Fender Bender Leads to Aggravated Assault Charges [VIDEO]
A Georgia husband went to great lengths to get justice for his wife, particularly her car. That distance was about two miles, but it was travelled hanging desperately to the hood of a woman's car. This situation turned quickly from a fender bender into a life or death situation.
Elton Kim and his wife were going about their normal everyday life working at their laundry mat in Roswell, Georgia when everything went wrong.
Kim witnessed a woman back into his wife's SUV and start to take off from the scene. Kim decided to take matters into his own hands. He ran outside to the scene and repeatedly asked the hit and run driver to stop her vehicle. When the woman would not he jumped on top of her car. She decided to take him for a dangerous joy ride.
So quickly, this fender bender would turn into a felony aggravated assault charge as the driver continued to drive on with Kim holding on to her hood.
A man driving past this crazy sight decided to take video footage capturing the entire insanity. In the video you can hear the man filming and Kim yelling back and forth about calling the cops. Kim did not get a chance to get off of the car until the woman had to stop at a red light. He continued to ask the woman to stop exclaiming that she had hit his wife's car. Once the light turned green, the woman took off.
The authorities in Roswell are still searching for this mad driver.
If she had just owned up to her small accident she would have just been facing a hike in her insurance rate. Now, this felony fender bender could land her a jail sentence.
Here is a local news station's footage of this odd and crazy event. You will not believe the sight of Kim casually riding on top of the offender's hood.

The single-player campaign is certainly the game's bread and butter, and though it is fairly underwhelming, most players are picking this game up to continue the saga of our three heroes. However, I would be remiss if I didn't mention the game's multiplayer mode, which has really come into its own. Brotherhood's deception-based multiplayer mode wasn't exactly that deep, but it was surprisingly addictive. In Revelations, the premise is nearly identical. You'll need to use NPCs, your environment, and your own skills to take out targets using earned and inherent character skills.
The big difference this time around is that there is a greater sense of purpose. Team-oriented missions, greater varieties in match types, and all-new abilities make the multiplayer much better; it's certainly worth your time. Even if you abstained from checking out the multiplayer last time, I would definitely give it a shot in Revelations.
However, that's about where the good news ends. Visually, Assassin's Creed: Revelations is a bit of a wreck. I don't know what went wrong with this entry in the series, but the graphics have seriously been downgraded since last time. Character models feature an unfortunate amount of jagged lines, pop-in is a constant problem, and even the camera suffers from some serious malfunction. Though the world of Constantinople comes to life rather vividly, many of the structures have repetitious design. However, to be fair, Italy has also had its fair share of repetitious structures as well. To top it off, Revelations has an unfortunate amount of visual glitches. Floating weapons, characters that spontaneously freeze, and disappearing body parts are all sadly common in Assassin's Creed: Revelations.
I really wanted to love this game. As a huge fan of the series, I was beyond hyped for the last entry featuring Ezio and the first to blend the three heroes' stories together. However, the game lacks a coherent story, visual polish, and meaningful new gameplay elements. Though running around and stabbing people is still fun, Revelations has lost some of the spark that made its predecessors feel so amazing. I hope the series can get itself back on track soon, because I know the Assassin's Creed series can do better than this. I'm just sad to see that Ezio's last story was not his finest hour, because he deserved a better exit than this.

The following assemblage of homes includes places where famous bands were formed, beloved songs or entire albums were written, the sites where musicians died and where one massive hit-maker of the 1950s and '60s was incorrectly thought to have met his end.
These storied abodes range in value from around $270,000 to $19 million. Some of them have owners who don't own them because of fandom, but a few were bought or saved by very dedicated fans.
From London to Los Angeles, from rock to pop to R&B to jazz, and from the 1960s to 2011, here are nine homes where music history was made.

SKOWHEGAN — An audio recording played in Robert Nelson's murder trial Thursday revealed that drugs and alcohol were part of a normal day for him, including the one when Everett Cameron was killed.
Nelson, in a recorded interview with police days after the murder, said the day that Cameron was killed was for the most part a normal day for him.
He said that he split wood in the morning, then went home and got ready for his daughter's birthday party that afternoon. He said that he met with Cameron about some money he owed him for an Oxycodone pill.
Nelson also admitted to having used drugs and alcohol that day and said that he had a substance abuse problem.
"I've always used alcohol as a therapy for stuff going on in my life and my relationship problems. I've used drugs like that, too. Unfortunately I've always been like that," he said in the recording played in Somerset County Superior Court.
He also told Maine State Police Detectives Jason Andrews and Jeffrey Love in the Nov. 4, 2009, interview that "I want to help out as much as I can."
Nelson, 41, has pleaded not guilty to murder in the death of Cameron, who was found in his pickup truck with a gunshot wound to the head on Oct. 31, 2009, on Town Farm Road in Anson.
Today is the fourth day of the trial.

Czech photographer Oldrich Skacha dies at 72
PRAGUE (AP) — Oldrich Skacha, a Czech photographer whose pictures captured late President Vaclav Havel and the dissident movement in the communist Czechoslovakia, has died.
Prague's Vaclav Havel Library announced Skacha's death Saturday without details. Czech public television says Skacha died Saturday from an unspecified long illness. He was 72.
After the 1968 Soviet-led invasion of Czechoslovakia, Skacha was banned by the hard-line communist regime and joined the dissidents around Havel at the early 1970s. Only he and his colleague, Bohdan Holomicek, systematically photographed the activities of the movement that significantly contributed to the collapse of communism.
Following the 1989 Velvet Revolution when Havel was elected the president, Skacha became his personal photographer. His photos were put on display at exhibitions in Vienna, Paris, New York City and other places around the globe.

The first of three final specials follows the Doctor to Mars, where he has to save the human race from a spreading infection, in Doctor Who: Waters of Mars (BBCA, 9 PM).
Modern-day renaissance man James Franco is hosting Saturday Night Live (NBC, 11:30 PM) this week. Muse is the musical guest, but I only know who they are because they had a song on the American Eagle Outfitters soundtrack when I worked there.
December 20, 2009
The preview for the season finale of Survivor (CBS, 8 PM) calls eternally-shirtless Russell the "most evil player ever." I would agree, due to him thinking that he's a king simply because someone dropped some grapes in his mouth.
I'm not sure why, but George Lopez is hosting the special Christmas in Washington (TNT, 8 PM), which features Rob Thomas, Neil Diamond, Mary J. Blige, and Usher.
Kendra: Here Comes Baby (E!, 9 PM) documents the birth of Kendra and Hank's son. Will Hef show up to the delivery room in person?
December 21, 2009
Gone so soon! The Sing-Off (NBC, 8 PM) season finale features a Boyz II Men reunion. Quick, someone find Nick Lachey some work!
The 5th season finale of The Closer (TNT, 9 PM) airs tonight.
December 22, 2009
My personal favorite Christmas-themed movie, Christmas Vacation (AMC, 8 PM) may be a good choice for your more cynical family members.
Tonight's episode of Scrubs (ABC, 8:30PM) features what the preview calls "an interracial Hardy Boys parody." Um, should I be offended?
An alternative to the drama of MTV's Teen Mom is I'm Pregnant...And 55 Years Old (Health, 9:30 PM). I can safely say that this mother's biggest problem is probably not finishing high school.
I generally like to stay away from the shows that my sister enjoys, but this season of The Bad Girls Club (Oxygen, 10 PM) is enjoyable due to the presence of a certain bad girl. Look for Natalie to declare that she "runs LA" about every 4.3 seconds, whatever that means.
December 23, 2009
CBS Special: A Home for the Holidays (CBS, 8 PM) features performances by Faith Hill, Reba McEntire, and the apparently very Christmas-friendly Mary J. Blige. She must have an album coming out.
Of course there's more to see on Real World/Road Rules Challenge: The Sh*t They Should Have Shown (MTV, 10 PM). There's always another former Real Worlder looking to extend their 15 minutes.
December 24, 2009
It's A Wonderful Life (NBC, 8 PM) may be the greatest Christmas story ever told. When I was a kid I always thought it would be cool to have a wicker wheelchair just like Lionel Barrymore's when I get old. They probably don't make them like they used to.
The series finale of Raising the Bar (TNT, 10 PM) airs tonight, following two previously unaired episodes. A sad day, indeed, for Zach Morris.
December 25, 2009
Even though you'll probably wish you shot both of your eyes out with BB gun after 24 hours of A Christmas Story (TNT, 8 PM 12/24 to 8PM 12/25), it's hard to avoid this holiday classic.

One standard through which the World Wide Web operates is the Uniform Resource Locator (URL). Each resource on the Web is linked via a URL, which in turn can be linked to another resource. The URL is the standard for addressing the location of a networked resource. The URL, though very powerful, does have serious limitations. In using the Web, inevitably one finds expired links, confusion between names and addresses, difficulty in distinguishing between various versions of a resource and many duplicates to sift through. Unlike the Online Catalog, the Web does not offer an infrastructure for bibliographic control. In 1992, to deal with these inadequacies, the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) chartered the Uniform Resource Identifiers (URI) Working Group to discuss and develop standards for naming, describing and addressing Internet resources.
URIs, URLs, URNs, URCs: The Efforts of the IETF
The Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) is meant to be an all-encompassing concept and syntax to include and coordinate all forms of Uniform Resource standards that would be needed for addressing, naming and describing networked resources. The URL, though developed and implemented before the URI concept, is a URI standard that addresses the location of a networked resource. Presently the URL is the only URI standard implemented. After three years of effort, the URI working group found that its chartered mission was much larger than it could handle, and in July 1995 it was disbanded by the IETF with the recommendation that its tasks be divided among future working groups. Among the accomplishments of the group are the URI syntax and two additional proposed forms of URIs. The proposed forms are Uniform Resource Names (URN) and Uniform Resource Characteristics (URC). The URN would deal with the issue of unique identifiers for networked resources. The URC would contain metadata on a networked resource. In other words, a URC standard could provide a syntax for a "bibliographic" description of a networked resource.
Uniform Resource Names
Since the dissolution of the URI working group, two draft charters were drawn up: one for a URC working group and the other for a URN group. In July 1996, the IETF formally established the URN working group. By the end of the year, all participating parties had agreed upon a number of key issues. The agreed framework includes the requirements for URNs, naming schemes and resolution systems (as well as their independence from each other) and a URN registry service.
The functional requirements of a URN, as agreed upon and defined by Sollins and Masinter's Request for Comment 1737 (1994), are as follows:
A naming scheme is a mechanism for creating and assigning unique identifiers that conform to a particular syntax. The participants agreed that the URN syntax should allow developers to utilize existing naming schemes without the fear of future development forcing them to modify existing numbers and/or schemes. In other words, a URN may include any naming scheme (also referred to as a namespace), be it ISBN, ISSN, LC call numbers, CNRI handles and so on. The syntax is as follows:
NID is the Namespace Identifier and NSS is the Namespace Specific String. Each namespace (a.k.a. numbering scheme) defines the structure of its NSS, and the Namespace ID is used to interpret the Namespace Specific String. An example for an ISBN would be
These names would be stored on a networked server for "resolution" to a given location(s). In the resolution process when a user clicks on a URN, a request is sent to a server. The server resolves the request by sending back to the user a list of URLs that match the URN. A similar system that has been in effect since the beginning of the Internet is the Domain Name System (DNS). Domain names (e.g., rci.rutgers.edu) are used to identify computer systems on the Internet. When a user sends a request to another computer on the Internet, the request is forwarded to a Domain Name Server, which resolves the domain name from the request into an Internet protocol address (e.g., 18.104.22.168). The request is then forwarded onto the specified destination. Many URN implementations are modeled on domain names and DNS.
Unlike the DNS, however, this concept of a URN system is intended to deploy more than one naming scheme. In order to accommodate any number of schemes, a URN naming scheme service and a resolution service must be independent of each other. To implement this requirement, an additional service would have to be added -- the URN Registry. A registry would contain information about naming schemes, naming authorities and resolution systems and could point a user to those resolution services that would resolve the URN. For example, when a user clicks on a URN, the request will be sent to a registry to determine which namespace is represented by the string contained in the NID field -- in this case "ISBN." Once the namespace has been determined, the request is mapped and forwarded to an appropriate resolution server that can resolve namespace specific strings -- in our proviso example, "ISBN numbers." The resolution server maps the ISBN number to specific URLs. The set of URLs is then forwarded back to the user. An example of how a URN retrieval would work is shown in Figure 1.
Several prototypes are now in use. Among them are the Handle System from the Corporation of National Research Initiatives (CNRI) and the x-dns-2 scheme developed by Paul E. Hoffman of Proper Publishing and Ron Daniel, Jr., of Los Alamos National Laboratory. Several in the IETF community feel that the combined implementation of CNRI's Handle system and OCLC's Persistent URL system (PURL) would constitute a workable URN system now.
Uniform Resource Characteristics
The would-be URC Working Group charter has been in a perpetual state of revision for over a year. Although the IETF has not officially formed a URC working group, work in developing URC standards goes on within many informal meetings of the IETF. Though the proposed charter addresses the need for descriptive data types, it was from outside institutions that a set of data types or data elements has gone through an extensive level of development through the auspices of OCLC's Dublin Core Metadata Workshop Series. The URC concept is still very undefined. However, a good description of what URCs could be is in Daniel and Mealling's March 1995 Internet draft titled URC Scenarios and Requirements. They propose that the URC would be the binding between the URN and the URL. Daniel and Mealling quote from Sollins and Masinter's Functional Requirements for Uniform Resource Names, Request for Comment 1737 (1994) that "the purpose or function of a URC is to provide a vehicle or structure for the representation of URIs and their associated meta-information." They describe what a URC service would do within the overall context of URIs and how the URC could bind URNs and URLs.
Several scenarios of how users would interact with a URC service are presented. For example, a user clicks on a URN. The browser connects to a URC service and sends it the URN. The query is mapped to a set of URLs and is returned to the user's browser. The list of URLs can be sorted by the data elements contained in the resources' URCs (e.g., title, authors, abstract, subject, version, date, location of resource, medium, veracity, price and so on). The retrieved set could be sorted either by a default specification in the user's browser or by the user's choice. The user would click on one of the URLs to retrieve the resource. The browser would automatically move to the next URL if the previous attempt was not successful and so on. The hypothetical browser in this scenario has considerable capability. Less capable browsers could be designed to display the URC data in a variety of formats, such as annotated subject lists.
Another scenario would be that a user examining a Web page would see a list of links that might be of interest. The user could click on the link with the right mouse button to display a pop-up menu. From the pop-up menu the user selects "More info." The browser displays a box with the resource's bibliographic description and other metadata (e.g., copyright information). The user decides whether to select the resource based on the metadata.
The consensus around a set of URN standards has taken more than five years to accomplish. Much progress has been made. However, even given the achievements to date, URNs still have a long way to go to deployment given the many controversies of administering such a system. One need only look at the present difficulties with the Domain Name System to understand that this is a major challenge. The URCs still are a vague notion. Though there has not been as much URC progress within the IETF, many accomplishments (similar to the goals of the URC) are being made with the Dublin Core Workshop Series and other metadata projects and the World Wide Web Consortium's work on a metadata transport syntax called Platform for Internet Content Selection (PICS).

BRISTOL, Tenn. – When King College started its women's wrestling program in 2009, the College knew it was increasing opportunities for women in athletics and enhancing the on-campus experience for both student-athletes and supporters of the program. But what it did not know was just how much and how fast the program would grow from one of the few in existence to the No. 1 team in the country of one of the fastest growing female sports.
The 2012-13 season will kick off this Saturday (Oct. 20) against a team that historically has dominated women's wrestling at the collegiate level, but No. 1 they are no more. The top team in the Women's Collegiate Wrestling Association (WCWA) will be inside the Freede Center this weekend, but it will not be the Oklahoma City Stars. It is your very own King Lady Tornado.
It was a pleasant surprise for the team and Head Coach Jason Moorman, when on the evening of Oct. 2 it was made official that King had, in fact, dethroned the perennial top dogs in the latest preseason rankings. A total of 17 individuals were ranked in the top-10 of their respective weight classes and two return as No. 1 in their divisions (Krista Revelle, 136; Sarah Hildebrandt, 123).
Coach Moorman expressed his surprise and pleasure with being named preseason No. 1, but said it is not where you begin that is important, but instead where you finish.
"What these girls have done, they did earn that No. 1 ranking," said Moorman. "However, preseason rankings are preseason rankings. What we've been talking to our team about since those rankings came out is the finished product."
"As much as we want to beat them [OCU] right now and keep that No. 1 spot, our main focus is January because the true champion wins at the very end when it matters," said returning 109-pound national champion, Emily Martin.
|Jason Moorman, head coach
|Sr., Emily Martin
No sooner did the Junior World Championships in Pattaya, Thailand conclude did the women's team get down to business preparing for the collegiate season. Last week, the team broke up into two lineups for an intrasquad exhibition as a prelude to this weekend's collegiate season opener. After one round of preliminary bouts, the teams were decided and so began the annual Scarlett v. Navy dual.
Twenty different grapplers took the mat for their respective teams and after a heated dual that meant just more than bragging rights but also starting spots for this weekend's dual versus Oklahoma City University. After all ten weight classes were represented, the Scarlett team won by a final score of 18-15.
Martin said, "There is great competition on this team. It was nerve-wracking but it felt great once I got out there. I thought that I would be thinking too much but once I got out there, I just rolled with it."
The Lady Tornado return their entire starting lineup from a season ago when they finished as WCWA National Runner Up. Redshirt senior Emily Martin (Frisco, Texas) and sophomore Krista Revelle (Meriden, Kan.) will defend their national championship titles while Sarah Hildebrandt (Granger, Ind.) and Alli Ragan (Carbondale, Ill.) look to improve upon their silver medals from last year's championship.
Katarina Perez made a late push to assert herself at the 2012 WCWA Championships and made a memorable run at the tournament for a third place finish in the 126-pound division.
Emily Martin earned an extra year of eligibility from the WCWA to come back for a fourth full season. The 109 pounder was named Wrestler of the Year at last year's championships on top of earning King's second individual national championship.
In just her second collegiate tournament following a late start with the Lady Tornado, Krista Revelle brought home King's second individual national championship of the evening.
Junior Alli Ragan was named Most Outstanding Wrestler at the Harry Geris Memorial and the NYAC Invitational en route to earning gold at both tournaments and a silver medal the 2013 WCWA Championships at the 136-pound division.
All of that quickly summarizes King's collegiate season only. A good portion of the team also took to the air in order to compete internationally. Six individuals qualified for the chance to represent the United States at the 2012 Olympic Games in London, England. While King did not have a representative on the Olympic team, all six did qualify for additional international competition by winning gold or silver medals at the 2012 Body Bar Championships in Lakeland, Fla.
Amanda Hendey (Beaumont, Calif.), Krista Revelle, and Kayla Bartosch (Triangle, Va.) all traveled to Peten, Guatemala to compete in the Junior Pan-American games. Hendey and Bartosch each earned a gold medal while Revelle was forced out of action due to injury.
The remaining three, Alli Ragan, Julia Salata, and Sarah Hildebrandt all qualified to represent the U.S. at the Junior World Championships, a tournament commonly known for producing tomorrow's Olympians of the sport. All three had very respectable showings but Ragan highlighted the King lineup with her second bronze medal at the Junior World Championships in as many years. King also took pride in sending the most representatives for a single institution.
And so it begins again. The 2012-13 season will get underway with a classic No. 1 v. No. 2 matchup to begin the season this Saturday (Oct. 20) at the Oklahoma City Duals. High expectations are being made by both wrestlers and coaches who are determined to keep their No. 1 overall team ranking intact through the WCWA Championships, which will be held at King College for a second straight year.
"We really thought last year we could beat OCU so this year we're going to stick everything to the mat. said senior Emily Martin. "
"They are hungry and if you see them every day in that wrestling room and how hard they are fighting, they want it bad," said Moorman. "Hopefully we can keep that motivation all semester long."
Katarina Perez (El Centro, Calif.) will be a large part of the team's success this year after having a stellar showing at the 2012 WCWA Championships where she achieved a huge and inspired upset for a bronze medal at the 123 pound weight class. The junior is expected to move to the 130-pound division this year.
While Hendey will have to wait for the Spring semester to be able to compete due to WCWA transfer rules, she will be ready to compete at the 2013 WCWA Championships. Until then, expect Ragan or freshman Sarah Saenz (Grenada Hills, Calif.) to fill the void. Other notable participants who names will be called up on this season will include 101 pounder Shannon Constantine (Haverhill, Ma.), 123 pounder Stacy Martin (Frisco, Texas), and 170 Rebecca Mattes (Randolph, N.J.). The 190-pound division will feature a tight race for a starting spot between freshmen Kieara Allison (Vallejo, Calif.), Clover Esquivel (Stockton, Calif.), and Malexis McAdoo (Amarillo, Texas).
Even though nearly every starter will be back and competing for the Lady Tornado, it does not mean the lineup is set in stone. Moorman is hopefully that with the level of intensity breeding among his players up and down the roster, it will also help improve everyone individually and breed competition for a starting role.
"We didn't want anybody to be complacent or comfortable in their starting position," said Moorman. "Every day in that practice room it's a competition. Someone is always trying to fight for that [starting] spot. If I can keep it that competitive every day, that is where we want to be."
As Coach Moorman said, it is not where you begin but where you finish. So regardless of the outcome of this weekend's dual against the five-time defending champion Oklahoma City Stars, the season will feature an adventure with many storylines developing in front of King's very eyes. Between defending champions fending off hungry competition, watching his own motivated wrestlers fight for the gold medal they feel they rightly deserve, the fresh faces beginning to make names for themselves, and everything in between, he will have plenty to write home about this season.
"We have a great group of girls. I could say something great about every single one of them," said Moorman. "It's a good time for King College Women's Wrestling and we are excited about what lies in the future."
His pen and paper are ready. Moorman and the Lady Tornado begin writing a new chapter of their ongoing growing legacy this weekend.

Scripture: 1 Samuel 1: 1 – 28 and 1 Samuel 2:18-21 or pages 216-217 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.
Do you think that you can talk to God about anything? What about things you are sad about? Do you think He wants you to pray about things that make you angry? Do you think He wants to hear about the things that make you happy?
God wants us to talk to him about everything. In fact, the Bible tells us to pray without ceasing. That means that we should pray all the time. He wants to hear about everything that we are doing and thinking – just like our moms and dads do.
Our lesson today is about Hannah who was very sad about something….
Bible Lesson:
Have the children open their Bibles to 1 Samuel 1 or page 216 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.)
- Why was Hannah sad? She had no children.
- Every year the family would go to Shiloh to the tabernacle. What did Hannah pray there? That if the Lord would give her a son, she would give him back to serve the Lord all of his life.
- She promised that he would be a Nazirite and never drink wine or cut his hair. Do you remember another son who was dedicated to the Lord as a Nazirite? Samson. John the Baptist.
- What did Eli, the priest think when he saw her praying silently? He thought that she was drunk.
- When she explained to him that she was praying with all of her heart, what did Eli say? "Go in peace; the God of Israel grant the petition you have made to him."
- When you are sad, what do you think that you should do? Pray and ask for the Lord's help.
- After Eli spoke to Hannah, was she still sad? No. She got up and went and ate and drank with her husband and wasn't sad anymore.
- Do you have a friend or relative who is sad or hurting? (Let the children tell about someone who needs their prayers.) Just as Eli's prayer was a very big encouragement to Hannah, just think how encouraging your prayers might be to that person.
- Did God give Hannah a baby? Yes. She had a boy named Samuel.
- How old was Samuel when Hannah took him to Eli at the tabernacle? Just old enough to feed himself.
- Do you think that it would have been easy or hard for Hannah to take Samuel there? Very hard. But, also she would have been excited to know that he was going to be serving God in a special way. (Point out that there are children who live away from their parents to receive special training for the Olympics and other special things. Hannah would have been very happy for Samuel to have the opportunity to live at the tabernacle with the priest.)
- Why did she take him there? She had made a promise to the Lord that she would give him back to him. She kept her promise, didn't she.
- Have you ever made a bargain with the Lord? Or have you heard of other people making bargains with the Lord? (Explain what it means to bargain with God.) Often people make a bargain with God – but then later they forget about their promise and they don't follow through on it. But, Hannah didn't forget. She kept her promise to the Lord. It's important to keep the promises that we've made.
- Can you think of another time in the Bible when a Son was given up? Yes, God gave Jesus – his only son – to die for our sins.
- How did Hannah show her love for Samuel? She brought him a new robe each year when the family came to offer the sacrifice.
- How did God bless Hannah for her faithfulness? He gave her 5 other children.
- How long did Samuel stay at the tabernacle? All of his life. Next week we will learn about what happened to Samuel there. He became a very special prophet and preist.
- Let's pray and thank the Lord for hearing Hannah's prayer and our prayers as well. And let's thank the Father for giving his Son Jesus…
During the remaining class time do activities that help to reinforce what the children have learned. Here are some suggestions…
Memorize the verse.
James 5:13a (KJ21) "Is any among you afflicted? Let him pray."
Show a video of this story:
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 An excellent color page book is "Through-the-Bible Coloring Pages For Ages 4-8" by Janet Skiles. The pages are reproducible.
Make a booklet called "Hannah's Prayer" from Lambsongs. Scroll down.
Have the children make this craft from Auntie's Bible Lessons.
Have younger children make this craft from Crafting the Word of God.
Have the children make a praying hands silhouette craft like this one from DLTK , or this one from His Treasure Seekers. (scroll down) Or this one from concordia news.
Share this object lesson , or this one, both from Kids Sunday School.
Share this children's sermon from sermons4kids. Don't forget the activities at the bottom of the page!
This lesson from world harvest church has some great ideas – like bubble prayers – for this lesson.
Have the children fill out these worksheets from Calvary Curriculum. "Hannah" and "Samuel is Born"
Do a crossword puzzle from Sermons4Kids.

Fresh Foreclosure Cases Fall to Lowest Level Since 2006
Delinquencies Fall, Too, as Housing Rebound Continues
The rate of fresh foreclosure proceedings has fallen to the lowest level in eight years, the latest evidence that an improving economy and rising home values are preventing greater numbers of homeowners from falling behind.
The Mortgage Bankers Association reported Thursday that foreclosure proceedings began on just 0.4% of mortgages loans during the second quarter. That was down from 0.45% in the first quarter and far below the 1.42% rate seen at the crisis's worst point in the third quarter of 2009. The last time the rate...

Skip to comments.Obama Campaign Seeks Middle Ground on Gay Marriage [Big Lie Alert!]
Posted on 05/08/2012 5:28:31 AM PDT by SoFloFreeper
Thanks to a pair of top Obama administration officials recently pronouncing their support for it, the issue of gay marriage has rocketed into political headlines six months before Election Day.
Same-sex marriage advocates also say the issue could have implications during the presidential election, thanks in part to the number of states scheduled to hold referenda on related issues.
"We here at the [Human Rights Campaign] are saying that 2012 will be the year of marriage," says Fred Sainz, vice president of communications and marketing for the group, which bills itself as the largest civil rights organization promoting equality for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender Americans.
"Not since 2006 will as many voters be forced to come to terms with their personal opinions and emotions around marriage," he says. "The American public is going to be in a constant state of dialogue on this issue."
(Excerpt) Read more at usnews.com ...
Maybe in that 4 years he will come out of the closet.
It seems like it's some of the libs calling Obama out on this, others are sympathizing with him being so deceptive because 'he has to' to get re-elected. It was a main topic onthe Democrat channel last night.
Over at the Romney channel (FNC) I dont see much talk about this, much like with DADT. And naturally Romney wants to avoid being asked.
The useful idiots know that he is lying but it's for a good cause...re-election of the one.
What amazing me is how many lib strong Obama supporters like L O Donnell on MSNBC were laughing and joking and asked :"Does ANYONE really believe that Obama doesnt support marriage equality? HA-HA-HA" (the new PC poll tested term.)
They were really telling any voters that support Obama because they believe him on this (many blacks and Hispanics I bet who don't like SS marriage) that they are stupid.
This was covered this morning on FOX. One angle that was brought up was North Carolina and how it is a pivotal state for the president this year.
Probably pretty briefly.
At the gym yesterday CNN was on one TV and they got three panelists on to talk about it, one was a Obama advisor and another was Romney adviser.
OBAM adviser (a woman) said that Obama really is evolving and that he speaks sincerely from 'the heart' on this subject. GAG
Anyone believing her is stupid.
Romney spokesman (a man) said :"We are focused on the economy" and changed the subject.
There is no middle ground for allowing queers to 'marry'. Obama should come out of the closet and see what happens.
I saw Britt Hume today and the first panel issue was this and he had on a lib from the NYT and one from the Wash Post on the panel. They both agreed that this made Obama look weak and he should just come out with his support now. They also said that Romney cannot involve his campaign with this because he needs to win independents from Obama.

Should Roger Mahony Vote for Next Pope? Questions Swirl Over Embattled Archbishop
ROME – Los Angeles Archbishop Roger Mahony, relieved of his duties last month for mishandling and covering up pedophilia abuse cases, can still participate in the upcoming election for pope, according to a fellow cardinal who will take part in the conclave next month.
"The common practice is to use persuasion. There is no more that can be done. Cardinal Mahony has the right and duty to take part," Velasio De Paolis, one of the cardinal electors, told the Italian newspaper La Repubblica.
"This is a troubling situation but the rules must be followed," he told the newspaper, according to AFP newswire.
Questions over Mahony began after an influential Italian Catholic magazine asked its readers if Mahony should participate in the upcoming election for a new pope.
Famiglia Cristiana, one of Italy's most-read magazines, featured the question on its website Monday asking readers: "Your opinion: Mahony in the conclave: Yes or No?"
An online petition has also been started by an association of US Catholics, Catholics United, demanding that Mahony not be allowed to elect the next pope.
Mahony was stripped of his duties last month by his successor at the largest Catholic diocese in the United States. Recently released documents showed that Mahony and other diocesan officials maneuvered to shield child-molesting priests and keep Catholics unaware of sexual abuse in their parishes.
Mahony has said he looks forward to traveling to Rome to participate in the conclave of cardinals who will elect the successor of Pope Benedict XVI, who steps down Feb. 28. He took part in the last conclave in 2005 that voted in Benedict.

PRINCETON – Voters in the Bureau Valley School District have voiced a change.
Four new board members will make up BV's next school board.
In District 5, Justin Yepsen beat out incumbent Roger Craine with 105 votes to Craine's 49 votes. In District 6, Matthew Wiggim beat Shelly Teske with 188 votes to Teske's 121 votes. District 7 saw William Gebeck beat out incumbent Myron Rumbold with 127 votes to Rumbold's 53 votes.
There were no contested races for Districts 1, 2, 3 and 4. Incumbents Kent Siltman, Don DeWaele, Rick Cernovich and newcomer Donald King will represent these districts.
The board set a special meeting to seat newly-elected board members at 7:30 p.m. May 6.
Cherry Grade School
In the Cherry Grade School District, voters kept three incumbents and brought on one newcomer to their school board.
Incumbents Jim Lower, Wendy Raef and Craig Mitchell hung onto their seats, and newcomer Alexa Doll snagged the fourth available board seat. The night ended with Lower at 156 votes; Raef, 145 votes; Mitchell, 129 votes; and Doll, 120 votes. Incumbent Deb Brokaw was left with 115 votes, and new candidate Al Hahn collected 81.
Spring Valley Community School
In Spring Valley, voters decided to keep three incumbents and chose one newcomer to make up their new school board.
Incumbents Theodore Urbanski, James Faletti and Raymond Nolasco held onto their seats, as newcomer Thomas Vallero snagged the fourth available seat.
In the end, Urbanski picked up 1,405 votes; Faletti, 1,377 votes; Vallero, 1,253 votes; Nolasco, 1,195. Incumbent Gregory Case was left with 920 votes, and incumbent James Scarpaci had 745 votes.
Princeton Elementary School
In Princeton, voters kept all three incumbents and selected one newcomer to fill the PES Board.
Incumbents Doris Hamilton, Terry O'Neil and Judson Lusher will continue to serve the board, as newcomer Elizabeth Arkels beat out other new candidate Heather Sampson for the fourth seat.
Hamilton ended the night with 1,273 votes; O'Neil, 1,215 votes; Lusher, 1,196 votes. Arkels just slid by Sampson with 1,106 votes to Sampson's 1,068 votes.
Malden Grade School
In Malden, four new candidates competed for three spots on the school board.
Voters cast solid votes to push Jim May to a seat with 205 votes and Mary Joiner to the second seat with 168 votes. However, voters were split 50/50 on the two other newcomers Tawnya Marciniak and Jonathan Ross.
The night ended with a tie between Marciniak and Ross with 158 votes for each candidate. According to Bureau County Clerk Kami Hieronymus, there are no outstanding absentee ballots in the Malden School District, therefore a lottery or coin flip will take place after April 24 in the county clerk's office to determine which candidate will snag the third seat.
Hall High School
In the Hall High School District, voters decided to keep the three incumbents seated on the school board.
Incumbents John Piccatto Jr., Betsy Sobin and Marty Herrmann beat new candidates Richard Piontek and Timothy Trevier.
The night ended with Herrmann at 2,245 votes; Sobin at 2,026 votes; Piccatto at 1,793 votes. Trevier was left with 1,468 votes, and Piontek with 1,049 votes.
LaMoille Community Unit School
In the LaMoille School District, incumbent Mary Taylor and newcomers Roger Moore and Earl Stuepfert were voted onto the school board.
Taylor ran unopposed for an unexpired two-year term.
Because the LaMoille School Board cannot be made up of no more than three school board members from one township, Roger Moore snagged the third LaMoille Township seat with 269 votes. The three LaMoille Township Board members are now Brent Becker, Taylor and Moore.
New candidate Earl Stuepfert of Westfield Township made it to the board, as he collected 293 votes. The three Westfield Township board members are Jeff Pinter, Mary Stouffer and Stuepfert.
Although Kevin Hildebrand collected 210 votes and the results appear to look like he snagged a seat, he cannot sit on the board because he lives in LaMoille Township, and the three spots are filled.
The board will have to appoint a board member to fill the last seat available on the board. The person appointed will have to live in either Clarion, Berlin or May townships.

UW La Crosse Football, The Roger Harring Era & Michigan's Greg Mattison
UW La Crosse Football, The Roger Harring Era & Michigan's Greg Mattison
Greg Mattison played his college football at University of Wisconsin-La Crosse (Division III). He played for arguably one of the great football college football coaches of all time, Roger Harring, who is in the College Football Hall of Fame.
Michigan's DC Greg Mattison played for Harring and the UW-LaCrosse Indians (now called the Eagles) in 1969 and 1970. These were Harring's first two years coaching at UWL finishing 5-5 in 1969 and 5-4-1 in 1970.
Harring never had a losing season and finished 261-75-7 (.771) 12th all time among college coaches and 4th among Division III.
I found this document from the UW-LaCrosse online library a very interesting read about Harring and Mattison. There are season summaries for Harring's football teams for 1969 and 1970 which include Mattison in the team photos. He wore No. 63 in 1969 and No. 66 in 1970.
1969 UW-LaCrosse Indians Team Photo: 8th row (top row) first player on the left is Mattison:
1970 UW-LaCrosse Indians football team: Mattison is in second row, 5th player from the left (No. 66):
Also, apparently Greg Mattison was drafted in 1971 by the Washington Redskins (see page 9).

Categories --> Maker --> Kobayashi Kansui Ink Pattern/Summinagashi
Kansui Ink Pattern/Summinagashi knives feature a Jigane, which is made by repeatedly folding together two layers of different types of stainless steel. This unique process creates a stainless Jigane with 16 exceedingly thin, alternating layers, called Damascus. The Jigane is then forge welded to both sides of a stainless cobalt steel core and tempered to Rockwell c63º. This process creates a blade of great beauty, as well as strength. The addition of cobalt and manganese to the high-carbon steel core greatly increases durability and ease of sharpening. These knives are perfect for restaurant and heavy home use. They will never tarnish or rust. Paaka wood handles are riveted to the full length tang. Each blade comes razor sharp.

Apple has announced the release of the developer preview of the next version of its OS X operating system - Mountain Lion - on Thursday, giving developers and Mac users a sneak peek into what is to come when the new OS launches in the summer.
Key to the new OS is a number of new features that further merge the company's two operating systems "Mac OS X" and "iOS" for the iPhone, iPad and iPod touch even closer together.
iOS-fication of the desktop, started by Lion, really is in full swing as we found out, having already been demoed the new developer preview from Apple ahead of the official announcement.
Key to the merging of the two operating system is that OS X will take on several features previously found in iOS including iMessage, Reminders, Notes, Game Center, Notifications, and heavily integrated iCloud support that allows users to share data and files quickly within the Apple eco-system of devices in their home.
But it's not only new apps that will be heading to Mountain Lion, but also a more iOS approach to apps.
Apple hopes to simplify everything by also using the same terminology on the desktop as it does on the mobile platform. Address Book becomes Contacts while iCal becomes Calendar, to mirror the iPhone offerings of the same name.
As with iOS Twitter will also play a major part in the new operating system, being "baked in" in the same way it has been on the mobile devices from Apple.
Users will be able to share links, images, video and more instantly with Twitter, Flickr and Vimeo at the press of a button rather than having to cut and paste or open separate applications.
AirPlay Mirroring also gets a look in in Mountain Lion with users able to wireless stream their desktop to a television with a little help from Apple's Apple TV.
But it isn't just about the iOS-ification of Mac OS X. It has new features and new apps to that can't be found on the mobile platform.
Apple is introducing a new digital signature feature for developers, called Gatekeeper to try to stop Malware, while those in China get greater support for native services and the Chinese language.
OS X also features new graphics features for developers to take advantage of and better support to allow developers to include an array of gesturers in their apps, suggesting that plenty of exciting things could be coming in the future from developers keen to take advantage.
Our time was brief with the new OS and we are already planning a second, more in-depth look in our own time with the next generation operating system, but it is clear that while there isn't any major groundbreaking new features - as we've seen with Apple operating systems in the past - this is Apple getting their "ducks in row" and simplifying the whole process. Apple are using Mountain Lion to ditch a several strange anomalies that have appeared over years of tinkering and no longer match the more popular iPhone and iPad. That, to our minds, is a good thing.
Whether it is simply calling iCal Calendar or moving the software updates from a dedicated service to the Mac App Store to make it more logical, anything that makes using your computer easier is more than welcome in our book.
We especially like the new ability to play games against our iPhone or iPad touting friends via the desktop with the addition of Game Center and streaming our desktop to our TV via Apple TV is going to be great fun too.
The new operating system might not convince you over and above any other reason you've already thought about to buy a Mac but by Jove, when you do make the plunge if you are coming from an iPad or an iPhone, it will be even easier to understand tham it ever has been previously.
OS X Mountain Lion is expected to be released in the summer.
- OS X Mountain Lion: 10 hot new features preview shows us coming
- iCloud for OS X Mountain Lion brings auto setup and syncing
- iMessage kills iChat as it brings texting to Lion, you can try it now
- Twitter to be baked into OS X Mountain Lion
- Vimeo not YouTube gets instant share option in Mountain Lion
- iOS style notifications hit OS X Mountain Lion in new Notification Center
- Game Center for Mountain Lion: Apple to take desktop gaming seriously
- Reckless Racing 2 multiplayer Mac vs iPad becomes a reality thanks to Mountain Lion
- Apple iTV could mirror your Mac
- Apple Gatekeeper to protect your new Mac from malware in Mountain Lion
- Safari to follow Chrome with unified search bar in Mountain Lion
- OS X updates to become yearly
- Apple software updates move to Mac App Store

Fresh Start: Nourish Your Home and Yourself All Year Long
During the warmer months, strolling through the farmer's market is an appealing way to spend an afternoon but don't forget that a variety of local produce is available all year round. Your local market sellers are also an excellent resource for learning about the plants that will work best during the winter in your area. Keeping an abundance of fresh fruits and vegetables in your home will encourage healthy eating and like house plants and flowers, it can add beauty and life to your space.
If you can't bring yourself to brave the chill and visit the market, most farms offer a winter term Community Supported Agriculture program (CSA) that will deliver fresh food throughout the season.
• To find the winter month farmer's market nearest you visit Local Harvest or Community Markets.

The Quadruped Pushback for Reflexive Core Stability
By Perry Nickelston, DC, FMS, SFMA
What is core stability, and how can we train it automatically without conscious thought? Core stability "describes the ability of the trunk to support force production, and withstand forces acting upon it."1 Core stability is often confused with core strength, whereby the central torso muscles are trained with high-threshold exercises in order to produce and withstand large force demands.
True core stability is motor control, encompassing timing proportion and sequencing of the muscles in a chain of activation. These chains comprise the intrinsic reflexive core (diaphragm, transverse abdominis, multifidi and pelvic floor) and the outer unit subsystems of deep, lateral, anterior and posterior. I would also include the posterior fibers of the internal oblique and the deep neck flexors to the deep stabilizing intrinsic core system.
Optimizing function of the intrinsic core supersedes training of the outer units. You need proximal stability for optimal distal mobility.2 Optimal training of the deep reflexive system should be done with minimal coaching or cueing. Using movements that "switch on" the mechanism without conscious thought is the end goal. The quadruped pushback exercise can do just that when done correctly with quality sequencing.
The quadruped movement is successful when the patient can do the exercise without pain. As soon as pain comes on board, the neural network of learning corrective patterns is sabotaged. The body will compensate and fall back on poor movement patterns to accomplish the given task. Watch the video below to understand these critical factors to monitor for a quality execution:
"Active movements demonstrate basic control and are followed by static stabilization under load. This is followed by dynamic stabilization under load. From this framework, our freedom of movement and controlled movement patterns are developed for transitions in posture and position, maintenance of posture, locomotion and the manipulation of objects."3 Functional stability of the core can reduce injury risk by minimizingmusculoskeletal stress, managing outside forces, and increasing balance and control. What better way to help maximize quality of life during activities of daily living, sport and play? Discover how much patients enjoy the exercise and the fast-acting results in terms of how they feel.
