- Although newborn hippos often weigh in at almost 100 pounds (45 kilograms) at birth, they are very fragile and require great protection from their mothers. Fortunately, hippos can nurse from their mothers either on land or underwater. They do this underwater by closing their valve-like ears and nostrils.
- Despite their size, hippos are actually quite efficient underwater. They can hold their breath below the surface for up to five minutes.
- When hippos are exposed to the sun, their skin actually produces an oily red substance, serving as moisturizer and sun repellant for their skin. This natural physical reaction has even led some to believe the infamous myth that hippos sweat blood.
- There are two different hippopotamus species; the Hippopotamus amphibius, also known as the river hippo, and the Hexaprotodon liberiensis, which is far smaller in size than the river hippo.
- Female hippopotamus would rather mate with their bull partners underwater, but they can do so on land as well.
- Hippos travel in herds made up of bulls and cows ranging in size, and each herd has one dominant male hippo. Regularly, the dominant male hippo will use his tail to fling and scatter his own droppings as a territorial marking behavior, so as to notify the other bulls.
- Although it may appear causal, hippos often yawn in order to impose a visual threat and warning to potential enemies or attackers.
- If necessary, hippos can store up to two days worth of grass in their bellies and then go for as long as three weeks without eating.
- Despite their overwhelming size and seemingly sluggish behavior, on land, hippos can reach impressive speeds of up to fourteen miles per hour (30 kilometers per hour).
- Female hippos, otherwise known as cows, can actually give birth underwater or on land. Because newborn hippos can only hold their breath for about forty seconds, their mothers stay very close, continuously pushing them up to surface in order to help them breathe.
- Hippos produce some of the loudest sounds among African animals. Various hippo calls have actually been recorded at 115 decibels. That's almost like standing 15 feet away from the speakers at a rock music concert.
- Easily able to adjust to environmental changes, warthogs can actually survive for several months without water.
- Despite their ferocious appearance, warthogs would instinctively prefer to run away from a fight than to stay and battle, and they most often seek out dens and burrows as their refuge after retreating.
- In order to put their powerful tusks to good use, adult warthogs usually enter dens tail first and remain that way so that they can more readily protect themselves from attackers with their tusks, and make quick escapes if necessary.
- The unsightly bumps, or warts, on male warthog's heads are actually masses of conveniently placed cartilage, designed to protect their faces from hard hits during scuffles.
- Deemed as easy prey by numerous larger animals, infantile alligators typically remain by their mothers' sides for two years after their birth.

Have you ever had the opportunity to take a Myers Briggs evaluation? It is a fairly commonly used tool to help identify peoples' preferred behavior patterns. I will stretch that to say it helps identify a person's natural strengths and talents. Personally, we have used Myers Briggs results to understand our teammates better, to learn how they reach decisions, and to help select teams that balance each other out – pairing complimentary strengths for a better product rather than a team that all approach things from the same angle. For reference, I am an INTJ.
The first two indicators are discussed in Parts 1 and 2 of this Series:
Part 1 – Introvert or Extrovert – What's the Difference?
Part 2 – Are you an Intuitive or Sensor?
This is a discussion of the 3rd set of indicators – Thinking versus Feeling – which is an indicator of how people make decisions.
I am firmly planted in the Thinking side of the spectrum. In fact, it is the strongest of my scores – meaning it is the category that is furthest from center. Center being the dividing line between styles. A Thinker looks at problems logically, weighing the pros and cons. They intentionally remove emotion and feelings from the decision and evaluate the facts. They may recognize how the decision will affect people, but are not swayed by the emotional impact on others. This type is the one most likely to sacrifice 1 for the good of 1,000. For them, it's simply a numbers game and the decision is clear. This is not to say they are cold hearted. Although they convey a direct and decisive demeanor, they do care about people. But, this directness and decisive quality can often be interpreted as hard or heartless because they rarely allow emotions to sway their decisions.
As you can probably guess, this type will often base their decisions on how people will feel about it. Does this feel like the right thing to do? Forget the facts, what does my gut tell me? A Feeling person likely has high empathy and outwardly expresses concern for their colleagues. They will ask how you are and will be genuinely interested in the answer. A person with this behavior style will appear warm and welcoming – the kind of person you can turn to for a hug when you're having a bad day. They easily convey that they care about people.
Decision Making Scenario to Highlight the Difference
A new person is hired (senior level) and needs an office. The only empty space in the building is a cubicle and all the other staff have offices. How do the T versus the F handle the decision about what to do? Please note this is a gross stereotype and there are always exceptions.
Thinking – Who is the most junior person on the team? Move them to the cubicle and give their office to the new senior person. Easy decision. Send an email out and make it happen.
Feeling – How will the new person feel if they have an inferior office? How will the junior person feel if they are downgraded to the cubicle after having an office? Can we turn the cubicle into an office so everyone is happy? Maybe we should consider leasing a new office space. This is a tough decision. Let me go talk to everyone and see how they are feeling.
Likely the two come to the same decision, but the process to get there is different. Neither approach is right or wrong – just different. However, there are positions and careers that engage a Thinker's natural strengths and talents and others that engage a Feeler's natural strengths and talents. Figuring out what those are can sometimes take time.
Can you think of a career choice that would be better suited for a Thinker? What about a Feeler?

Good Old Dog Project – celebrating the spirit of dogs in their golden years.
Besides humans I also love photographing dogs. And old dogs hold a special place in my hart. They have such charm and a grace resulting from a life well lived as a companion, friend and playmate. Over the years, the stories of the dogs and their keepers have entwined and I believe this bond deserves to be honored by documenting this connection in a beautiful portrait.
We all know how much Oprah loves her dogs and I was lucky my work was recognized in the September 2013 issue of O Magazine.
Photo session
In a joyful and playful session, I capture the senior dog's special beauty and the lifetime of friendship you have shared. Based on the stories of my customers, the session is bound to be a memorable experience that will become part of your story together. Shortly after the photo session, we will meet again to review the best images. At that time you choose your favorite portraits so I can create an expressive piece of wall art that preserves a slice of your love and life for all time.
Who can participate?
The good old dog project is dedicated to dogs that have reached or are beyond their breed's average life span or are faced with a terminal illness.
4th annual good old dog exhibit
This will be the 4th year of the project and in the autumn I invite all my clients to the good old dog exhibit to celebrate all the dogs that have brought joy to our lives.
Visit the good old dog web-site
To learn more about the project, exhibit and your dog's possible participation check out www.goodolddogproject.com or contact me directly by phone (503 347 7842) or e-mail: email@example.com.
I look forward to hearing from you. Warm regards, Pauline

RickRock's recovery with FormaSurge!!
PCT Day 23
Weight 172 (+7)
I'm going into my last week of PCT, and I'm starting to think that Im just about recovered based on how im feeling, and I'm also starting to be.ieve I'm just about out of the woods on maintain my mass and strength. I know I really need to continue to try and stay the course through the last week of PCT and beyond until I get fully recovered, but I think the worst part of recovering is behind me. Lucky for me, everything has been pretty smooth to this point which is now 5 weeks after my last pin. This has definitely been my best PCT yet by far.
My weight is consistently fluctuating between 172-174 on average depending on whether it is following a higher carb day or lower carb or burn day so it's holding pretty steady. I had one morning at 171ish but I was pretty dehydrated at that point also. If I was to bet, I would almost say I'm still leaning. Vascularity has increased, and so has hardness. Body composition in general looks very good right now despite less cardio and some more cals. I think the Ostarine has kicked in fully, and coupled with the FormaSurge has me looking pretty good!
On a positive note, my libido has climbed back up again. It's still not like the crazy over the top stuff I had on cycle, but slightly higher than normal right now. As for other side effects, for some reason I've had some huge acne popping up on my face. It's a little strange to me, because I've never had this problem in PCT before, and I'm not sure what is causing it. My guess is that it's just from all the hormonal changes of my body trying to reach homeostasis, but that's just a guess.
Here is my last workout from Friday, which shows that I am still getting stronger through this PCT. I added weight to every exercise and it worked very well. The only exercise that was questionable on the weight increase was skullcrushers. I added 5 lbs and it felt like 20. I battled through them and only got 10 reps total through the rest, pause set which is a couple less than I was hoping for. For triceps a 5 lb increase feels damn heavy!
DC Workout 1B (chest, shoulders, triceps, Back width, back thickness)
Smith Incline press (rest, pause)
225x8x4x2 (+5 lbs)
Smith military press (rest, pause)
205x9x3x2 (+5 lbs)
Skullcrushers (rest, pause)
130x7x2x1 (+5 lbs)
Close grip lat pull downs (rest, pause)
260x9x4x2 (+10 lbs)
Single arm DB rows (straight sets)
135x10x8 (+5 lbs)
Recoverbro Elite"This is what we've been working on"
I am taking ostarine and formestane now, the vascularity increase is pretty noticeable. This seems to have been a great addition for you Rick, thanks for the detailed log.
If my direct and cynical approach bothers you, just ignore it. I'm just saying what you need to hear ;).

I really, really want to get my hands on FormaSurge but we give it all to you customers and I am last in line; next time I will get some I hope when it is in stock. So far Formeron that I have from the before FormaSurge days is treating me well enough, this Elite Labs Ostanish is the shiznit though. Never again will I drink the disgusting thing that is liquid Osta!

Have my ostarin, forma and other pct related goodies... Start my PCT from hella/katana/transderm in about a week and a half.... Hope i have as good a set of results as you do... Cycle has been awesome so far...
PCT Day 25
Weight: 174 (+9)
I'm down to about 5 days left on this PCT, so things are winding down. I've maintained everything well, so I am pretty happy that I have the worst part over with, and can just concentrate on trying to add on more mass and strength slowly over the next 3 months or so before I start my next big run!
My body composition looks the same, which is a huge positive IMO. I actually figured if I would be able to hold this size, that I would at least put on a little bodyfat, but it appears that I haven't. When I do my final pics I will also get a bodyfat measurement with calipers to verify where I'm at, but if it has changed it hasn't changed much if any at all. I really thnk having FormaSurge and Ostarine in my PCT has helped this and kept me just as lean, even though I've been eating enough to add some.
My workout went a lot better than I expected it to. I got a phone call at 2:30 AM and it was work with a bunch of problems, so I had to go in VERY early and skip my normal morning workout. I had to wait until after work and do my workout riding on about 3-4 hours of sleep. It was also right in the middle of my feeding window and not the normal fasted training I'm used to. There was positives to this though. I almost forgot how nice it was, and how big your pumps could get from having a good amount of preworkout carbs in you, and I think that helped my energy levels too. The result was me adding either weight or reps to every exercise except BB Curls but I did match previous numbers on them. All in all, it was a great workout!
DC Workout 2B (Biceps, Forearms, Calves, Hamstrings, Quads)
BB Curls (rest, pause)
125x7x4x3 (+0 reps)
Pinwheel Curls (straight set)
70sx12 (+1 rep)
Standing calf raise (straight set)

Lying Leg Curls (rest, pause)
110x9x4x3 (+10 lbs per leg, 20 lbs total)

430x20 (+10 lbs widowmaker)

I maintained my weight down only .5 so I may take some pics on Friday depends on how I feel. I was looking much leaner last weekend, got a little watery early in the week but that is clearing...

I have also felt great on it, and my performance in the gym has INCREASED during PCT. All of those things equal a big win in my book for FormaSurge!Recoverbro Elite"This is what we've been working on"
PCT Day 27
Weight: 174 (+9)
My last couple workouts of this PCT are getting put into the books, and everything is still going great. I had a very very rough day at work the day before this workout, and woke up before hitting the gym feeling like I had been in an MMA fight. I have a pretty physical job, and that last day was one of the worst. I burned a ton of cals and spent a lot of energy fatiguing myself at work, and my body felt it. I really expected to have a very poor performance in the gym, but I actually held up much better than I thought I would. I matched previous numbers on DB flat bench, and added 10 lbs of weight to lat pull downs and triceps exercises. My standing overhead press started out good on the first set, but the next one I failed, so I was forced to drop the weight a little and completed the rest, pause set with a good amount of reps with 15 lbs less. My lower back was pretty spent too and I really didn't want to make it worse with heavy deads, so I stuck to a couple sets of 225 just to get the work in without pushing it.
I have one more workout, then I will get some pics and final bodyfat measurements soon....probably this weekend!
DC Workout 1C (Chest, Shoulders, Triceps, Back Width, Back Thickness)
DB Bench Press (rest, pause)
110sx11x5x3 (same)
Standing overhead BB Shoulder press (rest, pause)
170x9 ,155x6x4
Triceps Machine (rest, pause)
240x8x4x3 (+ 10 lbs)
Front lat pull downs (rest, pause)
260x8x4x3 (+10 lbs)
Deadlifts (straight sets)
Recoverbro Elite"This is what we've been working on"
PCT Day 30
Weight: 173.5 (+8.5)
Well, today is the last day of my PCT, and last day of my log here with FormaSurge. Everything that I was hoping to get from FormaSurge, I got, and also ended up with much much more!
This was the best PCT I have had to date, and I think FormaSurge had a big hand in those results. I not only maintained all of my strength from my cycle, but actually made some more strength gains as well while recovering. I added a good amount of cals and carbs in PCT, but managed to gain only a marginal amount of bodyfat in a month with the help of FormaSurge. It has kept me dry and lean throughout this entire PCT!!
Here is everything by the numbers...
Cycle starting weight: 165
Cycle ending weight: 177.5 (+12.5)
PCT ending weight: 173.5 (+8.5)
Cycle starting bodyfat: 6.5%
Cycle ending bodyfat: 5.7% (-.8%)
PCT ending bodyfat: 6.1% (-.4%)
As you can see, I only dropped 4 lbs in PCT, and the fact that i maintained and even gained strength tells me that the weight I lost was just glycogen and water returning to normal post cycle.
Then when you look at the fact that I only gained 0.4% bodyfat in PCT with the calorie increase...it makes the results look even better!
All of these things tell the same story. Pictures are worth a thousand words, and the numbers don't lie. FormaSurge was an excellent addition to my PCT, and should be a good consideration for anyone to use to help you while recovering!!
Its been a pleasure logging FormaSurge, and I would like to thank BPS for the oppurtunity to try out this great product! Also a big thanks to everyone that followed!
Here are the pics taken today...

Thanks guys! I really appreciate the kind words! As for logs, I'm taking a big break from doing any for a while. I've been pretty much logging nonstop for over 6 months now, so I think I'm due...lol

Excellent Log and review Rick. Sorry I was not in it as much as i would have preferred. I think this is probably my first post. As with all of your logs the conversation was great and plentiful so not being on everyday made it hard to get caught up enough to make a contribution in my limited time.

Jefferies Repeats Strong Buy on MTR Gaming
Jefferies repeated its strong buy on MTR Gaming (MNTG ), saying it sees a big buying opportunity for the casino operator. The company announced it sees fourth quarter earnings per share in the $0.10 to $0.11 and first quarter earnings per share in the $0.16 to $0.18. Analyst Lawrence Klatzkin says that the higher SG&A costs are mostly due to staffing the new hotel at MTR Gaming's Mountaineer resort.
Klatzkin says the company should see revenue flow from the hotel in April 2002. He notes that 40 rooms already turned over and thinks that the company will have all rooms booked in advance. He notes that the company applied for new machines, including 500 which are to be delivered by the third quarter. He believes the company's accounting is conservative. He puts $1.32 fiscal year 2002 (Mar.) earnings per share estimate under revision, noting company's guidance in the $0.96 to $1.03 range. He sees fiscal year 2003 earnings per share of $1.77 and has a $19.50 target on the stock.

Jet-lagged Bears Hold Off Tampa Bay with Ugly 24-18 Win
Posted on 23 Oct 2011 by Debbie Baratz.
In a battle of the last jet-lagged team standing, the Chicago Bears beat the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 24-18. It wasn't a pretty win. The Bears jumped on the board first with a touchdown by running back Matt Forte at the 8:42 mark in the first quarter. Four minutes later, Forte got tackled by Ronde Barber in the end zone and Tampa grabbed two points from a safety. Bears' wide receiver Roy Williams ...

CHICAGO – As a Chicago Bear, Roy Williams has yet to catch a pass in a preseason game. As a result, Williams finds himself in a position battling for the number one spot with Johnny Knox. Usually, a battle for position distinguishes someone becoming strong and good enough to compete for the starting role, but this situation is different. Chicago Bears wide receiver Coach Daryl Drake has exp...

New CBA Could Mean More Salary Cap Casualties
Posted on 18 Jul 2011 by David Willow.
The NFL lockout is well on it's way to being over in a very short time and one of the main issues facing teams will be an adjusted salary cap and the Cowboys are one of the teams atop the league in salary. As it stands they will be somewhere around $18 million over the new cap. So obviously Dallas will be looking to shed some of their payroll. So who's first? Well all signs point to the end of ...

Browns @ Bengals Preview
Posted on 17 Dec 2010 by Fran Berkman.
Here we go again. A pretty familiar storyline as the Browns head to Cincinnati to face the Bengals in a late season divisional game with very little at stake. Both teams are resigned to their fate of missing the playoffs. So this should basically be a walk through right? Don't count on in. Both of these teams would love to win this game. If they can't be the best football team in th...

Charlie Brown tries out for the Cowboys

How many people remember when Charlie Brown used to try to kick the football and Lucy always took it away at the last second and Charlie would always go head over heels but he kept trying and kept thinking (to himself none the less) that Lucy will not pull it away and I will kick that damn football. So far this Dallas Cowboy season, it seems like Charlie Brown and the Dallas Cowboys have somet...

Should Confident Houston Texans Fans Bite Their Tongue?
Posted on 28 Sep 2010 by Zachary Stanley.
While warning fans to beware last week, I still failed to hide the supreme confidence I had in the Texans. I couldn't. They just looked too good in the first two weeks of the season, too rounded, too ready for the next level. As I watched some analysts predict a Dallas victory, I snickered. There was no way a team that in the first two weeks looked offensively dumbfounded could keep up with the...

Lived in my house for 9 years without any electrical issues to speak of. All of a sudden I am getting the Sub Panel breaker tripping on a regular basis. I have discovered that all of a sudden I cannot run the washer, dryer and dish washer all at the same time. I am not getting the individual circuits to trip for each appliance it is the sub panel feed off the main. Any suggestions?
No announcement yet.

Re: Sub Panel continues to trip
I have a subpanel that is hooked into a Gentran system due to rural house loosing powere quite often. The subpanel feed in the main box is what is tripping. None of the individual breakers for each appliance are tripping just the subpanel feed in the main box.
Re: Sub Panel continues to trip
I would start with an ammeter and see what the actual loads are. A problem may exist with your washer or dryer. See if the loads are within normal range both individually and combined (at the main) I agree, it's likely the breaker is not holding. Its always good to check, before forking money out for a new breaker.
Re: Sub Panel continues to trip
just a question or three?
was it wired by a electrician?
who determined the size of breaker feeding the sub panel?
what is the size of the breaker?
and what basic things does the sup panel run?
has any of the appliances been changed out recently? or any thing noticed on any of the appliances (some thing taking longer to work or even noise),
is there a combination or sequence to the appliances running, you say you can not run all three, at once, has the sequence changed recently?
my guess is either one of the appliances is pulling more than in the past, do some problem, or the sequence of heating elements are crossing (when they are turned on),
and or the breaker is getting weak,
but if you do replace the breaker replace with same size that came out, with out knowing the wire size going to the sub panel and knowing if it can handle additional amperage ONLY REPLACE WITH the same AMPERAGE RATING.
Now maybe I read some thing into this that was not meant to be conveyed, but is this sub panels the one the generator operates in an emergence? (if it is just seems like a odd set of breakers for emergency feed to me),
you basically have two possibilities either the appliances or some thing else is pulling more power on the box, or the Breaker feeding the box is getting weak, there could be other reasons possibly as well, but those are the two big ones,
if a breaker is ran at nearly full load a lot of the time, and if they do trip by over load it seems to weaken many of them, they trip faster, or with less amperage, the breakers either work by heat on a bi metal strip or a electro magnet built in side that measures the amount of amps, (the amount of power flowing) and once it reaches a given heat built up or pull on the magnet it disconnect,
HowStuffWorks "Basic Circuit Breaker Design",
If you do not feel capable or have concerns on the swapping out of the breaker, get a qualified person in to do the work, a licensed electrician should be able to pin point the problem and if there are other questionable things, repair them safely, or at least guide one in the proper action to
if you do choose to try the breaker swap shut off the main breaker coming into the panel.Push sticks/blocks Save Fingers

Re: Sub Panel continues to trip
house was done by a union electrical contractor. The feed to the subpanel from the main is 100A. The subpanel was installed to hook the gentran up to it. Only the essentials are in the subpanel in case of a power outage. The appliances all seem to be running as they have for the past 9 years. Nothing new. System ran without issues since installed until a few weeks ago. The sub panel has it own set of breakers for washer, dryer, furnace, freezer, water softner, well and sump pump.

The Last War Cruise Of Old Ironsides
From her chaplain's diary comes this graphic story of the final sea battle of America's famous frigate
April 1955 | Volume 6, Issue 3
In the light of such uncharitable sentiments, it is easy to understand why Chaplain Humphreys cheerfully complied with an order from Captain Stewart to transfer to the Levant as her purser. "A reprieve to any condemned malefactor was never hailed with sincerer gratulation," he declared. The Levant was a new and commodious vessel, abounding in creature comforts which the U.S. Navy did not see fit to bestow upon her tars in those rugged times. Sanitary arrangements on the Constitution , for example, had been overlooked in favor of increased armament—on the Levant they were in the very latest mode. The elegant Captain Falcon had perforce noted this unhappy deficiency on the Constitution and had made it the occasion for typically British criticism of American manners. Lieutenant Ballard had replied pointedly that when his country's reputation was at stake, his fellow citizens were inclined to be indifferent to such small matters "provided our guns tell well, and you can be a competent judge of how far that end has been obtained."
Purser Humphreys' rancor against the British followed him to the decks of the Levant where he found the British purser willing to cheat his king, the young Irish doctor inexperienced and selfish, and all the English officers inferior in education and knowledge of the world to Americans of the same rank. Indeed, Mr. Humphreys adopted a very lofty and critical attitude toward the British Navy.
"The sun of Britain's naval glory has set," he declared somewhat prematurely, "unless measures are taken to prevent influence and sordid interests from rising paramount to merit and ability, and plebeian worth from being obscured by the rubbish of lordly impudence and ignorance."
By March, the Constitution and her two prizes were cruising in the vicinity of the Cape Verde Islands where sailors unfamiliar with the tropics were enraptured by the smooth seas, the schools of flying fish, the fleets of the chambered nautilus, and the patriarchal simplicity of life among the Portuguese colonists. After narrowly escaping running aground while standing in for the land, the little fleet anchored in the harbor of Port Praya.
Mr. Humphreys and his companions possessed a desperate kind of courage, or bravado. They fought against tremendous odds, conscious always of the fact that the enemy might be able to bring his overpowering force to bear against them, and that their continued success—in fact, their very preservation—depended as much upon luck as upon their own skill and daring. A brilliant victory, such as the Constitution had just won against the Cyane and Levant , could easily be followed by the deadliest peril and defeat. With England's entire navy roaming the seas on the lookout for the Constitution , it was a mathematical certainty that the Americans could not enjoy their fortunate immunity forever. They had, in fact, been betrayed into overconfidence by their long streak of luck. The law of averages caught up with them in the harbor of Port Praya.
As soon as the escape of the Constitution from Boston harbor became known, the blockaders, H.M.S. Newcastle , 50 guns, and Acasta , 40, set sail in pursuit, and were soon joined by the Leander , 50, as well. At the same time, every British ship on the Atlantic, whether warship or merchant vessel, was ordered to keep a lookout for the American and to report her movements. It was a miracle that the Constitution had been able to evade this network as long as she had. She was actually betrayed, however, not by an English ship, but by a Russian who had penetrated her disguise on the day before she had fought Cyane and Levant . Sailing westward from that encounter, the Muscovite had on the following day met the British pursuing squadron and given it full information of the whereabouts of its quarry.
The little American squadron had sailed into the harbor of Port Praya at ten o'clock on the morning of March 10. On a bluff which overlooked and commanded the harbor stood the shabby Portuguese town, the residence of the governor, and a few fortifications. Anchored beneath the cliff they found an English brig. Captain Stewart assured the Englishman that the neutrality of the port fully protected him and received equally polite assurances from the Portuguese governor that all the accommodations of the country would l)e freely extended to his American friends. Stewart took advantage of this hospitality to begin landing his prisoners, and the British officers, with his permission, arranged with the captain of the merchant brig to carry them to Barbados under a flag of truce.

Pleasures Forevermore
from Nathan W. Bingham Apr 26, 2012 Category: Tabletalk Magazine
So the wisdom of Agur, found in Proverbs 30, reminds us. Though sin knows no tax brackets — the poor can be greedy and the rich envious — peculiar circumstances tend to produce peculiar temptations. Agur fears that should God lead him into poverty, he might be tempted to steal and thus profane the name of God. He fears in turn that should God lead him into great riches, he might forget God. He asks God to protect him, through His providence, from both temptations. Keep Reading -
God-Centered Preaching
from Nathan W. Bingham Apr 24, 2012 Category: Tabletalk Magazine
...as preachers we want to connect with the congregation, don't we? We want to be relevant. We want to meet our flocks where they are. We have heard the protests for more "practical sermons." These critics desire sermons that instruct on "how I can be a better self," "how I can deal with stress in my life," or "how I can be more successful." And so, acquiescing to these laments, therapy has replaced theology in much contemporary preaching. The self has acquired center stage, and God, if He is there at all, has been marginalized. The focus has shifted from God, who He is and what He has done, to self and our activity, our needs, and our experiences. The assumption, of course, is that theology is not practical, that the study of God is irrelevant for our daily lives. But nothing could be further from the truth. What our people need is God-centered preaching. Keep Reading -
Between Two Worlds: An Interview With Justin Taylor

Tabletalk: What led you to start a blog? Justin Taylor: One of my favorite parts of elementary school was "show and tell." I've always enjoyed sharing with others those things that I find fascinating. Eight years ago, I would regularly send a small group of friends items of interest on the Internet, and blogging seemed like a natural extension of what I was already doing, except for a wider audience. My assumption was that many Christians are already on the web every day. My goal is simply to put before them a steady stream of edifying links, excerpts, and notices that will help us all grow in godliness for God's glory. Keep Reading

Katie's Horror

Gender: N/A Age: N/A Location: N/A
Posted Tue 6th of May 2008
This is my first story. Be gentle... I have more to this story. Depending on the comments and Emails I get, I will post part two.
Katie walked down the dark streets of the rows and rows of townhouses, smiling to herself as she did. The wind blew gently in the night, lightly playing with her long blond hair. The music and noise from the party she just left died away in the dark and cold night as she made her way back to her car a few streets away in the Car Lot.
There's no sound except for the gentle whispers of the wind in the night air. Katie stopped at her car, putting her purse on the hood to fumble for her keys buried in the depth of it.
Soft footsteps behind her begin. She stops cold in her movements, turning around to see if one of her friends were trying to scare her. There's nothing but the opaque darkness of night.
"Kenny?" She said, calling out the name of her friend that likes to play pranks on her. No answer. 'Stupid Katie… Just your fucking head playing tricks…' She thought to herself. Katie turned back around to her purse and found her keys, buried underneath makeup, cash, papers, etc.
The glint of a reflection in the metal of her car from behind her makes her jump. The man pulls her around to face him, grabbing her arms with strength and might. Two other guys walk up behind him, all three smiling with evil, sadistic grins on their faces. Their eyes are hungry, surveying her like a piece of meat, looking her up and down with some sick satisfaction in their faces.
Katie is filled with fear, not knowing what to do, as she sees the other two men join their friend.
"We ain't seen a pretty little thing like you around here in a while…" The man grabbing Katie's arm says.
He grins wide, disgusting, as he eyes her like a predator looking at his captured prey.
"Wh-what do you want-t?" Katie stammers to the leader holding her arms, full of fear.
He smiles, licking his lips crudely. He lets go of Katie's Left arm and reaches into his pocket. His hand bring out a switchblade. He flicks the blade up, and with one swift swipe, cuts right through her shirt and exposing her bra laden breasts.
"This is what we want!" He says loudly. The man pockets the blade and turns his head to the others. "Let's take this bitch back."
The other two close in on Katie. She screams loudly for help. One of the men takes off what is left of her shirt and stuffs it into her mouth, muffling her screams and pleas for help.
The three men drag and carry her through a deserted alley way, lit by the flickering of trashcan fires. At one of the alcoves lies a old and soiled mattress, illuminated by the fires.
They throw her onto the mattress. Katie tries to get up and run past the men, but immediately the Leader of the group catches her as she tries to get past and punches her in the face.
Her body goes limp from the punch. Katie floats in and out of consciousness as the men start to rip and tear at her clothes. Her bra is ripped away. The skirt she was wearing is hiked all the way up and her panties pushed to the side.
Slowly Katie comes to full consciousness, taking in the sight for all of it's horror. She laid there, on the dirty, soiled mattress surrounded by three men, whom started rubbing their cocks through their pants.
The Leader pulls down his pants, fully exposing his big black cock. Immediately he kneels down infront of her. Katie reacts instinctively, shutting her legs as fast as she could with all of her might.
"Ha." The Leader says. "Stupid Bitch."
He pries open her legs with ease and leans his body up into Katie, slowly rubbing his cock head into her tight pussy lips.
Katie screams for help, using any ounce of energy she has in her lungs. One of the other men kneels down by her head and smacks her face hard with so much force. Katie continues to scream loudly.
"Someone shut this bitch up." The Leader says, still rubbing his cock against her pussy lips.
The man at her head reaches into his pants and pulls out a silver plated gun. "Don't even try to fucking bite me, or instead of giving me a blow job, you'll be giving this Beretta one." Katie begins to sob, feeling the gun's tip on the lips, being dragged to her forehead. The man soon takes his cock out and forces it into her mouth.
The Leader continues to kneel between her legs, licking his fingers before starting to finger fuck Katie, crudely lubing her up. He looks into her face, now full of cock and fear, smiling as he grips her hips and slams the entire length of his cock into her tight and unwilling pussy.
Katie screams with the cock in her mouth in pain. It's by far the biggest cock she's ever had inside her pussy and he savagely slammed the entire length into her with so much force.
He begins a steady rhythm of fucking her pussy, pushing her down into the nasty mattress, as the other grabs a handful of her hair and forces her to deepthroat as much as she can. The other man stands in the corner, stroking his cock at the sight before his eyes. He reaches down, yanking her hand up and making her grab his cock. He takes her wrist and forces her to give him a hand job as her mouth and pussy is being raped.
Suddenly, the Leader's cock, already lubed with her juices, slips out of her pussy and he rams it hard and savagely into her little rosebud of a asshole.
Katie screams harder than ever in extreme pain that's coming from her ass. Her screams send vibrations through the cock in her mouth, making it erupt into her mouth and throat. She coughs, gasping for breath as the man fucking her face pulls out of her mouth and smack his cock on her face.
"Bitch got a tight cunt AND a tight ass. We gonna make you loose by the time our little party is done, honey…" The Leader says, drilling her ass, as the other guy that was once getting a hand job drops to his knees and forces his cock into her mouth.
Katie lays there, taking it all, knowing that there isn't a point in trying to fight them off or screaming for help. Her mind is filled with disgust, shame, and fear as her mind remembers the gun and the switchblade they have.
The Leader grins back at Katie again before stabbing his cock back into her cunt, alternating between both of her holes.
The man now fucking her mouth pulls out of her mouth and shoots his cum onto her bare breasts, smearing it onto her with his cock before jamming it back into her mouth to clean it up.
The other that already fucked her mouth stands there, with a gun in one hand, a cigarette in the other and his cock growing hard again as he watches the scene.
The Leader begins to piston his cock in and out of Katie's sore and abused pussy, growling as his thrusts become even more urgent and wild.
"Fuck yeaaaah!!!" He yells out, pumping his cock into her pussy deeply as he unleashes a flood of cum into her cunt. He groans out loudly as he works it all up inside her. Katie cries out in disgust but her screams are muffled by the cock in her mouth. The man with the cock in her mouth pulls out, cumming all over her once pretty, make-uped face.
The Man that was standing and smoking put out his cigarette in the pile of Katie's clothes. After the two others stand up, he lays down beside Katie. The others lift her up ontop of him, forcing her to straddle him as he spears his cock up into her. The Leader that fucked her ass smiles and laughs loudly into the night.
"Fucking ride him, you whore… Give us a fucking show!" He laughs, his cock getting half limp as he watches on in lust.
Tears and cum mix on Katie's face as she is forced up and down on the guy's cock. The other man watching steps infront of Katie and forces his cock back into her mouth. Her cries send more vibrations through his cock. He pulls out of her mouth and walks behind her, pushing her down and fucking her ass.
The Leader stands there, smiling and wolf whistling as one cock plunges in as the other pulls out, seesawing in her cunt and ass.
They all three continue to use her, one of them cumming in her cunt, or ass, or mouth only to be replaced with another. The pull and twist Katie's body like a puppet, forcing her to fulfill their sick desires. Katie lost count of how many shameful orgasms she had at the hands of these men and their cocks.
After what seems like hours, Katie lays on the mattress, broken and sprawled, covered in cum and shame. The Men start to get dressed, laughing at Katie as she cries into the mattress.
They begin to leave the alley way, leaving her to stay on the mattress. One of them throws Katie's ripped and trashed clothes at her.
"Put some clothes on bitch." He says to her.
The Leader grins. "Better be quick about it too. You're our fucking scraps… These homeless fuckers haven't had pussy in years. They'll take anything, even our left overs…" He says to Katie.

The Bell Centre finally came to life in the last minute of the third period when Brian Gionta scored the tying goal against the Detroit Red Wings. But the Canadiens only managed to pick up a point, losing 2-1 in overtime.
Gustav Nyquist scored the overtime winner for the Red Wings.
The Canadiens registered only two shots on goal in a sleepy second period, the first one coming at 12:31.
"They were doing a good job of bottling us up," Gionta said.
"We had no pressure anywhere on the ice. We were second on puck pretty much the first two periods. Most of that they were beating us to everything and it shows."
It was both teams' first game back from a 17-day hiatus during the Olympic break.
"You could tell from most of the players the execution tonight was not there and from both teams, by the way," said Canadiens coach Michel Therrien.
"Both teams played solid defensively and there was not much space on the ice," Therrien said.
It was Alex Galchenyuk's first game back after missing 15 games with a broken hand. He was bumped up to Tomas Plekanec's line in the third period as Therrien juggled lines to try to generate some offense.
Galchenyuk said he felt he played better as the game went on.
"I felt okay during the first and the second period. But I found in the third period I kind of started playing my game a bit, got the legs under me," he said.
Canadiens' back-up goaltender Peter Budaj played a solid game in net, making 28 saves.
Defenceman Jarred Tinordi, who was called up from the Hamilton Bulldogs on Sunday, also turned in a solid performance, playing his first game with the Habs since last October.
With the overtime loss, the Canadiens now have 71 points, one more than the Toronto Maple Leafs in the Atlantic division, and five more than the Red Wings, who have a game in hand.

Large and climatically sensitive regions of the North Atlantic Ocean have become less salty since the late 1960s, a trend that could alter global ocean circulation and spur climate changes by the 21st century.
Reporting in the June 17 edition of the journal Science, Ruth Curry of Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution and Cecilie Mauritzen of the Norwegian Meteorological Institute analyzed salinity data collected over the past half-century throughout the Greenland, Norwegian, Iceland, Labrador, and Irminger Seas in the North Atlantic.
Cold, salty—and therefore relatively dense—waters form in the North Atlantic and drive a global ocean circulation system, often called the ocean conveyor, which plays a big role in regulating Earth's climate [see slide show].
"If you put too much fresh water in the right places in this part of the world, it can actually alter a portion of the ocean circulation that transports heat from the tropics up toward the North Pole," Curry said.
The increased inflow of fresh water comes from increased precipitation and melting glaciers, associated with greenhouse warming.
"Given the projected 21st-century rise in greenhouse gases, we cannot rule out a significant slowing of the conveyor in the next 100 years," Curry said. "We want to know exactly how fast that whole system is changing. It seems to be tipping out of balance as a consequence of global warming."
The study was funded by the National Science Foundation, a WHOI Independent Study Award, and the Norwegian Research Council.

Wondering why the Monte-Carlo Masters isn't mandatory anymore?
Juan Martin del Potro is pulling out of the tournament due to wrist tendinitis. He hasn't played since the Australian Open and he's reportedly out of Barcelona and questionable for Rome, as well. My google translation via ElMundo:
Argentine tennis player Juan Martin del Potro will follow down with tendinitis in his right wrist and will stay away from the circuit in the coming weeks. He will miss next week's Monte Carlo, the third Masters 1000 ATP World Tour and first of the year on clay, and the Barcelona Open Banco Sabadell, next week, according to the newspaper La Nacion. "
According to newspaper reports, the player had his wrist checked in the U.S. by specialist Richard Berger, one of the most renowned in the world in biomechanics and nerves in the hand and wrist, which revealed that he still suffers from "a small residual tendinitis." So be aware that this year will be used to recover and settle in the elite of world tennis.
The information speculates that inactivity may extend to the tournament in Rome, which would delay del Potro's return to the tennis to the 1000 Madrid Masters, an event which starts on 10 May and is on the eve of Roland Garros. And in this second Grand Slam, Del Potro should defend the points he got last year to reach the semifinals.
Monte-Carlo "resident" Robin Soderling is also out due to an "overstrain" in his knee. Robin via his website:
"I've had some problems with my knee since the Miami tournament. The pain has just escalated the more tennis I've played. My doctor has now examined my knee, and I've made a decision of not playing next week's tournament in Monte Carlo."
"This is very sad since Monte Carlo is my "home tournament" and one of my favorite tournaments of the year. But now awaits one week of rest and rehabilitation, and I will hopefully be back to compete in the Barcelona tournament that starts the 19th of April."
Other top 10 stars not in attendance for various reasons: Roger Federer ("vacation"), Andy Roddick ("clay allergy"), Nikolay Davydenko ("broken wrist" – yeah, good excuse, Kolya)
Former top-tenner, Gilles Simon, was on the entry list for this tournament, but is now off tour for at least the next month and questionable for his home Slam in Paris. Via Sky Sports:
World number 26 Gilles Simon could miss the French Open after announcing he will be out for a month with a knee injury.
The 25-year-old Frenchman has suffered recurring problems with his right knee since November 2009 and has not won a single match so far this season.
Rafael Nadal, who sparked some injury rumors during his semifinal loss to Andy Roddick last week in Miami, posted a Facebook message confirming his wholehearted participation in the Monte-Carlo tournament. But his Uncle Toni confirmed in the Spanish media that Rafa indeed did have "a problem in his left knee that prevented him from playing at his highest level [vs. Roddick.]" Toni thinks the "sore knee" is "not important" going forward, though. Hmm. . .let's wait and see how important those knees are come Roland Garros. No doubt Rafa will be working 100% to win his sixth-straight title in the Principality, but the "Nadal knee-advisory" level has just gone from yellow to orange.
As of today, Novak Djokovic and Andy Murray (wildcard) are still going to play.
Come on in, Roger! The water's fine.

- Horse Health
- - Panacur PowerPak
Panacur PowerPak Where's the cheapest place to buy them from? I've found 52.99 from horse.com... can you get them for less? |
Why are you using a powerpac? If you want to treat encysted strongyles and there are no health issues in this horse, moxidectin is actually easier on the GI tract. Fenbendazole has been shown to cause the same sort of damage you treat encysted strongyles to prevent. Fenbendazole treatment mimics the kind of severe inflammatory event in the lining of the GI tract when encysted strongyles are present. Vet Parasitol. 2006 Jun 30;139(1-3):115-31. Epub 2006 May 3. Small strongyle infection: consequences of larvicidal treatment of horses with fenbendazole and moxidectin. Steinbach T, Bauer C, Sasse H, Baumgärtner W, Rey-Moreno C, Hermosilla C, Damriyasa IM, Zahner H. Institute of Parasitology, Justus Liebig University Giessen, Rudolf-Buchheim-Strasse 2, D-35392 Giessen, Germany. The study was undertaken to evaluate adverse effects of larvicidal treatment in horses naturally infected with cyathostomins. Out of 24 ponies kept on pasture, four animals were housed in September and anthelmintically cured to serve as worm-free controls (group C-0). The others were housed in December. Eight animals each were treated 8 weeks later with 5 x 7.5mg/kg fenbendazole (FBZ) or 1 x 0.4 mg/kg moxidectin (MOX). Four animals remained untreated (group C-i). Two, 4, 6 and 14 days after the end of treatment two animals of each of the treated groups were necropsied together with group C-0 and C-i animals. Infected animals before treatment showed weight loss, eosinophilia, increased plasma protein and globulin contents. Treatment was followed by weight gain and temporal plasma protein and globulin increase. Proportions of CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocytes in the peripheral blood did not differ between the groups before treatment but dropped significantly temporally after FBZ treatment. Group C-0 was worm-free at necropsy. Group C-i animals contained variable numbers of luminal and tissue cyathostomins. Histological sections showed larval stages in the lamina propria und submucosa surrounded by macrophages. Either treatment was effective against luminal parasites and reduced the number of larvae in the bowel wall beginning 4-6 days after FBZ and 6-14 days after MOX treatment. Histologically, as a first reaction after FBZ application T lymphocytes accumulated around morphologically intact L4 in the submucosa. Subsequently T lymphocytes associated with eosinophils infiltrated the submucosa. Parasites became enclosed by granulomas with eosinophils adhering to and invading the larvae which started to disintegrate on day 4. Later on, particularly on day 14 inflammation extended into the mucosa and was frequently associated with ulcerations. Third stage larvae in general and L4 in the lamina propria, however, seemed not to be affected until day 14 and even then, parasites did usually not generate extensive inflammation. After MOX treatment severe morphologically detectable alterations of tissue larvae could not be observed earlier than day 14. Different from FBZ treatment, larvae disintegrated and were obviously resorbed without causing severe inflammation in the gut wall. In conclusion treatment with either drug was efficacious against tissue larvae of cyathostomins but there may be different clinical consequences: in contrast to MOX effects, killing of larvae due to FBZ was associated with severe tissue damage, which clinically may correspond to reactions caused by synchronous mass emergence of fourth stage larvae, i.e., may mimic larval cyathostominosis. |
My vets suggested something other than a powerpack to treat my infected horse. He got a regular dose of pyrantel, then a some sort of pills for 5-7 days. I have the leftovers at my barn, I forget what they actually are. My vet suggested that pack safeguard has, to give once a year to once every two years to get ride of the baby worms (also forget what they are called.) My vet has never had a problem with any wormer, except quest gel (caused mouth uclers in some horses) and regular suggests equimax instead of regular ivermectin, because that kills tapeworms as well. |
I was running out to get a load of hay earlier when I posted. In addition to it being used on a lactating mare, here are other reasons why I want to use it: The PPP gets the 3rd stage encysted larvae that moxidectin does not get. I know that the PPP causes a mucus inflammation around day 14 (after the first dose) that mimics the emergence (they're really just dying) of the encysted larvae... it causes some horse to act colicky. I've never had a horse act colicky, so until I have a horse that shows s/he can't handle it, then I'm going to use it. I've read about problems with Quest crossing the blood-brain barrier, and know of someone whose healthy horse died from it... and it was not because of an OD. I've dosed horses with unknown deworming history with PPP and have never had an issue with it. I don't know this mare's history and am looking to PP her in January or February. It would be great if she could get one sooner, but we can't fit it into our rotation at the next deworming. If something in the environment triggers the emergence of the little buggers I don't want my mare to bleed to death internally, I want them out ASAP and it not going to be by the way of Quest because of the above reasons and the fact that she is still occasionally nursing her last foal. |
i love the panacur powerpacs. that sounds cheap to me. the last time i bought it, it was 70 bucks! |
Mouth ulcerations can be seen with moxidectin or ivermectin due to the killing of bot fly larva that are encysted in the gums/tongue. However this is more common with one specific ivermectin product-Zimectrin Gold. Quest Plus doesn't cross the blood brain barrier unless there is a problem such as over-dosing or some damage the the central nervous system or organ dysfunction. Head/neck trauma, inflammation of the central nervous system, EPM, etc can all affect the functioning of the blood-brain-barrier and lead to neurotoxicity from allowing substances that should not pass into the CNS to do get there. I've been party to hundreds of doses of moxidectin being given---even in senior horses, pregnant mares, etc and have seen no adverse reactions. However, you are right, I wouldn't dose it in lactating mares. I simply cannot understand the logic behind giving a drug to kill encysted larva that are doing no damage and with which the major issue is the severe GI inflammation that they can cause if they all emerge at once when you know that the drug you are giving causes the very severe inflammation that is the main reason for getting rid of encysted strongyles. |
I thought My Beau just asked where she could find a PP for a good price, not a long drawn out speech about what a bad horse owner she was being for using it. I personally have never heard of a PP being a bad thing. Ryle you are the first person I have ever heard say they are a bad thing, actually. I have heard people say they are not as affective as some would like them to be but never they are evil. |
Lots of people missed the study done on them in 2006. Until then there hadn't been a study that looked at the adverse affects in that way. And any colic that occured 2 weeks after dosing with a Powerpac was just assumed to be coincidental rather than possibly caused by the dewormer because no one knew that it caused that sort of damage to the GI tract. (I posted a summary of the study above.) |
I read what you posted. Thanks......... Again, you are the one and only person I have ever heard insist that Quest is more safe on a horse with an unknown de-worming history. OP, though I am not fond of Horse.com they seem to have the best prices on those things. I say go for it. |

Craig It was, as one Colorado State Patrol Sgt. put it, the worst crash site he has seen.
A Wednesday night crash on U.S. Highway 40 left two people dead, almost unrecognizable wreckage from a high-speed collision, a fire to be contained, and the highway's closure for more than 15 hours.
"I've been a trooper for 10 years : and this is by far the most devastating crash I've ever seen," State Patrol Sgt. Chad Dunlap said. "I don't mean devastating in terms of injuries or the fatalities. I mean the crash as a whole. I mean the damage, the severity of the heat involved with the fires."
Names of the two victims have not been released.
"We don't know names for sure," Dunlap said. "They're going to have to use dental records to ID the people for sure."
The crash occurred at 8:43 p.m. near mile marker 11, just east of Dinosaur. Alcohol is suspected as being a contributing factor, according to a State Patrol report.
A Ford F-150 hauling a camper trailer was headed eastbound, traveling partially in the westbound lane.
It collided with a Kenworth semi-tractor, belonging to BTI, which was driving westbound. The Kenworth was hauling a tanker, owned by Praxair, which had a full load of compressed carbon dioxide.
Both vehicles were apparently driving at or around the 65 mile per hour speed limit at the time of the crash, Dunlap said.
The Ford was pushed backward and came to rest in the middle of the roadway. The Kenworth veered to the left and began to rotate counterclockwise. The Kenworth and its tanker rolled 3/4 times onto its left side.
The tanker was punctured. Both vehicles caught fire.
The fire spread across "both lanes" of the highway, "as well as the grass shoulder on the south side of the highway," Dunlap said.
The Moffat County HazMat team responded to the accident at the request of the Colorado State Patrol HazMat, which had a longer response time than Moffat County. Colorado State Patrol HazMat relieved Moffat County HazMat once they arrived.
"It was a pretty horrific accident," said Dennis Jones, a HazMat technician with Moffat County HazMat. "Everything was on fire."
The crash scene left little for investigators to determine the make of the vehicles, Dunlap said.
"The only way we could identify (the Ford) was the tailgate," he said. "To look at the wreckage, you would have no idea what that pile of metal was. It was obliterated beyond recognition from the collision and the fire. The semi is the same thing."
The crash closed U.S. Highway 40 from the time of the crash until noon Thursday.
The State Patrol is investigating the crash.
The Moffat County Coroner's Office is investigating the victims' identifications. Names will be released pending notification of the family.
Moffat County HazMat, Colorado State Patrol HazMat, The Rangely Fire Department, Maybell Fire Department and Artesia Fire Department responded to the scene.

An engineer at the University of Liverpool has found how worms move around, despite not having a brain to communicate with the body.
Dr Paolo Paoletti, alongside his colleague at Harvard, Professor L Mahadevan, has developed a mathematical model for earthworms and insect larvae which challenges the traditional view of how these soft bodied animals get around.
The most widely accepted model is that of the central pattern generator (CPG) which states that the central brain of these creatures generates rhythmic contraction and extension waves along the body. However, this doesn't account for the fact that some of these invertebrates can move along even when their ventral nerve cord is cut.
Local control
Instead, Dr Paoletti and Professor Mahadevan hypothesised that there is a far greater role for the body's mechanical properties and the local nerves which react to the surface that the animal is travelling across.
Dr Paoletti said: "When we analyse humans running there is clearly local control over movements as by the time nerve signals travel from the foot to the brain and back again, you will have taken three steps – and would otherwise probably have fallen over."
"We see much the same in these soft bodied animals. Rather than generating a constant wave of contraction and expansion, their movement is controlled and influenced by the contours of the surface they are moving across."
Improving robots
Dr Paoletti, from the School of Engineering, and Professor Mahadevan created a mathematical and computational theory to understand this and then tested these theories under different circumstances and conditions and using imagined worms of different masses. They now believe that this new model could be of use in robotics.
He said: "Replicating the movement of animals in robots is very difficult and often involves the use of many sensors. This new model avoids using sophisticated sensors and control strategies, and could be used to improve robots used for entering confined spaces or which have to deal with difficult terrain."
The paper, 'A proprioceptive neuromechanical theory of crawling', was published in the journal Proceedings of the Royal Society B.

The Horse Forum
- Horses for Sale
- - Looking for advice on possible lease
Looking for advice on possible lease Hi all, I've been looking around for a lease for about a month, and I've come up with the following two options. I'm having trouble deciding what to do, so I figured I would seek some advice from those with more horse and riding experience than myself. Option 1: I can lease a horse for 2 days/week and take 1 lesson/week on a lease day for $615/month, which for me, is on the high side. The advantage of this lease in my eyes is that I can participate in show whenever I'm ready, which is ultimately my end goal in seeking a lease. Option 2: I can lease a horse for 3 days/week and take 1 lesson/week on a lease day for $545/month. I like this option because it makes it much more affordable, and I get one more day of riding. This barn also has a working student program, which means I can work off some of the cost (pro), but I would have to drive to the barn 5 days/week for about $120 in gas/month (con), but it still comes out to be less than option 1. The downside is that I can't participate in show with a partial lease at this facility. To show, I would have to do a full lease. A full lease is $770/month without any lessons. With 1 lesson/week I'd be looking at $930/month, so I'd have to basically work my butt off at the barn to even come close to paying for it. So long story short.. should I go with the more expensive option 1 and be guarenteed the ability to show, or should I go with the more affordable option 2, but no potential to show with a partial lease? I mean what is a decent time frame from when a person begins riding to when they start showing? If it's going to take months, then I'm thinking option 2 might be fine to start. And look at a full lease later. I could use some other opinions! Thanks a lot! |
If you're spending $120 in gas for option 2, doesn't that in theory raise the rate to more than you'd be spending in option 1? How much would you be spending for gas with option 1? |
Technically yea it does. But the $120 in gas is due to driving there 5 days a week to work off ~$160 of the lease cost. So it becomes $505 in total. I would spend about $30 driving to the other location. But that's because I would only be going there 2 days/week. |
Is go with the first one, much less complicated & and in the long run the most cost effective. Unless your parents are paying for it then how do you expect to pay for this lease and work at the barn 5 days a week and ride at the same time? Working at a barn usually = no or late riding time. Not fun. Posted via Mobile Device |
I'd only have to work 1 hr. at the barn per day. It wouldn't be like another full time job or anything like that. So I thought it might not be so bad to work 1 hr. for 5 days and save $160. That covers the cost of lessons once a week at that barn. |
Ask if you can work for 5 hours on one day, or 2 1/2 hour two days. Option one looks like no fun Option two at least you will be at the barn and learn something just by osmosis. |

Shaffner also designed O'Brien's classy, art deco-themed "Tonight Show" set. For this time out, Shaffner (who works with partner Joe Stewart) said he's leaving the art deco behind and focusing on more of a theatrical theme. The inspiration comes from O'Brien's recent nationwide "Legally Prohibited from Being Funny on Television" tour, which gave O'Brien the theater bug.
"Being out there working on his tour, the theater game him a sense of atmosphere between him and his audience," Shaffner said.
Shaffner said he was sad to see his O'Brien "Tonight Show" set (photo, left) disappear from the air so quickly — particularly the show's curtain.
"Oh, I miss that curtain," Shaffner said.
Shaffner's set design credits include "Two and a Half Men," "The Big Bang Theory," "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" and "Friends."
