The Darby Translation (DBY) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 Now the men of Israel had sworn in Mizpah, saying, There shall not any of us give his daughter to the Benjaminites as wife. | 1 The men of Israel had taken an oath at Mizpah: "Not one of us will give his daughter in marriage to a Benjamite." |
2 And the people came to Bethel, and abode there till even before God, and lifted up their voices and wept bitterly, | 2 The people went to Bethel, where they sat before God until evening, raising their voices and weeping bitterly. |
3 and said, Jehovah, God of Israel, why is it come to pass in Israel, that there should be this day one tribe lacking in Israel? | 3 "O LORD, the God of Israel," they cried, "why has this happened to Israel? Why should one tribe be missing from Israel today?" |
4 And it came to pass on the morrow, that the people rose early, and built there an altar, and offered up burnt-offerings and peace-offerings. | 4 Early the next day the people built an altar and presented burnt offerings and fellowship offerings. |
5 And the children of Israel said, Who is there among all the tribes of Israel that came not up with the congregation to Jehovah? For they had [made] a great oath concerning him that came not up to Jehovah to Mizpah, saying, He shall certainly be put to death. | 5 Then the Israelites asked, "Who from all the tribes of Israel has failed to assemble before the LORD?" For they had taken a solemn oath that anyone who failed to assemble before the LORD at Mizpah should certainly be put to death. |
6 And the children of Israel repented them for Benjamin their brother, and said, To-day is one tribe extirpated from Israel. | 6 Now the Israelites grieved for their brothers, the Benjamites. "Today one tribe is cut off from Israel," they said. |
7 What shall we do for wives for them that remain? since we have sworn by Jehovah that we will not give them of our daughters for wives. | 7 "How can we provide wives for those who are left, since we have taken an oath by the LORD not to give them any of our daughters in marriage?" |
8 And they said, What one is there of the tribes of Israel that came not up to Mizpah to Jehovah? And behold, there came none to the camp from Jabesh-Gilead, to the congregation; | 8 Then they asked, "Which one of the tribes of Israel failed to assemble before the LORD at Mizpah?" They discovered that no one from Jabesh Gilead had come to the camp for the assembly. |
9 for the people were numbered, and behold, there were none of the inhabitants of Jabesh-Gilead there. | 9 For when they counted the people, they found that none of the people of Jabesh Gilead were there. |
10 And the assembly sent thither twelve thousand men of the most valiant and commanded them, saying, Go and smite the inhabitants of Jabesh-Gilead with the edge of the sword, and the women and the children. | 10 So the assembly sent twelve thousand fighting men with instructions to go to Jabesh Gilead and put to the sword those living there, including the women and children. |
11 And this is the thing which ye shall do: ye shall utterly destroy every male, and every woman that hath lain with man. | 11 "This is what you are to do," they said. "Kill every male and every woman who is not a virgin." |
12 And they found among the inhabitants of Jabesh-Gilead four hundred young women that were virgins, who had known no man by lying with any male, and they brought them to the camp, to Shiloh, which is in the land of Canaan. | 12 They found among the people living in Jabesh Gilead four hundred young women who had never slept with a man, and they took them to the camp at Shiloh in Canaan. |
13 And the whole assembly sent to speak to the children of Benjamin that were at the cliff of Rimmon, and to proclaim peace to them. | 13 Then the whole assembly sent an offer of peace to the Benjamites at the rock of Rimmon. |
14 And Benjamin came again at that time; and they gave them the wives whom they had saved alive of the women of Jabesh-Gilead; but even so they found not enough for them. | 14 So the Benjamites returned at that time and were given the women of Jabesh Gilead who had been spared. But there were not enough for all of them. |
15 And the people repented them for Benjamin, because Jehovah had made a breach in the tribes of Israel. | 15 The people grieved for Benjamin, because the LORD had made a gap in the tribes of Israel. |
16 And the elders of the assembly said, What shall we do for wives for them that remain? for the women have been destroyed out of Benjamin. | 16 And the elders of the assembly said, "With the women of Benjamin destroyed, how shall we provide wives for the men who are left? |
17 And they said, There must be a possession for those of Benjamin that have escaped, that a tribe be not blotted out of Israel. | 17 The Benjamite survivors must have heirs," they said, "so that a tribe of Israel will not be wiped out. |
18 But we cannot give them wives of our daughters, for the children of Israel have sworn, saying, Cursed be he that giveth a wife to the Benjaminites! | 18 We can't give them our daughters as wives, since we Israelites have taken this oath: 'Cursed be anyone who gives a wife to a Benjamite.' |
19 And they said, Behold, there is a feast of Jehovah from year to year in Shiloh, which is on the north side of Bethel, toward the sun-rising of the highway that goes up from Bethel to Shechem, and on the south of Lebonah. | 19 But look, there is the annual festival of the LORD in Shiloh, to the north of Bethel, and east of the road that goes from Bethel to Shechem, and to the south of Lebonah." |
20 And they commanded the sons of Benjamin, saying, Go and lie in wait in the vineyards; | 20 So they instructed the Benjamites, saying, "Go and hide in the vineyards |
21 and see, and behold, if the daughters of Shiloh come out to dance in the dances, then come out of the vineyards, and catch you every man his wife of the daughters of Shiloh, and go to the land of Benjamin. | 21 and watch. When the girls of Shiloh come out to join in the dancing, then rush from the vineyards and each of you seize a wife from the girls of Shiloh and go to the land of Benjamin. |
22 And it shall be, when their fathers or their brethren come to complain to us, that we will say to them, Gratify us with them, because we did not take each man his wife in the war; for ye did not give them to them, that ye should now be guilty. | 22 When their fathers or brothers complain to us, we will say to them, 'Do us a kindness by helping them, because we did not get wives for them during the war, and you are innocent, since you did not give your daughters to them.' " |
23 And the children of Benjamin did so, and took wives, according to their number, of them that danced, whom they caught; and they went and returned to their inheritance, and built the cities, and dwelt in them. | 23 So that is what the Benjamites did. While the girls were dancing, each man caught one and carried her off to be his wife. Then they returned to their inheritance and rebuilt the towns and settled in them. |
24 And the children of Israel departed thence at that time, every man to his tribe and to his family, and they went out from thence every man to his inheritance. | 24 At that time the Israelites left that place and went home to their tribes and clans, each to his own inheritance. |
25 In those days there was no king in Israel; every man did what was right in his own eyes. | 25 In those days Israel had no king; everyone did as he saw fit. |

'Bottled Up': a mother, a daughter, addiction
A two-star review of Enid Zentelis' follow-up feature to "Evergreen," "Bottled Up" — the story of a small-town mother and daughter dealing with addiction.
Seattle Times movie critic
Movie Review
'Bottled Up,' with Melissa Leo, Marin Ireland, Josh Hamilton. Written and directed by Enid Zentelis. 84 minutes. Rated R for language. Sundance Cinemas.
Timely in its topic but uneven in its execution, Enid Zentelis' "Bottled Up" is the story of a small-town mother and daughter facing addiction. Fay (Melissa Leo) wants desperately to help her daughter Sylvie (Marin Ireland), who's struggling with constant pain from a long-ago car accident. But she refuses to see that Sylvie has become hooked on prescription pain medication, and that her daughter's life revolves around getting pills, by whatever means.
Zentelis, a Bellingham native whose previous feature was 2004's "Evergreen" (shot in the Seattle area), nicely creates the feeling of the kind of place where, in Sylvie's words, "no one in our family has ever left this town, ever." Fay works at a small business that offers the interesting combination of mailboxes, doughnuts and piercings; the home she shares with Sylvie (which belonged to her parents) looks like it's been there forever, right down to the Christmas snowmen on the front porch in summertime. But, despite Leo's valiant efforts, Fay is a problematic character; she wildly shifts back and forth on the issue of her daughter's addiction (you don't quite buy that Fay, sick with worry about Sylvie, would lie to a doctor to get pills, as the script requires her to do), and her romantic entanglement with a young environmentalist (Josh Hamilton) lacks chemistry and logic.
You watch "Bottled Up" feeling that the screenplay needed a few more drafts; the dialogue, in particular, doesn't always ring true. But you keep watching, finding pleasure in a little-told story, and in Ireland's fierce, honest portrayal of a flailing young woman caught in the grip of something stronger than herself. She's always believable, even when the movie isn't.

Meadowridge Golf Course's nine-hole par 3 course and expansive driving range appeal to club-wielding neophytes as well as veterans looking to improve their short game without getting blocked by an enormous clown mouth. Today's deal is valid for tee times for two at any time—though rates change after 10 a.m.—and includes a cart rental. Club swingers can also opt to visit Meadowridge's driving range and take advantage of 60 driving stations perched atop real grass and mats that gaze longingly onto the 320-yard expanse in front of them. Armed with a bucket of 100 balls, sphere-crushing patrons can bombard more than 25 targets, precisely place sand shots from the safety of a protected bunker, test putting skills on a four-degree, 24'x75' practice zone, and challenge other guests to golf-tee-juggling contests.
The stately trees and blue grass fairways that line Cedar Rapids Twin Pines Golf Course have been flourishing since 1962, when the first golfers walked the course's emerald alleyways. Eighteen scenic holes invite greenhorns to green-jacket holders to dig up divots while aiming their dimpled orbs around a quartet of ponds. Hole five presents a sharp dogleg left with a water hazard nestled in the crook of its elbow, forcing golfers to either tee off with masterful precision or keep the fairways lush with a steady stream of tears. Before facing the course's unforgiving, undulating fairways or the tree-framed putting green of hole eight, players can warm up at any of the driving range's 20 hitting stations. After a successful round, golfers can drop into the clubhouse to cool off hot putting hands with a frosty beverage and tell old war stories of facing off against rifle-wielding regiments with only their 9-iron.
Course at a Glance: * 18-hole, par 72 course * Length of 5,932 yards from the farthest set of tees * Course rating of 67.8 from the farthest set of tees * Slope rating of 107 from the farthest set of tees * See the scorecard
Wildcat Golf Course began as a nine-hole track in 1997, but after winning the "9-Hole Course of the Year" award from the Iowa Golf Association, it made sense to utilize the surrounding expanses of natural terrain and expand to an 18-hole course. Using the rolling pastureland of Saddleback Ridge as his artistic palette, course architect Mark Kerr designed the layout around Wildcat Creek and five additional ponds, resulting in a course that incorporates water hazards into half of its holes. The course is also characterized by at least five slight doglegs, strategically placed bunkers around fast-rolling greens, and mature pine trees scattered throughout. Wildcat golf course also provides a driving range, two indoor golf simulators, and on-site bar and grill inside the revamped clubhouse.

Constellation Energy Partners LLC (NYSE MKT: CEP) today announced that the company closed the previously announced sale of its Robinson's Bend Field assets, which are located in Tuscaloosa County, Alabama.
The sale resulted in net proceeds of approximately $55.3 million, $50.0 million of which was used to retire debt under the company's credit facility. After the debt reduction, borrowings outstanding under the credit facility totaled $34.0 million. Adjusting for estimated transaction costs, the company maintained a cash balance of approximately $12.1 million as of Feb. 28, 2013, the date of the close. Upon closing of the sale, the borrowing base under the credit facility was immediately reduced to $37.5 million and the facility maturity date was extended to March 31, 2014. Since the third quarter of 2009, the company has reduced debt by 85%.
"This transaction marks a milestone for CEP and helps provide the financial flexibility necessary to support our efforts focused on growing our asset base by drilling for oil and pursuing consolidation opportunities in and around our Mid-Continent footprint," said Stephen R. Brunner, President and Chief Executive Officer of Constellation Energy Partners. "We believe these focused efforts, when combined with our reduced leverage, will have a positive impact on the way we achieve growth and, ultimately, value for our unitholders."
Additional details concerning the sale of the company's Robinson's Bend assets can be found in the company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission and on the company's Web site ( http://www.constellationenergypartners.com).

BELMONT - Sister Mary Michel Boulus died on Sunday, December 9, 2012 at Marian Center, Sacred Heart Convent, Belmont, NC after a period of declining health. Sister Michel, the daughter of Mike and Lammia Boulus, was born on July 27, 1926 in China Grove, NC. She was a graduate of the 1943 class at Concord High School and in the fall of the same year she entered Woman's College of the University of North Carolina where she earned a BA in mathematics and thus began a long and distinguished career in the field of secondary education mathematics.
Sister taught math at Concord High School from 1947-49 and in the summer months she earned certificates in Guidance and Constitutional Law at Columbia University, New York and University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, NC.
On August 2, 1949, Jumela Boulus ,as she was then known, entered the Sisters of Mercy in Belmont, NC at which time she took the name Sister Mary Michel. Ten years later she earned an MA in Math from John Carroll University, Cleveland, OH.
Sister's professional life was one of distinction involving many areas of ministry. She spent fourteen years teaching high school and college math at O'Donoghue High School, Charlotte, Charlotte Catholic High School, the former Asheville Catholic High School, and Sacred Heart Junior College in Belmont. Her leadership skills led to higher positions with the Sisters of Mercy Administration where she served in General Administration for eleven years and ultimately as President of Sacred Heart College. When Sacred Heart College closed Sister assumed the Directorship of Food Services for the Sisters of Mercy which she continued until her retirement in 2011.
In recognition of her many contributions in the field of education Sister was awarded several honorary degrees. Her Alma Mater in Greensboro be-stowed on her an Honorary Doctor of Laws Degree recognizing her as the first alumna from their college to serve as president of a four year liberal arts college in NC. Belmont Abbey College honored her with an Honorary Doctor of Humane Letters Degree for the many specialized programs she inau-gurated at Sacred Heart College. She is also entered in the 1947 list of Who's Who In American Colleges And Universities. In 1985 Sister Michel was honored by Archbishop Francis Zayek and His Excellency Ambassador Abdallah Bouhabib and the Lebanese Community of the Carolinas for her efforts in providing a college education for young Lebanese students. A Cedar of Lebanon tree was planted on the front lawn of Sacred Heart College. Again, In 2011 she was honored by a visit from the Lebanese Ambassador to the United States, His Excellency Antoine Chedid, at which time he pre-sented the Presidential Shield of the Republic of Lebanon by President Michel Sleiman in recognition of her establishing scholarships for students from Lebanon to study English.
Sister Michel held memberships in the National Catholic Educational Association, Southern Association of Financial Aid and Administrators, Ameri-can Council on Education, Association of American Colleges, Society for College and University Planning, and Southern Association of College and Uni-versity Business Officers, National Catholic Education Association, Mercy Colleges Colloquium A social involvement which was very dear to her heart was the Metrolina Phoenician Club which kept her in touch with her Lebanese heritage of which she was so proud.
She served on the following Boards: Holy Angels Nursery Board of Directors; Sacred Heart College Board of Trustees; Mercy Hospital Board of Direc-tors; St Joseph's Hospital Board of Directors; General Council of the Sisters of Mercy and Sisters of Mercy Services Board of Directors.
Sister was noted for her ability to "make the impossible happen." Two of the greatest of these was bringing the late Danny Thomas to Belmont and Charlotte as a fundraiser and sponsoring the Ice Capades.
Sister Michel will long be remembered for her sense of hospitality and her gracious reception of everyone she met. It is said of her that she never met a stranger. Sister Michel had a lively sense of humor and a great ability to laugh at herself. Former students still remember her with gentle fondness as someone who really cared.
In addition to her parents, Sister Michel was predeceased by brothers Paul Boulus, William Boulus and sister Sara Boulus Abowd. She is survived by the Sisters of Mercy, and her sister Elizabeth Boulus of Belmont, sister-in-law Deneen Boulus of Michigan and many nieces and nephews.
The Vigil Service and Visitation will take place on Tuesday December 11 at 7 pm at Sacred Heart Convent, Belmont. A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated at 10am on Wednesday, December 12 in Cardinal Gibbons Chapel, Sacred Heart Convent followed by burial at Belmont Abbey cemetery.
Memorials may be made to Sisters of Mercy 100 Mercy Drive, Belmont, NC 28012

Environmental issues, as well as the big "Green" word, seem to be one of the most talked about topics in the newspapers andnews. More so, this critical state the world has come to, has hit the big screen in documentaries and even as action blockbusters. In 2006, the multi-million production "The Day After Tomorrow" wasreleased to a five hundred million potential viewers all over the U.S.
Directed by Ronald Emmerich, "The Day After Tomorrow", is the story about a climatologist who tries to save the world and his son'slife from the drastic climate change and beginning of a new ice age. This movie starts with a huge ice crack in Antarctica, never thinking that this would trigger the worst of fear in human kindcaused by global warming and the growing of the Greenhouse Effect (Solomon and Manning). As extreme weather, such as tornados, hurricanes, and tsunamis, start hitting the north part of the hemisphere,including New York City where the plot takes place. People start fleeing south, as many are caught in the storm of it all.
The main source of this problem, caused mainly by humans, is the GreenhouseEffect. The same we have heard since we were young by our teachers. Who with passion, try to make children understand what they are to face in their future if no change is done. The Greenhouse Effect isthe heating of the earth's surface by gasses stuck in the atmosphere. These are called greenhouse gases and they release infrared radiation. But these gases stuck in the atmosphere are not bad, buthelp the Earth maintain warm climate. This prevents us from getting very cold temperatures or drastic changes at night or in winter, that is when the sun in not shining. The problem is the AGW or theanthropogenic global warming which is the human contribution to an excess of the greenhouse gases.
The greenhouse effect was first discovered in 1824 by Joseph Fourier, being followed by other... [continua]

We are using a rough sawn white pine for our trim and siding and are in desperate need of help finding a good stain color. We began with a product from Rodda Paint (slightly tweaked version of Oswego Chocolate if anyone is familiar). Either because of the yellow characteristics of the pine or the nature of the stain it has cured to a very yellow/orange tan color that we hate! We have really dark bronze windows that have a cool hue to them and roofing is also really dark brown and black mix. The tiny sample chips from the big home improvement stores and searching online for full pictures has been absolutely no help...so I am turning to you!
Please post pictures of the exterior stain you selected along with the wood species it was applied to.I have been working with a paint store, and purchased many samples before making a selection. As the color is curing it is turning more and more yellow, and I am unhappy. At this point my only choice will be to go much darker than the medium tone I originally chose and cover the color I do not like. I was hoping to see examples of stains in a large scale rather than staining one sample or one board; making a choice and be disappointed. I'm looking for a cool toned dark brown semi-transparent. Thank you to all in advance! |

We have only a little natural wood on the exterior as we made our house as maintenance free as possible. We have a mahogany exterior door and everyone told us to use sikkens as it is such a good weather proofer. We're very happy with the results. |
Thank you so much for the response. We have been recommended Sikkens before as well. The door is beautiful! |

Leavers, AFKers and Malicious feeders Suggestions
What to do with a team of <4
1. Replace the leaver after 2 minutes with a bot Make the bot as smart as technically and humanly possible. Can't make the uberbot? Get the current bot and having killing it worth very little exp and gold to compensate for the hit to the teams chances. Can't hurt that way can it? Send it down the middle and we'll baby sit it as best we can, it'd be better than nothing. 2. Leavers trigger early surrender Leaver is gone for 5 minutes or so and now we can surrender regardless of the current game time. 2b. Same idea but add the leaver in as a Yes for surrendering giving a team of 4 a tie breaker and a team of 3 or less is automatic disqualification or surrender or something. 3. Mercy Draw or Rematch Leaver is gone 7 minutes and pop up a vote to continue playing or reque 9 people now vote on continuing or reentering the que. Give a free vote a Draw from the player that left and ties of 5 draw 5 continue would side with the team of fewwer players. Or just ask the losing team to abandon or continue, maybe offering a continue bonus incentive or something in that nature. Adding to this idea of voting for a draw, an entirely new feature that could even be used without leavers in mind. One team out class another severely or for any other reason that players can come up with, one team can offer a draw and both teams vote and the outcome instead of surrendering because an equal sharing of the matches rewards instead of a winner and a loser. 4. Reduce the gold or exp champion deaths give when there are only 4 summoners connected and further if there are only 3 5. Itzwarty "Reduce time spent dead for each leaver" I suggest each player missing gives the team a 30% reduction in their time spent dead, a lot of these games are lost simply because 5 players v 4 is over as soon as 1 or 2 of the lesser team is dead after the 50 minute mark simply because the 5 v 2 is way way impossible to fend off on turrets. Leaver prevention: 1. Negative reinforcemen 10+ minute ban that doesn't start until AFTER the left game ends and leaver mark is issued. Take their IP / XP and distribute it amongst the poor sods who now suffer a great chance of a loss. This is how gunbound does it with their matches. You leave, you give up 100 gold to each person you left behind to rot. Make it like 20 ip to each or 25 ip ot each or 10 or 15. Each leave is a Debt. 1 leave = - 1 ip/exp that persists on wins and loses until some criteria is met 44 leaves = - 44 or if greater than earnings, nothing is earned. You take off a leave debt point for every 2 or 3 games played consecutively or non-consecutively. Ditto to above but instead of messing with someones ip/xp just have an accumulating ban that is relative to the amount of leaver marks a player has. 80 leaves could be an 81 minute ban upon leaving your next game. This would work well with an option to work off leaver debt with how many consecutive games you accumulate. YOU COULD EVEN SELL ACCOUNT 'resets' That reset wins losses and yes a leaver's debt as well as all other records and you could even include that with a name change in the riot points store for your bottom line. Lock accounts beyond 150+ leaves for 48 hours or more or ban them outright. 2. Positive Reinforcement You already have a games in a row bonus, but adding landmarks that show up instead of leave marks you have loyalty points that people can see as they grant you bonus ip/exp ect. 100 games in a row without abandoning an entire match? 100 bonus ip/exp 1000? 1000 Bonus points of ip/exp or just ip. Achievements that show on the forum and on profiles in game and in matches. Colored name or icon that stands out for each 100+ games in a row, marking you as an honorable player. We need Vote to kick. Make it count as a leave and they can't rejoin till after the game ends, like a leave. Or Have it build up points as well, get vote kicked 100 times and you're banned because there isn't much you can argue that says people booted you for no reason 100 times. Add a front end to the champion selection to vote to continue and separate it from the looking for parties system. Thats it for my brain tonight, goodnight. Quote:
I think many of your 'negative reinforcements' are a bit too harsh. |
Thank you tambreo!
Each post of support goes a long way to pass ideas to the people who can do something with them. Yes, my negative reinforcement suggestions are harsh...to leavers. I don't leave, the 3 I have are because my computer "asus cg5290" is not willing to warm boot after freezing and 3 times I was playing LoL when it happened to crash and won't start back up for quite some time. Leavers are a plague and the best cure is to inoculate everyone with a psychological vaccine of prevention. Give the majority of the population a taste of the negative reinforcements and they won't come down with a case of leaving again. Then, after they're cured, if what happens to me happened to them, it can be forgiven. I saw a guy with 44 leaves on my list last night. I've seen guys around with more and no reason to care. Most of the suggestions aren't gonna hurt at 1 or 15 leaves. Its when you edge towards 50 that the leaving starts to accumulate hurt. |
This is a great post, Xet! I hope Riot gets a hold of this and actually looks at it.
Well thought out and pretty easy to implement, I'd think. Cheers! (ps, when you repost this, always link back to your original thread. i had to do some digging to find this from the UI thread :)) |
I love everything but the bot idea. Leavers are better than feaders.
This is extremely necessary. Also, idlers at base. If you don't leave your base/attack for X minutes, should be auto-kicked.
this is really nice and well thought out only thing is for that ip that would get to the point were you getting 1k ip a game and besides everything else seems very good beacause me beign lvl 30 we lose one guy its over so yea i hope riot looks at this
I posted something similiar to this in "Tired of 4v5s" just a few threads down. With the positive reinforcement as you stated and my idea of not allowing individuals to enter games unless they physically click play now when a que pops, I think it would just about do away with leavers and afks entirely.
Still wondering if we're going to get out of this funk of constant rage quiters and IP/EXP GAINING AFKERS!
I've had many people afk a game, get the points and never be there. Or leave during and gloat with nerd rage. |

Donald Trump Drops F-Bomb In Speech

Trump Responds To Obama's Release Of Birth Certificate
Oh, how The Donald was crowing this morning. Taking complete credit for forcing the President to release his birth certificate, Trump threw his shoulder WAY out of joint patting himself on the back. We've got a link to the video.
The President Has Released His Birth Certificate!

The Donald and Bill Cosby have exchanged heated words through the media over the last couple of weeks. We've got a link to a video recap of what they've had to say.
Trump Sends Investigators To Hawaii
You can say this about The Donald: he doesn't give up. Even with folks like Fox News' Bill O'Reilly telling him the "birther" stuff is nonsense, Trump is still talking about it. We've got a link to an interview with NBC where he talks about sending investigators to Hawaii to check things out.
O'Reilly Doesn't Think Trump Believes "This Birther Stuff"
Donald Trump continued his "tour de Birther" last night by appearing on Bill O'Reilly's Fox News show. O'Reilly seemed skeptical not only of the idea that Obama wasn't born in this country, but also about whether Trump actually believes it. Take a look.
Trump's A Birther?
Donald Trump has become a fixture on Fox News' morning show. Today he discussed Obama's citizenship and his "concerns" about that status. Are we going to have a birther running for president? Take a look for yourself.

According to Pump It Up, air is essential for a successful rowdy romp. During three fun-filled open-bounce sessions, children leap around gargantuan air-filled bounce houses, skip down air-filled slides, and slither like legless snakes through an air-filled obstacle course, losing themselves in a world of multi-colored inflatamania. Pump It Up's indoor air arena is climate-controlled and cleanly maintained according to rigorous guidelines set by a team of well-trained staff members. Parents play for free, so childless adults who want to play will need to borrow their neighbor's kid or win one by collecting enough cereal-box tops. Open bounce times run during the day on Mondays and Fridays (10:30 a.m.–noon), and in the evening on Fridays and Sundays (5:30 p.m.–7 p.m.). Check the schedule and get ready to deck the walls with jolly bounces.
Voted a favorite place for party services by Carolina Parent readers from 2010-2013, Bounce U welcomes kids to descend upon an inflatable, climate-controlled playground where they can bounce and ricochet in safety. Along with birthday parties and group outings, Bounce U hosts open-bounce sessions that let sock wearers of all ages imagine they're synchronized leapers in a futuristic moon performance as they carom around the inflatable stadium, expending energy with every leap. Adults are welcome to act like 8-year-olds and join the vivacious youngsters in the playground.
The inflatable arena also opens its buoyant doors to technology-themed bounce camps and programs, where boys and girls spend half their time with brain-bolstering projects such as creating their own stop-motion animation movies or reprogramming the remote to skip all news channels. After stretching the limits of their imaginations, kids then spend the other half of the day stretching the limits of their limbs on the inflatable playground.
Funigan's livens up family outings with an arsenal of attractions, including mini bowling, a 17-foot rock-climbing wall, and one of the largest Soft Play fun zones in North Carolina. The Family Fun Pack #2 grants any size group 12 individual attraction admissions and comes with 75 tokens to indulge the appetites of arcade games such as skeeball, whack-a-mole, and mini hoops. After summiting indoor mountaintops and uncovering the secret button combo to turn Mortal Combat characters into Greenpeace volunteers, famished gamers can power up on the large cheese pizza and pitcher of soda included in the Fun Pack.
Attractions such as miniature golf, batting cages, and laser tag make Adventure Landing an ideal location for getting in fun, interactive family time. Whether the kids opt for a heart-accelerating whip around the go-kart track or a few swings of the bat, the fun center gives families every excuse to band together or square off against one another in friendly competition. School, church, and corporate outings are available as well, giving groups of all ages a place to gather, nosh on pizza, and create complex victory dances.
A member of a previously undiscovered species known as skateasaurus stakes its territory, tracing figure eights along the rink's hardwood floor. Dressed in blue-and-white shorts and a red trucker hat, the plush, green-and-yellow dinosaur—otherwise known as Skato—eschews eating children, and instead prompts them to shake it all about in rounds of Hokey Pokey. This fun ambiance extends to the rest of United Skates of America's roller rink, surrounded by lime-green walls and manned by a smiling staff.
At RushHour Karting, speed demons can kart to their spleens' content, regardless of the weather, on a challenging all-indoor track. The 1/3-mile course fills up drivers' adrenaline tanks with hairpin curves, winding turns, and high-speed straights. New SODI RX7 karts with 6.5-horsepower engines and improved safety features reach race speeds of up to 40 mph for an adult-sized dose of acceleration exhilaration for drivers 15 and up, while junior karts provide more manageable speeds for drivers 8 to 14 years old. Today's deal gets each driver onto the track for two eight-minute heats, providing an ample cure for the toe tingles that come with lead foot.

I need some help, if people know the magic words I should be using. Or at least some commiseration, so I know I'm not alone in being frustrated!
I lived in NYC for 15 years. When I requested estimates from folks for anything-- tile repair, diagnosing and fixing a stove, installing carpet-- I'd get a full-page, professional-looking quote with all parts and labor broken out. It would always explain what the cost did and didn't cover. And it would have part numbers for anything substantial. This seemed perfectly normal and appropriate to me. Now I live in Essex County, North Jersey. And for the eight times I've had to get estimates since I've moved here, they've essentially written a number on a piece of paper and handed it to me. When I've asked for the figures to be broken down, I get a lot of resistance. Sometimes they'll give a verbal accounting like "it's more than half parts". Other times, they mistakenly think I'm trying to negotiate price, so they drop the price still without explaining a thing about how they came to it. One guy sent a breakdown for a chimney repair that included line items for Azek trim boards and ridge vents. It was obviously just a cut and paste of details from another job! I've even gotten people who flat out refuse. One guy, who had provided an estimate typed up in Word, told me his "system" wouldn't let him break down the prices into parts and labor. Another told me "it costs what it costs." These are on $5k minimum jobs! And I'm talking about professional companies, in some of these cases, with hundreds of employees and multiple locations. Is this typical for Essex County? Is there a magic handshake I need to know to get a proper estimate? Do people really let companies like this do work on their houses?! |
Follow-Up Postings:
I'm guessing that the governing authorities in Essex County don't require contractors to give detailed estimates, and that those in NYC do. |
Governing authorities or not, it's only good business practice for both parties to have a clear understanding of the work to be performed and the price to be paid. I think Hren's problem might be that the contractors he is talking to are busy and really don't need to "sell" their work right now. Therefore they are not going through the effort of a detailed proposal just for the customer to compare it someone else's bid. If the customer buys the rough estimate and says he wants to push forward, then I as a customer would demand a completetd signed agreement detailing the work and the price. I would not hire any Any contractor not willing to do that, period. But, I can understand a contractor not going over all of the details in the estimate phase. |
