Leaked US military files about the conflict in Afghanistan could contain details of "thousands" of war crimes, the man behind their release has said.
Working in a coordinated fashion with The Guardian, The New York Times and German weekly Der Spiegel, whistleblowing website WikiLeaks yesterday published tens of thousands of secret records giving a day-by-day account of Nato forces' operations from January 2004 to December 2009.
The military logs revealed new details about the extent of Afghan civilian casualties, a covert special forces unit targeting insurgent leaders, and concerns that Pakistani intelligence could be supporting the Taliban.
Wikileaks founder Julian Assange said yesterday he hoped the information in the files would be investigated and exposed as a deterrent to future human rights abuses.
He told a press conference in London: "It is up to a court to decide clearly whether something is in the end a crime.
"That said, on the face of it, there does appear to be evidence of war crimes in this material."
The UK, the US and Pakistan condemned the leak of 91,000 of the classified records, and military experts warned their release could endanger the 10,000 British forces serving in Afghanistan.
But Assange insisted he had considered and ruled out the risk of troops being harmed by the information in the files.
He said: "The revelation of abuse by the US and coalition forces may cause Afghans to be upset, and rightly so.
"If governments don't like populations being upset, they should treat them better, not conceal abuses that have been undertaken."
More than 75,000 of the files were published on WikiLeaks, which said it was delaying the release of the remaining 15,000 reports as part of a "harm minimisation process" but intended to put them out in full eventually when Afghanistan's security situation permitted.
The Guardian, the New York Times and Der Spiegel were given access to the material several weeks in advance to give them time to prepare their editorial.
The files include reports of operations carried out by a secret US Special Forces unit called Task Force 373 whose role was to kill or capture senior Taliban and al Qaida commanders.
The records also log a total of 144 incidents involving Afghan civilian casualties, in which 195 non-combatants died and 174 were injured, The Guardian reported.
These include at least 21 occasions in which British troops allegedly shot or bombed Afghan civilians, leading to the deaths of at least 26 people, among them 16 children, according to the newspaper.
The Ministry of Defence said it was looking into the veracity of the information in the files.
Other entries in the logs record unconfirmed intelligence that members of Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence spy agency secretly supported the Taliban.
Assange said the files were not about one single horrific event but the bigger picture of the conflict, now into its ninth year.
"The real story of this material is that it is war, it's one damn thing after another," he said.
"It's the continuous small events, the continuous deaths of children, insurgents, allied forces."
The campaigner claimed that the high level of civilian casualties reported in the files was in fact lower than the true figure because military personnel "downplayed" the number or reported them as insurgent deaths.
He added: "We would like to see the revelations that this material gives to be taken seriously, investigated by governments and new policies put in place as a result, if not prosecutions of those people who have committed abuses."
The White House criticised the "irresponsible" leak of the files, although it stressed that they dated from when George Bush was president.
General Jim Jones, president Barack Obama's national security adviser, said: "The United States strongly condemns the disclosure of classified information by individuals and organisations which could put the lives of Americans and our partners at risk, and threaten our national security."
A Downing Street spokeswoman added: "We would lament all unauthorised releases of classified material.
"The White House has made a statement. We will not comment on leaked documents."
A Ministry of Defence spokesman said: "Reducing the risk to local civilians has always formed an essential part of planning for all military operations carried out by UK forces and we always do our utmost to ensure that we shield the civilian population from violence during the course of any military activity.
"We are deeply saddened by any civilian deaths or injuries but we particularly regret incidents where civilians are killed as a result of actions by international forces."
Anti-war campaigners said the leaked documents confirmed everything they had been saying for years.
Lindsey German, convenor of the Stop The War Coalition, said: "The biggest ever wartime leaks show conclusively that the war in Afghanistan is pointless and unwinnable and the warmongers have lied to us continually.
"In this context, David Cameron's timetable of at least five more years of killing is tantamount to premeditated mass murder.
"British soldiers are being asked to kill and die in a war which is lost. They must come home now."

Research funding cutbacks could cost Houston millions
As the nation edges closer to the so-called fiscal cliff, tens of millions of dollars of research funding may be at stake for institutions in Houston and Galveston.
If Congress doesn't agree on a way to bring down the deficit by Jan. 2, the nation's budget will default next year to $1.2 trillion in cuts. As part of that, the National Institutes of Health could face a 10 percent decrease to its $30 billion budget, which has remained flat for 10 years. That would cost Houston millions in grant funding and hundreds of well-paying research-related jobs. It also would mean researchers will have to become more competitive in seeking grants and tap other sources of funding.
Before the prospect of cuts, NIH was already looking for ways to cut funding, said Adam Kuspa, vice president for research at Baylor College of Medicine. It was considering doling out fewer grants, cutting budgets and capping primary investigator salaries at about $179,000.
Baylor College of Medicine gets the most biomedical funds from the NIH pie in the state of Texas, and while about 60 percent of Baylor's research budget comes from the NIH, Kuspa said he isn't overly concerned with potential cuts. A 10 percent cut to NIH may translate into a 6 percent cut to Baylor's total research budget. For Baylor's 2011 fiscal year, it received about $245 million from NIH.
"If your faculty are competent enough to write good grants, then they will continue to get funded," Kuspa said.
But researchers would have to ask for more from sources such as the Cancer Prevention Research Institute of Texas, philanthropic donors and other independent federal and state agencies, to make up for the potential budget cuts, Kuspa said.
With Texas facing a $117 million loss from NIH if cutbacks go through, Mary Woolley, president of Alexandria, Va.-based Research America, said researchers will face global competition for funding from countries such as China, Germany and Singapore.
"All cities in the U.S. will be competing globally much more than they thought they would," Woolley said. "We don't want to end up in a race at the bottom. Other countries aren't waiting around for the U.S. to get its feet back on the ground in prioritizing research and development in bio research. Countries like China are making very high national priorities to invest dollars in driving science so it can be commercialized and bring in private-sector dollars."
America, on the other hand, has dedicated fewer dollars, with an estimated $4 billion less spent on biomedical and health research and development between fiscal year 2010 and 2011, according to Research America. Woolley said the downward trend will only become more exacerbated. NIH funding for institutions in Houston decreased to about $490 million in fiscal year 2012 from $500 million during the same period in 2011, according to NIH data.
While competition to a certain degree is a good thing, it can become disheartening, said George Stancel, executive vice president for academic and research affairs at The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston.
"Let's say 10 people will submit grants and five are really good, but only one gets awarded," he said. "That means the system is overly competitive."
If the NIH funding is cut, undergraduate institutions like University of Houston and Rice University will likely have more trouble sustaining their funds, Kuspa said, because, as institutions with smaller health science departments, they don't have as many people to write and compete for grants.
Vicki Colvin, vice provost for research at Rice University, said it receives about $15 million a year from NIH.
"When there's cuts, it's not like you can't buy new lab equipment — it's whether or not you can pay someone," Colvin said. "Our researchers are fully paid by the NIH and other sources of funding, and we're very committed to our employees and providing as much interim and bridge funding as possible."
While no one knows for sure how funding decreases may impact the grant process, Colvin said it's possible fewer than 10 percent of grants overall will be funded. Currently about 15 percent of approved grants are funded.
That might prompt people to pursue "safer" research, Stancel said.
"The most important questions are the things we know the least about," Stancel said. "The things we know the least about have an inherent risk in doing them. If someone doesn't take the scientific risk to answer the things we truly don't know, we won't get the bigger breakthroughs."

Howard's Thomas hired at Texas Tech as baseball assistant
Published 5:20 pm, Wednesday, June 20, 2012
Texas Tech head baseball coach Tim Tadlock hired the first assistant to his coaching staff on Wednesday with the addition of J-Bob Thomas, who will work primarily with the Red Raider catchers and assist with the team's hitters.
Thomas, 29, spent the previous seven seasons as the assistant coach and recruiting coordinator at Howard College.
During his time at Howard, Thomas helped turn the Hawks into the winningest Division I junior college program in the nation (247 wins - averaged 49 wins a season) while winning the NJCAA World Series in 2009 with an astonishing 63-1 overall record, which included a college baseball record 57-game win streak.
A graduate of Abilene Christian University in 2005 with a degree in mass communications, Thomas was a four-year all-conference catcher while beginning his career at Howard College before transferring to ACU and finishing his degree in four years.

Characters Discussed
(Great Characters in Literature)
Shinji Kubo
Shinji Kubo, a bashful eighteen-year-old fisherman. He is well built and sunburned, with clear, dark eyes. He is levelheaded for his age but is sometimes conscious of his poverty, especially when confronted with the wealth and social status of Hatsue, the young woman he loves. Before meeting her, he had led a peaceful, contented life. His only driving ambition in life, other than winning Hatsue's hand, is to acquire his own fishing boat and do coastal fishing with his younger brother. Basically unselfish and thoughtful, he has a "haphazard" respect for morality. When he finally gets a job on a fishing vessel, Shinji, unlike his rival, shows courage during a typhoon at sea and proves to himself that his own strength kept him safe through the perilous night. His efforts are rewarded: Despite an ugly rumor of Shinji having slept with his daughter, Hatsue's father relents and allows Shinji to court her.
Hatsue Miyata
Hatsue Miyata, the daughter of Terukichi Miyata, the wealthiest man on the island. Her three sisters left the family through marriage, but she was adopted out to another family. Later, however, her father decides that she should return and marry Yasuo Kawamoto. On returning, she finds that she prefers Shinji Kubo, even though there is little likelihood that he could provide the kind of life to which she has been accustomed. Hatsue herself, however, works hard. Her healthy, glowing skin and cheeks suggest a wholesome country girl. She is a kindred spirit to Shinji.
Yasuo Kawamoto
Yasuo Kawamoto, the son of a leading family in the village. He is Hatsue's suitor. Fat and red-complexioned, he seems both naïve and crafty. He knows how to make others follow him, and he takes pride in speaking with no trace of the local dialect. By the age of nineteen, he has become hypocritical. Something of a...

God bless the Super Bowl advert, a staple of American life and commerce that, if nothing else, serves as an annual reminder to the rest of the world that no one does anything bigger, better, bolder or more expensive than the good old US of A.
Want to sell a car? That will be £1.5m for a 30-second slot. The price is hefty but the appetite is strong. Yet corporate America falls over itself to spend the money, while the television audience awaits the first commercial break of the game with the hushed anticipation of a Derren Brown audience. Some people think the adverts are better than the game because they are shorter, more imaginative and funnier, although it is hard to believe anyone will be laughing on Sunday when the times comes to roll the slot promoting the message of a group called Focus on the Family.
As you probably guessed from the name, FotF will not be selling beer or car insurance. In fact, it will be selling anti-abortion. The commercial will feature a college athlete called Tim Tebow, who is famous for playing football, doing charity work overseas and pushing the message of Christian fundamentalism at every available opportunity.
Tebow never takes the field without the numerical reference of a biblical verse etched into his eye black. He never throws a touchdown without thanking the good lord above (who, of course, has nothing better to do than fulfil the sporting ambitions of his most ardent followers). He is proudly chaste, an advocate of "abstinence only" school of sex education and a creationist. In other words, he is a perfect fit for an outfit like Focus on the Family, which as well as peddling all of the above also likes to sell a virulent strain of homophobic intolerance. Here is what the group's founder, James Dobson, once had to say about people who are both gay and Christian: "Their sexual thoughts and feelings produce great waves of guilt accompanied by secret fears of divine retribution. They ask themselves, how could God love someone as vile as me?"
All of which begs the question: how could the US television network CBS, which will be broadcasting the game into 50 million homes, accommodate someone as vile as Dobson?
One reason is that while Focus on the Family is hateful, it is not stupid, which is why its advert will focus on Tebow's mother, Pam, who was living in the Philippines when her son was conceived and, shortly thereafter, contracted a disease requiring her to take medicines that endangered herself and her unborn child. Doctors recommended she have an abortion, which she rejected out of hand. Cue the tag line, whatever it is (no one has seen the advert yet so no one knows): Join Focus on the Family and you, too, can have a son who will one day become the most famous college athlete in the country, perhaps?
Another reason is that CBS has chosen to abandon the long-established policy of declining to broadcast adverts from "pro-advocacy" groups during the Super Bowl, saying only that it has a policy of ensuring "all ads, on all sides of an issue, are appropriate and fair". At this stage some might feel the urge to congratulate the network for standing up for freedom of speech, although before doing so they should be aware that while pocketing cash from the poisonous Mr Dobson, CBS also rejected for broadcast an advert submitted by the gay dating website ManCrunch.com.
Apparently, the mildly amusing ManCrunch slot, in which two men end up kissing each other during the Super Bowl, was deemed to be unsuitable. Unlike, say, the semi-pornographic beer adverts featuring bikini-clad women that have been have been a feature of Super Bowl broadcasts for as long as anyone can remember. Or the enduring spite of James Dobson and Focus on the Family.
Yet the wonder of all of this is not that there has been outrage at CBS's behaviour, but there has been so little outrage, which leads one to conclude that the thing the good old US of A does biggest and boldest of all on Super Bowl Sunday is double standards.
Zero tolerance the only answer for sorry racists
Sometimes sorry isn't enough, not even if you say it with flowers, as Sunderland fan John Davison discovered after being banned from football for three years following his conviction this week for racial abusing Shirley Bent, the mother of the Sunderland player Darren Bent.
We all know how imaginative racists are, so no doubt you can guess what Davison called Mrs Bent. Apparently, he and his mates found it hilarious, although the mood changed when security officials outside Wigan's ground got involved. Suddenly, Wearside's wittiest man became Wearside's most abjectly apologetic. He said sorry. And then he said it again. And then he promised to get a tattoo of Darren Bent on his arm. And then he sent Mrs Bent a letter, followed by a bunch of flowers.
Some magistrates might have listened to that litany of repentance and decided whatever guilt applied had to some extent been assuaged. Fortunately, no such lenient souls were on the bench at Wigan magistrates' court when Davison made his appearance. There is only one way to deal with football racists and that is with zero tolerance.
Why Parry's panacea will never come to pass
Credit to Rick Parry, whose government-ordered review of gambling in sport was published this week: he was not mealy-mouthed when it came to acknowledging the scale of the problem or found wanting when it came to offering up solutions, not least the establishment of a powerful, well-funded Sports Betting Intelligence Unit.
The only problem is that nothing will ever come of Parry's efforts, partly because of a lack of political will and partly because the very powerful UK gambling industry will resist any attempt to have it meet the cost of implementing the report's recommendations. What a pity.
Barely, a month or two passes without a major match-fixing scandal in Europe. Just before the turn of the year, the German authorities announced they were looking into 200 football matches. Before that Uefa announced it was investigating 40 games. Are we really being asked to believe that, like rabies, this curse is being held at bay by the stretch of water that divides Calais from Dover?
Mickelson a Master – even without that wedge
Those who run professional golf love a quiet life, which is why they hate a scandal. So you can imagine the consternation over the last few days after a PGA Tour nobody called Scott McCarron accused a PGA Tour somebody, Phil Mickelson, of cheating. The "scandal" revolves around the grooves of a golf club – a Ping Eye-2 wedge – being used by the world No2 and, as you might expect when the subject matter involves the technical specifications of a golf club, is somewhat esoteric.
Suffice to say, McCarron was in the wrong and has spent the last couple of days apologising. Mickelson, for all that he has done nothing wrong within the rules, has now decided to take the offending golf club out of his bag, lest he did something awful with it like win the Masters.
"I won't be playing that wedge," Mickelson said. "My point has been made." A PGA Tour review of the issue is pending.
Scandal over. It was fun while it lasted – at least it was to those who think it is about time professional golf stopped peddling this fiction of itself as morally superior and therefore better than other sports.

After the excitement of Tuesday's cracker at East Thurrock, the Rocks came back to earth with a disappointing defeat on a mudbath in Suffolk against a side who had failed to win in three months.
Two goals in the first half-hour settled it to condemn the Nyewood Lane side to their fourth defeat in five matches. They must now regroup ahead of Tuesday night's home Sussex Senior Cup quarter-final against Eastbourne Borough.
Craig Stoner had broken down in training on Thursday with a recurrence of his knee problem, which meant that although not fully fit himself, Nick Jordan continued in goal. Dan Beck was preferred to Jon Marzetti at right-back.
Unfortunately Bognor experienced the worst possible start when, after just five minutes, Kane Wills was dispossessed in midfield and surrendered the ball to the impressive John Sands, who advanced into the box and shot confidently into the corner of the net.
In the early stages Sands appeared to be Bury's danger man, and minutes later he was released by an excellent through-ball from Kennedy. His shot from the edge of the box flew just outside Jordan's left-hand post.
Craig Parker should have extended Bury's lead when tricky winger Warren Whitely presented him with a great opportunity just a few yards from goal, but his mishit shot allowed the Bognor defence to clear.
Bognor were struggling to create any cohesive football, and although Harvey Whyte did manage a strong shot on goal when he cut inside, the Bury defence stood firm and cleared the ball with ease.
Jordan had to be alert to race out of his goal to clear just ahead of the onrushing Sands, who had beaten the offside trap.
Just before the half-hour mark there was goalmouth action at both ends. Parker had a great header following a corner but powered it inches wide, and from the resulting goal-kick Bognor swept down field and should have made something of the good opportunity. Unfortunately Dan Thompson could not convert the chance, and Bury made the Rocks pay with their second goal a minute later.
Again this resulted from poor Bognor defending, with the ball spinning away from Dan Beck straight into the path of the impressive Sands, who had the easiest of chances to steer the ball goalwards.
Straight from the kick off it seemed Bognor would reduce the deficit. Wills released Whyte and his excellent cross found Thompson a yard out. Somehow he struck the bar when it seemed easier to score, and the chance was lost.
The visitors were now playing with more conviction and Whyte came so close but Marcus Garnham in the home goal made an excellent save. Thompson had an excellent run and his power when on the ball was clearly unnerving the home defenders, and in the last attack of the half Stuart Axten almost pulled one back following a corner.
Although Bognor were two goals adrift at the break, they had showed signs of recovery in the last ten minutes of the half, and continued to press in the second period.
With an hour played it appeared that their pressure had paid off when James Crane forced the ball home, only for a linesman's flag to disallow it for offside.
Whyte, who had another excellent game, brought a great save out of Garnham as he shot powerfully from 15 yards.
As Bognor pinned the home side back in their half there was always going to be the opportunity for a Bury breakaway, and with a quarter of an hour to go Jordan Patrick should have wrapped the points up when he was able to break clear. His shot was woefully wide however, and Bognor were able to resume their waves of attack on Garnham's goal.
Thompson and Axten both had good chances but their close-range headers were not strong enough to beat the home keeper, and then Whyte cut in from the left and outpaced two defenders before putting in a low cross from an acute angle.
The ball beat the keeper and then ran agonisingly along the full length of the goal line with no Bognor attacker able to get a touch on it.
Young Ollie Pearce, who came on as substitute, should perhaps have scored following a goalmouth melee, but the ball bobbled on the uneven pitch at the vital moment and the chance was lost.
Just before the end Pearce almost made amends with a superb shot from fully 30 yards which Garnham just managed to tip around the post.
The game ended with a flurry of Bognor corners, and again Thompson and Axten came close.
Unfortunately this was another edition of what is becoming an all-too-regular story, with occasional poor Rocks defending being punished by the opposition, followed by constant Bognor pressure and an inability to convert chances. However, supporters should take heart from the performance of many in what is still an injury-hit side.
Terry Dodd is available for selection on Tuesday and it is hoped that Louis John could return at the weekend.

Heck, I'd prefer it, it means I don't have to worry about any genetic surprises I might have passed on to my son - who is also IS BTW, moderate hypospadias with severe chordee.
Really bad chordee too, so genital reconstruction was needed before his gender became apparent, to avoid pain.
In many cases but not all, chordee is associated with hypospadias.
Violent erections are frequently experienced, as is also chordee, a condition in which the organ is drawn into the shape a bow during erections, a very painful and distressing condition.

The consoles are not supported to be in the shops until November 22 but it appears that some punters have had some surprise deliveries. One customer posted pictures of the console on Twitter and put a video on YouTube. Redmond responded by banning the user from his Xbox One until its launch on November 22.
At least three pre-orders have apparently been delivered early, with one briefly listed on eBay, according to Polygon.com. Microsoft admitted that a handful had been inadvertently shipped early.
A company spokesman said that it was all due to a retail partner's system issue. A very small number of Xbox One consoles were shipped to consumers before the 11/22 street date, the company admitted.

8 ways to safeguard your home during summer vacation
By Theo Thimou, clarkhoward.com
Summer vacation season is in full swing! Do you want to let criminals know you're not home? Of course not!
But the sad fact is that there are so many ways we let our guard down and make ourselves susceptible to criminals. Fortunately, there are some basic precautions you can take to safeguard yourself.
Make sure your home stays safe when you're away on vacation
1. Do not post post updates on Facebook and Twitter while you're away. Only post pictures from your vacation when you're back at home. You don't want to alert "friends" who may be anything but that when you're out of town.
2. Get automatic timers. These will pop your lights on and off at the appropriate times of day, deterring criminals and saving electricity at the same time.
3. Suspend delivery of mail and newspapers. You can also either have a friend or relative collect your mail while you're away, or you can put in a temporary stop at your local post office.
4. Make sure the doors to your home and car are locked. People let their guard down in this respect too often as the weather warms up. You don't want a crook to just help him or herself to your property.
5. Consider a DIY alarm system. Before you head out of town, take a look at SimpliSafe.com. Prices start at just $15 a month for monitoring on simple burglar alarm systems you install yourself. No technical know how is necessary! Read an extensive review of the service here.
6. Don't forget about the basics of home security. This article about 13 things a burglar won't tell you has some sobering reminders about the simple things we do that inadvertently invite burglars into our homes.
7. Change your lock before you go. The locks on your doors are one of the main entry points into your home. Consumer Reportsrecently surveyed nearly two dozen popular locks on the market. A trio of reasonably priced locks got the "recommended buy" mark from the magazine, including the Kwikset 980 ($30), the Baldwin Prestige 380 ($40) and the Falcon D241 ($55).
8. Get an easy-to-install security camera. The Arlo is a wireless camera system for indoor or outdoor use. And get this: It requires no electrical hookup! It uses lithium batteries instead, just like electric cars do. That makes installation a breeze, not to mention re-installation… if you want to move the cameras around on a whim! With prices starting at $179, these things aren't exactly cheap…but they could be well worth it.

'52 Faces' is a fun read
I love the "52 Faces" feature. Hats off to Chevron and the Reporter-Telegram for sponsoring it. With all the awful stuff that happens in the world today, it's easy to forget that there are lots of good people who want to help others when they can.
We have so many wonderfully kind and generous people right here in Midland. It's fun to read about one of them each week.
Trudie Thomason
Texting isn't the only distraction
The Reporter-Telegram seems determined to lobby for a texting-while-driving ban. While I personally see this as invasive and unenforceable, I do see a need for Midland drivers to be more aware while driving. With that in mind, I would like to propose that the Reporter-Telegram lobby for the following distractions to also be banned while driving in Midland: smoking, pets, flies, adjusting rear-view mirrors, adjusting the air conditioner/heater, operating the radio, eating, drinking, children, bumper stickers, operating GPS devices, pedestrians, other vehicles, dialing a cell phone, changing gas prices, traffic signals, stop signs, construction sites, panhandlers, Fill-the-Boot campaigns, the H-E-B parking lot and my personal favorite — people selling the Reporter-Telegram on street corners. Eliminating these distractions would make our roads much safer.
I hope you can read the sarcasm here. I would love to see safer driving in Midland, but if you want to ban distractions, why stop at texting?
Kevin Broome
Christians' rights slowly
being taken away
Christians are a minority in America. We are continuously being trampled on — from the city of Houston, where pastoral sermons have to be approved, to our federal government making same-sex marriage legal.
Now a Kentucky clerk has refused to issue a marriage license to a couple of the same sex. He was told to do it or resign. What happened to Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Were that Kentucky man's civil rights just thrown out the window?
The United States of American stands for freedom, or should. Where are Christians' freedoms and rights? We have the right to stand up for our beliefs, but they are slowly being taken away from us.
Remember 1 John 3:13 where we are told not to be surprised that the world hates us, and remember we have the kingdom of heaven in our future. Stand strong in Christ and firm in your beliefs, for we have a war in front of us.
Pam Floyd
Capt. Marcy deserves recognition
I recently was thumbing through John Howard Griffin's book "Land of the High Sky," which tells the history of Midland. It begins with the Marcy expedition of 1849 and is the only material I have ever read about this incident. As I reread Griffin's gripping narrative, I was once again deeply impressed by the skill and bravery of Capt. Randolph B. Marcy, as well as those with him, as they became the first white men to explore our area. The danger they faced is emphasized by the fact that one of the men, Lt. Montgomery Pike Harrison, a grandson of the ninth president of the United States, was killed by an Indian near Midland.
I do not recall being told or reading anything about Capt. Marcy's adventures in school or otherwise during my years growing up in Midland. So far as I know, there is no marker anywhere in our area to commemorate these magnificent and heroic adventurers. But we can remedy that. May I suggest that we name one of our new public works — perhaps a school or a park — after Capt. Marcy, and then seek a Texas historic marker to explain something of the life and work of this remarkable pioneer explorer and his associates.

Managing employee leaves is probably one of the more complex tasks a human resource professional performs. Working through the tangled web of workers' compensation leaves, FMLA leave, accommodation requests under the ADA requires intricate handling; or else it can expose the employer to significant risks. A company's own internal policies, short term/long term leave has been made even more complicated with recent amendments and liberal court interpretations. One false move can land you in court with a claim for back pay, compensatory and punitive damages. These claims always have the potential for significant damages as the employee needing leave is always a sympathetic plaintiff.
Stay on top of various leave issues – from how worker's compensation leave applies to these recent regulatory changes to the latest definitions of "disability" under the ADA, and more— in this riveting 90-minute On Demand session with Susan Desmond.

The Balkan war waged from 1992 to 1995 and left over 2.2 million displaced, destroying the land and the hearts of the people of former Yugoslavia. Although over 2.2 million people fled the violence, only over a million have been able to return -- conditions in the war-torn areas remain heartbreaking.
Jolie took a quick break from shooting The Tourist on Easter Sunday so she could meet with refugees in the rundown collective centers of Gorazde and Rogatica. Jolie also chatted with two families in a ravaged village near Visegrad.
Pitt and Jolie travelled together, but did split up for a bit while Pitt met with local Bosnian men, while Jolie connected with the local women. While the conditions felt hopeless, and locals shared stories of abuse, rape and torture -- Jolie was moved by the strength of those she encountered.
"Despite the grim realities of their unsettled existence, they have an incredible determination to make a better future for their children," Jolie told the UN Refugee Agency.
Jolie also met with UNHCR to discuss proposals to help resolve the situation of those still displaced over a decade and a half after the war. "I cannot overemphasize the need to focus on the wellbeing of the most vulnerable individuals of the population," Jolie said. "By ending displacement and ensuring quality of life, we can help to promote progress and long-term stability."
Having ducked out from filming with Johnny Depp to make this visit, Jolie was forced to cut things short and get back to her day job on the set of The Tourist.
Word is she hopes, "to return to this beautiful country soon and meet with political representatives to further discuss the solutions that are so badly required."

Submission + - UK charme offensive to extend copyright protection
benesch writes: "An ageing UK star lineup tries to charm parliament into exending copyright protection of their songs: "Sir Paul McCartney and Sir Cliff Richard are among the artists who will see the current 50-year limit on their early sound recordings expire soon. The House of Commons culture committee said people had a "moral right" to keep control of their creations while alive. The copyright term for sound recordings should be extended to at least 70 years, the committee recommended. That would allow ageing performers to continue to benefit from their early recordings throughout their lifetimes.""

New York Yankees 1 — Detroit Tigers 8 The Yankees season comes to an end in tonight's 8-1 loss to the Detroit Tigers. CC Sabathia took the mound in tonight's potential elimination game. The Yankees ace was not able to give the Yankees a quality effort. Sabathia's start didn't go well from the beginning when Delmon Young got the Tigers an early 1-0 lead in the 1st inning with a run- scoring single to right field. The 3rd inning was a difficult inning for Sabathia as a usually reliable defensive player made a pair of poor plays. First baseman Mark Teixeira is known for having Gold Glove-caliber defense but a single by Prince Fielder took a bad hop that Teixeira couldn't handle. Then with 2 on, a ground ball was hit to Teixeira again and he was unable to handle it either and was charged with an error. A run would score on the following at-bat when rookie outfielder Avisail Garcia hit a soft ground ball to center field. The 4th inning would be the last inning for CC Sabathia. Triple Crown winner Miguel Cabrera connected for a two-run home run to left field, his first of this postseason. Jhonny Peralta would also go deep for a two-run home run. After a double, Sabathia would exit the game after 3.2 innings of work. Sabathia gave up 6 runs on 11 hits including the 2 home runs he gave up in the 4-run 4th inning. The Yankees bullpen would give up 2 more runs on a pair of home runs. Former Yankee Austin Jackson would go deep and Jhonny Peralta would hit his second home run of the night. The Detroit Tigers send Max Scherzer to the mound and he pitched an outstanding game. The Yankees couldn't handle the repertoire of Scherzer as he struck out 9 through the first 5 innings. The Yankees would get their first hit when Eduardo Nunez would hit a triple to deep left center. Nick Swisher would hit a double to right field to bring in the Yankees lone run of the game. After Mark Teixeira walked, Scherzer's night would end and left-hander Drew Smyly would pitch. With a left-hander on the mound, Alex Rodriguez pinch-hit for Raul Ibanez in a run-scoring opportunity as there were runners on the corners as the Yankees made an attempt at cutting down the 6-run lead. Rodriguez would fly out to center field to end the inning and continue his struggles. The Yankees would not put together another threat through the remainder of the game as they would be swept by the Tigers. Win – Max Scherzer (1-0) Loss – CC Sabathia (0-1) Notables Yankees *Nick Swisher – 1 for 4, 2B, RBI (1) *Eduardo Nunez – 1 for 3, R, 3B Tigers *Jhonny Peralta – 2 for 5, 2 R, 2 HRs (2; 2-Run & Solo) in the 4th & 8th inning, 3 RBI (3) *Miguel Cabrera – 1 for 5, R, 2-Run Home Run (1) in the 4th, 2 RBI (4) Current series: Tigers win series 4-0.

Students Interact with Endangered Wildlife in New Century College Class
Posted: May 20, 2003 at 1:00 am, Last Updated: November 30, -0001 at 12:00 am
While many college students were off enjoying leisure and sunshine during spring break, 21 George Mason graduate and undergraduate students spent the week at the National Zoo's Conservation and Research Center (CRC) in Front Royal, Va., learning what it takes to save an endangered species.
The students were participants in Conserving Endangered Species: An Integrative Approach, a New Century College (NCC) course offered this spring and team taught by Mason faculty members Tom Wood and Andrew Wingfield and CRC researcher Katherine Christen. Students were able to live and study at CRC, one of the world's premier endangered species research facilities, where they could try out a number of laboratory and field techniques. Several CRC researchers lent their expertise and taught units during the weeklong course.
Using hands-on, problem-driven modules, students focused on the conservation of the Eld's deer (Cervis eldi) of Southeast Asia, working alongside the researchers who do this for a living. About the size of the white-tailed deer that are so populous in Virginia, Eld's deer have reddish brown coats and lyre-shaped antlers. A national study in 1998 estimated that fewer than 1,200 deer remained in Myanmar (formerly Burma). About 50 Eld's deer live at the CRC's 3,100-acre Virginia facility.
"In the course, we want students to focus on different aspects of the same problem," says Wood. "This approach provides them with a more holistic look. We also want them to see the value of the group process–no one has ever implemented a conservation program solo."
Wood is the impetus behind Mason's partnership with CRC. As a graduate student at Mason, he spent several years working at the center and knows the grounds and facilities better than anyone. His ultimate goal is to have a George Mason House "on center," as they call it, where graduate students would live while working there. Currently, a number of researchers live in small houses on center, and a few graduate students from George Mason's Environmental Science and Policy program work there.
Students taking a New Century College course on endangered species tackled field work during spring break.
During the spring break week, wildlife biologist and CRC researcher Bill McShea led the students through field work for his unit on Large Mammal Census and Survey Techniques. Students trapped a native white-tailed deer and put a radio collar on it so they could track its movements. Then they were dropped off at various points throughout the center to conduct a field survey of the white-tailed deer population.
Students were organized into groups, with one person to follow the trail, one to count their paces as a measure of distance, and the third to count deer. Wood and Wingfield drove back and forth across the facility in a van picking up the groups as they emerged from the woods. According to the students' reports, snowfall made walking difficult and everyone had trouble staying with his or her specific tasks. Some groups didn't see any deer; one group maintained they saw the same deer, one with a slight limp, over and over again.
"Then your data are bad," McShea told them when they reconvened in their makeshift classroom/computer lab/dining hall. They could only count the lame deer once. McShea wanted them to understand how difficult it is to collect good data. If it were not an exercise, they would need to go back and get more data.
Then McShea helped the groups enter data into a computer model that could help extrapolate the total number of deer. After lunch, the group joined Peter Leimgruber, a CRC researcher, for a crash course in map making and reading.
"All maps are a lie," Leimgruber told the group. When looking at a map, he urged them to think about two things: "what do you know about this map and what information is not included. Sometimes what is more interesting is what is not on the map."
The students also learned about MMUs (minimum mapping units), DEMs (digital elevation models), and "bleeding polygons." GIS and remote sensing–mapping using imagery acquired either from aircraft or satellite–have become important tools in the management of natural resources. The students were set in front of computers and immersed in ArcView mapmaking software. Lab assistants helped students see how data, such as those they collected in the morning, could be translated into visual formats.
In other units, the group got an overview of cryopreservation methods and discussed the conservation history, politics, and culture in Myanmar, particularly as they relate to the Eld's deer population. The course gave students the opportunity to not only gain insight into the natural science perspective, which usually is the only viewpoint presented in conservation courses, but also to view the problem from a humanities and social science perspective. At the end of the week, the students presented a Population Habitat Viability Analysis (PHVA), offering their insights into the conservation of the Eld's deer.
"You can talk to students all you want about the complexity of conservation work and the need for interdisciplinary approaches to saving endangered species," says Wingfield. "But in a course like this, students experience the complexity and the rewards of integrative work firsthand, which is so much more effective. New Century College's motto is 'connecting the classroom with the world.' Our partnership with CRC helps students make this connection. This is a powerful learning environment."

Pardon me if this has been posted previoulsy. I sometimes go quite a spell between visits to the "Crick".
Rockler - I've had backorders on my last three orders with Rockler and on the most recent order I got a notice that my backorder was now extended yet another 4 weeks! Now, I understand an occasional backorder but IMHO this is getting to be very inconvenient.
Bottom line... if you don't have it... don't advertise it!
I'm disappointed because I like the on-line store. Have others experienced the same or have I just been ordering the "wrong" stuff?

Now let us turn to the 18th chapter of Matthew's gospel and the 3rd verse. We will start at the 1st verse: "At the same time came the disciples unto Jesus, saying, Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven? And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them, and said, Verily I say unto you, Except [you] be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven" [verses 1-3].
About a year ago it was my privilege to be the guest of General Mark Clark at The Citadel. We were walking across the campus where I was to address the cadets at The Citadel. A cadet came up to me in his uniform and said, "Mr. Graham, you are not going to let us down, are you?" I said, "What do you mean?" He said, "You are going to tell us how to be converted, aren't you?" I went into that chapel service with that on my mind and my heart.
I want to tell you tonight what I believe God wants you to do--the first step that He wants you to take, the encounter that He wants you to have.
What about this word "conversion" which we read about in this passage? The disciples came to Jesus and said, "Who is going to be first in your kingdom?" Jesus had already said, "He that will be first must be last" [see Mark 10:31]. The requirement for entrance into heaven is true humility; not a false piety, but a true, genuine humility. It is the requirement that recognizes our need and our sin, and the greatness and the majesty of God, and a willingness to receive Christ as Savior.
So to illustrate the point, Jesus called a little child to Him and said, "Look at this little child--how trusting this little child is, how humble this child is. Before you can get to heaven, you will have to become converted like a little child. In other words, you will almost have to go back to your childhood," said Jesus. "You will have to go back to your childhood. And with that same simplicity, that same humility, that same dependence that a little child has in his parents, you will need to have in God," said Jesus.
Now a lot of people today are confused about this word "conversion." But everybody else is using it today, and I don't see why we can't use it in 1958 as Jesus used it in the first century. Everybody is using it.
The advertisers are using it. Why, they are trying to get us to be converted from one type of soap to another on television all the time. I do not know how women make up their mind about the best perfume to use. It is difficult to make up your mind about an auto-
mobile. You do not know what kind to buy because all the advertisers have such attractive advertising to convert us to their product.
Finance uses it in exchanging from one type of security to another. Forestry uses it in exchanging from one type of forest to another. Law uses it in exchange of property from one nature of property to another nature of property. Mathematics uses it in exchange of propositions and equations. The military is using it in conversion of standard weapons to nuclear weapons. Everybody's using it.
And what good is this definition--from one position or direction to another, the passing from one side to another? In other words, conversion is simply the change in which you are going in one direction in your life, and then you start in a totally different direction. That is the simple meaning of conversion. It means to turn around. It means to change.
A Chicago psychologist once said, "This generation needs converting more than any generation in history." A famous British psychologist recently said, "We are so psychologically constituted as to need converting, and if the church fails to convert people, we psychologists are going to have to do it." In other words, even psychology is recognizing the need that man has to be converted.
The question I want to ask you tonight is: Have you been converted? The Bible teaches that you must be converted to enter heaven. The psychologist teaches that you must be converted in order to get the most out of life. The question I want to ask is: Have you been converted to Jesus Christ? Do you know it? Are you sure of it?
A famous movie star wrote the other day, after she had been married the third time. She said, "I desperately hope I find happiness this time." What she needed was converting. She needed change in her life. Have you been converted?
Johnny Spence, whose testimony you heard tonight, has been converted. He has been changed. He has turned around in the way he used to live. He is now a new person. Has that happened to you? If not, it could happen to you right now, before you leave here.
Conversion is taught all the way through the Bible. Ezekiel 36:26 says this: "A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you: and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you an heart of flesh." In other words, God is saying through Ezekiel, "I can give you a new heart."
Now, the "heart" all the way through the Scriptures stands for the seat of the soul--your ego, your intelligence. The seat of your emotions is said to be in the heart. God says, "I'll take out the old heart and put in a new heart." God never patches anybody up. He never does it partially. He always performs a complete process of regeneration. And conversion means you get a new nature, you get a new heart. Have you received a new nature?
Jesus calls conversion in the gospel being born again [see John 3:7], repenting of sin [see Luke 13:3], entering a narrow gate [see Luke 13:24], and many other expressions. Call it anything you like. Call it dedication. Call it surrender. Call it conversion. Call it repentance. Call it grace. Call it anything you like. Have you had this encounter with Christ? Peter calls it in Acts repenting and being converted [see Acts 3:19]. Paul speaks of it in Romans as being alive from the dead [see Romans 6:13]. In 2 Corinthians 5:17, the verse that Johnny Spence quoted, "If any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new."
In Ephesians, Paul speaks of it as quickening, or being made alive from the dead [see 2:1]. In Colossians, Paul calls it a putting off of the old man with his deeds and "[putting] on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him" [see 3:10].
In Titus, he calls it "the washing of regeneration, and [the] renewing of the Holy [Spirit]" [3:5]. In Peter, the apostle says being made "partakers of the divine nature" [2 Peter 1:4]. In the Epistle of John, he calls it passing "from death unto life" [see 1 John 3:14].
If you pick up a Church of England catechism, it reads this way: "A death unto sin, and a new birth unto righteousness." The Bible teaches it, the church teaches it--that you must be converted for the forgiveness of your sins.
The Bible says all of us have sinned [see Romans 3:23]. You might not have done all the sins that Emory Harper did, but you are a sinner and I am a sinner. We have all come short of the glory of God. We have all failed to meet God's law requirements. Every one of us has told a lie sometime, somewhere. Every one of us has had lust in our hearts sometime, somewhere. We have sinned against God, and this sin has come between us and God. And this sin causes death--physical death, spiritual death, and eternal death. That means separation from God--hell and judgment.
Now the greatest thing in life is to find forgiveness of sin. We only have a few years here. The Bible says that our lives are spent as a tale that is told [see Psalms 90:9]. The Bible says that our lives pass quicker than a weaver's shuttle [see Job 7:6]. The Bible says that it is only a shadow [see Job 8:9]. The Bible says that it is like the flower; it blooms and fades [see 1 Peter 1:24]. Our life passes so quickly that it is soon gone. God gives us a few days, a few months, a few years to find one thing--and that is forgiveness. That is the greatest thing in life, worth more than a million dollars. That is worth more than a business empire. That is worth more than a glamorous career. That is worth more than an education. That is worth more than anything. To be forgiven of sin! God says the only way that you can be forgiven of your sins and to escape the judgment of hell is to be converted!
Secondly, you need to be converted for your acceptance by God. Because, you see, just as you are now, God cannot accept you. Why, with your present evil nature, if you went to heaven, it would be hell to you.
Suppose you went to heaven as you are. You don't enjoy a prayer service down here on earth. You don't even enjoy a church service. You go because it is a duty, something you have always done. It is traditional, but you do not particularly like to go to church. You do not particularly like to be with God's people. You do not like to read the Bible. You do not like to worship God. Why, you would be miserable in heaven, because that is all they are going to do up there! We will be worshiping God day and night. And if you could not stand that for an hour down here, you would be squirming. You would surely be in hell after the first three or four hours of being in heaven. So you don't want to go to heaven with your present nature. You see, with your present nature not changed by the power of Christ, you would be out of place up there.
Somebody asked Billy Sunday, the evangelist of several years ago, "Mr. Sunday, do you think that they will chew tobacco in heaven?" He said, "They may chew tobacco in heaven, but they will go to hell to spit." I don't know about that. But I do know that until your nature is changed, until you have been converted to God, you would be out of place up there.
Now you are a sinner. You have offended God. The Bible speaks of us as enemies of God [see Romans 5:10]. We have broken the laws of God. We deserve judgment, and we are going to get judgment.
Somebody said, "Well, all I'm asking for is justice." No, I am not asking for justice, because if I were to get justice, I would go to hell. I am not asking for justice. I want God's mercy. And I see it in Jesus Christ's death on the cross when He shed His blood for my sins. I see in His death--the love of God, the mercy of God, the grace of God extended toward me. And when I come and by faith receive His Son, I am said to be converted and changed. And God comes into my life. A new life comes in. I have become a partaker of the divine nature. And in that moment I am said to be justified, just as if I had never sinned.
In other words, God does not only forgive us; God places us back in the position that Adam was, but even higher than Adam. [See Romans 5:9.] We are justified as though we had never committed a sin, so that even God forgets our sin [see Hebrews 10:17]. We need to be converted for entrance into heaven. Jesus said, "Except ye be converted, ye shall not enter into heaven." I did not say it; Jesus said it. Do you think Jesus was lying? You haven't been converted? Then you will not get to heaven. That is what Jesus said.
You say, "Oh, we will make it somehow, for God is a wonderful God. He is a God of love, and He is a God of mercy. Certainly, He is going to get us there." Yes, He is a God of mercy, He is a God of love--"not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance" [2 Peter 3:9]. God is not only mercy, not only love and grace; God is judgment. And the wrath of God shall be poured out upon men who are outside of Christ [see Ephesians 5:6].
Would you enter heaven today? Suppose you dropped dead right where you are, would you enter the kingdom of heaven? Where would you go? Are you sure? How many of you know that you will be alive tomorrow? Not one person here! [See James 4:14.] Are you willing to gamble the next twenty-four hours, to gamble on the fact that you will live?
I believe every person in this building is counting on being in heaven. You are counting on being saved. You are counting on being received by God into heaven. Yet you have not even done what God said are the basic requirements of entrance into the kingdom. I tell you the Bible says there is going to be a place of weeping and wailing and gnashing of teeth. There will be a place of outer darkness. [See Matthew 8:12; 13:42.] There will be a place of judgment. And Jesus said no one will enter the kingdom who has not been converted.
You say, "Well, Billy, what is involved in conversion? What is conversion?" Well, first there must be repentance. What does repentance mean? Repentance means to change your mind, to change your feelings, to change your purpose, to change your conduct. It is intellectual, it is emotional, it is volitional. It means that I look at my sins, and I'm willing to say to God, "I am a sinner."
I talked to a man today. And before I could get a word in edgewise, he was telling me how good he was, how much he had given away, what he was doing for other people. All of that is fine, but that does not merit your salvation. The Bible says that all our righteousness is as filthy rags in the sight of God [see Isaiah 64:6]. You can obey the Golden Rule and still not be in the kingdom of God. Nicodemus was as fine a Pharisee as ever lived. He kept the law. But Jesus said, "Nicodemus, you need to be born again." [See John 3:1-7.]A rich young ruler had kept all the commandments, but Jesus said, "If you want to enter heaven, one thing you lack. You must admit that you are a sinner." [See Mark 10:17-22.] Are you willing to admit that tonight? Intellectually you will say, "I am a sinner," recognize you are a sinner. And if you ever get a vision of God--who He is and what He is--you will fall down and say, "O God, I am a sinner."
Do you know how God calls you a sinner, and how He compares you? He does not compare you with other people. Oh, you may be better than ninety percent of the people in Charlotte. God compares you to Jesus. He compares you with His Son. And there is not a person here who can stand up and say, "I'm as good as Jesus." If you come short of Jesus, you are a sinner. You must recognize that. You must acknowledge it.
And then there is a change of feeling. You know, it's a strange thing today that people don't want any emotion in religion. I never tell a deathbed story. I never tell a story to try and work on people emotionally. I think that is wrong. I think that it is deceitful on the part of the evangelist or the preacher to deliberately work on the emotions of people. Having said that, I agree with Dr. W. E. Sangster, the great Methodist preacher of London. Dr. Sangster said some time ago in his lectures at Emory University, "Anybody that will go to a football game and shout, and anybody that will go to a baseball game and yell, 'Kill the umpire,' and then say you should never have any emotion in religion, that man does not deserve any attention whatsoever."
Isn't it a strange thing that we can sit in front of a television set and go through all the emotional experiences of Lucy? We can sit in front of the television set and bite our fingernails off watching some drama. When the baseball game is on and we are watching the World Series, we are sitting there with all the emotions. And you can hear the people in the background shouting. But in church, if you shed a tear or even smile or have any emotion or any feeling, you are suspect immediately. No wonder Dr. John Mackay, the president of Princeton Seminary, speaking to the students on the opening day of school last year, said, "Nazism had fire, communism has fire; and the church must catch fire."
We need some fire in our churches today. I don't mean shouting. I don't even mean yelling "Amen." I mean that expectancy, that enthusiasm, that urgency, that fervor, which the early church had. They had seen a risen Savior. They went out to tell the world about it--like Johnny Spence, who has only been a Christian fourteen weeks and he wants to tell the world. You have been a Christian for years, and you don't want to tell anybody. That is the difference.
There is sorrow for sin. And every night we see people coming here, shedding a few tears. Thank God for tears! We have too few tears over sin today. We have tears about everything else, but not very many tears over sin. The Bible says, "Godly sorrow worketh repentance" [2 Corinthians 7:10].
Then there is a change of purpose involved in repentance. It means that I turn from sin. You may not have power to turn from your sins. Not all conversions are dramatic like Johnny Spence or Emory Harper. Some may have battles with these things even after conversion. I have seen it time after time. But there must be a willingness in the weakest heart to turn from sin. You must be willing. God does not say you have to turn; He says you must be willing. And, if you are willing, He will help you turn.
Then there must be a change of conduct. Old things must pass away, and behold, all things must become new [see 2 Corinthians 5:17]. Jesus said, "By their fruits ye shall know them" [Matthew 7:20]. If I see a man who is going on living habitually in sin, I know that man has never been converted. He does not have a new nature. He may look like a Christian at times.
You can take a pig, give him a bath, put a ribbon on him, dress him up, put a little Chanel No. 5 on him, polish his hoofs a little bit, take him in the living room, and put him in a chair. He looks like a wonderful clean hog. You say, "Why, this hog is changed. This is a different pig." You open the door, and then see what happens. The nature of the pig has never been changed, and the pig runs right to the mud puddle. That is where he belongs.
Now, take some of you people on Sunday morning. You dress up and put a little halo on your head, and you go to church and sit down and look like a saint. Everybody says, "Isn't he a fine upstanding citizen." While you are watching the preacher, you are thinking about "Gunsmoke" the night before. You reach in your pocket, and you pull out a fifty-cent piece. You flip it into the pan, just like you give God a tip. You say, "Lord, here you are. Here is your tip for the week." You get out of church, shake hands with the minister, go home, take the halo off, take your wings off, pick up your pitchfork, and the horns begin to grow again. No change has taken place.
Now, any change that God makes in your life is a permanent change! Old things pass away; your life is different. A change takes place when you come to Christ, and God brings about this tremendous transformation that we call the new birth.
Then, secondly, not only is it repentance, but faith and a belief. And this word "faith" means more than just believe. I hear a lot of people go around and say, "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved" [Acts 16:31]. That's true, but you don't know what the word "believe" means. The word "believe" just doesn't get over to us in English. That word "believe" means more than just intellectual faith. Because the Bible says the devil believes [see James 2:19]. Why, the devil is the fundamentalist! He is orthodox! He believes in the Bible. He believes the whole business. Intellectually, he believes in the dogma, he believes in the creed. But the devil has never been saved, and he is not going to heaven. You can pronounce the creed, and on Sunday morning you can recite the Apostles' Creed through without making a mistake. But, I tell you, that is not enough. There must be a real commitment to Christ. There must be a complete surrender to Christ.
Have you done that? Have you come with everything you have and allowed Him to change your life in full surrender? I come to the cross; and I say, "Jesus is my Savior, and He is my own Savior. I am trusting in Him, and Him alone, for salvation. I am not trusting in anything or anybody but Christ. By faith, I surrender to Him. I am willing to obey Him, and follow Him from this moment on."
Now, involved in faith is not only head belief and heart belief, but it is your will. You must be willing to say, "I will receive Christ." Christ appeals to the will of men. Jesus said, "Ye will not come to me, that ye might have life" [John 5:40]. Jesus didn't say, "You couldn't come." He said, "Ye will not come."
You will not come. There are hundreds of you that ought to come and give your life to Christ. But Jesus says, "Ye will not come." You are not willing for your will to be surrendered to the will of Christ. Jesus said, "If ye are not willing to confess me before men, I will not confess you before my Father which is in heaven" [see Matthew 10:32,33]. You will not. You put up a barrier. Your will will not bend to Him. "If any man will come after me," said Jesus [Matthew 16:24].
Now, the moment that you come to Christ by repentance and by faith, God in a miraculous and glorious way changes your life. He forgives all the past. He gives you a new nature. He gives you new values, and new motives, and a new direction for your life. He puts a smile on your face, and a spring in your step, and joy in your soul. Now, He does not remove your problems. In fact, I think after you come to Christ you may face more problems. But in the midst of your problems there will be peace, and grace, and strength, and a new dimension for living.
Have you been converted? Are you sure of it? If you are not certain tonight, I beg of you to come.
In the late eighteenth century, William Wilberforce was converted, and almost single-handedly broke the shackles of slavery in England. On November 29, 1785, he was converted. And he wrote in his diary these words: "I am wretched, miserable, blind, and naked. What infinite love that Christ should die to save such a sinner as me." And that night Wilberforce, only twenty-three years of age, gave his life to Christ and changed the whole course of history.
You are going to build a new Y.M.C.A. here in Charlotte. I hope it is one of the most beautiful in the South. Charlotte deserves it. And I hope all of us will get behind it. But how many of you know the origin of the Y.M.C.A.? Who founded it? In the latter part of the nineteenth century, George Williams was converted in England's west country. He later wrote how he knelt down at the back of an empty shop and said, "I cannot describe to you the joy and peace which flowed into my soul when first I saw that the Lord Jesus had died for my sins, and that they were all forgiven."
I tell you, when you come to Christ--I do not care when it is, I do not care where it is, how it is--when you come, you will have to come by repentance and faith, trusting in Him and His death and resurrection alone for salvation. If you haven't come, if you haven't met Christ there, I am asking you to do it tonight.
You may be a member of the church. You may be a choir member. You may be an usher here. You may be a Sunday school teacher. But you are not sure that you have actually met Christ and been converted. You want to be sure, and you want to settle it. I am going to ask you to get up out of your seat and come here and say, "Tonight I will receive Him. I will repent. I will give my life to Christ."

Gretchen Wieners is one the greatest pop-culture teens of all time. (We're sure her father, the inventor of Toaster Strudel, would at least agree.) But what has Lacey Chabert, the actress who played the iconic character, been up to since Mean Girls hit theaters in 2004? It turns out, quite a lot!
While Chabert's first claim to fame was playing Claudia Salinger on Party of Five, it was her portrayal of the queen of The Plastics' right hand girl, Gretchen, that catapulted her name into a cult-classic. After all, Gretchen coined the phrase, "that is so fetch," and even though she tried and failed to make fetch happen in the movie, we use it all the time, so her Mean Girls success definitely lives on!
After playing the brunette high school student, the 34-year-old actress alternated between TV and film gigs. For starters Chabert played Gwen Stacey on The Spectacular Spider-Man series and acted alongside Mathew McConaughey and Jennifer Garner in the Ghosts of Girlfriends Past.
She's voiced Meg Griffen and Jan Brady on numerous episodes of Family Guy and was the voice of Zatanna Zatara on the TV series, Young Justice from 2012 to 2013. In 2013, Chabert also landed a recurring role as Dr. Amy Shaw on Freeform's Baby Daddy in addition to acting in a few TV movies.
Chabert's biggest voice role on an animated series has been on Cartoon Network's Transformers: Rescue Bots. She's been voicing Dani Burns — among other characters — since 2011, which is pretty impressive. Plus in 2016, she began working on both Kulipari: An Army of Frogs and Shimmer and Shine.
Over the past few years however, Chabert has become a Hallmark staple. She has starred in a ton of their holiday-specific TV movies including, A Royal Christmas, Family for Christmas, A Christmas Melody and the upcoming holiday romance movie, A Wish for Christmas. In case you were unsure, Chabert knows how to make a Christmas movie!
Which Mean Girls star do you want to know more about? Have you seen Chabert in anything since her high school flick?

Mark Bohanan — owner and executive chef of Bohanan's Prime Steaks & Seafood, and visionary behind San Antonio Cocktail Conference — presented a check today for $75,000 to HeartGift San Antonio, which is the main beneficiary of the conference. The inaugural conference in 2012 raised $57,000.
HeartGift San Antonio provides lifesaving surgeries for children from disadvantaged countries. The money raised from the four-day craft cocktails and spirits conference held Jan. 17-20 will allow HeartGift to provide surgery for three children.
"The second annual San Antonio Cocktail Conference proved to be a bigger success than any of us could have dreamed of," said Chef Mark Bohanan in a press release. "We are so lucky to have had the support of countless partners, presenters and attendees. Without their generous contributions, this donation simply would not have been possible. HeartGift San Antonio is the motivation behind the Cocktail Conference, and we are thrilled to provide such a significant contribution to HeartGift San Antonio on behalf of the conference. As a family man and father, I cannot think of a better way to give back and make a difference."

Sept. 24, 2012
It is my pleasure to announce that Aimee Turner has accepted the position of Associate Vice President (AVP) and University Controller, beginning her Cornell career on October 17, 2012. As Anne Shapiro prepares to retire in December, Aimee will overlap service in this position, providing leadership for the financial accounting operations of the University. During Aimee's first year, she will be focusing on continued improvements to the Kuali Financial System's user experience and working to effect more efficient processes and policies while maintaining the integrity of internal controls.
After our rigorous nationwide search, I am very pleased that Aimee was chosen for this position and confident that we have hired a creative and energetic leader. Aimee, who comes from the J. Craig Venter Institute, where she served as Chief Financial Officer/Treasurer, has spent over 20 years in the not-for-profit research sector.

A Certified Public Accountant, Aimee is a member of the following associations: Maryland Association of Certified Public Accountants, National Grants Management Association, Association of Independent Research Institutes, and National Council of University Research Administrators.
This announcement would not be complete if I did not express my appreciation to Anne Shapiro, who currently serves as University Controller, having been with the university for almost 20 years. Anne leaves a legacy as a leader with selfless dedication to Cornell. She is noted nationally for her tax expertise, financial wisdom, energy and vibrant personality. Anne is a team player, respected by anyone who has ever worked with her. As you join me in welcoming Aimee to Cornell, please also recognize Anne and wish her a long, happy and fulfilling retirement.
