Always the same, always different. That's how Ocean City is viewed by many tourists. When you visit here you get the best of the old and the new.

I'm very pleased. City of Heroes is now free-to-play, and it runs on my wife's computer. This is good news because it runs very poorly on my aging laptop. Looks like I'll be making my way back to Paragon City and the Rogue Isles once again. Woot! I've updated the "Game With Me!" page with the servers I play on.
My main character is a fire blaster called Godslave. I don't roleplay on CoH, but I do like to write backstories for my characters. Here's his:
Appropriately, the next XLM Bible Study will be entitled Holiness is a Superpower. We talked about the power of the cross this month; next month, we'll talk about the power of the Holy Spirit to make us new. Access to divine wisdom. Superhuman endurance. Hellfire immunity.
We'll also talk about what steals our power. Superheroes have weaknesses, and we're no different.
If you're on City of Heroes, feel free to chat! And if you'd like to attend the Bible Study, keep an eye on the Facebook page. We'd be glad to have you.
Why the Cross is the Most Epic Thing Ever
This last Saturday was the first Extra Life Ministries Bible Study. We're off to a good start.
We spent about forty minutes talking about — as you may have caught in the title — why the cross is the most epic thing ever. I've posted my notes below, after the link to the recording.
After the study, we shared some lunch and hung out. I can heartily recommend Safeway-brand frozen lasagna, by the way.
Plans are already underway for next month's study. We're gonna try to have it in a local comic book shop. The lesson, I'm thinking, is gonna be about how holiness is practically a superpower. More details to come.
Until then, thank you so much to everyone who came on Saturday, and everyone else who follows XLM as it develops into what God made it to be. Here's our first Bible study.
Why the Cross is the Most Epic Thing Ever (.mp3)
We say things all the time like "Jesus died for your sins." We call Him the "lamb of God." We sing songs like "The Wonderful Cross." All of Christianity seems focused around this one event: the death of Jesus Christ on the cross. It's a big deal. And today, I want to talk about why.
XLM Bible Study!
You're invited to the inaugural Extra Life Ministries Bible Study! We'll discuss a Biblical topic for about 45 minutes, then have lunch and hang out. Questions are very welcome.
This week: Why the Cross is the Most Epic Event in All History.
There's a reason Christians make such a big deal about the cross. It's the central event of our religion. Without it, nothing else we preach about really matters. But even beyond that? It's pure genius.
Come join us!

On Friday's broadcast of "MSNBC Live," MSNBC Political Analyst Jonathan Alter argued against Senator Tom Cotton's (R-AR) statement that President Obama has been "the most anti-Israel president in American history" by pointing to the Iran nuclear deal and other policies.
Alter said that it wasn't true to say Obama was the most anti-Israel president in US history "because there's been more aid under President Obama than any other president. He has stood up for Israel repeatedly when it's been attacked. … On top that, you have the nuclear deal with Iran, which, according to Israeli intelligence senior officers, former head of Mossad and Shin Bet, is in the national security interest of Israel, because it helps protect Israel, which would likely have been the first target of an Iranian nuclear attack, and they now can't do anything for at least ten years."

On the thirty-first of January, JASCD welcomed Gabriel Rshaid to the New Sanno Hotel for an inspiring day of professional development. Mr. Rshaid's workshop focused on numerous currently valued practices such as creating 21st century schools, understanding big data, and enabling student voice and choice in a Maker's school.
Mr. Rshaid workshop was highly engaging as he led participants through experiential collaborative learning using various online tools. Attendees gained insight into how online forums, such as a Wordpress blog, could be used to enhance student learning. A strong focus was placed on using technology for learning rather than teaching as Mr Rshaid guided participants to a new understanding of what being an educator entails in the knowledge era.
Administrators and educators from schools around Tokyo appreciated the experience of learning collaboratively and sharing strong practices. The feedback from the workshop highlighted the tremendous impact Mr. Rshaid had on attendees:
JASCD is thankful for the opportunity to provide such relevant and inspirational professional development to the professional teaching community of Japan. We look forward to our upcoming Spring Conference on the seventh of March at the New Sanno Hotel. JASCD will host Elizabeth Ross Hubbell on using technology with research-based instructional strategies. Register today to guarantee your spot!

Supermarket Chain Becomes Latest Breach Victim
Aug. 18, 2014
A company that runs a network of affiliated supermarkets across the country said late last week it discovered its data security system had been breached exposing the payment-card information of an unknown number of customers. AB Acquisitions operates more than 1,000 stores in 29 states including ACME, Albertsons, Amigos, Jewel-Osco, Lucky, Market Street, Shaws, Star Market, Super Saver and United Supermarkets. The company said the breach occurred on or after June 22, 2014 and ended on or before July 17, 2014. SUPERVALU, the company which used to own Albertsons and continues to provide it with IT services, said its stores were also affected by the breach. SUPERVALU brands include Cub Foods, Farm Fresh, Hornbacher's, Shop 'n Save and Shoppers Food & Pharmacy.
While card-not-present merchants are bracing for a post-EMV world , investigative journalist Brian Krebs provided some insight on why, from a perspective of potentially experiencing a data-security breach, it's better, at the moment, to be an online retailer:
"Credit and debit cards stolen from bricks-and-mortar stores (called 'dumps') usually sell for at least ten times the price of cards stolen from online merchants (referred to in the underground as 'CVVs' or just 'credit cards'). As a result, dumps are highly prized by today's cyber crooks," Krebs wrote on Friday. "A big part of the price difference has to do with the number of steps it takes for the people buying these stolen cards (a.k.a. "carders") to 'cash out' or gain value from the stolen cards."

Today I will give my review on the very popular Naturabest Garcinia Cambogia V-caps supplement. This product, in my opinion, is one of the best weight loss supplements in 2017 so far.
This post isn't going to be too long. But will contain enough information for you to get the core of the message. Let's get to it.
How Much Does It Cost?
This is the big question most people consider before buying anything. With this supplement unlike others, I've seen it's actually not costly at all.
As of right now the time I wrote this post. It is going for $19.50 on Amazon. That is great for what it does and has to offer. A wonderful deal for sure. Amazon runs sales all the time. So if you're lucky you might catch it on there for even cheaper.
Where Is It Made?
It is made in the USA. It is also made in an FDA approved facility. If you cared to know that much. Some don't but then you have that other bunch. Yea those people. No that was not a typo.
Not that there is anything wrong with being concerned with what you take into your body. But some people go a bit overboard with the whole ordeal.
What's In It?
From my understanding, it has a fruit extract in it from southeast Asia. It is all natural and that's the best part. We live in a world today. That nothing is what it once was.
All kind of stuff is put into our food and drinks. Which is why you have hospitals slammed packed all year round every year and also why you have pharmaceutical companies bringing in billions each year.
Because you have everyone relying on doctors to keep them alive and healthy. Instead of taking the initiative and doing it themselves.
But don't get me started on that. Because this post would literally never end. Any who back to the moral or this post.
What Does Naturabest Garcinia Cambogia V-caps Do?
Many people don't know this. But I will let it be known in this post. If your body does not use carbohydrates as an energy source it will turn into fat.
Which is where you get fat cells from. Yes, that is a thing. Naturabest Garcinia Cambogia V-caps stops that from happening. At the same time turning fat into glycogen.
Making them an instant source of energy for your body to use. Those are just a few of the many things this excellent supplement has to offer.
Top 10 Reasons You Should Buy Naturabest Garcinia Cambogia
- Inhibits Conversion Of Calories Into Fat
- Fat Blocker
- Boosts Metabolism
- Appetite Suppressant
- Proven To Increase Serotonin Levels
- Improves Lipid Profile
- Shown To Lower Cholesterol Levels
- Reduces Stress
- Increase Serotonin Levels
- Improves Immune Function
These are only ten reasons. This just like green tea has an astonishing track record of healthy ingredients. I still drink this today. Accompanied with warm apple cider vinegar.
I have basically given you the forefront on this product and what it is about. But I'll leave it up to you to go and check it out for yourself. Just look at the reviews on it. Junk supplements don't get over 900+ reviews.
Now that you have the bike. I'm going to take the training wheels off and let you ride by yourself.

It can be hard for an individual that is seeking to acquire a new bed to choose which kind is the best choice. There are a lot of to select from: a latex mattress, memory foam, inner-spring mattresses, water beds and lots of others.

Inner-spring mattresses will last approximately 10 years. To lengthen the life they can be adored to protect against drooping. 3 leading makers are Sealy, Serta and Simmons. A queen size embeded in any one of these leading brand names will cost around $399.
A memory foam mattress or mattress topper contours the body and is likewise an choice that needs to be considered by individuals that have throbbing joints or experience neck and back pain. A foam mattress topper can be acquired and put over any kind of sort of mattress or a mattress made largely of foam. Today memory foam is used in nearly all kinds of bed linen: inner-spring mattresses, pocket sprung mattresses, futon beds and electrical flexible beds. It really feels somewhat just like waterbed in the way it forms to the body. It heats up to the body's very own temperature and keeps the warmth and some individuals may find it unpleasant to sleep on. A regular memory foam mattress will last 15 years and should be adored periodically. You can buy 8″ complete size Memory Foam Mattress for under $300 and 10″ complete size under $400. You can also find high quality mattresses like the Revere Bed at http://www.amerisleep.ca/revere-bed.html.
A latex mattress is an extremely sturdy mattress. They do not should be transformed or turned like mattresses comprised of other products. There are different kinds of latex mattresses offered which enable an individual trying to find a new mattress to pick the one that best fulfills their needs. Different foam thickness will provide different mattress firmness levels.

Latex mattress can last for 30 years or even more. It stands up better than various other beds however it has the price of $2000 and even more.

Windows 7 crashes is one of the major problem. The system crashes randomly - right after login, in the middle of playing a game, while working on a file, during web surfing, among others. Some users call this fault the "black screen of death" (BSOD) where the screen of their computer will turn to black and eventually crash. The Windows 7 crash can be very frustrating, but there are ways to fix the problem.
1. Upgrade your memory or RAM. All software installed in your computer requires a certain amount of RAM in order to run properly. Besides these applications, your OS requires resources to run. To let these applications run smoothly without the crashing, free up some space or upgrade your memory.
2. Remove Spyware and Viruses. Make sure to always perform a scan to check for spyware and virus infections. There may be hidden and dormant malware in your computer. Delete these malicious files from your system. Always keep your computer updated with the latest virus definitions and security updates.
3. Fix Windows 7 Registry. The registry is a database which stores records of all your computer's activities. It contains settings and options that Windows continually references during operation. Over time, more and more data are added into the registry making it congested with redundant entries. These entries are no longer valid thus causing crashes especially in newer operating systems like Windows 7.

"Don't sit TOO CLOSE to the T.V. - You'll go BLIND"
We've heard them all. The things we are TOLD and the THREATS that are made to keep us FROM HAVING FUN.
Well, I have some news for everyone. I have DISCOVERED some new ones. Things we are TOLD- that are just NOT TRUE.... according to Katie Tyler.
Recently I GAVE UP DIET COKE- well Soda in GENERAL. Until the other night I couldn't REMEMBER the LAST SODA I had. I did this because the Caffeine gives me headaches- and I think it might be bad for me. But SECRETLY I was also thinking of all of the RUMORS I heard that SODA makes you GAIN WEIGHT or at LEAST RETAIN WEIGHT. I have heard the MYTHS of people LOSING WEIGHT just by QUITING SODA! So- I eagerly LOOKED FORWARD to this ADDED BONUS.
I have also (per my 90 day goals) recently GIVEN UP TREATS. Or at least SIGNIFICANTLY CUT THEM BACK. I went from DAILY CANDY/ICE CREAM and Bi-Weekly BAKING EXTRAVAGANZAS to ONE TREAT PER WEEK. This has been EXCRUCIATINGLY DIFFICULT to me (apparently I was addicted to yummy stuff physically as well as emotionally--we can talk about me crying in my pillow at night, drinking glass after glass of water, and finally chewing gum to get rid of the hole in my heart and the cravings another time). But I have been fairly successful. (passing up CUPCAKES??? yep) I did this because I had HEARD SOMEWEHRE that TREATS are BAD FOR YOU!
I have been going to the Gym almost DAILY for months- almost a year now. So long that people are starting to REALIZE I WEAR the same GYM CLOTHES ALL THE TIME! (ok, no one has said anything -- but I know you all notice) I have been rotating between cardio and weights. I have even worked with a Trainer (who laughs at my scrawny muscles- but I don't mind because they ARE wimpy... but I can TIE Darcy in an Arm Wrestle- so there) I even SWEAT at the GYM and even grunt sometimes like that really buff guy that always swears and throws the weights down when he is done.. I don't swear though. Now- let's clear this up-- I am NOT GOING TO THE GYM to LOSE WEIGHT. Apparently this is ALSO an addiction (like the treats) where the more I go - the BETTER I FEEL! I feel HAPPY after the Gym, Patient with my kids, more Organized with my time, all around better. BUT I HAVE HEARD that EXCERCISE HELPS YOU LOSE WEIGHT! So once again- I ASSUMED this would be an added BONUS!
Now some of you are annoyed right now with me- complaining about WEIGHT... sorry. Some of you are considering writing a nice comment about how good I look... thanks- but you don't stand behind me on the scale (like MEN always do at the Gym-- don't they KNOW that number is PERSONAL?? Why do they stand so close??) The rest of you think I am just plain CRAZY because 6 pounds is not a BIG DEAL... BUT 6 LBS on a 5'3" body- in just 3 months- WHILE giving up SODA, SWEETS, and WORKING OUT IS a BIG DEAL! UUGGHHH!!
SO I am here to say that ALL of those things Jillian says on Biggest Loser is a LIE.
From NOW ON- Katie Tyler DRINKS WHATEVER I WANT (ok, still no DIET COKE because it really DOES give me HEADACHES), EATS SWEETS WHENEVER I WANT (ok, AFTER the 90 day goals- because I am too proud to admit failure on one of my personal goals) and WORKS OUT STRICTLY FOR FUN!!!(ok ,I guess I was already doing that)
Ok, then, FOR STARTERS I am EATING A PAN of My Little Sister Beth's DELICIOUS Puff Pastry CINNAMON ROLLS while SITTING TOO CLOSE to the T.V. and MAKING a SILLY FACE!

I have, on two totally separate occasions, stopped consuming soft drinks for a 3-month period with the same weight loss goal. One word: false.ReplyDelete
I completely agree with you. I should give up diet coke, but not because it "contributes to weight gain." Point me to whatever study you want - I'll show you two clinical trials wherein this theory was debunked for my "body type."
In conclusion, don't buy an official Red Ryder, carbine action, 200-shot range model air rifle because you'll shoot your eye out. It's a fact.
I think everyone is conspiring against me. My sister-in-law is saying that she discovered that an IUD can make it harder to lose weight. You're saying all those things you listed don't necessarily make you lose weight. I think eventually I'm gonna just have to be happy with all this extra blubber. . . . or you know, actually work to get it off. That sucks.ReplyDelete
Right on sista! Preach it. I tried the no coke thing, it does nothing. My motto is everything in moderation, eat or drink whatever you want, just don't go crazy and you will be fine. Let me know when your 90 days is up, I will bring you over some treats. ;)ReplyDelete
Yay Katie! (sweet addicts love company)ReplyDelete
It is definitely a lie when you think the 3 wrong things together will make you lose weight. All those things mean nothing if you're consuming too many calories. I lost 7 pounds in one month eating no sweets, but it wouldn't have done anything if I hadn't counted calories, too. And there have been so many times in my life where I work out every day but nothing happens, it's because it's not going to work by itself! The soda thing I totally agree with because I always drink diet while I'm dieting and it never stops me from losing weight.ReplyDelete
Why isn't anyone telling you how strong you must be if you are able to TIE Darcy in an arm wrestle?ReplyDelete
p.s. Can I come over and eat some of your little sister's Puff Pastry cinnamon rolls and sit too close to the T.V. with you? That's my kind of fun! I will probably hold off on the making a silly face, because what if that ends up being true?
Now along with the Cinnamon Rolls I must EAT MY WORDS...ReplyDelete
Although I am inexplicably gaining weight- I DO FEEL BETTER from giving up sweets and soda and going to the gym. This was expecially OBVIOUS today when I woke up to go RUNNING and could hardly MOVE because I felt so icky from my Cinnamon Roll Hang Over!! I never believed people when they said that they actually FEEL BETTER when they eat better! (I thought that was LIE #4!)
did not mean to write eXpecially - but it is too cool to editReplyDelete
i am totally picturing the training montage from rocky right now. katie tyler runs to the top of the steps--triumph!ReplyDelete
i haven't heard the soda thing--even diet soda? because if you're drinking a lot of regular soda with lots of calories and sugar, i can see that making a difference. i don't know about diet, though.
hang in there for the ninety day goals and then we can eat something chocolatey together! i'm dying over here!
I gave up all carbonated beverages also (as a new years resolution). Not for the goal of weight loss, but for the goal of gaining control over my worldly appetites; although I am convinced there are health benefits to not drinking soda. FACT #1: I hear sex leads to babies (name the movie).ReplyDelete

The insatiable SUV niche is plagued with every kind of models with numberless features. But currently, one of the best entry-level SUVs was created by Ford.
The 2016 Escape is arguably the most entertaining SUV to drive. It's agile and with tons of power. Indeed, it does not drive like an SUV instead as a sedan. The exterior is modern with an aggressive and sporty look. The interior is dotted with upscale materials, acceptable cutting-edge features and with the same contemporary base as the exterior.
Of course, a powerful engine often translates into an awful fuel efficiency. However, thanks to the Escape's turbocharged engines, it achieves a surprising rate in fuel efficiency.
Ford is well-known for improving year by year its lineup. In outgoing models of the Escape, people complained about the terrible experience using MyFord infotainment system. Now the car maker has taken the bull by the horns and replaced it with the new Sync 3 by Blackberry.

Let's review this athletic SUV.
Powerplants and Performance
The 2016 Escape is offered in three engine variants. All engines are equipped with a six-speed automatic transmission and front-wheel-drive system as standard while the S trim is available with the all-wheel-drive system.
On the S trim, a standard a 2.5-liter four-cylinder is available producing 168 horsepower and 170 lb-ft of torque. Fortunately, the fuel efficiency is excellent for SUV and it is rated at 22 mpg in city and 31 mpg on the highway.
Meantime, SE and Titanium come standard with a turbocharged 1.6-Liter four-cylinder that cranks out 178 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque. For a standard engine, this SUV is faster than the average model in its segment, sprinting from standstill to 60 mph in 8.7 seconds. The fuel efficiency drops slightly at 26 mpg combined with the front-wheel-drive system and 25 mpg combined with an all-wheel-drive system.
The fastest engine is optional on the SE and Titanium trim. A 2.0-Liter turbocharged four-cylinder can produce 240 horsepower and 270 lb-ft of torque. The performance is excellent and probably the best of its class, sprinting from standstill to 60 mph in 7 seconds straight. The fuel economy remains at 25 mpg combined with FWD and 23 mpg combined with AWD.
The Performance is exhilarating without any doubt and the fuel efficiency is insane. But the Escape is not only fast. It's a beast in term of handling, similar to its sporty little brother, the Focus. Also, the Escape is capable of towing 4,500 pounds.
Exterior Beauty and Interior
The exterior is brilliant, with sharp lines and seductive curves. It is a really attractive car from any point of view. The HID headlights and dual chrome exhaust pipes along with 19-inch wheels are the most striking features of its aesthetic.
The same intrepid and modern concept was brought into the interior. The Escape's cockpit is comfortable but, at first, a little bit overwhelming. Thanks to its new infotainment, the problem that Escape had in the past is solved. While the front seats are extremely comfortable and roomy enough, the rear and the cargo space don't. It's a little bit tiny compared with other rivals.
In cutting-edge features, the Escape is also a winner. Features as a moonroof, a Sony Audio System, cruise function and controls on the steering wheel, Ford's self-parking, leather seats, and no-touch liftgate are available in higher trims.
The Bottom Line: Is it for me?
This car is for you if you are looking for a balanced car in every single feature. It has an entertaining performance and drive experience, with an impressive fuel economy backing it up.
This car is not for you if you are looking for a lot of space in either cargo space or back row. Also, the Escape doesn't count with a third-row and the Off-road capabilities are not the best of its segment.
Starting price at US$23,100.

The Energy Equation
Understanding the energy equation and learning how to balance it is the most important concept you can learn when youre trying to lose weight. When it comes to reviewing weight loss programs if they dont take into consideration this basic formula they wont work. Youd be surprised how many diets dont even get the basics right. So let us first look at the concept of energy and then see where many diets fall short.
Understanding Energy
Throughout this chapter we will constantly be referring to the word energy and so at this point it is important that you learn to understand the word energy as a physics term (ie the energy required to power the body).
There are a couple of different methods of measuring energy, some refer to kilojoules and others calories, regardless of what unit of energy you use as long as youre consistent it wont matter.
Now dont be scared at this point and think that were going to have you counting your daily calorie intake - we wont, in fact at the end of this chapter well have taught you enough so that you dont have to. However, understanding energy and the implications it has on your weight is the single most important concept you can learn if you are trying to lose weight.
Given that Calories is a more globally excepted term, throughout this website we will predominately refer to Calories. However for the benefit of our readers whenever we provide practical examples well use both Calories and Kilojoules side by side so that you dont have to make the conversion. If for education purposes you do want to know the difference between kilojoules and calories, this link will open in a new window and you can return here when youre done.
Now that you understand energy as a physics term, it should not be associated the feeling of being energised. That is, adding Calories to your diet does not necessarily mean that you will feel more energetic, if this were the case marathon runners would be drinking cooking oil and eating cheese before their race. If youve ever eaten a large portion of cheese (which is a very high energy food) before I can assure you that running a marathon is the last thing on your mind, instead it makes you feel tired. Well come back and explain why later in this chapter, for now we simple want you to understand that eating high energy foods dont necessarily make you feel more energetic.
Weight Loss Tip
Adding Calories (energy) to your diet does not mean it will make you feel more energetic, it may have the opposite effect and cause lethargy.
Weight Loss Formula
The energy equation is a simple formula that is found in just about every nutrition and exercise physiology text book that has ever been written. So its not a new concept and it is endorsed by all major governing health bodies across the world, surely they cant all be wrong!
If youre already familiar with how balancing this energy formula can help you to achieve your weight loss goals, take your time to learn a fresh perspective. Please dont fall into the trap of skipping through the pages without reading them first as you could easily miss an important concept.
The bodys energy equation is simply a balancing act of
Energy In
vs Energy Out and is stated as follows:
Change in Stored Energy = Energy Intake - Energy Expenditure
All this talk about energy might confuse some readers so lets break it down so that its easy to understand. To start with it is important to understand that body fat is simply a form of stored energy. Naturally if you consume more Calories in your diet than what you burn throughout the day, the excess calories have to go somewhere and subsequently they are stored as body fat.
Given that body fat is just a form of stored Calories we can rewrite the equation to meet the needs of our readers.
Change in Body Fat = Calorie Input - Calorie Output
One of the easiest ways to explain the energy equation is the set of scales analogy featured below.
Balancing the Energy Equation
The problem arises when we eat more Calories than we burn. As a result the energy equation is positively balanced and the Calorie surplus is stored in the form of body fat (ie if we consume more Calories than we burn the excess Calories get stored as fat and body fat increases).
The good news is the opposite is also true, if you burn more Calories than you consume, the equation is negatively balance which means that your body has to get the extra Calories from somewhere and so naturally you tap into your reserves (body fat) and the end result is body fat decreases.
To achieve your weight loss goal you must simply balance this proven weight loss formula in your favour. This is not a new concept to most people who have tried to lose weight before, but from here on in, it is important to consider that the way in which you alter the equation can have a significant impact on the long term results.
Firstly, lets turn our attention towards the diet side of the equation and learn how
improving your energy input (diet) can balance the energy equation in your favour such that you get results.
