ANAHEIM, Calif.
(Jan. 31, 2008) - U.S. middle blocker Ryan Millar has been an important part of the U.S. Men's National Volleyball Team since he joined in 1999. But in 2007, at age 29, the two-time Olympian had one of his best seasons and was named the U.S. Men's Indoor Player of the Year.
Millar (Palmdale, Calif.) played in 127 sets for the U.S. Men's National Team in 2007, more sets than any other player besides libero Rich Lambourne. The U.S. Men's Team finished with a record of 33-8 and won a gold medal at the Americas' Cup, bronze in the FIVB World League and finished fourth at the FIVB World Cup.
"I am happy that my efforts in 2007 weren't overlooked," Millar said via e-mail from Italy where he plays professionally for the Sparkling Milano Volleyball Team. "Every time I step on the court with the USA on my back, I do what I can to help the team win. The thing I am most proud of (in 2007) is the boosting of our world ranking to No. 3 in the world. That is the highest we have ever been since I have been with the team."
The 6-foot-7 Millar led the U.S. Men in blocks in 2007 with 84, averaging 0.66 blocks per set. He was the second-leading scorer on the U.S. Men's Team (behind Reid Priddy) with 350 points. He averaged 2.75 points per set. Millar was second among all blockers at the end of World League pool play with 36 blocks on 89 attempts and an average of 0.80 blocks per set. He was second among all blockers in the World Cup with a total of 27 blocks in 40 sets for an average of 0.675 blocks per set. Although overall tournament statistics were not available, Millar led the United States in blocking with 10 at the 2008 NORCECA Continental Olympic Qualification Tournament, which the U.S. Men won with five match victories and no set losses. The victory qualified Team USA for the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing.
"Before the tournament even started, I told my wife (Suzanne) that I was seriously thinking that we were not going to drop a set the whole tournament, and it turned out I was right," Millar wrote. "I think after the World Cup (in which the U.S. Men finished fourth and just missed qualifying for the Olympic Games) every one of us looked inside ourselves and thought about what it was going to take to qualify in Puerto Rico, and it showed."
Although the team for Beijing has not yet been announced, it is safe to say that Millar will most likely play in his third Olympic Games in 2008. He has talked of competing through the 2012 Olympic Games in London if he stays healthy. Eventually, he hopes to pursue his dream of being a head coach; something he started when he served as co-head men's volleyball coach at Brigham Young University for the 2007 season. Millar was a star at BYU when he played there from 1996-99 and still holds several school records.
"Being at BYU last year was great," Millar wrote. "We had a good group of guys, who worked hard and listened to the things that I tried to teach them. I hope that they are better players because I was their coach. Coaching has been a passion of mine for quite a while now. I will definitely be coaching after I am finished playing. I would love to coach the USA at the Olympic Games someday."
Away from the court, Millar and Suzanne are the parents of Max, who will turn 2 this year.
"Playing volleyball in a two-hour match has nothing on chasing Max around for two hours. It amazes me how much energy kids have," Millar wrote. "If I do have any free time, I like to snowboard, golf, and take vacations with my wife."
FIVB World League Update
: Canada has had to withdraw from the FIVB World League tournament and the FIVB has put out a call for a replacement. Canada's withdrawal was forced when it lost funding from the "Road to Excellence" Program. The program is a partnership between the Canadian Olympic Committee, private sector partners and the federal government to deliver high-performance sports programming and medals in summer sport. It was designed to support Summer Olympic and Paralympic sports deemed to have high probability of success in Beijing 2008 and for the 2012 Olympic Games in London. The Canadian Men's Volleyball Team finished fourth at the NORCECA Continental Olympic Qualification Tournament and would not have had another chance to qualify for the 2008 Olympic Games. Canada's replacement will fill its spot in Pool A along with Brazil, France and Serbia.

It's vital to sell FD and Webster Co. in D.C.
Visiting our nation's capital is always an adventure.
Walking the hallways where history was made and continues to unfold is seductive for even the most jaded among us. One cannot help but be impressed – and maybe made a bit uneasy – by the massive bureaucracy at the governmental heart of the world's most powerful nation.
Whether we like it our not, what happens in Washington, D.C., has ramifications right here in Fort Dodge and north central Iowa.
That's why a delegation of government and community leaders from Fort Dodge journeyed to Washington this past week to make certain that lawmakers and bureaucrats understood how the actions they take will affect the city and the region.
Fort Dodge leaders have been making annual visits to Washington for more than a decade.
The goal of the trip was quite simply to educate legislators and others about projects important to our area and solicit their help in making certain that local needs are considered by the federal government.
This year's delegation included:
Derick Anderson, northwest Iowa market president, McClure Engineering;
Matt Bemrich, Fort Dodge mayor;
Mark Campbell, Webster County supervisor;
Rhonda Chambers, director of aviation, Fort Dodge Regional Airport;
Lance Choi, vice president, CJ Bio America;
Michelle De La Riva, interim director, Community and Family Resources;
David Fierke, Fort Dodge city manager;
Dave Flattery, Fort Dodge city councilman;
Jim Gill, president, board of directors, Community and Family Resources;
Wade Greiman, project manager, Snyder and Associates Inc.;
Jim Kersten, associate vice president, Iowa Central Community College;
Jung Tak Nam, president, CJ Bio America;
Jim Oberhelman, district representative, U.S. Rep. Steve King; and
Dennis Plautz, chief executive officer, Greater Fort Dodge Growth Alliance.
The Messenger thanks these community leaders for the time and resources they devoted to this undertaking. Championing our community's many important projects is vital work that benefits us all.

Department Services
If you feel uncomfortable walking alone at night, or have special circumstances that cause you to be concerned about your personal safety, you may contact Police Services at (978) 837-5555 externally, x5555 internally or by use of Emergency Phones located throughout the campus.
An officer will provide a safety escort. The service is available to all community members and their guests.
Occasionally, situations may arise when an officer is unable to respond immediately to your request. The dispatcher will advise at the time of your call of any expected delays. A Student Security Team member may be dispatched to your location to provide the service. Please wait in a safe place for the arrival of your safety escort.
If your escort has not arrived after a reasonable time, please call again.
When you request an escort, please provide the dispatcher with your name and exact location.
The Department of Police Services is committed to the goals of providing a safe, efficient and courteous escort service. Therefore, certain restrictions must be placed on this service. The escort service is not designed to:
- Provide transportation to/from places of employment, restaurants, taverns, airports, mass-transit, etc.
- Provide transportation for large groups or persons intoxicated or otherwise exhibiting obnoxious behavior.
The Department of Police Services is responsible for operating the central Lost and Found function for the College. Found items are eventually turned over to the Department by the library, Department of Facilities workers, and individual community members.
If you have lost something, please visit our station in the basement at the rear of Monican to determine if we have your property.
College Identification cards can now be obtained through the college's Computer Store.
The department provides engraving services to the community on a regular basis during Community Oriented Policing Programs and upon request.
All items, large or small, can be engraved with a mark of the owner's choice. If it is stolen and recovered, the item is then recognizable to the rightful owner as his or her property.
It is recommended that no part of the social security number be used since this may result in identity theft. However, other acceptable marks may include a date of birth, pet's name, or the owner's nickname. Nothing of a crude nature will be acceptable, however.
If your item is too large to be carried to the location of the program, you may request that an officer come to your dorm room to provide the engraving service.
There are emergency two-way call stations at strategic locations throughout campus. You can identify the station by the blue light located above the boxes, or by the yellow boxes marked "Emergency". When the call button is depressed an individual can communicate directly with the Dispatcher at the Merrimack College Department of Police Services. The individual can then notify the Dispatcher of the emergency. AN officer will then be dispatched to effectively respond to the situation. Please note that all of the pay phones on campus can be used to call anywhere on campus free of charge.
Member of the community can borrow one of our jump packs if they need a jump start, and can receive assistance gaining entrance to their vehicle when they have locked their keys inside.
Lighting Checks
The Police Services department conducts regular checks of lighting on campus and reports inadequate or inoperative lighting conditions to the proper department.
The Department of Police Services is conducting security surveys of offices and buildings to identify vulnerabilities in access, security, and property control, and is making recommendations for addressing any problems.
The Police Services Department occasionally coordinates with the State Police Auto Theft Task Force to mark your vehicle with its own set of "fingerprints", making the vehicle easily traceable if it is stolen and less desirable to a thief.
Message from the Chief
Remember, the primary responsibility for crime prevention and personal safety rests with each individual.
My door is always open to all of the students of Merrimack College. Please feel free to email me or stop by to discuss any issue you might have.
On behalf of all of the members of the Department of Police Services we wish you all the best for the upcoming year.
Chief Michael DelGreco

Incredible, David.
I definitely hope to see more of it!
How is the lid fit compared to the shudei? Toru says the wood fired can have a looser fit.
Beautiful pot. Enjoy!

Alex wrote:OMG that's sweet.
The swirl on the lid from the top is breathtaking. Your pictures make it look even more amazing then the AN ones.
Many thanks for sharing those.
David R. wrote:Alex wrote:How does it brew? any noticeable difference to the standard?
Still early to say, but so far I have noticed the same kind of difference than the oxidation vs reduction fired kyusu from Shimizu Ken. The Shudei (red) version focuses more on head notes, giving a fresh, green and flowery cup, whereas the Yakishime gives more heavy notes, more depth, maybe more length in the end.
About customs fees, this was a very bad surprise. I have to admit that it was totally my fault. I was so eager to have it, that I didn't ask Toru about what kind of shipment he was going to use. In France, every shipment using EMS from Japan (and not from any other asian countries I know of) is getting taxed. I don't mind paying my share but the costs calculation is a total rip off.
They add the customs fees before calculating the 19.6% TVA (for France), including the shipping costs, which is also weird... And in the end, they add 21€ because Chronopost has paid for you the fee in advance to the customs... I don't about the legality of this in France...
As you said, it will pass, but suffice to say it am still angry about this.Stentor wrote:How is the lid fit compared to the shudei?
Here, it fits just perfectly...
I'll try to post more photos soon.
Alex wrote:SAL would be the one that's likely to get through.
SAL is fastest to the UK anyway and rarely gets taxed. Express always gets taxed and sits in the customs for 10 days.
Express = about 12 days
SAL = 4-5 days
for UK anyway. I'll let David chime in for France
achyle wrote:Ymryl, if I may, ask Toru to send it to you by express and put a low value on the package, that's the way to go.
express package never get lost and the way how Toru will pack your teaware, you can be sure that it won't break so you don't have to worry about insurance stuff.
I know that's a bad guy advice but customs fees are ridiculous, especially in France

iHerb Customer Reviews
Savings of: $142.27 (50% off)
Complete Immune
Posted by Reviewer2835338 on Feb 20, 2008
Excellent product (but definitely an acquired taste!) and although it looks expensive it's packed with fantastic ingredients for immunity, the liver and digestion too
great for most chemo patients
Posted by Reviewer3323341 on Mar 05, 2009
I use this as a support system for my patients on chemotherapy and immune system breakdown or autoimmune conditions. Very comprehensive, well-formulated and money-saving if someone needs all these nutrients. One complaint about iherb, however: my next to last shipment to TX was all jumbled( things were not packed and protected but instead just thrown in a box!!) and there were broken packets of Progreens that got all over the entire contents of the shipment. We are not happy, iherb! You dropped the ball.
Great product

Skip to comments.Live Thread: Benghazi Whistleblowers Hearing 11:30 A.M. EDT 5/08/13
Posted on 05/08/2013 6:00:25 AM PDT by kristinn
click here to read article
"The ACLU gives her a 100..."
Its on Wiki.
Sheila Lee Jackson will find a way to be a part of these hearings.
She's an aisle hog and thinks the US flag was planted on Mars.
Don't get between her and a camera.
She quotes herself and gives herself a warm fuzzy feeling.
Is McFarland one of the people who does not want to appear before committee?
If so, what is his current status? What was his status on 9/11/2012?
Obviously, your Bible seems to have helped.
But there are some folks on Freerepublic that allow some things to get to them...
There are certainly things we can change...
There are certainly things we cannot change...
Wisdom is needed...
And I believe he will get elected.......again.
"Does he have any specific power to protect the whistleblowers?"
Cummings could agree with Issa to subpoena (call on the carpet) any State Dept. functionary (now under Kerry) who would take any action to enforce the career dead-ending demotion and false adverse performance reviews in Hicks's file that would prevent him from resuming his previous status.
If he runs, he will. If he decides to hell with another election, he will remain president for life, the main stream media will celebrate for a month and the only Congrseeional opposition will be Trey Gowdy and Ted Cruze.
IMHO this is the beginning of the end. Some Rs with spines - and some were displayed yesterday - who won't give up - and the whistleblowers we heard, and ones in the wings - anything is possible.
Of course I want this to avalanche but I think it really may get the rocks rolling and once this blows wide open, it could open all kinds of other doors about crimes commited, Islamic influence in our gov, and just who the he!! is the guy in the WH.
(For those interested, much new info on this thread about that topic):
Good point; it never occurred to me. I hope this comes out in the hearings that they had made a decision of no deployment - on the timing.
Did they pick out an arbitrary number?
She really does. Is she the mother of one of the four.
Sunday is Mother's Day. That's got to be gut-wrenching.
Are they in real time?
Did she wake Obama up? Did she contact Jarrett?
I'd like to see the timeline on who knew of ambassadors death and what kind of scrambling began.
He also had a meeting with a Turkish potentate that day.
Wonder how much time elapsed between his meetings and the attack.
If she is elected, we might as well call America the USSA........
There is a theory that has floated around, from time to time, that Iraq, during the war, convoyed WMD's to Bekka Valley in Syria.
Satellite photos indicate this is possible and, why there no WMD's detected in Iraq.
They had already been shipped to Syria and buried under the sand.
This is how I recalled situation at any rate. YMMV!!
I'm on (sleepy) allergy medicine so if I don't sound coherent, you can blame the allergy medication.
Other times I am incoherent, I have to own it myself. <8^)
My thoughts on that is that Israel will probably take care of it. They do not want Al Quada or others to get their hands on them.
And the fact the Syrian government has recently used WMD's, it seems to verify the story during the Iraq war.
In backtracking, I posted to the wrong person...
Do they even know how ridiculous they sound and look?
When they hang out with each other, do each of them think OR feel that they are a cut above the rest. Because they are not.
"Lions, tigers and bears.....oh, my. Lions, tigers and bears....oh, my!"
Who was the DC commissar?
If he was being minded, did he know it?
Hills, put on your big girl panties and get over it.
You could try some ice...........
It really can't be answered and not answering would leave them exposed to more suspicions.
Think of this: 1) Admitting to knowing when it would end would mean they had knowledge of some sort of "agreement" which, of course, if true, giving an answer simply could not happem
or - 2) Admitting that they had no way of knowing when it would end only makes their statement that no one could "get there in time" look completely ridiculous.
So asking this question would box the Administration into a corner - how could they ignore the question/how could they answer it...but no one seems smart enough to think of that.
The bottom line is - everyone seems to be swallowing their excuse about there not being enough time - when no one is looking at how vulnerable to being a completely idiotic that excuse is.
Thanks little jeremiah. The drips are not a torrent of water coming out of the dam but the number of leaks in the dam has grown, and this is good. May the dam fail soon protecting these criminals trying to kill America.
Washington Post (@washingtonpost) May 8, 2013
Who's tweeting?
We know what "journalists" say.
Who are the "journalists"?
Agenda driven "journalists" on their kneepads to protect Obama, Hills and all things "democrat."
Drones...worse than drones. They are drones who are influential enough to create more drones.
Right, carjic.
I'm not expecting the Spanish Inquisition, but I agree with you, no one is asking the right questions.
It is like dancing around the elephant in the room.
Why the timidity about all this?
The democrats are speaking their "thoughts" and running up the clock. Repubs better take that away from them and run the scorched earth option rat-a-tat-tat we know they have.
Not expecting the repubs to rat-a-tat-tat, the dems might lose their place on their talking points.
The facts, not the posturing, must come out cleanly and fully. It is up to repubs. to do this.
IMHO. (from my quarterback chair)
It would be high-time. Why the timidity when you have the truth on your side?
I don't get it. The repubs could get all the information out and leave the dems in their dust. Why don't they - its like they go up to a point and then drop it - then go to next point of fact and drop that one, too.
Arghhhhhhh.........they are making a big mistake taking this route of going up to the point and then dropping it before fully examining it. IMHO
In Demspeak, that is the equivalent of waving a white flag".
Outrageous....you do not drag a wounded through the streets to go to the hospital. The man may have even already died.
"Friendly." "Lovingly." Arghhhhhhh......She thinks we are all stupid and that the great she can mold the narrative and we won't get it.
OK, Mr. Tough Guy, I guess we will "go" after Rice and then "go" after you.
That sounds good to me...we will thank you for being available.
How about that, Sweet Cheeks..........what a blowhard.
But, exactly who is behind the curtain, calling all the shots?
Whoa, Whoa, WHOA!
This HAS to be revealed!
Who didn't allow them to read the report...this IS HUGE...whoever did should be indicted for witness tampering at the very least.
I wonder how much the witnesses fear for their careers, for their lives.
Their fear levels must be off the chart!
And, by the way...where ARE the witnesses?
Hillary from Chicago. Obama with strong ties to Chicago.
Everything that these two people do is so Chicago mob-style.
Those poor witnesses must be so stressed - by what happened in Benghazi and how they are being treated now.
PTSD? I really ache for these witnesses. Maybe they are afraid s***l****.
I would be if the power of the presidency on down was breathing wickedly and threateningly down my collar!
But, there you go. The people who do these things are barbaric, uncivilized, and a bunch of other things. They are subhuman.
Amen hummingbird ... Amen.
She has not yet done a piece on the Benghazi hearings, but some other folks are heating this up.
Also, the US Military and British are on alert (right now) over a deteriorating situation in Tripoli, Libya.
Her "where-would-you-like-to-be-posted" question was totally creepy.
Thrown in to unsettle the hearings or just stupid?
Great idea. How can Issa be reached? He could mull it over with the R side of the aisle.
Run it up the flag pole and see who salutes....
Compare the faces of the 4 who were murdered against the two.
Sounded like a threat wrapped up in a bribe to me! Totally creepy! The abuse of power coming from this administration and the democrats is breathtaking. They seem to have no fear of prosecution or even being called to task for the most flagrant violations of their oath and the laws of this country anymore.
I have been watching politics closely now for a number of years and have never seen anything like the current crop of criminals running this country right now...NEVER!!
RummyChuck - I'm going to really think this through.
My 1st thought was as you post. But, in less than 30 seconds, I said:
I'm not feeling too charitable towards the dems after their theater today.
They are playing with people's destinies and people's lives and not just in Benghazi.
Yes, totally inappropriate.....these kind of deals are usually not so obvious and public.
Usually, it is the dem way to take this kind of business in a quiet, well-lit restaurant. Or at a funeral. Tony Soprano style.
Reeks of bribery. And, threats.
Brazen! Without talking points, they are pretty "ig-nant".
They tell life stories about themselves to run the clock down and then they accuse reps on being like bullies.
We have a rule in the house - disagreements must be in a calm, measured tone or we need to take it outside where the dogs can't hear us. Our two dogs get scarred whenever there is a loud fight on TV or Mr. h and I are having words but aren't yelling. They hide.
I'm not a really noisy person, but I yelled so much during the hearing that the dogs hid.
I shouted at the TV using various expletives (mild) at the dems and cheered on the Reps when they got a good fact in.<
This must be what Mr. hummingbird feels about Spring Madness - whatever its called - brackets and what-nots.
Dem sensitivities - SHUT UP! - did dems pick the wrong day to stop sniffing glue.
Keep those kitties safe and sound inside!
It is his way of inserting himself into history! His words will be written down that he "talked of the poor security".
Connolly belongs to the Party of Talkers, not the Party of Doers.
I remember watching the whole thing unfold on Twitter.
The pictures being posted were not jibing with the "narrative" being presented on the MSM stations.
Impeachment File on B. Hussein Obama, aka Barry Soetoro, a legal citizen of Indonesia.
And I sure hope they have more hearings
And I sure hope they have more hearings
And I sure hope they have more hearings
And I sure hope they have more hearings
Hearings are a waste of time without followup action, besides if they don't happen on the 5:00 O'Clock news, they didn't happen.

PRINCESS ANNE, MD - (Oct. 12, 2010) - More than 30 members of UMES' Drama Society, along with university faculty and staff, will present "God's Trombones: Seven Negro Sermons in Verse and a Prayer" Nov. 4-6. The annual fall theater production begins at 7:30 p.m. each evening at the Ella Fitzgerald Center for the Performing Arts.
The play is inspired by the 1927 book of poems by James Weldon Johnson patterned after traditional African-American religious oratory or "folk sermons" passed along through generations by members of the clergy. The seven poems are: "Listen, Lord—A Prayer," "The Creation," "The Prodigal Son," "Go down Death—A Funeral Sermon," "Noah Built the Ark," "The Crucifixion," "Let My People Go" and "The Judgment Day."
"We're going to bring these Bible stories that the community grew up with to life," said Dr. Della Dameron-Johnson, director of the UMES Drama Society and assistant professor of English and Modern Languages. "Our lighting and set design teams are creating authentic settings to support the actors. We even have an ark, 'animals,' an old-time casket, a crucifixion scene and other surprises."
The UMES Gospel Choir will joined by area gospel soloists from various community churches to lend their talent to this year's production by stepping in to provide a smooth transition from scene to scene. "The music will reinforce the message in the theatrical performance," said Dameron-Johnson. "Liturgical or 'praise' dancing by talented university students will also add a new element to the production."
Tickets will be sold at the door: $5 for the public, $3 for senior citizens and $2 for UMES students. For more information, call 410-651-6575.

Hi, I was thinking of starting a Plant and Seed society - Edinburgh Uni- and have the based at the foret Cafe.
I thought the society can hold workshops on seeds germinating, plant propagation, taking cuttings, potting up plants, etc...
Maybe our first project can start by making the forest green and tackling the garden? Also how to keep your flat green and maybe eventually promote window boxes and plants in Edinburgh.
What would the people in forest think of this idea? Also would anyone be interested to join??

Topic: How to use dynamic finders?
I'm new to rails, but I'm building a baking journal app and having issue with my Ingredient model as whenever I input an ingredient on the entry form I'm creating a new ingredient each time. What I want to do is check if the ingredient table already has that ingredient, and if so to link it, if not, create it. So for example, I create a new Pizza entry, and I type "flour", "water", "salt" for the ingredients. All these records already exist in my ingredients table, so I want to just reference those instead of creating a new one. I heard that dynamic finders would do what I want, but I'm not able to get that to work as I don't know how to access it from the form... This is my entries controller new action where I define a dynamic finder:
def new
@entry = Entry.new
@ingredient = Ingredient.where(params[:ingredient]).first_or_create()
respond_to do |format|
format.html # new.html.erb
format.xml { render :xml => @entry }
My models accept nested attributes so that I'm able to submit entries and ingredients and steps etc from all the same form. Here are my relevant models:
class Entry < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :user
has_many :entry_ingredients
has_many :ingredients, :through => :entry_ingredients
has_many :steps
accepts_nested_attributes_for :entry_ingredients, :allow_destroy => true
accepts_nested_attributes_for :steps, :reject_if => lambda { |s| s[:description].blank? }, :allow_destroy => true
class Ingredient < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :entry_ingredients
has_many :entries, :through => :entry_ingredients
class EntryIngredient < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :entry
belongs_to :ingredient
belongs_to :unit
accepts_nested_attributes_for :ingredient, :reject_if => lambda { |a| a[:name].blank? }, :allow_destroy => true
and here is my view code, this resides within a fields_for :entry_ingredients on the _form partial:
<%= f.fields_for :ingredient do |builder| %>
<%= builder.label :name %>
<%= builder.text_field :name, :class => "ingredient_field" %>
<% end %>
<%= f.label :quantity %>
<%= f.text_field :quantity, :class => "ingredient_quantity" %>
<%= f.label :unit_id, "Unit" %>
<%= f.select :unit_id, Unit.all.map { |u| [u.name, u.id] }, { :prompt => "Please Select" }, { :class => "ingredient_unit" } %>
<%= f.hidden_field :_destroy, :class => "delete_ingredient" %>
<%= link_to "Remove", "#", :class => "remove_fields" %>
How do I get this to work? Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Skip to comments.On Exorcism and Exorcists: An Evangelical View
Posted on 11/17/2010 10:49:20 AM PST by wmfights
A flurry of media attention was directed in recent days to a meeting on exorcism organized by Roman Catholic bishops. The meeting, held in Baltimore, drew fifty bishops and sixty priests who learned how to discern if an individual is truly possessed by a demon and how to conduct an exorcism when needed.
Rachel Zoll of The Associated Press reported that the program of the meeting was intended to outline the scriptural basis of evil, instruct clergy on evaluating whether a person is truly possessed, and review the prayers and rituals that comprise an exorcism.
Major media reported two different angles on the story, with some, such as Zoll, outlining the lack of enthusiasm among American Catholics for the rite and others, such as Laurie Goodstein of The New York Times, explaining that the handful of priests now qualified to be exorcists are overwhelmed with requests from people who fear they are possessed by the Devil.
Goodstein did report a significant hesitation on the part of many American Catholics and cynicism about exorcism on the part of many priests. Still, there is a growing demand among grassroots Catholics.
Not everyone who thinks they need an exorcism actually does need one, explained Bishop Thomas J. Paprocki of Springfield, Illinois, the main force behind calling the event. Its only used in those cases where the Devil is involved in an extraordinary sort of way in terms of actually being in possession of the person.
R. Scott Appleby, a professor of American Catholic history at the University of Notre Dame, told Goodstein that the effort is, in effect, a way of the church stressing its hierarchical spiritual power, since only priests and members of the hierarchy can perform the rite. Its a strategy for saying: We are not the Federal Reserve, and we are not the World Council of Churches. We deal with angels and demons.
Bishop Paprocki said: But its rare, its extraordinary, so the use of exorcism is also rare and extraordinary . . . . But we have to be prepared.
So, why is there no evangelical rite of exorcism? We deal with angels and demons, too, right? The media attention to the Catholic meeting raises this issue anew.
Evangelical Christians do believe in the existence, malevolence, and power of the Devil and demons. About these things, the New Testament is abundantly clear. We must resist any effort to demythologize the New Testament in order to deny the existence of these evil forces and beings. At the same time, we must recognize quickly that the Devil and demons are not accorded the powers often ascribed to them in popular piety. The Devil is indeed a threat, as Peter made clear when he warned: Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. [1 Peter 5:8]
The New Testament is also clear that very real cases of demonic possession were encountered by Jesus and his followers. Jesus liberated afflicted individuals as he commanded the demons to flee, and they obeyed him. Likewise, the Apostle Paul performed exorcisms as he confronted the powers of evil and darkness in his ministry.
A closer look at the crucial passages involved reveals no rite of exorcism, however, just the name of Jesus and the proclamation of the Gospel. Likewise, there is no notion of a priestly ministry of ordained exorcists in the New Testament.
The weapons of our warfare are spiritual, and the powers that the forces of darkness most fear are the name of Jesus, the authority of the Bible, and the power of his Gospel.
Evangelicals do not need a rite of exorcism, because to adopt such an invention would be to surrender the high ground of the Gospel. We are engaged in spiritual warfare every minute of every day, whether we recognize it or not. There is nothing the demons fear or hate more than evangelism and missions, where the Gospel pushes back with supernatural power against their possessions, rendering them impotent and powerless. Every time a believer shares the Gospel and declares the name of Jesus, the demons and the Devil lose their power.
Furthermore, there is absolutely no New Testament evidence that a believer in Christ can be possessed by demons. Tormented and tempted? Sure. But never possessed. Once we are united with Christ by faith and given the gift of the indwelling Spirit, there is no way a demon can possess us. As the Apostle John reminds us, Little children, you are from God and have overcome them, for he who is in you is greater than he who is in the world. [1 John 4:4]
So, we should respect the power of the Devil and his demons, but never fear them. We do not need a rite of exorcism, only the name of Jesus. We are not given a priesthood of exorcists for every believer is armed with the full promise of the Gospel, united with Christ by faith, and indwelt by the Holy Spirit.
Let the final word come from the Apostle Paul:
Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and, as shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace. In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one; and take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God, praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. To that end keep alert with all perseverance, making supplication for all the saints, and also for me, that words may be given to me in opening my mouth boldly to proclaim the mystery of the gospel, for which I am an ambassador in chains, that I may declare it boldly, as I ought to speak. [Ephesians 6:10-20]
Evangelicals do not need a rite of exorcism, because to adopt such an invention would be to surrender the high ground of the Gospel. We are engaged in spiritual warfare every minute of every day, whether we recognize it or not. There is nothing the demons fear or hate more than evangelism and missions, where the Gospel pushes back with supernatural power against their possessions, rendering them impotent and powerless. Every time a believer shares the Gospel and declares the name of Jesus, the demons and the Devil lose their power.
similar discussion earlier
There are times that K scares the devil out of me. Does that count?
Because evangelicals don't have "rites." They have the authority of the priesthood of the believer.
That must be why there are something like 23000 different brands of Evangelical Protestantism.
Some brands believe they are saved regardless of their sins, others that believe they have no free will, and so on.
Here's the common denominator: they all believe like crazy, and they do it on their own authority.
Which is very different than the ministerial Priesthood of the ordained.
"That must be why there are something like 23000 different brands of Evangelical Protestantism. "
True, but there is a wide variety in Roman Catholicism, too.
You have the gay group, whose name escapes me, and the Latin Rite, Catholics Pro-Choice, and you could cite the various Jesuits/Franciscans/etc., all the different orders. You may say they are all under one authority (the Pope or the Holy See); but Protestants would say the same, they are under the authority of Jesus and the Bible.
Of course liberal Protestants, those who deny Christ, would not claim to be under the authority of anything. Then again, neither would liberal Catholics.
I was just reading here on FR five minutes ago about ecclias in - Holland? - groups of Roman Catholics doing their own thing because of a priest shortage.
I will grant you any number of arguments against Protestantism... but the doctrine of the priesthood of the believer goes back to the Nicene Creed and the first ecumenical council.
You have the gay group, whose name escapes me, and the Latin Rite, Catholics Pro-Choice, and you could cite the various Jesuits/Franciscans/etc., all the different orders. You may say they are all under one authority (the Pope or the Holy See); but Protestants would say the same, they are under the authority of Jesus and the Bible.
Not exactly- the gay and pro-choice groups are dissident at the minimal, to the point of de facto schismatic in some cases. Jesuits/Franciscans and all the other religious orders have different charisms or missions, but they all believe in the same faith.
So what.
Jesus Christ will sort out who are His.
Too many gods about.
Thanks for the ping.
Derek Prince was tops in such matters.
Derek Prince was tops in such matters.
Unger is good.
John Bevere also.
How can prayers that repeatedly invoke the name of Jesus Christ "surrender the high ground of the Gospel"?
Furthermore, there is absolutely no New Testament evidence that a believer in Christ can be possessed by demons.
Any Catholic exorcist will tell you that it's exceedingly rare -- almost unheard of -- for a believing, practicing Catholic in a state of grace to be possessed. (And for that matter, that would probably go for Christians of other confessions as well.)
On the other hand, the easiest, fastest, most efficacious way to become possessed is to start dabbling in the occult, or becoming personally involved with people who are involved in the occult.
People who get involved in these generally do so with the knowledge they have crossed a line clearly established and understood. So I rather think the religions who "Borrow" Christian verbage and entice people into false religions by doing so are far more dangerous than an obvious occult.
Occults don't mask who they are...you know going in. But false religions who paint Christianity over their true agendas do far more damage to an individual. Their deceptions at creating a false front fall into line with the father of deceptions and how he works. Hidden rites or various steps to Godhood or enlightenment place an individual on a ladder to a counterfeit and imposter Godhead..no matter the title otherwise given. Generally and in time Spiritual encounters are encouraged and sought after...via testimonies of others who lay claim to such. People then follow thru and do encounter aperations and entities of the Spirit world fully believing these are of God when in fact the opposite is true.
Again and in time people's faith is then based on these experiences... and more and more are required to maintain their faith until they have fallen from grace. The road back is long and trying...some never do come back, rather are bound tightly for years and years. For this the testimony they might have otherwise had is lost forever.....oftentimes psycological issues develope as well.
My point is whenever people "believe" they are seeing the "unseen" spiritual world they had better look carefully at the road they are on and take heed....they leave themsleves open for demonic influence in every way.
"Not exactly- the gay and pro-choice groups are dissident at the minimal, to the point of de facto schismatic in some cases. Jesuits/Franciscans and all the other religious orders have different charisms or missions, but they all believe in the same faith. "
But we'd say that the Unitarians and the liberal Presbyterians and the homo staffed Episcopalians are dissident at minimal, absolutely to the point of de facto. We'd say that Bible believing Baptists, Lutherans, Presbyterians, etc have different "missions" in a sense but we all believe in the same essential faith.
That was my point.
Roman Catholics often seem to hold that they are unified and Protestants are not. I don't agree.
From my point of view your post #20 contained much wisdom.
But in terms of raw spiritual danger, I think religions which borrow Christian verbiage to dress up what amounts to a naked appeal to spiritual or theological pride are the most dangerous of all. Remember that it was pride that lead to Satan's fall in the first place.
Having seen the results of people who tread into the spirit world one can get a general overall view of where that road leads. Unfortunately many all too easily today are mislead to travel that road..and it is increasing in numbers who are willingly going there...and that who claim Christianity yet are not grounded in what God requires and or warns us about. Therefore many are targets and fall easily into counterfeit belief systems, who breath just enough Christianity to hook and then indoctrinate the masses.
The church needs to be warning of these as their are many infiltrations occurring in the body of Christ..... yet are today so preoccupied with building the programs and buildings on the backs of the saints they have lost sight of their mission to "equip the saints". As a result without the "armor of God" and knowing what that entails and how to use it many more will fall prey to the wiles of the enemy of God.
Thank you for your post.
"Protestants — that umbrella terminology that is used by groups as diverse as calvinists, unitarians, anglicans, lutherans, pentecostals, christian scientists or even those saying they are the fruit of the reformation like Seventh Day Adventists or the 4th generation protestants like Mormons or other Great Apostasy theology proponents are unified in only one belief and that is not a belief in Christ in the Trinitarian sense... "
I agree. I think the use of the word "Protestants" is too broadly applied. "Protestants" in my opinion should refer to those who basically agree with the 95 theses posted by Luther. Instead, it basically means "not-a-Roman-Catholic."
"All acknowledge the bishop of Rome as the primus inter pares and all share the same dogma and theology. Disciplines may differ (for example, in the Eastern Catholic Churchs, you may have married men becoming priests (but not priests getting married)), however dogma is the same."
I know. But I still think there is a similarity, let's say, between evangelical Baptists, Presbyterians, Congregationalists and Methodists. We all share the same basic doctrines, encapsulated in the Apostle's creed; we all acknowledge Jesus as head of the Church and the Bible as the only source of doctrine.
We differ in "minors," that is, church government, and/or finer points of doctrine. But we accept one another as fellow Christians.
Baptist baptize on profession of faith only; Presbyterians baptize infants of believers. It's a different "rite."
"Thirdly, the politico-groups you refer to such as politicos are just that — political groups, no different than "Democrats for Romney" or "Republicans for Romney" or "Chinese Juggling belly-dancers with blonde hair choosing to dance the tango with Irish kathak dancers" —> these are not Churches or a Church dogma. They are purely individual initiative groups."
Absolutely, and I don't like them intertwined in the "Protestant" or "Christian" groups. Presbyterians for Choice are no more Christians than Gay Catholics are. They are just usurpers, who slap the name upon themselves and then behave horribly and agitate for evil, thereby imputing evil to the Presbyterians or the Catholics they claim to "represent."
I don't see schismatic or heretic groups as representatives of Roman Catholics; and I don't like it when schismatic or heretic groups are accepted as representative of Protestants. It is not fair in either case.
Similarly, I don't hold the sexually subversive priests in the news lately as representatives of Catholics; nor should the sexually depraved big name 'evangelists' in the news lately be considered representative of Protestants.
yes, that's my point. Within each of these groups there is unity, but among the umbrella term or even in the particular sense you use it, there is a lot of diversity on basic dogma, which is why they are separate groups. If one don't agree with Catholic dogma, one is free to leave.
Not really — between evangelical, non-Calvinist Baptists and Presbyterians and between Presbyterians and Methodists there is a vast gulf in the teachings on salvation for example. The basic dogma is not the same.
"Not really between evangelical, non-Calvinist Baptists and Presbyterians and between Presbyterians and Methodists there is a vast gulf in the teachings on salvation for example. The basic dogma is not the same."
I'd disagree. We can all recite the Apostle's Creed.

Topic: Ruby Basics Question...
Hi before I tackle Rails I am working my way through the Manning "Ruby For Rails" book so I can grasp OOP basics and know what is going on in my apps.
Although the book is excellent I am trying to understand if I have this simple basic jargon correct.
if you have :
obj = Object.new
does obj = Object name , Object = Class name and new = method call with the "." being the operator to "call" the method?
If anyone can break it down better or give me any better explanation links would be appreciated.

Who would you start out of these 2 WRS:
TJ Hoosh
Josh Cribbs
Just picked up Cribbs this week, on a hunch that the long week allowed Daboll to construct more plays for him. Hoosh has been a disappointment all year, but he's the safe pick. Final four of my fantasy league.
Here is the rest of my starters:
Ray Rice
S. Jackson or Ricky Williams (havent decided yet)
Desean Jackson
Derrick Mason

How does Skyla work?
Skyla releases small amounts of a progestin hormone locally into your uterus at a slow and continuous rate. It is estrogen-free and works continuously for up to 3 years.
Permanent Birth Control
(levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system) 52 mg
(levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system) 13.5 mg
If you have a pelvic infection, get infections easily, or have certain
cancers, don't use Skyla.
Less than 1% of users get a serious pelvic
infection called PID. If you have persistent pelvic
or stomach pain or
if Skyla comes out, tell your doctor... continue reading below
Skyla is a type of intrauterine device, also known as an IUD. But what is that, exactly?
An IUD is a small, t-shaped device that's placed in your uterus by your OB/GYN during a routine visit.
Getting an IUD is nonsurgical and typically takes just a few minutes. Once in place, it provides continuous, highly effective birth control.
Everyone is different, and some women may experience discomfort or spotting during or after placement. These symptoms should go away shortly. If they don't, contact your OB/GYN. Within 4 to 6 weeks, you should return for a follow-up visit to make sure that everything is okay.
Skyla is an IUD that releases a low dose of hormones and is over 99% effective at preventing pregnancy for up to 3 years.
Skyla is FDA-approved and can be used whether or not you have had a child. It is available by prescription only.
Skyla releases small amounts of a progestin hormone locally into your uterus at a slow and continuous rate. It is estrogen-free and works continuously for up to 3 years.
Skyla (levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system) is a hormone-releasing IUD that prevents pregnancy for up to 3 years.Important Safety Information
Skyla does not protect against HIV or STDs.
Only you and your healthcare provider can decide if Skyla is right for you. Skyla is available by prescription only.
For important risk and use information about Skyla, please see the Full Prescribing Information.
Mirena (levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system) is a hormone-releasing system placed in your uterus to prevent pregnancy for as long as you want for up to 5 years. Mirena also treats heavy periods in women who choose intrauterine contraception.Important Safety Information
Only you and your healthcare provider can decide if Mirena is right for you. Mirena is recommended for women who have had a child.
Mirena does not protect against HIV or STDs.
Available by prescription only.
For important risk and use information about Mirena, please see the Full Prescribing Information.
Essure® is permanent birth control that works with your body to create a natural barrier against pregnancy.Important Safety Information
Essure is not right for you if you are uncertain about ending your fertility, can have only one insert placed, suspect you are pregnant or have been pregnant within the past 6 weeks, have had your tubes tied, have an active or recent pelvic infection, or have a known allergy to contrast dye.
Tell your doctor if you are taking immunosuppressants or think you may have a nickel allergy.
WARNING: You must continue to use another form of birth control until you have your Essure Confirmation Test (3 months after the procedure) and your doctor tells you that you can rely on Essure for birth control. For some women, it can take longer than three months for Essure to be effective, requiring a repeat confirmation test at 6 months. Talk to your doctor about which method of birth control you should use during this period. Women using an intrauterine device need to switch to another method. If you rely on Essure for birth control before receiving confirmation from your doctor, you are at risk of getting pregnant.
WARNING: Be sure you are done having children before you undergo the Essure procedure. Essure is a permanent method of birth control.
During the procedure: In clinical trials some women experienced mild to moderate pain (9.3%). Your doctor may be unable to place one or both Essure® inserts correctly. In rare cases, part of an Essure insert may break off or it may puncture the fallopian tube requiring surgery to repair. If breakage occurs, your doctor may remove the piece or let it leave your body during your period. Your doctor may recommend a local anesthetic. Ask your doctor about the risks associated with this type of anesthesia.
Immediately following the procedure: In clinical trials some women experienced mild to moderate pain (12.9%) and/or cramping (29.6%), vaginal bleeding (6.8%), and pelvic or back discomfort for a few days. Some women experienced nausea and/or vomiting (10.8%) or fainting. You should arrange to have someone take you home after the procedure. In rare instances, an Essure insert may be expelled from the body.
During the Essure Confirmation Test: You will be exposed to very low levels of radiation, as with most x-rays. In rare instances, women may experience spotting and/or infection.
Long-term Risks: There are reports of chronic pelvic pain in women possibly related to Essure. An Essure insert may migrate into the lower abdomen and pelvis and may require surgery for removal. No birth control method is 100% effective. Women who have Essure are more likely to have an ectopic pregnancy (pregnancy outside the uterus) if they get pregnant. This can be life-threatening. The Essure insert is made of materials that include a nickel-titanium alloy. Patients who are allergic to nickel may have an allergic reaction to the inserts. Symptoms include rash, itching and hives.
The safety and effectiveness of Essure has not been established in women under 21 or over 45 years old.
Essure does not protect against HIV or other sexually transmitted diseases.
Talk to your doctor about Essure and whether it is right for you.
You can also report any adverse events or product technical complaints involving the Essure system immediately by calling 877-ESSURE1 (877-377-8731).

Environmental education has failed because it's not keeping pace with environmental degradation."idea that environmental education should provide us with the tools we need to make informed decisions, but I don't believe we're making informed decisions as a society commensurate with the pace of our consumption of the environment, our destruction of the environment. So if one looks at environmental education from the standpoint of getting bang for the buck spent, so to speak — and we think that bang for the buck should be measured in tangible impacts such as reduction of greenhouse-gas emissions — it's just not happening.
The affluent kids are oversaturated — they can quote Aldo Leopold, but it's just academic to them."Why should they care? I don't think environmental education asks that often enough. So we initiated a cleanup program on the water. We partnered with a local kayak manufacturer and took these kids out on the water, which was engaging and exciting for them — most of them had never been on water, much less paddled in a kayak. We trained individual teachers and parents in the use of the equipment and then gave them open access — they could bring their students whenever they wanted. At the same time, we provided open access to other programs that offered hands-on experience — whale watching, marine-mammal rehabilitation — things that kids could get interested in and then take part in as much as they liked.
Students need to learn what moral systems are so that they understand what makes a good society."I'm not sure that we'll be able to develop and put them in place in time to mitigate environmental degradation. I do think that locally and individually, parents and teachers can help. I hear kids in grocery stores telling their parents not to buy this or that product because of its environmental impacts — and I think those lessons come from individual teachers, because that's not an institutional approach. We don't teach externalities.

Cerner is devoted to improving the quality of life for everyone we serve. We seek to enhance communities through the development of healthy and educated individuals. To do this, we also promote entrepreneurial and innovative environments in which our associates, clients, and partners can work to improve the world we live in.
The following principles reflect Cerner's goals for charitable and civic investments. These principles guide how and why our investments are made.
First Hand Foundation
In 1995, Cerner founded the First Hand Foundation to directly fund health-related needs for individual children when insurance and other financial resources have been exhausted. Serving as the primary philanthropic organization supported by Cerner and its associates, company funding (as well as investment income) covers all administrative costs of the foundation. This allows 100 percent of donations from associates and private donors to directly impact the health of a child.
To date, First Hand has impacted more than 164,000 lives in 83 different countries. More than $21 million has been distributed since First Hand's inception. For more information, please visit the First Hand Foundation website.
Economic Impact
Cerner employs nearly 21,000 (and growing!) associates in 23 offices around the globe. Approximately 10,000 associates are based in the Kansas City metro, home of Cerner's World Headquarters. Providing over $830 million in local payroll, Cerner is one of the largest employers in Kansas City.
The economic strength of the Kansas City community is paramount to Cerner and led to the decision to bring our annual Cerner Health Conference home to Kansas City in 2007 and every year since. The Cerner Health Conference brings Cerner clients and industry partners from 19 countries to Kansas City to network and discuss key issues in healthcare. In 2013, the Kansas City Convention and Visitors Association estimated the conference had a $7.2 million economic impact to the city.
Cerner associates are at the core of Cerner's success and growth as a company. Not only do they provide the strength of Cerner's intellectual property, they also serve as a microcosm of the broad healthcare system inspiring innovation and invention on each Cerner campus. If it doesn't work for Cerner associates, it doesn't work for Cerner. Employees enjoy health benefits from Cerner's self-insured health plan, which includes access to an onsite health clinic—business concepts that are expanding throughout Kansas City and beyond.

The inception of computers and information technology changed how businesses are run and managed. The dynamism and versatility of computer technology also brought with it many advantages to businesses. Computing has become part and parcel of any business, whether small scale, midsized or large scale. The use of computers has enabled most companies to achieve better results as compared to previous undertaking. Business computing is all about using the right computer hardware and software, regular computer repair support and maintenance by using firms like www.computerrepairpro.com.au for both macs pcs laptops and servers.. Lack of one of these attributes will yield unfavourable results. The reasons for a business benefiting from regular computer support and maintenance include the following.
Time efficiency and Cost effectiveness: Businesses have changed from being manual to being fully automated and computerized, this aspects runs in all sectors of the business. Regular computer support and maintenance ensures that any faults or break downs in the business are diagnosed and repaired quickly and promptly. Lack of regular computer laptop screen repairs and support might lead to a situation whereby the system might not be working in its full potential thus depriving the firm of revenue and profits. The regular service and support also saves on time and costs that would incurred in case of an imminent catastrophic failure.
Continuity of Business: support and maintenance offered on the computer services offered to a firm always keep track on the health of a system as well as coming up with more efficient ways of carrying out different tasks. Computer being self programming ensure that all aspects of the business are incorporated in one package thus the business will be able to run without much intervention of human beings. This self regulation of computer technology has seen the rise of many businesses which are only manned by a few people.
Regular Updates: A firm offering regular computer support and maintenance always has its eyes on the latest and most advanced computer systems and technology. The service firm will consequently advise the company of the newest technology that is most beneficial to a firm, lack of regular maintenance and support would create a situation whereby a company will be running the vocation using obsolete technology that is ineffective , less efficient as well as costly to maintain due to scarcity of software or upgrade modules. Newer technology is always more efficient and cost effective as compared to older technology.
Comparative Advantage: By working with a good and reliable computer support and maintenance company, a business will receive advisory and tips on the marketing trends affecting the industry. This will originate from the maintenance company that is always in touch with latest developments, the workings of rival company etc. By using the information from the computer support firm, the company might opt to switch to a better technology or discard a computing package thus gaining a comparative advantage over its competitors.
Regular maintenance and support should be considered as a recurrent cost and not a one off cost. Proper maintenance schedules will ensure a company is always on its toes and well covered in case of any system failure. A rule of thumb is always to go for a well known and reputable computer service company in order to gain maximum benefits.

Prenatal Yoga
Yoga's popularity has exploded across the country in recent years. Many people find its mixture of strengthening, balancing, stretching, relaxation, and breathing to be a great way to stay in shape and feeling great. During your pregnancy, yoga can be an excellent way to tone your muscles, increase your stamina, and even prepare for labor.
The breathing and relaxation techniques used in most styles of yoga are ideal for managing labor pain. It also trains you to focus on different parts of your body individually, helping you become more connected with your body, which is particularly helpful during labor. In addition, many of the squatting positions help strengthen and open the pelvic floor muscles; and its non-impact aerobic component strengthens the heart muscles, increases lung elasticity, and improves circulation and digestion. Yoga can also help you maintain good posture throughout your pregnancy because it focuses on core, back, and shoulder strength.
Women go through many emotional and psychological changes during pregnancy and yoga can help ease some of the stress. One of the things that separates yoga from other kinds of exercise is the integration of each posture with an inhale and exhale. This connection helps you breathe more deeply, which can trigger feelings of deep relaxation and well-being. In addition, joining a prenatal yoga class can be a great way to meet other moms-to-be who may be experiencing the same emotions and provide a comforting community.
However, there are some special precautions you should take when practicing yoga during your pregnancy. Avoid poses that require you to lay on your back or belly, especially later in your pregnancy. Inverted poses are not prohibited, but probably should be limited to early pregnancy as the pressure of the baby against your lungs may make it increasingly difficult to breath and it may be harder to keep your balance in inverted positions as your baby grows. Don't push or pull yourself into a pose too far; remember that you are more flexible during your pregnancy because of the hormone relaxin, so you can actually overstretch your muscles and ligaments. Deep twists from the belly can compress your internal organs, including your uterus; instead, twist more gently from your shoulders. You should also avoid any jumping moves and skip any breathing exercises that require you to hold your breath or perform a succession of rapid inhales and exhales. Pregnancy is not the time to take your yoga to a new, more intense level. Take it easy and play it safe.
There are many different styles of yoga, each with its own focus, poses, and level of intensity and difficulty. With the exception of Bikram, which is performed in a hot room, yoga (with the modifications discussed above) is considered safe and beneficial for women experiencing a normal, healthy pregnancy.
Here's a quick look at some common styles of yoga:
Also known as power yoga, this style is preferred by many athletes because it focuses on strength, flexibility, and stamina. Students move quickly from one pose to another in a continuous flow that combines inhales and exhales with movement. The poses are usually more difficult than those performed in other yoga styles and Ashtanga is recommended for experienced yoga students and fit individuals.

University: Tampereen teknillinen yliopisto - Tampere University of Technology
Faculty: Tieto- ja sähkötekniikan tiedekunta – Faculty of Computing and Electrical Engineering
Department: Tietokonetekniikan laitos – Department of Computer Systems
Recently, people are demanding more and more social, ubiquitous and cognitive features on their smart phones to enhance communication and interactions between users. Indoor relative positioning technology provides potential to develop such applications. Several of projects and products of positioning systems have been carried out with different positioning technologies through past few years to demonstrate their potential features and abilities. The object of this thesis is to study and develop a practical relative positioning solution based on received signal strength measurement for locating neighbouring mass market mobile devices using passive scanning. Thus, we have implemented a python application for Linux-based mobile devices to demonstrate features and solutions. The results of the proposed positioning technique show it is feasible for implementing a practical relative-positioning application. Experiments have been carried out successfully to demonstrate the positioning technique with up to five heterogeneous devices in short range. /Kir11
