|English Standard Version (ESV)
|New International Version (NIV)
|1 Therefore, while the promise of entering his rest still stands, let us fear lest any of you should seem to have failed to reach it.
|1 Therefore, since the promise of entering his rest still stands, let us be careful that none of you be found to have fallen short of it.
|2 For good news came to us just as to them, but the message they heard did not benefit them, because they were not united by faith with those who listened.
|2 For we also have had the gospel preached to us, just as they did; but the message they heard was of no value to them, because those who heard did not combine it with faith.
|3 For we who have believed enter that rest, as he has said, "As I swore in my wrath, 'They shall not enter my rest,'"although his works were finished from the foundation of the world.
|3 Now we who have believed enter that rest, just as God has said, "So I declared on oath in my anger, 'They shall never enter my rest.' " And yet his work has been finished since the creation of the world.
|4 For he has somewhere spoken of the seventh day in this way: "And God rested on the seventh day from all his works."
|4 For somewhere he has spoken about the seventh day in these words: "And on the seventh day God rested from all his work."
|5 And again in this passage he said, "They shall not enter my rest."
|5 And again in the passage above he says, "They shall never enter my rest."
|6 Since therefore it remains for some to enter it, and those who formerly received the good news failed to enter because of disobedience,
|6 It still remains that some will enter that rest, and those who formerly had the gospel preached to them did not go in, because of their disobedience.
|7 again he appoints a certain day, "Today," saying through David so long afterward, in the words already quoted, "Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts."
|7 Therefore God again set a certain day, calling it Today, when a long time later he spoke through David, as was said before: "Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts."
|8 For if Joshua had given them rest, God would not have spoken of another day later on.
|8 For if Joshua had given them rest, God would not have spoken later about another day.
|9 So then, there remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God,
|9 There remains, then, a Sabbath-rest for the people of God;
|10 for whoever has entered God's rest has also rested from his works as God did from his.
|10 for anyone who enters God's rest also rests from his own work, just as God did from his.
|11 Let us therefore strive to enter that rest, so that no one may fall by the same sort of disobedience.
|11 Let us, therefore, make every effort to enter that rest, so that no one will fall by following their example of disobedience.
|12 For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart.
|12 For the word of God is living and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.
|13 And no creature is hidden from his sight, but all are naked and exposed to the eyes of him to whom we must give account.
|13 Nothing in all creation is hidden from God's sight. Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of him to whom we must give account.
|14 Since then we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession.
|14 Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has gone through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold firmly to the faith we profess.
|15 For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin.
|15 For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are--yet was without sin.
|16 Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.
|16 Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.

Fraunhofer Institute pulls off best 3D demo ever
Every big electronics company is pushing 3D hard, especially here at Japan's CEATEC show, but it was Germany's Fraunhofer Institute who had by far the best demo of 3D tech. Not only does the Free2C kiosk let you see objects in 3D without glasses, but it adds the capability for gesture control, letting you rotate an image just by moving your finger.
Fraunhofer's trick has limitations: The images are static, and only one user can view the image in 3D at a time. That's because the system involves a camera that detects where the viewers eyes are and computes how the image parts should be nested to create the 3D effect. Trying out the display, I found the 3D effect very convincing, with images of a helicopter and a watch appearing as if I could touch them. When I tried, the image responded to my hand movements, moving up, down and around according to my finger. It was all very Minority Report.
Museum exhibits would be a natural application of the technology, and Fraunhofer's literature even suggests it could be useful in "minimal invasive surgery." Uh, right. In any case, the demo left us suitably impressed, until I remembered I wasn't wearing 3D glasses. Then I was blown away.

Just wish full thinking on my part that we could scoop them panicking...? As good as they are, they could get caught with their pants down; their formula breaks down with leadership. After how many years as a very good team, they must be wondering what it's going to take?
Is there a Ray Bourque out there? That might be the real race...
No way can we make a team as good as San Jose better.

Because it's not just a store where you can stock up on necessities like Rag & Bone coats, Band of Outsiders shirts, RRL denim, and Esquivel shoes. It's a tribute to 1940s Americana, with converted telephone-booth dressing rooms and a "Tea Room" for private fittings. The environment defines the clothes, and vice versa, which is as close to retail perfection as you can expect.

The number of children found living, working and begging on Pakistan's streets has been growing despite efforts to provide basic education and aid.
An estimated 1.5 million children live on the streets of Pakistan, according to various numbers from government surveys and private organisations.
Rana Asif, who launched the NGO, Initiator, a decade ago to tackle this problem, said that inflation and refugee migration were the main contributing factors.
According to Initiator's recent survey, 66 percent of street children are runaways who were forced to leave their homes after experiencing violence in household, workplace and educational institutions.
But the runaway children appear to be more vulnerable to abuse than before. The issue was highlighted in December 1999, when serial killer Javed Iqbal sent a letter to a newspaper confessing to the murders of 100 street children in the city of Lahore.
Iqbal committed suicide in prison before he was due to be hanged in front of the parents of the children he had murdered and sexually abused.
There are people such as Asif who want to help, but many others gain financially by keeping the children on the streets.
Asif told Al Jazeera that in cities such as Karachi, mafia exploit the street children by forcing them into begging and stealing.
"We provide some education, training and Eid gifts for these street children but as the mafia sees them stepping away from begging and stealing, the children are swiftly transported to other parts of the country. Some are even smuggled abroad, mostly to Iran," Asif said.
Follow Faras Ghani on Twitter: @farasG
About 25,000 children daily defy the weather and physical restraints and wander on Karachi's roads to sell tissue papers, clean windscreens or just knock on car windows begging.
Street children are vulnerable to sexual abuse on a daily basis.�More than 90 percent have been sexually assaulted and the biggest culprits are police officials, according to Asif.
Only eight�percent of children living on the streets in Pakistan are female. Most of them are picked up when they arrive on the streets and then sold off into prostitution for about Rs 25,000 each ($250).
Apart from a huge number of Afghan migrants, about 45 percent of street children in Pakistan are Myanmarese and Bengalis, with those communities having 58 settlements in Karachi alone.
Shrines, where these children visit regularly to fill up their stomachs, are the most popular places for the mafia to recruit them. These locations also act as hotspots for children to acquire�cheap drugs and heroin, costing around 20 cents ($0.20).
The hustle-bustle of the�city life enticed Ali to leave his village home. The video game shops, the sight of "better"�food, the availability of cheap drugs and glue-sniffing, made him forget his "plain and stagnant"�life at home.
There is no law against internal trafficking in Pakistan, Asif said, as children from the north often end up in Pakistan�s metropolises.
Despite the hardship, children working and earning a livelihood are content with life. "I�ve learnt how to work and I�m glad I don�t have to resort to begging on the streets or steal copper wire or side-view mirrors,"�said Asfand.
About 25,000 children daily defy the weather and physical restraints and wander on Karachi(***)s roads to sell tissue papers, clean windscreens or just knock on car windows begging.

The Ziggens are an American Neoclassical Punk Zydeco Rockabilly band from Orange County, California. Their band members all use the stage surname "Ziggen" as an apparent homage to The Ramones (although their lead singer is better known by his real name, Bert Susanka). Though they have been active since 1990, The Ziggens are unfortunately fairly unknown in the music industry. They have, however, been namechecked, covered, and sampled by the much more famous Southern California band Sublime in the songs "Greatest Hits," "Big Salty Tears," (and "Tim the Dinosaur"), and "Smoke Two Joints," respectively. The Ziggens later returned the favor by covering Sublime's token Surf Rock song, "Paddle Out."Discography:

Consider all the homages: Not one, but two rappers have named themselves after Montana (Scarface of the Geto Boys and Tony Yayo of G-Unit), and Nas borrowed Montana's slogan for his breakout hit, "The World Is Yours."
Indeed, the plot of the 1983 remake of Scarface practically wrote the script for modern rap. Played by Al Pacino, Montana starts as a Cuban refugee fed up with washing dishes and enjoys a rapid rise to the pinnacle of Miami's underworld, thanks to his hustle, braggadocio, and affinity for large-caliber firearms.
Platform: PS2, Xbox, PSP, PC
Price: $40-$50
ESRB Rating: M (for Mature)
Score: 8.5 (out of 10)
Then it all comes crashing down. Montana refuses to kill the wife and kids of an adversary of Bolivian drug lord Alejandro Sosa, earning the kingpin's wrath. Sosa sends an army of hit men to storm Montana's mansion. Montana falls under a hail of bullets.
But what if Tony had survived? What if, like 50 Cent, he had somehow managed to escape certain death? This is the premise of Scarface: The World Is Yours.
The game begins where the movie ended: Montana, on the second floor of his ornate mansion, tells his would-be assassins, "Say hello to my little friend." But in this version, Montana escapes and goes on the lam. Now he must rebuild his empire and take revenge on Sosa.
This isn't easy. Playing as Montana, you start off penniless in Little Havana. You'll slowly accrue cash by taking out local gangs, hitting up coke dealers, and "protecting" store owners.
Completing missions earns you lucre and reputation points, which bump you up in status and provide an array of flashy vehicles and weapons. You can also buy gaudy home furnishings for your reclaimed mansion. Try decorating your office with a stuffed tiger, an astronaut suit, and your dead sister's ashes. All class, baby.
As you advance through the game, you'll unlock some mysterious Caribbean islands to the south. Here you can purchase white gold by the kilo. You'll need a speedboat to zip the contraband back to the mainland, dodging pirates and the coast guard along the way.
At first glance, Scarface may look like a Grand Theft Auto clone, especially since Vice City's setting was essentially 1980s Miami. But Scarface offers a compelling story line all its own, written by David McKenna (Blow, American History X). The game wisely borrows elements from some of the movie's best scenes, such as the freaky nightclub clown and the gruesome chainsaw butchery, but also offers fresh material, such as the opportunity to storm an ocean tanker via helicopter.
And in some ways, Scarface improves on GTA. In combat, a nifty targeting system allows you aim for specific body parts. You can lock onto arms, torsos, and yes, left and right testicles. If you talk enough trash while killing, you'll fill a "balls" meter that lets you activate a 30-second "blind rage" mode that makes Tony invincible while he spews an astounding litany of epithets.
Although Al Pacino didn't return to voice Montana, André Sogliuzzo does a spot-on imitation. Some of Tony's lines, delivered in his gravelly Cuban accent, are instant classics: "I want to see those ham hocks bounce!"
As morally murky as all this seems, it's also damn fun. Gram by gram, bullet by bullet, you get what's yours: the world, Chico, and everything in it.

"I guess dat mean you plannin' on staying wid us a while... Now what dat car do to you? You find dat car in bed with you woman? You fine da clues? Oil drippin's on you bedsheet? Maybe you killed da wrong car, mon. Look at him, dead and bleedin' in da ocean over dere.

Jo Jo, maybe dis man done drove dis car all the way down here, to de End of de World, and killed his car, so he can never go home again..."Magical Realism has a dodgy history on American television, with more shows claiming to be part of the genre than successfully using it for anything more than the occasional flakiness. Key West was a successful, serious attempt to embrace this chimeric genre, an accomplishment all the more impressive in light of the fact that it managed a consistent strong showing in only 13 episodes in 1993 on FOX. It was well written, intelligent, slightly surreal with engaging characters.Naturally, with all that going for it, the show never had a chance.The setup was that Seamus O'Neill was a factory worker who won the lottery and decided to engage his inner Hemingway and move to Key West to become a writer. However Key West, as the name implies, was as much about the place and its magical atmosphere as it was the characters inhabiting it. Like a lot of Latin American Magical Realism which takes cues from Gabriel Garc�a M�rquez's One Hundred Years of Solitude, the place has a sense of existing in its own time as well as space, as seen in the ambiguity of its Arc Words: "The end of the world".Episodes in which the magical realism is most visually apparent are "The Second Day in Heaven", "The Great Unknown", "Act of God", "Crossroads" and "The System", although virtually every episode in some way embraced the dismantling of everyday reality.Its large ensemble cast — headed up by Fisher Stevens, Jennifer Tilly, Leland Crooke, Denise Crosby and Brian Thompson — was remarkable for its consistency and earnestness (Thompson and Tilly in particular).
— Jo Jo Nabouli, after witnessing Seamus O'Neill drive his car into the surf, then execute it with a .44 magnum, in the opening minutes of the Pilot Episode

Serena Williams
Serena Williams cruised to victory at the U.S. Open women's final Sunday, defeating Caroline Wozniacki in straight sets, 6-3, 6-3.
The No. 1 player in the world didn't drop a set over the entire two weeks of the tournament and never lost more than three games in a single set.
Rainn Wilson, Jason Biggs
Celebrity sightings are fairly common at the U.S. Open tennis tournament, but on Thursday night, they'll be on the court rather than in the audience.
Jason Biggs and Rainn Wilson are teaming up for a "battle of the sexes" against former champions Chris Evert and Monica Seles Thursday night in Arthur Ashe Stadium.

When Elisabeth Shue joined CSI last year, she had one request."[Producers] asked me if there were any ideas I had or anything I'd like to do that would be fun, and I said, 'We should do a murder at a tennis tournament and we'll get professional players to come on.' I was half-joking, but I did really want to do it and I didn't necessarily think they would do it," Shue, a diehard tennis (and Roger Federer) fan and avid player, tells TVGuide.com. "Cut to the beginning of this season and they say, 'Oh, that tennis episode is really coming along.' 'What?!' I was just shocked, but so, so excited."Winter TV: Get the scoop on your favorite returning showsWednesday's CSI (10/9c, CBS) — which just so happens to air during the Australian Open — will see Shue's "dream episode" become a reality.

Chris Evert on CSI
Elisabeth Shue wowed me when I visited the CSI set to watch her character, Julie Finlay, interrogate Chris Evert, who plays herself in the January 23 episode. Shue held her own in an on-the-court rally with the tennis legend. But it was the actress' behind-the-scenes interrogation of Evert that really impressed.

What can you tell us about that? — AngelaADAM: Michael Dorn will indeed reprise his role as Dr. Burke during February sweeps. But what brings Beckett back to his couch? Well, it's not because of any problems with Castle. Instead, it will be another run-in with Sen. Bracken (guest star Jack Coleman) that sends Beckett back to therapy. "A murder seems to lead to his doorstep and Kate thinks this her opportunity to finally get the man who was responsible for her mother's murder behind bars," creator Andrew W. Marlowe, adding that Beckett may once again find herself out of control. "Nothing is as it seems," he says.

Retired tennis pros Chris Evert and Lindsay Davenport will guest-star on an episode of CSI in January, CBS announced Monday.
The former champions will play themselves on an episode in which the team investigates the death of a female professional tennis player, according to the network. Tennis commentator and CBS This Morning contributor Justin Gimelstob will also appear as himself.
Rafael Nadal, Serena Williams
Fresh off equaling Bjorn Borg's six French Open titles, Rafael Nadal could match another of the Swede's impressive feats: winning on the French clay and Wimbledon grass back-to-back for the third time. "It's the toughest turnaround in tennis," says NBC analyst Mary Carillo, "but Nadal is something very special indeed." Borg did it from 1978-80, and the Spaniard took home both trophies in 2008 and last year...

My copy of the little book arrived today along with a very amusing tote bag from Interweave. What a hoot! Wish I could have been in Rhinebeck to get your autograph. I can't wait to share this with my friends. It was a lovely interlude before I had to go to my evening class that had absolutely nothing to do with knitting.

the chances are we will never meet, since I am here in the middle of Cheshire, England and you are there, so to speak. But I needed to tell you that I went to my local LYS yesterday (In Mrs Gaskell's Knutsford) for their Tuesday lunctime Knit Group. Now I seldom get to there (I'm a teacher) so usually just go to Thursday evenings. As a result, I suspect the Tuesday lunchtime group is a little more genteel. I'm afraid to say I picked up the copy of It Itches that was on the table and promptly disturbed the entire ambience by snorting at virtually every cartoon I saw. It is a delight! Thank you so much! Your book is an absolutely joy and I hope you can hear me laughing all the way across the pond.

Microsoft Plugs Visual Studio Resources
In an event that featured news announcements and even a birthday cake for hundreds of attendees, S. Soma Somasegar, corporate vice president of the developer division at Microsoft, covered .Net momentum, progress with the Visual Studio Team System, and Microsofts focus on smart clients.
Somasegar described smart clients as client technology that takes the best elements of the Web-client world and the rich-client world and combines them to enable a better user experience.
To read an interview with Somasegar, click here.
Somasegar also said Microsofts developer division will focus on four primary goals: bringing transparency, enabling a vibrant community, fostering a rich partner ecosystem, and collecting and taking advantage of customer feedback.
Regarding news, Somasegar announced that Microsoft has made available two new resources for enterprise developers: the Patterns and Practices Enterprise Library, which includes application blocks for enterprise projects; and the Connected Systems Business Kit, which is a collection of sample applications, presentations, white papers and videos to help developers build enterprise applications.
Somasegar also said that with Visual Studio 2005 and ASP.Net 2.0, "Weve invested heavily to make development easier than ever before." He said that on average, developers will have to write 70 percent less code with Visual Studio 2005 as opposed to other tools (including previous versions of Visual Studio).

Meanwhile, Microsoft announced that the second CTP (community technology preview) for the presentation subsystem for the upcoming Longhorn version of Windows, code-named Avalon, will be released next month. The new CTP will feature new controls, improvements to the layout system, enhancements to the XAML (Extensible Application Markup Language) and performance enhancements, the company said.
Microsoft also announced enhancements to the Tablet PC SDK (software development kit) to enable the creation of interactive, ink-based applications for the Tablet PC. Microsoft announced a new Tablet PC Game SDK. And Agilix Labs Inc., based in Orem, Utah, announced the availability of Agilix InfiNotes, an ink note-taking control for the .Net Framework.
Somasegar noted that three years ago, when Microsoft chairman and chief software architect Bill Gates announced the availability of Visual Studio .Net and the .Net Framework, there were about 300 .Net-related developer jobs on the Monster.com Web site. Today, there are more than 10,000, he said.
In addition, he noted that according to a Forrester Research Inc. study from mid-2004, 56 percent of enterprise developers surveyed cited .Net as the platform they would use for the majority of their development work versus 44 percent for J2EE (Java 2 Enterprise Edition).
Also, Somasegar said Microsoft has 225 VSIPs (Visual Studio Integration Partners) delivering more than 400 applications on top of the .Net Framework and Visual Studio.

Resident Evil: Damnation is the second full-length CGI film for the Resident Evil franchise, following 2008's Degeneration. Unlike the live-action films, Damnation is firmly set within the games' continuity, and serves as a bridge between Resident Evil 5 and Resident Evil 6.A civil war is raging in the fictional Eastern Slav Republic, between the oligarchy that's seized control of the country and the freedom fighters that represent the lower class. The military sat out the war and grew powerful, and after a cease-fire was declared, the military broke it in order to seize natural resources discovered in the freedom fighters' territory. In an attempt to even the odds, the freedom fighters have begun using black-market bioweapons.The U.S. government sends in Leon S. Kennedy to investigate, as both the U.S. and Russia are planning to intervene in the war. After entering the field, Leon is ordered to pull right back out, but after seeing the destruction the B.O.W.s are causing, he goes rogue in an effort to stop them.Damnation was released on DVD and Blu-ray in late September 2012, with a cinematic release in Shinjuku at the end of October. It was leaked a couple of weeks early on streaming video networks like the Xbox Live Marketplace, presumably in an attempt to capitalize on the release of Resident Evil: Retribution.
Resident Evil: Damnation provides examples of the following tropes:

About China Jw Marriott Hotels
The Marriott International has come a long way from being a beer station sometime in the 1920s to a full-fledged hotel in Arlington, Virginia. It's been managed by the founders' son until he retired and became its executive chairman. Nevertheless, the brand continues to grow, expanding less-served countries such as those in Asia. The Marriott is also the owner, operator, and/or franchisor of some of the biggest hotel chains in the world such as Autographs Collection, Edition, Bulgari Hotels and Resorts, Renaissance, Marriott, and Ritz-Carlton. It also offers a wealthy brand for first-class travelers called JW Marriott. What sets it apart from other five-star hotels is its understated elegance and beauty. This allows them to offer plenty of spaces and natural light, as well as give more attention to customer service. JW Marriott is also found in China, primarily in Shanghai, Beijing, Chongqing, and Hangzhou. It is also present in Hong Kong. In the next few years, as the brand continues to expand in the continent, more of JW Marriott will be seen in the country. There are plenty of things to love about JW Marriott. It provides a wide range of food services for different sensitive palates. Though it always infuses Chinese culture and heritage by using local ingredients, it also broadens the culinary choices to include European and American. Most of the JW Marriott hotels are crawling skyscrapers. Shanghai Tomorrow Square stands at more than 55 stories in Puxi. This then provides all the guests with captivating views of attractions within the area. The rooms, on the other hand, are airy and spacious. The standard ones measure around 42 square meters. Connecting rooms are possible in some of the units. The Executive Lounge located in certain floors gives complimentary services and amenities to special guests. These include business services, early check-in and late checkout, and beverages.

IBM pushes state to keep layoffs confidentialJuly 16,2013Staff Report
MONTPELIER - IBM wants to keep confidential the number of employees recently laid off at its Essex Junction facility.
IBM Monday complied with a state law requiring the company to provide the state with the names and other details of employees who were laid off last month.
However, according to the Department of Labor, "IBM asserts that all of the information provided, including the total number of affected employees, is highly sensitive and confidential commercial information."
IBM goes on to state that making public the information will cause competitive harm and damage individual employees.
The company cites Vermont's Public Record Act that exempts trade secret and competitive business information.
"While the department agrees that any information that could be used to identify individuals is exempt from disclosure, the department is not convinced that the total number of affected employees, as reflected in the notice, must be withheld from the public under Vermont law," the department said in a press release.
The department noted that it had received media requests for the total number of layoffs at the Vermont facility.
The state advised IBM to provide "any legal justification or other information to support its claimed confidentiality" and to file that information by noon on Thursday.
IBM was once the state's largest private employer with another round of layoffs, IBM has fallen to second place behind Fletcher Allen Health Care with 5,500 fulltime employees.MORE IN This Just InKillington reviews Full StoryPrivacy question Full StorySchool Board sets Full Story

Living in a Colonial-Era Cottage in Connecticut
There's old, and then there's old. At their 18th-century Connecticut home, Julie and Tom Murphy embraced imperfect original detailsand a spare decorating approach to enhance them.
By Miranda Silva
Ellis's Room
Friends refer to the Murphys' place as "the tavern." The home's cozy feel has something to do with it. So do the couple's raucous get-togethers. Their wintertime lumberjack party (guests are required to wear plaid) is a growing legend. Then there's the event Julie jokes about hosting: "Tom and I always say we're going to dress ourselves and the kids up in Revolutionary-era garb, and maybe even charge admission. Field trip to the Murphy house!"
In this photo: Ellis picked out John Derian's Jolly Roger pennant for his room. The American flag once flew over the U.S. Capitol building.

Still deciding when the next one will be. In the mean time I feel the need to host a new contest. Once I have all the details I'll be posting about it in a separate journal. Contest theme: FIX MY MARY SUEGoal: I'll be challenging artists to 'fix' my characters Dark Sparx and Rainbow Sparkle. Ya know, make them more intersting.Let's face it, they're both Mary Sues. I use them because they were literally created by my 8 year old cousin in the pony maker. At the time I didn't know much about MLP or the fandom so I just rolled with it. But now that I see the blaring errors in their designs and backstories I think it'd be fun to see what others could do with them. Still deciding on prizes. 1st will probably be 400s plus a sprite of their choice fr

How Nissan Restored A Craptacular Maxima To The Height Of 1996 Luxury
Last year, Luke Aker dropped the mic on funny Craigslist ads with a video for his 1996 Nissan Maxima packed with all the luxury, opulence, decadence and pretension of an early Infiniti commercial. Then Nissan bought it, and restored it — and dropped the mic again. »

Cause of fire in vacant Manchester building under investigation
When the first fire crews arrived, Pelletier said there was a "pretty good volume of fire" and a "big ball of fire coming" out the window in the front.
Flames were extending up both the interior and exterior of the building. Firefighters, in addition to battling the blaze in the dark, had to use extreme caution to avoid holes cut in the second-story floor, according to Pelletier.
The building, designed with four apartments, was built in 1910 and features "balloon construction," meaning there are no fire breaks in the framing which allows flames to get into the walls and run free from the basement to the top peak.
Pelletier said fire crews cut through the roof in the front to get at the hidden flames.
No one was injured.
Fire crews contained the blaze to the building, although the fire's heat melted siding on an apartment building at 303 Hanover St. The fire was under control about 50 minutes after it was first reported, but crews did not clear the scene until about 1:20 a.m.
The building is owned by 305 Hanover LLC, with Doug Jones the contact person, according to Pelletier. Damage is estimated at between $80,000 and $100,000.

We worked with the members of the band Coverflow to create a singing contest that benefitted children's charities, featuring some of the best amateur singers from the tech world, with tech celebrity judges including David Hornick, Dave McClure, Steven Jang and Alison Murdock.
Listen to our round table discussion of the JOBS Act and its implications for both early-stage and late-stage companies. Our panel, including Bill Hambrecht, discuss crowdfunding, the IPO on-ramp, and options for raising capital in this online webinar.
Leverage can be a powerful tool, but optimizing its application requires some calculus of cost versus benefit. Adding term debt or a revolving credit facility can lift a transaction size or working-capital liquidity beyond what precious equity capital can achieve alone. Finding that perfect, simple leverage tool is critical to a company's growth and future success. So, how can a CFO make the best decisions about debt for the business?
