Pastor's prayer in Jesus' name prompts Fla. politician's apology
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (BP)--Florida Senate President James E. "Jim" King apologized to members of the legislative body April 28 after Florida Baptist pastor Clayton Cloer invoked the name of Jesus in his prayer in the Senate chamber as guest chaplain of the day.
The apology by King, a Jacksonville Republican, resulted in media coverage of the incident across the state, while the pastor of First Baptist Church of Central Florida in Orlando insisted that his prayer was consistent with guidelines given to guest chaplains.
In the 526-word prayer, Cloer mentioned Jesus twice -- in the context of thanking God for the religious freedom "to believe in Jesus Christ" and concluding the supplication "... in the name of Jesus. Amen."
As Sen. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D.-Pembroke Pines) rose to object to the prayer, Senate President King prevented her from speaking, and after the recitation of the Pledge of Allegiance told the body, "To those of you who were offended or feel hurt, I personally apologize."
Although Wasserman Schultz never spoke publicly to the matter, it was widely perceived that her objection -- as a Jewish member of the Senate -- related to Cloer's use of Jesus in the prayer.
Indicating that offensive prayers have been offered "three days in a row," King told the senators that guest chaplains have been "told to make a non-denominational prayer. I recognize that some of our Jewish members take offense to some of the things that were included in the prayer. All I can assure you is that we will intensify the language that we give to each minister, each priest, each rabbi before they come here and we would hope that in good diligence to what is about this body of different faiths, different ideas, different nationalities that those wishes would be respected."
Serving as guest chaplain for the day at the invitation of Sen. Daniel Webster, R.-Winter Garden, who is a member of First Baptist Church of Central Florida, Cloer told the Florida Baptist Witness he was attempting to do three things with the prayer -- praise the Lord, give thanks and make certain requests.
Although he was not surprised "that there is some slight controversy" about the prayer, Cloer said, "I'm shocked that the president of the Senate would choose to apologize for the prayer that I prayed."
Cloer also insisted that he was careful to observe the guidelines for prayer.
According to a copy of the letter from Secretary of the Senate Faye W. Blanton to Cloer obtained by the Florida Baptist Witness, the guidelines -- drawn from the National Conference for Community and Justice -- call for prayer that:
-- seeks the highest common denominator without compromise of conscience;
-- calls upon God on behalf of the group as a whole and avoids individual petitions;
-- uses forms and vocabulary that allow persons of different faiths to give assent to what is said;
-- uses universal, inclusive terms for the deity rather than proper names for divine manifestations. Some opening ascriptions are "Mighty God," "Our Maker," "Source of All Being," or "Creator and Sustainer." Possible closing words include "Hear Our Prayer," "In Thy Name" or simply "Amen"; and
-- remains faithful to the purposes of acknowledging divine presence and seeking blessing; not preaching, arguing or testifying.
Cloer noted that the guidelines protect the compromise of conscience and that his conscience requires that he pray in Jesus' name. He said that the prayer was corporate in nature, as stipulated by the guidlines, while also making his own petition in Jesus' name.
The prayer concluded: "We pray these things in the wonderful, matchless name, the great name of our God and Savior. I pray them in the name of Jesus. Amen."
Explaining why he must pray in Jesus' name, Cloer told the Witness, "The only reason God hears me is because of the work of Jesus Christ, because of His high priestly work of allowing me to come into the Holy of Holies.... Secondly, Jesus said, 'if you ask anything in My name,' that He's going to answer. So, when I pray, I pray in His name. That's what He taught us to do."
Although Cloer used a few notes to direct the content of his prayer, he said the prayer was not written out and was mostly extemporaneous.
Webster agreed with Cloer that his pastor did not violate the Senate's prayer guidelines. Webster told the Witness that the controversy is nothing new to him. As Speaker of the House, Webster invited several ministers who invoked Jesus' name in their prayers, including Campus Crusade founder Bill Bright.
"At that time I said I'm not going to censor prayers," Webster said. "People should be able to pray in Jesus' name. There's nothing wrong with it. There's nothing wrong with saying the name Jesus Christ in public."
Cloer said the controversy -- and especially King's apology -- indicates that there has been a "successful movement in America to secularize every aspect of public life and that secularization is beginning to take root in the minds of leaders in our state legislatures, even those leaders who may have Christian views."
A Southern Baptist minister who works with legislators told the Witness that the opposition to the use of Jesus' name in the Senate has caused him to decline invitations to pray in the upper chamber of the Florida legislature.
Tim Ireland, chairman of the Christian Leadership Council, a private, nonprofit organization that offers spiritual guidance to members of the legislature, legislative staff and lobbyists in Tallahassee, said Senate leaders "didn't want me to use the 'J-word.'"
Ireland is a former member of the Florida House of Representatives from Fort Myers/Naples.
Cloer became pastor of First Baptist Church last fall, coming from a Southern Baptist church in Memphis, Tenn.
The same day that the Cloer controversy erupted in the Senate, Southern Baptist author Rick Warren prayed in the Florida House, without incident. In his 236-word invocation, Warren prayed, "as these legislators returned to their home districts, I have some personal requests for them ..." and concluded, "In Your name. Amen."
In an e-mail interview with Florida Baptist Witness, Warren was asked if he declined to use Jesus' name in the prayer because of stipulations from House leaders or whether he typically closes prayers with "in Your name." Warren responded, "No one gave me any instructions on what to pray or what not to say.... I always end my prayers with, 'In Your name,' or 'In Jesus' name,' as the Bible teaches."
Cloer said the controversy will not prevent him from accepting invitations to pray at future civic events, as long as there are no limitations on invoking Jesus' name.
"If somebody says I cannot pray in Jesus' name, I don't pray.... To me, it's a way of denial and accommodation for me to allow somebody to dictate how I talk to God. That's an imposition on my freedom, even if it is public. As long as I can balance that with my conscience, I will continue to pray publicly."
James A. Smith Sr. is the executive editor of the Florida Baptist Witness. To read the entire prayers of Cloer and Warren, go to the Witness website, www.FloridaBaptistWitness.com.

During a ceremony at the U.S. Capitol in Washington, area Congressman Mac Thornberry (R-Clarendon) joined fellow leaders from the U.S. House of Representatives and Senate to present the Congressional Gold Medal in honor of the men of the 1st Special Service Force. Mrs. Janet Smith and her husband, Ricky Smith, of Dumas attended the ceremony on behalf of her father, Albert G. Stanton, who was a member of the elite World War II unit.
The Medal, first awarded to George Washington for his military courage during the Revolutionary War, is the nation's highest civilian honor. Today's Medal commemorates the members of the 1st Special Service Force, which Nazi troops called the "Devil's Brigade," and the vital role they played in the liberation of Europe and defeat of the Third Reich.
Other members of the 1st Special Service Force from the area include: Ball, Willard C., Claude , TX; Bishop, Jesse, Amarillo, TX; Gatling, Glenn E., Mobeetie, TX; Manley, Joseph A., Nocona, TX; Melton, Buel L., Tulia, Texas; Menefee, James, Dumas, TX; Robertson, Chandos W., Twitty, Texas; Tunnell, Martin E., Electra, Texas; Wilson, Paul E., Wichita Falls, Texas; and York, Fredrick B., Wichita Falls, Texas.
"Few men could be more deserving of this award than those of the 1st Special Service Force, and I am grateful that these men are now receiving the highest recognition for their incredible service to our nation," Thornberry said. "While no amount of medals or honors will ever fully repay our debt to men like these, this Medal will help ensure that their bravery and service will be remembered and honored as an important piece of history."
The 1st Special Service Force was comprised of U.S. and Canadian troops, and it was formed at the direction of President Franklin D. Roosevelt, Prime Minister Winston Churchill, U.S. Army Chief of Staff General George Marshall, and Lord Louis Mountbatten. The special operations unit participated in numerous campaigns during World War II in France, Italy, and along the Rhineland. The legacy of the unit proudly lives on today in the special forces units of the U.S. and Canada.
Congressional Gold Medals require broad bipartisan support. At least 290 members of the U.S. House of Representatives and 67 members of the Senate must cosponsor the legislation before any Congressional Gold Medal bill can be considered.

If you have been to a traditional Kerala feast (Sadya), at a wedding, a ceremony, or a festival like Onam, you would have definitely come across and tasted Avial (Aviyal), served alongside twenty or more other vegetarian dishes, and felt amazed how elegantly it stood out as the hero on the plate (or the plantain leaf in truly traditional instances).

Unique Features Of Laughter Yoga In Business
Quickest way to Reduce Stress: Though there are many methods being used to reduce stress, Laughter Yoga is the quickest and one
can feel the benefits from the very first session. Laughter Yoga a
single exercise which reduces physical, mental and emotional stress simultaneously and brings an emotional balance. It increases positive emotions and decreases negative emotions. Even highly talented and skilled employees cannot perform well if they are emotionally disturbed.
Healthy Exercise for Busy People: Laughter Yoga works like an aerobic exercise without sweating. Dr. Williams Fry of Stanford University proved that 10 minutes of hearty laughter is equal to 30 minutes on
the rowing machine. This helps to stimulate heart rate, increase blood circulation, supply oxygen and remove waste products.
Peak Performance: At a given time, the performance depends upon mood and Laughter Yoga has the power to change the mood state within minutes by releasing neuro-peptides from the brain cells called endorphins. Science tells us that the brain needs 25% more oxygen than other body organs. Laughter Yoga increases the net supply of oxygen which helps in optimal performance and boosts energy levels.
Team Building: 'People who laugh together work together.'Laughter Yoga is a powerful tool that connects people easily with each other. It also helps to develop a positive mental attitude, hope and optimism and increases communication skills to help in teambuilding.
Motivation And Communication: For people working in front office and sales and marketing, Laughter Yoga helps to bring a smile on their face and generate good feelings within the body. This enhances their communication and motivational skills thus increasing their client base and customer satisfaction.
Innovation And Creativity: The childlike playfulness in Laughter Yoga stimulates the right brain activity, which is the seat of creativity. This helps generate new ideas and new insights about workplace issues and problems. As one needs to introduce new ideas and constant innovation to stay ahead in this highly competitive market, Laughter Yoga helps people become more creative and innovative.
Increases Attention Span in HR Trainings: Human brain cannot concentrate for more than 90 minutes after which the attention span reduces. Even a 5-10 minute Laughter Yoga session can provide a great energy boost during long HR training sessions and conferences. It helps to increase the attention span, enhance learning skills, concentration powers and potential.

The Strato Linux V-Servers always reset their hostnames to
hXXXXXX.stratoserver.net on boot, no matter what you put in
/etc/hostname and there's no way to fix this (it's actually intended behavior). If you happen to have a Strato V-Server running Debian, here's a simple failsafe way to fix the hostname early during boot and have all daemons use your desired hostname.
Assuming that your desired fully qualified hostname is
www.example.org, then create a new file
/etc/init.d/strato-hostname-fix.sh with the following content
and setup the script using the following command:
Afterwards just reboot the machine. The above was successfully tested with Debian 6.0.4 (squeeze), and should also work with recent Ubuntu versions.

2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8: Second Row Surprise
February 19, 2013
Here's an unexpected JGC surprise: rear seat heaters. I've never had cause to use them and haven't driven with anyone who has. But shows how much I know. The Grand Cherokee Limited, starting at around $37,000 comes standard with a heated second row. Our SRT8 would cost nearly $63,000 new off the lot. Still, heated rear seats aren't a given, even in this exclusive space.
If you're buying in this exclusive space, you'd need to equip a Range Rover HSE with the Luxury package (a $4,700 option) to get heated rears, for an MSRP of around $64,700. A BMW xDrive50i starts at $64,200 and you'll have to add the $750 Cold Weather package to get heated second row (although they are three-stage heated, not the two-stage like our SRT). Finally, the Mercedes-Benz ML550 comes off like a bargain here: a $620 option that brings the sticker up to about $59,400.

In the later decades of the twentieth century, Africa plunged into political chaos. States failed, governments became predators, and citizens took up arms. In When Things Fell Apart, Robert H. Bates advances an exploration of state failure in Africa. In so doing, he not only plumbs the depths of the continent's late-century tragedy, but also the logic of political order and the foundations of the state. This book covers a wide range of territory by drawing on materials from Rwanda, Sudan, Liberia, and Congo. A must-read for scholars and policy makers concerned with political conflict and state failure.

All tractors have a serial number printed on them. Tractors have serial numbers on them for other individual parts, so one should take care to identify which is for the tractor itself.
If the number cannot be located, it may be that the serial number plate is missing or the stamp is too worn to distinguish the number. If either of these are the case, then it's impossible to know the original serial number.
Knowing the serial number of the tractor is no guarantee of receiving any history of the tractor. The only information it provides is the year in which the tractor was built.

I'm sitting in upstate NY – a town called Apalachin, in a part of NY I've never been. It's the southern part, just above the PA border. It's funny, I've driven across the state on RT 90, probably a dozen times or more, but this time, I decided to try something a little different. It's an interesting part of NY state – very wooded and rural, but not touristy/resort rural, more like industrial rural. Binghamton, which I thought of as a college town, looks more like a working town.

The Smokey Mountains
Meditating in nature requires no ink or paper. I tried, with others, to draw write or read. I did not want to read and could think of nothing to set down yet, so I collected what little firewood I could find.
All the wood was damp.
One of the most bone chilling lines I could remember from the novel Blood Meridian is "They made no fire."
We did not need a fire.
I wanted a fire.
I wanted to make a fire.
I could not sleep out there in the mountains, the forest, on the trail, in the campsite, the tent. I could not sleep when there was still light. I crawled out of the tent with Bailey, Aaron, Carrie, and Claire sleeping or attempting to sleep. Bundled in clothes I calculatingly or haphazardly chose to pack in my backpack, I walked out and around the campsite, not knowing what I was doing yet. I walked around alone and it cleared my head. I had been thinking on my feet the whole day without much to say, taking in where I was: Smokey Mountain National Park: backpacking and camping with friends in one of America's major national parks: not a day trip to Shades State Park outside of Crawfordsville, Indiana: not lounging on the beach of the Indiana dunes on the southern most edge of Lake Michigan. This seemed more serious to take in. Exposure. Hypothermia. Injury or death due misstep and falling. Carnivorous or reactive animal encounters. Forest fires, though very unlikely in this cool and balmy early winter season in December. All the wood was damp. No matter how uneventful this trip could be, I was going to see it as an adventure.
I put on my gloves and grabbed the hatchet, happy to be moving with a purpose.
These stalks that I found caught in the thin branches of young trees or barely rooted with decomposition in the cold wet ground are straw. Hearty straw with strong and rough exterior, but still straw with soft dense cotton-like interior. They remain dry when all the wood is wet, so long as they do not completely touch the ground. They are light enough to be stilted from the wet ground on occasion, but they are not rare. Many stalks of straw fall between the gaps and decompose, start over, usefully return to the earth. A trait that should be praised, but not exploited.
Collect this straw when it is the only thing that is dry. It burns fast, but it might help catch a larger fire. Look at the small trees. Not the stretchy and sappy trees whose insides are green and taste like Wormwood liquor. Look for the branches that are hard and brittle, without sap. Break off these dry limbs and collect them for kindling. Prune the hedges, cut them off with your hatchet. Snap the twigs and collect them to burn when you ought to because you have damp wood to dry and then burn.
Dad collected wood when we were sleeping.
The campsite fire in Smokey Mountain National Park was the second most difficult fire I have ever tried to keep burning. First place goes to the fire the following night at a Kampgrounds of America because it seemed as if it would have been an obvious success: Bought (and dry) firewood, manufactured composite starter log, newspaper (where before we had only sketchbook pages) and other flammable detritus. A campground with damn fine amenities. And still the fire would not stay lit.
Chopping wood in categories: Starters. Igniters. Kindling. Twigs. Sticks. Chopped and split links of wood in various widths, ideally ten to eighteen inches in length. And finally, when there is a safe bed of embers and coals glowing beneath the flames, a log. A log smoldering, emitting light and heat, to stoke and feed with the smaller wood that is quicker to ignite and burn.
Starting a fire is in my blood and upbringing. The house I was raised in was heated, as often as possible, with a wooden fireplace. We had central heating and central air conditioning, but I possess parents and extended family who believe wood fires and open windows an ideal and not arcane choice. Chopping wood was the most cathartic and satisfying chore of my childhood; to me its better than fishing. My parents still rely heavily upon the heat of their wood stove and will never be without a fire pit on their property. Starting a fire is like riding a bike to me; even if I momentarily forget how to do it, I will relearn how through trial and error.
Two of the most difficult fires I've ever tried to start. It was frustrating, I admit, and failing to start a long lasting fire left me feeling defeated for a moment. With that defeat I realized where I was and who I was with again. Friends.
Bailey Mileham, Aaron Bumgarner, Carrie Wing, and Claire Burley. Friends experiencing this camping trip in similar and varying ways. Hiking, ascending, descending, exploring, studying, seeing this foreign, but strangely familiar environment. In the woods, in the mountains. among the powerful rush of rock bedded rivers and the oozing and trickling streams without name or prediction. Land marks where white rolling water falls over rock and moss and bare rooted trees teetering on the precipice of collapse into the valley below. Evidence of animal life in these mountains, both human or otherwise. The ruins of settlements, not ancient, but old, at this time, damp, mossy, blanketed in flora. It felt like a temperate rain forest. Everything was green, brown, blue, gray, a little yellow, a little red, and sometimes almost black, and sometimes almost white. It was an unexpectedly affecting palette. So much green in December with occasionally glorious beams of sunshine. Shafts of natural light breaking though the canopy, warming the ground and our faces.
How good food tastes after you've truly worked for your meal. How delicious water tastes when your body just begins to truly need it, pumped and filtered directly from a cold mountain stream. How satisfying to rest and stretch without a backpack on for just a moment, splashing water on your face and neck, taking a piss. Simple and natural needs met in a way that can only be understood and appreciated in a place such as this.
When things slow down for a moment, we relearn to love the little things. The things we realize are truly very big things. I'm very glad to have relearned this with the beautiful people I was with. If you find yourself in the same situation coming down off of the mountain, let me suggest grabbing a meal at Riverstone Family Restaurant in Townsend, Tennessee. Their food is delicious, and the people friendly and generous.
Thank you.

Engineering the Sales Process for Niche Software (Guest Post)
Niche software products are becoming a huge way for entrepreneurs to create a new revenue stream and start a business with little capital and equity. With little risk put in, just asking a few questions to the thought leaders in the niche field, you can have a product created the help solve their problems and needs.
Developing a software product is very easy. One doesn't have to know how to code or how to do any back end work to develop a product. All you have to do- is ask business people in the niche specific questions to find out problems software can solve. More information on Niche Software Development in 2013.
Developing is easy, selling the product is hard.
If you have a product that no one will purchase, there's no sense starting the development process to begin with.
An easy way to sell products is to start with the product that solves a problem or a group of problems. We start with a product that helps a customer either save time or money. This provides us with a better chance of making a sale, rather than selling them something that they don't possibly need or don't benefit from.
Say a business still uses direct-mail, and they have their assistant write letters put them in envelopes, place stamps on the envelope, and send the letters out. Now selling this business an automatic stamp machine to elevate the one problem with adding stamps doesn't really help the business that much. Selling the business an automated automatic e-mail system telling them they could do away with direct mail completely changes the problem completely. They can now utilize their time in places other than sending out direct mail.
Making sure you start by solving problems for customers is vital to the success of selling the product.
A great way to find out if you have a product people want to purchase, is by calling them directly. Call your customers ahead of time before you start development or before the product is finished. If your product is specializing in e-mail marketing, ask the customer what they're currently doing for marketing their business. Target your customers asking directly if they use e-mail marketing or if they have ever considered using e-mail marketing.
If yes:
- what products have they used?
- are they still using that product?
- if they changed products?
- what do they like/don't they like?
If no:
- why not?
- are you looking to implement in the future?
Gathering this information will help you determine if you should continue with your business venture or can it. Cold calling customers will also help you feel the environment and the culture of the industry you're trying to enter. It will let you know if they're more relaxed or more professional. It will give you a first hand view on how many levels it takes to get the decision-maker.
So you've reached the decision-maker, asked the right questions, realized that this is the market and industry that you should continue pursuing, but you don't have a product, what should you do next? You've come this far, you have them on the phone, you have their attention, make the sale!
Pre-selling your product before launch is critical.
Even if you don't have a product yet you can always sell them something that's in development. Companies always sell a beta version of products before release. If they don't sell the beta version, many promise something in the future. A very simple and easy way to make the sale is to explain to the decision-maker or business owner exactly what it is you are doing and producing. Offered to send them more information; all you need is their e-mail address.
Once you have the e-mail address of your potential customer or hot lead, you can then send them information. You will direct them them to your features page or a landing page with a video or image of what your product or service can do. Hopefully, you have placed a "Buy Now" button on the page to make the purchase easy and seamless for your customer.
If your product is not ready for delivery, as soon as you receive payment from a customer contact them immediately. Let them know that the product is in development or on backorder but that you value them as one of your first customers. You may want to consider giving these first customers a discount or let them know that they will receive a certain feature or membership option for free. Having these first customers are vital to the snowball effect that will come from the followers within the industry.
Demo using screenshots.
The developer could still be working on the product, but you should have what the designer has made. Show the customer what the user interface will feature; showcase what the back end and the front end will look like and how it will operate. Let the customer see how the product looks and feels even if you do not have a functioning product.
Pre-selling the product is probably the most important part of the niche software creation process. More important than developing and designing, without sales you don't have a business. Remember to sell or get lead information every time you connect with an owner or decision maker.

About Tangerine & Olive

American made, with ethically sourced materials, is at the heart of what we do, what we sell and who we are. We love supporting our makers and hope you will, too.
As nature and wildlife lovers, we try to get outdoors and explore as often as we can whether it be on skis, on snowshoes, or our favorite, in kayaks! Our love for the outdoors and our beloved state of Vermont shines throughout the shop. From the moose and bear pillows we carry, right down to our fun, VW van letterpress post cards… and everything in between. Any explorer, adventure seeker, or outdoorsy person will find something they love in our little, sunny shop overlooking the river.
At Tangerine & Olive you will find lots of thoughtful gift ideas, from handcrafted skin care lines (we carry a vegan line!) to American grown soy candles that come in amazing scents.

PROSSER, Wash. -- A tragedy in Prosser today, as a young boy is found dead in an irrigation pond. So far, the Benton County Sheriff's office says it appears it was an accident. The two-year-old was found near Kingtull Road.
The 2-year-old's guardian put the boy down for a nap and then took a nap herself. When she woke up, the boy was missing. She called her husband home from work to help her look but then called for help. Sherriff's deputies found the boy floating in the pond almost three hours later.
Neighbor Yvette Fitzgerald says, "I think of my own kids and their older now but anything can happen at any time and you just can't go back in time, so it's really sad."
The boy was pronounced dead after being taken to Prosser Memorial Hospital. Sherriff's deputies have not released the address of the home or the names of the family. They are waiting until they have notified the next of kin.

What can I do to make my nails stronger and grow faster? I got my nails done for my sister's wedding. I didn't want to go because I knew it would damage my nails, but I went. And now I'm facing the consequences. My nails are really thin, they break off easily, and they don't grow hardly at all.

Increase your Biotin dosage. Biotin is really good for nails and hair. I take a multivitamin with Biotin in it but I also take two Biotin tablets at the same time. I take it for my hair but my mother takes the same dosage for her nails (she has weak nails like you described).
The biotin suggestion is one I use (for my hair actually but it helps with nails, too), but since you sign yourself 'horselover' I'm surprised you don't know about using hoof conditioner on your nails to strengthen them. It REALLY works, and quick too!
Apply it liberally with a cotton swab to your nails and cuticles at night before bed; apply a thin coat with the swab several times during the day-you'll have lovely, strong nails in about a week.
You can buy it at tack stores and pet centres like PetsMart. I used to buy it at Wal-Mart in the pet section but I live in the UK now, and don't know if Wal-Mart still sells horse gear in their pet aisles. It's not terribly expensive, doesn't stain, and has a nice fragrance no matter where you buy it-the stuff I get at the horse centre here in the UK looks, acts, and smells just like the stuff I used to get at Wal-Mart.
I had artificial nails for my daughter's wedding 6 years ago and never had any problem with my natural nails. After those nails came off I often bought kits at discount stores and applied them myself and still never had any problem between applications. Now my doctors have me on so many over the counter supplements that seem to have my nails growing like weeds. I have an awful time keeping them at what I call a reasonable length. My major complaint now is that at 71 years of age my hair is getting thinner.
Prenatal vitamins, getting enough protein foods, and an omega-3 supplement is good for hair and nails. Vitamin A (in carrots) is great for skin and nails.
Gelatin capsules, which can be bought at any drug store really help. It will take time though for anything to work. A bottle of the capsules is usually around $5.00. But you will need to take them for several months. Don't expect immediate results.

Featured in the TOP 10 SPORTS apps in USA
First real video delay - continuously showing what just happened for quick visual feedback
Ideal for sport coaches, PE teachers, professional athletes and dancers … or if you just don't want to look silly on the dance floor :)
- This applications requires both front and back camera to work.
- This applications is specially designed not to use your flash drive for delaying the video as other apps. Prolonged writing to a flash drive shortness its life span.
Professional gymnastics coach Rick McCharles:
"So simple, it works. Our best use was at the end of the Beam. A 6 sec delay. The girls would step off the Beam and check their alignment.
Professional physical education teacher Jarrod Robinson:
The most exceptional video feedback app I have seen on an iOS device ... This app is a must have for PE Teachers and sports coaches who are keen to take performance analysis to the next level. Use it in gymnastics, dance, track and field or during skill development. The possibilities are endless.
www.apppicker.com review:
"Bust a Move Delay Mirror is a perfect app for keeping fit if you are a tad shy in front of people ... or if you are simply practicing your striking poses in the mirror."
By James McDermott
5/5 Great app!
Works for what I need, nice that you can have a delay rather than asking someone to record each time.
By R.v.G
5/5 Nice Tool
Perfect for sport lessons with video feedback.
By awholelottatry
5/5 A great technical training tool for sport and fitness
This is exactly what I was looking for! Needed it to perfect technique in Crossfit Olympic lifting. Every technical sport could use this valuable tool.
Ever wanted to learn a new move ?
Be it for professional dancing, gymnastics, golf, basketball, tennis, martial arts, breakdance, strike a pose or other use.
A mirror is nice but it's hard to move and look the same time, sometimes even impossible when not facing forward.
A video camera is OK but it is a hassle with all the start, stop, rewind, positioning and other.
So in the end you don't use either, give up on learning something new and move on with your life.
"Bust a Move Video Delay" solves these problems.
It gives you an easy to use tool with quick feedback. You see what you just did, so you can correct it, try again, look again, correct ... and so on.
Also, after the initial setup, no interaction is needed so you can focus on training without any distractions.
So what does a "Video delay" do?
It continuously shows you what just happened seconds ago. There is no alternating record or play phase, just continuous playback but with a given delay. This way you get fast and easy accessible video feedback.
Also no tapping, rewinding or other interactions are needed. Once set up it works hands free so you can focus on your moves.
Now there are just two easy steps:
(do what you want to learn)
(see what you just did and what's wrong)
This way you get instantaneous feedback so you can quickly learn on your mistakes and get better in no time.
- "hands free" continuous playback … but with a delay
- universal app for both iPhone/iPod and iPad
- portrait and landscape support
- delays from 0.25 second up to 2 minutes
- uses device memory instead of its flash drive
- 2x2 mode: 4 different delays so you can see yourself 4 times in a row
- "frame by frame" mode
- auto hiding interface controls
- "Live View" for easy positioning of the camera and setup
- front to rear camera switch
- horizontal flip
- x2 Zoom with panning
- exposure setting
- TV Output
- and a manual with pictures inside, just in case :)

Apparently everyone thinks it's really bizarre that Chris Shumway has suddenly shut down his huge $8 billion hedge fund, Shumway Capital, especially after it just got a sizable investment from Goldman Sachs.
Shumway announced his retirement in November of this year, and said that a portfolio manager, Tom Wilcox, would take over.
Hedge fund managers had been retiring left and right, Shumway was the 5th high profile manager who'd retired in the past 6 months, so it was strange (he's only 45), but it didn't really get weird until last week, when Shumway announced that he was shutting Shumway.
Shumway told investors last week:
I am writing to let you know that after 9 great years, I have decided to return all external capital back to you, our partners, by the end of the first quarter of 2011.
Click here to read the full letter >
The word was that investors had pulled $3 billion, so he figured there wasn't enough interest. But that doesn't make sense because $3 billion is a lot, but it's not even half of Shumway's reported $8 billion in assets under management.
So now everyone's wondering what really happened. If you know anything, let us know.
Here's what people in the industry told Hedge Fund Alert about the sudden closure:
"They look stupid, like they don't know what's going on," said a consultant who advises pension plans on hedge fund investments.
The buzz among market players this week was that Goldman's private equity vehicle looks bad for investing in Shumway at what was likely the firm's top valuation.
"From where we are, it appears that the firm unwound simply as a result of a series of bad PR moves," said a market player. "Astonishing, really."
Shumway was one of Wall Street's best-known hedge fund managers until he unexpectedly shut his hedge fund last week.

I bought one of these for around $22 on Amazon (then bought two more for all of my printers):
...it is a 12" x 12" .8mm thick sheet of PEI/Ultem that comes with a 12x12 adhesive.
And it does REALLY well! I do not have a heated bed, and PETG, PLA, PLA++, PET+, all stick to the surface very well. It is very weird...no glue, no nothing, as long as your initial layer goes down well, the print sticks there...but when you go to remove the print, it pops off really easily. I ran several 6 hour prints with thin base layers that would be prone to curling up before and all was solid....yet removed easily.
All you need to do is clean the plate after each print with a little 90%+ isopropyl alcohol.
I like, so far! And it's a bit better than BuildTak, because your nozzle can't burn/etch a hole/line into the PEI sheet, since it is highly resistant to heat.
Make sure when you install the adhesive to peel back the paper backing from both sides at an extreme angle to have it release fully, and when applying the adhesive to the build plate, go slowly and make sure there are no bubbles....though you can also use alligator clips to test it out, I found that caused the sheet to warp a bit....but was OK for a short sample print before jumping in on the adhesive.
PEI (Ultem) sheet on Series 1 as build surface
Share any mods you have made and the awesome results.

Mischa Barton recently had a fashionable sit down with Canadian photographer Benjamin Kanarek.
Barton looked like her usual perfectly polished self in this stunning sartorial series. While her shoulder-length hair has perfect, playful waves, her nude lipstick looks fresh and fun, and her cat-eye shadow gives a sharp edge.
The styling also had a sense of being polished yet edgy. Kanarek captured mostly head shots, letting the accessories speak for themselves. Lots of fierce black jackets were paired with perfectly preppy white T-shirts. On top of that, jewelry in the form of a statement necklace, chic metal bracelets and luxurious earrings add to the outfit's edge without taking away the focus from the starlet's lovely face. It all came together to tell the story of a stylish Hollywood girl looking fab as she wanders the world.

AARUSH PURI's review on Fiat Linea Emotion Multijet
Year of Manufacture : 2013 | Driven no. of Kms. : 56759
- Pros: GREAT FEATURES
- Cons: NONE
This the top variant of the Fiat Linea. ABS is an advantage in top trim.The acceleration of the T-Jet is amazing and it is first turbo-petrol in its segment. The power produced by this is good and it produces about 114bhp. The high end variants are blessed with an advanced audio unit that has various input options. It is bestowed with an in-built USB port which is useful for connecting pen-drive or mobile phone.

All 18 Songs from The Karate Kid Soundtrack
The studio did not release a soundtrack album with the songs from The Karate Kid remake, but you can find all 18 of the songs from the movie here. This remake is much more than a remix. It takes you on a completely different music journey, with tunes from The Roots, Gorillaz, Flo Rida, Lady GaGa, Justin Bieber, John Mayer and even some AC/DC. I guess the new direction isn't surprising. Jaden Smith is no Ralph Macchio; nor is Jackie Chan anything like Pat Morita.
The music is certainly a departure from the original Karate Kid which featured Survivor's Moment of Truth, as well as the movie's climactic and iconic song "You're the Best" by Joe Esposito. It's also far from the musical tack taken in Karate Kid 2, which was defined by Peter Cetera's love them "Glory of Love".
It's a good mix of songs though and is fitting for the re-imagination of the fish out of water, kid fights for his honor and the respect of a guiding elder story that is at the heart of each of the Karate Kid films.
Here's the complete list of songs from the 2010 version of The Karate Kid. They should be in the order that they appeared in the movie. I've also added the scenes that they were in.
- Opening song – Do You Remember – Kamaljit Jhooti
- Taking plane to China – Say – John Mayer
- Watching TV in Beijing apartment – SpongeBob SquarePants Theme – Patrick Pinney, Devin Johnson, Sara Paxton and Camryn Walling
- Playing basketball – The Tribute (DJ Zeph Remix) – Colossus
- Ping Pong – Here I Come – The Roots
- Girl's headphones – Minerva Quartets – Camilla Kjoll, Lina Marie Arnes, Lisa Sorenson and Tiril Dorum Bengtsson
- Song playing on his headphones – Baby I'm Back – Baby Bash
- Nocturne For Piano No. 20 In C Sharp Minor – Alyssa Park
- Hahn will teach him kung fu and skateboarding – Dirty Harry (Schtung Chinese New Year Remix) – Gorillaz
- (unknown scene) – Steppin' Up – K T Wilder
- Going to have fun/ day with the girl – Bang Bang – K'Naan
- He plays the dance game – Low – Flo Rida
- She plays the dance game – Poker Face – Lady GaGa
- Boy's audition – Flight Of The Bumblebee – Balazs Szokolay
- Jackie Chan sings in the car – Xin Ying – Xuan Qu
- Kicks the bell and start of the tournament – Back In Black – AC/DC
- Wins first match and montage of the next matches – Higher Ground – Red Hot Chili Peppers
- End credits – Never Say Never – Justin Bieber
Original music for The Karate Kid – James Horner
90 Responses to "All 18 Songs from The Karate Kid Soundtrack"
Thanks for making this track list. I saw the movie on Sunday and I wondered what song was playing when Dre and Mei-Ying were playing hookey and running around before they got to the DDR part. I listened to the songs but it just doesn't sound like what I remember.
It is up there, it's the Dirty Harry remix by Gorillaz. It's on iTunes.
I loved the music, my favorites were "do u remember", and "baby i'm back.
where can i download the file..
is there a folder file??
Hi, I'm looking for voilin song which Mei Ying played..
What song was that??
I was wondering if anyone knew what the name of song is from the scene with the lady & the snake?
hey,,,i juz found it,,,its a part of the song journey to the spiritual mountains-james horner…
karate kid was really good. i love it
U R The Best!!
I like Thiks Film..
That link for Nocturne No. 20 in C Sharp Minor is totally not the right thing – the link is a piano track, but that's the song played on the violin in the movie. The actual track by Alyssa Park doesn't seem to be available, but there are several versions of the piece played on violin by other musicians available for download. Here's one: http://www.amazon.com/Nocturne-In-C-Sharp-Minor/dp/B000SFV0UQ

Hi..I'd really love to know the song Mei Ling played as well. Beautiful.
I love the part where Dre and his girlfriend went to an arcade. They danced to songs such as "Low" by Flo Rida featuring T-Pain and "Poker Face" by Lady Gaga. These songs appeared in Karate Kid (The 2010 Film).
So what fool decided not to put these songs on the soundtrack?

My friend wanted me to go see Karate Kid with her and at first I was a little dubious as I'm not really a Karate, Kung Fu sort of girl but when I actually saw the movie it changed my perspective on Kung Fu COMPLETELY!
I saw this whole new edge to it, something different.
Plus, I love Dre his is ADORABLE (Hi, Jaden "Dre"!!! If you ever read this my name is Lindsay and I'm 12 years old like you!!!!).
Back to the point. Anyways, what I was trying to say was, apart from the fact that Jaden is CUUUUUUUUUUUTE, is that…
You know what? I can't do this, I better end this message now before this end up on a completely Jaden Smith-centric message.

I really wish someone would put all of these songs in a compilation and put them online, either in a torrent, or in a rapidshare file or something. I've been looking for over 3 hours now and I've only managed to find about 4 of these songs! I don't know why they are so obscure, but this is seriously frustrating! Does anyone else know where these songs can be found other than itunes? I can't use itunes on my computer, and even if I could I don't have enough money to buy anything right now. Any help would be great! Thanks 🙂

i fell in love with the soundtrack played when they were in the plane,thanks for leting me know the song 'say' by john mayor,and i love the movie and jaden smith.
do somebody knows the name of the song, when jaden is running with the girl?,when they ran out of school and she showed him the city, I remember they are running through a relly big fountain, I think the song says something like she show me or something like that, I thought it was maroon5, byt now I guess it isn't, I've been looking for it for longer than 2 month, but i still can't find it
Thanks – have just finished editing together soundtracks for the original trilogy that includes all orchestra music and as many songs as I could get hold of, and now starting on KK2010 – your list made short work of finding out what some of the songs are…coupled with james Horner's excvellent soundtrack, this should make for a pretty cool album….
I love it..
I did not read all above reviews but did anybody try to know what does the chinese girl play on the violin audition? I cant find any reference to that piece. Is it Chausson ? Albinoni?
The movie sucked.
Jaden Smith looks like a little girl. He sucks.
Jackie Chan's WORST film by far.
Soundtrack pretty much sucks. Listen to AC/DC and RHCP, those are dumbed down versions. I was like wtf?!?
Do yourself a favor if you even remorelty liked this crap, watch the original.
While Will Smith is tollerable and likeable, Jada's a C and you can see the egotude in this little hip-hop girlyman.
i loved this one AND the original. both were SOOO great!
This might not be easy to find, but what is the ring tone Mei Ying had on her cell phone in the movie when she got a call that her audition was changed?
Why are all of you putting comments on this?? What a waste of time! I'm not trying to tell you what to do or being mean but why??? You can put comments is you want but you don't have a life. GET A LIFE YUH LAZY BUM
this movie simply amazing,I saw this movie many time.in this movie music is very good.jaden smith done very good job…

Lol, there's no doubt that these up and coming Martial Arts like any other athlete is larger, superior, quicker, stronger and a lot more skilled. Weather it is Conventional Martial Arts or MMA, starting at such a young age is such a huge advantage.

Thankssss very much,,

In the future people will have more relatives, will spend more time in the home and will have to bear more financial responsibility for their relationships.
Those were among the predictions made by social scientists and family researchers at a recent conference sponsored by the American Council of Life Insurance. National community organizations gathered to analyze trends shaping the future and the American family.
High divorce rates and the strong tendency of divorced persons to remarry are combining to create a new family structure, blurring the traditional two-parent duties of child-rearing, according to sociologist Frank F. Furstenberg Jr. of the University of Pennsylvania. "A greater proportion of fathers are now willing and even eager to share child care, if not actual custody," he said.
Technological advances in the workplace could increase the amount of time parents spend in the home, said Isabel Sawhill, director of employment and labor policy of the Urban Institute, citing the advent of home computers. By the year 2000, she predicted, computers will have replaced all of today's blue-collar workers and will greatly simplify the tasks of white-collar workers.
If wage-earners never have to leave the home, "then a family disruption also becomes a work disruption," said sociologist Arlene Skolnick of the University of California, Berkeley. On the other hand, she added, families will have regained their economic reason for being, "and that could enhance their emotional function."
Sarah H. Ramsey, assistant professor of law at Claude W. Pettit College of Law, Ohio northern University, said state legal codes are already adapting to changing patterns of marriage and divorce. Supreme Court decisions have given wives a say in the disposal of jointly held property while making wives responsible for alimony payments in certain cases. Divorce courts no longer have to fix blame before dissolving a marriage and statutory provisions dealing with marriage and child support are mostly sex-neutral, Ms. Ramsey said.
Depersonalization in society and the workplace is increasing the emotional burden on the family, according to Graham Spanier, associate dean of the College of Human Development, Pennsylvania State University. He added that a current trend of young people toward delaying a first marriage means that husbands and wives of the future will have more experience, maturity, and economic security when they do marry -- increasing the likelihood of what he called "high quality and high stability" marriages.

Hi there,
thanks for your site and the forums, which are one of the most valuable MS sources on the web with lots of expertise and eloquency. Since I'm running a German MS news site called www.ms-reporter.de, I stopped by several times before to look for certain details.
Now, the CCSVI threads lead me to a new level of usage, and so I'm de-lurking and registered today.
For myself, dxed in 1999, using Copaxone since '00 and getting regular intrathecal TCA (Triamcinolone acetonide) once a month. (The second therapy is not well known in US, I think? I could try to open a new thread, if required.)
I'm a 38 y.o. man, living in the south west of Germany, married, with a son and working as a web consulting freelancer, sometimes more, sometimes less -- you know how it is
Thanks again for your hard work to keep this forum what it is: Friendly, informative, well-structured and independent.
All the best for you all,

LOS ANGELES (AP) _ Marcy DeJesus, who co-founded the Los Angeles chapter of Mothers Against Drunk Driving years before her own teenage son was killed by a drunken driver, has died. She was 67.
DeJesus, who had been undergoing kidney dialysis, died March 12 at a West Hills nursing home, according to her niece Julie Wallach.
"She worked tirelessly for MADD. She never wanted accolades, she was not interested in praise," Wallach said. "She just wanted justice for victims."
In 1981, DeJesus helped found the local chapter of MADD with Barbara Bloomberg, whose son Seth had been killed by a drunken driver. DeJesus's oldest son, Kiley, was Seth's best friend.
Almost a decade later, DeJesus' 19-year-old son Adam was killed in a head-on collision with a drunken driver. Adam's girlfriend suffered major injuries in the crash and later became a nurse who often helped care for DeJesus.
The driver was convicted and sentenced to 18 years to life in prison.
In the days after her son's death, DeJesus struggled to understand whether her years of advocacy had made an impact.
"What's been going through my mind … has been, 'Ten years of work and what have I been doing? Has it made any difference at all if they can get my son?"' DeJesus told the Los Angeles Times in 1990.
Overcome with grief, she soon resigned as MADD's local administrator.
DeJesus' husband of 25 years died of a brain tumor in 1985. Four years later, DeJesus suffered a stroke and had to walk with a cane. Her son Adam had returned home from UC Santa Barbara to be with her when he was killed.
Along with her son Kiley and niece Julie, DeJesus was survived by her sister Linda Fulmer.
Plans for a memorial service were pending.
