Here's the link to my condensed review on Amazon.
I never set out to be a rebel.
Well, that's not EXACTLY true. As a matter of fact, once I found out that rebellion was possible, my path has bounced between rebellion and conformity in the same way that a ping-pong ball bounces for Forrest Gump.
Today, I take pride in my identity as a redneck biker, Life Member of the NRA, Southern Man of Scottish Heritage (Campbell Clan, if anybody is interested), born on a dirt road in Macon, GA.
Sounds pretty white and the slightest bit intimidating, don't it?
But I'm married to my gift-from-God, happily-ever-after trophy wife Vanessa, the elegant, foxy, praying black grandmother of Woodstock, GA. And we have CHOSEN to raise our beautiful mulatto grandchildren with the understanding that to a significant segment of the population, the amount of black blood in their veins is going to trump the white amount, and to be proud of who they are. And our social lives center on what is the most racially diverse church we can find. And I babysit my grandchildren every chance I get.
Does that hint that maybe I have rebelled against stereotypes, a little bit?
As soon as I graduated from high school, I moved out of my parents' house, enrolled in a LIBERAL liberal arts college, and spent the next year growing my hair, drinking, joining a fraternity, and scaring people with the amount of drugs I was taking.
After a year of THAT, I joined the Army to become a medic. I did well; got me a medal, a promotion to E-5, and was selected as Soldier of the Year for the United States Army, Europe in 1975.
Got out of the Army, stopped getting hair cuts, went back to college, got divorced, and started riding motorcycles.
The story goes on from there, but the cycles are established, right? Whether I set out to do it or not, there is a lot of rebel in me. I do my best to keep it from harming others; these days, I think it mostly manifests as my absolute refusal to get invested in politics, and my determination to answer a radical call to Christian discipleship.
While carrying a Browning Hi-Power.
All of that is to explain the context of this blog post, which will shortly contain a review of James Snover's latest book, "Polly's Summer Vacation At Excentrifugal Engineering," which you can get by clicking the link at the top of the page.
As I explained yesterday, I'm having some problems in deciding where & how to publish my book reviews. In the past, I write a book review, and then I post a reference link to the review on at least two Facebook pages: my own, and Sarah's Diner, which is a nest of indie writers, along with a few who have contracts with more-or-less (mostly less) traditional publishers. I also write this blog, in which I, Papa Pat, Ramble on about things that are important to me; sometimes, that includes books.
I need both venues. They are NOT identical, and they don't have the same intended audience,>...<
Did he say 'audience?' HA! He has an audience like the construction worker with the singing frog in the Bugs Bunny cartoon.>...< and there are times when I have a blog post which is intensely personal, and has nothing to do with books.
So, here's what I'm going to TRY, and I actually started this yesterday. I'm going to TRY to get my Amazon book reviews to include a reference to my blog, on those occasions when the blog includes review material. It will be easy to include the link to the review in my blog to the Amazon review; I already did that at the top of the page. However, Amazon does NOT permit a link within a review to anything except to another product which may be purchased on Amazon. So, I'm just going to point out that an expanded review is available at Papa Pat Rambles, and not include the url.
In fact, I did a trial run of that last night, and it allowed the review to post. That may change; in fact, change is a guarantee with Amazon reviews, but unless they change the rules, I believe I can get away with this little rebellion.
And now for the actual review of "Polly's Summer Vacation At Excentrifugal Engineering, " by James Snover, 2nd Edition. The Ill-Advised Publishing Company (Kindle Edition).
Polly Madison is a delightfully normal 13 year old genius. She lives on an Earth that has lost its' collective mind, with every sort of political splinter faction running around to do things for the Good Of The People, because they alone know what that Good is.
The WILDEST card in this deck is Rex Mason, the head of Excentrifugal Engineering. He is a certified Mad Scientist, Life Member, with a Challenge Coin, who finds purpose in (umm, what's a good word: periodically? no; too conventional; intermittently? no, that implies a miss every now and then;) SPASMODICALLY saves the world, often by obliterating some part of it.
And Rex has chosen Polly as his very first Summer Intern!
So, she is overjoyed; her parents freak out. She's too YOUNG! She's had too much DISAPPOINTMENT! She's a PARAPLEGIC!
And here, we cross over from the World of Reality into Fantasy Land. In this Fantasy Land, Rex is able to convince her parents that the very things that they are tossing up as obstacles are the reasons he has selected her for the program. Too young? Well, she won't have to unlearn a lot of things, because she is still gulping in great amounts of math and science and engineering. Too much disappointment? She will have no restrictions placed on what she can learn at E E. Paraplegic? That's PERFECT! She has had to adapt and overcome for her entire life, and THAT skill & attitude set is precisely what will make her a super-nova of success!
So why is this Fantasy Land and not World of Reality? I cheated. It's not a fantasy. Polly has real parents, and I've seen this kind, who are not blind to her impairment, and don't permit her to be blind to it as well, but who also love her so much that they never allow the impairment to destroy her spirit.
Yes, these are real people.
If you move in certain Mad Scientist circles, you will see that Polly's teachers and the staff of EE are all tuckerizations of that special crowd. It makes for a nice touch. These are real people, too.
And as to how Polly's summer works out, I cannot tell you without spoilers. I will tell you, however, that it involves a large musical instrument made out of depleted uranium, and the screwdriver blade of a multi-tool. It is not specified whether or not the multitool is a Leatherman, Victorinox, Gerber, or if it's a specialty that includes an AR wrench and EOD tools.
Peace be on your household.

ON AIR - Sooooo 80s
with Ken O'Sullivan
This week, a slightly worn and faded copy of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone is going up for auction - it's expected to make between £20,000 and £30,000, equivelant of about €34,000.
On the Forum Auction's site, the book is described as an "ex-library copy with ink stamp", the spine ends and corners are "bumped", there's chipping to the joints and the laminate is peeling."
The description also includes that the "extremities a little rubbed and chipped" while there's been as "light browning" to the text margins. It's "a very good, bright copy, preserved in a fine example of a later dust-jacket".
So why is it on auction for so much money? According to The Mirror, it's one of only 500 copies of that particular edition printed - the first time the wider world met Harry Potter - and two years ago one sold for more than £60,000.
Out of the 500 copies printed, its believed that about 300 of them went to libraries, so that leaves us wondering, could you perhaps have borrowed a library copy and never brought it back? Or could you have one of the other 200 copies?
Here's how to tell if your copy is worth a pretty penny:
Check out page 53 where "1 wand" appears twice in list of things Harry should bring to Hogwarts.
On the title page, you should check for a print line that reads 1 0 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 and the crediting of "Joanne Rowling", instead of JK.
If you're not lucky enough to have one of these very rare copies of the book, fear not because some other less rare editions of the book are still selling for hundreds, even thousands depending on their condition.
It's definitely worth seeking out your Harry Potter collection and doing some research.

A group led by actor Mark Ruffalo took a bus from City Hall to Pennsylvania today to deliver water to a community they say was affected by the controversial natural gas drilling procedure called hydrofracking. Governor Cuomo and the state Department of Environmental Conservation are currently considering whether to allow hydrofracking in New York.
Mr. Ruffalo, a longtime opponent of the procedure and resident of upstate Sullivan County, told Politicker fracking contaminated the water in Dimock and he thinks it would have similar consequences here. "There's no doubt in my mind, or most people's minds at this point, that the way this industry has been moving forward up until now will contaminate New York State," Mr. Ruffalo said.
Hydrofracking, which is short for hydraulic fracturing, involves extracting gas from underground rock layers by creating fractures with a cocktail of pressurized water and chemicals. Last year, the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection and Ed Rendell, who was the state's governor at the time, determined the water in Dimock was unsafe and said Cabot Oil and Gas, which conducts hydrofracking in the area, would have to pay $12 million for a pipeline to bring drinking water to the area. In the meantime, Cabot was required to deliver water to affected homes.
"On November 30, Cabot Oil and the DEP decided that these folks, for no scientific reason, no longer need this water, so they cut them off," Mr. Ruffalo said. "We're bringing our New York State, pure New York State unfracked drinking water, to the folks in Dimock, P.A., our brothers and sisters, our fellow Americans," Mr. Ruffalo said.
Mr. Ruffalo said the decision to abandon plans for the pipeline and stop water delivery was made after Pennsylvania's newly-elected governor, Tom Corbett, received more than a million dollars in campaign contributions from the energy industry.
"When Corbett came into office, he dropped that plan. He took a $1.6 million, what I'd like to say vig, from the oil and gas industry to stop the $12 million pipeline that Cabot Oil was meant to build," Mr. Ruffalo said.
Before departing on a bus bound for Dimock, Mr. Ruffalo held a press conference on the steps of City Hall where he was joined by activists from several environmental groups and Lance Simmens, a former special assistant to Governor Rendell. Mr. Simmens slammed Governor Corbett's decision to discontinue water delivery and the planned pipeline.
"The current Administration clearly needs to address this deplorable decision," Mr. Simmens said.
The mayor of Binghamton, New York, which is about 30 miles from Dimock, supplied the water for Mr. Ruffalo's mission.
"Binghampton has offered to join in a mutual benefacting relationship with Dimock, P.A. to bring them water every single day at no cost," Mr. Ruffalo said. "The town board of Dimock, P.A. voted three to zero against allowing that to happen after taking a meeting with Cabot Oil. Endemic corruption is happening in Pennsylvania and it needs to be looked into."
As of this writing Cabot Oil and Governor Corbett's office have not responded to Politicker's request for comment on this story.
Though he's concerned about the situation in Pennsylvania, Mr. Ruffalo is optimistic hydrofracking won't come to New York. The Department of Environmental Conservation is currently reviewing whether to allow the procedure here after conducting a series of hearings around the state. Mr. Ruffalo said those hearings went "amazingly well" with opponents of hydrofracking greatly outnumbering those who showed up in support of the procedure.
"It was four-to-one in Binghamton, in Loch Sheldrake it was like eleven-to-one against gas drilling and, here in New York City, it was like 2,000-to-two people," Mr. Ruffalo said. "It sends a very clear message to the Governor where New Yorkers stand on this issue. As people get educated on this, they're turning away from the idea that this is actually good for New York State."

text: This week at aintitcoolnews.com Harry Knowles wrote a post revealing that Walt Disney Pictures may be about to announce that Tron 3 has been given the greenlight. Tron: Legacy has been successful at the box office, though not nearly as successful as Disney were probably hoping, and now that the film is effectively in the black, the company is apparently ready to begin development of the sequel. With a production budget of $170m and a worldwide gross of $300m, it looks on the surface like a no brainer. If, however, you take into consideration the marketing budget, which i would guess must almost equal that of the production, and it does not look quite so financially successful. The movie will make a small profit, particularly with merchandise and DVD/Blu-Ray sales yet to come, but conditions certainly don't look ideal for a follow-up. Continue reading

THE CHURCH: A Ramble About Lost Sheep by Allen Martin Bair
From The Rambles of a Wandering Priest
Some time ago, as I was pulling one-ton pallets though the crowded aisles of the "big box store" I worked at, I got this image in my head from the Lord.
There was a rancher who owned a lot of sheep, and shepherds were hired to watch over different flocks. Some flocks were larger, some were smaller, but all the sheep belonged ultimately to the rancher, not the individual shepherd in charge of them.
Some of the shepherds were doing their job well and faithfully. The sheep were well cared for, and the shepherds had the exhaustion and bags under their eyes to prove it. Other shepherds however were not. Some beat the sheep under their care. Some didn't feed them properly. Others overfed them but then didn't exercise them. Some were abused in other ways, or poisoned because the shepherd didn't seem to know the difference between good feed and bad. Some shepherds were fleecing the sheep far too often, and as such they were sick and ill prepared for the winter.
As a result, some sheep broke from their flocks and stalls and ran for the hills, terrified of the shepherds that were over them. Out in the hills, some of them were able to survive on their own and were doing okay for the most part. Others however got into poisonous plants. Some couldn't traverse the terrain and were injured, many of them quite seriously. Others ate themselves over cliffs, as sheep are quite capable of doing.
And as I saw this in my head, I could sense the concern the Rancher had for his sheep that had fled. I could also sense the anger that he had towards the shepherds in question, to whom he had entrusted his livestock. And I sensed from him that someone needed to go get them and look after them.
I have since wrestled with this question. How? If we were talking literal sheep, one could take a tranquilizer gun and some rope and go collect them. Unfortunately, it's not quite that easy with the Lord's sheep. It would be nice if it was, but it isn't. Often, those who have been hurt or abused tend to run from anyone who looks or smells like a shepherd. And honestly, I would too if I had been abused like that. Come to think of it, I have run once or twice myself.
One thought which has run through my mind lately is that these are the people for whom Jesus targeted his ministry. He didn't target the unbeliever (read Gentile), and he didn't target those who were professedly religious (read Pharisee, Sadducee, Essene, or other). He said instead, "I was not sent except to the lost (literally, ruined) sheep of the house of Israel," (Matthew 15:24), and also, "When Jesus heard it, he said to them, 'Those who are healthy have no need for a physician, but those who are sick do. But you go and learn what this means: "I desire mercy, and not sacrifice," for I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.'" (Matthew 9:12-13)
So what do we do about these brothers and sisters in Christ, many who are baptized, who believe in Jesus Christ, yet do not trust the church or its shepherds? Do we just write them off? Do we let them just go elsewhere? Do we let them fall off of cliffs? After talking with some pastors (several of whom I respect highly), it seems like that is the general attitude. It's their fault for not accepting the authority of the church or the local churches' pastors.
Another thing about these lost sheep, is that many of them seem to be my generation and younger. I was talking to an old friend of mine recently who happens to be a youth pastor. The church he serves at has lost a lot of the people (including myself) who had been in the youth group over a decade ago and now are in their late twenties or early thirties. I could sense from him that he had a real heart for them, but he, too, seems to be at a loss as to how to bring them back into a regular church attendance of some, or any, kind. After putting out an inquiry to various churches in the area, he said that the general response he got was "good luck with that."
These are the people who are most on the heart of Jesus Christ: the members of the family who have somehow been ruined and written off by the church either intentionally or unintentionally. These are the people he went after himself while on Earth, and I believe these are the people we need to go after and take care of. But the question remains, "How?"

The instructor is a certified casting instructor with the Federation of Fly Fishers. They supply rods/reels/lines/flies and you bring waders and the clothes you wear. It is open to all, not just UAA students.
This is a great deal for the money, whatever they're charging. Other classes are on lawns and last one half a day, or two halves over a week-end.
A good number to call is Cathy at 786-4085.

American Shithole #1 — Stephen Miller: Spork Amongst Cutlery
By Eric Wilson
The talking heads are discussing today, with great enthusiasm, if it's Stephen Miller (and not the president) that's running the show on immigration — which should mean we'll have Miller's resignation sometime in the next few months.
I am writing this on a Monday, and if they are still talking about Miller as if he were president when this posts on Thursday, then I predict his departure within a fortnight.
What the hell happened to this guy anyway? By all accounts he had a healthy upbringing, born into a liberal, Jewish family that suffered no serious tragedy or setback during his childhood. He was raised in liberal-leaning Santa Monica, California, where he attended a very progressive high school. Then he attended Duke, but it's not Duke's fault; this guy was clearly a chode from about the 8th grade on — much to the obvious chagrin of his family.
Here is an excerpt from his uncle's statement just days before the 2016 election:
"The Glosser family escaped Europe as dirt poor immigrants, joined the community, built businesses, and honestly sold goods to their fellow Johnstowners," Glosser wrote. "My nephew and I must both reflect long and hard on one awful truth. If in the early 20th century the USA had built a wall against poor desperate ignorant immigrants of a different religion, like the Glossers, all of us would have gone up the crematoria chimneys with the other six million kinsmen whom we can never know."
— David S. Glosser
That's a wicked, extended family burn. No pun intended. His uncle invoked the holocaust on him, and it doesn't get much more brutal in the Jewish community than that. He's certainly no mensch.
It is a remarkable feat to be the "most-despised" member of this administration, but I loathe Stephen Miller on such a visceral, base-level, that my neurons fire erratically as soon as I see his churlish, sourpuss visage. His countenance on television brings about the emotions you might expect when cleaning dog diarrhea.
The face that I imagine would launch a thousand swipes left.
He's not very adept on-camera so far. (His comments on Fox News were used in a lawsuit against Trump's travel ban; he embarrassed himself last summer in a row over the Statue of Liberty.) He's certainly not camera-friendly, although that is due at least in part to his dressing like a former Bond villain that's now selling Amway products. This is not to say he is not achieving his goal of disrupting any kind of sensible immigration policy — he just does so clumsily, and with such bombast that he is hard to take seriously.
Simply put, he's just not that smart.
His appearances in front of the media, most recently on Jake Tapper, come off more like scripted WWF matches, than any kind of sensible presentation on policy. He's certainly not cool under fire (rumors circle as to whether or not Miller had to be escorted from the CNN studio).
Bombastic and blusterous rhetoric may be par for the course in this White House, but he still seems oddly out of place in this administration. It's strange to see him pictured amongst so many multi-millionaires and billionaires. Like a plastic spork amidst the shiny silverware. Scratch that. Like a spork amongst tarnished Trump gold. Scratch that again. Now that I consider the administration's current and former staff (bourbon-soaked dirty gym sock Steve Bannon, one rung above flat-earther Sarah Huckabee Sanders, evil Santa's elf and stoner's Antichrist Jefferson Sessions, etc.) they're all a bunch of dirty sporks.
Miller doesn't have a remarkable physicality about him, either.
If we were playing King of the Hill (a children's game — very Lord of the Flies — from a time whence children played outside with nothing, came home with contusions and fractures and were instructed to "walk it off"), I wouldn't pick Stephen Miller to be standing on the acme of Mt. Not-Librul, with his sandal-clad foot resting confidently atop a heap of would-be competitors. Not in a million years. I would pick Stephen Miller to be face down in dogshit at the base of the incline, depantsed, with his tighty-whities up over his head.
There's just nothing particularly impressive about Miller.
And yet, here he is, a survivor where so many before him have fallen out of favor. Quietly (mostly) furthering his own racist agenda from behind the scenes.
Maybe that's why he's still around. He never puts himself center-stage without heaping generous amounts of adoration on his master (it is long known that the way to get through to Trump is to placate his ego; like so many men, unfortunately). Unlike Bannon and the rest of the discarded, Miller never challenges the president — and he would never take credit for anything over Trump. Thankfully, it looks like the press is doing that for him.
This is a good thing, as I am inclined to believe it was Stephen Miller that three times has derailed what should have been a congressional and presidential no-brainer resolution on DACA.
So it's Thursday, is Miller still in the news? I doubt it. I would not be surprised if we were already far beyond the government shutdown this past weekend, having moved on to one or two subsequent horrors (firing McCabe?). Still, if so, if we're still talking about Miller 72 hours later, that's bad news for America's answer to Goebbels.
Good news for the rest of us.

In the sketch, a pair of music industry executives (played by Fred Armisen and Carrie Brownstein, natch) sit El-P and Killer Mike down to discuss ideas for their next album rollout (including a surprise album drop). Other potential strategies include faking El-P's death, sending a baby down a well, and more. Watch the skit below.
RTJ3 is the follow-up to RTJ2, Pitchfork's number one album of 2014. The North American physical release for RTJ3 is still set for January 13, with the international physical release set for January 20. In 2017, Run the Jewels will embark on the "Run the World" tour.

The Athletic Program
As recounted in Chapter III, the Wake Forest athletic program was
sharply curtailed during World War II, with football the only
intercollegiate sport to be fielded throughout the period of hostilities.
Coaches D. C. "Peahead" Walker and Murray Greason joined their
efforts to keep that sport alive, with rather remarkable results.
Basketball was resumed somewhat tentatively in 1944-45 and more
seriously the next year, with Greason as coach. He also resurrected
baseball in the spring of 1946, with twelve games scheduled against
Big Four rivals Duke, State, and Carolina. In time Wake Forest
developed a more comprehensive athletic program than it had ever
had before, fielding teams not only in golf, tennis, and track but in
swimming and wrestling as well. Conference regulations also dictated
the formation of freshman teams, with notable successes in football
and basketball.
It cannot be said that in the late forties or during the Tribble years,
Wake Forest became an athletic power. It did, indeed, establish a golf
dynasty that could compete successfully at the national level, in large
part through the play of Arnold Palmer as a student and his generous
support of the Wake Forest program in his professional years. There
were high moments in football, basketball, and baseball, with some
truly excellent athletes who won national and All-American honors.
As football floundered under a rapid succession of head coaches,
basketball prospered under Greason and several brilliant successors
and produced winning combinations more consistently. Over the span
of the years, Wake Forest was often a contender in all of its sports
programs but seemed destined usually to be an also-ran.

How To Care For Canines After Spaying Surgical procedure
There are a number of things to contemplate when bringing a brand new canine house and I am here to let you know a few method you can also make adjusting simpler. Homelessness is a big downside on this country. The middle class is rapidly shrinking in addition to the American dream of proudly owning a home. Great lens! When you're eager to play AAA titles or are utilizing an older CPU, then a graphics card is an efficient way to go. Preserve that in mind so you aren't getting discouraged. Lots of people really feel that if they can just prove to the physician they are actually suffering and it isn't just of their head that the medical doctors will have the ability to give them a magic tablet.
Tomorrow we get to hear from Cate and it is a good one, (as at all times)! Thank you a lot for stopping by! An area glazier gave me a really cheap quote that he promised to honor at a later date, since I needed to wait until I knew the buyer was prepared to maneuver ahead. After all I obtained that in writing. Not too long ago we saw a screech owl flying around outdoors after the sun set, and my wife stated it will be excellent for a haunted home. So I'd play screech owl sounds.
What an awesome lens, a really touching and eye opening read. It could be fascinating to see how folks in a financially better situation would cope if they were homeless, would they've the same opinions? Typically no matter how hard we try life throws us a nasty hand, so long as you stay constructive and preserve getting again up then your a winner. I hope it helps to make individuals perceive a bit extra about being homeless. Very good lens.

@virginvingler asked us to recount our most embarrassing moment and he delivered. definitely set the bar high lol.
A little background first. I'm a Tejano born and raised, growing up my dad tried... I mean tried...to teach me and my sisters Spanish, but growing up in Houston it was not a necessity. I took it in high school for a semester and basically learned how to say hello and how are you...pretty much slept through the rest of it. 11years ago I met my wife and daughter and father-in-law. They were here illegally but when you're in love who cares amirite? long story short they spoke only Spanish I didn't. I spoke only English they didn't. One day when my wife was pregnant with our son, my daughter and suegro (father in law) were sitting at the kitchen table. Now I should say that I used to carry three Spanish-English dictionaries and one Spanish verb dictionary. needless to say just saying something simple was a job!! on this particular day I was feeling pretty confident in my newly acquired linguistic ability and decided to converse sans books... it was morning so I wanted to use my new word I learned for breakfast. I wanted to say yo quiero comer desayuno which means I want to eat breakfast. i messed up and said yo quiero comer desnudo which means...I want to eat naked. I had no idea why everybody was looking at me and I swear I could almost hear my son tell me telepathically... Really, dad? really? my wife just came up to me and said "I don't think so." it goes without saying I relied on those books for a while longer...plus my dad was really enjoying watching me struggle lol. he made sure to remind me that he tried...really tried...to teach me.

How to have a flawless student move
Moving as a student can be a flawless experience. Here are a few ways to ensure your move goes without a hitch.
- Early packing: The importance of packing early cannot be over-emphasized. By packing early, you take care of one of the most demanding aspects of moving. Pack away what you do not need to use soon, even two to three weeks before your move.
- Consider moving in early: Find out from your university how early you can move into the dorms. Moving in early will save you the hassle of moving in at the same time with everyone else. It will also give you adequate time to settle in and acclimatize to your new environment.
- Get moving help: This can be in the form of friends and family, or hiring a professional moving company. Remember, moving is a very involving process which you cannot hope to achieve by yourself.
Why you should hire a professional mover for your student move
Hiring a professional mover for your student move could seem like a farfetched notion to many. However, moving is a process best left to the experts. Here are a few reasons why you should hire a professional mover.
- Peace of mind: One of the top reasons you need the services of a professional mover is to afford you peace of mind. Professional movers are experienced in all the ins and outs of moving. Additionally, they know how to handle your items therefore you can rest assured that everything is in safe hands.
- Professional inventory: Professional moving companies will take over the tedious task of making an inventory of your items. They will also ensure that every single item is accounted for once you arrive at your destination.
- No hassle: Packing with friends and family may involve hassles such as arranging for food, picking and dropping off some of them and so on. Professional companies on the other hand arrive and handle all your moving details without expecting much from you.
A-1 Auto Transport can help you move your household goods nationwide. Call 888-509-3213 to get a free, no obligation to buy price quote on interstate moving services.
Tips to finding the best university mover
- Research the movers' reputation: There are various ways to do this. First you could begin by asking friends and family as well as relevant local authorities in moving such as real estate agents. Secondly, use the internet to find customer reviews and professional bodies' accreditation of the said moving companies.
- Research movers' legal status: Trustworthy movers are licensed by the US Department of Transportation. You can find out if their license is valid by checking their unique USDOT number in the licensing authority's database.
- Trust your gut: Sometimes, your gut feeling about a certain company is right. Trust your instincts about a moving company and choose to hire them or not based on what your gut is telling you.

Martinez v. Asplundh Tree Expert Co.
Two recently enacted statutes relating to damages - W. Va. Code 55-7-29 and 55-7E-3 - are remedial and apply in a trial conducted after the effective date of the statutes when the underlying facts in the case occurred prior to that effective date. After he was discharged from employment, Plaintiff filed a complaint against his former employer under the West Virginia Human Rights Act claiming that he was unlawfully discriminated against on the basis of race, national origin and/or ancestry. Defendant removed the case to federal district court on the basis of diversity. The district court then certified questions to the Supreme Court regarding the two statutes at issue. The Supreme Court answered the two certified questions in the affirmative and dismissed the matter from the docket of the court. View "Martinez v. Asplundh Tree Expert Co." on Justia Law

One thing I can share with you about exercising today is that we are not all created to do the same type of work out.
Fad exercises are just as insane as fad diets. And I, my friends, have fell into fad exercises time and time again. When I started regularly exercising around age 19 I loved the weight room. I did stair climbers, elliptical, and some lifting. In college I shifted to running and it was my favorite thing to do in the world because I could experience runner's high and leave the world for a little while. One time I was running in Greensboro, NC and seriously had no clue how I had gone so far (and wound up in a neighborhood I didn't know at all because my mind was just free to be!) After I had my first child I got into the Zumba rage and was doing it up to four times a week. Then I transitioned back to weights and running.
Different types of exercise are considered "trendy" at different times. I remember when running was nothing spectacular. Now there are stores solely devoted to it. There are clothing lines that are built around it.
Zumba was probably the trendiest little work out I ever did. It was fun in that – I'm too old for the club but love to dance – kind of way. Unfortunately, zumba is not something I really care for anymore. It was a fun way to get back into fitness but there are a couple things I dislike that zumba is all about choreography and choreography. Yeah no not this girl.
Pilates/Yoga aren't trendy but trendy styles of them show up from time to time. Hot yoga, cold yoga, dark yoga, dog yoga, goat yoga, naked yoga, dance yoga (what the what?)
We can go on and on but let's move this post forward.
Through trying different methods of exercise I have been able to identify exactly what I want, need, and like in a work out. I know I do not care to feel like I'm dancing. I like my movements to be methodical and intentional and a challenge.
Dance based exercise does not work for me. And I hate choreography. I suck at choreography. Did I mention that?
I also need high intensity interval training. Tabata has been the best thing to happen to me in ages as far as work outs go. I like pushing myself to the max for 30, 60, or 90 seconds – feeling like I cannot go on any more, and then doing it all over again for a optimal thirty minute work out.
A recipe for a good workout for me is:
Sweat, lots of it
Force, make those muscles shake
Challenge, nothing is easy that works
I challenge you to identify your workout preference. If you walk then that's great but maybe you need to do more for yourself. If you're under 85 I suggest you do more than walk. But hey that's me and I share classes with a 70 year old who runs 10 miles a day, lifts, and cycles. If you jog maybe it's time to add a sprint. Lifting can be really fun and totally necessary ladies! Our bones begin deterioration in mid life and lifting can help make them stronger.
I also challenge you to step out of your box. I had said a few years ago I would never cycle. I hate bikes. I hate the seat and the idea of pedaling. It "bored me." Then a few weeks ago my friend Elizabeth expressed interest in a cycle class. I had told her, "I don't do bikes." But she was in that fresh and ready to go work out zone and I didn't want to stifle her so I said, let's do it.
I took one class and was hooked. I still hate the bike, the seat, the whole freaking thing but when I'm pushing that heavy load up the hill I feel like a million (dying) dollars and it makes it worth it.
My goal with this post today is to challenge you to find your exercise match. Find your passion that makes you want to be healthier inside and out. An exercise that challenges your mind and body and gives you what you need – the feeling of accomplishment.
My Current Work Out Schedule
Mondays – running/elliptical
Wednesdays – Les Mills Combat (I suck at it but its fun – its a mix of martial arts so there is some choreography thus making me suck at it)
Thursdays – Les Mills Sprint (HIIT Cycle)
Saturdays – running/elliptical
Days off: Tuesday, Friday, and Sunday
Be inspired – get sweaty!

Season three has been a roller coaster ride of emotions, from Laura Bingham to Travis Merrigan and everything in between. Of course, Hayden, Cody, and Nicole have to answer for the questions that Hayden has been pushing for the listeners to send in all season, and they come together to do just that in the final episode of season three - the Q&A.
Hayden reads questions from Chris Williams, Pete James, Jan, Lakshmi Prahlad, Tom Griffiths, Billy Chavez, Mike Cowl, and Nikola Nováková. The team answers questions about overcoming a lack of social skills, finding a way to collect and organize your travel bucket list and online content, and whether or not travelers should be going off the beaten path when in an untouched environment. They also talk about finding things you never knew you were looking for through travel and how to travel on your own. Cody answers a question specifically about composition, and the whole team answers questions about their favorite music to listen to while traveling.
The team is excited for the upcoming season four and all of the new aspects that are coming with it, including a weekly email and weekly Facebook live videos. Thank you for sharing season three with the time, and enjoy season four when it comes!

Dear Lord Jesus, I pray tonight on this lonely winter night, for the betterment of my soul and for the unfailing strength to bear whatever is to come. I believe fervently that everything happens for a reason and I am asking you to help me when I feel weak. I will always fight the good fight and never give up. There are times however, especially at nighttime that weakness sets in and I need to be carried along this journey. I thank you for all the blessings that you have given me, blessings that I take for granted sometimes. I even thank you for my weakness, for in weakness I am realizing just how strong I really am. I thank you lord for the blessings that have happened and will happen in days to come. In my suffering I have grown spirtiually and I have grown closer to you. I know I will be ok as long as I continue to walk with you. I humbly ask you to watch over my family and friends as well. Hearts have been broken, dreams shattered, but yet in the midst of all the turmoil I know your there and I know you are in control come what may. It is your will. I ask this through your name, amen
Return to Prayers for Strength and Guidance

Facilitated OPENLAB with Emma Zangs
Facilitated OPENLAB with Emma Zangs
19 January 2018
Theme: Bodies & Machines
Research Studio | 10am-1pm | £7 suggested donation
In an age where Big Data and AI are invading our personal space and our bodies, is there any data left that we own? Is our body the last place that is truly ours? Or, do we need to surrender that we do not own our body anymore?
After having diagnosed by Diabetes type1 six years ago, choreographer and movement coach Emma Zangs uses two devices that gather data constantly to monitor her health. During the OPENLAB she will explore what it means to track our bodies data, device vs intuition, listening, measuring, tracking for what?
She's interested in exploring the following questions:
- How are we perceiving our bodies pre-tracking and post-tracking?
- Is data analysis subjective?
- Can tracking our personal data help us or restrict us?
- What dance, performance has to do with it?
Sessions are open to any performers: dancers, musicians, actors and anyone interested in presence and awareness in performance.
Sessions can be facilitated by any participant of OPENLAB. If you'd like to facilitate one of these sessions in the future send an email to Antonio de la Fe: firstname.lastname@example.com

The Alleluia Verse And The Hearing Of The Holy Gospel
A question was recently asked about the Alleluia Verse that precedes the gospel, noting that the words on our insert don't always match the words intoned by our Cantors; and I am always glad to discuss such questions since they are at the heart of our faith.
As for the technical answer I believe that the composer of the melodies used a slightly different text. This is not unusual since there are often multiple, but similar texts for liturgical elements. Uniformity is always best, and we will always strive for that; as well as for clear understanding.
But I would also like to say a few words about the Alleluia Verse which is ancient! Perhaps dating back to the apostolic church itself. To think that the church's liturgy can be so consistent for so long should cause one to praise God in glorious wonder! That is not the work of man, but of the Spirit of God, and places us squarely within the train of the saints of old.
The purpose of the Alleluia Verse is to introduce, anticipate, elevate and glorify the reading of the Holy Gospel. In the past the Gradual was used for the same purpose but, over time and usage, these things do change. (Keep that in mind for upcoming discussions on the subject of worship.) To appreciate this we must understand that the reading of the Holy Gospel is the high point of the first part of Divine Service, called "the Liturgy of the Word." There is, in other words, a good reason that we rise up to hear it!
The reading of the Gospel is not merely the imparting of information but is, in fact, the very presence of Jesus among his people. As he is Really Present in the Bread and Wine of Holy Communion, so he is in this hearing. The celebrant may be reading or chanting the words, but it is Jesus himself speaking to his people. It is the fulfillment of his promise: wherever two or three age gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them. (Matthew 18:20) And of his promise, "I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you. (John 14:18). This reading is a joyous meeting with Christ in which he fills us with power, life and sanctification.
St. Ignatius of Antioch (115 AD) writes in his first letter to the Magnesians (2:2) "I flee to the Gospel as to the Body of Christ." In other words, he recognized the real presence of Christ in the reading of the Holy Gospel.
This being the case the Gospel is preceded by the Alleluia Verse. Whereas much liturgical verse is a happy wedding of melody and words, the Alleluia Verse stresses the melody, as you can tell from the range of notes that our Cantors use. Such music is employed by the church for the precise purpose of expressing the transcendent nature of holy worship. It is meant to emphasize the emotional experience; something with which Lutherans are not always comfortable, but is none the less a vital expression of the worship of the True God.
The word Alleluia means: Praise the Lord, but in saying this the meaning is not exhausted. For the word itself is a transport of joy and praise which precedes the appearance of the Lord among his people (as are Holy, Blessed and Hosanna before the Eucharist). It is a reaction to his coming and serves as a greeting in the most profound sense of the word, and a confirmation of our faith in these holy words. Words in which the Groom expresses his love to the ears of his redeemed Bride (Ephesians 5:25 ff) in anticipation of the holy communion which is yet to come.
More could be said, but let this suffice for now.

English Cheddar and Joe Strummer
Haven't visited the British Isles? Neither have I, but a bite of Montgomery's Cheddar offers a glimpse. This English cheddar is dry, structured and possesses an old-world earthiness. Nothing like the bright, fresh, and nutty earthy notes found in alpage cheeses. It's that barnyard, cave-y, damp, gamey, hobbit hole kind of earthy. A quality that evokes images of the British countryside, giving me a sehnsucht to travel to that soggy field full of cows with the farmer in muddy Wellies and tweed jacket.
I get excited every time a new wheel of English Cheddar arrives at our store. Batches can vary widely, more than most cheese that we see. The earthiness is the backbone of this British Cheddar. But a range of tannic, cave-y funk, pineapple-y sweet and grassy notes will bring you a different adventure in flavors every time. If English Cheddar were an album it would be The Clash's "London Calling". It proclaims its English heritage from the start with London Calling, gets dank and grungy with Guns of Brixton, becomes a little tropic and fruity like the reggae in Revolution Rock, and surprises you with a long finish as if it were the bonus track Train in Vain.
Stop in this weekend and at our counter you'll find Montgomery's and Keen's Cheddar, and Lincolnshire Poacher (somewhat of a divergence from true cheddar). Not only do these cheeses have distinct flavor profiles, if you stop in our store 6 months from now and try another Montgomery's Cheddar, that batch could be singing a different tune. This weekend cheddar might be all Rudie Can't Fail, but don't be surprised when the cheddar you pick up in a few months is more Lost in the Supermarket. Whatever the flavor or tune it's bound to be a good experience!

These posts are summaries of the messages on Sunday and are put here mainly for the benefit of our regulars who either missed the service, or would appreciate the chance to review the big ideas.
'Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.'
Matthew 5.8
Maybe this is the most important of all the beatitudes. It speaks into the two greatest themes of the Bible: holiness, and the knowledge of God. But it's also the most difficult beatitude. What does Jesus mean, '…they shall see God'? We're going to start here and work backwards.
What is seeing God? What is Jesus promising here?
First, there are exceptional examples in the Old Testament that Jesus must have had in mind. Jacob, that great trickster, met with God on two vitally important occasions, once when fleeing from Esau, and the next time on his way back (Genesis 28 and 32). Moses met with God often, but two occasions stand out in his life; once at his commissioning when he sees the bush burning but not being consumed, and later when God says he can see his back but not his face (Exodus 3 and 33-34). And Isaiah has a profound encounter with God that frightens the living daylights out of him, but also proves a pivotal moment in his extraordinary ministry (Isaiah 6).
Are we, as Christians, meant to expect or hope to have such experiences of God? The obvious answer is 'no'; these were exceptional even in Bible times! But there's also a reason to say 'yes'. When Jesus said that John the Baptist was the greatest man to have been born, but that 'the one who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he' (Matthew 11.11), I understand him to mean that the weakest, most unimpressive Christian living on this side of the cross is more privileged than anyone before Jesus, including Jacob, Moses, and Isaiah.
And if as Christians we are more privileged than Jacob, Moses, and Isaiah, there's a sense in which even their experiences of the Living God don't compare with the reality of knowing Jesus. They were experiencing a foretaste, we get the reality. This is true in one way in particular…
Second, these encounters were transformational. When Jacob, Moses, and Isaiah saw God they were radically changed by their experiences. Jacob was left lame. Moses was recommissioned (at the age of 80!) to do the thing he was born for. Isaiah entered a prophetic calling in which he saw more clearly than anyone before him the meaning and character of the ministry of the coming Messiah. And yet, and yet, the most immature baby Christian gets all of this in abundance the moment they come to faith! Like Jacob, their old life is killed and they are humbled to the ground through their experience of wrestling with God in repentance. Like Moses, their life is commissioned with a call no less significant than the Exodus: the call to rescue people from hell by proclaiming the gospel of Jesus. And like Isaiah, they have revelation and insight into the realities of Jesus, except with even more understanding and clarity than he ever enjoyed! So here's my conclusion: everyone who has come to faith in Jesus has seen God in a way that eclipses even these experiences of these great men.
Third, a Christian has a future/present understanding of what it means to see God. We know that when we see Jesus 'as he is' (i.e. a completely unfiltered view) we'll be transformed to become like him (1 John 3.2). No more sin, no more grief, no more self-loathing, no more selfishness at all. But what we'll experience then in full we experience now to a lesser degree. Christians change because they're looking at Jesus.
'And we all, with unveiled face, beholding the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another' (2 Corinthians 3.18).
This is what Jesus is talking about. Seeing God is the transformation that takes place as we grow in the knowledge of Jesus, an experience that will be complete when we get to see him face-to-face.
But look again at the beatitude; 'Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.' It hits us with this amazing paradox. Is it the holy who get to see God? Or does seeing God make us holy? The only answer I am satisfied with is both.
Psalm 24.3-5 hits this balance so perfectly:
'Who shall ascend the hill of the LORD?
And who shall stand in his holy place?
He who has clean hands and a pure heart,
who does not lift up his soul to what is false
and does not swear deceitfully.
He will receive blessing from the LORD
and righteousness from the God of his salvation.'
Look carefully at how David puts it. He asks, 'Who gets to approach God and stand before him', and answers, 'Holy people'. But then he says, 'He will receive… righteousness from the God of his salvation.' So, it's only as we're made holy that we get to approach God and see him, but it's only in seeing him that we're made holy!
What, then, does Jesus mean when he talks about having pure hearts?
1. Sincere hearts
This purity of heart means sincerity, an absence of hypocrisy.
Now, it's so important to understand that it doesn't mean perfection. The Bible tells us that if anyone claims he's without sin, he's a liar, and the truth isn't in him (1 John 1.8). So, this sincerity, this absence of hypocrisy, does not mean perfection.
Instead, it means that the holiness you're seeking to live out is a holiness that springs from the heart and not a mere outward show. Jesus called the Pharisees 'white-washed graves' (Matthew 23.27) because while their actions seemed to show a real devotion to holiness, their hearts were full of death. But a pure heart is a heart that sees its faults and seeks to live in repentance.
AW Pink put it like this: 'Ah, Christian reader, the truth is, one of the most conclusive evidences that we do possess a pure heart is to be conscious and burdened with the impurity which still indwells us.'
2. Unpolluted hearts
Thinking back to Psalm 24 where David asks, 'Who shall ascend the hill of the LORD?' his answer is, 'He who has clean hands and a pure heart, who does not lift up his soul to what is false…' He's talking about idolatry. The people who get to approach God don't worship idols.
Jesus sees things the same way. A little later in the Sermon on the Mount he says, 'The eye is the lamp of the body. So, if your eye is healthy, your whole body will be full of light, but if your eye is bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light in you is darkness, how great is the darkness!' (Matthew 6.22-23). The verses before and after this are all about how we view money, and he is as explicit as possible when he says, in essence, you can either worship God or you can worship money. Money is an idol. If it fills your eyes, your life will be full of darkness.
So, here's how I understand what Jesus means in a more general sense. The thing that fills your vision is your idol. Whatever it is in life that you are living for, that is your god. And if that happens to be a created thing, your whole life will be full of darkness; you only have light in the soul when it's Jesus who fills your vision.
Paul takes up this teaching and twice calls covetousness 'idolatry' (Ephesians 5.5 and Colossians 3.5).
Here's the meaning for us: while we may not immediately identify with the problem of idolatry when we read Psalm 24 (few of us pray to blocks of wood), we soon realise that we can be every bit as guilty of it when we see that idolatry isn't just bowing to some carved thing in the corner of your room; it's putting anything before God!
Whatever you most desire, that's your idol. Whatever you most fear losing, that's your idol. Whatever you think you can't live without, that's your idol. Whatever you daydream about, that's your idol.
When Jesus said, 'Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God,' he was calling us, in effect, to have clear sight. What are you looking at? Thinking about? Consumed with? If it's not God, you're an idolater.
3. Focussed hearts
Look again at those verses from Matthew 6: 'If your eye is healthy, your whole body will be full of light…' The word 'healthy' is literally 'single'. It means that your eyes are fixed on one thing. Your life isn't divided or pulled in lots of directions.
'Teach me your way, O Lord, that I may walk in your truth, unite my heart to fear your name' (Psalm 86.11). This is holiness, this is purity of heart; having a united heart that doesn't get drawn to the right or to the left, but is wholly fixed on Jesus.
Christians should be simple people. I don't mean stupid. I mean simple as in 'free of complications and divisions'. Your heart is pure when it is fixed on Jesus. That is a simple devotion.
So perhaps we could paraphrase the beatitude like this: 'Blessed are those who look at me, for they shall see me'.

Today's adventure was a trip through half of the canal. We started out in Gamboa and ended up in the Pacific. We learned a lot about the canal and Panama's future plans for the canal.
They are building a new canal that can accommodate larger boats. This canal will parallel the original canal. Below is a pic of some large equipment working on this new construction. They plan to have the new canal finished in 2014, 100 years after the original canal.
Here are some pix of the first
They use these vehicles on tracks to help move large ships through the locks.
This is the final locks we passed through. The birds in the air have learned that when the fresh water spills out into the salt water the fish all die and then they can just scoop them up.
This is a view of the locks as we head out into the Pacific.
This ship is used to dredge the banks in preparation for the new canal.
This is a picture of the "Bridge of the Americas". Apparently this road can take one all the way to Alaska.

Meow. The food bank needs your help | Home Again
My cat Mocha and I sometimes have lengthy conversations. She appears before me, looks up with her blue Siamese eyes and says, "Meow."
Sometimes I say, "What do you want?" and she takes me directly to the kitchen – as any self-respecting home-ruling animal will do.
Our actual conversations, though, are different from any I ever experienced with my beloved orange boy Ben. He wasn't much into talking.
If food isn't what she has in mind, Mocha sits down in front of me and says "meow" again, and I respond with my own "meow." Then she responds, "meow," and I respond and she responds and … well, you get the monotonous picture.
We extended one conversation to 10 "meows" each, which I told her showed great cat intelligence.
Mocha gave me a withering look and yawned. Oh, my. What I thought was her half of the conversation? Probably her every "Meow" translated from Siamese into some English word like "Blah," when I thought every "Meow" was a sort of abbreviation for concern about global warming or saving whales.
Mocha's expression told me she thought I was demonstrating the opposite of great human intelligence. Honestly, we don't have many of those long conversations anymore, and that's OK.
I don't know why I'm telling you this, as repeatedly meowing back at a cat doesn't reflect well on me. Also, unless you are a cat person, it's likely you aren't interested anyway.
But speaking of cats?
The Edmonds Food Bank, located at Edmonds United Methodist Church on Caspers Street, is low on cat food. Yes, the food bank provides pet food to pet owners who rely on the food bank to help feed their families.
Sometimes (now!) the supply of cat food runs low. So if you feel called to help someone feed a beloved pet, I hope you'll donate a bag of cat food to the Edmonds Food Bank. (I'll let you know when there's a shortage of dog food.)
I've heard it said that people who go to food banks have no business owning pets. Here's the thing: Only each person turning to the food bank for assistance knows the circumstances bringing that person through the door. That's it.
And if you've never needed to walk through that door for the first time and ask for help, you can't know how hard it is. There's no room for judging at the food bank. As to pet ownership? If a family in financial distress has a pet, everybody in the home benefits from the devotion and companionship of that animal, quite likely acquired when circumstances were better.
I can't imagine anybody having to give up a pet for lack of food.
While I'm thinking about the Edmonds Food Bank, I'll mention the cheerful and dedicated men who faithfully volunteer early every Monday morning to sort bags. These diligent men organize hundreds of donated bags, so workers can easily pick up a stack just the right size for apples, onions, potatoes – even Meow Mix!
Women sometimes sort bags, too, and their work is appreciated; however, it was only the men who asked me today (again!) when they would appear in my column. So, guys, finally, you're in my column. I appreciate you. Truly.
Everybody at the Edmonds Food Bank appreciates you. I think that must be enough. Perhaps now you'll quit hiding my car keys.
