(Chicago, IL) — Police and city leaders and even President Obama are all reacting with horror to the specifics of the case against four young people accused of kidnapping and torturing a disabled man in Chicago. Prosecutors filed formal charges, including hate crime charges, yesterday. The four are looking at decades in prison for the videotaped attack that shows them cutting and cursing a man with a mental disability.

Last summer I had the pleasure to spend a week in Umbria. The agriturismo was situated just under the beautiful city of Assisi. Built on a series of terraces at the base of mount Subasio, the town derives its name from the original Roman town of Asisium. The museum dedicated to its Roman history is quite wonderful and is found directly under the principal piazza.
It is a important pilgrimage spot for Christians thanks to Saint Francis of Assisi. He was not only born there, but lived the greater amount of his life in and around the town.
For my studies I chose to focus on the Basilica of St. Francis that is found at the very end of the town. It has such a impressive profile.
The above picture depicts the light just before sun broke over the edge of the mountain. The extreme heat of the Italian August makes painting during midday infeasible. And the light that fell on the city was definitely more interesting in the morning and early evening. The second painting depicts the evening light effect.
These sketches are on auction at the Brigham Galleries. Bidding closes in about 3 days. Please check it out here. Below is another watercolor painting in the same auction.

Pigasus and the Yippies
MR. KUNSTLER: After you arrived in Chicago did you have any discussion with Jerry [Rubin]?
THE WITNESS: Yes, I did. We discussed the nomination of a pig for President.
MR. KUNSTLER: Would you state what you said and what Jerry said.
THE WITNESS: We discussed the details. We discussed going out to the countryside around Chicago and buying a pig from a farmer and bringing him into the city for the purposes of his nominating speech.
MR. KUNSTLER: Did you have any role yourself in that?
THE WITNESS: Yes, I helped select the pig, and I paid for him.
MR. KUNSTLER: Now, did you find a pig at once when you went out?
THE WITNESS: No, it was very difficult. We stopped at several farms and asked where the pigs were.
MR. KUNSTLER: None of the farmers referred you to the police station, did they?
THE WITNESS: No.
MR. FORAN: Objection.
THE COURT: I sustain the objection. ...
MR. KUNSTLER: Would you state what, if anything, happened to the pig?
THE WITNESS: The pig was arrested with seven people.
MR. KUNSTLER: When did that take place?
THE WITNESS: This took place on the morning of August 23, at the Civic Center underneath the Picasso sculpture.
MR. KUNSTLER: Who were those seven people?
THE WITNESS: Jerry Rubin. Stew Albert, Wolfe Lowenthal, myself is four; I am not sure of the names of the other three.
MR. KUNSTLER: What were you doing when you were arrested?
THE WITNESS: We were arrested announcing the pig's candidacy for President.
MR. KUNSTLER: Did Jerry Rubin speak?
THE WITNESS: Yes, Jerry Rubin was reading a prepared speech for the pig---the opening sentence was something like, "I, Pigasus, hereby announce my candidacy for the Presidency of the United States." He was interrupted in his talk by the police who arrested us. ...
MR. KUNSTLER: Do you remember what you were charged with?
THE WITNESS: I believe the original charge mentioned was something about an old Chicago law about bringing livestock into the city, or disturbing the peace, or disorderly conduct, and when it came time for the trial, I believe the charge was disorderly conduct.
MR. KUNSTLER: Were you informed by an officer that the pig had squealed on you?
MR. FORAN: Objection. I ask it be stricken.
THE WITNESS: Yes.
THE COURT: I sustain the objection. When an objection is made do not answer until the Court has ruled. . .

Get Ready for the Year of the Pig!
This celebration should not be confused with Emile de Antonio's In the Year of the Pig, his 1968 documentary about the Vietnam War. Interestingly, The Smiths used an edited version of a photo from the movie for their1985 album Meat is Murder.
The image above is of a stamp issued by Taiwan's Chunghwa Post Co. Ltd. According to Chunghwa's web site, "two roly-poly red and gold piglets smile at each other, representing nobility and joy." Their plump bodies and smiles convey the abundance and festivity of the year of the pig.
I will be running my first 5k race with my pals Sean and Amy to celebrate. Assuming I survive (I'm no runner), I'll have more to post...

Pork Cocktails?
Be it belly or chop, from Niman Ranch or Meadowbrook Farms, as an accessory to seafood or a wellspring of salumi, pork has been staking such a piggy claim to prominence of late that its appearance in a cocktail feels less shocking than inevitable. What took the little oinker so long?He goes on to note that the flavor of the pork isn't very noticeable in this drink (thank god!), which serves more as a gimmick than anything else. Porchetta, of course, is a pork roast, usually de-boned and rolled. I'm sure you can find a recipe for this traditional Italian dish in a book called Pigs and Pork: History, Folklore, Ancient Recipes about the history and development of pork consumption in Italy. I just picked up a copy at a bookstore in Key West but haven't taken a look at it yet. The pork cocktail reminds me of the 1993 album Pork Soda by Primus, naturally.

More Smithfield News
Interestingly, I couldn't find any news about this on the Smithfield site, but the HSUS has a piece about it here. The press release notes that this decision came after voters in Florida and Arizona--neither of which has a significant number of hog farms, by the way--passed measures to outlaw confinement crates, which are typically 2 foot by 7 foot metal cages in which breeding sows are kept during their pregnancy. While these confinement crates are understandably creepy and cruel, they are the accepted industry standard. In fact, you can find a barely lukewarm response to Smithfield's decision here on the National Pork Producers Council website. According to NPPC CEO Neil Dierks:
Smithfield Foods has made a market-based decision to eliminate gestation stalls from its production system over the next 10 years. NPPC respects the right of all producers to make market decisions they believe are in their best interest. This does not change the association's policy on gestation stalls.I'm left wondering if Smithfield's announcement isn't partly a response to the "Boss Hog" article in Rolling Stone that I blogged about yesterday. (You can find Smithfield's formal response to that essay here as a pdf file in case you are interested.) My hunch is that the pork industry is increasingly worried about what the public is learning about its large scale production operations. After all, in trying to continue to squeeze out a profit the industry has consolidated incredibly over the past few decades. In 1974 there were around 750,000 pig producers, which was down to 157,000 by 1997, with 3% of those producers providing 51% of all pig meat in the United States. In Iowa alone the number of farms with pigs dropped 83% between 1978 and 2002. I'm sure the numbers are even more skewed today. I'll have to make that the subject of a future post. For now, though, the public seems increasingly less likely to have the image of happy pigs on a small family farm in their heads when they think about where their pork chops come from (this, of course, assumes that they think of where their food comes from at all). The rise of what the industry calls "niche pork" (think Niman Ranch or the Chipotle chain) reflects some of this emerging consumer perspective. Certainly large producers like Smithfield want to be seen as "animal welfare friendly" in a changing food marketplace.
The American Veterinary Medical Association and other organizations recognize gestation stalls and group housing systems as appropriate for providing for the well-being of sows during pregnancy. We support the right of all producers to choose housing that ensures the well-being of their animals and that is appropriate for their operations.

Smithfield Exposé in Rolling Stone
Use of Pigs in Military Medical Training
In one course, an advanced trauma treatment program he had taken before deploying, he said, the instructors gave each corpsman an anesthetized pig.Given the well-known similarities between humans and pigs the use of the latter in this manner is not surprising. Neither is the response by animal welfare and animal rights groups, which point to the many alternatives that exist to using animals in this manner. For example, check out this reply to the NYT article by the Humane Society of the United States here. Dawn McPherson of the HSUS reminds us of the outcry during the Reagan Administration about the use of dogs in this type of medical training. Because of the comments they have received after the publication of this NYT story, the Human Society has written to Robert Gates, the U.S. Secretary of Defense, and to key members of Congress to call for an end to this inhumane training.
"The idea is to work with live tissue," he said. "You get a pig and you keep it alive. And every time I did something to help him, they would wound him again. So you see what shock does, and what happens when more wounds are received by a wounded creature."
"My pig?" he said. "They shot him twice in the face with a 9-millimeter pistol, and then six times with an AK-47 and then twice with a 12-gauge shotgun. And then he was set on fire."
"I kept him alive for 15 hours," he said. "That was my pig."
"That was my pig," he said.

Roald Dahl's "The Three Little Pigs"
I think my favorite variant for now is that of Roald Dahl, from his 1982 Revolting Rhymes. You can find a version of it here. It begins with this lovely stanza:
The animal I really dig,Dahl's 1959 poem "The Pig" is also quite worth scrutiny. You can find a version of it here on the interweb, but it also appears in Kiss Kiss (1960).
Above all others is the pig.
Pigs are noble. Pigs are clever,
Pigs are courteous. However,
Now and then, to break this rule,
One meets a pig who is a fool.
Animal Resolutions?
By the way, there is another excellent clip of a walrus doing situps here.

Some Reality: Yesterday 407,000 Hogs Were Slaughtered in the U.S.
The Three Little Pigs Gone Bad
A farmer's home in northern Serbia was destroyed in a blaze caused by three pigs that broke out of their pen, walked into the living room and knocked over the TV, police said Wednesday.
The television tube burst, starting a fire that spread through the house late Monday in Temerin, 50 miles, northwest of Belgrade, local police said.
No people were hurt, but the pigs perished.
The farmer was out at the time, police said.

More Georgia Wild Hogs
There was a bit of controversy this year when Casey Cagle, the Republican lieutenant governor, scheduled his inaugural ball (featuring music by Travis Tritt) for the same night as the Wild Hog Supper. But for me what really upstaged the Wild Hog Supper was the capture of a gigantic wild hog right here in the southern suburbs of Atlanta. Many news outlets carried the story of this second "Hogzilla," which was shot a couple of days ago by William Coursey in his neighbor's yard in Fayetteville. The boar weighs a reported 1100 pounds, ostensibly a record, although Melissa Cummings of the DNR's public affairs department noted that "We don't keep records on hogs."

The Pig Olympics
Once a year one can find awfully cute photos like these of something called the Pig Olympics. The third annual iteration of this event was held in Moscow last April, where these photos were taken. According to a BBC news article, this event is the brainchild of the Sport-Pig Federation, which has approximately 100 members in seven countries. The vice-president of the Sport-Pig Federation, Alexei Sharskov, noted that the pigs are not destined for the table after their time in sport, noting that "They go on to produce a new generation of sport pigs. They don't get eaten. How could you eat a competitor who is known around the world?" Not speaking Russian, I can't find any more information about this elusive Sport-Pig Federation. I did find an article in the Taipei Times saying that a Pig Olympics will be held as part of Taiwan's 2007 Pig Expo, so I imagine we'll have even more photos eventually.
Pig-Sticking in India
The founder of scouting, Robert Baden-Powell, was a big believer in pig-sticking, even writing an 1889 book about it called Pigsticking or Hoghunting. In his Lessons from the Varsity of Life (1933), Baden-Powell wrote that "I never took the usual leave to the hills in hot weather because I could not tear myself away from the sport." Pig-stickers were apparently criticized for the barbarity of this sport, leading Baden-Powell to reply:
Try it before you judge. See how the horse enjoys it, see how the boar himself, mad with rage, rushes wholeheartedly into the scrap, see how you, with your temper thoroughly roused, enjoy the opportunity of wreaking it to the full. Yes, hog-hunting is a brutal sport—and yet I loved it, as I loved also the fine old fellow I fought against.There is a fascinating article about pig-sticking by William Livingston Alden that originally appeared in Harper's New Monthly Magazine, vol. 61, issue 366, June 1880. It notes that "For pig-sticking there are two requisites in addition to the pig—a fast, steady horse, and a good hog spear." You can find this essay reprinted here.
The image above, "Pig Sticking on the Churs of the Brahmapootra--Surprised by a Tiger," appeared in The Graphic in 1891. I found it here with other images from The Graphic and the Illustrated London News.
Feral Pigs and the Bad Spinach
Animals, wildlife and water were in close proximity to the field. We have evidence for fences torn down, wildlife going into the actual spinach fields themselves. That's where the investigation is centered right now. There's clear evidence that the pig population has access and goes onto the fields. Is that the ultimate means of contamination or is that one potential means, including water and wildlife? We're still investigating that.This preliminary finding is consistent with other concerns about feral pigs, many of which come from the industrial pork sector, which fears the spread of disease between wild pigs and domestic herds.

The following video is from Thursday's edition of Investor Beat, in which host Chris Hill, and Motley Fool analysts Jason Moser and David Hanson, dissect the hardest-hitting investing stories of the day.
The U.S. Government shutdown has ended, and furloughed workers are returning to work. But with the "solution" only considered to be a stop-gap measure that kicks the can down the road until these debates reopen in January, could workers be facing another shutdown at the beginning of 2014? In the lead story on today's Investor Beat, Jason and David discuss why some investors could be holding on to some cash this quarter, and why eBay's earnings suggest that the retail sector could take a hard hit if that trend plays out. Jason then suggests that such a pullback could be a very interesting buying opportunity for investors with stocks on their wishlists.
Then, the guys discuss four stocks making big moves on today's market. Shares of Goldman Sachs fell on news that fixed-income revenue took a 44% hit for the quarter. Profits came in at more than $4 billion for IBM, but the market expected more, and shares took a hit. eBay met third-quarter expectations, but lowered guidance sharply for the fourth quarter, which sent shares lower. And American Express hit a new all-time high after a third-quarter profit expectations beat.
Finally, David and Jason tell investors why they'll be keeping a close watch on shares of First Niagara Financial Group and Chipotle Mexican Grill.
Chris Hill owns shares of Chipotle Mexican Grill and eBay. David Hanson owns shares of Goldman Sachs and American Express. Jason Moser owns shares of Chipotle Mexican Grill. The Motley Fool recommends American Express, Chipotle Mexican Grill, eBay, and Goldman Sachs. The Motley Fool owns shares of Chipotle Mexican Grill, eBay, and International Business Machines.

Albert Family, Belle Chasse, Plaquemines Parish, Louisiana
I am trying to find information about my African American, Louisiana ALBERT family.I first found them on the 1880 census enumerated in Belle Chasse, Plaquemines Parish.
The family on the 1880 census were:
William - father/head
Hattie - mother/wife
William, Jr. - son
Thomas (my grandfather) - son
The census info states that they were all born in Louisiana, but I have not been able to learn where in Louisiana.All of the family members may not have been born in Belle Chasse.
Hattie's maiden name is YOUNG, and her family may have been from Lafourche Parish; although, I have not been able to find proof of that.
Hattie was a widow by 1900 (she died in 1901, her name is also spelled Hettie), and the family had moved to Algiers (a section of New Orleans, separated by the Mississippi river).There were other children:Elias, Priscilla, Agnes, Louella, and Rosetta.
My grandfather, Thomas ALBERT, married Lillie BILLY in 1901.He moved across the river to New Orleans circa 1910.
Elias died in 1907
Agnes married Adam LANDRY in 1905 (she died in 1946)
Priscilla may have married a JACKSON (she died in 1942)
Rosetta may have married a JACKSON (she died in 1929)
Please contact me if any of my family info is familiar to you.I have not been able to find my William ALBERT in 1870, and know nothing more about him other than the 1880 cenus info.He may have died between 1892 and 1900.
Thank you.

Knowledge workers use Excel spreadsheets as a simple, non-relational database more often than as an accounting worksheet. That's OK, because it works. The big boys (software engineers) use relational databases, which is like tying together each worksheet in Excel; the tying together of database tables is the relational part. And, about a decade ago, the cool kids started using NoSQL databases which operate more or less like a hash table for blazing fast performance sans the relationships.
There are a few issues with using a person's SSN as a primary key. One issue is that it's a long number, much longer than a 1 – 5 digit integer typically used as a primary key, so it takes a database engine longer to compare numbers.
More importantly, what happens if a person's SSN changes? SSNs can change in domestic violence cases, identity theft, when two people are mistakenly issued the same SSN, etc. You may think, since these are such rare cases, that it's not a big deal for a database; but software systems have to be developed to handle every possible case to work effectively. So, to solve this, most databases issue a sequence of integers for each row. In the case where databases are in a cluster, each database might tag a digit on the end representing which database server issued a specific primary key. In other words, instead of 1, 2, 3; database server #4 in a cluster might issue 14, 24, 34, etc. as primary keys.
Database Best PracticesHaving done a bit of database work, I've learned some best practices that are worth sharing.
1. Primary keys: Never build intelligence into a primary key – a primary key is simply an artifact of the database and it should represent nothing more than a way to access a row in a database table (i.e., don't use SSN as a primary key).
2. Table Names: Database table names should be singular (Employee, Order, Transaction, etc); they should be named for what each row in the table represents, not the entire collection. The reason is that, typically, there's a one-to-one mapping between a row in a database table and an object used in code. For example, in code, an instance variable referencing an Employee object should represent a single employee from the database while an an instance variable that's plural, such as Employees, should represent a collection of objects such as an array or dictionary.
3. Lookup Tables: A lookup table is usually a simple static database table that's used to populate a list or collection. For example, a list of countries that your company ships to. Perhaps, your company only ships to the U.S. and Canada.; later, when you start shipping to more countries, how do you update the pop-up list of countries on your website or mobile app? With a lookup table, you simply add another row to the table with the new country that you ship to. Typically, a look up table also has a column representing a sort order so it can be displayed in a specific order with, say, the U.S. listed first, instead of Afghanistan, since most of your customers come from America.

Message Recap
We all have fears and difficulty preparing for trials. Pastor Mingo shared that though he wants to be someone who is extremely prepared, always defaulting to trusting in the character of Jesus regardless of the situation - he admitted he is just a regular guy and often falls short.
Today we read through Mark 14, a picture that contrasts the attitudes and actions of a spiritually prepared person, Jesus, with a spiritually unprepared person (Peter). Jesus wants Peter—and us—to pick up on the example He sets for how a spiritually prepared person acts, looks, and reacts to chaos.
We began by reading some of the amazing, world-changing things that happened in Acts 2, with the apostle Peter at the helm. At this point in Scripture, Peter has become a bold, unwavering, and passionate leader. But things weren't always this way; in Mark 14, we read about one of the darkest moments in Peter's walk with Christ.
Then Jesus said to [his
disciples], "All of you will be made to stumble because of Me this night, for
it is written:
'I will strike the Shepherd,
And the sheep will be scattered.'" v. 27
The disciples have already seen Jesus do amazing miracles, but here Jesus says that things are about to get chaotic—more than any of them can bear.
"But after I have been raised, I
will go before you to Galilee." Peter said to Him, "Even if all are made to
stumble, yet I will not be."
Jesus said to him, "Assuredly, I say to you that today, even this night, before the rooster crows twice, you will deny Me three times."
But he spoke more vehemently, "If I have to die with You, I will not deny You!"
And they all said likewise. v. 28-31
Jesus knows that our hearts want to stand for Him and be faithful, but He also knows that we are weak and will not always be able to do as our hearts incline. So He promises to go before us. He makes a plan with His disciples to meet them in the place where their relationship began. When He knows we will unavoidably fail, He has already prepared the reconciliation plan.
What might it feel like if those you loved the most would betray you, turn on you, let you down, or hurt you in an unexpected season? Jesus is showing that He has premeditated what His response will be to this hurt. In His moments of solitude, He has prepared.
When we have irritations with others, if we decide in the moment how to react, we fail. We may lash out in anger or say things we don't mean. But if we have predetermined how we will react, we will be ready.
When we have irritations with others, if we decide in the moment how to react, we fail. We may lash out in anger or say things we don't mean. But if we have predetermined how we will react, we will be ready.
Jesus takes His disciples to Gethsemane so that they may observe His preparing for His trial. Though they don't realize what is about to happen, He wants them to remember afterward that He took time to spiritually prepare ahead of time.
Then they came to a place which
was named Gethsemane; and He said to His disciples, "Sit here while I pray." And
He took Peter, James, and John with Him, and He began to be troubled and deeply
distressed. Then He said to them, "My soul is exceedingly sorrowful, even to death. Stay here and watch."
v. 32-34
This is a rare picture of our Savior in his humanity, terrified and depressed to the deepest parts about the battle He faces in the flesh. He is facing an exit from the perfect union and love with His Father. Though God has never tolerated sin, He now commits to becoming sin Himself and denying His own essence in order to reconcile us to God. He instructs the disciples to be alert of what is happening in this place right now. They must hear Him weeping bitterly as the compression of the coming separation from the Father settles in on Him.
He went a little farther, and fell on the ground, and prayed that if it were possible, the hour might pass from Him. And He said, "Abba, Father, all things are possible for You. Take this cup away from Me; nevertheless, not what I will, but what You will." v. 35-36
We witness here the battle between the spirit and the flesh. Jesus desires for His spirit to be filled to endure the reality of the physical chaos that is coming.
Then He came and found them sleeping, and said to Peter, "Simon, are you sleeping? Could you not watch one hour? Watch and pray, lest you enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak." v. 37-38
Jesus tells Peter to pray—not for Jesus, but for himself—that he does not fall into temptation. What's the temptation? He's referencing Peter's promise not to desert Jesus. He describes it like a zone of temptation. The spirit doesn't want to be tempted, but the flesh wanders there on its own.
We need to be spiritually prepared to resist places, people, and things of temptation. Pay attention to the people who walk you toward the worst version of yourself and then call you a friend. Unprepared and unaware, you may not know you're in dangerous waters until your toes are wet, but if you spend time preparing in the spirit, you'll be ready to resist.
Again He went away and prayed, and spoke the same words. And when He returned, He found them asleep again, for their eyes were heavy; and they did not know what to answer Him. v. 39-40
Do you know this feeling? Maybe you desire to be a better spouse, friend, employee, but when it comes time to do the preparation for any of those things, you'd rather not. It's easier to just watch a few more TV shows or relax with some friends. Our spirits are inclined to invest, yet we fail to prepare and so our spirits stay the same.
Then He came the third time and said to them, "Are you still sleeping and resting? It is enough! The hour has come; behold, the Son of Man is being betrayed into the hands of sinners. Rise, let us be going. See, My betrayer is at hand." v. 41-42
By Jesus' words, "It is enough," He tells the disciples that the window for spiritual preparation has closed, though they have not prepared. Now it's time for battle and the hurricane is starting.
And immediately, while He was still speaking, Judas, one of the twelve, with a great multitude with swords and clubs, came from the chief priests and the scribes and the elders. Now His betrayer had given them a signal, saying, "Whomever I kiss, He is the One; seize Him and lead Him away safely." As soon as he had come, immediately he went up to Him and said to Him, "Rabbi, Rabbi!" and kissed Him. Then they laid their hands on Him and took Him. And one of those who stood by drew his sword and struck the servant of the high priest, and cut off his ear. Then Jesus answered and said to them, "Have you come out, as against a robber, with swords and clubs to take Me? I was daily with you in the temple teaching, and you did not seize Me. But the Scriptures must be fulfilled." v. 43-49
Spiritually unprepared people will use God's will as a cover-up for their lack of self-control. In Luke's account of this event, the disciples first ask Jesus if they should strike with the sword, but without even waiting for a response from Jesus, Peter strikes and cuts the ear of a guard. So many times when we do not wait for an answer from the Lord, what results is violence. But Jesus does not condone this violence—He diffuses it.
And they led Jesus away to the high priest; and with him were assembled all the chief priests, the elders, and the scribes. But Peter followed Him at a distance, right into the courtyard of the high priest. And he sat with the servants and warmed himself at the fire. v. 53-54
This is the temptation of which Jesus warned Peter. Peter wants to be considered "present" with Jesus in following Him, but he desires anonymity and neutrality. Do you find yourself praising Jesus on Sunday and then hiding Him behind your back during the work week?
Now the chief priests and all the
council sought testimony against Jesus to put Him to death, but found none. For
many bore false witness against Him, but their testimonies did not agree. Then some rose up and bore false witness against Him, saying, "We heard Him say, 'I will destroy this temple
made with hands, and within three days I will build another made without
hands.'" But not even then did their testimony agree. And the high priest stood up in the midst and asked Jesus, saying, "Do You answer nothing? What is it these men
testify against You?" But He kept silent and answered nothing.
Again the high priest asked Him, saying to Him, "Are You the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?" Jesus said, "I am. And you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Power, and coming with the clouds of heaven." Then the high priest tore his clothes and said, "What further need do we have of witnesses? You have heard the blasphemy! What do you think?" And they all condemned Him to be deserving of death. Then some began to spit on Him, and to blindfold Him, and to beat Him, and to say to Him, "Prophesy!" And the officers struck Him with the palms of their hands. v. 55-65
When falsely accused, the spiritually prepared Jesus remains silent and does not have to defend Himself. (Think about the last time you blew up in self-defense!) When you are prepared and refuse to blurt out a response against false accusations, God has the opportunity to be your defender. Then when a genuine question is presented, Jesus is ready with His answer. Because He has spiritually prepared in advance, He has wisdom to remain calm, have self-control, and discern the real questions.
Jesus' death sentence comes from His own understanding of His identity and willingness to stand firm for it.
Now as Peter was below in the
courtyard, one of the servant girls of the high priest came. And when she saw
Peter warming himself, she looked at him and said, "You also were with Jesus of Nazareth." But he denied it, saying, "I neither know nor understand what you are saying." And he went out on the porch,
and a rooster crowed. And the servant girl saw him again, and began to say to those who stood by, "This is one of them." But he denied it again.
And a little later those who stood by said to Peter again, "Surely you are one of them; for you are a Galilean, and your speech shows it." Then he began to curse and swear, "I do not know this Man of whom you speak!"
A second time the rooster crowed. Then Peter called to mind the word that Jesus had said to him, "Before the rooster crows twice, you will deny Me three times." And when he thought about it, he wept. v. 66-72
Peter is in the opposite situation from Jesus. He is prodded by a servant girl of the high priest, who is possibly the lowest level of threat. And yet he is spiritually unprepared, now challenged under pressure, so he fails to stand for who he really is.
Peter weeps because he has failed his friend Jesus. In this moment, clouded by his own failure, he doesn't remember the complete picture of Jesus or the promise Jesus gave before the storm came: "All of you will be made to stumble…But after I have been raised, I will go before you to Galilee…" Jesus willingly meets us despite our failures.
In Mark 16:7, Jesus is risen and the women are greeted by an angel at the empty tomb:
But he said to them, "Do not be alarmed. You seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He is risen! He is not here. See the place where they laid Him. But go, tell His disciples—and Peter—that He is going before you into Galilee; there you will see Him, as He said to you."
Jesus knows the inclination of our hearts and He is there waiting for us, even when we fail.
Jesus understands what Peter is going through and wants Peter specifically to be reminded about His promise to meet him and not to abandon him in his failure. This is true for all of us; Jesus knows the inclination of our hearts and He is there waiting for us, even when we fail.
Pastor Mingo concluded his message by encouraging us to have hope in Christ to get us through our chaos and to repent and spend time preparing for the battles that are coming our way on earth.
1. Jesus does what when things get intense?
2. Peter does what when things go sideways?
3. How are we prepared when things get intense or go sideways?
Are You Ready?

When asked to describe his job, Matt Lee simply says, "freelancer." It's a boiled-down title for a career gumbo that mixes cookbook author, food writer, cooking show host, and co-owner (with his brother Ted) of The Lee Bros. Boiled Peanuts Catalogue. He's also husband to Gia, a realtor, and father to three boys under the age of seven. Due to the family's busy schedule, dinners at the Lee household often need all hands on deck to succeed.
Though Matt makes a living writing about Southern cuisine, his family's home menus are worldlier. Gia's Italian heritage inspires marinara and Bolognese, while tortillas transform leftovers into tacos. The couple also has an affinity for spicy Asian dishes, spiking everything from spaghetti to salmon with chili oil. Their experiments sometimes get upturned noses: "If the meal is too wild for the kids, they might have frozen pizza," says Matt, "especially if Gia and I have planned an ambitious dinner that we want to savor."
For the pragmatic parents, mealtimes are about balancing healthy eating with common sense. "We buy organic when possible, but we also have a block of Velveeta in the pantry," Matt jokes. While he prefers to purchase sustainable, wild-caught salmon, he shares a "dirty little secret": a fatty farmed filet is much more bulletproof in the home kitchen. "It can be slightly overcooked and still be fall-apart tender and delicious," he explains. Matt likes to crisp his fish skins and then top them with buttermilk mint sauce—a versatile dressing that works with anything from seafood to butterbeans and pork chops.
Here's his recipe:
Crispy-Skin Salmon with Buttermilk Mint Sauce
(Serves 4)
Place the mint, buttermilk, sour cream, and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt in the bowl of a food processor or blender; process until thoroughly combined. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
Add two teaspoons of the olive oil to a large cast-iron skillet or broiler pan and place it under the broiler so that the bottom is about five inches from the heat source. Turn the broiler on.
Score the salmon skin crosswise in three places to roughly portion the fish into four pieces. Rub the remaining teaspoon of olive oil over the skin; sprinkle with remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and the black pepper.
When the oil in the skillet begins to smoke, lay the fish skin-side up in the skillet. Broil the fish until the skin is blistered and charring, about 5 1/2 minutes for medium-rare.
Cut the salmon along the scoring lines into four portions and serve it, skin-side up, with the sauce and Gia's Chili Oil (for the recipe, click here).

Veterans For Peace Take on Drone Makers in San Diego and London
WASHINGTON - San Diego Veterans For Peace and Veterans For Peace-United Kingdom are protesting drone manufacturer General Atomics today, September 27th, in both Poway, California, and London, England.
Both protests are scheduled for 4:00 - 6:00 p.m. local time.
The California action is at the corner of Scripps Poway Parkway and General Atomics Way in Poway, CA. For more information contact Gil Field, Director For Communications, San Diego Veterans For Peace, 858-342-1964, email@example.com
The London action is at Tower 42, 25 Old Broad Street, London, Ec2N 1HQ; tube Liverpool Street; For more information contact Ben Griffin 07866 559 312, email@example.com.
General Atomics is the manufacturer of the Reaper UAV in service with the U.S. and U.K. militaries. The Reaper has been used in numerous attacks in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Yemen and other countries. People targeted by these weapons are killed from above without warning and without due legal process. Numerous entirely innocent people including women and children have been killed by these weapon systems.
VFP is calling for the grounding of Reaper Drones and for General Atomics to stop manufacturing them, and will be highlighting the fact that General Atomics is partially responsible for the slaughter of numerous innocent people in Afghanistan, Pakistan and Yemen.
Other members of VFP are currently traveling from the United States to Pakistan as part of a delegation organized by Code Pink to visit one area where U.S. drone strikes have become frequent.
VFP is part of a coalition organizing an online petition in support of banning weaponized drones.
Veterans For Peace was founded in 1985 and has approximately 5,000 members in 150 chapters located in every U.S. state and several countries. It is a 501(c)3 non-profit educational organization recognized as a Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) by the United Nations, and is the only national veterans' organization calling for the abolishment of war.
This is the world we live in. This is the world we cover.
Because of people like you, another world is possible. There are many battles to be won, but we will battle them together—all of us. Common Dreams is not your normal news site. We don't survive on clicks. We don't want advertising dollars. We want the world to be a better place. But we can't do it alone. It doesn't work that way. We need you. If you can help today—because every gift of every size matters—please do.
Veterans For Peace is a national organization founded in 1985. It is structured around a national office in Saint Louis, MO and comprised of members across the country organized in chapters or as at-large members. The organization includes men and women veterans of all eras and duty stations including from the Spanish Civil War (1936-39), World War II, the Korean, Vietnam, Gulf and current Iraq wars as well as other conflicts. Our collective experience tells us wars are easy to start and hard to stop and that those hurt are often the innocent. Thus, other means of problem solving are necessary.

She will fight for her cousin, a warrior prepared to die just to see her again. She will fight for her friend, a young man trapped in an unspeakable prison. And she will fight for her people, enslaved to a brutal king and awaiting their lost queen's triumphant return.
Celaena's epic journey has captured the hearts and imaginations of millions across the globe. This fourth volume will hold readers rapt as Celaena's story builds to a passionate, agonizing crescendo that might just shatter her world.
Characters: Celaena's journey continues as she has finally accepted her place as Aelin, Queen of Terrasen. This book deals a lot with Aelin keeping the promises she made in her life and taking vengeance where she is due. Aelin is such a complex and striking character, who just when you think that maybe she can't really develop anymore, she does. Manon Blackbeak is now Wing Leader and has to struggle with the demands of the duke and what is best for her people. I know that there are people out there that don't like Manon, and while I don't really understand that, I accept that. However I love Manon, she's cold, cruel, and vicious, but somewhere deep down there are glimpses of a good and moral person and over the course of this book those glimpses come around far more often. As for Dorian, Chaol, and Rowan, I love them all, their flawed and some are broken but their inner-strength really comes out over the course of this book.
Romance: If I had one complaint about this book it would be the romance aspect of it. As if the romance wasn't complicated enough with Dorian a slave to a Valg Prince and Chaol extremely conflicted about whether or not he trusts Aelin after hiding her true self from him and the frightening stunt she pulled in Wendlyn, but now Rowan throws his hat into the ring. I have nothing against any of these characters, in fact independently I love them all, but the plot and world-building of this series is so amazing that needlessly complicated romances kind of distract from the story.
World-Building: This series just keeps getting more and more in depth. I definitely regret not having read The Assassin's Blade prior to this book because many things that I'm sure were introduced in that book come back and play a large role in the first half of this book or so. The sinister plot of the King of Adarlan thickens as we discover his true motivations and about a coming threat far more dangerous than a magic wielding mortal king. As this series continues it's as though layers are added that make the world so real and complicated, but not in confusing or needless way. I can't wait to see how the world will continue to grow in these final two books.
Predictability: There are a great many things I didn't see coming. In fact I never quite knew what was going to happen. There are a few things that seemed obvious, but other than that I had no real idea what was going to happen with these characters, other than Aelin and Manon I think I had feelings at some point that every other character might die. There are moments in this book that are utterly game-changing. It seems that this series keeps reinventing itself in small ways, but in this book that really rings true.
Ending: So the final climax of this book is so incredibly epic. I mean I don't think I can properly put into words what I was felling as I read it. Everything happened so fast and there were moments of fear, moments of excitement and everything was just so amazing. The cool down after the climax sort of shows where the next book is headed and the various journeys that we'll be on with these characters. While there wasn't really a cliffhanger, and it actually ended up being more plateaued I can't wait to continue this series.
If I was rating this just on the plot and world bulding and such and wasn't taking into account the romance this book would not only have gotten five stars but probably would have been my favorite so far. However I felt the romance was needlessly complicated and while things are sort of sorted out by the end it just felt off to me.

At 30, Virginia Pearson was a bit old to play a convent-bred girl in this murder mystery, something which critics duly noted. She's more credible a bit later on in the film as the proprietor of her dead father's gambling hall. Pauline Cheraud (Pearson) returns from the convent to discover that her father, Emil (Joseph Smiley), has gone broke and to keep the money flowing in has turned their home into a gambling establishment. Pauline begs him to stop and finally he agrees -- but the next day he is found dead in the library. Three men -- including Jimmie Dreen, the man Pauline loves (Victor Sutherland) -- become suspects because they all visited Cheraud the night before. In the belief that the killer always returns to the scene of the crime, Pauline keeps the gambling hall open and carefully watches all the suspects. It turns out that the murderer is an old family servant, so Pauline is able to close down the gambling hall and marry Dreen.

Easy Money Method Review Is Easy Money Method Software Scam Or Real? Read The Truth in My Easy Money Method Review Until Tthink To Download it
The Easy Money Method Software index (which is also called the study) is a tool used in the analysis of price movements. Indicators and fall within the two groups, namely: follow the trends and indicators oscillators. Follow the directions most useful indicators are considered when the price is moving in one direction, while the oscillators be useful when integrated in the price range. It is important to know which group you should use the index and choose the correct index for each position is located.
Some follow the common trends indicators include the following:
Average directional index (ADX)
Average directional index is a special type of practice trends index, which can also help the forex trader in determining whether the practice directions is actually the best tool for the job at that moment. We will work to follow the directions on the best indicators when the average directional index exceeds 30. But when at least 30, is the volatility index has become the best option.
When the average directional index rises, it indicates that the trend is gaining more power, but when it starts to fall it is a sign that the trend is losing strength and that may arise trading range soon. Similarly, when the average directional index starts to rise again, it indicates that the price exceeds the scope of a new trend that may arise. However, the average directional index only refers to the strength of the trend shows no track (up or down)
In the example below, notice how the average directional index down begins where the price is currently trading within the range near the left side of the chart. Then while taking in the price decline, the average directional index rises above 30 referring to that there is a trend is in progress. Average directional index confirms also that the trend has ended by the start of the landing again. When down in the end to less than 30, we find ourselves again deliberating in a narrow range.
The spacing and moving average convergence indicator (MACD)
Index measures the average spacing of mobile and convergence difference between moving average short-term and long-term. When the red line is above the blue line it indicates an upward trend, but when the red line falls below the blue line it indicates a down trend.
In addition, it gives us the green columns (called the Easy Money Method Review distribution frequency of the MACD indicator schemes) an indication of the strength or weakness trend. In contrast to the average directional index ADX, this indicator also shows the overall direction of the trend. Long columns indicate increasing strength, while short columns indicate decreasing strength.
In the following example, we see that the moving average indicator line spacing and convergence Red MACD falls below the blue line where the price begins to fall. Also it increases the length of the green lines in the histogram, which indicates that the bearish trend is gaining momentum. When the price back from one moment to another to begin to rise, the histogram reflects a loss of strength of the bearish trend. Continuing strength of the bearish trend, where the following appears red candle on the chart. However, it is important to mention that while the price what it was dropped, the histogram has not decreased this limit. This is known as a bullish divergence, and indicates that the trend will end soon and will be followed by a reversal.
Easy Money Method Review Linear regression or longitudinal
Linear regression is a special kind of the most responsive to price changes with less delay moving averages. When the price moves too far from the rebound longitudinal line (the red line in the chart below), sometimes can be done fast trading while the opposite direction of the price quickly due to "normal mode" - as the same linear regression line as a target for a profit works. http://thebinaryinsider.org/easy-money-method-review-is-easymoneymethod-co-software-scam

just over a year ago i started with a dull ache around the left side of my torso, after a few hours this became alot worse and I was rushed to A + E to have tests done. After a CT scan they found my left kidney and ureter had swelled up so they presumed there was some kind of blockage and I was in need of an operation. After spending the week in hospital waiting for the operation and several more CT scans and blood tests, I was told I no longer needed to be operated on and could return home. The doctor said that the pain was probably caused by stones and i have passed them. Im pretty sure i didnt pass any, im sure I would know if I did! After this I had a mild pain in my side and around my back that i wthought would just go away but it didnt. 6 months later i went to see a urologist who sent my for more CT scans, ultrasound and eventually i had a ureterscope. The doctor found a narrowing of my ureter and has said that I need to come back in and have a stent put in for 8 weeks. I am still waiting to hear back from the hospital with a date to come in.
I am not convinced that anyone really knows what the problem is as its been going on for over 12 months now and I get told a different thing everytime i go and see someone.
I am very fit and healthy, go to the gym 5 times a week, have a good diet, no problems urinating and have no other health problems but I have had enough of this constant pain! The pain is mainly around the middle of my back on the left side of my spine, just below my shoulder blade, but sometimes it spreads futher down my left side.
Has anyone experienced any of these symptoms or know what the problem could be?
I know the problems im having are nothing compared to what is faced by some people on here, but any help would be much appreciated.
Sorry for the essay post!!

WEST Perth's longest-serving coach Bill Monaghan talks about Saturday's win over Perth including the efforts of Rudy Riddoch, Jay van Berlo's 150th game and plenty more ahead of this Saturday's clash with East Fremantle at East Fremantle Oval.
QUESTION: What are your reactions to a pretty hard earned win over Perth?
ANSWER: It's a really hard one to judge, I'm fairly critical of what we did, but in the end we won. I talked to the players about respecting the opposition and making sure that they play the game to the full. Maybe I had different expectations, 15.19 isn't a bad day at the office in terms of getting the ball forward and shooting on goal, but we've got some work to do. Perth, I've watched them two or three times and they've played similar to that where they've stayed with opposition, but just get blown away in little patches. I thought it was ugly, it was frustrating, but at the end of the day we win by 19 points by kicking 15.19. We have to take the good with the bad.
Q: Did they score a little too easily out the back for your liking at times?
A: You're being way too kind by saying a little too easy. Since pressing and zones and all that's come into play, we've always been a side that suffers from sides getting out the back, because we do get up the ground quite aggressively. So that's not uncommon. What I try to explain to people who don't understand that mechanism, is that we can pick those players up and in the times that we were playing that type of defence i.e. one on one we're getting as many points scored against us as we are now. They kicked 14.6. I'd take 20 scoring shots against us every week. It was the ease of them though. Stack was very good; I think he probably kicked five from the goal line with no one on him. They have to get through it and use the ball well. Twenty scoring shots to 35 means we've had a significant victory.
Q: A pretty special performance by Rudy Riddoch?
A: We've been really patient in understanding where Rudy's been through the pre-season. Do I think that's the sort of performance that Rudy could give offensively? Yes, that's why we wanted to get him here. I think he's as talented as any other forward playing in the competition. Whether it's three games in, five games in, three and-a-half years in I don't care, really. He was good on the offensive side and he like all of us has got some work to do on the defensive side. We're rapt, we haven't recruited a lot over the off-season, generally we just back our own kids in but I would've thought that having Simpson and Riddoch over the past few weeks, they've been good choices for us and they're having a significant impact on the game.
Q: He never was able to play like that in a game for Swan Districts showing the ability to in patches. Why have you been able to get that out of him?
A: We need to keep it in perspective, he's played three games and he was okay in the first couple, and he was better this week. I think sometimes when you've got players in your own backyard you can find things that they do wrong. Probably focussing on that and controlling the negatives and I probably do that same thing with a lot of our players. What we see in Rudy as an opposition coach is all the positives he does. I think that part of the secret to coaching people like Rudy and this isn't a Bill Monaghan thing, is to keep believing and having faith. Rudy texted me during the week and said 'will I play senior footy this week?' and I nearly fell off my chair. Seriously Rudy you're two games in you've been okay, but that's probably symptomatic of what his mindset is as a Swan Districts player. This isn't a criticism of Greg or Swan Districts but that probably shows that he never was comfortable in his position and was always looking over his shoulder. We do the same, every coach does and every club does. So it's easy for us to look at the positives and Rudy just needs to continue to work hard.
Q: The mobile ruckmen whether it's Simpson, Keitel or Hamilton seems to be working well for you?
A: The trends across all major competitions are that the giant ruckman is probably in decline. I was told during the week and it probably doesn't surprise me because I've been a believer in this for while, but the two AFL clubs who are most in decline in clearances are Fremantle and North Melbourne. I think they've got the two best ruckmen in the AFL. Look it's working. Does that mean we can't play Sev? Does it mean when Chris is available in a few weeks' time we won't play him? No. The beauty is when things weren't going to plan Simpson went back and we had someone else play that role in the ruck. We've tried to spread the load and add versatility in all our positions. Manning starts back, ends up forward, plays through the midfield same with Meadows and we were trying to get Nelson who's had another 40 and was really good around the clearances to push forward to crumb a couple of goals. Other than Corey Chalmers I'm not sure we had anyone who was genuinely crumbing the ball. It's been something we focused strongly on, the rucks are part of that, it would be silly to think we're not doing that in a range of positions.
Q: Great to get the win in the 150th game of your captain?
A: We haven't been super with our milestones games. As a coach I get caught between pumping that right up, being great servants to the club and just go out and do what's normal. Guys like VB and most of the guys are the same, they're not about personal accolades that's why we love Jay van Berlo. He would've felt embarrassed, we had a guest speaker in and he spoke at the lunch beforehand, and there was a story that he'd been away all week. VB just likes to get out there and play. He gives the same effort every week and we're really proud that he's got to 150 games. I did ask the players for an effort but I didn't go over the top asking them for a special effort. He played his role, he's a pleasure to coach, he's an intelligent person and he's got a good work-life balance and football. He's a great role model for everyone at the West Perth footy club.
Q: I'm sure sentiment doesn't come into selection, but I'm sure Jay would have appreciated playing alongside his brother?
A: We often don't talk about that stuff. To be honest, not saying that Mitch Van Berlo didn't deserve to play, but it came down to Mitch and another player. We couldn't really separate them, so we thought it was best for Mitch to have that opportunity for Jay. Jay would've been proud of that. In Shane Nelson's situation a couple of weeks ago he was really buoyed by the fact that Scott was playing. We don't give games to anyone who doesn't deserve them, but I can tell you this week it was line ball and we probably did go a little bit sentimental, because we think that's really good for the fabric of the footy club. We're blessed here that there's six groups of brothers across the grades. We're a club who like to promote our own and we really value those connections so it was good to see that Mitch was out there today with Jay.
Q: You must continue to be happy with the response to win the last three games since that big loss to South Fremantle?
A: That's a difficult question because that's not as a coach how I view it. It's not how bad we are how lucky we are. We were poor against South, I'm probably a little bit miffed as to why people say we've been inconsistent this year. We had a horrible game against South Fremantle, we beat East Perth relatively comfortably in Round 1, took it right up to Subi whose form is outstanding, were woeful against South, we beat Peel and Swans who are both going okay. Yet people are saying we're inconsistent. We were really concerned about the effort we put in against South Fremantle on a number of issues. We think we've rectified them to a little bit in the last few weeks. I just don't look at it the way people in the media or people from outside the inner sanctum do. There's a lot of planning and effort put in that coaches and players do and we see it way different to what might be written in the press.
Q: Confident of continuing the momentum against East Fremantle?
A: We just know that it doesn't matter who we play. Perth were 1-4 going into this game and it took a fairly decent effort in the end to shake them off or to hold them off. I think Earl could be sitting in his change rooms thinking we took it up to them and we could've easily snatched the game. We don't disrespect anyone whether we're playing the top side or someone who may be struggling for a win. We know East Fremantle has got a lot of talent, we're also fairly confident in the knowledge that if we play our best that we are going to be competitive. Does that mean we win every game? No. Does it mean we're in every game? Take the South game out which is not something that's normal generally speaking we're in most games we play.

Retrogaming is a lifestyle for some us, which is why outlets like the Virtual Console, PSN and Steam come in so handy. But 20 or so years from now, when we are all plugged into our own personal holodecks (and after testing out the Megan Fox app), what games from our current generation are you going to want to download to your mindchip? There have been quite a few stellar entries, I think we can all agree.
Personally, Uncharted and Mass Effect get my votes as two of the finest franchises of all time, let alone this gen. And those only have 2 entries so far! Imagine when we are on Mass Effect 7: Shepard's Pie Party and Uncharted 10: What's Left to Chart? In case you want some other choices, GamesRadar compiled a Top 7 list of Best New Franchises of the Current Generation and there might be one or two on there that would surprise you. I think we are in a nice era of gaming and this list reflects that.
So, having seen my choices and the list, what franchises from this gen do you like the most? Which ones do you think have the most potential longevity? Are there any new franchises that you consider epic fails? Go!
