More On Legal & Compliance
from The Advisor's Professional Library- Code of Ethics Rule The Code of Ethics Rule, found in Rule 204A-1, uses severe consequences for violation to help ensure investment advisors will do the right thing.
- Agency and Principal Transactions In passing Section 206(3) of the Investment Advisers Act, Congress recognized that principal and agency transactions can be harmful to clients. Such transactions create the opportunity for RIAs to engage in self-dealing.
The North American Securities Administrators Association is warning investors to consider the risks associated with virtual currencies, particularly that the value of such currencies is volatile.
In an investor alert, "What's in Your e-Wallet?," NASAA explains that virtual currency is an electronic medium of exchange that can be bought or sold through virtual currency exchanges and used to purchase goods or services where accepted.
These currencies are gaining in both popularity and controversy and are stored in an electronic wallet, also known as an e-wallet, which is a digital system that allows payments online via a computer or mobile device. So-called cryptocurrencies are designed to make transactions difficult to trace.
"Unlike traditional currency, these alternatives typically are not backed by tangible assets, are not issued by a governmental authority and are subject to little or no regulation," said Andrea Seidt, NASAA president and Ohio Securities Commissioner, in a statement.
"The value of virtual currencies is highly volatile and the concept behind the currency is difficult to understand even for sophisticated financial experts," Seidt said. "Investors should be aware that investments that incorporate virtual currency present very real risks."
The alert explains that a growing numbers of merchants, businesses and other organizations currently accept bitcoin, one example of cryptocurrency, in lieu of traditional currency. However, recently, one of the largest bitcoin exchanges, Mt. Gox, shut down after claiming to be the victim of hackers and losing more than $350 million of virtual currency.
"Despite the controversy, virtual currency may find its way into your e-wallet," NASAA warns.
Before investing in any offering involving virtual currency, investors should consider that:
Virtual currency is subject to minimal regulation and susceptible to cyberattacks. There may be no recourse should the virtual currency disappear.
Virtual currency accounts are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. (FDIC), which insures bank deposits up to $250,000.
Investments tied to virtual currency may be unsuitable for most investors due to their volatility.
Investors in virtual currency will be highly reliant upon unregulated companies that may lack appropriate internal controls and may be more susceptible to fraud and theft than regulated financial institutions.
Investors will have to rely upon the strength of their own computer security systems, as well as security systems provided by third parties, to protect their e-wallets from theft.

Flickr Hive Mind is a search engine as well as an experiment in the power of Folksonomies. All thumbnail images come directly from Flickr, none are stored on Flickr Hive Mind. These photos are bound by the copyright and license of their owners, the thumbnail links take to you to the photos (as well as their copyright and license details) within Flickr. Because some other search engines (Google, etc.) index parts of Flickr Hive Mind, you may have been led here from one of them. Welcome to Flickr Hive Mind, almost certainly the best search engine for photography on the web. If you are a Flickr user and use Flickr Stats you may have seen people being led to your photos via Flickr Hive Mind (as a Referrer). Flickr requires that I inform you that Flickr Hive Mind uses the Flickr API, but is neither endorsed nor certified by them. There are literally hundreds of other web tools built around the Flickr API, see Flickr Bits for a bunch of examples. If you are unhappy with your photos' presence on this site, you can (a) make your photos private for yourself, friends, and family. These settings will be instantly honored by Flickr Hive Mind and all other API-driven applications. (b) Hide your photos globally from text and tag searches on 3rd party sites that use the Flickr API, via your preference settings on Flickr. See the privacy tab at: http://flickr.com/account/. To also remove yourself from searches for specific user names, you will need to set your Flickr profile to be hidden from searches. Flickr has finally created a single page with all these settings, this is much easier to do now and is the preferred method - it will shut down all API driven sites. (c) Finally, you can Banish Yourself From Flickr Hive Mind. To banish yourself from Flickr Hive Mind, you must first authenticate to Flickr, which lets Flickr Hive Mind identify who you are. Once logged in, come back to this area and there will be a link to banish you. If there are any problems email me at nosflickrhivemind ... at ... fiveprime ... dot ... org.

Every time you get into your car, you want to be able to ensure a safe trip for you and your passengers. When you've got new tires, you can rest assured that you'll be safer on the road through rain or shine. Of course, there are more benefits to having high-quality tires than just safety. With reliable tires, you'll also save money and have an overall better performing vehicle. You can find all the tires you need when you shop at Sears.
Safety is one of the biggest concerns every time you get behind the wheel. Brakes aren't the only automotive part that keeps you safe on the road. Whether you're driving yourself or you're with friends and family, it's important to have the safest possible vehicle. By replacing old tires before they hit 100,000 miles, you'll be able to increase your ability to safely drive short and long distances. The benefits of traction can improve accelerating and braking in any weather condition, whether it's icy, wet or dry.
Your car performs better when you have reliable, high quality tires. From the tire treads to the size of your wheels, the style and design of your tires can improve braking, gas mileage and performance more than an older set of tires. Be sure to have your tires rotated regularly and keep the pressure at optimum performance. Once they've run their course, make sure to install new tires to keep your car running like a charm.
Regardless of your vehicle, it's important to make sure that you have dependable tires for all seasons. Depending on where you live, you may want to invest in seasonal tires for your car, truck or RV. If you live in an area where you deal with icy conditions, you'll want to consider winter tires for slick roads, black ice and bitter cold. Of course, you can't keep winter tires on all year, so you'll need a set of all-purpose or summer tires for when the temperature heats up. All you need are the right tire and wheel accessories to change your tires as quickly as possible.
Whether you need something that fits your driving habits or drives smoothly during different seasons, Sears has you covered with a wide variety of tires. Find the best selection of car, truck, or even RV tires that work best for you. Get new tires today to keep your vehicle running at peak performance.

Something I love about my job is when my students tell me something that "blows my mind" (in teenspeak). Being a teacher of teens means that I am frequently having to adjust what I thought I knew about a whole range of issues. The most recent adjustment has been to what I thought I knew about teens' relationship with the Internet.
Personalized learning will mean that more often than not your child will be interacting with his/her personal computer while completing courses online. It makes so much sense to try to sell this doublespeak version of "personalized" to parents. It's so much cheaper to buy a new computer than to pay a teacher's salary year after year.
Understanding Ontario's financial woes is critical to understanding the need for real change. The province has been in deficit since 2008-09, accumulating more than $61 billion in debt. In 2013-14, the deficit was $11.3 billion. The province's debt now stands at almost $270 billion; it was just $130 billion at the start of the 2000s.
The teachers have been lying to us. For years. They've been covering it up. Papering over underfunding and mismanaged fiscal priorities with brightly coloured posters and sparkly stickers. Concealing an impoverished system by buying the damn supplies themselves. Without receiving so much as a tax break on those purchases.
The early afternoon sun brightens the kitchen as it shines down through the skylight; I can hear my two youngest children, managing to not bicker and argue their way through Lego Star Wars on the TV, and I'm sitting across the kitchen table from my teacher husband, typing this as he plots out his Socials 8 course for the year. This is the first Sunday in months that feels normal for us.

via AdWeek,
The NHL and the New York Post have hired the New York office of Young & Rubicam to handle creative assignments on their respective brands, the agency said today. For the NHL, the WPP shop, with its Toronto office, is producing a campaign that will include TV spots, print, digital marketing and cinema ads.
The bulk of the work will break around the start of the league's season on Oct. 3.
Does this mean Larry Brooks will be the new NHL spokesperson?

Ok so I know this is a first world problem, but I am almost in tears! I went to repurchase online and had no idea it had been discontinued. My most fave favourite lip gloss EVER. I will never purchase ANYTHING from NARS ever again. So disappointed.

Man, this color is gorgeous. It's very thick, but it doesn't last long. But the color is gorgeous. For the price, I wouldn't purchase it again as I ran through this too quickly. I wish I could find a good dupe. I tried the ELF one and it's not even close. This product is amazing. It just either needs to include more, be longer lasting, or cost less. I think I would prefer it not in a jar as well.

I've had a pot of this for a year and I love, love, love the color and the moisturizing consistency - yes, it is very sticky but I like that it stays moist. However, the smell is SO HORRIBLE that I can hardly ever wear it. Forget having a makeout session in this stuff. It's an old, musty, sour smell like lipstick that's gone rancid. Blech!

This product has been out for awhile but I just got on the bandwagon. Had to have it after javklyn hill from YouTube mentioned it in her favs from 2013. Plus she mentioned Kim k wears it. To the color, I really love it. I use a makeup forever lip brush to apply. The color is sheet but buildable. It looks great with my nc35 skin. It like a MLBB type with a hint of perfect pink nude. It's creamy yet my hair doesn't get caught in it. Great product. Will purchase again.

New HG. If you are a lover of the youtube beauty/makeup community you know of Jacqueline Hill (or maybe not), she is a drop dead gorgeous MUA who talks this lip lacquer up. Sooo, since she loves it so much I (obviously) had to run to Sephora to pick it up. I would personally not describe this as a typical nude, only bc nude to me is Creme'de Nude from MAC, more along those lines but this IS a neutral baby pink, definitely on the nuder side of the spectrum. (Did that make ANY sense :p). Its STUNNING. I will wear this on its own, or over-top of a lipstick, but this has enough opaque coverage to wear alone, for sure. I am an NC25-30 with neutral golden undertones, dark brown hair, and eyes and this flatters me beautifully if I do say so myself. I am a nude lip kinda gal, everyday, all day :) so this fits the bill. Its more work, and school appropriate bc it is not stark nude. This lippie gives off that "I really don't have anything on my lips but some clear gloss, or balm" kinda natural look, yet looks as if you cared enough to try to add a lil somethin'. The shine is very minimum, so I would not classify this as a gloss, but it is in no way 'matte'. I do like the pot, Im not one who is really bothered by the idea of having to stick my finger in to apply - I actually like that! Gorg stuff, good job NARS you did well :) This also reminds me of that very loved Kardashian lip - nude, pinky, and oh so sexy :)

On my NC45 skintone this is the perfect nude for me. And an added bonus this stuff stays on for the long haul. Sometimes I may take a soft pink lip liner from NYX and fill in my lips before applying CG and it gives it another dimension. With no yucky fragrance added I definitely see myself repurchasing this lippie once I use up my current one. Love it.

Age: 19-24 Skin: Very Oily, Medium, Warm Hair: Black, Wavy, Medium Eyes: Black
This is a hard one to review. On one hand, it's definitely more pigmented and fuller in coverage than your standard lip gloss. But it's still not as opaque as your average lipstick. I'd liken the coverage to that of a MAC lustre lipstick. I had to goop and gop this on my lips to achieve medium-full coverage, though I do have very pigmented natural lips.
The color has potential to be either the most beautiful nude I've ever seen, or yet another bland nude that pulls greyish. Problem is, I can't really tell because the sheerness kicks in with my pigmented lips. If you have lighter lips, it obviously won't affect pigmentation. The shade looks like MAC Jubilee in the pot. In bright lighting, it appears as if this was a neutral pink nude on me in store lighting (I'm currently around NC25). But when I went outside in dim daylight (well, we don't really have sunlight here in Seattle), it appeared darker and almost coral.
I still can't decide if this is more of a lip gloss or a lipstick. I honestly would like it to be more opaque, but then again the gloss aspect of it does make it look more natural and melts in with the complexion.
Is it worth $25? No. Come back when you have fuller coverage and more pigmentation and then we'll talk, Nars.

This is another one of my very few nude coloured lip products. I like the colour and the payoff of this product, but it has an odd scent. I'm weird and sort of enjoy the scent, but I know it is probably terrible to most people. I don't like that it's in a little tub, because I have snoopy family members, and they just stick their fingers in there, and it skeeves me out. Many of you probably do not have that problem. (Don't you just hate it when people touch your makeup with out even asking?!) And lastly, this product is a bit sticky. But still. it is a nice nude shade.

The perfect pinky nude lip! I've been searching for a subtle nude lipgloss and I found it with chelsea girls. The packaging could be better, but the product is so pigmented and thick I don't think a tube with an applicator would work. I've found applying with your finger is the best. This is worth the money! I see it easily outlasting any mac lipgloss.

WylieCoyote January 20, 2013 11:40 AM Motojunky...I follow MotoGP, not a particular rider. Lets look at why the best team on the grid is willing to back this bloke. In the slightly detuned test car in his first outing in a V8 he was lapping faster than Craig Lowdnes, the three times champion. In his second outing, and first time in a fully tuned tier 1 car, he was lapping within 2 seconds of the best ever times. Those faster times done during qualifying on new tyres and low fuel by the best in the business. Wayne Gardner ended up in the best team in V8 Supercars and did very well at Bathurst and also won the first ever V8 Supercar race! Barry Sheen ended up being a Supertruck racing champion for many years. The ability to concentrate for extended periods of time and feel the machine under you are the two most important aspects and as the 888 team owner said, Casey has got those skills in bucketloads. My brother is friends with the bloke who purchased the sister car to Casey's. He says the field will not cut him any slack a Reply Report abuse 3 agree 0 disagree

I for one think that it is great information. I am in the process of selling and buying a new house. Others are probably kicking themselves for not thinking of doing it themselves.

Send Bill a message explaining your needs and you will receive a response by email. Have you already emailed Bill or another tutor? If so, you have an account! Sign in now
If you select this option, WyzAnt will ask interested tutors to contact you by email if they are able to help. A maximum of five different tutors will email you and none of your personal information, including your email address, will be released.
For over 30 years, I've had consistent success providing individualized coaching and tutoring that is specific to each individual's needs.
Academic: I provide support to college students and self-improvement to adults in all areas of the English language - written and spoken, in history - American and European, and in social studies.
ESL: I help people whose 1st language is not English read, write, speak, and understand our language better and to reduce their accents.
I have tutored individuals from India, Spain, Italy, Russia, China, the Mideast, Israel, and Canada
Business: I provide business professionals with the help they need to prepare public speeches and coach them in written and oral presentation skills.
I am a writer, researcher and editor and have done extensive writing on the subjects of language and history. I've traveled extensively both in this country and abroad and am familiar with a variety of cultures.
I began my teaching career as a secondary teacher at Thurston High School in South Redford, Michigan, where I taught all things language-related, spoken or written. I also conducted the schools drama, debate, and forensics programs. I left Thurston, in good standing, after 14 years.
I continued to do classroom teaching at Henry Ford, Schoolcraft, and Oakland Community colleges while working as a professional writer, trainer, and actor.
Very patient and methodical at teaching English. Has a lot of knowledge about other subjects that facilitates the conversation and makes training more spontaneous.
A good tutor is the key element in improving your English efficiently. Bill is better than the best.
He truly cares about you and genuinely wants to help you. He tailors and adapts his teaching methods to meet your particular needs and ensures every success of your learning from various learning strategies.
He frequently recorded my talks and analyzed them at home, then worked together with me to make an learning plan targeting on my weakness, which turned out to be a very effective way in my learning process. In addition, he is very understanding and supportive. All his lessons are very organized. I truly appreciate that he put a lot of effort into developing the tutoring materials for me. I strongly recommend his tutoring to everyone who is interested in improving his English pronunciation and communication skills.
Bill has been one of the most wonderful tutors I have ever met in recent years. I am essentially a scientist with little or no flair for the arts. I was not doing well in my English classes and I need to pass this course to progress. I decided to find a private tutor. Going through the profiles of all English tutors on your web, I was impressed by Bill's credentials and contacted him right away. I was lucky enough to have chosen him. He taught me the nitty-gritty of English. He assessed me correctly and provided all the ingredients I need to master English. Bill tutored me such that I am now scoring A's in English classes! I thank you Bill for your wealth of experience and efficiency. I will recommend Bill anytime for whosoever wants to master English. Thanks.
Bill is very organized and an obvious expert in English and well as working with students. Looking forward to regular lessons.
Approved subjects are in bold.
In most cases, tutors gain approval in a subject by passing a proficiency exam. For some subject areas, like music and art, tutors submit written requests to demonstrate their proficiency to potential students. If a tutor is interested but not yet approved in a subject, the subject will appear in non-bold font. Tutors need to be approved in a subject prior to beginning lessons.
The real history of America is so much more than Plymouth Rock, Valley Forge, and the Alamo. The people and events that made us who we are are multifaceted and deeply interesting.
Knowledge and understanding of our country's history is vital for adults who want to have a well-rounded understanding of how we have become who we are. This is true whether the need is business-related, in advanced academics, or for personal satisfaction. Understanding the past helps us understand the present.
During my 40 years of teaching and writing about American history, I've also been to many of the places where history actually happened. Learning about our history can be enjoyable and interesting. I'd like to help you experience it that way.
I have been an English teacher, tutor, and trainer for over 30 years. My many years as a professional writer also give me a solid understanding of how English is used in a variety of situations.
I now work primarily with adults who want to improve their use of English in business, social situations, and advanced academics.
The specific approach taken in your tutoring will depend on whether you want to improve your written English, spoken English, or both.
I can provide the kind of help you need based on your current language abilities, your individual needs, and your language goals.
I work primarily with adults for whom English isn't their first language. My recent clients have included people whose native language is Indian English, Hindi, Spanish, Korean, Chinese, Israeli, Russian, Italian, Portuguese, and Arabic.
How we approach your tutoring will depend on whether you wants to improve your written or spoken English or both. The methods we will use have been tested and refined so we can address your individual need and reach your personal goal.
My 30 years as a professional writer and 40 years as an educator, trainer, and coach make it possible for me to help adults who need to improve their writing skills for business, social, or academic purposes. I have, over the years, been a high school and college-level teacher and coach in public speaking, linguistics, and acting.
An understanding of the history of Europe is necessary for having a better understanding of current events in the world today as well as having a well-rounded and complete education. I work with adults who wish to know history either for personal, professional, or academic reasons.
I have taught and written about history for over 30 years. I believe learning history should be interesting and enjoyable, and I strive to make it both.
To support my academic background, I have visited and studied many of the important places where history has been made.
I focus on tutoring adults who need to improve their grammar, written or spoken, for either business, social, or academic purposes.
Grammar is often more an art than a science. Understanding and using grammar well depends on both learning the "rules" of grammar and knowing when and why to apply a particular rule.
Grammar changes with the times and with when someone is writing and whom he or she is writing for. It's often more important, to use grammar well, to understand what form of grammar is appropriate than it is to just memorize a rule.
Literature isn't just words. It's a the sum total of what people have thought and felt about themselves and their times. It's a way for us to look into how people live and how they felt about the events in the world and in their own lives.
I work primarily with adults in either business, social, or academic situations who need to improve their knowledge of literature.
Understanding and enjoying literature depends on more than just reading words. It also depends on help in understanding the life and times of the writer and characters. How did they fit into their world, and what do they have to say to ours?
I have, over the years, been a high school and college-level teacher and coach in public speaking, linguistics, and acting. I have also coached business people in preparing and delivering live and televised speeches.
As a professional speaker and actor, I have prepared and delivered numerous speeches on a wide variety of subjects for myself as well as writing speeches for business people including corporate executives.
I work primarily with adults who need to improve their oral presentation abilities in business, social, and academic situations.
Improved reading comprehension is based on three sets of strategies, which I have applied successfully with both individuals whose first language in English and those for whom English is a second or third language.
I work primarily with adults who need to improve their reading comprehension for professional, personal, social, or academic reasons.
Most importantly, though, is that each of these strategies be adjusted and personalized to fit the needs and abilities of each individual.
I have done extensive reading in the great religions of the world from theological, social, historical, and economic points of view.
I understand the basic tenets of each and have come to recognize a great many more fundamental similarities than differences.
I work primarily with adults who want to develop a better understanding of their own or other religions. I do this with respect for and appreciation of all religions without any preference for one belief-system over another.
In today's world, a knowledge and understanding of history is vital for understanding the causes and possible consequences of events. It's also basic to a well-rounded and complete education.
I work with adults who have a need to know world history either for personal, professional, or academic reasons. My goal is to educate but to do so in a way that the subject is both pertinent and interesting.
In over 30 years of teaching and writing about history, I have not just read books. I've actually visited many of the most important places where history has been made. I'd like to share what I've discovered.
My 30 years as a professional writer and 40 years as an educator, trainer, and coach make it possible for me to help adults who need to improve their writing skills for business, social, or academic purposes.
Writing, like any other skill, calls for basic knowledge and consistent practice, but just as importantly, it calls for understanding and individualized coaching support. My combined experiences have given me the methods and skills to do that.
More than English — Very patient and methodical at teaching English. Has a lot of knowledge about other subjects that facilitates the conversation and makes training more spontaneous. ...

Hi Karen, just now reading your email message. Yes you are right, we do have some of the same lines. My Larabee surname stops with Susannah Larabee. She married my gg grandfather Harvey BLAKELEY, abt. 1829 in Cranberry, Butler, PA. Susannah died about 1851 in Mason City, Mason, IL. Susannah passed away and he married secondly Susanna Ballinger 10 Jul 1856 in Athens Co., OH. Do you have the following? There is no record of the marriage of BETHIA SNOW to ASAPH LARABEE other than the will of her father, SETH SNOW Sr. I include a copy of that Will below for your information. It names as one of SETH's daughters "BETHIA the wife of ASAPH LARABEE." Actually, this was BETHIA's second marriage, the first one being to CALEB RICHMOND in 1788 who died only 2 years later. (I quote the references below.) BETHIA and ASAPH were probably married in Pownal, VT because that is where ASAPH was living at the time. I have estimated the date of this marriage as about 1792/3 based on fact ASAPH LARABEE Jr. was born 1794 according to application he made for War of 1812 compensation (in 1856). This ASAPH Jr is the closest to being a "proven" child of ASAPH and BETHIA - no birth record, but the uniqueness of the name and coincidence of his residence and other data are compelling. The only other child for whom we have a published record is BETSEY LARABEE, named as granddaughter in SETH SNOW's will. Keep in touch. Glenda Notify Administrator about this message?

Hi! I'm new
Hello all!
I'm Jackie, and I just moved to Lake Buena Vista a few weeks ago. I have been lurking the dis for a few years now, but I never really had the guts to post anything :confused: I was literally born with an AP in my little tiny hands ;) and my family makes frequent trips to Disney (mostly for the food!) Whenever my boyfriend and I have a day off from work together, we enjoy visiting the parks. So I thought I should start contributing my opinions/dining reviews/local news etc. After all, the mouse is less than a mile away from my new home :cool1: |

The Darby Translation (DBY) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 On that day they read in the book of Moses in the audience of the people; and there was found written in it that the Ammonite and the Moabite should not come into the congregation of God for ever; | 1 On that day the Book of Moses was read aloud in the hearing of the people and there it was found written that no Ammonite or Moabite should ever be admitted into the assembly of God, |
2 because they had not met the children of Israel with bread and with water, and had hired Balaam against them, to curse them; but our God turned the curse into blessing. | 2 because they had not met the Israelites with food and water but had hired Balaam to call a curse down on them. (Our God, however, turned the curse into a blessing.) |
3 And it came to pass, when they heard the law, that they separated from Israel all the mixed multitude. | 3 When the people heard this law, they excluded from Israel all who were of foreign descent. |
4 And before this, Eliashib the priest, who had the oversight of the chambers of the house of our God, a kinsman of Tobijah, | 4 Before this, Eliashib the priest had been put in charge of the storerooms of the house of our God. He was closely associated with Tobiah, |
5 had prepared for him a great chamber, where formerly they laid the oblations, the frankincense, and the vessels, and the tithes of the corn, the new wine and the oil, which was commanded for the Levites and the singers and the doorkeepers, and the heave-offerings of the priests. | 5 and he had provided him with a large room formerly used to store the grain offerings and incense and temple articles, and also the tithes of grain, new wine and oil prescribed for the Levites, singers and gatekeepers, as well as the contributions for the priests. |
6 And during all that [time] I was not at Jerusalem; for in the two-and-thirtieth year of Artaxerxes king of Babylon I came to the king; and after some time I obtained leave of the king. | 6 But while all this was going on, I was not in Jerusalem, for in the thirty-second year of Artaxerxes king of Babylon I had returned to the king. Some time later I asked his permission |
7 And I came to Jerusalem, and observed the evil that Eliashib had done for Tobijah, in preparing him a chamber in the courts of the house of God. | 7 and came back to Jerusalem. Here I learned about the evil thing Eliashib had done in providing Tobiah a room in the courts of the house of God. |
8 And it grieved me much, and I cast forth all the household stuff of Tobijah out of the chamber. | 8 I was greatly displeased and threw all Tobiah's household goods out of the room. |
9 And I commanded, and they purified the chambers; and thither brought I again the vessels of the house of God, the oblation and the frankincense. | 9 I gave orders to purify the rooms, and then I put back into them the equipment of the house of God, with the grain offerings and the incense. |
10 And I perceived that the portions of the Levites had not been given, and that the Levites and the singers that did the work had fled every one to his field. | 10 I also learned that the portions assigned to the Levites had not been given to them, and that all the Levites and singers responsible for the service had gone back to their own fields. |
11 Then I contended with the rulers, and said, Why is the house of God forsaken? And I gathered them together and set them in their place. | 11 So I rebuked the officials and asked them, "Why is the house of God neglected?" Then I called them together and stationed them at their posts. |
12 And all Judah brought the tithe of the corn and the new wine and the oil into the storehouses. | 12 All Judah brought the tithes of grain, new wine and oil into the storerooms. |
13 And I made storekeepers over the storehouses: Shelemiah the priest, and Zadok the scribe, and of the Levites, Pedaiah; and subordinate to them, Hanan the son of Zaccur, the son of Mattaniah; for they were esteemed faithful, and their office was to distribute to their brethren. | 13 I put Shelemiah the priest, Zadok the scribe, and a Levite named Pedaiah in charge of the storerooms and made Hanan son of Zaccur, the son of Mattaniah, their assistant, because these men were considered trustworthy. They were made responsible for distributing the supplies to their brothers. |
14 Remember me, O my God, concerning this, and wipe not out my good deeds which I have done for the house of my God, and for the charges thereof! | 14 Remember me for this, O my God, and do not blot out what I have so faithfully done for the house of my God and its services. |
15 In those days I saw in Judah some treading winepresses on the sabbath, and bringing in sheaves, and lading them on asses; as also wine, grapes and figs, and all manner of burdens; and they brought them into Jerusalem on the sabbath day; and I protested in the day on which they sold the victuals. | 15 In those days I saw men in Judah treading winepresses on the Sabbath and bringing in grain and loading it on donkeys, together with wine, grapes, figs and all other kinds of loads. And they were bringing all this into Jerusalem on the Sabbath. Therefore I warned them against selling food on that day. |
16 Men of Tyre also dwelt therein, who brought fish and all manner of ware, and sold it on the sabbath to the children of Judah, and in Jerusalem. | 16 Men from Tyre who lived in Jerusalem were bringing in fish and all kinds of merchandise and selling them in Jerusalem on the Sabbath to the people of Judah. |
17 And I contended with the nobles of Judah, and said to them, What evil thing is this which ye do, profaning the sabbath day? | 17 I rebuked the nobles of Judah and said to them, "What is this wicked thing you are doing--desecrating the Sabbath day? |
18 Did not your fathers thus, and did not our God bring all this evil upon us and upon this city? And ye will bring more wrath against Israel by profaning the sabbath. | 18 Didn't your forefathers do the same things, so that our God brought all this calamity upon us and upon this city? Now you are stirring up more wrath against Israel by desecrating the Sabbath." |
19 And it came to pass, that when it began to be dark in the gates of Jerusalem before the sabbath, I commanded that the gates should be shut; and I commanded that they should not be opened till after the sabbath. And I set [some] of my servants at the gates, so that no burden should be brought in on the sabbath day. | 19 When evening shadows fell on the gates of Jerusalem before the Sabbath, I ordered the doors to be shut and not opened until the Sabbath was over. I stationed some of my own men at the gates so that no load could be brought in on the Sabbath day. |
20 And the dealers and sellers of all kind of ware passed the night without Jerusalem once or twice. | 20 Once or twice the merchants and sellers of all kinds of goods spent the night outside Jerusalem. |
21 And I testified against them, and said to them, Why do ye pass the night before the wall? if ye do so again, I will lay hands on you. From that time forth they came not on the sabbath. | 21 But I warned them and said, "Why do you spend the night by the wall? If you do this again, I will lay hands on you." From that time on they no longer came on the Sabbath. |
22 And I commanded the Levites that they should purify themselves, and that they should come and keep the gates, to hallow the sabbath day. Remember this also for me, my God, and spare me according to thy great loving-kindness! | 22 Then I commanded the Levites to purify themselves and go and guard the gates in order to keep the Sabbath day holy. Remember me for this also, O my God, and show mercy to me according to your great love. |
23 In those days also I saw Jews that had married wives of Ashdod, of Ammon, [and] of Moab. | 23 Moreover, in those days I saw men of Judah who had married women from Ashdod, Ammon and Moab. |
24 And their children spoke half in the language of Ashdod, and could not speak in the Jews' language, but according to the language of each people. | 24 Half of their children spoke the language of Ashdod or the language of one of the other peoples, and did not know how to speak the language of Judah. |
25 And I contended with them, and cursed them, and smote certain of them and plucked off their hair, and adjured them by God [saying], Ye shall not give your daughters to their sons, nor take their daughters for your sons or for yourselves. | 25 I rebuked them and called curses down on them. I beat some of the men and pulled out their hair. I made them take an oath in God's name and said: "You are not to give your daughters in marriage to their sons, nor are you to take their daughters in marriage for your sons or for yourselves. |
26 Did not Solomon king of Israel sin by these things? Yet among the many nations was there no king like him, who was beloved of his God, and God made him king over all Israel; but even him did foreign wives cause to sin. | 26 Was it not because of marriages like these that Solomon king of Israel sinned? Among the many nations there was no king like him. He was loved by his God, and God made him king over all Israel, but even he was led into sin by foreign women. |
27 And should we hearken to you to do all this great evil, to act unfaithfully to our God by marrying foreign wives? | 27 Must we hear now that you too are doing all this terrible wickedness and are being unfaithful to our God by marrying foreign women?" |
28 And [one] of the sons of Joiada, the son of Eliashib the high priest, was son-in-law to Sanballat the Horonite; and I chased him from me. | 28 One of the sons of Joiada son of Eliashib the high priest was son-in-law to Sanballat the Horonite. And I drove him away from me. |
29 Remember them, my God, for they are polluters of the priesthood, and of the covenant of the priesthood and of the Levites! | 29 Remember them, O my God, because they defiled the priestly office and the covenant of the priesthood and of the Levites. |
30 And I purified them from all foreigners, and appointed the charges of the priests and the Levites, every one in his service; | 30 So I purified the priests and the Levites of everything foreign, and assigned them duties, each to his own task. |
31 and for the wood-offering, at times appointed, and for the first-fruits. Remember me, O my God, for good! | 31 I also made provision for contributions of wood at designated times, and for the firstfruits. Remember me with favor, O my God. |

Status of WiiU games, what's coming, what's planned.. etc. it's mostly discussion until about the 18 minute mark, where you get to start seeing games. But there is a lot of news here: * Many Gamecube, SNES and WII titles will be upgraded to HD.. with one of the first being "Legend of Zelda: Wind Walker" (they show some of the stills) available in the fall * Titles that are ports from older systems will be upgraded with more Wii-U ready controls and better graphics, so if you already purchased them on the Wii, they will be discounted on the WiiU for upgraded versions ($1.00 and $1.50) * they show off several new titles We'll see how it all plays, but definitely a nice run through by the BigN. The Big titles they are promo'ing now are:

Basically, they're working on the games that you assumed they were making (a new 3D Mario, a new Zelda, a new Mario Kart, a new Smash Bros.), Virtual Console is coming to Wii U (with the features added to the 3DS VC being incorporated, like save states), and Wind Waker is getting an HD re-release. There's no mention of other GameCube games being ported to the Wii U. If you have a Virtual Console game on the Wii, you can get it for Wii U for only an additional $1 (for NES) or $1.50 (for SNES). They're adding GBA games to the VC. This brings up a couple questions, like what happens to the non-NES/SNES VC games that were on the Wii. Are those not being brought to the Wii U? Will they release more NES/SNES games for the Wii U VC than are on the Wii one? There's also zero info on the Mario/Zelda/Smash games except "you'll see more at E3." For the most part, you could have guessed exactly what this Nintendo Direct was going to be.

Some 'Special' Production Value & Excellent Performances Battle the Clichés In SPECIAL FORCES
Feb 26, 2013
Good military thrillers are hard-to-find, and that's probably because the field of cinema has long cultivated lesser soldier pictures masquerading as something bigger or grander than what they truly are. For example, a reviewer for the Hollywood Reporter draws a light comparison to the Rambo films ("a body count that rivals any of the Rambo films"), and, to be honest, I think that does a disservice to SPECIAL FORCES as well as it does Rambo. Rambo is clearly a fictional creation; sure, he's entertaining and a crowd-pleaser, but the men who make up true-life Special Forces teams have very little in common with and how Rambo goes about his job. Rambo is bigger-than-life. He's over-the-top. Real soldiers lie low much of the time, and they only rush into combat when either ordered or find it absolutely necessary.
It's a fine-line distinction, but it's one that should be made when discussing competent military thrillers like SPECIAL FORCES.
(NOTE: The following review may contain minor spoilers necessary solely for the discussion of plot and character. If you're the kind of reader who prefers a review entirely spoiler-free, then I'd encourage you to skip down to the last two paragraphs for my final assessment. If, however, you're accepting of a few modest hints at 'things to come,' then read on …)
Elsa Casanova (played by the lovely Diane Kruger) is a war correspondent caught behind enemy lines in Afghanistan when she's taken hostage over some very unflattering pieces involving a local Taliban chieftain. Her captors take her deep into their Pakistan-stronghold, and the French call in a squad of Special Forces led by Kovax (Djimon Hounsou) to rescue her. A botched helicopter extraction leaves her and the soldiers with only one grim option: to brave this wild frontier on foot, trek across the mountains, and hope for friendly aide in Afghanistan!
To its credit, SPECIAL FORCES is a smartly made military thriller. There's a political undercurrent, as well, that for the most part supports the primary plot of good soldiers doing a dirty job, but the politics of the film put so much of the story in jeopardy. For example, the Taliban chieftain would appear to be exactly what the Taliban would want from a leader (he's ruthless, forcing Elsa to watch helplessly while they strangle a man to death in front of her), but we quickly learn that the man lacks the respect of the local Taliban elders. There's an interesting parallel running through the motion picture about how the press apparently doesn't respect the French government or its military, but, in the end, we pretty much find out that it's all been done for the sake of 'character development.' Unfortunately, there's no way to make sense of what director Stephane Rybojad was trying to saw about the world and these people, but I've no doubt Stephane thought it was all pretty high-brow.
Those quibbles aside, a large portion of the rest of SPECIAL FORCES is extremely well shot, expertly choreographed, and quite thrilling. The rescue goes mostly textbook, but the extraction leaves these folks stranded behind enemy lines and needing to salvage a botched operation. As soldiers would, they comprise their own 'game plan,' which leads to some solid action for fans of this genre. The last quarter (or so) of the film veers into some pretty dire circumstances for all involved, and, while I'd no doubt this is the story Rybojad wanted to tell, it's all pretty downright depressing for my tastes. Kudos for opting for realism, but, if it's realism you want, then I'd seriously question the logic of the skinny blonde waif with no body fat lasting as long as she did.
SPECIAL FORCES is produced by Easy Company, Studio Canal, Canal+, TPS Star, Banque Postale Image 4, A Plus Image 2, and Sofica Manon. DVD distribution is being handled through Entertainment One (E One). For those who might be wondering, this is 'technically' listed as a French-language film which is a bit of a misnomer: yes, there's a wealth of French spoken in there, but there's an awful lot of English, as well. There is an English-dubbing track (2.0 only) available, if you don't want any French; I watched it in French with sub-titles, and I was surprised how much English there was. As for the technical specifications, it looks and sounds magnificent – very clear and crisp images, excellent sound mix, and there's some wonderful John-Ford-esque vistas throughout the film. As for the special features, there's a handful of deleted scenes (nothing grand) and a blink-and-you'll-miss-it three minutes feature on a real-life Special Forces soldier who participated briefly as a character in the film. (My press materials indicates that the Blu-ray release includes an additional 'making of' featurette.)
RECOMMENDED. Look, I love my patriotism just as much as the next patriot, but SPECIAL FORCES ain't no recruiting video for the French that's for sure. Also, it ain't any work any miracles for Pakistan's tourism business. It's a well-made, well-constructed military/political thriller for about 80% of the time, which ain't bad. However, its politics are all over the map (Are the Taliban bad guys? Are they good guys? Are they just misunderstood? Or is it the press who are our bad guys?), and the lack of a coherent message (not the story, which is all well and good) slows the picture down a bit. It's full of good performances and some very curious editing (way too many meaningless dissolves), but the script could've used a rescue mission itself in the last 30 minutes.
In the interests of fairness, I'm pleased to disclose that the fine folks at Entertainment One (E One) provided me with a DVD screener copy of SPECIAL FORCES for the expressed purposes of completing this review.

It's definitely worth a single view. Good production values, and a pretty solid (though a bit predictable) story we've seen before. Still, I can appreciate the blue collar effort.

The North Hardin Trojans had a late night, getting back to school after midnight from Friday's game at Boone County, so Coach Michael Cofer was a little worried about how his team might respond playing Saturday afternoon.
The Trojans put those concerns to rest early.
The Central Hardin Lady Bruins believe they are closer to getting over the hump and after a horrible start Friday night, they almost reached the crossover point.
A year later, the Hancock County Lady Hornets got their revenge against the Central Hardin Lady Bruins.
Junior forward Kelsey Brown scored a game-high 30 points Friday night and freshman guard Kassie Keown added 10 as the Lady Hornets held off the Lady Bruins, 49-45 in the second Bluegrass Cellular New Year's Classic at Bruin Gym in Cecilia.
It's against Bryan Todd's nature to give the John Hardin Lady Bulldogs back-to-back days off — especially right before a game.
But the coach felt his team needed the rest, and the Lady Bulldogs rewarded that trust Friday afternoon with a convincing win over their 5th Region counterpart.
The LaRue County Lady Hawks, like most young and inexperienced teams, have found trouble when they don't get off to a good start.
Friday afternoon at Central Hardin was another example of that.
Forget one-stop shopping. This weekend at Bruin Gym is a one-stop scouting bonanza for area basketball coaches.
Zach Helton was in the middle of two unforgettable plays, but one of them clearly tops the other, according to the Central Hardin senior football player.
And — perhaps surprisingly — it wasn't the one that saved the Bruins' memorable season.
Athletes are often defined by how they do when the stakes are the highest.
Area student-athletes shined in such games this past year.
Coaches regularly say after one of these type of performances the moment wasn't too big for the student-athlete or big-time players step up in big games.
The area didn't produce a Major League Baseball All-Star, like Central Hardin graduate Steve Delabar in 2013, but 2014 was still a memorable year nonetheless.
Micah Wiseman came through in the clutch for the LaRue County Hawks.
