Exodus 13:17-15:19 One of my favorite expressions is, "The victory is ours, and the battle is the Lord's." There have been many trials in my life, as there are in all of our lives. Jesus said that in the world we would have tribulation, but His exhortation was to be of good cheer, for He has overcome the world. James tells us to count it all joy when we have trials because these trials will form patience and other character traits of God in us. read more

The Fear of the Lord
Psalm 25:12-22 There are many benefits that come to those who fear the Lord. This passage lists only a few of them. What does it mean to fear the Lord? The fear of the Lord is an awesome respect that causes us to honor and worship the Lord with all of our being. When we fear the Lord, we will desire to walk in His ways. The good news is that all those who fear the Lord will be taught the ways of God. read more
Lifting Up Your Soul
Psalm 25:1-11 Yesterday's reading talked about lifting up our heads and hearts to the Lord. We discovered that the spirit of man represents the holy of holies in the temple of God. We are now the temple of the Holy Spirit. The soul (mind, will and emotions) of man represents the inner court of our temple. The body represents the outer court of the temple, and the gates to that temple are our five senses. When Jesus died on the cross and gave His spirit into the hands of the Father, the veil of the temple was rent in two. The mercy seat of God now became available to not only the high priest, but to all who would believe and receive Jesus as their Lord and Savior. read more
Lift Up Your Head and Hearts
Psalm 24:1-10 This psalm has special meaning to me because it is one of the psalms I memorized when I was in grammar school. The first thing we did each morning in school was pray the Lord's Prayer together, read a psalm and work on memorizing it, pledge allegiance to the flag and sing the national anthem. Can you imagine the stir this would cause in public schools today if this was done? It is illogical that God and country have been removed from our children's education when education has its roots in Christianity. The first schools that existed in our country were church schools. How I pray that one day we will be able to once again have freedom of speech that includes praying aloud in public schools. Until that time we as parents can teach our children the importance of honor for country and the value of the Word of God. We need to exhort our children to memorize Scriptures because the Word that is hidden in children's hearts at a young age will be with them always. I actually paid my boys to learn Proverbs. They were given $1 for every verse in Proverbs they memorized. When our Russian son took this on as a challenge, he just about broke me. read more
Unforgiveness: A Luxury No One Can Afford
Matthew 18:23-19:12 In this passage in Matthew, Jesus tells the story of the servant who had been forgiven all his debt by his master, but this servant was unwilling to forgive another the debt he was owed. The conclusion to this story is the following statement: "And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due unto him. So likewise shall my heavenly Father do also unto ye, if you from ye hearts forgive not every one his brother their trespasses" (Matt. 18:34-35, KJV). read more
The Value of a Prayer Partner
Matthew 18:1-22 It has been my privilege over my fifty-plus years as a Christian to always have a prayer partner. There are so many advantages in having a prayer partner. This passage in Matthew gives two very important reasons for us to pray with others. Jesus tells us, "Again I say unto you, that if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven. For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them" (Matt. 18:19-20, KJV). read more
Why Have You Forsaken Me?
Psalm 22:1-18 Some of the most traumatic feelings a person can experience is being abandoned. Abandonment rocks our emotions with feelings of insecurity, fear, doubt, loneliness, failure, rejection, grief, sorrow and unworthiness, just to name a few. I've never experienced abandonment, but I know people who have. I know a fifty-year-old man who is still being healed emotionally of the abandonment he experienced as a young boy. Both his mother and father were alcoholics, and they would leave their two young boys on the beach alone at night while they partied at the bars. Later this man's father killed his mother. Imagine the trauma of abandonment he felt. read more
God Meant It for Good
Genesis 50:1-Exodus 2:10 Throughout our lives circumstances and situations occur that we just do not understand. For example, I have been praying this week for two dear saints of the Lord who have been stricken with cancer. They both love the Lord with all of their hearts, and yet they are facing a severe test of faith. Why would God allow such a thing to occur? I often see how we blame God for our troubles, but we have to remember the "trouble maker" is not God. The "trouble maker" is Satan, and his plan is to destroy us. God's plan is to give us life and give it to us more abundantly. My husband had two heart attacks, and during that time, he held on to the scripture in Jeremiah 29:11: "For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end" (KJV). read more
Our Heritage
Genesis 48:1-49:33 Just recently I had the joy of discovering the genealogy of my family on the side of my maternal grandfather. I had the history of my father back to the 1600s, but I had no knowledge of the ancestry of my mother. Some people are really into their heritage, and I'm thankful for people who keep records and research genealogies, because it is rewarding to know our heritage. read more
Matthew 15:1-28 Remember the song from Fiddler on the Roof called "Tradition"? We all have our traditions. I recall one Christmas hosting my older sister and her family from Seattle. She and her family have their special Christmas traditions, and so does our family. We had a time trying to fit in both family traditions on Christmas day. Traditions are not bad, but they can become a hindrance to God's Word. In fact, if we hold to our religious traditions more than we hold to God's Word, we can make the Word of God have no effect in our lives. read more

Sopa de quinoa (quinoa soup) is a traditional dish in Andean countries, where it is prepared many different ways. Two of the most popular variations are a creamy, milk-based soup (good for breakfast), and more stew-like dish with beef and potatoes. This recipe is the stew version, with a clear broth and potatoes. It can also be prepared without the beef as a vegetarian dish - the quinoa gives it extra protein.Black quinoa has a more earthy than other quinoa varieties, as well as a chewier texture. Black quinoa pairs well with the strong flavors of this stew, and it's dramatic dark color makes it perfect for fall/winter occasions.
Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 2 hours
Total Time: 2 hours, 20 minutes
Yield: Serves 4.
- 1 pound stewing beef, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 packet Sazon Goya seasoning with achiote (or 1 teaspoon garlic salt and 1 teaspoon paprika)
- 1-2 carrots, peeled and diced
- 1 acorn squash, peeled and diced
- 3-4 cups beef broth
- 1 pound small new potatoes, assorted colors, cut in half
- 2/3 cups black quinoa
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Place the olive oil in a large soup pot. Over medium-high heat, brown the stewing beef in the olive oil until well browned on all sides. Remove the beef from pot and set aside.
- Add the minced garlic and the chopped onion to the same soup pot. Cook onions and garlic over medium-low heat, stirring, until they are softened and fragrant. Add the cumin and Goya seasoning and cook for several minutes more. Add the diced carrots and squash and sauté vegetables until slightly browned and softened.
- Add the browned beef back to the pot. Cover the beef and vegetables with 3-4 cups of beef broth. Simmer stew gently, covered, for about an hour, until beef is tender.
- Add the potatoes and simmer until just barely tender, adding more broth or water if needed.
- Add the quinoa and simmer for 20-25 minutes longer.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste, and serve.

Anyone who is interested in the facts about the "theory" of evolution should read "Darwin on Trial" by Phillip E. Johnson.
Evolution will never be proven as fact because there is no empirical evidence to support it. Colin Patterson, a senior paleontologist at the British Natural History Museum and author of that museum's general text on evolution, came to the University of Chicago for a series of seminars. He was having doubts about teaching evolution as a fact.
He asked a panel of experts on evolution consisting of geologists and professors to answer a question. Could they name one thing about evolution that was true? There was total silence until one scientist replied, "I do know one thing — it ought not be taught in high school."
A study of world history reveals that many of the world's greatest thinkers have believed in God or that Divine Intelligence brought the universe into existence. Men with superior intellect believed there were rational laws governing the universe. One scientist wrote that "the laws governing the universe seem to be written in the language of mathematics."
The foundations of modern science were laid by men who believed "human reason was derived from Divine Intelligence so that the rationality of the universe is mirrored in the rationality of human minds."
"An unbiased look at the history of science shows that modern science is an invention of medieval Christianity and the greatest breakthroughs in scientific reason have largely been the work of Christianity," said another historian.
Most modern inventions are based on research conducted by men who believed in God. Einstein recognized that the universe did not come into existence by chance. He wrote, "All I have tried to do in my life is ask a few questions. Could God have created the universe any other way or had He no choice?"
Anyone who believes America would be a better nation if everyone were to believe the theory of evolution or the fabrication of the science channel or science periodicals should look at world history. The regimes of atheistic leaders like Lenin, Stalin, Pol Pot and Hitler were responsible for the slaughter of millions of innocent lives. Evolution teaches man is an animal. The Bible teaches man can become a child of God.

CONNEAUT — Mary Ann Sikora, age 84, of Conneaut, Ohio, died at her home on Saturday, Sept. 28, 2013, with her dedicated, loving husband and children at her side.
Born in Conneaut on June 23, 1929, Mary Ann was the daughter of Arthur "Clyde" and Jessie "May" (Eddy) Bartlett.
She met her husband Leonard (at her mother's urging) while he was serving in the United States Army. Her constant letters to him made the time overseas easier and when he returned, he asked her to be his bride. They were married on Dec. 20, 1947, and celebrated 65 years of marriage in December of 2012. During the course of their marriage, Mary Ann and Leonard raised four children together, were blessed with five grandchildren and ten great-grandchildren.
Mary Ann worked as a housekeeping supervisor at the former Inn-Conneaut Health Center before retiring in 1989. Previous to working at Inn-Conneaut, she cared for her mother for ten years in her home, and after retirement, she also cared for her mother-in-law in her home for five years. She fulfilled her calling in life as an excellent caretaker to others many times.
She enjoyed caring for her family, cooking, cake decorating, crocheting, sewing and playing cards. Her talents served as a gift to many through the years.
Mary Ann was preceded in death by her parents, Arthur "Clyde" and Jessie "May" Bartlett; brothers, Robert Snow, Willis Bartlett, Chuck Bartlett, Stanley Bartlett, Hubert Bartlett, as well as three brothers in infancy; and sisters, Wilma Roberts, Roberta Sterling, Betty Dickson, Nancy Guy, Bernice McGraff and Dorothy McKinley.
She is survived by her husband, Leonard Sikora; one daughter, Gloria (Rich) Ferl of Conneaut; and three sons, Michael (Noriko) Sikora of Fayetteville, N.C., David (Tina) Sikora of Conneaut and Jeffrey Sikora of Youngstown, Ohio; and one sister, Jean Bean of Bradenton, Fla.; as well as grandchildren, Tony (Wendy) Sikora, Christine (Andre) Bennett, Sharon (Fadhl) Sikora, Greg (Darcie) Gibbs and Suzanne Kirsch; and great-grandchildren, Brittany, Brooke, Joshua, LaKayla, Devin, Ryan, Kyle, Zachary, Mary Lyn and Anthony.

Yankees offer Freddy Garcia arbitrationBy
The Yankees have offered Type-B free agent Freddy Garcia arbitration. If he signs elsewhere, they will receive a supplemental first round draft pick as compensation. You can see all of the Type-A and B free agents (and their arbitration statuses) on our 2012 Draft Order page.
Garcia has until December 7th to accept the offer. He's in line for a ~$6-7M salary if he does accept, but the two sides have been discussing a reunion in recent weeks. I have a feeling Freddy might have agreed to decline arbitration before the offer was made, similar to Javy Vazquez last season.

He can get a long term deal by someone else. I hope that he does.
he'll get a 2-year deal somewhere, i think. i also hope he does. i want javier vasquez. i'm only half-kidding too.

Chris Christie, the current governor of New Jersey, has earned fans from both sides of the political aisle thanks to his refreshing no-nonsense attitude. With his straightforward approach to handling public relations and lack of political swagger, Christie was bombarded with pleas to enter the 2012 presidential race.
After consulting with his family and top aides, the governor spoke about his final decision on Tuesday. "When you have serious people from across the spectrum, not to mention from all across the country, passionately calling on you to do something as consequential as running for president of the United States, I felt an obligation to earnestly consider their advice," he told reporters in Treton, NJ. He added, "In the end, what I always felt was the right decision remains the right decision today. Now is not my time."
The New Jersey governor's refusal to throw his hat into the ring is largely seen as a boon for the GOP's current leading candidate, Mitt Romney. When asked which of the current GOP candidates he supported, Christie told reporters that he was not ready to make any endorsements.
By refusing to step into the ring for 2012, Christie is leaving himself an open opportunity in 2016. Mitt Romeny would be a tough candidate to beat in this round given his popularity, success with fund-raising and personal wealth. The governor has already made faint indications that he has aspirations for higher political office. When asked if he would accept a vice presidential nomination, he replied, "I don't think there's anybody in America who thinks my personality is best suited to being Number Two."
By refusing to be considered in 2016, the governor can plot a possible ascension in 2016. The huge amount of publicity he received this year will serve him well when his name comes up again. There are no doubt already many strategic discussions between political advisors behind closed doors.
Chris Christie was just one of the many names bandied about for the GOP presidential nominee. Others have included Donald Trump, Sarah Palin, and Michele Bachmann.

The student section at Andover Central basketball games is one of the best around. And right in front of the large, loud student section is senior Zac Gentzler, leading cheers.
In his wrestling singlet.
Gentzler (37-0 at 120 pounds) is a wrestler through and through. He started wrestling at 4 and has signed with Oklahoma State after already having national success.
Gentzler tries to become Kansas 29th wrestler to win four state titles Friday and Saturday in the Class 5A tournament at Hartman Arena.
But during basketball games, hes one of the most involved.
Hes a popular kid, everyone likes him, and when hes doing that at our games, its obviously good for (our team) and good for the school, boys basketball coach Jesse Herrmann said.
This is the first season, though, that Gentzler has attended basketball games.
I didnt go to one basketball game freshman through junior year, Gentzler said. I dont know whats changed, but I think the more I support every sports team, the more they come out for me. And, its my senior year, I need to enjoy it.
Gentzlers focus has always been on wrestling. While he is a straight-A student after winning Saturdays regional championship he watched wrestling video and did his homework his absorption in the sport never waned.
He wants to get better and he puts in the work. Thats nothing new.
His social life revolved around wrestling and the Armadillo Gang, a phrased coined by a former wrestler a half-dozen years ago. Monday night the group went to Taco Shop for dinner and then bowled.
But outside of his wrestling teammates, Gentzlers social life was quiet.
I just never really got out and had fun, he said. I was too worried about wrestling, wrestling, wrestling. It feels good to go out and hang out with my buddies.
Now hes added his student section duties at basketball. He was the winter homecoming king.
The change is one coach Chris Saferite is glad to see.
Hes taken a bigger role in being a bigger part of the student body as a whole, Saferite said. Hes now part of the student council. Hes at basketball games and football games. Hes part of the student section, and hes kind of a leader in that.
Wrestling will take care of itself, and he knows that. I enjoy seeing him being more of a leader outside wrestling.
Gentzlers slight shift of focus has allowed him to approach his defense of three state titles with less tension. He knows opponents are targeting him. He knows hell get the best match from whomever he faces.
As his father, Dan, says, winning four takes a bit of good fortune you have to be injury free. Its why when Zac Gentzler complained of a sore throat last week, his father went to the grocery store for any medicine containing the word throat.
I wasnt taking any chances, Dan Gentzler said with a laugh.
Zac Gentzler he wants his fourth title. Badly. Its what hes worked for, dreamed of.
This means the world to me, he said. I have put so much work in, but I dont want to get ahead of myself. I need to take it one match at a time.
Gentzler, who has one loss in high school, has also upped his workouts the past two seasons. He admits to not putting in the extra time during his first two years at Central.
But hes been the first one to arrive and last to leave these last two years. When practice ends, hes doing extra pull-ups or sprints.
Gentzler has what all the great athletes do quickness, athleticism, strength. What sets him apart is his knowledge and experience.
He never gets out of position, Saferite said. Hell force opponents into bad situations, and at the same time, he can attack offensively, too. Like playing chess, hes always two, three steps ahead.
Saferite praises Gentzlers technical ability. The technical aspect is key because there are so many moves and counters and counters to someones counter.
Hes been doing it long enough that he knows so much more, Saferite said. But its not the fact that he knows all the moves that makes him good. Its how well he does the few that he really likes. Its his ability to attack on offense and be able to react defensively.
Gentzler has learned how to react to his quest for four, which is now down to the final few matches.
Hes put the time in at practice. Hes well-conditioned. He knows what he has to do.
Its been a grind, but hes been having fun along the way.
I just go out and press on, Gentzler said. Its the sport I love I just want to go out there and have fun.

I believe the Korvemakers lived in our house after us. We moved to 584 Dorothy in around 1958, then to 570 White Crescent in Capital Homes in 1964 and stayed there until 1970 when my parents sold to move to Ontario. The house on the right likely is the Hills who were are next door neighbours on Grove.
If anybody remembers our Dad, Arthur, he turned 86 yesterday and is doing fantastic in Roslin, Ontario.
I would love to see pictures of our places on Dorothy and White Crescent to show our kids here in Heckston, Ontario.
Keep up the good work on the website!
Barb Carver ( nee Went)
Thanks Barb
Congratulations to your Dad and we'll see if John R. can take the pics for you.

\ I have to say up front that one of my good friends in this business has been to Madison Square Garden for college basketball games and came away unimpressed, so I wasn't sure if I would buy into the aura of the place.\
\ The first thing that hit me when I walked into the actual arena (after roaming around the rest of the massive building aimlessly for about 20 minutes) was how small it seemed. The seats go out instead of up like the modern arenas, and there are far fewer aisles, so the seats are much more condensed. When empty during the morning skate, it really looked like there couldn\0x2019t be more than 12 or 13,000 seats in the place.\
\ That changed when the people started showing up. The print media guys actually sit down on the ice in the corner, right above where the Caps entered and exited the ice. It was a vastly different view than from above. It was fabulous when the puck was at our end and not so much when it wasn't.\
\ I will certainly admit that the atmosphere hooked me. I was out by our seats about two hours before the game when the anthem singer was warming up, and let's just say the anthem is a little different experience in that building. Then the place started filling up, it was rocking from start to finish.\
\ "Just by atmosphere alone, it has to be in the top five," Caps captain Chris Clark said. "It is an older building, but it has everything you need, but the atmosphere and just being in the building in the nicest part."\
\ Throw in the banners, the ceiling, the Rangers intro which is kicked off by Howard Cosell's opus on the city - it all makes for a pretty awesome hockey experience. Maybe it is different for basketball, and I am sure it is if there aren't 18,000 people rooting for the same team, but consider me hooked on the World's Most Famous Arena.\ — Corey Masisak

You can buy PATS tickets in person at the box office on the day of the event or in advance. You can also mail payment along with a self-addressed, stamped envelope. Call for details: (626) 449-7360.
At your local Ticketmaster outlet or via their website. There are additional fees when buying through Ticketmaster.
Packaged with Registration for RAW
You may package tickets to PATS with your registration for the Riverside AstroImaging Workshop (RAW). Get details here.
How can I get tickets for my local club to sell?
See the Club Information section for details.
Can you expand on the ticket-buying process? How does this work?
You can either purchase your ticket before coming to the event or purchase tickets at the door on the day of event. All tickets are identical, allowing admission for either Saturday or Sunday. Bring your ticket to the Pavilion entrance and exchange it for a hand stamp. The hand stamp allows admission for that day to all presentations and to the exhibit hall. Admission to PATS does not include admission to RAW. However, there are package rates available. More details are here.
What is a Weekend Pass?
A "Weekend Pass" consists of two tickets, one for Saturday and one for Sunday. Such passes are available only at the Box Office or through Ticketmaster. Club tickets can be used either Saturday or Sunday. So, if you are purchasing for both days from a club, you simply purchase two tickets.
What is the refund policy?
Refund policies are set by the organization selling the tickets (Ticketmaster, Pasadena Convention Center Box Office, or a participating astronomy club).
Do I need to register as an attendee?
No. As an attendee, simply purchase a ticket and exchange it for a hand stamp at the door. We do not need your name or any registration information. Registration is only required for clubs, vendors, and individuals seeking exhibit space in the exhibition hall.
Can you describe the PATS presentation schedule?
We have reserved a set of rooms for large and small presentations that will take place throughout both days of the event. Unfortunately, a detailed schedule is typically not available until mid-Summer or so. See the home page for a current list of scheduled presenters.
Is PATS soliciting additional presenters at this time?
In general, we are not looking for additional presenters at this point. However, if you would like to make a presentation or if you would like to schedule an astronomy club meeting at PATS, please contact us at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Are there going to be activities at PATS, aside from the scheduled speakers?
Yes! PATS is not just about vendors and speakers. There's a separate imaging conference, a public outreach, solar viewing, a tour of Mt. Wilson, and more!
Public Outreach
On Friday and Saturday nights, there will be a large public outreach at the Paseo Colorado, the beautiful shopping mall across the street from PATS. The outreach is hosted and supported by local astronomy clubs and individuals. Please contact us if you would like to help.
In addition to the evening outreach events, solar telescopes will be setup outside the exhibition hall for safely viewing the sun!
Riverside AstroImaging Workshop (RAW)
The Riverside Astroimaging Workshop will take place on the Thursday and Friday before PATS. It requires registration and a separate fee. RAW features hands on walk-throughs of popular image processing programs, discussions on equipment selection, and an evening remote imaging session! See patsimage.org for more details.
Mt. Wilson Tour
See the next entry for details on the Mt. Wilson tour and observing through the 60-inch telescope.
What are the details on the Mt. Wilson Tour?
The Mt. Wilson Observatory Superintendent, Dave Jurasevich, will lead a small group tour of the historic and still very productive site starting at 5:00PM on Saturday. The tour includes visits to historic Mt. Wilson sites such as the monastery and visitor center, and also includes an overview of the CHARA, and up-close and personal visits to the solar scope towers, the Hooker 100-inch telescope, and the 60-inch telescope. There will be an evening observing session through the 60-inch telescope. The tour requires advanced registration. This package includes dinner, and refreshments during the observing session. Details are available here. Participation is limited, so register early!
How can my club participate?
Astronomy clubs can participate in PATS by being present to solicit new members, to rent a booth to sell fund-raising items, or to volunteer for set up and break down. Clubs can also participate in PATS by being part of the discounted ticket program. The discounted ticket program is a great way get tickets to your members and to raise funds for your club's programs. We may solicit volunteers from local astronomy clubs now and then. We may also be able to send a speaker to your club meeting to talk about PATS. For more information, contact us.
What are the details on discounted tickets for clubs?
For the most thorough explanation, please contact us. Generally speaking, your astronomy-related organization or school will name a representative who will become the contact person with PATS/RTMC, Inc. The appointed representative will carry out the advance purchase of tickets, and will organize reselling them through your club (to members and others). The organization may return unused tickets for a refund on those tickets (timelines apply). Once your tickets are purchased from RTMC, Inc., the operator of PATS, and unsold tickets are returned (assuming there are no discrepancies), there is no further financial accounting or obligation on the part of your club or organization. This program is meant to be a source of revenue for your club or astronomy-related organization. Use the funds for your outreach program, facilities improvements, club promotion materials or other assets, and the like.
Of course, to make this an effective program, some planning and preparation on the part of your club or organization is required — So, get started early!
What are the details on the club tables/chairs at the event?
We have set aside various areas where we will provide a table and two chairs to recognized clubs, academic groups, and other non-profit astronomy-related organizations free of charge. Registration is required, however. See the Vendor & Club Info page for registration materials. Note that this offer does not include a full booth. It's simply a table for you to layout promotional materials and other items, and 2 chairs for your organization's representatives. Please register immediately if you would like to be considered. Admission to PATS is not included in this offer. The organization's representatives who will be staffing the table are still responsible for purchasing admission tickets. Your group may conduct limited monetary exchange. Permitted exchanges include registering club members or registration for club-sponsored events or activities. You MAY NOT sell anything, including but not limited to merchandise, hardware, software, souvenirs, food, or services. It is expected that your table will remain staffed throughout the day and not left unattended for extended periods of time.
There is no electricity or cart service at these tables. Two members of your organization may enter the hall one hour before the doors open to the public to set up materials. This is open to non-commercial entities only. Commercial vendors must register for a booth, whether they plan to sell items or not.
May clubs register for a booth?
Absolutely. Clubs are required to do so if they plan to sell items or services. When they register for a booth, they receive all the standard vendor benefits. Registration for a free table and chairs (described above) does not include a vendor booth.
Can an astronomy-related club or organization schedule a meeting or presentation around PATS?
Yes, and we encourage you to do so. It is an excellent way to expand your reach, and provide a common ground for a meeting. If everybody is coming to PATS anyway, why not put on a show and tell others what you do? Please contact Alex McConahay (firstname.lastname@example.com ) and tell him what you want. If you can be accommodated, we will make arrangements.
What space is available for vendors?
Detailed information is available on the Vendor & Club Info page.
The floor plan at the Pasadena Convention Center provides for about 80 booths. Prices per booth vary based on size, location in the hall, the date by which they're registered, and added ammenities. Prices increase after September 1st. The 10' x 10' and larger booths include pipe, drapes, table(s) and chairs. For an extra fee, electrical power, high-speed internet, and cart service are available. See the Vendor & Club Info page for additional information.
How do I reserve vendor exhibition space (a booth)?
Visit the Vendor & Club Info page or contact us.
Is there space for vendor demonstrations?
We have room available (in addition to vendor booths) for special presentations by vendors, manufacturers, and others who wish to demonstrate new products or techniques featuring their products. Demonstration space must be prearranged, so please contact us as soon as possible.
What time can I set up and take down?
Contact us for specific details. In general, paid vendors (not free club tables) may be set up starting Friday, and may be on the exhibit floor from 8:00AM to 6:00PM both Saturday and Sunday.
Where can I get details on hotels, parking, airports, and public transportation?
The website of the Pasadena Convention Center has loads of useful information regarding hotels, parking, airports, public transportation, and other visitor information.
Just as an FYI, the Sheraton is the closest hotel as it shares the same complex as the Convention Center.
Please be aware that any arrangements you make for hotels, transportation, and dining are your own. PATS and RTMC, Inc. are not responsible for them in any way.
What is available in the way of food and restaurants?
There is a snack bar at PATS inside the exhibition hall. In addition, the Convention Center is within walking distance of hundreds of restaurants in downtown and Old Town Pasadena – many of them are right across the street at the Paseo Colorado outdoor mall.
Are there any nearby facilities for camping and/or RVs?
Not really. There are no facilities on the Convention Center grounds. The nearest camping/RV facility appears to be a KOA campground in Pomona, about 30 miles away. The address is 2200 N. White Ave., Pomona, CA, 91768. Their phone number is (909) 593-8915.
Will there be a swapmeet?
Sorry, no. The facilities at the Convention Center are not conducive to such an effort. You'll have to hold out until the RTMC Astronomy Expo in May to satisfy your flea market hunger.
Who puts on PATS?
PATS is an RTMC, Inc. event. RTMC, Inc. consists of a dozen or so volunteer board members as well as a handful of additional volunteers. It is dedicated to growing the hobby of astronomy, whether that means providing events for seasoned astronomy hobbyists or introducing it to the general public. The group meets periodically throughout the year to plan and produce its two main events: The RTMC Astronomy Expo (held over Memorial Day weekend in Big Bear) and the Pacific Astronomy & Telescope Show. RTMC, Inc. also funds the Holmes Grant program, which aims to further outreach efforts among astronomical groups. RTMC, Inc. is a non-profit charitable organization and corporation under the laws of the state of California.
PATS is supported by its sponsors, vendors, and attendees.
While members of the Riverside Astronomical Society (and other clubs) are typically active volunteers at PATS, it is not an RAS event.
Will there still be an RTMC Astronomy Expo?
Yes. PATS is not meant to replace the RTMC Astronomy Expo. RTMC will continue to be held each Spring in Big Bear. It provides a rural setting with dark skies where attendees can camp, hike, observe, listen to lectures, partake in seminars, and find deals via vendors and the swapmeet.
How do I volunteer to help at PATS?
Generally, you should contact the PATS representative in your club. If your club is not participating in the discounted ticket sales program or you're not affiliated with a participating organization, you may contact us to inquire about volunteer opportunities. It should be noted that PATS does not require as many volunteers as the RTMC Astronomy Expo, since the venue itself is better staffed.
Are there door prizes at PATS?
Some vendors have a single raffle, while others might have a few over the course of the weekend. In addition, we will set aside a time both Saturday and Sunday for door prizes. Specific times are not known presently.

This is a typical early appearance of a poison ivy rash, located on the leg. These early lesions consist of multiple small blisters, often in a line where the skin has brushed against the poison ivy plant. The rash is caused by skin contact with the oily sap (resin) of these plants. The oily resin usually enters the skin rapidly, and is seldom transferred from person to person. The rash is not caused by the fluid from the blisters. Thus, once the person has washed the oil off the skin, the rash is usually not contagious.

Bruce Boyer in the Wall Street Journal
Bruce Boyer, one of the best voices we have in men's clothing and style, was recently interviewed in the Wall Street Journal:
It is both delusional and stupid to think that clothes don't really matter and we should all wear whatever we want. Most people don't take clothing seriously enough, but whether we should or not, clothes do talk to us and we make decisions based on people's appearances.
On the other hand, there are people, particularly in the fashion industry, who take clothing too seriously. We aren't doing biomedical research or working on some nuclear collider. Clothing is not everything in life and it won't solve problems of famine and overpopulation. It's a fine balance you have to strike and that's what I try to do.
I've learned a lot from bloggers. Some of the young men doing it are wonderful and know much more than I do. But what bothers me is that some of them seem to know everything about clothing except how to enjoy it. They want the latest, hippest labels and they know what all the most expensive brands are but you get the feeling that they really don't enjoy it or don't know how to wear it the way they should.
You can read the rest here.

Found January 02, 2013 on Fox Sports Kansas City:
PLAYERS: Andy Reid, Clark Hunt, Romeo Crennel, Scott Pioli, Dirk Koetter, Brian Schottenheimer, Marty Schottenheimer, Sean Payton, Drew Brees, Jeff Fisher
TEAMS: Philadelphia Eagles, Arizona Cardinals, Kansas City Chiefs, Washington Redskins, New Orleans Saints, St. Louis Rams
TEAMS: Philadelphia Eagles, Arizona Cardinals, Kansas City Chiefs, Washington Redskins, New Orleans Saints, St. Louis Rams
KANSAS CITY, Mo. Reports that fired Philadelphia Eagles head coach Andy Reid will be the next Arizona Cardinals coach appear a bit premature. Multiple reports have surfaced that Reid will meet with the Chiefs today in Philadelphia to discuss the Kansas City head-coaching vacancy created when owner Clark Hunt fired Romeo Crennel on Monday. It is uncertain whether both Hunt and general manager Scott Pioli will be on hand to meet with Reid. Hunt indicated Monday that he would be in direct charge of hiring the team's next head coach, though reportedly both he and Pioli met with Falcons offensive coordinator Dirk Koetter on Tuesday in Atlanta. However Koetter, according to FOXSports.com, has since signed a contract extension to stay with the Falcons through the 2013 season. The Chiefs also reportedly interviewed Falcons special teams coach Keith Armstrong on Tuesday, which would have satisfied the NFL's "Rooney Rule," which requires at least one minority candidate to be considered for each head-coaching opening. The Chiefs have not confirmed any reported interviews. Reid, according to USA Today, also is scheduled to meet with the Cardinals in Arizona on Thursday. It had been reported Tuesday by multiple media outlets that Reid was virtually a slam dunk to become the next Cardinals coach. But Arizona vice president of media relations Mark Dalton has since tweeted, "I'm 99 sure that reports of a deal being 95 done are 100 incorrect." Hunt also indicated on Monday that he would be interested in interviewing former NFL head coaches, present college head coaches and present NFL coordinators. Two coordinator names that may surface in the coming days or weeks are New Orleans Saints offensive coordinator Pete Carmichael, Jr., and St. Louis Rams offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer. Hunt has sought advice from former Chiefs coach Marty Schottenheimer in the past few months, which could mean someone from Schottenhiemer's coaching tree could get an interview. Carmichael worked for Schottenheimer for one season with the Washington Redskins in 2001, and also spent four seasons on Schottenheimer's staff in San Diego before joining Sean Payton with the Saints. Brian Schottenheimer worked with his father in Kansas City, Washington and San Diego, where he served as Drew Brees' quarterbacks coach. Rams head coach Jeff Fisher said last month he believes Brian is ready to take the next step in coaching. "He's ready to handle the job and he's capable," Fisher told reporters in St. Louis. "I think he'd do a great job at it. Certainly, he's been around the game for a long time. He's got a great pedigree, and this is the time of the year when people start throwing names out there."

We started publishing articles around the year 2003. At first we covered the UFO phenomena and we have been researching Unexplainable Topics for more than a decade before we finally realized we were studying demonics and the fallen angels. Once we came to that conclusion- we quickly understood that the Christian Bible and Jesus Christ is the ultimate truth.
Owners Statement:
I, James McElwee, declare myself a follower and devote my loyalties to Jesus Christ who indeed walked in the flesh and sits at the right hand of god. I fully believe Jesus Christ died for our sins, was buried, and resurrected. I beg everyone who is unsure of this to do diligent research into this, and by gods mercy- I pray everyone who reads this comes to the same conclusion.
God Bless.

PALM SPRINGS — Caesars World Inc. unveiled plans Monday to build a $25-million Indian gambling casino in this community's struggling downtown, positioning itself as the prime player in bringing Las Vegas-style gambling to Southern California.
The 80,000-square-foot facility will be built on land owned by the Agua Caliente band of Cahuilla Indians--on whose checkerboard reservation half of the city is situated. The complex will feature the casino, restaurants, retail shops and entertainment venues.

A controlled agricultural burn is responsible for the smoke rising from near downtown Macon.
Macon-Bibb County fire crews scrambled to find the source of the heavy plume rising from the industrial sector shortly after 10:30 a.m.
Trucks tracked the blaze from sightings reported from Brosnan Yard, the Eisenhower Parkway extension, Ackerman's and Cox Cafe.
Norfolk Southern railroad reported a blaze between a tree line and a creek, but firefighters could not gain access.
The Georgia Forestry Commission was notified of the burn, which appeared to be tapering off after 11 a.m.

Happy New Year! Can you believe it's already 2012?
With each new year, many of us out there make new resolutions. Some may argue that you don't need a certain day of the year to decide to make a change, but what better day than today? It's a fresh start right?
We want to know what your resolution(s) is/are. Did you decide that it's time to join a gym? Maybe you want to try a new food? Or maybe you want to stay in contact with your family better?
Whatever it is, we want to know, so please share with us in the comments section.
In the meantime, here are what some of us Patch editors resolved:
, associate local editor: "I want to start believing in myself more. I'm my own biggest critic and I need to quit sweating the small stuff!"
, Beachwood Patch editor: "I resolve to live consciously — taking time to make decisions that are best for my well-being and for those around me, from what I put in my body to how much time I spend in front of my laptop to whether I should tell that car that cut me off exactly what I think of his mother."
, Hillcrest Patch editor: "I plan to continue a conscious effort to try and relax, take setbacks in stride and take steps to better manage stress."
, Lakewood Patch editor: "My resolution last year was to smoke a tobacco pipe. This year, I think I will quit."
, Stow Patch editor: "My resolution is to stay in better touch with my friends."
, Cleveland Heights Patch editor: "To actually use my Cleveland Heights Community Center pass on a regular basis."
, Mentor Patch editor: "My resolution is to write more happy news. I certainly don't intend to ignore bad news, but it never hurts to spread a little sunshine either."
, associate regional editor: "My new year's resolution is to maintain my sense of humor."
, North Canton Patch editor: "I'd like to learn how to knit."
, Strongsville Patch editor: "I want to have more fun in the new year. I need to remember there's more to life than checking things off a to-do list!"
, Twinsburg Patch editor: "While I don't usually do this, I would like to be more generous with my time, giving it to more worthy causes and to help others."
, Avon Lake Patch editor: "This year it's going to be to continue running five days a week. Or until my right knee goes. Then I'll move to backgammon."

"The more I study mythology and folklore, the more I come to the same
conclusion that people from every age of this world have come to: myths are the
most precious treasures bequeathed to us by generations long past. It has become
very fashionable to look down on mythology and other narratives that feature elements
that are seen as "supernatural" or which border on the "irrational" as though they represent
failings of human reason in the face of the unknown, but it is my opinion that the true "failing"
is found in people who cannot think multi-dimensionally about the things they experience."

Mineral Wells Index
By TONY EIERDAM
It will simply take some time for the Mineral Wells Lady Rams volleyball team.
With just two starters returning and none on the front row, Lady Rams head coach Taylor Eggleston used a variety of combinations, particularly on the front row, to find out which players work best together.
The coach wants to use the first month of the season – which includes three tournaments, a dual and five matches – to find the best combination knowing a match may be sacrificed in order to gain a better understanding of her personnel.
Tuesday night in the season opener against Millsap at the MWHS gym, Eggleston found out there is still a lot of work to be done before she announces who her starters will be once district play arrives in September.
Paced by an aggressive front row, Millsap defeated the Lady Rams, 25-21, 19-25, 25-20, 25-21 as Lady Bulldogs hitters Katie Rich and Hannah Hobson combined for 21 kills.
Rich led all hitters with 13 kills, with Hobson adding eight. Hobson also recorded a pair of blocks.
"This win is huge for us," Millsap head coach Kaycee Venecamp said. "It is a good way to start our season, and we came out playing aggressively. We are young overall, but the young players are not afraid to play aggressively.
"Katie is our senior middle, and she was on. Courtney Coker is doing a great job setting up the hitters, and she is doing big things for us."
Outside hitter Scarlett Eaton, a newcomer to varsity, led the Lady Rams with eight kills.
"This is why we have a pre-district season," Eggleston said. "This was just one match, and we need to move in the right direction. I take the blame in some parts, but at the same time our girls have to have the desire to get out there and find themselves a role on this team."
Eggleston did see some positives during the match.
"I felt like there was some high points, but I also saw a lot of mental mistakes that turned into points for (Millsap)," she said. "We have a lot to work on. This is a rebuilding year, and I have to find the combination that works together.
"I told the girls there are spots that are open, and I need people to step up and into those roles."
Eggleston was pleasantly surprised with Eaton, the most consistent MWHS hitter on Tuesday. She was also pleased with senior hitter Ashlynn Robinson, who has dealt with leg injuries all through high school but is healthy now.
"Ashlynn did really well on timing on high sets in the middle," Eggleston said."She also got (two) blocks from the middle.
"Sydney's (Vasquez) serves were excellent, and Scarlett definitely surprised me. She did a good job and kept us in every game with timely kills. That was a good surprise."
The Lady Rams jumped out to a 10-4 lead in game one, but Millsap came back with a 10-4 run of its own to square the opener.
The lead changed hands four times and was tied on five occasions, the fifth making the score 20-20.
Millsap led 22-21 before a kill by Rich brought the opener to game point. MWHS followed with consecutive return errors as the Lady Bulldogs took game one.
A pair of aces by senior libero Bethany Allen and a kill by Robinson gave the Lady Rams a quick 5-2 lead in game two. MWHS extended its lead to 11-5, but just like in game two, the Lady Bulldogs rallied to tie the score at 14-14 thanks in part by three consecutive kills by Hobson to close a 12-9 run.
With the Lady Rams leading 20-18, varsity newcomer Sydney Vasquez served consecutive aces to increase the MWHS advantage to 22-18. Millsap closed the game with two return errors and a service error as the Lady Rams squared the match with a six-point win.
Millsap never trailed in game three. The Lady Bulldogs raced out to a 5-1 lead and built a 23-11 cushion. But the never-say-die Lady Rams came back with seven consecutive points – thanks in part to five Millsap return errors and helped by another ace from Vasquez and a kill from Bailey Simonton – to cut the Lady Bulldogs' lead to 23-18.
However, a Lady Rams' return error brought the contest to game point, and three rallies later a MWHS service error gave Millsap the point it needed to seal the contest.
Game four was a seesaw affair that saw seven lead changes before settling at 21-21. Millsap's front row went to work from there.
Rich had a pair of kills, and Hobson, off a pinpoint cross-court feed from Coker, added a stopper to give the Lady Bulldogs a 24-21 lead and bring the game to match point.
On the ensuing rally, MWHS was charged with a double-hit violation that ended the match.
Eggleston said the team will move forward and try to correct mistakes.
"I am ready for it, and I think they will be ready for challenges," Eggleston said. "The challenge will come again this weekend at the Boswell tournament where we will be the only Class 3A team there.
"The tournament will be tough, but it will make us stronger."

Yeah, after "dropping" to .353. Mauer goes on a .480 tear to get him up to .380 on the year. I don't think he keeps it up, but wow can this dude hit.

August 1, 2014
Nick Tremps made sure the Greene Hills Invitational Title stayed in the hands of a Cavalier.
The Virginia freshman shot a final round 70 Sunday to win the 32nd Annual Tournament at the Greene Hills Golf Club in Stanardsville.
Fellow Cavalier David Pastore won the Invitational last year.
Tremps came into the day one shot behind leader Mikey Moyers, a Virginia Tech senior and William Monroe alum. Tremps stumbled a bit on the front nine but made up ground by shooting four-under on the back half.
"End up shooting four-under on the back and I knew that kind of put me in a good place. I actually didn't know I won until I walked outside (the clubhouse) to check. It was a good feeling."
Moyers meanwhile finished in a four-way tie for second with Chad Jones, Keith Decker and last year's City Champion, Phil Mahone.
"I was just trying to play my own game and stay there. Hit a few shots coming in and rolled a few putts in so it was good," Tremps said.

WALTHAM, Mass. – World Champion gymnast Aly Raisman brought a message of hope and inspiration to about 20 eating disorder patients at Walden Behavioral Care's residential treatment facility today, acting in her new role as spokesperson for the hospital.
Raisman, who is a two-time gold medalist, World Champion and USA Gymnastics Team Captain told the patients to think positively and have confidence in themselves.
"When I wake up in the morning and look in the mirror, I ask myself, 'What's good about today?' instead of beating myself up," she told patients at Walden Place, which provides adolescents and adults in recovery with a home-like setting.
While she has always had confidence in herself, she said that on some days she feels more confident than others.
"I'm human," she said. "Everyone struggles with insecurities. That's normal."
Raisman said she decided to work with Walden because," I hope to be able to inspire men and women to be happy with who you are and to embrace who you are. You have to believe in yourself."
While she does not have an eating disorder, she's known people who do, and "You see it in everyday life. It's eye opening and makes me want to help out."
She encouraged the patients at Walden Place to accept their bodies as they are.
"No one looks at you the way you look at yourself," she said. "You're harder on yourself than anyone else will be."
Raisman was captain of the gold medal-winning U.S. women's gymnastics team in 2012, and won the United States' first ever gold medal on the floor exercise and also earned a bronze medal on the balance beam. The Needham native also appeared on "Dancing with the Stars," making it to the finals of season 16, and has recently returned to the gym for fulltime training.
She was chosen as spokesperson because of her positive perspective on self esteem and body image, emphasis on living a healthy and active lifestyle, and interest and passion in encouraging people to be confident and make smart, healthy choices. She will make appearances at Walden events, both for patients and for the public, in addition to videotaping public service announcements and help educate the public about the dangers of eating disorders by promoting Walden's School-Based Eating Disorder Prevention Program.
"As a successful gymnast and dancer, Aly can discuss body image issues in a manner that will reach and inspire our patients, while also serving as a role model," said Walden President and CEO Stuart Koman. "As a young woman who has known people with eating disorders, she also has a unique ability to provide a positive message to adolescents about how to stay healthy and avoid developing an eating disorder. She has achieved much as an athlete and she will help us achieve a great deal as our spokesperson."
Walden Behavioral Care is one of the country's leading hospitals for treating eating disorders, including anorexia, bulimia and binge-eating disorder. The Walden Center for Research and Education is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization created by Walden to discover effective treatments for eating disorders, decrease the stigma around mental illness, provide subsidized patient care to save lives, and decrease the number of people who suffer from eating disorders.

To the Editor:
When asked about Iowans too poor to afford health insurance, Governor Branstad talks about health care savings accounts, increasing co-pays, and people drinking at open bars at weddings.
Governor, making health care more expensive won't help people who can't afford it in the first place.
Iowa's Governor has no idea what it is like to be unemployed or to work for the minimum wage.
He's been on the state payroll almost all of his adult life. His family has never had to live without health insurance. Those are the facts.
While it's not the Governor's fault that he has no idea what it is like to live in poverty, it is his fault when he refuses to help Iowans who do.
I wish Governor Branstad heard the testimony I've heard from Iowans living without insurance. One retired Iowa teacher broke down in tears while describing her adult daughter's life without mental health care.
Governor Branstad doesn't know these people. They aren't foreign business investors. They aren't campaign contributors. And they don't live in fancy houses on the west side of Des Moines.
But these people are still Iowans and Governor Branstad is just as much their governor as the rich investors and business people that surround him.
Let me tell you the story of one of these people, someone I know very, very well.
As a young woman in her mid-twenties, she was going through a difficult time. She was getting divorced, and she didn't have much money.
She lived in a small Iowa town. No matter how hard she tried, the only job she could find was a part time job.
She was able to make ends meet, but just barely. After paying for rent, gas, and groceries, there was nothing left.
