The Nonexistent "Seeker Sensitive" Church Model
Recently, I came across a great podcast entitled, "Fighting for the Faith". It is hilarious, but also very sad. I had no clue that so many "seeker sensitive/friendly" churches were out there. I also didn't realize just how crazy most of them are. I always found it funny that a church model's title would center around something that doesn't exist…
As it is written:
'None is righteous, no, not one;
no one understands;
no one seeks for God.
All have turned aside; together they have become worthless;
no one does good,
not even one.' -Romans 3:10-12
No body seeks after God. The only reason someone can seek after God is because God instills his Spirit inside of a person. The only way a person can understand God is by having God's Spirit inside of him/her. We are truly worthless before the eyes of God, but because of Jesus' wonderful work, we are made worthy by his blood. That last sentence is often ignored by these mega churches. The Gospel is often never spoken of in these "seeker sensitive" movements. What do we get instead?
Rick Warren's books:
- "The Purpose Driven Life"
- "The Purpose Driven Life: Graduate Edition"
- "Leading Small Groups with Purpose"
Joel Osteen's books:
- "Your Best Life Now: 7 Steps to Living at Your Full Potential"
- "Scriptures and Meditations for Your Best Life Now"
- "Daily Readings From Your Best Life Now: 90 Devotions for Living at Your Full Potential"
- "Your Best Life Now for Moms"
These two men are synonymous with the "seeker sensitive" movement. However, do you see the major flaw in the books they put out? You don't even need to read them to see what the problem is…the Gospel is nowhere to be found! Unfortunately, I read "The Purpose Driven Life", and I never recall seeing the Gospel. I only read about how I could make my life better by living according to a "purpose" that may or may not be centered around Scripture. I have only flipped through Joel Osteen's new book, but he doesn't write about Christ paying the due penalty for sin. Instead, he writes about how you can make your life better. It is actually really nice because he breaks it down into 7 easy steps (sarcasm).
What these two men, and many others like them, lack is the Gospel. They don't preach Christ crucified. Instead, they preach about how you can make your life better. Read the words of the apostle Paul in 1 Corinthians 2:1-5:
And I, when I came to you, brothers, did not come proclaiming to you the testimony of God with lofty speech or wisdom. For I decided to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified. And I was with you in weakness and in fear and much trembling, and my speech and my message were not in plausible words of wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power, that your faith might not rest in the wisdom of men but in the power of God.
A preacher who does not consistently preach Christ crucified is leading their congregations to destruction. They use their influence to change the world, but they never clean the inside of the cup. They are always focused on doing something instead of properly understanding and preaching Scripture. They work hard on their sermon's, but focus more on their life stories instead of Christ's amazing work on the cross. They use lofty speech to draw, imaginary, "God seeking" people into their churches, but they do not preach Jesus Christ and him crucified.
If you are currently sitting under a teacher that follows a "seeker friendly" model for church, I urge you to get out. I encourage you to find a church that is not only biblically based, but preaches Christ crucified for the forgiveness of sins.
The wolves are out in full force…don't get eaten.
Thanks for reading.

We are not worthless before a holy and awesome God but we are unworthy and unable to come before Him in an unredeemed state. We have an inherent worth as both the creation of God and as image bearers of the one who created us but have become worthless in the purpose of our creation and that is the reflection as true image bearers, ultimately, the Glory of Christ…
I know…just wanted to clarify for those visiting.

This memorandum is submitted in response to
the Committee's press notice No. 25, dated 5 May 2000. I am particularly
concerned about the methods used to market organic food, which
are often very misleading, and can be illegal. In my view they
damage public health and increase health inequalities.
My interest stems from 1989-91, when I was the
head of Pesticides Safety Division in the Ministry of Agriculture.
My task was to ensure that food produced using pesticides was
safe. Currently I am a non-Executive Director of East & North
Herts Health Authority, which gives me some insight into public
EU law prohibits claims which suggest that organic
food is somehow better than conventionally produced food. Article
10, paragraph 2, of Council Regulation No. 2092/91 states "No
claim may be made on the label or advertising material that suggests
to the purchaser that the indication "organic" constitutes
a guarantee of superior organoleptic, nutritional or salubrious
quality." ("Salubrious" is not a good translation
of the French original"wholesome" is nearer the
meaning). The intention of the Regulation is to make clear that
the description "organic food" is a definition of origin,
not a guarantee of any kind of quality. This Regulation is directly
applicable in the UK.
Increasingly advocates of organic food are overstepping
this line, and much publicity material now suggests that organic
food is somehow good for consumers, and definitely superior to
conventionally produced food.
As an example, I enclose details [not printed]
of a recent complaint which I made against a [not printed] booklet
by Tesco supporting its range of organic foods. Enclosed are the
verdict of the Advertising Standards Authority [not printed],
which upheld all three elements of my complaint, and extracts
[not printed] from The Independent newspaper of 10 May which reported
this verdict.
Since then I have also complained to the Authority
about a similar brochure put out by Sainsbury's, which is if anything
worse than the Tesco one. It makes similar misleading claims about
the use of chemicals in organic food, and its "slightly increased"
price. In addition, it claims that organic livestock farming does
not use veterinary medicines, which is untrue. Most damagingly
it contains the allegation that organic foods are "good for
you". This is contained in a paragraph written by the Director
of the Soil Association, and is clearly illegal. My understanding
is that the Authority has written to Sainsbury's asking them to
change all these claims.
I have considerable evidence of other attempts
by the Soil Association and supporters of organic food to suggest
that conventional food is less safe than organic food. Also attached
is a piece headed Right of Reply [not printed] from the Independent
of 12th May, written by the Director of the Soil Association.
Mr Holden asserts that there is "growing evidence of cost
to public health" from "intensive chemical farming".
He also mentions "NHS costs". This is completely without
foundation. If necessary I can provide similar claims to the Committee.
Supermarkets have a commercial interest in puffing
organic food, since independent surveys show that a typical organic
shopping basket costs around 70 per cent more than a conventional
one. This gives a much higher cash flow, which boosts their profits,
and probably increased gross margins too.
The Soil Association also have a vested interest
in misleading consumers into believing that organic food is somehow
better for them. Although the Association is a charity, it has
a commercial subsidiary which gains revenue from certificating
organic farmers for a fee.
These attempts to persuade consumers that organic
food is "safer" and more desirable than conventional
food are, in my view, extremely damaging. There is no proof that
consumers benefit from eating organic food. Indeed there have
been suggestions that the use of animal manure on organic farms
presents a risk of contamination with E.coli 0157. My concern
is that consumers will be conned into believing that organic food
is better for them and will therefore eat less fruit and vegetables
than they otherwise would do, because of the increase in cost.
This is especially true for poorer consumers, who tend to eat
less well than richer people, and who have worse health as a consequence.
The Ministry of Agriculture and the Department of Health have
both stressed the importance of fruit and vegetables in the national
diet. Attempts to mislead consumers about the benefits of organic
food are therefore likely to hurt public health, and increase
health inequalities.

Summoner Spells:
Heal: Ashe is very squishy. If your enemy manages to get up close things can get ugly. Having heal can help with this problem. It has the benefit of healing nearby ally champions too, which in team battles can turn the tide in your favor if timed correctly.
Exhaust: I actually have little experience with this, but am working to fix that. The reason why I put this into the build is two-fold. 1) Offensively- it can be used to slow your target considerably denying them an escape. 2) Defensively- if up against a single foe, you can use this to slow and blind your pursuer, which will help put distance between you and the foe while also giving you a few seconds of damage free escape. However, if trying to escape several foes, this skill is not as effective.
Ghost: Like Exhaust this can be used offensively and defensively, though it is slightly different. Ashe is naturally slow, thus, keeping up with enemies as they run and likewise trying to escape a sticky situation is more difficult. Ghost solves that problem. It has saved me many times and it has also denied my targets escape on several occasions.

Fist Of The North Star: Ken's Rage 2 Review
Fist of the North Star: Ken's Rage 2 is the sort-of-sequel to Fist of the North Star: Ken's Rage. I say 'sort-of' because Ken's Rage 2 includes the entirety of the original game (albeit slightly different combat and some different environments). While that may be good to those hoping to jump in on the ground floor, the sad fact of the matter is that this is not a very good game.
As a Tecmo Koei game, Ken's Rage 2 is so reminiscent of Dynasty Warriors that one could say that they are of the same franchise. The gameplay involves going through the entirety of the Fist of the North Star anime and manga through the lens of a beat-em-up: defeat tons and tons of enemies, move on to the next area, defeat tons and tons of more enemies, and ultimately fight a boss.
There are combos, special moves, and a general leveling system that comes with beating enemies, but even on the harder difficulty, gameplay is reduced to an unenjoyable series of corridors and waves of enemies that are beaten with an equally repetitious combination of button mashing, signature moves, and dodging. Though plenty of series characters are available, none of them fight all that differently. The moves look different, but the characters all generally fight in a similar way, and require the same tactics to defeat bosses. It's not just repetitive for non-fans — it's repetitive for everyone. There is online co-op to mix up the experience, but I could never actually find a game.
Legend Mode is a story mode that follows the entirety of the original Fist of the North Star anime and manga. In addition to all of the stuff from the first game, the sequel includes all of the stuff that happened after as well as a great deal of manga-exclusive chapters that unfortunately aren't very interesting, even as someone who liked the original story. A secondary Dream Mode also exists as a secondary mode, and does a good job of providing all new unique side stories for all of the playable characters. It's more interesting than the Legend Mode, but I only really had fun with the anime characters I actually liked.
Ultimately the game is hindered by poor storytelling. While very faithful to the source material, the story is presented through awful comic-book cutscenes and bland in-game cutscenes. They aren't horrible, but they take no effort to be anything exciting, and instead stand as instances of "oh, and then this happened in the story". Despite this, the bosses are rather well-designed and occasionally fun, something to be expected from a Tecmo Koei game. Unfortunately, the best bosses are the ones that were pasted over from the original Ken's Rage.
Fist of the North Star: Ken's Rage 2 isn't a bad video game. It's dull, repetitive, and does little to improve the original that it so shamelessly borrows content from. If you're a fan, you could definitely do worse. However, I don't think a lack of alternatives is ever a good reason to spend 60 dollars on PSN or Wii U.
Score: 4.5/10

Open Thread: Everything You're Reading, Watching, Listening To and Looking At
This is your place to talk about the TV, movies, music, books and art that are thoroughly entertaining you.
People often ask me if I ever thought about working in television. Wait, sorry, let me clarify: People often ask me why there aren't multiple TV shows based on my amazing life, competing with each other in similar time slots. You know, "Lipstick Jungle" and "Cashmere Mafia."The truth is, I worked on a television show once. Actually, on a couple. After college, I ran away to Hollywood, where I moved into a building directly behind the one where the hooker roommates live in "Pretty Woman." Before I got my first Internet writing gig, I worked a series of thankless, low-level jobs gleaned from the section of UTA job list subheaded "Extra Demeaning."
I was dead broke but I met tons of cool people and still had plenty of time to work on my virtuoso horror comedy about the antichrist*. I was basically that brilliant but cruelly undiscovered violinist from that Jamie Foxx movie but way more talented and more cruelly undiscovered.If you've ever wondered what it's like to work as a PA, receptionist, intern, gopher, editorial assistant, and all-purpose showbiz bitch, I'd like to share with you a few things you should know beforehand.
BOSSES.You will have at least one boss with age-inappropriate facial hair.Taking your visiting mom to the Chateau Marmont for lunch is really fun until you get back to the office and she notices that one of your bosses has hilariously changed your desktop to midget porn.If you work for a television show that specializes in celebrity coverage, you may quit shortly after your boss demands upon hearing of a newly dead person, "Somebody get in a cab and follow that hearse!"Never, ever answer a Craigslist ad to be somebody's assistant that involves going to his house in Encino and being asked to park down the street.If your boss invites you over to his fancy house in the hills, it is bad form to drink so much you fall asleep in his Jacuzzi.You'll be briefly upset when your boss submits that picture of you with pink hair and chola eyebrows to Hottest Hollywood Assistants until you're ranked #7. Then it's flattering!When moving offices, your boss may suggest that you go hire a few migrant workers from outside the Home Depot to help. Donnnnn't do this!
BEING A PRODUCTION ASSISTANTNever ever get Yum Yum donuts. Yum Yum donuts are bullshit.BEING A RECEPTIONISTNobody grabs the door at the exact time you buzz them in. They will wait until you are done buzzing then furiously yank at the door. You will learn to enjoy this. That one crazy lady who always thinks you are hiding her packages turns out to compulsively order vibrators and knives.When actors come in to audition for the production company upstairs but demand to know where their "sides" are, have a script handy for a Massengil commercial. Try to work someplace with a desk big enough to sleep under when you are hungover and pretending to be "at lunch."SCRIPT WORKBrass brads can really cut up your hands. Don't accept freelance formatting work from a crazy Christian guy who wants to make a movie about Christian extreme skateboarders. Wait, no, do, it's hilarious.
Script coverage is really fun on the first day and on the second day you will probably be done with the whole "watching movies" thing.Screenwriters are great lays. All of them. Every last one. Bang them.
Make friends with the smoothie guy!
CELEBRITIESDonny Osmond thinks your name is Julia.Dennis Haskins gives great hugs.If you tell Juicy J a joke and he doesn't think it's funny, he will stare at you for a really long time.Donal Logue is incredibly fucking handsome.Jason Segel is incredibly fucking handsome.Ted Danson is incredibly fucking handsome.When you see Jon Hamm, you will literally temporarily black out from his beauty.

Dr. Bucshon Releases First 2012 Campaign Ad
The Bucshon for Congress campaign has released their first television commercial of the 2012 campaign and will begin airing district-wide on April 4th.
The thirty second commercial focuses on Dr. Larry Bucshon's record of opposition to Obamacare and wasteful deficit spending under President Barack Obama. Additionally, the ad highlights Dr. Bucshon's strong conservative record, background as a heart surgeon, and pro-life values.
"Do no harm. As a heart surgeon, it's an oath Dr. Larry Bucshon upheld and it's the principle that guides the pro-life conservative. Larry Bucshon leads the fight to repeal Obamacare and preserve Medicare for seniors, to protect your right to see the doctor of your choice. And, Larry Bucshon fights to cut wasteful spending because Obama's record debt harms our children's future."

As parents we are faced with so many choices, and so much input on what is and isn't good for our kids on Holidays, and let's be real, I dread a lot of holidays.
We have to think about sugar consumption, over-stimulation, allergies, appropriate costumes, road-side safety, etc. Isn't it a heavy burden? So let's simplify.
For the last four years we have engaged in two awesome traditions. The first is Team costumes. We made Halloween a chance for attachment and belonging. So for the last few years we pick costumes out as a team. So here are a few versions of team costumes by us.
But for me all the holidays bring up the issue of being enough. I know they shouldn't I know none of these days are really about me. But it is so hard to face holidays without some comparison. Did I make enough treats? Am I still a good mom if I don't make it to even one of my kids Halloween parties? Is it okay that I bought all my costumes on Amazon because I don't have time to sew them? I want to move through this day with a little grace, and if I fail am I still okay?
On days like today when I fell out of bed at six, kissed the little kiddos who climbed into my bed, got my daughter going on breakfast, and got in the shower. Only to realize I forgot a towel, and conditioner (Because it was out and I hadn't refilled it), then growled through breakfast, and mended a few costumes with hot glue, before running out the door to work, it is hard to think that is enough.
I want to be the mom who made cookies, warmed cider, read stories, cuddled them closer, shared romantic smiles with my husband around the teenage eye rolls.
I missed the costume parade. That one hurts the most. And it's stupid that it hurts.But I know they wanted me there. And I have honestly only ever helped with One, yep just one, school party in my whole life. And I loved it. But I have to be at the office, typing these things on my breaks, to take care of my little people. They forgive me. I just don't as well.
So to myself, and to you working mommies out there, and you stay-at-homes who are swamped, it's okay. We didn't make it this year. WE ARE good, we love our kids, we hope the best for them. They are our team. And even if I never make it to another class party, I am good enough. Even if I only get to make warm cider for my grandkids, it's enough. Even if I growl more than I should, we will laugh about it later.
For now, let's simplify, they went to school in a team costume, knowing they belong together, with us. And that momma is enough. That is extra ordinary. I don't care how much sugar they eat today. I will feed them good food tomorrow. And give them vitamins, because I am a good momma. Extra-ordinary is enough for me to love myself. And by loving myself, and forgiving me for what I haven't done, I will be a better mother, and a better person.

Your input is important to us. Please provide your valuable feedback. Here are some testimonials from our clients:
Mr. Bologna,
Thank you very much for all your help this past week with the ECU upgrade for my ML. I was very impressed with the turnaround time, and I am very pleased with the results. I will be sure to remember RENNtech well in the future. I appreciate your time and efforts.
Best Regards,
Posted By: RENNtech
Hi John,
First I would like to thank you for all your help in getting the ECU upgrade with BMC filters to my GL450. What a difference in performance the upgrade has made. The acceleration and torque after the tune was completely unexpected. The average mpg now is around 18.5 @ 80mph and I am able to get sometimes 20-21mpg driving at 70mph! I am extremely happy with the upgrade and I'm highly recommending you and RENNtech to all my German (MB, BMW, Audi, and Porsche) friends!
Thanks again,
Ali S.

well done to you and your team at Renntech for exceptional service! I drove my G63 AMG today after the Renntech ECU upgrade with BMC filters and it's a beast! The tune exceeded my expectations, it's completely docile and silky smooth around town but step on the gas and it rips. The monstrous torque is addictive; hard to believe there is such a big improvement on an already fantastic M157 motor. Thank you Mitchell for taking the time to discuss the upgrade and answer all my questions before moving forward on the tune. You're a enthusiast that knows your product and it was a first class experience for me from start to finish. I would highly recommend you and your team at Renntech!
Kind Regards

Big Shout Out to RENNtech! I worked with John and had shipped and re-installed with the M278 Tune for my 2013 GL450. It is amazing. During normal subdued driving in 45mph zones you just glide along. You never really have to get the RPMs over 3K or use much motr than 40% throttle. I find it easiest to just set the cruise and bump it up and down by 5 mph. Super easy to manage heavy traffic, I leave it in D and it just wonderful! On I-540 heading to Research Triangle, where traffic routinely runs 80+, my GL is right at home in 7th gear. My only mileage check was on a pretty spirited 351 mile round trip from RTP to Gaston County, NC and back. Avg.speed was 69 mph, and mileage was 18.2! I was very impressed with the customer service, especially with questions I had after the tune was installed. I am 100% pleased with the decision to go with RENNtech!!

Just worked with John B on an ECU tune for my E63s and am seriously blown away at the performance difference! Power increase for the dollar is an insane value! Easy instructions and very helpful along the way.
Now saving up for downpipes and mufflers!

(...)I also want to thank Renntech for coordinating everything on my behalf. Not only did they respond back to my e-mail on Sunday, they called me first thing Monday morning to setup an appointment with Axels Automotive, local Renntech dealer to replace the spark plugs as the first step in troubleshooting. The service didn't stop there. After I picked up the car, I received a follow up call from Renntech. This was around 6pm local time. While I didn't expect this level of service, it was much appreciated and I'm very happy with my choice.

Good morning Mitchell,
I spent quite a bit of time in the car this weekend and I thought I would share a few impressions. I like the exhaust note from the mufflers as it is just what I was looking for. Deep tone, not too loud, lets you know it's there without being overbearing. Along with the air filters I can tell the car "breathes" much better.
I am quite impressed with the increase in performance. My right foot is still being re-trained as having driven the car for 8 months now, my right foot had become accustomed to pressing down certain amounts for different effects.
Now, I have no aspirations to race or take the car out to a track and I don't care that much about Dyno values (except for maybe bragging rights). What I do care about is how the car has become more fun to drive and that's the bottom line.
Mercedes made this Mille Miglia edition with aesthetic additions and for the life of me I couldn't understand why they didn't add some performance upgrades as well. I now feel RennTech has enabled this car to be the car it should have been all along.
I am thinking that maybe mounting the RennTech badges I might gain another 10 HP?
Thanks for taking the time to answer all my questions and being extremely vigilant and helpful through the process.
Best regards,
Steve Pummill

Mark S,
Thank you again for your help with my ECU tune. Pulled the ECU on Monday and had it installed by noon on Wednesday! The engine is now a true beast!! Could not ask for a better experience.
All the best,
Posted By: RENNtech
I wanted to follow up with you in regards to the tune you guys performed on the S63AMG on Feb. 4th!
Simply Amazing!
The car does triple digits without even trying. I find myself constantly cruising at 93mph and feels as if I'm doing 65mph
Thanks again, John

Happy Thanksgiving to you and the family. I would like to express my extreme satisfaction at the quality of customer service you extended me with my CLA 45 project (turbo upgrade with diverter valve, ECU upgrade, and downpipe). Renntech might have just hit a home run with this car. This car has become a whole new machine. It begs to be pushed and I know I will oblige as I enjoy this further. I will certainly recommend any of this upgrade to my fellow '45 owners. The price of admission is reasonable especially for a reputable outfit like Renntech. I look forward to possible new upgrades to make an excellent car superlative in every aspect. Thank you very much!

San Diego, CA (PRWEB) January 16, 2013
Burgeoning San Diego singer-songwriter Cody Lovaas will be playing a free show on January 22 at 3:30pm for the Great Kindness Challenge and Kids for Peace taking place at San Diego's New Children's Museum. The Great Kindness Challenge seeks to increase tolerance and respect across campuses from kindergarten to high school, while the Kids For Peace non-profit encourages children to spread unity through cross-cultural experiences, hands-on arts, service and environmental projects. The Great Kindness Challenge Celebration and Awards Ceremony will be hosted by Fox 5 News' Raoul Martinez, with Mayor Bob Filner on hand to present the awards.
The SHOEBACCA- sponsored Cody Lovaas has played a string of charity events in recent months for the Make-A-Wish Foundation, The National MS Society, Ronald McDonald House, Relay for Life and YMCA Spin-a-thon. He is currently working on his debut album with Grammy-winning engineer/producer Alan Sanderson, who has recorded with everyone from Elvis Costello to Fleetwood Mac. Click this link to watch a live version of Lovaas' latest song, "What a Freak", dedicated to the plight of the homeless.
Dallas-born, San Diego-raised singer-songwriter Cody Lovaas has discovered a voice and pure direction that make it hard to believe he's not even old enough to legally drive a car. His preferred means of travel is a surfboard, which carries him through crystalline days along the Pacific Coast. Influenced by artists such as Amos Lee and Jack Johnson, the 14-year-old Lovaas seamlessly combines his love for music and surf into fluid blues-imbued acoustic machinations. Also a skilled ukulele player, Lovaas is beginning to carve out the early stages of a signature sound.
In the fall of 2012, Lovaas entered high school and began recording his debut full-length with Grammy-winning engineer/producer Alan Sanderson. The blossoming young artist, whose chops have landed him a host of prominent sponsorships, sings of the vast ocean and contentment in the present moment, an oft-forgotten philosophy for those dwelling on the errors of yesterday and fearing the trials of tomorrow. He channels the island aesthetic of IZ via tracks like "In the Blink of an Eye" and conveys a big heart through songs such as "Just Care", which he penned in response to classmates who were exhibiting troubling self-destructive behavior.
Lovaas' straightforward folk soundscape has drawn praise from local airwaves all the way to Radio Prime Norway. He has played the House of Blues, Anaheim Stadium and Oceanside Amphitheater and shared the stage with the likes of the Dan Band and the Spazmatics. Humble and borderline shy between songs, he bristles with confidence once he strums the guitar he has been playing since the age of seven and croons his original tunes and astute covers such as Ray LaMontagne's "Trouble".
The songs of Cody Lovaas exude a maturity betraying his mere 14 cycles of the sun. He does not waste his breath on the trite gimmickry one may have come to expect from vocalists of his generation. Lovaas recognizes his fortunate place in the world and the life he gets to live while speaking from a genuine core and reminding us of the stress-free days of youth.
To hear more of his music and stay up to date on live shows, visit CodyLovaas.com.
SHOEBACCA.com got its humble beginnings when two community-minded brothers started selling name-brand athletic shoes to underprivileged families at local neighborhood markets. Along with those early grass-roots efforts, they shipped truckloads of shoes primarily to third-world countries where the need was greatest. This became the inspiration for SHOEBACCA.com, a leader in the online footwear retail market, offering thousands of styles of athletic and athletic-inspired shoes, gear and accessories at competitive prices.
SHOEBACCA.com supports various youth organizations and charities, including Soles4Souls, American Cancer Society Relay for Life, Salvation Army, National MS Society, and The Boys and Girls Clubs of America. In addition, SHOEBACCA.com assembled an 80-rider volunteer cycling team, which participates in events like the Bike MS Bay to Bay Tour. The team has raised over $70,000 in total donations to help cure MS, and continues to ride at various charity events across the country.

Benjamin Arellano Félix, the former leader of Tijuana's most notorious drug cartel, pleaded guilty in federal court Wednesday to racketeering and money laundering conspiracy charges.
Arrellano Felix plea deal
Arellano, 58, now faces a maximum sentence of 25 years in federal prison, according to the plea agreement worked out by the U.S. Attorney's Office in San Diego with his lawyers.
Federal prosecutors declined to comment on the deal, including why they agreed to a prison term that is far lighter than others in the Arellano Félix Organization have received.
But U.S. Attorney Laura Duffy, who brought cases against major cartel leaders before becoming the top federal prosecutor in San Diego in 2010, hailed the outcome for essentially putting a cap on a 25-year pursuit by federal law enforcement of Arellano and the drug organization he led along with his brothers.
"Today's guilty plea marks the end of his reign of murder, mayhem and corruption, and his historic admission of guilt sends a clear message to the Mexican cartel leaders operating today: the United States will spare no effort to investigate, extradite, and prosecute you for your criminal activities," said Duffy in a statement.
During Wednesday's hearing, Arellano stood with his hands clasped behind his back and answered question from U.S. District Judge Larry Burns. He admitted to a litany of crimes, including distributing untold tons of drugs between 1986 and 2002, laundering the huge profits that came from the dealing, and being the leader of the organization.
That reign effectively ended in 2002 when he was arrested in Mexico. He was extradited to the United States last April and now is scheduled to be sentenced by Burns on April 2.
In addition to possibly spending 25 years in prison, Arellano also will have to forfeit under the plea agreement $100 million, proceeds from the sprawling and lethal cartel that bribed government officials, and kidnapped and killed enemies along the U.S.-Mexico border.
Before agreeing to plead guilty, Arellano was facing a minimum sentence of 40 years and a potential maximum of 140 years, said his lawyer, Anthony Colombo Jr. He will likely have to serve at least 20 years of a 25-year sentence before becoming eligible for release.
Among the cartel members who received longer prison terms than Arellano faces is his brother Francisco Javier Arellano Félix. He is serving a life sentence after pleading guilty in 2007 to racketeering and money laundering charges. The cartel's chief financial manager, Jesus "Chuy" Labra Avilés, is serving a 40-year sentence in federal prison after pleading guilty in 2009 to conspiracy to distribute cocaine and marijuana.
Several factors came into play in reaching Benjamin Arellano's plea agreement, Colombo said. Among them was that prosecutors had lined up some 21 cooperating witnesses — many of them, like Labra, former associates who had pleaded guilty in exchange for a possible reduction in their prison terms in the future.
That meant the testimony of those witnesses could be compromised, Colombo said, because of their deals to cooperate with prosecutors. It also meant the government would be in the unwelcome position of having to seek reductions in prison terms for convicted drug traffickers, he said.
"I think they evaluated also the time and expense it would take to try a case of this magnitude," Colombo said in an interview outside the federal court building.
John Kirby, a former federal prosecutor who worked on the investigation, said Arellano's potential sentence appears light, but the case relied heavily on testimony from individual witnesses instead of wiretap phone calls, other electronically recorded conversations or even physical evidence.
Those witnesses could get "cold feet" or be arrested on other charges, compromising their effectiveness, Kirby said.
David Shirk, director of the Trans-Border Institute at the University of San Diego, said Arellano's guilty plea is historic, but the pursuit of the cartel has done little to stem the flow of drugs.
"It's certainly a big deal they were able to get Benjamin. It's a major victory," Shirk said. "On the other hand, what's been accomplished since he was taken down?"
He said the supply of drugs into the U.S. has not decreased as other cartels have taken the place of the Arellano Félix group.
The Sinaloa Cartel, Mexico's most powerful drug-trafficking group, has made steady gains and is acknowledged as the dominant organization operating in the region.
Though Duffy said in August 2010 that the Arellano Félix Organization "no longer exists," law enforcement authorities in Mexico say vestiges of the cartel continue to operate in the region, led by Fernando Sanchez Arellano, a nephew of the brothers.
Last year, 43 members of that organization were indicted on racketeering charges in federal court in San Diego. A trial for nearly half of them is set for February.Copyright © 2018, The San Diego Union-Tribune

Let's lighten things up a little because I need some levity.
My mother in law is one of those email forwarding people. I'm always getting those "THIS MIGHT SAVE YOUR LIFE" notifications from her. You know the sort of email--keep your old pantyhose (yeah, because I've got them just strewn about the house right now) because some lady in Saskatchewan saved her child's life with an old pair of L'eggs.
Of course, since I'm mean, I look them up on snopes, or other myth buster sites, and point out, replying ALL, how the email is incorrect (this drives my friends crazy, to whom I say "then stop sending me crap.")
I got a text message from her yesterday that said this:
"Just saw a news release about a toy named FLOAM that is dangerously growing mold--KEEP OUR BOY SAFE!!!"
To which I responded:
"It's ok, we don't believe in buying Guille toys. He can play with the chemicals under the sink or he can play with nothing."

HAHAHA! I used to do that TOO, but my friends got tired of my sending links from snopes to them, so they actually STOPPED sending me crap. That is hilarious! I love snopes so much because it has helped reduce the amount of stupid crap I get from people. Also, one time, I sent out an email to everyone in my contacts list saying something like, "I don't even want any of the feel-good stories, ESPECIALLY if they tell me I don't love Jesus if I don't forward it to 10 people." I show Jesus I love him by not being stupid.

When that happens to me, I then reply to the person and tell them to remove me off their e-mail list. I can pretty much bet you that everyone else on the forward list already KNOWS that the e-mail is a spoof.
Seriously--you have no idea how much that tweaks my cheeks....thank you for getting me all riled up.

Just today I got one about roaming gangs of carjackers, and the very complicated scheme they will use to steal my car. (I love Snopes.)

My favorite one lately was the email telling us to keep our car keys next to our bed to foil intruders. You can hit the panic button on your remote key and scare off the intruder with the loud, unexpected noise.
I emailed my MIL back and thanked her for reminding me that I own a car that has power nothing--including a key that is an actual key with nothing special on it. Guess I'm probably going to be assaulted or die because of my vehicular age.

I have Snopes on my home page. I love reading the stuff that goes around. I can actually tell how many forwards I am getting by how many of the stories I recgnize.
I hadn't heard the car alarm one. I guess that only works if you live in a house.

I hadn't heard the Floam one. But I did hear that the Swiffer Jet can cause death in pets and infants. What does Snope say about that one?
Btw, your convo with your MIL reminds me of the commercial with the family dinner and the old man asks the younger woman to pass the gravy, and she says, "Sure. Can you speak when spoken to?" hahaha

Iain Duncan Smith hails success of benefit cap as evictions hit record levels

Iain Duncan Smith hails success of benefit cap as evictions hit record levels
Iain Duncan Smith has hailed the success of the benefit cap – on the same day that the Ministry of Justice reported a record number evictions among renting households.
The Work and Pensions Secretary said the cap provided "a clear incentive to people to get into work", as figures showed thousands of capped households were now claiming working tax credits instead.
But Shelter chief executive Campbell Robb said the government's welfare cuts combined with "sky-high housing costs" had forced thousands of people out of their homes.
According to the latest figures from the Department of Work and Pensions, 23,100 households had their housing benefit capped during February with over 60% being single parent families.
Of the overall total, 83% were capped by £100 or less a week; 59% had between one and four children, and 63% were a single parent with child dependants.

Evictions of rental tenants hit a record high as homeless charity Shelter calls for Government to act
Street Democracy writes:
The Tory's dynamic force of bullying expeditions shunting the poor from place to place is a monumental mechanism to disempower, humiliate and trash further the poorest from society.
Home's for the poverty stricken are temporary short term glorified B & B's, in fact you needn't bother unpacking.
Volleying evil and smashing it down upon the poorest is social and political disempowerment as the 'dissposses cannot reign', minds full of survival techniques there isn't room for much else.
The elegant rape of the minds of the poorest, with stress and evictions, with homelessness, with no money for a place to live, assassinates the character of those financially struggling to survive.
A bombardment of red 'you owe money' letters, hostile dialogues with no empathy is nothing more than 'evil in print' land in your home as a warrantless invasion, a forced intimacy of unwelcoming into your home.
Homes become dark eerie frightening places with evictions hanging over your head. You cannot relax, you feel unwelcome and your dignity is not sacred. Life is boxed and placed in black bin liners.
The uncertainty is agony. A true cataclysmic shattering of the self, who you are, with no stability and social expulsion from society as a temporary homeless person or family of the under class.
Iain Duncan 'soulless suit' Smith, will devour the low income earners, the unemployed and disabled people as a form of ethnic cleansing to price the poor out of areas and richer tenants in.
He has no conscience and is morally bankrupt for certain.

Clipse…Legendary…out of VA. One of the best groups from a lyrical standpoint to ever do it. And I quote from the debut "We smirked at the Simpson trial, yea the chase was wild but what the f*cking fuss about."
The Thornton brothers over Neptunes' beats were unstoppable. Since then, the duo has gone solo, Pusha with Kanye, and No Malice with his Re-Up crew.
No Malice has been making headlines since his music began to reflect his religious views. How will the public and the music industry respond? By the looks of Hear Ye Him's production credits — Chad Hugo (Neptunes), S1, Illmind, and Profound Sounds — every is still eager to collaborate. The album's production is A+ all around.
There's "Blasphemy" which can be summed up in one word: FIRE. Scratching over the drums and simple beats lets Malice flow effortlessly like waves: "Show me ten kingpins, I'll show you ten snitches". And yes, it continues with "Unforgettable" over quick cut synths, "It's identity fraud the way I hear my all in your bars".
Hear Ye Him isn't to far removed for the old Malice, comprised of introspective flows on the drug game, and its repercussions on one's self and family. There are no filler hooks here. Rhymes are intelligent and concise, and they cut like a knife. The same high caliber raps The Clipse were known for are on this album. On "Shame The Devil", No Malice spits "I too was a derelict, but the truth raised me from the dead when I became aware of it".
Hear Ye Him has quotables for days.
Only downside here, too many interludes! I want more bars. No Malice did not disappoint here. An excellent solo effort and I hope it is not the last.

President Barack Obama gave the opening speech Tuesday for a star-studded concert, "In Performance at the White House: Memphis Soul." The President put on his campaign-trail southern drawl, giving a shout-out to pop star Justin Timberlake to congratulate him for his marriage to actress Jessica Biel, before telling the audience about the importance of Memphis Soul music during the Civil Rights Movement.
"Tonight I am speaking not just as President but as one of America's best-known Al Green impersonators," he joked. "I have a new appreciation for what Al once said about the Memphis Soul sound that he helped create: 'We don't even know ourselves how that music has endured for so long.'"
Obama told the story of the genre's pioneers "kept playing music that everybody could get into. They created a whole new sound, and as they did, they broke down barriers."
He concluded by introducing Sam Moore of Same & Dave to play their hit "Soul Man" with former American Idol contestant Joshua Ledet.

Story and Photos by Heifer Ukraine Staff
An opening ceremony was held for Ukraines first milk-processing cooperative plant, Molochnyi krai, in Chernivtsi oblast on October 23, 2012.
The enterprise was established by Hospodar Pidhiria, a union of agricultural service cooperatives, within the framework of the Dairy Sector Development in Bukovyna Region project, implemented by Heifer Ukraine and supported by local authorities.
The cooperative milk-processing enterprise, with production capacity of 12 tons of milk per shift, is located in Panka village, Storozhynets raion. The reconstruction to install milk-processing equipment started in 2011 and is now completed, with the equipment purchased and installed. This is the first cooperative milk processing facility in Ukraine owned directly by the smallholders, the milk producers.
The goal of the project is to increase the income of individual raw milk producers by involving them in the processing and marketing of dairy products through the co-op enterprise, thus providing them with added value.
The project is an example of a successful public-private partnership, with the rural communities receiving support not only from Heifer Ukraine, but from local budgets as well. The Chernivtsi Oblast council allocated $100,000 for the project, and $48,000 was received from the Storozhynets raion state administration. A contribution equivalent to $72,000, in the form of co-op members shares, enabled the union to launch the enterprise.
Support from the local authorities is crucial for the successful work of the milk-processing enterprise. The cooperative milk plant will supply products to local schools, kindergartens and hospitals, which are financed from government funds. This arrangement will guarantee sales of about 50 percent of the dairy products, and on the other reduce government spending because of lower prices.
The milk will be supplied by the rural families in the Hospodar Pidhiria union. Eight additional milk collection centers are planned to open in the neighboring villages. This will allow processing the expected volume of high-quality milk and increasing the income of the local individual milk producers who established this enterprise.
On November 4, 2012, the enterprise was visited by Heifer International representatives Steve Denne, Chief Operating Officer, and Cindy Jones-Nyland, Executive Vice President of Marketing and Resource Development. They had the chance to communicate with members and leaders of the co-ops as well as with the director of the co-op processing enterprise and his staff. It was a good chance to observe the production process and taste the first product of that enterprisefresh local cheese called Brynza. In addition, a variety of other dairy products will be launched this month including packaged raw milk, sour cream and in a few months the enterprise will scale up from processing of three tons of milk to up to 12 tons. The guests were extremely satisfied and impressed by the results achieved by the community launching the enterprise.

Post subject: Penguins welcome the St. Louis Blues on Sunday.
BARCELONA, Spain -- Neymar scored a Champions League hat trick in a 6-1 rout of Celtic on Wednesday to help Barcelona forget about Lionel Messi -- for one night at least.
Ken Daneyko Jersey
. Gerard Pique, Pedro Rodriguez, and Cristian Tello also scored for Group H winners Barcelona, while Giorgos Samara added a late consolation goal for Celtic, which finished last in the group. With Messi sidelined by a hamstring injury, Neymar was finally able to take command of a Barcelona attack which has passed through the boots of the Argentina forward for so many years. On Wednesday at the Camp Nou, it was Neymars feet which did the talking as he finally scored in Europes elite competition. "I dont feel pressure but, still, I should score," Neymar said. After Piques seventh-minute opener got the Spanish champions going, Neymar used some masterful dribbling to throw off defender Efe Ambrose with his change of rhythm before cutting a pass back into the box for Pedro to direct home in the 40th. The Brazil forward was able to tap home his first goal since Nov. 10 four minutes later after Alexis Sanchez lifted a ball over Celtics defence to meet Marc Montoyas run, and the Spanish fullback slid it back for an easy goal. Neymar showed no problems handling Barcelonas slick combination capabilities as he backheeled to Xavi Hernandez who returned on to his run through the defence, and Neymar sent a rising shot into the corner as he slipped to the ground in the 48th. "I wouldnt say some players gave up but it certainly looked that way at times," said Celtic coach Neil Lennon. "A lot of half-hearted performances and, as a manager, that was the most disappointing aspect of the whole game." Ambrose was caught out again in the 58th. Neymars stepover created space before he used his other foot to slide the ball through the big defenders legs, get into the box and then beat Forster. Neymar nearly had a fourth in the 65th as he beat the offside trap to go in alone on Forster, only to dabble too long looking for a shot and his run collided with Pedro, who took a shot that was saved. Forster could only watch as Tello, who returned from injury to replace Sanchez, tried a shot that deflected high and into goal in the 72nd minute. "I hope, with this game tonight, that weve put to rest any doubts about our play," Pedro said. Barcelona, which rested Andres Iniesta, rebounded from a 2-1 loss to Ajax to finish top of the standings with 13 points. AC Milan also advanced after drawing 0-0 against Ajax to finish second. "Whats important is weve overcome two straight losses and that can change things for us as we concentrate on the league," Neymar said after taking his season goal tally to seven.

. The agreement comes a little more than one week after the video game manufacturer agreed to a $40 million settlement in a similar but separate case, bringing the total payout planned for athletes to $60 million, said Steve Berman, an attorney for the plaintiffs, and the NCAA.

. He scored two highlight-reel goals in a three-minute span -- the second on a sideways bicycle kick in the 78th minute -- to give the Whitecaps a 2-2 draw with the Portland Timbers before a crowd of 20,303 at B.PITTSBURGH -- James Neals power-play goal 1:27 into overtime lifted the Pittsburgh Penguins to a wild 4-3 victory over the Tampa Bay Lightning on Saturday. Neals slapshot over Anders Lindbacks right shoulder capped a frantic final 15 minutes of play as the teams traded the lead three times. Evgeni Malkin had two goals and two assists while Sidney Crosby added a goal and two assists for the Penguins, who have won nine straight over the Lightning. Jeff Zatkoff stopped 21 shots and Pittsburgh ended Tampa Bays five-game winning streak. Steven Stamkos, Valtteri Filppula and Ondrej Palat scored for the Lightning, who have recorded at least one point in eight straight games. Lindback made 25 saves but had no chance on Neals 23rd goal of the season. The teams spent two periods playing the kind of conservative hockey more suited for the Stanley Cup playoffs than the wide-open attacking style more fitting for two of the most offensively talented teams in the league. No matter, they made up for it in the third. Stamkos broke a 1-1 tie 8:17 into the final period when he poked a rebound underneath Zatkoffs legs to put the Lightning in front. The lead lasted less than three minutes, as Malkin pounced on a rebound off a Matt Niskanen slapshot into an open net for his third goal in two games. Malkins 23th of the season came with 3:17 left in regulation when he powered a shot by Lindback that seemed to deflate the Lightning. It did, but only momentarily. Palat stunned the 319th consecutive sellout crowd at Consol Energy Center when he cleanly beat Zatkoff to tie the game at 3 with just 1:22 left in regulatiion.
Joseph Blandisi Devils Jersey
. Tampa Bay gave the leagues top-ranked power play a chance to end it when the Lightning were called for too many men on the ice 1:11 into overtime. The Penguins needed just 16 seconds to win it as Malkin set up Neal in the forwards favourite spot at the top of the left circle. The puck was a blur as it sailed into the net as Pittsburgh bounced back from a 5-4 overtime loss to Detroit on Thursday when the Red Wings scored on a bounce off a Penguins defenceman with less than a second to go in overtime. The Lightning have been the hottest team in hockey not named the Boston Bruins since Stamkos return from a leg injury last month. Fueled by their star -- and his elevation to captain after Martin St. Louis was traded to the New York Rangers -- Tampa Bay has sprinted to third in the Eastern Conference standings. They certainly looked like one of the conferences elite while trying to end a lengthy bout of futility against Pittsburgh. Tampa Bay clogged the neutral zone and seemed to have the upper hand at times when the teams were playing at full strength. Seven penalties, however, did them in. The Penguins went 3 for 6 on the power play. NOTES: Penguins coach Dan Bylsma said theres a "possibility" goaltender Tomas Vokoun could play before the beginning of the post-season, though it seems unlikely. Vokoun has been out since training camp while recovering from a blood clots. ... Zatkoff picked up the first point of his NHL career with the secondary assist on Crosbys goal. ... The Lightning host the New York Islanders on Monday while the Penguins welcome the St. Louis Blues on Sunday.

My Real Estate Philosophy –
Real Estate is everywhere; literally, it is every place that you can be. Whether private, like our homes and businesses, or public like our parks, municipal buildings, or infrastructure, you can't go anywhere without being impacted by real estate. Having been born and raised in Chicago, I have both types of 'mid-west' perspectives. Living in Denver for the greater half of my life has taught me how to get things done in Denver. I apply skills that I learned in my 6 years of practicing real estate, 4 years earning my degree at the University of Denver, along with my post-graduate 8 year endeavor of starting a successful off campus Deli known as The Treehouse Café. I believe that Denver is a growing metropolis with lots to offer its many residents. Having lived through the past 20 years of its 'growing pains,' I understand the amazing transformation and difference that we make! I'm always looking to improve our city and make it a better place to live work and play! We all help to shape the growth of our city through constant effort one home, business, and park at a time.
My Approach to Real Estate –
To give the best service that I possibly can in every situation. This means going above and beyond the requirements of my job. Whether it's meeting with you after hours, picking up some paperwork from your home, or helping you find a reputable contractor, I'll do whatever I can to make this transaction easier for you and your family. You can count on me to listen to your needs and help you get what is most important to you. Many times this includes using my vast network of relationships that I've built throughout the years to find something special or unique to you. No two transactions are the same and my goal is to minimize the problems and stress that you may face during such a big life change.

One leg at a time... for over three millenia
World's Oldest Pair of Pants Found
(Newser) – Archaeologists working at an ancient graveyard in western China have unearthed what they say is the oldest pair of pants ever found, reports Science News. In fact, they found two pairs, and the clothing items are not only functional but relatively stylish. The wool pants were found with the remains of two men, each about 40, who lived as many as 3,300 years ago and likely rode horses long distances, based on the riding gear that was placed in the tomb.
