GOD'S WORD Translation (GW) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 Then 14 years later I went to Jerusalem again with Barnabas. I also took Titus along. | 1 Fourteen years later I went up again to Jerusalem, this time with Barnabas. I took Titus along also. |
2 I went in response to a revelation [from God]. I showed them the way I spread the Good News among people who are not Jewish. I did this in a private meeting with those recognized as important people to see whether all my efforts had been wasted. | 2 I went in response to a revelation and set before them the gospel that I preach among the Gentiles. But I did this privately to those who seemed to be leaders, for fear that I was running or had run my race in vain. |
3 Titus was with me, and although he is Greek, no one forced him to be circumcised. | 3 Yet not even Titus, who was with me, was compelled to be circumcised, even though he was a Greek. |
4 False Christians were brought in. They slipped in as spies to learn about the freedom Christ Jesus gives us. They hoped to find a way to control us. | 4 [This matter arose] because some false brothers had infiltrated our ranks to spy on the freedom we have in Christ Jesus and to make us slaves. |
5 But we did not give in to them for a moment, so that the truth of the Good News would always be yours. | 5 We did not give in to them for a moment, so that the truth of the gospel might remain with you. |
6 Those who were recognized as important people didn't add a single thing to my message. (What sort of people they were makes no difference to me, since God doesn't play favorites.) | 6 As for those who seemed to be important--whatever they were makes no difference to me; God does not judge by external appearance--those men added nothing to my message. |
7 In fact, they saw that I had been entrusted with telling the Good News to people who are not circumcised as Peter had been entrusted to tell it to those who are circumcised. | 7 On the contrary, they saw that I had been entrusted with the task of preaching the gospel to the Gentiles, just as Peter had been to the Jews. |
8 The one who made Peter an apostle to Jewish people also made me an apostle to people who are not Jewish. | 8 For God, who was at work in the ministry of Peter as an apostle to the Jews, was also at work in my ministry as an apostle to the Gentiles. |
9 James, Cephas, and John (who were recognized as the most important people) acknowledged that God had given me this special gift. So they shook hands with Barnabas and me, agreeing to be our partners. It was understood that we would work among the people who are not Jewish and they would work among Jewish people. | 9 James, Peter and John, those reputed to be pillars, gave me and Barnabas the right hand of fellowship when they recognized the grace given to me. They agreed that we should go to the Gentiles, and they to the Jews. |
10 The only thing they asked us to do was to remember the poor, the very thing which I was eager to do. | 10 All they asked was that we should continue to remember the poor, the very thing I was eager to do. |
11 When Cephas came to Antioch, I had to openly oppose him because he was completely wrong. | 11 When Peter came to Antioch, I opposed him to his face, because he was clearly in the wrong. |
12 He ate with people who were not Jewish until some men James had sent [from Jerusalem] arrived. Then Cephas drew back and would not associate with people who were not Jewish. He was afraid of those who insisted that circumcision was necessary. | 12 Before certain men came from James, he used to eat with the Gentiles. But when they arrived, he began to draw back and separate himself from the Gentiles because he was afraid of those who belonged to the circumcision group. |
13 The other Jewish Christians also joined him in this hypocrisy. Even Barnabas was swept along with them. | 13 The other Jews joined him in his hypocrisy, so that by their hypocrisy even Barnabas was led astray. |
14 But I saw that they were not properly following the truth of the Good News. So I told Cephas in front of everyone, "You're Jewish, but you live like a person who is not Jewish. So how can you insist that people who are not Jewish must live like Jews?" | 14 When I saw that they were not acting in line with the truth of the gospel, I said to Peter in front of them all, "You are a Jew, yet you live like a Gentile and not like a Jew. How is it, then, that you force Gentiles to follow Jewish customs? |
15 We are Jewish by birth, not sinners from other nations. | 15 "We who are Jews by birth and not 'Gentile sinners' |
16 Yet, we know that people don't receive God's approval because of their own efforts to live according to a set of standards, but only by believing in Jesus Christ. So we also believed in Jesus Christ in order to receive God's approval by faith in Christ and not because of our own efforts. People won't receive God's approval because of their own efforts to live according to a set of standards. | 16 know that a man is not justified by observing the law, but by faith in Jesus Christ. So we, too, have put our faith in Christ Jesus that we may be justified by faith in Christ and not by observing the law, because by observing the law no one will be justified. |
17 If we, the same people who are searching for God's approval in Christ, are still sinners, does that mean that Christ encourages us to sin? That's unthinkable! | 17 "If, while we seek to be justified in Christ, it becomes evident that we ourselves are sinners, does that mean that Christ promotes sin? Absolutely not! |
18 If I rebuild something that I've torn down, I admit that I was wrong to tear it down. | 18 If I rebuild what I destroyed, I prove that I am a lawbreaker. |
19 When I tried to obey the law's standards, those laws killed me. As a result, I live in a relationship with God. I have been crucified with Christ. | 19 For through the law I died to the law so that I might live for God. |
20 I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live I live by believing in God's Son, who loved me and took the punishment for my sins. | 20 I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. |
21 I don't reject God's kindness. If we receive God's approval by obeying laws, then Christ's death was pointless. | 21 I do not set aside the grace of God, for if righteousness could be gained through the law, Christ died for nothing!" |

"Forcing the Spring: Inside the Fight for Marriage Equality," follows the five-year legal battle over same sex marriage that ensued after California passed Proposition 8. The book digs beneath the surface with personal narratives of those who had been the public face of this major civil rights case. Jeffrey Brown talks to journalist and author Jo Becker.
The Amazon reviews show the controversy swirling around this book. The negative reviews are not just from people that are against gay marriage but people that believe this book does not give credit to the correct people for the legal battle for gay rights.

Do you have the courage to pretend you're on a fake date with a random girl in the park? Well, this guy named Tommy does.
The prank is simple, yet genius. Tommy walks up to random girls holding a rose and immediately introduces himself. He often sits down beside them and begins complimenting them and apologizing for being late. He even tells one girl he didn't expect her to be there already.
The women look at him confused, but for some reason continue to participate in the fake date. The concept is that Tommy is meeting a girl in that area for a blind fake date and he's mistaken the girl for the one he's supposed to meet.
Most of the women are so shocked by his approach that it takes them a while to explain they don't know what he's talking about.

My neighbor has asked me to hem some new boys pants.
The material would be denim jeans and cords. They are not sure if they have to be cut or not, they said maybe just turned up and sewed. Any idea what is a reasonable price for this? Thanks! |

$20/hour. You might want to do a test run on a pair of old jeans that you have around and see how long it takes. Most people completely underestimate how long it takes to hem up a pair of pants, especially if you have to cut them off and turn a new hem. Also, be sure that YOU do the measuring and fitting. And refuse to hem them until they've been washed at least twice to make sure that they aren't going to shrink. I'm sure your neighbor is a nice lady, but if these don't end up the right length after washing, she will think it's your fault. Annie |

I wouldn't charge 20.00 an hour unless it was for a mans suit or something,but for a little boy,no way.The pants probably didn't cost that much!! I do this every year,for my GS'S and although i don't charge their parents,i do do some hemming for his other gramma,and do charge her.I usually charge her 6.00 a pair,and it doesn't take that long. I also tell them to make sure they have washed and dried them first,and i do the measuring.I also have people bring the shoes they will wear with them. I know most of us really don't charge what we should. I'm retired ,so if i make a little money on the side for a few minutes work,that's ok.Now if i did this for a living,that would be different.JMHO. |

Kathy wrote: I wouldn't charge 20.00 an hour unless it was for a mans suit or something,but for a little boy,no way.The pants probably didn't cost that much!! ~~I understand your thinking, except that now we're talking a business arrangement-not a family thing that you do out of love. Standard rates for alterations is $20-50/hour depending on where you live in. (Bridal alterations are charged even higher.) The rate is based on the experience of the seamstress, the fact that she has to provide the machine to perform the work, and that she will have to take time away from other activities to do the work. And, it's not really fair to undercut the woman who is trying to make a living doing alterations. Now, that said, as a professional seamstress (which I have been: quilting and bridal wear) I have made exceptions for individuals based on their economic situation, personal relationships, or whatever. My assumption when the question was asked was that this is just a neighbor--not a close friend or family member, that she has the money to pay a fair wage for the work and that this is just a business arrangement and therefore, the transaction can be priced just as any other seamstress would price it. Annie |
Go Annie! Denim and corduroy really can't just be folded up and stitched - they'll look like crap, and be very bulky to walk in. This is not a minor job, and I have dealt with neighbors and friends asking "Oh, can't you just turn it up a bit?" with slacks, with kid's clothes, and with bridesmaid dresses. Well, yes I can, but nobody seems to want to pay for my time. People think I should do this for free because the husband is a friend, the baby is cute, and the bridesmaids can't afford it. My charge for alterations is also $20/hour. Since I work out of my home, many think I'm not a "professional". If they don't like it they can go to a "professional". Close to me the professional (a commercial tailor/alteration house in the mall) charges a minimum of $35, plus the charge of the alteration. |

I had rather do a pair of dress pants any day than blue jeans. Blue jeans are a good way to make your machine jump time. I am in Alabama & things usually cost a bit less here than in other states. I was going into town the other day & saw a sign outside a dry cleaners advertizing a SPECIAL for 3 days of $7.50 & it said pants not jeans. I doubt they charge the same for jeans as dress pants. Now that kids wear their pants longer, I seldom get requests to shorten them. Some kids & adults won't wear them afterwards because it doesn't look original. They gripe about the thread or even the faded slash marks not being in the hem any longer from the special torture finishes they do to denim. I also ask for 3 washes & dryer dries before I attempt them even for those I REALLY love!!! When I do give in & shorten a pair, I leave enough fabric to turn under twice. At the seams, I trim out the seam allowance where it will be turned under on the first turn. I treat the cut edge that will be at the top edge of the hem with a good soaking of FrayChek. I use thread for jeans & hem from the outside. Breaking needles adds to the cost of hemming jeans too. |
I'd have to second Annie's comment. I have to make a living with my sewing. People are shocked when I ask for $10 to $14 a pair for hemming. I'm not retired, I have to put food on the table. As for: they can just be turned up and stitched: they are already three layers thick at the hem. Razoring out the old hem is a pain, and you have to, unless they're going to be shortened more than 2 inches. Doing alterations for next to nothing just encourages people to de-value the skill. And It's nice to think you're making extra money. But the extra lights on, the wear and tear on your machine, pressing the final result...you may charge $6, but you don't make $6. |

I'm so happy to read this post and hear from people who value their work. The problem where I am (NYC) is that there are a lot of people doing the same work and if someone doesn't like your price, they can go elsewhere, so take your area into consideration. My sister pays more upstate than we can charge down here simply because there's no one around doing the work. Jeans definitely need to cost more, they are more difficult to undo and resew and harder on any machine. And I can't stand to hear Oh, I can't pay $16 to replace a zipper, I only paid $10 for the jeans - yeah, that's why the zipper broke. A good jeans zipper can cost $6 by itself without one second of labor or one inch of thread added in. I know it's harder with friends and neighbors, just remember to respect yourself whatever price you end up charging. |

In my rural farming area, I get a lot of requests from old widowers about patching their jeans and coveralls. They are shocked when they learn that it's probably going to cost them $20-30 to have the knees patched up. They have no idea of the time involved, how expensive denim is, etc... "I could get a new pair for that!" Yep, and that's exactly what you should do. To tempt me away from my quilting jobs ($20/hour to machine quilt for people) you are going to have to pay me the same rate and it takes about an hour and a half to replace the knees on a pair of jeans by the time you've open the side seams on the legs, sewn on the patch and restitched the leg. One of the reasons that women's tasks are not valued by society is because we tend to underrate their value ourselves. For too long it's been thought that if a woman can do it, it must be EASY. NOT SO! My husband no longer asks me to mend his jeans, he knows how much work is involved and would rather I spent my time on other things. Annie |

All of your comments are why I don't *do* repairs and alterations - except for my immediate family, sons, parents, and sisters. Alterations ALWAYS take longer and are more of a hassle for me than I think they are going to be - ALWAYS! So I simply don't do them. I will do family a favor of an alteration/hemming if they ask, but I do not charge them. |
- Posted by joansews4u (My Page) on Sun, Nov 23, 08 at 17:06
I have books on alteration which has price sheets in the back for most all alterations. I have opened them up with "Let's look & see what that job is worth" & open it up & show them. I just need to see if the lady who wrote them will provide an updated price list. I have relatives in DC who have shown me items & quoted prices & the work was not quality work at all & the fees were very high. If you can get paid that much & do ship-shod work, it's robbery. I find the request for mending/repairs has dropped a lot over the years. Most requests are for "have to's" like pants or skirts being shortened. I have never figured out why people think things should be cheaper for kids clothes either. |
- Posted by mad_about_mickey (My Page) on Sun, Nov 23, 08 at 17:44
Well, thank you all for your input. I quoted them a price and the lady was upset because these are only for a preschooler ! to me, that makes it harder to hem as they are narrower. AND to top it off, these are top of the line BIG BRAND NAME kids jeans. I want to say Ralph Lauren, but I'm not sure that is the name. Thanks again. |
- Posted by damascusannie (My Page) on Sun, Nov 23, 08 at 18:21
No offense, but either she needs to buy clothing that fits the kid to begin with, settle for rolling up the cuffs, OR factor the alterations into the purchase price. I used to roll up the cuffs on my children's jeans because I knew that they would most likely get taller but not necessarily out-grow the waists and I didn't want permanent alterations that would actually shorten the usefulness of their pants. Annie |
Re: patching jeans. They're JEANS for goodness sake. If I need something to bang around in and get paint on and ruin, I go to Goodwill and get a pair for $5 or so. Pricing the alterations (or dry cleaning) would wisely be considered before you buy. As to the cost of an individual garment: It doesn't matter to me whether the customer purchased it a Harrod's of London, or Dillard's, or Macy's, or Salvation Army. The time and effort to perform a specific alteration is the same. (Are you listening, brides to be?) Work traditionally done by women is undervalued, and not always just by men. One woman described something she wanted done, and said, "You won't charge anything for that, will you?" Too bad neither of us were at our best that day. I meant to lighten the mood a little bit, and explain that nothing was free. Unfortunately, my response, "We're not the Sisters of Mercy, ma'am," peeved her instead. I did, in fact, occasionally do something for nothing at the dry cleaners. But 1) it would be for a customer who was in pretty often, and 2) it had to be a task which took less time to do than the man-hours needed to document the alteration in the system, and 3) so customer had to stand right there while I did it, so there was no labeling, hanging, bagging, etc. |

"We're not the Sisters of Mercy, ma'am" Oh dear, I can see how that might not have helped the situation, but it sure gave me a chuckle this morning! Annie |
I don't have the nerves to do any sewing for others, so I admire anyone who does. Once years ago, I was going to learn to cover lampshades, for myself. My friend was telling her her Mother who had more money than God and she so kindly showed up with two shades for me to 'practice on'. I did them because of my friend. When the lady came to get them she asked, "Now how much do I owe?' I told her, "You couldn't afford it." She didn't bring any more. |

Mad About Mickey - was the price you quoted something you held back on a bit, trying to be nice? That's my experience, no matter the price, they're not happy and if you're trying to do them a favor you end up twice as frustrated. But who buys big name brand jeans for little kids who'll outgrow them in five minutes? And you're right, those narrow little openings are harder. Evaf, you're my hero! I love that line. I just used to say if you like the (garment in question) and wear it a lot, it's worth it to you. I would try to picture these people arguing about prices at the supermarket or the gas station and know they couldn't pull it off while they don't mind trying it out on you. I had a similar breach of etiquette at my last office job when someone was on the phone giving me a list of who wanted an additional copy of their report: the president, the vice president, their secretaries, the comptroller, the bookkeeper, this manager, that manager, on and on. When he got past the 12th name on the list I just lost it and asked if his dog wouldn't like a copy, too. |

UGGGH ...again with the they tell me that they pay mega bucks for their clothes. They think that "oh you just need to fold it up and sew it & we'll mark where we want it" Ok, then have YOUR mother do it. If you can go to all that trouble, you can sit and hand sew them too. Sorry, I am getting a little disgruntled about this now..... |
- Posted by Virginia(email@example.com) onWed, Jan 5, 11 at 12:35
I don't get why other people can't do hem pants for themselves. If they can't or don't want to, then they should be willing to pay a fair price for the service! Six to ten dollars depending on the region sound fair to me! |
We used to have a young woman in town who ran "Magic Fingers"...(not a massage parlour). My husband was the absolute worst person at destroying jeans...He ran heavy equipment and all that on and off the machine, squatting, and just general working had a new hole or tear every week. I took her 2 or 3 grocery sacks full of jeans at a time to mend and she would fix every broken thread, I swear! Replaced zippers, patched holes, fixed torn out pockets...I think he wore those jeans until the patches made up 65% of the jeans... She never charged over $5. Unbelievable... I wish I could have her around now....Her husband was in the military and when he moved on, so did she... I do a lot of sewing for myself and everybody else. I have never quoted anyone a price for doing something, but most everyone has been very generous in what they gave me. I would sew if I had to pay to do it!! I would NOT however, mend jeans. Except for 1 pair in the last 10 years, I simply do not do that. You can buy work jeans for 10-12 bucks and it wouldn't be worth that much hassle to me...I keep a couple pairs ahead in a bag in the closet, and when something goes "out of service", they quietly disappear and the new ones move into the drawer... I loved his mother dearly, but I will not mend his jeans...she showed him how and as far as I am concerned, he can do it! |

I found this sight very useful to me. I am loosing my job this week and have decided to cash in on my talent of sewing and have decided to reserch how much to charge for certain tasks, hemming pants being the main one. I used to hem and charged 7 for jeans and 10 for dress pants and a little more if they are lined. It seams on this sight seamtress's are charing more for jeans. Have a great day. |
How much do the tailors in your area charge? You want to be competitive. In my area the tailors charge $5 to hem pants. Once in a while you will find someone that does it for $4. Good Luck |

I am in Alabama where prices fall far below other areas. My last check on local places was about a year ago $10-$12 to alter a waist on men's pants I didn't inquire about jeans because I try to stay away from them. |
- Posted by onefineseamstres (My Page) on Sun, May 8, 11 at 15:44
shops all have set prices for hems. Customers often and (rightly so) complain about hourly rates as it's often most unfair. The reason being is Some can turn out a lot of work in an hour. Sadly some can not. IF the home sewer is slow and unorganized, lack of experience (which experience speeds you up) why should a customer pay more for the slow? say...IF you charge $6 a pr for hems, you also do not "limit" your earnings. I've been sewing for yrs and I average $30 pr hr and up depending on what I'm sewing on. (Formal wear always earns you more) What a lot of folks do that sew at home for cash, is get an idea what the local dry cleaners charges for base alterations and under cut that price by just a little. 2 people could get a pr of pants to hem for $6. One can start to finish do a perfect job. 10 minutes. The other 25 minutes. The one taking much longer isn't really worth more because she is slower. Or because she uses a seam ripper picking loose stitch by stitch. |
- Posted by onefineseamstres (My Page) on Tue, May 17, 11 at 7:24
NO one should be charging by the hour unless they are a darn good and fast seamstress. WITH ALL the tailoring equipment available. Some people working off thier kitchen table are darn slow and not worth that price. I have 45 yrs experience and always average at least 20 per hr. On decor work I average closer to 40. I have averaged more, I have the right equipment..etc, and could hem quite a few pants in one hr. Often it's best to have a basic price list for basic alterations. You can always add on a little for "oddities" |
- Posted by socks12345 (My Page) on Tue, May 31, 11 at 22:45
My local tailor charges $9 to shorten my unlined slacks. I'm not sure how long it takes her, but not an hour that's for sure. Honestly, I think she's a little low. |

I want to make a new craftsman front door for my home. When I went to one of the larger hardwood dealers in the SF bay area and looked for 8/4 oak for it I looked through a lot of wood and could not find stock long enough or wide enough that was even close to straight and true. I have a jonter and planer so glue ups and milling are not a problem. Has anybody made a door by laminating 4/4 stock up to the 1 3/4 thickness needed for and exterior door? |

Very inadvisable. The stresses from laminating two boards and exposing them to extremes of heat and climate lead to great warping possibilities. The best old time thick doors were a poplar or white pine core with 1/8" hardwood veneer. In your case, you could resaw oak into 1/4" stock, laminate it to the core, then plane down to finished thickness. Unless your jambs are already determined, you could do a 2.25" door, which is a very substantial thickness. The softwood core winds up much lighter than solid hardwood, which means it's easier on the hinges in the long run. Casey |

The Pillowman
Martin McDonagh's overlong but disturbing shocker, set in a totalitarian police state, opens with a shortstory writer suffering interrogation by a couple of comic, brutal cops while his brother screams in agony in a cell next door.
If this sounds like a re-run of Harold Pinter's One For the Road played for laughs, it unfolds as a Gothic thriller told fairytale style, linking the writer's weird plots with copy-cat child maimings and murder, while McDonagh's dubious theme implies that no writer can achieve artistic fulfilment without first supping deep of childhood horrors.
John Crowley's imaginative staging employs terrifying cut-aways to a Harry Potter-ish home life - in which one boy is pampered, while another is given the full torturer's works by creepy, suburban parents - plus a dazzling picture-book sequence in which a child who thinks she is Jesus reincarnated, is crucified and buried alive in a glass coffin.
Down below in the interrogation chamber David Tennant's writer puts up a spirited case for his work, while Jim Broadbent's 'good cop' plays a brilliant cat and mouse game turning even the nastiest moments into droll comedy. But Nigel Lindsay's 'bad cop', fired by violent urges, proves to have the greater integrity. Adam Godley gives a cleverly observed performance as the writer's self-regarding, infantile brother.
Powerfully unsettling stage effects by American designer Scott Pask had people jumping out of their seats. Along the way one can also enjoy a half-dozen or more of McDonagh's chilling tales, craftily entwined with the action.
This show was reviewed prior to the website launch. A new review may be pending.

My point is, I detect a trend going on to try to boost confidence in the system. The government (Congress, at least) pretty much forced the independent accounting-standards board to change its rules to the benefit of banks and to the detriment of investors. The Obama administration hasn't exactly been true to his campaign-season pledges of transparency. At least two banks' accounting procedures have raised legitimate questions.
All this happy talk is counterproductive. What the markets need now is radical transparency, and journalists should demand it. If we find out things aren't that bad, prices bounce and we move on. If we find out (as I suspect) that they are, then we're force to take quick action to once and for all clean up the mess.
To be clear, I agree that the banks' situation improved considerably in the first quarter. I just think journalists need to be on top of what looks like a concerted effort to pretty things up to look better than they really are.

It's no question that Director Joe Johnston (The Wolfman, Jurassic Park III) took a couple of pages from his movie "Rocketeer" to help mold this coming-of-strength comic story into an action-filled period piece that jumps off the screen.
"Captain America" was so genuinely wholesome, you'll actually feel like you're watching a movie from the 1940s.
Johnston gets everything right with the overall feel and look of the film. Set in Brooklyn circa 1942, we see a frail and sickly Steve Rogers (Chris Evans) who continues to sign up for the army even after being denied multiple times. However, Rogers doesn't quit and eventually gets recruited by Dr. Abraham Erskine (Stanley Tucci) for the Super Solider Program. With help from the Dr. Erskine's Super Solider Serum and Howard Stark's (Dominic West) advanced machinery, a 90-pound Rogers is transformed to the muscle-bound, fast-footed Captain America.
I'm used to seeing Chris Evans in cockier roles, but in this film Evans is as humble and charming as he's ever been, especially as the softhearted and digitally shrunken version of Rogers. I thought the other cast members, who were used to more serious and responsible roles were going to shadow Evans, but that didn't happen; he held his role like it was as natural as breathing. So when he heads shield first into the fight against the Nazis' secret science group Hydra, he recruits his best friend Bucky Barnes (Sebastian Stan) who only builds on top of his already heroic stature.
Screenwriters Christopher Markus and Stephen McFreely changed Stan's character--which was typically written as Cap's sidekick within the Marvel universe--into a heartier, more brash solider. This works well for Stan and allows him to be the Bucky who trades quips and shoots sniper rifles, instead of the pint-sized kid who smiles while doing back-flips. Along with Bucky, Cap has the beautiful, tough, pistol-totting Agent Peggy Carter (Hayley Atwell) by his side. Carter plays her part expertly, not only as Rogers' cherry-red lipped love interest, but also as his brazen comrade.
The other supporting Allied soldiers (Col. Chester Phillips, played by Tommy Lee Jones, and slew of rag-tag "Howlin" commandos) share the same hard-nosed personas that make them just as dedicated as Cap to chasing down and destroying Hydra's evil leader Red Skull (Hugo Weaving).
Weaving is at home in his role and is no stranger to being a film's main antagonist. His character's sneering red face and eerie German accent give the actor a surprisingly creepy appeal over the film's mostly uplifting story.
The Red Skull's main goal is to use a mystical "Cosmic Cube" to harness God-like power, but this doesn't stop Cap from racing toward Red Skull with his unstoppable "vibranium" shield and iconic red, white and blue uniform, created by Starks Enterprise.
The 3D effect is almost useless for the film; it is Steve Rogers' modest upbringing and supernatural transition that drive the story. The action scenes are second only to Joe Simon and Jack Kirby's 70-year-old tale of a boy from Brooklyn who never gave in.
The film does a great job tying in the other movies from the Marvel Universe: showing Starks' role in the Super Soldier Program, the source of the Cosmic Cube and even a cameo by Nick Fury. Joss Whedon, the director of next May's "Avenger," has a good chance to present a cohesive story.

Common English Bible w/ Apocrypha (CEBA) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 The whole community of the Israelites assembled at Shiloh and set up the meeting tent there. The conquered land lay before them. | 1 The whole assembly of the Israelites gathered at Shiloh and set up the Tent of Meeting there. The country was brought under their control, |
2 Among the Israelites, seven tribes were left that had not yet received their legacy. | 2 but there were still seven Israelite tribes who had not yet received their inheritance. |
3 Joshua said to the Israelites, "How long will you avoid going to take over the land that the LORD, the God of your ancestors, has given you? | 3 So Joshua said to the Israelites: "How long will you wait before you begin to take possession of the land that the LORD, the God of your fathers, has given you? |
4 Pick out three men for each tribe. I will send them out, and they will go up and travel throughout the land. They will write a description of it as the basis for determining their legacy. Then they will come back to me. | 4 Appoint three men from each tribe. I will send them out to make a survey of the land and to write a description of it, according to the inheritance of each. Then they will return to me. |
5 They will divide up the land among themselves into seven portions. Judah will stay on its territory to the south. The house of Joseph will stay on their territory to the north. | 5 You are to divide the land into seven parts. Judah is to remain in its territory on the south and the house of Joseph in its territory on the north. |
6 But you will write a report in seven parts and bring the report back here to me. Then I will cast the lot for you here, before the LORD our God. | 6 After you have written descriptions of the seven parts of the land, bring them here to me and I will cast lots for you in the presence of the LORD our God. |
7 However, there won't be a portion among you for the Levites because their legacy is the priesthood of the LORD. Gad, Reuben, and half the tribe of Manasseh have already received their legacy on the east side of the Jordan. Moses the LORD's servant gave it to them." | 7 The Levites, however, do not get a portion among you, because the priestly service of the LORD is their inheritance. And Gad, Reuben and the half-tribe of Manasseh have already received their inheritance on the east side of the Jordan. Moses the servant of the LORD gave it to them." |
8 When the men had prepared to go, Joshua gave orders to those going to write a description of the land. "Go and travel around the land, write about it, and return to me. I will cast the lot for you before the LORD here in Shiloh." | 8 As the men started on their way to map out the land, Joshua instructed them, "Go and make a survey of the land and write a description of it. Then return to me, and I will cast lots for you here at Shiloh in the presence of the LORD." |
9 So the men went and passed through the land and wrote about it in a document, city by city, in seven sections. They came back to Joshua in the camp at Shiloh. | 9 So the men left and went through the land. They wrote its description on a scroll, town by town, in seven parts, and returned to Joshua in the camp at Shiloh. |
10 Then Joshua cast lots for them in Shiloh before the LORD. There Joshua divided up the shares of the land for the Israelites. | 10 Joshua then cast lots for them in Shiloh in the presence of the LORD, and there he distributed the land to the Israelites according to their tribal divisions. |
11 The lot for the clans of the Benjaminite tribe appeared first. The border of their allotment went out between the people of Judah and the people of Joseph. | 11 The lot came up for the tribe of Benjamin, clan by clan. Their allotted territory lay between the tribes of Judah and Joseph: |
12 Their border on the north side ran from the Jordan. The border went up to the slope of Jericho on the north. It went up westward in the highlands and ended at the wasteland of Beth-aven. | 12 On the north side their boundary began at the Jordan, passed the northern slope of Jericho and headed west into the hill country, coming out at the desert of Beth Aven. |
13 The border passed on from there to Luz, to the slope of Luz on the south (that is, Bethel). The border went down to Ataroth-adar on the mountain that is south of Lower Beth-horon. | 13 From there it crossed to the south slope of Luz (that is, Bethel) and went down to Ataroth Addar on the hill south of Lower Beth Horon. |
14 The border turned and came around southward on the west side, running from the mountain that is opposite Beth-horon on the south. It ended at Kiriath-baal (that is, Kiriath-jearim), a city of the people of Judah. This was its west side. | 14 From the hill facing Beth Horon on the south the boundary turned south along the western side and came out at Kiriath Baal (that is, Kiriath Jearim), a town of the people of Judah. This was the western side. |
15 The south side ran from the limits of Kiriath-jearim. The border went out westward. It then proceeded to the waters of Nephtoah Spring. | 15 The southern side began at the outskirts of Kiriath Jearim on the west, and the boundary came out at the spring of the waters of Nephtoah. |
16 The border went down to the foot of the mountain that is opposite the valley of the son of Hinnom, which is in the north part of the Rephaim Valley. It went down through the Hinnom Valley to the slope of the Jebusite city on the south. It then went down to En-rogel. | 16 The boundary went down to the foot of the hill facing the Valley of Ben Hinnom, north of the Valley of Rephaim. It continued down the Hinnom Valley along the southern slope of the Jebusite city and so to En Rogel. |
17 It turned northward. Then it went to En-shemesh and then to Geliloth, which is opposite the ascent of Adummim. It went down to the Stone of Bohan (Reuben's son). | 17 It then curved north, went to En Shemesh, continued to Geliloth, which faces the Pass of Adummim, and ran down to the Stone of Bohan son of Reuben. |
18 It passed on to the slope of Beth-arabah on the north and went down into the desert plain. | 18 It continued to the northern slope of Beth Arabah and on down into the Arabah. |
19 The border passed on to the slope of Beth-hoglah on the north. The border ended at the north bay of the Dead Sea, at the southern mouth of the Jordan. This was the southern border. | 19 It then went to the northern slope of Beth Hoglah and came out at the northern bay of the Salt Sea, at the mouth of the Jordan in the south. This was the southern boundary. |
20 The Jordan bordered it on the east side. This is the legacy of the Benjaminite clans according to its borders. | 20 The Jordan formed the boundary on the eastern side. These were the boundaries that marked out the inheritance of the clans of Benjamin on all sides. |
21 The cities of the clans of the Benjaminite tribe are Jericho, Beth-hoglah, Emek-keziz, | 21 The tribe of Benjamin, clan by clan, had the following cities: Jericho, Beth Hoglah, Emek Keziz, |
22 Beth-arabah, Zemaraim, Bethel, | 22 Beth Arabah, Zemaraim, Bethel, |
23 Avvim, Parah, Ophrah, | 23 Avvim, Parah, Ophrah, |
24 Chephar-ammoni, Ophni, and Geba. In total: twelve cities and their surrounding areas. | 24 Kephar Ammoni, Ophni and Geba--twelve towns and their villages. |

choir today. picture this: 4 seniors sitting in the back row. sean, mike, me and jake. i swear to god they are all gay if, you know, they weren't FUCKING THEIR GIRLFRIENDS EVERY FRICKIN' NIGHT! i mean, jake slaps me on the arse. i go "hang on, let me tense up so it feels muscular" so he spanks me again, and everytime i tense my arse cheeks more, he does it again. it got to the point where mike and jake both had their hands on my arse. jake then goes "oi feel mine." so i do and it is fuckin SOLID. he then told me how to get a muscular arse, and btw u apparantly have to do heaps of squats. i mean, what am i supposed to do? i get mixed messages all the time. i am given physical attention, then it gets snatched away. i know it just a hetero thing, but it pisses me off. i don't want sympathy, but can anyone understand how frustrating it is?
and bloody mike is pissing me off too. i get told that i'm someone he hopes to be friends with for the rest of his life, yet i get ditched all the time for his other jock friends. i mean, make up your fucking mind. i'm either your friend or i'm not. don't fucking ditch me all the time, or tell me that you'll pick me but never do. he didn't say one word to me the other day at this swim carnival i was doing leadership stuff at, eg cheer leading. he had a whole day to say hello, yet he never did, even though at one stage he was right behind me talking to a jock. bastard. however, i'm not making things easy for him all the time. i play hard to get (in the most strained sense of the phrase) but looking up at him and not returning a smile, or looking straight past him when he stares at me. he's such a cunt playing games with me. i reckon he's got to fucking know i'm gay and have this major thing for him, is he blind and fucking deaf? is he just toying with my emotions & playing little mind games, or does he enjoy the attention i give him? he must recognize that the attention i give him means something more.
i'm so tired mentally. i believe i'll finish off my art essay, which i got the extention for btw. good nite friends and lovers.
It's silly you know because all the straight kids want to touch each other as much as everyone else does. Think of it like chimps doing the whole grooming thing. Like, it's ok for the girls because they can paw each other with relative abandon but boys have got to macho-ify it.
And like in cultures where the boys and girls still can't mix easily, physical affection is just standard (ostensibly non-sexually) between same sex friends. When I was in India guys would be walking around holding hands like children do. But it's not all just repression and sublimation, people just want contact because we need it.
Minor lecture warning- but people just aren't thinking about each other most of the time, they just don't notice things at all. You'd be amazed at how little people notice each other. Boys notice even less than girls (because girls train from an early age to spot each other's weaknesses and live in a state of low-grade warfare from the ages of about 12 until god knows).
And you know the old cliche is so false sometimes, because often the words that are difficult to say (like admitting how much you depend on a friend) speak much, much louder than actions, which (when you're 16/17) are so often painfully forced and self-concious still.
Yea. I wish the boys in my school did that to me. There are groops of boys who do that to each other all of the time, and they're the jocks in our school. It's so fucking hot, and yet, I have a bit of a hard time, because they all know I'm gay, and I dunno, I'm scared to talki to them. ...Although one of them yesterday gave me a pat on the shoulder. THAT made me happy. Like, really happy. NEway, we don't have any class together, but he's nice to me. I dunno what to think of him. Usualy getting naked is my preference, but yea...
In anycase, I think that you may need to talk to this guy. If not about your feelings, then about how you feel like he's ignorong you. Guys are dumb sometimes. Usually, that's what makes us cute and endearing. Sometimes though, like in this case, it makes things fucking annoying and stupid. Maybe he doesn't know ANYTHING about how you feel. Not just emotional relationship wise, but how you feel about your friendship, like how you feel he's ignoring you. I dunno. I dunno. I know it's hard, though. E-mail/ message me sometime.
Guys are pretty confusing, and apparently drooling over them doesn't really break the ice...
Sadly its just a little bit of insecurity from straight people. Sportsmen are ven worse. It can be bloody annoying, but look on the bright side - you get to feel his ass
Which is the important thing
"Sexual intercourse began in nineteen sixty-three (which was rather too late for me)"
hahahah. yea, that would be the highlighted, important point...
Guys are pretty confusing, and apparently drooling over them doesn't really break the ice...
thanks everyone, you're all awesome. i need to look on the bright side.... i felt his arse.

An NFL draft prospect made history on Sunday.
Former Missouri defensive end Michael Sam became the first openly gay NFL draft prospect in league history.
Sam says he told his team he was gay last August.
He is a first team All-American and was the Associated Press' SEC Defensive Player of the Year.
"It's a load off my chest," Sam said in an interview with ESPN. "I told my teammates this past August, I came out to my teammates and they took it great. They rallied around me, they supported me and I couldn't ask for better teammates."
NBA player Jason Collins, who came out in 2013, revealed on twitter that he has talked with Sam.
Collins wrote:
"For the past 2 days I have met with @MikeSamFootball here in LA. He is a great young man who has shown tremendous courage and leadership."
If Sam is drafted, he could become the first openly gay player in NFL history.

Press Release, 11-49
USPTO Names Iowa Library to Support Intellectual Property Information Needs of Inventors and Entrepreneurs
First Center Focused Exclusively on Electronic Access and Training for Patent and Trademark Information
WASHINGTON – The United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) today announced the designation of Iowa's Davenport Public Library as a Patent and Trademark Resource Center (PTRC). As the 81st library in the nationwide network, Davenport marks Iowa's return to the PTRC program and serves as the first center geared away from the "paper depository" concept towards electronic access and training for patent and trademark information.
Replacing the State Library of Iowa, the former PTRC for the state, the Davenport Public Library will provide a place for Iowans to access patent and trademark information with the help of USPTO trained librarians. USPTO's Patent and Trademark Resource Center – formerly known as the Patent and Trademark Depository Library Program (PTDL) – is a nationwide network of public, state, special and academic libraries authorized to disseminate patent and trademark information and to support inventors, intellectual property attorneys/agents, business people, researchers, entrepreneurs, students, historians and the general public who are not able to come to USPTO's offices in Alexandria, Virginia.
Services at the libraries are free and include assistance in using patent and trademark information, training on USPTO databases and hosting public seminars on intellectual property topics for novice and experienced innovators. A list of the current PTRC libraries can be found on the USPTO website at www.uspto.gov/go/ptdl.
The resource center will open to the public on Thursday, September 8, 2011 and celebrate its grand opening with a free day-long seminar on patent and trademark information.
The Patent and Trademark Resource Center (PTRC) program began in 1871 when federal law first provided for the distribution of printed patents to libraries for use by the public. A list of all the current libraries can be found on USPTO's website at www.uspto.gov/products/library/ptdl/locations/index.jsp.

Maria Holland
Maria's interest in China was cultivated when she helped launch a student group at TU called SENEA (Sustainable Engineering for Needy and Emerging Areas), which connects sustainable and alternative energy technologies with the global community. SENEA's goal is to "promote the research, development, and implementation of engineering projects that directly improve the quality of life for impoverished people". Maria travelled with the group to the Jilin province in China to visit a farm that teaches sustainable agriculture practices to local farmers in the region. Due to this project and her interest in China, Maria won a scholarship award from the Chinese Scholarship Council that allowed her to directly enroll into Xiamen University in China for a year. She opted to take a year off from her engineering studies to focus solely on Chinese. Maria took a huge leap with her study abroad choices, and she is glad that she did. Her experience was often unstructured, but never boring. "I grew and learned a lot […and] my Chinese improved dramatically," said Maria.
Maria's advice to any students nervous about leaving the comforts of home: find a little bit of home in your host country. If something is a major part of your life in Tulsa, keep it up while abroad. Maria found dance classes and religious groups particularly helpful. Her shared interests with the people she met there led to quick friendships. "It's easier to build relationships if you genuinely have a connection," said Maria.
Today, Maria continues her studies in engineering at Stanford University. She is currently doing research in computational biomechanics and working towards a Master's degree. She plans to pursue a doctorate afterwards.

In order for the microorganisms in your pile to do their work they need water, a good mix of materials, and air.
To turn or aerate your compost, take a long-handled rake, pitchfork, compost bin aerator, or even a long stick and push it down into different parts of the pile to mix and "fluff" up the compost. Try moving the inside of the pile outward and the outer areas of the pile to the inside.
For the best results, turn your pile once every 2-4 weeks. When you turn the compost, you add air into your pile, distribute excess water, and speed up the decomposition process by providing the most contact between browns and greens. Compacted or soggy piles can produce unpleasant odors.
You can also speed up the decompositon process by cutting up large pieces of material, turning the pile more frequently, and watering as needed. If you choose this intensive approach, you could have finished compost in just 3 months! However, if you take a more relaxed approach by simply adding materials and turning sporadically, you will most likely not see finished compost within a year or more.

How to Wash Cloth Diapers for the first time
You finally decided on the perfect cloth diapers for your family. Your long awaited cloth diaper package has arrived! Now what?
Washing cloth diapers for the first time is simple, even for prefolds. Here are some tips for washing cloth diapers before using them.
- Always use a cloth diaper safe detergent when washing diapers. Never use fabric softeners of any kind.
Cotton Prefolds and Cotton Fitted Diapers
Cotton prefolds, such as Indian or Chinese prefolds, need to be washed 3 times before use. They will achieve maximum absorbency after about 6-8 washings, but they are fine to use after 3 washings if they are bleached. Natural, unbleached prefolds need to be washed at least 4 times before use to remove the natural oils found in the plant fibers.
Cotton fitted diapers also need to be washed 3 times before use to be sure they are absorbent.
Most washing instructions say that the cloth diapers need to be washed and dried before rewashing each time. I have washed thousands of prefolds for dying, and I no longer dry them between washings. This apparently has no effect on them as they are soft, fluffy and absorbent after just one trip through the dryer. Yes, I do use washing soda when dying diapers, but I have had just as good results with undyed diapers.
Hemp or Bamboo Prefolds or Fitteds
Hemp and bamboo are both eco-friendly fibers that are super absorbent. They both require 4 prewashes in warm water with 1/4 cup diaper safe detergent before use. Some manufacturers okay hot water and hot dryer, some do not, so be sure to look at the instructions. Hemp items should not be washed with pocket or fitted diapers for the first few washes, after they are prepped it is fine to wash everything together.
If you are washing just a few hemp items, it is fine to wash them with your whites for the prepping washes, as long as you use cloth diaper safe detergent and do not use any fabric softeners.
Pocket Diapers, Diaper Covers, Microfiber Inserts
These synthetic diapers usually require only one wash before use. Occasionally you will find a suedecloth lined diaper that needs an extra wash or two to remove manufacturing chemicals to avoid leaks.
Wet Bags, Diaper Pail Liners, Cloth Diaper Wipes
Wet bags and diaper pail liners do not have to be washed before use. If the wet bag or pail liner has a cotton print, it is a good idea to wash it once before use just in case the print has some extra dye in it.
Cloth wipes usually only need to be washed once before use. Hemp wipes will improve with 2-3 washings.
Washing cloth diapers for the first time doesn't need to be intimidating.

I had that compiled in. I also had it not compiled in. But I think that's the problem. It's not that it isn't shutting down, it's freezing without unmounting the filesystems (i.e. there is not [ok] at the end of the "Unmounting Filesystems" line). When I reboot, fsck forces a check on my root because of unproper dismounting. Any other ideas? Help ... I need somebody ... Help ... You know I need someone ... Helllllllp!

A year ago, I was honored to participate in the Human Resource Practices and Industrial Relations in Professional Sports ILR School Workplace Colloquium Series at the Cornell Club in New York City. Both Mr. Bettman and Mr. Manfred have spoken to our club separately in the past, but seeing them interact together and compare experiences added great insight to the relevant issues. Fortunately, video of these excellent remarks from Mr. Bettman and Mr. Manfred are posted online:
Questions discussed include:
- Do players unions more play the role of trade associations or vigilant protectors of worker's (player's) rights?
- How do labor and management bargain when the most relevant party -- the fans -- are not at the table?
- How was the 2004-5 NHL lockout different from the 1994-5 MLB strike? Should government intervene in a private dispute?
- Will MLB ever see a minimum payroll or international draft?
- Are professional sports leagues a single entity or competing teams? How does this distinction fit into antitrust law?
Keep in mind, of course, that Bettman and Manfred offer management perspectives. How might Donald Fehr, current NHLPA Executive Director and former MLBPA Executive Director, respond to their comments? Where would he agree or disagree?
These issues are extremely relevant for the NFL-NFLPA negotiations, as the NFLPA has threatened to sue the NFL under antitrust law and the NFL reacted by filing an unfair labor practice charge with the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) for failure to bargain in good faith. Both parties recently agreed to Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service (FMCS) mediation. FMCS Director (and Cornell undergrad and law alum) George Cohen has issued an introductory statement. Their collective bargaining agreement expires in less than two weeks. What, if anything, can the NFL and NFLPA learn from labor relations in hockey and baseball?
If non-ILRies have any questions on the terms used here, I'm happy to do my best to explain.

I'm a little curious about what the oldest one's version of "My Girls" would sound like.
Will you be accepting your award in person at the 2009 Gummy Commenters' Ball? Or should we just burn a tank of oxygen?
you don't even have to remember that far back to remember when he went all bonkers about how this sort of thing was crass commercialism and undermined his blabbitty bla:
fair warning: he can't spell very well
soft machine
soft boys
soft explosions
soft lightes
oh, and soft.
soft crystal wolf?
you can! just type it in there. there was a very small error that kept 30 rock from popping up, but it should be working now and all the write-ins for it are counted.
you just have to get a handful of people to enter her name the exact same way and it'll start popping up
if you're wondering why it's jamesiha.org and not jamesiha.com, you might want to check out the slightly peevish sales pitch at jamesiha.com, which can be yours for $20k:
"There is often a difference between Buyer and Seller price expectations. However this valuation was result of thoughtful appraisal and market situation. Therefore it is not likely that your lower offer would result in successful deal, more likely it will delay or even cancel possible negotiations. We encourage you to make reasonable offers."
Don't have $20k? The good news is, you (Billy) can take a shot at it for $801:
"We do not tolerate dubious and fraud offers. Please enter correct and authentic information. Offers under $800 US are not accepted by system and will not be reviewed"
Indy, shoot me an email at web ~at~ this site's url. i'm not sure why that's happening, but I'll look into it.

I have never had a problem saving pictures to my documents or pictures. Lately, when I try to save, I can't get them to go anywhere except 'attachments', which they are listed in 'folders', but when I try to attacht them you can't. I don't think 'attachments' save. Everything seems to be related to when I tried to download Mozilla so I could watch 'housetv'. I can't find a way to get rid of the things that downloaded then. I have I have HP Mini/IE/win7 home starter. Also, if something has been saved to 'pictures', and I want to move it to 'documents', how do I make the change? I am wondering if that would help.
Thank you. |
Follow-Up Postings:
forgot to add... When I tried to delete the Mozilla, as I have win7 starter, there isn't a 'date' to pick in control panel/add or delete downloads. How can I delete thing, and how do I know I got everything other than by the date that I tried to add Mozilla? There seemed to be so many things that downloaded (there ended up about 47 things that was on my desktop). I moved them to a single file, but that didn't delete them Nothing seems to delete them- my neighbor who is quite knowledgable about computers(she teaches at university level) can't figure it out either. Thanks |
Hi ilmbg, Try doing a System Restore instructions below, and a web link too. Navigate to the Start -> All Programs -> Accessories -> System Tools program group. Click on the System Restore program icon. Click Next > on the Restore system files and settings window. Choose the restore point that you want to use. Joe |

ok first of all if you actually had got firefox all you would have got was firefox so if you got something that put a bunch of other stuff on your desktop and elsewhere then you got a bad link that was not the legit firefox download. Try to do the restore as Joe said before you installed the firefox. either way you need to run an updated malwarebytes scan immediately. I would also run a free updated superantispyware scan. We recently had some posts on how careful one has to be now when doing downloads because even sites that once were safe to download from are no longer trustworthy and we are seeing a lot of people ending up with something other than what they wanted. Do you remember where you got the download for mozilla firefox? both are free install update and run full scans let us know what was found. |
systems restore still won't work with the info you gave me. Someone at the computer store couldn't figure it out either. When I go system properties/turn on system restore it goes back to 'your system restore is not turned on'. Then I click on the system properties/turn on and it keeps doin the cycle. I can't ever get to a calender to turn it on/back to a date. Now what??! Thanks |

Yes it sounds like you have an infection, the ones that disable system restore are difficult to clean, I highly recommend you go to LzD forum and have the team help you run some special scans to fully remove it from your system. Register there start your own thread telling what has happened, don't follow instructions given for any one else. Post to the area I link to. |

Mac Mini, accompanied by Snow Leopard - MC438LL/A– is designed to function as a server. It comes with two hard drives of 500 GB and 7200 rpm. This offers ample storage that can be used by a work group or a small business. It is capable of handling computing tasks quite efficiently. The Mac Mini has client licenses that are limitless.
It allows users to easily and securely swap and access files. This can be carried out between Macs and PCs. The Mac Mini enables the creation of podcasts and wikis (full-featured). The server is ideal for sharing e-mails and calendars among users who are part of the work group. This helps to efficiently organize and conduct small businesses. With this server, users can automatically back-up crucial data. This function is facilitated by Time Machine.
The MC438LL/A Mac Mini model comes with a fast Core 2 Duo processor from Intel and a next-gen 320M graphics card from NVIDIA GeForce. In addition, the server ships with a RAM of 4GB that can be upgraded to 8GB, and dual hard drives of 500GB. Apple pre-loads its Snow Leopard operating system in the MC438LL/A. With it, the server has 64 bit power and speed that is twice as much as that in its older version.
The Mac Mini sports a small unibody form - one that is smaller than that of its predecessor by 20%. It has a square footprint of 7.7 inches. Mac Mini's integrated power supply is enclosed in its aluminum case. This means that users don't have to attach an external power brick to run the server. This is yet another difference between the MC438LL/A and its predecessor.
To know more about the Mac Mini, for server rentals, contact Vernon Computer Source.
