Level 32 belongs to episode number 3 of Bubble Witch 3 (Shaken Shack). Here are some tips to get over it without difficulty. Comment below and leave your own tricks to get over level 32 level of Bubble Witch 3.
- In game mode "Release the Owls" keep in mind that you do not have to destroy any type of ball and you have to focus on saving the owls, so whenever you can save an owl even if you only destroy three balls do it!
- In game mode "Clear All" you must focus on destroy the largest number of balls but not only exploiting them. Look for the weak points of the screens and you will get up much faster.
- Check Nero's Power because it's very useful and if we are attentive many times we will forget that we already have it availableya que es muy útil y sino estamos atentos en muchas ocasiones se nos olvidará que ya lo tenemos disponible.

5-5-2011 Safeco Field
Batting practice was extremely slow. The Mariners were completely ignoring everyone in the centerfield 'Pen area. Even friendly shout-outs from the fans like, "Hey, how are you doing today?" were blown off from them. I don't know if they were all having a bad day or it was just one of those unfriendly days. So I decided to line up at the stairs early. The Mariners didn't have anyone that could hit a baseball to the centerfield seats anyway. As soon as I lined up someone hit a monster bomb towards the vistors bullpen. The ball clanged off the bullpen bench overhang and shot right at a group of people. They all scrambled for it and somehow it got loose and rolled underneath the staircase. I darted around the stairs and gave chase but I was immediatly blind-sided by some middle-aged man that wanted the baseball more than I did. He shouldered me into the wall, and knocked my hat off in the struggle as he kicked the ball from my reaching grasp. I wanted to give chase and spear tackle him into the nearest brick wall. I was furious. I said a few choice words and decided it wasn't worth it. If I engaged in physical violence with this shmuck I'd probably get thrown out of Safeco Field. That just wasn't my style.
Before the horn blew to allow us into the rest of the stadium I did witness a baseball hit into the seats on the first base side. So at the last moment I changed my decision to go up the centerfield steps instead of the bullpen stairs that led into left field/3rd base area. It paid off too. Well, I did have to run the entire outfield concourse and then chase down three sections. After that I diligently scoured the seats until I found the baseball. A security guard was watching me the entire time and smiled when I found the ball. I was lucky the baseball didn't get free from a seat support then roll all the way to the bottom of the section. At least I got my cardio in for the day.
I lined up behind these two Texas Rangers. I could not identify them and I was hoping for an overthrow. The ball sailed high and to the left and it landed about six rows up when it happened. I jumped over the first two rows and saw that some girl was running farther up then she had to. Gravity is my best friend. The ball just trickled down to the row I was standing in and I reached over the seats to scoop it up. "I didnt know which row it was in." The girl said with a laugh.
After that I decided to hang around the Rangers dugout.
After batting practice concluded the Rangers pitching coach had a baseball in his hand. He was looking to toss it someone. So I gave him an upnod and sure enough he tossed me the baseball. It was the nastiest, most dirtiest baseball I have ever put my hands on. It also smelled of some kind of chemical. Maybe rosin. Im not sure what was on the baseball but it made my backpack stink for days.
Here's another picture of the baseball out of focus this time.
After that I waited for the game to start. I even asked one of the security guards if I could stand in her section and wait on the warmup baseball. She told me I could stand in row 12 and back. She then proceeded to tell me it would be impossible to get a warmup baseball because the Rangers don't always throw the ball into the crowd. And sometimes they leave the field on the other end of the dugout. And sometimes they give the ball to a kid. I just stood there and stared blankly at the roof. I even noticed a little trap door while she was talking.
The trap door is the little white speck in the middle of the picture. It was very interesting. Anyway. After being denied by the Rangers on the warmup baseball I took my seat in the outfield and patiently waiting on a home run ball that never came my way. I keep telling myself that If I sit out there long enough I will be the guy that the baseball comes directly to.

Strawberry Shortcake Dream Dress
Added Jun 12, 2010
by nuiwida23
Portland, Maine,...
What a delightful surprise, to love this dress much more than I anticipated! Allow me to list its lovable qualities: it's pink! and it's comfy! and its just so darn cute! I have worn this exact outfit on more than one rainy spring day…bright colors help with the gloom. It was a fairly straightforward pattern, the most difficult part was attaching the lining at the "v" in the neck. I added a pocket for practicality. You would never have known, but the fabric is from an upcycled fitted bed sheet. Isn't it wonderful? I don't know why anyone would make it for a bed when it was obviously meant for this dress!

Expansion of the worldwide uninterruptible power supply (UPS) market is driven by the growing need to protect sensitive electronic devices from grid power quality instability as well as by the decreasing acceptance of downtime. In addition, more IT infrastructure is moving into the data center with higher standards for computing and data storage reliability and protection. According to a new report from Boulder, Colo.-based Pike Research, "Next Generation Uninterruptible Power Supplies," these trends, along with significant growth in emerging economies, will cause the global UPS market to expand from $7.2 billion in 2010 to $8.2 billion in 2011, a growth rate of 12.2%.
Worldwide market growth is also being spurred by the increasing adoption of UPS technologies in parts of Asia and other regions with notoriously unreliable local electricity grids. Leading UPS vendors are addressing all of these needs with an even stronger focus on efficiency, including more transformerless designs. Advances in battery technology are also benefiting UPS products by reducing cost and floorspace requirements. Rotary flywheel based systems remain popular at the high end of the market, but this simple design is also getting greater attention in the middle range of the market with new, more compact designs. The cleantech market intelligence firm forecasts that the market will grow to $13.2 billion by 2015.
"Leading UPS vendors are addressing the evolving needs of the market by focusing on greater efficiency, including more transformerless designs," says Pike Research president Clint Wheelock. "Advances in battery technology are also benefiting UPS products by reducing cost and floorspace requirements."
In 2010, the worldwide UPS market generated over $7 billion in revenues and Pike Research expects it to grow by more than 12% in 2011. Unit growth is anticipated to be slightly higher in 2011, driven by a small average sales value (ASV) decline, especially in the small UPS segment. The small UPS segment continued to generate the highest revenues in the global UPS market during the first half of 2011, but lost share to the fast-growing large UPS segment. Asia and the rest of world remained the strongest regional group, and it is expected to gain share, driven by the fast expansion in China and other emerging economies in Asia and Latin America. Pike Research forecasts that these areas will remain the largest and fastest growing regions and will account for over half the global UPS business by 2015.
This Pike Research report provides a comprehensive examination of the global market for uninterruptible power supplies including a focus on small, medium and large UPS industry dynamics. Emerging technologies and key industry players are analyzed in depth, and market forecasts for each segment and world region extend through 2015.

Left heart ventricular angiography is a procedure to look at the left side of the heart and, sometimes, the coronary arteries.
Alternative Names
Angiography - left heart; Left ventriculography
How the test is performed
Before the test, you will be given medicine to help you relax. You will be awake and able to follow instructions during the test.
When the tube is in place, dye is injected through it. The dye flows through the blood vessels, making them easier to see. X-rays are taken as the dye moves through the blood vessels. These x-ray pictures create a "movie" of the left ventricle as it contracts rhythmically.
The procedure may last from 1 to several hours.
How to prepare for the test
You will be told not to eat or drink for 6 - 8 hours before the test. The procedure takes place in the hospital. Some people may need to stay in the hospital the night before the test.
A health care provider will explain the procedure and its risks. You must sign a consent form for the procedure.
How the test will feel
You may feel pressure when the catheter is inserted. Occasionally, a flushing sensation occurs when the dye is injected.
Why the test is performed
This test is done to detect:
- A hole in the heart (ventricular septal defect)
- Abnormalities of the left heart valves
- An
aneurysmof the heart wall
- Areas of the heart that are not contracting normally
- Blood flow problems on the left side of the heart
- Heart-related blockages
- The overall pump function of the heart
Normal Values
A normal result shows normal blood flow through the left side of the heart. Blood volumes and pressures are also normal.
What abnormal results mean
An abnormal result may suggest a problem with the left side of the heart or the heart valves.
What the risks are
Risks associated with this procedure include:
- Abnormal heartbeats (
- Allergic reaction to dye
- Artery damage
Cardiac tamponade
- Embolism from
blood clotsat the tip of the catheter
- Heart failure due to the volume of the dye
- Infection
- Kidney failure from the dye
- Low blood pressure
Heart attack
- Hemorrhage
Special considerations
Left heart ventricular angiography has some risk because it is an invasive procedure. Other imaging techniques may carry less risk, such as:
CT scans
- Echocardiography
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the heart Radionuclide ventriculography
Your health care provider may decide to perform one of these procedures instead of left heart ventricular angiography.

April 29, 2006
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. - The men's track team prolonged an impressive streak on Saturday afternoon at the 2006 New England Women's and Men's Athletic Conference (NEWMAC) Outdoor Track and Field Championship. Host MIT accumulated 214.50 points and captured its sixth straight and seventh overall NEWMAC title while finishing ahead of second place Coast Guard (178). The Engineers won seven individual events en route to victory.
The competition was highlighted by several multi-event winners. As the only athlete to garner three event wins, senior star Uzoma Orji of MIT set a new meet record in the shot put (58-06.00). He also won the discus (147-10) and the hammer throw (195-05) to lead the Engineers with 30 total points on the day.
Freshman Michael Wright of Wheaton picked up victories in both the 100 (10.94) and 200 meter dash (22.51). Also with two event victories from Wheaton was freshman Jon Cunha, who won both the 110 hurdles (14.77) and the 400 hurdles (55.91). United States Coast Guard Academy junior Mike Flint took first (1:56.59) in the 800 and repeated in the 1500 (3:59.87).
Also earning victories for the Engineers were junior Spencer Dudley, sophomore Chris Bruce, sophomore Omari Stephens and senior Thad Wozniak. Dudley finished first in the 10,000 with a time of 32:57.33, and Bruce placed first in the 3000 steeplechase (10:03.11). In the field events, Stephens set a first place mark in the pole vault (14-06.00), while Wozniak won the long jump (22-00.75).
The Engineers will look to follow up their impressive performance with another solid outing next weekend at the New England Division III Championship in Springfield, Massachusetts.

text: Stacy Fender, formerly of UVM, named Individual Giving Officer News Home 10.09.13 By: Buff Lindau "I want to see the dreams of our leaders and the dreams of our donors come to fruition," Stacy Fender said about taking the job as a Saint Michael's College Individual Giving Officer. Fender, formerly Assistant Director of Major Gifts at the University of Vermont, began at Saint Michael's on September 30. "I want to see changes come through on campus because of the gifts that I'm able to bring," she added. Fender was at UVM from 2011 to the present and before that did consulting work for the University of Vermont through her job as senior director, for IDC Fundraising/Harris Connect, where she worked from 2007 to 2011. At Harris Connect she also worked for WFYI Public Broadcasting in Indiana where she was instrumental in increasing giving by 180%. She consulted for several other non-profit organizations while with Harris Connect. "I really wanted to work for a small private institution that had the kind of focus that Saint Michael's has - focus on service learning," she said. "I think people don't necessarily know how to make change in the world till they're out there," Fender said, "but Saint Michael's puts such emphasis on students doing community service that it gives students a chance to be in the world and figure out how to apply what they've learned - for them it's not theoretical anymore." Education Raised on a farm in Eastern Washington State, Fender graduated from nearby University of Idaho with a Bachelor of Science in History with honors, Public Relations Emphasis, in 2004. She earned a Master of Arts in Philanthropy and Development from Saint Mary's University of Minnesota in 2011. She earned this degree during summers while working full-time. "I've learned that you can't assume what you've learned in the past is going to be how you do your job today, so I try to meld those experiences into making the best decisions in this position," Fender said. "I find it a huge asset and a resource to call upon my connections with other institutions; I try to make sure that the knowledge I bring is not just me, but is all of my network behind me." Additional experience Fender has a wide array of working and volunteer experience in fundraising, including work as a board volunteer for the Association of Fundraising Professionals of Northern New England (2009 to present), and board volunteer for the Vermont Youth Conservation Corps (2008 to present), among other activities. Fender is a fan of all outdoor activities, especially mountain biking, and she is an avid Seattle Seahawks fan - "and I mean avid," she said. She and her partner, Danelle Berube '03 M'06 reside in Colchester.

North Korea is turning the funeral in Pyongyang next Wednesday for Kim Jong-il into an opportunity for rhetoric against South Korea for refusing to send an official condolence delegation and then for banning most other South Koreans from going there as well.
North Korea's official website Uriminzokkiri on Friday attacked South Korea for "unacceptable and inhumane action" for banning all but two condolence groups and warned darkly of the ban's "significant impact" of the ban.
The message on the website appeared as an attempt at intimidation, and a bid to suggest a new crisis on the Korean peninsula after Kim Jong-un, third son of Kim Jong-il, has assumed power.
"We will keep in mind those who do not understand even the most basic actions of respect and humanity," said the message, warning that those "who insult our dignity" face "a very expensive price."
The rhetoric suggested that the regime that falls into place after the funeral is not likely to shift dramatically from the hard-line stance of Kim Jong-il, who ruled with an iron fist during 17 years in power before his death – even while earning a reputation as a playboy and charming foreign visitors.
[ Video is no longer available. ]
"Not in the short run," says David Kang, professor of Korean studies at the University of Southern California, when asked about chances for a thaw in North Korea's tough stance vis-à-vis South Korea, the US, and Japan. "If he's following in his father's footsteps, it will take a couple of years" before there's any change in outlook.
North Korea promised a warm welcome to "condolence delegations" from South Korea, offering assurances that "the convenience and safety of South Korean condolence delegations will be fully guaranteed."
Two prominent widows will lead delegations
South Korea has agreed to permit two widows whose husbands had unique, tragically interwoven records in pursuing rapprochement between South and North to lead their own "condolence delegations."
First is Lee Hee-ho, widow of Kim Dae-jung, the president who articulated a "Sunshine policy" of reconciliation, flew to Pyongyang for the first inter-Korean summit with Kim Jong-il in June 2000, and won the Nobel Peace Prize six months later.
Second is Hyun Jeong-eun, widow of Chung Mong-hun, who was chairman of Hyundai Asan, the Hyundai group company responsible for realizing the dream of his father, Chung Ju-yung, to open up North Korea for business and tourism. Her husband committed suicide in August 2003 two months after his indictment for his role in channeling at least $500 million in bribes from South to North Korea to persuade Kim Jong-il to agree to the summit.
Aside from the issue over condolences from South Korea, questions swirl about the roles of Kim Jong-il's other offspring. His oldest son, Kim Jong-nam, who is 40, has been living it up in Macao for years. Once a likely successor, Kim Jong-nam lost out after he was nabbed by Japanese immigration officials in 2001 trying to get through Tokyo's Narita airport on a fake Dominican passport in order to take his son to Disneyland..
Nor is it clear if the middle of the three brothers, Kim Jong-chol, will be visible at the funeral. Jong-chol, now 30, has been living quietly in Pyongyang, not viewed as real competition since his father passed him over as effete, but will probably remain unseen on television even if he's somewhere close by.
Kim Jong-un nominally heads the funeral committee, but it's unlikely he had much to do with the selection of its 230 or so members. All one knows is that Jang Song-thaek, a vice chairman of the national defense commission that Kim Jong-il served as chairman, seems to be the regent.

DENVER Freshman Rep. Mike McLachlan of Durango on Tuesday passed his first bill, a plan to make it easier to hire senior managers at the Colorado Bureau of Investigation.
The bill removes the requirement that the CBI director and senior deputies be certified Colorado peace officers through the Peace Officers Standards and Training board.
McLachlan, a Democrat, ran the bill on behalf of the CBI and with the support of law-enforcement groups. Current law prevents qualified candidates from getting top jobs at the CBI, he said.
We have excluded the opportunity for people within the CBI to apply for promotion, and we have discouraged if not outright prohibited out-of-state people for applying for these positions, McLachlan said.
McLachlan said the bill (House Bill 1076) was a noncontroversial, good-government bill, and he suspected the 41-22 vote had more to do with politics.
I think a portion of the minority of the House is going to resist any efforts by me and other (members in) close races to accomplish anything in the Legislature, he said.
His bill now goes to the Senate.

I also agree that a sour mash may be your best bet.
I have not tried this with a Berliner Weisse, but I did do it with a Flanders red, and it worked very well. I was rereading Raj Apte's treatise on Flanders red and brown ales, and he noted in there that brett and lacto produce more souring components when they are forced to work on starches rather than dextrins.I took about 1/2 cup of flour, and boiled it in a couple cups of water to sanitize, and then added it to the fermenter. I gave it another couple months, and now the acidity is right up there. You could also see the starch haze disappear over 1-2 months.
That Zymurgy article also has syrup recipes that I am going to try. When sour mashing, how do you sanitize the mash tun following the souring? I would need to use a picnic cooler to hope to maintain temps....but I would hate to have a permanent sour only vessel.
I am going to make my first BW using an old mashtun/picnic cooler to maintain temps. I wouldn't think it would be a big deal if it did get contaminated. Anything that comes out of that will eventually be boiled for at least 60 minutes...not to mention that any mash is only going to last 60 minutes. That wouldnt be enough time( I don't think) to pick up any lacto sourness.

text: In the Battle of Attu, the main conflict of the Aleutian Islands Campaign during World War II (1939-45), American and Japanese armies fought from May 11 to May 30, 1943, for control of Attu, a small, sparsely inhabited island at the far western end of Alaska's Aleutian chain in the North Pacific. In June 1942, Japan had seized Attu and its neighbor Kiska, then established garrisons on the remote, U.S.-owned islands. The reason for taking Attu and Kiska, known for their barren, mountainous terrain and harsh weather, might have been to divert U.S. forces during Japan's attack on Midway Island (June 4-7, 1942) in the central Pacific. It's also possible the Japanese believed holding the two islands would prevent the U.S. from invading Japan via the Aleutians. Either way, the Japanese occupation was a blow to American morale. In May 1943, U.S. troops finally retook Attu and in August reclaimed Kiska.

Psychologists have long debated whether exceptional achievement demands raw talent or hard work. The development of artistic skill in children offers a window into the complex forces that define the first stages of mastery. As the drawings in this slide show reveal, some children discover new techniques and produce more complex compositions than others of the same age.
Talent alone does not explain these artists' virtuosity. They also possess a strong desire to engage with art and devote many hours to making it. Learn more about the development of artistic genius in "How to Spot Artistic Brilliance," by psychologists Jennifer E. Drake and Ellen Winner at Boston College in the November/December issue of Scientific American MIND.

remedy - I think this could be either concrete or abstract. It depends.
gossip = words = ideas and concepts - I'd call "gossip" abstract.
Ideas and concepts can be considered abstract or concrete as well.
An idea or a concept can be thought of as concrete based on how simple it is by comparison to more complicated ideas.

I want to further clarify this post even though is a bit old. This is a message I received from zen8tea today enquiring about this tea:Ritva wrote:I received the Sun Moon Lake Black Tea from zen8tea this week. It was described as Assam, but Melody at zen8tea told me it was indeed Ruby or Red Jade tea. I got a nice tin box with label "Sun Moon Lake Black Tea" in it. You can understand my surprise when the tea turned out to be not black at all! It's a rolled oolong. I brewed it and it tasted like a semi-oxidised oolong with medium roasting. The used leaves are brownish green...
This is real Sun Moon Lake black tea. In Taiwan, there are 2 types of the Sun moon lake black tea. One is Assam black tea-shaped, the other is roll-shaped.
The fermented process of later type is like Oriental Beauty tea, the tea leaves are exposed to leafhopper insects that take a bite out of each leaf, triggering a partial oxidation of the leaf. After the leaf is more mature and processed, a uniquely fragrance of honey and roses. This is special roll-shaped, different from traditional black tea-shapped.
The tea leaves are from sun moon lake. However, how to make tea is depending on how master to produce it. I tasted this teas 4 years ago and I like it very much, I'm glad that I could find this batch again this year. Once current stock runs out, I don't know when I can get it again next time. If you prefer Assam-shaped, I will consider to sell it in the future. (I personally prefer this roll-shaped tea's taste.)
I have brewed zen8tea's product and certainly doesn't taste like an oolong to me at all and have nothing to complain about. A very fine Taiwanese red tea.

One of the things I have noticed lately in high level PUGs is the effect of having a big variation in gearing between group members. It is very common these days to have three or more characters in a 5 man group with well over 5k gear score (that means they're using a fair amount of raid gear).
Not a bad thing, you'd think. Better geared groups get through the instance faster.
But if I'm playing a lesser geared alt and I am thrown in with really well geared dps, there's a chance that mobs will die before I've had to chance to use my full rotation. On my new Death Knight, if the overgeared chap is a ranged class and is especially keen, the mob might be pulled over to the other side of the room and almost dead before I even get a touch on it. So I am in two minds, I guess faster instances is good, but actually I want to play my new alt and get some practice. And having seriously overgeared dps in the group means that the mobs just die too fast for me to do that. I would probably have more fun in a group which had a much closer gear score variance.
Or the other side is when you have a really high geared healer thrown into the mix with lesser geared/ experienced tanks or dps. "Pull faster," says the healer with infinite spellpower and mana regen on their gear, "You can pull as fast as you like with me here." Well, no. Actually the main limiting factor on fast one can complete an instance is not usually the healing.
Sure, it's possible that the infinite healer could keep a tank alive as she pulled the entire instance in a single land-speed record breaking rush … but someone still has to actually kill the mobs. Plus some pulls can't be rushed anyway.
In fact, I have come to the conclusion that having an overgeared healer in your PUG is a waste of otherwise useful gear score. They get bored, and it doesn't actually help anyone else make shorter work of the instance (if that was your goal). Even my resto druid, sporting a few emblem items and generally teetering just below ICC entry levels, can snooze through a 5 man with just a few sleepy HoTs and nourish spells to keep things going. I can't imagine how bored a player would be with 1k more gear score than that. I guess that's a bonus if you want an easy life as a reward for all the hard work in raids.
This is really a design issue with the holy trinity (tank/ heal/ dps) and that if there is limited damage being taken then the healer part of the trinity doesn't have much to do. I personally think that if Cataclysm does encourage healers to throw some dps into the mix it will be a step forwards, although I know a lot of healers won't share my opinions.
So my proposal this week is this: how about the notion of an average group gearscore? When you zone into a PUG, the game could tweak everyone's gear appropriately to make sure that any differences were evened out. Maybe things would be more fun if the average gear level was even a function of the instance and not of the individuals. That way the challenge level would be more stable.
I know this will never happen. People like their individual rewards too much. But gear scaling in Wrath has made the 5 man game very strange indeed.

Breaking News
KFC is calling BS on the "pit bull girl" who was allegedly turned away from one of its franchises because customers were grossed out by her bite wounds.
KFC claims there have now been 2 investigations -- one internal and one independent -- and both show "no evidence" such an incident ever occurred at the Jackson Mississippi franchise.
3-year-old Victoria Welcher's family claims the girl was kicked out because employees felt her facial wounds from the dog attack were upsetting customers.
KFC says it will still honor its $30,000 donation to assist Victoria's family in paying her medical bills.
So even if the claim was phony ... it worked.

Should life and loyalty be sworn to a system, or Him?
Feb. 10, 2013
Background Scripture: Colossians 2:6-15
Devotional Reading: Romans 8:31-39
Paul is writing to the Christian congregation in Colossae because he has heard encouraging reports through Epaphras of their faith and, at the same time, he is aware they are under pressure from people who want to lead them astray with philosophies and rituals quite contrary to the gospel of Jesus Christ.
In Colossians 1 he is establishing a relationship with them, telling them of the good things he has heard about them from Epaphras and others.
Then he gets to the point of why he is writing them: "For I want you to know how much I am struggling for you, and for those in Laodicea, and for all who have not seen me face to face … I am saying this that no one may deceive you with plausible arguments. For though I am absent in body, yet I am with you in spirit and I rejoice to see your morale and the firmness of your faith in Christ" (2:1,4).
So he warns them all the representations they are receiving from various people are actually attempts to deceive them and persuade them that they need more than the gospel of Christ. The insight into divine mysteries they are being promised, they already have in "Christ himself, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge" (2:3).
As I wrote last week, Paul was concerned about the influence of pagans and Gnostics (those who, because of their intellect, believed they had insight into the divine mysteries). Perhaps it may seem there is not any similarity between the situation in Colossae and our churches today.
But, if we think about it, perhaps we can see that as Paul was concerned about outside negative influences in the first century A.D., he might equally be concerned about our situation in which we find ourselves – often tempted by influences and representations that promise to supplement the good news of Jesus Christ.
Might not Paul also write to us: "See to it that no one takes you captive through philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the universe and not according to Christ" (2:8-10)?
Something more?
Just as in Paul's time, outside influences promised the "something more" to life that tempted the Colossians, so today many of us believe we can "have it all" in Christianity and a secularism that seems to promise a lot more for a lot less.
Many have come to the conclusion that Christianity is just one of a number of influences that help to identify us. And when it comes to "push or shove," some of those other identifications are more sacred to us than our religion.
These include our political affiliations, social rankings, vocational aspirations and the ethics, or lack thereof, that govern the way we live.
One of President Teddy Roosevelt's sons used to say that his father was "all for peace, so long as it didn't interfere with the fighting." Might we not say something similar about ourselves: All for Christ – so long as it doesn't interfere with getting ahead, making a buck or getting what we think is "coming to us!"
Do we really agree with Paul when he says: "For in him the whole fullness of deity dwells bodily, and you have come to fullness in him, who is the head of every ruler and authority" (2:9,10)? Paul is assuring the Colossians that in Christ, everything is fulfilled, that nothing more is needed.
And for us, the question is pretty much not did they believe him – but do we? Is Christ enough and more for us, or do we really need something else to make life full? I ask these questions not only of you, but of myself as well.
What God sends us
It is human for us to try to formulate life with our systems: free enterprise, democracy, communism, fascism, hedonism, moral restraint, etc. But there is no human system, structure, philosophy, theology, that is foolproof, above question or beyond failure. Any human system is less than cosmic, eternal or divine.
No church is a perfect example of what God calls us to be. And, as Paul indicates, that is why God sent us not a system, but a person.
Francis W. Beare says of us, "They have received not a system of ideas that might become a subject of debate, but a person to whom they must now be loyal … The maintenance of this personal fellowship with the Christ whom they received in the gospel is the same protection against the allurements that would bring them in subjection to other spiritual powers."
We humans have to have systems, but we cannot give our loyalty, our love, our lives to a system – only to a Person. All the ecclesiastical systems human beings create, all the liturgies, all the confessions, all the theologies and creeds are secondary to, and many miles short of, the person of Jesus Christ. In him, not our denominational systems, all the fullness of deity dwells.
What Paul wrote to Colossae, he writes to us as well: "See to it that no one makes a prey of you by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the universe and not according to Christ, for in him the whole fullness of deity dwells bodily, and you have come to fullness of life in him, who is the head of all rule and authority" (2:8-10).

As Austin Dillon slipped out of his No. 3 RCR Enterprises Chevrolet his past Saturday night at Homestead-Miami Speedway, the Nationwide Series season was finally over and he had been crowned champion.
As Austin Dillon slipped out of his No. 3 RCR Enterprises Chevrolet his past Saturday night at Homestead-Miami Speedway, the Nationwide Series season was finally over and he had been crowned champion.
Intense emotional weight that had been on his shoulders throughout every lap of the Ford 300 had finally been replaced by a rush of adrenaline. He was surrounded by his crew with genuine hugs and congratulations being passed all around. After one of the longest nights of his life, he had somehow emerged the driver at center stage with trophy in hand. It was a test of those with the strongest of nerves.
As race winner Brad Keselowski crossed under the checkered flag, Dillon had miraculously secured the title by a mere three points ahead of Sam Hornish, Jr., a driver for Mooresville's Penske Racing.
Dillon was quick to praise his longtime crew, the close group of friends that helped him secure the 2011 Camping World Truck Series championship two years ago. He also thanked God for seeing them through.
"For me, it's all about my guys in this one," Dillon said during post-race interviews. "Danny Stockman, he changed my career, for sure, as a crew chief. He had confidence in me. Anything I told him from the beginning, and we started together in the Truck Series the first time, I'm sure I scared him the first race out in Daytona when I hit the wall on lap one. Ever since then, my man here has stuck by my side, always given me speed in race cars.
"Tonight more than anything he gave me motivation. I thank him for that. We didn't have the fastest car. It was ugly the way we did it, but we showed we had heart. We're never going to give up. It paid off in the end."
Dillon was understandably nervous during the race, as so many things were dictating a terrible outcome and quickly becoming a story of a championship lost. For a time, nothing was going right and things were looking bad. It was time to concentrate on the bigger picture and focus on every lap and every position that could be gained.
"Halfway through the race, it was pretty ugly," Dillon said. "I told myself, I hit the wall once, at that point in time, you can either wreck here and give the championship away or wait till the end and give yourself a chance. That's what we did, we gave ourselves a chance, and it worked out for us.
Stockman seemed relieved the race and weekend had finally come to a close. The headaches of dealing with problems one right after another threatened to take its toll.
"Today was really probably one of the hardest days of my racing career," Stockman said. "We unloaded the first practice, and we just didn't have any speed. The second practice we took off, we were okay. We did a qualifying run, we were just terrible. I thought we were going to be fine. Qualifying was absolutely terrible for us. We pretty much ran the race terrible (as well)."
Sprint Cup regulars won 28 of the 32 Nationwide races in 2013, including 12 by Kyle Busch and six by Keselowski. Hornish Jr., Regan Smith (twice), Trevor Bayne and Ryan Blaney won among the Nationwide regulars.
Ironically, Dillon didn't win a race during the Nationwide season and is the first driver to collect a major NASCAR championship without having a victory. He collected 13 top-five and 23 top-10 finishes that proved just enough to pull it off.
There have been criticisms over the fact no wins were logged. Dillon and his team cite consistency and steady strength as their foundation for their title run.
After the title had been secured and champagne had showered his crew, Dillon's team owner and grandfather Richard Childress made note of the late Dale Earnhardt and how he carried the No. 3 to six of his seven-career championships for Welcome's RCR organization. It will be special in 2014 when Dillon takes the number back to the Sprint Cup circuit for RCR after a 12-year absence.
"This is another championship with a 3, Austin won it with a 3 in the Truck Series," Childress said. "I remember before that race was over, I looked up to the sky and said, 'Old pal, we need you.' I did that again tonight. He came through."

Lacey Richardson, Mercer (Sharpsburg, Ga. – P – Sr. – Business) – Went 2-0 with a 0.00 ERA for her second consecutive week to help Mercer to a sweep of ETSU and a split with USC Upstate. Richardson yielded just six hits and three walks in 11 innings of work to help Mercer clinch at least the third seed in the upcoming conference tournament.

Andrea Migliori, Stetson (Winter Garden, Fla. – 1B – Sr. – Accounting Information Systems) – Migliori homered three times in a four-game span in Stetson's six contests this week, including a two-run home run in the first inning of Game 1 against Belmont on Saturday that set the tone for a Hatter sweep.
Sara Stukes, Mercer (Powder Springs, Ga. – SS – Fr. – Psychology) – Lifted a three-run home run in the first inning of Mercer's game two win over ETSU on Saturday. Stukes' shot, combined with solid defense and stellar pitching helped the Bears to a program record tying 35th victory, and 14th conference win of the season.

1. Re: killer whale submarine or digital movie camera ?the_wine_snob Apr 17, 2012 9:13 AM (in response to able123)
At first, I wanted one, and then got to thinking. It would be just my luck, that on the maiden voyage, a boat-load of Eskimos would come by and harpoon me, or perhaps a sperm whale would eat me. Somehow, playing Jonah is not my idea of a fun afternoon, especially as the sperm whale's stomach would be full of giant squid parts - e-e-e-uh!
Besides, the $100K price sort of puts that device into a special category of "I'd rather spend the $ elsewhere."
2. Re: killer whale submarine or digital movie camera ?able123 Apr 18, 2012 9:59 AM (in response to the_wine_snob)
I watched the video on right side of that web page... and noticed it never really gets much below a few feet of water. If the air intake could be shut off, and switch to battery power, and do deep... like about 50 feet or so...hehe.. that would be FUN....
also...have a periscope
also ....have some sort of anti eskimo ( or japanese ) whaler weapons....like shoot some harpoons right back at em...that would be cool.
3. Re: killer whale submarine or digital movie camera ?able123 Apr 18, 2012 1:12 PM (in response to able123)
on further review of potential of whale sub, and of course always thinking of " what I could shoot to make a movie " with some digital "cinema" camera, I did a test...
I tried to contact the driver of the whale sub during a test shot with the $ 400 digital camera I have ( for video ). I used my old Dick Tracy wristwatch phone...which in it's day was quite the cat's meow.
Now , unfortunately, due to broadband mobile infrastructure getting a little " behind" on the streaming info over the networks... things have slowed up. I get more dropped calls on my wristwatch, more mssgs going to text , and its now critical I watch my " minutes" quota.
Consequently, if " mumbles " calls me with a tip about some gangland activity happening tonight at the club where " breathless" is performing, I sometimes need to check my minutes, decide if the caller ID is worth picking up, and so on.
Or I just try to do the text mssg thing direct.. without the voice...or try to twitter or facebook the info ... its getting sorta complicated, compared to the old days.
above image is indicative of what happens when you dont have a CB radio or walkie talkie ...and you're not in a dead spot. Can you hear me now ??

Do you really think everyone in Valley Stream plays by the same rules when it comes to enforcing Civil Litigation within the courts? We think not.
As Private Process servers in Valley Stream who perform service of process services locally and on a statewide and nationwide basis we see and hear all of the games played by people involved in litigation; mainly defendants and witnesses in Valley Stream who avoid getting served with legal papers. For us a good portion of our time is playing "cat and mouse" with people or even "dog catcher" trying to leash a wild animal from running around the neighborhood in Valley Stream. Not to say we are equating people in Valley Stream with animals, yet many defendants and witnesses act that way when it comes to eluding process servers and service of process.
Most of the hurdles Process Servers are challenged by in Valley Stream are based upon how people, defendants and witnesses try to make themselves immune from service of process. Many hide behind doors or exit side doors covertly. Many people even try to use gated communities, camera's at their doorway(s) and even use motion activated lights and video to avoid meeting a Process Server!
Interestingly, when Process Server engage security guards in gated communities they are generally helpful, but come holiday season when the guards are expecting tips, many become protective of their community residents so as to not piss them off and possibly lose their annual Christmas or New Year gift. Yeah, we Process Servers deal with numerous variables that all affect how service of process is made or not made. One would think the judicial process in Valley Stream would be a bit more sophisticated by now but it's not. Process Server's in Valley Stream today are still dealing with the same issues presented to Process Servers from last century. The only difference is, there is more technology that assists defendants and witnesses avoid the inevitable.
It's really not all that bad as Process Servers have gained an advantage over evasive witnesses and defendants. We now have access to social media, on line resources, GPS Tracking and other useful tools that never existed until recently.
Process Servers in Valley Stream today are challenged by weather, timing and even dangerous circumstances. Don't think for a minute Process Serving is an easy job or something that anyone can do. Process Serving services are performed by unique and highly talented professionals. Like any profession there are some that are not so professional but rest assured the overwhelming majority of Private Process Servers in Valley Stream are abundantly equipped to deal with all circumstances and can be depended upon.
Here at A.C.E. Process Services our Valley Stream Process Servers are vetted; background checked and are long term members of the most prestigous nationwide and statewide process serving associations. We are very careful who works for us and how we go about handling service of process. Our Management staff consists of Private Investigators (Agency License A9900347), Licensed Sheriff Appointed Special Process Server, Court Certified Process Servers, Realtors, An Attorney and a host of talented and generally experience business people who care.

An American Eagle flight that departed for Dallas at 12:30 p.m. Sunday was forced to return to the Durango-La Plata County Airport after experiencing mechanical problems.
It took off normally, said airport spokesman Don Brockus, and about 15 minutes in, the pilot contacted Denver Center and said he was having difficulty with the yaw. He declared an emergency.
The yaw is side-to-side movement on an airplane.
Passenger Doug Ivey told his wife, Christie, they heard a loud pop after takeoff.
American Airlines spokesman Matt Miller confirmed the mechanical difficulties, but didnt say what the specific problem was.
As soon as he turned around, he did tell our firefighters he did feel he was in emergency conditions, Brockus said about the pilot, and the firefighters declared an Alert 1, the lowest level, and brought other mutual-aid partners in to be on standby. We rolled out trucks as a precaution.
The firefighters said the landing visually appeared normal, but Ivey said it didnt feel that way.
He said the landing was really rough and turbulent, Christie Ivey said about her husbands phone call. He said it felt like the pilot couldnt use the rudder, like he was having to steer with the flaps.
Brockus said the standby ambulance and firetruck didnt even make it to the airport before they were called off.
Passengers waited at the airport for more than five hours for a new plane, eventually departing at 6:45 p.m.
