MABTBtAVIBIJS, LA., EBB. 9, 1893. Ebitob SsisrnKBL}'Glare: Dear Sir;—I received a copy of your paper and it made me home-sick when I read so many familiar*-names in the locals. If we had a few such newsy republican papers here it would open peoples5 eyes. Nearly everybody here is a democrat and for no better reason than that his father was one. One of your items states -that a good many people who leave -Michigan are glad to get back, and I can say there are not- many better states in the Union, and I have been in aearly all of them. Some Clare people think they would like to be in the {%ramy south.5J Well, it is a little plea^anter in the winter, but there is not one in a thousand woialdlikeit In summer. This has been one of the finest winters known in the state. There was a little snow on the gronMl about twenty miles north of here, but only a few flakes of the beautiful visited us. It has been no colder he_e so far than it was in Clare last October., People in the north think that southern folks do not suffer with cold, but the natives here have to dress as warm as you do, or stay in the house, which most of them do, whieh is only a little better than being but doors as a rule, for their houses generally are so open that you can almost throw the traditional cat through the cracks. There is plenty of government land a few miles from this place in the long leaf pinesounfe-y, also some excellent farming land in the Creek bottoms that can be homesteaded yet. This would be a good location for market gardeners could they get reasonable rates from the railroads. The people here kn©w very little about raising anything but corn and cotton. They could have nearly all kinds of garden truck any time of the year if they had half the ambition of a northern farmer. - But do not think that this is a paradise, for there is a good deal to: contend with—dry weather, late- frosts, etc., to say nothing of insects, such as mosquiffeoes, fleas,*. ticks, chiggers? knats and stinging lizards, which are about the only things that can get a move on the natives, unless it ds. a horse swap, A good many northern men are , working in the woods here and are getting rich, but not so fast as the old- time MicMgan lumberman did. There is a vast amount of timber in this state,such as long leaf rosemary/heart, pine, oak, white ash, gum, cypress, with quite a sprinkling of walnut in some places. -Cypress grows in the low swampy ground and it is a very malarious and unhealthful place to work, in summer. I hafe been hewing railroad ties for two weeks, with only •undershirt and light trousers on, and the perspiration'flows-as it does in Bpid-sraniaer. Wages range from $1.50 to $2.50 per day and "feed yourself" as the Sfegroes say. - As this is my flrst letter to an editor I think I wiU close for this time, with this advice to my old friends and every one in Michigan: Do not sell your lit-I tie property and go to some new- place you have heard of. If you, think you can do better some other pla_-$, leave your family behind well prepared, if you have one, and then go and look at it. The chances are you will be better satisfied with Michigan and its people than any place you can And. ■ I have seen so many people who have been quite well off, move $;q other statenand before $hey could find a place to suit .them, would spend all they had then have to start Over again. As it is getting late and the pine knot fire I am writing this by is going out, 1 will close for this time. i The BAMBitBK Ekom Clai£b. -1 -- *, a 3Mess00mt *€,« A» K». rtlie aB-BfssI encampmeat of the zZApAv of MicMgan G-, A. fjL to !# at Bsntoji Harbor March 7th, zid C-CJ2,189STtfce T. & A.

The Cleaver, (Harrison) is having a hard winter according to the following: . "With justice court in session in the next room, the small end of a brass band on the floor below, a howling blizzard on the outside, and wet hemlock wood in the stove, it would not be surprising if some of the Cleaver force were driven to some desperate act if this state of ^affairs exists for many days more." uu Y'@U Almost Perish©*!. Harrison Cleaver: Chas. Peek, father of Mrs. Jos. Worden of this city, and who resides near "Upton, had a miraculous escape last week Thursday from death by freezing. During the day a terrific storm raged and the mercury was below zero- lir. Peck's herd 'of cattle had wandered from home and being alarmed least they might perish in the storm, he started about noon on foot in search of them. Efot until nearly night did he find any traces of them and that was three or four miles from home. The extreme cold and heavy snow through which he traveled had rendered him weary* About dark he was taken with & severe chill, and only hy the greatest exertion could he force himself forward. He realized that he was perishing from uhe cold, and his only thought was to reach the road leading to this city where he could be found by some traveler, as he did not realize he was near his own home. Upon reaching the road he sank from exhaustion and was only aroused by hearing a faint call from his wife. Being so .much exhausted he could not answer nor could he walk, so creeping upon his hands and knees he reached his home. Upon crossing the threshold he became unconscious and only after several hours hard work by his wife did he regain his senses. His face and ears were frozen and it was some time before he could get about his work again. Vh& TroMhlHost Convention.

The other day, I was troubleshooting a deadlock, and I wondered if any of the table's columns were referenced by any foreign keys (fks) from any other tables in the instance.
Well, this is actually very simple with information_schema (I_S):
SELECT * FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.KEY_COLUMN_USAGE WHERE REFERENCED_TABLE_NAME='parent';
Where `parent` is the name of the table you're searching for.
Note this query does not restrict on the database, or schema, name, but that could easily be added (or any other number of conditions). Here is an example where I only return the most useful columns (which could be useful for determining said conditions):
SELECT CONSTRAINT_SCHEMA, CONSTRAINT_NAME, TABLE_SCHEMA, TABLE_NAME, COLUMN_NAME, REFERENCED_TABLE_SCHEMA, REFERENCED_TABLE_NAME, REFERENCED_COLUMN_NAME FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.KEY_COLUMN_USAGE WHERE[Read more...]

Cervical Cryosurgery
The cervix is the lower portion of the uterus (womb) that is located at the top of the vagina. Cervical cryosurgery is the use of extreme cold to freeze areas of the cervix.
Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
Reasons for Procedure
This procedure is done to destroy and remove abnormal cells of the cervix, particularly precancerous cells.
Possible Complications
Complications are rare. However, no procedure is completely free of risk. If you are planning to have this procedure, your doctor will review a list of possible complications. These may include:
- Dizziness, fainting, hot flashes (during or right after the procedure)
- Cramping (during the procedure)
- Bleeding
- Infection
- Scarring or narrowing of the cervical opening
Factors that may put you at risk for complications during this procedure include:
What to Expect
Prior to Procedure
You may want to plan for someone to drive you home.
Normally, no medicines are needed for this procedure. However, pain medicines such as ibuprofen (for example, Advil), naproxen (for example, Aleve), or acetaminophen (for example, Tylenol) are usually taken. They should be taken about an hour before your appointment. Ask your doctor if this is recommended for you.
Description of Procedure
You will lie on an exam table with your feet in foot rests, as you would for a pelvic exam. A device called a speculum is inserted into the vagina to hold it open. The cryosurgery probe is inserted into the vagina. Nitrous oxide makes the tip extremely cold. The tip is touched to abnormal areas on the cervix. It is held there for a few minutes. You may feel some cramping. The tip is removed. This allows the tissue to return to its normal temperature over the course of 3-5 minutes. This freezing and thawing cycle may be repeated several times for each abnormal area on the cervix.
You will remain lying down for at least ten minutes after the procedure. Some women may feel dizzy and/or flushed after the procedure.
How Long Will It Take?
10-20 minutes
Will It Hurt?
You will probably feel some cramping during the procedure. Some women also describe a burning sensation.
Post-procedure Care
At Home
When you return home after the procedure, do the following to help ensure a smooth recovery:
- Follow your doctor's instructions .
- Wear a sanitary pad to absorb the watery discharge that normally occurs for several weeks following cryosurgery.
- If needed, take acetaminophen or ibuprofen to treat discomfort for a day or two after the procedure.
- Do not use tampons. Ask your doctor when you can resume sexual relations.
- Your doctor will schedule regular pap smears in the near future.
- Baths and showers are okay.
The abnormal tissue of the cervix should shed and flow out of the body in a watery vaginal discharge over 4-6 weeks. In some cases, more than one cryosurgery session may be scheduled.
Call Your Doctor
After arriving home, contact your doctor if any of the following occurs:
- Signs of infection, including fever and chills
- Abdominal pain
- Vaginal bleeding other than light spotting, especially if it soaks more than one pad per hour
- Any foul-smelling vaginal discharge
- Continued pain or cramping not relieved by over-the-counter pain medicines
In case of an emergency, call for medical help right away.

Mauro Santambrogio of the BMC Racing Team climbed into 10th place overall Wednesday at the Giro di Sardegna on the race's longest stage.
Race's Queen Stage
Santambrogio was in the leading group of 11 riders on the uphill finish on Monte Ortobene. "When the final attacks were happening, I was at my limit and could only follow," Santambrogio said. "It wasn't a hard climb, but we did it at a fast tempo." Damiano Cunego (Lampre-ISD) won the sprint and took the overall lead. Alessandro Ballan (second on Stage 1) and Ivan Santaromita finished a few seconds behind the leading group.

OSF Executive Director steps down after 17 years.
Paul Nicholson of the Oregon Shakespeare Festival will leave after 17 years as its executive director in December 2012, the OSF said Friday.
Nicholson, who ran the company during a time of heady artistic and commercial growth, called the OSF "one of the premier theaters in the United States," but he said it was time to hand over the reins.
During his tenure, Nicholson saw the festival grow in membership from 2,000 to 18,000, expand its annual audience from 240,000 to 410,000 and increase the budget from $2.6 million to more than $30 million a year.

"Produce an intense and aromatic Cognac, highlight the noblesse of grapes and the delicate nature of their aromas, this is what I asked Simon Palmer, our cellar master. Simon has blended the finest Cognacs drawn exclusively from our two estates ; the Domain du Maine Drilhon, in the Petite Champagne region and the Domain de chez Maillard, on striking chalky hillslopes in the Fins Bois zone.
This new brand has the ambitious objective of modernising Cognac's image and distancing itself from Cognac's traditional codes through its presentation and the design of the bottle. This while remaining respectful of the product's traditions and intransigent about its quality. At last a Cognac which looks like you."

text: John Keats (October 31, 1795 February 23, 1821) was one of the principal poets in the English Romantic movement. During his short life, his work was the subject of constant critical attacks, and it was not until much later that the significance of the cultural change which his work both presaged and helped to form was fully appreciated. Keats's poetry is characterized by an exuberant love of the language and a rich, sensuous imagination; he often felt that he was working in the shadow of past poets, and only towards the end of his life was he able to produce his most original and most memorable poems.Add to my favourites Get these quotes on a PDF

My 2009 Moab was damaged, along with my truck; fortunately both can be repaired and are covered by insurance. Bow was in the back seat and ended up out the window; damage was only the lower limb, limb bolt and cam, and the string/cable which were due for replacement. Pretty amazing the riser, and all the accessories didn't get a scratch, except the STS is bent a little, have a spare.
Need: 1) a set of limbs close to 4H, prefer carbon but camo will work.
2) cam and idler, might as well upgrade to the Accu-trak; had the M2-Pro.


text: I had one of the Morrell Yellow Jacket "Weatherproof" broadhead targets. It's weatherproof alright, but not SUN proof. After a month of being outside, the thing fell completely apart. The only thing that holds it all together is plastic wrap. Morrell told me that it's not really designed to be left outdoors. In that case, who cares if it's weatherproof? It's layers of foam, with cardboard sheets in between. Spent an afternoon picking all that crap up out of my yard.

Retinoblastoma is a rare type of cancer found in the eye. In retinoblastoma, one or more tumors form in the retina. The retina is a layer of light-sensitive tissue that lines the back of the eye. It converts visual images into nerve impulses in the brain that allow us to see. If not treated, the tumors will continue growing. The cancer may grow along the optic nerve and reach the brain or it may travel to other parts of the body.
Cancer occurs when cells in the body (in this case retina cells) divide without control or order. Normally, cells divide in a regulated manner. If cells keep dividing uncontrollably when new cells are not needed, a mass of tissue forms, called a growth or tumor. Tumors can invade nearby tissue and spread to other parts of the body.
Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
During early stages of fetal development, fast-growing, immature cells called retinoblasts form. Later, these cells become retinal cells. In retinoblastoma, some of these cells quickly grow out of control. Some cases of the tumor are inherited; others are not.
A risk factor is something that increases your chance of getting a disease or condition.
It typically happens in children less than 5 years old.
The doctor will ask about symptoms and family medical history, and perform a physical exam. Many retinoblastomas are found during routine physical exams. If a tumor is suspected, the child will usually be referred to a specialist for a more complete eye exam. In children with a family history of the disease, eye exams often begin within a day or two of birth. Additional eye exams are scheduled at regular intervals thereafter.
Once retinoblastoma is found, staging tests are performed. The clinical stage it based on
Treatment depends on the stage of the cancer. The cancer may be localized to the eyes or it may have spread to tissues around the eye or to other parts of the body.
General anesthesia
may be given to keep the child still during close examination and testing.
Your child will likely be referred to a specialist for treatment. Without treatment, the cancer cells will continue to grow.
Treatment aims to cure the cancer and preserve sight. Options vary, depending on the stage. Therapies may be used alone or in combination.
Treatments include:
This involves
surgical removal of the entire eye and as much of the optic nerve as possible. The optic nerve is the nerve leading from the eye to the brain that is responsible for vision. Surgery may be used for a large tumor in one eye.
Used on small tumors, cryotherapy is the use of cold to freeze and destroy cancer cells.
This treatment uses heat to kill cancer cells.
Lasers are used to destroy a small tumor.
is the use of drugs to kill cancer cells. This treatment may be given in many forms including pill, injection, and through a catheter. The drugs enter the bloodstream and travel through the body killing mostly cancer cells, but also some healthy cells.
Genetic counseling and close monitoring and screening for people at risk for retinoblastoma can help prevent the disease or detect it early if it occurs.

What's Mary up to these days?
Excelling academically, as always. She just placed second in her school's short story contest. What about Sean?
Oh, he's having a blast on the junior varsity basketball team this year. He's hoping to make varsity next season, since it will be his last year and all. How's your girl, Jordan, doing?
Jordan's packing her bags for college. She's registered for Freshman Biology and Intro to World Religions. She's charged a credit card limit's worth of books to your Visa. She's robbed the house of all duplicate appliances and electronics – the downstairs DVD player and the kitchen's spare toaster.
You've enjoyed taking her shopping to pick out dorm-life necessities: corrugated bookshelves, a lamp, a decorative pillow to remind her of home. Sure, she's sad about leaving home, but Jordan is about to start a new chapter in her life and couldn't be more thrilled about her impending freedom.
A better question might be: How are you doing?
After all, it's a new start for you, too, and you can't help but feel like your parenting years are behind you. You wonder if you're losing your mind as your emotions vacillate from overjoyed and proud, to frustrated and dismal.
Your child is undergoing the metamorphosis better known as "leaving home." After high school, most teens move out of the house and into a new life and environment—be it an apartment on the other side of town or to a mission field on the other side of the globe. Some go to four-year colleges, others to two. Some attend a trade school, others enlist in the military. The situations may differ, but the consequences are the same: The walls are bare. The house is hauntingly quieter. You may find yourself with a few more potato chips in the bag or a few more dollars in your checking account, but for once you wish it wasn't so. Your child has found her wings and left the nest. You feel like she's up and flown the coop.
You may not have a 21-credit-hour semester scheduled, but you, too, are in for some major life lessons—in coping, parenting from afar and rediscovering your purpose in Christ. Fortunately, these are lessons you can complete successfully with a good support network and, most importantly, God. And chances are you'll find these lessons much more enduring and fulfilling than Math for Liberal Arts Majors.
It doesn't matter how many times you longed for "just a minute" to yourself, free of the clutter, business and stress that often accompany parenting. Now your child is moving on, and you don't want them to go. Sure, there's the upside of your new stage of life: You likely have a little extra time and money on your hands; but then there's the downside: dealing with a host of new emotions you've never experienced before.
If your son or daughter is leaving for college, trade school or just venturing out into her own, a number of questions might be stifling your level of contentment. If so, consider these suggestions to fend off the "my child is leaving home" blahs.
What if I feel old? Until I dropped him off at college, it seemed like "just yesterday" I was a college kid myself. Now, I'm the parent of one. Yikes!
Answer: Rejuvenate. You may (or may not) be cash-strapped after sending the kids to college, but remember, they also bear a responsibility for financing their education. Set aside a few minutes (and a few dollars) and treat yourself to something that makes you feel youthful and carefree. Check out the latest trendy coffee shop with your spouse. Rent a motor home and spend a few days exploring the countryside. Buy a canvas to create the next masterpiece. Who knows, you just may discover a new interest—or a second career.
What if I feel nostalgic? Looking back, ramen noodles and all-night study marathons weren't so awful after all. I'm wishing I could relive my university days! Still, I want to avoid pushing this bittersweet nostalgia onto my freshman son or daughter.
Answer: Connect. Does sending your son or daughter to college cause great campus memories to surface? If so, write them down! Find a method to document and share them with your child. Scrapbooks, series of letters or a photo slide-show are great ways to give your kid a glimpse into college life.
What if I feel guilty? It has been 18 years since I've been able to say, "my time", rather than "my kids' time." But I still feel guilty about sleeping in. Or working in the garden. Or picking up that novel that's been calling my name. Or ….
Answer: Invest in yourself. While selfishness certainly isn't a fruit of the spirit, there isn't anything wrong with enjoying yourself, especially after 18 years of experiencing the parenting gamut—from dirty diapers to driver's licenses. Instead of fretting, dive into that that Great American Novel you've always wanted to write, volunteer at church, start a new business. You just may find yourself a more refreshed parent, spouse and coworker!
What if I feel anxious? Faced with rampant temptation, will my kid make wise choices? And will she be safe? With keg parties, sexual enticement and an increase in campus violence, I'm uneasy.
Answer: Reflect. Danger and temptation surround us all in this fallen world. Think back to some of the dangers and temptations you faced in your younger years. How has God brought you through them? Reflect on His faithfulness, and be open with your children about past struggles.
Why do I feel a loss? All of the sudden, my house is empty. The walls are bare, and so is my heart. Will things ever be the same?
Answer: Survey. Your child may have moved half-way across the country, but he's still your child. Take inventory of the great moments and opportunities God provided you through parenting. And anticipate what you have to look forward to in the coming years – Christmases home from college, trips to see the kids—maybe even grandbabies!
What if I feel frustrated? I worked for 18 years to keep this family protected and together. Now, I'm relocating a part of it hundreds of miles away. This isn't what I had in mind.
Answer: Vent. Don't keep all of your feelings bottled up inside, and remember that these feelings you're experiencing are quite common. View this as an opportunity to reconnect with God, as well as your spouse. Find a group of parents – from your kid's high school, youth group, etcetera – who are experiencing similar feelings.
What if I feel purposeless? When I first married, I found my identity as a spouse. When I had a child, I found my identity as a parent. What do I do now?
Answer: Pray and seek to grow in Christ. Ask God to give you a new-found sense of purpose in life, and seek out opportunities to serve others – at a local youth shelter, retirement home or your church. Mentoring other kids, visiting shut-ins or becoming a student of your spouse can help you feel refreshed and unleash a rediscovered zest for life. Opportunities may abound right in front of you!
For Phil and Cheri Straw, the end-goal of parenting was to raise Godly, independent children. But seeing their plan come to fruition didn't make letting go any easier.
Their daughter, Lindsey, spent her senior year pursuing her passions—dancing, singing and acting—as she had for many years. Responsible and respectful, her parents' main concern during her last year of high school was teaching their daughter to budget. They had her write down her anticipated daily expenses, including lunches, gasoline, birthday gifts for friends and entertainment, and allotted her a set, bimonthly amount of money. It was up to her to make it last.
"It was certainly trial and error," says Cheri of the process. "We often wish we had done a better job and started earlier, but it proved to be a learning experience for her and for us."
The Straw's concern for their daughter's financial situation extended beyond high school. They wanted her to graduate college with as little debt as possible, prepared to enter a career that would pay the bills.
But even deeper, they wanted her to follow God's calling for her life. This desire was tested when Lindsey informed them that she was turning down a virtual full-ride scholarship to a local college for a much smaller scholarship elsewhere. She had also decided to pursue a vocal performance major instead of her previous plan to become a teacher after double-majoring in English and Music.
Cheri remembers the day Lindsey attempted to verbalize this to her parents while visiting a campus. "We could tell she was very nervous about telling us because, obviously, it is harder for mom and dad to see a 'marketable income' for a performance major than it is to see it for an educator," she says. While the revelation surprised the couple, they both agreed that they didn't want Lindsey to look back on her college days with regret. "We encouraged her to continue earnestly seeking God's direction, and to follow the path and dream He pointed her to."
"Obviously it would have been better financially for her to attend college in her hometown," Phil says. "But I felt it would be good for her to go away to college. It would allow her to grow up, and become more responsible."
Lindsey spent the summer after graduation working at a local gas station. As she prepared to leave for college, it was a summer of mixed emotions for the two parents.
"We were sad, yet happy," Phil says, "Sad that a part of our life had concluded, yet happy to see her go through a new stage of life and maturity. We were very proud too, being that there weren't a lot of people in my family who had gone off to college."
Lindsey had been very close to her mom, even through the turbulent teenage years. The two became especially close during her last years of high school. "We shared a lot," Cheri says. "In some ways I felt like I was losing one of my best friends when she moved out. It is literally like a piece of you is missing."
During her last week at home, Lindsey called her mom.
"I'm picking you up at 4 p.m.," she said. "Wear something comfortable, and flip flops."
"I couldn't quite figure out what she was up to," Cheri says, "but she picked me up and took me for my first manicure and pedicure. She insisted on paying for it herself. I think it was her lovely way of wanting to do something special for me, her way of saying goodbye."
Mom and daughter spent the last few days of her time at home eating ice cream, watching chick-flicks and shopping for last-minute dorm-room needs.
When the day came for Lindsey to move into her dorm room three hours away, the family (little brother in tow) made the trip together. The hardest part of that day?
"Driving away," Cheri says. "It hurt. A lot. But we also felt that God would truly protect her."
Since their daughter's departure for college, the couple has enjoyed more time to focus on their relationship, as well as more time to spend with their son, Tyler, who is in his early high school years.
They've also learned how to "be there" for their daughter long-distance through visits, cell phone calls, text messages, e-cards and prayer.
"I let her know that if she needs something, to let me know," Phil says. "Her car battery went dead a few weeks ago. She knew she could just call and I'd come up to help her through it."
The couple has high hopes for their daughter, who will soon spend her first summer away from home living in her own apartment.
"Lindsey is very gifted," Cheri says. "She has a lovely voice; is an accomplished dancer and actress; and has a beautiful spirit that shines through on stage. We have had to let go and trust that the God who gave her these gifts will guide her to use them in a way that honors Him. I believe He will."
Some titles are temporary. Others – such as "child of God," or "parent," are life-long, even eternal. Realizing the full meaning of this statement doesn't come automatically.
Hopefully you've taken time to mourn, not the loss of your child, but the completion of one stage in life. During this time you might have felt like your job as a parent was through, but that couldn't be further from the truth.
By now, you've realized that you're not done being a parent, even in the active sense. Your ministry to your child has changed. You've caught your second wind, and hopefully taken some time for yourself in the process. Way to go!
Here are some ways to come along side your child, even from afar.
During the early years, you changed a lot of dirty diapers, picked up a lot of messes and sacrificially stomached mashed peas in an attempt to set a good example. Seemingly overnight, job duties evolved from potty training and bandaging boo-boo's, to helping with homework, baking cupcakes for the class party and giving driving lessons. While you certainly struggled with how to parent in some situations, at least your child was nearby while the task was at hand.
Now, she's left home, and the term "parenting" may seem more abstract. How do you parent a child who's largely grown? How do you parent from afar? And most dauntingly, how do you parent in the face of some interesting (and possibly foolish) decisions on the part of your child?
In Luke 15, we find a father facing the same dilemma. He had two sons, both old enough to go-it on their own, or at least old enough to believe they could. The younger demanded his inheritance pre-mortem (talk about a slap in the face!) and, soon after, "set off for a distant country and there squandered his wealth in wild living" (v. 13).
Maybe this is a story you can relate to, at least in part. While you might not have given your child his inheritance, considering the college bills you're footing, you may feel like you have. Maybe you preferred that your child attend an in-state college, only to have him announce at dinner that he will be attending the furthest institution away from home. Or maybe you were pleased with your child's choice of educational institutions, but later disappointed to learn that he had squandered your wealth, his wealth or the borrowed-wealth of a major credit card company. Maybe this story is your worst fears put to paper.
Most of us know the ending to Christ's parable. The son realizes the error of his ways, returns home expecting slavery but is greeted by an elated, gracious, generous father who welcomes him home with favor and open arms.
What did this father do right, and how can you continue to parent your almost-grown kid who has ventured out on his own?
Accept the fact that your ministry to your child has changed. For you, this is a difficult time of transition from teacher to advisor. We don't know exactly what conversation ensued after the younger son prematurely (and senselessly) demanded his inheritance. But the father realized that some lessons can only truly be learned by experience. He let his son make a mistake, then sat back and waited. I'm sure he did a lot of praying as well.
Welcome your child back with open arms. After going broke, selling himself into slavery and even longing to fill his stomach with pig grub, it dawned on the son that even his dad's hired men had more than enough to survive on. It would have been a knee-jerk reaction for the father to yell, "Duh! I've been telling you this all along! And it took you all this time, and all this money, to figure it out?"
But verse 20 tells us that, "while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion for him; he ran to his son, threw his arms around him and kissed him."
Whether or not your child has made a grave mistake (or a whole heap of them!), welcome him back with grace. Applaud the wise decisions he made, even if the only one was asking for help.
Acknowledge your own status as a "prodigal son." It may be easy to become so wrapped up in this story (and how strikingly familiar it sounds to our children's stories) that we forget each of us has also been a prodigal son – all figuratively, and some literally.
"While we were still sinners, Christ died for us," (Romans 5:8b). He didn't cease to love us, or prepare good things for us, until we had come to our senses. Rather, He anticipated our homecoming and made preparations so that, like the father in the parable, He could welcome us home with all the best.
Helping families thrive with the support of friends like you.

Please click on one of the links below for all of Microsoft's Intellectual Property offerings and how we are helping to drive innovation.
Microsoft is committed to responsible intellectual property management, including the creation of a healthy patent ecosystem around the world that promotes and encourages innovation. One component of a well-functioning patent system is clarity around what entity is the real party in interest for a particular patent. Increased transparency around ownership reduces the likelihood of opportunistic behavior and gamesmanship by patent holders and helps facilitate licensing.
To demonstrate our commitment to transparency, published below is a list that includes to the best of our knowledge all issued patents that Microsoft currently owns, either directly or through subsidiaries, along with a tool for assisting in review of the list. The list includes worldwide issued patents that Microsoft has filed and prosecuted, as well as patents that we have acquired over time. In addition, the list contains some patents that have lapsed but that form a part of our historical portfolio.
Microsoft generated the list of patent numbers. The related information (Patent Title, Region and Assignee) was procured from the Thomson Reuters IP database. Please note that the list may not include all acquired patents as of the date of posting, as the process of completing our intake of acquired patents takes some time. We plan to update the list periodically to add newly issued and acquired patents. For more information visit the Frequently Asked Questions page.
You can find more information about the patents in the list in a variety of places. For a US patent, start at the US Patent and Trademark Office's general Patent Search home page and navigate to their Full-Text and Image Database, or view additional information using Public PAIR. A good resource for patents from many countries is the European Patent Office's Espacenet Patent Search site (which includes a training course). For more information about a patent from another country, contact or visit the web site of the patent-granting authority in that location.
Compiling and updating this information is a non-trivial exercise. Microsoft has used and will continue to use our best efforts to compile and make available this information, but nonetheless some errors may exist. If you notice any errors, please email us at firstname.lastname@example.com and we will correct them in a timely fashion.
In order to facilitate review and analysis of the list, we are publishing it in two ways.
The patent tracker tool permits a search of the list to be performed. The search can be directed to US or international portions of the portfolio, or to any individual country. Alternately, the list may be searched by patent number, title, or assignee of record.
Also provided is a link to a downloadable copy of the list in a platform-independent "comma-separated values" (CSV) format. This file can be downloaded, manipulated, and viewed in any application that can display text.
Provided here is a link to a file containing the list of Microsoft-owned patents in a platform-independent "comma-separated values" (CSV) format.
This file can be downloaded, manipulated, and viewed in any application that can display text. To filter or search using the file, open it in an application that can interpret CSV data, e.g., Microsoft Excel or OpenOffice. If using Excel, double-click the downloaded file to open it in Excel. Then, use Excel's "Format as Table" functionality to automatically create a table with sortable and filterable columns.

Captain Calamari - the soft octopus toy, features plenty of vibrant colours and interesting textures. His hat rewards baby with a crinkling sound, while each tentacle has a soothing knot and clacking rings. He comes complete with a small hoop so he can be attached to a pushchair, cot or infant carrier
My son loves this toy and has done since about 4 months old (now 6 months). It fastens to the bar on his pushchair/car seat and he holds on to one of the legs if he has a nap. He also found holding on to the rings very easy and can use as a teether. I haven't found it easy to clean, however. I may risk it in the washing machine in a pillowcase.

Historical & Moving Berlin Iron Ring
In the early part of the 19th century Berlin iron was formed into jewelry to represent gold and silver jewelry donated to the war efforts of the Napoleonic wars. Some of the pieces were constructed into artistic and fanciful shapes; others were marked "Gold gab ich fur Eisen" (I have gold for iron) and were often quite plain.
The tradition was revived in 1914 during World War I by the German communities in both American and Europe. However, items were not donated to support the war but rather for the people most devastated by the war – widows and children. For more information read a moving and quite extraordinary article about these rings and the exceptional sacrifices people made for unknown individuals written October 1914 in the New York Times. Just email us for the link to the article.
Rimmed and lined with rose gold of 14k, this Berlin iron ring sports the famous phrase "Gold gab fur Eisen", 1915 and Germanic type script for "OSR" or "OSK".
Date: 1914.
Measurements: 1/4 of an inch (0.6 cm) in width. Weight of 3.5 grams (2.2 dwt).
Ring Size: US 7-1/2 (UK O-1/2; Euro or Int. Circum. 55.7 mm; Int. Dia. 17.7 mm; Japan 15). This ring should not be sized. Ring sizing information.
Condition: Very good; light wear to impressed letters.

BMC regretfully announces that Jeff Louder is suffering from an illness which has cautiously been diagnosed as the H1N1 flu virus. He consequently will have to give up his spot on the US Worlds team.
"I haven't been feeling well and saw Dr. Testa Monday. Based on my condition and symptoms he diagnosed H1N1 and advised against training, racing and travelling," Louder explained. "This pretty much puts an end to my season. I am not on my death bed but am definitely not in a way that would do the race, myself or the team any good. I'm pretty bummed. All I can do is recover and rest for next season I guess." Having shown such strong results in recent races, Louder would have been a valuable member of the US contingency. However, he can take solace in a very successful season where he won the Redlands Bicycle Classic, took third place at the Tour of Utah, and scored numerous top ten overall results in American and European stage races.

I've noticed that specific community members have let the quality of their posts decrease. Whether this is a result of a loss of confidence in Austrian theory, or out some juvenile attempt to seek attention, I want to make clear that the forum moderators will not tolerate posts that boil down to flaming and/or trolling. If you are uninterested in serious discussion where serious discussion is due, then please do not post at all.
Furthermore, for community members frustrated with these posts, it is definately not acceptable to insult them. If you find yourself in a position where the only response you can think of is an insult the best course of action is to refrain from posting in that thread.
Also, report any trollish post using the report function.

Does the condemnation of religion without sufficient evidence (or any evidence or knowledge at all) fall under this? By far I find that the most annoying.
We absolutely do not moderate over alleged faulty argumentation; that is the path to ideological censorship.
Snide remarks only intended to inflame however are unacceptable.

Religion is un-scientific; it is not in the field of knowledge. And you demand evidence in order to criticize it?
There is no evidence required to condemn action in the name of Zeus or Itzli, the Aztec god of sacrifice and stone knives.
The evidence is the complete lack of transferable knowledge.

I think not. Bert demands evidence when such a thing is impossible. No amount of evidence can disprove unicorns.
And then he is looking for moderation based on such an impossibility.
So, to be clear:
The two are not reconcilable and to be a religious libertarian is to be a moronic non-moron.
I advocate we disassociate ourselves from the lunacy that is religion in order to solidify our intellectual position.
Religion is total balls to the wall lunacy that has no basis in reality.
Are these comments acceptable (no argumentation; just flat out assertions)?
I think not. Bert demands evidence when such a thing is impossible. No amount of evidence can disprove unicorns.
What does this have to do with forum etiquette? Why the knee-jerk reaction? There are 3 other threads where this very issue is being "discussed."

essential that we recognize that the desirability of a particular
object is not sufficient justification for the use of coercion."

Is the OP aimed at anybody in particular?
Yes, and you are one of them. We're not interested in strangling discussion through overburdening moderation, but I am just making a note of what we expect in terms of etiquette. By the way, this is also aimed at those who have insulted you out of frustration - that is not acceptable, either.
I am personally guilty of flaming (in between what I hope are sound arguments) some of the more frustrating people here on the mises.org forums. For that, there is no defense beyond claiming the catharthic value of name-calling.
However, I do maintain that there are more offensive things than name calling. Endorsing the senseless genocide of East Timor or excluding brown people from moral equivalency with Americans out of xenophobia is enough to set one on fire, more than any name calling ever could.
It is not merely the things we say, but how we say them. There is no punishment great enough for desiring the extermination of a group of people just for its own sake.
Esuric made my point. It's not whether you are going to disprove the belief in god(s), or the philosophy behind a religion, or the cultural significance, but that someone is making blind assertions with no evidence and in the process being rude with insults. I wouldn't expect anyone on this forum to call a Native American's religion ignorant and backwards just as much as I wouldn't expect them to say it about any major religion.
I wouldn't expect anyone to try to seriously discuss Marx (or debate with a Marxist) with "Marx is stupid and anyone who believes him is an idiot. You have to defend yourself because you're the one who believes in communism." It just doesn't hold up.
Any ad hominem argument should be unacceptable.
I only insult people behind their backs. So, I'm prissy enough for a British tea party.

The victory for the Wolf Pack (17-6, 4-2 Tri-City Athletic League) makes up for a 61-51 loss to the Eagles (10-13, 2-4) on Jan. 9 and keeps West in second place behind St. Mary's as the second half of the league season gets under way.
Also leading the Wolf Pack on Friday was junior guard Kenneth Daye, who had 14 points.
Kimball 68, Lathrop 51
Jaguar senior Alex Toledo scored 16 points for his team Friday, Jan. 25, to lead Kimball to a win over visiting Lathrop.
Kimball (11-11, 3-6 Valley Oak League) jumped out to a 36-24 lead at the half and continued to outscore the Spartans (6-12, 2-6) in the third quarter to put the game out of reach.
Senior Evan Owens contributed 13 points for Kimball, and senior DeVante Vaisa tossed in 10.
Millennium 40, Sierra Ridge/ROP 37
The Falcons found that an early lead wasn't going to carry them to victory over Sierra Ridge/Rite of Passage on Thursday, Jan. 24, in a game at Tracy High.
It took a fourth-quarter Millennium surge, led by senior guard Mark DeWitt, to get the Falcons back on top at the end.
The win kept Millennium (13-9, 3-2 Central California Athletic Alliance) in third place in league and pushed the Rams (8-6, 2-3 CCAA) to fourth at the halfway point of CCAA play.
"We've just got to keep playing hard," DeWitt said. "Hard defense, hard on the boards boxing out and just getting loose balls. It's all hustle. If we can hustle, we'll win most games."
Coach Mike Woods said his team has what it takes to do better in the second half of the league season, but players must apply the lessons they learn in each game.
"They bring effort, but we just don't bring a lot of intelligent effort all the time," he said. "You saw a lot of unforced errors and turnovers, and we've got to eliminate those."
The Falcons started out to a 14-7 lead, but the Rams turned the game around when the Falcons struggled to find the basket and pull in rebounds.
The Rams held a 21-19 lead at the half.
DeWitt, who turned his ankle on a hotly contested rebound in the first half, was back in the game in the second half to score 14 of his game-high 17 points. His shots included a field goal at the start of the fourth to tie the game at 33-33, and a 3-pointer to put the Falcons ahead.
Also leading the Falcons' offense was junior guard Derritt Scarver, who tossed in 11 points to go with had six rebounds and two steals.

They're also perfect for stashing in your carry-on suitcase the next time you head out somewhere wet—like Portland or London.
