The Prophet's
(peace and blessings be upon him) Marriage Sermon
Prophet Muhammad taught the following Khutba
(sermon) for Nikah (the marriage ceremony). Allah's peace and blessings be upon
him. (Ibn Masood narrated it as reported in Tirmithi, may Allah be pleased with
Innal Hamda lillahi, nastaeenuhu wa nastaghfirhu,
wa naoozu billahi min shorrori anfusina. Man yahdihi Allahu fala mudhilla lahu
wa mayn yudhlil fa la hadia lah. Wa ash hadu al la ilaha il lal lah wa ash hadu
an na Muhammadan abduhu wa rasooluhu.
All praises are for Allah. We seek Guidance and
forgiveness from Him. We also seek refuge in Him from the evils of our
ownselves. Whoever Allah guides, noone can misguide him. Whoever He lets go
astray noone can put him back on track. We testify that there is no god but
Allah and we testify that Muhammad is Allah's servant and His messenger.
this initial statement, the Prophet would recite the following verses from the
Believers! Fear Allah as He should be feared, and
see that you do not die save in the state of submission to Allah. (Quran 3:102)
O men! Fear your Lord Who created you from a
single being and out of it created its mate; and out of the two spread many men
and women. Fear Allah in Whose name you plead for rights, and heed the ties of
kinship. Surely, Allah is ever watchful over you. (Quran 4:1)
O believers, fear Allah and say the right thing.
Allah will make your conduct (affairs) whole and sound and will overlook your
errors. Whoever obeys Allah and His Messenger, has indeed attained to a great
success. (Quran 33:70-71)
Explanation: There are
several principles, which these verses present:
By asking for Taqwa four times in these verses,
Allah is clearly setting the principles on which a sound and stable family life
can be established. The Prophet felt it was important to exhort the marrying
believers to fear God and to avoid courting His displeasure whenever he gave a
marriage sermon. Allah's mercy and blessings be upon him.
Taqwa is an important Arabic term with no clear
equivalent in English. It is translated as piety, Allah consciousness, fear of
Allah, Mindfulness of Allah, Living a life which follows Allah's guidance.
Marrying individuals who are mindful of Allah (who
have Taqwa), are more conscious of their Creator, stay away from what He has
prohibited, and enjoin what He has recommended are more likely to be good to
each other and successful in marriage.
Taqwa (piety) is not just reflected in worship and
Halal (permissible) types of marriage. It also requires clear communication
between the spouses. This is the reason that immediately after asking believers
for Taqwa, Allah is asking them to adopt proper speech by saying only the right
Proper communication is rewarding in this world in
that Allah will make your affairs right.
Proper communication will also be rewarded by
Allah on the Day of Judgment, when He will also forgive our shortcomings in the
hereafter because of it.
By reminding us that He has created us, Allah is
telling us that He knows what is in our best interests.
It is also recognized that all human beings have
sprung from the same root and that all of them are, therefore, of one another's
flesh and blood.
By mentioning the process of creation, Allah is
bringing in focus the purpose of marriage, and indicating that by marrying each
other, we are becoming part of the sacred process of creation that Allah has
set up.
Quran does not recognize any marriage that is not
between a man and a woman.
Verse [4:1] is not just for Muslims only because
Allah is addressing all of humanity. While Muslims are one brotherhood, this is
part of a larger brotherhood of humanity. However, it is the duty of Muslims to
serve Allah as a model servants of humanity.
At the time of marriage through these verses, the
Prophet also asked marrying Muslims and the attending audience to attend to
their relatives. This is the reason there are rights and duties of Muslims
towards their relatives even if they are non-Muslims.
However, the only criterion of preference, Taqwa,
is not measurable by human beings. Indeed Allah is the One Who knows and is
aware of everything so we should leave even this criterion to Allah to decide
instead of human beings judging each other.
Let's think of our best moments with our Creator
and our loving moments with His creation as we all pray for these newly married
servants of Allah.
May Allah bless your marriage with the beauty of
the marriage of Ayesha and her husband, may Allah be pleased with her.
May Allah guide you both on the steps of Taqwa and
may He provide the two of you with good communication in your relationship.
May Allah bless the earth with your progeny who we
pray will be better than us toward their Creator and His Creation.
May Allah help us all reaffirm our commitments to
each other.
May Allah give Barakah (blessings) to the families
of the bride and groom. May Allah bring them closer. May Allah make you a model
family that will invite humanity to follow the guidance of its Creator.
Allahumma taqabbal minna innaka antas Sameeul
Aleem. Wa tub alaina innaka antat tawwabur Raheem.
Allahumma Salle Ala Syyedena Muhammad wa ala alihi
wa sallam.


text: Hoyer Statement on the Supplemental Appropriations Act For Immediate Release: May 14, 2009 Contact Info: Katie GrantStephanie Lundberg(202) 225 - 3130 WASHINGTON, DC – House Majority Leader Steny H. Hoyer (MD) spoke on the House Floor today in support of the FY 2009 Supplemental Appropriations Act, which includes funding for Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and pandemic flu. Below are his remarks as prepared for delivery: "I urge my colleagues to support this supplemental appropriations bill, which makes vital investments in the needs of our troops, responsible policy abroad, and security at home. And I want to thank Chairman Obey and his staff for their hard work in putting this legislation together. "First of all, the supplemental helps our troops stay safe in harm's way, and honors their service when they return home. Some of its most notable provisions include $4.8 billion for Mine Resistant Ambush Protected vehicles, or MRAPs, to protect our troops from explosions on the road; $1.2 billion for health and support programs for military families; and $734 million to retroactively compensate servicemembers and veterans for every month their service was extended by stop-loss orders. "The supplemental also makes important commitments to our national security. It follows through on President Obama's commitment to remove all combat troops from Iraq by 2010, and it refocuses our attention on Afghanistan and Pakistan, which remain havens for terrorists seeking to destabilize the region and harm Americans. American military involvement is an important part of our effort for a stable Afghanistan that no longer harbors terrorists—but that effort also includes training Afghan security forces and police, development work, and a diplomatic surge. Of the $5.1 billion that this supplemental dedicates to Afghanistan, $3.6 billion is intended for local security forces, $980 million for efforts to strengthen the economy and the rule of law, and $536 million for civilian diplomacy. "We have also come to understand, as President Obama has repeatedly stressed, that the stability of Afghanistan is intimately tied to the stability of Pakistan, which is under threat from a resurgent Taliban. I believe that this supplemental will help reduce that threat, through comprehensive funding for counterinsurgency, development, and diplomacy programs in Pakistan. But it is also essential that the Afghan and Pakistani governments hold up their end of the bargain. That is why this legislation requires the President to report to Congress, by February of next year, on the progress of those governments in five key areas: the level of political consensus; the level of corruption and steps taken to eliminate it; success in counterinsurgency; the cooperation of their intelligence services with the United States; and the governments' ability to control their territory. This information will be essential to ensuring that our policy remains realistic and wise—and, I hope, ultimately successful—in this critical region of the world. "Finally, this supplemental makes a number of other important investments in our security. These include funding for pandemic flu preparedness and vaccine stockpiles, the importance of which have been dramatically demonstrated in the past weeks; funding to address violence along the U.S.-Mexico border, a priority I strongly support after visiting Mexico just last month; and funding for important international food, refugee, and disaster assistance. "Mr. Speaker, this supplemental embodies responsible spending on some of our most important national priorities. I urge my colleagues to support it."

Plasma Physicist
Research how plasma can be used to create amazing products.
What does a Plasma Physicist do?
Plasma is a state of matter, and it's a lot like gas. You can't see it, and it doesn't hold a shape unless it's put in a container. Unlike gas, however, plasma can form filaments and bands when it's placed in an electric field. A Plasma Physicist studies this substance, figuring out how it works and how it can be turned into products that people are willing to pay for.
What kind of research you do as a Plasma Physicist depends heavily on the company you work for. If you're employed by a power company, you spend most of your time trying to figure out how to turn plasma into energy. If you work as a Plasma Physicist for a television manufacturing company, you research ways to make smaller, better plasma television screens.
You may be given a specific product to improve in a specific way. You design a plasma experiment, determining each step as well as the expected outcome. You may heat up plasma, cool it down, compress it into a small space, or apply different magnetic fields to it.
You record all of your observations in detail, and write up reports explaining what you've found. The people who read your reports are likely not Plasma Physicists themselves, so you use familiar language and small words to explain your difficult concepts.
You may also do research on plasma applications that don't currently have a commercial application yet. With a fabulous idea that you just know will form the basis of a wonderful product, you may spend weekends and holidays in the lab, working on your magical creation.

Droughns Heads East to Join Browns
Wednesday, March 30, 2005; 5:58 PM
Ekuban, 28, had a career-best eight sacks for the Browns last season after managing only 12 ½ sacks in five seasons for the Dallas Cowboys. The Cowboys selected him in the first round of the 1999 draft. He becomes the third defensive lineman who is a former first-round draft choice to move from Cleveland to Denver in a span of about a month. The Broncos traded a fourth-round pick in next month's draft to the Browns for defensive tackle Gerard Warren, and agreed to a contract this week with defensive end Courtney Brown after he was released by Cleveland. The Browns' former defensive line coach, Andre Patterson, now works for the Broncos.
The Chargers are joining the 49ers in squashing speculation that quarterback Philip Rivers could be traded from San Diego to San Francisco for the top overall pick in next month's draft. The trade would give the 49ers a quarterback prospect widely regarded as more promising than Rodgers or Smith, and would give the Chargers -- who already have Drew Brees at quarterback--three first-round draft choices on the heels of a season in which they went 12-4 and won the AFC West.

I have uploaded to SSRN, my new paper, We the People: Each and Every One, that is forthcoming in the Yale Law Journal as part of its symposium on "The Meaning of the Civil Rights Revolution." The Symposium was organized to mark the publication of the latest in the "We the People" series of books by Yale law professor Bruce Ackerman, We the People, Volume 3: The Civil Rights Revolution. In my paper, I critique Ackerman's project and identify an alternative to the collectivist conception of popular sovereignty that he and others accept. Here is the abstract of my paper:
In his book series, We the People, Bruce Ackerman offers a rich description of how constitutional law comes to be changed by social movements. He also makes some normative claims about "popular sovereignty," "popular consent," "higher law," and "higher-lawmaking." In this essay, I examine these claims and find them to be both highly under-theorized and deeply problematic. Ackerman's own presentation of what he considers to be an informal process of constitutional amendment illustrates the importance of formality in protecting the rights retained by the people. And he assumes a collective conception of popular sovereignty without considering the serious normative problems raised by majority and supermajority rule. Rule by a majority or supermajority is not the answer to the problem of constitutional legitimacy; it is the problem that requires a normative solution. As an alternative to collective or majoritarian conceptions of popular sovereignty, I identify an individualist conception that yields fundamentally different conclusions about the purpose of a written constitution, including the importance of written amendments in safeguarding the rights retained by a sovereign people, each and every one. Finally, in a Postscript I respond to Professor Ackerman's reply to this essay.

Well, there are a few ways of "testing" your success. You could actually test your success by doing very small scale things. Admittedly, it's easier to do with something like divination where you can set it up so that someone else knows the answer but you don't or something similar.
From what I can tell though most magic is more subtle than trying to find a correct or incorrect answer (which is a 50/50 chance anyway). Magic may help to shift the balance in your favour just slightly. Sometimes it's enough for things to go your way, other times it doesn't change anything. I'd say that if your intentions are manifesting, you're doing something right (magically or not) and there's no need to alter much. Either the balance was already in your favour or you managed to tip it.
(I would like to clarify that when I say "balance," I am using it purely as a metaphor. I'm really referring to the balance of statistics and the probabilities of intentions manifesting or not. Balance is only used because it sort of sums it neatly)

"Women on the Verge of an Armed Robbery."
Four unlikely women team up, for their own but unselfish reasons, in order to rob the bank where one (Ozores) works as a cleaning lady. There's also a rich bankrupt, out to fund her daughter's wedding; a slutty hairdresser who's just found out she's pregnant; and an antisocial punk orphan, who wants to be reunited with her father in Argentina. What makes this Spanish film work, is less the action, and more the characters – or at least, the women, since the men never become more than two-dimensional. The script is brisk and efficient, moving things along with swift abandon, and sucks the viewer in to a connection with the ladies, their problems, and the solution.
Of course, this being a heist film, spanners get thrown in the works at random, derailing their non-violent way to liberate the cash. Add in to the mix, that the cleaner ex-husband is a cop, and their young son has picked up on Mommie's plan, and the potential for disaster is clear. Interestingly, however, the film may not quite end up where you think, and director Lesmes deserves credit for avoiding the most obvious cliches or, at least, presenting them with enough spin as to keep them entertaining. The four lead actresses are all excellent – if you've seen many Almodovar films, you'll recognise Maura as the rich lady. Just on top is Alterio, playing punk Pecholata (which translates as 'Thimbletits'!), who combines strength and vulnerability in a way that's a good summary of the whole movie.

Booking with Pole Position Travel means you also have a private VIP guide on hand to help maximise your experience. We provide useful items such as poster tubes, ear plugs, bags and other items. We routinely bring guest riders into the Village. Best of all, we will take you on a private paddock and garage tour! We strongly urge you to book both days. Friday optionally join our team in the paddock for just €199! Mugello notes: Marquee on pit building. No grandstand, recommend purchase of (discounted) g/s ticket. Full bar. Short walk from car park. Parking passes provided on request, guaranteed only for parties of 4 or more. Discounted €50 if booked with package!
We can't stop singing the praises of the new Platinum "Plus" Hospitality. You will be situated on a private terrace atop the Central grandstands with stunning views of much of the track, pits, podium and giant TVs in addition to CCTV coverage. You will also have a seat in the "Platinum" Centrale Grandstand, and full general admission access. Superb catering includes lunch, snacks and soft drinks (wine is served with lunch). Our Pole Position/Mugello Welcome Pack (with programme) helps you stay on course, and Pole Position guides are on hand to help with any matter. Best of all - our "plus" - we will take you across the bridge/tunnel into the PADDOCK for private tours, pit visits, rider meetings and generally catch up with the action "behind the scenes". If you really want to experience this iconic circuit, this is truly the platinum product! Sat/Sun or Sunday only. Friday customers may opt for Friday Team Experience, just €199 - or add the entire weekend with paddock access for the discounted rate of €499! (Paddock passes are on a 'checkout' basis, but we maintain a generous approximate 1:8 ratio so you will get plenty of paddock time if you wish!)
Always the race with the biggest 'buzz' of the tournament, probably because the Italians are such moto fanatics! This event is likely to sell out this year, book early! All grandstands have TV view, also visible from parts of the standing areas. However, be warned: this event gets crowded like no other, we strongly recommend grandstands if you don't want to fight for your spots! Centrale is excellent to view the start/finish and the podium (always a mad rush after Rossi wins!) and it is covered (Silver is the top half of the grandstand and Bronze is the bottom). The best stand of all in our view is Biondetti - covered, reserved and great views to the northern turns. Also one of these or the Centrale tickets are essential if you want to access the prato or merchandise areas from the paddock or VIP. Poggio Secco has a great view & is the home of the Rossi fan club, with wide panoramic views and great atmosphere.

TOPEKA, Kan. (KSNT) The gunman who is being held in connection with a Monday midday shooting at a central Topeka gas station is facing more than a dozen charges.
According to a criminal complaint provided to Kansas First News, 50 year-old Daniel Lynn Cregut of Topeka was charged with four counts of attempted first degree murder.
In all, he faces a total of 14 felony charges and two misdemeanors. The charges stem from Monday's incident where, according to the complaint, Cregut held a woman at gunpoint. The woman eventually talked Cregut into letting her get some cigarettes at the BP gas station at Huntoon and Lane.
Three people inside the business helped the woman hide from Cregut. During the incident, Cregut fired a gunshot and struck Bryon Snyder. He was hospitalized and is now in fair condition. After the shooting, Cregut hid out at a nearby home and surrendered to police shortly before 6 p.m. Monday.

A Bould Move For Barnsley?
Barnsley Football Club's decision to publicly announce the acquisition of Michael Boulding's services free of charge has split opinion in Barnsley.
One section of supporters are calling it the worst piece of PR in the history of the club whilst others are applauding both Boulding and the club for such a noble approach to the situation.
It has to be said that at 34 years old and with very little Championship experience under his belt, Boulding will have one hell of a task on his hands battling his way into Mark Robins' plans for the new season.
Good on him for the gesture. He could probably have settled for a one year deal at Mansfield Town but instead chose to chance it all on a return to Barnsley, where he scored 10 goals in 27 starts some 5 years ago, with no guarantees and no pay.
If it was a teenage footballer hoping to earn a deal, he would be praised for his belief and ambition, but is this the move of a desperate veteran trying to swing one last deal through before he retires?
Both the club and the player have drawn praise from the Football League for this unprecedented occurance, with Gavin Megaw stating: 'Both the club and the player deserve credit for this arrangement. The player gains a valuable opportunity to earn a contract if successful, and the club gains from a player demonstrating a great attitude and belief in his ability to deliver for Barnsley.'
It's nice to get praise from the League for once, but what we really want as supporters is promising signings. Even if Boulding hadn't played for us before and we could remove whatever judgemental prejudices we have against him, it still wouldn't look like a good move for a club wanting to challenge for the Championship Play-Offs.
That said, there are still no guarantees Boulding will earn a deal. Obviously Mark Robins has seen something in him that's made him want a closer look and, if Mark Robins sees fit to hand Boulding a contract based on his performances, so be it. Robins deserves a chance just as much as Boulding does.
Some supporters have gone so far as to say that this has damaged the club's potential season ticket sales. However, Robins has assured fans that he has other irons in the fire.
Speaking to the club's official site he said: 'I know Michael and he is a player I tried to sign at Rotherham and he deserves this. We are still working hard and pursuing other targets and hopefully more things will start to come together soon.'
In all fairness, this sounds like a bit of nepotism on Mr Robins' part. It's fine to try and sign Boulding for Rotherham but we're Barnsley. We're two leagues higher and no offence to Rotherham, but we should be aiming higher.
Good luck to Boulding. I hope for his sake he earns a deal because it's a bold move in this day and age to put all your eggs in one basket.

Pleasant Harbor Public Boat Launch to Close Sept. 8-12
OLYMPIA – The public boat launch at Pleasant Harbor near Brinnon on Hood Canal will be closed Sept. 8-12 while the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) wraps up an improvement project at the site.
The launch was previously scheduled to close earlier in September but recent heavy rains made the ground too wet to work, said Penny Warren, WDFW regional lands supervisor. The launch will now be closed from 12:01 a.m. Monday, Sept. 8 to 11:59 p.m. Friday, Sept. 12.
The Pleasant Harbor launch is closing while WDFW completes a two-year improvement project at the site, Warren, WDFW regional lands supervisor.
"We're sorry to close the site down for these days, but it's exciting to put the final touches on this important project," Warren said.
Funded through a grant from the Washington State Recreation Conservation Office, the new amenities at the popular launch include a double boat ramp, a float, restroom, an asphalt road and paved parking. WDFW also widened the road to the site and installed new water retention ponds and lighting. Work crews will finish the road and parking lot during the closures in September.
Warren said two alternative launch sites are available nearby while Pleasant Harbor is under construction. The sites are located at Triton Cove State Park, which is approximately five miles south of Pleasant Harbor and the Quilcene launch site, which is approximately 15 miles north at the end of Linger Longer Road.

The Really Great AbbyShot Blog!
Reflections on Motherhood: An Outlandish Gift
Motherhood is a theme that can be found throughout the Outlander series, starting from book one up until the daily lines of book nine supplied to us by Diana Gabaldon. This is another reason why we fans have fallen in love with the series. Diana has inked out what we mom's know to be true. Here are three separate stories that have the common thread of a mother's love for her children. Written by Kendra Selby, Heidi Burke and Joi Acuña
What makes a mother? The obvious answer is a child. But what if that child is no longer of this earth? Just a few years ago, my best friend suffered a devastating loss when she was in the very late stages of pregnancy. The stillbirth of her son shook her life to the core. Just a few weeks afterwards, she celebrated her very first Mother's Day. The local Mexican restaurant was offering free fried ice cream in celebration of the day. Visiting with her own mother and grandmother my friend, Laken, again suffered heartbreak when the waiter proudly presented all the women at the table with their Mother's Day dessert. Everyone, that is, except for her. After all, how was the restaurant to know, that she too was a mother, albeit of an angel? Laken and I discussed this moment today, and even now 2 years later, with a one year old playing at her feet, the memory still brings tears.
So the question remains, are you still a mother even after the loss of a child? Absolutely. Neither time nor distance can ever erase the absolute love and devotion a woman will feel for her baby from the moment she knows he or she exists. As Diana Gabaldon so richly describes, you never lose them. You can't. At the moment of conception a mother's soul is born and that can never die. From beginning to end, every child is a part of their mother, a part so necessary and vital that we call it her heart.
So, Happy Mother's Day to ALL the moms out there. Whether you're the mother to an angel, an adult, or anything in between, just know that you are doing one of the most important jobs on Earth… loving someone forever and unconditionally.
♥ Written in loving memory of Jaxson Diesel Hamilton, born sleeping February 7, 2014 ♥
By Kendra Selby
How can you tell a woman is mother? She may not always carry the child in her own womb, but she probably has a purse full of cartoon bandaids, a drawer somewhere with a stash of baby teeth the Tooth Fairy "forgot", and a tie-dyed wardrobe that could only be produced by body fluids no person should ever be covered with. She most likely has a stack of faded drawings in the back of her closet topped with the remains of tissue paper roses she swore were the best Mother's Day gift ever (given along with a bottle of cheap cologne, that every time she wore, people complained about smelling wet sheep). We mothers are easily identifiable by the purple bags we wear under our eyes that go smashingly with the purple bruises on our legs from being kicked by a toddler having a temper tantrum. (and people wonder why we just want some "me time").
A mother's "me time" is often those two minutes of peace we get upon closing the bathroom door, before all hell breaks loose on the other side. I just want to sit down for an hour, undisturbed, read some Outlander and pretend I'm Claire (oh, how I'd love to fall through some stones right about now!). *insert big dramatic sigh here*
But now, the only Claire I'm channeling, is her yelling "Jesus H. Roosevelt Christ!" as I catch my son giving the dog a haircut on the living room rug.
So, to all the mothers out there, whether you're a step-mother, adoptive mother, foster mother, or grandmother, Happy Mother's Day! May you get more than 2 minutes peace in the loo and perfume that doesn't stink...too much. ?
By Heidi Burke
"I have noticed," she said slowly, "that time doesn't really exist for mothers, with regard to their children. It does not matter greatly how old the child is-in the blink of an eye, the mother can see the child again as it was when it was born, when it learned to walk, as it was at any age-at any time, even when the child is fully grown and a parent itself."
Mothers don't need stones to time travel. As Diana Gabaldon beautifully writes in her third novel, Voyager. Having four daughters these words resonate with me daily however those words have a special meaning this year. Two distinct moments have fluttered into my life recently. The first being a drive home from the car mechanics garage. My oldest daughter was following me in her car. We were about to cross over this long bridge and I glanced in my rear view mirror to check on her. Imagine my surprise when I saw the head of a small five year old peering over the steering wheel. She must have had the music on because that precious head was rhythmically bobbing away. I didn't tell her I teared up a bit but I spent the rest of the drive home glancing into that memory book of a mirror. The second moment is upon me because my oldest is preparing for graduation in less than a month. It's a crazy thought, I just taught her how to say tree two days ago on the balcony of our first apartment. She had green popsicle syrup running down her chubby arm insisting that the popsicle was also a green "twee" and now that arm will be extended to receive a diploma. I'm sure the tears will flow that day because they are spilling over as I write this and that precious 17 year old head is laying next to me. Happy Mother's day to every mother that continually without exhaustion exudes love to her children, those that are here and those that are beyond the stones.
By Joi Acuña

Great day at Collaborate today, some might call it action packed…
Participated in a number of BIP sessions today regarding non-Oracle EBS applications (PeopleSoft and JDE) as well as a great session by Steven Feuerstein on PL/SQL exception handling.
The real news of the day is that we officially launched DataZing during the Innovation Hour (where we won the audience vote) here at Collaborate. So what is DataZing? Essentially it is a tool that will facilitate the movement and processing of data across all of the different systems in your environment. What's great is that everything is configured and managed within Oracle EBS. So all of those custom scripts your UNIX guys have to write and maintain to move data can be replaced with an easy to maintain, standard interface.
Base functionality is this…
Step 1: Poll for files either locally or remotely. (FTP/SFTP/Local)
Step 2: Once data is found or NOT found, send notifications to your users alerting them to what is going on.
Step 3: If data is found, determine if DataZing should actually process it…. Maybe you do not want to process any data that shows up after 4:00 on Fridays? Or probably, more applicable, do not process DUPLICATE data!
Step 4: Finally and most importantly. Process the data… Submit a concurrent request, push the information to an archiving system, email someone the information, etc…
Pretty simple right? The great thing is that all of this is configured within Oracle EBS. If a FTP password changes, just fire up a form instead of tracking down a UNIX admin. Puts you in control vs. having to wait on others to make changes. Check out our website additional info.
So far we are getting some great responses and we are getting our early adopters ramped up as we speak. If you're at Collaborate, stop by and say hi, I'm at booth 2225… I have free stuff to give you!

WAXHAW – A newly completed development plan for the Providence Road/N.C. 16 corridor recommends adding secondary roads off Providence to alleviate traffic on the major thoroughfare.
Monica Holmes and her team from the Lawrence Group have spent the last 18 months working with commissioners and residents in Waxhaw to plan for future development and population growth in different areas of town.
Their latest plan, which focuses on the Providence corridor from Waxhaw Highway to Bonds Grove Church Road, recommends adding connector roads to cut down on the number of trips residents take onto Providence. The additional infrastructure would allow people to run daily errands, like taking their children to school and shopping, without having to contribute to the most congested areas of town.
The plan, like the others in downtown Waxhaw and the surrounding areas, is not set in stone and only acts as a guideline for the board of commissioners and town staff as they move forward.
"(We spent our time) looking at these roads to solve one of the large issues in Waxhaw, and that is transportation," Holmes said. "… If things are connected you are able to get (to multiple locations in the town) without having to go on (N.C.) 16."
Many developments and shopping centers in Waxhaw have one way in and one way out, which is something the town should try to avoid for future projects to spread traffic around, according to Holmes.
The Lawrence Group also accounted the future widening of Providence Road into their plans, although no date for the widening has been set at this point. As the widening occurs, Waxhaw leaders should work with the North Carolina Department of Transportation to bring easy methods of travel for bikes, transit and pedestrians to the community, Holmes said.
"If you want something different from the NCDOT (standard) you need to get your plan in place now. …They are willing to work with you," she said.
Another main focus of the plan is land currently zoned for commercial development that fell to the wayside when the economy tanked in 2007. Much of the area along Providence zoned for commercial has been developed partially or not at all, but developers can start those projects at any time after receiving permits. Rezoning and use issues have already been resolved, but could come back up if developers try to change what projects would go on their land post-recession.
Holmes said her team doesn't see many of the proposed developments happening any time soon, and in some cases not at all.
"We have heard from people that you are open to diversity," Holmes said in regards to questions about future development including commercial development, residential development and even apartment complexes and town homes in the area. "We really see the biggest opportunity in senior living, apartments and higher density along the corridor," she added.
With the plan complete, Holmes said it's time for Waxhaw leaders to update the five-year comprehensive plan, which the state requires towns update every five years. This N.C. 16 plan lays the groundwork for them to do just that.

Avi to iMovie Converter
Many video cameras in the market output videos in AVI format, so there is necessary to know some information about AVI. Audio Video Interleaved (AVI) is a very common video format, it often compressed with different codecs like DivX, Xvid and 3IVx. For that reason two AVI videos may look the same outside but different inside, and that brought us lots of problems when import AVI to iMovie for editing.
When you trying to import AVI to iMovie for editing, you may come across one of the problems below: cannot import video to iMovie, nothing shows up on screen, get no sound or no image after transfer AVI video to iMovie, etc. That is really painful and boring, but the problem is not so hard to beat down, there is something we can do to deal with it. And next I will tell you how to import AVI to iMovie on Mac.
The reason why problems mentioned above occurred is iMovie only reads AVI that both the video and audio compressed using the codec iMovie can recognize. As we know the reason, the problem is not hard to deal with, all you need to do is downloading AVI to IMovie Converter for Mac from our website and converting AVI to iMovie friendly video format like MOV, MP4 or M4V, after that you can freely transfer your video to iMovie for editing.
Our Mac AVI to iMovie Converter is compatible with Mac OS X including Snow Leopard and Lion. Fast convert speed and without visual quality loss is our converter's prominent feature. And on the other side AVI to iMovie Converter on Mac also has the function of simple video editing, just like extracting music from video to MP3, cropping unwanted image, splitting a video into several parts, merging several video into one,etc.
How to convert avi files to iMovie .mov and import avi into iMovie on Mac?
Install and run AVI to iMovie Converter Mac, click add button or drag the video file to the program directly.
Select "iMovie" as the output format in the format list. The program has already optimized the video settings for iMovie. The output videos could looks great on iMovie.

Finding the right direction in life, isn't something that just "happens to you."
It's something you create.
Our work together has transformed my life. By our second session, I experienced tangible results that benefited my life more than a year of working with a traditional Western Therapist. With the tools I have learned, I am morphing my life to the best possible reality.
This system of astrology is an extremely useful process that allows me to grow my awareness of these forces and empowers me to work with them more consciously.
Our work together gave me such a clear way to understand how to use my innate gifts more effectively, what blocks me and how to become more fulfilled in my life. I have and would recommend this work to anyone looking to further the fulfillment they seek in their personal and professional lives.
Insight gained in our work together has been enormously helpful in improving my life experience and in advancing my career. In fact, each session seems to bring a spark of surprising, new self-knowledge, clearing away blockages that have been barring my progression and enabling me to reach long-held goals that had previously seemed beyond my grasp.
Thanks again for your powerful insight and wisdom. Our time together had so much that was relevant for me.
Thank you so, SOOO much for the consultation! That was incredibly insightful, helpful, and validating. Our time together was such a gift.
Working together I have taken big leaps outside my comfort zone and redirected my focus to what is true for me. The payoff has been huge. I am forever grateful.
Working together has led to invaluable growth, the greatest of which is confidence in my purpose. You have my sincere gratitude.
PMITRD offers stellar coaching by remarkable people. Shortly after we started working together I unexpectedly lost my job. Instead of torpedoing down the rabbit hole of overwhelm and fear, coaching brought great clarity and perspective to the situation I was experiencing. I can't recommend them highly enough if you are seeking a more vibrant and purposeful life. They are just that good.

New Canaan baseball field improvement project a homerun
Published 4:49 pm, Thursday, May 23, 2013
A major improvement to the baseball fields at Waveny Park received the green light from town officials last week, at no cost to taxpayers.
Of the three renovated fields, one will be made of artificial turf and include modern lighting, dugouts, bleachers, and batting cages along each foul line.
"We're thrilled about how much use we're going to get out of this field for all different ages," Patrick Edmonds, who represented New Canaan Baseball at the meetings of the boards of selectmen and finance May 7. "Because it's lit, we're going to be able to use the turf field more."
Funding for the improvements, which are expected to cost $1.8 million, will be privately raised by parents of children involved in New Canaan Baseball, which will also establish a fund for the replacement of the turf in about 10 years. There won't be any cost to the town for maintenance either, as the artificial turf will not require cutting or watering, and could actually help the town save on maintenance costs.
Edmonds said the group is hoping to have all the money raised by the end of the summer, begin work at the end of August or beginning of September, and be finished by early spring in time for the 2014 baseball season.
The park will become the new home for New Canaan High School's varsity team during its season and for New Canaan Baseball the rest of the time.

Edmonds was asked at both meetings whether the improvements were for baseball only or would benefit girls' softball as well. He was adamant that the girls' softball teams were on board for the project.
"I've spoken to (NCHS softball coach) Danielle Simoneau about this, and she is thrilled that she'll have dugouts with covers and batting cages," Edmonds told the selectmen. "Presently at this time, the water tower field is just a disaster. This is such a dramatic improvement for the girls."

Earlier today Noisey dropped this fresh ass article on why our music and scene are rightfully suited for the Halloween season. Check it out below
October. The transformational month when the leaves start to turn, the weather starts to fade and everything from lattes to condoms become spiced with pumpkin. While the vast majority of people choose to dabble in a few spooky flicks, gorge on candy and play dress up for Halloween, the Season of the Pumpkin is the culmination of the calendar year in the lives of Juggalos.
Blessed with an array of Halloween themed events, songs, and merchandise, no other musical fanbase can lay claim to an entire month's worth of revelry and respite from normal life. Now allow me to break it down for you why the world of Blaze, Twiztid, ICP and the entire Psychopathic Fam-i-ly is truly Halloween's greatest gift. So if you're on the fence about being down with the clown till' you're dead in the ground….read on.
Twenty years ago ICP released a Halloween song that forever changed the seasonal music game. Up until this point, listeners were giving themselves gooseflesh with Halloween hits like Bobby "Boris" Pickett & The Crypt Keeper's "Monster Mash" and Warren Zevon's "Werewolves of London". Along came the Wicked Clowns in 1994 with "Dead Pumpkins", a truly terrifying tale about a deranged and perverted old man who keeps jack-o-lanterns made out of human head's on his front porch because he simply doesn't give a fuck. Combining old-school turntable scratching with primitive, nefarious rap metal production and lyrics that are both poetically horrific and hilariously juvenile, ICP brought horror music to newfound heights with "Dead Pumpkins." As Violent J eloquently raps in the first and second verses:
"Open your bag and I give you my treat / Crusty yellow toes off a dead woman's feet / Take me by the hand and I lead you down stairs / And that little Jimmy is were you'll spend the next seven years"
"All year round but I love my Halloween / You never get an apple or a purple jellybean / Droplets of chocolate a licorice snack / Instead you get a deep fried French poodle nutsack"

The roar of the engines is deafening as the hot rods careen past the stands. The Demon seems to be catching up with the Wizard, burning off the last of its fuel in a desperate attempt to cinch the victory for their team. He makes the turn, but just ahead is the ring of fire, a deadly jump that only the most skilled drivers can make. The Wizard shoots out into the open air and it's only a split second before the Demon is streaking up the ramp too. Praying as he nears the edge, yes he knows that this is ironic, the Demon sees that his tank is empty and lets fate decide. He flips out and… success! Into the final turn, and they're neck and neck, it's anybodies race. But out of nowhere, they couldn't have seen it coming, the anthropomorphic food combos in from that wicked final turn, and right into the winners circle.
Hot Rod Creeps is the final game in what I like to call Cryptozoic Games' "Awesome Art Trilogy" (I wrote about the other two parts of the trilogy earlier, you can check out those reviews here (Battle Wizards) and here (Food Fight)). Hot Rod Creeps is a fairly basic racing game with a whole lot of heart. It's one of those games that feels like it was made with love; love for both the subject matter and the gameplay ideals. I wouldn't go so far as to say the game is groundbreaking or really even very good, but it can be a fun way to spend a couple hours.
Before getting into actual gameplay, I have to mention that it's really obvious that the art of Ed Roth influenced this game's appearance quite heavily. The reference is so blatant that it's bordering on stylistic theft, but I can't condemn them for it because Ed Roth really did make shit that's awesome to look at and other people have been copying him for half a century. The whole "oversized cartoon monster in a hot rod" aesthetic that this game borrows from so profoundly is one of those things that people see once and can never unsee (nor would they want to).
That art style is omnipresent in the game. I love the way the artist [Dirk Eric Schulz] drew everything. It's great! I just wish there was more of it. Each racer's deck of cards only has 1 image of the racer itself in it, which is more than a little disappointing. They use that one image over and over again, twice on some cards in that deck (front and back). Don't let me get too down on the art just because of that… there is plenty of fun, over the top imagery when it comes to vehicle upgrades. If they had done just a few more angles on each racer then I'd have literally nothing to complain about with the art. Here are a few examples of those awesome upgrade card images.
Now that I've told you how much I love the art, let me tell you about my general ambivalence towards the game itself. The best part of the game is setting up the track, which you do before the game-proper even starts. That is a problem for a lot of reasons. Not least of which is that races can take between 5 minutes and an hour depending on how good/bad everyone's luck is. The game is so random that it's impossible to predict how things will go, strategy is limited to what cards you hold in your hand, and to top it off – half of the racers rely on luck based mechanics in addition to their luck based card drawing. All they do is flip cards off the top of their deck and hope for the right card. It's kind of stupid.
Taking a step back. Stopping myself from hyperventilating. Let me establish, in all caps, THIS ISN'T A SERIOUS GAME. You should not treat this like other racing games (this isn't Formula D). Whoever designed this game made something for the whole family, something that you *the professional gamer* can play along with your 5 year old niece, your 90 year old grandmother and your cousin that has severe ADHD. Nobody is going to have an innate advantage. It's super easy to pick up and play, and so long as you can read and count, you won't have a problem with the game mechanics.
Of course my favorite part, the track building, is actually the part of the game that has the most impact on how the rest of the round will play out. Simply because different racers have different strengths. The Underworld racer goes super fast, they absolutely dominate on straight-aways, while racers like The Aliens will do much better on tracks that curve a whole bunch. Building a track that is both fair and interesting is a real test, and the only aspect of the game that can be truly challenging.
This isn't a game for you to carry around with you to every meeting of your board game club (and not just because it's a giant box). Very few people are going to want to play this more than twice in a sitting. Don't think of that as a bad thing though… I feel like the less experience with the game people have, then the more likely it is that they'll not hate it. There was a certain point where I realized that I have very little control over my racer. I can make small decisions but it's all up to chance if those decisions work out for me or blow up in my face. In the early rounds though, I think most people will at least try to "do the right thing" strategically speaking. So long as the façade hasn't been shattered for them yet, I think just about anyone can enjoy the silly racing mechanics and ideas.
There's a lot of reasons to get the game, and a lot of reasons to pass it up. Kids will like this game because it's simple. Adults will be able to appreciate it for it's whimsical artwork and for being a game that no one can predict the outcome. Even though I have problems with much of the gameplay, it can still be a good way to occupy yourself for a short while. If you need a game that your whole family can play (up to six of you anyway) then you could do a whole lot worse than Hot Rod Creeps… but you could do better too.

Johnny Manziel battles waves as he works toward his next Heisman (Photo)
For all you young quarterbacks out there aspiring to be a Heisman Trophy winner, find yourself a good beach, a good trainer and some waves.
Texas A&M quarterback Johnny Manziel, the first freshman to win the Heisman Trophy, posted a picture on Instagram of his beach workout with trainer George Whitfield in California.It can't be easy to keep your balance and your concentration with a wave bearing down on you.
This is the second consecutive season Manziel is working with Whitfield. Makes sense, since last year's workouts took him from spring backup to Heisman winner.
After watching Manziel's performance last year, it's easy to see how this particular drill played into Manziel's success. During his 43 regular season touchdowns, there were multiple instances where Manziel used exceptional balance to either break tackles and run for scores, or escape defenders to find his receivers downfield.
Incredible beach workout this AM with @jmanziel2 with a visit from 'The Voice of College Football' @kirkherbstreit twitter.com/georgewhitfiel…
— George Whitfield Jr. (@georgewhitfield) May 16, 2013
Manziel's workouts have become popular. Whitfield posted pics on his Instagram of several younger quarterbacks doing similar drills and ESPN analyst Kirk Herbstreit was also on the beach, no doubt gathering intel for a College Football Gameday piece.

New seasons fixtures released
One of the days that every fan looks forward to is almost upon us. This day, the day when the fixtures for the coming season are revealed - and that day is Thursday.
Due to the way in which football is now run in this country - basically for money and as much of it as possible - Vital Pompey will not be able to publish a full list of fixtures for the 2007/08 season when they are released, however I will be able to say who we open and finish the season against. I will also link to the Pompey site when they are released so we can see this full list and still discuss them here.
Since the 2002/03 season we have started at home, so we must surely be due an away start - not that I will be unhappy with another home start of course! In this time we have only lost once, this being the 2-0 defeat to Spurs in the 2005/06 season.
2002/03 saw us start our championship winning season in Division One with a 2-0 win over Forest, 2003/04 - our first ever Premiership game and a 2-1 win over Villa. 2004/05 saw a 1-1 with Birmingham, 2005/06 the defeat to Spurs and last season, 2006/07 the 3-0 win over Blackburn.

GARRY PARKER reckons Neil Lennon will make Celtic long-term fixtures within Europe's elite if he holds on to his star assets.
The Parkhead coach believes his gaffer is doing a superb job in Glasgow's East End and insists he ranks right up there among his own ex-gaffer's such as Brian Clough and Martin O'Neill.
Lennon has built a superb young side at Parkhead and has led them into the last 16 of the Champions League.
His achievements are being noted across Europe but Parker said: "He's got Celtic in his blood. It's his club isn't it?
"Neil's doing what he wants to do. He wants to win the league and qualify for the Champions League as often as he can.
"And he wants to win as much as he can. It would take an awful lot for him to leave.
"If a huge club came in for him I think he'd consider it but not until he's completed the job he wants to do here.
"He's happy where he is and just wants to make Celtic big in Europe."
Celtic assistant Garry Parker: I've worked with Clough & O'Neill - Neil Lennon can be just as good
Parker, though, has warned Lennon will need the right tools to maintain his work.
Having developed his current squad, the boss is now facing big-money interest in the likes of Gary Hooper, Victor Wanyama, Beram Kayal and Fraser Forster.
Parker added: "If we have to sell we're back to square one again.
"We've built up such a good team here, we want to keep them together.
"They might want to move down to England, we don't know.
"Things have worked out and we want to keep the team together.
"I know it might not be up to Lenny at the end of the day but it would be a shame to lose them.
"It's all right selling a player but you need money to replace him."
