Steinberg's History of Congregation Children of Israel Now Available On-LineIn 1982, Jack Steinberg, long-time member of Congregation Children of Israel, completed work on his comprehensive history of the Temple titled "United for Worship and Charity, A History of Congregation Children of Israel". This 114 page book was the culmination of more than 10 years of research and traces the history of Jews in Georgia and in Augusta. The congregational history goes back to 1846 and follows the various locations of the synogogue as well as the establishment of religious school and cemetaries. Many photographs also adorn this work.

He welcomes suggestions, news tips, links of pure genius, and pictures of pets in Halloween costumes here, though he already knows he will regret that last part.

There are two sports that have become absurdly popular, in part, because they have this figured out. One is college football, which has the weekly Top 25 poll to lean on. It takes two seconds to figure out what's at stake when you turn on a college football game; if you see #3 vs. #6, you know it's a big game, even if it happens to be Boise State vs. Oklahoma State, or some other matchup of nontraditional powers. Throw in the regional rivalries, and what's at stake comes through the television loud and clear.
The other one is English soccer, which has gained a surprisingly large foothold on American television. A combination of a much freer market for talent, the lack of an effective salary cap, and teams owned by oil gazillionaires mean that only three English soccer teams have a shot at winning the league title, and only about seven have a chance of being any good at all. This is terrible for league parity, and I imagine if you happen to be a die-hard Fulham fan, it'd be immensely frustrating. For American fans, though, it makes the league intuitively easy to understand; even casual fans know that Chelsea vs. Manchester United is a big game, and that if Manchester City is playing Swansea City, then Swansea are the scrappy underdogs. Either way, knowing what's at stake is simple.
This week, American soccer star Clint Dempsey made a surprise return to America, leaving English club Tottenham for the Seattle Sounders. Grant Wahl of Sports Illustrated covered the details of the transaction, but the thing that stood out to me is that Major League Soccer - which is run as a single entity, and thus governs player allocation in cases like this - made no bones about wanting Dempsey to go to what it clearly considers one of the league's marquee teams in Seattle.
MLS has long suffered from a decided lack of big teams and big games. Even if they're both good teams, the excitement of a Colorado-Montreal game just doesn't come through the screen. It's possible that this Dempsey allocation, while potentially not great for league parity, at least shows that MLS is starting to think about making the league interesting to the casual fan.
*On with the links:
*Weekend links favorite Parker Hageman talks with Jared Burton about pitching, and it's fascinating.
*This cartoon by Molly Brooks explains, better than I ever could, why sports are better than fiction and reality TV and pretty much every other form of entertainment.
*Clint Irwin is the Colorado Rapids' starting goalkeeper, but as somebody who's making the league rookie minimum and has played in the lower North American leagues, he can describe for you exactly how hard it is to scratch out a living.
*At Grantland, Sean McIndoe fixes the NHL, and I must say I pretty much entirely agree with him.
*Joe Posnanski writes about Cap Anson, but really about the entire Hall of Fame debate and who belongs in the Hall.

Rate Dr. Susan K. Peeler
Dr. Susan K. Peeler's Ratings
I am a fairly new patient of Dr. Peeler. I have been seeing her for just over a year. I find it easy to make appointments and I have never had to wait very long. I was having VERY heavy periods and Dr. Peeler suggested I try birth control. I tried the pill but I had awful mood swings so I had to stop taking it. Dr. Peeler suggested doing the Novasure procedure and we went ahead and scheduled it. I could not be happier. The procedure was done the first week of May and I had some very minor cramping afterwards. I had some watery discharge for about 2-3 weeks and now nothing. I haven't even had a period even though I had some PMS symptoms last week. I feel like I have my life back. Dr. Peeler answered all my questions and I'm so happy she suggested the abalation.

The staff has always been helpful, knowledgeable, and accurate in their assessments. Dr. Peeler was thorough and the diagnoses seems to be right on. Following my D&C things are back to normal as expected.

Dr. Peeler is a very no-nonsense sort of woman. She always gives off an air of being far too busy for her patients. She often got impatient when I was talking, and would cut me off mid-question. Her responses to questions were always very condescending. The information may have been accurate, and she never called me dumb or anything, but I left feeling stupid. She's also very dismissive of pain. One time, I actually went to the ER because of terrible, sudden, sharp pain. After some examination, they told me it was likely an ovarian cyst that burst. After an ultrasound didn't show any large cysts, Dr. Peeler told me it couldn't have possibly been an ovarian cyst because the remnants would be visible on the ultrasound. She then told me that everyone has cramps sometimes, and refused to discuss it further. While it may be true that I did not have an ovarian cyst, her unwillingness to investigate the source of spontaneous agonizing pain was really off-putting.

The initial visit was friendly enough . I had two miscarriages and wanted to know if there was any testing that could be done to show why I miscarried. Dr. Peeler recommended progesterone supplementation for the next pregnancy if I should get pregnant again. Well, during my follow up, sh acted like she didn't knw what I was talking about. She treated me like she had never met me and suggested a fertility clinic. After this, her nurse called and suggested I have a d&c to remove a cyst. What??!! Never again. I do not recommend this doctor. She is cold and indifferent and I would dare say, unkind.

Dr. Susan Peeler were wonderful in solving my health issue. The enitre team is helpful and compassionate. Dr. Susan has the best manner with scared patients and explains treatment in terms that are easily understood.

Dr. Peeler was rushed and cold during my visit. My exam was rough and she had no time for questions from me. I had a question about some severe PMS symptoms I've been having, and she told me to talk to my primary care doctor. Isn't that an issue for a gynecologist, the specialist in that area? I won't be going back.
Was this rating useful? 0 [[ userState['ratings'][290352].votes_count ]]
Dr. Peeler told me that the problems that I was having were 'normal.' Common is not the same as normal. She then did a rough exam and acknowledged that I did have a separate issue, but offered no solutions. She came highly recommended and was the third doctor I'd seen trying to figure out what's wrong, so at this point I lost it. She handed me a box of tissues, said 'sorry' and left. Bedside manner gets a zero as do problem solving skills. She's a general gyn, she should be able to direct me to a specialist if she can't help me. Blech.
Was this rating useful? 0 [[ userState['ratings'][290351].votes_count ]]
Dr. Peeler rushed through my annual exam and the entire appointment. I've never felt so "blown off" by a doctor in my life. I had a couple of questions for her, and she actually started talking over me about something else before I finished asking the first question. It seemed I was slowing her down. When she did answer my question, she was very condescending. She is very cold and unsympathetic in a specialty where a kind, understanding, and compassionate doctor is a must. I won't be going back.
Was this rating useful? 0 [[ userState['ratings'][290350].votes_count ]]
I love Dr. Peeler. I am a new patient and I thought she couldn't have been nicer. She spent lots of time with me.
Was this rating useful? 0 [[ userState['ratings'][290349].votes_count ]]
I thought it was just me but I do not reccomend this doctor. I had her staff ask befor emy appointment if she does Bio Identical Hormone Replacement Therapy and I was told yes. When I arrived she kept trying to sell me on the synthetic form of HRT. She barely did a pelvic exam and was annoyed when I asked questions. I won't be back.

Officials Remind Motoring Public About the Importance of Scott's Law
CHICAGO – Illinois State Police Director Hiram Grau today released the following statement regarding the fatal crash that claimed the life of an Illinois Tollway maintenance worker, Vincent Petrella, and seriously injured a District 15 State Trooper, Douglas J. Balder, on Monday, January 27, 2014.
"On behalf of the men and women of the Illinois State Police, I offer condolences to Vincent Petrella's family and to the entire Illinois Tollway. It is also with deep sadness that we offer our support and deepest sympathies to the family of Trooper Douglas Balder, who remains in serious condition and is expected to recover. These first responders are dedicated to service and risk their lives every day to keep citizens and roads safe."
Trooper Balder was on duty in his ISP squad car when his vehicle and Petrella's tollway maintenance vehicle were struck by a truck tractor semi-trailer at I-88 eastbound at Eola Road. Both were responding to assist a disabled truck tractor semi-trailer. Trooper Balder is 38 years of age and has been a member of the Illinois State Police since 2007.
The Illinois State Police is also urging the motoring public to respect Scott's Law, and to use caution when approaching stationary authorized emergency vehicles displaying flashing lights, or any other large emergency equipment on the interstates and roads.

TheStreet.com Ratings: Stock Upgades, Downgrades
Each weekday, TheStreet.com Ratings updates its ratings on the stocks we cover. Our model projects a stock's total return potential over a 12-month period including both price appreciation and dividends. Our buy, hold or sell ratings designate how we expect these stocks to perform against a general benchmark of the equities market and interest rates.
While our model is quantitative, it uses both subjective and objective elements. For instance, subjective elements include expected equities market returns, future interest rates, implied industry outlook and forecasted company earnings. Objective elements include volatility of past operating revenue, financial strength and company cash flows.
Some recent rating changes are highlighted below.
SYS Technologies (SYS) has been downgraded to a sell from a hold. The company creates information connectivity systems for government and commercial clients, allowing them to monitor data in real time. SYS has reported a trend of declining earnings per share over the past two years. The company also posted a negative return on equity in the second quarter of fiscal 2007, which TheStreet.com Ratings feels is a signal of major weakness. The company had been rated a hold since May 2006.Private mortgage insurance provider Triad Guaranty (TGIC) has been downgraded to a hold from a buy. Triad's revenue rose by just 27.9% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006 compared to the same quarter a year ago. Revenue throughout the thrift and mortgage finance industry grew at an average pace almost twice that rate over the same time period. TheStreet.com Ratings feels rising interest rates, mortgage loan reductions and a possible increase in delinquencies make stocks in this sector vulnerable going forward. Triad had been rated a buy since March 2006.

Come Close to Rest
Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light. – (Matthew 12:28-30)
The burdens that we take up and try to carry are far too heavy and not meant for our shoulders. Some of these may include: our sin, excessive demands, oppression and persecution, and weariness in the pursuit of paths we were never meant to walk alone. Christ sets us free from the weight of the yoke our shoulders should not bear, and grants us rest in Him. Through our relationship with Jesus, the seemingly meaningless and mundane, can become spiritually productive and purposeful, as Christ comes and provides us with His peace, love, healing and help. He makes our yoke easy and our burdens light, in comparison to the weight of the way we were attempting to walk alone. May we lay hold of the rest Christ provides for our souls as we sincerely seek Him.
are weighing us down;
we need seek Christ,
where answers are found.
Jesus is kind,
and humble in heart;
He is gentle,
where solutions start.
Rest for weary,
strength when we feel weak;
gone are burdens,
we're not meant to keep.
His peace given,
healing and help too;
restored purpose,
refreshed and renewed.
Come near, dear ones,
He will grant us rest;
sweet interlude,
Christ's great faithfulness.
Dear Heavenly Father, thank You that You do not desire for us to carry the weight of the world. Thank You that You ask us to come to You and give You our burdens, and allow You to carry the weight that was never meant for us, and You replace it with that which You equip us to bear. Thank You that You are gentle and humble and have rest ready for our weariness. Forgive us for trying to carry things that we were never meant to bear, and help us to lay down the loads before You. Teach us to trust You more, so that we may continually come before You and hear clearly what we are meant to carry, and what we are to hand over to You. Lead us to walk in love, unburdened by loads not meant for us. May many come to know You, as they witness the freedom we have found in the ease of Your yoke. Be exalted, Lord God, as we learn from You each new day. Amen.

Boast in the Beloved
This is what the Lord says: "Let not the wise man boast of his wisdom or the strong man boast of his strength or the rich man boast of his riches, but let him who boasts boast about this: that he understands and knows Me, that I am the Lord, who exercises kindness, justice and righteousness on earth, for in these I delight," declares the Lord. – (Jeremiah 9:23-24)
Though we often value wisdom, strength, riches and kindness in ourselves and others, they are nothing if they are not rooted and established in Christ. God is exhorting us to focus our energy and attention on knowing and understanding Him. As we do, kindness, justice and righteousness will flow from us, and He will delight in us. Any wisdom, strength, riches or kindness that we have, are gifts given from the Lord. Our only boast ought to be of Him and how great He truly is. Let us lift our hearts and hands in thanksgiving for who He is unto us.
and riches galore;
all that man has,
are gifts from the Lord.
No one should boast,
in gifts of delight;
but boast in He,
Who sets all wrongs right.
As we invest,
in Christ our true King;
kindness pours out,
equipped offerings.
Dear Heavenly Father, thank You that we may boast in You. Thank You that You exercise kindness, justice and righteousness on the earth, for those in whom You delight. Thank You that You delight in Your children. Thank You that when we choose to place our trust in You, we are adopted as Your sons and daughters forever. Forgive us for thinking too much of ourselves or others for gifts that You have given. Help us to recognize the strengths as gifts, and give You glory for them. May we use all that You have given us for Your glory, and may many come to know You personally, as we go forth in loving obedience to all that You ask. Be glorified, O God, as we seek to understand and know You more today. Amen.

I thank and praise You, O God of my fathers: You have given me wisdom and power. – Daniel 2:23
Steadfast in Trust
You will keep in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast, because he trusts in You. – (Isaiah 26:3)
Though strife and struggle are inevitable in this life, the perfect peace of Christ, is not. When we are devoted to Him in all of our ways, we remain steady, even in the raging storms. That does not mean that we are not aware of the wind and waves surrounding us, but rather in spite of the storm, we know our Source of safety, and we find peace in the midst of storms, as we fix our eyes on He alone who is far greater than anything that comes against us. May we keep our mind steadfast on Christ, and ever trust in the mighty power and unchanging love of our great God.
in the midst of storms;
when we cling to Christ,
our outlook transforms.
We need not look at,
the wind and the waves;
but rather at Him,
Who makes our heart brave.
Not by our own strength,
but in His alone;
peace covers our hearts,
as truth is made known.
His mighty power,
and unchanging love;
can silence our storms,
grant peace from above.
So trust in the Lord,
be steadfast in mind;
no matter what comes,
His peace we will find.
Dear Heavenly Father, thank You that You grant us Your perfect peace, even in the midst of raging storms, when we fix our minds and hearts on You in trust. Thank You that Your Spirit in us grants us the strength that we need to hold onto what is true. Forgive us for our fearfulness at all that is seen, and help us to truly trust You with all that You are doing in the unseen. Thank You that You are always moving on our behalf, even when we are unaware. Help us to be steadfast in our faith, and love others as You so lavishly love us. May many come to know Your mighty power and unchanging love personally, and enter into a lasting relationship with You. Be exalted, O God, as we seek to stay steadfast in trust. Amen.

Breaking Free from Barriers
For Christ did not enter a man-made sanctuary that was only a copy of the true one; He entered Heaven itself, now to appear for us in God's presence. – (Hebrews 9:24, NIV)
Christ went into the Most Holy Place. But it was not the man-made one, which is only a copy of the real one. He went into Heaven, and He is there now before God to help us. – (Hebrews 9:24, ERV)
Before Christ came and sacrificed Himself on the cross, the high priest was only allowed to enter the Most Holy Place once a year to make atonement for the sins of the people with a blood offering. When Jesus came and suffered on our behalf, He broke down the barriers that limited our access to the presence of our great High Priest. When Christ sacrificed Himself, the price was paid – once and for all. No longer do we have need for an earthly mediator to communicate with God. Jesus is seated at the right hand of the Father, continually contending for us. We are seen through the veil of His righteousness, and received as coheirs with Christ. Let us boldly approach the throne of mercy and grace, as we seek to serve Him all of our days.

a longing heart,
and Christ unseen.
Each honest cry,

our great High Priest,

Look to the Lord,
in suffering;
let gratitude,
from our lips, sing.
Direct access,
to His mercy;
let love and grace,
set our hearts free.
Dear Heavenly Father, thank You that You sent Your one and only Son to make the way for us to have direct access to You. Thank You Jesus, for enduring our sin and shame on the cross. Thank You for conquering the grave and returning to the right hand of the Father, so that You can advocate for us. Forgive us for our foolishness that thinks that we have to do or be enough to somehow earn what You freely give. Teach us to embrace Your mercy and grace, and to go forth in gratitude to serve. May we extend Your love and light to all those whom we encounter, and may many come to know You, personally, as a result. Be magnified as we move past every barrier that might hinder us. Amen.

No More Darkness
For you were once in darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light (for the fruit of the light consists in all goodness, righteousness, and truth). – (Ephesians 5:8-9)
Because we are in Christ, our actions ought to reflect our faith. Morally, we are meant to magnify our Maker with our every move. All that we say and do, is either shining His light into darkness, or casting a shadow where light needs to shine. We are called to live as light. May we operate in such a way that His goodness, righteousness and truth are made evident through every move we make.
living in the dark;
we now know the truth,
flame grew from a spark.
Called to be children,
that live as His light;
to shine in darkness,
show His path that's right.
Gone are the shadows,
that chained us to sin;
where light is shining,
darkness cannot win.
In goodness go forth,
both righteous and true;
shine on for the Lord
let our lives bear fruit.
Dear Heavenly Father, thank You that You rescued us from the darkness that surrounded us in our brokenness, and filled us with Your light. Thank You that You call and equip us to be Your children, who You allow to share Your light with the world. Forgive us for not consistently expressing goodness, righteousness and truth in all that we do, and help us to do just that, in all things and at all times. Let our lives be lived as light unto You. May many come to know salvation in You, as we live and love as You love us. Be glorified, O God, as we live as Your children of light. Amen.

But because of His great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ. – Ephesians 2:4-5
An Appropriate Answer to Anger
A fool gives full vent to his anger, but a wise man keeps himself under control. – (Proverbs 29:11)
Considering the multitude of injustices taking place in the world around us, it is easy to become angered at the outrage. However, when we are in Christ, we are called to handle ourselves in such a way, that the world sees a difference – even when we are angry. This does not mean we are to sweep offenses that need attention under the rug, but rather we are to approach them in the opposite spirit, with the intent to bring healing and wholeness to the offender as God provides opportunity.
In your anger do not sin. Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry, and do not give the devil a foothold. – (Ephesians 4:26-27)
"The Bible doesn't tell us that we shouldn't feel angry, but it points out that it is important to handle our anger properly. If vented thoughtlessly, anger can hurt others and destroy relationships. If bottled up inside, it can cause us to become bitter and destroy us from within. Paul tells us to deal with our anger immediately in a way that builds relationships rather than destroys them. If we nurse our anger, we will give Satan an opportunity to divide us. Are you angry right now? What can you do to resolve your differences? Don't let the day end before you begin to work on mending your relationship." – (NIV footnotes)
There are times when reconciliation is neither possible, nor wise. In such cases, all that we can do is continually give our anger to God, and trust Him bring about His justice. Despite what we see in the here and now, all will have to one day answer for what we have or have not done. May His wisdom grant us control, so that we may properly deal with anger.
that rages in sin;
choose His control,
Christ's peace from within.
Allow it not,
to fester and grow;
go deal quickly,
don't grant a foothold.
God's great wisdom,
will show us the way;
to make amends,
and forgive each day.
Vengeance is not,
for us to decide;
pray for a change,
His justice preside.
Dear Heavenly Father, thank You that You are loving and kind and full of grace, yet You show us time and time again throughout Your word, that vengeance is Yours. Thank You too, for helping us to understand that anger in and of itself is not a bad thing, but rather it is what we do with our anger that determines whether or not we are responding in righteousness. Thank You that if we choose to listen to You and follow what You ask, we need not sin in our anger. Forgive us for our outbursts and for the times that we have stayed silent and harbored anger in our hearts. Teach us to trust You enough to act according to Your good and perfect will for us – even as anger arises. Thank You that anger is a call to action. May we answer the call and act accordingly. Let us love when those who have offended expect spite, and may they come to know that You are the reason for our love. Let the lost find You. Be glorified God, even as we act on what has angered us. Amen.

His Love Endures Forever
Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good. His love endures forever. – Psalm 136:1
The entire 136th Psalm is a series of thanks and praise for God's faithfulness, followed by the phrase, His love endures forever. In the midst of the chaos of the coming close of the school year, accompanied by various other challenges, my heart is stirred to simply create my own list of thanks for His faithfulness, acknowledging how His love, does indeed, endure forever. Perhaps you too, might take a moment to reflect upon His faithfulness, and how His love endures forever.
To Him who grants me light and life on earth,
His love endures forever.
Protected my babies before their birth,
His love endures forever.
Who provided a house that is our home,
His love endures forever.
Placed us in a loving church of our own,
His love endures forever.
Whom we can fully trust and call upon,
His love endures forever.
Who provides a place to teach and grow strong,
His love endures forever.
Supplies faithful colleagues, whom I call friends,
His love endures forever.
Granted family, Faithful knows no end,
His love endures forever.
To Him who lifts me each time that I fall,
His love endures forever.
And to the Holy, whom hears every call,
His love endures forever.
To the One who sees every tear that's shed,
His love endures forever.
And to Him who's leading this life I've led,
His love endures forever.
To the One who forgives my every wrong,
His love endures forever.
And to Him who deserves my every song,
His love endures forever.
All praise unto You, Mighty, Righteous One,
Your love endures forever.
To the blessed Savior, Jesus, the Son,
Your love endures forever.
To His Spirit, who shows what need be done,
Your love endures forever.
Dear Heavenly Father, thank You thank Your love lasts forever. Thank You that it is a gift that You give to us, not because we are worthy, but because we are Your created, whom You love. Thank You that when we come to You and surrender ourselves unto You, You meet us where we are, and exchange our sinfulness for Your righteousness, making it possible for us to enter into Your Holy presence, always. Forgive us for not thanking You often enough for Your great faithfulness. Teach us to have an attitude of gratitude, always. Thank You that no matter what is going on around us, our hope is secure in You. May we live and love as You so faithfully and lavishly love us, and may many come to know Your eternal love, personally, as they enter into a lifelong relationship with You. Be exalted, Lord God, as our lives express songs of praise unto You. Amen.

Taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the man who takes refuge in Him. – Psalm 34:8
Not a Matter of Talk
"For the kingdom of God is not a matter of talk but of power." – (I Corinthians 4:20) Talking about faith is good, but only if it can be backed up with action. Speaking the "right" words without reflecting God's redemption, holds no value. If our words and our actions do not align, neither will hold any weight with those whom we might hope to influence.
In my own life, the people who have best modeled a life of faith, are not always just those who are regular speakers and teachers, but they may also be those who have faithfully and consistently served. Often, it is those who serve on the sidelines and have spoken countless words of encouragement and wisdom, that have found favor as their gentle approach has given them access to even the most guarded of hearts.
Words matter, but they are not truly given weight until they are fueled by faith. Faith is made evident by our actions. When the two align, our life becomes a reflection of our Redeemer. May His light shine through us, before all.
is not about talk;
it is how we live,
how we walk the walk.
For by His power,
words turn to being;
our actions align,
His grace is freeing.
He fuels forgiveness,
grants mercy and grace;
empowers, equips,
helps us run our race.
We must keep moving,
with trust to pursue;
listen and follow,
what He asks, we do.
Dear Heavenly Father, thank You that more than just words matter to You. Thank You that our actions and words are meant to align. Thank You that without You, this is an impossible task, but with You, all things are possible. Thank You that You fuel our faith and equip us to live the lives to which we are called. Forgive us for our fears and doubts, and help us to trust completely in You. Thank You that You are faithful, even when our faith is fickle. Teach us how to "Preach the gospel always, and when necessary, use words." (St. Francis Assisi) Let our very lives speak volumes for You, as we honor You in everything. May many come to know You as their Savior and King as we love like You love us. Be exalted, Lord God. Amen.

Your righteousness reaches to the skies, O God, You have done great things.
Who, O God, is like You? – Psalm 71:19
Psalm 23
The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not be in want.
He makes me lie down in green pastures,
He leads me beside quiet waters,
He restores my soul.
He guides me in paths of righteousness
for His name's sake.
Even though I walk
through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil,
for You are with me;
Your rod and Your staff,
they comfort me.
You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil;
my cup overflows.
Surely goodness and love will follow me
all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the Lord
forever. – Psalm 23
WIth Him, I lack nothing.
He provides me place to rest,
and grants refreshment unto my soul.
He leads me and guides me
in the ways in which I am meant to go.
Even when things are frightening,
or death is knocking at my door.
I need not fear, for He is with me.
The Lord is my Protector and Comforter.
He prepares abundant provisions for me,
right in front of my enemies,
and claims me as His own,
pouring out His blessings upon me.
Your goodness and love will remain with me,
every day of my life,
and I hold fast to the promise
of my future forever with You in heaven.
The 23rd Psalm is a source of much comfort to many. It is a reminder of God's presence, provision, and power. He is good, and is available to pour out His blessings upon those who faithfully seek Him. The Lord is worthy of our trust, and His love is unfailing. There has never been, nor shall ever be a mere man, to whom we can compare His capacity to love us, individually. May this day, afford you the opportunity to take some time to simply soak in the reality of His remarkable redemption, granted by His glorious grace, just for you.
Provider of all;
You grant me rest,
catch me when I fall.
Lead me to peace,
to quiet my soul;
so I may hear,
Your heart that makes whole.
Show me the way,
unto righteousness;
despite shadows,
remove fearfulness.
Help me to trust,
You as Protector;
may my heart see,
all foes bow before.
You prepare much,
foes see that I'm blessed;
You call me Yours,
clothed in righteousness.
Goodness and love,
for my whole life long;
my hope secure,
my Strength and my Song.
Dear Heavenly Father, Thank You that Your love is unfailing, and that You provide, protect and persist in Your pursuit of our whole heart. Thank You for the bountiful blessings that You pour out upon us, and for the promise we may hold when we give our heart to You. Forgive us for our fearfulness and lack of trust, and help us to seek You in all things. May Your grace and mercy be evident in every area of our lives, and may we extend the same to all whom we encounter. Let Your love be evident in us. Lead those who are looking unto Your loving embrace. Be glorified, our great and mighty King. Amen.

Mini-Meals to Avoid Morning Sickness
I am eight weeks pregnant and having morning sickness all day long. I've lost my appetite and need some suggestions and how to eat smaller meals. Also, is it dangerous to eat only foods that I can tolerate and pass on the foods like green, leafy vegetables that are recommended during pregnancy?Question:

This can be very upsetting and stressful in early pregnancy but, fortunately, nausea of pregnancy is self-limiting, usually a problem only during the first trimester (until the time of the fourth missed period). However, if it extends well into the second trimester, if you are unable to hold food down at all or if you are losing weight, you should be evaluated. There are some rare complications of pregnancy which may cause severe nausea and vomiting.
Despite the fact that intermittent vomiting is a problem for the mother, most babies do well if you can hold down fluids and easily digestible foods. During your prenatal visit, you should be checked for ketones in the urine. Ketones are byproducts of fat metabolism (when the body burns fat because there are no available carbohydrates), and have been known to be toxic to developing babies. Some women must be hospitalized for a few days for IV fluid administration to get their electrolytes back to normal. Some medications can help as well.
Folate deficiency has been implicated in extreme nausea. Be sure you are getting at least one milligram of folic acid per day. If you are taking a prenatal vitamin supplement, this has folic acid in it, but could also be contributing to the nausea. The iron in vitamin supplements also could be a problem. It is better to take the folic acid separately until the nausea subsides.
If we know that this is the normal nausea of pregnancy, here are some tips:
- Small, frequent meals, every two hours (even through the night, if you can do that).
- Dry crackers; graham crackers are nice, before arising
- Eat a high-carbohydrate diet: dry toast, honey, banana, baked potato, muesli and other whole-grain breakfast cereals, steamed rice, tofu
- Sweet juices or flat soda in the morning
- Avoid strong smells, fatty foods, spicy foods; some women cannot tolerate milk, eggs or meat
- There is some anecdotal evidence of acupressure to the wrists helping nausea
- Vitamin B6, 50 milligrams by mouth twice a day.
- Do not use alcohol or tobacco, and limit coffee during the first trimester
- Peppermint tea
- Ginger tea; boil ginger root in water and strain and serve with honey
- Candied ginger may also help.
- Lots of love and support and less stress!
Books I recommend include: "Nutrition for your pregnancy" by J. Brown, (1983, out of print, but excellent) and "Your Baby, Your Way" by Sheila Kitzinger (1987, also out of print). Hope this helps.
See a dietician if you are very concerned. They are great resources for how to get the most from a little food.
It is perfectly okay to eat just foods you tolerate rather than forcing down foods that might increase the nausea.
I hope this helps and best of luck.Answer:

If only they had listened … (2)
31 October 2013
In 2005, the European Parliament evaluated the Commission's draft proposal for a Nutrition and Health Claims Regulation. Here's the second part of an anthology of the parliament's wise observations. While the first part was taken from the Opinion of the Committee on Industry, Research and Energy [1], this second part is taken from the Opinion of the Committee on the Internal Market and Consumer Protection [2]. The quotes speak for themselves and in view of the enormous problems created by the Regulation, they proved to be one hundred percent correct.
"Nutritional Profiling – The Commission's proposal seeks to limit nutrition and health claims to foods that are "good for you". The draftsman does not believe that it should be the role of government – whether local, national or European – to take decisions as to which foods are good for consumers.
If different people have different dietary needs – depending on factors such as lifestyle, age, gender – can we really talk about good foods and bad foods, rather than good diets and bad diets?
Why should it be acceptable for a low-fat cheese to claim to be high in calcium but not for a high-fat cheese that may contain as much or more calcium?
Whilst we don't want to see alcopops marketed as being good for you, is there any sense in preventing red wine producers from claiming that moderate quantities of red wine can be good for your heart?
The draftsman believes that a ban on all general and implied health claims would be a disproportionate measure. Where claims are supported by scientific knowledge and do not mislead consumers, the subject and scope of the claim should not be a matter for legislation. Existing legislation on misleading advertising and on food labelling already prohibits the use of untrue of misleading claims. The draftsman believes that it would be preferable to enforce such existing legislation more consistently and more effectively rather than introduce more legislation unlikely to be enforced any better.
Scientific substantiation should aim at due justification of the nutrition and health claim and the claimed beneficial effect, however, it should not be disproportionate to achieve this aim, i.e., the level of proof should be 'on the balance of probabilities' and not 'beyond reasonable doubt'.
'Long-established and non-controversial science' must be judged by independent scientists. Therefore the involvement of the Authority is necessary.
According to Article 10(1) health claims may only be used if they have been authorised pursuant to the provisions of the regulation. However, this authorisation procedure goes too far, since it also covers recognised and scientifically proven claims which do not mislead consumers. Moreover, the authorisation procedure envisaged is bureaucratic, impractical and, especially in the light of the Lisbon strategy, unacceptable. Food business operators should have the right to continue using health claims that have been notified even if they are not included in the list provided for in Article 12."
If only they had listened.

There may now be hard science behind the notion that true love can last a lifetime.
A neurological study from Stony Brook University revealed that couples who experience "romantic love" long-term keep their brains firing in similar ways to couples who have just fallen in love.
The research team, led by Bianca P. Acevedo and Arthur Aron, found that the "dopamine-rich brain regions associated with reward, motivation and 'wanting'" were activated in similar ways in couples newly in love and those who experienced "romantic love" over the course of many years. They defined "romantic love" as characterized by "intensity, engagement and sexual interest." This type of love was associated with marital satisfaction, well-being, high self-esteem, and relationship longevity.
What does it all mean?
It means that couples who maintain "intensity, engagement and sexual interest" without that extra layer of anxiety associated with "obsessive love" can, in fact, sustain the sparkly, cloud-nine, butterflies-in-your-stomach feeling of being in love. This optimistic conclusion led Acevedo to state: "Couples should strive for love with all the trimmings… Couples who've been together a long time and wish to get back their romantic edge should know it is an attainable goal that, like most good things in life, requires energy and devotion."

Hi All,
I would like to hear from other schools using Terminal Services Variants (Citrix/RDS/ETC.) to run the SIMS client for teacher access (either onsite or remote access).
Whats your setup?
How many servers do you run on?
What RAM do you have in your servers What RAM per user do you work on?
Do you use RemoteAPP?
This will help us understand how other schools work to ensure our school is using something similar. Presently we are running 3x Remote Desktop Services Servers but struggle with performance we know we need more RAM and move onto dedicated boxes. But as always we must present a case for extra funding!
Your feedback is appreciated
SIMS From Home running on a TS, setup help needed.
SIMS Terminal Sevices - Some advice please?
SIMS via TS RemoteApp in server 2008R2

Finding ETFs That Benefit From U.S. Dollar Woes
NEW YORK ( ETF Expert) -- The U.S. dollar has certainly lost value since the Federal Reserve began printing greenbacks to purchase U.S. bonds.
On the other hand, most of the damage occurred at the onset of the Fed's quantitative easing program(s). Since the euro came under extreme pressure during the sovereign debt crisis of 2011, and since Japan's campaign to radically devalue its currency (yen) in 2012, PowerShares DB Dollar Bullish (UUP) has been remarkably stable.
On the other hand, current market participants have sniffed out a highly probable outcome over the next six months. Specifically, the idea of the Fed slowing down its bond purchases (a.k.a. tapering) is preposterous.In my July 30 feature, Bond ETFs Could Shock Pundits in the Months Ahead, I expressed serious doubts that the Bernanke-led Fed would begin tapering in 2013. I wrote: Who genuinely believes that unemployment is falling at a rapid enough clip to warrant a change in direction? Who actually sees the Fed's inflation measure rising at a fast enough pace to justify a policy modification? Last but not least, why would Bernanke want to rock the apple cart in any shape or form prior to his January departure? Most experts believed that I was way off base. In particular, my suggestion that the 10-year yield would likely be closer to a 2% to 2.25% range than a 2.75% to 3% range by year's end seemed like a long shot. Equally controversial, I advocated that taxable account owners revisit municipal bond opportunities like iShares National Muni (MUB). Today, however, a few more folks may be coming around to my way of thinking. The number of new jobs have been steadily dropping for months. The budget debate is only getting started. If Janet Yellen replaces Bernanke, the Fed may even try to print more money to buy bonds rather than pull away from the project. The 10-year yield is declining... Courtesy of StockCharts.com ...the U.S. dollar via UUP is testing 2011 lows... Courtesy of StockCharts.com ...and the prospects for munis in the intermediate term appear to be brightening. Courtesy of StockCharts.com I am not suggesting that investors abandon the stock ship for the supposed safer shores of fixed income. In actuality, the electronic printing of dollars to buy bonds is benefiting stocks and commodities as well. In particular, the economies of China and Europe may be recovering with less overt currency devaluation or obvious rate manipulation. It follows that funds like iShares Australia (EWA) may benefit from greater internal demand on the mainland. Additionally, broader-based international assets like Vanguard All World excl U.S. (VEU) and iShares MSCI EAFE Small Cap (SCZ) may figure prominently in any year-end running of the bulls.

An essay by guest-blogger Robert Davidson, author of The Farther Shore: Stories.
I've just had what Whitman called the "Genesis moment": that mad burst of inspiration that begins the writing of a new story-in this case, the sight and sound of that airplane in the sky. I write very quickly, getting it all down in a thrilling rush. I've written enough stories to know what's happening. This is the "honeymoon phase," and it lasts only as long as it takes me to write that first, messy draft. For now, anything seems possible in the story. There's great fun in kicking over a bucket of mop water and seeing where the spill takes you.

Spackling paste
Spackling paste is a putty used to fill holes, small cracks, and other minor surface defects in wood, drywall, and plaster. Typically, spackling is composed of gypsum plaster from hydrated calcium sulfate, and glue.
Spackle is a registered trademark of the Muralo Company, located in Bayonne, New Jersey. Muralo's product is dry powder, to be mixed with water by the user to form putty or paste. It was brought to market in 1927, then patented and trademarked in 1928. The term "spackle" has since become a genericized trademark applied in the United States to a variety of household hole-filling products. The first written appearance of the generic use of the word "spackle" was around 1940.[1] The product name was likely derived from the German word spachtel, meaning "putty knife" or "filler". Other possible derivations include shpaklevat (Russian; to fill holes with putty or caulk), szpachla (Polish; spatula or putty knife) and spaklieven (Yiddish; to fill in small holes in plaster.), all of which are likely derived from German.
In the US this product is sometimes referred to as spackling compound.
In the UK the generic name for this product is 'wall filler' with 'Polyfilla' being a popular brand name (the use of the prefix 'poly-' is intended to imply that it can be used on many different types of surface). It differs from spackle in being cellulose based. The manufacturers claim that it has an advantage over spackle in that it doesn't shrink or crack.[2][3]

Love the personalization!
Fall Treasures Pocket Invitations My favorite feature is creating a color palette. We liked a few different invites and were able to customize them all with our colors (and tweak, if needed). Did I mention that samples come in your own colors?! Really, that sealed the deal for us. Seeing the samples in our own colors made it much easier to make a selection and we are SO happy with our invites!
Beautiful, easy invites!
Something Blue Foldover Pockets These invites are beautiful and so easy! The customization turned out exactly as I'd hoped. Replaced the white on the front and the light blue on the inside with Navy blue. Switched the lace pattern to champagne and ivory and made the small light blue stripe on the front ivory. All the beauty of a pocket invite without the hours of assembly. The paper was high quality and we have received a ton of compliments on how nice they are.
Great customer service, fast shipping

text: I still am free to spend my money how and where I see fit. Costco is not now and will never be on my list of where I choose to spend my money. Only a zoo needs to buy 6- gallon jars of peanutbutter at a time. IMHO shopping there just encourages people to over eat. As their bottom-line tightens they'll begin to feel safer with lawful gun toters, if not they'll join the ranks of other supermarket chains who went belly-up!
