Kane rescues draw for England against Scotland in qualifying
No it isn't but the change of events is remarkable", he added. But with only a minute left of injury time captain Harry Kane saved England's unbeaten qualifying record with a cool finish as the game eneded 2-2. " Scotland is no easy place to come". "The first free-kick was careless, the second (given away) was a slip, so I am not sure there is a lot we could have done about that".

For many high school seniors, "Pomp and Circumstance" starts playing in our heads the minute we step foot in the door for our senior year of high school. Cut to winter break, and even more of us will be slipping into a "senior slump," counting down the days until graduation. While finally receiving your diploma is an awesomely satisfying experience, it does come at a price. Check out some of the reasons you might want to slow down and savor your last few months of high school life.
1. You have a little room for academic mistakes.
It's Friday, you're in your last class of the day, and really just ready for the weekend to begin. Too bad your teacher has other plans, and evilly begins handing out pop quizzes! Whether it's a test you're not prepared for, or an assignment you forgot to do, little mistakes like these happen to everyone, and usually aren't a big deal –- if you have some wiggle room with your grade.
Grades in college are different than they are in high school. While your senior year civics class might consist of lots of small 10-point assignments, quizzes and homework points, in college, that grade will most likely be the result of two or three test scores, and the occasional paper or two. That safety net? Not so roomy anymore. Every assignment counts.
Jessica Salerno, a junior at Ohio University advises, "You can't brush off bad grades in college. If you retake a class because you didn't feel like studying the first time around, that could easily cost upwards of a thousand bucks. "
2. You're finally on top!
Senior year is your last chance to soak in all the fun parts of high school you've enjoyed since freshman year with added top-dog status. Flaunt that seniority and enjoy being a starting member of your school's varsity volleyball team, going after that lead role in the musical, cheering your heart out for the football and basketball teams, getting outrageously pepped up during spirit weeks, and soaking in as much school spirit as you can stand. Because once you start college, you'll be back at the bottom again…
3. Senior year also means prom!
Admit it: being a good big sis wasn't the only reason you watched Disney's Prom last spring. Whether it's the thrill of being asked (or doing the asking yourself!), picking the perfect dress, or getting glammed up on the big day, prom is the perfect end to your senior year.
One of the coolest things about prom is there's no "right" way to do it. Even if you don't have a boyfriend or date, go with a group of friends and enjoy the evening. It really is one of those once-in-a-lifetime events. Besides, when else will you get to wear a floor-length ball gown in a totally crazy color that you'll be sure to laugh about many years later?
4. You're in a much smaller setting.
At this point in your school career, you're probably fairly comfortable with your classmates, and know them pretty well. Take advantage of those relationships with one another, and with the teachers as well, since it may not be the case at school next year. Unless you're planning on going to a smaller school, most universities have at least a few large lecture classes where the professor won't know your name unless you make a point to visit during office hours, and you may not have many (or any) friends in class with you.
If you don't understand something, ask for an alternate explanation. Use small classes to form study groups for finals, or to work on class projects. And as always, don't be afraid to use your teachers as more than a simple college reference. Most high school teachers are far easier to communicate with face-to-face than college professors will be next year. As an added bonus, you don't have to trek halfway across a huge campus to meet with a high school teacher either!
5. You get to see your best friends every day.
Erica Avesian, a junior at the University of Michigan says keeping in touch with close friends and talking every day is one of the things she misses the most about high school. "Now that we all go to separate colleges and have our own busy schedules, it's hard to keep the friendships as strong as they once were," she said.
Skype and text messaging make staying in touch easier and way more convenient, but they're not as personal. Take advantage of each other's close proximity, and make a strong effort to create fun, lasting memories that you can carry with you to college. Don't forget the camera for photos to hang all over the dorm!

Amazon.com is previewing a new home page redesign with some of their users (in the exciting world of springing jarring changes onto the users of unreasonably large web sites, this is known as 'bucket-testing'). You might not see the changes when you go to Amazon unless they put your account in the test bucket.
I'm not wild about the changes. I like the navigational tabs on top, where they used to be, instead of off to the side. To accommodate this, they made the new design much too wide (about 250 pixels wider than their previous design, I'd estimate — I had to resize my browser so I could see the whole page). The "TV Month" promo also takes up way too much space and the "What Do Customers Buy" widget is out of place on the home page (it should really only appear on a product page, since "What Do Customers Buy" is intended to provide an alternative to a specific product you're looking at).

Film by Ilaria Lupo, 2013, Antwerp; 62'
Tuesday May 6, 2014; 8pm
Private Colloquies on a Public Sculpture was produced in the frame of De Sokkel #5, a temporary art project for an empty 19th century plinth in the Central Park of Antwerp. Lupo involved the Indian Community, settled in the area because of the diamonds' trade.
The Making of De Sokkel #5 narrates the adventurous story of the project, surrounded by intense debates concerning the specific context, the nature of monuments, cultural identity, collective representations and artistic freedom in the public space.
Along with the screening, the artist book Private Colloquies on a Public Sculpture will be presented
Ilaria Lupo is a Beirut-based visual artist, whose public space practice includes different media, such as performance, installations, publications. Lupo's work aims to put into question official narratives and social boundaries. In her research the space itself becomes the actual material of work, considered as an organic platform, where the energetic interactions play a major role, and influence the work as they can be influenced by it.
The project was supported by The Middelheim Museum and AIR Antwerpen.

kernel boot freezes unless acpi=off
Last modified: 2007-11-30 17:11:34 EST
Description of problem:
The boot process freezes after having outputed the following line:

kernel 2.6.16.x
How reproducible:
Expected results:
Additional info:
Hardware: ASUS Laptop S1300N
The same hardware had no ACPI problems in Fedora Core 4 with kernels < 2.6.16.
The FC-4 update kernels (>= 2.6.16) also have the same ACPI problems (boot freezes).
Right now the laptop has FC-5 but has ACPI disabled. To have ACPI (and sound
snd-intel8x0) I have to boot with a FC-4 kerel (< 2.6.16). Right now I use the
kernel 2.6.15-1.1833_FC4.
Is there a simple way to migrate the ACPI info from the FC-4 kernel into one
FC-5 kernel?
Created attachment 130111 [details]

Could you pass the full dmesg for the kernel that fails?
Also, could you try booting FC5 with 'nolapic' or 'noapic' bootup parameters?

To Remove Tartar from the Teeth
1st. The use of the tooth-brush night and morning, and, at least, rinsing the mouth after every meal at which animal food is taken. 2nd. Once daily run the brush lightly two or three times over soap, then dip it in salt, and with it clean the teeth, working the brush up and down rather than–or as well as–backwards and forwards. This is a cheap, safe, and effectual dentrifice. 3rd. Eat freely of common cress, the sort used with mustard, under the name of small salad; it must be eaten with salt only. If thus used two or three days in succession it will effectually loosen tartar, even of long standing. The same effect is produced, though perhaps not in an equal degree, by eating strawberries and raspberries, especially the former. A leaf of common green sage rubbed on the teeth is useful both in cleansing and polishing, and probably many other common vegetable productions also.

Macassar Oil for the Hair
Renowned for the past fifty years, is as follows: Take a quarter of an ounce of the chippings of alkanet root, tie this in a bit of coarse muslin and put it in a bottle containing eight ounces of sweet oil; cover it to keep out the dust; let it stand several days; add to this sixty drops of tincture of cantharides, ten drops of oil of rose, neroli and lemon each sixty drops; let it stand one week and you will have one of the most powerful stimulants for the growth of the hair ever known.
Another:–To a pint of strong sage tea, a pint of bay rum and a quarter of an ounce of the tincture of cantharides, add an ounce of castor oil and a teaspoonful of rose, or other perfume. Shake well before applying to the hair, as the oil will not mix.

Sir Thomas Gower's Metheglin for Health
First boil the water and scum it; Then to 12 Gallons put 6 handfuls of Sweet-bryar-leaves, of Sweet-marjoram, Rosemary, Thyme, of each one a handful: Flowers of Marigold, Borrage, Bugloss, Sage, each two handfuls. Boil all together very gently, till a third waste. To eight Gallons of this put two Gallons of pure honey, and boil them till the Liquor bear an Egge, the breadth of threepence or a Groat, together with such spices as you like (bruised, but not beaten) an ounce of all is sufficient.
You must observe carefully. 1. Before you set the Liquor to boil, to cause a lusty Servant (his Arms well washed) to mix the honey and water together, labouring it with his hands at least an hour without intermission. 2. That when it begins to boil fast, you take away part of the fire, so as it may boil slowly, and the scum and dross go all to one side, the other remaining clear. When you take it off, let none of the liquor go away with the dross. 3. When you take it from the fire, let it settle well, before it be tunned into the vessel, wherein you mean to keep it: and when it comes near the bottom, let it be taken carefully from the sediment, with a thin Dish, so as nothing be put into the vessel, but what is clear. 4. Stop it very close (when it is set in the place, where it must remain) cover it with a cloth, upon which some handfuls of Bay-salt and Salpeter is laid, and over that lay clay, and a Turf. 5. Put into it, when you stop it, some New-laid-eggs in number proportionable to the bigness of the vessel, Shell's unbroken. Six Eggs to about sixteen Gallons. The whole Egg-shell and all will be entirely consumed.

Thieves' Vinegar
Take a large handful of lavender blossoms, and the same quantity of sage, mint, rue, wormwood and rosemary. Chop and mix them well. Put them into a jar, with half an ounce of camphor that has been dissolved in a little alcohol, and pour in three quarts of strong clear vinegar. Keep the jar for two or three weeks in the hot sun, and at night plunge it into a box of heated sand. Afterwards strain and bottle the liquid, putting into each bottle a clove of garlic sliced. To have it very clear, after it has been bottled for a week, you should pour it off carefully from the sediment, and filter it through blotting paper. Then wash the bottles, and return the vinegar to them. It should be kept very tightly corked. It is used for sprinkling about in sick-rooms; and also in close damp oppressive weather. Inhaling the odour from a small bottle will frequently prevent faintness in a crowd.
It is best to make it in June.
This vinegar is so called from an old tradition, that during the prevalence of the plague in London the composition was invented by four thieves, who found it a preservative from contagion; and were by that means enabled to remain in the city and exercise their profession to great advantage, after most of the inhabitants had fled.

Putrid Sore Throat
Mix one gill of strong apple vinegar, cue tablespoonful of common salt, tablespoonful of strained honey, half a pod of red pepper; boil them together; strain into half a pint of strong sage tea. In severe cases give half a teaspoonful for an adult every hour; decrease the dose as the disease is relieved. Use some as a gargle.

For the Teeth
A very agreeable dentifrice is made from an ounce of myrrh in fine powder, and a little powdered green sage, mixed with two spoonfuls of honey. The teeth should be washed with it every night and morning. Spite of all that is said against it, charcoal holds the highest place as a tooth-powder. It has the property, too, of opposing putrefaction, and destroying vices of the gums. It is most conveniently used when made into paste with honey.

An Indispensable Powder
A trouble scarcely to be named among refined persons is profuse perspiration, which ruins clothing and comfort alike. For this it is recommended to bathe frequently, putting into the water a cold infusion of rosemary, sage or thyme, and afterward dust the under-garments with a mixture of two and a half drachms of camphor, four ounces of orris-root, and sixteen ounces of starch, the whole reduced to impalpable powder. Tie it in a coarse muslin bag, (or one made of flannel is better if you wish to use it on the flesh,) and shake it over the clothes. This makes a very fine bathing powder.

Orthognathic surgery is sometimes called "Surgical Orthodontics" because, just as an orthodontist repositions teeth, an oral and maxillofacial surgeon uses orthognathic surgery to reposition one or both jaws. Just as "orthodontics" means "straight teeth", "orthognathic" means "straight jaws". In fact, because moving the jaws also moves the teeth, orthognathic surgery is usually performed in conjunction with orthodontics so that the teeth are in proper position after surgery. The objective of orthognathic surgery is the correction of a wide range of minor and major facial and jaw irregularities, and benefits include an improved ability to chew, speak and breathe. In many cases an enhanced appearance can also result.People who can potentially benefit from orthognathic surgery include those with an improper bite and those with jaws that are positioned incorrectly. Jaw growth is a slow and gradual process, and in some instances upper and lower jaws may grow at different rates. The result can be a host of problems that can affect chewing, function, speech, long-term oral health, and appearance. Injury to the jaw and birth defects can also affect jaw alignment. While orthodontics alone can correct many "bite" problems if only the teeth are involved, orthognathic surgery may be required if the jaw also needs repositioning.Conditions that may indicate a need for orthognathic surgery:
Unequal growth of the jaws, injury or birth defects can produce problems and symptoms that require treatment by a team that usually includes an oral and maxillofacial surgeon, an orthodontist, and sometimes your dentist. In order to determine if you are a candidate for orthognathic surgery, an evaluation of your condition is necessary.In diagnosing your need for orthognathic surgery, the oral and maxillofacial surgeon and the orthodontist will work closely together. The orthodontist is responsible for moving the teeth so they will fit together properly after the jaws have been repositioned, and the oral surgeon is responsible for repositioning the jaw(s) so the teeth and jaws are in proper alignment. Depending on the extent of your problem, orthodontic treatment alone may be sufficient, or orthognathic surgery may be indicated. Surgery can range from minor movement of a single part of your dental arch to the repositioning of both jaws.
Orthognathic surgery moves your teeth and jaws into a new position that is more balanced, functional and healthy. Not only should you be able to bite and chew better than ever before, but your appearance and speech may be enhanced, as well. The results of orthognathic surgery can have a dramatic and positive effect on many aspects of your life. If you have any of the above mentioned conditions that may indicate a need for orthognathic surgery, please call us at Midland Oral Surgery and Implant Centers for a consultation.

On July 23 and 24, NYK welcomed 10 elementary and junior high school teachers from Tokyo for a program to promote their understanding of corporate activities.
This training program was held during the schools' summer vacation to deepen the teachers' understanding of human resources development and environmental measures, some of which could be used in future school management. This is the 21st year for NYK to provide this program, which was arranged in cooperation with the Japan Institute for Social and Economic Affairs.
The program included lectures about the NYK Group's business, environmental measures, and CSR activities. In addition, the participants stopped by Japan Marine Science Inc., an NYK Group company, to experience its ship-handling simulator and also visited the NYK Maritime Museum and the museum-ship Hikawa Maru.
Some feedback received from participants included the following:
--"I learnt many things and thought again about a teacher's everyday duties and how to interact with students."
--"I realized that transportation by ships supports our daily life and industry."
--"The lecture on safety management while handling a ship helped me learn again the importance of communication."
NYK, as a good corporate citizen, will continue to provide programs that contribute to our society.

A year ago, Centennial's Damian Biggs beat Hammond twice with last-second baskets. Yesterday at Centennial, the senior had a chance to do it again, but his baseline jumper bounced off the rim at the buzzer, preserving the Bears' 60-59 victory.
An effective full-court press and clutch shooting by Kris Jefferson rallied Hammond (5-5 overall, 3-1 league) from a 54-43 deficit in the final five minutes. Hammond outscored the Eagles 17-5 during that span, and Jefferson scored nine points, including the game-winning drive with 12 seconds left.
Jefferson (15 points, seven rebounds) didn't start and had only two points at halftime, but he sank a three-point shot with two minutes left that cut Centennial's lead to 57-55.

A thick fog rolls in off the ocean. Between the low clouds, multi-colored houses cling to the hillsides, fighting with each other for the best view of the sea. There's night time music in the streets and daytime art on the walls. Have a cold glass of white wine while you contemplate poetry, Neruda or Mistral, and take the funicular elevators to the top of the steep hills. Admire the view.
This is Valparaiso.
Located about an hour and a half away from Santiago, Valparaiso is the second largest metropolitan area in Chile. This port has played a central role in the development of the nation. From the hilltops next to the shore, down to the coast, Valparaiso is often compared with San Francisco in the United States.
The history of the city is as old as the country – native populations, Spanish presence since the 1500s, and key historical events have all taken place here. During the 1800s it was even a key stopping point for ships rounding South America, via the Straits of Magellan.
Valparaiso has always been known as a major stomping ground for poets and artists, revolutionaries and intellectuals alike. The port streets are filled with street art, interesting shops, musical centres and cafés and bars. Just walking through the streets here is a tremendous pleasure.
The food options here are as varied as there are tastes, though many people rave about the chorrillanas (a wonderful artery-clogging pile of French fries, meat, onions and eggs) at J Cruz. For those who don't want to have to lick their fingers after the meal, there is a cornucopia of tasty restaurants on the hilltops with beautiful ocean views.
The entire bay Valparaiso is located on, stretching through Viña del Mar and onwards, has one of the world's most extensive fireworks display every new year's. Hundreds of thousands of people converge on the city to watch the celebration reflected in the ocean waters while scoring a lucky midnight kiss to bring in good tidings. This is just one of the amazing events you could see here.
Pablo Neruda, Chile's illustrious poet, said that Valparaiso never had time to brush its hair or to properly get dressed. He should know – he had a house here (you should visit it). Fishermen and artists, music and gambling. A port town is as a port town does. Come check it out. If you hear gypsy jazz wafting through the fog at night, don't be afraid to see where it's coming from.

Question about 1999 GMC Suburban
On a 1999 chev suburban with the eng running or while driving the four wheel drive will not engage. But if I turn the key to the on position wait for the light on the four wheel drive to do there thing then engage four wheel drive it will operate. same to disengage and when it disengages it lets off a loud clunk like it is in a bind all tires are the same size on level ground. Are there clutches inside the transfer case or just what could this be Thank you in advance for any help you can be
Posted by gocvan on
ok after watching my transfer case switch when i first start the vehicle the light comes on dim after being on for several minutes the light gets brighter i am checking connections for poor contacts it will engage only after the light gets bright in the switch this is the 1999 suburban
How can I test the solenoid on the front end I found some corrosion on the fuse if I wait for the switch lights to get bright it all works if they are dim it will not operate into auto lo range or h range 4X4 the fluid looks fine no bad smell I believe it is in the electronics will a solenoid do that to the lights on the switch and the service 4x light does come on how do I get codes
It is a switch on the dash that engages the 4x the switch appears to be good I got one from a parts store compared it to mine mine was good returned the other found small amount of corrosion at the fuse cleaned it did not change prob at your advice replaced fuse problem still there
This vehicle has a solenoid on the front differetial that switches between 2W and 4W drive. The mechanism also contains a swtich that tells the truck what position it is in. Your problem may be a faulty solenoid. It is relatively easy to replace.
Posted on Dec 30, 2008
You may need to change the fluid in your transfer case. Also are you sure it's not ingaged? Sometimes it will ingage but the switch that turns on the light won't so your don't know for sure. Try shifting into low range. Same problem?
Posted on Dec 30, 2008
Do you have the switch on the dash or the shifter on the floor?
It actually sounds like it might be poor contacts. Try cleaning all of the contacts in the circuit. Also check the fuse to see if it's the correct amperage. Try puting a higher amp fuse in to help overcome bad connections. Good luck. Please rate me so I know if I help. Thanks.
Try checking the plug at the transfercase. All of the switch is done there. Otherwise the solenoid needs to be replaced. Let me know what you find.

Leaders representing a cross-section of New Jersey's diverse Muslim population participated in Saturday's session in the capital city. Several participants entering the private gathering said they hope the state attorney general will announce a formal investigation into the matter.
Muslim leaders ' including the imam of the Paterson-based Islamic Center of Passaic County, one of the state's largest mosques ' are demanding a full account of the NYPD's activities in New Jersey. A series of stories by The Associated Press detailed the monitoring in New Jersey.

This is a follow-up post to Positive Parenting, on this site.
The smacking debate in New Zealand continues to rage. A few days ago, one of our Sunday newspapers ran an article on the issue. I spluttered indignantly into my morning coffee as I read a quote from some pro-smacking character to the effect that:
"Children are not little bundles of innocence: they are little bundles of depravity and can develop into unrestrained agents of evil unless trained and disciplined. Selfishness, violence, lying, cheating, stealing and other such manifestations of rebellion are just the child unpacking some of this sinful foolishness from the vast store in his heart."
I had a certain opinion on this, the politest words of which were: Who the …… was the ….. who said that?
"Ah," says my wife (the historian) nonchalantly, "that's from the bible."
"The wha..?" I replied eloquently.
She disappeared off into the chaos she calls her office and emerged a short time later with a reference to a lecture she hosted recently. "Here it is," says she, "Psalm 51:5."
Muttering darkly, I sifted through my book-case for my old bible, purchased for ten shillings in 1966 (approx. $1 then) and which contains a hand written dedication dated 1874 – (more about that at some future time.) Straining my aging eyes at the tiny print I read Psalm 51:5. In fact, I read the whole psalm, then looked up a commentary on in on the net. 51:5 reads:
"Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me."
What!? Is that it? Here we have David grumbling because his mum seems to have been a bit of a good-time girl, how does that translate into little bundles of depravity? Well, I suppose shapen in iniquity would be a bit on the bratty side, but hang about, read a little further:
55:7 says:"Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me and I shall be whiter than snow."
Well, if that's all it takes, the iniquity can't have been all that foul. A spot of sacred herb and a bit of a scrub-up wouldn't work on some of the characters I've come across, believe you me! I took a turn around the garden. Hmm, no Hyssop. I wonder if Rosemary would do the trick – got plenty of that.
OK, the pro biff yer kids types also cite Proverbs 22:15. Back to the fine print:
"Foolishness is bound in the heart of a child; but the rod of correction shall drive it far from him."
Ouch! That seems pretty cut and dried doesn't it? But, hang on, take a look at this excellent post from a thinking Christian parent. Ah-ha! So the rod of correction is for guidance, not something to beat the crap out of your kid with. Interesting what you find when you actually read what is there, rather than pluck items out of context, isn't it?
Also quoted in support of clout your kids is Jeremiah 17:9:
"The heart is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked: who can know it?"
I read the whole chapter (oh dear, much more of that and I'd have been howling at the moon – where's the prozac?) – it doesn't seem to be about children at all, but rather Jeremiah having a good old kvetch about some place called Judah. And all so very gloomy and pessimistic – but isn't that how he got his name? (!)
I hold the view that children are sacred. This does not mean that children do not need guidance and discipline. It does not mean that children are incapable of behaving badly. Nor does it mean that positive parenting is an easy way, or a laissez-faire affair. Fleeting fantasies about joining an axe murderers empathy club are par for the course, as is chronic anxiety disorder, hypervigilance, several conditions that the American Psychiatric Association hasn't come to grips with yet and reaction times that would make a striking cobra seem languid by comparison. I'm sure we've all seen those little signs on cars: "Baby On Board." I saw one that said "Sleep Deprived Hormonally Unbalanced Mother On Board." I drove very carefully around that one.
The point of this rant is that if you view your child as a little bundle of depravity and an unrestrained agent of evil, guess what you are going to see in your child? And guess how you are likely to wind up treating him/her? (And guess how he/she will behave!)
If you have a view of your child as sacred, guess what you will see in your child?
A little bundle of iniquity who'll block the loo with 600 metres of toilet paper the moment your back is turned that's what! Aaargh – where's that rod? – (I need it to unblock the loo!)
And finally, for those who are tempted to take scriptures too literally: (This has been around in various forms for quite a while, but is still pretty good.)
"I do need some advice regarding some elements of God's Laws and how to follow them:
1. Leviticus 25:44 states that I may possess slaves, both male and female, provided they are purchased from neighboring nations. A friend of mine claims that this applies to Mexicans, but not Canadians. Can you clarify? Why can't I own Canadians? (In our part of the world this would be Australians. New Zealanders would love to have Australians as slaves, and vice versa of course.)
2. I would like to sell my daughter into slavery, as sanctioned in Exodus 21:7. In this day and age, what do you think would be a fair price for her? She is 6 years old, healthy, and very smart. She doesn't want to be a slave, so that might be a problem.
3. I know that I am allowed no contact with a woman while she is in her period of menstrual uncleanness – Lev.15: 19 24. The problem is how do I tell? I have tried asking, but most women take offense.
4. When I burn a bull on the altar as a sacrifice, I know it creates a pleasing odor for the Lord – Lev.1:9. The problem is, my neighbors. They claim the odor is not pleasing to them. Should I smite them?
5. I have a neighbor who insists on working on the Sabbath. Exodus 35:2. clearly states he should be put to death. Am I morally obligated to kill him myself, or should I ask the police to do it?
6. A friend of mine feels that even though eating shellfish is an abomination – Lev. 11:10, it is a lesser abomination than homosexuality. I don't agree. Can you settle this? Are there 'degrees' of abomination?
7. Lev.21:20 states that I may not approach the altar of God if I have a defect in my sight. I have to admit that I wear contact lenses. Does my vision have to be 20/20, or is there some wiggle-room here?
8. Most of my male friends get their hair trimmed, including the hair around their temples, even though Lev. 19 expressly forbids this: How should they die?
9. I know from Lev. 11:6-8 that touching the skin of a dead pig makes me unclean, but may I still play football if I wear gloves?
10. My uncle has a farm. He violates Lev.19:19 by planting two different crops in the same field, as does his wife by wearing garments made of two different kinds of thread (cotton/polyester blend). He also tends to curse and blaspheme a lot. Is it really necessary that we go to all the trouble of getting the whole town together to stone them? Lev.24:10-16. Couldn't we just burn them at a private family affair, like we do with people who sleep with their in-laws? (Lev. 20:14)
Thank you again for reminding us that God's word is eternal and unchanging."
Very Truly Yours,

A Broward County landmark vanished Tuesday when the Grand Prix Race-O-Rama castle in Davie was demolished to make way for an Interstate 595 interchange.
The demolition ended a 15-year residency at the intersection of State Road 84 and State Road 7 for the popular amusement park, which was closed for business in September.
Many of the huge stone castle`s hundreds of amusements, games and attractions had been auctioned off shortly after the business was closed, and others were moved to a new site, the former Malibu Grand Prix off Interstate 95 in Dania.
The park had to go to make way for a massive four-level interchange that will link the new I-595 with State Road 7 and State Road 84. Preliminary work on the interchange has already begun.
As he wrecker`s ball took aim at the gray brick walls of the turreted castle, the owners were busy at work at their new location.
``We didn`t want to go over and watch,`` said Mark Mogerman, whose father, Ron, started the business 15 years ago.
``Emotionally, we were prepared for it for a long time, but we are so involved over here that we don`t think much about it,`` he said. ``But it`s like saying goodbye to an old friend.``
There`s no reason to shed too many tears for the owners, however. The state Department of Transportation paid them $3.1 million for the building and four acres of land.
The Race-O-Rama is one of two well-known castles in Broward County that are going to make way for I-595.
Also scheduled to be taken and demolished for an I-595 project is Castle Park in Fort Lauderdale, located off Interstate 95 just south of State Road 84.

Super Bowl 48 is shaping up to be one of the most incredible games ever played- in "New York, New York".
The greatest attack in the history of the NFL is taking on the best defence in the game, this year.
The Denver Broncos are the number one seed in the AFC and the Seattle Seahawks are the number one seed in the NFC. It's the first time in 20 years both number one seeds have faced off in the Super Bowl and it's only the second time it's happened, ever.
Peyton Manning is like the itunes of the technology world. He has superseded the record and smashed all attacking records. Greatest number of touch downs thrown (55) and greatest passing yardage record (5477), in a single season.
The Seahawks will need to find something supernatural and from another planet to halt Manning. While Bruno Mars is performing at half time, I hardly think this extra terrestrial reference will help the boys from Seattle.
The weather in New York is going to be chilli and perhaps this is why the Red Hot Chilli Peppers have also been chosen to entertain the crowds at Metlife stadium.
Manning is 37 and Seattle's quarterback, Russell Wilson is 25. This 12 year gap is the largest ever. Manning has far more experience. Experience didn't stop Pepsi from entering the cola market and they've done fairly well against Coke. Experience didn't halt Mark Zuckerberg either and I don't expect it to worry Wilson.
The city of New York barely sleeps anywhere. Don't expect it to catch a wink around Super Bowl time!
Who is going to win? Seattle, 24-23.
The game will be played at 10.30am (AEST) on Monday 3rd February, 2014.
Here are the basic rules for all Australian's to understand what is going on.
Games are divided into four, 15 minute quarters. At the end of the first and third quarters, the team with the ball retains possession heading into the following quarter. That is not the case before halftime. The second half starts with a kickoff in the same way as Rugby League or Union.
Each team essentially has 4 tackles to try and make 10 yards (just over 9m).
If a team manages 10 yards (or longer) they are then given the opportunity to try and make another 10 yards within 4 tackles. In NFL terms it is called a down rather than a tackle. Eg/ if it is 2nd and 8, this means that the offensive team is on its 2nd tackle and they still need to make a further 8 yards to reach 10 yards and receive their next set of 4 downs (tackles).
On the 4th down, if the offensive team is too far away to kick a field goal, they will kick the ball for field position, like in League on the 5th tackle.
The main difference between Australian codes of football and NFL is, that after the ball is kicked, the kicking team isn't allowed to re-gather the ball.
Play begins at what is called the line of scrimmage. The offensive team is allowed to only throw the ball forward, once, behind this line of scrimmage. However each team may pass the ball backwards as many times as they like (which is termed 'a lateral').
A player is tackled when one or both of his knees touch the ground. The play is then over (even if the ball comes loose).
A touchdown (which is the same as a try) is worth 6 points. To score a touchdown if you are running towards the goal line, the ball simply needs to cross the goal line (it doesn't have to be grounded over the goal line). If someone is catching the ball in the 'end zone' (in goal area), the person catching the ball needs to have two feet in bounds at some point in time.
After a touch down is scored, the offensive team tries to convert the touch down which is worth one point. This kicking conversion attempt is taken from directly in front of the goal posts.
Teams can also attempt a 2 point conversion, which is where they will try and score a touchdown again, from the opponent's 2 yard line.
Like in Rugby, field goals are worth 3 points and can be attempted from any position on the field.
In order to win the game, the team who wins the coin toss must score a touchdown on their first possession.
If they only score a field goal, the opposing team then gets a chance to score. If they kick a field goal, the game continues. If they score a touchdown, the game ends.
If the game is tied after both teams have had a possession, then the next score wins.

The Exhibit, Balham
The Vibe
Balham isn't exactly traditional date territory. It's far out, deeply uncool and could be better looking. Entering The Exhibit with mixed expectations, you may find yourself subconsciously reaching for your taxi app as you wait for your date, wondering if this was a bit of a punchy shout. Bear with me.
The Exhibit is a bar-meets-diner-meets-cinema venue, the sort of artsy place where the staff stay for years (it's the 'character' of the place) and regulars know the deal days by heart. For a date night, bypass the ground floor bar completely and head straight up to the convincing 50s diner. Its vintage jukebox, low partitioned booths and burger n shake dominated menu makes you feel like you've just pulled off for a pit stop before getting back on the road to Vegas. Kinda charming, kinda meta-grim. The faded photos of New Mexico and the red and yellow squeezy bottles of sauce reinforce this, alongside a very mixed crowd. Heading one floor up after the meal, you'll find a DREAMY tiny cinema room made up of 12 two-man sofas, with red pillows and side tables for booze. This is where it gets cute (or handsy) and the romance goes up a notch.
The Order
It's diner food, with creamy shakes and juicy burgers that are easily as good as any hipster pop-up. Take note: the chicken burger is minced and delicious – easier to eat and soaks up sauces a treat. Also on Tuesdays and Wednesdays it's cheap as chips – cinema tickets, burgers, fries and a shake for £15.90.
The Game
This is the sort of date you take someone 4-6 weeks into a relationship. You've had the exclusivity chat and are now treading the habit-forming terrain of mid-week dates. It's either Orange Wednesdays and a trip to the Hagaan Daaz store, or this.
There are two main reasons you should give this place a go. One: To share a juicy burger n shake with the person you're crushing on is a vital step in getting to know them. It's messy, awkward and slightly juvenile – a nice break from the relentless charm offensive and glitzy bars. Two: When you don't have the energy to talk for hours over gallons of wine, this date is perfect for an hour of catching up in the diner, followed by 3 hours of light petting in the cinema. The perfect mind/body ratio for a Wednesday.
The Faults
The ground floor bar is a turn off, head straight upstairs.
1. It's real cutesy but the cinema is too intimate to be that badly behaved in.

Benefit from being a 4-H host family
Michigan families are encouraged to host exchange delegates from Japan during the summer of 2012. The Japanese youth will live with their host families July 22 to August 18, 2012.
This summer, the Michigan 4-H Youth Development program is again coordinating the placement of 50 youth from Japan with families throughout Michigan for a four week homestay program. The Japanese youth are placed with families who have a child of the same gender. Families with children between the ages of nine and 16 can apply to host one of the Japanese youth delegates. Pictures and profiles of the Japanese delegates still in need of a host family for the 2012 exchange are available to view online. Application instructions and forms for families interested in hosting a Japanese youth are also available online.
While there are numerous benefits of acting as a host family, here are five to consider:
Develop new friendships
The Frost family, from Skandia, in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, has hosted two Japanese students through the exchange program: Rinka in 2010 and Masa in 2011. Through their host family experience, the Frost family has developed long-lasting friendships with Rinka, Masa and the families of their delegates.
"Our family was not just affected for the months that we were hosting students, the friendships have carried on. Aria [my daughter] continues to write letters with Rinka and has even started learning how to write in Japanese. I have also developed a friendship with Rinka's mom, and we write letters to each other regularly as well," explained Kim Frost (host mom).
In addition to forming new friendships, hosting an international delegate also helps children and parents to develop stronger relationships with other members of their own family.
Grow stronger family relationships
Hosting Masa in 2011 provided the Frost family with many opportunities to strengthen the relationships between family members. Frost explains that "as a family, we really pulled together and worked as a family to make sure that Masa felt welcomed, happy and loved." Host families work together during the exchange to make sure that they understand and meet their delegate's needs. Through this process, families are able to develop valuable communication skills as they work to overcome challenges that arise because of language and cultural differences.
Learn about another culture
The youth delegates from Japan come to Michigan excited to learn about the customs, foods and cultures of the United States. They are also excited to share Japanese customs, foods and culture with their American host families. Prior to learning from their delegate during the exchange, host families often spend time preparing for the exchange by learning about Japan and its people. This is an opportunity for the entire family to participate in a shared learning experience and to help each other learn about another culture by utilizing a variety of education and information resources.
Explore opportunities for international travel
Michigan youth whose families host a youth from Japan are not required to travel to Japan, but many choose to do so following their hosting experience. Each year, Michigan 4-H Youth Development coordinates a delegation of Michigan youth who visit Japan during the summer. The Michigan youth stay with a host family in Japan for 4 or 8 weeks. By participating in an exchange as a host sibling, Michigan youth are able to learn about another culture and develop the ability to form friendships with people from other cultures. Michigan youth who have participated in the exchange program as a host sibling may also have the opportunity to stay with their Japanese delegate and their family when they travel to Japan.
Improve international relationships
According to the States' 4-H International Exchange Program, since its beginnings in 1972, the Japanese exchange program has been organized with the purpose of "guiding the young people of the world towards broadened understandings, lasting friendships and a future of peace." Host mom Frost agrees that the effects of the program are even greater than the relationships that are formed during and after the hosting period. She believes "this program is huge for promoting world peace, cultural understanding and international relationships. Participating in this program has helped out family to become a truly international family."

What did I miss?
lokithelion posted a topic in Everything Else Message BoardSup fools. What did I miss? Anyone old still here?
Thanks dude. I appreciate it. Both of those shows were a lot of fun. Still can't believe I got to do four shows with Kinane last week. To people that saw either of Kinane's 3 sets over the weekend, they all had different stories told. He was pretty well lit by the time he went up for the last show Sunday night and it was a glorious, strange, beautiful time. No matter when you saw him you got something special which is sort of why I love him. Favorite sets of Fest on my end were House Boat, Shook Ones, Broadway Calls, and watching Braid twice Saturday (soundcheck and real set). A serious delight all around. Now to get over this cold I gave myself.
Is Anyone Up? is dead.

It's gory, but it's not like Saw. I think the humor will keep her having fun. My wife hates things like Saw but loved this.
Yes sir it is. Still one of the funniest episodes of anything ever. Booyeah, yes. Yes you will. This is the rare horror movie that I think will be beloved by people who adore horror and people who think it's all cliches. Shit is incredible.

If you think Media Mail is slow now...
lokithelion replied to a topic in Everything Else Message BoardIsn't that so their pensions won't go under funded? You know like how the rest of the pensions are underfunded because they don't have such measures in place. Nope. You can fund pensions without paying 5.5 billion a year forward on them. This is paying billions a year for pensions in the future, with money they don't have. Other pension programs are currently underfunded because A) they were put into unsafe investments because funds were taken out of the pensions to pay for other things C) people weren't paying enough into their pensions in the first place or funds weren't matched. As for your link, I'm happy to see they lowered it to ten from the original 75. I don't have time to double check if that's true or not but I tend to trust PBS. It's still an insane and unfair liability to add to a nonprofit entity that has been razed of funding and taken massive cuts in staffing. It's not necessary and it's an active action to kill one of great institutions of this country.
If you think Media Mail is slow now...
lokithelion replied to a topic in Everything Else Message BoardIt's a horrible job full of danger and it provides a necessary service for the country. It's worth $22 an hour.
If you think Media Mail is slow now...
lokithelion replied to a topic in Everything Else Message BoardThis is an absolute falsehood. The only problem the post office has right now is that, thanks to a Republican Congress vote in December 2006, they are required to pay $5 billion annually in pre-payments toward retiree health benefits for 75 years into the future. It was an intentional act of sabotage to kill the post office. And it's working because no one does any research. It's insane and it's an easy problem to fix.

Did you know that baking soda and salt can do that to teeth?
A few weeks ago I had a gum situation – my growing wisdom tooth irritated the tissues around it and I was stuck with debilitating pain, infection, swelling and sore jaw. As I was contemplating a visit to a dentist – a trip I really did not want to make since I do not have a dental insurance – my friend (who has recurring flare ups of this sort) recommended to mix a spoon full of baking soda and salt in a glass of water and gargle with it for a minute or so, every thirty minute, for as long as it takes. I ended up doing it for about four days and continued twice a day for another four days, just in case.
The inflammation, the pain, the soreness – it was all gone. And, what also has gone was the plaque! I used to get it just where we all do – on the inner side, at the bottom of my teeth. Hundred bucks for a dental visit and it was taken care of, but I am seeing now that a regular use of baking soda and salt can do the trick too. So, now I have a cup of the mix next to my toothpaste and use it after each brushing.
I am not saying that I will skip the dental visits all together, but if I can take better care of my teeth and save money, I will definitely do that. That, and my teeth are definitely whiter now! Nice bonus.

Warp Beam Stands: Six Key Advantages to Consider
Efficient and economical: A quick overview of six key advantages you can gain with the installation of warp beam stands.
1. Flexibility: wide areas of application
Warp beam stands are used for various kinds of applications, ranging from the weaving of fabrics with coarse yarn counts, use of warp yarns with widely differing yarn counts up to multi-layer fabrics with a different weave-in of the binder yarn.
2. Easy handling of warp beam changes
The warp beam stands are developed with the latest technology and are especially designed for the easy handling of the warp beams during loading and unloading.
3. Perfect amount and tension electronically controlled
They incorporate electronic controls for feeding the required amount of warp with the requested tension to the weaving machine.
4. Ideal for large quantities and lengthy time periods
Warp beam stands can make the weaving process more efficient and economical, for example, in the case of fabrics that are woven in large quantities over a lengthy period of time and where traditional size warp beams are quickly woven out.
5. Think big and control greater tension variations
The larger the diameter of the beams the longer the length of the warp that can be wound on to it and the fewer warp changes are therefore required. But at the same time the greater the tension variations that have to be compensated from full to empty warp beam. Warp beam stands with electronically controlled feeding and tension adjustment deliver the warp just right in terms of speed and tension.
6. Above or behind: warp beam stands outside weaving machine
The most modern machines can take warps of up to 1100mm in diameter. If even larger diameter beams are needed for very coarse yarns, the beams can be placed onto separate warp beam stands outside the weaving machine. They can be placed either above or behind each other.

It's New Brew Thursday!
Every Thursday, to help introduce a new brew at the pub, and in homage to the New Brew Thursday podcast, and so that you can work on your Untappd New Brew Thursday badge (which now maxes at level 50), we bring at least one new beer to our bottle line-up. This week we have 2 new bottles, 2 brews returning to the pub via bottles, and a new brew on tap.
New Bottles
This week we're adding 4 new bottles. A couple are returning brews that have been on tap here in the past and because you loved them so much we decided to have them on-hand in bottles for when you want to revisit them. The other two are new beers at the pub but are from breweries we've come to love.
Groundwork Coffee Porter from Smog City – Coffee infused porter
Peanut Butter Milk Stout from Belching Beaver – the name says it all
Mash from The Bruery – Bourbon Barrel-aged Barleywine
Four Seasons Winter from Mother Earth – Bourbon Barrel-aged Olde Ale
Check our bottle line-up for all their specs!
New On Tap
We just emptied the keg of Stone Farms Fresh Hop Ale which was brewed at Stone's Liberty Station location in Point Loma where they're creating special brews not brewed at Stone's main brewery. With that keg gone we have one more from Liberty Station to bring on board: Buoy 1 SD Pale Ale. Named for the 1st buoy seen when you're entering San Diego Harbor, this is a single-malt double-hop beer. The Belma hops present a sort of strawberry/grape jam flavor and the calypso hops bring about a dank apple character, both balanced out by the bready notes of the pale malt. Come in and try this limited edition brew today!
