Prayer Requests – Part 3

Pray for my family to be saved.
I will pray for you and for your family, Jason.
Prayers are with you Jason and trust that no matter what it appears to be, your family is in God's hands and everything will ultimately be alright.
I seek prayers of solace as I deal with approaching anniversary of my mother's death, whose death hit me extremely hard as she was everything to me and prior to her death, I could not imagine a world without her in it. Grief has had a stronghold on me that appeared to be easing but seems to intensifying as October (the month when she passed) approaches. Thanks for your prayers.
I just found out. I am going to be a Grand Uncle. I want a prayer for my niece.
I have a lot health issues and have had 5 hospital stays that included 2 major surgeries and totaled about 65 days in the hospital this year so far. Everything is pretty much a struggle for me, but I have been so concerned with the direction our country has been going in I try to do whatever I can to make a difference.
I face a big challenge today as I will be heading to the polls in a few hours. I am honored to have been selected by the National Romney Campaign Headquarters to serve on their Election Day Task Force and be part of history as a Project ORCA team member. This will require me to be at an assigned precinct before they open and not leave until the last vote has been cast. It will be both physically and mentally challenging to me. I am convinced that this work is important to help insure a Romney victory…and hopefully secure the slow and arduous return to our founding principles. That is why I am pushing myself beyond my limits. I can not even sleep and my alarm is set to go off in 3 hours.
Please, if you could, pray that I will have the strength, fortitude and mental clarity to fulfill my assignment and successfully implement the elements of Project Orca without it taking too much of a toll on my health. I hope this doesn't sound selfish or petty…but this election seems pivitol to the survival of our country as a free nation and Project ORCA will play a critical role in it. Thank you!
Has anyone seen Little Laughter lately? She mentioned that her family is dealing with some pretty serious legal problems regarding her son. Her family has been through a lot over the years, incuding the loss of a son. Please keep her and her family in your prayers.
I am here Self; Thank you so very much for your thoughts and prayers. We went back to court yesterday (3rd time). The officer was not there again. They called to get him out of bed and he was supposedly coming. Instead, a different ADA took over and the case was postponed again until late Feb. We just want the judge to hear the case, as we believe the facts will justify a dismissal. We found out also that the attorney for the family withdrew from their wrongful death suit. (no assests, and our state is a contributory negligence state. Meaning if the driver of the other car was just 1% contributing to the wreck, no money shall be paid.) As I stated before, the driver of the other car was 16 and driving illegally. (No, she was not cited by the officer). She also pulled out in front of my son and stopped on a dime. My son is not doing well. Last week he quietly told me he "no longer wants to be 'here.'" Not something a parent wants to hear from their child. Thanks to all who would remember my son in their prayers. He is a good kid who loves his family more than anything. He has spent 2 of his summers in China, teaching English to Korean and Chinese kids while also witnessing. He does this with a team from the International Board of Missions. He is always the youngest on the team by at least 20 years. They stay in a slum part of town, in old dorms with the bare essentials. I encourage him to remember his path, search for God's plan in his life, and fight like the dickens! Thank you again!
♥ I am so glad to hear from you, Little Laughter. Thank you for sharing your son's story. You and your family have been in my thoughts and prayers daily. Our Lord never fails us if we just trust him and his plan for us. Please let your son know that he has lots of Christian people praying for him. May you and your family be surrounded by God's precious love during this trying time. ♥
"Be still……and know…… that I AM GOD…" Ps 46:10
Anwtex, That is my son's favorite verse. It is hanging on a wall in his room. Thank you all for your kind words and sympathy. I never dreamed we would be wrapped up in a court battle; I was ignorant of the system and how easily one could find themselves arrested when the facts support your innocence. DA tells our attorney he won't be charging because it was an accident; then is hammered by the media and the family to make an arrest, and PRESTO- my son is charged w/ a misdemeanor death by vehicle. Turns himself in, with his attorney, and is booked, mugshot, finger printed,handcuffed, and put into the back of a patrol car. Perp walked across the street to the courthouse in handcuffs. We have paid $10,000 in attorney fees, shown up at the ch 3 times, cop doesn't show. Have to go back in Feb., NO Discovery given, endured mnths of hateful speechin print and online; my son is depressed. We are all stressed. Dont venture out at all…I know why I sympathize so much with the Zimmerman family, and they are enduring national focus and a much worse charge. I tell my son that each struggle, each suffering, God will use for his benefit and for God's glory. Still, the weight of the stress often takes my breath away and I feel like I am going to smother. Please keep us in your prayers. Thank you all so much!
I do not call on him often, but here I offer a prayer to St. Jude in behalf of George H.W. Bush :
O most holy apostle, Saint Jude, faithful servant and friend of Jesus, the Church honoureth and invoketh thee universally, as the patron of hopeless cases, and of things almost despaired of.
Pray for me, who am so miserable. Make use, I implore thee, of that particular privilege accorded to thee, to bring visible and speedy help where help was almost despaired of.
Come to mine assistance in this great need, that I may receive the consolation and succor of Heaven in all my necessities, tribulations, and sufferings, particularly that George H. W. Bush might recover fully from his illness and that I may praise God with thee and all the elect throughout eternity.
I promise thee, O blessed Jude, to be ever mindful of this great favour, to always honour thee as my special and powerful patron, and to gratefully encourage devotion to thee.
May I make a request for prayers for Lawrence Auster? A blog-friend of his called Kristor is arranging a "mass intercessory prayer" for him this coming Sunday, 1/13/13, from 5-6 pm local time for anyone gracious and merciful enough to pray for him.
Lovely article at this link, about how prayer had worked in the case of Kristor's son. (It moved me to tears):
http://orthosphere.org/2013/01/06/a-prayer-for-lawrence-auster/My sincerest thanks to all who contribute your efforts!!!
I left you a reply yesterday, but I do not see it here. Just wanted you to know that I did pray for Lawrence Auster.
I am embarrassed and ashamed. I must ask for the prayers of the righteous saints. I am struggling with alcoholism to the point of near suicide. I am a very high (currently) functioning alcoholic, but I see that diminishing daily. I have two young children and a husband. The fear of The Lord and my family keeps me going, but I am more desperate every day. Please pray. I do not want to be this way and desire to repent and follow The Lord. Please, please pray for me.
Good Morning All.
I have asked for prayers for my son who has been charged with Criminal Death by Motor Vehicle and wanted to update everyone and ask for your prayers again. Our last court date was Nov 29. We go to court again this week on Thursday. According to our attorney (whom I don't entirely trust) he spoke to the ADA handling the case. It sounded as though that ADA hadn't even looked at the evidence, which doesn't surprise me, as I have discovered these lawyers do all of their work the day of, in a little back room. The ADA apparently told our att that he agreed our son could not have been going more than 15mph at the time of the accident. He also said he agreed the teenaged girl (driving w/o a license) likely did pull out in front of him and stop on a dime. Our att mentioned to our son that "worst case scenerio, the family shows up and lets the DA know they don't want a dismissal; then they would offer our son a plea of an infraction (ticket). I told my son to stand firm and accept no plea of any kind. That the family is the problem of the DA, not his.
We want the judge to hear the case if the ADA does not dismiss. Please pray that our son is vendicated this Thursday; pray that he is then able to deal with the grief and phsycological issues he has had to push back in order to confront these charges for the last 9 months. Pray that God will give him a glimpse of His plans and show him what He would have him to do for our Lord in his own personal life. Thank you for your prayers.-
Your son and you are in my thoughts & prayers Lil Laughter; please trust in the power of prayer and positive thinking to see you all through this ordeal.
Thank you both so very much!!! You have no idea how much it means to me to believe that others are praying for my son!! This has been such a nightmare for all of us. I never had a full understanding of the system prior to being thrust into it. I now understand the weight of over charging. I understand that burden all too well. They make a charge that they can't make stick. They drain you of your finances and emotional well being. Drag it out until you are exhausted, both emotionally and finacially. Then they throw in a plea offer. Why in the world would you give them that gift if you are innocent? Nope. We will stand and fight. Make the judge hear the case. Rule as she sees fit, then appeal if the ruling is guilty. We will force the state to go before a jury if the judge says guilty.
Refresher> Son was not speeding, rather, he was going at least 10 miles under the limit prior to accident. DID reduce speed prior to impact.
> Was NOT using a cell phone in any manner. Phone was found by first responder in the bottom of his bag.
>Was NOT under the infulence of anything.
> Witness behind him did not see break lights on the car in front of him just before he hit them.
> Car in front pulled out from a side road and stopped. Driver was 16 and not licesned to drive.
> Deceased was not wearing a seatbelt and was leaning forward from the back seat into the front.
But they charged my son with Criminal Death by Motor Vehicle. -
Thank you so much. MIMI- I know of your own trials and suffering and my prayers are with you as well.
JFP- Thank you for your prayers. I too will be praying for your daughter and your family. Our faith is strong.
My prayer is for the person that calls himself Sundance….I pray that the lord heal your hateful racist heart before it destroys you. Just by your recent post its becoming obvious that you are becoming consumed by hatred. I pray for God to help you. Amen
Seems to me that if you truly were worried about sundance you would just simply pray for him and not come the the prayer request section and post with a clear intent of provoking a response. Just my 2 cents for what it's worth.
Surrealdreamer: If you wont to worry about someones soul start by looking in the mirror because alot of people who live in glass houses love to throw rocks.
ZMike, I pray God holds you tight in His grip. His plans for you are perfect. I will lift you up in my prayers, that he provide you with an even better job. Until then, remember that He gives us everything we need by His grace.
The man in the hole and his family:

Please Put PatriotUSA on the prayer list he/she had there third spinal fusion a couple of days ago.
Please pray for my Aunt Thelma, 91 years old in Athens Ohio. She fell and broke her hip
Sunday, and has had hip replacement surgery. Thank you all.-
Take care of her David and God Bless ….
Bless her.
True story: As you know, I was really disappointed in my long job search, and today was probably the worst I have felt — I weep at the oddest times, don't want to go ouside, and take no pleasure in even basic things. I was going to come here and ask for prayers again, and then noticed the other intentions and requests since I last posted. I was going to answer these before posting my own request, when the phone rang. Another even more excellent job lead! You guys get results. Will keep you posted.
So no request from me, except for His blessing on you for your faith and extraordinary kindness, and, evidently, your most amazing prayers.
ZurichMike : I believe there is power in words….. Speak things as if they where not as they are. Everyone must experience failure to appreciate success.
I ask for prayers for my beloved nephew who left a week ago for a tour of duty in Afghanistan. We had a going away party for him where he acted brave but I know he is scared. I pray for all our service members who are put their lives on the line there and everywhere across the world.
Thank you.
School district just called me this morning after getting my final reference and said I can come and get my fingerprinting done for criminal background check, and once that clears, the half-day paper work session I can then start my new position for Community Outreach Coordinator.! Graduation in May! Life has been tough for me these last 18 months so I had to give a shout out to God for the many blessings he rains upon us!
How Great is our God!!! #excited
P.S. who says a good work ethic doesn't pay off? Subbing during my transition status wasn't what I really wanted to do but I showed up and gave it my all and the teachers and staff/admin at this school took note of that and here is my blessing
Angel : I'm so happy for you !!! Good luck on your new job and may God bless you and guide you in all that you do.
Thanks Sha.
HR guy said, "They may tell you when you report that you may not have to fingerprint since you are currently working as a sub for the system" My response, no worries, I'll just give up the fingers if they do. LOL I have done it enough times to know it will be all right.God bless
correction: don't for do.
I am requesting prayer regarding the non-profit that my daughter and I are starting. To make a long story short, we were sent to St. Jude when she was 10 because of a mass in her brain. She underwent a very dangerous surgery but thankfully the mass was not cancer and she recovered better than we could have hoped for. She even maintained straight As that year! The whole ordeal had caused me to miss TONS of work and I was a single mother at the time. The financial downward spiral has spilled over into my married life now, as my husband and I were married in July. Rather than continuing to ask for donations, I wanted to have something to sell. We started making handmade fabric bracelets and on top of just selling them to individuals, we began offering bracelet sponsorships. $3 pays for a bracelet to be donated to a patient at St. Jude. On our last trip, we had 120 to give out! We handed many of them out in person, and I can't express the joy that we got from seeing those amazing little smiles. My daughter loved handing them out just as our little way of giving back to the community that has given us so much. We are currently working towards being able to file for official 501c3 status. We have contributed bracelets to help raise money for Relay for Life and we mail out bracelets requested for children fighting serious illnesses across the country! We are open about our faith but we are not pushy. While we pray for every child we come in contact with, we are not a strictly Christian group in the sense that we serve all children equally regardless of religious labels. I pray that we can get the program off the ground so that we can participate in more fundraising efforts for cancer research as well as other illnesses treated by St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. It would also allow us to help prepare for my daughter's future education. She is extremely smart and driven, and she is now considering going into neurosurgery or neurological research. Being co-founder of this project will be an awesome item on her educational resume. She is a very loving girl who wants to devote her life to helping and serving others. We have an amazing testimony now and, though it was difficult, we have received so many unexpected blessings through the process. Please pray for our success for the benefit of the children and for my daughter. Please pray that word will spread. I want my hands to be blistered from making bracelets to fill orders and donation requests!!! I want to create as many smiles as we possibly can! When your child is sick, it's the small things that matter most. Please pray with us. If you would like to take a look, we are listed on Facebook under Survivor's Rainbow Accessories. Thank you for your prayer and may God bless you all!
Nikki Good luck on your business and I am so glad to hear your daughter is doing well.
Sorry I'm just now seeing your reply. Thank you so much! She is wonderful and she truly amazes me! And the purpose isn't for a business. We are raising funds to file as an official nonprofit. The only thing we will receive from the project would be compensation for time and labor. I would love to set it up so that I could pay myself a small salary and quit my job. I would LOVE to devote myself to it fulltime!
We go back to court tomorrow (6th time). Please pray for it to be the end, and that our son is vindicated. Thank you to all who have prayed for my family during this year long battle. In His Grip…
I meant to type Tuesday, rather than tomorrow.
LittleLaughter: Let me know when the charges are droped…. it's not a matter of if just when.
This is hard for me to type, but I know there of those of you who have said a prayer or more for me and my family. And some have asked me to let them know of the outcome of my son's case.
Today, we went for the bench trial. The judges in district court had changed schedules and we wound up with the worst judge possible- the one judge our attorney did not want.
It was evident from early on that he would not be favorable to our son. He didn't pay attention to anything the defense said. He looked away, flipped through papers, etc. He denied every motion. He over ruled every objection, and sustained every objection made by the prosecution.
The 16 yr old driver of the other car admitted on the stand that she did not have a license at the time of the wreck. Admitted they were using a cell phone, and stated under oath that there was something wrong with the brakes on the car she was driving. The defense attorney also read the statutes for the charges. Each one required a criminal act be committed by the person charged. No such criminal act was present, and the DA didn't even bother trying to make one up. He simply said that accident or not, a person died and the defendent caused the death. The judge disregarded the defenses request for him to please read the jury instructions for an accident. He found him guilty and sentenced him to the max. 90 days, suspended for 18 months. Thouseands of dollars in fines and restitution, a drug search and test probation (even though he admitted himself there was no drugs or alcohol involved).
My son had plans to graduate college next year and enlist in the Navy Officer's Training program. He cannot do that now. His life has been ruined, sacrificed to please a family who is grieving, by a judge and DA who care nothing of facts.
We will now appeal to a trial by jury. This will take at least a year, maybe a year and a half. But we must fight on. My husband told our son, "you can stay down and hold your broken body, or you can get up and fight til the last bell rings." This is what he has chosen to do.
Thanks to all who prayed. Much love and repsect…LL-
LittleLaughter: I am so sorry to hear that….. Every bit of my being was telling me he would be found not guilty.
Standfast in Faith Written by Angel
We think that because we do not see results in our time frame , that faith in God does not work and that believing is pointless. Faith has no time limit and neither does God. If it takes one second, one day or one thousand years, we are to stand fast in faith, knowing that God's truth is in the invisible. Knowing that no matter how long, truth will prevail and it already has. The proof is In our hearts, in our soul and mind.
Never let go of the knowing that no matter what it seems like, no matter how dark it gets there is one star that will still remain lit to light the way for us all. God cannot fail us if we keep the faith. It is not easy when bills are becoming due and there are little funds to pay them, when the body is aching with pain and sick beyond what the doctors can cure, when problems have taxed us past the breaking point; when we are lonely; we cannot help but cry out with the Master of Faith,Jesus "God why has thou forsaken me?''
Believe me when I say, that when it seems like God has abandoned us the most, God is in the mix for he promised that "I will never leave you nor forsake you." We must keep the faith for truth has prevailed within us even when there are times in our complex lives we cannot see it without. There is a promise that we will see the kingdom of heaven and all it entails whether in this life or the next. Just hold on, wait and see. Don't give in and don't give up. Hold up your hands and shout hallelujah, God's truth lives on.JustfactsPlease,
Prayers for you and your family, and daughter. Remember, "tough times don't always last, but tough people do" Robert Schuller
To all,
Hold to God's promises and be encouraged that even through our most darkest moments, the light of faith will guide us and comfort us if we do not surrender our faith.
Amen -
Prayers of protection for nephew needed. He has been in Afghanistan for about a month and has been communicating daily with us through Facebook. Nothing from him the last two or three days. One of his last posts was, It's hard but I am taking one day at a time."
Thank you. Heard from him yesterday. They kind of been on lockdown last few days. He is okay except the dust, heat, and flies are getting to him. He said that he going to find a way to secretly ambush the flies. I told him good luck with that. -
In January of this year my Father moved in with us, His health and spirits are declining. He has not seen his 7 year old son in almost 4 months and he misses him dearly, Will you please pray for my fathers health, pray that his lungs improve and heart heals. I thank you for your prayers.
God Bless you all,
Never lose faith that healing is possible. As my grandmother used to say, "As long as there is life, there is hope.!
Please pray with me for God to send what we need for my daughter's education. She has been through a lot in her life, including brain surgery at the age of 10. As time goes by, I see our schools getting worse. My daughter LOVES to learn and cares a great deal about her grades. We are raising money for the costs included with homeschooling. We prayed over this issue and received a very clear answer when the DJ at a school sponsored event began playing very dirty songs and most of the children knew all the words and were dancing in ways that made me blush! Please pray with me that God will send us what we need to make this happen. This will enable me to shield her from the children and staff with no morals. I can shield her from the PC political agenda, etc. We plan to do homeschooling for a couple of years and then get her into the magnet high school where the kids will be there because they want to be and because they care about their education. We appreciate each and every prayer!!!
A mother is one who loves
So many of us feel like a motherless child on mothers' day because we may not have known the love of our biological mothers. Love may not have come from those who gave birth to us but whoever, extended love to you in the form of compassion, kindness, understanding, warmth, and giving is your mother. You can honor, treasure them just as surely as if they had given birth you. For a mother is anyone who opens their heart and allows the love of God to shine through. And there is someone in your life who has done that or you could not have made it through. No one is without a mother. Thank that someone who has taken time to give you a smile when you were down in the dumps. Embrace that someone who has believed in you when you could not believe in yourself. Love that someone who never gives up on you no matter what you do. Anyone who has loved you is a mother and deserves a bow from you on Mother's day. A mother is the most precious thing no matter what form s/he may take, because the expression of love through her/him is the closet thing to God that we are going to get on Earth.

Happy Mother's Day to all those who love and nurture.
Thank you Angel. I have a loving and wonderful mother who taught me to love God first. If we do that, then we will be able to face even the most difficult struggles in our lives, by trusting in Him. Read Proverbs 31; it is about the virtuous wife and mother. Her virtues are because she feared the Lord and put Him first. These virtues can be applied to each of us, whether we are married with children, single, or childless. She extended her hand to the needy and to the poor. Needy could be a person who is without a mother. Your post, combined with this scripture,have encouraged me to seek out someone who needs a mother in their life, and to extend my hand to them. Have a blessed day, Angel.
The anthem of my life; "Love said not so. Even with the odds against me, Love showed me, love said not so. Keep on holding on. Love said not so. Tell the world it's love everlasting, hope everlasting, joy everlasting."
Getting my praise on before making coffee and getting to the J.O.B. Everyone, please have a blessed, beautiful day. God is in control.
Sometimes, God sends us little signs to stay encouraged that he still sits on the throne and is working it out. Recognize them for what they are and praise him for that instead of waiting for the big things to happen. Yes, Jesus said, "if you say to this mountain be moved, it will be moved." He didn't say that the mountain will be moved all at once. With daily acts of faith moment, by moment, the mountain of adversity will crumble bit by bit, piece by piece.
I bought a mustard seed necklace yesterday for myself. It is a reminder to me that the verse from Matthew tells us that our faith can move mountains. Thank you for your encouraging words of Praise, Angel. May God bless you richly.
May God also bless you and he is even when we cannot see it. "The faith of a mustard seed."
We can do this thing called life if we do not let what is going on in our life do us in because it gets a bit rough sometimes. "There is something to the saying, when the going gets tough, the tough get going." Hard times are but an invitation to go within and dig a little deeper for the strength to deal with hard times that come knocking on our door.
AngelPrayers of light and love to all.
Wings of God's Promises
I saw a butterfly today
And I hope with all my might
The butterfly flew near me
On the wings of God promises
To tell me
While I cry,
Don't despair.
Though you seem stuck in a world
Where only darkness abides,
You are discovering your inner wings
And one day soon
You will them spread them
And take flight
To Fly high.
On the wings of God's Promises
Just As I.

Light and love to all.
The Garden of Growth and Change
Who am I to judge and condemn another wo/man stumbles and faults? Am I that arrogant to think I know what growth should like and the mistakes one is allowed to make on the path to it?? Nah, I am only a human who understands as I too have made many mistakes on the path to growth and will make more. If we already knew it all, and were already perfect, there wouldn't be mistakes as there would be no humans. Only God is beyond imperfection and in his perfect love for us, he says, all is forgiven, Learn from it and try again. I concur with God. Today, look upon others without judgment and see them as the seed of God that needs the messy process of growth to bloom into the flower of God's love. It takes the sunshine and the rain for the flower to bloom. Give the rain of your tears for the pain of the sorrows we all endure while growing through the consequences of our mistakes and the sunshine of hope that the ultimate good will come out it. It would be better for all of us if we put our judgments on ice as often as we can as we toil in the Garden of growth and change #HappyGrowing.Angel
"I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me."
I quit smoking for the first time years ago when my kids were little and I realized I didn't want to model that behavior for them so I quite cold turkey. I endured so much stress in the years after quitting but I didn't waiver in my resolve until I suffered the lost of a woman who I loved more than words can say over a year ago.
I never been a real drinker so that was not an option nor have I ever been thrilled with taking prescription drugs like anti-depressants so I returned to habit I gave up.
I celebrate today being 7-days cigarette free, cold-turkey again. Not for my kids this time, but for me as I want to start by jogging and riding my bike and living life to the fullest as my Grana would want me to. I got a ways to go as I still crave a cigarette but "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." One day at a time.
Thank you God for giving me another chance.
correction: "by" should be back and insert again after bike.
Please pray for my nephew. He had an accident a month ago in which he fractured his skull. He bled from his ears for days, and was leaking spinal fluid. He is home now and the bleeding and leakage have stopped. However, he continues to have severe headaches, nausea, and some vomiting. He has no sense of smell, and cannot hear from one ear. He is a special kid- has mild autism. I ask for prayers for his mom and dad, too. They have had to suffer through so much. Thanks to all of my CTH friends for your prayers. <
Lord I pray this birthday prayer. I pray that you remove the barriers of all forms between Will and I. I pray that you open our hearts, minds, thoughts, and prayers to bring love, care and respect in our every interaction with each other. I pray that our commitment is renewed and our bond becomes stronger than ever. Lord I am in love with him and he is in love with me. We are at that critical moment where we need to grab hold of each other with both hands, and know that we are going to be together no matter what. Let our family be strong. In Jesus name, I pray. Amen.
I am praying for my husbands infection to heal, for my "baby" brother to get the job he's worked so hard for, for my son to feel better about himself and my daughter to do well in school. Amen.
A friend is in ICU and has been there for over a week.
He is in a coma (induced) and is on life support.
He is also on dialysis.
He went in simply to have a cyst removed from a vertebrae on his neck.
After receiving an epidural his body shut down. He is paralyzed from the neck down. (Some of) His organs stopped working.
Please add this very kind gentleman to your prayers.-
I visited my friend on Saturday. He is not in a coma (info was incorrect) but everything else is as stated. Despite tubes, braces, machines, etc. he looked pretty good.
I will pray for him Josh. God bless you for loving your friend so much and for taking time to pray for him and to ask others to pray as well. I pray God will heal him beyond the expectations of all.
I do not know your faces, the color of your eyes, nor the sound of your voices. But I know you to be brothers and sisters in Christ, and I am grateful for you. I will pray for each one who is in need of healing, strength, and comfort. Thank you for remembering me as well.
In His Grip… -
Please pray for my son who is a drug addict! He is 35, very intelligent, & has lost his family now & job.
I am so sorry for what you are going through, Brenda. I have clients who are dealing with the same issue with their son. They moved to another state in order to be near him, hoping to help. I pray for him, and I will pray for your son. Tell your son your trust is in the Lord, and you pray for him. Live your life and walk with the Lord. I pray that God will intervene and your son will be relieved of his addiction. God bless you.
Dear Brenda, I am sorry about your son and will pray for him and your family.
There is this place called Saint Jude Retreats, located in Upstate NY. It's a big web site and I haven't checked it out recently. If I remember correctly, I think they have at home programs/packets. Also support packets for family members.

This is so insignificant in comparison to the above prayer requests, but it does worry me a lot. Hubby is going back to school for a year at age 57. I will be (extremely) hard pressed to make mortgage payments without his income, but I know it will pay off quickly after he returns next spring or summer. He is well-grounded in his faith and I pray he will be a useful witness to the kids he will be in training with. Many of them are Chinese, and I'm praying he will be able to use his experience as a way of opening the door to show them Christ's love.
My husband just graduated, Pam. He is 48. He was scared to go back to school and had some doubts about his ability to do it. He graduated with a 3.98 GPA! Immediately was promoted to a new job within his company, and he is more confindent in himself now. God was always there with us and He is still. I pray your husband is successful, and remember that God watches over the sparrow, and I know He watches me.
I am so sorry, my friends. I just have not been able to get back here to let everyone know what is going on.
I went to Cleveland Clinic and came back home last Sunday. They are going to operate on the carotid artery on Sept 5. I will be back in Cleveland on Sept 3. They seem to be the best. I spent 8 hours there the day of my appointment. Went through more tests and exhaustive update of all medical issues, etc.
Here is what I consider amazing. The dr was able to show us on the computer the whole arterial system coming from the heart and up to the carotids and seeing the difference between them, then zooming in on the blocked one. Wow. She said it appears to be almost or totally blocked. They won't know for sure until they go in and look. I said "Well, how can I be walking around and even thinking then?" She said "because you have 3 other ways for the blood to get in there."
No stroke. No tumor.
They will either clean it out if that is what is needed, or she said they will just close it off. She said if they clean it out if it is too blocked up, it might cause me more problems if the blood flow is already operating another way. That was sort of freaky.
She said I was in good shape compared to most of the people she gets. However, she also said she didn't think all my symptoms were necessarily related to the artery. That leaves me with possibly unresolved other issues. But they will have to wait.
Since I came back home, it has taken me until today to even feel well enough to come here. Every day I have tried and not been able to do it.
Meanwhile, with my family:
Son Tim (in Detroit) was doing pretty well, I thought. In last 4 days, he had another psychotic breakdown. The sick, angry part was directed at mostly me, but also my husband.
Daughter Ashley: has apparently significant thyroid issues and is supposed to be seeing a surgeon. It's highly possible they will operate. I got her an appointment with the top guys in the area at a DC hospital, but she changed it and isn't going to see one until Sept 11. Meanwhile, this morning, her boyfriend called us to say she is "suicidal". They came here, then left to go to the local mental clinic which evaluates people in crisis. Don't know what is happening yet.
Son Mickey (the one who came to us last year) is stressed and acting out. One day good and helpful, the next not. Sigh.
Husband Robert is right now stable. Got on blood pressure meds and statins. He seems to be functioning well. Thank God.
Oh, pray for all of us! Please.-
Dear Pammy,
Sometimes things may seem to get worse before they get better, for it is the healing process. I pray this is the case for you now and your family. They are blessed to have you as their mother. I pray you recover well and that others have a matriarch as fine as you!
Response to prayer! My friend, who was diagnosed with breast cancer [prayer request early August] , came out of her lumpectomy yesterday with all cancer removed, all margins clear, and no cancer in her lymph nodes. She wrote this:
Thank YOU, all of you who were praying for, and thinking of, my surgery and the results. Throughout the whole time I was there, I sensed the presence of God, the angels he has given charge over me, and I had total peace, even before I knew the outcome.
Philippians 4:6-7 says this: Don't fret or worry. Instead of worrying, pray. Let petitions and praises shape your worries into prayers, letting God know your concerns. Before you know it, a sense of God's wholeness, everything coming together for good, will come and settle you down. It's wonderful what happens when Christ displaces worry at the center of your life. (The Message)
Thank you so much to all of you who prayed.
I am so happy for your friend, and I will take her comments with me to be reading next week. When God gives that peace, there is nothing in the world to compare.
Glad to hear it. Praise God.
I would like to request prayer for myself this evening. I have been sick and in so much pain for over a week and then today I found out why. I have shingles. They are on my back near the right shoulder blade and are affecting even the nerve in my arm. The pain is almost unbearable and I am not sleeping well because of it. I would appreciate your prayers.
I am so sorry to hear that. A couple of my friends have experienced shingles, and have said how very painful it is. Will keep you in prayer, for sure.
I have never had anything so painful and I have experienced a lot of pain in my life.
Ouch! I hope you can get some meds to help you. Praying for you to sleep and have pain removed.
The pain meds are not working and I did not sleep one wink last night. I go to the doctor tomorrow and maybe he will nave something different to try. Thanks, guys for your prayers.
Then I will pray today that this doctor gets it right this time! Not sleeping combined with pain is not a good thing.
How are you doing today? Better, I hope?
HI, Pam, I have not felt like being on the computer until a couple of hours ago. Today has been tough. The doctor said I waited too long before getting diagnosed so he is not sure the anitviral drug will work. There may be some lasting nerve problems and it may have hit the central nervous system. Besides the pain in the arm and shoulder, my muscles do not want to work right in my legs and right arm and hand. I have had terrible sweats, dizziness, foggy in the brain, and felt faint. I never ever knew shingles could cause all of these complications. I encourage anyone who is over 50 to get the shingles vaccine. I wish I had. So Pam, how is everything at your household? Hope you are feeling frisky and all of your children are behaving. Your wonderful sense of humor and faith will see through all tha lies ahead. I just keep telling myself that this too shall pass.
Oh, Lord, I am so sorry. I totally understand how all these horrible symptoms feel. Fibro and Chronic Fatigue do the same kinds of things…weird symptoms coming out of nowhere. It's the working of the brain and the nervous system. When it goes haywire, anything can happen. But your body will try to correct things. I pray to God with intensity that you will heal and there will be NO damage. Sending you love….Pam
I also have the Fibro and the CFS. It's bad enough without adding anything else.
Well sister, we have a lot in common, I guess. Hang in there as best you can.
Please pray for the continued protection of the Zimmerman family and that the hate and misinformation will stop so that their lives can be restored.
They are always in my prayers. They have been through so much. I don't know how they get through all of the media lies and hate. God bless and protect them.
To my friends who have been following and praying for me and my family: a nice thing. Our Mickey, the horribly abused child/man, is upset that I am going to Cleveland for surgery. So here's his plan: give Mom a book for her birthday (looks like a good spy one) and write in the flyleaf: "See you soon, old lady." And, "I bought your coffin." LOL I told him I was going to show it to the staff at the hospital and let them feel sorry for me.
And today, he comes to my "suite" (haha…my half/floor of house with bedroom, sitting room and bathroom) and proceeds to play hide and seek, jumping out at me and scaring me. He got under the covers on my bed while my back was turned and I was talking to him. I thought he had left the room, then he pops up and I scream. Is this not the behavior of a little boy? He never got to be a little boy. Needless to say, I love it.-
He's 6'3″, a physical fitness nut, and talks in a deeeeep voice
Just keep loving him. God sent him to you. You are making a difference in his life.
How are YOU doing, girl? Hope you are feeling better.
Hi guys, just checking in. On the interstate near Youngstown, OH and just a couple of hours from Cleveland. Yesterday, two of my friends came to pray for me before we left home. We had been in the same church (Charismatic Episcopal Church), where my friend had been "ordained" a priest. But scandal erupted, and we all found out it was basically just a big carnival show. So most of the folks went to the Catholic Church, and some to Greek Orthodox. My friends did the Greek Orthodox route, and he is now an ordained deacon, not far from being ordained a priest.
Anyway, his priest gave him dispensation to perform the complete sacrament of the prayer for the sick for me. It was so marvelous and very long. I have been prayed over seven ways from Sunday! The power and presence of the Holy Spirit was tangible.
I left from that to see my spiritual director, at the abbey in VA right on the way to Cleveland. So I had a double dose in one day. God is good.
I continue my prayers for those of you in need, and ask for continued prayer for me, as I know you are already doing. Thank you. And God's blessings on all.
Pam you are lifted up. God will watch over you and your surgery.
God, please give my daughter and my family health, my country strength to recover from these horrendous years and wisdom for myself.
Amen. May God give your family peace and forgive America for their sins and lead us in restoriing our country. God Bless you.
Just an update on my condition and asking for continued prayers concerning my bout with shingles. I have experienced terrible pain in my shoulder blade and arm. Now my lips are numb and pain is shooting through my ear and head. No rash on the face yet. I feel very weak and like I am going to faint. I am confined to the bed or my recliner. No energy.
Hope and pray you are getting better…..Pam
Please pray for my husband and my kids. They are loving and supporting me in most darkest of hours.
God love them and you. Prayers for all!
Thank you. They keep me grounded.
In-valid. Persistent, nagging pain. Isolation. Petty vexation. I don't deal with these things well at all.
I take in Pam's story, jtf,p's story, now our precious txcmom too. On any other thread so bravely out there and positive. You all lift me up by your example; and Sharon and other Treepers as well, where I get just a fleeting glimpse of the crosses they bear—– Truly my burden is Light, Lord! All praise to Thee. Praise for the door Thou has opened to pasture and heart's ease…For all of us I thank you that , like children, we are invited to climb into the Lap of thy Love and know peace. In the midst of our suffering, we can rest in Trust that all will find righteous resolution, though in the smallness of our understanding we may not see how. And ease our concern for our loved ones too; that is oft the hardest of all pains; their stories and our story so intertwined we are as one, but we each have been intwined in the Greater Story which is Thy work with us. Fortify us in our awareness of Thee that we make face our trials with strength and serenity born of Trust….
God bless us and Keep us every one. -
Hey, guys. Just checking in to see how everyone is doing. Updates please? I am s l o w l y getting better. I'll take that! Today I actually had a real tiny burst of energy. I started some laundry and fixed my own lunch and went up and down the stairs 4 times already. This is a BIG DEAL for me, and I am so grateful to have that little feeling. I know to not overdo. But what a pleasure and gift to experience this thing that most people never even think of as they go through their days. It's been so long. I am trying very hard not to build expectations, since I have this crummy fibro and fatigue thing going on. But surely just common sense will say fixing the artery and blood flow will cause some improvement.
Oh, and for those of us who are not able to do a lot right now, if you've never heard of the BBC show "Call the Midwife", do yourself a favor and go find it and watch it. It's about the nurse midwives back in the late 50′s in England, who worked with clinics and doctors to help the poorer moms and families through the birth process. They would go to the homes and deliver. This show is so sweet and just, well, good. Based on actual memoirs and so full of love. Season 1 is on Netflix right now. I think PBS has been showing it.
Love to all.
Pam -
Sweet friends, catching up today on what you guys have been posting recently. Thank you for the kind messages and will be praying for all of you. I have to go back to Cleveland next week. Will see some specialist next Thurs, Oct 3. Hope to get a person to help me with the whole autoimmune, inflammation thingie. I want some info and some guidance. Then will see surgeon for followup on Fri. We're taking Ashley (daughter) and son Tim will come over by bus from Detroit. I am praying for a good family time together.
Ashley is waiting for surgery to be scheduled to remove the right thyroid lobe. Will do it sometime in Oct. I believe that God may be moving in her life in the other area of emotional disturbance. She doesn't open up very much, but I am sensing a change, maybe just a little bit. Time will tell. All I know is that if Love can do it, that love is flowing through me into her heart. I would ask for prayer for her, that her heart be opened to the Love. Same for Tim, if you can. I also sense some change but know not to get too into expectations with either one of them.
As for me, right now I'm feisty and frustrated. I guess I haven't learned enough about patience yet. I had a setback, starting last week, when pain started on right side near top of rib cage. Got worse every day until I was in agony. It was ER or family doctor, so I saw one of the doctors at my family practice yesterday. I was thinking all sorts of things – gall bladder, IBS, blah blah blah. I have finally started really eating again, since the surgery. Fruits and veggies and good stuff. But then I was getting sick! If the doctor was correct (and I surely hope he was), I apparently have a torn muscle where it attaches to rib cage. I had stopped taking so much of my pain meds and discontinued the nightly doses. So back I went, last night, on the pain meds and heating pad on my chest, and woke up this morning much better! These pain meds are the blessing and bane of my life. Without them, I have so much pain I can't function. With them, I get endless crap from the medical profession. I plan to aggressively address this issue, starting at Cleveland, then pursuing it when I get back home and feel better.
Robert (husband) goes this Friday for the painful single fiber emg test, which is the last test they can give him to validate the myasthenia gravis diagnosis. Please pray that the test isn't too hard on him. I can't go with him, but Mickey will be driving him there and back.
Other than that, why my world is just peachy! Seriously, I am very grateful for the grace God has given me and that I was able to make it until I got the carotid artery surgery. That part seems to be coming along very well.
Pam -
I thank you for my loving husband and my 3 boys – keep them all safe. Keep my health such that I can continue to help and contribute – and thank you so much for finally helping me get a job that I *want* to do instead of one that I *have* to do. Thank you for just everything, Lord, and give me the strength I need to do what has to be done each day. -
My husband, please. He has been diagnosed with cancer and we go to Moffitt this week. He is my whole world!
God speed his recovery and healing, Lynnilu! ☆☆☆☆☆
Finally able to check in with you, my friends, after my trip back to Cleveland Clinic last week.
The follow-up with the surgeon went well. They did an ultrasound on the carotid artery and said everything was good. I believe they lived up to their reputation as the best in the world for this type operation.
I so wish that I could say that has fixed my issues. But that is not the case. I didn't expect the surgery to be the total answer. I had asked for an additional appointment with a vascular specialist, and was able to see one while I was there. My goal was to begin the process of finding some specialist (or more than one) at a top-rated research or teaching hospital facility. I had come to the conclusion that I had to have someone help me figure out a program of action which would address the complex interaction of illnesses which have affected my quality of life so dramatically.
I was able to present my case and my questions to the vascular specialist and his team. It was like being in an episode of "House", only my specialist was a pleasant man. He arrived, flanked by three colleagues, who stood around the tiny room while the big guy sat next to me. I had given much thought to the best way to communicate with them, and was able to quickly and succinctly state my issues and ask my questions. After I spoke, the doctor looked at his colleagues, they looked at him, and they all looked at me. He then said "You have come to the correct conclusions and asked the correct questions." Truly, it was a totally bizarre moment! I came very close to bursting out laughing.
Then came a pregnant pause, which was followed by his explanation that, although they are very aware of the problems I presented, they didn't yet know exactly what to do about them. My reply was that I was just the tip of the iceberg of what the medical profession was about to be flooded with (I know, ending with a preposition). I explained that I was at the leading edge of the baby boomers, and there were a whole lot of people coming behind me, many, many people who would be experiencing what I am experiencing.
I told them I had to find someone in the DC area, since I couldn't keep coming back to Cleveland. Unfortunately, no one knew a specific doctor in my area. The suggestion was that my best bet would be Johns Hopkins. So that is where I will begin my search.
The stress on my body as it is struggling to recover from the surgery, combined with having to make the road trip back to Cleveland, has resulted in all my illnesses flaring up at once. I have been in tremendous pain and fatigue, basically non-stop, since the surgery. I haven't even been able to see the difference and improvement that has to be there, since they cleaned out that artery and the blood flow to the brain obviously improved. But I trust that, given more time, I will start to feel better.
God has given me strength of mind and kept me from despair. I am totally determined to continue my quest for help and am just waiting until I feel a little bit better, so that I can start making all the phone calls and dealing with all the bureaucracy.
I ask for your continued prayers.
Love to all, and God's blessings

Australia's ABC hacked over Geert Wilders interview
Australia's ABC hacked over Geert Wilders interview
The Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) said it was investigating "reports of a security breach on an ABC site", with a Twitter user named @Phr0zenM claiming it was part of a hacking mission named #OpWilders.
"ABC hacked for giving a platform for Geert Wilders to spread hatred #OpWilders - database leaked!" @Phr0zenM said.
The details of some 50,000 Australians, including email addresses, usernames and passwords, addresses and other sensitive information, were reportedly posted online by the Twitter user, with victims said to include some 1,000 government employees.
An ABC spokeswoman told AFP the broadcaster had been "made aware that an ABC television programme website was hacked. The website relates to the ABC television programme Making Australia Happy, which aired in late 2010".
"At this stage, we are still investigating the details of the breach. However, we do know that it has exposed the name, username and a... version of the password that audience members used to register on the programme website," she said.
"As soon as the ABC was made aware of this activity the site was shut down."
She noted that the breach "originated at an overseas location and an activist had claimed responsibility for it."
"The ABC will be in contact with audience members who have been directly affected," she added.
Populist anti-Islamist Wilders gave the interview to the ABC's Lateline programme ahead of his speaking tour of Australia.
There were protests outside a number of his events, including one Melbourne where police had to break up scuffles.

Alex Webb (born 5 May 1952) is a photojournalist associated with Magnum Photos. He has primarily worked in color, has published several books, and has contributed to such magazines as GEO, Time, and the New York Times Magazine.
Born in San Francisco, Webb was raised in New England.[1] Webb first became interested in photography as a high school student and in 1972 attended the Apeiron Workshops in Millerton, New York, where he met Magnum photographers Bruce Davidson and Charles Harbutt. He went on to study history and literature at Harvard University (graduating in 1974), but also studied photography at the Carpenter Center for the Visual Arts. By 1974 he was working as a photojournalist and in 1976 he became an associate member of Magnum Photos. During this time he documented small-town life in the American South. He also did some work in the Caribbean and Mexico, which led him, in 1978, to begin working in color, which he has continued to do.[2]
Webb's work has been exhibited around the world, including at the Walker Art Center, the Museum of Photographic Arts, the International Center of Photography, the High Museum of Art, the Museum of Contemporary Art in San Diego, and the Whitney Museum of American Art. His work is in numerous collections.[3] He has received commissions from the High Museum of Art as well as the Banesto Foundation in Spain.
Webb has produced six monographs with bodies of work from The Tropics (Mexico, the Caribbean Islands, Africa, and Asia,), Haiti, Florida, the Amazon region, the U.S.-Mexico Border, and Istanbul, and one retrospective monograph, The Suffering of Light.

Is there anyone here who has been fobbed off enough to go private for a diagnosis?
How much did it cost and do you have any helpful hints / tips for a Mother seeking a diagnosis?
His MAIN symptom is ''HYPERACTIVENESS''
He just does not stop and since Schools' have broken up (Yes, bad Mama, not home-schooling!) he has been uncontrollable.
Always on the go and believe it or not - NOT GOING TO SLEEP BEFORE 1 AM!!!
I am becoming so exhausted I want to sleep all Christmas day!!
He has IBS (or such like) and is on medication to treat that (I have also heard that bowel problems go 'hand in hand' with autism disorders)
He is now 6 years old and has already been kept back a year at school.
His motor skills are lack, and his speach has vastly improved BUT when working as a group, he's the ''listening'' child!
I want a diagnosis before he is kept back ANOTHER year and I fear that will happen, I knew when he started school he was NOT ready.
Please help, I am desprate!

Extremely nice for big gatherings excellent meeting spaces
Very nice hotel great rooms and food options from the downstairs restaurant. Great indoor pool and very nice outdoor pool.I like the privacy. The hotel is located on an 'estate' as they describe it so there is no traffic driving by or other people around the hotel.
I did not like that the bar closed so early.
Great service. Very easy to use shuttle to airport. Close to airport but didn't hear the planes
It was clean, and the staff was friendly and accommodating.
It was extremely outdated. No refrigerator in the room, walls were paper thin, could hear EVERYTHING happening in the hallway. Disappointed with the star ranking. Might have been that star quality back in the 1970s. No CMT in the Music City Sheraton.
I would not stay here again for the price I paid. You walk in and think it will be great. THEN you actually get into the room and realize it isn't much better than a 2 star hotel. The cleanliness made it more tolerable.Quiet rooms nicely appointed. LArge bathroom.
Less than ideal coffee maker in the room; it overflowed each day and when we left a note to get 2 pods of regular coffee we still only were left one.
Beds very comfortable. Loved the computer area very much. Free parki g was appreciated.
I felt like a lower class citizen for booking with Priceline when I checked in. After that I did t associate with the staff. I wanted to feel welcome and that didn't come across. Rooms overlooked hotel roof tops which is not what I was expecting.
Rooms dated. No frig or micro but no problems at all.very clean and fancy.
no country music video channel like CMT or GAC on TV. Thought odd since we were in Nashville.
Liked this hotel because it wasn't far from the city of Nashville but far enough away from the city crowds and noise.Great hotel at a great price! The room was perfect and the hotel has an excellent restaurant (I reccomend the sweet potato fries with some BBQ sauce). Glad I checked with Priceline first.
The staff was extremely nice. I was there because my flight had been cancelled. The man at the guest said he couldn't control the airlines, but he did give a coupon for a free drink. Lovely!

The two attempts by Khubilai Khan, the Mongol Emperor of China, to invade Japan in 1274 and 1281 represent unique events in the history of both countries. It pitted the samurai of Japan against the fierce warriors of the steppes who had conquered half the known world.The Mongol conquest of Korea left them with a considerable quantity of maritime resources, which enabled them to thin seriously for the first time about crossing the Tsushima strait between Korea and Japan with an army of invasion. The first invasion, which began with savage raiding on the islands of Tsushima and Iki, made a landfall at Hakata Bay and forced the samurai defenders back inland. Luckily for the Japanese defenders, a storm scattered the Mongol invasion fleet, leading them to abandon this attempt.
In the intervening years the Japanese made defensive preparation, and the Mongol increased their fleet and army, so that the second invasion involved one of the largest seaborne expeditions in world history up to that time. This attempt was aimed at the same landing site, Hakata Bay, and met stiffer opposition form the new defences and the aggressive Japanese defenders. Forced buy a series of major Japanese raids to stay in their ships at anchor, the Mongol fleet was obliterated by a typhoon - the kami kaze (divine wind) - for the loss of as many as 90 per cent of the invaders. Although further preparations were made for an assault by the Mongols at the end of the 13ht and beginning of the 14th centuries, this proved to be the last realistic threat of an invasion of the home islands till 1945. less

President Barack Obama gave top military officials one year to "make substantial improvements with respect to sexual assault prevention and response, including to the military justice system," in a statement released Friday.
The president directed Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel and Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Martin Dempsey to report to him about the military's progress by Dec. 1, 2014.
"If I do not see the kind of progress I expect, then we will consider additional reforms that may be required to eliminate this crime from our military ranks and protect our brave service members who stand guard for us every day at home and around the world," Obama said.
Sexual assault in the military has divided the Senate this year, including Senate Democrats, with Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-N.Y.) leading a faction that would remove sexual assault investigations from the regular chain of command. Armed Services Chairman Carl Levin (D-Mich.) and Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-Mo.) have sought other reforms that maintained the chain of command.

The sale of the stake in the country' no. 2 insurer marks China's largest inbound acquisition. HSBC, Europe's biggest bank, is trying to divest what it considers non-core assets to improve profits. It will book a $2.6 billion post-tax gain from the sale.

There's a possibility I might come from upstate NY to attend (As I have family in Bridgewater so I could stay there Saturday evening before heading down South), I've been wanting to take my new OB offroad.
Unfortunately the event is a Sunday which could make it difficult for me to get back in a timely manner after a full day. BTW, how many people that are planning on going are planning on going with their stock Crapenzas? I plan on eventually getting Grabber AT2s, but not for quite a while - right not my priority is a good set of winter tires on a set of new 16" steelies until my all-season-relegated-to-summer Crapenzas wear out. |

Foreclosure rate falls in Michigan... for now
Foreclosure filings in Michigan fell 20% between October and November, but most of the decline came in homes in the final stages of foreclosure according to data released by Realty Trac, a group that calls itself "the nation's leading online foreclosure marketplace."
The pace of homes entering the system remained relatively unchanged.
Daren Bloomquist, with Realty Trac , believes banks backed off on home repossessions last month after a wave of negative publicity about mistakes in foreclosure documents. Bloomquist said:
"Ultimately, we think this issue is not going to stop very many foreclosures. A very small fraction of properties are going to not be foreclosed on that otherwise would be foreclosed on. It's just that they are going to be delayed."
Bloomquist expects banks will accelerate repossessions early next year.
In Realty Trac's data, Michigan ranked 7th in the rate of foreclosures. Nevada had the highest foreclosure rate for the 47th straight month.

Here's What Our Customers Are Saying
Poppy Dots Square Pockets I had a tough time finding invitations I liked that were practical, affordable, and cute. When I received the Poppy Dots invitations we ordered in navy, white, gray, and pink I was so excited and satisfied. Not only did they come organized in a sturdy blue box, but they were exactly what I wanted. Also, I spoke with customer service quite a few times before placing my order and I have to say they were a big part of the reason we decided to purchase our invitations through Magnet Street. They were extremely kind, flexible, and helpful. I am thrilled with our decision to order from Magnet Street and will definitely recommend their products to friends and family.
Perfect Style and Design
Southern Grace Pocket Invitations My fiance and I are getting married in a replica of an 1800s saloon, and these invitations fit our theme perfectly. The quality is very good, the printing is clear and the price was extremely competitive.
Simple, quality, and affordable
Decorative Spring Pocket Invitations I recently ordered these invitations for my wedding. The quality of the card is great. I really appreciate the affordability of this card as well as the other products of Magnet Street. The only thing I would say is, make sure to order a sample. They charge to make the "just one," but its worth it. I wanted a navy blue design and am glad that I got a sample because the navy looked black and I ended up using a lighter blue. I really didn't anticipate this as I ordered a save-the-date magnet with navy from Magnet Street and it was not as dark as the ink used on the invitation.
Decorative Spring Square Pockets Just received my invitations yesterday, and they're fantastic! I changed the lines & text colour to black and they look very sharp & clear. My only disapointment came from the rsvp cards which had the wording on the top right-hand corner, which isn't shown when in the pocket.
Beautiful wedding invites
Fun & Fresh Pocket Invitations The invites are awesome! Easy to fold, looks great, feels great! Shipping was fast took about 1 week! I choose pink, green and black and they came out great! The font was great also! Looks even better then on the computer!

Age: 21
Hometown: Chicago, Illinois
High School: T.F North
Major: Criminal justice; Concentration in Pre-Law
Minor: Social Work
Campus Involvement: Tour Guide, Central State University Chorus, ROTC
Why did you choose CSU?I always wanted to attend a Historically Black College or University. Being for Chicago, this was the closest one to my hometown. I also loved the vibe and energy. I wanted to attend a school where I could be challenged academically and the staff here really took time to work with me and guide me. Central State University also had a historic ROTC program. We were the first HBCU in the country to have a ROTC program and I definitely wanted to be a part of that.
What do you plan on doing when you graduate?After graduating from Central State University, I plan to continue my military career and use my degree to become an army officer, and also work in the JAG unit.
What do you like most about CSU I love the feeling of being at home; everyone makes you feel like you are welcome. Central is one of the smaller universities so you are more than just an id number; you're a person.

My favorite spots for a night on the town with my girls.
Always a treat to eat and catch a flick at Alamo. The previews and post preview clips are the best and the food phenomenal. Always take a look at the seasonal menu and the milkshakes!
So much pink! Definitely the girliest place to get a mani in town, but also the best place to relax and get pampered with girlfriends.
Cool, South Austin house tucked away off Barton Springs Road - perfect for hiding out with friends over wine, cheese and conversation. And this might be the only place where you can get a good 1/2 price bottle of wine on Sundays!
Love the vintage vibes of this little eatery. The decor is sweet. We enjoyed the brunch which was full of both sweet and savory dishes, including a breakfast style Mac and cheese!
Darling little Vietnamese/French Cafe. The breakfast banh mi is the best. Love the assortment of Bon bons and macarons.

While many people across Illinois had Monday off from work for Memorial Day, the members of the Illinois General Assembly were meeting in Springfield. Just four days remain until lawmakers are scheduled to adjourn for the summer.
The last week of session is a time for individual legislators to shine or stumble as months of hard work on legislation culminates in long-awaited votes. Illinois Public Radio's Brian Mackey has a look at some of this week's key players in Springfield.

BOSTON — BOSTON (AP) - A top Massachusetts law enforcement official says two men who have been taken into custody in connection with the failed Times Square car bomb are considered to have had a "direct connection" to the suspect, Faisal Shahzad.
The official says the men are believed to have provided money to Shahzad, but investigators are not sure whether they were witting accomplices or simply moving funds as is common between Middle Eastern and Central Asian nationals who live in the U.S. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because the investigation is ongoing.
The official says "these people might be completely innocent and now know what they were providing money for, but it's clear there's a connection."
Investigators say Shahzad has been cooperating since his arrest last week.

The room itself is located on the second floor close to the bathroom with a twin bed and if needed an extra real twin mattress on the floor. It will sleep 2 people very comfortably with one person each on a twin mattress.
The room has:
and includes:
Please do not confuse this with a traditional bed and breakfast (B&B) or a whole house/apartment rental. You are renting a private room in a private home offered to you at the fraction of the cost of an 'I get a fluffy towel and bathrobe' hotel or Chicago hostel. If you are looking for an actual B&B there are some exquisite B&B's here in Oak Park that will run you about $200-300+ per night. But they are truly amazing.
Our home is not a hotel and I don't want it to have that stuffy hotel feeling. The vibe is more of a bohemian, laid back and artsy kind of place with 5 private rooms (which can be viewed under listings). There are times when the house is full of people and others when there might be only a few. During high season (summer, Lollapalooza for example) the house may be very busy. Please do not be surprised by this. This is a room rental not to be confused with a whole house/apartment rental.
We are just a 3 minute walk to the Blue Line train. This is the train that takes you directly to O'Hare airport and also into downtown Chicago in about 17 minutes. To come from Midway you would take the Orange Line and switch for the Blue Line at Van Buren and continue on. If you prefer, I can connect you to a private driver. It's also a 5 minute drive to the 290 on ramp.
We are very convenient to all the attractions such as the Sears "Willis" Tower, Millenium Park, Shedd Aquarium, Field Museum, Adler Planetarium, Museum of Science and Industry, the Art Institute, Lincoln Park Zoo, Peggy Notebaert Nature Museum (with the free flying butterflies. Best nature museum and I've been to many) and Navy Pier, just to name a few (and that's really just a few. There are so many more things to do!)
We are walking distance to the Jewel and CVS (about 5 blocks). Next door to the Jewel is a Budget/Avis car rental for those times you just want to drive around.
We are around the corner from a yoga studio called Yoga Trek, Val's Halla records (if you're into music, this is a must see place) some great restaurants, La Majda for Mexican, Italian and The Buzz Cafe (great free range beef burger) for Eclectic fare, and just one train stop away from Brazilian, American, more Mexican food, Hole in the Wall for ice cream (yum) and a Pans, a small family owned grocery store. A laundry is next to the Brazilian restaurant. Don't forget to try the passion fruit mousse - delicious! 2 stops away is the best breakfast ever at Amelia's.
For the architecture buff, Frank Lloyd Wright's home and studio is located here in Oak Park along with many of his buildings. Guided tours are available.
It's also the birthplace of Ernest Hemingway.
We do have pets; cats and dogs. They are not allowed in the bedrooms, but that does not mean they don't run in if the door is left open. If you have any allergies, aversions or sensitivities to cats and/or dogs please keep this information in mind.
Smoking is allowed outside. All I ask is that you dispose of cigarette butts properly.
All reservations must go through AIRBNB including last minute reservations.
Please do ask any questions you can think of.
Thanks so much!

Lovely Bohemian home! Oak Park was a very beautiful neighborhood to stay in for Chicago, even if I only stayed one night. Never got to meet Tamara because of the short duration of my trip, but she was helpful in telling me how to get settled in over the phone. If I come back to Chicago, I will be staying with her! Also, the proximity to the CTA is very handy... you can practically see the Blue Line train stop from the house's front door, making its location even more ideal.
Tamara was a wonderful host! The room was clean and quiet, and really affordable for such a nice neighborhood. There were coffee shops and a library nearby, it was close to the blue line, and the neighborhood felt very safe. I also loved getting to spend time with Tamara's lovely cats!
Overall a good experience, I would definitely recommend it.
Unfortunately, I was not able to meet Tamara in person, since I arrived pretty late and I had to leave again early in the morning. But Tamara left me a note on the front door and on the door to my room to help me get settled in. These notes were very helpful and the accomondations were clean and pleasant.
Tamara was VERY accommodating with our last minute booking! (Really saved our trip). The house itself is in a good area, very close to the station and short trip downtown - as advertised. And even though we only saw Tamara briefly, she has a lot of helpful notes on getting around if you need it. She's very quick to get back to you regarding anything. I'd be happy to stay here again if/when I'm in Chicago next.
I instantly felt welcome at Tamara's place. She went out of her way to find me an iron for my suit and made sure I was very comfortable. I was pleasantly surprised to find some chocolate treats in my room as a welcome gift, just like the 5 star hotels used to do! Highly recommended!
I am very thankful to tamara hosted for every good things she provide to me to make my stay in her room good and comfortable , the house and the room and the bathroom was veru good , safe , secured , I like to visite tamara every time I am in chicago , thanks for Airbnb for this gift
It was my first time staying with an Airbnb-host. Tamara was just great. She was verry committed to give me a good stay and helped me planing my trip. Everything was easygoing and we had some pretty interesting and amusing talks. The house was verry vivid and I liked that. The cats and the dog are cute, I loved them. I took a walk to the nearby birthplace of Ernest Hemingway and the Hemingway museum. They are about 45 minutes by foot but it is easy to find.
The spot was great for me. She and her family were very nice and super helpful. If you are looking for a nice place to stay outside of the city proper but close to the the Line for easy access this is a good place.
This was my second stay and even better than the last one.
Tamara is just a multi-talent and a wonderful host..
I will go there again soon as it is the perfect location for my needs.

It's "PHOENIX"

He's just holding a spot till Mike Gesell is ready.
Wes Johnson, DG and the Morris twins. Four B12 ex players.
DG got some garbage time minutes tonight and made the most of them. In 8 minutes he was 4-5 from the field with 9 points and an assist.
Wesley Johnson is lighting it up for the Suns lately.
A roster of 12 is really tough to make compared to a roster of 53 (NFL). You basically need to be one of the best 500 players in the world instead of one of the best 1500 in the US (as only the US really plays "American football").
Too bad for DG:
Jeff Goodman @GoodmanESPN33m
Oklahoma City has waived Diante Garrett and former K-State wing Rodney McGruder.
The Suns just traded away Kendall Marshall, maybe DG goes back there?

Pestilence Z is a zombie survival turn-based RPG with hours of gameplay and content. This includes 3 playable characters with 3 specialization trees each, 5 unique enemy AI zombie types with 9 full zombie animation sets, 60 detailed and immersive maps, including 8 secret maps, compiled from a set of 600+ unique tiles, 100s of searchable items and over 602 possible different equipable items. Pestilence Z features a deep, engaging combat system to battle through the zombie mobs as you fight for survival. This is the first episode of the series of three and includes 5 missions. Pestilence Z also features several minutes of cinematic animation and an original sound track to drive the compelling story of the outbreak's origin.
About Zombie Movement and Walls: We understand people's dislike of this, however it is not a glitch or laziness. Much beta testing was done over this matter and ultimately we decided to allow zombies free movement over the map. Due to the zombie's movement restriction (one tile), this was the only way to keep a level of depth and strategy during movement in the world.
About Accuracy: Many factors attribute to overall accuracy: First, smaller zombies are harder to hit and larger zombies are easier to hit, certain guns have reduced accuracy at longer range, obviously the vet is the most accurate and the jock is the least accurate.
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars August 11, 2012
Very fun RPG. Zombies walking through walls look weird but I can get habituated to that, let's say they just put the walls down with their super virus +20 strength. ;)
Maybe would be a nice idea to make the searchable tiles more visible in some way, not only by passing the mouse over all the map. I'd like to be able to see them in a global look so I'm able to plan better my next moves.
Is the next chapter still in project? I hope so, I loved playing this one.

Dear diary:
Moving in this game takes forever. The main reason it provides hours of unique gameplay is that you can only move three squares at a time (until you kill all the zombies in an area). I'm bored. I'm like, level 2 and I'm bored. There is no incentive to keep playing this game. It's a cool idea and it should be a lot of fun.
Why isn't it fun? What the heck did you do?!
Rated 4 / 5 stars June 2, 2012
I was VERY much reminded of the board game Last Night on Earth with the zombie movement and the types of characters you could use. The game was strategic, fun and downright difficult. I appreciated the save option but a flee option would also be nice. Hope to see more playable characters in the future too. Or even characters we could create ourselves if that's possible...
