LANSING, Mich. (AP) -- Michigan Attorney General Bill Schuette is asking a federal appeals court to uphold the state's 2004 voter-approved gay marriage ban.
In a brief filed Wednesday with the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, Schuette suggested judges come to the same finding as the U.S. Supreme Court on Michigan's affirmative action ban.
The high court recently ruled that Michigan voters had the right to prevent universities from using affirmative action in admissions decisions.
Schuette says the same should hold true in the same-sex marriage case.
Michigan's ban on gay marriage was declared unconstitutional in March by a Detroit federal judge. Hundreds of couples were married before the appeals court suspended the ruling a day later.
The plaintiffs have until June 9 to file a response to Schuette's brief.

RICHFIELD, Wis. (AP) -- A Wisconsin community is saying no to new fast-food restaurants in residential neighborhoods.
The plan commission in Richfield voted this week to ban construction of new fast-food restaurants in areas that are largely residential. Jim Healy is the assistant to the village administrator, and he says officials thought that was in the best interests of the community.
Fast-food restaurants can still be built in more commercial sections of the village that's about 25 miles northwest of Milwaukee.
The West Bend Daily News reports that the commission defined fast-food restaurants as those where customers order food at a counter, generally pay when they get their order and the food is mostly served in disposable containers.
Sit-down restaurants are not affected by the ban approved Thursday.

Audio Spectral Coder
The performance of a high-quality audio coder may be evaluated as a function of the coding quality, bit rate, coding delay, and algorithmic complexity. An optimum coder would maximize the first parameter and minimize the remaining three. With this goal in mind, an optimized audio spectral coder (ASC) has been developed, at INESC, using a specially designed interactive simulation and evaluation environment.

Latest News
'We hit our groove'
Anne Jarvis, The Windsor StarPublished: Saturday, January 11, 2014
Undoubtedly, the darkest day was the day Const. John Atkinson was shot in the face in broad daylight on a city street confronting a drug deal. Francis accompanied police to his widow's house to break the news.
Francis is intense, driven and relentless, has an answer for everything, concedes little and always has the last word. His energy is astonishing. (He also became engaged, got married, had two kids and graduated from law school while he was mayor). He's someone you want on your side.
Yet he's also controlling and polarizing, someone with little patience for democracy's encumbrances. He either chairs or is on every major municipal board, from the police, to the tunnel to the airport to Enwin. But I've never thought it was good to have so much riding on one person.
Eleven years is a long time in politics, Francis said Friday. ("Political years are a little like dog years," said his wife, Michelle Prince.) The job weighs heavy, he said. Certainly his critics have been merciless. It must be rough on him and his family. He's not going to miss being on call 24/7. And he's going to enjoy being a political pundit, he said, laughing.
Francis has put the city first by announcing early that he won't seek re-election. "It allows for real discussion and debate in the transition," he said. Candidates will have time to prepare (hopefully) thoughtful campaigns. Voters will have time to make (hopefully) informed decisions.
Francis insists it will allow council to focus on its job the last 11 months of its term. I doubt that. A huge vacuum has just yawned, and not just for the mayor's job. Half of council is expected to change now - at a critical point in the city's turnaround.
This will be a crucial election.

Advantage Multi 209 209
Multi Advantage By combining imidacloprid and moxidectin, advantage multi offers the wonderful benefit of broad protection against BOTH common internal and external parasites in dogs and cats. An important area of coverage includes not only adult stages, but the immature stages of roundworms and hookworms, two parasites that are a risk to people if not prevented in our pets. It also treats and controls, and prevents whipworms, which are difficult to eradicate in both dogs and the environment. When applied monthly, it is almost 100 percent effective in preventing heartworm disease in dogs and cats. Additional benefits of treating scabies and demodectic mange and ear mites make this a very attractive product. All of this with the wonderful flea control benefits of the product advantage. The greatest benefit I see with this versatile product is that it takes the labor out of administering a myriad of medications to dogs to control these varied internal and external parasites. I also find that it kills the larval stages of fleas in the home surroundings of treated pets, which is a wonderful added benefit. I have on rare occasions seen topical irritation and sensitivity at the site of application, and even more scarse neurological reactions in hypersensitive pets. The only other downside would be the potential high cost of this product, as well as the need for clients to obtain a prescription from their veterinarian. Overall, however, I have found this product to be an excellent and safe all around internal and external parasite control manager in our dogs and cats. 06/16/2008
Great product. I use it on two toy poodles. Does all it claims to and is so easy to use. In years past I used a heart worm pill and it was a PILL! 10/20/2014
We've used this product since Bo was a puppy. He is almost 8 yrs. old now. We wouldn't use anything else for easy use, effectiveness and convenience. 10/17/2014
uneffective 4 dogs, 3 small breeds and 1 medium. Putting on the advantage was a breeze. But one week later, all 4 dogs were scratching worst than ever before. I had actually picked fleas from their coats. Really unhappy. 10/10/2014
treats multiple parasites This product treats multiple parasites which is a great plus. I put a bowl of Fluffy's food down and then part her hair high on the neck as she is busy eating which makes it easier to apply. Just watch the cat for a few minutes and keep them from trying to get the spot. Only one time did she shake her head to get the wet drops off which did come off a little bit. The product did kill the fleas after a few days. Since we have multiple pets we have to keep up with combing and vacuuming also. Our cats did not have any bad reactions to this product. 09/16/2014

« Back
I was suggested to this product by a vet for my puppy who was found out to have demodectic mange. Since he is part Australian Shepherd, the other product had a chance of having severe complications. Does this actually help with demodectic mange?
I have been using Advantage Multi for our dog and last administered 1 week ago. We are going to the mountains in a few days and I realized that tick prevention is not covered with this. Is it safe to use the Seresto collar in conjunction with Advantage Multi so he has tick protection?
Answer:ÂThank you for your question. Please consult with the vet as that would be a double dose of flea medication. We have a Preventic collar that protects only against ticks which you can definitely use.

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (AP) - Two security guards face charges of impersonating police officers after they escorted rapper Lil Wayne to an Indiana nightclub.
43-year-old Ronald Andre Harrod and 23-year-old Larry Lee Richardson of Indianapolis wore police-type uniforms and gun belts as they escorted Lil Wayne to a Bloomington nightclub Wednesday.
Police say Richardson led a caravan of tour buses in a car that had flashing red and blue lights and sirens blaring. Harrod was behind the caravan in another car that also had red and blue flashing lights.
Bloomington Police Department Capt. Joe Qualters says the men said they had permission and credentials to drive with lights and sirens.

Government's record year of data loss
A record 37 million items of personal data went missing last year, new research reveals. Most of the data was lost by government officials but councils, NHS trusts, banks, insurance companies and chain stores also mislaid or published personal information about staff or members of the public.
Many losses were caused through CDs going missing in the post, laptop thefts, and inadequate security systems that failed to stop hackers reading information stored on computers.

Long Island pro wrestler Adam 'Big O' Ohriner on TV tonight
Adam Ohriner, a 2004 Mepham High School graduate, will make his in-ring national television debut tonight on Spike TV's "Impact Wrestling," starting at 9 p.m.
His appearance, which was taped last week in Peoria, Ill., is part of a "TNA Gut Check" search to find new talent for the company. The match was a tryout, and Ohriner will find out soon if he will be offered a TNA contract.
Ohriner, 27, who wrestles on the independent scene as "Big O," started his quest for squared-circle fame after appearing in friend and WWE Superstar Zack Ryder's YouTube show, "The Z! True Long Island Story."

"Oh, my aching, swollen feet!" Most pregnant women, already handling so many changes in their bodies, find themselves echoing this complaint.
It's no wonder. Changes in body shape and weight triggered by pregnancy can effect the lower extremities in numerous ways. Tired, sore and swollen feet are common. Understanding the causes of foot pain and learning easy home treatments can help women step more comfortably throughout these special nine months.
Dr. Suzanne Belyea, Medical Director of Foot.com, explains that the natural weight gain experienced during pregnancy alters a woman's center of gravity, changing her weight-bearing stance and adding pressure to the knees and feet.
"One of the most common foot conditions brought on by pregnancy is over-pronation, or a weakening of the arches commonly known as flat feet," Dr. Belyea says. Over-pronation can make walking painful and increase strain on the calves and/or back.
If flat feet are left untreated, serious disorders such as Metatarsalgia (ball of foot pain) and Plantar Fasciitis, (intense heel pain) can result. The condition can be avoided or treated, however, by wearing properly fitting footwear that provides extra arch support. Dr. Belyea recommends comfortable athletic shoes, as well as over-the-counter orthotics that support the arches or cushion a painful heel or ball of the foot.
Another common foot condition brought on by pregnancy is edema, or swelling, caused by pressure from the uterus that leads to hampered circulation. Edema generally occurs later in pregnancy and is considered normal unless accompanied by swelling of the face or hands.

EARLY MORNIN' RAIN Lyrics - Peter, Paul & Mary
In the early mornin' rain with a dollar in my hand
And an aching in my heart, and my pockets full of sand
I'm a long way from home, and I miss my loved one so
In the early mornin' rain with no place to go.
Out on runway number nine, big seven-o-seven set to go
But I'm out here on the grass where the pavement never grows
Well the liquor tasted good and the women all were fast
There she goes my friend, she's a rollin' down at last.
Hear the mighty engine roar, see the silver wing on high
She's away and westward bound far above the clouds she'll fly
Where the mornin' rain don't fall and the sun always shines
She'll be flyin' o're my home in about three hours time.
This old airport's got me down, it's no earthly good to me
Cause I'm stuck here on the ground,
Cold and drunk, as I might be.
Can't jump a jet plane like you can a freight train
So I'd best be on my way in the early mornin' rain.
So I'd best be on my way in the early mornin' rain

BOOK REVIEW: "On Preaching" by H.B. Charles, Jr.
by Robert Earl Houston
As an opening disclaimer and to be quite honest, I have been friends with H.B. Charles, Jr. for the past 15 years or so. H.B. (please forgive my informality) was the speaker for the San Diego City-Wide Revival for many years at the church I pastored for the Noon-Day session. We have managed to keep in touch down through the years and I have watched him ascend the crystal stairs of the preaching fraternity from Los Angeles to Jacksonville.
Now, having said all of that . . .
I believe that every preacher, ESPECIALLY YOUNG PREACHERS, should have this book in your library or on your tablet or on your smart phone. H.B. has penned what many of us who have been around could say are "cliff notes" for those who desire to not just preach, but preach effectively.
If you have no desire to excel as a preacher – this is not the book for you.
If you want to grab onto the newest fad in preacherdom – this is not the book for you.
If your desire is to "kill 'em" every Sunday with a whoop and no substance – this is not the book for you.
If you want people to call you "Doc" to your face and laugh at you behind your back – this is not the book for you.
This is a collection of practical, easy to read advice on how to construct a sermon – not the whoop, not the holler – but from the mindset of preaching, utilizing personal theological foundations, to the "why" and "what" a minister should pray before one syllable touches a piece of paper or on a computer screen.
H.B.'s passion for preaching is redundant throughout the book. He's been preaching since he was a young teenager and he describes this not as a instructional map but as words from one traveler of the art of preaching to another. It is quite clear that H.B. does not want to remain the same in your preaching if it's below par and he doesn't want you satisfied if your preaching is above par.
A quote I found interesting:
"Your sermon manuscript will become stronger if you preach it as you write it. Talk it out as you are writing it down. This will help you communicate clearly and effectively. Some words that are easy to write are not easy to pronounce. That long sentence that looks so beautiful on your computer screen may be a nightmare to say or hear. And sometimes you cannot tell that an idea does not make sense until you hear the words come from out of your mouth. But talking your way through the sermon as you write it will aid clarity. Preaching it as you write it also aids memorization."
It's classic and practical preaching advice. It's what the old preachers used to call a "nugget." Unfortunately we live in a time when we have mega churches but pastors who either refuse or protest in sharing what they've learned along the way, especially about the craft of preaching. H.B. Charles, Jr.'s book breaks that paradigm in a refreshing way.
One thing you will learn from this book – the entire Bible is preachable. H.B. encourages you not to get in a rut and offers practical advice for vocal care. Much needed today.
Will this book help you? Yes, if you want it to. I'll add this caveat – don't let your ministry have more gators on your shelf than books in your library. Leaders read. Period. An investment is this book is well worth it. Many of us across the country are either implementing or planning to teach this book to our young associates. Pastors – consider doing so. However, all ministers need to get your hands on this book – if you are serious about the craft of preaching.Those who want to drown in shallow preaching waters need not apply.
The Case for Voting Rights
by Robert Earl Houston
In a perfect world, the Portland Trailblazers would have just won the NBA title, the Nashville Predators would have won the NHL Title, Tiger Woods would have won the U.S. Open, and James Gandolfini would still be with us. Unfortunately, this is not a perfect world.
Today, the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) turned back the hands of time and removed decades long enforcement of voting rights in several jurisdictions, and kicked the can into the back yard of the GOP dominated House of Representatives led by John Boehner. The House of Representatives which can't even agree on what day of the week it is, is now charged with enforcing voting rights – when this past election had a sub-current of voter suppression as a strategy by said GOP.
This rollback affects voting rights in primarily nine states – Alaska, Arizona, Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina and Virginia. And partially the states of California, Florida, South Dakota, Michigan, New York, New Hampshire, and North Carolina, Coincidentally, most of those states are GOP led and can you imagine them having free reign to do as they please? Welcome to 1953 all over again.
The rolls are populated with the names of those who died in order to secure the voting rights of millions of previously disenfranchised Americans. As the country continues to experience a demographic shift, those who once yielded power in this country, who are now in the throes of losing said power, have no interest in justice. Their interest is in self-preservation.
This generation, with it's lethargic attitude toward voting and civic participation, is about to get a very rude awakening. This is the opening that people like Sarah Palin, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity and others have been praying to their god for – The God of Ozzie and Harriet – so that the ballot booths return to the good old days when there was no such thing as blacks who could vote, hispanics who could hold office, women who were allowed to vote. Their next tactic is easy – don't do anything, allow the courts to get tied up for years and years, and work on voter suppression ideas that we haven't heard of yet.
So, the issue of voter rights has gone completely full circle. Get ready for the rejoicing from the right – and prepare to show up to the polls and be told that "we don't allow your kind in here" in the halls of democracy.
Today, the Voting Rights Act died . . . and this funeral will be paid by this SCOTUS.
The Portland Diaspora
I am a proud son of the Portland, Oregon area. It was in Portland that I learned how to walk, talk, run, and sleep. It was in Portland that I began the process of education at Ockley Green Elementary School, Jefferson High School and attended several schools – United Theological Seminary and Bible College, American Baptist Seminary of the West, Multnomah School of the Bible, and Golden Gate Theological Seminary – all either based in Portland or Portland-based extensions. I began my secular employment there and my church employment there. I learned how to sing in Portland, I learned how to play piano and organ in Portland. I lived with my parents on Borthwick Avenue and then Rodney Avenue. After I was grown, I lived on Vancouver Avenue, Lombard Street, Skidmore Street, and Taylor Street. I fell in love the first time in Portland and had my heart-broken for the first time in Portland. Most importantly, I gave my life to Jesus Christ in Portland, Baptized in Portland, and was called to preach in Portland.
That Portland is now gone.
Gentrification has occurred in a manner that I have never seen before. In the 1940s through the 1960s, a migration of African-Americans came to Portland seeking a better life from their roots in the South. They came from Louisiana, Texas, Mississippi, Alabama, Arkansas, and other states to seek employment in a bustling small town that was primarily known for it's lumber and maritime industries. Most black people in that area settled in an area called Bagley Downs in Vancouver, Washington, which flooded and most blacks settled in the Albina area (then called Albina, Oregon), inner North East Portland, and St. Johns to the far north of the city. Very few African-Americans lives in Northwest, Southwest and East Portland.
The community was thriving albeit without the full support of the city for necessary services. When I was a child in the 1960s, I remember that nothing was convenient – stores were not like their other locations. Gas stations were far and few between. Shopping for groceries meant going to Tradewell or Fred Meyer or Safeway. Fred Meyer had two stores – one on Union (now Martin Luther King, Jr. Blvd.) and on Interstate (now Rosa Parks Boulevard). To shop for clothing meant a trip to the Lloyd Center, the nation's first mall. We had schools that were the pride of our communities – Grant, Jefferson, Roosevelt, and Monroe/Benson for females and males respectively.
However, we rarely had our own radio stations. We didn't have flourishing restaurants or chefs in the communities. There were three main drags – Union Avenue, Vancouver/Williams Avenues and Mississippi Boulevard. If you had a prescription, you went to the Rexall store. If you were a black female and about to give birth, only one doctor delivered most of the black babies – Dr. Richard W. Franklin at Emanuel Hospital (aka the black hospital). I actually worked with Dr. Franklin in my early 20s at Emanuel.
Churches were thriving and located almost next door to each other. New Hope Missionary Baptist Church on Gantenbein, Vancouver Avenue First Baptist Church on Vancouver Avenue, Morning Star Missionary Baptist Church on Ivy, St. Mark Missionary Baptist Church on Morris, The Churches of God in Christ on Ainsworth and Stanton, The Catholic Churches on Williams Avenue and Vancouver Avenue, Mt. Olivet on Schuyler, Maranatha, New Song and other churches scattered within a 20 mile radius.
Something has happened. In the name of Urban Renewal, what were once proud African-American communities are now gone. Homes have been sold to planners and now there is not a trace of the black community in most of the areas. Schools have been closed. Houses torn down. Churches gone. The Wonder Bread bakery where my mom worked for years – gone. Geneva's Lounge which burned down years ago – not a trace. St. Mark Baptist Church, Mt. Sinai Baptist Church, Providence Baptist Church – now just a memory. Even the site of where Morning Star stood and suffered a horrific fire is now the settlement of homes called "Morning Star Village."
Bicycle paths line the streets. Street festivals are common place. Bars have increased some 20 fold in the community. Adult Book Stores, Lottery gaming establishments, stores, clothing stores, and the such have moved in and black people have been forced to relocate to "the numbers" which is a 30 to 60 minute drive from downtown Portland. The old neighborhood was less than 15 minutes.
I applaud success but I cannot applaud the displacement of those who built those homes, created the infrastructure and paved the way for those who live in the area today. Housing prices are now astronomical. My parents bought our childhood home on Rodney Avenue for $35,000. Recently the house was up for sale at over $600,000. African-Americans are being redlined and instead of encouraging them to stay, the doors of the suburbs are now open. It has had a whirlwind affect.
I feel, personally, that this form of gentrification has long term affect on the psyches of those who no longer have a sense of community. The are locked out economically from homes that for generations have housed the men and women who scrubbed the floors, cleared the boats, built the ships, laid the asphalt.
What's my point? I don't know if I have one. I'm partially glad to see services that are long overdue and small businesses invading the area. However, the cost may be too high for the livability of African-Americans. Thank God for those who are still trying to bring about a sense of community. The word "diaspora" comes in clear here. Normally, we consider the African Diaspora, when speaking of native-peoples who were removed from their lands.
But there has now been a Portland Diaspora.
I welcome your comments.
The Sisterhood – A Critical Review
by Robert Earl Houston
Tonight, I lost an hour of my life and I want it back.
I watched with curiosity which concluded with pain and godly sorrow, the initial episode of "The Sisterhood" on TLC. The Sisterhood follows the lives of first ladies (black church definition: the wife of the Pastor) of Atlanta, Georgia.
One is the first lady of Oasis Family Life Church, another is the first lady at the Wonders Church, another is the former first lady of The Good Life Ministry, another is first lady of Emanuel Tabernacle Church and another is a former first lady, whose church dismissed her and her husband (oddly, they never mention the name of the church).
I think it needs to be said that this has to be a fictionalized version. I've been in ministry for 35 years and there are only a few women that I can think of that even come near the kind of sniping, attitude, gossip, open sex talk, and disrespect for the role of "First Lady" that I saw in episode one tonight. The ladies, in the words of someone on Facebook tonight, need to be ladies first and then first ladies.
It's the Christian version of "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" but on Real Housewives they demonstrate more Christianity and manners that they do on this show.
Most first ladies will tell you that it's not easy being married to a pastor – especially if he's a busy pastor or has a demanding congregation. Most of their lives has to be spent in a fishbowl that they didn't order. Most of them are respected by their churches and communities. Some honestly have been through hell and need encouragement from their husband's congregation. I didn't see women that were married to pastors tonight. I saw women looking for that next "gig" or that "next level" that didn't take into consideration their husbands or their churches. Very odd to me was only a minute or two of any actual worship experiences or the ladies at church.
TLC is going to hurt pastors' wives by this display. I personally felt like I was a voyeur watching a train wreck. I could have stopped it with my remote control but I wanted to see if there were going to be any survivors. Sadly, none. The previews alone make me feel like I need to take a shower. I feel dirty and violated – this is not a show that presents in proper fashion what modern pastors wives are all about. The discussions (several) of sex were frankly inappropriate.
I want to apologize to all non-Christians who may have watched this episode tonight and tell you that the local pastor's wife in your community is not anything like what you saw tonight. Most of them are active raising children and grandchildren, making sure their husband is fed and taken care of, she's part-time accountant, part-time psychologist, part-time analyst, she may sing in the choir or usher at the door, she may be the musician on the instrument or a prayer warrior within the church. She may be the woman with the beautiful hat need the front or the discreetly dressed woman sitting in the back, not wanting to bring any attention to herself. She may be that Sunday School teacher or un-paid, part-time church secretary. She may be the pastor's loud supporter ("Preach Houston!" – FBC knows what I mean) or she may be on the platform sitting next to her husband and praying for his success in delivering the word. That's some of what a Pastor's Wife looks like.
This is the "Honey Boo-Boo" of the black Church world. And after watching this, Honey Boo-Boo is better entertainment.
Sunday Night Re-Cap, November 25, 2012
What a weekend this has been. This has been one of the best Thanksgivings I can remember and it all started with the people that I love dearly – the First Baptist Church family for our annual Thanksgiving Day service. The service went very well and I'm thinking that next year I'm going to try moving it to the day before Thanksgiving. With all of the cooking activities that take place on Thursday morning and the new Thanksgiving day holiday of shopping, I may need to make adjustments. Anyway, the service was good and the Lord led me to preach, "That's One Crowd I Don't Want To Be a Part Of" which examined the ten lepers who were healed by Jesus and the sole one that came back to offer thanks and worship. Very appropriate for the day.
For Thanksgiving we feasted on Fried Turkey, Corn pudding, scalloped potatoes, green beans, cornbread dressing, sweet potato pie and the works. I ate in moderation. And I must admit, Jessica earned her chef's hat this year! Way to go baby, way to go! Then the rest of the day was football until I passed out.
On Friday night, Jessica and I drove to Louisville for a scheduled program by the Messengers of Christ at Hill Street Baptist Church which, unbeknownst to us, had been cancelled at the last minute. So we took the night to have dinner at Cheddar's Restaurant over the bridge in Indiana and then returned to our hotel room at the Galt House, which was filled with families that were in the area for the annual Light Festival. A good night indeed. I've learned as a pastor that things happen, programs cancel and we don't always know the whys and wherefores, but God is still good.
We returned home on Saturday morning in time for the Men of Praise rehearsal. Many of the guys are out due to the holiday but those who were there, we pressed on, and actually we had one of the best rehearsals I can remember and there was a period of "male bonding" that is unique to the black experience that took place afterwards. We just sat there and talked – from sports, to shopping, to relationships, to you name it. It was a great time and rather than to hurry them out, we just let this happen. Sometimes, the best pastor is not the one who preaches but the one who can listen.
Sunday morning we had cancelled early morning service and I guess the word didn't get completely out. For those who don't know, I live RIGHT NEXT DOOR to the church, and my doorbell rang several times with parishioners who didn't get the word about cancellation. They took it in good stride – that's the one thing about have 99% of your congregation within city limits.
We concluded the Book of Hebrews in Sunday School and Deacon Zenas English taught our combined class. We had a great discussion and I appreciate his insights on the text. Kudos!!!
At 11:00 a.m., the people gathered slowly and by the time of the sermon, we had a very decent crowd. The Men of Praise SANG their hearts out. That number was affected by the holidays, but as I mentioned earlier, they were pitch perfect! They sang "Faithful is our God" and a new song I taught on Saturday by my friend, Dr. Patrick Bradley, "I Know There Is Something About God's Grace" that the congregation picked up and welcomed immediately. God be praised for the men!
I preached on "SCANDAL" based on John 8′s description of the scandal of the woman caught in adultery. Several things caught my eye: First, Jesus was teaching and then interrupted by this scandal by his nemesis, the Scribes and the Pharisees; Secondly, when they accused her, Jesus went silent and wrote in the dirt. I suggested that it could have been words of praise because the accusations ceased; Thirdly, Jesus dismissed them by saying "let he who is without sin cast the first stone" and the only one qualified to do so was Jesus himself. Instead of condemnation, He pardoned – just as He does in our lives.
God be praised for one young adult brother joining the church under restoration. It was a good day.
Now that the election is over – what is with the looney part of the GOP with their asinine insistances since the election??? It reminds me of the character Marvin Martian who is always trying to blow up something and they are literally out of their minds. Look at their stupidity:
a. "Obama Stole the Election" – uh huh. Ever heard of a court case called Gore v. Bush ????
b. "Obama Wasn't Eligible" – the birther wing led by Alan Keyes, Orly Taitz, WND and fools of that ilk have turned "Birtherism" into a cash cow. They disparage the President, look for conspiracies and "-gates" and are doing more harm to the country than good – oh and by the way Orly and WND and Sheriff Joe are ALWAYS begging for money but never produce a spreadsheet to see where their contributions go. Hmm . . .
c. "Let's Secede" – OK, let me see – 25,000 people in Texas sign an electronic petition. There are over 25,000,000 people who live there that mean 1/100 of 1 percent have signed this foolish petition. Idiots . . . They can secede, just pay your portion of the Federal Debt, give us back all of our highways, bridges, airports, colleges, Federal Aid, and we'll be glad to oblige.
Man, I must really need some coffee.
There were a lot of great games over the holidays. I'm saddened that Oregon won't be playing for the national championship but they've got to stop playing Portland State and The College of Pharmacy and schedule some serious games in the future. Methinks it would be wise for the Ducks to schedule 2 non-conference games a year – one against the SEC and the other against Big 12 or another major conference or Notre Dame.
On the Cowboys front. This season is over. Stick a fork in it. We could have traded Romo for the pick to get RG3. He humiliated the Cowboys. Great Stadium. Great Venue. Horrible team.
Sunday, September 23, 2012
I returned to the pulpit of First Baptist Church today after our 179th Church Anniversary celebration. I preached in both the 8 a.m. and our new 11 a.m. abbreviated worship service. We began promptly at 11 a.m. and surprisingly I gave the benediction around 12:10 p.m.
The new order of worship was interesting to unfold today. We didn't have a choir due to all of our activities this week, so we had prayer, scripture reading, welcome, offering congregational singing and a soloist (Min. Sheniqua Roberts) and then the word.
I preached in both services the sermon, "Have You Lost Your Axe-Head?" It is an awesome text from 2 Kings 6:1-7 and it was definitely a pastoral sermon. I was led of the Holy Spirit to encourage those who had lost their axe-heads (which represents service, ministry). It was a great exposition and I believe well received in both services.
After worship I went to our monthly Trustee Board meeting and then home to rest for the 5 p.m. conclusion of the Young Adult Revival. Are you ready for some football?
Dallas 16, Tampa Bay 10 – could have been much worst, but we'll take the win!
Chicago 23, St. Louis 6 – no surprise there.
Minnesota 24, San Francisco 13 – could the first few games of the year be a fluke and this was the real 49ers?
Tennessee 44, Detroit 41 – very exciting overtime game.
Cincinnati 38, Washington 31 – RG3 is still the real deal but he's going to have a long season with mediocre teammates.
Kansas City 27, New Orleans 24 – The Saints season is too early to declare it over, but…
NY Jets 23, Miami 20 – Should have never been this close.
Buffalo 24, Cleveland 14 – The Bills may be the surprise of the league.
Jacksonville 22, Indianapolis 17 – Hello Mr. Manning, please stop laughing on the phone.
Arizona 27, Philadelphia 6 – I'm still pulling for Michael Vick. But I'm a Cowboys fan so this was good news.
Atlanta 27, San Diego 3 – Chargers are way overrated.
Houston 31, Denver 25 – Hello Mr. Tebow, please stop laughing on the phone.
Oakland 34, Pittsburgh 31 – There's something missing in Pittsburgh's defense – oh yeah, it's defense.
New England 30, Baltimore 21 (4th Quarter as of this writing)
Tonight was the closeout of the Young Adult Revival. We had the KSU Gospel Ensemble and the Burnett Avenue Missionary Baptist Church of Louisville, KY as our musical guests.
Our guest preacher was a young man I'm really impressed with – Pastor Daniel Corrie Shull of Burnett Avenue Missionary Baptist Church. At the age of 25, he's one of the most articulate, biblical and strong preachers of his generation. He's been pastoring since the age of 20 and has served two churches, the other being First Baptist Church Campbellsville, KY. He blessed us tonight in his sermon about Noah's nakedness before his sons. He scattered nuggets and made a tremendous impact upon us. I encourage Pastors to listen to his sermon and consider bringing him to your church.
After worship we had a chance to hang out at Buffalo Wild Wings. We had a great fellowship, ate well, and discussed ministry, life, etc.
Then home to watch the Emmys (Homeland won?) and then Boardwalk Empire (I still can't understand how Nucky Thompson's wife, Margaret is still alive after signing away all of that land to the Church. But in case she does it again, our church address is 100 . . .
Good night y'all.
Friday Night Live . . . a few thoughts!
Tonight is the kick-off of our Young Adult Revival and our guest speaker this year is Pastor Daniel Corris Shull of the Burnett Avenue Baptist Church in Louisville. I've known Pastor Shull for a few years now and I was impressed when I first met him. He's a graduate of Fisk and has a unique exposition of the Word of God. He's a very gifted preacher and when he preached for us last year for our of our annual days, he taught our Church how to dance! "Just put your fist out and put one leg behind another, then think of His goodness and switch legs, then think about how He saved you…" Needless to say, it was one of the most memorable messages I've heard in recent memory. If you're in Frankfort area, join us Friday night (tonight) at 7 p.m. and Sunday evening at 5 p.m. The KSU Gospel Choir will sing at both services and the Burnett Avenue Choir will join in on Sunday.
The Oregon Ducks are on the cover of Sports Illustrated. Uh oh. The SI jinx has been around for years and you know I'm pulling for the #3 ranked Ducks. This is not a good sign so I'm singing the mantra, "I don't believe in the SI Jinx / I don't believe in the SI Jinx / I don't believe / I don't believe…"
I'm trying to find a low cost ticket to go home to see Mom and my family in Portland. Wow did I get a price shock today – $500 plus for a roundtrip ticket and if you add in hotel and rental car, it's well over $1,000. I guess I'll wait to the fares go down. (Please Lord…).
This is day four of NO MORE SODAS. That's right – I finally made the break and the results are in. My ankles have been swelling for years, I thought, because of diabetes and when I stopped drinking sodas, my body's been going through adjustment syndrome and one benefit – no more swelling. I'm drinking gallons of water, tea, and coffee (I know, caffeine). And my body is deflating (thank God). Shirts fit a little better this morning and I'm telling God thank you and my kidneys say thank you as well.
Today is the 11th anniversary of the 9/11 Attack on the World Trade Center, the US Pentagon, and the loss of lives in New York, Washington/Arlington, and Pennsylvania. How the world has changed.
Those unforgettable images still ring in what Dr. Levi Baldwin, Jr. used to call "the museum of my memory." The world literally stood still as we watched the breaking news of a "fire" at the World Trade Center, only to discover that it was the aftermath of a plane collision and then to hear of the hijacking of airplanes from Boston airport, we soon began to understand that this was going to be one of the monumental events of US history. It has changed our lives.
It has forever changed our lives. The phrase "TSA" was foreign to us on September 10. The many regulations that we gladly accept in lieu of our safety has been immense. There are those who still are not whole or made whole by the loss of loved ones, commerce, relationships, etc.
One thing the enemies of this nation may have miscounted is this – we are at our best under pressure. Even though we have political leanings we are very much American. Even though we have divisions that range from age to sex to religion – we are very much American. We don't have a perfect country – but we all claim it as ours.
May God heals those hearts, and may He continue to bless the USA.

Windows 8.1 Rolls Out Today
Re:Not much improvement; drawbacks continue (398 comments)
Actually, that doesn't work exactly like it did in Windows 7. In Windows 8, the search feature is divided between apps and settings.
So, in order to find something in the control panel like "Add/Remove programs" you'd have to switch to the start screen, then select "settings" instead of "apps" and then start typing what you are searching for.
Very much a step backwards from the Windows 7 search experience.

Tender Lymph Nodes
Lymph node tenderness is a common health issue that occurs in response to infection, inflammation and systemic disease. When tender lymph nodes become enlarged, some people fear that they may have cancer, but enlargement is usually only a temporary sign of immune response. Here's a closer look at what can cause lymph node tenderness and enlargement in different areas of the body.
Normal Lymphatic Function
The lymphatic system is an important part of the body's immune system; it delivers lymph, including white blood cells, through the body's network of lymph nodes and vessels. When viral or bacterial infections occur, lymph nodes can swell and can become tender as they respond to the body's need for immune action. Inflammation related to injury or arthritis can also cause a lymph response. For example, a link exists between fibromyalgia and lymph node enlargement. Lymph nodes also respond to cancer, affecting localized tissues or blood throughout the body.
Causes of Enlarged Lymph Nodes
The reasons for lymph node symptoms vary depending on the location of swelling and tenderness. When patients have tender lymph nodes in neck areas, the culprit may be a sinus infection, ear infection or upper respiratory cold. Enlarged lymph nodes in neck regions can also be caused by seasonal allergies. Tender groin lymph nodes are often related to sexually transmitted diseases or infections in the legs or feet. Axillary lymph nodes, located under the armpits, may be caused by infections in the lungs or other organs, or may be caused by injuries on the arms or hands. Local and systemic diseases, including cancer, can also affect other clusters of lymph nodes located throughout the body.
Signs of Cancerous Lymph Nodes
Lymph nodes often cause concerns about cancer as they swell and form masses under the skin. While most cases of lymph node tenderness and swelling are due to temporary immune threats, certain signs may indicate a risk of cancer. In lymphoma, the lymph nodes usually swell slowly and painlessly. Cancerous lymph nodes may also grow together and form matted clusters. Lymphoma symptoms can be vague, but many patients also experience night sweats, weight loss, fever and fatigue as the cancer develops. When detected early, lymphoma usually responds to conventional therapies, so patients should speak with a doctor when they notice the above symptoms.
Lymph node swelling and tenderness is usually related to routine infections and inflammation. However, it can also represent chronic or severe disease states. Patients who suffer from long-term lymph node swelling should speak to a doctor to rule out cancer and other serious medical problems.

Former United States Vice President Dick Cheney didn't hold back when it came time to write his memoir of his time in office. Cheney has taken shots at everyone from Colin Powell to Condoleezza Rice, and according to The Detroit News, the VP wasn't thrilled about the idea of pulling General Motors out of financial dire straits. The memoir reveals that Cheney would have preferred that the Bush Administration hadn't bailed out General Motors with a $13.4 million rescue package and that he was disappointed, "but not surprised" that the Obama Administration took further steps to keep the world's largest automaker afloat.
Cheney said that he felt that bankruptcy was the right option.
Even so, the former vice president defended the $700 billion Troubled Asset Relief Program designed to pull U.S. banks out of hot water, saying that the U.S. government was the only body able to protect the banking system from collapse. Private companies, Cheney said, should be judged by the marketplace.

Charles Krauthammer's op-ed column on Obama strategy after the first debate.
He needs a servant in his chariot reminding him that he's not an immortal. Of course, after the debate the entire Democratic Party told him he's a dud. Wrong again. He's neither lord nor commoner. He's just an above-average politician who needs a very good night
2. He was weighed down by the burdens of office.
Ah yes, the burdens of office. Like going on "The View" while meeting with not a single foreign leader at the U.N. Like flying to a Vegas campaign rally the day after a U.S. consulate is sacked and the ambassador murdered. Like rushing off to New York for a night with Jay-Z and Beyonce.
Rocky Mountain altitude is a better excuse than that. (Thank you, Al Gore.)
3. Reductionism.
Stephanie Cutter and David Axelrod both said (amazing coincidence) that Romney won on "style points."
So, the most charismatic politician since Pierre Elliot Trudeau was beaten by an android--on style? I concede that Obama's reaction shots were awful. But he lost on radio too. And in print. Read the transcript. This wasn't about appearances. Romney didn't win on style. He won on an avalanche of substance, on a complete takedown of six months of Obama portraying Romney as enemy of the middle class, friend and footman of the rich.
That was the heart of the Obama campaign. After all, with crushing debt, chronically high unemployment, and the worst economic recovery since World War II, Obama can't run on stewardship. Nor on the future. He has no serious agenda. Nothing on entitlements, nothing on tax reform, nothing on debt, nothing on the fiscal cliff.
So when Romney completely deflated that six-month "kill Romney" strategy--by looking reasonable, responsible, authoritative in demonstrating how his policies would help the middle class by stimulating economic growth--what did Obama have left?

There are few terms I dislike more than "mewelry." Especially when it's used to describe pieces like these Double Wrap Leather Bracelets from Cause & Effect. Made in TN out of leather that's been softened, painted and weathered by hand, and finished with hammered copper hardware, these bracelets are far too rough and rugged for that word to apply. Maybe call them tough-cessories? Or how about burl-ry? Just, anything but the m-word.

Photographers and fans had a deja vu experience at Upton Park on Wednesday night when Manchester United shared four goals with West Ham for the second time this season.
Not only that, but Robin van Persie again struck the final goal of the evening to force what will be reflected on as another decent draw for the Reds. Last time, the Dutchman's equaliser kept Sir Alex Ferguson's men in the FA Cup - this time it edged United one point closer to the Barclays Premier League title.
The club's official cameras, in the capable hands of John Peters and Matt Peters, were there as usual to capture the action from an enthralling East London affair. You can browse their pics, as well as some from their Getty Images colleagues, in our match gallery on this page.

Industry commodity stocks average 1.5 days amid restrictions
The Venezuelan Chamber of Food Processing Industries (Cavidea) says the Superintendence of Silos, Warehouse and Agricultural Storage is in charge of food distribution
Cavidea to propose the Executive Office policies to secure food production and distribution (File photo)
Friday January 18, 2013 03:49 PM
The Venezuelan Chamber of Food Processing Industries (Cavidea) dismissed accusations of hoarding and speculation voiced by Government officials, who have blamed the sector's enterprises for shortage in staples.
Cavidea's CEO Pablo Baraybar said that plants resumed operations this week and they are working at their full capacity. He added that operations have also restarted for food distribution and 82% of the available transport is already operating. "Commodities are now available in stores."
Baraybar explained that failures in the supply of products early this year have been the same over the last five years. Stocks have run low because distributors would rather avoid charges of hoarding.
As a result, restrictions in food warehouses restrain enterprises from meeting the demand or dealing with low distribution, particularly in holidays.
Cavidea will propose the Executive Office softening restrictions in the stock of products so that industries and stores can maintain stocks for at least 4-5 days.
Furthermore, Cavidea remarked that food supply depends on the Government. The Superintendence of Silos, Warehouse and Agricultural Storage (SADA) is the Government's institution that decides where products are to be distributed. In fact, the priority is to supply the Metropolitan Area of Caracas.
