Ortlieb Bike Packer Classic Panniers
- Features Found in the Bike Packer Classic Panniers include . . . fittings for included shoulder straps, styling that matches the Ortlieb Ultimate 6 Classic Handlebar Bags, and scuff guards on the bottom of the packs.
- Each pannier has an internal pocket hanging from the inside of the back panel — nice!
- Ortlieb Bike Packer Classic features include vertical compression straps, lid closure, shoulder straps, scuff guards on the bottom of the packs, dustproof drawstring closures, highly reflective patch on front and back.
- If Ortlieb Packer Plus series panniers are simply out of your budget, then the Ortlieb Classic series panniers are the way to go. You can spend less, and still have top quality panniers that will stand up to many years of serious bicycle touring!
- Ortlieb Plus and Classic Series panniers utilize the new QL2.1 Quick Lock mounting system, adjustable without any tools, with automatic opening and closing by lifting the handle. The QL2.1 system comes with 16mm wide top hooks, and adjusts with 8mm, 10mm, and 12mm hook inserts to help you fit various rack top-rail diameters. Adjustable width hooks at the base of the panniers keep the bottom mounted securely to the side of the rack. The sliding top hooks can be repositioned to allow precise placement on the rack top rails. This can also help move the panniers toward the rear of your rack, providing heel clearance while riding. Optional extra top hooks can be added to reinforce the mounting system when you take your panniers off-road. Optional 20mm QL-2.1 Top-Hooks are available for over-sized rack top-rails.
- These panniers will hold a lot of gear. I have filled other panniers with higher rated capacity, and then transferred everything to Ortlieb panniers – meaning that you may not be able to trust rated capacity, or it could be that panniers with lots of pockets are inefficient to fill — so many corners. All I can tell you for sure is that I have trouble imagining that you will need larger panniers than Ortlieb panniers, even for the longest tours, especially if you plan on using a handlebar bag and a dry-bag bedroll style pack like the Ortlieb Rack Pack
- Ortlieb rear panniers can also function as large capacity front panniers for Tandem tourists who are carrying enough gear for two riders on only one set of bicycle racks, BUT, be careful putting panniers this large on the front of a solo bike that steers faster than a tandem. Such large panniers have a lot of surface area, and may make your bike harder to steer in a crosswind than smaller front panniers. Some folks do this and tell me it is OK, but not all bikes handle the same, so I hesitate to make the recommendation.
- Ortlieb Classic panniers are made from a very durable coated polyester fabric. This fabric has been the standard in waterproofing for many years.
- All seams are high frequency welded, providing excellent waterproofing along with narrow manufacturing tolerances. You will be impressed by the high quality workmanship!
- Don't think "Plastic" when you see the mounting system. Ortlieb hardware is made from a fiber-reinforced high-tech plastic that is extremely strong and durable, and in many tests can be stronger than metal parts.
- Ortlieb panniers are great for cross-country touring. Have no worries about staying organized when using panniers with large main compartments. If you pack inside with a variety of sizes of stuff sacks and zip-lock bags, you can stay very well organized. Smaller bags inside the main compartment are removable inner pockets. They can help you stay organized in camp, and when you are ready to pack up in the morning, you simply toss the pre-packed into your panniers, and you are ready to go. You won't be riding with a jumbled mess inside your bags.
- Ortlieb panniers set the standard for waterproof bags. Make certain you pack your tent and sleeping bags in waterproof stuff sacks if they are going inside the panniers. Keep your clean clothing separate from dirty laundry, and hang things where they can air out and dry out when you have the opportunities. If it rains in the night, you don't want a wet tent to get everything else in your pack wet. And if you put a dry sleeping bag in a wet pannier, then at the end of the day you won't enjoy trying go to sleep in that wet bag!
- Sometimes I get customers who say "I don't want waterproof bags." They are worried about wet gear in the bags not drying out while they are riding. They are correct. Gear will not dry out while you are riding with Ortlieb panniers. But that is true with non-waterproof panniers. Most non-waterproof bags are at least water resistant, and they have tightly sewn seems and the zippers do not provide ventilation. And if you put wet items in a waterproof bag before it goes into a pannier, in order to avoid getting other things wet, of course the wet items stay wet. Put wet items in ANY pannier, and unless you leave the tops of the panniers open and risk losing some gear, you will have some items to hang out to dry when you reach your next camp. Get caught in an all-day rain, and you sure will be glad you have Ortlieb waterproofing! Bottom line: Hang your gear out to dry whenever you get the chance, but don't worry about riding with waterproof panniers.
- I once had a customer tell me that he rode for three months through the rainy season in Vietnam, and he bragged about his Ortlieb Packer series panniers and how well they kept his gear dry!

Since when do we have rules here?

Since when do we have rules here?
Rules? What are those? I don't even...
You make a thread about rules, and suddenly all these new members come flocking. It just goes to show the power of Authority.
Yeah, Authority feels good.
I added numbers and letters to organize the rules a little better.
Authority is what lets people like you change your username ten times a week, change member names, double post as much as you want without a cooldown time, and all that other shit. You can laugh at it all you want, but the fact of the matter is that you have more privelages from it.
A quick question. I'm making the rep section right now, but I don't want to use the term 'rep whoring' as one of the sub-sections. What's a professional way to say rep whoring?
One Word Replies in main sections?
sry but the less rules the more fun a forum is.
telling people to post 15 word answers is annoying when it comes to some thread types
I agree with Firefist. We want to keep this place fun. Still gonna add it in the spam section but more as a guideline than an actual rule.
Having it as a rule doesn't mean we'll suddenly get stricter though. It just means that when it comes to threads with opinions, you can't just post an answer without any reason.
Not all one word posts are spam though. If someone asks a simple question that can be answered in a simple yes, no, or other word, than that shouldn't count as breaking a rule.
Which is why I don't object it to being more of a guideline than a rule.

Hi Folks
Mags here and I am here to share a little inspiration for our current challenge of 'Creatures'. Our sponsor for this challenge is Oak Pond Creations and I used a super little image called Olivia Owl.
I decided to go for a monochromatic black and white theme. I didn't add any colour to the image apart from a little grey for definition. I also added some stickles around the edge of the image for sparkle. I hope you like her and for more details please pop by my blog.
Look out for more inspiration from the design team throughout the month and hope you will join in the challenge.
Bye for now

It's been ages since we all last went on a holiday. The last time we went on a holiday was to La Rochelle in France - that was in 2008. Our PhD work and all the various therapy sessions for our son keep us occupied. I can't wait to complete and submit my thesis.
However, there are other things to worry about after I submit my thesis. namely getting a job. I really want to stay here in the UK for a while to continue the Son-rise programme with our son as well as the other therapies which are not available in Malaysia. It's just our luck that the Conservatives came to power just as we were completing our studies and made it tougher for us to get jobs. So far I have had only one interview out of the various applications I had sent out. However, I didn't get that job as well either. Everybody tells me that the doors will open once I get my PhD and I am hoping for the best.
Anyway, as soon as my wife and I submit our theses, we plan to go away somewhere nice. Can't wait for that day.

Bring a pot of salted water to a gentle boil.
In a mixing bowl, combine the masa, lard and salt. Mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumb-like mixture. Stir in enough water to form a soft dough. Form the dough into small balls, about 1 tablespoon each. Lightly press your thumb in the center of each ball.
Add the dumplings to the water and cook until the dumplings float to the surface, about 4 minutes. Continue to cook for 2 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels. Season with salt.

Toyota C-HR review
In this review
Overall rating
Lombardyexperience? says...
It's a bit unfair, really. The Nissan Qashqai gets all the plaudits for kicking off the small SUV craze when Toyota arguably did so more than a decade earlier with the original RAV4.
The modern day RAV4 is a much larger and dumpier beast, however, which is where the Toyota C-HR comes in. It's roughly the same size as its main rivals, the aforementioned Qashqai and the Seat Ateca. However, it isn't as roomy in the back as those cars (blame the sleek roofline) and costs a bit more to buy.
More positively, if you're a company car driver the Hybrid version will keep your tax bills low and even the entry-level Icon model gets you a generous amount of standard equipment.
Read on over the next few pages to find out if the Toyota C-HR is the car for you, how it compares with its main rivals and which engines and trims make the most sense.

The buzz is that Manav, who played business tycoon Karan Bali in Star One's Betiyaan Aapni Ya Parayaa Dhan, has hired an agent to get into South Indian films. His friends from Bollywood have been suggesting his name for cameo roles in Hindi films. Manav has already auditioned for a couple of films but nothing seems to have worked in his favour. The actor has been complimented on his looks and supposedly has a striking resemblance to one of the popular South Indian actors.
Manav, who prefers not to discuss about his new projects, says, "I was not really keen on doing films. But if something interesting comes my way I will certainly do it. My friends have been encouraging me to try my luck in Bollywood and I have auditioned for a few films as well."
The actor is being extremely choosy about taking up work on television. Manav has wrapped up Betiyaan… and is set to do a cameo in Saarrthi. Adds Manav, "I am waiting for the television industry to grow. I am hoping there will be better work as there are loads of new channels coming up these days. Next, I will be doing a cameo in Saarrthi, where I'll play a positive character, who will add a twist to the tale."

Losing your job or being made redundant can be a stressful time. Not only can it affect your career, but it can affect your health and personal relationships
The basics of assets and liabilities are straightforward, and the definitions are very basic. Yet understanding assets and liabilities and how they impact your financial circumstances can be the difference between financial success or failure.
In accounting terms an asset is something you own, that provides a future economic benefit. It is an item that can be sold and has intrinsic value. A liability is money you owe or debt you hold.
Assets include cash, investments, bank accounts, real estate, vehicles, collectibles, antiques and other items you own.
Liabilities include mortgages, home equity loans, automobile loans, student loans and credit card debt.
As an individual or a business the goal is to have a positive net worth, and to have that net worth grow over time. Net worth is established by adding your assets and subtracting your liabilities. If the number is positive there is a positive net worth. This number establishes your financial value.
There is more to assets and liabilities than a definition and numerical calculation determining financial value. The better assets and liabilities are understood the better financial decisions can be made. This is what builds wealth.
Not all assets are equal because assets are either gaining or losing value. Assets that gain value are appreciating assets and assets that lose value are depreciating assets.
Appreciating Assets increase in value over time. These are investments. When we put money in a savings account, certificate of deposit, bond, or mutual fund we are anticipating that the asset (account) value will increase. Purchasing a home creates the expectation that the asset will grow in value during the period of ownership.
Depreciating assets include purchases that lose value over time. Let's say you buy a new outfit. Whether it is a simple outfit or a fancy suit or dress does not matter. Whether you paid $100 for it or $1000 for it, the results are the same, you will never be able to sell the outfit for what you paid for it. This is a depreciating asset. Unfortunately much of the money spent falls into this category. The cars you drive, the food you buy, and trips you take are all depreciating assets. Once the money is spent on the item, you may be able to use it, but you will not get the value from the item, that went into the purchase.
Debt creates a liability. This is true even for assets like real estate. The challenge with debt is that the interest that is paid, reduces the equity in the asset. If you buy a home and pay $200,000, but then over the course of the mortgage pay another $200,000 in interest, the actual costs of the home is $400,000 plus repairs and improvements that were put into the home. If you do not make purchases wisely all of the equity (assets minus the liability) can be lost in interest payments.
When looking at assets and liabilities as to tool to increase wealth, it becomes possible to make better financial decisions that will build your portfolio. Then, financial goals can be reached and your net worth increased.

Roll Call!!!
Do you ever feel like there is no one out there in your blog world? I basically have two or three people who frequently comment but don't know who else reads my posts. I don't think I have a "focus" here- I write about a variety of things. I have two private blogs (one about our family and one about my daycare) that I write on more often. What do you want to see here? If we are friends or I know you and that you are not a creep, let me know and I can send you the private blog invite.
So- if you read this blog... leave me a comment here on this post to let me know that more than Krystal, Naomi, and Hollie read what I post ;) (Not that I don't love them!)

Not only was it a fun project, it is always a great way to repurpose and be more earth friendly and "green."
Thanks for popping in today, and hope you enjoyed seeing these little tags.
Such a cute idea. I always feel so guilty throwing the beautiful cards away.
I love it. Did you recycle Elvis and Ashley?
Oh wow....what a neat idea! I have a whole box of the Christmas photos that have been sent to us. Now I know what I can do with them instead of tossing out. Thanks for the great idea! Hugs, Geri
What a fantastic idea to personalize some gift tags to give! Very cute to use the ornament die for this too...so creative! :)
Fun idea! I save my cards to scrap but I'll have to share this with my mom :-)
What a fabulous idea. These are all so cute!
Girl you are absolutely brilliant!! These are splendid, practical, personal and FUN! I love up cycling and this just rocks!
What a fun idea. I love it. I bet it would make a great craft for kids, too.
I've recycled my cards into gift tags and also use them in cardmaking itself! Great way to be resourceful!

Imagine-if Photography Q&A
What's the secret to taking a great photograph?
A great Photograph is one which is remembered.
To take a good photographs you need two key ingredients, Composition and Lighting, It makes no difference if you are taking a photo of an old kettle or a Ferrari, the same principles apply. But truly Great photos make you feel and make you think creating an emotional link between the image and the viewer.
What questions might you ask a client when starting a new project?
I never try to second guess what a client may want, so my starting point is always to talk.
As a photographer my job is to work closely with the client to realise their vision, I should be in a position to guide and suggest options which will produce a result the client is overjoyed with.
My key question would be "can we discuss you ideas over coffee", talk cost nothing and there is no obligation.
What do you love most about your job?
That's an easy question… When a photograph hits the spot with my customers, then I'm happy.
It's nothing to do with money, it all about people, I want 100% satisfaction for my clients, and capturing that magic moment is what it's all about.
I also love fine art printing and believe capturing the image is only a part of the process. Printing is the natural transition of an idea onto paper.
What inspired you to start your own business?
Having been an automotive engineer for many many years, working in a high pressure industry and constantly travelling. I decided to step out of the race and focus on a small business my wife and I can run together. I've been taking photographs since the age of twelve, since then it's always been in my blood . When I was accepted as a member of the Royal Photographic Society in 2009 I knew the path I had followed was right for me.
Why should our clients choose you?
Why should a client choose me … There are plenty of photographers to choose from, I would say there are lots with the same dedication and experience as me. Many will do you proud and many will be very pleased to work with you.
Choose me if you want a photographer who shares the same enthusiasm as you for your photographs,
Choose me if you want someone who has the time to listen and work with you, to get the images you want.
Choose me if you want a photographer who's not satisfied until you're satisfied.

Hello Friends! I have an unusual card share today because it's been years since I've made a Halloween card. When I started making cards on a regular basis for OWH back in 2008 I'd gone out and gotten a small selection of Halloween stamps. There weren't as many OWH crafters making cards back then and since they were in demand for heros to send home I found myself including Halloween designs in my boxes.
Fast forward a few years to 2012 and now there were many Halloween cards being made and a dwindling demand... so I did the natural thing and in a clean-out of my supplies I sold off a bunch of stamps, including all the Halloween stamps I had. All except for one... the one I used to create this card for a recent card swap.
It's a simple card but I'm glad I held onto this stamp since it at least it gave me something to use to create this card.
Happy Crafting!

Coming Out Of Your Shell: Displaying Small Artwork In Your Antique Booth or Shop
Displaying Unframed Small Artwork In The Opening of A Vintage Planter
It's hard to display unframed small artwork (postcard size or smaller) in a crowded Antique booth unless you use a tiny easel or lean the mini artwork up against another object. Another option is to showcase small artwork by combining it with a pottery planter or vase. In the picture shown, I have propped this little orginal canvas on top of a vintage shell motif planter. I like conserving space and having my collectibles serve dual purposes. I also use compatible colors so it looks like it makes sense.

Cancer! It's a dreaded word, a word that often invokes a sense of despair and sometimes even hopelessness.
Another term for cancer is malignancy. Medically, the word malignant describes a tumor of potentially unlimited growth that expands locally into adjoining tissue by invasion and systemically by metastasizing into other areas of the body. Left alone, a malignancy tends to infiltrate and metastasize throughout the entire body and will eventually cause death. No wonder cancer and malignant are such dreaded words.
Sin is a spiritual and moral malignancy. Left unchecked, it can spread throughout our entire inner being and contaminate every area of our lives. Even worse, it often will "metastasize" from us into the lives of other believers around us. None of us lives on a spiritual or social island. Our attitudes, words, and actions, and oftentimes even our private unspoken thoughts, tend to have an effect on those around us.
Paul must have had this concept in mind when he wrote, "Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear" (Ephesians 4: 29). Our speech, whether it is about others or to others, tends to tear down or build up. It either corrupts the minds of our hearers, or it gives grace to them. Such is the power of our words. If I gossip, I both tear down another person and corrupt the mind of my listener. If I complain about the difficult circumstances of my life, I impugn the sovereignty and goodness of God and tempt my listener to do the same. In this way, my sin "metastasizes" into the heart of another person.
Sin, however, is much more than wrong actions, unkind words, or even those evil thoughts that we never express. Sin is a principle or moral force in our heart, our inner being. Our sinful actions, words, and thoughts are simply expressions of the principle of sin residing within us, even in those of us whose hearts have been renewed. The apostle Paul calls this principle the flesh (or sinful nature in some Bible translations). This principle, called the flesh, is such a reality that Paul sometimes personifies it (see, for example, Romans 7: 8-11; Galatians 5: 17).
Now, here is the unvarnished truth that we need to lay to heart. Even though our hearts have been renewed, even though we have been freed from the absolute dominion of sin, even though God's Holy Spirit dwells within our bodies, this principle of sin still lurks within us and wages war against our souls. It is the failure to recognize the awful reality of this truth that provides the fertile soil in which our "respectable" or "acceptable" sins grow and flourish.
We who are believers tend to evaluate our character and conduct relative to the moral culture in which we live. Since we usually live at a higher moral standard than society at large, it is easy for us to feel good about ourselves and to assume that God feels that way also. We fail to reckon with the reality of sin still dwelling within us. One of the common truths about cancer is that it can often grow undetected until it reaches a crisis stage or even a stage that is terminal. When my wife visited her doctor on June 19, 1987, she had no idea there was a malignant tumor growing in her abdominal area. And even her capable physicians who successfully treated the tumor failed to detect that it had already metastasized into her lymph system. In fact, the word deceitful, which is a moral term, can be used to describe the way cancer often seems to operate. It seems to have been successfully treated; but unexpectedly, it reappears somewhere else in the body.
The way cancer operates is a good analogy of the way sin, especially so-called acceptable or refined sin, operates in our lives. As I mentioned in the preface, another good descriptive term is subtle sins. The word subtle has a wide variety of meanings, some positive, as in "the subtle shades of blue in a painting." But often it has a strong negative connotation to mean wily, crafty, insidious, or treacherous. That is the sense of the word in the expression subtle sins. The acceptable sins are subtle in the sense that they deceive us into thinking they are not so bad, or not thinking of them as sins, or even worse, not even thinking about them at all! Yes, some of our refined sins are so subtle that we commit them without even thinking about them, either at the time or afterward. We often live in unconscious denial of our "acceptable" sins.
We present-day believers have, to some extent, been influenced by the "feel good about myself" philosophy of our times. By contrast, believers in the Puritan era of the seventeenth century had a different view of themselves. They feared the reality of sin still dwelling in them. I have in my library four books on sin by pastors of that era. Here are their titles:
The Sinfulness of Sin
The Mischief of Sin
The Anatomy of Secret Sins
The Evil of Evils or The Exceeding Sinfulness of Sin
These pastors all saw sin for what it actually is: a diabolical force within us. Ralph Venning, the author of The Sinfulness of Sin, uses especially colorful (in the negative sense) words to describe sin. Over the space of only a few pages, he says that sin is vile, ugly, odious, malignant, pestilent, pernicious, hideous, spiteful, poisonous, virulent, villainous, abominable, and deadly.
Take a few moments to ponder those words so as to get the full impact of them. Those words describe not just the scandalous sins of society but also the respectable sins we tolerate in our own lives. Think of such tolerated sins as impatience, pride, resentment, frustration, and self-pity. Do they seem odious and pernicious to you? They really are. To tolerate those sins in our spiritual lives is as dangerous as to tolerate cancer in our bodies. Seemingly small sins can lead to more serious ones. Lustful looks often lead to pornography addiction and perhaps even adultery. Murder often has its genesis in anger, which grows into bitterness, then to hatred, and finally the murder.
So far we've looked at our sin as it affects us. We've seen its malignant tendency in both our lives and the lives of others around us. The more important issue, however, is how our sin affects God. Someone has described sin as cosmic treason. If that seems like an overstatement, consider that the word transgression in the Bible, as seen for example in Leviticus 16: 21, actually means rebellion against authority — in this case, God's authority. So when I gossip, I am rebelling against God. When I harbor resentful thoughts toward someone instead of forgiving him or her in my heart, I am rebelling against God.
In Isaiah 6: 1-8, the prophet Isaiah sees a vision of God in His absolute majesty. He hears angelic beings calling out, "Holy, holy, holy is the LORD of hosts; the whole earth is full of his glory!" (verse 3). Any Jew would have understood that the threefold repetition of the word holy is intended to convey the highest possible degree of holiness. In other words, God is said to be infinitely holy. But what does it mean to say that God is infinitely holy? Certainly it speaks of His absolute moral purity, but it means much more than that. Primarily, the word holy, when used of God, speaks of His infinite, transcendent majesty. It speaks of His sovereign reign over all His creation. Therefore, when we sin, when we violate the law of God in any way, be it ever so small in our eyes, we rebel against the sovereign authority and transcendent majesty of God. To put it bluntly, our sin is an assault on the majesty and sovereign rule of God. It is indeed cosmic treason.
(Let's take David's sin with Bathsheba and his subsequent murder of her husband Uriah for example…)
When God sent Nathan the prophet to confront David about his sin. Here are Nathan's words:
Why have you despised the word of the LORD, to do what is evil in his sight? You have struck down Uriah the Hittite with the sword and have taken his wife to be your wife and have killed him with the sword of the Ammonites. Now therefore the sword shall never depart from your house, because you have despised me and have taken the wife of Uriah the Hittite to be your wife. (2 Samuel 12: 9-10, emphasis added)
Note the use of the word despised in both verses 9 and 10. In the first instance David despises the word (the law) of the Lord. In the second instance, God, speaking through Nathan, says, "You have despised me." We see from this that sin is a despising of the law of God. But we also see that to despise God's law is to despise Him. Now, it is easy for us to think that David's sin truly was grievous and fail to grasp the application of Nathan's words to ourselves. But as we have already seen, all sin, whether large or small in our eyes, is against God. Therefore, when I indulge in any of the so-called acceptable sins, I am not only despising God's law but, at the same time, I am despising God Himself. Think about that the next time you are tempted to speak critical or unkind words about someone.
We're not through yet. There's still more bad news. In the context of exposing sin in our relationships with one another (see Ephesians 4: 25-32), Paul says, "Do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption" (verse 30). When we think of our sin as rebellion against God's sovereign authority and a despising of both His law and His person, we are viewing God in His rightful role as our ruler and judge. But when we see our sin as grieving the Holy Spirit — that is, as grieving God — we are viewing God as our redeemer and Father. Our sin grieves our heavenly Father. Whether we are unkind to someone else or unforgiving when someone is unkind to us, we grieve our Father's heart.
Not only do we grieve our heavenly Father with our sin, we also presume on His grace. Paul wrote that God has forgiven us our trespasses, according to the riches of His grace (see Ephesians 1: 7). Now, that is a blessed truth, but sin, in its subtle deceitfulness, will suggest to us that our unkind words and resentful thoughts don't matter because God has forgiven them. Forgiveness, however, does not mean overlooking or tolerating our sin. God never does that. Instead, God always judges sin. But in our case (that is, the case of all who trust in Jesus as their Savior), God has judged our sin in the person of His Son. As the prophet Isaiah wrote, "All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD has laid on him the iniquity of us all" (Isaiah 53: 6). Shall we presume on God's grace by tolerating in ourselves the very sin that nailed Christ to the cross?
Next consider that every sinful thought and word and deed we do is done in the presence of God. David wrote,
O LORD, you have searched me and known me! You know when I sit down and when I rise up; you discern my thoughts from afar. You search out my path and my lying down and are acquainted with all my ways. Even before a word is on my tongue, behold, O LORD, you know it altogether. (Psalm 139: 1-4)
God knows our every thought; He hears our words before we even speak them and sees our every deed. He even searches our motives, for Paul wrote that when the Lord comes, He "will disclose the purposes [motives] of the heart" (1 Corinthians 4: 5).
This means that all of our rebellion, all of our despising of God and His law, all of our grieving His Holy Spirit, all of our presuming on His grace, all of our sin, is done openly in the very presence of God. It's as if we are acting out all of our sin before Him as He sits on His royal throne.
It does not matter whether our sin is scandalous or respectable, all our sin is sinful, only sinful, and altogether sinful. Whether it is large or small in our eyes, it is heinous in the sight of God. God forgives our sin because of the shed blood of Christ, but He does not tolerate it. Instead, every sin that we commit, even the subtle sin that we don't even think about, was laid upon Christ as He bore the curse of God in our place.
And herein lies chiefly the malignancy of sin. Christ suffered because of our sins. That, then, is the bad news about our sin, and, as you can see, it is really, really bad. How do you respond? Will you deflect it onto other people whom you see to be sinners? Do you find yourself wishing that a certain other person would read this? Or does this view of our sin cause you to want to fall on your knees before God in repentance and contrition over the sins you have tolerated in your life?

WI Note: "Warrior fanz are hoping that the football talent found at Lakewood will flow to Manoa. This summer three highly touted members of the Lakes HS football team attended the Rich Miano Football Camp at Manoa–Cavin Schmidtke QB, Jermaine Kearse WR, and Koreye Dixon WR. Kavario Middleton was scheduled to attend but a prior commitment to an AAU basketball function caused him to cancel."
Asked how his season was going so far, Dixon said:
"so far we're currently the number 1 team in the state and we're 3-0. We look pretty good but there's room for improvement." (WI)
Asked what schools are recruiting him the most and if he has set up any visits yet, Dixon said:
"Right now it's pretty much the local schools who are recruiting me the hardest. Eastern Washington, Washington State, Washington, Oregon State, and Oregon. I don't really have a favorite but Eastern is the only to offer me." (WI)
Asked how the UH camp went, Dixon said:
"Oh, the camp was great, and I love Hawaii. The weather was great, always things to do there and i met a lot of people. As far as the camp went…it was pretty good i got to work with a lot of other players and coaches. I had a groin injury that kind-a-slowed me down but overall it was a good experience." (WI)
Asked how his relationship with their new QB (Calvin Schmidtke), Dixon said:
"His chemistry with the team is really good. He fit right in with the team and we're good friends now. He knows how to be serious when we need to but away from football he's a jokester." (WI)
Asked if it was hard to get noticed by schools because he's surrounded by players like Kearse and Middleton, which makes him underrated, Dixon said:
"yeah i would agree to that I'm pretty underrated but it isn't really that hard for me to be noticed, i mean yeah they get alot of the attention but when coaches come to scout them they also come to see the rest of the talent that our team brings and that's when i take advantage of my opportunities, but don't get me wrong my team always comes first." (WI)
Asked for his height, weight, and 40 time, Dixon said:
"5′9″ 165 and i last ran a 4.5 in the 40" (WI)

SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch)—Gold futures dropped Friday on tame U.S. inflation data, but recouped earlier losses as haven demand emerged following news of clashes between Ukrainian and Russian forces.
December gold futures GCZ4, +0.00% fell $9.50, or 0.7%, to $1,306.20 an ounce. For the week, gold futures shed 0.4%. September silver US:SIU4 lost nearly 38 cents, or 1.9%, to trade at $19.53 an ounce.
The precious metal weakened after data showed U.S. producer prices rose just 0.1% in July, a sign of low inflation pressure. The data was in line with forecasts.
But gold's regained some ground in response to a Ukrainian strike on a Russian military unit.
Still, once geopolitical risks abate, gold is expected to see very little support.
"Since demand for jewelry, bars and coins has proved very weak of late, overall demand for gold is again more dependent on investors. However, investment demand is probably not sufficient to make up completely for weak physical demand in Asia at present, especially since coin sales in the West are likewise modest," wrote strategists at Commerzbank in Frankfurt.

I spaced out on approving and publishing the moderated comments (thanks Craig). So now, there are about 30 commnents, dating back from late May.
I was wondering why nobody congratulated me on my new job :-)
Starting to play around with Microsoft's WMI for instrumenting applications. I need to beat up on Microsoft for not letting you author .NET-based WMI providers that allow method invocation and property setters. All you can do with .NET WMI providers are receive events and do property gets. You cannot change a value through a property setting, nor can you manage an application by calling a method on a provider.
Seems that if you want to write a fully-functional WMI provider, then you have to drop down to COM (even using ATL) and C++.
This limitation is severe. This means that I cannot write a .NET app that can be managed by a .NET provider. This means that, if I want to write a monitoring and management dashboard (for monitoring, let's say, a .NET-based trading system), I have to drag out my old COM/ATL books and write unmanaged code. Ugh!
It seems as if plenty of people on the newsgroups share my pain.

A little pet peeve of mine is recipes whose titles start with, "the best." Really - the best? In those whole vast culinary world you want to throw down the gauntlet and make that claim? That takes some mighty large huevos my friend.
Hence, when a co-worker tried a slice of this cheesecake from America's Test Kitchen and exclaimed, "this is the best cheesecake that I have ever had," my natural skepticism paused.
This cheesecake... is too legit to quit. Now I'm not going to give it the title of "best" but goodness gracious it's better than good. It's freaking good. Why so? Adjectives include luscious, creamy, rich, and smooth, full-bodied without being heavy.
The crust offers a nice counter balance because of the baked in cinnamon. I would say you could even cut back a little bit on the sugar in the crust. As with any cheesecake, make sure you schedule around the cooking time (about 2 hours total with cake and crust)! I prefer baking the day before so it has the night to chill.
This cheesecake was specially made for my kuya (brother) as a birthday treat! You've seen a few cheesecakes (White Chocolate Cheesecake with Hearts and Raspberry Swirled Cheesecake) that I've made for him for past birthdays. Brandon is always more than grateful. He gives a big hug and thank you no matter what someone gives him. I could bestow him with a bowl of mud and he'd be appreciative. You can imagine my surprise when he simply said, "this is better than last year's cheesecake."
If this recipe can break kuya's super considerate silence... well then we're cooking with fire.
Know this now! When you sign up for cheesecake... real cheesecake... you are signing up for sinfully high calories and a trip to confession. Better make that the gym. This angelic looking recipe holds an asinine amount of cream cheese, a whole bunch of eggs, a little sour cream, just a hint of lemon, a dash of vanilla extract, and some serious sugar. Don't you dare try to lie to yourself with that "light" cream cheese nonsense.
Steer into the skid, my friends.
Adorning the top of this cheesecake, I added some roasted strawberries. Roasted strawberries are my answer to everything! They're incredible on top buckwheat pancakes, served with some wine, or slathered on millet muffins. The best part is their simplicity and versatility. I bake them whole on at 375F until their tender, about 15-20 minutes, with a little maple syrup drizzled on top. There's no need for a lot of sugar, let nature do her work.
The only issue I had with this recipe was the quantity it produced. I definitely had enough batter for TWO cheesecakes. I'm not sure if this is the intention of yield but it sure made for some happy co-workers!

Is there any chance of a 'Bulk Open' feature in the future?
Is there any chance of a 'Bulk Open' feature in the future?
Doesn't hurt to keep asking. QoL isn't high on the priority list though.
Check out these topics:
Orange Tracker || Hex Card Search || Hex API || API Parser || Collector Spreadsheet
Unofficial Features & Milestones List || Auction House: Bid/Ask is Better
I cleared 800 this week, and that was after I opened about a hundred and fifty and finally got sick of the slowdown opening each one caused.
Still missing 2 replicators, too.

As a free player I think I've opened 3 chests
Also Replicators are gotten from chests?
Our CzE Recruitment Thread: http://forums.cryptozoic.com/showthread.php?t=24252
The list of items is definitely small, but if there are too many items that are only available to 1% of the population even when they are being generated, people will simply get sick of it and leave. Especially the PvE stuff.

Fungal Monstrosity has the same rarity and no one is complaining about it. So the issue is more that these cards punk the arena and generate tons of gold.

On November 1, the Angolan Minister of Industry, Botelho de Vasconcelos, officially inaugurated the world's largest, floating oil platform in the world, named Pazflor. Having a potential production capacity of 220,000 barrels of oil per day at a construction cost of some $9 billion, the unit is operated by the oil company Total.
Total began production on its new Pazflor project offshore Angola in August. Oil fields on the venture, which have estimated total reserves of 590m barrels, lie in water depths of between 600 and 1,200 metres and so add to Angola's growing list of deepwater and ultra-deepwater projects.
Standard oil rigs cannot be used in such deep water because they cannot be fixed to the sea bed and so oil companies use ships known as floating, production storage and offloading (FPSO) vessels to tap deepwater fields.
Oil is pumped up into FPSOs and then stored until it can be transferred to waiting oil tankers for distribution. Although expensive, such operations remove the need to pipe oil onshore for shipping and allow oil to be tapped in water depths that would otherwise be beyond conventional oil production methods.
According to Total, the FPSO on Pazflor is the biggest in the world, measuring 325 metres by 62 metres with a weight of more than 120,000 tonnes. With storage capacity of 1.9m barrels per day, it could hold Angola's entire production for a single day.
Production will be gradually increased to 220,000 b/d on 49 wells. Total E&P Angola operates the project with a 40% stake, with the remaining equity held by Statoil (23.33%), Esso Exploration Angola (20%) and BP Exploration Angola (16.67%). Most of the world's biggest oil companies are involved in one jumbo Angolan oil project or another. (ANGOP, APA News southern Africa)

I attended an eMarketer breakfast event recently, which was entitled 'The Mobile Kingdom: How the UK is Leading the World to a Mobile Future'. The event included a couple of speakers, including eMarketer Chairman Geoff Ramsey.
Geoff presented a quick-fire presentation that included a number of different facts and figures regarding the state and play of mobile penetration, ad-spends and adopting a mobile mindset.
Included in some of the statstepss were two that stood out from all of the others regarding the rise of mobile adoption and ad-spend.
- 21 – 34% marketers look at mobile within a multi-channel strategy
- Only 11% using Geo-targeting capabilities
Given consumer reliance on our mobile phones, I found both of these stats surprisingly low.
These are further brought into context when you take into account that mobile ad-spend represents 40% of the UK digital ad-spend at £3.3bn.
Therefore, this effectively means that around £2.48bn is spent (75%) without being measured and integrated into a wider digital strategy.
Or around £2.9bn is spent without understanding and targeting where the mobile user is consuming the content. This seems counterintuitive to the point of mobile advertising!
This also represents a great deal of wasted media spend, which could be more effectively integrated into a wider multi/omni–channel strategy, given the obvious advantages that mobile has to connect offline to online.
But why isn't this the case? Ever since 2007 onwards, and the launch of the iPhone, all marketers would hear, or say, would be this is the year of mobile! But in 2015 marketers are still not tracking or measuring effectively?
To a certain extent the level of creativity within mobile formats compared to other digital platforms is still rudimentary. This is not to say that there are not great examples of mobile-led campaigns because there are; campaigns that have used mobile bridge the gap between digital and offline by allowing for redeemable codes, or other POS offers have been the norm for a number of years.
However, I am talking about campaigns that are fully synced with a consistent brand experience and message and optimised based on the time and the place of the user, and of course, whatever they happen to be consuming the media on.
It seems that there is still a great deal of mobile 'catch up' being played by the brands that were slow to react to mobile optimised sites, then by extending their marketing efforts to mobile as a channel and now (lastly) viewing mobile as a fully integrated communication platform.
Mobile isn't going away, indeed out of a global population 7.1 billion, 1.84 billion have a mobile phone and in some developing countries digital penetration is bypassing desktops and going straight to mobile.
Furthermore, mobile ad-spend is growing at an extremely fast rate with a global average at 61.1%, meaning brands are investing, but not fully understanding why they are investing aside from knowing that they should be.
So can creativity be achieved whilst delivering a consistent brand experience and fully utilising the power of the mobile? I guess it is of no surprise, but yes, it can be!
With 88% of us spending our time within mobile apps when we use our mobile it is unsurprising that we should start to fully harness the functionality and location capabilities of an app being opened along with wider behavioural data to deliver personalised 'here and now' brand experiences.
Creativity does not just extend itself to banners or text ads. Creativity is understanding the function of the device to the target consumer and how best to utilise to achieve the end result – sales etc.
This is something brands and marketers should do first. Start at the end and reverse engineer the journey to understand the touch points along the way and what role they play.
We are lucky in the fact that we can track the effectiveness of each of these points and, with the increasing 'smart' functionality of the mobile we can start to fully bridge offline and online, which will just function as just 'online' in the near future.
So what can and should brands do to effectively plan their mobile strategy?
Below are a couple of basic steps that should be integrated into every campaign:
- Understand your consumer journey to purchase. No, really understand the consumer journey. Work out the role in which mobile plays and reverse engineer the touch points that would happen using mobile. Once this has taken place, only then, can a strategy be developed for mobile. A mobile strategy is not a PPC extension, or programmatic blind buy. It is an experience up until the point of POS or whatever the desired action.
- Track beyond the basics – advertisers create extremely granular actions and advanced tracking parameters within desktop, but not in mobile? Blind network buys tracking ad impressions, clicks and a sale may have worked a couple of years ago but nottoday. In an omni-channel brand experience advertising plays many roles to the end game and needs to be measured for the role it is designed to do and not a blanket metric across all.
- Define KPIs on the role defined and not end result. This may sound counter-intuitive, but if each KPI is being met along the consumer journey, the end goal (in theory) should be met. The aim is to not 'cut' a touch point because of a blanket metric. If the end resultis not being met, work back to define the point in the consumer journey, which is not working.
- Whisper rather than shout. Again, this may sound counterproductive from an advertising perspective, but just because consumers are more likely to leave their wallet at home than their mobile, it shouldn't be a given carte blanche to exploit with constant disruptive messaging. When executed correctly mobile advertising can be the constant that leads to purchase.
Like all digital marketing it is a case of test, learn and optimise, but hopefully these give a few pointers along the way.
What else should marketers focus on for mobile? Let me know your thoughts.

I referred to my book "Painting Vibrant Watercolors" by Soon Y. Warren. Her paintings are magnificent and I find her technique very inspiring. She is a watercolour artist, but her paintings are almost photorealism. The detail and technique is amazing. There is a whole chapter in her book on how to paint crystal vases. So I read it carefully and tried to apply some of the techniques such as leaving areas of reflection white, painting in the shapes that the light refractions make. My vase is much simpler in shape than a cut crystal vase, so it was not as time consuming or as difficult as I originally thought it would be. I'd like to try to paint a cut crystal vase one day. That would certainly be a challenge !!

(CNN) -- For the Oscar-winner and Hollywood A-lister, family takes priority over career goals.
A recent brief trip to Hong Kong to film "Contagion" directed by Steven Soderberg fitted in well with how she wants her life to be: an enjoyable cultural experience then back home to be with her family and continue her other projects that include charity work and the website "GOOP".
"I am never away from [my children] for longer than five days, a week at the most.... I do one film a year, and then I do the rest of my stuff at home," she told CNN.
"It is a balance. Sometimes I have to not do something that sounds really appealing, but it just doesn't work for my family. You can't have it all."
Despite recent roles in big budget Hollywood films like the "Iron Man" movies, and being in the luxurious position of being able to pick and choose what roles she wants, she refutes her star status.
"I mean technically I'm really not a movie star, you know I kind of do more independent movies. I mean sometimes I'm in movies that make a lot of money, but I don't think that's my niche."
Married to British musician Chris Martin since 2005, she has skillfully taken herself away from the flashbulbs of the paparazzi as much as she can.
Yet she was once the subject to fevered media gossip, especially when she was engaged to Brad Pitt in the mid-1990s. But media intrusion is much worse now, she says.
"The funny thing about it is, when I look back now, it's nothing compared to what people go through now with the tabloids. I think it's ramped up to a whole other level. It was strange to be followed around and photographed," she said.
"But in the ensuing 15 years or whatever it has got a hundred times worse. When I see high profile relationships now, I think, 'Oh my God' even though I'm technically in one. But we sort of don't do anything public, we try to keep it behind the scenes as possible. Because it just generates more interest, and more paparazzi and being followed, and it just undermines the quality of your life.
"It's just unnecessary to be a public couple, and to have your couple-dom or whatever be its own entity, it doesn't make sense to have that in the public world."
However she did make public her struggle to cope with postpartum depression after the birth of her second child Moses in 2006. It was personally shocking and she felt it was an issue that needed more public attention.
"I hadn't heard anyone say, 'I'm having a very hard time connecting to this baby' so I could say, 'Me too'. "I just thought 'I am a terrible mother, I'm a terrible person, how has this happened, what's wrong with me, I just don't feel well.' And luckily, after about four months, I started to really come out of it, because some women experience it for much, much longer," she said.
"But I think that it's so important for women to know that it happens, it's common, and there's nothing wrong with them, and they're not a bad mother, and to seek help if they need it or at least a support group."

Escort cards will be effective as long as they are easy to read and presented in a manner that makes it easy for guests to find the card with their own name on it. More and more brides are going beyond simple cards left on a table. Here are some great creative ideas for letting your guests know where they are assigned to sit.
Don't Stick to Just Cards
Little items can be decorated as place cards. Items keeping with the general theme or the theme of love and marriage generally work. Paint shells for a beach wedding. Paint smooth stones for a garden luncheon theme. Write names on the bodies of little sailboats if the bride and groom like to sail. Baseball cards can be made with the couple's pictures and vital statistics for a couple that are baseball fans. The possibilities are really endless and only limited by the couple's imagination.
The Clothesline Method
Place cards can be pinned with clothespins to a clothesline or folded cards can be draped over the line. This works best with a few short lines instead of one long line reaching very far.
Folded Cards
If a couple is set on placing cards on a table to be traditional, folded place cards can give the table some dimension and still be traditional and elegant. Try placing the cards on mini risers with each table or two placed on a different tier.
Spruce Up a Plain Card
Couples on a budget can do a lot to make plain escort cards really pop. Punch a hole in the corner of the place cards and use some ribbon and charms to embellish them. Use stick on gems to accent the couples monogram or floral accents on the place cards. Add a touch of glitter for some sparkle. For a beach wedding, have the cards arranged on a table made like a sandbox.
Getting creative with place cards is an easy and inexpensive way to add a personal touch to any wedding or event. There is no limit to the possibilities. Browse pictures online for some ideas and adapt them to fit the bride and groom.

Terry McPhillips and Tony Grant have been appointed as Blackburn's assistant manager and first-team coach respectively.
The pair have been promoted from academy coaches to senior backroom staff members on a full-time basis having previously assisted Gary Bowyer during his two spells as caretaker boss last season.
It comes after Bowyer was confirmed as Rovers' permanent manager on a 12-month rolling contract towards the end of last month.
Bowyer has also brought Eric Kinder back to Ewood Park as under-21 head coach, seven years after he left the club to join Carlisle's youth set-up.
"I am delighted to have Terry and Tony with me again because they played a massive part in what we did last season in keeping the club up," Bowyer told Blackburn's official website.
"They are both very hard working and share the same values as myself. They look forward to pushing the club forward and are determined to make this a success.
"It is important that you try to get people who care about the club or have an affiliation with it, and Eric certainly has that. He was here when I arrived nine years ago and we have always remained in touch.
"It is a very good appointment for us because Carlisle have produced a number of players through Eric's youth team and while I'm sure they'll be sad to see him go, we are delighted to have him on board."

YouTube is the first and largest of the "tube" sites, all of which revolve around the idea of the general public uploading and sharing videos. It was created in 2005, and later purchased by Google. Users have watched videos on the site more than 6 BILLION times since it started. It is in the top 5 most visited websites, and shows no sign of slowing down.
Anything that can be put on video is likely to show up on YouTube – family videos, political statements, instructional videos, amateur news reports, music, film clips, animation, etc. Frequent uploaders can even establish their own "channels." Some movie and television production companies have started uploading selections of their work, as well.
User-submitted videos must be no longer than 10 minutes in length and 2 GB in size. YouTube uses Adobe Flash to display the videos, which can be played directly from a web browser.
Libraries are using YouTube in unique ways. Some create their own book trailers, while others use the website to promote their upcoming events. Some sponsor teen video-making contests. There are library videos centered around training, library use, storytimes, performances, and much more.
For Thing 20, spend some time watching library-produced videos on YouTube. Some good search terms to get you started are:
Texas library
public library
school library
academic library
library event
In your blog, talk about the videos you saw. What were they trying to accomplish? How effective were they? Can you think of other uses of videos to help promote libraries or serve the public?

NeMa Eatery & Lounge Brings New Flavor to Downtown Wilmington
Unique Restaurant Fuses Hand-Crafted Foods With Small Batch Wines & Craft Beer
Wilmington, N.C. – Residents of Wilmington should prepare themselves for a new flavor in town. Introducing NeMa Eatery & Lounge, the downtown waterfront's latest restaurant.
NeMa has already created a core following with its selection of hand crafted menu items plus small batch wines and craft beers. The eatery offers familiar foods that are done a little differently – The lunch and dinner menu items range from grass fed burger with bacon jam to Thai chicken skewers with coconut curry sauce, and lots in between. The Garden pizza is a favorite, with garlic infused olive oil, caramelized onions, kale, pear, basil, mozzarella, parmesan, and gruyere, with balsamic reduction drizzle.
NeMa's most popular pizza crusts are made in house, including a sourdough pizza crust that requires a 12-hour fermentation process, as well as a scratch made, gluten free Paleo pizza crust made of cauliflower. The Short Rib Ravioli, an original NeMa creation, are also made from scratch. And don't forget about the delicious gluten-free desserts, such as the Trio of Brigadeiro Lollipop, a classic Brazilian treat, similar to a bonbon or truffle, which is rolled in dark chocolate, caramel brittle or toasted coconut.
The eatery, located at 225 South Water St. in Chandler's Wharf, is open for lunch and dinner Tuesday-Sunday, and includes picturesque views of the Cape Fear River. The ambiance is very relaxed, with a beautiful wood bar and walls of cobblestone and brick.
