From head to toe, Christina Milian stole the show on stage in Pasadena, California with her Grecian-inspired look at the 2013 NCLR ALMA Awards. The Dancing With the Stars contestant was a vision in her goddess-style, classic cream-colored Sen Couture gown. Her hair was the perfect pairing in a full, high pompadour, a classic up-do and must-have accessory to achieve the desired look.

Ana Ortiz simply glowed at the 2013 NCLR ALMA Awards. The Devious Maids star was given the beauty treatment by celeb makeup artist Shiyena Chun. Shiyena was inspired for the look by Ana's dress, she told us "When I first saw the dress, it reminded me of an urban goddess." So she centered the look on this inspiration and decided to create a soft, warm, glowing goddess that complimented her hairstyle, which had soft, curls framing her face. "The whole look is very ethereal."

In a statement issued to MCV Pacific, an EB Games spokesperson said: Advertisement Advertisement Regrettably, one of our EB Games store locations in Queensland set-up an unauthorised display within the store in support of the launch of the Grand Theft Auto V video game. The display included a white powdery substance that appeared to be some form of an illegal drug.We can confirm that the powdery substance was 'sherbet', a type of fizzy candy, and at no point did the store attempt to give any of the fizzy candy away. This was an isolated incident, and we apologise for any offence this may cause.Not sure what I love more.

text: Saradice Lostby digbyOne the most surprising things to me about Sarah Palin is that I had her pegged as someone who was a working cog in the right wing machine --- she's a professional politician, Governor of a rural Red State who comes from the evangelical wing of the party, (Mike Huckabee in pumps although the literal visual there is oddly believable ... ) But the Couric interview shows that she really isn't an engaged member of the Wingnut Right at all. Indeed, she seems more like a casual voter than someone who is professionally involved in partisan politics. It's not that she is a stupid person. Maybe she is, but you can't tell that on the basis of a couple of interviews. But she is dramatically uninformed about current events, history, and even Republican politics.And what's more interesting is that she doesn't even have the usual Limbaugh-esque, boilerplate talking points at ready disposal or the ability to stay within the parameters of wingnut political gibberish as Bush does. (He was no better informed in 1999 than she is now, but he had the benefit of growing up in a political family and hearing political talk all his life, so he was able to fake the cadences and attitude well enough.)In fact, it occurred to me today that Palin's "maverickness" may not be maverick at all. It may just be that she didn't know she wasn't supposed to do what she did. It seems entirely possible to me that she thought that going against the oil companies or selling the Governor's jet was a normal thing for a Republican in Alaska to do, not realizing that she was actually doing something that was wholly outside the normal political culture. She just stumbled into doing what she did and everyone thought she was boldly taking on the GOP establishment.I don't know this, of course. But everything about her screams apathetic, non political person who doesn't even read the newspaper or books --- or even listen to talk radio. That doesn't make her dumb --- a large number of Americans are just like that. But it does make her a very, very unusual politician.The strange thing is that I honestly think people wouldn't care about that if she were not the first female, from whom more is expected, and if we weren't in such a turbulent time. To me, the fact that McCain is still even within shouting distance of winning with a running mate so dramatically uninformed is some kind of cosmic joke. But I'm not sure that a majority would agree if not for those other circumstances.Jon Stewart said the other night after one of her bizarre non answers: "Did she win a contest?" I think she did. She won the Hockey Mom contest and got the right to run on the national ticket with John McCain. She was the prototype Republican for the next generation --- someone who knows absolutely nothing about politics at all. I guess they must have figured that Bush's failure was due to the fact that he knew too much.For some witty and penetrating Palin musing, be sure to check out Kathy Gs posts, here and here.. digby 9/30/2008 08:30:00 PM

Abandon is a 2002 American psychological thriller drama film released by Paramount Pictures. It was written and directed by Stephen Gaghan, starring Katie Holmes as a college student whose boyfriend (Charlie Hunnam) disappeared two years previously. Despite being set at an American university, much of the movie was filmed in Canada at McGill University's McConnell Hall.
It is based on the book Adams Fall by Sean Desmond. The book was re-titled[2] Abandon for the movie tie-in paperback printing.
The film co-stars Zooey Deschanel and Gabrielle Union, with Benjamin Bratt playing the detective investigating the boyfriend's disappearance. It received generally negative reviews, with Variety magazine dismissing it as "a tricked-up Fatal Attraction wannabe".[3]
Senior college student Katie Burke (Holmes) is struggling to deal with the stress of completing her thesis and succeeding in an upcoming rigorous interview process. To make matters even more complicated, Detective Wade Handler (Bratt), a recovering alcoholic, reopens the two-year-old police investigation into the disappearance of her boyfriend, Embry Larkin (Hunnam). An orphaned young man of considerable means, Embry had purchased two tickets for Crete before his disappearance; the tickets had never been used and Embry's financial assets had not been touched since his disappearance. With the official reopening of the Larkin case, however, Katie begins to see Embry lurking around campus, seemingly stalking her.
Reporting this back to Detective Handler, who dismisses her as he believes Embry to be dead, Katie isn't convinced but nevertheless returns to school. Falling asleep in the college library while studying, upon waking she finds a number carved into the wood of the desk. Upon investigation, she discovers it references a library book: The Inferno. There she finds Embry staring back at her from the other side of the book stack.
Confiding these troubling events to her friends, most notably her roommate Samantha (Deschanel), Katie learns that during her relationship with Embry, he had acted extremely jealous and even violent toward another of Katie's admirers, Harrison (Mann), whom Katie held only platonic feelings. Shortly thereafter, Harrison seemingly disappears from campus. Convinced that Embry is responsible, Katie confronts him at a local restaurant, only to be asked to meet him at his family's country house.
Once at the Larkin family's country house, however, a violent confrontation ensues between Katie and Embry. Fleeing from the house and finding comfort in Handler, Katie begins an affair with the detective which spurs her to complete her thesis. With Handler closing the investigation, citing that Embry Larkin was indeed alive, and resigning from his job as a detective, he and Katie plan on temporarily retreating to Handler's cabin in New Hampshire. Meanwhile, however, Handler learns from a forensic expert that a note which had supposedly only recently been written by Embry to Katie was, in fact, two years old.
Waiting for Handler on campus, Katie is once again attacked by Embry, who promises to find her wherever she goes before running off. Informing Handler of her encounter with Embry, Katie asks him if the two of them can just leave, but Handler insists on putting a stop to Embry's threats. Following Katie's direction to where Embry ran off, Handler and Katie venture into Embry's former dormitory, which is now abandoned due to the building's derelict structure. As they walk into one of the building's old tunnels, a former spot for Katie and Embry's trysts, Katie begins to interact with Embry, but Handler sees no one.
Through flashbacks, it is revealed that Katie and Embry had been in the same location two years prior, with Embry cruelly breaking up with her and calling off their planned trip to Greece. It is subsequently revealed that as a repercussion of her father's abandonment of her at a young age, Katie possesses severe psychotic tendencies surrounding abandonment. Distraught over Embry's disposal of her, Katie picks up a rock and strikes him from behind repeatedly, killing him.
Attempting to reason with Katie before telling her she can't come with him to New Hampshire, Handler takes notice of something at the bottom of the water. Realizing that it is the skeleton of Embry Larkin, Handler is suddenly struck from behind and falls into the water, echoing Embry's murder two years prior. In the film's epilogue, it is revealed that the dormitory was demolished soon afterward, with plans for the construction of a new structure and thus inadvertently cementing the permanent disappearance of Embry Larkin and Wade Handler.
Katie Burke, now graduated, finally possesses the job she's always wanted; however, when a co-worker informs her that he has been promoted and that the two of them can no longer see each other, a familiar look passes over Katie's face...

This is a collab that took a rediculously long time for no good reason. But anyway, it's here. This is a collaberative effort from people across the globe, amassing to create some a piece of flash animation to accompany the booty shakingly splendid Hip Hop Glados song by Oggy-cheese. We managed to get it on the Portal before it became it fell into the ever present black hole of the flashes that are supposed to be released but aren't. Enjoy!
p.s. Weeeee

Good points:-
Music tied in well.
Not too small nor not too big

great score!
Rated 5 / 5 stars
I came, it was orgasmic.
Great job, some animations could have been a bit better, but the music pulled it through, and it was just made of 650% awesome.
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars

I'm praying my fellow Canadians behave themselves and dont make spectacles like the NYC peeps. Mind you school starts soon so that should help keep the tweens away from 9-3. fingers crossed they have a good shoot here.
ReplyDeleteI have such a girl crush on Elizabeth Reaser. She seems spunky and b!tchy in a fun way. KStew and NReed could take notes and be this cool when they grow up! I know I'm ready for the tomatoes to be thrown at me but I do actually like KStew and NReed and I would love them to make a mentor out of Mama Cullen. I just wish we could so more of Ms. Reaser outside of Twilight.

Product Description back to top
After one recent party a friend left the ePuffer electronic cigarette at my place. So I asked him whether I could borrow it and he told me he had nothing against me using it. I was really trying to cut down on cigs, because my daughter was turning 3 years old and she kept asking why daddy smoked when it was bad for him. It really broke my heart to hear her say those things, so my friend leaving them there was truly a great coincidence. There were still 3 cartridges and an extra battery in his case, I knew I was good for a little bit so I started immediately. This ePuffer was the Super Mini model which was pretty small.
EPuffer electronic cigarettes are so good that they can remove almost all the negative aspects of the real tobacco smoking. As we know, tobacco contains tar, arsenic and plenty of carbon monoxide, which all are not just harmful for the smoker but for the people around the smoker as well. There is so much negative publicity surrounding smoking, that most public places have banned smoking in their establishments. While 20 years ago, smoking played a big part in socializing, nowadays it is really hard for smokers to deal with constant estrangement from their peers.
After I explained to my daughter what an electronic cigarette was and she was very happy and told me that the tiny smoker thing was fine by her. I want to be able to grow old, without being half an invalid and see her get married and have kids one day. Traditional tobacco cigarettes just won't allow me to do that. With the e-cigs I can "light up" anywhere I want to, even if there is a large no smoking sign right there. The only thing that comes out of the electronic cigarette is the vapor which is caused by liquid hitting the air within the cigarette.
I would definitely recommend the ePuffer and the ePuffer coupon code to everyone out there trying to quit smoking. Whatever your reason for wanting to stop, this is absolutely one of the healthiest ways to do it. Stop wasting money on gum, patches and pills and just satisfy your nicotine cravings without putting your overall health at risk. I am sure that others with children and grandchildren want to grow old just as much as I do.

VISITOR REVIEWS back to top
My husband had been smoking for more than 40 years. He had some health problems lately and I wasn't able to make him stop smoking. So I bought him epuffer e-cig starter kit. He took it quite well. He doesn't want to stop smoking tobacco cigarettes, but he is mixing them with e cigarettes. Currently he is on 10 tobacco cigs and one epuffer cartridge. It is some improvement and I hope it stays this way.
Okay, I bought greensmoke, blu and epuffer. Epuffer is cheapy, works well, not too much vapor, not too much battery life. Blu is nice, taste is not my cup of tea, but taking everything into a consideration, it is not bad at all. And finally, Greensmoke: I must say finish looks best of all three, really smooth like real cigarette paper. Greensmoke produces the most respectful amount of vapor of any e cig out there, hands down. It doesn't leak e juice and it tastes really good.
I am sorry, but epuffer is not steaming, for the better word, as well as GreenSmoke. I tried both and for me epuffer is modesty itself. Battery is OK, though, and it will last a whole day. As well, once in, say three cartridges, I would get a little bit of e liquid in my mouth. Not pleasant, but it doesn't happen too often.

Eastermar (Dutch: Oostermeer) is a small village in Tytsjerksteradiel in the province Friesland (Fryslân in Frisian) of the Netherlands and has around 1,600 citizens (2008).[1]
As early as 4000 BC there were nomads in this area. An important archaeological discovery was made at Burgumer Mar, a lake to the northwest of Eastermar. This discovery is known as the Leien-Warten Kompleks. Also found around Eastermar were mammoth teeth and gold rings, now in the Regional Museum in Burgum.
The first farmers settled on the higher grounds east of the Burgumer Mar. Around 1200, the first stone church was built here, which was later known as the Protestant church of Eastermar. The community is believed to be several centuries older than the church. As shown on a 1605 map, originally the name Eastermar referred to this community, now It Heechsân, a hamlet to the east of today's Eastermar. In the Middle Ages there were already several farms around the church and to the north and south of It Heechsân.
This 1605 map shows the ancient Burgumer Mar to the northwest of the village, but not yet De Leien, the lake to the south that came into being during the large-scale peat extraction that took place between 1500 and 1750.
During this period, peat workers built a hamlet at the crossing point between a road and a waterway (Lits). This settlement, called De Wâl, was a place of shipping, trade and craft and became the main centre in this area, eventually surpassing the older hamlet and assuming its name, Eastermar.
After 1750, farming became dominant again in this area, and still is.

E-Rex, with a demonstrated top speed of 160 mph, and 0-60 acceleration in 5 seconds, is Nuvation's demonstration platform for its battery-management system.
Electronic Design's Bill Wong hears about E-Rex from Nuvation CEO Michael Worry while Terry Knight runs the video gear. From this angle, the car's battery compartment, with some of Nuvation's battery –management boards, is conspicuous. The battery-management challenge lies in balancing all the cells. Videos will be up shortly.
The E-Rex cabin is a tight squeeze, as Michael Worry demonstrates to Bill Wong. Still, 6-foot-plus Bill managed to get a demo ride on San Jose's North First Street. He reports that, from a standing start at a traffic light, E-Rex rocketed all the way to the next intersection, "Before the other cars began to move."
What do engineers at a design-services company like Nuvation do for fun? They participate in battlebot competitions with flamethrowers. "We like to have fun," says CEO Michael Worry.
The flamethrower robot has some honorable battle scars.
Willow Garage's PR2 Robots have completed a chore that involves bussing dirty dishes, putting out clean place settings, and selecting sushi items from a revolving display. Now, they've plugged themselves into wall sockets for recharging. Bill Wong's video interview with CEO Steve Cousins provides more detail.
What's on top of that PR2's head? Looks like an X-Box. What's it doing up there? In the video, CEO Steve Cousins explains to Bill Wong how the X-box provides a cheap and ubiquitous interface for developers.

While the rest of the world is busy getting ready for Halloween, I've been busy, busy getting ready for my craft show on November 12th. I made 100 feet of bias binding this week (for bunting banners), but needed a little break from that madness, so yesterday I switched to making pin cushions instead.
There's something so satisfying about making itty bitty things. I have a million tasks on my to-do list today - grocery shopping, pumpkin carving, bias binding making (aack!) - but all I really want to do is make tiny pillows.
Happy crafting,

Several shots show children playing on large fibreglass shapes on a London roof. Commentator tells us the 'play furniture' was made by young designer Keith Albarn for mentally handicapped children. Adults supervise the children as they sit in padded tubs and climb through plastic tubes and tunnels; other children play with plastic and wooden toys. This is a trying-out session for the toys; commentator says reactions are noted before modifications are carried out.
Note: Despite the title, this story does not show any scenic shots of London! Notes on file say the toys were designed for Autistic children, but are here being tried out by 'ordinary school children'.

RIP Bryce Courtenay
One of the world's great novelists has died, aged 79. I have read everyone of Bryce Courtenay's books (except the last). Like many I discovered him through The Power of One – a truly great novel.
His Australian trilogy were equally good, especially enjoying the New Zealand aspects to them. Mary Abacus is a fascinating character, and the story (and book) of Jessica is heart breaking.
Very sad we will get no more novels from him, but I predict his books will be read for decades to come.

CFdesign makes it possible for 3D product designs built in SolidWorks to be evaluated and optimized without any type of translation or conversion process. Changes made to geometry within SolidWorks are automatically reflected in CFdesign, eliminating the time-consuming and confusing process of creating and managing multiple geometry models during a project lifecycle. With CFdesign there is always only one model, and it is updated and managed within the SolidWorks environment.
We believe the global SolidWorks user community is starting to come of age where design analysis is concerned. The value proposition is just too great to ignore, stated Blue Ridge Numerics President, Ed Williams. We consistently see our customers increase product quality and strip away costs while bringing products to market faster than ever before when CFdesign is used hand-in-glove with an MCAD system on the mechanical engineers desktop PC.
When SolidWorks users launch CFdesign directly within the SolidWorks interface, the component or assembly will automatically appear inside CFdesign where comprehensive fluid flow and heat transfer simulations can reveal product performance concerns and identify areas for product optimization.

Computer simulation saved more than $100,000 dollars in the design of a new coal preheating technology for low NOx burners by making it possible to get the design right the first time. The Gas Technology Institute (GTI) is developing a NOx reduction process under a cooperative agreement with the Department of Energy to provide a cost effective, combustion-based alternative to selective catalytic reduction (SCR). Development targets include NOx reduction to below 0.15 pounds per million Btu, reduced CO2 emissions, and a 55% electricity cost reduction compared to SCR. The technology combines GTIs Methane de-NOX reburn technology with a pulverized coal (PC) preheating approach developed for utility pulverized coal combustors by the All-Russian Thermal Engineering Institute (VTI). Many variations of the initial burner design were evaluated using computational fluid dynamics (CFD), making it possible for engineers to determine an optimized design concept. As a result, the initial prototype met the design objectives, eliminating the need to build and test additional prototypes at a cost that would have probably run into six figures each.

Fluent Inc. has announced the release of IcePro 3.0, its Pro/Engineer®-to-Icepak interface. The interface builds on its successful integration of CAD software with the thermal modeling software Icepak.
This release is an advance in the CAD integration paradigm introduced in the previous versions of the interface. By allowing the user to use simplification tools available in Pro/Engineer itself, the time required to get thermal models from CAD systems is reduced dramatically. The philosophy of the integrated Pro/Engineer CAD interface is to take advantage of design engineers' expertise in using Pro/Engineer to define the thermal model, -- Icepak Product Manager, Dr. Rajesh Nair.
The IcePro user can take advantage of many of Pro/Engineer's CAD and database features, such as single instance exporting of repetitive features. The interface allows the user to load an assembly, and export specific parts or sub-assemblies to Icepak. The export mechanism also allows the user to capture non-geometric information.
IcePro 3.0 is now available from Fluent Inc for Windows NT/Windows 2000 platforms only, for Icepak users worldwide for an annual license fee of $2,500. The product will be made available on UNIX platforms at a later date. Visit the Icepak web site and the Fluent web site for a listing of worldwide offices and distributors.
In order to stimulate research in the area of CFD, the CD adapco Group would like to award prizes to researchers. Three prizes will be awarded for outstanding PhD theses which represent important and original contributions to the knowledge in the field of numerical techniques or physical models aimed at simulation of fluid flow, heat and mass transfer and related processes. In addition to a special diploma and invitation to present the research work at one of our User Conferences, the winners will also receive prize money:
1st Prize: 5000 US$ 2nd Prize: 2000 US$ 3rd Prize: 1000 US$
Entries are being accepted from candidates from all over the world. Deadline is September 1st, 2002 and theses up to two years old will be accepted.
For further information regarding submission, please visit www.cd-adapco.com.

NASA Overset CFD Software has been used by Boeing over the past year to run hundreds of CFD calculations. Chimera Grid Tools contains a variety of tools for the Chimera overset grid approach for solving CFD problems. It also contains a program known as OVERGRID, which serves as a graphical user interface to most of the package tools. PEGASUS 5 is a series of mesh interpolation codes for flow analysis problems.
Boeing's Sonic Cruiser is a long-range (6,000 to 9,000 nautical miles) commercial jet that will carry between 200 and 250 passengers, and fly at the mid-40,000-foot level or higher at speeds between Mach 0.95 and Mach 0.98. It will have lower nitrogen oxide emissions than today's commercial airliners, and will be quieter than upcoming noise standards and current airport requirements.

Neck Lift Before and After
236 of 2231
A facelift smoothes loose skin on your face and neck, tightens underlying tissues and removes excess fat. Your bone structure, heredity and skin texture all play a role in how many "years" a facelift can "remove" and, to some extent, influence how long it will last. A facelift can be done alone, or in conjunction with other procedures such as a forehead lift, eyelid surgery, or nose reshaping.

LG Issues G Watch Update To Alleviate Skin Irritation Issue
"Recently it has come to our attention that a small number of G Watch devices have been reported to have developed discoloration and residue buildup on the terminal pins located on the back. While completely safe and unlikely to affect charging, LG will be rolling out a maintenance release over the next few days that will disable the current when the G Watch is not in the charging dock," an LG representative told Android Police. "The maintenance release will be rolled out automatically over-the-air to all G Watch owners. We thank G Watch users for their patience and apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused."
This is one of those instances where science is fun (or not so fun, if you've suffered skin irritation). What's been happening is a chemical process that occurs when an electrical current travels through two different materials (usually metals) and an electrolyte. In this case, that electrolyte is human sweat. The end result is galvanic corrosion.
What LG's update does is disable the current while the smartphone is not connected to its charging cradle. With the absence of current, there no longer exists a chance for the chemical reaction, which itself was leading to minor burns and discomfort.

The Gettysburg area United Blood Services blood drive is set for June 23-24 at the Grace Bible Church, and this year they are trying to sign up more O-positive and O-negative donors.
Out of every 100 people needing blood, more than 50 percent will use type O. It is the most common blood type, with 37 percent of the population having O-positive blood. Because of that, it is the most often used, plus it can be also given to patients who have other blood types. It can be given in an extreme emergency situation when there is no time to cross-match blood. O-negative blood is used in the treatment of babies, and neonatal care facilities require fresh units of O-negative each day to treat their tiny patients.
All blood type donations are needed and welcome. Contact Sandy Wager at 765-2779 to schedule your blood donation for Monday and Tuesday.

Former England all-rounder Andrew Flintoff believes the Kevin Pietersen saga will be forgotten about if England perform well in India.
Pietersen was yesterday added to the squad which will fly out next week for the four-Test tour to the sub-continent after a successful series of meetings in his "reintegration" process following a controversial summer.
The 32-year-old had been excluded from the squad after sending "provocative" text message to members of the touring South Africa team during this summer's Test series.
Flintoff told BBC Radio Five Live: "I'm sure there'll be a few words in the dressing room, in certain ears, to make sure it's a smooth transition going back in.
"But in a few months' time, if we start performing well in India, this will be forgotten.
"What tends to happen is that when a team's doing well, everyone talks about the team spirit, togetherness and how everyone gets on. It's tested when you don't perform.
"When you start having a few bad results, little groups form in the dressing room and people start talking, and that's when it can happen."
Flintoff is currently preparing for his debut as a professional boxer on November 30, against an opponent yet to be confirmed.
While his training for the fight is the subject of a television documentary, Flintoff insists the change of career is a serious concern.
"I've trained hard over the past 10 weeks or so," he said. "I've lost pushing 40 pounds to get in shape. I'm training twice a day, sparring as many rounds as I can.
"It has to be serious. We are doing a documentary, however you can't get into a ring to have a professional fight in the heavyweight division without being prepared. If you're not, you can get hurt in that ring.
"It's completely different. I loved playing cricket but we used to break for sandwiches. In boxing, you go into your corner and you have a minute between rounds.
"I'm having my eyes opened to what boxers go through, the sacrifices and dedication you have to have - which possibly weren't always put in the same category with me in my cricket career.
"I'm enjoying being a sportsman again, getting up for the training, getting the buzz from that and I'm really enjoying the challenge of it."

Rinspeed's UC concept will be shown at the Geneva auto show next year.
Rinspeed unveils its electric UC concept vehicle for Geneva
December 15, 2009
Rinspeed, the Swiss creators of crazy concepts for the Geneva auto show, have turned their attention to urban mobility, unveiling on Wednesday the UC electric commuter vehicle.
The two-seater is powered by an electric motor that makes 91.5 lb-ft of torque. It has a range of 74.6 miles and a top speed of 68.4 mph. The vehicle is controlled by a joystick and measures 8.2 feet in length.
Rinspeed says there's a good chance the UC, which it also calls the "You See," could make it into production if picked up by a volume carmaker.
The company says the UC will be able to be loaded onto a train--to avoid congestion--and will be able to book rechargings on the Internet.

1 Timothy 1New International Version (NIV)1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the command of God our Savior and of Christ Jesus our hope, 2 To Timothy my true son in the faith: Grace, mercy and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Lord. Timothy Charged to Oppose False Teachers3 As I urged you when I went into Macedonia, stay there in Ephesus so that you may command certain people not to teach false doctrines any longer 4 or to devote themselves to myths and endless genealogies. Such things promote controversial speculations rather than advancing God's work—which is by faith. 5 The goal of this command is love, which comes from a pure heart and a good conscience and a sincere faith. 6 Some have departed from these and have turned to meaningless talk. 7 They want to be teachers of the law, but they do not know what they are talking about or what they so confidently affirm. 8 We know that the law is good if one uses it properly. 9 We also know that the law is made not for the righteous but for lawbreakers and rebels, the ungodly and sinful, the unholy and irreligious, for those who kill their fathers or mothers, for murderers, 10 for the sexually immoral, for those practicing homosexuality, for slave traders and liars and perjurers—and for whatever else is contrary to the sound doctrine 11 that conforms to the gospel concerning the glory of the blessed God, which he entrusted to me. The Lord's Grace to Paul12 I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who has given me strength, that he considered me trustworthy, appointing me to his service. 13 Even though I was once a blasphemer and a persecutor and a violent man, I was shown mercy because I acted in ignorance and unbelief. 14 The grace of our Lord was poured out on me abundantly, along with the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus. 15 Here is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance: Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners—of whom I am the worst. 16 But for that very reason I was shown mercy so that in me, the worst of sinners, Christ Jesus might display his immense patience as an example for those who would believe in him and receive eternal life. 17 Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory for ever and ever. Amen. The Charge to Timothy Renewed18 Timothy, my son, I am giving you this command in keeping with the prophecies once made about you, so that by recalling them you may fight the battle well, 19 holding on to faith and a good conscience, which some have rejected and so have suffered shipwreck with regard to the faith. 20 Among them are Hymenaeus and Alexander, whom I have handed over to Satan to be taught not to blaspheme.

US panel: Afghans need more religious freedom Thomas Wagner Associated Press 4:57 AM, Apr 30, 2013 Share Article Florence, Ky.'s Grace Fellowship Church uses biblical, not psychological, counseling to help its members deal with problems such as marital or pornography issues. WCPO | file Show Caption Hide Caption Previous Next KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) - Despite significant improvements since the hard-line Taliban ruled Afghanistan, religious freedom remains poor, especially for minorities, and Afghans still can't debate religion or question prevailing Islamic orthodoxies without fear of being punished, a U.S. commission said in a new report on Tuesday.As the country braces for next year's presidential election and the planned withdrawal of most foreign combat troops by the end of 2014, the panel urges the U.S. government and its allies to work harder to promote religious rights in the war-torn nation.The environment for exercising religious freedom remains "exceedingly poor" for dissenting members of Afghanistan's Sunni Muslim majority and for minorities, such as Shiite Muslims, Hindus, Sikhs and Christians, the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom said in its report."Individuals who dissent from the prevailing orthodoxy regarding Islamic beliefs and practices are subject to legal actions that violate international standards," according to the commission, which was created in 1998 to review violations of religious freedom internationally and make policy recommendations to the U.S. government."The Taliban and other non-state actors continue to target individuals for activity deemed `un-Islamic,' and the Afghanistan constitution fails explicitly to protect the individual right to freedom of religion or belief."An Afghan government official disputed the findings."The Afghan government is fully committed to ensuring religious freedom for followers of all religions in Afghanistan, something our constitution is very clear about," Janan Mosazai, spokesman for the Afghan foreign ministry, said in an email to The Associated Press. Mosazai said that even though Islam is Afghanistan's official religion, the constitution clearly states that "followers of other faiths shall be free within the bounds of law in the exercise and performance of their religious rituals."In its 2013 annual report, USCIRF praises that clause of Afghanistan's 2004 constitution, but notes that another part of the charter says these fundamental rights can be superseded by ordinary legislation. This shortcoming is compounded by "a vague, repugnancy clause" that says no law can be contrary to Islam and allows courts to enforce it, the commission says.In addition, the penal code discriminates against minorities by allowing courts to defer to Shariah, or Islamic law, in cases involving matters such as apostasy and conversion that are not explicitly addressed by the penal code or the constitution, resulting in those charges being punishable by death, the report says.Because of legal restrictions, "Afghans cannot debate the role and content of religion in law and society, advocate for the rights of women and religious minorities, or question interpretations of Islamic precepts without fear of retribution or being charged with religious "crimes' such as apostasy, blasphemy or insulting Islam," USCIRF says.Religious freedom is especially repressed in areas heavily controlled by the Taliban, which governs by their own interpretation of Islamic law, the report said.It cited two cases in 2010-2011 during which Afghans accused of converting to Christianity were prosecuted in the courts for apostasy, but later released. USCIRF also noted that marriage is formally restricted to Muslims and that non-Muslims are allowed to marry as long as they do not publicly express their faith."The few Afghan Christians, converts from Islam or their children, long have been forced to conceal their faith and cannot worship openly," the report said. "The situation for Christians worsened in 2010, when authorities arrested 26 Christians. After their release, many fled to India, where they have applied for refugee status due to a fear of religious persecution."Despite restrictions on religious freedom, Afghanistan has been largely spared the sectarian violence that has roiled Iraq and neighboring Pakistan.Afghanistan recorded its first major sectarian assault since the fall of the Taliban regime in December 2011 when a suicide bomber slaughtered 56 Shiite worshippers and wounded more than 160 outside a Shiite shrine in the capital. The Taliban condemned the attack, and suspicion about who was to blame centered on militant groups based in Pakistan, where Sunni attacks on minority Shiites are common.Some violence in Afghanistan, however, does have religious overtones.In November 2012, Sunni and Shiite students clashed at Kabul University on a Shiite holy day, and at least one person was killed. That same month, Afghan security personnel and local residents reportedly prevented Sikhs from performing cremation ceremonies for their deceased relatives, the report said.In an earlier court case not cited by USCIRF, Sayed Parwez Kambakhsh, a journalism student, was condemned for blasphemy in 2008, for distributing material found on the Internet questioning women's rights under Islam, and sentenced to death. However, a court later commuted the sentence to 20 years and President Hamid Karzai then pardoned the student.Mosazai said the state of religious freedom in Afghanistan today must be compared with the suffering and brutality that people of all faiths suffering during the 1990s, first during the civil war, then under the Taliban regime.He praised USCIRF for a passage in the report saying that since then, "conditions for religious freedom have markedly improved, especially for religious minorities."USCIRF concludes its report by recommending that the U.S. and its allies "increase and strengthen diplomatic, development and military engagement to promote human rights, especially religious freedom." It also urges the U.S. to raise directly with Karzai "the importance of religious freedom, especially for dissenting Muslims, Muslim minorities and non-Muslim minorities."

Lot 239: Anthony Frederick Augustus Sandys (1929-1904)
by Christie's
February 19, 2003
London, United Kingdom
Frederick Sandys (1829-1904) Please Register/Login to access your Invaluable Alerts
Description: At Vespers signed and inscribed ''Vespers'/by F. Sandys/property of/E.M. Crosse Esq.re/St. Alban's' (on an old label on the reverse) oil on panel 24 x 19 7/8 in. (61 x 50.4 cm.) PROVENANCE W. H. Clabburn, and by descent to his daughter Louisa (one of the sitters) and her husband Edmund Meredith Crosse; by descent to their son, E. Mitchell Crosse. Anon. sale, Sotheby's London, 27 November 1984, lot 28, when acquired by the present owner. . LITERATURE E. Wood, A Consideration of the Art of Frederick Sandys, Special Winter exhibition of The Artist, 1896, pp. 47-48. B. Elzea, Frederick Sandys, 1829-1904, A Catalogue Raisonn', 2001, no. 2.A.40, p. 167. EXHIBITION London, Grafton Galleries, Fair Children, 1895, no. 273. London, National Gallery of British Art, Millbank, Paintings and Drawings of the 1860 Period, 1923, no. 8. Victorian Childhood, 1986, cat. pl. 8. NOTES The sitters are the daughters of W.H. Clabburn, a wealthy textile manufacturer who was an important patron of Sandys in Norwich, prior to his move to London. On account of the children's age the painting can be dated to circa 1861-2. Mary Louisa (1850-1886), the elder daughter to the left, married Edmund Meredith Crosse (1846-1918), the son of Edmund Crosse who established the grocery provisions firm of Crosse and Blackwell in 1830, with Thomas Blackwell. The younger daughter, Lucy (1857-1914), did not marry. The identity of the sitters was lost when the picture was acquired in 1984. However, they can be identified from the uncut gallery proof of J.M. Gray's article for the Art Journal of 1884, preserved in the Castle Museum, Norwich, but sadly not published in full: 'The unfinished picture of the Misses Clabburn - two white clad girls, standing against a holly background, singing from a music book which they hold in their hands, recalls in the rounded beauty of the freshly coloured faces the charm of some of Mr Millais's earlier renderings of innocent English childhood'. Although there are touches of colour in the red and blue linings of the sleeves, and the orange held by the younger child, the picture is in fact incomplete, the white of their vestments being the prepared white ground of the canvas. This did not trouble either artist, patron or critic however, and the painting is a rare depiction of untrammelled innocence from an artist who more usually depicted raven haired temptresses (see the marginally later work, Love's Shadow, lot 91). There is historical precedent for the figures of the children, singing, or at prayer, in the fifteenth century Flemish altarpieces which Sandys was known to have admired. An example would be the well known Portinari altarpiece of Hugo van der Goes (1474-5), now in the Uffizi, Florence.

Q. Last August I booked a flight from Gatwick to Lanzarote for November 2012 and paid £160 return. Looking at booking well ahead for November 2013, I was staggered to see that the price had gone up 73 per cent to £277! All airlines I checked seemed to have hiked their prices this year - are they in collusion?
Sylvia Mather
A. The bosses of Monarch, Thomas Cook Airlines and Thomson Airways will be wryly amused by your question. The main carriers that connect the UK with the Canary Islands are just as fiercely competitive to Lanzarote as they are for many other desirable destinations. That is why Britain, and specifically London, is the best place in northern Europe to begin a journey to many Spanish locations.
November is a splendid month to claim a reviving burst of sunshine, still-warm sea and relaxation in one of the finest Spanish islands. Lanzarote has a winning combination of great beaches, weird volcanic scenery and architectural flourishes by Cesar Manrique.
More pragmatically, November is the cheapest month of the year in which to travel, with no school holidays intruding to push up prices.
I expected to find return fares in the £150-£200 range, and without any trouble I found plenty of availability on Monarch at around £170 or £180. Fares on Thomas Cook and Thomson were typically £100 higher – but frankly only someone desperate to lock in to specific dates would pay nearly £300 for a return flight. The two holiday companies may sell a few at that sort of price, but in fact their focus is on using most of the capacity to sell inclusive packages. With almost a year to go, they can both be relaxed about the level of bookings, knowing that there will be a surge of interest come September when everyone finishes their summer holiday and seeks a winter break. By the start of October, you can expect much keener prices from both – and with a few days to go, prices for complete packages will probably fall to £200 or lower.
I can imagine your impatience to get a holiday booked, but please relax. I have been lucky enough to fly to the Canaries, including Lanzarote, many times in November, and none of those has been on a full aircraft. So even the day before, you can expect to get a good deal.

The only governor to RSVP to Rick Perry's day of prayer may be a no-show
Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback is the only governor who accepted Gov. Rick Perry's invitation to his Aug. 6 day of prayer. Now Brownback is on vacation and isn't committing to an appearance at the day-long event. …
Perry Watch: Full speed ahead after judge tosses atheists' lawsuit against prayer event
Delivering his ruling, U.S. District Judge Gray H. Miller said participation in the event is voluntary and that the plaintiffs had not shown a "particularized concrete injury." He also noted that plaintiffs had other means of registering their disapproval, including not attending, not praying, exercising their free-speech rights and voting. …
Looking for clues: What does it mean if Rick Perry doesn't speak at prayer event?
The organizers of the big prayer event at Reliant Stadium now say it's possible that Rick Perry won't speak.
But he might.
What does it mean if Perry opts out of a speaking role at the nationally hyped event? A longtime Perry watcher gives us his best guess.
…Perry Watch: "I truly believe with all my heart that God has put me in this place at this time to do his will"
While Perry spokesman Mark Miner could not verify an Internet transcript of Perry's remarks, he said it contained nothing inconsistent with the governor's belief that "every Christian is called into ministry" whether serving as a church leader or in the workplace, and that "God provides opportunity throughout peoples' lives to do his will." …
Perry Watch: Governor sparks national controversy with Day of Prayer partnership
Gov. Rick Perry's Aug. 6 day of prayer and fasting at Reliant Stadium is generating significant heat nationwide, with critics protesting the exclusively Christian focus of the event and Perry's partnership with the controversial American Family Association, which advocates against gay rights.
Expressing objections on a variety of religious and cultural grounds, some opponents have organized a protest on Facebook, while others are urging the nation's 49 other governors invited by Perry to boycott the event.

Hi Gurus,
I am sending messages to MSMQ queue from BizTalk via MSMQ adapter. I need acknowledgement on full receive of the message (by the recipient from the queue). It doesn't work for me no matter what Acknowledgement Type I sent in the MSMQ Transport Properties. I know that the Full Receive ack depends on the TTL (time to live) of the message. But this cannot be set in the MSMQ transport properties. There is only Timeout, but it only works for reaching the queue (here is what MSDN says about timeout: "Specify the maximum time to wait for the messages to reach the destination queue. Applies only when you use transactions."). I set this Timeout property to 10 secs. If I set Ack Type to FullReceive I only get acks when messages picked from the queue. But I never get nacks (obviously because TTL wasn't reached). I think the default TTL is 4 hours. I also used other Ack Types like NegativeReceive, etc. but nothing gave me NACKs if the message is not picked from the queue. I could actually achieve it via WCF-NetMSMQ adapter where you can sent the TTL value and will get NACKs if it elapsed.
Does anyone know how to make the FullReceive work via MSMQ adaptar and receive NACKs if the message is not received from the queue within 10 secs?
Thank you

What's the big boob?
For as much as people don't mind seeing boobs everywhere...they sure don't like to see the true use of why women have boobs...to feed babies!
(yours truly: putting my nursing cover on)
I personally think it's awesome to see another mom nursing (not because I want to see her boobs! ha ha ha, but because I'm glad another mama chose to nurse her baby and all the awesome benefits for the baby:
*protects against infection
*protects against illness
*protection against allergies
*enhances development and intelligence
studies have shown babies fed mother's milk (even through a tube) showed higher IQ at ages 7.5-8 years old than babies who didn't get any "maternal milk".
*increases bonding with baby and mama
*everything from helping prevent obesity to so many more benefits!
and mama gets some too..with burning an extra 500 calories a day! I love that!)
*increased mama emotional support-
nursing releases "oxytocin"...the hormone which relaxes mamas and makes them feel bonded with the baby
*the list goes on...and on...
but one of my extra-favs is (delay in getting your stupid period! I've gone over a year while nursing without getting that thing! hooray!)
So if you are boob feeding...and need to do it in public (which I do very discreetly) I'm not gonna whip my boob out in the middle of Target and feed my baby, bare boob and all....
I'll use a blanket if I have to...but pretty much I take one of these covers with me everywhere I go!
(just shove it in my purse!) And I will save some people from witnessing me nursing! ha haI have both of these covers, the Mz. Kitty, leopard print one from Covers by Kye
and this super cute polka dot one with hot pink "icing" rick rack on the bottom, called Doo Wop!
Both of these covers are super easy to slip over your head, they are lightweight (some others I've tried are too heavy and make baby hot), so baby can breathe easily, it doesn't make you hot either, and they are super cute!!
If your want to order one too, click here:

Justin Bieber didn't do himself any favors in his March 6 deposition over a battery lawsuit filed by photographer Jeffrey Binion. The photog claims Bieber's bodyguard beat him up, but based on snippets of the deposition released by TMZ, Bieber wasn't having any of it.
Seriously, Bieber came out looking like an absolutely horrible human being in these videos. From his slurred words (was he even sober?) to his wink at the camera in the above clip, Bieber seems to embody all the negative things people have to say about him.
It is hard to completely judge the deposition from these brief clips. Bieber gets annoyed by the nature of the questions asked here, but it could be they lead to justified ends. He frequently compares the deposition to a journalistic interview — likely because the conversation sometimes touches on hot-button media topics like his relationship with Selena Gomez — and Bieber even pretends to fall asleep at one point.
By far the best/worst snippet is the below one, which has such a great moment we won't spoil it for you:

Never ask you anything, get your facts straight. Like I said, if you carry your glock in holster with one in chamber I'm with you. You did stated in your original post that you carry with the clip, then edited your post. End of story. |

Thanks for proving my point... HARD...
And stop accusing me of editing. When I see that I've made a typo or grammatical error, I correct it. So do yourself and everyone else a favor... When you get ready to respond to a carefully worded viewpoint or thought; Take a second... Count to ten... re-read CAREFULLY whatever you are about to recklessly smear with incoherent drivel... Then re-read what you YOURSELF wrote before you post it. That way your mouth won't taste so revoltingly much like foot the majority of the time. ... whether you realize it or not. ~LT ... Oh, and in case you need more evidence... Quote:
For some reason... ... And it's not the end of the story simply because you quit paying attention. That's why you sound stupid to everyone else who has actually been paying attention. Last edited by LordTio3; April 9, 2010 at 11:07 AM. |

Boys, boys . . .
People who engage in peeing contests tend to get wet.
FWIW, I am one who made a comment - one which I was careful to phrase politely and which remains unedited - about my concerns with carrying a Glock with a clip. I read the OP twice, then went back and checked it again before posting my comment, but the portion of the OP that I addressed isn't there any more for whatever reason. Everybody mis-states things once in a while. Seems a lot healthier to just say "Oops" and correct a misunderstanding than to get one's blood pressure so high. Since this is a beat-to-death subject and the exchanges are getting nasty, we can pretty much bet on this thread being closed pretty soon. Too bad it has to be this way on these boards sometimes. |

Really, the predominant reason I am so offended is not because of the people posting on this thread. For the most part, you are all civil and quite helpful. The reason I am so offended and upset is because of the Private Messages I'm getting because of this. They are simply awful and I won't repeat anything on here for the sake of civility.
Thank you to all who remain helpful and productive. And in retrospect, Vladan, if I offended you, I apologize. I realize now that this was probably just a long string of misunderstandings that got out of hand. I respect that you wish to be helpful and that you ultimately agree with me on this issue. Thank you for your contribution and I apologize again if I took out my frustrations on you publicly; as you were not the cause of the distress that prompted it. That was unfair and I like to think I'm a better person than that. Takin' it down a notch..., ~LT |

I'm sure it was already mentioned, but the OP mentioned condition 1 and condition 3. Yo, there is condition 2. I.e. just about every real double action out there. Buy a REAL GUN, like a SigSauer P220, with a decocker, and you get the best of both worlds. Point and click, and safety that can't be mechanically compromised. Or, you don't buy a gun with true double action capabilities, and you deal with issues that are a compromise; like choosing between condition 1 and 3; dealing with no 2nd strike capabilities, and dealing with safety. Your choice. Me personally, I'll stick with my sig and CZ.

Appreciate folks working things out without "help". It's always nicer for everyone that way.
Did you know that there is a TEXAS State Rifle Association?

I have a confession to make. I'm a no good, stinking copycat. As soon as I saw Jen's blog post on Grainline about her Arizona shorts, I knew that I wanted to make my own in a similar fabric.
Well I lucked out on my own awesome fabric and made this pair of shorts from the same pattern I used awhile back for my coin button shorts.
Just like the coin button shorts, these shorts have big pockets, are trimmed with bias tape, and have an invisible side zip closure.
I've been getting a lot of use out of these shorts when the Bay Area decides to throw in a hot day, so please pardon my wrinkles!
On my blog too! www.nattyjanesews.blogspot.com
