Aerie (Dragon Jousters #4)
by Mercedes LackeyWhen they had first come to Sanctuary, they had taken over a temple complex that seemed to have been dedicated to Haras, or some god very like him. That had been all well and good when there were only a handful of priests, but the devotees of Haras had descended in droves, and had made it quite clear that while having dragons and their Jousters dwelling in the workshops of the god was not precisely blasphemy, it was certainly being looked at with a somewhat stern eye.
Alta (Dragon Jousters #2)
by Mercedes LackeyNational best-selling fantasy legend Mercedes Lackey created a vivid, dynamic fusion of the Upper and Lower Kingdoms of ancient Egypt with the most exciting, authentic and believable portrayal of dragons ever imagined. In the second novel in Mercedes Lackey's richly-conceived Dragon Jousters series, the dragon rider Vetch escapes to Alta, the subjugated land of his birth. There, he hopes to teach his people to raise and train dragons-and build an army that will liberate his homeland.

Arcanum 101
by Rosemary Edghill Mercedes LackeyFifteen-year-old Tomas Torres, the son of an immigrant family who are just barely making it, gets picked up by the police for doing some work for the local padrone (collector). For this work, Tomas has made $1000 a week, a lot of money by anyone's count. But what is the work? What is Tomas arrested for? Arson, but arson that cannot be explained. Tomas has a most unusual gift: he is a fire-starter--he can start fires with sheer force of will that flame from the tips of his fingers. More, he can will fireballs to hurl at his enemies or opponents, and he can incinerate any evidence. But the courts decide they have enough to convict young Tomas and send him off to a school (which Tomas believes to be a kind of jail): St. Rhiannon's School for the Gifted and Exceptional Student. At St. Rhiannon's, Tomas soon finds that he is not alone. St. Rhia's, as they call it, is a school for students of all ages with "gifts" like Tomas's: students who are pre-cogs, storm-callers, witches, healers, wizards, techno-shamans, psionics, firestarters, teleporters, psychics, sensitives and much, much more. Things he could never have imagined happen at St. Rhia's, and in time Tomas comes to feel less alone. He begins to believe in what he actually sees (astral warriors, for example) and all that he is taught by his attractive young mentor, VeeVee. All students at St. Rhia's are attempting to learn to control their gifts. Tomas, too, must learn about the ethics and the laws of magic (of which he knows nothing) and more, how to control the strength and force of his fire. Join Tomas and his friends as they journey through St. Rhia's and beyond, both through the outside world and through magical Gates to the magical worlds of Chaos and other kingdoms where their gifts will be tested. If they succeed, their powers will take on new relevance and meaning.

The Dragon Quintet
by Orson Scott Card Elizabeth Moon Mercedes Lackey Tanith Lee Marvin Kaye Michael SwanwickAround the world, the dragon has been reborn in modern fantasy fiction. The classic winged fire-breathing reptiles often associated with evil (they do despoil villages and demand virgin sacrifices, after all) tend nowadays to be more kindly disposed to humanity, sometimes aloofly offering magical wisdom, sometimes actively involving themselves in human lives, whether as a servant or friend. In this volume, originally compiled exclusively for the members of the Science Fiction Book Club and not available in stores, editor Marvin Kaye has skillfully gathered brand- new contributions to the hoard of dragon lore by five top fantasy authors. Orson Scott Card-an expert at writing from a child's point of view, as evidenced in his bestselling Ender's Game and Ender's Shadow-offers a gothic yarn "In the Dragon's House" set in contemporary suburbia. Card tells about the mysterious dragon that lives in the wiring of an old house, palpable only to a young boy who in dreams shares its body and feels its true size and power. But what does it really want? Mercedes Lackey, prolific author of the Valdemar saga, writes of a slave boy who is chosen to care for a warrior's dragon. Vetch (and the reader) will learn much about dragon behavior . . . and this special dragon's secrets may be the key to his freedom. (Lackey was so taken by young Vetch that she expanded his adventures into a full-length novel with the same name as this novella-"Joust.") Tanith Lee is no stranger to dragons, which appeal quite often in her award-winning fantasies. The fable "Love in a Time of Dragons" is imbued with her signature atmosphere-Old World, moody, erotic-as a kitchen maid goes a-questing with a handsome champion to slay the local drakkor. But the tale takes a surprising twist. . . . Elizabeth Moon author of the popular Esmay Suiza and Heris Serrano series, takes a break from military science fiction to give us the tale of a young man forced by lies to flee his village . . . into an adventure of dwarfs and dragonspawn, of trust and wisdom, and, ultimately, "Judgment". Rounding off the collection is Michael Swanwick's "King Dragon", a strange amalgam of twentieth-century technology and faery magic, in which the award-winning author invokes a truly sinister and repellent creature-a being with the soul of a beast and the body of a machine- part metal, part devil... all merciless.

Dayton to Atlanta
Am traveling to Atlanta Ga. next week from Dayton. Looking for lunch stops along the way. Thank you!
Here are some topics that cover that route:
Good lunch off I-75 between Covington and Georgetown, KY? - http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/605120
Road Trip Sarasota, FL to Detroit, MI: Any can't miss spots along I-75? - http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/619242
BBQ in Tennessee off of I-75 - http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/140559
Of course, you can also search the South forum on the cities through which you will pass and where you might want to stop: Lexington, Knoxville, and Chattanooga, as well as your destination in Atlanta. (I doubt that you'd stop in Cincinnati since it's so close to your starting point.)
If you like the Colonel, the original KFC is in Corbin, Kentucky, a little north of the Tennessee border on I-75.
re: Davwud
True, but, as you said, it's neat to see. Like the first time I visited Columbus, Ohio, I had to go to the original Wendy's (now about to become a church outreach or something like that). Sure, it was just a Wendy's with a few mementos, but it was still the first site. Above and beyond the pale, if you will.

Plans for TX medical campus going forward despite lawsuit
The Statesman, September 10, 2012
Representatives for the Lakeway Regional Medical Center and the proposed Lakeway Medical Village say plans for the 93-acre campus are moving forward despite a lawsuit recently filed by a former partner involved with the project. The hospital's chief executive officer, David Kreye, said last week the lawsuit likewise wouldn't affect the newly opened hospital, which is working on a marketing campaign to raise awareness about the facility. Houston resident Mark Smith, an original developer of the planned medical campus, filed the suit in late August against the Lakeway Regional Medical Center, Aqua Land Lakeway Medical Development LLC and Phin-Ker Ventures LLC.

Wiki Fact
In 2009, for the first time, the amount of data sent with phones exceeded the sum of transmitted voice data. And our calls are getting shorter. A decade ago, we'd spend 3 minutes per call, today the average phone call lasts just 1 minute and 47 seconds.
Expert: Babies Born Today Will Grow Up Without Landlines
A technology expert has compiled a list of things that we take for granted, but a child born today will likely never use. For instance, within a decade, it's predicted that Wi-Fi will be the predominate way to connect with the internet. Same goes with landlines for phones. That's the quickest way to determine which generation you belong: Grandparents have landlines. Or with the advances in phones, it will be the only device you need for photography and videos. Finally, the movie theater may be out-of-business in less than a generation. Streaming video-on-demand may become the norm for that big screen in your home.
Fashionably Frugal: Used Car Owner Saving on Monthly Bills
The least expensive car to drive is the one you currently own. Otherwise, it would be a used car, within the past 5 years or so. Truly the most expensive car is the latest model on the car lot. It immediately loses value the moment you drive away. Meaning you're already underwater on the car loan.
Prom 'Dirty Dancing' Earns Teenagers the 'Lysol Treatment
A couple at the prom was treated to a Lysol shower. One of the moms chaperoning the school dance believed the couple's "grinding" was disgusting. So she brought out the industrial-sized can of Lysol and sprayed them down. But not before calling the girl a "slut" and "whore".
The chaperones, Jennifer Farmer and Hannah Rockey, told the cops that the kids were (quote) "dancing like they were having sex with their clothes on". This is an apt description for any school dance where grinding is the norm. The police report indicates several girls were Lysol'd. As many as 8 had to be treated for potential poisoning when it got in their eyes and mouth.

Like a whirlwind whips the desert sand, delicious new Bullnox excites a 3-part neural, endocrine and NOX "Androrush" that is unlike anything you have ever experienced before. Through the power of Bullnox every muscle now has the potential to pump up larger and its strength last longer than would otherwise be possible.
Feel the new Bullnox Super-Set formula working set by set! Its ingredients were chosen on the basis of their potential to support:
Bullnox is engineered to maximize training-induced muscular adaptations when partnered with new Bullrush, the world's first and leading recelerator! Use Bullrush during and/or after workouts to replace cellular substrates, compress recovery time and grow faster!

Can your business run indefinitely without you at the helm? Michael E. Gerber, author of The E-Myth, outlines the steps you need to take to get there.
Can your business run indefinitely without you at the helm? Michael E. Gerber, author of The E-Myth, outlines the steps you need to take to get there.
Business owners, especially those just starting out, often make the mistake of getting caught up in the day-to-day operations of their business—the work of running the business—so much so that they don't take time to consider how the business runs.
Are you guilty of putting your nose to the grindstone and forgetting to come up for a look around?
If so, it is critical that you understand the point I'm about to make. For if you do, neither your business nor your life will ever be the same.
Your business is not your life.
Your business and your life are two totally separate things.
At its best, your business is something apart from you, rather than a part of you, with its own rules and its own purposes. An organism, you might say, that will live or die according to how well it performs its sole function: to find and keep customers.
Once you recognize that the purpose of your life is not to serve your business, but that the primary purpose of your business is to serve your life, you can then go to work on your business, rather than in it, with a full understanding of why it is absolutely necessary for you to do so.
This is where you can put the model of the Franchise Prototype to work for you.
Working on your business rather than in your business will become the central theme of your daily activity, the prime catalyst for everything you do from this moment forward.
How do you work on your business?
Pretend that the business you own—or want to own—is the prototype, or will be the prototype, for 5,000 more just like it.
Not almost like it, but just like it. Perfect replicates. Clones.
In other words, pretend that you are going to franchise your business.
And if you are going to set up a model that is the prototype, there are rules you must follow:
If you are going to create a business that serves your life, you must create an organization that will stand on its own. You need a model that is systematized so that it functions the same way every time, and can be run by people with the lowest skill level. Then, you can step away. And that is the mark of a true business owner—the ability to enjoy the freedom of owning a business, without the requirement of doing work in the business everyday.
Look at your business – Can it function in your absence? If not, what would it take to get it there? Get to work on your business today.

Megan never thought she would have to deal with death, at least not at this age. Her older sister Linda was a picture of health and vitality — until her car collided with a semi on the way back to college, and she was killed instantly. Extremely popular and intelligent, Linda seemed almost invincible to 16-year-old Megan.
On the flip side, Tony wasn't surprised when he received word that his dad had died after struggling for five years with lung cancer. He'd seen his dad endure chemotherapy, radiation treatment, hospitals, tests, tests and more tests. In the end, his dad's death seemed almost inevitable.
Whether we're like Megan or Tony, none of us knows exactly how death will touch our lives until it does. We all know that facing death can't be avoided. In a single year, more than 2.4 million people die in the United States.1 We see deaths everywhere. Some of them are staged. In fact, by the time the average child leaves elementary school, he will have witnessed 8,000 murders and 100,000 other acts of violence on TV.2 On the other hand, some of the scenes are real. The horror on the faces of Columbine High School students caught on camera as they fled their school in April 1999 will be etched in our minds for years to come. Those situations may be rare, but they do happen, and they happen to real teens. Another way teens see death in their world is through suicide. More than 33,000 Americans took their own lives in 2006.3 It's likely that you know of someone who has either attempted or committed suicide.
Though people are living longer, society hasn't (and will never) come up with a way to eliminate death. And where death exists, sadness tugs at our hearts. You probably wouldn't be reading this right now if you hadn't experienced some type of loss — the death of a loved one or pet, an injury, a dream that seems unattainable now or your parents' divorce. Losses come in all shapes and sizes. You may not be responsible for the loss at all, but it doesn't change the fact that you hurt.
In Matthew 5:4, Jesus said, "Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted." Mourning doesn't just happen at funerals. It can happen whenever we face a loss no matter what it is. Some people don't mourn because it's too painful. We were initially created for a world without sadness, so we try our best to dodge it whenever possible. But mourning is a process that helps us deal with our sadness. It's healthy, even though it's difficult. If you're a guy, you may be feeling pressure from others to be strong and not let your emotions show. In reality, the hurt is still there whether you face it or not. When you choose to avoid it or bury it inside, it doesn't help. As painful as they may be, emotional wounds need to be exposed to Jesus Christ so He can heal them. He accepts us with our sadness, wants to comfort us and promises He will.
If we hide the pain, we'll pay a price, and if we bury the pain, it will often bury us. We might be consumed with resentment that surfaces when we least expect it. We might avoid others so we don't have to be reminded of our own losses. We might turn to alcohol, drugs or sex as a way to numb our pain. Or we might get angry because it feels safer than sadness. But we can be sure that if we don't face the loss, we won't experience lasting comfort.
There is a better way.
Grieving is invaluable, and it's a skill that can be used throughout your life in many situations. If you understand how to grieve now, you can avoid a lot of unnecessary heartache down the road.
You may have heard someone say that grief has different stages and that we have to walk through each stage to "get past the pain." Talking about stages of grief can be helpful for understanding our reactions, as long as we don't view those stages too rigidly. They don't always follow a specific progression; grieving people don't say, "I'm in stage one now, and I'm just about ready to step into the next stage." Stages can blend. Sometimes you might skip back and forth between them. For that reason it may be more helpful to view them as four "grief tasks" to work through, rather than four consecutive stages:4
Task 1 — Accept the reality of the loss.
When you first hear about a loss, you may experience shock or denial. You might think, No! This couldn't have happened; it just doesn't make sense! It may take a few weeks for your mind to catch up with reality. Difficulty sleeping, a change in appetite or a strong desire to be with others may show up at this point in your life. In extreme cases, people may experience delusions as they wait for their loved one to return. This was how Queen Victoria responded after the death of Prince Albert. At times she spoke to him in the palace and had his clothes laid out ready to be worn. That may sound bizarre, but people often do similar things in more subtle ways. For instance, you might deny how much the loss hurts, saying, "I can always find another friend," or, "My parents were fighting a lot with each other; the divorce is probably for the best." Though these denials may temporarily deaden the pain, having a clear picture of what you've lost will help you move to the second task.
Task 2 — Work through to the pain of grief.
When the truth finally hits you, it's not as though you'll wake up from a dream and find everything back to normal. In fact, as time goes on, you'll become aware of how this loss will change your life forever. Not only are you likely to feel the deep sense of hurt, but there may be strong anger toward another person, yourself or even God. These emotions can be intensified on certain dates such as your brother's first birthday after his death, your parent's wedding anniversary after a divorce, or the anniversary of the loss itself. Recognizing and allowing yourself to feel the pain is an honest reaction that can eventually help you to heal.
Task 3 — Accept your world with the loss.
Once you've faced the despair, with time and God's help, you will increasingly be able to accept the loss and realize that life goes on. You may have had your identity wrapped up in the person or relationship that has been lost. Understanding that you still have an identity apart from what has been lost is necessary to move ahead. Acceptance isn't about trying to block the loss out of your mind. Instead, it's about realizing that the loss will change your world, and that you're still meant to have a whole and healthy life in this new and different world. You'll have the ability to focus on future living once you're able to say goodbye with your heart to the things or people you've lost.
Task 4 — Have a place for your memories, but move on with life.
In some ways this is a continuation of Task 3. Here you are able to take specific, concrete steps to go on with your life in this new world. Memories and sadness remain, but there's a new strength to move on. In this stage you may be able to look back at how you've grown from the entire ordeal, and you may even reach out to others who are hurting. In Joshua 1:2, God tells Joshua, "Moses my servant is dead. Now then, you and all these people, get ready to cross the Jordan River." Joshua already knew Moses was dead — that was obvious! But God was giving Joshua the opportunity to move forward with the plans God had for him. If we choose to stay stuck in grief and loss forever, we'll never know how God could have used us.
OK, so you understand that dealing with your grief and pain is sometimes a long road, and that you may have to walk the same section of it several times before healing starts to happen. But that doesn't sound very encouraging, does it? Fortunately, there are some specific things you can do while you're walking that road. And while no single action is the key to everyone's walk of grief, some of these suggestions may help you.
1. Identify what you've lost.
It sounds easy enough: "My sister was killed," or "My horse died," or "My parents divorced." But try to go deeper than that. Besides the obvious loss, what are you going to have to live without? Are you losing a friend? Are you losing a source of stability? Are you losing an encourager? Sometimes writing down your losses can allow you to come back later and see how the relationship impacted you.
2. Touch your pain.
You can identify all your losses in your brain, but true grieving requires you to use your heart. A funeral service might help you to focus on your hurt, but when it's over, the sadness will still be there. To continue working through your pain, you might write a letter to the person who died. It's obviously not for that person's benefit, but it may help you to review what you appreciated most about him or her. Or you could visit that person's grave site and speak your heart. Often, the closer you were to the person you lost, the more you'll hurt. Making a scrapbook can also help you sift through tangible reminders of the person. You may experience memories that aren't enjoyable, but for healing to happen, the hurts and fears connected with a critical parent or hostile peer should be felt just as much as the positive memories.
3. Tell your story.
Although other people may experience the same loss, your story is unique. Feeling the emotions helps, but conveying them to others can bring even deeper healing. Right after the Columbine High School tragedy in 1999, students and school personnel were encouraged to talk to people about their feelings. Through tears and words, they shared their experiences — not so much to aid the police investigation but to help in their own recovery. Talking to a parent, counselor, minister, youth worker or friend can validate your emotions. Even sharing your experience with a trusted friend or adult in a letter may open the door for loved ones to talk with you about your grief. And once you've told your story, you'll probably need to retell it. You'll find that each time, your heart will heal a bit more.
4. Deal with your regrets.
If only I hadn't gone to basketball practice that day, I could've kept my sister from the accident! If I hadn't been thinking about myself, I could've stayed up with Dad and been with him when he died! Your mind may race with thoughts like these, trying to figure out how you could have kept death or loss from happening. Most of the time, our regrets come out of unreasonable expectations of ourselves. We review the event in our minds and come to the inaccurate conclusion that we could have made a difference. You need to realize that those feelings will be there. Many times people wish that they had died instead of the other person. This survivor's guilt creates a sorrow over having survived when someone else died or was injured.
Besides the "unrealistic" regrets, there may be times when we really have blown it — we may wish we hadn't said what we did or hadn't acted in a certain manner. Talking with a parent or pastor can help you get a handle on the degree to which your regret is realistic. Tell God if there is something you wish you could've changed. If you need to confess something, God is available and ready to forgive you when you come to Him with a repentant heart.5 Read God's comforting words in 1 John 1:9.
5. Don't bury your resentments.
People may not have always treated you in the best way. No one is perfect. At some time, parents, friends, siblings and teachers have all let you down. When a person who has hurt you dies, the feelings you've built up toward him or her can make the grieving process harder. Dealing with your hurt or anger is important so that the feelings can heal and not fester. The alternative is the resentment that develops when anger freezes inside us. Hebrews 12:15 tells us, "See to it that no one misses the grace of God and that no bitter root grows up to cause trouble and defile many."
You hurt yourself and others when you let bitterness grow. You may be afraid of your anger and not know what to do with it. You may use the anger as a shield to keep you from further hurt. But when you bottle up resentment, it spills into other areas of your life — including other relationships — without realizing it. We often let resentment build up because we think it shows a lack of respect to feel anger toward someone who has died. So we leave the other person on a pedestal and try to bury our emotions. But bitterness doesn't help anyone. Sometimes the only way to let go of your anger is to give yourself permission to feel it and then let it out in a healthy way.
6. Take a break.
It takes time to work through loss. You're not likely to do it in a moment. If grief hit us continually, we probably wouldn't have the strength to deal with it. Think of it as waves in the ocean. There are moments of calm between the swells, and some of them are smaller than others. There will be times when it feels as though a wave has just smacked you down. The grief will be intense. But then there will be calm times when you can regain your strength and footing until the next experience of grief moves in. Setting aside specific times to write out your feelings can help you identify your grief. For instance, when your mind wanders from a math assignment, you can tell yourself that you need to be thinking about algebra at the moment and that there will be time to journal later. That way, you don't have to deal with grief all the time, but you can consistently find blocks of time to face it.
7. Look forward.
In some ways, you may never get over the pain. The intense times of grief will get farther and farther apart, but you'll have reoccurring memories that still bring sadness. Although mourning is healthy, at some point you must choose to move ahead. How long should you grieve? That's a tough question, one that has no definite answer. It really depends on your experience and personality.
In Lamentations, Jeremiah does just what the title of his writings says — he laments:
I have been deprived of peace; I have forgotten what prosperity is. So I say, "My splendor is gone and all that I had hoped from the Lord." I remember my affliction and my wandering, the bitterness and the gall. I well remember them, and my soul is downcast within me." Lamentations 3:17-20
A paraphrased and condensed version might read like this: "Life stinks, and God, you made it that way!"
Boy, does Jeremiah get into his pain! But later on, there is a shift in his attitude: "Yet this I call to mind and therefore I have hope: Because of the Lord's great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail" (Lamentations 3:21-22).
Jeremiah opened his heart in gut-wrenching fashion, but in this verse he makes a decision to look for the truth beyond his struggle. And it doesn't just float into his head. He makes a choice to see how the nature of God affects his concern. Sometimes we look at it like a multiple-choice test:
a) I face the pain, or ...
b) I look at truth beyond the pain.
But it's not one or the other; we need to do both. Two more verses in the third chapter of Lamentations point to both parts of grieving: "For men are not cast off by the Lord forever. Though he brings grief, He will show compassion, so great is his unfailing love" (Lamentations 3:31-32).
After facing the sadness, it may be helpful to write out truths of encouragement to remind us of God's compassion on a weekly or daily basis. No matter what the loss has been, you have a life ahead of you worth living!
Along the road of grief, many people fall into potholes because they can't see clearly what's up ahead. Remembering these few things will help you avoid getting stuck on your journey:
No two people grieve the same way.
Grief isn't a cookie-cutter matter; people deal with loss differently. It's important that you decide to grieve, but you don't have to shed a certain number of tears. Parents, teachers, friends and others may have certain ideas about how you should grieve. Tell them that you appreciate their desire to see you work out the sadness, but without criticizing them, let them know how you need to grieve. Talk to them about the steps you're taking to deal with your loss. In most cases, their greatest desire is to see you work through your emotions.
Life doesn't stop for your pain.
Can you imagine how nice would it be if you could take a specific amount of time and grieve without having to worry about anything else in life? What if you could set your alarm clock for two years from now and know that whatever choices you make in that time won't bear any consequences? It's a nice thought, but it's not reality. You still have to get along with your parents and friends, and yes, you even have homework, volleyball practice and maybe a part-time job. Choices you make during your time of grief will affect you either positively or negatively, just like they do when life is "normal" — so choose wisely!
Watch out for unhealthy affection.
When it comes to grief, words sometimes don't help a whole lot. Job's friends sat with him in silence for seven days because they saw how much he hurt (Job 2:13). Sometimes we just need to be close to someone else in silence with a hug or an arm around a shoulder. Ask family or friends for the closeness you need, but set boundaries. You could end up in a sexually compromising situation when all you really needed was someone to show you that he or she cares.
Old losses may still need to be mourned.
"That was a long time ago. It doesn't affect me anymore. How could it? I barely remember it." When you're tempted to make these excuses, remember that it doesn't matter how much time has passed since the loss. You still need to face it. Some people go to their graves with old hurts that they've never touched. Don't make that mistake.
When we're young, it's hard to imagine death affecting us. Cartoon characters get flattened on the road, but in the next frame they jump up ready for more. Unless we've had someone close to us die, it's easy to think death happens only to older people. Until Christ comes back, though, death is here to stay. Without getting morbid, what does the Bible say about death?
Death came after sin entered the world (Genesis 2:17; Romans 5:15). It's hard to imagine that there was a time when death didn't exist on this earth, but there was!
Death doesn't respect anyone's status. "For all can see that wise men die; the foolish and the senseless alike perish and leave their wealth to others" (Psalm 49:10). No matter how much money you earn, you can't take it with you! And there is going to be a day when each one of us dies.
Jesus has demolished the power of death." ... Our Savior, Christ Jesus ... has destroyed death and has brought life and immortality to light through the gospel" (2 Timothy 1:10). If we ask Christ to forgive our sins and we receive Him into our hearts, we don't have to fear death. We will live with Him forever!
You can receive the free gift of forgiveness and live with God when you die."For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord" (Romans 6:23).
The best way to know how to grieve someone else's death is to make sure you're ready for your own. Have you accepted God's free gift? It's not about being perfect or getting yourself cleaned up for God. It's about knowing that you've blown it like everyone else, asking God to forgive you and asking Him to be your Savior and Lord. There aren't any magic words; you just need to open your heart. If you've never asked Christ into your life, do it now. None of us is guaranteed another day!
If you have any questions about what it means to become a Christian, talk to someone who has already given his or her heart to Jesus, or call Focus on the Family at (800) A-FAMILY (232-6459). We would love to speak with you about this most important decision you'll ever make.
No one can make you grieve; you have to decide if you will. The questions included here can help if you don't want to bury your emotions. Think about them with your heart. God can give you the courage to face the pain. Talk with your parents, youth leader or pastor about your grief. If you feel stuck, it may also be helpful to speak with a counselor.
Questions to Think About
What have I lost in my life?
How will that loss affect me now? In the future?
What will I miss the most?
What anger do I have, if any?
Are there any other losses I've buried in the past?
What regrets do I have, if any? Are they realistic?
Do I need to forgive anyone for hurts I've experienced?
What specific actions can I take to grieve my loss in a constructive manner?
Have I been able to talk to people about my loss?
Are others willing to talk to me about my hurt?
When am I least willing to touch my sadness?
Have there been times I've thought about ending my life? (If you have, talk to your parents, a teacher or pastor about those feelings right away.)
Are there choices I need to put on hold until I work through my grief?
What do I need from other people? Have I asked them without demanding that they respond?
Does God care about my pain?
What have I learned from my grief?
What is God's future for me?
Remember, grieving is never an easy process, but God is available to give you His comfort and peace. And in time, you will be able to move forward in His power.

Abstract: An approach to various metal hydrides based on electronic principles is presented. The effective medium theory (EMT) is used to illustrate fundamental aspects of metal-hydrogen interaction and clarify the most important processes taking place during the interaction. The elaboration is extended using the numerous existing results of experiment and calculations, as well as using some new material. In particular, the absorption/desorption of H in the Mg/MgH2 system is analyzed in detail, and all relevant initial structures and processes explained. Reasons for the high stability and slow sorption in this system are noted, and possible solutions proposed. The role of the transition-metal impurities in MgH2 is briefly discussed, and some interesting phenomena, observed in complex intermetallic compounds, are mentioned. The principle mechanism governing the Li-amide/imide transformation is also discussed. Latterly, some perspectives for the metal-hydrides investigation from the electronic point of view are elucidated.
Keywords: hydrogen storage; metal hydrides; MgH2; complex hydrides; Li-amide/imide; electronic structure; ab initio calculation; DFT; sorption kinetics; catalysts

The Russian film series "Russia Through the Documentary Lens," organized by the Cal State Long Beach (CSULB) Russian Film Club, returns to campus for another semester and begins Thursday, Feb. 21. Admission is free.
The three documentaries all deal with post-Soviet Russia, explained Andrew Jenks, associate professor of history at CSULB. Jenks, along with Dmitri Sidorov, associate professor of geography, and Harold Schefski, professor of Romance/German/Russian languages and literatures, has organized the film series for the past two years as a way to build interest in CSULB's Russian Studies resources.
"Even if the subject of the documentary occurred before the Soviet collapse, the films that depict them offer a window into contemporary Russia," Jenks said. "Audiences are invited to witness everything from one of the most bizarre beauty pageants they could ever imagine to anti-Nazi animation."
The film series opens at 7 p.m. on Thursday, Feb. 21, with "The Lost Colony" screening in Room 384 of the campus' Academic Services (AS) Building. The 72-minute film directed by Astrid Bussink in 2008 takes place in the tiny sub-tropical region of Abkhazia on the coast of the Black Sea. While Abkhazia is ostensibly a part of the post-Soviet nation of Georgia, it has been a de facto protectorate of Russia since the early 1990s. Sukhumi, the capital of Abkhazia, provides the backdrop for the documentary's central subject: a famous primate center created in the city in 1927, when Abkhazia was part of the now-defunct Soviet Union.
"Ultimately, however, the documentary is about the tragic fate of Abkhazia during and after the collapse of the Soviet Union," said Jenks. Parts of the documentary are very comical and parts of it are very sad. This documentary offers a fascinating way to discover the history of Abkhazia after the Soviet collapse. The lost colony is not so much the monkeys as the Abkhazians themselves."
The series continues on Thursday, March 7, at 7 p.m. with the 2007 documentary "Miss Gulag" directed by Maria Yatskova-Ibrahimova. Through the prism of a beauty pageant staged by female inmates of a Siberian prison camp emerges a complex narrative of the lives of the first generation of women to come of age in post-Soviet Russia. "Miss Gulag" explores the individual destinies of three women: Yulia, Tatiana and Natasha, all bound together by long prison sentences.
The series concludes on Wednesday, March 21, in the University Theater with an evening of Soviet animation. Jenks has collected standout examples of the Soviet Union's answer to Pixar and DreamWorks. The program will deal with many aspects of Soviet animation from propaganda to entertainment.
"Watch as Soviet cartoons satirize both American democracy and Nazi tyranny," he said. "Ranging in length from three to 25 minutes, the animation will address different themes and different ways to illustrate how Soviet animators used humor and images to convey the central messages of Soviet ideology."
Jenks believes the Russian film festival is a wonderful way to connect the campus with the Long Beach community.
"These cutting-edge documentaries represent a renaissance in the genre. We are proud to be able to present the results of that renaissance to the Long Beach community," said Jenks. "This series demonstrates the kinds of things students and the community have access to. A documentary series of this quality is rarely available at most universities. This series is a hidden gem."
Jenks encourages campus and community to attend. "Your mind will be bent in ways it hasn't been bent before," he said. "Audiences will see things they never imagined. It will open their perspective on aspects of life in the former Soviet Union that they would not have understood before. It will overcome stereotypes. If audiences like to be surprised and enlightened by that surprise, this is the series for them."

Smartphone surprise success Flappy Bird earns $50K per day
Flappy Bird, the newest and most savagely addicting smartphone game to have taken the mobile market by storm, is earning $50,000 in ad revenue each day, Vietnamese developer Dong Nguyen revealed Wednesday in an interview with The Verge.
While that's nothing compared with the insane $850,000 Candy Crush Saga -- the App Store's longtime leader in the top grossing charts -- earns UK developer King per day, it's certainly nothing to scoff at for a non-freemium game that was uploaded in May 2013, last updated in September, and remained virtually invisible for months.

I'm not so sure about Zach Randolph and Boozer being the same. If nothing else, Boozer brings a far better attitude and seems to be a much better team player.
I also don't really think that Diaw is better than Diaw in the post. Even if they were the same there, Diaw has the ability to play either forward spot or a point forward position as well. That makes him far more flexible than Boozer and therefore it would be easier to find minutes for him as a 6th man.
I do hear what you are saying though. Diaw makes it not necessary for us to get a 4 but I sure would love the depth it would give us.
What about Wallace playing the 2 spot and having Boozer, Diaw and Wallace on the floor at the same time?
@ Wam...
1) I would rather have Diaw in the lineup than Boozer, hands down. Diaw creates advantages lineup wise that we would lose with Boozer. Diaw is very fast for a PF, has a decent low post game, and is a threat at the end of games...and he is supposedly smarter than any coach on this team
2) Wallace can't play the two, because he isnt a shooter. It's been tried in the past, and has not worked.
3) I doubt Diaw would be happy as the 6th man on a team that's never made the playoffs if he wasn't happy as the 6th man on a championship contender...

The original Witten genus is an elliptic genus evaluated on the Tate curve, hence a genus for string structure-cobordisms with values in topological modular forms.
Witten obtained this originally as the partition function of the heterotic string in the perturbation theory about constant worldsheet configurations. This is what the Tate curve expresses.
The universal elliptic genus is a morphism from the complexified cobordism ring. Edward Witten argued that the value of the elliptic genus on can be understood as the -equivariant index of a Dirac operator on a loop space .
As such it can be understood as the partition function of an sigma-model SCFT ("the heterotic string"). Formalizations of this construction exist both in AQFT-type (Costello) and in FQFT-type quantum field theory (Stolz-Teichner)
This can be refined to a morphism of ring spectra (Ando-Hopkins-Rezk 10)
from the Thom spectrum of String bordism to the tmf-spectrum, also called the sigma-orientation, the string orientation of tmf.

The original reference on the string theoretic analytic interpretation of elliptic genera and on the Witten genus is
Elliptic Genera And Quantum Field Theory , Commun.Math.Phys. 109 525 (1987) (Euclid)
The Index Of The Dirac Operator In Loop Space Proc. of Conf. on Elliptic Curves and Modular Forms in Algebraic Topology Princeton (1986).
Rigorous formulations of the relation then appeared in

Raoul Bott, Clifford Taubes, On the rigidity theorems of Witten, J. of the Amer. Math. Soc., 2, 1989.
A simpler proof and many further cases were then discussed by Kefeng Liu.
That it takes a string structure to make the elliptic genus land in modular forms was noticed in

The refinement of the Witten genus from values in modular forms to topological modular forms and further to a morphism of E-∞ rings, hence to the string orientation of tmf is due to

Constructions of the sigma-model QFT that is supposed to give the Witten genus are proposed
in terms of chiral differential operators in
in terms of vertex operator algebra in
in terms of FQFT in
