|カズマ Kazuma
|Naruto Shippūden Episode #63
|Appears in
|Voice Actors
Kazuma (カズマ, Kazuma), also known as Furido (フリド, Furido), was a member of the Twelve Guardian Ninja, and eventually led half of the group to stage a coup d'etat against the Hokage.
Kazuma was once part of the Twelve Guardian Ninja. His belief was that the Land of Fire shouldn't have two kings, and made it his goal in life to unite the Land of Fire under one king. He tried to persuade the Fire Daimyō to help him with his goal by ridding the second king, the Hokage. However, he was stopped by Asuma Sarutobi, who told him that the daimyō did not agree with him. After a long fight, Kazuma, Asuma, and Chiriku were left as the only surviving members of the Twelve Guardian Ninja. Kazuma then had one final showdown with Asuma, where he was ultimately struck down. Chiriku was the only one who knew about this, and kept it a secret.
Despite Asuma and Chiriku's initial belief, Kazuma had survived. His goals had not changed despite all his allies now being dead. He decided that the only way he could unite the Land of Fire under one king would be to destroy Konoha, along with its Hokage. He spent the next several years training and coming up with a plan to achieve his goal in life. By the time he felt ready to carry out his plan, he grew so much older and his appearance had changed so much that Asuma barely recognised him. He later changed his name to Furido and persuaded three powerful shinobi, Fuen, Fūka, and Fudō to join him in his plan to reduce the chances of him failing. During the Fire Temple filler arc, he was seen with a long pale scar going diagonally across his face. It can be assumed that he received this scar from the finishing strike of Asuma.
During the attack of the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox on Konoha, Kazuma discovered that the Nine-Tails' chakra was so great that it had leaked out. Kazuma took advantage of this by collecting the extra chakra. He then infused Sora with this chakra and cells from the Nine-Tails, and kept it mostly contained inside his son with various seals as insurance for later.
According to Sora, Kazuma was once a kind, loyal, and upbeat man who took pride in his appearance and abilities, which was proven by how hard he trained and how diligent he was in keeping his Twelve Guardian Ninja sash clean and in good condition. According to Asuma, Kazuma was a man with great faith in his beliefs, and was willing to do whatever it took to make his dreams come true. Kazuma proved to have much resolve in the actions he took. Despite the heartless and destructive means he went through, he truly believed that his goal for "uniting" the Land of Fire by getting rid of Konohagakure and branding the rest of the world with the Land of Fire's flag was the right thing to do, convinced it was the only way to truly bring prosperity to the country.
As Furido, he appeared to be laid-back and a little goofy, regularly making light of the battle. But this only served to distract others from his true nature. In truth, Kazuma would stop at nothing to "unite" the Land of Fire. He had abandoned all forms of emotional attachment to pursue his goals, regardless of who he must sacrifice, as he showed through his use of his own son.
As Kazuma, he wore simple dark clothing that matched his brown hair, long pants and a short-sleeved shirt with black shoes. He also wore a red sweatband on his head. As Furido, he wore a purple garment that had other colours on the lining, matching the ones worn by his team. He also carried a staff that could extend on a chain. His hair had become white and long compared to his younger self and he had a scar on his face from Asuma's final attack on him.
As one of the former Twelve Guardian Ninja, Kazuma was a highly capable ninja. In his quest to prove Konoha as worthless and ultimately destroy it, Kazuma gathered a variety of proficient skills.
His preferred battle style appeared to be taijutsu, of which he showed great prowess in, able to toy with Sora, who is highly skilled in close-range combat and fight on par with one of Konoha's top ninja in Asuma Sarutobi. His primary weapon in battle was a multi-section monk staff, which he could strike from a distance with great accuracy using the multiple parts split with a chain in between the joint and destroy large boulders and trees in the blink of an eye. He was also proficient at close-range with a triple-bladed hand claw.
Kazuma showed impressive knowledge of sealing techniques, demonstrated from how easily he and his team passed through Fuen's giant barrier and effectively kept Sora's demon chakra contained until he finally chose to release it. His knowledge was also great enough to dispel techniques used to trap him, like Sai's ink technique binding him.
Other Skills
Kazuma could refract light to conceal himself from view of his enemies. He was also proficient in various element techniques. Like his former ally Asuma, Kazuma was also a wind-nature who could infuse his weapons with wind natured chakra to greatly increase their penetrative power. He could also use earth natured chakra to merge himself into and himself within a forest environment. Combined with his earth-nature, Kazuma also was able to use at least two different methods to revive the dead. He could also revive the dead in two different methods. The first version required a large area of earth, which would allow him to continuously summon people as mindless zombies. The second version would bring a person back as a perfect resurrection, able to use all its skills from when alive. Unlike the Impure World Reincarnation technique, the soul is not bounded to the body. This method requires a large amount of energy (i.e. electricity).
Part II
Twelve Guardian Ninja Arc
Furido encountered Team Yamato in the fields near the Fire Temple, after they had been lured there by the stolen bodies of Kitane, Tōu, Seito and Nauma. There, he came face-to-face with Sora again for the first time in years. Clearly, Furido was more interested in how Sora used his powers than how he had grown as a person. During their skirmish, Furido continued to taunt Sora to force him to show more of his true power. Eventually, Furido performed the Five Elements Unseal on Sora, causing his son's demonic arm to appear more frequently.
Later, shortly before the attack on Konoha, he revealed to Sora that it had been Asuma who had "killed" his father as part of his plan to get Sora to join him. Initially he had convinced Sora to join him in his plans to destroy Konoha's "king", but then Sora had discovered that Furido intended to also destroy the entire village and all of its inhabitants, prompting Sora to help stop him. When his initial plan to destroy Konoha by using four resurrected Ninja Guardian members to perform Limelight failed, he decided to rely on unleashing the full force of Sora's demonic chakra, knowing full well that Sora's body would not be able to handle it and that he would ultimately destroy everything around him.
After all of Furido's allies perished, Asuma and Team Yamato caught up to Furido, where Asuma revealed who Furido really was. It was then that Kazuma revealed that it was because of him that Sora possessed his demonic powers. Whilst Naruto tried to deal with Sora, Asuma chased after Kazuma into the woods. There Asuma scolded Kazuma for using Sora as a tool and weapon. Eventually, Kazuma was captured (with assistance from Sai). Asuma tried one last time to make Kazuma understand that his goal was unnecessary as, in reality, they were both trying to protect the wrong king. Refusing to believe that, Kazuma broke free and attempted to finish off Asuma, but was struck down by his former ally. As Kazuma died, he voiced his fear for the future of the country. Asuma merely stated that it would continue to exist as it always has, which Kazuma scoffed at.
- As an anime filler character, Kazuma seemed to be made as an extension over the repeated talking about the "true king" during the Hidan and Kakuzu Arc.
- Kazuma's favourite food seemed to be roasted sweet potatoes, which he was seen eating often.
- While for different reasons, Kazuma and Minato Namikaze both put part of the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox into their respective sons.

text: Minneapolis political leaders prove once again that they see the Black community as fools. No one has been deceived by the weak apology and weak response by the mayor's office and City Councilman Don Samuels to the misbehavior of Minneapolis police officers Thole and Powell in Green Bay recently. In fact, I suspect that the fact that the leadership confined their comments to what they hope would happen is evidence of their cowardice and maybe even complicity. Yes, complicity. At this hour in Minneapolis when it has become more than obvious that there is rogue force, or at least a culture in the Minneapolis police that believes it is above the law, what is needed is decisive leadership.

I just noticed an ad in Bicycling on Electra's new "Townie" bikes with radical geometry. It seems like Electra cleaned up the entire line and is now banking it's future on this new Townie with low seat, roadster style frame that supposed to be more comfortable than anything out there.
It seems like Electra is promoting that cyclists should be riding "flat foot" on the peddle instead of simply using the top of the arch. I looked at the low riding position and it seems like you're sitting too low on the saddle even though the peddales are further away. Wouldn't this cause knee pain?
How many people here think that Electra is simply pulling our leg?

Boot Camp at Livingston Prepares Students for College SuccessA boot camp sounds like a tough thing to go through; however, some students did just that when Volunteer State Community College at Livingston and Gallatin implemented Boot Camp this fall. The new program was recently awarded a $26,860 grant from the Tennessee College Access and Success Network (TCASN). Plans for the next Boot Camp, scheduled for January, are underway.
The program, for students ages 25 and older, is designed to help non-traditional students gain the skills and confidence they need to be successful in college. "Boot Camp is a phenomenal program for anyone who is unsure about how to navigate through college," said Heather Dillon, Supplemental Instruction Leader at Vol State at Livingston. "I highly recommend that if you have the opportunity to be involved with Boot Camp that you jump at the chance."
Some students begin their college careers under-prepared, unsure of themselves, and unable to master the routine of college life. The one week program targets students of potential who could do well in college with some additional preparation, and helps them overcome barriers to success. The Boot Camp approach is a departure from the traditional seminars that focus on academic remedial work and is designed to guide students to maximize their strengths and abilities in order to be successful in college. Vol State student leaders who have been in the same situation lead the boot camp and remain as mentors for the new students throughout the year.
"This camp has given me such amazing confidence through the information I have taken away that I feel as though nothing is impossible and I have no limits. Boot Camp at Livingston has literally been a mind altering and life changing experience for me, "said Rachel Jacoby, who recently completed Boot Camp.
Spring 2014 Boot Camp at Vol State at Livingston is scheduled for:
Monday, January 13, from 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.
Tuesday, January 14, from 5:00 p.m. – 9:00 p.m.
Thursday, January 16, from 5:00 p.m. – 9:00 pm.
The Boot Camp is also being held in Gallatin at the main campus in January. For details on both sessions email email@example.com

- Abstract
- The chemically modified electrode, which was constructed by depositing hemoglobin at the surface of glassy carbon electrode, show significant electrocatalytic activity to the reduction of nitric oxide. The catholic peak potential is -0.68V (vs.SCE). The effect of solution pH on the electrochemistry of nitric oxide was also studied. When used as an amperometric detector, the current is linear with concentration in the range from 2.9x10^-4 M to 1.1x10^-2 M and the detection limit is 1x10^-4 M nitrite.

Tanzanian businessmen have been advised to use intellectual property rights as a new strategy to improve the quality of their products with so as to become competitive in international markets.
The call made in Dar es Salaam by Business Registration and Licensing Authority (BRELA) chief executive officer Asteriano Mahingila when speaking to journalists soon after he opened a workshop for consumers.
He said Brela will work hard to ensure that the strategy is well understood and employed by businessmen to improve the quality of their products.
He added that the strategy would also help to educate businesses so they can produce quality products with newly acquired technologies.
According to him, the biggest challenge facing Brela is lack of education among businessman in implementing the new strategy.
"We have many traders in this country who can manufacture quality products but they fail in creativity. With this new technology it is my hope that many people will start exporting their commodities," he said.
Mahingila said their strategy focuses on business creativity by using available resources for the purpose of development rather than copying the products of others.
Rogasian Mavuna, a workshop participant called upon Brela to translate the new strategy document in Kiswahili so that every person can understand and improve the quality of products instead of the current trend where English is only used.
He said if the strategy will be in the language that is understood by all, it will help businesses to improve the quality of their products.

Robin Washut
The day Nebraska's defense had been waiting for all season finally came, as the famed Blackshirts were officially passed out prior to Monday's practice.
After two and a half games of dominant defensive football, beginning in the second half against Ohio State and on through Saturday's dismantling of Michigan State, head coach Bo Pelini he had and his staff finally felt the unit had earned the right to wear the most talked about practice jerseys in college football.
"I put a lot of stock into practice more than what happens on Saturday," Pelini said. "It's a culmination of how you practice and prepare and timing. I really don't care what people outside think about when or why you should give them out. It is something you talk about as a staff and when you feel like the time is right, you go for it."
There were 20 confirmed Blackshirt recipients, marking the most ever in recent memory.
Defensive ends Cameron Meredith, Jason Ankran, Josh Williams and Eric Martin; defensive tackles Baker Steinkuhler, Terrence Moore, Thaddeus Randle and Chase Rome; linebackers Lavonte David, Will Compton and Sean Fisher; and defensive backs Alfonzo Dennard, Ciante Evans, Stanley Jean-Baptiste, Andrew Green, Daimion Stafford, Austin Cassidy, P.J. Smith, Lance Thorell and Justin Blatchford were the 20 players seen wearing Blackshirts at Monday's practice.
"It felt like an honor to be able to wear a black jersey today, because it shows that our defense has come a long way," Dennard said. "Everybody had been doubting us, so we're just trying to show the world that our defense is back."
Pelini has taken plenty of criticism over the years for his decision to wait on passing out the Blackshirts until later in the season. Since the tradition started back in the 1960s under former head coach Bob Devaney, the jerseys had been handed out before the season as a way to distinguish the 11 defensive starters.
When Pelini took over in 2008, though, he opted to wait until his defense earned their Blackshirts with strong play on the field. After holding the Spartans to just three points and 187 yards of total offense, he felt this week was the time to break them out.
"I said when I first got back here and I wasn't the coach at the time - it was Frank (Solich) - and I said that the Blackshirts should be earned," Pelini said. "It isn't something simple that should be granted. We talked a lot last week as a whole football team about how we play to a certain standard.
"To me, that means practicing to a certain standard. Have we reached the standard that we want? No, we haven't. But when you start heading in that direction, preparing well and doing the right things, to me, that is a signal that guys get it."
Dennard said he actually preferred waiting to get a Blackshirt because it gave players a goal to attain each season, and the only way to do it was to perform everyday in practice and on game days.
"I feel like we've got to earn the Blackshirts, because it's a statement," Dennard said. "If he had given it to us early in the season, we weren't doing a very good job, so it wouldn't mean anything."

Huskers not letting up after big win
One of the biggest problems for Michigan State last week was that it was trying to stay fired up and focused after pulling two straight emotional victories over rivals Michigan and Wisconsin.
Instead, they came out flat and got run over by a much more inspired Husker squad.
This week, Nebraska is on the other side of the spectrum. The early line on this week's home game against Northwestern opened at 19 points, and the Wildcats are 3-5 overall and just 1-4 in the Big Ten this season.
While it may seem like NU is the clear favorite this weekend, the players and coaches insist that the team is just as focused on Northwestern as they have been the past three weeks.
"Our approach on a Monday is no different than had we lost the other day," Pelini said. "You can only control what is in front of you right now. Our guys' mindset is to look at the good things and learn from them and look at the things you need to do better. Hopefully, we can grow from the things we didn't do so well. You hope each week you make progress and get a little better.
"I think this week is going to be a tremendous challenge for us -- to come back emotionally after all the hype surrounding that game for a lot of reasons. The last thing you want to do is take a deep breath here now. You want to put your foot on the gas pedal and keep going. That is a challenge for college students and kids that tend to read the Internet and papers. We have not arrived. We have a lot ahead of us to keep getting better."
Pelini has emphasized the importance of staying focused on the process for the past four seasons, and it looks like it's starting to fully set in with NU's players. Redshirt freshman wide receiver Kenny Bell said the team has fully bought into Pelini's one-game-at-a-time approach, which would be as important as ever in a week like this.
"I think (the coaching staff's) influence is the best thing for our football team," Bell said. "I think we have the same mindset as our coaches. It's on to the next one. That was a cool win. It was fun, but in hindsight now it doesn't mean anything. We've got to move on to the next one and go beat Northwestern this week.
"I don't think we'll ever be comfortable unless we're hoisting that crystal ball at 14-0 at the end of the year, so absolutely not. Our mentality is we've got a lot of room for improvement to make."
Burkhead to get much needed break
If anyone on the team earned a few plays off this week in practice, it's junior running back Rex Burkhead.
After his workhorse 35 carries against Michigan State on Saturday, Burkhead said his legs were still pretty sore from the beating he took in the win, but overall said he felt OK. He added that the cramps in his calves that had him down on the ground for a few minutes in the third quarter still had his muscles a little tight, but he expected to be good to go by the Northwestern game.
"A little sore," Burkhead said. "I'm not going to lie. But we came out with a win, so that's always a good feeling. It makes you not a sore as you think you would be."
While Burkhead may say he's ready to get back to work this week, Pelini said he had no intention of putting any more unnecessary work on his star running back than he needed to, especially early on in the week.
"He is actually feeling pretty good today, but like I said, he had 35 rushes and did what he did," Pelini said. "We will limit him, especially early in this week. We might have to put handcuffs on him to get him out of there but we will do that."
Burkhead said he's been spending a lot of time in the cold tub and massaging his legs in order to work out the stiffness. Being the dedicated player he is, though, Burkhead said it would be tough not doing as much in practice as he normally does, but he was glad the three freshmen backs behind him would get a chance to get a few more reps in his place.
"Of course you want to be out there," he said. "Every chance you get, every rep you get is a chance to get better. It's tough to understand that. I respect the coaches' decision. There is time where you need rest. After you get a ton of reps in a game or practice, you maybe need it a little bit more. I love being out there. I love competing and playing with the guys, so it's kind of tough to stay back at times."
As if he couldn't be any nicer or humble, Burkhead even apologized to reporters for being late to Saturday's post-game press conference because he went straight to the cold tub.
That's what makes Rex Burkhead who he is, though. That, and being able to put an entire offense on his shoulders and come back ready for more the next week.
"I don't know how Rex Burkhead is even moving, man," Bell said. "I don't think the guy sleeps. I think he goes home and plugs himself into the wall and charges. There's something wrong with that guy. He's a freak."
Quick hits
***Quarterback Taylor Martinez said he jammed his right thumb at the beginning of the third quarter on Saturday, which forced him to hand the ball off with his left hand at times. He said it was already feeling better, and he would be fine for this week's game against Northwestern.
***Martinez was also asked about the criticism he's received over the past two years for his unconventional throwing motion, and he said he's actually been told by opposing players and coaches that he has one of the quickest throwing releases of any quarterback in the country.
"I think I probably have one of the quickest releases in the nation," Martinez said. "That's what a lot of coaches have told me so far. No matter how the ball gets there, your release is the main thing about your throwing motion."
***Defensive coordinator Carl Pelini wasn't all that excited about the Blackshirts being handed out Monday, saying he wished the jerseys were not awarded based on performance. He said the whole thing is more of a distraction than anything, and he would rather the team be strictly focused on getting ready for Northwestern.
"It means a lot, I guess," Pelini said. "Part of me wishes we never would've tied it into performance. Right now I'm worried about Northwestern. I'm not worried about who's wearing what practice jersey."
***Jean-Baptiste said the tendonitis in his knee felt much better than it did on Saturday, and he fully practiced on Monday. He said the injury would likely be something he dealt with for the rest of the year, but he didn't expect it to make him miss any more time.
"I felt way better than last week," Jean-Baptiste said. "Way better. It's coming around, so I should be good."
***Carl Pelini said Northwestern quarterback Dan Persa was one of the best quarterbacks in the Big Ten and would be a huge challenge for Nebraska's defense because of his decision making and mobility in the pocket.
"I think he's close to, if not the best quarterback we've faced this year," Pelini He can do it with his feet, makes great decisions, has a quick trigger, knows the offense, handles the ball very well, rides backs, really does a nice job with his fakes. I mean, he's the complete package. He's a difficult guy to defend, and we're going to have to do a great job and be very disciplined to stop him."
***Carl Pelini said NU could use a lot of what they did on defense in the Big 12 against Northwestern's spread offense, saying the Wildcats do a lot of the same things Big 12 teams ran last season. Obviously Northwestern has a few unique wrinkles to its offense, and Pelini credited the Wildcats for being one of the first teams to introduce the spread to college football.
***Jermarcus Hardrick said Nebraska couldn't "get caught drinking the Kool-Aid" following Saturday's big win over Michigan State. He said too many teams start feeling too good about themselves after emotional wins and then come out flat the following week. ...More... To continue reading this article you must be a member.

Congratulations class of 2012-2013
Submitted on May 13, 2013 at 8:03 AM
The forty-first annual commencement ceremony at Volunteer State Community College was held Saturday and it featured country music legend Larry Gatlin giving the commencement address and singing for the crowd. The Gatlin Brothers star encouraged the graduates to keep the accumulation of material objects in perspective.
"You young people are about to embark on a special journey," said Gatlin. "America is still the land of opportunity, so I encourage you to dream big. But don't spend all of your time trying to acquire stuff." Gatlin then performed a song he wrote for victims of an Oklahoma tornado called "I Can Build Another House."
Thousands of graduates, loved ones, friends and well-wishers filled the Pickel Field House for the ceremony. The 2012-2013 class has more than 1,200 graduates. Mariah Hughes of Gallatin was named the Outstanding Graduate for 2013. The pre-med major has a 4.0 GPA and has been lauded for being one of the most outstanding students in the Math and Science Division, in many years.
After the degrees were conferred, Vol State President, Dr. Jerry Faulkner, addressed the graduates one final time. "Our wish for you is for health, happiness, success and fulfillment in all that you do, and that you never forget your alma mater."
Volunteer State Community College has more than 70 programs of study and offers two-year degrees, certificates and paths to university transfer. Continuing Education and Workforce Development extends the college mission to the entire community.

A Colorado Springs woman has bruises on her face after a stranger punched her at her home in the Mountain Shadows area.
Anita Stevens says she pulled into her driveway on Ledgerock Ter. when she saw a man stumbling around a neighbor's house. She asked him what he was doing and he told her he was taking pictures of wildlife.
"I felt that he wasn't quite right, so I said, 'That's very nice,'" said Stevens. "I was kind to him,"
The stranger walked away and she pulled into her garage, but when she looked back, he was there.
"I looked back and saw him at the end of the car, I have very good intuition and it said don't get out of the car," she said.
She did get out of the car and as soon as she opened the door, he punched her in the face then left. She was able to get into her house and call police. She wants other people to learn from her experience.
"I want other women to know, young girls to know, do not roll down your window and talk to any strangers no matter how harmless they look," Stevens said.
Stevens says the man was carrying a hanger and says he was so big he could have done more damage.
Police say he's an older white man, 5 feet 11 inches, 170 pounds. He was wearing a blue hooded jacket and green pants.
Police did try to follow his footprints in the snow, but say he got into a car and drove away.
If you have any information about who the man is you can call Crime Stoppers at 634-STOP.

Psalter: Sunday, Week I, 660 (Midafternoon Reading)
Proper of Seasons: 532 (concluding prayer)
Midafternoon Prayer for Sunday using Complementary Psalmody
God, come to my assistance.
– Lord, make haste to help me.
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit:
– as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ever. Amen. Alleluia.
Christ Jesus lay in death's strong bands
For our offenses given;
But now at God's right hand He stands
And brings us life from heaven.
Therefore let us joyful be
And sing to God right thankfully
Loud songs of alleluia! Alleluia!
No son of man could conquer death,
Such ruin sin had wrought us.
No innocence was found on earth,
And therefore death had brought us
Into bondage from of old
And ever grew more strong and bold
And held us as its captive. Alleluia!
Christ Jesus, God's own Son, came down,
His people to deliver;
Destroying sin, He took the crown
From death's pale brow forever:
Stripped of pow'r, no more it reigns;
An empty form alone remains;
Its sting is lost forever. Alleluia!
It was a strange and dreadful strife
When life and death contended;
The victory remained with life,
The reign of death was ended.
Holy Scripture plainly saith
That death is swallowed up by death,
Its sting is lost forever. Alleluia!
Here our true Paschal Lamb we see,
Whom God so freely gave us;
He died on the accursèd tree —
So strong His love—to save us.
See, His blood now marks our door;
Faith points to it; death passes o'er,
And Satan cannot harm us. Alleluia!
So let us keep the festival
To which our Lord invites us;
Christ is Himself the joy of all,
The sun that warms and lights us.
Now His grace to us imparts
Eternal sunshine to our hearts;
The night of sin is ended. Alleluia!
Then let us feast this Easter Day
On Christ, the bread of heaven;
The Word of grace has purged away
The old and evil leaven.
Christ alone our souls will feed;
He is our meat and drink indeed;
Faith lives upon no other! Alleluia!
Christ Jesus Lay in Death's Strong Bands by Concordia Publishing House ; Words: Martin Luther, 1524. Music: Geistliche Gesangbüchlein, 1524.
Ant. 1 The Lord has done great things for us; he is the source of all our joy.
Psalm 126
Joyful hope in God
Companions with him in suffering, you will share his over-flowing happiness (2 Corinthians 1:7)
When the Lord delivered Zion from bondage,
it seemed like a dream.
Then was our mouth filled with laughter,
on our lips there were songs.
The heathens themselves said: "What marvels
the Lord worked for them!"
What marvels the Lord worked for us!
Indeed we were glad.
Deliver us, O Lord, from our bondage
as streams in dry land.
Those who are sowing in tears
will sing when they reap.
They go out, they go out, full of tears,
carrying seed for the sowing:
they come back, they come back, full of song,
carrying their sheaves
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit:
– as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ever. Amen.
Ant. The Lord has done great things for us; he is the source of all our joy.
Ant. 2 May the Lord build our house and watch over our city.
Psalm 127
Apart from God our labors are worthless
You are God's building (1 Corinthians 3:9)
If the Lord does not build the house,
in vain do its builders labor;
if the Lord does not watch over the city,
in vain does the watchman keep vigil.
In vain is your earlier rising,
your going later to rest,
you who toil for the bread you eat,
when he pours gifts on his beloved while they slumber.
Truly sons are a gift from the Lord,
a blessing, the fruit of the womb.
Indeed the sons of youth
are like arrows in the hand of a warrior.
O the happiness of the man
who has filled his quiver with these arrows!
He will have no cause for shame
when he disputes with his foes in the gateways.
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit:
– as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ever. Amen.
Ant. May the Lord build our house and watch over our city.
Ant. 3 Blessed are those who fear the Lord.
Psalm 128
Happiness of family life rooted in God
"May the Lord bless you from Zion," that is, from the Church (Arnobius)
O blessed are those who fear the Lord
and walk in his ways!
By the labor of your hands you shall eat.
You will be happy and prosper;
the wife like a fruitful vine
in the heart of your house;
Your children like shoots of the olive,
around your table.
Indeed thus shall be blessed
the man who fears the Lord.
May the Lord bless you from Zion
all the days of your life!
May you see your children's children
in a happy Jerusalem!
On Israel, peace!
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit:
– as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ever. Amen.
Ant. Blessed are those who fear the Lord.
READING Galatians 6:9-10
Let us not grow weary of doing good; if we do not relax our efforts, in due time we shall reap our harvest. While we have the opportunity, let us do good to all men – but especially those of the household of the faith.
Sacred Silence (indicated by a bell)
A moment to reflect and receive in our hearts the full resonance of the voice of the Holy Spirit and to unite our personal prayer more closely with the word of God and public voice of the Church.
From the depths of my heart I cry to you, Lord.
– I shall always do your will.
Grant us,
we pray, O Lord our God,
the constant gladness of being devoted to you,
for it is full and lasting happiness
to serve with constancy the author of all that is good.
Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, for ever and ever.
– Amen.
ACCLAMATION (only added when praying in community)
Let us praise the Lord.
– And give him thanks.

Spatial concepts in U.S. science teaching standards
|These listings of U.S. science content standards include 150 from three topic areas in the National Science Education Standards of 1996: B - Physical Science, C - Life Science, and D - Earth and Space Science.
|The 1994 U.S. National Geography Standards for grades 9-12 are included as well - browse the complete document here. New standards for 2011 are nearly complete, check out the Beta web site.
|teaching standard
|spatial concepts
Chemical reactions occur all around us, for example in health care, cooking, cosmetics, and automobiles. Complex chemical reactions involving carbon-based molecules take place constantly in every cell in our bodies. 179 B (9-12)
|cell, scale, surrounding
Chemical reactions may release or consume energy. Some reactions such as the burning of fossil fuels release large amounts of energy by losing heat and by emitting light. Light can initiate many chemical reactions such as photosynthesis and the evolution of urban smog. 179 B (9-12)
|emission, urban
A large number of important reactions involve the transfer of either electrons (oxidation/reduction reactions) or hydrogen ions (acid/base reactions) between reacting ions, molecules, or atoms. In other reactions, chemical bonds are broken by heat or light to form very reactive radicals with electrons ready to form new bonds. Radical reactions control many processes such as the presence of ozone and greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, burning and processing of fossil fuels, the formation of polymers, and explosions.
|atom, bond, formation, scale, transfer
Chemical reactions can take place in time periods ranging from the few femtoseconds (10**-15 seconds) required for an atom to move a fraction of a chemical bond distance to geologic time scales of billions of years. Reaction rates depend on how often the reacting atoms and molecules encounter one another, on the temperature, and on the properties--including shape--of the reacting species. 179 B (9-12)
|distance, encounter, motion, movement, scale
Catalysts, such as metal surfaces, accelerate chemical reactions. Chemical reactions in living systems are catalyzed by protein molecules called enzymes. 179 B (9-12)
|acceleration, adjacency, surface
|teaching standard
|spatial concepts
Objects change their motion only when a net force is applied. Laws of motion are used to calculate precisely the effects of forces on the motion of objects. The magnitude of the change in motion can be calculated using the relationship F=ma, which is independent of the nature of the force. Whenever one object exerts force on another, a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction is exerted on the first object. 179 B (9-12)
|direction, force, magnitude, motion, object, opposite
Gravitation is a universal force that each mass exerts on any other mass. The strength of the gravitational attractive force between two masses is proportional to the masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. 180 B (9-12)
|distance, force, gravity, mass, proportion
The electric force is a universal force that exists between any two charged objects. Opposite charges attract while like charges repel. The strength of the force is proportional to the charges, and, as with gravitation, inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. 180 B (9-12)
|attraction, distance, force, gravity, proportion, repulsion
Between any two charged particles, electric force is vastly greater than the gravitational force. Most observable forces such as those exerted by a coiled spring or friction may be traced to electric forces acting between atoms and molecules. 180 B (9-12)
|coil, force, fractals, friction, gravity, scale
Electricity and magnetism are two aspects of a single electromagnetic force. Moving electric charges produce magnetic forces, and moving magnets produce electric forces. These effects help students to understand electric motors and generators. 180 B (9-12)
|force, magnetism, motion, movement
|teaching standard
|spatial concepts
In most chemical and nuclear reactions, energy is transferred into or out of a system. Heat, light, mechanical motion, or electricity might all be involved in such transfers. 155 B (5-8)
|absorption, containment, emission, enter, exit, motion, transfer
The sun is a major source of energy for changes on the earth's surface. The sun loses energy by emitting light. A tiny fraction of that light reaches the earth, transferring energy from the sun to the earth. The sun's energy arrives as light with a range of wavelengths, consisting of visible light, infrared, and ultraviolet radiation. 155 B (5-8)

The great diversity of organisms is the result of more than 3.5 billion years of evolution that has filled every available niche with life forms. 185 C (9-12)
Natural selection and its evolutionary consequences provide a scientific explanation for the fossil record of ancient life forms, as well as for the striking molecular similarities observed among the diverse species of living organisms. 185 C (9-12)
|fossil, similarity
The millions of different species of plants, animals, and microorganisms that live on earth today are related by descent from common ancestors. 185 C (9-12)
Biological classifications are based on how organisms are related. Organisms are classified into a hierarchy of groups and subgroups based on similarities which reflect their evolutionary relationships. Species is the most fundamental unit of classification. 185 C (9-12)
|classification, group, hierarchy, similarity

The atoms and molecules on the earth cycle among the living and nonliving components of the biosphere. 186 C (9-12)
|atom, composition, cycle, interaction, molecule
Energy flows through ecosystems in one direction, from photosynthetic organisms to herbivores to carnivores and decomposers. 186 C (9-12)
|direction, flow
Organisms both cooperate and compete in ecosystems. The interrelationships and interdependencies of these organisms may generate ecosystems that are stable for hundreds or thousands of years. 186 C (9-12)
|ecosystem, environment, interrelationship, size, stability
Living organisms have the capacity to produce populations of infinite size, but environments and resources are finite. This fundamental tension has profound effects on the interactions between organisms. 186 C (9-12)
|environment, finite, infinite, size
Human beings live within the world's ecosystems. Increasingly, humans modify ecosystems as a result of population growth, technology, and consumption. Human destruction of habitats through direct harvesting, pollution, atmospheric changes, and other factors is threatening current global stability, and if not addressed, ecosystems will be irreversibly affected. 186 C (9-12)
|atmospheric, destruction, ecosystem, fractal, growth, habitat, scale, stability
|teaching standard
|spatial concepts
All matter tends toward more disorganized states. Living systems require a continuous input of energy to maintain their chemical and physical organizations. With death, and the cessation of energy input, living systems rapidly disintegrate. 186 C (9-12)
|disintegration, order, organization, site, state
|teaching standard
|spatial concepts
The characteristics of an organism can be described in terms of a combination of traits. Some traits are inherited and others result from interactions with the environment. 157 C (5-8)
|combination, environment, interaction
|teaching standard
|spatial concepts
All organisms must be able to obtain and use resources, grow, reproduce, and maintain stable internal conditions while living in a constantly changing external environment. 157 C (5-8)
|environment, external, grow, growth, internal, obtain
Regulation of an organism's internal environment involves sensing the internal environment and changing physiological activities to keep conditions within the range required to survive. 157 C (5-8)
|environment, internal
Behavior is one kind of response an organism can make to an internal or environmental stimulus. A behavioral response requires coordination and communication at many levels, including cells, organ systems, and whole organisms. Behavioral response is a set of actions determined in part by heredity and in part from experience. 157 C (5-8)
|communication, coordination, environment, hierarchy, internal, level, stimulation, stimulus
An organism's behavior evolves through adaptation to its environment. How a species moves, obtains food, reproduces, and responds to danger are based in the species' evolutionary history. 157 C (5-8)
|behavior, environment, motion, movement
|teaching standard
|spatial concepts
A population consists of all individuals of a species that occur together at a given place and time. All populations living together and the physical factors with which they interact compose an ecosystem.
|co-location, co-occurrence, composition, ecosystem, interaction, place, proximity, time
Populations of organisms can be categorized by the function they serve in an ecosystem. Plants and some micro-organisms are producers--they make their own food. All animals, including humans, are consumers, which obtain food by eating other organisms. Decomposers, primarily bacteria and fungi, are consumers that use waste materials and dead organisms for food. Food webs identify the relationships among producers, consumers, and decomposers in an ecosystem. 157 C (5-8)
|ecosystem, interaction, scale, web
For ecosystems, the major source of energy is sunlight. Energy entering ecosystems as sunlight is transferred by producers into chemical energy through photosynthesis. That energy then passes from organism to organism in food webs. 158 C (5-8)
|ecosystem, enter, exit, sunlight, transfer, web
The number of organisms an ecosystem can support depends on the resources available and abiotic factors, such as quantity of light and water, range of temperatures, and soil composition. Given adequate biotic and abiotic resources and no disease or predators, populations (including humans) increase at rapid rates. Lack of resources and other factors, such as predation and climate, limit the growth of populations in specific niches in the ecosystem. 158 C (5-8)
|availability, composition, ecosystem, growth, niche, quantity, range, rate
|teaching standard
|spatial concepts
Millions of species of animals, plants, and micro-organisms are alive today. Although different species might look dissimilar, the unity among organisms becomes apparent from an analysis of internal structures, the similarity of their chemical processes, and the evidence of common ancestry. 158 C (5-8)

The origin of the universe remains one of the greatest questions in science. The 'big bang' theory places the origin between 10 and 20 billion years ago, when the universe began in a hot dense state; according to this theory, the universe has been expanding ever since. 190 D (9-12)

Early in the history of the universe, matter, primarily the light atoms hydrogen and helium, clumped together by gravitational attraction to form countless trillions of stars. Billions of galaxies, each of which is a gravitationally bound cluster of billions of stars, now form most of the visible mass in the universe. 190 D (9-12)

Mew (Japanese: ミュウ Myuu) is a Psychic-type Mythical and Legendary Pokémon, and is the last Pokémon in the Kanto Pokédex. Unlike any other Pokémon, it has the ability to learn every TM and HM except Draco Meteor.
Mew does not evolve into or from any other Pokémon; however, its DNA was cloned to create Mewtwo. It was the last Pokémon in the Pokédex until Generation II was released.
Mew's appearance is that of a pink cat-like Pokémon with large feet, blue eyes, small pointed ears and a long, skinny tail. It is covered with a layer of fine pink hair, only visible with the aid of a microscope. It has short arms with three fingers on each paw.
Special abilities
Mew has the Ability Synchronize. This ability allows it to pass on any status problem, except Sleep and Frozen, to its opponent. This ability also raises the encounter rate of Pokémon with its same nature.
Additionally, it is said that Mew's DNA possesses the genetic composition of all existing Pokémon species, thus allowing it to use all known Pokémon techniques. Also, as shown in Lucario and the Mystery of Mew, it can change into any Pokémon using Transform. It changed into Meowth, Ho-Oh, Pidgeot, Pikachu, Aipom, Treecko, Taillow, Mime Jr., and Pichu.
Mew has also shown its ability to Levitate, create force fields, and change its form into any existing species of Pokémon. It is a very versatile and is arguably ONE of the most powerful Pokémon in every region.
In the anime
Mew has been featured in several Pokémon movies, having a large role in most of them. Mew first appeared in the movie Mewtwo Strikes Back or Pokémon the First Movie, and fought with Mewtwo.
Mew's second movie appearance was in Lucario and the Mystery of Mew, where Mew from the first movie takes Meowth and Ash's Pikachu to the Tree of Beginning. Mew has also made appearances in other movies.Mew has been shown several times though in the TV series anime. Mew is in the opening theme of the Pokémon anime series, and it was featured in the TV Movie special Mewtwo Returns, during a flashback sequence of Mewtwo's. In the episode A Lean, Mean, Team Rocket Machine, it appears in one of Meowth's boss fantasies, along with Celebi, Phione, Manaphy, and Jirachi. It appears as a mirage Pokémon in the special The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon.
In the manga
The first legendary Pokémon that Red saw was Mew; he tried to capture it, but due to his lack of experience he was unable to catch it. In the Emerald arc, Emerald used soil from Mew's birthplace to calm down all the rental Pokémon as Mew is believed to have the DNA of all Pokémon.

Super Smash Bros.
Mew has been a featured Pokémon in every one of the Super Smash Brothers games.
In original Super Smash Bros., a Mew will fly up without affecting the battlefield. In Super Smash Bros. Melee there is a 1 in 251 chance that a Poké Ball item contains Mew, and if this is the first time the player sees it, they will get an "achievement" after the battle. While it does not attack, the player receives 10,000 points after the battle is over. In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, it may even leave the player with a CD, a rare item that unlocks additional music in the game. Also, like in Melee, if it is the player's first time seeing Mew, they will get a "Notice" record from encountering him. This can be viewed later, along with the date and time the player received it.
Mew's name likely has to do with the onomatopoeia for a kitten's cry, referring to its cat-like appearance. However, some say that it is derived from the greek letter μ(pronounced mew). In some fonts they way it is written makes it look like a cat. It's also the 12 most powerful pokemon
- Mew was the very first Pokémon trademark ever to be applied for and registered, which may be the reason why it was made "the ancestor of all Pokémon."
- Although it can learn all moves, Mew can't learn powerful and rare moves such as Blast Burn, Judgment, and Freeze Shock, mainly because some moves are to be learned by a specific Pokémon, and Mew cannot learn them under a specific condition.
- Mew's gender has been a subject of debate for some time. Officially, Mew is neither; however, in various media such as the films and television series, Mew is described as mother. That it gave birth to Mewtwo (as described in the video game series) isn't in a literal sense. Mewtwo was created from Mew's DNA; thus, Mew could be considered Mewtwo's "parent." In PokéPark Wii: Pikachu's Adventure, it is referred to as a "he".
- It is one of only two Pokémon able to learn Transform, the other being Ditto. This also supports the fact that Mew is the ancestor of all Pokemon.
- Based on scales, Mew has the longest tail in relation to its own body. This does not include snakelike Pokémon such as Ekans, Arbok, and Seviper.
- Although having lower stats than Mewtwo, in the anime it is shown to be just as powerful, if not more powerful, than its clone counterpart. This is another example of Anime physics.
- In Japan, a pink Nintendo DS was released with Mew on it.
- In Pokémon Red, Blue and Yellow you cannot complete the PokéDex without doing the Mew Glitch.
- Mew was the first Pokémon introduced who is not legitimately obtainable in the main series. Celebi soon followed.
- Mew wasn't originally going to be an actual Pokémon; it was originally just a prank set up by the developers, and behind the creators' backs, no less. However, due to all the publicity it got, it became official.

Hypopituitarism is a condition in which the pituitary gland does not produce normal amounts of some or all of its hormones.
Pituitary insufficiency
The pituitary gland is a small structure that is located just below the brain. It is attached by a stalk to the hypothalamus. This is the area of the brain that controls the pituitary gland's function.
The hormones released by the pituitary gland (and their functions) are:
Watch this video about:Pituitary gland
In hypopituitarism, there is a lack of one or more pituitary hormones. Lack of a hormone leads to loss of function in the gland or organ the hormone controls. For example, lack of TSH leads to loss of normal function of the thyroid gland.
Hypopituitarism may be caused by:
Occasionally, hypopituitarism is due to uncommon immune system or metabolic diseases, such as:
Hypopituitarism is also a rare complication after pregnancy, a condition called Sheehan's syndrome.
Symptoms of hypopituitarism include any of the following:
Symptoms may develop slowly and may vary greatly, depending upon:
Other symptoms that may occur with this disease:
To diagnose hypopituitarism, there must be low hormone levels due to a problem with the pituitary gland. The diagnosis must also rule out diseases of the organ that is affected by this hormone.
Tests may include:
Levels of a pituitary hormone may be high in the bloodstream if you have a pituitary tumor that is producing too much of that hormone. The tumor may crush other cells of the pituitary, leading to low levels of other hormones.
If hypopituitarism is caused by a tumor, you may need surgery to remove the tumor. Radiation therapy may also be needed.
You will need lifelong hormone medicines to replace hormones that are no longer made by organs under the control of the pituitary gland. These may include:
Drugs are also available to treat related infertility in men and women.
Hypopituitarism is usually permanent. It requires lifelong treatment with one or more medicines. But you can expect a normal life span.
Side effects of medicines can develop. Stopping corticosteroid and thyroid supplementation can be life-threatening.
Call your health care provider if you develop symptoms of hypopituitarism.
In most cases, the disorder is not preventable. Awareness of risk may allow early diagnosis and treatment.

News 12 First at Five / Wednesday, Nov. 21, 2012
AUGUSTA, Ga. -- It's supposed to be a big honor. Paine College wants to name its new basketball court after a former head coach. But some say the so-called honor is a slap in the face.
Crews at Paine College are putting the final touches on the school's new gym, and we got our hands on this memo detailing plans to name the court after former Coach Ronnie Spry.
"I really don't believe this is the appropriate way to honor a man like this. Honor the maintenance man ... yes. But not Coach Spry," said Bob O'Neal, a Coach Spry supporter.
Local business leader O'Neal is slamming the apparent olive branch.
"You not just talking about a coach. You are talking about an institution. You are talking about an icon," he said.
Coach Spry scored 500 wins in his more than 30-year tenure with the Lions only to be placed on administrative leave and forced to abruptly resign almost a year ago.
O'Neal wasn't the only one sounding off.
"I think this is a slap in the face myself. The man is an icon. The man has changed my life as a man," said a former Paine College basketball player.
But it will come at a cost. Naming rights require monetary gifts. The college claims naming the court after Spry is very appropriate.
"Well, you know, the measurement of someone's legacy should not be tarnished with negativity but celebrated with what is happening," said Brandon Brown, VP of institutional advancement.
O'Neal has a final request.
"Do it big if you are going to do something. Don't offer an olive branch," he said.
The naming is scheduled for Friday, Jan. 4. Supporters of the coach say he has not decided if he will attend the ceremony.

Cartier Watches
The story of Cartier watches begins in 1847, when Louis-Francois Cartier took the reins of his master's workshop. After a move to their famous Paris location and further development of their signature design, Louis Cartier, grandson of Louis-Francois, invented the "mysterious clock." Due to a cunning illusion the hands seemed to float over the face of the clock. Innovation such as this has been the hallmark of Cartier watches ever since, and sets them apart in the design of luxury Swiss watches. The collection of Cartier watches that you'll find at Dexclusive.com has been handpicked for one-of-a-kind value. We carry the Cartier Santos, Pasha, and Cartier tank watches.

Three Members of Parliament were yesterday ordered out of the debating chamber and off the grounds for ignoring Deputy Speaker's directive not to switch on microphones before being allowed by the chair. The MPs are Tundu Lissu (Singida –West), Rev Peter Msigwa (Iringa- Urban) and Godbless Lema (Arusha –Urban).
It all started after The Chief Whip, State Minister in the Prime Minister's office, (Policy, Coordination and Parliamentary Affairs) William Lukuvi sought the Deputy Speaker's guidance regarding some statements contained in the shadow Home Affairs budget speech.
Lukuvi described the speech presented by the Home Affairs shadow minister Godless Lema as unacceptable and meant to instigate lawlessness in the country and therefore posing a danger to the country.
While Lukuvi was still explaining his misgivings over the speech, Rev Peter Msigwa switched on his microphone asking the speaker as to why the minister was taking so long in just seeking the deputy speaker's guidance. The deputy responded that he (Lukuvi) was on the right track.
The response did not satisfy some Chadema MPs, prompting Lissu to switch on his microphone expressing his dissatisfaction to the deputy speaker, who did not respond.
Then Lema stood up, switched on his microphone without deputy speaker's permit to raise the same complaints.
Ndugai asked them to sit down and respect parliamentary regulations as directed earlier.
"My colleagues, in the morning we agreed here that no one is supposed to switch on microphones without the Chair's permit. The three MPs have done so.
Please get out of the House in fact outside Parliamentary grounds," Ndugai ordered the three Chadema MPs who immediately complied.
The MPs were then escorted by Sergeant at-arms to the gates of the Parliamentary buildings.
Speaking outside the grounds, the Chadema MPs said their stand on what they were fighting for remained intact.
"We are fighting for the proper use of the Parliamentary Standing orders by the Deputy Speaker," Lema said.
Nyamagana MP Ezekiel Wenje was on Wednesday ordered out of the National Assembly for being 'disrespectful' to the chair, following a heated exchange with the House chairperson, Sylvester Mabumba.
Meanwhile, Ndugai yesterday blocked various policy questions from the MPs directed at the PM Mizengo Pinda.
The Deputy Speaker's move started just after the parliamentary Prayer when he picked a Parliamentary Standing Orders book warning MPs against asking questions that did not target policy issues or those of national interests.
He told them that he will not allow any question that involved statistics or research.
The MPs who were blocked by the Deputy speaker's directives include Kasulu Urban -NCCR-Mageuzi, Moses Machali who asked the PM as to when the government will allow teachers to withdraw their membership from the Tanzania Teachers Union.
The PM responded saying he believes TTU has its constitution which stipulates everything and it was through it that teachers can withdraw from being members.
Machali stood on a supplementary question, only to be interrupted several times by the deputy speaker who warned him: "Hon. Machali Machali this is the last warning," he said, but Pinda responded, repeating that TTU had its own constitution which (Pinda) didn't have.
When a special seats MP-Chadema, Regia Mtema questioned why 650,714,800/- were spent unwisely by public officers who were not supposed to have spent the money for purchase of furniture according to the Controller and Auditor
General, the deputy speaker again blocked the question, saying: "Hon Regia that question should not be directed to the PM."
TLP national chairman was also stopped from asking a supplementary question regarding number of political parties getting subsidies from the government and which have been audited by the CAG.
