"Since I prefer more traditional designs, the Gathered Wreath invitations fit the bill perfectly. The colors, design and printing quality are outstanding. This is the second time I have ordered from Tiny Prints, and I'm sure it won't be the last."
"Such a great card, festive and super cute. I used the gray and red color combo and loved the final product. We used the extras as coasters for my holiday party and used gift tag stickers to seal the envelopes as a fun touch."
"This format worked well to put all of our directions / party rules (for a white elephant gift exchange) on the back of the postcard. It really turned out adorable!"
"this was my first time to order cards on line- I had a million questions, your customer service was outstanding. - very helpful and polite. when I received the cards there was a problem - Your customer rep took care of the problem and sent out corrected card immediately. You guys do a great job and I would certainly recommend Tinyprints to anyone. thank you Cathy Baker"
"I could not be happier! Our invitations arrived very quickly. Everything was done extremely well, from the packaging and invoicing to the quality of the invitations. I have never had such quick, professional service and will definitely be using Tinyprints again! Thank you for making this part of the party stress free!"

Unique Properties of Some of the Key Compounds in Nitraflex:
Extreme Potency: Nitraflex Tablets are pure Nitraflex, the most advanced, ultra-modern nitric oxide vasodilator, now in a tablet form. Take Nitraflex for the ultimate in Nitric Oxide Performance Enhancement.
High Citrulline-Arginine Ratio: Arginine is a proven precursor to nitric oxide (NO), a vasodilator. What most people don't know is that arginine supplementation stimulates the activity of arginase, an enzyme that breaks down arginine. Over time, this may actually result in reduced arginine and NO levels, in turn causing your preworkout formula to stop working. Research suggests that supplementing with a high ratio of citrulline to arginine may reduce this risk by avoiding overstimulation of arginase.*
6 Weeks of Testosterone: Calcium fructopyranose borate (CFB) has been shown to increase testosterone in healthy subjects.* The average increase in total and free testosterone in a 6-week study was 56% and 29.5%, respectively. In a second study, total and free testosterone increased only 3 hours after a single dose of CFB.
Effective Doses of Beta-Alanine: The clinically-proven performance enhancer beta-alanine was not "fairy dusted" in this formula. Rather, we added an exceptionally powerful dose that you will feel starting to work following your very first serving.
Creatine-Free: Creatine causes water retention, which can make achieving a dry, hard muscular look even more difficult. Sometimes creatine is added to products precisely for this reason. (When you see yourself getting bloated, you may be fooled into thinking the product is "working"). We left it out of Nitraflex precisely for this reason.
Cognitive Enhancer: Nitraflex contains unique ratios of scientifically validated compounds that help you remain alert, intense and focused while you're flying from set to set with veins fully dilated and muscles pumped to the extreme.
Nitraflex is #1 For Maximized Hyperemia (Pumps) & Muscle Torque
Featuring an Advanced, 6-Part Nitraflex Nutrient Partitioning Blend:
A potent proprieceutical blend designed to "open the floodgates", the uptake and storage of more nutrients, glycogen and blood into the muscle cell. Phenomenal hyperemia and vasodilation attributes to much fuller muscle pumps and peformance... and super-human strength!

A retired chaplain in Illinois found a $1 million winning lottery ticket when he was cleaning his desk, two months after the winning numbers were announced.
Ron Yurcus of Glen Ellyn, Ill. said he doesn't usually buy lottery tickets.
"Occasionally while I buy gas, if the [lottery] prize is higher, I'll buy one or two tickets," Yurcus, 68, said.
Yurcus, a retired hospice chaplain, said he had accumulated about 12 tickets within two months, but didn't check to see if any were winners until a few weeks ago.
"I bought them and never really rush home and check numbers right away. I throw them in a pile," he said.
When he was cleaning his desk, which he called "a cluttered mess," he sifted through his pile of tickets and was pleasantly surprised to learn he not only had a couple tickets that won $2 but a $1 million Powerball drawing prize from the Aug. 22 drawing.
"When I went to the payoff page and saw $1 million, I wanted to scream but no one was home," he said, then checking the number about 25 times that night and asking his wife, a school secretary, to re-check the numbers once she returned home.
Yurcus used to be self-employed with a print shop in addition to serving at the hospice, before retiring Nov. 2.
"I don't really have a retirement package put together. This is my retirement," he said. He and his wife are also active with charitable causes. He said he will use some winnings to support his three children and four grandchildren.

By GWEN SISSON
Ryan Akers used to joke that there are three things people can count on ŌĆö death, taxes and the Dawg Bait Tailgate.
For about 30 years, tailgating and cheering on the Mississippi State Bulldogs has been a time for family, food and football. At any game, there are usually two generations and usually several three generations of families, including the Covins and the Newmans.
However, the Coleman family is the only family to have four generations represented in the Dawg Bait Tailgate, including Tommy and Frances Coleman who began the Dawg Bait Tailgate; the second generation is Danny and Cindy Akers, followed by the third generation of Ryan and Brandy Akers and sister, Fran. The fourth generation is two year old Will Akers, with a little sister on the way shortly.
ŌĆ£ThatŌĆÖs really something to behold when you stop and think about it,ŌĆØ said Ryan Akers of the Dawg Bait Tailgate. ŌĆ£Not everyone gets to experience this as a family, so we are fortunate.ŌĆØ
Akers said in some form, the Dawg Bait tailgate has been around for over 30 years.
ŌĆ£My grandparents started this tailgate with a group of their friends around 1980, though I think it may have actually been longer than that,ŌĆØ Akers said. ŌĆ£IŌĆÖve been coming to this tailgate since I was around 7, so itŌĆÖs close to 30 years for me too.ŌĆØ
Cindy Akers, RyanŌĆÖs mom, said MSU tailgating is all about family, friends and food.
ŌĆ£There is nothing better than Bulldog football,ŌĆØ Cindy Akers said. ŌĆ£Friends all stopping by to visit and there are too many foods to even pick a favorite.┬ĀRyan and Danny, his father, are unreal cooks. I think┬Āsecretly they try to ŌĆśout-cookŌĆÖ┬Āeach other but┬Āneither will ever admit to that. ItŌĆÖs all in fun.ŌĆØ
Cindy Akers said all four generations of their family have┬Ātailgated in┬Āthe same┬Āspot ever since her parents, Tommy and Frances┬ĀColeman, pulled the car up┬Āat the┬Āsame location and┬Āactually┬Āopened the trunk of the car and┬Āpulled out the┬Āpicnic lunch.
ŌĆ£ItŌĆÖs work to get everything┬Āthere these days but itŌĆÖs┬Āworth it all ....win or lose,ŌĆØ Cindy Akers said. ┬Ā┬Ā┬Ā
Ryan Akers said the earlier days were much different than the tailgate experience they will have Thursday. He said the tailgate is much bigger now in terms of members, friends and family, equipment, food and process.
ŌĆ£Once I was in grad school, I started inviting some of my friends and we started trying to ease some of the work off of those that created it,ŌĆØ Akers said. ŌĆ£When I moved back to Starkville, Brandy and I really took over the most of the process of getting prepared each week. Then weŌĆÖve added many of our coworkers and colleagues from here on campus and they bring their families. They are just as critical to the success of our tailgate each week. Sounds like a clich├®, but it really feels like family out there on a Saturday afternoon, which is how it should be.ŌĆØ
Over the years, people have come and gone, but the mainstays usually range around 20-25 people at the Dawg Bait Tailgate. Akers said some of the bigger conference games tend to bring in more family and friends and then they also have occasional fans of the opposing teams.
They have had as many as 40 and as little as 10 people join them at the Mississippi State University campus to cheer on the Bulldogs over the past few years.
Other than family, the Dawg Bait Tailgate includes friends of the family, some of Akers best friends from his days as a student at MSU, coworkers and colleagues, friends and guests of the University, and they do accept fans from other institutions. In fact, Akers said he thinks they have hosted fans from all SEC schools, except Arkansas and South Carolina. Akers said there are no particular reasons for the exceptions, he just doesnŌĆÖt recall any visitors.
ŌĆ£Everyone has nothing but positive things to say so folks seem to feel at home and have a good time,ŌĆØ Akers said. ŌĆ£I think that everyone leaves with a positive impression of MSU, which is something that we hope to always see. Again, we are fortunate. Without all of the support from the mainstays and our guests over the years, the tailgate wouldnŌĆÖt be what it is today. IŌĆÖm just glad to be a part of it and glad that I can carry on a family tradition. Hopefully, one day my son will take over for me.ŌĆØ
Akers said tailgating has been an important part of his family for many years, and he has many great memories.
ŌĆ£Most of my really early ones are wrapped up in playing football with my friends and not having any real tailgate ŌĆśresponsibilities,ŌĆÖŌĆØ Akers said. ŌĆ£However, over the years, there have been a ton of memories made.ŌĆØ
One that comes to mind was for an Auburn game a couple of years ago when there was an 11:30 a.m. kickoff. That early game meant that the family was out on campus by 7:30 a.m.
ŌĆ£Obviously, it was a breakfast tailgate, but we turned it into a contest of sorts and modeled it after the Food Network show, Iron Chef America,ŌĆØ Akers said. ŌĆ£So, Iron Chef Tailgate was implemented with the secret ingredient being eggs. It was fantastic.ŌĆØ
Akers said the quality and the quantity of the food was incredible.
ŌĆ£We printed programs and sent them out via email prior to the week which just added to weekŌĆÖs preparation,ŌĆØ Akers said. ŌĆ£About an hour before kickoff, a couple of Auburn fans walked up, opened their wallet, and said, ŌĆśHow much?ŌĆÖ And they were being serious. We still laugh about that today.ŌĆØ
Akers said the two game home stretch in 2000, where the Bulldogs beat ranked teams in Florida and Auburn in consecutive weeks, was also pretty amazing.
ŌĆ£The energy from those two games is comparable to what it feels like now,ŌĆØ Akers said. ŌĆ£After we beat Auburn, Coach Tommy Tuberville walked up the sidewalk adjacent to our tailgate with his head down and trying to stay unrecognizable and being fairly successful at it until a family member whose name I probably shouldnŌĆÖt mention here says ŌĆśNice Game, Coach.ŌĆÖ Then everyone noticed him and started jabbing at him a bitŌĆ"probably more so for what heŌĆÖd alluded to regarding Mississippi after leaving TSUN. But those two game atmospheres were fantastic obviously.ŌĆØ
Akers said the Arkansas win to get MSU into the SEC Championship was exciting.
ŌĆ£That game and the ŌĆÖ99 Egg Bowl win, were two that immediately come to mind and those moments after the game at the tailgate are sort of frozen in time,ŌĆØ Akers said. ŌĆ£Absolutely amazing times to be with friends and family.ŌĆØ
One memory sticks out for Ryan Akers when he was a teenager.
ŌĆ£My grandmother, a longtime administrator on campus, would always introduce her family to all the tailgate guests,ŌĆØ Akers said. ŌĆ£Once, prior to an Egg Bowl back in the early 90s, she introduced me to this ominous looking man wearing this trench coat on a cold and dreary day and thatŌĆÖs really all I remember about the moment. I was told that he was going to be a successful author and he did have the look of someone important. I was a teenager then, so I was more worried about winning that game, not too much about meeting some random person. You know how teenagers are.ŌĆØ
Akers said thereŌĆÖs a lesson to be learned here. He said to pay attention to your grandparents. In hindsight, Akers would have liked to have talked to John Grisham that day.
And last year, Akers brought his son, Will, to the tailgate, who represented the fourth generation of his family to enjoy the food, the fun and the football.
ŌĆ£I was able to take our son Will to the tailgate for the first time last year, so that was a special moment for me,ŌĆØ Akers said. ŌĆ£HeŌĆÖs already talking about his school, ŌĆśSisismisppi StateŌĆÖ and of course, he really freaks out about seeing Bully. So, continuity and smiling faces are what I look forward to the most regarding tailgate, and some great food too.ŌĆØ
The Dawg Bait Tailgate celebrates birthdays, engagements and any achievements and milestones. One year, they had a wedding at the tailgate. And there have been more than one baby shower. Celebrating family is just part of the tradition, according to Akers.
The tailgate itself is one big tradition, with a variety of elements that make each season special.
ŌĆ£In our family, if you have things to do, you better plan around the tailgate, because if the Dawgs are in town, you know that youŌĆÖll be there in the same spot that weŌĆÖve been for years,ŌĆØ Akers said. ŌĆ£ItŌĆÖs what we do in our family. Seems like it always has been that way and I hope it always will.ŌĆØ
Akers said to some, everything that is done to prep for the tailgate is a tradition.
He said emails go out the week prior to the game, menus are set and headcounts are made. Thursday nights begin the equipment setup process with the tents. Everything is carefully loaded into his and his grandfatherŌĆÖs trucks.
Akers said his grandfather, Tommy Coleman, is retired, so on Friday mornings, he heads out to campus very early in the morning to stake out their usual tailgate area and hold the spot for what they call the Running of the Tents at 5 a.m.
ŌĆ£I usually meet him out there prior to work that morning to help him take the tents off the truck,ŌĆØ Akers said. ŌĆ£Then he waits, literally all day, until around 4:45 p.m. when I arrive again and meet with our help to put the tents up.ŌĆØ
Then itŌĆÖs back home to begin the cooking which usually takes place while watching Game Day previews until midnight.
On Saturday morning, Akers and his grandfather load up the rest of the equipment and are out on campus dropping off things at the tailgate, getting ice, gas for the generator, and other last minute items. Then itŌĆÖs back home for a couple of hours to finish the cooking and gather the family.
ŌĆ£We are always back at the tailgate at least four hours before game time,ŌĆØ Akers said. ŌĆ£Sure, with how the tailgate has grown over the past 10-15 years, thatŌĆÖs a lot of work, but itŌĆÖs all worth it during Game Day.ŌĆØ
And the group is excited about Thursday nightŌĆÖs first home game.
ŌĆ£Of course, IŌĆÖm looking forward to the Dawgs defending their turf at Davis Wade Stadium and getting back in the hunt for the SEC Championship game,ŌĆØ Akers said. ŌĆ£I canŌĆÖt wait to see the electric atmosphere prior to and during the game. I canŌĆÖt wait to show our opponents, visiting fans, and the rest of the country, what our football team is capable of.ŌĆØ
Akers works in higher education and he is a huge college football fan. He understands that each school, especially in the SEC, has its own unique traditions and its own fans that think their campus is the place to be on game days.
ŌĆ£IŌĆÖm no different,ŌĆØ Akers said. ŌĆ£To me, there is no better place on a beautiful fall afternoon than right here in the Junction and inside Davis Wade Stadium at Mississippi State University. It doesnŌĆÖt get any better. To say that all of our fans are excited about this yearŌĆÖs team is a great understatement.ŌĆØ
Akers enjoys football and tailgating so much, he misses it during the offseason.
ŌĆ£Continuity, smiling faces, and just being back out there,ŌĆØ Akers said. ŌĆ£IŌĆÖm looking forward to continuing this great fellowship another year. ThereŌĆÖs nothing like it.ŌĆØ
After finishing at MSU, Akers was a Bulldog in Athens, Ga. for six years. Every weekend during the football season, with a couple of exceptions, he returned to Starkville to get ready for the tailgate.
ŌĆ£I only missed about one game a season during that span, which was really at the height of recent success for UGA football,ŌĆØ Akers said. ŌĆ£My friends and coworkers at UGA didnŌĆÖt seem to understand my insistence that I return home since they are pretty proud of their tailgate and their team too. I guess this all really depends on your definition of tradition.ŌĆØ
In fact, one of his best friends in Georgia asked him what was so special about Starkville and MSU after seeing him return home week after week.
ŌĆ£I told her that unless sheŌĆÖd been to a State game or to Starkville, she probably wouldnŌĆÖt understand it,ŌĆØ Akers said. ŌĆ£I asked her to marry me a couple of years later. Thankfully, she said yes and now I think she understands.ŌĆØ
Brandy Akers is now a vital part of the success of the tailgate each week.
ŌĆ£I love tailgating,ŌĆØ said Brandy Akers.┬ĀŌĆ£It is so special to me to┬Ābe in the Junction┬Āwith my family and friends before a football game celebrating MSU football with thousands of Bulldog fans.┬ĀI love the energy on campus, the beautiful fall weather, and the delicious food. My favorite tailgate dishes are┬Āmy husbandŌĆÖs red beans and rice, Michael NewmanŌĆÖs ribs, and all the desserts.ŌĆØ
Akers grandmother, MSUŌĆÖs Dean of Libraries Frances Coleman, said everyone loves RyanŌĆÖs Red Beans and Rice and tailgating.
ŌĆ£Our family loves Mississippi State,ŌĆØ Coleman said. ŌĆ£We look forward every year to football season. We always enjoying tailgating with family and friends and each year we make new friends. We all enjoy it so much and it really adds to the football season for us. All of the food is wonderful, but RyanŌĆÖs Red Beans and Rice is a favorite of everyone.ŌĆØ
Akers said everyone seems to always want to know what game he will be making Red Beans and Rice.
ŌĆ£To say that itŌĆÖs got some heat to it, is putting it mildly,ŌĆØ Akers said. ŌĆ£I worked on that recipe for over three years and finally got it just right and it makes its appearance each year after November. IŌĆÖve probably received the most specific compliments for that dish. But all of the food that everyone prepares for these tailgates is just tremendous.ŌĆØ
The Dawg Bait Tailgate has served everything from traditional tailgate staples of ribs, barbeque, hamburgers, and hot dogs, to empanadas, Lebanese meat pies, Eggs Florentine and French onion soup.
ŌĆ£All in all though, folks tend to flock to the hamburgers and hot dogs (the traditional first tailgate fare), the deep fried turkey (the traditional last tailgate fare), my DadŌĆÖs chicken wings and ribs, my wife BrandyŌĆÖs Pecan Treats, Michael NewmanŌĆÖs pork tenderloin, etc.,ŌĆØ Akers said. ŌĆ£We also have an array of smaller dishes ranging from jalapeno white cheddar cheese dip and several different types of potato salads and desserts, including the tailgate essential, Moon Pies, brought by one of my best friends for years, Eric Bishop and his wife, Joan, for my grandmother.ŌĆØ
Akers has been serving as the tailgate grill master for the past several years.
ŌĆ£I wish that I could tell you that there is some secret science behind it, but honestly, like most folks out in the kitchen, patio, or in the Junction, my approach to the grill comes through trial and error,ŌĆØ Akers said. ŌĆ£All good cooks, and even the bad ones, experiment with different recipes and ideas. Some turn out good and some bad. IŌĆÖve just learned what works for me and for the folks at the tailgate.ŌĆØ
Akers said after learning the tastes and preferences of many of the tailgate mainstays, he can typically design a menu that has something for everyone.
ŌĆ£IŌĆÖm known to make a lot of my food pretty spicy, so I always have to make sure that there is considerable food available for folks that cannot handle too much spice,ŌĆØ Akers said. ŌĆ£Other than that, we all just cook what we like to cook and try to pair it well with the main dish for the week. Everyone seems to be happy.ŌĆØ
Menus for this yearŌĆÖs Dawg Bait Tailgate have already been set, featuring a central dish that everyone builds around.
ŌĆ£At this point, the only thing that I have planned that will be new to the tailgate is a Turducken ŌĆö chicken stuffed inside a duck stuffed inside a turkey,ŌĆØ Akers said. ŌĆ£The central dish for the last couple of Egg Bowls at home has been a deep fried turkey. Those have been great, but everyone is always burnt out on turkey once the game is over, so I thought about the Cajun Stuffed Turducken for the Egg Bowl this year.ŌĆØ
Some have suggested the group look into paying someone to set up the tents and do the cooking, but Akers said thatŌĆÖs not a consideration.
ŌĆ£I think it just goes back to family time,ŌĆØ Akers said. ŌĆ£The process for taking everything down and getting it home and stored for the next tailgate is just as methodical as the prep. And then the process starts itself over.ŌĆØ

Hi Derrick,
Fascinating post. I must say that I am unable to resist pointing out a rather amusing irony. I was criticizing the extremity in Pink's arguments for private judgment over three years ago (Nov. 2000).
Thus I find it a bit personally "vindicating" to see you making a lot of the same criticisms that I made as a Catholic long before the recent Reformed Catholic movement seems to have gotten off the ground. Not to say, "I told you so." I merely see some irony and humor in that, given the multitude of charges thrown my way from some quarters about how I am supposedly so in the dark about the nature of true "Reformational" Protestantism.
You wrote:
Institutions can and do err, and the solution to this is the RPJ. But this presupposes, whether Pink likes it or not, the infallibility of the individual. Pink directly says, 'God has given me that precious Book for the very purpose of making known to me what I am to believe and do, and if I read and search it with a sincere desire to understand its meaning and be regulated by its precepts, I shall not be left in the dark.' Either 'sincere' individuals are infallible or Pink has made a major mistake here. Obviously individuals are not infallible, so this whole line of argumentation is self-refuting. Individuals can make small, medium, and large theological errors just like institutions can, so the RPJ does not solve the problem of institutional error or insure that the individual will be 'in the light' as Pink says.
This is a great observation. I was trying to do much of the same, way back when, in, e.g., my paper: "Response to Tim Enloe's Counter-Reply on the Matter of Private Judgment" .
The discussion is very complex, but my own critique of Protestantism on this score has been radically misunderstood by many. In another of my papers on this topic (Dialogue: Catholic vs. Protestant Conceptions of the Meaning and Consequences of Private Judgment) I wrote:
Private judgment - again, in its standard meaning, defined below - inevitably tends to lead individuals and groups down the primrose path of separatism and an undue influence of the traditions of men (oftentimes that of the founder of the group) - despite the obligatory warnings of the more sophisticated and nuanced expounders that such division is evil, etc. The principle (like so many heretical ideas, in their incoherence and ultimate falsity) has its own inner dynamic and logic, and people consistently follow it. Pink's own 'blot' or 'blemish' of refusal to affiliate with church groups at all later in his life, is a clear and classic example of a dynamic and a corruption or degeneration that has been repeated countless times. He says the 'right things' about the teaching; he acts differently, and a bit more self-consistently (though not entirely so). He says one thing and does another, because the teaching is self-defeating in the first place.I fully understand the distinction between sola Scriptura and solo Scriptura. I always have. I was writing about that as early as 1991, right after I converted to Catholicism, citing Bernard Ramm and R.C. Sproul and G.C. Berkouwer. I am quite aware of the difference between "magisterial Reformation" and the radical Reformation, or covenental Reformed vs. "Reformed Baptists" (my severest critics have never understood this about my position).
One cannot assert private judgment and pretend that this does not and will not have many negative ramifications for ecclesiology. Luther and Calvin never understood this, and it seems that a great many Protestants to this day do not, either. As is so often the case, the most penetrating insight, analyses, and criticism of sola Scriptura and its corollaries of private judgment and perspicuity (clearness) of Scripture come from those who have self-consciously rejected these false notions as unbiblical, illogical, and unhistorical, as well as absurdly impractical. This is no novel concept. People who reject Darwinian evolution can see its faults and flaws more clearly than most proponents of the theory. Those who oppose the pathetic system of American public education, see its glaring (and obvious) failures much better than the National Educational Association, who must say it is a good and successful system, simply because it is their system, and they do not wish to change it (don't upset the apple cart; let the sleeping dog lie).
That being the case, it is still a separate issue as to the nature of private judgment, and how it is understood within magisterial Protestantism. I'm one with you guys in criticizing the individualistic and sectarian excesses. Where we differ fundamentally is with regard to my critique of private judgment as applied to the very roots and founding principles of Protestantism: Martin Luther himself.
My argument is that his own point of view (expressed in no uncertain terms, of course!) leads inexorably to the excesses found in Pink and other more individualistic, Americanized" Protestants.
You guys can deny this all day long, till you're blue in the face, but I have not been convinced at all that Luther's thought does not inevitably lead to such an individualism as we observe all around us. In other words, what I have never been shown (hardly anyone has even tried) is a convincing argument that Luther's principles do not and cannot lead to an individualism of the sort Reformed Catholics have been excoriating as of late. If anyone wants to try to do so now, I would be delighted to interact with that.
All I've gotten thus far in these kinds of discussions are charges that I am equating the different schools of Protestantism (noted above) with each other, and confusing categories, or collapsing one school into the other (painting with too broad a brush).
This is absolutely untrue, of course. I am merely following the logic through to what I believe is its conclusion: constructing a reductio ad absurdum argument, just as you and others of your comrades have done to some extent.
What I was trying to grapple with were the implications and principles which flow from a certain type of statement from Martin Luther such as the following:
Therefore, I now let you know that from now on I shall no longer do you the honor of allowing you—or even an angel from heaven—to judge my teaching or to examine it. For there has been enough foolish humility now for the third time at Worms, and it has not helped. Instead, I shall let myself be heard and, as St. Peter teaches, give an explanation and defense of my teaching to all the world -- I Pet. 3:15. I shall not have it judged by any man, not even by any angel. For since I am certain of it, I shall be your judge and even the angels' judge through this teaching (as St. Paul says [I Cor. 6:3 ]) so that whoever does not accept my teaching may not be saved — for it is God's and not mine. Therefore, my judgment is also not mine but God's.

Further Remarks from Luther's Tract Against Henry VIII, King of England (1522)
Through me Christ has commenced His revelations concerning the abominations in the holy place.
I am certain that I have my dogmas from heaven, . . .
[From: Martin Luther: His Life and Work, Hartmann Grisar, Adapted from the 2nd German ed. by Frank J. Eble, edited by Arthur Preuss, Westminster, MD: The Newman Press, 1950 [orig. 1930], 261 / from Werke [Weimar], Vol X, II, pp. 180 sqq., 227 sq. Opp. Lat. Var., pp. 385 sqq., and Werke, Erlangen ed., Vol. XXVIII, pp. 343 sqq.]
Against all the sayings of the Fathers, against all the arts and words of angels, men and devils I set the Scriptures and the Gospel . . . Here I stand and here I defy them . . . The Word of God I count above all else and the Divine Majesty supports me; hence I should not turn a hair were a thousand Augustines against me, and am certain that the true Church adheres with me to God's Word.
(From: Luther, Hartmann Grisar, tr. E.M. Lamond, ed. Luigi Cappadelta, 6 vols., London: Kegan Paul, Trench, Trubner & Co., 1915; volume 4, 391 / from Werke [Weimar], Vol X, II, p. 256 f.)
Elsewhere, in the same year, Luther wrote:
Each man must believe solely because it is the word of God and because he feels within that it is true, even though an angel from heaven and all the world should preach against it.
(From: Luther, Hartmann Grisar, tr. E.M. Lamond, ed. Luigi Cappadelta, 6 vols., London: Kegan Paul, Trench, Trubner & Co., 1915; volume 4, 391 / from Werke [Weimar], Vol X, II, p. 90; Von Menschen leren tzu meyden, 1522)
From: An Argument in Defense of All the Articles of Dr. Martin Luther Wrongly Condemned in the Roman Bull (1521):
I say not that I am a prophet, but I do say that the more they despise me and esteem themselves, the more reason they have to fear that I may be a prophet . . . If I am not a prophet, yet for my own self I am certain that the Word of God is with me and not with them, for I have the Scriptures on my side, and they have only their own doctrine. This gives me courage, so that the more they despise and persecute me, the less I fear them. There were many asses in the world in the days of Balaam, but God spake by none of them save only by Balaam's ass . . .
(From: Works of Martin Luther, Philadelphia: A.J. Holman Co. and the Castle Press, 1930; rep. by Baker Book House, Grand Rapids, MI, 1982 , Volume 3, 12-14,17; translated by C.M. Jacobs)
All who shun us and attack us secretly have departed from the faith . . . Just like Zwingli . . . It pains me that Zwingli and his followers take offence at my saying that 'what I write must be true.'
(From: Luther, Hartmann Grisar, tr. E.M. Lamond, ed. Luigi Cappadelta, 6 vols., London: Kegan Paul, Trench, Trubner & Co., 1915; volume 4, 309)
Now, I'm sorry; maybe I am dense and obtuse, maybe my logic is flawed, or I am blinded by my "Roman" bias and tunnel vision, but for the life of me I swear that I can't see any essential distinction between the extreme individualism and "sectarianism" of these remarks by Martin Luther, the founder of Protestantism, and the less extreme views of folks like James White: folks whom Reformed Catholics have excoriated as of late.
It seems to me, again, that White and his compatriots and sycophants can draw at least as much support from Luther and Calvin as you guys can. This is true both with regard to the question of the status of the [Roman} Catholic Church and the present consideration of private judgment.
If you say that Pink, White, and scores of other individualized, atomistic, "Americanized" Protestants have departed from the measuring rod of "magisterial Protestantism" (which presumably includes Luther among its number), then please, PLEASE (I BEG YOU) show me where the distinction lies. I don't get it. How do they depart from what Luther said above?
Most of what I've gotten so far is abuse, misrepresentation, name-calling, false charges, and a lot of yelling and running from my Protestant friends when I dare to bring up such uncomfortable considerations as these. They clearly don't like it. But obviously their discomfort and rage at my abominable behavior in actually citing Luther's words are not arguments, and provide me with no reason to change my opinion.
If, on the other hand, you concede that Luther (and also Calvin, I suspect -- properly scrutinized) believes at bottom, the same things about private judgment (at least in some key respects, over against Catholicism and the previous tradition and rule of faith), then the distinction upon which "Reformed Catholicism" is based, largely collapses -- at least in this respect.
My view, again, is that there are VERY major distinctions to be drawn between various Protestant camps on the authority issue. I recognize these, and have for the entire 13 + years since I have converted. But that doesn't prove that Luther's and Calvin's original positions do not suffer from grave defects, nor that they can be totally distanced or disconnected from the excesses in subsequent Protestant history that we all dislike and detest.
If you disagree, please show me how and why, particularly regarding Luther's statements above (with a minimum of polemical and merely "party" rhetoric, if possible). How is one to interpret those? Luther had a bad day, and raved like a madman? Literary style? We simply discount them, or take them with a grain of salt, knowing of Luther's uncontrollable tongue, etc.?
Thanks for reading and may God abundantly bless you.

Great review and presentation.
A couple of questions please:
I've got to replace a Logitech G510 because of software conflicts which are driving me nuts.
As the layout of the K90 is very very similar to the G510 (and for my needs it's perfect) I need to know whether the software is a derivation/modification of the Logitech software.
I really want the mechanical keys and I'm ready to purchase a K90 immediately but I don't want to land up with the same software conflicts.
Thanks very much for any help.

1. Jahvid Best, Lions
Best remains the most effective player in the Lions offense. He's averaging just 3.5 yards per rush, but is also averaging over 10 yards per reception.
2. Sam Bradford, Rams
Every rookie is bound to have a game like Bradford's against the Lions at least once. It's a minor setback, but he'll learn from it.
3. Aaron Hernandez, Patriots
Hernandez ranks second to Best in receiving yards by rookies.
4. Mike Williams, Bucs
Williams has improved throughout the season and has his biggest game yet with seven catches for 99 yards against the Bengals.
5. Rob Gronkowski, Patriots
Gronkowski has just six catches (two for touchdowns) but he has been as good as advertized in terms of being an elite blocking tight end.
1. Nate Allen, Eagles
Allen isn't just the best rookie safety, he looks like one of the best free safeties in football this season.
2. Koa Misi, Dolphins
Misi and Dolphins are coming off a bye week. He's still tied for 2nd among rookies with two sacks.
3. Tyson Alualu, Jaguars
Alualu has been impressive both against the run and as a pass rusher. He has two sacks, two hits and seven QB pressures.
4. Earl Thomas, Seahawks
Thomas looks like an elite safety in coverage. Teams are avoiding throwing his direction, and he's made them pay with three picks when they do.
5. Ndamukong Suh, Lions
Suh is a nightmare for interior offensive linemen to block in passing situations (leads rookies with three sacks) but he is still developing against the run. He's been a liability at times when teams run directly at him.

Operation of Utility Comments
The water utility operators have achieved the necessary certification to operate the utility and are considering further training. The current water system is experiencing some difficulties due to the age of the system, but is operating at the proposed level of service. Buildings attached to the water system need to run water constantly during the winter months so the main line will not freeze. Most of the City is served from a single water pipe. It is common to walk down the boardwalk and hear and see treated, unused water pouring from underneath city structures. The City recently had a major break in the water distribution system; however, the city had the financial resources to fix the problem without a significant interruption in service. The wastewater system is also experiencing problems due to the age of the system, types of pumps in the system, and the available power supply. The community is currently in the construction phase for upgrades to its water and wastewater systems which will solve many of the ongoing problems. The utility operators consult with the Mayor on a regular basis and provide verbal status reports monthly. The Mayor, who also serves as the utility manager does visit the facilities and conducts random spot checks for maintenance items. The utility completes and distributes its Community Confidence Report (CCR) in compliance with State and federal regulations. During the 2006 calendar year, the utility received monitoring violations from the Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation for failure to submit samples for Arsenic and Total Trihalomethanes and Haloacetic Acids. The utility was given until May 1, 2007 to return to compliance by submitting the required samples and avoid possible enforcement action. As of May 7, 2007 the utility is on the Significant Non-Compliance (SNC) list for failure to monitor Total Trihalomethanes and Haloacetic Acids (TTHM/HAA5) as required by the Stage 1 Disinfectant/Disinfection By-Product Rule. The system must collect one set of annual TTHM/HAA5 samples. The earliest the utility could come off the Significant Non-Compliance list is 3rd Quarter 2008. The operator maintains an adequate level of supplies and some spare parts for the utility, however does not maintain an inventory control or critical spare parts list. The operators have a safety manual and preventive maintenance plan for the sanitation facilities. These are included in the utility operations manual. The operators meet daily and conduct regular safety meetings on a monthly basis which is annotated in a safety log recording the date, topics discussed, and the personnel present at the meeting. In addition to the safety meetings, the operators routinely discuss potential risks and safety procedures before starting a job.

Many folks want to redecorate, but they don't what they'd really like. You can find many easy ways to fix up your home with a little research.
A good thing to remember with interior design is to include various textures or patterns into the room you're designing. These textures help to add to the look and interest to otherwise boring designs.
Pay attention to minor details. You can create a very interesting look by using small elements of decor or creating bespoke color patterns .
Too many pieces of furniture can make your room look cramped and smaller than it really is. A wiser move is to opt for one or two key furnishings in the room and maximize your open space as you can see at midlands conservatory furnishings.
Consider using wallpaper to only cover 50% of the wall. It can be very expensive to redecorate. A way to save money is by only wallpapering half of it with wallpaper. Give your wallpaper a nice border and then paint the rest. This will make your walls look stylish without breaking the bank.
Don't choose a paint color selection process. Rushing a paint job could cause you to make some poor color choices. See how they look when exposed to different lighting conditions.You might find that you don't love a few times in the process.
Paint is a good investment, so buy a high-quality brand to do the design job correctly. Cheap paint can harm your walls, and it will not last very long, costing you much more money over time. Invest in more expensive paint to make sure your design lasts.

Heya, if you're participating in the Uberwald RPG and would like to discuss the game Out of Character, please do it here rather than clutter up the actual RPG thread. Same goes for any lurking readers who wanna comment on the game. Here's a copy of the RPG's rules:
On your first post please describe your character/s, tell us about him/her/it/them and the reason why they are in bonk in the first place.
I'd like your first character to be one of your own creation. There will be time later on in the thread for you, if you wish, to play as one of the main characters from the books.
So, in short, give us some idea who your character is and only use canon Discworld characters as side characters, not your main one, please and thank you.
I haven't made my first post yet, but since Jezzron and I loved to play these games on the old board, he's enthusiastically asked to do another one, which I'm all too happy about, and he's asked me to make this OOC Thread.
I'll probably post my first post in it tomorrow, but first I wanna throw an idea or two around with another former RPG'er friend of ours who's gonna join

The U.S. Court of Federal Claims issued a judgment ordering the federal government to pay $450,516 in damages for breaching its water and sewer contracts, as well as $303,589 in interest. The county has contended Tyndall owes unpaid water bills dating back to 2007, when Tyndall refused to pay the increased rate. Tyndall has contended the language in one of its county contracts provides a rate-increase exemption.
"The important thing about this is the notion that this board establishes water and sewer rates, and we do it at a public hearing," he said. "We have a good basis for what" we charge.
"What happened here is Tyndall farmed out some of their services, and they came in and looked at our contract and what we were doing, and they said, 'We weren't doing it right,' " Gainer said. "We proved we were doing it right and we prevailed."
Gainer said he's probably spent 200 hours on this legal battle over the course of several years.
He smiled as he looked at a copy of the judgment. "I think I'm going to frame it," he said.
Tyndall officials referred comment on the case to the Department of Justice, which represented the base in court. Department of Justice officials could not be reached for comment Tuesday.
The water bill is not charged to military personnel who live on the base, as it is part of their housing allowance.
The federal government has 60 days to appeal the decision to the federal Court of Appeals.
The judgment only reflects the additional water fees owed to the county from the time the county increased them in 2007 through the time the lawsuit was filed in February 2011.
The total amount owed to the county to date is well in excess of $1 million, said Erick Meade, a
Meade said the case could be precedent-setting.
The county increased the rates after two consultants recommended doing so. At the time, it hadn't increased the rates since 2000.
Other action
In other action Tuesday, the commission:
- Awarded a bid to GAC Contractors for $541,116 to pave 2.3 miles of local roads and three intersections that are in poor condition.
- Approved appointing Dr. Stephen P. Leach, associate dean of Florida State University Panama City, to the county's RESTORE Act Advisory Committee. The committee is making a recommendation to the
- Approved a resolution supporting a display in the commission chambers stating "In God We Trust." The resolution states the saying became a national motto in 1956 and has been used on
- Heard a report on the financial status of five "enterprise" funds that are paid for through fees, which include utility funds, wholesale water, builders services, AWT and a solid waste fund.
An earlier version of this story is posted below:
PANAMA CITY - Bay County has prevailed in a court battle with Tyndall Air Force Base over a dispute over wholesale water costs.
The United States Court of Federal Claims has issued a judgment ordering the federal government to pay $450,516 in damages for breaching its water and sewer contracts, as well as pay $303,589 in interest.
Bay County supplies the base with wholesale water.
County officials have contended that Tyndall owes about $1 million in unpaid water bills dating back to 2007, when Tyndall refused to pay a higher rate. Tyndall has argued that the language in one of its county contracts provides a rate-increase exemption.
The Bay County Commission learned of the judgement on Tuesday morning.

About the ManufacturerThe Post-it Note was invented as a solution without a problem: Dr. Spencer Silver developed a unique, repositionable adhesive, but the 3M scientist didn't know what to do with his discovery. Then, six years later, a colleague of Dr. Silver, Art Fry, remembered the light adhesive when he was daydreaming about a bookmark that would stay put in his church hymnal. The rest is history.
