Skip to comments.The founder of Italian Communism had deathbed conversion
Posted on 11/26/2008 9:45:21 AM PST by GonzoII
The Vatican has revealed that Antonio Gramsci, the founder of Italian Communism and an icon of the Left, reverted to Roman Catholicism on his deathbed..
(Excerpt) Read more at timesonline.co.uk ...
There are few atheists on deathbeds.
Too bad his conversion came too late to spare the rest of us his diabolical plot.
Perhaps Jesus can still forgive him at such a point.
I find it difficult. Living one's life with fantasies of power, promoting all the lies of Communism, seeking to destroy peoples' freedoms, their livelihoods, and even seeking to destroy the Church. It's hard to forgive all that.
Postponing one's conversion is not generally a good idea.
Gramsci was the guy that coined the phrase "long march through the institutions" to describe how to implement Communism not by bloody revolution but by gradually rotting out the structures of Western society through means such as "political correctness" and "multiculturalism". In some ways, Gramsci's legacy is as evil as Stalin's and Mao's.
He literally "Saw the Light".
"He literally Saw the Light."
And no guarantee that it was a beautiful white light...maybe shades of orange, red, black etc...
I agree.
I've been betrayed by family and even decades later I cannot forgive. I know it weighs heavy on my heart but I simply cannot take that step especially considering they have never expressed any remorse for their actions.
"Perhaps Jesus can still forgive him at such a point."
The thief on the cross comes to mind!
Remorse is their problem mate! You can choose to forgive them by saying "I forgive them" whether you feel like it or not or whether you want to or not. It's a matter of choice and it is better for your heart if you do. Don't wait to feel good about it- do it in obedience - you don't need to carry that burden.
I agree. I wish more people were aware of the damage he, Marcuse (Frankfurt School) and their ilk have wrought in our country.
I heard the famous French author and pseudo-intellectual, Jean-Paul Sartre did so as well.
Insurance policies or genuine conversions?
The Marxist cultural revolution that Gramsci launched is still killing people around the world by the hundreds of thousands (think Rwanda and Darfur) and helped to put the zero in power. He helped destroy education in this country by turning academe into an indoctrination camp that has brainwashed tens of millions of voters in this country.
Too bad his grave isn't nearby. I just had a big glass of water.
I completely agree. He spawned the second wave of communism, the undertow beneath the tsunami of the Bolshevik revolution and Stalinism, as I describe it. The undertow has proven and will continue to prove to be the far more destructive.
If Dante were here he'd name a pit after Antonio Gramsci.
Chill-out, we're all going to be six feet under one day!
"Its hard to forgive all that".
No doubt, for our fallen nature, but Christ is infinite and his mercy with Him, and this man had to cry out for it, or he never would have gotten it.
"I've been betrayed by family and even decades later I cannot forgive".
Its hard to forgive all that.
Not to be a party pooper, but look at the plank in your own eye and ask if it's hard to forgive all that. Believe me, I know my plank in my eye is horribly bigger than I want it to be but I trust that Christ has made the promise that if we trust in His Holy Sacrifice, He will forgive all that. If He can save the most outwardly obvious sinner, he can save us too...It's not an exclusive "be a sort of good person/sort of sinner and be saved" thing. Remember, just ONE offense to God is enough to condemn us...I guess I'm just sayin how thankful I am for what a Merciful God we have, far beyond anything any of us can really fathom...
Happy T-day to you and yours!!
I've always wondered if the deathbed conversions are people who finally see the light, or they're just trying to cover the bases, just in case.
"I've always wondered..."
Me, too, but I guess that info is given out on a "need to know" basis and I suspect the Almighty doesn't think we have that need.
Remember, holding on to resentment is like drinking poison and waiting for your enemy to die from it. Let it go, my friend.
He does indeed.
***I've always wondered if the deathbed conversions are people who finally see the light, or they're just trying to cover the bases, just in case. ****
Like W. C. Fields looking for loopholes. (when found reading the Bible before his death.)
Dying has the ability to focus one's priorities.
Luke 17:3 So watch yourselves. "If your brother sins, rebuke him, and if he repents, forgive him.
You're not alone. When the family members that betrayed me repent then I will forgive. Betrayal is especially bad. Notice that Jesus did not forgive Judas.
I've also heard that lack of forgiveness is like walking around with a dead fish in your pocket-—it only affects you and those who come in contact with you.
The Luke 17:3 verse is somewhat comforting in a weird way although the weight remains heavy.
Again, thanks and a wonderful Thanskgiving to y'all!
God Bless ya and remember all people will let you down at some stage but God will never leave you or foresake you.

JST, John 4:1–4.
Compare John 4:1–2
1 When therefore the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John,
2 They sought more diligently some means that they might put him to death; for many received John as a prophet, but they believed not on Jesus.
3 Now the Lord knew this, though he himself baptized not so many as his disciples;
4 For he suffered them for an example, preferring one another.

By Richard L. Fricklas
Today's thermoplastic membranes are heat-welded, a significant improvement over solvent-welded products.
Reinforcing fabric between the facer and bottom membrane layer controls PVC's potential to shrink when exposed to weather.
Most modern thermoplastic systems incorporate mechanical fasteners placed in the seams of the membrane, allowing the membrane to form a watertight seal and cover the fasteners in a single step.
Mechanically fastened stress plates factory-faced with polymer can be placed below the membrane for a non-penetrating installation.
While the commercial roofing industry closely defines the polymers in manufacture of single ply roofing systems by their acronyms – such as EPDM, PIB, PVC, CSPE, TPO, and the like – from a functional point of view, these membranes are either weldable or not.
Successive generations of these polymers offer continual improvement, making today's thermoplastic repair job relatively smooth. Ready to repair? Read on.
Innovations in Membrane Materials
PVC systems of the 1960s generally solvent-welded the seams together, using tetrahydrofurane (THF) as the welding agent. However, during application, the THF could absorb moisture from the atmosphere and contaminate the welding solution. THF also has a very low flash point. Today, heat welding has replaced solvent welding, with self-propelled hot air welding machines for field seams and hand-held welders for patching and detail work.
Another change from the first-generation PVC systems was the addition of reinforcing fabric between the facer and bottom membrane layer. This controlled the potential for membrane shrinkage upon weather exposure and improved stress distribution under wind loads. Manufacturers have since eliminated stone ballast to hold and protect the roof membrane. It was found that some ballast materials contained clay that could extract the plasticizer from the PVC compound, resulting in shortened roof life.
Mechanical Fasteners Streamline Installation
Today, you'll likely find that most PVC and TPO membranes are mechanically fastened to the substrate. Fasteners could be placed in the seams of the membrane, so that the overlying membrane forms both the watertight seam and covers the fasteners in a single step.
Another recent innovation is to incorporate mechanically fastened stress plates that are factory-faced with polymer (TPO for TPO membranes, PVC for PVC membranes). As compared to the penetrating fasteners of earlier generations, these stress plates are placed beneath the membrane, allowing installation without penetration.
How to Patch a Thermoplastic Membrane
Need to repair your membrane? You'll need hand or machine welders, a reliable source of power, a pressure roller and probe, and a compatible repair material. Once you've gathered the necessary supplies, these eight steps recommended by the National Roofing Contractors Association (NRCA) will help you patch the hole.

Flash flooding a problem in the Tri-Cities again
BLOUNTVILLE, Tenn. - Pounding rain left a familiar sight in our region -- flash flooding. This time Blountville took the brunt of the storm.
Flood waters rushed in quickly, but they generally don't take long to recede.
However, it certainly creates a lot of headaches for those watching the water rise all around them.
There were streams rushing over roadways and pools of water settling in backyards after two inches of rain dumped over Sullivan County in just over an hour.
Jim Bean, Sullivan County EMA Director tells us, "The biggest issue was a lot of water across the roadways. The tile wasn't carrying the amount of water that was going through."
The flash flood that started just after noon on Tuesday, leaving a total of 15 roads closed at one time, including Franklin Drive in the heart of downtown Blountville.
Blountville Resident Mike Dearstone says he's never seen water like this here. "I came by here a little while ago and some woman tried to go through here in a little old Volkswagen," he said. "They had to take that back and pull her out."
Just a few miles away Bethel Drive was closed to drivers, too. A creek current spilled on to the street, making it dangerous for any driver.
For those like Elijah Gragg, whose home almost flooded, they realized they weren't going anywhere any time soon. "It looked more like an ocean. When I first looked out the window, see the fender on that little trailer? [The water] was right up and under it, between the top of the tire and the fender right there," he said. The rising water nearly surrounded his home, though just inches away, it never went inside.
We've learned Sullivan County was not the only place in the path of this storm. We've gotten reports of flooding in Carter County, where we've also learned about a dozen trees were knocked down in the Blue Springs section.
And parts of Scott County Virginia were flooded, particularly in the area of Speers Ferry Road.

By MAYOR GIL BOWDENCOUNCILMAN GORDON BENNETTCOUNCILPERSON MELINDA MECCARIELLOCOUNCILPERSON JO SANSEVEROCOUNCILMAN JOE TRENERYC
Dear Commissioners:
We, the elected representatives of Ferron City, understand that you, the Emery County Commissioners, intend on closing Canyon Road to ATV travel from the city limits of Ferron to the forest service boundaries.
In your public meeting several weeks ago, Mayor Bowden expressed that Ferron City, through its mayor, city council, and a majority of its citizens oppose this action and want to make it clear that this proposed action is still opposed by this municipality. It is in conflict with Ferron City's plan for its development as a recreational venue in Emery County.
Mesia Nyman, Manti-LaSal Forest Ranger, has written an article and quoted its content at the county's public hearing on the subject indicating it is the intent of the forest service to keep the forest roads open to ATV travel. We see that the Utah State Parks Division advertises Millsite as an ATV and bike route with it being an access and destination.
As the Ferron City Council, we are unanimous in our decision to keep our city streets open to ATV access. We are concerned that the desires of the people of Ferron and the decisions of their elected representatives are being ignored. We perceive Canyon Road to be the best route to access Ferron's mountain area. It is presently used as a Historical Livestock Trail and as an agricultural route. Tractors, hay wagons, manure spreaders, backhoes, swathers, and other type of livestock equipment is used every day on this road without incident and more specifically, ATVs have in the past, and currently, use this route regularly without incident. We recognize the fact that the road is used for a variety of purposes, therefore, we support the 25 and 35 miles per hour speed limits currently set for travel on it. In our opinion, Mill Road is a far more dangerous route to drive, especially due to the blind turn next to Eva Conover's home. We believe the Emery County Commissions proposal is both arbitrary and capricious in its disregard for the desires and plans of Ferron City's citizens and officials.
Once again, we as Ferron City's Mayor and Council request that Canyon Road remain open for designated use as an ATV route. We ask for your support to accommodate the needs of our community so we may all be successful in promoting recreation and tourism in Emery County. We feel frustrated when a decision has been made by us only to learn it is being opposed without consideration given to the needs of our community. Everyone understands the need to work together on difficult matters to meet an appropriate solution. Therefore, we ask for all sides of this issue to be evaluated and given careful consideration before a decision is made. We seek a continuation of good working relations between city and county officials and ask for support in our decisions as leaders with responsibilities that have been entrusted to us.
Respectfully yours,
Ferron City

Type: Bug
Status: Closed
Priority: Minor
Resolution: Fixed
Affects Version/s: 1.9.2
Fix Version/s: 1.9.7
Component/s: Assignment (2.2)
Affected Branches:MOODLE_19_STABLE
Fixed Branches:MOODLE_19_STABLE
When developing a custom assignment plugin (random), its name cannot be found in directories searched. More explicitly, function assignment_types in assignment/lib.php calls function get_string('type'.$name, 'assignment'). All official plugins get string name typeonline, typeoffline, etc from official language file asignment.php in lang/en_utf8 (or other appropriate language). However, custom plugin should get its strings from mod/assignment/type/random/lang/en_utf8. Although language file assignment_random.php in this directory is browsed for other strings, string typerandom is not read from it. This results in [[typerandom]] messages in list of assignments and at the assignment update pages.

Petr - It looks like this was intended; however, the code in assignment lib.php does not follow what get_string expects. The following patch should resolve this. I have also added a todo to look at another area where we attempt to get assignment type name using get_string. Peace - Anthony
adding fix version 1.9.5 as I think we should get this in there for folks who are using custom assignment types. I came across this when I was working on
CONTRIB-1175. Peace - Anthony
I have tried the patch and changed the line in lib.php (line 3010) corespondingly. However, I still get [[typerandom]] as before. Maybe I do something wrong. Here are the location of strings 'typerandom':
grep -ir typerandom moodle/*
moodle/mod/assignment/type/random/lang/sk_utf8/assignment_random.php:$string['typerandom'] = 'Náhodné zadanie';
moodle/mod/assignment/type/random/lang/en_utf8/assignment_random.php:$string['typerandom'] = 'Random assignment';
and this is now around line 3010 of my lib.php
grep -n -C 2 assignment_ moodle/mod/assignment/lib.php
3008- $type->type = "assignment&type=$assignmenttype";
3009- //$type->typestr = get_string("type$assignmenttype", 'assignment');
3010: $type->typestr = get_string("type$assignmenttype", 'assignment_'.$assignmenttype);
3011- $types[] = $type;
3012- }
Miroslav - Looking at your README file, I think you made some old assumptions about get_string that has been fixed up quite a bit. I downloaded the latest version of the random assignment type. I put lang into /mod/assignment/type/random and renamed the file from assignment.php to assignment_random.php and it worked as expected. I'll attach a zip file so that you can see what I did. Also, if you are interested in adding your code to Moodle's CVS server have a look at http://docs.moodle.org/en/Development:Guidelines_for_contributed_code. I would be happy to give your code a look and make some suggestions but would like to do that under a separate tracker issue. Peace - Anthony
Miroslav - Here is the zip file I mentioned earlier. Let me know if you have any questions. Peace - Anthony
Antony, thank you very much for your help. I have been aware of some of the changes you propose in the zip file, but they have not been in the package yet - due to this bug.
I have tested your suggestions over the weekend. It does not work at my development machine, but works on testing server. But it is possible that the development machine has some problems. I still have a problem that only english strings are shown, but I will work on it..
Miroslav - If I had to guess why it is not working on the production site I would say that get_string is finding the local file and trying to use that. I would move/rename that folder/file so that it uses what is in /mod/assignment/type/random/lang/en_utf8. get_string can be a little picky at times. Once you verify it is working you can delete the local lang directory/file. If I recall the code it looks for the existence of the directory and if it is there that is what it uses; however, it is not finding the correctly named file (assignment_random.php). Peace - Anthony
with your patch, I got it almost working after I have replaced all my get_string calls
get_string('...', 'assignment')
get_string('...', 'assignment_random')
There is one issue remaining. It can be seen in the list of all assignments in a course (moodle/mod/assignment/index.php?id=...). The assignment name is still in double brackets as [[typerandom]]. It is due to incorrect function assignment_types in assignment/lib.php. It only checks string typerandom in assignment.php and not in assignment_random.php. See here:
2816 function assignment_types() {
2817 $types = array();
2818 $names = get_list_of_plugins('mod/assignment/type');
2819 foreach ($names as $name) {
2820 $types[$name] = get_string('type'.$name, 'assignment');
Good catch Miroslav. I am attaching an updated patch which addresses the issue you raised. Peace - Anthony
Thanks Antony for your time and help. It works now. We can close this issue if your last patch is applied.. Best, Miroslav
Thanks Miroslav for testing. Since the issue is assigned to Petr, I will leave it to him to evaluate the patch and commit. Peace - Anthony
The latest patch from anthony misses the assignment actvitiy form when adding a non-standard assignment type, i've addressed this in this patch.
Petr - I am reviewing an upcoming book about Moodle development and this issue is mentioned. It would be good if we could get this patch applied. Since I am not doing full time coding, I always like to have such things reviewed first but feel free to assign to me if it looks good and I will apply it. Peace - Anthony
I am going to commit this fix unless anyone can come up with a compelling reason not to.
is your fix going to be compatible with current subplugin design in 2.0?
Where is this design?
The fix hopefully wont be (as its a bodge), but hopefully the ability for assignment types to have language strings will be comptabible since that is a fundamental of all our plugins.

By RUBY MINCHEY and told by OLE JENSEN
Editors Note: This story was read in the Emery Town Council meeting and is being placed in a frame at city hall in memory of days gone by:
Everyone that has ever been here knows that Emery is a special place. Special in so many different ways. First the pioneers who settled Emery had a vision of the future. Planned with wide streets running North and South, East and West-wide enough for future growth and development without having to be changed later. Usually with four plots to each city block; easy to survey and be recorded. Emery is nestled in a valley at the foot of the Emery Mountain that stands as a monument to the town. The people who settled Emery were a stalwart, strong and good people. Most of the people who still live here are offspring of those pioneer settlers. We still carry the name of being strong, stalwart, friendly, charitable, and with a love of God and of all people.
During the early 1920s, Emery was a very competitive town. We had to raise funds for many projects and improvements. In those days we didn't have government grants and loans to help out. We were competitive in sports, especially baseball and softball, and other things as well. In competing for donations and competition we decided to divide the town into corners. What to name these corners was the big decision. This was decided by the people in a very natural and unique way.
Every time we collected donations, the Northwest corner of town always donated more than any other corner-them being a very frugal and careful group. The town didn't want to give too much credit to one corner, so as a joke they took all things into consideration and named the corner Stingy Corner.
Between 300 and 400 South and Center Street and 100 West, there is a city block that is different than most blocks in our town, There has been no development, nothing grows there, not even much salt grass. It has a history of swamp, teams and wagons mired in the mud and desolation. It stands today as a symbol of alkali-nobody tries to build there, Eldridge Christiansen's old log house still stands in shambles as a symbol of desertion. Even though this block is deserted and barren there are still many special people in this corner of town who have proven that through hard work and thrift, what can be done with a plot of ground, a home and a family. It is a beautiful part of our town. Thus we have the corner called Swamp Angels, named after that one swampy block in their corner.
We all remember the evenings in the summer time when we heard so many frogs croaking in the Southeast corner of town. It was quite a pleasant and enjoyable sound. A sound we all greatly enjoyed. After the new water systems went in and all the pesticides and insecticides, the sounds of the frogs croaking has almost disappeared-but we still have the name Frog Bottom to remind us of those pleasant sounds of the past.
The story is told that the Ward made a drive to try to find some hidden talent to fill some much needed positions. They went from door-to-door in the Northeast corner of town and couldn't find one person who was willing or able to try their talents. The report came back that there wasn't anybody but empty- heads that lived in that corner of town.
So they carry the name Empty-heads to this day.

Bone Health & Calcium: Plant vs. Rock?
The most common form of calcium supplement today is derived from limestone (rock). Jagged, isolated and with limited surface area, it can be difficult for the stomach to digest. It is also devoid of other key bone-nourishing nutrients.
The Whole-Food Difference
Bone Strength Take Care is different. Plant-sourced, it delivers whole-food Calcium, Magnesium and 72 other trace minerals in a natural honeycomb structure with an open surface area that is easy to digest and utilize.
Sustainably Sourced
The Calcium complex in Bone Strength Take Care is derived from a natural plant form called Lithothamnion, sustainably harvested from pristine shores along the Icelandic coastline.
Whole-Food Calcium -While most Calcium supplements are derived from rocks, plant-sourced Bone Strength Take Care Slim Tabs deliver bone-strengthening Calcium your body recognizes as food.
Bone-Health Complex -Provides key nutrients—including wholefood complexed Vitamin D3—that help the body effectively utilize Calcium, promote bone creation and foster optimal bone health.
Bones Not Arteries -Formulated with TargetCal, featuring natural Vitamin K2, which directs calcium to the bones where you need it, and keeps it out of the arteries where you don't.
Promotes Joint Health -Our whole-food Calcium, Magnesium and 72 trace mineral complex has also been shown to promote joint health, flexibility and movement.
Easy to Digest -Delivered in an easy to swallow slim tablet, and as whole food, it's easy to digest.

As I have been diagnosed with Osteoporosis, I need to find the best product that I can afford to help me rebuild my bone. Bone Strength uses calcium derived from algae and not bovine. Alge based calcium is alleged to be more dense and porous than calcium derived from bovine sources. I have always like New Chapter's products so I believe Bone Strength will help me rebuild my bone.

There was no work done yesterday at the office when the US was playing Ghana
True, but it was 6pm….ReplyCancel
About 2pm PST, half of my office mysteriously came down with illnesses. The better one was the admin who said his shoes were too tight and had to go home to change them. Curiously it took him about 3 hours before he came back, even though we can see his apartment building from our parking lot.
We have a pretty good shot at beating Portugal. Klingsmann is changing up his offense and it looks to be doing okay and with just this win, he's already taken us further than Arena or Bradley ever did. We won't beat Germany though. They're just way too strong and they all play together on Bayern, as it is. Shoot for second in the group and see what happens in the round of 32.ReplyCancel
I got text updates from my sonReplyCancel
What kind of reindeer games were they playing? No one in my neck of the woods ghana care; unless there is a beer tent involvedReplyCancel
I'll tell what ELSE didn't happen: Book Club voting. Shaking my head AND tsking. Seven, I expect more from you, and everyone else.
smh tsk tskReplyCancel
Did you know… "soccer" was a term invented and used by the Brits, who then abandoned its use when Americans used it too much? It's true!
They're playing the games on the TV in the cafe downstairs, which I am forced, er, privileged to listen to (both games and cheering/shouting) while I work, since it's an open atrium building. LUCKY ME.ReplyCancel
I was playing opossum at my house.ReplyCancel
I voted ….ReplyCancel
That's right, you did, sandy! And I was ridiculously excited because you and Orvilla are new voters too!ReplyCancel
WHOOOHOOOOOOO!!!! I couldn't watch last night nd I just watched it now. Even though I knew the score and THOUGHT I cared more about Ghana bc they have players from the club I follow, I was crying so hard at our second goal. It's so strange that I don't know many of the players but they mean so much to me bc they're my people! There's just something abut team USA. I wish more of our guys played in Europe, because that's where you learn the skills that make you great but our team is so underrated. I expect us to go farther then last WC which was unfair but you can't complain.ReplyCancel
@TTM.. i submit to the committee and look forward to reading something outside my norm.. although I'm still not finished with Reza Aslan's Zealot
I was listening to NPR yesterday in the car, they were interviewing a Ghana NYC transplant who assured the listeners Ghana would deliver a 3/nil victory
I was really surprised at the US win! Ghana has defeated US every single time sometimes up to 5/nil (I might have to YouTube that game — I've never seen any game with that many points; even combined)ReplyCancel
And thank you Enty for a World Cup post!!!!ReplyCancel
Hell I'm not getting anything done any of the days, working from home and being hooked on the entire World Cup! HOOKED, I tell ya.
And I really wanted Algeria to win just now, dang it…
This next game will rock, though–Brazil vs. Mexico!!!ReplyCancel
Uh my bad TTM:( I watched the GoT finale and nearly launched a dog across the room while screaming at the tv. So, for the rest of the night I was ranting like a lunatic. I will read whatever is decided on.ReplyCancel
TTM I'll pretend to read whatever is decided on like I always do.ReplyCancel
I suggest—I Can Make you HOT by Kelly Bensimon….ReplyCancel
Yes, awesome, aemish, always good to have another type of book suggested!ReplyCancel
You know we're just gonna spend the whole time on the social post, but you know, form and all thatReplyCancel
Derek, please tell me that's not an actual book? Ol Wonky Books, aka WorstRefundGapEVER has a book on looking hot…?ReplyCancel
Maybe it means that Ghana needs to be on TV more? And have a catch phrase as hilarious as a 5 year old saying "a dolla make me holla honey boo boo child"?ReplyCancel
Why I will forever love Canadians: United Breaks GuitarsReplyCancel
D Brown said…
What does it mean to the American educational system when more people know who Honey Boo Boo is than can find Ghana on a map?
Ghana is rather difficult to find on a map (Togo, Ivory Coast and others are in such a small place compared to the rest of Africa), the real proof of American knowledge of world geography would be placing Russia, Australia, Egypt, Germany or the US on a map. And most Americans wouldn't be able to find any of those.ReplyCancel
@Figgy Ghana knocked the US out of the World Cup in 2006 & 2010 so yeah it was a big deal to some.
I work with all Europeans of all different countries. So it is a national holiday where I work.
I like to watch it every 4 years it is fun to see everybody get so excited about it. The only down side was so many people were streaming the games online that our firm had to block all sports or sport related websites. We literally gummed up our whole network watching.
So now I watch on my little kindle at work. Yeah wifi!ReplyCancel
How goes your travel,Becks??ReplyCancel
Pretty good thanks love! Was thinking of starting a little picture blog if people are interested….we will be going to some nice places! Just had four days with Mr Mae's 15 yr old daughter who lives here….had some amazing sushi, tiro pita, souvlaki and went to a restaurant that serves food they ate in Ancient Greece!ReplyCancel
@aemish I have the HD Kindle was about $159 I think wifi only. I like it. I have the ipad2 but it is too heavy to lug around. The little kindle i don't mind leaving in my desk with apple i would be afraid it would get stolen. I can just put it on the corner of my desk and nobody notices it.
I get the same apps as Apple also, for the money it is worth it.ReplyCancel
Where does Enty work anyway? I always assumed he worked for one of the tabloids.ReplyCancel
Wow figgy … That was so incredibly patronising! Gold star!
It's lovely you'd rather give the World Cup away to a county "which is, well, Ghana." But actually you don't get to make that call. US did win but they sure weren't favourites – think about it. Ghana has a freaking awesome soccer team – historically, not just this year.
Seriously … America isn't the best at the world at everything. True story!ReplyCancel
Kermit – there is a tv programme called CNNN where they walk around America asking people to label places on a map – a small island of Australia (Tasmania) gets labeled 'South Korea.' Is pretty funny – but there are ignorant morons everywhere, and I suspect that they are often found while looking for a vox pop type deal (esp visible after its edited).ReplyCancel

Reducing the number of false positives in a high-throughput screen is a key goal for any researcher trying to minimize downstream efforts. Luciferase-based systems are used widely as reporters for drug screens; however, compounds in a library can inhibit luciferase, resulting in false positives. Ultra-Glo™ rLuciferase, an evolved luciferase from the firefly, Photuris pennsylvanica, is less sensitive to compound inhibition than wild-type firefly luciferase. In this study, we directly compare the abilities of the Promega CellTiter-Glo® Luminescent Cell Viability Assay, an Ultra-Glo™ rLuciferase-based luminescent ATP detection system, and the Perkin Elmer ATPlite™ 1step assay to resist common commercial luciferase inhibitors. The CellTiter-Glo® Assay has greater than 80% activity for 5 out of the 7 compounds at an inhibitor concentration of 10μM; whereas, ATPlite™ 1step has 80% activity for only 1 out of 7 compounds at the same inhibitor concentrations.

Ichigo needs to live a little, he could've been laid after a hot meal but the guy never gives in lol
The Kon filler was pretty interesting, I must say. And I usually don't like Kon fillers because Kon generally sucks when he's not in Ichigo's body, which is probably why this one was better. Also nice to see that we get some confirmation that this takes place after the Arrancar arc, as Ichigo comments on getting dirty looks while Kon wreaked havoc in his body during the arc. And for the record, Kon probably got more character development during this random filler than he has in the past two arcs.
Also, to quote Kon here, something that is perfectly true:
"You can't kill yourself, because even if you die, the Hollows will try to devour you. And going to Soul Society isn't much better!"
^ Exactly what makes death in Bleach pure shit summed up in a single sentence.
And major lol's at the damn idiots in Crunchyroll that think we're getting the Fullbring arc animated in a few weeks or something. HAHA.

I read something today on the Facebook that made me smile. It said "Childhood friends are the truest and the best!!!" Of course, it was one of my childhood friends whose status this was but nonetheless, it made me happy. She didn't write it and tag anyone particular in it – she just wrote what she felt. And she was right.
I've talked before about my friends from school and childhood that I still see on more than just an occasional basis. Whenever I talk to people about getting together with them, one of two things will happen: these people will either be completely dumbfounded that we are all still so close or they will look envious that they don't still have friendships with those people they went to school with.
Maybe it's because we grew up in a small town. We had a few shopping centers, churches of every denomination and more than one stop light so it wasn't like a one-horse town but still, you pretty much knew everyone's name. If you didn't all you had to ask was "Who are your people?" and more times than not you knew their relatives, and were probably related to them yourself.
Friday nights were spent at the football field watching the Indians play. The people of our town supported us, they disciplined us, they believed in us and they loved us.
If something went all wonky, everyone knew it. But they also knew when you were hurting and needed help. No one had to ask, people just did for each other.
I'm glad that I'm a product of growing up where I did and that I still have friendships that are 40+ years old and still going strong.
You know, Miranda Lambert has a song out called "The House That Built Me". The first time I heard it, it made me think that friends also build you in addition to helping write the chapters in your life's story – good, bad or ugly. Friends are like a house. They're your foundation, they're the walls that protect you from the storms of life and they give you places to gather in times of sadness and joy.
I'm thankful for my people. In only 23 days, the annual JUGs Lake Weekend will be celebrated. Some are unable to make it this year, while we'll have others that are making it for their first time. We'll laugh, we'll cry, we'll hug and probably shock each other once or twice with some of the things that will be said. But one thing's for sure – we'll leave there knowing they will be there for us no matter what. And that's a mighty good feeling. One we don't take lightly or for granted.
"Childhood friends are the truest and best!!!" Yes they are Steph. They surely are.

Castle Dale City Mayor Neal Peacock opened the first city council meeting of 2010 recently by expressing great thanks to GayLee Jeffs and Jack Rogers for their service to the city. "Change is emotional, it always is. It has been a great pleasure to work with GayLee and Jack. Your service is incredibly appreciated," said Mayor Peacock. He then gave each a plaque of appreciation.
Jeffs and Rogers' terms were complete and the newly elected members of the council were then given the oath of office. Julie Johansen and Jeremy Jewkes, along with re-elected Mayor Peacock, were sworn in by city recorder Linda Turner.
Assignments were then given to each of the councilmembers and the mayor. Mayor Peacock will oversee code enforcement, elderly and senior citizens, Main Street and businesses, the forest service house project, and city hall employees and cleaning.
Councilman Brad Giles is over streets, water, drains, sewer, cemetery, Cheddar Park and ball field, Little Valley View Park, and the special service district.
Councilman Joel Dorsch will oversee maintenance workers, Blue Sage Arena, rodeo grounds, parks, ball fields, city hall maintenance and lawns, and city hall park.
Councilperson Kollette Cologie will be over city celebrations, youth city council and beautification.
Councilperson Johansen will oversee land use planning and zoning, and emergency preparedness.
Councilman Jewkes is over the fire department and animal control. Each of these responsibilities is to commence immediately.
City code enforcement officer Richard Herring reported some vehicles which remain on the city streets have been snowed in due to the snow removal process. He also noted some business license issues which need to be discussed.
For the fire department, Herring reported that training is coming for Castle Dale fire department volunteers. NIMS training is available online for all city employees and volunteers, along with the city council members. Councilperson Johansen reported the CERT training is being held in Emery Town and those who want are able to attend those sessions.
Herring stated during 2009, the fire department responded to one structure fire, four structure fires in other towns, seven accidents, one with extrication needed, six grass fires, one dumpster fire, six fireworks incidents, one haystack fire, and four miscellaneous calls. Five-hundred-seventy man hours of training were also recorded by the eight regular members of the fire department.
Councilman Dorsch said the Blue Sage Arena is in its fifth year of operation. "We need to discuss fees. I am thinking about $70 for general members and lowering the rate for individuals who use the arena to train horses for other people," said Dorsch. The council discussed the rate for trainers and was informed that only one person paid those rates last year. The council decided to set the rate for trainers at $200 for the year's use of the arena. They also decided to require farriers to pay the general member rate.
Mayor Peacock reappointed Danny Whiteleather to the Castle Dale seat to the Emery County Recreation board. "Councilman Dorsch was appointed to an at large seat by the Emery County Commissioners," said Mayor Peacock. He then expressed his thanks to all the members of the fire department for their outstanding work and service. He acknowledged the job done by the city employees also. "We have the best plowed streets around," said Mayor Peacock.
"The census bureau has contacted the city and asked for office space to conduct the census this February," Mayor Peacock continued. "We are going to allow them to work from this building during that time. I have also spoken with John Healy, who is the interim manager for the forest service, about the forest service house on Main Street. He is now aware of what we have been trying to do and he has been very helpful. In 1947, Castle Dale City purchased that property with the understanding the forest service headquarters would be located there. They never did that, but moved in the house that is there from Joe's Valley and have been renting it to their employees. Senators Hatch and Bennett and Rep. Matheson have been helping in this situation and we recently received half of the property back. That is where the toys and lawn are now. We are still working to get the other half of this property and we plan to remove the house and put in more lawn space at the fairgrounds.
"REAL Salt Lake has contacted the city to help out with a celebration they are planning to take to each county in Utah with activities and to display the national championship trophy the team recently won. We are looking at Feb. 3 for the celebration to be held in Castle Dale," said Mayor Peacock. "More details will be announced when they are made."
Mayor Peacock went over the budget with the council stating the fiscal year is half completed. He noted each department is very close to being on budget and everyone has been very cooperative. The city's budget has been reduced by 10 percent. "Most items are very close to what we expected and budgeted for," said the Mayor.

Sing praises to our God, sing praises.
Verse: Clap your hands, all you nations.
BRETHREN, having been set free from sin, you have become slaves of righteousness. I am speaking in human terms, because of your natural limitations. For just as you once yielded your members to impurity and to greater and greater iniquity, so now yield your members to righteousness for sanctification.
When you were slaves of sin, you were free in regard to righteousness. But then what return did you get from the things of which you are now ashamed? The end of those things is death. But now that you have been set free from sin and have become slaves of God, the return you get is sanctification and its end, eternal life. For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Williamsburg, Massachusetts resident Linda Knox Gibbon went to Haiti recently. She traveled with 10 volunteers and 2 staffers from the Haitian Health Foundation, a non-profit organization based in Norwich, Connecticut. The foundation serves over 200,000 people in 100 rural villages in southern Haiti. Gibbon says she got interested in going to Haiti after hearing a member of the foundation speak at a meeting of the Zonta Club. The talk changed her winter travel plans.
Linda Knox Gibbon will speak about her trip to Haiti with the Haitian Health Foundation Thursday night at 7:30 pm at the Meekins Library in Williamsburg, Massachusetts.

Happy Friday, boys. Let's get this party started -- peacock-style.
Good to see the Nature entries coming in! I interpreted Mother Nature fairly broadly, with a Night Sky over the Desert. Original photographer is a Dan Ransom (click image to go to his online album). I just thought the image was awe-inspiring. I've tried to echo some of the colours, motifs, and the "feel" of the textures in my look, but really, the photo is too good for me to do it justice!
Casual day for me - not travelling and working from home. If I can get enough done, it's off for skiing by mid-afternoon. For the nature theme, I guess a mountain stream is where I was going with this.

Emery Town council held a public hearing for input on the proposed water source improvements for the town. The total project cost is estimated at $6.67 million for construction, permitting, mapping, administrative costs, engineering and related expenses.
Mayor Mistie Christiansen went before the Community Impact board and recently obtained a grant/loan package for a total of $1,070,000 for the project. The US Army Corps of Engineers is contributing $5 million toward the project. Other funds procured for the project include: Consol Mining for $125,000; Muddy Creek Irrigation and Energy Sector for $475,000.
Christiansen reported the grant/loan package awarded by the CIB was for 75 percent grant and 25 percent loan. The loan total equals $270,000 over a 30 year period at 0 percent interest. "I feel like we are lucky to get that amount," said the mayor.
One of the purposes of the public hearing was to discuss a needed adjustment in the water rates of $4-5 per month. These increases in water rates will be used to make the loan payments each year. If more money is needed the town could obtain financing for the needed money. Consol Mine has also indicated they may be able to donate additional funds in the future towards the project. Mayor Christiansen was extremely grateful for obtaining CIB funding. If the town had to stand the cost of their match money for the Corps of Engineers contribution, rate payers in the town could have seen water rates increase by $110 a month.
The plan is to pipe the canal to the highway or until funds run out. There are many benefits for the project including a 30-40 percent water savings by stopping canal seepage. Currently the Muddy Creek canal company is working on the silting structure which must be in place before the canal piping project can begin. Any funds left over from the silting structure can be transferred to the canal project.
Public comments seemed to favor the increase in water rates to help fund the project. One resident said 20 years ago the town had passed up on a reservoir and with the $6 million in hand now, the town should move forward with the canal piping project.
John Byars said in past years when the canal froze over the city wells had stinky sulphur water the residents had to drink. He said there is a layer of mud underneath the city and the old church is sinking. With the canal being piped then maybe some of the muddy fields will dry up. The ground water is only down a foot and a half and basements in the town are nothing but trouble.
One citizen said, "We have never had this much money to help us."
The increases in the water rates will be gradual. The canal piping project will not increase water pressure, but quality pressure pipe 150-160 psi will be used. A 12 percent budget overage has been added into the budget for the project. The pipeline will be shortened if the project should run out of money. The town council voted to move ahead with the project with council members Dave Mangum and Corrine Dalton voting yes and Pat Sundstrom voting no.
The regular town meeting commenced at the close of the public hearing. The first item was the approval of the amended budget.
Amy Sundstrom reported the town received enough donations to purchase the flowers for the planters and baskets along Main Street. The town clean-up was a success and awards went to Ashley Sundstrom and Randy Lake.
The cement for the town signs will be poured at the same time one of the citizens does a pour to reduce costs.
Alisha Roberts gave the historical society report saying they are deciding which buildings to move to the historical park.
Fire chief Nash Roberts will take part in a trip to Nebraska in June to inspect the fire trucks as they are built. By January, each community will receive a new truck. The spaghetti dinner fund raiser for Linda Barnes was a big success.
Commissioner Gary Kofford said the new fire trucks are valued at $300,000 each and will be given free to each community because of CIB funds and money the fire district in the county has saved being utilized to purchase the new trucks. Each city will be free to choose what they want to do with their old fire truck. They can try to sell them if they want.
Mayor Christiansen asked Kofford what is going on with the building inspection program in the county. Kofford took a minute to compliment Mayor Christiansen on the water project. He said she has worked hard to get the funds to proceed with the project. She wrote the grant that went to the Army Corps of Engineers and within two-three weeks, Emery Town was notified it had received the grant. "She pulled this together and I'm glad to see you support her," said Kofford.
Kofford explained there has been a lot of opposition in the county to having a building inspector. The county is operating under state law and Utah has adopted the International Building code and so Emery County did as well. Where a building inspector program is active homeowners can get the best rates on insurance and fire insurance. If a home is not inspected by a building inspector, then it is harder to get a loan. Banks won't loan money on homes that aren't inspected. Home inspection is a protection to the future homeowner. If something is installed wrong, then hopefully the building inspector will pick-up on it. Emery County has a good ISO rating and every three years that rating is re-evaluated. "As council people you have been sworn-in to uphold the law in the state of Utah. Remember that as you debate this issue. May 11 was the county building inspector's last day. We will meet with the mayors to see what they want to do. Six years ago the towns approached the county. They wanted the county to hire a qualified inspector. We are trying to do what the mayors have asked us to do and there has been a lot of criticism. We have hired Sunrise Engineering for all current inspections until we meet with the mayors and decide where to go.
"Certified building inspectors must pass nine tests and sign an agreement they will uphold the law. They attend three-four weeks of schooling each year. Each building inspector will see things different, but they should adhere to the code," said Kofford.
Corrine Dalton said if the county intends to go to Sunrise then it doesn't make sense for Emery to contract with Sunrise on their own, but to stay with the county.
Kofford said there is a lot of work involved in keeping records of all inspections. They must be kept for seven years. All the records for the county have been digitized. The county has a full-time planning and zoning secretary who schedules appointments and keeps track of all the bookwork. Kofford recommended Emery Town keep an inspection program going whether on their own, or through the county, he really didn't care. "I don't tell the inspectors anything. They should follow the IBC. Everyone, everywhere should be following that code. The code changes every year. In July each year those changes come into affect. This year the code for breaker boxes is changing. Rocky Mountain Power did an inspection and have identified five residents who will need to put new breaker boxes in. Rocky Mountain Power won't set a power pole or the gas company won't put in a meter, unless there's been an inspection. You can't get around it."
Kofford said since the mayors are the ones that wanted the program it will be up to them and their councils to decide the next step. He said the people who are doing the building should incur the cost of the inspectors. It takes $150,000 a year to run the planning and zoning office and the most collected from building fees was $90,000. So the department runs at a deficit as it is.
Emery Council tabled any recommendation on the building inspector program until after the mayors meet.
Emery Town approved the rate increases for out of city limits water connections for sewer and water, but they haven't signed the interlocal agreement. The town lawyer looked at the agreement and recommended some minor changes in language. If a person wants an outside water connection they go to the city first and then joint approval must be given with the town and the Castle Valley Special Service District.
Jacob Sharp, CVSSD manager said currently the agreement states that it's illegal to grant outside connections. The new policy allows such connections. Other communities have been grateful for this change that allows outside water connections.
Emery Council said they had a problem in the past with the district when the district denied an outside water connection for an Emery resident, when the same night three others were approved. The council wants to have a say over their water.
Sharp said he is new to the CVSSD and he can't say what was done before, he said he would have to review the minutes for the meeting in question where this action took place.
Mangum said if outside water users are willing to pay the bill to get these connections and the extra fees then there shouldn't be a problem with issuing outside water connections.
Mayor Christiansen said there has been a lack of trust between the district and Emery Town since that time. She would like to see a relationship restored between the town and the CVSSD.
Sharp said the CVSSD board will have to approve the changes in the interlocal agreement with Emery. Sharp said he would guess the board will go along and approve the agreement. The council agreed to table the signing of the interlocal agreement until the CVSSD board approves it. Brad Giles, CVSSD board president said the agreement might carry more weight if the Emery Council approved the agreement prior to its being sent to the CVSSD board. Emery Council agreed not to sign the interlocal agreement yet.
Sharp said there are seven other towns within the district and the board must work as a whole to the benefit of all towns. Sundstrom said their council is sensitive to what goes on in their town. That whole war with the water connection wasn't necessary if the connection had just been approved at the time.
Giles said there was an agreement in force at that time that said no outside water connections. Sharp said the district needs to be backed by Emery Town. Sundstrom said they don't want to have the CVSSD board decide for them. Sharp said if the town wants the benefits from the district, then they must abide by the rules of the board.
Mayor Christiansen invited her board to attend the CVSSD board meetings to voice their opinions.
The board approved the signing of a letter for mitigation planning which would come into play to acquire FEMA funds should the town ever need disaster funding.
Several citizens were on hand to discuss nuisance dogs in Emery. It is difficult to walk a dog on a leash without getting attacked by dogs running loose. The town has an ordinance in force and needs to use it. Patrick Sundstrom is the animal control officer for Emery and he has a ticket book and will begin writing tickets for offending animals. If loose dogs are about, you can call the sheriff's office and they are supposed to send an animal control officer. Private citizens can call and make these complaints. Deputies can offer citations on the complaint of a resident. Sundstrom said he has had luck in talking to people about their dogs. The town office will put out a call to all residents notifying them that action will be taken with loose dogs.
The EMT parking will be paved at the new fire station and also a piece by the post office.
In the public lands update, the mayor said the Emery County Land use bill is in draft form and waiting for a map. There is concern now where it will go without Sen. Bennett as a supporter of the bill.
The Ferron Canal Company and the Cattleman's Association is not happy with the reintroduction of the Colorado Cutthroat trout into the Ferron drainage. A meeting will be held with the Division of Wildlife Resources at the Ferron City hall to discuss it.
Sundstrom suggested the CVSSD board meetings be held in a more comfortable location. The room where they meet is small and not conducive to having the public attend.
Dalton reported the annexation plan is behind schedule. A public hearing will need to be held as the next step.
The July 24 celebration this year is a town reunion year. The town office will have flyers made up for residents to copy and send to former residents and family members. Activities include a lawn mower race, softball games, horseshoe tourney, dinner, breakfast, kids games, dances, rodeo, talent show and a dunking booth where council members can be dunked.
Dalton said she had received a complaint concerning water running from open risers in the town. Emery Town has a rule about no 24 hour watering and no watering between the hours of 10 a.m. and 6 p.m.
The next Emery Town meeting is June 8 at 6 p.m.

Interested groups should allow at least 3 weeks in advance of the desired date in order to schedule a program. Requests provided within less than three weeks of the desired date will receive a lower priority for scheduling and Campus Recreation & Wellness cannot guarantee that these groups will be accommodated. Our ability to meet requests given with less than the desired advance notice will often be contingent upon course and staff availability and complexity of the requested program.
Groups are expected to meet a standard for a minimum number of participants or be prepared to pay a minimum fee in order to be eligible for booking. A table providing the minimum fee/participants is available on the web site for your review. Small groups may be accommodated if they meet the minimum participant/fee requirement. This decision is at the discretion of ECU Campus Recreation and Wellness.
Groups must contact Campus Recreation and Wellness at least 1 week prior to their scheduled event if they must cancel. Failure to do so will lead to forfeit of deposit or prior payment in advance for the next program scheduled.
All participants must have a waiver/medical form completed and signed before participating in any course activities. Any participant under the age of 18 must have their wavier/medical form signed by a parent/guardian in advance and have available to submit before participation in the course activities. No one under the age of 18 will be allowed to participate without this documented parental consent.
In the event of inclement weather, Campus Recreation & Wellness will make the decision as to whether the program will be held or rescheduled/canceled. Generally, programs will be held as scheduled unless safety is a concern or the group experience is significantly affected. Course staff will determine if it is safe to start and continue a program.
Programs that are canceled by ECU Campus Recreation and Wellness prior to start time due to inclement weather or other unforeseen circumstances will be rescheduled if possible and groups will NOT be responsible to forfeit deposit or payment. However, courses that are ended early because of weather or unforeseen circumstances, but after at least half the program has completed, will be classified as complete and payment will be expected as usual.
Scheduling of programs will be based on course and staff availability, and no specific dates are guaranteed to groups unless already confirmed, though we always attempt to meet groups' first requests. Groups should have first, second, and third requests for dates when they attempt to finalize scheduling with ECU Campus Recreation and Wellness.
Participants are only allowed to use ECU Campus Recreation and Wellness climbing equipment- no personal climbing equipment (other than shoes) may be used on the course.
Participants must have appropriate clothing and footwear- athletic loose fitting clothing appropriate to the outdoors and the season and closed toed shoes. Any individuals without appropriate footwear and attire will not be allowed to participate.
Potentially unsafe jewelry, objects in pockets, watches and other accessories preferably should be removed before participation and can be kept locked in the field house for participants. ECU Campus Recreation & Wellness is not responsible for lost, misplaced, or stolen personal items.
Food and drink should be consumed away from the course elements and Alpine Tower and Giant Swing structures.
Climbing on any course equipment is permitted only when supervised and directed by course staff.
Participants are expected to treat staff and other participants in a respectful manner and use appropriate language. Participants must also properly use course structures and equipment and follow guidelines as set by course staff.
Safety is of utmost concern and any safety issues should be reported to course staff immediately. If a participant is unwilling to comply with guidelines they may be asked to end their participation and leave the premises.
Participants are encouraged to hydrate properly before, during, and after the program in order to increase their level of safety and a comfort.

Straps Break
"This is the second time I have purchased a Kelly & Katie wedge because they are extremely comfortable and cute. However the straps on both pairs of wedges broke - the first pair after three months of wear and this pair in less than one month of purchasing (approximately five times wearing the shoe). Yes, they are comfortable and look good on, but the quality is poor. I should have read the other reviews first. Spend your money on a higher quality wedge."

Trust reviews!
"I bought these for my Vegas bachelorette party because the reviews said they were so comfy...but they didn't show up on time! :( I almost returned them...but I'm so glad I didn't because they are great. The ultimate test was wearing them to work as a teacher all day on my feet! The color goes with everything (black, brown, blue, tan...) and they are super comfy."

"My second pair of these (dogs got the first) and just loved them until the second pair fell apart. The sole and wedge came apart which seemed like poor gluing. I wish they were of better quality because they went with everything and my go to shoe. I just may bye a third but will check out the shoe thoroughly before I purchase."

Very narrow
"I have slightly wide feet but can usually fit most shoes very comfortably. These were horrible! I usually like this brand a lot, but my foot looked (and felt) like a stuffed sausage in this shoe. If you have medium to wide feet, be careful!"

Ferron residents participated in their annual clean-up on a brisk and cold Saturday morning. Beautification Committee chairman, Emily Neilson said, "The Ferron Beautification Committee is out of hybernation and alive. We were the first city in Emery County to organize a city-wide clean up. On March 24, 80-90 volunteers showed up for the spring project. Many people worked in their own neighborhoods or helped on service projects. Volunteers painted the red curbs and cleaned up main street. The Mayor's Park was hard edged, the flower beds detailed, the dug-out benches were painted and the fence line was cleaned up. Other groups weeded flower beds at the senior citizen center and the Emery County Care Center. Beautification is what you make of it. It only took us three hours to make a difference."
The Ferron beautification efforts will continue throughout the spring and summer months. One of their next projects will include planting flowers around the city.
