(Critical Survey of Literature for Students)
Catherine, Agnes, and Rose Leyburn, sisters living in a remote valley in Westmoreland, in England's Lake District, learn of the imminent arrival of Robert Elsmere, a young Anglican clergyman coming to visit his uncle and aunt before he assumes responsibility for a parish in southern England. Once he meets the Leyburns, Robert is quickly drawn to Catherine's seriousness and spirituality. Catherine resists her own attraction to Robert, having promised her deceased father to remain in Westmoreland and devote herself to her mother and sisters and to preserving the centrality of religion in their lives. Rose, a talented violinist, is already trying to break away to study music, but Catherine thinks music frivolous. Catherine is grateful when Robert persuades her to treat Rose's interests more sympathetically, but she feels she has to break off her relationship with him. She tells him that she cannot desert her family and had resolves to continue her life in Westmoreland. Her resolve is shaken when her mother, learning of her interest in Robert from Robert's matchmaking aunt, assures Catherine that she would be pleased with the match. Catherine feels her life's purpose is undermined. On a stormy evening, she attends the deathbed of a woman who bore an illegitimate child. Robert follows her and persuades her to marry him, promising that together they can live a life dedicated to God and to helping others.
This promise bears out as the Elsmeres enthusiastically embark on their work with Robert's new parishioners at Murewell, in Surrey. At the end of their first year, though, Catherine is troubled by Rose's interest in the disillusioned Edward Langham, a man with no sympathy for religious belief. Langham and Rose hope briefly that she might rouse him from the despair of his solitary, empty life, but Langham, believing himself unable to change, departs suddenly. Rose is embarrassed to have shown her interest in him.
A more serious crisis develops when Robert becomes friendly with Squire Wendover, the local large landowner and a scholar famous for his skeptical views of Christianity. Robert...

Have a look on the dashboard sticker of this special Audi TT which was caught on some spy shots during winter testing: should be confirmation enough that an Audi TT diesel is in the works! Finally, our dreams come true. It's definitely a match made in heaven, the agility of the Audi TT and the torque of a diesel engine. Great news!
Audi engineers have now officially confirmed the fact that the TT will get an TDI engine. Due to a sticker on the central console with the inscription Achtung diesel-Fzg (Attention diesel version). Now it is clear that Audi will get the 2.0 liter TDI engine delivering 170 bhp from the Passat and the Audi A4 but it could also get the 235 bhp 3.0 liter that is currently used by the new A5 coupe.

Don't lose your biggest assets to the next technological gimmick.
Whether it's a hacker scanning your network for the source code of your next big game, a guy wearing Google Glass into a movie theater, or a script that was leaked online, people are hungry to get their hands on your work—and your intellectual property. And as an entertainment company, you need to protect your IP (games, copyrights, trademarks, media, etc.)—your biggest assets.
While there are many different solutions to protect your critical content (from take down requests on search engines, to sharing scripts only on iPads) people can—and will—go to extremes to circumvent these measures to get their hands on your IP.

The National Baseball Congress World Series was first played in 1935. However, the idea came about a few years prior when Wichita sporting goods salesman, Hap Dumont, formed the idea of creating a National Baseball Congress State Tournament. The idea was conceived after watching a Sunday baseball game between circus clowns and local firemen.
Island Park stood in the middle of the Arkansas River, which was where the first tournament was played in 1931. After making a few bucks on the event, Dumont expanded it over the next few years, until a cigarette was left in the bleachers, burning it to the ground.
Following the accident, Dumont formulated the idea that if the city of Wichita would build a new stadium, he would host a national semi-pro tournament, hoping to draw teams from coast to coast. The city built the stadium on the west bank just south of the old park and named it after Wichita pioneer Robert Lawrence.
Satchel Paige was considered the greatest pitcher of that era and in 1935, Dumont offered him an impressive sum of $1,000 to bring his touring team from Bismarck, N.D., to compete in the first NBC tournament. Dumont did not have the money when he made the offer, but he believed he would make it at the gate.
Paige's pitching prowess proved to be true as he struck out 60 batters and won four games–a record that still stands today. Dumont ended up making enough money to pay Paige, as well as all of the bills.
The tournament was a huge success from the beginning. The Sporting News, baseball's Bible of the day, gave the event significant coverage. Thus, the national tournament was born.
Thousands of young prospects and ex-major leaguers have played in the tournament, which is still held in the stadium Hap helped build. In the first few decades, most of the teams were either barnstorming semi-pro clubs or town teams sponsored by local factories. The typical star was an ex-professional, and many of the players had also played major league ball.
As a result of Hap's success over the last 82 years, the NBC has helped produce over 800 professional players. The tournament has become a widespread tradition within the city of Wichita, gaining popularity across the country.

OPINION: What does free speech mean to people in the U.S., anyway?
March 16th, 2017 | Carey Restino
Freedom of speech is one of those human rights that we all take for granted, perhaps more than any other, especially when it comes to the right to discuss, disagree and protest the policies that govern our lives.
In the United States, that right is guaranteed in the 1791 amendment to the Bill of Rights, later called the First Amendment, which protects, in a single sentence, the right to free exercise of religion, without government interference, the right to free speech, free press, peaceful protests, and the right to tell government what you think of them. That's a weighty sentence, to be sure, but in large part, it has become as interwoven into American culture as "The Star-Spangled Banner."
Especially at a small-town level, our political culture allows anyone to testify in opposition or support to policies and be heard, no matter who they are, from prominent businessmen to those bordering on homelessness. It is given to all ages, races, demographics and genders.
That right is not removed if the opinion in question is irrelevant, illogical or a full-blown rant. Attend city council meetings on a regular basis and you will see and hear it all.
But what about elected officials? Do they have the same rights or does their seat on a governing body make mute their personal voice? The courts, by and large, say that elected officials do, in fact, have a right to self-expression, even if that expression is ill advised, reactive, and inflammatory.
For the most part, you can apply common sense to this issue. As individuals, elected officials are simply human beings. They can speak their mind all they want, rant about policies and fellow politicians, post memes on Facebook or Tweet late-night thoughts or whatever forum they want to use to get on their soapbox. Freedom of speech is only curtailed among elected officials if they are somehow using their position, or their vote, to unduly influence public process, or advocate for something in which they have a vested interest.
Some rulings by the U.S. Supreme Court, in fact, have said that elected officials have a mandate to inform the public about their position on issues, so that voters can make educated, informed decisions. So one must question any restrictions to the freedom of speech of elected officials, either through legal restrictions or through threats to their position as an elected official.
Newspapers have essentially served as a bulletin board for free speech, printing letters to the editor, opinion columns and stories where journalists take care to get comments from both sides of controversial issues whenever possible. Sometimes, that capacity is curtailed, however, by gag orders on public or private workers, and especially, by fears of litigation or threats to their position as an elected official.
While one might assume that limiting speech in certain situations would allow for the control of public opinion, that is not typically the case.
A lack of information generally leads to the spread of misinformation, which in many cases is more damaging than the real facts might have been in the first place. While providing clear information doesn't stop those prone to conspiracy theories from going down those rabbit holes, the simple fact is that most of us seek out fact-based information when making a decision.
What the founding fathers of the United States knew, and what anyone following public reaction to issues knows is that more information is always better than less, even if it is a messy, disjointed process.
The right to free speech for everyone is the cornerstone of our democracy, and any attempt to control or restrict that right, even if it is wrapped in the premise of promoting peace or protecting public interests, is dangerous.

Microsoft renames SQL Server release, adds data services

bevy of new data management services.
At TechEd 2009, Microsoft said it will re-label the next major release of SQL Server, which was expected to be SQL Server 2010, as SQL Server 2008 R2. The product had previously gone under the code name Kilimanjaro. A Community Technical Preview (CTP) for the release is promised for the second half of 2009.
New master data services will go into the release based on technology from Stratature, a data management company Microsoft acquired in 2007, said Ward Ralston, a Microsoft group product manager. These services "will let you manage data assets forcing quality rule, standards and [they] also let you define workflow around changes and manage hierarchy," Ralston said.
Centralized management will make it easier to run multiple servers and multiple instances of SQL and identify consolidation opportunities, he said. Microsoft has also upped the number of logical processors in SQL Server from the expected 64 to 256 to take advantage of multi-core processors. He would not comment on how that capability will be packaged or priced.
Some see both the renaming of the upcoming database and the upping of its logical processor support as a reaction to Oracle's acquisition of Sun. Even skeptics say that the combination could bolster Oracle's position atop the enterprise database heap.
Adding support for more logical processors "is a good move. They are heading off stuff that will come out of the Snoracle deal — and I will take attribution for that term," said George Brown, president of Database Solutions Inc., in Bala Cynwyd, Pa.
SQL Server has made good headway against Oracle but still needs credibility at the very highest end and in the biggest companies, Brown said.

October's Most Moronic...and Counting
Maybe it's because Halloween arrives at the end of the month, but the weird, wild and wacky have been in full force this October. Is the change in weather bringing about a change in pop culture? Did summer make us dumber? If so, how long before we get our brains back from the zombies munching on them over in the corner? Here, then, is just a taste of who I deem to be October's Most Moronic … so far.
Michael Jackson
The Moronic Part: On October 27th, Michael Jackson will rise from the grave for a documentary called This Is It (working titles included This Is Our Way of Making Our Money Back), which will feature a whole ton of otherwise worthless footage of Jackson rehearsing for the London concert series that never happened.
Hollywood Impact: Concert promoter AEG is estimating the film to gross a whopping $250 million in only five days. I don't know what they're smokin', but I'll take some.
Victim(s): The hard-earned cash in your wallet. A Jackson CD on iTunes will be cheaper and it won't force you to wear 3-D glasses.
The Twilight Numerologist
The Moronic Part: Numerologist Glynis McCants spends way too much time adding up the numbers in the Twilight release dates, insisting that they're the reason people are so drawn to the movies, not a shirtless Robert Pattinson.
Hollywood Impact: Look for some sleazy Hollywood movie producer to hire McCants for viral videos foretelling successful release dates for Saw 17 and Paul Blart: Yup, He's Still a Mall Cop.
Victim(s): You, for wasting your time watching that video. You know you did.
Balloon Boy
The Moronic Part: In an attempt to land their own reality show or a movie or book deal, a family in Colorado clowned the entire country when they claimed their young son accidentally took off in their (actually boy-free) homemade weather balloon, which news cameras followed for hours.
Hollywood Impact: Once these idiotic parents are brought up on charges, look for some sleazy Hollywood agent to try to get them their much sought-after reality TV show deal. Or, hey, maybe a TV movie of the week starring … the Jonas brothers?
Victim(s): Balloons … no one will ever be able to hold one again without hearing at least one stupid Balloon Boy reference.
Bronson Pinchot
The Moronic Part: In an attempt to claw his way back into America's consciousness for the first time since that TV show I can't remember the name of (no, 2001's direct-to-DVD sequel Lady and the Tramp II: Scamp's Adventure doesn't count), Bronson Pinchot randomly decided to pull a page from Dustin Diamond's book and offend almost every big-name actor he's ever worked with (to what, let people know he's worked with big-name actors?) in an interview with the A.V. Club. Not only did he call Tom Cruise extremely homophobic, but Denzel Washington was "so vile" and Bette Midler was "a bitch."
Hollywood Impact: Aside from the fact that Mr. Pinchot's days of working with Tom Cruise, Denzel Washington and Bette Midler are lonnnng gone, one imagines he's still waiting for that Lady and the Tramp 3 direct-to-DVD deal to land on his doorstep right about … never.
Victim(s): Members of the Beverly Hills Cop fanclub ("He was so cute and funny in that movie!" cried AxelFoleyFan789)
Which one of these people is in the movie Smurfs: The Lost Village?

Do opposites attract?
What makes one person attractive to another? Do we choose mates that are similar to ourselves, or do we need differences to ignite the romantic spark? Which types fit best with which other types? This page shows some of my research into this question.
The table below shows the frequency of all 81
combinations of Enneagram-type marriages. There are 457 couples in this
study. Some combinations are strikingly more common than chance, and are
highlighted in red (1 or 2 standard deviations above chance).
Some combinations are much rarer than expected by chance, and these are shaded
in gray.
Table of Enneagram Marriage Frequencies
Note: because the color indicates frequency relative to chance, some red or pink cells may be numerically smaller than cells not highlighted.
Major findings:
1. Marriage patterns are not random. For example, of all female 8s, 37% of them married male 9s, even though only 19% of all men were 9s. There are a lot of such pairings that happen at far above chance levels.
2. Same-type marriages are rare, occurring two times less often than expected by chance. "Birds of a feather" may flock together as friends, but apparently not in marriage. An interesting exception appears to be double-4 marriages, the only double-type pair to occur more often than chance (it is only 1/2 standard deviation above chance, so it is not colored in the above table).
3. Men and women choose very different personalities for their mates. Male 9s with female 4s are common (16 couples), while male 4s with female 9s are extremely rare (2 couples). Female 8s preferred male 9s, whereas Male 8s preferred 2s and 6s.
4. People marry along a line of integration 38% more often than chance. For example, 7-1 and 3-6 marriages were common, as were male 2s-female 4s, male 3s-female 9s, and several other such combinations.
5. "Gut" types (8, 9, and 1) neither preferred nor avoided other "gut" types, and the same was true for heart and thinking types.
6. Although people avoided marrying their own types, they did not show any avoidance of adjacent (wing) types. A preference for wing types was not seen either.
7. The 6 most common type pairings are:
pairs: male 8, female 2
It is notable that 9+4 marriages were among the most common, given the reputation of this combination for stormy volatility. It should be noticed that this list is ranked purely by numerical counts, not by its frequency relative to chance. Hence, it is skewed toward the more common types (9s and 6s).
Future questions:
1. How does the personality of marriage partners affect their happiness, personal growth, and longevity? These answers could be very relevant to marriage counselors.
2. The data on this page are reported
by the couples themselves, or their children, and are not verified by an
objective test. Unfortunately, even the best available Enneagram tests
may have only limited accuracy (see my comparison
of Enneagram tests). Development of better tests is critical for
progress in Enneagram research.
Overall distribution of types:
If types were distributed by chance, one
would expect each type to be about 1/9 = 11% of the population. This is
clearly not the case, as we see in the table below. 9s are somewhat more
than 11% of the population, while 3s are less, particularly among women.
These gender differences are very consistent with what has been reported
previously by Dora and Ted Levinson (Enneagram Monthly, Sept. 1998).

31 miles and stomach issues.
Guess I'll have to watch what I eat when I start to put the miles on. Or something.:-)
Chronicles of an overweight endurance athlete.
Ooooh, there really is a name for this lovely issue: RBS - Runners Bowel Syndrome. Pleasant, I know. One of my running buddies (Micheline) suffers from the same. I count my blessings EVERY run that I dont have that issue.
GREAT mileage week!
Fortunately, I don't have it every time I do a long run, though my GI tract does usually at least protest a little bit.

What is the largest size you or your party have blown up from the jpegs? It sounds like they are more than sufficient to work with. If I could get the raw format, I was also going to do some creative things with them but I am sure I wouldn't do it to many. I think I probably should go for numbers so I make sure I get what I want.
How did you let him know what kind of photos you wanted? I am putting a bunch of samples in a document and bring him a printed example (HA!, some of them are his! HAHAHA!!)
Eureaka, I started asking for him several months ago. They told me back then they put in a request to the photography department. I didn't find out for sure that I had been assigned David till a couple weeks ago.
Nina, I wasn't expecting it to be that miserable but I have heard from my boss that just went and several other people that have been there this time of year to move it inside. I think we will probably do that but I am not going to make the final decision until we are there. Tracy even stated that her cake started melting and her wedding was over a month ago. If we get inside and decide after the dancing begins it isn't very exciting, we may just take our ipod outside and find a spot by a pool to party down! HA!! We are taking our laptop and Bose Ipod docking station with us.
Wow, the days are flying by now. I hope that once we get there, time slows down a little bit so we can really enjoy ourselves and feel like we had a little bit of a vacation.
I made a list of pictures that I wanted and had a family member give it to him. The largest size we have blown something up is 8x10. From what I understand about jpeg. you can pretty much do anything to them.
Photographers are artists...whether they speak English or not - so I let him do his thing after I got the shots I wanted...and they turned out great.
Here is the link to my pictures - its on shutterfly....when you view them as a slide show they get a little blurry and distorted...so just to get some ideas I would click on the thumbnails. My favorites are of me standing on the wall looking at the ocean...and Noah standing below me. They are very artsy - but cool looking!! Make a note of that Everyone loves them!!!
A few notes - ignore the cheezy ones of my husband up my dress with his hands and resting his face on my back....haha, he would be horrified if he knew I posted these. Those are the ones that are not really me...and I had to kind of cut him off - and tell him I don't really like ones like that and he went back to more classic ones. Most of all - just communicate with him and he will do what you want.
I know I will probably get comments about my hair...I actually did not get it done in the salon..my sister is a hair dresser so I lucked out. I did my own make-up because I am super picky...I just went and bought new stuff at MAC and didn't use any of it until the day of the wedding.
We had a very small wedding - just family....hope you enjoy!
If you have problems viewing...let me know - Ill send you another link.

Juventus captain Alessandro Del Piero says his team must keep fighting if they are to finish the season on a high.
Sunday's stalemate with Fiorentina appears to have put paid to Juventus' chances of qualifying for the Champions League.
However, Del Piero claims Juventus must continue to look forward in the remaining five games of the season.
"It's useless to hide it: If we were concentrating only on the race for fourth place, the results on Sunday would be considered as having penalised our ambitions.
"But in reality you can't reduce it to all that because we have always said that we are looking at it on a game-by-game basis until the end of the season. Then we'll do our calculations.
"Anyway we have to go forward and end the season as well as possible without forgetting that we have won three of our last four games and drawn the other.
"That doesn't take away from the fact that we are not satisfied with the point that we got in Florence and that we wanted to win."

Virat Kohli knows what's good for the team and himself: MS Dhoni
Lauding Virat Kohli for agreeing to drop a rung in the batting order for the team's sake, Indian skipper said the strategy used in the second ODI against the West Indies here could be continued as the batsman adjusted well
New Delhi: Lauding Virat Kohli for agreeing to drop a rung in the batting order for the team's sake, Indian skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni said the strategy used in the second ODI against the West Indies here could be continued as the batsman adjusted well to the change.
MS Dhoni
Kohli (62), who registered his 31st ODI fifty to return to form, stitched a crucial 105-run fourth-wicket partnership with Suresh Raina (62) to help India put up a respectable 263 for seven in 50 overs. The hosts eventually levelled the five-match series 1-1 by winning the match by 48 runs.
"Kohli is very experienced and he knows what the team wants. We were able to convince him to bat down the order and he understood that it's good for the team and himself. We have to look at everything," said Dhoni in the post-match press conference at Feroz Shah Kotla on Saturday.
"He is a kind of player who scores at a brisk pace. If someone is doing well at No 3 and Virat is comfortable at No 4 then why not. Let's go with it. But it was the first time, so we will see," he added.

Ambati Rayudu, who took Kohli's place at No 3, made a valuable 32 after India lost their openers early on a slow-paced Kotla wicket. Dhoni, who also contributed with an unbeaten 51, was happy with the batting order.
Disrupt strategy
"I believe it's good for the team to have your most experienced players bat at No 5, 6 and 7. And yes it helps Virat to change his slot and have the cushion of runs behind him.
It was a win-win situation as Rayudu (Ambati) also got more balls to settle down. It also disrupts the strategy of the opposition team. So everything fell into place," said Dhoni.
The batsmen did their job but the bowlers were not far behind. Chasing 264 for a win, West Indies were cruising at 170 for two when Man of the Match Mohd Shami, who registered his career-best figures of 4-36, got the dangerous Dwayne Smith (97) back in the pavilion. Soon leg-spinner Amit Mishra (2-40) and Ravindra Jadeja (3-44) also swung into action.

Heat vs. Pacers: NBA Playoffs Finally Get Their Public IntrigueMay 23, 2012
If the years of third-place status haven't made it abundantly clear, basketball itself isn't enough to capture our nation's attention.
Without the violence (ahem, physicality) of football or the mystique of baseball, the NBA is relegated as a semi-distant third—far from a niche sport, but perhaps equally far from the incomprehensible economic heights of the NFL.
The NBA's TV numbers are growing and interest is generally high during points of particular intrigue (the playoffs, All-Star Weekend, etc.), but nothing puts a damper on such thrilling festivities like a string of unfortunate injuries.
Derrick Rose—one of the league's most charismatic and likable stars—was stolen from the postseason limelight in his first playoff game of the year. The ever-popular Knicks were devastated by injury before and during their short playoff stint. Chris Bosh, however ridiculed he might be, was ruled out of the Eastern Conference semifinals, making the Miami Heat less competitive (and less intriguing) in the process.
These playoffs needed some kind of spark—not to hold the interest of serious basketball fans, who already tune in nightly for regular displays of superhuman athleticism, crisp offense, and (in the worst cases) grind-it-out attrition, but to have some allure to those not terribly interested in basketball for basketball's sake.
Well, to those who demand some extracurricular activity to go along with such high-quality gamesmanship, these playoffs now have their own series of ridiculous subplots.
Tuesday night's game between the Miami Heat and Indiana Pacers not only reinforced how capable this Heat team truly is (even without Bosh) of dominating their opposition, but it escalated the physical intrigue of a testy series to previously unseen levels.
Tyler Hansbrough sent Dwyane Wade to the floor. Udonis Haslem retaliated with a flagrant foul of his own. Danny Granger persisted in his confrontational yapping. Dexter Pittman sent Lance Stephenson reeling. Basketball fans got a bit more WWE than they bargained for, but the most casual of viewers— those merely tuning in to what they believe to be event television—found a much-needed carrot.
It would be fantastic if more people could appreciate such a beautiful display of movement and form for its artistry, but there's little hope in wishing for America to come to its aesthetic senses. Basketball will likely never have the same domestic appeal as either football or baseball, no matter how enthusiastically Americans wrap themselves in March Madness, or how much they raise their voices at the NFL's concussion policies.
Basketball is a first-rate wonder masquerading as a third-place sport, and though some needless physicality may only make the level basketball fan roll their eyes at all the macho-driven antics, it's those same bits of savory drama that keep the uninitiated coming back for more.
The game isn't necessarily aided by hatred and physically manifested malice, but the league most certainly—and sadly—is. I wish it didn't have to be this way, and I'd guess that most of the NBA faithful feel the same.
But the NBA registers at its greatest volume when things are at their chippiest, and while Heat-Pacers has offered plenty to the committed and detail-oriented basketball fan, it's only now turned the corner—however unfortunately—into considerable mainstream appeal.

CARRSVILLE, Va. (WVEC) -- Carrsville Elementary School in Isle of Wight County is closed after a fire broke out early Wednesday morning.
Officials said the call came in at 2:39 a.m. Wednesday. Firefighters arrived to find large amounts of smoke inside the school.
No one was hurt.
Dispatchers say the school will be closed Wednesday.
It appears the fire began in a hallway on a lock top computer cart that is used to charge laptop computers.
Crews spent the day Wednesday cleaning up the soot and smoke damage, and an insurance adjustor has been called out to assess damages.
School officials had hoped to re-open on Thursday, but the restoration process is taking longer than expected, and the school will remain closed onf Thursday and Friday.
"We are just very fortunate that nobody was here, it didn't happen during the day," said Lynn Briggs, school spokeswoman.
About 250 students from Pre-K to 5th Grade attend Carrsville Elementary.

Job 23:1-9, 16-17
- Have you ever wanted to confront God like Job dreams of doing? To what questions would you demand answers? Do you think it is possible to "reason with" the Almighty?
- There is a beautiful, almost "edgy" and "raw" quality to Eugene Peterson's version of this in The Message. Plus, I actually prefer the pericope suggestion of Job 23:1-9, 13-17.
Psalm 22:1-15
- This passage pairs nicely with the passage from Job.
- The Psalmist seems to be throwing the ultimate pity party in this text. I can't help but read this text with a slight "whine" in my voice. Or, if not a "whine", perhaps it should be read with a self-righteous, bratty attitude.
- Like it is with the Job text, The Message offers us a really neat take on this passage.
Hebrews 4:12-16
- Before the throne of God, all is laid bare. Nothing escapes God's sight. That can be a pretty terrifying thought, really. Let's face it – we all have things that we would rather hide from the Almighty… But, the amazing news is that the one whose job it is to judge us is not unsympathetic! Christ was tested – just as we are tested. Jesus knows how tough it is to turn away from sin, and – even though he (the Son of God) was able to perfectly turn from sin – he doesn't hold us to an impossible standard (since we are not divine, God-in-Christ shows us mercy).
- You may want to consider other versions of this text: The Message, the Common English Bible, and the Good News Translation are all really good.
- I have suggested using the "liturgical throne" that you may have in your sanctuary as part of a worship display at other times. If you have access to an ornate chair (that looks throne-like), it could be used in your display this week. I suggest that you drape some "royal-looking" fabric on part of the chair (so it looks different from how it normally looks in your worship space), and be sure to place it in a different place in the worship space (again, so it sets it apart from where it is on other Sundays).
Mark 10:17-31
- Many of the pastors I have spoken with recently have mentioned that the churches they serve are in the midst of "stewardship season" (meaning, they are preparing budgets for the upcoming year, gathering pledges, etc). This text is one that I know several folks use to discuss issues of money… That said, I would caution against a message of "Jesus wants you to sell what you have and give the money to the church" — that isn't what the text says.
- The man questions Jesus about what he (the man) needs to do to inherit eternal life. This is a guy who is probably used to being in charge of his life — completely in charge and in control of every aspect of his life. He has mastered the commandments. And, he has (apparently) mastered his business dealings in some way (as he has "many possessions"). So, he wants to know how to be the master of the next life (eternal life). And what does Jesus tell him? Jesus tells him that he is going to have to let go. Let go of what you have, give it away, and follow me (Jesus). Jesus tells the man to let Jesus be the one in control, and that is not "good news" to this man.
- What do we hold onto that we need to let go? What do we need to "sell"? What is it that is holding us back from giving Jesus complete control of where we go? (Because, that's what it means to follow Jesus – that means letting Jesus be at the front of the line, not us.)
- During a political season (here in the U.S.A.) where people on all sides are accusing one another of "class warfare", it may be tempting to put words in Jesus' mouth and have him say that "the rich" will never enter the kingdom of God. He doesn't say that. Neither does he say that the rich are going to have better seats (or worse seats) in the kingdom. He says it is hard – it is difficult to enter the kingdom when you have something that takes a greater importance in your life than God and the rule of love. Whether we are "rich" or "poor", if money is our focus in life, then we are missing out on the treasure we already have in one another and in Christ.
- Leaving things and people behind for the sake of the Gospel is rewarding, but it also brings other troubles (as Jesus states in the last few verses). But…doing so helps to bring about the kingdom…
- This seems to be a theme with the texts for this Sunday, but… You may want to read this passage from a version other than the NRSV. I am particularly fond of the Common English Bible, the Easy-to-Read Version, and The Message for this text.
- If you are focusing on this passage, you may want to decorate with money-related items (coins, piggy banks, wallets, coin purses, etc.). You could also use a "For Sale" sign, or a "Clearance Sale" sign in your worship display.
- This would be a great Sunday to host a clothing drive or a toy drive (collecting gently used or new clothes, toys, etc), giving the collected items to a local shelter or other charity.

Astros drop Game 6 nail-biter10/20/2004 5:51 PM ET
By Alyson Footer / MLB.com
ST. LOUIS -- The Houston Astros experienced a bit of unwelcomed deja vu on Wednesday at Busch Stadium. The circumstances were slightly different than those from six days earlier, but the result was the same -- one bad Dan Miceli pitch and a 6-4 loss to the St. Louis Cardinals. Jim Edmonds, hitless in his previous four at-bats, took an 0-1 fastball from Miceli in the 12th inning and launched it far into the right-field stands, providing the second walk-off homer between these two teams in the last two games of the National League Championship Series. The Cardinals' win tied the series at 3 and forced a decisive Game 7, which will be played Thursday evening at Busch Stadium. "Nothing has been easy," Jeff Bagwell said. "We've always been on the brink of elimination, always been playing must-win games. It's definitely a must-win now. So, here we go."
Last week, Miceli yielded back-to-back home runs to Albert Pujols and Scott Rolen in the eighth to break a 4-4 tie. This time, only one home run was required to abruptly end what had been a brilliant battle between two flawless bullpens.Miceli was the fifth reliever to pitch on the Astros' side, and the first to give up a run. Brad Lidge struck out five and was perfect from the ninth through the 11th, but he was lifted for pinch-hitter Brandon Backe in the 12th when manager Phil Garner had run out of bench players. That left Garner with a few choices to face the most dangerous part of the Cardinals' order, and he chose Miceli, who had not pitched since allowing the homers to Pujols and Rolen last week. "He's pitched for me in the eighth for quite some time," Garner said. "He's done a pretty good job of doing it. You've got to get the guy back on the horse when he falls off it."
The soft-spoken Miceli stood at his locker and fielded every question from reporters."I left a pitch up, again, and they hit it out, again," he said. "I got a few pitches up and they hit them out. I'm going through a tough stretch." He disregarded a suggestion that he might not be healthy. "I'm fine," he said. "I'm healthy. I just made some bad pitches." As frustrated as Miceli may have been, it was nothing compared to his teammates' disgust at being unable to do anything offensively during Lidge's three-inning, five-strikeout performance. Bagwell sparked the spirits in the dugout when he laced a two-out single off Jason Isringhausen in the ninth to tie the game at 4, but the Astros' scoring run stopped there. Lidge needed only 10 pitches to get through the ninth, and he was hoping the offense would render his services unnecessary beyond that frame. "You're hoping to come in and we'd win the game right there," Lidge said. "When that doesn't happen, you're a little disappointed, but you're just going to have to stay out there and give your team every chance to win. It didn't work out tonight but we're optimistic about tomorrow."
"That was the frustrating thing for us all day," Garner said. "We only put one run on the board at a time. We didn't string together hits. We couldn't get any offense generated. So, that was our frustration and it ended up costing us in the end.""You're facing Izzy and that's not the easiest chore in the world," Bagwell said. "But we had Brad in there and he's giving us every chance to come up there and get a run. We just couldn't scratch out another one. "Our bullpen did a tremendous job. I can't say enough about how well they did. It's tough to win in extra innings on the road. It's obviously disappointing to lose in 12 innings." The Astros will play Game 7 with absolutely no history on their side. Since going to a seven-game format in 1985, an LCS has now gone to the full seven games 11 times. The home team has won six of those series, including a perfect 3-for-3 after winning Game 6 at home. Home teams are 3-4 in Game 7 after having lost Game 6 at home. No road team has won a Game 7 after losing Game 6. But, hey, who needs history when you have Roger Clemens starting and Roy Oswalt available in relief? "You've got your two Cy Young candidates," Craig Biggio said. "One will be out in the bullpen and one will be on the mound. That breeds a lot of confidence." "This is what we've been looking for, where we are right now," Carlos Beltran said. "People thought we were going to be eliminated in the first round. Look at where we are right now. Tomorrow is the last game of this round and we just have to be good offensively, defenisvely and pitch well. If we're able to do those things, we're going to be fine."

Nail Fungus : Treatment of cheap drugs , but effective
Medicine / / August 12, 2017
- Symptoms of nail fungus infection
- What used to get rid of the fungus
- What to buy from a fungus, not to splurge
- Can I do without antifungal agents?
Nail Fungus - frequent disease usually begins gradually and tending to the long progressive course.This reduces the visual appeal, there is the risk of ingrown nail plate and surrounding skin lesions.Furthermore, it can change the reactivity of the immune system.Therefore you must use effective treatment of nail fungus, to completely get rid of the disease, rather than just its symptoms mute.
Symptoms of nail fungus infection
fungus - is a microorganism, a parasite in the tissues of the human body.In the process of life, he turns into a nail friability mass containing a large amount of mycelium and spores.While initially this process involves only the upper layers of the nail plate, the propagation takes place in a subsequent lesion depth and sideways.
the early stages of nail fungus is undistinguished, he has a kind of superfic
As the disease progresses the spot increases in size, its surface becomes rough, bumpy, muddy.Nail plate exfoliates and behind the bed, under it forms a gray-yellow mass.Often there is ingrown nail.
What used to get rid of the fungus
For getting rid of fungal infection using the means of several groups:
- protivomikoticheskie preparations of local and sometimes systemic effects;
- means to soften the nail plate, which is called keratolytics;
- substance with antimicrobial activity universal, that act on bacteria and fungi.
use of any drug necessarily complemented by regular mechanical removal of affected areas using nail cutters and saws.Nail pre soften baths or applications keratolytic agents.Often used and popular methods.You do not have to buy in a pharmacy is the advertised vehicle.There are inexpensive but effective drugs against nail fungus.Many of them are well known, and some can be found in almost every home.
What to buy from a fungus, not to splurge
Modern keratolytic agents are available in the form of patches and special solutions.They can be replaced by hot soap-soda baths, rasparivaya feet and then removing portions of nail changes.To remove lesions without surgery can independently use such cheap drugs like Nogtemitsin and nail.
Rather expensive antifungals can be purchased at the pharmacy cheaper generics.So name drugs that are produced by other pharmaceutical developer without a license.Their composition and therapeutic efficacy comparable to the original drug.The most important thing - to have the same active ingredients, as in proprietary funds.
However, unlike generic drugs are not original are the individual clinical trials.However, clinical practice shows that the analogues of modern antimycotics have sufficiently high efficiency and worthy of competing with the costly means.
Therefore, going to the pharmacy, ask your pharmacist commercially available generics.This can save without reducing the effectiveness of treatment.For example, Lamisil can replace ekzifin, Fungoterbinom or Termikonom, because in them is the same active ingredient.Instead Orungal permissible to use Irunine, Itramikol, Orun, Mikonikol, Rumikoz and several other generics.Lotseril successfully replaced amorolfine and Exoderil - naftifine, Fetiminom and Fungoterbinom.Analogues of Diflucan for systemic therapy are Flucostat, Diflazon and Fluconazole.
Antifungals in the form of tablets and capsules to take their own course, not worth it.They are used in the case of systemic therapy and lesion expressed fungal infection spread throughout the body.But if such drugs are prescribed by a doctor, you can try replacing the recommended means of its generics.
In this case, follow-up visits to the doctor to warn the expert that instead of the original drug used its analog.This will help your doctor determine further treatment strategy, if pursued by a lack of effective therapy would be.
But topical formulations in the form of creams, ointments, sprays and lacquers practically not absorbed into the bloodstream and therefore have fewer side effects and good tolerability.But it is advisable to consult with your doctor to clarify the type of fungus and antifungal susceptibility.This is necessary for the selection of an effective drug.
Can I do without antifungal agents?
In mild form of the disease instead of antifungal drugs to treat nail fungus sometimes use tools such as a solution of iodine, boric acid and potassium permanganate (potassium permanganate).They destroy the majority of known microorganisms, but not to penetrate deeply into the affected nail.So that they will be low efficiency in severe fungal infections.Moreover, in their application can get burned skin periungual roller.It is also used celandine oil and vinegar baths.
Treating nail fungus - not a quick process.And buying expensive medications can significantly impact on the family budget.Therefore, you should pay attention to the cheap, yet effective means, after consulting with a doctor.

Want a different kind of adventure? Something the kids will talk about for years to come? Want to unplug from today's hectic world? I mean, really unplug? Then head to the southern-most region of Costa Rica, all the way south to the Golfo Dulce and the Osa Peninsula. Our destination? The Playa Nicuesa Rainforest Lodge, nestled on the shores of the Golfo Dulce, it's backyard an honest-to-goodness jungle.
So power down those cell phones and tablets. Leave those laptops and handheld gaming systems behind. You won't need them at Playa Nicuesa, because you are going off the power grid! And that's just the start of what will be a most unique and fun vacation.
Seven Reasons For a Playa Nicuesa Jungle Adventure
Are you getting the feeling that this isn't your ordinary family vacation? Great! Because it's not. This is one vacation that will take you and your family "off the grid" in so many ways. So grab the kids and let's begin our adventure, shall we? Here's seven reasons why you might want to consider your own jungle adventure.
1. Yes, You Really Are In the Middle of a Jungle!
Playa Nicuesa Rainforest Lodge isn't your ordinary resort. It's an ecolodge, built to sustain itself off the land, including it's power source. Yes, that' right. Playa Nicuesa is off the power grid. What!? No power, you ask? Well, not exactly. Playa Nicuesa is solar powered so yes, there is power. But you won't find any electrical outlets to charge your menagerie of electrical gadgets! Remember my suggestion to leave your electronics behind?
But don't worry, you won't be lost without them. Really! As soon as you are immersed in your surroundings, you'll quickly forget all about those electronics. Unless it's to take a photo or two. So go on, step out outside. Gaze into the jungle, so close you can reach out and touch it. Because you can!
Note: You may not have outlets in your rooms and your cell phones won't find a signal, but your Playa Nicuesa hosts can contact "the outside world" if need be. So yes, you really can unplug here.
2. Witness The Jungle Come Alive
Get ready for a true jungle experience. Open your eyes and ears to the wild and wonderful jungle surrounding Playa Nicuesa. Who knows what you might see or hear? Screeching spider monkeys scurrying across the treetop canopy. The call of a scarlet macaw. We saw and heard both. A family of monkeys flew through the jungle right above our cabin. That scarlet macaw? He kept an eye on my yoga class!
Take a night hike. Explore the jungle under the cover of darkness, when a whole different group of critters comes alive. You never know what critters you might bump into at night. From creepy crawlies to winged critters, perhaps tiny night frogs hopping across the jungle floor, all looking for a midnight snack. Thankfully we're not the snack!
Cockroaches, centipedes, and crabs oh my! Snakes, lizards and spiders too. We saw them all. Don't worry, though. Your guide will find the critters. And you don't have to pick the critters up if you don't want to. Your guide will do that too. Or perhaps your kids will, as mine did! With the guide's approval, of course.
3. Explore Jungle Trails Teeming With Life
Walk the trails surrounding Playa Nicuesa. Be enchanted by amazing jungle flora and fauna at every turn you take, every path you cross. Spend an afternoon exploring paradise while scarlet macaws play overhead, butterflies flit by, and orchids grow wild along the trails.
Explore further with a morning hike to a jungle waterfall in the Piedras Blancas National Park. Don't forget to wear your swimsuit! Nothing's more refreshing than a cool dip after hiking through the steamy jungle.
Be on the watch for signs of wildlife along the trail. Look up. Look down. Look all around. Who knows what you'll see in the trees above. Perhaps it's a family of bats, peeking out from their tree-top home. Or a beautiful bird, like none you've ever seen before. Maybe it's a butterfly sipping nectar. Jungle life is all around you.
Just watch out for those toucans! According to our guide, they may be beautiful to look at, but they can be aggressive. So don't taunt them. Actually, don't taunt any of the creatures. Remember, this is their home, not yours.
4. Kayak A Jungle River
Kayak down a jungle river right out into the Golfo Ducle. So serene. So quiet. It's as if you are the only ones on the river. And you might just be! The odds are it'll just be you, your guide, and a few river critters enjoying a gorgeous float down the river. Watch the shoreline closely. You might see tiny crabs skittering past, birds flying overhead, perhaps a dolphin at the mouth of the Golfo Dulce.
Be sure to look closely when kayaking underneath the trees. Listen for exotic birds as they call to their mates. You might even get lucky and see an anaconda just "hanging out." Hopefully he's all wrapped up and sound asleep!
5. Catch Tonight's Dinner Fresh From the Sea!
It's time to catch us some dinner! Make time for a late afternoon deep sea fishing expedition with a local guide. These Playa Nicuesa guides know exactly where the fish are biting so it won't be long before you've snagged your own meal. Looks like red snapper and tuna's on the menu tonight!
Nothing like a fresh catch to complete the dinner menu. Ok, you don't really have to catch your own dinners here. The Playa Nicuesa chefs are amazing! Nobody went hungry, and our boys discovered new foods that I don't think they would have tried at home. But if you do happen to catch your own dinner, the chefs are more than happy to cook it up for your evening meal. Yum! That's how my boys discovered they liked fish.
6. Experience a Spectacular Wild Dolphin Show
Take a sight-seeing cruise around the Golfo Dulce. You just don't know what might happen along the way. You may even find yourself in the midst of a 100+ dolphin pod, enthralled by their antics. Enchanted by their beauty.
Our particular dolphin experience? An impromptu wild dolphin show. Nearly an hour of jumps, spins and dives right before our eyes. Wow! That was one of the most incredible experiences of my life!
7. Marvel at An Incredible Sunset
Unwind from the day's adventures by relaxing, fishing off the dock, or reading a book in a hammock. Wherever your evening finds you, slow down to catch one of the most spectacular sunsets around. No city lights to dull this amazing light show.
As the sun also set on our own fabulous family adventure, we were left to wonder, would we do it all over? Absolutely! Each and every adventure! Well, ok, I might skip out on that hike to meet the creatures of the night. Naw, I'd do that again too!
Getting To Playa Nicuesa Is Half the Fun!
Have you heard the saying, It's about the journey, not the destination? Well, with Playa Nicueasa, it's about both! Because it sure is a journey getting to Playa Nicuesa. But it is a journey well worth the effort. To start with, there are no roads that lead to Playa Nicuesa. Don't let that discourage you, though. Remember – it's about the journey as much as the destination.
So how does one get to Playa Nicuesa? By boat! Head on down to the docks of either Golfito or Puerto Jimenez, where the Playa Nicuesa "coach" will be waiting. Huh? That's right – your "coach" is a boat! So sit on back for the thirty minute boat ride along the Golfo Dulce, and let the adventure begin. It'll be worth it.

Lights' Out On a Magnificent Family Adventure
Sadly, our five day adventure at Playa Nicuesa has come to an end. Though our adventure has ended, our love for jungles has just begun. And we all agree – we'd go back to the Osa Peninsula in a heart beat! Can't wait for our return to the Osa Peninsula.

Ohio 11th Congressional Congresswoman Marcia L. Fudge and 14-year-old murder victim Alianna DeFreeze of Cleveland
By Kathy Wray Coleman, editor-in-chief
CLEVELAND URBAN NEWS.COM-CLEVELAND, Ohio-Ohio 11th Congressional District Congresswoman Marcia L. Fudge, a Warrensville Heights Democrat whose largely Black congressional district includes the city of Cleveland and several of its eastern suburbs, on Friday released a statement to Cleveland Urban News.Com on the tragic murder of 14-year-old Alianna DeFreeze of Cleveland.
"I send my sincere condolences to the family of Alianna DeFreeze," said Fudge, who is Black. "The loss of a child is extremely difficult, especially when details surrounding her death are so uncertain."
The Black girl, whose body was discovered Sunday evening by police in a vacant home at the the 9400 block of Fullmer Avenue on the city's majority Black east side, was last seen at the 3400 block of East 149th Street last Thursday morning as she was getting off the RTA bus headed to school.
The teen never arrived at school last Thursday, and her family, notified some 10 hours later, subsequently filed a missing person's report.
Her body was identified by the Cuyahoga County medical examiner's office through dental records.
Christopher Whitaker of South Euclid, Ohio, a convicted sex offender who served time in prison for sexual battery, among other convictions, has been charged with aggravated murder, among other crimes, and was arraigned Saturday morning and held on a $3 million bond.
Police say that DNA links Whitaker to the crime, but cannot put him with the girl at any point to date, other than allegedly through DNA evidence.
Her family says she did not know him.
And though Whitaker has pleaded not guilty, Cleveland police Chief Calvin Williams, who is Black, and the mainstream media, have publicly deemed him guilty, an ignorant effort, say sources, to minimize the unrest relative to the gruesome killing, and several other unsolved murders of Black females in Cleveland since 2012.
Some community members, led by longtime greater Cleveland activist Art McKoy, even held a vigil Saturday afternoon to compliment police for bringing Whitaker, who is Black, "to justice."
And this is though Whitaker was just arraigned on Saturday and, by no means, has been brought to justice.
Rep. Fudge, also a former Warrensville Heights mayor and a prior national president of the Black sorority Delta Sigma Theta Inc, is a licensed attorney, and it shows.
She said Friday, though indirectly, that people should not hastily jump to conclusions about Whitaker's innocence or guilt and that she prays for closure.
And while she did not name police specifically, the federal lawmaker did thank those working to solve the case.
She called for peace in the largely Black major American city where Black on Black crime has escalated in recent years, as has erroneous police murders of Black people, including 12-year-old Tamir Rice, Malissa Williams, Timothy Russell, Brandon Jones, Tanisha Anderson and rapper Kenneth Smith.
Cleveland recorded 168 homicides in 2016, the deadliest year in decades, and up 13 percent from 2015, though neighboring suburbs also saw increases, mainly due, like Cleveland, to heroin and opiate overdoses on the rise.
"As a community we must do all we can to work together for the safety and security of our children," said Fudge. "I thank those working to solve unanswered questions surrounding Alianna's death, and pray for peace, closure and healing."
Alianna is the fifth female found dead since 2012 on the city's east side near East 93rd and Kinsman Avenue that has caught the attention of the community and the media, some four women ranging in ages from 20 to 43-year-old, three Black and one White, whose remains were discovered in various places, at least one in abandoned home, within a two-mile radius beginning at East 93rd Street and Bessemer Avenue and transcending to Harvard Avenue.
Police have no leads relative to the murders of the four East 93rd Street women, namely Jasmine Trotter, 20, Ashley Leszyeski, 21 and White, Jamella Hasan, 37, and Christine Malone 43, who left behind eight grown children.
Local community activists and Cleveland Ward 2 Councilman Zack Reed say a possible serial killer is on the loose as to the unsolved cases of the aforementioned.
If so, it would bring the number of greater Cleveland serial killers in recent years to three, behind Anthony Sowell, who murdered 11 women and raped three other Black women at his since demolished home on Imperial Avenue on the city's east side, and East Cleveland serial killer Michael Madison, who murdered three Black women whose bodies were uncovered in the impoverished Black Cleveland suburb in 2013, four years after the remains of the Imperial Avenue women were pulled from Sowell's home by police.
At a well-attended rally for DeFreeze in Cleveland Wednesday Imperial Women Coalition leader Kathy Wray Coleman, who led the rally in front of the abandoned home where DeFreeze's body was found with activist Khalid Samad of Peace in the Hood, said too many Black women and children are getting murdered in Cleveland and that White women and children who are murdered or raped get far more attention than poor Black women and children, especially from the mainstream media.
Coleman also called for city officials to fully implement the 27 recommendations derived by a three-member mayor appointed committee in conjunction with the Imperial Avenue Murders.
An aunt of DeFreeze spoke at the rally, and said her family is "broken."
Other speakers include east side Cleveland Councilpersons Phyllis Cleveland, Zack Reed, and Jeff Johnson, a candidate for mayor this year who hopes to unseat current three-term Mayor Frank Jackson, Angelique Malone, the daughter of Cleveland East 93rd Street murder victim Christine Malone, and Dannita Carmichael, the daughter of Tonia Carmichael, 52 and one of serial killer Sowell's 11 Black murder victims.
Carmichael lambasted Mayor Jackson and members of Cleveland city council, namely Zack Reed and Ken Johnson, who leads the ward where Sowell did his massacre, saying nothing has changed since her mother was murdered and that police are acting like business as usual, a speech laced with expletives.
Community members supported Carmichael, and said after wards that they understand her pain and are glad that "Black women have become more empowered to speak out on Black women getting murdered in Cleveland and very little being done about it."
As she spoke to the media on Wednesday at the rally, Carmichael stood with family members of several of Sowell's other victims, including victim Janice Webb's sister, Joanne Moore, also an outspoken critic of Cleveland police, who arrested Sowell in 2008 on a rape complaint to police but released him to later kill the last six of his 11 victims.
Sowell, now 57, was arrested again in 2009 following another police report of rape.
This time police, who ignored missing persons reports filed by some of the Imperial Avenue families, took the complaint seriously.
The serial killer, who was convicted by a county jury of his peers in 2011, lost an appeal of his convictions and death sentence last year at the Ohio Supreme Court level and is now seeking relief via federal appeals venues.
While some lawsuits filed by the Imperial Avenue families remain pending in federal district court, others have been dismissed by judges like Federal District Judge Donald Nugent, a former county common pleas judge, and a Democrat who has political ties that some say sometimes influence his judicial decisions, some of them reversed on appeal to the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati.

How Can Pinterest Rich Pins Help Your Business
Ever since Pinterest, the pin-board style photo sharing website exploded on to the social media scene in March 2012, it has been growing at a rapid pace with over 48 million users, many of whom are females, who love to purchase and spend money. This of course plays very well in the hands of businesses, particularly in the fashion, clothing and art industry. But before we go into the details of Pinterest and the "Pins", let us first understand what Pinterest is all about.
What is Pinterest?
In simple terms, Pinterest is a website that allows you to 'Pin' your favorite things online, which is similar to pinning items to a board in real life. The difference is that these pins are stored inside your Pinterest account and you can comment, like, and share on each of your pins. That's not all, you can also "Re-pin" items from friends on Pinterest, find like-minded people interested in similar pins, or just randomly browse through pins and boards from a variety of different categories.
What are Pinterest Rich Pins?
To make Pinterest even more beneficial for small and large businesses, the concept of Rich Pins has been introduced to the photo sharing platform. While the basic use of a pin is the same, Rich Pins give more functionality and information to the users, in the form of additional information below a pin. Following are the three 3 categories, which can be utilized for a much better Pinterest experience.
Product Pins
The Product Pins include additional information like product's pricing, availability, size, location etc.
Movie Pins
The Movie Pins contain pretty much everything you need to know about a Movie including its ratings, cast information, director, and more.
Recipe Pins
A definite favourite for all food lovers, and particularly food bloggers. The Recipe Pins provide enhanced information including ingredients, cooking instructions, and a lot more.
The Effect of Rich Pins on Businesses?
Imagine a user stumbling upon one of your pins. In case of a Rich Pin, the user will get all the required information right there and then. There won't be a need for him/her to leave the Pinterest platform. All information including price, availability, location etc on the pin means that the customer's purchase process will be cut down considerably. But this is not all. Pinterest is continuously revising its platform by introducing new features to help small and large business owners market their products effectively. Apart from Rich Pins, Pinterest also supports detailed web analytics to help businesses keep track of their incoming traffic. Are you on Pinterest? How much has it helped your business acquire a targeted audience and eventual sales? Let us know in the comments below.

Anyone who moronically labels Israel an "apartheid state" should look to the country's diverse legislature, or Knesset. Members of Knesset (MKs) come from all walks of life -- race, religion and creeds. In fact, sadly some Knesset members don't even think Israel should exist at all (leaving us to wonder where said Knesset member would plan on living and working).
Case in point: Israeli Arab MK Haneen Zoabi penned a February 14 opinion column in the American publication Newsweek, in which she declared that Israel does not have the right to self-defense because it is an "occupying power." She wrote:
'Self-defense' is the expression the Israelis use in order to justify any extra-judiciary executions as well as their control over others' lives. However, there can be no justification for killing, nor for oppression. The occupier does not have the right to self-defense. We, the occupied, have the full and only right to fight it, by all means recognized within the framework of international law and supported by the international community.
Zoabi also claimed that terrorists killed by authorities while committing terrorist acts are innocent victims, too.
She has been temporarily suspended from certain aspects of her Knesset role (while still being allowed to vote in committees) over a long list of transgressions (which we will enumerate here thanks to a list published in the the Jewish Press
Haneen Zoabi is an Israeli Arab member of the Knesset who is frequently in the news for verbally attacking the Jewish State or for actions against Israel, such as participating in the anti-Israel Gaza Flotilla in 2010.
Zoabi also praised the Palestinian Arabs who kidnapped and murdered the three Israeli boys during the summer of 2014, called for a violent uprising against Israel, and has spit in the face of Arab Israeli police officers for being "traitors."
Zoabi, 47, recently again showed her loyalty to those who murder Israelis by making a condolence call, with several other Arab MKs, on the families of terrorists who murdered Israelis, including one American Israeli, Richard Lakin.
Zoabi and her colleagues told the families of the terrorists that they would help to get the bodies of the terrorists released from Israeli authorities. They referred to the terrorists as "martyrs."
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was infuriated by the visit, as were many knesset members across several different parties.
"MKs going to console families of terrorists who murdered Israelis are not worthy of serving in the Knesset," Netanyahu said in a statement.
The Zionist Union party issued a statement criticizing the meeting, saying that the visit with the families of terrorists by Arab MKS "encourages more terrorism and killing of innocents."
Zoabi and her two Arab Israeli knesset member compatriots were suspended for several months. They will be barred from attending the Knesset plenum, but will still be able to vote both in the Knesset and in committees.
Zoabi claims her suspension proves how undemocratic Israel has become and how hostile it is Palestinian Arabs, whom she calls the "indigenous people" of the land.
Zoabi is a perfect example of the types of parasitic, subversive forces working within Israel to tear her apart from asunder. The Arab MK reaps the benefit of living in the peace and democracy of a modern Israel, avails herself of all its perks, luxuries and privilegages, uses the liberalness of its government to elevate herself politically, then spits on the flag she supposedly serves under. We would all like to see Zoabi renounce her Israeli citizenship and go live among the people she claims to champion. If she did, Newsweek and other American outlets bent on painting Israel in a negative light would likely give her two columns per month.
On the flip side, Israel has nothing to prove and certainly nothing to gain by allowing such subversive elements power within its government ranks. People like Zoabi should be considered traitors -- as that is exactly what they are -- and handled accordingly. Would Israel be slammed for purging the Zoabis from her ranks? Yes. But Israel is slammed for everything all the time -- no matter how generous, forward-thinking or liberal she acts.

Thrown aside
Pettitte, Yankees strong-arm Sox as Martinez falters
Running baseball teams for nearly a quarter-century has convinced Red Sox CEO Larry Lucchino to emblazon one overriding principle in his formula for success.
Thrown aside
Pettitte, Yankees strong-arm Sox as Martinez falters
Running baseball teams for nearly a quarter-century has convinced Red Sox CEO Larry Lucchino to emblazon one overriding principle in his formula for success.
"You need pitching, pitching, and more pitching," Lucchino has said from Day 1 of spring training.
What he got yesterday was something else altogether. While his widely feared offense continued to rip apart opposing pitchers like so much confetti, several of Lucchino's hurlers, including the pep-less Pedro Martinez, served as little more than party favors for the Yankees, who romped to a 10-7 victory before 34,350 at Fenway Park.
Dashing their fandom's wildest fantasies of sweeping three straight from the Steinbrenner Nine and surging back to the threshold of supremacy in the American League East, Martinez and two successors -- Alan Embree and Byung Hyun Kim -- inadvertently conspired to undermine the best efforts of the unrelenting Sox offense.
Embree let an inherited runner score and gave up two runs of his own in the eighth inning to help the Yankees seize an ultimately insurmountable 8-4 advantage and regain their 4 1/2-game division lead while the Sox fell a half-game behind the Mariners in the wild-card derby.
Embree ripped his effort in postgame comments, and Martinez might have said the same as Embree if he said anything at all publicly, which he didn't. And Kim might have echoed Embree as well if his English were sharp enough.
Instead, Kim, who gave up a back-breaking two-run blast to Jorge Posada in the ninth inning, suggested his breathing techniques went awry, possibly throwing him off rhythm and his breaking ball out of whack.
"I didn't have a good breaking ball today," he said through interpreter Chang Lee.
Worse, Martinez didn't have much of anything as he apparently continued to suffer the aftereffects of the severe throat inflammation he endured last week. In his shortest outing of the season not involving an injury-related pitch count, Martinez lasted only four innings, surrendering five earned runs to the Yankees in a start for the first time in his career.
On the day the Sox needed their ace to rise up, he stumbled, falling to 8-8 lifetime against the Yankees while he is 86-15 against the rest of the American League. He departed trailing, 5-4, after throwing 87 pitches through four.
"It was a struggle from the time he started," catcher Jason Varitek said. "Obviously, he was not very sharp, and he didn't get away with anything. Any mistake got hit."
Struggling to hit 90 miles an hour with his fastball, Martinez tried to survive on a steady diet of curveballs, changeups, and cut fastballs. But the Yankees smacked him around for two runs in the third inning and three more in the fourth.
"He wasn't a hundred percent out there," manager Grady Little said. "He's still a little bit affected by the sickness he had last week and it caught up with him pretty good there about the fourth inning."
Fatigued, Martinez gave way to long reliever Bronson Arroyo, who pitched sensationally for 3 1/3 innings to keep the Sox in contention, still trailing, 5-4, in the eighth. Enter Embree, who generally had been spectacular in August, allowing one run in 13 appearances.
"Bronson did an outstanding job out there," Little said, "but we were at the point in the game where these other guys, Embree and Kim, that's their part of the game. It was just a matter of not executing a couple of pitches."
With two outs and Aaron Boone on second base, Embree said he worried too much about Boone and misplaced a pitch to Enrique Wilson, who rifled a single to right field to make it 6-4.
Derek Jeter then launched a ground-rule double to right before Embree made another mistake to Nick Johnson, who laced a two-run single to left, putting the Sox in the 8-4 hole.
"If I make those pitches, we walk off and we win that game," Embree said. "It's frustrating that we lost because of what it means to the fans and our team, but the bottom line is we have to be four games better than the Yankees in September. I'm not going to lose sleep over it."
The shame of it was, the Sox had a chance to outlast Andy Pettitte, who improved to 13-4 in his career against them, when they waged a rousing comeback attempt in the bottom of the eighth after the latest screening of the "Rally Karaoke Guy" video. After reliever Jeff Nelson failed to retire any of the four batters he faced to start the inning, he gave way to closer Mariano Rivera, who surrendered a two-run double to pinch hitter David McCarty, making it 8-6. Lou Merloni and Johnny Damon, who survived a nasty outfield collision with Gabe Kapler earlier in the game, then drew walks off Rivera to force in another run.
But when the Sox handed the ball to Kim in the ninth, he let the Yanks pull away again, leaving it to knuckleballer Tim Wakefield to help deprive Roger Clemens of his 100th career victory at Fenway today and keep hope alive in the Hub for a division title.
"We're in this," Varitek said. "We're right where we want to be. We're standing there fighting, so we'll go get them [today]."
