Publisher's Description
Tozer on the Almighty God by A.W. Tozer is a 366-day devotional that dwells on the awesomeness of the Almighty God and His manifest glory. God's awesomeness is often brought out in human speech with the verbal expression of oath taking. Human vocabulary is far too humble and insufficient to properly articulate the words upon being touched by the Spirit of God Almighty. The power of God is awesome, vast and incomprehensible. This 366-day devotional will help to acquaint you with the complexity of God's character and the power of His grace. In order to satisfy your hunger for a genuine encounter with the Creator, Tozer says there must be humility of spirit. He reminds us of our need for humility when he says that Jesus was "bruised and wounded for our iniquities." The penalty paid on the cross was great, and our love for Him should reflect that. Tozer's daily meditations in this book challenge the believer to become more acquainted with the Triune God and His mysterious ways. He inspires the reader to repent to restore the Divine love in our hearts, as well as worship him constantly! Tozer proclaims the mercy of God, saying that God is love who ever does us good!

Well done, it is a "must have" for anyone. There are codes at the end of each devotion, they refer to the book, and the page (s) it came from. Extremely helpful. Can be a little "deep," not recommended for someone under the age of 14-16, though could be adapted. Glad I bought it. I use it for devotion time at work, my staff regularly ask for "Tozer." Wouldn't mind seeing it hard-back.

Benedict Quartsin4 Stars Out Of 5February 22, 2010Benedict QuartsinI bought the entire series of the donut man for my 5 year old. I was afraid that she might find it dated and boring but she didn't notice all that. She enjoys watching it and it keeps her busy. Good buy.
Stephanie Ostrander5 Stars Out Of 5December 31, 2008Stephanie OstranderThe Donut Man movies are very fun to watch and the music is great. I wish that they would make more movies like these for kids today. Kids ages 1-8 are guaranteed to love them. This one is great for boys as they enjoy the baseball episode especially. It does deal a bit with the issue of divorce so you may want to be aware of this. There is a boy on the baseball team whose father is not living at home anymore. The Donut Man communicates love to the boy and that everyone is still his friend. The zoo one is very cute and deals with how God cares for us and how we need to care for animals and others, especially younger siblings.

SEATTLE — A state lawmaker said Sunday he was just engaging in some sports trash talk when he called Arizona a "racist wasteland."
State Rep. Joe Fitzgibbon, D-Burien, made his comment on Twitter after the Seattle Seahawks lost to the Arizona Cardinals. Fitzgibbon later deleted his message and said in an interview that people were taking his trash talk a little too seriously.
"If folks are going to take that too seriously, then I'm sorry about that," Fitzgibbon said.
Still, Fitzgibbon said people in Washington "have not appreciated" how Arizona has treated immigrants, particularly citing a 2010 immigration law that was subject to a legal challenge from the federal government. He said Arizona leaders need to look at changing laws that he says amount to racial profiling. One of the 2010 Arizona law's requirements is that officers, while enforcing other laws, question the immigration status of those suspected of being in the country illegally.
The Cardinals' 17-10 win Sunday in Seattle kept Arizona's postseason hopes alive while snapping the Seahawks' 14-game home win streak. Fitzgibbon's comment was posted shortly after the game.

General Motors India on Tuesday said it will raise the prices of its entire range of vehicles by up to Rs 10,000 from first week of June to offset the increase in logistic costs following hike in diesel rates.
"With diesel prices going up on regular intervals, transportation and other logistic costs have gone up significantly. We are left with no option, but to pass on the burden partially to consumers," General Motors India Vice President P Balendran said.
The company will raise the prices of its entire range of vehicles from first week of June, he added.
"We are yet to finalise the exact amount, but it will be up to 1.5 per cent, which will be around Rs 10,000, depending upon different models and their variants," Mr Balendran said.
GM India's small car Spark is currently available for Rs 3.31-4.15 lakh. Another small car Beat is offered between Rs 3.88 lakh and Rs 5.97 lakh.
The company's latest offering multi-purpose vehicle 'Enjoy' is sold at Rs 5.49-8 lakh, while the multi-utility vehicle Tavera's price starts at Rs 6.88 lakh and goes up to Rs 10.84 lakh.
Since January this year, the state-owned oil firms had been mandated to raise prices by up to 50 paisa per litre every month till entire losses on the fuel are wiped out.
In this month, diesel prices were hiked by Rs 1.02 per litre, the fourth increase in rates this year. Earlier, diesel prices were raised by 45 paisa in March, excluding VAT.
Similar hikes had taken place in January and February, but prices were not changed in April when Parliament's Budget session was on.

Is it being canceled or on hiatus? Just wondering since I will be traveling there at the end of November.
Is it being canceled or on hiatus? Just wondering since I will be traveling there at the end of November.
They just casted for another year (through 2014) so no, thankfully, it's not closing! I'm not quite sure why it's down in November, maybe for a refurb?
The rumor mill has been saying that the flying carpet is coming back in November..maybe it is going down for that.
Here you leave today and enter the world of yesterday, tomorrow, and fantasy.
We're going on the 3rd and the DLR website shows Aladdin is playing that day.
The calendar is indeed frustrating. It wasn't until just this week that the actual attractions, etc. were listed on the calendar for the beginning of November.
The calendar seems to show it playing through Nov. 15th, then taking 10 days off before returning on the 26th.
I hope that is the case, we are heading there for Thanksgiving and wanted to catch it at least once on our 4 day trip. But I am torn, because if it was going to close to add the flying carpet back in that would be great too!
Here you leave today and enter the world of yesterday, tomorrow, and fantasy.
Well, I learned my lesson. I just checked again and Aladdin is listed for everyday during November as of today. I checked everyday for a week before I posted this and the day of or after I post they update the website... funny! That's a huge relief for me. I hope they are bringing the flying carpet back as I've never seen it but heard good things about it.
Does anyone know if they water show with Goofy still goes on at DCA? I don't see that listed too and I'm wondering if it was just a summer thing.
As much as I love Aladdin, I love the show so MUCH. But, I feel like its time to go... it's been there for....quite a while. I would love to see some new shows added, like Golden Mickeys or Hercules, or Tangled? Anything really, just a new change. But like I said I love Aladdin...

National Bank of Kuwait
|Consortium of Kuwaiti merchants
|Kuwait City, Kuwait
|$2.22 billion USD (2013)
|$1.49 billion USD (2013)
|$844 million USD (2013)
The National Bank of Kuwait (NBK) was incorporated in 1952 as the first local bank and the first shareholding company in Kuwait and the Gulf region.
History and profile[edit]
Foundation of National Bank of Kuwait started in 1952 when a prominent Kuwaiti merchant went to the British Bank of the ME to open a Letter of Guarantee for the amount of 10,000 Indian Rupees, (which is equivalent today to 750 KD). Much to his surprise, his request was rejected, on the condition he provides a guarantor. This well-known merchant was shocked and appalled by the treatment that he had received, and news of this was all over town. This incident gave rise to the question and the idea of having a national bank with a mission to serve the national needs as its priority, help the economic growth of the country, and look after the savings of its clients. In fact, a meeting was held with the late Amir of Kuwait,Abdullah Al Salem Al Sabah, who congratulated them on the idea and promised them his complete support. An Amiri decree was issued on 19 May 1952 to establish the National Bank of Kuwait, and NBK started operating through a small branch on 15 November 1952 within a total space of three shops and a handful of employees relying on traditional and manual banking tools. Today NBK is one of the largest and most profitable banks in the region.
NBK reported net profits of USD 844 million (KD238.1 million) in 2013. Today, NBK, which is the largest financial institution in Kuwait with effective market dominance in the commercial banking market, boasts the largest presence in Kuwait with 67 branches, which together with its growing international representation adds up to more than 163 branches worldwide. NBK also stands out in terms of its local and international network, which includes branches, subsidiaries and representative offices in Geneva, London, Paris, New York, Singapore, and China, alongside its regional presence in Lebanon, Jordan, Iraq, Egypt, Bahrain, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, UAE, and Turkey.
- Bank Boubyan is 58.6% owned by the Bank. It was established in 2004.
- NBK (International) PLC (United Kingdom) is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Bank with two offices in London and one is Paris which provides retail, private and corporate banking, treasury and trade finance related services.
•NBK (Lebanon) S.A.L. (Lebanon) is 85.5% owned by the Bank and provides retail, commercial and private banking and real estate related services through a network of ten branches.
- NBK Banque Privee (Suisse) S.A. (Switzerland) is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Bank headquartered in Geneva. In addition to traditional banking services, it provides portfolio management services, family trust, advisory and custody services to individuals with high net worth.
- Credit Bank of Iraq S.A. (Iraq) is 75% owned by the Bank and provides retail and commercial banking services through a network of fourteen branches in Iraq.

It has a network of many branches and service centers, and ATMs in strategic locations throughout Qatar. It offers a range of corporate, private and retail banking products and services.
- Turkish Bank is 30% owned by the Bank.
NBK International Advisory Board[edit]
NBK was the first bank in the Middle East to establish an international advisory board, setting a precedent for banks and financial institutions in the region. The Bank's International Advisory Board, which was established in 2007, brings together an impressive array of distinguished world figures in the fields of politics, economics and business and the Bankers' Roundtable has evolved into a significant subgroup in its own right, comprising the banking and financial specialist contingent of the parent Advisory Board.

So who was the AL's best shortstop this year?
Oct 21, 2010, 6:30 PM EDT
In announcing their annual awards Wednesday, The Sporting News declared Alexei Ramirez the shortstop on the American League All-Star team. It's a choice that will probably surprise a lot of people, but the AL shortstops really were so bad this year that a guy with 18 homers in a hitter's ballpark and an unexceptional defensive reputation truly did deserve consideration for the award.
Just look at the AL's regular shortstops this year:
Baltimore – Cesar Izturis – .230-1-28 – 545 OPS
Boston – Marco Scutaro – .275-11-56 – 721 OPS
New York – Derek Jeter – .270-10-67 – 710 OPS
Tampa Bay – Jason Bartlett – .254-4-47 – 675 OPS
Toronto – Alex Gonzalez – 259-17-50 – 793 OPS (85 games)
Chicago – Alexei Ramirez – .282-18-70 – 744 OPS
Cleveland – Asdrubal Cabrera – .276-3-29 – 673 OPS (97 games)
Detroit – Ramon Santiago – .263-3-22 – 662 OPS (112 games)
Kansas City – Yuniesky Betancourt – .259-16-78 – 692 OPS
Minnesota – J.J. Hardy – .268-6-38 – 714 OPS (101 games)
Los Angeles – Erick Aybar – .253-5-29 – 636 OPS
Oakland – Cliff Pennington – .250-6-46 – 687 OPS
Seattle – Josh Wilson – .227-2-25 – 572 OPS (108 games)
Texas – Elvis Andrus – .265-0-35 – 643 OPS
Ramirez had the highest OPS of the group and he tied with Pennington for the most games played at 156. Once one accounts for ballparks, he was no better offensively than Pennington or Jeter. But he was no worse either.
Taking defense into account, WAR does in fact rate Ramirez as the AL's best shortstop, based mostly on his strong fielding rating. Here are the AL shortstops ranked according to WAR:
1. Ramirez – 3.8
2. Pennington – 3.7
3. Gonzalez – 2.7
4. Jeter – 2.5
5. Hardy – 2.4
6. Scutaro – 2.1
7. Santiago – 2.0
8. Jed Lowrie – 1.8
9. Andrus – 1.5
10. Nick Punto – 1.4
Of course, that's putting a lot of faith in very shaky defensive statistics. Fangraphs data has Ramirez's glove being worth 10.8 runs, while Andrus came in at 0.1. I don't buy that for a second. I think Andrus is the AL's best defensive shortstop, followed by Izturis and then maybe Pennington. I view Ramirez as average or maybe a little better.
Gonzalez was the AL's best shortstop for 3 1/2 months, but he wasn't so much better that he deserves the nod here. In my opinion, this mostly comes down to defense. Jeter compares to Ramirez and Pennington offensively, but not with the glove. I'm actually going to give the nod to Pennington here. While the triple crown stats point to a huge edge for Ramirez, when it comes down to OPS, the difference is just 57 points and Ramirez was playing in a kinder environment for hitters. Also, Pennington was 29-for-34 stealing bases, while Ramirez was 13-for-21. WAR actually rates Pennington as the more valuable offensive player by 1.7 runs.
In the end, though, this is just a remarkably weak class. This year's top four shortstops were all National Leaguers: Troy Tulowitzki, Hanley Ramirez, Stephen Drew and Rafael Furcal. Andrus should be the AL's best shortstop going forward, but he might be another year away from impressing anyone with his numbers. Rebounds from Jeter and Cabrera are going to be needed for the AL shortstops to avoid being embarrassed by their counterparts again in 2011.
- apbaguy - Oct 21, 2010 at 6:48 PM
Big drop in OPS for Mountain View native Jason Bartlett from 2009 to this year, about 230 points. He loses big time in Bay Area Bragging rights to Tulo, whose from Sunnyvale.
More on topic, I agree about Andrus being the best defensively, although Ramirez had a good year. Andrus' range really is amazing. Pennington had too many lapses at short, letting the ball play him which resulted in enough errors to put him behind Scutaro, Gonzalez, and especially Andrus.
Boston fans should study these results. They show what a good deal Scutaro has been for them.
- apbaguy - Oct 21, 2010 at 6:49 PM
Whose? Who's is better. Apologies to English teachers everywhere.
- proudlycanadian - Oct 21, 2010 at 6:52 PM
Obviously Alex Gonzalez should have won despite being traded to the NL during the season.
- JBerardi - Oct 21, 2010 at 7:33 PM
Mark my words: if Jed Lowrie can stay healthy and can find playing time next year, he will be the best shortstop in the AL. 285/.360/.465 with average defense.
- quintjs - Oct 21, 2010 at 8:22 PM
If he can stay healthy I have to agree – he has a good bat with some pop, and UZR has him at worst average at SS with the glove.
I can see the Red Sox using Scutaro to start the year and giving Lowrie time all around the infield, and if Lowrie stays healthy and productive, moving into a platoon and then full time gig.
Matthew – UZR on one year is next to useless and Fangraphs always say that – you need a few years data to get an idea, and over the course of the last 2 years, UZR has Andrus a better SS than Ramirez.

Memoir of a Polish Girl at the Time of the Russian Revolution (1914-1924). Irene Rochas was born Aniela Tarnowicz in Warsaw in 1908, the youngest child in a large upper middle-class Polish family. With the outbreak of World War I in 1914, Irene and her family were stranded in Moscow, and with the further outbreak of the Bolshevik Revolution, they were able to return to their homeland only after a delay of four years. Irene's rediscovered narrative – written when she was fifty years old and set in the form of a novel – is a remembrance of those eventful years of her childhood in Moscow and Warsaw. In this sense, it is truly a "memoir," but, as the reader will see, it is also much more than that. Yes, "danse macabre" is the dance of death, the last waltz to which we are all invited. But Irene's "Danse Macabre" – with its inquisitive and empathetic tone... and its often searing imagery – is less a rumination on the... More > inevitability of death and more a testament to the vibrancy of life itself. [339 pp., 27 plates]< Less

1 Person Reviewed This Product
Jun 3, 2010Danse Macabre by Irene Rochas is non-fiction, a childhood memoir set in eastern Europe during WWI and the Russian Revolution and indeed an apocalyptic one with the Four Horsemen: war, famine, pestilence, and death, thus the title. The memoirist is Irene (pseudonym), ages six through sixteen. Irene is intelligent, sensitive, and spirited, the youngest in an upper class Polish family of ten children. Five of the children survive past young adulthood as the family flees from Poland to Russia at the outbreak of WWI and face starvation and disease and finally another flight of a remnant of the family from Russia back to Poland after the Russian Revolution brings even worse suffering. This memoir is both emotional and instructive, useful as source material for historical scholarship of both everyday life details and for historical events. The story is authentic. I first heard the story of this family through studying the work in personality theory of Dr. Anthony M. Benis. Dr. Benis is the... More > son of Irene. He was an infant when Irene and her husband and other children had to flee once again, this time from the German invasion of Poland in 1939 to New York State where they made their permanent home. Irene's family faith is Catholic. Her faith, determining as it did her outlook on life, is woven into this memoir. Although at a basic level, never being able to truly understand the meaning of all the suffering, she reconciled it as a communication with God. Now, I am awaiting with interest the continuation of the family story from the 1920s to the flight from Poland in 1939, including as it will her career as a noted actress in Poland, her marriage to a wealthy aristocratic Polish man, and the births of brilliant children. Further, I want to learn the story of their adjustment to life in upstate New York. The ending of Irene's story is only beginning as we see the work that her children are still accomplishing.< Less

China passes U.S. as world's biggest energy consumer
Monday - 7/19/2010, 1:54pm EDT
China is now the world's biggest energy consumer, knocking the U.S. off a perch it held for more than a century, according to new data from the International Energy Agency. The Paris-based agency, whose forecasts are generally regarded as bellwether indicators for the energy industry, said China devoured 2,252 million tons of oil equivalent last year, or about 4% more than the U.S., which burned through 2,170 million tons of oil equivalent, the Wall Street Journal reports. The oil-equivalent metric represents all forms of energy consumed, including crude oil, nuclear, coal, natural gas and renewable sources such as hydropower.

Warped Plywood Cabinet Doors
I have used an oak veneer 3/4" plywood to make kitchen cabinet doors. They look great and have been hanging for about 4 week but have begun to warp slightly. Can I correct this and is it something I can prevent?
About the only thing you can do is make up some battens and glue and screw them from the back side of the doors.
Make sure the holes in the battens are clearence drilled for the screws so they will have more pulling power to draw the two pieces together.

Additional file 12.
Normalized Hamming distance matrix for calculated flux distributions using improved approach. Flux distributions have been predicted with our improved flux balance approach (see Figure 1) for each time point of the intraerythrocytic developmental cycle for which a gene expression profile exists. Simulations were conducted on the basis of the combined metabolic network of parasite and host and additional constraints reflecting knowledge about the blood stage. Furthermore, the expression status of genes during preceding time points was considered for the flux calculations. In order to compare the individual flux distributions normalized Hamming distances (see text for formula) have been determined for all pairs of flux distributions. The darker the color of a matrix entry, the lower is the corresponding Hamming distance.

Debutant director Nitin Kakkar's Filmistaan has made impressive profits. With the Maharashtra government granting the film an entertainment-tax exemption the ticket sales are expected to show an upward climb in the third week.
The pressure on the Filmistaan team to do a sequel has increased. Says the film's leading man and the dialogue and screenplay writer Sharib Hashmi, "We're being persuaded to do a sequel.The film had an open ending where we don't know what happened to the Indian and Pakistanni protagonist. But both the director Nitin Kakkar and I are very clear that unless we get a storyline that takes forward the two characters played by me and Inaamulhaq we aren't doing a sequel. There is no point doing a sequel just because the first film has succeeded."
Says Sharib, "The Indo-Pak border issue is a serious matter. We can't treat it as a formula and drag it forward just to cash in on the success."
While Sharib and Nitin Kakkar insist that the sequel will happen after the plotline is figured out, sources say the two characters of the Indian and Pakistani friends are now being developed into ongoing characters for a television serial.
Sharib says he is overjoyed by the film's reach. "We hoped and prayed Filmistaan would get an audience. It did. Now there's the entertainment-tax exemption in Maharashtra...We are hoping that the other states would also grant an entertainment-tax exemption. We are also hoping that the film is received with as much warmth in Pakistan when it opens this Friday."

At empirestatelymediseaseassociation.org, there is a list of ways to prevent the disease. Using bug spray with DEET in it is one way to protect from bites, but it suggests checking out the level of concentration in the spray. If it only has 7 percent, it will protect you for one to two hours. Others might use 25 to 30 percent, but there may be some children who have sensitivities to it.
The web site also suggests using premethrin, which is a human-made synthetic pyrethroid and works more as a contact insecticide. The mixture of this with DEET can be very effective. There is also the suggestion of using a vitamin B patch or lavender, which can be used as a repellent.
With medical treatments for Lyme disease costing people an average of $8,568, according to LoGuidice and Schmidt's study, Cameron suggests trying to get treated as soon as possible. He also hopes more doctors become open to the idea that their patient may have Lyme disease.
"Chronic people are frustrated because they don't want anyone else to be missed," he said. "Instead of having doctor's divides, we should have a lot more dialogue and work out a better solution."

Goodrich Selects U.S. Air Force for F-35 Landing Gear Advanced Coatings
Corporation (NYSE: GR) has selected the U.S. Air Force's Ogden Air Logistics
Center (OO-ALC) at Hill Air Force Base,
landing gear for the F-35 Lightning II fighter aircraft. Under the agreement,
the OO-ALC will apply high velocity oxygenated fuel (HVOF) thermal spray
coating on Goodrich landing gear components produced for the F-35. The
initial agreement runs through
landing gear shipsets of the carrier variant F-35.
HVOF coating technology is increasingly being used in demanding aerospace
applications such as landing gear because it provides a superior performing,
environmentally responsible alternative to hard chrome plating. Goodrich,
along with the F-35 integrated product team, worked closely with OO-ALC on
technical, quality and program elements to bring the depot's HVOF process
online in a production environment.
According to
market, commercial and military platforms compete for limited capacity on
critical process technologies. By working with the Air Force, Goodrich is
able to provide our customer a high quality, environmentally-friendly product
at a price and production rate that is competitive with the commercial
marketplace. In addition, we have a unique opportunity to engage our customer
early in the F-35 program's life cycle; they can gain experience with the
landing gear design and technology well in advance of traditional depot
maintenance and overhaul activities as the product is fielded."
OO-ALC is the U.S. Air Force's landing gear center of excellence.
Goodrich and OO-ALC have had a partnership agreement since 2001. Other work
under the partnership agreement includes the repair and overhaul of landing
gear for the C-17 Globemaster transport aircraft.
Goodrich provides landing gear for all variants of the F-35 Lightning II -
CTOL (conventional takeoff and landing), CV (carrier variant) and STOVL (short
takeoff/vertical landing). Other Goodrich content on the F-35 includes the
air data system, weapons bay door systems, engine and fuel quantity sensors,
actuation systems and unique STOVL engine and airframe components. Goodrich
content on the F-35 is expected to be valued at more than
aircraft. Production takes place at company facilities in
the UK and the U.S.
Goodrich Corporation, a Fortune 500 company, is a global supplier of
systems and services to aerospace, defense and homeland security markets.
With one of the most strategically diversified portfolios of products in the
industry, Goodrich serves a global customer base with significant worldwide
manufacturing and service facilities. For more information visit
