Tucker Buzzell '19 Earns Campbell Conference Class C South Player of the Year
Tucker Buzzell '19 has been named the 2018 Campbell Conference Player of the Year. The award was presented at the league banquet on Sunday, November 18. Also, FA's head coach David Turner and assistant coach David Jones were named the Campbell Conference Head Coach and Assistant Coach of the Year, respectively.
This prestigious award is voted on by the Class C Campbell Conference football coaches. "It's a great honor for Tucker," says FA head coach David Turner. "He played at a high level this season and throughout his Academy football career. He's earned this award through hard work."
Also at the awards banquet, seniors Oscar Saunders, Reece Kneissler, and Calvin Southwick were recognized as members Campbell Conference 1st Team All-Stars.
Buzzell's play and the play of Saunders, Kneissler, and Southwick helped lead the team to a winning 10-2 record, earning the Raiders the Class C South Championship and a spot for the Class C State Championship—something the team had not accomplished since 1965.
Despite the tough loss against Nokomis in the state championship game at Fitzpatrick Stadium in Portland, coach Turner is proud of his team's accomplishments. "We played hard but just came up 1 point short," says Turner. "These guys played their hearts out. Though it really hurts now, someday they will look back and realize how much they accomplished."
"We as coaches are recognized when our teams win a lot of games," concludes Turner. "And when your team wins a lot of games, it means you have good players. We won a lot of games and have really good players; these coaches awards are simply a result of the team's success."

STUDENT PROFILE: Silvia Sanchez-Serra '19
Where did you grow up and why you decide to attend Fryeburg Academy?
I grew up in a small fishing town 30 minutes away from Barcelona. It's a small community, yet I am close to a really big city which I think is a really great way to grow up.

STUDENT PROFILE: Jiawen "Jack" Liu '19
Q. Where did you grow up and why you decide to attend Fryeburg Academy?
I grew up in Beijing China. It is the capital of China and a very crowded city. As you can imagine, I grew up in a city setting and both my parents and I wanted me to go to a place that is quiet enough for studying. There are too many distractions in big cities. I applied to Fryeburg Academy and went on an amazing tour, so I chose FA. The tour guide was really nice and helpful, and I was amazed by all the musical and athletic awards that the Academy had won. Before I came here, I thought Fryeburg was just a quiet town and that the school would have a really small campus and not many facilities. But after I had a tour of the school, I saw Fryeburg Academy had many beautiful facilities like the PAC (Performing Arts Center) which is amazing and we have a vast library that other schools probably don't have. It's a beautiful campus.

Q: Tell us a little bit about yourself: where you grew up and why you decided to attend FA?
I came to FA as a sophomore, and I am now a senior. This is my third year at the Academy, and I feel like the time has passed really fast. I am from Taiwan, and I moved to China when I was in the first grade. I lived there with my family for nine years. I went to international schools my whole life, which is why I have good English skills. It was a hard adjustment to make between living in Taiwan and living in China, especially as I switched schools several times because my mom wanted to make sure I had the very best opportunities.
Despite the difficulty in attending several different schools in China and Taiwan, the transitions helped me to become more adaptable to change.

DARTMOUTH, Mass. -- The Brandeis University men's cross country team had a pair of top-25 performances from junior Jarret Harrigan (Ipswich, Mass./St. Johns Prep) and rookie Quinton Hoey (Watertown, Mass./Watertown) as they finished in sixth place out of 28 teams at the 2013 UMass Dartmouth Corsair Invitational on Sept. 21.
Harrigan and Hoey were neck-and-neck, finishing less than a second apart in 21st and 22nd place, respectively, with times of 26:21.87 and 26:22.13. It was the top collegiate cross country performance for both runners in an 8K race. Harrigan had finished a 5K race in second place in the Judges' opening race of the season.
Junior Michael Rosenbach (Tampa, Fla./Berkeley Prep) was the team's third runner with a time of 26:59.62, good for 33rd place overall. Rookie Matt Doran (Hopedale, Mass./Hopedale) wasn't far behind Rosenback in 41st place with a time of 27:16.66. Classmate Daniel Leon (New York, N.Y. / Bronx H.S. of Science) rounded out the Judges' scorers in 108th place and time of 29:02.62.
Despite competing without senior Ed Colvin (Roslindale, Mass./Catholic Memorial School), the Judges finished in sixth place, and third among Division III schools with 213 points. They were just ahead of the host UMass Dartmouth, who had 233, but came in 63 points behind Division II Assumption College in fifth.
The Judges return to action at Keene State College on Oct. 5.

The problem of mismatched bumpers on cars and SUVs could be solved with some simple modifications, saving consumers thousands of dollars on repairs after low-speed collisions, Institute tests show.
In 2010, a series of low-speed tests involving SUVs and cars highlighted the expensive damage that results when bumpers don't line up (see "Bumper mismatch contributes to pricey damage," Dec. 2, 2010). Seven pairs of cars and SUVs from the same manufacturers were crashed into each other. Damage to both vehicles in each of the 10 mph collisions ranged from about $3,000 to nearly $10,000.
Now the Institute has teamed up with Tech-Cor, Allstate's auto-repair research center, to show how lowering SUV bumpers a few inches can reduce crash damage. Engineers picked 2 of the previously tested SUVs and modified their bumpers. The crashes were then repeated, resulting in big reductions in repair costs for both cars. In the case of a Ford Focus that was crashed into the back of a Ford Escape, the damage plummeted 84 percent to less than $1,000 after the Escape's rear bumper was lowered.
Bumpers generally consist of a reinforcement bar under a plastic cover. When it comes to limiting crash damage, it's what's hidden under the plastic that counts, and sometimes there isn't much. A federal standard requires cars to have bumpers that provide protection over a zone 16 to 20 inches off the ground. There are no such requirements for SUVs, pickups, or minivans. As a result, some of them have flimsy bumpers, and many others have bumpers much higher off the ground than those of cars.
The result is high repair costs for even minor crashes. When bumpers work as intended, they absorb most of the energy in a low-speed crash. When they don't line up, the vehicle body bears the brunt of the crash energy. Damage to headlights, grilles, radiators, and other parts adds up to big bills.
In the 2010 tests, the crash of the Focus into the Escape resulted in one of the highest damage totals. The lower edge of the Escape's rear bumper is 23 inches off the ground — the highest of all the SUVs tested — and the Focus' front bumper missed it by more than an inch. The result was that the Focus went under the Escape and ended up needing a new hood, headlights, air-conditioning condenser, and other parts for a total of $5,203. The Escape wasn't unscathed, either, with $2,208 worth of damage.
Crash damage before modification
SUV/car test damage with original equipment and lowered SUV bumpers
Improving the placement of the Escape's rear bumper was straightforward. Tech-Cor engineers added bumper brackets from another SUV to the existing rear frame, then attached the bumper bar, bringing it down 3½ inches from its original location. When the vehicles were crashed again, the only damage to the Focus was to the bumper cover and grille — an $853 repair job. The damage to the Escape fell slightly as well, to $2,070.
The other SUV selected for modification was the Jeep Patriot, which had inflicted $3,095 worth of damage on the Dodge Caliber when it crashed into the Caliber's rear. Since the 2 vehicles share a platform, engineers were able to simply bolt the front bumper of a Caliber onto the Patriot. This lowered the SUV's bumper nearly 3 inches. The Patriot's new front bumper and the Caliber's rear bumper overlapped more than 3½ inches, compared with less than an inch of overlap for the original equipment.
Damage to the Caliber fell 40 percent to $1,847, and the change shaved $34 off the Patriot's $1,415 repair bill.
For both SUVs, the lower bumpers fit under the original covers, so the modified vehicles didn't look any different. Nor was there any change in approach or departure angles that could affect a vehicle's usefulness off-road and at loading ramps.
"This experiment shows just how easy it would be to design SUVs with effective bumpers," says Joe Nolan, the Institute's chief administrative officer. "By making simple tweaks, manufacturers could help consumers save on repairs and insurance premiums without compromising on styling or function."

Universal Pictures, DreamWorks and Imagine Entertainment, along with Governor Bill Richardson, have announced that the action thriller Cowboys & Aliens will shoot in New Mexico. The film is scheduled to shoot mid-June through mid-August and is expected to employ approximately 150 cast and crew from New Mexico.
The film is based on the graphic novel of the same name from Platinum Studios. Steven Spielberg, Jon Favreau, Bobby Cohen and Denis L. Stewart will serve as the executive producers with Jon Favreau directing. The film will star Daniel Craig and Harrison Ford.
"New Mexico is the perfect location for this major production of a classic American Wild West tale with a high-tech science-fiction twist," said Governor Richardson. "Film production continues to pump money into New Mexico's economy and create jobs for New Mexicans, and it is one of the consistent bright spots in these challenging economic times."
Described as a cross between a classic Western with an alien-invasion movie, Cowboys & Aliens promises to take audiences into the Old West, where a lone cowboy leads an uprising against a terror from beyond our world. The film hits theaters on July 29, 2011.
The production team is joined by an arsenal of top moviemakers—Steven Spielberg, Ron Howard, Brian Grazer, Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci.
Cowboys & Aliens is produced by Grazer, Howard, Kurtzman, Orci and Scott Mitchell Rosenberg, and it is written by Kurtzman & Orci & Damon Lindelof.
Just Updated:
Dreamworks has released the official plot synopsis for the next Jon Favreau film, starring Daniel Craig and Harrison Ford (that second name still makes me really happy to type):
1873. Arizona Territory. A stranger (Craig) with no memory of his past stumbles into the hard desert town of Absolution. The only hint to his history is a mysterious shackle that encircles one wrist. What he discovers is that the people of Absolution don't welcome strangers, and nobody makes a move on its streets unless ordered to do so by the iron-fisted Colonel Dolarhyde (Ford). It's a town that lives in fear.
But Absolution is about to experience fear it can scarcely comprehend as the desolate city is attacked by marauders from the sky. Screaming down with breathtaking velocity and blinding lights to abduct the helpless one by one, these monsters challenge everything the residents have ever known.
Now, the stranger they rejected is their only hope for salvation. As this gunslinger slowly starts to remember who he is and where he's been, he realizes he holds a secret that could give the town a fighting chance against the alien force. With the help of the elusive traveler Ella (Olivia Wilde), he pulls together a posse comprised of former opponents—townsfolk, Dolarhyde and his boys, outlaws and Apache warriors—all in danger of annihilation. United against a common enemy, they will prepare for an epic showdown for survival.

New book by Isaias Gamboa explores the legacy of 'We Shall Overcome'
New book by Isaias Gamboa explores the legacy of 'We Shall Overcome'
From EurWeb
"We Shall Overcome" is one of the most meaningful songs of the entire African American experience and is almost synonymous with Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and the Civil Rights Movement.
The Library of Congress named it "the most powerful song of the 20th century." But who wrote it, who owns it, and whose pimping it? Those questions are answered in the new book "We Shall Overcome: Sacred Songs on the Devil's Tongue" by music industry vet turned author Isaias Gamboa.
It begins with the tale of humble Louise Shropshire, a sharecropper's daughter who would grow up to find herself in the inner circle of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Rev. Fred Shuttlesworth and Rev. Thomas A. Dorsey. Recently Gamboa spoke with EURweb's Lee Bailey about his book and how it came about.
"My friend Robert, who is the grandson of this woman who I'm writing about, approached me about 20 years ago and said 'My grandmomma wrote 'We Shall Overcome'," he explained.
"One part of my mind thought it was interesting while the other part was just like 'moving on.' I didn't really take it that seriously. Seventeen years later we talked about it again and he didn't change a lick of the story."
Gamboa is a Grammy award winning music industry vet with 30 years under his belt. One could imagine he's seen and heard it all before, but this one intrigued even him upon hearing it for the second time.
"I told him that I couldn't just go off the story that he was telling me," Gamboa told EURweb. "When his grandmother died he went down to her storage. He came back, pulled out a suitcase with all this sheet music in it and it was some extraordinary old stuff that we found. Some stuff from Reverend Thomas Dorsey, 'Take My Hand' … just some really amazing stuff. There's a song called 'If My Jesus Will.' It goes, 'I'll overcome, I'll overcome, I'll overcome someday. If my Jesus wills, I do believe, I will overcome someday."
"So, I was like wow! But there was no copyright information. I didn't see any copyright stamps. He said she told him that she copyrighted it. I searched, and searched, and searched…6 months later I found this obscure listing on the Internet that said something about Louise Shropshire and 'His Precious Blood' and it had a copyright date on it. So, I sent it to the Library of Congress and they sent me a collection of songs and the last song in this selection was this song, and it had a copyright date attached to it. That copyright was 1954. 'We Shall Overcome' was copyrighted in 1960. That was a big deal for me because we now see which came first. But how do I prove it? So, I did some more research."
If the late Ms. Shropshire's 1954 version was copyrighted prior to 1960 "We Shall Overcome" version then it's a cut and dry circumstance, righ? Not hardly. "We Shall Overcome" is currently owned, and being is being milked, by a high profile folk singer and he and his allies are certainly not just going to give it up without a fight.
"The people that own the song now are a guy named Pete Seeger, a well known folk musician, and five other people that you may or may not have heard of," Isaias told EURweb. "They claim that they derived their version from a Negro spiritual of unknown origins. We know that's not true, but I had to prove it. I told Robert that we needed some more information."
Gamboa tells us that his initial research attempts were to undercover the connection between "If My Jesus Will" and "We Shall Overcome," but soon found that the late Louise Shropshire counted some of the movement's elite among her close friends.
"He went back to the storage and we found pictures of his grandmother with Dr. King, Reverend Fred Shuttlesworth and Thomas Dorsey. He said 'Grandmomma was friends with Dr. King', and I'm like 'Say what?' He says 'Yeah, he used to come over to the house.' His grandmother was from Cincinnati and her husband was a (well-known) bail bondsman, and they were a very prominent baptist family. She had met Dr. King through Fred Shuttlesworth. Whenever he was in town, Dr King would stay at their home because it was well suited to deal with security issues. She had a house on the hill, they could block off the whole street, and it was secure. She tended to him and his family and their families became friends."
It was during one of those gatherings that history was made, positive and negative history.
"One time she was with Dr. King and they were playing church songs after dinner. She decided to play her song, and he asked if it could be used for the movement, and he asked could if he could change it to 'We Shall Overcome' for the movement. He didn't refer to making this his own song, he just wanted to know if he could use that theme in some of his rhetoric. From that point on he allegedly started using that phrase."
It is an incredible moment when a researcher stumbles across a diamond mine of information, but it appeared as if Gamboa had struck the mother lode.
"I thought that this was extraordinary because people feel like they know everything there is to know about Dr. King. To add on history is a big step," he explained. "You've got to know more than Google stuff. So, my brother said I might as well write up a treatment and maybe someone would bite on it and through writing the treatment I was drawn in deeper. That song was a sacred hymn. Those who plagiarized it sought to secularize the song in addition to making it popular. To me, being a Christian, I realized there was a spiritual battle there. It made a lot of money for them, but still…who does that? Who takes a hymn and says 'Let's take the God out of it'?"
"The first song says 'If my Jesus will, I do believe' and with the second song they're saying 'Deep in my heart'," Isaias continued. "I thought 'Wow, if I can prove this then I can bring the Jesus back into the dialogue. This song started with Jesus and whatever it did, it did. That's powerful."
The modern stereotype of a music industry exec is one who is narcissistic beyond reproach. They generally don't just donate their time to others without dollar signs being involved. Here, Gamboa tells Lee Bailey why he was moved to act in this circumstance.
"Because I was in the music business I bought in and wanted to show everyone that she was treated unfairly," he explained. "But when the spiritual theme came in I felt there was something deeper taking root. The reason I decided to call it 'Sacred Song on the Devil's Tongue' is one night it just came to me. They took a song that was intended to help blacks get through a difficult period through the 40s, 50s and 60s, when there was so much racism. That's what inspired the song but the Caucasian people who made that adaptation, they weren't thinking of that. They're coming from a different places and didn't have the same struggles. In that spiritual struggle she was trying to say 'put GOD first' and they're saying 'No, it's not about putting GOD first, it's what you want to happen'.
The entire historic narrative of Louise Shropshire, "We Shall Overcome" and the 'devils' who usurped a spiritual hymn under false pretenses can be found in "We Shall Overcome: Sacred Songs on the Devil's Tongue." There's so much more to the story. So much so that we're going to have to cut this one short and bring you part 2 later this week.

We construct and renovate commercial, residential and government spaces to make them healthy for the environment and their occupants. We are passionate about minimizing the negative environmental impacts of buildings and homes, and want to set ourselves apart from the other builders out there who are just going 'Green' to make a buck. Our slogan: Building and Renovating with a Green Conscience.
For winter cash flow, we are looking to build a holiday/seasonal business of leaf removal, winterizing lawns & homes, holiday lights and decorations, and snow removal.
This door hanger will go to homeowner's needing the services described above. Ideally, if a homeowner calls us for a holiday service, we will build a rapport with them to be their 'builder for life.' We will target homes in the Washington, DC & Baltimore metropolitan areas.
design MUST fit standard 3 1/2 x 8 1/2 door hanger size, with round opening at top
Color using attached logo. To get an idea of the style we like, please view our past contest winners in our portfolio
Include our phone number (301.898.2860) & our website: http://www.gardnerbuildinggroup.com
Include: "Our Seasonal Services will Light Up Your Holidays!" or some other catchy phrase you can think of
Must have our menu of services including, but not limited to:
-Fall Yard & Leaf Clean-up
-House Winterization
-Exterior/Interior Holiday Illumination & Decoration
-Snow Removal
Must Include: MHIC#100872 and WV047077 (can be in smaller font, but MUST be somewhere on this piece)
While the services we are offering for the holidays aren't specifically 'green,' we still want to portray green aspects (i.e., please note on the door hanger somewhere that 'This door hanger is made from recycled post consumer content')
I want a creative, yet clean & professional design (with a fun holiday feel), with the 'picture' portion of our logo being the largest image on either side, as this is what we're using for brand identity. To convey the services quickly, I would also like to see these three components: an autumn leaf (even if it's just an outlined shadow in the background) or a pumpkin, strand(s) of Christmas lights, and perhaps a snowman; however, we are open to other ideas.
email me directly with questions or for more detail

"Marching into Autumn" ©2018 Niki Gulley
10" x 20" textured oil on canvas
10" x 20" textured oil on canvas
I painted this colorful autumn scene near my home when the fall foliage was first starting to appear. I loved the vibrant reds, oranges and yellows of the cypress contrasted against the multitude of greens surrounding it. The patterns of the shadows underneath the trees created a sort of rhythm and I played up the angles of the trees and strokes to add to that feeling of a driving beat. I hope you, too, can feel the energy and joy of being surrounded by nature as autumn approaches.If interested in more information on pricing and purchasing this palette knife fall scene, please e-mail Niki Gulley.

You're seeking a professional degree. Financial aid can help you fulfill your dreams!
Are you a Maryland resident?
Complete your FAFSA before March 1 each year for consideration of state financial aid from the Maryland Higher Education Commission (MHEC). MHEC offers various scholarships, most of which require you to file your FAFSA before March 1.
If you didn't file your FAFSA by March 1, don't worry! You can still file your FAFSA for federal aid.
As a law student, the Free Application for Federal Student Aid, or FAFSA, continues to be your source for financial aid.
The FAFSA becomes available October 1st each year. You should plan on completing it as soon you plan to attend law school. You must file the FAFSA each year you want to use financial aid.
When completing the FAFSA, be sure to include UB's school code, 002102. UB will determine which financial aid programs you are eligible for based on the results of your FAFSA.
After you have been admitted to the School of Law and we have received your FAFSA, we will award you with financial aid. We will notify you at your University of Baltimore email address (typically email@example.com). It's important to begin checking this email account frequently!
Law students are also eligible to apply for the credit-based Graduate PLUS Loan. For additional information on the application process for this loan and other opportunities for scholarships, visit the types of aid webpage or the Office of Financial Aid.
Frequently Asked Questions
What happens after I receive my award notice?
The email you receive will direct you to your MyUB Portal to complete the remaining financial aid steps. You will want to complete the "4 Steps to Financial Aid" found in the left-hand column. Specifically, you will want to complete step 2. If you are borrowing a loan for the first time at UB, step 3 will also need to be completed.
If you do not have your login information for MyUB, please click here.
How much financial aid should I accept?
This is up to you! A bill, or charge, will be created on your account after you've registered for classes. You may want to check the tuition and fees webpage to determine how much you will be charged. Consider accepting enough financial aid to cover the cost of your educational expenses. We recommend only borrowing what you need. Remember, you are not required to accept everything which is offered to you!
What happens if I have too much or not enough financial aid?
If you have more financial aid on your account than your charges total, you will be issued a refund. Refunds are sent from the Office of the Comptroller in Annapolis. It is important that you keep your address up to date at all times. You can expect to receive your refund within 10 business days of seeing "Refund Financial Aid Annapolis" on your student account.
There are two options for students who do not have enough financial aid to cover their tuition and fee charges. The first option is to enroll in the payment plan offered though Sallie Mae. The second option is to visit the Office of Financial Aid to learn about other financial aid opportunities.
For additional information about refunds or payment plans, visit the Office of the Bursar's website.
Do I have to be full-time to receive financial aid?
Generally, law students only need to be enrolled half-time (6 credits or more) to receive federal aid. However, some scholarships or academic programs may require you to enroll full-time (9 credits or more). For requirements of specific programs, see types of aid or the Office of Financial Aid.

Perhaps this is why Matthew Broderick can't remember his lines. SJP is in Morocco shooting Sex & the City 2 and Dandy, who supposedly needs a lot of "me" time, has to do a little extra around the house, isn't able to hang with his boys as much as he wants to. Robert Pattinson.
Here are SJP and Cynthia Nixon in Morocco today on location for Sex 2. Great. First Mexico, now Morocco…
That was one of the major, among many, flaws of the first film. Not enough of New York. Which is what made the tv show so great. New York all the time. And if the girls can't find anything else to do in New York, what does that say about the girls?

Cars are big-ticket items, and there are many ways for fraudsters to bilk unsuspecting victims. The rise of Internet commerce has vastly expanded the ways to separate a mark from his money, and has effectively made it a global business.
Consumer complaints rose 25 percent in 2010 and a complaint is filed every 90 minutes, according to a Consumer Reports article citing FBI stats. Regarding auto-related complaints, every hour a car buyer loses more than $1,000.
The online car sales company Cars.com employs a fraud team to help weed out the most fraudulent ads on its website.
"The number one piece of advice we can give for buyers and sellers is to listen to that inner voice that says, 'This is too good to be true,'" advises the site's spokesperson, Ron Hall, "because we've found that it always, always is."
While it may seem like a no-brainer, never purchase a car or send money for a vehicle without seeing it first. "You'd be surprised at how many people do that," he says.
The Cars.com fraud team put together this list of the most common scams in auto sales.
Keep in mind the schemes and tactics that follow are not mutually exclusive — some scammers take pages from numerous playbooks. Click on ahead to see them all.

NJ Plastic Surgeon Says the Smartphone Squint May Cause Premature Wrinkles in Young Women
Wrinkles may be a sign of approaching middle age but younger women now have a reason to worry — the smartphone squint. Many of them are developing premature wrinkles from staring at their smartphones, says Dr. Brian Glatt, a New Jersey board-certified plastic surgeon. According to Dr. Glatt, "The trend for 'BlackBerry Botox' is highly increasing especially among women who are addicted to gazing on their BlackBerries or iPhones all day. Peering at a small screen causes facial strain, around and between the brows which may cause premature wrinkles on the face."
Smartphone-related wrinkles are the latest condition that doctors attribute to overuse of technology. Others include 'BlackBerry thumb' – a form of repetitive strain injury caused by excessive texting.
Tips for Smartphone users to help prevent against the need for Blackberry Botox
NJ Plastic Surgeon Says the Smartphone Squint May Cause Premature Wrinkles in Young Women
1. Take a break – It's important to put down or at least glance up from your Smartphone regularly so that your eyes can rest. Though squinting is necessary when using a Smartphone, taking time to relax your eyes can make a significant difference in reducing this new type of strain on your facial muscles.
2. Turn the light down low – too much light and contrast can cause you to narrow the eyes to take in the brightness. A no-no for fresh-looking eye contours. Combat the dreaded 'crow's feet' effect by dimming the screen in your 'settings' options – and see how low you can go on the light emission. The less, the better. (as a bonus, this will also help preserve your phone's battery life!)
3. Enlarge the text – If you find yourself struggling to read the small text on your Smartphone and start holding it so close you wrinkle your nose so much it hurts, just enlarge the text by simply going to your settings and altering the text size. Also, the zoom function can be a fantastic thing – use it to focus in on images on your device so you can see much more clearly and avoid pulling the inner eye.
4. Looking after your eyes – If you can bear it, spend less time glued to your iPhone or Blackberry. And during this timeout, take some deep breaths to relax the face into a more natural expression, and gently massage the area around the eyes – a simple thing that can make a big difference to preventing those lines that starts subtly but can get deeper and more pronounced. Not only will your face be serene looking, you will feel more serene – and in a much better state to deal with any inbox horrors.
5. Don't forget to smile! If you are experiencing stress from being constantly attached to your Smartphone, just think about the potentially negative effect this is having on your youthful appearance. Then, take time to do something that relieves the tension, like playing on a fun app, like TomCat or Angry Birds; this will help relax your face, soften your expression and prevent long term frown lines.

Scripture: Exodus 15:22 – 17:7 or pages 124 – 129 in the Golden Children's Bible
Target Age Group: 1st through 6th grade
Welcome the children to the classroom and chat with them about their week as they gather around the table.
Pray and ask God to teach the children not just head knowledge, but also heart knowledge.
Bible Lesson:
Have the children open their Bibles to Matthew 2 or pages 354 – 355 in The Golden Children's Bible.
(Read the story to the children because at this age some of the children do not read smoothly, which hinders comprehension for the whole class.)
- What was the first thing that the Israelites grumbled to Moses about? There was no water. The water they found was bitter and they couldn't drink it.
- What did God have Moses do? He threw a piece of wood into the water and it became fit to drink.
- What instructions did the Lord give to them? "If you listen carefully to the Lord your God and do what is right in his eyes, if you pay attention to his commands and keep all his decrees, I will not bring on you any of the diseases I brought on the Egyptians, for I am the Lord, who heals you."
- What did they find at Elim? 12 springs and 70 palm trees.
- What was the next things that the people complained about? There was no food.
- What did the Lord say that He would do? "I will rain down bread from heaven for you."
- Moses and Aaron said that the people were upset with who? God – not them.
- What happened that evening? quail came and covered the camp.
- What happened in the morning? There was manna on the ground. (Manna sounds like the Hebrew for What is it?)
- How much manna were they to gather? An omer for each person (About 3 pounds)
- What happened to the manna if they saved some for the morning? it was full of maggots and began to smell
- What day could they save twice as much as they needed? The day before the Sabbath
- Why? So that they wouldn't work on the Sabbath
- What happened if they didn't collect twice as much on the 6th day? They had nothing to eat on the Sabbath.
- Describe the manna. It was white like coriander seed and tasted like wafers made with honey.
- What did God tell Moses to do with one omer of manna? 'Take an omer of manna and keep it for the generations to come, so they can see the bread I gave you to eat in the wilderness when I brought you out of Egypt.'
- Why do you think that it was important for them to save the manna? So that they would always remember how God provided for them.
- How might it help them to remember what God had done for them in the past? When something bad happens to them, they could trust that God was in control and that He would take care of them again.
- How long did the people eat manna? 40 years, until they reached Canaan
- What was the next thing they complained about? Again there was no water.
- What did the Lord have Moses do? "Strike the rock, and water will come out of it for the people to drink."
- What name did Moses give to this place? Massah and Meribah which means "testing" and "quarreling".
- What kinds of things do you complain about? broccoli, homework, chores, not getting your way, etc.
- How do you think God would rather you do than complain? be thankful, pray and ask God for help, etc.
- Deut 8:3 says, "He humbled you, causing you to hunger and then feeding you with manna, which neither you nor your fathers had known, to teach you that man does not live on bread alone but on every word that comes from the mouth of the LORD." What do you think this verse means? We need more than physical food every day; we need spiritual food every day, too.
- Let's pray and thank the Lord for giving us our daily bread and for daily spiritual bread...
During the remaining class time do activities that help to reinforce what the children have learned. Here are some suggestions…
Memorize the verse.
Exodus 16:12 'At twilight you will eat meat, and in the morning you will be filled with bread. Then you will know that I am the Lord your God.'
Share the children's sermon "Dinner on the Ground" or "What Is It?" from Sermons4kids.
Have the children use colors or pastels to draw their own vision of the story on a sketch pad page. Or have them color a color page related to the story. Color page #1 Color page #2 Color page #3 Here is a color book from Bible for Children An excellent color page book is "Through-the-Bible Coloring Pages For Ages 4-8" by Janet Skiles. The pages are reproducible.
Share one of these videos: Video #1 Video #2 Video #3 Video #4
Have the children play this great game by Ellen Patterson at the Sunday School Network
Have the children fill in these worksheets from Calvary Chapel or a crossword puzzle from Sermons4kids.
Sing: "Grumble" by Mary Rice Hopkins from the Dancing in the Desert album.
Share this lesson from Ministry to Children using the book, "Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs" as an object lesson.
For a craft, click on the picture above to enlarge it. Print it out and make a copy for each child in the class. Give them each some couscous to paste to the picture as manna on the ground and in the bowls. Have the Bible verse on a slip of paper for each child to paste to the top of their picture. Older kids can write the verse themselves.
Here are some craft ideas at e-how.
Try one of these activities from Sermons4kids.
For older kids share this lesson from Calvary Kids.
Evaluate what the children have learned. While they are coloring or crafting ask each one what they learned today.
Send each child's parent an e-mail (or a hard copy) of the Parents' Page.

My name is Jim,and I am a new member to this site,it seems very honest and helpfull and I will now relate a diving accident that happened to me in August in Cocos Island 350 miles off Costa Rica.
I am a inspiration diver for the past 3 years ,logged over 170 hours shallow and trimix levels mainly shooting Tv shows and documentaries from Canada.In all the dives I have never had one problem with my unit,and my 4 dive buddies all have the classic unit with 3 new evolutions added this last 7 months to the pile,all with no problems.My buddy and I Ralph Hoskins from Canada ventured on board the Okeanous Aggressor for my third and Ralph,s first trip to Cocos.
Both of us on classics,we had checked them prior to the trip and replaced all cells and came with fresh batteries.
On the 14 th dive of the week,we dived the Alcion site,incredibly high current,the morning dive went without a hitch,So we decided a 1100am dive at the same spot.
Ralph and I were at the back of the 10 metre zodia,when we rounded the open ocean corner into vicous wave action,the pilot gunned the boat and I went flying rebreather and all smashing hard onto the fiberglass rib floor,jarring the classic badly.I checked it out and once anchored headed into the current down the line.A diver in front of me lost his tank out of a scubapro bc suicide snap system and I was the only one close to grab him , and the tank and try put it all back together in a 5 knot current hanging onto the rope, the line as well,We were only 25 ft. down,I completed the repair and off he went,Ralph had stopped and turned about watching us and waited for me.I started handover hand pulling down the line,Ralph said I pulled slower and slower and passed out,rolled over, out came the loop and I started my descent.Thankgod Ralph was right on me at 68 ft my computer locked out and 6 minutes into the dive,Ralph tried to get a response from me,I was dead in the water eyes closed and non responsive,he could not put my bailout reg in my mouth,I was vsa at this time.He hauled me back to the rough surface and attempted to signal the zod pilot,for 10 minutes Ralph kept me afloat,he says I started breathing.
I woke up stripped to my wetsuit in the zod spiting up blood and wondering what was going on,did I fall down and knock myself out.
I had no feeling of any pain and did not remember the incident,or feel any symptoms or hear any alarm go off,neither did Ralph hear a alarm.
Back on the mother ship I peeled out of my suit washed off and layed upstairs on a lounge chair for the next 32 hours while I was fed pure O2 from the large bank on board.The diving Dr. arrived 50 miles out from shore at 400am in a fast boat, with the ambulance crew, who stabilized me and I spent a lovely 3 days in critical care in Costa Rica,missing my flight home.Ralph hung with me and stripped down my unit and boxed it up making certain checks on the unit first.
The fill was fresh and the O2 at 2000psi,the computers worked and showed cell 3 was off a little,the unit had of course flooded so it is hard to tell what went wrong,perhaps the massive smash off the zodiac deck had upset the works.When I returned the unit to Mike Fowler,Mike replaced a battery box,my unit had the old solid brass pins and it looked like one pin had seized up perhaps unseating the battery thus no alarm for low O2.
I was back diving the unit in mid September and ordered my Vision upgrade for January to arrive.
My wife wanted me to sell the unit and get out of CCR diving,I told her usually it is diver failure, that caused most problems and some of my CCR buddies felt the massive smash on the floor of the zod caused it to unseat a battery thus no alarm,anyway I am back at it and,being very fit and on pure O2 for the 32 hour 350 mile ride home kept me alive,
I would like to thanks Wayne Hasson of the Aggressor fleet and the owner for all there help,and the guest as well who lost a day or so of diving.Thanks to all..life is sweet..............
Ralph is getting a free trip to Truk Lagoon for saving my butt,thanks Ralph..
