Housing Sign-Ups is Fast Approaching!
During the Spring 2019 Semester continuing/returning residential students will have the ability to participate in a process known as Housing Sign-Ups in which they select their room for the Fall 2019/Spring 2020 Academic Year. The Housing Sign-Ups Process is divided into multiple Room Selection Phases. Some of these phases are online and some of them require your student to go to the Housing and Residence Education Office located in the Tucker Student Center. Information outlining the Housing Sign-Ups Process has been provided to your students over the past several weeks. Additionally, a pamphlet detailing the Housing Sign-Ups Process will be delivered to each residence hall room/apartment/suite in the near future by Housing Staff.
It is our goal to make the Housing Sign-Ups Process as easy to navigate as possible. However, it is important to realize that the Housing Sign-Ups Process is very date-specific. Furthermore, it is necessary for your student to have a completed housing application for the 2019/2020 Academic Year, along with submitting a $150.00 deposit to be able to participate in any room selection phase of the Housing Sign-Ups Process. In our communication to students we have recommended that they submit their housing application and deposit before the Housing Sign-Ups Process is scheduled to begin. Housing Sign-Ups is scheduled to begin on Monday, February 18, 2019 at approximately 8:00am Eastern Standard Time.
Below is a link that will take you to a webpage on the Housing and Residence Education site that has three video tutorials that can help you and your student in learning how to navigate the Housing Sign-Ups Process. One video details how to complete a housing application. One video details our Room Reclaim Room Selection Phase of Housing Sign-Ups. The third video details how to navigate our Hall-to-Hall, Suite-to-Suite, Apartment-to-Apartment, and Open Room Selection Phases of our Housing Sign-Ups Process.
Learn More about the Housing Sign-up Process
We are excited to assist your student in selecting a room, suite, or an apartment for the upcoming academic year at Gardner-Webb University.

Director of Housing and Residence Education

Hirsch organizes for digital identity growth
05 November, 2009
category: Corporate, Digital ID
Security systems manufacturer Hirsch Electronics has named Rob Zivney to the newly created position of vice president, business development, to enable the Santa Ana, Calif. company to expand its resources in the digital identity market arena.
Zivney serves on the Security Industry Association board of directors, chairs SIA's Personal Identity Verification Working Group and serves on standards committees for both SIA and the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers. He has testified before the U.S. Congress on behalf of the security industry regarding implementation of the PIV card mandated by HSPD-12.
Early this year, Hirsch Electronics merged with smart card reader manufacturer SCM Microsystems. Recently, the combined company announced an agreement to acquire Bluehill ID AG, which consists of a leading group of identification technology offerings and services. Zivney, while vice president of marketing for Hirsch, has pioneered Hirsch's initiatives in identity, credential and access management using smart cards in vertical markets, especially the federal government sector. Zivney's new duties will be to increase the company's position as a global systems provider of smart card-based identity solutions for access control.
"The next generation of physical, logical and network access control security requires the use of trusted digital identities," said Larry Midland, executive vice president of SCM Microsystems and Hirsch president. "Through the combined use of smart cards, PIN codes, biometrics and certificates, trust can be increased, leading to enhanced security of personnel, facilities and digital information. Therefore, we need to focus our management team on the opportunities for convergence that cross technological, organizational and traditional boundaries."

Dancing Selfie Stick
If the Dancing Cane married an iPhone, they'd probably spawn a Dancing Selfie Stick! But inventor Doug Bennett created it first. Check out the video. This is a great opener for stage or platform. It has all the animation of the Dancing Cane, but you perform it with a contemporary device that everyone recognizes. Putting the Dancing Selfie Stick into your stage act will really capture the attention of an audience. Why? Because the public continues to be obsessed with social media, posting photos and everything associated with them. That's why starting your show by saying, "Hey, you're such a great audience, I'm going to take a selfie of me with all of you and post it right now," immediately connects you to them.
But then your music starts, the stick animates and your audience starts to think, "Wait a minute! My selfie stick can't do that!
Each device has been hand assembled, balanced and tested by Doug Bennett, a former consultant for David Copperfield who is a script writer and magic inventor in the Los Angeles area. This is an amazing mini-illusion that packs small, plays big and is so realistic looking, that you won't even have to mention it.
Here's what you get:
If you're a stage performer who is all about connecting with today's audiences, then get a prop that reflects their values. If you're familiar with the manipulation moves for the Dancing Cane, this won't be hard to learn at all. Get a prop that your audience will "get" the moment you walk on stage carrying it. Get Doug Bennett's Dancing Selfie Stick.
Have a question about this product? It's possible others do too. Ask here and other AmazeKids customers will be able to respond with assistance! Alternatively, email us and we can help too.
Jeff asks: If you are not familiar with the movements of the dancing can, are they taught or would I just be purchasing the prop?

Iran plans joint military exercises with Russia and China amid U.S tensions
Deputy Chief of Iranian Armed Forces for International Affairs Qadeer Nizami said, that Iran plans to conduct joint naval exercises with Russia and China, reports Fars news agency.
According to Nizami, the exercises will be held in international waters of the Northern Indian Ocean and the Gulf of Oman. These will be the first trilateral exercises of Iran, Russia and China, said Nizami. He did not specify the scheduled date for military drills.
Nizami made this statement a day after the US announced the deployment of troops to the Middle East in response to the drone attack on Saudi Arabian oil fields.
The number of US troops that will be sent to the Middle East, will not involve "thousands," said Chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff General Joseph Dunford. According to the US Secretary of Defense Mark Esper, the US military will focus on air and missile defense.
On September 14, a drone attack caused significant damage to an oil refinery and oil field in Saudi Arabia, significantly reducing the country's oil export volumes. Yemenite Houthis have claimed responsibility for the attack, but the US and the Arab Coalition which supports the Yemenite government believe that Iran was behind it.
The Houthis have previously used drones to attack Saudi oil facilities, but without causing such serious problems.

Yano, 1911
Within its range it is the lone Polyergus species. Polyergus samurai is better known from studies of Japanese populations and is relatively poorly studied where it occurs in mainland Asia.

There was only minor variation among individuals detected among the specimens studied. Wheeler (1927) noted that the Chinese population he described as the subspecies mandarin was possibly blacker than the Japanese population. However, a small sample of workers from Beijing I obtained during this study had coloring indistinguishable from Japanese samples, and photographs sent to me of worker and male specimens from Hebei look typical, including the starkly white appendages of the male.
Polyergus samurai is probably not sympatric with any other species. It is easily distinguished from most other Polyergus species by its dark brown color, appearing nearly black in the field. It is closest to Polyergus nigerrimus, a smaller, darker, shinier species that lives in arid regions to the west of the range of samurai. Polyergus samurai males are notable for their striking white wings (even the veins are very pale yellow), and whitish appendages, including the mouthparts. Gynes also have white wings, with pale brown veins, and partially light brown appendages. This is in contrast to the dark brown appendages, brownish veins and infuscation of the wings of both sexes of nigerrimus.

Check data from AntWeb
The hosts of samurai in Japan are Formica japonica and rarely, Formica hayashi and even Formica fukaii (of the F. exsecta group), while the types of "subspecies mandarin" were collected with the F. rufibarbis-group species Formica glabridorsis. Polyergus samurai is relatively well studied by several Japanese myrmecologists, but is only poorly known in its mainland Asian range. Terayama, et al. (1993) described four ergatoids found in two colonies of samurai, reporting they had "a well developed spermatheca", and surmised that they can produce female offspring (though they did not confirm insemination). Hasegawa and Yamaguchi (1994, 1995) reported for this species (and typically for the genus) that raids mostly occurred on warm, sunny days, and mating flights only occurred on sunny days. According to these authors, time of initiation of raids and walking speed of raiders are related to simple environmental variables, especially temperature. Tsuneoka (2008) reported that colonies had a single gyne, housed colony populations of the host Formica japonica much larger than normal host colonies, and that the larger colony size in the parasite colony resulted in typical nest structure, but larger nest dimensions than those of unparasitized F. japonica.
List of Known Hosts
This species is known to enslave the following species:
- Formica fukaii (rare)
- Formica glabridorsis
- Formica hayashi (rare)
- Formica japonica

Clad in what could best be described as an immaculate, Air Force-blue suit, Dr. Brandon Isaacs seemed to — at least momentarily — stare intently and directly into the eyes of each and every one of the colleagues who had assembled around him for his farewell celebration. A few feet away, a cake adorned with the red-frosted-words "Best Wishes, Dr. Isaacs" served as a commemorative offering to the man who's remaining time as Pacific Northwest University's Associate Dean of Postdoctoral Education wasn't much longer than the shelf life of the cake itself.
"I came here because of the mission," said Dr. Isaacs. "I've always had this vision of finding a way to meet the needs of not only the people in the place where I grew up, but in small towns where rural health care… how do I say it?" His jaw clenched as he searched for the words to accurately describe the communities he was, and is, so committed to assisting. "There are still small towns out there where rural health care sucks. It sucks bad."
Growing up in a small rural town with a population of less than 1,000, Dr. Isaacs' unmistakable passion stems directly from the healthcare experiences that helped to shape not only his life, but the life of everyone around him. When he was a child, the lone doctor in his community committed suicide. That loss brought uncertainty to just about every facet of his life.
"I didn't get immunizations when I was a kid," he explained. "I got the disease. I had mumps. I had measles. I had chicken pox. I think about my little brother, who had to go to school with a cotton ball stuffed in his ear that was covered in Vics, so people couldn't smell the drainage from his ear infection. To this day he has no eardrum on that side, because we had nobody to take care of us when we were kids."
Offered a rare glimpse into a stoic man of few words, Dr. Isaacs' PNWU co-workers listened intently as he verbally animated the importance of the work they were all hired to do. In what would be one of his final opportunities to address those who would continue that work, however, the rapidly approaching end was not bitter but, instead — like the icing on the cake that rested beside him — sweet.
In transitioning away from his role as PNWU's Associate Dean for Postdoctoral Education, Dr. Isaacs will take on the challenge of serving as the Continuing Program Director for the nearby Central Washington Family Medicine Residency. In his new role, his passion for bringing quality healthcare to rural and underserved communities will only evolve, with more opportunities to shape the next generation of mission-driven osteopathic physicians.
"What we do in this profession is just now scratching the surface of what we can do," said Dr. Isaacs, looking out for a final time at his PNWU colleagues. "I'm very proud of what I've done, and of what I stand for, and I hope to continue that work."

Zendancer, really? I thought her site was a bit of mess, navigationally speaking, and when I met with her a few weeks ago and offered my help with hosting and database stuff for her site, it sounded like she thought so too and really could use some help. But that's good feedback there. I will take another look and try to figure out what might make it appear easier.

Today's universally taught "one size fits all" stance is addictively easy to teach and makes total sense on the surface. However, this stance destroys coronal plane balance once the motion starts and your body abandons your consciously planned intentions as it always seeks balance first. It also stalls out the lower body much too early and disrupts the instinctive kinetic chain. Your body and brain are never on the same page from the start and this "static" is the source of inaccurate performance, tension, and self doubt.
"The proper stance and posture enable a golfer to be perfectly balanced and poised throughout the swing."
-Ben Hogan
Once the motion starts your body is either either chasing balance and spine safety with non-conscious postural adjustments OR your body feels balanced and safe enough to focus on precision and finesse. The cerebellum uses a 100% pass fail system as it regulates body motion for complete balance and spine safety so there is no gray area of "almost right". Non-conscious postural adjustments for balance and spine safety are made during the swing, and they are the source of mediocre accuracy that leads to tension and self doubt.
Your personal rhythm has been ingrained instinctively as your body has learned "what hurts and what works" from birth to present on planet earth, and your game is stuck in neutral without it. Positional teaching methods and puppeteering the perceived perfect swing has robbed you of your personal rhythm....fact.
"Rhythm makes postural adjustments for maintaining balance during the motion much easier and more stable."
- Geoff Mangum
My swing balances me! - Moe Norman
Is your club another bone in your body or are you only grasping a tool? Are you in complete control of the club without the tension in the forearms that chokes off power and dulls the feedback from the hands? Are there built in "pre-sets" in your grip that non consciously produce an extended hitting zone (flat spot) through impact? What if there is a much deeper understanding of the grip that can provide a major breakthrough in power and accuracy?
-Ben Hogan
Basics.... True, there is not one swing for everybody. But there is one and only one unique swing for each individual. It is the swing that cooperates with the non-conscious instincts that keep us safe. A deeper understanding of "what works and why" in cooperation with theses instincts in regards to grip, stance, posture and rhythm is the true path to the game improvement you seek.
Mechanics of Instinct
The modern posture picks a fight with the body's instinctive will to be well. The flat back, iron byron spine angle may be great for a robot but it puts the body in a vulnerable position of stress instead of the relaxed athleticism demonstrated by the all time greats.
"Good posture can be successfully acquired only when the entire mechanism of the body is under perfect control"
-Joseph Pilates
"Machinelike precision and reliability follows instinctive balance, rhythm, and spine safety".
-Frank McChrystal

Veterans Get Tested for HIV and Hepatitis After Colonoscopy
Earlier this week, it was announced that veterans in South Florida may have been exposed to hepatitis and HIV due to the improper cleaning of equipment used for colonoscopy. The Miami VA has now assigned additional personnel to the Special Care Call Center for Veterans. The personnel will help make appointments and answer questions.
The time frame in question for the exposure appears to apply to patients who had colonoscopies performed between May 2004 and March 12, 2009. Letters were sent to 3,260 patients on Monday March 23, 2009 who may have been exposed. The Miami VA says there is no increased risk to patients who had this procedure outside of these dates.
Information for veterans:
Call the Special Care Call Center at (305) 575-7256 or 1-877-575-7256, 7 days a week, 24 hours-a-day.
Miami VA Medical Center Special Care Clinic is open Monday through Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturday, 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. The Special Care Clinics at the Broward County VA Clinic, the Homestead VA Clinic and the Key West VA Clinic will be open Monday through Friday 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. The Miami VA will arrange for Veterans located outside of South Florida to receive service at a VA facility closest to them.
The risk of cross-contamination is reported to be low in healthy individuals, in the range of 1 in 1.8 million. The real problem is with patients who may be immune-suppressed, such as patients receiving chemotherapy. There risk is higher, but not known by how much higher.
This is not the first incident in which veterans may have been exposed to infection during colonoscopies. Last month, the Department of Veterans Affairs alerted about 6,400 patients in Tennessee that they might have been exposed to infectious body fluids during colonoscopies from 2003 to 2008. Another 1,100 veterans treated in Augusta, Ga., received a similar notification.

Arsenal, with a scoreline that they have made their own, cut Chelsea's lead back to five points on a night when the Premiership champions had to contend with a patched-up Newcastle United side that rediscovered a measure of black and white pride.
Patrick Vieira has had his performance level questioned of late but it was his strike in the dying seconds of the first half that flew past a startled Shay Given. Vieira's third goal of the season gave Arsenal their third consecutive victory.
Arsenal had to do without Dennis Bergkamp due to a strained thigh. The Dutchman usually enjoys his visits here, though any succour Newcastle derived from Bergkamp's absence was undermined by the prospect of their notoriously fragile defence having to deal with Bergkamp's compatriot Robin van Persie alongside Thierry Henry.
The sight of Van Persie surging past Aaron Hughes in the fourth minute to knock an Ashley Cole pass into the face of Shay Given caused Newcastle early palpitations.
Newcastle had, after all, come into the game with a record of no victory in their last five league games - or two wins in the last 12, if you like.
This is the sort of form that chairman Freddy Shepherd would surely describe as "unacceptable", Shepherd's word for Newcastle's form this time last year, when his club were seventh.
They began last night 14th and with such a glut of injuries that the fourth-choice striker Shola Ameobi led the line and three youngsters were on the bench - Peter Ramage, Martin Brittain and Charles N'Zogbia.
Souness fielded Ameobi centrally with Craig Bellamy and Laurent Robert supporting from the flanks and Ameobi began brightly, bustling Sol Campbell into a ninth-minute error. Ameobi then slashed a left-foot shot wide.
Ameobi tried to maintain that physical presence whenever he could - whenever Newcastle got out of their own half - but mostly he was a bystander as Newcastle ceded ground from the earliest moments.
Arsenal were invited forth. This is a dangerous tactic, especially as Newcastle on average have been letting in two goals a game this season.
But after Ameobi had headed a Campbell header off the Newcastle goalline on 15 minutes Given had only a couple of speculative shots from Van Persie to deal with - until Vieira's dramatic intervention of course.
Newcastle had a few bothersome moments regardless yet when Jermaine Jenas pinged a 30-yard pass towards Bellamy six minutes before half-time, the ball clearly struck the raised arm of Cole.
Had the referee Steve Bennett awarded a penalty Arsenal could not have complained but he waved play. Newcastle were angry yet at the same time probably feeling satisfied that they had held out until the interval.
The Tannoy had announced one minute of added time and Newcastle had a routine throw-in on the left. But Arsenal won possession and after Vieira saw a beneficial rebound off Steven Taylor the Arsenal captain decided to try his luck from 25 yards.
This was an inspired choice as Vieira's fast, looping effort sped over and past the surprised Given. For extra pain the ball deflected off Jenas on the way.
Any Souness team-talk based on parity had to be scotched because of this rupture. Regular Newcastle observers know that the second half has not been a strength of late and now they had to chase the champions.
Newcastle, moreover, had spent a lot of energy in the first half. Any home opportunity that was to be fashioned had to be taken. Consequently there were groans when Lee Bowyer squandered a 15-yard shot eight minutes after half time following diligent work by Bellamy.
Bellamy's willingness to turn an aimless high ball into useful possession summed up the Newcastle attitude. Not only was Ameobi having his best night for months, behind him Kieron Dyer was relentless in his running forward and tracking back. He was even applauded by Newcastle fans.
Arsenal, meanwhile, looked content to sit on their lead and wait for a decisive breakaway. As long as Newcastle continued to push, this was a risky approach and Van Persie and Lauren had to resort to bad fouls, for which each was booked.

In our China Update of October 2011, we reported that China officially allowed foreign investors holding RMB deposits outside of China to use those offshore RMB funds for foreign direct investments ("FDIs") in China. We also reported that the People's Bank of China ("PBOC") issued an announcement regarding the settlement of the offshore RMB funds transferred by foreign investors into China for FDI purpose. On 14 June 2012 PBOC issued a circular (the "Circular"), providing banks with more detailed guidelines on dealing with the settlement of offshore RMB funds. The most important clarifications the Circular provides are highlighted below.
- A foreign investor or a Chinese company invested in by a foreign investor ("a foreign-invested company") may only open one RMB account for one specific special purpose. For example, a foreign investor may only open one RMB account for paying up-front costs before the establishment of a foreign-invested company.
- A foreign-invested company may take an RMB loan from abroad only if the full amount of its registered share capital has been duly contributed. A real estate company is not allowed to take an RMB loan from abroad at all.
- The maximum amount of RMB loans that a foreign-invested company may receive from abroad is the balance between the company's registered share capital and the government-approved total amount of investments to be made by the company.
- A foreign-invested company should use the RMB funds contributed by its foreign shareholders or borrowed from abroad within its approved business scope. It may not use the RMB funds for investments in negotiable securities and financial derivatives, entrusted loans, purchase of financing products and non-self-used real estate. A foreign-invested company is allowed to use such RMB funds to repay domestic or foreign debts.
- Foreign-invested companies, except for special holding companies approved by the competent authorities, are not allowed to use the RMB funds they obtained overseas for equity investment in China.
The content of this article is intended to provide a general guide to the subject matter. Specialist advice should be sought about your specific circumstances.

In today's FREE Crypto Training Caleb Wright is going to teach you How To Mine Pi cryptocurrency completely passively with your mobile phone! This is a Stanford sponsored cryptocurrency project that has already recently accumulated over ONE MILLION registered 'app users' since it's inception earlier in 2019 on Pi day [3.14.19… CLEVER!].
You still have a great opportunity to be able to accumulate this currency for FREE by mining it with your mobile phone. And it's so easy your grandma is probably already doing it. Read on and watch my video to learn how you can get started with it today…
Pi is an interesting cryptocurrency project being led by Stanford PHD's. This currency platform uses the Byzantine Federated Protocol, which is the same as the popular cryptocurrency Stellar which is partnered with IBM. They have plans to create an 'in-app' ecosystem where Pi coins can be used for buying and selling. The coin is supposed to launch to exchanges for trading in 2020.
Even though the project has already garnered 1 million users and the 'mining reward' rate has already been cut in half by the first 'mining halving', there is still plenty of opportunity left for you to earn a significant amount of this cryptocurrency passively with your mobile phone.
It would be advised to get after this as soon as possible however, as time is of the essence. Which is a funny thing to say, because the 'mining halving' events for Pi are actually not time or block height based like other popular cryptocurrencies [see Bitcoin].
Instead the mining halvings are set to occur at specific levels of user adoption. Hence the first level of adoption being one million users, which triggered the first 'halving' of mining rewards [the amount of Pi coins you can earn passively on a daily basis with your mobile phone…
This is one of those things where you have NOTHING TO LOSE and EVERYTHING TO GAIN by getting involved with this 'FREE TO EARN' cryptocurrency. But don't just take my written word for it…

Additional Informational Resources:
- Click here to read an informative medium article about the project [from June 1st, 2019]
- You do not need to leave the app open to mine. Pi does not affect your phone's performance, drain your battery, or use your network data . Once you hit the lightning button, you can even close the app and you will continue to mine Pi.
- So how can you mine a cryptocurrency without draining your battery or data?:
- Instead of burning energy as proof of work cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin do, Pi secures its ledger when members vouch for each other as trustworthy. This forms a network of interlocking "security circles" that determines who can execute transactions. This novel approach allows crypto mining on your phone by leveraging your existing social connections, with no financial cost, no battery drain and a light footprint on the planet. Read the technical section in 'White Paper' available on the app.

Congrats in first place ! We have a Champion my title chances went sideways in first race in Barca , with ending on 30th positionCongrats on the win @Lorda171! I was spectating the interesting battle between you and @Erzkbl9 for most of the race. Had no chance to fight you guys in Audi/Mercedes with my Porsche - so I decided to just stay safe and secure the P3 (P2 in the end) which was more than I needed (P4) to keep the gap of 100 points.
So I made an interesting observation today. When entering the pits, I had my limiter shut off and so I technically was speeding briefly, before I slammed on the brakes and dropped speed. However, the game did the penalize me, for I think it looks at the average speed throughout the whole pit lane. It is unfortunate that your screen froze, but if it happens again in the future, trying slowing down in the pits and seeing if it avoids the penalty.This season keeps getting worse and worse for me.
After going down the pit entry, I got a massive freeze which ended with me being in the pits in full speed, resulting in a SG30 penalty. Being obliged to serve it immediately, I went from fighting for P7 to as low as P24 or P23, not sure. But I worked my arms off trying to regain as much time as possible which resulted in a P18 I'm okay to take.
But this result is just another one in my string of poor performances through the second half of this season. It's a shame because I felt like a good challenger for the championship in the first half, and now it's all made of bad results and shenanigans of Assetto Corsa.
Still, great fights all over the track! I loved battling all of you.
No worries at all man. I was having the rubber-band effect on the straights for the whole race@OJ Racing I'm sorry I really messed with you too late that you wanted to overtake because it was a shame that you lost so many positions afterwards.
Damit, I pitted early.. 25 mins or I think 39L left into the race because I thought it was my connect when I was behind you. You were warping a lot for me and was worried I would take the train of us out lol. I've never seen your connection have an issue before.No worries at all man. I was having the rubber-band effect on the straights for the whole race
Congrats on the team championship to u and your team mate.shame ther isnt an accolade/title that u get for a team trophy.we v won two before but no accoladeIdk if any of you care but I just want to point out @HaiCo and me have won the Team Championship with a race to spare. It was a big deal for us cause it was the only goal we set for the season, and of course HaiCo had a stellar season, but mine was bumpy so to come away with this little thing makes me feel good. Great job again all, and I look forward to racing next week. Gonna be a wet one LOL!
Honestly, there were a few things that triggered my pace. First, I only got ACC right before the season, so even though I am semi-seasoned with "sim" racing via F1, I had no real practice with GT3's or any good simulators. Took some time to get a good grip of the car and smooth out errors.Congrats @HaiCo on winning the championship!
Congrats again and to @Fizzymon on the team championship. In answer to your question no I don't care about it at all, because we didn't win it!!! Joke, I hope we secure at least 2nd place.
You found some great pace in the last 2 races @Fizzymon so if you feel like sharing your secret let me know!
Other than that very clean race yesterday, I was expecting carnage at Eau Rouge on lap 1but it was all clean.

The Legacy Collection Target Exclusive Geonosis Arena
Item No.: Asst. 91751 No. 91753
Manufacturer: Hasbro
Number: #1 of 6
Includes: Pistols, helmet, backpack, companion Jedi
Action Feature: n/a
Retail: $12.99
Availability: October 2009
Appearances: Attack of the Clones
Bio: The Jedi Knights rush to Geonosis to rescue Obi-Wan, Anakin, and Padmé from execution. The Jedi brandish their lightsabers against the Geonosian warriors and the massive army of battle droids, super battle droids, and droidekas. All hope seems lost that any Jedi will survive this battle, then Yoda arrives with an army of clone troopers. Although many Jedi are lost that day, others survive this climactic battle that ushers in the Clone Wars. (Taken from the figure's packaging.)
Image: Adam Pawlus' Arena playset.
Commentary: The best Jango Fett mold so far is seeing plenty of use since its 2008 debut, although fans have commented that the coloring seems a little off. For some reason, Hasbro made this release even more purple, which may (or may not) be truly more authentic. Because of the unique coloring this figure falls under that "just different enough to make you mad" category which will probably appeal to variation hunters. Unfortunately the helmet wasn't tweaked to be more authentic to the film, but hey, it's an exclusive-- these things typically aren't perfect. WIth 14 points of articulation, it's basically the Evolutions figure from 2008 minus the head communicator accessory. File this one under "good enough," but odds are you can get a deal on him in any of several gift sets if you aren't too picky as to the coloring or the companion figures.
Collector's Notes: This line had a slow roll-out and was eventually marked down to about $7 per pack. At press time it largely is still not on clearance, but rather, that obscenely low $6.99. I would suggest you go out and buy this one simply to get the rockin' Coleman Trebor figure packed with Jango.

Genesis 12:1-4a; John 3.1-7
+ I know this doesn't come as a surprise to anyone here this morning, but…I love to talk. I love to just gab about anything for hours on end. So, of course, whenever anyone asks me to speak at any kind of gathering, I do it.
This past week I spoke at one such gathering for a dear friend and former parishioner from the Cathedral. She asked me to speak to a group of people who gather on a monthly basis to talk about different issues. I read some poems for them, which they enjoyed, but they were endlessly fascinated with the fact that I was a priest, for some reason. Most of the questions were about what is it like priest, what do I do in a day,
At some point in our conversation, we had a conversations about the difference between priests and Presbyterian pastors for some reason. And in the course of that discussion, I mentioned that, well, we're all ministers.
There was a shocked hush that came across the room. They were somewhat struck by that.
So, I repeated it and said, "we're all ministers."
They just didn't get it.
I don't think I need to worry about such a reaction this morning. Most of us know that, for us, we are all ministers. We are all doing ministry together here. I am just the priest doing ministry in my own way. And each of you are doing ministry in your own ways as well.
I should be clearer about that. Our ministry together is not just in what we do. It is in who we are. Our ministry is often a ministry of who we are. Of our personalities. Of the person that God has created, even in our very brokenness. It's all bound up very tightly together.
And if each of us listens, if each of strains our spiritual ears and hearts toward God, we can hear that calling, deep in our hearts. We can find that God is calling us to the ministry of our day-to-day lives, the ministry of the person God has formed us to be, the ministry to serve others in the way God sees fit.
In our reading from the Hebrew Bible this morning, we find a clear call from God to Abram.
"Go from your country and your kindred and your father's house to a land that I will show you."
Essentially this is the call to all of us who are in ministry. God calls to us wherever we may be and when that happens, we must heed it. We must step out from our comfortable places, and we must step out into our service to others even if that means going to those people in strange and alien places. And sometimes when we step into those uncomfortable places, we are made all the more aware of our own brokenness—we become even more vulnerable.
But that's just a simple fact in ministry: when God calls, God calls heedless of our brokenness. In fact, God calls us knowing full well our brokenness. And—and I hope this isn't news to anyone here this morning—God uses our brokenness. God can truly work through our brokenness and use our fractured selves in reaching out to other fractured people.
For too many people our brokenness divides us. It separates us. It isolates us. It prevents us from moving forward in our lives and ministries. And when it does, our brokenness becomes a kind of condemnation. It becomes the open wound we must carry with us—allowed by us to stink and fester.
But when we can use our brokenness to reach out in love, when we allow God to use our brokenness, it is no longer a curse and a condemnation. Our brokenness becomes a fruitful means for ministry. It becomes a means for renewal and rebirth. It becomes the basis for ministry—for reaching out and helping those who are broken and in need around us.
In our Gospel reading for today we get that all-too-familiar bit of scripture.
"For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone ho believes in him may not perish but have eternal life."
We have heard that scripture so often in our lives, we almost don't realize what it's really saying. It is saying to us that God truly does love us. And that those of who are heeding our call—who following after Jesus, who are loving Jesus and loving the Jesus we find in others—we will be made whole one day. We will be given eternal life
Each of us is called. Each of us has been issued a call from God to serve. It might not have been a dramatic calling—an overwhelming sense of the Presence of God in our lives that motivates us to go and follow Jesus.
But each Sunday we receive the invitation. Each time we gather at this altar to celebrate the Eucharist, we are, essentially, called to then go out, refreshed and renewed in our broken selves by this broken Body of Jesus, to serve the broken people of God. We are called to go out and minister, not only by preaching and proclaiming with words, but by who we are, by our very lives and examples.
So, let us heed the call of God. Let us do as Abram did in our reading from Genesis did today.
"Abram went, as the Lord told him…"
Let us, as well, go as God has told us. Let us go knowing full well that heeding God's call and doing what God calls us to do may mean leaving our country and our kindred and our house—in essence, everything we find comfortable and safe—and going to a foreign place—a place that may be frightening. And going will be doubly frightening when we know we go as imperfect human beings—as people broken and vulnerable.
But let us also go, sure in our calling from God. Let us go sure that God has blessed each of us, even in our brokenness. Let us go knowing that God loves us, because we too love. Let us go knowing that God will use the cracks and fractures within us, as always, for good. And let us go knowing God will make us whole again in our eternal life.
God will make us a blessing to others and God will "bless those who bless us." What more can we possibly ask of the ministry God has called us to carry out?

No more lvl13 amps event
Stream is live: https://www.twitch.tv/ClockWorkOrangeEU
I wont quit mining, but I want to stop mining with Level 13 amps. So I thought, well lets go out with a bang.
This is not a humble brag event or something, I just like to do something for the community, and equal chances for everyone.
30 Lvl13 amps (L), p160 finder (L) (probably on FOMA).
20 ped (amp) + 16 ped (finder) so 36 ped total per drop.
(30 amps x 17 uses) 510 drops and 510 x 36 = 18360 tt in total drops.
Whats in it for you?
-2% of the return of this run, goes to the player that guesses my return the closest.
-1% of the return of this run, that comes second closest.
If my return = 10k, closest will get 200 (2%) and second one 100 (1%).
If my return = 50k, closest will get 1000 (2%) and second one 500 (1%).
Gambling Option
Furthermore, and here comes the gambling option, if I get 2x times my tt back (36000+).
(And only if that happends) Than I'll give my p160 (L) away to the player that guesses my lowest hit the closest.
(according to wiki this p160 has 1386 drops, so tt will be around 63% after this run)
To make it a bit more interesting, you can only guess one number. So either you go for let's say 15001 return, but the chance that 15001 return will also be my lowest hit isnt very big. Or you could go for something like 150,44, which is way more likely to be my lowest hit, but returnwise thats not very likely. You get the point here
I removed the part that was here, from now on just reply if you want to guess
I'll do this run friday 14th, in the morning and I will stream it (https://www.twitch.tv/stygmm/).
Feel free to ask questions or suggestions etc
Good luck!
