"Ye Must Be Born Again" John 3:7bPosted Monday, October 15, 2012, at 3:00 PM
From the Pulpit of a Holiness Preacher
An email newsletter ministry of Richard D. Swift publishing the sermons of Rev. Reed A. Swift (1899-1973), a holiness preacher October 2012 The following sermon was preached in the Free Methodist Church of Mira Loma, California 1953. Ye Must Be Born Again John 3 Text verse 7b "Ye must be born again." Nicodemus said, "Can a man be born again when he is old?" Nicodemus no doubt was an old man and intelligent, but this was too much for him. Even in the natural anything that makes for life, whether a corn of wheat, a tree, a weed or a man, is all beyond a man's comprehension. For instance, "Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die it abideth alone; but if it die it bringeth forth much fruit." Now who fully understands this? You might think you do, but you don't. No human being can make a seed that will grow life. God alone understands it. You just plant God's seed. He does most of the balance of producing fruit. He says, "Except ye be born again ye cannot enter heaven." Why? Because we have no germ for spiritual life in us unless Christ be in us the hope of glory. We are dead! There is no spiritual life germ in a sinner. We must be born again for Christ to plant a spiritual life germ within us, which shall never die as long as we remain in Him and He in us. He makes us new creatures. If you would have divine life, a spiritual birth must take place. You are not compelled, but if you would have a new life you must have a new birth. There is great ignorance concerning the new birth. A minister asked a business man on one occasion, "Have you experienced the new birth?" His answer? "Oh, yes!" He questioned him further, and he said, "Five years ago a little one was born into our home." That was his "new birth". How ignorant of salvation. The Jewel of Heaven, Christ, God's only Son, left heaven's glory to give dying humanity a way to everlasting life. Aren't we foolish if we will not believe, accept, and obey Him? The new birth is old fashioned but not out of date. It is up to date to meet every human need of man. It is the new birth or spring from heaven that never runs dry. It wouldn't be a surprise that Nicodemus was a good church member. He most certainly wasn't a down and out sinner. He was an up and out one. He came to Jesus, but Jesus didn't lower the standard for him. Jesus told him, "Ye must be born again!" You may be respectable and have your name on a church roll without having it in the Lamb's book of Life. You may keep the rituals of the church without salvation. The up and out and the down and out must all be born again to ever enter heaven. A spiritual birth is neccessary for all classes if you ever enter the kingdom of God. No qualifications of man alone are sufficient to merit salvation. "Ye must be born again." Nicodemus said, "How can a man be born again when he is old?" That is a good question. Few who wait until they are old to get saved are seldom ever saved before they die and go into eternity unprepared to meet God. It is possible but not probable for one to be born again when he is old. Children readily come to the Lord and are easily saved and recieve the joy of Christ in their hearts. Many young people are easily converted, fewer middle aged, and seldom an elderly person accepts Christ as his personal Saviour. If you reject christ and then through youth and middl;e age, do think it will be easy when you are old? Never! As creatures of habit, you may say no until too late. Men who live without Christ usually die without hope of eternal life. You can form the habit of saying YES to God and have eternal life, or form the habit of saying NO and have death. The youth has a life to live to the Saviour as well a soul. Jesus said, "Marvel not that I say unto you, Ye must be born again." "That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit." "Flesh and blood shall not inherit the kingdom of God." Then God is good not to keep innocent helpless children out of the kingdom, so until they are old enough to choose evil rather than good, He will take them to heaven when they die. When Jesus was asked, "Who is the greatest in the kingdom of God?", He drew a little child unto Him and said, "Except ye be converted an become as little children, ye shall not enter the kingdom of God." Harmless, innocent, forgiving, believing. Oh God, may we be converted and be as innocent and pure as little children. How easily they forgive and forget their injuries. Nicodemus said, "How can these things be?" With man, impossible, but not with God! We donot understand the new birth, nor the natural birth, nor the atomic bomb, nor many other things of nature. We plant a tiny black seed and get beautiful flowers with various colors and sweet perfume. How? A black cow eats green grass and gives white milk, which after churned gives yellow butter! How? How is our food and drink of various clolors and kinds changed into blood, hair, finger nails, etc.? "How can these things be?" Yet, God rules, governs, and gives them all in the natural and in the spiritual. And He said, "If you hunger and thirst for God as you do for food, ye shall be filled." "Oh Lord! "How thou canst be so good to me, And be the God thou art, Is darkness to my intellect, But sunshine to my heart. Oh Lord! How can these things be?" Emperor Trajan, who ruled Rome in A.D. 98-117, said to a Rabbi named Joshua, "You say your God is everywhere. I should like to see Him." Rabbi Joshua answered, "Indeed His handiwork is everywhere, but you cannot look upon Him in the physical and live." Trajan insisted, so the Rabbi took him outside and told him to look at the sun. Whereupon, Trajan said, "Oh, I can't; it blinds me!" Joshua said, "Well, if you are unable to bear the light of one of god's creatures that He has created, how could you look upon the Creator and live?" Herbert Spencer, in his Principles of Biology, volume 1, page 93, says that life is, "the definite combination of heterogeneous changes, both simultaneous and successive, in corresponence with eternal co-existences and sequences." Now that you have learned this definition of life, does it enable you to grasp its full meaning and enjoy life better? We may not be able to explain the spiritual birth too well but, "Ye must be born again" to enter heaven. Have you ever seen a robot? A robot man? I have! Actions, etc. Have you ever seen a robot Christian? I have! Any robot may be improved upon over a period of time, but it never gives them real life. a man or woman may quit bad habits and be improved upon by good resolutions, but this is not he new birth. When a sinner ackowledges his sins to God and sincerely asks our righteous God to forgive and believes God, in a moment the work is done. The Holy Spirit makes him alive. He is made a new creature with a new heart, desires, and aspirations. Glory be to God! This does away with all doubt. Some say, "I hope I am saved" or "I think so", etc. The Holy Spirit assures us we are born of God. IJohn 5:10- "He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself." Romans 8:16- "The Spirit Himself beareth witness with our spirit that we are born of God." John 6:37- "Him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out." Acts 2:21- "Whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved." Ephesians 2:8- "For by grace are ye saved, through faith; and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God." Romans 10:9-10- "If thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation." Have you been born again? Are you a new creature in Christ Jesus? Believing in Christ? Living in Christ? and Obey Christ? "Ye must be born again!" Poem: "Long years my careless soul had led A life, which living, yet was dead; I knew not God, knew not His love Had sent His Son down from above. In living death, o'erwhelming pride, I thus God's patience long had tried, Til one in pity came to me, Showed me that Figure on a tree. looked at first with vacant eye, Thot it not strange a man should die, Then slowly from my stupid gaze I woke with heart and mind amaze. From thou crowned head, from pierced side, From hands and feet, a crimson tide Flowed down that tree, stained deep the ground And in that flood, God's life I found. God's blood poured out, sin to atone; God's life given up without without a moan. That guilty men, lost undone, blind, Might look, might live, might true life find. I looked, I lived, then first I knew Life's meaning, power, and purpose true; In Christ to live, to move, to be One with the Lord, Eternally." -J. Gordon Holdcraft This concludes my grandfather's sermon. Reader how is it with your soul? Are you born again? If not, you can be! If so, I trust this sermon blessed you as much as it did me. Especially the poem at the end. Yours for Radical Holiness, Richard D. Swift 505 Hickory Hills dr.

February may have come and gone, but the facts remain: every month should be Heart Month-especially if you're a woman.
Television commercials, print ads and even soap operas got in on the month-long message that women need to be more aware of their hearts.
And that's not the figurative heart that we give away on Valentine's Day.
Heart disease is now the leading cause of death among women in this country.
The reason? It's unclear.
It's all about the power of choice-and discovering that power through education.
That was the resounding theme Saturday night as members of the community came together to celebrate and participate in the 10th annual Black History Month banquet .
Monica Scott, a 2000 graduate of Chiefland High School and a recipient of a Black History Committee Scholarship, was keynote speaker for the evening.
In this corner you have more money, more equipment and a lower ISO rating.
In the other corner you have insurance liability, territory and details, details, details.
That was the scene Monday night as Bronson's town council listened to the beginnings of what may be a merger between its fire department and the now seemingly defunct fire department in Otter Creek.
Rick Lombardo, Bronson's fire chief, presented a draft of an agreement that could start the ball rolling toward combining the fire departments.
Heather Rucker and her ag students recently held their 5th annual petting zoo as part of National FFA Week. Chiefland Elementary school's kindergarten students took a walking field trip to participate in the program set up for them at the middle school's ag property.
"We do it for the kindergarteners. In two years I'll have the original group. Then I'll get to see if those kids are interested in ag and how many remember that day and what they went through and see if they've learned anything," Rucker said,

BRONSON - Levy County taxpayers netted $300,000 in savings with the opening of a new transfer station at the landfill east of Bronson, according to information released March 4 at the County Commission meeting.
Project Manager Andrew Wellman of Peter Brown Construction said the close-out of this project reflects the saving and changes the $3.2 million project into a $2.9 million project.
As of Feb. 28, all 14 fire departments in Levy County are on the new radio system, according to information released at the March 4 County Commission meeting.
Now that the radios are being used, a monthly fee begins. The provider, Williams Communication, is waiving the fee until April.
Dick Tummond, assistant to the county coordinator, requested $12,264 from the county to pay the monthly per-unit fee for 143 radios for the months of April through September. Commissioners voted 4-0 to authorize the payment, which pays the fee through the end of the current fiscal year.
BRONSON - When Renate Cannon asked if Levy County had discontinued its recycling trailer program, Landfill Director Benny Jerrels explained the situation during the March 4 County Commission meeting.
A problem with these trailers arises, Jerrels said, when people use them to dump household garbage there. When that happens, the trailers are removed from locations for a period of time or forever.
The recycle trailers have had tires stolen off of them and some people have even used them as a place to dump dead deer carcasses, Commission Chairman Sammy Yearty said.
BRONSON - There were 27 people convicted of felonies in Levy County from Feb. 1 through Feb. 29, according to records.
Following are the people and the crimes for which they were convicted:
* James Ausherman, 28, of Bronson, resisting arrest by using a vehicle to elude law enforcement officers.
* Ronald J. Barwick, 50, of Vidalia, Ga., producing methamphetamine and possession of illegal chemicals.
* Joseph Burnett, 46, of Cross City, burglary and grand theft.

Epilepsy Therapy Project
November 2009
The Epilepsy Therapy Project (ETP) exists to bring effective, safe and tolerable therapies to people living with epilepsy and seizures. It is not acceptable that still today, 1/3 of those with epilepsy, some one million kids and adults in the United States alone, live with seizures uncontrolled by any available therapy and that the existing treatments too often bring with them debilitating side effects. And it is not acceptable that the problem of epilepsy is not discussed and that epilepsy research has not attracted a level of philanthropic support commensurate with the unmet medical need. We need to work to continue to bring the spotlight on epilepsy and to rally support for the new therapies needed to stop seizures and unacceptable side effects.
In the early months of 2009 we have won some important victories in the area of epilepsy awareness with a cover story on the unsolved nature of epilepsy appearing in Newsweek magazine featuring ETP Co-founder Dr. Orrin Devinsky, and with a Talk of the Nation interview with Orrin and myself on National Public Radio.
In the area of direct action to advance new therapies, we have seen important progress in the activities of the ETP in 2008 and into the early months of 2009. These include our March 2008 and April 2009 Epilepsy Pipeline conference where we brought together several hundred scientists, entrepreneurs, investors and industry participants involved in new therapy development. Also, in 2008 we funded a number of important grants serving to advance promising therapy projects selected for their potential to impact patients in a timeframe that matters by our scientific and business advisory boards. We also made good progress enhancing the content of our epilepsy.com and epilepsy.com/professionals websites and in particular launched a new innovation center (epilepsy.com/innovation) to support scientists, entrepreneurs and investors.
As an organization, I am happy to say that with support and leadership from our President Joyce Cramer, and our Executive Director Kim Macher, we made strides in board involvement and had a record year relative to financial contributions from our board and from individual contributors. We need to make ongoing progress in our fund raising efforts, but I am gratified with the commitment shown by our board and community against the backdrop of evident economic and financial challenges of the last 18 months.
Support from industry through unrestricted educational grants declined in 2008 and despite the increase in individual support; we had to tighten our budget. I want to thank Joyce, Kim and our web director, Karen Dredske for finding ways to cut our costs and overhead, allowing us to maintain our support for grants and investments in new therapies and our other programmatic activities.
As we look into 2009, we are more than ever determined to make a difference in accelerating the path of new therapy development. And with the ongoing financial challenges facing academic and industry labs and enterprises, our grants, investments and programs are more important than ever.
Thanks to all of you whose efforts and contributions sustain the Epilepsy Therapy Project and work to eliminate seizures and side effects for the millions of people living with epilepsy in our country and around the world.

According to the 2013 guide, schools "qualify as Best Buys based on the quality of the academic offerings in relation to the cost of attendance" – or as the book also puts it, "outstanding academics with relatively modest prices." With tuition and fees of under $28,000 for the 2012-13 academic year, Warren Wilson is rated as "inexpensive" in relation to other private colleges and universities in the selective guide.
In its narrative on the college, the Fiske guide notes, "Success at Warren Wilson is measured not only by grades, but by community service and a sense of stewardship…. Roots in the culture of Appalachia combine with a strong international and environmental orientation to give Warren Wilson its unique flavor."
In addition to giving the college high marks for its academics, affordability and social life, the Fiske guide gives Warren Wilson the highest possible rating for its overall quality of life for undergraduate students.
The Fiske Guide to Colleges, first published in 1982, has been called "the best college guide you can buy" by USA Today.

Some new recent survey results suggest having a new commuter rail service might be a good thing for local residents and businesses.
Right now, Amtrak is the only rail service linking Charlottesville to northern Virginia and Washington D.C., but an electronic survey by the Charlottesville Regional Chamber of Commerce shows support for a change.
More than 66 percent of the survey's participants say if available, they would use the rail link.
"It shows that there is a demand for use out there and that generally our businesses have business ties or links to northern Virginia and Washington that would support a rail," said Steven Blaine, the Vice Chairman of Economic Vitality for the Charlottesville Regional Chamber of Commerce.
More than 230 members of the local Chamber of Commerce responded to the survey.

What happens when we are separated from a holy God? Would God really send judgment on the whole world?
Because God is holy, He must punish sin. Over time, Adam and Eve's family became more and more wicked. God was not pleased with the sin He saw. What did He do? He sent a Flood that would wipe out all the people on the earth—all except Noah and his family. This was His judgment because God must punish sin (Genesis 7:23).

But that means phanact either is a woman or has a feminine enough voice for that to be believable that he's a she or maybe just is a better voice actor than some (some being me and most of my male friends, seeing as none of us can do a believable female voice)

wait so after I came up with all those suggestions, you don't believe I considered the second most obvious one? I simply had to choose three and I chose the ones that were related to each other. (all of them were about phanact himself)

[ 19th century regional maps of the U.S. ]
One of the first maps to focus on the northern plains east of the Rockies. New settlers were moving into the northern plains in the early 1850s, and many emigrants passed through the region on their way further west along the Oregon Trail. This area had been part of the original Missouri Territory and with the increasing population, there was a need to break it into smaller units. Thus, in 1854, the Kansas-Nebraska Act was passed by Congress, setting up the two territories as they are shown in this map of but two years later. Kansas Territory is shown with its present north and south borders, but its western border extending into present-day Colorado. The Nebraska Territory is shown reaching all the way north to Canada and as far west as the "heights" of the Rocky Mountains. The territories retained this shape from 1855 until 1861 and few were made just of these territories in this configuration.
As this region was of considerable interest at the time, Colton included an impressive amount of information. Rivers, extremely important for emigrants and settlers alike, are shown with good detail, including the upper Missouri feeders, the two branches of the Platte, and the Arkansas River. Forts, such as Laramie, Atkinson, Clark, Union and many others, are clearly delineated, and Indian tribes are named and located throughout. Of particular interest are the indications of early exploration routes and the main passes over the Rocky Mountains, including the famous South Pass. An important map of an important region in the western expansion of the United States just prior to the Civil War. $375
"Nebraska and Kanzas." New York: J.H. Colton & Co., ca. 1857. 12 3/4 x 15 3/4. Lithograph. Original hand color. Very good condition. Denver.
A slightly later edition of Colton's fine map of the Nebraska and Kansas territories. Issued without the decorative border, this map does add an indication of the Oregon Trail, passing over the South Pass. $350
"Kansas and Nebraska." New York: J.H. Colton, 1863. 25 1/4 x 16 3/4. Lithograph. Original hand-coloring. Narrow margins around decorative border, with some chipping just into border. Browning on back at one side. One tiny spot in center. Otherwise, very good condition.
A map of the eastern parts of Nebraska and Kansas issued shortly after they took on their present-day shapes. The territories of Nebraska and Kansas were created in 1854 out of the old Missouri Territory. In 1861, Kansas attained statehood, while the Nebraska Territory lost two-thirds of its land to the newly created Dakota Territory, though it still extended to the Rocky Mountains. The western parts, beyond the 104th meridian, were detached from Nebraska in 1863, thus attaining its present configuration. This map, issued about this time, shows just the eastern parts of Nebraska and Kansas, as there was almost no development in the western parts. Detail is very good of this area, with counties, towns, rivers, Indian reservations, roads and forts clearly indicated and named. Of particular interest are the depictions of the old Santa Fe trail and the "Pony Express and U.S. Mail Route," both heading west off the map. $175
W.H. Gamble. "Map of Kansas, Nebraska and Colorado Showing also The Eastern portion of Idaho." Philadelphia: S. Augustus Mitchell, Jr., 1863. 11 1/2 x 14. Lithograph. Full original color. Very good condition. Denver.
A fine of the Plains states from Philadelphia publisher S. Augustus Mitchell Jr.. It shows the territories of Kansas and Nebraska shortly after they were reorganized into their present borders (though they were still territories for a number of years yet). Their reorganization was started with the creation of the territory of Colorado in 1861. This territory was formed because of the huge population which had emigrated to the foothills of the Rocky Mountains in the "Pike's Peak Gold Rush." When gold was discovered at the junction of Cherry Creek and the South Platte in 1858, tens of thousands flooded to the area over the next couple of years, creating the towns of Denver City and Auraria (the two which joined together to form Denver), as well as Boulder, Golden, Central City, Breckinridge, all of which are shown on this map in the "Gold Region."
Colorado was created to a great extent from the western part of Kansas, which thus was shrunk to its current size. Nebraska also lost some land to Colorado in 1861, but it was mostly reduced that year by the organization of the lands north of 43° N as the Dakota Territory. The last change to its borders, the year this map was issued, occurred when the western part of both Dakota and Nebraska were subsumed in the new territory of Idaho. This was a period of the planning of the trans-continental railroad and Mitchell shows a number of the considered routes with dashed lines. This map was issued at a time when this region was flooded by settlers, miners and emigrants seeking new opportunities in the burgeoning American West. The eastern-most parts of Kansas and Nebraska are shown fairly well settled, and in the west are shown a few new settlements, forts, and Indian tribes. With updated maps in most atlases, Mitchell pictured this fascinating part of American history at a transitional stage. $250
"Johnson's Nebraska, Dakota, Colorado, Idaho & Kansas." New York: Johnson & Ward, 1863. 12 3/4 x 15 1/2. Lithograph. Original hand coloring. Very good condition.
A detailed map of northern plain states (present-day Kansas, Nebraska,Colorado, the Dakotas, Wyoming and Montana). This map shows a configuration of this region which lasted only for one year. In 1863,the eastern part of Washington Territory and the western part of Dakota Territory were broken off to form the Idaho Territory, encompassing what today is Idaho, Montana and Wyoming. The next year the eastern part of this huge Idaho Territory, that shown here, was broken off to create the Montana Territory, with the southeastern part temporarily going back into the Dakota Territory. The detail in this map is most impressive, showing rivers, towns, forts, Indian tribes, and the early trails which criss-crossed this region. This map was issued during the Pike's Peak gold rush, so the four main routes to "Auroria" are shown, the distances of the northern and southern-most routes noted on the map. The gold rush towns of Auraria, Denver, and Montana are all shown, though the first two had by then merged into Denver. $250
"Kansas and Nebraska." Washington: U.S. Government Printing Office, 1864. Lithograph. On thin paper and folded as issues. Fragile at folds with some splitting. Denver.
A finely detailed map based on U.S. government sponsored surveys. A vital period for these two states. The public surveys are found only in the eastern half of each state. $150
A.J. Johnson. "Johnson's Iowa and Nebraska." New York: Johnson & Ward, 1864. 17 x 22 3/4. Lithograph. Original hand color. Short repaired tear into bottom. Otherwise, very good condition.
Another Johnson's map of Iowa and Nebraska, but three years later. The differences are minor, but interesting. First, Johnson makes the map a double page size and increases the part of Nebraska shown to twice the size as on the earlier map. There is little information given to this newly revealed part of the territory, except that Johnson shows the proposed route of the Pacific railroad, but the inclusion of the extended part of Nebraska clearly indicates the publisher expected this now blank part of the map to be rapidly filled in. $165
"Map Showing the progress of the Public surveys of Kansas and Nebraska . 1866." Washington: General Land Office, 1866. 23 5/8 x 33. Lithograph by Bowen & Co. Original outline color. Some typical slight wear and light browning at folds. Very good condition. Wheat: 1151. Denver.
The U.S. General Land Office (GLO) was established in 1812 with responsibility to survey and control the dispersal of public lands. All public land was required to be surveyed prior to settlement, and the first director of the GLO, Thomas Hutchins, set up a systematic process of rectangular survey for the public lands and launched the great national project to survey and map the public domain in the entire country, a procedure which got under way in the famous "seven ranges" of southeast Ohio. Each surveyor was to record not only geography, but also features of the landscape with economic import, such as roads, Indian trails, existing settlements, Indian lands, mineral deposits, and of particular interest, railroads and their rights of way. Of note is that unlike most surveys of the time, the surveyors were instructed not to apply new names to the landscape, but to use "the received names of all rivers, creeks, lakes, swamps, prairies, hills, mountains and other natural objects."
By mid-century the GLO had completed most of the surveys for the lands between the Appalachians and the Mississippi, and so focused most of its attention to the American west for the rest of the century. The GLO published mostly state maps, which were issued in annual reports, bound into state atlases, and in a few atlases that combined all the current maps in progress. These maps produced by the GLO are the most accurate and detailed maps of the U.S., based on rigorous and comprehensive surveys not hindered by commercial concerns. These maps proved very useful to private American mapmakers, and they were often the basis for state and county maps in the second part of the nineteenth century. This 1866 map shows Kansas and Nebraska five years after the former was achieved statehood and the latter was reduced to close to its present borders. The map contains lots of interesting information, especially on minerals and, as noted by Wheat, railroads in this region then undergoing considerable growth. $650
"Colton's Map of Kansas, Nebraska, Dakota & Indian Territory." New York: G.W. and C.B. Colton & Co., 1866. 26 1/2 x 16 3/4. Lithograph. Original hand color. Edge of decorative border trimmed at left, as issued. Very good condition.
One of the best maps of the American Plains from the post-Civil War period. This region saw a large influx of settlers and travelers in this period and it went through a number of political changes, so such a map would have had great interest. The territories of Nebraska and Kansas were created in 1854 out of the old Missouri Territory. In 1861, Kansas attained statehood, while the Nebraska Territory (which didn't become a state until a year after this map was issued) lost two-thirds of its land to the newly created Dakota Territory, and the territory of Colorado (shown here, though not mentioned in the title) was also created. In this second state of the map, a border separating Dakota from Wyoming (the latter not named) is shown; Wyoming was created out of the western part of Dakota about the time this version was issued. The western parts of the states lining the Mississippi River are shown with considerable development. The only similar areas of settlement and county creation for the rest of the map occur in eastern Texas and the eastern parts of Kansas and Nebraska. The western parts of that state and territory, along with Dakota and Colorado are depicted as relatively undeveloped.
The map contains much information on rivers, lakes, and topography, but it is for the information on human activity on the plains which makes this map of such great interest. This was issued at a time of regular conflict between Euro-Americans and Native Americans, and the locations of Indian tribes are noted throughout, including three large reservations in the Indian Territory (now Oklahoma). The reason for the conflict was the encroachment of whites into the area, shown on this map with flags to indicate forts, the routes of explorers, emigration & trade routes-such as the Santa Fe and Oregon trails, proposed wagon roads and railroads, as well as the northern and southern routes to Denver, which were clogged in the 1860s with Pike's Peak gold-rushers. A terrific map of this frontier land after the Civil War. $275
A.J. Johnson. "Johnson's Iowa and Nebraska." New York: Johnson & Ward, 1870. 17 x 22 3/4. Lithograph. Original hand color. Separations along center fold at edges. Otherwise, very good condition.
Though the copyright date is still listed as 1864, this map clearly shows greater settlement and westward movement than the edition published in that year. By 1870, settlement had extended west along the Missouri border to towns like Council Bluffs and Omaha. In the northwestern counties, around Iowa's lake region, are still sparsely populated. $150
"County Map of Dakota, Wyoming, Kansas, Nebraska and Colorado." Philadelphia: S. Augustus Mitchell, Jr., 1870. 20 x 14 3/4. Lithograph. Original hand color. With old repairs at centerfold separation. Otherwise, very good condition.
This map shows the northern plains at a time when the railroads were opening up the region to new settlement. Completed in 1869, the transcontinental railroad ran across the center of the area shown here, from Omaha to the South Pass in western Wyoming. The railroads facilitated the movement of emigrants through and into this area--already begun by the emigration to Oregon, the California Gold Rush and Pike's Peak Gold Rush(noted on this map as "Gold Region"). This led to the creation of new states, such as Kansas (1861), Nebraska (1867), as well as territories such as Colorado, Dakota, Montana, and the just created Wyoming (1869).
This detailed map provides a good topographical picture of the region, with the rivers and mountains depicted, as are the locations of the plains Indian tribes which played such an important (and tragic) role in the opening of the west. The maps also well represents the development of this region, picturing towns, forts, roads and trails. Of particular interest is the depiction of the railroads, which are indicated sometimes following the early routes of explorers, also shown on the map. The Union Pacific Railroad, completed just the year before this map was published, is shown running through Nebraska to Cheyenne and then west, while the two railroads into Denver-one to Cheyenne to meet the Union Pacific and one directly east to Kansas City-both completed just the year this map was issued, are both shown. This is a fine map of the classic "Wild West" of popular lore. $185
"County Map Of Kansas, Nebraska, Dakota, and Minnesota." From Atlas of Whiteside Co.. Chicago: Warner & Beers, 1872. 16 1/2 x 13 1/4. Lithograph. Original hand color. Very good condition. Denver.
An unusual map from the Warner & Beers Atlas of Whiteside Co. (IL), which contained besides information on Whiteside County, maps of other Illinois counties and also maps from H.H. Lloyd's Atlas of the United States. Details in Kansas and Nebraska are quite good, showing the extensive development by the early 1870s reaching west along the rail lines, which are clearly marked. Minnesota is also shown as well settled, but Dakota--not yet divided into North and South--is relatively sparsely populated except in the south eastern part. Of interest is the beginning of the Northern Pacific Railroad, built across Minnesota and as far as Bismark, Dakota. $185
"County & Township Map of the States of Kansas and Nebraska." Philadelphia: S. Augustus Mitchell, Jr., 1874. 14 1/8 x 21 3/8. Lithograph. Original hand color. Very good condition.
A Mitchell map of the two states as they were configured shortly after statehood and the completion of the transcontinental railroad. Kansas, through which the Pacific Railroad ran, was highly developed at this point, as can been clearly seen here. The Pacific R.R. is shown, as is the Atchison, Topeka & Sante Fe R.R., and a few others in the state, bringing considerable growth of towns, roads, and so forth. Nebraska shows the Union Pacific Railroad passing through, but development is considerably less, limited mostly to the east and south of the Platte River. An excellent early picture of these two plains states. $175
"Nebraska." Philadelphia: O.W. Gray, 1875. 11 3/4 x 15.. Lithograph. Original hand color. Very good condition. Denver.
An early map showing just Nebraska by itself, issued within a decade of statehood (1867). It was published by the Philadelphia firm of O.W. Gray which began its publishing around mid-century and issued regional and U.S. atlases up to the 1880s, first as O.W. Gray and then O.W. Gray & Son. This map is typical of their work, presenting the latest information available with clear and precise detail. Nebraska was well settled in the eastern parts and beginning to be developed along the Platte River, and these areas are shown broken into counties with towns, roads and railroads clearly depicted. The northwest corner of the state, the home of many Indian tribes, is left blank except for rivers. A nice picture of the state entering the last quarter of the nineteenth century. $160
"County & Township Map Of The States of Kansas and Nebraska." Philadelphia: W.M. Bradley & Bro., 1886. 14 x 21 1/2. Lithograph. Original hand color. Old separation along centerfold, expertly repaired. Very good condition.
A neatly detailed map from the Philadelphia publishing firm of William M. Bradley & Bros. While Philadelphia was no longer the main center of cartographic publishing in North America by the late nineteenth century, many fine maps were still produced there, as is evidenced by this map. The burgeoning states are shown with settlement spreading west from the Missouri River, trails, roads and railroads providing the transportation nexus by which this development progressed. The southwestern corner of Kansas and northwestern corner of Nebraska are still relatively underdeveloped, but this frontier in the states is clearly dwindling. $150
"Nebraska." New York: Arbuckle Bros. Coffee Company, 1889. Ca. 3 x 5. Chromolithograph by Donaldson Brothers. Very good condition.
From a delightful series of maps issued by the Arbuckle Bros. Coffee Company. This firm was founded by John and Charles Arbuckle of Pittsburgh, PA. They developed a machine to weigh, fill, seal and label coffee in paper packages, which allowed them to become the largest importer and seller of coffee in the world. Their most famous promotional program involved the issuing of several series of small, colorful trading cards, one of which was included in every package of Arbuckle's Coffee. These series included cards with sports, food, historic scenes, and--one of the most popular--maps. The latter cards included not only a map, but also small illustrations "which portrays the peculiarities of the industry, scenery, etc." of the region depicted. These cards are a delight, containing informative maps as well as wonderful scenes of the area mapped. $60
"County & Township Map Of The States of Kansas and Nebraska." Philadelphia: W.M. Bradley & Bro., [1887]-1891. 14 x 21 1/2. Lithograph. Original hand color. Very good condition.
A slightly later edition of the Bradley map above. The map is almost the same, except for showing new development in the two least developed parts, the southwestern corner of Kansas and northwestern corner of Nebraska. This is primarily reflected in the creation of new counties, but there is also new survey information such as the extension of rivers. $150
"Nebraska." Chicago: Rand, McNally & Co., ca. 1890. 19 x 26. Lithograph. Printed with color. Very good condition.
An early map from the Rand, McNally & Co. firm of Chicago. Impressive detail and showing much of the western part of the state that was still relatively undeveloped. $150
"Nebraska." From Rand-McNally Indexed Atlas. Chicago: Rand, McNally & Co., 1909. 19 x 26. Cereograph. Printed with color. Very good condition. Denver.
This large map is filled with detail, including counties, towns, railroads, roads, and much else. The "relative importance" of the towns is indicated by the size of the typeface. The map focuses on the railroads which by 1909 criss-crossed the state, the different lines indicated with red numbers referenced in a key at the lower left. $110

Islamic extremism
The languages of jihad
Islamic extremists are an increasingly multilingual bunch, especially online
ARABIC was for long the unchallenged language of Islamic extremism. Its speakers far outnumber any other linguistic group. Arab lands are the most fruitful recruiting grounds. Without Arabic, tyros may struggle at training camps and on the battlefield. And fluency implies piety: the language of the Koran also connotes learning and wisdom.
But the once monoglot world of jihad is increasingly multilingual. Al-Qaeda has long advocated the creation of self-starting, independent terrorist cells. Materials are being produced in the language of any part of the world that has a Muslim minority and thus potential sympathisers, says Thomas Hegghammer, an expert on violent extremism. Translations are appearing in the languages of countries where jihadist leaders want to see further activity.
In his 1,600-page opus, "The Call to Global Islamic Resistance", released in 2005, Abu Musab al-Suri, an al-Qaeda strategist, called for jihadi materials to be released in other tongues, including English. Over the past ten years grassroots activists who connect with each other online have published ever more on the internet in an ever greater variety of languages, says Aaron Zelin, a research fellow at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy, who runs a website called Jihadology.
Groups such as Fursan al-Balagh Media and Al Qadisiyah Media (which specialises in Asian languages such as Bengali, Hindi and Urdu) translate jihadi propaganda. In one document Abu Musab Abdel Wadoud, leader of al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb, warns Western powers considering action in Mali: "If you want it [sic] a war then we will meet your desire and the Great Sahara will be the grave of your soldiers and an annihilation for your money, Allah willing." Organisations such as the Global Islamic Media Front, a virtual entity, then vet such stuff and distribute it. The international version of Ansar al-Mujahidin, a big online forum, is a clamour of different languages. English is foremost, but publications are also available in Albanian, Bosnian, Filipino, French, German, Italian, Pushtu, Spanish, Urdu and Uighur.
Militant groups need to reach enemies as well as possible friends. Threats lose their impact if the infidels do not understand the scolding. On the Ansar forum an al-Qaeda statement condemns the intervention in Mali of "crusader France" and threatens retribution—in French as well as English.
Effective public-relations campaigns require not only English, but also the use of social media. Hence the eagerness of the al-Qaeda-linked Shabaab militia that controls most of south Somalia to tweet in English. Fewer than 5,000 people follow its Arabic Twitter feed (and under 500 follow the Somali one). But more than 20,000 subscribed to the English tweets by the time Twitter closed the account in January (it had carried threats to kill two Kenyan hostages if the Kenyan government did not respond to the group's demands). A new account set up this month gained 2,000 followers in a week. Its tweets have lost none of the old menace. "Arm yourself," urges one, "a #Mujahid would loathe to fight the unarmed."

Ravens sign former Bengals RB Bernard Scott
Monday - 10/28/2013, 1:50pm  ET
OWINGS MILLS, Md. (AP) -- The Baltimore Ravens have signed former Bengals running back Bernard Scott, whose four-year NFL career was interrupted last season by a torn ACL.
Scott began the 2013 season on the physically unable to perform list and was released on Sept. 17 after Cincinnati opted for Giovani Bernard as its starting running back.
The 29-year-old Scott played five games last year before the knee injury. In four NFL seasons, all with the Bengals, Scott has 1,035 yards on 55 carries and four touchdowns. He also has 29 receptions for 165 yards and has been used to return kickoffs.
He will back up Ravens running backs Ray Rice and Bernard Pierce.
Monday's move enabled the Ravens to fill the roster spot vacated by the trade of left tackle Bryant McKinnie last week.

Dual-display combines laptop and tablet functionality.
Gorilla Glass on lid is stylish looking.
Quality construction.
Intel Core i7 and 256GB solid-state drive.
Clever implementation of a dual-screen design in a slim Core i7 chassis.
Dual-display seems needlessly redundant and doesn't always work smoothly.
Trackpad required driver update to be usable.
Short battery life.
No touch on interior screen.
There are probably only a handful of situations where you'd need an outward-facing display.

I've been using this pencil for years, and I never get tired of it. It looks great alone, smudged, or worn under an iridescent shadow. Lasts long, but I would recommend using primer to keep it in place.
I've been using Laura Mercier's Kohl Eye Pencil for years. It lasts all day and is the best product I have found to use on the waterline. I find that just lining the top lid of my eye is less drastic and very appropriate for the day, and add to the bottom for an evening look.
I bought the black gold and the color is perfect and the pencil marks like a dream!!! I also was surprised that a sharpener came in the box! that was BONUS!!!
I love Black Violet eye pencil. The color is great and the liner is soft and goes on so well. I want to try more colors, so my next buy will be the black gold or brown copper.
I've been looking high and low to find a replacement for a Gold Korres eyeliner that I own. Still looking, however I got the Black gold pencil from Laura Mercier to see if it would do the trick. The color in the picture does not do the pencil justice, as you use it there is more and less black to gold ratio. The color isn't the same all around which isn't bad, but it doesn't replace my Korres yet.
I don't usually like pencils anymore but this goes on really smooth and comes with a special sharpener. It stays in place all day long. The color is rich.
Love this! I have been using for over 6 years. Gone through so many of these. The color is really great. I have really light blue eyes, black is too harsh, so this is a great substitute.
I have this eyeliner in black navy - great texture and a great look! It's easy to apply, goes on very smoothly, and is easy to smudge to make a smoky eye. Overall one of my favorite eyeliners.
