First, you talk about the original choice being undone and the consequences evaded, and you feel that's not possible. But a logical reading of the Prophets' exact words actually suggests that it is possible. I know you disagree with this, but from a strictly logical standpoint--examining the contrapositive of the original statement--it is true.
The Prophet's original words suggest that Sisko had a choice
at the time
, four or five years earlier: spend his life with Kassidy, or not. He chose the former. There's nothing to suggest that four or five years later, if things started to go badly, he would be able to nullify his original choice and evade any further consequences. The interpretation of the Prophet's words that justifies Sisko's actions in RBoE is a lot more convoluted than you are suggesting.
I readily agree, however, that we could interpret Sisko's actions as the product of deep depression and paranoia, meaning they are irrational. That is a pretty far cry from the idea that his actions are inevitable in light of the original prophecy, though.
I tend to agree with this interpretation, which is why I thought Sisko's specific rationale at the end was flawed, but the general idea might not be. Sisko said that the Prophets were warning him of a fact, not a threat, when they said getting married would lead to his great sorrow. However, I don't think that's the case. If that were the case, then there are pretty much two ways it could've gone: one is that getting married set up a whole complex chain of events that resulted in things like Vaughn being nearly killed in the invasion (or, more cynically, Vaughn and Sisko becoming friends so that it would hurt Sisko when Vaughn was injured), his friends dying in the fire, Rebecca being kidnapped (which is, on the face of it, true), and suchlike. If that's the case, then, as
says, the ship has sailed, and Sisko's committed to the path of suffering no matter what he does here on out. The other possibility is that Sisko, by virtue of being married from moment to moment, is directly causing these misfortunes, which would be a difficult case to make. I see no way an unmarried or divorced Ben Sisko would've kept Vaughn from ramming the Borg ship, kept his friends from having the fire, kept his daughter from being kidnapped, or kept his father from succumbing to stress and age. But this is the interpretation that Sisko is taking; it was not a critical fork in the road the Prophets were warning him of, but that his own maladroitness would continuously generate fresh suffering down the years so long as he was married, and by cutting him off from his family, he could save them from it. There's no evidence for that.
But I have a different reading, which supports Sisko's actions, if not his specific understanding. Basically, the Prophets were, in fact, threatening him when they told him he shouldn't marry Kassidy. Well, they were reiterating their earlier threat, when they did as Sisko asked and discorperated the Dominion fleet in the wormhole.
"But what of the Sisko? He is intrusive. He tries to control the game. A penance must be exacted. It is agreed; The Sisko is of Bajor, but he will find no rest there. His pagh will follow another path."
Because they need to punish Sisko for his insolence, or because it somehow metaphysically remunerates them for the effort of foiling the Dominion, Ben can either leave Bajor, or They will make him suffer (deny him rest) for staying. The warning about Kassidy, then, was telling him not to put down roots. If he hadn't married her, it wouldn't have hurt so much when he was driven from Bajor and had to leave his wife and daughter. Once he did marry Kassidy, it meant he was doomed to lose her either way, either by his exile from Bajor, or the Prophets' actions if he didn't leave fast enough to satisfy Them. Hence, nothing but suffering. Boom, prophecy.
Now, this does require the Prophets to be huge jerks, essentially using their cosmic powers to kill some half-dozen innocent people just to impress upon Sisko that he exists at Their sufferance, not the other way around, and They're the ones that call the shots, no matter how many space fleets are coming to mess with Bajor. Still, I think we can make a compelling case for that, between their inaction during the Occupation, and their inspiration of religions on at least three planets that, perhaps not coincidentally, all ended up hating each other.
I'm gratified to hear that
wasn't intentionally paralleling Star Trek: Online with the quick reunification of the Romulans and Kira entering the clergy. Well, it's less STO that I'm worried about leading into than Countdown. Anywho, I
enjoyed the red herring about Spock being nominated Praetor for that reason.
be a clear break from the Path to 2409, and would be a fantastic twist on why Nero and Spock both believed he had so much responsibility to bear for the loss of Romulus.
I'm a little disappointed by the loss of the story opportunities that came about from East Romulus and West Romulus (the Ki Baratan wall!), especially since I was looking forward to the whole thing being turned upside down in five years when Romulus went foom and suddenly the Imperial Romulan State became the sole and legitimate heirs. I guess things will still be turned upside-down, but that's going to be considerably less enjoyable if it's a moderate-to-good-guy Romulan Empire that goes, and there isn't a batch of good-guy Romulans waiting in the wings.
I'm curious about why, as mentioned in another thread,
was given permission to kill off Spock. I'd hoped that it would be something reasonably apparent in the book itself, but I can't think of anything that would give Spock a get-out-of-death free card (or a clone or impersonator) in time for the Hobus event. Maybe it'll become a factor in a future book.
On the whole, I enjoyed the book, even if I didn't specifically agree with Sisko's state of mind (I suspect someone will be along to tell him he's being ridiculous now that he's confessed his reasoning). Oh, I also particularly enjoyed the scene with Spock and his Gorn contact at the bar. Some people forget that, under that logical exterior, Vulcans in general and Spock in particular are enormous wise-asses.

This article shows you how to upsize a Microsoft Access database to the Microsoft SQL Server or to the Microsoft Data Engine (MSDE) by using the Access 2000 Upsizing Wizard. This article covers an introduction to the Upsizing Wizard, what to check before you upsize, design considerations, suggested troubleshooting techniques for common upsizing issues, and additional resources for information.
IntroductionYou can use the Upsizing Wizard to convert an existing Access database (.mdb) to a client/server solution. The Upsizing Wizard creates a new SQL Server database structure (including indexes, validation rules, defaults, and relationships) and then copies your data to the new SQL Server database. Additionally, the Upsizing Wizard tries to re-create your queries as SQL Server views and as stored procedures.
You can select to upsize only your database structure and your data, or, after you create the SQL Server back-end database, you can select to create an Access front-end client application. The Upsizing Wizard can create the front-end client application in either of two ways:

2000 Saturn SC1 • 105,000 miles
Hello after rebuilding engine #1 cyl. Burning oil. Leak down test found air leaking into crankcase. Torn down engine found top of #1 piston wet with oil removed piston and the rings look normal want to check cylinder bore but need specifications if you can provide them that would be great. Its a 2000 SC1 1.9L SOHC engine. Forgot to mention the cylinder head was overhauled also. Thank you
December 18, 2012.
December 18, 2012.
What was done to the head valve stem seals etc etc please give details?Also you ringed the engine?Did you hone the cylinders?Did that cylinder do that before the rebuild?Honestly when saturn remaned those engines to sell at the dealership they always bored the cylinders and put over sized pistons and rings due to the oil consumption issues. What happens is the cylinders get worn in the shape of a coke bottle and if you dont have them bored you will burn oil.

The Expendables won the top spot at last weekend's box office, but today the action film will have to do battle with three new movies. The Switch, which Buzz found to be quite funny, is out, as is Piranha 3D starring Gossip Girl's Jessica Szohr. The Twilight spoof Vampires Suck also arrives in theaters, so tell us — which new movie, if any, will you buy tickets to see?
Ok, I'm going to ignore the Angie/Jen comments because they have no bearing on the topic, but I answered "none of the above." Even though I don't necessarily like Jen's acting, The Switch actually looked like it could have been funny. So did Vampire's Suck. Piranhas 3D looks stupid. I think I'll wait until I don't have to pay 10 bucks to see them in theatres, thanks.
Does Jennifer have any substance or she is just so superficial...just like her movies? I suggest to Jenn's fans to write to her to say if she continues to do movies...try to choose scripts that are good instead of these silly rom-crappy with one character Rachel movies. If she wants people to go to see her movies...try doing some good movies. If you have talent and do good movies people will go see her movies. It is not about massive same theme rom-com that she continues to do. She does massive promotion in the US...you name it she goes to every entertainment shows, talk shows...even Chelsea Handler (twice)...who does that maybe D and F list stars. My point is enough with these crappy movies...get some acting class and choose some good scripts. It's not like she needs the money but she loves the limelife.
The only reason why Jennifer is relevant because of the Brad/Angie thing period! Jenn is boring on her own and milking this instead of choosing good movies. The people feel sorry for Jenn for that reason...she needs to stop the pity party and try to do some good movies so people in Hollywood can respect her one day. I like Sandra Bullock, Reese W, etc...those women got it worse from their husbands but they don't make a career out of it because they have true talent.
I'll probably see The Switch tonight and Vampires Suck sometime next week.

Pendleton Jubilee turnout tops 20K
PENDLETON - Pendleton businesses happy with jubilee turnout
PENDLETON — The crowds dropped off Sunday, but organizers say the 37th annual Historic Pendleton Spring Jubilee was another big success.
Saturday's crowd was estimated to be around 20,000, but Sunday's gray skies and lower temperatures held the turnout to 5,000 or so people.
Nonetheless, organizers and vendors were very pleased with weekend foot traffic on and around the Village Green.
"It's been very good and some of the vendors have done extremely well. I'd say they are very happy with the festival," said Vicki Fletcher, executive director of the Pendleton District Commission, which runs the event every year. "The jubilee is a wonderful branding tool for us in this part of South Carolina and, from that perspective, this year has been a success."
The event is aimed at drawing foot traffic to the artists set up on the green, as well as putting Pendleton on the Upstate radar as a destination for people looking for places to spend time and money. Retailers around the Village Green say the festival always succeeds in bringing lots of new faces into their shops.
"Yesterday (Saturday) was definitely better than today (Sunday)," said Cindy Earl Higgins, co-owner of the Merchantile arts and crafts store, "but I haven't tallied this weekend's receipts yet and we've seen a lot of people come through here today."
Higgins said the jubilee and other downtown events have helped the Merchantile and other retailers grow their customer bases.
"For weeks and months after jubilee, we have people coming in and saying they wanted to come back and shop when it is really quiet — but we sell a lot of stuff during jubilee as well," Higgins said.
The town is looking at more ways to draw tourists and shoppers. Merchants and town officials are discussing adding a new event for Memorial Day weekend this year — Pendleton Celebrates Summer! — and taking over Exchange Street (along the eastern side of the green) from the state to add more street parking. Mayor Frank Crenshaw and the town council will take up those two proposals Monday at 7 p.m. when they meet for their monthly meeting at the town's municipal center, 310 Greenville St.

It was one of the first temples we went to, but not too crowded--like Angkor Wat (lots of tourist there!). The detailed carvings were cool and we liked all the high walls and doorways. Definitely recommend taking the kids here! They'll love it! Hope you'll like it. This is coming from the kid travelers who travel through out the world having cool experiences.

1856 P1C Flying Eagle Cent, Judd-183, Pollock-217, High R.7,...Click the image to load the highest resolution version.
Extremely Rare Snow-4d 1856 Flying Eagle Cent in Nickel Alloy, Judd-1831856 P1C Flying Eagle Cent, Judd-183, Pollock-217, High R.7, PR62 PCGS. Snow-4d. The "Reverse C" variety of this popular and historically important pattern, which differs from the other three Judd reverses by the cotton leaves on the reverse being incised rather than struck in relief. The Es in ONE CENT are open. Struck in a nickel alloy (25% nickel and 75% copper) with a plain edge. Struck from Snow-4 dies, which have a point at the base of the U in UNITED and a die line within the denticles below the right ribbon end. Snow writes in his Flying Eagle & Indian Cent Attribution Guide, 2nd Edition, Volume 1, 1856-1858 (2001) that "only 3 to 4 [pieces are] known." This piece is better struck than the Auction '85 (Superior, lot 510) example. The strike is good but not full; slight softness is noted on the eagle's breast and on ONE CENT. The upper reverse has a couple of faint and relatively unimportant pinscratches, but the surfaces are otherwise undisturbed aside from scattered minute planchet flaws, which are as struck. Encapsulated in an earlier generation green label holder. Population: 2 in 62, 1 finer (2/04).(#11805) (NGC ID# 29B2, PCGS# 11805)

Actor Peter Facinelli presented the 2013 Aflac Duckprints Awards to three individuals on Long Island who are making a difference in the fight against childhood cancer.
Photos by Diane Bondareff/Invision for Aflac/AP Images
Actor Peter Facinelli presented Aflac Duckprints Awards to cancer survivor Morgan Zuch (second from left); Abigail Slaven, RN (second from right); and Jonathan D. Fish, MD (far right), at Cohen Children's Medical Center in New Hyde Park on Dec. 18.
Aflac is the No. 1 provider of supplemental insurance in the U.S. The company's Duckprints Awards honor those who are leaving their footprint in the fight against childhood cancer.
Along with her family, 15-year-old Morgan founded The Morgan Center in Hicksville, a one-of-a-kind, tuition-free preschool program for children with cancer.
Slaven has been a pediatric oncology nurse at the Cohen Children's Medical Center for 15 years and serves as a mentor for nurses new to the field as well as a representative of CCMC at the Children's Hospital Association, where she collaborates with other children's hospitals nationwide on best practices.
Dr. Fish is the founder of the Survivors Facing Forward Program, a clinical long-term follow-up program for survivors of childhood cancer, 70 percent of whom develop a chronic illness related to their cancer treatment.
"As an actor, I have had the chance to play heroes on screen, but families facing the real-life threat of cancer are the true heroes," said Facinelli, a father of three known for his roles in the Twilight movies and on TV's Nurse Jackie.
"Aflac is proud to honor the Zuch family, Dr. Fish, and Nurse Slaven with a 2013 Duckprints Award for their dedicated service to children facing cancer," said Kathelen Amos, president of the Aflac Foundation, which has given more than $85 million to children's cancer causes in the last 20 years. "By leaving their large footprints on this worthy cause, they have demonstrated the values that our company, our employees, and our independent sales agents hold dear—that being there for others in their time of need is a very admirable mission."

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va., Nov. 7, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Safer and more effective anticancer drugs may soon be developed thanks to a Small Business Innovation Research contract recently awarded to HemoShear by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) of the U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH). HemoShear, LLC, is the pharmaceutical industry's leading developer of the most advanced human biology systems for applications in drug research and development.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20120416/PH86899LOGO)
Anticancer drugs continue to suffer the highest rate of failure in clinical trials as compared with other therapeutic areas. According to the NCI, "There is a critical need to improve the accuracy of preclinical drug efficacy screening and testing through the development of [laboratory-based] culture systems that more effectively mimic the [human] environment. Systems to properly recreate the tumor microenvironment are lacking and [are] essential to advance the discovery and development of effective anticancer agents."
HemoShear's contract with the National Cancer Institute will support the development of human cell-based systems that accurately replicate the biology of lung and pancreatic tumors, two of the deadliest groups of tumors. "Lung and pancreatic cancer are terrible diseases that have no effective treatments," said Dr. Brian Wamhoff, HemoShear co-founder and Vice President of R&D. "We are using our innovative science to enable the discovery of new treatments for cancer patients. While billions of dollars continue to be spent on researching and developing new cancer therapies, their success rates in clinical trials are not improving. Imagine a human tumor on the laboratory bench that responds to new therapies as if it were in the human body.

July 7 saw the start of the most important campaign of the year for the club, the Minor Football Championship. Each year the minor team is the foundation stone on which all future teams and successes are built. If the club underestimates and does not prioritize this aspect of activities, then the club will have a poor future.
The club's first engagement in this competition was on Monday, July 14, in the McGrath Park against Palatine.
With a number of players unavailable, due to injuries, a victory was not achieved. However, there was more than ample proof on display of the latent talent present in this team. For a prime example, no better player could be singled out than the very young James Clarke at wing back. He literally stood head and shoulders over any other player on the field from either team. Latent talent, on its own, however, does not guarantee success. Talent has to be worked on and the only place this work can be carried out is on the training ground.
Now that all exams have finished and the World Cup is over, all minor players are urged to get to the training ground and take part in the training schedule provided for them by the club. There is no doubt that the present crop of players have more than enough ability, if they work on it, to give a good showing for the town in this year's Championship. Parents are also asked to encourage any of their family members who may express an interest in being involved, to come along. All are welcome.
Training for the teams continues on each Tuesday and Thursday evening. Players are asked to be present by 7.45pm to enable the sessions to begin at 8pm. The club would like to wish a speedy recovery from a knee injury, to Justin "Joe" Manning. Joe is one of the club's most loyal and popular players, and all look forward to seeing him back in the jersey again soon.
Well done to the town senior hurlers on their recent performance against Mount Leinster Rangers. Only for an early injury to Craig Doyle it's highly probable that an opening victory was achievable. The Summer Championship Quiz is the subject of increasing interest and debate around town and the club is delighted to get this feedback and hear of the much light hearted debate and entertainment it is providing. Last week's question was "Name a player who won an All Ireland Football medal with his native county and also played football with the town and the Carlow Senior Football team. The answer is Tomas Hannifin from Kerry. He won a junior All Ireland Football medal in l991 with his native Kerry. Tomas subsequently came to the town to teach. He played football with the town and was selected to play on the Carlow Senior Football team. This week's question is "Name a town player whose cousin is the holder of an All Ireland Senior medal and two All Star Awards" Please submit your name and answer not later than 6pm. on Sunday to 087 9407715.

Congratulations to Darren McNally, a member of Bagenalstown Pitch and Putt Club who finished third at the Leinster Championships held in Inniskeen, Co. Monaghan, recently. Darren represented the club in the junior grade at the Leinster Handicap Stroke Play Championships. This was a fantastic achievement for Darren in his first Leinster Championship as he had never played the course before. Darren is one of a number of up and coming young players in the Bagenalstown Club and he has continued the club's success in Leinster and National championships over the last number of years.
Well done also to Roy O'Neill who also represented the club. in Inniskeen. competing in the Intermediate grade . He finished well inside the top 20. which was a fantastic achievement as Roy had never played the course before.
