Promise: a statement telling someone that you will definitely do something or that something will definitely happen in the future
We like when people keep their promises and we even tell people we are going to do something by saying the words, "I Promise". Promises are made all the time but they only are valid when the person who is making the promise actually keeps the promise they say they are going to keep. We have all been around people who have made promises but then they either had no intention of fulfilling them or they lacked the discipline to carry through on what they said they were going to do. There are some people we do not even listen to any more simply because what they say to us is meaningless because of the broken promises they have made in the past.
God has made promises throughout the Bible that we can count on because God does not fail and He always does what He says He is going to do. Some people expect things out of God that He never promised or they misread what He has written in His word but there is not one time that God has failed to fulfill a promise He has made.
Daniel read one of those promises that the captivity should last only 70 years and so Daniel being one of the first exiles taken knew the captivity was to be close to the end and therefore he sought God's wisdom and God's mercy for him and his people. Daniel knew God's promises and he knew that God would fulfill that promise because God always keeps His promises. We can trust God for the future because the promises He already made that have already come true.
When we talk about future events in the Bible we call them prophecy because they are what is told will happen in the future. A prophecy is nothing but a promise of what God said would happen. 28.5% of the Old Testament is prophecy and 21.5% of the New Testament is prophecy. There are over 300 prophecies about Jesus Christ and a little over 100 of those prophecies came true the first time He came to earth. Because the prophecies that have already been fulfilled have come true, we can be sure that the promises that are yet to come will happen just the way God said they would.
Read Daniel 9:20-23
Highly Esteemed: Someone who is counted as precious. The term is used to speak of the value of gold.(Ezra 8:27) and costly garments (Gen. 27:15) and it is how God views His children. Never doubt your preciousness as Gods children even when life does not seem to be going the way you thought it would. One of the first things people tend to do when God does not come through for them like they thought He should is to doubt their preciousness to Him. God loved us enough to die for our sins (John 3:16) and that was not based on our behavior but on His love. (Romans 5:8) He died for our sins so that we could be back in a right relationship with Him and He is the one who made all the initiative to get the relationship back (Romans 3:11) so we must always remember we are precious to Him no matter how we might feel.
Read Daniel 9:24-27
1) The Promise Made to Israel
These passages are crucial and some of the most controversial passages of scripture but most of this apply to the nation of Israel and not to America. I have read and heard people try and take the passages of scripture and make them about the U.S.A. They even show in the word Jerusalem that the word U.S.A. is in there. (JerUSAlem). The promises that are made in these passages are for Israel and although there is some application for all of God's children most of this is specific to them and the plans God has for them.
Sevens means that each year holds seven years each based on Leviticus 25:1-7. So every Seven would represent 49 years. According to 2 Chronicles 36:21 the Babylonian captivity was because the Jewish people rebelled against God by not allowing the land to rest every seven years as was commanded and the years of captivity were in conjunction to how many years they rebelled.
To finish transgression: this was the specific punishment of the rebellion of Israel toward God.
Israel will repent and turn toward God when Jesus comes again. (Zechariah 12:10-13:1; Romans 11:25-27)
To put an end to sin: this prophecy will not be fulfilled till Jesus rules the earth at His second coming.
To atone for wickedness: people will be pardoned for their wickedness which was done through Jesus Christ something the Jews will finally understand and accept at Jesus second coming.
To bring everlasting righteousness: Israel will not rebel against God again.(Jeremiah 31-34; Ezekiel 36:22-32) or it means that Jesus rule will be righteous. (Isaiah 11:1-5; Jeremiah 23:5-6; 33:15-18)
To seal up the vision and the prophecy: No more prophecies will be needed when Jesus rules
To anoint the most holy: referring to the Temple (Ezekiel 40-48) that will be in place during the millennial reign of Christ.
2) The Promise of the Messiah
Vs 25 From the time the word goes out to rebuild Jerusalem to the time of the anointed one
Nehemiah 2:1-5 In the month of Nisan in the twentieth year of King Artaxerxes, when wine was brought for him, I took the wine and gave it to the king. I had not been sad in his presence before,2 so the king asked me, "Why does your face look so sad when you are not ill? This can be nothing but sadness of heart." I was very much afraid,3 but I said to the king, "May the king live forever! Why should my face not look sad when the city where my ancestors are buried lies in ruins, and its gates have been destroyed by fire?" 4 The king said to me, "What is it you want?" Then I prayed to the God of heaven,5 and I answered the king, "If it pleases the king and if your servant has found favor in his sight, let him send me to the city in Judah where my ancestors are buried so that I can rebuild it."
The first sevens (49 years) start with the rebuilding of the Temple. Some say this started with King Cyrus allowing the Jewish people to return home (Ezra 1:2-4; 6:3-5) but many believe that it was the time Nehemiah went to rebuild the city which was 445B.C. There is some discussion about the calendar years being 365 days or 360 days but everyone believes that the each seven meant seven years which means that the Messiah had to be on the earth when Jesus Christ was here. This means that according to the Old Testament there is not other time that the Messiah is to come but that He already came.
The Anointed one means a priest or King or both. Jesus Christ fit another promise that was made about the coming messiah but they seem to miss that He was the one. There are several discussions about when exactly the Messiah would show Himself and one of them was when Jesus rode into Jerusalem on a colt.
Luke 19:35-39 They brought it to Jesus, threw their cloaks on the colt and put Jesus on it. 36 As he went along, people spread their cloaks on the road.37 When he came near the place where the road goes down the Mount of Olives, the whole crowd of disciples began joyfully to praise God in loud voices for all the miracles they had seen:38 "Blessed is the king who comes in the name of the Lord!"[b]"Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!"39 Some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to Jesus, "Teacher, rebuke your disciples!"
The religious leaders should have known that the messiah should be on the earth at this time and Josephus the historical Jewish writer even talks about how there was talk about the messiah coming during that time. Jesus fulfilled a promise that was given hundreds of years earlier that the religious leaders again should have recognized.
Zechariah 9:9 Rejoice greatly, Daughter Zion! Shout, Daughter Jerusalem! See, your king comes to you, righteous and victorious, lowly and riding on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey.
Scripture is always how we confirm the truth about the promises God has made to us. When John the Baptist began to doubt in prison if Jesus was the Messiah, Jesus made sure he knew that Jesus fulfilled all the attributes of the Messiah that was to come.
Matthew 11:2-6 Now when John heard in prison about the deeds of the Christ, he sent word by his disciples 3 and said to him, "Are you the one who is to come, or shall we look for another?" 4 And Jesus answered them, "Go and tell John what you hear and see: 5 the blind receive their sight and the lame walk, lepers[a] are cleansed and the deaf hear, and the dead are raised up, and the poor have good news preached to them. 6 And blessed is the one who is not offended by me."
"The coming of the Messiah at the end of the sixty-nine sevens could refer to Christ birth, His baptism, or his presentation to Israel as its promised Messiah on Palm Sunday. Jesus baptism is the most likely choice since it was at that time Jesus officially took upon Himself the role of the Messiah and began His public ministry." (The New American Commentary, Stephen R. Miller, Pg. 265)
If the nation of Israel was looking for a Messiah then it had to happen at this time. A Rabbi named Leopold Kahn studied the 70 weeks of Daniel chapter nine and gave his life to Christ because he knew the Messiah had to have come to the earth already.
Everyone has to do something with Jesus Christ. Every religion has a statement about what they believe about Jesus Christ and if He was just a great teacher, a prophet, an older brother or if He was God in the flesh. The prophecy of Daniel was met perfectly when Jesus Christ walked the earth at that exact moment in time proving that the promises of God have come true.
John 20:30 Now Jesus did many other signs in the presence of the disciples, which are not written in this book;31 but these are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.
The things that are written in the Bible are there to help you believe that God made a way for you to be back in a right relationship with Him through Jesus Christ. Jesus was God in the flesh who came to redeem the people He not only created but loves very much.
Every time the Bible mentions the first coming of Christ it mentions 8 times of His second coming. We know He is coming again because He came the first time and He will keep His promise because He has always kept His promises.
What will you do with Jesus Christ? Ignore Him? Make Him into something He is not? Or trust Him that He was God in the flesh who came to die for our sins putting us back into a right relationship with God?
3) The Promise of Jesus Death
"The anointed one will be put to death (cut off) "
The Word "Cut Off" was used for the death penalty (Leviticus 7:20-27) and meant a violent death (1 Samuel 17:51; Obadiah 9; Nahum 3:15)Daniel saw that God would not only be rejected by His people but they would violently try and get rid of Him. A violent death is exactly what Jesus suffered for us because death by crucifixion was one of the worst ways to die. You can only wonder how disheartened Daniel was that he would know that his own people would reject the very person they longed for to come. Daniel saw that Jesus should have been given the throne but He was given the cross, He should have been received but He was rejected.
John 19:14-18 It was the day of Preparation of the Passover; it was about noon. "Here is your king," Pilate said to the Jews.15 But they shouted, "Take him away! Take him away! Crucify him!" "Shall I crucify your king?" Pilate asked. "We have no king but Caesar," the chief priests answered.16 Finally Pilate handed him over to them to be crucified. So the soldiers took charge of Jesus. 17 Carrying his own cross, he went out to the place of the Skull (which in Aramaic is called Golgotha). 18 There they crucified him, and with him two others—one on each side and Jesus in the middle.
The Death and resurrection of Jesus Christ is the crucial theme of Christianity because without God dying in the flesh there would be no forgiveness of our sins. (Hebrews 9:22) When Jesus rose again from the dead He defeated death making it possible for us to live for eternity with Him. (Romans 6:4-10)
4) The Promise of the Temple's Destruction
And the people of the prince who is to come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary. (26)Gabriel just promised the rebuilding of the temple but now saw a future time when the temple would be destroyed again. Jesus made the same claim when He was on the earth.
Luke 19:41-44 As he approached Jerusalem and saw the city, he wept over it42 and said, "If you, even you, had only known on this day what would bring you peace—but now it is hidden from your eyes.43 The days will come upon you when your enemies will build an embankment against you and encircle you and hem you in on every side.44 They will dash you to the ground, you and the children within your walls. They will not leave one stone on another, because you did not recognize the time of God's coming to you."(See Also Matthew 24:1-2)
The Temple was destroyed in 70 AD and we know from history that the temple was not supposed to be destroyed but it was lit on fire and all the gold melted between the stones causing the army to then have to turn over the stones to retrieve the gold. Because that happened the prophecy Jesus told came true even though it seemed like an outlandish thing to happen and Jewish Historical writer Josephus understood that the destruction of the temple was predicted by Daniel.
The Gap Years
What happened between the 69th and 70th week of the sevens?
John 1:11-1211 He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him.12 Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God—
When Jesus was rejected by His people He turned his attention to the gentiles. The gentiles were always part of God's plan and the children of Israel were supposed to be a blessing to the other nations by living and telling about the true God. (Genesis 12:1-3) This period of time between the 69th and 70th week are called the church age.
The reason that there is a gap between the 69 h and 70th week is that Prophecies can be separated by periods of time even though they are in the same verse of scripture. Isaiah 9:6 is a perfect example of this as we see that Jesus came to us but the government will not be on His shoulders until He comes to reign eternally.
Isaiah 9:6 For to us a child is born, to us a son is given,and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
The church age was a mystery in the Old Testament and it was not shown to Daniel because Daniel was specifically asking about Israel. Some believe that the gap year will end when the church is raptured and all attention will focus once again on Israel. Some say the clock on Israel is paused but will restart when the Anti-Christ takes power and makes a covenant with Israel.
5) The Promise of the Anti-Christ
Daniel 9:27 "And he shall make a strong covenant with many for one week, and for half of the week he shall put an end to sacrifice and offering. And on the wing of abominations shall come one who makes desolate, until the decreed end is poured out on the desolator."
This verse deals with what the antichrist will do and the promises he will break with Israel. This is the tribulation mentioned in Revelation 7:14 and Matthew 24:21 when the anti-Christ will make a peace treaty with Israel and half way through (3 ½ years) he will break the treaty and set himself up to be worshiped as God. (Revelation 11:2;12:4; 13:4-8)
2 Thessalonians 2:4 He will oppose and will exalt himself over everything that is called God or is worshiped, so that he sets himself up in God's temple, proclaiming himself to be God.
Matthew 24;15 So when you see standing in the holy place 'the abomination that causes desolation,'[a] spoken of through the prophet Daniel—let the reader understand—
The temple in Jerusalem must be rebuilt and the sacrificial system that has not operated since 70 AD will be reinstituted. There is some debate about all of this since Jesus Christ died on the cross the institution of sacrifices will not be needed. Of course the Israelites will not give themselves to Christ fully until He comes and destroys the anti-Christ and rules during the millennial reign. Although the temple through the years has had abominations happen to it this will be like no other time in history. The promise of the anti-Christ has yet to be fulfilled but the last seven will happen one day. Although people may mock the delay we are promised by God that this is exactly how things will happen. We can believe Him because every promise He has made has come true. We can have peace in this world because God already knows the future and what exactly will happen.

Firewall connection alert.
Hello Bill Leeper,
Sophos Home is managed in the cloud and the backend servers for communication are different from the download servers, thus an as yet unknown connection is expected.InstallationAlert - guess it informs the backend of the status of the installation. Note that the device needs to register properly in order for Home to work (how else could the license be validated and enforced?).
Thanks for the reply. This is a new connection from the newly updated install of Sophos Home free. It came with a 30 day trial of the premium and i'm wondering if it had something to do with that. But, as an old oldtimer in computers I just don't like new connections in an updated old program. And when they have "feedback" in the connection name it always makes me wonder.
Anyway, I will keep digging as time permits. I have used a temp deny on the connection with no discernible effect. Anyway, I will find out after the trial for premium expires if it is related to that.
dunno if macfeedback is crucial to the install, apparently not.
an old oldtimerbooted from diskette? Nothing beats punched cards (if you use sequence numbers and have a sorter at hand) [;)]. It's cloud everywhere nowadays.
"feedback"definitely doesn't hide a potential "malicious" intent. Naw, IIRC it wasn't there from the start. It might serve several purposes, telemetry comes to mind. As it apparently is used by the installer it might be a supplement to detect failures when the communication system proper failed to install, or other "early" failures. So that you can see in the web console that install on a device has been attempted even when the device could not establish a management connection. Just guessing though.Not necessarily related to Premium.
Let's just say I learned computers on vacuum tubes. :-) Worked on IBM 360/75 mainframes later on for a few years while in the military. We used to mess the Denver power company by adding punches to the punch cards that came with our electric bills. :-) Did everything from the, at that time (ALU) not CPU, to tape drives, printers, keyboards, and anything else attached to the system. We even had 64k iron core memory modules that were cubes about 6" on a side. Not to mention two banks of 9 drives each removable 10 platter disks. And I have heard a hard drive crash which most people have no idea why it was called a crash these days. :-)
I wasn't worried about anything malicious just with what was going back home in the way of information. I have a habit of making rules to deny connections calling home when it is not needed. I just don't like needless outgoing stuff. Anyway, thanks again for your time. If I find anything out I will post it here but not many people will probably be interested in the info.
I think I got it figured out. It looks to be tied to SophosWebIntelligence.bundle
"Sophos anti-virus has a built-in feature called Web Protection. If Web Protection is enabled, Sophos reroutes all network traffic through Sophos in order to analyze the content. Thus Sophos creates all network request instead of the original application."
That would explain all the traffic from InstallationDeployer. Denying it just lets the traffic connect normally. Seems to me though that this would defeat the whole purpose of anonymous surfing. Anyway, thanks for your interest.

Cornea Transplant
Cornea Transplant
A cornea transplant is a type of eye surgery done to replace cornea with tissue. Your cornea is the clear layer in the front of your eye and if it is damaged, a cornea transplant will need to be done. The procedure usually involves you being awake during it and the tissue typically comes from someone who has died and donated their organs. There are different types of cornea transplant procedures, which the most common being called a "penetrating keratoplasty." This procedure involves the surgeon removing a small piece of your cornea and replacing it with the new cornea tissues.
Who Needs a Cornea Transplant?
The cornea transplant will be performed on anyone who has scarring of their cornea from eye injuries or severe infections of the eye, vision problems from thinning of the cornea which are usually from keratoconus, or vision loss from clouding of the cornea, such as from Fuchs' dystrophy.
Risks of Cornea Transplants
As with most types of surgeries, there are some risks with cornea transplants though nothing too severe. The most common risk is when your body rejects the transplanted tissue. This is rare but does occur in some patients, though steroid eye drops usually fix this condition. Additional risks from the transplant are bleeding, eye infections, glaucoma, and a swelling of the front of the eye. There are also risks from using anesthesia including allergic reaction and breathing difficulties.
Preparing for the Cornea Transplant
Before your procedure, you should let your doctor know of any medical conditions you have as well as any medications you're taking, including herbs and supplements, prescriptions and over-the-counter medications. You may need to stop most medications at least 10 days before the surgery to prevent blood clots. Starting at midnight the night before your surgery, you will also need to stop eating and drinking though you may be allowed water or apple juice up to 2 hours before your scheduled surgery. Be prepared to have someone drive you home after your surgery, and don't wear jewelry, cream or lotion on your face.
After the Cornea Transplant
A cornea transplant is considered an outpatient procedure and you will typically go home the same day. You will be directed to wear an eye patch for 1-4 days while your eye heals from the transplant. You will probably also be given eye drops that help prevent rejection and infection. Stitches from the transplant are removed at the follow-up visit, but in some cases remain for up to a year. Healing and recovery of your eyesight can also take up to a year, but most with the transplant have very successful outcomes. If you have other eye conditions, they may keep your eyesight from returning fully.

Heavy equipment in action on Wednesday, July 5, symbolizes the start of Bettplex construction.
The regional sports center along the Interstate 80 corridor could be hosting its first games in about a year.
"It's pleasing, and yet, a little nerve-wracking because we want to get it done," said developer Doug Kratz.
Kratz pitched the idea for the $57-million project after researching other regional sports centers around the country. Now, he's taking that idea and making it a reality.
"We asked a lot of other people that run these facilities what they would do differently," Kratz continued. "What we were pleasantly surprised to find out is that a lot of what they told us they'd do differently, we had already accounted for in our planning," he continued.
Youngsters and adults from local teams joined Kratz and city officials to break ground on the project. The site and location should attract a variety of teams and tournaments nearly every weekend of the year.
"They're looking for another central area around here," said Larry Miller, president of the Quad City Pickleball Club. "We are right in the middle of that. This is a great opportunity for pickleball here."
Bettplex will offer year-round activities on its 78-acre site. The competitions should also spark demand for amenities like a hotel and restaurants nearby.
Bettendorf, which is offering TIF incentives, plans to make its money from the tourism.
"We will have thousands of visitors to the Quad Cities each and every weekend," said Bettendorf Mayor Bob Gallagher. "We all win with this type of development."
This is all about the future of regional sports in the Quad Cities. Construction is already moving along on schedule.
"It'll be exciting," said Kratz. "I just hope we're not fully exhausted to the point where we won't enjoy it. But it will be a wonderful thing."
For athletes and fans, a wonderful Bettplex that's preparing for all the action.

Myth of the Mylar Space blanket….
Was out hiking the other evening with some friends who did not seem prepared for any type of adventure, even a couple of miles into the front-country. They each carried a small "Camelbak" its free pocket stuffed with a few energy bars and two Emergency Mylar Space blankets. I inquired, "what will you do if an emergency occurs". Each of them referred to their "space blanket" and cell phones as "survival" tools.
I have heard this claim many times before, "a space blanket provides an adequate shelter and can keep one comfortable on an unexpected night out". I have always said "the term space blanket is a falsehood; the thin plastic sheet is neither a miracle material nor a blanket". Don't believe the marketing claims!
By definition: "Blankets" trap heat in insulating pockets of dead air space, the thicker the insulation the higher the heat retention value. Blankets do not add heat, they simply trap it.
A thin plastic sheet has no insulating properties; the plastic barrier immediately becomes as cold as the snow, rock or cool wind and will immediately conduct that cold through wet clothing to the body, possibly effecting your core body temperature. A space blanket is not a blanket, nor an effective barrier between you and the environment.
While the Mylar Space blanket is not completely useless, with a little improvisation it can be RE-purposed to meet the needs of many a survivor:
• The aluminized material does in fact reflect radiant heat, just not body heat, used behind a fire or in the rear of a shelter as a heat reflector, can increase shelter temps dramatically. Also effective in providing shade in a desert environment.
• Can be worn under clothing as an effective "vapor barrier", reducing convective heat loss.
• Aluminized Mylar material is translucent, can be worn over face and eyes as emergency sunglasses, reducing sun exposure and possible sun or snow blindness.
• Opened, the reflective surface makes an excellent rescue signal. Waved as a flag or beach towel in the sun, sends off a large reflection with the effect of a huge broken mirror.
• The polyester material the aluminum is bound to can be: used as a fire starter, cut into strips and twisted into cordage and used in a depression to collect, store and boil water w/ hot stones.
• When enclosed in the material, it is extremely noisy, possibly drowning out the yells of rescuers or SAR aircraft.
• The fragile state of an opened blanket is evident immediately; a small nick and breeze can result in shreds of Space blanket material. Usually these blankets are made too small in size for an average adult and require both hands to keep in place.
• As stated above, they are technically NOT a "blanket" & are ineffective in capturing, retaining and reflecting body heat.
• While extremely compact and lightweight, opening one can be extremely difficult, especially in any wind or with an injury, getting it back into its previous folded size is a feat for the Gods...
• THE biggest drawback of Mylar Space blankets: they are perishable. Their sensitivity to light and heat can, with time, produce a brittle, unmanageable and flaking state. Most preppers store these in their emergency kits for years, occupying valuable space, and may be unreliable when needed.
"So If I remove the Space blankets from my emergency packs, is there an alternative?"
While lacking the compact nature and light weight of the space blanket, there are a number of effective alternatives. 1) A clear 55 gallon drum liner is perhaps one of the most useful items one can carry. Its possible uses are only limited by your imagination. 2) Adventure Medical's Heatsheet Bivy, a lightweight, durable, immediate shelter. 3) Lastly, lets not forget your #1 line of defense against the elements: Proper Clothing. Dress for the worse, hope for the best.
Stay healthy, mind-body-spirit! -Z

Painful Lessons by S.C. Wynne

College is a time of personal exploration, and freshman Brett Bridgeworth is more than ready to jump in with both feet. He's young, rich, and ready for anything. His future is bright, except for one problem: he sucks at math. Luckily there's the sensual and mysterious math tutor, Jeremy Price, only too willing to help.
Before long Jeremy is tutoring Brett in more than just pie charts, but Jeremy's carnal appetites are a little too intense for Brett. Jeremy has always been a lot to handle, but it isn't until they split up that Brett discovers Jeremy's twisted and obsessive side.
Sam Hawthorne is two years ahead of Brett, and he's always had a little thing for the younger man. When Brett breaks if off with Jeremy for good, Sam takes a chance and confesses his feelings to Brett. Brett had no idea Sam was interested in him, and has also always had feelings for Sam. Brett and Sam fall in love, and Brett is only too happy to forget all about his bizarre relationship with Jeremy.
Unfortunately, Jeremy has no intention of forgetting about Brett.
First edition published by Dreamspinner Press, January 2016.
As the title suggests, 'Painful Lessons' is a novel of self-discovery and learning the hard way how important it is to recognize our own value. It's about one young man's experience of going away to college for the first time, sampling the freedom of being out from under parental supervision, and waking up to the responsibility that comes along with it. Most of all, it's about making mistakes, as well as realizing the difference between a relationship that is harmful and destructive, and one that helps strengthen and nourish him as a person.
Brett Bridgeworth can't wait to start college so that he can escape an emotionally detached father and spread his wings. He isn't looking to complicate his life by falling in love, but some casual sex is definitely on the agenda. Brett believes he has found the ideal candidate in his math tutor Jeremy Price—charming, sexy, utterly hypnotic—and the two embark on a passionate affair. Yet, even while being lured under Jeremy's spell, Brett soon discovers his lover's cool façade conceals something darker, something violent and possessive that seems beyond his control.
Adding to Brett's confusion is his friendship with Sam Hawthorne, a student two years ahead of him. Sam is fun-loving and easygoing, a marked contrast to Jeremy, and Brett can't deny the attraction simmering between them. When Jeremy finally pushes him too far, it doesn't take Brett long to understand how much he cares about Sam, and the genuine feelings Sam has for him in return. The trouble is, Jeremy's jealousy and need for dominance are unable to withstand him losing out to another man, and he has no intention of letting Brett go so easily.
S.C. Wynne doesn't shy away from tackling difficult subjects in this novel, but explores the damage that can result from an unhealthy relationship, and what happens when possessiveness becomes obsession. Brett is forced to do a considerable amount of growing up during the course of the story, and his character develops a great deal. In fact, following his journey as he matures from a naïve freshman with big ideals and low self-esteem, into a confident young man who knows himself worthy of being loved, was the aspect I enjoyed most about this book.

I Preferred the Rain
Lenna Giddie McKinney (1865)
I and mother was baptized on June 23rd 1881 in Clayton County Georgia by Matthias F. Cowly. Confirmed by John W. Taylor. I was then 16 years old. Then people began to talk, said morman women saved themselves for the elders.
Few years later, a cousin of mine came from Utah, a missionary. I wanted to go to Utah with him, but Father said no, so I had to wait. And while I waited, I gained a stronger testamony of the gosple and that the Lord heard and answered prayers. I prayed that Father would give his consent, and in december before I left there in February 17, 1886 there was a methodist preacher staying at our home. They talked on mormonism some. Mother handed him the book of Mormon, but he would not touch it. The next day he asked me for my picture. I said no, - any man that was as apposed to my faith as he – he said why he was not apposed to my faith. I told him he would not touch the book when mother handed it to him. He was the only devil I ever seen that I was afraid of. One day I felt so uneasy, I wanted to go to my sisters and stay all night but it rained. When I started to the correll to milk, as the women did the milking there, he wanted to go and hold his umbrella over me. I preferred the rain. O' I can't put it in words how I felt all evening. Before going to bed, I asked the Lord to protect me during the night, and he did. In my dreams all kind of enemies trying to destroy me and dreampt my room was shaking, and it shook so hard I awoke just as the preacher came in my room. I did not hear him open the door, it was about two steps to my bed when his hand touched the bed it woke me and the room was still shaking. Some unseen power raised my hand as he came to my head so it touched his face. If it had been a snake it would not have sent the horror as it did. I jumped and screamed for Pa. The preacher ran to his room. Ma came to my room and I told her he came in, she said O Giddie shurely you are mistaken, I said he did. She went told Pa, I dressed and went with them. Brother Joseph said he would not give 3 cents for the preachers life, but mother said do not stain your hands with blood. Pa sent him away in the rain and O so dark. It taken this to make Pa give his consent for me to come to Utah, said if he could not trust methodist, he could at least trust mormon elders.

After a weeks worth of trying to figure this out, I finally got the CVS version of Nucleus installed so I can use NP_Captcha to filter out comment spam. So, I have enabled comments once again on my blog and so far the plugin is working.
I'm almost finished with a complete rewrite of how Coaster handles data internally. I've also worked on removing the dependency on Bakery to make it easier for y'all to compile Coaster (sorry, Murray ). I should have a release by next week.

The Parkland softball team has played six of its last seven games at Allentown's Patriots Park and will get one more trip to 1027 W. Wyoming Street in Allentown on Monday afternoon.
Parkland got the surprising news on Friday morning it will be headed to Pates for its Class 6A semifinal against Neshaminy at 1 p.m. Monday with the winner going to Penn State for a 4 p.m. game Friday against either Nazareth or Hempfield Area.
While it is unusual for Pates Park to be used again for Parkland, it should be noted that the Trojans are a district champ and Neshaminy is a No 5 seed out of District One. Plus, the Redskins played at Pates on Thursday, routing Hazleton.
Parkland's graduation is Monday night and the PIAA doesn't want any event to inhibit kids from getting to special moments such as graduation.
And, the PIAA likes using a place like Pates Park as much as possible since it has amenities unlike most other softball venues.
The Blue Eagles, in the state semifinals for the first time since 2002, will be going to Chambersburg's Norlo Park for a 4 p.m. game.
Bethlehem Catholic is at least staying within District 11. The Class 4A district champion Golden Hawks will travel to Pine Grove Area High School to face District 2 runner-up Nanticoke Area at noon.
The PIAA state finals in 4A and 6A are set for Friday at Penn State with the 4A title game at 1:30 p.m. and the 6A championship to follow at 4.

The Swahili people comprise various groups who share common culture, language, and religion. Initially, East African hunters intermarried with Cushite shepherds, then as other groups began to intermarry and influence these people, the Swahili culture and traits began to develop and spread throughout Africa and the Person Gulf. Swahili groups primarily live in East Africa and work as traders or in business.
The Swahili are predominantly Muslim, and Islam is a major part of all aspects of their daily lives. Each town has the mosque as its center point, and young boys go to Islamic schools. They also attend non-religious schools to get a Western-style education. Western interest is bringing many modern ideas and aspects to their society. Like many cultures with pre-Islamic religion, remnants of previous beliefs exist such as the belief in spirits, witches, and sorcerers.
Engagement // What's Happening Now
Africa's Hope is working to make a resource available to African pastors called Muslim Ministry. The book is currently available in English, but they are working to make it available in Swahili. The purpose is to help train and equip pastors in East Africa to reach Swahili-speaking Muslims.
Sustainability // The Bigger Story
Across East Africa are thousands of Swahili groups, many of whom have not heard the gospel. AGWM Africa recognizes the great need for ministry in East Africa and in the article, "East Africa & Indian Ocean Basin," it is stated "We need pioneers, church planters, children's workers, trainers . . . just to name the basics; we need workers."
Partnership // Move Beyond
Please spend a few minutes in prayer for the following:
- Pray for spiritual freedom in the hearts of Swahili Muslims.
- Pray God will provide churches and workers with opportunities and ideas to reach Muslims in East Africa.
- Pray God will protect and empower Swahili Christians as they witness to their Muslim neighbors.
- Pray for Africa's Hope as they work to resource pastors with the tools to reach Swahili communities.'

John Southworth Niagara
Published Sep 26, 2014UK-born Toronto-based songwriter John Southworth's sprawling 11th album is called Niagara, after the region near the border in which he's spent most of his life. But it could just as easily have the words "dreams" or "love" in the title, as the record is as much (or more) preoccupied with them as it is with the falls themselves. In Niagara Falls, Southworth has found a metaphor malleable enough to play with various ideas: Canadiana, aboriginal versus western attitudes towards the land, bridging gaps, sharing dreams, mysticism and love.
The album is split in two the way the Canada/U.S. border splits the land: it starts on the Canadian side before crossing over to the American. And though the South Seas — a brilliantly sensitive yet idiosyncratic band of avant-jazz musicians with Felicity Williams on backup vocals — play on both sides, the Canadian side is dreamier and mellower (as Southworth puts it, "spacious") while some of the songs on the American side have more sting and sparkle.
Southworth's best songs tend to be evocative, romantic and whimsical, and there are a number of knockouts here: the euphoric build and release of "Ode To The Morning Sky"; the slow, dull, spiritual thud of Andrew Downing's acoustic bass on "Folk Art Cathedral"; the mystical, infinite yet minute lullaby that is "Irish Tree Alphabet" and Williams' breathy, Wurlitzer-chased lift-off at the end of closer "Loving You."
But there's also variety: "Hey I've Got News For You" is assertively American; the melody on "Womb Of Time" sounds like it's lifted from the American Songbook and Southworth sounds exhausted (but not in a bad way); and there's a Waits-ian groove on "Halloween Election."
It's dreamy eccentricity; a little crazy and courageous, and a strong statement. (Tin Angel)

Congressional commission finds negligence in Mexican mine disaster
October 5, 2007
MEXICO CITY: A congressional commission found that negligence contributed to a Mexican mining disaster that killed 63 men.
Operators of the Pasta de Conchos coal mine should have avoided a buildup of gases and coal dust by venting or sealing off affected areas before the Feb. 19, 2006, explosion, according to the report issued Thursday.
Sixty-three miners died. Only two of their bodies have been recovered.
"The disaster was caused in part by negligence and serious omissions by the operators of the mine, given that they did not comply in a timely way with measures demanded by labor authorities," according to a summary of the report issued by the lower house of Congress.
"There was also negligence and omission on the part of authorities at the Labor Department because they did not ensure the implementation of the measures" or order the mine closed, it said.
Grupo Mexico SAB de CV, the mine's operator, has insisted the mine met safety standards and denies allegations that safety precautions were ignored. It does not plan to reopen the mine once efforts to recover bodies conclude.
The congressional report was a finding only, and did not force authorities to take any specific action.
In April, a U.S. expert advised Grupo Mexico to halt recovery efforts, saying the mine is unstable and likely contaminated with toxic gas.
In March, a judge ordered five mine officials to stand trial on negligent homicide charges.

Shit, Rave Hardick calls me up and says he wants to come over and get fucked; I think I can work it in. I like the boy's energy and his exotic look, as well as his big cock. Deep throating me, he is one of the few guys I know who can get it all in. Sitting atop of me, Rave rocks forward so I can suck him, then rocks back and sides my cock in; damn I guess it's been a while as his enthusiasm is off the charts.
Eagerly using his hips, Rave just keeps fucking; I grab his cock and feel it throb. Ready to take over, I rim his hole and then use it well; Rave rolls with it, moaning in each position. Tapping out as I get close, I blow in and around his well-used winker; we are both exhausted.

|train tickets
|man - woman
How do people find cheap or discount train tickets to get around your city in your country? What about train tickets for popular destinations like New York City, London, France, or Japan? Do foreigners in your country have a difficult time using public transportation in major cities? Why or why not?
"catch a train" = get on a train
"I'm planning on catching the train at 3:10, so I don't want to be late."
"hold up traffic" = slow traffic
"The train tends to hold up traffic when it crosses this busy road in the morning."
A. Listen to the recording and answer the questions.
Man: Nah, I . . . I'm just looking . . . well . . . [Okay . . .] Uh, well, actually . . . yeah. Um . . . I want to go to the science museum.
Woman: Ah, well, just press this button. [Oh, yeah] And from here, it's a dollar fifty.
Woman: Then, get on the train at platform number 4.
Woman: Usually, they come about every six minutes.
Woman: Get off at State Street Station, three stops from here.
Do the vocabulary quizzes with the words from the conversation for more practice:
What kinds of public transportation do you have in your country and city? What are the advantages and disadvantages of using public transportation instead of taking your own car to get to school and work? Do universities or companies give their students or employees a pass for free? Discuss these ideas.
Imagine that you receive $3,000 to take a three-week vacation to one or more of these cities: Las Vegas, Hawaii, or Paris, and one city of your choice. Use the Internet to find out the cost of airfare and train/subway travel to get there from your current location. Compare prices from different travel companies.

Tips for Winter Immunity
The start of the holiday season is always a wonderful time of the year. As we get further into the holiday season however, stress builds, the weather cools, and nasty bugs tend to catch up with our busy lives forcing us to slow down. In fact, just this week I have had three colleagues who have come down with something. Although nearly all of us may catch a stray bug here and there, we can take many steps to help increase our immunity to avoid or even shorten illnesses. Use these tips daily, or even when you feel something coming on, to avoid illnesses during the holidays.
Eat for Wellness
This is one of the most important ways to support our immunity, year-round and against both acute illness and chronic disease. Following a healthy diet including a variety of fruits and vegetables, whole grains, proteins low in saturated fat, and healthy fats like nuts and seeds can help boost the health of your whole body. An abundance of vitamins and minerals commonly found in these foods are excellent for helping to reduce infections and avoid illnesses.
Manage Stress
Stress management is very important to managing illness. Although some levels of stress are OK, long-term stress can cause health issues. We know high levels of stress can become a precursor for various chronic diseases. When our body is stressed, we emit different chemicals than when we are in a relaxed state. If we become constantly stressed out, our immune system can weaken making us susceptible to the different bugs floating around during the season change. To manage stress, try going for a quiet walk or meditation. It's also important to have a strong network of social support, so take some time to be around those you love when you're feeling stressed out.
Get Plenty of Sleep
We need 6-8 hours of sleep to help our body recuperate from our busy schedules. Our immune systems function much better when we are well rested, so try to ensure you're getting adequate amounts of sleep and not staying up too late wrapping those holiday presents. Some tips to help you sleep better include going to bed and waking up at the same time ever day; practicing mediation or breathing exercises before bed; and avoid caffeine in the afternoon and evening.
Exercise for Immunity
It's important to exercise regularly to help release some of the stress we carry around throughout the day. Exercising can not only help improve your mood, but it also can enhance your body cells to recognize cells infected with a virus and try to eliminate them. This can just be 30 minutes of walking, biking, or playing a sport.

Quiet Cough Tincture
This is an extremely soothing and effective combination used for a dry, painful throat, spasmodic and unproductive cough, and respiratory congestion. These herbs have traditionally been used to help calm and quiet irritating, spasmodic coughs, while helping to promote expectoration. When taking this tincture, it is typical to experience one or two more good productive coughs followed by quiet relief. The little coughing that remains is productive, helping to clear lung congestion and keeping the fluids moving out. This is a very important factor, as many cough suppressants on the market stop coughing completely, which means that the fluids then collect in the lungs and can stagnate, sometimes becoming infected, which can lead to pneumonia. It's important to keep these fluids moving out of the lungs, and the Quiet Cough Tincture provides the perfect balance between expectoration and eliminating the unproductive and spasmodic cough. Needless to say, this is one of Herb Lore's most popular products. Kids love the non-alcohol version too!
Although Quiet Cough Tincture is not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women, the herb Mullein is an effective herb that can be used by those who are pregnant or nursing. Quiet Cough Tincture is also not for use by those with high blood pressure. Use for only two weeks at a time.
Organic Elecampane Root, Mullein, Coltsfoot, Marshmallow Root, Thyme, Licorice Root and Lobelia with a little Rescue Remedy Flower Essence added for extra calming. The regular tincture is extracted in organic grape alcohol and the non-alcohol version is extracted in organic vegetable glycerine and distilled water. All Herb Lore tinctures are non-GMO and are gluten-free.
Adults: Use 1-2 droppersful (squeezes) 3-4 times daily. Children: Use the age-appropriate dose 3-4 times daily. See the Children's Dosage Guide under More Information for recommendations. The non-alcohol version is best for children.
Pam, I just wanted to let you know that you & your team are so amazing! You are a very intelligent and thoughtful woman. I just checked my email & read your recent newsletter. I bought the Astragalus, Echinacea, Quiet Cough, & Cold & Flu tinctures earlier this month, and at first, I was a little bummed that I didn't know about the monthly discount code beforehand. Honestly, it's great stuff, works amazing & is worth every penny at full price! Especially after reading the information in the newsletter, you deserve the full price! I hope your day & your year is as beautiful as your heart is Pam. Love, M.C.
We've used your Cold and Flu Tincture and your Quiet Cough Tincture every winter. The boys rarely get sick, sometimes they even skip a year, but when they do I know that if I have your product on hand we will be well before morning! We always have your product on hand! The Quiet Cough is simply magical - it has helped me put the boys to sleep and catch some uninterrupted sleep myself. So very grateful for you! DG
Pam's tinctures, blog posts and Q&As have been such a Godsend as I've navigated the ups and downs of motherhood this year, and I am so deeply grateful for all that she does! I first discovered her products at Healthy Horizons in Burlingame when I was starting to get recurrent plugged ducts while trying to breastfeed my daughter, and my lactation consultant recommended Herb Lore's Poke Root tincture to me. It was hugely helpful in clearing up any plugs that I had going on, but unfortunately they started recurring more and more frequently and I eventually had to make the decision to wean my baby off and dry up the milk I was producing. I then switched to Herb Lore's Sage Tincture which helped me dry up safely, while continuing to nurse my baby as long as I could. After that I discovered her other non-alcohol based tinctures including Astragalus, Echinacea, Cold & Flu, Quiet Cough and also her Teething Tincture, and I love that I now have a natural, drug-free way to protect my family from all the germs and flu viruses around us especially during flu season. And of course with my baby's teething pains! Pam and her guidance, information and herbal tinctures have now become such a big part of my family's life and health that I don't know what I'd do without her. Thank you Pam! RJ

Miss KosmiK is pleased to open for Longwalkshortdock for her second time. The first time was in Nelson when touring with the Electronic Awakening documentary screenings tour. This show will be featuring RIM Visuals which brings the show to a very high level of entertainment.
Advance tickets are $10, available at Showpass.com and Stuntwood Skate Shop
It will be $15 at the door.
Longwalkshortdock esentially started the first time Dave King heard gritty electronic music in early eighties videogames. Strongly influenced by these sounds and melodys, Dave started recording and looping segments as a child. He also got a taste for sampling and recording; taping segments of his piano practice to fool his parents into thinking he was practicing in the other room when he was really playing Nintendo.
Dave holds two degrees from the Art Institute of Burnaby for Music Recording and Production. Playing songs and remixes he wrote and produced, Longwalkshortdock performs live PA with live vocals, synthesizers, drum machines, guitar, effects, toys, computers and even some of his own strobes and lighting. Known for his incredibly "enthusiastic" performances, Longwalkshortdock creates an undeniable stage presence and visceral experience at a show.
Currently, a veteran of sound design and electronic music production for well over a decade, Longwalkshortdock's music has stepped into a genre of its own. Heavily influenced by early 80s video game music, metal and rock music, found-sound and vintage analog synthesis, he stacks layers of melody in his tracks until they implode and reform. Heavy drums and aggressive synths join forces with rolling grooves and melodic lead lines to create a wide variety of slamming dance floor originals. LWSD's music crosses into many territories with his vast catalogue of hundreds of songs dives into ambient, IDM, electro, acid, house, big beat, indie rock, drones, electronica and down tempo.
Always working to enhance and upgrade the LWSD live experience Dave is currently in the process of collaborating with veteran of visual wizardry Tim Hill of RIM Visuals. Using at least 10 projectors loaded with custom content, the live LWSD experience is nothing short of a full venue transformation into a ethereal and immersive light cube of doom!
