Dying as a Means of Loving, Part 1
From Gospel Translations
1John 12:20-26
By John Piper About Loving Others
Part of the series The Greatest of These is Love
Now there were certain Greeks among those who were going up to worship at the feast; these therefore came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida of Galilee, and began to ask him, saying, "Sir, we wish to see Jesus." Philip came and told Andrew; Andrew and Philip came, and they told Jesus. And Jesus answered them, saying, "The hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified. Truly, truly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains by itself alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit. He who loves his life loses it; and he who hates his life in this world shall keep it to life eternal. If anyone serves Me, let him follow Me; and where I am, there shall My servant also be; if anyone serves Me, the Father will honor him."
"We Wish to See Jesus"
Summer is for doing what these Greeks wanted to do. Verse 21 says they came to Philip and said, "Sir, we wish to see Jesus." Summer is for seeing and showing Christ. We want to see Jesus, they said. And I say, I do too. That is what I want to happen in my life this summer. I want to see him so clearly and so powerfully that I am changed from one degree of glory to another into his image so that I can show him to others more compellingly.
So did they get to see him—these Greeks? Most likely they did. But the way Jesus handled the request is probably not what they expected. They said, "We wish to see Jesus." So Philip and Andrew came and told Jesus (v. 22). Does he show himself to them? Yes he does. The same way he shows himself to us—with truth about himself that becomes a truth about us. This is the way Jesus appears in power: he gives truth about himself that becomes truth about us.
Jesus Gives Them a Truth About Himself
He says in verse 23,
[So there are Greeks who want to see me? Here is the truth about me that matters for Greeks who want to see me and know me:] The hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified.
I am on my way to glory. I really will be something to see. They are right to want to see me. I will be the most glorious person to behold in the universe when my Father raises me from the dead and gives me a name which is above every name that at my name every knee will bow—including the Greeks and the barbarians. Yes, they are right to want to see me—and even want to be identified with me.
Jesus Also Gives Them an Unexpected Truth
But here is a truth that they may not expect. Verse 24:
Truly, truly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains by itself alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit.
My pathway to glory is through death. Do you want to see that? I will indeed bear much fruit—including Greeks—But I will not and I cannot bear this fruit any way but through dying. Tell the Greeks that I will not come to them now, because I have a hard work to do so that I might bear them as the fruit of my life and ministry. If I leave the road I'm on to go and be seen by men, I will remain alone and you and the Greeks will not be saved. But if I go and die on my way to glory, then I will bear much fruit—you will be saved and the Greeks will be saved, and all who believe in me will be saved. This is what I want them to see. See me dying. See me bearing fruit.
It Becomes a Truth About Them (and Us)
That is the truth about Jesus that he reveals to the Greeks. But now it also becomes a truth about them—and about us. Jesus' self- revelation is always a confrontation. He says in verses 25 and 26: my dying for your salvation is also my design for your imitation. If you want to see me, be prepared to become like me. This is what happens. Do you mean it: "We wish to see Jesus"? Do we mean it this morning? Jesus says, If you mean it—if you want to see me—prepare to become like me. Prepare to follow me on the road I am going.
So he says, (v. 25):
He who loves his life loses it; and he who hates his life in this world shall keep it to life eternal. If anyone serves Me, let him follow Me [Where? To Gethsemane and to Calvary and to the grave]; and where I am, there shall My servant also be [in the presence of my Father in glory]; if anyone serves Me, the Father will honor him.
So Jesus begins with truth about himself—the hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified and this will happen by the grain of wheat falling into the ground and dying. Then he makes the truth about himself a truth about his followers. Will we hate our lives in this world? Will we follow him on the path to Calvary? Will we serve the Son in this way? Will we let the truth about the Son of Man become truth about us?
This is the way we see Jesus and the way we show Jesus. He reveals himself to us as a Person who goes to glory and bears much fruit by dying—by hating his life in this world. That's what we see. And then he says, Follow me. Die with me. Hate your life in this world with me. Serve me. And if we do, we show Christ to the world. Christ means to be seen by the Greeks and by every other people group in the world. And the way he means for it to happen is by our becoming like him in his dying so that others may see him in us (2 Corinthians 4:10).
The Way Is Hard and Glorious
Two things are unmistakable here. One is that this is hard. And the other is that this is glorious. Don't miss either of these. If you only see the hard part, you will miss the power and the freedom. If you only see the glorious part, you will minimize the sacrifice. So let me show you four hard things and four glorious things.
The Way Is Hard
First, the hard things:
- Verse 24: the grain of wheat must die. "Unless the grain of wheat fall into the ground and die . . . "
- Verse 25: Jesus calls us to hate our lives in this world. "He who loves his life loses it; and he who hates his life in this world . . ."
- Verse 26a: Jesus calls us to follow him—on his Calvary road, leading to death. "If anyone serves me let him follow me . . . "
- Finally, verse 26b: he calls us to serve him. To take the role of a waiter at his table to do his bidding, no matter what the demand or how lowly the status.
Now that is what it means to be a Christian, a disciple of Jesus. And it is hard. Jesus knew it would be hard. That's why he said in Matthew 7:14, "The gate is narrow and the way is hard, that leads to life, and those who find it are few." It is hard to die. It is hard to hate your life in this world. It is hard to follow Jesus on the road that leads to the cross. It is hard to take the role of a servant in a world of power.
The Way Is Glorious
But it is also glorious. And the glory compensates for the hardness of it all. In fact the glory turns the hardness of it into the most significant life imaginable. Just this week I was reading about the search for significance. Do you know what next year is? Beginning January 1, 1996, and continuing for the next 18 years, someone in America will turn 50 every 1.8 seconds. So the books are rolling off the press, because one thing we Baby Boomers know how to do is cash in on our life-stages. And virtually all the books address the theme of significance versus success. You're 50. You've made it in your career. How do you feel about it? Not so great. Well, take stock of the last 15 and go for significance not success. That's the message.
It's a good one. And the good news is that you 20-year-olds don't have to wait till you're 50 for a life of significance and you 70-year-olds don't have to think that it's too late. The life Jesus is calling for here is glorious in its outcome and therefore deeply significant in its hardness.
Here's the glory:
- Verse 24: Yes the seed must die, but "if it dies it bears much fruit." The death is not in vain. It is significant. It bears fruit.
- Verse 25: Yes, if we love our lives, we will lose them; and yes, we must hate our lives in this world. But why? What will be the outcome? That we may keep it to eternal life. "He who hates his life in this world shall keep it to life eternal." What we lay down for Christ he will put in our hands again with glory. You cannot out-sacrifice his resurrection generosity.
- Verse 26a: Yes, we must follow him to Calvary. But with what outcome? "And where I am, there shall my servant be." Jesus used those very words one other time (John 14:3), and he meant heaven: "I go to prepare a place for you that where I am there you may be also." If we follow him to Calvary, we will be with him in heaven.
- Verse 26b: Yes, we must become his servants. But what does the Father do to his servants? "If anyone serves Me, the Father will honor him."
So don't miss the glory in this hard life of being a Christian.
- We die;
- we hate our lives in this world;
- we follow Jesus on the Calvary road;
- we become servants.
And when we do, what we find is that
- We bear much fruit;
- we keep our lives for eternal life;
- we join Jesus where he is in glory;
- the Father honors us.
At least for this almost-50-year-old, that sounds like the way I want to live the few remaining years I have left in this world, and how I want to spend eternity. I invite you to join me. It won't be easy, but it will be significant.
Before Revival and Fruit Bearing: Death
We are praying for revival in our fellowship and across the Twin Cities and around the world—that God would come in great self- evidencing power and make his church vibrant and strong and bold and joyful and radical in allegiance to him. When this text (John 12:24–26) came to me Saturday a week ago, it came with the force of a warning and an invitation: beware of praying toward revival. Why? Because before there will be the life of revival, there is the dying of reward. Beware of praying toward great fruitfulness in ministry and in your personal life. Why? Because only if the grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies does it bear much fruit. Know what you are asking. But if you are willing, I invite you to seek this. This is the most significant life there is on the planet. Not many are willing to even think about it. But I offer it to you in Jesus' name.
So I have been asking myself earnestly, and I want you to ask with me this morning, "What in me must die?" What must die for my life and ministry to bear more fruit? Is there a corporate dying that we have to go through in order to bear more fruit? What in our church must die for us to bear more fruit? It's a scary question—personally and corporately.
It has a lot to do with love. That is what I will try to show you next week from 1 Corinthians 13:4–7—how love is the topside of this dying. That is, what lives when all dies that ought to die is love. It was an amazing discovery for me to compare John 12:24–26 with 1 Corinthians 13:4–7. That's what we'll do next week.
I had planned on doing that this week. But the more I thought about this issue of dying for the sake of fruit-bearing, the more I felt I needed to see this in the bigger picture of what it means to be a Christian. I don't want you to get the impression that this word from the Lord is a little peripheral word. This word about dying and hating your life in this world is not a marginal word. It is a central word. So let me draw things to a close today by showing you what I mean.
There are two straightforward points.
If You're a Christian, You've Already Died
First, if you are a Christian, you have already died. This is not a second or third stage in the Christian life. This is the meaning of becoming a Christian. Becoming a Christian means dying. Here are the key texts: Galatians 5:24,
Now those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.
Note the tense: if we belong to Christ (that is, if we are true Christians), this is what has happened to us. Our flesh—that old rebellious, unbelieving, self-centered person we were apart from Christ—was crucified. That is, when we put our faith in Christ, we were united to him and what he experienced, we experienced (Romans 6:5). His death became our death so that his life might become our life.
Don't panic here, thinking, "O that can't be, I still have some very rebellious, unbelieving, self-centered tendencies." Yes, me too. But do not let your experience become the main authority here. The Word of God says, "Those who belong to Christ have crucified the flesh." That is something we are called to believe and live by.
Or consider the word in Colossians 3:3,
You have died and your life is hidden with Christ in God.
This is what happened to you when you became a Christian. This is the meaning of your baptism:
We have been buried with Him through baptism into death, in order that as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we too might walk in newness of life. (Romans 6:4)
Becoming a Christian means a decisive death to the old and a newness of life, walking by faith with Christ. Paul put it like this in Galatians 2:20:
I am crucified with Christ, it is no longer I who live but Christ who lives in me; and the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God who loved me and gave himself for me.
My old unbelieving self died; the me that lives lives by faith (moment-by-moment) in Christ.
So when I ask myself and you about dying as a means to revival, we must understand that we are not talking about becoming Christians all over again. We are not denying that something glorious has happened to us decisively and already and once for all. It has. We have been joined to Christ by the Holy Spirit and we have died with him and are walking in newness of life in him. Our life is hid with Christ in God. Something eternal and magnificent has happened.
So what am I asking, when I say, "What in me must die that I might be a more fruitful father and husband and pastor? What in us must die as a church for us to be more fruitful?" I said a moment ago that there are two straightforward points. The first was, if you are a Christian, you have already died.
If You're a Christian, God Calls You to Die Daily
Now the second one is: If you are a Christian, God calls you to die daily. Or, if you don't like paradoxes, God calls us to experience practically in daily life what is true about us positionally in Christ. In Christ we are dead to sin and our lives are hidden in Christ in God. Now because that is your position in God's reckoning, put it into practical experience. In fact, making it true in practice by the power of the Holy Spirit (Romans 8:13) is the evidence that this is your position.
Where do I find this second point in the Bible? First, I find it in the words of Jesus, Luke 9:23,
If anyone wishes to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me.
The word "daily" shows that following Jesus means a daily dying, not only a once-for-all dying. Each day I must experience in practice what is true of me in my position in Christ. I am once for all "crucified with Christ" (Galatians 2:20; 5:24)—that's my position; my life is hid with Christ in God (Colossians 3:3). Therefore I must believe this reality and act on it and experience it. I must become in practice what I am in my position. And the practice confirms the reality of the position.
The other place I find this truth is in the apostle Paul's letters. In Romans 6, after saying in verse 5 that we "were united with [Christ] in the likeness of his death," and after saying in verse 6 that our "old self was crucified with him," then he says in verse 11, "Consider yourselves to be dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus." In other words, you are dead with Christ—that is your position; therefore "consider yourselves dead to sin"—demonstrate your position by your practice.
It's the same in Colossians 3. After saying in verse 3 that "you have died and your life is hid with Christ in God," he says in verse 5,
Therefore put to death the members [of your sinful body] on the earth, immorality, impurity, passion, evil desire, and greed.
You have died and your position is in Christ. Now experience this death in your fight with sin. Put to death your sinning self. Show who you really are in Christ by trusting his promises above all else.
I want you to glory in what it means to be a Christian. You do not become a Christian by working away at all the things you must die to. You become a Christian by a decisive work of God in you and by a decisive surrender to Jesus Christ through which, by faith in him, he becomes your substitute and your Lord. Then comes a life-long experience of becoming in practice what you are by your position. And that becoming—called sanctification—strengthens your assurance that you are real.
So what I am asking myself and you is this:
- Is there something God is calling me to die to that I might experience more fully my position in Christ; that I might see Christ more clearly and show him more compellingly?
- Am I striving against my very nature as a Christian by trying to keep alive something God sentenced to death when I became a Christian?
- Are my weaknesses as a father or a husband or a witness owing to something that needs to die in me—some old habit, some secret sin, some root of pride, some fear of looking silly, some desperate need for approval, some desire for wealth?
Next week I want to share with you what the Lord is showing me about how loving each other is what this dying is all about. But this morning let's just soberly ask ourselves the question: is there something that is hindering my fruitfulness in Christ—something that keeps me from seeing him and showing him—something that I need to die to? Lord, show us what it is; and we will obey the Word and put it to death by the Spirit (Romans 8:13).

While Canadians' life expectancy has lengthened to an average of 80.7 years, according to Statistics Canada, and baby boomers are keeping their teeth clean and healthy, they are also experiencing an increase in such problems as exposed gums, dry mouth, acute sensitivity and tooth root cavities.
"We're dealing with problems that other generations with shorter lifespans never had to deal with," said Pickering, Ont., dentist Dr. Steven Weiner. "In previous eras, if you had a toothache, you pulled the tooth. Then you had to deal with other issues that involved. People now are retaining their teeth longer -- for a lifetime -- and that wasn't the goal back then.
"We see so many perfect teeth now, through orthodontics, great home and dental care, but what we have as a result of the aging population is great teeth and poor gums."
One of the most prominent issues is adult root cavities, which occur when vigorous brushing and age push back gums and expose the base of the teeth. According to a report by Canada's Oral Health Journal, the issue is exacerbated by the age-related health problems baby boomers are experiencing.
In a study of people over 59 years of age in three North American cities, researchers discovered a link between those taking antihypertensives, antidepressants and analgesics and an increased risk of caries (or cavities). The at-risk group taking medication experienced an incidence of 3.39 new lesions over 12 months due to "chronic disease and multiple medication use, and concomitantly, growing prevalence of dry mouth." By 2021, the authors conclude, one-third of retired Canadians will develop root caries and need restorative surgery or treatments.
Weiner said there is also a growing number of aging Canadians with tooth sensitivity issues. "We're wearing out the enamel on teeth, exposing root surfaces, and that's leading to sensitivity, which is affecting 57 per cent of Canadians," he said.
Although the problem is showing up more in older adults, Weiner said it starts early, and is caused by diet, over-vigorous brushing and teeth grinding.
Once gums begin to recede, the tooth's dentin coating is exposed, and eventually, so too is the network of microscopic tubules that lead from the tooth's surface to the inner nerve, and transmit sensations of hot, cold and sweetness. Once the dentin is worn away and the tubules are left without a covering, the teeth and inner nerve can become painfully sensitive to sensation, particularly after a cosmetic whitening, he said.
"As the tooth is in longer, we're using it more, we're grinding, we're losing enamel, and teeth are worn down through attrition.
"If we add to that gum recession, the root of the tooth begins to show and so do the tubules. It's a very gradual process, and people who have wonderful care and are good flossers won't find it's as big of an issue."
He said the issue can be resolved in the dentist's chair with coatings, bonding and desensitizers placed on teeth, as well as surgical procedures such as root canals to deaden touchy nerves.
But the solution should start at home. Most critically, he recommends using a soft or extra-soft toothbrush to glide over teeth in a motion away from the gums.
"Hard toothbrushes are just good for cleaning tools in the shed," he observed. "Some people are scrubbers and feel that it's strength rather than technique that will get their teeth clean."
Fluoridation in water is important, as are products designed to relieve sensitivity issues.
There are a number of toothpastes on the market containing agents that redcoat the dentin and protect tubules from hot and cold messages to the nerve bundles, but Weiner said there is only one mouthwash available, Listerine Total Care for Sensitive Teeth, developed in response to the aging mouth issue.
"It fights bad breath and gingivitis and all that, but Listerine has included fluoride to remineralize the enamel of the tooth and a desensitizing agent that can get to places the toothbrush and toothpaste can't," he said.

Praise forfOne Nation, Under Attack
"One Nation, Under Attack is an eyeopening, hard-hitting, factual, andfwell-documented representation of world events as they relate to Biblefprophecy—as we count down the final hours to the return of Christ. Where is America in prophecy? What about China? Will the U.S. economy survive? One Nation, Under Attack takes on these questions and
more. Grant Jeffrey—my dear friend, mentor, and colleague of more than twenty years—has gone home to meet the Lord, and our loss is heaven's gain. But I am sure you will agree that Grant's last book is also his best. Maranatha!"
—Jack Kinsella, publisher and editor, Omegaletter.com
"Not only did Grant Jeffrey see the signature of God written across the pages of Scripture, but all of us who knew him could see the signature of God written across his heart, soul, and mind as he declared the gospel of Jesus Christ. Grant never hesitated to preach and teach the promise of Christ's coming and the message that Jesus alone can bring peace to a troubled soul and give you the hope of heaven."
—Dr. Ed Hindson, dean, Institute of Biblical Studies, Liberty University
"Heralding the premillennial revival, Grant perfected the art of the prophecy book in a way that no one had done before: spectacular new discoveries, cutting-edge research, timely subjects that weigh heavily on the public's mind. When Grant said Jesus was coming soon, we believed him! He was the voice of authority in the world of Bible prophecy. Grant affected millions of lives with his books and television ministry. Scholar, tireless researcher, mentor, friend. Grant's voice is one we came to trust and depend on."
—Bob Ulrich, editor, Prophecy in the News
"On a personal level I'm saddened that I'll not see Grant Jeffrey again on this earth. One of the world's great authorities on Bible prophecy about the end times, and one of the great warriors for the faith, has been withdrawn
by the Lord. I rejoice that Grant is now face to face with the Lord. His burdens are over, his work is finished. I know we will miss the voice of Grant Jeffrey. But we shall all see him soon."
—Hal Lindsey, best-selling author and television host, The Hal Lindsey Report One

Detroit Cass Tech football star Jayru Campbell body slams school security guard to ground
Campbell, a 4-star Michigan State recruit, is in Detroit police custody
DETROIT – Four-star quarterback and Michigan State football recruit Jayru Campbell is in custody after he body slammed a security guard at Detroit Cass Tech High School.
Campbell, a junior and quarterback at Cass Tech, is shown on video slamming the security guard to the ground in a school hallway on Wednesday.
Michelle Zdrodowski, a spokeswoman for Detroit Public Schools, said Campbell will be disciplined internally according to the student code of conduct. Outside of the school, Zdrodowski said Campbell could be charged with misdemeanor assault and battery.
Michigan State University won't comment on whether Campbell's scholarship would be pulled. The university released this statement: "NCAA rules prohibit institutions from commenting on specific prospects until a National Letter of Intent has been signed."
Zdrodowski said the security guard was privately contracted and was examined for any serious injuries at an area clinic.
Last year, Campbell had to be restrained at a game against Catholic Central for allegedly punching a player during the post-game handshake.

Here are some updates...
- A reader contacted me and let me know that Slim's Downtown Distillery in downtown Raleigh was now carrying RedBridge. I spoke with Joe who is the manager at Slim's and he did confirm that they began carrying it a few weeks ago and plan to permanently carry RedBridge. Slim's is located at 227 S. Wilmington Street. We already know that the Raleigh Times Bar also carries GF Beer. Anybody been to the Flying Saucer lately? I know they used to carry RedBridge and Bard's Tale. I'll check in with them and let you know.
- I conversed with MillerCoors (2nd largest brewer in the US) about the possibility of the brewer making Gluten Free Beer. They politely stated that they do not have any plans on brewing a GF Beer. RedBridge (and a few others) it is I guess. If you would like some more variety, contact them yourself to help encourage them a little.
- I also attempted to contact several other brewers including Yuengling and Boston Beer Company (Sam Adams). I have not heard anything back. I will let you know.
- I have in the past asked Raleigh brewer Big Boss about GF Beer and they said they were focused on expansion of current products but might consider it in the future.
- I have also in the past spoken with Holly Springs brewer Carolina Brewing Company (see the 2nd paragraph). They respectfully declined my invitation to make GF Beer that tasted like CPA. Bummer.
- The Carolina Hurricanes are still carrying RedBridge at the RBC Center! I plan to ask them at the end of the season how many bottles they sold - more to come.

A Suslin algebra is a generalization of a Suslin tree: it is a ccc, $(\omega,\infty)$-distributive boolean algebra. Jech proved that every Suslin algebra has size at most $2^{\omega_1}$. A proof is given in the current edition of his book "Set Theory." He also mentions that it is consistent to have Suslin algebras of size $2^{\omega_1}$ but does not sketch an argument. I have been having trouble finding a proof of this fact. I looked in the older edition of Jech's book, and he says a little more about it there, but still no proof. I would be very grateful if someone could point me to a paper that has a construction of a large Suslin algebra, or sketch a proof here in an answer. I am also curious about the following:
1) Is it consistent to have Suslin trees but no Suslin algebras of density larger than $\omega_1$?
2) Can the existence of large Suslin algebras be proved from several diamonds, say $\Diamond_{\omega_1}$ + $\Diamond_{\omega_2}(cof(\omega_1))$?

1939 : USSR expelled from the League of Nations1939 : USSR expelled from the League of Nations
On this day, the League of Nations, the international peacekeeping organization formed at the end of World War I, expels the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics in response to the Soviets' invasion of Finland on October 30.
Although the League of Nations was more or less the brainchild of President Woodrow Wilson, the United States, which was to have sat on the Executive Council, never joined. Isolationists in the Senate--put off by America's intervention in World War I, which they felt was more of a European civil war than a true world war--prevented American participation. While the League was born with the exalted mission of preventing another "Great War," it proved ineffectual, being unable to protect China from a Japanese invasion or Ethiopia from an Italian one. The League was also useless in reacting to German remilitarization, which was a violation of the Treaty of Versailles, the document that formally set the peace terms for the end of World War I.
Germany and Japan voluntarily withdrew from the League in 1933, and Italy left in 1937. The true imperial designs of the Soviet Union soon became apparent with its occupation of eastern Poland in September of 1939, ostensibly with the intention of protecting Russian "blood brothers," Ukrainians and Byelorussians, who were supposedly menaced by the Poles. Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia were then terrorized into signing "mutual assistance" pacts, primarily one-sided agreements that gave the USSR air and naval bases in those countries. But the invasion of Finland, where no provocation or pact could credibly be adduced to justify the aggression, resulted in worldwide reaction. President Roosevelt, although an "ally" of the USSR, condemned the invasion, causing the Soviets to withdraw from the New York World's Fair. And finally, the League of Nations, drawing almost its last breath, expelled it.

Beyond the fact that you are writing an article and are wanting people to do the research for you, there is really no way to answer the question. You have not even given us a definition of "Best." I think most experienced users would have difficulty in finding 10 great conical grinders worth considering.
I would suggest doing some research and coming up with ten of each category you find worthy of consideration, then let people vote for the "best" (whatever that may mean).
To some, best means it creates the best beverage regardless of all other factors. Some would say best is the one that looks best on the counter (yes, really). Others would say the quietest one is the best and nothing else is important.
For example, I have one of the best conical grinders made. If I live to be 100 it will still be going strong and likely with the original burrs. But is is a commercial grinder and most people would find it a pain to use because it is not designed for home use. It also sells for around $1600.
And putting "Manual" in a category of its own is sort of silly. There are manual conical and manual flat burr grinders. So there should be four categories:
-Manual flat burr
-Manual conical burr
-Electric flat burr
-Electric conical burr

TRIPOLI, Libya — Libyan officials say the U.S. ambassador and three other Americans have been killed in an attack on the U.S. consulate in the eastern city of Benghazi by protesters angry over a film that ridiculed Islam's Prophet Muhammad.
The officials say Ambassador Chris Stevens was killed Tuesday night when he and a group of embassy employees went to the consulate to try to evacuate staff. The protesters were firing gunshots and rocket propelled grenades.
All of the officials — three in all — hold senior security positions in Benghazi.
They are deputy interior minister for eastern Libya Wanis al-Sharaf; Benghazi security chief Abdel-Basit Haroun; and Benghazi city council and security official Ahmed Bousinia.

DSOGaming writes: "PC gamers, this is a good day today as Cevat Yerli has finally spilled the beans and revealed why Crysis 2 did not feature huge levels, similar to those found in the first Crysis game. According to Cevat, Crytek believed that the sandbox experienced (offered by both Far Cry and Crysis games) was perceived as something of an elite gamer kind of thing. Crytek got disappointed as other, more linear, games were selling better than Crysis and decided to 'join' them"
Seems like they are doing the same thing but with F2P this round. Go with your Gut and stick with your vision.
Yeah and we totally didn't see through it, and your terrible design strategy as a company has nothing to do with unreal's laughable domination of the cry engine or your best franchises struggling to break even.
Crytek's have to be some of the stupidest developers I've come across. Simply because they have such technical and artistic scope and they piss it all away on a boring linear shooter and then get stunned that their games never sell excessively. There's always some stupid glaringly obvious flaw that just will NOT let their games compete properly on a market. Crysis required a super computer and crysis 2 swapped out good art style for boredom manifest in new York city's grey skies, grey walls and grey everything. They make great games they just can't sell them for shit to make money. Even when they do sell they probably out run budget by two fold.
so instead of creating a unique open world game they decided to follow the herd. see this is why i stick to first party games with the exception of sleeping dogs and fifa13. lack of innovation is only killing our beloved industry
So instead of focusing on what their games great, they decided to make games as generic as possible. They deserve everything they got (or didn't in this case)
DICE did this with BF campaigns as well and they lost their identity to become another scripted linear CoD clone. The whole point of BFBC1 was open world training grounds for MP. Crysis 1 was even more open world fun. These games are getting more and more impossible to play in single player and just jump straight into the multiplayer. They are cliched wastes of time.

Alain Vigneault, John Tortorella coaching swap draws closer
If an official announcement is what it takes, Alain Vigneault isn't the New York Rangers' coach—but he does have a contract, according to multiple reports.
Vigneault, fired earlier this offseason by the Vancouver Canucks after six division titles in seven seasons, has agreed on a five-year deal that would pay "in the $2 million per year range," according to Louis Jean of TVA Sports.
That'd make Vigneault, who made $1.8 million annually in Vancouver, the highest-paid coach in the NHL, and pay him more annually than nine of his players, as Greg Wyshynski noted.
Sportsnet's John Shannon confirmed a five-year, $10 million deal for Vigneault, and said the offer was identical to the one he received (and turned down) from the Dallas Stars. That makes sense, since Vigneault likely wants to win ASAP, and the Rangers are better constructed for that than are the Stars.
The New York Daily News spoke with Rick Bowness, who hired Vigneault with the Ottawa Senators in 1992, then was his top assistant in Vancouver. Bowness, after getting fired from the Canucks, signed on to be the the top assistant for Tampa Bay Lightning coach Jon Cooper.
From the Daily News:
"(Vigneault) been through a lot of pressure situations,†(Boston coach Claude) Julien said. "He can handle a lot of pressure. All the heat that he's had to put up with in Vancouver, he's handled it extremely well, and it never seemed to bother him.â€
Bowness assured that Vigneault is "accommodating†with the media and said, "I think you guys in New York will enjoy working with him.â€
"The media will not intimidate him one bit,†Bowness said, his grin audible. "I never saw one thing that there was something in the media that rattled him. He has thick skin, and he doesn't care. The media will not get to him one bit.â€
That will differentiate him a little from John Tortorella, whom he's replacing, and who ironically is having a second interview with the Canucks this week. The outstanding issue for Tortorella: convincing Canucks GM Mike Gillis that he can "temper his approach" enough for the media scrutiny that comes with coaching in Vancouver, according to The Province's Ben Kuzma.
On paper, Tortorella is, bluntly, a really good coach. If he works with the roster he has in Vancouver—think how he won a Cup with the Lightning in 2004, rather than maxing out with the Rangers in 2012—and chills out a little, it could work. One suggestion from Canucks Army's Thomas Drance: add an experienced coach to the staff.
A veteran assistant could serve as a buffer to help insulate Tortorella from the press, and also to act as a check on Tortorella's Red Foreman teaching style. Tortorella is a damn fine hockey coach, but perhaps his bad cop act would go down easier if he was given a good cop foil.
Other reported candidates for the Canucks job: LA Kings assistant and former Flyers head coach John Stevens, former Stars coach Glen Gulutzan, former Blue Jackets coach Scott Arniel and former Sabres coach Lindy Ruff.

text: I am hopping that since this is all alpha there will be more attack animations later down the road when they put out new previews. The game looks solid so far in terms of spells and music, and the looks. and the structure of things. Maybe what it might even come down to is they will hopefully polish missing pieces and bad animations. I think it is still possible for this to happen. here is to hopping, I know this can be a very good game!

Pentecost (May 27, 2007)
Orthodox Christians have a particular way of expressing our submission and obedience to God. We do this in a small way by bowing our heads. Repeatedly throughout our worship, we hear the priest or deacon say, "Let us bow our heads to the Lord." This petition occurs right before a prayer in which we usually ask for something. We ask for things from God because we realize: 1) that we are powerless to obtain them and, 2) God has the power to grant them. Bowing our heads is physical way of expressing our words and emphasizing that we don't necessarily deserve what we ask for. Bowing expressed our humility before God and says in effect: "God you are greater than me. I need you."
We also express our submission and obedience to God by bending our knees or kneeling. At every Divine Liturgy, during the Small Entrance of the Gospel, we sing "Come let us bow down to Christ and worship Him the Son of God ... " It comes directly from Psalm 95:6-7 "Oh come let us worship and bow down; Let us kneel before the Lord our Maker. For He is our God, and we are the people of His pasture and the sheep of His Hand." The words we use in the Greek are proskyneisomen which means "worship," and prospesomen which literally means "to fall down".
At the end of the Divine Liturgy today, we will pray a portion of the Kneeling Vespers of Pentecost. Before each Kneeling Prayer, the priest or deacon will say, "On bended knee let us pray to the Lord." What will we be asking from God in these prayers?
The First Kneeling Prayer acknowledges that Jesus Christ kneeled when praying to His Father in the Garden of Gethsemane (Luke 22:41). We ask God to 1) hear us; 2) accept us; 3) forget our sins; 4) purge our sinful thoughts; 5) make us worthy to return to Him; 6) visit us; 7) free us from the devil; 8) make our lives secure in His holy and sacred laws; 9) entrust us to a guardian angel; 10) gather us into His Kingdom; 11) grant us forgiveness; and 12) cleanse us by the Holy Spirit.
In the Second Kneeling Prayer we ask God to: 1) teach us how to pray and what to pray for; 2) govern our life, 3) make known the way we should walk; 4) grant us wisdom; 5) renew our spirit, 6) make our mind firm; 7) not to be fooled by worldly delights; 8) to desire enjoyment of future and heavenly treasures; 9) grant mercy; 10) make us holy; 11) extend a helping hand to us; and 12) Accept our prayer.
The Third Kneeling Prayer, interestingly, is for our departed loved ones, in which we ask God to: 1) give rest to their souls; 2) place their names in the book of life; and 3) forgive their sins. No doubt this final prayer is also for us as we anticipate the time when we will leave this earthly life and join our departed loved ones.
Kneeling down in worship in church and reciting the prayers are only two of the three components in being submissive, obedient and humble before God. The third element is the actions of our life once we walk up into the social hall and out the doors back to our homes and daily life.
How will God hear us if we never talk to Him in prayer each day? He cannot accept us if we do not come to Him. He cannot forget our sins if we keep committing the same ones over and over again. God cannot purge our sinful thoughts if keep holding on to them. He cannot make our lives secure if we keep ignoring His sacred and holy commandments. He cannot forgive us if we do not forgive others.
God can cleanse us if we bathe in the Sacrament of Holy Confession. He can teach us how to pray and what to pray for if we regularly practice prayer.

I was told by my doctor to use head and shoulders. It worked better than anything else I have tried.
Let's Go >>
How do I treat cradle cap?
What are some easy remedies for treating cradle cap?
baby oil and a soft brush. Good luck and God bless!
so far the gentle naturals shampoo is doing the job i choose it becase its free of dyes, fragrance and paraben free along with this I also put vaseline on her hair to give an extra boost to loosen up the scales. it takes some time though i wish they never had to go threw that. I've ben thinking of using head & shoulders my pediatrician suggested it because it contains selenium i'll try that next if this fails.
Nothing worked on my LO until I smeared her head with Vasoline and let her sleep with it on her head overnight. I put an old sheet on her crib so it wouldn't stain her nice ones. In the morning, I took a fine-tooth comb and combed it out. It comes right out, but it's dead skin, so it's kind of gross.
To wash it out, use dish soap.
one of my twin 3 month old babies has it. my mother-in-law just scrubed it lightly while giving him a bath. It made it flaky but it's starting to look better now. my doctor told me that i can leave it alone and it'll go away or scrub it gently with baby oil.
A natural method is to make a paste using baking soda and a small amount of water (to get it to a paste consistency). Smear this on your baby's head and leave for a minute before rinsing off. You can do this on alternate days until the cradle cap levels reduce. I found it much easier to do during bath time for obvious reasons.
That was also my problem with my baby when he was 2months old. I used baby oil & massage his head, it only worked for a while & cradle crap comes back again.. Someone recommended me to use a very small amount of selsun blue twice a week (the red cap/medicated) and it worked miraculously on his second bath,and on the third it's all gone and never come back again.
It sounds harsh, but try using Selsun Blue shampoo. My doc recommended it for one of my kids when they were little.
I use olive oil on their head and comb it out. Try not to comb to hard cause it can be attached to hair so it can pull out their hair. :( which isn't good! Also we went camping and my youngest hair got oily on it's own and the cradle cap started coming out.
I did the same (apply olive oil and brush it gently) and it worked perfectly.
As above olive oil ad comb through gently
I used baby oil and the little blue brush the hospital gave it's all the same just as long as it's oily and gently brush out treat it atleast daily and it will cure quickly...
I also used baby oil with a stage 1 toothbrush (very soft) and gently scrubbed my sons head in circles. It came right off and never came back!

This question may expose my ignorance on programming but I'm curious about how people are using different python data structures within ArcPy.
This page lists the data structures in Python. I understand how lists can be implemented in GIS (list of feature classes, list of feature types, list of data frames, etc). I understand how sets can be used as well (to remove duplicates). How are people implementing tuples, dictionaries, and other data structures within ArcPy? Also, are there other examples of lists and sets which I haven't listed?
Furthermore, no doubt, people are creating custom classes in ArcPy. Under what circumstances and situations do you require these? Can you provide examples? Is anyone creating custom classes which inherit from the built-in arcpy classes?
I don't require answers to all of these questions, I'm just curious how people are using Python in GIS and what workflows require these customizations.

Tilden Carousel Reopens
After undergoing a $700,000 renovation, which lasted nearly nine months, the rare 1911 Herschell-Spillman Menagerie edition merry-go-round has reopened in Tilden Park.
The East Bay Regional Parks District unveiled the restored carousel Oct. 4 and announced that it would turn into a "Scary-Go-Round" on special nights this month to put visitors in the mood for Halloween.
The hundreds who hiked or drove up to Grizzly Peak Boulevard last weekend to get spooked in the moonlight caught a glimpse of the antique carousel's remodeled hardwood floors and renovated band organ sheltered inside a brand new state-of-the-art weatherproof glass enclosure, a feature park officials said was inspired by the carousels at Golden Gate Park and the Yerba Buena Gardens in San Francisco.
Restoring the carousel's nearly century-old wooden platform was no easy task, said Dan Horenberger, who was hired by the parks district to carry out the renovation.
"To replace the floor we had to use the same type of wood that was originally there," he said. "That stuff is not made anymore and costs thousands and thousands of dollars. We also had to make sure that the platform was the same size as the old one."
A quick trip to Oregon in search of the perfect vertical grain fir turned into four long months, the time required to cut the wood in a special way to keep it from being angular and riddled with knots.
If that wasn't tedious enough, Horenberger had to take the 1909 band organ completely apart and rebuild it from scratch.
"It has thousands and thousands of parts inside it," he said. "It's an automatic music machine—an organ which plays by itself."
According to Jeff Wilson, unit manager for Tilden Park, the enclosure was built to protect the carousel from the elements.
"I am so happy with it," said Anne Scherr, the district's chief of maintenance and skilled trades, who oversaw the building of the enclosure.
"It does the job of protecting the carousel and also reflects the original architecture. I had really high hopes for the project but the architects and craftsmen really did an outstanding job. The merry-go-round is really important to so many people, we all wanted it to be perfect."
Horenberger, who has maintained the Tilden Park Carousel for the last three decades, said the carousel's gears and bearings had been replaced three years ago to make the machine mechanically safe.
"There were new ride laws and we had to bring the carousel up to code," he said. "That was the first phase of the renovation. This year we replaced the platform and rebuilt the band organ."
The carousel closed down for a short while in February 2007 when state officials mandated that a fence be installed around it to comply with the state Division of Occupational Safety and Health.
That suggestion, Horenberger said, sparked the need for a temporary fence which he hopes will become a more permanent structure when park officials raise funds for the next series of renovations over the next couple of years.
"That will be the final phase," he said. "We will also be painting all the horses and other animals then."
The carousel's handcarved frogs, zebras, sea serpents, roosters and horses were inspired by whimsical characters from turn of the century nursery themes, and restoring each figure will take up to 60 to 80 hours—about the same amount of time it took to carve each of them.
Each animal was handcarved from poplar in as many as 100 separate pieces, park officials said.
The Tilden carousel—which has a total of 54 animals, 14 made of fiberglass and 40 of wood—is valued at $2.5 million today and is said to draw an estimated 150,000 people a year.
Built by the Herschell-Spillman Company of North Tonawanda, New York for Ross Davis in 1911, the Tilden Park carousel debuted in San Bernardino County, where it operated from 1912 to 1916 in a trolley park in Urbita Springs.
Its next stop was San Diego but unfavorable weather forced its owners to dismantle and store it until 1935, at which point it traveled to Griffith Park in Los Angeles.
When a much bigger carousel replaced it two years later, the Carousel was brought to Tilden Park and has been there ever since, mesmerizing young and old alike with its fairytale-like lights and music.
"There's no other form of entertainment like a carousel," Horenberger said. "It transcends generations. I can go to Tilden Park today and see four generations of the same family riding the carousel. There's no other place you will see that."
The carousel was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.
"The carousel is the Park District's most beloved asset," said District General Manager Pat O'Brien.
"As with any antique, it requires continuous repair and renovation. We've restored various components of the carousel over the years, including replacing mechanical workings. But, this new enclosure is by far the largest undertaking of its kind, and definitely the most important. Thankfully, we received the funding from Measure CC and also a large grant to enable us to move forward."
Funding from the project came from Measure CC, a parcel tax measure passed by voters in 2004, an American Express Partners in Preservation grant, the Regional Parks Foundation and the park district.
Terri Holleman—who has leased the ride from the parks district for the last 15 years—said visitors had been treated to cocoa and hot apple cider during the Scary-Go-Round ride last weekend.
"The lights were dimmed—we scaled down the scare factor of course, keeping in mind our target audience," she said. "But all over the new carousel looked beautiful, simply beautiful."
Carousel "Scary-Go-Round": 5:30-8:30 p.m. every Friday, Saturday and Sunday through Oct. 31.
Carousel "Christmas Fantasy": 5:30-8:30 p.m., Nov. 28-Dec. 23.
After the New Year, the carousel will be open on the weekends, weather permitting. It will be open daily after Memorial Day. $2 ride (all riders must pay) or $10 for a seven-ride ticket book.

The Oxford History of Australia
Geoffrey Curgenven Bolton
Oxford University Press Australia & New Zealand, 1988 - History - 368 pages
Late nineteenth-century Australia claimed one of the world's highest standards of living and was seen as one of the most successful examples of the transplantation of British culture. Yet beneath the surface prosperity, there lay a great deal of uncertainty and conflict, including clashes among churches, the crash of the 1890s, pressure for federation, and the challenging of traditional views of education, women's roles, and the family. This volume takes a skeptical look at many of the common perceptions of Australia in the Victorian era, concentrating on human values rather than on the rhetoric of national achievement.

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa, owned by Boyd Gaming Corp's and MGM Resorts, said it received the first Internet gaming permit ever in New Jersey from the state's Division of Gaming Enforcement.
New Jersey last February became the third state after Nevada and Delaware to legalize online gambling, but the casino industry views New Jersey as the most lucrative opportunity based on size and the fact its law encompasses many forms of gambling, while Nevada's regulations, by contrast, allows online poker only.
Nevada was the first to go live with online gambling in April when Station Casinos launched the first offering known as UltimatePoker.com. New Jersey is expected to go live in late November with Internet gaming.
Borgata, one of the 12 hotel-casinos in New Jersey's Atlantic City, said it had worked closely with the division throughout the process. A spokeswoman for the division confirmed it was the first Internet gaming permit to be issued by the state.
The gaming enforcement division has said Internet gambling, limited to the 12 hotel-casinos and their partners, will begin in New Jersey on November 26, after a trial period to make sure things work properly.
Analysts estimate that Nevada's online gambling market will yield $50 million to $250 million in annual revenue, while New Jersey's will generate $500 million to $1 billion yearly.
Other operators that applied to offer online gaming include Caesars Entertainment; Donald Trump's Trump Entertainment Resorts; the Tropicana Casino and Resort, sold in a bankruptcy sale to a group of creditors led by Carl Icahn in 2009; and The Golden Nugget, owned by Landry's Inc.
Off-shore poker websites such as PokerStars were the forces behind the last online poker boom, starting around 2003. But that all changed on April 15, 2011, which is known in the industry as "Black Friday," when the U.S. Department of Justice indicted the founders of several sites on charges of bank fraud, money laundering and illegal gambling offenses.
The sites were closed to U.S. online players, and now companies such as PokerStars are trying re-enter the market through potential partnerships in the United States.
Resorts Casino Hotel has joined with PokerStars, which had tried to buy the Atlantic Club Casino Hotel earlier this year before the deal fell apart.
The trade group for the U.S. Casino industry, the American Gaming Association, asked New Jersey regulators in March to reject a petition by PokerStars for interim authorization to buy the Atlantic Club, a small casino in Atlantic City.
PokerStars has said its deal with Resorts is pending approval by the New Jersey regulators.
The Borgata is partnering with Bwin.party Digital Entertainment Plc for its online gambling offering. The state's other casinos will also partner with online gaming companies.
"This is a big step towards the opening of the regulated market for online gaming in New Jersey next month," said a spokesman for Bwin.Party.
Gamblers would have to be physically in New Jersey to play.
"We're location-enabling Boyd and other applicants there. New Jersey is aggressively moving forward," said Rip Gerber, founder and CEO of Locaid, which helps companies locate their customers, employees and assets through location technologies.
