Joseph comforts his brethren, and sends for his father. (1-15) Pharaoh confirms Joseph's invitation, Joseph's gifts to his brethren. (16-24) Jacob receives the news of Joseph's being alive. (25-28)
Verses 1-15 Joseph let Judah go on, and heard all he had to say. He found his brethren humbled for their sins, mindful of himself, for Judah had mentioned him twice in his speech, respectful to their father, and very tender of their brother Benjamin. Now they were ripe for the comfort he designed, by making himself known. Joseph ordered all his attendants to withdraw. Thus Christ makes himself and his loving-kindness known to his people, out of the sight and hearing of the world. Joseph shed tears of tenderness and strong affection, and with these threw off that austerity with which he had hitherto behaved toward his brethren. This represents the Divine compassion toward returning penitents. "I am Joseph, your brother." This would humble them yet more for their sin in selling him, but would encourage them to hope for kind treatment. Thus, when Christ would convince Paul, he said, I am Jesus; and when he would comfort his disciples, he said, It is I, be not afraid. When Christ manifests himself to his people, he encourages them to draw near to him with a true heart. Joseph does so, and shows them, that whatever they thought to do against him, God had brought good out of it. Sinners must grieve and be angry with themselves for their sins, though God brings good out of it, for that is no thanks to them. The agreement between all this, and the case of a sinner, on Christ's manifesting himself to his soul, is very striking. He does not, on this account, think sin a less, but a greater evil; and yet he is so armed against despair, as even to rejoice in what God hath wrought, while he trembles in thinking of the dangers and destruction from which he has escaped. Joseph promises to take care of his father and all the family. It is the duty of children, if the necessity of their parents at any time require it, to support and supply them to the utmost of ( 1 Timothy. 5:4 ) Joseph had embraced Benjamin, he caressed them all, and then his brethren talked with him freely of all the affairs of their father's house. After the tokens of true reconciliation with the Lord Jesus, sweet communion with him follows.
Verses 16-24 Pharaoh was kind to Joseph, and to his relations for his sake. Egypt would make up the losses of their removal. Thus those for whom Christ intends his heavenly glory, ought not to regard the things of this world. The best of its enjoyments are but lumber; we cannot make sure of them while here, much less can we carry them away with us. Let us not set our eyes or hearts upon the world; there are better things for us in that blessed land, whither Christ, our Joseph, is gone to prepare a place. Joseph dismissed his brethren with a seasonable caution, "See that ye fall not out by the way." He knew they were too apt to be quarrelsome; and having forgiven them all, he lays this charge upon them, not to upbraid one another. This command our Lord Jesus has given to us, that we love one another, and that whatever happens, or has happened, we fall not out. For we are brethren, we have all one Father. We are all guilty, and instead of quarrelling with one another, have reason to fall out with ourselves. We are, or hope to be, forgiven of God, whom we have all offended, and, therefore, should be ready to forgive one another. We are "by the way," a way through the land of Egypt, where we have many eyes upon us, that seek advantage against us; a way that leads to the heavenly Canaan, where we hope to be for ever in perfect peace.
Verses 25-28 To hear that Joseph is alive, is too good news to be true; Jacob faints, for he believes it not. We faint, because we do not believe. At length, Jacob is convinced of the truth. Jacob was old, and did not expect to live long. He says, Let my eyes be refreshed with this sight before they are closed, and then I need no more to make me happy in this world. Behold Jesus manifesting himself as a Brother and a Friend to those who once were his despisers, his enemies. He assures them of his love and the riches of his grace. He commands them to lay aside envy, anger, malice, and strife, and to live in peace with each other. He teaches them to give up the world for him and his fulness. He supplies all that is needful to bring them home to himself, that where he is they may be also. And though, when he at last sends for his people, they may for a time feel some doubts and fears, yet the thought of seeing his glory and of being with him, will enable them to say, It is enough, I am willing to die; and I go to see, and to be with the Beloved of my soul.
Genesis 45:1-28 . JOSEPH MAKING HIMSELF KNOWN.
1. Then Joseph could not refrain himself--The severity of the inflexible magistrate here gives way to the natural feelings of the man and the brother. However well he had disciplined his mind, he felt it impossible to resist the artless eloquence of Judah. He saw a satisfactory proof, in the return of all his brethren on such an occasion, that they were affectionately united to one another; he had heard enough to convince him that time, reflection, or grace had made a happy improvement on their characters; and he would probably have proceeded in a calm and leisurely manner to reveal himself as prudence might have dictated. But when he heard the heroic self-sacrifice of Judah [ Genesis 44:33 ] and realized all the affection of that proposal--a proposal for which he was totally unprepared--he was completely unmanned; he felt himself forced to bring this painful trial to an end.
he cried, Cause every man to go out from me--In ordering the departure of witnesses of this last scene, he acted as a warm-hearted and real friend to his brothers--his conduct was dictated by motives of the highest prudence--that of preventing their early iniquities from becoming known either to the members of his household, or among the people of Egypt.
2. he wept aloud--No doubt, from the fulness of highly excited feelings; but to indulge in vehement and long-continued transports of sobbing is the usual way in which the Orientals express their grief.
3. I am Joseph--or, "terrified at his presence." The emotions that now rose in his breast as well as that of his brethren--and chased each other in rapid succession--were many and violent. He was agitated by sympathy and joy; they were astonished, confounded, terrified; and betrayed their terror, by shrinking as far as they could from his presence. So "troubled" were they, that he had to repeat his announcement of himself; and what kind, affectionate terms he did use. He spoke of their having sold him--not to wound their feelings, but to convince them of his identity; and then, to reassure their minds, he traced the agency of an overruling Providence, in his exile and present honor [ Genesis 35:5-7 ]. Not that he wished them to roll the responsibility of their crime on God; no, his only object was to encourage their confidence and induce them to trust in the plans he had formed for the future comfort of their father and themselves.
6. and yet there are five years, in the which there shall neither be earing nor harvest--"Ear" is an old English word, meaning "to plough" (compare 1 Samuel 8:12 , Isaiah 30:24 ). This seems to confirm the view given ( Genesis 41:57 ) that the famine was caused by an extraordinary drought, which prevented the annual overflowing of the Nile; and of course made the land unfit to receive the seed of Egypt.
14, 15. And he fell upon . . . Benjamin's neck--The sudden transition from a condemned criminal to a fondled brother, might have occasioned fainting or even death, had not his tumultuous feelings been relieved by a torrent of tears. But Joseph's attentions were not confined to Benjamin. He affectionately embraced every one of his brothers in succession; and by those actions, his forgiveness was demonstrated more fully than it could be by words.
17-20. Pharaoh said unto Joseph, Say unto thy brethren--As Joseph might have been prevented by delicacy, the king himself invited the patriarch and all his family to migrate into Egypt; and he made most liberal arrangements for their removal and their subsequent settlement. It displays the character of this Pharaoh to advantage, that he was so kind to the relatives of Joseph; but indeed the greatest liberality he could show could never recompense the services of so great a benefactor of his kingdom.
21. Joseph gave them wagons--which must have been novelties in Palestine; for wheeled carriages were almost unknown there.
22. changes of raiment--It was and is customary, with great men, to bestow on their friends dresses of distinction, and in places where they are of the same description and quality, the value of these presents consists in their number. The great number given to Benjamin bespoke the warmth of his brother's attachment to him; and Joseph felt, from the amiable temper they now all displayed, he might, with perfect safety, indulge this fond partiality for his mother's son.
23. to his father he sent--a supply of everything that could contribute to his support and comfort--the large and liberal scale on which that supply was given being intended, like the five messes of Benjamin, as a
24. so he sent his brethren away--In dismissing them on their homeward journey, he gave them this particular admonition:
See that ye fall not out by the way--a caution that would be greatly needed; for not only during the journey would they be occupied in recalling the parts they had respectively acted in the events that led to Joseph's being sold into Egypt, but their wickedness would soon have to come to the knowledge of their venerable father.

If you're reading DBSTalk and not watching the playoffs live then you probably don't care that much about football.
Couldn't disagree more. What does watching live have to do with being a football fan? You like commercials and halftime that much?
I always delay the start of sporting events. ALL sporting events, so that I can zip through commercials and skip halftime. Sometimes that means that I'm 10-15 minutes behind when the game ends.
What harm could there possibly be to have threads like this titled "Bears vs Packers: spoilers within"??
Even if it only effects ONE user, what's the harm?
It's inconsiderate, but yet it continues to happen for most sporting events. I don't understand why it happens here of all forums.

How Can Water Help you Fight Acne
Sixty percent of your body is made up of water. Water imbalance can cause serious effects to your health. It is said that a person cannot live for more than 5 days without water. In desserts however, it will only take you a day or two. Water is the most important liquid and without it, we can't live. But can water be the answer to your acne? Or do you need to find the best acne treatment?
Drinking plenty of water every day, especially if you undergo strenuous activities, is essential to ensure normal bodily functions. Without water you can feel lethargic and light headed. Aside from the fact that water is essential for our survival, water is also considered as an essential component for skin health. Water keeps your skin elastic, smooth and supple. If you don't take enough water every day, you may end up with dry skin. Dry skin are prone to blisters and cracks.
As your first line of defense, your body will do everything to make sure that the integrity of your skin is kept intact. Blisters and cuts can make you susceptible to opportunistic bacteria and infections. So in order to regulate and maintain the water content of your skin, your oil glands produce oil. The oil serves as a protective layer to keep your skin moisturized and to prevent dryness.
If you have a low water intake, your skin may become dry and as a response, more oil is produced in your sebaceous glands. The oil produced can be trapped inside your pores as dead skin cells covers the passage of the oil to the surface. When this happens, bacteria starts to multiply and before you know it, you have acne.
Individuals suffering from acne should increase their water intake to prevent skin dryness ad to regulate the production of oil in your sebaceous glands. If your skin is well hydrated, it is most likely that your oil glands will not produce that much oil.
Aside from the fact that water acts as an oil regulator, water also helps flush out the toxins in your body. Toxins can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals that are essential for skin health. With a regular water intake you can flush out this toxins allowing you to fully absorb the nutrients that you get from the food you eat.
Though water can help control acne, most often than not, drinking water is not enough to completely treat your blemishes. You need to find a reliable acne treatment that will help you remove the acne causing bacteria and prevent acne from coming back.

Enrollment at College of Marin has plummeted to the lowest level in at least a decade as students face cuts to course offerings, higher fees and a more difficult financial aid environment, officials said Tuesday.
Enrollment dropped to 6,620 students this semester, down 9.8 percent from 7,337 students in the spring semester of 2012, mirroring drops in enrollment statewide.
The enrollment dropped as the college, facing budget pressure, cut 19 courses from the schedule compared with spring 2012, continuing a trend that has shrunk the course catalogue by about 50 classes, or 6 percent in the past three years.
Such cuts, which have happened across the state, have made it harder for students to find classes, pushing some of them out of school.
"I don't know how many people who have been totally disenfranchised just because they weren't able to get in, and that's something that we really hadn't experienced before as a system," said Cari Torres, interim dean of instruction for College of Marin.
Spring enrollment figures for California were not yet available Tuesday, but as of this fall statewide enrollment had dropped by nearly 500,000 students over four years and courses were cut by nearly 25 percent, according to the California Community Colleges Chancellor's Office.
While College of Marin has fared better than many of its peers in California, its revenues have suffered from stagnant property values. The college began the school year with a $2.2 million deficit in a $70.1 million budget. Officials are working to cut several million dollars in the next few years.
Lance Reyes, a third-year engineering student who serves as president of College of Marin Associated Students, said he has not had difficulties enrolling in classes but many of his classmates have.
"I know the school is doing the best they can," he said. "But at some point, there are just too many students vying for the same class."
Students have also been hit with huge fee increases across the state. The annual cost for a full-time student is at least $1,104, well over double the cost of $480 four years ago.
"To some people that might seem like a little bit of money, but there is a good population of people who that is a lot of money to," said Scott Blood, a political science student and the student representative on the College of Marin Board of Trustees. "It could be prohibitive to a lot of people, and I think we might forget that."
In addition to the fee increases, students seeking financial aid have been hit with changes, including higher academic targets for students receiving federal Pell grants. At College of Marin, some 586 students were denied financial aid this semester because of poor grades, officials said.
"Five years ago financial aid applicants represented about 20 percent of our student population," financial aid director David Cook said in a statement. "Now they represent close to 80 percent of our student population."

Importing Real football | Beckham adds his share to U.S. trade imbalance
Carson, California, Jan 22 | The bridge metaphor has become prominent with the Los Angeles Galaxy's signing of David Beckham from Real Madrid. "David is truly the only individual that can build the bridge between soccer in America and the rest of the world," says Timothy Leiweke, president of Anschutz Entertainment Group, which owns the Galaxy.
Such brainless marketing patter deservedly sinks into the well of words that has accumulated about this player transfer of global insignificance.

Very Good Cut:
A Very Good Cut diamond has very strict requirements for this category, representing diamonds in the top 15% based on cut quality though for a price much less than Ideal Cut.
D Color:
D Color Diamonds are known as either 'colorless' or 'exceptionally white'. These diamonds are truly amongst the most stunning and brilliant diamonds available. Their rarity adds to their beauty as it does the cost.
SI1 Clarity:
Small Inclusions 1. The SI1 diamonds have a few small flaws, visible only using a x10 magnification by experienced gemologists. These flaws are almost imperceptible to the naked eye making them an increasingly popular choice for diamond engagement rings.
Free Appraisal |
...Of the dozens of on-line diamond jewelry web-sites I perused, Diamonds-USA had by far the best selection of diamonds and ring settings, and the best prices.

Product Number: | HO45177BAG |
Item Price: | $22.99 $21.99 |
Availability: | In Stock |
Shipping Weight: | 3.76 lbs. |
Full Metal Jacket handgun bullets have long served as a standard for target shooting applications. Hornady® FMJs are built with a rugged jacket unlike those of so many of our competitors – and the difference in performance is clear. The thin plated full metal jacket from other manufacturers is easily distorted and often breaks or separates when the bullet impacts the target. The Hornady® FMJ features a heavier jacket, and punches into targets without deforming or breaking the jacket. Hornady® FMJ bullets are carefully designed and manufactured to give superior functioning in semi-automatic handguns, and they deliver match-grade accuracy!
Expansion isn't an issue in action pistol shooting, so we removed the expansion-aiding features like the skives and cannelure. The result is a bullet that delivers the accuracy its sleek appearance promises.
A jam can cost the match for a competitive shooter, and that's why our copper jacket protects the nose of our HAP bullet. The design ensures smooth feeding every time.
The core of the HAP bullet is cold swaged from pure lead to deliver consistency, balance and stability in flight. It delivers peak, pinpoint accuracy with every shot.
The copper jacket protects the nose and ensures a smooth and quick feed into your gun.

Thank you.
I hope you get this message.Comments welcome.
Being an old fart also,
I have to disagree with you.
Pink Floyd is the best... Roger Waters being the star.
Other wise, the biggest band is an ebb and flow.
Right now it is
The Doors keep being relevant with their timeless music and fans than many bands before and after them.
Aren't 'The Beatles' the most successful band ever? People never shut the fuck up about them. The Backstreet Boys are one of the most successful boy bands as well.
None of them can compete with 1D of course.

"We use these types of reports as a tool to help identify research that needs to be done," she said. "We are issuing our annual call for research proposals Friday (Feb. 1) so this timing works well."
The CDC researchers estimate 9.6 million annual illnesses related to foods. For analysis purposes, they split produce into subgroups of:
- fruits-nuts;
- fungi;
- leafy vegetables;
- root vegetables;
- sprouts; and
- vine-stalk vegetables (tomatoes, cucumbers, etc.)
The data shows leafy vegetables were associated with more illnesses than any other single commodity with 2.1 million cases estimated annually. That represents 23% of the annual foodborne illnesses the CDC estimates are caused by food.
Means pointed to the Leafy Greens Marketing Agreement as an example of how that segment of the industry has aggressively addressed food safety. She also cited the Produce Traceability Initiative as another move by industry to enhance food safety.
Chief executive officer of the LGMA Scott Horsfall posted a statement on the organization's website in response to the CDC's report. He said that 99% of leafy greens grown in California are covered by the agreement and that many foodborne illness outbreaks come from contamination introduced after fresh produce has left the farm.
"According to this report, Norovirus is responsible for 57% of foodborne illness cases; this particular pathogen is almost always spread via food handling after the produce leaves the farm," Horsfall's statement says.
After leafy vegetables, the commodities linked to the most illnesses were dairy with an estimated 1.3 million illnesses representing 14% of the total, and fruits/nuts with 1.2 million illnesses representing 12% of the total.
The CDC researchers concluded that an estimated 629 food-related deaths annually, or 43%, are linked to land animals. All plants, which includes the produce subgroups and grains, beans, sugars and oils, accounted for 363 deaths, or 25%. About 94 deaths, or 6%, were linked to aquatic commodities.
Meat-poultry commodities accounted for 29% of deaths and produce accounted for 23%, the CDC reported. Poultry accounted for the most deaths at 19%, followed by dairy at 10%, vine-stalk vegetables at 7%, fruits/nuts at 6%, and leafy vegetables at 6%.

RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.We searched every rug site imagineable and finally found yours. The prices were great and this rug is beautiful. We purchased the rug in black and while the flowers look green they are really leaning toward a grey color. Just an FYI.....However we still loved the rug.

All in all we are very pleased with our purchase.

RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.I paid a lot for this rug and it sheds worse than a dog!!
RECOMMENDED: No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Post subject: Town Hall Meeting Forum
This thread is for me to Propagandize and answer any questions folks may have in regards to what my plans are if elected to lead the club next year.
Answering a few questions off the bat:
I would like to see the club create more opportunities to raise funds for course development in the area. Course opportunities like Sister City Park and Mink Creek. To do this, we will likely hold a couple of odd tourneys in the area as well as any other odd-ball ideas that we can think up.
I will get the ball rolling on a club sanctioned Bag Tag Challenge for 2009. Specifics to follow later, but in essence, half the money raised will go to course development and community involvement.
I would like to see the SIMS continue. In order to do this, we will have to all step up. I believe the job of the President is not to run tourneys, but to encourage and promote the growth of the sport and the club in tournament play. I would encourage folks interested in being TD's or organizers to try to run a SIMS event.
I would like to work ith local disc vendors so that the club disc sales are not so much of a direct competition. The club should partner with these vendors and work to encourage competitive business in disc and equipment sales.
Any questions anyone may have, please post them here and I'll do my best to ansewr them. Thank you all.

Post subject: taxes and fees
I am a middling class golfer thinking about moving up to the open division. Since I did not have significant earnings in 2008 I have paid relatively few taxes and club fees.
I plan to win every open event offered in 2009 and have cash earning in the hundreds of dollars.
How would your platform change my bottom line? What fee changes would be associated with your proposals?
Sincerely Joe

As the club will not be collecting taxes based on winning percentage or income, the bottom line of middle class winnings should not change at all. Now, winning every event would come with some sort of luxury tax. So be advised.
To further illustrate my plan, I would like to tell you a story of a young disc golfer I met in Pocatello. He was worried about losing his Wasp in the woods out at Bengal. He wanted to know what I was going to do to prevent him from losing his discs up there. I told him not to throw any discs into the woods, or stop playing Bengal.
Although this story lacks any relevance, it also lacks truth. Vote for me.

Austin, if you were president, what would about distance dispartity? Could there be assistance from the club?
I suggest that every person who throws above 300 feet be charged a "distance tax" of 15 feet. Those who throw above 400 feet would be charged 30 feet. The extra distance could be redistributed amongst the lesser gifted players. If you include this policy in your platform, I'd be willing to support your candidacy.
I'm also concerned about cougars on the courses. Can we get a guarantee that you will irradicate/relocate all cougars on the courses? Who will you put on cougar patrol? What kind of cougar killing/relocating experience have they had in the past? I don't just want some cronny in the job who's never skinned a cat.

As President, I cannot vow to protect the minority over the majority. As those of us who throw over 300 feet generally miss our putts, thsoe of you who throw less than 300 feet should not feel threatened. I will never tax anyone (except Lance) for playing too well.
As for Cougars, I will pass around a sign-up sheet for anyone interested in patrolling the course. As this sheet will almost certainly come back empty, I would explore other avenues. As I am not an authorized Fish and Game officer, I cannot do anything to move said cougars. So that leaves me with one option.
Stop kicking cougars.
If you don't kick them in the side, they won't try to bite you.
The sheer fact that I have taken the time to respond to these questions in great detail is indicative of the amount of time and energy I am willing to commit to club goings-on. Vote for me.

Oh, cougars as in big wild flesh eating cats. I was thinking the other kind of cougars and was trying to figure out why Casey was experiencing such profound problems with them.
On another election note I think the recent forum posts have shown that there are a number of folks that are suffering from long term injuries that are disc golf related. What kind of health care plan do you propose and how are we going to pay for it?
I also would like to know what kind of stimulus package the new president would authorize for my failing 'putt making factory'. business has been bad in the 15-30 foot market and has almost dropped to zero in the 40-50 foot market segment. Only the 10 foot an in range has been seeing any kind of steady numbers.
Look at the size of that pill, I can't swallow that.
Good news everybody! it's a suppository.

I am not a firm believer in government regulation of health care or business. Frankly, the only reason the club sould propogate a health plan is if we mandate that every member have one. If you'd like me to provide a health plan option for members, then here it is:
Monthly fee = $10
No charge for medical services administered by me or my LPN student wife. However, be warned, my medical care is relatively simple. If your arm hurts, use the other one or stop crying. If you break a bone, go home and rest until it stops hurting. If your sick, I won't care.
Anyone who would like to pay me $10 a month for this amazing benefits package can catch me at the club meeting and I will gladly set you up.
The stimulus package thing. Lance, I will never give you any stimulus package to improve your putting in order for you to beat me more soundly. If you can't make your putt factory produce, then I guess it's going under so that a stronger putt factory can take over the market. (Darwinism in business. Get stronger or get eaten.)
Anyone who has any other creative questions can post here. I know Lance is a post-Bully, and that most of you are likely enjoying this little banter of a thread, but I know some of you have some really interesteing questions. Vote for me.

Are we still thinking of changing the club name?
Would we also change the website? seeing how it is PVDGC.org
Are we going to work out some type of logo? Shirts, hats, sign for tournaments the club hosts.
How much are we thinking of raising the club fee? Does that cost include the bag tag or will it be separate? If the cost is separate can you get a bag tag without being a club member?
Just some stuff i was wondering about other than Lance's putting game

pole vaulter.... Thanks fo asking a real question! This is all good fun Im sure, but I am worried about the club. Brandon does so much as the Prez and the local TD. I know you said that you didnt want to be a TD so.......
This post is funny to read but lets get serious for a second!
What are you going to do to help the club as Brandon has in the past? Is the SIMS done? Why do you want to be the PREZ and not a TD? Who will step up to run the tornys? Will TD be another elected position?
The club is in trouble with out our leader Brandon. I am worried about the future of Disc Golf in South East Idaho!!!

Alright, this is going to be a huge post, since I have something like a dozen questions to answer.
1) Club fees will go up, as previously proposed. How much will have to be discussed a little further before a decision is made. This is something I would like the Treasurer to be involved with when they are elected so together, we can propose a change.
2) I have always supported a name change. If you guys want me to be President, I will bring the top four or five names from the thread Mook ran a while ago to a club meeting and we can vote as a club on that.
3) I don't think changing the website should be endeavoured now. I think a new name would be cosmetic in nature. It'd be something like "Potato Rollers, a Portneuf Valley Disc Golf Club." This would mean we could all go as Potato Rollers, but the meat of the name is unchanged. I can explain this more in person at the winter meeting.
4) I would love to see us as a club get a logo and some merchandise. That is something I will explore after the winter meeting, but before the Spring meeting. Again, explaining this in great detail on a thread is not easy, so bring your questions to the meeting Dec 17th
5) The Bag Tag fees and such have not even been close to hashed out yet. That whole event is in planning still, but I will work with the elected Treasurer to get that plan ironed out and finished.
6) As far as tourneys go, I will say it again. I don't think it is the president's job to run and organize tourneys. I would be willing to organize and facilitate tournaments. But, I am not going to run every SIMS event and fundraiser and bag tag and league. It is time for the club members to assist in running some events. Again, I will help organize and facilitate (sponsors, courses, etc.), but actually running the tourney will need to be a volunteer or two.
7) TD is Tournament Director. Tourneys are run separately from the club. TD is not an elected position. This year, TD's included Mook, Kerry, Mr. Locke. Each tournament will have it's own TD. I don't know who is going to step up to run these events. The club was spoiled in Mook when he was both TD and Prez. These two jobs are designed to be separate unless the candidates want to do both, which Mook did.
I know many of you can and want to run tourneys. I know many of you want to play in tourneys. I am offering my assistance in your pusuit of running these events. I encourage interested people to run a tourney. You won't be doing it alone. If you're worried about the sport's future in Idaho, let me do something about it. My job as president will be to further the sport of disc golf in Southeast Idaho through community outreach, sponsorship, and tournament involvement. Specifics to that duty will come up on an individual basis.
The last thing I want to say in this particular post is, this is a GAME we all play. Never let politics and agendas interfere with that. I will do my absolute best to do nothing that jeopardizes the game we play by adding unneeded hassles like politics and personal agendas.

To all who read this post:
Remember, As the club grows, struggles and over-comes, we are all in this together! With or without a President, TD or Financial Officer. In one way or another we are ALL part of the solution! Mook set a great example! As many have stated, we all want to achive and create more on-top of where Mook left off. Unity is a great place to start!
So as Austin and others step up to be the front runners of the club, they all should know we are behind them! Supporting them! And we are all here to help grow the Sport. Whether it is playing with people you have never played with before or gathering sponsors and setting examples to our community!
So with that said, I am here to Help, Support and Grow the Sport!

Some departing thoughts. Yes, this is a game, but I know I am not the only one passionate about this sport. Its a very real and pleasurable part of my life. I can tell you that the club has never been successful without the support of its club members. Disc golf in Southeast Idaho goes much deeper than Mook. I don't think that any one person would or could do as much as I have done and given this last year, but I know that a club as a whole can pick up all the piece's I leave behind.
It was never mine nor the club's purpose or goal to have one person run everything. Nor do I believe that its the President's job to run TD's, but if you are not running them, you better be delegating some club members who will. Most of you who have known me know that I was a TD 1st and President 2nd. I know that Austin will not stand aside while others do all the work. I've known him for too long to believe that.
If you read throughout the forums in past you will find invitations by me for anyone to come and assist me at a tournament and "learn the ropes". I have the upmost confidence from the club members that the SIMS will continue on and will be run by many different members. That will be a fulfillment of my goal. Anyone who is willing to run an event whether it be a SIMS events, Ace race, one disc, pdga, doubles, or whatever will have the support of the club. They will also have my support. I would be glad to offer my assistance to any event I can attend and would be glad to give you the TD excel file I have created. All you have to do is enter the names of the registrants and it does the rest for you.
My last piece of advice is, please do not bite more than you can chew. The bag tags, logos, name change, web changes, course installments, and any other increased club benefits will come in time. Take it one step at a time.
What a great opportunity it is NOW to become a PVDGC President with all the players and support we have NOW. You don't have to give it the time that I gave. Remember, for the last 6 months I haven't had a job! You also have club members willing to help out 1000% more now than I did on day 1. I urge you that if you are concerned about the club in 2009, get involved.
I look forward to seeing you all at the meeting!

It's surprising to me that a forum topic developed for Austin to...
"Propagandize and answer any questions folks may have in regards to what my plans are if elected to lead the club next year."
...has become a joke. I'm with Novosel "worried about the club." I hope we have a good treasurer next year because it sounds like they will be responsible for a lot. The answers to all of my questions sounded like: i'll discuss that with the treasurer, we'll work that out later, someone else will TD. 2009, next year is only a little over a month away. When are we going to hash all this out?You say you'll work on promoting the sport and getting sponsership, but when that time comes are you going to pawn that off too?
I've thought about being an officer, but i'm not getting involved because i'm not sure if i will be here this summer. and after reading this "Hilarious" forum, i'm not sure if i even want to be part of the club next year. Going solo is starting to look better and better to me. I'm afraid the club is heading the direction of this forum. From semi serious to a joke

I don't know when know when banter and laughter meant that we as a club somehow became inept. We laugh and joke about things because that is who most of us are. The reason Lance was posting fun questions and I was answering was because NO ONE ELSE was posting anything. If you wanted serious questions answered before the jokes started flying, you should have posted something. I don't mean to be too sharp here, but this is something that needs to be said.
Mook and Noah are right. WE ALL NEED TO STEP UP AND BE A PART OF THIS CLUB THIS SEASON. I know we will. The President and Treasurer together are the lead team in this club. I believe that two heads are better than one. Mook and Lance worked together on a lot of things for the club. That is what the Treasurer and I will do. So yes, if you want to be Treasurer, be ready to lead. Because I will NEED the help. And so will the club.
In closing, I don't know all the answers to all of your questions. What I have given you thus far (with the exception of Lance's and Mr. Locke's questions) have been my honest answers. I don't know the details now. I will have a lot of plans by the time the Club meeting in December happens. If you'd like me to be president, that is where I can speak. As I said before, posting on an internet website about all the details of my plan would be incredibly difficult. At the meeting, I promise, I will have more details for you about events and fees that I would propose.
Mark, your note is well received. I believe a Hummer or a truck like yours would suffice for a secure motorcade. I'll leave that to you to figure out the funding.
God is happiest when His children are at play, so PLAY.

2011 Venice Film Festival Boasts Clooney, Cronenberg and 'Contagion'
Film Festivals By Kate Erbland on July 28, 2011 | Be the First To CommentConsidering how much I like striped shirts, pasta, and films from controversial Greek directors, it looks like I may need to stow away in someone's suitcase and get over to Italy next month for the 68th Venice Film Festival. The fest, which runs from August 31 to September 10, has just released their lineup for the year, and I may be speaking out of my macaroni here, but this batch of films really wets my noodle. Nathan already reported last month that George Clooney's The Ides of March was likely to join the festival, and today's announcement confirms that twofold – Ides will not only show at the festival, it will serve as opening night film. Other good stuff here includes Tomas Alfredson's Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy (which has one of my favorite trailers of the year), Roman Polanski's adaptation of play God of Carnage (shortened to Carnage), Ami Canaan Mann's Texas Killing Fields, David Cronenberg's A Dangerous Method, Steve McQueen's Shame, Todd Solondz's Dark Horse, Madonna's W.E., Steven Soderbergh's Contagion, and Dogtooth director Yorgos Lanthimos's Alps. In short terms, this is an incredible lineup of films that I cannot even remotely snark on, because I would probably do something violent if it meant I could go to the festival. Check out the full list of films after the break.

Now on its third generation, the CitiZ, one of Nespresso's most popular single-serve espresso machines, has gone eco friendly while retaining its iconic retro-modern good looks.

At first glance, the Nespresso CitiZ looks like it belongs on the set of an old Hollywood movie. The retro design is heavily influenced by urban architecture from the 30s and 40s, but look under the hood and the machine's technology is as modern and they come. The CitiZ is made to work with Nespresso's single-serve capsules, giving you the ability to brew tasty, aromatic drinks with the push of a button.

Tim Lincecum has been called The Freak and The Franchise. In this ad for ESPN, he calls himself The Freaky Franchise. I have to disagree with him. I think the Giants organization is the Freaky Franchise around here.
The only thing you can say after a game like Wednesday's is: fluke. Sure, we got creamed, 13-1 (letting in 6 homers, which we haven't done since the 90s), but we had also just come off a spectacular 12th inning win against the NL West leaders. It happens. What I actually want to talk about is the weirdness we've been seeing all season from the Giants. And I'm going to single out Brian Wilson.
Let me preface this all by saying I am a serious B-Weezite. (I know what B-Weez is, to start with.) He's my favorite Giant, hands down and I cheer every time they put him in the 'pen. But there has been some serious weirdness from him this year.
How about two days in a row, with two outs, bottom 9, he faces the same person with the winning run on base? Granted, the fact that it's the same batter is not his fault (I think the Astro's were trying to psych him out) but he did put the winning runner on. And then letting in the two insurance runs against SD in the 12th? (Secretly, that made me a little happy because it made Velez, my second favorite Giant, a hero, but that's beside the point.) The weirdest thing about this all is that Wilson has pitched over 100 pitches in the past week or so and not blown a save. Now is that making things hard for yourself or what? Wilson is walking a fine line here, but he hasn't fallen on the wrong side yet. And when it matters, he gets the job done.
I honestly have no explanation. I just had to put it out there. Thoughts, anyone? Comment and let me know.
In the meantime, show some orange and black pride in Oakland this weekend, if you're in the area. We're having a Bay Bridge series. I'll be rooting for Zito tonight, as he takes the mound of his old home, and thanking my lucky stars he won't be in an orange jersey. Orange is just not his color. (Have you heard about the thing with the orange retro jerseys on Friday night home games? More on that another time.)
I love you, Brian Wilson. Work it out, for the sake of my poor, over-stressed, over-Gianted heart. Thank you.

The Good Morning America host talks about her breast cancer diagnosis, how she overcame depression, and finding new balance in her life.
Robin Roberts is mad. This is not a facial expression that viewers who watch her on ABC's Good Morning America, where she is coanchor, see, ever. Roberts, 50, is known—and loved—for her gently upbeat on-air style, sometimes playful but always even-keeled pleasantness, whether she's interviewing LeAnn Rimes or Hillary Clinton, whether she's driving an Indy 500 pace car or riding an elephant.
But today, across a lunch table not far from the ABC studio and offices, she is mad, as she discusses some of the struggles she—a breast cancer survivor—and many other women face in getting cancer diagnosed and treatments covered by insurance companies.
In late 2009, there was a firestorm over an independent panel's recommendation—now very much contested—that women in their forties should stop having mammograms, and women fifty to seventy-four should have one only every other year. What's more, the panel recommended against self-exams because "there's no benefit." Here's what Roberts had to say about skipping self-exams and more in an exclusive interview with Prevention's Editor-in-Chief, Diane Salvatore.
Diane Salvatore: You, of course, found your lump in your forties and in a self-exam. Your reaction?
[She furrows her brow and purses her lips, as if about to burst.]
DS: You look like you're editing yourself.
Robin Roberts: Oh, I am, because I could let the expletives fly. I found my lump in a self-exam! Because I was familiar with my body and the lumps, I knew this one felt different. It was in a different place on my breast, and it was hard. If I hadn't been doing self-exams, I wouldn't have known that.
DS: You've talked about the fact that the mammogram you had immediately after you found your own lump did not show a tumor. Did you have a digital mammogram or a regular film mammogram?
RR: I can't recall. I know I do digital mammograms now because I know how much better they are.
DS: Do you believe ultrasound should be a first screening tool in women who are considered high risk?
RR: I think it depends on your body type and your age. I know it's more expensive. But I just feel that for certain women—women who are younger and who have dense breast tissue—it's necessary. I remember that my doctor didn't see anything on my mammogram after I found the lump. He had already ordered an ultrasound, so I did it right then. And I remember looking at the screen as the technician was doing it and saying, "Ooh, that doesn't look good." And then my doctor came in and did the needle biopsy.
DS: Insurance companies often push back on ultrasound as a first line of defense.
RR: They pushed back with me! Not on the ultrasound but about different things during my coverage. And nine times out of ten, if I called, they would change it and cover it. I got to know my insurance company very well.
DS: Would you call and say, "This is Robin Roberts from GMA"?
RR: I had a designee who knew who I was. But I didn't want special treatment.
DS: Do you think they worried that you would have called them out on the show if they didn't do the right thing by you?
RR: I would have! That's part of the reason I [went public]. I'm very blessed—I have good health care, a great job. But my mother kept saying, "You're not the norm. So be the voice for those people who don't have it as good as you do."

Ware was shot by L.M. Birge in front of her home late Tuesday morning.
After further investigation, the sheriff's department discovered that Ware and Birge's daughter, whose name was unknown by Sherriff Kelvin Williams, got into an altercation when Birge became involved.
According to the sheriff, Ware's mother, Santonia Crowe, tried to stop Birge and was hit in the face with the gun.
Williams said it was speculated that Ware was pregnant when she was killed, however, the Mississippi Crime Lab confirmed that she was not.
Williams said Birge has been charged with first-degree murder and aggravated assault.
During his initial court appearance Thursday morning, Birge was given a $500,000 bond and remains incarcerated.
Williams said his officers are still investigating the reasoning behind the shooting.
The Bolivar Commercial will have more as the story develops.

My new favorite floral
I was exhausted: too much overtime...moving...and then had a flat tire! So that night I treated myself to a bath with my Temple Tree Bubble Bath, which I had been saving for a special occasion. Talk about an out-of-this-world experience--I have never felt so soothed, so surrounded by my favorite fragrances in exquisite balance, so pampered ... A friend who rarely remarks on scent commented that he really loved the way his entire home smelled beautiful after my bath. Thank you!!!

My Blastoise is now at level 54 and easily defeated Blaine (although Gengar helped Blastoise out a little bit). I now have to face Blue. I think I will be fine against him, i just need to raise up my Blastoise a bit more and I should be fine.

Pick-your-fruit crisp
Berries, peaches, nectarines, plums — fresh summer fruits are one of the delights of the warm season. Simple fruit crisps or crumbles that let the flavor of the fruit shine through make great desserts when you want something a little more complicated than plain fruit, and one good recipe will take you through from stone fruits to apple harvest.
What's the difference between a crisp and a crumble? While some people say that crisps incorporate nuts or oatmeal, making them, well, crisper than crumbles, which are topped with softer streusel, really the terms are pretty much synonymous. "Crisp" is more commonly used in the U.S., while "crumble" is the British term for these homey baked desserts.
Use any combination of predominantly light and some dark fruits, such as peaches with raspberries or blackberries; nectarines with cherries or blueberries.
There's no need to peel the peaches. Many nutrients — and flavor — lie just below the outer skin.
The filling will set up as the crisp cools, becoming firmer.
Pick-your-fruit crisp
Prep: 20 minutes
Cook: 30 minutes
Servings: 8
4 cups sliced peaches, in 1/2-inch wide pieces
2 cups blueberries
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
7 tablespoons (76 grams) date sugar or maple sugar
1/3 cup and 2 tablespoons (68 grams) whole wheat pastry flour
1/4 teaspoon each: sea salt, grated nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 cup slivered almonds
3 tablespoons cold, nonhydrogenated margarine
1. Heat the oven to 375 degrees. Place the peaches and blueberries in a bowl. Sprinkle the almond extract over the fruit; stir lightly. Add 3 tablespoons date sugar, 2 tablespoons flour and 1/8 teaspoon salt; stir to combine. Pour mixture into an 8-inch square glass baking pan. Smooth the top.
2. Mix together remaining 1/4 cup date sugar, remaining 1/3 cup flour, remaining 1/8 teaspoon salt, nutmeg, cinnamon and almonds in a bowl. Cut in the margarine with a pastry blender or 2 knives until the chunks are the size of peas. Sprinkle the mixture over the fruit.
3. Bake until the fruit is bubbling and the topping is golden brown, 30-35 minutes.

Jennifer Lawrence's Miss Dior Campaign Is Finally Here!
Oscar nominee and Golden Globe winner Jennifer Lawrence is having a pretty awesome year. Last October, the star of The Hunger Games and Silver Linings Playbook was tapped to be Dior's newest face—and now, just days before the Academy Awards, her first print campaign for the fashion house has finally dropped. And boy, does girlfriend look good.
Photographed by Willy Vanderperre and styled by Olivier Rizzo, J. Law wears some of Raf Simons' elegant suiting and minimalist dresses for the label, accessorized with Dior's quilted handbags and the occasional veil. All the images are stunning, of course, but we're particularly obsessed with the shot of Jennifer looking over her shoulder, her face framed by an oversized bow. Abercrombie ads, these most certainly are not.
Click through to see her entire campaign. We can't wait to see which of Simons' designs the actress will choose on Sunday night!

Budget & Taxes
Our country is in dire financial straits, and out of control spending under the Obama Administration has added trillions of dollars to the deficit. A balanced budget is the only way for us to avoid a debt crisis, give businesses the certainty they need so they can plan, invest, and give families peace of mind.
From the time I entered Congress in 2001, I have firmly believed that no nation has ever taxed itself to prosperity and Congress must set policies that keep our economy competitive. Hard working Americans know how to manage, save, and spend their money better than faceless bureaucrats continually spending and wasting those dollars. I am focused on keeping more money in the pockets of working Americans instead of sending those hard-earned dollars to Washington.
- DC has a Spending Problem: Unfortunately, while House Republicans have worked hard to provide leadership and real solutions to our nation's economic and fiscal challenges, President Obama and Senate Democrats have refused to address the problem of spending that will only lead us further into national debt. Congress must address the spending problem in DC. It cannot be ignored and denied any longer.
- Obamacare is Killing Small Business: Americans need health care reform that will lower costs for families without growing the size of government and without placing undue burden on American businesses. Congress must start over with a system that contains costs, preserves patient choice, and maintains the high quality of care unmatched around the world.
- Taxes kill a Vibrant Economy: Across the board, on issues such as "Cap and Trade" legislation, commonly known as national energy tax, to federal budgets proposing the largest tax increases in history, to bloated "stimulus" plans that fail to create jobs while expanding federal bureaucracies, Democrats are simply spending too much, taxing too much, and borrowing too much. The tax burden on the American citizen MUST be lowered if we are serious about growing the economy.
- Social Security and Medicare must be Protected: The Social Security Board of Trustees estimates that by approximately 2042 the Social Security Trust Fund will be depleted. Extending the life of Social Security indefinitely should be a forefront issue for every public policy maker. I believe it is irresponsible not to take action to prevent these alarming estimates from becoming intolerable facts. I welcome this debate and look forward to an honest discussion of ideas about how we may strengthen and improve this vital program for the future so it is there for our children and grandchildren.
