Built for Skiers. The Atomic Skiwear Lookbook 14/15.
This season, those who want real off-piste freedom can choose the innovative Waymaker Carbon 130 freeride ski boot, which features a movable cuff. It makes it even easier to reach the best powderand provides ultra-compact grip for fantastic rides. Freeride pro Sage Cattabriga-Alosa has discovered his new favorite boot in the Waymaker Carbon: "I'm now riding even more radical lines than before. And that's saying something," he says. Once again, Sage's first choice when it comes to big mountain skiing this year is the Automatic, the ski that he and freeride colleague Dana Flahr helped to develop. The Automatic is super-stable yet extremely flexible - perfect for any fast-paced backcountry adventure. Female freeskiers on the other hand can get their hands on the versatile Millennium, the ski freeride pro Michelle Parker uses to go properly crazy. If you prefer tricks and jibs in powder, the latest generation of the Bent Chetler is just the thing for you: Chris Benchetler's extra-wide signature ski gives you huge pop for jumps and, thanks to Chris' new graphics, is a real eye-catcher. infamous: Jossi Wells' favorite shredder With the infamous, pipe & park professional Jossi Wells has fulfilled a dream. Together with our designers he has created a ski that turns so easily, lands so softly and is so stable - even on rails - that it will convince you 100% too. This much style just has to be shared. Jossi has therefore rounded up some of the world's most talented young riders in order to rock the parks of this planet with them as the infamous squad. From the X Games to the Olympic Games If you need maximum performance between kicker and rail, reach for the Punx, the ski that catapulted Elias Ambühl, Gus Kenworthy and Andreas Håtveit onto the X Games podium. And as only the correct ski boot makes a soft landing perfect, the three skiers rely on the super-cushioned Overload, which features a completely revised freestyle boot design. Using this equipment, the guys are now preparing themselves for another highly sought-after podium place: the first Olympic medals for slopestyle will be awarded at Sochi in 2014.

The live announcement came from Jackson at 2 p.m. and was viewable online through an IHL webcast.
LaForge, a Cleveland native and 1972 DSU graduate, will visit campus Thursday to meet with faculty and staff, students, alumni and community members.
The announcement is not an official appointment, but rather, recognition that LaForge is the leading contender to replace Dr. John Hilpert, DSU's seventh president, who announced he would retire on Dec. 31, 2012.
LaForge will take part in a series of group interviews that will provide participants the opportunity to express feedback to the board search committee.
Afterwards, the board will either name LaForge president or continue the search in the circumstance he is not seen as the best fit.
Over the last few weeks, the Delta State University Board Search Committee has met at the IHL Board Office in Jackson to interview prospective candidates to lead Delta State.
"This is a great day for Cleveland and Delta State University," said Cleveland Mayor Billy Nowell, also on the Interview Search Advisory Committee. "He is homegrown and I think he will do an outstanding job.
"He will make his mark at Delta State University and across the region."
LaForge has fashioned a lengthy resume as an attorney in Washington, D.C. and principal of LaForge Government Relations. He has also been a registered lobbyist specializing in government relations and public policy advocacy.
He majored in history while studying at Delta State. He earned his law degree from the University of Mississippi School of Law, received an LL.M. in international law from Georgetown University and studied international law at Cambridge University.
As a DSU alumnus, Mr. LaForge has served as national president of the DSU Alumni Association and a trustee of the Delta State University Foundation.
He was selected Delta State's Alumnus of the Year in 1992 and a charter member of the Delta State University Alumni Hall of Fame in 2007.
While at Delta State, LaForge was a faculty scholar, president of the student government association and charter president of Omicron Delta Kappa national leadership honorary.
He was a co-founder of the Student Body Presidents Council of Mississippi, a first-place medalist in national intercollegiate debate and a Mississippi Youth Congress award winner.
In a previous Bolivar Commercial article, LaForge expressed his appreciation of Cleveland and the university.
"I was raised in Cleveland," he said. "I lived there from second grade to college. I played little league and graduated from Cleveland High School.
"The Delta played a huge role in who I became from several perspectives," he added. "I grew up on campus (DSU) and was influenced by my parents' friends who worked on campus."
"The best friends I have in life were met at DSU."
Dr. Leslie Griffin, dean of education at DSU and one of the search's leaders, also had high praise for LaForge at Friday's press conference.
"One candidate clearly did rise above the others," said Griffin. "He is a talented leader with an impressive background.
"I'm delighted that he has been selected and look forward to working with him to advance Delta State University."
The search has been a long process and Hilpert has stuck to his word by agreeing to serve until the IHL makes an official announcement of his successor.
Members of the search committee include Karen L. Cummins, Shane Hooper, Hal Parker, Alan Perry, Dr. Douglas Rouse and C.D. Smith.
Members of the Interview Search Advisory Committee include Griffin, Nowell, Reagan Dilmore, administrative coordinator for University Facilities at Delta State University; Alanna Ferguson, student body president at Delta State University; Tanya McKinney, associate professor of biology at Delta State University; April Mondy, graduate student at Delta State University; Greg Redlin, vice president of finance at Delta State University; and Clint Wood, chair, Division of Accountancy, Computer Information System, and Finance at Delta State University.

I have a GeekDesk that I love, but I am terrible at organizing everything I work with on my desk. Can you make any recommendations for paper organizers? Desk sets? Anything else that would come to mind? What about storage underneath a desk (the GeekDesk has no built in storage, but I am sure I could add something). asked Oct 02 '11 at 08:49 oliver I realized that without clarification this is a pretty useless question. My desk currently consists of a monitor, a laptop that connects to the monitor, and speakers. What tends to happen is I end with a mass of paper (I've never been great at paper management/file storage) that covers my desk discouraging me from working there. Additionally, I think I need a monitor stand so as to reclaim some of the usable space that it now occupies. I am also just curious to see how other people tackle the problem.

No product will magically produce an organized desk. Organization is one of those changes that must come from within. Start out cheap with some empty cereal boxes or something, and if you can't get organized with that, no gadget is going to do it for you. linkanswered Oct 02 '11 at 13:41 Dave |
You didn't mention what type of monitor but I agree that a monitor stand can be very helpful. I have two LCD monitors and a laptop stand all on arms that clamp to the desk. I've found several major pluses to doing this:
I use Ergotron arms and I highly recommend them. I referenced a scanner above and that is another suggestion I'd make to help tame the paper. Scan as much of the paper as you can. There are good quality inexpensive scanners available as well as low or no cost software to convert the paper into PDFs or other formats. I use Microsoft's One-Note as my electronic filing cabinet but there are many good choices available such as Evernote that store documents and let you quickly find them via searching, either the document or keywords you assign to each. linkanswered Oct 03 '11 at 05:17 |
What kinds of things do you keep on your desk? I use a coffee cup for my pens/pencils (I cut a couple pieces of cardboard to make a 4-way divider to organize pens, pencils, markers/highlighters, and rulers/scissors. A small drawer system might help if you have lots of stuff, I like clear drawers so I can see what's inside. For paper storage I prefer magazine storage boxes, they keep the paper upright. I have plastic ones but they can also be metal or cardboard. For under desk storage I'd just get a filing cabinet or 2 with your desk. linkanswered Oct 02 '11 at 13:53 kodemage |
Use a lableler to identify a place for everything you need either on the desk or in it. For the containers (letter trays, multi-space organizers, pencil cups, paper clip holders, file organizers etc.) on the desk, label what goes in them, and then put a color coded sticky dot on the desk where it goes and then the same color dot on the bottom of the container. On the desk drawers clearly identify what is in the drawer and then go the the Container Store, or someplace equivalent,and buy containers, files ,folders, boxes and whatever fits the different items you will put in the drawer. Label each item and then put it in the appropriate drawer. Once this is done go through to check that everything has been labeled but also make sure that you only have as much as you need of any particular item. For example you don't need more than 100 paper clips b/c you can always refill. I find it very helpful to have a desk set with a pencil and a pen always at the ready and a nice pen and automatic pencil to carry with me. Additional pens and pencils will just make for clutter and will increase the likelihood of your loosing the ones you carry with you. Do the same with folders, papers, files, not pads, sticky notes etc. Only have at hand what you will need in the next 6 months and put the rest in your storage closet. Limit the personal items on your desk (if you must have them there) to one or two although it is best to find another place to display your personal items. Your desk is your work floor and it should be dedicated to that alone. At the end of every day file everything but the one item that you will start with the next day. That is the only file on the desk when you leave. Take 10 min. to create a written to do list for the next day and put that right on top of the one file on the desk. This will get you started on what needs to be done at the start of the next day making it less likely that you will pull things out trying to determine what you need to begin with each day. Constant interruptions are one of the main reasons for the accumulation of clutter b/c they usually require you to take additional items out and put them on the desk which is where they stay b/c then the next interruption comes and you add more clutter and on it goes. By the end of the day the task of organizing is too daunting and you go home. If you can, limit the times that people can contact you(unless of course there is an emergency), and then let them know it. For example take phone calls between 10 and 2 and then 3 and 4; only open your email twice a day and then do not respond to all of them but only those that require a response, and set up "office hours" when you are available to meet. Adhere to this schedule consistently and people will get the message and will respect your schedule. You will have modified their behavior. Containing the interruptions will help to keep your day from getting away from you and give you the few seconds you need after each project to return items the their designated places. It will also make you 25% more productive. Now if you are really serious have someone you trust monitor your "organizational structure" and every time they witness you failing to adhere to your own rules you pay them $1 or .25 or whatever it takes to help you remember to follow your own rules. It has to be enough to hurt a little but not so much as to bankrupt you. You decide. Follow this plan religiously and I will promise you that not only will your desk be organized but you will also be more productive and (the biggest pay off) you will feel far less stress at work and much more in control of what you do. If this works, any and all expressions of gratitude will be appreciated. George email@example.com linkanswered Oct 02 '11 at 15:33 chris667 |
For papers that need to be retained, but not as originals, I would urge you get a scanner and scan and file all your loose documents into the computer. You can then back those files up using an on-line backup company such as Carbonite, and also do a secondary backup onto CDs and an external hard-drive. As a bonus, the scanned documents are much more easily accessible than they would be stuffed away in a filing cabinet. Takes much less time to retrieve them. Scanning changed my life for the better, I must say, although staying organized is still an ongoing effort. linkanswered Oct 03 '11 at 09:36 artthorp |
If your problem is paper then you need a filing cabinet. Simple. What's not simple is how to use the file cabinet. It can be tricky to know what to label your files, how to group things, and how long to keep things. If you don't know where to put something, if you don't know how to find it when you need it, and you keep stuffing your files full until they are bursting, then it just won't work. I've been using the Freedom Filer system/product for a while and have found it solves all these problems. You look at this thing and you think "Why am I paying for a bunch of labels?" But really this system makes a filing system work. First, it gives you a sensible way to group your papers. Second, it has a built in method for purging old papers that is really quite clever. I recommend giving it a look. linkanswered Oct 02 '11 at 17:54 |
Anthrop- has it right. The days of rooms full of filing drawers are ,thankfully, over. By storing your files in the cloud you have the option of accessing them from anywhere you might be. One other rule to follow; If the document is being stored somewhere else and you are not likely to need it again soon then shred rather than scan. Now you have to use common sense here and if the document is important to a project that you are in charge of you might not want to rely on some else to copy it.

For immediate release - Friday, May 28, 2004
Contact: Bill Brauch (Office of A.G.): 515-281-8772Chris Coleman (Iowa BBB): 515-202-8845
DES MOINES. Attorney General Tom Miller and the Iowa Better Business Bureau today warned Iowans to be wary of consumer scams that sometimes strike in the wake of natural disasters such as the flooding experienced in Iowa this past week.
"Home repair con-artists sometimes move in after a disaster because the conditions may give them an edge," Miller said. "There may be hundreds of people who are eager to get cleanup or repairs done, there may be a shortage of local contractors to do all the work, there may be money around because of disaster or insurance payments, and people may be in a rush to get back to normal."
Miller and Chris Coleman, President of the BBB, cautioned Iowans to be especially careful about contractors coming to their door and asking for advance payment for cleanup or repairs. "That's a recipe for rip-off. They may take your money and run and do little or no work," Coleman said.
Miller and the BBB offered these tips to avoid being victimized by flood recovery schemes:
Miller also encouraged consumers to contact the Consumer Protection Division if they have complaints about price gouging - charging exorbitant and unjustified prices for products or services that are necessary for disaster victims.
Iowa regulations make price gouging illegal when a disaster declaration is in effect, as it is for 61 Iowa counties. (Price gouging is defined in the Attorney General's Administrative Rule as raising prices unreasonably above the price at which the merchandise or service was sold in the usual course of business immediately prior to the onset of the emergency. The Rule recognizes that prices may be higher because sellers also often incur increased costs. The Rule applies during the emergency declaration and "subsequent recovery period" up to six months.)
Miller and the BBB said that other scams sometimes crop up in connection with natural disasters - charity scams (fraudulently soliciting donations for bogus charities purportedly to help disaster victims), advance-fee loan scams (taking money in advance supposedly to arrange a guaranteed loan but never providing the loan), and con-artists presenting themselves as utility or government officials to get into people's homes for purposes of theft or other scams.
"Unfortunately, con-artists have earned a reputation for preying on people when they're down," Miller said. "Cheating flood victims is the definition of adding insult to injury. People need to be careful as the waters go down and recovery gets into full swing."
Miller emphasized that he is hopeful that flood-related consumer scams can be avoided in Iowa. "Iowans are smart consumers. People have worked hard to reduce the number of homes damaged and the amount of damage, and I'm hoping we have a sufficient number of reputable local contractors to handle the work. I think the con-artists may conclude that this is not good territory for them to try their schemes," he said.
Miller and the BBB also emphasized the need for all Iowans to be on the lookout for weather-related recovery scams, even if they live in counties not subject to disaster declarations. Counties included thus far in the Governor's disaster declarations include: Adair, Adams, Allamakee, Audubon, Benton, Black Hawk, Boone, Bremer, Buchanan, Buena Vista, Butler, Calhoun, Cass, Cedar, Cerro Gordo, Chickasaw, Clay, Clayton, Clinton, Dallas, Delaware, Dubuque, Fayette, Floyd, Franklin, Fremont, Grundy, Guthrie, Hamilton, Hancock, Hardin, Howard, Humboldt, Iowa, Jackson, Jasper, Johnson, Jones, Kossuth, Linn, Lucas, Madison, Marion, Marshall, Mills, Mitchell, Montgomery, Page, Palo Alto, Pocahontas, Pottawattamie, Polk, Sac, Shelby, Story, Tama, Warren, Winnebago, Winneshiek, Webster and Wright Counties.

Christ's discourse with Nicodemus. (1-21) The baptism of John of Christ John's testimony. (22-36)
Verses 1-8 Nicodemus was afraid, or ashamed to be seen with Christ, therefore came in the night. When religion is out of fashion, there are many Nicodemites. But though he came by night, Jesus bid him welcome, and hereby taught us to encourage good beginnings, although weak. And though now he came by night, yet afterward he owned Christ publicly. He did not talk with Christ about state affairs, though he was a ruler, but about the concerns of his own soul and its salvation, and went at once to them. Our Saviour spoke of the necessity and nature of regeneration or the new birth, and at once directed Nicodemus to the source of holiness of the heart. Birth is the beginning of life; to be born again, is to begin to live anew, as those who have lived much amiss, or to little purpose. We must have a new nature, new principles, new affections, new aims. By our first birth we were corrupt, shapen in sin; therefore we must be made new creatures. No stronger expression could have been chosen to signify a great and most remarkable change of state and character. We must be entirely different from what we were before, as that which begins to be at any time, is not, and cannot be the same with that which was before. This new birth is from heaven, ch. 1:13 , and its tendency is to heaven. It is a great change made in the heart of a sinner, by the power of the Holy Spirit. It means that something is done in us, and for us, which we cannot do for ourselves. Something is wrong, whereby such a life begins as shall last for ever. We cannot otherwise expect any benefit by Christ; it is necessary to our happiness here and hereafter. What Christ speak, Nicodemus misunderstood, as if there had been no other way of regenerating and new-moulding an immortal soul, than by new-framing the body. But he acknowledged his ignorance, which shows a desire to be better informed. It is then further explained by the Lord Jesus. He shows the Author of this blessed change. It is not wrought by any wisdom or power of our own, but by the power of the blessed Spirit. We are shapen in iniquity, which makes it necessary that our nature be changed. We are not to marvel at this; for, when we consider the holiness of God, the depravity of our nature, and the happiness set before us, we shall not think it strange that so much stress is laid upon this. The regenerating work of the Holy Spirit is compared to water. It is also probable that Christ had reference to the ordinance of baptism. Not that all those, and those only, that are baptized, are saved; but without that new birth which is wrought by the Spirit, and signified by baptism, none shall be subjects of the kingdom of heaven. The same word signifies both the wind and the Spirit. The wind bloweth where it listeth for us; God directs it. The Spirit sends his influences where, and when, on whom, and in what measure and degree, he pleases. Though the causes are hidden, the effects are plain, when the soul is brought to mourn for sin, and to breathe after Christ. Christ's stating of the doctrine and the necessity of regeneration, it should seem, made it not clearer to Nicodemus. Thus the things of the Spirit of God are foolishness to the natural man. Many think that cannot be proved, which they cannot believe. Christ's discourse of gospel truths, ver. ( 11-13 ) , shows the folly of those who make these things strange unto them; and it recommends us to search them out. Jesus Christ is every way able to reveal the will of God to us; for he came down from heaven, and yet is in heaven. We have here a notice of Christ's two distinct natures in one person, so that while he is the Son of man, yet he is in heaven. God is the "HE THAT IS," and heaven is the dwelling-place of his holiness. The knowledge of this must be from above, and can be received by faith alone. Jesus Christ came to save us by healing us, as the children of Israel, stung with fiery serpents, were cured and lived by looking up to the brazen serpent, ( Numbers 21:6-9 ). In this observe the deadly and destructive nature of sin. Ask awakened consciences, ask damned sinners, they will tell you, that how charming soever the allurements of sin may be, at the last it bites like a serpent. See the powerful remedy against this fatal malady. Christ is plainly set forth to us in the gospel. He whom we offended is our Peace, and the way of applying for a cure is by believing. If any so far slight either their disease by sin, or the method of cure by Christ, as not to receive Christ upon his own terms, their ruin is upon their own heads. He has said, Look and be saved, look and live; lift up the eyes of your faith to Christ crucified. And until we have grace to do this, we shall not be cured, but still are wounded with the stings of Satan, and in a dying state. Jesus Christ came to save us by pardoning us, that we might not die by the sentence of the law. Here is gospel, good news indeed. Here is God's love in giving his Son for the world. God so loved the world; so really, so richly. Behold and wonder, that the great God should love such a worthless world! Here, also, is the great gospel duty, to believe in Jesus Christ. God having given him to be our Prophet, Priest, and King, we must give up ourselves to be ruled, and taught, and saved by him. And here is the great gospel benefit, that whoever believes in Christ, shall not perish, but shall have everlasting life. God was in Christ reconciling the world to himself, and so saving it. It could not be saved, but through him; there is no salvation in any other. From all this is shown the happiness of true believers; he that believeth in Christ is not condemned. Though he has been a great sinner, yet he is not dealt with according to what his sins deserve. How great is the sin of unbelievers! God sent One to save us, that was dearest to himself; and shall he not be dearest to us? How great is the misery of unbelievers! they are condemned already; which speaks a certain condemnation; a present condemnation. The wrath of God now fastens upon them; and their own hearts condemn them. There is also a condemnation grounded on their former guilt; they are open to the law for all their sins; because they are not by faith interested in the gospel pardon. Unbelief is a sin against the remedy. It springs from the enmity of the heart of man to God, from love of sin in some form. Read also the doom of those that would not know Christ. Sinful works are works of darkness. The wicked world keep as far from this light as they can, lest their deeds should be reproved. Christ is hated, because sin is loved. If they had not hated saving knowledge, they would not sit down contentedly in condemning ignorance. On the other hand, renewed hearts bid this light welcome. A good man acts truly and sincerely in all he does. He desires to know what the will of God is, and to do it, though against his own worldly interest. A change in his whole character and conduct has taken place. The love of God is shed abroad in his heart by the Holy Ghost, and is become the commanding principle of his actions. So long as he continues under a load of unforgiven guilt, there can be little else than slavish fear of God; but when his doubts are done away, when he sees the righteous ground whereon this forgiveness is built, he rests on it as his own, and is united to God by unfeigned love. Our works are good when the will of God is the rule of them, and the glory of God the end of them; when they are done in his strength, and for his sake; to him, and not to men. Regeneration, or the new birth, is a subject to which the world is very averse; it is, however, the grand concern, in comparison with which every thing else is but trifling. What does it signify though we have food to eat in plenty, and variety of raiment to put on, if we are not born again? if after a few mornings and evenings spent in unthinking mirth, carnal pleasure, and riot, we die in our sins, and lie down in sorrow? What does it signify though we are well able to act our parts in life, in every other respect, if at last we hear from the Supreme Judge, "Depart from me, I know you not, ye workers of iniquity?"
Verses 22-36 John was fully satisfied with the place and work assigned him; but Jesus came on a more important work. He also knew that Jesus would increase in honour and influence, for of his government and peace there would be no end, while he himself would be less followed. John knew that Jesus came from heaven as the Son of God, while he was a sinful, mortal man, who could only speak about the more plain subjects of religion. The words of Jesus were the words of God; he had the Spirit, not by measure, as the prophets, but in all fulness. Everlasting life could only be had by faith in Him, and might be thus obtained; whereas all those, who believe not in the Son of God, cannot partake of salvation, but the wrath of God for ever rests upon them.
John 3:1-21 . NIGHT INTERVIEW OF NICODEMUS WITH JESUS.
1, 2. Nicodemus--In this member of the Sanhedrim sincerity and timidity are seen struggling together.
2. came to Jesus by night--One of those superficial "believers" mentioned in John 2:23 John 2:24 , yet inwardly craving further satisfaction, Nicodemus comes to Jesus in quest of it, but comes "by night" (see John 19:38 John 19:39 , 12:42 ); he avows his conviction that He was
come from God--an expression never applied to a merely human messenger, and probably meaning more here--but only as "a teacher," and in His miracles he sees a proof merely that "God is with Him." Thus, while unable to repress his convictions, he is afraid of committing himself too far.
3. Except, &c.--This blunt and curt reply was plainly meant to shake the whole edifice of the man's religion, in order to lay a deeper and more enduring foundation. Nicodemus probably thought he had gone a long way, and expected, perhaps, to be complimented on his candor. Instead of this, he is virtually told that he has raised a question which he is not in a capacity to solve, and that before approaching it, his spiritual vision required to be rectified by an entire revolution on his inner man. Had the man been less sincere, this would certainly have repelled him; but with persons in his mixed state of mind--to which Jesus was no stranger ( John 2:25 )--such methods speed better than more honeyed words and gradual approaches.
a man--not a Jew merely; the necessity is a universal one.
be born again--or, as it were, begin life anew in relation to God; his manner of thinking, feeling, and acting, with reference to spiritual things, undergoing a fundamental and permanent revolution.
cannot see--can have no part in (just as one is said to "see life," "see death," &c.).
the kingdom of God--whether in its beginnings here ( Luke 16:16 ), or its consummation hereafter ( Matthew 25:34 , Ephesians 5:5 ).
4. How, &c.--The figure of the new birth, if it had been meant only of Gentile proselytes to the Jewish religion, would have been intelligible enough to Nicodemus, being quite in keeping with the language of that day; but that Jews themselves should need a new birth was to him incomprehensible.
5. of water and of the Spirit--A twofold explanation of the "new birth," so startling to Nicodemus. To a Jewish ecclesiastic, so familiar with the symbolical application of water, in every variety of way and form of expression, this language was fitted to show that the thing intended was no other than a thorough spiritual purification by the operation of the Holy Ghost. Indeed, element of water and operation of the Spirit are brought together in a glorious evangelical prediction of Ezekiel ( Ezekiel 36:25-27 ), which Nicodemus might have been reminded of had such spiritualities not been almost lost in the reigning formalism. Already had the symbol of water been embodied in an initiatory ordinance, in the baptism of the Jewish expectants of Messiah by the Baptist, not to speak of the baptism of Gentile proselytes before that; and in the Christian Church it was soon to become the great visible door of entrance into "the kingdom of God," the reality being the sole work of the Holy Ghost ( Titus 3:5 ).
6-8. That which is born, &c.--A great universal proposition; "That which is begotten carries within itself the nature of that which begat it" [OLSHAUSEN].
flesh--Not the mere material body, but all that comes into the world by birth, the entire man; yet not humanity simply, but in its corrupted, depraved condition, in complete subjection to the law of the fall ( Romans 8:1-9 ). So that though a man "could enter a second time into his mother's womb and be born," he would be no nearer this "new birth" than before ( Job 14:4 , Psalms 51:5 ).
is spirit--"partakes of and possesses His spiritual nature."
7. Marvel not, &c.--If a spiritual nature only can see and enter the kingdom of God; if all we bring into the world with us be the reverse of spiritual; and if this spirituality be solely of the Holy Ghost, no wonder a new birth is indispensable.
Ye must--"Ye, says Jesus, not we" [BENGEL]. After those universal propositions, about what "a man" must be, to "enter the kingdom of God" ( John 3:5 )--this is remarkable, showing that our Lord meant to hold Himself forth as "separate from sinners."
8. The wind, &c.--Breath and spirit (one word both in Hebrew and Greek) are constantly brought together in Scripture as analogous ( Job 27:3 , 33:4 , Ezekiel 37:9-14 ).
canst not tell, &c.--The laws which govern the motion of the winds are even yet but partially discovered; but the risings, failings, and change in direction many times in a day, of those gentle breezes here referred to, will probably ever be a mystery to us: So of the operation of the Holy Ghost in the new birth.
9, 10. How, &c.--Though the subject still confounds Nicodemus, the necessity and possibility of the new birth is no longer the point with him, but the nature of it and how it is brought about [LUTHARDT]. "From this moment Nicodemus says nothing more, but has sunk unto a disciple who has found his true teacher. Therefore the Saviour now graciously advances in His communications of truth, and once more solemnly brings to the mind of this teacher in Israel, now become a learner, his own not guiltless ignorance, that He may then proceed to utter, out of the fulness of His divine knowledge, such farther testimonies both of earthly and heavenly things as his docile scholar may to his own profit receive" [STIER].
10. master--"teacher." The question clearly implies that the doctrine of regeneration is so far disclosed in the Old Testament that Nicodemus was culpable in being ignorant of it. Nor is it merely as something that should be experienced under the Gospel that the Old Testament holds it forth--as many distinguished critics allege, denying that there was any such thing as regeneration before Christ. For our Lord's proposition is universal, that no fallen man is or can be spiritual without a regenerating operation of the Holy Ghost, and the necessity of a spiritual obedience under whatever name, in opposition to mere mechanical services, is proclaimed throughout all the Old Testament.
11-13. We speak that we know, and . . . have seen--that is, by absolute knowledge and immediate vision of God, which "the only-begotten Son in the bosom of the Father" claims as exclusively His own ( John 1:18 ). The "we" and "our" are here used, though Himself only is intended, in emphatic contrast, probably, with the opening words of Nicodemus, "Rabbi, we know.", &c.
ye receive not, &c.--referring to the class to which Nicodemus belonged, but from which he was beginning to be separated in spirit.
12. earthly things--such as regeneration, the gate of entrance to the kingdom of God on earth, and which Nicodemus should have understood better, as a truth even of that more earthly economy to which he belonged.
heavenly things--the things of the new and more heavenly evangelical economy, only to be fully understood after the effusion of the Spirit from heaven through the exalted Saviour.
13. no man hath ascended, &c.--There is something paradoxical in this language--"No one has gone up but He that came down, even He who is at once both up and down." Doubtless it was intended to startle and constrain His auditor to think that there must be mysterious elements in His Person. The old Socinians, to subvert the doctrine of the pre-existence of Christ, seized upon this passage as teaching that the man Jesus was secretly caught up to heaven to receive His instructions, and then "came down from heaven" to deliver them. But the sense manifestly is this: "The perfect knowledge of God is not obtained by any man's going up from earth to heaven to receive it--no man hath so ascended--but He whose proper habitation, in His essential and eternal nature, is heaven, hath, by taking human flesh, descended as the Son of man to disclose the Father, whom He knows by immediate gaze alike in the flesh as before He assumed it, being essentially and unchangeably 'in the bosom of the Father'" ( John 1:18 ).
14-16. And as Moses, &c.--Here now we have the "heavenly things," as before the "earthly," but under a veil, for the reason mentioned in John 3:12 . The crucifixion of Messiah is twice after this veiled under the same lively term--"uplifting," John 8:28 , John 12:32 John 12:33 . Here it is still further veiled--though to us who know what it means, rendered vastly more instructive--by reference to the brazen serpent. The venom of the fiery serpents, shooting through the veins of the rebellious Israelites, was spreading death through the camp--lively emblem of the perishing condition of men by reason of sin. In both cases the remedy was divinely provided. In both the way of cure strikingly resembled that of the disease. Stung by serpents, by a serpent they are healed. By "fiery serpents" bitten--serpents, probably, with skin spotted fiery red [KURTZ]--the instrument of cure is a serpent of brass or copper, having at a distance the same appearance. So in redemption, as by man came death, by Man also comes life--Man, too, "in the likeness of sinful flesh" ( Romans 8:3 ), differing in nothing outward and apparent from those who, pervaded by the poison of the serpent, were ready to perish. But as the uplifted serpent had none of the venom of which the serpent-bitten people were dying, so while the whole human family were perishing of the deadly wound inflicted on it by the old serpent, "the Second Man," who arose over humanity with healing in His wings, was without spot or wrinkle, or any such thing. In both cases the remedy is conspicuously displayed; in the one case on a pole, in the other on the cross, to "draw all men unto Him" ( John 12:32 ). In both cases it is by directing the eye to the uplifted Remedy that the cure is effected; in the one case the bodily eye, in the other the gaze of the soul by "believing in Him," as in that glorious ancient proclamation--"Look unto me and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth," &c. ( Isaiah 45:22 ). Both methods are stumbling to human reason. What, to any thinking Israelite, could seem more unlikely than that a deadly poison should be dried up in his body by simply looking on a reptile of brass? Such a stumbling-block to the Jews and to the Greeks foolishness was faith in the crucified Nazarene as a way of deliverance from eternal perdition. Yet was the warrant in both cases to expect a cure equally rational and well grounded. As the serpent was God's ordinance for the cure of every bitten Israelite, so is Christ for the salvation of every perishing sinner--the one however a purely arbitrary ordinance, the other divinely adapted to man's complicated maladies. In both cases the efficacy is the same. As one simple look at the serpent, however distant and however weak, brought an instantaneous cure, even so, real faith in the Lord Jesus, however tremulous, however distant--be it but real faith--brings certain and instant healing to the perishing soul. In a word, the consequences of disobedience are the same in both. Doubtless many bitten Israelites, galling as their case was, would reason rather than obey, would speculate on the absurdity of expecting the bite of a living serpent to be cured by looking at a piece of dead metal in the shape of one--speculate thus till they died. Alas! is not salvation by a crucified Redeemer subjected to like treatment? Has the offense of the cross" yet ceased? (Compare 2 Kings 5:12 ).
16. For God so loved, &c.--What proclamation of the Gospel has been so oft on the lips of missionaries and preachers in every age since it was first uttered? What has sent such thrilling sensations through millions of mankind? What has been honored to bring such multitudes to the feet of Christ? What to kindle in the cold and selfish breasts of mortals the fires of self-sacrificing love to mankind, as these words of transparent simplicity, yet overpowering majesty? The picture embraces several distinct compartments: "THE WORLD"--in its widest sense--ready "to perish"; the immense "LOVE OF GOD" to that perishing world, measurable only, and conceivable only, by the gift which it drew forth from Him; THE GIFT itself--"He so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son," or, in the language of Paul, "spared not His own Son" ( Romans 8:32 ), or in that addressed to Abraham when ready to offer Isaac on the altar, "withheld not His Son, His only Son, whom He loved" ( Genesis 22:16 ); the FRUIT of this stupendous gift--not only deliverance from impending "perdition," but the bestowal of everlasting life; the MODE in which all takes effect--by "believing" on the Son. How would Nicodemus' narrow Judaism become invisible in the blaze of this Sun of righteousness seen rising on "the world" with healing in His wings! ( Malachi 4:2 ).
17-21. not to condemn, &c.--A statement of vast importance. Though "condemnation" is to many the issue of Christ's mission ( John 3:19 ), it is not the object of His mission, which is purely a saving one.
18. is not condemned--Having, immediately on his believing, "passed from death unto life" ( John 5:24 ).
condemned already--Rejecting the one way of deliverance from that "condemnation" which God gave His Son to remove, and so wilfully remaining condemned.
19. this is the condemnation, &c.--emphatically so, revealing the condemnation already existing, and sealing up under it those who will not be delivered from it.
light is come into the world--in the Person of Him to whom Nicodemus was listening.
loved darkness, &c.--This can only be known by the deliberate rejection of Christ, but that does fearfully reveal it.
20. reproved--by detection.
21. doeth truth--whose only object in life is to be and do what will bear the light. Therefore he loves and "comes to the light," that all he is and does, being thus thoroughly tested, may be seen to have nothing in it but what is divinely wrought and divinely approved. This is the "Israelite, indeed, in whom is no guile."
John 3:22-36 . JESUS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD OF THE BAPTIST--HIS NOBLE TESTIMONY TO HIS MASTER.
22-24. land of Judea--the rural parts of that province, the foregoing conversation being held in the capital.
baptized--in the sense explained in John 4:2 .
23. Ænon . . . Salim--on the west of Jordan. (Compare John 3:26 with John 1:28 ).
24. John not yet cast into prison--Hence it is plain that our Lord's ministry did not commence with the imprisonment of John, though, but for this, we should have drawn that inference from Matthew 4:12 and Mark's ( Mark 1:14 ) express statement.
25, 26. between some of--rather, "on the part of."
and the Jews--rather (according to the best manuscripts), "and a Jew,"
about purifying--that is, baptizing, the symbolical meaning of washing with water being put (as in John 2:6 ) for the act itself. As John and Jesus were the only teachers who baptized Jews, discussions might easily arise between the Baptist's disciples and such Jews as declined to submit to that rite.
26. Rabbi, &c.--"Master, this man tells us that He to whom thou barest such generous witness beyond Jordan is requiting thy generosity by drawing all the people away to Himself. At this rate, thou shalt soon have no disciples at all." The reply to this is one of the noblest and most affecting utterances that ever came from the lips of man.
27-30. A man, &c.--"I do my heaven-prescribed work, and that is enough for me. Would you have me mount into my Master's place? Said I not unto you, I am not the Christ? The Bride is not mine, why should the people stay with me?? Mine it is to point the burdened to the Lamb of God that taketh away the sin of the world, to tell them there is Balm in Gilead, and a Physician there. And shall I grudge to see them, in obedience to the call, flying as a cloud, and as doves to their windows? Whose is the Bride but the Bridegroom's? Enough for me to be the Bridegroom's friend, sent by Him to negotiate the match, privileged to bring together the Saviour and those He is come to seek and to save, and rejoicing with joy unspeakable if I may but 'stand and hear the Bridegroom's voice,' witnessing the blessed espousals. Say ye, then, they go from me to Him? Ye bring me glad tidings of great joy. He must increase, but I must decrease; this, my joy, therefore is fulfilled."
A man can receive, &c.--assume nothing, that is, lawfully and with any success; that is, Every man has his work and sphere appointed him from above, Even Christ Himself came under this law ( Hebrews 5:4 ).
31-34. He that, &c.--Here is the reason why He must increase while all human teachers must decrease. The Master "cometh from above"--descending from His proper element, the region of those "heavenly things" which He came to reveal, and so, although mingling with men and things on the earth, is not "of the earth," either in Person or Word. The servants, on the contrary, springing of earth, are of the earth, and their testimony, even though divine in authority, partakes necessarily of their own earthiness. (So strongly did the Baptist feel this contrast that the last clause just repeats the first). It is impossible for a sharper line of distinction to be drawn between Christ and all human teachers, even when divinely commissioned and speaking by the power of the Holy Ghost. And who does not perceive it? The words of prophets and apostles are undeniable and most precious truth; but in the words of Christ we hear a voice as from the excellent Glory, the Eternal Word making Himself heard in our own flesh.
32. what he hath seen and
and no man receiveth, &c.--John's disciples had said, "All come to Him" ( John 3:26 ). The Baptist here virtually says, Would it were so, but alas! they are next to "none" [BENGEL]. They were far readier to receive himself, and obliged him to say, I am not the Christ, and he seems pained at this.
33. hath set to His seal, &c.--gives glory to God whose words Christ speaks, not as prophets and apostles by a partial communication of the Spirit to them.
34. for God giveth not the Spirit by measure--Here, again, the sharpest conceivable line of distinction is drawn between Christ and all human-inspired teachers: "They have the Spirit in a limited degree; but God giveth not [to Him] the Spirit by measure." It means the entire fulness of divine life and divine power. The present tense "giveth," very aptly points out the permanent communication of the Spirit by the Father to the Son, so that a constant flow and reflow of living power is to be understood (Compare John 1:15 ) [OLSHAUSEN].
35, 36. The Father loveth, have the "delivering over of all things into the hands of the Son," while here we have the deep spring of that august act in the Father's ineffable "love of the Son."
36. hath everlasting life--already has it.
shall not see life--The contrast here is striking: The one has already a life that will endure for ever--the other not only has it not now, but shall never have it--never see it.
abideth on him--It was on Him before, and not being removed in the only possible way, by "believing on the Son," it necessarily remaineth on him! Note.--How flatly does this contradict the teaching of many in our day, that there neither was, nor is, anything in God against sinners which needed to be removed by Christ, but only in men against God!

Continuing my Starbucks kick armed with new information and new product choices, I decided to try the protein plate after a particularly difficult day at the gym. After all, since protein helps repair muscles post-exercise, this product seemed perfect for me. What exactly comprises this assortment of goodies, you may ask? One $4.95 package contains a cage-free hard-boiled egg, a mini whole wheat bagel with a packet of peanut butter, a couple pieces of white cheddar cheese, apple slices, and a bunch of grapes, all for a satisfying 330 calories.
But how does it taste? The grapes were fresh and the apple slices surprisingly crisp (this is a packaged good, after all). The egg was not overdone (a problem I often find with other pre-cooked, packaged eggs), and the bagel with peanut butter was good as well, if a little dry.
The Starbucks Power Protein Plate also provides 16 grams of total fat (25% of the RDA - no doubt due to the peanut butter and cheese), 4.5 grams of that is saturated fat (22% of the RDA), 67% of the RDA for cholesterol (200 mg), 22% of the RDA for sodium (540 mg), 16 grams of protein and 35 grams of carbohydrates which includes 20% of the RDA for fiber (5 grams) and 16 grams of protein. In addition, each plate provides a full 25% of the daily RDA for calcium.
Oui - I recommend Starbucks Oatmeal instead of this protein plate if you are watching your dietary intake. It will fill you up, but it really is high in saturated fat and cholesterol (from the egg). If I were to make any changes, I would include low-fat cheese, and do something using egg whites instead - perhaps a small omlette.

Peter Thomas Roth Instant Mineral Powder SPF 45
Peter Thomas Roth Instant Mineral Powder SPF 45 Reviews
One of my favorites
I love this sunscreen to use as touch ups throughout the day. It's a mineral sunscreen that goes on sheer and weightless, so it's perfect for touching up on any shiny spots on your face. The fact that it's a physical sunscreen (titanium dioxide and zinc oxide) is a great thinkg because physical sunscreens don't require indoor time to become effective like sunscreen lotions usually require 15-30 mi...read morenutes before going outside. Just open the cap, and brush it on; the powder easily disperses through the bristles. You can use this ANYWHERE on your body, from your face, arms, chest, etc. I do recommend using this primarily as a touch up sunscreen, so you should still wear a liquid or spray on your skin, and then after two hours when you need touching up, or if you become oily or sweaty, then this is a good product to have on your person. It's VERY portable, so this can fit in your pocket everywhere you go. When you're done applying it on you, just pull the base out, and that will pull the brush back inside. Then place you cap on and push the base back out. Do be careful with handling this product because it is very delicate and powder can get over you if you're not careful. Also, it's difficult to see how much powder you have left. Although this lasts for a very long time if you don't waste too much of it, it would be nice if the tube was clear so you can see when you're low. You can open the bottom of the tube, but you are 95 percent likely that you're going to spill a bunch of powder all over you. This hasn't made me break out and it gives me a nice finish because both titanium dioxide and zinc oxide tend to reflect light. It might not be your friend if you're getting pictures with flash taken of you, but if you're walking around outside, it's okay. This is $35 a tube, but I think it's worth it because I do feel that it protects me well in the sun. I haven't had a single sunburn in using this to touch up in addition with my liquid sunscreen. A COOL tip--for people with blonde, thinning, thin or receding hairline, or if your scalp tends to burn easily; brush this into your hair and it's a great way to keep your scalp from burning if you aren't wearing a hat. — 2 years, 7 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 4 people said helpful
Very easy to use.
Just dab the brush all over your face to deposit the sunblock powder. No need to blend like you do with powder makeup. It does not affect your makeup nor leave you with sticky fingers from creamy sunblocks. Whether or not it actually deposits enough sunblock for adequate spf protection is difficult to determine. I only use this to reapply throughout the day. I always use a liquid sunblock in ...read morethe morning.

Well it doesn't feel Greasy & cheaper than Eminence
So I give it a little higher than I like because my girls both have a brush of their own. They hate the greasy feeling of the lotion though I force them to wear both, but they love the powder. It feels like makeup and is so much easier to apply. This was on sale at my spa, so I bought like 4 of them. I use this as a back up, but the bristles on the brush and pretty ruff.

It does last a while and is good in sealing in makeup or or bb creams. If you have a hard time getting kids to use Sublock, this is a great alternative than always having to constantly nag them and make sure they protect their skin. I do have to say that it works great on your hands. I tried using it on my decolletage, but I felt itchy and rash like after trying it several times. — 2 years, 2 months agoThis review is: Helpful | Not helpful | Inappropriate | 1 of 4 people said helpful

Laoprasopwattana K et al. – During a chikungunya (CHIK) outbreak in a dengue viral infection (DVI)–endemic area, overdiagnosis of CHIK was common. Skin rash during fever and white blood cell count > 5000 cells/mm3 or specific antigen testing (if available) can be helpful in differentiating CHIK from DVI.
Methods- A prospective cohort study was conducted between April and July 2009 in children aged 1 month to 15 years who lived in a CHIK outbreak area in southern Thailand and who had fever <7 days with arthralgia/arthritis, myalgia or rash.
- CHIK was confirmed by real-time polymerase chain reaction or the indirect immunofluorescence test.
- Fifty patients were suspected of having CHIK, of whom 32 were confirmed, 1 had coinfection with dengue viral infection (DVI), 10 had dengue alone and 7 had an acute febrile illness.
- The specificity and positive predictive value of fever and arthralgia together to diagnose CHIK were 47.1% and 74.2%, and the corresponding values of the standard clinical triad (fever, arthralgia, rash) were 70.6% and 83.3%, respectively.

Times are tough right now. If you cannot afford your rent and are in danger of getting evicted, find out what you can do.
These actions are very common in places where houses are mainly purposed for rent.As in these places generally people didn't leave houses easily so the landlords use to take some harsh legal actions against them.I am glad to know this procedure.
I would like to know if anyone knows anything about this landlord situation i have. I have stopped paying rent to my landlord since June 2010. He tried to put me out by calling, threats and even had someone kick open the doors twice.(Went to court and press charges on the people that did it.) Came in and changed my locks.(which i press charges on him for that). But he will not go to court. Why would he not take me to court for back rent or his property. I checked its in his name. reason for me not paying is that he wont fix anything. So he told me to just leave. I told him. NO. Im still there and still no papers to go to court. WHAT COULD IT POSSIBLY BE?
It would be more helpful if there were programs that offered rental assistance before the eviction instead of it going as far as an eviction. Are there programs such as this? I can't seem to locate any of them.

Crime Stoppers
What is Crime Stoppers?
Crime Stoppers is a program in which member of the community, the media, law enforcement agencies and businesses work together to solve crimes. Crime Stoppers offers rewards for information about criminal activities. When giving information about a crime, callers do NOT have to leave their name and are NOT required to testify in a court of law.
How does Crime Stoppers work?
Each week a "Crime of the Week" is publicized through the radio and newspaper. Citizens are encouraged to call Crime Stoppers at 243-CALL (243.2255) with information about that crime or any other unsolved crime in our area.
Each caller is assigned a number and will be asked to call Crime Stoppers at a later time to see if their crime tip resulted in an arrest. If so, the caller will be eligible for a reward.
Citizens with vital information about crimes sometimes fail to contact the police because they fear retaliation or they do not want to appear in court. The result is that many criminals are still walking our streets and committing other crimes.
Who benefits from Crime Stoppers?
Society as a whole benefits from Crime Stoppers. A criminal is taken off the streets and is no longer a threat to you, your children or your business.
How can you help?
Crime Stoppers is funded through donations from people like you - Individuals, Professional Associations, Corporations, Retailers, and Civic and Social Groups. Crime Stoppers only purpose is to make Wilson a better and safer place to live. We need your help to reach that goal. Tax-Deductible donations can be made to:
P.O. Box 1146
Wilson, NC 27894-1146

Airports: 1 (2012). St. Helena is a remote volcanic island in the South Atlantic about 1,100 mi (1,770 km) from the west coast of Africa. It is famous as Napoléon's place of exile (1815–1821). The island was discovered in 1502 by João da Nova, a Spanish navigator in the service of Portugal. It was taken for England in 1659 by the East India Company and was brought under the direct government of the Crown in 1834. After the opening of the Suez Canal in 1870, St. Helena's importance as a port of call diminished. About two-thirds of the colony's budget is provided by the United Kingdom in the form of a subsidy. Before September 1, 2009, St. Helena had two dependencies: Ascension (34 sq mi; 88 sq km), an island about 700 mi (1,127 km) northwest of St. Helena; and Tristan da Cunha (40 sq mi; 104 sq km), a group of six islands about 1,500 mi (2,414 km) south-southwest of St. Helena. A new constitution which began on September 1, 2009, came into force giving the three islands equal status in the territory. See also Encyclopedia: Saint Helena .

Last year, we opened a boutique in the heart of the China World Mall. Located in the Chaoyang district, one of the richest neighbourhoods in the city, the China World Mall is on everyone's must-see list when they go to Beijing. It is an integral part of the China World Trade Centre. Opened since 1990, it was one of the first "shopping malls" in China. It is now over 100.000 sqm and houses 300 stores... Including our shiny MCM boutique! There are also restaurants, cinemas and an ice rink. Luxury shopping AND fun times? I'm sold! Like all malls, it becomes a real whimsical Winter Wonderland during the festive period. This year, it was an MCM themed Christmas... Just have a look:
Three magnificent golden trees...
...With some very precious ornaments...
... and more...
...held by the magical hands of the golden tree fairies.
And a tree topper that will make many people jealous, including yours truly.
Another mall with a particularly lovely display was iAPM. It was a very different story, less gilded and more about the purity of snow... It essentially gave us the white Christmas we had been dreaming of. Just like the ones we used to know...
White and silver MCM baubles
A beautiful white Christmas tree inside a glass case reminds us of a snow globe.
Can you spy the giant MCM trunk?
It looks just as glorious in the daytime
I am also loving Rex Zou's photos of our tree on Instagram!

Kazam provides an alternative way to learn to ride a peddled bicycle based on the concept of balance first, pedal last. It is a training bicycle that assists children ages 3-6 to balance, increase coordination and ultimately ride a traditional bicycle for the first time with confidence. This customized toddler bicycle has the steering and balancing challenges of a traditional bicycle but it has no pedals, chain or training wheels. It is uniquely designed with a foot rest area for balancing, thereby making the transition onto a peddled bicycle quicker and seamless! Kazam Bikes teach your child to balance and increase coordination.
Material: Bike
Brand: Kazam Bikes
Origin: Imported
Skip the training wheels! We love these award-winning bikes because they teach kids how to balance, and we're excited to offer them to you for the first time. Here's how it works: Kids push the bike forward with their feet (on the ground, one after the other as in walking) then they place both feet on the center footrest and balance while they glide. Your kid will graduate to pedals in no time.

I already owned a GO Fit 55 cm stability ball, and wanted to order a 65 cm ball to have one a little bigger. I thought that I'd give Tone Fitness stability ball a try since it appeared to be rugged and has the non-slip ridges on the ball. The product arrive promptly, and it easily inflated. However, it became very obvious that even when fully inflated, that this ball wasn't even as large as my 55 cm GO Fit ball. It was supposed to be larger, but in fact, it wasn't even as large as my small stability ball. If I hadn't known any better, I probably would have kept it, but was falsely advertised to be 65 cm. Don't buy this product, because when I had a customer service representative work with me on line to return the product, it took a long time. The worst surprise came in an e-mail later after I had returned the product. Overstock.com charged me nearly half the price of the stability ball for return shipping charges!! Order GO Fit if you want excellent quality stability balls.
This ball is of horrible quality. the ball is deformed and does not hold air very well.
I wished I had done more research and bought a larger ball. Otherwise I am very satisfied and might just have two.
I had back pain for a long time and this practice ball was the answer.it comes with a practice DVD also .
achieved proper inflation with the includided pump and the workout instructions are right on. This Ball was a good buy.
Surprisingly easy to inflate, came with instruction CD that was very helpful.
very nice quality. I would tell anyone that if they need one of these here's where to get it
The package says "65cm" but the ball is "55cm". I wasted my time.
Have just inflated the Stability Ball and briefly made use of it. Appears to be quality product. Had no problem inflating it as I have seen some owners have had in other reviews. Especially good price with extra discount compared to other sites.

since modmood and RETRO Consignment has modern, contemporary and vintage 50′s and 60′s furniture, we are often asked to explain the difference between the styles. also, we will get a design client that will say they like or want modern furniture, when it is really a contemporary look they want. so…i thought i would talk today about the various differences in those three styles of furniture, furnishings and accessories.
modern furniture is generally described as a style of furniture that originated in the post-war era (mid 1900′s; 50′s, 60′s and some 70′s). these pieces have a very distinct look and design. this style was greatly influenced by the scandinavian contemporary and bauhaus movements. many of the pieces were designed by architects of the time. there are many iconic pieces from the modern era.
some examples of modern furniture:
contemporary furniture, on the other hand, is exactly what it states; current and new furnishings…what is happening now.
contemporary style (design, art, and furnishings) changes, it is dynamic with fewer rules and more open-ended applications than modern. these fewer rules and open-ended applications allow for incorporation of new and innovative materials. what was contemporary in a certain time period (such as the yellow and orange photo below) may not be contemporary in the future (photo 2). another factor that is often attributed to contemporary design but not necessarily correct is that it is very "cold". while in some instances it can be (a lot of contemporary work in the 90′s and early 00′s might have been) it is not necessarily a perquisite for a contemporary look.
currently contemporary design may incorporate organic or even mid century modern elements as seen below:
50's and 60's vintage can incorporate many looks.
if you like the mcm (mid-century modern) style then you are going to be drawn specifically to the iconic pieces of modernism developed in this time period. if you are more into the atomic style then you are going to be drawn to those items we all remember from "george jetson" era. and if you are just plain vintage you will be attracted to all those items that your grandma had in the basement…you know those things that made you wonder what grandma and grandpa did on friday night with that old bar with the great bar stools, the record player and the mountains of martini's sets. oh yeah, let's not forget that formica dinette table now in their garage.
modern furniture and vintage kitsch is static, the pieces are what the pieces are…where contemporary furniture is very dynamic and is constantly changing. you may find 70′s contemporary but it will look entirely different from 2010 contemporary.
does this explanation work? i would love to have your feed back.
