Manchester City star Leroy Sane suffered ankle ligament damage in Cardiff
It is not clear when Sane will return to contention.
Manchester City winger Leroy Sane suffered ankle ligament damage during the 2-0 FA Cup fourth-round win over Cardiff, the Premier League leaders have announced.
Pep Guardiola called for players to receive more protection after the 22-year-old was injured by a challenge from Cardiff's Joe Bennett, who was shown a yellow card for the tackle and later sent off for a second bookable offence.
While confirming the nature of the injury, City did not put a timetable on a return for Sane, who has scored 11 goals and provided 14 assists in all competitions this season.
Thanks for all your messages yesterday and today! I suffered ankle ligament damage, but I think it isn't as bad as it looked. 😉 My rehab will start soon and I'm motivated to be back on the pitch as soon as possible! 🔥⚽🔥 #inSané #LS19 @ManCity pic.twitter.com/WQCpdFrgjO— Leroy Sané (@LeroySane19) January 29, 2018
Sane was injured after being caught on his standing leg by a late, studs-up tackle from Bennett in the latter stages of the first half.
The German did not reappear after the break and Guardiola later said he feared he could be "out for a while", possibly a month.
Guardiola was furious about the challenge, and about a later one by Bennett on Brahim Diaz, and went onto the field after the final whistle to complain to referee Lee Mason.
Bennett was shown a second yellow for his challenge on Diaz.
Guardiola later called for referees to do more to protect players from bad challenges.
Pep Guardiola furious after Leroy Sane injury in FA Cup win - but Cardiff boss Neil Warnock hits back. https://t.co/fewjHxbcdb— Phil Blanche (@philblanche) January 28, 2018
He said: "The only thing they can do is that – protect the players, because then it would not happen again.
"It happened once with Leroy, then it happened with Brahim again at the end.
"So for the football in general, and for the players who are the artists, they must do that."
Guardiola has made this point several times before this season. Kevin De Bruyne has been on the receiving end of bad tackles from Tottenham's Dele Alli and Crystal Palace's Jason Puncheon, and Raheem Sterling from Spurs' Harry Kane.
Newcastle's Jacob Murphy also caught Ilkay Gundogan high. Each time Guardiola has called for firmer action from referees.

You know when you've just made a nice homemade meal and it has not only taken ages but you have put so much effort into making it for your family? Well, imagine that only the children are grown up and they've made the meal while you are a guest at their dinner table. In this situation what I am looking forward to most is picking holes in absolutely everything about it.
"This isn't my favourite"
"There isn't very much"
"What's for afters?"
"Why have you got more than me?"
I may even go for the full on tantrum in the style of DD2... "Yuk! I'm not eating that!" complete with tears and a flounce away from the table.
I might just nonchalantly wander through their living rooms and change the channel on the television without asking, or sit in front of them obscuring their view, or play a game on my iPad very loudly when they are trying to watch the football/golf/Judge Rinder. Lets see how they like it.
I've already admitted that my children are pretty good on the sleep front, when they are asleep that is. It's just the whole bedtime routine that's a bit annoying. I wonder if they would find it equally as annoying if I came downstairs for a drink every ten minutes or if I needed someone to do up my onesie after I'd been to the toilet. Maybe DH and I will just have a jolly good row from the guest bedroom in the style of DS1 and DS2 until the floor shakes. Will they too use the immortal line "I'll turn the internet off if you don't calm down and go to bed!" to stop us in our tracks?
Toothpaste on the walls, wet towels on the floor and I will use up all their bubble bath and open all the new shampoo before the old one is finished (oh and turn the bathroom into a turkish bath like DS1 does). Will it annoy them as much as all of this annoys me? Oh, and I won't offer to tidy it all up. Ever.
The final straw. My perfectly decorated living room ceiling was recently spoilt by a tantruming child. This particular tantrum was so loud and devastating that it made the plaster fall off the ceiling downstairs. I am slightly bitter about it as you can possibly tell. Dare I exact the same revenge on any of my children by stamping so hard on the floor in their home so that the nailheads pop through the ceiling? Dare I?

Why Accounts Get Frozen
Debtors who file for chapter 7 bankruptcy give up their nonexempt assets to the bankruptcy trustee who then liquidates them to pay as many of the debtor's creditors as possible. In contrast, exempt assets are those protected from liquidation either by a federal or state exemption; in other words, the debtor gets to keep them. If the debtor has money in his bank account when he files for bankruptcy, the trustee will freeze the account and seize this money only if the funds are not protected by an exemption, or if the trustee suspects fraud. At other times, the bank may freeze the account. This is because some banks automatically freeze customer accounts upon notice of a bankruptcy filing. If the debtor owes the bank any money, these funds are used to satisfy the debt.

Devon will be filling us in on one of her favorite artists: Patrick Chapman.
Pat Chapman is a long time friend and fiancé of my best friend, and he is also one of my favorite contemporary artists on the scene today. I loved visiting Pat's tiny art studio in Los Angeles. It's completely overwhelming and, as I would imagine many art studios to be, a mess. I had to resist my obsessive compulsive urges to immediately start organizing and tidying up. I think Pat picked up on my shock and offered me a beer. Every surface is covered with empty paint cans, spray paint bottles, magazines, paint pens, brushes, and books. He has paintings covering the walls and most surfaces as well as sketches and smaller pieces strewn about the floor. I stepped on one of these smaller ones accidentally and felt terrible about it until Pat said not to worry, "I'm not keeping that one." It looked great to me and it looks even better now framed in my living room! That has to be some sort of a faux pas in the art world, but I'm not sure. The majority of his pieces are larger than life canvases dripping with bright colors and bold shapes. Pat can have ten paintings going at one time, breaking from one to work on another, adding to the overall chaos and energy of his studio and in his art. It was really interesting to see the progression that his work goes through to get from blank canvas to finished piece. Many of Pat's paintings are strange and eerie abstractions of people and faces. His twin brother and older brother are recurring elements in a lot of his work as is his fiancé. Pat has several cityscapes that are amazing as well. I have included pictures of some of my favorites but visit his website to see more past and future projects and to get information on upcoming events. www.patchapmanart.com
In addition to his painting, Patrick recently worked with Phillipe Stark to create chalkboards that adorn the restaurant of the new SLS hotel, which we highlighted back in a September post

Masquerade began their 2016 season looking at the theme of 'Happy Horror Happenings!', which involved a light-hearted look at the horror genre and participants explored this creatively through writing, theatre, sound and arts and crafts. They experimented with creating dramatic tension using rhythm and repetition, building atmosphere and 'shocking' the audience. They took part in bi-weekly sessions from April – December 2016.
They paraded and performed at local events including St Myllin's Day in June and at the Workhouse Party in July to family audiences. There were about 50 people in attendance to each of these performances. The project culminated in an entertaining evening at Theatr Llwyn on Saturday the 3rd of December with a performance called Ghost Academy to which there was an audience of over 70 who thoroughly enjoyed the performance.

State's Antismoking Efforts 'Work,' Times Says
Californians "should be gratified by moves in other states to copy our aggressive antismoking efforts," a Los Angeles Times editorial says. California voters approved a 25-cent-per-pack cigarette tax in 1998 that helped generate $45 million this year for antismoking media advertising, the editorial notes, helping to fund the state's $114 million tobacco control budget, which includes funding for school programs, community groups and smoking research. Noting that states like Iowa, Massachusetts and Florida are using money from the national tobacco settlement to fund new antismoking campaigns after studying California's antitobacco laws, the editorial asserts that "California's approach works." As further evidence that the state's antismoking efforts are effective, the editorial points to a new CDC study that says lung cancer rates in California have dropped 14% between 1988 and 1997. In addition, the editorial notes that the number of teenage smokers has fallen by one-third in "recent years." Moreover, the editorial says that only 18% of Californians smoke, down from 25% in 1988. The editorial concludes that the "new data on lung cancer and smoking rates underscore the value of [the state's antismoking] efforts" (Los Angeles Times, 12/8).This is part of the California Healthline Daily Edition, a summary of health policy coverage from major news organizations.

There is no way around it: The best new trucks under $25,000 reflect a major shift in the marketplace. With both automakers and customers paying more attention to mid-size pickups, pricing of the full-size entries has drifted ever higher. As a result, the only trucks currently available for less than $25K are from the smaller size class—and those are few and far between. Customers also should know that the trucks that do fit our financial criteria are, for the most part, lower-trim models that may be lacking in the latest amenities. The good news? Budget-focused shoppers can still find a fair number of inexpensive choices that are just fine as work trucks, with some surprising upgrades in the mix.
10 Best New Trucks under $25,000
Photo Credit: Chevrolet
2017 Chevrolet Colorado Base Extended Cab
The Bowtie brand's best new trucks under $25,000 are based on the 2017 Chevrolet Colorado, which has an MSRP that's well below that mark at $20,000. Now, that Base trim truck is only available in an extended-cab, long-box configuration, with a 6-speed manual transmission, and rear-wheel drive. Yet you do get a robust list of standard features that includes air conditioning, a rearview camera, power locks and windows, a 6-speaker display audio system, and Chevy Teen Driver technology, to encourage good habits in younger drivers. This model additionally checks the boxes for standard functionality boosters like a CornerStep rear bumper and cargo box lighting. Motivation comes from a peppy 4-cylinder engine that combines 200 horsepower and 26 mpg highway.

2017 Chevrolet Colorado Work Truck Extended Cab
Also qualifying as one of the best new trucks under $25,000 is the 2017 Chevrolet Colorado in its Work Truck trim. The primary difference between the Work Truck and the Base trim is that the former adds dual rear seats with integrated under-seat storage—and increases its MSRP to $24,225. The Base truck, by contrast, only has front bucket seats. But there is another bonus. The Work Truck is eligible for a much wider range of options. If you shop carefully, you can stay under our price ceiling and choose from a 6-speed automatic transmission ($650), a MyLink infotainment system with 7-inch touchscreen and Android Auto/Apple CarPlay smartphone integration ($375), a chrome appearance bundle ($505), and more.

2017 GMC Canyon SL Extended Cab
For a more premium feel in the best new trucks under $25,000, there's the 2017 GMC Canyon. The mid-size pickup from GM's Professional Grade brand has a sticker price as low as $20,885 in its extended cab, long box setup. Those trucks deliver standard content such as a rearview camera, projector-type headlamps with bold LED signature lighting, a power-adjustable 4-way driver's seat, power amenities in the cabin, and a 6-speaker audio system with a color display. The SL trim also rides on 16-inch cast aluminum wheels and, its standard chrome rear bumper has integrated CornerSteps for easy bed access. As for the Canyon SL's standard powertrain, that pairs a 6-speed manual transmission with a 4-cylinder, 200-horsepower engine.

2017 GMC Canyon Extended Cab
As is the case with GM's other mid-size pickup—the Chevrolet Colorado—the 2017 GMC Canyon is responsible for two of the best new trucks under $25,000. The second is simply called the Canyon, without any trim designation, and it also follows the Chevy template by adding the dual back seats to the truck's extended cab, long box base model. The GMC price: $24,105. True, the rear seats for both the Canyon and its Colorado Work Truck counterpart are designed for smaller occupants, but the GM duo has significantly more rear seat legroom than in the Toyota or Nissan rivals. For that matter, the most affordable GM trucks also are more powerful and efficient than their direct Toyota and Nissan competitors.

2017 Toyota Tacoma SR Access Cab
As the best-selling mid-size pickup in the country, the 2017 Toyota Tacoma also makes its contribution to the best new trucks under $25,000. And that's literally a singular contribution, since only one Tacoma trim meets the financial guidelines for today's gallery. The least expensive Tacoma SR access cab—with an extended cab, rear-wheel drive, and 4-cylinder engine—has an MSRP of $24,320. However, that does include a 6-speed automatic transmission and a fairly nice Entune audio system, complete with a 6.1-inch touchscreen, six speakers, an iPod-compatible USB port, and Bluetooth connectivity for voice-controlled hands-free calling and audio streaming. Oh, and that touchscreen also does double duty as a display for the standard rearview camera system.

2017 Toyota Tacoma SR Double Cab
As mentioned, except for the entry-level SR access cab, all other 2017 Toyota Tacoma trims have MSRPs above today's preferred price point. But it wouldn't take much in terms of incentives—or negotiations—to knock the cost of a double cab down from its own starting price of $25,150. Then we could welcome a Tacoma SR pickup to the best new trucks under $25,000 with four doors, seating for five, and much roomier rear accommodations than in extended cab pickups. Also on board are the same powertrain and standard content supplied by the SR access cab, highlighted by a 6-speed automatic transmission, an uplevel Entune audio system, and a 159-horsepower 4-cylinder engine that makes 180 lb.-ft. of torque.

2017 Nissan Frontier S King Cab
The serious budget brand for the best new trucks under $25,000 is Nissan: There are four distinct trims for the 2017 Nissan Frontier on the menu at that cost, beginning with the Frontier S King Cab. Indeed, that unit is the least expensive new pickup in the country, thanks to an MSRP of $18,390. It is a fairly spartan package, though, designed for work and lacking air conditioning, power windows and locks, and an audio system. What the Frontier S does have are standard flip-up rear seats with underseat storage—something missing from the base-level GM trucks. Owners also rely on a 5-speed manual transmission, rear-wheel drive, and a 4-cylinder engine that produces 152 horsepower and 171 lb.-ft. of torque.

2017 Nissan Frontier S Crew Cab
So far, all of the best new trucks under $25,000 have been limited to 4-cylinder engines. That gives another key benefit to the 2017 Nissan Frontier, because the S grade can be ordered with a V6 engine—and a 4-door crew cab body style—at an MSRP of $23,900. Needless to say, opting for the 4.0-liter V6 enables massive output advantages over all 4-cylinder competition: That unit makes 261 horsepower and 281 lb.-ft. of torque, plus it's mated to a standard 5-speed automatic transmission for ease of use. The Frontier's V6 then takes the towing title, backed by a trailering maximum of 6,710 lbs. No 4-cylinder rival comes within a ton and a half of that mark.

2017 Nissan Frontier SV King Cab
The 2017 Nissan Frontier SV King Cab is more typical of our best new trucks under $25,000. The 4-cylinder engine and 5-speed manual remain standard, yet the SV grade further provides the kind of convenience features that retail customers demand. That means not only air conditioning, power locks, and power windows, but also an infotainment system with a 5-inch color screen, Bluetooth for hands-free calling and audio streaming, a text messaging assistant, USB and auxiliary inputs, and SiriusXM satellite radio. Also worth noting is that the SV trim's steering wheel has standard illuminated audio controls and can be adjusted with a tilting column. Standard 16-inch split-spoke aluminum alloy wheels, a chrome rear bumper, and tailgate spoiler create a stylish finishing touch.

2017 Nissan Frontier Desert Runner
Here's the thing: There is another 2017 Nissan Frontier that's strictly eligible for our best new trucks under $25,000 gallery. It's the King Cab SV V6 that opens at $24,620 with the content from the previously mentioned SV trim and the V6 engine from the S Crew Cab. Yet we'll actually wrap up with the Frontier Desert Runner King Cab, with an MSRP of $25,200—leaving it to incentives and/or negotiating tactics to make up the difference. The Desert Runner provides a trail-friendly truck that carries Nissan's powerful V6, Bilstein off-road shock absorbers, 16-inch alloy wheels wrapped in mud-/snow-rated tires, fog lights, and an array of rugged interior and exterior design elements.

I've not posted in a while (by the standards of the past month at least) about it but I am still making some progress on the Chevelle.
Here you can see the pitman arm and the steering shaft as they came out of the car, undercoated, some rust, and greasy. As with everything else, these are going to get cleaned up.
After some quality time with a 1" scraper and the wire brush, they made it to this point. Better, but not ready for paint by any means.
That's better. I used the wire wheel on the bench grinder to clean up the pitman arm and a stripping wheel (die grinder) and some wire brushing to make more progress on the steering shaft (the latter still has a little prep to go as pictured). These are basically a degreasing away from being ready for primer; the steering shaft will be black and the pitman arm will be cast iron color.
Bonus: the wire wheel on the bench grinder makes it very easy to make incredibly satisfying improvements to small parts, in this case the bolts on the firewall which supposedly are rear stops for the hood, but don't seem to actually do anything. These will get painted too, of course.
Next up I'm working on cleaning up the control arms, knuckles/spindles, and the whole of the steering linkage.

Treat the special person in your life to a vegan breakfast in bed.
Breakfast in bed is one of the best ways to show the people you love that you appreciate them. To me, it's right up there with flowers or a freshly run bath. Waking up to a freshly brewed coffee and something to nibble on is a fine way to start the day, and with Mother's Day just a few days away, it's time to start thinking about what you can do for the mummy in your house! If you are the mum, pass this on to the person you want to cook you breakfast!
Vegan Breakfast In Bed Ideas
Since starting to explore a vegan diet, many of my old breakfast staples went out of the window. Sure, I can still have most cereals with vegan milk, or wholemeal toast with vegan marg and yeast extract (a staple in my house), but that's a little boring for breakfast in bed, no?
If you're going to make a vegan breakfast in bed, make it a special one. These seven recipes are perfect to lazily eat in bed as you come around. Pair with a freshly brewed coffee or tea and a glass of fruit juice for the ultimate breakfast in bed experience. Bonus points if you run a hot bath while the breakfast in bed is being consumed! (Seriously though, are Ian and my kids reading this?)
My vegan pancakes
My perfect vegan pancake recipe is understandably top of my list. It's easy to throw together and you can put whatever toppings you want on them! I would love them topped with fresh fruit (blueberries and blood orange is still my favourite) and some grated dark chocolate or a vegan chocolate syrup. For a more savoury flavour, you could try fried mushrooms and vegan sausage/bacon! Or a good vegan bacon and maple syrup.
Vegan smoothies
Smoothies are the breakfasts of the go-getters. They're versatile and nutritious and you could even make them caffeinated! This chocolate peanut butter smoothie looks delicious and would probably love a dash of espresso. If it's cold out, my hot apple pie smoothie is a great way to slowly start the morning.
Tofu scramble
I'm only just getting the hang of tofu scramble and this recipe looks like it's got the gist of it. I don't usually have a hearty breakfast, but on the days where it's required, this tofu scramble full of veggies and flavour is where I'll be headed.
Vegan french toast
A few years ago, I would make french toast every week. When we started cutting down our sugar intake it became less often, and when we started cutting animal products from our diet it became pretty much non-existent. I didn't even notice, because I was so busy exploring new foods. I never would have thought to use banana! My youngest doesn't love banana so the chances of him eating it would be slim, but I bet the rest of us would love to try this.
Overnight oats
Oh my. These Apple Pie overnight oats are as wholesome as they are delicious. I'm always looking for an excuse to get more oats into my diet and this just might be it. The recipe calls for 1 cup of milk (or unspecified type), but I would probably use a little bit more if you're warming up the oats in the morning. From experience, soya; cashew and oat milks all work well in overnight oats.
Chia pudding
Chia pudding is one of those recipes that I've found pretty hard to crack – I never seem to put enough liquid in, or I put in too much… Eating Bird Food explains how to do it properly, while adorning her puddings in my favourite fruit (blueberries) and taking some beautiful foodie shots.
Tomato toast
Tomatoes on toast is one of my go-to healthy breakfasts of late. This open-faced roasted tomato pesto melt takes it to the next level. I'm not even sure if it's technically a breakfast food – at this point I couldn't care less. I want this tomatoey, toasty goodness in my belly for breakfast, lunch and dinner!
What is your favourite vegan breakfast in bed?

Bulacan commemorates the 113th anniversary of the First Philippine Republic
By: PPAO
Thursday, 19 January 2012
CITY OF MALOLOS-Philippine flag adorn the province of Bulacan in preparation for the celebration of the 113th anniversary of the first Philippine Republic to be led by local officials on Monday, January 23 at the historical church of Barasoain.
According to Gov. Wilhelmino M. Sy-Alvarado, he asked municipal and town mayors to set up flags as a reminder that Bulacan is a province of heroes who fought and offered their lives for freedom.
"Kung ang Baguio ay tanyag sa kanilang bulaklak at ang Pampanga naman ay sa kanilang makukulay na parol, nais nating itanghal ang dakilang lalawigan ng Bulacan bilang bayan ng mga bayani at sa makulay at mahalaga nitong bahagi sa kasaysayan ng Pilipinas," said Alvarado.
Meanwhile, Alex Balagtas of the National Historical Institute suggested for the said date to be declared as Republic Day and to further impart the importance of the celebration in schools by including it in their curriculum.
The program will start at exactly 6:30 a.m. in front of the Barasoain Church through arrival of military honors for the Vice President of the Philippines, Hon. Jejomar Binay as guest speaker.
It will be followed by the unveiling of the marker entitled "Gen. Emilio Aguinaldo Y Famy" in his participation as general in many historical events that took place at the Barasoain Church and in the entire province, giving Bulacan a vital role in acquiring Philippine Independence. Afterwards, offering of flowers will take place at his monument.
Alvarado is expected to grace the event together with Vice-Gov. Daniel Fernando, representatives of each district of Bulacan including Hon. Marivic Sy-Alvarado from the first district, Mayor Christian Natividad, Vice Mayor Gilbert Gatchalian, Ma. Serena I. Diokno, head of the National Historical Institute, members of the Sangguniang Panlalawigan and municipal and town mayors.
At the latter part of the event, history books and plaques of recognition will be given to the guest of honor.
Also, the churchyard of Barasoain will be surrounded by exhibits and stalls made of bamboo.
The First Republic of the Philippines which is also the first republic in Asia was founded on January 23, 1899, following the oath-taking of Gen. Emilio Aguinaldo after the Constitution of Malolos was made. ###

Hurricane Season is Here
CHARLESTON, SC (Mon 06/01/09) --
The 2009 hurricane season begins today and runs through the end of November. If you have not already done so, now is the time to review and update your hurricane plan. If you don't have a written plan, it's important you make one.
A written plan brings home just how long preparing a vessel for an approaching storm takes. It will also help you stay on task in the heat of the moment when time is running out. Here are some things you should consider addressing in your plan.
Two more things. First, start early when a hurricane threatens. Once warnings go up, it is typically too late. Keep in mind traffic will be heavy, draw bridges will not open, and interstates may be one-way for evacuation. Second, never stay aboard and ride out the storm. Very few that have done so live to tell about it.

Those camper windows do deform the body, try to make it flat like the frame, I think that's why a lot of the camper companies used the awning type like on the EZ camper.

HTC Announces The One M8 EYE With A 13 MP Camera In India
HTC finally announced the unexpected HTC One (M8 EYE) smartphone for India. The smartphone that was earlier announced for China and comes with one important element that seemed to be nothing but a disappointment on the Original One M8 -- the camera.
The One (M8 EYE) sports a 13 MP sensor that probably made its way from the Desire 816 or the HTC Butterfly 2, that has identical specs, minus the metal body. The 4 MP UltraPixel sensor was the HTC One M8's biggest con and now HTC finally seems to have replaced it. With the EYE out, we wonder whether HTC will discontinue the original One M8 post this as its 4 MP sensor could not even stand a chance against the Desire 816's 13 MP sensor (low light shots were however better on the One M8).
As for the rest of the specifications, they remain similar to the HTC One (M8).
- We get a 5.0 inch 1080p display
- Inside there is a 2.3 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 SoC coupled with 2 GB of RAM and 16 GB of internal memory that is expandable
- In the camera department there is a 13 MP camera on the back with the dual LED flash and the same 5 MP front-facing module on the front
- There are the usual radios inside that include, 4G LTE, WiFi 802.11 a/ac/b/g/n (2.4 and 5GHz) and Bluetooth 4.0
- Powering it all is the same 2600 mAh battery from the One M8
The handset runs Android KitKat version 4.4 along with the Sense 6 UX on top. The HTC One (M8 EYE) will be available in Gunmetal Grey and Glacial Silver and will be priced at Rs 38,900 and should go on sale this week.

Isaiah 53:1-6
Who has believed what we have heard? And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed? 2For he grew up before him like a young plant, and like a root out of dry ground; he had no form or majesty that we should look at him, nothing in his appearance that we should desire him. 3He was despised and rejected by others; a man of suffering and acquainted with infirmity; and as one from whom others hide their faces he was despised, and we held him of no account. 4Surely he has borne our infirmities and carried our diseases; yet we accounted him stricken, struck down by God, and afflicted. 5But he was wounded for our transgressions, crushed for our iniquities; upon him was the punishment that made us whole, and by his bruises we are healed. 6All we like sheep have gone astray; we have all turned to our own way, and the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all.
Matthew 11:2-6
2When John heard in prison what the Messiah was doing, he sent word by his disciples 3and said to him, "Are you the one who is to come, or are we to wait for another?" 4Jesus answered them, "Go and tell John what you hear and see: 5the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the poor have good news brought to them. 6And blessed is anyone who takes no offense at me."
Isaiah 40:28-31
28Have you not known? Have you not heard? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He does not faint or grow weary; his understanding is unsearchable. 29He gives power to the faint, and strengthens the powerless. 30Even youths will faint and be weary, and the young will fall exhausted; 31but those who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength, they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint.
Three Minute Film Summary
Hacksaw Ridge is a film based on the true story of Desmond Doss, a World War II medic, conscientious objector, and recipient of the Congressional Medal of Honor, which he was awarded for saving the lives of over 75 men, one at a time, at the battle known informally as Hacksaw Ridge.
The film opens with scenes of violence, explosions, and the carnage of war. Juxtaposed over top of this, we hear the calm voice of Desmond Doss, quoting the passage from Isaiah 40: The Lord is the everlasting God, who gives power to the faint and strengthens the powerless. Those who wait for the Lord shall mount up with wings like eagles, run and not be wearly, walk and not faint.
Next we are taken back in time, sixteen years prior, where we see Desmond as a child. In one scene, Desmond is fighting with his brother, and hits him over the head with a brick, knocking him unconscious. As Desmond's parents attend to his brother, Desmond gazes fearfully at a painting of the ten commandments in his parents' home, at the sixth commandment: Thou shalt not kill, and a picture of Cain murdering his brother Abel. Although Desmond's brother recovers, this is a formative moment in his life.
Later, when he is a young man, he saves the life of another young man injured in a car accident by using his belt to apply a tourniquet. When he takes the man to the hospital, he meets his future wife, Dorothy, who is a nurse. When the war breaks out, Desmond makes the decision to enlist, even though his religious convictions don't allow him to take the life of another person or even pick up a weapon.
In basic training, he is harassed, mocked, and beaten by his fellow soldiers, while his commanding officers try to force him to quit. Eventually, however, he is allowed to serve as a medic, going into battle unarmed.
The second half of the film centers on the World War II Battle for Okinawa, where Doss and his unit are assigned to climb and capture a steep escarpment known colloquially as Hacksaw Ridge. This proves far more difficult than anticipated, and chaos and casualties ensue. It is here that Doss proves his character, working tirelessly as a medic to help fallen soldiers. When American forces withdraw from the escarpment, Doss stays behind and works through the night, finding one wounded soldier after another, carrying each one to the edge of the cliff, and lowering them down to safety with a rope. Eventually, he himself makes it down and the remaining soldiers learn of his heroism.
The next day, Doss and his unit are ordered to mount a final assault. By now, the soldiers have learned to trust him, and they refuse to go back up without him. But it's Saturday, and Doss is a Seventh Day Adventist. Eventually, he agrees to go, but only after he's had a chance to pray and read his Bible. The final assault is successful, but Doss himself is wounded in the action, and his fellow soldiers rally around him, lowering him down the ridge to safety and even going back to recover the Bible he lost on the battlefield.
As the credits roll, we see footage of the real Desmond Doss, being awarded the medal of honor by Harry Truman, and reflecting back on his experiences, as well as hearing grateful comments from some of the soldiers who had initially harassed him, only to be saved by him in battle.
Climbing the Ridge
There are actually two "ridges" in this film. The obvious one is Hacksaw Ridge, the scene of the battle of the same name. Less obvious is the one earlier in the film–the Blue Ridge mountains in Doss's childhood home of Virginia. Young Doss climbs to the top of a ridge with his brother right before the fight and the accident that changes his life. As a young man, Doss climbs that same ridge with his fiance, Dorothy, and there pledges his love to her. The ridges–both the one at home as well as Hacksaw Ridge, function as metaphors for Doss' struggles and his achievements. It is always in the shadow of a ridge that he experiences self-doubt and tragedy, while at the top of the ridge he experiences moments of transendence. Even though it's not one of our scripture passages today, here it's worth quoting from Psalm 24, which says: "Who shall ascend the hill of the Lord? And who shall stand in his holy place? Those who have clean hands and pure hearts, who do not lift up their souls to what is false, and do not swear deceitfully. They will receive blessing from the Lord, and vindication from the God of their salvation."
Wrestling With A Conscience
Desmond Doss's strong Christian convictions come from his upbringing in the Seventh Day Adventist Church. It's worth noting that our church hosts a Seventh Day Adventist congregation, which worships in our chapel every Saturday morning. I hope you have the chance to meet some of them some day–they are truly our brothers and sisters in Christ. Along with Mennonites, Quakers, Amish, Bretheren, and several other Christian denominations, they believe the sixth commandment (you shall not kill) applies even in war. However, in World War II, many Seventh Day Adventists participated as medics, ambulance drivers, and other non-combatant roles. At one point in the film, Doss says he prefers to think of himself as a "Conscientious Cooperator" who supports the war effort, but cannot personally take the life of another person.
At one point during training, Doss' sergeant tells the other soldiers: "Do not look to him to save you on the battlefield, because he will be wrestling with his conscience." This is ironic, because Doss ends up saving just about everyone the battlefield precisely because he has wrestled with his conscience.
It's something I think we all should do. Even for Doss, it isn't easy. At one point, his fiancee Dorothy asks him, "What do you do when everything you value is under attack? And Doss replies, "I don't know. I don't have answers to questions that big."
There's a scene early in Doss's military training where his convictions are first put to the test:
I appreciate how the film doesn't shy away from the difficulty of this issue. Doss and Smitty, the soldier who was antagonizing him in that scene, eventually become strong friends. And on Hacksaw Ridge, while Doss is saving lives, Smitty watches over him like a "guardian angel" killing plenty of enemy soldiers in order to protect Doss's life as he rescues others. It is Smitty's death that serves as the catylyst for Doss's transforming moment on the ridge at the climax of the film.
Hearing God's Voice
In that critical moment, when his friend is dead and Doss is in despair, he looks to God and says "What do you want of me? I don't understand. I can't hear you. And then in the silence, Doss hears the voice of a wounded soldier calling out for help. This is his moment of clarity. He says, "Alright," stands up, puts his helment back on, and as everyone else retreats, Doss walks confidently back into the battle, beginning the legendary run that will end up saving the lives of 75 men.
Theres a powerful message for us here: God rarely speaks to us as an audible voice from the heavens. If we are truly listening, we are far more likely to hear God's voice in the cries and needs of the hurting people around us. Three times, Jesus told his disciple Peter, "If you love me, Peter, feed my sheep." He also said, "Whatever you do unto the least of these, my brothers and sisters, you have done unto me."
Throughout that climactic scene, Desmond Doss's mantra and prayer to God was this: "Please Lord, help me get just one more."
Desmond Doss, Christ Type
In that last clip, as Desmond's hands become torn and ruined from lowering wounded soldierss with the rope, saving their lives, we are reminded of the hands and Christ, pierced by nails in order to procure our salvation. Make no mistake, Desmond Doss is portrayed in this film as a Christ type. We've had one of those in every movie so far–in our first film the Christ type was an alien, last week it was Kubo, a shamisen weilding Japanese boy. But Desmond Doss is perhaps the clearest example yet, and this time, I believe it's quite intentional.
Early in the film, we see Desmond mocked and beaten by soldiers. We watch as he turns the other cheek. He heals the sick, restores sight to the blind, helps the lame to walk, and brings comfort and good news to the oppressed. He tells his commanding officer that even though he will not fight, he is prepared to give his life for his men. And he does, over and over again. In the Bible, while Jesus is on the cross, a thief acknowledges him as the messiah and asks for forgiveness. Toward the end of the film, there is a scene where the sergeant (who has been rescued by Doss) says "All I saw was a skinny kid. I didn't know who you were. I've never been more wrong about someone in my life. I hope one day you can forgive me."
If you pay attention, there's a really quick baptism scene near the end, but the scene that really drives it home is the final one of the film. Desmond is lowered from Hacksaw Ridge on a stretcher, as if he is being lowered into a grave. Then the camera pans around underneath the stretcher, and as the light shines down on him, it almost appears as if his is being raised up again into the heavens. I'd like to conclude, as this amazing film does, with that powerful scene.

Unchared: Drake's Fotune-Shadow Trailer.
dat will b hela sic if they did made a movie change the title i thaought it was the real thing.
A must have for any PS3 owner.
lol, i dont have this game... Im waiting till the price drops.
I wish everyone could have seen that HD review done by IGN because I think they really tell it how it is... and how it has truly been a shinning point for the PS3. And I for one can't wait for Uncharted 2. I know for a fact, it's going to be Amazing because I think Naughty Dog has shown that they really understand the PS3 and how to use it's power. Not to mention they have made one hell of a game. So if Part2 takes off where Part1 finished then Uncharted 2 is probably going to blow the roof right off the building and be one of those games you just have to own if you own a PS3.
i would like to see, uncharted in 4d, it fits in so well.
what's the fourth dimension?
Progression of time. Here's an ugly video that sort of demonstrates:
http://ps3media.ign.com/ps3... http://ps3media.ign.com/ps3... http://ps3media.ign.com/ps3...
lol nice trailer.
all in game, rendered in real time, ALL PS3. Play beyond baby play beyond ^^
the 4th dimension is time meaning object age in real time the is a youtube video of a tech demo showing true 4d graphics.
Wait, was this suppose to be the big Exclusive new info for a game interview by IGN.com? Next time, they should be more clean on what exactly they will be doing.
and one of the best single player campaigne games i have played in a long time.. and definitely the best looking game i have ever played on a console..
I love this Fvckin' game!!!!!!!!!!!!, I finished it 10x and got 1000 pts. Everybody should play this masterpiece its one of the best game of 2007. What a great start for a francise, i can't wait for Uncharted 2 Jump in Play Beyond
I will always think this game is great. Not many flaws, and truly, its the best looking console game. But graphics don't make a game, and this has the stuff to back it up. Go and get it.

New Volkswagen Up GTI vs Abarth 595
Volkswagen had added some spice to the city car class with the sporty new Up GTI. The car it has to beat is the Abarth 595...
Infotainment systems
Abarth 595
As standard, the 595 has a tiddly 5.0in touchscreen infotainment system with 3.5mm and USB inputs, Bluetooth, a DAB radio and support for a variety of apps. Android Auto and Apple CarPlay are optional, as is a bigger 7.0in screen with sat-nav. We'd recommend this, because the 5.0in unit is low in resolution and its icons are too small. At least it's mounted high up, is pretty responsive and has useful shortcut buttons surrounding it.
Volkswagen Up GTI
To get the best out of the Up GTI's infotainment system, you'll need an Android or Apple smartphone with Volkswagen's Maps+More app. This connects to the car via a USB port behind the dash-top phone cradle and provides sat-nav, music and driving data. The app is responsive and easy to use, but the bigger your phone's screen, the better. The Up GTI also has a screen that controls the DAB radio and other functions, which include Bluetooth.

Reject the MAMFC 2017 Fluke proposal and demand status Quo!
This petition had 4,533 supporters
Support Status Quo for Fluke in 2017!
NOAA Fisheries is prepared to set an 11.30 million pound acceptable biological catch (ABC) for 2017 which represents a 29% reduction from the 2016 ABC. On top of that, NOAA Fisheries believes that recreational fishermen exceeded their recreational harvest limit in 2016 and that the recreational harvest limit in 2017 will need to be reduced by the amount of the overage. The result, the recreational sector is looking at close to a 40% reduction in 2017 which would represent the most restrictive measures in the history of the fishery's management.
Fisherman and coastal communities know that summer flounder is one of the most important fisheries in the mid-Atlantic. Rebuilding efforts increased the stock size to historic levels of abundance in 2007. What NOAA Fisheries has failed to do is update the stock assessment for summer flounder as the stock has expanded north and east. Independent reviews found that there are significant deficiencies of the summer flounder stock assessment and that improvements should be made to the modeling approach. It is expected that those changes could eliminate or lessen the need for quota reductions but NOAA Fisheries has no plans of updating the assessment before approving the 2017 ABC.
We ask to intervene on our behalf and the other 1MM fluke anglers and demand that NOAA Fisheries maintain the current flounder summer ABC at 16.26 million pounds until a benchmark assessment is conducted. Also, ask that NOAA Fisheries assumes that the recreational sector met but did not exceed its recreational harvest limit in 2016. By granting both requests, the result would be status quo in 2017. This is a fair compromise until a new benchmark assessment for summer flounder is conducted.

The Windows Action Center (previously known as Windows Security Center) is a component included with Microsoft's Windows XP (beginning with Service Pack 2), Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8 operating systems that provides users with the ability to view the status of computer security settings and services. Windows Action Center also continually monitors these security settings, and informs the user via a pop-up notification balloon if there is a problem. It is renamed to Action Center in Windows 7, where it covers maintenance as well as security.
The Windows Action Center consists of three major components: A control panel, a Windows Service, and an application programming interface that is provided by Windows Management Instrumentation.
The control panel divides the monitored security settings into categories, the headings of which are displayed with a background color of light blue (green in Vista), yellow, or red. A category with a blue or green background indicates that the settings in the category are "healthy". A yellow background typically indicates that some or all of the settings in that category are not being monitored. A red background indicates that there is a problem that can expose the user's computer to problems.
The current state of these settings is determined by the Windows Service. This service, named "Security Center",[1] is started automatically when the computer starts, and takes responsibility for continually monitoring the system for changes, and also informs the user via a pop-up notification balloon if there is a problem. The settings are made available to the system through a Windows Management Instrumentation provider.
The primary interface which third-party anti-virus, anti-malware and firewall software vendors use to register with Windows Action Center is through the WMI provider. In Windows Vista, some Windows API calls were added to let applications retrieve the aggregate health status of Windows Action Center, and to receive notifications when the health status changes. Microsoft has offered suggestions that these new calls could be used by any application that wants to confirm that the system is in a healthy state before engaging in certain actions. An example they give is that a computer game could ensure that a firewall is running before connecting to a multi-player online game.
Microsoft learned from discussions with customers that there was confusion as to whether users were taking appropriate steps to protect their systems, or if the steps they were taking were effective.[2] From this research, Microsoft made the decision to include a visible control panel with Windows XP Service Pack 2 that would provide a consolidated view of the most important security features. Service Pack 2, released in August 2004, includes the first version of Security Center. This initial version provides monitoring of Windows Update, Windows Firewall, and the availability of an anti-virus software package. Third-party providers of firewall and anti-virus software packages were encouraged to make use of the Windows Action Center application programming interface to ensure that their software would be recognized.
Windows Vista adds anti-malware software detection, monitoring of User Account Control, and monitoring of several Internet Explorer security settings. Windows Defender, Microsoft's anti-malware product, is included with Windows Vista by default, which the Action Center monitors; a third-party anti-malware product can replace it. Another feature of the Windows Vista version is that it includes the ability to display logos of third-party products that have been registered with the Security Center.
Unlike Windows XP, in the beta versions of Windows Vista the Windows Action Center could not be disabled or overridden. Security software maker Symantec spoke out against this, noting that it would cause a great deal of consumer confusion because any security problems would be reported by both Windows Action Center and Symantec's tools at the same time.[3] McAfee, another large security software vendor, lodged similar complaints,[4] and in the end Microsoft allowed Windows Security Center to be disabled in the release version of Vista.[5]
In Windows 7, the Windows Action Center has been renamed the Action Center (Windows Solution Center and Windows Health Center in earlier builds) and encompasses both security and maintenance of the computer. Yellow indicates that there is a message that requires attention. Red indicates that there is an important message for the user to solve.
Action Center has been updated and monitors 10 new items: Microsoft Account, Windows Activation, SmartScreen, Automatic Maintenance, Drive Status, Device Software, Startup Apps, Homegroup, File History, and Storage Spaces.[6]
On 25 August 2004, PC Magazine published an article in their Security Watch newsletter titled "Windows XP SP2 Security Center Spoofing Threat" which outlined a design vulnerability which could allow malware to manipulate Security Center into displaying a false security status regardless of the true security status. To do so, the malware requires Administrative privileges.[7]

When strength counts, you can count on our 3.2mm marine grade stainless steel wire rope!
This 3.2mm stainless steel wire rope is commonly used in constructing balustrade by professional and DYI guys alike. The applications for this versatile rope are endless and include vertical and horizontal balustrade, clothes lines, shade sails, load tie-downs, orchard wires, control cables, struts and luff wires and even trapeze wires!
Designed with a co-efficient of stretch, our wire rope is flexible and easy to work with. It's excellent for use with Thimble and Ferrule fittings and ideal for hydraulically swaged fittings. Our wire ropes are designed and manufactured to achieve optimum balance between fatigue and abrasion resistance, high tensile strength and structural integrity. The special surface treatment applied to this product will make it last and look new for years to come.
The "7x7" in the title description refers to the structure of the wire -- 49 individual strands of wire are twisted into one super strong premium wire rope. More specifically, the rope is constructed from 7 thin wires twisted together in a substrand; 7 of these substrands are then twisted together to form the wire rope. Other common 3.2mm wire constructions include the 1 x 19 which translates to one strand composed of 19 thin wires. This particular rope is not as flexible as the 7 x 7 and is recommended only for hydraulically swaged fittings. The 7 x 19 wire rope product consists of 133 individual wires grouped together as 7 substrands of 19 wires which are then formed into one strand. This commercial strength wire can be used for balustrade but is chiefly used for heavy-duty tasks on cranes and winches where high flexibility and a co-efficient of stretch are essential. Obviously, the more wires which a wire rope is comprised of the more flexible it is.

The firm that owns Toys 'R' Us has behaved like a playground bully in the past few months — pushing analysts to give upbeat valuations of the giant toy retailer it plans to bring public this summer, according to bankers involved in the deal.
Wall Street analysts felt that Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co. — which together with Bain Capital and Vornado Realty took Toys 'R' Us private in 2005 for $7.3 billion — attempted to grill and cajole them about the retailer's stock valuation in an unusual round of meetings this spring, sources said. Bank of America — which was among the top four Wall Street banks selected to underwrite the Toys 'R' Us IPO — opted out of the round of analyst interviews, according to a source familiar with the situation.
While there is no proof that any analyst did, indeed, raise his valuation on Toys 'R' Us amid pressure from KKR, the meetings raise the worry that analysts are again pitching for investment banking business.
Indeed, sources said Bank of America was concerned that the meetings might not comply with a 2003 settlement between the Securities and Exchange Commission and most Wall Street banks. The $1.4 billion settlement established a firewall to prevent analysts from pumping up the stocks of clients of their investment banks.
"It feels like we're right back to where we were before the settlement," Lynn Turner, chief accountant for SEC from 1998 to 2001, said,
Aggressive tactics like those allegedly used by KKR cannot violate the settlement — only those used by investment banks, party to the SEC pact, can. It is incumbent upon the banks not to kowtow to the strong-arm tactics.
Still, "KKR was definitely leading the witness" during one recent discussion with an analyst on Toys 'R' Us, raising "serious questions" at the bank's compliance department, according to a banking source involved in the process.
KKR, Bain Capital and Vornado, the owners of the toy chain, declined comment.
The banks, which last week won the assignment to underwrite the Toys 'R' Us deal — Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan Chase, Bank of America and Credit Suisse — also declined comment.
A source close to KKR said the firm does not pressure analysts.
But as KKR drilled analysts on Toys 'R' Us, "there's no question analysts felt like they were competing for investment-banking business," according to one source close to the process. "I think, in this situation, people stepped over the line."
That's in keeping with KKR's aggressive tactics in other recent IPOs, including hospital chain HCA and retailer Dollar General, sources said. In at least one instance, a KKR executive complained that an analyst's proposed price-to-earnings ratio — a key measure of a stock's performance — was too low for a stock about to be taken public.
Wall Street banks and the SEC went to court to relax terms of the 2003 settlement, but a federal judge in March kept intact the firewall between analysts and investment firstname.lastname@example.com

Nearly 80 percent of Americans are fighting back pain at some point in their lives, and if you spend most of the day sitting, you are at risk. One thing that may help: stretching. "It stretches and strengthens the muscles, reducing pressure on the spine [] discs and joints to relieve and prevent pain," says Kristian Berg, DN, anatomy expert and author of Prescriptive stretching. In fact, research has shown that patients with back pain, stretching as part of their fare better than those based solely on anti-inflammatory medication treatment. Berg suggests making these three sections once a day to prevent or alleviate discomfort. Hold each for 10 seconds, then stretch tense muscles for 5 seconds before releasing another 10 seconds of stretching. (This technique helps tighten the muscles give a deeper stretch.)
Hip Opener
Stretch your hip flexors, ranging from the lower back to the front of the thigh bone. Sit on the edge of a table, bench or bed. Lie on your back and grab your knees; all your lower back should be in contact with the surface. Take the left knee with both hands and extend your right leg to hang freely. Hold for 10 seconds, then stretch tight muscles. Repeat, then switch legs. Do two sets on each side.
Side Stretch
Objectives of a lower back muscle that extends from the top of the hip bone to the lower rib. Lie on the floor on your right side, supporting yourself with your forearm. Bend your left leg and move toward your stomach as far as you can without moving your lower leg. Plant your left foot on the ground. Slowly raise your upper body so that your right arm is straight. Stop when you feel a slight stretch on the right side of his waist. Do two sets on each side.
Stretching a muscle below the hip joint and buttocks. Stand in front of a table or surface that is almost as high as the upper thigh. Raise your right knee and lift your ankle so the entire outer leg is resting on the table. Your leg should form an L shape and be in line with the hip. Arch your lower back and upper body leans forward. Do two sets with each leg.
We're making an attempt laborious to make higher relationships within the world.
But we tend to can't have a go at it without YOU!
Did this feature assist you higher yourself or your relationship?
You can do modification somebody else's life too!
