Published March 25, 2014Mediocre may be closer than it appears March 25, 2014 | By Jonathan Butcher | email When driving, if you look in your side-view mirror, you're reminded that "objects in mirror are closer than they appear." In Arizona, lawmakers, parents, and schools are struggling to gauge how close we are to high achievement levels in our state. Since 2011, more and more schools earned higher scores on the state's A-F report cards. Nearly 63 percent of schools in the state earned an A or a B on the most recent ratings.

Nikki finished high school in Mississippi with an occupational diploma, having struggled with her final exams. She was diagnosed with special needs in elementary school but did not take separate classes for students with special needs. Still, based on this earlier diagnosis and the courses she had completed, she qualified for an alternate certificate.

Love of Baseball is No Act for Garson
A bit of Hollywood fame touched Cooperstown on Tuesday, though those not devoted to the show "Sex and the City" or USA's "White Collar" might have recognized it.
Willie Garson doesn't look like a typical Hollywood star – a fact he acknowledges and that is even made fun of by Lee Majors in the movie Out Cold when he's called "short-stack."
A baseball fan since his youth in Highland Park, N.J., Garson chose the Mets over his father's Yankees to be different. While he fondly remembers the Mets success in 1986, he was only five years old for the 1969 Miracle Mets.
"When you're my size, it was never going to be football," Garson said about his connection to baseball. "And being a Mets fan, it's bonding when you lose. Yankees fans don't bond."
On Tuesday, he was transferring that love of the game from his youth to his son, Nathen, whom he adopted in 2009. Joining a colleague's son's travel baseball team in Cooperstown, Garson hoped to show a bit a simpler time and what made him love the game.
"I loved the artistry (of baseball cards). I remember, like Rollie Fingers, with that mustache," he said. "Baseball cards were everywhere and kids don't do that today. It's all internet and TV."
A prolific actor since the mid-1980s, Garson's filmography has numerous credits for smaller roles in noted film and TV like "Cheers," "Mr. Belvedere," "Quantum Leap," the Bill Murray movie Groundhog Day, the short-lived TV series "A League of Their Own" based on the baseball movie by the same name, "Friends," the Nic Cage-Sean Connery movie The Rock, "Melrose Place," "NYPD Blue," "Boy Meets World," "CSI" and much more.
Baseball fans might also recognize him from his role as Kevin, the doctor and fellow Red Sox-crazed compatriot to Jimmy Fallon's Ben in Fever Pitch. In one scene in particular, Garson's character – dressed in a full Red Sox uniform – had to out dance the others to get Sox-Yankees tickets.
"Those dance moves were self taught, a lot of people don't realize that," Garson said. "It almost killed me having to be a crazed Sox fan."
On set, Garson could revel in the Mets' 1986 triumph over the Red Sox, but on camera it was a different story. At one point in the movie, Fallon's character has locked himself away and is rewatching an endless loop of Bill Buckner's error in that cost the Red Sox Game 6 of the World Series which eventually led to the Mets victory in Game 7. In the movie, Garson's Kevin and others have to disgustedly stop the tape, destroy it and clean up their distraught friend.
His stardom has allowed him to do some special things. In 2010 after Sex and the City 2, he threw out first pitch before a Cubs game. Even after practicing with Nathen, he bounced it and 30,000 fans booed him. But his rendition of "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" made up for it when those same fans cheered him.
"Baseball is so accessible, even if you're untalented like me," Garson said. "You can still go out and play catch with your kid."
Trevor Hayes is the editorial production manager at the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum

A mammogram is an x-ray picture of the breasts. It is used to find breast tumors and cancer.
You will be asked to undress from the waist up. You will be given a gown to wear. Depending on the type of equipment used, you will sit or stand.
One breast at a time is rested on a flat surface that contains the x-ray plate. A device called a compressor will be pressed firmly against the breast. This helps flatten the breast tissue.
The x-ray pictures are taken from several angles. You may be asked to hold your breath as each picture is taken.
You may be asked to come back at a later date for more mammogram images. This does not always mean you have breast cancer. The doctor may simply need to recheck an area that could not be clearly seen on the first test.
Digital mammography is a newer technique. It allows the x-ray image of the breast to be viewed and manipulated on a computer screen. It improves accuracy, but it is not yet available everywhere.
Do not use deodorant, perfume, powders, or ointments under your arms or on your breasts on the day of the mammogram. These substances may hide the images. Remove all jewelry from your neck and chest area.
Tell your doctor and the x-ray technologist if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
The compressor surfaces may feel cold. When the breast is pressed down, you may have some pain. This needs to be done to get good quality images.
Mammography is performed to screen women to detect early breast cancer when it is more likely to be cured. Mammography is recommended for:
Mammography is also used to:
Discuss with your health care provider how often you need to have screening mammograms.
Breast tissue that shows no signs of a mass or calcification is considered normal.
Most abnormal findings on a screening mammogram turn out to be benign (not cancer) or nothing to worry about. New findings or changes must be further evaluated.
A radiology doctor (radiologist) may see the following types of findings on a mammogram:
At times, the following tests are also needed to further examine mammogram findings:
Comparing your current mammogram to your past mammograms helps the radiologist tell whether you had an abnormal finding in the past and whether it has changed.
When mammogram or ultrasound results look suspicious, a biopsy is done to test the tissue and see if it is cancerous. Types of biopsies include:
The level of radiation is low and any risk from mammography is very low. If you are pregnant and need to have an abnormality checked, your belly area will be covered and protected by a lead apron.
Routine screening mammography is not done during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.

Retinal artery occlusion is a blockage in one of the small arteries that carry blood to the retina . The retina is a layer of tissue in the back of the eye that is able to sense light.
Central retinal artery occlusion; Branch retinal artery occlusion; CRAO; BRAO
Retinal arteries may become blocked when a blood clot or fat deposits get stuck in the arteries. These blockages are more likely if there is hardening of the arteries (atherosclerosis ) in the eye.
Clots may travel from other parts of the body and block an artery in the retina. The most common sources of clots are the heart and carotid artery in the neck.
Most blockages occur in people with conditions such as:
If a branch of the retinal artery is blocked, part of the retina will not receive enough blood and oxygen. If this happens, you may lose part of your vision.
Sudden blurring or loss of vision may occur in:
The retinal artery occlusion may last for only a few seconds or minutes, or it may be permanent.
A blood clot in the eye may be a warning sign of clots elsewhere. A clot in the brain may cause a stroke.
Tests to evaluate the retina may include:
General tests should include:
Tests to identify the source of a clot from another part of the body:
There is no proven treatment for vision loss that involves the whole eye, unless it is caused by another illness that can be treated.
Several treatments may be tried. These treatments must be given within 2 - 4 hours after symptoms begin to be helpful. However, the benefit of these treatments has never been proven, and they are rarely used.
The health care provider should look for the cause of the blockage. Blockages may be signs of a life-threatening medical problem.
People with blockages of the retinal artery may not get their vision back.
Call your health care provider if you have sudden blurring or vision loss.
Measures used to prevent other blood vessel (vascular) diseases, such as coronary artery disease , may decrease the risk of retinal artery occlusion. These include:
Sometimes blood thinners may be used to prevent the artery from becoming blocked again. Aspirin or other anti-clotting drugs are used if the problem is in the carotid arteries. Warfarin or other more potent blood thinners are used if the problem is in the heart.

NEW WILMINGTON, Pa. - Dr. Amy Camardese, Westminster College associate professor of education, was published in the Winter 2014 issue of The Delta Kappa Gamma Bulletin. Camardese, a resident of Youngstown, is a member of the Beta Chi Chapter in Ohio.
"Using Technology to Bridge Cultural Differences" discusses the unique literacy and social studies International Book Sharing program that paired middle schools from two very different cultures - Israel and the United States. Students used email and video conferencing to discuss The Island on Bird Street by Uri Orlev. It is the story of an 11-year-old boy who hides in the Jewish ghetto during World War II.
The study reviewed the perspectives of principals, teachers, and students involved in the program. Qualitative research indicated the International Book Sharing program was much more than simply reading and discussing a common text. Students, teachers, and principals reported that understanding and tolerance for other cultures was significantly and positively affected, and that technology provides a nontraditional form of instruction beyond the walls of a school. Standards alignment and aspects of technology were also included in the study.
Camardese, who joined the faculty in 2001, earned an undergraduate degree from Ohio University, master's degree from the University of Pittsburgh, and Ph.D. from Kent State University.
The Delta Kappa Gamma Society International is a professional honorary society of women educators with over 90,000 members in approximately 2, 504 chapters in 18 countries worldwide. It focuses the collective energies of an international organization to achieve the greatest good for everyone involved in all fields of education, including students, instructors and administrators. The society promotes professional and personal growth of women educators and excellence in education through seminars, workshops, conferences, scholarships and the publication of members' research and writing.

Design and Simulation of a Valveless Polymeric Micropump for Drug Delivery Applications
S. Babu[1], and P. Manohar[2][1]Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering, M S Ramaiah Institute of Technology, Bengaluru, Karnataka, India
[2]Department of Medical Electronics, M S Ramaiah Institute of Technology, Bengaluru, Karnataka, India
Valveless micropumps have the advantage of being composed of least number of movable parts and hence can be used for long-term drug delivery applications. Their working principle is based on reciprocal forcing of fluid by an actuator through diffuser/nozzle elements generating a rectified mean flow.
Micropumps based on different actuating mechanisms have already been designed and fabricated using Poly-dimethylsiloxane (PDMS), Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA). These studies have focused only on the diffuser/nozzle parameters-like diffuser angle, topology, height and length for controlling flow rate and back-pressure.
In this paper we focus on the topology and dimensions of the pump chamber in addition to the diffuser/nozzle characteristics. All the simulations are done using COMSOL®

Kan. utility regulators approve operations changes
Published on -7/3/2013, 6:48 AM

TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) -- The commission that regulates utilities in Kansas on Tuesday approved changes in its operations after replacing its top staff member and facing allegations it violated the state's Open Meetings Act.
The changes approved by the Kansas Corporation Commission included scheduling two public meetings a week to handle routine business, rather than just one, the Topeka Capital-Journal reported (http://bit.ly/13k2oqh ). The KCC also will require that major staff changes be reviewed by all three commission members.
"There has to be opportunity for input," said commissioner Thomas Wright, the lone KCC member not appointed by Republican Gov. Sam Brownback.
But the KCC also agreed to delegate day-to-day responsibility for making future personnel changes to Chairman Mark Sievers, who said he will continue to coordinate decisions with the governor's office. Sievers said it would not be accurate to describe the KCC as a "free standing" agency from the executive branch.
Wright said the KCC's capacity to make appropriate regulatory decisions in telecommunications, oil and gas, transportation and electric industries could be compromised if it becomes dedicated to rubber-stamping the governor's decisions.
Wright agreed to delegate day-to-day personnel responsibilities to Sievers on the condition that any legal settlements with former employees not remain confidential.
Sievers confirmed that last month he removed Patti Petersen-Klein from the KCC executive director's position. The move came after The Capital-Journal published contents of a consultant's report based on interviews and surveys of KCC employees.
In the report, Petersen-Klein described the KCC's staff as dysfunctional, while employees criticized her management style. The consultants concluded that the rift between her and the staff couldn't be repaired.
Days later, Shawnee County District Attorney Chad Taylor filed an open meetings lawsuit against the commission over its approval of a rate increase for the water district of a small Salina housing development.
Taylor's complaint questioned the KCC's practice of issuing regulatory orders without having a public meeting and vote, by having an attorney confer with each member individually and issue a decision reflecting the majority's views. The KCC defended the practice but voted last week to abandon it indefinitely.
Commissioner Shari Feist-Albrecht proposed scheduling more public meetings to handle routine business, saying it would lessen the need for "pop-up" public sessions called on short notice.

Desai/Chia's build-out of this "cavernous space with no light in the back" introduces both light and logic with permeable partition walls. Vertical wood planks capped by bands of clear glass enclose private rooms and define open living areas. Light filters through the offset boards and the glass bands at night, emphasizing the high ceilings.
Said one smitten juror: "I like the way the wood and glass vibrate back and forth between each other."

DVD Includes:
- An informative 30-minute conversation with Mayo Clinic specialists
- A consultation with Mayo Clinic dieticians to teach you what to eat and what to avoid with respect to your condition
- An instruction by Rodney Yee which guides you through condition-specific relaxation poses and mediation exercises, designed to help relieve tension and enhance circulation
- A 52-page stress-management workbook
Print90 minutes.
PrintNew Wellness Solutions DVDs are the result of a groundbreaking collaboration between Gaiam and Mayo Clinic. Each DVD focuses on a different chronic condition and features integrated health action plans, specially designed to help you take charge of your health.

Rated 3 out of 5 by BonnieBlueIndigo Wellness solutions for fibromyalgia
Some good information. Dietary info almost too basic. There is just a hint of "blame the victim" and many anecdotal examples that are interesting but not useful as tools. The only section useful for ongoing use is the short part on yoga.

I gave this to my niece who has suffered from Fibromyalgia for many years. She says she really liked the information and the yoga guidance. At least one more option for her..

Rated 5 out of 5 by Vegas New Understanding
I was recently diagnosed and have more questions than answers. The doctors all seem to be in a hurry and give vague descriptions with solutions that feel less than helpful. This DVD helped me understand what is going on in my own body in a very informative manner while answering my questions and more. As a lifetime yogi and fan of Yee, I also appreciated a having a new option for using yoga for my health.
December 27, 2008
Rated 5 out of 5 by MartyAnne Worth Owning!
I will admit it, I was afraid that watching this once would be the only time I would need to use the DVD, so I sought it out at my library. After watching it, I had my husband watch it, too. Each segment has value, but the segments of Mayo Clinic Docs really hit home as far as explaining the lifestyle options I needed to have in place -- especially for my husband to understand!
I enjoyed the relaxation yoga by Rodney Yee a lot, so that clinched my decision to buy. I also ordered more relaxation yoga tapes and resources, plus blocks for support. I am happy to have at least two doctors who have given me new and uplifting advice!

text: 5 You may not get 7 individual books as shown, but PANIC NOT!MoleyB | 09/11/2012 | See all MoleyB's reviews (2)As the set I got had the final book as one volume, rather than 2 as pictured. But what you do get is a nice set that is ideal if you want to annoy people who are following the tv series and await season 3 as I type this :) Season 1 was closer to book 1 than I thought it would be. Season 2 combines books 2 and 3 and my feeling is that season 3 will cover books 3 and 4 with a snippet perhaps of 5. Anyway, an easy read that draws you into the story despite there being so many principle characters. All I'll say is try not to get too fond of them as Mr Martin has no trouble bumping them off, sometimes unexepectedly. No more spoilers from me but if you haven't got into the books yet and are enjoying the telly show, this is well worth a punt. Am on the final book as I write this and then I'll be as annoyed as those that climbed aboard at the start in the wait for the next part of 'A Song of Ice and Fire'. Oh. And I reallllllllly want my own Direwolf. Or seven. Enjoy.

Stomach cancer is cancer that starts in the stomach.
Cancer - stomach; Gastric cancer; Gastric carcinoma; Adenocarcinoma of the stomach
Several types of cancer can occur in the stomach. The most common type is called adenocarcinoma. It starts from one of the common cell types found in the lining of the stomach.
Adenocarcinoma is a common cancer of the digestive tract. It is not common in the United States. But it is common in eastern Asia, parts of South America, and eastern and central Europe. It occurs most often in men over age 40.
The number of people in the United States who develop this cancer has decreased over the years. Experts think this decrease may be in part because people are eating less salted, cured, and smoked foods.
You are more likely to get diagnosed with gastric cancer if you:
Symptoms of stomach cancer may include any of the following:
Diagnosis is often delayed because symptoms may not occur in the early stages of the disease. Or, patients may self-treat symptoms that gastric cancer has in common with other, less serious disorders (such as bloating, gas, heartburn, and fullness).
Tests that can help diagnose gastric cancer include:
Surgery to remove the stomach (gastrectomy ) is the only treatment that can cure adenocarcinoma of the stomach. Radiation therapy and chemotherapy may help. Chemotherapy and radiation therapy after surgery may improve the chance of a cure.
For persons who cannot have surgery, chemotherapy or radiation may improve symptoms and may prolong survival, but will likely not cure the cancer. For some patients, a surgical bypass procedure may relieve symptoms.
You can ease the stress of illness by joining a cancer support group . Sharing with others who have common experiences and problems can help you not feel alone.
Outlook varies based on how much the cancer has spread by the time of diagnosis. Tumors in the lower stomach are cured more often than those in the higher stomach. Chance of a cure also depends on how far the tumor has invaded the stomach wall and whether lymph nodes are involved.
When the tumor has spread outside the stomach, a cure is not possible. In this case, the goal of treatment is to improve symptoms.
Call your health care provider if symptoms of gastric cancer develop.
Screening programs are successful in detecting disease in the early stages in parts of the world where the risk of stomach cancer is much higher than in the United States. The value of screening in the United States and other countries with lower rates of stomach cancer is not clear.
The following may help reduce your risk of stomach cancer:

For the brand's signature masculine fragrance, Bottega Veneta pour Homme, Tomas Maier's vision elicits a journey north from the Veneto, where we find ourselves in the Dolomites. Amidst the lush mountain meadow, sits a farmhouse, a rustic retreat from reality. The interior is paneled with pinewood, and the windows are open wide, letting in a gentle breeze evocative of hay, fir cones and pine needles from the nearby woods, combined with the chilled air from the glacial stream that is bordered by wild irises.
A built-in wood bench is re-comforted by gracefully aged leather cushions, and seated there is a man, taking a break between his heavy urban schedule and an upcoming mountain climbing excursion. This vision fuses rugged sensuality, subtle intellect, and raw intrigue that lingers in the mind like a memory not soon to be forgotten.

Paget's disease is a disorder that involves abnormal bone destruction and regrowth. This results in deformity of the affected bones.
Osteitis deformans
The cause of Paget's disease is unknown. It may be due to genetic factors or a viral infection early in life.
The disease occurs worldwide, but is more common in Europe, Australia, and New Zealand.
In people with Paget's disease, there is an abnormal breakdown of bone tissue in specific areas. This is, followed by abnormal bone formation. The new area of bone is larger, but weaker. The new bone is also filled with new blood vessels.
The affected bone may only be in one or two areas of the skeleton, or throughout the body. It more often involves bones of the arms, collarbones, leg, pelvis, spine, and skull.
Most people with the condition have no symptoms. Paget's disease is often diagnosed when an x-ray is done for another reason. It may also be discovered when trying to find the cause of high blood calcium levels.
If they do occur, symptoms may include:
Tests that may indicate Paget's disease include:
This disease may also affect the results of the following tests:
Not all people with Paget's disease need to be treated. Patients who may not need treatment include those who:
Paget's disease is commonly treated when:
Drug therapy helps prevent further bone breakdown and formation. Currently, there are several classes of drugs used to treat Paget's disease. These include:
Acetaminophen (Tylenol) or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications (NSAIDs) may also be given for pain. In severe cases, orthopedic surgery may be needed to correct a deformity.
People with this condition may benefit from taking part in support groups for people with similar experiences.
Most of the time, the condition can be controlled with medicines. A small number of people may develop a cancer of the bone called osteosarcoma. Some patients will need joint replacement surgery.
Call your health care provider if you develop symptoms of Paget's disease.

At many colleges and universities, applications get submitted but are not really read thoroughly. At Butler University, this is NOT the case. The fact is, we carefully review each and every piece of your application to ensure we are making the correct admission decision. Rather than just looking at test scores and grades, we take a holistic approach to reviewing your application. So, what does the application review process look like? Here's a brief overview for you:
- When we receive your finished application, the operations team ensures that we have every piece that is needed for it to be considered complete (i.e. test scores, transcript, essay, resume, etc.).
- The operations team then sends it into the appropriate counselor's queue.
- The first thing the counselor reads is the actual application (either the Butler application or the Common Application).
- We review your transcript to see what types of classes you are taking, how rigorous your schedule is (ex: AP, IB, honors, etc.), if you've completed the necessary coursework for the program you are applying to, and any grade trends that we should be aware of.
- From there, we evaluate your test scores. We do not have a preference between the SAT or ACT, but we do require at least one writing score.
- Next, we read your essay or personal statement. This is your chance to shine! It is an open space for you to share who you are and showcase your use of the English language. Despite what you might hear, we actually read every single word in your essay or personal statement. Please know that we aren't just asking for an essay just for the sake of asking.
- After reading your essay, we review your resume of activities. We are looking to see what clubs and organizations you are a part of, if you've been a leader in any of those areas, whether or not you volunteer or work part-time, and more. Remember, we don't need your entire history. It is sufficient to only include what you've done during your high school years.
- Reviewing your Secondary School Report (SSR) is the next step in this timely process. A SSR is prepared by your school and gives a profile of you, the school, the student body, etc.
- If you have a letter or letters of recommendation, we review those next. Again, we DO read every single one of these. Letters of recommendation are a great way for us to get to know you better, so included them whenever possible.
- Finally, we make the admission decision. For a complete list and description of decision types, view our latest blog.
There is so much that goes into every step of the application review process and this is just a short overview. We realize that every single student is different and every circumstance is different. That is why we are so careful throughout this process. If you have more specific questions, contact your admission counselor or comment below.

It's believed the defenseman is seeking a deal worth in the neighborhood of $7 million per season, while the club appears unwilling to eclipse $6 million.
Personally, based on his play last season, I don't think he's worth $6 million per year, much less $7 million.
I'll be a little upset if they sign him for $7 million per year. That's ridiculous. He has had one stellar season. He hasn't done enough yet to warrant that kind of contract. He's only 23.
He could very well be the next Bobby Orr...who knows how good he can be. But he hasn't done it yet. Do it, and then get paid.
I hope they don't cave into his $7 million demand.
I was hoping to get him under contract for 5 years at about $5.5 million per. Doesn't look like that's going to happen.
I think that's pretty generous based on his career as a whole so far.

June 25th sees the world premier of Listen, Little Man!, a new work by legendary punk/jazz chanteuse Eve Libertine and maverick electronic artist Mark Webber. Drawing on the writings and research of Wilhelm Reich this is a semi-improvised performance for voice and signal generators with back-projected, scrolling graphic score.
Libertine was one of the two female vocalists in Crass. Her works with the band include the controversial single "Reality Asylum", as well as performing most of the vocals on the group's third album, Penis Envy (1981), the lyrics of which have a heavy feminist content.
After the dissolution of Crass in 1984, Libertine has worked with her guitarist son Nemo Jones, performance artist A-Soma, trained as a classical singer, performed as part of Crass Agenda/Last Amendment with Penny Rimbaud, Matt Black (of Coldcut), Christine Tobin, Julian Siegel, Ingrid Laubrock, Nabil Shaban, Kate Shortt and others. In 2004 Crass Agenda released a recording of Penny Rimbaud's Savage Utopia, a jazz and breakbeats based composition intended as a critique of consumerism and post-9/11 American culture, on which she performs vocals along with A-Soma and Christine Tobin.
Libertine held her first exhibition of artwork, entitled Head On, at the 96 Gillespie gallery in London in September 2005. She has designed album sleeves for releases by Christine Tobin and Partisans.
Mark Webber (b1965) is an electronic artist who has worked in experimental music, performance and film for the past 25 years. His eclectic back catalogue includes works such as the video portrait Sunayani (Sonic Arts Network), the live tape work Concrète Jungle (Henry Moore Institute) and Four White Walls (Opera North) a chamber opera for five singers and electronics.
Listen, Little Man! is a performance for voice, signal generators and video. Drawing directly on the writings and research of Dr. Wilhelm Reich it represents a new creative partnership between Mark and Eve. The pair are already working on an operatic adaptation of Charlotte Gilman Perkins' The Yellow Wallpaper for voices, electronics and animation, to be staged late 2011.
25th June at Les Atelier Claus, Brussels, Belgium
Based on "Listen Little Man" a book written by Wilhelm Reich in 1945.

"Very pleased with the entire process...the stickers were the match to baby shower invitations. Will be ordering thank-you cards in same design. Appreciated having the Design Team look over my order prior to processing it. Thank you tinyprints!"
"I purchased these labels for packaging to use for my business. I loved the design so much I have since purchased the rest of the matching items to go along with my stickers. Beautiful work from Petite Alma!!"
"I ordered these with my daughter's name for school, etc. They are vibrant and fun and she loves them! I appreciate how easy the ordering process was and the quality of the stickers."
"The design is precious. I can use it on stationary, gift tags, and most recently graduation cards. I received the stickers within a couple days. The product Tinyprints provides cannot compare to other similar products on the Internet. The price is excellent !!!!"
"These are beautiful and perfect for favors! I absolutely LOVE this design. My only issue is that you can't fit too many words on it. I had to really condense what I wanted to say on them! Other than that, they are wonderful:)"

In Christianity what are specific real life examples of how the devil works?
Also, any specific examples of how the devil works in the Bible?
In Christianity what are specific real life examples of how the devil works? Also, any specific examples of how the devil works in the Bible? |
In addition to being the accuser. Satan is also the "stumbling block". That's the effect to which Jesus uses the term against Peter when he attempts to dissuade Him from the cross. So, Satan's job in one sense is to trip us up. |
Satan is a Hebrew word (Ha-Satan) that means The Accuser. In Job 1, we see the Accuser doing what he does best- making accusations against God's chosen. Because the devil is a created being, and therefore nowhere near being God's equal, he can only accuse people in front of God, and God may allow the Devil to bring about events as a result. Interestingly, the point of the Gospel is because that there is therefore now No condemnation for those who believe in Christ Jesus, the Devil has lost his one ability over God's elect, namely the ability to accuse the Brethren. |
The Devil works in all evil. The father of lies, the World is where he reigns. George MacDonald said, "The one principle of hell is - 'I am my own.'" Perhaps the biggest lie of all and the source of pride. |
Satan's Tactics In the Genesis account, we see a few key methods:
Man's Weakness The description in verse 6 identifies key areas where Eve was tempted (and all of us are today as well). This is quite interesting in light of 1 John 2:15-17
I've tried to summarize these a number of times and have come up with Pleasures, Possessions, and Pride as well as Appetites, Acquisitions, and Aspirations. The first seems to be an appeal to physical desires that are not evil in themselves. In fact, God had amply provided for those. The second seems to possibly refer to greed and the desire to possess, as advertising is very visual in its appeal. The third is perhaps the desire to be something or someone. Perhaps What I Do, What I Have, and Who I Am better fits these. Conclusion So, Satan obscures the truth, promises benefit from sin, deceives, lies, and attacks the character of God. He appeals to our desire to do, to have, and to be. |

What makes you proud to be Canadian?By: Blake Richards | Posted: Monday, Jan 20, 2014 12:28 pm We are now less than a month away from the beginning to the 2014 Winter Olympics. I can�t wait. Like no other event, the Olympics brings Canadians together as we cheer for our national heroes. The event also shines a spotlight on some of the lesser-known sports and athletes, giving us the opportunity to gain a greater appreciation for the heart and sacrifice necessary to compete at the highest level. While our athletes go for gold in Russia, here at home our government is preparing for another major event: the 150th anniversary of Canada�s Confederation, to be celebrated in 2017. Like the Olympics, this important milestone gives us the opportunity to celebrate Canadian heroes as well as learn more about the country we call home. The people who carved our history not only built a nation but truly reflect the Canadian values we hold dear today. Between now and our 150th anniversary, we will mark significant milestones that tell Canada�s story. For instance, in 2014, these will include the centennial of the beginning of the First World War and the 75th anniversary of the start of the Second World War. This year also marks the 150th anniversary of the Charlottetown and Quebec Conferences, which laid the foundations for Canada�s Confederation. In coming years, we will mark the bicentennial of Sir John A. Macdonald�s birth, the 125th anniversary of the Staley Cup, as well as the centennial of women�s suffrage when Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba led the entire Commonwealth by granting women the right to vote. As a member of the House of Commons committee on Canadian Heritage, it is my hope that by marking these important milestones, we can unlock a greater understanding of what it means to be Canadian as well as spark an interest in Canada�s history among today�s youth. To that end, we need your help; we want to know how you would like to mark our 150th anniversary. Seeking your input, we have posted a questionnaire online at: Canada.ca/150. What events and historic figures make you most proud to be Canadian? How should your community mark the occasion? Let us know what you think � milestones like this come along once in a generation.

This happened about 5 or 6 years ago. It's something that's always been in the back of my mind and I've never really shared it with anyone. I was always one fascinated by the night sky. Stars, planets, the idea that space is just far too big for us to be alone. I wouldn't by any means call myself even an amateur astronomer. I just loved looking through my telescope on cool clear nights. That being said, I never did any research on the names and designations of stars or anything of that sort until after this strange experience.
It occurred in a dream. At least it felt like a dream. It kind of had that fuzzy feel to it as if my brain was having trouble processing some of what was going on. I just remember coming into contact with people who for some reason I knew were not of this world. Even despite the fact that they looked human. That much I knew during the encounter but when I try to remember specific facial features it becomes a blur. I remember that there were two of them. They showed me a rather simple drawing of a star with 2 asteroid belts. Then showed me another drawing which at the time to me just looked like a backwards number 3 or a fancy letter E. I figured they were trying to tell me where they were from as simply as they could. That was it. I woke up, thought "That was weird." and just kind of chucked it to the back of my mind.
A matter of weeks later I was on Wikipedia just killing some time out of complete boredom. The article of the day happened to be about the star Epsilon Eridani...which just so happened to have 2 asteroid belts. I realized that the beings in the dream were showing me the Greek letter Epsilon. I got goosebumps and just didn't know what to think. I knew absolutely nothing about Epsilon Eridani. I was never one for the science channel at the time and I just knew it couldn't have been something that my mind manifested from watching or hearing something on TV. It was just all very strange to me and I just can't come up with a logical reason for that dream. I can say that since that point I've become far more interested in what and who is in our galactic neighborhood.

Webchat: What every woman should be doing for a financially secure future
Log onto our Web TV show today for a step by step guide to making sure you and your family is protected financially
Tuesday 31 May 2011
Show date: Tuesday 31st May
Show time: 12:45
More than ever before, women are taking on more responsibility when it comes to money matters at home. New research shows that increasingly, more women are becoming the main breadwinner in their family and that the majority of them now look after the family's budget; from getting the bills paid, to making the big financial decisions in the home.
However, while in 2011 the traditional tide of men being the main family earner and decision maker is turning it appears that women are failing to financially protect themselves. The research highlights the fact that millions of working women do not have a savings account, life insurance or income protection, leaving themselves and their families at risk.
So what should you be doing now to secure your own and your family's financial future?
One woman who knows what it's like to be financially in control of her household is the woman behind the MOBOs, Kanya King and she also knows how important it is for women to make sure they themselves are financially protected.
Log on to our Web TV show today where Kanya and Roger Edwards from Bright Grey will give you advice on how to make sure you are financially secure now and in the future.

The TASSIMO Single Cup Brewing System
How do you brew your favorite coffee to perfection, every single time? TASSIMO Knows.
Whether it's a latte, a macchiato, a cappuccino, an espresso or a regular coffee, TASSIMO is the only single cup. It's all in the Intelligent Barcode Technology, or INTELLIBREW™, we use that measures the right amount of water, the perfect brew time and the exact temperature.
You're only one touch away to the beverage you want
Just push one button and the TASSIMO brewer reads the barcode on the T DISC and starts brewing. Then you're on your way to delicious, well-crafted coffees, teas or specialty drinks. The controls are easy to read and the brewing process is simple, so you won't have to fumble through a manual to figure it out.
It's your drink, your style, your way...
The TASSIMO single cup brewer is made to suit everyone's lifestyle and taste. So although the brew cycle is fully automatic, you can shorten it at anytime to make your drink stronger. Or press a button and you can add more water for a milder brew.
Want it to-go? Just adjust the cup stand and your travel tumbler is a perfect fit!
And it's made in a flash
The innovative flow heater technology virtually eliminates heat-up and start-up time. No waiting for water to boil! Whether it's your first cup of the day or your after-dinner foamy treat, every beverage is ready in about a minute.
Keeping it clean is easy
With automatic cleaning and easy-to-use descaling, the TASSIMO single cup brewer practically cleans itself! Plus any parts you'd like to keep clean are easy to reach, easy to rinse and dishwasher safe.
Even the water tanks are detachable!
