Mariners satisfied with balanced Draft approach
The Mariners didn't go the way of some of their Major League counterparts and make splashy, late-round selections that were sure to generate publicity on Day 3 of the MLB First-Year Player Draft. You probably won't see Heisman Trophy winner Johnny Manziel, the Padres' 28th round selection, donning a Mariners hat any time soon.
No, Saturday consisted of Seattle taking 30 players -- a majority from the East Coast -- in rounds 11-40.
The Mariners didn't go the way of some of their Major League counterparts and make splashy, late-round selections that were sure to generate publicity on Day 3 of the MLB First-Year Player Draft. You probably won't see Heisman Trophy winner Johnny Manziel, the Padres' 28th round selection, donning a Mariners hat any time soon.
No, Saturday consisted of Seattle taking 30 players -- a majority from the East Coast -- in rounds 11-40.
With third baseman Kyle Seager (University of North Carolina), left fielder Dustin Ackley (University of North Carolina), first baseman Justin Smoak (University of South Carolina) catcher Mike Zunino (University of Florida), shortstop Brad Miller (Clemson) and center fielder James Jones (Long Island University) already on the Mariners' roster, it's easy to see amateur scouting director Tom McNamara's connections on the other side of the country.
From 1994 to 2000, McNamara was the Mariners' area scout in the Northeast, helping the club sign former players such as pitcher Brian Sweeney. He is a Pearl River, N.Y., native. He attended Dominican College in New York and coached at Rockland Community College in Suffern, N.Y., after his playing career was finished.
McNamara's roots were evident again Saturday, as the Mariners tapped into the northeast and southeast parts of the United States on the final day of the draft.
The Mariners began in the 11th round by selecting right-handed pitcher Jay Muhammad out of Coral Springs Christian Academy in Florida and ended it with 40th-round selection Scott Manea, a catcher out of St. John's High School in Shrewsbury, Mass. By an unofficial count, 20 of the 30 selections on Day 3 of the Draft last played on a high school or college team on the east side of the country.
"We go where the players are," McNamara said.
In total, the Mariners drafted 21 pitchers (12 righties, nine lefties), nine infielders, five catchers and five outfielders. They took players from 17 different states. It was the sort of balanced approach that reflected McNamara's philosophy of taking the best player available rather than drafting because of needs at the big league level.
The club's first two picks came from the prep ranks, but with promise they could advance quickly through Seattle's farm system.
McNamara was excited -- perhaps even surprised -- that first-round selection Alex Jackson, a standout catcher/outfielder from San Diego was available when the sixth overall pick rolled around. Jackson was primarily a catcher in high school, but the Mariners could move him to a corner outfield spot, assuming he turns pro instead of honoring his letter of intent to the University of Oregon.
Cheers could be heard from inside the Mariners' draft room when they selected outfielder Gareth Morgan with the final pick (74th overall) on the first day in Competitive Balance Round B. A power-hitting corner outfielder out of Blyth Academy in Toronto, Morgan is committed to North Carolina State, but is plenty familiar with the Mariners' brass.
General manager Jack Zduriencik and scouts saw Morgan, 18, when he played with the Canadian Junior National Team in the Dominican Summer League. He also played for the Langley Blaze, a club team near Vancouver, British Columbia, a three-hour drive from Seattle.
Like Jackson, Morgan, at 6-foot-4, 220 pounds, showed flashes of being the type of power, right-handed bat the Mariners want in the middle of their lineup.
"These are the type of players our fans can get excited about," McNamara said Friday.
McNamara said picking sixth and 74th was challenging, because the club didn't have a true idea of who'd be available right up until they were on the clock.
"How do I think this year's Draft went? It was different," he said. "Obviously, we took two high-end high school position players that are offensive guys. It took a lot of work, but we were really pleased to get two players that we had really high on our board."
The Mariners took 31 players from college and nine from the prep ranks. Four had ties to the state of Washington, including left-handed pitcher Nick Kiel (18th round, Bellevue College), shortstop Taylor Smart (26th round, Tahoma High School), left-handed pitcher Andrew Summerville (34th round, Lakeside High School) and Sam Lindquist (37th round, Mercer Island High School).

HTC is no stranger to criticism on its choice of batteries for its latest devices. Earlier this year, HTC decided to incorporate non-removable batteries in many of its flagship devices in an effort to keep handset profiles as thin as possible. Technically, this allows HTC to find a slightly larger battery into a phone without increasing the phone's footprint, but in doing so, HTC has taken away the option for power users to swap out batteries in their phones. In general, non-removable batteries shouldn't really be an issue, but HTC phones like the new HTC DROID DNA are equipped with top-of-the-line specs like Qualcomm's quad-core 1.5GHz Snapdragon S4 Pro processor and 440ppi 5-inch 1080p display.
For a while, there were a few rumors that the HTC DROID DNA would come with a 2,500 mAh battery, but everyone's hopes were shattered when the handset was officially unveiled with the same 2,020 mAh battery found in the HTC J Butterfly. To put things into perspective, a 2,020 mAh battery is actually quite large for a mobile device. There are less than a half dozen Android-powered phones on the market with larger batteries, but none of them features specs comparable to those found in the HTC DROID DNA.
Qualcomm's quad-core processor may sound extremely power hungry, but it's actually extremely power efficient. Unlike NVIDIA's quad-core Tegra 3 processor, which keeps all cores revved to the same speed at all times, Qualcomm uses asynchronous core technology. This allows each of the four cores to operate independently, meaning that all four cores are dynamically clocked based on the the processing load required. Therefore, the CPU can operate a lot more efficiently when the device is not loading web pages, watching videos or playing games.
While the processor in the DROID DNA may be great at providing good battery life, the same cannot be said about the 5-inch 1080p display. Yes, Sharp does claim that the Super LCD3 technology used in the display is 2.5 times more power efficient when the display is static and 20% more efficient under heavy load. But, that doesn't change the fact that the 1920×1080 display of the DROID DNA has 125% more pixels than the 1280×720 displays found on phones like the HTC One X, Nexus 4 and Samsung Galaxy S III. Regardless of the improved efficiency of the Super LCD3 technology used over Super LCD2 or Super AMOLED, more pixels always has a direct correlation on increased battery drain.
So how does the HTC DROID DNA batter life perform in real life?
It's still too early to say. A handful of tech sites have already posted their full reviews on the HTC DROID DNA, but none of them seem to agree on how consumers can expect the phone to last on a single charge.
The Verge - The DNA lasted a meager four hours and 25 minutes in the Verge Battery Test, which cycles through a series of websites and high-res images with the screen at 65 percent brightness. In daily use, it frequently tapped out long before the day was over.
Gizmodo - The Droid DNA still lasted until 10pm every night with moderately heavy usage. It's certainly nowhere near the marathon levels of the Droid RAZR MAXX HD, but it outlasts the Galaxy S III
Engadget - In terms of real-life usage, the DNA got us through a full day on moderate use, but it's quite apparent that the screen will drain the battery much faster, so frequent users will need to keep that in mind before heading off on the daily commute.
Android Police - The DROID DNA seems to have perfectly adequate battery life for moderate users, and even a little more than some other high-end phones may provide.

Alan Silvestri
Years Active:
'70s, '80s, '90s, '00s
Alan Silvestri
Of composer Alan Silvestri's many film scores, he is perhaps best-known for his work with director Robert Zemeckis, starting with their first movie project, Romancing the Stone, and continuing through the next decades with many more blockbuster classics. Silvestri began playing music at a young age while growing up in Teaneck, NJ, and was already considering a music career by the age of 15. He attended the Berklee College of Music in Boston, but after only two years moved out to Las Vegas and started touring with Wayne Cochran & the C.C. Riders. Silvestri became interested in arranging and ended up stranded in Los Angeles after a job opportunity for arranging fell through. He got his first break at around the age of 20, when he met Golden Globe and Oscar nominee lyricist Bradford Craig; through Craig, he got a job scoring the small film (with no previous scoring experience) The Doberman Gang (1972). After this, Silvestri worked on other low-budget movies until getting a steady job in 1977 scoring the television series ChiPs. After the show was canceled, Silvestri's career hit a dry period that ended when he teamed up with Zemeckis on a film that proved to be a big break for all involved: Romancing the Stone (1984). Silvestri and Zemeckis have teamed up on many successful films since, including Back to the Future (1985), Who Framed Roger Rabbit? (1988), the number one box office hit Forrest Gump (1994), and What Lies Beneath (2000). Silvestri has scored many films outside of his work with Zemeckis, as well, including Flight of the Navigator (1986), Predator (1987), The Abyss (1989), The Bodyguard (1992), The Quick and the Dead (1995), Stuart Little (1999), and many more. Some of Silvestri's music was released on CD, including the soundtracks for Richie Rich (1994), Father of the Bride, Part II (1995), The Quick and the Dead, and the compilation Voyages: The Film Music Journeys of Alan Silvestri.

I want Naomi Teplow to design an arm band tattoo, in those beautiful hues of cobalt blue she uses in her Hebrew transcription artwork and her ketubot. Of course I want some of the other vibrant colors Naomi is famous for putting from Pallet to paper. The geometrical shapes, like the star of David, linked together by other symmetrical polygons framing a verse in Hebrew, mixed in with some images of nature…other than birds, fish or animals. I'm imagining an olive branch. All this surrounding the words, written right to left in Hebrew, from one of my favorite books of the Old Testament; The Book of Job
I broke the fangs of the wicked and snatched the victims from their teeth
-Job 29:17
This verse in Hebrew, is also Hebrew poetry. It "rhymes" — not in the way English speaking poets, like Lil' Wayne understand rhymes. Not like the Cat in the Hat, Dr. Seuss way either. Hebrew poetry, which was used throughout Scripture, sounds redundant when translated into English. However, in a line (stanza?) of Hebrew poetry, it's necessary to use the subject (or some noun or verb?) twice, but use a synonym the second time. See:
I smashed the fangs of the wicked and snatched the victims from their teeth.
I think this is what it would look like, but I'll take Petal Mashraki's advice, in her article, Verify Hebrew Text Before Getting a Tattoo — and have it checked by a Hebrew speaker / reader / writer before putting ink to skin. I wouldn't mind a few pairs of trusted eyes on that string of ancient symbols before putting ink to skin, lest it really read " I think girls are ickey and have cooties"
I'm not sure what she will think of this request, because as Petal also justly warns her readers; tattoos are a bit religiously naughty from the Judeo-Christianperspective. Not so much with Catholics, but very much so with Seventh-day Adventists, right Natasha Polak? To give this tattoo an even more ancient Hebrew aura, I don't want to include any animals. Jewish artists of old were forbidden to make sculptures (graven images) or drawings of fish birds or higher animals. Designs, plants, flowers, and as per my request, an olive branch with leaves should be okay.
Gripe as tattooless theophiles may, tattoos are more popular now than ever before in the last 5000 years, and are definitely here to stay. And now, the inks they use are so advanced, they easily compare to the vibrancy of the media Naomi and other non-skin artists use in their creations. Some tattoo inks glow in the dark and under an ultra violet light. Cool huh? As someone who is pro-tattoo, for men and women, and has had a couple of them for over half my life, I have two warnings:
1) You don't get a tattoo, you earn one. Men have a lower threshold for pain, I admit, but like many other rights of passage, there is a certain level of pain involved in earning this possession.
2) Choose your tattoo carefully, you will have it as long as you live, longer in fact. I'm not sure if they get erased when we get our glorified bodies back at the Resurrection. However I can attest to the fact that they're the only possessions I was able to keep through two divorces.
My ex-step-mother-in-law has had hers almost as long as she has been alive, since she is now pushing seventy-five. I'm sure that the three inch vulture, perched on a branch on her left shoulder blade, will be looking over the squirrel humping a rabbit, or is it a rabbit humping a squirrel –? Oh yeah, it's a squirrel humping a rabbit because the other way around you wouldn't be able to see the squirrel's tail, tattooed over her right ankle, to her regret, for years to come.
Would you believe that every word of that paragraph above was true? Just let it be a lesson to you: If you are getting a tattoo, get one that you wouldn't mind not out-living. Not that my ex-step-mother-in-law has any plans of dying soon to escape this indelible menagerie…No one who knows her can even imagine that scenario, because it would mean that she would have to stop talking.
Choose carefully, and translate properly -you will have this longer than you will live.

(UNDATED) - Nobody likes extreme and prolonged heat, but such conditions can be deadly for seniors.
The county remains under a heat advisory as temperatures and humidity continue to climb.
According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) heat is the number one weather-related killer in the United States. On average, excessive heat claims more lives each year than tornadoes, hurricanes, floods and lightning combined (http://www.noaawatch.gov/themes/heat.php).
"The elderly are often the most vulnerable to severe heat," said Jeff Huber, president of Home Instead, Inc., franchisor of the Home Instead Senior Care network. "Their bodies do not adjust as well as young people to sudden changes in temperature, they are more likely to have a chronic medical condition that changes normal body responses to heat, and they are often on a prescription medicine that impairs the body's ability to regulate its temperature or that inhibits perspiration," he continued.
If you are a senior or caring for an elderly individual, the following tips, from the local Home Instead Senior Care office, will help them combat the heat:
- Keep a glass of water in every room to quickly and easily access fluids. Drink plenty of fluids, even if you don't feel thirsty.
- Go through the closet and remove all heavy materials, long sleeves and dark colors. Store them until fall.
- Set fashion trends. If you're in need of new clothes, check out the latest fashion magazines. Look for short sleeves, lightweight rayons or cottons, and light-colored clothing that reflect the heat.
- Stay out of the sun during the hottest times of the day. Fill up your bird feeder in the morning and water the lawn at night. Sunburn makes the job of heat dissipation that much more difficult.
- Put down that broom! Save household chores, particularly washing and drying clothes and operating the dishwasher, for evenings, when the weather is cooler.
- Take a nap during high heat times - between 3 and 5 p.m. in the afternoon, for instance - or find a good television program or movie to watch.
- While you're napping or enjoying a movie, keep shades down and blinds pulled. Keeping a house tightly closed is more energy efficient.
- Invite your friends over for an iced tea break. Replace coffee breaks with iced tea or lemonade breaks in an air-conditioned spot - not the patio. Staying in an air-conditioned dwelling during hot days is safer.
- Go on a shopping spree. If you don't have an air conditioner, or if yours is broken, spend the afternoon at the mall. You can shop or just enjoy cool drinks and a good book.
- Put away that meat loaf recipe for the summer and track down new recipes for fruit and vegetable salads. Foods like proteins that increase metabolic heat production also increase water loss.
- If increased use of a central air conditioning system causes higher utility bills that are a problem for your budget, consider purchasing a fan or small window unit that can cool down a home at a lower cost. In fact, window fans provide an effective way to exhaust the day's hot air during the night.

AVONDALE, Ariz. Danica Patrick was bummed after fading on the last lap of a historic Daytona 500.
Some kind words from owner Tony Stewart and race winner Jimmie Johnson picked up her spirits a little.
To have somebody like Tony Stewart and Jimmie Johnson tell me that on some level I made good decisions out there at the very end was a really nice thing for them to say, Patrick said from Phoenix International Raceway on Friday.
It makes me feel a little better. I still feel like I want to have a better plan in the future, but in that moment (they said) I had made some decisions, so it was appreciated.
In her first full season in a Sprint Cup car, Patrick became the first woman to be on the pole at the Daytona 500 and raced near the front all day, leading five laps. Coming around on the final lap, she had Johnson and Greg Biffle in front, leaving her in position to make a run for the win.
Instead, Patrick got bogged down on the outside behind Biffle and was passed by drivers on the low side, fading from third to eighth.
In her postrace meeting with Stewart, co-owner of Stewart-Haas Racing, Patrick was told she made the right move and probably would have lost even more ground if she had tried something.
I thought she did a great job last week, Stewart said at PIR. She played a very, very smart race because its very easy to get overanxious and want to do better than where youre at and cause yourself to have a worse day. She displayed a lot of patience, and thats really hard to do. So I thought she did a great job.
Patrick also received some more encouragement from Johnson after congratulating the five-time series champion on his second Daytona 500 win.
He said I did a nice job, too, Patrick said. I said I wish I had a better plan, but thank you, and I have a lot to learn. He said that the two wins he had, he didnt have a plan, and sometimes you just have to take it on the fly and work with what happens in the moment.

50 Years Ago
From The Files Of February 28, 1963

Dates will be August 17th and 18th, Sunday and Monday. We will be going out with Bandito Charters for two dives/per day. Specifics will be posted as the dates approach. For now there are 7-10 open spots, for a total of 10-14 divers, depending on interest. In addition if people would like there could be a meet and greet the evening of the 17th in Seattle area, maybe a chance to bring dvds of your stuff to show off.
This is a "first post/commit first served" soiree. If there is overwhelming interest we may limit to current WP members but if we have trouble filling the boat all dives buddies will be welcome. Since we are chartering the boat you need to be sure you can make the dates you commit to.
If interested post here, most fair system.
Any questions just post and I will try to get answers.
PS: this is NWDiver but tried changing my email and now I can't post or get into my old email.

Global Connections
The purpose of this class is to allow each student to explore another culture in a supervised setting with mentors who guide the process. By participating in the Global Connections experience, students will develop personal spiritual formation, experience global cultures, learn about other perspectives and worldviews, and actively participate in service and witness projects. (This mission statement is aligned with the Evangel University Mission Statement and EU 20 Outcomes for students at Evangel University.)
Contact Sandy Friesen regarding academic questions (including placement) about ICST 350 and for questions regarding the Global Connections Program at Evangel University.
Global Connections (ICST 350): Academic Outline
Global Connections is an intercultural studies course focused on equipping students to experience, reflect on and evaluate cultures other than their own. Through immersion and observation in another culture, students learn about another culture, and also about themselves.
Global Connections is a three-credit course comprised of a two-credit hybrid course and a one-credit lab experience.
The hybrid course consists of the following (1 credits):
- Eight weeks of online video lectures administered through ANGEL.
- Required reading from three different texts:
- Cross Cultural Servanthood: Serving a World in Christlike Humility. Elmer, D.
- Figuring Foreigners Out..Storti, C.
- Destination Asia Pacific Team Member's Guide. Plake, J.
- Pre-field exam (test material taken from video lectures and text).
- Final Integrative Reflection paper or Lab Experience Portfolio.
The lab may be completed in one of the following four ways (2 credit) :
Lab 1 (Lecture 10): Previous intercultural experience
All previous intercultural experiences must be approved by a Global Connections committee. Once a previous experience has been approved by the committee, it is the obligation of the student to fulfill the one-credit hybrid portion of the class including, as mentioned above, an Integrative Personal Reflection paper or Lab Experience Portfolio.
"A previous intercultural experience" may be interpreted broadly. Past intercultural experiences may satisfy Lab 1 (Lecture 10) requirements if they can be documented in the Integrative Reflection Paper or Lab Experience Portfolio according to the building blocks of culture as discussed in Craig Storti's, Figuring Foreigners Out.
Potential Previous Experiences: Youth ministry trip, high school educational tour, foreign exchange students, 3rd culture students (MK's, military kids, intercultural students).
Lab 2 (Lecture 20): Cross-cultural experience in the local region
A cross-cultural experience in the local region will encompass many different opportunities, including weekend visits or short multi-trip experiences to local ethnic communities, visits to local ethnic churches in the area and participation in service projects with local service and social justice organizations.
Potential Trip Examples: Japanese Festivals at Nathanael Greene Park, Mennonite Community Experience and Dinner in Seymour, Missouri., Korean Culture Experience, Mexican Festival, Assumption Abbey in Ava, Missouri., Intercultural Retreat, Inner City Ministry, Mosque (Islamic Center of Springfield), St. Louis Church Planting and Inner-City Ministry and Joyce Meyer Ministry in St. Louis, Missouri.
Lab 3 (Lecture 30): Cross-cultural experience in the United States
A cross-cultural experience within the United States will allow students the opportunity to experience cultural diversity inside the boundaries of their own country. These experiences will include all the elements of a short-term mission trip experience, including travel, submersion into American subcultures, team bonding activities and celebration experiences. These trips will most often occur during holiday breaks within the academic calendar, most often spring break, summer break and Christmas break.
Potential Trip Examples: Los Angeles Dream Center, New York Dream Center, Las Vegas, assist F.R.E.E. International, Dallas ministry to the homeless.
Lab 4 (Lecture 40-90): Cross-cultural experience outside the United States
A cross-cultural experience outside of the United States will occur in locations where the Assemblies of God and Evangel University have preexisting relationships. Each location will be carefully selected with attention to length of travel, student safety, economic feasibility, and quality of experience.
Below are the possible cross-cultural experiences outside the United States.
- Lecture 40: Africa
- Lecture 50: Asia
- Lecture 60: Eurasia
- Lecture 70: Europe
- Lecture 80: Latin America
- Lecture 90: North Asia/China

DES MOINES, Iowa - Grant Stromberg led a trio of Lipscomb runners in the 5,000-meter run Thursday night at the U.S.A. Junior Nationals at Drake University.
Stromberg finished 12th in a field of 27 runners with a time of 15:28.83. Thomas Awad from Penn won the race with a time of 15:00.67.
"Grant matched Dani Walker's 12th place finish in the Women's 5000m U.S.A. Junior Nationals," Lipscomb coach Bill Taylor said. "Dani has certainly had a great career so far. I think Grant should be really happy."
Lipscomb's Jared Wingerter crossed the finish line in a time of 15:39.38 to finish 20th. Teammate Daniel Gardner finished 21st with a time of15:45.26.
"The guys ran hard," Taylor said. "It's so tough to race a national championship off rest and less than three weeks of easy distance runs. We knew that. I was looking for effort and toughness.
"All three guys were right in the big lead pack for most of the race. They put all they had out there tonight and they come away as stronger competitors for the future."
The track season is over, but the three will still be in training.
"Now we can put all of our mental focus on the upcoming cross country season," Taylor said.
The highlight of the season will be the Atlantic Sun Championship hosted by Lipscomb.

Easter Passion Play is April 23, 2011
Top HeadlinesDate: April 4, 2011
Contact: email@example.com
Website: http://passionplay.andrews.edu
Phone: 269-471-8360
The emergence of spring at Andrews University brings with it an opportunity to witness to the community. Since 2003, Andrews University has hosted its annual Easter Passion Play on campus, drawing thousands of audience members from across the country to each event. With the help of 600+ community and student volunteers, the eighth annual Easter Passion Play will return on Saturday, April 23, to celebrate the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
"Families will love the Easter Passion Play because it is interactive learning," says Ron Whitehead, executive producer of the Easter Passion Play. "The Bible story comes alive with the sights, sounds and smells of Bible times. It is the most powerful story ever told."
In 2003, the first Easter Passion Play on the campus of Andrews University was produced under Whitehead's vision and direction. Since its beginnings, the production has grown from attracting a 5,000-member crowd to an estimated 10,000 expected at this year's production.
The indoor/outdoor walk-through experience begins at the Howard Performing Arts Center with a short video welcome and the opening scene. Then, visitors head outdoors to be part of the crowd at Jesus' triumphal entry into the Jerusalem marketplace. The audience will then be guided through the sights, sounds, smells and tastes of the marketplace, complete with live animals and food samples. Continuing on the journey, participants will experience a Roman encampment, hear Christ's words at the Last Supper and witness the arrest of Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane.
The reality of Christ's sacrifice is depicted through a moving crucifixion scene followed by a lights-and-sound show in the darkened Johnson Gym. The production culminates here with the Savior emerging victorious from the tomb.
Hospitality staff will greet and assist participants as they exit the gym. Free refreshments will be available at the Hospitality Tent sponsored by Pioneer Memorial Church. Visitors can take a moment to reflect in the Prayer Room and/or ride a free shuttle bus back to main event parking areas.
"Being part of the Easter Passion Play is all about service," says Dave Fernandez, Spanish student at Andrews University. Dave portrayed the role of Jesus during the 2009 and 2010 Easter Passion Plays. He says, "You have to pray for God to humble you and let Him be seen through you... When you allow yourself to be broken and used—it's an incredible blessing."
Individuals, families, church and school groups are encouraged to reserve wristbands early for this event. Wristbands will be given at the first scene and can be reserved online for free at www.passionplay.andrews.edu. The first rotation will begin at 10 a.m. followed by new rotations every 30 minutes until 6:30 p.m. The Spanish rotations will take place at 3 p.m. and 5:30 p.m. Participants should arrive 30 minutes prior to their scheduled rotation.
If you are interested in volunteering, visit www.passionplay.andrews.edu and click on the "Volunteers" link. Volunteers must complete a registration form and receive approval in order to participate in the event. Non-speaking roles are still available.

A rather pressing question came to my mind today and that is, do I spend too much time blogging, being on social media etc etc?
After having realized that my reader did not seem to be working, or only worked for a few blogs, I decided that in order not to miss anyone's posts, I would edit the blogs I follow to email me each and every post that they did.
All I can say is….OMGGGG I was totally overwhelmed, what a mistake.
With following over 70 blogs, and getting emails every time someone likes one of my posts, comments on my posts and plus all other social media, plus yes ordinary non blogging stuff, it got to a point that I simply could not keep up with my emails at all.
In the end I actually did not read any e-mails for about two days as it was totally totally overwhelming. Then I thought, heck if I miss a few posts, that is life, I am sure my lovely blogging friends wont curse and de-friend me just because I have not commented on something, so I un-ticked nearly all blogs to send me e-mails and went and blanket deleted all my google e-mails. Yes a bit drastic, but I thought in for a penny in for a pound.
I might have lost some important information, but will my life end, will the world end? I hope not! So, whilst my macaroni cheese and chicken in pepper, cream cheese and red pesto simmers away …. Yes all you Fiesta Friday cooks, I can cook sometimes…anyway, please would all my lovely blogger friends please share with me your blogging habits…by this I can work out:
- a) am I semi normal in my activities
- b) should I be more organized, is there a better way to do this or
- c) change nothing.
I find reading through everyones posts, commenting, then commenting back (maybe I talk too much), entering challenges, writing posts, OMG takes up so much time, that is not to mention keeping ones blog looking nice, updating facebook, putting my pictures on Flickr, commenting there and answering, oh yes and instagram, which there are comments too. I think someone should gag me…
So here are the questions:
- How many blogs do you follow?
- Do you read all their posts, please elaborate, ie some, how do you determine which?
- How do you feel if you miss someone's post? (maybe I am too conscious about this)
- What is your priority in blogging in your daily routine ie reading up first, commenting, or writing?
- How long do you spend reading up on blogs daily?
- How long do you spend commenting, be it return comments or instigating daily?
- Do you go and visit other outside blogs, if so how often and how the heck do you find the time? LOL
- How many posts do you write a week?
- Are you involved in external social media, ie facebook, flickr, instagram, if so how much time daily do you spend on this?
I seriously would be interested in hearing your answers, if you don't want to answer publically, you can e-mail me on firstname.lastname@example.com The mere fact I am asking probably means I spend too long LOL.

Meet the Re-Nest Team: Therese Maring
Blogger: Therese Maring
Started at Re-Nest: March 2010
Lives: near Madison, Wisconsin
As one of our three Green Tour contributors, Therese photographs a variety of eco-friendly abodes—from farmhouses to modern lakeside homes—mostly in the Madison area. Her tours always convey a sense that real people live in these homes, and they have real ideas that we can be inspired by.
Meet Therese
You most enjoy writing about: Green Tours, especially those involving historic preservation and creative reuse.
Your personal home style is: warm and welcoming. A blend of vintage, family pieces, and new additions. Everything has a story.
Your green home must-have is: as much sunlight as possible, to allow for better passive solar and a generally better attitude.
Your ideal Saturday morning is: I feel like I should say getting up early to hit the farmer's market. But it's really staying in bed listening to NPR, and then eating pancakes.
What's on your nightstand? Sun magazine; a collection from StoryCorps; books on gardening, poetry, and Amelia Earhart; and a catalog for The Clearing Folk School. Plus my glasses.
Where you go for inspiration/info/help? I'm inspired by the people who welcome me into their amazing homes for Green Tours. Some of the websites I like are Poppytalk Handmade, Vintage Roadside, and PreservationNation.org.
DIY or buy? I think of myself as an Idea Person who is, luckily, married to a Craftsman Person. ("Honey, could you build/make/design one of these?")
Favorite CFL or LED lightbulb brand? I haven't committed to a favorite yet.
Favorite green paint brand and color? Paints from Wisconsin-based Hallman/Lindsay that carry their Green Leaf Promise.
This year you're going to: get out and discover more fun, funky sights and treasures during a week-long adventure on hubby's motorcycle.

A Very Stealthy Misunderstanding Of Trademarks
from the first-thing,-let's-kill-all-the... dept
In an age when we're continuously told about the importance of intellectual property, it's amazing how few people understand the differences between the various types of intellectual property protection -- and how some use that ignorance to scare people into giving them all sorts of money. We recently noted that even politicians voting on the issue often don't know the difference between copyrights and patents, and how that could lead to more problems. However, it often seems like trademarks are the most misunderstood element of intellectual property protection -- leading to all sorts of wasted time and money in court. No wonder the lawyers love trademarks. The NY Times is running an article discussing how some guy claims to own the trademarks on a bunch of words, including "stealth," for "all goods and services." That's complete hogwash, of course. Like any other trademark, he only has the right to protect his brand against others using it in ways confusingly similar to ways that he is using it. Yet, he insists that no one else can use the word and sues any company that has a product with the word "stealth" in it -- including Northrup Grumman who tried to register a trademark on "the stealth bomber," an airplane they make. Can anyone seriously say that they would see a stealth bomber model set from Northrup Grumman and be confused that it was too similar to something made by this guy? The problem, though, is that even as he loses many of the cases that actually go to court, it's still too expensive (or too time consuming) for many of those he goes after to deal with. So they just pay him off -- and he continues to sue others. Basically, this guy has figured out ways to use the legal system to bully plenty of people and companies when he simply has no legal standing whatsoever. It's a pure misuse of intellectual property law to simply bully others to make money.

Previous Tunisia Regime Called 'a Gang of Saboteurs'Published on Friday 4th March 2011
Tunisia's new Prime Minister Beji Caid Essebsi has called the country's previous administration " a gang of saboteurs" and promised to name new government by Sunday.Essebsi spoke to reporters Friday in Tunis. He said he and his co-workers are working with "a popular revolution that does not have a framework." He said those who would like to leave the country may do so, but people who would like to stay and work are welcome.Thursday, Tunisia's interim president, Fouad Mebazza, said the country will vote July 24 to elect a council that will rewrite the constitution and chart the country's transition following the ouster of leader Zine El Abidine Ben Ali.In a televised address late Thursday, President Mebazaa said the current constitution "does not meet the aspirations of the people after the revolution" and that the country is entering "a new political system that definitively breaks with the former regime."He also said a group made up of national figures and political representatives will write a new electoral code by the end of March to handle the council vote. The Reuters news agency reported that once elected, the constituent council could either appoint a new government or ask the current executive to carry on until presidential or parliamentary elections are held.Protesters have kept up pressure since Ben Ali's fall, demanding a timetable for constitutional reform and elections, as well as a government free of former regime members. Violence on February 26 led to the deaths of at least five people in the capital, Tunis.Six high-profile members of the caretaker government, including former prime minister Mohamed Ghannouchi, have stepped down since Sunday as demonstrators vent their anger at the slow pace of change since Ben Ali's departure.The Tunisian protests touched off anti-government demonstrations in Egypt, Libya, Yemen, Bahrain, Oman, Jordan, Algeria, Morocco, Iran and Iraq.

The rule of 72 says that to find the number of years required to double your investment at a given interest rate, you simply divide the interest rate into 72.
For example, if you want to know how long it will take to double your money at 18%, divide 18 by 72 and receive the result of 4 years.

"We love him, because he first loved us." 1 John 4:19
Suggested Further Reading: 1 John 3:14-18
We have known many Christians who have forgotten much of their love to Christ when they have risen in the world. "Ah!" said a woman, who desired to do much for Christ in poverty, and who had had a great sum left her, "I cannot do as much as I used to do." "But how is that?" said one. Said she, "When I had a meagre purse I had an overflowing heart, and now I have an overflowing purse I have only a meagre heart." It is a sad temptation for some men to get rich. They were content to go to the meeting-house and mix with the ignoble congregation, while they had but little; they have grown rich, there is a Turkey carpet in the drawing-room, they have arrangements now too splendid to permit them to invite the poor of the flock, as once they did, and Christ Jesus is not so fashionable as to allow them to introduce any religious topic when they meet with their new friends. Besides this, they say they are now obliged to pay this visit and that visit, and they must spend so much time upon attire, and in maintaining their station and respectability, they cannot find time to pray as they did. The house of God has to be neglected for the party, and Christ has less of their heart than ever he had. "Is this thy kindness to thy friend?" And hast thou risen so high that thou art ashamed of Christ? And art thou grown so rich, that Christ in his poverty is despised? Alas! Poor wealth! Alas! Base wealth! Alas! Vile wealth! It would be well for thee if it should be all swept away, if a descent to poverty should be a restoration to the ardency of thine affection.
For meditation: If success in the world goes to our hearts it can do others much good (1 Timothy 6:17-19); if it goes to our heads it can do us much harm (1 Timothy 6:9-10).
Sermon no. 229
19 December (1858)

French farmers in egg-smashing rampage in Brittany
PARIS (AP) — French farmers are threatening to amplify a protest over low egg prices by smashing thousands of eggs on the streets and squares of France's main poultry producing region of Brittany.
The head of Brittany's egg producers' lobby Yves-Marie Beaudet says he "understands the movement" that began earlier this week when local press reports say around 15 masked farmers dumped pallets holding tens of thousands of eggs in front of a grocery store in Ploumagoar. The action has continued nightly in the region since Tuesday.
The cause of the farmers' anger? Over-production and expensive renovations to meet new European norms on hen houses that have resulted in farmers making only 0.7 euros (94 cents) per kilogram of eggs, down from 1.10 euros per kilogram last year.
