Sometimes, it's really embarrasing seeing onrpgers talk about level cap or whine about grind / stamina system when they don't play enough in the first place, it's like they want a short cut to max level when that's just boring.

I'm having issues, but I want to see if anybody else has them before I post mine.
Works great for me. Remember to put your roms in a folder called: "FBANext-ROMS" on the root of your usb device. As for roms i just used roms from the latest mame set. NeoGeo and CPS 1 + 2 works great. Just remember to also put the Neogeo.zip (Bios) in the folder if you use NeoGeo roms.
"Configurable joystick Buttons"
Anyone know where can you configure the Buttons? OR is that feature not implemented on this release?
So what are the installation notes ?
Install PKG ?
Put Roms In /FBANext-ROMS ?
Transfer Bios To Installdir ?
yeahh ... plz need help to ! i don't have any experience with the FBA Emu.
So i install the pkg i create a dir FBANext-ROMS on a usb then i googled neogeo roms found some roms with the ending *ngp
copy in the FBANext-ROMS folder on usb but i can't start it ... do i need some special roms for FBANext emu ?
neogeo bios i downloaded and also copied into the FBANext-ROMS folder... but always i got the msg... no roms.
Last edited by cqd501; 11-22-2010 at 02:07 PM
I doubt that it'd recognize .ngp files, those are roms from SNK's NeoGeo Pocket system, which was much like the Gameboy. The NeoGeo games this supports are the roms from their MVS and AES games (arcade and console)- they'll probably be in .zip format when you find them, because each game is made up of several files, just like everything that you'd typically play in Mame.
Hope this helps! I'm excited to go play me some Marvel vs. Capcom!

I can play in the mornings. I usually play at Herb Martinez, which is just off Camino Carlos Rey between St. Francis and Cerillos. I play at the courts off St. Francis too, which is Salvador Perez next to the train park.
Tuesday or Thursday is ideal, but I can also do Wednesday or Friday depending on the time.
How's Thursday sound? I can even play today if you're ok with afternoon/evening tennis.
Hi Elena,
Are you still looking for people to play with during the week? I would love to play if so. I live in the South Capitol area but I can play anywhere that is convenient.

I've got a Danze D113000BT Single Control Pressure Balance Mixing Valve with Diverter.
The diverter is a simple valve that opens up on the bottom to let the water flow out the bottom... path of least resistance.
Danze says that this diverter valve can be used to divert water to a tub or a hand shower.
In a tub installation it makes sense that this valve opens up and water comes out the spout.
How does this diverter function in a hand shower installation? Isn't the shower head line still open to the mixing valve? Wouldn't water come out both the shower head and handshower in this type of installation?

Seabirds and Marine
We are changing the way the world's fisheries operate, to reduce seabird mortality
We formed the Albatross Task Force, the world's first international team of instructors working with fishing fleets at sea.
With input from 40 BirdLife Partners, we produced the first global atlas of sites of importance for seabirds and other marine biodiversity, describing over 3000 sites in coastal waters and on the high seas.
Seabirds, particularly albatrosses and petrels, are becoming increasingly threatened and at a faster rate globally than any other group of birds. Many declines are closely linked to the expansion of commercial fisheries in seabird feeding areas, combined with the impacts of invasive alien species at nesting colonies. Many seabird species range widely across the world's oceans, and so seabird conservation issues need to be addressed globally.
BirdLife International's Global Seabird Conservation Programme began in 1997 to work on seabird conservation at a global level and engage relevant stakeholders regionally and internationally. The programme is developing and supporting initiatives to reduce the incidental mortality of seabirds by fisheries. A network of BirdLife Partners is influencing global and regional policies affecting seabirds.
More recently, BirdLife Partners have been engaged in mapping marine Important Bird Areas around coasts, in territorial waters and on the high seas, and the BirdLife Partnership is working with national governments and international bodies to create a network of marine Protected Areas.

This is what worried my husband. Moving the TV is a big deal. Ah hell, I still haven't sat on any of them yet, either.

First I'll say I haven't used each function yet, but I am very impressed overall so far. The person before me states the light level is poor, but I do not agree. The light level is what I need and I have no complaints. I think sometimes kitchens are set up in that there isn't sufficient lighting to begin with. Why would you expect a microwave light to compensate for that? When the microwave is operating it is quiet. I am impressed with the fan, quiet and appears to be strong. I was concerned about the heat coming off my gas range but so far the auto sensor fan has not come on, so now I just wait and see if it does when I have more than two of my large burners on. The interior is sleek and nice to see instead of the standard white. I spent considerable time researching what is out there to replace my GE that died after almost 11 years, and found this one had all the features and style I was looking for.

I use microwave cooking for large batches of vegetables, often in larger sized crock pots with larger volumes of water in order to cover the vegetables and prevent burning on the surface. This microwave takes excessively long to heat the food and water to simmer temperatures (bubbling) at full power and then to complete the cooking maintaining simmer at lower powers. For example for a 6 pound batch of green beans which normally took about 60 minutes normal total cooking time in other microwaves, it took over 110 minutes total cooking time. On average, cooking my larger batches of vegetables was similarly prolonged, about 1.75 to 2 times longer than normal. I suggest that Whirlpool engineers look at their heat dispersal technology, using their special lining of the unit, which I think may be actually lowering the total power of heating of the food. If the microwave is only used to heat or reheat food, or boil a cup of water, the extra time won't be noticed much, but if one wants to fix a batch of rice, cooking for the normal time, it will come out soggy, and will take inordinately long to finish.

Great Microwave
By Sicnarf37
from Colorado
This microwave matches our kitchen and we enjoy the many great features such as soften (Butter, Cream Cheese, Ice Cream), Vegetables, reheat, etc. It seems to cook and heat evenly and we've had no problems. I do wish it had more of a nightlight feature like a previous one we owned .

This is our second one. We had the first one for over 8 yrs. It was still working great. Never had any trouble with it. We remodeled our kitchen so the old one didn't match. The New one' so far is the same great quality.
Easy to use.

I like my new microwave except for a couple of things. My hearing is not good, I wear hearing aids. I would like the beeping to be louder. Is there any way this can be done? Also, the light in the microwave is so dull. Can a brighter bulb be put in? Would love to hear from the company.

Question not answered?
Please contact Career Services for assistance by phone or email:
- 541-737-4085
- firstname.lastname@example.com
The first stop on your journey to a career should be an examination or self-assessment of your interests.
A great resource to help you with your self-evaluation is SIGI3.
SIGI3 — pronounced "siggy three" for System of Interactive Guidance and Information — is a special tool that can help you to plan your career. Among the features offered on SIGI3 you will find tools to help you research occupations, choose, change, or clarify a major, and evaluate your interests, skills, values and personality. You can access the system through Beaver JobNet (student log-in, faculty/staff log-in). Once in Beaver JobNet, click "Log-in to SIGI3" on the right side under Career Counseling & Exploration.
It can't. However, SIGI3 can help you systematically examine your work-related values, interests, personality types, and skills. Once you enter your own preferences, the program searches its occupational database to find those careers that most closely match your preferences. It can save you literally days of leafing through catalogs and career books, and it may well find career options you never knew existed.
A computer is only a machine. It knows what you tell it; nothing more. That's why it's so important for you to think hard and respond honestly to the questions in SIGI3. Even if you are asked a question you've never really considered or that you find hard to answer, make the best choice you can. In this way, the career possibilities SIGI3 presents will be as germane as possible.
Think of SIGI3 as a bag of tools. Each is useful for something - finding information you want, narrowing the list of majors and occupations appropriate to your desires, or help with ancillary things such as coping with the stresses of college life and resume writing. Each question you have about careers and work can be answered with some collection of these tools.
To start using SIGI3, go to Beaver JobNet and click "Log-in to SIGI3" which is located on your Beaver JobNet homepage on the right side under Career Counseling & Exploration. You will be prompted to create a user name if this is your first time to log into the system, as well as complete a short profile. Once you get to the Main Menu of SIGI3, with the words "What will you do with Sigi today?" at the top, you have the ability to choose between several options.
Try starting with "Use an assessment tool". The more assessments you take, the more information the software will gather about you and the occupations that might fit your values, skills, interests, and personality.
Once you've taken the assessments, you will see a list of suggested occupations. You also have the ability to search based on assessments you've already taken. This list will change if you retake your assessments and adjust your answers, but your suggested occupations will always be available to return to in order to research specific careers.
SIGI3 is a good resource for career development, but it can be helpful to discuss your results with a career counselor, your academic advisor, or a professor to get more information about your options. SIGI3 will not tell you what you should do, but what you could look into further. Career planning requires active engagement and exploration, and SIGI3 provides a starting place for that activity.
Career Services offers other career assessments besides SIGI3 that many students find helpful in the process of learning more about themselves. Find out more about those assessments and how to get started.

Blake Bortles in Houston for meeting with Texans
Central Florida quarterback Blake Bortles has long been connected as a possibly fit for the Houston Texans with the No.1 overall pick in the NFL Draft.
The Texans need a quarterback. Bortles is a quarterback. It kind of makes sense, right?
After meeting with the Oakland Raiders on Monday, Bortles arrived in Houston Tuesday night for a meeting with the Texans on Wednesday.
Bortles met with Texans' brass at the combine and general manager Rick Smith and head coach Bill O'Brien were both on hand for Bortles' pro day workout as well.
"They've been great," Bortles said from the William P. Hobby Airport in Houston, via James Palmer of CSNHouston.com "He's a great guy and a great coach. I'm just excited to get here, meet everybody and sit down and talk with everybody again. So I'm really looking forward to it."
Bortles, Texas A&M's Johnny Manziel and Louisville's Teddy Bridgewater are the three likely selections the Texans have to choose between if they want to take a quarterback with their top selection in the draft. Houston also has scheduled a pre-draft visit with Manziel set for next week.
The Texans know they are taking a quarterback at some point in the draft. If it will be at No. 1, Bortles and Manziel seem to have become the two options Houston is focusing on the most.
Report: Pair of South Carolina prospects wanted for police questioning
A pair of prospects from the University of South Carolina is apparently wanted for questioning by police in relation to an incident at a New York City nightclub last week.
According to TMZ, defensive tackle Kelcy Quarles and cornerback Victor Hampton are "wanted for questioning at the very least" stemming from an alleged attack at Greenhouse nightclub.
A club promoter allegedly suffered "extensive facial injuries" after being allegedly attacked by three men. No arrests have been made and the investigation is ongoing.
With less than four weeks to go until the NFL Draft, college prospects are still directly under the spotlight of teams as they continue to adjust and tweak their draft boards. While the investigation is still in its preliminary stages, it likely won't benefit Quarles and Hampton to have their names tied to a police investigation.
Both players are expected to be drafted based on projections. However, if they are found to be involved in this incident it could affect just when teams decided to take a chance on the,.
Chris Johnson says Jets visit went well but no decision yet
Free agent running back Chris Johnson visited with the New York Jets on Tuesday. It was his first visit since being released by the Tennessee Titans earlier this month.
After visiting with the Jets, Johnson decided to take in Tuesday night's game between the New York Knicks and Brooklyn Nets. While at the game, he spoke with multiple reporters regarding his visit.
Per Josina Anderson of ESPN, Johnson said "I had a great visit with the Jets. I'm just taking it one day at a time."
Johnson reiterated those thoughts to Peter Botte of the New York Daily News but added he's "not ready to make my decision."
Johnson had a down year in 2013 for Tennessee but still posted his sixth straight 1,000-yard season. However, the 3.9 yards per carry were the lowest mark of his career.
The Jets ranked sixth in the league in rushing last season with Bilal Powell and Chris Ivory as the primary options out of the backfield. Johnson would likely work in as part of a rotation alongside Powell and Ivory should he elect to sign with the Jets. But, Johnson is also a home run threat whose speed could be a real addition to the lineup.
For now, Johnson isn't ready to make a decision as he's possibly holding out for a better offer from the Jets or another team. However, if he doesn't make a decision soon, teams may elect to wait until after the draft to re-evaluate their needs and Johnson may have to wait to find a new home.
Lions intend to split the running back role between Bush and Bell
The Lions have a pair of potent tailbacks. And they plan to use both of them. Perhaps equally.
According to Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press, offensive coordinator Joe Lombardi said Tuesday that Reggie Bush and Joique Bell will share the load.
"[T]his game is a violent game anymore and it's hard for one running back to get all the carries," Lombardi said. "So much like they did last year, I see these guys kind of having a split role and both being very productive."
Last year, Bush and Bell became the first teammates in league history to rack up both 500 yards rushing and 500 yards receiving in the same season.
Based on salaries, Bush likely is in line to be the starter. But Bell will get plenty of opportunities, and the shared role will help both guys stay healthy deeper into the season — and to play deeper into the decade.
Derek Carr isn't lacking in confidence
When it comes to the 2014 crop of rookie quarterbacks, most consider three of them to be at the top of the heap: Teddy Bridgewater, Blake Bortles, and Johnny Manziel.
There's a fourth guy who believes he's better than all of them.
Appearing on NFL Network on Tuesday, Fresno State's Derek Carr was asked whether he's the best quarterback in the draft.
"Absolutely," Carr said. "And I say that with respect to all of the other guys because they are great competitors and all of those good things. Of course it's not easy for me to answer a question like that but I absolutely think so. There is no doubt in my mind and we can turn the film on, sit down and watch it, and we'll talk about it and I'll convince you."
Plenty of franchises are interested in having that conversation with a potential franchise quarterback. In a separate appearance on the league-owned broadcast channel, Carr rattled off a list of teams with which he has met.
"Jacksonville, Cleveland, Oakland, Tampa, Minnesota – just the first that come off the top of my head," Carr said. "Tennessee. I've been with them, working out with them, visiting with them, talking to them, the whole process. Those have been the initial ones so far."
Carr's brother, David, was the first pick in the 2002 draft. After five years as the starter in Houston, Carr has served as a backup with the Panthers, Giants, 49ers, and Giants again.
Trump has realistic shot of being approved
Despite the bluster, the bravado, and the convenient revisions to the history of his antagonism of the NFL, billionaire Donald Trump would have a good chance of being approved as owner of the Bills, if the family of Ralph Wilson decides to sell the team to him.
"I don't see why not," a source with direct knowledge of the dynamics of team ownership told PFT on Tuesday. "He's the only one saying it will stay in Buffalo."
But what of Trump's thirst for attention, his potential inability to put the greater good above his own interests, his tendency to be belligerent and combative with real or imagined enemies?
"I don't think there are nine people to stop him," the source said, in reference to the fact that nine "no" votes from other owners can block the sale.
Of course, a vote of the owners won't matter unless the Wilson family chooses to sell the team to Trump. It's one thing for Trump to talk publicly about buying the franchise. It's quite another to put the cash and financing together to make the purchase.
Anthony Barr intrigued by playing in Dallas
The Cowboys need defensive linemen. And multiple defensive linemen in the draft pool would like to play for the Cowboys. The question is whether they'll be there when the Cowboys are on the clock.
And whether the Cowboys will move up the board to get them.
A day after Pitt's Aaron Donald visited Big D, UCLA linebacker Anthony Barr arrived. And he talked about his interest in the Cowboys.
"There's pros and cons to every team and everywhere you go, but if I were a Cowboy, that would be really a blessing, truly a dream come true – a team I watched growing up," Barr said, via the team's official website. "It would just be surreal. I would be really appreciative to be here."
During his visit, Barr spent time with defensive coordinator Rod Marinelli.
"He showed me a lot of tape of [Julius] Peppers and Simeon Rice and [Warren] Sapp, so I think he wants me playing that defensive right end position to go after the quarterback, and that's something I'm all for," Barr said.
Barr also was a little star struck by the folks from the team with the blue star.
"I met Jerry Jones last night, and I couldn't believe it," Barr said. "I couldn't even talk at first, like, 'This is Jerry Jones.' It was a pretty cool experience, so these guys get my respect right off the bat."
He'll get their respect if he becomes a Cowboy, and if he helps lead the team back to the days of glory.
Report: 49ers "very unlikely" to pick up option on Aldon Smith
The 49ers have until May 3 to decide whether to extend the contract of linebacker Aldon Smith from four years to five. In the wake of his latest off-field incident, we reported that the 49ers haven't made a decision on whether to pick up the option.
Tim Kawakami of the San Jose Mercury News reports that the team is "very unlikely" to extend the deal.
Kawakami also believes that Smith "probably" won't play for the 49ers in 2014. The mechanism for Smith's unavailability is unclear. He could be suspended by the league under multiple policies and/or he could be placed on the non-football injury/illness list by the team if he has had a relapse of his alcohol issues.
The decision not to exercise the option reinforces the notion that the 49ers may indeed be done with Smith, at least for now. Exercising the option would guarantee his 2015 salary of $9.75 million for injury only. As of next March, it would be fully guaranteed.
For now, Smith's 2014 salary also is guaranteed. A suspension would wipe out the guarantee, however. Likewise, if the 49ers were to place Smith on the NFI list, they wouldn't have to pay him.
The risk of owing him $9.75 million in 2015 remains small. Which would make a decision not to pick up the option confusing. If the 49ers are done with Smith, why not trade him? He'd be more attractive in trade if his new team would control his rights for two years.
Regardless of how the situation plays out, the 49ers clearly are exploring their options. And those options include Smith never suiting up for the 49ers again.
Report: Rolando McClain's workout with Ravens "not a roaring success"
In a recent interview with the Carroll County Times, linebacker Rolando McClain indicated he wanted to restart his NFL career with the Ravens, who hold his rights after his retirement last spring.
Well, McClain reportedly had a workout with the Ravens, and the first accounts of that meeting are not flattering for the 2010 first-round pick.
According to Aditi Kinkhabwala of NFL Network, McClain's workout, from what she was told, "was NOT [her emphasis] a roaring success," with the linebacker not completing the conditioning part of the exercise.
According to Matt Zenitz of the Carroll County Times, the workout was conducted Tuesday, and it "did not go well."
Speaking at the NFL meetings in March, Ravens coach John Harbaugh made it clear the club would welcome back McClain, but only if he were diligent about his craft.
"If he's working his rear end off, then I'm kind of excited about him," Harbaugh said, via ESPN.com. "If he's not, then I've got no interest in him being on our team."
The 24-year-old McClain last appeared in an NFL game in 2012 with Oakland.
Falcons waive Saeed Lee, Adam Nissley
The Falcons waived defensive back Saeed Lee and tight end Adam Nissley on Tuesday, the club said.
Lee and Nissley spent the 2013 season on injured reserve.
The 23-year-old Lee signed with the Falcons last May after going undrafted out of Alabama State. He reportedly suffered a leg injury in training camp.
Nissley, 25, also spent the 2012 season on injured reserve. According to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Nissley suffered two ACL tears in his time with the Falcons. A UCF product, Nissley signed with Atlanta in April 2012.
Source: Schedule release planned for April 22
When it comes to the 2014 schedule, the NFL has said that the target for the release is mid-April, but that the schedule won't be released this week.
Per a source with knowledge of the situation, the NFL currently plans to release the schedule on Tuesday, April 22.
The unveiling of the schedule could be shifted to Wednesday, April 23 or Thursday, April 24. For now, though, the plan is to pull the sheet off the 256-game slate on Tuesday.
Look for the schedule to be announced in prime-time, with a multi-hour event on NFL Network and something similar to that on ESPN, complete with (if last year's trend holds) an effort to make preliminary picks for games to be played in December.
NCAA begins circling the wagons, starting with food
The NCAA has done plenty of huffing and puffing in the wake of the effort of Northwestern's football team to unionize. The NCAA will now try to blow their house down.
With food.
On Tuesday, the NCAA's Legislative Council determined that student-athletes "can receive unlimited meals and snacks in conjunction with their athletics participation."
So now college football coaches can punctuate meetings by saying, "Let's go eat a goddamn snack."
The move won't become official until April 24, if/when the NCAA Board of Directors approves the move. It would be a shock if they nix it, since preventing something that many assumed already was available to student-athletes could be the moment that the push to secure significantly better treatment for them fully crystallizes.
Then again, that may have already happened.
NFL could discipline Aldon Smith without resolution of pending charges
The NFL's Personal Conduct Policy gives a player the benefit of the doubt when he finds himself in one wrong-place/wrong-time situation. The policy isn't as forgiving when it happens two or more times.
With 49ers linebacker Aldon Smith now involved in a second incident that falls under the Personal Conduct Policy, he could be disciplined before either or both situations are resolved in court.
"With respect to repeat offenders, the Commissioner may impose discipline on an enhanced and/or expedited basis," the league's Personal Conduct Policy states. "In such cases, the timing and nature of the discipline will be determined by the Commissioner based on several factors including, but not limited to: the severity of the initial charge and the later charge, the facts underlying the later charge; the length of time between the initial offense and later charge; and the player or employee's compliance with counseling and other programs."
Last year, Smith was charged with multiple felony counts arising from the alleged possession of illegal weapons. He now faces an eventual felony charge arising from the allegation that he made a false claim of having a bomb while in an airport security line.
With a pair of pending felony incidents, that could be enough to prompt the NFL to move against Smith sooner rather than later.
Multiple players have been suspended by the NFL while charges were still pending. Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger was suspended six games (reduced to four) without ever being even arrested or charged.
Smith's multiple alcohol-related arrests fall under the substance-abuse policy. The NFL could be influenced by those incidents when deciding whether to discipline Smith before either of the two non-alcohol charges has been resolved.
Jaworski ranks Mettenberger over Manziel, Bridgewater
Ron Jaworski, the former NFL quarterback turned ESPN commentator, is well regarded for his ability to break down film and analyze it in a way that fans can understand. But in breaking down the quarterbacks in this year's NFL draft, Jaworski has been all over the map.
The latest example: Jaworski said today on NFL Live that he views former LSU quarterback Zach Mettenberger as a better prospect than either of the two highest-profile quarterbacks in this year's draft, Johnny Manziel of Texas A&M or Teddy Bridgewater of Louisville.
"This is the guy that can change the draft, Zach Mettenberger," Jaworski said. "He has the big, strong arm, the prototypical NFL quarterback, at 6-foot-5, 228 pounds, coached by Cam Cameron down there at LSU, pro-style offense."
Jaworski ranks former Central Florida quarterback Blake Bortles as the best of this year's class, Mettenberger second, Manziel third, Bridgewater fourth and Derek Carr of Fresno State fifth. Jaworski seems to put a lot of stock in pro days, moving Manziel up on the risk after ripping Manziel before his impressive showing at Texas A&M's Pro Day, and moving Bridgewater way down after his disappointing showing at Louisville's Pro Day.
"After my tape evaluation, I had Teddy Bridgewater No. 1. But I went to his Pro Day. He really struggled throwing the football — accuracy, velocity and it came out with a wobble," Jaworski said.
It's highly unlikely that the quarterbacks in this year's draft class will be selected in Jaworski's preferred order. But all it takes is one team to love Mettenberger as much as Jaworski does, and Mettenberger will be a first-round pick.
Vikings claim Terrell Manning off waivers
It won't make the kind of splash that signing Brett Favre did, but the Vikings have added another former member of the Packers to their roster after he spent a season playing in the AFC.
The Vikings have been awarded linebacker Terrell Manning off of waivers one day after he was let go by the Chargers. Manning was a fifth-round pick of the Packers in 2012 and played five games for the team before being waived last summer.
Manning was limited to just one game for the Chargers last season because of injuries, so he's got very little NFL experience under his belt after two years in the league. Manning has spent most of his time as an inside linebacker and he'll be competing for snaps with Michael Mauti, Jasper Brinkley and Audie Cole if the Vikings put him into the mix at middle linebacker.
The Vikings also signed tight end Allen Reisner on Tuesday as they continue shaping their roster ahead of the 2014 season.

Even skeptics should admit that Jesus undoubtedly appeared before Pilate; only the governor could order him crucified, and this required a prior hearing. Likewise, his own countrymen would normally perform the function of delator h s, or accusers, to charge him with sedition (Harvey 1982:16; see Sherwin-White 1978:47). Whatever the leaders' possible religious or personal motivations, the charge they bring against Jesus before Pilate here is political: by claiming to be a king, Jesus implied a worldly kingdom that would challenge Rome (for example, F. Bruce 1972b:199). This is easily the charge of lese majesty (Blinzler 1959:213; see also Bammel 1984:357), for which the normal punishment in the provinces was crucifixion (Blinzler 1959:238). What we know of ancient proceedings fits the Gospels' record of what happened.
This part of Matthew's account has less to do with Jesus than with Pilate, however: it is not Jesus but the character of Pilate that is on trial. Though Pilate knows the unjust motivation of the charges (v. 18) and receives a divine warning (v. 19), political expediency takes precedence over justice. We are guilty of the same crime whenever we side with views because they are popular in our society or political party even though we know that someone is suffering unjustly (whether the poor, the unborn, racial minorities, abused wives or children, crime victims, prisoners of war, refugees or others).
But the narrative does not implicate Pilate alone: the insistent people, blindly following their blind leaders (v. 20; compare 15:14; 23:16), embrace the moral responsibility Pilate seeks to evade. In the narrative world of Matthew, their acceptance of guilt for Jesus' blood on themselves and the generation of their children (27:24-25) directly invites the catastrophic events of 66-70 (23:29-39).
Finally, Matthew underlines in obvious ways that the crowds shared the guilt for Jesus' execution--though he also refuses to let Pilate absolve himself as easily as Pilate desires. Pilate, having handed Jesus over to the crowds' wishes, is no less guilty than weak-willed Zedekiah, who hands over Jeremiah in Jeremiah 38:5. By accepting the bloodguilt on themselves and their children, however (compare 2 Sam 3:28-29; 21:6, 14), Matthew's crowds directly fulfill Jesus' warning in Matthew 23:29-36, thereby inviting the destruction of their temple at the end of the generation, in their children's days.
Pilate decrees the sentence, as his position required him to do (27:26): Ibis in crucem ("you will mount the cross"; Blinzler 1959:238). The preliminary scourging here was quite serious; it accompanied the death sentence and sometimes caused death by itself (see F. Bruce 1977a:445; R. Brown 1970:2:874 and 1994:851). Probably stripped and tied to a pillar or post, Jesus was beaten with flagella--leather whips made of thongs knitted together with pieces of iron or bone, or a spike; such a scourging left skin hanging from the back in bloody strips (Blinzler 1959:222). That Pilate handed him over or "delivered" him up to the soldiers (perhaps foreign auxiliaries) links him to Judas and the chief priests, who had also "handed Jesus over" (26:48, Greek; 27:2-3; see Patte 1987:376). Far from escaping responsibility, Pilate forms the next link in the chain of guilt in which members of all involved parties participated.

Benefits Of Using ELSD for the Analysis Of Traditional Chinese Medicines
Traditional Chinese medicines have played an important role in clinical therapy and have been attracting more and more attention for their complementary therapeutic effects to western medicines with low toxicity and few to no complications. With the use of traditional herbal medicines gaining popularity worldwide, the questions of purity and safety of these supplements or natural products have become a concern for public health authorities. The FDA, WHO, and the Chinese Pharmacopoeia have begun generating reliable and accurate analytical techniques to standardize quality control in manufacturing of these supplements to insure the correct identity, authenticity, and lot to lot consistency.

Still feel like believing that soap fans should 'move on' or 'get over it'? Or does ABC/Disney have something that passes the intellectual fortitude to stand face to face, eye to eye, nose to brown nose, and realize that the soap fans are going nowhere and we are EVERYWHERE!!!!ReplyDelete
I turn off the TV during the day except for Y&R,B&B,Days,GH.I want soaps.ABC we know the game you are playing with ratings on The Chew,The Chew is running over on GH time period for the ratings.ReplyDelete
i have been watching soap scent it was in black white ,i love it but wish that all my children and one life to live was on but ,i love it thank uReplyDelete
GH still feels like the show is devoted to Jason and Sam while many GH (real) fan favs can't get a storyline they are getting extraorinary air time I realize Steve is leaving the role of Jason Morgan after 20 years but still. Its good to know that they didn't dominate the show this particular week although nearly every character dialogs about them when they aren't onReplyDelete
and ratings went up....just goes to show you.
It still takes a village (the whole show to pimp and prop them).
Happy for GH.ReplyDelete

Teams relieved after air space ban lifted
The travel plans of a number of teams competing in next weeks Twenty20 World Cup in the West Indies have been made easier after an airspace ban across Europe was lifted.
The ban had been in place for six days after the Eyjafjallajoekull volcano in Iceland erupted resulting in a volcanic ash cloud which covered most of northern Europe.
As a result of the travel ban the ICC had put in place a contingency plan to airlift teams direct from Dubai to the Caribbean if the travel disruption in Europe did not ease.
"Im delighted to say that the teams will now fly to the West Indies as originally scheduled. I want to thank both Emirates and the ICC executive for working so hard to ensure that we had a back-up plan to transport teams to the Caribbean," said ICC Chief Executive Haroon Lorgat.
"Emirates continues to assist teams with their travel plans and we are extremely grateful for that support," he added.
The Afghanistan team, which was scheduled to travel to Trinidad via London last week, will now fly via London to the Caribbean in the next few days.
England meanwhile have confirmed they will fly out to the Caribbean on Sunday morning as planned from Gatwick airport. If the travel ban hadnt have been lifted they were considering travelling by train to Spain before flying out to Dubai to catch the flight arranged by the ICC.

First online classes to begin March 27
PHOENIX, Feb. 20, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Grand Canyon University has added to its doctoral degree program the Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP), seeking to anticipate organizational changes and better meet patient needs in an emerging national health care system. The 36-credit program will prepare advance-practice nurses and nurse managers to translate research into innovative health-care solutions, while integrating Christian perspectives.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20121127/AQ19393LOGO)
"We want to be responsive to the health-care needs of patients, families and communities," said Dr. Anne McNamara, Dean of the College of Nursing and Health Care Professions, "but we also want to create a program that truly advances the profession."
The new DNP program, which was requested by nurses in the field, incorporates the teaching of a Christian worldview -- beliefs, values and guiding principles – and encourages students to think about how those worldviews impact their decisions in their practices. It will enable them to become transformational leaders in health care, and to navigate the Affordable Care Act as its practicalities unfold, McNamara said.
The program is fully online, making it ideal for working nurses. Dr. Melanie Logue, program chair for the DNP, said students will be able to connect with mentors and other students based on their geographic locations and interests through a "practice immersion workspace," in collaboration with GCU's College of Doctoral Studies.
"This provides online students with the opportunity to feel truly connected to the university and each other, while learning in a strategically designed online environment," Logue said.
The DNP will begin with 120 students, expanding in 2015 with 300 more new students. For details on the program, visit gcu.edu/dnp.
Grand Canyon University was founded in 1949 and is Arizona's premier private Christian university. GCU is regionally accredited and emphasizes individual attention for both traditional undergraduate students and the working professional. GCU offers traditional programs on its growing campus, as well as online bachelor's, master's and doctoral degree programs. The University's curriculum fuses academic and clinical rigor with Christian values to prepare its students to be skilled, caring professionals. For more information about GCU, visit gcu.edu.

I´ve heard that sometime in 1956 I think, Elvis was on a show and after the show some girls were tearing his clothes off. What happened that day? And did they tear all his clothes off? Did anyone hear this story? And are there any photos of what happened?

Thanks! I sure hope someone else can tell me more.
The correct date was May 13th 1955 in Jacksonville, Florida, that was the last night of the tour with the Hayride or the Hank Snow Jamboree Tour. They played before 14,000 people in a stadium that later became the Gator Bowl. After his performance Elvis announced to the audience jokingly with a deep voice: "Girls, I'll see you backstage". The girls in the crowd went crazy in full riot, they jumped up immediately and rushed him to the locker room, and when they finally found him they started to rip and tear his jacket and pink frilly shirt along with his shoes. The guards and the others found him literally on top of the showers where he had climbed, he was scared stiff and looked like 'what'd I do?'. He held his pants in his hands and three or four policemen got to his aid. You can imagine the reaction of the Colonel. He had big dollar marks in his eyes and this was that particular event when he would be completely sold to the idea of Elvis' growth potential of being the biggest act ever break into national stardom, after breaking the act into Florida. This tour was a huge leap in this early stage of his career.
Poke a little sock salad...
I know this might be a long shot but...remember in This is Elvis when Elvis is in the limo, filmed for On Tour. That was florida, in fact i think it was jacksonville, where he performed. And Elvis mentions the Gator Bowl and something about being put through the window into a paddywaggon? i think its paddywaggon anyway, do you think hes talking about this night in 55?

Partial (-3 to light)
|Blast resistance
500 (Flowing)
Yes (64)
|Flow speed
4 m/s
|Player movement speed
|First appearance
|Data values
Water is a fluid that can only be placed by the player when using a bucket (unless hacked in the player's inventory). On newly generated maps, water is common at ocean level also known as sea level (elevation 62) in the form of lakes. It also appears in pools, springs underground and lakes above ground. It can also be found in Village Wells, Desert Wells and sometimes as Springs / Waterfalls from a cliffside.
Water cannot be found in The Nether and water from a bucket will evaporate as soon as it touches anything in there (cauldrons exempted). Water "blocks" obtained through inventory editing can still be placed in The Nether.
[edit] Behavior
Water reduces your movement speed while traveling through it. It is possible to overcome this and travel quickly across the surface of large bodies of water by using a boat. Keep in mind boats aren't used in Pocket Edition!
[edit] Light
Water reduces light by 3 for every block, in addition to normal dispersion. This means that the deeper you are in water, the darker it will be.
There are two ways of increasing your ability to see under water. The first is by equipping a helmet with the Respiration enchantment.
The second is by drinking a Potion of Night Vision. This option is likely an unintended use of the potion, and may be patched in a future release.
[edit] Spreading
Water spreads across surfaces in a slightly more realistic way but cannot spread on top of another Water block. This allows the creation of waterfalls in these modes. The player can pick up Water blocks from sources such as an ocean or a lake by use of a Bucket. When placed again, the Water creates a spring which generates flowing or falling water. When a spring is destroyed, all flowing water created from it will slowly dry up. If there is a hole six blocks or fewer from the point of origin, the water will tend to flow in that direction. Source blocks and falling water that has landed on a solid block will always flow in at least one direction unless restricted. Water will travel a distance of 8 tiles with the counter resetting to 0 every time it lands on a lower level. If a block next to a water source block is destroyed, the water will immediately flow in that direction unless there was a block beneath the destroyed block.
[edit] Management
|First appearance
|Data value
dec: 326 hex: 146 bin: 101000110
Placing a block in the same space as water will replace the water. Entire lakes can be filled this way. Some Decorations, Piston's head, Ladders and Sugar Cane will also displace water. In survival mode, blocks take a longer time to break while the player is underwater.
Using a redstone wire, a one-block water flow can be redirected by supplying power to the source block, which will cause it to reset the flow towards the now-nearest terrain depression. The flow can then be put back so that it is not redirected until a block change occurs again, as seen in this video . This re-calculation is made because redstone wire when toggled changes the block from redstone(on), to redstone(off). whenever a block updates on any side of water, the water re-calculates where to flow, but does not cut off its current direction of flow. By using the fact that flowing water destroys torches, it is even possible to create multi-usable water toggles, as seen in this video .
Water can flow up to seven blocks away. (Eight blocks if you count the source block.)
[edit] Water Bucket
Water can be collected by right clicking on a water block with a bucket, giving a water bucket. However only water spring/source blocks can be collected, not shallow flowing water.
[edit] Springs
Springs can consist of either Water or Lava. Springs are randomly generated in caverns underground and sometimes above ground. Springs can also be placed by the player by picking up Water from the ocean by use of a bucket and then placing the Water again. A spring will generate Water which cannot flood a room because Water cannot spread into a space that is not bordered horizontally by at least two water source blocks. If a spring is removed, all Water that was created from it will also be removed (unless it spread a source block into a horizontally adjacent block), which makes it hard for things to be ruined by springs (with the exception of fragile, non-solid blocks like torches).
[edit] Infinite water source
An infinite water source is an endless supply of water, created naturally or by the player, where infinite water source blocks form on top of a water source block or another block. Whenever the player uses a bucket to scoop water out of this source, it will just fill back up again. All naturally occurring bodies of water are typically infinite water sources, including oceans, rivers, lakes and wells. Underground Springs are not an infinite water source.
The easiest and smallest infinite water sources are made by making a 2x2 square of water, or a 3x1 rectangle of water, only retaking the center square, both requiring only two buckets of water to create each (placing in corners of the square or on sides of the trench). Another design is to make a 3x3 square that is one block deep, filling in three of the corners. A less efficient design is to dig a '+' shape and place 4 water blocks in the 4 'arms', making the middle an infinite water source.
Infinite water sources are possible in Minecraft because any block of flowing water which is horizontally adjacent to two or more water source blocks will become a water source block, as long as the block underneath is either a solid block or a water source block.
[edit] Usage
[edit] Fire extinguisher
Water will destroy any fire block it flows into, and will also extinguish burning players or mobs. It will also destroy lava in many situations (not all). Also, dumping water while in the lava can get the player trapped under the resulting obsidian or cobblestone.
[edit] Cobblestone generator
If the flowing water and flowing lava blocks collide on the same level or flowing water falls onto flowing lava, cobblestone will be created and regenerated in the same spot whenever mined, providing a 100% renewable way of collecting cobblestone.
This will not work with source blocks, as a water source block affected by lava will turn into stone and lava source blocks affected by water will turn into obsidian with no chance of retrieving the liquid for either case.
[edit] Stone generator
If flowing lava falls onto flowing water, or a water source block, stone will be created and regenerated in the same spot whenever mined. When used in combination with a pickaxe enchanted with Silk Touch, this will provide a renewable source of stone and forgo the process of cooking cobblestone to create stone blocks. Since stone takes slightly less time than cobblestone to mine, a stone generator is a more efficient method of collecting cobblestone than a cobblestone generator.
[edit] Water for obsidian
Water can be used for making obsidian. If flowing water hits lava source blocks (not flowing lava blocks), the lava source blocks will turn into obsidian. Obsidian can only be mined using a diamond pickaxe or destroyed by Wither.
[edit] Water for clearing blocks
Water can be used for flushing away tall grass for building. This is also an efficient way to harvest Seeds and flowers, harvest crop fields, and to gather rails from abandoned mine shafts.
[edit] Water as blast controller
Water has 500 blast resistance. If a layer of water exists between a destructible block and common types of explosions, the water will absorb the force of the blast, and the block will not be destroyed.
A one-block-thick water screen will stop most explosions, such as from creepers, from reaching the other side. However, a player laying multiple blocks of TNT should mind the placement of the explosives, as primed TNT entities may launch each other through the water screen.
[edit] Water Door
A mob-proof door can be created using water. The player can place one or more water source blocks in a line at the top of a door frame then place slabs around the water sources and around where the water hits the ground in order to make the water not spread. The result is an interesting doorway that mobs, besides players, cannot travel through.
[edit] Underwater bases/shelters
If the player digs 3 blocks down into the bottom of a lake/water body, then digs into the wall of the hole (at least two blocks high), an underwater base can be made. To stop the water from flooding the base, dig the hole through which you enter 1 block deeper than the base's floor. Also, if you want to mine underwater, you can prevent drowning by digging a three block deep hole underwater, then going into the hole and covering the top with any material that blocks the flow of water. Alternatively, players may dig into walls or use signs to create air pockets. The hole will drain, because the water in that hole is flowing water, not a water source block. Cutting off the flowing water from the water source blocks the ocean is made of will drain the hole. The simplest two methods, however, are to use torches or a bucket. Torches, when placed on a block, will create a quick 1x1 air hole. Simply do this at eye level (2 blocks) with a wall next to yourself, and your air will replenish. A bucket can also pull water out of an area and leave an air gap momentarily, enough for the player to breathe.
If you wish to make a base on land that is hidden by water (to minimize theft or griefing in multi-player), you can use this method: Find a lake or body of water. Go to the bottom, and dig a 1 block hole as deep as you want it to be, then fill the hole with ladders. The ladders will eliminate the water, and you can jump in the lake and climb in and out of the hole (Though in order to climb out, you must hold the space bar when you reach the top of the hole in order to swim to the surface of the lake) Once you have filled the hole with ladders, you can dig/mine a cavern as large as you wish. You can use this cavern as your home or a base.
[edit] Transportation
[edit] Water elevators
A source block placed high above the ground will form a waterfall. (In Classic, a similar effect could be managed with sponges.) These can be used to swim safely up or down a great height. Since Infdev, swimming halfway off of a falling-water tile (that is, "on the edge" of the waterfall) lets a player avoid damage from drowning while swimming up or down.
[edit] Jumping off structures
Water can be used to jump off of buildings and structures that would otherwise kill you by building a pool to land into. As of 1.4.3 Pre-release, one-block-high shallow water is sufficient to prevent damage. This can be used along with water elevators to enter and exit a very deep mineshaft or cave in a matter of seconds, saving time, and also saving the wood and stone otherwise used to make ladders and steps. It is recommended that you make a fairly wide pool in case you hit the edge and die, unless your hole is 1x1.
[edit] Water brake
Alternatively, you can create a floating "water brake", using water held in mid-air with ladders, signs, or other non-solid blocks that resist water. Two or three blocks above the bottom of your vertical mineshaft, place a ladder to support the water block, then place the water block above the ladder. The way this works is that when the player collides with the water, it reverts the falling distance to zero and slows the player's downward velocity dramatically. The player can then safely land on the solid floor in a 2 block high air pocket under the water without taking fall damage or having to swim.
[edit] Water tram
Road-like canals can be built with flowing water contained by signs, pressure plates, or similar blocks. This provides horizontal transportation by boat that is significantly faster than sprinting.
[edit] Videos
Note: The video states that "Infinite water sources are found all over the world in shallower areas." Ever since the 1.5 update, this is no longer the case - water source blocks form even if there isn't a solid block under them, as long as there is a water source block under it, meaning even deep bodies of water can be used as infinite water sources.
[edit] History
|The texture for water was changed, adding animation.
|Sponges added, removing water.
|New water implementation, added springs and lakes.
|June 15, 2010
|Buckets can be used to place water.
|Lakes were added.
|Squid were added, being the first and only water mob.
|Dropped items in flowing water now move faster.
|Rain and snow would not fall through water.
|Because of the change in how land is generated, if a player is in a world that was made pre-1.8 and travels into new chunks, there's a chance that a very, very large ocean may be formed as the Ocean biome. There will also be a one-block-high drop in sea level along the discontinuity between the old and new chunks with the old chunks being higher.
|Water can be found in the farms and the well in villages.
|Two biomes were added that are almost all water: Ocean and River.
|Official release
|Respiration and Aqua Affinity enchantments added, which allow more breathing time in water and normal digging speed in water (without it, blocks take longer to break).
|One-block ceilings of opaque blocks immediately below water will have a "leak" particle effect (as with Lava), alerting the player that digging that block will unleash a torrent of water. Glass or any other transparent block is exempt from this.
|Desert Wells have one block of water in them.
|Dispensers were given the ability to shoot out the liquids inside water buckets. They could also suck up the liquids if activated again.
|Removed ability to bring water (using ice) into the nether.
|Changed sound when jumping and swimming in water.
|Changed falling damage rule. Players and mobs do not die from great heights in shallow water.[1]
|The texture of water is now accessible. Before, the texture was hidden in the code and not accessible by any normal bases.
|Water source blocks form even if there isn't a solid block under them.
|Flowing water in creative mode no longer slows you down.
|Water lakes don't generate in deserts anymore.
|Water, ice and portals are now visible through each other.
|A bug causes water to be invisible through ice again.
|The aforementioned bug was fixed.
|Pocket Edition Alpha
|Added water.
|Added water buckets.
|Console Edition
|Added water.
|Dispensers were given the ability to shoot out the liquids inside water buckets. They could also suck up the liquids if activated again, but did not fill up the buckets with the liquid dropped due to a bug.
|Fixed the bug where the liquid did not properly fill empty buckets.
|Pi Edition
|Added water.

Issues relating to "Water" are maintained on the issue tracker. Report issues there.
[edit] Trivia
- Zombies and Skeletons can survive daylight if they are in water.
- Endermen take damage, teleport, and become neutral when in contact with water. This makes water buckets useful for if you have accidentally angered an Enderman.
- Blocks under water will only take longer to break if your head is under water. If your head is above water the block will be destroyed at normal speed if you are touching the ground.
- If you sneak while in water, you will be as slow as if you were swimming in lava.
- In Classic, water flows without animation. This means it's infinite unless a player blocks the water.
- With the /give command, you can get the water block itself. This doesn't affect the physics similar to fire in which you can get the actual fire block. Also, if you have the water block and place it in the Nether, you can use water normally (but only if you have the block, NOT a water bucket).
- While underwater, the player's FOV is lowered by 10 to simulate light refraction.
- If there is a block in the water without a water source block directly beneath it, there is a small pocket of air beneath it. If a player swims up while underneath this block and holds the space bar, a glitch may occur; the water itself will look like air and will no longer seem to block light while holding the space bar. This glitch allows a clear view of the ocean floor, and also applies to lava. This glitch is client-side only, and may cause drowning in multiplayer.
- Blocks take 5 times as long to break if the player is underwater, and 25 times as long if they are both underwater and not touching the ground if you can get the drop by mining it.
- If you have a waterfall with no blocks directly next to it on any side (diagonal is OK), you move faster up the waterfall. Signs, ladders, etc. are declared "blocks" in this case, and will make you move slower. In other words, the pattern below will make you move faster up a waterfall (and slightly slower down the waterfall). As long as you maintain the four air blocks around the water, you will move faster upwards.
- There is an uncommon glitch where in the ocean, there are large floating air pockets without signs or fenceposts to create them.
- This is caused by Abandoned Mineshafts.
- Since 1.8, particles can be seen throughout the water. This is most noticeable underwater, but can also be seen above. The particles suspended in water are the same as the particles seen near bedrock level.
- Prior to 1.0.0, the Silk Touch enchantment could be used to gather ice in Survival mode and bring it to the Nether, making it perfectly possible to bring water to the Nether.
- Briefly in 1.9 Prerelease 5 both water and lava would appear when surrounded horizontally by four source blocks, regardless of the block underneath. Additionally water would form source blocks underneath new source blocks, creating pillars as far down as it could go unobstructed.
- As of 1.9 Prerelease 6, when water is not beneath any block, it will freeze in snowy biomes. However, breaking the ice block will still release water.
- Water flows at 0.25 seconds per block (1/4 second/Block), taking it approximately 1.75 second to reach the maximum water range on a flat surface (7 blocks excluding the source).
- The only hostile mobs to be able to swim/ford upstream towards the player are cave spiders and normal spiders. The rest do not have enough strength and are swept downstream.
- If you look at water from a distance it will appear to be vibrating.
- Sometimes a mob may get stuck in vertically flowing water, causing it to drown and die.
- Before version 1.3.1, it was possible to drown in a 3 block deep water pool if the player is unable to place blocks. The knock-back of water damage will keep the player from swimming up.
- In Peaceful mode, it takes twice as long to drown because of the constant regeneration of health.
- You can make a "water block" by placing four Glass Panes around water. This will let you see the water in a 3D shape of a cube.
- If you use right click with a water bucket on a water source block, it will make particles like when you break a block. This makes it seem like the water source block is a solid block.
