A MAJOR challenge exists for the small modern Christian church as we are yet mandated by Jesus Christ to proclaim the gospel message. The gospel, simply stated, is that though a sinful people, we have been saved by the grace of God through faith in Jesus Christ. This faith has been and still is… a gift from God, a gift provided by the Holy Spirit. The Spirit was given to the tiny gathering of apostles during a Pentecost festival held nearly two millennia ago. However, the same eternal Spirit of God hovered over the church so that it grew worldwide. That same Spirit is close around me as I write this article about small church ministry. Through the Spirit, God whispers wisdom from scripture into my ear as I type, and guides my Enter key.
What presses upon me is that each week in our little mission church, I normally end the Sunday worship experience by saying, "Let us go in peace, to love and serve the Lord!" This being said, we go… and to some degree we serve… but the echo fades as the week rolls on. The realization again reappears for us and most Christians in this American society, that serving the Lord does not center upon proclaiming the gospel so that the church grows. This is true at least in many small towns and rural areas..
The realization hits many churches that we are not growing. Excuses loom. For example, I live in a rather busy, small town that is filled with a lot of nice people. Our congregation is a tiny mission outpost that gathers some very active and busy people. But we haven't gathered new persons to worship with us in more than a year. As I think about this, I tend to explain this stagnation away by a theory of relativity… in desperation we look for anyone to just gather in sameness for the next Sunday AM… and bring a relative once in a while. Overall, it often seems that a demon has taken a scatter gun to Christian witness in our town. Christian community is getting smaller and smaller. Therefore, I count us as blessed last year when our congregation held its population steady… while some churches linger closer to closure.
But that is deceptive excuse. Our small church, which shares the building with another faith family from another denomination, is now losing a large number of persons. These folks, an active family, are slated to leave our town for work in a faraway place. In the midst of this foreboding coming upon us, my mind is guided to a scriptural word picture. I am reminded of old Simeon as he waited in prayer for the salvation of Israel...
Now there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon, and this man was righteous and devout, looking for the consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was upon him. And it had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he should not see death before he had seen the Lord's Christ.
And inspired by the Spirit he came into the temple; and when the parents brought in the child Jesus, to do for him according to the custom of the law, he took him up in his arms and blessed God and said.., "Lord, now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace, according to thy word; for mine eyes have seen thy salvation which thou hast prepared in the presence of all peoples, a light for revelation to the Gentiles, and for glory to thy people Israel." (Luke 2:25-26).
Looking for the salvation of Christian expression in our community, therefore, while I know that the Spirit is present in our church… I feel like Simeon in my waiting that the gospel voice be surely heard in the public square. If our congregation does not do the task of evangelism in the public square, it and other churches will rightly fail.
Beer Can Crushing?
Sociologically speaking, I see that our Christian denominations and traditional church structures are slowly failing across the nation. In recent decades many faith expressions have suffered crushing statistics. Worship has become sparsely attended, and this decline falls more so as faithful elder members die. This fact is especially accelerated for any size church or denomination that suffers inner turmoil while standing firmly against certain modern trends. Churches that have condemned such practices as alternate marital lifestyles and abortion seem to be hardest hit. A bright spot that I have noted locally, however, is that "fundamentalist" churches have been given to turn to "entertainment theology". This down-home talent helps to maintain, and even grow their existence and outreach. But in my view, care must be taken. A demonic trade can be present. Some of these venues do wonderful outreach, but only mention salvation through Christ as an afterthought. This tactic is excused so to envelop the newbie attendee with personal human relationships, and hopefully, eventually… promote a "relationship with Christ".
While this bait and switch does gather persons to the gospel message to some degree, the entertainment shell game does not fit my own pastoral skill set. For me, I see that this entertainment trend can be a hindrance, especially if the music, etc… draws more importance for the disciple than the sermon and holy meal. I ask, "Do we really need to soft pedal sainthood to a supporting role behind the bass guitar?"
But if we do not favor this method, how do we cease the slide toward becoming extinct? Have orthodox faith expressions fallen so far from mainline favor that our congregations shall be whited sepulchers sitting alongside a rural road like a decorative, recycled milk can? By observation we can see that modern lifestyles lure many of our faithful away from the church, and hinder others from joining us. These lifestyles promote a believer's casual interaction or sporadic attendance within the faith community.
Living in a small town and rural society then, I see where the church is often replaced by other realms. School activities draw persons into a liberal secular life that becomes prominent for young families This is such that public schools now schedule sporting events on Sunday mornings without excuse or afterthought about the faithful who would usually attend church. Indeed demons do shell games as subtle diversions occur within political arenas, labor unions, fraternal organizations and businesses. Any church community that holds dearly to traditional biblical standards for human relationships quickly becomes archaic to a family having youth whose biggest Sunday challenge is how to get everyone to football or band practice. The parents often feel justified to take this busy path, hoping to dissuade young family members from getting involved with alcoholic and drug subcultures. Thus we in the church see that Sunday School may suffer second string to softball.
Social issues such as heterosexual marriage, abortion and tolerance for all religions rise to lure faithful parishioners so strongly that whole traditional denominations are tumbling. The locks on the church doors have been picked by the demonic so that the churches accommodate liberal, progressive theologies just to keep membership rolls from lessening. By doing so, a supple, whited sepulcher stays financially in place though emptied of its faith-filled life. As this occurs, too many ministers find themselves relegated to doing feckless "social ministry" projects. These often cast aside feeding poor widows and children or caring for the ill and dying; replacing these worthy ministries as "spiritual guides" preen in the public square. These cling to car seats in marches supporting gay pride or speak in labor union drives to raise minimum wage… all the while the nave in the church sits emptied.
This modern atomization of our Christian small town population is being fought by some, but this has been somewhat focused upon keying in on outreach to the wider world. For me it happened in the form of Facebook pages and blogs. I claim that they do have their place. I must defend and claim some success for such as this blog… and a bible study that I write. But, while these efforts stand good for evangelical message declaration to those in the greater audience, they do not accomplish much to support the local mission of a small church. I often think the activity is too much a distraction, as we continue on the local path to dissolution.
In our small town, therefore, we march along with social changes from active factories to cottage industry… and from family farms to part-time gardening. We lumber less and our trucks send chips out of town. We've gone from large church families to scattered individuals as children move away for college and employment futures. We see these souls occasionally in the coffee shop communicating with distant family via cellphone, modem and other gadgets. The results? Family and community activities dwindle. The distance between family members and community ties grows, Too often, many isolated people find themselves mired in lowered morality, higher divorce rates, children aborted, parents spurned… and a greater rise of suburban and urban isolationism. This feeds our growing national suicide rates. The extremes of this social movement drives the headline news across a society that knows deeply even through driven-ness, drugs and booze… things are falling apart.
The Gospel Key!
Thus I make no excuse for turning to scriptural source for cure. Faith history reveals to us a path forward for the small town church. We need only remember that our Lord Jesus was not born into the access of a metropolitan government or temple cult, but was of lowly birth in a small community. He grew, was tutored, and came of age nurtured by a small religious group that valued one another's company. I offer that this pattern, once prevalent in the great expanse of the Roman Empire during the first century, is what God graciously used to give spiritual power and foundation to the early church. I contend that this is the pattern yet called for at this stage of our collective American history. I believe that the Christian church in small towns and rural settings must regain this vision of our calling to worship and proclaim the gospel by accepting our social atomization.
What does this mean? Simply put… use "smallness" deliberately. Cast away your keys to mighty fortress walls and focus on the building the kingdom of many small satellite communities. How small? As small as God wills! Remember that Jesus said…
What does this mean? Simply put… use "smallness" deliberately. Cast away your keys to mighty fortress walls and focus on the building the kingdom of many small satellite communities. How small? As small as God wills! Remember that Jesus said…
"For where two of three are gathered in my name, there am I in the midst of them."
(Matthew 18:20)
Yes, certainly adjustments will be made to the community of believers. House churches need be started and these may flourish in either small towns or rural crossroads! The locksmith minister will simply carry lighter key rings. The faithful cleric may travel farther to do community visits to more than one church. The image of the circuit rider may loom large again. Let us not worship our empty church buildings… instead worship God! In this future day, we shall choose to walk in the ways of our predecessors. Amid twelve disciples, like a gathered small group of onlookers… we may meet on any Sunday morning. We may find that we can also gather on any Monday, Tuesday, or any day of the week within our Lord's making. We can gather in meeting houses, libraries, funeral homes, and barns. Remember that Jesus said…
And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the powers of death shall not prevail against it. I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven." Then he strictly charged the disciples to tell no one that he was the Christ. (Matthew 16:18-20)
In this way, by following our Lord's instructions to the letter, we already possess the key to the medicine chest for the church. We have in hand the balm which cures the busy, yet lonely hearts that flail desperately as they try to swim through this often overactive and sinful current. Consider this! As our scripture stated, Jesus "strictly charged" the disciples gathered on that former day to tell no one that he was the Christ. But the secret got out somehow through the Spirit. Thus know that as a pastor I think we should show him to others through our hopeful behavior as his disciples. In that way, we pray that the hidden keys to the kingdom that we each possess… shall be mysteriously revealed. In this way, doors shall be opened… and our Lord shall be found.

Special K is a drug that can be snorted or injected. It causes you to lose control of your body and makes you and your mind feel like they're in some other world. The process usually take 30 minutes to an hour. When it happens you'll have absolutely no idea what is going and absolutely no control.
In the movie "KIDS" (please watch see this movie) one of the female characters snortes Special K at a rave. The drug takes affect soon there after but she is able to get to a freinds house for another party. Eventually the drug takes full affect and in the final see gets raped by one of the guys in the party. She didn't even realize that see was being raped since she was still high on Special K.

Mmmm... who knew Kellogg's sold Ketamine?
1. Ketamine
2. Often obtained by breaking into animal hospitals, this liquid-state tranquilizer can be poured over a mirror, dried, and diced into a powder ready for rave-happy snorting.

Slang for Ketamine Hcl, a dissociative anesthetic used in medicine on both humans (typically in young burn victims) and animals. Also used at lower doses as a recreational drug with effects similar to those of PCP or DXM (though Ketamine lasts much shorter). Typically insulfated or injected intramuscularly.

otherwise known as ketamine,k. special k is a dissociative that can either be snorted or injected into the muscle. it makes you unable to control your body like a tranquilizer would. what it does on the mind is another story. it sems like you enter into a different world were you dont understand anything that is going on.
eg a friend of m ine didnt understand what she was meant to do with a chair. ie what way she was meant to sit on it.

Javascripters promise Jobs-free HTML5 for iPad
Javascripters who slammed Apple and Google for hyping HTML5 are offering a claimed frustration-free answer to coding for iPads, iPhones and Androids. Ext JS is today expected to unveil the beta of a programming framework for building rich, web and touch-based applications and that draws on the HTML5 family of specs. Ext JS, …
It's 1988 again
Looks like Jobs is making the same old mistakes again - despite the billions he's making today.
His Howard Hughes approach is once again beginning to ostracise Apple from the developer community at large again and pushing Android to the forefront - so reminiscent of Microsoft V Apple again.
Despite Apple's massive lead now, it will not fulfil its true promise if he continues to act like God.
Doh! PEBCAK
You do know that Google are behind Android don't you? READ BEFORE POSTING. These folks are critical of both Apple AND Google for their marketspeak bundling of CSS and JS with HTML5 as "HTML5".
ExtJS => Sencha
ExtJS has now become Sencha, is this the same extjs?
Good luck.
If the platform abstracts coding difficulties away from hardware dependency and allows developers to build for multiple platforms from the same source, then recent experience tells us it will shortly be banned from the the iphone and its bastard descendants.
If you want to build native apps, you're restricted to C, C++ and Objective C. For non native apps you're restricted to HTML, CSS and Javascript.
A problem arises if you want to build a not so native app with something which is neither a native programming language nor HTML/CSS/JS or you want to build an interpreter.
Luckily I don't need more than what is offered on the iDevices, so I'm fine with that.
Yes, I know, the World Wide Web is 90% flash, but I'm fine with the other 10%.
It's the web...
Is Jobs going to ban the web now?!?
It's ironic that the beloved HTML 5 web application spec is what will give all this power and richness to web apps - which are inherently cross-platform / device independent.
In fact, if Mr Jobs is so anti anything he can't control, I'm surprised he even acknowledges that the web exists. He's been so busy hyping HTML5 and singing the praises of open standards while fighting his war with Adobe... I think one day he'll regret it.
Look how increasingly irrelevant win32 is becoming today, thanks to the web. In Microsoft Land, the web is public enemy #1! It's like what world communism would be to the United States.
How long before Apple realise they helped give the web teeth and now it can bite them.
Dear me!
Before getting on your soap-box, get your facts in order. When the iPhone was originally released it only supported web apps, as well as Apples native ones. This exactly *how* Apple originally intended apps to work on the iOS platform!
@It's the web...
"Look how increasingly irrelevant win32 is becoming today, thanks to the web. In Microsoft Land, the web is public enemy #1!"
Hello, hello, the 1990's would like their FUD back.
That's the biggest load of yesteryear pish I've heard recently. Microsoft circa 1995 perhaps.
Yes every corporation seeks to steer how we use the internet to their financial advantage, but these days MS are no more evil and control seeking than Apple, Google or Oracle.
Go check the MS dev tools and you'll find the web and importantly interop fully embraced. e.g. support for both XML and JSON baked into the tools. Oh yeah, and how about their participation in and redistribution of jQuery in Visual Studio?
Oh and "win32 irrelevant", well sorry matey, I think Microsoft's 90% share of the desktop OS market keeps Win32 pretty relevant.
Facts please.
make sense
We are not talking apps, but web-sites. So you make no sense when you say Apple will ban it. Why is it people have to be so polarised and closed minded. Apple aren't perfect but don't assume the worst in every announcement.
Oh John, you're new here aren't you?
"Why is it people have to be so polarised and closed minded"
When the article is about Apple there are only two sides (the polarisation of which you despair)
You either HATE apple with a vengeance, thinking that everything they do is a personal attack on you, your descendents and the world at large
You are a fanboi who will defend to the death the cult of Jobsianism
Bit like windows and Linux, don't even go there :-)
Getting bored of no flash
As an iPhone owner i am getting really bored of finding i simply cant use a whole load of websites.
Thanks Steve!
And Im so happy...
that I have an automatic ad blocker on my iPhone which prevents battery draining flash spamming me from every other site I visit.
Same here, plus...
... i don't really see why people downvoted this post -- what's wrong with wanting to see all the web has on offer at the moment (regardless of technical aspects and potential inefficiencies of the medium)?
It's already there and until (and if) it goes away, well.... it's still there! And lots of it!
Why should the average surfer be penalized for something out of his/her control?
Personally, my value on freedom is stronger than my hatred of flash. As you can see, some people have it the other way around.
I would rather see a world where developers, adobe included, are free to develop apps as they choose, and users are free to utilize those that fit their needs the best, instead of a world where apps are censored arbitrarily by a single authority.
"which prevents battery draining flash spamming me from every other site I visit."
Someone hasn't looked into how Android implements Flash- it doesn't load automatically, only when you tap it. So there's no battery draining spam.
iPhone's days are numbered
I like the walled garden apparoch of Jobs, purely becuase you know it will ultimately fail. How can any consumer oriented platform be successful without access to p0rn?
and IE9
while it's only in Tech Preview IE9 has, much to the chagrin of the MS haters, done a pretty good job on implementing the standards that are standardised (as opposed to still being in flux)
IE9 and standards
Well of course, Microsoft has to Embrace a standard before they can Extend and Extinguish it.

In order to give him a little bit of momentum heading into the Survivor Series, Alberto Del Rio was given a victory over Santino Marella on WWE Main Event this week.
When Michelle McCool went in for wrist surgery last month, there were speculations that she was healing up for another run with WWE. However, that does not appear to be the case. No such return is currently being planned right now, as she is spending time with her baby daughter.
Michelle McCool is going in for surgery to repair her right wrist. The former WWE diva claims that it has been hurting her for years, and now that she is no longer in the wrestling business, it was time to start healing her body.
Since Monday Night Raw was in Austin, Michelle McCool decided to pay a visit to her former WWE coworkers backstage at the event. Rumors of her return were rampant because the diva made an appearance at the performance center.

Ambassador Kairat Umarov Presents Credentials to President Barack Obama
On January 14, Kazakhstan's Ambassador to the United States, Kairat Umarov , presented his credentials to President Barack Obama. During the White House meeting, they emphasized the dynamic relationship between the two countries in a variety of key areas.
President Obama called Kazakhstan "an important strategic partner for the United States." He also conveyed his best wishes to Kazakh President Nursultan Nazarbayev and expressed his willingness to continue working with him to strengthen global and regional security.
Ambassador Umarov extended heartfelt congratulations to President Obama from President Nazarbayev on his upcoming inauguration. He also conveyed the Kazakh leader's invitation to Mr. Obama to visit Kazakhstan.

Davenport converting a penalty but a harsh handball against Bryan Robson allowed Mel Sterland to level it up from the spot.
Sterland would also later provoke my ire for giving Lee Sharpe a rough ride when playing right-back for Leeds. I think the boss said he kicked the winger from 'pillar to post', although I later got to speak to Sterland regularly when working with ClubCall and he was a smashing guy.
Colin West hit the winner and that was it. It was a feeling emptier than Wembley Stadium itself on the day, but I still stayed to watch Nottingham Forest beat the Owls on penalties after a goalless draw, the same method used to defeat plucky underdogs Tranmere in the semi-finals. The idea must have been to try to get my money's worth in terms of entertainment.
It wasn't a great day out. There have been other disappointing days at the famous arena but this event was definitely one to forget. All this at a time when fans would not be saying things like they would 'settle for just the league title' in any given season.
Later that year, there was the chance of redemption in the Mercantile Credit Centenary Trophy. Was there no end to this? Everton and Newcastle had been dismissed en route to Villa Park and the October final against Arsenal provided another opportunity for 'cup glory' on a Sunday.
Maybe it was a 16th birthday present as that was only two days away, or perhaps I really was that desperate to see United win something. In any case, although I remember the atmosphere being pretty good, Paul Davis and Michael Thomas scored in quick succession for the Gunners.
Clayton Blackmore pulled one back late on to spark hopes of a miraculous recovery but it wasn't to be and Arsenal were able to celebrate (pictoral evidence suggests this was definitely the case so it wasn't just me that wanted to win it). What Arsenal would give for the trophy now to end their drought (almost certainly nothing).

Hi Dave,
-You may continue to drink decaf coffee - it is not necessary to abstain.
-Goat cheese is less of an issue because it is easier to digest. As for the mozzarella, we recommend simply cutting back on this during the cleanse.
-Peanuts and peanut butter typically become an issue when allergies are present, but there is some evidence about certain toxins and microbes that can be found on the surface of the nuts. Peanuts and peanut butter may be eaten, just sparingly.
- Yes, that is fine. 30 minutes is the minimum.
Hope this helps!

My wife and I are doing our first cleanse starting today and I had a couple of questions regarding diet and timing of pills with the 14 day Organic Full Body cleanse:
- we normally drink decaf coffee. should we abstain for these two weeks?
- it says to avoid dairy, but goat cheese is ok. how about buffalo mozzerella?
- I've read in other articles that peanuts/peanut butter should be avoided. Is this true?
- lastly, after taking formula #1 when I first wake up, is it ok to wait about an hour and take #2 with breakfast and water before heading to work? The directions say take #2 thirty minutes after #1. I guess I just want to make sure that waiting an hour is ok.
Thank you! Looking forward to hearing back.

SOUTH CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) -- West Virginia is warning working-age residents that abusing drugs will keep them unemployed.
Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin said the state is launching a "Get High, Don't Get Hired" campaign next week.
The public awareness effort targets the damage to West Virginia's employment picture blamed on substance abuse.
Officials have long recounted anecdotes from state employers who say they want to hire but that applicants can't pass a drug test.
Concerns about drug abuse prompted Tomblin to order drug testing for most publicly funded workforce training programs last year.
Tomblin addressed reporters and editors Thursday at The Associated Press' annual Legislative Lookahead forum.

The Silent Epidemic of Health Illiteracyby Sajid Surve, DO | October 6, 2008
Nobody questions the fact that healthcare is a confusing profession. Doctors and nurses seem to speak in foreign tongues; medicines have names and ingredients that are not even pronounceable; more and more news comes out every day about diseases and conditions that seem to contradict each other. If doctors must devote 12 years of higher education just to get a basic understanding of how the body works, how does a patient hope to know what's wrong with them?
In the federal government report, Healthy People 2010, which was written in 2000 and speculated on the upcoming problems facing the population, one of the objectives identified as a barrier to effective healthcare was the problem of health literacy. Health literacy goes well beyond the specific problem of an inability to read. The report defines health literacy as "the degree to which individuals have the capacity to obtain, process, and understand basic health information and services needed to make appropriate health decisions." Making appropriate health decisions is a huge task made up of thousands of tiny ones. Scheduling and keeping appointments, knowing medications and dosages, understanding complications, consenting to procedures, and reading health information are all critical components.
Healthy People 2010 reports that as much as 30% of the United States population is either health illiterate or only has a "basic" literacy, meaning that they can only comprehend the most remedial tasks. Most people who are health illiterate either have a job or are retired workers, meaning they are otherwise functional within society. The problem is especially worrisome within the elderly population, where two thirds of adults over age 60 have inadequate or marginal literacy skills, and 81% of patients age 60 and older at a public hospital could not read or understand basic materials such as prescription labels. Other groups with high levels of health illiteracy include immigrant populations, minorities, and patients with lower incomes. About half of Medicare/Medicaid patients read below the 5th-grade level.
According to the AMA, having poor health literacy is "a stronger predictor of a person's health than age, income, employment status, education level, and race." Patients with inadequate literacy tend to suffer from more complications from medications due to errors in dose and timing. Medical complications are also more common because patients are less likely to follow-up with conditions that require it, and in general are less compliant with physician instructions. Without clear and accurate language to describe their symptoms, patients with less health literacy are also more difficult to evaluate and diagnose, leading to longer times until appropriate treatment is initiated. The cumulative effect is that poor health literacy costs the United States over 100 billion dollars every year in extra healthcare and lost productivity.
Ultimately the issue of health literacy needs to be addressed on a national level with a well-funded initiative for patient education and awareness. However, anything professionals can do to facilitate better communication is of the utmost importance for the well-being of our patients. Everybody in the healthcare profession needs to recognize the possibility that patients may not be understanding what is expected of them. Simple changes like providing a plainly written care plan for the patient to take home after every visit can help to avoid potential errors. After an encounter, rather than asking patients if they have any questions, consider instead to ask if there is anything you can explain more clearly. We may not be able to change our patients' behavior overnight, but we can start by changing our own.

After graduation, Emde went to study in Rotterdam at Erasmus University. "It's a hardworking harbor city," he says of the town, which is the second largest in the Netherlands and one of the biggest ports in the world. "I went there to study one thing and ended up studying two. I did a degree in Dutch law—commercial and penal—and also business administration. I did business administration during the day and law during the evenings. Then I went to the United Kingdom to study at Lancaster University's business school, and there, I received a master's degree in organizational analysis and behavior."
Emde did an internship with a local firm to see how he liked practicing commercial law, but he did not feel that was a good fit.
While Emde was at the university, he—like many students—sought a part-time job to generate additional income. "Someone told me that it might not be good to become a waiter. Instead, they said I should get a job as a security officer because I'd get a more interesting job and possibly better pay. I took the compulsory exams and became a security guard in some of The Hague's office buildings," Emde says. "There, my fascination with security grew."
Emde first heard of ASIS in 1987. "My memory is that I wrote to the local contact person because I saw ASIS mentioned in a magazine. Don't forget there was no Internet. I had to discover 'what is this American Society for Industrial Security?' and then I found out about the European Chapter and the student membership—and it all was through an exchange of letters that took some time. At the end of 1990, I think, I received my student membership certificate."
While welcomed by the members of the European Chapter, Emde had to pay his dues. Or collect them, rather. "The chapter had a conference in my home country, and a lot of people from all over Europe came, and I was the one who had to collect the bus fee to take them to the resort in the north where it was being held. There was no euro then, so I had to deal with people handing me all these different currencies," he laughs.
Emde's decision to get involved with ASIS yielded him two of the Society's many benefits—contacts and mentors. "I had a number of mentors from various industries including banking, the sector I later worked in," he remembers. "They taught me about what they did at their companies, which was often totally different from what I did as a security officer. It showed me there was a security profession out there that was different and interesting. That motivated me to keep educating myself and to look for a job in security management."

The price of a Powerball ticket is going up, but so are the jackpots and the odds of winning. According to the Colorado Lottery, a $2 ticket now buys you a chance of winning jackpots of at least $40 million. The game also improved its odds of winning from 1-35 to 1-32.
Players will still choose 5 numbers out of a pool of 59, but the Powerball pool has been reduced from 39 to 35 numbers. The Match 5 prize also increases from $200,000 to $1 million.

At least 10,000 civilians have been sentenced in military trials since Egypt's January 25 uprising that ousted president Hosny Mubarak, a human rights group said Monday.
The Arabic Network for Human Rights Information called on the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces to reconsider, saying the activists jailed in military prisons do not get a fair trial.
There has been an uptick in protests to pressure the council, which has been in charge of the country since February, to stop the military trials of civilians.
"We will not be exaggerating if we say that (the) judiciary is the only sector that did not see any changes after the January 25 revolution," the Cairo-based group said.
Blogger Maikel Nabil, who received a three-year jail sentence in April for "insulting the military establishment" and "spreading false information" when he wrote about allegations of torture against the military on his blog, is one of dozens who was tried in a military court.
Protesters are planning a one million-strong march on Friday in Tahrir Square, the staging area for the popular revolt against Mubarak, to pressure the council to stop the military trials and also bring members of the former regime to justice.
While the military was credited for supporting the 25 January revolution, it has also been criticized for using force against demonstrators afterwards. The armed forces have repeatedly denied these accusations.

The Lost Chapters looks as good as the original game, which still can hold its own against any other game released on Microsoft's game system.
If you simply can't get enough Fable, then by all means give the developers and publisher some more of your hard earned cash.
The game addresses one of the chief concerns of the first Fable, its length.
While the main game can take about 15 hours at most to beat, completing all of the additional side-quests may take you up to three times as long.
The story is tightly linear, so it's hard to make your character's tale your own.
It's great fun to build your own good or evil hero, and with the Lost Chapters content, there are easily 20-plus hours of fun to be mined out of it. [Jan 2006, p.58]

Dec 30, 2011This game is fantastic, even to this day. The combat is still solid enough to meet today's standards in well made games. There's plenty of different armor sets, and you can mix match. I played this game when it first came out, and I still play it today-- the story line is a gripping one, and lets you choose here and there what you want to do based on bad or good. Your appearance even changes due to the choices. There's multiple ways of making money for an Action RPG, from just killing monsters, to renting out houses and collecting the money. I have played all the Fables, and the first is still by far the best. If you haven't played it and are skeptical on buying it, I highly recommend this game.… Expand

JaceN.Dec 20, 2005More of an expansion pack than anything! Im afraid that Fable bit off ten times more than it could chew with the whirlwind of RPG greatness it promised prior to release...and fell flat at Morrowinds feet after release. Its just too limiting, the whole world is just a highway from Bowerstone in the North to Twinblades camp in the south, the new areas are nothing special and the sidequests are more like pointless busywork to make the most of the fishbowl-like environment you feel trapped in. Claustraphobia ahoy!… Expand
