This post was written by Tracey Chesser, Director-Heifer Village.
Celebrating the past and present commitments of congregations, Heifer Village debuted new activities for families and provided opportunities for visitors to learn about Heifer at its inaugural Congregation Appreciation Day on Saturday, July 27.
Activities for Congregation Appreciation Day were built around Animal Crackers, one of Heifer's free resources for programs or study groups. Visitors participated in the Pigs Super Sniffer game where they tried to identify vegetables by smell while blind-folded, and learned more about Heifer's 12 Cornerstones for Just and Sustainable Development and the use of livestock through Heifer Bingo. Other activities included working with fiber to create friendship bracelets and creating a lively mural.
Perry Jones, executive director/social entrepreneur for Heifer's USA Program, delivered a powerful presentation of Heifer's work in the United States.
This marked the first Congregation Appreciation Day at Heifer Village. Heifer Ranch will hold a similar event this fall, and Heifer Village is working on another event for Spring 2014.

"Cheetah sisters, we stand together." If those lyrics aren't familiar, the intro to this post isn't going to make much sense. However, I thought since I was styling a cheetah coat this fall; I'd reference my favorite girl band. Obviously this was middle school me, who was still obsessed with all things Limited Too and High School Musical. My mom knowing this got me tickets to see the Cheetah girls, my 5th-grade year. And Yes, it was a fabulous. Although I outgrew the Cheetah Girls, I didn't outgrow cheetah print. However, my opinion is take it in moderation. So moving on to the outfit. On top I'm wearing a cozy ribbed sweater from Express. On top of that, my boyfriend coat from Nordstrom's. For pants, I usually resort to my faux leather leggings from Express. They still have the legging feel, but look a lot more put together. Lastly, my boots are by Vince Camuto. So there's the outfit! Although it's quite simple, it looks put together and stylish.
I have lots of new content coming very soon. :)

What's with Satan and the fruit in the Garden of Eden?
In response to a question asked in the "Ask a Mormon Anything" section. Q: Mormons think the fall was necessary to bring about God's plan, so why would Satan encourage the fall? Wouldn't that be helping to bring about God's … Continue reading
Why do Mormons erroneously believe Lucifer is Satan?
The argument goes something like this: The word "Lucifer" in Isaiah 14:12 presents a minor problem to mainstream Christianity. It becomes a much larger problem to Bible literalists, and becomes a huge obstacle for the claims of Mormonism…The first problem … Continue reading

NICE has assessed the My5-FU assay to help the NHS decide whether to use this product.
The My5-FU assay is used to measure levels of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) in blood samples of patients having 5-FU chemotherapy. These measurements may guide changes to the dose of 5-FU so it is enough to treat the cancer, but is not toxic to the patient.
NICE has recommended the My5-FU assay only for use in research for guiding changes to the 5-FU dose given during chemotherapy. The technique shows promise, and NICE recommends that more evidence on its use in NHS clinical practice is needed.
Your responsibility
This guidance represents the view of NICE, arrived at after careful consideration of the evidence available. When exercising their judgement, healthcare professionals are expected to take this guidance fully into account. However, the guidance does not override the individual responsibility of healthcare professionals to make decisions appropriate to the circumstances of the individual patient, in consultation with the patient and/or guardian or carer.
Commissioners and/or providers have a responsibility to implement the guidance, in their local context, in light of their duties to have due regard to the need to eliminate unlawful discrimination, advance equality of opportunity, and foster good relations. Nothing in this guidance should be interpreted in a way that would be inconsistent with compliance with those duties.
Commissioners and providers have a responsibility to promote an environmentally sustainable health and care system and should assess and reduce the environmental impact of implementing NICE recommendations wherever possible.

Now, my introduction this book series was somewhat similar to hers. I had a friend during my freshman year of high school that would read the Twilight books when we hung out at our local Boys and Girls Club. This was before the movie was even filmed, so I had no idea what it was at the time. Eventually I began to read it too and she and I would talk about it when I finished each book. I wasn't sure why I liked it so much, it was probably because it was the first YA book I'd ever read and most of the content was so new to me.
Things like love triangles were so new, that I had thought that Stephenie Meyer had come up with the concept herself. When I read the other books I never really paid attention to the "subliminal messaging" that was going on between the pages. I say subliminal messaging because, even if it was unintentional, that's what it was and not that many people noticed it at the time. I feel as though there were a few reasons for this, one because too many people were swept up in the forbidden and intense romance to notice the problems with it and second, in my case, might have been too naive to fully understand the rights and wrongs of the relationship.
I think another thing that attracted me to this series was that I, in some small way, wanted to be like Edward or Jacob. I wanted to sweep a girl off of her feet and have her fall madly in love with me. It was a romantic thought that I could actually have a love like this, not realizing how toxic it could be for me.
So I kept on reading the books and during my sophomore year this girl I had developed some feelings for had decided she wanted to read Twilight. Our mutual friend had lent her the first one and I believe I lent her the final three. Anyway, due to Twilight we had developed this bond, even though I never had nor will ever have a shot with her, through this series we had developed a mutual interest over, we started talking and hanging out more, which lead to Twilight having a special place in my life. We actually became pretty crazy over vampires, me doing a lot of research into vampire origins and her doing some pretty disturbing research of her own, such as an Egyptian queen who bathed in the blood of children thinking it would grant her eternal youth, and reading pretty much every vampire book she could get her hands on. I pretty much stuck with classic Dracula for a while, eventually discovering the amazing Vampire Academy series by Richelle Mead.
As I grew and matured I began to notice some weird things about this series I loved, pretty much how co-dependent the two main characters were. Though it may sound romantic to find a love that's so strong that you literally couldn't live without that person, it's very disturbing at the same time. The thing is, you can't depend on one person for the rest of your life, whether you're male or female. I really just couldn't get over the fact that Bella went catatonic and Edward was going to commit suicide all because this person they had only known half a year was no longer there. I know it sounds pessimistic but at the end of the day the only person you should count on is yourself, not to say you can't count on others but merely that you should be prepared if they do ever let you down.
In the end, I don't want to be the one to say you can't like something just because I don't, but I do want to say the cliche "don't knock it til you try it" because in the end you can't go purely off of what other people say. I was going to make a video about this on my YouTube channel that I've been putting together, but since Christina beat me to it first I thought I'd give her all the credit she deserves and simply write a response. So please, go back to Christina's blog and comment with your feelings if you haven't already, and if you want leave yours below please feel free to do so.
I'd like to thank Christina for being the first I've seen to come forward and share her experiences and feelings about Twilight and recognizing it as something that us as book bloggers cannot just ignore like it never happened, since in some way we might not be here doing what we do without it.

At the moment a lot of people are choosing to remove the DPF from their diesel cars for one simple reason – cost. A new DPF or Diesel Particulate Filter can cost in the region of £1,500 and after fitting there is no guarantee that the new unit will last any amount of time. This is especially true if you consider that a slight fault with the car may be causing these expensive units to fail prematurely. It is for this reason that we carry out full diagnostic and visual checks when we perform DPF removal on any car. The most common problem we see is that the car has developed a small split in the charge air pipes which causes the car to run richer than normal and therefore smoke, clogging the DPF prematurely. We also see a lot of EGR failures causing problems as they stick open causing an overwhelming amount of smoke for the DPF. These types of problems have subsided quite a bit and can be picked up more easily with the introduction of lambda probes in diesel exhausts and the newer Bosch and Siemens management systems, however can still cause issues.
Once you have booked and delivered your car into one of our fitting centres around the UK we can then start the DPF removal process. First of all the car goes under a full diagnostic and visual check to search for problems that may cause issues after the DPF removal is complete. Once satisfactory, we will then start to remove the troublesome DPF from the exhaust system. This can take 2-5 hours depending on the car, on some of the new Audi A4, A5 and BMW 330D models this is a notoriously lengthy process. Once the DPF has been removed the canister is emptied and put back on the car. If a catalytic converter is fitted to the car we advise that you leave this in place, sometimes they are fitted in the same canister.
Once the DPF has been removed we can then start modifying the ECU software which controls your engine. We manually search for the code which enables or disables the DPF functions. A lot of the time this is done by official Bosch and Siemens byte switches unlike a lot of other companies. Whilst we are doing this, 99% of the time our customers choose to have a remap. This is completely safe as our remaps are custom developed in-house on our own dyno and once complete we log the car to make sure that all temperatures and pressures are not exceeding pre determined levels. To see what exactly a remap can do, read about our BMW 330D DPF Removal Project Car.
Below you can see a screenshot of one of our performance remaps in development:
Most of the time, the ECU can be modified through the OBD socket inside the car, however the newer 2009 onwards vehicles need the ECU removing so that we can connect to it on the bench. We have done 100's of ECU's this way now and can remove, open and modify it without leaving a trace. Here you can see the ECU being opened and connected on a VW Amarok 2.0 TDI.
Once open, we carefully connect to the PCB inside the ECU. One advantage of modifying the ECU in this way is that it does not increment the flash counter and therefore will look like it hasn't been touched from a programming perspective.
We spend many hours researching and developing to bring you the latest DPF removal solutions. We can remove the DPF on cars as new as 2012 and 2013.

Formula One star Lewis Hamilton lost a chance to win the Bahrain Grand Prix after his pit crew made the mistake of fixing his car during the race.
The British driver started second on the grid but had to settle for an eighth place finish, when his mechanic fiddled with the rear wheel-nut during two pitstops, which allowed Sebastian Vettel to win the race.
Hamilton suffered setbacks on laps nine and 23, which gave Vettel a clear run for the finish line. "Unfortunately the pit stops were not quick enough. My job's done. It is the team's job to sort that out and that is what they will do. We were not quick enough, for whatever reason. I don't know what the answer is, but there is only a certain amount you can do," The Sun quoted Hamilton, as saying.
Hamilton, 27, promised to check the mechanic who was at fault. He was later removed from his role as gunman for his final stop.
"I don't know who it is, but I will go and see the guy, try and lift him up. That's all I can do really, otherwise it's about doing my best and trying to remain positive," he claimed.
The pit problems cost Hamilton around 17 seconds in time, which happens to be the latest in his catalogue of race mistakes. He already suffered three problems in the Malaysian Grand Prix. However, McLaren team boss Martin Whitmarsh has promised to remove all errors for the next race in Barcelona on May 13.

Connecticut Treasurer Criticizes Disney CEO Bob Iger's Added Chairman Role
Current chairman John Pepper says criticism, which has also been raised by an investor advisor, "utterly disregards both the company's record of financial performance and that nine out of the 10 directors will be independent.
NEW YORK - The state treasurer of Connecticut, whose public pension fund is a Walt Disney Co. shareholder, has joined the ranks of critics speaking out against the entertainment company's board for giving CEO Bob Iger the added title of chairman, the Wall Street Journal reported.
The treasurer, Denise Nappier, suggested that Disney shareholders vote against the re-election of members of the board's governance committee at Disney's annual shareholder meeting on Tuesday, the paper said. Investor advisory firm Institutional Shareholder Services made a similar recommendation last week, which drew a sharp rebuke from Disney.
Corporate governance experts prefer a separation of the chairman and CEO roles. Iger's predecessor Michael Eisner also drew criticism for his dual role, which led the entertainment giant to have an independent chairman, "unless the board concludes that the best interest of shareholders would be otherwise better served," according to its governance guidelines.
Addressing the Connecticut treasurer's criticism, Disney chairman John Pepper said the conglomerate's board "strongly disagrees with Ms. Nappier's position," according to the Journal. He added that her position "utterly disregards both the company's record of financial performance and that nine out of the 10 directors will be independent, including an independent lead director with duties and responsibilities that exceed in scope those recommended by governance advisors."
Iger is scheduled to take on the additional chairman role as of Tuesday's meeting, but has also said he plans to step down as CEO in 2015, wile remaining executive chairman until 2016.
Nappier called the plan "a regressive policy that could impair the board's role to oversee executive management on behalf of shareholders," the Journal said.
The Connecticut Retirement Plans and Trust Funds hold more than 642,000 Disney shares, which are worth approximately $27 million, the Journal said, citing the treasurer's office.

I just wanted to thank everyone who is supporting us through prayer and finances. With only 10 weeks to go until our trip to Cambodia, there are many things that we need prayer for and we need alot of it. Here they are:
Prayer for the Children at the Orphanage:
*Please pray that the Christmas message that we are bringing them will stick and makes a lasting impact on these children.
*That their hearts become softer so that they will continuously be open to the gospel. Whether they have already accepted Jesus or are just learning about Him. Please pray that their hearts are filled with God's love constantly and that they feel precious.
*For healing of any wounds they may have gotten from losing their parents or their parents giving them up. Please pray that they can overcome any obstacles while developing into a loving adult, including any traumatic experiences that haunt they have been through.
*Healing over any physical ailments they may have.
*For the older children who are reaching the age limit to stay in the orphanage. Life is usually very tough for these children once they are left to fend for themselves at a young age.
Prayer for the team
*Please pray that our hearts become prepared for the trip. That they become soft and that we start to feel more love and compassion for the children we will be serving.
*Please pray for team unity.
*That our dependence on God grows more and more as the trip comes to a near.
*For flexibility as the unexpected comes up during the trip.
*That we start to see more of God's vision for this trip.
*Pray against any spiritual attacks that will come, because the enemy wants to impede whenever people are trying to advance the gospel or pursue God more.
*That we grow spiritually through quiet times and times spent preparing for this trip. And that we are stretched and refined during this process.
*Please pray for more and more desire to seek God.
* More trust and patience in God to meet our fundraising.
Prayer for New Life Church:
*Please pray that the staff and volunteers at New Life Church can shine the light into their hearts of these children everyday, even when it gets tough.
*That they have the energy and strength to take care of these children. Pray for the health of the members of the church who are involved in this ministry. That they get adequate rest and healing from sickness.
*That they are fed spiritually and that they are constantly refreshed so that they can provide and love on these children.
*That they are blessed financially so that they can continue to bless others with their resources.
*That revival happens at this church. One that spreads through their community and throughout the nation.
*That their lives and families are blessed.

Something about Friendship
Friendship Is Special
How do you describe friendship? It's not easy, is it? They say the Eskimos have a hundred words for snow. I am sure we have quite a variety of words in English, or Chinese, for friendship, too, but we are usually stuck with just a few, like good friends, trusted friends, best friends, or intimate friends, etc.
Friends are special people. They don't have to be the same, and a few similarities or a little bit of common interest are good enough to make a couple of fast friends. They are not worried about being judged. They feel good when they meet. They argue, they fight, but in the end, they are there for each other when it counts.
It sounds a lot like family, and it's justifiably so – don't you often have the feeling of family when you are amongst your good friends? On the other hand, it's sad but true: in many cases, you can't even consider some of your family members your friends! That's probably why some people talk to their friends about things that they would otherwise keep secret from their own families. And that's definitely why a true friendship will last a lifetime – consider this: less than half of American marriages can last that long!
I recently came across some interesting writing about friendship on the Internet (www.friendship.com.au) that I would like to share with you:
The Beauties of Friendship by Samuel Francis Wooland.
"A Friend"
- The first person who comes in when the whole world has gone out.
A bank or credit on which we can draw supplies of confidence, counsel, sympathy, help and love.
One who combines for you alike the pleasures and benefits of society and solitude.
A jewel whose luster the strong acids of poverty and misfortune cannot dim.
One who multiplies joys, divides grieves, and whose honesty is inviolable.
One who loves the truth and you, and will tell the truth in spite of you.
The triple alliance of the three great powers, Love, Sympathy, and Help.
A watch which beats true for all time, and never "runs down."
A permanent fortification when one's affairs are in a state of siege.
One who to himself is true, and therefore must be so to you.
A balancing pole to him who walks across the tight rope of life.
The link in life's long chain that bears the greatest strain.
A harbor of refuge from the stormy waves of adversity.
One who considers my need before my deserving.
The jewel that shines brightest in the darkness.
A stimulant to the nobler side of our nature.
A star of hope in the clouds of adversity.
A diamond in the ring of acquaintance.
A volume of sympathy bond in cloth.
Friendship-one soul in two bodies.
An insurance against misanthropy.
One truer to me than I am myself.
One who understands our silence.
A link of gold in the chain of life.
The essence of pure devotion.
The sunshine of calamity.
A second right hand.
Friendship is beautiful, and I can't say it any better. That "One more friend means one more way", as the Chinese people would tell you, couldn't be more true. Now, let's all go make some friends.
A best friend is like a four leaf
I am missing my childhood friend has she went to mumbai ...

Substrate and ecology
: on bark and wood of both hardwoods and conifers, including Juniperus, Pachycormus, Quercus, Pinus, and Simmondsia in woodlands, isolated groves, and forests
World and Sonoran distribution
: offshore islands of Baja California (Isla Cedros) and California (Santa Rosa Island).
: Production of asexual propagules is rather variable, but in most specimens the cortex tends flake off from both smooth parts and rugose parts, taking with it the algal layer. The type is not as heavily schizidiate as some specimens, but it is fertile and shows the variation from smooth to rugose lobes. True soredia can be nonexistent to well developed. The species is also unusual in its light brownish lobe cavities. In most specimens it is somewhat variable, having pure white portions, occasional dark brown portions, but the majority of the lobe interiors have a loose mesh of brown hyphae over a white background. This plus the frequently perforate lobe tips separate the species from H. imshaugii. The P- medulla is also useful in separating H. schizidiata from the P+ chemotype of H. imshaugii. The somewhat darkened lobe cavities and perforations suggest H. inactiva, another P- species, but that species lacks asexual propagules and differs in accessory seconddary metabolites. Small presorediate specimens can be recognized by their brownish cavities, isotomic dichotomous branching, and perforations in the lobe tips and lower surface.

We are off and running here! All of our teachers are full time. This year we have quite a few new students between our JH/HS grades. I also just heard yesterday that one of our students who graduated last year will be playing football at OU! He got his uniform yesterday! Of course, he won't get any playing time this year, but that gives him a whole year to grow and improve. Look out next year! We're not OU fans at our house, but I'm so proud of this student and his potential. We're a very small school, so news like this is huge! It's been an exciting start! I'm getting new curriculum for my elementary lessons this year. I can't wait to start using it. I found some great bundles on TPT. Since testing is so different this year I'll have more time to spend in that building. I'm hoping for a longer, more consistent schedule. The kids have already been asking when I get to start lessons in their classrooms. I will also get to start having lessons with the 7th/8th graders. I've never had time for these two grades, so that it also exciting to me. We're going to be doing some career exploration to start.
The temperatures are cooler already here, which makes me sad. I think we're going to close the pool this week. That is the final sign summer is over. I love the pool. It's my favorite thing to do in the summer - float and read. The pool and I have a date nearly every day. I return to school August 1st each year and work quite a ways from home. That means my pool time is restricted to Saturdays if I'm home. Since the weather has been cooler, I haven't been in it on those days in a while. The forecast for the next couple of weeks is the same so, we made the decision to close it. Therefore, I'm sad, really sad, to see summer go. But, new things come with the new season.

The second draft of A Profile for IPv6 in the U.S. Government – Version 1.0, NIST Special Publication 500-267, was released this month. Included in the description of how, when, and why IPv6 should be deployed, the document also contains IP security considerations. The following is the Executive Summary:
The suite of protocols commonly known as Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) has been under design and development within the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) and the Internet industry for over 10 years [1]. This industry led effort was initiated in the early 1990's to address perceived scaling problems in the Internet's addressing and routing architectures. Today stable standards exist for basic IPv6 functionality; commercial implementations and services are emerging; and, vendors and large user groups are pursuing significant product development and technology adoption plans. The United States Government (USG) is one such large user group, and most Agencies across the government are beginning to plan for the adoption and deployment of IPv6 technologies in response to: mission driven technical and economic assessments of the technology [151]; broad Government policies [154] [155] [158]; the product release plans of major vendors; and, the plans and actions of other organizations on the Internet. Given the prevalence and importance of Internet technologies in Federal information technology (IT) systems today and the nature and scale of both the opportunities and risks associated with significant deployments of new networking technologies, NIST was tasked [154] with an effort to evaluate the need for additional standards and testing infrastructures to support USG plans for IPv6 adoption. As part of this effort we examined the state of IPv6 specifications published by the IETF; the present state of maturity of commercial implementations; the evolving Department of Defense IPv6 profile [144] and product testing program [145]; and, national and international profiles and testing programs driven by the vendor communities [143]. The objective of this analysis was to determine: (a) where significant technical gaps exist in the near term technical landscape for IPv6 deployment; (b) what, if any, additional standards and testing infrastructures and processes are needed to assist Federal agencies to achieve safe and economical adoption of this new technology.Our findings from these efforts include:
- A subset of network layer IPv6 specifications has stabilized and operationally viable commercial implementations of these specifications are becoming available. Agency budgeting, procurement and deployment planning, could benefit from a common identification and definition of such IPv6 capabilities.
- While significant commercial implementations have and continue to emerge, broad vendor product lines are currently at varying levels of maturity and completeness. Until there is time for significant market forces to effectively define de facto standard levels of completeness and correctness, product testing services are likely needed to ensure the confidence and to protect the investment of early IPv6 adopters.
- The current state of IPv6 security and network protection technologies and operational knowledge lags behind that of IPv4 and the existing Internet. Additional efforts are required to "raise the bar†in these areas to ensure the safety of IPv6 deployments in operational Federal information technology systems.
- While, in general, the proliferation of technology standards is to be avoided, the existing DoD and industry profiling and testing efforts are currently not well suited in content, or governance, for the perceived requirements of the USG as a whole. In the near term, the broad requirements of civilian agencies can be better met by a distinct profile and testing program. In the long term, it would be desirable to converge and harmonize these efforts into broader collaborative user/vendor profiling and testing initiatives in which the technical and process requirements of the USG can be fully accommodated.
- Some key IPv6 design issues remain unresolved. As the USG begins to undertake significant operational deployments and investments in IPv6 technology, additional efforts are warranted to ensure that the eventual resolution of these design issues remains consistent with USG requirements and investments.
This document recommends a technology acquisition profile for common IPv6 devices to be procured and deployed in operational USG IT systems. It is intended to address several aspects of findings 1, 3, 4 and 5 above and will be augmented by additional documents and activities including:
- Development of operational guidance for the secure deployment of IPv6 [150] to further address findings 3 and 5.
- Development of an open public testing program for IPv6 technologies [149] to further address finding 2.
This standards profile is meant to: (a) define a simple taxonomy of common network devices; (b) define their minimal mandatory IPv6 capabilities and identify significant configuration options so as to assist agencies in the development of more specific acquisition and deployment plans; and, (c) provide the basis to further define the technical meaning of specific USG policies. The scope of the device taxonomy and the selection of mandatory capabilities and identified options are purposefully conservative in some ways; defining systems and capabilities that are thought to be of common utility to the USG as a whole. In other ways, this profile "raises the bar†for some areas of IPv6 technology that are thought vital to protect the current and future security of Federal IT systems and to protect the economic investment of early adopters. Note that it is fully expected that agencies would further augment and/or modify these specifications to meet the requirements of specific IT system procurements and policies. In particular, the profile defines certain significant configuration choices that must be made and specified to fully articulate the set of mandatory requirements for each class and/or instance of device.

Turkey calls on France to halt genocide bill
Turkey calls on France to halt genocide bill – Europe – Al Jazeera English
Turkey has piled pressure on France to drop a proposed law making it illegal to deny that Turkey's Armenian population suffered a genocide, warning its adoption will spark a diplomatic crisis and have economic consequences.
The French parliament is to debate the bill on Thursday, which would see anyone in France who publicly denies a genocide face a year in jail and a fine of $58,000. Parliament is expected to approve the bill.
Armenia says up to 1.5 million of its people were killed during World War I by the forces of Turkey's former Ottoman Empire, a figure Ankara disputes.
As a delegation of Turkish legislators and businessmen met officials in Paris on Tuesday, Abdullah Gul, Turkey's president, urged France to drop the bill.
"It is not possible for us to accept this bill, which denies us the freedom to reject unfair and groundless accusations targeting our country and our nation," Gul said in a statement from Ankara.
Take a close look at the pictures above – they are taken from this link: Genocide Museum | The Armenian Genocide Museum-institute
The Armenian Genocide is the dirty little secret of WWI and the Turks are desperate to keep it that way. Deny, deny, deny, and if you deny often and loud enough perhaps the world will actually believe you. According to figures, that I believe are accurate, 1.5 million Armenian CHRISTIANS were forced marched and starved to death by the TURKS during WWI. The Turks are now threatening that if France adopts this bill it will hurt Turkish/French relations. I would point out that most historians agree that the genocide took place and upwards of a million men, women and children were killed or massacred. The Turks had the same reaction a while back when the United States brought it up at the United Nations and threatened us in the same manner as they are the French.
Take a good look at the pictures above and remember that these were taken less than one hundred years ago. These were people with families, aspirations, and dreams and their lives were taken from them in the most brutal way. One would think that the TURKS would do well to acknowledge their crime and clear the conscious of their nation. Form a supernatural perspective, I believe that the blood of the innocent cry out and there is a blood-curse on the land. It calls to mind the passage in the Book of Revelation that tells of the souls of the martyrs that are under the altar and cry out, "How long Lord, before we are avenged?"
Genocide seems to be the hallmark of the 2oth century as WWI was followed by WWII in which the Nazi's killed over 12 million people focusing on the complete extermination of the Jews, in which 6 million perished. One thinks of Pol Pot, or Idi Amin, but the monster of the century is without question the Russian dictator, Stalin, who killed as many as 65 million of his own people. We should also remember what happened in our own country with the slaughter of the first nation people. Entire tribes were wipes out and if you haven't read the book, Trail of Tears, I would highly recommend it.
In closing todays' post: I believe that man's basic inclination is that of depravity and the genocide of the 20th century is certainly graphic proof of that depravity. We are in need of a saviour, one who can set us free from our basic instincts and change our very nature. This was and is the simple message, the good news, that Yashua/Jesus told whoever would listen, while he walked this earth. His death on the cross paved the way for our salvation and like the Sunday Bun discussed, while we live in the tension between our flesh and spirit, we are nevertheless headed toward a time where our depravity will be forever gone. The injustice and inhumanity shown by the Turks is deplorable and present a cogent example of our depravity fully manifested toward one another. In the end justice will be done no matter how much the Turks protest, for when the King of King returns the score will be settled. How long Lord…. how long?

The drawing of Thor was a design originally begun as a picture of Vulcan, God of the Anvil. The further it progress, the image was converted to that of Thor, God of Thunder, from which derived the word Thursday meaning Thor's Day. The original drawing, done on 9" x 12" white 50lb drawing paper, was created using 2b, 4b and 6b drawing pencils. Most surviving stories relating to Germanic mythology either mention Thor or center on Thor's exploits. Thor was a much revered god of the ancient Germanic peoples from at least the earliest surviving written accounts of the indigenous Germanic tribes to over a thousand years later in the late Viking Age. Thor was appealed to for protection on numerous objects found from various Germanic tribes. Miniature replicas of Mjnir, the weapon of Thor, became a defiant symbol of Norse paganism during the Christianization of Scandinavia.
Curtiss Shaffer graduated from the Art Institute of Pittsburgh in 1991 with an Associates Degree in Graphic Design. He attended the Army School of Engineers at Fort Leonardwood Missouri in 1992 and graduated from Indiana University of Pennsylvania in 1996 with a Bachelors Degree in Art Education. He served as an engineer in the United States Army Active and Reserve components from 1991 to 2001, and therein attended graduate studies at Clarion University of Pennsylvania, Gannon University and the College of New Jersey.

Robert F. Lange Foundation Gallery (21)
Exhibition Overview
Picturesque Prints presents a selection of modern Japanese shin hanga (new prints) landscapes donated to the Academy by local collector Philip H. Roach Jr. Over the past 20 years, Mr. Roach has donated to the Academy more than 1,200 modern Japanese prints, which he began collecting in 1950. A retired architect from New Orleans, he says that modern prints inspired his designs from the moment he bought his first one.
Publisher Watanabe Shözaburö (1885-1962) started the shin hanga movement during the early 20th century and artists and intellectuals who endeavored to revitalize the traditional Japanese art form of ukiyo-e prints further developed the genre. At a time when there was intense interest in European and American art in Japan and earlier ukiyo-e was avidly collected abroad, shin hanga helped to establish a modern national artistic identity within the international art world.
Watanabe, a dealer who exported ukiyo-e prints to Europe and the United States, felt that although conventional ukiyo-e had its strengths, the Japanese woodblock prints of his time lacked novelty and creativity. He was inspired by Western art, particularly watercolor paintings, which were imbued with light and movement. He began to envision contemporary Japanese woodblock prints that incorporated a similar aesthetic.
Watanabe's achievements in this area motivated other publishers and artists to elaborate upon the new style of Japanese woodblock prints he had established. The subject matter of most shin hanga was the same as traditional ukiyo-e, and included the "birds and flowers" and landscapes seen in this exhibition. However, shin hanga artists such as Kawase Hasui (1883-1957) borrowed the Western technique of chiaroscuro (the depiction of light and shadow) as well as Impressionistic methods of portraying vibrations upon the water's surface and hazy atmospheres with soft, pleasant colors. The resulting shin hanga soon gained popularity among domestic and foreign audiences.—Sawako Takemura Chang, Assistant Curator of Japanese Art & Robert F. Lange Foundation Digital Imaging Manager

{Monday Meanderings: Musings & Observations From Beyond the Bead Studio}
Art's Alive Festival
On Saturday, my friend, Rose and I headed about 125 miles north to the small waterfront town of La Conner, WA to visit their 26th annual Art's Alive Festival. In past years, this festival has drawn about 2000 visitors to view art in about 17 different galleries in and near La Conner. Many of the galleries feature regional artists demonstrating wood carving, watercolor painting, weaving or silk painting. Rose and I got a lot of our Christmas shopping done–knowing our gifts will be delightfully unique and will support independent artists, not huge corporations.
Serendipity and Snow Geese!
Rose was driving and I had drifted off to sleep, (I am so not a morning person!). We were about 20 minutes outside of La Conner, when suddenly Rose said, "Oh, look!". And there to the left of us was a huge field teaming with hundreds and hundreds of snow geese. We joined other cars that had pulled off to the side of the road. Serious birders and photographers had out their single lens reflex cameras with giant lenses attached. I was just thrilled to have my new compact camera in my purse. Some women told us the birds had just arrived about 15 minutes ago. It was an amazing sight. The field, which turned out to be part of the Skagit Wildlife Area, was a sea of white.
Back home, I did some research and learned that from November through March each year, thousands of Snow Geese come to western Washington to fatten themselves before the long Spring migration to northern Canada. The Skagit Valley (which includes La Conner) is a major wintering place for the snow geese. The estuaries and moist farmlands provide the nutrition the birds need to survive the bitter arctic temperatures where they breed, and it is here where they find their mates.
Quick Facts:
Here are some quick facts about snow geese (from Nature Photography):
- Weight: Males – 6 lbs Females – 5.5 lbs
- Average speed: 50 mph
- Migration distance: 3,000 miles
- Wing span: 35 inches
- Diet: shoots, roots, grass, bulbs, insects, berries, grains, aquatic plants and invertebrates

When you insert your key into the ignition switch or bring a SmartAccess fob into the vehicle, the key transmits an electronic code to the vehicle. The engine will only start if the code in the transponder chip inside the key or SmartAccess fob matches the code in the vehicle s immobilizer. Because the transponder chip is embedded in the key or SmartAccess fob, it can be costly to replace. If you lose a key or SmartAccess fob, your Lexus dealer can help.

hi i like your poems they are very good. i would like to add you to my friends list if you are willing. i really would very much like you to check my poems and comment freely.
30 Years Too Late
I've always said,
I was born 30 years too late.
I never fitted in to this decade.
I should have seen the 70's,
But I was born 30 years too late.
The 60's were the years of change,
The 70's were the years of acceptance,
When the people were finding their feet,
The governments crooked;
Wars unsolved;
Yet, created some of the greatest art ever.
I wish I had seen the 70's,
But I was born 30 years too late.
Imagine, said John,
As Paul flew with his Wings to the top,
Eagles flew from California,
Then the Zeppelin took the Stairway ...

Oh Nathan Horton, where have you gone? Rather, where has your production gone?
The 2006-2007 season saw Nathan Horton become a thirty goal scorer, and the player everyone pegged him to be when the Cats drafted him in 2003. Sadly, something happened. No one knows what, or why, but Nathans goal production slipped the next two years, leading to his lowest goal total since his rookie season. Horton only put up twenty two goals in the 2008-2009 campaign, a year the Panthers needed offense more then ever after trading away Olli Jokinen.
Horton did suffer an injury that caused him to miss fifteen games, but still, twenty two goals in sixty seven games is a little weak for one of our highest rated players. Nathan was also put back at center most of the season, a position he played when drafted by the Panthers. I don't see how that is a valid excuse for not putting the puck in the net, especially when he played the center position all the way up until NHL draft day.
There really is no excuse for the way Nathan Horton has played the last two seasons. He looks lazy and bored on the ice and does not seem to have that same fire he did three seasons ago. There are some games where that fire makes an appearance, and you can tell, because he goes back to his old style of play. The real question is, how does DeBoer get Horton to use that fire every night? Maybe the reunited line of Booth-Weiss-Horton can provide Nathan with that spark.
The Panthers are going to be counting on Nathan Horton this year, maybe even more then ever before. If the Panthers were to miss the playoffs again one has to imagine that there would be a fire sale that would see some players shipped out for youth and prospects. I also believe Nathan Horton is sitting on top of that pile of players that could be had if the team slips off the grid again.
Let us not think like that though, let us think that we have a team that can finally get over the hump, because I think we do. The only problem is we need solid production from everyone on the team, especially Nathan Horton.
Tomorrow's article will feature starting goalie Tomas Vokoun. If you all have any questions or comments you can contact me at firstname.lastname@example.com or you can post them on our facebook page and I will be sure to respond.

The sarangi is a stringed instrument carved from a single block of wood. The player bows its four melody strings (it has up to 40 sympathetic resonance strings) with the right hand and stops them, not with the fingertips, but the nails of the left. The sarangi's malleable sound makes it a choice instrument to accompany vocalists; only in the latter part of the twentieth century has it gained popularity as a solo instrument. It's reputedly one of the most difficult instruments in the world to play, and the one musician I know personally who plays one, Fred Lonberg-Holm, confirms that to master it the way it's supposed to be played requires years of devotion. Ustad Hafizullah Khan, who died in 2002, played the sarangi the way it's supposed to be played.
The concert preserved on Khalifa Kirana Gharana took place in Oregon two years before his death; his accompanists (Rik Masterson on tabla and Rose Okada on tambura) may be Americans, but they get the job done. Determined to exploit the sarangi's expressive qualities, Khan takes the disc's three ragas at a measured pace. Curiously, on all three he forgoes the alap, a percussion-free initial improvisation, and launches straight into the vilambit, which is when the solo instrument and tablas articulate the raga's melody together. Khan does this with impressive grace and control, while Masterson plays quite deferentially.
If you're looking for the breakneck steeplechases and lengthy improvisations that are part of the Hindustani tradition, you won't find them here; instead Khan creates drama with succinct articulations of fluid, swooping phrases. Such subtlety means that this isn't the ideal gateway recording for neophytes start instead with a hot-dogger like V. M. Bhatt but if you¹ve already found your footing with the sarangi, there's a lot to appreciate here.

baby maggie
April 3, 2010
Unexpected fun things about having a baby:
1. Finding songs with her name in them…for example:
"Maggie May" by Rod Stewart: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TEoc13bwCw0
"Wake Up Little Maggie" by Terry Cassidy: http://www.picklehead.com/samples/terrysample_wake.mp3
2. Finding lullaby versions of rock tunes by "rockabye baby!". This was a totally amazing find…I've actually found myself listening to this stuff a lot as it's so relaxing. Lots of fun trying to figure out where the melody of the song is…here's the link to the official website where you can listen to a clip of "sweet child 'o mine" by guns n' roses…currently my favourite.
So…it's 2 months in and we're pretty much in love with this girl. She's hilarious, even when she's screaming (okay, not every time…). She's been learning how to smile lately, which is AWESOME! Love her!

Thanks to things like add-on card readers and payment processing apps like Square, the iPad is becoming the new best friend of small businesses. The tablet is able to become a workstation, cash register, and catalog all in one, affording much in the way of convenience and cost-cutting.
Those who have small businesses and an iPad, then, might want to look at Sentry Squared, a new stand for the iPad. What sets this stand apart from the rest is that it can be mounted in a variety of ways – to tables, walls, or to the undersides of cabinets. The slit on the base makes it possible to bolt the stand down, if you're really worried about security. Otherwise, you can use Kensington locks with the stand to secure your iPad in a less permanent way. A card reader adapter ensures that no one can run off with your Square card reader. This is one stand that is big on security – a must if this purchase is being made for an iPad that is ultimately going to be open to use by the public.
As you might expect, there is a cut-out for the 30-pin connector, plus the two cameras. There is also a pinhole for access to the power button – a preferable option, again, because this will ostensibly be for an iPad open to use by the general public. Better safe than sorry.
The stand is made from recyclable aluminum, and comes in black and white. The Sentry Squared iPad Stand is available for pre-order now for $199. The site says that the stand will ship in two weeks.
