Chapter 15
Saul is commanded to smite and destroy the Amalekites and all that they have—He saves some animals to sacrifice—Saul is rejected as king and told that to obey is better than sacrifice—Samuel destroys Agag.
1 Samuel also said unto Saul, The Lord sent me to
2 Thus saith the Lord of hosts, I remember that which
3 Now go and smite Amalek, and utterly
4 And Saul gathered the people together, and numbered them in Telaim, two hundred thousand footmen, and ten thousand men of Judah.
5 And Saul came to a city of Amalek, and laid wait in the valley.
6 ¶And Saul said unto the
7 And Saul smote the Amalekites from Havilah until thou comest to
8 And he took
9 But Saul and the people spared Agag, and the best of the sheep, and of the oxen, and of the fatlings, and the lambs, and all that was good, and would not utterly destroy them: but every thing that was vile and refuse, that they destroyed utterly.
10 ¶Then came the word of the Lord unto Samuel, saying,
12 And when Samuel rose early to meet Saul in the morning, it was told Samuel, saying, Saul came to Carmel, and, behold, he set him up a place, and is gone about, and passed on, and gone down to Gilgal.
13 And Samuel came to Saul: and Saul said unto him, Blessed be thou of the Lord: I have performed the commandment of the Lord.
14 And Samuel said, What meaneth then this bleating of the sheep in mine ears, and the lowing of the oxen which I hear?
15 And Saul said, They have brought them from the Amalekites: for the people spared the best of the sheep and of the oxen, to sacrifice unto the Lord thy God; and the rest we have utterly destroyed.
16 Then Samuel said unto Saul, Stay, and I will tell thee what the Lord hath said to me this night. And he said unto him, Say on.
17 And Samuel said, When thou wast little in thine own sight, wast thou not made the head of the tribes of Israel, and the Lord
18 And the Lord sent thee on a journey, and said, Go and utterly destroy the sinners the Amalekites, and fight against them until they be consumed.
19 Wherefore then didst thou not obey the voice of the Lord, but didst fly upon the spoil, and didst evil in the sight of the Lord?
20 And Saul said unto Samuel, Yea, I have obeyed the voice of the Lord, and have gone the way which the Lord sent me, and have brought Agag the king of Amalek, and have utterly destroyed the Amalekites.
21 But the people took of the spoil, sheep and oxen, the chief of the things which should have been utterly destroyed, to sacrifice unto the Lord thy God in Gilgal.
22 And Samuel said, Hath the Lord as great
23 For
24 ¶And Saul said unto Samuel, I have
25 Now therefore, I pray thee, pardon my sin, and turn again with me, that I may worship the Lord.
26 And Samuel said unto Saul, I will not return with thee: for thou hast rejected the word of the Lord, and the Lord hath rejected thee from being king over Israel.
27 And as Samuel turned about to go away, he laid hold upon the skirt of his mantle, and it
28 And Samuel said unto him, The Lord hath rent the
29 And also
30 Then he said, I have sinned: yet honour me now, I pray thee, before the elders of my people, and before Israel, and turn again with me, that I may worship the Lord thy God.
31 So Samuel turned again after Saul; and Saul worshipped the Lord.
32 ¶Then said Samuel, Bring ye hither to me Agag the king of the Amalekites. And Agag came unto him delicately. And Agag said, Surely the bitterness of death is past.
33 And Samuel said, As thy sword hath made women childless, so shall thy mother be childless among women. And Samuel hewed Agag in pieces before the Lord in Gilgal.
34 ¶Then Samuel went to Ramah; and Saul went up to his house to Gibeah of Saul.
35 And Samuel came no more to see Saul until the day of his death: nevertheless Samuel mourned for Saul: and

Anyone interested in started a bleach power level chart? I've seen a few attempts around the internet and they are terrible. I understand slapping power levels into bleach is harder than the DBZ/GT series because there are no definite power level stated in the manga. However we can make a few easy assumptions:
Lets take the first manga chapter where we see Ichigo easily defeat 4 skateboard guys. We also see a completely helpless ghost. I'm going to break it down to Ichigo, skateboard guys, and the ghost.
Ghost girl level = 2Lets assume that a baby would be power level 0.
Is the ghost stronger than a baby? Probably.
Using DBZ as a reference as seen here: http://www.myfavoritegames.com/dbz/p...evels(new).htm
Is the girl (as a ghost) stronger than an old farmer with a gun? No.
We can assume that the ghost about level 2.
Skateboard guy level (each one) = 4Ok so each one of these skateboard guys is going to be stronger than a little girl ghost or no ghost.
Would one of these guys be, say, twice as strong as a little girl? Yes.
Are these skateboard guys as strong as an old farmer with a gun? I would say possibly. These guys aren't very brave so for the sake of the argument lets just say that these guys are around level 4.
Ichigo (human form) level = 45Right so now lets look at Ichigo. He destroys the first guys easily. He could be 4 times as strong as one guy.
Considering that Ichigo is taking on 4 guys at once (whether they fight or not), he knows he is stronger than all 4 put together.
Ichigo is at least level 16.
Is Ichigo trying? No.
Ichigo is at least level 32.
Is Ichigo mad/serious? No.
Ichigo would probably be about level 45.
Now there is a short hollow/Rukia fight scene but we will skip it and go to when Rukia and Ichigo interact in Ichigo's room.
Now if we go back to the first hollow Rukia killed we get this:Rukia gets kicked by Ichigo when he's not serious and she isn't hurt at all. Rukia then easily binds Ichigo with a low Kido.
Rukia is at least level 16.
Is Rukia trying? No.
She is at least level 32.
Is she mad/serious? No.
Rukia is probably around level 64.
It is confirmed that Ichigo and Rukia are near the same level as you see them both get swatted by the hollow(pages 33 and 37) and they are hurt about the same amount. Ichigo could have been hurt more but the baseball bat absorbed some of the damage.
Is the hollow twice as strong as Rukia? Probably not since she's able to slice into it's arm.
Hollow is not level 128.
Since the hollow is able to damage them he has to be higher than their current state.
Hollow is at least 32.
Is the hollow trying? I would say kinda?
Hollow is level 38.
Is the hollow mad/serious? No.
Hollow level around 65.
Ichigo gains all of Rukia's power.
Ichigo would be max level 109.
Is Ichigo twice as strong as the hollow? No. It takes him 3 strikes to take the monster out.
However, was it hard for him to kill the hollow? Not really.
You will also notice that Rukia only intended on giving Ichigo half of her power. That would have made Ichigo's power level be about 77.
Rukia new that half of her power would give Ichigo enough to kill the hollow.
So you add it all up and for the first chapter of the manga you get the start of the power level that looks something like this:Rukia max level is around 64. Is she twice as strong as the hollow? Possibly, but her first strike wasn't clean through.
Was Rukia trying when she killed the hollow? More than she wanted to show.
I would peg this first hollow around level 35.
Girl Ghost - 2
Skateboarders - 4
Ichigo(Human) - 45
Hollow 1 -35
Rukia -64
Hollow 2 -65
Ichigo(Shinigami) -109
Now go to the other end of the scale and lets start with finale of the last arch.
Ichigo and Aizen could level mountains with the air from their attacks. Are we ever going to see people this powerful again? IF we do it wont be for a long time!
I think it would be safe to say that Ichigo was the pinnacle.
We will give him power level 1,000,000.
Aizen was stupid strong but it was clear that Ichigo was stronger.
We can give Aizen a number something like 990,000.
Fill in the blanks!

Central Park
Lifted hands
Good morning, beloved,
We had a park day yesterday: meaning: we all went to the park to meet up with friends. 🙂 It is a semi-organized event as other homeschoolers come and play as well and we never know who is going to show. Yesterday, a new family came to the park and sat down. They just had moved to the area from Atlanta…they were here because of a job transfer.
Now, they were starting over. New friends, new church, new life…and I could see myself in her eyes two years earlier almost to the day. The past two years danced before my eyes and I was just so grateful. It has been two years. Amazing. Many days of pain, yet I am not the woman who moved here two years ago.
Kickball games sprung up. Girls were sitting sharing stories. It was a sunshiny, beautiful, warm day.
We took the kids to see a movie last night and we were all loud. We were laughing and loud and yelling at all the right parts. And I looked around and realized that nobody was interacting like we were…that we were "those people". We sat in the theatre til the end. 😉 The whole ride home everyone was talking over each other in excitement and saying all the lines to each other and having fun laughing…I pause, and I give thanks for this moment.
5 As you know not what is the way of the wind, or how the spirit comes to the bones in the womb of a pregnant woman, even so you know not the work of God, Who does all.
6 In the morning sow your seed, and in the evening withhold not your hands, for you know not which shall prosper, whether this or that, or whether both alike will be good.
The mysteries of the workings of God…amazes me to ponder. These verses are so very reflective and if you think on who wrote, Ecclesiastes, (Solomon) this does make sense. We are never meant to understand God. We were meant to worship!
Jesus spoke of this verse…
8 The wind blows (breathes) where it wills; and though you hear its sound, yet you neither know where it comes from nor where it is going. So it is with everyone who is born of the Spirit.
Jesus uses word pictures so when we see what He describes we remember. So the next time the wind blows on your beautiful, God created face you will remember how the one who is born of the Spirit moves…
14 I will confess and praise You for You are fearful and wonderful and for the awful wonder of my birth! Wonderful are Your works, and that my inner self knows right well.
15 My frame was not hidden from You when I was being formed in secret [and] intricately and curiously wrought [as if embroidered with various colors] in the depths of the earth [a region of darkness and mystery].
Reverence…in awe of what we do not understand, yet are not meant to comprehend.
5 The shades of the dead tremble underneath the waters and their inhabitants.
6 Sheol (the place of the dead) is naked before God, and Abaddon (the place of destruction) has no covering [from His eyes].
7 He it is Who spreads out the northern skies over emptiness and [a]hangs the earth upon or over nothing.
8 He holds the waters bound in His clouds [which otherwise would spill on earth all at once], and the cloud is not rent under them.
9 He covers the face of His throne and spreads over it His cloud.
4 Where were you when I laid the foundation of the earth? Declare to Me, if you have and know understanding.
5 Who determined the measures of the earth, if you know? Or who stretched the measuring line upon it?
6 Upon what were the foundations of it fastened, or who laid its cornerstone,
7 When the morning stars sang together and all the sons of God shouted for joy?
8 Or who shut up the sea with doors when it broke forth andissued out of the womb?—
Pray on, beloved. Pray on..

Munster must beat Racing Métro with a bonus point at Thomond Park if they hope to book a place in the Heineken Cup quarter-finals.
Munster must beat Racing Métro with a bonus point at Thomond Park on Sunday if they hope to book a place in the Heineken Cup quarter-finals.
The two-time champions, who will be without suspended fly-half Ronan O'Gara, are second in their Pool and three points behind leaders Saracens, who are expected to beat Edinburgh on Saturday.
Munster failed to really impress at Murrayfield last week and will need to improve for the visit of the Parisians, who are aiming for a place in the Amlin Challenge Cup quarter-finals.
The Irish lost 22-17 in the French capital when they two teams met in the opening pool game at the Stade de France back in October.
Munster have won their Round 6 tie for the past five seasons and have lost just two home pool games in the history of the Heineken Cup.
20 French clubs have played on Munster soil in the Heineken Cup with no wins to show.
Racing Metro grabbed three tries in the first 20 minutes against Saracens but failed to secure a try bonus point. Alongside Montpellier, Munster have missed fewer tackles than any other club in this tournament, averaging 7.4 misses per game.
Racing have made 13 changes to their starting XV and are without suspended French international hooker Dimitri Szarzewski as well as centre Fabrice Estebanez. Playmaker Juan-Martin Hernandez, wing Juan Imhoff centre Henry Chavancy have been rested. Former Bath pivot Olly Barkley starts at ten.
For Munster, Ian Keatley takes over from O'Gara and Mike Sherry starts ahead of Damien Varley in an otherwise unchanged starting XV. JJ Hanrahan comes onto the bench.
Munster (revised): 15 Felix Jones, 14 Doug Howlett, 13 Keith Earls, 12 James Downey, 11 Simon Zebo, 10 Ian Keatley, 9 Conor Murray, 8 James Coughlan, 7 Tommy O'Donnell, 6 Peter O'Mahony, 5 Donnacha Ryan, 4 Donncha O'Callaghan, 3 BJ Botha, 2 Mike Sherry, 1 Dave Kilcoyne.
Replacements: 16 Damien Varley, 17 Wian du Preez, 18 John Ryan, 19 Billy Holland, 20 Paddy Butler, 21 Duncan Williams, 22 JJ Hanrahan, 23 Casey Laulala,
Racing Metro: 15 Gaetan Germain, 14 Julien Jane, 13 Guillaume Bousses, 12 Alexandre Dumoulin, 11 Sereli Bobo, 10 Olly Barkley, 9 Mathieu Belie, 8 Jacques Cronje, 7 Bernard Le Roux, 6 Antoine Batut, 5 Fabrice METZ, 4 Karim Ghezal, 3 Benjamin Sa, 2 Benjamin Noirot, 1 Julien Brugnaut.
Replacements: 16 Thomas Bianchin, 17 Andrea Lo Cicero, 18 Juan Pablo Orlandi, 19 Jone Qovu Nailiko, 20 Benjamin Fall, 21 Santiago Dellape, 22 Sebastien Descons, 23 Masi Matadigo,

Register's new owners deliver
Let's kick off this year with a nod to a couple of guys who are either very smart or completely insane.
After starting this column nearly three years ago, I heard from people who told me they loved what I wrote – and then apologized for reading the print newspaper. Ironically, it was the media itself that made them feel like it's an all-digital world.
A few months ago, that disappeared. Not the column love. That comes and goes. But now, you also tell me how much you love the newspaper. Yes, the Register is beefier, more in-depth.
It's also revolutionary.
No other company in America is pouring resources into a newspaper like the new owners of the Register.
Consider that major cities such as Detroit, New Orleans and Syracuse, N.Y., either no longer have daily ink-on-paper editions or won't deliver to your door. Yet Orange County is going in the opposite direction. We are increasing staff, offering more color, more pages, more sections – and, yes, we deliver.
Are Register Publisher Aaron Kushner and Freedom President Eric Spitz clueless, or are they outliers?
As with Apple's ridiculously tiny square Nano – recently restored to a rectangle – ease of use is in the mind of the beholder.
Ken Doctor, a newspaper consultant, said last year that, "Print editions are going the way of the steam engine." But in truth, print remains the most efficient method ever invented to digest news and information.
Tony Wong is a 3M executive and a Santa Ana resident who used to work for Apple. He remains an Apple fan, calls their products cool. But he doesn't start his day with an iPhone, MacBook or iPod.
He starts his day by walking down his driveway and getting the newspaper.
Wong, author of a book called "Mooove Ahead! Of the Corporate Herd," can't play Angry Birds, listen to music or make a phone call with his newspaper. But he can review more stories more quickly by flipping pages than by clicking a mouse. He skims some stories, barely glances at others and reads many.
"You can scan two full pages in print," Wong says, "faster than you can swap a page on an iPad."
Nothing beats the Internet for specific and deep research. But nothing beats a newspaper for discovering what you don't know, haven't heard about.
I'll also point out that nothing informs or connects you to your local community better than the Register.
If Kushner, also Freedom's CEO, and Spitz are correct, they may save democracy in America.
Hyperbolic delusion? Perhaps, but …
A former executive with the Nixon Foundation – a man who represented a president who wasn't exactly a media fan – once told me that he feared for the future of Jeffersonian democracy if newspapers continue to decline.
I nodded wisely. Then I looked up Jeffersonian democracy. It's about believing that plain folk have the wisdom to elect their leaders if voters are informed.
The Nixon Foundation executive pointed out that without newspapers, citizens are left relying on advertising and opinion blogs.
Understand, newspaper reporters directly or indirectly are responsible for most of the news we consume. Radio and television have comparatively microscopic staffs and, um, repurpose newspaper stories. The Internet is patchy.
The sticking point for newspapers – and most have both paper and digital versions – is that young adults aren't developing reading habits like previous generations.
When I gave a talk last spring at Cal State Fullerton, I asked students where they got their information. The majority admitted they don't read newspapers – not even the Daily Titan. They said they get their news from the Internet.
But when pressed about specific websites, most were as wide-eyed as monkeys in a hailstorm.
Still, there are indications Kushner and Spitz – who have digital backgrounds – know something newspaper veterans don't.
One thing is certain. Kushner and Spitz know how to make an entrance.
In five months, the Register has hired dozens of reporters, editors and visual experts, launched an eight-page Business section, introduced a twice-weekly Varsity section, splashed color through the newspaper (I thought I was nearly alone caring about comics, but many readers tell me they love the color comics), introduced a daily Focus page, increased coverage in every area, transformed our weekly newspapers into must-reads ...
I'll stop. You have the evidence in your hands.
In an interview with National Public Radio, Senior Vice President and Editor Ken Brusic compares Register changes with other newspapers: "They've been offering less and attempting, in some cases, to charge more for it.
"People won't put up for that sort of thing. So we're now offering more."
Kushner also understands the importance of community connections. He's gone so far as to donate to subscribers $12.4 million in free newspaper advertising to support their favorite charity.
But what's Kushner business plan?
The publisher says his model is more subscriber-based than advertiser based. Still, ad revenues remain a factor. On NPR, Kushner elaborated: "When you see very smart people like Kohl's or J.C. Penney who are actively reducing what they are doing, digitally, in order to do more in print, they're not doing it because it's trendy.
"They're doing it because it's valuable and it works."
By now, you may have noticed I passed on interviewing Kushner, Spitz and Brusic. I made that decision to distance myself from the bosses, although admittedly this column's a kiss.
Here's a brief recap of what's out there: When negotiating to buy the Portland, Maine, newspaper, Kushner infuriated the union by declining to agree to have at least five photographers on staff regardless of circulation.
For transparency, I'll mention one of my oldest and best friends is a national Guild rep and was on the opposite side of the bargaining table. Sorry Tim, but fighting for job quotas in the ultra-competitive 21st century?
Kushner also repeats what he tells the Register newsroom: He firmly believes in the importance of newspapers.
It's the same thing all new owners say after an acquisition. But here's what makes Kushner different: Most follow up by slashing – not hiring.
As for the Register's editor, the OC Weekly quoted Brusic saying of Kushner's business model: "We'd be fools not to have fears."
But Brusic understands that fear is fuel. He also is keenly aware there's far more on the line than the just the Register's future. Speaking of the newspaper industry, the senior vice president said, "If we can't succeed, we can't succeed anywhere else."
Spending millions to produce a better newspaper and hoping revenues will offset the costs takes guts. But more than anything it takes faith.
Faith in you, our readers.

By Bobby Harrison/NEMS Daily Journal
JACKSON – As her mother, Edna, held the Bible Wednesday morning, Angela Turner took the oath of office for the state Senate seat held by her father, Bennie, since 1993.
"His passing was untimely," Turner, D-West Point, said after sitting through her first session in the Mississippi Senate. "The thought of following in his footsteps and continuing what he started was something I wanted to do."
Turner, 41, won a special election last week to replace her father, who died in early December after battling a brain tumor.
In the Senate chamber for her swearing in were her daughter, Kennedy, 11, twin sons, Joshua and Jalen, 8, her sister, Carolyn Karriem, and her fiance', Moses James of Tupelo.
Like her father, Angela Turner served as the Clay County prosecuting attorney before being elected to the Senate. She was in her second term as prosecuting attorney before winning the special election for the Senate seat.
She also practiced law with her father.
Bennie Turner was a strong advocate for public education. Angela Turner says she shares many of her father's political views.
"The district needs to be represented well," Turner said when asked what she hopes to accomplish in the state Senate. "I have intentions to look at legislation using a level head and to apply myself fully."
Senate District 16 includes all of Clay County and parts of Lowndes, Noxubee and Oktibbeha.
She will take the desk previously occupied by her father, next to Sen. Hob Bryan, D-Amory, her father's longtime friend who spoke at his funeral.
Lt. Gov. Tate Reeves, who presides over the Senate, will make committee assignments for Turner.

It has been a long 24 hours of winter weather for much of the region. Parts of western Kentucky remained all rain. Large chunk of Missouri and Illinois was slammed with ice and snow.
I am pretty tired after the event. This will be a short update.
Today will be a quiet weather day - Saturday, as well. Another chance for rain and thunderstorms should arrive around Sunday night or Monday. I will monitor and update some more later tonight.

I am installing a toilet on a concrete floor. The concrete around the rough in is not completely level with the rest of the floor and the 4" drain pipe is coming in at a slight angle.

As this manga goes on its more and more apparent that the World Government and its Marines are the main evil in the world of One Piece, this isn't to say the average marine is a bad person but that the organization as a whole is not good and does not promote peace but only FORCES submission.
It's also apparent that in the world of One Piece, 1 person CAN change the world. And here we have Whitebeard "The Strongest Man in the World" as he is called and with GOOD reason - with 1 punch he can make fissures in the air itself, he can destroy entire islands by lifting a finger, he can stop a flagship size ship without flinching after already had taken enough damage to kill a lesser man, his knowledge is at least on par with Sengoku who is the leader of the marines and he can use that knowledge to become a great commander.
Now what does this epic man do with his life? Does he expose the World Government for torture? for its role in Ohara or turning people into giants (which I doubt was voluntary)? How about when the WG try and stab out any chance of Gol D Roger having a offspring by committing infanticide on several islands that he had 'reportedly' been to? (not to mention the Nobles owning sex slaves and things that may had happened that the manga hasn't said anything about).
No he does none of that, instead he just wants a family, instead of doing the normal thing and finding a wife (which if he just did that I'd understand - but he becomes a world figure) - he becomes a pirate captain, not just a normal pirate captain but the strongest one with many many allies with REAL possibilities. He dies a old man, while failing to save 1 person... that to me is a wasted life.

"I got this sandal because I have a yellow purse and was looking for something casual to pair with it for summer. The color is very close to the color and my purse wich caught my eye online. The shoe itself is comfy and really cute. Can't beat the rewards incentives. The shoes take about a week to recieve in basic shipping. Ordered many shoes in the past and have not had an issue with lost in the mail, or damaged upon receipt. Also like that I can return them in store if there is an issue that would have me wanting too."

It is difficult to provide overall recommendations for elective surgery since this encompasses a large spectrum of procedures. Nearly all PH specialists feel that exercise capacity, type of surgery, type of anesthesia, and what therapy a patient is receiving (for example, whether or not a patient is receiving epoprostenol), all need to be considered in the decision to proceed with elective surgery. While broad guidelines are provided below, each surgical procedure should be evaluated on a case-by-case basis in conjunction with a PH specialist.
PAH patients with less severe functional impairment are more likely to tolerate the stress of elective surgery, and the risks of surgery in such patients is felt to be acceptable by most PAH specialists. However, a number of experts feel that all but the most necessary elective surgery (relief of severe pain, treatment of conditions likely to worsen and require emergency surgery, etc.) should be avoided in any patient with PAH, regardless of degree of functional impairment. In PAH patients with right heart failure, it is recommended that any surgery, other than that needed to treat a life-threatening problem, be avoided. Regardless of how good a patient's exercise capacity is, there is always a risk of complications with surgery, and it is strongly recommended that surgery which is not medically necessary (such as plastic surgery purely to improve appearance) be avoided.
The risks of local anesthesia (numbing medicine under the skin) are low, and this type of anesthesia is recommended when feasible. Any other type of anesthesia (spinal, epidural, and general) carries a greater risk for complications. Lengthy surgeries and procedures involving the chest or abdomen are also felt by the majority of PH specialists to have a higher risk for complications. It is recommended that PAH patients with any exercise impairment consider having any procedure in which local anesthesia is not an option be performed at a center with expertise in the management of PH. Close interaction between patient, surgeon, anesthesiologist and PH specialist is also recommended, and is likely to facilitate safe surgery when necessary.

Title Contenders Ready for Point Season to Start
Seymour April 18- Final prep today for the first point night of 2015 Sunday at the Seymour Speedway.
The five regular season divisions will run for track points for the first time this season. The Thunder Truck division will make its racing debut Sunday on the 1/3 mile banked clay oval. The new class will run bi-weekly, sharing the slot with the spectator eliminators.
The Budweiser IMCA Modifieds could see a different champion this season. Jason Czarapata ran to 5 feature wins last season and picked up his third straight division title. He is tied for third on the all time feature win list with Brad Rohloff at 21. Jason indicated he may cut his weekly schedule back this season, but he said that last season and won the track title.
Rod Snellenberger comes off a three win season last year in the Coor's Light IMCA Stock Car division which he claimed his 6th career title at Seymour. On August 10, he won his 199th career IMCA feature, but had to wait until this season, April 11 right here in Seymour to earn his 200th career feature victory in a thrilling duel with Brandon Czarapata, who himself has over 100 career division feature wins. Rod sits on top the all time list here with 64 feature wins, and looks to add track title number 7 to his extensive resume.
The Turbo Blue Street Stocks saw Ryan Blank claim his first career track title in a division that has been very competitive over the years. In 27 years, Ryan became the 24 different driver to win the title. Meaning there have only been three repeat champs. Ryan is looking to become the fourth.
The IMCA Sport Mods welcomes a new series sponsor to Seymour Speedway. O'Reilly Auto Parts has signed on for the title sponsor roll in exciting open wheel division. Jeremy Cota ran to an impressive 6 feature wins last season claiming his first career title here at the Seymour Speedway. He became the 7th different champion and looks to become the first repeat champ. He started this season winning the Sprint Thaw to bring his division leading feature total to 20.
The 4 Cylinder division saw Cody Hungerford chase down his first career title last year. He won one feature last year, but with 9 different feature winners, that was an accomplishment in the very competitive class. A total of 5 of those winners were first time winners, which claimed 10 of the 16 features run last year. Look for more tight racing in the 4 Cylinder division this season.
A new division, Thunder Trucks, will m\be making bi-weekly tops at the Seymour Speedway this season. It is a true entry level division with no modifications to a stock pickup truck. They will run their first official race this Sunday April 19 at Seymour. The division will run weekly at Manitowoc and Thunder Hill, and will have a contingency package to run for in its inaugural season.
Other notable events on this years 32nd season schedule.
The WDLMA Late Models will return for 2 more races as part of their Super 7 Series in 2015. They will be part of the 1st leg of the Summer Holiday Classic series on Memorial Day weekend, May 24. They will return on Sunday July 19 as well.
The Bumper to Bumper IRA Outlaw Sprints will be back on Sunday August 2. Last season, Billy Balog won a non-stop 30 lap feature event to help claim his 7th overall series championship.
INEX Legends will compete again on Sunday June 7th.
The Kids Club will be in full swing as well with special events throughout the season. 2 notable nights will be June 21 when GSR Racing Supplies will sponsor the Bike Giveaway. Kelsey Coatings and 1st Choice Auto Sales will again team up to present the Coin Toss on August 9.
The track will also be hosting 4 practice nights this season on the 2nd Tuesday of the month. Dates are May 12, June 9m July 14 and August 11.

So Adorable
"These are the cutest, most comfortable shoes I've bought in awhile. I wore them to the office on Friday and did quite a bit of walking. There is a lot of cushion inside these so they're ultra comfortable. I wore them with a pair of dark skinny jeans and got several compliments. I wear a 6.5 or 7, depending on the style. I got these in a 6.5 and they were perfect. Highly recommend!!"

"These shoes really are adorable. A nice thick sole, making for a comfy stride; however, the back comes up entirely too high on my foot. It digs into my heel and just makes it impossible to wear them. Maybe it's just my foot and ankle shape, definitely disappointing because they are so cute!"

Good grief! We finally broke down and turned the AC on today! :)ReplyDelete
Discovered you via the Wednesday Social Bzzz! You've been followed! Yay, for AC (until the utility bill comes)!ReplyDelete
We broke down and turned on our AC. I can handle hot and humid . . . but the kids get pretty cranky. Thanks for writing the fahrenheit equivalent . . .I'm so bad at converting!ReplyDelete
It is definitely TOO hot!ReplyDelete
I'm jealous of your heat. Will you send some my way please? We had snow yesterday!ReplyDelete
I am with you....SWELTERING!ReplyDelete
Sweltering by me too! And it's only June 2nd!!!!ReplyDelete
I am so amazed it is that hot where you are at. I live in Florida and the weather is still comfortable. I say you did the best thing by staying in and reading while drinking tea. Much to hot to exert any energy.ReplyDelete
It was terribly hot here, too. My neighbor volunteered to take our daughters to the pool, and I happily stayed inside!ReplyDelete
Happily following from the Almost Friday hop. Hope you'll visit me at http://EverythingBeautifulInItsTime.com!

Event Detail Information
Land use and Land cover Change and its impact on Hydrological Processes
Land-use and Land-cover Change (LULCC) is a locally pervasive and globally significant ecological trend. Three of the most documented global change phenomenon's are: increasing concentrations of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere; alterations in the biochemistry of the global nitrogen cycle; and on-going land-use/land-cover change. LULCC is also linked to the most significant environmental implications viz., alterations of hydrological process and biodiversity loss at multiple spatial and temporal scales. Indian economy is primarily based on agriculture. The growing population and demand on land has grown many fold during last five decades. Land degradation of various forms has further complicated the LULCC process in most agriculturally productive landscapes. Under ISRO-Geosphere Biosphere Program (ISRO-GBP) major initiative has produced spatial data sets on LULCC of all 14 river basins has assessed using satellite remote sensing data sets (of three seasons) of 1985, 1995 & 2005. The data sets have been used to model the future changes based on the past trends and the drivers thought to determine conversions of land between different categories. Integrated land change science is used for spatially explicit, dynamic land change models that explain and project LULCC.
The presentation includes hydrological modeling to quantify the impact of LULCC on the hydrological regimes in the river basins of India. Variable Infiltration capacity (VIC) model which is a semi-distributed macro-scale hydrological model designed to represent surface energy and hydrological fluxes at varying scales. VIC captures the LULCC on hydrological processes. The results obtained in two river basins will be presented.
Dr P S Roy is Geospatial Chair Professor at Center for Earth and Space Science of Hyderabad Central University. He has been active scientist and researcher in the area of Earth Observation Science years with Indian Space Research Organization in various positions. He is Fellow of National Academy of sciences India, National Academy of Agricultural Sciences, Indian Society of Remote Sensing, National Academy of Forestry and Environmental Sciences and Indian Geophysical Union. He has >150 research papers in the international peer reviewed journals.

Question of the Week - Time for Projects
Luckily, Londo and I have wonderful, helpful family who live close enough to make kid coverage (mostly) work. My mom watched the kids one week, my MIL came up for another week, and they both will do other days coming up. In addition, Londo took the kids for one week and I will take them for another week. That will cover us for most of the 6 week period.
So that's what's been going on. It's quite a logistical feat, to get all this organized in a way that works for everyone, especially the kids. And things will come up to rock the boat, as they already have. But overall, it's a good plan and working pretty well.
Last week was Londo's week with the kids, and he took them down to his parents house for the week. That's right. I had the house TO MYSELF all week last week! I'll bet you think I would have spent the week sleeping in and writing blog posts and watching movies and generally laying around enjoying the peace and quiet.
Of course I didn't! I decided that with everyone out of the house, that was the perfect time to get some projects done. After all, the house has been in a state of disarray since I tore my meniscus just after I start a re-organization project in my closet and the guest room/my office. But finishing the organization of my closet depended on moving my old dresser out and into my daughter's room. But first I wanted to paint it so it would be cute, not old and fuggly. And finishing the organization of the guest room/office depended on painting the room first.
So that's what I did last. I painted. I may have taken on slightly too many painting projects, but it's been years since I painted ANYTHING. BC (Before Children), I used to refinish furniture, and I've missed that hobby a great deal. But that hobby, like with all painting, requires a lot of time devoted to it in which you get messy and can't stop in the middle of it. It also requires a lot of prep time and clean up time. And a place to do all of that without kids running around.
By the end of the week, I had two coats of a brownish, rosy color on the guest room/office walls, matching headboard and dresser for my daughter's room, and halfway painted shelves for my son's room (which I will finish this week sometime). Though my body aches in places I'd forgotten existed and my knee has really gone to the edge of its capabilities, I'm really proud of what I've done and so happy that I've gotten to do those projects! Now I can finish organizing everything!
This week's question of the week is:
What projects do you have on your To Do list that you haven't had time to get to yet?
The painting and reorganizing has been on my list for years, so I'm really glad I can cross them off. But I have other projects on my list.
Next up is hanging curtains! We have lots of curtains that we brought with us from our old house FIVE YEARS AGO. Besides lacking the time and energy, we also have some weird issues with the blinds on all the windows which has made it difficult to find curtain rods that will fit correctly.
I also want to frame and hang many prints, posters and pictures on walls of numerous rooms. And work on decorating the dining room better. And completely redo our kitchen (but we totally don't have money for that one!) And probably a ton of other things, but that's all I can let myself think about for now.
What about you? What projects have been on your list? Are they house-related, personal, kid-related or maybe even couple-related? What have you not been able to find the time to do? What would you do with a week at home by yourself?

so many questions! where to start?! with a week to myself, first I would sleep, take baths, eat good food, watch a movie or two. then, I would deep clean & dust the house, re-org our ONE closet, finally paint the trim in the laundry room, finish painting the doors in the house, choose a color & paint the kitchen, re-do kitchen, laundry room & bath floors. clean up gardens, divide & distribute plants in new locations. paint the shelves I already put up a year ago. get a file cabinet & organize paperwork. find a place to rent in a diff school district & rent our place out. and then I'd need another week to sleep!

A week at home by myself is too foreign of a concept to really even process.... I'd probably read and sleep a lot, and feel really guilty about that, and then be annoyed at myself for feeling guilty.
But projects! OH, I have projects. I want to move my blog off blogger to something I host elsewhere, and do all sorts of cool things with it. Really- I have a bout a year's worth of ideas for that.
Our master bathroom is still the same hideous bright blue we swore we couldn't live with when we moved into the house 4 years ago.
Also, the kitchen cabinets are the same pinkish faux-southwestern finish that we swore we couldn't live with.
And we have a major yard/house upgrade plan that we're slowly working our way through.
Then there's the hall closet that I had all organized and is somehow in disarray again.
And- this one's a wildcard- I have an idea for a sci fi novel, which maybe someday I'll do something with.

@Lisa F - Oh, the FIRST thing I did was take a nap! And you have ONE closet? I don't think I could survive with only one! Sounds like you'd be over-planning your week, just like I did. Maybe if I didn't have to work all day I would have had time to clean and file stuff, which were also on my list...
@Cloud - Yeah, a week at home by myself was totally a crazy concept! I couldn't believe it happened! I really thought I'd do more with my blog during that week, but working all day and painting all evening/night didn't leave me any time. But I thought about it a lot! And what's with the hall closets? I keep cleaning and organizing mine, then it so quickly devolves back into a mess! It was on my list, too.

A week in my house alone? How amazing a gift that would be - glad to hear you got to live the dream @caramama!
I would probably waste time by watching all the episodes of "Breaking Bad" on my DVR. Yep, I think I could get thru all the seasons in a week.
But really, I would spend the time organizing kid pictures and videos, and finish decorating their rooms before they like start high school. ;)

Once close friends, John Adams and Thomas Jefferson became bitter rivals as they fought for control of the young government. In a no-holds-barred brawl, both camps used any and all methods to sway voters. There was mudslinging, name-calling, and backstabbing. After a stalemate in the Electoral College, balloting went on for days and nights. Friendships were crushed, promises were broken, civil war was threatened. In the end, a shady deal gave Jefferson the presidency, and America would never be the same.
Considering the turmoil of the modern era, Adams vs. Jefferson is a timely book through which we can better understand the antagonistic atmosphere of contemporary politics.
The "Pivotal Moments in American History" series seeks to unite the old and the new history, combining the insights and techniques of recent historiography with the power of traditional narrative. Each title has a strong narrative arc with drama, irony, suspense, and – most importantly – great characters who embody the human dimension of historical events. The general editors of "Pivotal Moments" are not just historians; they are popular writers themselves, and, in two cases, Pulitzer Prize winners: David Hackett Fischer, James M. McPherson, and David Greenberg. We hope you like your American History served up with verve, wit, and an eye for the telling detail!
Listen to John Ferling talk about this book on the October 3, 2004, edition of Booknotes.
©2004 John Ferling; (P)2004 Recorded Books, LLC
"Ferling richly presents the twists and turns of the election, as well as a vivid portrait of a struggling new nation and the bruising political battles of our now revered founding fathers." (Publishers Weekly)
history buff
"Outstanding work of interpretive history"
This work, purportedly about the election of 1800, actually spends less than 1/4 of its length on the election & the various machinations associated with same. That is a good thing. Rather, it reviews, superficially yet very powerfully, the forces that in the years after 1776 brought forth the Federalists, anti-Federalists & Jeffersonian Republicans, as well as the sideward glance at the first glimmerings of a "political machine" in the hands of Aaron Burr. It is this interpretation of the 2 decades running up to the election that makes the election crystal-clear. This book also has outstanding narration. Someone who speaks with emphasis & doesn't have to be suffered through. The only weakness of the book, frankly, is the short section that follows the events of the elections, which treads on very well worn ground (Burr's post 1800 shenanigans, Hamilton, Jefferson/Adams correspondence) & does not add anything substantial to the record here. A very small complaint. It still deserves 5 stars in by book.
"A little too Jeffersonian"
Interesting and informative, but passed over Jefferson's faults too easily. Ferling concludes that the election of 1800 was about liberty (Jefferson and the Republicans) vs. oligarchy (Adams, Hamilton and the Federalists). This is a little simplistic in my view--there was certainly a more moderate strain of Federalism, represented by Adams, which was not the usurper of 1776 liberty represented by Jefferson. I think Ferling comes to a lazy black and white conclusion. But I enjoyed the book.
"Jefferson's Point of View"
I was disappointed by this book's uneven treatment of the Federalist and the Republicans. After recently reading biographies of Washington, Adams and Hamilton, it was difficult to beleve that this book was referring to the same men or the same historical episodes. It was good to listen to Jefferson's and the other Republican's point of view, but I did get tired of hearing the same critisim of the Federalists over and over and over again. If you do listen to this book you should also listen to the recent biographies of Adams and Hamilton to obtain the alternative points of view.
"pretty good"
This book is rather Pro-Jefferson but not real bad. At some points it is a little shaky on historical ground. If you are only going to read one book on this period this should not be that book but if you are going to read several make this one about the 5th or 6th.
"The Federalists vs. Republicans"
This is the best treatment I have read of the differences that developed our country's first political parties and what the real issues were behind all of the rhetoric and name calling. It was difficult for me to understand Jefferson's position prior to this book. Now I know why he won the election and was elected for a second term so easily. It is an excellent book. Both presidents are treated fairly. I only wish the author had explored and written more about the correspondence of these two giants after their presidencies. Our nation is indebted to these two men and their unique contributions to our republic.
"A worthwhile listen"
This is a very worthwhile book as it covers not just the election of 1800 but all that led up to it. The development of the two parties: Federalists and Republicans is covered at length as well as their disagreements throughout the 1790s (an era even more partisan than today!). I feel it was very even handed in its treatment of most of the characters involved with the possible exception of one of the most polarizing individuals: Alexander Hamilton. To remedy this I merely recommend reading/listening to Ron Chernow's biography Alexander Hamilton to get a more complete view of Hamilton and his thoughts and beliefs. I don't see this as, in any way, an intentional act by Mr. Ferling. Instead it was likely the result of the fact that a more nuanced explanation of Hamilton's motives and ideas fell outside the scope of this book.
The basic premise of the book was that the election of 1800 was a remarkable achievement in that it was the first time that the people of the United States was presented with a choice between 2 starkly different candidates with diametrically opposed visions of where the US should go in the next 4-8 years and chose to change from a Federalist system to a Republican system. While there was plenty of high emotion surrounding the election as well as ample political drama it accomplished the remarkable feat of a bloodless transfer of power from one distinct group to another.
This book really stood out in its description of how Jefferson was finally chosen not just over Adams but over Aaron Burr. Its description of the political maneuvering that took place in the House of Representatives was powerful and engaging. I would highly recommend this book to anyone interested in the Early Republic period and is worthy to sit on a "shelf" with Joseph Ellis, Ron Chernow, David Mccullough and others.
"Outstanding Title"
This was a fascinating presentation not only for showing that the Founding Fathers weren't a monolithic group, but also in how little our politics have changed. Issues such as Religion, civil liberties, war, and the role of the federal vs. the state government. Many of the same things we argue over today were being argued over at the time. Rather than 24-hour news channels, though, they had pamphlets and letters to do their work. Sometimes, they attacked more personally and with greater ferocity than we do today.
The book is a bit one-sided - leaning more towards Jefferson's side and against the "ultra-Federalists" (which sometimes sounds an awful lot like today's media saying "extreme right wing"). However, you will find yourself chuckling as you hear many of the same arguments that still come from politicians today. It really does make some of our modern arguments seem petty when you realize it's nothing especially new.
A fine book overall.
"History Just Seems To Come Alive!"
I love it, when in reading (ah, I mean, listening to) a book, where the author can make the story seem to just jump off the pages and come to life. That's especially true, when there is already so much in the way of documented writings, books and movies about the topic such as in the Presidential election of 1800 which pitted John Adams against Thomas Jefferson.
Today's politics are pretty tame compared to what used to go on back in the day. What with all of the name calling, cartoon depictions, and sometimes near fisticuffs or a dual in the streets. Yes, today's politics and politicians are downright boring compared to what the author, John Ferling, describes in this book.
I'm not a big history buff, or political junky, but Ferling's book kept my attention and helped me to learn a lot of things that I didn't know about in the early days of our great nation!
"Fascinating, detailed account of the amazing election of 1800"
If you think that today's national political life is unusual for the USA, you never had a really good course in US history. John Ferling gives you that and so much more in this thorough and captivating book. The narrator takes no liberties, gives a straightforward reading, and makes listening a pleasure. This is a must-have.
Say something about yourself!
"(Comparatively) A balanced account"
The vitality of the two hundred year old political feuds in current history has impressed me in my reading (seven books on the 1790s now) it. Evidently its force is such that not only do we anticipate drama and bile from its scholars, we reviewers and I myself often begin to consider a book to our fellows in precisely the context of which of well known sides is it on.
But while, especially in the epilogue--isn't it wonderful when scholars show appreciable consideration in treating a sensitive area of history, only to gush all over the epilogue with how messianic one side was from the final tally?--Mr. Ferling may be described as "Jeffersonian," and other reviewers are correct that his tour drives past several popular attractions of villainy, I think the book very well satisfies its purpose of tracing the important election.
If Mr. Ferling is gentle and personally favors Jefferson, then it must be admitted sporting and professional that he is comparably gentle to the other contenders in the election. He gives the benefit of the doubt to Adams' and Burr's shenanigans as he does to Jefferson's and he says fair play to Hamilton (who, not being a candidate in 1800, does not need the same treatment as the others here, and whom ever Mr. Chernow does not say is at his best on the date in question) on several relevant occasions, including a review (presumably motivated by the trends of the recent history) of some of Hamilton's nationally formative contributions once Jefferson has ascended into the epilogue. The presentations in authorial style and reader performance did not impact my experience (good or ill).
I would recommend this book to someone who was only going to read one book to learn about the period. It draws gently positive but not totally indulgent composites of each of the major figures and at least familiarizes its attentive reader with the overview of their doings, personalities, significances (again, with respect to 1800 of course), and points of controversy. High drama, dirty pool, and epic villification certainly were and are integral aspect of the era of the subject, but Ferling admirably keeps his course to that subject though he traces several decades over all: that is, he keeps to matters relevant to the election of 1800 rather than the whole movement in political opera. On that note, it covered the election of 1800 rather well; I had very few notes of unanswered details.
If you have read some on the era, mostly this offers a review, perhaps good details on biographies whom you have not read yet, or perhaps a more nearly neutral, to any figure neither overly acidic nor apologist, consideration of the events. It does, of course, have fine details on how the electoral machine stalled and a professional assessment on what famous and little known events did or did not cause the outcome. Concluding, if you're bothering to read the reviews, I think you're interested enough and the history is well done enough that you wouldn't be disappointed.
