Eureka Seven

I think it would be really nice if we could get some of the Eureka Seven manga.
We have all of the anime DVDs, which I think is awesome, but the manga contains an alternate, deeper storyline that I've fallen in love with. The art is beautiful and the volumes seem to be widely available (I've seen them at Borders and whatnot) so it'd be great if we could think about this awesome series ^^

Thanks for the suggestion on this! I'll take a look into getting it and let you know. I didn't even know there was a manga out for this...

Are these the same headphones that come with iPod touch 3g 32GB?
I can't help but notice the negative reviews on this product, but the earbuds that came with my touch worked great for six months before I lost them. I'm hessitating to buy them if they're not the same and are as bad as the reviews say. If they are the same i don't mind buying them as replacement.

Brad Grey, chairman of Brillstein-Grey Ent., has been named chairman/ceo of Viacom's Paramount Motion Picture Group. Grey assumes the titles of chairman and ceo in a newly broadened role. In this position, he will have ultimate authority on film development and production as well as business operations, worldwide.
Grey, one of the entertainment industry's most successful entrepreneurs and a leading television and film producer and talent manager, will assume his new role on or before March 1, 2005. He will be based at Paramount's Hollywood studio and will oversee all the motion picture operations of Paramount and will report directly to Tom Freston, co-president/co-coo of Viacom Inc.
"It's a thrill to announce Brad Grey as the next leader in the great history of Paramount Pictures, Freston said. Brad's integrity and values are matched by his exceptional vast entertainment experience and common sense. Brad's smarts, style and instincts have made him a winner time after time over the years. He's an entrepreneur, a manager, a dealmaker, a hit maker and has that combination of creative business acumen. He's the ideal leader for the challenges of motion picture business today and tomorrow.
My top priority is to make Paramount even better than it is today. I want the studio to be the best place for creative people, a place where they can do their best work. Brad shares this vision and his unparalleled abilities in this area will make this happen."
Sumner Redstone, chairman/ceo, Viacom, said, "I couldn't be more pleased to welcome Brad Grey to the Viacom family. He is exactly what we need: a dealmaker, a successful entrepreneur, and a man with great outreach to the creative community. He has an enviable track record in the entertainment industry and he is a fabulous addition to our team."
Grey said, "This is a great company, with a great motion picture legacy and a great mandate for the future. The motion pictures made by Paramount and the other great Hollywood studios entertain the entire world. To be able to share that experience and responsibility, and the creative process behind it, is an opportunity few get. I am grateful for it. I look forward to working with Tom, along with Sumner and Les, the Paramount team, and the many talented artists in our community."
Freston said, "I want to thank Sherry Lansing for her great leadership these past 12 years. She has had a truly legendary run and leaves behind a proud legacy. I must say that the last year has been very exciting as Sherry and her team have infused the studio with a new spirit and have brought many great new people to the studio. Paramount Pictures is a healthy and exciting place right now. In fact, it is having one of its best quarters with the success of LEMONY SNICKET'S A SERIES OF UNFORTUNATE EVENTS and THE SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS MOVIE. Brad is inheriting a terrific slate of pictures, such as WAR OF THE WORLDS, ELIZABETHTOWN and THE LONGEST YARD."
Grey is currently chairman of Brillstein-Grey Ent. (BGE). BGE's affiliated companies include Brillstein-Grey Management, Brad Grey Television and Plan B, a motion picture production company in partnership with Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston.
Grey, through Plan B, recently completed production of the motion picture CHARLIE AND THE CHOCOLATE FACTORY, a retelling of the classic Roald Dahl tale, starring Johnny Depp, and directed by Tim Burton, which will be released this summer by Warner Bros. He is also a producer of the upcoming THE DEPARTED, a motion picture to be directed by Martin Scorsese, starring Leonardo DiCaprio opposite Matt Damon. In addition, over the last 20 years, Grey and his company have produced some of the most popular and most honored series on television, including the Emmy Award-winning hit, THE SOPRANOS. Other series include: THE LARRY SANDERS SHOW, NEWSRADIO, JUST SHOOT ME, ACCORDING TO JIM and REAL TIME WITH BILL MAHER. Brillstein- Grey's extensive list of clients includes, among many others: Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox Arquette, Nicolas Cage, The Honorable Rudolph Giuliani, Lorne Michaels, Brad Pitt and Adam Sandler.
Grey is a Golden Globe and Emmy Award winner, a four-time winner of the George Foster Peabody Award as an exec producer. He is an 18-time Emmy Award nominee.

This very rare celluloid carnival prize monkey is Circa 1920. He has a celluloid hands, head and feet and on the back of his hat it is marked Japan. Some fur loss but overall great condition. There's a hole on the left side of his mouth but I believe this was for a pipe to be inserted in and not damage. How ever we do not have the pipe. He has strings attached that would raise his hands and feet to either make him dance or give him puppet motion. I have seen the dolls but I have never seen these celluloid monkeys. Rare to have his glasses still attached. A great vintage carnival collectible.

Natural Hazards
Journal of the International Society for the Prevention and Mitigation of Natural Hazards
Natural Hazards is devoted to original research work on all aspects of natural hazards, including the forecasting of catastrophic events, risk management, and the nature of precursors of natural and technological hazards.
Although hazards can originate in different sources and systems, such as atmospheric, hydrologic, oceanographic, volcanologic, seismic, neotectonic, the environmental impacts are equally catastrophic. This warrants a close interaction between different scientific and operational disciplines, aimed at enhancing the mitigation of hazards.
Coverage includes such categories of hazard as atmospheric, climatological, oceanographic, storm surges, tsunamis, floods, snow, avalanches, landslides, erosion, earthquakes, volcanoes, man-made and technological, as well as risk assessment.

Yankees send two prospects to Indians to complete Kerry Wood trade
Oct 21, 2010, 2:19 PM EDT
Just prior to the July 31 trading deadline the Yankees acquired Kerry Wood from the Indians for what was believed to be a player to be named later or cash. Today the two sides completed the trade and it turns out Cleveland gets two players: Right-hander Andrew Shive and infielder Matt Cusick.
Cusick was the Astros' 10th-round pick in 2007 and came to the Yankees in a mid-2008 trade for LaTroy Hawkins. He hit just .243/.318/.342 in 88 games between Double-A and Triple-A as a 24-year-old this season, so he's a long shot to have any sort of big-league career.
Shive was the Yankees' 35th-round pick in 2008, but missed all of 2009 following arm surgery and struggled at Single-A in his return this season. He posted some nice numbers in the low minors prior to the injury, but like Cusick the 6-foot-6, 260-pound right-hander is far from a significant prospect. Cleveland also saved about $1.5 million in the swap.
As for Wood, he posted a 0.69 ERA in 26 innings for the Yankees in the regular season and has allowed one run in six innings so far this postseason. His contract has a sure-to-be-declined $11 million option for 2011.
- sdelmonte - Oct 21, 2010 at 2:48 PM
It's too bad the Indians can't insist that they should get more for Wood, since he's been a key addition to the Yankees. But trades never work that way, do they?
- bxcheer - Oct 21, 2010 at 5:32 PM
So I essentially the Yankees got Wood for a bucket of balls?

I'm currently 1/2 leasing a pony, and she's boarded somewhere in a large pen (grass, with a dirt section) and it's dry - the drainage is really good.
For a while she was quite thrushy, but my leaser and I went and bought her that coppertox stuff (not the exact brand, but same deal - it's green and helps with thrush and fungal infections of the foot) and applied it daily - every second day. Her thrush cleared up, and a farrier came out to trim her feet. (I've seen some farriers do some pretty bad things to horses and their feet, so I made sure I was there when he trimmed to watch, and discuss the thrush to make sure that her feet were totally healthy again. He said she has good feet, but I should continue to apply the thrush ointment, which I did).
I just went on holidays, and the thrush had started to come back before I left - so my leaser put on the coppertox stuff while I was away. Today we both went out together, and the pony is shedding ...3 of her frogs I think, and is slightly thrushy. I'm quite sure she isn't foundering, but her foot is warm around the frog area and she is obviously sore. (Especially when I touch her foot and press on the frog lightly). I lunged her out for a few minutes to see how she was moving - and she's not showing the soreness very much in her movement - but you can see it slightly.
Does anybody have any experience with horses losing their frogs / having them peel or shed? Or Thrush?
I'm thinking the ointment we've been using isn't enough, and I'd like to stop the problem before it gets worse. Any feedback, questions, suggestions etc. would be greatly valued. I don't want to do more than lunge her lightly until her feet are no longer sore.
I've been doing some research too and one website said
Quote:Arrows point at "shedding" frog which is actually a fungus infection. After several soaks with laundry borax, the frog will quickly grow in plumper, and will push the heels farther apart; the heels might spread 1/2 to 3/4 inch (13 - 20 mm) within a month or two.

Standardized Linux gains support

Standards help Linux avoid Unix fateAugust 16, 2002
Red Hat 8, SuSE 8.1, SCO Group OpenLinux 3.1.1 and MandrakeSoft 9 ProSuite all comply with the LSB's guidelines, according to the Free Standards Group, which oversees the LSB certification process.
The standards effort is an important part of ensuring Linux doesn't "fork" into multiple incompatible versions, as happened with Unix. The first LSB certifications arrived in August.
But while the certification helps keep dramatic differences from emerging, analysts and company representatives say it's not enough to guarantee that software designed with Red Hat Linux in mind will also work on SuSE, or vice-versa. A program such as a database, for instance, taps deep into Linux features that aren't governed by the LSB.
The Free Standards Group announced the opening of a second Linux certification program to ensure compliance with the OpenI18N standard, which governs how software is built to work with many different languages. The standard, formerly called Li18nux, covers such features as options for different currency, date formats, paper sizes and writing directions.

The Brown-Headed Cowbird has a wide range along the North American continent. It can be found in thickets, pastures, woodland edges and residential areas.
The female does not build her own nest. Instead, she waits until another bird temporarily leaves its nest of eggs, then she places her eggs in the nest with the other eggs.
When the other bird returns to its nest, it will sit on all of the eggs, unaware that some do not belong there!
Not only will the other bird incubate the eggs, it will also raise the young as its own until they are ready to leave the nest!
Birdfeeders.com is your leading online source for wild bird feeders, feeder accessories, and bird baths. We offer the broadest and deepest set of quality bird feeders to make your wild bird watching experience even more enjoyable!

NEWTOWN, Conn. (AP) - Family members are relaying what children told them about the shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut.
Stephen Delgiadice says his 8-year-old daughter heard two big bangs and teachers told her to get in a corner. His daughter is fine.
He says the shooting is alarming because his family always considered Newtown to be the safest place in America.
Seventeen-year-old Mergim Bajraliu heard the gunshots echo from his home and raced to check on his 9-year-old sister at the school. He says his sister heard a scream come over the intercom at one point. And he says teachers were shaking and crying as they came out of the building.

of objects
Jingdezhen, Jiangxi Province, China
Jar and Cover mounted as a pot-pourri 1720-40: mount: 2nd quarter 18th century
Porcelain with celadon glaze painted in white slip and underglaze blue | 34.6 x 31.7 x 21.6 cm | RCIN 2306
This single Chinese celadon jar was probably originally of the ovoid form with a raised neck and lid known as a 'ginger jar'. It has been cut at the neck and the raised section removed from both the jar and the lid. It is decorated with deer and with pine, bamboo and prunus, the 'three friends of winter'. After importation into France the jar was mounted as a pot-pourri with six separate gilt bronze castings, probably made by the lost-wax process and very well chased and burnished. The eight 'eyes' in the neck mount allowed the escape of the scent contained within the jar.
In the inventory of Madame de Pompadour's possessions taken after her death in 1764, her apartments at the Hôtel d'Evreux in Paris contained (in the 'première antichambre') 'un pot-pourri d'ancienne porcelaine Celadon avec des desseins bleus, garnis de deux ances de bronze doré' valued at 100 livres. A further pair of similar vases was included in the L.-J. Gaignat sale of 1769.
Catalogue entry from Royal Treasures, A Golden Jubilee Celebration, London 2002
ProvenanceProbably that listed in store in the 1826 inventory of Brighton Pavilion as 'A Pot Pourri bowl & cover sea green, blue & white trees & flowers ormolu flower top pierced rim scroll handles & base 14 In'. All the mounts appear to have been regilded.

I have just recently moved to Seattle and am looking to get out and meet some new friends and hopefully that special someone who can challenge me and press my buttons. Describe myself, well, in short I'm from a small town in Montana who needed something more than what it had to offer when I got out of high school. Moved to Denver where I went to culinary school and eventually became a chef with a great company. I have been able to live in some great cities like SLC, Portland and now here which all have had so many great experiences. First date will not be a movie where we sit there in silence. Something casual and fun where we can get to know each other and have great conversation. I'm looking for someone who is confident with themselves and is sarcastic with a great sense of humor while being able to laugh at themselves. I am good guy who is looking to have a fun, drama free relationship where no games will be played. Hopefully thats you

I was a first time homebuyer and I highly recommend James Campbell for your real estate need. James took me around and to looked at several properties and he made me feel as if I was his only client. It is very difficult to get into contract right now around the Modesto area since there are so many buyers and very few properties. After writing only a few offers, James was able to get me into contract on the exact type of home I was looking for in a great neighborhood. He even helped me beat out 15 other offers! Overall, I had a great experience working with James and I know you will too!

Ratings & Reviews
James helped my husband and myself do the impossible...short sale our home! I thought the chances of us getting out of our home after almost 2 years was to foreclose and the whole idea made me ill. However, after discussing with James and our mortgage lender, it was made evident that we COULD short sale. This gave us the opportunity to save our credit some and decrease the turn over time to buy another home again in the future. James helped by giving us one on one personal attention and guidance with collecting and filling out all of the multiple paperwork. He made the phone calls to the mortgage lender saving us hours on the phone repeating the same information over and over again. He then helped us and the bank by selling our home himself and meanwhile, made sure to make us still feel like it was OUR home by giving us our privacy and respect in regards to showing the home to prospective buyers. Not only is James dedicated and hardworking, he is also thoughtful, genuine and trustworthy. I would recommend him and his expertise to anyone out there looking to short sale, foreclose or simply looking to purchase a home. Thank you James for everything!!!
James Campbell is an excellent agent! My husband and I speak from experience with Mr. Campbell. We purchased a house through James Campbell and he did an excellent job for us! Our son also purchased a house through James and he did an excellent job for him too!
James Campbell is honest, hardworking, and very knowledgeable. We have referred some of our friends and family to James and they have been very impressed with him as well!
James was the best agent I have ever had the pleasure of working with. He went above and beyond to help prepare and sell the home. I would highly recommend him to anyone.
James was very patient with me, I looked at over 35 homes before deciding on the home I wanted to purchase. James constantly feed me new listings that meet my criteria and was always willing to manage his schedule around mine. I have refferred James to a few friends simply because he cares and takes the necessary time, he understands this is a huge investment and does not treat you like a number.

The wheatears are birds of the genus Oenanthe. They were formerly considered to be members of the thrush family Turdidae, but are now more commonly placed in the flycatcher family Muscicapidae. This is an Old World group, but the Northern Wheatear has established a foothold in eastern Canada and Greenland.
Oenanthe is also the name of a plant genus, the water dropworts, and is derived from the Greek ainos "wine" and anthos "flower", from the wine-like scent of the flowers. In the case of the wheatear, it references the fact that the type species, the Northern Wheatear, returns to Greece in the spring just as the grapevines blossom.
They are terrestrial insectivorous passerine birds of open, often dry, country . They often nest in rock crevices or disused burrows.
Northern species are long-distance migrants, wintering in Africa.
Wheatears are typically larger than the European Robin. Most species have characteristic black and white or red and white markings on their rumps or their long tails.
Most species are strongly sexually dimorphic; only the male has the striking plumage patterns characteristic of the genus, though the females share the white or red rump patches.
Its English name has nothing to do with wheat or ears, but is a bowdlerised form of white-arse, which refers to its prominent white rump.
The wheatear species are:

HAZARD, Ky (WYMT) - The problems are not over for the Kentucky River Regional Jail. New allegations have surfaced in a lawsuit against the jail claiming another man was beaten and nothing was done about it.
Gary Hill is the plaintiff in the case and his lawyer, Justin Noble, said prisoners have rights too.
"He was beat up, kicked in the head and punched in the head. He was tied to a chair and continued to be beat on by the guards," said Noble.
Noble described what his client experienced back in 2012 and said it was unacceptable. In a grievance report filed by Hill after the incident, he wrote, "Damon Hickman and another guard entered my cell. He struck me in the face then kicked me in the head several times".
"You cannot just go around beating on people just because they are in jail. These are government workers and they work for the taxpayers. They do not have a right to do just what they want to do," said Noble.
In an unrelated case, Hickman faces manslaughter charges. He is accused of beating Larry Trent to death back in July with the help of another guard, William Howell.
Kentucky River Regional Jail Administrator Tim Kilburn said he could not comment at this time about the allegations against the jail. However, in an interview with WYMT earlier this year, he claimed the center had been incident free for years. A claim Noble strongly disagrees with.
"Mr. Hill filed a grievance report with the jail. They have the grievance report. So there is a history of beatings and grievance reports being filed at the jail. By them stating that this is the only incident in a few years is absolutely not true," said Noble.
He added that Hill just wants his day in court.
The lawsuit names not only Damon Hickman as a defendant but also Tim Kilburn, among other agencies.

With mapped domain (Sub-Site) I can't post or delete activity streams. If I change back to the sub folder url all seems fine and I can post/delete items from the activity.
Any idea what may be causing this issue?

Lagerfeld Classic by Lagerfeld
It is very warm, very old-smelling; not in a bad way, but in the way of an old house or an old theatre smells; a smell of faded beauty and gentler times. This is talcum powder galore. This is the smell of a world without mobile phones and definitely no internet. Not everyone will like it and not many people will dare wearing it (I don't think I would dare, for that matter), but it is a distinct, powerful classic fragrance, bold and expertly structured.

Anna's Answer
2008-11-01 by David von Schlichten
In Lectionary Homiletics, Anna Carter Florence points out an instructive lesson in Matthew 23: that Jesus tends to lead us away from criticizing about and harranguing against others and toward reforming ourselves.
I was wondering what could be done to help McCain supporters feel less anxiety about Barack Obama, who will probably win the election. Perhaps the above guidance from Matthew 23 would serve to reduce that anxiety.

Stones, Joshua and Obama as the Anti-Christ
2008-10-30 by David von Schlichten
Thank you to Dave Davis for his solid blog entries. There is much here with which to construct a sermon. Thank you, Dave. Readers, scroll down to read Dave's entries.
Especially compelling is the idea that we Christians are to be stones who proclaim and embody God's faithfulness to the world.
I have some parishioners who think Barack Obama is the anti-Christ. They haven't used that term, but I can hear the implication in their words and tone. They talk aout him being scary. They dislike him being called a Messiah (I do, too, actually), and one parishioner said to me, "People need to read Revelations" (why do people tend to pluralize that word?). Another parishioner said that Obama is playing God.
I do not think that Obama is the anti-Christ or the Messiah; I simply think he is an intelligent, articulate, talented person of integrity who will make a strong, albeit flawed, president. I thank God for him.
Can the stone-imagery from the first lesson help to reduce anxiety that some people have about Barack Obama? What other imagery and language can help to mitigate that anxiety?
Yours in Christ,
David von Schlichten, Lectionary Blog Moderator
Stone Gatherers
2008-10-30 by Dave Davis
How much of the text do you read? How much more of the story do you tell? When it comes to preaching Old Testament narratives, all of us wrestle with the questions. The practical questions of time and how much the listeners can absorb are real. If we're honest, most of us can't retell an Old Testament story with the skill of Walter Brueggemann. But there is so much more to this story of crossing over the Jordan. My hunch is that on any given Sunday, especially on a communion Sunday, the role of the ark bearers provides more than enough grist for one sermon. We all have to save something for next week, or the next sermon, or the next sermon on crossing the Jordan.
But this Sunday I will keep going into Joshua chapter 4. The twelve stone gathers are tugging at my imagination. More to the point, it is the role of remembering and telling the next generation of God's faithfulness. The Sunday closest to All Saints' Day and a celebration of the Lord's Supper both point to such remembering. I have also been thinking all week about the role of the community of faith in this volatile election/economic cycle.
After the entire nation had crossed over the Jordan, Joshua appointed twelve men, one from each of the tribes of Israel. They were instructed to go back into the middle of the Jordon, as the waters were still all heaped up, and each take a stone. They were to take the stones from right from below the feet of the ark bearers and they were to carry the stones over to their respective camps. Each was to pass before the ark, take a stone, and then carry the stone up on the shoulders back to camp. Each was carry a stone like the priests where "shouldering" the ark. Each was to bring the stone right into the center of camp, the center of community, the center of life. Each stone was to be a sign. And in good liturgical fashion (like Passover and the Shema), the stone carriers were to tell their children about the time the waters of the Jordan were cut off in front of the ark and the whole nation crossed over on dry land. They were to tell their children about what God had done.
V.9 tells of Joshua setting up a memorial of stones right in the middle of the Jordan. In my NRSV that verse is parenthetical. It doesn't seem like a comment to be set a part or considered as an aside. In fact, the faithful probably remember Joshua's twelve stones more. It would seem that the memorial there in the Jordan would be more important than one stone sitting around each camp. But it's those "scattered stones" I think about.
The preacher can do a whole lot with the stone signs. From rocks and stones starting to cry out in the gospels to stones stacked up along the way for fellow pilgrims to children having a favorite rock sitting on the shelf, there is no shortage of stone imagery upon which the preacher can build. But not to be lost in the Jordan's crossing, is the stone sign being carried back to each camp, to each tribe, to each community. Just as the ark bearers carried the presence of God knee deep into the waters of life, the stone bearers went right into the center of camp life and dropped the sign that tells of God's faithfulness and points to God's leading, God's protection, God's plan. In every community, to every generation, there will be sign.
My guess is that every pastor/preacher is worried about budgets and stewardship and families in the congregation who are struggling right now. But if there is one place where we should gather and there would be no fear no panic, it is when the church gathers for worship. Maybe we are called to be stone gathers of sorts, proclaimers of the Gospel who carry the sign of God's faithfulness right into the vortex of life, amid the tumult of the waters. We drop the sign, we point to God with us, we remember God's faithfulness.
As with the economy, so it is with the election. As with every Presidential election, there will be much to remember, much that our children will study for years to come. But what do we want our children to remember about these days and the church's role and the faithfulness of God. There is so much about the election that demands our attention, including the role of faith and the faith community. When our children ask in time to come, what will we say about this part of the journey?
If the church is the body of Christ, if the community of faith is the hands and the face of Christ in the world, if the church in its witness points and embodies the very presence of God, then, it would seem, that we become the stones. Through our collective discipleship, our words and our actions, we remember the faithfulness of God. In every camp, in every community, in every generation.
This will be my last post…..blessings on your sermon writing and our shared call to proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Ark Bearing
2008-10-29 by Dave Davis
I have been thinking about the two sets of folks that received a significant assignment from Joshua here at the crossing of the Jordan: the ark bearers and the stone gatherers. True, the preacher has to move into chapter 4 to get to the twelve men selected from every tribe who then went out to get the stones, but the remembering part of the story seems as important as the crossing itself. This morning I'm focusing on the priests who carried the ark. Tomorrow I will come back and reflect some more on those picking up rocks.
I wonder if the priests knew the complete job description when it came to carrying the ark. You can picture how it was carried; poles that ran underneath and supported the ark stretching from should to shoulder among the selected priests. At the funeral home, when describing a different task of bearing, they would call it "shouldering the casket." Ark bearing was a quite a high risk job. The very presence of God inhabited the ark there upon their shoulders. On this particular day they were to step into an overflowing river expecting their toes to hit dry land before their ankles got wet.
Notice that everyone else was told to keep their distance (3:4). That brings us back to Uzzah again in II Samuel, chapter 6. But these ark bearers were told to step off, step out, step in, bearing the very presence of God. John Calvin wrote in defense of the ark bearers, "it was impossible to observe the line of the banks or the ford." At harvest time, it would have been such a flood condition, Calvin mused "that the slime spread far and wide." Yet, as the first toes started to get wet, the rest of the waters rose into a "single heap." (3:13)
The entire nation of Israel passed by the ark there in the middle of the Jordan and they crossed over. The people walked over on dry land with the liturgical words of Joshua echoing in their ears; "sanctify yourselves; for tomorrow the Lord will do wonders among you." (3:5)
With his sense of total depravity, Calvin would no doubt agree that the slime of our lives and this world is spread far and wide. Yet, every day we step into and live with the promise that God is with us. We are bearers of the very promise of God. We when step forward wading knee deep into the murky waters of life, God is with us. The ark of the covenant. The ark of Mary's womb. The ark of the manger. The ark of our lives. The ark of this world. God is with us. And you and I are called to ponder and proclaim the very wonders of God, the wonders God does among us.
On communion Sundays, the elders who assist in serving the elements meet in the pastor's office before worship. After all the practical stuff about who is going wear is planned, we stop and pray. On many more than one Sunday, I pray that as we serve these elements to the gathered congregation, may we be mindful of being the hands and face of Christ to those who feast on his presence, that together, all of us might then be the body of Christ in and to the world.
Ark bearing. Proclaiming and witnessing and bearing the promise of God with us.

From Russia with Love (Great Games from the Eastern Bloc)33
1C publishes most Eastern Block games these days. I love games that come out of Eastern Europe and Russia. If "Eastern Bloc" was a proper genre I would probably declare it as my favorite. So why the fasicination? I guess I just really like the cerebr...
Animals That Would Scare The Shit Out Of Me If They Were Angry4
---Top of the list: LESS scary - - - - ----Bottom of the list: MORE scary Special Thanks to Metal Gear Sunny for insisting I create a list. I then went on to create this incredibly classy list. :PAlso... bananas. That is all.
Characters I Would Recruit For My World-Class Fighting Force34
If I needed to start a world-class force of fighters--you know, men and women who needed to be on-call at all times, ready to fight terror wherever it may rear its nefarious head--these would be the guys at the top of my list.
Good Licensed Games42
I should note that I mean licensed in the traditional sense of taking characters or stories from other mediums and bringing them to games. I don't mean sports games like Madden or Tony Hawk, even though both are technically licensed products.
Pile of Shame32
One of the (relative) downsides of covering games for a living is only having a finite amount of time to play games, and often having to play a bunch of games you'd rather not mess with. A consequence of this responsibility is lacking the time to pla...
Games I Bought Because of the Demo2
Good thing demos exist, otherwise I would have missed out.
The Best In Classic Sports8
A list in progress
Favorite Game Soundtracks6
Music can add so much to the enjoyment of a game. Here's a few that I think nailed it.
Best Game Soundtracks to Have Sex to21
Light some candles and draw a bubble bath. List updated as I think of them. (Disclaimer: This list is for Entertainment purposes only lol)
Favorite Game per System21
For each system I own, if I had to pick just one game as the best and/or favorite, this would be it.
Shamefully Shameful Pile of Shame31
Out of over 700 games that I own, these are top 50 or so (in no particular order) that I regret never finishing or, in some cases, never even started. In my defense, I buy alot of games simply for collecting purposes. But some of these are too sham...
Bad Games That I Can't Help But Like... Or At Least Remember Somewhat Fondly20
Or, if you want to be all technical about it, "guilty pleasures." And yeah, "bad" is probably a strong term. Some of these games are merely middling. But at some point I don't want a huge title for the list.
Great Pinball Machines10
This is mostly here to motivate me to add more pinball machines to the database.

Fashion vocabulary inspired by the upcoming Isabel Marant pour H&M collaboration
If you want to be offended by cultural appropriation, there is plenty of fodder. Walmart sells moccasins. Victoria's Secret sells kimonos. Go to any major Canadian mall, and you can probably find a number of stores selling Chinese-inspired cap-sleeve silk blouses.

It's me, Derek McCormack. I was wondering: Is Martin Margiela a real man? Is there a chance he'd answer some questions?
Would I recommend Margiela with H&M? Yes. But would I recommend lining up outside of an H&M store on Nov. 15?
