|This research focuses on Black Natural Resources Professionals (BNRPs) career advancement opportunities and factors effecting their decisions to relocate when moving to rural or remote communities. The purpose of this study is to determine how these relocation decisions of BNRPs affect their careers. The objective of this dissertation is to test the effect of four significant factors that influence BNRP decisions to relocate for career advancement. They are social support, racial discrimination/fairness, living in a remote or rural area and gender. The methodology includes preliminary interviews, analysis of public records and an on-line quantitative survey of BNRPs. The data for this dissertation were drawn from the United States Department of Interior, (USDI), National Park Service (NPS). NPS have a total number of 15,925 permanent employees. The raw data file included 1378 Black employees in all occupations and 179 Black employees in the natural resources area. Of the 179 employees, (101 Black males and 78 black female), 164 confidential e-mails were confirmed as delivered and 83 responded to the survey. Fifty-one percent of the participants responded (see Appendix H). Their employment classifications in the General Schedule (GS) range from GS level 9 to GS level 15.

If you want our freedoms restored, well, as they say, don't hold your breath waiting — especially since holding your breath may soon be against the law, at least in a certain context.
In a White House statement released on May 26, President Obama stated: "I called on the Environmental Protection Agency and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to clear up the confusion and uphold our basic duty to protect these vital [water] resources."
Over the last four years, the fight to protect innocent life has become more intense, with states across the country passing 200 abortion-restricting laws. In particular, laws focused specifically on late-term abortions have gained traction since 2010, when the first 20-week abortion ban was passed. Since then, thirteen states have outlawed abortions after 20 weeks, and the movement continues as the U.S. House of Representatives approved a late-term abortion ban earlier this month, and legislatures in Wisconsin and South Carolina are considering similar measures.
On Thursday, U.S. District Judge Rosemary Collyer appeared skeptical of the Obama administration's position during arguments in an ObamaCare lawsuit filed by the U.S. House of Representatives against the White House. The suit, which marks the first by the full House against a sitting president, comes as the American people await a Supreme Court ruling on a separate lawsuit that challenges ObamaCare's health insurance subsidies.
Senator Mike Lee published a blog rehearsing the history of John Wilkes, general warrants, and the Fourth Amendment.

Further testing revealed that I needed to make a some updates to the audit package to support this.

Hello, and welcome to the Middleby Corporation Third Quarter Earnings Call. On the line with us today we have Mr. Selim Bassoul, Chairman and CEO; and Mr. Tim FitzGerald, CFO of the Middleby Corporation. [Operator Instructions]
Now to start off our conference, I would like to welcome and turn the call over to Mr. Tim FitzGerald.
Timothy J. FitzGerald
Okay. Good morning, and thank you for attending today's conference call. I'm Tim FitzGerald, CFO of the Middleby Corporation and joining me today is Selim Bassoul, our Chairman and CEO.
Net sales in the 2012 third quarter of $257.7 million increased 17.8% from $218.7 million in the third quarter of 2011. Third quarter sales reflect the impact of acquisitions completed during the past 12 months, including Auto-Bake, Danfotech, Maurer-Atmos, Drake, Armor Inox, Baker Thermal Solutions and Stewart Systems, and therefore, are not fully reflected in the prior year results. Sales growth from these acquisitions accounted for $39 million of the increase during the quarter.
Excluding the impact of these acquisitions, sales increased 9.8% over the prior year quarter. This reflects a 5% increase in sales at our Commercial Foodservice group, and a 40.2% increase in sales at our Food Processing group. Sales growth in the quarter was adversely impacted by foreign currency exchange rates, which impacted sales as reported in U.S. dollars by approximately 1.5%. In the Commercial Foodservice group, we continue to realize growth driven by increased sales to restaurant chains looking to upgrade equipment, adapt new technologies to improve the efficiency of store operations.
Sales in emerging markets also remained strong, with the growth of approximately 18% in Asia and Latin America, offset by reduced sales in Europe, which declined by approximately 15%, reflecting difficult economic conditions, which we anticipate will continue in the near term.
Sales at the Food Processing group realized significant growth in the quarter, reflecting sales on several large projects. Our sales growth will moderate in upcoming quarters as compared to the third quarter. Order rates continue to remain strong and we continue to see growing demand by Food Processing customers looking to modernize existing production operations and new customers developing operations in emerging markets.
Gross profit increased to $100.4 million from $87.3 million, and the gross margin rate was 39% as compared to 39.9% in the prior year quarter. The gross margin rate reflects a higher mix of sales from the Food Processing segment at a comparatively lower margin.
Sales at the Food Processing Equipment Group comprised approximately 23% of total sales in the quarter as compared to 13.5% in the prior year quarter. Within the individual segments, the Commercial Foodservice segment remained relatively consistent in gross margin as compared to the prior year at 40.5% during the quarter while the Food Processing segment recorded an increase of approximately 1.5% to 34.4%, reflecting improvement in operating efficiencies, offset in part by lower margin at the newly-acquired companies.
In the upcoming quarters, we anticipate the Food Processing business will continue to represent a comparatively higher portion of sales due to the recent acquisitions, which will impact the overall gross margin. However, we anticipate continued long-term improvement in the margins at the segment as we realize the benefit of business integration initiatives.
Selling and distribution expenses during the quarter increased $1.4 million to $26 million as compared to $24.6 million in the prior year quarter. Selling expenses in the quarter included approximately $2.5 million of additional expense from acquisitions not included in the prior year results.
Excluding the incremental expense of acquisitions, selling cost decreased approximately $1.1 million due to lower costs associated with timing of various trade show and marketing programs.
General and administrative expenses increased by $1.5 million to $27.1 million as compared to $25.6 million in the prior year quarter. General expenses include approximately $3.1 million of additional expense related to acquisitions not included in the prior year quarter, offset in part by lower stock compensation and leverage of general and administrative expenses over the greater combined company.
Other nonoperating expenses amounted to $2.8 million in the quarter and were higher than normal during the period. These expenses related primarily to foreign exchange losses. During the quarter, we realized losses on current period foreign exchange positions while offsetting gains on longer-term balance sheet positions were realized as an increase directly to equity through the currency translation account. As the scope of our international operations has increased, we anticipate the P&L impact of exchange exposures may be more significant than in prior years. However, we also anticipate they will be less than in the current period and gains and losses will naturally offset in the financial statements to a greater extent.

A Dry, Fast and Brutal Test
Muirfield Continues to Humble The Field and Favor Veterans
Gullane, Scotland
Competing in the British Open is a high-anxiety enterprise. That's part of the point of a major—to test the players' mental mettle as much as their technique. But through two rounds of this year's edition, the stress and frustration levels are higher than ever.
The Muirfield links, by definition windy, seaside and largely treeless, are as brown, baked and bounding as at any Open since Hoylake in 2006. Unlike at that event, which Tiger Woods won deploying his driver only once, the rough at Muirfield is more severe and the greens are faster. Phil Mickelson said the greens are running quicker than those at Augusta. Brandt Snedeker said the fairways in spots are running at 15 feet on the Stimpmeter. That also is faster than the greens at Augusta.
Wind-aided five-iron shots here are rolling out to 300 yards, often in unpredictable directions. The greens are so slick that world No. 2 Rory McIlroy putted into a bunker en route to his disastrous 79 Thursday, while Mickelson and Snedeker, among the world's top short-game artists, both three-putted from 4 feet in the late going Friday. For Mickelson, that third putt (on the 16th) was actually his fourth on the hole.
But just getting within putting distance is a huge challenge. "I don't know what you're supposed to do to hit a green," Snedeker said. "It's beyond anything I've ever played in."
The R&A, which puts on British Opens, is actually rather pleased with the way Muirfield is playing. "We've got the conditions here that we really like to have: hard, fast, running conditions," said Chief Executive Peter Dawson. This year's Open, unusual because of the preceding fortnight of heat and no rain, is links golf carried to the nth degree.
It's the ultimate test of both golf and character, more so even than all but a few U.S. Opens, traditionally considered the toughest of golf's four majors. The U.S. Open tests specific shots with outcomes, but the British Open tests best-guess shots whose known outcomes are dicey even when the player hits exactly the shot he wants. It requires a mind-set that only experience and deep self-confidence can supply.
At the end of Friday's play, Miguel Ángel Jiménez of Spain held the lead at three under par, after shooting an even-par round of 71. That's two strokes back from Zach Johnson's five-under-par lead after shooting 66 in round one.
Four players are tied at one shot behind Jiménez, at two under par: Tiger Woods, who shot 71 Friday, Dustin Johnson (72), Lee Westwood of England (68, tied for low round of the day with Charl Schwartzel) and Henrik Stenson of Sweden (70).
Zach Johnson shot 75 Friday, which wasn't a bad score in the afternoon breezes. He stands at one under par, tied for sixth with three others: Martin Laird of Scotland, Ángel Cabrera of Argentina and Rafael Cabrera-Bello of Spain.
You may notice something peculiar about the leaderboard: no talented young whippersnappers in the lot. Jiménez is 49. Westwood is 40. Woods and Stenson, aka the Iceman, are 37. Dustin Johnson is 29, but an experienced 29 with seven PGA Tour victories and lots of experience contending in majors. Muirfield shows signs of conforming to its history, where Open winners have included Walter Hagen, Gary Player, Jack Nicklaus, Lee Trevino, Tom Watson, Nick Faldo (twice) and Ernie Els. The average age of those tied at one under par is 35.
The pros, even the pros on the European Tour, don't play much links golf. Except at the British Open and for some a few other events, they play on lush courses and can control, with spin and trajectory, how their balls react when they land.
"This is a different style of golf," Watson, the five-time British Open champion, told me after his round Friday (he missed the cut, at 11 over par). "You don't play by the yardages. You have to play by feel. That's the beauty of this type of golf, but I hated it when I first played it. It took me four years before I began to understand that you have to have a different mind-set. You can only take what the course gives you."
Young hotshots, even the most talented ones, have a hard time adjusting. And sometimes even the veterans vent their frustration after a hard day on an Open links.
"I just made two bogeys from the middle of the bloody fairway," Ernie Els said after his round Friday, very testily for someone whose nickname is the Big Easy. Last year's British Open champion shot 74-74 to make the eight-over-par cut by two strokes. "I love links golf, and I'm trying to be as positive as I can, but for some reason—I guess I got all my breaks last year—I'm not getting anything, and it's very frustrating."
Watson understands. "Links golf works on your mind differently," he said. "You hit the shots here not really knowing what's going to happen to your ball. In the U.S. Open, you know what's going to happen to your ball, but here you have to play with uncertainty, and that's the difference. Do you have to be tougher to deal with that? Maybe so. Sometimes that uncertainty can get to you, and the frustration will kick in."
Mickelson, after his four-putt on the 16th Friday, demonstrated the kind of self-control that links golf requires. He parred the 17th and managed a par on 18, despite hitting into a steep-faced fairway bunker with his drive, to salvage a 74 and one-over-par total. That leaves him only four off the lead, well in contention.
"I fought hard today. I putted phenomenal. I made everything," he said immediately after his round. Say what? The short putt he missed on 16, he explained, was the type of putt everyone was missing Friday. "I just didn't play for enough break on the direct crosswind. That's something you don't see on TV, because you can't tell which way the wind is blowing." The missed comebacker took the wind hard, too.
When asked if Friday's round was the toughest grind the players have ever had to deal with, he said, "Yeah, I definitely would not disagree with that." But nothing about his demeanor seemed defeated.
The key for him to win? "Two-putting from 60 to 100 feet, around that range, is going to be important, and making those six-footers and 12-footers, those really big par saves," he said.
Mickelson, despite his lack of success in British Opens, clearly understands what links golf is all about. With 33 players bunched within six of the lead, only the tough will survive.

Hence, if a new shooter in order to make a whole decision of finding a best air rifle matching their needs is easier, if he or she understands the few basic still vital considerations that will help them to determine which model of the rifle will be helpful for them.
Understanding the intend usage
One can question themselves regarding what is the purpose of getting an air rifle as based upon the answer only, they can pick a choice. So, if they sure about their intended use of buying an air rifle, it becomes easy to choose the apt designed model of gun. For an instance, few models of air rifles are generally designed in such a way that it suits for general shooting and there are more complexly designed for hunting and target shooting on competitions. It may be true to an extent, that any sort of air rifle can be used for any purpose, still experienced air rifle users understand better that it is always important to purchase a rifle that is specially designed for a specific purpose. For more details regarding it, one can check it out http://airriflecenter.com.
How far will one expect to shoot?
Most types of air rifles are categorized generally under four power heads, namely light, medium, High, and Super-Magnum. Super-Magnum category rifles are otherwise referred as specialty rifles. Generally, most of the manufacturers combine both magnum and super-magnum rifles as one and the same as a high power category.
Light powered air rifles are great choice for target shooting, lightly pest control and plinking to approximately 35 yards. So, for such purposes, light powered air rifles are the best choice to pick. It is not so that it works well for plinking and for target shooting at any distance, still it performs best for about 35 yards roughly. Medium powered air rifles will extend power till 50 yards approximately. Whereas, in case of magnum rifles it works best till 65 yards range and when comes about super-magnum rifles, they extend till 75- 80 yards roughly. So, just by understanding the expected shooting distance to be covered, it enables a shooter to pick a choice that fit their needs.
Other considerations
If one is capable of answering these two above questions, then it becomes easy for them to narrow down their search of finding right air rifle. In case if a person is planning to get a pest control to a maximum distance of 40 yards, a medium powered air gun will be an ideal option, with proper ample power to do the task picture perfect. Apart from these two consideration, one can look for gun type, class of the bluing, overall looks of the gun, and other cosmetic factors.
Buying Ultra High Power Air Rifles
If you are looking for an air rifle that does not give out a loud bang and is to be used in a small hunting game, pest control or for long range target shooting; the more appropriate piece for you will be the pellet rifle for an adult with large caliber and is high powered. While BB guns are a great choice for your kids, these are not the type for you. You would be in need of a rifle that is high powered top quality with large caliber for precise pellet shooting. Read some reviews before you choose the best quality high power air rifle for your needs.
Top notch adult air rifles can give out very powerful shots that are capable to kill a small game. They are quiet guns which shoot precisely packing a punch of up to 50 yards. They can shoot pellets accelerating at 900fps. There are many top quality air rifles available where you can choose from. Your purpose for buying a high powered rifle will determine the most suitable large caliber rifle or which precision pellet gun for target shooting is more appropriate for you.
It does not necessarily mean that a higher velocity means a more powerful rifle. This is not always the case. But this is one factor that you still need to consider when looking for an air adult rifle. The pellet that you use also needs to be considered. For instance, lead alloys have a slower velocity than the alloy pellets. When your air rifle can give out a loud bang that is capable of breaking the sound barrier as well as able to produce a velocity of 1300fps, this is powerful. By changing the pellet type that you use, you could make short range become an accurate long range flier.
Modern air rifles are also suitable for a number of small hunting games as well as pest control purposes. For pests like rats, crows and squirrels, a rifle that can come up with a velocity of 1,000 fps using calibers .177 – .22 are much better. On the other hand, for a small hunting game which consist of a raccoon-sized target, the more appropriate calibers are between .20 – .25. In any hunting case, heeding the precise range of the rifle which is usually below 30 yards, assuming shots are properly in placed will result to a humane kill.
One good way to home sight is bore-sighting. The more appropriate rifle here is the break barrel. The barrel needs to be broken in a little so you can look down at your gun's barrel and aim it at the fixed target. Do not attempt to look down the end of your gun's barrel, because you might injure your eye. After deciding and aiming at the target using the barrel, view the sights, lining them up as you keep the gun's barrel pointing at your target.
Competitions and professional target shooting began to be so popular in many countries though they only achieved momentum in America these last few decades. Several target shooting disciplines and contests are being held locally every year. There are also competitions on the state levels as well as on the national levels.

Winter!: Prepare for holiday gaming!
A rather unique character, and style of gameplay. The avatar you play as, makes him versatile in all the different aspects he is needed for, he almost reminds me of the Master Hand in Super Smash Bros: aside from the eyes and actually being smaller than the Master Hand. The gameplay was rather simple and there wasn't much of a story, but it does have plenty of gameplay.

James 1:2-4 (NLT)
Dear brothers and sisters, when troubles of any kind come your way, consider it an opportunity for great joy. For you know that when your faith is tested, your endurance has a chance to grow. So let it grow, for when your endurance is fully developed, you will be perfect and complete, needing nothing.
When the oncologist came for the initial consult with our son, it was the morning after we had received the devastating news that the tumor hidden away in his nasopharyngeal cavity was in fact cancerous. I will not bore you with the traumatic and devastating details of such a moment, but instead talk about the morning after. When you survey your life from a different perspective adopting a title never considered before. I am the mother of a cancer patient which is nothing that I have ever aspired to be yet God in His Infinite and Divine Wisdom knowing all the days of my life somehow empowered me to carry this role to completion. He sees something in me that I did not realize was there and am still trying to fully discover. On that morning, the man who walked wore a smart bow tie, very studious glasses and relayed information like a college professor discussing the etiology and progression of the disease, as well as, treatment plan. He asked if our son had any questions and he did – just one. How? How could he get cancer with no risk factors? He never smoked or drank. He was not of Asian descent and never lived overseas and hates fish. (The most common population who gets this kind of cancer at this age.) Nothing fit into his logical mind about how this developed. Our son is a very scientific and mathematical thinker who needs logic to understand. His question came across as curiosity rather than some sort of accusation. The doctor did not hesitate in answering. He told him that everybody goes through "that thing" in their life. It has nothing to do with them and is not about them but comes with the package. It is up to us as individuals what we do with "that thing" and how we allow it to impact our life. The doctor told our son that this was "that thing" and that once he overcame it nothing would stop him again.
I am not really sure why his words came back to me today as I sought the Lord about "that thing" again. But I believe the secret to understanding "that thing" is found in James 1:2-4. When troubles of any kind come your way, consider it an opportunity for great joy. Raise your hand today if you would rejoice if the doctor told you that you or a loved one had cancer. Don't worry I didn't rejoice either. The message though is clear that we will have troubles in this world. The promise attached to the declaration is what we must take hold of – every trail you face is an opportunity for joy in your life. Like you, I wish a kind "no thanks" would ward off the "opportunity" of trial by fire but it does not. I also wish that once you were saved all of our problems melted away in the same sea of forgetfulness as our sin. It just doesn't work that way. The thing you are going through today may be that thing that has the potential to change your life for the better forever. Our faith must be tested for validity due to the fickleness of the human heart. When faith endures and is fully developed we are complete and need nothing more than Jesus Christ. You will never trust the Lord with your whole life including everything and everyone in it until you apply faith to that thing, endure that thing until you overcome that thing.
John 16:33 (AMP)
I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have [perfect] peace and confidence. In the world you have tribulation and trials and distress and frustration; but be of good cheer [take courage; be confident, certain, undaunted]! For I have overcome the world. [I have deprived it of power to harm you and have conquered it for you.]
Perfect peace and confidence is not easily attained. I know a great deal of people who would say today that they trust the Lord with their life but until you walk to the line of now and forever either personally or with a loved one – it is very hard to tell. The world is full of tribulation, trials, distress, and frustration. The key is in the next part of the verse – "but be of good cheer, take courage, be confident, certain and undaunted." Bad things happen to good people. Sin is rampant. Love has grown cold. This world is not the environment created by God but is subject to the darkness that prevails here. You live in the world but are a product of God so you will always long for a perfect life. It is innate. Jesus Christ overcame the world including that thing that appears to be destroying your life. It may be actually tearing about this life, but the Lord promises that He will give you a much better one in return for the broken pieces of this one. All you need is faith. He has given us a measure of faith (Romans 12:2) to use to begin to cultivate all that He has for us. But until you believe that Jesus Christ accomplished everything that He promised to do on the Cross enough to live like it trials will produce sorrow rather than peace and joy. As we learn to hold out longer and longer by faith, endurance produces confidence in our life. Jesus Christ deprived the world (including its ruler) of his power to harm you. He went before you and conquered the enemy. Faith allows us to walk in victory when all hell seems to be breaking loose in our life. It is the foundation that keeps us safe and secure so the storm does not tear us apart. You will never know if you have faith unless it is tested by that thing you fear the most. Fear is a predator of faith. It will consume your faith if given the opportunity sowing seeds of doubt rather than confident hope. We must learn by faith to identify "that thing" in our life as an opportunity rather than a tragedy. We must learn to hold fast to hope and not the situation at hand. We must identify with God our Father and not become associated with the trial we are facing. This too shall pass…it really will. It is up to you what you end up with when it's over.
I Peter 1:5-7 (AMP)
Who are being guarded (garrisoned) by God's power through [your] faith [till you fully inherit that final] salvation that is ready to be revealed [for you] in the last time. [You should] be exceedingly glad on this account, though now for a little while you may be distressed by trials and suffer temptations, so that [the genuineness] of your faith may be tested, [your faith] which is infinitely more precious than the perishable gold which is tested and purified by fire. [This proving of your faith is intended] to redound to [your] praise and glory and honor when Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One) is revealed.
If you have accepted Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior of your life, you are under being guarded. The Holy Spirit lives inside of you. His angels are positioned all around you. God's Power is in full effect because by faith you have accepted the role of righteousness offered at the Cross and returned to your Heavenly Father. Nothing can every separate you from His Love. His Goodness and Unfailing Love pursue you every single day. He leaves new mercies on your doorstep each morning to make sure that your right standing remains intact. God is doing everything that He can to massage and mature your faith to confident hope that will endure to the end. I know many people who have lost loved ones or have been hurt so badly that they slam close the door to their heart and shut out the Lord. God didn't do all those awful things. It broke His Heart to see it happen. But He cannot make His Goodness come forth unless you remain connected to Him by faith allowing your hope to keep grow in the midst of sadness, sorrow and setbacks. We have shut God out of our government, schools, businesses, home, friendships including most of our life only reserving Sunday, occasional Wednesdays, and certain holidays for worship. We through the Word of God on a shelf like an emergency handbook. Most Christians only pray, study the Word and act right in church forgetting whose Name they bear in the world. But when tragedy comes and that thing is bearing down on us – those same people cannot figure out why God has not busted down the door to rescue, heal and deliver them. Probably because we are the ones holding it shut and the Lord would never harm His Beloved. Faith is tested by the fire of refinement for genuineness. Each trail reveals any impurity so it can be removed. With each test, our faith grows stronger and more developed. In doing so, we produce a hope that is confident and sure. Is the Lord working to prove your faith today? What is that thing you are going through? Did you know that His Grace is always sufficient for you and that thing?
2 Corinthians 12:8-10 (NLT)
Three different times I begged the Lord to take it away. Each time he said, "My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness." So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through me. That's why I take pleasure in my weaknesses, and in the insults, hardships, persecutions, and troubles that I suffer for Christ. For when I am weak, then I am strong.
I would be a liar to say that I have only asked the Lord to remove cancer from our life three times. I have begged, pleaded, cried, ranted, and bargained to have this removed from our life permanently. It just didn't work. At some point, the Lord put this image of a marathon in my head. The more that I prayed about it the more an image of a runner wearing my Nikes running a course. Not just any course, but one with rocks and rough terrain. Each footfall producing a dust cloud. At some point rather than quitting and giving up (or being rescued and/or immediately delivered) I figured out that I have been ordained and commissioned to finish the race. But Lord, I am not a runner. You are now! My grace is all that you need. My power works best in weakness. Once you decide that everything you want, need and desire comes from Jesus Christ – you will pursue Him wholeheartedly. Most people will not do that until every other person and thing in their life proves ineffective and useless. It is at the point of total and utter devastation and weakness that we are willing to relinquish control of our life to the Lord and follow His Ways. If we can get by on our own, than that is exactly what our human nature will press for us to do. What is your greatest weakness? Is it your spouse? Your singleness? Your children? Your job? Your social life? The list goes on and on. Our weaknesses are the most vulnerable points of attack in our life. My children were my "everything" for my whole life. When my life plan did not turn out as planned or expected, rather than clinging to Jesus Christ – I held on to them. It became my life mission to be the best mom that I could be. It was a source of pride so that even if I failed at every other endeavor in life that I knew I could love and take care of my kids. That is until cancer came calling – it is was in one swift act that my life came crashing down around me. How can I be a good mother but not save my own child? I can't but Jesus can. See the transition of faith that is taking place, I can no longer trust myself or anyone else with my children's wellbeing and salvation so now I must turn them over to the Lord. Whoa! Holy Transformation! Now that I no longer bear the responsibility, I can experience the full privileges of His Grace as God is now free to work His Plan in their lives without my intervention and interruptions. The Power of Christ is manifest in us by faith and confident hope that comes from the sufficiency of His Grace. You must be weak to become strong. Your faith must be tested to be found true. You must endure to be made complete lacking no good thing. Are you up to the test today? Don't worry! You don't have to be because His Grace is sufficiency for thee.
I Peter 4:12-13 (NLT)
Dear friends, don't be surprised at the fiery trials you are going through, as if something strange were happening to you. Instead, be very glad—for these trials make you partners with Christ in his suffering, so that you will have the wonderful joy of seeing his glory when it is revealed to all the world.
The enemy is like a roaring lion seeking whoever he can devour. He is a toothless, clawless, harmless, and powerless housecat who can do nothing more than hiss at his victims. But let me tell you that "hiss" can be very intimidating. There was a news story not so long ago about a cat that held its family hostage in a bedroom until they called 911 to come help them. Seriously, a housecat come on people. Fear seems so big when in reality it is nothing more than a hiss or roar. Do you run from lions roaring in the zoo? Of course not. They are surrounded by a cage, glass or high exhibit walls that act as a barrier so they cannot harm us. The Love of God surrounds us and protects us. We have nothing to fear the moment that thing hits our life. It is the declaration of our God that there are better days ahead if we are willing to apply faith to the situation, allow confident hope to develop by choosing to endure until His Glory meets us in that place. You will wait for someone that you know is coming. You have faith in them and confidence in their arrival. Joy in anticipation. Peace that they will not let you down. People will always fall short of our expectation but not the Lord. He is coming to meet you and accompany you through that thing. Just call out His Name, grab hold of faith and be confident. Three years and five relapses since the doctor imparted these words of profound wisdom, I can look over at our son who is being filled with chemotherapy and know that God is good! I have complete and total peace. My heart is secure. Not because we have escaped hardship, not because the trial has passed or even that remission is for sure – no I am happy because my faith in God has proven valid, my hope in Him secure as we learn to endure. This thing that we are going through was not part of God's Plan but He made provision for me anyway by giving me His Riches at Christ's Expense. Isn't that what grace is all about! So today as you face that thing – remember that there is great joy ahead. Peace that passes all understanding will meet you on the way. Most importantly, there is nothing that can every separate you from the Love of God!
Romans 8:38-39 (NLT)
And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God's love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God's love. No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord.

I am in my mid 20's and I first fell in love with tea when I was twelve. I believe it all begin with my grandmother, she only believed in natural home remedies,so anything herbal was her first choice. At a young age I was taught to only drink natural waters, such as watermelon, melon,etc. made at home, and if you happen to be sick grandma' was the first person you visited. Those up bringing have stuck with me, and now, all you will ever catch me drinking is water, natural waters, or tea
I am 33 and love all types of tea. I am excited to do the swap. I love trying new teas. Thank you all for having me.

Sean Carton | July 6, 2009 | Comments
Experiments on the bleeding edge of augmented reality offer us a window into the future when the "real" and the "virtual" become indistinguishable.
You might remember the buzz GE generated back in March with the release of its SmartGrid Windmill Technology augmented reality ad. If not, check out the links and watch the video, because descriptions don't do it justice.
But if you're too lazy, here's the skinny: if you printed out a sheet of paper with special markings and held it up to the Web cam, you'd be gifted with a 3D animation that magically "unfolded" from the paper (at least in the view you saw through your computer screen). It was pretty jaw-droppingly cool and smart: when you were done playing, you ended up with a printed ad on your real-world desktop.
While still in its infancy, augmented reality (define) is a new technology that makes you begin to understand the potential for the blurring between the "real world" and "cyberspace." It's actually been around for quite a while.
Depending on your definition, it's existed at least since 1992 when first used at Boeing to help technicians assemble aircraft cables. Now that Web cams and location-aware camera phones are ubiquitous, augmented reality is beginning to make the leap from techie gee-whiz toy to something with broad commercial appeal -- and offers some pretty exciting possibilities for marketing.
Augmented Reality: Real-World Examples
It's kind of amazing how this technology is already being used to promote products.
Eminem's promoting a new album. The U.S. Postal Service has a pretty nifty (though in my experience pretty buggy) augmented reality application that enables you see if your shipment will fit into one of its mailing boxes. Topps allows you to "play with" 3D replicas of ballplayers on your physical desktop. Ray-Ban lets you "virtually" try out its sunglasses, and hardcore Trekkers can Experience the Enterprise simply by printing out a paper "trigger" and holding it up to their Webcams.
It ain't the Holodeck (define), but it's still pretty cool.
When Augmented Reality Apps Go Mobile
While most of these nifty toys will quickly lose their appeal (except for the Ray-Ban application, which actually might help sell quite a few pairs of sunglasses), the real cutting-edge action is happening on mobile devices, such as the iPhone or Google's Android phone. In most cases, these applications take advantage of the phone's location-awareness to provide a virtual "window" into the real world that's overlaid with information about what you're looking at.
Wikitude AR is probably one of the best known (and one of the first) examples of this kind of augmented reality application. Hold your phone up to a building in the "real world," look through your phone's screen, get a whole bunch of information about what you're looking at. It's pretty amazing.
IBM is working on a similar commercial augmented reality app called Seer that provides context-based information about businesses and buildings.
Layar, billed as the world's first mobile augmented reality browser, represents one of the most interesting developments in augmented reality. Layar considers itself a Web browser with an open API; companies can create their own "layers" that provide information about physical spaces when people point their Layar-equipped mobile devices at them.
Rather than create a proprietary database of locations, Layar has the potential to open up the world of augmented reality to any company that wants to play. Think old-school AOL's walled garden (AR up to now) vs. the wide-open Web.
What's more, the explosion of location-aware apps since the iPhone's arrival suggests that consumers use their phone to get information about what they're interested in and where they happen to be. Considering the popularity of next-generation mobile devices (such as the iPhone or phones running Android), it seems like we're approaching critical mass.
The main problem is content. If the city where you try to use your augmented reality app doesn't have augmented reality information in the database, the app is useless.
Open systems like Layar offer the potential to change that. But unless it's adopted as an open standard (or some big carriers get behind it and sink in the dough to build its database and solicit "Layers" from local businesses), adoption might be slow to non-existent.
Bringing Augmented Reality Back to Earth
Another factor: the interfaces available to access mobile applications involving augmented reality. While some of us might be able to handle the geekiness of walking around in strange cities holding our phones up in front of our faces, it's questionable whether most consumers will be OK doing the same thing.
Wearable transparent screens would be the best solution. For now, most are incredibly expensive and make you look either like a welder or a cyborg. (Note to product designers: why can't you folks make electronic-enhanced eyewear that doesn't look like it should be worn by X-treme sports d00dZ or sci-fi geeks.
If past technologies are any indication, we'll get to the point where augmented reality goggles are as comfortable (and -- please -- stylish) as regular eyeglasses. The popularity of portable video and audio (and new technologies such as transparent OLEDs make it a given that there will eventually be light, cheap, wearable displays for consumers.
Already, the desktop is disappearing and more people are getting used to the "real world" and the "virtual world" blurring together via their mobile devices. Already the lines between what counts as "online" and "traditional" advertising are going away. Experiments on the bleeding edge of augmented reality offer us a window into the future when the "real" and the "virtual" become indistinguishable.
And that's when things are really going to get interesting.

Introduction / History
The Mountain Jews have inhabited the North Caucasus region since the 5th century. The Mountain Jews community originated from Ancient Persia and their language, Juhuri is an ancient Southwest Iranian language and a Persian dialect which uses many elements of Ancient Hebrew.
Where Are they Located?
By early 17th century, Mountain Jews formed many small settlements throughout the mountain valleys of Dagestan. During the 18th–19th century, they resettled from the highlands to the coastal lowlands but carried the name "Mountain Jews" with them. By 1926, more than 85% of Mountain Jews in Dagestan were already classed as urban. Mountain Jews were mainly concentrated in the cities of Makhachkala, Buynaksk, Derbent, Nalchik and Grozny in North Caucasus. With changing economic and political realities following the dissolution of the Soviet Union, many Mountain Jews permanently left their hometowns in the Caucasus and relocated to Moscow or abroad. The community has been particularly affected by First Chechen War that saw high incidence of kidnappings and violence at the hands of militants against the local Jewish community. Today, a notable number of Mountain Jews reside in Israel and United States.
What Are Their Lives Like?
The Mountain Jews live in the mountainous Caucasus area of Russia, where they have lived peacefully with their Muslim neighbors for many years. Their culture contains a mixture of Caucasus and Jewish elements and their language, which is in danger of being lost, is a dialect of ancient Iranian that integrates Hebrew elements. The Mountain Jews celebrate Jewish holidays and the Sabbath, and the synagogue is the center of Jewish community. They have their own traditional music, dances and foods, which portrays the mix of Caucasian and Jewish culture. These traditions are what bind the Mountain Jews together as they seek to preserve their culture and religion.
Prayer Points
* Pray that the Mountain Jews would know that Jesus is the True Messiah and Savior of the world.
* Ask the Lord to soften the hearts of the Jews towards Christians so that they might hear and receive the message of Jesus Christ.
* Ask God to preserve the culture and language of the Mountain Jews so that this people will worship the One True God together.
* Pray that God will use the Mountain Jews' friendly relations with their Muslim neighbors for His good purposes so that ultimately both peoples will together worship, serve, and share Christ.
* Pray that God would open the hearts of the Mountain Jews to Christians and to the Good News of Jesus.

Professional Ratings: 90 Wine Spectator
Region: Oregon
Varietal: Pinot Noir
Other Info: Screw Cap Wines
Style: Earthy & Spicy
Item no. 120996
#55 Wine Spectator Top 100 of 2013
Elegant and complex aromas of bing cherries, cranberries, red currants, raspberries and strawberries, a combination of wild flowers and fresh forest berries that epitomize Oregon Pinot Noir. The juicy red fruit flavors open the attack then evolve in the mouth to darker fruit flavors with spice and mineral overtones. The wine shows ripe tannins and a succulent texture that give definition and lift to the surprisingly long finish. Although the 2010 A to Z Pinot Noir is drinking well now, it has the focus, balance and intensity to age and will become more complex over the next 5-10 years.
Sleek and tightly packed, with delicate layers of cherry, tobacco and cocoa flavors mingling against refined tannins, persisting pleasantly on the light-stepping finish. Drink now through 2017.
