iPhone 4S and SIRI just remember me Microsoft Windows 95 and internet explorer monopolization.
There are heaps of things that work on other devices that Apple just refuse to let it. iMovie on the iPad 1 for example. It works fine but they refuse to let it.
They like to limit things to the way they want not the way people want so I doubt they will ever let Siri work on anything less that the 4S just because they can. As we've seen Siri does work on the iPhone 4 so why didn't they port it to that too? They don't care about us or older devices. They want to make money not friends.
And if you want to post videos and not release it then go to the PS3 scene, you'll fit in perfectly.
I really don't understand all the anger over this. You want siri go by a freakin 4s or learn to port it over to what ever device you have.
Like someone mentioned earlier, I am sure an unknown dev will figure this out and it will be released one way or another. Just gotta be patient.
my first post so i might be wrong but ya think this stoory was released so an unknown dev could see it's possible so the devs can save themselves from legal action from apple.besides i have seen everywhere this will be released probably after the 4s jb.i'm pretty sure it will be released eventually by someone just like gamecenter on 3gs or above only when it came out,voice control on 4.someone will get it done but i could be wrong.PORNSTAR NOT A TECH GEEK,lol.
Anybody that thought this would LEGALLY come to us obviously has no real knowledge of how copyright works. Of COURSE this requires piracy to work. We would be using software (and Apple resources) that is not licensed on our devices. The minute they started speaking of the Siri port I knew it might end this way.
This reminds me when people said the first generation iPhone couldn't do MMS...then the Dev cracked it and Apple was saying that the first gen IPhone didn't have the processing power to do MMS but in actuality it did and have no problem doing it.
i cant believe apple would do something like this. my likeness for apple has gone down a few.
have you tried this anyone? I'm in the middle of it right now.Guide on how to Port Siri:
I look forward to when this gets out in the wild. Having Siri on my 4 and avoiding the battery issue of the 4S would make me happy until the 5 comes out next year and I upgrade.
I think people may be missing the point. This is not just another jailbreak app being ported to a Jailbroken phone. These guys have to hack SIRI servers which opens them up to legal issues. They are not just adding an app to a phone. Plus I am sure Apple won't respond well since they are not prepared for the extra load on Siri servers. I know from personal experience that when the 4s first came out Siri was extremely over worked and failed from time to time. I am sure adding millions of Jailbroken phones wouldnt help that.
Nice to know Apple are screwing us iPhone 4 users over -_-.....and next year i4S will miss a awesome feature.

January 3, 1993
Bethlehem Baptist Church
John Piper, Pastor
(John 15:7)If you abide in me and my words abide in you, ask whatever you will and it shall be done for you.
What is the most urgent need in the church of the Western world today? That's the question that Don Carson poses at the beginning of his new book, A Call to Spiritual Reformation. It's a good question to pose at the beginning of the new year.
Is it the need for purity in sexual matters, he asks, in a culture obsessed with sex at almost every turn? Is it integrity and generosity in the financial arena where the "raw worship of Mammon has become so bold, so outrageous, so pervasive in the Western world during the last ten years that many of us are willing to do almost anything--including sacrificing our children--provided we can buy more" (p. 13).
Is the most urgent need more evangelism and church growth--when careful studies show that perhaps 4% of those who make decisions at major crusades are persevering with Christ five years later, and when the increase of church attendance is accompanied by no increase in holiness?
Is the most urgent need disciplined, biblical thinking and strong biblical scholarship, when many students and faculty in seminaries and colleges and universities have an extraordinarily shallow knowledge of God, in spite of all their academic work?
Carson does not belittle any of these needs, but says, "There is a sense in which these urgent needs are merely symptomatic of a far more serious lack. The one thing we most urgently need in Western Christendom is a deeper knowledge of God. We need to know God better" (p. 15).
Then he says that prayer is one of the foundational steps in knowing God--"spiritual, persistent, biblically-minded prayer."
He thinks that we have become so good at other things that we have forgotten how to pray: "We have learned how to organize, build institutions, publish books, insert ourselves into the media, develop evangelistic strategies, and administer discipleship programs, but we have forgotten how to pray" (p. 16).
Several years ago at a North American seminary, fifty students planning to go overseas in ministry for the summer were interviewed for their suitability. Only three--six percent--could testify to regular quiet times of reading the Bible and devoting themselves to prayer. We assume that our pastors and missionaries are the models--we would be shocked I am afraid.
J.I. Packer wrote about his own pilgrimage in prayer and commented, "I believe that prayer is the measure of the man, spiritually, in a way that nothing else is, so that how we pray is as important a question as we can ever face" (My Path of Prayer, David Hanes, ed., Worthing, West Sussex: Henry E. Walter, 1981, p. 56).
Carson's aim in his book is to see our prayer life transformed and, through that, our experiential knowledge of God deepened. He realizes that the main reforming power is the Word of God, and so he designs his book as a meditation on the prayers of Paul.
There is good Biblical reason for this approach. It's the same Biblical reason that I have chosen the two sermons for prayer week to be based on John 15:7. Jesus said to his disciples,If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask whatever you wish, and it shall be done for you.
The text has two halves, one for this Sunday and one for next Sunday. The first half is, "If you abide in me and my words abide in you." And the second half is, "ask whatever you will, and it shall be done for you." The first half is the condition for the second half. There is an "if - then" connection. If you abide in me and my words abide in you . . . THEN ask and it will be done." The condition for powerful praying is that we abide in Jesus and his words abide in us.
So this week I want to talk about the condition, the IF clause--especially the words of Jesus abiding in us--and next week about the result, the THEN clause--praying with powerful effect.
I think Carson is right that the great need of the hour is to know God more deeply and personally and more biblically. And I agree that study and thinking is crucial, but that without personal communion with God in prayer we will not really know him, but only know about him.
And so I want Bethlehem to be utterly devoted to prayer--private prayer, small group prayer, congregational prayer, extraordinary times of prayer, prayer and fasting, adoring prayer, repenting prayer, requesting prayer, prevailing prayer, healing prayer, authentic prayer. If this is the soil in which Biblical truth is continually preached and taught, then we will know God--not just know about God.
And this is not just my desire for Bethlehem. It is God's desire. I felt this afresh a couple weeks ago when read these words of God in Isaiah 56:[The foreigners] I will bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer; their burnt offerings and their sacrifices will be accepted on my altar; for my house shall be called a house of prayer for all peoples.
God means for the house of his dwelling to be a house of prayer for all peoples. And he means to make his people--including foreigners who trust him--joyful in his house of prayer. He means for prayer to be mainly a joyful business.
So on top of everything else that comes with a deeper life of prayer, you can add joy--"I will make them joyful in my house of prayer."
According to our text, John 15:7, if we are to become what God wants us to be in our praying, we must let the words of Jesus abide in us. "If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask whatever you wish, and it shall be done for you."
The words of Jesus must abide in us if our prayers are to be effective. What then does this mean, and how are we do it? What should your plan for 1993 include if you want your prayers to be what Jesus describes in John 15:7?
The best way to see what it means for the words of Jesus to abide in us is to look at verses 4 and 5 in this chapter. In verse 4 Jesus says, "Abide in me, and I in you." The result will be that you bear fruit. In verse 5 Jesus says, "I am the vine, you are the branches; he who abides in me, and I in him, he bears much fruit." Again we see the pair: Abide in me and I in you. We abide in Jesus and he abides in us. Both are connected to fruit-bearing.
Then in verse 7 in stead of using the pair, "If you abide in me and I in you," Jesus says, "If you abide in me, and my words abide in you." I think the point of this change is to let us see practically how we let Jesus abide in us, namely, by letting his words abide in us. "If you abide in me, and I abide in you," is explained partly by, "If you abide in me, and my words abide in you." We let Jesus abide in us, as we let his words abide in us.
But this also sheds light on what it means for the words of Jesus to abide in us. Letting the words of Jesus abide in us means letting Jesus abide in us speaking. It means that we welcome Jesus into our lives and make room for him to live, not as a silent guest with no opinions or commands, but as an authoritative guest whose opinions matter more to us than anyone else's and whose commands are the law of our life.
Christ abiding in us is interchangeable with his words abiding in us because Christ never comes without his authoritative views on things. To have him abiding is to have all his views abiding in us. If he abides his views abide. If he abides, his priorities abide. If he abides his principles abide. If he abides his promises abide. If he abides his commandments abide. In short, if when Christ abides in us, his words abide in us.
What that means for letting the words of Jesus abide in us is that we do not just read the Bible, and do not just memorize and meditate on the Bible, and do not just listen to preaching and teaching from the Bible. It means that we seek the words of Jesus as living words--words that come not in the abstract but come from the heart and on the lips of a living Person whom we love more than any other person in the world.
Letting the words of Jesus abide in us is not like memorizing axioms and theorems in geometry. It's not even like mulling over wise saying from ancient teachers. It is not like that because Jesus is alive today, and he does not mean for thinking about his words to replace fellowship with him. He means for musing on his words to BE fellowship with him.
And so letting the words of Jesus abide in you means taking whatever steps are necessary to keep the living voice of Jesus speaking with you through the words that he spoke in Scripture. It is a spiritually intentional act of relating to a living person when you take his words into your mind. It is meditating on a saying like, "I came that they might have life, and have it abundantly," and thanking Jesus for coming and praising him as a life giver, and believing that his intention for you is abundant life, and asking him to fulfil his good will in you.
When the words of Jesus abide in us we hear them and respond to them as living words from the mouth of a living God to whom we must respond in faith or unbelief, and obedience or disobedience. When Jesus says, "If my words abide in you," he means, "If I abide in you speaking all my will." He means, "If my words are received and remembered and believed and pondered as the living words of a living and present Lord in your life."
How then do you do this? What practical steps can you take to let the word of Jesus abide in you? Let me suggest eight ideas.
(1) Prepare a way to remind yourself repeatedly of the reasons that meditating on the Scriptures is good for you.
Jesus said in John 15:11, "These things I have spoken to you that my joy may be in you and that your joy might be full." Letting the words of Jesus abide in you will make your joy full. Remembering this will give needed incentive to do what needs to be done.
A couple other ways to remind yourself of the reasons that it is good for you would be to tear out the part of the worship folder that quotes Psalm 19:7-11 and put it in your wallet. Also read pp. 119-125 in Desiring God for the reasons collected there.
(2) Plan a place and a time when you will read the Bible and think about it each day. Put it on the calendar as an appointment. It is a meeting with a Person just as much as any other appointment you might make.
Carson gives as the first reason we do not pray as we ought this one: "Much praying is not done because we do not plan to pray. We do not drift into spiritual life . . . We will not grow in prayer unless we plan to pray. That means self-consciously setting aside time to do nothing but pray" (p. 19).
(3) Decide ahead of time how you will read the Bible.
Coming to the appointed time and having no idea where to dip into the word often makes us feel weak and unreal. Take up a plan like one of the two that we are offering you at the prayer table and decide to use it or to use something else.
(4) Memorize verses or paragraphs or chapters. Memorizing is hard work. But it gives the greatest satisfaction and the greatest power and the greatest comfort. It also will have the greatest effect on your prayers, helping you pray according to the will and Spirit of God.
When you memorize, the word of God is not just there in the crisis when you need it, it is there again and again shaping your thinking and your will. Ask yourself, of all the spiritually minded people who seem to walk most consistently with God and be in tune with God's Spirit, are they not all oozing scripture? This is no coincidence. Memorizing scripture is one of the surest routes to going deep with God and having power in prayer.
(5) Take periodic retreats and saturate yourself with the Bible until you feel that you are lifted into the presence of the Lord in a remarkable way so that your prayers are uncluttered by worldly thinking.
Wesley Duewel says that sometimes he takes retreats and seeks to quiet his heart completely until he senses only the presence and will of God. To do that he says, "I have at times read as many as fifty chapters from God's Word before I was completely alone with God. But on some of those occasions I received such unexpected guidance that my life has been greatly benefited" (Let God Guide You Daily, p. 77).
(6) Keep a journal and write out your thoughts as you meditate on the scripture.
Writing is a way of seeing that is deeper and sharper than most other ways. We see more when we write than when we just read.
I know not how the light is shed,
nor understand this lens.
I only know that there are eyes
In pencils and in pens.
You don't have to use the journal every time or every day. But do it sometimes and you will soon see the fruit, so that I won't need to convince you.
(7) Read great Christian writers who know God deeply and saturate their writing with the Bible and take you deep into its spirit.
They are like reading the Bible through the mind and heart of great knowers and lovers of God. Don't let long books daunt you. Finishing the book does not matter. Growing by it matters. But finishing is not as hard as you might think.
Suppose you read slowly like I do--about the same speed as you speak--200 words a minute. If you read 15 minutes a day for one year (just 15 minutes, say just before supper, or just before bed), you will read 5,475 minutes in the year. Multiply that by 200 words a minute and you get 1,095,000 words that you would read in a year. Now the average book has about 360 words per page (that's what Carson's book has). So you would have read 360 words into 1,095,000, or 3,041 pages in one year. That's 13 books the size of Carson's book, or reading his in 21 days. All that in 15 minutes a day.
The point is: the words of Jesus will abide in you more deeply and more powerfully if you give yourself to some serious reading of great books that are saturated with Scripture.
(8) Finally, keep the living Person of Jesus before you as you read the Bible, and consciously remind yourself repeatedly that these are the words not of a dead teacher, but of the living Christ, who is as near as your own breathing and who is infinitely powerful.
As you enter Prayer Week 1993, remember the words of Jesus: "If you abide in me and my words abide in you, ask whatever you will and it shall be done for you."

text:
Martin Hetzer, Hearst Endowment associate professor in the Salk Institute's Molecular and Cell Biology Laboratory, has received a 2009 Senior Scholar Award in Aging from the Ellison Medical Foundation. He will receive $150,000 a year for four years to study the mechanisms at work in nuclear pore complexes, channels that mediate molecular traffic between the nucleus and cytoplasm of cells.
Changes in gene activity are part of the cellular aging process; however, the mechanisms that cause age-related alterations in gene expression are poorly understood. Hetzer has recently discovered that nuclear pore complexes, essential channels that shuttle molecules across the nuclear membrane, are extremely long-lived in non-dividing cells and deteriorate over time, causing cytoplasmic proteins to "leak" into the nucleus in neurons.
Because most of the cells in our bodies are non-dividing, he hypothesizes that this deterioration might be a general aging mechanism leading to agerelated defects in nuclear function, such as the loss of youthful gene expression programs. His lab has observed filaments of the cytoplasmic protein tubulin inside the nuclei of old mouse and rat neurons, for example, a phenomenon that has been linked to various neurological disorders, including Parkinson's disease. Based on this finding, he speculates that the deterioration of nuclear pore complexes over time might initiate or contribute to the onset of certain neurodegenerative diseases.
Hetzer will use the Ellison funding to investigate the molecular mechanisms that lead to the observed damage and loss of the proteins that make up the nuclear pore complexes. He also plans to study the physiological consequences of leaky nuclei for cell function and to analyze the consequences of defective nuclear pore complexes in gene expression.

Offensive Players of the Week
For games played from April 7 through April 17
By Josh Jackson / Special to MLB.com | April 18, 2011 6:53 AM ET
Jorge Vazquez, Scranton/Wilkes-Barre
.423/.444/1.000, 6 G, 11-for-26, 0 2B, 0 3B, 5 HR, 11 RBI, 6 RS, 1 BB, 5 K, 0 SB, 0 CS
Jorge Vazquez had two different two-homer games this week, knocking in five on April 11. Although he didn't go yard in his next game, he was 4-for-5 with two more RBIs. After socking two round-trippers Friday, he added a solo shot Sunday. The hot start to the season comes after the Mexican-born Vazquez was a Caribbean Series All-Star, and, ultimately, the circuit's MVP.
Pacific Coast League
Wily Mo Pena, Reno
.429/.500/.971, 9 G, 15-for-35, 1 2B, 0 3B, 6 HR, 14 RBI, 13 RS, 5 BB, 5 K, 0 SB, 0 CS
Former big leaguer Wily Mo Pena showed off the power stroke at the start of the Triple-A season, and his six homers lead the PCL. He went yard in his first game of the season, settled for a single in the next one, then homered in consecutive games. He homered in three straight from April 14-16, and he was 3-for-5 with two runs scored on April 17. Pena has also shown some discipline, walking five times thus far. The veteran signed with the D-backs on Dec. 1, and he's making Arizona -- or at least Reno -- fans glad he did.
Eastern League
Cody Overbeck, Reading
.366/.395/.780, 11 G, 15-for-13, 2 2B, 0 3B, 5 HR, 13 RBI, 10 RS, 2 BB, 9 SO, 1 SB, 0 CS
A Phillies prospect who won a Player of the Week award in the Florida State League during his All-Star season last year, Cody Overbeck is back at it. He went 0-for-4 on Opening Day against Portland but then beat up on the Sea Dogs for five hits and two homers over the rest of the four-game set. Then, he went 5-for-5 with a double and a homer in April 11's game against New Hampshire. Most recently, he terrorized Akron in Sunday's doubleheader, totaling two homers, five RBIs and a stolen base on that day.
Southern League
Paul Goldschmidt, Mobile
.364/.500/.939, 10 G, 12-for-33, 1 2B, 0 3B, 6 HR, 15 RBI, 8 RS, 9 BB, 8 K, 0 SB, 1 CS
For a few days, it seemed like Paul Goldschmidt might have decided on a true all-or-nothing approach: his first four hits, coming over the course of just 12 at-bats in four games, were all home runs. He showed some willingness to deviate from the apparent policy by ripping an RBI base hit and beating out an infield single in his fifth game. He capped off a productive first full week with another homer -- his sixth of the year -- in a five-RBI game on Sunday. All this and he walked more times than he struck out. Goldschmidt was the Cal League MVP last season, and if the Southern League can contain him for long enough, he may make a run at that honor at the Double-A level this year.
Texas League
Jaff Decker, San Antonio
.366/.500/854, 10 G, 15-for-41, 6 2B, 1 3B, 4 HR, 15 RBI, 11 RS, 11 BB, 9 K, 2 SB, 0 CS
The Padres' top pick in 2008, Jaff Decker was a crucial cog in a machine -- and the Missions' offense has most definitely been a machine -- that set a Texas League record by scoring more than 20 runs in two different games in a five-day period. The way Decker's playing now, he reaches base half the time he comes to the plate, and pitchers ought to count their lucky stars when they walk him or allow a single; 11 of his 15 hits so far have been for extra bases. He's also notched a pair of thefts, recording a steal in each of two games against Tulsa.
California League
Eric Campbell, Bakersfield
.500/.543/.842, 11 G, 19-for-38, 7 2B, 0 3B, 2 HR, 12 RBI, 16 RS, 6 BB, 3 K, 0 SB, 0 CS
Playing his first year in the Reds system, farmhand Eric Campbell has given his new organization plenty to be happy about. He shrugged off an 0-for-3 Opening Day to break out with four hits, four runs scored and two RBIs the next day. It was the start of a beautiful thing, as he knocked in a run in each of his next two games and socked three doubles over the three games after that. He was 4-for-4 with a homer, another double, six RBIs, three runs scored and a walk on Saturday.
Carolina League
Mike Olt, Myrtle Beach
.424/.537/.848, 9 G, 14-for-33, 5 2B, 0 3B, 3 HR, 10 RBI, 9 RS, 8 BB, 7 K, 0 SB, 0 CS
A 2010 first-rounder, Rangers prospect Mike Olt kicked off his first full season with a 3-for-3 day, and he homered the next day. After scoring four runs and homering twice over the first four games of the year, Olt ignored an 0-for-4 outing by doubling in the following three tilts, plating four runs, scoring five times and ripping another homer. The 22-year-old third baseman entered the season with just 69 pro games under his belt, but Class A Advanced ball clearly doesn't scare him.
Florida State League
Kyle Jensen, Jupiter
.488/.551/.791, 11 G, 21-for-43, 4 2B, 0 3B, 3 HR, 14 RBI, 11 RS, 6 BB, 8 K, 0 SB, 0 CS
Simon Cowell, be warned: there's a new hit-maker in town. Jensen has already notched multiple-hit games, and he's only gone home hungry once. (In Saturday's 0-for-4 game, he still managed a walk.) Jensen homered on Opening Day and has spread out six more extra-base hits over six other games. The Marlins' 12th-round pick in 2009, Jensen was a New York-Penn League All-Star that season and hit .272 with 18 homers in the Sally League last year.
Midwest League
Jonathan Garcia, Great Lakes
.326/.370/.860, 11 G, 14-for-43, 5 2B, 0 3B, 6 HR, 12 RBI, 10 RS, 3 BB, 10 K, 0 SB, 0 CS
A Dodgers prospect playing his first full season, Jonathan Garcia shook off a year-opening 0-for-7 funk by homering in his third game of the year and then going yard twice in his fourth. He's shown no signs of cooling down since. In fact, he enters the new week with a home run in three consecutive games. Garcia missed the cycle by a triple in the tilt that began that streak, and it was already his second three-RBI game of the year.
South Atlantic League
Chris Wallace, Lexington
.444/.535/1.000, 16-for-36, 5 2B, 0 3B, 5 HR, 17 RBI, 12 RS, 5 BB, 8 K, 0 SB, 1 CS
Chris Wallace's three-homer, nine-RBI game on Sunday was his best performance of the year so far, sure -- it was likely the best performance of the year so far -- but he's been hitting consistently well since the start of the season. He homered during a two-hit Opening Day, and he's yet to go hitless. Wallace, a 16th-round pick of the Astros last year, was an Appalachian League All-Star in his debut season, and he's started his first full season off in the same style.

Gov. West biographer to speak June 16 at USC
Biographer Phil Grose will discuss his latest book, "Looking for Utopia: the Life and Times of John C. West," Thursday, June 16, at the University of South Carolina's Hollings Library.
A reception will begin at 5 p.m., and Grose will speak at 6 p.m. Afterward he will sign copies of the book, which will be available for sale. The event is free and open to the public. A special exhibit of the University's John C. West Collection will be on display in the SCPC Gallery of the Hollings Library.
In his book, Grose analyzes West's life and impact as a South Carolina governor and a U.S. ambassador. The work, published by USC Press, is based on research in the West Collection at South Carolina Political Collections (SCPC), interviews, research and Grose's personal knowledge as a West staffer and associate.
The exhibit will feature historical resources that document West's life. A highlight of the West Collection is a remarkable diary West maintained while he served as governor, from 1971 to 1975, and as President Jimmy Carter's Ambassador to Saudi Arabia, from 1977 to 1981.
"In an era when few public figures remain untarnished, John Carl West (1922-2004) stands out for his remarkable achievements, striking intellect, and deep concern for humanity," said Herbert Hartsook, director of South Carolina Political Collections.
West's service to South Carolina included terms as state senator, lieutenant governor and governor. As governor, he worked to end poverty and hunger across the state, and to banish discrimination from state government, Hartsook said.
His major accomplishments included the passage of mandatory automobile insurance for all drivers; the creation of the Coastal Zone Planning and Management Council, the Housing Authority and the Health Policy and Planning Council; and the reorganization of the Governor's Office. His legacy also includes the creation of the state's second medical school at the University of South Carolina.
Former Sen. Ernest "Fritz" Hollings said the book is an accurate chronicle of West's political life.

Hey guys, I put this together for fun and to get a feel on team needs and direction. Surely lots will change from now until May.
Notable Returnees: Brett Hundley, Blake Bortles, Sean Mannion
1. Jacksonville Jaguars: Teddy Bridgewater QB
The Jaguars desperately need a franchise signal caller to rejuvenate this franchise. Bridgewater has the poise, leadership ability and sheer talent to turn this franchise around.
2. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Jadeveon Clowney DE
The Buccaneers might be tempted to draft a QB here, but with Glennon progressing and a player of Clowneys talent available, they decide to select the freakish defensive end.
3. Minnesota Vikings: Marcus Mariota QB
The Vikings do not have the QB of their future on their roster. They do not pass up a chance to add a dynamic player like Marioti to the fold.
4. New York Giants: Jake Matthews OT
The Giants need major help on both their offensive and defensive lines. They take BPA here and possibly the safest prospect in the draft.
5. Oakland Raiders: Anthony Barr DE/OLB
Oakland is a young rebuilding team who hopes theyve found a QB to build around. To take the next step, they need the pass rushing element all elite teams have. Barr is another fairly safe prospect who should add another dimension to the Raiders defense.
6. Pittsburgh Steelers: Taylor Lewan, OT, Michigan
The Steelers clearly need an upgrade over Levi Brown and Mike Adams at left tackle. They would be ecstatic to find either Matthews or Lewan available at pick #6.
7. St. Louis Rams: Lucas Nix DT
The Rams continue to solidify their young defensive line. Nix should play nose tackle beside Michael Brockers giving the Rams a formidable inside presence for many years.
8. Houston Texans: Tajh Boyd, QB
The Texans are ready to move on from Matt Shaub. Tajh Boyd is a dynamic playmaker who fits with the new elk of QBs gaining popularity in todays NFL.
9. St. Louis Rams (via Washington): Ha Ha Clinton-Dix S
The Rams could stand to upgrade both safety positions. Clinton-Dix is a well-rounded safety who should start from day one.
10. Cleveland Browns: Bryce Petty, QB
The worse kept secret in the NFL is that Cleveland is looking to draft a QB. Petty is making a name for himself with his play this year; if he declares, he is a first round talent.
11. Buffalo Bills: Cyrus Kouandijo OT
The Bills have a void at RT and protecting their young QB should be a high priority.
12. Arizona Cardinals: Zach Mettenberger, QB
It is increasingly clear that Carson Palmers starter calibre days are behind him. Mettenberger is having a great season and has the arm strength Bruce Arians covets in his vertical passing game.
13. Atlanta Falcons: Antonio Richardson OT
The Falcons have had turmoil at both of their tackle positions. Richardson is a massive human being who, despite his recent struggles, will upgrade this unit from day one.
14. Tennessee Titans: C.J. Mosley, LB
The Titans can no longer rely on Colin McCarthy or Moise Fokou to stay healthy. They need a leader in the middle of their defense. Mosley represents fair value here.
15. Baltimore Ravens: Sammy Watkins, WR
The Ravens historically manage to get good value out of their early draft picks, and this year is no different. Watkins is a top ten talent who falls a little due to the run on QBs and OTs.
16. Philadelphia Eagles: Bradley Roby, CB
Roby has had his struggles but his talent is obvious. When the dust settles, he will be the first cornerback drafted. CB is a major need in Philadelphia.
17. Miami Dolphins: Cameron Erving OT
The Dolphins have a major need at tackle and should be committed to protecting their young QB. Erving is the best available tackle at this stage in the draft.
18. Chicago Bears: Rashede Hageman, DT
The Bears had had major struggles stopping the run this year, mainly due to injuries. Hageman fits what the Bears do schematically and he should provide them with depth and versatility along the DL.
19. New York Jets: Austin Seferian-Jenkins TE
The Jets appear to have found their QB of the future. Its now time to find him some weapons. TE is a particular position of weakness on the team.
20. Carolina Panthers: Mike Evans WR
The Panthers loaded up on their front 7 in previous drafts; its now time to find Cam Newton a young weapon. Evans is a steal at #20.
21. San Diego Chargers: Khalil Mack, OLB
The Chargers need to find a young pass rusher. Ingram is still an anomaly at this point.
22. Detroit Lions: Marqise Lee WR
The Lions have been searching for a second receiver for a long time. Lee is a perfect compliment to Calvin Johnson.
23. New England Patriots: Ryan Shazier, OLB
Shazier is a versatile playmaker who fits the mold of a New England Patriot. Expect the Patriots to use him in many different positions and formations at the linebacker position.
24. Dallas Cowboys: Anthony Johnson, DT
The Cowboys have an obvious void at defensive tackle. Johnson is a riser with immense potential if he stays focused.
25. Cincinnati Bengals: Ifo Ekpre-Olomu CB,
The Bengals do not have many glaring needs. However, injuries and age has brought some uncertainty to the secondary. Ekpre-Olomu is also great value here.
26. Green Bay Packers: Eric Ebron TE
The Packers need to find a replacement for Jermichael Finley and need to continue to ensure Aaron Rodgers has talented weapons at his disposal.
27. San Francisco 49ers: Kyle Van Noy, OLB
The 49ers Aldon Smiths future is uncertain. The 49ers will value Van Noys disruptive pass rushing skills and coverage abilities at the linebacker position.
28. Kansas City Chiefs: Daniel McCullers, DE
The Cheifs must prepare for the loss of Tyson Jackson. McCullers gives the Chiefs a massive defensive front to free up their dangerous pass rushing LBs.
29. Cleveland Browns (via Indianapolis): Jason Varrett, CB
The Browns need an upgrade at cornerback opposite Joe Haden. Varrett has had an exceptional college career and is the top ranked senior cornerback.
30. New Orleans Saints : Vic Beasley, DE/OLB
Beasley is having a potentially record breaking season. He translates to outside linebacker in the Saints aggressive defensive system.
31. Seattle Seahawks : Cyril Richardson OG, Baylor
The Seahawks offensive line has been decimated by injury and inconsistency. Richardson has the movement skills to excel at LG in their scheme.
32. Denver Broncos: Trent Murphy, DE/OLB
Von Miller is a major suspension risk and Shaun Phillips wont play at this level forever. The Broncos need to solidify their pass rushing depth.
Round 2:
33. Jacksonville Jaguars Jackson Jeffcoat, DE/OLB
34. Tampa Bay Buccaneers Jace Amaro TE
35. Minnesota Vikings Michael Sam, DE
36. New York Giants Lache Seastrunk RB
37. Oakland Raiders Gabe Jackson, OG

61. Indianapolis Colts Allen Robinson, WR

63. Seattle Seahawks Brandon Coleman, WR
64. Denver Broncos Marcus Robertson, CB

Dont think the Raiders will pick that high, but if we do, Barr is a pick that I can't argue. Maybe not the best fit, but he's a damn good player and a difference makers.
I love Gabe Jackson in the 2nd round. Would immensely improve our o-line. Watching Lucas Nix at LG is brutal.
I hate our 3rd pick AJ McCarron. I don't think he'll be anything good at the next level. I would prefer you go with BPA for us at either WR, RB, or DE.
Props to cdUbs14 for the sig!

THere are three good Vikings picks, but WR is not one of them, they desperately need an OG or LB, so either of those make much more sense with their first third round pick.

I would also prefer to make a selection with our first third round pick.

Missing the pick at 70 for Cleveland...and a DE in the 3rd round is terrible. We have way more needs than just depth.

RT and G are huge needs for the Rams. That said both your 1st rounders would help the defense a lot. The second round RB is a waste pick. Hurst, Yankey and Collins picked right Sankey would all be preferable. CB in the 3rd is good but there are again a few OT and G taken after him that are a bigger need.

Love the first round, would rather go Sutton or Easley with the second, and like the third enough.

'"They were rolling and they had lots of confidence coming in," Briere said of the Thrashers. "They were the team that broke our [10-game streak to open the season], too. It was a game we wanted to show we can win and we can play better than we did the first meeting."'
Archives for December 2006
Keeping their distance
Ruff will be coach for East All-Stars
'"It's a tremendous honor to go. It really is," said Ruff, who coached the East in the 1999 game in Tampa Bay. "What will make it special is I hope we have four or five of our players. That'll be the great thing about it."'
Gaustad's not quiet, no matter what stats say
'"You can hear him in the locker or on the bench, wherever you are. He's a talker. That's a good thing," Kotalik said after Saturday's win. "It's a sign of leadership. And I think in the future he's going to be a leader of this organization."'
Stafford back in lineup, Peters out
'Stafford had played 14 games earlier in the season, scoring twice and adding three assists during his stay. The rookie scored 12 goals and added 10 assists in 20 games in Rochester. He's also been a plus-11, good enough for second on the Amerks' roster.'

Sabres stop Thrashers' win streak (Atlanta Journal Constitution)
Hartley not worried about Kovalchuk (Atlanta Journal Constitution)
2 Thrashers backers united by gift of life (Atlanta Journal Constitution)
Post-Game Notes (AtlantaThrashers.com)
Buffalo 4, Atlanta 1
'"We played a pretty strong game, but they capitalized on a couple of chances," Thrashers coach Bob Hartley said. "That's the kind of team that they have. We can't fault our effort. We played a good game, and showed up to work."'
Buffalo 4, Atlanta 1
'Miller was busy in the first period and made 13 saves while the team killed off three Atlanta power plays.'
Sabres Take Care Of Thrashers 4-1
'Ryan Miller stopped 29 of 30 shots for his 20th victory of the season and with the win, Lindy Ruff has earned the chance to coach the Eastern Conference at the All-Star Game in Dallas on Wednesday, January 24th.'
Sabres Give Ruff Ticket To Dallas
'Boasting a conference-best 57 points entering the game, Buffalo solidified Ruff as the Eastern Conference's head coach at the 2007 NHL All-Star game with a 4-1 victory over the Atlanta Thrashers on Saturday night in HSBC Arena. Needing just a point, the win guaranteed Buffalo would finish ahead of the second-place Thrashers at the All-Star deadline later next week.'
Sabres end a great year with a great win against Atlanta
'Drew Stafford made his 15th appearance of the season after being recalled earlier in the day from the Rochester Americans. Stafford, however, had to play with assistant coach Brian McCutcheon's skates as his equipment never arrived in time for the game.'
Game # 38: Sabres 4, Thrashers 1
'If there is one recurring trend in the Sabres' tendencies to commit a litany of turnovers within short bursts of each game, it has been their inconsistent dump ins when going on the attack, and their failed attempts to clear their zone on the defensive side.'
Buffalo recalls Stafford
'Stafford has 13 points (7+6) in his last eight games for the Amerks and has 12 goals and 10 assists on the season.'

NHL needs smart suspensions
'…it's pretty easy to speculate why Ovechkin was not given a suspension. He happens to be one of the best players in the league and perhaps the only reason to watch the Capitals play. Consider, alternatively, the penalty the hit would have received had the player making it been a stiff like, say, Scott Nichol of the Nashville Predators. Funny how he got nine games for his sucker punch but Ovechkin got nothing for an illegal play that could have been equally devastating to the player on the receiving end.'

So who watchin' this?
Season 3 episode 1
So who watchin' this?
Season 3 episode 1
Havent even finished season 2 yet!!! Will catch up with it at some point though I reckon.
We got a situation!!! I fucking love Jersey Shore. And Jwoww is absolute filth. FILTH.
not sure about this. This forum recommended Sons of Anarchy and I ended up watching 3 seasons of absolute dire storytelling and improbable situations wasting hours of my life.
* Guys with orange skin go get a spray tan, a haircut and go the the gym.
* Lots of bitching about each other
* T-shirt time!
* They all go on a night out.
* The guys pull some slags.
* The women fight each other
* Mike repeatedly refers to himself in the third person ("The Situation")
* Ronnie and Sam have a fight and break up/get back together
* Civilization takes another step backwards.
I Watched like, 15 mins of this once, and this guy ko's some random in the street, then comes back and high 5's everyone, then gets arrested, and denies everything, with a tv crew following him and it happening right outside a busy bar..
I'm a doctor in exercise the same way Dr Dre is in hip hop!
I thought the South Park pisstake was an exaggeration, but I finally got around to watching it and it's pretty accurate. The people on it are utter scum, but I would be lying if I didn't say it wasn't entertaining.
When it kicked off in this episode and that one woman came out out with 'Youuuu..........are a fucking SLUTTY ASS WHORE', I cracked up.
No, I can't do it. I tried 'The only way is Essex' recently and I just began to despise humanity even more than I already do.
A couple of my friends love this, I can't bring myself to even give it a try. I know it's going to be an absolutely cringe-worthy parade of sub-human scum.
The mind of the believer stagnates. It fails to grow outward into an unlimited, infinite universe.

text: Maloney reaches out of state, fundraising numbers show By Phil Kabler October 30, 2012 Story Share CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- In his latest round of fundraising, Republican gubernatorial candidate Bill Maloney reached out -- out of state, that is.According to his campaign financial disclosures, more than half of the contributions Maloney received between Sept. 24 and Oct. 21 -- at least $66,100 out of a total $131,027 raised -- were from out-of-state contributors.Four of the 12 campaign fundraising events Maloney hosted during the period, including two of his three biggest in terms of dollars raised, were held outside of West Virginia.Those included an event at the Palm Restaurant in Philadelphia Oct. 11 that raised $19,150, and a Sept. 26 event at Bernardsville, N.J., that brought in $17,050.Maloney's other out-of-state fundraisers were in Indianapolis on Oct. 1, which raised $7,750, and at Pittsburgh's exclusive Duquesne Club on Sept. 23, which netted $3,150.Those fundraisers accounted for $47,100 of the $121,425 Maloney raised at events during the reporting period, or about 38 percent of the total.By comparison, three of the 17 fundraisers Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin hosted during the reporting period were held out of state. Those events, Sept. 24 in St. Louis, Oct. 18 in Dallas, and Oct. 19 in Washington, D.C., accounted for $40,050 of the $277,285 Tomblin raised at events during the reporting period, or about 14 percent of his total.Additionally, out-of-state contributions accounted for $16,000 of the $74,325 that Maloney raised at eight in-state events.That included contributions from executives of Antero Resources, a shale oil natural gas production company based in Englewood, Colo., which accounted for $4,500 of the $12,500 total raised at an Oct. 12 event in Ellenboro.Likewise, $4,500 of the $21,350 raised at Maloney's biggest fundraiser during the period, Oct. 19 in Morgantown, were from contributors from Kansas, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Washington, D.C.It is not uncommon for candidates to hold individual campaign contributions in order to count them toward total amounts raised at campaign fundraising events.Additionally, four of the six individual contributions to Maloney that were in excess of $250 -- which requires disclosure of the donor's name, address and profession -- were from out of state, accounting for $3,000 of the $3,800 in total contributions in that category.Maloney campaign spokesman Kent Sholars could not be reached for comment Tuesday, while Tomblin campaign spokesman Chris Stadelman declined comment.Reach Phil Kabler at email@example.com or 304-348-1220.

I'm sure I read about a guy with bad vision who fights, was pretty cool!
they dont do prescriptions above -5.00?? I'm on the blinder side of -5
Or to prove me wrong could you tell me who is your coach and which gym you train at.
If not Frakes shall give the order to "FIRE".
Spamming is against rules but you are welcome to buy a banner advert.
I'm no gynecologist but I know a cunt when I see one.
God thinks these lenses are very expensive and not worth the money.
God knows and sees all.
God has done the maths.
Laser teatment = £800 - £1000 and lasts at least 7 years = £142.85 per year.
Rip off lenses = £50 initial consultation + £250 month 1 + £50 per month there after = £850 in year 1 and £600 per year there after. 7 Years = £4450 so average = £635 per year
God dislikes rip off merchants and wonders where a 17 year old gets that type of cash. God calls you a rip off liar.
God is sponsered by SBMMA.co.uk. For real.
You linked the company's web site in your other post and it's all you have gone on about.
You are a spammer and this is against the rules.
Lol at not wanting to put up what gym you train at but are happy to spam a product. Funny that. I know all the BJJ gyms in London so just let me know who is your coach and you won't be banned.
I'm no gynecologist but I know a cunt when I see one.
God is not attacking you God knows you are a rip off lense seller.
God has re read your posts and every one is about lenses and not MMA. God believes you do not trian in any MMA related arts.
God smites thee and casts out rip off merchants from the garden of Eden.
God is sponsered by SBMMA.co.uk. For real.
So rather than tell us the name of your gym you have deleted all your posts. Way to prove me right. Cheers.
I'm no gynecologist but I know a cunt when I see one.
Lol @ your flawed logic. I now think you are a woman as well as a lense pimp.
1- You would come on an MMA website to target specific people who may use lenses. I'm sure there is no such thing as a contact lense forum and if there were the people on there would already have them. In the same way we are involved in MMA and are on an MMA site. (Flawed bird logic)
2- you seem to know a lot about the registration process on forums as it is my bet you spend all day doing it and spamming them.

EVERETT — A Snohomish County judge on Monday decided an Arlington man deserves to spend time in prison for a 2011 crash that killed Granite Falls school teacher Suzy Armstrong.
Matthew Boitano, 22, had asked the judge for a first-time offender waiver. That would have meant jail time instead of a prison sentence. Boitano was eligible based on his lack of any prior criminal history. He also was a candidate because of how the case was charged.
He was charged with vehicular homicide under the theory that he disregarded the safety of others, not that he was reckless. That makes his conviction a non-violent offense. He pleaded guilty in April.
Superior Court Judge George Bowden acknowledged that Boitano didn't intend to kill Armstrong and there were some reasons to give him the waiver. In the end, however, the judge said he didn't believe a three-month jail sentence was sufficient to hold Boitano accountable for causing the crash that took Armstrong's life.
Boitano was sentenced to 15 months in prison. Under the law he faced a maximum of 20 months.
Armstrong's husband criticized the defendant for asking the court to even consider a more lenient sentence.
"You murdered my wife," Gene Armstrong said. "You don't deserve to ask this court for anything."
The man explained to the judge that he'd been waiting for his wife to get home from work on Sept. 15, 2011. Instead of his wife's car pulling up, he saw a sheriff's deputy stop his patrol car outside the couple's house. The deputy told Armstrong that he needed to get to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle. There, doctors told him that his wife wasn't going to survive. She died three days later.
"Suzy, she was my soulmate, my friend. She was every breath of air I took," Gene Armstrong said.
He also talked about how much his wife, a grandmother, loved being a teacher.
Armstrong, 52, had been driving home from Monte Cristo Elementary School, where she taught special education. She had worked in Granite Falls for five years. Much of her first four years were split between Monte Cristo and Mountain Way elementary schools where she was part of a classroom aimed at helping students with learning disabilities transition into regular classrooms.
Before that, she taught for nine years at the Northwest School for Hearing-Impaired Children in Seattle.
"She loved those kids," her husband said Monday.
Snohomish County sheriff's detectives spent months investigating the collision and recreating what happened.
Boitano had been tailgating another vehicle in the 35 mph zone. Witnesses reported that he sped up to 60 mph to overtake the vehicle.
Detectives believe Boitano crested a hill on Jordan Road and instantly smashed into Armstrong. His Ford Explorer wouldn't have been in her view for more than two seconds before the crash. A person's standard reaction time is at least 1½ seconds, Snohomish County deputy prosecutor Tobin Darrow wrote in court papers.
The collision sent Boitano's Explorer onto the hood and into the windshield of the smaller car.
When deputies arrived on scene, Boitano was seated in his vehicle. Boitano asked if Armstrong was going to be OK. He told a deputy he had made a mistake.
There was never evidence that Boitano was under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
Boitano on Monday wiped at tears as Gene Armstrong called what the man did murder.
Boitano later apologized. Armstrong already had left the courtroom.

Phoenix Children's Hospital announced the launch of a new Liver Transplant Program in affiliation with Mayo Clinic-Arizona, the only pediatric liver transplant program of its kind in the region. United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) – the organization that manages the nation's organ transplant system under a federal government contract –granted certification this week.
Phoenix Children's will be the first in Arizona to offer a full-spectrum, child-centered liver transplant program that will receive multidisciplinary support within the dedicated pediatric hospital. Each patient's unique circumstances and needs will be addressed across the entire spectrum of care. This new liver transplant program will complement the hospital's successful heart, kidney and bone marrow transplant programs.
Leading the program are two transplant specialists who have more than 20 years of combined experience in all aspects of liver disease and hundreds of successful liver transplants. Dr. Tamir Miloh, Hepatology and Liver Transplant Director for Phoenix Children's, is the only board-certified pediatric hepatologist in the state. He currently treats more than 40 children who are post-transplant and more than 300 who are living with liver disease. He is joined by Dr. Winston Hewitt, a liver transplant surgeon for both Mayo Clinic and Phoenix Children's. The two form the core medical staff for the Phoenix Children's Liver Transplant Program and have assembled a dedicated liver transplant team, which also includes program coordinator Joy Anderson, RN. Transplant candidates will be evaluated by a multidisciplinary team including radiology, nutrition, social work, cardiology, palliative care and other specialties as needed.
"Bringing a pediatric liver transplant program to the Phoenix area will meet an unfulfilled need in the Southwest region," said Dr. Miloh. "Historically, children in this area with complex liver conditions have needed to travel out of the Valley, to Tucson, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Nebraska or Texas for consults or transplants."
Dr. Hewitt hailed the establishment of the new program saying, "All of the pieces are in place here at Phoenix Children's to provide an integrated system of patient care, where the patient's circumstances and needs are understood, communicated and addressed across the entire spectrum of care." Both doctors expect the program to be extremely beneficial for patients and their families by offering a full range of services for those with liver disease, both acute and chronic, some of whom may ultimately require liver transplantation.
The liver is the largest solid organ in the body and performs numerous functions that are essential for life. The liver helps process carbohydrates, fats and proteins and stores vitamins. It produces bile and helps with the absorption and metabolism of nutrients absorbed from food in the intestines. The liver produces many proteins, hormones and other substances that the body requires to survive. It plays an important role in metabolism of most drugs and clearance of toxins and bilirubin. There is no effective artificial liver support, and in the setting of a failing liver, a liver transplant remains the only option for these ill children. There are many indications for liver transplantation in children. Biliary atresia (progressive scarring of the biliary system in newborns) is the most common indication. The biliary system creates, transports, stores, and releases bile into the duodenum to help in digestion. The biliary system includes the gallbladder, bile ducts and certain cells inside the liver, and bile ducts outside the liver.
Liver transplants are unique because the liver is the only organ in the body that can regenerate itself. Thus a liver transplant may involve the whole liver, a reduced liver or a liver segment. Most liver transplants involve the whole organ, but segmental transplants have been performed with increasing frequency in recent years. This may allow two liver recipients to be transplanted from one donor. A reduced-size liver transplant may be required if the donor liver is too large for the recipient. Living donor liver transplantation involves the removal of a part of a healthy donor's liver for use in a patient with liver disease. This has assisted with the timely transplantation of children with liver disease as the deceased donor organ pool is limited.
One in 10 Americans has been affected by liver disease. According to UNOS, about 17,000 Americans are on waiting lists to receive a liver transplant. Approximately 600 children a year are undergoing liver transplants. The patient survival exceeds 90 percent in the first year and 85 percent after five years.

In the HTML5 & CSS3 book, for the test site http://thehtml5herald.com the section on the right column that says "HTML5 and CSS3 Now in Book Form" with the Bicycle moving off and then "Where in the World Are You?" and the button that says "Tell Us!" do not show up in Firefox and I can't figure out why. I see it in IE8, Chrome, and Opera but not in Firefox. I have Firefox 6.0. Anyone know why it's not there?
Shows up fine for me in FF6 (Mac).
Strange. I'm viewing it in FF6 (Windows XP). I refreshed, restarted. Nothing. I can't figure out why it's not showing up. Everything else is.
Ok so I downloaded the code archive file for the book and when I open the index.html file I can see the part that I'm missing online. It's also asking me at the top of my browser "This website () is asking to store data on you computer for offline use" then 3 buttons "Allow", "Never for this Site", "Not Now". So first, why does that message pop up? I don't think a user would feel very safe if that message were to pop up on a real site. So I'd like to know what's causing that message. Second, I think maybe for the online site I must have selected either "Not Now" or "Never for this Site"??? Maybe that's why the "Put Your Dukes Up Sire" all the way down to the "Tell Us" button aren't showing up??? If I did block something how do I "Allow" it now?
Well after looking at it again...I don't think it has anything to do with the offline storage. But for some reason that section of the site shows only in the local page on my computer but not online. Not sure why. Anyone else using FF6 on a PC have this problem?
One feature of HTML5 is offline storage of a web page, so that you can revisit the page if you are not connected to the web. As you say, I'm not really sure how this will play out in future, as many people won't understand what it's for and will not trust it. The other problem is that it's quite an annoying popup.
Welcome to the future.
I attached a screen shot of what the online site looks like in my FF6 browser (PC)
Is there a way you can simply not include the offline storage feature. Because I know not all sites built with HTML5 show that message. I think for now I'd prefer not to have that on a site I build simply because like you said people won't trust it. It seems like it could be helpful but that message from the browser is rather sketchy looking to most people.
I've tested this on FF 5 and 6 on Windows, and the page renders fine for me. :/
I don't know much about this, but I gather that, to allow for offline storage of you site, you need to add this in your  element:
<html class="no-js" lang="en" manifest="cache.manifest">
So if you don't put that in, the user won't get the view offline message.
Very strange. I don't know why my browser is not showing that section. Anyone else have any ideas??? This is really bazaar.
Ok thanks. I'll look into that.
It might be some plugin blocking the content; do you have something like Adblock Plus running because on my Fx Adblock Plus is nicely disabling: #ad1, #ad2 and #ad3 until I disable it, and then I can see those silly Bicycle advert demos, etc.
That was it!! Thank you! I disabled Adblock Plus on just that site. So because those divs have the word "ad" in them it just blocked them. I see. That was just really buggin me. Thanks so much!
No worries, at least Adblock Plus is doing it's job - even if they were fake adverts.
Yes indeed. I love Adblock Plus. I usually don't even know what I'm "missing" or should I say "not deprived of" until I view the same page on someone elses computer.

So How then Can Government Help?
President Abraham Lincoln declared: "The legitimate object of Government is to do for a community of people whatever they need to have done but cannot do at all, or cannot so well do for themselves in their separate and individual capacities. But in all that people can individually do as well for themselves, Government ought not to interfere." In America and Europe, organizations such as the YMCA, the YWCA, and the Salvation Army were Christian initiatives established to, as Gonzalez has said, "reach the impoverished and unchurched masses." Ordinary people saw a need and responded. The United Way and the American Red Cross were also developed to aid those in need. Voluntary contributions have allowed them to successfully aid millions.
Founding Father Benjamin Franklin said concerning a tax for the maintenance of the poor:
I am for doing good to the poor, but I differ in opinion of the means. I think the best way of doing good to the poor, is not making them easy in poverty, but leading or driving them out of it. In my youth I travelled much, and I observed in different countries, that the more public provisions were made for the poor, the less they provided for themselves, and of course became poorer. And, on the contrary, the less was done for them, the more they did for themselves, and became richer.
There is no country in the world where so many provisions are established for them; so many hospitals to receive them when they are sick or lame, founded and maintained by voluntary charities; so many alms-houses for the aged of both sexes, together with a solemn general law made by the rich to subject their estates to a heavy tax for the support of the poor. Under all these obligations, are our poor modest, humble, and thankful; and do they use their best endeavors to maintain themselves, and lighten our shoulders of this burthen? On the contrary, I affirm that there is no country in the world in which the poor are more idle, dissolute, drunken, and insolent.
The day you passed that act, you took away from before their eyes the greatest of all inducements to industry, frugality, and sobriety, by giving them a dependence on somewhat else than a careful accumulation during youth and health, for support in age or sickness. In short, you offered a premium for the encouragement of idleness, and you should not now wonder that it has had its effect in the increase of poverty. Repeal that law, and you will soon see a change in their manners.
Knowing this, Christians should encourage personal and voluntary charity as the Bible has prescribed instead of deferring the responsibility of attending to social ills to the state. More government is not the solution. Should the government redistribute societal wealth so that none are rich, who would help the poor? Besides, what reasonable person would continue attaining prosperity if it would all be taken from him and given away? What good is working hard if hard work is in vain? If government remains the sole entity with all wealth, power, and control, if they control the marketplace, production, who eats, and who drinks, then freedom is surely lost.
The best way government can promote the greater good of society is by giving the poor the tools to help them become self-sufficient. Government intent should be to lend a hand-up, not a hand-out. American President Dwight D. Eisenhower has rightly advised, "In all those things which deal with people, be liberal, be human. In all those things which deal with people's money, or their economy, or their form of government, be conservative." Unfortunately, some regimes have found it difficult to be conservative with other people's money.
McDurmon called to mind that "People, once the beneficiaries of government extortion, will never relinquish their 'benefits' voluntarily, even if it means others must bear the burden of being stolen from. This is the basis on which most people will vote: the candidate that promises them the most money. This is salvation politics." In the United States, many domestic benefactors of government aid refuse to or are ill equipped to become self-reliant. Socialist policies have created perpetual dependents who have not and will not provide for themselves or their families. These dependents refuse to perceive the aid as a temporary help, denying the taxpayers relief from the burden of supporting them; and they reject work in exchange for taxpayer funded public assistance. Scripture says those who refuse to provide for their families have denied the faith and are worse than an unbeliever (1 Tim. 5:8).
Church, Rise Up
Were the Church to lead by example and champion the cause of the sick and downtrodden, the needy would not seek the help of the government; but seek Christ to fulfill their needs. When people are in Christ, they are empowered by the Holy Spirit to live righteously, according to God's Word. They are taught how to live responsibly and selflessly. They are taught personal responsibility. They are taught to love their neighbor. The people would not be so deceived as to elect governments to do the work that the Church was intended to do. Secular governments would have immense disapproval when they erect themselves in opposition to the Church. Nearly every socialist government has always led to the suppression of Christianity. Were the Church to proclaim the Word of the Lord all over the earth, people would not be overly consumed with temporal matters but instead heed the words of Christ: "Man does not live by bread alone but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God" (Matt. 4:4). Jesus said, "The poor you will have with you always" (Matt. 26:11); men will have many opportunities to be charitable. This suggests that there is no permanent solution to poverty in the here and now. Biblically speaking, at a man's best he is poor and dying outside of fellowship with Jesus Christ.
Despite the best human efforts, the biggest obstacle to the fairness in which socialism supposedly seeks is human sinfulness. Scripture, for example, has demonstrated that some able-bodied men refuse to work and contribute to their own livelihood. These men relish in laziness and delight in blaming others for their failures. Who should bear the burden for these slackers? The Apostle Paul said that these men who choose not to work should not eat (2 Thess. 3:10). Therefore, although socialist governments attempt to rectify disparities within their lands, socialism falls short. It exacerbates the inequities instead of alleviates them. It fails. These governments are only successful in making its citizens substantially deprived slaves of a godless state.
Christ never condoned or advocated for such a system. Christ entrusted the moral responsibility to care for the less fortunate to His church, not the government. The rampant spread of socialism throughout the earth should cause a sleeping Church to wake up, rise and reclaim its rightful place. Preach Christ everywhere, give to those in need, and defend the faith knowing that heaven and earth will pass away, but His Word will live on forever (Lk. 21:33).

Okay, what's "Over the hill"? 40 or 50? I've heard both and am wondering if in 5 years I should be bracing myself for "Over the Hill" comments or if I have 15 more years.
I've had both my MIL and bff tell me "Growing old stinks, I don't recommend it", "Don't get old" and "Growing old isn't for sissies." Frankly, I'm not afraid of aging at all. I keep hoping I'll hit some magic age when random people will stop calling me "Sweetie". I don't mind it from my DH or bff, or people at church who are more than 20 years my senior, but the people at the McDonald's drive thru or the cashier at Walmart, Target, etc. That wears after a while.
Quote from: Piratelvr1121 on October 04, 2013, 03:38:19 PMOkay, what's "Over the hill"? 40 or 50? I've heard both and am wondering if in 5 years I should be bracing myself for "Over the Hill" comments or if I have 15 more years.We are still wondering, too. Every decade, we seem to lose something, so I would expect to have to make jokes at each milestone birthday. Everyone is differnt, but this is the general rundown:In the mid 40's, you realize you can't play a full game of basketball. Graying hair, perimenopause. (For counterexample, my hair is brown but thinning.)About 50s, the joints and energy start failing, as well as the obvious female stuff.60s, the internal organs begin to fail.70s - just there and scared. Everything is just a little slower. All repairs and housework take twice or more as long as before. Thinking, too.We have pretty much accepted it all as it happens, been sad, then get silly about it.So, my answer to is "both". Laugh and enjoy the attention. Remember the past and look forward to the future, no matter what!
On this subject, I defer to the great Jeremy Clarkson, who once said during an episode of Top Gear that the thing about being over 40 is that you wake up one day and a bit of you that worked perfectly well yesterday has inexplicably broken in the night. It's all true, as I'm now discovering.
My boss and I joke that the warranty expires at 40.
How can I get better at accepting compliments? I always say thank you, but I'm always afraid my tone of voice is wrong, either it sounds like I'm mocking or full of myself. I'm terrible at accepting compliments and I think that's making me rude. I don't want to be rude, I just have no idea how to take a compliment the right way

Richie Sambora pulls out of Bon Jovi world tour
Listen to Bon Jovi on iHeartRadio
(TMZ) - Richie Sambora is bailing on the Bon Jovi world tour because of "personal issues," but it has NOTHING to do with substance abuse - it's all about war that's exploded between Jon and Richie, TMZ reports.
Sources directly connected to Bon Jovi tell TMZ that tensions between Jon and Richie have been running high for years and it's finally erupted. One source tells TMZ, "It's a classic Jagger/Richards blowup."
TMZ reports that part of the problem is that Jon constantly belittles Richie. But there's another part of the problem - they're fighting over money.
Richie was a no-show at a Bon Jovi concert in Calgary last night, and yesterday he posted on the Bon Jovi website that he was pulling out because of "personal issues."
During the Calgary concert, Jon told the crowd, "I had two choices: pack up and go home or give you everything I got ... Richie Sambora won't be performing for a while. If there's ever a night I need you, it's tonight, Calgary!"
In the meantime, Richie's been spending personal time with his daughter. The two were on vacation in Hawaii last week. According to TMZ, it was an 11-day trip filled with zip-lining, hikes, paddle boarding, and chilling at the pool.

Stubbs Tabbed SAC Men's Soccer Player of the WeekSeptember 10, 2013
The freshman scored the game-winner Saturday against Erskine
ROCK HILL, S.C. – Brevard College freshman Rhem Stubbs claimed the South Atlantic Conference Men's Soccer Player of the Week award for his performance against Erskine on Saturday, the conference office announced Tuesday.
Stubbs netted a pair of goals his collegiate debut to pace the Tornados past Erksine, 2-1, in double overtime Saturday evening.
The freshman gave BC a lead in the 40th minute after firing a shot past Erksine's goalkeeper to make it a 1-0 game. The Huntersville, N.C., native gave BC the victory following a header in double overtime to secure the Tornados first season-opening victory since at least 2008.
Stubbs sits tied for fourth in the SAC in points (four) and tied for second in goals scored (two).
Stubbs and the Tornados travel to Belmont-Abbey Wednesday afternoon before squaring off with King University Saturday afternoon in Brevard, N.C.
