Everybody needs security. You can never have enough of it. Whether it be your family, business or assets, you want to make sure that they are protected at all times. Having a peace of mind in today's world is priceless. And that's exactly what we offer to our clients.
These firms are also working to prevent violence committed by and against young people by providing bodyguards.
Check out our list of security services below.
We offer security officers in uniform who can be armed or unarmed. They are perfect for controlling access to your business and patrolling to prevent crime from happening. Our guards protect construction sites, residential properties and industrial buildings.
Companies sometimes hire armed bodyguards to assist with hostile employee terminations. Others hire us to be their personal armed drivers and/or drive their spouse and children around. Our professional bodyguards are also great for protecting your estate. We can provide a guard shack or they can be parked in a security vehicle in front of your house.
Our fire guards are certified and ready to respond 24 hours a day. Whether your sprinkler system is not working or you need fire guards after your building had a fire, we are your company. Affordable rates and quality services is what you can expect from us.
Before you hire private security guards for your business or event, it is essential that you understand what type of individuals would best suit your needs. Today there are countless top security guard companies touting for business both online and offline. Take a moment to consider the following tips which if understood should allow you to request the most reliable and professional security guards.
At the outset you will want to be certain that the people you hire can communicate clearly with your staff or guests. If you will have visitors who do not have a strong command of the English language, you will need to make sure that some of the security guards are able to speak their dialect. Good communication skills can ensure that instructions are understood and that any conflicts can be resolved easily.
All private security guards should have excellent observation skills. They need to have been trained to detect or identify potential hazards and problems before they develop into a more serious situation. The training the guards have undertaken needs to have involved acquiring the best observation techniques.
As with many professions, experience can guarantee a good service. If a security guard has only recently completed their training, they may be over eager to perform well. Also, they may not have the knowledge that would allow them to deal with potential threats in a diplomatic and peaceful manner.
Never hire a security guard unless they have passed a training course. Unfortunately, there are security companies in NYC who take on board security personnel who have no training or understanding of how to deal with problems when they arise. Only source guards through a private security firm that has a good reputation, you would not want to end up with a lawsuit on your hands if an unqualified security officer assaults a member of the public.
Security guards should be able to deter criminal behavior by their presence alone. If there is an individual who was planning to commit a crime against your property, the sight of a well dressed and diligent security guard can make them think twice. The security personnel do not have to be big or intimidating, all that is required is to appear and act professionally.
If possible, carry out a background check into the individuals before agreeing to have them patrol your property or event. Their past occupations should provide you with an understanding of how they will perform. Many of today's private security officers have a background in the armed forces or police, as a general rule those who have worked in the police force are more likely to pause before resorting to physical aggression.
There is nothing wrong with informing the security company that you would personally like to interview the potential guards prior to allowing them to take up the contract. By doing so you will not only have an understanding of the type of individuals on the company's books, you should also be able to pick and choose those guards who you want to use.

Scott Watches WCW Fall Brawl '93
by Scott at 12/17/2011 02:30:00 PMLabels: 1993, scott's mission from god, wcw
As Rafiki said, "It is time."
The last time I did one of these was on February 16, and it was Clash of the Champions XXIV from Daytona Beach. When last we were with The WCW, Steve Austin & Brian Pillman were starting to kinda have some issues, Arn Anderson & Paul Roma had won the tag team titles, Maxx Payne sucked, The Shockmaster debuted, Ricky Steamboat had won the TV title, Ric Flair and Sting were considering making out, Cactus Jack was a pain in WCW World Heavyweight Champion Big Van Vader's big van ass, and Davey Boy Smith was treading water as an alleged main eventer.
So let's do this. Kids are going back to school and blah blah, IT'S THE BRAWL IN THE FALL. Fuck yeah! Houston, get ready for this one! Ricky Steamboat vs Lord Steven Regal! Arn & Roma vs Nasty Boys! Flair vs Rude! WAR GAMES w/Shockmaster! Astro Arena! September 19, 1993! The first-ever Fall Brawl!
Michael Buffer!
World Television Title Match: Lord Steven Regal (w/Sir William) vs Ricky Steamboat (c)
Steamboat has injured ribs due to a beatdown on Saturday Night. So Ricky comes out brawling and tosses Regal onto the walkway. Goddamn it I love the walkway. This was back before Regal's toughness was put over and the brawling is sold as being to Regal's scientific disadvantage. Regal goes after the back and ribs after he switches the advantage, and we hit the mat for a while. Good match - 100% as solid as you'd expect. Steamboat gets the flying crossbody but hesitates on the cover due to the ribs. Steamboat skins the cat, but Sir William conks him in the head, setting up Regal's finishing German suplex and the first TV title win for Lord Steven Regal.
In the Mean Gene position, Eric Bischoff is with The Nasty Boys. They are truly nasty. They got a big big secret sittin at the end of Nasty Street.
Big Sky vs Charlie Norris
Why. Handful chants "We Want Flair," then moments later follows it with "Boring." You said it, dickheads. As largely disinterested as the crowd is, Sabretooth gets a mild reaction for gloating over his show of power. I guess WCW saw the major money that was just flowing from Tatanka and decided they needed an Indian dude too. Norris kicks Sky in the head and wins. That could be the final sentence, names changed, for most fights in history.
Holy shit a handicapped dude interviews Davey Boy Smith. I did some Scott Dunlap research and apparently this was the only appearance. The best part? He's better than everyone in WWE today. at least he gives a shit.
FUCK YES THE 2 COLD SONG. ERRYBODY HERE COME 2 COLD SCORPIO. "You know they made a movie, White Men Can't Jump?" "Yeah." "White men can't dance." "Well, they can wrestle." Good call, Tony.
2 Cold, he wants the belts. He keeps saying "we want the belts," but Bagwell isn't committing to anything. Orndorff and the doofus Equalizer are about as mismatched as a tag team can get. Yet he manages to outsmart Bagwell. Well, for a moment anyway. Eventually Equalizer gets some heat on Bagwell because that's really exciting. Orndorff gets in to hook on a thrilling bearhug. Scorpio's hot tag comes at the expense of Equalizer. Flying crossbody gets a two. Now they all fight! Boy this is the type of great tag team wrestling I just love. Goofy finish comes when Orndorff puts Equalizer down with a knee by accident and 2 Cold delivers the 450. But don't worry. The Equalizer will get his heat back. This match actually wasn't bad or anything, just a little off.
Eric Bischoff speaks with new world television champion Lord Steven Regal, who has fixed his hair and re-donned his cape.
Shanghai Pierce (w/Tex Slazenger) vs Ice Train
Why. Shanghai Pierce is very big, but Ice Train is bigger, a little bit. Ice Train wins with a powerslam, proving his superior bigness. Then he beats up both the honkies.
Missy Hyatt is truly nasty. Truly. Too much of this match involves Paul Roma for my liking. Though Wikipedia says that "Paul Roma and Arn Anderson were an incredible tag team" on the Paul Roma page, I will just say I don't agree. Roma's best work was with Power & Glory. That is a fact. Fans chant "Porky Pig" at Knobbs. Fair enough. This Arn Anderson and Paul Roma as babyfaces bit isn't for me. Arn Anderson should only be a babyface when the fucks he's fighting are so despicable and disrespectful, such turds, that the fans know they have to side with Arn Anderson, who may not be a hero, but is a man's man.
Anyway, after your standard Nasty Boys match stretched out to about 20 minutes, Roma hits the swan dive on Knobbs, but then Sags hits Roma, and the Nastys win the belts. Honestly, the Nastys/Missy combination is pretty good and I'm not a big Nasty Boys hater as much as I just think Brian Knobbs is one of the world's biggest lameasses, but when you put those two and Paul Roma in a match for this long, it gets a bit tiresome. Arn's cool though.
Here's some clips of Vader breaking Cactus Jack's face on Saturday Night and then the power bomb on the floor. This feud kicked ass. But then came the insomnia deal. And then they tried to save it with the promo where he walked around in front of Siamese Dream posters.
It seems like Yoshi Kwan should totally suck, but not really. Chris Champion did a pretty good job even with the slanty-eyed makeup, and this match is fine. Jack wins fairly easily, though, because it's just Chris Champion pretending to be Asian. Cactus gets his mystery bag back from Harley Race after the match.
Now we see clips of Rick Rude, with fannypack, forcing himself on Ric Flair's "Flair For the Gold" maid, then getting slapped, then kicking Flair's ass.
NWA World Heavyweight Title Match: Rick Rude vs Ric Flair (c)
Rude has some Fifi tights. He's not fuckin' around tonight. This is serious business and he's going to fuck Ric Flair's woman and take his dignity and shit. This is a really good match, but I have to admit that I've never once in my life, then or now or in between, thought to myself, "You know what match I'd like to see?" Because I don't like babyface Flair that much.
Anyway, this is OK, but the two of them don't have much chemistry and they have some trouble building heat. The first half of the match is too slow for its own good, but you get that with Rick Rude sometimes. The second half of the match is actually pretty good, but still not what it could/should be. Flair gets the figure four but Rude takes some KNUX out his groin and whomps him but good. Rude wins the belt. Whatever.
Harlem Heat, Sid Vicious & Vader vs Dustin Rhodes, Davey Boy Smith, The Shockmaster & Sting
"Kane came out saying, 'nothin' but a thing.' You're not kiddin' it's nothin' but a thing!" says Tony Schiavone. I'm not going to call them Kane and Kole because it's pointless. Ain't no Kane. Ain't no Kole.
Animal is adviser to the babyfaces, and wants Shockmaster to start with Vader, but Dustin Rhodes sneaks in to get some revenge for his injured ribs. Did everyone get their ribs injured on Saturday Night? Dustin puts some hurt on Vader, then his boot is off and he's hittin' him with a boot, which is pretty great, and then Vader flattens him with a clothesline. The opening segment is good, the part where Sting evens it 2-on-2 is good, and the rest of this pretty much sucks until the Shockmaster bearhugs Booker T into submission. Jesus Christ. What a shit War Games. After the match, Sid demands satisfaction and Booker T has a fit about not giving up. "I'ma kill somebody!" Whoa. Ease up.

The Costco in Apex will open March 16, the retail giant has announced.
The members-only big-box store is at the new Nichols Plaza at the corner of U.S. 64 and Laura Duncan Road, across the street from Apex High School and just past the CrossRoads Infiniti South dealership.
Apex Mayor Lance Olive was on the Town Council when Costco was originally approved. He supported it then and said he's still a fan.
"This is the perfect place for Costco," he said. "If you put it farther west, it wouldn't be as accessible to Cary. If you put it in Cary, it wouldn't be as accessible to Apex. But this is right on the border."
Costco lists the Apex store on its website as one of seven that will open this spring.
An ad in the Jan. 31 edition of Southwest Wake News confirms March 16 as the opening date.
The gas station at Costco opened last week. The attached shopping center, Nichols Plaza, will include smaller stores that are expected to open this summer, including Chipotle, McAllister's Deli, Ruckus Pizza and Pasta, Mattress Firm, Great Clips, Harris Nails and T-Mobile.
"We have some deals that we're working on, including another anchor tenant," said Abbitt Goodwin Jr., who is managing the project for South Carolina-based Columbia Development. "But we're not ready to announce anything yet."
Costco job seekers can go to costco.com/jobs or find the Apex listings directly at bit.ly/1nyWGMO. There are three dozen types of jobs, ranging from tire installers to payroll clerks, pharmacy positions, cake decorators and forklift drivers.
The store will accept memberships starting Wednesday, Feb. 3, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., at the store at 1021 Pine Plaza Drive, Apex.
Traffic was a concern to some in town, but Olive said a traffic analysis shows Costco's heaviest traffic wouldn't coincide with rush hours or the start and end of the school day for nearby Apex High School. He said he doesn't anticipate it as a problem.
He also said the company paid to extend Pine Plaza Drive from Lake Pine Drive to Laura Duncan Road, so shoppers coming from Cary won't have to get on U.S. 64 and add to the highway traffic.
The Apex store will be the third in the Triangle. There are also Costco stores in Durham and Raleigh.

Happy Wednesday!
This week has seemed to fly by so far, but I'm sure things will start to slow down again as I try to get through my epic to-do list at work. Or maybe that will just make time go by more quickly? I don't know.
I haven't worked out the last two days for various reasons, so what better reason than Workout Wednesday to get back in the swing of things? I need to get a run in badly, so today I'm sharing the speed workout I'll be doing.
It's easy to think that running is just about that — running for a certain amount of time and distance and that's it. But as simple as it is, there are a lot of different things we can do to help ourselves become better runners. Maybe you just run recreationally, and that's fine, but if you're training for a race or a certain time goal, there are different ways to shake up even your running workouts to help you build strength and speed.
Today I'm doing a speed progression — similar to a structured fartlek ("speed play") workout — on the treadmill, but you can really do this workout anywhere. This workout intersperses speedier intervals with recovery periods, progressively getting faster while each interval gets shorter:
The purpose of this workout is to help build speed and get comfortable going faster for longer periods of time. It is also good for teaching the body to change gears, as you typically are changing speeds throughout a race based on conditions and what's going on around you. I'm not a speedy runner, but I know from past experience that these kinds of workouts really do help shave seconds and minutes off my pace. I've also seen improvements in my endurance, something I'm definitely going to need over 13.1 miles in Chicago on Sept. 24.
Another advantage to speed workouts? Switching things up! It can be easy to get bored slogging through your miles at one pace, but constantly changing speeds gives you something else to think about and look forward to.
The first time I did this workout, I was not in running shape, so my warm-up and cooldown were shorter at 0.5 mile and my intervals never got faster than a 9:05 pace. Now in the thick of training, I'm hoping to improve on both my speed and the distance I cover over the course of the workout.
Do you have a good workout scheduled for today?
What's your favorite speed workout?
Training for anything fun? I'd love to hear about it!

Training to Proficiency…
Instrument Proficiency Checks, or IPCs, are a great way to get your instrument currency up to date. Whether you have been flying regularly or not at all, we can help you regain proficiency in your aircraft.
IPC Guidelines
The requirements for an instrument proficiency check can be found in the Instrument Rating Practical Test Standards (PTS). Although the PTS establishes the minimum standards for training, the FAA also issues guidelines for flight instructors that conduct instrument proficiency checks. Those guidelines recommend at least 90 minutes of ground time and 2 hours of flight time in order to establish a solid evaluation of the pilot's instrument flying knowledge and skills.
Our Instrument Proficiency Checks
At HPA, we believe your IPC should challenge you and help take your instrument flying skills to the next level. We use an organized syllabus for all IPCs because we know that your time is valuable. Our goal is not just to test you, but also to enhance your understanding of the IFR environment.
Many pilots get their Instrument Rating and then forget most of what they learned because they don't use it often enough. Our IPCs will give you the instrument refresher you have been looking for.
For a proficient instrument pilot, we typically plan on a 4 hour session to complete the ground and flight training for the IPC. If it has been a while since you have flown in the IFR environment, we can schedule a few sessions to help you brush up on your IFR skills prior to the official IPC. Either way, we will help you increase your confidence, refine your skills, and improve your understanding of IFR flying.

1. Supply-side climate policy: Setting the stage
Will the ugly duckling become a beautiful swan or a dead duck? The political and economic case for a global moratorium on building new coal mines
A world that is tackling climate change requires fewer coal mines, not more. Yet since world leaders first agreed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions at the 1992 Rio Earth Summit, global coal production has risen by 70%. Despite promises made at the Paris Climate Change Conference, new coal mines are still being built. A global moratorium on building new coal mines, as called for by Kiribati, would seem to be an essential first step towards reducing emissions, but such calls are far from uncontroversial. Despite the relative political and policy success of global moratoria in other fields (nuclear non-proliferation, chlorofluorocarbons, whaling), economists and environmentalists have strongly favoured "market- based solutions" and demand-side strategies and seem ambivalent – sometimes hostile – to the role of moratoria. This paper outlines the benefits of a global moratorium on building new coal mines, including: 1) simplicity when compared with the global accounting and enforcement issues associated with international carbon pricing; 2) political benefits which flow from separating the economic interests of the owners of existing mines from those of the owners of new mines; 3) diplomatic benefits, as only a small number of countries are still planning to build new coal mines; 4) distributional benefits, which flow from delivering benefits to existing coal mine workers and owners while imposing costs on workers/owners in unbuilt mines; and 5) foreign policy benefits which flow from forcing the small number of countries seeking to build new mines to demand the right to do so, thus reducing their ability to undermine the climate negotiations. The paper ends by discussing the limitations of a potential moratorium on new coal mines. Drawing on the example of tobacco control example, it explores opportunities for a moratorium to augment rather than replace other policy instruments.
The case for coal supply-side policy: A coal tax
Frank Jotzo, Philipp Richter and Roman Mendelevitch
The shift away from coal is at the heart of the global low-carbon transition. Can governments of coal-producing countries help facilitate this transition to the advantage of their economies? This paper analyses the case for a tax on coal, including on coal exports. The argument is that coal-producing and -exporting countries can capture economic rents inherent in carbon constraints by taxing coal. Empirical analysis suggests that a broad coalition of large coal-exporting countries is needed for a coal export tax to materially affect global coal prices. Coal tax revenue can be used to help with the economic transition away from coal – for example, through public investment in infrastructure, research and education. Against this stand the interests of private owners of coal resources. Whether coal-exporting countries can be better off as a result of taxing coal will depend on who owns the rents from coal production and how the tax revenue is used.
Whose carbon is 'burnable'? Equity considerations in the allocation of a 'right to extract'
The prospect of supply-side constraints immediately raises equity questions: Who gets to extract their fossil resources, and who does not? Whose carbon is "burnable" and whose is not? We explore here possible bases for distributing a "right to exploit". Various options have been raised. One possibility is a purely market-based distribution based solely on efficiency: the most cost-effective resources are identified by competitive markets. Another is to rely on an equity framework based on equity principles. Another may be a strict compliance regime based on political considerations (an example of which might be Eckersley's "Coal Non-Proliferation Treaty"). Related considerations arise with respect to the institutional arrangements: a market in tradeable "extraction permits", with a mechanism for international transfers? Might fossil fuel cartels, which currently appear to be groping for an exit strategy, play a role in developing and self-imposing restrictions? This paper explores the above questions and indicates some possible ways forward.
Unburnable carbon and biodiversity: A global fund for keeping fossil fuels in the ground in biodiversity hotspots of developing countries
María Rosa Murmis and Carlos Larrea
According to scientific evidence, about two-thirds of proven fossil fuel reserves must remain in the ground to stay within the limit of a 2°C mean global temperature increase and avoid catastrophic consequences of climate change. This has led to initiatives to "keep the oil in the ground" and divestment campaigns. It has also led researchers and policy-makers to consider supply-side climate policies addressing the production of fossil fuels, rather than focusing only on the demand side. Yet theory so far has not determined how to decide which reserves must be kept unburned and which can be extracted. This article proposes that supply-side climate policy must address the socio-environmental value of the areas lying on top of reserves in the critical decision to determine which reserves must be kept in the ground. We show that there is ample evidence of areas of exceptional conservation value worldwide lying on top of fossil fuel resources. Thus, we propose the creation of a global fund to keep fossil fuels reserves in the ground in areas of exceptional biodiversity in developing countries, capitalizing on the experience of the Yasuní-ITT Initiative. The fund is to finance projects to keep fossil fuels in the ground in developing countries, with fossil fuel reserves in environmentally and culturally sensitive areas, and to make the transition to a low-emissions, sustainable economy. Leakage and valuation options are addressed. Economic rents generated by the reduction of production under supply side policy could be captured to finance the fund. Establishing the fund through a global governance institution such as the UN, and in the context of the Paris Agreement, would increase its robustness. Download full paper PDF »
A question of balance: The world trading system and fossil fuels
World trade in fossil fuels nears 3 trillion USD a year, with oil remaining the No. 1 traded commodity in volume and value terms. Meanwhile, world trade in renewable-energy equipment is growing fast, but still lags far behind fossil fuels (about 400–500 billion USD a year. This presentation highlights several double standards that policy-makers (and the broader public) apply to the two sectors, and which generally favour fossil fuels. First, import tariffs on fossil fuels are often zero or very low, while tariffs on renewables are very high in several emerging economies (e.g. India). Second, local-content requirements imposed on renewable energy technologies have been under increasing scrutiny and often challenged under existing trade rules, while local-content provisions on drilling equipment for fossil fuels remain unchallenged. Third, subsidies benefitting renewables are being challenged and scaled back in many countries, while fossil fuel subsidies persist despite international commitments and increasing scrutiny. What these comparisons suggest is that the game is rigged from the start – and these double standards not only hinder the diffusion of clean technologies, but are also economically inefficient. A first practical step in solving this problem is for policymakers to guarantee a level playing field in the global competition between fossil fuels and cleaner alternatives.

LOS ANGELES -- A jury ordered the city of Los Angeles yesterday to pay Rodney King $3.8 million in damages in compensation for his beating by police officers in 1991.
In the next phase of Mr. King's civil suit, to begin immediately, the jury will hear additional testimony to determine whether any of 14 current and former police officers who were at the scene are liable for punitive damages in addition to yesterday's award.
The award yesterday -- $3,816,535.45 -- was more than double the $1.25 million the city had offered to pay Mr. King before the trial when it accepted liability for the beating. But it was far less than the $9.5 million Mr. King had sought.

Our I&D Councils support our drive to be the employer of choice in our industry by attracting and retaining talented individuals from a wide range of backgrounds and perspectives.
We promote fair talent practices that are free from bias, help associates learn about the benefits of I&D and develop diverse future leaders through our BRGs. BRGs are voluntary, associate-led affinity groups that aim to foster Inclusion and develop future leaders in support of our business goals. We currently have Women's, LGBTQ, and Working Parents BRG chapters.
More broadly, we focus on equality and women's advancement in the workplace through our commitment to the UN's Women's Empowerment Principles and our support for initiatives such as the United Nations' HeForShe initiative and Human Rights Campaign.
More than 1,200 leaders have completed our "Confronting Unconscious Bias" training, introduced in 2016 to help senior leaders identify and address deeply ingrained biases in their decision-making and interactions with others. Our program was recognized in 2017 by HR.com as a finalist in the Best Use of Classroom Training category. All new and recently promoted leaders are required to take the course.
Building on this success, we have expanded PVH University's Inclusion and Diversity- related content to include two new courses. The first is on the topic of microinequities and the second is focused on generational differences.
Our PVH Chairman & CEO, Emanuel Chirico, and Steve Shiffman, CEO of our Calvin Klein business, have signed the UN's Women's Empowerment Principles, in support of our focus on gender equality and empowering women in the workplace.
Our Women's Leadership Council launched new learning experiences and opportunities for associates and presented proposals to our CEO on broader and more inclusive parental leave benefits and flexible working arrangements in the U.S.
Our associates formed an LBGTQ Business Resource Group, following the involvement of over 150 associates in New York's 2016 Pride March and Hong Kong's Pink Dot event. PVH committed to be a platinum sponsor of the 2017 New York Pride March, with over 800 supporters and guests signing up to participate.

People were going wild wondering if a fairy has appeared..
She still looks like a fairy, I have to agree
(Han Seungyeon)
Seriously I never thought she was that pretty, but looking at this gif I finally realized how pretty she is
When she appeared on Knowing Bros, she had her famous "Cheese kimbap" scene
She's literally born with natural aegyo
The "eye gaze Sana" was also no joke
Her eye gaze on this gif is legendary
Her smiling gif seriously burst the hearts of both men and women
Looking at this again, she looks so bright and innocent when she smiledㅜ.ㅜ
You have to acknowledge her in hanboks.
After Lee Youngae, she's the one who suits it the best, she looks so classic and elegant
+Ending legends+
This girl's face is always a legend, this gif is the real stuff
I can't get enough of thisㅜ
(Jung Chaeyeon)
Her ending on Produce was seriously the BIGGEST.SHOCK
(Son Naeun)
Because clothes fit her so femininely, as soon as this picture got released, people went wild over that knit
Even looking at it now, I still think that this is her life picture
How can she look so sexy in a hanbok?
Even the wind is helping her visualsㄷㄷ

Positively Good Productions
"Making a Positively Good difference"
Priorities determine how we use our time
and what we choose to put in first place.
A priority is a thing that is regarded
as more important than another.
Priority means superiority in rank,
position, or privilege.
Whatever has first place in our life
will drive our decisions and shape our future.
The average person wastes between fifteen
and forty hours a week watching worldly...
enticing programs that are blatantly
and subliminally polluting
minds and the spirit...
and leading unsuspecting individuals astray.
Many individuals spend far too much time
listening to trash radio or
reading newspapers and magazines
that are in no way... edifying.
These toxic programming devices
are competing for first place in their lives.
Sadly, some have succeeded
in taking first place in their lives.
God's commandments, desires, and love,
should be the center of what we are… and desire to be.
All other entities find their position as a result.
Seeking God and God's Kingdom first means...
God has precedence in our lives... no matter what.
To seek God and God's Kingdom first means
to desire more and more of God,
and realizing it is God alone
who can fill the vacuum in our lives.
To seek God means to value God so much...
that we purposefully seek to know God,
draw closer to God,
walk with God, and keep God first in all of our affairs.
To seek God first is to fix and focus our mind's attention
on God's direction, wisdom, and perspective.
desiring an intimate personal relationship with God,
or seeking to develop an intimate relationship with God.
To seek God and God's Kingdom first means
not to seek after things,
but to have a hungering desire
to bring our hearts into subjection
to the Will of God
and live according to God's design.
When we pursue God first...
the thought of pleasing God becomes very important to us.
God becomes the center of what we are and desire to be.
The life that pleases God bears wonderful fruit.
The more we seek God, learn about God,
understand about God, appreciate about God,
and walk in God's way and will...
the richer and fuller our relationship with God becomes.
to seek God first...
is a wise and righteous thing to do.
When we consciously fix our focus on God ...
we become sensitive to God's still small voice
and can be obedient to the changes
He wants to make in us.
When our focus is solidly fixed on God...
we will not get caught up or overwhelmed by
the circumstances surrounding us.
When we are intently focused on God...
we will not spend our time worrying
about worldly concerns;
instead, our greatest priority and focal point
will be on seeking God's Kingdom,
His Commandments,
His Desires, and His righteousness.
When we are focused on the One who has control
over everything,
even in the midst of storms and disappointments,
we will have greater balance,
direction, kindness, gentleness, faithfulness, patience,
goodness, love, joy, self-control, and inner peace.
Our lives will change tremendously
when we truly put God first
and set our mind's attention
and our heart's affection on God and God alone.
Until we discover the joy of God and God alone,
we will never be satisfied or fulfilled in life.
The Word of God tells us that it is imperative
that we put our priorities in the proper order,
and then prudently cultivate
each one with diligence and conviction.
According to Scripture...
the Kingdom of God is of much greater value...
than all the world's treasures, and those who have it...
are the wealthiest people on earth!
The Bible repeatedly calls us to seek God . . .
and seek God's presence continually.
"The Kingdom of God"
was the primary subject of Jesus'
Sermon on the Mount.
In Jesus' Sermon on the Mount,
Jesus taught some of the most profound principles
of living.
One of these was:
But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness,
and all these things shall be added to you.
Matthew 6:33
In essence, Jesus was cautioning us
not to worry about these human concerns
and to instead place our greatest priority on
seeking God's Kingdom.
One of the biggest obstacles to seeking God is pride.
Therefore, humility is essential to seeking God.
The more we humbly and diligently seek God
with all our heart and with all our soul...
the more our desires become God's desires.
Therefore, humility is essential to seeking God.
The more we humbly and diligently seek God
with all our heart and with all our soul...
the more our desires become God's desires.
God desires to be first in our lives.
As God is exalted to the right place in our lives,
a thousand problems are solved all at once.
A.W. Tozer
God wants us to let Him be God in our lives!
When we seek God first in our daily pursuits,
He promises to add unto us those things
which we were pursuing
(as long as they are in His Will).
God desires that we would seek Him first above all else.
God's desire is that we worship God and God alone.
God does not want us to place anything before Him.
Jesus taught that our focus should be
away from this world,
its status, and its lying allurements...
and placed upon the things of God's kingdom.
When our hearts are aligned with the heart of God,
and our souls sincerely desire to please God,
we will desire to spend time with God
and walk in His Will.
When our hearts are aligned with the heart of God...
we will want to listen to God
and follow through with obedient behavior.
My eyes are ever on the Lord,
for only He will release my feet from the snare.
Psalm 25:15
Once we understand the Spiritual dangers we face,
on a daily basis,
we will focus more on God and seek God's way,
will, and God's perfect timing.
Our time on earth, if the truth be told, is incredibly brief.
Every day our first priority should be...
to seek God and God's kingdom
with the greatest earnestness and concern.
In seeking the Kingdom of God first...
we are doing and concerning ourselves more
with Spiritual and eternal things...
as opposed to worldly things... which, in the end,
will fade away.
We believe in order for us to find life
and real personal freedom for ourselves...
we must, intentionally, make God our first priority.
Now is the time to be wise.
It is imperative that we establish godly priorities
and make choices in light of those priorities.
We know that when our godly priorities
are in the right order...
all other entities find their proper place as a result.
Seeking God is an ongoing process.
As we seek God's direction for our lives...
we can have the certainty necessary
to keep, in perspective,
the wonder-working power of Almighty God
over our lives.
May we keep God first in all we do in life.
God must come first.

All too often, we're reluctant to dive in, clinging to the cozy, time-proven raft of our current routine…even if said raft is springing leaks, and starting to sink. Under such…

May 3, 2016
It's hard to say how many people globally do not believe in any sort of deity, but the recent Pew numbers on China claiming over 60% of its population to be atheists seems like substantial support toward more 'non-believers' than believers. Also, the lack of practicing devout subjects in this country alone is staggering. When I took my Life in the UK test a few years ago, Brits who actually go to church each week was at an alarmingly low 17%, and at the same time, the BBC reported that atheism or UK citizens who declared themselves 'of no religion' was teetering at a high of over 14 million, a number that had more than doubled in the previous ten years.
I do not begrudge any religion or religious person. I am a huge fan of the Dali Lama ( = no choice, born into the role). And yet I can't say I understand it, because I just don't understand faith. But some of the people I love and respect the most are seriously devout. More than anything, I love to question them and also, to argue and debate. It's the stuff of life that is engaging, exploratory and educational.
However, I've noted a few disturbing episodes of discrimination against my child lately ('Mini Me' is currently self-proclaimed). Both occurred at what is meant to be a non-denom school. Firstly, in a recent classroom lesson, the teacher asked the kids to raise hands if they were Muslim, Catholic, Jewish, etc. When two of the kids didn't raise hands (one being my daughter), the teacher inquired and they reported they were atheists. My daughter said her teacher looked at her strangely, and then looked 'disappointed'. For my 6 year old to clock disappointment means the teacher didn't do much to veil it.
The second instance was during the recent Passover where they served only matzo sandwiches to ALL of the children during the week. When I inquired as to why there was no choice, the reply from the school was it was easier to accommodate the children observing Passover. Fine, but please provide an alternative. Do not literally shove an organised religion's practices down my kid's throat. It's a violation of her civil rights, and probably against several Department for Education codes. But I said nothing. It was one of those "choose your battles" moments and this one seemed, well, unwinnable. God (!) forbid I even go anywhere near it (we have enough problems fitting in being half-American).
Minor as it might seem, the point is a larger one: there was no choice. I don't want my daughter practicing your traditions – however harmless they may be, unless she chooses to. We are trying to start our own traditions as atheists, whatever that even really means, which is admittedly hard considering I was reared Catholic and my whole family celebrates Easter, Christmas, First Communions, etc. And yes, I want her to be open to new things and explore different foods, cultures, and theories, but…give her the choice however small it may seem.
There are many parts of organized religion I admire. I respect the intent of good deeds and good will, and I admire the structure it can provide to children, families and communities, especially in times of crisis and even more so in the digital age with the intense loneliness it is creating. But there's also a lot of hypocrisy around religion and the current problem with people actually confusing the second largest religion in the world for something broken (by Western believers?) and sinister. Also, religious holidays seem to cause people more stress than happiness with all the relatives, food and money wasted on things nobody really seems to need (can you imagine how quickly we could end global poverty if we all diverted our Christmas/Hanukkah/Diwali budgets to end hunger?).
These are some of the reasons why starting our own traditions has been difficult. What does Christmas mean if you don't believe in Christ, is it hypocritical to celebrate it? Easter just becomes a completely pagan, chocolate guzzling holiday. I'm not one of those atheists who does not support religion, even after 12 years of Catholic school. My Dad self-baptized my daughter when she was born and I have no problem with that if it makes him happy. So with our child, my husband (agnostic) and I decided we would take her to church when she was around 2 years old. She loved it, but mostly we think it was for the biscuits at the end. We had a really good pastor at our local C of E and he did a special family mass that was truly inspirational. But then he left and we lost interest. I've also made my step-kids go to this same mass because I think teenagers these days need good lessons in managing boredom, and mass is very boring for a teenager. But it also provides a great opportunity to unplug and organise one's thoughts as well as meet people from the community (not easy to do in London). And in most cases, it also provides the chance to embrace positivity, of which I am a true believer. The power of positive thinking and the whole #PMA movement are right up my alley.
Whilst I do want my daughter to embrace all religions, I want whatever route she chooses to be her choice, not mine, nor anyone else's and certainly not her school's.
May the peace be with you.

I would like to bring to your attention an ongoing issue that I would like your help to publicise as it effects the majority of leasehold residents who lives in the UK. I believe this is an important article of which needs the attention of the community.
So we all know about the horrors of the Grenfell fire. My grandad (who is 95) lives in a building with the same cladding in Croydon (Drummond Road). The Managing Agents FirstPort have now told residents they have to pay between £5,000-£6,000 within the next 6 months to pay for the replacement and get this - a Fire Marshal has been put in place costing £20,000 per week and has already amounted to £56,000! Why should the residents pay for what should never have been used in the first place?? I'm sure there are many leaseholders in the same predicament. The question here is simple: Who's responsible? Certainly not the Residents!N

Why choose Virgin TV?
Virgin Media has made huge strides over the last few years to improve its TV subscription packages. Whether as a standalone TV-only package or as part of a TV bundle deal, it is now seen as the main contender to Sky's crown as the premier TV subscription provider. Let's take a closer look at some of the unique features that set Virgin's TV offering apart from its competitors.
- Choice of two distinct TV packages
- Access to the fastest broadband with four bundle options
- 12-month discount on all TV and broadband bundles
- Virgin V6 box is the best in the business
- Watch 4K content on V6 via the Netflix and YouTube apps
- TV-only packages available
- You can add Sky Sports, BT Sport and Sky Cinema
Choice of two distinct TV packages
There are only two TV packages, which keeps things simple, right? Not exactly. In fact, for such a tiny number of possible options, Virgin Media seems intent on making things as confusing as possible.
The two 'levels' of TV are called 'Mix' and 'Full House'. As the names suggest, Mix is a blend of Freeview essentials with a few premium bits and bobs thrown in, which Full House offers you practically everything bar premium add-ons such as Sky Sports, Sky Cinema and BT Sport.
Where this becomes confusing is how this is then applied to bundles (broadband, TV, phone), which we'll talk about in just a moment. Suffice to say for now, either Mix or Full House TV become the TV component of each of the three broadband, TV and phone bundles.
Access to the fastest broadband with three bundle options
You really would have to be a bit of a wally not to sign up to Virgin Media broadband if you're getting its TV service. Virgin Media offers by far the fastest, most reliable broadband in the UK with top speeds more than four times quicker than its closest rival. In fact, it's so good we wrote an entire guide about why it's the best there is.
Now remember, there are two TV packages, and three bundles. The Player Bundle is the one incorporating Mix TV, which both the Full House and VIP bundles incorporate Full House TV, with the VIP bundle adding Sky Sports, Sky Cinema, BT Sport and an extra V6 set-top box so you can watch in more than one room. It's pricey, but boy that's a lot of telly!
The combinations don't end there, of course. You can pretty much add or subtract anything you like with your bundle. You could have Virgin's slowest broadband with its most inclusive TV, for example. It's just that the pre-defined bundles tend to offer better value and often come with introductory discounts, gifts or cashback.
12-month discount on all TV and broadband bundles
Virgin Media tends to favour a first-year discount period over outright gifts for new customers, though when it does partake of the latter it will often layer it on top of the first-year discount, not instead of it. The discount amount varies by package and bundle, so if you want to know exactly how much less you're going to be paying for those first twelve months you'll need to find out for yourself.
Virgin V6 Box is the best in the business
Virgin's V6 TV box is unrivalled within the industry and, justifiably, has received rave reviews since it was launched in December 2016. So, what's so special about it? Well, it's free for a start for all Virgin Media TV bundle customers. It's far better than the free version of the Sky Q box and just about on a par with the Sky Q 2TB, which Sky will charge you £200 for. It has a huge 1TB of storage capacity, which caters for up to 500 hours of recordings for SD programmes and 100 hours for HD.
You can record up to six programmes at once and the V6 box still gives you room to watch a seventh you recorded earlier. Whilst it's unclear exactly which households would actually ever need to do that, it's great to know you can. The V6 comes with all Virgin TV packages and broadband, TV and phone bundles.
Watch 4K content on V6 via the Netflix and YouTube apps
Unlike the free version of the Sky Q box, Virgin's V6 set-top box is 4K-ready. You can watch 4K content on it right from the get-go provided you have one of those fancy new 4K TVs. However, at this point don't expect any channels in 4K because there aren't any right now. BT Sport has one in the form of BT Sport Ultra HD, but you can't watch that on the V6 even if you add on BT Sport.
What you can do is watch 4K content via the Netflix and Youtube apps which you can install on the V6. Although the hardware is capable the software (firmware) on the V6 doesn't currently support high dynamic range (HDR) content. If you don't know what HDR is there's honesty no reason you should care. People who are seriously into the audiovisual technology race might, though. At the very least, the V6 is future-proof in a way Sky Q isn't.
Watch on mobile and tablet with Virgin TV Go App
Well isn't this just great? The Virgin TV Go app comes with every TV package or broadband, TV and phone bundle. You can use it on iOS or Android phones and tablets as well as on any laptop or computer. It offers complete access to all of your TV channels both live or on catch-up and even allows you to download programmes to your device while you're at home or on wi-fi so you can watch them when out and about.
TV-only packages available
Whereas Sky only offers Sky Entertainment as a standalone TV deal, Virgin offers two. So, if you're happy with your broadband and landline provider but want to change your TV package, Virgin offers you the flexibility to do so.
The basic Mix TV deal offers all the Freeview channels plus a selection of premium channels including Sky One, Sky Living and Sky Sports News. The Full House TV deal offers lots more channels, in addition to those available on the Mix TV deal, including all the Disney channels and all the BT Sports channels in HD plus Nat Geo Wild HD. No phone line is required for either deal and both come with a 500GB TiVo box, not the V6 box, which should still be plenty storage for any programme recording you wish to make.
You can add Sky Sports, BT Sport and Sky Cinema
UK competition laws mean that if Sky and BT are going to exclusive get all the premium sport they have to make it available to competitors. That means you can add on both Sky Sports and BT Sport to your Virgin TV package or bundle with enormous ease.
The option to also add on Sky Cinema seems to us like one of those 'in for a penny, in for a pound' decisions. Sky must offer Sky Sports to Virgin Media customers so why not offer it's premium movie channels too?
Virgin Movies on demand
Virgin TV doesn't have its own dedicated premium movie channels. It does have Film 4 and TCM and that one that shows made-for-TV melodramas all day, but if you want full-time movie channels showing newer films you'll need to subscribe to add Sky Cinema to your package.
If, on the other hand, you just want to watch the odd thing here and there, Virgin Movies on demand allows you to rent new releases for 48 hours for similar money to what you'd pay on Amazon Prime, or used to pay at Blockbuster.
3D content on demand
Who cares about 3D anymore? Some do, actually. Unbeknownst to most there can be huge differences in the quality of 3D between one TV and another. The upshot is that those who experienced 'bad 3D' generally lost interest, while those who saw 'good 3D' formed a following.
Anyhow, those that enjoy 3D will be extremely pleased to hear that Virgin Media still offers 3D movies on demand, unlike literally anyone else.
Range of international channel collections

Another positive effect of deca-durabolin was reported by many bodybuilders who prior using this drug experienced pains in joints but once using it they started to enjoy training with no pain and that is attributed to deca's ability to store more water in connective tissues.
However there are some moments which must be known by you before you start using nandrolone decanoate , it has a very strong effect on decreasing your sexual drive and it can cause gyno in some individuals. So have Nolvadex (tamoxifen citrate) on hand in case you feel gyno symptoms.
Injectable steroids are injected into muscle tissue, not into the veins. They are slowly released from the muscles into the rest of the body, and may be detectable for months after last use. Injectable steroids can be oil-based or water-based. Injectable anabolic steroids which are oil-based have longer half-life than water-based steroids. Both steroid types have much longer half-lives than oral anabolic steroids. And this is proving to be a drawback for injectables as they have high probability of being detected in drug screening since their clearance times tend to be longer than orals. Athletes resolve this problem by using injectable testosterone early in the cycle then switch to orals when approaching the end of the cycle and drug testing is imminent.

Dame Marco Benevento
In the You had to see this coming category, Marco Benevento has finally realized his dream of receiving British Peerage. Ticked off by fans constantly referring to his Benevento-Russo bandmate as Sir Joe Russo, the keyboard player spent last month in England, intending to rescue and return the lost pets of royalty hoping to be rewarded with his own honorary title. Failing that, fifteen eBay auctions later, Jambands.com is proud to introduce Dame Marco Benevento. When confronted with the information that Dame is actually the proper title for a woman, Benevento responded with a huff, Well, the Order of Knighthood is traditionally given to a man and that didnt stop them from awarding it to Joe. Meow!

Burns and scalds can sometimes lead to further problems, including shock, heat exhaustion, infection and scarring.
After a serious injury, it's possible to go into shock. Shock is a life-threatening condition that occurs when there's an insufficient supply of oxygen to the body. It's possible to go into shock after a serious burn.
Signs and symptoms of shock include:
- a pale face
- cold or clammy skin
- a rapid pulse
- fast, shallow breathing
- yawning
- unconsciousness
Dial 999 and ask for an ambulance if you think that someone who has been seriously injured is going into shock.
While you wait for the ambulance:
- lay the person down (if their injuries allow it) and raise and support their legs
- use a coat or blanket to keep them warm, but don't cover their face or the burnt area
- don't give them anything to eat or drink
Heat exhaustion and heatstroke
Heat exhaustion and heatstroke are two heat-related health conditions that happen when the temperature inside your body rises to 37-40C (98.6-104F) or above.
Both heat exhaustion and heatstroke can be very serious. They're often caused by being exposed to too much sunlight or heat.
Symptoms of heat exhaustion and heatstroke include:
- extreme tiredness and lack of energy
- dizziness or fainting
- feeling sick or vomiting
- rapid pulse
- headache
- muscle pain
- irritability
- confusion
If a person with heat exhaustion is taken quickly to a cool place, given water to drink and has their clothing loosened, they should start to feel better within half an hour. If they don't, they could develop heatstroke. This is a medical emergency and you'll need to call 999 for an ambulance.
Read more about what to do if someone has heat exhaustion or heatstroke.
Wounds can become infected if bacteria get into them. If your burn or scald has a blister that has burst, it may become infected if it's not kept clean. Seek medical attention for any burn that causes a blister.
Your wound may be infected if:
- it's uncomfortable, painful or smelly
- you have a high temperature of 38C (100.4F) or higher
- you have signs of cellulitis, a bacterial infection that causes redness and swelling of the skin
Seek immediate medical attention if you think your burn has become infected. An infection can usually be treated with antibiotics and painkilling medication, if necessary.
In rare cases, an infected burn can cause blood poisoning (sepsis) or toxic shock syndrome. These serious conditions can be fatal if not treated.
Signs of sepsis and toxic shock syndrome include:
- a high temperature
- dizziness
- vomiting
A scar is a patch or line of tissue that remains after a wound has healed. Most minor burns only leave minimal scarring. You can try to reduce the risk of scarring after the wound has healed by:
- applying an emollient, such as aqueous cream or emulsifying ointment, two or three times a day
- using sunscreen with a high sun protection factor (SPF) to protect the healing area from the sun when you are outside

Commercial air conditioning units have been working at capacity to keep apartment complexes, warehouses, movie theaters and more icy cold during these blistering Texas summer months. Some commercial air conditioning units may have been pushed too hard and have begun to show typical signs of wear and tear… or outright mechanical failure.
Commercial Air Conditioning Units – Know When to Replace
Knowing when it's time to repair and when it's time to replace your A/C unit is an important skill to have. The average air conditioning unit operating in the United States of America can last between 15 and 20 years without requiring complete replacement. While that's a comforting thought, owners must carefully weigh out the cost of repairs a faulty unit has accumulated against the purchase price of a new unit after all possible rebates and discounts.
On average, commercial locations can wind up spending several thousands of dollars MORE to repair an outdated unit when compared to purchasing a more modern, efficient model. A newer unit may require less electricity, which in turn reduces your monthly bills. Combine that with the security of having a brand new manufacturer's warranty should any problems arise, and the pure savings potential accelerates past the cost of replacing an old trouble unit.
This is also assuming that replacement components for a 20-year-old air conditioning unit can be located at all. If the aging model is too obscure or parts are too exotic to locate, owners may be forced to replace their broken commercial air conditioning units out of necessity.
Commercial Air Conditioning Units – Service
Getting service for your Commercial Air Conditioning Units is as easy as picking up the phone and calling Arctic Air Conditioning of Fort Worth, TX! As a company, we are a licensed Carrier dealer. We believe that Carrier has the best services and equipment available, and so as a company, we have dedicated ourselves to selling people great Carrier equipment.
Don't own a Carrier AC Unit? Our trained service personnel is equipped to take on any make or model air conditioning unit. If the air conditioner in your home or place of business is not doing the job it needs to do, we have what it takes to whip it back into working order in next to no time.

They were the self-billed 'world's most dangerous group' back in the late 1980s-early 1990s. NWA took the hip-hop scene by storm and sold millions of records around the world. The group was the launch pad for future music legends like Dr. Dre (who went on to co-create his 'Beats' empire, and make himself a couple of billionaire in the process), and Ice Cube, who went on to star in films like RIDE ALONG.
STRAIGHT OUTTA COMPTON is the film about the rise of this pioneering rap group, and stars O'Shea Jackson as Cube, Corey Hawkins as Dr. Dre, Jason Mitchell as Eazy-E, Aldis Hodge as MC Ren, Neil Brown, Jr. as DJ Yella and one Paul Giamatti as Jerry Heller, their manager. F. Gary Gray directs.
"In the mid-1980s, the streets of Compton, California, were some of the most dangerous in the country. When five young men translated their experiences growing up into brutally honest music that rebelled against abusive authority, they gave an explosive voice to a silenced generation. Following the meteoric rise and fall of N.W.A, Straight Outta Compton tells the astonishing story of how these youngsters revolutionized music and pop culture forever the moment they told the world the truth about life in the hood and ignited a cultural war."
The first trailer debuted during last night Grammy Awards Stateside, which you can see below (along with the poster). STRAIGHT OUTTA COMPTON hits on the 14th August, 2015 in the UK.

I was hesitant at first of buying a samsung phone, but by far this phone does not compare to any other samsung phone. THe mp3 and video player is awesome and the speakers are cool too. SCreen resolution is top quality, my only qualm is that i wish i got the 600E with EDGE.
Was in doubt btw this d600 or SEk750 (there's no nokia at the same level), went for the first and am very satisfied. Great phone with minor flaws... who cares about 3G... I had a 3G Motorola e1000, had to charge the f****** battery every single night and by the way I hadnt used the 3G features cause I didnt want to pay to watch TV... I can watch TV at home without paying anything... And radio...? There's a huge memory and an INCREDIBLE sound system to play my best mp3s... I used to avoid korean made technology/automotive products but changed my mind after this one. cheers
To get it connected to PC install the software AND go through Windows Installation Wizard! F****** Windows!
TNT: i think it is a charger problem. my mum has a samsung phone, that shes had for about 3 years. i used her charger 2 days ago and I still have full battery! and i text and take photos loads during the day! i will post again in a few days to let you know how the battery is holding up using this charger.
how do i put music on my phone from my computer. My computer keeps saying there has been no device found
just tried to install samsung pc studio 3.0 disc onto windows xp, but half way through install computer says disc does not comply with windows xp logo. what does this mean?
i got the d600 yesterday and it is awsum the camera is amazing and the menu cool one prob is that when you plug it into the tele the picture quality isnt very good but on the hole this is the best phone out right now.
can someone tell me if I can set an MP3 for message alert tones??
thanx much
via bluetooth or the usbcable, you have to install software before it will work.
how do you get music from the computer onto the fone and how do you get it to conect ???
What does the "Reply Path" feature do in Message | Settings | Text message | Send Settings?
I know that "Reply Path lets the recipient of your message to send you a reply message through your message center if provided by your network."
What does this mean? Is it something just on Samsung mobiles?
to !lilquestion?
they have left some usefull features out of the phone, like infrared, radio, voice dial, and some more. and that's kinda sucky, but yes it's your flavour which phone you want ''one with more features or one with design'' i like them both, but hard to find. before you buy a new phone, first look which one can be yours. that's why most people buy a phone and in time they will sell it.
hello, anyone with cingular here? please send me the email setting if you know what they are. i am unable to send email via my phone.
~ Vikki
nice phone, however a bit thicker than the previous model and also camera is in an awkward position easily getting fingers in way quite often. Also mp4 video is quite good quality however only 320 or so lines ( vhs quality ) compared to the higher video mode 640X480 offered by some digital cameras.
D600 is $250 with contract in U.S. right now.
You can buy it in Seattle.
Contract both for T-mobile and Cingular available.
is the phone huge? i kinda saw it at the mall that day. is it thick? i'm wondering why isnt D600 a 3G fon. if it is! i'm telling you it's gona be the best fon ever. by the way. nokia 6280 is great!
If this phone is supposed to do everything then why doesn't it have voice dialling?
does anyone know any site where theres loads of stuff for samsung D600? email me bk or ryt back here plz! tnx!
i'm gettin this phone for christmas i think... and i found 2 sites that had the cheapest prices
have you guys ordered from anyone of these sites before???
I want to know if it is safe

Thursday Night Choose-Your-Own
|League Info
|Member Info
Choose-your-own or more fondly called CYO is a competitive evening league for members of any age, gender and skill level.
There is two draws on Thursdays which take place at 6:50 and 9pm. The real difference with this league is that teams are not made by me, but rather created by the members hence the name choose your own. CYO is split into 2 divisions (A and B), the top 2 teams at the end of each draw in the B division are promoted to A while the bottom 2 teams in A division are relegated to B division. Since there is divisions, any skill level is welcome to submit a team to join the league. We are still looking for one more team to fill the league out to 16 teams.At the end of the season, the league is broken into 4 divisions for playoffs and the champion from each division plays an elusive crossover match with the Tuesday CYO.
Please contact Madison at firstname.lastname@example.com if you have any questions or are interested in registering a team.

Critic Reviews for Submergence
All Critics (44) | Top Critics (9) | Fresh (9) | Rotten (35)
The audience is left, then, submerged in two very different movies where the protagonists are going to sink or swim - but unsatisfyingly - not together.
The actors and the filmmaking are seductive enough that Submergence isn't a chore to sit through, but it's not engrossing, either.
Despite the potent raw material at his disposal, Wenders listlessly flips back and forth between the two backdrops, allowing any remaining element of dramatic tension to slowly seep out along the way.
Ms. Dignam's script distills the novel into middlebrow Hollywood treacle.
An objectively bad movie, paradoxically ponderous and pointless.
You'll have nobody to blame but yourself - or the filmmakers - if you keep watching after the sixty-minute mark.

'I'm willing to take my lumps," says veteran Innes councillor Rainer Bloess, who has had to defend a few controversial decisions that he says were for the good of the city, and the ward.
Most visible and perhaps foremost in residents' minds is the St. Joseph-Jeanne d'Arc roundabout, which is seen by many as an expensive and potentially dangerous frill when there are so many other infrastructure priorities.
Bloess says the intersection was failing, and that once people get used to the roundabout it will improve traffic flow, enhance safety and act as a gateway to the community. He says he won't apologize for working to get federal and provincial infrastructure funds for the project.
He also supports the Navan Recycling Yard, which some residents claim is noisy, smelly and could be environmentally hazardous. Bloess says it was right to take advantage of a private initiative to reduce landfill waste from construction while creating employment. He thinks the city could use more such sites.
Bloess says he is running on his record of the past 16 years, but he has unfinished business, including seeing an east end bridge built over Kettle Island and continuing to improve road infrastructure and transit to help commuters and attract business to the ward. On the bridge, Bloess claims he will stay active on the file "whether I'm elected or not."
Keith Jansa is an occupational health and safety manager who lives in Fallingbrook just outside Innes ward. He is considered to be Bloess's leading challenger but in debates Jansa hasn't shown a strong grasp of the issues, resorting to clichés or repeating the answers of other candidates. This week he had to retract comments he made in a community newspaper, apologizing for overstating the cost to the city of the roundabout and falsely claiming that two more roundabouts were planned for the area. His slender résumé gives little evidence he's ready for council.
Bloess might be vulnerable to charges that he doesn't consult well or consider the wishes of his constituents, but not from Jansa. Even though community participation is the theme of Jansa's campaign. Bloess points out that he never sees Jansa or other opponents at the many community meetings and forums he holds.
One of Jansa's key proposals is to rearrange the bus system, at least temporarily, along the planned route for light rail, as a means to determine whether the rail plan will fly. It's hard to see what this practice run would accomplish other than chaos.
There are two other candidates in the race. Christopher Fraser is a public servant and union representative, and a former track star in the 400 metres. He's campaigning on fiscal responsibility, greater public consultation and help for seniors.
Roger Furmanczyk is a retired federal public servant. He is a long-time ward resident who promises fiscal restraint. He believes the green bin program was a mistake: "Garbage is garbage," he says. He's keen on incineration and on obtaining biofuels from trash.
Bloess is a hard-working and popular councillor who is easy to endorse. But it would have been nice to see him challenged by a slate of stronger candidates.
It's easy for Bloess to say he'll take his lumps when there's no one to dish them out.

Program Objective
The University of Tennessee, Knoxville Office of Research and Engagement (ORE) has opened applications for the FY18 Scholarly Activity and Research Incentive Fund (SARIF) Equipment and Infrastructure Fund. This award aims to enhance UT's research mission by providing support for the acquisition of state-of-the-art or innovative equipment that will advance the research mission of the university or for the repair, replacement, or upgrade of critical research infrastructure.
Prior awards have ranged from $570 to $81,000.
Review Criteria
A subcommittee of the Research Council will review the proposals and make recommendations for awards. Criteria to be used in the selection of awards from this fund are:
- Merit: Merit of the research agenda and the potential to increase scholarly achievement and/or enable the pursuit of external research funding;
- Innovation: For new purchases, how will the proposed equipment advance the state-of-the-art capabilities available and the research and/or educational mission of the university;
- Need: For repairs/upgrades/replacements, strength of justification of need for resources and critical nature of basic infrastructure;
- Impact: Number of faculty and students benefiting from the award; cross departmental or college use of the equipment; how will resource be made available to others
- Cost Share: The level of departmental/college/other cost-sharing. Generally, there is a two-to-one cost-sharing requirement by departments and colleges, however proposals with a one-to-one cost-sharing component may also be considered.
Proposals may be submitted by individual faculty members or groups of faculty whose primary appointment is associated with the UT Knoxville Campus.
Application Guidelines
Proposals are restricted to four pages in length, excluding letters of support and quad chart. Proposals exceeding four pages will be returned without review.
Proposals must include the following sections:
- Quad Chart (using this Power Point template; does not count toward four-page limit)
- Research Agenda: A statement of the individual or unit research agenda.
- Objectives:
- Requests for new purchases should explain how the equipment or infrastructure addresses the research agenda of the unit and advances the capabilities of the university through the innovative nature of the resource.
- Requests to repair, replace or enhance infrastructure should emphasize how the request addresses a vital and continuing need in the unit.
- Impact: Justification of impact showing the number of faculty and research projects that will be affected both within the unit and across campus.
- Management: Describe equipment sharing and management plan. Indicate if the equipment or resource is part of an existing or planned UT Core Facility or departmental recharge center.
- Budget: A budget summary identifying costs, agreed upon cost share from each source, and amount requested from ORE.
- Cost Share: Signed cost share memos from each source. (Does not count toward four-page limit)
Submission Process
- Deadline: Complete application package described above must be submitted electronically by the applicant at this link no later than Friday, October 13, 2017, at noon.
- Arts & Sciences Cost Share Deadline: Faculty members who intend to submit requests to this program and intend to request a financial match from the College of Arts and Sciences must submit their full proposals electronically to the college no later than noon a week prior to ORE's deadline. Submit proposals to Chris Boake at email@example.com and copy Cathy Parks at email@example.com. Chris would like each proposal to be a single PDF document.
- Evaluation: A subcommittee of the Research Council will evaluate the applications and make recommendations to Robert Nobles, Interim Vice Chancellor for Research and Engagement (VCRE). The committee recommendations will be based on the review criteria as described above. The VCRE will seek to distribute the awards over a wide range of disciplines.
- Selection Results: ORE will notify all applicants of the selection results by early November 2017.
- Awards: All equipment must be purchased by June 30, 2018. Carryover requests will be considered if there are extenuating circumstances beyond the control of the faculty member. SARIF support will be transferred to the department after payment documentation has been provided to the Office of Research and Engagement.
Please direct inquiries to:
