My first Crossfit Team Competition (or wtf is a Zou Zou?)
There are many reasons to do a Crossfit Competition (for example see: 8 reason you should do a Crossfit Competition but the number one reason is….it is just a sh*t ton of fun!
On Saturday I participated in my first Crossfit competition, the Swiss Team Challenge. The Swiss Team Challenge is a team competition for mixed teams of 4. Boxes all across Switzerland do the challenge at the same time and it consists of 6 WODs (that were, to be honest, a little bit CRAZY!). When my Box posted the competition, I didn't think I would participate. I really didn't feel like I was ready. I felt like I would hold any team back with my slowness in the metcons and, probably the biggest reason of all, I didn't want to embarass myself…and the list goes on and on. (I've had a lifetime of practice in making excuses. Seriously, I could have majored in Excuses in University).
Enter the best thing about Crossfit – the people. I was talking about my reasons for not signing up with my friend, Van-the-Great, who essentially told me I was being silly. He then said we should start a team. I was estatic and terrified – estatic because I think that secretly I really wanted to do the competition and terrified because Van-the-great is well, pretty great at Crossfit. F*ck it. I signed up.
Then we got two more members for our team including our secret weapon J. Not only is J a great crossfitter, he also has a lot of energy (like Energizer Bunny lot of energy). Big Mo made up the fourth member of our team. I think Mo joined Crossfit around the time that I did, so it was really nice to share the experience with someone with the same level of Crossfit experience as me (though he can lift a lot more than I can).
We named our team "Les Zous Zous". Honestly, I'm a bit fuzzy on the reason behind this, as the team told it to me before my slight (HA!) hangover had completely faded. But it's a word that J taught us and one that is now part of my regular Crossfit vocabulary and part of an awesome Crossfit memory.
Team Zou Zou did fantastically. In fact, we finished 13th out of a total of 60 teams. Not too bad if I do say so myself. Other teams from our box did really well, finishing 4th and 5th in the Regular level and 8th in the Firebreather level (i.e the Don't try this at home level).
In the end, I'm so glad that I did the competition. And, yes, while I was definitely slower than my teammates (who are all rockstars!), I didn't feel embarrassed, I was having too much fun…and/or just trying to breathe.
So to end this post, here is some quick advice for anyone thinking of doing their first crossfit competition:
- Join a team with someone who doesn't might if you kinda suck. (high five to Van-the-Great!)
- Read the full description of the competition (otherwise you might think there are only 2 WODs and be somewhat surprised when there are 4 more left).
- Bring snacks! You're going to get hungry and other people's snacks start to look very attractive…but after the 3rd WOD you won't be quick enough to sneak some of theirs when they aren't looking.
- I might recommend not going out with your co-workers for an extended wine night the night before….Bedtime is not 4 a.m. Do you think Camille Leblanc-Bazinet goes to bed at 4 a.m. before the Crossfit Games?!? (Actually, she probably does, because she's like 20 years old – if you're not..go to bed.)
- When it seems like the Over-the-bar-burpees will never end and like you are going to trip over the bar on the next jump. Stop, take a deep breath, and jump. They do end, and you probably won't fall. And even if you did…nobody will care – they'll just tell you to get up – because every rep counts.
Team Zou Zou forever!!!

Is your inevitable response to anyone who isn't shouting directly in your face a quizzical "Huh?" or a distracted "What?" Are your parents and siblings constantly telling you to "Turn the damn TV down!"? If so, you're either a bored and inattentive friend/family member with selective hearing loss, or one of the millions of people worldwide who are genuinely affected by hearing impairment.
Anything that affects one in six of the world's population is a serious issue, and the folks at hearing-aid company Phonak -- who admittedly have a vested interest in raising awareness of the problem -- are trying to do something to help. Phonak's new new campaign, "Hear the World," has attracted the support of an impressive cast of "Hear the World" ambassadors including Sting, Amy Winehouse, Peter Gabriel, Renee Zellwegger, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Jude Law, Moby, Annie Lennox and Common.
If the campaign could have been more imaginatively named -- they did just substitute "feed" for "hear," after all -- it is a well-meaning and legit initiative targeted at an important global problem. So click here to visit the Web site, listen to interviews with the ambassadors, take an online hearing test, find out how loud your city is on the Global Sound Map, and learn what you can do to help.

Red Bluff >> The Red Bluff-Tehama County Chamber of Commerce kicked off its annual 11 Days of Round-Up meeting Wednesday morning with a blast of "Yee-haws."
Chamber President and CEO Dave Gowan opened the meeting with Red Bluff Round-Up General Manager James Miller by filming a video welcome and the excitement in the room was evident as Gowan prompted the group to give their best hoots and hollers.
The meeting is held each year to coordinate the many community events that happen during the 11 days leading up to and through the three-day rodeo.
Round-Up President John Trede introduced some new faces to the room, including Brittany Wright, who will be handling social media for the event, and Sarah Hoffman, a Chico State University intern who majors in event planning.
Chamber of Commerce Chairwoman Lisa Hansen led the meeting and broke down the day-to-day events for the 11 Days of Round-Up.
Tough Enough to Wear Pink will remain a theme during this year's Round-Up on Sunday, including contests revolving around rodeo contestants wearing pink in honor of breast cancer awareness, Hansen said.
Fan favorites such as the bikini barrel race and mutton busting will return along with social events like the Cowboy Mixer, Kiwanis pancake breakfast and Cowboy Coffee.
Entertainment continues to be a large focus of the event. Nashville recording artist Chris Lane will be headlining the Saturday night concert during rodeo weekend at the fairgrounds with special guest and fellow country musician Morgan Wallen.
There was a strong emphasis on the downtown area and supporting local businesses, including a concert at the State Theatre and a possible pub crawl downtown one night.
New to the Round-Up is the breakaway roping event for women, eight per performance. Participants will be members of the Women's Professional Rodeo Association.
John Growney, who provides the livestock for the event, noted the importance of planning for the upcoming 100th anniversary of the Round-Up, two years out. It was suggested a committee be formed to begin planning as soon as this year's rodeo is complete.
Highlights for the 11 days include the Rotary Chili Cookoff and Car Show, Cowboy Golf Tournament, Round-Up Parade and Cowboy Church.
Gowan concluded by saying, "Right now these ideas are just vapors but they will soon be reality 'cause that's how we roll."

Nanotechnology is helping to revolutionize many technology and industry sectors, including materials science, renewable energy, biomedical technology, 3D printing and robotics manufacturing. At its most basic, nanotech relies on tailoring the structure of materials at an atomic or molecular scale, to achieve specific properties. Using nanotechnology, new materials can be fabricated that are stronger, lighter, and better electrical conductors, among other properties.
When particle sizes of solid matter in the visible scale are compared to what can be seen in a regular optical microscope, there is little difference in the properties of the particles. But when particles are created with dimensions of about 1–100 nanometers, the materials' properties change significantly from those at larger scales. This is the size scale where quantum effects rule behavior and physical properties. Thus, when particle size is made to be nanoscale, properties such as melting point, fluorescence, electrical conductivity, magnetic permeability, and chemical reactivity change as a function of the size of the particle.

God is an all-knowing God who knows when things may happen before we even know. The reason why he put the tree in the garden is to show a sign of freewill to Adam and Eve. They had chose to eat the fruit and God had given them the freewill to choose whether to serve him or not.
"The story of Adam and Eve and their downfall is quite well known by the average Christian. You remember that God placed our perfect parents in that lovely ideal setting of the Garden of Eden. They were surrounded by beauties indescribable. God said to them, "Now, look it over. This is to be your home. All the pleasures of the garden will be yours for eternity if you will just obey me." But in the very midst of the garden, God placed one tree which was set apart. God pointed this out to Adam and Eve and said, "Don't bother that tree, it is set aside, you must leave it alone." There was no question in the minds of Adam and Eve concerning the commandment of God. But, friends, the fact is that Adam and Eve disobeyed God and actually did eat of the tree which was forbidden. Many people say, "Well, I can't understand why God did such a thing anyway. Why did He place it right out in the open in the very midst of the garden,, why didn't God put an electric fence around the tree, or something by which to discourage Adam and Eve from taking of that tree?" Others have been known to say, "Well, I can't understand why God would forbid the tree anyway. He certainly didn't need to reserve anything for Himself. He didn't need the fruit of the tree."
Friends, let's see if we can find the answers to these questions today. God will only accept the service of love. Religion is not a fire escape. We must choose to obey God because of our love for Him, or else we will be serving in vain. God must have some way of knowing why we serve Him. Our very judgement will take place on this basis. God is going to look into the motives of the mind and heart and we shall be saved or lost according to our motive in serving God. So Adam and Eve had to be tested. God wanted to make them immortal. He wanted to give them that beautiful home for all time to come. But before doing so, He had to know that their love was true and deep. The test of their love was the tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil. God said, "If you love me, don't touch this tree. If you ever lose your love and confidence in me, then just eat of this tree and I will understand."
Please notice, friends, that the test came over something that had been set aside by God. God said leave it alone. He didn't elaborate, He didn't say why; there was no apparent reason as far as Adam and Eve were concerned. God seemed to be saying, "Just trust me and obey without asking the reasons why."
Let's bring this lesson closer home to us today. We perhaps are saying, "Well, I would not have eaten of the tree. I would not have disobeyed God." But I wonder, friend about that. I submit that we have exactly the same test facing us in this modern age. How are we passing the test? God says to us, "Everything which comes into your hands may be used as your own, except one-tenth. Your tithe is sacred and must be set aside for me." Now notice friends, it's not one tree this time, but one-tenth. God says, "That one-tenth is mine. You must not touch it. You must not use it." Now if I disregard this commandment I am repeating the sin of Adam, and I will be doubly guilty because I have his example before me as well as the direct commandment of God concerning my own case. There is no reason at all to leave that money alone, except that God said it is holy; it is His. This is the very same circumstance that we find with the forbidden tree in the garden of Eden.
Then again God may say to me, "Look at the days of the week. You can have all of them except one." You know, of course, that the Bible says the seventh is hallowed, it is set aside for a holy purpose. So God says "Keep your feet off the Sabbath. Don't use it for yourself at all. It is set aside for me." Now that same test was given to Adam and Eve. There's not a particle of difference in the commands that God gave them concerning the tree and the command He gives us concerning the Sabbath. Today we might look for some human reason as to why that one day should be reserved for God. I've heard people questioning about this very thing. Since the seventh day seems to appear just like the other days of the week, they will not recognize it's sanctity. One day seems to be as good as another day for rest and worship. Adam and Eve might have said the very same thing. Their line of reasoning could have been similar. That one tree in the midst of the garden certainly did not look any different from the other trees, and it's fruit was probably just as good to the taste. The difference lay in the commandment of God to leave it alone. And today, the difference is, God says, "Remember the Sabbath day, the seventh day, to keep it holy." Both tests concern something which was set aside by God, and which man was told to leave alone.
Friends, how do we measure up in this thing? Finally, you remember, Adam and Eve had to face God over eating that fruit. Every soul will face God over the two tests that have been mentioned today, exactly as Adam and Eve had to face Him. This is a serious matter. If we ever enter Heaven it will be because we love Him so dearly that we will not touch what He commands us to leave alone. You mark this down carefully friends, God is very particular about things which He has set aside. The story of Adam and Eve proves it without the shadow of a doubt."(Amazing Facts).
"9. Was eating a piece of fruit such a bad thing? Why were Adam and Eve removed from the garden?
"To him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin." James 4:17. "Sin is the transgression of the law." 1 John 3:4. "He that committeth sin is of the devil." 1 John 3:8. "And the Lord God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever." "So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life." Genesis 3:22, 24.
Answer: Yes, eating of the fruit was a sin because it was a direct rejection of one of God's few requirements. It was open rebellion against God's law and authority. By rejecting one of God's commands, Adam and Eve allied themselves with Satan, God's enemy, and thus brought separation between themselves and God (Isaiah 59:2). Satan hoped the couple would sin and then eat of the tree of life, and thus become immortal sinners. But God removed them from the garden to prevent such a tragedy.
4. But since God created Lucifer, isn't He really responsible for his sin?
Not at all. God created Lucifer a perfect, sinless angel. Lucifer made a devil of himself. Freedom to choose is a cornerstone principle of God's government. God knew Lucifer would sin when He created him. If at that point God had refused to create him, He would have been repudiating that prime principle of free choice.
"Freedom to Choose" is God's Way
So, knowing full well what Lucifer would do, God still created him. The same facts apply to the creation of Adam and Eve. And, closer to home, these facts apply to you and me. God knows before we are born how we will live, but even so, He permits us to live and choose whether to endorse His government or Satan's. God is willing to be misunderstood and falsely accused and blamed for ages, while taking the time to allow every person to freely choose whom he will follow.
Only a Loving God Would Risk Granting Full Freedom for All
This glorious, crucial gift of freedom could come only from a just, open, loving God. It is an honor and joy to serve such a Lord and friend.
Choose to Serve God
The sin problem will soon end. In the beginning, everything was "very good." Genesis 1:31. Now "the whole world lieth in wickedness." 1 John 5:19. People everywhere are choosing to serve God or Satan. Use your fantastic, God-given freedom to choose to serve the Lord
5. Why didn't God destroy the devil when he sinned, and thus end the sin problem?
Because sin was something completely new in God's universe, and its inhabitants did not understand it. Probably even Lucifer himself did not fully comprehend it at first. Lucifer was a brilliant, highly respected angelic leader. His approach was doubtless one of great concern for heaven and the angels. It possibly ran something like this: "Heaven is good, but it would be improved with more angel input. Too much unchallenged authority (as the Father and Son have) tends to blind leaders to real life. Angels should not be required to take orders. We should give orders. God knows my suggestions are correct, and He is feeling threatened. We must not permit our noble leaders who are out of touch to jeopardize the very existence of heaven. They will listen if we move in unison. We must not be weak we must act. Otherwise, we will all be ruined by a government that doesn't appreciate us."
One-Third of the Angels Joined Lucifer
Lucifer's arguments convinced many angels, and one-third joined him. If God had destroyed Lucifer immediately, some angelic beings who did not fully understand God's character may have begun to worship God through fear, saying, "Lucifer may have been correct. Be careful. If you differ with God, He may kill you." So nothing would have been settled. Instead, the problem would have been heightened.
God Accepts Only Loving, Voluntary Service
The only service acceptable to God is cheerful, voluntary service prompted by love. Obedience for any other reason is unacceptable.
God Is Giving Satan Time to Demonstrate His Principles
Satan claimed he had a better plan for the government of the universe. God is giving him time to demonstrate its principles. The Lord will abolish sin only after every soul in the universe is convinced that Satan's government is unfair, hateful, ruthless, lying, and destructive.
The Universe Is Watching This World
The Bible says, "We are made a spectacle [margin says "theatre"] unto the world, and to angels, and to men." 1 Corinthians 4:9. The entire universe is watching as we each play a part in the controversy between Christ and Satan. As the controversy ends, every soul will fully understand the principles of both kingdoms and will have chosen to follow either Christ or Satan. Those who have chosen to ally with sin and Satan will be destroyed with him, and God's people will be taken to the eternal safety of their heavenly home"(Amazing Facts).
Caller: And my interpretation was that if everything was planned out to the tenth degree then, if I'm born into sin, then I'm going to hell.
Pastor Doug: Yeah if that was true, you would be right but see I believe that there's a big difference between God planning everything and God knowing everything. God's plan for everybody is to be saved. Now let me give you some Scripture: God who will have all men to be saved - that's 1 Timothy 2:4. And then God says in 2 Peter chapter 3 He's not willing that any should perish. So that's God's perfect Will but we know many will perish because they don't choose.
And there's that verse that says many are called but few are chosen - and what that means is that many are called but few choose to respond, in the original translation - and so we all have freedom of choice. That's why Jesus invites everybody in The Great Invitation: whosoever will, let him come. Come unto me all who are weary and heavy laden. And not all will choose. Judas chose to turn his back on Christ. Jesus knew what Judas would do, but He didn't make him do it - do you see what I'm saying?(Amazing Facts).
In my argument I am agreeing on we are sinners.When saying being born into sin its not saying when we are babies we sin and that's it.The verse is saying that we are born into a sinful world.The thing is that we are saved by God's grace.Though we are born into sin we are not doomed.Instead we are saved by the grace of God.
The cancer of sin has infected the entire human race, "for all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God." Romans 3:23. However, the gospel of Jesus is the good news of salvation from sin. The sinner may come to the Lord in full assurance that the grace of God is sufficient to forgive him of all sin. "Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God." Verses 24,25.
The plan of redemption provides for more than the forgiveness of past sins. It also provides a way of escape from continued sin. We need to experience not only forgiveness of sin, but also victory over sin. We cannot be saved in our sins, we must be saved from our sins.
There are certain clearly defined steps which lead one into sin. "Every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death." James 1:14,15. The steps as indicated are lust and enticement which lead to sin and death.(Amazing Facts).
God's plan is to give us a chance to see his love.For God's love is much more than anything we can know.So he shows through us his love.
Here is the secret of inner strength that fortifies man with divine power. The mind that is strengthened with truth and the promises of Scripture is a mighty bulwark the devil, with all of his supernatural power, cannot penetrate. Close communion with God, through prayer and the study of the Word, gave to Jesus a living faith that brought victory over temptation. Yes, there is power in the Word. How important, indeed, that we, like Jesus, live a life of prayer and study, for here is "the way of escape" from sin, This is the divine plan to "deliver the godly out of temptation." The divine nature unites with the human to resist and overcome temptation. "Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises (in the Scriptures): that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust." 2 Peter 1:4.(Amazing Facts).
Now Jesus' words take on real meaning. "That which is born of flesh is flesh, and we are all born of the flesh." We are all sinful by birth. We inherit Adam's sinful nature and indeed a sinful flesh. A sinful nature cannot inherit heaven. This is where the new birth comes in. We must be born again and come into possession of a new nature, a spiritual nature. Paul describes the difference between these natures in Romans 8:1, 5-10. "There is now therefore no condemnation to them which are in Christ who walk not after the flesh, but after the spirit. For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh, they that are after the spirit the things of the spirit. For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace."
Paul continues on to say, "Because the carnal mind is enmity against God, for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God. But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness."
There it is, friend, becoming a Christian involves a new birth. It is dying to your old fleshly sinful nature and letting Christ dwell in you by His Holy Spirit to give you a spiritual nature. Paul described it in Galatians 2:20, "I am crucified with Christ, nevertheless, I live, yet not I, but Christ liveth in me, And the life I now live, I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me."(Amazing Facts).
1. How could one Man's death pay the penalty for the sins of all mankind? I have lived a terrible life of sin. I am afraid God would have to do something very special to atone for someone so evil.
Romans 3:23 tells us that "all have sinned." Because "the wages of sin is death" (Romans 6:23) and since "all have sinned," therefore "something special" is required for every person who has been born. Only One whose life is equal to all mankind could die for the sins of the race. Because Jesus is the Creator and Author of all life, the life He laid down was equivalent to the lives of all people who would ever live. Not only did atonement have to be made by One whose life could stand for all other created beings, but the One who died the atoning death had to be able to rise from that death. Why? In order to administer the benefits of the atonement to all who would apply for it in faith. "Wherefore He is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them." Hebrews 7:25.(amazing facts).
4. Is there anything I can do to help God save me?
No. His plan is wholly of grace (Romans 3:24; 4:5); it is "the gift of God." Ephesians 2:8. It is true that as God grants us grace through faith, He also gives us the desire and strength to obey Him. This results in compliance with His laws. So, even this obedience results from God's free grace. Obedience--the service and allegiance of love--is the true test of discipleship and a natural fruit of faith in Jesus Christ.
So in conclusion, we do have a chance to be saved and have eternal life. We are God's very elect people created in "his own image" to represent the true meaning of his grace and love.We are not born into sin because God's mean.We are given grace and his judgement is righteous.
"The Ancient of days did sit, ... his throne was like the fiery flame." "The judgment was set, and the books were opened." Daniel 7:9, 10. "We have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous." 1 John 2:1. "The Father ... hath committed all judgment unto the Son." John 5:22. "The Devil, ... the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night."

First Mention of Possible Call for APD Chief, Deputy Chief to Resign
Board Chair: 'We don't have any idea what the truth is'
'If it turns out that there is indeed wrongdoing, either criminal or administrative, we would probably be meeting again and asking those people to voluntarily step down' – civilian oversight board chair Beth Mohr
The head of Police Oversight Board says the agency might soon be asking Albuquerque Police Chief Gorden Eden and Deputy Chief Robert Huntsman to resign over allegations that police officers altered or deleted lapel camera videos.
Whether that happens depends on the outcome of investigations into those allegations made in November by APD's former records custodian Reynaldo Chavez.
In a nine-page affidavit, Chavez said that officers were told not to write police reports until their lapel camera videos had been reviewed. He alleged that videos in two officer-involved shootings had been altered.
Probe by FBI or N.M. State Police Sought
On Nov. 30, the POB voted to ask the FBI, the U.S. Department of Justice and/or the New Mexico State Police to open criminal investigations into the allegations of video tampering by APD.
POB Chair Beth Mohr was blunt about the potential consequences of those investigations.
"We don't have any idea what the truth is," Mohr said during a special POB meeting called to discuss Chavez's allegations. "In the meantime, we have a chief and a deputy chief, who, the way I read it, stand accused of wrongdoing. So I'm not sure what to do about that. I'm not even precisely sure what to recommend about that.
"If it turns out that there is indeed wrongdoing, either criminal or administrative, we would probably be meeting again and asking those people to voluntarily step down. We're not there yet, I don't think."
Zero confidence in APD, City Hall
What was clear at the meeting was that the POB doesn't trust APD or City Attorney Jessica Hernandez to do the investigations or to hire a private firm to do them.
"It appears that the veracity of APD is in question here, and obviously APD cannot investigate itself," POB member David Ring III said during the meeting. "I'm wondering if there is any entity in the state that we can trust to do this?"
Mohr said investigators would need expertise in computer forensics, Taser lapel camera video systems and evidence.com, a cloud platform to which lapel videos are uploaded.
City Attorney Hernandez said recently that her office was looking to hire an outside firm to investigate Chavez's allegations. But Mohr questioned whether a firm hired by the city could be truly independent.
"Somebody is going to need to be independent from the police department and the city and the city attorney," Mohr said. "Anybody who is hired by the city attorney is going to have some allegiance to the city attorney, and depending on that person and their expertise and their relationship, they could be extremely independent or they could not be particularly independent if they are hired by the city attorney.
"There is only so much independence that can occur when the city attorney is defending the police department and also hiring the investigator."
Allegations Cast on All APD Cases before Civilian Board
The POB also voted to recommend to the city that a staffer from the Civilian Police Oversight Agency, which investigates citizen complaints against police officers and officer involved shootings, be involved in selecting any person or firm the city hires to investigate Chavez's allegations.
The POB is charged with recommending discipline for police officers in complains filed against them by members of the public. It also reviews all police officer involved shootings. The shooting cases require POB members to review lapel cam video. Ring questioned whether the board could trust any of the videos its members have already viewed.
"Is it just limited to one case, or are we looking at everything we have?" Ring asked CPOA Executive Director Ed Harness.
"It does cause question about the veracity of any of the videos that are being reviewed," Harness replied. "It brings into question everything that is viewed by this body."
"I was afraid of that," Ring replied.

Stingrays Push Greenville To Edge With Game 5 WinApr 21, 2017
The South Carolina Stingrays secured a 3-2 lead in their first round best-of-seven series Friday night with a 4-2 win over the Greenville Swamp Rabbits in Game 5 at the Bon Secours Wellness Arena.
Rob Flick had a goal and an assist in the contest to up his postseason total to eight points (five goals, three assists), while goaltender Parker Milner made 22 saves to earn his third consecutive victory for South Carolina.
Greenville took the initial lead in the game in the first period on a goal by Matt Prapavessis at 5:54 of the first period to make it 1-0. The Swamp Rabbits took their advantage into the first intermission, despite South Carolina outshooting their opponent 9-6.
The Stingrays evened the score early on in the second period on a goal by Domenic Monardo from Flick at 3:14. A give-and-go play set Monardo free in front of the Greenville net. The Oakville, Ont. native brought the puck to the backhand and patiently waited before lifting it into the top of the net over Swamp Rabbits' goaltender Jeff Malcolm.
58 seconds later, forward Derek Arnold found open space in the Greenville end and beat Malcolm with a wrist shot for his first goal of the playoffs to give South Carolina a 2-1 lead. Defenseman Cody Corbett was given the lone assist on the tally, which gave the Stingrays their first lead of the series during a game played in Greenville.
Then at 8:31 of the second, Flick scored his fifth of the postseason to push the Stingrays' lead to 3-1. Assists on the goal were credited to Joe Devin as well as Kelly Zajac.
With the helpers, Devin and Zajac have now picked up at least a point in all five games of the series, both totaling six points. Devin has two goals and four assists, while Zajac has three goals and three assists.
Greenville cut the game to 3-2 on a goal by Tristan King at 13:12 of the final period, but the Stingrays responded quickly on a strike by John Parker at 14:33 to restore their two-goal lead at 4-2.
Parker's second goal in as many games came off a rush that was set up by Patrick Gaul, who earned his first assist and third point of the postseason.
The Stingrays finished 1-for-5 on the power play in the contest while holding Greenville scoreless in eight man-advantage opportunities (0-for-8). South Carolina outshot Greenville 30-24 in the game. Malcolm made 26 saves and took the loss for the Swamp Rabbits.
South Carolina now has a chance to close out the series at home when the teams return to the Lowcountry for Game 6 on Monday night at 7:05 p.m. at the North Charleston Coliseum.
Single game tickets for Game 6 at the North Charleston Coliseum are on sale now at the arena's box office and online at ticketmaster.com.

April 19, 2009 (CHICAGO) --With a $6-billion city budget staring him in the face, Mayor Richard Daley says he doesn't want to layoff anyone while negotiating with labor unions.
"We want to sit down with the unions and say, 'How do we figure this out without laying anybody off and without hurting the tax payers?'" said the mayor.
Mayor Daley said 80 percent of the city's operating costs go to employees, most of them unionized. However, the mayor declined to offer specifics on what he wants from union leaders.
Daley added city revenue projections are about $82 million short.

There you go, you did it! lol I have Google Reader and just love it, so much easier knowing when someone has a new post up. I remember the old days when one had to visit every blog just to see if they had posted or not, very time consuming. xoxoReplyDelete
I'm with Pea. I do have a list on my blog of my daily reads but then I have about 300 blogs in Google Reader. Knowing when there are new posts up saves so much time. Gives me more time to find new blogs.ReplyDelete
Good for you. Figuring out internet stuff is hard for me too, I'm so proud of myself when I get something right.ReplyDelete
I've seen these lists on a few blogs but I didn't know what it was called. How awesome that you were able to figure it out. It takes me forever to add something, and even longer than forever if I want it to work.ReplyDelete

About the time things were drawing to a close last year at ImageMovers Digital–the digital feature film studio where I worked–Joshua Orellana, the assistant production manager for our fx & crowd simulation department, seemed to be on a mission to keep growing his hair out until the final days when the studio would close its doors. One day, though, he decided that he'd had enough (possible due to constantly being mistaken for a more well know religious figure) and announced plans to get it cut. I couldn't let his hard-won look end up on the barber's floor undocumented, so I arranged to make a photograph of Josh. His long locks and "saintly" commitment to supporting the studio during those last days, when our staff was dwindling off to their next jobs, prompted me to photograph him in our screening room, using the projected, winged logo of our company as a conveniently halo-like backdrop…but, of course, thrown suitable out of focus to avoid any perception of corporate impropriety.
That original photograph (see farther below) became the foundation for this photo-based illustration, or "Photo-Graphic" as I call it–entitled, "State of Grace"–depicting Josh and the iconic hangars at Hamilton field where we worked. While the juxtaposition is definitely intended as humorous and over the top, there's still something very real about this unique moment in Josh's life at the studio that I was striving to capture in the portrait at the heart of this image. So, despite the humor, the homage to both Josh and the spirit at the studio is sincere; and hopefully the first of several I will make that recall some of the great people I had the privilege of working with at ImageMovers Digital.Close-up crop detail –>> Click to Enlarge
In exploring this particular style of imagery, the portrait of Josh was especially suitable to begin working with, as I continue to experiment and strive to get my head around where I want to take this "photo-graphic" look. Some of the most wonderfully lush things about this style, though, can only be appreciated in a large view, especially in the form of a fine photographic print. Sadly, a lot of this is lost in the small format of this blog; so you're encouraged to click the crop-view image on the left to get a hint of what you can't see in the image above.
What ties this kind of imagery back to my more traditional photography work, is that it is still about starting with strong photography of a subject that you care about. It is as much about the craft of making a great image at the time you release the shutter as it's ever been. The "photo-graphic" style, though, is then about jumping off from there to further refine the subject down to a more essential and emotional focus, and to enhance that effort in rich and complex ways that might not be possible with a more traditional photographic presentation of the subject.
Speaking of original photography: The photograph of Josh was made with a tripod mounted Canon EOS-1Ds Mark III camera using a Canon EF 85mm ƒ/1.2 L II lens. The exposure was 1 second at ƒ/1.2 to capture the theater lighting and projected logo, with the main light on Josh coming from a Canon 580ex II speed light flash, set to manual mode and mounted onto a handheld Lastolight softbox rig. The short flash duration kept Josh sharp, despite the long ambient room exposure. The wide ƒ/1.2 aperture made for extremely shallow depth of field and was challenging to focus in the dim theater, as even subtle shifts in Josh's position would throw his eyes out of focus.
While I was able to compose the image to position the projected logo as I wanted behind Josh's head, the depth-of-field was so shallow on the ƒ/1.2 lens that it lost too much of it's structure and made the halo concept less obvious than I'd hoped. In the end I used a separate photograph I shot at the same session, of the logo with more detail. The original too-blurry logo was then swapped for this less out-of-focus version to create the optimized base portrait seen below.
The other image elements of the hangar, tower and clouds were from photographs I actually shot around the studio complex. I wanted everything in the image to have a real basis in the studio and its location.
The image was further stylized by weaving a number of textures into the final surface of the image. I photographed many types of papers and surfaces, discarding several initial choices as too complex and distracting to the layout. Those that were finally selected were applied in combinations and through various layers of masks to achieve the right contribution of detail and color. Despite working in stages, my Photoshop image files still reached over 8GB for some steps. Throughout the process, the challenge was to bring in these other elements without losing the essential simplicity of the original photography's composition.Here is the optimized base portrait of Josh Orellana (with modified background logo) that became the jump-off point for the final "photo-graphic." As a traditional photograph (not counting the logo mod!) it's actually quite nice–though still begging for a bit more color and tone adjustment. It just lacks, as a more literal image, the emotional appeal that I was really looking to achieve here.

�Exif MM * � � � � � �( 1 $ �2 �; � �� �i The beginning of this years winter was really strange in Switzerland because we had to wait a very long time till the moment to see the first snow. Anyway … I was again at one of my favorite lakes one month ago. And as you can see … far and wide no one sign of the white thing. And although it does not look like it was quite cold and during several weeks we barely saw one single cloud in the sky. So I decided once again to take a photo at the end of the night. I made this photo here one hour before sunrise and I was happy to have the last stars sparkle, while on the right side the first light of an imminent sunrise was gaining the field. And among us … I love the sunrises in winter more than those in the summer season. They are not so pompous and huge in the winter season, but I can say from my experience that in winter the air is cleaner and clearer, and the colors are more varied than in the summer time. It's really a special moment on a winter morning to experience such a spectacle if you decide to get up early … and I can recommend it to anyone ;-)

If you were a fan of Real Housewives of Miami when it was on the air from 2011 until 2013, you know who Romain Zago is. He and his then fiance, Joanna Drupa were featured on the show in the second and the third seasons. He also owns a nightclub in Miami called Mynt Lounge. If you want to learn more about Romain, read on.
He Wasn't the Original Owner of Mynt Lounge
When Romain first started at Mynt, he wasn't the owner. He was actually the VIP Director. During this time, he was host to a variety of A-List celebrities including Britney Spears, Giselle Bundchen, and Paris Hilton. It didn't take long before he realized that he wanted to be much more than the VIP Director, and he bought the club. Since taking over the place, it has remained one of Miami's most popular hot spots.
He Works Hard to Keep His Club Popular
Romain understands the importance of keeping a club from getting old. He understands that it doesn't take long for a club to become irrelevant, therefore, he remodels his club every summer. He spends over $1 million each year to breathe new life into his club. When the doors reopen after the remodel, people line up at the doors just to see how much the club has changed.
He's Married
Romain is married to a model, actress, and reality television star, Joanna Krupa. The pair dating for a few years, and on June 13, 2013, the couple was married in Arivaca, Carlsbad, California.
He Isn't Superstitious
When many couples get married, they make an agreement that the groom won't see the bride before the ceremony. This is a very common superstition. When Romain and Joanna got married, he didn't care about any silly superstitions. He was taking photos of Joanna in her dress before the ceremony. He told In Touch Magazine that he didn't have to worry about a silly superstition dooming his wedding because he knew that they were meant to be and their marriage would last a lifetime.
The Cheating Scandal
When Romain and Joanna were still dating, they were involved in a cheating scandal and the whole thing played out during the second season of the Real Housewives of Miami. At the time, Joanna was upset, feeling like Romian was more distant than usual. She suspected that he was cheating and she started digging around. Eventually, she ended up finding correspondence online between Romain and another woman who was a dancer at one of his clubs. He announced on the show that he was planning on leaving Joanna for the dancer. Joanna decided to fight her her relationship and Romain ended things with the dancer and he decided to commit to Joanna completely.
Romain and His Wife and Considering Starting a Family
According to an interview with the Daily Dish, Romain and his wife discussed their desire to have children. During the interview, Joanna said that she didn't really have a timeline for when it would happen, however, Romain stated that within a year he wanted to have a baby on the way. They both stated that they couldn't wait to take their relationship to the next level and start a family.
He was Born in France
Romain was born on November 8, 1972, in France, however, he didn't' grow up there. He grew up in Brazil and Italy. Although he was born in France and lived in Brazil and Italy, his ethnicity is Polish-American.
He Speaks More Than Just English
English might be the language that Romain speaks the most, however, in total, he is fluent in five different languages.
He Had a Difficult Past
According to Joanna, Romain went to see a sex therapist to try to save their relationship. While talking about his session on Real Housewives of Miami, she talked about his visit with the therapist and the fact that he was abused for several years, which is something that he isn't proud of. She believes that the abuse is part of the reason for his womanizing ways.
He Is a Very Rich Man
Romain does great financially. Thanks to his nightclub and the two seasons that he appeared on The Real Housewives of Miami, he has a net worth of $15 million.
Now the Real Housewives of Miami is no longer filming, you might need to visit Romain's nightclub if you want to learn more about him. At the very least, he and his wife could end up in the tabloids any day. You never know.

What's the service like?
Worship at Our Redeemer is liturgical in nature. That means that it follows a pattern for worship that has been used by the Christian church for thousands of years. You can expect that there will be hymns and songs, prayers, readings from God's Word, and a sermon.
Our services are conveniently printed out in a service folder so that it's easy to follow along. Check out a recent service folder here.
What about our kids?
Kids of all ages are welcome at Our Redeemer. We encourage children and their parents to grow in faith together as they hear God's Word and sing his praise (and if your kids make a little bit of noise, don't sweat it! We're just glad they're with us).
We also have a nursery available should you need to step out with your child.
Listen to the children of Our Redeemer singing during a service.
Where do I sit?
Feel free to sit wherever you'd like; there's no assigned seating. Our ushers will assist you if you need help finding a seat.
What should I wear?
There's no dress code! Come as you are. We aren't worried about what you're wearing.

Ramadan is a blessed month that comes once every year. For all Muslims across the world, Ramadan is a month which they always wait to come because it's beautiful and full of blessings. In order to stay energized and hydrated during fasting in the day, you shouldn't skip suhoor. Yes, the idea of having not interrupted sleep sounds tantalizing, but you should eat your suhoor
Experiment With Your Family.
Speaking of suhoor, eating meals that are largely carbohydrates can cause blood sugar fluctuation and leave you feeling tired, headachy, and moody. So here go excellent healthy foods to keep you energized during fasting.
- Dates
Dates are blessed foods mentioned multiple times in both the Quran and Sunnah. Dates are a great little nutrient powerhouse and good to be part of your suhoor meal.
- Cheesy savory steel cut oatmeal with avocado and fried egg
These savory oats are well-balanced of complex carbs, healthy fats, and protein, and you can easily adjust the recipe to feed your whole family.
- Quinoa breakfast bars
These bars are mouthwatering big-batch breakfast that you can pack and take with you on the road trip if you plan to fast while traveling.
- Cottage cheese breakfast bowl
Put together this high-protein cottage cheese bowl in just five minutes or less. These are very delicious.
- Breakfast egg muffin with spinach and mushroom
If spinach and mushroom aren't really your best friends, you can try using other ingredients like kale, butternut squash, tomatoes, etc.
- Ultimate vegan breakfast burrito
You can make the veggies, chickpeas, and seitan the night before. Toss it all into a burrito in under five minutes in suhoor.
Yes, those are 6 excellent filling foods for suhoor you can experiment with your family to keep the body stay energized. Aren't they so mouth-watering and healthy? Happy fasting!

Three words starting with "B" give you a quick snapshot of Owensboro, Kentucky –barbecue, bourbon and bluegrass.
Barbecue is a magnet all year long for lovers of smoky pork, chicken and a distinctive regional favorite: mutton, called mature lamb by some. Visitors flock to two big restaurants, Moonlite Bar-B-Q Inn and Old Hickory Restaurant, as well as to numerous smaller barbecue joints. Let the smoke be your guide.
Barbecue aromas permeate the entire downtown early every May for the International Bar-B-Q Festival. Seriously competitive teams chase the Governor's Cup, and scores of amateur pit masters show off their skills. The festival kicks off a series of barbecue picnics at the area's Catholic parishes that lasts past Labor Day. One parish has had a barbecue picnic for more than 100 years, and they all are the epitome of eating local.
Owensboro's second "B," bourbon, celebrates a connection to Kentucky's famous libation. The O.Z. Tyler Kentucky Bourbon Distillery is producing spirits and offering tours and tastings in a structure built as a distillery in 1885. Nearby is The Miller House, where a downstairs space called Spirits offers more than 400 bourbons.
Bluegrass, the final "B," is the musical form that brings fame to the area and why the city is home to the International Bluegrass Music Museum. Bill Monroe, the Father of Bluegrass Music, grew up in tiny Rosine in adjacent Ohio County, and bluegrass pilgrims often build their itineraries around the Bill Monroe Homeplace, the museum and a bluegrass festival.
The biggest of those festivals is ROMP, a four-day explosion of music, camping and camaraderie every June. Other opportunities to enjoy live bluegrass music include Fridays After 5 in the summer, Bluegrass on the Banks, and jam sessions at various locations around town.
Owensboro is two hours southwest of Louisville, two hours northwest of Nashville and three hours east of St. Louis.

I've been dating this handsome guy for a few blissful months. He recognizes my baking as my calling in life and has come to understand the wonderful world of ovens and recipes and dealing with brainless clients. He has also managed to somehow mellow me down. I noticed I'm not as sarcastic as I used to be and I'm quite chilled when it comes to dealing with morons or when things don't go as planned. It's weird but I guess that "love" thing has that effect on people.
As we were nearing our fifth month anniversary, it came as no surprise when he asked me one evening if I could bake a cake for his mum's 70th birthday. As we were still in bed when he asked me that question, (me with a big smile on my face), I immediately said yes without thinking too much about it.
I mean it's a cake. I do cakes for a living. It wasn't til I was in my kitchen an hour later that it hit me. I was gonna bake a cake for the woman whose son I was dating. Oh sweet mother of cupcakes, what have I done?
The stress and the pressure immediately came in and I called my BFFs to ask for advice. One said I shouldn't have agreed to it. Another one said, chill and go with it. I began to mentally search thru my head for recipes. Should I bake to impress? Should I go with the classics? Should I stab myself with a candy thermometer?
I'm sure many of you understand my predicament. Baking for picky clients is one thing but baking for a potential mother in law is a whole other thing. This woman has baked cakes and cooked for her baby boy since he came out of her womb and here comes this self-professed baking professional who will be baking a cake for her on her 70th birthday!
So, in the end, I decided to do what I know best, I stuck to one of my classics—which was a twist on the classic hummingbird. And guess what? She loved it! Well, she wasn't being enthusiastically in love with it but she did say "I like it a lot". Which was good enough for me. And my man couldn't stop thanking me and showing me affection over the fact that I made a hit with his mum. So one big crisis has been averted. Woohoo!
Have a great week everybody!

Doctors believe it will take Khloe Kardashian's sportsman husband Lamar Odom two years to fully mentally recover from his ongoing health drama.
The fallen basketball player is facing an uphill battle to regain his health after he was found unconscious in a Nevada brothel in October (15). He remained in a coma for several days, during which he suffered multiple strokes, but he has made great strides in his recovery since he was transferred to Los Angeles' Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, and he is now receiving regular physical therapy sessions to help him learn how to walk and speak again.
Reality TV star Khloe has been by his side throughout the medical crisis, and she reveals doctors initially thought he only had hours to live.
"They told me that he had four hours," she recalls of the moment she learned of Lamar's initial hospitalization. "It's a horrible call to get. Getting to the hospital and knowing he's in a coma and having to run these tests or make medical decisions - it's terrifying."
Khloe, who recently called off plans to expedite her 2013 divorce from Lamar, tells breakfast show Today the former Los Angeles Lakers star still has obstacles to overcome on the road to recovery, but his progress is promising.
"He's OK," she says. "Every day is different. The good thing is he's off of medical machines that will keep him alive. He's learning how to walk again and learning... cognitive therapy and speech therapy. They (doctors) think, like, within a year-and-a-half to two years that, mentally, he might be fully recovered. But they don't know."
Khloe is currently struggling with her own health issues after reportedly contracting a serious staph infection in the hospital ward where Lamar is being treated.
The illness has left her bedridden and she was forced to cancel a Houston, Texas book signing for her new lifestyle release Strong Looks Better Naked on Wednesday (18Nov15).
However, the condition hasn't stopped Khloe from taking critics to task online - on Wednesday night, she blasted several Twitter users who insisted she cannot remain legally wed to Lamar while dating her new sports star boyfriend, Houston Rockets shooting guard James Harden, suggesting her actions contradict her marriage vows.
"(The) divorce is still going forward," she fired back. "Doesn't mean I won't be there through sickness and health. I've proven that."
Responding to another comment, she tweeted, "You should have said those (things) to the man who went against all our vows. Judge yourself. F**k off"."
"I think the painkillers I'm on and tweeting is probably not the best thing," she later stated. "Signing off.... Antibiotics +painkillers + tweeting does not equal anything good lol (laugh out loud)."

Almost immediately after I accepted the job offer from Outward Bound in Moab, UT, I started planning out an epic road trip in my mind. Since I was going to have to make the drive anyway, I figured I might as well make it fun and see some cool sights along the way, rather than just some CAFOs in Kansas. I contemplated several possible routes and ended up with the northern one; Westminster to Chicago to Sioux Falls, SD to the Badlands and Mount Rushmore, then south through Wyoming, Boulder and Denver, then on to Moab.
Chris flew to Baltimore and we left early the next morning. It just over 13 hours to get to the Windy City, but it didn't seem that long. My college roommate, Megan, lives in the northern suburbs, so we got to see the skyline and drive by the White Sox stadium on the way. She had beers and a delicious Chicago deep dish pizza in our hands almost instantly, definitely the best thing after a long day in the car.
The next morning, we got up and went for a run on this gorgeous, wooded trail near Megan's house. The trail seemed to go all over the place, even really close to her neighborhood. It was a beautiful run, and it was really great to see so many Chicagoans out exercising. We followed up the run with breakfast at a cafe right by the trail. I had the most delicious vegetarian Eggs Benedict (my favorite).
We headed into the city and let Megan be our tour guide barbie. Stop numero uno: The Sears Tower. We went all the way to the top and got to see the beautiful views from all sides, and stand on the plexiglass floor they have. Pretty crazy.
Next, we traveled the streets to see the famous bean in Millenium Park. It was pretty cool to see. From there, we enjoyed a few beers along the Chicago River before headed back to Wrigleyville to enjoy delicious (yet very spicy) Thai food prior to a comedy show at a bar that was quite hilarious.

More people are cooking a wider range of foods on a more diverse selection of grills and smokers, using more interesting fuels and flavorings than ever before. The bad news? There is no bad news. Just more great grilling and smoking for the year to come. And now, some of those trends: [caption id="attachment_15336" align="alignnone" width="480"] Left...Read more →
