Release Date:
February 16, 2010
One of the best-known stories from the Bible gets a new and decidedly playful retelling in this animated comedy, the first feature film from the creators of the popular video series VeggieTales. Archibald Asparagus (voice of Phil Vischer) stars as Jonah, who is chosen by God to help spread his message to the world. Unfortunately, his first stop on his evangelical tour is the city of Nineveh, where the residents while away their days bingeing on cheese snacks and arguing, usually settling a war of words by throwing fish at one another. Circumstances force Jonah to set sail across the ocean, where he's assisted by Khalil (voice of Tim Hodge), a carpet peddler who is half caterpillar and half worm ("but I'm OK with that now"), and "The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything," who are led by the well-meaning but lethargic Mr. Lunt, Pa Grape (both voiced by Phil Vischer), and Larry the Cucumber (voice of Mike Nawrocki). However, Jonah's mission gets a bit of a setback when a mammoth whale changes his plans. Phil Vischer and Mike Nawrocki, who provide most of the character voices, also wrote and directed Jonah: A Veggie Tales Movie, and also created the original video series. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Dale Jarrett Racing AdventureRead MoreDale Jarrett Racing Adventure places novice passengers alongside professional drivers for ride-along experiences on Talladega Superspeedway. At 2.66 miles around, Talladega Superspeedway is the largest oval racetrack in the Sprint Cup Series and is well-known throughout motorsports. Passengers circumnavigate the speedy circle at speeds of up to 175 mph aboard real racecars once owned by such drivers as Mark Martin, Michael Waltrip, and Bobby Labonte. Before embarking, riders receive safety training and suit up in a full fire suit complete with a helmet with facemask and Hans Device, the same head restraint used by professional heavy-metal guitarists. Talladega Superspeedway is located next to the International Motorsports Hall of Fame, which is open daily to visitors.700 Raceway BoulevardMadison, IL US
Supreme GolfRead MoreSupreme Golf makes maintaining an oft-pricey golf addiction a bit easier on the wallet by granting golfers discounts at golf courses and golf schools, as well as cutting the price of books, golf clubs, and nutritional supplements. Golfers can enjoy relaxing, discounted rounds at area courses in cities across the country including such area courses as Bear Creek Golf Club in Dallas, Gateway National Golf Links in St. Louis and St. Andrews Golf and Country Club in Atlanta, soaking in the sights and badgering local pros for analysis of the annual caddie draft.18 Golf DriveMadison, IL US
STL Photo ArtRead MoreWhen camped out at a picturesque St. Louis spot—from an old barn to the iconic Arch—Brian K. Owens sees more than just the opportunity to take a pretty picture. The fine-art photographer and owner of STLPhotoArt grasps for stories in each of his photos, stories that he seeks to bring to his clients through commercial shoots and instill in his students during photography classes. The shutterbug guides beginning shooters through Forest Park and the St. Louis Zoo, dispensing photography know-how along the way. Owens also lends his talented eye to elegantly capture moments at weddings, engagements, and knight-christening ceremonies.200 South Front StreetEast St. Louis, IL US
Gotham Dream CarsRead MoreGotham Dream Cars lets drivers grip the throttle of exotic speed machines such as the Ferrari F430, Lamborghini Gallardo, and Bentley Continental GT for personal rental or specialized thrill experiences. During the Dream Car Sprint, auto enthusiasts slip into a Ferrari or Lamborghini on a closed course and whip their more than 500-horsepower drive three times around the autocross track, learning how to tame their power with the aid of an instructor before coming out of the third lap on a straightaway to open the engine up to its full potential. Drivers conduct an orchestra of firing pistons and camshafts for three laps before crossing the finish line and parking to the pianissimo of the softly purring V8 engine. Gotham Dream Cars snaps pictures of the sprint, so drivers are sent home with hands they will never wash and a CD of images to parade before jealous coworkers and humbled shopping carts.700 Raceway BoulevardMadison, IL US
Pure Speed Drag Racing ExperienceRead MoreA driver curls his fingers around the steering wheel, takes a deep breath, and places his foot onto the peddle, bringing a mechanical beast to life. The screech of burning rubber, roar of an 500-horsepower engine, and the silent rush of adrenaline block out the rest of the world, allowing the driver to focus entirely on the run. As he battles the g-force, the realization hits that he has just achieved a lifelong dream: He is a drag racer. Doug Foley first noticed the lack of a comprehensive drag-racing training center in 1997, and he took it upon himself to fill the void. Along with a team of instructors, Foley lets novices ride shotgun or drive themselves to taste drag racing for the first time. Once the new racers are hooked, a lineup of beginner to advanced classes licenses students for everything from junior dragsters, to door cars and A-fueled dragsters. Through these efforts, Foley and his team ready drivers to compete in professional races and fulfill a dream.700 Raceway Blvd.Madison, IL US
Run or DyeRead MoreRun or Dye is making race running a little more colorful, one major city at a time. This 5K is divided up into four separate courses of varying lengths, each designated by a separate color?which also reflects the color of safe, eco-friendly powered dye the participants get splashed with. At the end of the race, they'll cross into the aptly named Dye Zone?a polychromatic free-for-all where fluorescent color is thrown freely from all sides, allowing runners to splash their fellow runners or get colorful revenge on their friends, family members, and any cranky art-history teachers that happen to be walking by. Unlike some races that rank runners by time, Run or Dye only measures success in color and fun. While the safe-to-eat dyes should wash out of clothing, runners are encouraged to wear things they don't mind getting dirty, preferably in white, gray, or another neutral color to give the dyes maximum visibility.700 Raceway Blvd.Madison, IL US

Want to share the journey?
Me: genuine, almost always happy, ambitious, hardworking, playful. I am passionate, down to earth, endlessly optimistic and really try not to sweat the small stuff. I have a great career, amazing friends and loving, very cool parents. I've had a few significant relationships but not in a while and I would like to find that special someone to share life with. I moved to Los Angeles from Atlanta ten years ago and really enjoy living in southern California. There's a relaxed vibe on the westside that I've taken to and it doesn't hurt that my office is just blocks away from my home and both are close to the ocean. I manage technology for a custom men's clothier, so if we end up dating, you can be nicely outfitted ;) I recently celebrated my birthday on the slopes in Park City with close friends. It was a fun trip and I look forward to more active vacations. I love to travel but haven't nearly as much as I would have thought by now. So much to see and do! Where do you want to go? What do you want to do and see? Consider me on board! I enjoy having a balanced life. My weekdays are busy with a rewarding but demanding job so my evenings and weekends are mine (mostly). I cherish down time to relax, cook, read, get a massage, take a trip, or just catch up on what's on my dvr. I am able to reap the benefits of my life and experiences to guide me - this is truly a gift. I don't rattle easily as I've learned that things will be okay. Or, as I read recently, "don't worry, everything is going to be fantastic!" I optimistically look to new experiences as I love to learn, to grow, to feel stimulated and alive. In a relationship, I am loving, supportive, loyal and honest; a willing companion to explore and enjoy life with. I don't expect you to be perfect, just present and willing to communicate. We will figure out the details together.

I make a POST to a request with a File included in the request body.
In my method I retrieve this File
if(request.body.file("imageFile").getOrElse(null) != null) {
request.body.file("imageFile").map{ case FilePart(key, name, contentType, content) =>
val in:InputStream = new BufferedInputStream(new ByteArrayInputStream(content))
image = ImageIO.read(in)
} catch {
case e => Logger.debug(e.printStackTrace.toString); throw new Exception(e.getMessage)
If a File is included in the request body it tries to get it, else it just tries to get a file from S3.
else {
val in:InputStream = new BufferedInputStream(new ByteArrayInputStream(S3Storage.retrieveS3File("facebook.jpg").content))
image = ImageIO.read(in)
} catch {
case e:IOException => Logger.debug("Failed to retrieve facebook image"); throw new IOException(e.getMessage)
All this works fine when I run it on my computer, but when I check in this and test it on the amazon server the
image = ImageIO.read(in) gives me an error;
Can't read input file!.
For me this makes no sense since the file is either in the request body or it's grabbed from a S3 bucket.
I've debugged this code and in the production environment there is a file available there when the "read" is done.
Why cannot the file be read from the production environment?

Autonomously Generating An Ideal Kernel Configuration
Published on 10 April 2010 09:53 PM EDT
Written by
Michael Larabel
33 Comments
While most Linux users are fine with just using the kernel supplied by their distribution vendor, there are some enthusiasts and professional users who end up tweaking their kernel configuration extensively for their needs, particularly if they are within a corporate environment where the very best performance and reliability is demanded for a particular workload.
Unfortunately, with there being hundreds of different Linux kernel configuration options, this is often a deterrent for any hobbyist to sit down and invest a great deal of time in testing out the different combinations of kernel options to generate the best performance for one's needs. Even for the experienced professionals the process of tuning the kernel configuration for a specific workload can require significant man hours and manual testing.
But how would it be if you could find the optimal kernel configuration for your specific workload without any real human involvement? Well, it's possible to quite easily generate an ideal Linux kernel configuration in an autonomous manner.
Last October I shared how it was possible to
autonomously find performance regressions in the Linux kernel
. This was done by writing a module for the
Phoronix Test Suite
that hooked our testing framework into Git's bisect command to be able to autonomously traverse a Git repository and running some automated tests each step of the way looking for the lone commit that caused the targeted regression. This was a success and in a fully automated manner we were able to track down the individual commit that caused a severe performance drop in the disk performance for EXT4. This Phoronix Test Suite module could also be hooked in to find a regression in any other Git-managed code-base by simply adjusting a few test/code-specific bits.
Of course, this bisecting module isn't even needed if you use
where you can automatically have the targeted code based on a daily basis or even a per-commit basis, such as we have done with
benchmarking the Linux kernel
on a daily basis and even
benchmarking Ubuntu daily
in looking for performance changes. However, inspired to see what else could be delivered after writing the autonomous kernel regression finder, an autonomous kernel configuration optimizer has been conceived.
With this new module that I have been writing for Phoronix Test Suite 2.6 "Lyngen" over the weekend, it becomes possible to find the ideal kernel configuration options for your specific workload by what boils down to an automated feedback optimization loop. It's just a matter of supplying the module with the Linux kernel source code version you wish to use, what kernel configuration options you wish to test and with what values to use, and then the specific performance test(s) you want to cater your kernel towards. Following that, this Phoronix Test Suite module will go through the process of autonomously building the kernel in each configuration (currently this module is just supported on Ubuntu), rebooting each time, and then carrying out the tests.
Once the automated kernel testing has finished, all of the results will be analyzed -- again, in a completely autonomous manner -- and a report will be generated showing the impact that each kernel configuration option has on your specific workload of tests. It's really meant to be that easy!
The code and related documentation will be published shortly for Phoronix Test Suite 2.6 along with a few example kernel configurations that have been auto-generated showing some performance improvements that were automatically detected. In the mean time though, if you have any feedback on the concept or any other ideas, feel free to voice them in the forums or by contacting us. This module could also be adapted to test out different combinations of options for other pieces of the OS stack, like graphics driver options too.
Phoronix Test Suite 2.6
(codenamed "Lyngen") is expected to be officially released in May. Among
Phoromatic Tracker improvements
, this self-optimizing kernel configuration tester, and
other improvements
, there should also be
better Windows 7 support

US: World Champion bisexual boxer Emile Griffith dies aged 75
Post your comment
Comments on this article are now closed.
Reader comments
Quite a brave man to come out with those statements as a boxer in those days. Perhaps he should be an inspiration to younger sportsmen of all genres
I was a fan of his in my younger days. Tragic that he had to go through all that hassle and torment.
And yes it would have taken great courage for a man of his time and sport to have come out as far as he did.
In my experience, guys identifying as bi are incapable of falling in love with any one person. They require a poly amorous situation. Again, that is solely in my experience. I've dealt with this twice so far in life, and do not wish for a third.
Your experience is unfortunate, but you should refrain from trying to generalise from two data points, because it makes you appear to be prejudiced. Also, your comment has no relevance to the article.
From your comment I think you are the reason. Best sex I've had was with a Bi guy my first love was a bi guy I broke it off cause I knew he wanted kids.
the lack of comments on this article also makes me think he is too black and too working class to be taken seriously as a positive figure/inspiration to the white intellectuals who tend to decide who is inspirational/important/influential. This guy meant more to me than most 'important' gay writers etc
According to WIkipedia, Emile Griffith's professional boxing career spanned 1958 to 1976. So, another potential explanation for the lack of comments is that many readers of Pink News are too young to have been able to follow Emile Griffith's boxing career.
I get your point but the same applies to lots of other people that we do know and read about
These comments are un-moderated and do not necessarily represent the views of PinkNews. If you believe that a comment is inappropriate or libellous, please contact us.

Valley City State's men's and women's track and field enjoyed a great end to the 2014 indoor season at Thursday's Bemidji State University (Minn.) Beaver Twilight.
Both teams put up some great performances, but freshman Alicia VanSweringen set a new school record in the 60-meter high hurdles for the third time this season with a time of 10.45 seconds. VanSweringen's record is almost a second faster than the previous record she set two weeks ago. Not only did she run well for the program and herself, but her time earned a fifth-place finish.
Valley City State University head football coach Dennis McCulloch announced Feb. 14 that Maple Valley/Enderlin senior defensive end Dylan Claus is among six additional high school seniors who have signed letters of intent to attend classes at VCSU and play football for the Vikings this fall.
The new additions include two players from North Dakota, two from Arizona, and one from both California and Hawaii.
North Star Athletic Association commissioner Cory Anderson announced that Waldorf College (Iowa) will join the NSAA football conference beginning in fall 2014.
"It is with great pleasure that we add a seventh team to our football membership," Commissioner Anderson said. "The inclusion of Waldorf will jumpstart our league into new territory, allowing us to magnify our brand in the NAIA."
Waldorf, located in Forest City, Iowa, was previously of the Mid-States Football Association. The Warriors reside in the Midlands Collegiate Athletic Conference (MCAC) in other sports.
Valley City State's men's and women's indoor track teams competed in the Cobber Duels at Concordia College on Feb. 1, during which both the men and women managed 13 all-time indoor performance list-qualifying marks.
Valley City State University football has finalized its 2014 schedule.
Head coach Dennis McCulloch announced that the Vikings open the 10-game regular season with a Thursday night, Aug. 28 home game against rival University of Jamestown, the first of two meetings with the Jimmies. VCSU also plays new North Star Athletic Association additions Dickinson State and Mayville State twice, and Dakota State, Waldorf College, Morningside College and Presentation College once.

The paired butterflies are already yellow with August
A week ago it was between seventy and eighty degrees every day. People were saying we were having our second August, and sighing happily. I was missing fall, and also missing Maine and the real August.
The River-Merchant's Wife: A Letter
After Li Po
While my hair was still cut straight across my forehead
I played about the front gate, pulling flowers.
You came by on bamboo stilts, playing horse,
You walked about my seat, playing with blue plums.
And we went on living in the village of Chōkan:
Two small people, without dislike or suspicion.
At fourteen I married My Lord you.
I never laughed, being bashful.
Lowering my head, I looked at the wall.
Called to, a thousand times, I never looked back.
At fifteen I stopped scowling,
I desired my dust to be mingled with yours
Forever and forever, and forever.
Why should I climb the look out?
At sixteen you departed
You went into far Ku-tō-en, by the river of swirling eddies,
And you have been gone five months.
The monkeys make sorrowful noise overhead.
You dragged your feet when you went out.
By the gate now, the moss is grown, the different mosses,
Too deep to clear them away!
The leaves fall early this autumn, in wind.
The paired butterflies are already yellow with August
Over the grass in the West garden;
They hurt me.
I grow older.
If you are coming down through the narrows of the river Kiang,
Please let me know beforehand,
And I will come out to meet you
As far as Chō-fū-Sa.

Though the world with its manmade weather has gone crazy, this remains a heartstoppingly great poem, and these are equally wonderful photos -- esp. the second, with that horizontal spill of golden radiance.
That Boston Terrier will remain loyal forever, and will always come out to meet you, knowing your heart is in the right place.

CHESAPEAKE, VA (Catholic Online) - On this Labor Day weekend most of us take a break from what we sometimes call our day jobs. It is a unique secular holiday with profound Christian potential. Many gather for late summer cookouts and celebrations. Perhaps we get to sleep in a bit later than usual and relax from the frenzied pace of our contemporary pattern of living.
For many parents, Labor Day weekend marks the transition from the hectic pace of the summer to the new hectic pace of the school year. For Christians, Labor Day can - and should - be about much more than taking a break from work. We are invited to reflect upon the dignity of work, which is derived from the dignity of the worker.
The day presents us with an opportunity to examine how we view work. How do we understand our own labor in the light of what the Catholic Church proclaims about the dignity of all human work, no matter what kind, because it is done by human persons created in the Image and Likeness of God.
During his last years, Blessed John Paul II addressed a gathering of leaders of the Catholic Action movement in Italy on the Feast of St. Joseph the Worker and spoke of what he called the gospel of work. The word gospel means good news. Do we consider our work as good news? Or is it something we do for a paycheck?
One of the late Pope's favorite passages from the Second Vatican Council's Pastoral Constitution on the Role of the Church in the Modern World informed much of his writing and is worthy of consideration as we consider the dignity of work and the worker who engages in it:
The truth is that only in the mystery of the incarnate Word does the mystery of man take on light. For Adam, the first man, was a figure of Him Who was to come, namely Christ the Lord. Christ, the final Adam, by the revelation of the mystery of the Father and His love, fully reveals man to man himself and makes his supreme calling clear. It is not surprising, then, that in Him all the aforementioned truths find their root and attain their crown.
He who is "the image of the invisible God" (Col. 1:15) is Himself the perfect man. To the sons of Adam He restores the divine likeness which had been disfigured from the first sin onward. Since human nature as He assumed it was not annulled, by that very fact it has been raised up to a divine dignity in our respect too. For by His incarnation the Son of God has united Himself in some fashion with every man. He worked with human hands, He thought with a human mind, acted by human choice and loved with a human heart. Born of the Virgin Mary, He has truly been made one of us, like us in all things except sin. (G.S. #22)
In 1981 John Paul released an Encyclical letter entitled On Human Work which presents an inspiring teaching on the Christian vision of the dignity of all human work, its true meaning and value, and the dignity of the worker who engages in it. In the introductory paragraph he defined the very word work:
(W)ork means any activity by man, whether manual or intellectual, whatever its nature or circumstances; it means any human activity that can and must be recognized as work, in the midst of all the many activities of which man is capable and to which he is predisposed by his very nature, by virtue of humanity itself. Man is made to be in the visible universe an image and likeness of God himself, and he is placed in it in order to subdue the earth.
From the beginning therefore he is called to work. Work is one of the characteristics that distinguish man from the rest of creatures, whose activity for sustaining their lives cannot be called work. Only man is capable of work, and only man works, at the same time by work occupying his existence on earth. Thus work bears a particular mark of man and of humanity, the mark of a person operating within a community of persons. And this mark decides its interior characteristics; in a sense it constitutes its very nature.
We live in an age that has lost sight of the dignity of work - because we have lost sight of the dignity of the human worker. This loss is one more bad fruit of the rupture which is wrought by sin. In the industrial age, men and women were often reduced to mere instruments in a society that emphasized productivity over the dignity of the human person, the worker.
The technological age promised something different. However, it has failed to deliver on that promise.
Too often, men and women are still viewed as instruments and objects rather than persons and gifts. Even Science - a great gift meant to be placed at the service of the human person, human flourishing, the family and the common good - has often promoted a view of the human person as an object to be experimented on and disposed of at will.
This fundamental error lies at the root of the contemporary culture of death and use.
We need what St Paul rightly called a renewal of the mind (See, Romans 12:2).Blessed John Paul told the participants at that Catholic Action gathering that because "work has been profaned by sin and contaminated by egoism," it is an activity that "needs to be redeemed." His words are critical in this hour.
He reminded them that "Jesus was a man of work and that work enabled him to develop his humanity". He emphasized that "the work of Nazareth constituted for Jesus a way to dedicate himself to the 'affairs of the Father,'" witnessing that "the work of the Creator is prolonged" through work and that therefore "according to God's providential plan, man, by working, realizes his own humanity and that of others: In fact, work 'forms man and, in a certain sense, creates him."
He emphasized the need for work to be rescued "from the logic of profit, from the lack of solidarity, from the fever of earning ever more, from the desire to accumulate and consume." When the focus of work becomes subjected to what he called "inhuman wealth", he said, it becomes a "seductive and merciless idol." That rescue occurs when we "return to the austere words of the Divine Master: 'For what does it profit a man if he gains the whole world and loses or forfeits himself?'"
Finally, John Paul II reminded them that Jesus, the "Divine Worker of Nazareth" also reminds all of us that 'life is more than food' and that work is for man, not man for work. What makes a life great is not the entity of gain, nor the type of profession, or the level of the career. Man is worth infinitely more than the goods he produces or possesses."
What a profound and liberating message for this Labor Day! The Catholic Catechism instructs us:
Human work proceeds directly from persons created in the image of God and called to prolong the work of creation by subduing the earth, both with and for one another. Hence work is a duty: "If anyone will not work, let him not eat.
Work honors the Creator's gifts and the talents received from him. It can also be redemptive. By enduring the hardship of work in union with Jesus, the carpenter of Nazareth and the one crucified on Calvary, man collaborates in a certain fashion with the Son of God in his redemptive work. He shows himself to be a disciple of Christ by carrying the cross, daily, in the work he is called to accomplish. Work can be a means of sanctification and a way of animating earthly realities with the Spirit of Christ.
In work, the person exercises and fulfills in part the potential inscribed in his nature. The primordial value of labor stems from man himself, its author and its beneficiary. Work is for man, not man for work..... Everyone should be able to draw from work the means of providing for his life and that of his family, and of serving the human community. The primordial value of labor stems from man himself, its author and beneficiary. By means of his labor man participates in the work of creation. Work united to Christ can be redemptive. (See,CCC # 2247 et.seq.)
A Catholic vision of work views it in light of the Incarnation of Jesus Christ: God became a human person! The early Church Father, Gregory the Theologian (Nazianzus), reflecting on the Incarnation, proclaimed "Whatever was not assumed was not healed!" The insight is profound and has the potential to revolutionize the way we view our own work!
The entire human experience was assumed by Jesus Christ, including our labor, our human work - no matter what form that human work takes. It was transformed by Christ the worker! The Son of God worked. Even as a child he learned from Joseph, the carpenter, and worked with wood, with His Holy hands. Certainly he sweated, got dirty and even experienced tedium at times, but because He was in communion with His Heavenly Father all of his work was joined to the Father's work.
That is the same relationship we now have with the Father through our Baptism into Christ. Certainly, this Jesus, whom who the author of Hebrews said "knew no sin" was not suffering its punishment when he engaged in that manual labor in the workshop of Nazareth! Though there is biblical support that the drudgery or "sweat" of work is connected to the fracture in the order of the universe occasioned by sin (see Gen 3:19).
However work itself was NOT the punishment for sin. We need to be absolutely clear about this.
Adam and Eve worked in the garden and it brought them great joy. For the Christian, work is meant to become a participation in the continuing redemptive mission of Jesus. Jesus viewed his entire life and mission as work. He was always doing the work of the One who sent Him (John 9:3-4). We are invited by grace to live in the same way.
The early Christians knew the dignity of all human work. Even their early worship became known as liturgy which literally means the work of the Church. For them, the real world was not a place to be avoided - it was their workshop! They were there to bring all of its inhabitants to Baptism and inclusion in Christ and then prepare the real world for His Real return, through their prayer, their witness, their worship and their work.
The Incarnation, the saving Life, Death, Resurrection and Ascension of Jesus Christ, the Paschal mystery - began a process of transformation- not only in His followers, but also in the cosmos created through Him and for Him. In fact, creation is now being re-created in Him. The work of Jesus' redemption continues through the Church - which is placed in that creation as a seed of its transfiguration.
This view is part of what St. Paul calls the plan and a mystery of God, to bring all things together under heaven and on earth in Christ (see, e.g. Eph 1: 9-10). All things were created in Christ (see Col 1:15-20), and are now being re-created as His work continues through His Body, the Church, of which we are members.
For the Christian, work is an invitation to participate in this extraordinary plan - when it is joined to Jesus Christ. No matter what we are doing we are, as the Apostle wrote, to "do it as unto the Lord" (see Col 3). Our work then changes the world, both within us and around us. This means all work - not just the so called spiritual or religious stuff, has redemptive value.
Remember, Jesus Christ, God Incarnate, did not just do what we too often think of as the spiritual stuff during his earthly ministry. This mistaken notion of separating out the spiritual and the real often displays in us a failure to graps the meaning of the Incarnation. All human work is holy when it is done in the Lord.
St. Paul captured the hope of all creation when, in the eighth chapter of his letter to the Romans he reminded us that all of creation groans for the full revelation of the sons and daughters of God. We can have a new relationship with the entire created order - beginning now- because we live in the Son, through whom and for whom it was all created and is now being re-created.
Let us ask the Holy Spirit to renew our minds. Let us ask for the grace we need to begin to live this gospel or good news of work in the way in which we engage in all human labor. We are invited to receive work as a gift and invitation to participate in God's loving, creative and redemptive work. Christians need to bear witness to its value just as we bear witness to the inherent value and dignity of every human worker. This is a vital part of our witness to an age which has lost its way. Happy Labor Day.

"I bought these cards to hand out for my daughter's preschool Valentine's Day party. The little girl on the heart looks exactly like my daughter! Based on someone else's review, I increased the font size inside the card and it was perfect. I also had a great experience with Tiny Prints customer service!"
"I got these cards for my 2-year old son to pass out to his pre-school class and teachers and family members. They are beautifully printed on soft thick paper. I love the size, they are pretty small, but come with their own tiny envelopes! Very happy with my purchase."
"This is our second year ordering class valentines from Tiny Prints and we really like them They are adorably tiny, personalized and they really have designs for everyone. I just like for my daughter to have something other than the grocery store choice that everyone else has."
"I ordered these in advance and they are adorable. The size is small, so you can't mail them, but they are perfect for handing out. Way better than store bought valentines!"
"I was very happy with these Valentine Day cards and the prompt service I received, I will definitely purchase from Tiny Prints again soon!"

Please bear in mind that Auction homes can be a great deal but you need to do your homework, especially with a title search, and usually need to be able to pay cash for the whole thing within a certain # of days.
A brief rule of thumb for the auction is: "Never buy at less than a 33% discount from current market SOLD values". This may sound like a huge discount - but it's often what you need to cover all sorts of unforeseen costs and STILL get a nice discount off market.
You will wish to understand how Lien priority works. This may help:
Note: there is PRE-Sale right of redemption in IN. This can be something to consider instead of bidding against others - and can help ensure the place isn't wrecked when you get it.
Consider going to the next auction and watching the proceedings. There will likely be a select # of people that are investors (or represent investors), are there every time, and really know the score. They won't be hard to spot, and often talk to each other after the auction.
But ... what I really DO recommend is for you two to find a discounted house in a good area from a distressed seller or estate sale. Then you can get a really good look at it, get it inspected, and get a good deal. I'm not saying that 1st time home buyers shouldn't do foreclosures - but you'll need to be patient and learn a fair bit so that you can make an informed decision and keep your risk factors tolerable.
Has a list of foreclosure auction companies with there local listings.
The other answers are very helpful. They have informed you of a lot, but also you have to keep in mind you have to be ready with your funds the day of the auction. If you have to get a loan to purchase the home you also have to keep in mind that the home has to be habitable based on the type of financing you receive. You might want to contact a REALTOR to take you into some homes and help educate you a little about the buying process before you decide that an auction is the way to go. If you would like further assistance I specialize in First Time Home Buyers. Good Luck and happy hunting!

India Inc to policymakers: Shape up, or we'll ship out

Mumbai: After the rapid slide in the rupee this year, the message from the country's corporate titans to the government is clear: shape up and fix the problems or more companies will expand their business abroad and deprive the economy of investment.
Many, such as entrepreneur Kiran Mazumdar-Shaw, are already doing just that.
Ranked by Forbes as one of the world's most powerful women, she is investing about $200 million in a manufacturing plant in Malaysia for her biotechnology firm Biocon Ltd to offset unreliable power and water supplies back home. It already makes more than half its sales overseas.
"If India had better infrastructure and more availability of power I may not have gone abroad," said Shaw, who followed in her father's footsteps with a master's degree in brewing in Australia before setting up Biocon in her garage in Bangalore 35 years ago.
"We don't have enough power, we don't have enough water. So some of these projects where we need water and power, I will do it in Malaysia because that's where it is abundant," Shaw, who is ranked 92 in India's rich list with a net worth of $625 million, told Reuters in an interview.
She is one of many top entrepreneurs voicing frustration that policymakers failed to keep economic reforms rolling over the past decade, which they contend would have prevented India from stumbling into its deepest economic crisis since 1991, when it was forced to pledge the country's gold reserves in exchange for international loans.
Economic growth has almost halved in pace to less than 5 percent in the past six years, a flood of cash leaving the country has led to a record current account deficit and combined with a rout of emerging markets, has sent the rupee into a tail spin. At its record low of 68.85 per dollar in late August, it was down around 20 percent from the end of 2012, the worst performer among Asia's currencies. It has since risen slightly to 65.24.
The lack of reform and infrastructure, painfully slow decision making and red tape are common complaints of corporate India, but this time they could come at a cost as the rupee crisis shows businesses how vulnerable they are.
The political cost could hit the Congress-led ruling coalition at national elections that must be called by May. An opinion poll on Friday showed nearly three-quarters of Indian business leaders want opposition figure Narendra Modi to run the country after the election.
Modi is in the political ascendancy after turning the western state of Gujarat into the country's economic star with double-digit growth and investor friendly policies.
The economic cost is underlined by Indian Inc.'s overseas direct investment. Including bank guarantees issued to overseas units, it stood at more than $21 billion in the first seven months of this year, up 38 percent from the same period of 2012.
That is set to increase as Indian companies see the advantages of diversifying globally.
In a bid to reduce its dependence on a slowing Indian auto market and get a foothold in China and the United States, Apollo Tyres agreed in June to pay $2.5 billion for U.S.-based Cooper Tire & Rubber Co , which was nearly three times its own market value at that time.
Yusuf Hamied, the billionaire chief of drugmaker Cipla Ltd, which in July completed the acquisition of South Africa's Cipla Medpro for about $460 million, is expanding his company's base in Algeria and Morocco as part of a North Africa thrust.
Aditya Birla Group, the $40 billion diversified conglomerate that gets more than half its sales from overseas operations, plans to invest $1 billion setting up a chemical plant in the United States, local media reported last month.
A spokeswoman for the group, whose business interests range from mining and metals to financial services and telecoms, was unavailable to comment.

The Reserve Bank of India last month reduced companies' overseas investment limit to 100 percent of their net worth from 400 percent, part of a drive to curb dollar outflows and prop up the rupee.
While these steps could put a brake on overseas investments in the short term, they might not halt the outbound march in the longer term.
"The government has to give us infrastructure - not for a day, not for six months - there has to be long-term infrastructure, policies that are sustainable so that we can then also plan accordingly," said Cipla's Hamied.
"In healthcare there are five ministries involved - chemicals and fertilisers, finance ministry, law ministry, health ministry, commerce ministry - there is no nodal body. Who do you go to for infrastructure or for advice or anything?"
Hamied is particularly concerned about the impact on the domestic pharmaceutical business of a new pricing policy that has increased the number of drugs deemed essential that are subject to price caps.
Many industrialists complain that delays in approving projects due to differences among various government departments and red tape make it tougher for India Inc to set up manufacturing operations in the country than overseas.
"It is becoming more and more difficult, in any sector. Look at the real estate sector, the amount of commissions, the amount of bureaucracy that is there is too much," said billionaire Ajay Piramal, chairman of the healthcare-to-real estate conglomerate Piramal Group. "We need to have clear rules of business ... unfortunately that's not happening."
With the prospect of a populist spending splurge ahead of the national elections, industrialists like billionaire Rahul Bajaj, chairman of motorcycles and three-wheeler maker Bajaj Auto are not betting on any changes soon.
"I believe the government will keep taking short-term measures, which will have limited effect," Bajaj said. "The way things are going, the earlier the elections the better."
