I've somked these since the '90s. One of, if not the best cigars there are, period!DAK in Connecticut June 14, 2011
"Not Very Good"La Unica Cabinet #400
I smoked one of these last evening. The flavor was non existent. It was liking smoking a wrapper full of dirt. It was humidified properly but it still ran. I won't buy another one.Doug in New Hampshire November 12, 2010
"acceptable"La Unica Cabinet #400
Better than I expected. I'm not real experienced with cigars and picked up the La Unica 400 along with a Fuente and a Patel. This is short cigar. Excellent draw. Easy to light and it stayed lit. Lots of easy smoke. Taste was good, nothing bag about it but it seemed to lack a certain complexity and refinement. For the price, you can't complain. Definitely worth the $3.50 I paid for it. Got a little hot towards the end.Lenny in NJ August 15, 2010
"opposite of tasty"La Unica Cabinet #400
picked up a stick based on the 95 cust rating. i didnt like it one bit. nice appearance and construction. however the flavor was not pleasant at all. proceed with caution.DMO in VALLEJO,CA June 3, 2010
"Hmmmmm. Fabulous!"La Unica Cabinet #100
Just got a box of maduro 400's. Freakin off the charts! Great construction, slighty more spicey than traditional Fuente's, and incredible aroma. I think I might jsut have to have another one roght now!!!Jef in Indianapolis February 25, 2010
"Best-in-class mild to medium"La Unica Cabinet #200
They are hard to find in San Diego, and equally hard to match in taste, flavor, and consitency.Donald in San Diego February 7, 2010
"I think I got counterfeits!"Next
Poor quality wrapper leaves with patches that leak air, dry and nasty,probably worth about $1 a stick!sean in los angeles November 15, 2009

Local singer hits The Big Time
By: Stacie Snow
| Posted: Thursday, Feb 16, 2012 06:00 am
A local country singer won the social reality TV show Bud United presents: The Big Time in January.
Jessica Ridely, who was raised in Airdrie and graduated from Koinonia Christian School, appeared on the show on Jan. 21.
The singer-songwriter, who now lives in Nashville, Tenn., competed against two other performers for a chance to open for the the iHeartRadio Music Festival at the MGM Grand Arena for the likes of will.i.am, Sublime with Rome and Jane's Addiction.
"The show really took my confidence level and shot it through the roof," said the 26-year-old mother of four.
"I've known that this is what I wanted to do for years and this experience affirmed that I have what it takes to do it."
Ridley has been singing professionally for five years and she said that starting her career at 21 made her feel like she was behind other artists.
"I felt like the underdog and I thought I was being unrealistic with this dream so I didn't chase it that much," she said.
"When I won, I was in complete disbelief and I was so excited. Such a small percentage of people make it in this business."
Ridley's mom Lynn Garb said she was very proud of all the hard work her daughter put into the show.
"It was wonderful and very exciting," said Garb. "She always liked to perform."
Ridley beat out Laura Jeanne of St. Albans, England, and Justin Nault of Madison, Tenn., as they were pushed to their limits in a series of challenges that tested their songwriting and performance skills, in an effort to prove to Grammy Award-Winning Producer Narada Michael Walden and Clear Channel Radio Program Director Julie Pilat they have what it takes to wow the crowd of 17,000 people.
"Performing at the festival was like coming home," said Ridley.
"It is surprising but I feel like a lot of artists feel like this: The smaller the show, the harder it is to perform. With a big crowd, there is bigger energy coming from them. To come around the corner and see all those people, I was like, 'Aw, finally' and something clicked inside me."
A handful of radio stations picked up her single Flaming Red in early 2011. The episode was filmed over five days and Ridley said the schedule was hectic.
"All I wanted to do was take a breather and it was pretty stressful but it also taught me that I can do this on my own," she said.
"I didn't have access to a computer or my phone so it was all me. It taught me that I can accomplish these things, I don't need anyone else to rely on."
Although the experience was positive, Ridley said she encourages inspiring artists to know what they are getting into.
"If you are absolutely sure this is what you want to do, go for broke, but you have to be one million per cent positive because it is daunting and overwhelming and depressing and there are things that will make you want to quit," she said.
"You can't do it halfway."
Ridley and her entrepreneurial sporting scout husband Kent packed up and moved to Nashville with their daughter and three sons in November so she could follow her dream.
Ridley said she is drawn to music because of its ability to touch people.
"I love to get a message across," she said. "I love to convey something to others."
She said she would love to come back to Airdrie to perform.
The seven-part Bud United presents: The Big Time on ABC features young adults from across the globe fulfilling their dreams – from racing professional racecar drivers and suiting up for a global soccer powerhouse to pitching for a professional baseball team and taking centre stage at a major music concert. Individuals from all over the world had the opportunity to be selected for the global show by submitting a casting application online.

The Mormons, the Romneys, and the Left
A Roman Catholic, I freely admit I don't know much about the Mormon religion aside from the Mormon Tabernacle Choir at Christmas and that Republican presidential hopeful Mitt Romney professes the Mormon faith.
My wife and I toured Salt Lake City, Utah a few years ago and had the opportunity to visit the majestic, 119 year old Salt Lake Temple, a exalted tribute to a church dedicated to helping the poor at the same time it requires its membership to remain celibate until marriage, avoid alcohol, caffeine and drugs, and engage in worldwide humanitarian missions.
Although the Mormon Tabernacle Choir has long been a holiday favorite in America, the 15 million members of Mitt Romney's Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints have long been held in a suspicion borne of an ignorance of the church's precepts and teachings.
I would refer the reader to the church's website, http://mormon.org/, for more information on who Mormons are, what they believe, and what they have accomplished in their unorthodox but very Christian ministry, almost all of which is antithetical to what Leftists believe, think and practice.
It is precisely Mormonism's strict beliefs that grate most on the Left, although they cloak their religious disdain by objecting to secular matters. Thus, Mitt Romney has been subjected to greater criticism than any presidential candidate since JFK.
Romney has been castigated, ridiculed, sometimes clandestinely, sometimes publicly, by President Barack Obama's ultra-liberal mainstream media despite claims that they are ultra-tolerant of virtually everything and everyone–except for Republicans and conservatives–principally because he represents all that liberals are not.
Reflecting the extent of Leftist sick venom, liberals haven't been content with attacking the candidate; they have violated their hero's injunction against involving families in political campaigns by abusing Romney's former teenage sweetheart and wife of 33 years, Ann Lois Davies Romney.
Mrs. Romney was recently attacked with the same Democrat talking point applied to her husband–being out of touch with the real world due to the family's success a bnd prosperity–and for having the temerity to be a stay-at-home mom for their five sons instead of pursuing a carreer.
That perceived crime was almost as grave to liberals as her opposition to abortion and support for other conservative positions.
The president ran for cover following that misogynistic charge which ran counter to the administration's contention that Republicans are the people waging a war on women. Hilary Rosen soon retracted her idiotic statement, almost as quickly as Obama flack Jay Carney denied Rosen was an Obama lackey even though she has been to the White House dozens of times in the past three years.
Compared to other vile insults hurled at Ann Romney by liberals, calling her out of touch was a compliment.
Mrs. Romney has been labeled by Obama supporters as a "c*nt," "bitch," and "whore," among other disgusting characterizations, and all because the Left considers a decent mother who chose not to work outside her home as beneath their concept of dignity. And, of course, because she is Mr. Romney's wife.
Romney's unforgivable sin? . . . (Read more at http://www.genelalor.com/blog1/?p=21969.)+3

cashew sauce
Layered Cake
Submitted by amandanicolesmith on October 17, 2011 - 7:47am
Servings:1 -9 inch pie
This recipe is completely Raw and Healthy. All you have to do is mix your ingredients and refrigerate. I love to put a scoop of Raw Ice Cream on the side with different types of Berries! Also I want to point out that the crust can be made with any filling. The brownie can be made separate and of course you could always use the cashew and fudge sauce for covered strawberries. So many options, the best option is what is local or on hand. Make sure your ingredients are Raw and Organic for the healthiest option.

Medical Definition of CORN

Cereal plant (Zea mays) of the family Poaceae. It originated in the New World and has been introduced globally. American Indians taught colonists to grow corn, including some varieties of yellow corn that are still popular as food, as well as varieties with red, blue, pink, and black kernels, often banded, spotted, or striped, that today are regarded as ornamental and in the U.S. are called Indian corn. The tall, annual grass has a stout, erect, solid stem and large narrow leaves with wavy margins. Corn is used as livestock feed, as human food, and as raw material in industry. Though it is a major food in many parts of the world, it is inferior to other cereals in nutritional value. Inedible parts of the plant are used in industrystalks for paper and wallboard; husks for filling material; cobs for fuel, to make charcoal, and in the preparation of industrial solvents. Corn husks also have a long history of use in the folk arts for objects such as woven amulets and corn-husk dolls. Corn is one of the most widely distributed of the world's food plants. In the U.S. corn is the most important crop, but slightly more acres of soybeans are planted.

Hope and Apocalypse
Hope is that act whereby a person becomes aware of the distance of the Kingdom, and it clings to apocalyptic thinking. If the Kingdom is there, within easy reach, if the Kingdom is quite naturally within us, there is no need for hope. The latter is the measure of our distance from the Kingdom. Certainly the saying which attests that the Kingdom is in our midst is truthful, but it is truthful as a saying of hope. It is not the report of an observable, measurable reality, complete with tangible consequences. It is an affirmation of a counter-reality. Humanly speaking, it is not true that the Kingdom of God is present. . . . Hope allows us to catch a glimpse of the invisible signs of the Kingdom actually at work, but which are visible only to hope. Only for hope are they signs and carriers of the future. . . .
Like it or not, if we have the idea that the world develops through the wonderful works of man, that it goes from progress to progress in that way toward the Kingdom of God (and, at best, only by political and social revolutions!), that there is an unbroken continuity between this world and the Kingdom, that the way is prepared for the latter through political, technological, and scientific action, then one is dealing with a motionless object-God, a god who is no longer a stopgap, but a porcelain vase set aside in a corner: 'Wait for us. We'll take care of it.'
The Apocalypse is tied to the thought of a God who intervenes in history, who makes his own decisions and acts as sovereign, creating the world he wants through his almighty Word, whose fiery approach melts mountains and causes man and his works to collapse. It is to take the living God seriously. Now hope is that work which incites this God to come and reveal himself, no longer in his discreetness, weakness, and humiliation, but also in his glory. If one doesn't hope in the glory of God, of which the Apocalypse is a translation, there is no hope. There is only human progress and the hatred of those who obstruct it.

For Phyllis Kornluth, a former merchandising director for a Fortune 500 company, diagnosis with Type 1 diabetes came at age 59, when she went to see her doctor for flu-like symptoms. At that office visit, her doctor ordered lab tests, discovered that her blood glucose was high, and prescribed oral medicine for Type 2 diabetes. By the end of that week, Kornluth remembers, she felt so awful that she made an appointment to see an endocrinologist, who discovered that her blood glucose was 700 mg/dl, diagnosed her with Type 1 diabetes, and started her on insulin.
Cherise Shockley, diagnosed with diabetes age 23, was also initially put on oral medicine. It was only several weeks later, when she went back to her doctor because her symptoms were not getting better, that she was put on insulin.
As these women discovered, it can take patient advocacy to receive a correct diagnosis and the right treatment.
"When an adult comes into my office who doesn't fit the general profile for Type 2 diabetes — that is, he or she has no family history and is not overweight, I immediately order tests to check his or her antibodies," says Dr. Claresa Levetan, an endocrinologist at Chestnut Hill Hospital in Philadelphia, referring to tests for autoantibodies typically found in the blood of people with Type 1 diabetes, indicating that an autoimmune reaction is taking place.
"It is critical that doctors don't assume that an adult has Type 2 diabetes," says Levetan. "In some cases, I have had an adult who is overweight and discovered that she does in fact have Type 1. If doctors don't order antibody tests, patients can ask them to do so."
Author and certified diabetes educator Gary Scheiner, also based in Philadelphia, agrees with Dr. Levetan's assessment about the importance of testing for antibodies. "Many Type 1's go into a 'honeymoon' phase [a phase during which their pancreas once again becomes able to secrete insulin] after diagnosis, so it can seem like oral medications are working initially," he says. "Another important piece of information in getting the right diagnosis is testing for ketones in the urine or blood, because people with Type 2 rarely become ketotic."
The guidelines for diagnosing Type 1 diabetes in adults put out by the National Guideline Clearinghouse (an initiative of the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality) also mention that Type 1 diabetes should be suspected if a person has lost a significant amount of weight or if the person does not have features of the metabolic syndrome, such as low high-density lipoprotein (HDL, or "good") cholesterol, high blood pressure, or a high triglyceride (blood fat) level. (People with Type 2 diabetes very often have features of metabolic syndrome.)
Getting good medical care Beyond diagnosis, adults living with Type 1 diabetes may face another challenge: finding a doctor who has as much knowledge about diabetes as they have. Many adults who have been living with Type 1 diabetes since childhood have become experts over the years, both by learning as much as they can about managing their condition, and by simply carrying out their own self-care year after year. These adults — as well as those diagnosed later in life — seek out physicians who have just as much information and insight as they do, sometimes without success.
For Douglas Deatrick, a 40-year-old who has been living with Type 1 diabetes since age 9, a good endocrinologist can be hard to find, but a good primary-care doctor or internist is even harder. According to Deatrick, "There has not been one [family doctor] who is willing to just take care of the regular stuff, and they all think they can manage my diabetes for me. My first question is 'What is Symlin?' When they don't know it, I just leave."

Pancreatic cancer
Hey everyone,
My wifes father was just diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer. He has 6 months at most. Being in the medical field I do not think he has that long at all based on his symptoms. Maybe weeks at best.
My wife is extremely close to him and is the only caregiver available since
her other family is out of state.
I just do not know how to help here through this, everything i am doing to help feel meaningless.
Has anyone had experience with PC ? What was the progression? I feel my wife is burning herself out , and its destroying her.
We also had a major trip planned in 2 months , which we paid for, non refundable plane tickets.... I have no idea what to do about that!!
Also i was throwing her a surprise birthday party next month and most of those out of two. People were suppose to come. I am thinking of canceling it because all those people might have to be here for a funeral in a few months if it goes the way most people say it will!!
I could use some perspective from outside !
Thanks DIS
Call me crazy but I prefer the single bath

I doubt that what you're doing to help your wife is meaningless. I'd say if you can lighten her burden around your home (? and family), it would free her up more to help her dad. She may be burning out, but it sounds it may only be for a short time, and she won't want to have any regrets later on about helping her dad, so I'd say, let her do what she feels she must. As for the trip and the party, I don't know. I probably wouldn't be in the mood for those if it were me, but she may be different. Have you talked to her about the trip? See how she feels on that, then you can gauge how she's likely to feel about the surprise party. Unless you're hiring a party planner, a lot of time and energy go into planning a party, and that energy is something I'd rather conserve to put into the care of my father right now (or in your case, supporting your wife), but again, that's me.

I'm terribly sorry to hear this.
Cancer is a beast. Pancreatic Cancer (in my opinion) is a different kind of beast. I wish your family, extended and everyone the best.
Pea has offered great advice.
It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.

My mom died from pancreatic CA. I would keep the routine going in everyone's life. I am sure her dad would not want her to not stop living because of this. Celebrate what time they have together. The party if he is up to it may be good. It will also be your wife's last Birthday with him. He may enjoy seeing other family members. The trip will depend how he is doing right prior.

Very sorry that your family has to go through this. My mom died of Pancreatic cancer. When she was diagnosed, her medical team gave her only 3 months to live, but she held on for over 15 months. I think a lot of this has so much to do with attitude and faith and spirit; she was sure she could beat it.
She will definitely need some diversions periodically through this and as much help as everyone can give so she can spend some extra time with her father. But encourage her to still take a day off, do something for herself to get some down time and relaxation, she will be better able to help her dad and be there for this that way. The surprise party is probably a great idea, but you may have to forewarn the guest not to dwell on the cancer topic.
Talk to your wife and ask her what she wants to do. Let her take the lead on taking a trip or not. The best plan is probably to postpone if it is touch and go. That won't be as much about how strong her dad is but how much she will worry. When he passes she will definitely need something to take her away from this so a trip then may be much more beneficial than now. Call the airline and explain, they should let you reschedule for later given the situation.

I am so sorry to hear about your loved one's cancer. Pancreatic cancer sucks. My mom died from it 2.5 years ago. She lived with it for 18 months before it took her life away. It was really hard emotionally.
I think that you should keep the surprise party. In fact, you should tell the sick relative about the party that you are planning because maybe it will give him something really cool to look forward to.
Keep everyone on the invite list and let them decide whether or not to attend the funeral. You may find that your out of town friends and family will uae it as an opportunity to say goodbye and I love you one last time.
I kind of did something similar when my mom was very very ill and I am glad I handled it that way. She had the chance to tell some very dear friends in person how much their love and friendship meant to her.
Your wife will definitely need your help with regards to taking care of HERself so that she does not burn out. She might need a caregivers support group. Feel free to send me a PM. I'd be happy to exchange emails with your wife about it because sometimes it helps to compare notes with someone who has "been there, done that."

During treatment, laser light is absorbed only by the unwanted melanin, raising the temperature to cause shattering of the pigment. Deeper level damaged blood vessels are treated similarly with a quick switch of settings.
Shortly after treatment, the pigment cells (or melanin) have been thoroughly fragmented - without damaging the surrounding tissue. Vascular lesions (spider veins) also coagulate and shrink, many of them disappearing altogether.
In the weeks after treatment, the shattered melanin particles are eliminated by your body's own "clean up" system that absorbs the fragmented pigment. Little or no trace of the initial pigmentation spots or spidery veins remain. The GentleMax Pro® Fotofacial treatment also improves skin texture through collagen stimulation. You get multiple treatment benefits through one system.
A single treatment completely removes the pigmented blemish. However patients with darker pigmentation will need additional treatment. We ask our clients to return 4 - 6 weeks after the treatment for a follow-up.
Appointments are normally 15-30 minutes but may be longer for large numbers of brown spots.
Our lasers work to remove age spots or pigmentation on any skin tone on the face or body except for very dark skins. Clients with darker skin (Fitzpatrick scale 5 or greater) are not candidates for this procedure because the skin surrounding the brown spot could absorb too much laser energy and produce a more serious burn.
As well as a treatment for age spots on the face or body, the heat from the laser will stimulate collagen and elastin production in the treated area, giving you additional skin toning and reducing fine wrinkles and age spots.
After removing age spots from the face or body, you must strictly follow your post-treatment care routine and protect your skin from the sun. Using a broad spectrum sunscreen (minimum 30 SPF) every day.

Installing Composite Fencing and Railing on the Kuppersmith ProjectBy: Danny Lipford
In addition to the Fiberon composite decking which was used on the porch floor of the Kuppersmith Project house, we also installed Fiberon fencing in the yard and Fiberon Horizon Plus composite railings on the back porch.
To provide access to the backyard, composite fencing was attached to a steel frame for the gate. On the back porch, the durable, low-maintenance railings were positioned near the outer edge of the porch columns so the retractable Phantom Screens behind them would have room to raise and lower.

Camp Bathrooms And Showerhouses
I see thousands of parent evaluations of summer camps every year, so when I ask, "What's the single biggest complaint you get?" I already know–the bathrooms. Calling them KYBOs (Keep Your Bowels Operating) or other cute names doesn't give you any help with the fact that kids and parents aren't satisfied, especially with cleanliness. Why? Because if we can't get something as simple as keeping bathrooms clean, how in the world can they expect us to do something so much … Continue reading

Roland and BOSS Gear Honored with Multiple Awards in 2011
We're extremely honored to be recognized with these industry awards, which represent what we love to do.
Compact Design with Unique Folding Lid
The newest member of Roland's compact digital-piano lineup is the eye-catching F-110. Featuring an attractive wooden cabinet in gorgeous Satin Black or Satin White finishes, it offers a fresh look that will blend well with any home environment. With its 88 keys stereo multi-sampled piano and high-quality library of sounds, plus its unique cabinet with folding lid, acclaimed keyboard touch, and an intuitive user interface, the F-110 is a smart choice for the budget and space-conscious musician.
Form Meets Function
At just 12" deep, the streamlined F-110 fits easily into bedrooms and restricted living spaces. The unique folding-lid design covers the keys when closed, and serves as a music holder when open. The F-110 is available in two classy finishes: Satin Black and Satin White.
Flagship Piano Sound
The F-110 features Roland's finest 88-key concert grand-piano sound, with individual stereo multi-samples for every key. It's touch responsive to the subtlest pressure and nuance — from the deepest, most powerful bass to the most delicate high notes.
PHA alpha II Keyboard
The F-110's 88-key Progressive Hammer Action "PHA alpha II" keyboard gives you the authentic feel of an acoustic grand, with a weightier touch in the lower registers and a lighter touch in the higher registers. Pedal positions are detected smoothly as well, causing the sound to be shaped in direct response to the depth to which a pedal is pushed, creating just the sound you want.
Digital Advantage
With the F-110, you can play day or night, year after year, and enjoy perfect sound and performance. Since the F-110 is fully digital, there are no strings to tune. No need to worry about temperature changes or aging strings. And since it's digital, the F-110 lets you play through its built-in speakers, it's external output, or privately through headphones.
This is the latest update for the F-110 Digital Piano. Please refer to the "F-110 System Update Procedures.pdf" for the update procedures.

December 22, 2014
NEW YORK (AP) - President Barack Obama has declared a major disaster in New York and Long Island.
The declaration makes federal funding available to people in the area. It bore the brunt of the sea surge from a superstorm that hit the East Coast on Monday.
The National Hurricane Center said that as of 5 a.m. Tuesday, the storm was moving westward across Pennsylvania and was centered about 90 miles west of Philadelphia.
It lost its hurricane status on Monday and is now considered an extratropical cyclone. It has left more than 7.5 million people without power.
It is expected to move into western New York on Tuesday night and move into Canada on Wednesday.

Plan: HHF-5899
Exterior window dressing, carriage-style garage doors, and board-and-batten siding lend visual warmth and charm to this English country-style home. Further enhancing the street side view, side-by-side entrances break up the mass of the two-car garages, so that each complex feels like a separate home. The two-story layout clusters together the living areas at the back of the plan, which gives owners a sense of privacy. In addition, high, stationary windows on the side wall of the dining room let in light while they avoid views of adjacent buildings. The layout also caters to home sites with rear views. Vistas may be enjoyed through full-size windows in the rear of the dining room and patio doors in the living room.

ESPN.com's Buster Olney reported yesterday that free-agent starting pitcher Chris Young is currently weighing options between the New York Mets and the Washington Nationals. Olney says that the Mets are likely the best fit for the right-hander, but that the Nats are "in play:"
"Chris Young is getting closer to making a decision on where he will pitch in 2011; the Mets, as we know, are interested, and the Nats may be in the running, as well. It's expected that he'll probably sign for a base salary for something in the range of more than $1 million, plus incentives of something in the range of $3 million."
Young, 30, has struggled to stay healthy over the past three seasons. Since 2007 he has only pitched 192.1 innings combined, while only making 36 starts. To put that in perspective, last season alone Livan Hernandez pitched 212 innings in 33 starts. Unfortunately for Young, a series a shoulder injuries have kept him off the mound for the last several years.
As is usual for players who remain relevant despite constant trips to the DL as the result of shoulder injuries, Young can flat out pitch when healthy. He has a career 48-34 record with a 3.80 ERA, and in his last full season of work, 2007, he posted a 3.12 ERA in 173 innings of work for the San Diego Padres. Over the past three seasons the Padres have attempted to get the 6 foot 10 hurler on the mound, but only to frustratingly inconsistent results.
The good news for Young is that his pitching style isn't dependent on pitch speed. His incredible height makes up for his lack of velocity, because his release point is much closer to the plate than other starers, meaning the amount of reaction time for the batter is still small. In fact, the only year that Young's fastball averaged over 90 MPH was his rookie season in 2004, ever since he has been a young Jamie Moyer. Instead of power he uses deception to force hitters into an incredibly low BABIP (.263 in his career).
Bill James projects that he will start 20 games next season with a 3.46 ERA, which would easily make him worth a $1-3 million gamble. If he is hurt, it's a small price to pay. If he is healthy, he could be one of the best pitchers on the staff.

If you are looking for love, I have the answer. If you are looking for drama, I can hook you up. If you want scandal, well, I have that too. So, pull up a chair, grab your popcorn, and turn off The Real Housewives of Orange County. 'Cause Baby, we're going to church....
You heard me, we're are going to talk about Christianity.
Let's Take A Walk Back In Time
If you are like me, you remember going to church as a child. For me, we were just Christmas and Easter Believers. We would get all dressed up and go. Apart from my family, I would go to church with my friends on Sundays and attend AWANA on Monday nights. I would carry my little bible into the church and spend the morning in Sunday school. We would sing songs, color pictures, and hear great stories about how Jesus loved all of us. We were told to read our bibles and pray, be nice to one another and ask Jesus to be our Lord and Savior and then life was going to be good. Those were the old days and I have to wonder where it is all going.
Today's Church
Over the last month, I have seen and heard so many stories that have made me wonder about Christianity. I have to confess, that I am still a learning Christian. My bible knowledge is not as strong as it could be and I do know understand most of the history of Christianity. With that said, I have to admit that if I knew more, than maybe some of this would make more sense to me.
*If we all proclaim to be Christians, how can our views be so different?. I know that within each denomination, there are different views and rules. For instance, some can drink wine anytime that they would like (within reason, of course) and others believe that alcohol of any kind is forbidden. There's no dancing for some and, for others, dancing is used as an expression of worship. They can not even seem to agree on some of the heavier issues, like homosexuality. How can we all be reading the same book and be interpreting it in so many different ways?
*Is there really a hell? I saw this one last night. A pastor in Michigan has written a book based on whether or not there is really a hell. You can read the entire Time article here. Love Wins: A Book About Heaven, Hell, and the Fate of Every Person Who Ever Lived by Rob Bell was written as an attempt to have us all look at what we have been taught about Heaven, hell, and salvation. To encourage us to re-examine what the bible actually says, in comparison to what has been taught over time. "Rob Bell presents a deeply biblical vision for rediscovering a richer, grander, truer, and more spiritually satisfying way of understanding heaven, hell, God, Jesus, salvation, and repentance. The result is the discovery that the "good news" is much, much better than we ever imagined. Love wins." In the Time article, Gandhi is used as an example. A well respected political and ideological leader in India. He was not a Christian, so he's in hell, right?!
*The traditional church structure is being shaken up. There is a new wave of thinking that it is time to change things up a bit, in order, to reach out to those who might not feel open to attending the traditional Sunday church services. People are looking for different ways to show their spirituality. With, Excuse Me, Is This The Way To Heaven?, I talked about this more. But, there seems to be a definite pull to find new ways to reach out to others and make everyone feel more accepted. I came across this church in Daytona Beach that offers a drive-in church. I guess that if it were a beautiful day and I could sit in my convertible, with the top down, and praise God, then I would do it too. It seems to me that we are doing everything that we can to make having a relationship with God as "convenient" as possible. If this day and age, we are a society of convenience. We have the attitude of wanting everything now. Actually, it's an attitude of wanting it yesterday and we can't believe that we are having to wait for it! That is a whole different can of worms and I'm not going to open it up all the way. Just a crack, for my point today. Can we get to far away from traditions that they seem to become blurred?
For some things, I believe that it is good to question. How do you grow and learn if you do not?
On the flip side of that, can we question to much?
How much does God want us to really know?
At what point, do we start believing that we know enough or understanding more than we need to?
Will we eventually come to the point that we think that we know all that we need to and do not really need God, because we've got it all figured out? If we've reached the top of the mountain, there's only one way to go...DOWN!!

Seen a Meteor or Fireball? Send a report to Jennie McCormick! Report Form
Meteors and Meteor ShowersMeteors are caused by small particles ranging in size from a grain of sand to a pea entering the Earth's atmosphere from space at high speed. Because of the speed, which can be between about 20 km/s and 70 km/s, the particles "burn up" in the upper atmosphere, briefly leaving a visible, incandescent trail. A meteor shower may result when the Earth moves through a stream of such particles, which are usually left by a comet.
Normally a small number of "sporadic" meteors can be seen each hour of a moonless night. Sporadics are likely to be seen in any part of the sky. During a shower the number of meteors visible may increase considerably. The meteors will appear to originate from a small area of the sky, called the radiant. The spreading out from the radiant is a perspective effect due to the meteors travelling in parallel lines but as they approach the observer they appear to fan out. The shower is named after the constellation which contains the radiant. In general the meteor trails do not start from the radiant, but a few degrees from it.
The list of meteor showers shows some visible from the southern hemisphere. It includes the range of dates when the shower is active, and the peak date. The possible number of meteors per hour at the peak is also shown. It is known as the Zenith Hour Rate, ZHR, and is the number to be expected with the radiant at the zenith, directly overhead, with a dark sky and no Moon.
The state of the Moon at each peak is shown for the current year. When there is significant Moon in the sky, the number of meteors likely to be seen will be considerably reduced. Those showers with a green background colour are not likely to be affected by Moon-light in the current year, those with a grey background are likely to be more or less washed out by moon light.
Also shown is the right ascension and declination of the radiant, and a nearby bright star. This latter may help give a quick idea of where the radiant is.
The contents of this page are based on information from the International Meteor Organisation. Further details on meteor observing can be obtained from their web pages which should be consulted by anyone interested in making observations of meteors.
Further information on meteors is also be available at Meteor Showers on Line. The Comet and Meteor Section also has some information.

Notes on the Streams
Centaurids, peak February 8There are two showers with close radiants, the alpha-Centaurids and the beta-Centaurids. The two radiants, are near to one another and to the Pointers, α and β Cen. Both are active and peak near the beginning of February. The beta-Centaurids tend to be a little brighter than the alpha-Centaurids. Some can be of fire-ball class (magnitude -3 or brighter), with persistent trains. However recent peaks have shown 5 or less per hour, although bursts in 1974 and 1980 yielded about 25. This group is worth observing for another strong event, particularly when the Moon does not interfere.
Viewing is best after local midnight when the Pointers, and the radiant, gain a reasonable altitude. But the radiant is visible all night in NZ.
gamma Normids, peak March 13gamma-Normids meteors are similar to the sporadics in appearance, and for most of their activity period are virtually undetectable above this background rate. The peak itself is normally quite sharp, lasting for only a day or two either side of the maximum. The best time for observing is after midnight when the radiant reaches a reasonable elevation.
pi-Puppids, peak April 23The pi-Puppids are produced by Comet 26P/Grigg-Skjellerup. The hourly rate is variable, up to 40 an hour have been recorded. The shower is only occasionally active near the time of a perihelion passage of its parent comet. The last perihelion was in March 2008, the period of the comet is 5.3 years. The material from the comet may be spreading along the comet's orbit, so meteors may become visible in years following perihelion, such as 2013. The shower is best observed in the evening once the sky is dark. The radiant gets lower after midnight.
eta-Aquarids, peak May 5The eta-Aquarids is a fine, rich stream associated with Comet 1P/Halley, like the Orionids of October, but it is visible for only a few hours before dawn essentially from tropical and southern hemisphere sites. This has the advantage that if the Moon is waxing and a few days before full, it will set before the radiant is high enough for observation. The fast and often bright meteors make the wait for radiant-rise worthwhile, with many events leave glowing persistent trains after them.
A relatively broad maximum, sometimes with a variable number of submaxima, usually occurs in early May. The zenith hourly rates are generally above 30 for almost a week centered on the main peak. High rates are expected between 2008 and 2013. The radiant rises at about 2 am in New Zealand, so observation is best from about 5 am by which time the radiant has a reasonable altitude. The radiant culminates at about 08h local time.
Pisces Austrinids, peak July 27This is one of a group of 4 or 5 showers with close radiants active in July. The stream is rich in faint meteors, making it well-suited to telescopic work, although enough brighter members exist to make visual and photographic observations worth the effort too, primarily from more southerly sites. Observation is best from late evening when the radiant, which is within a few degrees of Fomalhaut, has gained sufficient altitude.
alpha-Capricornids, peak July 30The alpha-Capricornids are noted for their bright - sometimes fireball-class - events, which, combined with their low apparent velocity, can make some of these objects among the most impressive and attractive an observer could wish for. A minor enhancement of alpha-Capricornid Zenith hour rate to about 10 was noted in 1995 by European IMO observers. The radiant transits close to local midnight, so observation is possible for most of the night from mid evening.
delta-Aquarids and iota Aquarids, peaks July 27 to August 19Like the Piscis Austrinids, the Aquarids are all streams rich in faint meteors, making them well-suited to telescopic work, although enough brighter members exist to make visual and photographic observations worth the effort too, primarily from more southerly sites. The radiant is sufficiently high for observation from late evening.
Such a concentration of radiants in a small area of sky means that familiarity with where all the radiants are is essential for accurate shower association for all observing nights. Visual watchers in particular should plot all potential stream members seen in this region of sky rather than trying to make shower associations in the field. The only exception is when the Southern delta-Aquarids are near their peak, because rates may become too high for accurate plotting particularly from southern hemisphere sites, .
Piscids, peak September 19The Piscids can be observed from either hemisphere throughout September. There is some doubt as to when the Piscid peak occurs, or if there is only one. The radiant transits close to local midnight near the time of the peak, so observation is possible for most of the night from mid evening.
Orionids, peak October 21The Orionids is associated with Halley's Comet as are the eta-Aquarids in May. The shower has several maxima apart from the main one. For example a strong peak on October 17-18 has been observed in Europe in 1993 and 1998. Both 2006 and 2007 produced unexpectedly strong Orionid rates, with ZHRs better than the normal peak seen on two or three consecutive nights, at best up to 50-70. The 2006 return also produced a good number of bright Orionids.
For mid southern hemisphere latitudes the radiant does not reach a reasonable altitude for observation until about 2 hours before sunrise, despite rising about local midnight.
A weak shower, the epsilon Geminids, is nearly coincident with the Orionids and has a peak October 18.
More on observing the Orionids
Leonids, peak November 17The Leonids derive from comet 55P/Tempel-Tuttle last at perihelion in February 1998. A meteor storm was seen in 1999 in the region of the Canary Islands. This shower could produce some high count rates. Unfortunately, from mid southern latitudes the radiant does not rise until about 2 hours before sunrise, so activity would only be observable while very low.
More on observing the Leonids
alpha-Monocerotids, peak November 21In an outburst in 1995, this shower produced a rate of about 420 per hour - for 5 minutes! The whole outburst lasted about 30 minutes. There is little likelihood of another outburst until about 2020, so activity at best will be low. The radiant, which is only a few degrees from Procyon, is sufficiently high for observation by about an hour after local midnight at the latitude of New Zealand.
Phoenicids, peak December 6The Phoenicid return in 1956 was impressive with about 100 per hour. Activity is otherwise very uncertain. The radiant is well placed for southern hemisphere observers being high enough for observation virtually throughout the hours of darkness.
Geminids, peak December 14One of the finest annual showers but with a radiant well north of the equator. In the southern hemisphere the radiant is highest about 2 hours after local midnight (3 am NZDT), but even then is low to the north for the latitude of New Zealand. This results in only a small proportion of the meteors being visible. Even so this is a splendid shower of often bright, medium-speed meteors.
More on observing the Geminids
Possible New Meteor Shower
As reported by Stephen J O'Meara in the September 2002 issue of Sky and Telescope, a new meteor shower may have been spotted in Taurus. Observations made by Stephen in September 2001, and by French astronomers in 1996 give some indication to this.
This 'shower' is believed to peak around 14-15 September. The radiant point is between the Hyades and the Pleiades in the constellation Taurus, near a 4.3 magnitude star.
The radiant is rather low for NZ observers, but nevertheless it will be worth watching to see if any meteors radiate from that point. I suggest watching from about 4 am on both September 14 and September 15 until dawn gets too advanced. Don't expect to see huge numbers - more likely just a few per hour, if any. This is not a confirmed radiant, so we are simply interested to see if there is any activity.
If recording observations, please note the start and end time of observing run, weather conditions and limiting magnitude (brightness of faintest stars visible). Count the number of meteors you can trace to come from the radiant point in Taurus. If they radiate from anywhere else, don't count them as a shower meteor.
Please send any observations to Dennis Goodman, P O Box 2214, Christchurch who will then on-send them to Stephen O'Meara and the American Meteor Society. Or you can send observations by email to Dennis Goodman.
The chart shows the sky near the possible radiant in Taurus. At 4.30 am the Pleiades will be close to due north form New Zealand with an altitude about 20° from the south of the South Island increasing to about 30° from the north of the North Island. The view is a southern hemisphere view. Stars to magnitude 5.5 are shown. Chart produced by GUIDE 8.0.

Brominated and fluorinated organic pollutants in the breast milk of first-time Irish mothers: is there a relationship to levels in food?
Summary of "Brominated and fluorinated organic pollutants in the breast milk of first-time Irish mothers: is there a relationship to levels in food?"
Brominated flame retardants - polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs), polybrominated biphenyls (PBBs), hexabromocyclododecane (HBCD) and others - have been measured in 11 pooled breast milk samples from 109 first-time mothers in Ireland. Additionally, the study has measured levels of polybrominated dibenzo-p-dioxins and furans (PBDD/Fs), mixed halogenated dioxins (PXCC/Fs) and biphenyls (PXBs), polychlorinated naphthalenes (PCNs) and perfluoroalkylated substances (PFAS) in these samples. The mean sum of 19 PBDEs including BDE-209 was 4.85 ng g(-1) fat, which is comparable with that found in other European countries. BDE-47, BDE-153, BDE-209, BDE-99 and BDE-100 were found at the highest concentrations. The only PBBs detected consistently were BB-77, BB-126 and BB-153, with highest concentrations being found for BB-153 (mean = 0.13 ng g(-1) fat). The mean sum of HBCD enantiomers was 3.52 ng g(-1) fat, with α-HBCD representing over 70% of the total. Of the other brominated flame retardants - tetrabromobisphenol-A (TBBP-A), hexabromobenzene (HBB), decabromodiphenylethane (DBDPE) and bis(2,4,6-tribromophenoxyethane) (BTBPE) - examined, only TBBP-A was detected above the limit of detection (LOD), in two of the 11 pools analysed. All measured PBDF congeners were observed (at 0.02-0.91 pg g(-1) fat), but 2,3,7,8-tetrabromo-dibenzodioxin (TeBDD) was the only PBDD detected, with a mean concentration of 0.09 pg g(-1) fat. The occurrence of the mixed chlorinated/brominated dibenzodioxins, dibenzofurans and biphenyls, 2-B-3,7,8-CDD, 2,3-B-7,8-CDF, 4-B-2,3,7,8-CDF, PXB 105, PXB 118, PXB 126 and PCB 156 in breast milk in the current study may indicate that levels of these contaminants are increasing in the environment. Polychlorinated naphthalenes were detected in all samples, but not perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) and other PFAS. The pattern of occurrence of these brominated and fluorinated persistent organic pollutants (POPs) in Irish breast milk shows a general relationship to their occurrence in food, as reported in a number of surveillance studies carried out by the Food Safety Authority of Ireland.

Hi All,
Have deployed Shutdownertron recently - have to say it is brilliant. Love how it is so easy to deploy and manage centrally from a GPO.
However - we have our teacher machines lock automatically after a certain amount of inactivity - which means that when Shutdownertron tries to shut them down - it can't - as it doesn't pass the force command on.
The teacher machines really were our target audience for shutdownertron - they are the main culprits for leaving machines on! Is there any news on a new version? Or is there anything else out there that is as easy to use and manageable centrally?
Previously we used a script, run as a scheduled task from one of the servers, however it is becoming very difficult to manage with 500 odd computers on the network - each requiring a separate entry in the script. Have also tried TaskForce CO2 - however this still requires a lot of management and is a pain having to install the clients from the console. Didn't think there were that many improvements from PowerOut either, except for reporting which we don't need.
