God's laws, not gun laws, are only solution
February 16, 2013
Taking guns from law-abiding citizens is not going to stop people with no morals from killing others. Morals come from God's teaching. Our lawmakers have taken God's teaching and laws from us....
Who/What is the objective standard? It is God and His righteousness which Judges the earth. Where He has given direct revelation, we should heed it. And for the rest, we should use Scriptural principles for Wisdom and work out our faith "in fear and trembling" knowing that we only escape proper Justice through the Mercy of Jesus Christ.

Again, your questioning goes to the idea: Is God at man's level and subject to man's restrictions and wisdom between fellow men? Essentially, is He above or below the law?
Example: Is the writer of Downton Abbey guilty of murder when he/she kills off a main character?
What is Murder? Can God Murder? Is God a Murderer when He judges the wickedness of Sodom and Gomorrah and those that have unrepentantly rebelled against His authority?
If God directly uses human agents, does that make Him or them murderers?
Even without Gods' direct command: Is the man who gives a lethal injection to a convicted serial rapist guilty of Murder? Is the police officer a murderer when he kills a husband battering a woman? Is the soldier guilty of Murder for killing an opposing soldier and/or a child in cross-fire?

You frequently cite "objective standards" of morality and behavior which supposedly come from your scriptures, yet the scriptures are full of atrocities committed in the name of and by the Christian god. How can you distinguish between "good" mass murders and "bad" mass murders if the only standard is whether god wanted it or not?
If someone tells you that they killed a bunch of children and infants because their parents were evil, and your god told them to, how do you know they're not telling the truth? You can't say it's because your god just wouldn't do that. Your scriptures show quite clearly that he/she/it has done it with reckless abandon, and you can't presume to limit your god.
If you can't judge your god's behavior in the Bible, you can't judge it in the present. You've admitted that your almighty god is not likely to make you, a worthless sinner, privy to his eternal mysterious plans or allow you to judge his/her/its actions.

Go back a few chapters and see what the Moabites and Midianites did in their sin--including the women.
Unless you say that God does not have a place to Judge his creation of sin OR that somehow the Creator is at the created's level, then your examples are hollow.
But, my job is not to defend God and/or explain His every attribute. I am simply a beggar who found Forgiveness and Mercy through Christ and I share that with you (or anyone else who needs Hope).
God allows you the freedom of choice. I pray that your heart will be turned to God's mercy--like Balaam's heart was in those earlier chapters of Numbers.

I call bulls*** on this whole letter

If you look at the Midianite story, the Hebrew army initially spared women and children as spoils of war. But their god was not happy they had been so kind, and ordered the additional slaughter of the non-virgin women and boys.
All of this and more outrage was said to have been ORDERED or directly done by the Christian god. I don't see how you can make this a matter of free will when an almighty god is slaughtering and damning children, infants, and fetuses in the womb.
But I'm happy to watch you dance around it, if you like.

You are very good at seeing and telling half of a story...
The sinful, fallen nature of mankind had caused the Midianites and others to do deplorable acts. The Israelites were not always holy either.
Which begs the question: Is God Just and Justice a good thing?
How does one bring Justice, Righteousness, and Holiness out of fallen/despicable people while allowing them the freedom of choice OR should He simply destroy all mankind (and not even leave the remnant as with Noah)?

The letter writer said,
"Morals come from God's teaching."
- Like when the Christian god ordered the mass murder of the Midianites, including women and children, except allowed the soldiers to keep the virgins for themselves, (Numbers 31).
- Or when the Christian god ordered the mass murder of the Amalekites, including old men, women, children, infants and animals, (1st Samuel 15). This was revenge for an Amalekite attack FOUR HUNDRED YEARS before. (This is why the Middle East is such a mess.)
- Or when the Christian god salivated at dashing Samaria's little children to pieces and ripping open their pregnant women, (Hosea 13).
- Or when the Christian god played that little trick on Abraham to see if he would kill his son if he told him to.
The Bible teaches more blood lust, cruelty, and violence than most of us could imagine.
If the children of this god had had assault weapons, just imagine how well they could have done their god's will.

The show behind the show, Celebrities at the Mavericks- Lakers NBA playoff game
I must admit that I'm not the type to chase celebrities per se… And knowing that I was going to go to the Staples Center to cover the Dallas Mavericks-Los Angeles Lakers NBA playoff game. Let me just say that it is nothing like covering any game in Dallas. Entertainment royalty was everywhere!
Chef Gordon Ramsey and soccer star David Beckham, celebrating his 36th birthday.
Eddie Murphy being mysterious.
The evening would not be complete without seeing Lou Adler and Jack Nicholson (behind Mavericks coach Rick Carlisle).
I even got to chat with Seal for a bit as he let me use his Leica.
The highlight of the evening was when the "Kiss Cam" featured Will Ferrell and John C. Reilly, and both quit eating their hot dogs long enough to entertain the crowd.
Luckily for me, because of my profession, I got a front row seat.

Because this column appears in Mirror Moms, I sometimes feel compelled to teach a life lesson, as well as amuse the readers. So get out your pen and paper because you're not only going to want to learn something here, but you might want to use it for future blackmail opportunities.
What is stealing? Do you have to take an actual material good to quantify it as stealing?
Recently, I was in line at a local grocery store, waiting my turn, waiting long enough that I was able to grab a cooking magazine off a shelf and read it. I saw a really good recipe that I wanted, but when looking at the price of the magazine, I didn't want to pay over $7 for just one recipe.
Because I had my shopping list on me, I saw no problem in taking out said list, turning it over to the blank side, and copying the recipe, word-for-word, from the magazine.
The lady behind me saw what I was doing and just kind of smiled. If she was judging me, she only did it mentally.
When I told my wife, Ann Marie, the story she questioned whether or not that was stealing. I didn't think it was. What if I had just read it over and over to the point of memorizing it -- which I did once with a wonderful cheesesteak casserole recipe -- would that be stealing?
It wasn't stealing ... but what I am about to reveal to you now is probably more stealing than the above story, but again, I think I can defend myself.
When I was in eighth grade, a friend of mine dared me to take a record out of the Hills department store. It was a 45. ... Rod Stewart's "Do Ya Think I'm Sexy?" I was an idiot at the time, but I actually made it to the parking lot before I realized what was at stake.
I was the son of an Altoona policeman and the most strict, Catholic-Italian woman this side of the Mediterranean Sea. I also attended Our Lady of Mount Carmel where a good portion of the nuns there trained under Chuck Norris.
Maybe it was the fact that my dad owned a gun, maybe it was the threat of my mom's backhand, or a forearm to the throat by any of the nuns at Mount Carmel, but I took the 45 back. And let's be honest, if you're going to steal a Rod Stewart record, it should be "Hot Legs."
Was that stealing? I took it back, without getting caught, and put it back on the shelf. The material good was never taken out of circulation without payment. I think returning the item negates my immoral decision.
My wife -- who is so wholesome that she makes Laura Ingalls of "Little House on the Prairie" fame look like Lady Gaga -- believes they were both sins, both immoral actions. But how can I go by what she says when she doesn't have any experience doing the wrong thing at the wrong time?
So if you want to take any lesson from this story to maybe use for future reference for a child or a grandchild, please don't write it down. Try to memorize it. That way my wife won't have to question whether or not you did something wrong.

Too much Nutcracker? Try these alternative holiday dance shows
I wrote last week's post about one of the most beloved and most popular ballets. It was a long list of Nutcracker performances with a lot of opportunities to see the show in almost any city in the area, but let's be honest… sometimes you need a break from all of those rat kings. Don't get me wrong, I would gladly see The Nutcracker every year to get me in the spirit of the season, and remind me of my love of ballet and all things Christmas, as I watched the talented Clara in awe.
There are other holiday options though, that still show off the holiday spirit. Here are a few. Some were created with children in mind. Some are rated PG-13. Some tell the true meaning of Christmas while others just want to make you laugh.

LOCKPORT – A North Tonawanda sex offender was sentenced Friday to four years in prison and 10 years' post-release supervision for violating the terms of his probation by committing another sex crime.
Robert W. Miller, 37, of Oliver Street, was charged in December with having sexual contact with a 17-year-old boy. He pleaded guilty to sexual misconduct and was already in Niagara County Jail serving a sentence that was to have expired April 17.
County Judge Matthew J. Murphy III said he gave Miller a chance by placing him on probation in December 2009, after his guilty plea to first-degree sexual abuse for molesting a 14-year-old boy in North Tonawanda the previous year. He gave Miller another break by leaving him on probation after he was found to have viewed pornography in 2010.
"I'm not going to be made a fool of a third time," Murphy said.

EBENSBURG - If it seems like Bishop Carroll boys basketball coach Cosie Aliquo is never satisfied, it's probably because he rarely is.
Even when his team builds a 31-point lead and earns a blowout win in the state playoffs.
The Huskies were dominant in nearly every facet of Friday night's PIAA Class A first round game, though, as Bishop Carroll pounded Shanksville-Stonycreek, 58-32, at Central Cambria High School.
"You'll never hear me tell them they played well," Aliquo said. "No matter what, we still have a lot of things to work on."
The District 6 runner-up Huskies (22-5) shot 50 percent from the floor in every quarter and finished 25-of-50 for the game. The only blemish at the foul line was Marcus Lee's miss in the third quarter.
Maintaining their percentage through a second half that flirted with a rolling clock was remarkable, even for Aliquo.
"It was a pretty good shooting night," he said. "Yeah, we'll take it. I told our guys, 'Even though we're up 20, we've still got to get good shot selection.'"
Lee and Scott Ranck each scored 14 points for Bishop Carroll. Ranck scored 12 in the first half.
"We wanted to make their two big guys guard our two big guys, not down on the post, but away from the post and then attack the basket," Aliquo said of his leading scorers. "I thought both of them did really well tonight."
The Huskies had a 33-22 halftime lead, but they really put the pedal down out of the second-half gate.
Shanksville (21-5), the District 5 runner-up, ran a back-door play to open the third quarter, but missed the easy bucket.
Bishop Carroll's Brandon Martinazzi hit a 3-pointer, and four Vikings turnovers aided an 11-0 Huskies run.
Mitchell Madonna capped the spurt with a steal and layup to give Bishop Carroll a 20-point advantage.
"We came out of the locker room, ran the play, missed the oop, and that just kind of set the tone for the whole start of the third," Shanksville-Stonycreek coach Bob Snyder said. "We missed a couple of layups. Some of it was us, but give Carroll a lot of credit. They're a good team."
Shanksville didn't score in the third quarter until Jordan Wilt hit a free throw with 2:17 left.
It was also the Vikings' first trip to the line in the game.
"We wanted to be physical, but we just didn't make the right choices inside," Snyder said, whose team was just 14-of-40 (35 percent) from the floor and 1-for-10 in the third quarter.
Bishop Carroll forced Shanksville into 21 turnovers, mostly with its press defense rushing the Vikings' offense. The Huskies committed just eight turnovers.
"The one thing we wanted to do was pressure them," Aliquo said.
"That's too many. Our goal is under 10," Snyder said. "We didn't achieve that. We just had bad choices on our passes. Little things - we didn't come back to the ball."
Bishop Carroll advances to Tuesday's second round and will play District 7 champ Vincentian Academy (26-1).
Vincentian roughed up North Clarion, 82-47, on Friday night. Carroll defeated Vincentian, 83-81, at Vincentian in the regular season
But regardless of the Huskies' next task, which could be a daunting one, Aliquo certainly isn't lacking confidence with his team.
"In six years [of coaching], I was only into the second round [of states] the first year," Aliquo said. "I've never made it into the quarterfinals. This is the team that will get me there."
SHANKSVILLE-STONYCREEK (32): Slade 2-9 1-2 5, Jo. Wilt 2-10 1-2 6, Platt 3-6 0-0 6, Glessner 0-3 0-0 0, Fleegle 0-2 0-0 0, Gardner 2-3 0-0 4, Hudak 4-4 0-0 9, Duppstadt 0-1 0-0 0, Bittner 1-2 0-0 2, Ja. Wilt 0-0 0-0 0, Ferko 0-0 0-0 0, Evans 0-0 0-0 0. Totals 14-40 2-4 32.

Amazing Slippers Review by Amanda
Value Quality Price
I love these slippers for my toddler. We have owned 2 pair and will be getting more as his feet grow.Would you recommend this product to a friend? Without hesitation!
They are very warm and so comfortable for him to wear. They are also easy to take on/off. These slippers are also great for early walkers because they dont restrict the foot in any way. I have washed them and they still look brand new. I find that the toddler sizing tends to run small for us, so I order up one size.
I hope to eventually get a pair for myself . (Posted on 11/6/13)
Great for my newborn! Review by Lindsay
Price Value Quality
I received Padraigs as a gift for my newborn. I am pleasantly pleased with them! They really keep my little one's feet warm (and our house is cold in the fall and winter months). They actually stay on unlike so many shoes and boots designed for newborns. And they are surprisingly easy to get on. They also look really cute! I'm tempted to get some for myself in the adult size!

The best baby shoes! Review by Laura
Price Value Quality
I absolutely love these and would definitely recommend them to everyone! They are the only shoes my one year old has ever worn, and have kept her feet cozy all winter, and are still great for warmer weather. They are washable, so great for outdoor use once baby is crawling and walking. Definitely a must-have, and would be a wonderful, useful baby gift. (Posted on 4/26/12)

Perfect slippers for babies. They are super soft inside and durable on the outside and stay on squirmy toes! I will continue to buy these for my son as he grows. (Posted on 10/23/13)Would you recommend this product to a friend? Without hesitation!
Best slippers ever. Review by H-mom
Value Quality Price
Padraig slippers are the best. I received them as a gift in newborn size for my baby and he wore them every day! They were the only slippers that stayed on his feet and kept him warm. He's now on his third pair, as I keep buying them when he outgrows them. They are still the only shoe that'll stay on and they are super cozy and warm. Amazing quality and durability. They also look adorable and match everything. Even though these slippers may seem a little pricey, they're well worth it. (Posted on 11/6/13)Would you recommend this product to a friend?

The Qpid WCF client provides two bindings, each with support for Windows .NET transactions.
The AmqpBinding is suitable for communication between two WCF applications. By default it uses the WCF binary .NET XML encoder (BinaryMessageEncodingBindingElement) for efficient message transmission, but it can also use the text and Message Transmission Optimization Mechanism (MTOM) encoders. Here is a traditional service model sample program using the AmqpBinding. It assumes that the queue "hello_service_node" has been created and configured on the AMQP broker.
Example 4.1. Traditional service model "Hello world!" example
namespace Apache.Qpid.Documentation.HelloService { using System; using System.ServiceModel; using System.ServiceModel.Channels; using System.Threading; using Apache.Qpid.Channel; [ServiceContract] public interface IHelloService { [OperationContract(IsOneWay = true, Action = "*")] void SayHello(string greeting); } public class HelloService : IHelloService { private static int greetingCount; public static int GreetingCount { get { return greetingCount; } } public void SayHello(string greeting) { Console.WriteLine("Service received: " + greeting); greetingCount++; }
static void Main(string[] args) { try { AmqpBinding amqpBinding = new AmqpBinding(); amqpBinding.BrokerHost = "localhost"; amqpBinding.BrokerPort = 5672; ServiceHost serviceHost = new ServiceHost(typeof(HelloService)); serviceHost.AddServiceEndpoint(typeof(IHelloService), amqpBinding, "amqp:hello_service_node"); serviceHost.Open(); // Send the service a test greeting Uri amqpClientUri=new Uri("amqp:amq.direct?routingkey=hello_service_node"); EndpointAddress clientEndpoint = new EndpointAddress(amqpClientUri); ChannelFactory<IHelloService> channelFactory = new ChannelFactory<IHelloService>(amqpBinding, clientEndpoint); IHelloService clientProxy = channelFactory.CreateChannel(); clientProxy.SayHello("Greetings from WCF client"); // wait for service to process the greeting while (HelloService.GreetingCount == 0) { Thread.Sleep(100); } channelFactory.Close(); serviceHost.Close(); } catch (Exception e) { Console.WriteLine("Exception: {0}", e); } } } }
The second binding, AmqpBinaryBinding, is suitable for WCF applications that need to inter-operate with non-WCF clients or that wish to have direct access to the raw wire representation of the message body. It relies on a custom encoder to read and write raw (binary) content which operates similarly to the ByteStream encoder (introduced in .NET 4.0). The encoder presents an abstract XML infoset view of the raw message content on input. On output, the encoder does the reverse and peels away the XML infoset layer exposing the raw content to the wire representation of the message body. The application must do the inverse of what the encoder does to allow the XML infoset wrapper to cancel properly. This is demonstrated in the following sample code (using the channel programming model) which directly manipulates or provides callbacks to the WCF message readers and writers when the content is consumed. In contrast to the AmqpBinding sample where the simple greeting is encapsulated in a compressed SOAP envelope, the wire representation of the message contains the raw content and is identical and fully interoperable with the Qpid C++ "Hello world!" example.
Example 4.2. Binary "Hello world!" example using the channel model
namespace Apache.Qpid.Samples.Channel.HelloWorld { using System; using System.ServiceModel; using System.ServiceModel.Channels; using System.ServiceModel.Description; using System.Text; using System.Xml; using Apache.Qpid.Channel; public class HelloWorld { static void Main(string[] args) { String broker = "localhost"; int port = 5672; String target = "amq.topic"; String source = "my_topic_node"; if (args.Length > 0) { broker = args[0]; } if (args.Length > 1) { port = int.Parse(args[1]); } if (args.Length > 2) { target = args[2]; } if (args.Length > 3) { source = args[3]; } AmqpBinaryBinding binding = new AmqpBinaryBinding(); binding.BrokerHost = broker; binding.BrokerPort = port; IChannelFactory<IInputChannel> receiverFactory = binding.BuildChannelFactory<IInputChannel>(); receiverFactory.Open(); IInputChannel receiver = receiverFactory.CreateChannel(new EndpointAddress("amqp:" + source)); receiver.Open(); IChannelFactory<IOutputChannel> senderFactory = binding.BuildChannelFactory<IOutputChannel>(); senderFactory.Open(); IOutputChannel sender = senderFactory.CreateChannel(new EndpointAddress("amqp:" + target)); sender.Open(); sender.Send(Message.CreateMessage(MessageVersion.None, "", new HelloWorldBinaryBodyWriter())); Message message = receiver.Receive(); XmlDictionaryReader reader = message.GetReaderAtBodyContents(); while (!reader.HasValue) { reader.Read(); } byte[] binaryContent = reader.ReadContentAsBase64(); string text = Encoding.UTF8.GetString(binaryContent); Console.WriteLine(text); senderFactory.Close(); receiverFactory.Close(); } } public class HelloWorldBinaryBodyWriter : BodyWriter { public HelloWorldBinaryBodyWriter() : base (true) {} protected override void OnWriteBodyContents(XmlDictionaryWriter writer) { byte[] binaryContent = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes("Hello world!"); // wrap the content: writer.WriteStartElement("Binary"); writer.WriteBase64(binaryContent, 0, binaryContent.Length); } } }
Bindings define ChannelFactories and ChannelListeners associated with an AMQP Broker. WCF will frequently automatically create and manage the life cycle of a these and the resulting IChannel objects used in message transfer. The binding parameters that can be set are:
Table 4.1. WCF Binding Parameters
|The broker's server name. Currently the WCF channel only supports connections with a single broker. Failover to multiple brokers will be provided in the future.
|The port the broker is listening on.
|The number of messages to prefetch from the amqp broker before the application actually consumes them. Increasing this number can dramatically increase the read performance in some circumstances.
|Indicates if separate channels to the same broker can share an underlying AMQP tcp connection (provided they also share the same authentication credentials).
|Indicates whether the channel's encoder uses the WCF BufferManager cache to temporarily store message content during the encoding/decoding phase. For small to medium sized SOAP based messages, buffered is usually the preferred choice. For binary messages, streamed TransferMode is the more efficient mode.

Autoweek contributor J.P. Vettraino was recently invited to check out the 2014 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG. It's the third version of the E63 we've seen since the current generation E-Class debuted in 2010. It's also the first AMG product to feature all-wheel-drive. Of course, European customers will still be able to order an E63 with rear-wheel-drive, but that's another story.
Check out the video above and let us know if AWD is AOK with you, or if you'd prefer right-wheel-drive.

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Review
Skyrim is easily one of the strongest and best examples of the Western RPG, and it further establishes Bethesda's reputation as one of the most talented and creative forces in the gaming industry.
Because we at VideoGamer.com care about our audience, we'd like to offer anyone planning to play Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim a couple of pieces of advice. First off, if you have any long term commitments like say, a job or friends or a significant other, we suggest you ring them to make your excuses now - you don't want to get sacked or dumped over a video game, and letting your friends think you've died or been kidnapped due to lack of communication is just plain rude. Furthermore, it might be worth making sure that your gas and electricity bills have been paid, and that you have enough provisions to last you until spring. You're going to need time for Skyrim and lots of it.
To say Skyrim is vast is to make a chronic understatement. The sheer scale and size of the game's environment alone is absolutely mind-boggling and it's all augmented by a staggering amount of variety. Every town, every dungeon, every temple and every location has been created with a loving care and a fastidious attention to detail, and all of them boast a personality and an atmosphere of their own.
This level of range allows Skyrim to weave its first intoxicating spell of immersion. Players will soon stop seeing Skyrim as a game and become lost in its gargantuan landscape. They'll visit the cracked black-stone fortress of Windhelm, the blizzard-swept desolation of Winterholm, the sun-kissed settlement of Whiterun, and traverse rolling hills, snow-packed peaks and lush forests in between. Then they'll stare up at the clock and realise they could've finished off a couple of novels in the same time it took to do all that.
It isn't just the immense size of Tamriel as a place that gives it its ability to swallow lives whole. Bethesda has packed every inch of its game with content for the player to consume. Before the player is even allowed to begin exploring they're tasked with creating their character, and the levels of customisation on offer are so huge that the player could while away a couple of hours deciding on the exact look and feel of their avatar in the game. Skyrim also boasts over a hundred locations, a huge legion of characters and a lengthy list of quests to complete. The list of activities available is also pretty sumptuous; players can spend hours crafting weapons, mixing potions, enchanting items or simply reading the ton of books they'll find scattered throughout the game. Underneath it all there's a rather decent plot trundling along, involving a civil war in Skyrim, the return of some dragons believed to be extinct and the end of the world. You know, the usual epic fantasy stuff.
The player's role in this is as the last remaining Doväkiin, or Dragonborn to you. Not only does this set them up as the last hope of mankind, it also allows them to absorb the souls of any slain dragons. These in turn are used to unlock 'shouts', a list of abilities that range from lightning-quick movement, to a concussive blast that sends opponents flying, to the power to encase foes in a block of ice. Shouts have to be acquired and the player does this by seeking out runes etched into the walls of the many dungeons and subterranean caverns dotted around Skyrim. Each shout has three parts, becoming more powerful as more parts are found. It's worth spending the time to bolster up the Dragonborn abilities as they provide a much-needed edge in combat.
The rest of the combat system allows players to dual-wield weapons and magical attacks - provided of course, their weapon of choice doesn't require two hands to swing. Every successful attack earns XP which can be used to level up, and your character will also become more proficient in the types of weapons and magic they use the most in battle. When levelling up, the player is awarded a choice of topping up their health, magic or stamina, and is given a talent point they can use to unlock a perk in the talent tree of their choice.

I must admit to being confused about how to restore windows exchange 5.5
from BENT 7.3 with exchange agent. I've read information which says that
just restore and
reboot to use the eseutil and ipinteg utilities, to creating a secondary
exchange server and copy the various pub files.
What is the proper, best, and easiest way to restore exchange from BENT
tape backup. I can not find any definitive information. Any links to
processes are appreciated. I need your help because sooner or later I
will need to do it.

5 Astronauts More Badass Than Any Action Movie Hero
Please excuse the brevity of this article. A true list of everyone who was awesome in space should be everyone who ever went to space. Everything is cooler in space. It can even make the Facebook-angle self-shot awesome.
Aki Hoshide rendering Instagram obsolete.
Astronauts are head and shoulders above everybody, including Zeus, who lived on Mount Olympus because "on top of a mountain" was the highest people could imagine. When we worked out the actual mind-boggling distances to all those dots in the sky, we told our minds to quit boggling and start building rockets to take us there.
The Romans called one of their gods Saturn. We used the name for something more impressive.
As if traveling to space weren't dangerous enough -- what with the lack of gravity, the possibility of freezing or boiling to death, the exposure to radiation, the inability to breathe -- there are still those who managed to take space travel to a whole new level of badass ...
#5. Yuri Gagarin Invents, Defeats Extreme Sports
Remember that Felix Baumgartner guy who made global news because he parachuted out of space? Well, Yuri Gagarin did that 50 years ago in a rickety toboggan of a spacecraft with the floor panel missing. Since Garagarin was the first man to actually travel to outer space, he should be the first name anyone thinks of when making a list of space awesomeness. Or, for that matter, any other kind of awesomeness.
Keystone-France / Getty
Every time some jerk shouts "First!" restore your faith in the species by thinking of Yuri instead.
The space race was moving so fast that Yuri was launched before anybody had bothered to invent brakes. That's not hyperbole. But before you even get that far, consider this orbital courage-testing chamber: Three minutes after launch, a bottom panel drops away to unveil the Vzor orientation device (aka "Window in the floor of the friggin' capsule"). This was used to orient the ship with respect to the sun and horizon, and only accidentally meant that the first man into space could see all the way down below him the entire time. For any normal human, this window on the world would have been rendered immediately useless by a covering of fear-rhia.
USSR government
"It was fine. I like to see the things I'm defeating, like the entire world."
Yuri stayed conscious through 8 Gs of deceleration because he had to deal with the whole "no brakes" thing -- the re-entry plan of the first man in space being ... JUMP! The Vostok 3KA-3 capsule had parachutes, but its main stopping strategy was "There'll be a planet in the way," which is why a hatch opened and automatically ejected Yuri into the sky from the first manned craft to go shooting 7 kilometers straight up, instead of crashing to his death.
Siefkin DR at Wikimedia Commons
Either the Vostok re-entry capsule, or a reduced scale model of one of Yuri's balls.
He upstaged Felix Baumgartner (who got to choose when he felt like jumping) eight years before the latter was even born. Having pulled off the most badass stunt in human spaceflight history (on top of personally being all of human spaceflight history), he never even mentioned it for the good of the program. Most people can't keep quiet about eating a particularly good burger. It was a sign of insane Soviet secrecy that this detail was kept under wraps -- plus, he had already married the woman of his dreams. Meanwhile, the Russians thought the world would be more impressed by "he landed in the capsule" than "our hero personally jumped from a plunging spacebomb and is quite happy about it." Never mind nuclear missiles -- if we'd known that Soviet soldiers did that sort of thing, Red Dawn would have been the tale of obedient Americans learning how to prepare a good kasha and butterbrots breakfast for our beloved Soviet overlords.
As it turned out, the Federation Aeronautique Internationale (FAI) wouldn't recognize the record flight if the pilot didn't land in his craft. Listen, guys, if your records don't count Yuri Gagarin's achievements, then it's your records that don't count.
#4. Gordon Cooper Puts the "Man" in "Manual"
Gordon Cooper flew the last of the Mercury flights, a series of manned expeditions in which NASA took the most highly trained fighter pilots in the history of the world and reclassified them as human cargo, specially designing cargo-fitting space-pants.
Gordon Cooper personally hunted and skinned a Cyberman.
The Mercury capsules were created to see if humans could survive in space, and NASA didn't want these important spacecraft to be hindered by the very large lab rats inside.
Although the middle guy was nice enough to ask if John Glenn wanted fries with that.
The Mercury wasn't designed for pilot control, which became a bit of a problem when Gordon Cooper had to pilot one. All the instruments were automatic -- and also useless when Cooper's craft suffered a total electrical failure. Total. Everything. No guidance, no rocket control, not even the readings that told him which way the spacecraft was pointing. The only thing left was the radio, which was wired directly to the batteries, but since David Bowie wouldn't write "Space Oddity" for another six years, there wasn't even anything they could sing, let alone do.
Gordon Cooper, realizing that the universe is now trying to kill him, and glaring at it.
When Cooper realized that a building full of rocket scientists had become about as useful as a chocolate heat shield, he did it himself. Fellow astronaut John Glenn helped him work out a new procedure. Cooper calculated a spacecraft re-entry with fewer tools than you have access to right now -- because you have atmosphere, and the last thing Cooper's dead instruments told him was that the cabin was filling up with deadly carbon dioxide.
Whereas most of us might use our last minutes to tell everyone exactly what we thought of them (especially electricians), Cooper just got on with personally landing the spacecraft, using a plan that would have been considered too unrealistic for most movies. Consider the dilemma presented by Apollo 13, in which the crew had to jury-rig an air-filtration system out of spare parts, and then consider this: Gordon Cooper created an entire steering and re-entry mechanism. He made marks on the window to steer the spaceship by angling it against the stars, and took manual control of the boosters, physically leaning over, pushing and pulling the fuel valves, and timing the bursts with his wristwatch.
Regenc y Stamps
This has been used in more space calculations than HAL-9000.
During re-entry, the most stressful journey the human body can undertake, he had to manually fire the drogue chute, main parachute, and landing pad (every single step of which had only had two possible outcomes -- "perfect" or "pancake"). And what was his response to the world's most lethal math test?
"... that's really what we'd been wanting to do all along. So, it just gave me the opportunity to do what we'd been wanting to do."
When the test pilot astronaut had to personally take on the entire planet, his response was "Finally!" So when kids complain that they'll never use math in real life? Remind them that it's only true if they're planning on a life that sucks.
#3. Neil Armstrong Stops the Centrifuge of Death
As an astrological sign, Gemini truly encapsulates the duality of the human race. As a manned space mission, it's one of the most badass achievements in history.
Tell you what, let's both fly into space. We'll use our scientific data, and you can use your astrology charts.
David Scott and Neil Armstrong flew Gemini 8 to test what happens when you dock a Gemini capsule with an Agena target vehicle, but they ended up testing what happens when a Gemini tries to kill its crew. The result? Astronauts kick ass. The docked ships started spinning uncontrollably. Undocking only increased the rotation, proving that the problem was with the Gemini (and the laws of inertia). Their craft sped up until the entire universe was whipping past the windows once every second, giving "Hertz" a whole new meaning. Let's face it: When you've turned the sun into a strobe light, things have gone very badly.
Edward White made a spacewalk from Gemini 4. Technically unrelated, but just LOOK at that.
Everything was spinning wildly, and a false weight made it difficult to lift their heads from the seats, or even reach out their hands. The NASA report says that their "physiological limits seemed near," because "ohs#!tGONNADIE" is deeply unprofessional. Instead of blacking out, Neil Armstrong manually overrode the spaceship thruster system and fired the craft's re-entry motors, saving their lives. Doing so killed the Gemini 8 mission, but we can all agree that it was in self-defense.

One person was killed and two people seriously injured when their car hit a power pole this morning in Lewiston.
The identities of victims, all females under the age of 21, were not released pending notification of relatives.
State Police Lt. Kevin Barnas said the accident occurred about 6 a.m. on Walmore Road on the Tuscarora Reservation. The vehicle carrying the three victims was northbound on Walmore when it went off the east shoulder of the road and hit the power pole and flipped over several times, ejecting all three occupants, Barnas said.
One of the occupants was pronouced dead at the scene. The other two were airlifted to Erie County Medical Center, where one was listed in critical condition and the other listed as stable early today.
The accident was still being investigated by members of the State Police Reconstruction Team and the State Bureau of Criminal Investigation, who were still at the scene late this morning.

The thought alone of my kids driving someday makes me want to hyperventilate... Nascar driver? That's heart attack material. haha Looks like he had the time of his life. :)ReplyDelete
I told Jeff about Milo getting to go and we were watching and thinking about him the whole time! ...through the rain, reschedule, crash & fire. :) I love that he smiled the whole way through the adventure. :) And we do the SAME thing with the boys & exciting plans - we tell them NOTHING until we are DRIVING there. :)ReplyDelete
I am sure milo was in HEAVEN!ReplyDelete
man, how funny is it that your kid loves nascar. it's just hilarious considering we made/make fun of it often. but whatever. what a fun time for him!ReplyDelete
Those are some serious smiles from Milo! :) What a wonderful joy to indulge your kids in the things they love! I'm sure it'll be an amazing memory for him forever! Great job, mom and dad! :)ReplyDelete
he looks so happy!ReplyDelete
YAHOO! I'm so glad they got to watch the race. 2 NASCAR DAYS, Milo what a lucky young fellow!ReplyDelete
Oh he is just too cute!!ReplyDelete
So cute. He looks so pumped in all the pics! Haha!ReplyDelete
I was thinking about you guys the whole time I was watching that crazy race unfold!ReplyDelete
His smile is infectious, what a cutie!! My dad is going to his first nascar race this weekend (he's 60)...i'm pretty sure regardless of if they are 8, 20, 50, or 100....it's always the best. :)ReplyDelete
So fun and what a great memory to have!!!! I love it!ReplyDelete
although they ran into some road blocks, im sure it was the most perfect experience in the world for Milo. What a special experience. My oldest is obsessed with Titanic in the way that Milo is with nascar...can't go visit Titanic!ReplyDelete
Looks like he had a blast. My, almost 4 year old, watched that race...his first Nascar...on TV with me. He is totally into cars and keeps telling me he wants to drive...I'm praying for the pit crew. Is that bad? Ha!ReplyDelete
In all of the posts that I've followed (and there have been a lot), I have never seen Milo smile THIS much!!! Seriously, we all live to make our kid that happy.ReplyDelete
Yay for Milo!! Such a cute story with pics!! Crossing my fingers for ya this is just a stage!! Mr Anderson gets "Best Dad of the Year" award for this one! & thanks for the heads up about sharing exciting news with your kid!!ReplyDelete
I swear he and Eli could be best friends. Eli goes to the Atlanta race every year with us. Send Milo up for a race weekend in September. He can hang with us anytime! :)ReplyDelete
That is SO cute! Definitely a memory he'll always treasure. :DReplyDelete

Edible Sweet Art is a line of sugar dough modeling kits that let kids create different dough figurines and then eat them. No baking is required because the dough is already made and ready to be modeled and eaten. The kits are available in a variety of themes, including Ice Cream Maker.
The Ice Cream Maker kit includes five packs of sugar dough in assorted colors, corn flour, a rolling pin, a brush, the ice cream machine, two ice cream cups, six paper cones, an ice cream stand, and instructions. Before you start playing, you'll want to have two bowls, one with corn flour and one with cold water, near your workspace. The corn flour will help keep your dough from getting sticky, and the water will work as a "glue" for sticking together different dough creations.
The dough might be a little dry and hard when you first take it out of the package. Knead the dough until it softens. You can use the rolling pin to make it nice and smooth, or just roll the dough into a ball in your hand. Before you put any colored dough into the ice cream machine, mix it with some of the soft white dough. Then place your dough into the ice cream machine, put the plunger on top of the dough, insert the shape slide to choose a shape for your dough, and press down on the machine's handle to push the dough down into your ice cream container. Pull out on the pink lever to cut the dough. Decorate your dough ice cream by making sprinkles and cherries with other colors of dough and using water to stick them together. Then kids can eat their creations.
With the Edible Sweet Art Ice Cream Maker, it's okay for kids to play with their food. Modeling the dough engages kids in creative play, and the set also encourages roleplay as kids use the kit to serve up ice cream treats at their pretend ice cream shop. But what's not pretend is the eating part of the play, and kids will love being able to actually eat the sweet treats they create.
The Edible Sweet Art Ice Cream Maker is for ages 6 and up.
The sugar dough in this kit contains fish gelatin and sulphites.
The colored dough is very sweet. The white dough is not very tasty. You'll definitely want to combine the white dough and colored doughs per the instructions to balance out the flavor.
There are two sheets of instructions that come with this kit, and they are a little vague and not very well organized. In terms of pushing the dough through the ice cream machine, you'll need to use a bit of force.
Additional Edible Sweet Art kits are available and sold separately.

This is in response to Sandy Evans Hall's My Turn (Nov. 1, 2012) "Putting a stop to the rumor mill."
In regard to the Tahoe City Visioning Options, one need not "hear" a rumor of what has been proposed, as it is all quite visible on the "charrette" that was drawn by Design Workshop, to which the Tahoe City PUD and other entities granted thousands of dollars.
Really, since when does a public entity pay for designs to private property? If one has followed the process of the TRPA Regional Plan Update, the Placer County Community Plan Update, and now the Tahoe City Visioning Process, it's no wonder there is a lot of talk around town - people are upset!
The following is a statement from the North Lake Tahoe Resort Association's commitment to stewardship, "The essential qualities of clean water, fresh air, scenic beauty, open space, abundant plant and animal life, and opportunities for public recreation are elements that attract residents and visitors to the region. Maintaining and enhancing these qualities and assuring access to them is of primary importance for our economic and environmental health and well-being."
I highly agree with this philosophy, yet I don't see where it fits into the new "vision" which could equate to far too much development - hence taking away all the things we love about Lake Tahoe.
The future of Tahoe City relies upon restoration and sustainability both environmentally and economically. A little revitalization of town would go a long way, big development will not.

The ill will from a divorce and custody battle between Kelly Rutherford and her husband has now apparently reached into the hospital delivery room.
The Gossip Girl star welcomed her second child, daughter Helena, on Monday, but the actress's estranged husband, German entrepreneur Daniel Giersch, tells PEOPLE he was never notified of the birth, and instead read about it in online reports, some unfavorable toward him.
"Media reports claiming that I neglected to attend my daughter's birth are total lies and fabrication," Giersch says in a statement. "I was never informed by Kelly about the birth of our daughter, nor was I invited to attend. In fact, I found out about it through Internet reports like everyone else. Although this sickens me, I am of course overjoyed that our baby was born healthy. I would've wanted nothing more than to hold our newborn daughter for a few moments, and I only seek to coparent both our children responsibly and with love."
Giersch says he had a verbal agreement with Rutherford that she would notify him by phone or text message of her labor, hospitalization, and the child's birth – which he alleges never happened.
According to Rutherford's publicist Jill Fritzo, "The doctors advised that no one be in the birthing room; [Daniel] was notified when [Helena] was born and was immediately invited to come see her."
Rutherford, 40, and Giersch, 34, are currently mired in a custody dispute over their 2-year-old son, Hermes.

Seems the status quo in Detroit is that us fans really hate change. If our team is not winning (buying) championships, we are awful quick to throw in the towel during the franchises' refocus period. Think about the superstores vs small business. Think of the pre lockout era Wings in relation to Meijer/Walmart. These mega stores kill any chance of small business thriving in the surrounding areas. What the league has done is regulate the amount of spending in regards to team salary. This way, no matter where the team is located, they all have equal opportunity due to adequate business strategy, to succeed in the NHL. This League is not just 4 or 5 teams at the top winning every year anymore. Its an equal opportunities market. For the league's sake, they had to lower the top in order to raise the bottom. It helps to try to generate even income for all franchises, so that even in the small markets, the small fan followings that they do have can continue to stick around with hope that their team can win it all. After all, this is a business. Look at what happened to the city of Detroit. The big fish (auto industry) was the only source of economy because the little fish couldn't stand up against the big fish. When the big fish died out, or expanded/relocated to other major cities, the entire city of Detroit ended up in the s***ter. This is what would've happened if the league would've continued its pre lockout course of action. What Illitch and Co. used to do was buy their way to the top. Now, since that strategy has been almost eliminated, They seem to be restructuring the way they go about the present and the future. They are stocking up on young prospects and building almost entirely within. However, this comes at the cost of a few present years. The future is bright, the Red Wings will be at the top once again. It doesn't happen over night anymore and our fans just cannot seem to grasp this concept at all. The league is changing for the better, and whether or not us fans realize this, change is going to continue to occur. I think this downtime has really exposed our bandwagon fans. It seems as though the majority of "the best fans in the league" are not really hockey fans at all. When our team is not winning, we blame the league, the commissioner, the refs. Detroit fans only appreciate winning through absurd spending and monopolizing the sport whereas a true hockey fan enjoys, accepts, and appreciates the game of hockey no matter the circumstances. (See Toronto, or any Canadian club for example) No matter how awful the team is, their still selling out games due to love of the sport. Americans, Red Wings fans are greedy..

A British-based firm, Camelot Global Services, says it can provide more than $34 billion in profits over 20 years if it wins the right to manage the Pennsylvania Lottery.
The firm, which runs the national lottery in the United Kingdom, would need to generate a profit 3 to 4 percent greater than it currently generates to meet its projections.
So, according to Dave Fillman, executive director of AFSCME Council 13, "There is no good reason to dismantle the lottery."
Well, for starters, how about getting the state government out of a major arm of the gambling business while generating even more funds for programs that benefit the elderly in Pennsylvania? While the lottery has been successful, we wonder whether gambling is considered a responsibility of state government.
Pennsylvania state government already staring at mounting pension debt needs to reduce the number of people who will be owed pensions in the future.
That's especially true when the people eliminated won't be losing jobs. Should Camelot win the contract, the number of state employees connected to the lottery would be reduced from 230 to 70, but the rest would be able to interview with Camelot.
We would think they would be well qualified to work for Camelot.
The issue isn't jobs, it's public union jobs.
But the state government's responsibility is to provide the most benefits and services for its people in the most efficient, frugal way possible. If privatizing the lottery meets that criteria, it's the correct thing to do.

I must have had too many cups of coffee when I agreed to take on a Cinematical Seven covering the hunks of sports films. (Erik had the easy job, picking the Hottest Sports Girls.) Trying to pick the studs is like having hundreds of 4-star, wonderful movies thrown on your desk and being asked to pick the 7 best. Yeah, right! No problem! To make the task easier, I decided to pick a range of sports, and never double up on one particular type. That cut out a whole slew of possibilities, and what I came up with is what you see below.
What have I learned from picking the Seven Sexy Sporting Studs from cinema? The best of the best (pun intended) were in the '80s and '90s. I also learned that you should never share the list with a friend beforehand -- they'll remind you who you're forgetting, and that's why you'll find one tie down below. Enjoy!
The Eight Men Out Team
The only thing I knew when I took on this assignment was that Eight Men Out was going to be featured. Bull Durham is great and all, but this is the baseball movie. It's John Sayles, and it has the best baseball team to ever make it on the screen. They might have let their morals loosen a little, but they still kept their looks. Foolishly, I tried to pick between John Cusack, Charlie Sheen, D.B. Sweeney, and David Strathairn. Forget that! I'm taking the easy way out. Cusack's Buck Weaver was super cute as a "future jailbird," Charlie was always tasty in those days, and it's beyond me why women weren't falling all over David Strathairn the minute he jumped into film with Return of the Secaucus Seven, or any of the bigger movies that were soon to come. And Sweeney was cute, too, in that dorky way. span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"> C. Thomas Howell and Peter Horton in Side Out
Being my dad's daughter, in the early '90s I was a huge fan of both volleyball and C. Thomas Howell. Combining them both in Side Out was just great, even if the movie doesn't get a lot of love from the masses. As far as hunky men go, you can't get much better than the sun beating down on tanned, muscular men diving into the sand for volleyballs. The fact that Howell's Monroe was a law student with smarts, well, that just made the whole thing irresistible. Topping it off with real lookers and talent from the sport at the time -- my dear Randy Stoklos and Sinjin Smith -- made it all even better.
Jared Leto -- Prefontaine
While Jared Leto's stint as Steve Prefontaine might have been overshadowed by Billy Crudup's later portrayal (bah!), Prefontaine was both an example of hot running, and the opportunity to show the world that he was more than just Jordan Catalano. It is the story of a life cut short, and Jared pulled it off with class as well as tongue-wagging good looks. Should you consider underground fight clubs a sport as well, you might go for him in Fight Club, but that guy got ugly, so I'd stick with Pre.
Dennis Quaid -- Breaking Away
No, not The Rookie. You can't do better than great eye candy in a sporting Oscar winner. I'm sort of cheating here, since Quaid's character was a football star (and there's more pigskin yet to come), but since this is mainly a cycling movie, I'm leaving it. Why? I could say it's because the Super Bowl is only a few days away, but no. It's because of the swimming hole. Oh man, that swimming hole. There's never been a wonderfully fleshier swimming hole before or since.
Jean Claude Van Damme -- Kickboxer -vs- Eric Roberts -- Best of the Best
I was all set to gush about Van Damme's Kickboxer, and then my friend gently reminded me that I was forgetting my dear Eric. On the one hand, you have the muscley, scantily-clad man whose thighs could bend a Thighsizer. On the other hand, you have Eric Roberts, who was yummy in this film, and has a lot more acting talent. So really, which martial arts movie you pick depends on what you're in the mood for. Do you want Jean Claude's earnest revenge? Or, some gravelly-voiced hotness? Huge muscles that can't fit into shirts properly? Smaller, but still darned wonderful muscles? How about both?
Will Smith -- Ali
It's not surprising that many women love Will Smith. He's cute, talented, dedicated to his wife and family, and he looks to be pretty stable, which is very rare in the world of big-name celebrities. Of course, this makes Ali the perfect sporting choice for this list -- as a boxer, there's lots of toplessness and sweaty, glistening pecs. However, I have a confession to make. It should be obvious by now that I've got some unique tastes, and I really only included him so that I could mention the man I prefer -- Joe Morton. (He's a lawyer in the film, so I figure he doesn't count...) Readers, you can take Cassius, and I'll take Chauncey.
Craig Sheffer -- The Program
Last, but certainly not least, there's my football pick. The Program is far from the best movie, but it's got my favorite teen actor from the '80s, Craig Sheffer, and a little Omar Epps topping things off. (Or Larry Kubiac if you like the husky men.) Ah, Joe Kane. Sure, he's got some drinking problems, but he's a talented quarterback who is trying to do good rise above. And besides, he's in shape, and he's got those chiseled lips, thick hair, and serious bedroom eyes.
Now, my original list had 20-some men on it, so here are a few of my honorable mentions: Jimmy Tsai in Ping Pong Playa, Rob Lowe in Youngblood, Paul Newman in The Hustler, Tim Robbins/Kevin Costner in Bull Durham, Ryan Gosling in Remember the Titans, Warren Beatty in Heaven Can Wait, Paul Gross in Aspen Extreme, Leonardo DiCaprio in The Basketball Diaries, Matthew McConaughey and Adrien Brody in Angels in the Outfield, Jonathan Rhys Meyers in Bend it Like Beckham, and last, but certainly not least, Richard Joseph Paul in Under the Boardwalk. Yes, I'm serious about the last one.
