The underlined passage there is flat out wrong -- the Catholic church did not "change the Sabbath", and explicitly says so in the Catechism. The Jewish Sabbath is still what it was, just as the Judaic Law of Leviticus, for example, is still what it was.
2174 Jesus rose from the dead "on the first day of the week."104 Because it is the "first day," the day of Christ's Resurrection recalls the first creation. Because it is the "eighth day" following the sabbath,105 it symbolizes the new creation ushered in by Christ's Resurrection. For Christians it has become the first of all days, the first of all feasts, the Lord's Day (he kuriake hemera, dies dominica) Sunday:
2175 Sunday is expressly distinguished from the sabbath which it follows chronologically every week; for Christians its ceremonial observance replaces that of the Sabbath . In Christ's Passover, Sunday fulfills the spiritual truth of the Jewish sabbath and announces man's eternal rest in God. For worship under the Law prepared for the mystery of Christ, and what was done there prefigured some aspects of Christ
2176 The celebration of Sunday observes the moral commandment inscribed by nature in the human heart to render to God an outward, visible, public, and regular worship "as a sign of his universal beneficence to all."109 Sunday worship fulfills the moral command of the Old Covenant, taking up its rhythm and spirit in the weekly celebration of the Creator and Redeemer of his people.
2177 The Sunday celebration of the Lord's Day and his Eucharist is at the heart of the Church's life. "Sunday is the day on which the paschal mystery is celebrated in light of the apostolic tradition and is to be observed as the foremost holy day of obligation in the universal Church.
2180 The precept of the Church specifies the law of the Lord more precisely: "On Sundays and other holy days of obligation the faithful are bound to participate in the Mass."117 "The precept of participating in the Mass is satisfied by assistance at a Mass which is celebrated anywhere in a Catholic rite either on the holy day or on the evening of the preceding day." [i.e make sure it is evening, do not keep Sabbath]
2182 Participation in the communal celebration of the Sunday Eucharist is a testimony of belonging and of being faithful to Christ and to his Church. The faithful give witness by this to their communion in faith and charity. Together they testify to God's holiness and their hope of salvation. They strengthen one another under the guidance of the Holy Spirit.
2185 On Sundays and other holy days of obligation, the faithful are to refrain from engaging in work or activities that hinder the worship owed to God, the joy proper to the Lord's Day, the performance of the works of mercy, and the appropriate relaxation of mind and body.123 Family needs or important social service can legitimately excuse from the obligation of Sunday rest. The faithful should see to it that legitimate excuses do not lead to habits prejudicial to religion, family life, and health
2190 The sabbath, which represented the completion of the first creation, has been replaced by Sunday which recalls the new creation inaugurated by the Resurrection of Christ.
Vatican.va Catechism
From this we may understand how great is the authority of the church in interpreting or explaining to us the commandments of God - an authority which is acknowledged by the universal practice of the whole Christian world, even of those sects which profess to take the holy Scriptures as their sole rule of faith, since they observe as the day of rest not the seventh day of the week demanded by the Bible, but the first day. Which we know is to be kept holy, only from the tradition and teaching of the Catholic church." — Henry Gibson, Catechism Made Easy, #2, 9th edition, vol. 1, p. 341-342.
Sunday is founded not on Scripture, but on tradition, and is a distinctly Catholic institution."
- Catholic Record Sept. 17, 1893 .
The New Testament makes no explicit mention that the apostles changed the day of worship, but we know it from tradition." - The New Revised Baltimore Catechism (1949) p.139
"Question. What warrant have you for keeping Sunday preferably to the ancient sabbath which was Saturday?
"Answer. We have for it the authority of the Catholic church and apostolic tradition.
"Question. Does the Scripture anywhere command the Sunday to be kept for the Sabbath?
"Answer. The Scripture commands us to hear the church (St.Matt.18:17; St. Luke 10:16), and to hold fast the traditions of the apostles. 2 Thess 2:15. But the Scripture does not in particular mention this change of the Sabbath.
"St John speaks of the Lord's day (Rev 1:10) but he does not tell us what day of the week that was, much less does he tell us what day was to take the place of the Sabbath ordained in the commandments. St.Luke speaks of the disciples meeting together to break bread on the first day of the week. Acts 20:7. And St. Paul (1 Cor.16:2) orders that on the first day of the week the Corinthians should lay in store what they designated to bestow in charity on the faithful in Judea: but neither the one or the other tells us that this first day of the week was to be henceforth a day of worship, and the Christian Sabbath; so that truly the best authority we have for this ancient custom is the testimony of the church. And therefore those who pretend to be such religious observers of Sunday, whilst they take no notice of other festivals ordained by the same church authority, show that they act more by humor, than by religion; since Sundays and holidays all stand upon the same foundation, namely the ordinance of the (Roman Catholic) church." — Catholic Christian Instructed, 17th edition, p. 272-273.
Is Saturday the seventh day according to the Bible and the Ten Commandments? I answer yes.
Is Sunday the first day of the week and did the Church change the seventh day - Saturday - for Sunday, the first day? I answer yes. Did Christ change the day'? I answer no!"
"Faithfully yours, J. Card. Gibbons." — James Cardinal Gibbons, Archbishop of Baltimore, Md. (1877-1921), in a signed letter.
"Question - Which is the Sabbath day?
"Answer - Saturday is the Sabbath day.
"Question - Why do we observe Sunday instead of Saturday?
"Answer - We observe Sunday instead of Saturday because the Catholic Church, in the Council of Laodicea (A.D. 364), transferred the solemnity from Saturday to Sunday." — Rev. Peter Geiermann, C.S.S.R., The Convert's Catechism of Catholic Doctrine, p. 50, 3rd edition, 1957.
"Regarding the change from the observance of the Jewish Sabbath to the Christian Sunday, I wish to draw your attention to the facts:
"1) That Protestants, who accept the Bible as the only rule of faith and religion, should by all means go back to the observance of the Sabbath. The fact that they do not, but on the contrary observe the Sunday, stultifies them in the eyes of every thinking man.
"2) We Catholics do not accept the Bible as the only rule of faith. Besides the Bible we have the living Church, the authority of the Church, as a rule to guide us. We say, this Church, instituted by Christ to teach and guide man through life, has the right to change the ceremonial laws of the Old Testament and hence, we accept her change of the Sabbath to Sunday. We frankly say, yes, the Church made this change, made this law, as she made many other laws, for instance, the Friday abstinence, the unmarried priesthood, the laws concerning mixed marriages, the regulation of Catholic marriages and a thousand other laws...
"It is always somewhat laughable, to see the Protestant churches, in pulpit and legislation, demand the observance of Sunday, of which there is nothing in their Bible."
— Peter R. Kraemer, Catholic Church Extension Magazine, USA (1975), Chicago, Illinois, "Under the blessing of the Pope Pius XI".
"I am going to propose a very plain and serious question to those who follow 'the Bible and the Bible only' to give their most earnest attention. It is this: Why don't you keep holy the Sabbath day?...
"The command of the Almighty God stands clearly written in the Bible in these words: 'Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labor, and do all thy work; but the seventh day is the Sabbath of the Lord thy God; in it thou shalt not do any work.' Exodus 20:8-10...
"You will answer me, perhaps, that you do keep the Sabbath; for that you abstain from all worldly business and diligently go to church, and say your prayers, and read your Bible at home every Sunday of your lives...
"But Sunday is not the Sabbath day. Sunday is the first day of the week: the Sabbath day is the seventh day of the week. Almighty God did not give a commandment that men should keep holy one day in seven; but He named His own day, and said distinctly: 'Thou shalt keep holy the seventh day'; and He assigned a reason for choosing this day rather than any other - a reason which belongs only to the seventh day of the week, and cannot be applied to the rest. He says, 'For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea and all that in them is, and rested on the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and hallowed it', Exodus 20:11, Genesis 2:1-3. Almighty God ordered that all men should rest from their labor on the seventh day, because He too had rested on that day: He did not rest on Sunday, but on Saturday. On Sunday, which is the first day of the week, He began the work of creation; He did not finish it. It was on Saturday that He 'ended His work which he had made: and God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it He had rested from all His work which God created and made.' Genesis 2:2-3...
"Nothing can be more plain and easy to understand than all this; there is nobody who attempts to deny it. It is acknowledged by everybody that the day which Almighty God appointed to be kept holy was Saturday, not Sunday. Why do you then keep holy the Sunday and not Saturday?
"You will tell me that Saturday was the Jewish Sabbath, but that the Christian Sabbath has been changed to Sunday. Changed! But by whom? Who has the authority to change an express commandment of Almighty God? When God has spoken and said, 'Thou shalt keep holy the seventh day', who shall dare to say, 'Nay, thou mayest work and do all manner of worldly business on the seventh day: but thou shalt keep holy the first day in its stead?' This is a most important question, which I know not how you answer...
"You are a Protestant, and you profess to go by the Bible and the Bible only; and yet, in so important a manner as the observance of one day in seven as the holy day, you go against the plain letter of the Bible, and put another day in the place of that day which the Bible has commanded. The command to keep holy the seventh day is one of the Ten Commandments; you believe that the other nine are still binding. Who gave you authority to tamper with the fourth? If you are consistent with your own principles, if you really follow the Bible, and the Bible only you ought to be able to produce some portion of the New Testament in which this fourth commandment is expressly altered."
Excerpts from "Why Don't You Keep Holy the Sabbath Day?", pages 3-15 in The Clifton Tract, vol. 4, published by the Roman Catholic Church 1869.
"Written by the finger of God on two tables of stone, this Divine code (ten commandments) was received from the Almighty by Moses amid the thunders of Mount Sinai...Christ resumed these Commandments in the double precept of charity--love of God and of the neighbour; He proclaimed them as binding under the New Law in Matthew 19 and in the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5)...The (Catholic) Church, on the other hand, after changing the day of rest from the Jewish Sabbath, or seventh day of the week, to the first, made the Third Commandment refer to Sunday as the day to be kept holy as the Lord's Day...He (God) claims one day out of the seven as a memorial to Himself, and this must be kept holy..."
The Catholic Encyclopaedia, vol. 4, "The Ten Commandments", 1908 edition by Robert Appleton Company; and 1999 Online edition by Kevin Knight, Imprimatur, John M. Farley, Archbishop of New York.
(Matthew 15:3,6,9) But He answered and said to them, why do you also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition?...And you void the commandment of God by your tradition...But in vain they worship Me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.
-"These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me. They worship me in vain; their teachings are but rules taught by men...And he said to them. 'You have a fine way of setting aside the commands of God in order to observe your own traditions.'" Mark 7:7,9
Actually, no, you didn't. You claimed there that Paul had written Hebrews, which he did not,
the bit in Colossians refers to an "annual Sabbath", without any supporting evidence for it. If a person has multiple uses for the same word, and does not qualify it,
Col. 2:16 Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days: (KJV)
In a nutshell, here is the prophetic significance of each of the seven Levitical feasts of Israel:
1) Passover (Leviticus 23:5) – Pointed to the Messiah as our Passover lamb (1 Corinthians 5:7) whose blood would be shed for our sins. Jesus was crucified on the day of preparation for the Passover at the same hour that the lambs were being slaughtered for the Passover meal that evening.
2) Unleavened Bread (Leviticus 23:6) – Pointed to the Messiah's sinless life (as leaven is a picture of sin in the Bible), making Him the perfect sacrifice for our sins. Jesus' body was in the grave during the first days of this feast, like a kernel of wheat planted and waiting to burst forth as the bread of life.
3) First Fruits (Leviticus 23:10) – Pointed to the Messiah's resurrection as the first fruits of the righteous. Jesus was resurrected on this very day, which is one of the reasons that Paul refers to him in 1 Corinthians 15:20 as the "first fruits from the dead."
4) Weeks or Pentecost (Leviticus 23:16) – Occurred fifty days after the beginning of the Feast of Unleavened Bread and pointed to the great harvest of souls and the gift of the Holy Spirit for both Jew and Gentile, who would be brought into the kingdom of God during the Church Age (see Acts 2). The Church was actually established on this day when God poured out His Holy Spirit and 3,000 Jews responded to Peter's great sermon and his first proclamation of the gospel.
5) Trumpets (Leviticus 23:24) – The first of the fall feasts. Many believe this day points to the Rapture of the Church when the Messiah Jesus will appear in the heavens as He comes for His bride, the Church. The Rapture is always associated in Scripture with the blowing of a loud trumpet (1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 and 1 Corinthians 15:52).
6) Day of Atonement (Leviticus 23:27) – Many believe this prophetically points to the day of the Second Coming of Jesus when He will return to earth. That will be the Day of Atonement for the Jewish remnant when they "look upon Him whom they have pierced," repent of their sins, and receive Him as their Messiah (Zechariah 12:10 and Romans 11:1-6, 25-36).
7) Tabernacles or Booths (Leviticus 23:34) – Many scholars believe that this feast day points to the Lord's promise that He will once again "tabernacle" with His people when He returns to reign over all the world (Micah 4:1-7).
Thank you for another giant wall of text that takes a straightforward statement, dissects and reframes it in order to make it sound like it says the exact opposite of what it does.
Luke 16:17 It is easier for heaven and earth to disappear than for the least stroke of a pen to drop out of the Law (or to become void ESV)
The problem that you have is that there are very clear indications in scripture that you are wrong, so you need to twist the text in order to diffuse it.
However, viewed holistically (the only way to read the Bible, in my opinion,)
If that's the case, then why restate any of them?
but as Paul says:
Isaiah 64:6 All of us have become like one who is unclean, and all our righteous acts are like filthy rags; we all shrivel up like a leaf, and like the wind our sins sweep us away.
Again, I ask you -- is Paul in hell for worshiping on Sunday, and for encouraging others to do the same?
The question is whether salvation hangs on a technicality, which particular day you view as being appropriate for worship, and whether we are bound by that, or whether Christ liberated us from it. The SDA claims it does hang on a technicality, everyone else claims it doesn't.
Canon XXIX.
Christians must not judaize by resting on the Sabbath, but must work on that day, rather honouring the Lord's Day; and, if they can, resting then as Christians. But if any shall be found to be judaizers, let them be anathema from Christ.
- 2177...Sunday...is to be observed as the foremost holy day of obligation in the universal Church.
- 2180 The precept of the Church specifies the law of the Lord more precisely: "On Sundays and other holy days of obligation the faithful are bound to participate in the Mass.
- 2185 On Sundays and other holy days of obligation
Catecism of the Catholic church
"Protestants...accept Sunday rather than Saturday as the day for public worship after the Catholic Church made the change...But the Protestant mind does not seem to realize that...In observing the Sunday, they are accepting the authority of the spokesman for the church, the Pope." — Our Sunday Visitor, February 15, 1950.
"It was the Catholic church which...has transferred this rest to Sunday in remembrance of the resurrection of our Lord. Therefore the observance of Sunday by the Protestants is an homage they pay, in spite of themselves, to the authority of the (Catholic) church." — Monsignor Louis Segur, Plain Talk About the Protestantism of Today, p. 213.
it should come as little surprise that the vast majority of people do not subscribe to the SDA doctrine that results in the belief that people are saved by works (Saturday worship) and works alone.
It is well to remind the Presbyterians, Baptists, Methodists, and all other Christians, that the Bible does not support them anywhere in their observance of Sunday. Sunday is an institution of the Roman Catholic Church, and those who observe the day observe a commandment of the Catholic Church." — Priest Brady, in an address reported in The News, Elizabeth, New Jersey, March 18, 1903.
"Is there any command in the New Testament to change the day of weekly rest from Saturday to Sunday? None." (Manual of Christian Doctrine p.127)
- "We have made a change from the seventh day to the first day, form Saturday to Sunday, on the authority of the one holy Catholic and apostolic church of Christ." (Why we keep Sunday. p.28.)
They [the Protestants] deem it their duty to keep the Sunday holy. Why? Because the Catholic Church tells them to do so. They have no other reason...The observance of Sunday thus comes to be an ecclesiastical law entirely distinct from the divine law of Sabbath observance...The author of the Sunday law...is the Catholic Church." — Ecclesiastical Review, February 1914.
The "it doesn't matter" argument is bolstered by the words of Christ. The "it does matter" is bolstered by the words of the false prophet Ellen White
ETA: I know that you won't read it, but for the benefit of others who may be interested in the "truth" of Ellen White
Let me use big letters that you might be able to better discern: The underlined passage there is flat out wrong -- the Catholic church did not "CHANGE THE SABBATH", and explicitly says so in the Catechism.
2175 Sunday... for Christians its ceremonial observance replaces that of the sabbath.
2176 Sunday worship fulfills the moral command of the Old Covenant
2180 The precept of the Church specifies the law of the Lord more precisely: "On Sundays and other holy days of obligation the faithful are bound to participate in the Mass."117 "The precept of participating in the Mass is satisfied by assistance at a Mass which is celebrated anywhere in a Catholic rite either on the holy day or on the evening of the preceding day.
2184 The institution of the Lord's Day helps everyone enjoy adequate rest and leisure to cultivate their familial, cultural, social, and religious lives
2188 Christians should seek recognition of Sundays and the Church's holy days as legal holidays.
2190 The sabbath, which represented the completion of the first creation, has been replaced by Sunday
Get that? Your statement that the Catholic Church CHANGED the Sabbath is flat out wrong.
Sunday worship is documented in the New Testament, Saturday worship for non-Jews is not. Pure and simple, like it or leave it.
All the rest of it, once again, comes down to you and your foolish legalisms.
Isaiah 8:20 To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them.
1 John 2:4 If someone claims, "I know God," but doesn't obey God's commandments, that person is a liar and is not living in the truth.

I wrote down what my study Bible says who is traditionally held to have written Hebrews. And you know Paul did not because, and the name of the real author is???
Col. 2:16 Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days: (KJV)
How is sabbath days framed in the context of the ceremonial law and saying it was a shadow of something fulfilled in Christ a straightforward statement against the weekly Sabbath of the Divine Law when the Divine Law remains forever and the Sabbath is a memorial to creation and is not a shadow of anything.
Jesus says:
Luke 16:17 It is easier for heaven and earth to disappear than for the least stroke of a pen to drop out of the Law (or to become void ESV)
Canon XXIX.

So knowing this multiple principles at play, is it any wonder that the major view in bible commentaries agree with what I have said in analysing this verse, is it any wonder that the Catholic church agree with Adventist analysis in relation to this whole Sabbath topic. I am sorry you can't understand the Bible properly, it is truly a shame. But if you want to come on this thread and introduce this topic while framing it negatively about Adventists (when I am trying to do an inclusive thread to bring in non-Christians into a religious discussion) then I am going to make a good and proper example out of your terrible theological understanding and your interest to sabotage me in drawing people to Christianity.
Dude, you're not trying to draw people to Christianity, you're trying to draw them specifically to Seventh Day Adventist and you're most likely scaring them away. You're not promoting Jesus Christ, you're promoting a day of the week! You've given it higher regard than Jesus himself in this thread!
Given your previously demonstrated propensity to only use biased, anti-Catholic and disreputable sources, I think it safe to say most of what you've posted here is dubious, at best.
adjensen post
To date, all we've seen you make are statements that are absolutely false, and easily refutable with facts that a three year old can look up. adjensen quote
As I commented earlier, claims that you make against the Vatican may well have some validity
adjensen quote
Adjensen and I have been butting heads with each other recently. I think it first started on a topic to do the the state of the dead. Adjensen is a strong believer in Catholic theology and on that thread with much Catholic support posting alongside with him adjensen learnt that his views on the state of the dead were actually not supported scripturally anywhere near he originally thought.

Here are some references for you:
Deuteronomy 28:1-2
Deuteronomy 30:1-10
Isaiah 65
Jeremiah 31
Zechariah 8
These links with scripture posted might help too.
After the rapture of the church, after the seven-year long tribulation, after the war of Armageddon and the resurrection of the saints, Jesus will rule on the earth for one thousand years (Revelation 20:4-6)
Then we, which are alive and remain, shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Master in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Master." 1Thessalonians 4:17.
Matthew 24:24-26 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect. See, I have told you ahead of time.
So if anyone tells you, 'There he is, out in the desert,' do not go out; or, 'Here he is, in the inner rooms,' do not believe it.
Nahum 1:5,6 The mountains quake before Him, The hills melt, And the earth heaves at His presence, Yes, the world and all who dwell in it. Who can stand before His indignation? And who can endure the fierceness of His anger? His fury is poured out like fire, And the rocks are thrown down by Him.
The earth is utterly broken down, the earth is clean dissolved, the earth is moved exceedingly. The earth shall reel to and fro like a drunkard, and shall be removed like a cottage; and the transgression thereof shall be heavy upon it; and it shall fall, and not rise again. Isaiah 24:19-20
the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat; the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up." 2 Peter 3:10
1 Thessalonians 5:3 While people are saying, "Peace and safety," destruction will come on them suddenly...
The Bible tells us that when Christ returns to the earth He will establish Himself as king in Jerusalem, sitting on the throne of David (Luke 1:32-33).
Luke 1:33 and he will reign over the house of Jacob forever, and of his kingdom there will be no end.
The unconditional covenants demand a literal, physical return of Christ to establish the kingdom... The Palestinian Covenant promised Israel a restoration to the land and occupation of the land (Deuteronomy 30:1-10)
Once again, salvation is only relevant to believing who Jesus said he was and what he came here to do. [and]
I think with every religion we have has some misinterpretations (leading to lies), but I don't think that keeps us from also learning the truth that leads to salvation either. There is no perfect church because it is made up of men, but the Holy Spirit will lead us to believe what's important enough to lead us to salvation.
Why would Jesus rule on the Earth for 1000 years? The Revelation 20:4-6 passage makes no reference to Jesus being on the Earth.
Romans 14:1-13
14 Him that is weak in the faith receive ye, but not to doubtful disputations.
..then you might as well quote the rest of it...1 John 2:22-25
You're not making much of a case when you quote Ellen White, sorry.
Zechariah 14:9-17
9 And the Lord shall be king over all the earth:
Matthew 24:29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give its light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
So, as we've discussed before, and you've evaded, the Catholic Church has not changed the Sabbath
so if you think that this passage is relevant, and means that you must still adhere to Sabbath observance, as the Jews did, are you adhering to it all?
was a ban on claiming to believe in Christ while still wanting to live under the Law.
If the Catholic Church was adamant against worship on the Jewish Sabbath, they wouldn't have daily Mass, including Saturday.
not meeting some archaic legalism that Christ wiped away.

Polk County sheriff's deputies found a meth lab dumpsite on John Weaver Road in the Green Creek community on New Year's Day, sparking an investigation and a call to residents to report any suspicious activity in the area.
Polk County sheriff's deputies found a meth lab dumpsite on John Weaver Road in the Green Creek community on New Year's Day, sparking an investigation and a call to residents to report any suspicious activity in the area.
The dumpsite held materials and chemicals associated with "one-pot" or "shake-and-bake" productions of the illegal, manmade drug methamphetamine, according to a news release from the Sheriff's Office.
Deputies contacted a narcotics officer, who secured the scene where deputies found a hydrogren chloride gas generator and a two-liter bottle used to cook the methamphetamine.
The Polk County Sheriff's Office is asking anyone who sees trash being thrown from vehicles or people acting suspicious in the vicinity or vehicles parked on the roadway to report those instances. Deputies are reminding the public that chemicals associated with meth labs are dangerous.
If suspicious items are found, report the findings to the Sheriff's Office and do not tamper with the materials.
When found clustered together, the following items may indicate a pile of trash could be waste from a meth lab: anhydrous ammonia tanks; loose pills that look like common cold pills or diet pills or packaging from cold pills that contain ephedrine or pseudoephedrine; empty or full containers that are labeled as muriatic acid, Freon or starter fluid; alcohol or methanol (like Heet-brand gasoline additive or rubbing alcohol); red-stained coffee filters, bed sheets, pillow cases or old clothing; iodine crystals (grayish-black and shiny); containers that held sodium hydroxide, sulfuric and hydrochloric acid (Red Devil lye) or other drain cleaners; red phosphorus (in match books or sticks); ether (engine starting fluid); cans of solvents such as acetone, benzene, toluene, methyl ethyl ketone or xylene; disassembled lithium batteries; clear glass containers that look like they are from a laboratory, with rubber or plastic hosing; and containers from table salt or rock salt.
The N.C. State Bureau of Investigation is assisting in the investigation. To report any suspicious findings or activity, call the Sheriff's Office at 828-894-3001.

The perfect time of year to spend with friends and family, and maybe do a little outdoor grilling.
Not only is it fun, but cooking outdoors can actually save you energy and keep your home cooler.
Using an outdoor grill means your oven or stovetop isn't on. This also helps keep your kitchen cooler, which means your refrigerator and air conditioner don't have to work as hard. End result: even more energy savings.
One word of warning, though!
Try to minimize trips in and out to the grill. Every time you open a door, you let heat in and cooled air out, offsetting some of the savings gained by not using your kitchen appliances.
Our recommendation: Get organized before you go out, and plan to stay out once you get to the grill. Know what you need in advance, such as utensils, spices and marinades, and pack what you plan to grill in a cooler, so it can wait safely until the barbeque is ready. Don't forget a nice cold drink or two (in a separate cooler) to ensure the chef stays well hydrated in the summer heat.
And remember that grilling is not just for burgers. Think outside the bun! Vegetables like corn and asparagus, sweet potatoes and artichokes grill beautifully – and what about a grilled cheese sandwich or a quesadilla, and have you ever tasted a grilled peach?
You may never use your kitchen range again.

4 Pitched:
- Kuram said...July 9, 2010 at 11:59 PM
The first time I saw him bat, he immediately made an impression. His technique is miles ahead of most Pakistani batsman even after playing for over half a decade. He does not rely on one or two shots... he plays all over the ground and convincingly. He can play huge shots, delicate china cuts, feverish square drives, beautiful off drives and even the Dilscoops.
There is an air of confidence about him when he is at the crease. The green lip balm and cut sleeves clearly demonstrates that.
And all that has been achieved against the likes of Australia with zero support from the other batsman and usually when the team was 4 down with 50 odd runs, just speaks volumes about his character. If he gets a decent partner he will tear the opposition to shreds (we have already seen him done that numerous times even in difficult situations).
Buckle on guys, we are in for an entertaining decade with two new legends in the making.

He is just what you said,an exceptional talent.Very very specail players.
Well Written,

great post qazi
- Mudassar @ CricketVibe.com said...July 15, 2010 at 12:27 AM
he is a star in the making but Pakistan need more of his controlling and leading innings than star status and just today he played recklessly against Watson when he was needed more than ever. Some work on his brain is required which will take some time.

Peter Apfelbaum's 'MLT'
Last night the String Cheese Incident closed out its two-show Theater at MSG run, with this evening an off night prior to tomorrows Radio City Music Hall show. Joining SCI was Peter Apfelbaum (Hieroglyphics Ensemble, Trey Anastasio). Apfelbaum appeared during both sets adding sax to such songs as MLT and Valley of the Jig (during some of these segments guitarist Bill Nershi moved over to percussion). Also of note is that during the bands encore, percussionist Jason Hann moved over to organ as the group debuted the Kyle Hollingsworth composition The Bridge which appears on his solo debut Never Even or Odd (our interview with Hollingsworth will appear tomorrow on the site).

Via Common Dreams:
The Heartland Institute, a right-wing think tank funded by the Koch brothers, Microsoft, and other top corporations, is planning to develop a "global warming curriculum" for elementary schoolchildren that presents climate science as "a major scientific controversy," according to a report by Think Progress.
Today's report reads in part:
[The Heartland Institute's] effort, at a cost of $100,000 a year, will be developed by Dr. David E. Wojick, a coal-industry consultant.
"Principals and teachers are heavily biased toward the alarmist perspective," Heartland's confidential 2012 fundraising document bemoans. The group believes that Wojick's project has "potential for great success," because he has "contacts at virtually all the national organizations involved in producing, certifying, and promoting scientific curricula." The document explains that Wojick will produce "modules" that promote the conspiratorial claim that climate change is "controversial" […]
Wojick will receive $25,000 per module, with four modules produced a year. Wojick, who manages the Climate Change Debate listserv, is not a climate scientist. His doctorate is in epistomology.
The Heartland Institute also runs the Nongovernmental International Panel on Climate Change, a conspiracy-theorist parody of the Nobel-prize-winning U.N. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. Heartland's NIPCC project "pays a team of scientists approximately $300,000 a year to work on a series of editions of Climate Change Reconsidered." Their climate-denial work is funded anonymously.
The full excerpt from the Heartland document:
Though troubling to both advocates of quality education and those concerned with the increasingly destructive impact of global warming and climate change, the Heartland's plans are hardly surprising. In fact, they follow a troubling trend among rightwing think tanks and the conservative movement to undermine education by generating and then inserting invented scientific controversy into public school curricula…

That was a really amazing find for me and I am writing about it here so that you know of a great place to buy health supplements or products that you may need but can't find where you live. 💡

LOUISVILLE — Those around California Chrome describe him as a curious horse, a fact that was plainly evident Thursday morning when he galloped with his chestnut face cocked to the side, watching the crowd watching him as completed his routine activities over the Churchill Downs track.
There is a lot for the colt to take in these days as the eyes of the racing community have been firmly fixed on him since his a 51/4-length win in the Grade I Santa Anita Derby on April 5.
His status as the Kentucky Derby favorite is inarguable. However, no race is more successful at taking down brilliant runners with its pitfalls than the 11/4-mile classic ahead of him and 18 of his classmates Saturday.
Having won his last four races by a combined margin of 241/4 lengths, California Chrome is carrying a level of hype that rivals the chatter Big Brown inspired prior to his Derby victory in 2008.
While the colt's form has been devoid of holes since he began his current win streak with a 61/4-length victory in the King Glorious Stakes at Hollywood Park last Dec. 13, Derby history is littered with can't lose horses — Easy Goer (1989), Point Given (2001) — doing just that.
Having done all his major pre-race preparation at trainer Art Sherman's base at Los Alamitos in California, California Chrome did not conduct a timed workout over the Churchill Downs track — a routine only I'll Have Another (2012), Giacomo (2005) and Funny Cide (2003) got away with leading up to their wins on the first Saturday in May.
Though some also question whether California Chrome can outrun some supposed distance limitations in his pedigree, Sherman believes that is the least of the colt's problems.
"To me, he can run 1½ miles," said Sherman, who was the exercise rider for 1955 Kentucky Derby winner Swaps. "He can run behind horses, he can run in front, he's shown me things that a good horse does.
"I always have concerns. You've got 20 head of horses in the race, sometimes you have the traffic problems, horses backing up in your face and are you going to get through. ... I would like to see him no worse than fourth or fifth down the backside. That would be perfect to me."
The field for the Kentucky Derby was actually reduced to 19 runners when trainer Bob Baffert declared Thursday that Rebel Stakes winner Hoppertunity would miss the race with a suspected bruise in his left front foot.
Pablo Del Monte, third in the Grade I Toyota Blue Grass Stakes, drew into the field off the also-eligible list, but his connections chose not to start him and will look to the Preakness Stakes instead.
As has become customary this time of year, six-time Eclipse Award-winning trainer Todd Pletcher has a multi-horse arsenal for the Kentucky Derby. He will saddle Grade I winners Danza and We Miss Artie along with graded stakes winners Intense Holiday and Vinceremos.
Danza launched himself onto the radar with his 43/4-length win in the Grade I Arkansas Derby on April 12 while Intense Holiday blew by stablemate We Miss Artie when the two worked in company last weekend.
"In particular, Intense Holiday and Danza have trained really well since they've been here," said Pletcher, who won the 2010 Derby with Super Saver. "Both seem to be peaking at the right time, doing really well."
Trainer and Louisville native Dale Romans is seeking his first Kentucky Derby triumph with Grade III winner Medal Count.
Medal Count will be making his third start in five weeks after winning the Grade III Transylvania opening day at Keeneland and running second to fellow Derby entrant Dance With Fate in the Grade I Toyota Blue Grass Stakes eight days later.
"I feel better than I ever have about any of my chances going into the Derby," said Romans, who has had four prior starters. "I think that we really fit well with this group. I think he's peaking at the right time. I think he's got all the parts that it takes to win a Derby."
Samraat, winner of the Grade III Withers and Gotham Stakes, and his rival Uncle Sigh are aiming to join Funny Cide as the only New York-breds to win the Derby, while Ride On Curlin will be ridden by three-time Kentucky Derby-winning jockey Calvin Borel.
"All the speed's on the inside,'' said trainer Billy Gowan of Ride On Curlin having to make his run from post No. 19. "I think they'll run out there, and I think we can just drop over. I'm hoping we can, anyhow.''

With their fusion of flamenco elements, jazz riffs, Middle Eastern sounds, Cuban and other Latin American rhythms, the Sultans of String seem to know how to strike the right chord.
South Florida audiences will have the opportunity to see why on Friday, as the Canadian Sultans make their Florida debut with a show at the South Miami-Dade Cultural Arts Center (SMDCAC) as part of its Cabaret Series. (They will perform at the Arts Garage in Delray Beach on Saturday.)
"The quality and the multicultural style of the Sultans, the fact that they touch on Latin and Spanish rhythms and gypsy jazz, these are the types of things that we've been presenting in the Cabaret, and they represent the combination of all of those genres," says Eric Fliss, SMDCAC's managing director.
Physically representing multicultural backgrounds are the Sultans themselves. Co-founder and violinist, guitarist, composer and producer Chris McKhool is of Lebanese and Egyptian ancestry (his last name derives from Makhoul). For the South Florida shows he will be joined by the band's other co-founder, Kevin Laliberté, on guitar, and Drew Birston on bass. (The group's latest album, Symphony! (Sony/Red), was released last year.)
McKhool dug into his roots for the Sultans' Arabic sound. He got his first live taste of rumba flamenca from Laliberté, who brings a Spanish influence. The Sultans of String began in 2007 as the duo of McKhool and Laliberté. Birston, who adds a pop and jazz sensibility, joined the group early on. They are flexible in their roster and adaptable to situations, sometimes playing as a quartet with Canada-based Cuban percussionist Rosendo "Chendy" León, who won't be able to make it to the South Florida performances due to other engagements.
"Because of their need for percussion, Chris first invited me to perform on one of their albums, without being officially in the band," León says from Ottawa. "And because of the fusion that we created, they really liked the idea of me joining them" and developing their sound.
León, 41, the son of a well-known percussionist in Cuba, has lived in Canada since 1999. "I was also always open to the possibility of learning new rhythms, because that's what the Sultans do."
Another Cuban musician who has played with the Sultans is Alberto Suárez. Both Suárez and Leon have enriched the group with their contributions, McKhool says from his home in Toronto. "We have a lot of Cuban musicians in Toronto, and they're a very important part of our music scene," McKhool says. "Playing with Chendy and with Alberto has taught me a lot more about their music and about the rhythms of Latin America."
When they are a quintet, the Sultans feature guitarist Eddie Paton. At times, they also perform with a Latin brass ensemble: three trumpets or trumpet, sax, and trombone, with different players each time. And they also relish their symphony shows, which feature anywhere from 35 to 75 players as they play with classical orchestras. "We're modular, like Ikea," says McKhool, 45.
They are managed by music industry veteran Dave Wilkes, a Plantation resident who also has worked with stars such as Barry Manilow, Emmy Lou Harris and Jerry Jeff Walker. Four years ago Wilkes went from being a fan of the group to their international road manager.
"I don't like boundaries in music. I don't like anything that puts anyone into a box," Wilkes says. "And these guys do great music. That's my thing: Always go with great music."
This entails winning the public over with charisma, skill and talent. "One of the greatest thrills in the entertainment world is when a customer goes into a club and sees an act that he did not know about, and it moves him," says Wilkes, who once managed New York's legendary The Bitter End nightclub.
Fliss first heard of the Sultans half a year ago through the Arts Garage in Delray, and entered into a partnership with that other artistic hub to bring the group to South Florida.
"Miami is a tough town to get people to tour if you don't have any connectors to bring them down," Fliss says. "It's not like you're in North Carolina, where you can kind of pass through on your way to D.C. or Pennsylvania. I would say almost 60 percent of the artists that we present at the center, if not more, have never performed in Miami."
That includes the Sultans, although McKhool has some fun memories of visiting: "When I was a kid, I grew up in Ottawa, and we used to pile into a VW van, the three kids and their parents, and drive all the way down to Florida, like a 36-hour drive, and hang out for a week and drive back up."

The modern name Malahide may come from "Mullach Íde" meaning "the hill of Íde" or "Íde's sand-hill". It could also mean "Sand-hills of the Hydes" (from Mullac h-Íde) probably referring to a Norman family from the Donabate area.[2] According to the Placenames Database of Ireland the name Malahide is possibly derived from the Irish "Baile Átha Thíd" meaning "the town of the ford of Thíd".[3] Malahide Bay was anciently called Inber Domnann, the "river-mouth of the Fir Domnann".
Location and access
Malahide is situated 16 kilometres north of the city of Dublin, lying between Swords, Kinsealy and Portmarnock. It is situated on the Broadmeadow estuary, on the opposite side of which is Donabate.
The village is served by the DART and the train, run by Irish Rail. The Dublin Bus 32, 42 and 102, the 32X and 142 peak hour express services, and 42N Nite-Link route serve the town from Dublin City Centre. Route 102 serves local areas to / from Dublin Airport ( via Swords ) and Sutton Station (via Portmarnock ).
|Historical population
While there are some remnants of prehistoric activity, Malahide is known to have become a persistent settlement from the coming of the Vikings, who landed in 795, and used Malahide Estuary (along with Baldoyle) as a convenient base. With the arrival of the Anglo-Normans, the last Danish King of Dublin retired to the area in 1171. From the 1180s, the history of the area is tied to that of the Talbot family of Malahide Castle, who were granted extensive lands in the area and over the centuries following developed their estate, and the small harbour settlement.
There is an ancient covered well, St. Sylvester's, on the old main street (Old Street, previously Chapel Street), which used to have a "pattern" to Our Lady each 15 August.
In 1475 Thomas Talbot, head of the Talbot family of Malahide Castle, was granted the title Admiral of the port of Malahide by King Edward IV, with power to hold admiralty courts and levy customs duties on all merchandise coming into the port. The office was hereditary, and the family's right to act as Admiral was confirmed by the Court of Exchequer (Ireland) in 1639.[4]
By the early 19th century, the village had a population of over 1000, and a number of local industries, including salt harvesting, while the harbour continued in commercial operation, with landings of coal and construction materials. By 1831, the population had reached 1223. The area grew in popularity in Georgian times as a seaside resort for wealthy Dublin city dwellers. This is still evident today from the fine collection of Georgian houses in the town and along the seafront, and Malahide is still a popular spot for day-trippers, especially in the summer months.
In the 1960s, developers began to build housing estates around the village core of Malahide, launching the first, Ard na Mara in 1964. Further estates followed, to the northwest, south and west, but the village core remained intact, with the addition of a "marina apartment complex" development adjacent to the village green.
Malahide grew from a population of 67 in 1921 to 1500 in 1960 and by 2011 had a population of 15,846, and is still a rapidly growing town for the Dublin area. Most of the population lives outside the core village, in residential areas such as Seapark, Biscayne, Robswall, Chalfont, Yellow Walls, Ard Na Mara, Seabury and Gainsborough. Malahide has a higher percentage of professionals living in it than any other town in Ireland, according to figures released by the Central Statistics Office. Malahide came top of the socio-economic charts with the highest proportion of residents classified as employers, managers and higher professionals. These groups combined, make up 41.3% of Malahide's population.
In Malahide village there are extensive retail facilities and services including fashion boutiques, hair and beauty salons, florists, food outlets, and a small shopping centre. There is a wide selection of pubs (including Gibney's, Fowler's, Duffy's and Gilbert and Wright's) and restaurants and the 203-room Grand Hotel.
Malahide is part of the Dáil Éireann constituency of Dublin North, whose four elected representatives are James Reilly of Fine Gael, elected in 2007; Brendan Ryan of the Labour Party, elected in 2011; Clare Daly of United Left Alliance, elected in 2011; and Alan Farrell of Fine Gael, elected in 2011.
Past sitting TDs have included Nora Owen (Fine Gael), Sean Ryan (Labour), and the Fianna Fáil member G.V. Wright.
Malahide forms part of the Howth/Malahide Local Electoral area of Fingal County Council. The current Malahide based representatives of the five seat area are Alan Farrell (Fine Gael) and Eoghan O'Brien (Fianna Fáil). Although not resident of Malahide, the other three representatives are Brian McDonagh (Labour – Portmarnock) and Cian O'Callaghan (Labour – Sutton).
Leisure and organisations
Near to the village itself is Malahide Castle and demesne, including, gardens, which were once the estate of Baron Talbot of Malahide.
Malahide also has a substantial marina.
The Malahide area has more than twenty residents' associations, sixteen of which (May 2007) work together through the Malahide Community Forum, which publishes a quarterly newsletter, The Malahide Guardian.
There is an active historical society (with a small museum at Malahide Castle Demesne), a Lions club, a camera club, a musical and drama society, the renowned Enchiriadis choirs, a chess club and a photography group which has published calendars.
Aside from Malahide Castle Demesne, there are a number of smaller parks (with further spaces planned, for example, at Robswall and Seamount). There are several golf courses nearby, and GAA, soccer, tennis, rugby, yacht clubs and Sea Scouts.
Twenty five years ago, in 1990, Malahide won the Irish Tidy Towns Competition.[5]
Another group that has been present in Malahide for many years is the Malahide Pipe Band. The band was established in 1954 and still practices in the same original area in Yellow Walls today. The band comprises pipers and drummers playing the bagpipes and snare, tenor and bass drums. The band plays at various events locally, with main objective to play in competitions around the country in the summer months. The Band has also been involved in running a Pipe Band Competition in Malahide Castle for a number of years. The Band is always looking for new members and supporters. For more details go to the Malahide Pipe Band's website http://www.dublin.ie/websites/malahidepipeband.
There are also a wide variety of sports clubs within the Malahide area. Rugby, soccer, GAA sports, sailing, hockey, golf, cricket, tennis and basketball are all well represented.
Gaelic games
- St Sylvesters is the local Gaelic Athletic Association club.
Malahide Basketball Club was formed in 1977 and currently fields 2 senior ladies teams, 2 senior men's teams and 15 junior girls and boys teams (from under 10 to under 18). They train and play all their home matches at Malahide Community School and Holywell Community Centre.
Originally Malahide Hockey Club now amalgamated with Fingal Hockey Club (formerly Aer Lingus) to become Malahide Fingal Hockey Club. An all female club they currently field four senior teams and have a junior section of nine teams aged between 7 and 16. All teams for play and train in Broomfield Malahide.
Malahide Cricket Club ([1]) was founded in 1861 and is situated within Malahide Castle demesne, near the railway station. The club has over 400 members and is open all year round. The club currently fields 18 teams (5 Senior Men's, 2 Ladies, 10 youth and a Taverners side). Both the men's and women's premier teams compete (in their respective leagues) at the highest grade of cricket played in Ireland. From 2009–12 the club's ground was developed into an 11,500-capacity venue and hosted its first one-day international in September 2013 when Ireland played England,[6] with England winning by six wickets after captain Eoin Morgan hit 124 not out on what had been his home ground in his youth.[7] The ground is now the biggest in Ireland. This project has also seen the development of a 2nd "club" pitch on the nearby Lady Acre within Malahide Demesne.
Malahide United AFC ([2]) was founded in 1944 and currently fields 60 schoolboy/girl teams, from Under 7 to Under 18, and 4 senior teams. They have two Academies, the first one catering for the 5-, 6- and 7-year-olds and the second one for the 8-, 9- and 10-year-olds. With over 1,000 registered players, Malahide United is one of the largest clubs in Ireland. The home ground is Gannon Park, which comprises two 11-a-side pitches, one 7-a-side pitch, one 11-a-side floodlit all-weather pitch, one floodlit 5-a-side/warm up all-weather pitch and full clubhouse facilities.
Further pitches are used in Malahide Castle (two 7/9-a-sides and three 11-a-sides) with a further 11-a-side pitch in Broomfield, Malahide
Aston Village FC was established back in 1994. Their current home ground is Malahide Castle and a local company is their main sponsor. They have three strong senior teams competing in both the U.C.F.L and the A.U.L leagues. Although small in size they still cater for up to 100 senior players with ages ranging from 16 – 43 years of age.
"Atlético Malahide" was established in 2015 by a group of young determined lads. Their current home pitch is Malahide castle. Atletico's team consists of young men aged 18-19 and are currently playing in the U.C.F.L. The clubs ambitions are high and wish to succeed in both league and domestic competitions.
Malahide Rugby Club[8] is located in a modern clubhouse and sports ground opposite the scenic Malahide estuary on Estuary Road. Originally founded in 1922, Malahide Rugby Club had to disband during World War II due to lack of available players. However, in 1978 the club was reformed and now fields three senior men's teams, one women's team, four youth teams and six "mini" rugby teams.
There are two sailing clubs situated on the estuary; Swords Sailing & Boating Club and Malahide Yacht Club. Malahide Yacht Club. The inner estuary is also home of Fingal Sailing School and DMG Sailsports based in the 350-berth marina.
Malahide Golf Club opened in 1892, moving to a new location in 1990. It has a 2-storey clubhouse completed in May 1990, with 1,000 square metres, including bars, a restaurant, conference room and a snooker room. The 17th is a notoriously difficult hole known to locals as "Cromwell's Delight", due to its narrow fairways and dominant bunkers.
Malahide Sea Scouts
Malahide Sea Scout group is situated on St. James Terrace on the waters edge of Malahide Estuary. It was founded in 1919 and has a membership of over 600 youths. It is the largest Sea Scouting group in Europe.[citation needed] In 2012, the Scouting and the Venture sections for the first time in any Sea Scout Group history won all 5 activity trophies.
There are five schools in the environs of Malahide, four primary (Pope John Paul II National School, St. Andrews National School, St. Oliver Plunkett Primary School, and St. Sylvester's Infant School) and one secondary (Pobal Scoil Iosa, Malahide).
Malahide has two Catholic parishes (St. Sylvesters is the main one) and one Church of Ireland parish (St. Andrews), and also forms part of a Presbyterian community, with a church built in 1956 as the first Presbyterian church in the Republic of Ireland since 1922 (it is one of two churches of the Congregation of Howth and Malahide).[9]
Malahide railway station opened on 25 May 1844.[10] It is now one of the northern termini of the DART system, (the other being Howth). The station features a heritage garden and an attractive ironwork canopy. The ironwork in the canopy contains the monogram of the Great Northern Railway ('GNR'), who operated the route prior to nationalisation of the railways.
The railway crosses the Broadmeadow estuary on a Broadmeadow viaduct known locally as The Arches.[11] The original viaduct was a wooden structure built in 1844, which was replaced with an iron structure in 1860 and a pre-cast structure in 1966-7.[11]
Viaduct collapse
On 21 August 2009 the 18:07 train from Balbriggan to Connolly was passing over the 200-year-old viaduct when the driver noticed a subsidence and the embankment giving way on the northbound track.[12] The train passed over the bridge before it collapsed and the driver alerted authorities.[12]
An inquiry is investigating the possibility that sea bed erosion is the primary cause of the collapse.[13]
A member of Malahide Sea Scouts, Ivan Barrett, had contacted Iarnród Éireann five days before the collapse about possible damage to the viaduct and a change in water flow around it.[14]

Shale Drillers Eager to Move Wastewater on Barges – December 19, 2012
Industry says it's the safest and cheapest way to move wastewater. Environmentalists counter that the possibility of a spill means it isn't worth the risk
The shale gas drilling industry wants to move its wastewater by barge on rivers and lakes across the country. But the US Coast Guard, which regulates the nation's waterways, must first decide whether it's safe.

"It may be hazardous," said Commander Michael Roldan, chief of the Coast Guard's Hazardous Material Division, stressing the word 'may.' "If it is, it would not be allowed to ship under bulk."

There have been many takes on Mac antivirus software over the years. Some people still refuse to believe that Apple's prized computers can get infected, but the reality is that the Apple world is less secure than you might wish. ClamXav is a great app if you're looking for some extra protections from the dangers out there, and it really works its hardest to keep your Mac safe. Our own Jorge Rodriguez reviewed this fine app at the beginning of this year, saying that "it feels trustworthy".
But aren't there some other worthy competitors to Mark Allan's minimal virus protection approach? Why yes, and I think the most notable one comes from Symantec. It's called iAntivirus. That's right, the developer of Norton also made a Mac antivirus app that's nothing you should overlook. It's an extremely minimal approach with only four menu options, but there's still a lot of protection offered. Let's take a deeper look, shall we? (more…)

These are two great and simple articles to talk about personal traits, abilities and capabilities (something we usually cover in the basic language levels) and make connections with job search.
The first article talks about the 10 most common words Spanish LinkedIn professionals use to describe themselves on their CVs. This is a great way to introduce relevant vocabulary and to start discussion on personality traits that make you stand out on your job search. Students could think of examples of what it means to be "creativo", "motivado" or "apasionado" in their particular career contexts and how they can show employers that they possess these skills.
The second article discusses job search strategies. It gives concrete steps such as defining your objectives, knowing yourself, your strengths and weaknesses, doing networking, etc. and it also provides basic questions prior to job search such as ¿Cómo soy?, ¿Qué sé?, Qué se hacer?, ¿Dónde quiero trabajar?, ¿Cuáles son los sectores que más me interesan?, etc. Again, great questions to practice basic skills while making real-life connections.
These activities will also help you get to know more about your students, their personality, their personal goals and career aspirations!

My wonderful fiancé witnessed this story and has asked me to put it into my words on her behalf. ..
Streamlined and elegant, the cheetah strode purposely down the road in front of us. The late afternoon sun glinting off his eyes, giving them the impression of polished amber; his velvet coat glowing gold in the receding light. His long legs and slight frame hinting at the explosive power that lay beneath them. His eyes, perfectly adapted to diurnal hunting, scanned the bush on either side for his next meal. Driven by the need to find food, and constantly aware of the stronger competition that might take it from him, the cheetah leads one of the harshest lives of Africa's most revered predators. Rarely is he able to finish a meal without the interruption of hyena or lion.
Today he was hungry. His beautiful eyes betraying the need to eat as they analaysed every inch of the landscape, searching for potential prey. His sharp vision soon picked out a herd of impala casually grazing close to a waterhole. Instantly his demeanor changed. With delicate precision, the cheetah circled his prey. His deliberate approach borne out a life of missed opportunities and experience; the ability to see but not be seen essential in his success as a species. Keeping plenty of cover between him and his folly, the cheetah finally settled in the lengthening shadows of a knob thorn to plan his attack. Between him lay a no-man's-land of short grass affording no cover. For some of the larger predators this would be an unassailable obstacle but this would pose no problem for the blistering speed of the cheetah.
Like a sniper, trained to observe for hours and wait for the perfect moment, he watched the movements and actions of the impala. His long thick tail, so important for balance and maneuverability at high speeds, twitching occasionally, the only sign of his growing excitement. Finally, the trap was set. Inching forward, low on his belly, the cheetah positioned himself, ready to strike. Like a coiled spring, toned muscles rippled as they tensed for action. We waited, breaths held for their release. We knew we were about to witness something special. A cheetah in full flight is rarely seen by people in the wild, especially in the thicker savanna vegetation we have at Sabi Sabi. They have had to develop new hunting strategies to compensate for less room to operate at high speeds but this time, the cheetah had worked the opening that nature had designed it for.
Without warning, the attack came. Like a bullet from a gun, the cheetah exploded from his concealed position with acceleration that defies belief. Faster than the top production cars on the planet, the cheetah hit 60mp/h inside 2 seconds. A bolt of black and gold streaking across the grass. A feat of natural engineering doing what natural selection has chosen it for. The lightweight frame, enlarged nostrils, non retractable claws for grip all working in perfect harmony to propel him towards his target. The impala saw him coming and fled, they themselves so aware that danger can come from any side at any moment. For a moment the cheetah looked beaten but then he hit the afterburners… With so little time to get up to speed, the impala stood no chance with the proximity of the attack. Legs pumping like pistons, massive strides eating the ground beneath him, the cheetah singled out one of the ewes and employed the classic ankle tap. The over sized dew claw clipping the back leg and sent the impala stumbling into the turf. Like a flash, the cheetah was on top of her, strong jaws clamped down on her neck stifling any cries that would alert other predators and cutting off oxygen to the already exhausted impala.
We watched in awe as the entire event unfolded in front of us in the blink of an eye. However, we were not the only audience to this performance. As the cheetah lay beside his prize, panting heavily, trying to get air back to his oxygen-starved limbs, 3 rhinos now approached the spectacle. With no real predators to worry them, they approached the scene with apparent curiosity, their poor eyesight unable to resolve the situation to their satisfaction. A sighting is always magnified by having interactions between species. It lends itself to the bigger picture, rather than just witnessing individual characters go about their business. Though out gunned and giving away about 2000kgs in body weight, the cheetah stood its ground, ready to defend his kill against these armoured giants. Nose to nose, with only a metre or so separating them, the cheetah stood resolute over his kill, hissing and spitting at the spectators. Seemingly perplexed by this fiery little adversary, the rhinos soon moved on no doubt chuckling at the plucky little cat's defiance.
With the battle won and his prize defended, the cheetah settled down to a well earned meal. With relish, his sharp jaws opened the soft flesh of the hind quarters and began to replenish some of the energy expended during the hunt. But this unbelievable sighting was not over for us yet! From the tree line skulked the unmistakable figure of a spotted hyena. The cheetah's arch nemesis. We knew instantly that all the hard work would come to an end with the arrival of nature's principal scavenger. Quite capable of hunting for themselves, but brilliantly adapted to reap the rewards of others' labour they cheetah knew that his prize was lost. Resolutely he stood his ground, trying to get as much nourishment as possible before the inevitable happened. We know that death and taxes are inevitable, but in the cheetah world, its death and hyenas! For a moment, we thought that the two would share the spoils but with a look that could kill, the hyena took one bite and casually dragged his plunder away. The cheetah knew it had met its match and merely watched, before turning away and continuing his unending fight for survival.
Watching this filled me with so many emotions. The excitement of witnessing my first ever kill will live long in my memory but the interactions that followed will make this unforgettable. To see just one of the 3 principle characters in this soap opera would have been special in itself but to see them all was special. Of course we were rooting for the cheetah. It is not often we see this fascinating animal and get to marvel at its abilities but also to see its weaknesses first hand. To possess such blistering speed means sacrificing strength – a point perfectly highlighted in his decision not even to defend his kill against the more powerful hyena. It is no wonder that experts say that cheetahs would be extinct by now if not for man's intervention. The irony is that with the creation of national parks, larger predators have flourished in an arena that favours the strong. Cheetahs need wide open spaces to utilise their speed and the ability to avoid competition. Out competed and out muscled by all its adversaries, the cheetah must rely on good fortune and the ability to adapt to its new surroundings. This takes time, and with such limited numbers left, the question is, do they have enough.

I bought this skirt and another brand "Vintage woman's Rockabilly tutu skirt", both are not itchy, and both come inside out in the packaging, once you flip them over the skirts become full. Something about this one I Love a lot more.. It's better quality, more tulle, and the satin band around your stomach seems longer, Both tulle skirts are great quality, this one seems more fuller.

Five years after the completion of their District-wide school facilities improvements, the Board of Education of the Indian Hill Exempted Village School District elected to look at the condition of their extra-curricular facilities. MSA was hired to review the conditions of their performing arts, physical education, and inter-scholastic sports facilities with the task of creating a "road map" of immediate and long-term improvements.
A comprehensive engagement process involved all stakeholders for each of the facilities including community members, staff, faculty, coaches, boosters, students, and the Board of Education.
Long term Master Plans were developed for the Outdoor Athletic Complex, Indoor Athletic Facilities, and the Performing Arts areas. Each area has a distinct phasing plan divided into smaller projects which will allow the District to achieve smaller incremental steps towards the overall Master Plan goals.
