The Legendz Longhorns came in as a seasoned team with a new look. So far the roller hockey squad has maintained a high standard on the rink.
Legendz are in second place in the Logic Adult Roller Hockey League. Heading into week four of the competition the Longhorns are 2-1 including a resounding 9-7 victory over the defending champion Islanders.
Stats-wise Legendz have held their own. The side has four of the league's top scorers. Teenage sensation and captain Brad Galbraith has made good on his desire to pursue a scoring title as he leads all others with 10 goals, three assists and 13 points.
Close behind is team-mate Jason Windsor who has a league-best seven assists, two goals and nine points. From there are ball hockey stalwarts Derek Bruce (six assists, two goals, eight points) and Mark Thompson (four goals, three assists, seven points).
However the picture is not all rosy for Legendz. They have only scored 22 goals while allowing 23 goals. Goalie Jeremy Olynik has been a bit rusty as he has 69 saves and a save percentage of just 66.7 percent.
In addition the side will have its hands full when it takes on the High Rollers. The clubs square off on Tuesday 1 March at 8pm at the Logic arena of Kings Sports Centre. The High Rollers come into the match in excellent form themselves atop the league with a 3-0 record.
The team boasts the top goalie, on paper, in Andrew Finlason (71 saves, a league-low 13 goals allowed and a league-best 81.7 save percentage) and a top five scorer in Dan Etherington (one assist, seven goals, eight points).
Tuesday will also feature a match between a pair of slow starters in ITS Cayman and the Islanders at 9pm. ITS (who play in last year's Budget Beavers uniforms) have stumbled to an 0-3 mark, thanks in large part to a flat offence (just 14 goals scored).
Mark Missal may be on target offensively (third in scoring with three assists, six goals and nine points) but he's lacking support from veterans Chris Moser and Jamie Lyon (three goals and seven points combined).
Reigning champs Islanders, who feature a rejuvenated Brendon Malice (five assists, three goals, eight points) will be under pressure to beat Randy Cannon. The new ITS goalie has done well to produce a league-best 81 saves and a decent save percentage of 75.3 per cent.

Let's be dignified. Tell me the end.
Who wrote this book and when?
Kazuo Ishiguro, in 1989.
Has there been a movie made of this book?
Yes, starring Anthony Hopkins and Emma Thompson as the principal characters, and Christopher Reeve and Hugh Grant as others.
Who are the main characters?
Mr. Stevens – an aging English butler who served Lord Darlington for a large part of the 20th century and now serves an American at Darlington Hall
Miss Kenton/Mrs. Benn – the former housekeeper of Darlington Hall, now married
Lord Darlington – the owner of Darlington Hall at its zenith
Mr. Farraday – the current owner of Darlington Hall, an American
What's it about?
This is the story of Stevens, an English butler who has been given some time off while his American employer, Mr. Farraday, is out of the country. Stevens uses this time to travel the English country on his way to Little Compton and pay a visit to a former co-worker, Mrs. Benn. All along the way, Stevens thinks Mrs. Benn (or Miss Kenton, as he calls her) would be willing to return to Darlington Hall to work, and his memories of her inevitably lead to memories of his previous employer, Lord Darlington and an evaluation of Stevens' life as a butler.
Why is this book a classic?
It touches on a topic which everyone must wrestle with in their older years – the remaining hours in their day of life. Was their life worthwhile, did they make the right decisions, was it a waste? And in this case, we meet a man who is not entirely sure he likes the answers to those questions.
Why should I read this book?
I'm not sure. It was a little over my head, to be honest, but it gave me a perspective on an occupation I don't really think about too much. Those who served the rich and powerful in the last century.
Has it won any awards?
It won the Booker Award in 1989.
Favorite Quotes:
"Now I am quite prepared to believe that other countries can offer more obviously spectacular scenery. Indeed, I have seen in encyclopedias and the National Geographic Magazine breathtaking photograps of sights from various corners of the globe; magnificent canyons and waterfalls, raggedly beautiful mountains. It has never, of course, been my privilege to have seen such things at first hand, but I will nevertheless hazard this with some confidence: the English landscape at its finest – such as I saw it this morning – possessesa quality that the landscapes of other nations, however more superficially dramatic, inevitably fail to possess. It is, I believe, a quality that will mark out the English landscape to any objective ovserver as the most deeply satisfying in the world, and this quality is probably best summed up by the term 'greatness'." – p28
"But this small episode is as good an illustration as any of the hazards of uttering witticisms. By the very nature of a witticism, one is given very little time to assess its various possible repercussions before one is called to give voice it, and one gravely risks uttering all manner of unsuitable things if one has not first acquired the necessary skill and experience." – p 131
Anything else?
Kazuo Ishiguro has written a movie, "The White Countess", which is being put out this spring and has been produced by the same men who produced the film version of "The Remains of the Day." It's starring Ralph Fiennes, and if anything like his novels, promises to be wonderful.
Personal thoughts:
So i'm pretty sure that all of Ishiguro's books will make me feel like I'm not quite intelligent enough to understand them. I know the themes are there, I know what they are, even recognize how they're played a little, but I just can't fully grasp them – the story itself isn't enthralling enough to make the theme feel worthwhile. What a horrible thing to say about this man's writing, but there it is.
Ishiguro seems to have a gift with writing about those who are trapped in the past while forced to live in a very different present. This is a major theme in the other novel by him which I have read – "An Artist of the Floating World". Even the storytelling is similar, with flashbacks of the past put into perspective by what is happening now. I didn't particularly enjoy this book all that much, the only thing that kept me reading it was the romantic tension Stevens created for himself. And the fact that I wanted to know the "real" story of the book before watching the movie version.

If you have a Teacher in your family, please go give that person a hug.
Right now, I am feeling this phenomenal fatigue wash over me.
Probably cause the adrenaline has just now worn off.
During the last period of the day, I stepped out of my classroom and left my student teacher just happily teaching away.
I didn't think twice about.
I had school issues to tend to.
As I was making my way down the hall, I saw an Administrator up ahead walking AWAY from me.
Now that I think about it, he was pretty far ahead of me and was walking like he was on a mission.
And I could see that he was escorting a male student around the corner.
And then I realized that two security guards were walking rapidly TOWARDS me.
I kept walking down the hallway, but was beginning to tune in to my environment a little bit more.
Just before I rounded the corner, I saw the Administrator turn around and start walking back toward me.
Then he suddenly stopped.
He used his Walkie-Talkie as a pointing device and turned in the direction of the corner and said "Get Back."
He was not talking to ME though, so I kept on going a few more steps.
I rounded the corner.
And I saw the kid he had been escorting.
And THEN I saw the look on that kid's face.
He was leaning against a wall like he wanted it to absorb him.
Big Eyes.
I asked him if he was OK and he nodded...but he didn't move from the spot he was in.
He didn't look angry.
He wasn't physically agitated.
He was very still.
And when I asked him what was wrong, he looked me straight in the eye and very clearly said,
"I've Got A Bullet Issue."
|Photo is Courtesy of Yahoo Images
He didn't offer any further explanation.
He just gave me a look as if he was assessing my level of Street Smarts.
I nodded.
And said "I see".
And we waited there together in silence.
After about 5 minutes I asked him to tell me the what was going on.
As he told it, while at lunch today, a student who dislikes him & often bullies him threatened to have another student put a bullet in him.
He called both young men by name.
He said that they were down the hall.
And yes, if you are tracking this story correctly...that's the same hallway that I had been casually walking down when I first realized that something unusual was going on.
Reality Slammed Me with the thought that it was possible that some student on MY Hallway might have a gun and might be quite willing to use it today.
I swallowed.
I have to hand it to the kid though.
He was articulate.
He was calm.
No Tears.
Just Big Eyes.
I stood there realizing that I had positioned myself with a student who was a Target.
And I stood there thinking that this just might be REAL and not just some adolescent trash-talk... because this was taking a long time.
What was going to happen if someone down the hall indeed DID have a gun?
While we stood there, I was mentally trying to work "What If" options for where we would try to go if we heard heavy footsteps running toward us.
We waited there for about 30 minutes before it was all over.
To the Best of My Knowledge
No Gun Was Found On Our Campus.
The Administrator eventually walked back to where he had stashed the student.
He saw that I had stayed with the kid.
And he thanked me.
The Kid walked away with the Administrator.
I went to the Faculty Restroom and tried to collect myself,
I wasn't shaking, and I wasn't crying.
But I was actively contemplating how fast things can get out of hand in a school.
The General Public has no idea how much Teachers and Administrators deal with.
If this had happened at The Mall, it would have made The Evening News.
But we just take it in stride.
We Investigate, Take the Appropriate Measures, File Reports, Dust Our Hands, Thank God for a Good Outcome, and Go Home At the End of the Day.
People...Today, a Student had A Bullet Issue....which meant that this Teacher had A Bullet Issue too.
So let me just state for the record that I don't LIKE having Bullet Issues. OK? Sheesh!
It's Scary!!!
I remember praying very early this morning for God to keep my school safe today.
It's NOT a Prayer that I Uttered Lightly.
And it's one that I am SO glad that I took the time to pray about.
So Yeah, Figuratively and I guess somewhat Literally too, it looks like We "Dodged The Bullet" Issue Today.
God please keep that young man and all the rest of us safe.
Please Protect Our Schools.
Like I said at the start of this post...If you have a Teacher in your family, please go give that person a hug.
In Him,

Day 8 – October 4, 2016 – Tuesday
Well, today started out the same, cloudy and dreary, so not in. hurry to get out out of the sleeping bag. Slept well again, and when I drove out, there was a dusting of snow on the ground, with much more at higher elevations…really pretty but cloudy, so not much drama. Headed out to Porcelain Basin near Norris and spent a lot of time there using the umbrella because it was snowing. bit, but it gradually stopped. Some good color there, especially a wild lime green stripe, but mostly bright tan or white with lots of steam vents. Of course it was the usual circus there. Then headed to the Canyon area to see the falls again after 38 years. An even worse circus there, but I just planted myself in one spot and did my thing, both abstracts and the falls. at one point, I was waiting for the light while the circus surrounded me when a woman starts looking through her camera, moves closer, looks again, moves almost on top of me, looks again, then actually puts her camera in front of mine!! I said, "Do you want to use my tripod?" These tourists are amazing to watch and listen to. It was mostly cloudy, but the sun did peak out once in a while, and I waited for a while for some sunshine of the falls and canyon. It is a pretty steep canyon with colorations a bit like Bryce, but with a big river running through the bottom. I figured I'd end up at West Thumb Geyser Basin since it had begun the snow again and I thought I could do some of the steam pots along Yellowstone Lake in a mysterious way. But I needed the whole set up with the umbrella and plastic bags, and the snow was a few inches deep in the boardwalk. Got what I wanted and called it a day photographically, and headed toward Old Faithful in time for something to eat at the bar and maybe catch the debate.
Well, as usual, the plan fell by the wayside since the snow was much heavier than I thought, so I had to drive slow on the completely snow-covered highway. Things slowed up a bit when I saw emergency flashers ahead and found an SUV in the trees. Two oriental guys said they were OK, and I said I would let the rangers know when I got to Old Faithful. Drove two more miles and saw more emergency flashers, but this time with a line of cars not moving. Figures something was up, and just settled in for a long wait. One guy who walked up ahead said they were dragging a car out and it shouldn't be much longer. In the meantime, tow idiots decided they would just go around the entire line, so I blew my horn and they cut in front of me!! I don't know where they thought they would be going; we're all stopped for a reason, not just to watch the snow come down. After a while, we finally did move and the Tesla I saw at West Thumb was being dragged out of the ditch and another car was in there too. so I learned real quick how to manually shift the Flex very slowly made my way sown from the Continental Divide, but noticed after a while no one was behind me. Don't know if they were going really slow, or they ended up in the trees as well. When I got to the Inn, I called home even though it was late just to let Orah know everything was OK.
Then went into the bar for something to eat and recharge my camera battery. I hope the 16 mile drive to Madison Campground is easier that what I had just gone through.

Okay. So I made the brave act of asking a creative writer friend to look into my writing, particularly my verses and give me some feedback/critique. The harsher, the better. Can't wait to hear from him. I think I'd like to develop this craft. If I have potential, then good. Otherwise, it will remain as a form of personal expression. Which is good as well.
Also announced to fellow bloggers and some friends that this blog is active again. Of course, I hope to be able to produce various forms of writings using different voices and languages on many subjects. Will see. Will try my best.

Reviews of Erongo Wilderness Lodge
They do not necessarily represent the views of Expert Africa.
Erongo Wilderness Lodge review
Great place.
A unique setting and the tents and main buildings etc use the setting very well. Knowledgable guides and the emphasis on walks was just right for the location. All the staff wanted to share the place, the environment and any interesting happenings with guests and so would point out animals at the waterhole, talk about the stars, make comment about history or answer any other question with a proper conversation.
Wish we had stayed longer!
Beautiful setting without too much gravel road to reach it! Comfortable accommodation and good food in a lovely setting overlooking its own waterhole.
Sundowner walk is gentle, but very pleasant. Early morning walks worth doing and tailored to your needs.
An unexpected gem
We loved this lodge in a beautiful location, the sundowner walk, an excellent dinner under the stars and the early morning walk with Petros.Read more about the whole safari
Great start after 24 hours of travel
Informed guide and well worth the stopover en route to Etosha. Bonus of an excellent morning walk before breakfast.
Best gift shop - value for money and range of goods on offer.
Great walking base, lovely staff
We chose Erongo for the hiking opportunities. These were very good - excellent guides and scenery. After early morning hikes we enjoyed lazing around the large comfortable lounge area. Food was very good and they were very accommodating for vegetarians (looking up recipes on the internet to discuss with us!).
Management were fantastic and lovely people . Their staff were truly delightful and the atmosphere was very special because of that .
Easy access for self drive - fast quiet tarmac from Windhoek then 10 k gravel road (leave your car at entrance if you have a 2 wheel drive and let them drive you up to the lodge). Onoruru pleasant town a short trip away.
Erongo Wilderness lodge - a tent with a view
We were worried that perhaps our final stay in Namibia should have been Okonjima, which was going to be such a hard act to follow, but no - what a delight. Erongo provided yet another fantastic location with yet another type of scenery that Namibia continued to surprise and delight us with. Our tent was lovely, very comfortable, and with a stunning view.
We enjoyed the pleasant little sundowner walk and the following morning thoroughly enjoyed being able to get up early and do all 3 of the walking circuits from the lodge independently. The sundowner drive including the trip to the cave paintings was excellent and we finally saw our remaining antelope, the klipspringer. A fitting end to an excellent holiday.
Lovely - but you need to be fit!
This was the perfect place to spend our last 2 nights in Namibia. After the excitement on Etosha and Okonjima, it was lovely to relax and enjoy this special place in amazing surroundings among the boulders. You need to have fitness here! Our fantastic tented room was set up the hillside, very private, spacious and well equipped. Lovely terrace.
The bar/dining area is up another set of steps and has lovely views of the spectacular scenery. Dinner was under stars on a terrace both nights and although it looked pretty with little lamps, it was too dark. And it limited conversation with other tables because you just couldn't see them! That's my only criticism really, better lighting over dinner outside.
The food was very good, a choice of options for the vegetarian and the chef even willing to cook something that G would like. Their breakfast stuffed pancakes were amazing.
We did the sundowner walk up the hill and a 40 minute walk was rewarded with the most amazing views and a cold beer and snacks carried by the guide.
Next morning we did the 3 hour morning trek, saw the sunrise, watched baboons, explored the massive boulder landscape and just before heading back for breakfast our guide brought out juice & snacks - an unexpected nice touch. Later that same day we did the sundowner drive which included a walk up to a cave with paintings - worth it but not for those scared of steep rock faces!
Really enjoyed our time here - wonderful food & service and the only other comment I would make is that you do need to have a good level of fitness and a sense of adventure as everything is on rock faces or hills.
Erongo Wilderness Lodge review
beautiful location and views, food very goodRead more about the whole safari
Our favourite lodge.
The lodge is situated in a strange area of the Erongo mountains which resemble huge mounds of pebbles. Again, because we only had a 2-wheel drive vehicle, we had to leave our car at the foot of the mountains and be transported by safari truck up to our accommodation. We loved our 'tented' chalet which was large and luxurious and with an open-air bathroom.
The main building is built in a rustic style and decorated with local artefacts. There is a large bar area with a well-stocked bar and the terraced restaurant has views over a small water-hole as well as over the surrounding mountains with huge rocks seemingly poised to fall at any moment. But the piece de resistance is the cuisine! We had fantastic meals splendidly served on tables lit only by solar-powered lamps which allowed us to appreciate the marvellous sunsets.
We spent the day wandering round the surrounding area which is marked out in various walks. We could have gone on some walks with an experienced guide but the idea of scaling some of the surrounding peaks did not appeal to us!
Erongo wilderness lodge, life on the rocks!
Such a fabulous setting it is always a pleasure to return, the tents are great , the food delicious and hospitality good.it is an easy and relaxed place to stay, the staff and guides are very informative.
Would have been nice if there had been an alternate morning walk available on our second day,for one not so able to scale the rocks though!

Filed under: Gaming Rumors | Tags: MAG, Massive Action Game, PS3, Sony
[By Anthony]
A PlayStation Underground survey seems to have revealed something seemingly sinister about Sony's massive action game MAG. A survey was sent out to many users of the PSU service and was entitled '15 questions about payment plans' and seemed to be related to a game sounding a hell of a lot like MAG. The survey apparently hints at a monthly or yearly subscription to the game, not a good sign.
Videogamer contacted a Sony representative about the survey, to which they replied:
"we don't comment on rumor and speculation."
Original. Of course these surveys are used to gage customer feedback, so if you do get one of these survey's in your inbox please give Sony some 'constructive criticism'. Maybe we should get 'Sony Beta Tester' on the job 🙂 .

Christmas is fast upon us. (I don't mean to ignore the other holidays happening this time of year, but since I celebrate Christmas, it's the one that is first and foremost on my mind.)
I am not a shopper. AND I prefer to remember the holiday for what it means. In the religious sense, if ya know what I mean. But the pressure of commercialism remains.
So, in order to lighten the mood and spoof on those who take holiday shopping too seriously, here is my flake-out clip for the week:

Written by dad explaining why he was a vegetarian
Why I am a Vegetarian
Samuel Parker Ware
The anatomy of man is wrong to be anything but vegetarian. If he were intended to be a carnivorous animal, his teeth should be like the cat and dog. The carnivorous animal has a very short intestine. According to our weight we have the longest intestine of any animal. Meat is not our natural food.
We learn to eat meat. If you witnessed an animal butchered and were handed a bloody, unsalted piece of meat, you would be revolted. Before you would eat it you would want it salted and cooked, its taste disguised in various ways, usually using something from the vegetable kingdom. But a nice apple, peach, orange does not need to be disguised to be palatable. Good things grow from the ground all over the world. We do not need to learn to like them, they are our natural food.
If millions of people had to spend a day in a slaughterhouse, they would be vegetarians ever after. For instance, a hog comes by on a conveyor, hanging by the heels. The butcher drives a knife into its heart. In a few seconds it is being dragged through a tank of scalding water. That scalding water is in its mouth, nose, eyes and ears. They often swim and struggle clear through that tank, still feeling the torments of hell.
On two occasions in my life I have been injured and lost so much blood that I could not see well enough to distinguish a face. A white blur was all I could make out. I was frightened and hoped they would soon get me to stop bleeding- could hear any whispering, could feel the slightest touch. Believe the nervous system is the very last to die. Would rather go hungry than eat anything that was tortured.
Can you feature our Savior, Jesus Christ, working in a chamber of horrors like that? Not for a minute! Remember His prayer "Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven. Can you imagine a slaughterhouse in Heaven? God gives his creatures more intelligence than we give them credit for. They all have the emotions of love, fear and sorrow. The death cry of a poor creature is its prayer. God hears those prayers too. "As ye sow, so shall ye reap". We send trainloads of creatures to the slaughterhouse every day. Every generation our best boys are taken away from their loved ones and sent away to be slaughtered and maimed on the battlefield.
Boys that won't come home.
Three hundred thousand men are sleeping there.
They have laid aside all cares.
The noise of battle ceased.
And now they rest in peace.

How can a Small eBay seller survive the new DSR rating?
With Detailed Seller Ratings (DSRs) now affecting everything — Powerseller Status and Discounts, occasional Listings Specials designed for sellers with "good" DSRs, and most importantly the standings in the Best Match searches — gaining a good understanding of how to improve your DSRs is critical. With few exceptions, most sellers have as their lowest DSR rating the Shipping & Handling DSR.
Larger eBay sellers have both advantages (lower negotiated rates with UPS, for example) and disadvantages (labor costs and overhead) in the overall costs they must pay for shipping and handling. However, the biggest intangible benefit that large sellers have is the buyer recognizes a business almost always has higher actual costs that must be compensated for when shipping a package. Buyers tend to be more understanding of the shipping and handling costs for a business eBay seller versus an individual who sells on eBay. This recently came to our attention today as we sat around and discussed the new eBay Seller Dashboard.
We source our product directly from manufacturers and distributors and we have also had our own product manufactured. We allow the people who assist us daily in our mail-order business to have access to the product we procure so that they, too, can have their own eBay account on which they can sell and not have to worry about sourcing product. What we have noticed is that even though these individuals charge the same costs or less shipping costs as we do, for the exact same item, their DSRs for shipping and handling are consistently lower than ours. So, we brainstormed today and we came up with some suggestions as to how a small eBay seller could raise their Shipping & Handling DSR:
1. If there are costs included in the shipping that the buyer would not able to see then be sure to educate them. For example, if you insure postal packages through a third-party carrier, like U-Pic, then that amount would not be immediately recognizable to the buyer and the package would not be stamped as insured. So be sure to let the buyer know what you paid for and that the amount of insurance is included in the shipping cost they paid.
2. Make sure your packaging is professional so that the buyer gets what they consider to be a good value for the cost they paid. It's okay to recycle packaging materials whenever possible as long as the package will still be viewed favorably. If you pay for boxes and always use new packaging materials, like packing peanuts, then be sure to state in your auction that the shipping cost the buyer pays includes the cost of a new box and careful packaging.
3. Include a packing slip or some insert which has your eBay store logo and/or name. Be sure to tell the buyer how to contact you (eBay messaging system, phone, etc) if they have questions or concerns. You will be perceived as being more serious about the transaction and thus more deserving of the shipping costs paid.
4. Take a few minutes to write a short hand-written personal note to the buyer, thanking them for their purchase and letting them know that you strive to provide 5-star service. Be sure to include the auction number because the easier you make it for the buyer to leave feedback right away, the more likely you are to get the best feedback possible.
5. First impressions are a lasting impression! Be sure to tape the box nicely so that the customer receives a good-looking package. Avoid haphazard taping and do not over-tape to the point it makes it difficult for the buyer to open their package.
6. Be sure to evaluate all the shipping costs you pay, including packing materials and postage fees, to see if there is any way you can ship more economically. See if you can find other small sellers in your local area to cost-share with by buying in bulk. Buying a larger quantity of packaging materials at one time could get you a lower cost. For priority mail packages, printing your postal labels online now qualifies anyone for commercial discounts.
7. Be sure to offer the buyer shipping choices whenever possible. For example, someone purchasing a 4 pound item could be offered parcel post as well as priority mail shipping rates. In that way, any buyer choosing the lower cost shipping alternative already perceives they are getting a good deal on shipping.
8. Use "stealth" postage whenever possible. Even if you charge little or no handling fee, it is probably not a good idea to remind a buyer what they paid for shipping. No one likes to pay for shipping and you want the buyer's focus to be on the package contents, not on the amount of postage they paid.
9. Remember that stars are "contagious." If you make sure to perform well in other areas, like Communication and Item as Described, you are much more likely to get a good score for Shipping & Handling.
10. Sell more! The smaller the number of sales you have, the more weight each of the scores carry and it only takes one poor rating to have a major impact on your DSRs.
Most small sellers have an advantage in that they typically do not have to pay warehouse or office rent and they probably don't have to pay an employee. Small sellers who keep their shipping and handling costs reasonable and take active steps to improve their DSRs can effectively compete against the larger sellers.

SENATE Majority Leader Harry Reid shrugged off White House complaints that the Senate's delay is curtailing U.S. moni toring of international terrorists by putting the blame on a fellow Democrat. "I can't control Feingold," he told a Republican leader.
Sen. Russell Feingold, a liberal reformer, has rejected the Reid-backed compromise on the legislation authorizing the government to eavesdrop on suspected terrorists in overseas communications. Feingold has complained that the compromise "does not have adequate safeguards to protect Americans' privacy."
Reid's private comments to Republicans reflect his continuing complaint that the partisan deadlock in the Senate is caused by stubborn ideologues in both parties.
OLD Washington hands attending Fred Thompson's Republican presidential fund-raiser at the J.W. Marriott hotel in the nation's capital last week found few people there whom they recognized.
A lot of out-of-towners, especially from Thompson's home state of Tennessee, came in for the event. That meant the major Republican contributors in Washington, including early givers to Sen. John McCain's campaign, are holding off on backing Thompson until they see how he performs as an announced candidate in September.
However, the VIP reception at the Thompson event included a few big conservative names, including anti-tax activist Grover Norquist (who maintains neutrality among all candidates) and activist/filmmaker Dave Bossie (who is an overt Thompson backer).
SEN. Chuck Hagel, the Senate's toughest Republican critic of President Bush's war policy, has not ruled out a campaign for the GOP presidential nomination and will use the August recess of Congress to make up his mind.
A major reason for the unexpectedly strong professions of support for Rep. Ron Paul's libertarian-conservative candidacy is that he is the only announced Republican presidential candidate opposed to the invasion of Iraq. Hagel as an anti-war candidate might attract a broader base of support than Paul. He has received many offers of financial support should he run.
Hagel must decide what to do in 2008: to run for president, to run for Senate re-election or to get out of politics. The betting in the Senate Republican cloakroom is that he will retire, but Hagel has given no signal of his intentions and tells friends that he has yet to make a decision.
GLOOMY top Republicans in Virginia are privately predicting that a man named "Warner" will be elected to the Senate from their state next year, but add that he is likely to be a Democrat.
The state's GOP leaders not long ago were sure that 80-year-old Republican Sen. John Warner would seek a sixth term in 2008, but now they think he probably will not. That would open the door for Democratic former Gov. Mark Warner (no relation) to enter the race. Any Republican would be an underdog against the Democratic Warner.
Rep. Tom Davis is the leading prospect if John Warner does not run, but conservatives are seeking somebody to oppose Davis' nomination. Rep. Bob Goodlatte has turned down a bid to run, and Rep. Eric Cantor has been approached. Whether a primary election or a state convention picks the nominee, the contest probably would make it more difficult for the Republicans in facing a popular Democrat.

text: I'm using them both and they are pretty nice. I like the feel of the keyboard and the fact that the backspace and left control keys are large. I haven't had a number pad on my keyboard in a long time so that is neat too. So far so good. They both run on AA batteries so hopefully they don't burn through them like crazy.

Peter's first letter is a great encouragement in tough times, reminding us of the importance of holding fast to hope no matter what is going on around us. During the week we will read, explore and reflect on the riches this letter has to offer us. Bible Society exists to offer the Bible to the world, making Scriptures available where there are none and accessible and credible in our culture. Paul is Deputy Chief Executive of Bible Society and one of Hannah's greatest joys is seeing stories of Bible Society's work reignite people's desire to engage with the Bible once again… or perhaps for the very first time. www.biblesociety.org.uk

The guy who leads the Scientific Evaluation of Religion things for this location has done a pretty good job the two times I have gone. I really have to give him credit and say I was impressed at how he handled this meeting since IT GOT HIJACKED BY A GROUP OF YOUNG EARTH CREATIONISTS! That's right, you heard me. It was pretty interesting for me to see first hand their pulling out all the old cliché arguments for Christianity. They got started when there was a chapter summary that mentioned that most religious people are skeptical of other peoples faiths but not their own, they took issue with that statement and then proceeded to confirm its accuracy with their actions.
One creationist gave everyone a four-page handout entitled "Evolution, Science or Religion?" which my friend sent me a few days later. Here it is as he sent it to me: (BEGIN LOGICAL FALLACY DRINKING GAME NOW)
Evolution, Science or Religion?
Operational Science by definition uses observable, repeatable, and verifiable experiments to try to discover truth.
Origin Science relies on presuppositions, interpretations, and theory based on artifacts and remains. Origin Science tries to determine the past. This in not real science for it is neither observable, repeatable, or verifiable. Origin Science are interpretations based on operational science.
Scientific Fact Observed- 85% of the world's rock is sedimentary and is found all over the world.
Belief #1 - This rock took billions of years to form through wind and water erosion.
Belief #2 - This rock was formed by a worldwide flood.
Both are beliefs, interpretations of the facts. The question is: which best explains the facts?
Which of these beliefs better explains polystrate fossils? Fossilized trees that go through multiple rock layers? Did those layers form around ther trees over millions of years or was it rapid sedimentation that occurred? What belief better explains this fact?
Which of those beliefs better explain that there are fossilized clams that have been found on the top of Mount Everest?
Have you ever taken a look at Burlingame Canyon? It took 6 days for this canyon to form... it is verifyable.
Scientific Fact Observed- the moon is drifting away from the earth slowly.
Belief #1- The Universe is billions of years old.
Belief #2 - The Universe is only thousands of years old. Because if you trace the drifting of the moon back for millions of years the moon would be on top of the earth. If you trace it back even less than that the moon would be so much closer to the earth that our tides would be out of control.
Which of these beliefs best fit the Science that we observe?
Scientific Fact Observed - Neptune is a very active planet that is still producing heat, has winds that reach over 1300 MPH and it gives off over twice the amount of energy than what it receives from the sun.
Belief #1- The Universe is billions of years old.
Belief #2 - The Universe is only several thousand years old. If it were millions or billions of years old Neptune would have cooled off and become inactive by now because of its distance from the sun. But if it is only thousands of years old then it would still be cooling off.
Use your reason... Assuming man evolved over hundreds of thousands or even millions of years, using an average life span of 43 years per generation and a family producing an average of 2.5 children, accounting for natural depletion by wars, famines, and plagues, our world should be populated by trillions of people. If this is true, where are they and where are the mountains of skeletons they would have generated?
Scientific Fact Observed - Birds give birth to Birds, dogs give birth to dogs, monkeys give birth to monkeys, humans give birth to humans etc.
Belief #1- All living things have a common ancestor. Over a long period of time sea creatures mutated into reptiles, reptiles mutated into birds which eventually led to every living creature we have today. (This is oversimplified but you get the general idea.)
Belief #2- All creatures were created fully functional and give birth after their own kind.
Which belief better fits what we observe?
Scientific fact observed - There has never been a mutation that has ever produced an increase or addition of information to the genetic code.
Belief #1 - Mutations are the engine that has brought about the evolution of all living creatures from single celled organism into all the creatures we see today.
Belief #2 - Mutations do occur. Mutations occor within kinds. There is no way mutation can change a simpler organism into a more complex organism because they do not produce new genetic information. Felines change into different kinds of felines, canines into different kinds of canines, but never felines into canines or any other transition between kinds.
Scientific fact observed - Geological research shows no transitional fossils.
Belief #1 - It's not that they never existed, it's that the geological record isn't complete. "The explanation lies, however, in the extreme imperfection of the geologic record" - Charles Darwin
Belief #2 - Transitions between kinds has never occurred.
"I fully agree with your comments on the lack of direct illustration of evolutionary transitions in my book. If I knew of any, fossils or living, certainly I would have included it... I will lay it on the line. There is not one such fossil for which one might make a watertight argument". - Dr. Colin Patterson, Director of the British Museum of Natural History. Well Respected evolutionist and author, Letter to Luther D Sunderland
When talking about transitional fossils Charles Darwin said, "Geology assuredly does not reveal any such finely graduated organic change, and this is perhaps the most obvious and serious objection which can be urged against the theory"
As stated above Darwin attributed this to the incompleteness of the exploration of the fossil record at the time. But today, well over a century after that time with thousands of tons of fossils from all over the world the lack of transitional fossils is still a problem.
Evolutionist David Raup reviews the evidence from us. He has been the curator of the famous Field Museum of Natural History in Chicago. That museum houses 20% of all fossil species known, so Raup is in a position to speak with considerable knowledge about fossil evidence. He says:
"Well, we are now about 120 years after Darwin, and knowledge of the fossil record has been greatly expanded... Ironically, we have even fewer examples of evolutionary transition than we had in Darwin's time. By this I mean some of the classic cases of Darwinian change in the fossil record, such as evolution of the horse in North America, have had to be discarded or modified as a result of more detailed information."
Which belief better fits the facts?
Scientific Fact observed- everything which has a beginning has a cause (Law of Cause and effect)
Belief #1- In the Beginning the universe caused itself.
Belief #2- In the Beginning God created the universe
If matter had a beginning, then belief number 1 cannot be true, the law of cause and effect shows that everything that has a beginning has a cause. Therefore one must conclude one of two things: either matter had no beginning or it had a cause.
Scientific Fact Observed - The 2nd Law of thermodynamics: The amount of energy available for work is running out, or entropy is increasing to a maximum.
Belief #1 - Matter had no beginning. The universe caused itself.
Belief #2 - Matter had a beginning, it was created by God.
If matter had no beginning then how can the 2nd law of thermodynamics be true? If the total amount of mass-energy is limited, and the amount of usable energy is decreasing, then the universe cannot have existed forever, otherwise it would already have exhausted all usable energy. Therefore if the universe has a beginning, it must have a cause (Law of cause and effect)
Which belief fits the facts? The universe had no cause, or God caused the universe?
One might ask "Well what/who caused God?". Well that's a good question. First I would say that logic demands that there be something which had no cause, something that is eternal. Because if I would answer who/what caused God, you would say "well who/what caused that?" and it would be an endless cycle. There had to have been something which had no beginning, and had no cause. These past two scientific facts prove that matter itself cannot be that which had no beginning or cause. Logic demands there must be something eternal, Science proves matter can't be eternal, the Bible describes God as eternal. God is outside of time/space, He is eternal.
Scientific fact observed- Nonliving matter cannot produce living creatures. (Law of Biogenisis/Pasteur's Law)
Belief #1- Life was spontaneously generated from nonliving matter, not from a Creator.
Belief #2- Life was created by God
Which answer best explains the facts? Science says spontaneous generation can't happen, without God the first living organism would have had to have come from nonliving matter. But this is scientifically impossible.
Sir Ernest Chain, co-holder of the Nobel Prize for developing penicillin said this, "To postulate that the development and survival of the fittest is entirely a consequence of chance mutations seems to me a hypothesis based on no evidence and irreconcilable with the facts. These classical evolutionary theories are a gross over-simplification of an immensely complex and intricate mass of facts, and it amazes me that they are swallowed so uncritically and readily, and for such a long time, by so many scientists without a murmur of protest."
Nobel Prize winning evolutionist and Harvard professor Dr George Wald answered this question when he said, "There are only two possible explanations as to how life arose. Spontaneous generation arising into evolution or the supernatural creative act of a God. There is no third possibility. Spontaneous generation, however, was scientifically disproved by Louis Pasteur and others. Therefore, that leaves only one possibility as to how life arose, that it was a supernatural creative act of a God. However, I choose not to believe this, because I do not want to believe in a God. Therefore I choose to believe that which I know is scientifically impossible."
Why would Dr Wald, a man smart enough to win a Nobel prize, believe and teach something he considered to be scientifically impossible? Because he said he didn't want to believe in a God. Why didn't he want to believe in a God? Because if God is real then we will be accountable to Him one day.
If God is real you will stand in front of Him one day as well, how will you do? Here is a quick test: Have you ever lied? Have you ever stolen something? Jesus said " If you have looked with lust you've committed adultery in your heart" Have you looked with lust? Have you ever murdered someone? Keep in mind Jesus said if you hate your brother or call your brother a fool you will be judged as a murderer. Have you ever taken God's name in vain? This is called blasphemy. This is like taking God's holy name, throwing it into the mud and stomping on it. Imagine if I took your mother's name and used it in place of a 4 letter word. You'd be very offended wouldn't you?... So how will you do? This is only four of the Ten Commandments, which is God's standard of righteousness. When you stand before God will you be innocent or guilty? Will you be deserving of Heaven or Hell? Listen to your conscience, God gave you His moral code and a conscience so that you would know you are in need of Him.
Psalm 53:1 "The fool has said in his heart, There is no God." When you look around and see design, order, art, and creation it is axiomatic that there is a designer, an orderer, an artist, and a creator behind it. We know there is design in something like a chair or an automobile. We know because the object itself is the evidence. You would not have to convince me that someone designed an automobile, I just know. Why then do we try to postulate (based on no facts, just guesses) that there is no designer or creator to nature, plants, animals, and humans?
If your conscience is telling you that you are guilty of breaking God's commands that is a good thing. Listen to your conscience and understand that there is something wrong. Breaking God's law will condemn you to Hell. Once you understand this you will understand that it is not God's will to send anyone to Hell. Jesus Christ came to this earth (a historical fact that only extreme scoffers try to deny). Jesus said, "I am th way, the truth, and the life, no one comes to the Father except through me." You see punishment that we all deserve for breaking God's law was poured out on Christ. God loved us so much that He chose to cruch His own Son for our sake. The Bible tells us that Jesus became sin for us so that we might become the righteousness of God. There is no other belief, idea, person, religion, or anything that can save us from our sins. We must repent (turn from our sins) and believe the gospel. Don't rely on blind faith any longer. Check out the claims of Christ and the Bible for yourself. Remember this story, many people came to Jesus and had objections to His message. He replied to them and said, "Unless you repent you will likewise perish." Please do not be the kind of person that looks for any excuse to reject the message of salvation. Repent and believe the gospel today.
If you started the Logical Fallacy Drinking Game at the top, you are totally sloshed now, so you're probably not even able to focus on the text anymore. Go pray to the white porcelain god for a bit then come back and tell us what you think. :P
My friend (who I am not naming because I didn't ask his permission) says he's going to go through and refute each point. Honestly this kind of dreck just makes me tired. I am posting it without comment for now. Feel free to pick it apart in the comments and maybe we can tackle different parts in different posts.
EDIT: I forgot that my friend (sorry, I really should have asked him if I could use his name, sorry) wrote a little creation story in response:
It's obvious to anyone who looks at the evidence without some preconceived idea.
I mean we know for a fact that Odin, Vili and Ve killed Ymir, and his blood flooded the world and drowned all of the jötunn, except two.
But jötnar grew again in numbers and soon there were as many as before Ymir's death.
Then the gods created seven more worlds using Ymir's flesh for dirt, his blood for the Oceans, rivers and lakes, his bones for stone, his brain as the clouds, his skull for the heavens.
We know this because we see that the the earth is made from only a few "elements". Just use your logic and the wisdom that comes from the all father, Odin.
Also "seven more worlds" right? 1 + 7 = 8 and now that we got the Pluto thing settled there are 8 planets in our solar system. Or should I say "Ymir's left over body soup system" Slam dunk! Norse creation FTW! Jesus PWNED!
Sparks from Muspelheim flew up and became stars.
Sparks, am I right? We know stars are big burny things. That's science people!
One day when the gods were walking they found two tree trunks. They transformed them into the shape of humans. We know this for a fact! Odin gave them life, Vili gave them mind and Ve gave them the ability to hear, see, and speak.
The gods named them Ask and Embla and built the kingdom of Middle-earth for them; and, to keep out the jötnar, the gods placed a gigantic fence made of Ymir's eyelashes around Middle-earth.
Again, that is just science. Look down at your descended from tree truck people bodies and give thanks that we still have eyelashes keeping the jötnar at bay.
All hail the magic giant eyelash fence! WOOT! This is such a brilliant response. It makes way more sense though. LOL
Back to the creationist handout bullshit: I thought about removing the blatant proselytizing at the end, but then I figured you're big people, you can handle it. Your comments are welcome and encouraged.
What's your favorite bit that you find totally insanely stupid? Which fallacy does it commit? Why does it drive you mad?

Superb 9.2 From 117 reviews
This hotel is the place to stay in Reno, especially if you are attending an event at Greater Nevada Field as it's directly across the street. Clean rooms, friendly and helpful staff and free parking!
Nice spot walkable to most of the downtown casinos (without having to stay in them), the Riverside district and next to the new stadium area. My only slight critique is the laundry room. They have one for guests so that is a plus. They offer free supplies - another plus. However, it took them several hours to get quarters off site for guests who wished to use the facilities. Many people wanting to use one machine. Another guest who frequents the place said to me they almost always run out of quarters and always have a line for the one machine. On a Sunday morn at 7am (the day I was to leave) I tried to get quarters and access to the machine. This process ended at 1pm. They were apologetic and extended my check out and gave free drinks from their snack store.
The staff were friendly and helpful, which made our stay much more comfortable, since we were away from home for several days. We like the location as well, since there were a lot of restaurants close by.
Beautiful new hotel. We did see hair in the shower and had a long black hair in our scrambled eggs from the bistro. Very friendly front desk, loved the glass of wine available downstairs.
This is a very nice hotel. Great location and within walking distance to the fun in Reno.
Is the description of this hotel not correct? Tell us

Under Pressure is a 1981 song recorded by Queen and David Bowie. It marked Bowie's first released collaboration with another recording artist as a performer, and is featured on Queen's 1982 album Hot Space. The song reached #1 on the UK Singles Chart. It was also number 31 on VH1's 100 Greatest Songs of the '80s… [more on wiki]
According to Queen bass player John Deacon, Freddie Mercury did most of the songwriting on this, although everyone contributed. The lyrics deal with how pressure can destroy lives, but love can be the answer. The lyrics are characteristic of Mercury's songwriting. (thanks, Bertrand – Paris, France)…. [more on Songfacts]
QUEEN live: The Magic Tour in 1986
David Bowie and Annie Lennox [From the Eurythmics] rehearse "Under Pressure" before the Freddie Mercury Tribute.
Pressure pushing down on me
Pressing down on you no man ask for
Under pressure that burns a building down
Splits a family in two
Puts people on streets
It's the terror of knowing
What this world is about
Watching some good friends
Screaming let me out
Tomorrow gets me higher
Pressure on people – people on streets
Chippin' around, kick my brains across the floor
These are the days, when it rains it pours
People on streets – people on streets
It's the terror of knowing
What this world is about
Watching some good friends
Screaming let me out
Tomorrow gets me higher, higher, higher…
Pressure on people – people on streets
Turned away from it all like a blind man
Sat on a fence but it don't work
Keep coming up with love but it's so slashed and torn
Why, why, why?
Insanity laughs under pressure we're cracking
Can't we give ourselves one more chance?
Why can't we give love that one more chance?
Why can't we give love, give love, give love..?
'Cause love's such an old-fashioned word
and love dares you to care for
The people on the edge of the night
And love dares you to change our way of
Caring about ourselves
This is our last dance
This is our last dance
This is ourselves
Under pressure
Under pressure
[ QUEEN LYRICS at www.AZLyrics.com ]
One of the most covered songs i should say, for its incredible composing with its intimate lyric, a work of art by one of the greatest collaborations ever. The one that you play and loop for half an hour but still not getting enough of it… viva la deacon.

IN HIS letter of Sept. 4, Lavoy E. Phillips of Ocala describes Lt. Col. Oliver North as a ''grandstander and showboater'' because North wears all of the decoration and medal ribbons to which he is entitled, as well as the marksmanship badges he earned.
Perhaps Phillips is unaware of the exacting regulations regarding the wearing of the uniform by Marines. Among these is that when the blouse (coat) is worn, all decoration and medal ribbons to which the wearer is entitled shall be worn. Broadly speaking, decorations are personal awards, such as North's Silver Star, Bronze Star and Purple Heart, while medals denote service in specified campaigns or areas at specified times.

It's crunch time and I am running of adrenaline and a few cups of coffee, why you maybe thinking?? Well its the best time of the year outside of my Rez-Day and Christmas…….HAIR FAIR TIME!!! MMMMMMMM I am salivating at the gorgeous hairs I have I seen and demo's today, one the top my list is Plooms, my new favorite place to get my coif just as I like it, unfortunately I have no demo's of the hair to show you but I can only say "OH MUH GAWD BECKY!…….yes just a little hyper and jittery if you can't tell
I did manage to get a demo from the Curio Group Notice for hairs that will be at the hair fair, I took a few pics to share two of the 4 styles that were given:
Hairstyle – Fauxhemian – by Curio – Light Red_002
Skin – LAQ ~ Pearl – 05 [Fair] Glow skin
Hairstyle – Jade – by Curio – Muted Purple
Skin – Lara Skin-Sophie/Pale
Ok some "Do's & Don'ts" to make your trip to the fair easy, fun and successful:
1. Leave the glam at home – Wear something simple and forgo the primes that add lag to an event like this
DON'T – Leave the Flexi hairstyles, bling and jewelry at home, added prims add to your ARC which can cause lag.
DO – Dress simple, sometimes less is stylish
2. Sometimes getting the demo and taking it home is easier, all those bodies on a sim trying on hair cause major lag-fest so unless you are going to be taking a trip this weekend, grab demo's and go, you can come back for the actual purchase making your life a lot easier.
3. Be polite to all, no one sets out to bump into your precious pixels on purpose, if it happens, smile with grace and dignity and carry on like the veteran shopper you are.
4. Last but most important rule…….HAVE FUN!!!
FYI -The Hair Fair 2010 starts midnight SLT on the 4th of September and ends the 19th of September. For more info about the fair and it's purpose please visit:http://hairfair.wordpress.com/
Hope to see you at the fair. Until my next post travel well and in style!
