Jason Maxiell wants Horace Grant goggles
Oct 4, 2013, 2:19 PM EDT
Jason Maxiell is a hard-banging power forward – just like Horace Grant..
Maxiell signed with the Magic – just like Grant.
Maxiell is wearing No. 54 – just like Grant.
They're basically twins, except Grant's trademark goggles. But they could share eyewear choice soon.
Evan Dunlap of Orlando Pinstripe Post:
Maxiell underwent surgery on Easter to correct a detached retina, and he will "most likely" wear protective goggles for his own safety throughout the season. "I don't have to, but I would rather [wear them]." He's still not sure when or how the original injury occurred.
Currently, Maxiell is wearing a sleeker and more stylish pair of goggles similar to the ones Bo Outlaw wore when he was with the Magic. Maxiell says the Grant goggles are "a little more durable, [and] a little more my style."
The cynic in me says Maxiell, who admits he doesn't need goggles, wants them just to raise his profile through Grant comparisons (though it could be precautionary due to a fear of being hit in the eye again). After all, how often has Maxiell received national attention aside from this news?
But I don't care. This would be awesome.
Goggles are distinctive, and the NBA can always use more fun, unique things. I really hope Maxiell dons them.
The goggles don't make the man, but they make the man a little cooler.

I love this! Im a Horace Grant fan and this would be like reincarnation. Don't get me wrong , I'm not delusional or anything so Jason would still have his own individuality but it would still be like a blast from the past to see a likeness ( player & person) of one if the most underrated power forwards of all time. I am now a Jason Maxiell fan.

"The goggles don't make the man, but they make the man a little cooler."
Perfect way to wrap that article up.

Maxiell is a true pro always gives full effort, I've been a fan of his since back in his days as a Bearcat

One does not simply walk into Horace Grant goggles.
- albertmn - Oct 5, 2013 at 7:40 PM
While the goggles would be kind of cool, I fear that if he doesn't need them, he would just be another hipster wearing glasses to have a look instead of using them because they are needed. As someone who was forced to wear glasses for decades (before Lasik), it kind of annoys me that hipsters think glasses are a fashion statement.

For the first time in longer than any current TCA member can recall, hundreds of television critics from across the United States and Canada assembled to learn all they could about the new series set to debut during the upcoming television season without seeing pilots for most of those shows.Read More
The broadcast network portion of the Summer 2008 Television Critics Association tour has run surprisingly smooth these last eight days, given that three of the five networks - ABC, The CW and NBC -- had no pilots to show the press prior to sessions with the producers and casts of their new shows.

Mets not healthy just yet: Jose Reyes gets scratched
Jul 15, 2010, 6:30 PM EDT
Jose Reyes was due to hit leadoff Thursday in Carlos Beltran's return from knee surgery, but he was scratched prior to the game against the Giants and Tim LIncecum because he still doesn't feel comfortable hitting left-handed as he deals with a strained oblique.
Reyes, who originally missed six days with the injury, tried hitting right-handed against righties last week with poor results, going 1-for-10 in three games. He is fine to hit right-handed and play defense, so he will be available off the bench tonight.
The Mets face lefties on both Friday and Sunday, so Reyes figures to start at least two games this weekend. Replacing him tonight at shortstop is Ruben Tejada. The Mets have also shifted Angel Pagan up to the leadoff spot and moved Alex Cora from eighth to second in the lineup.
It will change soon, but with Reyes getting scratched, the Mets' star shortstop and center fielder still haven't been in the lineup together since May 20, 2009.

Queen's Speech: No 10 aide in row over tobacco links
Related Articles
Published: 08 May 2013
A row erupted today over links between top No 10 aide Lynton Crosby and the alcohol and tobacco industries.
It came as the Government was criticised by cancer charities for failing to announce new laws in the Queen's Speech to curb smoking.
Plans for plain cigarette packaging and a minimum price for a unit of alcohol were both expected. But Labour questioned whether Mr Crosby's previous work lobbying for alcohol and tobacco companies in Australia meant he was now responsible for blocking the measures here. His firm Crosby Textor worked for British American Tobacco, which has branded plain packaging "ill thought through".
After the Queen's Speech Eileen Streets, a director at the Roy Castle Lung Cancer Foundation, said: "It appears the Government has lost its bottle."
British Lung Foundation chief executive Dr Penny Woods said: "The Government has taken a real step back in ensuring it protects our young people's health." Crosby Textor also worked for the Distilled Spirits Industry Council of Australia, representing firms such as Diageo which oppose minimum alcohol pricing.
In Downing Street Mr Crosby has been credited with streamlining the Government's programme to focus on issues with the greatest voter appeal.
Shadow health secretary Andy Burnham said: "Two key public health policies have been dropped since Lynton Crosby arrived in Downing Street. David Cameron needs to come clean about whether Crosby had any involvement." Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt dismissed any idea the measures had been shelved, suggesting a decision was yet to be taken.
He said on BBC radio: "I want to make sure we do the job properly so I'm going to take the time that I need to."
A No 10 spokesman said consultations had been undertaken on both minimum pricing and plain packaging and ministers were considering results before making a decision.

Classic French cuisine - very well executed. Great friendly, helpful staff. Very enjoyable lunch. The ambience of the place was absolutely charming.
I read some trip advisor reviews of this restaurant after I had booked and was nearly going to call and cancel the booking.I am so pleased I didn't.I realise we all have different expectations, but I could not fault the place.I have travelled the entire world many times over many years and had a lot of wondeful dining experiences, and I have to add The Rooster to my top list.Firstly the building. It is old, quaint and very well presented. The restaurant covers several rooms of the old house. Beautiful ceilings, lovely fittings, a large warm fire blazing. Tables with crisp white linen, large comfy dining chairs.It was a quiet night, only three or four tables. The waiter was certainly amongst the most professional I have ever come across. He knew the menu backwards, had a perfect, unobtrusive approach, yet was friendly and helpful. He reminded me of the best of european waiters. The wine list was very varied and comprehensive and the waiter assisted us to find the perfect accompaniment to our meal.The menu was very good, not huge, but adequate. Prices are reasonable around the $80 mark per person for three courses, excluding wine. Our meal was worth every cent.Escargot were excellent, as were the sheeps kidneys for entree. Just wonderful. The duck and the ox cheek for mains were large meals that we could not find any fault with.Desserts and cheese platter were wonderful.The whole evening was very special, and I hope that everyone who reads this and goes to The Rooster has a similar experience, because I can honestly say, this is amongst the top dining experiences in my life.
Wonderful meal, with great service. Great view, and lovely and warm on a cold night. Service was good.
A friend and I spent a delightful evening at the famous Rooster Restaurant at the end of April. The restaurant is cosy and welcoming and has distinct old-world charm. It almost felt like diving into a different world, a bygone era, or going overseas without hopping on a plane. One of the highlights of the night - besides the food of course - was definitely the service. Our waiter Barry is clearly a professional and relates to his guests in a lovely, unobtrusive and caring manner. The food is exquisite. Those who are looking for an authentic French dining experience are in the right place. I had the Cheese Soufflé for starter, the Cassoulet as a main and Crème Brûlée to finish off. I do recommend choosing at least one light main, though - a lesson for next time.
We had dinner at the Rooster on a Saturday night and had a few issues. Firstly they twice they didn't have the wine that was on the wine list. One of the main courses had to be returned was the meat was too tough, they did replace the main course with another dish. To finish the meal they didn't return to the table to take our dessert and dessert wine order.

5 Memorable Fashion Moments From Holiday Classics
Not my favorite moment from A Christmas Story, but gets honorable mention.
The holiday season is in full swing and now comes the avalanche of new and old holiday movies. Everyone has a favorite with memorable moments that tug at our heartstrings or make us laugh out loud. My favorite moments tend to center around the clothes, go figure.
Here is my list of 5 of my favorite fashion moments in holiday movies.
A Christmas Story In my opinion, one of the best holiday movies of all time and a must watch every year in the Luter household. Even though Ralphie is the star, little brother Randy steals the show more than a few times.
Fashion moment: Randy's all in one snow suit dilemma.
Honorable mention: Ralphie's bunny pjs from Aunt Clara
The Sound of Music I'm not sure when The Sound of Music became considered a holiday film, but I'm all for it. Maybe because it's set in the the Alps with all the snow?
Fashion moment: Maria makes the children clothes out of the drapes a la Scarlett O'Hara.
20th Century Fox
20th Century Fox
Batman Returns If you want creepy Christmas done right, call Tim Burton.
Fashion moment: Michelle Pfeiffer's transformation into Catwoman. The scene comes complete with a few DIY tricks.
Love Actually The movie that launched a thousand American rehashes including New Year's Eve, Valentine's Day and probably Groundhogs Day if they can get it financed.
Fashion moment: Anything Billy Mack wears the entire film.
Universal Pictures
Honorable mention Juliet's angelic wedding dress and feather fascinator
It's a Wonderful Life Everyone thinks about the moral lessons and holiday sentiment of It's a Wonderful Life, but I think about the fashionista that is Violet Bick. Take another look at the movie and marvel at her wardrobe choices. Epic!
Fashion moment: Violet Bick and the "this old thing" trick
One more...I can't help it.
Edward Scissorhands Another Tim Burton classic with Winona Rider is the perfect teen dream, but Johnny Depp has the original Edward Cullen hair.

Is Jerry Reese to Blame for New York Giants' Offensive Line Issues?
Labeling blame in football is hard. Sometimes bad play is players not playing to their talent, sometimes they are coached poorly or have a bad scheme, and sometimes they were simply overvalued by the GM. Furthermore, injuries are hard to evaluate as well. Injuries are random to a certain extent, but the more a player ages the more injuries become an expectation and not an anomaly.
For the New York Giants, the blame has been put all around. Eli Manning, Kevin Gilbride, Perry Fewell, David Wilson, and Justin Tuck have all been attacked by many as the cause, and not without reason. All of them have had disappointing seasons or led units that have failed to produce. By far the biggest failure for the Giants has been the offensive line, though. The line has let Manning be constantly pressured, giving up 14 sacks already. The line has also not opened up many, if any, holes leading to a weak running attack. The leader of the group, Chris Snee, and the offensive coordinator, Gilbride have both taken flak for the terrible start. But the true fault may reside elsewhere.
Jerry Reese waited a long time to start rebuilding this line. The Giants have had a strong offensive line for years now, in fact two of the members on the Giants offensive line played in the 2007 Super Bowl. But that is exactly the issue. This offensive line has been getting older and older with only small trickling replacements. Reese drafted Will Beatty and Justin Pugh highly in the draft, but no other offensive linemen were drafted in the early rounds. That means that if either does not pan out, big problems can occur. Even if they do pan out, the offensive line is getting hurt left and right, with David Diehl going out at right tackle and the left guard Snee now about to have season-ending surgery. Reese shouldn't be surprised at this as both players have been playing for a long time (both were starters in 2007). These injuries have thrown unproven players into the mix, and the results have been ugly.
Reese is a good drafter and both Pugh and Beatty have shown signs of great play, but both are still young and making bad mistakes too. By waiting so long, Reese adjusted a year late and the Giants are paying the price. Reese should have drafted more offensive linemen.
It is easy to tell a GM who he should have picked, but it's hard to say who he shouldn't have. So it would be unfair to blame Reese unless there were clear missteps when he drafted. The most obvious choice Reese should have made was waiting to draft a running back in the 2012 draft. Valuable running backs often come in later rounds and even the one he picked, Wilson, has not shown much value. Reese also took another defensive tackle, Jonathan Hankins in the second round this year, even though the Giants would go on to have great depth at that position. Reese loves to simply draft the best player available, and while that can be smart, sometimes teams need to think about long term needs at least somewhat. Trade in Wilson and Hankins for two good offensive linemen and the Giants might have a much better record and brighter future. Unfortunately Reese did not, and the Giants are paying the price.

We Invite You To Worship God With Us - In Spirit And Truth.
Our Meeting House
We are a local body of Christians, part of the Bride of Christ, the called out, the church for which Christ died - the church of Christ. We endeavor to worship only as according to the pattern set forth in the New Testament, also called the apostles doctrine (Acts 2:42).
Where We Are...
Our Goal Is To Study God's Word And Share It With Our Community.
Our marquee is designed to let the community know what we are studying, to provoke thought and to share the message of the Gospel of Jesus Christ (for it is truly the power of God unto salvation (cf. Rom. 1:16-17)!
The Setting
Our goal is to engender an atmosphere of warmth and welcome. As we meet to worship God, we also meet to fellowship with one another - to truly strive for a family, friendly environment. We strive to be a haven from the world - a place where one can heal, where one can grow spiritually and where we can all help one another be faithful to our Creator.
Praising God In Song
As part of our worship to God, we lift our voices to Him in song, according to the Scriptures (cf. Col. 3:16-17).
The Importance Of Prayer
Prayer is vital to the life of human beings. God has placed eternity in our hearts (Eccl. 3:11) and because of that we understand that He exists (Rom. 1:18-21). As part of our relationship with the Father in Jesus Christ, we have been given the avenue of prayer to make our petitions know to God - both for ourselves and for one another.
The Mission Of The Lord's Church
God exists (Heb. 11:6). God desires that all men be saved (1 Tim. 2:1-7). In order for that desire to be fulfilled, He has given the responsibility to the church to carry out the commission of preaching the Gospel to all mankind. It is because of this that we do our best to share the Gospel - the Good News of Jesus Christ - with everyone we can, and in as many ways as we can.
America, we would do well to consider the wisdom and insight into our own cultural situation that this Psalm reveals:
"In the LORD I put my trust; how can you say to my soul, 'Flee as a bird to your mountain?' For look! The wicked bend their bow; they make ready their arrow on the string, that they may shoot secretly at the upright in heart. If the foundations are destroyed, what can the righteous do? The LORD is in His holy temple, The LORD'S throne is in heaven; His eyes behold, His eyelids test the sons of men. The LORD tests the righteous, but the wicked and the one who loves violence His soul hates. Upon the wicked He will rain coals; Fire and brimstone and a burning wind shall be the portion of their cup. For the LORD is righteous, He loves righteousness; His countenance beholds the upright" (Ps. 11:1-7).
This country is decimated by the moral decline within her. The enemy has risen up and has gladly taken her beauty and has turned it into iniquity and has driven her to the dust. Those who say within her "we do not need God" or "let us rid this country of the Bigots," meaning, of course, the Christian, will receive Justice from the Lord. They shall not escape. Though they bend their bows and ready themselves for war against God, His word and His people, saying, in effect: "Let us break Their bonds in pieces And cast away Their cords from us" (Ps. 2:3), "He who sits in the heavens shall laugh; The Lord shall hold them in derision" (Ps. 2:4).
"Righteousness exalts a nation, But sin is a reproach to any people" (Pr. 14:34). There is an agenda in this country that is evil. It desires to destroy our children with a doctrine of "tolerance" teaching – though they really mean acceptance of their evil desires and ways. It has overtaken our government, our schools, our families and our society. It will not be long before the death knell is getting ready to sound. "Though it tarries, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry" (Hab. 2:3). It may not be in this generation; it may be the next; however, America – you are made up of those who are living now. Your life will end and you will be faced with judgment from the Almighty when your time comes.
Though the whole world gather together to battle against the Almighty, none shall prevail for all, both small and great shall find themselves at the great white throne to be judged according to their deeds. There is no escape.
This life is fleeting. "For we have been consumed by Your anger, and by Your wrath we are terrified. You have set our iniquities before You, Our secret sins in the light of Your countenance. For all our days have passed away in Your wrath; we finish our years like a sigh. The days of our lives are seventy years; And if by reason of strength they are eighty years, Yet their boast is only labor and sorrow; For it is soon cut off, and we fly away" (Ps. 90:7-10). No matter how much many wish this not to be true, it is, in fact true. "The entirety of Your word is truth, and every one of Your righteous judgments endures forever" (Ps. 119:160). "Your word is truth" (Jn. 17:17).
"If you fear the LORD and serve Him and obey His voice, and do not rebel against the commandment of the LORD, then both you and the king who reigns over you will continue following the LORD your God. However, if you do not obey the voice of the LORD, but rebel against the commandment of the LORD, then the hand of the LORD will be against you" (1 Sam. 12:14-15). "Do not be like the horse or like the mule, which have no understanding, which must be harnessed with bit and bridle, Else they will not come near you" (Ps. 32:9). "Do not harden your hearts" (Ps. 95:8), but listen to the tender call of the Lord to return to Him. O America, won't you listen?
God promises "the instant I speak concerning a nation and concerning a kingdom, to pluck up, to pull down, and to destroy it, if that nation against whom I have spoken turns from its evil, I will relent of the disaster that I thought to bring upon it. And the instant I speak concerning a nation and concerning a kingdom, to build and to plant it, if it does evil in My sight so that it does not obey My voice, then I will relent concerning the good with which I said I would benefit it" (Jer. 18:8-10).
Do we really want to test God in this matter? Look at history. Learn from it.
"For thus says the High and Lofty One Who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy: 'I dwell in the high and holy place, with him who has a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, And to revive the heart of the contrite ones. For I will not contend forever, nor will I always be angry; for the spirit would fail before Me, and the souls which I have made. For the iniquity of his covetousness I was angry and struck him; I hid and was angry, and he went on backsliding in the way of his heart. I have seen his ways, and will heal him; I will also lead him, and restore comforts to him and to his mourners. I create the fruit of the lips: Peace, peace to him who is far off and to him who is near,' Says the LORD, 'And I will heal him.' But the wicked are like the troubled sea, when it cannot rest, whose waters cast up mire and dirt. 'There is no peace,' Says my God, 'for the wicked.'" (Isa. 57:15-21).
America, are you going to continue to deny God His rightful place as Exalted One among our people? Are you going to continue to exchange "the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man--and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things" (Rom. 1:23), as well as exchange "the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator" (Rom. 1:25)? Will you continue to store up for yourself wrath, or will you humble yourself and return to the Almighty, crying to God as Daniel did "we have sinned and committed iniquity, we have done wickedly and rebelled, even by departing from Your precepts and Your judgments" (Dan. 9:5)?
It's not too late, for God is longsuffering. "The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance" (2 Pet. 3:9), and He exhorts us to "consider that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation" (2 Pet. 3:15). He is waiting for us to return: "As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten. Therefore be zealous and repent" (Rev. 3:19). The Lord loves you. "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son" (Jn. 3:16) and He desires you to return to Him, America!
"Today, if you will hear His voice, Do not harden your hearts" (Heb. 3:15). Respond to His Gracious Invitation to Return to Him. Let us also get back to His Word, humbly seeking His instruction for the direction and salvation of our great nation!
Brethren, let us not be forgetful, but remember to "consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession, Christ Jesus" (Heb. 3:1) who said "Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me. In My Father's house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also" (Jn. 14:1-3). Jesus will one day come back to claim His own. In the meantime, we have to resist the things of this world, not being of the world, though we are in it.
We would do well to remember that this world is not our home, for we are merely pilgrims and sojourners passing through this world. Let us heed Peter's exhortation to, "as sojourners and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts which war against the soul" (1 Pet. 2:11) but let us, instead, "gird up the loins of" (our) "mind, be sober, and rest your hope fully upon the grace that is to be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ; as obedient children, not conforming yourselves to the former lusts, as in your ignorance; but as He who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct, because it is written, 'Be holy, for I am holy.'" (1 Pet. 1:13-16).
Paul gives us a similar exhortation when he says "If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God. Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth. For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. When Christ who is our life appears, then you also will appear with Him in glory" (Col. 3:1-4).
John goes so far as to give a warning when he says "Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world--the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life--is not of the Father but is of the world. And the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever" (1 Jn. 2:15-17).
What's the point of today's exhortation? The world is getting long in the tooth. Though the Lord tarry, He will not tarry forever; and when He returns it will be a finalization of life and time – where there is no second chance. There is no turning around, changing, begging or pleading for more time or chances. It is the last act of the ages. Therefore, let us live as though it will be today – and sow the seed of the kingdom in the lives of any who will listen.
Let us show that the world has nothing real or lasting to offer. It, in its entirety "lies under the sway of the wicked one" (1 Jn. 5:19). Let us realize and share with those who listen that there is a tug of war for the minds of mankind, between good and evil – between the Spirit of God and the spirit of the wicked one happening at this very moment. The Spirit of God calls through His Gospel which he sent forth for the purpose of the salvation of mankind. The spirit of the wicked one calls through the "lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life."
Paul tells us this battle is "against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places" (Eph. 6:12); and is being waged by one who wiles are crafty (cf. 2 Cor. 11:3; Eph. 4:14). In order for us to stand against the wiles of the Devil, let us put on the whole armor of God (Eph. 6:10-18) and diligently wait for and hasten the return of our Great King, Savior and Lord Jesus Christ, and, while time exists "on some have compassion, making a distinction; but others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire, hating even the garment defiled by the flesh" (Jude 1:22-23).
"For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men, teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly in the present age, looking for the blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ" (Tit. 2:11-13).
A few scriptures of exhortation:
"I thank my God always concerning you for the grace of God which was given to you by Christ Jesus, that you were enriched in everything by Him in all utterance and all knowledge, even as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you, so that you come short in no gift, eagerly waiting for the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ, who will also confirm you to the end, that you may be blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ" (1 Cor. 1:4-8).
Brethren, "what manner of persons ought you to be in holy conduct and godliness, looking for and hastening the coming of the day of God?" (2 Pet. 3:11-12).
"He who testifies to these things says, "Surely I am coming quickly." Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus!" (Rev. 22:20). "To those who eagerly wait for Him He will appear a second time, apart from sin, for salvation" (Heb. 9:28).
He will return. It will be a day from which there will be no return. Let us be diligent to be found by Him without spot and blameless, for "the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord" (1 Thess. 4:16-17).
Are you ready? Are we helping others become ready? Let us always remember our responsibility toward our fellow man: Ezekiel 33:2-11 (the type, or shadow); Matthew 28:18-20; Mark 16:15-16 (the antitype, or substance).
"For the day of the LORD is great and very terrible; who can endure it?" (Joel 2:11).
Brethren, God is ready to "judge the living and the dead (1 Pet. 4:5). We are to be "found by Him in peace, without spot and blameless" (2 Pet. 3:14). The only way this can happen is if we dwell, exist, abide and constantly imbibe in the pure Word of God. This, brothers and sisters is why I stress the importance of reading and applying the Word of God to our lives. It is what sustains all creation (cf. Heb. 1:3) – including the lives of all mankind. Because it contains the answer to all the ills of society (Ps. 19; 2 Tim. 3:15). Because it is that which will judge mankind in the end (Jn. 12:48).
We need to read the word and keep it; but we also need to preach it. Paul says to us through his instruction to Timothy "I charge you therefore before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, who will judge the living and the dead at His appearing and His kingdom: Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching" (2 Tim. 4:1-2). We need to let the world know that God exists and that He will "repay with tribulation those who trouble you, and to give you who are troubled rest with us when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven with His mighty angels, in flaming fire taking vengeance on those who do not know God, and on those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ" (2 Thess. 1:6-8).
This is a serious matter. There are many who attempt to deny God in our world today. They do it for a myriad of reasons. The one who says "there is no God," in an attempt to hide from the will and the hand of the Almighty is in grave danger of His Judgment. The Psalmist put it best when he classified those who do such: "The fool has said in his heart, 'There is no God.' They are corrupt, They have done abominable works" (Ps. 14:1).
He is a fool who rejects God and His counsel. It is he who "changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man--and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things" (Rom. 1:23) and "exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever" (Rom. 1:25).
There is a lot of that kind of thing going on right now. In regards to this Paul reveals to us that God gives amble evidence of Himself and will not keep from holding man accountable. He reveals to us that "the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them" (Rom. 1:18-19). Mankind has no excuse. He has given ample evidence both in creation and revelation of Himself. The latter includes the expression of His will. The former is an expression of His existence that is so strong that it should compel man to seek His divine revelation.
"The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament shows His handiwork. Day unto day utters speech, And night unto night reveals knowledge. There is no speech nor language Where their voice is not heard. Their line has gone out through all the earth, And their words to the end of the world. In them He has set a tabernacle for the sun, which is like a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, And rejoices like a strong man to run its race. Its rising is from one end of heaven, And its circuit to the other end; And there is nothing hidden from its heat" (Ps. 19:1-6).
There are heralds of righteousness across this globe preaching the Word of God in an effort to "save some" (cf. Rom. 11:14; 1 Cor. 9:22; Jude 1:20-25). They are working to share Gospel which is "the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes" (Rom. 1:16), and is "able to make you wise for salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus" (2 Tim. 3:15). They are working to show that the creation cries out to mankind of the existence of God. They are working to show that God has graciously revealed to mankind His word for the purpose of their salvation.
We look, again, to the Psalmist regarding the importance of God's Word being preached, heard and kept by the preacher and those who hear him alike: "The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul; The testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple; the statutes of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes; the fear of the LORD is clean, enduring forever; the judgments of the LORD are true and righteous altogether. More to be desired are they than gold, Yea, than much fine gold; Sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb. Moreover by them Your servant is warned, And in keeping them there is great reward" (Ps. 19:7-11).
May we pray to God as the Psalmist did when he cried out to God "Who can understand his errors? Cleanse me from secret faults. Keep back Your servant also from presumptuous sins; Let them not have dominion over me. Then I shall be blameless, And I shall be innocent of great transgression. Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart Be acceptable in Your sight, O LORD, my strength and my Redeemer" (Ps. 19:12-14).
It is the Word of God that saves:"Therefore lay aside all filthiness and overflow of wickedness, and receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls" (Jas. 1:21). Too much time is spent talking about things that have no eternal value. My life's illustrations, funny stories, clever anecdotes, emotional rhetoric, etc will not save mankind. God's Word, also called the Gospel, will.
Jesus says "If you abide in My word, you are My disciples indeed. And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." James says "but be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves" (Jas.1:22).
"Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written in it; for the time is near" (Rev. 1:3).
O Lord of heaven and earth, save! Forgive this man who is a worm, who needs your grace and mercy lest you destroy; "O LORD, do not rebuke me in Your anger, Nor chasten me in Your hot displeasure;" Forgive this nation who has gone astray. Forgive Your church for its failures, for you give hope when you say "if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land" (1 Chr. 7:14). Forgive Your children for their erring ways. Take away the shame of our iniquity. You are gracious even though we have sinned. "Blessed is the man to whom the LORD does not impute iniquity, And in whose spirit there is no deceit" (Ps. 32:2). O Lord, forgive!
Your eye looks upon man and sees all of his thoughts and all of his doings. You are angry with the wicked every day. You have brought low a nation who at one time served You. Have mercy on your church who serves You among this heathen nation and do not destroy the righteous with the wicked.
"O Lord, great and awesome God, who keeps His covenant and mercy with those who love Him, and with those who keep His commandments, we have sinned and committed iniquity, we have done wickedly and rebelled, even by departing from Your precepts and Your judgments. Neither have we heeded Your servants the prophets, who spoke in Your name to our kings and our princes, to our fathers and all the people of the land. O Lord, righteousness belongs to You, but to us shame of face, as it is this day…O Lord, to us belongs shame of face, to our kings, our princes, and our fathers, because we have sinned against You" (Dan. 9:4-7).
Man would perish if you would not remember that his days are but a vapor and his strength as a shadow, as the Psalmist writes "for He remembered that they were but flesh, A breath that passes away and does not come again" (Ps. 78:39). "Surely men of low degree are a vapor, Men of high degree are a lie; If they are weighed on the scales, They are altogether lighter than vapor" (Ps. 62:9). How gracious You are that you are "longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance" (2 Pet. 3:9).
"Blessed be the name of God forever and ever, For wisdom and might are His. And He changes the times and the seasons; He removes kings and raises up kings; He gives wisdom to the wise And knowledge to those who have understanding. He reveals deep and secret things; He knows what is in the darkness, And light dwells with Him" (Dan. 2:20-22).
" To the Lord our God belong mercy and forgiveness, though we have rebelled against Him" (Dan. 9:8).
Lord you will deliver! You will remember your grace and mercy that you have ordained for those who seek Your face. O that we would be a people who would once again seek you, for you have created us to do just that (cf. Acts 17:26-27).
Our God will not hold His wrath forever, though He is a gracious God – His justice will be levied; His judgment will prevail; His wrath will be executed; Return, you sons of man, return! "But the LORD is the true God; He is the living God and the everlasting King. At His wrath the earth will tremble, And the nations will not be able to endure His indignation" (Jer. 10:10).
"Today, if you will hear His voice, Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion" (Heb. 3:15).
"Awake to righteousness, and do not sin; for some do not have the knowledge of God. I speak this to your shame" (1 Cor. 15:34).
"Therefore He says: "Awake, you who sleep, Arise from the dead, And Christ will give you light. See then that you walk circumspectly, not as fools but as wise, redeeming the time, because the days are evil. Therefore do not be unwise, but understand what the will of the Lord is" (Eph. 5:14-17).
Awake. Before it's too late…
"Then I saw a great white throne and Him who sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away. And there was found no place for them. And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God, and books were opened. And another book was opened, which is the Book of Life. And the dead were judged according to their works, by the things which were written in the books. The sea gave up the dead who were in it, and Death and Hades delivered up the dead who were in them. And they were judged, each one according to his works. Then Death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. And anyone not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire" (Rev. 20:11-15).
I love you; more importantly, the Lord loves you. He gives time for man to change, to submit to His gracious will. He is patient; he is merciful but his longsuffering will not endure forever: "For the vision is yet for an appointed time; But at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, It will not tarry" (Hab. 2:3).
Make the changes needed today, okay? The Salvation of God
"See, you have been made well. Sin no more, lest a worse thing come upon you." (Jn. 5:14). "Neither do I condemn you; go and sin no more" (Jn. 8:11). "Awake to righteousness, and do not sin" (1 Cor. 15:34).
This is the goal - that for which I strive. Will I make it? Yes, but not on this side of eternity, and not without remaining on the "narrow path" (cf. Mt. 7:13), not turning to the left or to the right to serve the god of self or of others.
"Do not turn to the right or the left; Remove your foot from evil" (Prov. 4:27).
If I lower my standard with the understanding that "God's knows my heart" or that "God will forgive me, nobody is perfect" then I shall be in danger of falling away altogether.
"For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so also by one Man's obedience many will be made righteous. Moreover the law entered that the offense might abound. But where sin abounded, grace abounded much more, so that as sin reigned in death, even so grace might reign through righteousness to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin that grace may abound? Certainly not! How shall we who died to sin live any longer in it?" (Rom. 5:19-6:2).
"For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and fiery indignation which will devour the adversaries. Anyone who has rejected Moses' law dies without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses. Of how much worse punishment, do you suppose, will he be thought worthy who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, counted the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified a common thing, and insulted the Spirit of grace?" (Heb. 10:26-29).
"Keep back Your servant also from presumptuous sins; Let them not have dominion over me. Then I shall be blameless, And I shall be innocent of great transgression" (Ps. 19:13).
I figured I would remind my brethren who are in Christ as I remind myself of this high and noble calling, this high and narrow road we are traveling as pilgrims through this pilgrim land...oh, yeah...let's not forget what Peter said: "Beloved, I beg you as sojourners and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts which war against the soul" (1 Pet. 2:11).
Do not sin. That is the goal. That is where our focus should be. Let's take a peek at a letter that John wrote to those who he considered his children in the faith:"My little children, these things I write to you, so that you may not sin. And if anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous" (1 Jn. 2:1).
Let the soldiers of Christ arise, taking up the whole armor of God to withstand in the evil day (cf. Eph. 6:10ff) - being diligent to be found by Him in peace without spot and blameless (2 Pet. 3:14).

White Sox Add Adam Eaton to Long-Term Plan
When the White Sox signed Adam Eaton to a five-year, $23.5 extension over the weekend, the move in and of itself, wasn't huge news. It wasn't huge money, and Eaton isn't a huge player, literally or figuratively. But the move wasn't just about Eaton, necessarily, rather it was part of a bigger plan. Take it […]
Checking in on Adam Eaton
There was a lot of head scratching going on before the season started when the Arizona Diamondbacks traded two promising young players in Adam Eaton (25-years-old) and Tyler Skaggs (22-years-old) for basically a lumbering power hitter and two minor league players that do not appear to be going anywhere. Sure, there is a power shortage in the Majors and Trumbo can hit homers,...

Chicago White Sox looking to make a trade
The Chicago White Sox were very active during the offseason. There are some that feel that they aren't done yet. Two outfield spots are already filled after they acquired Adam Eaton from the D-backs and Avisail Garcia from the Tigers in the last eight months. That leaves Alejandro De Aza and Dayan Viciedo for left field. The White Sox have been shopping both players to have one...

Chicago White Sox: Who is Adam Eaton?
In December 2013, the Chicago White Sox acquired outfielder Adam Eaton from the Arizona Diamondbacks in exchange for Hector Santiago. I realize that during the winter months, baseball is not covered much so it's very possible that White Sox fans might not be familiar with the trade and Eaton. So who is Adam Eaton? Eaton is a 25-year-old left-handed hitter who has played in just...

Adam Eaton Responds to 'Selfish' Rumors, Says 'I Need to Be a Little Bit Cockier'
There's a fine line between being confident and being cocky. Adam Eaton might cross that line from time to time. An anonymous Diamondbacks player told Arizona Sports 620 shortly after Eaton was traded to the White Sox on Dec. 10 that losing the outfielder was "addition by subtraction" and that the 25-year-old was a "selfish me-me type player." The news stunned Eaton. �...
Recently traded Adam Eaton anonymously bashed as 'selfish'
Just 12 months ago, Adam Eaton was a top five prospect in the Diamondbacks organization, and he looked like he would be a long-term solution for the club in center field. After an injury-plagued 2013, Eaton was traded to the White Sox as part of a three-team trade that netted the Diamondbacks Mark Trumbo. In what is seemingly becoming a tradition with the Diamondbacks, Eaton was...

Uber App Update: Signing up is now a snap-shot!
One of our goals at Uber is to get you to where you want to go as quickly as possible. Of course, before you can request a ride, you need to sign up. But signing up for anything is hard… who wants to stand around and fill out forms? Not us!
We've worked hard to make signing up and entering information as simple as possible so that you can be on your way. And now, we've introduced a new feature that allows you to simply scan your credit card to add it to your Uber account.
If you're a frequent online shopper, you might have your credit card numbers, CVVs and expiration dates memorized… (who, me?). However, for most of us, our cards are meaningless strings of numbers. With our latest iPhone app update, all you need to do is hold up your card in front of your phone. Here's how it works:
Android users – we'll soon be integrating this feature into our Android app so you can also feel the magic. ;)
We've got lots of exciting new things coming along, so keep an eye out here for more product updates!

Introducing Xchange Leasing: Lease Options Built for Uber Driver-Partners
We have developed a new pilot program – Xchange Leasing – which is a leasing option administered by an Uber subsidiary and designed to fit with the flexibility that drivers value most. The Xchange lease is one of a kind, and offers value that traditional auto leases do not provide. Unlike most multi-year leases that have high fees for early termination, drivers who participate in Xchange for at least 30 days will be able to return the car with only two weeks notice, and limited additional costs. The program allows for unlimited mileage and the option to lease a used car, with routine maintenance also included.
Making Our Roads Safer—For Everyone
A new report conducted in partnership with Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) reveals that when empowered with more transportation options like Uber, people are making better choices that save lives.
In the Driver's Seat: A Closer Look at the Uber Partner Experience
New technologies are creating opportunities no one could have imagined. To understand Uber's place in that trend, we commissioned a survey of our driver-partners and put together a comprehensive analysis.

Nicole - our guest service representative was so helpful when checking in. I never had an experience like that before. She informed us of all the events taking place around town that we were not aware of which made our evening more fun and interesting. In the morning upon us stepping off the elevator she immediately greeted us with a "good morning" "can I help you with planning any activities today?" Unbelievable how nice she was

SketchyPosted Jul 20, 2015
I decided to keep shoes on full time while in my room. The bathroom had tiny hairs left from previous guests. I asked the front desk for an iron and ironing board, and they had a travel sized one that they would leave out at the front dest for me to pick up. For the price, I would expect better service. Didn't venture down for breakfast...too worried about the standards.

ISTANBUL - Turkish Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan described Israel on Monday as a "terrorist state" in carrying out its bombardment of Gaza, underlining hostility for Ankara's former ally since relations between them collapsed in 2010.His comments came after nearly a week of Palestinian rocket attacks on Israel and Israeli air strikes on the Gaza Strip. An Israeli missile killed at least 11 Palestinian civilians including four children in Gaza on Sunday."Those who associate Islam with terrorism close their eyes in the face of mass killing of Muslims, turn their heads from the massacre of children in Gaza," Erdogan told a conference of the Eurasian Islamic Council in Istanbul."For this reason, I say that Israel is a terrorist state, and its acts are terrorist acts," he said.Ties between Israel and Turkey, once Israel's only Muslim ally, crumbled after Israeli marines stormed an aid ship in 2010 to enforce a naval blockade of the Palestinian-run Gaza Strip. Nine Turks were killed in clashes with activists on board.Ankara expelled Israel's ambassador and froze military cooperation after a UN report into the incident released in September last year largely exonerated the Jewish state.Earlier this month Turkey opened the trial in absentia of four former Israeli military commanders over the 2010 raid.Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu is to travel to Gaza on Tuesday with a group of foreign ministers from the Arab League.
