So many people today complain and worry about what they don't have. They don't have that nice car that they wanted to buy, but could not afford. They don't have the fancy clothes. They don't have the fame that they sought. Or the big house. They don't have what the neighbors have, or their sister, or brother. They spend far too much time thinking about what they don't have, and not enough time thinking about what they do have.
We praise God through our music.
LOS ANGELES, CA - Music is a powerful way to convey the Word of God. Felix Mendelssohn once stated 'Even if, in one or other of them, I had a particular word or words in mind, I would not tell anyone, because the same word means different things to different people. Only the songs say the same thing, arouse the same feeling, in everyone - a feeling that can't be expressed in words.' Mendelssohn expressed the joy I feel listening to the great Christian musicians of today.
What does music have to do with being grateful? Tom Tomaszek wrote a song titled 'Grateful'. The song encourages us to think about many of the wonderful things for which we should be grateful. Things we don't think about. So, we don't have the big house. But we have something much better. We have a home. We don't have that fast car. But ours is payed for, and is reliable. We don't have the fancy clothes. But ours fit us both physically and emotionally. We have our health. We have our wife, or husband, and they are not only our best friends, but are also our constant supporters.

Tom's song expresses many of the spiritual gifts we have received, that frequently go unnoticed or forgotten. The Father has given us life. He gave us his only begotten Son to redeem our sins. He gave us the Bread of Heaven, and His Holy Word. He gave us love. So many wonderful gifts, that we forget or ignore in the daily hustle-bustle of life.
Listen to the song Grateful (http://youtu.be/Yz-wEa6DTV0), and feel God's grace. Think about the lyrics. Rejoice in what you have, what you are grateful for.

Police: Witness shoots, kills carjacker in north Houston | Houston & Texas News | Chron.com - Houston ChronicleI just wonder how the GG will come out from the investigation.Police: Man who shot carjacker had permit
Copyright 2009 Houston Chronicle
June 6, 2009, 8:37PM
Share Print Share Del.icio.usDiggTwitterYahoo! BuzzFacebookStumbleUponAn alleged carjacker was shot and killed in north Houston Saturday morning, police said.
At about 6:15 a.m., witnesses pulled Darryl Milton Franklin Jr., 37, out of a car that he was reportedly breaking into in the 1100 block of Langwick Drive.
As they waited for police to arrive, witnesses saw him attempt to break into other vehicles and even try to commit a carjacking, authorities said.
Franklin attacked a man who approached him. The man, who was carrying a permitted concealed weapon, shot Franklin, said Houston Police spokesman Victor Senties.
The shooting is being investigated by the District Attorneys Office and will likely be referred to a grand jury, Senties said.

It always goes to the Grand Jury in Texas.
OK is a little different on this one. In the past two years our county prosecutor declined to take three righteous shooting cases to the grand jury.
One of the reasons for going to the Grand Jury here is our civil immunity protection. If our use of deadly force is legal under chapter nine of the penal code we either don't get indicted, or if indicted get found not guilty at trial. If we are legal under chapter nine the bad guy, his family etc. can't touch us civilly

My name is Nick and this is my mom Diane! We are the proud owners of this condo. Growing up with family trips to the beach inspired me to find a place to call home. With the help of my loving mother, we were able to purchase and create our 'home away from home'. Please enjoy and tell us if there is anything we can add to make the unit more pleasurable!
Great midtown location just steps from the beach!
In the heart of the city without the crowds!
This is a beautiful home, very spacious and well decorated, well maintained and only 1 house away from the beach. It has an awesome view from the 4th floor. Plenty of rooms for large families or groups. The only complain i have is the kitchen pots and pans can use a little upgrade. There was only 1 big pot and a few pans but i can hardly make eggs with it because everything sticks to the pan. Still love the place though.
I absolutely love this rental! I stayed in Ocean City, MD in May 2009 with my family and my best friend's family. We had such a wonderful, relaxing (and fun) time, that we have already rented it abain for summer of 2010! The place itself is gorgeous and very "state of the art." We were thrilled to have WiFi (wireless internet service)!! The place also has 3 HDTV's!!! The flatscreen HDTV in the living room is huge!
Aside from the techie viewpoint, the condo was very clean and very well decorated! Beautiful granite countertops, nice beach-style furniture, gorgeous dining room and living room and spacious bedrooms. Not to mention the view from the balcony - just breathtaking! This rental is almost right on the beach.....my dream destination...and is currently the all-time favorite vacation spot for my 2 boys (6 and 8)!! In fact, my 8 year old is hoping to spend his 9th birthday at the Ocean City condo!
The kids had a blast there....like I said, it is almost right on the beach and is also in a very safe area. The boys could easily spend their whole day going between the beach and our place! We also found lots of fun side trips for the kids - boardwalk, amusement park, putt-putt golf and more...If you're looking for a luxurious, relaxing destination, you will LOVE this rental!
We spent a week in July with our entire family (myself, my wife, and our children) and had a wonderful time. After reviewing many options for rentals I was drawn to the positive reviews--which sold me. The place is actually brand new with all new furniture and decor. I couldn't find anything to be worried about and Nick was completely professional, punctual and sincere in all of my interactions. The house was as advertised and it is a very short hop, skip, and jump to the beach. The night life was quiet and peaceful, just what we were looking for.
Thanks again and we are already booked for next year!!!
We got more than we ever dreamed possible when we rented this house for a week of rest and relaxation. The weather was great and our entire family had a good time. Everything we possibly could have needed was available with the property. It was impeccably clean inside, as well as outside + it is in a safe area for the kids. The neighborhood was very quiet, and the location was perfect with plenty of things to do in the area. The owner was very helpful and easy to do business with. We are already booked to return next year!
We thoroughly enjoyed our vacation home rental during our visit to Ocean City, MD. If we weren't at the beach, we were at the rental enjoying such a beautiful home! It did help greatly that we had such beautiful weather. Location is located almost in the middle of Ocean City. It also is very close to some very good restaurants.
We will definitely keep this vacation home in mind for next year's vacation plans... but we will definitely need 2 weeks instead of 1.
If you are looking for the perfect home rental in Ocean City, MD, look no further! Everything about this vacation was perfect starting with the friendly and professional owner, Nick. The house was just as described except better; clean, spacious, and well maintained. My family, including a 4 year old and 6 year old, were all very comfortable there. We loved the porch. It has a great view of the ocean. We were in need of nothing! The location was also perfect and so beautiful! We are planning to return again next year and I have no intention of looking any further for a place to stay!!
From my family to yours- we highly recommend this vacation rental!
Located steps to the beach with direct ocean views, the ocean block of 87th St. has 60% less people than the average block. Don���t fight the crowds, relax in style. Restaurants & attractions are located between 1st St. and 146 St. Stay in the center of it all. Whether it's mini golf for the kids, or 1 of the 16 championship 18 hole courses for the Tiger Woods of your group, there's something for everyone. Great outlet shopping, water parks, amusement rides and attractions, deep sea fishing, surf fishing, running, home of the endless happy hours or everyone's favorite: Seacret's... a 4 block hot spot! Relax on their swim up rafts while waitresses bring your libation or dance the night away in the new nightclub area. The night scene can be a relaxing card game on the deck watching the waves or partying all night in one of the many bars and nightclubs. Ocean City has something for everyone. Stay in the heart of it all! 87th St., Oceanside, St. Kitts condo...your indulgence away from home!
Other Activities: relaxing on the beach, sandcastle building, happy hour!!
Golf: Many golf courses just off the island

Homicides fall for first quarter of police say Homicides and most other types of crime have fallen in the first quarter of 2006 as compared with this time last year, Prince George Police Chief Melvin High announced Wednesday. Homicides, which reached a record 173 last year in the county, have fallen 37.5 percent so far in 2006. This time last year, the county had 40 homicides; police recorded 25 in the first quarter of 2006. department has come back from a period of decline and disrepair, he added. plan is simply to stay the course. attributed the decline in crime which occurred in every category except assaults, which rose 12 percent to the hiring of more officers, the leadership of the command staff, the high morale of the officers and the effectiveness of traffic stops and patrols. no question the patrol is a backbone of our outfit, High said. The number of traffic citations and arrests has risen steadily since 2003. Both categories saw declines between 2000 and 2003. The number of guns and the amount of narcotics seized has also been on the rise. Guns and drugs had been linked to most of last year homicides. High said the department has now entered two of its policing plan, though he did not offer specifics on what that phase entailed. Police union president Percy Alston said the second phase means a return to the beat system, which the union had advocated last year. Previously, the department had been operating under a Community Service Area structure, which spread each officer area of responsibility across a broader area. a much more manageable area for each officer to work, Alston said of the beat system. try to instill beat pride. crime showed significant decline in the first quarter of 2006. Rapes were down 15.7 percent; carjackings were down 23.4 percent; and robberies were down 13.8 percent. Overall property crime went down 8.6 percent, while auto thefts went down 18.6 percent, after declining throughout 2005 as well. Assistant Chief Col. Roberto Hylton said the department was on pace to eclipse last year positive trends in arrests, traffic citations and gun seizures. To criminals, he said, going to identify you, we going to apprehend you, and we going to lock you up. Tuesday night, a report to a County Council committee in Upper Marlboro showed that while county crime is dropping this year, it has surpassed rates in surrounding Maryland counties and Baltimore City in rape, auto theft and carjacking in the past four years. High praised his leadership team for this year progress and said the department case closure rate has also significantly improved for homicide and robbery cases.

Went at 5pm midweek and still not overly busy and hardly any wait for equipment. One sauna is pretty smelly and the other much more pleasant. Steam room large and scented.
Centre closed two hours earlier than advertised on bank holiday Monday. Quiet in the gym so easy to get access to equipment.
Thank you for your feedback. On Bank holidays we do have reduces opening hours, we do apologise if you hadn't seen the notices but we can confirm we had signs up in the centre and also on our web page. We are pleased you enjoyed your visit. Kind Regards, Better
Went on a Saturday afternoon and gym was pretty empty so no waiting for equipment. Spa facilities not included but allowed to use them as it was almost closing time so nice gesture. Steam room wasn't working but two saunas available and lounge chairs for relaxing.
Gym good, but gets very busy at lunchtime. Female changing room sink area very dirty with hair and lime scale. Both soap dispensers broken.
Good gym, can be busy after work but always easy to get on machines.
Gym area not very big but big enough for a quick workout
Reasonably priced, but busy at lunchtime. Staff polite.
Gym got very busy at lunchtime with almost all cardiovascular equipment in use. Changing rooms could have been cleaner and did not smell at all nice. Great location, but not such a great gym.
Had a problem processing the pass but let me in after I told them I would redeem it online.

Hello weekend: An exciting look back at the weekend of 5 to 7 June 2015
Weekends in Cape Town are always something to get excited about. It was with this in mind that we launched our Hello Weekend campaign. Here's a look at how Johannesburg-based Heather Mason enjoyed her weekend in Cape Town.
All you can eat buffet joints in Cape Town
As the saying goes, "variety is the spice of life" and this is never more apparent that when choosing what to eat, especially in winter. As a Capetonian with a healthy appetite, though, I say why choose at all? This is why my favourite culinary establishments in Cape Town are restaurants with all-you-can-eat buffet options.
Top 10 ice cream spots in Cape Town
I scream, you scream, we all scream for… ice cream! There is nothing as tasty and quintessentially summer as licking a three-scoop ice cream, dripping down the cone, while walking along the beachfront on a gorgeous day in Cape Town.
Natalie Roos' top things to do in Cape Town in winter
I'm not a Capetonian by birth, but by breed. I've lived in this beautiful city since October 2010 and am still in awe of her beauty every day. Cape Town always quietens during the winter months, which means that there are some fantastic winter specials running everywhere from hotels to restaurants, spas and salons. I like to take full advantage of these in the colder months. I've compiled a list of some of my favourite things to do in Cape Town in winter.
Cape Town restaurants with fireplaces
Winter in Cape Town is the perfect opportunity to combine three favourite winter pastimes: sampling great cuisine, enjoying good company and sitting in front of a roaring fire. Tempting as it may be to stay indoors snuggled up under the warm covers, there are so many delicious restaurants with warm fireplaces to visit this season.
Cape Town traditional food: take a bite out of history
If Cape Town was a meal, what would it be? A smaaklike Dutch potjiekos? A spicy Cape Malay chicken curry? Perhaps a mouthwatering African chakalaka? The answer is quite simple: Cape Town is all of these meals and much, much more. With a culinary history that is as delicious as it is extensive, the Mother City continues to delight palates.
Claudia's top five rooftop bars in Cape Town
As the days get longer and warmer, what could be better than sipping a refreshing drink at one of Cape Town's top rooftop bars? Check out our top five.
Top Five Braai Spots in #LoveCapeTown
If there is one thing Capetonians are good at, other than socialising of course, it's braaing. Whether it's meat or fish, you can be sure that on a spectacular summer's day (winter too!), you will find us gathered around the fire, enjoying each other's company, the tantalising aroma of meat on the grill and our breathtaking city views.
The great Gatsby hunt in Cape Town: Where to find it and how to enjoy it
On any given day of the week, I'm a burger and chips-, pizza- or KFC-loving girl. But there is something about a Friday night that demands to be celebrated with a true, Cape Flats-style Gatsby. The way the pink Viennas and hot chips fit so perfectly inside the long French roll (drizzled with tantalising chilli or tomato sauce and cut into four pieces) gets my cholesterol-filled arteries pulsating.

This product is such a great value for the money. The top is a bit wobbly but I prefer it over the rubber stopper. One thing I love is that it is lead free so we have no worries about keeping whiskey in the set full time. This will be a present for my future father in law on our wedding day. It looks like we spent much more than we did. Can't wait to see his reaction!
This set is beautiful! It was a Father's Day gift for my Husband and he loves it! I searched all over the web and at decent price this was the only one that met all my criteria...glass stopper, 6 glasses and lead free! You won't be disappointed with this product.
Good quality and holds my whiskey perfectly
Loved the set. I wish it was sparkling a little more but I still like both the glasses and decanter for the price.
Classy with a nice weight to them. Definitely will look great on display.
Beautiful sparkling crystal with nice cuts. Stopper fits very nicely. Love that it is unleaded so I can leave my whiskey in it!
i have this set and I also have another crystal set that I paid $300 for. And no one can tell the difference between the two.
Classic design perfect to add a grown up look to your bar cart
I gave this to my whiskey/bourbon loving husband as part of his anniversary present. He loves it and it looks great on our bar
Beautiful Christmas gift. Love these
I bought this for my husband as an annversary gift. I was a little skeptical about it being just crystal as opposed to lead crystal but the piece is beautiful. Most people aren't going to be able to tell that it is not lead crystal but I can. It is also quite heavy. And bonus - it is dishwasher safe.
very nice, good quality. great purchase
Looks beautiful. Adds a touch of class to my living room
I purchased this set as a gift for my son. It is a substantial set is lead free. He loves it!!
beautiful crystal whiskey set. the packing alone was amazing.
It arrived quickly & was packaged very well, no breakage. It was a gift and my friend really liked it:)
This is a beautiful set and made a great Christmas gift.
It was lovely. The stopper fit well, the design was classy, and it had nice weight to it. Gave as a gift and they loved it! I shopped around pretty extensively before buying, and I'm very happy with what I chose.
Very high quality, heavy, beautifully cut crystal
Awesome. Has nice "heft" to it and looks fantastic.

Loved the water park
San Juan, PR
We stayed for 10 days and had a fabulous time. The unit was clean and very well equipped. Our group ranged from 7-12 people at various times and everyone commented on how comfortable the house was. The pool appeared small at first, but the 5 grandchildren had more than enough room and were able to play games..they were in the pool early morning and when we returned from a day of activities jumped in again. Water park and the number of public pools were an added bonus. The grounds were well maintained, the golf great, food at the "Lodge" was good, service could be improved. We plan on returning and hope to rent this unit again.
Our stay consisted of 2 young families with 4 adults and 5 children under 5 years of age. The house provided more than enough room. The rooms were large and seemed bigger than the photos. The house had everything we needed to prepare all our meals as we never wanted for anything.
The heated pool isn't big, but was perfect for the kids. The adults loved the the hot tub which flowed into the pool. The only thing that would make this house better would be more room on the patio. Any more than 6 adults...could seem a little cozy. The kids loved the waterpark and lazy river and although this house came with passses for everyday, we only went for a few hours on two days. The kids loved the pool just as much.
The house came with high chair, pack and play, and baby chair which was perfect for our 10mo.old.
The house is very nice, but not immaculate (which for us was good) and based on the availability it is very popular. With such popularity , it definately has a lived in feel which was perfect for us with kids.
The golf courses looked amazing, however, at $130 green fee ..we only looked at them. Many, many other very nice courses within a 15 min radius at less than half the cost.
The location was perdect, just off I4, 15mins to Disney. There is a plaza with a Publix and everything else you might need 2 mins from the property's front gates.
Michelle from the property management company was great to work with.
Both families agreed that we would not hesitate to stay here again. It had everything anyone could need at a very fair price. Highly recommend.
Our family of 11 stayed for a week and enjoyed this clean and spacious home. We arrived to one maintenance issue on Saturday, but it was quickly repaired early on Monday and did not disrupt our vacation. The owners/manager communicated well and were quick to respond to any questions.
It is conveniently located with easy access to I-4 and other main roads. The large kitchen and dining area allowed us to eat together, and the den and living room (with clean furniture) provided plenty of space to relax and visit after a long day play. We also enjoyed the clean and heated pool and hot-tub.
I would definitely recommend this home for any large family.
This property suited our group of 6 adults, 2 children and 1 teenager just perfectly. We used all the facilities available. Water park, fitness center, golf, massages, game room etc. We bought a Thanksgiving dinner from the local Publix and there was plenty of room around the large dining room table for all. Michelle is very easy to work with and all our questions were answered immediately. We came at this time to attend the NCAA Basketball Tournament at Wide World Sports Complex located on Disney. It was close and convenient. Everyone enjoyed the whole experience immensely.
The house met the needs of our group of eight adults and four children. Everyone enjoyed being able to take a swim after returning each day and the grandchildren enjoyed the water park. My husband and I played all the reunion golf courses and enjoyed that. The house floor plan worked great for us because my husband and I took the downstairs master and master bath and let everyone else stay upstairs. It gave us some privacy and being located off the living area was not an issue. The downstairs master also has a separate air conditioning unit which was perfect. We prepared several meals at the house and there were plenty of dishes for everyone. The living area HDTVs were nice. Michelle was great to work with both before and during the stay. We'd definitely recommend this property.
This house is perfect as described by the owner, and to do it one better as other guests that have stayed commented the pictures don't do it any justice, it looks and feels way bigger in person.
We traveled with our 7 month old son and 2 sets of grand parents, and the Reunion neighborhood was a great fit, its well kept up and nice and quiet in the evenings, there was never any issues with noise in the neighborhood.
The water park was really nice for a change and our soon really enjoyed floating around the lazy river.
The owner/manager provided all the necessary information for us so there was nothing we were left wondering about. The kitchen was complete stocked with everything that you could imagine, there was no need to run out and buy any random stuff because all the cupboards were full.
The pool and deck is perfect, liked having the BBQ to cook on when we didnt want to eat out.
This property is pretty close to all of the disney attractions, so it was only a short drive to disney or shopping, whatever you wanted to do.
Our flights got cancled on the day we were leaving, so we called the manager and she was glad to let us stay another night, sent us all the codes we needed quickly and it was ready when we got back there.
Although I am not a golfer, there are 3 very nice golf courses in Reunion, and this house has highest level of membership meaning you have access to them, and water park and tennis, as many days as you are staying, a real bonus.
Overall it was a great stay and a great house. I would definitely return.

Diabetes Health Center
Your child needs to know when his or her blood sugar level is outside the target range. Fortunately, your child's blood sugar level can be checked anywhere and anytime by using a home blood sugar (glucose) meter. Blood sugar meters give results quickly.
Knowing your child's blood sugar level helps you treat low or high blood sugar before it becomes an emergency. It also helps you know how exercise and food affect your child's blood sugar and how much short-acting insulin to give (if your child takes insulin).

The cow goes where its nose goes: Part Two
Part 2: training cattle for routine handling
by Sally Colby
When you're working cattle in a chute, perhaps near the barn or close to the road, would a visitor have a good first impression?
Dr. Ronald Gill, professor and extension livestock specialist for Texas AgriLife Extension, says what the casual observer perceives is a good reflection of cattle handling skills. [Read more…]
Causes of fires in baled hay or straw
Hay fires are more common than straw fires, for reasons involving the type of forage, the moisture content in the stored forage, and heat production. After forages are cut, respiration of plant fibers (burning of plant sugars to produce energy) continues in plant cells, causing the release of a small amount of heat. When the forages are cut, field dried and baled at the recommended moisture level (20-percent or less), plant cell respiration slows and eventually ends. [Read more…]

The cow goes where its nose goes: Part One
Part 1: cattle handling basics
If there's one thing to understand about handling beef cattle, it's that they can only think about one thing at a time.
"Cows don't multi-task," said Dr. Ronald Gill, professor and extension livestock specialist for Texas AgriLife Extension. "They're in the moment."
With that in mind, the goal of those who are handling cattle should understand and work with cattle instinct, use body positions to influence cattle movement, and be ready to respond to both individual and group responses by cattle. [Read more…]

Co-Sourcing Improves Pharmaceutical Laboratory Productivity
Researchers Now Have a Myriad of...
Capitol Hill Critics Second-Guess Agencies Using...
From our August issue: Clinical-Style Validation,...
Merck and Astra Zeneca collaborate on anti-cancer compounds
Merck & Co. and AstraZeneca will be collaborating to determine the efficacy of a joint regimen of compounds from each company in treating cancer in a Phase I trial. The agreement follows data suggesting that MK-2206 from Merck and AZD6244 from AztraZeneca may be more effective if dosed together.
Development costs for the Phase I trial will be borne jointly, and both companies will share co-administration expenses for the trial. After the Phase I study each firm has the option of continuing development either under the collaboration or on its own.AZD6244 has been shown to affect signals regulating cancer cell growth and survival in the MEK pathway and is currently in Phase II trials as a stand-alone therapy. MK-2206 has also completed Phase I trials as a stand-alone treatment. Merck reports that it affects the AKT pathway, stifling cancer cell growth and survival.
"There is strong scientific rationale to suggest that the potential benefit to cancer patients of this combination may far exceed the sum of the parts," says Gary Gilliland, Merck Research Laboratories svp and oncology franchise head. "In order to harness the true potential of the combined administration of the compounds, AstraZeneca and Merck have established a pioneering, early-stage collaboration based on our mutual determination to develop impactful therapies that improve patients' lives."

The International Finance Corporation (IFC), the World Bank's private sector lending arm, will lend 45 million euros ($56.3 million) to MK Group d.o.o., a Serbian foodmaker, to modernize and expand production.
Part of the long-term financing will also be used to upgrade meat producer and grain trader Carnex AD, which MK Group acquired in November, the IFC said in an e-mail today.
The loan agreement, to be signed tomorrow in Belgrade, should help Serbia, where agriculture accounts for about a fifth of economic output, increase its food production and exports, the lender said.
