Nottingham Forest striker Dexter Blackstock will require surgery on his knee and faces a long spell on the sidelines.
The 24-year-old suffered suspected cruciate ligament damage in the closing stages of the npower Championship victory at Cardiff on Saturday.
"It doesn't look good," Forest manager Billy Davies told the club's official website, www.nottinghamforest.co.uk. "We sent Dexter to see some specialists. We're still waiting on some scans and reports but what we do know is that a hell of a lot of damage has been done.
"It certainly will be a lengthy period that Dexter will be missing. It certainly looks like he will have to have more than one operation."

Nostradamus: Prophet of God or Messenger of Satan? Part 1

The following is an updated, expanded version of an article that I originally wrote over twelve years ago in the Spring of 1997. I trust that it will be a blessing to my brothers and sisters in the faith.
Many people today are familiar with the writings -- commonly known as the "Quatrains" -- of the noted sixteenth century French physician, Nostradamus. Michel Nostradamus, who some people view as a psychic, lived during the dangerous time of the Inquisition. This was a dark period in European history during which time the Roman Catholic Church resorted to every means possible -- including horrible practices of torture -- in order to exorcise the demons from those people who refused to embrace Roman Catholicism as the so-called one true faith, and the only religion ordained by, blessed by, and recognized by God. It was because of these conditions that Nostradamus shrouded his Quatrains in deep symbolism; thus making them just as mysterious and esoteric as the Revelation of Saint John the Divine.
According to what I have read, Michel Nostradamus was heavily involved with the occult, including astrology, as well as the theosophy of the Kabbalah. It has also been said that he took mind-enhancing drugs, for the explicit purpose of heightening his ability to make intimate contact with the spirit world. It is this contact which is claimed to have resulted in what are said to be prophetic dreams and visions concerning the future. Originally written in French, the Quatrains, as well as various interpretations of their meanings, have now been translated into a variety of languages. Likewise, movies and videos have been made regarding Nostradamus' work. As of this current writing, the most highly acclaimed books which have been published regarding the interpretations of the Quatrains, is a series written by New Age author, Dolores Cannon. Using various so-called "channelers", who allegedly made contact with the spirit of Nostradamus, as well as with some of his contemporary associates, Dolores Cannon produced the series "Conversations With Nostradamus", which supposedly contains the proper interpretations of the Quatrains.
Being deeply interested in Endtime and futuristic events, I took the time to read some of the original Quatrains, as well as various summaries of, and excerpts from, Cannon's "Conversations With Nostradamus". While I find Nostradamus' predictions interesting and quite intriguing, I must also confess that I have a few reservations which are difficult for me to simply ignore or dismiss. For the record, allow me to state that this impression was formed, not so much from reading an English translation of the Quatrains, as it was from the interpretations which were provided by Cannon and others. If one were to go by these alone, it would appear that Michel Nostradamus was a false prophet. The problem as I see it, is that we don't have the man here today to tell us exactly what he meant by his Quatrains. All we have are the interpretations of those who have tried to understand them, and they vary widely in their opinions. In fact, some time ago, there was a rumor floating around on the Internet whereby certain people were crediting Michel Nostradamus with having predicted 9/11 in one of his Quatrains.
So, as I was saying, being as we don't have Nostradamus here with us today in order to explain his writings more clearly to us, calling him a false prophet may be unjustified, and perhaps even a bit premature. I am sure that you will agree with me when I say that accusing a person of something based upon second-hand knowledge, or someone else's understanding of their work, is not really a fair practice.
While Michel Nostradamus did credit God for his prophetic ability -- and I've read where he is said to have relied in part upon the Holy Scriptures in order to better understand his visions -- nevertheless, I have also noticed that at the same time, in several places in his letters, he refers to "the gods", instead of to the one true God. While one may argue that the plural of the Hebrew "el", that is, "elohim", is used in the Old Testament when referring to God, the fact that Nostradamus would write "the gods", does make me wonder if perhaps he didn't find himself caught in a dilemma when it came to his personal beliefs. In other words, I question whether he was trying to maintain a balance in his faith in the one true God, but without really forsaking the works of darkness in which he had become involved; that is to say, witchcraft, drugs, the Kabbalah, etc. The Scriptures make it very clear that the Children of Light cannot be involved in the works of darkness. In fact, the Bible advises us to flee from them. Consider the following example verses:
"Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?"
2 Corinthians 6:14, KJV
"Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!"
Isaiah 5:20, KJV
"The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light."
Romans 13:12, KJV
"For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light . . . And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them."
Ephesians 5:8, 11, KJV
"Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you."
James 4:7, KJV
"Neither give place to the devil."
Ephesians 4:27, KJV
"And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved."
John 3:19-20, KJV
"Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:"
Colossians 1:13, KJV
"But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief. Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness."
1 Thessalonians 5:4-5, KJV
"But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:"
1 Peter 2:9, KJV
"If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:"
1 John 1:6, KJV
The Bible also strongly advises us against becoming involved in witchcraft and divination; which is basically what Michel Nostradamus was doing when he stared into a bowl of water he would place upon a three-legged stool, in order to allegedly concentrate his visionary powers. Is this not what fortune tellers do when they gaze into their crystal balls in order to supposedly divine the future? Again, following are some example verses for your consideration:
"Regard not them that have familiar spirits, neither seek after wizards, to be defiled by them: I am the LORD your God."
Leviticus 19:31, KJV
"And the soul that turneth after such as have familiar spirits, and after wizards, to go a whoring after them, I will even set my face against that soul, and will cut him off from among his people."
Leviticus 20:6, KJV
"There shall not be found among you any one that maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that useth divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch, Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer."
Deuteronomy 18:10-11, KJV
"And he caused his children to pass through the fire in the valley of the son of Hinnom: also he observed times, and used enchantments, and used witchcraft, and dealt with a familiar spirit, and with wizards: he wrought much evil in the sight of the LORD, to provoke him to anger."
2 Chronicles 33:6, KJV
"Moreover the workers with familiar spirits, and the wizards, and the images, and the idols, and all the abominations that were spied in the land of Judah and in Jerusalem, did Josiah put away, that he might perform the words of the law which were written in the book that Hilkiah the priest found in the house of the LORD."
2 Kings 23:24, KJV
"And when they shall say unto you, Seek unto them that have familiar spirits, and unto wizards that peep, and that mutter: should not a people seek unto their God? for the living to the dead?"
Isaiah 8:19, KJV
"And the spirit of Egypt shall fail in the midst thereof; and I will destroy the counsel thereof: and they shall seek to the idols, and to the charmers, and to them that have familiar spirits, and to the wizards."
Isaiah 19:3, KJV
"But these two things shall come to thee in a moment in one day, the loss of children, and widowhood: they shall come upon thee in their perfection for the multitude of thy sorceries, and for the great abundance of thine enchantments . . . Stand now with thine enchantments, and with the multitude of thy sorceries, wherein thou hast laboured from thy youth; if so be thou shalt be able to profit, if so be thou mayest prevail. Thou art wearied in the multitude of thy counsels. Let now the astrologers, the stargazers, the monthly prognosticators, stand up, and save thee from these things that shall come upon thee."
Isaiah 47:9, 12-13, KJV
"Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God."
Galatians 5:19-21, KJV
So as you can plainly see, the Lord is very much against his children becoming involved in witchcraft, divination, sorcery and other works of darkness, and there is clearly no place for them in the coming Kingdom of God either, because they are an abomination to Him.
As I was saying, I find these facts concerning Nostradamus rather disturbing, as there is no mention in the Bible of the Prophets of old having to rely upon any kind of outside catalyst or stimulus in order to receive their visions and prophecies. They usually say "I was in the spirit" or "I was caught up in the spirit", or they use similarly descriptive words. Exactly how the Prophets achieved this elevated state, we honestly don't know, but I seriously doubt that they took drugs, or stared into a bowl of water as Nostradamus is said to have done. My opinion is that if a person relies upon any means, other than being overcome by the Spirit of God, then at the very least, we should investigate the source of their visions and prophecies, regardless of how accurate or factual they may prove to be. Let us not forget that Satan is a liar and a deceiver. The Bible also refers to him as a false angel of light. He is also well-versed in both the Bible and the future of the world; so it would be quite easy for him to pass on such knowledge to one of his servants. Consider the following verses:
". . . He [Satan] was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it."
John 8:44, KJV
"For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works."
2 Corinthians 11:13-15, KJV
Because of these questionable factors which are associated with Michel Nostradamus, I advise my readers to maintain a degree of caution, should they decide to actually read any of his works. How much more should this apply to any New Age interpretations of his Quatrains? Jesus' warnings regarding false prophets and false messiahs, that are found in Matthew twenty-four, as well as other warnings regarding Endtime deception that are found in the New Testament, should all be taken very seriously. Again, allow me to share the following verses with you for your prayerful consideration:
"Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;"
1 Timothy 4:1, KJV
"For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;"
2 Timothy 4:3, KJV
"For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect."
Matthew 24:24, KJV
"That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:"
Ephesians 4:14-15, KJV
"Be not carried about with divers and strange doctrines. For it is a good thing that the heart be established with grace; not with meats, which have not profited them that have been occupied therein."
Hebrews 13:9, KJV
Another point that's also disturbed me for quite some time, is the clear absence of any mention of the Second Coming of Christ in the predictions of Nostradamus. Perhaps he does mention it somewhere in his Quatrains, but there is no such mention of the Second Coming in the interpretations of his work which I have read. If they are accurate interpretations -- and there is obviously room for doubt -- then it leads me to personally conclude that the predictions of Nostradamus are closely aligned with New Age beliefs.
As I point out in other articles and series, New Age beliefs tend to discuss soon-coming cataclysmic changes to the Earth, and to the people of Earth, which will be followed by a new Golden Age of peace. We are given the impression by the New Age interpretation of the Quatrains of Nostradamus that, just as humanity has brought the coming cataclysms upon ourselves through our own foolishness, in the same manner, through our own good works, and spiritual evolution, or "ascension" to a higher spiritual vibration, as some New Agers refer to it, we will be able to rectify our wrongs, and usher in the Golden Age. It is very much a humanistic approach to our problems, just as I describe in the series "John Lennon's Imagine And Secular Humanism". Of course, certain New Agers also insist that we will receive some assistance from our alien "Space Brothers", who according to them, are even now intervening in the affairs of humankind from behind the scenes.
This entire concept seems contrary to the Scriptures, which clearly state that it is only Christ's Second Coming which will serve as the necessary catalyst in order to bring about these much-needed changes. According to the Scriptures, it is Jesus Christ Himself who will destroy the Antichrist, the Beast, and the False Prophet, as well as their ungodly army of earthly followers, at the great Battle of Armageddon, as we see by these verses:
"And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty . . . And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon."
Revelation 16:13-14, 16, KJV
"And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war. His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself. And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God. And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean. And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS. And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that fly in the midst of heaven, Come and gather yourselves together unto the supper of the great God; That ye may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of captains, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of them that sit on them, and the flesh of all men, both free and bond, both small and great. And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against his army. And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone. And the remnant were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse, which sword proceeded out of his mouth: and all the fowls were filled with their flesh."
Revelation 19:11-21, KJV
If I have understood these interpretations of the Quatrains of Nostradamus in the proper manner, then they attribute the downfall of this ungodly trio -- Satan-Beast-False Prophet -- to military defeats and other earthly forces. Christ's Return and the Battle of Armageddon aren't even mentioned. As I said earlier, this lack of any mention of the Lord's Second Coming really sticks out like a sore thumb in my view, and it should serve as a strong warning to other believers in Christ. While the "prophecies" of Michel Nostradamus may strongly support Biblical Endtime events in some areas, such as by cryptically describing the rise of the Beast, the dangerous situation in the Middle East, the currently-developing global computerized identification and credit system referred to as the Mark of the Beast -- or 666 -- etc., I fail to understand his reasons for not mentioning that it will in fact be the invasion of the Godly Forces from Heaven, led by none other than Jesus Christ, which will definitively defeat Satan, the Beast, and the False Prophet; and that their defeat will not come about as a result of a natural progression of earthly political and military events.
Another factor which seems to cast a shadow of doubt upon the "prophecies" of Michel Nostradamus, are some blatant inaccuracies; at least according to the interpretations of his Quatrains which I have read. Accordingly, Pope John Paul II was to have died during the early part of 1996, slain by an assassin. As we all know, this did not happen, and Pope John Paul II died as a result of complications in his old age in 2005, nine years later.
According to the controversial prophecy of one St. Malachy, following John Paul II, there are only going to be two more Popes before the final collapse of the Roman Catholic Church occurs. According to online information I read several years ago, some RCC insiders were convinced that the Archbishop of Paris, Cardinal Jean-Marie Lustiger, was going to be next to sit on the so-called "chair of Saint Peter". It was likewise predicted, according to some interpretations, that Lustiger would also be assassinated. As we all know, this prediction also failed. Lustiger died at the age of eighty in 2007. Two years earlier, in April of 2005, Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger of Germany became Pope Benedict XVI, following the death of Pope John Paul II. Please see my article "Cardinal Ratzinger's Rebellion" for more information regarding this current Pope.
In his prophecy. St. Malachy also states that the final Pope will be called Peter the Roman. His motto, in Latin, states as follows, according to the original 1595 text:
----- Begin Quote -----
"In psecutione extrema S.R.E. sedebit Petrus Romanus, qui pascet oves in multis tribulationibus: quibus transactis civitas septicollis diruetur, et Iudex tremendus iudicabit populum suum. Finis."
----- End Quote -----
The previous text can be loosely translated into English as meaning the following:
"In extreme persecution, the seat of the Holy Roman Church will be occupied by Peter the Roman, who will feed (lead) the sheep through many tribulations, at the term of which the city of seven hills will be destroyed, and the formidable Judge will judge his people. The End."
It is said that Peter the Roman will totally compromise with the Endtime global leader known as the Beast. In fact, those who have interpreted the Quatrains of Nostradamus, claim that this final Pope will be the False Prophet -- mentioned in the thirteenth chapter of the Book of Revelation -- who will work together with the Beast. Is there any truth to their claims? Well, it seems to me that these New Age interpreters have had a rather poor track record; and in my view, it certainly does not inspire much confidence in any of their other predictions or interpretations. As I point out in several of my articles, such as "The Seven Heads" and "Who Is Who: Defining Endtime Terms", my current belief is that the Beast and the False Prophet may possibly be an Islamic pair who work together to destroy Israel. One possible example might be the Ayatollah and President of Iran, who both share a common hatred for Israel.
At any rate, if there is any truth regarding this prophecy concerning Peter the Roman, it does not appear that we will have to wait much longer in order to find out. After all, at this current time, Pope Benedict XVI is already eighty-two years old; and when he was elected as the new Pope by the Roman Catholic College of Cardinals in 2005, it was already realized then that he would serve a short term due to his age.
Now, in case you are wondering how St. Malachy fits into our current discussion concerning the Quatrains of Nostradamus, allow me to offer a brief explanation. You see, some people are convinced that his prophecy, which involved one hundred and twelve papal mottoes written in Latin, was not written by St. Malachy at all. One of the theories is that this list of one hundred and twelve Popes, who were not named by name, but who were only described by their mottoes, was actually construed by Michel Nostradamus. They claim that Nostradamus purposely attributed the prophecy to Malachy, because he was afraid of being persecuted by the Roman Catholic Church, for having dared to foretell of the destruction of the Roman Catholic Church. Remember; this was during the time of the Inquisition. It is also interesting to note that prior to 1595, the prophecy of St. Malachy was unknown. Does this fact point to Nostradamus as being its true author?
Is there any truth to this Nostradamus/Malachy mystery? I honestly do not know; but as I noted earlier, time will be the best tester of Michel Nostradamus and his Quatrains. As I've already pointed out, the dilemma we face here is this: Should we forthrightly accuse Michel Nostradamus of being a false prophet, or should we attach this label to those who have misinterpreted his works? If Nostradamus hadn't been so fearful of the Inquisition, perhaps we would have a better idea of what he truly meant, and we could thus make a better evaluation regarding the validity and accuracy of his work. For now, the best advice that I can offer you, in addition to the previous verses that I shared with you, would be the following:
"Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them."
Matthew 7:15-20, KJV
"And when this cometh to pass, (lo, it will come,) then shall they know that a prophet hath been among them."
Ezekiel 33:33, KJV
"But the prophet, which shall presume to speak a word in my name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or that shall speak in the name of other gods, even that prophet shall die. And if thou say in thine heart, How shall we know the word which the LORD hath not spoken? When a prophet speaketh in the name of the LORD, if the thing follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which the LORD hath not spoken, but the prophet hath spoken it presumptuously: thou shalt not be afraid of him."
Deuteronomy 18:20-22, KJV
You may also want to consider reading my article "Office Of A Prophet", and similar articles which deal with Endtime deception.
If you stop to think about it, we find ourselves in somewhat of a similar position when it comes to the Bible. We English speakers are at a clear disadvantage here. Why? Because we were not personally or directly involved in the events which influenced and shaped the translation of each book, nor in the decisions which resulted in which books were accepted as a part of the Canon. In fact, we don't even have second-hand knowledge. As I point out in my article "The History Of The Authorized KJV Bible", what we read today is the result of various collations, translations and interpretations. The purity and accuracy of our modern Bible, in large part, has thus been determined by the original translators, such as Desiderius Erasmus, William Tyndale, Coverdale, et al, the governmental authorities of that time, and the powerful religious authorities of that time as well.
While it may surprise some of my readers that I would even say this -- as it may appear that I am detracting from the Bible -- it may very well be that as a result of the power and influence that each of these parties wielded during the translation process, the Scriptures and the prophecies that we have received today, may be heavily adulterated. In other words, some of them may no longer be as pure, and their true meanings may have been lost for intentional or unintentional reasons. As I explain in the aforementioned series, as well as in such articles as "The Lamb Of God Was A Goat", I feel that this may indeed be the case with the beloved KJV Bible, which I highly respect, and have used for about forty years.
In short, I suspect that the Bible may be a much more radical book that we realize, but those in power at the time, both political and religious authorities, had the interpretations of some areas toned down so-to-speak, so that they wouldn't be quite so radical, so offensive, or so contradictory to the established beliefs which were dominant at the time, and more acceptable to the general populace, as well as to King James.
As we conclude this discussion in part two, we will apply my previous comments to the Quatrains of Nostradamus, as well as more closely examine the practice of channeling. Also to be discussed will be true Prophets versus the inaccuracy of false prophets, America's generation of false shepherds, New Age influence on the American West Coast, charismatics and the practice of necromancy, possible motivations behind the omission of Christ's Return in the Quatrains, seeing what we want to see, our hunger to know the unknown, controlling our own destinies, trusting God for the future, my personal position concerning the Quatrains, being persuaded in our minds, and a series of questions which can be applied as a litmus test. I trust that you will join me.

Smartphone Plans Exposed: 4 Mobile Myths Costing You Real MoneyMarch 24th, 2015 by Tech Staff
Most people today have a cellphone that rarely leaves their side. In fact, cellphone usage is at an all-time high, with 91 percent of adults owning one, reports the Pew Research Center. While the technology has drastically improved many aspects of daily life, the cost of devices and service plans – as well as the complex contracts – leaves many people feeling like they're being hustled.
We believe you have a right to know about the commonly believed misconceptions about the cellphone industry that are causing people to spend more than necessary. Get the facts by learning the truth about the most common cellphone myths below!
Myth: One late payment won't affect your credit score
Reality: It doesn't take much for your credit score to take a hit. One late payment can stay on your record for up to seven years. Because most of the top wireless carriers use your credit score to judge whether they should give you the best deals, that means one bad decision can haunt you years later. First, always make it a priority to pay your bills on time. Second, look for a carrier that considers more than a credit check to obtain the best deals.
Myth: The advertised deals from carriers are for anyone
Reality: Wireless carriers spend $4 billion advertising their "best" deals on smartphones, yet in reality, more than half of Americans cannot get the deals because they are reserved only for those with the "best" credit. According to the Consumer Federation of America, credit score plays a "vital" role in many purchases.
Myth: Almost all American adults have a smartphone
Reality: At a time when mobile connectivity is sweeping the globe, the United States ranks 13th in the world in terms of smartphone penetration ? behind a dozen countries including Australia, Israel and Saudi Arabia. There are more than 100 million American adults who don't have a smartphone according to Pew Research and the U.S. Census Bureau. A smartphone paired with the right plan for your needs can keep you connected and benefit your budget. Furthermore, many people choose to eliminate land lines and sometimes even Internet service at home to save and then solely rely on their smartphones to stay connected.
Myth: You pay more for smartphones with no-contract plans
Reality: Consumer Reports states it's cheaper to buy a phone through a no-contract plan. Why? Because you finance the phone separately from your wireless service and therefore once it is paid off, your monthly bill can decrease. You will not continue to pay a higher amount after that time – unlike an annual service contract plan. Research popular no-contract prepaid and postpaid plans, like Simple Choice from T-Mobile, Verizon or WalMart Family Mobile. Loyal customers can immediately qualify based on their relationship with each carrier making the best wireless deals more accessible.

T-Mobile Partners With Shakira and the Rest of Globe at Un-Carrier 3.0October 11th, 2013 by Analie
T-Mobile is changing up the mobile game again! The Uncarrier went to phase 3 of their Uncarrier plan today and announced 4 big changes.
T-Mobile Uncarrier 3.0 Announcements
1. 4G LTE is now nationwide (rollout). That means T-Mobile is now reaching more than 200 million people in 233 metros across the U.S.
2. Stateside International Talk & Text: T-Mobile now allows their customers to call certain countries (70 Simple Global countries) for just $10 more (to their Simple Plan). And when in those select Simple Global countries, T-Mobile customers will have unlimited text, unlimited voice calls, and pay just $.20 / minute for voice calls.
3. Starting October 31st, T-Mobile will offer unlimited text and data to 100 Simple Global countries worldwide. They will also pay just $.20 / minute for voice calls when roaming in the same countries. No activation or extra monthly fee necessary.
4. Partnership With Shakira – T-Mobile has also partnered with Latin Grammy award-winning artist Shakira to help spread key messages. The partnership between T-Mobile and Shakira goes hand in hand with their global coverage. I guess she's somewhat of a creative director.
Those that travel often or call overseas often may breathe a sigh of relief. It's great not having to be worried about roaming charges or international rates.
"Today is all about bringing the world closer together,. I'm excited to partner with T-Mobile and look forward to being able to share my music in new and innovative ways." – Shakira

Move Over T-Mobile and Sprint – Verizon Wireless Has Upgrade Rumors RisingJuly 17th, 2013 by Christen
Verizon Wireless Has Upgrade Rumors
If last week's announcement of T-Mobile's Jump upgrade plan and Sprint's unlimited plans got your feathers a little ruffled (because you're a Verizon Wireless customer) then here's great news for you.
Verizon Wireless Has Upgrade Rumors
The folks at Droid Life have acquired a Verizon document detailing a new VZ Edge program that'll allow customers to trade in their phones once they've paid off 50 percent of the purchase price. To join the program, Verizon will merely require a monthly fee of unknown amount, and in return, folks can get their upgrades early fee free and without contract. When will customers get the option to do so? According to the doc, launch is scheduled for Q3, August 25th, to be exact. So, if Verizon can stick to its schedule, its customers are just under six weeks away from being free from the tyranny of the new every two upgrade cycle.

Got Sprint or T-Mobile? Then You've Got Upgrades Coming Your WayJuly 13th, 2013 by Christen
There's been a shakeup this week in the mobile carrier community caused by Sprint and T-Mobile and you may want to do something about it.
T-Mobile, which recently rebranded itself as the "uncarrier" among U.S. wireless companies because of its abolishing of traditional two-year contracts, on Wednesday announced a new program called Jump to give customers on its network more freedom to upgrade their phones. Starting July 14th, customers will be able to upgrade phones twice a year, with the first upgrade coming in no earlier than six months. Jump costs $10 a month and includes insurance for the phone. Customers will be required to trade in their old phone.
Just a day after T-Mobile debuted its Jump upgrade plan, Sprint has answered with its own new plans that promise unlimited data for life. Starting July 12th, both new and existing Sprint customers can take advantage of the carrier's offer by signing up for one of its new My Way or My All-in plans.
The new Unlimited, My Way plans features unlimited talk, text and data starting at $80 per month. However, you can opt for 1GB for data for $70 monthly if you're looking to save money. You can also choose to add 1GB of hotspot data to your phone for $10 per month.
And how will AT&T and Verizon respond with competing customer deals? Hopefully we'll hear something very soon…
Are you a Sprint customer & plan to upgrade to the new unlimited My Way or My All-in plans? Why? Are you a T-Mobile customer who's looking to upgrade devices twice a year? Share your thoughts below…

Texting & Driving Isn't Just A Teen Problem…Take The Pledge & Spread The Word #ItCanWaitJuly 12th, 2013 by Christen
Texting & Driving isn't just a teen problem… more and more adults do it everyday! The lid hiding the misconception of texting and driving has been uncovered, and the fact is there are more adults who text and drive than teens. So what does that mean to you? That means that there are more seasoned, commuters on the road who believe that they're capable of texting while operating a motor vehicle and putting more and more people in danger now than ever before.
Earlier this year, AT&T released the results of its latest commuter survey which showed 49% of commuters admitted to texting and driving versus 43% of teens. These findings finally dispelled the myth that texting and driving is predominantly a teen problem, when in fact, commuters are more guilty of it.
While there are impactful psa commercials on tv & celebrities like Gabby Douglass and Demi Lovato bringing light to the #ItCanWait campaign, many people still do not realize the dangers that texting while driving can cause. That's where you can help! You now know that texting and driving is wrong, so why not spread the word?
Here are TWO QUICK and easy ways you can spread the word, take a stand and show support.
Step One: Take the #ItCanWait pledge. "I just took the pledge @ itcanwait.com now NO TEXT IS WORTH THE RISK. #itcanwait"
Step Two: Use your social media channels to spread the word & show that you're publicly taking a stand: http://twibbon.com/Support/It-
Your next text shouldn't be your last. Add your own #twibbon today to show that you support the #ItCanWait Movement. Join AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile, Sprint and other champions of the movement today!
This post has been sponsored in part by the "IT CAN WAIT" program which focuses on educating people – especially teens – about the dangers of texting and driving. The message is simple, yet vital: When it comes to texting and driving, it can wait. For more information visit ItCanWait.com.
Put Your Skills To The Test With The Texting While Driving Simulator OnlineJuly 2nd, 2013 by Christen
This post has been sponsored in part by the "IT CAN WAIT" program which focuses on educating people – especially teens – about the dangers of texting and driving. The message is simple, yet vital: When it comes to texting and driving, it can wait. For more information visit ItCanWait.com.
If you've ever thought that texting while driving was dangerous for everyone except you – or that you have exceptional multitasking skills which include texting & eating lunch while driving, then I've got news for you. It appears that more adults are becoming culprits of dangerous texting and driving activities than teens. That's according to the results of a survey conducted by AT&T and published in USA Today, showing that 49% of adult drivers admit to texting behind the wheel. Compare that with 43% of the teen respondents admitting that they text while driving.
Many adults may believe that their experience will never fail when it comes to texting while driving, however they've changed their tune after experiencing the Texting While Driving Simulator online. The online simulator puts you in "real life" scenarios causing you to choose between answering a text or making a wrong driving decision (which could ultimately cause you to crash — or worse, lose your augmented reality life!)
I recently tried out the simulator and as a driver who once thought that she's the queen of auto multitasking, I can whole-heartedly attest that the simulator game reveals a first hand account of how seriously dangerous texting while driving truly is. During the simulator, my online driving experience was paired with my smartphone which enabled me to receive text messages while maneuvering the driving simulation online. My first idea was to keep a minimum driving speed which would help my reaction and reply time once I began to receive text messages – but clearly that didn't work. (Note: If you're not driving within 10miles of the speed limit, your simulation session will end).
However, the moment I began speeding using the simulator and tried to respond to a text, I was prompted to make a left turn & before I knew it – I collided with a city transit bus. This simulation is a great example on how it only takes a moment to get into a serious accident if you're texting while driving. After a few additional attempts, I am convinced that trying out this simulator with a co-worker, a friend, a teen or an adult will truly impact their beliefs on texting while driving – and hopefully save lives this summer in the process.
If you believe that "No text message is worth dying for" take the "It Can Wait" Pledge and join the AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile & Sprint as a champion for this campaign for change. If you have yet to try out the simulator, check it out here at http://www.itcanwaitsimulator.org.

SANTA FE — New Mexico Educational Retirement Board has filed lawsuits against 24 people who received more than $181,000 in overpayments due to a computer error at the teacher pension fund.
The Albuquerque Journal reports that Jan Goodwin, the board's executive director said Friday the legal action was a "last resort" in an attempt to recoup the overpaid amounts, plus interest, from pension fund beneficiaries who have not yet repaid the money.
MADISON, Wis. — The state is advising against the importing of livestock from certain parts of New Mexico after a viral disease was found in horses there.
The disease is vesicular stomatitis, or VS. It resembles Foot-and-Mouth, primarily affecting horses, cattle, swine and occasionally sheep and goats.
It causes fever and blisters in the mouth, nostrils, hooves and teats. The animal recovers in three to four days.

Titled Satanism, Insanity, and Dungeons & Dragons, the panel addresses gaming part of the Satanic Panic in the 1980s which insisted, stridently, that anybody playing D&D was worshipping the devil and on the road that inevitably led to insanity and death.
Leigh George Kade (@LGKade) – of the Geek Show Podcast. His introduction isn't a part of the audio. The other panelists include:
Platte Clark (@PlatteClark) – author of Bad Unicorn from Simon and Schuster
Charles Gannon – author and writer for several games at GDW

Howdy Ya'll,
Sorry I've been inactive, but I've been busy as hell. Been putting together a rig over the last several months with Craig Marshall of Cubensis from down in Southern California.
We're running a SMS CTP with JG mods through different power amps with different guitars. We had a chance to REALLY give things a go at the OC Music Festival. I have noticed how much of a different picking style makes in tone, and we had a rare opportunity here- Both Craig and I use Adamas, though he uses the corner of the pick, attacking lightly and dead on, whereas I use the tip at about a 45 degree angle.
Here's a Godfrey Daniels "Ghostfinger" with P92? pickups into the CTP, a BGW 250d, and 4x12 e120s:
The following night, we ran a Curuthers guitar with Super 2s, split,OBEL, etc. into the CTP and then a restored (stock) 2300 and the 4x12 e120s.
The upper cabinet is a Hardtruckers with two late 80s Es (one reconed by OC Speaker) and the lower one is the one I had made back in January with two Mid 90s Es that mijknahs sold me. His rig was been a point of comparison over the months. Thanks buddy!
Let me know what ya'll think, ideas, etc.

Wasting Food Can Lead To Climate Change
Apr 11, 2016 07:56 AM EDT | By Mikhail Blacer
The world is already producing more food that it can consume. In spite of this, food shortages are still rampant across the globe, and food waste numbers are across the charts. These problems appear to be contradicting each other, but it has led to another queer problem: climate change. Apparently, the large amount of food waste being produced is leading to climate change, ACS reported.
Since there is an overproduction of food and is being wasted instead of given to people who direly need it, this presents a major dilemma to world food security. This also affects climate change, simply because the greenhouse gases being used to produce the food is negatively affecting the atmosphere. The study also concludes that the food requirement will increase by 2 percent to 20 percent by 2050. This, in turn, means the problem will increase drastically in the future, making the problem worse.
A new study, which was done by the researchers at Potsdam's Institute for Climate Impact Research, found that a third of the world's food production does not find its way into our plates. Furthermore, the rate of which is projected to increase in the long run.
"Reducing food waste can contribute to fighting hunger, but to some extent also prevent climate impacts like more intense weather extremes and sea-level rise," lead author Ceren Hic in a press release said.
The agriculture industry is also a major factor in dishing out greenhouse gases, accounting for a 5th of the world's total emissions. Other major industries contributing to emissions include the automobile and fossile fuel industries.
"At the same time, agriculture is a major driver of climate change, accounting for more than 20 Percent of overall global greenhouse-gas emissions in 2010," co-author Prajal Pradhan explain. "sAvoiding food loss and waste would, therefore, avoid unnecessary greenhouse-gas emissions and help mitigate climate change."

36F. That's not the size of the pistol Dixie Devereaux is packing. When the big-boobed spy discovers foreign agent Boris Banganov breaking into her headquarters, she makes the operative cooperative by blowing his pants off and pumping him until he cries U.N.C.L.E. She's the spy who banged him, the Girl From J.U.G.S. Those two licenses to kill hidden under her sweater really come in handy for Agent 36F. "I have fun by having sex!" Agent 36F admits in her dossier. "At least every other day. And giving blow jobs. Giving blow jobs really satisfies me. I like to masturbate, too.

The first couple years after we moved out here, Deborah belonged to about two dozen Internet groups, and she credits all of those people for helping her and the family to navigate the unfamiliar territory they encountered on the homestead.
In 2009, Deborah created an online network for people interested in Nigerian dwarf goats. Sometimes, you just can't find the answer in a book, and you need to talk to someone who's actually "been there." In our online community, you can ask questions, create a blog, post pictures and videos, and meet new friends who also love the littlest dairy goats. Whether you're just thinking about adding goats to your homestead or you're a seasoned goat breeder, you're welcome to join us. Visit Nigerian Dwarf Dairy Goats community online.
If you were ever curious about the natural process of birth for a goat, you can watch this video of our goat, Carmen, giving birth to twins in January 2009. All of our goats are allowed to give birth naturally and raise their own kids. In the rare instance when there is a problem with the mama goat or the baby, we will, of course, step in to do whatever needs to be done to best care for the individual animal. We will only bottle-feed kids if there is a reason they cannot nurse from their own mother, and when bottle-feeding, we still use the mother's milk. Hypothermia at birth is the most common reason for bottle-feeding, which is why we need to be there to dry the kid completely as soon as it's born. Although most mamas can do a great job of cleaning up one or two kids, it is often impossible for them to care for three or four when they're born very quickly. It is especially challenging when kids are born in the middle of an Illinois winter. A mild case of hypothermia will mean a kid is too weak to stand or nurse, but kids can die from hypothermia, which is why we need to be at the births of all goats born when it's colder than about 50 degrees outside. It's such a simple thing, but it's terribly important.

If your track sessions are falling short, here are some new twists on training to help you run a faster 10K.
This workout relies on short, high-intensity intervals at a high incline coupled with generous rest, and is guaranteed to improve your speed by stimulating your neuromuscular system.
Most runners use a seven day training cycle when preparing for an event. However, there is no inherent reason to stick with a standard week. Coach Allie Burdick suggests adding two days to your training cycle to help you get more from your training.
When training for your first marathon, it can be difficult to know how much speed work to incorporate. Use the advice from Hal Higdon to make your training as effective as possible.
After a successful 10k, one runner wants to know if he can start Hal's 12 week Novice 1 program at the six week mark and still be ready for a Half marathon.
The first running races of the season are around the corner, so make sure you are ready. Use these tips and workouts from coach Bob Mittleman to set up the right plan and start your season right.
Training with a heart rate monitor is a great way to begin using objective data to track your fatigue, fitness, and ensure that you are progressing. These tips from expert coaches will help you get started with the basics of using your heart rate monitor.
Many coaches look at the base period as a time of easy paced miles to build a large base for the coming season. However, Coach Jeff Boele believes that a higher fitness level can be achieved by incorporating more pace specific work. Learn more about how you can incorporate his methods in your coaching.
Using the track is a great way to improve your ability to pace yourself correctly. Use this workout from Todd Parker to help you get in touch with the right pace for you.
