I tried their gluten-free pepperoni pizza last night. It wasn't very good- crust was nearly burnt. I also had a garden salad with their garlic ranch dressing (didn't check the ingredients on the dressing). Anyway, having a reaction today.

On the page that showcases their gluten free crust there is a warning starting that the gluten free crust is made in the same kitchen as the rest of their crusts and is therefore not recommended for people with celiac disease. It is good that they placed this at the very top of the page in a red-lined box to make it much more noticeable.

This location gets GF! After being mistakenly poisoned by the location that delivers to my house (Oltorf location) I wanted to post a positive review for Lamar as they always get it right. Even when they have run out of GF crusts during deeply discounted promotions, they have made it up by crediting us for future orders. Thank you for taking GF seriously!

I will occasionally get a GF pizza from here but it's a toss-up each time. Sometimes I'll do okay, other times I'll be sick for days afterwards. I think there's just a huge risk of cross contamination. The GF pizza itself is actually really delicious in my opinion. But for Celiac, I wouldn't recommend trying it as there's too much CC risk.

This is a favorite Go-to carry out/delivery place since they moved to town. Ive never been cross contaminated and I've tried many gf pizza topping combinations with either BBQ sauce or red sauce, the chicken apple pecan salad (I don't use the cranberry pecan packet), and their baked plain or BBQ wings. This is the only place in LaPorte I know of that includes their gf pizzas with 50% off or BoGo pizza promo discounts when offered by dominos. Glad I gave this place a try. My favorite are the bbq wings!! Look up allergen info online. I found that helpful before placing my first few orders.

They have a disclaimer about cross contamination but we havent had any issues. Even the most sensitive in my family has had issues. However, be careful, i ordered a gf pizza that had chicken on it and they rannout of grulled chicken and started putting breaded chicked on it. The person making it was new and they corrected it by starting a new pizza. Also, they have a list of what toppings would be gluten free. The alfredo sauce is NOT gf so I always get the garlic sauce which is.

I tried the gluten free pizza for the first time last night. The pizza was very tasty. I asked the staff to make sure to keep the crust as far away from the other pizza crusts as possible and they said they would. I'm not sure about cross contamination since most pizza joints throw flour in the air all day but I feel fine so far. I would trust it for gluten sensitive people but still caution Celiac patients to use their best judgement.

In the short term, living and eating healthy generally costs more. However, in the long term, the habits of a sedentary lifestyle and eating cheaper fast foods and processed foods can lead to obesity, diabetes, cancer, and heart disease — which is quite expensive in terms of health care costs, quality of life and lifespan.
Of course, living a healthy lifestyle can take a lot of work. And for some, it may seem like it takes a lot of money, too. The reality is, however, that living a healthy lifestyle can save you more money in the long-term -- not only for you, but also for our nation.
When it comes to understanding the costs of unhealthy living, we need to look at several aspects. We need to look at our individual lifestyles, our national lifestyles, and the costs that don't always come directly out of our individual pockets. When we do that, we get a better picture of what it really cost to eat and live healthy vs. unhealthy:
When it comes to understanding the costs of unhealthy living, we need to look at several aspects. We need to look at our individual lifestyles, our national lifestyles, and the costs that don't always come directly out of our individual pockets. When we do that, we get a better picture of what it really cost to eat and live healthy vs. unhealthy:
Grocery Bill: It definitely cost a lot more for healthy foods such as extra virgin olive oil, organic Omega-3 eggs, wild salmon, free-range chicken, fresh organic vegetables, sprouted grain bread, and raw juices. However, if you reduce the amount of money that you spend on animal meat and purchase inexpensive healthy foods such as fresh spinach, kale, broccoli, carrots, pinto beans, brown rice, canned tuna/salmon, and frozen vegetables, you can stay within your grocery budget! Ironically, animal meat tends to be the most expensive item on the grocery list and it is one of the primary causes for a lot of our diseases such as obesity, cancer, and heart disease! Also, if you do your homework, you can get many of these healthier foods at discount.
Note: For more information about reducing your grocery bill, refer to an earlier post titled Tips for Eating Healthy Inexpensively.
Unhealthy Habit Costs: If you are an alcoholic or a smoker, this can put a major burden on your pocketbook. Drinking a bottle of liquor every day can cost you almost $3700 a year! Smoking a couple of packs of cigarettes a day can cost you almost $3000 a year. Think about the vacation you could take on that! Now remember, that is just the cost of the habit, not the cost of the potential diseases or conditions that may become a result of your habit.
Out-of-Pocket Medical Costs: The less healthier you are, the more likely you will need to visit the doctor for prescription medications. And in more serious situations, you will need medical procedures or some kind of surgery that can be very costly. Unhealthy lifestyles make up a huge percentage of healthcare costs, and unfortunately, very few of us have a full-coverage health insurance plan. As a result, each visit to the doctor…the additional medications required ... each stay in the hospital ... each surgery required…inevitably is money that will need to come out of your own pocket.
Less Income: The less healthier you are, the more likely you are going to be ill and have to take time off from work. If you are limited to a certain number of sick days a year and you go over that limit, you end up losing potential income as a result. Let's say an individual makes $20 an hour and they get 5 sick days a year. Because they are unhealthy and get sick more often, maybe they actually need 10 days a year. As a result, they take an extra 5 days off for the year. Financially, that would add up to $800 in lost income.To make matters worse, if you continue to miss too much work, you may lose your job!
Healthcare Costs: As we all know, healthcare coverage for our country is a very complicated and costly issue. What's more is that a lot of the cost can be avoided. It turns out that over 70 percent of our healthcare costs are specifically related to lifestyle decisions. According to the Wellness Council of America, here are some statistics about healthcare costs:
- The annual healthcare costs specific to obesity-related disease and health issues, all of which are considered preventable, represents about $150 billion or about 12 percent of our healthcare costs.
- Smoking-related illnesses account for $96.7 billion in healthcare, or approximately 8 percent of healthcare costs (CDC).
- Sedentary lifestyles account for 15 percent of all healthcare costs. It turns out that only 20 percent - 25 percent of the population achieves the recommended 30 minutes of daily physical activity.
- Further, other preventable conditions aside from smoking make up an additional 40 percent of our healthcare costs.
- In total, all of the above is related to 75 percent of our healthcare costs! All of which are linked to unhealthy lifestyle choices, including physical inactivity, diet, alcohol consumption and tobacco use. Further, 70 percent of American deaths are attributed to strokes, heart attacks, diabetes and cancer, all of which can be influenced significantly through lifestyle choices.
We need to stop making excuses for why we can't (or won't) live a healthy lifestyle. And, think about the message that we're sending to our children ...

TST Staffer Book RecommendationsMar 13th, 2009 | By Alex | Category: Book News, Fandom, Featured Articles
This month we have our AMAZING staffer Krystal recommending a book, and the book that she has picked is…..
"Poison Study" by Maria V. Snyder
It's the first in a trilogy.
Here is the Amazon link
and her website
I think there are a couple of different covers. It was actually originally released as an adult fiction novel, but was re-released recently as a YA novel.
Here is the summary from Maria's site:
"About to be executed for murder, Yelena is offered a reprieve. She'll eat the best meals, have rooms in the palace, and risk assassination by anyone trying to kill the Commander of Ixia. And so Yelena chooses to become a food taster. But the chief of security, leaving nothing to chance, deliberately feeds her Butterfly's Dust, and only by appearing for her daily antidote will she delay an agonizing death from the poison. As Yelena tries to escape her dilemma, disasters keep mounting. Rebels plot to seize Ixia and she develops magical powers she can't control. Her life's at stake again and choices must be made. But this time the outcomes aren't so clear!"

This article was first published in the Winter 2003 issue of Bible and Spade.
One of the most interesting questions about Old Testament history concerns the Exodus occurrence and who might have been the Pharaoh. An article in Archaeology and Biblical Research by J. LoMusio several years ago provided a well-reasoned argument, with considerable evidence that Moses lived during Egyptian Dynasty 18 in the 15th century BC (1989).
In this present article, I will bring LoMusio's information up-to-date, add additional details, and expand the debate beyond the usual discussions found in commentaries. Further, I will use current information about references to "Pharaoh's daughter" (Ex 2:5, 7, 9, 10; Acts 7:21; Heb 11:24) as a foundation for investigation. In so doing, I believe that a reasonable assumption can be made as to when the Exodus happened and who were some of the unnamed Egyptian personalities in the book of Exodus. However, I am sure that neither this article, nor LoMusio's, will answer many of the perplexing questions to everyone's satisfaction. However, one has to start someplace.
To put the discussion in perspective, it should be understood that there are two generally accepted propositions for the date of the Exodus. The first puts the Exodus in the 15th century BC; the other has the Exodus occurring 200 years later in the 13th century BC. Neither conservatives nor liberals hold one date over the other. Both dates have proponents in each ideological camp. However, the preponderance of scholarship sides with the opinion that "the general period that best fits most of the Biblical and extra-Biblical evidence is the first half of the thirteenth century" (LaSor, Hubbard, and Bush 1996:59).
Queen Hatshepsut with official Royal Beard.
Although the 13th century BC date (sometimes known as the "late" Exodus) may be the one accepted by the most of the scholarly community, a literal reading of the Old Testament places the Exodus in the middle part of the 15th century BC (referred to in some literature as the "early" Exodus). It is not the purpose of this article to detail how the two schools arrive at their conclusions. Interested readers can find a thorough and understandable discussion in John Davis' book, Moses and the Gods of Egypt (1986:16–40, available in the ABR Bookstore).
Suffice it to say, a 15th century BC date can be deduced from a literal reading of 1 Kings 6:1, supported by a corollary passage in Judges 11:26. Acknowledging (as most scholars do regardless of their opinion of the Exodus date) that Solomon began his reign about 970 BC, it can be mathematically concluded from 1 Kings 6:1 that the Exodus occurred around 1446/7 BC, or early in the second half of the 15th century BC.
Those who dismiss the 15th century BC ("early") date do so by discrediting the text. An example of their argument is:
The Old Testament, an ancient Near Eastern book, often uses numbers quite differently from a modern chronology. Thus the 480 years [in 1 Kings 6:1] may be understood as an "aggregate" or "symbolic number" (LsSor, Hubbard and Bush 1996:60).

The proponents of a 13th century BC ("late") Exodus believe their position is strengthened by the claim that there is little or no archaeological evidence for the Israelite presence in Canaan during the 15th century BC. This popular assumption has been successfully challenged by conservative archaeologists and Bible scholars, many of whose papers have been published on the pages of this journal. Again, it is not the intent of this article to review the literature regarding the two positions. But, Davis cuts to the heart the matter:
At stake here is the locus of authority. The Bible speaks very clearly to the issue of the date of the exodus and if these statements represent revelatory authority then they are reliable and should constitute the foundation for chronological thought. If these dates are not found to be reliable, then all biblical numbers and chronological notices can be regarded as suspect (1986:39).

If, as the Bible states, the Exodus was in the 15th century BC, what does Egyptian history tell us about the culture and personages of that era? Specifically, can we identify "Pharaoh's daughter" (Ex 2:5, 7, 9, 10; Acts 7:21; Heb 11:24), a person who seems critical to understanding the story and the timing?
Queen Hatshepsut of Dynasty 18. Was she Pharaoh's daughter? D. Hansen.
The 18th Dynasty
The 15th century BC was the setting in Egyptian history of the great Dynasty 18. Chart 1, Egyptian Dynasty 18, shows the Pharaohs of that dynasty and the approximate dates they ruled.1 The reader will note that 1446/7 BC, the Biblical date of the Exodus derived from a literal reading of 1 Kings 6:1, falls within the early reign of Amenhotep II. Amenhotep II was a particularly proud and boastful ruler. His personality corresponds with the Biblical portrayal of the Pharaoh with whom Moses dealt when he returned to Egypt from his Midianite sojourn. The Bible also reports that Moses was 80 years old (Ex 7:7; Acts 7:30) when he came back to Egypt immediately prior to the Exodus. Therefore, it can be mathematically calculated that Moses was born ca. 1526 BC during the reign of Thutmosis I.
Thutmosis I had a daughter, Hatshepsut, but no sons by his primary wife, Queen Ahmose. Little else is known about Hatshepsut's birth-date or her age at death. Thutmosis I did have sons, however, by secondary wives. One of those sons was Thutmosis II, the next Pharaoh. In accordance with a custom in the early years of Dynasty 18, Thutmosis II married his half-sister Hatshepsut, who had been born of the primary wife and queen, in order to legitimize his religious right to the throne (Robins 1993:26–27).
It is reasonable to assume that Hatshepsut married Thutmosis II shortly before he assumed the throne in 1517 BC. "Hatchepsut can have been no more than 15 years old when she married her brother and became consort" (Tyldesley 1996:96). Accordingly, Hatshepsut was born ca. 1533/2 (1517 + 15 = 1532). If Hatshepsut was born in 1533/2, she was six or seven years old when Moses was born ca. 1526 BC.
Egyptian records show that Thutmosis II and Hatshepsut had a daughter, but they had no sons. He did have a son by a secondary wife. This son, Thutmosis III, was to become the next Pharaoh. When Hatshepsut's husband/half-brother, Thutmosis II, died ca. 1504 BC, Hatshepsut was 29-30 years old. She then reigned as co-regent with her infant stepson, Thutmosis III. Thutmosis III's exact age when his father died is unrecorded:
but given that he [Thutmosis III] reigned over 50 years and that his mummy was not that of an elderly man, we can deduce that he was a young child or even a baby rather than a teenager (Tyldesley 1996:96).
but given that he [Thutmosis III] reigned over 50 years and that his mummy was not that of an elderly man, we can deduce that he was a young child or even a baby rather than a teenager (Tyldesley 1996:96).
The co-regency lasted 22 years until Hatshepsut died ca. 1483 BC after which time Thutmosis III assumed the sole leadership of Egypt and ruled for another 33 years.
An intriguing question is how did Hatshepsut assume power, keep it for so long and defy tradition, as well as why the male bureaucracy tolerated this aberration? There are numerous theories that try to answer that question. The most probable explanation is that she,
possessed a strong character and made the most of the power that had accrued to her as regent. On a practical level, we can imagine that when she became regent she carefully chose the officials who were to serve her (Robins 1993:47).
possessed a strong character and made the most of the power that had accrued to her as regent. On a practical level, we can imagine that when she became regent she carefully chose the officials who were to serve her (Robins 1993:47).
P. Clayton records that "Hatshepsut was a strong-willed woman who would not let anyone or anything stand in her way" (1994:104). Thutmosis II, her husband/half-brother, was known to be in poor health, frail, and "far from energetic" (Tyldesley 1996:82). She may have anticipated his early death and, at age 29 or 30, had ample time to prepare for taking the throne. Although she was supposed to only be co-regent with her stepson, her aspiration to become Pharaoh was soon apparent. By year seven of her reign she had abandoned the title and insignia of a queen and adopted the fivefold titulary and male costume of a king, including an official royal false beard (Carter 1994:105). She also began to assert kingly prerogatives by setting up obelisks and making offerings directly to gods (Robins 1993:46).
Moses, Hatshepsut and Dynasty 18
The Biblical description of how Moses was discovered along the banks of the Nile River by "Pharaoh's daughter" (Ex 2:3–10) is intriguing since it has parallels with the known character of Hatshepsut. In the Bible, the person who directed Moses' rescue from the Nile, and later adopted him, is always referred to as "Pharaoh's daughter" (Ex 2:5, 7, 9, 10; Acts 7:21; Heb 11:24). From the Bible we learn she had slaves and attendants. "Pharaoh's daughter" must have been an important, powerful, and capable woman to command people to do her bidding. If Hatshepsut was about six or seven years old when Moses was born, it could well be that she was, in fact, the "Pharaoh's daughter" of the Bible. It is conceivable that Pharaoh's daughter, even at age six, was very powerful. And, no one could have foreseen the enormous effect of her plucking a Hebrew baby from the Nile to become her new "toy." Further, a fascinating detail of how women of royal birth were titled in Dynasty 18 is provided by Robins (1993:26):
Women of royal birth [in the 18th Dynasty] can be identified by the use of the title 'king's [Pharaoh's] daughter', since there is no evidence in the 18th Dynasty of women who are known to have had non-royal parents being given this title. This rules out the possibility that this title was sometimes awarded to enhance the status of non-royal women.
Women of royal birth [in the 18th Dynasty] can be identified by the use of the title 'king's [Pharaoh's] daughter', since there is no evidence in the 18th Dynasty of women who are known to have had non-royal parents being given this title. This rules out the possibility that this title was sometimes awarded to enhance the status of non-royal women.
Hatshepsut was the sole child who survived past infancy of the Queen consort, Ahmose, and her Pharaoh father, Thutmosis I. Queen Ahmose gave Thutmosis I four children, three of whom died in their youth (LoMusio 1989:85). Thus, Hatshepsut was the only woman in 1526 BC who could have had the title "Pharaoh's daughter," the designation given in Exodus to the person who saved Moses and later adopted him.
The Exodus account (2:3–10) continues to describe how "Pharaoh's daughter" told Moses' sister to take him to a nursemaid who, it turns out, was Moses' natural mother. How long his mother cared for Moses is not recorded; however, Exodus 2:10 says "when the child grew older, she [Moses' mother] took him to Pharaoh's daughter and he became her son." In her penetrating look into modern Arab culture, Sandra Mackey writes "boys are breast-fed much longer than girls, often for as long as two to three years" (1987:127). It might be assumed that in ancient times a similar practice prevailed, especially if the nursemaid was the boy's mother who knew, once the boy was returned to "Pharaoh's daughter," she might never see him again. From this information it is conceivable that Moses may have lived with his natural Hebrew family for more than three years. This could help explain why Moses had empathy for the victim when he saw an Egyptian abusing a fellow Hebrew (Ex 2:11–12; Acts 7:25–27).
We have already concluded that if Hatshepsut was "Pharaoh's daughter" she was six or seven when Moses was found. Following this scenario, Moses would have been introduced into the royal house three or four years later and adopted by Hatshepsut when she was ten or eleven years of age.
Assuming Moses was the adopted son of "Pharaoh's daughter," he would have been raised in the Dynasty 18 royal harem along with other children of royal blood. Acts 7:22 states that "Moses was educated in all the wisdom of the Egyptians."
The dynastic Egyptian harem-palace served as...the 'Household of the Royal Children', the most prestigious school in the land. Here the young male royals...received the instruction which would prepare them for their future lives as some of the highest-ranking nobles in the land....Childhood networking in the royal harem must have been of crucial importance to those living in a state where everyone's career was dependent upon their relationship with the king (Tyldesley 1996:54–55).

Charles Aling (1981:73–74) has a description of the educational curriculum for royal children in Dynasty 18. He writes that teachers were selected from officials of the land who were favorites of the reigning king. Students would study hieroglyphic and other scripts, copying and memorizing lengthy lists of words and names. They studied the foreign languages of their world. Public speaking was considered important so it "received heavy attention during the years of formal education." The ability to write well was also highly valued. If young Moses was Hatshepsut's adopted son he was educated in the royal harem of Dynasty 18. That would corroborate the Biblical description of his education, competency to dialogue before a Pharaoh even though he claimed he was not a gifted speaker (Ex 4:10) and his capability to record the first five books of the Old Testament.
Chisled out and destroyed image of Hatshepsut. Tyldesley, J.
Hatshepsut died ca. 1483 BC and Thutmosis III reigned alone for another 33 years. Whether Hatshepsut died a natural death, or was murdered, is disputed by Egyptologists. What is known is that many of Hatshepsut's monuments and statues were defaced or destroyed after her departure. Her name was erased from cartouches across the land and replaced with the names of her father or husband/half-brother (LoMusio 1989:87). This would indicate that Thutmosis III acquiesced to removing her memory, understandable if he had had to play a secondary role to her during the first 22 years of his reign. Davis agrees with this interpretation and writes that,
the vengeance sought upon Moses was not due only to Moses' murder of an Egyptian official, but also to his possible association with Hatshepsut (1986:42).
the vengeance sought upon Moses was not due only to Moses' murder of an Egyptian official, but also to his possible association with Hatshepsut (1986:42).
A Chronology of Moses and Dynasty 18
Chart 2 is a chronology of this period and it reveals some interesting information. The Bible reports Moses fled from Egypt when he was 40 years old (Acts 7:23). Based on the chronology depicted in Chart 2, Moses would have been 40 years old in the year 1486/5 BC. This was two or three years prior to the time Hatshepsut disappeared from the scene. If Hatshepsut was "Pharaoh's daughter," it could well be that God provided an excuse for Moses to leave Egypt prior to Thutmosis III's reprisals. Another possibility is that Moses and Thutmosis III may well have known each other while growing up in the royal harem. Perhaps, if Moses had been in Egypt at the time of Hatshepsut's death, Thutmosis III would have feared Moses might have contested the throne and taken revenge on him.
Another interesting aspect of the period is that Thutmosis III continued his father's and grandfather's agenda of expansive construction efforts. As Tyldesley reports, Thutmosis I's reign "saw extensive and innovative building progammes at all major Theban sites" (1996:71). Aling is even more direct: "Thutmosis III was a great builder...." (1983:98). Of the monuments that attest to Thutmosis III's deeds are two obelisks found at Heliopolis. One of these, popularly known as "Cleopatra's Needle," can now be seen in Central Park, behind the Metropolitan Museum of Art, in New York City (why this obelisk is associated with Cleopatra, ca. 50 BC or 1800 years after Thutmosis III, is not clear). From the tomb of Rekhmire, vizier or a high officer under Thutmosis III, paintings show foreign slaves making bricks. Aling contends these are the only depictions of brickmaking in all the hundreds of tomb paintings from the New Kingdom period, a time that includes the reign of Ramses II of the next dynasty, 19 (1983:71). If Hatshepsut was "Pharaoh's daughter," then these building programs were ongoing at the time Moses was raised in Egypt; another element that supports the Biblical story.
Moses and the Pharaoh
Moses fled Egypt at age 40 (ca. 1486 BC) and lived in Midian for 40 years (Acts 7:30) until God called him to return to Egypt. "Moses was 80 years old...when they [he and Aaron] spoke to Pharaoh" (Ex 7:7). Therefore, Moses returned to Egypt to speak with Pharaoh to "let my people go" (Ex 5:1; 7:16; 8:1, 20, 21; 9:1, 13; 10:3) ca. 1446 BC, the date we derived for the Exodus from a literal reading of 1 Kings 6:1.
Thutmosis III died ca. 1450, and his son, Amenhotep II, had ascended the throne. It is interesting that God told Moses, "Go back to Egypt for all the men who wanted to kill you are dead" (Ex 4:19). If the chronology proposed in this article is correct, Moses would have returned to Egypt in 1446 BC, about three or four years into the reign of the new pharaoh, Amenhotep II. If this was the case, how were Moses and Aaron able to gain face-to-face access to the new Pharaoh? From the reconstruction of Hatshepsut's family presented above, it can be seen that Moses, the adopted son of Hatshepsut, was Amenhotep II's step-uncle! In addition, it is possible that royal men and women who were raised in the palace harem remembered Moses and facilitated his access. As has already been pointed out, political "net-working" among the young men ed-ucated in the harem was common (Tyl-desley 1996:54–55). At that time the upper tier of society was limited, being no more than two or three thousand people (Tyldesley 1996:41). Therefore, the extended family raised in the royal harem were well acquainted and undoubtedly remembered Moses as a young man. Exodus 11:3 seems to confirm that possibility when it says that when Moses returned he, "was highly regarded in Egypt by Pharaoh's officials..."

At this point, it is interesting to put my proposal for Moses' life over Dynasty 18 and correlate the dates to various Egyptian personages. A careful review of Chart 3 shows that the Biblical account and the Pharaohs of Dynasty 18 fit very neatly.
Dynasty 18 and Dynasty 19 Compared
Chart 3 contrasts two Exodus theories, the 15th century/18th Dynasty ("early") and 13th century/19th Dynasty ("late") scenarios. The Biblical events discussed above fit very well into Dynasty 18, the 15th century. However, the reader may recall that most scholars date the Exodus to Dynasty 19 and Ramses II is reputed to have been the Pharaoh of the Exodus. A literature review will reveal an immediate problem with the Dynasty 19 proposal in that there are no records of a strong-willed woman, like Hatshepsut, to meet the criteria to be titled "Pharaoh's daughter."
A quick look at Chart 3 reveals that there is amore significant problem with the Dynasty 19/13th century model: timing. For example, if Ramses II was the Pharaoh of the Exodus, as most proponents of this theory contend, Moses was born 80 years earlier than Ramses II's reign. However, doing so puts Moses' birth in the previous dynasty, 18. There is little to commend a theory that Moses, raised in a Dynasty 18 royal harem, would have been welcomed into the palace of a Dynasty 19 Pharaoh.
To try to overcome that problem and make all 80 years of Moses' life fit into Dynasty 19 (which began in 1295 BC), the Exodus would have to be dated to 1215 BC (1295–80 = 1215). However, in 1215 BC Ramses II would have reigned for 64 years. This does not comport with the Biblical description of God telling Moses that those who seek Moses' life are dead (Ex 4:19). In this construction, Moses would have fled to Midian during the reign of Ramses II. This then begs the question of who was seeking Moses' life?
An attempt to fit the first 80 years of Moses' life into Dynasty 19 introduces an even bigger problem. Ramses II was succeeded in ca. 1213 BC by his son, Merneptah, who ruled for ten years. In the third or fourth year of Merneptah's reign he campaigned in Palestine. Merneptah left a stele recording his military successes. On this stele he referred to the defeat of Israelites and implied that Israel was an important society/nation already settled in Canaan. In order to compute the date of the Exodus if Israel had been settled in Canaan by the time of Merneptah's campaign, it is necessary to add the 40 years the Israelites were in the desert to a date of about 1209 BC. Then, another seven years must be added to the 40 years in order to account for the period of the conquest (Jos 14:7, 10). Thus, the time from Merneptah's victory over the Israelites in Canaan (ca. 1209 BC) to the time of the Exodus was, at a minimum, 47 years. This would place the Exodus in 1256 BC and, 40 years prior to that in 1296 BC, would have been when Moses fled to Midian. This date is during Dynasty 18. If this scenario is followed, Moses was born 40 years before, ca. 1336 BC, which is squarely in the previous dynasty, 18. This returns us to the question of how did Moses have access to the throne? So, in spite of how one attempts to harmonize the Biblical description of Moses' life with Dynasty 19 Pharaohs, problems abound.
In constructing the scenario in Chart 3 for Dynasty 19, it was assumed that Ramses II was the Pharaoh of the Exodus and Moses spoke with him in the first year of his reign. This was necessary to account for the 40 years the Israelites spent in the desert and the seven years necessary for the conquest, all to have occurred prior to Merneptah's reign.
Although Aling (1983:73) cautions his readers that care must be exercised in identifying the famous Hatshepsut with "Pharaoh's daughter," the parallels between the Biblical account and Egyptian Dynasty 18 history and culture are very attractive. The fact that the title "Pharaoh's daughter" is a title reserved for very few women narrows the number of persons to whom the Bible could refer, and Hatshepsut is one of the few who meets those criteria. Other facts and customs of Dynasty 18 seem to support the Biblical description of everyday life during the time the Bible infers the Exodus took place. We may never know for sure if our conclusions are correct; however, I find more compelling evidence that the Exodus occurred in the 15th century during the Egyptian Dynasty 18, ca. 1446 BC, than for any theory of a later, 13th century date.

I am convinced Hatshepsut at age 14 married Moses at age 7 who became
Thutmoses 2. Hat. was in charge of Moses as he grew up & began to rule at age 21 about 1504 BC. He was also Senemut, the vizier of Hat., named
that when he was 7 or married to her. When Moses understood the
depth of his jewish ancestry, he stepped down as Thut.2 & remained just
Senemut - vizier. Thut had officially DIED, but Moses - Senemut was still
alive. In real life Senemut did "die" after Thut.2, but before Hat. was
deposed by --- Moses' SON by a concubine - Thut.3 whom Hat. had married
after Moses insisted he be named Thut.3 at age one after he left Egypt.

I thought the scholarly consensus now was that Amenhotep II was responsible for defacing the works of Hatshepsut? This does not have much of an impact on the article, which is excellent by the way. Mostly, it would imply that Amenhotep II was bitter about Hatshepsut because of her association with Moses, possibly before and after the Exodus.
Dear TRN,
I am not sure what the "scholarly consensus" might be on this topic, but all the books referenced in the article that address this issue state that it was Thutmoses III, with whom she co-reigned for many years, as the one who might have defaced the monuments. As he assumed the throne as the only ruler, the assumption is that he probably wanted to remove reference to her so that her memory would not detract from his leadership. However, that Amenhotep was the culprit is also a possibility; but, one of which I was not aware at the time of my research.

Good article!
Maybe "Pharaohs daughter" was Neferu-Ptah or her sister Sobekneferu the daughters of the Pharaoh Amenemhet III in the 13th Dynasty.
I have believed since the 1980's that the length of Egyptian chronology is off many years and perhaps many decades, centurys even! We know that Pharaohs would fabricate and exaggerate almost every battle to there favor and so did other empires. It was common place to make your culture older than the neighboring culture. A kinda we've been here longer than you. They would lengthen there reign many years from what it actualy was, so that they could better immortalize theirselves. I think they overlapped many times as well, and even in some cases Pharaohs co-reigned together, perhaps an aging Pharaoh and a young son... They thought they were Gods and they always tried to be bigger and better than the previous ruler.
In saying that if you look at the whole chronology of Egyptian Dynasty's what truly fits the best with Pharaoh and his army being wiped out, would have been just before the Hykos period. This would have ultimatly left Egypt defenseless. Leaving the door wide open for "foreign rulers" to take over, cause the whole area knew that Israel's God had delivered them from Pharaoh and his army, and that they were lying at the bottom of the Red Sea! As was told by Rahab in the book of Joshua (2:10). This also solves the mystery of how the Hykos easily took Egypt.
The Egyptian chronology must start after the flood in the 25th or 24th century BC.
God Bless you and your ministry, I love it.

I wrote a paper in 2007 (unpublished) documenting my own analysis of the Exodus, which reaches essentially the same conclusions as Carter, except for Hatshepsut being 6 years old when adopting Moses. The chronology of Egypt is not on the solid ground that Eyptologists affirm, as Dr. Randall Price has noted. After talking with Dr. Ronald Allen, Hebrew scholar at Dallas Theological Seminary, it became clear that even "conservative scholars" have been unduly influenced, not only by BAR, but also by Josephus' view that the Hyksos were Israel in Egypt. (Unfortunately, Dr. Allen's commentary on Numbers, which was his Th.D. thesis, shows much embarrassment over the numbers in Numbers.) This view rejects the biblical chronology as Truth. However, I think that the Alphabet, which originated in Egypt in the 19th century BC. is really the "Smoking Gun" for Israel in Egypt, which is consistent with the Masoritic chronology. But academia will decry any interpretation that proves the Exodus.

Excellent article and deeply appreciated...
Imagination is a key ingredient of any scientific exploration, something that agnostic scientists hide in an illusion of knowledge.
Hatshepsut was preparing Moses to become Pharaoh. When Mose's identity was revealed, Thutmosis III was determined to destroy any record of this attempt and Hatshepsut herself. When Moses killed the Egyptian his identity was exposed. Thutmosis's hatred of Hatshepsut was aggravated by this outrageous attempt. The hatred and shame, immensely strong, was inherited, in a lesser degree, by Amenhotep II. When Moses returned and faced the Pharaoh, Amenhotep II, the waters of hatred had abated. This allowed Moses to interface the Pharaoh, and the plagues began.

Thutmose IV is recorded as having cleared sand from the buried Sphinx. Why? (Exodus 14:21 the answer) The strong east wind blew over the Red Sea into Egypt. Amenhotep II did not clear the sand from the Sphinx, so the pharoah of the Exodus was before Amenhotep II. Thus Thutmose III is the pharaoh of the Exodus and queen Hatshepsut was the princess who saved baby Moses from her father Thutmose I. Hatshapsut took away Thutmose II's power cause he was sickly.
Lujack Skylark - 10/3/2010 9:33:54 PM
Are you saying Lujack that sand covering the Sphinx was caused at the time of the Exodus and we should rule out all pharoah's after Thutmose IV being pharoah of the Exodus since he cleared the sands caused by the east winds and the pharoah who drowned at the time of the Exodus must be before Thutmose IV?

I have to believe in your account of Queen Hatshepsut and Moses. Also I have to say that Queen Hatshepsut kept herself in power because he was waiting for Moses to return in order to hand over the rulership of Egypt.
I believe that Hatshepsut was the daughter of pharaoh who retrieved Moses from the Nile, and that the following hypothesis is feasible.
"Thutmose I became pharaoh in the year 1,524 BCE. The new king decreed that all male Hebrew infants be killed. The following year, in 1,523 BCE, his twelve-year-old daughter Hatshepsut rescued the infant Moses from the Nile River with the intention of raising him as a member of her household. When Thutmose I died in 1,518 BCE, his son Thutmose II became pharaoh and his half-sister Hatshepsut became his wife and queen. In the second year of his reign, according to inscriptions on block 287 from the Chapelle Rouge, Thutmose II presided over a festival of Amen during which Hatshepsut was recognized as a pharaoh, circa 1516 BCE. During their coreign, Hatshepsut produced no male heir with Thutmose II, but he did sire a son, Thutmose III, with a secondary wife. When Thutmose II died in 1,504 BCE, Hatshepsut continued as pharaoh, at first sharing her reign with her step-son Thutmose III, who, being less than two years old, was too young to rule. Seven years later, in 1,498 BCE, Hatshepsut assumed a masculine public identity and reigned as king of Egypt for the next seventeen years, with Thutmose III serving in a subordinate role. Sometime after her recognition as pharaoh, Hatshepsut elevated Senenmut to be her chief steward (top official), but Senenmut disappeared from history in 1,483 BCE, about a year before Hatshepsut's death and at precisely the same time that the biblical Moses fled to Midian after murdering an Egyptian. Did Moses kill Senenmut and then have to flee from Hatshepsut's wrath before returning to Egypt forty years later as the prophet Moses? The chronological correlations and historical details do allow such questions." ... excerpted from my book, Sacred Chronology of the Hebrew Kings.
Dan Bruce - 7/11/2012 7:14:39 AM
I agree Queen Hatshepsut is the princess Hatshepsut who saved the infant Moses whom her father Thutmose I gave the order for all Hebrew male infants to be killed.

The Responsibilities of an Ideal StudentThe purpose of education is to produce ideal persons to face the responsibilities of the future. This aim can be achieved only when the students are sincere and they acquire the education in the real sense. Just copying a few questions and passing the examination is not an education. A student can never be educated until and unless he does not put his heart and should to the cause of education. A student is a person, who devotes himself to the pursuits of knowledge and learning. It is therefore, the first and foremost duty of aj ideal student to seek knowledge. The pursuit of knowledge demands hard work and full devotion. Unfortunately, the students do not realize their duties. They have confined the education. Their greatest purpose is to get good grade in the examination by hook or by crook. They adopt all the foul means to get through the examinations. The ideal student enriches himself with knowledge. In practical life only those students come out with best colours, who had acquire knowledge.
An ideal student enjoys learning. He goes deep and deep in search of the knowledge. He is not a bookworm. He knows that a healthy body is necessary for healthy mind. He takes interest in all the activities that promote his physical health. He goes to the play ground with the same pleasure and enthusiasm with which he studies in the library. An ideal student is not unsocial. He loves his fellow students and takes part in all the collective activities.
The ideal student respects and honours his teachers. He knows the place of teachers, who are opening the gate of glories for him. He is humble and obedient. The more he learns from his teachers, the more grateful he is to them. The more knowledge he gets, the more humble he becomes. An ideal student is not a frog in a well but a person with greater visions and ideals. He is regular and punctual. He does not participate in adverse and negative activities. He confines himself to his studies and task. He does not waste his time in useless deeds. He does not keep association with such elements whose purpose is to damage the cause of education. He believes in simple and plain living. He is kind and generous.

Early autopsy results show RI woman, boy found dead in car suffered no trauma, diseases
WARWICK, R.I. – The Rhode Island Medical Examiners Office says autopsies on a woman and young boy found dead in a car in Warwick over the weekend showed no signs of trauma or disease.
Thirty-nine-year-old Kathleen Frink of Warwick and her 3-year-old son, Ryan, were discovered Saturday night in a car at the Fairfax Village apartment complex. Police say they may have been in the parked and idling car for hours.
Officials say they will be getting results of toxicology tests in a few weeks that may show how the pair died.
Warwick police say the car may have been parked at the complex since noon Saturday and no one called authorities until 8 p.m. Frink didn't live at the complex, and it's not clear why the car was parked there.

You can and should go further than this if you are designing a cluster system to scale up to large node counts. NTP is wrong time synchronization model for compute nodes. It frequently wakes up, and the best you can hope for is that it does nothing. If it does do something, it's jerking your clock forward and back. The model you want is pretty much timing a foot race: you don't care if it starts exactly at noon, but you do care if someone is adjusting the stopwatch while the race is being run. (Doh, we are supposed to only use automotive analogies. OK, substitute "car race" above.) Our implementation of time synchronization is simpler to understand and more suitable. If the wall-clock time drifts far enough for a human to notice, it's slammed toward the correct time by a full unit. That keeps the timestamps on log entries usable (it turns out users hate compute nodes being five minutes wrong, who woulda' guessed) while letting you trust the microsecond clock when doing diagnostics. There isn't any guessing "was that 10 millisecond gap real, or was NTP mucking with me". The clock is either stable or has a huge jump e.g half or full second. We put the time synchronization in the remote process starting system to avoid an extra daemon and extra work. That system already gets timestamps from the control messages, and knows which connection is the cluster master. (You only want to adjust the clock from one head node.) SSH is slow and expensive for internal cluster process creation. It does more than you want and less than you need. It takes several seconds to initiate a connection, and always encrypts. There are good reasons to do this on a long distance connection, but not within a cluster. Then when it does start a process, it's not precise. It just passes a text string to a shell. It doesn't even do easy things to make certain that the application run is the same as what would run on the originating host.

A look at the craziest tax write-offs
(MoneyWatch) It's hard to think there's anything funny about taxes when you're under a mountain of paperwork, but CBS News contributor and analyst Mellody Hobson has a little comic relief for taxpayers. In all her research about taxes, she came across some fairly ridiculous write offs the IRS has allowed -- and some crazy things people have tried and failed to slip by the IRS.
First, you'd be amazed about what people try to write off concerning their pets, and it's no wonder why -- they're expensive. According to the ASPCA, dogs and cats both cost over $1,000 a year. There was the case of the woman who claimed an unusually high amount of medical expenses for a dependent, but she didn't have a spouse or any children. Turns out the "dependent" was her dog. Her accountant set her straight that if it's covered in fur, you can't claim it as a dependent. In general, pet expenses are not deductable, but there are a couple surprising exceptions.
- Avoid the most common tax mistakes to get a faster refund
- How (not) to get audited
- See more tips in our special tax section
For instance, you can deduct expenses related to a foster animal if the goods or services are solely for the foster pet and if the organization is a registered non-profit. That means it has 501(c)(3) tax status. Also, expenses exceeding $250 may require a letter from the organization. In a landmark tax court case, a California woman was able to deduct 90 percent of the $12,000 in deductions she claimed for the 70 cats she fostered. Seventy cats. But this wasn't your average crazy cat lady -- she was working with a legitimate charity.
Another case in which you can deduct dog expenses? If you own your own business and your dog doubles as a security system. But don't push it: You can't deduct expenses for your Chihuahua. If you're going to claim you employ Fido as a guard dog, you need to be a little bit afraid of him yourself -- we're talking pit bulls and German Shepherds, not a Labrador who greets you at the door with a squeaky toy. You can't deduct the cost of the dog itself, but related expenses -- like food and medical bills -- can qualify. The craziest detail? You can depreciate your guard dog over its lifespan as determined by a local breeder. Remember, as with everything tax-related, documentation and receipts are crucial.
Some people want to get paid for love, and sometimes they actually can. You know that loaf of a boyfriend or girlfriend? They could add value come tax time. To claim a nonrelative as a dependent, he or she had to live in your home for the full tax year and make less than $3,800 in gross income for 2012. You also generally must provide more than half of the person's financial support, and he or she can't be claimed as a dependent by anyone else.
There have been a couple of completely ridiculous claims in this arena, like the man who tried to deduct money spent on his mistress as a business expense. There is another story about a man whose accountant asked him and his wife about the mortgage interest deduction on their condo in Utah. The deduction was legitimate but his wife didn't know about the condo, where he'd set up his mistress. It may have been the last time they filed a joint return.
We recently tied up awards season with the Academy Awards, and one thing most movie stars have in common is that they aren't hard to look at. A lot of aspiring actors and actresses are tempted to write off plastic surgery, but just because you incur an expense for business reasons doesn't mean it qualifies as a deduction.
Cosmetic surgery is generally not deductible because it's for aesthetic reasons. To qualify as a medical deduction, the procedure must be medically necessary, meaning it was prescribed by a physician. So a nose job could qualify if you are repairing a deviated septum. Remember, all your medical expenses, including any allowable plastic surgeries, must come to more than 7.5 percent of your adjusted gross income before you can claim them.
To qualify as a business expense, you have to prove the surgery is related to your job performance, and there is one infamous case of plastic surgery satisfying this requirement. An exotic dancer with the stage name "Chesty Love" had her breasts augmented to a 56FF and then a 56N. After the IRS ruled that her surgeries were personal expenses, she appealed, citing her surge in income post surgery.
Four years after she filed, a judge eventually ruled that the implants could be deducted, comparing them to work clothes and uniforms, which are allowable only if they satisfy a two-step test:
1 - Required as a condition of employment
2 - Unsuitable for everyday use
Considering Chesty Love's new assets weighed in at ten pounds apiece and she would have taken them "off" after work if possible, they were considered "props" that could, in fact, be deducted.
One final crazy write-off: A young Amish man deducted his buggy. At first blush, this seems to be a completely legitimate write-off -- it's for business purposes. But the accountant looked closer and saw that the buggy had been outfitted with a velvet interior, kick plates, dash lights, speedometer, hydraulic brakes and dimmer switches. This Amish boy had completely pimped his buggy, spending over $3,500 instead of the average of about $2,700. The accountant ended up allowing him to deduct a portion of the buggy, minus the tinted windows.

Applying Representation
|Introduction | Double Ferris Wheel | Classroom Practice | Representation in Action | Classroom Checklist | Your Journal
In the previous sections, you considered several different types of representation, reflected on how you as a teacher can expand students' use of representations, and explored your own use of representations as you solved a problem and considered related points.
Now that you are familiar with the Standard and some of its aspects, we'd like you to apply it to a high school mathematics problem about Ferris wheels. The problem connects trigonometric functions and their equations and graphs. Note that there is a close relation between trigonometric functions and circles -- so much so that some texts refer to them as circular functions. We will use the term trigonometric functions.
As you work on the problem, pay close attention to the role of representations both in the solution of the problem and in the general development of understanding of trigonometric functions. Then view the video of the class and consider how you would help students work with various forms of representation to further develop their understanding of these functions.

New School Taxes Harder to Find on Election Day
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - Minnesota voters overwhelmingly voted to renew school levies on their property taxes, but were less enthusiastic about paying more.
The Minnesota School Boards Association reports voters approved nearly 80 percent of operating levy questions on the ballot Tuesday.
Spokesman Greg Abbott says 58 of the 114 school districts who went to their voters asked them to renew existing levies. Of those, 57 were approved. Only voters in the Rocori school district turned aside a renewal.
However, many districts put several questions to their voters, giving them the option of both renewing a levy and voting to raise their taxes.
For example, voters in the Anoka-Hennepin district approved a renewal, narrowly approved additional money for technology but rejected new money for future district expenses.

It's Canada Book Day today (also World Book Day and Copyright Day, or International Day of the Book) and Library and Archives Canada has posted a note about searching its Electronic Collection. There are some British Columbia digitized books there – and even among the dry government reports included are some research gems, like the Canada. Royal Commission on Indian Affairs. Report of the Royal Commission on Indian Affairs for the Province of British Columbia. — Victoria : Printed by the Acme Press, 1916.
The Library and Archives Canada Electronic Collection offers a search by title, subject, etc. and also a full text search. Publications are not always in the most readable format, but many are in easily downloadable .pdfs.
I quite like this publication, a Vancouver Tourist Association booklet c. 1905, full of photographs and ads. Library and Archives Canada has some of the book covers from its collection on Flickr, including this. Specially attractive to me inside was the ad for this Victoria hotel, the Dominion, very convenient location, across from Victoria's Carnegie Library (1904), convenient to "free busses" (still is convenient), but alas, they welcomed tourists, but only "business men". If the name of this hotel rings a bell from your family research, some of the hotel's registers are in the BC Provincial Archives (CA BCA MS-1148)

[Illinois] CABPN Workshop Nov.7,2012 - Chemical Analysis and Imaging of Seeds, Grains, and Plant Tissue
Published on
From the Chemical Imaging and Structures Laboratory (CISL) website (http://www.chemimage.illinois.edu/):
The Chemical Imaging and Structures Laboratory, headed by Professor Rohit Bhargava, focuses on both research and education in combining spectroscopic and structural information to understand biochemical processes and materials. Our activities include developing novel technologies for spectroscopic imaging, formulating advanced numerical processing methods, providing objective methods in histopathology and understanding polymer composites. Reflecting the interdisciplinary nature of the work, the laboratories are located in the Beckman Institute for Advanced Science and Technology, Micro and Nanotechnology Laboratory and Carle Foundation Hospital at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.
The central theme of our research is the development of novel chemical imaging technology and structures that can be employed to detect, diagnose and understand living and non-living materials' structure. Scientific areas of particular interest include cancer pathology and progression, polymer composites, foodgrains and cultural artefacts. Imaging technology used includes optical (spectroscopic imaging), material (probes) and development of novel algorithms for information extraction from large imaging data sets. Understanding tissue structure includes the analysis of human samples, engineered cell and tissue cultures and well as microfabricated materials. Please use the links above to view more information about a particular area of research.
We are grateful for the support provided by the National Institutes of Health (NCI and NIBIB R01 awards and other sub-awards), National Science Foundation (CHE and DMR), Department of Defense (Prostate and Breast Cancer Programs), United Soybean Board, Grainger Foundation and the University of Illinois.
Matthew V. Schulmerich, Department of Defense Postdoctoral Fellow, Department of Bioengineering, UIUC
"I am a big believer that spectroscopy and quantitative imaging tools can play a critical role in the clinical workflow associated with all stages of pathology. By combining instrumentation developed for specific needs and focusing efforts on quantification, my research aims at aiding progress against human disease. With a background in analytical chemistry and an expertise in Raman spectroscopy, I have been involved in several projects (links are below) with this goal in mind. Raman spectroscopy is a very nice 'hammer', with almost an endless number of 'nails'. But any technique by itself will only fill-in parts of the puzzle. I am working towards developing my expertise in multi-modal approaches. I am always interested in new collaborations and expanding the methods I have been involved in developing. "

Robyn Grady
Robyn Grady
In junior high, however, Robyn hit a stumbling block-a disheartening grade of one out of ten for a book review. Confused and hurt, she asked her one-hundred-and-thirty-year-old English teacher why she received such a low mark. The wizened schoolmarm sniffed, "You obviously had a senior do it for you." Thankfully Robyn's business teacher was a honey.
Following a fifteen-year career behind the scenes in television, Robyn knew the time was right to pursue her dream of becoming a published author. With thirteen contest finals in 2006, she was taken on by a New York agent and sold in a matter of weeks, first to Silhouette Desire, then Modern Heat (Presents) with a two book deal. She is currently writing her fifth manuscript and looking forward to her first online read appearing on eHarlequin, her favorite cyber place to hang out.
Robyn lives with her own modern-day hero on Australia's Sunshine Coast with their three little princesses, as well as two poodles and a cat called Tinkie. She has majors in English literature and psychology and loves new shoes, worn jeans, visits to the theatre and lunches at picturesque Moffat Beach with her writer friends. Visit her website above and don't forget to say hi! She'd love to hear from you.

W – Oilers 3, Sens 1 – Game 9 – 2013-10-19 @ 12:00 PM MST – SNETW
So I won't doom and gloom this one too much. The Oilers are in a poor spot in the standings… sounds like the Corsi war is slowly being lost. The Oilers started just over 50% in the first few games, but as of late are now are around 45%, in the last couple of games (stats courtesy of ROMULUS APOTHEOSIS on Lowetide). I'm not going to concern myself with those numbers too much, as it is just two games, and we should expect that the numbers will fluctuate. The first 6 games were pretty much hovering around 50%. I'm starting to realize I have to buy into this whole Corsi thing and advanced stats in general a bit more, as voodoo as they are. I feel like Craig MacTavish, refusing to wear a Jofa bucket because it might crush my beautiful curly locks. I'm not going to focus on them too much, but I definitely will pay more attention.
I think this new "swarm defense" is SORT of working. What I've observed is it seems to be prone to breakdowns, very easily. Or at least, the Oilers execution of that is prone to breakdowns. Guys are often left alone in very dangerous scoring positions.. I don't really like it at all, and have started to wonder how much longer it will last before the Oilers go to a more basic approach like zone defense. I suspect that Dallas Eakins will cling onto this like MacTavish clinging onto the no-helmet stance, and me refusing to fully buy into these newfangled advanced stats. He did seem to buckle a little bit, as he admitted recently that on the plane he really considered changing things up. I am thinking what that means is dumping the swarm. I want to make one thing straight though.. I think it's probably a good system. I just don't think it's something these players are grasping well enough. So.. what's the over under on how long until Eakins switches to zone defense? You don't want to panic too much, but I think it's clear that the Oilers grip on man-to-man defense last year was terrible. Apparently Detroit uses the swarm. I'm not sure if they still do, but what made me believe that is this quote from Kyle Quincey:
"In the D zone, I'd never heard of 'the swarm' before I got here," said defenseman Kyle Quincey, who spent 2005-08 in the Wings organization, left for almost four seasons, then returned at the trade deadline last year. "He never talked about that eight years ago. But if you look around on video, all the teams do it now. He's definitely a very good systems coach. He's definitely challenged me to a better player, for sure. A lot of skating in this system."
We all know the Oilers have been trying to follow the Red Wings model for quite some time.
It's the wee hours of the morning.. forward lines are quite likely, as these were Friday's practice lines. Not sure about the D-lines or starting goaltender, but I assume there won't be changes there.

Here's a stupid question. I'm heading to OCS in August, but I'm a homeowner and trying to figure out what to do with my house and all my stuff. Will the Navy pack/move/store all my stuff during OCS? What about during IWBC?
In general, does anyone have advice for what to do with my house? I'm reluctant to rent, since I've heard horror stories about bad tenants trashing houses. I have enough cash in the back to make mortgage payments for a while, so I was considering just letting the house sit empty while I'm at OCS and then putting it on the market when I get down to Pensacola for IWBC. This assumes, of course, that the Navy will store my stuff while I'm in Florida, hence my question above.
Thanks in advance for any advice/information.
