text: 000 FXUS63 KILX 302339 AFDILX Area Forecast Discussion NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE LINCOLN IL 539 PM CST Fri Jan 30 2015 .SHORT TERM...(Tonight) ISSUED AT 327 PM CST FRI JAN 30 2015 Little happening in the short term, as axis of high pressure extends northeast-southwest across the forecast area this afternoon. Cirrus clouds beginning to spread eastward across the Missouri/Illinois border ahead of the organizing storm system to our southwest, and skies will become partly cloudy overnight. Coolest conditions expected over the northeast CWA where less cloud cover is anticipated, with lows near 20. Temperatures not expected to move much after midnight as southerly winds start to increase. && .LONG TERM...(Saturday through Friday) ISSUED AT 327 PM CST FRI JAN 30 2015 Models have shifted a tad north again with the track/location of the heaviest snowfall with the approaching weekend system. As with previous systems that have moved across the area the past couple of months, our CWA will be right in the middle of where two mid level troughs will be phasing together. On the surface, the low pressure area is still developing in the southwestern US and will not move out into the southern plains until Saturday evening. However, a cold front will be dropping down into Illinois at the same time, and how far this gets into central Illinois will determine where the cutoff of the warm air and cold air is, which will also determine where the heavy snowfall will occur. Models are in fairly good agreement, but have trended north, so there remains some uncertainty as to amounts and locations of the heaviest snowfall this weekend. What is known, is that precip will begin Sat afternoon in the west and then progress eastward through the night and continue through Sunday, then taper off and end Sun night. The question still remains pcpn type. Based on current forecast guidance, the precip should be either rain or snow, or a mix. Conditions do not look favorable for the other types of winter weather at this time; i.e. freezing rain and sleet. So after considerable analysis and discussions with surrounding offices, we have come to a consensus with the forecast for this weekend. With the resulting low pressure area tracking eastward across southern Illinois, it looks like the heaviest snowfall will be along and north of a Rushville to Danville line Saturday night through Sunday. With decent isentropic lift and sufficient moisture to work with, believe highest amounts will be in the 7 to 9 inch range. Just south of that line, snowfall amounts look to be in the 5 to 7 inch range. Lesser amounts will be likely south of this area, in southeast Illinois, due to the warmer temps hanging around Sat night into Sunday morning...and the possibility of the precip being a mix of rain and snow. This area, the amounts should be roughly in the 3 to 5 inch range, and will include the I-70 area. So based on this, we have already issued a Winter Storm Watch for most of central and eastern Illinois, beginning tomorrow at 6 pm and continuing through midnight Sunday night. The bulk of the snow, especially in the north, should fall between 6 pm Sat through 6 pm Sun. If the warm air get further north and/or hangs around longer, or the low tracks a little further north then snowfall totals will be much less across the whole area. Due to these continued uncertainties and possible changes, it was decided not to go with a warning and just keep the watch going at this time. Beyond the weekend system, conditions will be relatively dry. After a cold day on Mon, temps will rise to around freezing for Tue. Then temps will fall again to below freezing for the rest of the week. There is a couple of weak waves coming through but moisture appears limited, so there will not be any mentionable pcpn in the forecast at this time. && .AVIATION...(For the 00Z TAFS through 00Z Saturday evening) ISSUED AT 539 PM CST FRI JAN 30 2015 Clear skies/light winds will prevail across central Illinois this evening before high/thin cloudiness begins to increase from the west overnight. Latest model runs bring precip into the area slightly faster than previously expected, with consensus showing light rain developing between 19z and 21z Sat. Winds will gradually veer to the southwest and increase to around 10kt by midday Sat. && .ILX WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... WINTER STORM WATCH from Saturday evening through Sunday evening FOR ILZ027>031-036>038-040>057. && $$ SHORT TERM...Geelhart LONG TERM...Auten AVIATION...Barnes

text: SOURCE: Young and Restless Casting Director PEEVED Over Christel Khalil Casting Drama! Jamey Giddens August 9, 2013 The Young and The Restless 36 Comments I am hearing legendary casting director Judy Blye Wilson is fit to be tied over allegations Christel Khalil's agency tried to send her out on an audition for The Young and the Restless. On Aug. 7, The Wrap published an article detailing Khalil's reported beef with Mavrick Artists Agency. According to the website, Khalil has filed suit againt the firm, which allegedly : failed to uphold their end of the representation contract. She charges that during a very busy pilot season this year, she was only sent out on two auditions for series regular roles. She was not sent on any commercial auditions. Khalil accuses the defendants of intentionally not paying her for a guest spot on "2 Broke Girls." The complaint also alleges the agency essentially stole money from the actress above its 10 percent commission. Perhaps most egregiously however, Mavrick Artists Agency allegedly sent Khalil out to audition for a role on her own show, "Young and the Restless," which "collectively embarrassed, if not mortified" the actress. She has four times been nominated for an Emmy in that role, once winning for the role of Lily Winters Ashby.

Six simple ways to give your home a fall faceliftSept. 25, 2013 |
By Debbie Gardner
email@example.com EAST LONGMEADOW – There's a simple way to give your home a fresh look for fall, and all it will cost is a little elbow grease. Taking the time to deep clean, declutter and organize your rooms can go a long way toward refreshing your living space, said Yvonne Afonso, owner of Dressing Homes by Y.L.A., a home styling service that assists sellers and homeowners in optimizing the style and space in their homes. As the weather cools and families move indoors for activities, Afonso noted, "we're closing up houses that have so many allergens from the summer season," it makes sense to make the time for a fall cleanup – with a restyling twist. She outlined these simple steps to making the most of an indoor fall cleanup. 1. Make decluttering easy. Nothing can freshen the look of a room faster than clearing away the clutter. "Get the donation bags out [and] put trash bags in all the rooms you want to declutter," Afonso said. "If the bags are in the room, you will execute [the decluttering] and not put it off." She added that many nonprofits are always looking for good, usable items – from home goods to clothing – and by decluttering your home you can help out others in your community. 2. Get the allergens out. "Go above and beyond the regular routine cleaning [of your home]," Afonso said, adding that by doing a thorough washing and cleaning of surfaces you are improving your home's indoor air quality for the colder months ahead. "Wash the windows, clean the carpets, wash your bedding," she noted, adding that upholstery and window sheers and draperies should also be given a good cleaning before the heating season begins. 3. Think about your home's traffic pattern. Afonso said the ease – or difficulty – of moving through a room creates a feeling for that space, one that often transcends the décor you've chosen for a room. "There should be a natural movement through a room, a fluid movement," she said. "You should not be bumping into things." Don't be afraid to remove a chair, or even a large piece of furniture such as a bookcase to allow people to move freely through a room. "If you have to zigzag your way through a room, there's something wrong [with your floor plan]," she said. "If you have exhausted all of your mental energy trying to figure out a flow pattern, it's time to call a professional." 4. Let the light in. Look at how you are placing furnishings in the room, paying attention to their proximity to windows, Afonso said. Proper placement maximizes natural light in your home, an important asset, as the days grow shorter. "You shouldn't [not be able to] see outside because there is a bookcase in front of a window," she said. 5. Organize those high-traffic spaces. Afonso said certain rooms, such as the kitchen, could benefit from a periodic tune up of how you use your space. For example, by re-thinking where you store certain items, you can often cut down on the time it takes to complete everyday tasks. "Store your plates and flatware near the dishwasher [for example]," Afonso said, adding that by placing kid-friendly dishes and flatware in a basket at an accessible height, you can both empower your kids to do things for themselves and encourage them to help with daily chores. 6. Revisit the organization theme throughout your home. "Organizing is a big deal," Afonso said, adding that so much everyday family strife often stems from people not being able to locate something they need. She noted that popular stores such as Ikea, The Container Store and even the mass retailer, Target, carry such things as stylishly lined baskets, decorator shelving and other of-the-moment types of organizing units that can be used to help keep clutter from returning in nearly any room.

Joan (Strittmatter) Holmes of Nokomis, Fla., formerly of Eastampton, died Sunday, July 13, 2014 in Nakomis, Fla. She was 81.
Born in Philadelphia, Mrs. Holmes was the former owner of Miss Joan's Dance Studio in Eastampton, training and teaching hundreds of young people in the art of dance. Joan retired in 1994 after she and her husband Jack were involved in a head-on collision near Norristown, Pa. Both of her legs were shattered. Although she learned how to walk again, her dancing career was over. Joan sold the business to a former student, Shelby Fulmer who moved the studio from Joan's home in Eastampton to a new studio on Route 38 in Hainesport combining it with Dansations.
Joan was a former member of St. Paul's Lutheran Church in Hainesport. Upon retirement, Joan and her husband Jack moved to Nakomis, Fla. Eleven days after Joan's death, Jack also died. A funeral service was held for both of them at Emmanuel Lutheran Church in Venice, Fla., and their ashes were interred in the Cremation Garden of that church. Joan and Jack were surrounded by family members, care givers and members of Emmanuel Lutheran.
She is survived by two children, Marilyn J. Holmes and John Francis Holmes, as well as grandchildren and other family members. Joan Holmes will be fondly remembered by many of her students who still live in the area. Perinchief Chapels

CA father arrested for alleged attack on adult son
SANTA ROSA, Calif. (AP)
Authorities say a California father has been arrested for allegedly slashing his adult son with a knife in a grocery parking lot.
The Santa Rosa Press Democrat reports (http://bit.ly/19W0GYA) 57-year-old Thomas Allen Dunn was booked into jail Sunday for investigation of making criminal threats and assault with a deadly weapon.
Police say the 27-year-old victim was found by a shopper at the Santa Rosa grocery store, lying on the ground and yelling that he had been stabbed. The man said he jumped out of vehicle driven by Dunn following the attack.
The victim told police his father grew angry when they were unable to get drug prescriptions from pharmacies.
Police say Dunn tried to stab his son in the stomach and slashed his son's palm outside the grocery store.

Sanjay Parthasarathy spent 19 years at Microsoft, working in a variety of executive roles, even hiring now CEO Satya Nadella into the software giant's product group in the early 1990s. In 2009, Parthasarathy retired and traveled to India where he started thinking about the next chapter of his life.
"I worked alone for a year and talked to everyone who would spare time to discuss my ideas," said Parthasarathy. The best of those ideas was Indix — a software startup he founded in 2010 with the ambitious goal of building "the world's largest and deepest product database."
The 48-year-old exec — who in the 1980s captained the Anna University cricket team before going on to earn a Masters at MIT —officially launched Indix last October. To date, the business intelligence platform has been adopted by leading retailers who are using it to track pricing of goods being sold over the Internet, including those of competitors.
In a way, Indix is an online inventory system — a comprehensive listing of what's for sale online, how much items cost and how those prices are fluctuating. In that way, it's similar to the analytics platform that Kirkland-based iSpot is building for television commercials.
Venture-backed and growing, Indix now employs 44 people in offices in Seattle and Chennai, India. We caught up with Parthasarathy for this installment of Startup Spotlight, a regular GeekWire feature presented by Comcast Business.
Explain what you do so our parents can understand it: "We organize, analyze and visualize the world's product information so everyone can act on it."
Inspiration hit us when: "I was watching this presentation at the TED conference in Oxford, England. If 'software is eating the world,' then algorithms are a big part of that. So, why not build algorithms that could look at every piece of product information on the web and generate insight into things that you know you know, things that you know you don't know, and also things that you don't know that you don't know?"
VC, Angel or Bootstrap: "Bootstrap first, angel next, and VC after that."
Our 'secret sauce' is: "What we call 'product data science'. Indix has developed patented machine learning algorithms to collect, structure, and organize products and product-related data, in addition to a real-time, customizable analytics platform."
The smartest move we've made so far: "Have the engineering team based in Chennai, India."
The biggest mistake we've made so far: "Priced our product too low to start with."
Would you rather have Gates, Jobs, Zuckerberg or Bezos in your corner: "Gates, because I've enjoyed working with him in the past."
On Satya Nadella's appointment at Microsoft: "Satya's always had the 'bigger picture' and a 'broader picture' view of things and his first few weeks have shown that he does hew to the bigger and broader view, and appropriately so. His use of the UW Washington rowing team as an analogy for Microsoft getting its 'swing' back is an example of the bigger and broader picture view. He will continue to use learning from history, sport, poetry and other fields to examine and understand Microsoft's situation and way forward. So far he's done things right and used the right words and cues."
Our world domination strategy starts when: "We get to 500 million products in our system, and are on the way to a billion."
Rivals should fear us because: "We attempt to solve crazy hard problems."
We are truly unique because: "We know how to collect, organize, analyze, visualize, personalize, and platformize product big data."
The biggest hurdle we've overcome is: "By starting with the hardest product categories, we built a way to scale our solution independent of the product category."
What's the one piece of advice you'd give to other entrepreneurs just starting out: "Pick an area you don't know much about so you will come at the problem without the expert's baggage."

The AzzA Solano 1000 Full Tower Case
The front of the Solano is flanked in the middle with ten 5.25" bay covers. There are no limitations on how you choose to configure your optical and hard drives. One of these plates holds the AzzA Logo and can be moved as well. The surrounding plastic has a simple design, but is still appealing and structurally sound.
The left side of the chassis has the panel with a window installed. The 230mm fan takes up most of the panel's real estate, pushing the window forward giving a view mostly of the drive rack. Once the fan is powered up and spinning, you can see through it as well.
Looking at things from the back, the top's "cap" that holds the other 230mm fan is more pronounced. Just below is a ventilated section that will allow heat from the motherboard to have a place to escape, instead of being trapped in the corner. Below this is the rear I/O and 120mm exhaust fan with a three speed switch just above it for control. Next we run into the seven, vented expansion slots that have another vented area next to it, which also offers water tubing to pass through here. Last but not least is the spot for the bottom mounted PSU.
The right side panel of the Solano is solid and black like the rest of the exterior. There is a handy little finger groove near the back to get the panel off a little easier.
Looking down at the top of the chassis, the back two thirds of the top is vented for the 230mm fan to easily exhaust air. Just in front of this is a tray for USB drives, change, or other odds and ends. At the very front (near the bottom) is where the front I/O panel is located.
The front I/O panel incorporates the reset button and HDD activity light at the left. In the middle there are an E-SATA, three USB 2.0, and headphone and microphone jacks. This leaves the power button which is backlit with a blue LED used as the power LED.

Around 10:45 pm, a woman called 911, reporting that she had been flagged down by the victim. KPD arrived on the scene, along with aid personnel, finding the victim bleeding from a gash to the head. He also complained of some arm pain; the man claims that several people were involved in the attack, but there was one "primary suspect." That man is described as a white male, about 35 years in age, 5'7" to 5'10", with blond, medium-length hair. The suspect was reported to be wearing a green shirt and blue jeans, and was last seen heading up a trail in the direction of the Green Hills Cemetery. The victim was treated and released from Saint John Medical Center. The suspect remains at large.

York City midfielder Lee Bullock has joined Blue Square Bet Premier Division side Gateshead on a one-month loan deal.
The 31-year-old has made six appearances for the Minstermen this season, but has found it difficult to hold down a regular place in Gary Mills' starting line-up.
Bullock, who will go straight into the Tynesiders' squad for their league game at Kidderminster this weekend, joined York following his release from Bradford in the summer.
He began his career as a trainee at Bootham Crescent back in 1998 and after making more than 150 appearances moved on to Cardiff and then Hartlepool before signing for the Bantams in 2008.

"The brief pieces collected in this volume are as much short stories as they are essays as they are psychoanalytic studies. In every chapter, the stage is set for consideration of large matters—the nature of passion, the crucial role of illusion and disillusion in life, what constitutes heroism—but always in relation to a very particular story… (more)

The Turkish Aegean Coast region
Dalyan is in South West Turkey and is a very scenic and pleasant place to spend your holidays.
If you are looking for sunshine, culture, hospitality and a delicious cuisine, Dalyan will definitely suit you.
There is a local Dalyan market on Saturdays, where you can find anything from stylish clothes to the local fresh produce of fruits and vegetables.
There is a large array of cafes, bars, restaurants and shops in Dalyan to suit all tastes.
You can take a rowing boat (it will make for a memorable experience) across the river to visit Kaunos, the ancient city, after reaching the top of the hill, not only can you wander around the remains of the old settlement but you can admire the wonderful views of Dalyan and the amazing river channels from above.
You can have a mud bath with the therapeutic mud, a visit to Sultaniye is a must, you can arrange a boat trip that will take you here, there is also a natural hot spring which is good for healing ailments and general health. After the boat trip will take you on to Koycegiz where you can experience a charming town on a lake, you can visit the local market and have an alfresco lunch overlooking the stunning Lake Koycegiz. (you may even spot a turtle while sitting there)
Another must is visiting Iztuzu beach (also known as Turtle beach) it is a short boat or bus ride away, whatever you prefer.
The bus takes you to one end of the beach and the boat takes you to the opposite end.
The beach is beautiful, clean and seems to go on for forever.
It lovely that the beach is divided by a strip of sand and that the salt water is one side and the fresh water the other. (you can choose which side you would prefer a dip)
Lying on the beach, with the sound of the waves and with the mountain backdrop (bus end) makes for a truly relaxing experience.

easy to put together and nice on the wall, i think i need another one
Before I could even find the spot for it, the joints came apart. It is pretty cheaply made.
Nice attractive conversation piece with multiple ways to decorate it. Displayed in my living room.
I haven't even hung this on the wall and the wood came apart at the seams. Apparently it is only held together with low quality glue.
Was very happy with this shelf would recommend to family or friends

IS IT FAIR that a single parent family of 2 children is charged the entry fee of $13.50, when a two parent family of 2 is charge an extra 50 cents entry fee How about if that single parent whom is studying fulltime or a pensioner having to pay the same entry fee... is that fair What about any elderly pension card holder or student whom is expected to pay the same entry fee as an 2 parent income earning family... You do the maths. If there are two parents and three children then all they have to pay is $16.00 entry fee (works out to be $3.20 per head). So why are the rest of us being disadvantaged by this whole deal. All, we are asking is for a casual concession entry fee, for pensioners and students and an all day pass out for all. The return of the BBQ would also be kindly apprieciated as well. Everyone knows that the Tweed Regional aquatic centre was closed down and refurbished. Well now that it has re opened many residents and visitors will not be able to afford to go because of the price jump in entry fees. But this is not the only changes that have come about due to the new regional aquatic centre. There are now limitations to the usage of the diving boards and the BBQ area has disappeared. The waterslide still exists but its time slots are now rotated between the diving boards. But worst of all is the entry fee of $4.50 for all above the age of 3 years old. There is no casual concession fee, and it is not for all day but per visit. So if you come in for an hour and leave and want to return a little later on you need to pay the entry fee again. Well there have been a lot of changes since the old pricing structure for not only the individual but for the schools and private coaches and swim schools. It seems that the centre is monopolising on the services thus creating limitations to the community. Its a service that they are providing but it is being run as a profit making business- profit for whom We have the right to say that this is wrong and changes need to be made, have your say today so that we can all have the opportunity to swim in our community pool together. This petition will be forwarded to the council and aquatic centre at the end of February 2009. Please support this cause and spread the word to your friends and family. (Once you have signed this petition the site requests a voluntary donation, please do not let this deter you, as it is part of this sites service, and you are under no obligation to donate and will not effect your signature.) Thanks again for your support.

6 years ago Comments: Get back to how pools used to be for the public and not like a greedy money making business, ie get more family orientated. Too expensive and too restrictive. Should be more for the public, not private swimming groups getting priority all the time. Should be a separate pool or centre for these groups if not enough room for everyone. Bring back the bbq area. Disgusting to charge on re-entry from moving your car as 2 hour limit on spaces. Should be no charge on re-entry. Should be no limit on parking as people should stay as long as they like. Should be no limits on diving boards and water slide either.

Here's a picture of Wolfgang's dad, "The Man Who Wouldn't Salute".
A New Worship Song
Ever wonder what a new worship song sounds like before it gets on an album? I'll tell you: pretty rough. Here's a song I wrote recently for possible inclusion on Sovereign Grace Ministries upcoming album. I'm not sure if it will make the album, but you can hear it anyway. It's just my voice and acoustic guitar, so it's pretty rough, but you get the idea. Click on the play button to listen.
Mark Altrogge To Be A Permanent Fixture
My dad has been a guest blogger this week and has been putting up some great stuff. So we decided that from now on my dad and I will write on alternating weeks, which means that you're going to be seeing a whole lot more of Mark in the future!
The Man Who Wouldn't Salute
A few months ago I had the privilege of accompanying my friend Dave Harvey to Hamburg, Germany to participate in a conference sponsored by Wolfgang Wegert, a pastor who has great influence in Europe. Wolfgang has held huge crusades over 30 years of ministry, and now has many churches and leaders who look to him as a spiritual father. He produces one of only 3 government sanctioned Christian television programs that is broadcast throughout Germany.In his office hangs a copy of a newspaper photo, entitled "The Man Who Wouldn't Salute."
Wolfgang's father was a believer and worked in the shipyards in Hamburg during World War II. Every month Hitler would come to the shipyards to inspect the fleet. All the workers were required to assemble for Hitler's visit. When the Feurher would pass by the thousands of workers would all extend their arms and give him the "sig heil" salute together.
The photo captured hundreds of ship workers in the act of saluting. But near the middle, and slightly off to the right, one man could be seen not saluting. This "Man Who Would Not Salute" was Wolfgang's father, standing there with his arms crossed in defiance of Hitler.
As the War progressed, Hitler started making his inspections on Sundays, so that workers could assemble without having to take time away from shipbuilding. Wolfgang's father refused to join assemblies, so that he could attend his church, despite people's warnings that he would suffer the consequences of not showing up to salute Hitler. Nothing ever happened to him.
What a heritage Wolfgang has. In the providence of God, out of thousands who saluted Hitler, his father was an uncompromising Christian. If your parents are believers, praise God for his providence in causing you to be born to them. What a blessing to have been taught the gospel from a young age. What a blessing to have the gospel lived out before you from your childhood.
If you are a believer with children still at home, praise God for his providence in saving you so that you can influence your children for Jesus Christ. Wolfgang's father could never have imagined that in God's providence his son would have such widespread ministry for Christ. We can't possibly imagine what effect our words and example will have on our children and future generations of believers.

If You Can Read This…
?And yet, though our present views and reflections upon Providence are so short and imperfect in comparison to that in heaven, yet?it has so much excellence and sweetness in it that I may call it a little heaven?It is certainly a highway of walking with God in this world, and a soul may enjoy as sweet communion with Him in His providences as in any of His ordinances.? –John Flavel, The Mystery of Providence, 22
God's providence is his sustaining and directing all things for his glory and our good. There are no accidents. Meditating on God's providence in our lives is a sweet exercise that produces joy and thanksgiving.
If you can read this, in God's Providence, you were either born in an English-speaking nation or have been able to learn English. Because we speak English, we have access to the Bible and the gospel. Many have never heard the gospel or God's word because no translation exists in their tongue. How blessed we are to have God's word in the English language.
English was the language of many of the Puritans and great Christian teachers. I have been blessed so much from reading works like The Precious Jewel of Christian Contentment by Jeremiah Burroughs, The Mystery of Providence by John Flavel, Sin and Temptation by John Owen, The Bruised Reed by Richard Sibbes. Not to mention works and messages by Charles Spurgeon, Thomas Watson, John Bunyan, Jonathan Edwards and others who wrote in English.
And think of all the contemporary preachers and teachers who write and speak in English who have benefitted our lives. I've been so blessed by men like C.J. Mahaney, John Piper, Jerry Bridges, R.C. Sproul, and many others. If God had seen fit in his providence to have me speak another language, I might not have had access to the works of these men.
And how many wonderful worship songs and hymns have been written or translated into English? I'm sure there are multitudes of incredible spiritual books and songs written in other languages, but I've been blessed simply by virtue of being born in the good ol' English speaking USA. If you can read this, praise God for his providence that you were born in an English-speaking nation.

Born In The USA Part 2
Ever thank God that you were born in a nation where we can preach and practice the gospel?My friend Scott recently traveled to China, where his company is building a plant. The town he visited has no religion of any kind – none. What if you'd been born there? Or what if you'd been born into a Hindu family in India?
But all that I have said is very inconsiderable in comparison with the spiritual mercies and advantages you here enjoy for your souls?Suppose it had been your lot to have fallen in any of those vast continents possessed by pagans and heathens at this day, who bow down to the stock of a tree, and worship the host of heaven?Or suppose your lot had fallen among [Muslims]?Nay, you might have fallen into the same land in which your habitation now is, and yet have had no advantage by it as to salvation, if He that chose the bounds of your habitation had not also graciously ?determined the times? for you (Acts 17.26). –John Flavel, The Mystery of Providence, 48-50
What "spiritual mercies and advantages" we enjoy here in this nation! We can meet together without fear for preaching and teaching, worship and fellowship. We can own church buildings and Bibles and spiritual books. We can preach the gospel on television, radio and podcasts. We can hold conferences and retreats. We can openly proclaim Jesus Christ without fear of being arrested and tortured.In North Korea, believers are imprisoned in packing crates for their faith. I once heard about one group of persecuted Christians that met for years in the woods on Sunday morning, with only one chapter from Proverbs to nourish them. I have numerous Bibles in my home and office, and even more numerous books, commentaries, and teachings on CD. I have a Bible program in my computer that contains many Bibles and hundreds of other resources. We have access to the works of the greatest Christians who ever lived.
Let us praise our Lord Jesus for the spiritual mercies and advantages his providence has provided for us in this nation!

Born in the USA
In 1984, Bruce Springsteen penned his anthem, "Born in the USA". The same year Lee Greenwood recorded "God Bless the USA" singing,
? If tomorrow all the things were gone I?d worked for all my life,
And I had to start again with just my children and my wife.
I?d thank my lucky stars to be living here today,
?Cause the flag still stands for freedom and they can?t take that away.
Sorry, Lee, it's not lucky stars we should thank but you're right about the gratitude part.
John Flavel reminds us of God's providence in selecting the land of our birth:
?Ah friends! Can you think it an indifferent thing into what part of the world the womb of nature has cast you out?…This performance of Providence for you very much concerns your present comfort in this world?How poor, miserable, and unprovided with earthly comfort and accommodations are many millions of the inhabitants of this world! What mercies do you enjoy in respect of the amenity, fertility, temperature, and civility of the place of your habitation?…You are here provided with necessary and comfortable accommodations for your bodies, that a great part of the world are unacquainted with.? — John Flavel, The Mystery of Providence, 47
I have had the privilege of traveling to a couple very poor nations, and every time I go, I thank God for his mercies to me that I was born in the United States. Do you ever take time to think about the blessings God has heaped upon you simply by virtue of the country you were born in? What an abundance of food God has blessed us with in this country. The chip aisle in the supermarket has so many varieties, I get anxious trying to select a bag.
How about our medical facilities and technology? In some countries, many don't even have access to Tylenol. After my wife Kristi visited Uganda, she told me of a young man who'd had a minor cut that became severely infected because he had no bandaids or antibiotic ointment. He lost his leg. In Uganda, Kristi saw people wait for days to see a doctor; I sigh if I have to wait 30 minutes.
Next time you have to slow down because of highway repairs, thank God for the incredible infrastructure he's blessed us with. The streets in my neighborhood would be considered superhighways in some nations.
Let us thank God for electricity. For hot showers in the morning. That we can wash our clothes in machines and not in the local river. For automobiles. In some countries, you'd be the richest man in the village if you owned a bicycle. We have so many comforts and pleasures. We live in beautiful homes in safe neighborhoods. What mercies we enjoy! Lord Jesus, thank you for your providence that we were born in this nation.
Trace the Threads
??it has been the pious and constant practice of the saints in all generations to preserve the memory of the more famous and remarkable providences that have befallen them in their times as a precious treasure. ?If thou be a Christian indeed, I know thou hast, if not in thy book, yet certainly in thy heart, a great many precious favours upon record; the very remembrance and rehearsal of them is sweet; how much more sweet was the actual enjoyment??

- "Come on, it's not that bad."
- "You don't hear me complaining."
- "I had a headache once that probably felt similar to this."

When she's leaving the hospital:
- "Wow, you still look sort of pregnant."
- "You know that tonight is Monday Night Football, right?"

Aaron Sorkin gave us a counter-programmed President, and now he's trying to imagine what the world of the press should have looked like over the past two years. Perhaps most known for creating TV shows like The West Wing and Sports Night, he's also an Oscar winner who's written 6 excellent films, starting with A Few Good Men. His resume is one thing, but even it can't really encapsulate why he's an important figure in filmmaking. That's more ephemeral, the kind of thing that comes with making a distinctive name for yourself through a particular style. There's no denying that Sorkin's writing can be picked out of a line up, and that's one of the major reasons he's become such an intractable part of popular culture even while rising above its lower regions. Here's a bit of free film school (for fans and filmmakers alike) from a man who can handle the truth.
6 Filmmaking Tips From Nora Ephron
Features By Scott Beggs on June 27, 2012 | Be the First To CommentNora Ephron's film career – despite three Oscar nominations and credit with re-inventing an entire genre – somehow doesn't get the legendary status that it probably deserves. She only wrote and/or directed a few more than a dozen movies, but in those films she delivered iconic characters that achieved a sense of honesty that few filmmakers are even brave enough to approach. She fought myopic views about her sex to build fame as a journalist, an essayist, a novelist, a screenwriter and a director. She got started in screenwriting because everyone else was writing scripts, her film school was being on set with Mike Nichols, and her work made a huge impact on popular culture and faked orgasms. So here it is, a bit of free film school (for fans and filmmakers alike) from a comedy genius.
How To Film Someone Killing Himself with Daniel Stamm
Features By Scott Beggs on June 21, 2012 | Comments (1)Daniel Stamm's A Necessary Death is like a shot of whiskey that's easy to pour but not easy to drink. His directorial debut (which won him the job for The Last Exorcism) follows a film student making a documentary about a man preparing for, and going through with, his suicide. It's difficult territory to be certain, but it's handled with grace, humor, and more than a few touching moments which make the horror of the inevitable and the twisting emotions growing in the film crew that much harder to handle. It's an excellent movie, and Stamm joins us to delve deeper into its creation (and audience's reactions). Download Episode #138
Of the directors we've covered in this feature, Ridley Scott might be the most forward. He's brash an unorthodox, and when speaks, you get the sense that he threw his filter in the trash years ago. At this point, brass buttons are well-deserved. Alien, Blade Runner, Black Rain, Thelma & Louise, Gladiator, Kingdom of Heaven, Black Hawk Down, and a popcorn bucket-full more prove the man's vision as a storyteller. A movie fan from a young age, Scott first found success as a commercial director. His first flick, The Duelists, was hailed at Cannes but made it to few screens beyond. It was a science fiction journey featuring a seven-member crew woken from stasis to explore a strange signal that made him a major name, and this weekend he dives back into that world with Prometheus. So here's a bit of free film school (for fans and filmmakers alike) from a bloke from South Shields.
6 Filmmaking Tips From Wes Anderson
Features By Scott Beggs on May 30, 2012 | Be the First To CommentOh, Wes Anderson. Some have already gotten to see his latest film, Moonrise Kingdom, and even more will see it as it opens wider this weekend. Without seeing his name on the title cards, it's easy to spot as one of his projects. The auteur has developed a look and feel all his own – usually constructed by primary colors, detailed set design, Britpop, and Bill Murray. This Texan who often lives in France is idiosyncratic in his storytelling, but he's also unafraid to put his personal demons onto the screen (in as twee a way as possible). From Bottle Rocket to Rushmore to Fantastic Mr. Fox, his work is usually ridiculously rich and infinitely quotable. So here is a bit of free film school (for fans and filmmakers alike) from the son of an advertiser and an archeologist.
There are a lot of stories about colleagues and reporters asking Joel and Ethan Coen questions only to get the same exact answer from both (or to get one finishing the other's sentence), so it seems at least plausible that they'd both agree on all these tips – no matter which brother they came from. Joel Coen got his start as an assistant editor on Fear No Evil and The Evil Dead. He and his brother then partnered for their first movie without the word "evil" in the title, Blood Simple., which rightly launched them to prominence where they'd go on to craft Raising Arizona, The Big Lebowski, countless other modern classics and a trophy case for all their awards. All of this fulfilled a childhood dream of making movies that started with a Super 8 camera and a hobby of remaking what they saw on television. So here's a bit of free film school (for fans and filmmakers alike) from two young masters who think exactly alike.
Ken Burns Explains His Storytelling Philosophy of Acceptable Manipulation [Video]
Features By Scott Beggs on May 18, 2012 | Be the First To CommentOne plus one equals three. It's a fascinating idea in its simplicity and in its wrongness, but it's the key to Ken Burns's work. According to the iconic documentary filmmaker (and sometimes Community homage subject), that's the math that adds up to his storytelling success. The director is now the subject of a short documentary (because art has a sense of humor) from Sarah Klein and Tom Mason called Ken Burns: On Story (via The Atlantic). In it, they ask the central question of storytelling's nature, and he answers with a little fuzzy math. Check it out for yourself:
With a giant pile of movies to his name, Steven Spielberg has the considerable honor of being the only filmmaker who makes entertainment that's massively popular, critically acclaimed and decade-enduring. It's an illusive triumvirate. His fundamental success is owed to a lot of things, but principle among them is his childhood sense of wonder and magic – a sense he's never let go of. His childhood was also spent with a camera in hand. From Jaws to Close Encounters of the Third Kind to Indiana Jones to The Color Purple and Empire of the Sun and Jurassic Park and Amistad and Schindler's List and Munich and, and, and…he's been a prolific, skilled presence in the filmmaking world for going on 5 decades, and he's done so by spanning genres, tones, and subjects. So here's a bit of free film school (for fans and filmmakers alike) from a little kid who hid under his bed after watching Bambi.
6 Filmmaking Tips From Billy Wilder
Features By Scott Beggs on May 9, 2012 | Be the First To CommentThere are few directors that had a career like Billy Wilder's. There are probably none that reached his level of skill and notability while staying as diverse as a storyteller. The man did drama and comedy with equal acuity, but his dominance of filmmaking almost didn't happen. Born in what is now present-day Poland, Wilder left for Paris during the initial rise of the Nazi party in Germany and soon left for the States. He got out early, yes, but it's difficult to think about the magic he's delivered without being reminded that but for a few years he may have found himself a victim of the fear-mongering and murder that befell European Jews at the height of Hitler. Fortunately, he did get out and did go on to craft some of the best scripts and movies of the era (and, you know, of all time). His breakout was writing the hilarious Best Picture nominee Ninotchka; success he translated into a fruitful writing/directing career which produced a truckload of notable classics like Double Indemnity, A Foreign Affair, Lost Weekend, Sunset Blvd., Stalag 17, Some Like It Hot, The Seven Year Itch, The Apartment, Witness for the Prosecution, Sabrina and more. The man was seriously prolific. With six Oscars and a ridiculous list of incredible films under his belt, he's a perfect director to take a few tips from. So here it is, a bit of free film school (for filmmakers and fans alike) from a legend.
The 10 Greatest Movies of All Time (According to the Internet)
Features By Scott Beggs on May 8, 2012 | Comments (63)This post is probably not what you think. There are no LOLCats, no Rage Comic stick men bellowing about the superiority of The Dark Knight and Inception. It's not really a love letter to modernity. But it's also not Sight & Sound's decennial Top Ten List. That prestigious publication has done great work since even before polling critics in 1952 to name the best movies of all time. They've recreated the experiment every ten years since (with filmmakers included in 1992), and their 2012 list is due out soon. However, there is certainly overlap. The FSR poll includes only 37 critics (and 4 filmmakers), but we're young and have moxy, and none of us were even asked by Sight & Sound for our considerable opinion. That's what's fascinating here. The films nominated by those invited by S&S have the air of critical and social importance to them. They are, almost all, serious works done by serious filmmakers attempting to make serious statements. This list, by contrast, is the temperature of the online movie community in regards to what movies are the "greatest." The results might be what you expect. But probably not.
In his review of Mean Streets, Roger Ebert claimed that Martin Scorsese had the potential to become the American Fellini in ten years. It probably didn't really take that long. Scorsese is a living library of film, but he isn't a dusty repository of knowledge. He's a vibrant, imaginative creator who might know more about movies than anyone else on the planet, and that makes him uniquely qualified to be both prolific and proficient. Over the course of his career, he's created indelible works bursting with anger, violence, fragility, care, and wonder. Never content to stick with one story mode, he's run the gamut of styles and substance. So here's a free bit of film school (for filmmakers and fans alike) from our American Fellini.
Court Rules that Documentary Filmmaking is More Than Just A Hobby
Movie News By Scott Beggs on April 27, 2012 | Be the First To CommentApparently it's okay to run a business and have fun and express passion doing it. You don't have to hate every waking second of what you're doing to make a living – even if you're not making a profit. We reported last summer on the dangerous prospect of a lawsuit against Smile 'Til It Hurts: The Up With People Story director Lee Storey which attempt to prove that documentaries are for education and not entertainment. That distinction would change their IRS tax status and mean that documentary filmmakers who never get their work distribution or make money (read: many of them) would not be able to write off the production costs as a deduction. All of that sounds ridiculous (and way too dry and boring to start thinking about) but the implications were clear: documentary filmmaking would be severely injured by the ruling. Fortunately, it's time to celebrate because Variety is reporting that the IRS just lost their lawsuit against Storey. Our long national nightmare is finally over.
Movie Icon of the Month: A Tribute to Stanley Donen
Features By Scott Beggs on April 26, 2012 | Be the First To CommentFrom On the Town to Royal Wedding to Singin' in the Rain, Stanley Donen revolutionized movie musicals by making them truly cinematic. Instead of being anchored to the theater stage, he tossed those anchors away and set his ambitious sights on filming a musical in the largest city in the country (impossible!), using camera work to aid the story (crazy!) and challenging old ideas. That, and the fact that he just turned 88 this month, make him our Movie Icon of April. Let's celebrate his work together. Download Episode #131
6 Filmmaking Tips From Stanley Kubrick
Features By Scott Beggs on April 25, 2012 | Be the First To CommentStanley Kubrick has appeared in the credits for at least 17 films since his death in 1999. How is that possible? There's a ton of people thanking him and making movies about him. His influence stretches even beyond his impressive body of work. The infamous control freak has taken us to the Overlook Hotel, to a War Room where there's no fighting, on an odyssey in space and beyond. He's an indelible part of the film conversation who had a rare gift for challenging conventions while embracing components of traditional commercial filmmaking. Last Friday's Short Film of the Day was a hint at which director this column would take on next, so here it is: a free bit of film school (for fans and filmmakers alike) from a chaotic mind with a gorgeous eye. Or, as Kirk Douglas put it, "a talented shit."
Darren Bousman Battles Depression with a 'Carnival'
Features By Scott Beggs on April 25, 2012 | Comments (1)Calling in from a dirty van somewhere in the American south, Darren Bousman speaks with the kind of quiet calm that has seen the heights of horror success and the self-made sweat of passion projects being wrung out in the system. It's half electricity, half exhaustion. His latest flick 11-11-11 hit DVD yesterday, and watching the film, it's easy to climb inside the writer/director's own struggles with faith and depression. He's a remarkably open filmmaker, sharing his personal feelings (no matter how dark) with his fans, never sparing the emotional details. Fortunately, it's that incredibly candid spirit that comes alive in this conversation. From the bloodiness of the Bible to why 11-11-11 wasn't his finest hour to the thrills of taking his Devil's Carnival on the road, Bousman is as blunt as they come. Download This Interview
Perfectionist. Demanding. Hard to work with. David Fincher is a man who hates his own brand but is secure in his own reputation. Of course, it's a little bit easy when that reputation includes stunning movies and a mind that can operate at an auteur speed in the high-occupancy Hollywood studio lane. He's a (mostly) accessibly genius, which is rare and which means that we as fans and filmmakers can learn a lot from him. Fortunately, he's as free with his advice as he is with his nightmarish visions. Here's a bit of free film school from a living legend.
Christopher Nolan Speaks Out on Essential Need for 35mm and Limits of 3D
Features By Scott Beggs on April 13, 2012 | Comments (2)This is the fight of the generation. The proliferation of technology, the cost and the spread of "democratic filmmaking" have propelled digital to the forefront, threatening to end 35mm as a platform. As more theaters convert wholly to digital projection and "projectionists" only understand how to press a button to make the movie work, the 100-year-old medium of preference is losing out. Which is why Christopher Nolan gathered the most prominent filmmakers together to watch 6 minutes of The Dark Knight Rises. As Gendy Alimurung writes in an absolute must-see article in LA Weekly evocatively titled, "Movie Studios Are Forcing Hollywood to Abandon 35mm Film. But the Consequences of Going Digital are Vast, and Troubling," Edgar Wright, Michael Bay, Bryan Singer and a host of other notable names were brought in for the "ulterior motive" of Nolan's plea to save 35mm. Now, he's fighting with ink. In the latest edition of the DGA Quarterly, the master filmmaker has some lofty words for 35mm and a strong dismissal of change for change's sake.
Alfred Hitchcock was born in the 19th century but gave birth in the 20th century to the age of modern filmmaking. Famous for his wit, inventive appreciation of the macabre, and a firm belief that suspense involves bringing a victim out from the shadows into the light he crafted the kinds of movies that made you care about characters even while reaching for your cholesterol medication. He also has a lot to teach. To fellow filmmakers and fans alike. Which is why we've chosen him as the first teacher in a new series of weekly articles where master movie-makers share their insights. Throughout his life, Hitchcock was candid about his methods and philosophies (amongst other things he flung around freely). Here's a bit of free film school from a true visionary.
Can Song Lyrics Ruin a Scary Movie Moment?
Aural Fixation By Allison Loring on March 29, 2012 | Be the First To CommentSong placement plays a very important role in a film – a song can make you feel happy, sad, nostalgic or make you laugh. Scores can certainly do the same thing, but sometimes a well-placed song works better than any composed piece could. However this tact rarely applies to horror films, especially when leading up to a climatic moment or a jump scare. You can usually sense when these moments are coming – the score becomes ominous, (or even drops out completely) causing your heart beat to quicken as you sense something terrifying is about to be revealed. These moments are almost always driven by score and rarely (if ever) feature a lyric-filled song. And this choice makes sense since lyrics would probably distract from the suspense of the moment instead of drawing it out and, in turn, drawing you into the horror. For horror films, songs with vocals are usually left for party scenes or if a character on screen happens to be listening to the radio, but they are rarely placed within the scene to underscore it. It raises a great question: can a pop or rock song fit into these pivotal moments and have the same effect? Or is this strictly a score or silence choice? I spoke with composer Kurt Oldman who is well-versed in the world of horror film scoring having lent his style to the creepy scores for Killer Holiday, Babysitter Wanted and Neighbor to get his perspective on this idea, how he approaches scoring horror films […]
What We Can Learn From The Curious Boy Who Just Went Deeper Than Any Person on Earth Has Before
Features By Scott Beggs on March 28, 2012 | Be the First To CommentIn 1989, James Cameron explored the fictional deep in The Abyss, and when he dove nearly 7 miles into the Mariana Trench, he unfortunately didn't meet any gooey alien-like beings, but he did beat a solo dive record and figuratively witnessed a different world inside our own. But hasn't that always been the job of a good storyteller? To witness and share other worlds within our own? Cameron is a visionary storyteller, and we have a lot to learn from him even as we enjoy his movies. Here is his TED Talk from 2010 where he discusses his unreal worlds and his limitless curiosity – something that seems incredibly relevant right now.

Oct. 4 (Bloomberg) -- Red Hat Inc., a provider of open source software and services, agreed to acquire closely held Gluster Inc. for about $136 million in cash to expand in Internet-based computing.
Red Hat's third-quarter and full-year fiscal 2012 earnings forecast aren't changed by the deal, the Raleigh, North Carolina-based company said in a statement today. Integrating Gluster may make Red Hat's fiscal 2013 operating margin excluding some items 150 basis points lower than fiscal 2012.
Gluster gives Red Hat an opportunity to expand a $4 billion market for storage of so-called unstructured data such as e- mails and social media postings. The deal also helps Red Hat, the largest seller of Linux software, offer more solutions to customers who want to access data over the Internet using cloud computing.
"This is an exciting new area of potential growth for Red Hat and one in which we intend to invest aggressively," said Charlie Peters, Red Hat's chief financial officer, in the statement.
Red Hat fell $1.87, or 4.6 percent, to $38.59 at 9:40 a.m. on the New York Stock Exchange. The stock had dropped 11 percent this year before today.
The acquisition is expected to close this month, the companies said in the statement.

Spring Classics 2014: How the seven races were won
The arrival of spring across Europe heralds the start of the annual series of tough and lengthy one-day "Classics" - races which pit riders against uneven roads and unpredictable weather.
From a near-300km race across northern Italy, to the mud and cobbles of northern France and the oldest of all in Belgium, the seven Spring Classics are among the hardest races a professional cyclist will face.
Here's how the 2014 Classics were won.
Milan-San Remo - Sunday, 23 March
Norway's Alexander Kristoff won a sprint finish ahead of Swiss Fabian Cancellara and Britain's Ben Swift to claim the biggest victory of his career.
"It's amazing," said Swift. "I only found out I was doing San Remo two weeks ago. I felt good all day. It's just a shame that I got a bit boxed in in the sprint."
Mark Cavendish sprinted to victory in the 2009 race but he could not repeat the achievement as he just came up short in the final metres, crossing the line in fifth place.
Gent-Wevelgem - Sunday, 30 March
Germany's John Degenkolb outpaced Frenchman Arnaud Demare and defending champion Peter Sagan in a bunch sprint after a breakaway group was caught within the final kilometre.
Victory at Gent-Wevelgem, the first of the spring "cobbled classics", is the biggest one-day win in Degenkolb's career to date.
Team Sky's British rider Geraint Thomas, who came third as Sagan won the E3 Harelbeke two days earlier, crashed in the final stages and placed 112th.
Tour of Flanders - Sunday, 6 April
Switzerland's Fabian Cancellara successfully defended his title to become just the sixth man to win three Tour of Flanders races.
The 33-year-old outwitted three Belgians in a sprint for the line after initially making his move on the third and final ascent of the cobbled Oude Kwaremont with 17km remaining.
Team Sky's Geraint Thomas, who was in touch for much of the race, could not follow Cancellara's move but was the first British rider to finish, in eighth.
Paris-Roubaix - Sunday, 13 April
Niki Terpstra won the prestigious Paris-Roubaix one-day race as British duo Geraint Thomas and Bradley Wiggins finished in a group 20 seconds adrift.
Dutchman Terpstra broke clear in the last 10km of the 257km race in northern France which featured 28 cobbled sections and finished in an outdoors velodrome.
Team Sky's Thomas and Wiggins finished seventh and ninth respectively after being beaten in the sprint finish for the podium places by German John Degenkolb and three-time winner Fabian Cancellara.
Amstel Gold - Sunday, 20 April
Philippe Gilbert broke clear on the final climb of the day to claim his third Amstel Gold victory.
The Belgian rider finished ahead of countryman Jelle Vanendert after a decisive burst of pace on the race's fourth ascent of the Cauberg - a 1200m climb with a maximum gradient of 12%.
Australia's Simon Gerrans was third.
La Fleche Wallonne - Wednesday, 23 April
Spaniard Alejandro Valverde timed his attack to perfection on the gruelling Mur de Huy to win the Belgian race for the second time.
The Movistar team leader passed Ireland's Dan Martin and Pole Michal Kwiatkowski in the final 200 metres of the 199.5km Belgian Spring Classic.
Britain's Ben Swift and Josh Edmondson, and Pete Kennaugh of the Isle of man - all with team Sky - did not finish.
Liege-Bastogne-Liege - Sunday, 27 April
Simon Gerrans became Australia's first Liege-Bastogne-Liege winner with a sprint finish in the final Spring Classic of 2014.
The 33-year-old Orica rider outsprinted Alejandro Valverde and Michal Kwiatkowski to clinch the 100th edition of the one-day race.
"It's an incredible victory, it's a dream come true," said Gerrans, who won Milan-San Remo in 2012.
