Firefighters made progress battling a brush fire in Southwest Miami-Dade on Sunday, with crews working to keep the flames from spreading to nearby homes.
The fire broke out shortly after 1 p.m. near Southwest 112th Avenue and 224th Street. By late Sunday, the 35-acre fire was 75 percent contained, Miami-Dade fire officials said. No homes were threatened, but the Florida Department of Forestry said several homeowners voluntarily left the area.
Were keeping an eye on things, said Erik De Lacatena, a Miami-Dade Fire Rescue dispatcher. There are several hot spots that still need to be taken out.
Streets in the area were closed while firefighters worked to contain the blaze, according to WFOR- CBS4.
Miami-Dade Fire Rescue Chief Phil Osava said the fire might have been caused by dry conditions.

HD Windwaker looks amazing and that game is so expensive if you want to track it down. Such an amazing game that was under appreciated at the time.
The new Sim City looks awesome. Hopefully it's not disappointing like Sim City 4.
Also Nintendo made a crap ton of announcements today including an HD Windwaker remake, new Zelda, new Yoshi game, new SSB...
Dammit now I have to save up for a Wii U.
HD Windwaker looks amazing and that game is so expensive if you want to track it down. Such an amazing game that was under appreciated at the time.
Agreed. I think I still have my gamecube copy somewhere.
I'm really hoping that they update the music along with the graphics, not as in change the music but re-record it with an actual orchestra.
Wow squenix is actually rebuilding final fantasy 14 from scratch. What a crazy bold move.
Wheren't they doing that a long time ago... like from the first beta?
I bought Wind Waker along with the Master Quest thing for like $4 a couple of years back, second hand...
Just realised it's now about $70-80 on ebay here.
WTF, did retro hipsters just make me money? x_x
Why? I mean, the game hasn't sold anything and it looks like they have wasted a bunch of money to just fix the problems, and now to waste more to try to adapt it to a new engine? I mean, as I see it they are just losing money but for a reason they are still trying to make it work.
Why is a good question because square is notorious for not giving fans what they want.

Getting started
Out on the water, sailing can be different things to different people. It can be exciting, invigorating, relaxing or challenging. And getting started is easy! Sailing includes a wide range of boat types, and any would be appropriate for a beginner to start sailing. US SAILING even maintains a national database of places to go sailing or take courses. Let's take a look:
Small Boats
Small Sailing Boats - "Centerboards" and "Daysailing Keelboats"
Small boats, for many, are a simple and inexpensive way to get started in sailing. It is here that the basics of sailing are most easily learned. Some small boats are designed specifically for youth, but most provide a lifetime of enjoyment for adults too.
Generally, small boats, are under 25 feet in length. They include a wide assortment of dinghies (open cockpit), daysailers (with foredecks and gear enclosures) and small day sailing keelboats. Because of their size and simplicity, many small sailboats can be sailed single handed or with a single crewmember. Their performance, depending on design, may range from 'stable and relaxing' to 'wet and wild'.
Many instructional programs teach on and/or rent small boats including a majority of community sailing programs, most yacht club junior programs, and an assortment of aquatic centers, camps, parks & recreation departments, Y's, Scout programs, university and military recreation facilities.

Keelboats - "Basic Keelboats to Large Cruising Yachts"
The term 'Keelboat" refers to those sailboats which have a weighted keel (the vertical fin at the bottom of the boat) . So, "basic" keelboats are most commonly larger than the centerboard and dinghy class of vessel and start at about 20' in length and go up to about 30' in length.
Beyond the "basic" keelboat, the term keelboat continues to describe sailing vessels and yachts through much larger sizes. A common way of describing the next class of keelboats from about 30' - 60' is "Cruising" keelboats. All cruising keelboats have auxiliary engines, with most over 30' in length employing an inboard diesel engine. Most over 30' usually have a wheel steering system. Also, these cruising vessels are usually set up for the possibility of multiple day trips aboard and include many of the modern conveniences found in a home: pressurized hot and cold water, cooking facilities - oven and stove, sleeping quarters, and private bathrooms with showers.

Getting certified
Windsurfers are are a fun and affordable way to experience the thrill of sailing. Typically, windsurfers are "boards", much like a surfboard. They come in various sizes and widths, which help define the level of skill needed to ride each one. The beginning windsurf boards are wider and longer than the advanced boards and are great for people new to the sport. Colorful, fast, and close to the water, windsurfing is enjoyed by people of all ages.
While traditional sailing is fun, there is nothing like the thrill and excitement of sailing a multihull, big or small. Multihulls come in quite a variety – there are catamarans (those with two hulls) and trimarans (those with three hulls). They also come in many sizes. For example, catamarans can be as small as 9 feet in length and have been built to over 100 feet. Most smaller cats are referred to as beach cats, running in size from about 13 feet to around 21 feet.
Above the 21-foot category is a plethora of multihulls (both cats and tris) that are designed for a vast number of purposes. Some are designed to be light, fast and are usually used for racing. Others are designed with lots of room, heavily built and are great for cruising because they have so much living space within them, plus an awesome amount of deck space. For the cruiser, you simply cannot beat the room below and on deck; the comfort of not rocking-and-rolling at anchor; and the best part of multihulls is they are not always leaning over when there is wind.

I have split the small file into small and large maps.
There was an issue in the upscaling from the small to the large and this has been resolved so that there is no longer a one pixel border showing on the left or bottom of the large map.
The master files are now in .png format, but the tests 88s are in opn jpg.
I have also taken the XML to version 9 (AndrewB's last version was V8) now, and i think the centering is more complete now, although i'd like someone with really good eyes to cast that overview please.
KTM -> KRT (as per map) has also been rectified.
And hoping that we get an upload soon , i think Forza AZ has checked the XML and is OK with that ??

In early June, a few weeks before Michael Shannon moved back to Chicago for the summer, he could be found at home on a Saturday morning padding about, doing chores, soaking in a relatively unscheduled moment of free time.
This was before the release of "Man of Steel" (in which he plays the evil General Zod), before A Red Orchid Theatre begins previews for "Simpatico" (in which he returns to the Old Town-based company he helped co-found 20 years ago), before HBO premieres the fourth season of "Boardwalk Empire" (in which he plays a puritanical Prohibition agent turned bootlegger) and before Corporal, his sometime folk-rock band, could rehearse for a planned July gig at the Metro. This was right before the Summer of Shannon.
You could find him in Red Hook, his low-lying, outlying neighborhood on the far western edge of Brooklyn, better known for its shipping warehouses, gang flare-ups and crumbling cobblestone lanes than families, hipsters and movie stars.
Specifically, you could find him at the edge of the water, at the end of the last street, above a supermarket where he lives in a 19th-century shipping warehouse with Steppenwolf Theatre ensemble member Kate Arrington and Sylvia, their 5-year-old daughter. He leaned out of a bay window and waved me up. At the door he said, in his implacable croak: "It was Sylvie's birthday. Things are a mess; she got a lot of stuff."
He stepped aside to reveal a large three-room apartment turned over to pink, turquoise, frilly ballerina fabrics, Mylar balloons and impromptu galleries of children's art covering the walls, tacked to thick pine railroad beams.
Ocean air wafted in.
A tugboat crawled past the window.
The Statue of Liberty stood just beyond.
"It's nice here," he growled. "I once told New York magazine I was sick of looking at the Statue of Liberty. Got a bunch of (expletive) for it too." He walked to the kitchen and called his daughter: "Sylvie, clean this up. Don't just leave things there, OK?" Then he turned back: "So, you want me to make ya some breakfast?"
Two things come to mind:
No. 1: It's a good time to be Michael Shannon. At 38, after a couple of decades as a fixture on Chicago stages and a growing presence in movies, he's becoming a household name, Hollywood's go-to guy for unsettling men of surprising depth, a next-gen Christopher Walken. He has a blockbuster and a hit TV series to his name. The Funny or Die video of him reading an email from a profane sorority girl recently became one of the most watched videos on the website, with almost 4 million views. And starting Thursday at Red Orchid (through Aug. 25), he's appearing opposite his best friend, actor Guy Van Swearingen, in Sam Shepard's "Simpatico." (In a clever bit of scheduling, Arrington also will spend the summer in Chicago, in Steppenwolf's "Belleville.")
No. 2: Almost nothing about Shannon conforms to his on- and off-screen image as an intense mystery of a guy, steeped in pain, and almost nothing about that image feels entirely misplaced. As Arrington said later: "Mike has a high level of anxiety. He might seem chill, but he is anxious, as anyone would be who grew up as he did, always worried about others, angry. He hates that view of himself as a guy just a bit off, playing guys a bit off. But the thing is, Mike is off. He is not a normal person! He sees the world differently."
Terence Winter, creator of "Boardwalk Empire," said: "I first saw Michael in Tracy Letts' 'Bug' in New York. It was a small theater, and Michael played this paranoid guy, and I remember thinking, 'That couldn't be acting.' I left seriously convinced that they had cast an actual emotionally disturbed individual. He was frightening."
Shannon washed dishes. I sat at the kitchen table. Physically, he reminded me of a Pez dispenser, thin with a large head, not nearly as imposing as he comes across on a screen or stage. He seemed casual yet intense, friendly yet quizzical.
Danny Jelinek, the Columbia College graduate who directed Shannon's sorority-email video, told me that Shannon had been at the top of Funny or Die's list of actors to work with, yet Shannon himself is not online-friendly, carries an ancient cellphone, has never tweeted a day in his life. His texts arrive with smiley emoticons.
"I find Michael very hard to read," said Paul Rudd, a longtime friend and co-star last fall in the Broadway production of "Grace." "He is extremely kind, with a completely unique sense of humor. Yet other times you realize how guarded he is, that you have no idea what he is thinking. He always leaves you guessing a bit."
Even his apartment, far from a subway line, above a market, is less than obvious. I asked why he and Arrington moved here. He thought a second, then asked Arrington's cousin (helping out while Arrington was in Chicago rehearsing) to watch Sylvie. "Come on," he said to me. We took an elevator to the roof. "Crap," he said, pulling on locked patio doors. A storm the night before had left a large puddle. We took the elevator back down to the lobby. A guard said the patio was too wet. "Nah," Shannon said, "look, it's fine up there!"
The man shrugged.
Shannon turned to me: "Let's walk. I'm a walker."
We left, walked past the supermarket, headed into the neighborhood. I had no idea where we were going. He walked with a brisk, stiff-legged gait, and a block later I looked down: He was wearing only socks, no shoes.

Microsoft have been in the hardware business since 1982. The majority of their hardware designs are for mice and keyboards, and I've owned a few over the years. The last set that I bought was the Arc Keyboard and Arc Mouse for our HTPC. I liked the minimalist design and small dimensions of the Arc Keyboard, and the Arc Mouse is neat, but I need to put the mouse down onto a flat surface to use it.
Now, Microsoft has announced a new All-in-One Media keyboard. It combines a keyboard and an integrated multi-touch trackpad in one, with dedicated keys for Windows 8.1 and media controls. Sounds like an ideal device as an upgrade for our HTPC. I'm already often using the Arc Keyboard with my ThinkPad Tablet 2 when I want to type long documents.
I'm just a bit surprised that the A-i-O Media Keyboard is not backlit. I would have thought that this would be a natural design feature for a keyboard intended to be used with HPTCs in a darkened room.
I also notice that Microsoft have apparently built this keyboard for giants. According to the current product page, the keyboard is huge: 30.56 inches wide by 10.98 inches deep. This must be an error; the metric measurements are a much more reasonable 36.68 cms. by 13.18 cms.

All toilets after 1992 use less water.
Your 1958 bowl, has a deep pool of water, and may use 5-7 gallons on the flush.
Lots of water is always good.
We have an ST743SD which I installed about two years ago. The other end of the house has a Kohler Wellworth(?) toilet that is original to the 1958 house. The Toto retains marks in the bowl about 90% of the time after a bowel movement, while the original toilet almost never does. I have tried flushing before using as well as flushing during use to try to alleviate the problem but to no avail. This is not a chronic problem when using toilets elsewhere. I am wondering if there is perhaps a problem with our toilet, as other reviews don't seem to indicate this being a problem with this model? I have been happy with every other aspect of the toilet, and it ALWAYS removes all the contents of the bowl, even if it leaves a reminder that they were there.
All toilets after 1992 use less water.
Your 1958 bowl, has a deep pool of water, and may use 5-7 gallons on the flush.
Lots of water is always good.
Hmm, a drake has a fairly good bowl wash. Perhaps you need to try a different seat. The Toto soft close seats tend to position you (once you learn how to sit on them properly) over the water spot a bit better than a normal flat seat. Otherwise if it bothers you that much, it might be worth it to try a different model with a sanagloss coating.
Broken promises don't upset me. I just think, why did they believe me? -Jack Handy
I flush twice or even 3 times when it's a stainer...

We've got a Buderus G115 that was installed shortly before we moved in a few months ago. My wife noticed this evening that we lost hot water and when I checked the boiler, the display showed 'burner error' and the [incorrect] time was flashing. As per the manual, I pressed the reset button, but that did nothing. I put in a call to the tech that has serviced this house in the past and he suggested that I shut it off for 5 minutes and then try again, and told me to call him back then. I left him voice mail, but I'm wondering if there is anything I can do to manually run hot water in the meantime (it's Sunday evening and I'm not expecting a call back at this point). The owner's manual seems to be pretty vague about these error codes. I also switched it to manual mode, as per the manual, but I'm not sure what that does.
Anything I should check for?

Washington, DC -
06/13/2012 - Australia is expected to announce an historic decision today to create the world's largest network of marine protected areas, including a massive fully protected marine reserve in the Coral Sea, a move hailed by the Pew Environment Group.The Coral Sea no-take marine reserve, known in Australia as a national park zone, would span 503,000 square kilometers (194,000 square miles) and will be the world's second largest fully protected no-take marine reserve. This is part of a larger marine protected area in the Coral Sea, which is nearly 1 million square kilometers (386,100 square miles) in area.Australia's Coral Sea, located east of the world-famous Great Barrier Reef, is recognized as the country's marine jewel and one of the world's last intact tropical ocean ecosystems.As nations gather in Rio de Janeiro for the U.N. Conference on Sustainable Development, Australia has made it clear that ocean conservation and management are critical to the world's economic prosperity and environmental health."Once again, Australia is leading the world in protecting its marine environment and the unique wildlife it contains," said Joshua Reichert, managing director of the Pew Environment Group. "The Coral Sea joins the growing number of large, fully protected marine reserves in the world, adding to the emerging recognition of the need to conserve the special places in our ocean."Roughly equivalent to the size of Spain, the Coral Sea fully protected marine reserve will be safeguarded from all extractive activity, including mining, oil and gas development, and fishing. In addition, its creation will ensure the protection of more than a third of its fragile coral reefs."The Coral Sea is one of Australia's natural icons and one of the last remaining places on Earth with healthy populations of large ocean-voyaging species, such as deepwater sharks, tuna, and marlin," said Imogen Zethoven of the Pew Environment Group in Australia. "By creating the Coral Sea marine national park, the Australian government has demonstrated global leadership in ocean protection."Through efforts led by the Pew Environment Group, more than 486,900 people from across Australia and around the world publicly declared their support for strong protection of the Coral Sea. This is the highest level of public support ever received by the Australian government on an environmental issue. In addition, more than 300 marine scientists from 35 countries, including Australia, endorsed the need for protecting the Coral Sea."Australia's announcement today is groundbreaking and builds on the country's legacy of environmental protection," said Michelle Grady of the Pew Environment Group in Australia. "The scale of protection is unparalleled and is vital to ensuring the long-term health of Australia's unique marine life."The Pew Environment Group has led efforts to protect Australia's Coral Sea and the country's southwestern, northern, and northwestern marine regions in partnership with an alliance of Australian and international environmental organizations.

Each issue carries an
from the
Archdiocese of Cincinnati.
Reprinting prohibited
by Patrick McCloskey, O.F.M.
Nowhere are the tensions within the Catholic Church
more obvious than in the ways different Catholics approach the
Mass. Forming factions around the Eucharist occurred already in
the time of St. Paul (1 Corinthians 11). In some places it is
still going on. Today some Catholics stress the Eucharist as a
meal; others counter that it is a sacrifice. Still
others choose the middle ground (the Eucharist is meant to be
both) only to get caught in an ideological cross fire.
For many Catholics, "sacrifice" evokes ideas of a
distant God, awe and reverence, mystery, sacred place, the proper
intercessor, and the importance of correct ritual. "Meal" seems
to emphasize a close God, fellowship with him, an equality among
participants in the celebration, and informal ritual.
"The Mass has lost that special feeling," observe
some Catholics. "The old sense of mystery has disappeared. They've
hidden the tabernacle, turned the altar into a table, dropped
the bells at the consecration, and interrupted our quiet preparation
for Communion with a handshake of peace. Look how people come
dressed for Mass now! Reverence has vanished; it's more like a
social hour. Today's Mass doesn't suggest any sense of awe or
sharing in an eternal sacrifice."
This Update will try to shed some light on
the true meaning of sacrifice, what the Bible says about it and
how the Mass today is indeed a sacrifice. Posing "meal" and "sacrifice"
as bitter rivals is a mistaken opposition, a drain on badly-needed
energies, and is contrary to the scriptural view of sacrifice.
Just What Is Sacrifice?
A good working definition of sacrifice
is the offering of a gift back to God as an expression of our
desire for union with him. The sacrifice is not a substitute
for the person offering it but rather is the real sign of his or
her self-offering. Sacrifice, therefore, always involves an inner
conversion or renewal.
To show how our thinking about sacrifice
has developed in recent times, let's go back to the definition given
by the Baltimore Catechism: "The offering of a victim by
a priest to God alone, and the destruction of it in some way to
acknowledge that he is the Creator and Lord of all things" (Q.926).
Such a definition suggests that the most important elements of sacrifice
are the proper person offering it and the destruction of the victim
to show God's lordship over all things.
Yet John McKenzie (Dictionary of the
Bible), John Castelot (Jerome Biblical Commentary) and
Robert Daly (The Origins of the Christian Doctrine of Sacrifice)
agree that destruction is not the main object of sacrifice. The
gift to God alone and union with him is the main object.
Genuine sacrifice prompts the person to live in a new way. Thus,
strictly speaking, sacrifice is not something God needs; we need
to offer sacrifice.
What the Bible Says About Sacrifice
Nowhere does the Bible define sacrifice, but the subject
comes up frequently. From Scripture's various statements and prescriptions
about sacrifice, we can draw some fairly certain conclusions.
For example, we can say what biblical sacrifice is
not. It is not an effort to feed a hungry god. The Book
of Daniel (chapter 1 4) tells us how Daniel proved that the Babylonian
god Bel did not eat the 40 sheep and the flour and wine left in
his temple each day. Footprints in the ashes on the floor proved
the priests and their families were eating the food. Psalm 50
has God say, "If I were hungry, I should not tell you, for mine
are the world and its fullness" (v. 12). Nor is sacrifice offered
to appease or soothe an angry god. These ideas of sacrifice
are basically pagan.
Biblical sacrifice acknowledges one God as the giver
of every gift. In Israelite religion the offering of wine, grain
and animals shows God's lordship over all creation. Offering some
gifts back to God gave the people some sense of union with him.
Ancient Hebrew sacrifices renewed the covenant (union) made at
Mt. Sinai, the covenant which established the Israelites as God's
chosen people.
At first the descendants of Abraham offered sacrifices
for the benefit of the entire nation. Gradually they began to
realize that they should offer sacrifices not only for the sins
of the nation but also for the sins of individuals. Such
sacrifices showed that the person wanted to reestablish a right
relationship with God. Hebrew sacrifices stress the giving
(focus on God) and not the giving up (focus on self). Often
an animal was killed so that its blood (life itself) could be
offered to God. The death of the animal was not emphasized;
giving it completely to God was. Offering correct sacrifices was
important; the entire Book of Leviticus records laws governing
Some of the Israelites, however, eventually fell into
the trap of considering important only the externals of sacrificefor
example, the correct time of month, the proper number and kind
of animals, and so on. The inner devotion represented by
the sacrifice decreased.
Getting Sacrifice Back on the Right
Against these abuses the prophets protested. Hosea
quotes God: "What can I do with you, Ephraim? What am I to do
with you, Judah? Your piety is like a morning cloud, like the
dew that passes early away. For this reason I smote them through
the prophets. I slew them by the words of my mouth.
"For it is love that I desire, not sacrifice,
and knowledge of God rather than holocausts" (6:4-6). Elsewhere
God complains about the ritually correct sacrifices many of his
people are offering while still clinging to their sins. "Put away
your misdeeds from before my eyes; cease doing evil," God commands
(Isaiah 1:16).
In biblical religion genuine sacrifice is linked to
God-centered lives of goodness and justice. After spurning the
sacrifices of his people, God says in Amos, "But if you would
offer me holocausts, then let justice surge like water, and goodness
like an unfailing stream" (5:24). The prophet Micah describes
a man wondering which sacrifice would please God. God replies,
"You have been told, O man, what is good, and what the Lord requires
of you: Only to do right and to love goodness and to walk humbly
with your God" (6:8).
With this background from the Hebrew Scriptures, we
can better understand how Jesus regarded sacrifice.
Jesus and Sacrifice
Jesus repeated the prophets' criticism of sacrifice
by quoting Hosea 6:6 ("It is love I desire, not sacrifice") when
questioned by the Pharisees about fasting (Matthew 9:13 and 12:7).
Father John McKenzie, a noted U.S. biblical scholar, says that
Jesus' insistence on the need for genuine interior piety is entirely
in harmony with what the prophets taught about sacrifice.
Jesus spoke prophetically when he emphasized the closeness
of sacrifice and love of one's neighbor: "If you bring your gift
to the altar and there recall that your brother has anything against
you, leave your gift at the altar, go first to be reconciled with
your brother, and then come and offer your gift" (Matthew 5:23-24).
Jesus himself was the best of all biblical sacrifices.
He lived in loving obedience and service to the Father, even to
suffering death for the sake of all sinners. Truly God and truly
human, Jesus by his life, death and resurrection offered a sacrifice
which was unique and therefore unrepeatable (Hebrews 9:25-28).
According to John's Gospel, Jesus in his public life and in his
death was like the Passover lamb. Jesus' life (blood) was poured
out completely. Jesus' sacrifice, however, was a voluntary one;
he freely went to his death.
The writers of the New Testament saw Jesus' entire
life as a sacrifice. They used the terms common to sacrifice to
describe his life, death and resurrection. Jesus commanded his
apostles, "Do this in memory of me." This command referred not
only to the Eucharist; it included imitating Jesus by handing
over their lives in obedience to the Father and in service to
the community. In fact, Jesus gave no detailed ritual for the
Eucharist. And for up to 40 years after Jesus' resurrection, the
Christians around Jerusalem continued to join in the Temple sacrifices
at the same time they were celebrating the Eucharist in their
homes. These Christians saw no contradiction in this because whether
they celebrated the Eucharist or worshiped in the Temple, the
goal of sacrifice was the same in each case: honoring the giver
of all gifts and being united with him through inner conversion
to his ways.
True Sacrifice: Praise and Conversion
The center of biblical sacrifice for both the Jews
and the early Christians was acknowledging the Giver of all and
seeking a conversion of heart which leads to a renewal
of love and service. Ritual (the pattern of offering sacrifice)
may help that conversion, but going through the motions of ritual
cannot substitute for a heart renewed. Those offering sacrifice
are to allow God's grace to transform their lives. If the sacrifice
does not result in changed lives, then those who offered it have
put an obstacle in God's way, and so the sacrifice has been incomplete.
In his book already mentioned, Robert Daly writes
that the New Testament idea of sacrifice is basically not liturgical
or cultic (that is, concerned with the details of how
to offer it), but rather ethical (concerned with making
one's entire life a gift to God and a service to all his people).
St. Paul, for example, spent more time telling his
converts in Corinth what kind of loving attitude should characterize
their celebration of the Eucharist than giving them detailed instructions
about the ritual to be used. Loving service cannot be faked; ritual
Sacrifice is to change our livesnot God's mind.
This is awesomely demonstrated in the prayer with which the bishop
gives the bread and wine to the newly-ordained priest: "Accept
the gifts from the people to be offered to God. Be conscious of
what you are doing, be as holy as the actions you perform, and
model your life after the mystery of the Lord's cross." The priest
is expected to be "as holy as" the action he performs (the sacrifice
he offers); he is to model his life after the mystery of the Lord's
cross. These commands, of course, apply not only to priests but
to all of us.
If the inner disposition of the one offering sacrificeor
arranging for itdoes not match the external devotion of
the ritual, then the so-called sacrifice actually mocks God. Against
just such sacrifices God thunders, "Trample my courts no more!
Bring no more worthless offerings" (Isaiah 1:13). A contrite heart
(ready for obedience and service) is the kind of gift God considers
worthwhile. Now, how is our sacrifice of a contrite heart
related to the sacrifice of Jesus?
Relationship of the Mass and the Cross
In grade school many of us heard the
Mass described as the "unbloody sacrifice of Calvary" in which Jesus,
through the priest, offers himself to the Father under the appearance
of bread and wine. The Mass was described as the same as the sacrifice
of Calvary because the priest and victim (Jesus) are the same in
each. All of this was and is true. Still this explanation left many
people with a question: How are the Mass and the sacrifice on the
cross related?
Perhaps the best way to describe this
connection is to say that in the Mass we re-link ourselves
to Calvary. St. Paul told his converts in Corinth, "Every time,
then, you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the death
of the Lord until he comes" (1 Corinthians 11:26). Christ's death
and resurrection is the saving event of all time. The Eucharist
is not a matter of "repeating" that action but reestablishing our
bond with it.
Liturgy teacher Father Lawrence Landini,
O.F.M., says, "The ritual sacrifice of the Mass is a sacrament
of Jesus' once-and-for-all sacrificeand that sacrifice alone
has power to save us. The action that really avails unto salvation
is not precisely our remembering, done again and again; it is not
our repeated eating of his body and blood; it is not our repeated
offering of ourselves to God; it is not our repeated sacrifice of
praise. Rather it is Jesus' sacrifice. In other words, all of these
ritual and sacrificial actions point to and contain the once-and-for-all
sacrifice of Christ which alone unites us more intimately with God
and with one another."
The "Sacrifice" vs. "Meal"
In the 16th century Martin Luther and
many other Protestant leaders denied that the Mass is a sacrifice;
they stressed the meal aspect exclusively. The Council of
Trent reacted by emphasizing what was under attack, namely, that
the Mass is a sacrifice. Following the concerns of the Council of
Trent, Catholic teaching in recent centuries sought to prove from
Scripture that the Mass is a sacrifice. Widely-used catechisms did
not focus on the prophets' criticism of Israelite sacrifice; they
did not stress the dangers of formalism (going through the ritual
motions without genuine inner conversion).
Although we need warnings about the dangers
of formalism, ritual is important. For one thing, it enables people
to know what is going on and how and when they
are to join in. It also encourages greater participation of the
People have rituals for all occasions:
inaugurating a president, beginning a day in court, graduating from
high school, introducing a friend to others. High school and professional
sports are full of ritual. Ritual is a way of saying something else;
ritual itself is not the message. "The difficulty with ritual,"
says Ernest Larsen in his book, Holiness, "is never, primarily,
in the ritual itself, but rather with the message it is entrusted
to express and deepen. Man is the only creature on earth who has
the need to ritualize and the only one who can lie through ritual."
Ritual is important for common worship,
but it has a relative importance. Obsession with itwas
the Mass valid if the priest forgot the Creed?smothers the
meaning of sacrifice and siphons off energy and devotion needed
for the change of heart which is to accompany sacrifice.
Sacrifice After Vatican II
Recent Church teaching upholds the Mass
as sacrifice. In fact, Vatican II's decree on the liturgy (1963)
said: "At the Last Supper, on the night he was betrayed, our Savior
instituted the eucharistic sacrifice of his Body and Blood. This
he did in order to perpetuate the sacrifice of the Cross throughout
the ages until he should come again, and so to entrust to his beloved
Spouse, the Church, a memorial of his death and resurrection: a
sacrament of love, a sign of unity, a bond of charity, a paschal
banquet in which Christ is consumed, the mind is filled with grace,
and a pledge of future glory is given to us" (#47).
Pope Paul's 1965 encyclical, The Mystery
of Faith, described the Mass as reapplying the power of Calvary
"for the forgiveness of those sins which we daily commit" (#27).
The 1967 Instruction on the Worship of the Eucharistic Mystery
said that the Mass is simultaneously "a sacrifice, a memorial, and
a banquet" (#1). "In the Mass, therefore, the sacrifice and the
sacred meal belong to the same mysteryso much so that they
are linked by the closest bond" (#2). The Mass is the action not
only of Christ but also of the Church; Christ and his Church are
both priest and victim (#3). The 1969 Instruction on the New
Order of the Mass said that the meaning of the Eucharistic Prayer
"is that the whole congregation joins Christ in acknowledging the
words of God and offering the sacrifice" (#54).
Four eucharistic prayers were authorized
in 1969. Three of the four prayers use the word "sacrifice" several
times. The second Eucharistic Prayer speaks of sacrifice without
using the word: "In memory of his death and resurrection, we offer
you, Father, this life-giving bread, this saving cup" (emphasis
added). Each prayer emphasizes the connection between the sacrifice
and changed lives. For example, the third Prayer asks that all those
nourished by Christ's Body and Blood "may be filled with his Holy
Spirit, and become one body, one spirit in Christ." The fourth Prayer
asks that the Father might "gather all who share this bread and
wine into the one body of Christ, a living sacrifice of praise."
Sacrifice vs. Meal?
The Mass is a sacrifice. Here the Church
offers a gift to God and prays that all these people may achieve
union with him. Both offering a sacrifice and becoming
a "living sacrifice of praise" are essential to the biblical meaning
of sacrifice.
The Mass is also a meal, food for the
journey, a building-up of those who celebrate it, and a challenge
to share the Good News about Jesus more widely.
Every Mass is both a sacrifice and a
meal, a means of fulfilling both of Jesus' two great commandments.
Each Eucharist is a foretaste of the eternal banquet of "the Lamb
that was slain" (Revelation 5:12).

From Our Heart to Yours
At Kashi, The Seven Whole Grain Company, we believe everyone has the power to make positive, healthy lifestyle changes. For over 25 years it's been our mission to provide great tasting, all natural foods made with whole grains to help you live well.
That's why we made our Heart to Heart foods with more heart healthy ingredients to:
Help Support Healthy Cholesterol
Since high cholesterol is a major risk factor for heart disease, diets low in saturated fat and cholesterol that include 3 grams of soluble fiber per day from whole grain provides 1 gram of soluble fiber. This type of fiber dissolves in water to form a gel-like material and as it passes through the digestive system, it binds with cholesterol, helping to remove it from your body. Good sources of soluble fiber include whole grains like oats, brown rice and barley, beans, peas, fruits and vegetables.
Help Promote Healthy Blood Pressure
High blood pressure is another major risk factor for heart disease. Sodium is important to the body, but a high sodium diet is associated with hypertension. Diets low in sodium may reduce the risk of high blood pressure, a disease associated with many risk factors. That's why we made sure Heart to Heart cereal is a low sodium breakfast choice.
More for You
Each serving of Heart to Heart cereal is high in antioxidant vitamins C and E. Plus, you'll get 100% Daily Value of heart healthy vitamins B6, B12 and folic acid.

Rugby: Time matters to Saint-Andre
New France boss Philippe Saint-Andre was confident he could end 100 years of French rugby fragility - but only if he was given more time with his players.
Saint-Andre called on his country's professional teams and rugby federation to do more to help him conquer the inconsistency that has dogged Les Bleus throughout their entire history.
The former Sale head coach only met his 30-man provisional RBS 6 Nations squad for the first time on Sunday, but must now release them back to their clubs for matches this weekend.
"It's tough," Saint-Andre said ahead of next weekend's tournament opener against Italy.
"We are the only country who have the league Friday and Saturday.
"I will announce the squad of 23 tomorrow [Thursday] but I will cross my fingers that the guys will be okay after the games this weekend.
"We know the other countries have much more time to prepare."
He added: "For the players, it is not easy. Last week, it was Heineken Cup.
"This week is French league and next week it's Six Nations.
"So they play three different competitions in three different weeks.
"We need to improve a few areas to give more times for the players to prepare for the Six Nations.
"The French league, the federation, know this and they've started to speak with each other to try to find a French way to try to be as competitive as possible."
Last year's World Cup witnessed arguably the most extreme inconstancy France have ever produced in a tournament, as the navigated their way through to a final defeat to New Zealand.
"We know that," Saint-Andre said.
"This is French rugby for the last four years - for the last 100 years.
"We can be one day up here and one day near to the floor.
"The biggest challenge - and we spoke with the players about this - is to try to be very consistent."
Despite losing the World Cup final by a single point, the squad was riven by infighting.
"We didn't have any arguments for the last three days!" joked Saint-Andre turning to captain Thierry Dusatoir.
Flanker Dusatoir vowed to repay the faith of the French rugby public, who ultimately got behind the team in the final.
"We were really surprised when we came back to France," he said.
"We didn't get that people were supporting us so much and we were really happy.
"Now we know that French people support us.
"We really want to show them how good we could be."

T.A. Dugger students take controls
By Ashley Rader
Several T.A. Dugger students found themselves "winging it" last week, but parents shouldn't worry – the youngsters had things well under control.
Students in the Extended School Program at T.A. Dugger Junior High School tested their flight skills with a trip to the Elizabethton High School aviation simulator last week.
Dugger ESP Director Melanie Stapp said the 12 students in the program used the high school's full-motion flight simulator and desktop computer simulators to practice what they had been learning about aviation during the after-school program.

I have a Grohe Integrated Thermostat valve (34 436) that leaks just as it does for many other people. The problem is the middle O ring on the stop valve plunger. I managed to get the O ring sizes from Grohe and find that the middle O ring is an odd size: 6.5 x 3 mm (the other two O rings on the plunger are 8x2 mm, a standard size). I have discovered that such a size is hard to find, but have also discovered that Honda motorcycles use a 6.5x3.1 mm O ring in the cam chain tensioner. I currently have a 7x3 mm O ring in the faucet right now, and it seals (7x2.5 mm does not, nor does 6x3 mm), but it's too big for the valve to operate smoothly. I hope this information helps someone else. It would appear that Grohe has gone out of its way to use odd sizes that force consumers to cough up $35 for an O ring kit (one of the O rings is 32.7x1.3 mm!?) when only two O rings are needed for repair.
Grohe says the two O rings on the stop valve body are 19x1.5 mm and 20x2.5 mm, both readily available.
Should your stop valves leak, remember to get rid of hard water deposits first. I soaked the valve bodies and plungers in a lime-removing liquid to make sure they were clean before replacing the O rings.

Description of the substance
Introduction to Boron
Boron is one of the simplest of atoms. The only simpler ones are hydrogen, helium, lithium and beryllium. Boron has chemical symbol B, atomic number 5, and occurs naturally as 80% B11 and 20% B10. The latter isotope has a high cross section for thermal neutron absorption, 3800 barns. Thermal neutron counters are often filled with BF3 gas. The gamma ray from the neutron capture reaction B10(n,-)B11* followed by decay of the B11* to an a plus Li7 produces ionization which is then detected. Boron is also used in reactor control rods. This is a nuclear property of boron, and has nothing at all to do with its chemistry. The atomic weight of boron is 10.81.
Boron is found in a variety of similar minerals all related to borax, sodium tetraborate, Na2B4O7·10H2O. The name comes from the Arabic buraq, "white." Borax is the same in French and German as in English, but the element is bor. In Spanish, the words are bóraxo and boro. It is a relatively rare element in the earth's crust, representing only 0.001%. In the United States, borax is found in large amounts in California, in Searles Lake brines and in the Mojave desert. It is also found in Turkey, South America and other places. The natural deposits are dried-up lake beds. Molten borax reacts with metal oxides to form borates that dissolve in the melt, so it is a useful as a welding and soldering flux, and in colored enamels for iron. In fact, this was the earliest use of borax, as a pottery glaze. This same property is used for borax bead tests in chemistry, where the characteristic colors produced in a transparent borax drop melted on a loop of platinum wire in a bunsen burner flame are observed. Blue, for example, is the color of cobalt; green, of chromium. The color can differ in oxidizing (blue) and reducing (yellow) flames.
The electron configuration of boron is 1s22s22p. It has only three electrons to work with, so the ion is unpolarizable, and does not hydrate. For this reason, boron is not eager to donate electrons in an electrovalent bond, and can also not accept them easily. Therefore, most of its bonds are covalent, and even forms half-bonds in which only one electron is shared covalently, not the usual two. This gives boron an apparent valence of +6 that we shall see in some interesting compounds. The first ionization potential is 8.30 V, which is not unusually high.
The other commonly-used boron compounds are orthoboric acid, or simply boric or boracic acid, H3BO3, and boron trioxide, B2O3, its anhydride. Note that the formula for boric acid can be written B(OH)3, as boron hydroxide. If boron were a normal metal, the hydroxyl ions would separate in water, creating the trivalent boron ion B+++. This, however, does not happen to the smallest degree, and boron does not form ionic bonds. Moreover, boric acid is not gelatinous like aluminium hydroxide, but crystallizes nicely. Boron trifluoride, BF3 is not an ionic compound like NaF, which has no ions in its crystals. Instead, the hydrogens are lost long before the oxygens. In aqueous solution, boric acid is a very weak acid, weaker even than carbonic. Its first ionization product is 6.4 x 10-10. Boric acid solution (solubility 6.35% at room temperature, 27.6% at 100°C) is used as an antiseptic, especially as an eyewash. Boric acid can be produced from borax by treatment with H2SO4, and boron trioxide by heating boric acid. These are the initial processes in the synthesis of all boron compounds.
Elemental boron was discovered by Davy, Gay-Lussac and Thénard in 1808. They produced metallic potassium by electrolysis, and then used it to reduce borates to impure boron. Davy called the element boracium, the Frenchmen bore. It can also be obtained in impure form by reduction of the oxide B2O3 by magnesium, or in pure form by the reduction of BCl3 by hydrogen on hot filaments. The first pure boron was produced by Weintraub in 1909. Ordinary boron is a brown-black amorphous powder. Pure boron can be made as extremely hard yellow monoclinic crystals that are a semiconductor resembling silicon. The band gap is 1.50 or 1.56 eV, which is higher than that of either silicon or germanium, and very similar to that of diamond. Crystalline boron is an insulator at low temperatures, but becomes a conductor at elevated temperatures, as would be expected as carriers are thermally excited into the conduction band. Fabrication difficulties have so far prevented the use of boron as a semiconductor. The density of crystalline boron is 2.34 g/cc, of amorphous boron, 2.37. It melts at 2300°C and boils at 2550°C (some sources say 2040°C and 4100°C), so it is a very refractory substance. Boron fibers have been used in composite materials because of their great strength.
Boron gives a blue-green flame, and the brown amorphous form is often used in pyrotechical devices for this purpose. The color can be distinguished from the emerald green of copper. Boron is also used in borosilicate glasses, which are 12%-15% B2O3, 80% SiO2, and 2% Al2O3. Sodium, potassium, magnesium and calcium oxides are kept to minimal amounts, since it is their exclusion that gives the glass its desirable properties. "Pyrex" is a common trade name for a borosilicate glass. This glass is chemically resistant, and has a small coefficient of thermal expansion. Boron carbide, B4C, harder than SiC, is formed by decomposing B2O3 with carbon in the electric furnace: 2B2O3 + 7C ? B4C + 6CO. It was first suggested for commercial use in 1934, and is an excellent abrasive. Boron nitride, BN, is another very hard compound, used in cutting tools. There are numerous other borides with complex structures. Boron is also used in porcelain enamels for iron, and for tiles and sanitary ware.
An interesting test for boron and borates uses volatile (CH3)3BO3, which burns with a green flame. Combine the solution to be tested with methanol, then add concentrated sulphuric acid to make the methyl borate. Another test uses turmeric paper, which turns reddish brown when moistened with boric acid or borates. If then a drop of ammonium hydroxide or sodium hydroxide is put on the paper, it will turn dark green, blue or black. To make turmeric paper, wash some ground turmeric in water. Then digest the washed powder with alcohol, and filter. Soak unsized white paper in the filtrate, then dry and cut into test strips. The active ingredient in turmeric paper may be curcumin, which seems to act the same way. It is available in an alcoholic 0.1% solution for this purpose.
Boron-Oxygen Chains
We have mentioned that boron would rather lose the H in B(OH)3 than the oxygen. Like silicon, which has a similar persuasion, boron can form chains like -B-O-B-O-B-, where each intermediate boron has a free valence to work with. This is seen in tetraboric acid, O=B-O-B(OH)-O-B(OH)-O-B=O, or H2B4O7, which can be derived from B(OH)3 by dehydration: 4H3(BO)3 ? H2B4O7 + 5H2O. Dehydration of boric acid also gives boron trioxide: 2B(OH)3 ? B2O3 + 3H2O. Boron trioxide can also be written O=B-O-B=O, where the boron-oxygen chain again appears.
Some compounds can be considered derivatives of the theoretical acid HBO2, called borates. This metaboric acid is boric acid less one water molecule. If it loses another water, it becomes B2O3, which we have already seen. Boron trioxide in water becomes boric acid. The use of borax as a flux depends on reactions like O=B-O-B(ONa)-O-B(ONa)-O-B=O (borax) + NiO ? 2NaBO2 + Ni(BO2)2.
Boron-oxygen chains also form linked planar structures that have the appearance of fence wire with hexagonal openings. Oxygen atoms project radially to make bonds with other atoms.
Icosahedral Boron
The icosahedron ("twenty-base") is one of the five Platonic solids, a regular convex polyhedron with 20 faces, 30 edges and 12 corners. In the absence of degeneracy, a symmetrical structure will have the lowest energy, and the regularity is possible because of the identity of the atoms. The tetrahedron, square, octahedron and dodecahedron also appear in molecular structures. It is remarkable that boron finds the icosahedron adapted for its purposes. Excellent drawings of the structures we discuss here are found in Pauling and Hayward. The icosahedral structures are exhibited by compounds known as boranes.
Just after world war II, the U. S. military was interested in developing an advanced aviation fuel for jets and ramjets that would replace the hydrocarbon-based JP-4 and similar fuels. Someone suggested that the then poorly-known boranes would give a better power-to-weight ratio, and Project ZIP was launched in 1952. Government money rained down on research projects dealing with boron, and for roughly a decade there was near hysteria in the scramble for research money, and many things were, incidentally, learned about boron. The boranes turned out to be not the powerhouses that were anticipated, were hard to manufacture and store, tended to start fires, and were also extremely toxic. Military enthusiasm cooled, and the research money went elsewhere. However, we found out the interesting structures of boranes, and a good deal of boron chemistry. Fifty years later, airplanes still burn JP-4.
A boron atom at an icosahedral vertex can make five equal bonds to its nearest neighbors, leaving one bond to stick out radially. Boron-boron bonds are half-bonds of length 0.180 nm. If we put one boron atom at each vertex, each with one proton, and assume that all bonds are half-bonds, then we have the neutral structure B12H12. However, the protons would like to have more electrons in their bonds, and overall 6 electrons are lacking for a full single bond. This would give far too large a charge to the ion, so the structure only attracts 2 extra electrons, which are spread over the 12 bonds to the protons. It happens that two extra electrons are ideal for resonance stablization of the ion. The proton bonds wind up at 0.120 nm. The substance potassium dodecaborohydride contains this ion in its crystals.
Boron will not form BH3. Instead, it forms larger borohydrides called boranes. In decaborane, B10H14, only 10 of the 12 vertices of the icosahedron are occupied. The extra 4 hydrogens are each bonded to two adjacent boron atoms, replacing the "missing" ones. The 10 radial hydrogens have bonds 0.118 nm long, while the bridging hydrogens have bonds 0.135 nm long. In tetraborane, B4H10, only four vertices are occupied, and there are 10 bridging hydrogens. Tetraborane has a foul smell. Diborane, B2H6 has no boron-boron bonds, but two bridging hydrogens out of plane in the planar molecule.
Davy might have made a borane when he treated boron with hydrochloric acid. The gas that was evolved burnt with a blue-green flame. Boranes react vigorously with oxygen, so they have been considered as candidates for rocket fuels. They are examples of electron-deficient compounds, since there are more bonding orbitals available than there are electrons to fill them. Carboranes are boranes where some of the borons are replaced by carbons. It is not easy to make boranes, and there was a considerable interval between Davy and the first recognized boranes.
One form of crystalline boron is tetragonal. The unit cell of this lattice consists of 4 icosahedrons of boron and two extra boron atoms, 50 in all. The radial bonds go to other icosahedrons or to the extra atoms, which show tetrahedral bonds. The bond length is 0.180 nm, as in the boranes.
The element is not found free in nature, but occurs as orthoboric acid usually in certain volcanic spring waters and as borates in boron and colemantie. Ulexite, another boron mineral, is interesting as it is nature's own version of "fiber optics." Important sources of boron are the ore rasorite (kernite) and tincal (borax ore).

D.J. Harper
Pre-Combine Grade: 58.8 (Considered a "draftable player." A prospect with the ability to make a team as a backup/role player. Projected to get drafted between 4th and 7th rounds.)
What they're saying:
"Speed back who hits the jets when in the open field. When he presses the line, shows quick feet to cut into space and then quickly accelerate. Has some thickness to his frame, not a slight runner like many fast backs. Runs with good lean inside, ends up falling forward and can get through arm tackles. Flashes balance to keep running after a spin move in the open field. Willing to lower shoulder into defensive back to finish runs instead of stepping out of bounds. Shows good hands in limited chances as a receiver, threat to leave behind linebackers on wheel routes and make moves to free himself of coverage in the flat or over the middle. Plays some Wildcat QB in the red zone. Capable as a cut blocker." -- NFL.com
"Tore left ACL twice, must check out medically. Lacks enough power to run inside, and will too frequently try and bounce to the outside. Keeps the ball in his inside hand at times instead of switching it away traffic. Not always as decisive as you'd like finding his hole behind the line, also loses his balance trying to make moves in the open field at times instead of taking what he can get. When attempting to anchor in against pass rushers, he either gets run through, or run past." -- NFL.com
Jay's Take: It will be difficult for Harper to increase his draft value like former Boise State runningback Doug Martin did at the NFL Combine last year. Harper is not as athletically gifted as Martin, however, he is consistent and likely will not struggle in any of the tests he goes through in Indianapolis this weekend. Obviously Harper's injury history will be a concern, but he is a versatile back that can offer help in pass protection and he catches the ball well out of the backfield.
