Robin Godwin Sentenced In Bank Of Brewton Robbery
Kenyen Brown, U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Alabama, announces that defendant Robin Godwin, who previously pled guilty to being involved in the February 17, 2012 robbery of the Bank of Brewton, has been sentenced to 18 months in prison and required to pay $124,026.00 in restitution.
On October 17, 2012, Robin Godwin pled guilty to one count of stealing from a bank. As part of the plea agreement, Godwin admitted to the following facts:
Prior to February 17, 2012, Godwin and co-defendant Pamela Steele formulated a plan to rob the Bank of Brewton, which is where Steele worked as a teller. On February 17, 2012, Godwin entered the Bank of Brewton and walked up to Steele's teller window. Godwin disguised her true appearance by wearing a blue poncho, grey fedora, black gloves, khaki pants, large sunglasses, a black Afro wig, black face paint, and body padding. Godwin asked Steele about renting a safety deposit box, so Steele took Godwin into the bank vault to look at the various box sizes available. While in the vault, Godwin pulled a large bag out from under her poncho and demanded that Steele fill it with cash. At this point, Steele filled th bag with approximately $255,000 in cash. Thereafter, Godwin fled the bank with the bag full of money.
Two months after the robbery, Steele confessed and led the FBI and local law enforcement to Godwin. Approximately half of the stolen money was recovered.
Co-defendant Pamela Steele has already been sentenced to 12 months and a day for her role in this offense.
This matter was investigated by the Escambia County Sheriff's Office and the FBI offices Monroeville, Mobile, and Pensacola. The case was prosecuted by the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of Alabama.

Optus Internet
The recent Optus outages and slowdowns are totally unacceptable. We are paying top dollar for internet access, be that ADSL or Cable.
Why should we be paying for "Speed Packs" when the best speeds we are getting so far this year (2014) is 100KB/s
I plan on getting this petition out to as many people as possible and making Optus financially pay for this. The only way a company learns is when their bottom line hurts.
Sign the petition and let's force them to fix this service once and for all.

The snow melted and I found something (critter?) destroyed my lawn. Can you help identify what did it to help in the future and recommend best repair process. Do I reseed this spring? This lawn is about 4 years old, from sod, was very healthy in the fall and I did put down a winter fertilizer in November. |
Follow-Up Postings:
That looks like Skunk damage. Happened to me last fall, seems like you had/have a good amount of grubs. You might not be able to see grubs just yet as they're still hidden deep under for protection from the cold, the best thing you can do is wait until mid June to beginning of July to apply GrubEx from Scotts which is a grub preventer, or you can try a killer from Bayer which uses a chemical I believe was called "Sevin". Or you can do research on a long term prevention called "Milky Spore" but first check to see if they're grubs, skunks btw are nocturnal and only come out at night. If there food source is gone (grubs) chances are the skunk won't return anymore |

[383] Diagnostic Accuracy of Fine-Needle Aspiration Biopsy of the Parapharyngeal Space
AT Arnason, RD Hart, JG Nasser, JR Trites, SM Taylor, MJ Bullock. Dalhousie University, Halifax, NS, Canada
Background: Fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNA) of the parapharyngeal space (PPS) is a diagnostic challenge. Sampling is difficult (often trans-oral FNA), primary PPS tumors are rare, and there is a broad differential diagnosis, including salivary gland, neurogenic, carotid body, lymphoreticular, and soft tissue tumors. PPS FNA has rarely been studied, with only four series of more than 20 cases, all from major referral centers, reporting high rates of diagnostic accuracy (87-100% accuracy, sample size 24 to 63 FNAs). It is unclear whether this high rate of diagnostic accuracy can be achieved in a smaller tertiary care centre with fewer CT-guided FNAs and a lower volume of routine head and neck cytology.
Design: Pathology records from our institution (an 1100 bed Canadian academic tertiary care centre) were searched to identify all patients who underwent PPS FNA from Sept. 1991 to Aug. 2009. Records were reviewed for all cases. The FNA diagnosis was compared to the gold standard of subsequent histopathology or long term clinical follow up.
Results: 27 patients (12 male, 15 female, mean age 53 years) had 36 FNAs (9 patients had repeat FNAs). 33 FNAs were office based and 3 were done under image guidance. 11/36 (31%) FNAs were non-diagnostic. In the 25 diagnostic FNAs, there was sensitivity 89%, specificity 94%, PPV 89%, NPV 94%, and accuracy 92% for the diagnosis of positive or negative for malignancy. A correct specific diagnosis (e.g. "schwannoma") was made in 9/25 (36%) cases. The non-diagnostic rate was significantly higher (p<0.025) in FNAs prepared as conventional smear cytology (9/17 = 53%) versus liquid based ThinPrep cytology (2/19 = 11%). A specific diagnosis was made significantly more often (p<0.05) with ThinPrep (8/19 = 43%) versus conventional (1/17 = 5.9%). Comments about specimen quality were less frequent with ThinPrep (2/19 = 11%) than with conventional (8/17 = 47%), where obscuring blood and degeneration were frequently cited by pathologists. One minor complication from FNA occurred, temporary facial nerve palsy secondary to xylocaine.
Conclusions: Our institution has a high rate of diagnostic accuracy for classifying PPS FNAs as benign or malignant, but a lower rate of reporting a specific diagnosis. Non-diagnostic FNAs are frequent and occur more often with conventionally prepared smears than with ThinPrep. Improved specimen quality with ThinPrep seems to be a factor, but other confounding variables not studied here may contribute to this difference.

"I am assured that this ministry will continue in the second generation, and I pray in the third as well, if Jesus tarries. We will experience success in our efforts to reach those million souls for Christ, if we continue to carry the same vision and consecration.
"Men who do not make provision for successors in business or ministry often leave behind problems that someone else has to clear up. Either that, or they leave no business or ministry at all. I feel that God will give a smooth transition for my successors, as I have provided them with an organization that can expand and grow. Instead of a mess, I will leave behind a well-organized, expertly managed evangelistic ministry. My sons will not have to struggle to match my accomplishments in the ministry either. They have developed a working relationship together that will far exceed anything I could accomplish alone.
"I can imagine my sons facing some dilemma in the ministry and asking one another, 'What would Dad have done in this situation?' I wish I could leave behind all the answers, but I cannot. In fact, that will not be necessary. I know the Holy Spirit is already guiding my sons as He has guided me. They will always have Him to turn to whenever they are not sure of the way. Good-bye, planet Earth! It's been nice knowing you." - Lester Sumrall

Two weeks back I came up with a post showcasing logos of all the capable cities bidding for 2016 Olympics "2016 Summer Olympic Logos – May the best logo win!!". However, this Friday decision was taken and Rio de Janeiro was opted as the host city for 2016 Olympics among strong contestants like Madrid and Chicago. With this announcement, Rio de Janeiro has won the title of being the first South American city to host the Olympic Games. Well, this time, the treat is double for Brazil globally…It will host the 2014 World Cup and 2016 Olympics, two of the greatest events in the world of sport. The Brazilian president Luis Inacio "Lula" da Silva, said some historical words while making a vain attempt of stopping his tears:
"It's a dream that we are dreaming for several years," the president said. "We worked hard to make it to this point and it's the greatest sensation ever to see the success of the project Rio 2016, if I die tomorrow, I'll certainly die satisfied." |
The selection of Rio over strong contenders like Chicago and Madrid, was not an easy task for the International Olympic Committee (IOC). US President Barack Obama had flown to Denmark on Friday morning to join his wife, Michelle and for the first time a current US president addressed the IOC in an attempt to win the Games. However, Chicago's early elimination with only 18 of the 94 votes in the first round poll of IOC delegates, was quiet surprising. The second city to be eliminated of the polling was Tokyo with 20 votes, leaving the competition between Madrid and Rio de Janeiro. The final ballot saw Rio win by a comprehensive margin of 66 votes to 32.

Thrifty Green Thursday is the perfect place to consider a whole new version of sustainability that involves both your wallet and your green values. If cost wasn't an issue, many Americans would love to eat organic food and use expensive eco-friendly cleaning products.
Since our economy is struggling and prices are soaring, it sometimes feels as though green products will only reach those that can afford them. That's where economic offsetting can come in very handy.
Here's how it works: make frugal choices to reduce your household costs and then apply that extra money to spendier eco-friendly items. For example, using hand-me-downs for baby can provide hundreds of dollars for organic strawberries and eco-friendly detergent. (Hint: Rebecca discovered that eco-friendly detergent is actually cheaper than mainstream brands!) Switching from prepared green cleaning products to homemade versions can possibly even offset the cost of a high quality wooden toy—especially when you find that toy used at a consignment shop.
What about the family who's already shopping at thrift stores, growing their own food, and using hand-me-downs? Or the single parent who is working three jobs to make ends meet? There may not be a way to offset very tight budgets, but if you're interested in extreme savings, you might want to check out Amy Dacyzyn's Tightwad Gazette. After reading it, you may be motivated to go for home haircuts, recycled oatmeal muffins, and other creative solutions.
Keep visiting us on Thrifty Green Thursday. You'll get plenty of tips for offsetting the cost of those eco-friendly items—and you'll get them from people who have tried it themselves.
In our comments section, you'll find links to other bloggers' Thrifty Green Thursday submissions. Go here for more information on how to join the Thrifty Green Thursday blog carnival. And don't worry–we're planning on getting a better system (such as Mr. Linky) for this blog carnival very soon!
Grocery prices got you down?
Organic foods seem out of your budget?
Join a co-op and buy natural foods in bulk. Order ahead and get what you'd need for a month, and you'll always have the staples at hand, being thrifty at the same time.

This year, I'm trying to reduce my home's electric and natural gas consumption by 20% and to it in a green and thrifty way. Here's an update on my projects and progress for the first 6 months of the year. http://condo-blues.blogspot.com/2008/08/twenty-percent-home-energy-reduction.html
I've been shifting towards eco-friendly cleaning and hygiene products for a long time now. I've found that they're cheaper, work just as well, and I actually need very little – as opposed to the piles of products I used to have under my sinks and in my cabinets. I just hope Costco doesn't stop carrying huge jugs of vinegar and bags of baking soda! Next up… I'm going to try using baking soda in the dishwasher instead of commercial soap.
Being thrifty and green no longer means living with the same old look and same old decorations day in and day out. Get inspiration for a Thrifty Green Room Makeover here: http://kelliebrown.blogspot.com/2008/08/design-on-dime-bathroom-edition.html
Our thrifty green tip is to use cheapo washcloths for cleaning rags. They last forever. We bought our first set five years ago and are still using them for just about everything. Saves a ton of money on paper towels, that's for sure. Here's the link:
Thank you for those tips.
We really don't have much money so it is great to find new ways to continue spending green the green way.
Visit my website and go under the camping section. There is a great tip on how to convert a adult sleeping bag into a child sized one. This way you don't buy another product and re-used a bag that had a broken zipper or lost it's loft.
Consigning your uneeded baby clothes, toys and equipment through JBF Sales is a great way to make a little money to spend on more expensive eco-friendly purchases.
Our contribution this week is a simple one: the library! It's full of free books and everything there is recycled: http://carfreewithkids.blogspot.com/2008/08/i-love-library.html
I love this idea! After reading Omnivore's Dilemma and In Defense of Food, I am going to try to get my produce exclusively from a CSA (share of local farm crop). I also want to switch to range-fed eggs, but they are almost twice as much as the organic eggs I buy now (which are not so cheap either). And some day I'd like to buy only organic chicken and range-fed beef. But it's all so expensive. But I have a goal to grow my own garden (when I live somewhere where I can), and right now I'm going to start grinding my own wheat to make my own bread and I want to make my own beans too (instead of canned). I hope to eventually cut out almost all processed food from our family diet. I spend a lot at the grocery store, but we also almost never eat out. So I feel like maybe we spend about the same on food as other American families. Maybe a bit more.
Food and health are priorities, so I try to skimp in other areas. Walking instead of driving, showering and laundering less often, etc. I'm going to try cloth diapers now too (even though my baby is already one), and that should save some dough in the long run too. I also recently decided to go through my personal products b/c of ingredient concerns and found that I could really do without almost all of them. I love it when eco-friendly also is cheaper and simpler!

To earn UMass Lowell Commonwealth Honors Designation, an Honors Student must submit and defend either an Honors Project or an Honors Thesis.
The Honors Thesis Experience is typically a twelve-month, two-semester, six-credit research process that produces a final document referred to as the Honors Thesis. The Honors Thesis is a substantial, written piece of work created by a single individual under the guidance of a thesis advisor. Students pursuing an Honors Thesis would normally enroll for two semesters of independent study. An Honors Thesis has either a well-structured thesis statement or hypothesis that is then defended by analysis and argument. Such defense is supported by the interpretation of data or careful analysis and interpretation of primary source materials. Data can be collected in a variety of ways including experimentation or via surveys. The goal of the Honors Thesis is to create new knowledge.
Whether the honors student does an Honors Project or an Honors Thesis, the student must find an Honors Project/Thesis advisor and form a Thesis/Project committee consisting of two members. The student will need to formally present the project or thesis work to the committee.

As a family man with 2 kids, I'm constantly looking for possibilities to improve my family life and one question I've always had on my mind is; How can I show my family that I love them? I found 1001 possibilities for demonstrating it but by far the most efficient, elegant and direct way seemed to be simply to say; "I love you". So I decided to test the theory and I shaped a new habit and repeatedly told my wife and kids, many times throughout the day, that I loved them, hoping that this statement, repeated with frequency, would have a huge, positive impact on our family life. That was the theory anyway! Soon I realized that the "I love you" phrase became like the "thank you" phrase. The "thank you" phrase is necessary for polite interaction but it's mostly noticed when it's missing. In other words, if it's expected from me that I say "thank you" and I don't say it, that's where it's missed and actually becomes a negative.
Since the "I love you" phrase has become over-used and abused by the advertisers (at least in the English language), saying it repeatedly to my family members had little or no impact. So I started doubting whether saying "I love you" was really improving my family life. As it wasn't having the desired effect, should I drop it and reduce the amount of "I love yous" in my daily life? But then, what if my family perceived it as a sudden drop in the level of my love or caring for them, especially my young children? This led me to thinking that getting rid of it wasn't an option. So what was next? Should I then double or triple my efforts by leaving notes or even calling (my wife) with my "I love you" phrase? These questions gave me headaches for some time during which I stuck with my new, what I believed to be positive, habit.
…And then, I found the solution which had always been right in from of me. It is not always important what or how often we say something but HOW it is said! I immediately started working on the HOW part. I rehearsed new, in-depth ways of saying my "I love you" phrase (often in front of a mirror like a real actor :-)) and then consciously watched the reactions to different approaches.
I soon became aware of the following;
- Each member of my family (my wife, daughter, son) has a different way of perceiving and evaluating the importance of information (my "I love you" phrase)
- I must pick the right time of the day to say something meaningful (especially with my wife
- I must feel it at the same moment of saying it
So, what did I learn;
- I can forget rehearsing and researching ways of saying something significant and deep-meaning to someone I love, rather I must feel it and say it when it suits THEM.
- If I don't feel deep love at a particular moment, I shouldn't express how I feel. Again, it's better to chose the right moment for me and my family members and ignoring this only introduces more confusion rather than having a positive impact. This particular discovery was strengthen after reading Joshua Becker's Plain, Honest Speech in his e-book "Simplify"
- I must take my time to say it. This means, let my family members anticipate what I want to say and how much it means to me.
- Finally, and perhaps most importantly, "I love you" should never be allowed to become an automatic phrase that's said without thought or feeling. It should be said because it's appropriate to the person and to the moment.
By applying what I've learned and forming the right "I love you" habit, I must say that this time I believe I've reached my objective. While striving to be better husband and dad, my family knows that I love them and that my love is unconditional. Hopefully this insight helps them start the day with more happiness and a positive attitude.

I LIKE SPIKE: A SPIKE LEE INTERVIEW (part 2)
I've read a few reviews of Bamboozled that have criticized the shot-on-digital film look – I think it adds to the film's realism, was that your intention? ^ We thought that too. Plus, we didn't have the money to shoot 35mm.
Could you imagine the very same film, same script, same actors shot in glorious 35mm, looking pretty? Wouldn't it have diluted the message? ^ It (the digital image) made it a lot harsher, that's for sure. (LAUGHS) I think that's right, it would have softened the message and taken some of its power away.
With regard to Black culture, I want to applaud you for the following quote you said on television, "Appreciation, not appropriation." I personally find it irritating to see white kids going around trying to be Black. ^ I'd like to say this: It's a thin line, because I think culture is there for everyone to enjoy, (and) to embrace. But this is just me thinking, if young white kids want to embrace black culture, I don't think the best thing to take from us is walking around with your pants down below your ass and calling each other nigger. We got better things that they can embrace.
Right. I think it would be as ridiculous as if young African American kids were dressing in green and speaking with Irish accents. ^ (BIG LAUGH!) This whole country is in an identity crisis. That's what it is.
Which isn't so bad, because those questions need to be asked. Debra Wilson, from MAD TV, calls the kinds of stereotyped characters seen so often on TV "blackity-black-black." How do you change that? ^ (LAUGHS) You change it by getting into those positions of the gatekeepers, the people who decide this show's getting made and this show's not getting made. The decision-making positions.
You know you mentioned that Bamboozled almost didn't get made. Is it that difficult to get financing? Does it come down to the gatekeepers with the money that decide what gets made, what gets put on prime time TV? ^ That's what it comes down to, and we're not in those positions. Of all the Wesley Snipes and the Denzel's and the Will Smith's and Chris Tucker's and Martin Lawrence and everybody, those are just actors. We're not in those positions at the studio's that say "Alright I'm making this."
There's the perception that you "hate white people." I've been following your career from the beginning, I've seen your films, I don't get that. Why do you think that there's this misunderstanding? ^ The easiest way to dismiss my work, especially work that deals with racism, is to call me a racist. Therefore, my work has no merit, because how can he be talking about racism when he's a racist himself? You know the old trick. But I think people are really smart, they're not going for that shit.

A Billion Wicked Thoughts: What the Internet Tells Us About Sexual Relationships (Google eBook)The Book on Sex Want to know what really turns your partner on? A Billion Wicked Thoughts offers the clearest picture ever of the differences between male and female sexuality and the teeming diversity of human desire. What makes men attracted to images and so predictable in their appetites? What makes the set up to a romantic evening so important for a woman? Why are women's desires so hard to predict? Neuroscientists Ogi Ogas and Sai Gaddam reveal the mechanics of sexual relationships based on their extensive research into the mountains of new data on human behavior available in online entertainment and traffic around the world. Not since Alfred Kinsey in the 1950s has there been such a revolution in our knowledge of what is really going on in the bedroom. What Ogas and Gaddam learned, and now share, will deepen and enrich the way you, and your partner, think and talk about sex. |

The danger of luxury and false security. (1-7) Punishments of sins. (8-14)
Verses 1-7 Those are looked upon as doing well for themselves, who do well for their bodies; but we are here told what their ease is, and what their woe is. Here is a description of the pride, security, and sensuality, for which God would reckon. Careless sinners are every where in danger; but those at ease in Zion, who are stupid, vainly confident, and abusing their privileges, are in the greatest danger. Yet many fancy themselves the people of God, who are living in sin, and in conformity to the world. But the examples of others' ruin forbid us to be secure. Those who are set upon their pleasures are commonly careless of the troubles of others, but this is great offence to God. Those who placed their happiness in the pleasures of sense, and set their hearts upon them, shall be deprived of those pleasures. Those who try to put the evil day far from them, find it nearest to them.
Verses 8-14 How dreadful, how miserable, is the case of those whose eternal ruin the Lord himself has sworn; for he can execute his purpose, and none can alter it! Those hearts are wretchedly hardened that will not be brought to mention God's name, and to worship him, when the hand of God is gone out against them, when sickness and death are in their families. Those that will not be tilled as fields, shall be abandoned as rocks. When our services of God are soured with sin, his providences will justly be made bitter to us. Men should take warning not to harden their hearts, for those who walk in pride, God will destroy.
Amos 6:1-14 . DENUNCIATION OF BOTH THE SISTER NATIONS (ESPECIALLY THEIR NOBLES) FOR WANTON SECURITY--ZION, AS WELL AS SAMARIA: THREAT OF THE EXILE: RUIN OF THEIR PALACES AND SLAUGHTER OF THE PEOPLE: THEIR PERVERSE INJUSTICE.
1. named chief of the nations--that is, you nobles, so eminent in influence, that your names are celebrated among the chief nations [LUDOVICUS DE DIEU]. Hebrew, "Men designated by name among the first-fruits of the nations," that is, men of note in Israel, the people chosen by God as first of the nations ( Exodus 19:5 ; compare Numbers 24:20 ) [PISCATOR].
to whom . . . Israel came--that is, the princes to whom the Israelites used to repair for the decision of controversies, recognizing their authority [MAURER]. I prefer to refer "which" to the antecedent "Zion" and "Samaria"; these were esteemed "chief" strongholds among the heathen nations "to whom . . . Israel came" when it entered Canaan; Amos 6:2 accords with this.
2. Calneh--on the east bank of the Tigris. Once powerful, but recently subjugated by Assyria ( Isaiah 10:9 ; about 794 B.C.).
Hameth--subjugated by Jeroboam II ( 2 Kings 14:25 ). Also by Assyria subsequently ( 2 Kings 18:34 ). Compare Amos 6:14 .
Gath--subjugated by Uzziah ( 2 Chronicles 26:6 ).
be they better--no. Their so recent subjugation renders it needless for Me to tell you they are not. And yet they once were; still they could not defend themselves against the enemy. How vain, then, your secure confidence in the strength of Mounts Zion and Samaria! He takes cities respectively east, north, south, and west of Israel (compare Nahum 3:8 ).
3. Ye persuade yourselves that "the evil day" foretold by the prophets is "far off," though they declare it near ( Ezekiel 12:22 Ezekiel 12:27 ). Ye in your imagination put it far off, and therefore bring near violent oppression, suffering it to sit enthroned, as it were, among you ( Psalms 94:20 ). The notion of judgment being far off has always been an incentive to the sinner's recklessness of living ( Ecclesiastes 8:12 Ecclesiastes 8:13 , Matthew 24:48 ). Yet that very recklessness brings near the evil day which he puts far off. "Ye bring on fever by your intemperance, and yet would put it far off" [CALVIN].
4. (See Amos 2:8 ).
beds of ivory--that is, adorned, or inlaid, with ivory ( Amos 3:15 ).
stretch themselves--in luxurious self-indulgence.
lambs out of the flock--picked out as the choicest, for their owners selfish gratification.
5. chant--literally, "mark distinct sounds and tones."
viol--the lyre, or lute.
invent . . . instruments . . . like David--They fancy they equal David in musical skill ( 1 Chronicles 23:5 , Nehemiah 12:36 ). They defend their luxurious passion for music by his example: forgetting that he pursued this study when at peace and free from danger, and that for the praise of God; but they pursue for their own self-gratification, and that when God is angry and ruin is imminent.
6. drink . . . in bowls--in the large vessels or basins in which wine was mixed; not satisfied with the smaller cups from which it was ordinarily drunk, after having been poured from the large mixer.
chief ointments--that is, the most costly: not for health or cleanliness, but wanton luxury.
not grieved for the affliction of Joseph--literally, "the breach," that is, the national wound or calamity ( Psalms 60:2 , Ezekiel 34:4 ) of the house of Joseph ( Amos 5:6 ); resembling in this the heartlessness of their forefathers, the sons of Jacob, towards Joseph, "eating bread" while their brother lay in the pit, and then selling him to Ishmaelites.
7. Therefore . . . shall they go captive with the first--As they were first among the people in rank ( Amos 6:1 ), and anointed themselves "with the chief ointments" ( Amos 6:6 ), so shall they be among the foremost in going into captivity.
banquet--literally, the "merry-making shout of revellers"; from an Arabic root, "to cry out." In the Hebrew, marzeach; here, there is an allusion to mizraqu, "bowls" ( Amos 6:6 ).
them that stretched themselves--on luxurious couches ( Amos 6:4 ).
8. the excellency of Jacob--( Psalms 47:4 ). The sanctuary which was the great glory of the covenant-people [VATABLUS], ( Ezekiel 24:21 ). The priesthood, and kingdom, and dignity, conferred on them by God. These, saith God, are of no account in My eyes towards averting punishment [CALVIN].
hate his palaces--as being the storehouses of "robbery" ( Amos 3:10 Amos 3:15 ). How sad a change from God's love of Zion's gates ( Psalms 87:2 ) and palaces ( Psalms 48:3 Psalms 48:13 ), owing to the people's sin!
the city--collectively: both Zion and Samaria ( Amos 6: Amos 6:1 ).
all that is therein--literally, "its fulness"; the multitude of men and of riches in it (compare Psalms 24:1 ).
9. If as many as ten ( Leviticus 26:26 , Zechariah 8:23 ) remain in a house (a rare case, and only in the scattered villages, as there will be scarcely a house in which the enemy will leave any), they shall all, to a man, die of the plague, a frequent concomitant of war in the East ( Jeremiah 24:10 , 44:13 , Ezekiel 6:11 ).
10. a man's uncle--The nearest relatives had the duty of burying the dead ( Genesis 25:9 , 35:29 , Judges 16:31 ). No nearer relative was left of this man than an uncle.
and he that burneth him--the uncle, who is also at the same time the one that burneth him (one of the "ten," Amos 6:9 ). Burial was the usual Hebrew mode of disposing of their dead. But in cases of necessity, as when the men of Jabesh-gilead took the bodies of Saul and his three sons from the walls of Beth-shan and burned them to save them from being insulted by the Philistines, burning was practised. So in this case, to prevent contagion.
the bones--that is, the dead body ( Genesis 50:25 ). Perhaps here there is an allusion in the phrase to the emaciated condition of the body, which was little else but skin and bones.
say unto him that is by the sides of the house--that is, to the only one left of the ten in the interior of the house [MAURER] (compare Note,
Hold thy tongue . . . we may not . . . mention . . . the Lord--After receiving the reply, that none is left besides the one addressed, when the man outside fancies the man still surviving inside to be on the point, as was customary, of expressing devout gratitude to God who spared him, the man outside interrupts him, "Hold thy tongue! for there is not now cause for mentioning with praise ( Joshua 23:7 ) the name of Jehovah"; for thou also must die; as all the ten are to die to the last man ( Amos 6:9 ; compare Amos 8:3 ). Formerly ye boasted in the name of Jehovah, as if ye were His peculiar people; now ye shall be silent and shudder at His name, as hostile to you, and as one from whom ye wish to be hidden ( Revelation 6:16 ), [CALVIN].
11. commandeth, and he will smite--His word of command, when once given, cannot but be fulfilled ( Isaiah 55:11 ). His mere word is enough to smite with destruction.
great house . . . little house--He will spare none, great or small ( Amos 3:15 ). JEROME interprets "the great house" as Israel, and "the small house" as Judah: the former being reduced to branches or ruins, literally, "small drops"; the latter, though injured with "clefts" or rents, which threaten its fall, yet still permitted to stand.
12. In turning "judgment (justice) into gall (poison), and . . . righteousness into hemlock" (or wormwood, bitter and noxious), ye act as perversely as if one were to make "horses run upon the rock" or to "plough with oxen there" [MAURER]. As horses and oxen are useless on a rock, so ye are incapable of fulfilling justice [GROTIUS]. Ye impede the course of God's benefits, because ye are as it were a hard rock on which His favor cannot run. "Those that will not be tilled as fields, shall be abandoned as rocks" [CALVIN].
13. rejoice in a thing of naught--that is, in your vain and fleeting riches.
Have we not taken to us horns--that is, acquired power, so as to conquer our neighbors ( 2 Kings 14:25 ). Horns are the Hebrew symbol of power, being the instrument of strength in many animals ( Psalms 75:10 ).
14. from the entering in of Hamath--the point of entrance for an invading army (as Assyria) into Israel from the north; specified here, as Hamath had been just before subjugated by Jeroboam II ( Amos 6:2 ). Do not glory in your recently acquired city, for it shall be the starting-point for the foe to afflict you. How sad the contrast to the feast of Solomon attended by a congregation from this same Hamath, the most northern boundary of Israel, to the Nile, the river of Egypt, the most southern boundary!
unto the river of the wilderness--that is, to Kedron, which empties itself into the north bay of the Dead Sea below Jericho ( 2 Chronicles 28:15 ), the southern boundary of the ten tribes ( 2 Kings 14:25 , "from the entering of Hamath unto the sea of the plain") [MAURER]. To the river Nile, which skirts the Arabian wilderness and separates Egypt from Canaan [GROTIUS]. If this verse includes Judah, as well as Israel (compare Amos 6:1 , "Zion" and "Samaria"), GROTIUS' view is correct; and it agrees with 1 Kings 8:65 .

The FHA is the Federal Housing Administration, which is a federal agency in the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD); if your loan is an FHA-insured loan, it means it is backed by them. The FHA does not loan money to borrowers. Rather, it provides lending organizations with safety by offering mortgage insurance in case the borrower does not pay his or her loan obligations. Applicable to all buyers, FHA loan programs are created to aid credit-worthy low-income and moderate-income families who do not have the qualifications for conventional loans. Unlike the VA appraiser panel, the lender working with Federal Housing Administration is allowed to choose the appraiser.
Down payments are often lower with an FHA loan despite using conventional market rates. FHA loan programs are extremely useful to those consumers with less accumulated starting capital.

With a one way ticket from California to France in her hand, she soon found herself in the south of France, working on an olive farm. Little did she know that in those very olive groves would she find her Alex. Tessa and Alex were married in Provence, France, adjacent to the very olive groves where they first met whilst working side by side during the harvest season just a few years ago. They, their family, loved ones and precious son Theo celebrated together last September, bathed in warm Provence light & French cheer. What a joy it was for us to be a part of such a spectacular love story.
Head across to 100 Layer Cake to read more about their humble, heartfelt celebration.
Just beautiful! Makes me even more desperate to go to Provence :)
Shockingly beautiful work, with equally beautiful story, oh and what a cute kid! :D

Come is a Boston band that sounds like death warmed over in a microwave; the Shams are three New York women who harmonize like the Bangles trapped on a subway train; the Chapel Hill band Superchunk comes off as a bunch of college slackers trying to play metal in the local rathskeller. What do they have in common? Nothing except that all record for Matador, a teeny Manhattan label that, for now, is the U.S. indie haven to watch. As the above list indicates, there's a simple reason for that. Rather than perpetuate a ''sound,'' as so many indie labels do (take, for example, Seattle's Sub Pop), co-owners Gerard Cosloy and Chris Lombardi seem more interested in anything novel and refreshing. As a result, you never know what sort of racket will emanate from a new Matador release which, in the land of indies, is always half the fun.
Granted, the label's earliest releases (dating back to 1990) were mostly crudely recorded scum-rock bands with more attitude than substance. No longer. Crisp production and stick-to-the-rib-cage songs ruled on two superb recent releases the Shams' 1991 Quilt (like a drowsy summer sing-along on a city fire escape) and 1992's grinding, hummable Slanted & Enchanted by the Stockton, Calif., guitar band Pavement.
Granted, too, Matador has a problem when it comes to follow-ups. Pavement's new four-song EP, Watery, Domestic, is basically a toss-off. On the Mouth, Superchunk's third and latest Matador album, has many admirable moments including a love song with the line ''For tension, you can use me'' but overall it lacks the style of its roaring 1991 predecessor, No Pocky for Kitty.
Still, any growing pains are forgiven in the face of new releases like Come's debut, Eleven: Eleven, a captivating blast of ennui and feedback that may be Matador's finest moment yet. Thalia Zedek, the band's singer and guitarist (and a former heroin addict), has a lethargic snarl that seems to be corroding as she's singing. And when that voice is matched with creepy lyrics like ''I close my eyes/I sink to the bottom'' or power-crunch erector sets like the beautiful ''Sad Eyes,'' Eleven: Eleven is enthralling, like watching someone howl into a rainstorm. With records like that, Matador hits the bull's-eye just enough to make the light of the American underground flicker again. Watery, Domestic: B- On the Mouth: B- Eleven: Eleven: A-

California's Highway 1, from Malibu to Big Sur, is beautiful. It's also dotted with overpriced, mediocre restaurants and a lot of tourists. So last spring, my husband, Ian, and I borrowed a 22-foot Airstream and headed north from San Francisco. The farther up the coast you travel, the grittier and wilder everything becomes. As we passed the Humboldt County sign, the scent of marijuana wafted through the vents, making us laugh out loud. (Maybe it was a contact high.) North of Humboldt up Highway 101, the redwoods started jutting up, making us feel small. One had a tunnel through it for cars; another, just a stump, contained a house. Then we made for Jedediah Smith Redwoods State Park, the least logged redwood park in the state. After camping for a night under the canopy ($35 per night; reserveamerica.com), we continued north into Oregon, where the beaches look utterly foreign, with three-story sea stacks jutting up from the sand. Just north, in the town of Bandon, we spilled into the Wheelhouse Restaurant and Crowsnest Lounge, wet from the rain, for some fresh, vinegary halibut (541-347-9331). From there it's a five-hour drive to the end of the road in Portland. Along the way, stop in at Cape Lookout State Park (from $19 per night; reserveamerica.com), at the northern end of the old-growth-covered Wilson River pass. Anyone who says camping isn't romantic has never camped here—40-foot waterfalls stream from cliffs about a mile down the beach from the oceanfront campground. With the Airstream's awning and a bottle of wine, we weren't exactly roughing it. But it was just a short walk to an empty beach where we felt like the last two people on the planet.

2013 Lexus ES earns five stars from NHTSA
The 2013 Lexus ES has earned a five-star crash rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The 2013 ES 350 and ES 300h hybrid earned the highest ratings in each of the government's crash evaluations, including overall driver safety, frontal crashes and overall side impacts, save one. The sedan only achieved a four-star rating in the NHTSA rollover protection test, but that fault wasn't enough to keep the vehicle from earning a five-star designation overall.
The announcement doesn't mention the recent Consumer Reports claim that the ES comes with a faulty emergency trunk release that can be easily broken in a panic situation.
As you may recall, the 2013 ES 350 carries an MSRP of CAD$39,500, plus an $1,995 freight fee and offers buyers a 268-horsepower 3.5-litre V6 good for 248 pound-feet of torque, as well. The ES 300h, meanwhile, stickers at US$38,850. (Canadian pricing not yet released for the hybrid model)

Just wondering if there are many people on this forum in the Astoria/ Seaside, OR area. Would love to meet up with someone more experienced and learn or must chat about brewing and beer.
I am down in Manzanita/Nehalem/Wheeler area. I've not come across any homebrewers local to me!
I'm mostly getting connected to some guys in seaside. They guy at hondos said plenty of people come into his store, but there's not much publication about any clubs around here. Are you coming up for pouring at the coast at the convention center?
Yeah I am hoping to come up with my wife and a couple of friends. Makes a nice change having a beer festival on the coast!
Hi guys. I met a guy today that I think is going to build me a brew stand. I expect to host some brew days in the future. We could do 15 gal batches and split them... Thoughts?

The battle lines are already being drawn as the Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (COGCC) prepares to hear public comments Dec. 5 on the state's proposal to require disclosure of chemicals used by oil and gas drillers for hydraulic fracturing.
Western Resource Advocates, a Boulder-based environmental organization, issued a statement urging the commission to close a "loophole" it said would allow "oil and gas companies to withhold information by claiming a broad and loosely-defined 'trade secret' exemption."
"We need to make sure that companies can't just say, 'Hey, that's a trade secret–end of discussion,'" Mike Chiropolos, WRA's lands program director, said in a written statement. "'Trade Secret' can't just be an answer on a form. Knowing what might get in our water is too important to the health and safety of Colorado residents."
"We need to get closer to full disclosure," added Jason Bane, WRA's communications manager. "We feel fuller disclosure will serve as a disincentive to using dangerous chemicals. Industry will think twice and see if there's a better alternative if they have to disclose the chemicals they're using."
But Tisha Schuller, president and CEO, of the Colorado Oil & Gas Association (COGA) said the concern raised by WRA has already been addressed.
"Under existing regulations, that (trade secret) information already must be made available to the commission and to healthcare providers," Schuller said.
Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper unveiled the proposed disclosure rules in August at COGA's annual meeting in Denver.
Schuller said her organization supports the "concept and spirit" of the proposed rules but said COGA is withholding judgment on the specifics until it finishes studying the language in the proposal.
Schuller said communities don't have to wait until the new rules go into effect on February 1 to get information about what chemicals are being used. Many companies are already disclosing their drilling fluids "on a well-by-well basis" on the website FracFocus.org, she said.
And COGA announced a voluntary statewide water-sampling program this fall that calls for water samples to be taken before and after drilling beginning after the first of the year.
"Ninety percent of all operators who drilled in Colorado during the past year have committed to participate," Schuller said. "Our goal is to get to 100 percent." She said the program is modeled after a 10-year-old COGCC water-sampling program in the San Juan Basin.
"In 10 years they've accumulated a lot of data," Schuller said. COGA will share the data collected through its program with the commission and she said "the commission estimates that in one year our program will double the amount of data they have."
"We believe the combination of the commission's (disclosure) proposal and our water sampling program will be very compelling for communities" eager to obtain information about whether hydraulic fracturing is affecting groundwater, Schuller said.

Coca-Cola's branding has been all over Fox's American Idol for 13 seasons, from the massive cups visible on the judges' table to the dizzying background videos when host Ryan Seacrest sits down to have a tête-à-tête with contestants.
But Coke has finally decided to disengage from the once all-powerful FOX TV show, Variety reports. The show has been losing ratings in recent years and announced this week that the results segments would be completely eliminated; performances and results will now all be in one episode, AmericanIdolnet.com reports.
Apparently, the audition portions are popular enough for the network to keep them around for two nights a week, so the next season will start off with two audition episodes followed by once-weekly showings after that.
All of it will now be without Coke, though the question remains how producers will handle the Coke-emblazoned cups that may have been in front of the judges last summer when they taped the auditions. (Digital product placement insertion, perhaps?)Continue reading...

Posted by Mark J. Miller on December 8, 2011 12:07 PM
In the months leading up to this fall's Rugby World Cup in New Zealand, there was much ado about the unauthorized piggyback practice of ambush marketing by non-sponsors.
New regulations and practices were put in place to be sure that any brand that hadn't paid a massive chunk to sponsor the matches found even the teensiest way to affiliate itself with the event. The preparation for such a possible catastrophe seemed to put ambush marketing on par with terrorism.
Other than a bunch of scantily clad gals in stilettos handing out flyers for a strip club after one particular match, the RWC went ambush-free.
Now a much bigger event is coming, next year's Summer Olympics in London (which organizers refuse to identify with its XXX Roman numerals, for some reason), and nobody wants any big-spending sponsors to be outdone by some fancy bit of ambush marketing.Continue reading...

In the months leading up to the Rugby World Cup in New Zealand that kicked off on Sept. 9 and finishes up this Sunday with a final match between the host country and France, the organizers did everything imaginable to be extra doubly sure that there wouldn't be one itty bitty ounce of ambush marketing that took place at the festivities. Event organizers went so far to protect sponsors of the event, it felt like other types of security might be falling by the wayside.
Other than a few brochures handed out in the "clean zone" around one arena by scantily clad gals from a strip bar in Wellington, so far, so good. No crazy ambushes like the 36 orange-clad women one Dutch brewery sent to a World Cup game in South Africa to get the brand's name into the minds of millions without spending the millions that Budweiser did to sponsor the event. Or even peaceful ones like the free hot-chocolate truck at the Vancouver Winter Olympics run by a rival credit-card company to event sponsor Visa.
At least Rugby World Cup sponsor Heineken must be happy because it just announced that it was going to throw more cash in and extend its sponsorship to the 2015 RWC in England.Continue reading...

Brands including Microsoft, Land Rover, BlackBerry, and Toshiba have paid big bucks to be the sponsors of the Rugby World Cup, which is currently underway in New Zealand. The country and organization made a very big deal this summer about how they are going to do everything possible to curtail any little inkling of ambush marketing in order to protect the corporations that were shelling out to be officially part of the fun.
Now the RWC is getting its first test and it's not from any corporate giant that has creatively found a way to sneak its logo into RWC matches. It's from a strip bar.
The Sydney Morning Herald reports that one such establishment in Wellington, NZ, sent out "scantily clad women in stilettos and 'All Blacks' uniforms emblazoned with silver ferns" to hand out two-for-one flyers to match attendees in the wake of the first match the town hosted during the event: South Africa v. Wales on Sept. 11.Continue reading...

The Rugby World Cup that is currently underway in New Zealand has set new precedents in its attempts to scare off and stop ambush marketing of any sort.
The next big event to step up and try to show how it's going to crush ambush marketers of all stripes will be the 2012 London Olympics (the unfortunately numbered XXX games, though you understandably won't find that anywhere on London's Olympic website).
"A proposed amendment to the Olympics Act 2006, due to come before Parliament by the end of this year, will reverse the customary burden of proof in criminal cases," Marketing Magazine reports. "Senior marketers could therefore be found guilty of an offence unless they can prove that ambush activity for their brand took place without their knowledge, or that they took reasonable steps to prevent it."
After all, in such a financially strapped world, big events such as these are attempting to protect the investment of the corporations that actually shell out the big bucks to be corporate sponsors rather than the creative, lower-cost marketers who are trying to sneak in publicity, whether it's through skywriting, streakers, or women in matching orange outfits.
"The extraordinary derogation from the normal position could also catch out directors of official sponsors whose staff or agencies overstep the strict letter of their sponsor rights," said Nick Johnson, partner at law firm Osborne Clarke, Marketing Magazine reports.
Let's hope the law is as tough on actual ambushers as it is on sneaky advertisers.

If you are headed to New Zealand in the next two months — whether to go to the seventh Rugby World Cup that runs from Sept. 9 to Oct. 22 or not — you might want to leave any branded clothing at home for fear that you may be accused of ambush marketing.
The event's Kiwi organizers are making good on their threat to throw the book (and a few other things) at anyone who even comes close to thinking about performing the act of ambush marketing or using the World Cup's logo without actually paying the fees to be a sponsor of the event.Continue reading...

We are nearing completion on our gut rehab in Chicago, and need to make a decision about what process to use to refinish the interior of our 100-year old clawfoot bathtub. The widely used industry standard seems to be "synthetic porcelain", which as best as I can tell is paint, essentially. My research has shown that there is no way to actually "restore" porcelain, but there is one refinisher here in Chicago that uses a process called "thermo-glaze", which he purports to be as close to original porcelain as possible. If that is the case, then I think it is the way to go. Does anyone have any knowledge and or experience with this technique and how it compares to the standard synthetic porcelain? Here is the website of the thermo-glaze company and the description of the process:
http://www.aarcobaths.com/services We have taken such care with this tub, and we don't want to "cheap out" now! We had the feet sandblasted and chrome-plated. You can see the beautiful results, and other pictures of the renovation, here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/20595563@N06/6858500531/ Any and all advice/input will be greatly appreciated! |

My son brings his 2 male dogs over , and one of them has started lifting his leg in my house. My son & Girlfriend are totally embarrassed and says he doesn't do that anywhere else. He's never even done it in their house . He's 4 & neutered, my dog is a female , 8 and spayed.They get along good. Why does he do this ? He did it right in front of us the first time - we yelled and he stopped. The last time he was here , after he left I found 2 wet spots on the kitchen throw rug. I can't figure it out . Why only my house ? **Edited to add - my house is clean except for dog hair |

That makes so much sense. When our dogs get together , he's the biggest one and he seems to take over the house as soon as he walks in . My son's other dog is so passive ,he just stays in the backround. My dog is small & shy , but she'll snap and lunge at him when he steals her toys .(It's actually funny to watch ) Maybe that's his way of letting her know that she should leave him alone. I'm thinking of all the little scuffles they've gotten into - everything is falling in place now.I can see why .I'm so glad I asked -- thank you so much for helping me figure it out :) |
