Subject Terms: health care facilities, hospitalization, hospitals, illness, medical care, medical evaluation, medical procedures, medical records, patients, payment methods, treatment
Geographic Coverage: United States
Time Period:
- 2002
Date of Collection:
- 2002
Universe: Patient discharges from nonfederal short-stay hospitals located in the 50 states and the District of Columbia.
Data Types: administrative records data
Data Collection Notes:
(1) Per agreement with NCHS, ICPSR distributes the data file and technical documentation in this collection in their original form as prepared by NCHS. (2) The codebook is provided as a Portable Document Format (PDF) file. The PDF file format was developed by Adobe Systems Incorporated and can be accessed using PDF reader software, such as the Adobe Acrobat Reader. Information on how to obtain a copy of the Acrobat Reader is provided on the ICPSR Web site.
Sample: The redesigned (as of 1988) NHDS sample includes with certainty all hospitals with 1,000 or more beds or 40,000 or more discharges annually. The remaining sample of hospitals is based on a stratified three-stage design. The first stage consists of selection of 112 primary sampling units (PSUs) that comprise a probability subsample of PSUs used in the 1985-1994 National Health Interview Surveys. The second stage consists of selection of noncertainty hospitals from the sample PSUs. At the third stage, a sample of discharges was selected by a systematic random sampling technique. For 2002, the sample consisted of 504 hospitals. Of these, 30 were found to be ineligible. Of the 474 eligible hospitals, 445 hospitals responded to the survey.

Edwin Jackson allowed two runs over seven strong innings.
Game in a nutshell: What was shaping up to be another low-scoring, nailbiter instead turned crazy in the ninth inning. Adam LaRoche put the Nationals up 4-3 with what looked like the game-winning, two-run homer off Joel Hanrahan. But Henry Rodriguez blew the save himself in the bottom of the ninth, uncorking two wild pitches and then serving up a two-run, walk-off homer to Rod Barajas on a first-pitch fastball at the letters. Just like that, the Nationals suffered a crushing defeat just when it appeared they would pull off a stunning, dramatic victory.
Hitting highlight: How important has LaRoche been to the Nationals this season? He's meant everything to them, and his return to the lineup tonight nearly produced a come-from-behind win. The veteran first baseman, who missed four games with a sore oblique muscle, singled in the fourth, drew a walk in the sixth and then provided theRead more »

It's time to be honest: Henry Rodriguez is a mental defective.From time to time he does freakish things pitching, but he is a mental defective nonetheless.Get rid of him. We cannot have this head case in our bullpen in the playoffs.
- Kevin Rusch - May 9, 2012 at 1:54 AM
I disagree. OK, he shanked two curveballs, but the homer (which was the only difference) was 96 mph on the corner. What are you gonna do?
- hiramhover - May 9, 2012 at 1:56 AM
Henry has value, but I don't think it's in these high leverage situations–his control issues simply aren't resolved. That's 6 WP this season, in 12 2/3 IP.
- Kenz aFan - May 9, 2012 at 2:00 AM
Comparing Adam LaRoche to Prince Fielder is comparing apples and oranges. Fielder is hitting in new ball parks and against a whole new set of pitchers. The only time you will be able to fairly compare the two will be as the season comes to a close. Doing so now is just plain silly.
- FS=Faraz Shaikh - May 9, 2012 at 2:02 AM
When I left with Nats leading 4-3 mid-9th, I had this sinking feeling that someone will blow this lead and that's exactly what happened. Heartbreaking loss but we gotta move on.

- ehay2k - May 9, 2012 at 2:04 AM
Tough loss. Really should have pulled that one out. First Clip, then Henry gave up runs. My issue with Henry is that he still gets in trouble overthrowing pitches,especially his breaking balls. I would really like to know what pitches Ramos was calling that Henry was shaking off. Was Wilson calling for breaking balls and Henry wasn't feeling them? I wonder if Mark Z. can get some insight into that.
- rmoore446 - May 9, 2012 at 2:06 AM
A mental defective? A head case? What odd comments. At least he got beat throwing his best pitch. He does have some issues to work on but most relievers do. Frankly with Lidge and Storen out, we need him
- natsfan1a - May 9, 2012 at 2:06 AM
Agree re. the tough loss, but tomorrow is another day. Good to see LaRoche and Zimm back on the field, and FP and Bob back in the booth.Also, Henry has certainly had his problems with control and poise but "mental defective"? Really?
- Unknown - May 9, 2012 at 2:08 AM
Umm…"How important has LaRoche been to the Nationals this season? He's meant everything to them, and his return to the lineup tonight was crucial to this come-from-behind win." I think you forgot to change that sentence, Mark!
- Manassas Nats' Fan - May 9, 2012 at 2:09 AM
What you going to is blow a fast ball by Prestley who couldn't hit the first two, not a curve ball he dinks into left center. Strike him out it is three up three down. I said that as he was pitching not after the fact. The homer didn't piss me off as much as trhowing the curve to a guy who couldn't hit the fast ball.
- sjb - May 9, 2012 at 2:11 AM
Well, as I see it, HR is certainly not a'mental defective' but I wouldn't let him off as easy as Kevin did–FP pointed out that because of the wild pitches and there being a man on third, Barajas knew HR couldn't throw a curve, and could sit on the fastball. Now if you decide that HR is no longer the closer (and I'd be very surprised if that's the decision right away) who do you turn to? Mattheus? Burnett? Do you maybe put Wang back in the rotation and ask Detweiler to close? What is the plan B til Storen comes back?
- Tcostant - May 9, 2012 at 2:12 AM
I miss u Drew Storen!
- hiramhover - May 9, 2012 at 2:12 AM
Manassas That was a 98-MPH FB that Pressley hit, at least accdg to mlb.com.
- Dave - May 9, 2012 at 2:14 AM
from the other thread.At what point do we start to have 2 pitchers warming in the pen in a save situation. If Henry does not have it in the pen don't send him out there.Maybe it is as simple as Henry is a nervous pervis. You could tell he was feeling it after his deep breath after the base hit. The more we see him in these pressure situations the more we find out he is a 7th inning 3-4 run lead type guy."Frickin Oh-No"
- sjm308 - May 9, 2012 at 2:14 AM
Just ouch!
- mick - May 9, 2012 at 2:16 AM
maybe middle relief for HRod and I am being nice. I said 2 weeks ago when he lost one the Dodger games, that he has done NOTHING since last season to improve his approach when he comes into the game. This clown lost 3 game last season on the same STUPID pitches. The season is not even 30 games old and already this LOSER has lost 3 games for this team. What makes this loss so much worse tonight is that Mccatty and Davey did NOTHING after HRod's first STUPID sinking curve on an 0-2 count to a batter who had a deer in the head light looks. Also, is Ramos a an idiot as well to even call such a pitch
- mick - May 9, 2012 at 2:17 AM
HRod is not mentally defective, he is simply a MORON

I've said it before–the best reliever we have right now is Stammen. He's a bulldog. Ice water in those veins. He can handle the pressure and should be given the shot to close. Clippard should stay for the 8th, and we'll just wait for Storen to come back. Rodriguez should go back to 6th or 7th inning appearances.
- mick - May 9, 2012 at 2:19 AM
There were no fans in the park, the town is booing and down on the Pirates, and this happens.
- jeffwx - May 9, 2012 at 2:19 AM
Management keeps to their decisions long after they may have proven to be the correct one. Unfortunately, they will be the last to pull Espi from 2nd, Nady from the lineup and HROD from the closer role. It takes time to overcome denial. Oh and let's not give up on Bernadina either. Past performance is no indicator of future success ;(Signed Grumpy
- hiramhover - May 9, 2012 at 2:19 AM
mickYou need to go a little heavier on the bourbon in your bourbon-maalox cocktail, and lay off the name-calling.

D'Gourds i agree, it makes sense to everyone except Davey
- natsfan1a - May 9, 2012 at 2:21 AM
I'd say more like less bourbon, but that's just me. I do agree re. the name-calling, even if it is the interwebz.
- JaneB - May 9, 2012 at 2:28 AM
Why don't we try Clipp or Craig in that spot instead of Henry? This one stings.
- jeffwx - May 9, 2012 at 2:28 AM
Sounds better:Management keeps to their decisions long after they have been proven wrong.Denial is a difficult thought to be dislodged.eg: Titanic can't be sunk, Noone can escape from Alcatraz, HROD usually has good command of his curveball.
- Larry Rutledge - May 9, 2012 at 2:31 AM
For me watching a game on TV (baseball, basketball) is not as relaxing as being there in person. Watching a losing game on TV is pure torture. Teams in either baseball or basketball don't play as well on the road as they do at home so the possibility of being tortured is so much higher. Last Wednesday I was able to see Desmond's walk off home run coming right at me. That was exciting and was just a great night. I have to be honest I didn't feel as good then as I feel bad now. I think that it is because there is no second guessing when my team wins. It all seems like it was meant to be. A loss seems like something that could have been done wasn't done. It is so hard to be a fan at times.
- jeffwx - May 9, 2012 at 2:31 AM
JaneB..that's like asking why don't we stop hitting our head against the wall.Insanity is doing the same thing over and over, expecting different results.
- mick - May 9, 2012 at 2:32 AM
hiramhover, I actually have toned it down and I'm being nice to Hrod. if your OK with tonight, forget the game winning HR at the end, but with the clear cluelessness of HRod, Ramos and the coaches then I have nothing else to say. I am not OK with it and it is a serious red flag.
- Manassas Nats' Fan - May 9, 2012 at 2:32 AM
Sure looked a lot slower on MASN. Of course the person I was really mad long before that was Desi (I have given being mad at ESPI, he obviously needs to go down and get striaght) as he doesn't swing at strike one over the palte and wings at many strike 2's and 3's very few over the plate.)) Desi fileds the ball that rolls through his legs the worse that happens is a tie 4-4 at this point. We do not hit well enough that the palyers can afford to make errors. Just can't.Also Ejax gets two hits, what does Desi do frounds into double plays and on at least one it was a 2-0 count. Arg.As my wife says she wishes the player would get as angry about a loss as I do. Then again she says I hate losing at any game I play, and work on my game to get better. Really good at scrabble, and uno.I would be a terrible baseball player, not becuasse I can't see well enough, and too slow, but I could tolderate teammates blowing games. And I would be in 7th heaven after a win.
- jeffwx - May 9, 2012 at 2:35 AM
Larry…at least when I'm at the park, i can take comfort with my fellow comrades. I agree that watching a loss like tonight alone can only lead to disquieting feelings of quiet desperation.
- Unknown - May 9, 2012 at 2:35 AM
I hate walk-off losses, but when you're on the road and have to nurse a pulled-from-the-hat 1-run lead, these can happen. HRod is 6 for 8 in save situations, both blown ones on the road. It's a tough loss, but only 1 game. However, losses to teams you should beat in games you should win can come back to haunt you if you aspire to the play-offs. Chalk this one up to the painful learning process all teams go through when they are moving from also-ran to contender. Unfortunately, it's gonna be this way all year long. Hopefully, as the season goes on, the team can learn from and draw strength from overcoming these heartbreaking losses.Remember – in baseball momentum is only as good as tomorrow's starting pitcher!
- mick - May 9, 2012 at 2:35 AM
here is the difference with the Joel Ward and HRod, I feel for Joel Ward, without him the Caps are not even playing in this series, he also took responsibility on a play that happen so fast that he rarely makes mistake like that in crucial times. I feel nothing of the sort for Hrod who makes the same stupid pitches every 3 games and every season and has never once said I lost the game for my team. as i said, i am being nice to HRod
- mick - May 9, 2012 at 2:36 AM
is there a problem with Lombo playing 2b? i mean why not?
- Manassas Nats' Fan - May 9, 2012 at 2:38 AM
Just watch the two hits tthe real problem is he missed the target each time pretty bad and left them hanging up. Wonder what his break down between home and away is, because he pitches a lot better at home.
- Manassas Nats' Fan - May 9, 2012 at 2:41 AM
I have given up on Davey benching Espinosa. He allows strike one to go over the plate (lots of you like that I do not especially with a batter who striking out a lot). then swings at strike 2 and 3 too often not coming even close to contact, because the pitch is no where near the plate). GO to Syracuse and learn where the strike zone is again. He is purely guessing now. Way too many strike outs for a non power hitter. We cannot afford the outs.
- jeffwx - May 9, 2012 at 2:42 AM
More decisions that we'll stick with no matter what the outcome. Desi is a leadoff hitter.Desi is a good hitter, but not a leadoff hitter. Leadoff guys are less aggressive, trying to get on base however they can thru a walk, single, whatever. The goal to get on base, keep the rally going so your big bats (eg: Harper, Zimmerman, LaRoche) get the chance to drive you in.Desi's agressiveness is good but 2 double plays and 1 K are better served after your big bats get a chance (eg: 6th)
- Manassas Nats' Fan - May 9, 2012 at 2:43 AM
One last thought.I wish Carajas was like Espi and let the first ptich go. No he saw a good strike and he swung. That is what I call hitting.I wished they had brought Stammen in to pitch to Barajas, I do not trust HRod on the road.
- Tcostant - May 9, 2012 at 2:48 AM
I think Stammen could close too. Good idea.
- Manassas Nats' Fan - May 9, 2012 at 2:49 AM
Lead Lombo off and move Desi to 5th
- SCNatsFan - May 9, 2012 at 2:52 AM
As stated above, any good hitter would be sitting on the fastball knowing Henry couldn't just keep bouncing his breaking ball. At this level even the worst hitters can catch up to a fastball when they know it is coming.I was really surprised that Clip didn't get the 9th inning role, but lets be serious, he wouldn't be batting 100% either. Meither would Drew. Sometimes your closer just blows it and its always a tough loss when that happens.As for Espi, well, I've been critical of him since spring training and thought we handed him a job he hadn't earned based soley on potential, not results. I see I've converted quite a few believers and there is no doubt in my mind that Davey can't keep on with blind faith. Sure its nice to know management has faith in you, but its great for the other 24 guys on the team to see that players that produce get rewarded and those that don't have to step it up. Right now it benefits no one having him in the lineup looking clueless at the plate no matter how good his defense is. Let him relearn his swing somewhere that it isn't costing the Nats 3 or 4 at bats a game.

- NatsLady - May 9, 2012 at 3:30 AM
(1) Nats are still in first place (even though ATL beat the Cubs).(2) Filly lost (after leading 4-0)(3) Fish lost.(4) Angels lost to the Twins. (I didn't know it was possible to lose to the Twins. Um, that used to be us.).Rizzo is still mad about Hamels hitting Harper and bragging about it. "He tried to pound his chest on the back of Bryce Harper," Rizzo said of Hamels. "He popped off trying to be a tough guy. Yeah, well, I'm not gonna have it. Not with my player. No way."Papelbon blew a save yesterday. He is being paid $11 million dollars not to blow saves. Henry gets $491K and, face it, he's a trainee. (I went to the pitching booth Sunday just for laughs and the machine timed my velocity at 1/4 what Henry throws.)Nats are going to lose games. Would you be happier losing them 14-3 and 10-3? Not me.
- NatsLady - May 9, 2012 at 3:31 AM
Sofa, actually, by the percentages, we still have sole possession. Check the loss column, it's not a tie.
- Scott from Burke - May 9, 2012 at 3:34 AM
not the loss column..has nothing to do with it..they could have 3 less losses..if they have 10 less wins theyre still behind..it's all about winning percentage

HRod is 6 for 8 in save situations,Yep. And he's still learning — he just turned 25 a few months ago. That's his first HR allowed this season. Growing pains, folks, growing pains. Nolan Ryan led the league in WP's at age 25, too. That's often the case with fireballers.HRod will come out stronger after some of these outings, and so he will be battle tested during the home-stretch in Sept. (Or, if he isn't, then Davey will know not to use him — which is also useful).In the meantime — patience. Or Bourbon and maalox. (I think we need a name for that drink: Bourlox?)these players get angry..they usually wait until they get in the clubhouseBut the pros are the ones that don't get too up after a win, or too down after a loss. It's a marathon, not a sprint.

Tcostant said… I think Stammen could close too. Good idea. May 08, 2012 10:48 PM \____________________________I agree. I said that after the Dodgers game. Its not all about speed. Its about stuff. Not throwing but pitching. Not being impressed by velo but being impressed by hitting your spots.

But the pros are the ones that don't get too up after a win, or too down after a loss. It's a marathon, not a sprint. i don't agree..these guys are not robots..some get more upset/happy than others…i wouldn't generalize about which ones are 'pros'…if hrod isnt upset tonight that would be more troubling than the fact he cant reach the catcher with his curveball
- A DC Wonk - May 9, 2012 at 3:41 AM
Papelbon blew a save yesterday. He is being paid $11 million dollars not to blow saves. Henry gets $491K and, face it, he's a trainee.Wise words, Natslady. Papelbon lost yesterday by giving up a 3-run HR to Jordany Valdespin — a rookie who had 6 prior MLB at bats and zero hits.
- That old-school, prestigious way of Scooter - May 9, 2012 at 3:42 AM
A DC Wonk said…(Or, if [Rodriguez] isn't [battle-tested], then Davey will know not to use him — which is also useful).Wonk, this is a point that I think we often forget. When trying young guys, some will fail. That's part of the process too. The team had to try Anderson Hernandez, and find out he didn't work, in order to get to … well, second base still remains an issue, now doesn't it. Nerts.Pass the Bourlox.

But every relief pitcher I ever heard talk about this subject says the same thing: one of the keys to being a good reliever is to "have a short memory." He'll be upset tonight, but he's got to be back on even keel tomorrow.

Uh, no. It's ALL about the loss column. You can win games that you haven't yet played, but you can't win games that you've already lost.

Y'all notice that the comments above include: (a) a criticism of Desi for swinging at the first pitch; and (b) a compliment to Carajas for swinging on the first pitch?

I think DJ or Rizzo is doing a disservice to Espinosa by not sending him to AAA. He needs calm down and AAA is the place to do it.
- Gonat - May 9, 2012 at 3:48 AM
Papelbon didn't blow the save. It was a tie game but he still blew it. Sometimes you have to give kudos to the batter. I saw Papelbon in that game. He was hitting his spots.Henry on the other hand is missing by a huge margin.

tough game for hrd..the hitter has to believe you can throw a curve..not that important if its in the zone..he has to THINK a pitch might be acurve..he CANNOT wild pitcher that runner to third..takes the curve out of his reportoire…=disaster

- NatsLady - May 9, 2012 at 3:56 AM
Scott from Burke: that last comment is correct. Should have thrown any kind of non-fastball pitch to Barajas. If not a slider, then some change-up he has in his back pocket. Everyone from here to Indiana knew he was throwing a heater. McCatty must have gone to the restroom.

- patrickhenry - May 9, 2012 at 4:01 AM
I know Davey's trying to take the long view with Espinosa, which is a great trait in a manager. But he knows a terrible at bat when he sees one, and right now Espinosa is embarrassing himself at the plate. That can't be good for his long term confidence. Davey's a smart guy. Lombardozzi is a perfect fit batting second, allowing Harper to move into his natural spot (for now) hitting third.I give the Espi experiment about one more week.
- A DC Wonk - May 9, 2012 at 4:04 AM
Leaders 18 13 .581 ½Trailers 22 16 .579 — This is correct. Percentage takes precedence. (Games behind is a shorthand way of looking at it, which is also correct _when_ both teams have played the same number of games).(and, Scott: "nutlady"? really??)

sorry dc wonk..that was an innocent typo
- whatsanattau - May 9, 2012 at 4:06 AM
Really great. Start by Ejax tonight. LaRoche is really showing clutch this year. Desi had a ba game, but has been the hero enough times this year to get a pas. HRod was never supposed to be the closer, it seems like a stretch, but I do think he is he best current option. To me the next up would be Burnett, but I have a fantasy that it will be Ejax when Wang comes back. Not an expectation, just a wish. I like him. I think he could do it and I think he might get rich doing it.

As I said Henry isn't a closer … and Davey says well not YET. That's the operative word, YET?Please see the sign in front of Nats Park: Beware Construction Zone, Hard heads NOT required, Prospects under development.Henry is still more of a setup / backup closer / situational reliever that you don't use too often. He hasn't adapted to being in situations where its all on him every night. Kind of like Joel Hanrahan or Gascanrahan as the folks here to used to call him. Drew Storen is an engineer with a singular focus. He designed and built his pitching career around becoming a major league closer … he and Mike Rizzo literally planned it out step-by-step. It wasn't like that for Henry. Have to give Davey some leeway with Henry and Espinosa … after all look at the record? And think about where Riggleman would be at this point in the season.
- NatsLady - May 9, 2012 at 4:16 AM
peric, EXCELLENT post. Correct on every point. Drew was drafted as a closer. Shudder to think of Riggleman, puhleese.
- peric - May 9, 2012 at 4:19 AM
Maybe for this blog it should be:Beware Construction Zone, Pencil heads NOT required, Prospects under development.
- Scott from Burke - May 9, 2012 at 4:22 AM
I love Davey but Riggelman is still a fairly young guy..if he gets another shot and gets some good players in 20 years he could be a manager with one or 2 world series rings..it owuldn't shock me…the flaws he had last year that were pointed out by the press were legit and they are better off now with Davey…but Riggs is a smart guy who can manage…he does need to get more resppect from his players next time..but that winning streak they had last year was a lot of fun..their % with Riggs was slightlyu higher (I believe) last year than under Johnson
- hiramhover - May 9, 2012 at 4:22 AM
DC WonkThat Nolan Ryan comparison only goes so far. In his age 25 season (1972), Ryan had 18 WP — in 284 IP, or 1 WP per every ~16 IP.Henry had 14 WP in 65-2/3 IP last year, or one every 4.75 IP. This year, he's averaging 1 WP every 2 innings. Even for a reliever (and they tend to have higher rates), that's gawdawful. Henry is a work in progress, and I think he will progress. But he's still got a long way to go if he's ever to be a premium reliever.
- Gonat - May 9, 2012 at 4:22 AM
I commend Davey for loyalty and sticking with HenRod and Espi and both have let him down.Steve said it right earlier today about the quality of Espi's hits on Friday and Saturday. Sunday he was back in a funk. Tonight he was back to lost.This isn't a Matt Stairs situation. Stairs didn't have options however Espi does. Has to be time to send him to AAA. Let him right himself. Time for Stammen to take over as closer.

DC WonkThat Nolan Ryan comparison only goes so far. In his age 25 season (1972), Ryan had 18 WP — in 284 IP, or 1 WP per every ~16 IP.Point taken. My broader point, however, is that a significant number of power pitchers often take a bit longer to develop. One of my favorite stats with Ryan is that there were six different years where he lead the league in both walks and K's. (and led the league is WP's 6 times).Randy Johnson — by age 28, after five seasons, he had a WHIP of over 1.400 (terrible) in four of those years. In hat fifth year, he led the league in BB's, K's, and HBP's (!).So, Henry, in my mind, has huge potential upside. But he's still working it out, and it'll take a while. (and it's possible he'll never work it out — but I'm optimistic with him).They don't call 'em "growing pains" for nothin' — it will be painful sometimes!
- A DC Wonk - May 9, 2012 at 4:47 AM
Umm . . . I hate to point this out . . . but Espi is close to having (or, after tonight) might have more K's than anyone in baseball this year (with the exception of Adam Dunn).

"I love Davey but Riggelman is still a fairly young guy..if he gets another shot and gets some good players in 20 years he could be a manager with one or 2 world series rings"Riggleman is in great physical shape, and acts like a kid sometimes (e.g. Caddie's), but he's pushing 60. He'll never manage in the bigs again. Thank God.
- D'Gourds - May 9, 2012 at 3:01 PM
You know, that was actually a very difficult play. He was hurrying to second to cover the steal and the ball was just scorched up the middle. If I were the official scorer, I would have given him a hit.

Re: HTFU ThursdayI still dream about the HTFU rides......the Thursday rides were the best fun I've ever had on a bike well until Antman broke me on OBR...if anyone plans to get stronger on a bike, this ride is for you !
Re: HTFU ThursdayBest way to HTFU on these rides is to try them on a single-speed!

Re: HTFU ThursdayFirst there were three starters, then there were two, and come 9.00 am it was down to one! Toyed with having a look at Bowen Mt Rd so rolled out along the Castlereagh Rd towards Richmond. Then remembered BadBlood's description having ridden up it couple of weeks back. "Pretty tough" was the simple description as I recalled. Now coming from Todd that should be taken as a warning! I think I need some psychological help for first ascents of that degree, like Jeff behind me muttering encouragement like "take your foot out the pedal and you'll feel this pump on the back of your helmet", so when I spotted the Hawksbury Lookout turn off at Agnes Banks the get out clause was duly exercised.
What a great ride turned out to be. Never been up there before. Really good steady long climb. Just sat and pushed 39/19 steadily up and around the bends. Highly recommended ride if you feel like stretching the legs a bit. Up to Springwood then the usual blast back down the highway to Penrith. You need a louder alarm clock Lou NFS FPR Jubilado Bludger
Re: HTFU ThursdayWell done Sandy, aint it just a great ride. Up there and loop back to Springwood. I'd have to agree with Todd, Bowen mountain has got hurt written all over it, last bits are up over 20%....You're so right, need BMXBandito swinging the pump for us to get up that one
Re: HTFU Thursday
He he he....yep...indeed...but not yet...am still at work right now...just about to finish up...
Re: HTFU ThursdayGreat work Sandy, a solo HTFU ride Sorry to pull out at the last minute but i just had to get some things done
Hawkesbury Lookout is easily my favourite climb, must have something to do with the hairpins. Infact, i might even go ride it tomorrow I'll be there next week Sandy, for another torture session. Todd
viva la bianchi
Re: HTFU Thursdaygood going Sandy, your definately racking up some hardcore kms, and not wimpy M7 km's too, mountain stuff.
I know whos wheel to sit behind at the next race Don
Re: HTFU Thursday
Wow Sandy that's very impressive. I've got relo's that live at Nepean Estate (off first 80kph corner after the climb passed the creek) that I've ridden to a couple of times. That hill passed the creek is bad enough, let alone the hairpins/switchback section... Other than riding to the relo's I've only done that road from Springwood to Richmond, i.e. down not up. Will have to try it one day.... yeah one day Did you come down Mitchell's Pass or Lapstone Hill? If the latter how did you go with traffic on the 55kph bend after the RAAF base? Russ GT Avalanche 1.0 | TCR Alliance 0 | Giant Bowery | BMW K1300R Two wheels good, Four wheels bad
Re: HTFU Thursday
Russ, I only ever ride UP Lapstone, never DOWN that stretch. Too fast, too close to big rigs etc IMO when there is the much safer option of Mitchell's Pass (as long as one is not trying to hang onto bmxbandito or sandman ) Sandy FPR Jubilado Bludger
Re: HTFU ThursdaySandy
You're missing the "slingshot" effect or the HUGE DRAFT from a truck 1) Slingshot: Follow BMXBandito down the hill and just where it has the last drop before it goes under the railway lines, thats where you pull out from behind him and hit 90km/hr 2) Pick the truck on the left hand sweeper where the concrete barrier is, thats where they tend to be the slowest. Your challenge is then to get behind him without the car behind getting close, and sit in behind the truck for as long as you can, obiously if you can hang on to the last drop, you'll go over 90 Not for the fainthearted but its awesome I caught one going up, roughly from the Lapstone/Leonay turnoff up to the RAAF base, made the ride up the hill a lot of fun, cant say it was easier as sustained speed was heaps faster Cheers..Pete...
Re: HTFU ThursdayPete, I think you have clearly explained why a wimp like me goes down Mitchell Pass rather than Lapstone Shouldn't speak too soon but Todd reckons he can drag my a--e up Bowen Mt Rd next week. We shall see
Sandy FPR Jubilado Bludger
Re: HTFU Thursdayhmmm sorry Sandman I'm with Sandy. 90kph on a pushy with nothing but lycra between skin and bitumen is a touch too scary for me....
I've gone down Lapstone Hill a few times, but generally do Mitchell's Pass because of the slower speeds, less traffic and NO trucks But then since my stack last year, I'm a total woose on downhill and don't go over 50 (well probably up to 55 on some occasions now). Bet you don't have any bitumen downhills at the Alice like Lapstone Russ GT Avalanche 1.0 | TCR Alliance 0 | Giant Bowery | BMW K1300R Two wheels good, Four wheels bad
Re: HTFU ThursdayHey Russ et al
We do have one mean MF hill here down from the TV tower but the thing is so locked up with razorwire, Lycra wouldn't protect my skanky ass trying to cut the wire I agree with it being nutty, not sure if I'd do it again......awwhhh stuff it yes I would, wot the hell. UP and out of the seat and pedal like a bastard I reckon.... Missing ya all Sandman
Re: HTFU ThursdayWell BadBlood you served me up a good one this morning! Thanks mate. I think just as well we did this before I go on on holiday because after two months off the bike doubt if I'd be up for that again for some time.
Bowen Mt Rd from Penrith, certainly a 75 k ride with a bit of bite to it. Maybe we could make it an optional extension onto the Saturday morning Lifecycles ride? NFS FPR Jubilado Bludger
Re: HTFU Thursday
Sandman, you're definitely a crazy dude - meant int the nicest possible way of course . I don't call those speeds with trucks in the area fun at all Sandy, you're getting addicted to this hill climbing thingy... I think you need the 2months off so we have at least a chance of staying with you! Have a good one all.

Here's the great Sandy in action just near the summit of Bowen Mountain. Todd
viva la bianchi
Re: HTFU ThursdayWith the coming of spring an old man's fancy turns to .................... climbing steep hills
So for the first time since early June it was out the M7/4 to meet up with Todd aka "Badblood" outside Lifecycles for my re aquaintance with some of the better stretches of uphill tarmac in the lower Blue Mts. Always a bit intimidating riding in the company of a young grimpeur of Todd's ability but he's a patient young man and stayed with me on all the hills with encouraging words. Was not as hard as I was expecting so must be getting a bit of strength back in the legs which suggests the training is paying some dividend. A couple of Shotz tablets in the water bottle courtesy of Bmxbandito provided additional sustenance for the ride home. Just as well since the stretch on the M7 coming home from the M4 interchange round to Richmond Rd was murder into a howling wind. Struggled to hold 25 kph on a stretch I was doing 45 kph on Monday! With 130 km and a few good hils under the belt was ready to consume a small horse when I got home. Tks for ride Todd. NFS FPR Jubilado Bludger
Re: HTFU Thursdayyour a machine Sandy
I havent riden all week. Might try and commute tomorrow but since i ripped off my nail on my pinky toe it hurts like hell to wear cycling shoes. (thanks Julies Pot plants ) I need to ride though or i am going to get totally smashed in the Worlds Masters Games Seeyou out there somewhere Don
Re: HTFU Thursday
Kind words Don but there are fast machines and there are slower machines and sadly I think I know which category I inhabit and are likely to continue to inhabit Ouch! Missing toe nails are nasty until the freshly uncovered bit starts to toughen up. Probably only hurt for about six months NFS FPR Jubilado Bludger

Oh boy I really didn't want to hear that. But I guess I hear things whether I want to hear them or not.
This came from a girl I had a couple dates with. She's not an alcoholic but she knows about us. She's very pretty and I like her a bit. I'm beginning to wonder if she's some kind of grammer teacher. But she had a point - I have been pretty darn relaxed in the way I carry myself. One is the way I talk. She keeps on correcting me whenever I say "was" and I should have said "were" or "are", and I say "them" instead of "those". Then I'm always trying to get away with saying as few words as I need to say and it is just unecessary to keep on being this way when I can do better.
She was right and I have been being lazy whether it's on line or in person. I'm also not proud to admit this, but its been a habit I use sometimes intentionally to get under someones skin. So I'm going to make an effort to clean up my ways a little. I also have room for improvement at making my house a little neater and friendlier to company.
So if I have been writing my words in a way that is getting on your nerves it might not have been on purpose. But I am sorry if I have been offensive or just plain uncaring which is probably the case. And I do owe you a prompt admission and amends - just don't make me write some silly sentence a hundred times! I guess I want to change because I know I can and maybe I need to. And it will do better for my fellows in AA if I pick up my feet a little higher instead of dragging them and acting like a clod.
You know its pretty amazing the things you find out you can change when somebody attractive starts paying attention to you (Ha! I was going to say "starts paying you mind").
This is going to take a while longer to post things in the "unnabbrieviated" way as they should be. Also, is there some kind of spellcheck to use here?

SKU:173.280 | Cobalt LEATHER
77 Review(s) | Write a Review
A girl can't leave home without her favorite lipstick, can she? We don't think so, and with this little Lipstick Case you'll never have to go anywhere without it! Made from top quality leather, our Lipstick Case holds most standard side tubes of lipstick and features a mirror inside so you can easily apply your lipstick and other makeup. A snap closure on the underside of the flap keeps it securely shut, so you can just toss it in your handbags and forget about it. This Lipstick Case is truly an accessory that no girl should be without!
Our Classico leather collection is a semi-aniline, drum dyed pebbled leather. It offers a little extra color and character, making it a good choice when you want your accessories to stand out. This full grain leather has a soft hand feel with intricate lines, giving it a distinct look from our smoother leathers like Vero and Zita. It comes in a wide variety of colors that you won't find in our other collections and has a polished finish to make them really shine. Its unique appearance and range of colors make it ideal for matching with purses, belts, or other leather items you own.
This is a great item. My first lipstick case ever and now I don't know how I did without it. It has a small mirror that is perfect size to help in applying lipstick. It is very classy looking and not to bulky. Insanely my 15 item from here in 3 months and I LOVE every single item!
I gave this as a gift to my GF and it was well received. She once spoke about the cost of lipstick and I was sure she would like this case. Very good quality. I received the shipment quickly and Leatherology has good customer service.
Very satisfied with the merchandise and your handling and packaging of the order. Thank you
I have already written a review but I will do it a second time. This is a lovely lipstick case. They are impossible to find. They make excellent gifts and are ready to go. It comes in a lovely case with a ribbon around it. No wrapping necessary. I have already bought three. My only problem with it is that the mirror is not enlarged for those of us who need it. The same holds true with hair care products i.e. that the writing is too small to read without glasses. Otherwise, I think you have a real winner here. Please don't discontinue them.
Large enough to hold a tube of lipstick, small enough to fit in purse it is has a mirror. Well constructed.
Fantastic in every way!
Definitely a unique idea...a lipstick case. I love the pink color and quality.of the leather. Already using my purchase and I had no trouble finding it in my purse. Having a mirror inside the case was definitely a plus. Love the product. Will be a repeat customer and will recommend this company to family and friends.
My wife really like the product
I was very pleased with the quality of this product. I was apprehensive about having the initials put on it but after I received it I was very glad I did. It looks great and I know the person who will receive this as a gift will be very happy.
I love my lipstick case. I have had one for a year or so that I got from you but lost it and couldn't get along with out it so I reordered it. I have the billfold also and just ordered the checkbook cover.
Gotta love this lipstick case. Easy to find in my purse and gorgeous purple color. Thanks Leatherology for providing quality products.
I just love the lipstick case!!! I'm very impressed with the quality of the leather and the craftsmanship. It's reasonably priced too. I was so glad I picked out your company which was towards the top of the list when I did a Google search. I would highly recommend your company to my friends and family looking to buy leather goods and accessories. Keep up the good work!
Bought this as a gift for my daughter and she loved it. Can now find her lipstick which was previously buried (and lost)in her purse.
I always use a lipstick case, and this one is just right. The leather is nice quality, and the case has a mirror for easy quick touch ups!
We are pleased with the quality of this product.
I bought this cover as a gift for a young woman starting international travels.........it is perfect. Wonderful quality leather and beautifully made
Exactly what I needed for my new purse. Fit's my lip stick perfectly!
This is a very nice lipstick case. It's well made and I hope to have it with me for many years. Also, I am pleased at how quickly it came, especially considering it was monogrammed.
I am pleased with both the color and quality of the case.
I purchased this item for my Aunt. She had one similar to it, and wanted a second one. She had been unable to find one in a store where she lives, so I went on-line and found the case at Leatherology. My Aunt was delighted with the case.
Well worth it! Very happy I purchased both Red Apple and Cognac. Had both embossed with gold. Will have for years to come. May buy more colors. Fits all my lipsticks (square or round)with plenty of room. Love the matching leather around inside mirror. I've been looking for a very long time for a quality lipstick holder. Search no more!
I had to wait 2 months for this color to be offered again but it was beautiful when it arrived.
This was an outstanding product. The quality exceeded my expectations. It arrived in a nice box with a ribbon around it and the lipstick case itself was wrapped in a soft cloth. Very beautiful and much appreciated as its a gift for my mother. She will love it. I had it monogramed and it looked fabulous. It was shipped in a timely manner and arrived earlier than promised. Will definitely purchase from this company again. Thank you!
Love it!!! Great quality, should last me long time.
I was very impressed with the quality of the lipstick case in addition to the packaging. It will make a great 50th birthday gift for my daughter-in-law.
This lipstick case is very high quality and the color is perfect to help me find it deep in my purse!!!
I love it, this is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you Leatherology.
I have been looking for a leather lipstick case for quite awhile and was so excited to find your website and select from your many colors. It was exactly what I was looking for. After ordering it I received it quickly and the packaging was also top quality. I would recommend this product to anyone...well worth the price.
I am very happy with this product and the service from Leatherology.
Just what I was looking for . . .not so easy to find a lipstick case of this quality on line or at the retail level.
I love my yellow lipstick case as well as the many other products I have bought from Leatherology in the past. I appreciate the packaging as well as the speedy delivery. I certainly will continue doing business with them.
This case fills the bill: it will last, it's just the right size ane the mirror is perfect for putting on lipstick and checking your teeth. I wish that the leather were smoother and shinier; they would really complement the lovely red color.
Very happy with this. Just what I was looking for and a perfect fit for my lipstick. Glad to find something made in America.
Love the color. I plan to give as a gift.
Great product. Easy ordering on website.
The leather is very nice quality. Good size for lipstick. Mirror edges surrounded by leather. Snaps easily.
I was tired of those cheap lipstick holders that would fall apart after a while. When I received my leather lipstick case from Leatherology, I was so impressed with the quality of this product. I am so happy that I plan to get a few more colors and also give as gifts! You will be happy with this investment.
I'm very happy with product, nice wrapping. Very good quality! I hope it will last:)
The case is exactly what I wanted. Your website was easy to use. From product to shipping you were detailed and efficient.
It is just what I have been looking for. The packaging is also very nice. I will order again from Leatherology when I need a nice gift to give.
Beautifully packaged and excellent quality. I am so pleased with this purchase. I will definitely order as gifts in the future.
This item is just what I had been in search for. i love the red color.
Very nice quality and worth the price. Comes packaged professionally and looks very appealing. Love the monogram!
Quality item.
This item, together with a few other Leatherology products, was a stocking stuffer for my wife. I was extremely impressed with the quality of the products, speed of delivery and the packaging was over the top. Needless to say, she was thrilled...and is now shopping the website herself. Thanks!
I love my red lipstick case!. Plus the service was great too.
Absolutely exquisite product!! Very happy with the quality!!
Excellent quality, pricing, service and shipping. It was beautifully packaged.
Very nice! Exactly what I wanted in a lipstick case with mirror. Thanks for the quick shipping and service.
Exactly as expected. Great stocking stuffer that will be sure to please.
Thank you so much - prompt delivery, great product, well presented and the perfect gift - wish I had ordered one for myself too!!
Perfect! This is my second one, only because I lost the first one on a plane.
Exactly what I was looking for. Arrived in timely fashion in perfect condition.
great color, good quality
Perfect...have been looking for this for years. Comes in a lovely box and is of top-notch quality. My only critique...the mirror might have been a little bigger.
been looking for a replacement for hers. terrific
I had been hunting a quality leather lipstick case. I lucked on this web site and have purchased a couple of items. Very good quality.
i love this product. Quality is great and it is very stylish.
Well made and attractive product
Great gift! Great shipping turn-around time! Very pleased! The only thing I should mention is that the Navy is very dark (almost black). Other than that, great experience:)
I had been searching everywhere for a lipstick case for my mom. This is exactly what she wanted. I am very pleased.
Well made, adorable.
Great gift item. Great quality. Had embossed with initials, nice touch but not necessary (not sure I like it as well as I do for other items). Would definitely consider this as gift for others in future, as well as may get one for myself! Once again, a great deal of energy spent for gift presentation, a wonderful surprise because I really didn't pay much attention to the packaging upon ordering. Well worth ordering!!!
The products are great, the look and feel outstanding.
I couldn't be happier. The case is exactly what I was looking for; even better frankly. Quality is excellent and I was blown away at the presentation/packaging. I plan on purchasing gifts here so my friends and family can be equally impressed. I found Leatherology while searching for a liptick case (hard to find item) and I am so pleased to have done so.
Seems nice and well made but not big enough for more than one lipstick. I was hoping it would hold 2 colors.......
So excited to find this for my mother! Love it!
very pleased with this case! excellent quality and large enough to fit all of my lipstick tubes.
Beautiful quality -- just what I hoped for.
Attractive, nice quality, timely delivery. Thank you.
Great lipstick case and fast shipping. The best selection. Love the packaging too! I will definitely be ordering again.
The lipstick case is exactly as pictured and described. It arrived really fast and was packaged beautifully.
Whether you are treating yourself or giving a gift to someone else, we want you to have an amazing and memorable experience. All items will be shipped using our signature gift packaging. Depending on the type and size, your item(s) will come wrapped in our signature microsuede sleeve, drawstring bag or soft velour bag (each with black tie accents), and be packaged inside a high-density bronze gift box. You will also have the opportunity to add a personalized gift note when you place your order.
All of this extra attention to detail is complimentary.

COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION Bottle conditioned. First brewed 1996; claimed to be based on a recipe from 1679 which used wheat, oat and barley. Tripel Karmeliet is a very refined and complex golden-to-bronze brew with a fantastic creamy head. These characteristics derive not only from the grains used but also from restrained hopping with Styrians and the fruity nature (banana and vanilla) of the house yeast. Aroma has hints of vanilla mixed with citrus aromas. Tripel Karmeliet has not only the lightness and freshness of wheat, but also the creaminess of oats together with a spicy lemony almost quinine dryness.

Modern psychiatric drugs treat the chemistry of the whole brain, but neurobiologist David Anderson believes in a more nuanced view of how the brain functions. He illuminates new research that could lead to targeted psychiatric medications — that work better and avoid side effects. How's he doing it? For a start, by making a bunch of fruit flies angry.

Comments about Columbia Tidewater Watch:
For the most part, I like the watch, but the tide function (which is why I bought the watch) leaves a lot to be desired. Instead of advancing automatically, the cursor on the tide graph needs to be advanced manually to the present time of day. Also, my home area of pre-programmed Cape Hatteras is about 3 hours off of the real tide, leaving me to use the tide table of a spot 75 miles to the north. An addendum - the battery died 7 months after purchase
- Was this a gift?:
- No

Easy Clean up and Stain Prevention
Putting your pavers on a general cleaning schedule is a great way to keep them looking tidy. How many times per year is up to you. Some folks in Germany clean their pavers every weekend, some sort of Sunday ritual. Most cleanings can be done using every day household cleaners. Dish soap, laundry soap, and bleach are widely used. Hiring a hardscape firm that specializes in cleaning is also an easy choice.
Let's talk about the most common stains:
- Leaf season. They just keep raining down in the fall. After sitting on your pavers for a bit they leave a nice little stain behind. Harmless? Yes. Unsightly? For sure. The weather itself will remove the stain; however, if time is not on your side, a solution of 20% bleach and 80% water placed on the stain and a bit of elbow grease with a stiff bristled brush will do the trick.
- The daughter's boyfriend's car is leaking oil- "Oh Dad, he was only there a minute". Yikes. First thing let's soak, not rub, the oil up with paper towel or Kitty Litter. After the majority of the spill has been absorbed, a treatment of laundry detergent, or dish soap may be applied directly to the remainder of the stain. Let it sit 10-15 minutes, hose off, repeat as necessary.
- During any outdoor cooking event, there is bound to be some condiment spills. Once again liquid detergent, applied full strength for 10-15 minutes and then scrubbed and rinsed using hot water works very well.
These are the most common stains easily cleaned up using household cleaners. However, if your results were less than satisfactory, Unilock's vast professional cleaners would be your next step.
Avoiding stains altogether is a tough one. Spills will happen. One way to make the clean up a bit easier would be to put a sealer on your project. There is a sealer for everyone's taste, from invisible to a high gloss wet look. These will not only help in clean up, they will give your pavers a splash of personalization.
If you have not decided on your choice of pavers yet, or you would like to retro fit a high stain area, two great choices are Umbriano® and Belpasso®. These pavers come armed with exclusive stain resistant technologies, with features such as Titan Tec™ Surfacing Technology and Stay Clean™ Stain Resistance Technology built in to make clean ups that much easier.

I disagree. I didn't even notice them until I read the comments but I did catch the windows-shaped cereal. I like the background glow but I think the logos are too much. I'm also a little worried about the fading, without a closeup it kinda looks like gradients. But if they're halftones, nice job! If you do resubmit you could try working in a kernel joke...

When I was little, I strictly ate cold pizza. Sometimes I wouldn't even eat it the night we had it ordered so I could enjoy an ice cold piece later on in the morning, fresh from the fridge... then something changed. Now the idea of cold pizza makes my stomach churn, and I practically re-cook it when I re-heat it. This shirt brings back memories... <3

A school in Southern California where the sun is always shining and gorgeous men and women are abundant on campus. Just outside of Malibu, the beach is a stones throw away and you are a minority if you don't surf. In the largely democratic state of California, Pepperdine remains a pocket of conservative students who hate the liberals, but love the Lord. Possibly the most amazing campus setting.
Pepperdine University is freakin incredible.

AC Power Adapter
This precision balance can be connected to a computer using the RS232 port and the included WinCT software. This software can be used with Windows based computers to transmit data to and from your GX-K precision balance.
This precision balance has a water resistant housing with an IP (Ingress Protection) rating of 65. This means the GX-8K is protected from dust and splashed water from all directions. So, ya won't have to worry about getting this A&D balance wet...just wipe it off when you're finished.
You can program this precision balance to automatically turn on when the AC is plugged in and to turn off after a few minutes of inactivity.
This durable precision balance has a really cool dynamic weighing feature that will let ya get accurate weights of unstable items, this is especially great for weighing animals!
To make sure ya get your weights just right, this high capacity precision balance has a checkweighing feature that will let ya set your target weight. Once your target weight is set, the GX-8K will let ya know when you're over, under or just right.
This cumulative weighing feature will let ya get the weights of separate items, then you can see the total weight of all the items you just weighed. This is gonna come in real handy for weighing separate items and total weights for packaging and processing.
This feature will let ya compare the weights of your samples against a predetermined reference weight. This can be helpful in weight checking, compounding, formulating and more.
You bet it does! All ya need to do is weigh a sample amount of pieces, so the GX8K can know how much each piece weighs, then start counting. You'll be finished in no time.
This function will improve the accuracy of the unit weight by re-calculating the unit weight with each additional amount of pieces ya put on the GX-8K. This is gonna make counting your parts and pieces super accurate and super easy.
This digital scale has a fancy VFD display with bright blue digits so your weight readings will be nice and clear. Benefits of the VFD compared to LCD are a wider range of viewing angles, brighter digits, better contrast and easy viewing from greater distances.
The A&D GX8K has an RS232 port built right in. This is important if you're wanting to send your weight readings and other data to an external source like a computer or printer.
The GX 8K has a durable stainless steel weighing platform to make cleanup a breeze. Unlike gold or silver, stainless steel doesn't scratch easily and keeps its shine without rusting or tarnishing.
You won't have to worry about buying calibration weights for this industrial scale. This GX has automatic internal calibration that uses internal weights to calibrate the scale. The GX-8K will automatically calibrate with a significant change in temperature, or whenever ya tell it to. This is gonna come in real handy, especially if ya don't like going through the whole calibration process. If ya prefer to calibrate the GX-8K manually with your own weights, you can do that too.
The tare button on the front of this digital scale can be pressed to "zero out" the weight on the scale. You can then add more weight, and the display will only show the weight of the items you're adding. This sure is useful when ya want to use an expansion scoop to weigh your things, or if ya want to get separate weights of multiple items.
This very handy feature will help you quickly and easily get your scale nice and level. A level scale is important for getting the most accurate weight readings.
This compact balance is covered with a 5 year warranty from A&D Weighing against defects in material and workmanship.

Column: Jesus brings real joy
Joy is something that we experience during different parts of our life. We might experience joy when our favorite team wins a tough game or, on a more sentimental note, we might experience joy when someone comes home from military service. As Christians we experience joy in another way. We take joy in the fact that God has revealed himself through the words of the Bible. In a more complete way Jesus comes in human flesh so that we can hear the voice of God.One of the great moments of joy in the Bible is found in the gospel according to St. Luke. In chapter 15 we hear about a shepherd who is missing one of his sheep and upon finding it he rejoices with his friends and neighbors. We also hear about a woman who lost one of her 10 coins and upon finding it, she too rejoices. Finally we hear the magnificent story that is known as the story of the prodigal son. The joy that emanates from this story comes from the conversion that this man experienced when he was at his lowest point. Hearing someone's conversion story is always very powerful because it is a story of struggle but also joy. Psalm 30 sums it up quite nicely: Lord, you brought my soul up from Sheol; you let me live, from going down to the pit. Sing praise to the Lord, you faithful; give thanks to his holy memory. For his anger lasts but a moment; his favor a lifetime. At dusk weeping comes for the night; but at dawn there is rejoicing. I am a firm believer that each of us has two conversion stories. The first is the initial conversion that we go through, and we make the conscious decision to follow Jesus Christ. The second is the ongoing conversion that we come to at different points of our life. As we go through life we will encounter many opportunities for conversion. This might come to us in the form of battling an addiction. It might also come to us in the form of coming to terms with some bad decisions that we have made that we must turn against. In a few weeks we will celebrate the reason for our joy and hope as Christians. The days leading up to Easter call to mind the great love that God has for us. The sorrow of the crucifixion can be overwhelming but Jesus' life and love does not end there. Joy comes when we see the empty tomb because Jesus has defeated our two greatest fears: sin and death. I hope that in the coming days and weeks we will recognize that it is Jesus who came to bring us joy and to bring that joy to completion.
