Next Up in Crusader Softball: Valparaiso closes the regular season this week with a chance to secure the outright Horizon League title with a three-game series at Cleveland State. The Crusaders have already clinched at least a share of the regular season championship, and need to win just one of three against the Vikings for the outright title. The home slate concludes earlier in the week as Valpo hosts Western Michigan for a non-league twinbill on Wednesday afternoon.
Previously: Valpo went just 3-3 last week, but the last victory, which came on Senior Day against Loyola by a 2-0 count, was enough to secure a share of the league's regular season title. The Crusaders started the week going 2-1 against Butler, sweeping a doubleheader by scores of 9-1 and 5-1 before falling the next day, 5-4. The Ramblers then came in and took both games on Saturday (3-2, 4-1) before Valpo took the series finale.
Following the Crusaders: Valpo's campus radio station, WVUR (95.1 FM), will be broadcasting Wednesday's Western Michigan doubleheader live over its airwaves, with the webcast also available at www.valpoathletics.com. Live stats for all five games this week will also be available through www.valpoathletics.com, as well as live chats for the entire CSU series.
Head Coach Jordan Stevens: Jordan Stevens is in his second season at the helm of the Valparaiso University softball program in 2012 after leading the Crusaders to a successful season in his first year in charge in 2011. Stevens, who now owns a record of 66-37-1 at the helm of the Crusaders, guided Valpo to 34 victories in his debut campaign, just one win shy of the program's single-season record. Valpo finished Horizon League play with a 15-7 record, finishing just one-half game out of the regular season championship, and was within one run of advancing to the league tournament championship.
Series Notes: Western Michigan - The Crusaders trail the all-time series against the Broncos 17-2, but the two squads have not met since 2003. That season saw WMU earn a 4-1 home win over Valpo in the first game of a scheduled doubleheader, but the second game was rained out.
Cleveland State - Valpo is just 8-15 all-time against the Vikings and just 4-8 versus Cleveland State since joining the Horizon League, but three of the Crusaders' victories came last year, as Valpo swept a pair of regular season games from CSU and also knocked the Vikings out of the Horizon League Championship. Pitchers Alex Lagesse and Sam McGee combined to surrender just three runs to the Vikings in the three victories last season.
Crusaders Picked Fourth in Preseason Poll: The head coaches selected Valparaiso to finish fourth in the Horizon League this season according to the preseason poll. UIC topped the polling with 60 points and six first-place votes, while Butler had two first-place votes and 55 points to place second. The Crusaders, who totaled 45 points, finished just behind Loyola in the voting.
Plenty of Experience Returns: For the second straight year, the Crusaders bring back the vast majority of their team from a season ago. Of last year's 18 letterwinners, 15 are back on the Valpo roster for 2012, including seven of the nine regular position players, as well as all four pitchers.
For the First Time: The Crusaders' win over Loyola on Sunday, combined with UIC's split in a doubleheader that day, guaranteed Valpo at least a share of the Horizon League regular season championship, the first league title in program history. Valpo actually twice previously came up just short of a regular season Horizon League crown, missing out on the title in 2008 after losing to Cleveland State in the season's final game and then falling just one-half game short of Loyola for the title last season.
And With a Win...: Entering the week, Valpo's closest competitor (Loyola) was three full games back with both squads having just three games remaining, meaning the Crusaders need to win just one game this weekend against CSU or have Loyola lose one to Detroit to secure the outright regular season title. With the outright title, the Crusaders would also earn the right to host the 2012 Horizon League Championship next week (May 9-12) on campus as the #1 seed.
Wins Mark Within Reach: Winning the outright regular season Horizon League title isn't the only milestone that could be reached this week by the Crusaders. Valpo enters the five-game week with 32 victories in 2012, the third-most in a single season in school history. The only squads which won more were the 2011 (34) and 2010 (35) teams, which means the Crusaders will match the program record for wins in a season with three wins this week and break it with four victories.
Other Records: This year's Crusader squad has already started to re-write the team single-season record book, breaking the marks for runs scored and RBIs in a season last week. Other counting records that could be in danger this week include home runs (47, record 49), doubles (78, record 88) and walks (149, record 162). Also, the team's current slugging and on-base percentages would be the best single-season marks in program history, while the fielding percentage would be just a fraction behind the record.
Historic League Start: While the Crusaders finally dropped a Horizon League game in the nightcap of a doubleheader at UIC, it halted one of the best starts ever in league play by a softball team. Valpo won each of its first four league series by sweeping all three contests and then took the series opener against the Flames for a 13-0 start, the second-best start in league play ever by a Horizon League program. Only the 1997 UIC squad, which went 14-0 in Horizon League action, won more consecutive games to start off the league season.
Double-Digit Winning Streak: The Crusaders' loss to Notre Dame in non-league action on April 18 snapped just the second double-digit winning streak in program history. Valpo carried an 11-game winning streak prior to the loss against the Fighting Irish, trailing just the 2011 squad, which won 13 straight at one point, for the longest winning streak all-time. The Crusaders, who went nearly three full weeks between losses, won nine of their 11 during this winning streak within Horizon League play, as opposed to the record streak, in which just three of the 13 games were league contests.
Record Rally: Given that the first game of the Saturday doubleheader against YSU April 14 was a 4-3 decision, nobody could have seen coming what happened in the nightcap. The Penguins torched Valpo for 11 first-inning runs and added another tally in the second to go up 12-0 through two frames. But that only set the stage for the largest come-from-behind win in Crusader softball history and what is believed to be the largest comeback in NCAA Division I softball this season. Valpo scored four in the third, three in the fourth and four in the fifth to cut the deficit to just one run before scoring one in the sixth to tie it and getting a walkoff single in the seventh for the 13-12 win. The 12 runs also marks the most Valpo has ever surrendered in a victory.
Record Margin: Valpo's high-powered offense rose to a new level earlier this year in a 17-0 win over Green Bay on March 31, setting a new program record for largest margin of victory. The Crusaders defeated the Phoenix by 17 runs, surpassing the previous mark of 16 set on April 2, 2010 when Valpo downed Detroit, 18-2. Valpo's 17 runs matches the third-most in a single game in program history (4/21/84 vs. Illinois Insitute of Technology; 3/30/11 at Northern Illinois) and was just one run shy of the single-game record. In addition, Valpo plated 12 runs in the fourth inning of that contest, the highest known single-inning tally all-time at Valpo.
Home Field Advantage: Despite splitting six home games last week, Valpo still owns a solid home field advantage at the Valparaiso University Softball Field. With the home regular season slate coming to a close against Western Michigan on Wednesday, the Crusaders own an 11-4 home record this season. Over the last three seasons, Valpo owns an impressive 33-8-1 record at home, including a 26-6 record in Horizon League play.
Winning by Run Rule: The Crusaders won the first game of the series against Butler on Wednesday 9-1 in five innings, their eighth victory via run rule this season. Valpo still has yet to be on the wrong end of a shortened victory in 2012. Last season, the Crusaders won eight games by run rule and lost three times. Since joining the Horizon League, Valpo boasts a 21-3 record in league games shortened via run rule.
League Honorees: Through ten weekends of play, the Crusaders have tallied seven Horizon League weekly award winners, most recently Sam McGee on April 16 after she broke Valpo's career wins record and threw her fourth consecutive shutout the previous week. Senior Jordan Rutkowski has earned three Player of the Week nods this season, while redshirt sophomore Jessie Marinec, freshman Brittany Duncan and senior Alex Lagesse have each also captured one weekly honor from the league office.
National Player of the Year Finalist: Senior catcher Jordan Rutkowski was one of just 25 softball players nationwide on the Finalist list for the 2012 USA Softball Collegiate Player of the Year honor, which came out three weeks ago. Rutkowski is the only Horizon League player on the list, which is dominated by players from major college programs. Rutkowski leads the league by far in RBIs (52), ranks second in doubles, home runs and total bases; third in runs scored; fourth in on-base percentage and hits; and fifth in batting average.
Sterling Rookie Season: Freshman Brittany Duncan is making her case not only to be named the Horizon League Newcomer of the Year, but to earn a spot on the league's First Team. Duncan continued her strong rookie campaign by driving in seven of Valpo's 23 runs last week over six games. The Crusaders' cleanup hitter ranks among the top-seven in the Horizon League and leads all league freshmen in batting average (.373), on-base percentage (.462), slugging percentage (.619), doubles (12), home runs (7) and RBIs (41), ranking second in the latter category behind only Rutkowski. She has especially stood out within Horizon League play, where she ranks second in the league with a .441batting average through seven league series, is also second in on-base percentage (.534) and slugging percentage (.746) and is tied for the league lead with 24 RBIs.
Excelling On Both Sides: Senior Joylyn Ichiyama-Drewry has returned after a redshirt year in 2011 and been impressive both offensively and defensively for the Crusaders this year. Overall, Ichiyama-Drewry is hitting .329 with 37 RBIs on the season, ranking fourth in the league. 24 of her 37 driven in have come in league play, tying her with Duncan for the top spot. Defensively, Ichiyama-Drewry has been a stalwart at third base, leading the Horizon League with 143 assists this year.
Lagesse Continues Strong Campaign: Senior Alex Lagesse had another strong week in the circle last week, going 2-1 over four starts while posting a 1.42 ERA. Lagesse allowed just two hits and one run in a series-opening victory against Butler on Wednesday. She then took a tough-luck loss in the opener versus Loyola Saturday, giving up just one earned run and two hits while striking out 10 batters. Then on Sunday, she put together one of the best games of her career, giving up just three hits and walking none while striking out a career-best 11 batters in the 2-0 win over the Ramblers. On the season, Lagesse is 15-8 with a 2.27 ERA, second-best in the Horizon League.
Jansen in Relief: Senior Shaleigh Jansen pitched five innings of shutout softball in the middle game of the three-game series against Loyola, continuing her solid performance in Horizon League play this season. Jansen has made seven appearances out of the bullpen in league play and is 3-1 with a 1.75 ERA in 20 innings of work. She has struck out 14 batters while limiting opponents to just a .197 batting average in Horizon League action.

Hi, (not you?) | Member Center | Sign Out
Posted: 12:55 a.m. Tuesday, Aug. 30, 2011
By Jamie Dupree
The trail of destruction from Hurricane Irene could spark a battle in Congress that we haven't seen for a number of years, as Republicans make noise about forcing budget cuts to pay for any new disaster relief spending by Uncle Sam.
Standard operating procedure in the Congress for generations has been that when natural disasters hit the United States, the federal share for cleanup and economic assistance is simply declared an "emergency" and added on to the budget.
That's been a bipartisan thing.
But with damages from Hurricane Irene forcing FEMA to juggle its disaster aid accounts - shifting money away from tornado relief in the midwest - top Republicans are signaling that maybe it's time to do something different.
Speaking on Fox News this week, Cantor said while Congress is ready to help those in need with disaster relief, it shouldn't mean even more red ink for the federal government.
"Unfortunately the government continues to borrow money and to spend money it doesn't have," Cantor said.
Back in 1995, the new Republican majority in the Congress wanted to do exactly that on disaster funding, so they packaged up a bill that included extra money to deal with the aftermath of the Oklahoma City bombing and a series of natural disasters, along with budget cuts to pay for it.
Reading through that debate from May of 1995 also opens a window into what we may hear in coming weeks in the Congress.
Republicans talked about how the budget must be balanced; of how average families can't just spend extra cash because of a disaster - they have to cut elsewhere.
Democrats argued that Republicans were trying to cut the budget to pay for tax cuts for the rich.
Those are fairly familiar arguments now in 2011 as well.
What happened with that bill that combined extra billions for FEMA with budget cuts to pay for the disaster aid?
It was easily approved by the House and Senate just before Memorial Day 1995, then it was vetoed by President Clinton.
It won't surprise me if that was the last time that the Congress tried to pay for disaster relief money with budget savings.
We'll see if the outcome is any different after Hurricane Irene.

After a quick lunch at a Mexican eatery on Sunset Boulevard in LA, Amanda Bynes, wearing blue shorts, a red top and a pair of sneakers went to the store next door named Kinlosangeles.com. She spent two and a half hours inside and came out wearing a white dress, black leather jacket, a pair of black high heels and bright red lipstick. When she noticed the paparazzi outside, she called a cab and tried to hide her face with the help of the salespeople from the store. September 17, 2012.

Cleveland third baseman Carlos Santana, left, tags out Cincinnati's Zack Cozart during the second inning of Thursday's exhibition game in Goodyear, Ariz. / Paul Sancya/AP
Cleveland 12
Cincinnati 3
Final exhibition
GOODYEAR, ARIZ. — Cleveland star catcher Carlos Santana made his first start at third base and got a hit. No chances to show off his glove, though.
Santana had a single in two at-bats, but didnt get to handle the ball at his new position as the Indians beat the Cincinnati Reds 12-3 today with the help of three homers.
Carlos is more comfortable out there than people give him credit for, manager Terry Francona said. We have some decisions to make. It is only the second game and we like (third baseman) Lonnie Chisenhall a lot.
Catching prospect Jake Lowery hit a grand slam, and Elliot Johnson and Tyler Naquin added two-run homers.
Zack Cozart hit a two-run double for the Reds. Leadoff hitter Billy Hamilton singled in two at-bats.
Starting time
Indians starters Justin Masterson is working on an offspeed pitch and a new contract. He avoided arbitration by signing a $9.7 million contract, but still is negotiating with the Indians to extend his tenure beyond this season. He struck out two and gave up a hit while pitching a scoreless inning.
I will probably still be here for another couple years, he said. You hire people to take care of that, so you can just pitch. There is nothing monumental happening right now. If something gets done, it will be before the season begins.
The Reds Johnny Cueto worked two scoreless innings pain-free. He made just 11 starts for Cincinnati in 2013, hampered by strained muscles in his right side that lingered the entire season. Cueto has cut down on his turning motion during his delivery to try to prevent injury.
I feel good, said Cueto, who threw 45 pitches in his first outing. Nothing is sore.
Trainer's room
Cleveland right-hander Matt Capps has been shut down for 14 days by Francona with a strained rotator cuff. Right-hander Frank Herrmann had right elbow re-construction surgery in March 2013. He is ready to throw live batting practice. Infielder Jose Ramirez is taking batting practice after having surgery on his left thumb in December. Right-hander Shaun Marcum is making progress during bullpen sessions as he recovers from shoulder surgery.
Cincinnati second baseman Brandon Phillips had the nail on his thumb bent during Wednesdays game. He was back in the lineup after the training staff trimmed the nail. Right-hander Mat Latos continues with pitchers drills. He had surgery to fix torn cartilage in his left knee Feb. 14.
Just take third
For the second consecutive game, Hamilton opened by getting on base. He singled against Masterson.
The crowd was anticipating a steal attempt from the man who set the professional record with 155 stolen bases in 2012. Instead, he went to third on an error.
In the mix
Carlos Carrasco pitched two perfect innings with two strikeouts. The 26-year-old is competing for the fifth spot in the Indians rotation with Trevor Bauer, Aaron Harang and Marcum.
Carrasco was real good, Francona said. He left pitches out over the plate to the first batter but made the adjustment.

LINCOLN — Run it, run it, run it, RUN IT!
Arkansas State quarterback Ryan Aplin knows his coach and offensive coordinator Gus Malzahn is behind him in practice, barking for the offense to go faster, faster, faster.
"As fast as humanly possible," Aplin said in a phone interview. Within 12 to 15 seconds of the play clock starting during a game. In practice, it's even quicker. A pace that produced 1,149 yards and 67 points in Arkansas State's first two games. A pace that flustered Nebraska's defense at UCLA, and could again when the Red Wolves head to Lincoln for their 11 a.m. game Saturday.
"We want 80-plus plays every game," Malzahn said in his weekly press conference.
Between the lines, the ultra-competitive Malzahn — who's been in college football since just 2006 but won a national title in 2010 directing Cam Newton at Auburn — is a perfectionist's perfectionist. No detail's too small, Aplin said. No aspect of the game too small for the offense to do again if it isn't done right the first time.
Exhibit A: Malzahn wants a pass thrown to the receiver's outside shoulder. Aplin throws it to the inside shoulder. Repeat. Then he hits the receiver in the numbers. Repeat. Outside shoulder. There's only one place where that ball can go.
Exhibit B: Malzahn gives his offense five plays to run without a hitch. One mistake — alignment, drop, read — the five plays reset. Recently, the Red Wolves got to play No. 4, messed up, and started over. Malzahn likes to test his players when they're tired, Aplin said, "because that's what separates good teams from great ones."
"You're going to do it until you do it right," Aplin said. "It gets under your skin a little, but in the end, he makes you a better player. He's one of the best minds in college football."
Aplin — a 6-foot-1, 205-pounder from Tampa — had accomplished a lot before Malzahn arrived from Auburn.
He was the 2011 Sun Belt offensive player of the year. He entered his senior season already owning the school record for completions; he's in the ASU record book in total offense. Arkansas State won 10 games in last year, sweeping through the conference undefeated. That season earned then-ASU coach Hugh Freeze a promotion to Ole Miss.
Malzahn, who had already turned down the Vanderbilt job, took a pay cut to move from Auburn back to Arkansas — where he'd become a high school head coaching legend at two schools with his no-huddle offense.
He even wrote a book on it: "The Hurry-Up, No Huddle: An Offensive Philosophy." In a yellowish seal on the cover, Malzahn's book touts "The Offense That Averaged Almost 7,000 Yards Per Season!" Malzahn spent one year coordinating Arkansas' offense, two years at Tulsa and three years at Auburn.
Malzahn cemented his pedigree with Newton. In one year, Newton threw for 2,854 yards, rushed for 1,473 and accounted for 50 touchdowns on his way to winning the Heisman Trophy. The Tigers won the national title.
Join the conversation on the Big Red Today Facebook page. |
Fast forward to this spring. Whenever Aplin wanted to watch cut-ups of Malzahn's offense executed to the hilt, the new coach turned on some clips of Newton.
"And I thought, 'Wow, I don't look anything like that,'" Aplin said.
Still, Aplin said, the film sessions helped him to understand the level of efficiency and poise Malzahn demands from his quarterback. Aplin has to digest a lot. He calls late on a Tuesday night after a meeting with coach.
Malzahn knows there's a learning curve for Aplin and the offense. Though Freeze ran a similar offense, Malzahn's is faster, using different terminology. And Arkansas State has lost a glut of wide receivers to a variety of issues, including Allen Muse leaving the program Wednesday for personal reasons.
"(Aplin) is a veteran guy," Malzahn said during the Sun Belt coaches' call. "At the same time he's still learning our offense. He has two games under his belt. I really felt like he's done some solid things. He's a very good decision-maker and he's protected the ball pretty well so far."
So far, Aplin's thrown for 606 yards, four touchdowns and one interception. That included 304 yards and three scores against Oregon, which raced to a 50-3 lead before coasting to a 57-34 victory Sept. 1. In a 33-28 win against Memphis last weekend, he completed all three passes and ran for a first down on the game-winning drive.
Next is Nebraska. Aplin's praise for the Huskers' defense is effusive and hardly acknowledges the 36-30 loss at UCLA last week. Of particular concern to Arkansas State, Aplin said, is senior safety Daimion Stafford.
Then again, Aplin's memory of NU — a 38-9 loss in 2009 — includes one of the best defenses in Husker history, anchored by multi-award winner Ndamukong Suh and motivated by a crowd that Sun Belt schools like Arkansas State like to face.
"We enjoy it," Aplin said. "With 60, 70 or 80,000 fans booing you."

Successfully complete the British campaign to unlock the Making Of 2 FMV sequence. Successfully complete the American campaign to unlock the Making Of 3 FMV sequence. # Secret areas in Come Out Fighting There are two secret areas in this level. The first is found at the first house where you have to exit your tank. Go to the barn door and jump at the wall to the left of it. You will go through the wall into a room with a giant chair and a very small door with a green light shining out. There are also two health packs in the room. The second secret area is at the second house. Go inside and clear out the house. In the back room on the right is a window where you can shoot the machine gunner that was shooting at you while you were coming into the house. Go back downstairs and outside. Jump over the sandbags and onto the barbed wire. Follow it to the house. You will go through the wall and down a hallway. At the end is a room with a Nazi UFO and four health packs. # Easy completion in First City To Fall First, go to the building on fire and get the health pack. Then, wait until the tanks kill everyone and blow up the building entrance. Go inside and get the two health packs. Kill the man with a rocket launcher. Go outside and stand in front of the M12. It will not go anywhere. Get to where you can snipe enemies with the M1 Garand and where they cannot see the M12. Go get the health pack by the city gates and pick up any left over from the battle. Around the corner is a room with a rocket launcher and a health pack. Down the street are more rocket launching Nazis. Stand in front of the M12 and snipe the Panzerschrecks again. Ease around the corner and there will be a building where about twenty five enemies will come out from. Set and snipe them. Go to the end of the street and into the building to kill two more anti-tank soldiers. Go in the basement and get a checkpoint. Then, go through the tunnels and get to the machine gun. Kill all the Nazis until the theater is blown up. Once they are all dead, go down another set of stairs and out the door. There are two Nazis with rocket launchers where the machine gun is located. Kill them and go down the sewers to complete the level. # MG42 machine gun in The Flag Must Fall Go out of the building that you started at. Go up the hill outside, then go into the trench on your left until you reach a hill. Turn right, clear out the pillbox, then get out of the pillbox and go straight. Clear out the next pillbox. Go back out of the trench and turn to the right. There will be another trench here. Do not go into it yet. Pass it, turn right, and go downhill into another trench. There should be a path leading left as you enter the trench. Follow it and you will find the MG42, which is a machine gun that you can carry that is just like the stationary guns that were shooting you earlier. # Giant apple in Operation Saturn Start the mission. Back up slightly and turn to your left. Find the tree near the road with no leaves (just branches). Face that tree, then drive up the right side of it, going off the road that you were on. Turn left and follow the dirt path in the snow that leads away from the mountain. After the path turns, look in the distance to find a strange object. Drive towards it to reach a giant hollow apple, with a UFO inside. # Teddy bear in Surrender At Aachen In Surrender At Aachen (the third mission in the American campaign), go through the door and kill the four Nazis (grenades are useful). Go to the area straight from the door that you came through. There will be a MP-40 and a teddy bear here. Pick up the teddy bear and you will receive health and a message stating "The Bear is adorable". # Go outside level in The Square On the multi-player map The Square, go towards the building with no equipment in front of it. On the left side there is a wall. Jump onto the wall then jump onto the dirt. Next, jump down on the other side and you are now out of The Square. Other players cannot see you, but you can see them. # Easy completion in Tractor Factory When you get up to the sniping area, crouch down in the window. There will be some ammunition and health in the corner if needed. Get it if desired, then snipe the first wave of soldiers with normal guns. When your "comrades" say that there are Panzershrecks, concentrate all of your fire there. Do not worry about the regular soldiers because they cannot aim well. Shoot the Panzershrecks until you see a man running up the road with a heavy machine gun. Shoot him then go to the left window and continue. # Russian campaign On the first tank level in the Russian campaign, it is best to use first person view to shoot the Nazis that have Panzershrecks and MP-40s. The MP-40s cannot hurt you, but are annoying. If you use third person view, you will usually miss. | ||

Peter and John Heal a Lame Man
1The time of prayer#3.1 The time of prayer: Many of the Jewish people prayed in their homes at regular times each day (see Daniel 6.11), and on special occasions they prayed in the temple. was about three o'clock in the afternoon, and Peter and John were going into the temple. 2A man who had been born lame was being carried to the temple door. Each day he was placed beside this door, known as the Beautiful Gate. He sat there and begged from the people who were going in.
3The man saw Peter and John entering the temple, and he asked them for money. 4But they looked straight at him and said, "Look up at us!"
5The man stared at them and thought he was going to get something. 6But Peter said, "I don't have any silver or gold! But I will give you what I do have. In the name of Jesus Christ from Nazareth, get up and start walking." 7Peter then took him by the right hand and helped him up.
At once the man's feet and ankles became strong, 8and he jumped up and started walking. He went with Peter and John into the temple, walking and jumping and praising God. 9Everyone saw him walking around and praising God. 10They knew he was the beggar who had been lying beside the Beautiful Gate, and they were completely surprised. They could not imagine what had happened to the man.
Peter Speaks in the Temple
11While the man kept holding on to Peter and John, the whole crowd ran to them in amazement at the place known as Solomon's Porch.#3.11 Solomon's Porch: A public place with tall columns along the east side of the temple. 12Peter saw that a crowd had gathered, and he said:
Friends, why are you surprised at what has happened? Why are you staring at us? Do you think we have some power of our own? Do you think we were able to make this man walk because we are so religious? 13#Ex 3.14-16 The God that Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and our other ancestors worshiped has brought honor to his Servant#3.13 Servant: Or "Son." Jesus. He is the one you betrayed. You turned against him when he was being tried by Pilate, even though Pilate wanted to set him free.
14 # Mt 27.15-23Mk 15.6-14Lk 23.13-23Jn 19.12-15 You rejected Jesus, who was holy and good. You asked for a murderer to be set free, 15and you killed the one who leads people to life. But God raised him from death, and all of us can tell you what he has done. 16You see this man, and you know him. He put his faith in the name of Jesus and was made strong. Faith in Jesus made this man completely well while everyone was watching.
17My friends, I am sure you and your leaders didn't know what you were doing. 18But God had his prophets tell that his Messiah would suffer, and now he has kept this promise. 19So turn to God! Give up your sins, and you will be forgiven. 20Then the time will come when the Lord will give you fresh strength. He will send you Jesus, his chosen Messiah. 21But Jesus must stay in heaven until God makes all things new, just as his holy prophets promised long ago.
22 # Dt 18.1518 (LXX) Moses said, "The Lord your God will choose one of your own people to be a prophet, just as he chose me. Listen to everything he tells you. 23#Dt 18.19 No one who disobeys this prophet will be one of God's people any longer."
24Samuel and all the other prophets who came later also spoke about what is now happening. 25#Gn 22.18 You are really the ones God told his prophets to speak to. And you were given the promise God made to your ancestors. He said to Abraham, "All nations on earth will be blessed because of someone from your family." 26God sent his chosen Son#3.26 Son: Or "Servant." to you first, because God wanted to bless you and make each one of you turn away from your sins.

Far from a "summer camp," the INNOVATE and RENAISSANCE SCHOLARS programs will challenge you to consider new concepts, grapple with tough questions, and see connections between different courses and disciplines. The contemporary relevance of the classroom discussions will be brought out through evening viewings and group discussions of films such as The Matrix or The Lord of the Rings - films that highlight issues regarding technology, human nature, the philosophy of the quest, and the role of classical myth and theology in the contemporary world.
Experience a learning environment led by some of the nation's best scholars as you embark on a journey of intellectual discovery that will set you on a path to becoming a man or woman of universal education, someone conversant with all of human learning. The Renaissance Scholar Program is for rising high school seniors.
One question you've probably been pondering is, "What will college life be like?" Well, it's not "all work and no play." Baylor is a thriving campus with more than enough opportunities to stretch you intellectually, spiritually, physically, and emotionally. We want you to experience true college life while you're here, and that includes fun.
You'll have full access to the University's Student Life Center (home of the tallest, free-standing climbing structure in Texas) and where the activities are endless - swimming, racquetball, basketball, a state-of-the-art fitness facility, and more. You'll also learn about some of Baylor's age-old traditions, from Dr Pepper Hour to "Heyyyyyy...Sic 'em Bears!"
At the end of the program, Scholars always ask, "Can we just stay here?" And our answer is, "Yes, you can!" Like Erika, most of our alumni can't imagine themselves anywhere else and return as freshmen in the fall.
"The program was a truly amazing experience that I'm glad I was able to take part in. I always had an interest in Baylor, but the program helped me to see how much the university really fits in with my personality. During my week here, I came to the conclusion that Baylor University is a wonderful place filled with incredible people. I truly understand now why the people I know who have attended the university say so many amazing things about it. I know where I'm going!" - Erika

I just got done reading a great, but biased.. :), review of Microsoft Silverlight. I laughed a bit and think he has some very valid points.. should be an interesting run.
If you haven't heard yet Adobe has been working on and now as officially released news around a new Media Player. This is built on Apollo which is a great demonstration of building an enterprise application on Apollo.
I am excited about the potential and power of Apollo. This media player will bring to the table some drm for flash video. Good or bad?.. you decide. It'll be interesting see where this goes.
Today is the day that has been long awaited by programmers and developers alike.. as well as "Provelopers".
Interestingly enough Go Live is not in any of the bundles. But that is not a sad thing... this is a joyous occasion. I'm excited about all the integration between the products, however adobe did not fail in passing along it's price tag on the new packages.
Anyway... this will open the doors to yet another internet revolution.
Check out all the details here.
Adobe just posted another article I wrote... ok I actually co-authored this one. Very informative. The article is entiteled "Performance-tuning Flash Media Server 2 for live webcasts using Linux". It's a great read even for those who are just tuning apache without the Flash media server.
It all started last week when the company I work for hired a new developer. This new developer inherited an old dell with winXP on it. The developer who gave up this machine received in return a brand new, shiny Windows Vista machine.
As curiosity would have it we all crowded around his machine to see first hand the latest achievement of Microsoft fully hoping to be blown away. After all, Microsoft does have a lot to answer for with all the 'pomp and circumstance' around Vista.
I finally got around to posting that the Flash 9 Player for Linux is official. A long time coming and a very welcome update.
We can only hope Adobe keeps up with developing for the linux community. I'd love to go full linux and run the flash IDE.... nice to work with the flex 2 compiler on linux though! Now to just get the Flex Builder over there....
Nice job Adobe... well done and thank you.
There has been a lot of talk about converting flv files recorded via the Flash Media Server or red5 to mp3 for podcasting. Well a solution that used to be closed source is now opening up. Exciting news. Check it out.
Update #2:
Looks like we have a solution now! Nellynomore. Whew.. thanks be.
Finally hell has frozen over! We have a flash player 9 linux plugin... ok.. it's in beta. But man oh man has it been a long time coming. Check it out and test away to your hearts content. http://blogs.adobe.com/penguin.swf/2006/10/beta_is_live.html
Huddle is a new an upcoming web conferencing tool. I have been one of the primary developers on the product and I am excited to let everyone know that now they can use it for free. On November 1st 100 Huddle accounts will be given away. Sign up here and let me know what you think. Here is a short demo of the tool. Click here to check it out.
So this morning I took a few minutes and decided to install and get red5 running.. what is red5 you ask?.. starwars game?... nope.. even cooler. It's an opensource flash media server... very cool with excellent possibilities. Now I'm not bagging on the Flash Media Server nor Adobe(macromedia) but I must say that this open source project is probably going to be a jumpoff point for some people.. with Adobe's archaic lisencing and all. I just thought maybe some people might want to install it too.

Better pic. Love some of GLEE's storylines and covers. I still have less respect for these actors due to the sexist mag cover of GQ. My male students still think that the pic continues to glorify males as "disrespecting playas". Not much positive views on Leah either.

Ltd. Edition Jose Cuervo 250 Aniversario Tequila
Filed under: Spirits
This fall Jose Cuervo will release a limited edition 250 Aniversario Tequila retailing for $2,250. The special bottling commemorates the historic birth of tequila production and the establishment of 10 generations of Cuervo family tradition: on November 2, 1758 King Carlos of Spain granted Don Jose Antonio de Cuervo the first plot of land on which to cultivate agave. In anticipation of the 250th anniversary, expert Jose Cuervo jimadores planted blue agave on the same land granted in 1758 and used these estate-grown plants exclusively in the production of Jose Cuervo 250 Aniversario. This precision was utilized to ensure every decanter maintains a direct link to this historic event and pays tribute to the centuries of labor and family passion that led to the creation of an industry.
Jose Cuervo 250 Aniversario is a 100 percent blue agave Extra Añejo Tequila blended from the most select tequilas in the family's reserve and aged in a unique double-cask method. The best of these Extra Añejos, aged in toasted new American Oak barrels for a minimum of three years, were selected by the master distiller and blended together to achieve a superior tequila. The distinctive blend was then finished for 10 months in Sherry casks originating from Spain. The decanter was inspired by the original glass bottle first used by Jose Cuervo to ship Tequila to towns throughout Mexico. Each comes packaged in elegant oak gift box and will have its sequential number etched into the glass, certifying the product's rarity and authenticity.

Access "Tests point out antivirus shortcomings"
This article is part of the January 2009 issue of How to be successful with your security steering committee
Antimalware vendors are loading up-with traditional signature-based detection, heuristic detection, detection based on common attack characteristics and exploits of known vulnerabilities, application controls, host firewall...whew! But how well is all this working? Recent tests from a couple of sources- Virus Bulletin (VB) and Secunia-didn't have all the answers, but the findings were interesting enough to make us wonder, yet again, how effective are these products and how do you test that effectiveness. The annual VB100 certification test-which has been around since 1998- didn't tell us much except that AV vendors can shoot fish in a barrel-in this case, a WildList virus sampling they surely all have signatures for. But other test results, detailed in the October Bulletin, detecting bots and worms, polymorphic viruses and especially Trojans, were more revealing.While all the major vendors scored perfectly on the VB100 test, they missed 5 to 15 percent on the Trojans test. The reason? First, this was a fresh batch of specimens, so the products had to depend ... Access >>>

By Crystal Paine, Contributing Writer
Are you working to ditch processed foods and put more real food on the table? This month we're running a series called Real Food Made Simple: A Beginner's Guide to Eating Better. Our goal is to answer the questions you might have and make the transition a whole lot easier!
Plan Ahead to Save Your Sanity
Meal planning is key to success and efficiency in the kitchen. We all probably know this. But you have to be intentional about it, or it doesn't happen.
I've done different things over the years, but what's currently working is to set aside time on Saturday morning to plan our menu for the upcoming week. While I'm planning the menu, I also make the grocery list. Then, on Saturday afternoon, I head to the store to do the shopping.
This ensures that we start the week with a full refrigerator and pantry -- and that we have the ingredients on hand to make the items on our menu! Then, throughout the week, I just have to work the plan.
My usual set up when planning our weekly menus -- laptop, magazine clippings, my home management binder, and coffee!
Here are some menu-planning helps and ideas:
- Use Pinterest for inspiration. I have a board called Recipes I Want to Try and every time I find a yummy-looking recipe on Pinterest, I pin it to this board. Then, when I'm planning our weekly menu, I consult this board for ideas.
- Buy a copy of Plan It, Don't Panic. This eBook is packed with great ideas and inspiration for menu planning.
- Download meal-planning printable forms. Instead of scratching down your menu on the back of an envelope, print one of these free menu planning forms (there are more here), fill it out, and stick it on the side of your refrigerator.
- Create a cute board. Make menu planning more exciting with one of these meal-planning boards.
- Plan according to what you have on hand. Save money (and reduce waste!) by starting your menu plan based upon what you already have in your refrigerator and freezer. I like to use the Ingredient Search Feature on AllRecipes.com to generate a list of ideas.
- Base your menu on what's in season and on sale. Check the sale's fliers for your local stores and see what the rock-bottom sales are for that week. This is a really easy and almost-effortless way to cut your grocery bill.
- Rotate a 3-month menu plan. If you want to simplify your life, consider taking the time to put together two or three month's worth of menus and a corresponding grocery list. Then, just rotate these menus. This way, you can keep re-using them over and over again saving you valuable time.
German Chocolate Fudge Bites -- so yummy! These can be made ahead of time and kept in the freezer for up to 4-6 weeks.
Double Up Your Efforts to Save You Time
I love to cook and bake. But I often don't have time to spend hours in the kitchen -- especially on busy weekdays. However, that doesn't mean we can't still enjoy home-cooked meals. It just means I have to get creative and make the most of my time in the kitchen.
Here are some things that help me save time and effort in the kitchen:
- Cook it once, eat it twice. Make a big pot of soup for dinner and serve it for two nights in a row. Or, make two meatloaves instead of one and eat one for dinner and freeze the extra meatloaf for later. It takes a lot less time to double a recipe than it does to make it two separate times. Plus, you only have to do the dishes once!
- Keep your freezer stocked. Take at least two hours on the weekend to make and freeze food for the coming week. It's amazing how much you can get done in a short amount of time if you set your mind to it, set the timer, and have a plan. If you're new to freezer cooking, check out my Beginner's Guide to Freezer Cooking post. You can also read about some of Stephanie's Real Food Freezer Cooking sessions.
- Make a week's worth of layered salads in mason jars. Such a simple way to make eating fresh salads all week a snap!
- Cook meat in bulk. Never just cook one pound of meat. Make it worth your while by browning multiple pounds of ground beef. Save yourself some effort by browning it in the crock pot.
- Prep your food as soon as you come home from the store. When you walk in the door from a shopping trip, do yourself a favor and go ahead and brown the ground beef, marinate the chicken, wash and chop all the veggies, and boil eggs... or whatever it is that you're planning to do with the food you bought. Work as quickly as you can to get this all done -- and then go put your feet up and enjoy the feeling of knowing you've done much of your kitchen prep work for the week already!
- Make bulk batches of baking mixes for your favorite recipes. Do you have certain baked goods that you like to make regularly? Take 15 minutes on the weekends to a quadruple batch of the dry ingredients together. Then, when you're ready to make pancakes or cookies or muffins, half the job is already done. By the way, here's my favorite homemade baking mix.
Put Your Appliances to Work For You to Save You Energy
We might not live in the age of servants, but we certainly have some fantastic modern appliances at our disposal. Use them to your advantage!
Here are my favorite appliances:
- Crockpot. Every woman needs one of these in her kitchen! Use it to make amazing rotisserie chicken, homemade yogurt, homemade applesauce, and much more. I love the ideas for Crockpot Freezer Cooking, too! (Stephanie's note- Have you seen the new ebook "Crock On"? Tons of easy recipes!)
- Bread Machine. I love my Zojirushi Bread Machine and use it to make homemade bread, bread sticks, cinnamon swirl bread, homemade rolls, cinnamon rolls, and more!
- VitaMix. This is an expensive kitchen tool, but it's probably my most-used appliance, next to my bread machine. I use it to make homemade fruit smoothies, green smoothies, healthy peanut butter chocolate banana "ice cream", and more. You can also make very inexpensive homemade rice milk in it.
- KitchenAid. I inherited this appliance from my grandma and it's so helpful for mixing up big batches of dough and batter.

A Superb walking holiday in Italy, journeying through the countries most spectacular mountain range
This Italy Walking holiday is based at Hotel Adler, a lovely 4-star hotel with wellbeing centre and indoor swimming pool in the small village of Villabassa, just north of Cortina d'Ampezzo.
Nestled close to the Austrian border and sandwiched between the spectacular, jagged limestone peaks of the Dolomites, our base offers an excellent choice of wonderful routes with the opportunity to relax in comfort at the end of a day's walking.
We venture into the Fanes-Sennes and Dolomiti di Sesto National Parks, which provide great views of the famous Tre Cime di Lavaredo. Traditionally the front line between Italy and Austria-Hungary during the First World War, our walks take us through incredible open air museums. We also visit one of the most beautiful lakes in Italy, Lago di Braies, which is surrounded by colourful Dolomite peaks.
With such breathtaking scenery and a vast number of difficult walks available as well, we offer a more challenging grade on certain departures (see Dates & Prices page).
What makes this trip responsible?
Our base for this trip, Hotel Adler, has been a family run hotel for over 2 generations. The food is sourced locally and the hotel has a herb garden, which produces all the herbs used in their traditional cuisine. They have also installed solar panels, which now supply the hotel's hot water.
All our leaders are committed to Responsible Tourism and have received training and get additional refresher training on a regular basis so they can help you reduce you impact and maximise the benefits to the local communities from your visit.
Trip Notes contain all the detailed information you need. A full day by day itinerary, accommodation details, guides and other practical information. Download Now
