Theological Wordbook of the Old Testament
Available Platforms
The Theological Wordbook of the Old Testament offers extensive, scholarly discussion of every Hebrew word of theological significance in the Old Testament.
The Theological Wordbook is essentially a Hebrew lexicon. It is intended to be a ready tool for the pastor and the serious student who want to study carefully and understand more fully the sacred text. However, certain special features also make it useful for those less at home in the Hebrew language.
Words are indexed first by their root; the verbal root and derived words are discussed together. All the derivatives are also listed in proper alphabetical position with a convenient numerical cross reference to lead you to the verbal root where, if it is theologically important, a discussion of the meaning of the root and all its derivatives will be found.
Your purchase of the Theological Wordbook includes the King James Version Bible with Strong's numbers because some words are also indexed by their Strong's Number. For those words, you can simply choose a Strong's number in PocketBible to view the definition for that word. Or if you already own the KJV with Strong's Exhaustive Concordance or New American Standard Exhaustive Concordance, you can access the definitions by choosing the Strong's numbers included with those Bible texts. (Please note that not all Strong's numbers will have a corresponding definition in the Theological Wordbook).

- In-depth explanations of Hebrew words of important theological significance
- One-line definitions of all other Hebrew words used in the Old Testament based on Brown, Driver and Briggs Hebrew and English Lexicon of the Old Testament. It was decided not to include the Old Testament names, except for a few of special theological import, like Abraham, Jerusalem, etc.
- FREE BONUS! Includes King James Version text with Strong's numbers so you can readily access definitions where there is one available for that number.
From the Introduction
"The busy pastor or earnest Christian worker who has neither the time nor background for detailed technical study should yet have a tool for the study of the significant theological words of the Hebrew Bible...therefore, about thirteen years ago, they [the editors and publisher, Moody Press] enlisted the help of some forty evangelical scholars who would write essay definitions of the important theological terms in the Old Testament that would be helpful to their brothers in the work of interpreting Scripture."
Sample Text
Definition for Hebrew word assigned to Strong's number 2208: murder, slay, kill. (2208a) shattering(Ps 42:11; Eze 21:27).
This is a purely Hebrew term. It has no clear cognate in any of the contemporary tongues. The root occurs thirty-eight times in the OT, with fourteen occurrences in Nu 35. The initial use of the root appears in the Ten Commandments (Ex 20:13). In that important text it appears in the simple Qal stem with the negative adverb, You shall not murder, being a more precise reading than the too-general KJV "thou shalt not kill." Much has been made of the fact that the root appears in the Mosaic legislation, as though this term bore a special connotation of premeditation, as though the Decalogue only proscribed premeditated crime. This is not the case, The many occurrences in Nu 35 deal with the organization of the six cities of refuge to which manslayers who killed a person accidentally could flee. Nu 35:11 makes completely clear that the refuge was for those guilty of unpremeditated, accidental killings. This makes clear that the word applies equally to both cases of premeditated murder and killings as a result of any other circumstances, what English Common Law has called, "man slaughter." The root also describes killing for revenge (Nu 35:27,30) and assassination (2Ki 6:32). It appears in a few poetic contexts, as an "A" word in a peculiar parallel construction (Job 24:14); as an "A" word parallel to a general term for immorality, zimma (Ho 6:9); as a "B" word parallel to another synonym "to kill," "to slay" (Ps 94:6). In only one case in the whole OT is the root used of the killing of man by an animal (Pr 22:13). But even in that context it is the enormity and horror of the deed which is primary. In all other cases of the use of this word, it is man's crime against man and God's censure of it which is uppermost.
(NOTE: Actual definition in PocketBible includes Hebrew characters for word being defined.)

Obviously, being on the waterfront is the best seat in the house, so you'll be in good shape given that the Reds' stadium is right on the banks of the Ohio. It'll be crowded down there, so another option might be to try Devou Park across the river in Covington, Kentucky, with good views over the city. Better yet, ask for a waterfront-facing room at the Cincinnati Marriott at RiverCenter, also in Covington and only a short walk across the Ohio to the ballpark and other major Cincinnati attractions.

The town of Pownal, Vt., plans to apply for an Environmental Protection Agency grant of $200,000 to clean up a former tannery hydroelectric dam.
A public hearing for the grant was scheduled for 7 p.m. Thursday at the town office.
The dam is on the Hoosic River and the town took "involuntary ownership" of it in 2002 for non-payment of taxes.
The Bennington Banner reports a cotton print cloth manufacturer at the site in 1866 eventually became a tannery in 1935. The dam was built in 1907 and rebuilt in 1955. The company shut down in 1988.
The company became an EPA Superfund site; the dam did not. Developers have looked at making the dam run again, but PCB contamination in the sediment behind it has thwarted those efforts.

Chrysler Pacifica Replacement Oxygen Sensor Information
For consumers who place high importance on performance and technology, Chrysler can be trusted to deliver. People who want to get the maximum performance from their engine understand that only premium quality aftermarket and OEM parts should be used for repairs and maintenance. When the ratio of fuel to air is too low, inadequate engine power will be the aftermath; conversely, a fuel-heavy mixture causes harm to your motor and unwanted unburned fuel from the car's tailpipe. The Chrysler Pacifica Oxygen Sensor is a part used to regulate the level of oxygen in the car or truck's exhaust. Often put on the exhaust manifold, your Oxygen Sensor delivers oxygen levels measured in the car's fuel system to the computer. Your Oxygen Sensor maintains the gas to oxygen proportion by evaluating it to guarantee ideal mileage.
They are available for the following Chrysler Pacifica years: 2008, 2007, 2006, 2005, 2004, 08, 07, 06, 05, 04. This part is also sometimes called Chrysler Pacifica O2 Sensor. We stock oxygen sensor parts for most Chrysler models including Town & Country, PT Cruiser, Sebring, 300M, 300, Concorde, Crossfire, LHS, Aspen, LeBaron, Voyager, Cirrus, New Yorker, Conquest, Intrepid, Imperial, TC Maserati, Grand Voyager, Fifth Avenue, Laser, 200, Newport, Cordoba, Neon, Prowler, Dynasty, E Class, Daytona, Executive Limousine and Executive Sedan.
We stock these Oxygen Sensor brands for the Chrysler Pacifica: Denso, Bosch and Walker Products.

07 2007 Chrysler Pacifica Fuel Pressure Regulator Standard Motor Products
04 2004 Chrysler Pacifica Idle Control Valve Mopar
05 2005 Chrysler Pacifica MAP Sensor 3.5L V6 Mopar
06 2006 Chrysler Pacifica Throttle Position Sensor Mopar
OEM Part was 1/3 the price of dealer and worked great. Would highly recommend PartsGeek for any part your car may need
Tried using a cheaper style of O2 sensor from parts store but check engine lamp kept coming on. The factory used Denso sensors which PartsGeek had at 1/3 the price of the dealership. Ordered sensors installed and check engine lamp no longer comes on. Very pleased with parts quaility and price very easy to order and they were here when promised. Would highly recommend PartsGeek for any part needed for your car.
Replaced both O2 sensors with EO style ones Denso. Worked great at 1/3 the cost of dealer parts tried sensors from autoparts store with did not work and would not take back. Was very happy to have check engine light stay off after repairs.

The South by Southwest music festival in Austin, Texas wrapped up late last month, but here at FORBES, we're bringing you one last video from the Lone Star State. Its subject: the Music Ranch, one of the "Anti-SXSW" festivals that now spring up every March.
Music Ranch owner Gino "G" Cavazos gave us a tour of his grounds, located just 12 miles from downtown Austin, and explained his business model. In exchange for permission to camp out at the ranch and a chance to showcase their work in front of a live audience, musicians play for free (as is the case with most who play at SXSW itself).
For fans, the prices vary depending on the day and the acts scheduled to play, but the daily total is generally less than the cost of a couple beers at an arena rock show.
Cavazos's establishment isn't decidedly anti-establishment, however: admission to the Music Ranch includes camping passes on the grounds, and many guests looking to avoid Austin's pricey hotels use the cheap outdoor lodging as a base from which to make the trek to official South by Southwest shows downtown.
For more, check out the video below!

This matching opportunity might be over, but your dollars are still needed to help earthquake-affected families. Please consider a gift. Thank you.

2002 Toyota Tundra Overview
Overall User Score
Based on 18 reviews
The 2002 Toyota Tundra continued to give drivers the high quality pickup they had come to expect from the Tundra line. The full-size Tundra is slightly smaller that the American full-size trucks, but counterbalances this paucity with a smooth, quiet ride.
The standard engine remained a 3.4-liter double-overhead-cam V6 rated at 190 horsepower with 220 lb/ft of torque, while the upgrade is a 4.7-liter double-overhead-cam V8 rated at 245 horsepower with 315 lb/ft of torque.
Driving is very smooth, and towing is quite simple. The relatively powerful engine barely hesitates at heavier loads, and is rugged in all kinds of weather.

Killer Mike - Delilah ft. A-Game
Artist: Killer Mike
Producer: B-Don [for DMG]
Album: Sunday Morning Massacre Series (#8)
Avg Rating: 3.2 ( 14 votes )
K. Sparks has Manic Mondays, XV has 40 Days, 40 Nights, and Theo has Channel Surfin'. Flying under the radar, however, is Killer Mike and his Dirty South series, the Sunday Morning Massacre. On Delilah, the eighth edition in his series, the Grind Time general tells the story of a woman who uses charm and seduction to get money from corporate execs and pro athletes (both married and unmarried). So, where does ol' Killa Kill from the 'Ville play into this? Well, he just woke up to find himself the temptress's latest victim. Assisted by singer A-Game's hook and B-Don's laid-back beat, Mike and Delilah should have plenty of listeners checking for next week's edition of the Sunday Morning Massacre series.

COLUMBIA — Transfer forward DeMarre Carroll lived up to his hype in his first official game in a Missouri uniform, scoring 21 points and grabbing eight rebounds in Missouri's 87-76 win over Central Michigan on Monday at Mizzou Arena.
"His energy is contagious with our basketball team," Missouri coach Mike Anderson said. "He's a slasher and gets the extra shot on the offensive end and defensively. He is one of those versatile guys that can move."
It was an unusual start for Carroll, whose first two official shots were missed 3-pointers. He came into form shortly after.The 6-foot-8 forward was tenacious on the boards, with all eight rebounds and 17 of his points coming in the first half.
The only two shots Carroll missed all game were the two 3-pointers.
"I was wide open and (coach) said that's what they were baiting me to do," Carroll said. "But me, in my head, I was like, 'Hey, I'm going to take them because I'm wide open.' But he kind of settled me down and I got back to my game."
Carroll was one of Missouri's few bright spots in the first half. The Tigers trailed early before taking a 43-38 lead into the break.
Missouri upped the intensity in the second half, even with Carroll sitting out for big chunks of time with foul trouble. The Tigers locked down on defense and started taking advantage of easy scoring opportunities in the paint.
Forward Leo Lyons filled in during Carroll's absences in the second half, scoring 12 of his 18 points and grabbing all five rebounds after halftime.
Carroll fouled out with 3:23 left in the game but received a standing ovation from the 5,042 in attendance.
Guard Stefhon Hannah and Keon Lawrence scored 10 points a piece for Missouri, and Lawrence added six rebounds as well.
"It's not going to be always our night," Lawrence said of Missouri's guards. "Our shots some nights just aren't going to fall, we've just got to go do other things. I went and got some rebounds."
Each of Missouri's 11 scholarship players saw playing time, and all but forwards Justin Safford and Vaidotas Volkus scored.
The win advances Missouri (1-0) to the second round of the O'Reilly Auto Parts CBE Classic against Fordham at 7 tonight.
As the regional host, Missouri is favored to reach the semifinals Monday at the Sprint Center in Kansas City. But Fordham (2-0) presents a formidable challenge.
"They are a very good basketball team, very physical," Anderson said. "They are an attacking team."
Led by All-Atlantic 10 Conference players Bryant Dunston and Marcus Stout, Fordham brings back all five starters from the team that finished 18-12 last season, just missing out on an NIT bid.
About 300 people came to see Fordham's 76-66 win over Central Missouri in Monday's early game at Mizzou Arena. Dunston and Stout combined for 42 points with Dunston adding 10 rebounds.
Tremaine Luellen led Central Missouri with 17 points.
Central Missouri (0-1) and Central Michigan (0-1) will play a consolation game at 4 p.m. at Mizzou Arena.
"We have to play the game that we want to play," Anderson said about MU's game against Fordham. "I think they may want to play that way too, but basketball is about advantages and disadvantages. Their advantage is probably post, and we've got to figure out some ways to keep the ball out of (Dunston's) hands."

When You Want to Crawl in a Hole But Can't
In "one fatal keystroke" Rose Zory, the Chief People Officer at Carat Media sent a "for top management only" email on the messaging managers should use when firing (oops, rightsizing) some employees.
She sent that email to every single person in the company. Carat is Europe's largest media group, by the way. It provides advertising and public relations services, expertise it badly needed at that point.
Now comes the flood of advice (again!) about how to avoid such email embarrassments and what to do when they happen. What would you do?

Texas Cooperative Extension, Texas A&M University, College Station, Texas
Possum-Haw Holly (Ilex decidua) ach year in November and December, there is a flurry of interest by consumers, customers, and gardeners in what they call the 'yaupon-like plant without any leaves'. Ilex decidua attracts so much attention because of its spectacular and unique presentation of red, orange, and yellow fruit, which appear when the foliage drops in November or early December. The colorful berries usually remain all winter unless they are removed by the cedar waxwing or one of the other nine species known to feed on the fruit.

Possum-haw hollies are useful in the landscape as large shrubs or small trees, and may occur with single or multiple trunks. Female plants are preferred, since male selections are fruitless and provide little ornamental value.
Ilex decidua, Possomhaw holly Culture is easy. Possum-haws are native from East Texas to western regions of the state, and grow in a wide variety of soil and moisture conditions. They tolerate poor drainage quite well, but will thrive under fairly dry situations.
Availability is getting better, but expect some difficulty in locating nursery-grown plants. Some nurseries are now growing female selections from cuttings, which assures the fruit color and sex of the plant.
Seeds are easily propagated, but this often results in a high percentage of male plants. Determining their gender is not practical until plants are old enough to flower, which may be in 2 to 4 years.
If collecting specimens from their native habitat, two things should be kept in mind. First, select a plant with at least a few berries; second, unless you have access to large-scale digging equipment, choose a small plant. Possum-haws grow quickly once established; however, large collected plants can be slow to recover from transplanting. Ilex decidua is a beautiful and potentially useful small tree adapted to most of Texas. Increasing availability should make it a popular choice for many home owners.

Anthony, also known as "Antsy," is fascinated by "The Schwa Effect"--the fact that no one ever sees Calvin Schwa. Even when acting weird and dressed like a total freak, The Schwa is only barely noticed. The two boys form a partnership and get away with all kinds of mischief, from conducting experiments at school to confounding opponents on the basketball court. When The Schwa senses that even Antsy is beginning to lose sight of him, he vows to do something that will make him so visible, no one will ever forget him. Any kid who's ever felt unnoticed will identify with Schwa and Antsy and their quest for notoriety.

Nice to have your own mulberries errr...i also wanted to plant.somehow not that easy..where i can get the seeds here ma..huhuhuh
passion fruit dah ada...next mulberry pulak...where u get the seed..olive?
eeee bestnye olive.cantiknye.
haha tq. i bought the plant Rm7 only last year kat flora exjibition in putrajaya. it is grow by keratan. if seed take longer time to bear fruit. i try to plant the keratan by my own but tak jadi. the new tunas eadily come out fr keratan but die aft few days. i aso dunno y
My keratan mulberries died because of kulat i guess. Must try again
Wah Olive, the fruits are bigger. You can try using ke cuttings again. After obtaining the cuttings,soak in water (the whole cutting) for a few hours.
Great berries to grow around the house. Children would love them, and education will come along with questions like "can we make jam, why sour, silkworms really love these leaves...." endless. Our mulberry plants don't seem to stop fruiting!!
hi, nice post! By the way, where do you get the seed? i am very interested in berry family plants but i dont know how.. hope you can help me..

text: Hello, recently I rewrote QMidiRoute completely and obtained a utility that is useful not only for keyboard splitting: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/mana/qmidiroute-0.2.0.tar.bz2 QMidiRoute is a filter/router for MIDI events. Possible types include Note On/Off, Controller, Pitchbend, Program Change. Events are mapped in one or several maps. Each map has an input and an output section. The input section determines the set of events which should be processed by the respective map. The output section specifies the modifications that are applied to the input event before it is passed to the output port. If an input event matches several maps, each map will send an output event. The tab "Unmatched" specifies what happens with events that do not match any map. They can be either discarded (the default) or sent to a selectable output port. Map settings can be saved/retrieved. There is also a cmdline option for loading to allow easy use of QMidiRoute e.g. in scripts. QMidiRoute also includes an event log window for note, controller, pitchbend and program change events. Feedback is appreciated. Maybe you can think of further use cases which require an extension of QMidiRoute... Have a lot of fun !

Race Matters: Green Back Packers Wide Receiver Jordy Nelson Says Being White Is A Factor In His Success
- By Bossip Staff Categories: News, Race Matters, SportsYou know how some folks are quick to say so-and-so doesn't "act black"? Well apparently NFL player Jordy Nelson doesn't "play white." Whatever that's supposed to mean.
Well if you're a football fan you know exactly what it means. Most of the successful wide receivers in the league ARE black. But we'll let Nelson and his teammates explain what makes him different:
"It's easy for someone to say, 'Oh yeah, he's like one of those other white receivers,' " Nelson's Packers teammate, Greg Jennings, told the Green Bay Press Gazette. "He's not. I'm sorry, he's not. He knows how I feel about it. Maybe I'm a little biased because he is a teammate, but from watching him Day 1 to right now, totally different player."
True enough, Nelson is having an outstanding season in his fourth year. His 633 receiving yards already are a career high, and his seven touchdowns are more than he caught in his first three years combined. And with 34 receptions right now, he should easily surpass his career high of 45, set last year.
We'd call that a pretty good year — for a white receiver or otherwise. But for the record, Nelson is of the opinion that being a white receiver does, in fact, play a role in his success.
"Honestly, I think it is (a factor)," Nelson said. "As receivers, we've talked about it. I know (cornerbacks coach) Joe Whitt tells me all the time, when all the rookies come in, he gives them the heads up, 'Don't let him fool ya.' That's fine with me."
Hey, let's be real about this: Aside from Wes Welker, there just aren't many white guys who stand out as NFL receivers — at least not compared to their African-American counterparts. Even with that being the case, Jennings, who's black, is quick to credit Nelson's success to something other than his skin color.
"It's not because he didn't put the time in. It's not because he's the white guy," Jennings said. "A lot of it has to do with the fact that guys look at him and say, 'OK, yeah, he's the white guy, he can't be that good.' Well, he is that good. He's proven to be that good, and it's because of the work and the time that he's put in, not only on the field, but in his preparation off the field."
All this talk about being white and not playing white, does that mean that people just feel comfortable enough to openly allow race into the discussion now, or is it another sign that people are obsessed with race and we'll never learn to look past it and stop making generalizations?
And yeah we already know how good Jordy Nelson is because he and his Packers gave our Steelers a hurtin' in last years SuperBowl that we still haven't recovered from.

Your Comments(please keep them on topic and polite)
on 02.02.12 Diane Montigney commented
My comment is it should be up to the Pastor. Our church has a Superbowl "souperbowl" party at our rec center. Everyone is invited and asked to make their favorite soup and bring it with you. We watch the game together and eat together. Since we have 5 services on any given sunday morning, this is a great opportunity for us to get to know some of the new people attending the church and also bring in others who may never enter a church door! The game is played on a moving screen at the Rock Rec Center and tables are set up with soups, deserts, etc.(also table to eat at as well. It is a great way to celebrate together & cheer for your team and still watch the game with christian fellowship. This year they are adding a christian movie to be shown at 3pm and then pregame show will start right after.
No one is missing church and we all have a good time in the Lord. Pastor Dan excludes some of the suggestive commercials so they are blocked (victoria secret, etc.)
Just a suggestion! It works for us!!!
on 02.03.12 Rick Peters commented
I think it is sad we even have to ask that question.It shows us where our loyalty and love is in the the body of Christ. God is a jeolous God and should not take 2nd to anybody or anything.We use outreach as a excuse sometime I believe, but we do not need entertianment to reach soul what we need is the power of the Holy Spirit.
on 02.03.12 Jack Beckstrom commented
I think each church has to decide based on their normal sunday evening service schedule. Our church doesn't have an evening service, so we are inviting a few other couples from church to our house for the game and fun fellowship. Oh and food... lots of food lol
on 02.03.12 Deb commented
Our church does not have service on
Mothers Day or Fathers Day or Super Bowl Sunday. Opting instead to promote that EXTRA family time that the first two offer us .
As for the Super Bowl... My family pretends to like it, so we can eat snacks and be silly cheering for the teams , which we really KNOW nothing about.
For those who gather to just drink alcohol while they watch the game??? Maybe we shouldn't be saying things that scare them from church on the other Sundays (c:
As for the commercials? They go overboard in sexual innuendo and insult of people and are not MY favotite part at all. Hoping for a Focus On The Family commercial tho'.
on 02.03.12 Jeff commented
I have been in the church all my life, I am 53. This whole discussion is ridiculous !!! If we are not secure enough in our relationship with Christ that we cannot miss a service to do something we enjoy, It is crazy !! As we live and move in relationship with Christ, he is with us as much in church as when we are on the toilet !! If we can build relationship with an unbeliever, during the process of watching a game, all the better. Remember, we are the only reflection of Christ that some people will ever see. They won't see it if we are always in church. They will see it if we are willing to hang out with the "unbelievers" as Jesus did. He was appealing to the sinner, why did they all hang out with him ? Christ has come to give us life, and to give the life to the people that will never step foot inside a church as well. But they will only get it, if we are real enough to step out and show them what that life looks like.
on 02.03.12 Jay Wright commented
I think about Christians around the world who are persecuted, and they hear about Americans not going to Church... because of a game?! And what if Jesus came back Super Bowl Sunday TO the church, and they were empty?
on 02.06.12 Laurie commented
Those of us that keep the 4th commandment do not have a problem with the first day of the week's activities.Sabbath is meant to be kept holy, that was God's gift to us. And Jesus kept it as his custom :)Sabbath was instituted at creation and is still meant for us today.praise God

The MUPUS experiment on the Rosetta Lander will measure thermal and mechanical properties as well as the bulk density of the cometary material at and just below the surface of the nucleus of comet 46P/Wirtanen. A profile of bulk density vs. depth will be obtained by measuring the attenuation of 662 keV gamma rays emitted by a 137Cs source. Compton scattering is the dominant interaction process at this energy, the attenuation depending directly on the total number of electrons along the source–detector path. This in turn is approximately proportional to the column density. We report here on the design of the bulk density instrument and the results of related Monte Carlo simulations, laboratory tests and calculations of the instrument's performance. The 137Cs radioisotope source is mounted in the tip of the MUPUS thermal probe—a 10 mm diameter rod, to be hammered into the surface of the nucleus to a depth of 370 mm. Two cadmium zinc telluride (CZT) detectors mounted at the top of the probe will monitor the count rate of 662 keV photons. Due to the statistics of photon counting, the integration time required to measure column density to a particular accuracy varies with depth as well as with bulk density. The required integration time is minimised for a material thickness equal to twice the exponential attenuation length. At shallower depths the required time rises due to the smaller fractional change in count rate with varying depth, while at greater depths the reduced count rate demands longer integration times. The former effect and the fact that the first 45 mm of the source–detector path passes not through the comet but through the material of the probe, mean that the first density measurement cannot be made until the source has reached a depth of perhaps 100 mm. The laboratory experiments indicate that at this depth an integration time no less than 348 s (falling to 93.9 s at full penetration) would be required to measure a bulk density of 1000 kgm−3 to 5% accuracy, assuming a source activity of 1.48 mCi (decayed from an initial 2 mCi). Although solutions involving feedback of the measured bulk density into a time-budgeting algorithm are conceivable, a simple approach where equal time is spent per unit depth may be best, providing an accuracy in bulk density of around 5–20%, for 25 mm slices and the expected range of parameters.

I'm upset about the current state of health care affordability in America, and I want you to know why. Twelve years ago I started my own small business creating software for scientific applications. My client, another small business, manufactures laboratory equipment and markets it worldwide.
They now have installations using my software from China to Germany, and from sea level to the mountains of Tibet. While most of America is busy sending money to China hand over fist, we actually bring cash back to Missouri in return for lab equipment.
Unfortunately, when I left a larger firm to pursue my dream, I lost all purchasing clout once my COBRA expired. As far as insurance companies are concerned, I'm a second-class citizen with no negotiating power and must pay whatever they demand. Despite staying healthy and making little use of the system, I am charged nearly $4,000 per year for medical insurance that has so far paid me nothing. The deductible is so high that I never collect benefits, and premiums are eating much of the profit from my business.
I only hope that if I do suffer an illness or injury and need coverage, the insurer will not toss me out like yesterday's newspaper.
I recently found better, cheaper coverage in a plan offered through my professional association. It had more benefits and would have saved me at least a hundred a month; however, I was declined due to hemochromatosis.
It's a genetic condition related to iron absorption that is easy and inexpensive to treat, but can be life threatening if not managed. So now I am discriminated against, not for making bad choices, but because of my genetic makeup and because I chose to leave a larger employer and create new business for products made in America. What's wrong with this picture?
I ask that everyone be given the same opportunity to purchase affordable coverage, so I can be on an even footing instead of the "winners and losers" system we have now. I know someone is going to gripe if we do enact reform, since some who work for a large organization now pay less for better coverage. And maybe insurance companies would make less money than they do now. My heart bleeds for them — no, wait! Bleeding would be a medical problem, wouldn't it? I can't risk that or I might lose my coverage.
I really don't care whether the plan involves public or private operation. Am I afraid of a government run plan? No — it would probably be better than what I have and no less efficient. I already have other people deciding whether I can afford medical procedures, so stories about bureaucrats determining what treatment I receive don't scare me. Medicare looks pretty good to me now. Unfortunately I am years away from eligibility. I hear Congress has a pretty good medical plan — how about letting me in?
I can't afford to make large campaign contributions, but I do vote. Please get past the arguments and delays and enact meaningful reform of our health care delivery system, so it will be there without bankrupting me, when and if I should need it.

In other news, the Internet promptly exploded this morning when we learned that Beyoncé is going to be performing at the VMAs! On top of that, MTV will be giving Queen Bey the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award, the biggest, most impressive award you can get on the VMAs. Oh, and she's also nominated for eight additional Moonmen. Even if she doesn't end up bringing home all nine possible Moonmen, we can easily list 9 reasons she has already won our hearts!
+ She Embraces Feminism
Even these days sometimes people shy away from calling themselves a feminist (despite the fact that it means you're a believer in equality, and everyone should be). But Beyoncé recorded "***Flawless," pretty much letting people know her opinion.
+ She Writes About Women's Rights
She's written about women's rights for The Shriver Report, saying, "Today, women make up half of the U.S. workforce, but the average working woman earns only 77 percent of what the average working man makes. But unless women and men both say this is unacceptable, things will not change. Men have to demand that their wives, daughters, mothers and sisters earn more — commensurate with their qualifications and not their gender."
+ She Has Done United Nations Work
She's backed the United Nations' World Humanitarian Day. "It's high time we rise together," she said. "Do one thing for another human being — nothing is too small. It begins with each of us. Make your mark and say 'I was here.' "
+ She's Even Sung for the United Nations
Speaking of which, she also did her "I Was Here" song specifically for the United Nations. It was nominated for Best Video with a Social Message at the VMAs, and coincidentally she's nominated in the same category again this year!
+ She Takes On Unrealistic Beauty Standards
This time Bey's nominated for "Pretty Hurts," which takes on unrealistic beauty standards, and promotes the fact it's better to be happy than hurt yourself trying to look a certain way.
+ She Helps Homeless People
According to those who know her, Queen Bey has also given seven million dollars to help Houston's homeless population. She wasn't talking about it herself, but her pastor felt the world ought to know!
+ She Helps People Find Jobs
This economy isn't the best for finding jobs, so Beyoncé created the #BeyGOOD initiative, through which she worked with Goodwill to help people get the jobs they need.
+ She Wants You To Rise
She likes to talk about empowerment, and that's why she got behind the #IRiseFor campaign. What inspires you to rise and better yourself and the world around you?
+ She Co-founded Chime for Change
She wants real change to happen, and she's especially interested in making positive change for women. That's why she's the co-founder for the feminist Chime for Change campaign, saying, "It's up to us to change the statistics for women around the world. I'm honored to be in the company of women who live fearlessly and set an example for the next generation of young ladies."

Negative Ads Chip Away At Gingrich's Standing
By Greg Allen
Republican presidential hopeful Newt Gingrich continues his bus tour of Iowa. After leading in the polls, he's had setbacks in recent days. Negative campaign ads by his opponents have hurt him with some voters. And on Tuesday, the former House speaker found his message side tracked by new disclosures involving the divorce from his first wife.

Support center is 'oasis' for wounded warriors, families
December 6, 2011
By Elaine Sanchez, American Forces Press Service

SAN ANTONIO ( Dec. 5, 2011) -- It's only 10 a.m., but the Warrior and Family Support Center on Fort Sam Houston here is bustling.
Troops, some in wheelchairs and others heavily scarred, crowd around big-screen TVs to catch the latest sports news in the cavernous, sun-filled front room. In the kitchen up the hall, volunteers load baking sheets into ovens and the smell of fresh-baked cookies begins to waft through the air.
In a nearby craft room, a family gathers for a leather workshop. A triple-amputee Soldier, dressed in jeans and a black cowboy hat, lays out a thin strip of leather onto a table as his brother, also a Soldier, prepares to emboss a design.
The visitors here are a mix of civilian and military, from different backgrounds and services, but all come to the center with the same purpose in mind: to seek solace and support.
"The center is an oasis in the middle of a lot of things going on for [these troops]," said Judith Markelz, director of the Warrior and Family Support Center. "Everybody is welcome here, and no one notices anything. It's a safe zone."
This sprawling, 12,500-square-foot building, which was completely funded through civilian donations, opened in 2008 to offer wounded warriors and their families a place to connect and find emotional support, and to serve as a respite away from the rigors of recovery. It's just steps away from Brooke Army Medical Center, where many combat-wounded service members are treated, and the Center for the Intrepid, a state-of-the art rehabilitation center.
Thanks to individuals and organizations' generosity, the center offers wounded warriors and their families more than 100 free activities each month, including sporting events, movies, plays, concerts, shopping trips, lunches and dinners out, and fishing trips. Inside, it features a learning facility for computerized training, a counseling room, a business center, a video game room, a kids' area, and a craft room popular among both family members and wounded warriors.
This day, military mom Saralee Trimble has stopped by to take a basket-weaving class. The busy work is soothing, she said, as she laid out thin strips of reed, and a healing break away from full-time care of her 19-year-old son, Army Pfc. Kevin Trimble. Her son lost his legs and an arm in a September roadside bomb blast in Afghanistan.
"The center helps you get a break from being hands-on with your Soldier all the time," she said. "It's a place to go during appointments. It's so important. I don't know what I'd do without it."
Trimble said she takes needlepoint projects from here to her son's bedside.
"It fills the many hours I'm there," she said.
The crafts are an asset, but to Markelz, the center's focal point is the well-equipped, spacious kitchen. "Food is the universal language," she said. "And to many of the service members, food is love." Although early, she noted the kitchen already was packed with volunteers cooking breakfast for the troops and their families.
More than 140 volunteers from the community frequent the center to cook, conduct classes or spend time with service members, she said, and there's always a waiting list of more people eager to help.
Each day, donations of food and other items stream through the door. Later on, four ladies would stop by with 40 dozen cookies.
"It's like 'Field of Dreams,'" Markelz said, referring to the 1989 movie. "If you build it, they will come. I think of something we need, and someone walks through my door. I've never had to ask for anything."
When the Texas heat allows, visitors can walk the grounds, taking a path that meanders through a butterfly garden, barbecue pit, water features, and past a soon-to-be unveiled children's playground.
The center's impressive size and offerings belie its more humble beginnings.
Eight years ago, a committee of therapists, physicians and other helping professionals came to Fort Sam Houston's Army Community Service, where Markelz worked at the time, in the hopes of creating a space where wounded warriors and their families could gather and find support. They asked her to run this new center, which they tucked away in conference rooms on the second floor of the Powless Hall Guest House here.
The Soldier and Family Assistance Center opened Dec. 8, 2003, and became an instant hit. But the need for more space soon became evident. As word spread of the center's positive effects, community members looking to help stepped in.
Through donations and the Returning Heroes Home project, the support center moved from a 1,200-square-foot area to its new $5.6 million home, and reopened Dec. 8, 2008.
Next up for the center is Phase 2, also funded through donations. The outdoor therapeutic garden and recreation area is slated to open in March 2012 and will feature a track, beach volleyball, fitness stations and disc golf.
Since the center's early days, Markelz, who is known to many simply as "Mom," has seen thousands of warriors and family members come through its doors. Closest to her heart, she said, are the families of service members who die here and the families of service members who walk out of here with no legs, "but they walk out of here."
These families "become part of my life; all of our lives," she added.
Family members sacrifice everything to be by their loved one's side, Markelz said. "I have never seen anything like this. They lose their jobs, their cars, their medical care, their houses, but when you ask them why, they say the same thing: 'That's what you do for your child.' They are my heroes."
She cited Trimble, the triple-amputee Soldier's mom, as just one example among many. Trimble left her home and her husband behind, and will be here for about two years aiding her son.
"I've never heard her complain," she said. "She's simply grateful her son is alive."
The wars may be drawing down, but that won't mark the end of the need here, Markelz noted. Wounded warriors and their families will continue to need help for years to come.
"We just can't forget these young men and women and their families. They are the best of the best and we owe them, all of them," she said.
As soon as she's done speaking, Markelz rushes off. She has a long list of things to do and a phone that never stops ringing. She wears many hats as director: counselor, friend, mom and, more recently, wedding planner.
A scenic locale out back has become a popular wedding site for wounded warriors, and the center soon will mark its 28th wedding. Each bride gets a new dress -- 61 were donated three years ago -- a bouquet and cake.
"Weddings are a celebration of life," Markelz said. "It goes on."

Godzilla Against Mechagodzilla (2003)
Rating: 7/10.

I had a lot of fun with this new version of MG. The scene where the robot, built from the bones of the original monster, reverts back to his instincts after something is triggered when Godzilla roars was pretty damn cool. Japan was helpless to stop the rampaging robot till its batteries ran down.
The battles were really top notch, too. The next installment, GODZILLA, MOTHRA, MECHAGODZILLA: TOKYO SOS feels more like an extension of this movie than a separate film. The biggest difference from the older MG films is that in those, aliens built the machine and in the later ones, man built the massive robot monster.
Carl, you missed one or are you saving it for later? I don't see GODZILLA, MOTHRA, KING GHIDORAH: GIANT MONSTERS ALL OUT ATTACK from 2002.I liked this one, the battles were flash and it was still a lot of fun, but while Mechagodzilla is undeniably cool looking, I feel like I could put the various Godzilla plotlines and potential villains in a hat and pull this film out.
I thought I had rearranged the DVDs in the box set correctly in chronological order, but I must have swapped those two by mistake. GMAOA is next on the watch list, then I am done with Godzilla for a bit until the next batch of movies come in.
BUT, fans of my non-Kaiju films can let out a joined groan of agony, since my Gamera box set should be showing up this week!! Woo Hoo!!

I used to be addicted to ice cream…There was a couple of days when all I had to eat was this sorbet…ALL day. haha. Like the equivalent of someone eating ice cream all day, but only this stuff made me feel gooood
2 cups frozen berries. I like blueberries, Raspberries and strawberries
Juice of a lemon or two (depending on what you like and how your blender works)
squeeze of agave nectar, or honey
I like adding a tablespoon of vanilla extract too
just blend in a blender. I might be a little work to keep incorporating the berries well if you don't have a homogenizer, but its not difficult…it soon becomes a beautiful sorbet! i'll get a pic soon
ps, i suppose of you don't want sorbet, just add almond milk and make a smoothie
