04-18-2007, 03:04 AMDisappointing stay at Casa Valerie, P.Vallarta
Unfortunately, I have to pass on a disappointing trip recently to this equisite villa in P.Vallarta. What's worse, is that Luxury Link (LL), despite three reminders, have done nothing about it.
I guess their comission is more importtant than my goodwill.
The good bits:
vThe location,is afab perch atop an incredible bluff. The rooms too were craftfully appointed, massive and very comfortable, as were the beds?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comfficeffice" />
vThe gem, of the housekeeping staff, was Maria, Luis wife, who went about her business with quiet, meticulous efficiency. The rooms were kept to a high standard of cleanliness and order.
v Catering was of an above-average standard, with special praise for starters. They were varied,healthy and filling. The soups were great &desserts first class. Mains were good, but see comment below. We assumed honesty, and as such didnt reconcile shopping receipts with him (paid about US$1200 for food for the week 2 lunches we dined out).
vHouseman, Luis was always charming, attentive and usually present. He was reactive,.
vSky TV in every room is a fantastic boon for CV, Also, each room having a dvd player is great.
In general, when one is asked to pay a gratuity of [almost] 15%, one expects near Four Seasons service. I dread to think of the expectations levels for a full villa (10 guests at $200ea), as this becomes 21%!
As a family were fortunate enough to travel 5 star around, and other than the ?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comffice:smarttags" />US, this gratuity (15%) is above anywhere weve been on any continent. To be asked to pay in advance was, in hindsight, wrong, but a condition we accepted in good faith giventhe villa'srelationship with LL. We understood that the previous house man was keeping the lion's share!
The main gripe was the hygiene levels in the kitchen, larder (pantry?) and fridge. On self-catering day, my wife was horrified to see the grime, & filth on the counter tops, inside the cupboards and drawers, and around the foodstuffs (mayo isnt even refrigerated). In the fridge, food was sitting unwrapped; and different categories were stored atop one another (ie cheese next to chicken slices).
Chef's main courses often repeated . We had the same accompaniments almost every meal: meat/fish withrice draped with fried peppers & carrots.
The staff would leave [for home] every night without clearing the dining table, leaving [empty] glasses, napkins and side plates there before departing at about 8.15pm
The clarity of the pool water deteriorated at a steep rate as the week progressed. We did have a couple of overnight rainfalls, but that shouldnt stop the chemistry. Again, I refer you back to the advance gratuity. In fact we were reluctant to let the kids in on the last 2 days.
I think its incumbent upon the either LL or CV to notify intending guests of the construction going on at the adjacent block (even at a discounted auction rate). Other than Sunday, the peacefulness is totally spoiled by the noise of the project.
Paying nearly US$12k for a week anywhere I would expect 5* service and amenities. Whilst the bricks and mortar element is unquestionably stunning (and perhaps more, save for the effeteness of Casa Valerie), the service falls well below the US$ prices.
I guess the real slug is LL customer service dept not even following up on my complaints (6 weeks now!). Shame, as it was my first experience with this company, & had hoped to use them time & time again.
Re: Disappointing stay at Casa Valerie, P.Vallarta
ghadirr...have you sent a note to Valerie Neblett at www.casavalerie.com informing her of your disappointment? Have you detailed your level of dissatisfaction with one of the LL_Moderators at LuxuryLink? What do you feel LuxuryLink should do to correct the situation? Should Casa Valerie be dropped from LuxuryLink?

Just to clarify, when a LL Moderator sees a Customer Service issue in the Community Forum,
they will forward to Luxury Link Customer Service Department.
Luxury Link Customer Service Department will then be in direct contact with the customer to assist in resolving the issue.
Senior Management has been in communication with ghadirr to resolve this issue.
Luxury Link
does all possible to work with all parties to come a mutual resolution.
In the unlikely event
Luxury Link is unable to come to agreement with one of its travel providers, will it then be removed from the web site.
Depending on the circumstance, one complaint does not constitute removal from the Luxury Link web site.
For prompt attention to Customer Service issues, please send an email to:
Thank you.

LL Community-
I was a member of a four couples stay at Casa Valarie in late March. Nearly silent construction was occurring on either side of the villa......NOT affecting one of the most spectacular views of the Bay of Banderras that one could imagine.
The complaint about the kitchen is valid in that it is the only part of the Villa that seems to have been allowed to age....loose drawers,etc. We felt the other issues are all cultural (I saw no warm Mayo!)
The staff was fabulous and the chef prepared EXACTLY WHAT WE ASKED FOR EVERY NIGHT!!!!!!
Interestingly enough--if you read the entire thread- he trained at the Four Seasons Punta Mita. I wonder if we were the only guests who enjoyed his wonderful personnality!
We loved our stay.

We were married at Casa Valerie 2 years ago. Our friends and guest were in awe at the beautiful views, we still feel we couldn't have made a better choice in location. We visited the villa months prior to the wedding to make sure the pictures matched the location. We did notice the outdated kitchen but were assured that the stove and microwave would be replaced by the wedding and drawers fixed. The walls, planters and floors were dirty from the rain but once our time to return came, the villa looked absolutely beautiful.
The stove, microwave and TV were not all fully functioning but we figured oh well, weren't there to cook and watch TV. The kitchen was clean, just outdated and in need of many repairs. There were DVD players in each room so we kept occupied with movies. The service was unforgettable.
The chef did request cash upfront to prepare the meals that we requested. Twice we didn't have the cash in hand and he gladly covered the grocery run until we settled at the end of the week. We did share the home with 4 couples so we were all well prepared for the $200 a couple service tip. The staff worked hard running food, drinks, even a high chair up and down 5 flights of stairs daily. We traveled with 3 toddlers and daily our clothes were washed and waiting for us neatly folded on our bed. She would even iron my outfit for the day when requested. The tip was on the high end but we all felt how hard the crew worked for us and it was well deserved.

03-25-2011, 07:28 PMI spent a long four day weekend with my husband and four other friends to celebrate my birthday and our wedding anniversary. Casa Valeria was the perfect fit! We loved everything about it, especially the pool, views and the entertainment area and outdoor dining.
Everyone that joined us love to cook so we all brought food and each person chose a meal to sponsor. The kitchen was CLEAN and well appointed. We lacked for nothing and the gas pro BBQ was an added bonus. The staff was great and everything was perfect.
We spent a few evenings watching movies and having wine and left overs, chit chatting and play cards- before a late night dip in the pool under the stars.
We stayed November 2010
I cannot say enough about Casa Valerie. We wish we would have had at least a week to spend there but the time we did spend there was memorable, unique and worth every Peso! Also this would be a GREAT villa for a wedding, a big group or a family get away!

Adventurers, unite! Our latest collection is inspired by renegade travelers. We're thinking about summer road trips and warm‐weather rambling—the kinds of days where an itinerary (or a map) is out of the question.
Exley's charm lies in its shape: a flattering take on the teardrop, rimmed with a just‐right metallic shade that offsets both the fairest and most sunburned of tones.
With its larger lens and wider frame, the Raskin is a sharp companion for on‐the‐road affairs and calamities.
Both mavericks and traditionalists will appreciate the classic, polished Flannery—a medium‐fit pair perfect for playing hooky or completing more stately activities.

In the current tier Druids are the most effective healers on the majority of encounters. Though the actual value of other healers is often understated when considering the additional benefits and cooldowns they provide, a druid's cooldowns are primarily a buff to themselves where as other class cooldowns are buffs or mitigation granted to others.
You are already comfortable with Druid healing and adapting to a new class will take time. Additionally, Druids have the highest efficiency due to Innervate (Innervate out performs all other cooldowns in 10 man). So no, it likely wouldn't work as well. Also your current composition of healers is fine. There will always be some competition for gear regardless so just because you have a Balance Druid is not a really good reason to swap. The most you can actually get is 9 different gear selections however in a 10 man raid there will always be at least one conflict.
Plate Tank
Plate Intellect
Plate Strength
Mail Intellect
Mail Agility
Leather Intellect
Leather Agility
Cloth Spirit
Cloth Hit
Those are the nine types. No matter how you try to balance your raid, you will always have at least one conflict for gear.
Whatever you want.
Holy would likely serve a similar function in the raid as it is closer to raid healing than Discipline, however, Discipline provides some very potent raid cooldowns. The big difference in raid healing will be that a Druid would buff their own throughput in order to heal more damage and deal with increased damage in that matter where as a Discipline Priest would use an ability like Power Word: Barrier to mitigate damage making it easier to heal without increasing their throughput.
In conclusion...
You're trying to justify bringing a priest because you don't have one now, but when you do that then you don't have a Restoration Druid. I'd say just play what you want and to hell with the gear conflicts because on some degree they aren't avoidable. Now if you "WANT" to play a priest, go ahead. But don't try and justify it over stuff like that, play it because you want to, not because it's convenent for loot.

"I haven't slept in 10 weeks," says Lindsay Condefer, looking far more energetic than most people in that situation would. She wears a necklace with a picture of Lentil, her French bulldog puppy, as a pendant — a fan sent a whole bag of them. The underside of one forearm is covered in a tattoo she got for Lentil's four-week birthday — it's photorealistic; Lentil's severely cleft palate is unmistakable. Her friend Shane O'Neill does her tattoos for free, though "he's harder to get an appointment with now because he won that stupid Ink Master show," she jokes. "I have all my dogs on my back … six dogs and the Virgin Mary looking over them." O'Neill has been working Condefer's four current dogs into the scene, too. But in March, she asked for something else. "I was, like, 'Shane, I have this puppy and he went viral on the Internet and I love him so much and I'm so scared I'm gonna lose him, and I want him on me forever!'"
She brought Lentil along to that tattoo appointment; she brings him with her nearly everywhere. At the time, he was smaller than the tattoo. Now, he's grown to about the same size — Condefer's been feeding him through a tube every three hours, day and night. When this story is published, she won't have had more than a couple hours of sleep at a time in about three months.
Condefer knew she was signing up for sleeplessness when she packed up a bunch of heating padsand drove two hours to a fellow rescue volunteer's house in New Jersey: "I've learned over the years that I'm really golden" when it comes to sleep deprivation, she says. "I can bottle-feed a litter of puppies and not sleep for weeks … ask any new mom how they do it."
Lentil's more complicated — his case is so severe that he can't eat or drink on his own. His whole litter was a cleft-palate perfect storm, to the point that a medical institution is interested in getting a blood sample for a genetic study. "Apparently it's really uncommon for an entire litter to be affected, and it's even more uncommon for a case to have all four deformities — the nose, the lip, hard and soft palate," says Condefer. Two puppies were stillborn, two were handed to Condefer in a cardboard box that February day. They looked so tiny, she said, "like little beans," that she immediately named them Edamame and Lentil.
She also knew she was signing up for potential sorrow — hence the impulse to name them immediately. The cruel irony of rescue work is that people who care enough about animals to do it are self-selecting to sometimes have to watch them die. "I think the general public just doesn't get that," says Condefer. "Sometimes you can bottle-feed a perfectly healthy newborn and wake up an hour later and it's gone. … That's just life, and that's the way that it works."
That's extra true for baby animals with severe health issues; cleft palates, for example, frequently lead to pneumonia or asphyxiation. That day in the car, Edamame already had pneumonia so severe that Condefer could feel fluid in the puppy's lungs when she picked her up. "She made it 17 hours with me," says Condefer. "What gets me through everyday life is that when she died, she was named, and she was loved."
What Condefer didn't realize was that she was signing up to type messages like this to tens of thousands of fans after Lentil, for reasons that still mystify her, became the Internet's Puppy of the Moment:
You guys are all so sweet and generous! Lentil will never 'go without' — that's for sure!! Please know, that it isn't necessary to send anything … your love and support is all we need! … One puppy does not need hundreds of toys.
Why does Lentil have 64,000 Facebook fans — nearly six times as many as the Inquirer? "I have no clue whatsoever," says Condefer. "We're not doing anything differently than we have for the past 12 years." She'd done similar stuff for other animals from Street Tails, her special-needs rescue. The blog where she writes as Lentil's "Foster Mom" just … really took off.
"I don't have an explanation for it, and I wish I did — I laugh, because people are, like, 'Foster Mom's a marketing genius!' And I can't pay my rent!" She laughs ruefully. The constant drop-ins from fans seeking the famous puppy are wreaking havoc on her small pet store, though she says if it wasn't that, it'd be something else.
She wishes she had something to tell other rescue operations who have written asking for advice about getting Lentil-scale attention, but she's never been keyed into the cute factor herself. "The whole puppy thing is this phenomenon that I never got. Everyone loves a puppy. I love senior, medically-messed-up dogs."
The adoption center at Street Tails is full of damaged dogs from the city's big animal-control shelter; Condefer jokes that she picks them "according to which eye they're missing and which leg needs to be amputated." On this day, there's Maxine, a young shi tzu who "started having grand mal seizures two days into a trial adoption, so she cost us $3,000 last week" in hospital bills after the family brought her back; a white pit bull named Jaguar who's figuring out how to walk as a tripod after having a car-shattered hind leg amputated; and Curry, a bald, shivering Chihuahua. Her mange isn't detrimental to her health, says Condefer: "It just looks awful and smells real bad." She scratches Curry's head, switching to a puppy-talk voice. "Aw, it smells so bad."
The dogs at Street Tails tend to have a harder time finding homes — the more steps a dog is away from being a perfectly formed, friendly puppy, the harder it is for that dog to get adopted. Unless you're Lentil. Condefer's had hundreds of requests (sometimes bordering on demands) to adopt him.
"Yeah, everyone loves Lentil," she says. But this period of mass appeal might not last much longer. "Lentil's top teeth are coming in, and when they come in, they're coming straight out the front." She points out the little dots on a close-up of his mouth where teeth are straining to emerge from gums — and indeed, it seems he's going to look sort of like an inside-out Sarlacc pit. "So I always laugh: 'Good thing he's got his friends now.'"
And does Lentil ever have a lot of friends. They've already donated enough money that his very expensive upcoming surgery is completely covered, and have flooded him with gifts. "People are incredible with sending packages — they want him to have 'X' special toy that their dog loves, so they mail it to him. He's got buttloads of toys. … Which is amazing!" (Note: Condefer bookends all statements that might be taken as complaints about Lentil's legions of fans with effusive praise for how amazing, generous and wonderful they are. In the interest of space, we can't include all of these, but please imagine them there.)
"I made that post because I don't want people to feel like they have to [send toys]. Because he'll see everything and he'll play with everything, but you know what? He doesn't need all of it." She just wanted to be clear with the fans that most of the hundreds of toys she was getting were eventually being passed on to non-famous dogs at Street Tails. "I would hope that would make people feel even better — like, 'Oh, I didn't let one dog have an awesome day, I let 12 dogs have an awesome day.'"
She continues, "I love that he has so much support. But some people don't get it." Lentil's too young to have had all his vaccinations, and his cleft palate leaves him prone to getting pneumonia, like Edamame. "Over my dead body will I sacrifice his health just because someone wants to meet him."
She's referring to another thing she didn't realize she was signing up for: becoming a quasi-fugitive from her puppy's many devoted fans. "Things changed when [Lentil] turned into this strange Internet thing," she says. When she meets up with this writer, she's actively dodging one persistent fan who's been staking out Liberties Walk in hopes of catching Lentil at Street Tails or Chic Petique. Condefer usually brings Lentil with her everywhere, but she's getting a weird vibe about this particular fan, so she's left the dog home.
The first unannounced Lentil pilgrim appeared the day the Facebook page went up, she says, "and it just gets worse and worse." She estimates her storefronts now get a dozen Lentil pilgrims a day, more on weekends. "It's gotten really hard. I can't work in my shop anymore," she says; her payroll, which she already struggled to make, has gone through the roof. But she's adamant about not using Lentil for financial purposes. Lentil is a hugely marketable quantity, and fans quickly chipped in enough money to cover his surgeries and more. However, the excess is all going to charities — the French Bulldog Rescue Network, who arranged Lentil's rescue; a charity that benefits kids with cleft palates; the rent on the Street Tails adoption center.
"Street Tails and Chic Petique were my two full-time jobs, and then with the puppy I took on a third," says Condefer. She gestures at her constantly pinging phone. "I wasn't counting on this fourth one, which is Facebook." Lentil's fans seem nearly as high-maintenance as Lentil. Just as he needs milk through a tube eight times a day, they're hungry for posts, photos and videos on Lentil's Facebook page, blog and Twitter account, all of which Condefer is constantly updating. "I have to! People get angry! Well, not angry — people get nervous." When she's less than prompt putting up her daily post wishing everyone good morning, she's peppered with questions from worried fans: Is everything OK? Is Lentil OK?
It's a valid concern. The "good morning" posts are essentially a cheerier way of saying "Lentil didn't die last night."
"I live in fear," says Condefer. "Even right now, he's not next to me, so I could go home and he vomited and — it's done." This is why she hasn't let anyone babysit while she gets a full night of sleep: She imagines asking, "'I just want to sleep, can you take him and feed him?' And, God forbid, something happens … I would never forgive myself."
Lentil's fragile life has been in the public eye since the French Bulldog Rescue Network put up a page for him when he was about a week old. "I get why they did that!" says Condefer — he was clearly going to need serious surgery, and they wanted to start raising the money immediately. However, she generally doesn't put young animals in the public eye until she feels fairly certain they're going to live, and "wouldn't have told the world about Lentil until he was older." This amount of attention is slightly terrifying.
Most of Lentil's 64,000 fans are incredibly protective of their "little bean." A week or so ago, Condefer posted about Lentil Fest, the series of concerts and fundraisers going on around the city this weekend. "This one poor soul writes, 'Why don't you get surgery for this dog instead of exploiting him?' … I'm, like, 'Oh my God, this guy's house is going to get firebombed.'" She calmed down the hundreds of people flaming the guy, despite still sounding a little irritated: "Seriously, you expect me to be, like, 'Really? I should get this dog surgery? I hadn't even thought about that!'"
Swallow, and pay attention to what the back of your throat is doing. That's your soft palate, a sort of trapdoor that prevents air from getting into your stomach and food from getting into your lungs and nose. Lentil's soft palate is so messed up that anything he puts in his mouth has about a 50/50 chance of being inhaled instead of swallowed.
Going by just the videos and photos, you might think that Lentil's famous cleft palate is mostly just weird-looking. In person, it's clear that this is profoundly disabling. Lentil is teething, and as he frolics around Condefer's backyard, about once a minute, he will try to chew a blade of grass or a stick. Either Condefer or a friend, taking turns shadowing him, will then lean over and gently pluck it out of his mouth, lest it accidentally go into his lungs. (To see how often this happens, check out the videos Emily shot while she was chilling in Condefer's backyard — it's pretty crazy.)
But this past Monday morning, when he went in for a surgery consultation at Penn Vet, Lentil reaped the rewards of Condefer's grueling feeding regimen: At 6.5 pounds, he was more than big enough to undergo the surgery to fix his cleft palate. (Before seeing him, the surgeon had been hoping that he would be at least 3.5 pounds.) Lentil's surgery is scheduled for May 28. The surgeon was "totally confident about being able to help him," says Condefer. If all goes well, he could be eating and drinking like a normal dog by the Fourth of July.
But Lentil's still going to look sort of like a Sarlacc pit — the surgery is only to repair the plumbing, nothing cosmetic. "We discussed his cleft lip. He said, 'We can fix it, but that'll be an elective surgery.' And I'm, like, 'Nope! Not doing elective anything.' We want him under anesthesia the least amount of time possible."
Her worry? "Now the big question is if they'll allow me to stay overnight — I was, like, 'I can't leave him!'" At the end of May, she won't have had a full night's sleep for over four months. He'll be surrounded by some of the world's best surgeons at this particular operation. Wouldn't this be a chance to finally get some rest?
Not a chance, says Condefer. "I'll be in a panic! 'Oh my God, he doesn't know where he is, he doesn't know these people.'" Once he starts eating on his own, maybe — then she'll sleep. But for now, she's staying awake and sticking close. "Lentil and I now have this bond. … I go everywhere with him; he's never lived a life without me. So we move forward on that together as a team."
Lentil Fest runs through Sunday, May 5, at various venues; for details, see ph.ly/lentilfest. To see those videos of Lentil hanging out in the backyard trying to eat things, check us out on YouTube.

Disable Firefox's Command-Arrows page jump shortcuts
The problem with losing text from a rich-text editor when pressing Cmd-Left Arrow still exists in Firefox 3.1 beta (which will become Firefox 3.5 one day). While keyconfig is not yet declared compatible with the newer versions, here's how to get keyconfig running in Firefox 3.1 beta/3.5. After doing so, hitting Cmd-Left Arrow just gets you to the beginning of the current line, rather than taking you all the way back to the previous page:
In the list of keyconfig's bindings (menu Tools, Keyconfig) you'll now have to disable "goBackKb: Cmd-Left Arrow" and "goForwardKb: Cmd-Right Arrow". I'm not sure why these "goBackKb" and "goForwardKb" are no longer translated into "Back" and "Forward" like in Firefox 3.0, but the effect is the same. The keyconfig settings can also be seen when typing about:config in the location bar, and then searching for keyconfig. |

Christian Living
True Christian living requires us to live according to Kingdom standards which bring Heaven to earth
Christian Perfection
By: Frank L. Hoffman
Jesus said, "Therefore you are to be perfect, as your heavenly Father is
perfect." (Matthew 5:48)
Chapter 19 F - Are We to Speak of Our Perfection?
(Wesley's writings are in bold)
As we enter this sixth section of the nineteenth part of John Wesley's A Plain Account of Christian Perfection, we see that the attendees at the conference are still asking questions that seem to be trying to find ways around having to accept the fact that we are to seek Christian perfection. Now, to be fair to those who attended that conference in 1759, their attitude was no different from that of the vast majority of modern day clergy who are afraid to admit that they are imperfect and need to seek God's heavenly perfection, just as their congregants need to do.
I personally believe that the first step in seeking Christian perfection is our open admission that we are imperfect and need to mature in God's perfect love for the glory of God. We should leave out the details, as that could sound like we are boasting of our sinful nature. However, the very fact that we admit that we are seeking to become perfect as our heavenly Father is perfect is a form of speaking of our perfection.
With this in mind, let's look at the following question posed at the conference:
"Question. Suppose one had attained to this, would you advise him to speak of it?
"Answer. At first, perhaps, he would scarce be able to refrain, the fire would be so hot within him; his desire to declare the loving kindness of the Lord carrying him away like a torrent. But afterward he might, and then it would be advisable not to speak of it to them that know not God (it is most likely it would only provoke them to contradict and blaspheme), nor to others, without some particular reason, without some good in view. And then he should have especial care to avoid all appearance of boasting; to speak with the deepest humility and reverence, giving all the glory to God.
The question that is asked is presented in a way that limits the speaking of our Christian perfection until people have already achieved it, a state which Wesley openly admits we will never fully reach upon this corrupted earth. Instead of repeating his position on the matter, Wesley wisely answers what appears to be a mocking question in a way that seems to chastise this person for not even trying to seek God's heavenly perfection. In his answer, Wesley also ties together our being born again with our desire to both seek and speak of our Christian perfection.
I also believe that one of the "particular reasons" for speaking about Christian perfection, upon which Wesley doesn't elaborate, is for the encouragement of others, which is the purpose of my commentary. To do otherwise would be un-Christian. This un-Christian interpretation seems to be borne out in the asking of the next question:
"Question. But would it not be better to be entirely silent, not to speak of it at all?
By not speaking of Christian perfection at all, we may avoid the appearance of boasting, but we also totally miss the opportunity of encouraging others to glorify God through their changed and perfecting lives. Note how John Wesley wisely answers the question:
"Answer. By silence he might avoid many crosses, which will naturally and necessarily ensue, if he simply declare, even among believers, what God has wrought in his soul. If, therefore, such a one were to confer with flesh and blood, he would be entirely silent. But this could not be done with a clear conscience; for undoubtedly he ought to speak. Men do not light a candle to put it under a bushel; much less does the all-wise God. He does not raise such a monument of his power and love to hide it from all mankind. Rather, he intends it as a general blessing to those who are simple of heart. He designs thereby not barely the happiness of that individual person but the animating and encouraging others to follow after the same blessing. His will is 'that many shall see it' and rejoice, 'and put their trust in the Lord.' Nor does anything under heaven more quicken the desires of those who are justified than to converse with those whom they believe to have experienced a still higher salvation. This places that salvation full in their view, and increases their hunger and thirst after it—an advantage which must have been entirely lost had the person so saved buried himself in silence.
In his answer, Wesley refers to Matthew 5:14-16...
14 "You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden;
15 nor does anyone light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on the lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house.
16 "Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.
NASUUnfortunately, I have encountered more negative witnessing in the churches than positive affirmations and encouragement to seek God's heavenly perfection. This is when clergy boast of their imperfections and encourage others to follow in their footsteps. One example of this would be a "sport hunting" pastor, who speaks of his exploits and encourages others to follow him in his killing. Yet James 3:1 says, "Let not many of you become teachers, my brethren, knowing that as such we shall incur a stricter judgment." It stands to reason that a pastor teaching about the joys of killing is treading on spiritually dangerous ground.
A Jewish rabbi would never do this, because a rabbi properly understands that the Bible teaches us that we are not to take pleasure in the death or suffering of any living being. Pastors absolutely know that the Scriptures teach us that there will be no death in heaven (Revelation 21:4). Thus to knowingly take a life is to counter the very prayer that Jesus taught us (Matthew 6:10), that God's will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Furthermore, for a person to knowingly kill another living being, he or she must harden their heart toward the feelings of that being.
In my opinion, those who fight against our seeking Christian perfection are those who selfishly don't want to change their lifestyle for the better. If people don't seek God's heavenly will, but rather seek to live in and perpetuate the corrupted state of this earth, they are not worshiping our Father in heaven, but the devil who rules the earth (Ephesians 2:2), (Hebrews 2:14), (1 John 3:8).
The prophet Isaiah reached out in the Spirit of God and saw the perfection of God reestablished in the Peaceable Kingdom, and he wrote (Isaiah 11:6-9 NASV):
And the wolf will dwell with the lamb,
And the leopard will lie down with the kid,
And the calf and the young lion and the fatling together;
And a little boy will lead them.
Also the cow and the bear will graze;
Their young will lie down together;
And the lion will eat straw like the ox.
And the nursing child will play by the hole of the cobra,
And the weaned child will put his hand on the viper's den.
They will not hurt or destroy in all My holy mountain,
For the earth will be full of the knowledge of the Lord
As the waters cover the sea.

Drug: EmSam
Selegiline Transdermal System (STS); monoamine oxidase inhibitor patch
Detailed Description:
Most current treatments for bipolar depression have been shown to be of modest effectiveness. There is some literature which suggests that Monoamine Oxidase Inhibitors (MAOIs) have greater efficacy than tricyclic antidepressants, and that they are effective for treatment-resistant depression of all types, both unipolar and bipolar. The MAOI selegiline has demonstrated antidepressant efficacy. EmSam, a selegiline transdermal system, provides central nervous system but not intestinal/liver MAO inhibition without clinically significant increases in sensitivity to dietary tyramine. This transdermal system appears to be associated with fewer side effects and increased safety relative to oral MAOI's. This pilot study will evaluate the efficacy of EmSam in bipolar depression.

Watching the article on the ABC News tonight... I see that BNV has taken a leaf out of the AGF book and decided to portray cyclists as a bunch of lawless, aggressive, dangerous idiots who need to be controlled by God's police. Thanks for that.
ONE person killed by cyclists in 2006. 1,000 killed every year by motorists. But that's just how things are, right?

Things look quiet here. But I've been doing a lot of blogging at dan.langille.org because I prefer WordPress now. Not all my posts there are FreeBSD related. I am in the midst of migrating The FreeBSD Diary over to WordPress (and you can read about that here). Once the migration is completed, I'll move the FreeBSD posts into the new FreeBSD Diary website.
The home page for phorum is http://www.phorum.org/
The phorum mailing list archive is at http://www.progressive-comp.com/Lists/?l=phorum&r=1&w=2#phorum.
phorum also requires mySQL, which you should install before you install php3.
I moved this tarball into a subdirectory of an existing website. Actually, I did this:
cd /path/to/website mkdir forum fetch ftp://ftp.phorum.org/phorum308.tar.gz tar xvfz phorum308.tar.gz cd phorum308
The first thing you need to read is readme.txt and then security.txt.
I mean NOW. You're not going to take my word and just do what I did are you? Imagine the security holes I could create in your system if you did that.
I created a .htaccess file in my forum directory and added the following to it:
<FILES admin.php3> require group admin </FILES> <Files forums.inf> Order Deny,Allow Deny From All </Files> <Files forums.inf.bak> Order Deny,Allow Deny From All </Files>
Just follow the directions in security.txt titled IV) Securing the Admin Script.
You might want to read Protected Apache directories for a bit of detail.
See also, Additional security options.
# mysql -u root -p Enter password: Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g. Your MySQL connection id is 8 to server version: 3.22.22 Type 'help' for help. mysql> create database forum; Query OK, 1 row affected (0.13 sec) mysql> GRANT -> select, insert, update, -> create, alter, delete, drop -> ON -> forum.* -> TO -> phorum@localhost -> IDENTIFIED BY -> 'password'; Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.01 sec)
Then I modified common.inc. Here is what I changed:
$inf_path="./myconfigstuff"; // no ending slash $include_path="./myincludes"; // no ending slash $admindir="myadmindir";
These are to be used as a guideline and a basis for deciding where to put what. You could always leave them in the default locations. I chose not to.
If you want to customize a particular aspect of phorum, the first step is to figure this out which file to look in. The URL for any messages contains something like this:
The other point is to locate something contanst in the message which is near to what you actually want to change. In this case, the domain name appears just to the right of the author. I chose that as my target. The correct way to do this is to look at your language module. In my case, that is english.lang. I searched for "Author" and found this line:
$lAuthor = "Author";
$lAuthor is what you want to look for within read.php3. In that file, I found this line:
<?PHP echo $lAuthor;?>: <?PHP echo $author; ?> (<?PHP echo $host; ?>)

See $host? Remove that section of the code and the line becomes:
<?PHP echo $lAuthor;?>: <?PHP echo $author; ?>

That's it. The host is now gone from all messages but is still stored in the database if you need to find it.
You should now follow the rest of the directions in readme.txt. For the most part, it involves browsing to admin.php3 and using that to set up your database and forums.
--- post.php3.original Fri Jan 21 16:34:31 2000 +++ post.php3 Fri Jan 21 16:44:38 2000 @@ -175,13 +175,13 @@ $email=$Mod; $author = "$author"; $subject = "$subject"; - $body="$body"; + $body="$body"; $host="$StaffHost"; } else{ $body=eregi_replace("</*HTML>", "", $body); if($AllowHtml){ - $body="$body"; + $body="$body"; } }
This patch is also available from phorum.post.no.html.patch.txt.
If you browse to admin.php3 and you get the above message, you have a database issue. Perhaps, tou haven't specified the correct password, your database name is wrong, etc.
Ensure forums.inf is writable by your webserver. In my case, I made sure forums.inf was writeable by group www.
If you are going to rename admin.php3, remember that the file contains self-references which must also be changed. By my count, there are 10 instances which need to be changed.
If you are going to rename forums.inf, remember to also modify the references within:
And of course, remember to change the .htaccess file to refer to the new file names. See the Security for detail.
If I've missed anything, please add your comments.

Salem is a town in Rockingham County, New Hampshire, United States. The population was 28,776 at the 2010 census.1 Salem is a marketing and distributing center north of Boston, with a major amusement attraction, Canobie Lake Park, and a large shopping mall, the Mall at Rockingham Park.
This section needs additional citations for verification. (April 2012) |
The area was first settled in 1652. As early as 1736, Salem was the "North Parish" of Methuen, Massachusetts, or "Methuen District." In 1741, when the boundary line between Massachusetts and New Hampshire was fixed, the "North Parish" became part of New Hampshire, and was given the name "Salem," taken from nearby Salem, Massachusetts. It was incorporated in 1750 by Colonial Governor Benning Wentworth.
In 1902, Canobie Lake Park was established in Salem by the Massachusetts Northeast Street Railway Company, to encourage leisure excursions on its trolleys. The plan was successful, and the enterprise quickly became one of the leading resorts of its type in New England. Crowds arrived from all over, including the nearby mill towns of Haverhill, Lawrence, Lowell and Methuen in Massachusetts, and Manchester and Nashua in New Hampshire. Factory workers and others found respite strolling along tree-lined promenades, between flower-beds or beside the lake. Rides, arcades and a dance hall provided lively entertainments. The rise of the automobile, however, brought the decline of the trolley. But Canobie Lake Park, one of the few former street railway amusement resorts still in existence, continues to be popular.2
Other features of Salem's tourism history include Rockingham Park Race Track, the first horse race track in New England, and "America's Stonehenge", a curiosity (formerly "Mystery Hill"). A recent attraction in town is the Icenter, a skating arena.
Starting in the 1950s, Salem developed rapidly as part of Greater Boston, with suburban-style residential neighborhoods and a long strip of commercial development along NH Route 28. Recent (c. 2006) commercial construction has continued to focus on Route 28, as well as on the commercial zone off Exit 2 on Interstate 93.
According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of 25.9 square miles (67 km2), of which 24.7 sq mi (64 km2) is land and 1.2 sq mi (3.1 km2) is water, comprising 4.49% of the town. Salem is drained by the Spicket River and Policy Brook. Canobie Lake is on the western boundary, Arlington Mill Reservoir is in the north, and World End Pond is in the southeast. The highest point in Salem is the summit of Gordons Hill, at 380 feet (120 m) above sea level, along the town's western border.
At the 2000 census3, there were 28,112 people, 10,402 households and 7,603 families residing in the town. The population density was 1,138.0 per square mile (439.4/km²). There were 10,866 housing units at an average density of 439.9 per square mile (169.9/km²). The racial makeup of the town was 95.01% White, 0.55% African American, 0.21% Native American, 2.27% Asian, 0.06% Pacific Islander, 0.83% from other races, and 1.07% from two or more races. Hispanic or Latino of any race were 1.96% of the population.
There were 10,402 households of which 34.3% had children under the age of 18 living with them, 60.6% were married couples living together, 8.7% had a female householder with no husband present, and 26.9% were non-families. 21.2% of all households were made up of individuals and 7.5% had someone living alone who was 65 years of age or older. The average household size was 2.69 and the average family size was 3.16.
Age distribution was 25.3% under the age of 18, 6.2% from 18 to 24, 31.7% from 25 to 44, 25.3% from 45 to 64, and 11.5% who were 65 years of age or older. The median age was 38 years. For every 100 females there were 99.1 males. For every 100 females age 18 and over, there were 96.9 males.
The median household income was $58,090, and the median family income was $67,278. Males had a median income of $46,330 versus $31,031 for females. The per capita income for the town was $26,170. About 3.1% of families and 4.1% of the population were below the poverty line, including 5.1% of those under age 18 and 7.6% of those age 65 or over.
Salem public schools spend $5,544 per student. The average school expenditure in the U.S. is $5,678. There are about 16.1 students per teacher in Salem.4

As a growing number of biologic drugs are treatments of choice for an expanding list of autoimmune disorders, inflammatory diseases, and certain cancers, bioassays play a critical role in establishing the functional integrity and potency of these products. Hosted by the United States Pharmacopeial Convention (USP), the Fifth Bioassay Workshop will take place on December 4-5, 2012, at USP's headquarters in Rockville, Md. The workshop will focus on the development, monitoring and validation/revalidation of bioassays. It will feature perspectives from manufacturers, regulators and other stakeholders on such topics as the replacement of animal-based assays with cell-based assays; USP's standards for bioassays; software selection for bioassay development and other related topics.
According to Roger L. Williams, M.D., chief executive officer of USP, "Developing standards for modern medicines such as biologics is a complicated yet important undertaking. Through forums like USP's Fifth Bioassay Workshop, manufacturers, regulators and other stakeholders can exchange ideas and strategies for approaching important issues such as bioassay development. Being able to share information and expertise undergirds our ability to create standards that help to ensure the quality of the global drug supply."
Conventional pharmaceuticals are made through chemical routes and have small molecular structures. Biologics-particularly more modern ones such as recombinant proteins and monoclonal antibodies-are larger and more complex in their makeup, and are derived from living cells or organisms. As a result, it is not possible to fully characterize biologic drugs in the same way that chemical drugs are characterized using commonly-applied analytical techniques and procedures. Bioassays are used to assign or confirm drug potency and to validate that a drug is functioning as expected, usually by comparison to a known reference standard. Since manufacturing processes for biologics are continuously changing throughout the development and life cycle of a biologic drug, bioassays are important for maintaining the integrity of a drug's potency and for determining that the drug is continuing to work in the manner in which it is intended.

Boys & Girls Clubs offer that and more. Club programs and services promote and enhance the development of boys and girls by instilling a sense of competence, usefulness, belonging and influence. Boys & Girls Clubs are a safe place to learn and grow, all while having fun. They are truly The Positive Place For Kids.
10% of the sale of this medium roast Central American coffee will go directly to Chaffee County Boys and Girls Club in their effort to build positive places for our children. This is a 12 ounce package.

I am a wimp when it comes to hot seasonings. I suppose I should warn people.
