If the following suggestions work, please let me know and you can Accept the answer (and if possible, leave positive feedback). If not, please DO NOT Accept the answer yet. Instead, let me know and we'll try some more things or I can refer you to another Expert who may be able to help you further.
First of all, I would suggest you run some general maintenance on the computer. It is an obvious square-one approach. I normally suggest this first because it is good practice plus if we dig too deep into a problem and simple measures could have repaired it in the beginning we'll be kicking ourselves later... This is going to be a long post so I suggest printing it out for your reference. Also, it will require a USB keyboard,
not a wireless keyboard.
First let's reset the PRAM on the computer.
1) Shut down the computer.
2) While the computer is shut down, locate these keys: command (has an apple on it), option (sometimes called alt), P, and R.
3) Turn the computer on, then press and hold Command-Option-P-R before the gray screen appears.
4) Hold these keys down until you hear the startup sound a total of 3 times.
5) Release the keys.
Next, let's try a Safe Boot. This will perform several clean up procedures that may be affecting the machine's performance and startup as well as clear out any cache here as well.
1) Shut down your computer completely.
2) Start up the computer and immediately after the startup chime, press and hold the Shift key
3) Once the gray Apple and progress indicator appear, release the Shift key
4) Note: Startup will likely take substantially longer than normal (20 - 30 minutes is not unheard of)
5) In Mac OS 10.4 or later, you will have to login to your account, even if it normally does so automatically.
6) Shut down the computer.
Now let's check / repair the disk permissions. Although this doesn't fix all problems it is a great way to start when working on a machine, besides it often cleans up any other smaller problems you may or may not be experiencing.
1) Restart the machine.
2) Before you have opened any programs, go to Applications / Utilities / Disk Utility.
3) Click the "First Aid" tab at the top and run the "Repair Permissions" after selecting your Hard Drive from the list on the left.
4) Shut down the computer.
5) Restart and see if the problem persists with Mail. If so, let me know and we'll continue to troubleshoot.
If I helped,
please click
. Otherwise I do not get paid. If you still need assistance or have further questions, I'll be glad to keep working until this issue is resolved.
FEEDBACK & Bonuses are always appreciated!
PLEASE, BEFORE leaving Negative Feedback,
allow me the chance to respond here.

I'm sorry I don't know what a USB keyboard is. My keyboard is wireless so I guess I will not be able to follow your instructions.
replied 4 years ago.
Yes, you would need a keyboard that actually is connected to the mac with a USB cord in order to perform the above procedures. A wireless keyboard will not work. What kind of mac is it? It should have came with a USB keyboard.

I will accept the answer even though I can't perform the instructions that you gave me due to the fact that I only have a wireless keyboard and mouse. Thanks for your help. I may borrow a friend's keyboard to try your suggestions.

Luther city leader resigns among controversy over racial slurs
Updated On: Oct 10 2013 06:49:00 PM CDT
A Luther Board of Trustees member has resigned among controversial remarks made and recorded.
Watch Michael Seiden's 5 PM report
Greg Atkinson came under fire for using racial slurs, and while he apologized, the people of Luther demanded a resignation.
Watch Michael Seiden's 6 PM report
He turned in his resignation just before 4:30 p.m. Thursday.
Atkinson apologized at last Tuesday's Luther board of trustees meeting. Residents said they did not accept his apology.
The NAACP also called for Atkinson's resignation. They said someone overheard Atkinson using racial slurs about the town.

CSULA 2013 - page 2
Anyone applying for fall 2013? I saw recently that they changed something,but i cant exactly point out what it is. I think it might be the statistics prereq. They also have the applications due earlier than last year anyways,... Read More
- 0Oct 8, '12 by Yoshi.Ohaha we should just switch teachers then :P
Don't stress so much with that, I actually don't have the transportation yet but hey when there's a will, there's a way.
I actually live pretty far from all those schools except channel islands but there's plenty of ways to get around and get money. It might mean walking in the rain, but in the end when We're RN's it'll be completely worth it
- 0Oct 10, '12 by Yoshi.O@sabcal i;m sorry but i'm not quite sure either..I have looked around the website but I can't find anything. I'm sorry
That's great! hopefully your counselor gives u some good advice You have plenty of options out there even though sometimes it seems so out of reach
I live in Thousand Oaks. It;s pretty much way far from the schools I want so bad lol
- 0Oct 19, '12 by suppaduppaCNAHello guyz,
I am also applying this fall and taking the TEAS V in December 8 at CSULA..I read that its going to be a paper/pencil test. I don't know if the results are going to be right away and I am afraid I am not going to meet the deadline to submit the test result. Do you know how long it takes to get the paper/pencil test results?
Thank you
- 0Oct 20, '12 by Yoshi.OHey!
I'm taking the TEAS that day as well.. don't worry. It states in the Information for applicants letter that the application packet is due the 11th BUT the scores must be submitted by Dec 28. And since you are taking it at CSULA i'm pretty sure they send the scores to them automatically.
- 0Oct 26, '12 by cxmonetHey! I actually took the TEAS today and apparently, we're going to get our results this upcoming Wednesday. The instructor said to check the ATI website for the results. You guys should really study. It DOES help!
I just don't know if my test was good enough though. :/
Hopefully it is!
- 0Nov 1, '12 by calistudent818I am hoping to apply this coming Sept. I am just starting to plan for getting my prereqs knocked out. However, I am having one heck of a time finding a Inferential statistics class??? What in the heck is that? Intro to statistics? And for the Chem 151(as well as my microbiology, Human Anat & Phys), I was planning ot take through Intergratedscienceprogram.com but they have a prereq of Intro to Chem. So would that be like Chem 101 at community college or what? I guess i have alot of calls to make to find out. If any of you know the answers to my above questions though please share.
This prereq stuff is tricky and confusing as all get out.

Let Inga Tell You: Reflections on the summer our lemon biz went sour
Watching all the neighborhood kids with their lemonade stands this week, I was reminded of the summer my 8- and 11-year-old sons decided to turn our prolific lemon tree into a wholesale lemon business. It was probably the best entrepreneurial experience either of them has ever had.
They, of course, had had plenty of lemonade stands of their own. But it didn't take too much mathematical genius to realize that their goal of owning their own Nintendo store wasn't happening with such paltry proceeds.
A survey of the back 40 (feet) had quickly revealed that we had only one cash crop: lemons. The tree, sporadically watered and never fertilized, had thrived on benign neglect and produced a seemingly inexhaustible supply of grapefruit-sized lemons. The kids hatched a plan.
The next afternoon, standing outside a now-defunct La Jolla health food store that market research had been shown to be selling Sunkist, the kids and I reviewed their pitch. Mom lectured on some of the finer points of salesmanship, such as Why We Wear Shoes During a Sales Presentation.
This is not immediately obvious to a Southern California child and turned out to be wasted anyway since the manager/surfer dude who ran the place was unshod himself.
At the appointed time, we presented ourselves, made introductions all around, and as rehearsed, explained why our product was one the House of Organicity shouldn't be without. The manager duly tasted The Product (we held our breaths) and pronounced it "good." Or maybe that was "gnarly."
My younger son, Henri, didn't miss a beat. "$2 a pound," he announced firmly, "and that's our final offer!" (This was not part of the script.)
The manager rolled his eyes. "Sorry, kid, but I can't get more than 29-cents a pound for these."
"So how about a 50-50 split?" I jumped in, also not part of the script. (Henri maintained after that I was a "weenie wimp" who had negotiated us out of any serious profits before he was even warmed up. I should mention he is now an MBA.)
Seventy pounds of lemons were ordered, deliverable immediately.
We rushed home to process the first order. As Rory picked and Henri washed, dried and polished, I gave them the crash course on quality control, about how even one overly green or rotten lemon could (excuse the expression) sour the whole deal. An hour-and-a-half later, the first order from the Pumphouse Lemon Company was on the store's counter.
"Do you have an invoice?" the manager dude asked. While I explained that the, er, invoices were still, ah, at the printer, the kids were ecstatic to receive $10.50 for a mere hour's work.
"Wow," said Rory, "why would anyone get a regular job when you can go into business?"
The next day, we not only had invoices, but a logo (a lemon) and even a slogan ("A lemon from PLC is grown with TLC.") We were impressed with ourselves.
Until I dropped into the store a few days later to check supply and discovered our lemons being sold for 49-cents a pound, not 29-cents.

Many women have experienced the heartache of miscarriage -- but "Smile" singer Lily Allen is one of few celebrities to deal publicly with her loss. In January 2008, Allen lost the baby she was expecting with musician Ed Simons. One year later, she moved on to a new relationship with entrepreneur Sam Cooper, and in August, she announced that she's expecting a baby this winter.
But recently, Allen, 25, admitted that she's having trouble enjoying her pregnancy -- because she's so afraid that something bad will happen.
"I had complications (with the pregnancy)," Allen admitted to London's The Sunday Times. "I had about a week and a half of really heavy bleeding and had to have lots of scans... I've been living in fear for the past three months."
In spite of her fears, Allen says she wants a family more than ever -- and she plans to put her pop star career on hold in order to give her children a normal life.
"It's something I've done, that I enjoyed doing, and I may go back to doing it in years to come, but I've got to believe that there is more," says Allen of her time as a Grammy-nominated songstress. "I don't think it's that much a part of me, to be honest."
We think Lily Allen is remarkably brave for being candid about her pregnancy complications. So often, celebs who discuss their pregnancies with the media gloss over all the hard parts -- and there can be lots of hard parts. Hopefully she'll inspire other young women to realize that they're not alone in their fears. And we hope the next five months go smoothly Allen and her baby (who is rumored to be a boy!).
Do you think more celebrity moms should talk about the difficulty of being pregnant? Chime in below!

Israeli-Palestinian jolt? Why some want to dismantle PA.
Their UN membership bid failed. They don't want to resume Israeli-Palestinian talks without a settlement freeze. Now some Palestinian officials have a new idea: dismantle the Palestinian Authority.
Zoubeir Souissi/Reuters
Ramallah, West Bank
The Palestinian Authority is seeking to regroup after the United Nations Security Council officially declared its bid for full UN membership to be dead.
After the Council's announcement Friday, Israeli-Palestinian relations returned to a familiar stasis this week. In talks with the Quartet (the US, UN, European Union, and Russia) yesterday, Israel sought a return to the table with no preconditions and Palestinians insisted on a settlement freeze before resuming talks.
The failed UN statehood bid is a setback for the beleaguered PA and sharpens the debate over its future, nearly two decades after it was set up as a transitional government.
In the past two years, the PA has won international praise for a reform campaign to prepare for independence. But now, amid increasing frustration that the PA is but a Palestinian façade for Israeli occupation of the West Bank, Palestinian officials are signaling they may undo PA gains by voluntarily dismantling the government and handing responsibility for daily management back to Israel.
Hani el-Masry, a Palestinian analyst close to the PA, said that the Palestinian civil affairs minister informed counterparts in the Israeli army that the Palestinian Authority plans to begin transfer authority for health and education back to Israel, potentially turning back the clock 17 years to when Israel had direct control over the daily management of Palestinians.
The counterintuitive move reflects frustration with the lack of progress in the peace process and accompanies an escalation of repeated warnings by PA President Mahmoud Abbas that he will resign if he doubts that negotiations will ever bear fruit.
Mr. Abbas declared Saturday that despite the failed UN bid, he would not dismantle the PA, but speculation persists.
Both Abbas's threats of resignation and other calls for dismantling the PA, are considered brinkmanship because they threaten a vacuum of power in the West Bank that would be a headache for Israel and the international community. It also might reflect uncertainty over what to do now that the Palestinians' controversial campaign for UN membership is moving into a different phase.

Save Mr. Hewlett
Mr. Hewlett is a great teacher and an all around great guy too. He has a uniqe, fun, and very effective teaching style. He has done a lot of good for the school, and undoubtably has the potential todo much much more. The Administration at Perry High School has asked Mr. Hewlett to finish this year and not return next year. Both in my mind and the minds of my friends they are making a huge mistake! So please sign this petition for Mr. Hewlett.

Traditional gazpacho is made with a tomato base, but this watermelon gazpacho forgoes the acidic vegetable, using a combination of cool melon (on National Watermelon Day no less!) and jasmine tea for a unique flavor blend.
Jasmine tea is a type of green tea. It is delicate, yet lightly sweet and highly fragrant, adding depth to this watermelon gazpacho recipe, which was shared with us by The Tea Association of the USA. Fresh herbs, garlic, onion, and jalapeno add further punch for a watermelon gazpacho that is anything but ordinary.
By ingredients, this recipe is dairy-free / non-dairy, egg-free, gluten-free, nut-free, peanut-free, and soy-free.
For a vegan, vegetarian, and top food allergy-friendly watermelon gazpacho, simply omit the crab.
Love this recipe Alisa! Thanks for sharing Devi

Warm Heatherette
The Bitch is a huge fan of Heatherette designers Richie Rich and Traver Rains, so she was amused that their mysterious opening party this past Thursday for the boutique Leo was actually at the store. An interesting mix of people mingled under the 27,000 light bulbs illuminating the shop at 640 Collins Ave., including Nicolai Fraiture from the Strokes, makeup artist Elaham Olan (who was totally rocking a very excellent "Egyptian Lover"-era Sylvester look), and Supermarket media moguls Michelle Leshem and José Ortiz, who provided hilarious play-by-play commentary of something rarely seen in South Beach: brawling (well, shoving) paparazzi.
The afterparty at Snatch on Washington Avenue attracted the frizzy-haired army of skanks you'd expect to frequent a place called Snatch; but that was okay for The Bitch, whom Rich and Rains walked up a deliciously deserted Lincoln Road.
Now, About That Power Outage
The fraught denizens of the Grove all told, 106 residences were sans electricity through Sunday received the following explanation of yet another weekend-by-candlelight from Florida Power & Light "duty officer" Karen Vissepo. It is reported here with corresponding Bitch dialogue:
The loss of power reported Saturday morning was incorrectly recorded as a main line rupture, and that was how the problem was addressed, and we thought it was solved and we closed out that work order on Saturday night.
But, like, about a dozen people were standing in the street looking at the exploding transformer! How'd FPL customer service confuse "exploding transformer" with "main line"?
Another work order was opened Sunday, and restoration crews were dispatched to evaluate the situation.
Well, where were they dispatched from? Seattle? How much more evaluation beyond "transformer explosion" does FPL generally require to repair, you know, an exploding transformer?
The power outage was correctly documented in terms of the transformer in the second incident report, but even though we work 24 hours a day, sometimes on a holiday weekend we just ask customers to be a little patient with us.

I know it's the season of stress but,.... this is ridiculous.
My sister's Mom-in-law passed 2:00 AM yesterday. My friend Cheryl's Mom-in-law passed in the afternoon. And this morning, at church I heard Jim (mid-50's) had a sudden massive coronary and passed yesterday.
Please people, try to not overdo and stress at this time of year. Tomorrow is coming, your friends and family want you to be here. Your presence is the greatest gift.
Smile more, worry less, You are worth it.
Do you make resolutions? I think they are a bad idea.
The word resolution implies perfection. And any changes imply Failure. If you Fail you want to give up.
Who among us is perfect? Who lives a perfect life? Does nothing unusual ever happen?
The dog never rolls in something, gets sick, bolts after a squirrel? You never get any urgent calls from friends or family? (and have to alter your plans) You only get sick on schedule? Etc,Etc. Resolutions FAIL,…..
Do make Plans and Decisions. Plans and decisions can be modified to suit the circumstances. If you can't exercise Monday morning because Mom calls and needs to go to the doctor. Then, you exercise Tuesday instead. You didn't fail, you altered your plan. YOU ROLLED WITH THE PUNCHES! You did great, you are winning.
If you don't stick to plan 100% (we are all human), it has not failed. More important, you haven't failed, and can continue from where you are at.
Happy New Year!
Remember plans can start anytime. So, if you don't start yours January 1st, there are 364 more days in 2010.
Smile and Laugh Everyday!
I read another members post yesterday about Team Maps. I had forgotten if I ever knew about them. Anyway..... I love the idea of seeing a map with a general idea of where the members live. So, I posted a request in some of my teams message boards. I'm not sure I hit all my teams, or how often everyone visits the team boards. So...
Join me on our Team Map. Team Maps shows members general locations, useful for finding exercise -support buddies. emoticon It will not show street address.
How? Go to My Tools - Start Page under Start - Account - Email Preferences. Go to Community tab. Edit Community Preferences, Click the Spark Teams link .
In the list of Spark Teams check the box for Show on Team Map
Want to see the Team Map? It can be found at bottom right of Team Page.
Hope to see you on the map soon!
I am removing myself from some of my Spark Teams. I find that I am more active on some teams than others right now. I hope none of my spark friends are offended. I just hope to concentrate on a smaller number of teams for now. I am trying redefine my focus, so some teams may come and go for a while. Like life, changes are inevitable. The teams may change but, my spark friends are always welcome! You are important to me!
Smile and Laugh Today!
The last few years just haven't seemed quite right to me. But, I always find joy and reminders of my blessings as long as I focus on the CHRIST in Christmas. Doing some inexpensive things for the season focusing on the Christian spirit bring my feelings to light.
Last Sunday I went to a Christmas concert in a local (within the county) Church. I was given the tickets but, tickets asked for nonperishable food item. So, I had a great time, (I took my mom.) helped others, too.
I enjoy helping with the adopt Christmas families at my church,too. It feels so good to contribute to those who need it. And I'm always filled with wonder at the beautiful contributions we get. Many of the used clothes we get are pristine, immaculately cared for. And many times the clothes we get are new, still bearing the tags. One of the best days to help is our distribution day. If you help with it once, you will be inspired to to help with the sorting, folding, labeling, and all the rest. Because the joy and gratitude on the families faces is truly a blessing.
Looking forward to distribution day this Saturday.

This book is a gift from God. There is no other way for me to explain its existence. Have you ever wondered why we imagine beyond the images we see and delight in words that teach more than was spoken? Could it be because we were created for a truth that is more natural and real than some of the stuff we've been taught as a fact? This tale most assuredly says it is so! Come along on this adventure, and discover the truth in the tale that is more than a story. It's about His glorious grace for your life and where you can go. You have a choice to make. Read this book and you will see. The truth awaits within His Word.
Once you turn the page of life, you cannot turn it back. The Pain from the Death of a Spouse revisits life with the living and documents the death, pain, and sorrow that will eventually come to every marriage.
This book introduces a door that every married couple will walk through, usually not together. A door that we don't like to acknowledge or even admit exists. It is the door of reality. One spouse will die before the other in almost every marriage. My spouse walked through the door and left me on the opposite side. This is my story after the door closed behind her. It is a story that speaks to the soul of mankind about life, love, marriage, death, and sorrow.
You might ask, "What gives the author the insight, the expertise, the knowledge, and the experience to write about the pain that one suffers from the death of a family member?"
Perhaps it's the pain he suffered from the death of his nineteen-year-old sister, and perhaps it's the pain he suffered from the death of his father, and perhaps it's the pain he suffered from the death of his mother, and perhaps it's the pain he suffered from the death of his brother, and perhaps it's the pain he suffered from the death of his spouse of fifty-five years, or maybe it's the love, support, and comfort God gave him during each of these deaths.
The title of this book is based on the promises and faithfulness of a gracious and loving God, who calls us out of bondage and brokenness into a glorious covenant relationship with Him.
For all who may be broken-hearted, battered and bruised by a life of confusion, misunderstanding and fear, take courage, because God is a loving Heavenly Father who knows us intimately and loves us with an unfathomable love. When we acknowledge who He is and step out in faith, He leads us into a wonderfully personal relationship full of joy, peace and promise.
The call of God is not only to those who need His healing touch in their lives but unto all who have been blessed with stability, love and peace in their family relationships, so that they may help others less fortunate.
Any who truly desire to comfort the lonely and broken hearted and to lead them to a place of peace and security will be encouraged by this book. The author has bravely exposed the truth about the pattern of abuse in her life and her desire to see others set free from bondage and fear.
Fear not for you will no longer live in shame. Your creator will be your 'husband', for the Lord has called you back from your grief. Isaiah 54 chapters 4, 5 & 6).
Prayer Father God, you heard my cry of desperation and answered with love, mercy and grace, lifting me from the depths of fear, confusion and frustration, to a place where I could enjoy comfort, peace and joy. May all who have the opportunity to read my life story, be inspired and encouraged to trust you with their lives so that You Lord may pour out your love and blessings upon them. Amen.
Is there really a way to go from broken to beautiful? When we find ourselves in a deep abyss of bad choices and shattered dreams, what's next? Is there a next? Or are we forever trapped in a sinkhole of despair and helplessness, believing this is the best life can ever be?
Beauty in the Brokenness centers around the story of the woman at the well, in addition to several of Sheila Mills's personal stories, to bring a message of hope and encouragement to those who have ever found themselves feeling trapped by their circumstances and abandoned with no way out. In this study, we will take a close look at the woman's desperate desire to remain isolated from society, how Jesus really saw her, and how God's truth can transform any person in any situation.
Come discover how a closer look at her story could change your story and transform your brokenness into everlasting beauty.
In this book, The Truth of Islam and Christianity, I present the truth and facts about both religions. When I stood at the crossroads of both religions, I viewed them without any biases. Dear earnest reader, I leave the choice to you to discern and decide which way is better for your destiny. I request you to understand the truth and recognize it. While you are reading you will hear a still and soft voice to which you have to yield. Then only you will be benefited. May peace be upon you while you read this book!
A journey to your purpose must begin with the realization that God has created you with a purpose. Purpose is defined as God's intention, plans, and will for your life. God and only God can reveal your purpose to you. This journey requires that you evaluate your spiritual heart, explore intimacy with God, and be willing to encounter the "warmth of God's love." God loves you, regardless of what you have or have not done. He will go the extra mile for you because you are valuable to Him.
A healthy "spiritual heart" is the key element in discovering your purpose. The healthier the spiritual heart is, the greater the connection with God. It is the heart that tells your true intent to God. Your heart is an important treasure to Him.
If you are going to discover your purpose with God, it must begin with an intimate relationship with Him. One must begin to inquire about who God is, what He does, how God thinks, and what His desires are. Intimate relationship with God simply means becoming spiritually connected, becoming close to God, and becoming one with Him.
The "warmth of God's love" is the only answer for a wounded heart and spirit. The warmth of God's love is God knowing what you need to become functional again spiritually. He will give you what you need to restore and heal your wounded heart and spirit.
Evolved will take you on a leadership journey from past to future. Concepts which were taught created Management rituals and myths that do not work in the 21st century. Surrendering old rituals and then embracing innovative and effective methods align the organization today and well into the future.
Many Bible teachers today are proclaiming that Christ will come at any moment to take the Christians to heaven, leaving the non-Christians behind to endure seven years of great tribulation. Others teach that Christ came spiritually in AD 70, when the city of Jerusalem was destroyed by the Romans. Is there any other view? Here is an older interpretation that was commonly held before those which prevail today.
The first part of The Great Tribulation is a verse-by-verse commentary on Matthew 24 written in readable, nontechnical style. The second part of the book contains nine articles related to the second coming of Christ and end-time events.
The Great Tribulation provides insight on these questions: What does Matthew 24 really teach? Will Christ's coming be in two stages? Does Daniel teach that there will be a seven-year tribulation? Who is the antichrist, and will he appear in a rebuilt temple? What is the "abomination of desolation"? Was the kingdom of God postponed? Will there be a thousand-year period called the millennium? Will some be taken and others left behind? What is the generation that Christ spoke of that is going to see it all?
Mary was a parent just like you; a parent with worries, fears and deep admiration for the child which God had placed in her life. She nurtured him, taught him, laughed with him, and cried with him. When it was time for him to leave home, she would have had the same mixed emotions that all parents have. But she had the clear knowledge that Jesus was fulfilling his purpose. She would have wondered about how God's plan would work out in his life.
Just as a modern parent may feel neglected or in second place to their child's ministry, Mary had to content herself with occasional glimpses of her son. She would have cherished the momentary conversations they could have, and the news that she received about him would have had to content her in place of family reunions.
Mary was a mother who tried to give advice and had to learn to keep her opinions to herself. She was a woman whose role as a mother would include the greatest sorrow a mother can know. But she also experienced firsthand the greatest hope that the world would ever know!
We often feel quite alone in our parenting, but God understands! As we struggle with our own personal frustrations and fears concerning our children we can be comforted with the certainty that God understands our frustrations and fears. God personally witnesses each stage of our lives and all the stress in our families. God knows what parental pain is because he willingly made the greatest sacrifice any parent could make.
Whatever you are going through, praying about, or suffering through you can be assured that God is at work on your behalf and of those whom you love.
Adoption and The Gospel delivers sound biblical doctrine
that most have never heard. One does not need
to be a bible scholar to understand its message!
Gerald Clark chronicles his struggle to overcome his traditional image of an orphanage, and how he learned from heart wrenching personal experiences with the children what they so desperately want and need.
Six years working with children in an orphanage in the Philippines left Gerald and his wife seeking answers to difficult and very troubling questions. "If God loves me, why am I an orphan?" "If you love me, why don't you adopt me?"
I kept asking myself , "What's wrong with this picture?"
No matter how much we love and care for children in an orphanage, they're still orphans. What's wrong with the picture is that we simply don't understand that children just don't want to BE orphans.
Would we need more orphanages if Adoption was part of the Global Mission Strategy of every evangelical church in the world?
Adoption says something about the Gospel and God's love
that no other word can say
The Gospel is incomplete if it fails to include adoption
Jesus came into the world to bring us a living example of God's love, "…so that we might receive the adoption as sons!" Galatians 4:4-5 "As many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God." John 1:12
The solution to the world's orphan crisis is found in the bible. Adoption Ministry equips the church to accomplish the task, and God has called millions of families around the world who already want to adopt!
This is a book I wrote with a passion and courage through faith. The intent was to write a few pages and have same handouts for those I met or were already acquainted with—especially for those you get to know better, as it is said, "By their fruits ye shall know them."(Mat 7:20 KJV) The needs continued to grow and likewise the information to share. As you read this book you will see the varied subjects and so much more.
Discover how a little girl's love of ponies, along with hard work and perseverance, help her dream come true.
In 2012, after sharing a number of sea stories with my only grandson, I was told I needed to write a life journal to include my years as a child in the Philippine Islands just following World War II. The journal, which addressed a time from June 7, 1935 to December 28, 2013, includes the important events of my life, including my twenty-seven years in the US Navy. As could be expected, there are more reflections from my years as a naval aviator, flying combat missions in Vietnam and numerous secret missions against the Soviet Union during the Cold War.
Not as exciting, but just as important, was my journal following my naval service after my retirement in December 1982. Most importantly, I have shared what took place in my life on June 9, 1977, two days after my 42nd birthday and two days before my oldest son graduated from high school, when I accepted Jesus Christ as the Lord and Savior of my life. This event radically changed my life and immediately healed a broken family. It also addressed the thirty-plus years in which I was called as a volunteer to serve the least of these in our prison systems. If I have a desire for the journal, it would be that it encourage others to address the importance of their spiritual needs before age forty-two and that it would challenge my grandchildren in their walk with Christ.

Barack Obama becomes the 44th President of the United States today.
It's history in the making. However, he assumes incredibly complex challenges created in the past and these are not only his problems, they become our problems. His challenges are our challenges. Still, he continues to deliver a message of hope about a brighter future.
This duality -- the problems of the past versus the hope of the future -- has marked Obama's life. It began with his birth to a white mother from Kansas and a black father from Kenya. He has always acknowledged his early struggles with being biracial. And though his parents' union failed, he dreamed big. Every challenge he faced, he overcame.
Does Obama's past success mean he can deliver a more prosperous future for us all? I hope he can. ( Photo gallery: Obama Takes Office)Obama must first contend with the challenge of perception. He arrives in office with an amazingly high approval rating, including an 84% approval of his transition to power, according to CNN. He has been compared favorably with great orators such as Rev. Martin Luther King and another president who inspired a generation: John F. Kennedy. These are great expectations. In fact as I write, I'm staring at a Starbucks' coffee cup, which demonstrates the extent to which Obama's ascension has pervaded pop culture. It repeats the famous quote from Kennedy's inaugural address: "And so, my fellow American's: ask not what your country can do for you--ask what you can do for your country."

The end of the line for the JGT is Mile Marker 50. Once deposited here, would-be travelers to Margaritaville have to cross a Publix parking lot a 100-yard hike to the Brass Monkey. Here you can catch the northbound JGT back to Miami-Dade. Or pay two bucks to get on the Key West-bound Lower Keys shuttle.
A dark-skinned man with long curly black hair, who appears to be wearing a blue dress, is standing in front of the Brass Monkey. This is Robert Ortiz, JGT's man in Marathon. Ortiz, who has worked for the bus company for four years, explains the story of the eponymous Cuban émigré owner ("It's Julia a she not Julio!").
"Five or six people," Ortiz explains, commute from Florida City to here. "I don't know them personally, [but] you have to go where the jobs are."
After a 35-minute wait, the Lower Keys shuttle pulls onto U.S. 1. It's a smaller bus, more akin to the shuttle you'd take from MIA to the Hertz lot. The air conditioning is pumping furiously. At first there are only eight people on board. One guy looks like he'd gone on a major shopping spree at the Marathon Kmart. Another passenger, a largely toothless fellow, has paint all over his clothes.
There are only two carry-overs from the JGT one is Cathi Pedersen, a fiftysomething Key Wester who is returning from a doctor's appointment in Tavernier. Pedersen whines briefly about the long ride it took her four hours on public transportation to get to her doctor, whose office is in Tavernier. That is two hours more, she guesses, than a car ride. But she says, "I'm on so many drugs prescription drugs it would have been crazy to drive."
She also notes she is an old hippie and is happy to be saving gas.
The other passenger to make the Marathon connection is Lesch. On his second ride to the Keys in two days, the backpacker says he doesn't like the vibe in Miami. "I wasn't into it," he says. "Maybe I went to the wrong place."
The ride to the Keys is uneventful no traffic, no hailing except for Lesch's surprise. In the midst of a detailed conversation about how to travel cheaply between Bahamian islands, he abruptly gets up, picks up his bags, and exits the bus at Big Pine Key.
The whole journey, on Friday, June 2, from Florida City to Key West takes a grand total of four and a half hours. Not bad, considering the trip costs less than two gallons of gas.
Some may say the ride is irritatingly long, but according to Lesch, it's worth it. "The only thing that's cheaper than this is hitchhiking.... And hitchhiking is not as reliable."

Edwards is considered one of the team's best pitching prospects. The 23-year-old posted a 2.35 ERA over two levels in 2014.
Edwards allowed one run on one hit and three walks in 3 2/3 innings. He struck out six. Edwards has a 1.59 ERA and eight strikeouts in two starts (5 2/3 innings) with the AZL Cubs.
"I'm very, very close right now," Edwards said. "During my last live batting practice session, they put the radar gun on me, and I'm back to 94 mph with a good curveball and good changeup. Things are moving smoothly. I'm taking my time. (Wednesday) might not be my best start, but as long as I'm back on the mound, I'm happy."
Edwards threw long toss from a distance of about 150 feet while also pitching a 30-pitch bullpen session Tuesday. He has been sidelined since April while recovering from a shoulder strain and fatigue. Edwards is expected to resume competing with Double-A Tennessee after two starts in the Arizona League. He's also likely to participate in the Arizona Fall League if he can stay healthy.
The MRI did reveal inflammation in his shoulder, but it was otherwise structurally sound. He'll rest for a couple of weeks before starting a throwing program.
Edwards is scheduled to undergo an MRI to determine the extent of the issue. Edwards came over to the club in the Matt Garza deal, and was considered the team's top pitching prospect in 2014.
It was the first Cactus League start for the highly-regarded rookie. He went 8-2 with a 1.86 ERA, 1.01 WHIP and 155:41 K:BB ratio in 116 1/3 innings between Class A and high Class A last season.
Edwards has posted a 1.84 ERA and 0.68 WHIP in four starts since joining the rotation at Class A Daytona. He is 8-2 with a 1.83 ERA and 0.98 WHIP in 22 starts (Class A) this season. He's struck out 142 batters in 108 innings.
Edwards, who walked one and allowed one hit Sunday, was 8-2 with a 1.83 ERA in 18 starts for Class A Hickory prior to being dealt. He struck out 122 batters and walked 34 in 93 1/3 innings.
"I'm doing the same things that got me to this point in my career," Edwards said, per MLB.com. "Going out each and every day, ready to fight."
The initial plan for the Rangers is for Garza to start Wednesday against New York. Olt and Grimm were immediately sent to Triple-A Iowa, and Edwards heads to Class A Daytona.
Grimm has the most major-league experience with 22 appearances and 19 starts with the Rangers over the last two seasons. He was 7-7 this year with a 6.37 ERA over 17 starts with 68 strikeouts over 89 innings. Grimm should jump into the Cubs' rotation in Garza's spot.
Olt has played in 16 big-league games, all came last season. He hit .152 in 33 at-bats with five RBI. The 24-year-old was batting .213 in 65 games with Triple-A Round Rock.
Edwards, 21, was playing with Class A Hickory but has shown loads of potential. He's 13-5 over two pro seasons with a 1.68 ERA. He has 122 strikeouts with Hickory this season over 18 starts and 93 1/3 innings.

|the master bather
by Peter Schjeldahl
Pierre Bonnard, June 21 - October 13, at the Museum of Modern Art, 11 West 53rd Street, New York, N.Y. 10019.
Pierre Bonnard is so harmless a little master that to attack his modest prestige, on the occasion of this summer-colored retrospective, demands a reason. I have one. It is that artists today are finding ways to revive painting, which history has ground down for over half a century, and none of the ways gets any useful boost from Bonnard (who died in 1947 at the age of 79). Indeed, his work epitomizes an art that is on its last legs as a culture-changing enterprise -- practically impatient to be over and done with.
There is decadence that excites and decadence that enervates. Bonnard's is the second sort: edgeless, nerveless, weird, fussy. He isn't mindless, exactly, but he withholds his mind from his transactions with painting. For thought, he substitutes maundering on autopilot. His compass is a vague tastefulness. This comforts people who dislike thinking. I submit that such people are already comfortable enough, on their own lookout, and should not be indulged.
He could really handle pigment, but he didn't quite paint with it. Rather, working on tacked-up, unstretched canvases, he plastered little walls with colored stuff. His pictures are incredibly devoid of compositional tension and tonal snap. Even his brightest infusions of eye-candy hue just sort of lie there, wishing to be admired. Compare Bonnard's colleague Edouard Vuillard, whose superior brand of genteel decadence is viscerally alert. Vuillard explores a claustrophobic but living world. Bonnard is off by himself somewhere, busy with brushes.
He is in the bathroom with Marthe de Méligny, probably. His life-long companion, besides being tubercular and/or asthmatic and/or a hypochondriac, was agoraphobic and bathed compulsively. She was always in the tub. She lied to Bonnard about her name and age when they met in 1893, as he did not learn until he married her 32 years later. He painted her at least 384 times, never with real attention to her face and invariably, even when she was 72 years old and dying, as a nubile young woman. They were childless.
Bonnard's one girlfriend identified in the show, Renée Monchaty, committed suicide the year he married Marthe. You might say that his love life lacked champagne sparkle. He was a pinched, unsmiling man who looked like a stereotypical accountant. He lived uneasily in spartan surroundings. His strongest paintings, aside from intermittent tours de force, are terrifying late self-portraits: the artist's wizened features darkened by backlighting. How does so grim a character get cast as an angel of sunlight and sensuality?
That's his reputation: one foot in the museum and the other in among glossy-magazine perfume ads. Bonnard's art is a very French product line, irresistible to some ever-francophile segments of the U.S. upper culturati. The French like to cultivate one or another bodily sense -- or, in philosophy, the disembodied brain -- to the pointed exclusion of anything else. Bonnard cuts to the chase of eyesight, which he provides with much puzzle-solving work to do. But the work is trivial.
MoMA curator John Elderfield, in the show's catalogue, imputes "revolutionary" import to the notion that painting is "not a representation of substance but a representation of the perception of substance." First, that idea could apply to no end of things. Second, so what? Does a painting's type of representation have anything crucial to do with its worth as a painting?
The answer is that it may, but only if the painting's initial effect draws us into fascinated reflection on its mental process -- and then only if the reflection takes us somewhere interesting. Think of Picasso, Matisse, Mondrian, Pollock, and de Kooning. They can get us speculating on their decisions like a kid ripping into presents on Christmas morning, and we come away with perked-up awareness of art and ourselves. Bonnard? Hardly.
One landscape in the show, The Garden (1936), and one naked Marthe, Nude Crouching in the Bath (1940), elated me. Each is daringly awkward, with disjointed parts that compete for attention and interpretation. These pictures challenge me to perceive the secrets of their coherence, because they do hang together somehow in my experience. I try and keep failing, but I don't get frustrated. Bonnard fights back! I feel that I am dealing with a passionately complicated person. What does this remind me of?
It reminds me of another little-master retrospective, the stirring one of Chaim Soutine at the Jewish Museum. Now, there was a guy who made painting seem necessary. Soutine's violent restlessness disdains all ideals of beauty, in fact. For me, there is more erotic pith to a flayed ox by Soutine than to any of Bonnard's poached womanflesh. Bonnard is a stranger to beauty. His stuff isn't even pretty. It isn't vulgar. It isn't much of anything, maybe except expensive.
Harmless, in other words. No gain, so no pain -- in the work, that is. Plenty of pain looms in the psychic vicinity, once you start imagining the existential state that the work indicates. Directly isolated, Bonnard palpably squirmed away from consciousness of his malaise. This meant not thinking. And, since drawing is thinking, it meant banishing drawing when he painted. (When he made drawings, he was a sprightly illustrator.) It meant not actually looking at anything, especially Marthe.
I think that Bonnard worked in a masturbatory trance, fixating on ritualistic fantasy images and visual sensations that, by some associative route, aroused him. The scene is peacefully domestic, but the mood is desperately surreal. In her catalogue essay, Tate Gallery curator Sarah Whitfield relates Bonnard to Proust. The comparison is good, but only on a level of parody. Bonnard was a Proustian so far gone in remembrance that he was as likely to stick a madeleine up his nose as nibble it.
A quote from Bonnard occupies this show's last wall: "There is a formula, which fits painting perfectly, many little lies create a great truth." Wrong. In painting that works, many little truths create a great mystery. Liars need not apply, because they do not provide the basis of trust on which our souls -- in art's great payoff moments -- can merge with theirs. I simply can't imagine a heartfelt way of digging Bonnard that is not titillated or pitying. I want better things, which thank goodness are not in short supply.

How Competitive is Northern Virginia Comm College? - page 2
I want to become an RN. I have done all the pre-reqs at Northern Virginia Community College. And I have taken the TEAS but need to redo the math section. I heard that the program is hard to get into and my GPA is only a 2.75... Read More
- 0Apr 14, '11 by excitedtobehereI'm so thrilled to finally talk to someone with something POSITIVE to say about nursing! I know a lot of people come to this site to vent, but it really is unsettling to read all this rants about how much people hate nursing. Thanks for making me feel better about my choice! Good luck to you in the future!
- 0Apr 26, '11 by PrincessGooseyBearI applied for the traditional nursing program that started in 2010 and was not accepted. I had a 2.9 GPA and was in the 80s-90s for all of my TEAS sections. I also live in Fairfax County. Since then I have retaken some courses that I had not done well in and brought my GPA up to a 3.79. I am hoping to be a lot more competitive this time around.
- 0Feb 5, '13 by summer03I have seen where they hire a lot of LPNs for home health care and there are a growing number of opportunities in home health care. Admission to NVCC Traditional Nursing is very competive, pretty much along the lines expectedtobehere said. I got in Fall 2010 with a 3.8, for example. It also is a lot of work once you are in the program and I graduated in Spring 2012 with a 3.4. I currently work at INOVA Fair Oaks as an RN1 and am making almost $70K/year because I get a differential for being on the night and weekend shift, which was the only placement available to me as an ADN. The hospitals seem to give prefence to BSNs, but demand has been sufficient for more people in my class to still have been hired by hospitals than for any other type of job. NOVA nurses seem to have very good reputations with hospitals and it was not much work for me to get a job in one. When you factor in benefits, hospitals are paying nurses twice what home health care pays.Last edit by summer03 on Feb 5, '13 : Reason: typo

Accused bank robber who got Boston city promotion resigns
Updated On: Apr 01 2014 06:59:26 PM EDT
A Boston city employee was promoted after she was charged as a bank robber, the Boston Herald reported Tuesday.
Susan M. Coppinger, 47, of Dorchester, who was arrested on charges she robbed the Santander Bank in Quincy on Dec. 13, received a promotion in the city's Inspectional Services Department a month later.
Coppinger was working because she had been released on $1,000 bail after her arrest. She has also been charged with the Nov. 16 robbery of the same bank.
Coppinger resigned from her position Tuesday, sources told NewsCenter 5.
Before her arrest, her photo appeared on the MassMostWanted.com website, Quincy police said.
Coppinger, who was hired during the administration of former Mayor Thomas Menino, was promoted after Marty Walsh became mayor in January to a job paying $38,881 per year.
"The employee has been charged with unarmed robbery in Quincy. She has been placed on administrative leave as the city of Boston investigates her alleged involvement in these charges," Walsh spokeswoman Kate Norton told the newspaper. "She was placed on leave last week, as soon as the city of Boston was made aware of these charges."
Coppinger did not return the newspaper's phone calls, but her son, who said he was only aware of his mother being charged with one bank robbery, described her as a good woman who has run into hard times.

Momentum and Reversal: Does What Goes Up Always Come Down?

We provide evidence that stocks in a momentum portfolio, which contribute to momentum profits, do not experience reversal in the long run. Conversely, stocks in the momentum portfolio, which do not exhibit relative strength in the short run, exhibit reversals in the long run. Merging these separate subgroups of securities into a single portfolio causes momentum and reversal patterns to appear linked. We show that stocks with momentum can be separated from those that exhibit reversal using stock characteristics. And, a portfolio that isolates momentum stocks displays large and persistent returns, despite the fact that these securities should be associated with low limits-to-arbitrage. In addition, these returns do not vary with behavioral proxies. The evidence on momentum returns appears to be more consistent with differences in expected returns, rather than models that assume initial mispricing and long-term correction.
