Its title is Shadows in the Sky: The Haunted Airways of Britain.

Shooting Challenge: Steel Wool
You ever see a photo that looks like it's raining sparks? It was probably made through a trick with steel wool. And for this week's Shooting Challenge, you can try the technique yourself, BUT CAREFULLY, AND AT YOUR OWN RISK! »
A Burning Ring of Fire
Burning steel wool, a tripod, and a long exposure shot. That, and a canvas as haunting as the aurora borealis, are all it took for Tommy Eliassen to create this indelible ode to fire and light. [Telegraph UK; Image credit: Tommy Eliassen/solent] »
This Is What Happens When You Burn Steel Wool
It's so surprisingly fantastic and magical that I'm going to go buy steel wool and light it on fire right now. It's like having front row seats to an intergalactic light show. [Boing Boing] »

Mitsubishi Polyester Film offers a variety of HOSTAPHAN® adhesion promoting film products that provide excellent surface properties for a variety of applications. Our state of the art adhesion promoting coatings improve adhesion to water and solvent- based printing inks, coatings and adhesives, as well as to metal and other substrates. These coatings ensure good wettability important for strong and stable bonds to the polyester film.
Our 2600 and 4400 series of one-side and two-side coated films are the material of choice for water based or solvent based coatings or coating dispersions as well as printing inks.
Hostaphan® 2600 and 2MA1 coated films are also designed to provide significant improvements in adhesion to metal surface layers. Our state of the art coatings promote strong bonding to the base PET layer, making it difficult for the metallized layers to separate from the film and result in delamination.
Our Hostaphan® 2CSRN coated film is an excellent choice for applications requiring excellent adhesion to solvent based inks, coatings and adhesives. This coated film is designed specifically for use in sterilized and severe retort packaging conditions.
For applications requiring sealing layers on a polyolefin base, specifically applied by extrusion coating, we offer our 2DE coated films. These films also provide excellent adhesion to special metal layers and UV curing coatings.

Priestess: How is this possible!?
Kyran: Lady, your god was a chicken. That's not exactly boss fight material.The Climax Boss is the boss at a pivotal moment of the story. The Anti-Climax Boss is when that boss gets killed with about as much effort as it took to fight some of the tougher Elite Mooks. Or the first level Warmup Boss. Either way, there was a lot of buildup, and was expected to be a tense, critical, epic battle ended up being a breeze. Compare and contrast That One Boss, which sometimes causes the feeling that, at the end of the game, you have met an Anti-Climax Boss. Note that it doesn't count if you grinded for six hours beforehand, and it probably doesn't count if you utilized the boss' unmentioned weakness to ginger ale, or used the Game Breaker Infinity+1 Sword that took three hours of Side Quests to acquire. Sometimes this can be a case of Truth in Television or Reality Is Unrealistic, of course — especially when the enemy boss is just a leader and was never really presented as combat-capable on their own. In that case, this is also an often-deliberate subversion of Authority Equals Asskicking. However, there are still ways to make such a fight challenging, with a Flunky Boss, for instance. Also, this trope can be a Necessary Weasel in Wide Open Sandbox RPGs that encourage nonviolent solutions to problems; if there must be a Climax Boss or Final Boss to round out the game, it has to be beatable by the weakest character who can survive to reach that point.

You may remember reading about Al Blackman, the 86 year old American Airlines employee that recently celebrated his 70th anniversary with the company. To mark the big occasion, American took Mr. Blackman on a flight around New York City in the Flagship Detroit, a restored vintage DC-3 owned by the Flagship Detroit Foundation, a nonprofit organization "dedicated to preserving the legacy in one of the most popular aircraft in American Airlines history".

Will the world end on December 21, 2012 according to the Mayan calendar?
by Matt Slick
The Bible tells us that the world will end (2 Pet. 3:10-12; Rev. 20:11-13), and we don't know what day it will be (Matt. 24:36; 1 Thess. 5:2). Since the Bible tells us we won't know what day it is, it can't happen on December 21, 2012, because, well, we would know what day it would be. So, there you go. The question is answered. But, what is up with that date?
The date December 21, 2012, is arrived at via the Mayan calendar.
"On Dec. 21, 2012, it will display the equivalent of a string of zeros, like the odometer turning over on your car, with the close of something like a millennium. In Maya calendrics, however, it's not the end of a thousand years. It's the end of Baktun 13. The Maya calendar was based on multiple cycles of time, and the baktun was one of them. A baktun is 144,000 days: a little more than 394 years."1
So, the Mayan calendar operates on cycles, and on 12/21/12 it is going to reset to zero and start again. It is not predicting an end to the world. It is simply a cycle of time which happens to fall on that date. Furthermore, different scholars have different opinions about what is the proper day that the Mayan calendar is supposed to end on--though most agree it is the Dec. 21 date.
Think of it like this. We have a calendar that ends on Dec. 31. Does that mean its the end of the world on that day? Of course not. We just start the calendar over again. The same thing with the Mayan calendar. It ends on 12/21/12 and starts over again on 12/22/12.
Their Long Count Cycle began in 3,114 B.C. with a 394-year period known as Baktuns. Thirteen was a significant, sacred number for the Mayas, and they wrote that the 13th Baktun ends on Dec. 21, 2012."2 It is simply the end of their calendar cycle.

This dragonfly is restricted to one area of Britain - the broads district of Norfolk. It has been scarce and local in Britain since records began.
It is now categorised as endangered in Britain and is listed in schedule 5 of the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981.
In Britain, this endangered species of dragonfly is found only around the Norfolk Broads, but it is also found in other parts of Europe and North Africa. In Norfolk, it prefers to live close to waterways where the water soldier plant - Stratiotes aloides grows. Its name Aeshna isosceles relates to a distinctive triangular marking on its abdomen.
Find out how Aeshna isosceles, the Norfolk hawker dragonfly, can be distinguished from its close relative Aeshna grandis, the brown hawker.
This dragonfly is found throughout central and southern Europe but only in localised areas in northern Europe - in Britain it is restricted to Norfolk. It has also been found in North Africa.
The Norfolk hawker prefers waters where the water soldier Stratiotes aloides grows. Find out where.
In Britain, the Norfolk hawker is only found in nature reserves in Suffolk and Norfolk, where its habitat is being maintained.

text: Hi, I have some big scenes (just one ive file each one). After the viewer is initialized i load one of these scenes (imagine a long road with curves) and i make the camera go along a path. The problem is that i notice some frame drops (peaks, mainly in curves, when new geometry comes in view). When i make a second pass, this frame drops disappear. I also used a small app for testing graphics memory and i saw that in these peaks, graphics memory usagge grows, so i guess that the main problem are textures being loaded in graphics card. Looking in the forum I found some interesting threads about using GLObjectVisitor, but this didnt solve the problem. I dont know if i did something wrong or just this was not the solution: struct CompileCallback : public osg::Camera::DrawCallback { virtual void operator() (const osg::Camera& camera) { osgUtil::GLObjectsVisitor gov; const_cast<osg::Camera&>(camera).accept(gov); } }; view->getCamera()->setPreDrawCallback(new CompileCallback); I also tried a solution given in this post: http://forum.openscenegraph.org/viewtopic.php?t=3330 viewer->setIncrementalCompileOperation(new osgUtil::IncrementalCompileOperation()); After viewer initialization (and before loadint the scene). The results where just the same. Is there any way to preload textures in graphics card? Any other sugestion? Thank you!

NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- The gay marriage issue is once again on the front burner, and while many debate if President Barack Obama's move will aid or hinder the administration politically, we can spend our time looking at ways to profit.
One issue not in dispute is that marriage is big business and appears poised to become bigger. Last year saw the average wedding budget hit more than $27,000, according to XO Group (XOXO), with wedding dresses at around $1,100, floral expenses at $1,900 and engagement rings costing $5,130.
Here are 10 stocks positioned to take advantage of an increase in weddings:
XO Group, a $230 million dollar marketcap company, operates wedding-related Web sites including TheKnot.com and WeddingChannel.com. This stock has growth priced in, with a forward price-to-earnings multiple of 22.5. The high price multiple is supported with encouraging sales numbers -- sales last year were $124.2 million, up from $112.8 the year before and $106.4 million in 2009. The bottom line is also growing, with $6 million falling to the bottom line.XO Group is thinly traded, with an average daily volume of 170,000 shares. XO Group's chart looks intriguing with a technical analyst view. The main 200-day moving average is rounding and poised to move higher, with the smaller moving averages above the key 200-day moving average. The price is also trading above the 200-day moving average, providing trend followers with a bullish sentiment. American Express (AXP), a $68 billion market cap company, provides many services, including travel planning, travelers checks and charge cards. Other credit card companies will certainly benefit, but the combination of the various services offered combined with relative size and profits pushes American Express to the top of my credit card wedding list. United Online (UNTD), through its subsidiaries, provides consumer products and services over the Internet in the U.S., Europe and elsewhere. The company operates FTD Florist. United Online shares trade an average of 856,000 shares per day and has a market cap of $353 Million. With flowers for a wedding costing nearly $2,000 on average, companies such as FTD are sure to benefit. The stock has performed poorly in the past few months, falling below $4 a share. Along with FTD is 1-800-Flowers.com (FLWS), but 800 Flowers is less liquid, with only 107,000 shares traded per day on average and a market cap of $200 million. United Online's revenue took a dip from $990 million in 2009 after a record year, but last year had nearly $900 million in sales. A boost in weddings could help propel United Online to records in revenue and profits. Analyst earnings estimates are for 15 cents per share this quarter.

Ghouls and goblins weren't the only ones partying yesterday—ASIMO, Honda's humanoid robot, celebrated its 10th birthday. To mark the date, dedicated anniversary Web sites and films were launched, with new photos, videos, the story of the robot's creation, and smartphone apps.
The application for iPhone and Android smartphones, "Run with ASIMO," will be available soon and will feature ASIMO and other Honda robots as characters with which users can interact.
Honda's research into humanoid robotics started almost a quarter of a century ago. Then, on October 31, 2000 ASIMO was created. Since its European unveiling at the Technical University of Darmstadt in June 2003, ASIMO has gained acclaim from engineers and scientists alike. ASIMO has also visited science museums around Europe, met royalty and heads of state, and has even visited the European Parliament.
ASIMO is part of Honda's long-standing program of research and development into robotics and human mobility. The company's goal is to develop a robot that will be able to help people in their everyday lives, both in and outside the home.
Honda is currently focusing its research on the development of intelligence as well as improving the understanding about the ideal interaction and relationship between people and humanoid robots. The ultimate goal of the Asimo project is to create a truly usable humanoid robot and continue the development of intelligent systems for use in other Honda products. The company is also a partner in numerous educational projects in Europe aimed at inspiring students to become more involved in science and engineering.

Home Thanet Sport Article
Broadstairs are heading back to Lord's again after a comprehensive 71-run win over Suffolk side Hadleigh in the Regional Six-A-Side Indoor finals at Canterbury on Sunday.
The Thanet side, national runners-up in 2007, hit 126 all out in their 12 overs, before dismissing their opponents for only 55 in the final over.
Andy Marshall and Andrew Bailey scored at 11 runs an over to put on 84 for the first wicket before both retired on 25, returning later to make 29 and 32 respectively.
Scott Narraway (13), Chris Kidd (11) and Jake Benfield (10) all made useful contributions, while Hadleigh's James Gilderson claiming three wickets in the final over.
Liam Narraway's first over run-out gave Broadstairs a perfect start with Kidd and Benfield reducing the East Anglian villagers to 25-2 at halfway. Andrew Bailey (2-12) and Liam Narraway (1-11) also bowled tight spells to ease Broadstairs home.
The semi-final win over Hampstead was equally comfortable, dismissing the home side for 60 and then coasting to victory without losing a wicket.
Benfield's impressive three-over spell yielded only one run and Kidd was equally as frugal with only seven coming off his three. Bailey (2-16) also bowled well again, Hampstead losing their last four wickets for 19.
Bailey (25 not out) and Marshall (24 not out), dropped in the second over, then batted Broadstairs to victory in the eighth over.
The national finals take place on Sunday, March 16.

Of state takeover and Eichmann
By Elena Herrada
The Detroit School Board under emergency managerment is forced to sue in court or request via the Freedom of Information Act any information other elected officials would routinely receive without even requesting it.
Under the opaque practices of the emergency manager, no contracts have to go out for bid. All is decided by the emergency manager, or so it sometimes seems. Other times, the EM has no power. For example, the EM had no power to keep schools from closing. Someone else made these decisions and the EM serves as a buffer between the public and the forces behind the takeover.
Recently, I had the opportunity to receive training on the software PeopleSoft, which shows expenditures item by item. Interestingly, the Educational Achievement Authority declined this program, opting to use another program, which could not track finances as easily. Even so, the training I attended showed broad figures for budgeted items, expenditure and revenue accounts.
The money going into DPS is staggering; millions upon millions, which only one person, the governor, has power to spend. Gov. Snyder saw fit to divide DPS into a failing district, the Educational Achievement Authority, by splitting off 15 schools from DPS, of which three are charters. Another nine "self-governing" schools belong to the "Office of Innovation," a private district within DPS schools not subject to public oversight.
Included in this is the contested Detroit School of Arts. DSA parents and students are waging a battle with University of Michigan to return the school to governance by DPS. All of these used to be Detroit Public Schools' property, for which Detroit taxpayers are still footing the bill.
Deconstructing the takeover is mindboggling at best. Earlier this year, I went to see the film "Hannah Arendt," about the journalist who covered the Eichmann trial for the New Yorker. She was vilified for her description of Eichmann. His trial was famous and her coverage of it was quite controversial. She became fascinated with his denial of guilt for his role in the Holocaust. He insisted he was simply doing his job, which did not include seeing the faces of Jews who would be sent to the camps. He did logistics. He was a bureaucrat. He followed orders. Arendt was able to see how he did it.
How did the whole campaign work? How did they get so many people to participate in this mass murder? They divided it up.
As I began to ask the IT (information technology) specialists questions about the spending of Detroit students' money on various line items, they kept saying, "we only do IT." When I asked about the budget for the EAA and they told me the EAA was not using the most state-of-the-art software for financial accountability, I asked them why they would decline. They said simply: "That's a good question." When I asked them about the Oakman School being torn down, based on fraudulent reports on the condition of the building while special needs orthopedic students stayed home because their parents had no place to send them with the accomodations needed, they did not have any response.
This is how they did it:They broke it all up and gave pieces of the work to departments. Someone — who we don't know — made the decision to tear down perfectly good buildings and give the demolition company the materials from the building, which circumvents the part of the Emergency Manger law requiring expenditures over $50,000 be presented to the governing body. That body in this case is the Detroit Board of Education, which would then have 10 days to come up with an alternative. Of course we have no way of doing this because we received no information from the looters.
We hear the city — more accurately EM Kevyn Orr and the Jones Day law firm — wants to clear all the land and make a park where currently the beautiful, empty Oakman Orthopedic School sits awaiting demolition.
Our schools have been taken hostage by a band of corporate looters with an entire bureaucracy in place to do it. They keep them separate lest they get the whole picture. The technicians are just following orders.
Elena Herrada represents District 2 on Detroit Board of Education.

Udall Introduces Bill to Expand San Juan Mountain Wilderness
Today, Mark Udall announced that he has introduced a bill to preserve some of the state's most iconic public lands in the San Juan Mountains of southwestern Colorado.
The San Juan Mountains Wilderness Act would designate 33,000 acres as wilderness - mostly as expansions of the existing Lizard Head and Mount Sneffels wilderness areas - and establish a new area called McKenna Peak, which presides over imposing sandstone cliffs rising 2,000 feet above the plain. It would also designate about 22,000 acres as a special management area and withdraw over 6,000 acres within Naturita Canyon from mineral entry.
The bill, which is co-sponsored by Senator Michael Bennet, reflects extensive collaboration done over several years with local leaders and interested stakeholders. As a result, it is supported by all three affected counties and numerous stakeholders. Udall and Bennet previously introduced the bill in 2009 with former Congressman John Salazar.
Altogether, the bill would preserve more than 61,000 acres - a region that includes two "fourteeners" (peaks over 14,000 feet high) and the sole water supply of the town of Ridgway - while also accommodating the various ongoing uses of the area, such as for water and recreation. Outdoor recreation groups supporting the bill say it will bolster the area's economy. For example, protecting habitat will strengthen the deer and elk herds that winter in the area and already draw thousands of hunters each year.
"This is how wilderness can and should be done," Udall said. "I'm proud to fight for this incredibly special part of our state. Not only will this bill ensure generations of Coloradans will be able to enjoy its stunning beauty, but it will also help create jobs and boost the economy of the entire area."
"Hikers, outfitters, hunters, anglers and others interested in wildlife and the outdoors will continue to be drawn to the area, sparking more hospitality and recreation-related business," Udall continued. "Despite the down economy, outdoor recreation is a strong and growing sector of the economy - one we should nurture and that will benefit everyone in the state."
These proposals were developed in a collaborative process, and Coloradans who have input or questions about the maps are encouraged to share their comments. An easy-to-fill out contact form is available on the website along with maps of the proposed wilderness at http://markudall.senate.gov/sanjuan/.

The Milwaukee Brewers serve up a midwinter reminder of summer this weekend with their "Brewers On Deck" fan festival.
The annual one-day On Deck event – set for Sunday at the Delta Center – features a full slate of activities and events, including kids-only question-and-answer sessions with players, a live auction at 1:10 p.m., and a "Milwacky Squares" game show with famed announcer Bob Uecker at 1:45 p.m.
Fans can also get autographs from more than 50 players, coaches and Brewers alumni from 11 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Although 13 players will sign free autographs, signatures from the team's heavier hitters – like Ryan Braun and Rickie Weeks – will cost up to $25 (cash only). Proceeds benefit the team's charitable efforts through its Brewers Community Foundation.
Looking to spend your money on tailgating attire instead? In advance of the On Deck event, the team introduced a new gold jersey to its lineup of alternate game day attire, and those jerseys will be on sale at the festival. The jersey features "Brewers" in blue script across the front and is the first addition to the clubhouse closet since the team introduced the alternate blue "Milwaukee" jersey in 2010.
And if one new jersey isn't enough, the results of the team's "Design a YOUniform" contest will be announced at 10:15 a.m. on Sunday. The winner gets a trip to spring training to see his or her jersey design in action.
Doors to the facility open at 7 a.m. The exhibit hall will be open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Artist uses thousdands of gummi bears to make massive (and sweet!) chandelier
Some people want chandeliers worked over with precious metals, ornate carvings or layers of stained glass. Artist YaYa Chou, whose inner child is wholly intact, went for a chandelier covered by strings of Gummi Bears instead.
Amazingly, the whole setup looks like it produces a pretty impressive chandelier, casting a warm, rainbow-colored glow. YaYa connected the Gummies with monofilament wire and tied it all together to the frame of the chandelier. Seems like it'd make a great centerpiece, but I imagine it starts to look a little ratty as guest sneak a Bear or two here and there — or if the thing starts to melt. The artist also made a Gummi Bear bear rug.
Looks like none of the white Gummi Bears made the cut. (Those taste like pineapple, right?) I suppose those were YaYa's favorite, or maybe the artist just thought they were too bland a color to include.
Click Continue for a close up of the Gummies in all their strung-together glory.

I didn't even finish the training missions. Let me tell you why. First of all you need to turn your DS laterally to play. Did the makers sit around and ask "How can we physically torture the player while they play?". Secondly every action you make requires the use of the stylus i.e. moving,shooting,...more

* Surprise surprise, Wolverine tore up the box-office (with its adamantium claws) this weekend. I hear from reliable sources that the whole thing is kinda generic, though. Hmm.
* Nickleback's Chad Kroeger is getting sued for punching another dude in the mouth. I'd make a joke about how the guy was probably insulting Chad's band… but I think it's implied.
* Demi Moore is stepping up to defend Madonna against media flack for dating a younger man. Which doesn't make any sense: cougars don't travel in packs.
* Next on 'When Animals Attack', I mean, also in news: Grizzly Bear wants to hunt down Snoop Dogg in Tennessee… to collaborate. Clearly, this was the only logical step from the Bear-Cat song.
* Coldplay are being accused of having plagiarized their song "Viva La Vida". Yes, once again. The big question: can you plagiarize the same thing from three different people?
* Sugar Ray are going to be releasing a new album soon. Yeah, big deal: so are Spinal Tap. Honestly, I am more excited about the news from the joke band than this other band who sorta became a joke.

Some time ago, Dave Belcher posted a very helpful glossary on theology and apocalyptic. Given that La Perruque, sadly, is no longer active, and that Dave has retired from the blogosphere, he has kindly allowed me to repost it here for easier access. Thanks to Dave for this helpful post!
In the "Introduction" to his Christ, History, and Apocalyptic: The Politics of Christian Mission, Theopolitical Visions (Eugene, OR: Cascade, 2009), Nate Kerr notes that the term "apocalyptic has enjoyed not only a wide but diverse re-emergence in the theological disciplines over the past half-century, but in the humanities more broadly as well, especially within the disciplines of sociology, political theory, history, and philosophy" (11). He then goes on to say, however, that what is lacking in this re-emergence — and what his book specifically seeks to address — is an account of "the difference that Christian apocalyptic makes for how we see and live in history today" (12). As a sketch of what will follow, Nate then moves on to offer five themes that orient how he uses "apocalyptic" in his own study — let me just list those briefly:
1. Christian apocalyptic stresses the otherness and the priority of God's action (12).
2.Christian apocalyptic has its 'centre of gravity' in the history of Jesus Christ (13).
3. Christian apocalyptic is cosmic and historical in scope (13).
4. Christian apocalyptic is constitutive of the meaning and shape of Christ's lordship (14).
5. Christian apocalyptic is doxological and missionary (15).
If you haven't yet read Nate's book, at least go check out the Introduction, where he gives a brief summary of each theme, but this thematics is really fleshed out in the whole book. One thing you'll notice there is that Nate relies on the work of J. Louis Martyn for certain formulations — Martyn appears in footnotes to themes 1 and 5; and, as I have been closely attuned to the work of Martyn lately, I began to reflect on the juxtaposition of Nate's thematics with Martyn's understanding of Christian apocalyptic as he frames it in his commentary on Galatians. Again, just as with Nate's book, to get the full meat of this you really need to go read all of Martyn's commentary — and I'm serious, it's superb in a way you cannot even imagine. Because Martyn's work equally lends to an understanding of Christian apocalyptic amidst this (re-)emergence of apocalyptic in the other disciplines of the arts, let me also list the pertinent entries for Martyn's understanding of apocalyptic from the "glossary" located at the end of his mindblowingly amazing commentary on Paul's epistle to the Galatians (the kind of mindblowingly amazing that is able to cut straight through the obfuscation with a simplicity, clarity, and depth that are of the most penetrating sort).:
[The first five definitions set up a kind of counter-apocalyptic vision, a false gospel even, to which apocalyptic is cast as not only contrast but the truth of reality -- and as I have repeated here before, apocalyptic is first and foremost about the business of God's disclosure of the truth of reality]
Counter-apocalyptic vision:
forensic apocalyptic eschatology: a specific understanding of what is wrong, and a view of the future: Things have gone wrong because human beings have willfully rejected God, thereby bringing about death and the corruption and perversion of the world. Given this self-caused plight, God has graciously provided the cursing and blessing Law as the remedy, thus placing before human beings the Two Ways, the way of death and the way of life. Human beings are individually accountable before the bar of the Judge. But, by one's own decision, one can accept God's Law, repent of one's sins, receive nomistic forgiveness, and be assured of eternal life. For at the last judgment, the deserved sentence of death will be reversed for those who choose the path of Law observance, whereas that sentence will be permanently confirmed for those who do not. This kind of apocalyptic eschatology — focused on the religious doctrine of the Two Ways — is fundamental to the Teachers' message.
Two Ways: Various strands of Jewish and Jewish-Christian thought in the first century preserved and interpreted the ancient portrait of God's placing before Israel "the Way of life and the Way of death." To obey God's commandments is to live; to disobey them is to die…Within this frame of reference, the Teachers used the terms "blessing" and "curse" to name the two actions of God they considered to be dependent on the path chosen by the Gentiles to whom they brought their message
nomistic: legal in the sense of being derived from the Law of Sinai
religion: the various communal, cultic means — always involving the distinction of sacred from profane — by which human beings seek to know and to be happily related to the gods or God. Religion is thus a human enterprise that Paul sharply distinguishes from God's apocalyptic act in Christ.
the Teachers: the Christian-Jewish evangelists who came into Paul's Galatian churches after his departure.
Christian apocalyptic vision:
cosmological apocalyptic eschatology: a specific understanding of what is wrong, and a view of the future: Anti-God powers have managed to commence their own rule over the world, leading human beings into idolatry and thus into slavery, producing a wrong situation that was not intended by God and that will not be long tolerated by him. For in his own time, God will inaugurate a victorious and liberating apocalyptic war against these evil powers, delivering his elect from their grasp and thus making right that which has gone wrong because of the powers' malignant machinations. This kind of apocalyptic eschatology is fundamental to Paul's Galatians letter.
– J. Louis Martyn, Galatians: A New Translation with Introduction and Commentary, The Anchor Bible, 33A (New York: Doubleday, 1997), 587-88.
In my mind, juxtaposing Martyn's definitions with Nate's thematics (while not collapsing them — there are differences that need to be drawn out) can provide a helpful orientation for a theological vision of apocalyptic thought, a vision which is ultimately God's vision, as I tried to suggest in my commentaries on Apocalypse, and a vision to which I have attempted to submit my own work and thought lately. Ultimately, engaging with Martyn's and Nate's work has disclosed for me the rather difficult truth that theology can be done only in a mode of doxology, which is never to be separated from mutual service to others in and through the community of faith. Apocalyptic theology, then, operates in a mode of lived prayer.

|Revving up Your Relaxation
Revving up Your Relaxation
You take your car to the garage to get body work. Now you can take yourself to The Garage to do the same. Read on to learn more about this spa alternative.
"Rarely, if ever, does one think of a garage as a place where one would go to for a massage. The Garage, Massage Therapy & Bodywork changes all that," Owner Onalda Martinez says.
While not literally a garage itself, this massage venue caters to the hard-working individual who deserves a break but might not prefer the typical spa environment. The Garage is focused on providing a laid back approach to bodywork. "Massage doesn't have to be expensive, clinical, nor too 'metaphysical,' " Martinez says. "It should be an affordable, personal, comfortable and, above all, an effective experience. While massage is relaxing, it can be a powerful and natural option for pain relief, stress management and other medical conditions."
The Garage ditches the spa stereotypes to transform your experience into what you want and what works for you. Before your service, your massage therapist will get to know you and your body with a one-on-one interview. This interview will include a thorough medical history as well as personal preferences like what scents and type of music relax you. "It can be spa music, but it also can be heavy metal, country or hip-hop," Martinez says.
After learning more about you, your massage therapist will apply the information to your overall experience. If you like the scent of lavender, you can expect to smell it while you're receiving your massage treatment. And if you like Colbie Caillat, don't be surprised if you hear her mellow voice.
"They're in the driver seat," Martinez says about her clients. "I love telling people this over and over again: Just because you're the one receiving a massage, it doesn't mean that you don't communicate your needs with your therapist."
From the therapist's touch to the relaxing scents and sounds, The Garage truly appeals to your senses. And after just four months in business, The Garage is expanding that sensory experience with an office remodel. The new and improved layout will include an additional treatment room to provide more availability to clients, and it also will entail the installation of audio/visual equipment in the treatment and waiting areas.
Beyond the physical experience, The Garage even caters its scheduling options to you. You can make your appointment via a phone call, the Web site, the Facebook fan page, an e-mail or even a text message.
"Someone can text us and say, 'I want to set up an appointment for tomorrow,' and we will get their name, phone number and e-mail address and within a short period, if not instantly, they'll receive a confirmation e-mail," Martinez says. "Unlike many of the massage venues out there, we embrace technology to make us more efficient and accessible to the client."
Editor's Note: This is a special advertising section provided by The Garage, Massage Therapy & Bodywork.

Jobs Report Shows Long Road Ahead for Housing Recovery
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- The stronger-than-expected jobs report in June should boost confidence about the economy, an important driver of housing demand.
Still, the latest jobs report has a few sticking points that suggest that a real recovery in housing demand is still not near.
Trulia chief economist Jed Kolko notes that employment among young adults is still well below pre-bubble levels. Just 75% of 25-34 year olds are employed. That is up modestly from 74.9% a year earlier, but is still well below the 78% to 80% that prevailed in the pre-bubble days.
Young adults without a job are more likely to live with parents or family than start new households, Kolko notes. Just 12% of employed 25-34 year-olds live with their parents, compared with 20% of 25-34 year-olds who aren't working. Until more of these young adults start moving out of their parents' homes and starting their own households, we will not see a full-blown recovery in housing demand.Separately, it is also worth noting that these young workers also are disproportionately saddled with student debt, another factor that is likely preventing them from buying a home. The jobs report also showed that construction employment slowed in the second quarter. The economy added 16,000 jobs in the second quarter ending June, versus 40,000 in the first quarter and 29,000 in the fourth quarter of 2012. Residential construction employment, including residential specialty trade contractors, was up 4.4% year-over-year and up 7.5% since it bottomed in January 2011. Kolko notes that unemployment among construction workers is still high at 9.8%, compared to 7.6% for all adults. That is down from 20.1% in June 2010, but still historically high. Unemployment in pre-bubble era was less than 8%. --Written by Shanthi Bharatwaj in New York.

Who Dares, Wins (Latin: Qui audet adipiscitur; French: Qui ose gagne; Italian: Chi osa vince) is a motto that originated with the British Special Air Service.[1] It is normally credited to the founder of the SAS, David Stirling.[2] Among the SAS themselves it is sometimes humorously corrupted to "Who cares [who] wins?"[3]
The catchphrase "He Who Dares, Wins" was commonly used by Del Boy in British sitcom Only Fools and Horses.
The motto has been used by twelve elite special forces units around the world that in some way have historical ties to the British SAS.
An early statement of the idea is 'τοῖς τολμῶσιν ἡ τύχη ξύμφορος' ("fortune favours the bold") from the Ancient Greek soldier and historian Thucydides.

President Barack Obama on Tuesday signed the most sweeping overhaul of America's food safety system since 1938.
The legislation gives the federal Food and Drug Administration the authority to impose new rules to prevent contamination and allows the agency to order, rather than simply suggest, the recall of tainted foods. It also authorizes the creation of a food tracking system to quickly pinpoint the source of outbreaks.
The legislation requires producers to assess ways in which their products could be contaminated and to take steps to prevent such problems. It also requires importers to verify the safety of all foods they bring into the country.
The result will be a fundamental shift in the FDA's approach to food safety from reacting to foodborne illness outbreaks to preventing contamination in the first place, agency Commissioner Margaret Hamburg said.
