A saint (from the Latin sanctus) is a human being to whom has been attributed (and who has generally demonstrated) a high level of holiness and sanctity in an exemplary life of virtuous behaviour. A saint is therefore not simply a believer but one who has been transformed by virtue and presents an example (often providing guidance) to other human beings striving to conform their lives to God. Such a person is often (but not always) recognized after their death by other human beings as someone who lived a divine life and who is in the Divine presence even in death. Saints are sometimes formally honored by fellow believers after their death being given the title of Saint before their name. Examples are the Apostles, Martyrs, and Doctors of the church.
Saints are not exclusive to Christianity. In every religion, in every nation, there are people who have been recognised as having fulfilled the highest aspirations of religious teaching and have realised God's will in their actions. In the mystical traditions of the world's religions one who has reached the uppermost level of purity and wisdom are also referred to as a saint.
In the Catholic Church, persons with stigmata, wounds of the Cruxifiction and Passion of Jesus Christ given to a person, is a sign of holiness or sainthood The anthropologist Lawrence Babb in an article about Sathya Sai Baba asks the question "Who is a saint?", and responds by saying that in the symbolic infrastructure of some religions, there is the image of certain extraordinary spiritual persons who are "commonly believed to possess miraculous powers", and to whom frequently a certain moral presence is attributed. These saintly figures, he asserts, are "the focal points of spiritual force-fields," exerting "powerful attractive influence on followers but touch the inner lives of others in transforming ways as well.
Within some Protestant traditions, saint is also used to refer to any born-again Christian.
Abbreviation for the term Saint is usually "St"; in cases where multiple Saints are referenced "Sts." is the norm.
According to the Church of England, a saint is one who is sanctified, as it translates in the Authorised King James Version (1611) 2 Chronicles 6:41
Now therefore arise, O LORD God, into thy resting place, thou, and the ark of thy strength: let thy priests, O LORD God, be clothed with salvation, and let thy saints rejoice in goodness.The early Christians were all called saints (Book of Hebrews 13:24; Jude 1:3; Philemon 1:5, 7).
The concept of sainthood is rooted in the Christian belief that aligning one's motives and actions with the will of God makes one more perfect and holy, and that it is possible in life to approach perfection. From early days of Christianity, Paul the Apostle and others used the word agios ("holy") to refer not only to all living believers (as in or ) but, at times, also to those in heaven (as in ). As Christianity developed, the word saint came to be used more commonly to designate specific individuals who were held to be exemplars of the faith, and who were commemorated or venerated as an inspiration to other Christians. Initially, the term was used to describe those who had been martyrs for the faith. Other believers would gather at the martyr's grave, and celebrate the Eucharist there. The ceremony took the form of a joyful, triumphant celebration. The first recorded instance of such ceremonies is the annual celebrations at the grave of Polycarp in the second century. From the beginning of Christianity, Christians prayed to departed friends and relatives to intercede on their behalf, and such prayers were soon extended to those regarded as saints. Rather quickly, the saints' intercession was sought more frequently than that of departed personal friends. Bishops and martyrs tended to be the most frequently venerated during these early years. Examples of early requests for intercession can be found in the Catacombs of Rome.
Shortly thereafter, another type of saint became recognized. This was the anchorite or hermit, of the type of Anthony of Egypt. Although hermits did not die in the physical sense, they did resolve to die to the pleasures of the world, making them effectively martyrs. Subsequently, after the formation of monasteries, monks came under consideration as saints. When convents were formed, nuns began to be canonized. Also, outstanding laymen became more frequently considered as saints.
To assist in the differentiation of the various kinds of saints, terms were invented to differentiate between them. In addition to the existing bishop, martyr, and hermit, Virgin and Matron for women, Confessor, Abbot and Abbess, Priest, and other words were added. Since then, churches have created additional such terms to assist in differentiating the ever-proliferating types.
Local saints were particulary popular. Someone who had led an extremely holy life could be canonized by a local Bishop. As the number of local saints grew, a formal process of canonization developed for identifying individuals as saints. Soon there were more saints than feast-days to honor them in the year. After the year 1234, only the popes had the right to canonize someone. Canonization involved a canonization trial, in which the holiness of the candidate was confirmed. Holiness was defined as a combination of a publicly recognized good and devout life, and the specific miracles that the saint-to-be had performed in his life or after his death.
The "cult of saints" and the associated competition in relic-worship is generally considered to have ended with the Reformation, but both within Roman Catholic and Lutheran tradition, the worship of saints continues, and a list of "official" saints by feast-day is kept on a calendar, while others are defined and remembered only by local churches.
There are more than 10,000 Roman Catholic saints. The older term for saint is martyr, meaning someone who would rather die than give up their faith, or more specifically, witness for God. However, as the word martyr took on more and more the meaning of "one who died for the Faith," the term saint, meaning holy, became more common to describe the whole of Christian witnesses, both martyrs and confessors. The Catholic Church teaches that it does not, in fact, make anyone a saint. Rather, it recognizes a saint. In the Roman Catholic church, the title of Saint - with a capital 'S' - refers to a person who has been formally canonized (officially recognised) by the Church.
Also, by this definition there are many people believed to be in heaven who have not been formally declared as Saints (most typically due to their obscurity and the involved process of formal canonization) but who may nevertheless generically be referred to as saints (lowercase 's'). Anyone in heaven is, in the technical sense, a saint. Unofficial devotions to uncanonised individuals take place in certain regions.
The veneration of saints, in Latin, cultus, or the cult of the saints, describes a particular popular devotion to the saints. Although the term "worship" is often used, it is intended in the old sense meaning to honor or give respect (dulia). Divine Worship is properly reserved only for God (latria) and never to the Saints. In Roman Catholic theology, since God is the God of the Living, then it follows that the saints are alive in Heaven. As "special friends of God" they can be asked to intercede or pray for those still on earth. A saint may be designated as a patron saint of particular causes or professions, or invoked against specific illnesses or disasters. They are not thought to have power of their own, but only that granted by God. Relics of saints are respected in a similar manner to holy images and icons. The practices of past centuries in calling upon relics of saints for healing is taken from the early Christian church. The worship of saints is referred to as 'hagiolatry'.
Once a person has been declared a saint, the body of the saint is considered holy. The remains of saints are called holy relics and are usually used in churches. The saints' personal belongings may also be used as relics. Some of the saints have a symbol that represents their life.
Orthodox belief considers that God reveals his Saints through answered prayers and other miracles. Saints are usually recognized by a local community, often by people who directly knew them. As their popularity grows they are often then recognized by the entire church. The formal process of recognition involves deliberation by a synod of Bishops. If successful, this is followed by a service of Glorification in which the Saint is given a day on the church calendar to be celebrated by the entire church. This does not however make the person a saint; the person already was a saint and the Church ultimately recognized it.
It is believed that one of the ways the holiness (saintliness) of a person is revealed is through the condition of their relics (remains). In some Orthodox countries (such as Greece, but not in Russia) graves are often reused after 3 to 5 years because of limited space. Bones are washed and placed in an ossuary, often with the person's name written on the skull. Occasionally when a body is exhumed something miraculous is reported as having occurred; exhumed bones are claimed to have given off a fragrance, like flowers, or a body is reported as having remained free of decay, despite not having been embalmed (traditionally the Orthodox do not embalm the dead) and having been buried for some years in the earth.
The reason relics are considered sacred is because, for the Orthodox, the separation of body and soul is unnatural. Body and soul both comprise the person, and in the end, body and soul will be reunited; therefore, the body of a saint shares in the "Holiness" of the soul of the saint. As a general rule only clergy will touch relics in order to move them or carry them in procession, however, in veneration the faithful will kiss the relic to show love and respect toward the saint. Every altar in every Orthodox church contains relics, usually of martyrs. Church interiors are covered with the Icons of saints.
Because the Church shows no true distinction between the living and the dead (the Saints are considered to be alive in Heaven), saints are referred to as if they were still alive. Saints are venerated but not worshipped. They are believed to be able to intercede for salvation and help mankind either through direct communion with God, or by personal intervention.
When a person is baptized in the Orthodox Church, he or she is given a new name, always the name of a saint. Regardless of the name a person was born with, the person begins to use his saint's name as his own during Communion, to help indicate that through his baptism the person has begun his life anew. This saint becomes one's personal patron, and his saint's day is also celebrated as a personal holiday. After infant baptism became widespread, though, the child usually received the name in a ceremony held 8 days after the birth, inside the house. Nowadays this service has almost become obsolete and the child is named at baptism.
In the Anglican Church, the title of Saint - with a capital 'S' - refers to a person who has been elevated by popular opinion as a pious and holy person. The saints are seen as models of holiness to be imitated, and as a 'cloud of witnesses' that strengthen and encourage the believer during his or her spiritual journey (). The saints are seen as elder brothers and sisters in Christ. Official Anglican creeds recognise the existence of the saints in heaven.
So far as saintly intercession is concerned, Article XXII of Church of England's Articles of Religion "Of Purgatory" condemns "the Romish Doctrine concerning...(the) Invocation of Saints" as "a fond thing vainly invented, and grounded upon no warranty of Scripture, but rather repugnant to the Word of God". However, each of the 44 member churches in the Anglican Communion are free to adopt and authorise their own official documents, and the Articles are not officially normative in all of them (e.g., The Episcopal Church USA, which relegates them to "Historical Documents"). Anglo-Catholics in Anglican provinces using the Articles often make a distinction between a "Romish" and a "Patristic" doctrine concerning the invocation of saints, permitting the latter.
Some Anglicans and Anglican churches, particularly Anglo-Catholics, personally ask prayers of the saints. However, such a practice is not found in any official Anglican liturgy. Anglicans believe that the only effective Mediator between the believer and the Father is the Son, Jesus Christ. But those who pray to saints make a distinction between "mediator" and "intercessor," and claim that asking for the prayers of the saints is no different in kind than asking for the prayers of living Christians.
Anglican Catholic denominations understand sainthood in a more Roman Catholic or Orthodox way, often praying for intercessions from the saints and celebrating their feast days.
High church Lutherans may use the term "saint" similarly to the manner in which other Catholics use it.
Santeria, Haitian Vodou, Brazilian Umbanda and other similar religions adopted the Roman Catholic Saints, or the images of the saints, as representations of their own spirits/deities or 'Orishas' in Santeria and 'Lwa' in Vodoun. Although there are many similarities between Vodoun and Santeria, they are different in respect to origin and language (Vodou is French, Santeria is Spanish). The adoption of Catholic Saints was fairly common in the religions that were adapted by the slaves in the New World. It can be understood as an example of faux-Catholicism.
The concept of sainthood developed in the Christian tradition. However, there are parallel concepts in other religions that recognize certain individuals as having particular holiness (or enlightenment). Judaism speaks of a class of (unidentified) individuals known as Tzadikkim. Some other faiths honor individuals as "saints" or equivalent as well.
There are individuals who have been described as being Hindu saints, most of whom have also been more specifically identified by the terms Mahatma, Paramahamsa, or Swami, or with the titles Sri or Srila. Some Indian Saints avoided titles and fame such as Neem Karoli Baba. Buddhists hold the Arhats and Arahants in special esteem. Some groups of Islam hold the Hadrat (literally, Presence, a title of Sufi Saints) in similar esteem.
Anthropologists have also noted the parallels between the regard for some Sufi figures in popular Muslim observance and Christian ideas of sainthood. In some Muslim countries there are shrines at the tombs of Sufi "saints", with the observation of festival days on the anniversary of death, and a tradition of miracle-working. In some cases, the rites are observed according to the solar calendar, rather than the normal Islamic lunar calendar.
While there are parallels between these (and other) concepts and that of sainthood, it is important to remember that each of these concepts has specific meanings within their given religion, and not all of those meanings are identical with the meaning of the idea of sainthood. Also, several religions which are at times considered to be new religious movements have taken to using the word, sometimes in cases where the people so named were generally not regarded to be Christians, in the conventional sense. Some of the Cao Dai saints and Saints of Ecclesia Gnostica Catholica are examples of such.
The concept of sant or bhagat found in North Indian religious tradition, is unrelated and a false cognate of "saint". Figures such as Kabir, Ravidas, Nanak, and others are widely regarded as belonging to the Sant tradition. Some of their mystical compositions are incorporated in the Guru Granth Sahib. The term "Sant" is still sometimes loosely applied to living individuals in the Sikh and related communities.

Pouncey works at guard in practicePosted by on November 28, 2012 – 10:19 pm
There could be a major change on the Steelers' offensive line on Sunday against the Ravens after center Maurkice Pouncey worked at left guard in practice, while Willie Colon sat out still bothered by his knee.
"If Willie Colon doesn't play, I will play guard," said Pouncey, who hasn't practiced at the position since training camp of his rookie season. "I am glad Coach (Mike) Tomlin put us in pads today. It gave me the opportunity to go out there and get my technique down and feel the physicality of it. I got to see the different looks at guard than I do at center."
There has been a rash of injuries on the line recently, including tackle Mike Adams who already has been ruled out this week. Pouncey knows if one man goes down, others have to just step up their game.
"We have some injuries and it's different but we have to keep fighting," said Pouncey. "We have to be professional about it. We have to get better in practice."
If Pouncey were to move to guard, Doug Legursky would start at center.
"I think it is no secret around the league or around this locker room that I am a better center than I am a guard," said Legursky. "I know personally that I am more natural there."

Karen and her husband Dave Leisinger are hardcore Camaro enthusiasts. We might even be so bold as to call them "Camaro freaks"-a term of endearment, of course. They've even gone so far as to pass their enthusiasm of first-gen F-bodies on to their two boys: Josh and Jared, both Camaros owners themselves. Could it be, "A family that owns Camaros together stays together?" It works for them. At 19 years of age, their oldest owns a '68 SS. The younger lad is a Yenko fan so, between homework assignments during the elementary school year, he chipped in on the build of his '67 tribute. Did we mention that he's 11?
We first ran into the Leisingers at the Columbus Goodguys show in 2009 where Dave brought out his immaculate '68 Bill "Grumpy" Jenkins tribute Camaro to compete for the 2009 Goodguys Street Machine of the Year. Although the Jenkins ride got high marks and went deep in the competition, it failed to take home the SMOY award.
That was then, and this is now, 2010 would be the year for Karen to bring out her Camaro to compete for the prestigious SMOY award. Seeing how the competition played out in 2009, Karen knew she would have to bring something more than special to the show. It would have to be different, yet not to the point of removing it's soul. Like many Camaro fans, she instantly fell in love with the fifth-gen Camaro, but her dedication remained with the first-gen. "There is so much fun and excitement that goes along with building a car, and I really like the looks of the '10 Camaro," said Karen. "But I didn't want to just go out and buy a new Camaro, so I thought 'why not have the best of both worlds and build a '67 with some of the finer parts of the new Camaro?' So I called artist Eric Brockmeyer and told him about my idea. I also mentioned that I wanted to build a Street Machine of the Year winner. He worked on some renderings and came up with a concept that featured some front and rear design elements of the '10 Camaro." And just for good measure, they added an actual roof from the '10.
"At this point we knew it would take a shop with an extremely talented team to handle this one. We've worked with Roger Burman and the crew at Lakeside Rods and Rides in the past," Karen mentions. "They did a fantastic job on Dave's 'Grumpy' tribute car last year, so we knew Roger's team could handle this."
So, with the donor '67 ready for a resurrection and an extensive list of body modifications on tap, the process would be rather timely. To make things even more difficult, parts off the '10 Camaro weren't yet for sale à la carte, so having the car ready in time for the Columbus event was certainly an issue.
Once the Lakeside crew got started on the car, and the cutting, stitching, and stretching began, Karen thought the early modifications in the sheetmetal actually looked like scars. "Even though I knew they would be covered up upon completion, with the amount of power this car will dish out, it will easily leave two scars on the asphalt," quips Karen. "That's basically how the name came about."
With most of the focus laid on the exterior, Karen knew the car would need enough power to coincide with the highly modified body lines, so an LSX block accommodates GM L92 heads stuffed with 10.7:1 hypereutectic pistons.

I don't like this rhetorical (?) question, "Tell me I'm right?" Or, "Am I right?" after a statement or more usually someones opinion. Drives me batshit.
Doesn't drive me crazy (which, as anyone in my family will attest, is a short trip), except when it is used after expressing an offensive opinion.
Anyway: the Mummerset accent, AKA the West Counties accent. Is this one of the funniest accents in the world?

Bede (also Saint Bede, the Venerable Bede, or (from Latin) Beda (beda)), (c. 672–25 May 735), was a Benedictine monk at the Northumbrian monastery of Saint Peter at Monkwearmouth, today part of Sunderland, England, and of its companion monastery, Saint Paul's, in modern Jarrow (see Wearmouth-Jarrow), both in the Kingdom of Northumbria.
He is well known as an author and scholar, and his most famous work, Historia ecclesiastica gentis Anglorum (The Ecclesiastical History of the English People) gained him the title "The father of English history". Bede is regarded as a Doctor of the Church by the Roman Catholic Church, a position of theological significance; he is the only man from Great Britain to achieve this designation (Anselm of Canterbury, though also a Doctor of the Church, was originally from Italy).
His works show that he had at his command all the learning of his time. It was thought that the library at Wearmouth-Jarrow was between 300-500 books, making it one of the largest and most extensive in England. It is clear that Biscop made strenuous efforts to collect books during his extensive travels.
Bede's writings are classed as scientific, historical and theological, reflecting the range of his writings from music and metrics to exegetical Scripture commentaries. He was proficient in patristic literature, and quotes Pliny the Elder, Virgil, Lucretius, Ovid, Horace and other classical writers, but with some disapproval. He knew some Greek, but no Hebrew. His Latin is generally clear and without affectation, and he was a skilful story-teller. However, his style can be considerably more obscure in his Biblical commentaries.
Bede's scriptural commentaries employed the allegorical method of interpretation and his history includes accounts of miracles, which to modern historians has seemed at odds with his critical approach to the materials in his history. Modern studies have shown the important role such concepts played in the world-view of Early Medieval scholars.
Bede's use of something similar to the anno Domini era, created by the monk Dionysius Exiguus in 525, throughout Historia Ecclesiastica was very influential in causing that era to be adopted thereafter in Western Europe. Specifically, he used anno ab incarnatione Domini (in the year from the incarnation of the Lord) or anno incarnationis dominicae (in the year of the incarnation of the Lord). He never abbreviated the term like the modern AD. Unlike the modern assumption that anno Domini was from the birth of Christ, Bede explicitly refers to his incarnation or conception, traditionally on 25 March. Within this work, he was also the first writer to use a term similar to the English before Christ. In book I chapter 2 he used ante incarnationis dominicae tempus (before the time of the incarnation of the Lord). However, the latter was not very influential—only this isolated use was repeated by other writers during the rest of the Middle Ages. The first extensive use of 'BC' (hundreds of times) occurred in Fasciculus Temporum by Werner Rolevinck in 1474, alongside years of the world (anno mundi).
Bede lists his works in an autobiographical note at the end of his Ecclesiastical History. He clearly considered his commentaries on many books of the Old and New Testaments as important; they come first on this list and dominate it in sheer number. These commentaries reflect the biblical focus of monastic life. "I spent all my life," he wrote, "in this monastery, applying myself entirely to the study of Scriptures. Bede's poem "The Great Forerunner of the Morn," written originally in Latin and translated into English by renowned hymn translator John Mason Neale in 1854, is still sung today as a hymn set to various tunes.
As Chapter 66 of his On the Reckoning of Time, in 725 Bede wrote the Greater Chronicle (chronica maiora), which sometimes circulated as a separate work. For recent events the Chronicle, like his Ecclesiastical History, relied upon Gildas, upon a version of the Liber pontificalis current at least to the papacy of Pope Sergius I (687-701), and other sources. For earlier events he drew on Eusebius's Chronikoi Kanones. The dating of events in the Chronicle is inconsistent with his other works, using the era of creation, the anno mundi.
His other historical works included lives of the abbots of Wearmouth and Jarrow, as well as lives in verse and prose of Saint Cuthbert of Lindisfarne. In his Letter on the Death of Bede, Cuthbert, monk and later Abbot of Jarrow, describes Bede as still writing on his deathbed, working on a translation into Old English of the Gospel of John and on Isidore of Seville's On the Nature of Things.
On the Reckoning of Time (De temporum ratione) included an introduction to the traditional ancient and medieval view of the cosmos, including an explanation of how the spherical earth influenced the changing length of daylight, of how the seasonal motion of the Sun and Moon influenced the changing appearance of the New Moon at evening twilight, and a quantitative relation between the changes of the Tides at a given place and the daily motion of the moon. Since the focus of his book was calculation, Bede gave instructions for computing the date of Easter and the related time of the Easter Full Moon, for calculating the motion of the Sun and Moon through the zodiac, and for many other calculations related to the calendar. He gives some information about the months of the Anglo-Saxon calendar in chapter XV. Any codex of Bede's Easter cycle is normally found together with a codex of his "De Temporum Ratione".
For calendric purposes, Bede made a new calculation of the age of the world since the creation. Due to his innovations in computing the age of the world, he was accused of heresy at the table of Bishop Wilfred, his chronology being contrary to accepted calculations. Once informed of the accusations of these "lewd rustics," Bede refuted them in his Letter to Plegwin.
His works were so influential that late in the ninth century Notker the Stammerer, a monk of the Monastery of St. Gall in Switzerland, wrote that "God, the orderer of natures, who raised the Sun from the East on the fourth day of Creation, in the sixth day of the world has made Bede rise from the West as a new Sun to illuminate the whole Earth".
|Facing that enforced journey, no man can be
More prudent than he has good call to be,
If he consider, before his going hence,
What for his spirit of good hap or of evil
After his day of death shall be determined.
|Fore ðæm nedfere nænig wiorðe
ðonc snottora ðon him ðearf siæ
to ymbhycgenne ær his hinionge
hwæt his gastæ godes oððe yfles
æfter deað dæge doemed wiorðe.:
As Opland notes, however, it is not entirely clear that Cuthbert is attributing this text to Bede: most manuscripts of the letter do not use a finite verb to describe Bede's presentation of the song, and the theme was relatively common in Old English and Anglo-Latin literature. The fact that Cuthbert's description places the performance of the Old English poem in the context of a series of quoted passages from Sacred Scripture, indeed, might be taken as evidence simply that Bede also cited analogous vernacular texts. On the other hand, the inclusion of the Old English text of the poem in Cuthbert's Latin letter, the observation that Bede "was learned in our song," and the fact that Bede composed a Latin poem on the same subject all point to the possibility of his having written it. By citing the poem directly, Cuthbert seems to imply that its particular wording was somehow important, either since it was a vernacular poem endorsed by a scholar who evidently frowned upon secular entertainment or because it is a direct quotation of Bede's last original composition.
After this, there is a gap of some 50 years. Manuscripts written before AD 900 include:
Copies are sparse throughout the 10th century and for much of the 11th century. The greatest number of copies of Bede's work was made in the 12th century, but there was a significant revival of interest in the 14th and 15th centuries. Many of the copies are of English provenance, but also surprisingly many are Continental. Bede's collected works were published in Patrologia Latina vols. 90-95, but this edition was "bad on a monumental scale, and included more spuria than any previous edition".
His scholarship and importance to Catholicism were recognised in 1899 when he was declared the only English Doctor of the Church as St Bede The Venerable. He is also the only Englishman in Dante's Paradise (Paradiso' X.130), mentioned among theologians and doctors of the church in the same canto as Isidore of Seville and the Scot Richard of St. Victor.
His feast day was included in the General Roman Calendar in 1899, for celebration on 27 May rather than on his date of death, 25 May, which was then the feast day of Pope Saint Gregory VII; however, the 1969 calendar reforms allowed Bede's feast day to move to its proper day.

How can I use 2 factor gmail authentication in this situation?
I have a gmail account, a laptop and a phone. I use 2 factor authentication so that when i try to access gmail on the laptop, i verify my identity with the phone, and it allows me to login in.
Now let's say I am out, and only have the phone with me. How do I login?
Thank you in advance for replies. This has been troubling me for a while!
EDIT: I would just like to thank whoever migrated this from superuser. I did not know about this site and having looked at it, I now see this is a better place. Thanks!

Letter from
Paul G. Allen
It is possible that no other technology on earth has so continually renewed itself as computer technology. Advances in this field arrive in such swift succession that even the software and hardware of a few seasons ago are considered obsolete. The decades-old computers and software in this collection, therefore, are truly worthy of our preservation and study – both for the cutting-edge innovations of their day as well as for their historical significance.
The Living Computer Museum also fulfills my hope that the achievements of early computer engineers aren't lost to time. I wanted to provide a website and repository that recognized the efforts of those creative engineers who made some of the early breakthroughs in interactive computing that changed the world.
I hope you enjoy learning more about these remarkable machines. I certainly had a ball using them in their heyday – from the late 1960s to the early 1980s. During that period almost all Microsoft development was done on these platforms.

Aptos, CA – April 30, 2010 – Each year after the Sea Otter Classic the world's best freestyle bike riders gather at a jump park outside the US Post Office in Aptos, California, for a day of epic freestyle riding. In possibly the last year for the event, GoPro sponsored an informal competition for the best sequence captured on video. The original prize offered by GoPro was $500 to one rider as voted by the Pinkbike community. But GoPro decided to up the prize winnings due to the phenomenal performances and the enthusiasm of the Pinkbike.com community.
"GoPro is so blown away by all of the riders, and so appreciative of their going big on camera with GoPro, we decided to up the purse to include loot for all participants, including the radical kid in the beginning of the video," said Nicholas Woodman, CEO and founder of GoPro.
All 12 participants are getting a $300 booter and a HD HERO from GoPro.
"Brandon 'The Expander' Semenuk takes home an expanded $750 first prize for expanding our minds and understanding of what is possible on a bike. – Semenuk, that was on another level, dude. And to the young gun, whoever you are, we'd like to award you with a $300 career development sponsorship to help your parents keep your saddle swift and your helmet fitting. You got 14 votes which adds up to a win in our book. GoPro, young gun…we'll look for more of you in the future," remarked Woodman.
The top three vote getters were:
- Brandon Semenuk – 126 votes
- Jake Folgelquist – 70 votes
- Aaron Chase – 64 votes

West Virginia Mountaineers Football Tickets
West Virginia Mountaineers Football Tickets Tickets Rated 0.00/5 based on 0 customer reviews
2013: 4-8 (2-7 Big 12) 2013 was simply a down year for Mountaineer football. It was their second year in the Big 12, which has proven to be as tough as advertised. It was also the first season they've missed a bowl since 2001. Early on they hung in a tight loss at #16 Oklahoma, get whipped 37-0 at Maryland, beat #11 Oklahoma State, then lost to #17 Baylor and #16 Texas Tech. It was an up-and-down season where they seemed to play to their level of competition. Despite inconsistency at the quarterback position they tended to pass the ball well. They didn't have a great receiving core though a year after losing highly-touted NFL picks Tavon Austin and Stedman Bailey. They had an 1,000-yard rusher in Charles Sims but the offense overall wasn't up to snuff with the rest of the conference. Then the 100th-ranked scoring defense at 33.3 points allowed per game also did them in. Dana Holgorsen has coached much better teams before; if he can rally his guys around their rare opportunity to play Alabama at home in Week 1, who knows what could happen? Other big home games are against Oklahoma, Baylor, and K-State. Previously, the Mountaineers were a powerhouse in the now-defunct Big East Conference. The Mountaineers operate under head coach Dana Holgorsen at Milan Puskar Stadium, which holds about 60,000 fans. Rivalry-wise, Maryland is the only one they have left after the conference change, and that ends in 2017. They have dormant rivalries with Virginia Tech, Syracuse, and, most notably, Pittsburgh. WVU doesn't have a national title but they do have 15 conference titles and 30 bowl appearances. In the last 10 years the Mountaineers have made three BCS games: a 2005 win in the Sugar Bowl, a 2007 win in the Fiesta Bowl, and 2011's rout over Clemson in the Orange Bowl. They sent Geno Smith, Austin, and Bailey to the NFL last year to join Adam "Pacman" Jones, Will Clarke, JT Thomas, and many more Pro Mountaineers. Gold Coast Tickets does not want you to miss out on the action as the Mountaineers look to gain ground in the Big 12. Gold Coast Tickets has the best selection for all your college football needs this season!

Hey y'all! Welcome to our family blog. We are a large, loud and Jesus loving family from the rural Midwest. I am Nicci, also know around these parts as "mom" to my brood of a half dozen and as "babe" to my handsome other half. We live on a handful of acres and have raised chicken, pigs, bees, tomatoes and most importantly our rowdy bunch of kidlets. We cloth diaper, homeschool, DIY, and try to eat as "homemade" as possible. My ratio of hobbies verses free time is COMPLETELY unbalanced. I enjoy crocheting, knitting, sewing, designing, drawing, using power tools, and anything else that involves creating. I also love to decorate and organize when time and money allow - but come on now, it is hard to make it to the bathroom without little people following 2 steps behind me and my grocery bill is comparable to a mortgage payment! It is a busy, challenging and sometimes chaotic life managing a larger than normal family but ultimately one of God's greatest blessings that I am immensely grateful for! In no way have I "arrived" or "figured it all out", but I am humbled to be able to share my experience with others!

This Makes All The Prior Work WorthwhileOnce the car is stripped, the bodywork done, the primer applied and blocked to perfection, it's time to lay down the final hue. The color coats are the pay-off, where all that work and effort are rewarded with a finish worthy of a Corvette. Really, once the proper foundation is laid with diligent work to this point, applying the final color coats is just like adding icing to the cake. The process of building our project C3 is ongoing and real, and as it is, the main body tub still isn't quite ready for the final finish coats. However, our paint plan has always been to spray the removable panels individually and off the car, allowing full coverage of the edges and jambs without seams. This is a common technique in painting top-level show cars, but taking this approach comes with its own set of caveats. Foremost on that list is ending up with a perfect color match from panel to panel. There are two main factors here: the paint and the application.
Obviously, for the panels to match, the paint must be a perfect match. If more than one batch of mixed color is involved, it always pays to "bulk" the paint together, and then pour it back into the cans after thoroughly mixing the batches together. With this move, it all becomes one batch of the same mix. The second factor-the application-is a little more nebulous, and here there are a few variables including the paint itself. If the color coats include effects, such as pearls, candies, or heavy metallics, getting a consistent look becomes more difficult, and depending upon the effect, can be impossible. Even regular metallics can be difficult, but there are techniques to negate the potential for mismatches, such as using consistent numbers of coats and finishing with a fogged mist-coat technique.
For our Corvette project, we are using Planet Color's Chumma Orange, which is a solid orange. A solid lends itself very well to painting the panels individually, with little chance of a mismatch, as long as the coverage is complete and sufficient to hide the primer. Our painting strategy is to paint the hood, doors, headlamp assemblies, roof panels, and miscellaneous small parts first, and then paint the main body. This approach will yield complete paint coverage of the edges, hood gutters, and jambs. The result once the car is assembled is a seamless look that is much more detailed than the factory finish.

Washington DC, 1963--The Cuban Missile Crisis is last year's news, and John Fitzgerald Kennedy's young administration is starting to hit its stride. Behind the scenes, however, winds of discontent are swirling. Thirteen-year-old Adam Stafford has his own problems to deal with. At that uncomfortable age when both everything and nothing seems possible, he's a bit of a loner, a kid who spends too much time wrapped up in his own thoughts as he suffers through the daily grind of nuns, bullies, and girls at Holy Cross School--until the evening his adolescent yearnings come to life: Adam spies a beautiful naked woman in the house across the street, and his curiosity is inflamed. The woman is Catherine Caswell, a stunning thirty-something blond beauty who has just moved in. Captivated, Adam is determined to learn all he can about his new neighbor. Catherine is an artist, a divorcee and a confidante (if not more) of JFK. Against all odds, an unlikely friendship blossoms between the innocent thirteen-year-old and the world-weary survivor. But, friendship is never enough, not in Washington, and not at the height of the Cold War. Catherine's hidden past soon catches up with them as she and Adam find themselves enmeshed in the growing confusion and intrigue leading to the assassination of the President.

I am a voracious Pratchett fan and have read Going Postal many times over because it is my favorite. (actually I read them all again and again and can't wait to get the rest of the series)
My 13 Year old daughter Katie hates to read and I've tried many times buying her books that involve her interests but to no avail. (unless you count the Anime comic books)
One night I was in bed reading and Katie couldn't sleep. She came in and sat on the bed and wanted to just chat about a television show. I listened and we talked until she ran out of things to say so I just started reading out loud from Going Postal. She laughed so hard! So when I told her i was tired but she was welcomed to keep reading she said yes. That was a week ago. Now she has finished Going Postal and Making Money! She reads better and her spelling is improving. Now to introduce her to Rincewind.......
I wish I could thank Mr. Pratchett in person for the years of continued enjoyment and for creating such wonderful stuff that would turn my non-reading daughter into a fan!

'Four Words' - an interactive, lively test of some key phrases from the start of the AS Curriculum
We've got another fantastic interactive quiz format for you. This one will help test how much your students have taken in over these first few weeks of the AS course. This activity called 'Four Words' shows students the first four words of a definition of a key phrase. Students must decide if they think they know what the key phrase is (and earn maximum points) or wait to see the rest of the definition and earn lower points. Of course, if they get the answer wrong they get zero points! 15 key phrases are tested.
Are you a secret Tory, Lib Dem, Lab, Kipper, Green or BNP voter?

Four answers are shown on screen but there is no question attached. Instead, students must work out which 3 out of the 4 answers are linked and which remaining answer is unconnected (the Red Herring). Think of the 'picture round' in Have I Got News For

Living with a roommate can be one of the most rewarding experiences of your college career. Whether you find a new hobby, learn a new skill, or become good friends, living with a roommate can be fun! However, living with someone also has its challenges. As you prepare for your search for a roommate, consider some of the advice we have provided below.
Please keep in mind that everyone has different beliefs, values, experiences, communication styles, and expectations. With that being said, you and your roommate may become the best of friends, or you may only see each other when you're in your room. No matter how close you are, you have to work together to establish and maintain a positive living environment. Having the right attitude can make living with a roommate a little easier for everyone living in the room. The most important elements of living with a roommate include:
As soon as you get settled into your room, you should discuss your expectations honestly. The biggest conflicts often arise when expectations are not addressed from the beginning. Don't put off talking to each other about how you want to live, needs, quirks, and pet peeves. It's a great way to help manage conflict in the future.
Speaking openly about what you expect from each other and your personal habits is a vital step that many people skip especially if living with a friend or someone you already know. It's pretty common for roommates to think that if they get along well as friends, they will get along as roommates, however, often living with friends and not discussing the things that might bother one another, can cause tension.
Living off campus, means you are pretty much on your own to work out problems with your roommate -- unlike the residence hall where you might have an RA to help you resolve and mediate problems. Just like any relationship, it's always a work in progress. But talking to one another, being honest about feelings, and developing a relationship that involves sharing, compromise, and respect will insure that you have a great living situation.
From cleaning the apartment to hosting guests, deciding on how to split costs, the following documents can help you have a successful roommate relationship:
The NYU Roommate Registry, accessed through your NYUHome account, makes available a listing of individuals looking for roommates, exclusively from the NYU community. It's a great resource to find others who are searching for an apartment or those who may be looking to share a space within their current living situation.
If you have never logged on to NYUHome, make sure to activate your account. Information about eligibility for NYU Home accounts is available at www.nyu.edu/its/students/.
Note: The Roommate Registry is only accessible by current NYU students, faculty, and staff members. If you do not have access, please contact ITS (212-998-3333) for assistance.

Please keep in mind that NYU does not have any relationship with these companies, unless otherwise noted, and inclusion on this list does not constitute a recommendation or endorsement. NYU is unable to vet any website or listing, so please conduct your search carefully.

Produce six colorful dice from inside a SEE-THRU bag!
Your audience can clearly see that the bag is empty- the side of the bag has a transparent window! Yet you reach into the bag and instantly pull out six dice, one by one! Yes, it's that simple!
PLUS- YOU'LL GET A BONUS! As if this trick isn't easy enough, you'll also get the password to the bonus video which will teach you Monticup's own techniques for loading the bag and for performing the effect effortlessly!
The effect is that the dice appear from nowhere, apparently from an empty bag. That's a pretty amazing trick in itself, but there's more!
These dice can also be hidden in a production box, a card case, a book, up your sleeve, etc.
Imagine simply opening a book, and suddenly SIX DICE appear! Flip through the pages of the book, and the dice will literally FLY OUT OF THE PAGES! Or how about opening a deck of cards and taking out SIX BIG DICE that are way too large to fit inside the case! Or reaching up your sleeve- to pull out colorful dice! The possibilities are endless- and best of all, the TRICK WORKS ALL BY ITSELF!
When fully expanded, each die cube is about 2.75 inches on each side, and very colorful! These cubes can be folded back up, and used over and over and over again!
Please be aware that these are POPUP dice- they are hollow, and made of paper. Because of their construction, you can see the folds on the sides. That's the nature of this effect. It's meant to startle and entertain your audience- and this effect will certainly do that!
(And thanks to our wonderful video hosting company, Wistia.com, for supplying Peter's great looking t-shirt!)

Created and maintained by the Public Library of Cincinnati and Hamilton County staff, this database indexes selected articles on local topics from area newspapers, currently including the Cincinnati Enquirer, the Cincinnati Post, the Cincinnati Herald, the Business Courier, Cincinnati Magazine, and the Downtowner. Some topics can be traced back into the 19th century, although the years since 1990 are covered more fully. There is no full-text in the database.

Stories from people who were children during World War II and the objects in this exhibit animate the past and inform us of a time when war took over daily life. "Retrospect is a very interesting thing," says Ruthie Kallnder. "At the time I don't recall any of the information we got as being propaganda," but the government tried to influence children to make "necessary" sacrifices. Propagandists made the war a battle between good and evil, democracy and fascism. They also asked children to share in the war effort. In response, many children took on more responsibilities. Ruthie explains that boys and girls felt "if that's what it was going to take" to win they "were willing to do it." The memories of the people in this exhibit and their wartime actions show the power of propaganda's messages and its lasting affect on their lives. Propaganda posters, children's books, and classroom assignments demonstrate how propagandists reached children and involved them in the national war effort.

After one of the most exciting MotoGP campaigns in recent years, Bridgestone Motorsport Manager Hiroshi Yamada looks back on the highlights from this season and gives a brief glimpse of the world's largest tire manufacturer's approach to 2014.
Yamada-san, how would you summarize the 2013 MotoGP season?
Overall, I think this season has been fantastic – one of the best ever for the series. All the riders were performing at a very high level and to witness Marc (Marquez) break record after record and Jorge (Lorenzo) defend his title with so much passion, I think it brought many new fans to MotoGP.Bridgestone, Hiroshi Yamada, MotoGP

Melbourne Zoo celebrated 150 years in 2012
Throughout 2012, Melbourne Zoo celebrated its 150 year anniversary with thousands of Victorian families.
Melbourne Zoo has come a long way since its humble beginnings as an Acclimatisation Society and today we are proud to be a much-loved Melbourne icon and one of the and best known city zoos in the world.
We commemorated the special birthday with a whole year of special events and enjoyed looking back on our long history as well as hearing from our visitors their special memories of the Zoo.
The major events for the year included a huge line-up of Twilights, a special book launch, a Gala Ball, a Comedy Debate, special performances from the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra, an invite-only Wild Picnic and launches of two new interactive kids exhibits at Melbourne Zoo.
The two flagship events for the anniversary year, Mali in my School and Mali in the City were a great success raising over $450,000 to go towards the Zoo's conservation efforts. A big thanks to all the schools, artists and sponsors involved.
While the milestone was a wonderful way to engage our community and supporters in our special celebration, it also had a higher purpose to fight the extinction of threatened species through raising critical funds for Zoos Victoria's breeding and conservation work.
We were overwhelmed with public support for our 150th Anniversary and we'd like to thank everyone involved for helping to make 2012 a very memorable year.
In particular, Zoos Victoria would like to acknowledge City of Melbourne, our Community Partner and ANZ, our major Financial Partner in 2012.

can this be set up to keep a database of sleep history? something I can show my doctor?
- Asked by David L from Lancaster
LARK Un-Alarm Clock and Sleep Sensor
Product No Longer Available
1 Answer from the Community
Yes and no.
The Lark software tracks data, including how long you slept, how long it too you to fall asleep and how many times you woke it. It provides an assessment of how well it believes you slept and allows you to tag categories to describe your sleep.
All of this data resides with Lark via a linked account (free that you sign up for).
You can view this data in the app and show it to your doctor on your iOS device.
But, as for sorting, analyzing, importing it into something like a spreadsheet or database: that is not possible at this point.

The original Dutch settlers were less inclined than the English colonists to confront the frontier. Preferring to live in the colonies as they had in the Netherlands, they imported luxury objects such as the tea caddy and charger shown nearby. Even when New Amsterdam became New York in 1664, the Dutch colonials stood apart culturally from the English and consciously tried to maintain their differences, especially their adherence to the Dutch Reformed Church and their language.
The kas (large storage cupboard) is an example of the perpetuation of Dutch material culture. The forms continued to be made by descendants of Dutch colonials well into the eighteenth century, even though it had disappeared in the Netherlands. Interestingly, when the kas died out in the United States in the later nineteenth century, it was revived in the Netherlands as an expression of nationalism.

A documentary analyzing the life and career of famed Italian director Federico Fellini (1920-1993), who directed a host of legendary films, including: "8 1/2" (Italy/1963), "Satyricon" (Italy/1969), "La Dolce Vita" (Italy/1960), and "Nights of Cabiria" (Italy/1957). Through interviews with famous talents who worked with him, scenes from his films--both released and unreleased--and interviews with the late director, himself, a chronicle builds which discusses themes of art, creation and the mythical world that influenced his body of work; as well Fellini discusses the role of the artist in society, and how his films, specifically, fit into a particular world view.
