Expert tricks to help you look wide awake and well rested -- even if you're not.
Boost your roots.
Applying liner at the base of lashes makes them look thicker. "It creates the same effect as the old wiggle-mascara-at-your-roots trick, without the mess," explains Raychel Wade, makeup artist for La Prairie in New York City. Using a fine-tipped pencil (or a freshly sharpened traditional one), dot the skin between each hair.
Feed your follicles.
When applied to lashes daily, prescription-strength Latisse ($100/month) "adds length and thickness in two months," says Elissa Lunder, MD, a dermatologist in Wellesley, Massachusetts, and a FITNESS advisory board member. Get the Rx from your doc, who can tell you about any side effects.
Layer your mascara.
Forget faux lashes -- swiping on two different formulas offers the same effect. "Use a thickening mascara, then a lengthening one," says Wade. Wait 45 seconds between coats to avoid clumps.
Two mascaras are better than one. Start with Maybelline New York Great Lash Big Mascara ($6.15, drugstores), then top it with CoverGirl LashBlast Length Mascara ($7.49, drugstores).

Say retinol.
Contrary to what you've heard, prescription retinoids like Renova should be used near the eyes. "Apply up to the lower lash line as well as to the sides," says Robert Guida, MD, a plastic surgeon in New York City. (Avoid upper lids, where skin is too thin.) If you're sensitive, downgrade to an OTC retinol.
Dr. Denese Wrinkle Rx Extreme Retinol Eye Gel ($49.50, qvc.com) contains retinol and vitamin C, another doc favorite for fighting sun-damaged skin.
Peel in the p.m.
Exercising outside sans sunscreen is a recipe for wrinkles. Pro peels, which stimulate collagen, are the best way to reduce lines, but at-home versions used twice a week can also be effective, Dr. Guida explains. Use as directed and apply at night so just-buffed skin won't be exposed to burning UV rays.
Pair cream with color.
Dry skin sucks up makeup, causing pigments to settle into creases and crow's-feet, says Wade. Pat on a pea-size drop of lotion first, blot with a tissue, then proceed with concealer.
Dab on Origins GinZing Refreshing eye cream ($29.50, origins.com) before your makeup.

Blend better.
Dark circles are mainly genetic, and camouflaging them can look cakey. The fix: Apply a thin layer of cover-up with a fluffy blending, not concealer, brush. "Its dome shape swirls on skin for an airbrushed finish," says Keri Blair, senior makeup artist for MAC in New York City. Do this after putting on foundation. "Base cushions concealer, so it slips on without tugging the delicate skin," Blair says.
To illuminate, blend Peter Thomas Roth Un-Wrinkle Conceal & Brighten ($35, peterthomasroth.com) with the MAC #217 Blending Brush ($22.50, maccosmetics.com).
Brush on bronzer.
Our faces cast shadows, and the eyes are a prime location for them. "Apply bronzer to your hairline and cheekbones," recommends Jose Rivera, lead makeup artist for Sephora's Pro Beauty Team. "The contrast shifts light to the eye area, so it looks brighter."
Darac Beauty Feature Focus ($39.50, daracbeauty.com) pairs bronzing cream with highlighter, great for neutralizing the eyes' bluish inner corners.
Stop the itch.
Got allergies? "Frequent rubbing can break the fragile capillaries around the eyes, causing undereye circles," says Yael Halaas, MD, a plastic surgeon in New York City. An antihistamine can help solve the discoloration problem.

Cleanse like a pro.
Slowly swipe a pad from the outer corners of your eyes to the inner corners, gently pressing on the tear duct for three seconds, says Philippe Allouche, creator of Biologique Recherche Skincare. The motion helps drain excess fluids, minimizing next-day puff. Also, avoid gel removers; their ingredients can sometimes cause swelling.
Ideal for sensitive eyes, Mary Kay Oil-Free Eye Makeup Remover ($14, marykay.com) gently cleanses.
Be cool.
Anything cold can nix inflammation, Dr. Lunder says. Place chilled spoons or green- tea bags soaked in cold water underneath eyes for 10 minutes. Even better: roll-on serums, which have cool, massaging tips.
Send bags packing with Neutrogena Instant Eye Reviver from Ageless Restoratives ($19.99, drugstores).
Skip the salt.
Foods with soy sauce and some soups can bring on bloat. Limit sodium to 1,500 to 2,300 milligrams a day. A workout can help too. "Sweating flushes out water, which will de-puff," Dr. Halaas says.

You've got: Translucent lids
The scoop: Your skin is on the sensitive side. "The thinner your skin, the less resilient it is to outside aggressors," says Kim Fair, head aesthetician at Depasquale Spa in Morris Plains, New Jersey.
Switch to: Fragrance-free face cleansers and creams as well as mineral-based eyeshadows; they're free of potential irritants such as perfume and synthetic pigments.
You've got: Itchy eyes after using a new mascara
The scoop: Your body may be sensitive to gluten. "Hydrolyzed wheat proteins, commonly used in beauty products, can cause a skin reaction in people who have an allergy to gluten," says Dr. Lunder.
Switch to: Wheat-free cosmetics and skincare products; read the ingredients lists before buying.
You've got: A tiny white pimple in your crease
The scoop: You're using creams and makeup that contain too much oil. "These blemishes are typically clogged pores called milia," Dr. Lunder explains.
Switch to: Products labeled "noncomedogenic" (aka, safe for pores); a hot compress will help draw out the plug in your skin.

Target is aiming to become consumers one stop shop by continuing with their price match program. Retailers use the price matching practice to attract holiday shoppers, but Target is going to try it all year long. It's a way for stores to attract savvy shoppers who are willing to do some digging to find the best deals.

This place is perfect if you're flying out early in the morning or coming in and want to rest for a day. E-mail the owner and she will pick you up at the train station and she will drop you back off whenever you like. Tons of free snacks, coffee, water etc. Some reviews say her English isn't good, but I never felt that. I didn't have a deep philosophical conversation with her, but we communicated perfectly about flights and anything I needed. Very nice lady.

A new development using genes from algae to engineer plants to store oils in their leaves could lead to what is viagra improvements in both biofuel production and only today generic form of cialis the manufacture of animal feed. Researchers from Michigan State University have made plants with oily leaves, which were demonstrated when worms fed these leaves grew fatter than worms fed the lowest cialis price unmodified version of the plants.
Most plant oils are stored in the seeds of viagra buy uk the plant, and can be difficult to extract. But plants that store oils in their stems and leaves can be more easily processed to extract those oils. They also may produce greater quantities of oil than the original plants.
In addition to the potential use in biofuels, producing plants that store more oils in their leaves could also be a benefit for animal feed. Greater nutrition density from the same amount of crop could help feed more animals from the same area of cropland.
The lead scientist, MSU professor of biochemistry and molecular biology Christoph Benning, stated, "Many researchers are trying to enhance plants' energy density, and this is another way of approaching it. It's a proof-of-concept that could be used to boost plants' oil production for biofuel use as well as improve the nutrition levels of animal feed."
Ongoing research will next move from demonstration of how to get viagra canada the concept to begin to order viagra no prescripion explore specific applications "to enhance oil production in grasses and algae that have economic value."

So how is God's church speaking to today's culture?
And how is the church hearing what the world is saying?
Critical issues and critical questions for a critical time.
This degree concentration seeks to assist people of all faiths to reflect critically on the public expressions of their faith traditions. It explores the emerging ways in which people live out their relationship to God and each other; the ways in which people understand their role in creation and the global community; and the ways in which both individual Christians and the church witness to the gospel in the world. This concentration prepares public ministers to participate in communicative practices shaped by myriad forms of media.
Gettysburg Seminary will offer "When 21st Century Media Meets Religion" taught by New York media professionals Eric Shafer and Mathew Tombers. The course is designed for a wider variety of church leaders, seminarians and others whose organizations rely on leadership in communication and media.
Gettysburg offers a religion and media concentration in its Masters of Arts in Religion degree program. The course is part of the more flexible January term in the Seminary's program, allowing for intensive and concentrated timing for classes. Shafer, Senior Odyssey Networks' Vice President and Tombers, Director of New Media, will help students to understand the landscape, figuring where you fit in, and maximizing 21st century media) in faith communities and public avenues. For more information, contact the Gettysburg Seminary Admissions office at firstname.lastname@example.com or 1800-MLUTHER ext 3008. More on this degree at http://www.ltsg.edu/academic-programs/Degree-programs/Concentrations/religionandmedia
http://www.ltsg.edu/Prospective-Students/Application-Forms. Please note the special instructions for Religion & Media candidates indicated on the application instructions. Any questions regarding the application should be directed to Julie Stecker, Associate Director of Admissions, at firstname.lastname@example.com or 800-MLUTHER (800-658-8437), Ext. 2232.
The degree requires a total of 51 credits:
• 37.5 credits of course work, including
o 3 credits in the Keynote Course
o 15 credits in an area of concentration
o 9 credits in a secondary area
o 10.5 credits as free electives
• 1.5 Credits Practicum in Theological Research (prerequisite for thesis)
• 12 credits in a Capstone Experience, which could be either:
o Thesis research and writing (which would include a final, oral defense of the thesis)
o A project or internship (which would include a final assessment of work completed as pertains to the degree and the concentration outcomes)
The Keynote Course will be offered yearly during the last two weeks of August. It serves as an entrance to this concentration and an opportunity to form relationships important to collegial learning as well as an introduction to the program and to the critical role social media play in effective communications.
This course introduces the landscapes of media culture with an emphasis on active engagement in creation within those landscapes, and it also engages important theological issues raised by and in those relationships. It examines how spiritual formation and theological reflection occur within media cultures, and raises questions around the promotion of faith in public life through media.
The total program should normally be completed within two academic years, although Gettysburg Seminary recognizes that some students in this concentration will of necessity be part-time and take longer. If the total program is not completed within four years, the student must petition the faculty for continuance in the degree program. Some of the courses will be offered in an on-line or intensive format.
Upon completion of this degree, student will

First of all, you need to understand that "with all his might" ("might" here is a noun, not a verb) is an adverbial phrase meaning "with all his power", so "with" is not connected with the preceding verb (i.e. "demand"). So the last part of the sentence should be read: "...to demand || with all his might || that which he desires". In other words, "demand" is the verb, "that which he desires" is the object (demand what?), and "with all his might" shows the way of demanding (how?)
"that which" means "the thing(s) which". It could also be expressed as "what" ("what" in this case being a relative pronoun, not a question word), but then it would be somewhat less emphatic.

The Missed Connections - Jarrod Matthew
My piece explores through the medium of glitch art the beauty of the missed connections portion of Craigslist. Everyone for the most part knows what Craigslist is, they think they know the kind of place it is, but how many have been to the missed connections section. For those who aren't familiar it's where a person is able to go in hopes of reconnecting with a person they were possibly too shy to talk to in some instant at a super market or something, maybe the conditions weren't right, one way or another they lost their chance to 'connect' with them. This is their second chance, their shot in the dark. If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?. If a person falls in love with a stranger because of the way they twirled their hair standing in the line for groceries, does it make it less real? It's far and few that they probably check the missed connections but stranger things have happened, and so what this page has become is this giant cache of people leaving messages about secretly admiring someone from across a restaurant. It's this concept of serendipity that maybe they could find one another again, that if it's meant to be then they will find one another and It won't matter that instead of talking to her you decided to dart your eyes away to the tabloid magazines in the aisle. What they'll do is list all these details to narrow it down, black nail polish, heart necklace, anything and I find it all incredibly fascinating, I have spent hours going through these ads because they are so raw and the persistence in the face of the odds is beautiful even if at the same time it's a little embarrassing we're all so afraid to talk to one another. So with The Missed Connections what I wanted to explore was the idea of a fleeting moment, memory, fear, anxiety, and the fracturing of our relationships to strangers who maybe didn't have to be a stranger.

UTV guided elk tours in Perry County & surrounding areas

Real Salt Lake players will scatter for their short offseason on Thursday, after finishing exit interviews with management and taking physicals.
The Major League Soccer playoffs ended for RSL last week, when Seattle defeated Real Salt Lake in a two-game aggregate series, 1-0.

|Post a Comment
RSL finished the regular season as the No. 2 seed in the Western Conference. But it failed to score in its last five games, including both playoff matches against the Sounders.
After MLS playoff losses in 2010 and 2011 and the failure to advance in this year's Champions League, Real Salt Lake could face major roster changes over the next two months. But midfielder Will Johnson believes RSL needs "just a few pieces" to remain among the league's top teams.
"I don't think we are far away," Johnson said. "... Some way, we've got to put [our] bitter disappointment aside and figure out how we can continue to improve. Every year we've gotten better — become more successful. We've gotten more points [and] become a better road team. So there are a lot of positives and I think there's a lot of drive left in this group. If we add a few pieces and manage to find a way to get better next year, we'll be in a good spot."
Veteran defender Jamison Olave agrees.
"I feel we played good this season," he said. "The last game, we missed a lot of opportunities. ... We just need to play like a team. We need to play together. [Playing] that way, we were champions in 2009."
Specifically, Johnson thinks RSL could use additional depth along its back line, where injuries took a toll this season. An attacking midfielder might help energize the attack, he said. So would some help for high-scoring forwards Alvaro Saborio and Fabian Espindola.
Mostly, however, Johnson hopes RSL can improve from within.
"We all just need to chip in a little more," he said. "We have the group that can do it, and with a little more competition on the squad, it will push everybody to become a little more aggressive."
Real Salt Lake opens training for the 2013 season in late January before participating in the Desert Diamond Cup in Tucson. Seattle, New England and New York will also play in the round-robin preseason tournament, which runs Feb. 13-23.
For now, Johnson's priority is spending time with his family, especially his young daughter.
"Just try and take it easy," he said. "Get away from the game a little bit. Don't think too much about it. Refresh mentally as well as physically. Take some time off ... and chill out. We're so busy during the summer, we miss out on a lot of events — family stuff. So for me it's going to visit everyone, checking in, catching up, enjoying Thanksgiving and Christmas."
After the most injury-plagued season of his career, Olave plans to spend most of his offseason in Utah.
"I had a lot [of injuries]," he said. "It never happened in my life before. The first time was now. So I will work hard to keep a strong body."

Wouldn't mind the fees if you didnt have to pay for the program up front. And that update servers cuts my connection do to lag every update, never mind I can download whole games through Steam. And if the Kickstarter is a clue, the cost is ~$35. That's the first tier that actually gets you a copy of the game. If they add some backer rewards, I might jump on, as it is, I'm not.

Got a quick question for all of you:
I love the 5/3/1 workout. I'm getting stronger (even while on a cut [although now I'm more at maintenence than anything]). But it's getting stale. I have a really bad habit of sticking with a workout for 8 weeks only to get bored with it and move on to the next one.
I should also note that I absolutely hate doing cardio as far as steady state. I can stand to do sprints a little bit and stadium stairs and tire flips and tire tosses and those kinds of things, but really, those aren't much fun either.
A week ago, I did the 300 workout just for the hell of it, and I loved it. I felt great after I did it. Which led me to do some research on complexes.
Is there any good way to keep the 5/3/1 program with maybe one assistance exercise (heavy weight, anyways) and add in barbell complexes? Obviously I'd remain light, but this would be something that would challenge me and really make me value the conditioning aspect of a workout...
Something about doing a complex makes me actually feel like I'm getting stronger (even if I'm not by much) rather than wasting away doing cardio. Has anyone toyed with this kind of training before?
I'm sure I'd be completely gassed after each workout and I'd probably want to raise my cals a bit...
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks ahead of time!
EDIT: I wasn't sure where to put this. This forum seemed to make the most sense because it involved complexes and weight training, but it could have went into GPP and Sport Specific as well. Sorry if I posted in the wrong place.

A man suspected of exposing himself to victims in South Bend has become known as the "East Race Flasher." Now, police say he is behind bars.
The South Bend Police Department made the announcement via Twitter late Saturday night.
Turns out, the "flasher" is a previous sex offender out on parole.
Curtis Nipper, 43, is a suspect in at least four incidents that have taken place over the last two weeks.
Nipper was released from prison in February. He was convicted of child molesting in 2007.
"The fourth of July he took it a step further where it wasn't just simply exposing himself, he actually approached a couple of elderly females naked and grabbed the butt of one of the females," says South Bend Police Lt. Joseph Galea.
Police officers in plain clothes set out to do some surveillance on Nipper Saturday. One officer spotted a man that matched the suspect's description. When they got close to him, the man took off on his bicycle. An officer eventually caught up with him near LaSalle and Main.
Officers contacted Nipper's parole officer and informed him of the parole violation. Nipper is being held at the St. Joseph County Jail.
"When you deal with someone who has been in prison, who has a bracelet on and is down doing these things, it's very disturbing sometimes," says Derek Dieter.
"This is one of those instances where we had the information, we had the overtime patrols going, we had a great job by the afternoon shift when we called out where this person was and then stopping him and getting all of the information, so every different part of the police department worked very well to catch him".
Lt. Joseph Galea tells Newscenter 16 that there could be more victims out there.
The case has been handed over to the prosecutor's office for review.

DoL Inspector General Finds OSHA SST Program Needs Improvement
The Department of Labor's Office of Inspector General (OIG) undertook a performance audit of OSHA's site-specific targeting (SST) program. The audit found that SST inspections excluded some of the highest risk industries and worksites where the most serious injuries and illnesses occurred because certain high-risk worksites were outside the scope of the SST program and targeted worksites were not always inspected. The OIG found that 26 percent of worksites with reported severe injuries and illnesses were outside the program's scope based on their number of employees, location and/or industry. Also, 84 percent of targeted worksites were not inspected due to limited resources and competing local priorities and other targeting strategies. OSHA conducted SST inspections at 21 percent of SST targeted worksites. State plan states conducted SST inspections at 6 percent of worksites that met the Federal targeting criteria.
The OIG made three recommendations: (1) include the highest risk worksites in the ODI survey and the SST program targeting; (2) prioritize and complete inspections of the highest risk worksites to ensure effective and efficient use of resources; and (3) complete the evaluation of the SST program, and implement a monitoring system to evaluate efficiency and effectiveness on an on-going basis. In his response to the draft report, the Deputy Assistant Secretary partially agreed with the recommendations but indicated some would require major policy changes with evaluation and supportive evidence. You can find the report at http://www.oig.dol.gov/public/reports/oa/2012/02-12-202-10-105.pdf.

FDA Halts Mid-Stage Study of Recombinant Hyaluronidase in Pancreatic Cancer
Thromboembolic events raise concerns
The FDA has informed Halozyme Therapeutics, Inc. that a clinical hold has been placed on patient enrollment and dosing of PEGPH20, an investigational recombinant human hyaluronidase, in an ongoing phase II trial evaluating PEGPH20 in patients with pancreatic cancer. According to the FDA, this action was taken in view of the company's recent decision to temporarily halt enrollment and dosing of PEGPH20 in the study.
Halozyme is gathering information relevant to assessing the possible difference in the thromboembolic event rates between patients treated with PEGPH20 versus patients treated without PEGPH20 in the trial. The company will provide this information to the study's data monitoring committee and to the FDA in parallel so that they can complete their respective assessments.
Certain cancers, including pancreatic, breast, colon, and prostate, have been shown to accumulate high levels of hyaluronan (HA). Aberrant accumulation of this component of the tumor's infrastructure supports a protective network or "halo" that surrounds certain tumors. This pathologic accumulation of HA along with other matrix components also increases tumor interstitial fluid pressure, thereby constricting tumor vasculature and creating a unique microenvironment for the growth of tumor cells compared with that of normal cells. These mechanisms generate barriers to drug delivery that inhibit the potential effectiveness of many anticancer agents. According to Halozyme, dismantling the HA component of the tumor architecture disrupts this tumor microenvironment and opens the previously constricted vessels, which may increase blood flow to the tumor. This may allow cancer therapies to be more efficiently delivered to their target and thus may be more effective.
Halozyme's FDA-approved Hylenex recombinant human hyaluronidase (rHuPH20) is administered subcutaneously, and temporarily and reversibly degrades HA to facilitate the absorption and dispersion of other injected drugs or fluids and for subcutaneous fluid administration. However, rHuPH20 acts only locally at the injection site, is rapidly inactivated in the body, and does not survive in the blood. Halozyme has developed an investigational PEGylated form of rHuPH20, PEGPH20, which increases the half-life of the compound in the blood and allows intravenous (IV) administration.
Halozyme is currently conducting clinical trials with PEGPH20 in the treatment of solid tumors. In these studies, a dose of oral dexamethasone, a steroid, is administered to all patients before and after IV administration of PEGPH20 to minimize the side effects of PEGPH20.
Preliminary efficacy and safety results from a single-arm phase I trial were presented at the 2013 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting. In this study, the overall response rate (ORR; complete response + partial response) by RECIST 1.1 criteria was 42% (95% confidence interval, 22% to 62%) for those treated at therapeutic dose levels of PEGPH20 (1.6 and 3.0 mcg/kg), as assessed by an independent radiology review (n = 24).
In addition, in subjects with high levels of HA, the ORR was 64% (seven of 11 subjects with available biopsy). Moreover, 43% (six of 14 subjects) experienced a reduction of at least 70% in serum carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA 19-9), a biomarker that often correlates with tumor cell burden.
As a result, Halozyme initiated the new phase II, randomized clinical trial evaluating PEGPH20 as first-line therapy in approximately 124 patients with stage IV metastatic pancreatic cancer. The patients received gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel with or without PEGPH20. The primary outcome was progression-free survival between patients who were given PEGPH20 and those who were not.

The Thanksgiving holiday is all about expressing gratitude, but let's be frank: it centers around perhaps the most sumptuous meal we eat all year. Fo...
Deep-Dish pizza is a tourists long-awaited first bite, a city transplants new love, yet consistently a Chicagoans last option. Although just as delicious, many Deep-Dish experiences result in a post Deep-Dish coma.
Are you ready to eat the most blasphemous burger burger in America? Chicago's infamous metal-themed burger joint, Kuma's Corner, recently rolled out their monthly special, this time named 'The Ghost Burger.'
Any Chicagoan can see that the closest body of water is not anywhere you'd want to go fishing. Still, here are some spots in Chicago that take large measures to serve up solid seafood options year round.
Why is it so damn hard to find a decent Chicago-style pizza outside Illinois?
The Windy City's location on the shores of Lake Michigan makes for some great views from many of Chicago's restaurants. We've selected 10 dining establishments that all feature food worthy of being accompanied by such majestic vistas.
I've been on a five-year quest to bring the freshest seafood in America to Chicago. The East Coast, however, has proved a tough riddle to crack. So when my alarm sounded at 2:30 a.m., I had no problem rising. I was on my way to New York City's Hunts Point Fish Market to solve the puzzle.
Since opening in 2011, Chicago's NEXT restaurant has changed its entire concept nine times. It's a formula that seems to be working.
Chicago is a food town that has an almost allergic reaction to pretension. Restaurants that make it here can't rely solely on brand name decorators, media hype or reality-TV chefs. They have to be the real deal, serving great food, or they don't stay in business.

NASHVILLE (BP) -- My worst Christmas ever? Well, here's how it happened. When I was growing up, my family had a television and appliance store. Most of the time, we worked until 8 p.m. or later on Christmas Eve, helping "Santa" deliver new televisions, stereos, washers and dryers.
When we finally closed the store and got home, Christmas Eve was family time. We would eat, tell stories and open presents. My family is not much on hoopla. My parents grew up in the Great Depression, so money was never wasted. Every dollar spent had to have a purpose. If you gave a gift, the gift had better make sense.
So, the things on our Christmas lists were things we needed. This particular year, mom told me she needed a robe, and she told me exactly which robe she needed at J.C. Penney. I got her the robe. I bought it with my own money. It was a snazzy red, white and blue polyester robe -- classy but practical.
I wrapped it and put it under the tree. I had taken care of my Christmas shopping with my own money by driving to the mall by myself. I was becoming a man, and I took care of my own business.
Mom taught the senior adult ladies' Sunday School class at our church. She called the class "the DMA (Don't Mention Age) class," and they loved my mom. That Christmas, the ladies gave my mom a present. You guessed it: a robe. Not just any robe, mind you, a hand-embroidered, silk velour robe.
It was time to open our presents that Christmas Eve, and mom said, "Did you see what my Sunday School class gave me?" As she pulled the robe from its box, I felt my heart fall on the floor. My robe looked like the cheap, tacky polyester monstrosity it was.
What was I going to do? It was too late to run back to the mall and exchange it for something else. I dreaded the moment she opened my present. In fact, I pushed it back under the tree until it was the last present. I couldn't put off the moment any further. She opened it. I was mortified.
I told mom I had saved the receipt just like she had taught me if she wanted to exchange it. Then, mom did what only a mom can do. She knew just what to say. "Mike, the robe my Sunday School class gave me is beautiful, but you gave me a robe I can use every day. I can't cook or clean in that robe, but I can in the one you gave me."
I don't know if she meant it or if she was just trying to make me feel better. All I know is it worked. Every time I saw my mother wearing my robe I was proud I had given her something she could use.
Maybe Jesus is the same way. Maybe, like my mom, what Jesus really wants for Christmas is something He can use, not something extravagant. The apostle Paul tells us there are many kinds of vessels in a household. Some are exquisite and designed for particular purposes. Other vessels are for everyday use, and maybe that's us.
I love hearing missionary stories, but sometimes Jesus wants someone who'll go to the hospital and visit a sick friend rather than a country across the ocean. We want to give exorbitant cathedrals and buildings to better reflect His glory, and what He really wants is for us to buy a cup of coffee for a friend who's broken, confused and trying to find his way home.
Maybe this Christmas, Jesus wants a gift He can use -- someone who will minister in the ordinary moments of everyday life. We all want to give something He'll never forget, and He won't if we give Him something He'll use every day.

Eric Schmidt just may be the world's most powerful CEO. He is not the highest-paid CEO and the company he heads is not the largest in size. Schmidt's vast power stems from the fact that he controls the largest collection of personal data ever amassed. Eric Schmidt is CEO of Google, and the universe of information over which he holds sway is chock-full of deeply personal data on untold millions of individuals, companies, and even government agencies.
In addition to being the world's largest Internet search engine, Google provides email and instant-chat services. It manages business documents and personal voice mails. Subscribers can use "Google Health" to store and share their most intimate medical records.
Even a user of basic Google services who has established a profile with the company (either by an email or YouTube account, or through Google Checkout), can log in to their "Dashboard" and view their latest searches, purchases, videos they have viewed, or chats in which they have participated. It's all there; whether they want it to be or not.
Many, if not most Americans in this post-911 world, appear to have concluded that they "have nothing to hide" and in order for government to "make us safer," they willingly submit to all manner of privacy-invasive government programs. Moreover, in order to save a few seconds or minutes of their time, American consumers eagerly rush to sign up for other measures that surrender more of their privacy, to businesses.
However, if focused on the possibility of having their Internet search history released to the world, many Americans might give pause.
Personal privacy is the cornerstone of dignity and self-respect. In fact, as recognized by 20th Century philosopher and novelist Ayn Rand, privacy is the underpinning of civilization itself – the right of one man to be free from other men.
Unfortunately in today's socially-networked world, and especially for young people, many millions of Internet users believe their identity is secure and their privacy protected simply because they use a screen name or email address. Thanks in large part to Google's "free" programs and services, that is no longer the case.
As a player in the free market system, Google is responsible for many innovations. From its search algorithms to its mapping of planet Earth and the heavens, the company is owed a profound level of academic, engineering and scientific respect.
However, the company is inching ever faster and further away from its motto, "Don't be evil," as reflected in a recent interview in which CEO Schmidt was asked about privacy by CNBC's Maria Bartiromo. He responded:
If you have something that you don't want anyone to know, maybe you shouldn't be doing it in the first place. If you really need that kind of privacy, the reality is that search engines — including Google — do retain this information for some time and it's important, for example, that we are all subject . . . to the Patriot Act and it is possible that all that information could be made available to the authorities.
Those words are deeply disturbing. Schmidt apparently believes that "you shouldn't be doing" anything you would want to keep private; in other words, there is no right to privacy. He seems also to embrace the notion that the government should have access to any information it wants.
Putting Schmidt's philosophy in real terms, a hospice patient who wants to privately explore alternative medicine "shouldn't be doing" that. An abused wife privately seeking counseling or help shouldn't be seeking it if she wants to keep her struggle private.
If Google's attitude toward personal privacy spreads, and many fear that is already too late, we will become a world in which all walls – real or virtual – are replaced by windows; a world in which thoughts of personal dignity are nothing more than quaint nostalgia.

If you remember a few years ago someone got access to and leaked AOLs search record data, which was a great source of keyword information for marketers but also allowed you to identify users by a number (not their actual identity) and see what terms they had searched for.
It was creepy because in some cases you could see a single user looking up murder weapons, how to dispose of bodies, etc. But still, there has never been true privacy on the internet. All it takes is a subpoena and with the Patriot Act less for the right people.

No, Mr. Barr, that's not what Mr. Schmidt is saying. He's saying that as our society embraces technology we tend to forget how easily that technology also allows others to find out what we are doing and saying. Virtually no technologies that people use daily are used in a manner that ensures the communications and actions can remain the private business of those using them. Some are intentionally public, some seem private but are easily made public (voicemail, text message, IM, email).
I'd be surprised if Google wants to turn over its data to anyone, that's where they make their money. But Mr. Schmidt is acknowledging the reality that the Patriot Act (that you voted for) can reach into many places and get data that would otherwise be (mostly) private. Your ire should be at best be directed inward or at the Department of Justice, not Google.

"…privacy is the underpinning of civilization itself – the right of one man to be free from other men."
Bob, are you (and Ayn Rand) saying that there should be (or is ) a "right to privacy" in the Constitution? Does the Ninth Amendment – "The enumeration in the Constitution of certain rights shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people." – mean that there is a right to privacy in the Constitution?
If there is a right to privacy in the Constitution, this would make provisions of the Patriot Act unconstitutional. This would also make Roe v Wade constitutional as Roe was decided on a right of privacy originally recognized by the court in Griswold.
Now you have people who call themselves conservative opposing the Patriot Act, as a privacy issue. Others who call themselves conservative support the Patriot Act, as a personal safety issue.
Some who call themselves conservative oppose Roe v Wade. Other conservatives support the Wade decision as a privacy issue.
The court has been dodging the privacy issue for years. It is time for the court to address the Ninth Amendment. But do not hold your breath, it has taken the court over 200 years to address the Second Amendment
application to the states.

I think you read too much into Scmidt's statement. He just stated the obvious to me. I look at his statement this way, "If you don't want a sex tape of you on the internet, either don't tape it or maintain a copy in your private vault."
Google doesn't owe you privacy. Do you get privacy at McDonalds? They are both privately owned companies. Just because you are in your home when you use one doesn't make them different. If you don't want Google to know what you are doing, go to the library and use public computers or try using the good old fashioned telephone can phone book to do what you want (as long as there isn't a warrant for a wire tap).

Personnaly I'm ok with google information in the hands of a private company. Knowing that this situation is only a senate or house vote away from the government taking the information is scary.
My wife and I were talking about Google just yesterday. What if the government decided to build a similar database? It would cost trillions, and probably wouldn't work, leaving the lawyers and academics scratching their collective heads as they do often today. Google did it and makes a fortune in the process.
This should be a lesson to all of us.

Bob, you're starting to sound a bit "chicken little". I don't know that the Constitution guarantees "personal privacy" and there is no way the Founding Fathers could have anticipated the creation of the internet, social networking sites, search engines, internet cookies, etc. "privacy" is the first casualty of technology. if people want privacy they can throw away their cell phones, computers and credit cards. the government AND commerce are the antithesis of "personal privacy". enough with the Ayn Rand deficiation. it has been established (historically and via this blog) that she was a purveyor of fiction and labeling her a "philosopher" is insulting to "real men of genius" (see: Bud Light ads). ALL Americans would do well to be judicious when employing technology for work and play, but the fact remains, it's here to stay and if the government can use information to serve its own needs (control, taxation, consolidation of power), it will. again, this is nothing new.

A very timely piece from M. Barr today! There IS a record of websites we've visited. Google knows if we've been naughty or nice!
Boy, am I glad I never clicked on any of those pop-up goat porn ads.
Concerning privacy, Ayn Rand wrote, in her novel, "Fountainhead", "You better watch out! Better not cry! And don't even think about pouting!
I'm telling you why, the epistemological constraints of Existentialism is why. Do I have to do all your thinking for you? None of you deserve any goodies or toys."

As a long-time computer services professional, I am alarmed at the kind of personal information and opinion people are offering to the world, either with or without their knowledge.
I started publishing on-line blog comments, reviews, etc, under an alias about a year ago. I changed my real name to my alias on several sites. As Google gradually updated its content, my real name started showing up less and less in searches.
Then, to my dismay, I found older content posted under my real name that had been cross posted to other sites that I had no affiliation with. There is no way to remove or change this information. Fortunately, I do not have any real concerns about the content.
On a related topic, I spent over two hours this weekend on Facebook trying to understand and reestablish privacy settings for what had become "publicly available information" or "PAI," as the result of Facebook recently "improving" its privacy policy and settings.

Barbara and other "Ayn Rant" worshippers; you are correct. I did not "study" Ayn Rand. I studied American History. I've read Rand and find her musings to be so much adolescent pining. FYI, I am of the opinion that Ted "Suess" Geisel's ficiton is much better. Question: If "self-interest" is all that matters, why shouldn't Google, or the FBI or Bank of America gather as much information as it can? There is a word for those who think their own (individual) self-interests to be supreme. It's called pathological narcissism. This infantile pining for a world were individual performance is rewarded and malfeasance is punished "by the market" is about as realistic as Dr. Suess, and as stated, I think Suess had a better take on the nature of man. But don't take my word for it. Thomas Paine called out "government" before we had a (U.S.) government. He didn't write novels or screenplays or blogs… He wrote essays and papers. Here's something Ayn Rand seems to have missed; The Constitution exists for the benefit of the government, not for the benefit fo Sheeple like Rand. It is a card trick, an illusion to make dreamers like Rand believe they have control over their lives. It's better than most card tricks, but it's still a trick, and while Rand may have been "free" to bloviate about what is wrong with everyone but her, as I have suggested, "…if ifs and buts were cherries and nuts…"

If it had not been for Google, I would not have realized that Ave. federal Govt. salaries are now $71,206 while average private sector salaries are $40,331. This does not include $41,000 per year in benefits for the feds.
I like Google, but I do see how a database this comprehensive would be tempting to our government. I,m sure one day they will claim that this database is too important and sensitive to be trusted to private enterprise.

I wonder how many of us googled Ayn Rand to find some angle of attack on Bob Barr's piece that would have trashed him but good. He was probably just waiting in ambush for anyone dumb enough to pretend to be conversant enough in Ayn Rand to try to challenge him. It is very easy to make a total fool out of yourself by venturing into the Ayn Rand arena. (Most people even mispronounce her pseudonym. I found that out on the google links, btw.)
Ayn Rand analysis is some really tough sledding, and the words that critics use to describe her body of work are self-perpetuating, that is, the very words Ayn Rand used to describe the real-world distractions challenging the accuracy of perceiving the world are the ones the critics use to debunk or support her philosophy.
See what I mean? I have no idea what I just said.
I think Bob Barr was setting us all up by using the cheapest Ayn Rand quote he could find. Her only remarks about privacy, if google is correct, were part of a novel's narrative, so one should only use it to critique the artistic value of her ideas. Bob Barr probably did his doctorate thesis in Ayn Rand and was hoping to pounce on anyone's torpedo. That's probably how he made it into the CIA – nobody knew what the hell he was talking about.
Sure am glad I didn't fall for it.

Back when you were campaigning for president I remember writing that letter to youtube AKA google about Showing your name on the presidential candidate page using their old motto "don't be evil" Which has obviously has changed. I don't like the idea of them having some of my information, but they do offer quite good services. Their search engine is so powerful because it knows what sites your like. The homage has one convenient place for all the RSS feeds. It is definitely a great site that there is no close substitute to. I'd rather keep my data on a unix based server than use Bing from Microsoft.
By the way has anyone looks at Google's old master plan whiteboard, http://undergoogle.com/tools/GoogleMasterPlanEN.html Quite scary what can now be checked off about 3 years after this was posted.

Use http://www.cuil.com instead. They do not keep your searches.
From their website:
Cuil analyzes the Web, not its users
Privacy is a hot topic these days, and we want you to feel totally comfortable using our service. Because Cuil analyzes Web pages and not click-throughs, we don't need to know your search history and habits. So our privacy policy is very simple: when you search with Cuil, we do not keep any personally identifiable information, period. We have no idea who sends queries: not by name, not by IP address, and not by cookie. Your search history is your business, not ours. We don't need to keep logs of our users' search activity, so we don't. For further details, read our Privacy Policy. Don't worry, it's short and to the point. No legal mumbo-jumbo.

Sometimes it seems like the attorneys, particularly the defense attorneys, would like a jury full of people who have no opinion or who have lived under a rock for the past decade.
While you sometimes hear experts bemoan the staggering number of uninformed Americans, you'll hear just the opposite complaint in U.S. District Court these days.
Here, potential jurors are routinely challenged to prove that any opinion they may have of Kwame Kilpatrick or his three co-defendants won't unfairly prejudice them during the trial. If anyone has read, seen or heard anything about Kilpatrick or his cohorts, they are made to feel like they could never fairly render a verdict.
It often seems to those of us in the pews that the lawyers are looking for zombies.
Zombies sure do seem to be in vogue now -- along with vampires and werewolves with great abs -- but the real goal in this game is not to find people who cannot be influenced. It's to find people who have yet to be influenced.
As Judge Nancy Edmunds has repeatedly pointed out, there's nothing wrong with having an opinion – as long as you can set it aside and view the evidence objectively before reaching a verdict.
Ironically, the same attorneys griping that potential jurors are lying when they say they don't have an opinion of Kilpatrick are the same attorneys who pounce on any juror who shares even the mildest opinion of the former mayor.
During a break in the lawyers' search for the next zombie last week, Kilpatrick showed that he has an eye for bloodsuckers.
[Since the lawyers have savaged the media throughout the jury screening process, feel free to insert your favorite "lawyers are bloodsuckers" joke here.]
Hizzoner turned to a nice-looking young man sitting behind him, who works for one of the lawyers, and told him: "You kinda look like a vampire … A daywalker."
It was meant to be a compliment.

ALMIRA, Wash. -- A mother from Almira is heading to Texas in late June to shave her head for cancer awareness.
Carla Hood's son died while battled cancer. He was fighting acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
Hood recently joined 46 Mommas: Shave for the Brave. The team of mothers meets June 30th in San Antonio to shave their heads for the annual awareness event. This is the fourth year for the event.
The team represents the reality that on average 46 families each weekday receive the news that their child has cancer, said organizers.
The 46 Mommas team was created in 2010 with a goal of raising $1 million for pediatric cancer research. Organizers said the group raised more than $1.08 million to date.
The 2013 team includes parents from 20 states and Canada.
