Scripture: 2Chronicles (NIV) 26:5 …As long as he (King Uzziah) sought the Lord, God gave him success.
2Chronicles (NIV) 27:6 Jothan (Uzziah's son) grew powerful because he walked steadfastly before the LORD his God.
Observation: The success of this father/son duo is credited not to their great leadership, but rather to their relationship with God. Their success as kings was given to them from God because they honored God as God.
Application: Seeking God to know His will AND walking steadfastly before God is my formula for success in any endeavor of life. To know God, to hear God, and to obey God brings me purpose, confidence and success.
NOTE: Feelings of success are often wrapped up in others. I feel successful when the significant people around me think I am successful. As a Christian, my most significant other is God. When God thinks I am successful, it does not matter what anyone else says! I take my greatest joy from His joy in me. I am like the little boy playing soccer who is always looking to see if his father is watching.
Prayer: Lord, life is really all about you! I am successful when I make you smile! Amen
Pastor Leon
Making friends for time and eternity!

I loved it. It was weird. It was gorgeous. It was ..pink water buffaloes? I don't know what to make of this movie, but I do know I own the damn thing on DVD, so I suppose I'll have to give it another look. There was so much good, and such good satire amidst all the strangeness, but I don't know if Matru is, at the end of the day, just an okay oddball movie, or a splendid underappreciated masterpiece.
The Biggest Causes of Worry: the various struggles of the young generation
I'm talking questionable movie picks (I know they can't all be winners but I'd want to see Parineeti Chopra in something good, and Shuddh Desi Romance was not it), weird appearance changes (Anushka Sharma's face) and careers generally headed towards the toilet (Abhay Deol, Imran Khan). I like some of these people. I may not love all of them, but I do wish them all the best, and it saddens me to see these young stars take significant missteps. Don't Saif Ali Khan your career, guys, let's pull it together.
A Thing That Happened That I Didn't Think I Could Type In 2014: Karan Johar directed a kiss scene between two men
No, seriously, I did not think that would happen. As for the short film itself, well, I like Karan Johar sometimes, flaws and all. And believe me, there were flaws. (I also need to rewatch Bombay Talkies, I don't believe I ever reviewed it in full.)
The Top Five Most Epic Film Experiences I Had in India (because I must gloat)
- DDLJ at Maratha Mandir. Enough said.
- Sholay 3D in Juhu, amongst people who loved it and who could quote it by heart. I am the luckiest son of a gun.
- Dhoom 3. Because Dhoom 3. And also, Dhoom 3, which stars Aamir Khan and Aamir Khan, and I am happy that was a thing that was.
- The Tamil film Kumki, viewed at night, in a village setting. Magical.
- Dancing so enthusiastically to Badtameez Dil from Yeh Jawaani Hai Dewaani at a Chennai New Year's Eve event that some random folks came to tell me I rock out harder to Bollywood music than most Indians. I was flattered, but it was only because I never get to dance to Bollywood music outside my bedroom that I was so into it. That, and...
My Film of the Year: Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani
Because as much as I appreciated other films last year, YJHD was the only one that hit home on all fronts - it was funny, charming, had a cute romance, a rocking soundtrack, a beautiful depiction of female friendship and inspired me to think about some of my choices in life. For a guy I am not a fan of, Ranbir Kapoor keeps performing in a manner that is hard not to like, and Deepika Padukone continues to impress. It's a movie I saw, and then went back to, and have gone back to twice or three times after first seeing it. I love it. I just love it.

Hello everyone. Pulling my hair out over which one I should buy. Some pro's and con's of each I have come up with.
About 100 bucks cheaper were I live in Australia then the MS - 20 mini.
Real VCO (don't actually have anything with one of them).
Eurorack (very expandable/easy to made more flexible).
Smaller size factor then MS 20 mini, no space wasted with keyboard. Very important to me at least.
Signal Spliter (very useful I understand )
Limited out of box(1 vco 1 12db filter etc)
Much more out of the box features (2 OSC/multifilter/ 2 EG's etc)
MS 20 Filter
Not sure if it has true VCO's (Does Digitally stabilized just mean DCO or something else?) (Oscillators sound very tuned and I guess "flat", not that this is bad but everything I have is like this lol) (DSI went to the trouble of putting a "analog" function in their keyboards lol)
Can't properly interface with anything else (Hz octave V per octave thingy).
Thoughts very much appreciated (:

Guests walking into a room at the hotel "Arte Luise Kunsthotel" find themselves within a work of art. Each room is unique, each room an artistic proposition, a museum, a gallery, an artwork and a place to inhabit.
A Berlin philosopher has added a dialectical dimension to the public areas of Luise. Sculptures greet guests in the hotel lobby. The director of a well-known public art gallery wrote about us, "This hotel is a place for art and an artwork of its own."
This has been made possible by over 50 artists who accepted the hotel's invitation to make a contribution. In designing different rooms artists have created scenarios that go beyond their work in the studio and reflect on the time, place, and situation of the traveler. The entire room is taken into consideration, usually including the furniture and other decorations.
The artists receive approx. 5% of the profit from "their" room as payment - a so-called artist obolus - a one-time compensation for materials and other costs, and a number of free overnight stays.
Most rooms are recommissioned every 2-5 years.
As the worldwide media response and the numerous guests of our house attest to the success of the unique project. This is our motivation for continuing to improve the quality of the hotel and offer new platforms for all manifestations of art with an outstanding niveau.

A team of astronomers has discovered half a dozen exocomets, which may be as common as exoplanets orbiting other stars, researchers said Tuesday.
The research, presented Monday at the American Astronomical Society meeting in Long Beach, could provide tantalizing clues about the growth and evolution of alien planetary systems.
"We've found essentially the leftover building blocks of planetary systems," said UC Berkeley astronomer Barry Welsh, who presented the research.
Comets around other stars may seem hard to find, given that exoplanets are already a challenge and comets are much smaller -- typically 3 to 13 miles wide. But using a telescope at the McDonald Observatory in Texas, Welsh's team looked for hints of comets that had evaporated as they fell toward their stars, leaving a recognizable mark on their home stars' light signatures.
Searching the skies for Earth-like planets outside our solar system, or exoplanets, scientists have found many fully formed, multi-planet systems around other stars – what might be considered adult systems. They've also found what look like infant systems, stars with a primordial disk of gas and dust surrounding them, looking much like our solar system must have in its early stages before the debris coalesced to form the planets.

Yesterday I had the privilege of presenting a 1.5 hour talk on private midwifery practice to the midwifery students at Deakin University in Burwood. I love having the opportunity to inspire the next generation of midwives.
I know some visitors to this blog are studying midwifery, in many countries. In today's post I want to give you an outline of my presentation, and links to some of the key documents.
The parts of the presentation were:
- Overview and introduction: developing a strong 'midwife identity'
- Private midwifery practice, changes in legislation with Medicare rebates and other changes for eligible midwives. Go to Midwives Australia for more information and links
- Planning for birth: philosophy of birth based on the statement that "In normal birth there should be a valid reason to interfere with the natural process" (WHO 1996); decision-making concepts of 'Plan A' and 'Plan B', birth preparation meeting handout
- DVD of a beautiful home/water birth [One picture used here with permission - the visual image is sooo powerful!]
- Highlighting aspects of midwifery practice that can apply only when the whole labour progresses under natural hormonal, unmedicated processes: physiological third stage, and baby's transition from the womb
- Questions
Please follow these links if you are interested in the topics mentioned. I intend to prepare a post on 'Planning for birth' at my private midwifery blog - will do that as soon as I can.
For the record, my relationship with the Deakin University School of Nursing and Midwifery is that I am employed as a casual lecturer, and as a tutor and marker for some of the midwifery Professional Development Unit Learning Packages. Several years ago I prepared one of the Learning Packages on the midwife in the community (PDU 323) and more recently I have written a Learning Package on Caseload and Homebirth midwifery, which is being processed in preparation for release.

We had a superb campaign event at our house in Bluffton around the middle of last month. There were more than 200 folks in our backyard enjoying the best efforts of the storied Broken Arrow barbecue consortium. There was a fair number of dollars raised, as smart people understand that supporting effective leadership is a good investment, with the dividend currency being good governance and enhanced quality of life.
Did I mention that the barbecue was simply outstanding, as were the adult beverages, the spirited conversation? And, of course, the natural beauty of an early fall evening in the South Carolina Lowcountry is almost beyond sublime. Our friends and supporters from Bluffton, Hilton Head, Hardeeville and Ridgeland enjoyed an evening, the details of which were so well organized by my wife Rose that they just seemed to spontaneously occur.
Being a somewhat political event, I spoke briefly, following a proper invocation by my son William, who didn't seem at all intimidated by the fact that the last invocation delivered at this venue was from Sen. Tim Scott. The gist of my brief remarks was basically about strength through unity. Each of my delegation colleagues was at the event, there to support "the new guy." We have a shared understanding that we play bigger and stronger at the statehouse because we are friends, congenial colleagues, and all dedicated to a common purpose. Our reason for service is not personal aggrandizement, but to represent the interests of our constituents and to help our state reach its highest and most worthy potential.
In an earlier column in this space, I mentioned that I had been honored by selection as a member of the Liberty Fellowship. Well, I attended my first seminar as a fellow at Wofford University from Oct. 16-20. The theme of the convocation was "The Challenge of Leadership." For four days, I, and a host of other fellows - momentary strangers from all walks of life, leaders in one capacity or another - came together to discuss various evocative readings having to do with leadership.
We plowed the turf from Machiavelli, to Eurocrat Jean Monnet, mythologist Edith Hamilton, Margaret Thatcher's "The Downing Street Years," to Samuel's story of David and Bathsheba, and Dr. Martin Luther King's "Letter From Birmingham Jail."
The readings were used to illuminate various discussions, such as "Models of Leadership," "Leading with Integrity," and "Stepping Up to Lead." Being in an academic setting with two dozen very smart, motivated fellows was a reminder of not only the incredible luxury of being able to discuss the big ideas for no other reason than to come to a more mature understanding of matters that have been passionate fodder for debate for centuries, but also the extraordinary gift from my parents of four years at Washington and Lee. They knew what I was then unready to understand.
My time at Wofford was incredibly rewarding. I did, however, miss my son scoring his only touchdown for the little league Bluffton Bobcats during the season. In an effort to make it up to William (and me), we, and a group of his pals, went to see South Carolina vs. Mississippi State. Then a father-son trip to see Carolina Panthers vs. Atlanta Falcons in Charlotte, N.C. With lots of time to chat, we had our own seminar. Perhaps not at the level of Liberty Fellowship, but William has a rudimentary understanding that being a scholar and an All-American linebacker are not mutually exclusive. Right now, he would prefer the latter, but it's good to have choices.
Weston Newton represents District 120 in the South Carolina House of Representatives. His column will run monthly in Bluffton Today. He can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com.

|The 2012 Trek Transport, including Bontrager bag. Credit: Trek website.
This is a cargo bike done the right way. I'm very happy that Trek, having swallowed up the Gary Fisher brand, is at least continuing to execute some of his best ideas. The Transport comes with well-designed, well-proportioned front and rear racks, fenders, disc brakes (makes good sense on a fully-loaded cargo bike), and kickstand (the specs say it's a double kickstand, but the photos show a regular kickstand).
Now here's a feature I really like: flip-flop dropouts. This means you can have vertical or horizontal dropouts, which allows you to choose whether you want a derailer with multiple gears, a single speed, or an internal gear hub. Versatility is nice.
You can also opt for the Transport Plus, which gives you an electric assist.

A part of me wondered whether this was a good satirical piece worthy of The Onion. The guy's name alone seemed like a joke. But after a brief search it looks like this is a real book.
I should point out that it would not have been possible for the pre-Christian pagans he mentions to expect humping would make their tomatoes grow. Tomatoes originated in South America and were not brought across the Atlantic until at least the year 1500.

The Energy Information Administration released its long awaited report on the impact of U.S. natural gas exports and it should be very exciting for every American interested in jobs and growth. The EIA says not only will exporting our sudden abundance of natural gas be a good idea, but it could prove to be a boom for the US economy. The EIA examined many "what-if" scenarios and under every one it found that the impact of liquefied natural gas exports would be a positive for the economy under each one. The EIA says that it would be possible that the US could produce almost four billion cubic feet of gas per day by 2027 which is about 6.6% of the country's current natural-gas consumption.
Of course some are not happy. Some manufactures are worried that we may give up some of our low gas price comparative advantage! Environments say they believe fraccing pollutes groundwater. They say they believe it does, but they have no evidence that it does. The NATION reported that fraccing causes cattle's ears and tails to fall off. Of course I think they also believe that cattle are being mutilated by aliens as well.
Oil prices got hit by a massive build in U.S. gasoline supplies as refiners rose to the occasion to replace lost supply in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy! It was like the Fourth of July as refinery runs surged above 90! The EIA reported that U.S. commercial crude oil inventories (excluding those in the Strategic Petroleum Reserve) decreased by 2.4 million barrels from the previous week. At 371.8 million barrels, U.S. crude oil inventories are well above the upper limit of the average range for this time of year. Total motor gasoline inventories increased by 7.9 million barrels last week and are in the upper half of the average range. Both finished gasoline inventories and blending components inventories increased last week. Distillate fuel inventories increased by 3.0 million barrels last week but remained well below the lower limit of the average range for this time of year. Propane/propylene inventories decreased by 0.3 million barrels last week, but remained well above the upper limit of the average range. Total commercial petroleum inventories increased by 5.9 million barrels last week.

Glasgow School of Art Facade Model
Glasgow School of Art's Mackintosh Building, "The Mac" or "Toshie" as it is commonly known, was voted Britain's favorite building of the last 175 years in a 2009 Royal Institute of British Architects poll. The facade is asymmetric with tower like masonry walls and small windows which evoke Scottish baronial architecture. Building was started in 1897 to a design created by the school's most famous alumnus, Charles Rennie Mackintosh, a leading proponent of the Arts and Crafts and Art Nouveau movements in the United Kingdom. The Mackintosh Building is his masterwork. This architectural sculpture is of the slightly off-center entrance facade. It was handcrafted by the duo Chisel & Mouse in their studio in Sussex, England and is made of strong plaster that has a reassuring weight and smooth, cool feel. The window frames and door are made of etched brass. See more work from Chisel & Mouse here.

SYDNEY (Reuters) - An Australian mining magnate who plans to build a replica of the Titanic said on Friday he is delaying a New York gala to unveil details of the project out of respect to those affected by Hurricane Sandy.
Billionaire businessman Clive Palmer had planned to hold a dinner aboard the former aircraft carrier USS Intrepid on December 4, serving guests a menu based on the 11-course meal that was provided to first class passengers on the Titanic the night it sank in 1912.
"Mayor Michael Bloomberg canceled the city's world renowned New York Marathon last weekend as he didn't want a cloud to hang over the event in the wake of the hurricane and the damage it inflicted," Palmer said in an emailed statement.
"New York had a close relationship with the original RMS Titanic and the shipping company White Star Line and we believe it is too early to be holding our launch while the city and the region continues its recovery," he added.
Palmer's Blue Star Line, the company created to finance the Titanic project, said the dinner and coordinated events in Boston, London, Southampton and Halifax, Canada, will be rescheduled for late February 2013.
If the project goes to plan, Titanic II is scheduled make its maiden voyage from Southampton, England, to Manhattan in 2016.
Palmer has promised that the ship, to be built by China's SinoTrans, will be as luxurious as its ill-fated namesake but will also encompass modern technology, including the latest navigation and safety systems.
The original Titanic, the largest liner in the world when it was launched and dubbed "virtually unsinkable," sank en route to New York after hitting an iceberg in April 1912, killing 1,517 passengers and crew.

Each flowchart should ideally begin with a Terminator shape, from which the next step should be linked. Each shape should be indicative of a specific stage in the process and there are conventions for each of these, the most common being the rectangular Process shape. Many others exist, however, including shapes representing Data, Documents and Decisions. Decision shapes are diamonds, each of the four corners (or nodes) being either a link from the preceding shape or action to be taken in the next stage depending on the decision.

All Work and No Play Makes Wade A Dull Boy
The Boys had their final Alamodome practice yesterday and will be heading back home to Cowboys Stadium for the second preseason game against the Tennessee Titans.
Word has it the starters could play into the third quarter. Nick Eatman at dallascowboys.com gives good reasons for this unusual plan and it makes complete sense to me.
1. The Cowboys first game in the new stadium. It's going to be one heck of a celebration.
2. It's the Titans third preseason game so they are in that mode.
Eatman says Wade Phillips didn't say how long the starters would play, just that it would be a lot more than last week's game.
Another interesting story that caught my attention was Wade complaining about the running race between David Buehler and DeAngelo Smith. As posted earlier this week, the two rookies ran a foot race and DB Smith was burned by K Buehler in a 50 yard dash.
Coach surprisingly put his foot down and decided he was not going to allow any more "extracurricular activity" for fear of an unnecessary injury.
Not sure how to feel about that one. I agree we don't want any injuries from horsing around, but these are athletes and competition is always a good thing. I think I will stay neutral on this because I can understand both sides.
Finally, ESPN's Matt Mosley posted Three and Out: Cowboys over at this NFC East blog, basically only stating the obvious.
1. Get ready to hear a lot about the two-tight end offense.
2. The Cowboys could be in big trouble if there's an injury on the offensive line.
3. The Cowboys could have 63 sacks if everything goes as planned.
We have been blessed with two amazing tight ends and we sure plan to use them to the best of their abilities.
O-line, ugh. What can you say? No depth.
Sacks for everyone! Roll call – Ware, James, Spencer, Ratliff…!
Big (preseason) game tomorrow! Everyone get your game faces on and hope our 'Boys break in the new stadium with a outstanding win to remember. I let my boss know that I needed to get done early nearly two weeks ago, and I told him why. I'm setting the DVR anyway but you can imagine how mad I'll be if I don't make it home for a live kickoff. The Boys Are Back in Town!

If You Could Fly like a Bird
From earliest times, people have dreamed of flying like a bird. Wouldn't you like to just flap your arms and fly? But birds' entire bodies, not just their wings, are built specially for flight. So to fly like a bird, you'd have to make a few changes, and you might end up looking, well, kind of like a bird.
You'll need really big eyes to judge distances accurately for landings and to see the ground clearly from the sky.
Teeth are way too heavy. Trade yours in for a nice lightweight beak, and while you're at it, get rid of that nose. To fly well, your entire body needs to be smooth and streamlined.
You'll need feathers on your arms, of course. But your arms will have to be extra long to support your weight. A bald eagle has a 7-foot wingspan but weighs less than 15 pounds. A 60-pound kid would need wings nearly 75 feet wide!
It takes a lot of muscle to keep those giant arms flapping. If, like a bird, your flight muscles were in your chest, your chest would have to be about 5 feet deep!
You'll need a tail to help you steer and land.
If you can fly, why walk? And if you're not walking much, you won't need big, strong legs. To stay lightweight for flying, you'll be better off with short, skinny bird legs.
- accurate: Exactly right.
- streamlined: Made simpler and more efficient.
- Name a kind of bird that cannot fly. What does this bird's body look like? Why might the bird not be able to fly?
[anno: Answers will vary but could include a penguin or an ostrich. Students' reasons may include that the bird's body is too heavy for its wings to lift.]

Happy Thanksgiving Day everybody. At least all you Americans. The Canadians have it on a different day and those of you outside North America don't have it at all. Count yourselves lucky! I was never big on this particular holiday. Tomorrow is Black Friday, the biggest shopping day of the year, as everyone scrambles to get X-mas presents at bargain prices. And here I am, as a truly compassionate Buddhist Master, giving you the chance to get a jump on the day.
I've put some items of mine up for sale on eBay. Here's the scoop.
This is my Peavey bass guitar as seen in the film Cleveland's Screaming! A piece of my history, up for grabs because I don't wanna move the sucker. It is a truly great bass.
This is the toy bug I wrote about in a long-ago piece on my webpage. I have no idea if the piece is still up there. But lots of people seem to remember that one and write me about it still. I gotta give up the little guy, though. So here's your chance to own him for yourself! Beware. He's an expensive sucker.
Here's a boxed set of the TV show SPECTREMAN. Everybody remembers Spectreman from the 70's and 80's, one of the coolest Ultraman imitators of all. In fact, I like it better than Ultraman myself.
Megalon and Jet Jaguar figures by Microman. Nuff said.
Gamera from the film Gamera 3: The Advent of Irys. This figure is too rare to even believe I'd sell it. But there ya go.
DVD boxed set of War of the Colossal Beast and a bunch of other movies with a limited edition Colossal Beast figure! God I hate to give this one up.
DVD boxed set of the film Valley of Gwangi also with a limited edition figure. I so love this one. The figure is sooooo fuckin' cool. Give it a good home (sniff).
Godzilla 1998 figure. Also super duper cool. Please give him a good home, too.
Figure of the giant walrus monster Todora, from Ultra Q who also appeared in the movie Gorath, in which he was named Magma. The Americans cut him out of the US prints of the film! Bastards.

WCC Wrap-up and Postseason PrimerPosted by Brian Goodman on March 8th, 2011
Michael Vernetti is the RTC correspondent for the West Coast Conference.
Power Rankings and Postseason Outlook
1) Saint Mary's (24-8, 11-3). The record puts them slightly ahead of Gonzaga, but the Gaels would gladly trade places with the Zags as the NCAA Tournament looms. Without an automatic bid, the Gaels and their mediocre out-of-conference record are at the mercy of the NCAA Selection Committee. Hope for the Big Dance, but consider the NIT a strong possibility.
2) Gonzaga (24-9, 11-3), WCC Tournament Champions, recipient of automatic NCAA bid. How well a rugged out-of-conference schedule will hold up to the Selection Committee's scrutiny will determine where the Zags are seeded. They are definitely on an upsurge at regular season's end, something the committee considers favorably.
3) San Francisco (17-13, 10-4), not an NCAA Tournament contender but an intriguing late-season story, the Dons gave Gonzaga a tougher game in the WCC Tournament semis (lost 71-67) than Saint Mary's did in the championship game. The NIT is definitely a possibility for Rex Walters' team.
4) Santa Clara (19-13, 8-6) seems to fit the profile for a bid to the College Basketball Invitational or the CollegeInsider.com Postseason Tournament.
5) Portland (20-11, 7-7) posted another 20-win season and played in the CollegeInsider.com tourney last year, but would seem to rank behind Santa Clara for a bid this year.
6) Pepperdine (12-21, 5-9) finished with a small push to stay out of the bottom of the conference, but will have to settle for that. Team anomaly: the Waves played better with the dismissal of star guard Keion Bell than they did with him in the lineup.
7) San Diego (6-24, 2-12). The Toreros ruined Randy Bennett's season with their improbable upset of the Gaels on February 16, but did little else to give Bill Grier a reason for an upbeat off-season.
8) The hands-down Disappointment of the Year in the WCC, Loyola Marymount ended in last place after being picked second ahead of Saint Mary's in a pre-season coaches' poll. Does embattled Max Good have a future with the Lions after his team's utter collapse? Only time will tell.
A Look Back
When the nets were cut by the victorious Gonzaga Bulldogs Monday night at the Orleans Arena in Las Vegas, there was a sense of déjà vu for the West Coast Conference. The same foes, Gonzaga and Saint Mary's, battled it out for the WCC tournament championship and the automatic NCAA bid that went with it. Gonzaga won this year's title, 75-63, avenging an 81-62 pasting administered by the Gaels in 2010, and could claim WCC supremacy for the 11th straight year even though the Zags and Saint Mary's tied for the regular-season championship with 11-3 records. Gonzaga now stands at 24-9, and Saint Mary's at 24-8 with a rare Friday contest in between against Weber State – added as a warm-up for possible post-season play – still to come in Moraga.
For all the apparent similarities, however, the story of the Gaels and Bulldogs was marked by differences. The turning point in both teams' season came in a January 27 game between the two on the Zags' court in Spokane. Saint Mary's gutted out a 73-71 win on the strength of Mickey McConnell's last-second one-handed leaner from the free throw stripe with the Zag's seven-footer Robert Sacre draped all over him.
The game should have been a difference-maker for Saint Mary's, marking the first victory in Spokane during the immensely successful 10-year reign of 2011 WCC Coach of the Year Randy Bennett. Instead of using the victory to spark a late-season run to the outright WCC championship and a secure NCAA seeding, however, the Gaels stumbled badly from that point on. They were routed 85-70 by a pesky Portland Pilots team two nights later in Portland, followed that up with an inexplicable 74-66 loss to cellar-dwelling San Diego on February 16, lost an ESPN Bracketbuster contest against Utah State 75-65 in Moraga on the 19th, and then dropped the rematch against Gonzaga, 89-85 in overtime on the 24th to give the Zags a shot at a conference season tie. Only a regular season-ending victory over Portland in Moraga on February 26 enabled the Gaels to avoid total collapse heading into the WCC Tournament.
Gonzaga, on the other hand, used the Saint Mary's loss to spur itself to a 9-0 WCC run marred only by a 62-58 non-conference setback against Memphis on February 5. Gonzaga's spurt was fueled in part by the ascension of JC transfer Marquise Carter to the starting point guard spot that had eluded him previously. On the strength of his late-season play, Carter garnered Newcomer of the Year honors in the WCC and was named Most Valuable Player in the WCC Tournament, indicating the realization by other conference coaches of his impact on what had been a wavering Gonzaga offense.
As Selection Sunday looms, Gonzaga considers NCAA life with possibly a lower seeding than they are accustomed to – perhaps a 9 or 10 seed instead of a 5 or 6 – but they know they're in. Saint Mary's, on the other hand, will be Nervous Nellies on judgment day, hearkening back to two years ago when they were stiffed by the NCAA Selection Committee and won two games in the NIT instead. Most bracketologists had the Gaels in the NCAA field despite the WCC tournament result, but Bennett has been burned before and will probably not relax until he knows the Gaels' fate for sure. The game against Weber State was not intended, nor will serve, to sway the Selection Committee.
All-Conference Honors:
McConnell, the Gaels' crafty senior point guard, was voted Player of the Year and his stats – 16.8 points and 6.0 assists per game – reflected that. McConnell was joined on the All-Conference Team by his sophomore backcourt mate Matthew Dellavedova, who contributed 13.5 points and 5.3 assists-per-game, and junior transfer forward Rob Jones, who totaled 13.4 points per game and 7.5 rebounds per game. Others were:
- Kevin Foster, Santa Clara, the WCC's leading scorer at 19.4 ppg
- Steven Gray, Gonzaga 13.8 ppg and 3.9 apg
- Rashad Green, San Francisco guard, 11.8 ppg, 2.8 apg
- Nemanja Mitrovic, Portland guard, 13.7 ppg
- Mikey Williams, San Francisco guard, 15.0 ppg
- Robert Sacre, Gonzaga center, 12.5 ppg and 6.2 rpg
- Luke Sikma, Portland forward, 13.1 ppg and a league-leading 10.5 rpg

Enter the Superclass where you want to add functionality to a bunch of controls..
You get the properties for a class (in our case the edit window class) modify a few properties, and register the new class.
You call GetClassInfoEx 2 things: the name of the class you want to Superclass and a pointer to a WNDCLASSEX structure. GetClassInfoEx will fill that structure.
Next, modify WNDCLASSEX, there are 2 members you must modify - hInstance and lpszClassName and in our example we modify lpfnWndProc
hInstance will be the handle to your app you get from GetModuleHandle
lpszClassName will be the name of your new class
lpfnWndProc will be the address of our callback proc
Step by step...
Get the class info for the Edit window class
mov wc.cbSize, sizeof WNDCLASSEX invoke GetClassInfoEx, NULL, offset szWndClsEdit, addr wc
next change a few things, then register our new superclassed edit control:
push wc.lpfnWndProc pop lpEditWndProc mov wc.lpfnWndProc, offset WndProcEdit push hInst pop wc.hInstance ;##### Change the cursor for our edit windows invoke LoadCursor, NULL, IDC_UPARROW mov wc.hCursor, eax mov wc.lpszClassName, offset szWndClsSuperEdit invoke RegisterClassEx, addr wc
As with subclassing, we need to save the original address for the edit window proc so we can pass on the messages, #1 and #2
#3 we are telling windows to use our Window proc for all controls created with our class name not needed, but makes our life easier for our task
#4 - 5 we are setting the hInstance for the control, this is a must
I decided to change the cursor for our class to an up arrow #7-8
#9 we give our class a name this is a must
Then we register our class.. That is it, now you can CreateWindowEx with our new classname! Instead of having to create multiple procs to handle each edit control, all controls created with our classname, will use the same callback proc.
in the attached sample, I create 4 edit controls that only accept numbers
xor ebx, ebx mov edi, 5 .while ebx < 4 invoke CreateWindowEx, WS_EX_CLIENTEDGE, offset szWndClsSuperEdit, NULL, WS_CHILD or WS_VISIBLE or WS_TABSTOP, 5, edi, 285, 20, hWin, ebx, hInst, 0 mov dword ptr [hEditHandles + 4 * ebx], eax add edi, 50 inc ebx .endw
As you can see, superclassing a control is easier than subclassing if you want a bunch of controls with the same properties..

Healthy Kesler can make difference for Canucksby Dan Rosen
Vancouver Canucks center Ryan Kesler is expected to miss the start of the season for the second consecutive year after undergoing surgery in May. It's fair to ask if he'll ever get back to being the dominant two-way pivot he was two seasons ago, when he scored 41 goals and won the Selke Trophy.
30 in 30: Vancouver Canucks
Team Preview: It's Schneider's timeBy Dan Rosen - NHL.com Senior Writer
The Canucks appear set to go with Cory Schneider as their No. 1 goaltender, though the expected offseason trade of incumbent Roberto Luongo hasn't happened yet and could take a while. READ MORE ›
"I think he can be, but you've got to give his body a chance to follow his will and heart," NHL Network analyst and former Flames general manager Craig Button told NHL.com. "You're never going to question Kesler's determination to be an impact player, but if the body can't follow he's just not going to be the same player."
A year ago, Kesler was rehabbing during the summer after having labrum surgery on his hip. He missed the first five games of the season and later admitted he returned too soon. Making matters worse was the shoulder injury he incurred Feb. 9 -- an injury that basically stopped his productivity dead in its tracks.
After managing 18 goals and 20 assists through 49 games, Kesler had four goals and seven assists in the final 28 regular-season games. He did not score against the Los Angeles Kings in the Stanley Cup Playoffs, and soon after the Canucks were eliminated, Kesler had surgery that is expected to keep him out until mid-November.
"I think in all likelihood if the season started on time he probably wouldn't be ready, but I also think we'd have to see how he reacted to contact and different things that you don't see until you get into training camp," Canucks general manager Mike Gillis told NHL.com. "He's doing very well, he's on schedule, and there is a remote possibility if season started on time he might be ready, but in all likelihood he wouldn't."
Gillis said Jordan Schroeder, the Canucks' first-round pick (No. 22) in the 2009 NHL Draft, will compete to be the No. 2 center until Kesler returns.
Last season, Kesler struggled through Christmas, and when it appeared he was finally in a groove, scoring goals and playing his hard two-way game, he ripped up his shoulder and wasn't the same.
"When you miss training camp you're really behind. It's difficult to get going in season and it often takes some time," Gillis said. "There is a build-up that happens in training camp. The exhibition games don't have the emotional highs that a regular-season game has, and that's done because guys are realizing that it's to get ready for the regular season. When you miss all that time it can be challenging to get back and get going the way you want. But I think Ryan is going to be back and be fine."
Vancouver won the Presidents' Trophy last season without Kesler at his best, but it was run over by the Kings in the playoffs, when Kesler was playing injured. He was also playing injured in the 2011 Stanley Cup Final, and the Canucks couldn't withstand the pressure the Boston Bruins put on over a seven-game series.
"With medical procedures and advancements the players can all come back, but you have to evaluate the player in the manner with which he plays," Button said. "You're better off with Ryan to hold him back and get him back a week later rather than a week sooner because he doesn't know any other way to play.
"I have no question if he's healthy he can get back to that elite level. But he needs his body to be at a level commensurate with his heart."

His stance on the two new audio formats is (weve heard this before, havent we?) that they are not about better sound but about convenience or copyright protection.

Just a few of the interesting discussions involve the overly-high levels on many CDs, the musicians perspective on recordings, the worsening problem of broadcast audio/video sync, and ADC Distortion. There is a good diagram on p. 15 of how true and complete bass management should be set up - allowing for all the possibilities of no sub, one sub, two subs, a separate LFE sub, and no LFE signal at all, and switching between some of these options depending on the source. (I would just like to add an option to feed any one channel of the six to any one of the speakers - that would accommodate the alternatives to THX 5.1.)

- England in India 2012-13
Bell: I was trying too hard
Ian Bell has admitted trying "a bit too hard" to prove himself in India after his heavily-criticised first-ball dismissal in the opening Test in Ahmedabad but insists he will not stop trying to attack spin bowlers in the future.
Bell lofted his first ball from Pragyan Ojha, the left-arm spinner, straight to Sachin Tendulkar at mid-off the delivery after Kevin Pietersen had been dismissed and it left England in tatters at 69 for 5 replying to India's 521 for 8 dec. He played more sensibly in the second innings, reaching 22 before being trapped lbw by Umesh Yadav, but his record in India now stands at an average of 18.36 from six Tests.
"Lately I have been trying a bit too hard to show everyone I can score in India," Bell said in his Independent newspaper column. "I need to relax and trust my defence and know that if I spend time at the crease it will happen. I still have a lot of confidence about playing in the subcontinent, I have scored runs against Bangladesh, Pakistan and Sri Lanka but India is the one place that I have not scored big and I know that is missing from my batting CV.
"Maybe from previous tours to the subcontinent I was thinking to myself that I wanted to be positive and not sit back and be passive. I know I have to get the balance right. It was a bit adventurous for a first ball but if you look back over my last 30 to 40 Tests, you'll see the amount of times that I have got off and running against spinners like that. I am not going to put the shot away but I will reassess when I use it next time."
Bell is missing the second Test, in Mumbai, having flown home to be with his newly born son, Joseph, after learning he was a father while sat at the airport. Knowing that the birth was imminent made for a tricky build-up to the series for him.
"The first month in India was a weird time, I had things in the back of my mind but I was just trying to concentrate on my cricket," he said. "I didn't feel like I was in the best form, I wasn't batting as well as I would've liked. I don't know if that was down to everything going on, sometimes it just happens like that."
Bell now faces the situation of watching Jonny Bairstow have a chance in the No. 5 position as he spends a few days on nappy-changing duty before returning to India for the third Test in Kolkata. However, despite handing over his England place he does not have any regrets about the trip home.
"On the cricketing side it's a difficult decision to give someone an opportunity to take your place but I wanted to be here for my family and it is the best thing I have ever done and that will never change."

Tsukuyomi requires eye contact to be performed, trapping the target within an illusion completely under the user's control. Itachi's prowess with the technique has allowed him to alter the perception of time with ease within the genjutsu to make a few seconds seem like many days as a means to torture the target. This results in the victim suffering psychological trauma that incapacitates them for a considerable period of time. After Itachi used it on Kakashi in Part I, Kisame was surprised that Kakashi's mind was still intact. Only Tsunade has been shown capable of curing this psychological damage.[3]
In the anime during Part I, Itachi's use of Tsukuyomi typically featured a red moon casting a red light throughout the illusion with a cloudy atmosphere, giving the background a blood-red appearance while the victim within the illusion is in depicted in an inverted grey scale.
Such a powerful technique is not without its disadvantages however. Due to the complexity of the illusion and the quickness with which it is executed, an enormous amount of chakra is necessary and an added amount of stress is placed on the left eye, leaving Itachi's vision more blurred. Before using it on Kakashi in Part I, Itachi stated that Tsukuyomi can only be broken by a Sharingan user that shares the same blood as him; as demonstrated when Sasuke overcame Itachi's Tsukuyomi in their battle.[4] Sasuke can also perform Tsukuyomi with his right eye, though his illusion is considered inferior to Itachi's Tsukuyomi since it does not alter the opponent's perception of time indicating he has yet to master it.[5]
The Eye of the Moon Plan involves becoming the Ten-Tails' jinchūriki and using its power to reflect their Mangekyō Sharingan on the moon, which allows them to cast an "Infinite Tsukuyomi" (無限月読, Mugen Tsukuyomi; ; ; ) throughout the entire world, effectively letting them conquer it.
Influence Edit
Pulling from the ancient Japanese myth of Amaterasu, Tsukuyomi, and Susanoo, where when Izanagi washed his face after escaping the underworld his right eye became Tsukuyomi, the Moon god.
Trivia Edit
- In Naruto: Ultimate Ninja Storm, Itachi uses Tsukuyomi in a different manner. He has the red moon crush the opponent while the image of the moon warps into a copy of his Mangekyō Sharingan eye.
- In Naruto 6: Road to Ninja, Tobi casts a trial version of the Infinite Tsukuyomi, the "Limited Tsukuyomi" (限定月読, Gentei Tsukuyomi; ; ; ), on Naruto and Sakura, which provides the alternate reality setting of the movie.

Bringing the kingdom of heaven to Richmond, Virginia
- See latest KOH2VA Stories
Senior Pastor Dr. Jim Somerville explains:
Since my arrival in Richmond I have been pointing out Jesus' emphasis on the kingdom of God, mentioned some 120 times in the Gospels. In the Lord's Prayer he teaches his disciples to pray that God's kingdom would come, and God's will would be done, on earth as it is in heaven. It is my conviction that Jesus wanted his disciples not only to pray for that, but to work for that. I have said repeatedly that I believe—as children of the Heavenly Father and with the help of the Holy Spirit—we are called to "labor alongside the Lord Jesus in the joyful work of bringing heaven to earth."
How does that mission align with the Great Commission, the idea that we are sent to make disciples of every nation? Perfectly. But let's be clear: a disciple is not merely a convert. A more helpful translation of the word disciple might be "apprentice." In the same way an apprentice learns a trade from a master craftsman, the disciples learned a trade from Jesus. What was it? Bringing heaven to earth. And this is how he did it: wherever Jesus went he would show and tell people what the world would be like if God were completely in charge. And so sick people were healed, hungry people were fed, the eyes of the blind were open, the poor had good news preached to them.
In Luke 10 Jesus sent his disciples out to say and do the same things they had heard him saying and seen him doing. When they came back, they came back with joy, which suggests that doing the Lord's work doesn't have to be burdensome; in fact we may discover that it's what we were born for. In a similar story in Matthew 10 Jesus calls his disciples ("apprentices"), gives them authority over unclean spirits and over every disease and every sickness, and then sends them out on mission. From that point on they are called apostles ("sent ones"). When, at the end of Matthew's Gospel, he tells his followers to go and make disciples of every nation he sends them, as apostles, to make apprentices who will learn the work of the Kingdom so that they, too, may be sent.
I look at it this way: apprentices are meant to become apostles. We who are learning the work of the Kingdom are ultimately meant to go out and do it (or to stay in and do it—there is lots of "kingdom-bringing" that goes inside the walls of the church building and not just out there in the world), and to call others to join us in that work, because this job is too big for any one person or any one church to do alone. It's going to take all of us working together—joyfully laboring alongside the Lord Jesus with the help of the Holy Spirit—to bring heaven to earth. At Richmond's First Baptist Church I believe that our first responsibility is to this place where God has put us—Richmond, Virginia. That doesn't mean we can't bring heaven to earth in other places; it only means we ought to focus our efforts here. In the same way a heavy stone can make a big splash, and the ripples can travel outward to every part of the pond, I believe we are called to make a big splash in Richmond, with the ripples traveling outward to every part of the world.
In the end, according to the Gospels, Jesus was killed by those who were jealous of his power and popularity, but God vindicated his life by raising him from the dead and promising that same gift to all who believed in him. In a very real sense, his life, death, and resurrection made possible our "friendship" with God, and the abundant life that flows out of it. Before he ascended, Jesus commissioned his disciples to carry on his mission until his return, when God's kingdom will come finally and forever.

Wishing you an amazing week!
The weather got so much better these past few days and everything seems so beautiful. Sunny weather makes me so happy and it motivates me to actually do things. I enjoy simple walks, I feel happier as a person and I have so many ideas for the blog ! It's unbelievable how a simple change in weather can change someone's mood into such an extent. Hope you are having an amazing start of the month as well and for all those blogger friends that have so many things to do in college/work good luck:)
I got this dress for my birthday from Missguided and I've already shown it on this blog (here), but I wanted to dress it down a little and make it more suitable for day occasions. As the dress has more dark neutral colours I decided to add colour by pairing it with my bright blue sweater. In my previous post (All that Blue!) I've mentioned that I love blue but I don't own many blue clothing pieces and then I found this in Primark for just £5!! I just had to have it:) I wore my hair in an updo as I wanted the attention to be on the bright sweater and floral dress, rather than my hair!
I am wearing:
Sweater - Primark
Dress - Missguided
Boots - New Look
Bag - Primark
Watch - D&G
Bracelet - Souvenir
Rings - Warren James & Primark
