Fall 2014 is the beginning of the shmita (Sabbatical) year, when according to biblical law the land of Israel must lie fallow. Shmita reminds us that it is incumbent upon us to treat the earth with care, reverence, and humility. If we honor those practices and translate them into the ways we live our lives and interact with those at the margins, we can truly transform our community.
Incubating Ideas and Cultivating Connections: The Greenhouse of Ein Shemer helps us examine the agricultural themes of shmita, and serves as an introduction to The Greenhouse of Ein Shemer, Israel, a remarkable place of learning, growth, and innovation. Through the recreation of many of the Greenhouse's living walls alongside photographs by the renowned photographer Frédéric Brenner, Incubating Ideas and Cultivating Connections strives to remind us of a core lesson of shmita: The earth does not belong to us; we are merely its stewards.

Off Label is an examination of boundaries between the sacred and the mundane, between tradition and innovation. The work of Dov Abramson and Ken Goldman reside within the often uncomfortable, sometime humorous place, of contradiction. This exhibit features sculpture, photography, and video.
21 photographers were paired with 21 people with Spinal Cord Injury (SCI).
The participants for the project live across the country and have a range of abilities, interests, ages, and backgrounds.
This collection of visual storytelling highlights the real lives of people with SCI and aims to start conversations, change attitudes, and empower people to work on goals like increasing access to housing, employment, education, and recreation for people with disabilities.
Reinventing the Wheel is a project of BACKBONES, an organization that provides one-on-one peer support for people with spinal cord injuries and their families nationwide through phone, in-person, or web-based connections. The organization was founded in Chicago in 2009 by Reveca Torres, who suffered a spinal cord injury in a car accident at the age of 13 in 1995.
Reinventing the Wheel tells stories about family, like that of a mother who has SCI whose child is 5 years old, and stories about strength, like that of a young man who is returning to college after his SCI. Reinventing the Wheel is about ability.
Reinventing the Wheel is part of the ReelAbilities: NY Disabilities Film Festival.
Alina and Jeff Bliumis are New York-based conceptual artists who use artistic initiatives to start public dialogues about the politics of community, cultural displacement, migration, and national identity.
Casual Conversations is a two-part project that the couple started on July 7, 2007, in Brighton Beach, Brooklyn. In the early morning hours, the couple asked 45 beachgoers in this predominantly Russian neighborhood to define their identity. Each participant could pose with any of three signs (with the words "Russian," "Jewish," and "American") or come up with their own self-definition by creating a unique sign. This event was photographed. What resulted is an anthropological inquiry into this Brooklyn immigrant community.
The second part of Casual Conversations is an interactive station that allows our community to answer questions about our own cultural identity. Alina and Jeff ask that each participant think about their identity and write descriptive words of their choosing on the white boards and then take their own photograph. These portraits can be seen here .
More on Jeff and Alina Bliumis can be found here.
Casual Conversations is exhibited in partnership with Generation R at The JCC in Manhattan and is made possible in part by a gift from Genesis Philanthropy Group.
Gallery exhibitions made possible in part with a generous grant from the Laurie M. Tisch Illumination Fund.
Sol LeWitt: Shaping Ideas is a consideration of the artist's deep understanding of surface and depth, color and form. It aims to contextualize Wall Drawing #599: Circles 18" (45 cm) wide, from the center of the wall, with alternating white, yellow; white, red; and white, blue bands, installed in the lightwell at the JCC's lobby entry. The exhibition represents a variety of media with works dating from 1975 to 2005. Highlights include preparatory drawings for a synagogue in Chester, Connecticut, and for his Lost Voices project (2005), in Stommeln, Germany, both on public view for the first time. The exhibition's works on paper, including the artist's seminal Lincoln Center poster, reflect LeWitt's continued use of drawings and prints to work out ideas through his career.
LeWitt was also a steadfast advocate for expanded access to art, committed to bringing art beyond museums and galleries and into public space. In addition to sculptures in public plazas in many cities across the globe, New York is home to a large number of public artworks. Shaping Ideas features an interactive map designed in conjunction with cultureNOW that highlights the many LeWitt wall drawings in Manhattan public spaces.
The JCC is grateful to The LeWitt Estate, which has loaned a large number of works in the exhibition, and has provided Wall Drawing #599 to us on long-term loan.
To learn more about Wall Drawing #599 please visit us at jccmanhattan.org/sol_lewitt.
In 1936, Rudi Weissenstein, a 26-year-old photographer, emigrated from Czechoslovakia to Palestine with little more than 10 lire and his camera. In his adopted home Weissenstein documented everything from the settlers' way of life to the incredible landscapes of the Negev. In 1940, he and his wife, Miriam, opened Pri-Or Photohouse, a photo studio at 30 Allenby Street in Tel-Aviv. Weissenstein's work in documenting the development of Tel Aviv is unparalleled. After a struggle to preserve this incredible archive of Israeli history, the shop is still open today, managed by Rudi and Miriam's grandson, Ben Peter, and located at 5 Tchernichovsky Street.
This exhibit, which features 42 of Weissenstein's images, takes its name, Your Fortunate Eyes, from a Goethe quote that Weissenstein's widow, Miriam, selected for his tombstone: You, fortunate eyes, All you've seen, there, Let it be as it may, Yet it was so fair!
Join Us for the Opening Reception and a Film Screening of Life in Stills!
Life in Stills (Ha-Tzalmania) Old Tel Aviv meets new Tel Aviv in this award-winning documentary.

When the shop becomes destined for demolition, Miriam and her grandson Ben embark on a heart-wrenching journey to save the shop and the photo-negatives that document Israel's defining moments.

As a fashion photographer in NYC, Milan and Paris, Positive Exposure's Rick Guidotti worked for a variety of clients including Yves St Laurent, Revlon, L'Oreal, Elle, Harper's Bazaar and GQ. But a chance encounter on a Manhattan street in 1997 changed everything. Rick explains: "I was always told who was beautiful, who the 'model of the moment' was and who I had to photograph. It was so frustrating to follow someone else's idea of beauty. As an artist, I saw beauty everywhere. One afternoon I spotted a young woman waiting for a bus on Park Avenue. She was stunning. She didn't have pigmentation in her eyes, hair or skin. She had ALBINISM. I had just come from this huge casting for a client where I saw every model in town but not one of them looked like this gorgeous kid. I had never met a model like this before. I knew that she was defnitely not included in the parameters of the beauty standard. I ran to a local bookstore to understand more about albinism, but found only negative images full of sadness, despair, loneliness, isolation and disease. I then found images of many other genetic conditions where kids in their underwear were up against walls in doctors' offices, looking sick and scared with black bars across their eyes. Where was the humanity in any of these images' Where was this beautiful girl's photograph'"
This exhibition celebrates 15 years of Positive Exposure. Founded by Rick Guidotti and Diane McLean, MD, PhD, MPH, Positive Exposure is a highly innovative arts organization working with individuals living with genetic, physical, cognitive and behavioral differences. Through vigorous cross-sector partnerships with health advocacy organizations, governmental agencies and educational institutions, Positive Exposure utilizes the visual arts to significantly impact the fields of genetics, mental health and human rights. To learn more, visit positiveexposure.org.
Through the faces and stories captured in Rick's photographs, beauty is redefined, science is coupled with smiles and we can celebrate individuals whose uniqueness strengthens our community.

Michael Kovner is an Israeli painter renowned for his depictions of the raw landscape of his home country. The son of Abba Kovner—a resistance fighter, partisan, and poet— Michael was born in 1948 and raised on Kibbutz Ein Hachoresh. Kovner's affection for landscape runs deep; he writes, "As a young boy I was deeply attracted to the physical beauty of the world and wanted to give expression to that love through painting."
In the early 1970's, Kovner came to the US to study at the New York Studio School with Philip Guston, Jack Tworkow, and Mercedes Matte, and was heavily influenced by Abstract Expressionism. Upon his return to Israel in 1975, Kovner began his now long-celebrated career as a landscape painter. His works have been included in numerous exhibitions in museums and galleries all over the world.
Exteriors presents a selection of the artist's works made during prolonged stays at a studio he keeps in Brooklyn's Bushwick neighborhood. Both Brooklyn and the Upper West Side play leading roles in Kovner's New York life. Though man-made structures have sometimes appeared in the horizons of his desert landscapes, the works exhibited in Exteriors fully demonstrate Kovner's understanding of urban terrain. As gallerist Gabi Bineth notes, "Michael Kovner's New York is not readily visible, and does not include the city's most famous icons.
Kovner's New York is much more intimate[…]it entices the viewer to seek out the city's genuine heirlooms. From a barge crossing the river to tenement housing and an intimate visit to the artist's studio, Kovner shows us the view from his window into the bustling world of this magnificent city, with its skyline and its red brick buildings amid the changing seasons, from scorching summer to the cold, gray winter."
Danny Goldfield's NYChildren is a growing exhibit of 169 portraits reflecting the acclaimed photographer's quest to photograph one child from every country on earth, finding each child living in New York City. Each photograph tells its own uniquely compelling story; the exhibit, in total, encourages a communal effort to live more inclusive lives. A LIFE magazine cover story describes, "From Goldfield's many images, a single, rich, complex—and beautiful—portrait emerges."
Goldfield believes that "we live in a world with far too much fear and misunderstanding," and his project aims to inspire the courage needed for strangers "to meet and get to know one another in order to build trust and friendship." As urban populations grow increasingly multinational, NYChildren is not only reflective of the city's current community, but it also helps us envision a more harmonious future. Through snapshots of childhood moments and expressions, NYChildren offers a uniquely hopeful perspective on our ever-increasingly interconnected world.
Genesis of the Project
In 2003, while driving across the United States, Danny Goldfield stopped at a gas station in Mesa, Arizona and met Rana Sodhi, a Sikh whose brother was shot and killed in a hate crime on September 15, 2001. Days after the 9/11 attacks, a neighbor shot Balbir because of his turban and beard. In 2002, Sukhpal, Rana's second brother was killed under mysterious circumstances in San Francisco, California. Rana's response to these violent acts against his brothers was to encourage understanding and peace. Rana said, "It is important for me to get out of my house and meet my neighbors." Inspired by Rana's simple prescription to make the world safer, Goldfield started the NYChildren project. What started as a grassroots effort on the streets of New York has grown enormously, reaching a global audience of over 250 million people.
Jacqueline Nicholls is a visual artist and Jewish educator based in London, England. She uses her art to explore and challenge traditional Jewish ideas in untraditional ways. Using a variety of different media and craft techniques she engages and responds to traditional Torah and Talmudic texts in her work, using her art process as a bringing together of the art studio and the beit midrash (traditional Jewish place of study and learning).
In her first solo show in New York, at The Laurie M Tisch Gallery, with the curatorial guidance of Tobi Kahn, presents three of Nicholls' projects—The Kittel Collection, an exploration of clothing in Jewish Tradition; Ghosts & Shadows: The Women Who Haunt the Talmud; and Gather the Broken, a series of drawings corresponding to the Omer (the 49 days between Passover and Shavuot). Jacqueline would like to thank Tobi Kahn, Megan Whitman, Laura Kruger, Gabrielle Birkner, and Amichai Lau-Lavie for their support. She also thanks all her chavrutahs, past and present, for opening her mind to the infinite possibilities within the text.

Viewfinding exhibits the work of two Israeli-born, New York-based photographers, Adam Cohen and Gil Lavi. The show is a portrait of two cities—Tel Aviv and New York—that explores the desire to find similarities in differing terrains. It reveals the unique character of both locales while also exploring the role of the artist to find his own perspective in an ever-shifting, increasingly globalized existence. Both Cohen and Lavi have worked extensively in Israel and the United States, developing their aesthetics within these cultural landscapes. This show aims to introduce the individual talents of Cohen and Lavi, allowing us to see the stylistic differences of these two biographically similar photographers. But Viewfinding also strives to create aesthetic moments in which we cease to compare and contrast cities and photographers, and instead embrace the ambiguity of our perception.
About Adam Cohen: Inspired by light and composition, Adam Cohen began his foray into photography when he was a young child using an old SLR. He applied to photography school as a teenager to learn the essence of black and white and color hand printing, as well as studio light. After high school, Cohen spent a year working as a photography assistant. Afterward, Cohen attended 36 months of mandatory service in the Israeli Defense Force, followed by a year of traveling in East Asia and Australia. He then went back to Israel, assisting Yisrael Cohen, a commercial photographer in Tel Aviv. In 2004, Cohen moved to New York to expand the breadth of his work, and was employed as a commercial photographer while also exhibiting in galleries, community centers and pop-up exhibits throughout the city. In 2009, Cohen shot his first moving images video clip using stop motion technique. Excited by the new challenge of moving images, Cohen has since shot and produced videos, ranging from documentary and promotional clips for synagogues and local businesses to a music video for the Grammy-nominated singer Xiomara Laugart. Cohen currently resides in Brooklyn Heights where he works as a videographer and a photographer. Cohen's works can be found in the homes of private collectors in New York and at the new Marquee club in Las Vegas.
About Gil Lavi: Gil Lavi is an internationally-acclaimed and awarded photographer whose vision is informed by his diverse cultural and personal experience. Lavi's images are recognizable for their unique cinematic style. Born in Jerusalem, Lavi was raised in a family dedicated to art. His father was an enthusiastic photographer and his mother was an art therapist. At the age of 7, Lavi was already attached to his camera and could always be found inside a darkroom. By his teenage years, Lavi had exhibited his photographs and was working for the daily newspaper Maariv. During his compulsory military service with the Israeli Defense Force, Lavi served as a chief photographer for the Ground Forces Command. In 2006, he established his own commercial photography and brand imagery consulting studio in Tel Aviv. In 2008, Lavi began working on commercial projects across Europe and the United States and created 3 exhibitions of his work. Lavi was chosen by Forbes magazine as one of the 300 most successful and promising Israelis under 40. The Israeli government hired Lavi to create the concept and imagery for Israel's brand book for the worldwide rebranding process of the state. That same year, Lavi also produced and edited a photo essay about the murders of gay teenagers in Tel Aviv, published in International Time Out. Engaging people through photography has progressively played a major role in Lavi's career. His work has been featured in numerous magazines, and he has worked commercially for Delta Airlines, Knorr, AIDS Task Force, WIRED magazine, Michael Bloomberg, Technology Review, Draper Fisher Jurvetson, Siemens, leading politicians, and in conjunction with ad agencies including Publicis, Y&R, and IPG. Lavi holds the 2011 IAA Silver award for excellence in Commercial, Advertising & Fashion photography.

Over a year ago, a challenge was presented to the teachers of the nursery school: What could our school do to honor and celebrate the 10th Anniversary of the JCC and our school, while simultaneously making the remarkable work of our children visible to a larger audience' The answer seemed simple: create an art show to be held in The Laurie M. Tisch Gallery. The actual process of planning and implementing this show proved to be complex and arduous, but the work that you see before you is truly a labor of love, reflecting our strongly held belief in the capabilities and potential of all children.
The work that we have chosen to include in this show celebrates the creative energy and inspired imagination of every child in our program. Each piece is collaborative in nature, reflecting the unique voice of each child within the larger context of our classroom communities. They are small pieces of larger studies which evolved over a period of time, and were the outgrowth of the children's interests and investigations. While listening to the children, and encouraging them to listen to each other, the teachers were able to scaffold their interests and support their process of discovery and creation. In addition, by providing interesting and thought-provoking materials, and allowing the children extended periods of time to explore them, the children were able to develop specific skills and competencies. The children also developed many problem solving skills and social strategies, as they fused their individual ideas into a joint artistic vision.
The works in this show represent a diverse mosaic. When you stand close to them you can see the unique gifts of each child. When you step a little further back you can see that each small part contributes to a greater whole. It is only by looking at each work from both perspectives that one can fully understand and appreciate our school community.
It is with great pride and respect that we present the work of the children of The Saul and Carole Zabar Nursery School.

From Origin to Originality presents eighteen prominent, contemporary Israeli artists who have participated in or are associated with Alma's Beit Midrash Yotzrim: a convening of the country's top artists to study classic Jewish texts. Founded in 1996 by Talmud scholar Dr. Ruth Calderon, Beit Alma in Tel Aviv is an educational center for adults that offers a novel approach to the study of Jewish sources and the exploration of ideas and dilemmas that impact Israeli and Jewish identity. Alma engages this community of artists in a pluralistic and dialogue-based approach to classic Jewish sources, such as the Torah and the Talmud, while also incorporating literature, poetry, and philosophy.

In branching out from my regular Spiru-tein High Protein Energy Meal Simply Natural Original Vanilla Protein Powder Review, I found this flavor - and let me tell you, it's definitely unique. At $1.49 for a single-serving packet, it was an easy way to test the flavor. I'm not saying I don't like this flavor - I actually really like it. It's got a rich, banana flavor that is surprisingly delicious. I wonder what it would taste like with real bananas in a smoothie ...
Remember Laffy Taffy? Remember the banana flavor? If you were like me, you liked this flavor, not because it tasted like real bananas (which I don't particularly care for), but like an improved (okay, artificial) flavor of bananas as only Laffy Taffy could render. That's sort of what Spirutein Simply Natural Banana Protein Powder tastes like, only they use 'natural' banana flavor.
Each scoop (or packet) provides 80 calories, no fat, 1 gram of fiber, 14 grams of protein, and 9 grams of sugars. There is also 100% of the daily value for vitamins A, C, D, E, thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, B6, folic acid, B12, biotin, iodine, zinc and pantothenic acid, 30% for calcium and selenium, 25% for iron and molybdenum, 20% for phosphorus and magnesium, 15% for chromium, and a whopping 250% for manganese.
The ingredients list starts out with Non-GMO isolated soy protein, fructose, maltodextrin, tri-calcium phosphate, natural banana flavor and natural vanilla flavor, then continues with a host of added vitamins and minerals.
I not only use protein powder in post-workout shakes, but I also add it to my oatmeal in the mornings (it makes me feel fuller longer), and I even add a little to low fat yogurt.

About 10 years ago I went to Vegas with my mother and sister. I was like 21 or 22 at the time. I ontentioally got my own room cuz I wanted to party HARD. Anyways, I got a room right friggin next door to my mom and sister which I wasnt too thrilled about but whatever, it didnt stop me from being a hooker back to the room about 4am.
To make a long story short we were on like the 25th floor of the hotel and it had a nice balcony. The hooker acts as if shes never been so high up in a hotel so she decides to walk out onto the balcony butt naked and admire the view. Now this is not a fancy hotel by any means so all the balconies on the same floor are all wide open for each other to see. I remain lyin in bed and all of a sudden I hear her talking to someone outside and Im ike "what the darn." She comes back in and Im like "Who the darn were you talking to?" She says, "Oh, just some nice lasy next door to the left". HUH?????????????? Now im just BEGIING it was my sister and not my mom. So I say, " was she like 20 or like 50??. She says, "definitely 50". !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
To this day my mother has still never said anything
Just saw a cool ad on this site for JC Penney -they have some sales on some serious garbage !

On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

Subject: pool report #1
President Obama today signed a Proclamation designating Fort Monroe in
Hampton, Virginia, a National Monument. He also commented on the passing
of Mrs. Rodham, the mother of Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton.
On the proclamation signing, POTUS said t Fort Monroe "played a remarkable
role in the history of our nation." He noted it was the "site of the
first slave ships" and in the Civil War, Fort Monroe also became "a refuge
for slaves who had escaped from the South," creating "an environment in
which Abraham Lincoln was able to sign the Emancipation Proclamation."
Ft. Monroe closed in September. Local officials estimate that keeping the
military base open will create an estimated 3,000 new jobs and provide
millions dollars for the local economy, Obama said. Today's announcement
is one in a series of executive actions taken by Obama while Congress
continues its stalemate over the American Jobs Act
On the death of Mrs. Rodham, the president called her "a strong,
determined, gifted person. For her to have lived the life that she did
and to see her daughter succeed in the pinnacle of public service in this
country, I'm sure was deeply satisfying to her. My thoughts, Michelle's
thoughts, the entire White House's thoughts go out to the entire Clinton
family," the president said.
Please check quotes against transcript.
List of attendees and background of event to come shortly.
Pool was ushered into the Oval at 1:58 pm. Obama wore a dark navy suit,
white shirt and blue printed tie. Sen. John Warner stood directly behind
him along with other elected officials and local citizens. Pool left Oval

The duties which become sound doctrine. (1-8) Believing servants must be obedient. (9,10) All is enforced from the holy design of the gospel, which concerns all believers. (11-15)
Verses 1-8 Old disciples of Christ must behave in every thing agreeably to the Christian doctrine. That the aged men be sober; not thinking that the decays of nature will justify any excess; but seeking comfort from nearer communion with God, not from any undue indulgence. Faith works by, and must be seen in love, of God for himself, and of men for God's sake. Aged persons are apt to be peevish and fretful; therefore need to be on their guard. Though there is not express Scripture for every word, or look, yet there are general rules, according to which all must be ordered. Young women must be sober and discreet; for many expose themselves to fatal temptations by what at first might be only want of discretion. The reason is added, that the word of God may not be blasphemed. Failures in duties greatly reproach Christianity. Young men are apt to be eager and thoughtless, therefore must be earnestly called upon to be sober-minded: there are more young people ruined by pride than by any other sin. Every godly man's endeavour must be to stop the mouths of adversaries. Let thine own conscience answer for thine uprightness. What a glory is it for a Christian, when that mouth which would fain open itself against him, cannot find any evil in him to speak of!
Verses 9-10 Servants must know and do their duty to their earthly masters, with a reference to their heavenly one. In serving an earthly master according to Christ's will, He is served; such shall be rewarded by him. Not giving disrespectful or provoking language; but to take a check or reproof with silence, not making confident or bold replies. When conscious of a fault, to excuse or justify it, doubles it. Never putting to their own use that which is their master's, nor wasting the goods they are trusted with. Showing all good fidelity to improve a master's goods, and promote his thriving. If ye have not been faithful in that which is another man's, who shall give you that which is your own? ( Luke 16:12 ) . True religion is an honour to the professors of it; and they should adorn it in all things.
Verses 11-15 The doctrine of grace and salvation by the gospel, is for all ranks and conditions of men. It teaches to forsake sin; to have no more to do with it. An earthly, sensual conversation suits not a heavenly calling. It teaches to make conscience of that which is good. We must look to God in Christ, as the object of our hope and worship. A gospel conversation must be a godly conversation. See our duty in a very few words; denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, living soberly, righteously, and godly, notwithstanding all snares, temptations, corrupt examples, ill usage, and what remains of sin in the believer's heart, with all their hinderances. It teaches to look for the glories of another world. At, and in, the glorious appearing of Christ, the blessed hope of Christians will be complete: To bring us to holiness and happiness was the end of Christ's death. Jesus Christ, that great God and our Saviour, who saves not only as God, much less as Man alone; but as God-man, two natures in one person. He loved us, and gave himself for us; and what can we do less than love and give up ourselves to him! Redemption from sin and sanctification of the nature go together, and make a peculiar people unto God, free from guilt and condemnation, and purified by the Holy Spirit. All Scripture is profitable. Here is what will furnish for all parts of duty, and the right discharge of them. Let us inquire whether our whole dependence is placed upon that grace which saves the lost, pardons the guilty, and sanctifies the unclean. And the further we are removed from boasting of fancied good works, or trusting in them, so that we glory in Christ alone, the more zealous shall we be to abound in real good works.
Titus 2:1-15 . DIRECTIONS TO TITUS: HOW TO EXHORT VARIOUS CLASSES OF BELIEVERS: THE GRACE OF GOD IN CHRIST OUR GRAND INCENTIVE TO LIVE GODLY.
1. But . . . thou--in contrast to the reprobate seducers stigmatized in Titus 1:11 Titus 1:15 Titus 1:16 . "He deals more in exhortations, because those intent on useless questions needed chiefly to be recalled to the study of a holy, moral life; for nothing so effectually allays men's wandering curiosity, as the being brought to recognize those duties in which they ought to exercise themselves" [CALVIN].
speak--without restraint: contrast Titus 1:11 , "mouths . . . stopped."
doctrine--"instruction" or "teaching."
2. sober--Translated "vigilant," as sober men alone can be ( 1 Timothy 3:2 ). But "sober" here answers to "not given to wine," Titus 2:3 , Titus 1:7 .
grave--"dignified"; behaving with reverent propriety.
temperate--"self-restrained"; "discreet" [ALFORD], ( Titus 1:8 , 1 Timothy 2:9 ).
faith . . . charity [love] . . . patience--combined in 1 Timothy 6:11 . "Faith, hope, charity" ( 1 Corinthians 13:13 ). "Patience," Greek, "enduring perseverance," is the attendant on, and is supported by, "hope" ( 1 Corinthians 13:7 , 1 Thessalonians 1:3 ). It is the grace which especially becomes old men, being the fruit of ripened experience derived from trials overcome ( Romans 5:3 ).
3. behaviour--"deportment."
as becometh holiness--"as becometh women consecrated to God" [WAHL]: being by our Christian calling priestesses unto God ( Ephesians 5:3 , 1 Timothy 2:10 ). "Observant of sacred decorum" [BENGEL].
not false accusers--not slanderers: a besetting sin of some elderly women.
given to much wine--the besetting sin of the Cretans ( Titus 1:12 ). Literally, "enslaved to much wine." Addiction to wine is slavery ( Romans 6:16 , 2 Peter 2:19 ).
teachers--in private: not in public ( 1 Corinthians 14:34 , 1 Timothy 2:11 1 Timothy 2:12 ); influencing for good the younger women by precept and example.
4. to be sober--Greek, "self-restrained," "discreet"; the same Greek as in Titus 2:2 , "temperate." (But ALFORD therefore translates, "That they school (admonish in their duty) the young women to be lovers of their husbands," &c. (the foundation of all domestic happiness). It was judicious that Titus, a young man, should admonish the young women, not directly, but through the older women.
5. keepers at home--as "guardians of the house," as the Greek expresses. The oldest manuscripts read, "Workers at home": active in household duties ( Proverbs 7:11 , 1 Timothy 5:13 ).
good--kind, beneficent ( Matthew 20:15 , Romans 5:7 , 1 Peter 2:18 ). Not churlish and niggardly, but thrifty as housewives.
obedient--rather "submissive," as the Greek is translated;
their own--marking the duty of subjection which they owe them, as being their own husbands ( Ephesians 5:22 , Colossians 3:18 ).
blasphemed--"evil spoken of." That no reproach may be cast on the Gospel, through the inconsistencies of its professors ( Titus 2:8 Titus 2:10 , Romans 2:24 , 1 Timothy 5:14 , 6:1 ). "Unless we are virtuous, blasphemy will come through us to the faith" [THEOPHYLACT].
6. Young--Greek, "The younger men."
sober-minded--self-restrained [ALFORD]. "Nothing is so hard at this age as to overcome pleasures and follies" [CHRYSOSTOM].
7. In--with respect to all things.
thyself a pattern--though but a young man thyself. All teaching is useless unless the teacher's example confirm his word.
in doctrine--in thy ministerial teaching (showing) uncorruptness, that is, untainted purity of motive on thy part (compare 2 Corinthians 11:3 ), so as to be "a pattern" to all. As "gravity," &c., refers to Titus himself, so "uncorruptness"; though, doubtless, uncorruptness of the doctrine will be sure to follow as a consequence of the Christian minister being of simple, uncorrupt integrity himself.
gravity--dignified seriousness in setting forth the truth.
sincerity--omitted in the oldest manuscripts.
8. speech--discourse in public and private ministrations.
he that is of the contrary part--the adversary ( Titus 1:9 , 2 Timothy 2:25 ), whether he be heathen or Jew.
may be ashamed--put to confusion by the power of truth and innocence (compare Titus 2:5 Titus 2:10 , 1 Timothy 5:14 , 6:1 ).
no evil thing--in our acts, or demeanor.
of you--So one of the oldest manuscripts. Other very old manuscripts read, "of US," Christians.
9. servants--"slaves."
to please them well--"to give satisfaction" [ALFORD]. To be complaisant in everything; to have that zealous desire to gain the master's goodwill which will anticipate the master's wish and do even more than is required. The reason for the frequent recurrence of injunctions to slaves to subjection ( Ephesians 6:5 , &c.; Colossians 3:22 , 1 Timothy 6:1 , &c.; 1 Peter 2:18 ) was, that in no rank was there more danger of the doctrine of the spiritual equality and freedom of Christians being misunderstood than in that of slaves. It was natural for the slave who had become a Christian, to forget his place and put himself on a social level with his master. Hence the charge for each to abide in the sphere in which he was when converted ( 1 Corinthians 7:20-24 ).
not answering again--in contradiction to the master: so the Greek, "not contradicting" [WAHL].
10. Not purloining--Greek, "Not appropriating" what does not belong to one. It means "keeping back" dishonestly or deceitfully ( Acts 5:2 Acts 5:3 ).
showing--manifesting in acts.
all--all possible.
good--really good; not so in mere appearance ( Ephesians 6:5 Ephesians 6:6 , Colossians 3:22-24 ). "The heathen do not judge of the Christian's doctrines from the doctrine, but from his actions and life" [CHRYSOSTOM]. Men will write, fight, and even die for their religion; but how few live for it! Translate, "That they may adorn the doctrine of our Saviour God," that is, God the Father, the originating author of salvation (compare Note, deigns to have His Gospel-doctrine adorned even by slaves, who are regarded by the world as no better than beasts of burden. "Though the service be rendered to an earthly master, the honor redounds to God, as the servant's goodwill flows from the fear of God" [THEOPHYLACT]. Even slaves, low as is their status, should not think the influence of their example a matter of no consequence to religion: how much more those in a high position. His love in being "our Saviour" is the strongest ground for our adorning His doctrine by our lives. This is the force of "For" in Titus 2:11 .
11. the grace of God--God's gratuitous favor in the scheme of redemption.
hath appeared--Greek, "hath been made to appear," or "shine forth" ( Isaiah 9:2 , Luke 1:79 ). "hath been manifested" ( Titus 3:4 ), after having been long hidden in the loving counsels of God ( Colossians 1:26 , 2 Timothy 1:9 2 Timothy 1:10 ). The image is illustrated in Acts 27:20 . The grace of God hath now been embodied in Jesus, the brightness of the Father's glory," manifested as the "Sun of righteousness," "the Word made flesh." The Gospel dispensation is hence termed "the day" ( 1 Thessalonians 5:5 1 Thessalonians 5:8 ; there is a double "appearing," that of "grace" here, that of "glory," Titus 2:13 ; compare Romans 13:12 ). Connect it not as English Version, but, "The grace . . . that bringeth salvation to all men hath appeared," or "been manifested" ( 1 Timothy 2:4 , 4:10 ). Hence God is called "our Saviour" ( Titus 2:10 ). The very name Jesus means the same.
to all--of whom he enumerated the different classes ( Titus 2:2-9 ): even to servants; to us Gentiles, once aliens from God. Hence arises our obligation to all men ( Titus 3:2 ).
12. Teaching--Greek, "disciplining us." Grace exercises discipline, and is imparted in connection with disciplining chastisements ( 1 Corinthians 11:32 , Hebrews 12:6 Hebrews 12:7 ). The education which the Christian receives from "the grace" of God is a discipline often trying to flesh and blood: just as children need disciplining. The discipline which it exercises teaches us to deny ungodliness and worldly lusts, and to live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world (Greek, "age," or course of things) where such self-discipline is needed, seeing that its spirit is opposed to God ( Titus 1:12 Titus 1:16 , 1 Corinthians 1:20 , 1 Corinthians 3:18 1 Corinthians 3:19 ): in the coming world we may gratify every desire without need of self-discipline, because all desires there will be conformable to the will of God.
that--Greek, "in order that"; the end of the "disciplining" is "in order that . . . we may live soberly," &c. This point is lost by the translation, "teaching us."
denying . . . lusts--( Luke 9:23 ). The Greek aorist expresses "denying once for all." We deny "worldly lusts" when we withhold our consent from them, when we refuse the delight which they suggest, and the act to which they solicit us, nay, tear them up by the roots out of our soul and mind [ST. BERNARD, Sermon 11].
worldly lusts--The Greek article expresses, "the lusts of the world," "all worldly lusts" [ALFORD], ( Galatians 5:16 , Ephesians 2:3 , 1 John 2:15-17 , 5:19 ). The world (cosmos) will not come to an end when this present age (aeon) or course of things shall end.
live soberly, righteously, and godly--the positive side of the Christian character; as "denying . . . lusts" was the negative. "Soberly," that is, with self-restraint, in relation to one's self: "righteously" or justly, in relation to our neighbor; "godly" or piously, in relation to God (not merely amiably and justly, but something higher, godly, with love and reverence toward God). These three comprise our "disciplining" in faith and love, from which he passes to hope ( Titus 2:13 ).
13. ( Philippians 3:20 Philippians 3:21 ).
Looking for--with constant expectation (so the Greek) and with joy ( Romans 8:19 ). This will prove the antidote to worldly lusts, and the stimulus to "live in this present world" conformably to this expectation. The Greek is translated, "waiting for," in Luke 2:25 .
that--Greek, "the."
blessed--bringing blessedness ( Romans 4:7 Romans 4:8 ).
hope--that is, object of hope ( Romans 8:24 , Galatians 5:5 , Colossians 1:5 ).
the glorious appearing--There is but one Greek article to both "hope" and "appearing," which marks their close connection (the hope being about to be realized only at the appearing of Christ). Translate, "The blessed hope and manifestation (compare Note, "manifestation" is translated "brightness" in 2 Thessalonians 2:8 . As His "coming" (Greek, "parousia") expresses the fact; so "brightness, appearing," or "manifestation" (epiphaneia) expresses His personal visibility when He shall come.
the great God and our Saviour Jesus--There is but one Greek article to "God" and "Saviour," which shows that both are predicated of one and the same Being. "Of Him who is at once the great God and our Saviour." Also (2) "appearing" (epiphaneia) is never by Paul predicated of God the Father ( John 1:18 , 1 Timothy 6:16 ), or even of "His glory" (as ALFORD explains it): it is invariably applied to CHRIST'S coming, to which (at His first advent, compare 2 Timothy 1:10 ) the kindred verb "appeared" (epephanee), Titus 2:11 , refers ( 1 Timothy 6:14 , 2 Timothy 4:1 2 Timothy 4:8 ). Also (3) in the context ( Titus 2:14 ) there is no reference to the Father, but to Christ alone; and here there is no occasion for reference to the Father in the exigencies of the context. Also (4) the expression "great God," as applied to Christ, is in accordance with the context, which refers to the glory of His appearing; just as "the true God" is predicated of Christ, 1 John 5:20 . The phrase occurs nowhere else in the New Testament, but often in the Old Testament. Deuteronomy 7:21 , 10:17 , predicated of Jehovah, who, as their manifested Lord, led the Israelites through the wilderness, doubtless the Second Person in the Trinity. Believers now look for the manifestation of His glory, inasmuch as they shall share in it. Even the Socinian explanation, making "the great God" to be the Father, "our Saviour," the Son, places God and Christ on an equal relation to "the glory" of the future appearing: a fact incompatible with the notion that Christ is not divine; indeed it would be blasphemy so to couple any mere created being with God.

The aim of His redemption was to redeem us, not merely from the penalty, but from the being of all iniquity.

The best fit ever
By Barb in TN
from Tennessee
I have purchased a few wigs from Paula Young, but this one I really enjoy. It fits great and looks natural. My hair is thin and it gets oily soon after its washed. The wigs are wonderful for a sudden trip and I don't have to try and work with my own.I also have the Danica which is a human hair blend. My sister loves it and says that she can't tell it's a wig, No one can. I recommend Paul Young's wigs to anyone who wants a new look or just a simple and easy way to look great.

I'd buy this again
By Lori the Cat Lady
from Edmonton, Alberta Canada
Over the past number of years, I have purchased quite a few wigs, This wig is by far the best of them all. It requires very little maintenance. I've noticed even on windy days, this wig still looks great. It doesn't matter if its combed straight or has that wind blown look, they are all great looks.

Paula Young shag wig
By Indianacorvette
from Connersville, Indiana
I had bariatric surgery and after the 3rd month I began losing my hair. I bought an acemetric wig and this wig. I just love them. My real hair will grown back withing a year doctors tell me so I will use these wigs until it grows back. I am sure I will wear them after that too. My friends tell me they look so natural. I didn't know how well they would match my hair but they match it perfectly. I can even use my own bangs with the wigs. No one can tell it is a wig. The wig is a little hot but I will deal with that.

Just received the wigs today. I ordered two...the Darlene and the Carly. Both were in the Average size. The Darlene was a perfect fit, but this one, the Carly, was about an inch too short all the way around. Impossible to wear. Might have been a labeling mistake, but it is very small. It will be returned. I will be purchasing another wig in a different style.

The Prophet Moses (pbuh)
The Prophet Moses (pbuh) left behind Pharaoh and his people, and set off to Midian. (Midian is a region beyond the Sinai desert to the east of Egypt, corresponding to the southern end of Jordan today.)
At the water of Midian, the Prophet Moses (pbuh) encountered two women who could not water their flocks out of wanting to avoid other shepherds. But, as the verses of the Qur'an relate, outwardly, the Prophet Moses (pbuh) appeared as a highly decent and trustworthy person. Thus, the women did not hesitate to approach him. They explained that they had to graze their father's flocks for him since he was an old man, but that they couldn't because of the shepherds. Then, the Prophet Moses (pbuh) helped the women by leading their flock to the water:
When he arrived at the water of Midian, he found a crowd of people drawing water there. Standing apart from them, he found two women, holding back their sheep. He said, "What are you two doing here?" They said, "We cannot draw water until the shepherds have driven off their sheep. You see our father is a very old man." So he drew water for them... (Surat al-Qasas: 23-24)
The verses provide an example of the courteous and benevolent character of the Prophet Moses (pbuh); he approaches two strangers, helped them, and earned their respect. On the other hand, it is to be understood that the men, mentioned as "shepherds," effected an attitude entirely opposite to the manners of the Prophet Moses (pbuh). This is evident from the fact that the women apparently avoided them though they chose to talk to the Prophet Moses (pbuh). These men might have been untrustworthy in appearance. (Allah knows the truth.)
We may continue to conclude that a Muslim must carefully avoid the manners peculiar to the people mentioned here as "shepherds." Muslims should look to role models like the Prophet Moses (pbuh), who conducted himself kindly, decently and forthrightly. As the example of the Prophet Moses (pbuh) suggests, a Muslim must develop highly cultivated manners, and be trustworthy, qualities that should be immediately discernible in him.
We need also make note of the fact that the Prophet Moses (pbuh) is always of a temperament that exemplifies that wholehearted submission to Allah. Leaving everything dear to him in the land of Egypt where he had grown up, he had no idea whatsoever of what the future would hold for him. Though it was not known to him, Allah already predestined certain events for him. The Prophet Moses (pbuh) prayed the following:
…and then withdrew into the shade and said, "My Lord, I am truly in need of any good You have in store for me." (Surat al-Qasas: 24)
One's sincerity in one's prayer is evidence in one's grasp of the fact that Allah has the power to do anything, that all blessings and adversities come only from Him, and that one has no other helper or protector other than Allah. The Prophet Moses' (pbuh) prayer quoted in the above verse is the kind made in complete submission to Allah, by someone who has a full comprehension of this truth. Indeed, Allah answered the Prophet Moses' (pbuh) sincere prayer and opened His mercy to him.
The kindness the Prophet Moses (pbuh) had shown to the two women resulted in the start of a completely new life for him. While the Prophet Moses (pbuh) was resting, one of the women approached him to convey her father's invitation in appreciation for his help. Allah relates in the Qur'an as follows:
Then there came unto him one of the two women, walking shyly and said, "My father invites you so that he can reward you with a payment for drawing water for us." When he came to him and told him the whole story he said, "Have no fear, you have escaped from wrongdoing people." (Surat al-Qasas: 25)
The Prophet Moses (pbuh) prayed to our Lord sincerely, pleading for any good He would bestow on him. Allah answered his prayer and, following a threat against his life, guided him to the people who would help him and offer him security. The Prophet Moses (pbuh) was of a strong character, and person who was trusted because of his manners. Indeed, the women, despite being cautious against the shepherds, trusted the Prophet Moses (pbuh) and spoke to him. Furthermore one of the women asked her father to hire the Prophet Moses (pbuh) seeing as he was strong and trustworthy. This offer is related in the verses as follows
One of them said, "Hire him, father. The best person to hire is someone strong and trustworthy." (Surat al-Qasas: 26)
With these words, the woman explicitly expressed to her father that she found the Prophet Moses (pbuh) to be a reliable person. Convinced of his trustworthiness, the old man decided to wed his daughter to the Prophet Moses (pbuh). The recognizable decency of the Prophet Moses (pbuh) was instrumental in his decision. Allah relates in the verses the proposal of the father of the women to the Prophet Moses (pbuh) as follows:
He said, "I would like to marry you to one of these two daughters of mine on condition that you work for me for eight full years. If you complete ten, that is up to you. I do not want to be hard on you. You will find me, Allah willing, to be one of the righteous." He (Moses) said, "That is agreed between me and you. Whichever of the two terms I fulfil, there will be no injustice done to me. Allah is Guardian over what we say." (Surat al-Qasas: 27-28)
The Prophet Moses (pbuh) accepted this proposal and began leading the rest of his life in Midian. Hence, Allah first delivered the Prophet Moses (pbuh) to safety, making the waters of the Nile carry him to the Palace of Pharaoh without drowning. Then, while his life was in danger in Egypt, He saved him a second time and led him to a peaceful life in Midian.

Calling All Crafters
08.08.12 |
Are you one of those people who likes to keep busy making things? Maybe you like to woodwork, quilt, or make cards. Or maybe you like making jewelry… or soap. Whatever gets your creative juices flowing, we have an opportunity to share with you. One that glorifies God and uses the talent He placed in you!
The organizers of Family Life's Christmas Ladies Luncheon and Craft Bazarre are seeking people, just like you, to make and donate items for the 2012 event.
But you say, "It's not Christmas!" No, but if you're like me and all the other crafty people I know, the "busy" index only increases as Fall arrives, which puts the holidays right around the corner. Now would be a great time to make a few extra items to contribute!
Not sure what to make? From my experience, the ladies who attend our luncheon aren't difficult to please, and they'll probably like what you do. Christmas decorations for the home are always popular. Crafts make great gifts overall, for anyone – family, friends, the next door neighbor or a favorite teacher. Whatever your passion to create, I'm sure there will be a lady who will be thrilled to take it home!
May we count on you this year to craft and donate items? The luncheon date is Wednesday, December 5, and items may be dropped off at Family Life (or mailed to P.O. Box 506, Bath, NY 14810) anytime between now and then. If you have a suggested price for your items, please include those too, and mark the package for Christmas Ladies Luncheon, attention: Trudi.
I can't wait to see your creativity!

"Mamey sapote sells a lot in the Northeast, whether Hispanic or tropical climate, and star fruit is pretty much everywhere, especially if there's Asian consumers and a lot of wholesalers that buy for food distribution and the food industry," Caram said.
Gooseberries have shown steady growth, said Jaysen Weidner, a salesman with McMinnville, Ore.-based berry grower-shipper Hurst's Berry Farm.
The Oregon gooseberry season got underway in late May and will run through early July, Weidner said.
"It's not a huge item, and foodservice is our biggest buyer (of gooseberries)," he said.
Common uses for fresh gooseberries, he said, are sauces, jams and garnishes.
Restaurants feature gooseberries when they're available, Weidner said.
Specialties are an important part of a total produce program at retail and foodservice, said Marc Marchini, sales and marketing manager with Le Grand, Calif.-based J. Marchini & Sons Inc. focuses on radicchio and other specialty items.
"That's always a slowly growing market but adds diversity to the customers' (product line)," he said.
In restaurants, chefs are always looking for new items to feature, he said.
"There's a market for a producer, but you really need to be set up in a way to pay attention to little details," Marchini said.
The economies of scale really work for big items, but for niche items, a retailer or foodservice customer has to decide which specialty items will work and which ones won't, Marchini said.
Schueller said the summer specialty tree fruits have built momentum over the past few years, listing velvet and aprium apricots, white-flesh nectarine, plumcots and Saturn peaches.
"Also we have seen some growth in summer melon varieties, like canary, galia, hami, orange-fleshed and sharyln," he said.
Muscato, champagne and niabell grapes also have shown double-digit growth, Schueller said.
"We are expecting a similar season this summer with all the tree fruits anticipating a double-digit growth," he said.
Specialty potatoes
Schueller also said he had seen growth in the specialty potato category, with more expected in the fall, when the new crop comes in.
"Our strength is in the baby potato category on our exclusive varieties baby Dutch yellow potatoes and ruby gold, but we also see continued strong showing in the mixed fingerlings, whites, red, purple creamers, too," he said.
The category grew about 8% last year and likely will grow up to 13% in the next season, he said.
Root vegetables are showing promise, said Bruce Klein, marketing director with Maurice A. Auerbach Inc., Secaucus, N.J.
He cited ginger root as an example.
"A lot of the chefs are cooking with it, so they're using it with recipes, and that translates into the consumer buying more," he said.

He got that thickness, the kind that make you get up makin' biscuits with breakfast, so gone - Jill Scott - So Gone
Don't think I have ever wanted to be with a guy more than Tom. Only found out about him a couple of days ago but have been thinking of him 24/7. He'd be the perfect boyfriend.
this guy is the essence of perfection.
the shots of him at the olympics in that low low rising speedo - man, his body does not have the slightest imperfection.
he's incredible!
Tom doesn't answer ANY tweets from gay guys- I've been following his twitter feed for a year- any gay innuendo is completley ignored. He claims to be straight.
how hot?
What I'm probably doing atm!
My goodness, he is a flexible little thing indeed - the things you could do to him in that position, almost as if he's asking for it and I would be more than willing to provide! I've always had my eye on him but there's no denying his hotness has intensified the last few years in particular. I just want to rip those slacks of him and go to town....
Does anyone (in the US) know what channel the men's diving will be on tomorrow? I tried search NBC, NBC Sports, etc. None of them say Men's platform diving. Can't wait to see Tom Daley and Matt Mitcham.
I'd suggest watching it live online if at all possible. The diving starts Friday at 7 p.m. London time, that's 2 p.m. New York time. Trust me, if I have to hijack a British t.v. station to watch Tom Daley perform, I will.
I think that they are showing it on the taped delay primetime at 8 ET. Don't know why they wouldn't show it live!
Olympic TV Schedule | NBC, NBCSN, CNBC, MSNBC, Bravo | NBC Olympics
Check this for TV in your zip code
according to my Olympic Schedule print out- in paper before Games started...Tonight between 8-12 they are showing prelims and Sat night 8-12 they are showing the Finals...the Semis aren't listed, but they showed the women's SF earlier in the the night and the finals later..they showed the springboard SF during the day session- 10am- 5pm, thn the final that night....if no American medals, they may move the finals back to late night- that's what happened in the men's Sp Brd final...you just need to tune in at start times and see if they have a rundown
I think he is so hot, and has a killer smile. Any of you brits have any other pics of this stud?
From the USA and fuck yeah he is, lol amazing
No- he's from GB and already has a thread in the Male Celeb section
there is a thread on him in the male celebrities section... he is a lovely lad and nice guy too it seems and I would not be at all surprised if he kicks with the same foot as all of us
Here he is with his synchro-swimming diving partner, Peter Waterfield, taken just after they messed up their routine last week ... I hope Tom does better with his solo dives this weekend ... I love those low-cut speedos by the way ...
I think you answered your own question there buddy! Mind you, I have seen some genuinely creepy shit being tweete at him this year from old queens on my twitter feed and plus the athletes Twitters are monitored closely.
And it's not necessarily true about him not answering gay guys, I tweeted him and he responded
Tom has also popped up on the Gay Porn and Hot Men forum, so I uploaded this pic there, taken after Tom and his synchro-diving buddy Peter Waterfield messed up last week ... That's why they look so crestfallen ... Let's hope they do better in the singles dives over this weekend ... And like the rest of you guys, I love their low-cut speedos ...
His current scores are disappointing — as are Matthew Mitcham's
Tom's made the final Mitchum didn't.
The final will be tonight (Saturday) at 8:30 pm UK time, 5 hours ahead of EST
He so belongs in porno as a cute twink power-bottom. Don't you think?
Poor Mitcham, one place off qualifying. And he dived so well until the last round. He is always so upbeat after the dives - even when he found out he didn't make it to the final. Breaks my heart to see him out
My favourite Olympian!
Unlucky but good on you Matthew!
^^^ Well who knows what's going on in the Olympic Village
I never heard of this guy until this week. I don't think he's an elite diver.
Well, he does have the perfect body. I would think he's gay to parade around in the smallest speedo anyone could find.
re: I never asked Tom sexual questions- usually diving related....yes- you hate me, I get it- Move on!
He won the 2009 World Championships, the 2012 European Championship and the 2012 World Cup....is that elite enough for you?
^I didn't know. For all the press, you would think he's Michael Phelps.
Britain doesn't have much- especially in diving history, so they over do it at times
I mean I really really wouldn't be surprised if he was gay, he seems a little over-compensatory, and it makes sense to keep it a secret since the basis of his appeal is probably girls 12-20 and his manager/publicists probably keep the lid on anything like that. But even if he was out would you reply to gross old guys telling you they wanted to put it in you? Can't really judge him for that one...
There isnt a British gay boy in the land that hasnt got 15gb. of pictures stored on Tom Daley!
I know he is from GB, I was saying I was from the USA
Did anyone think it looked like Tom had a bit of boner during his final dive?
so happy that he got bronze.
when you say english do you mean english or brittish?
some twit said he's gay..... is it true?
In the first pic, that bulge is lookin good! Yum. What a hottie.
Happy for Daley, although I think there were a couple of dives where they overawarded Qui Bo and he probably should have ended up bronze. Still happy for him - especially seeing him being happy with it.
Indeed Tom seemed absolutely thrilled to win the Bronze. Qui Bo was also overscored in two dives, one where he barely cleared the platform and a following one where he went a tad over vertical and left too much splash. Tom should have been awarded the Silver. But, he's obviously elated as I am for him.
Holy fuck Daley is hotttttt....where did the nudes come from (if not fakes)?

Pamela RiemenschneiderBentonville, Ark.-based Wal-Mart Stores Inc. launched new Fresh Produce Schools for more than 70,000 associates as part of a new effort to improve its fresh produce image with consumers. Just a few months after coming under scrutiny for out of stocks and poor execution in its fresh produce department, Bentonville, Ark.-based Wal-Mart Stores Inc. launched a campaign and initiatives, aimed at consumers, touting improvements to its fresh produce.
The company held a media call June 3 to roll out the initiatives, including promoting its "100% money back guarantee" for fresh produce purchases, efforts to reduce transit time from farms to stores through satellite buying offices, more direct grower relationships, training for in-store employees and weekly produce checks at more than 3,000 stores.
The initiatives are supported with a nationwide ad campaign about Wal-Mart's fresh produce.
Jack Sinclair, executive vice president of grocery for Wal-Mart U.S. said the company is "cutting out the middleman" and buying more produce direct, including being on track for increasing local produce sourcing by 50% over the next several years.
The company still plans to source from local wholesalers, however.
"The other 20% will be through local wholesalers — those wholesalers play an important role for us in the areas we serve," he said.
Buying direct from growers and offering guarantees on produce are nothing new for major retailers — including Wal-Mart — said Bruce Peterson of Peterson Insights Inc., a former Wal-Mart produce executive. Where Wal-Mart could make the most positive changes in Wal-Mart's fresh produce comes with in-store execution in the produce departments themselves, Peterson said.
Wal-Mart appears to be addressing those issues through its new Fresh Produce Schools, what Sinclair said would be "visual" training programs for more than 70,000 associates on appropriate produce handling procedures and expectations of product freshness. This will help employees identify what produce belongs on the shelf and what needs to be removed, Sinclair said.
These training programs will be backed up with independent weekly fresh produce checks for more than 3,000 stores.
The Fresh Produce School is a great idea, Peterson said, depending on execution.
"I think that's inherently a good thing," he said. "But I wonder who are the people they're going to train. Wal-Mart historically has been a company of generalists. They never really applied any specific product training in the way you would think that a conventional retailer would do."
Wal-Mart could face challenges because training could mean specialization.

According to my ex who is a patient and not currently incarcerated, which asked for a treatment facility for his alcoholism from the judge, this is NOT a treatment facility. They drill in structure but do not address addiction or recovery. Or at least not after 30 days of being there. This facility is no help to an addict looking for help on ulterior coping devices other than substances. You are able to get your GED but that's about it.
