After a multi-day viral outbreak that infected close to 700 people with a painful stomach illness, aboard the cruise ship 'Explorer of the Seas', Congressman John Garamendi (D-Fairfield, CA), who serves as the Ranking Member of the House Transportation and Infrastructue Committee's Coast Guard and Maritime Transportation Sub-committee, released the following statement:
"At times, the cruise industry seems like the Wild West on the high seas. Most trips are fine, but when things go wrong, passengers are often left confused, bewildered, and at the mercy of cruise lines for any compensation or reimbursement for the untimely and premature termination of their voyage. And that's just not right. Cruise ship passengers have a right to know in advance whether they are booking passage on the 'Love Boat' or on a voyage to despair.
"As a former Insurance Commissioner, I know that this industry requires consumer protections that are tough and fair. As Ranking Member, I will advocate for this latest incident to be examined by the Subcommittee.
"I have proposed a 'Cruise Ship Passenger Bill of Rights', including a provision that requires disclosure of any incidences of outbreaks of illness. Everyone buying a ticket for a cruise has the right to know what has happened on that ship and what the obligations of the operator are should things go wrong."
The Cruise Ship Passenger Bill of Rights, H.R. 3475, is at: http://1.usa.gov/LqC7Pd

Zagga - Chimney Records artiste Austill Henry, known more to his fans and peers by his stage name ZAGGA, The musician had his sight set at an early age to achieve greatness within the music industry and life itself.
Born and raised in Jamaica, where he is still located in the garden parish 'St Ann', Zagga works assiduously and is determined to achieve his goals.
Zagga has been doing music from the tender age of 10. While attending Ocho Rios Primary school he was known to be knocking on desk tops with his hands to make beats that would bring out his flavor in dancehall/reggae, showcasing his marvelous talent.
His peers would all listen, dance, cheer and encourage the aspiring artist to continue doing music. Upon his advancement to Ocho Rios High School he performed in most of the school's events. "I can even recall modeling for the black history month celebration, I was Mr. Ethiopia and got 1st runner up and after modeling I ripped the stage up with a smashing performance" Zagga says.
At 12 years old moving on to 13 Zagga was introduced to hip hop/rap music by his friends "Blaze and Bolo". His first hip hop icons were DMX and slim shady and did he enjoy their music! He then started to gravitate towards hip hop, exploring it and discovering its cultures as well as the different hip hop artists and what they had to offer.
Now with all that knowledge and years of
listening, he has managed to effectively merge the style of hip hop,
dancehall/reggae and pop so that fans and veterans of the music industry
can acknowledge as well as enjoy and see the potential in it.
He released his first ever mixtape on April 1, 2011 titled "The Remix God". As the title state "The Remix God" it is filled with popular songs all remixed by Zagga, the mixtape served its purpose and gotten the attention needed as it did well on radio with a number of requests each day on popular radio stations in Jamaica such as ZIP 103 FM, HITS 92 FM and IRIE FM.
The mixtape did well not just with radio plays but with over two thousand downloads within a week of its availability along with good reviews by disc jockeys, artists and fans. Good friend of Zagga, Ruption of RD Studios has always been a listener of Zagga's music. After the unofficial release of song titled "Island Breeze" on the "Island Vibes Riddim" from Zagga's mixtape, it crossed the ears of Ruption and sparked him to pitch this song to producer Jordan McClure of Chimney Records. Not long after a meeting was called and Zagga found himself face to face with producers of Chimney Records discussing a management deal.
After such deal was finalized he has had various releases such as "Versatile in love" on the Steel Strings Riddim (September 2011), When we a meck stgeppings on the steppings riddim release by Romeich Records, his single "Change" (November 2011), "Money me want" on the Intensity Riddim (November 2011), Gimme some on the master's blend riddim released by JA productions, newly released Remember the days on chill spot riddim by chimney records, aslo worked with Dj Frass, Dj Smurf, Gesta music an Kimichi records to name a few and has been interviewed by various radio stations and appeared in newspapers.
`In the apparent future, Zagga see himself performing at many popular events, collecting Grammys, breaking records in addition to leaving monumental marks in the music industry. He quotes "The fight is only over when you win, losing is not an option!"

My brother White Buffalo always enjoys taking a walk along the Truckee river after a hard fought battle with the local casinos. The river was named after Chief Truckee of the Paiute nation, whom White Buffalo says he knew in a previous life.

I only gave 2 because a certain part of the river walk is under construction by this time, but it's gonna look better after that.
It's a nice walk along side the Truckee River with a lot of restaurants along the walk. It's sad that there was quite a bit of litter and homeless people.
We went to Reno for a few days last weekend. I was in utter shock of how the recession has destroyed Reno, including the Riverwalk. It used to have lots of fun shops and we enjoyed the wine walk. They have a nice movie theater and a few restaurants. Other than that there are lots of homeless and empty storefronts....
We took a walk along the river. However the river is extremely low. They had a live band in the park. There was construction so parts of it were blocked off. There are restaurants, shops, homeless people and beggars although they are harmless. It is a nice walk but would be better without construction
We were pleased to visit this urban renewal project in downtown Reno. The city is doing a very credible job encouraging growth along this area and through midtown. It seems to be creating a renaissance for reno. Lots of eclectic restaurants and bars are popping up.

The Truckee River flowing through Reno was beautiful. A must for everyone. Lots of restaurants for food and drink. Just gorgeous!!
When vacationing I do not like for panhandlers to harass me and my teenage son as we explore the downtown area of a city. The park had nightly concerts (the only positive), but I did not feel "safe" walking in this area past twilight.
Lots of construction going on. River is quite low to enjoy any of the amenities offered along the river walk (kayaking, tubing, etc)
Has a bit of nature and the city mixed into one. I liked seeing the river, not real big of course but very cool to see even downtown. The trees, plants and rocks are make a great setting. Bring your camera. Of course there are a few so called undesirables every once in awhile, but they mind their own business...

I have a 2005 Chevy Malibu maxx LS and the service soon light came on what do think my problem is
2 Answers
Is that the service engine soon or service vehicle soon light? Red or yellow? If it's the service vehicle soon light, check the headlight bulbs and gas tank cap. If it's the service engine soon light, get the codes read at the parts store.
The best thing to do is to go to autozone and have them get check engine code for free and they will also give you a paper with the possible problem and then you will know what to replace

In a beautiful excerpt from a sermon of St. Augustine on John the Baptizer, the great Bishop of Hippo calls us to pause and reflect on the reason we celebrate his first birth - 'The Church observes the birth of John as in some way sacred; and you will not find any other of the great men of old whose birth we celebrate officially. We celebrate John's, as we celebrate Christ's. This point cannot be passed over in silence, and if I may not perhaps be able to explain it in the way that such an important matter deserves, it is still worth thinking about it a little more deeply and fruitfully than usual.'

Keywords: John the Baptist, freedom, holiness, happiness, holiness, living faith, saints, prophecy, prophetic, penance, repentance, Deacon Keith Fournier
CHESAPEAKE, VA (Catholic Online) - John the Baptizer is a man to be imitated in both life and death. We can learn from him how to live our lives as joyful penitents; ever aware of our utter dependency on God's grace. It is sin which leads us into slavery and takes away our joy. Only by being freed from its entanglement can we become happy and flourish in both life and death.
The last prophet of the Old Testament, the forerunner of the Messiah, was killed by a corrupted King who gave in to lust, pride and grandiosity. John never stopped bearing witness to the truth. He had the eyes to see that Truth was fully revealed in Jesus, the one whom he proclaimed the "Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world." (John 1:29)
St. John the Baptizer was a simple man, not a member of the elite. He was stirred by conscience and the Holy Spirit to throw convention to the wind. He paid dearly for it. As Christians we inherit the abundant fruit of his daring and liberating choices. The way he exercised the great gift of his human freedom instructs us in exercising our own.
On June 24 in the Western Liturgical calendar we celebrate the Birth of John the Baptizer. Our Gospel at the Vigil Mass recounts the visit of an angel to his father. (Luke 1:5-17) On August 29, we commemorate his death by beheading. The Gospel passage at Mass for his martyrdom is taken from Mark's account of a corrupt King named Herod who unlawfully married his own brother's wife. Her name was Herodias. (Mk. 6:17-29)
John confronted Herod over the matter. He called him to account for his unlawful and immoral behavior. A true prophet of God, John did not fear the powerful. He cared enough about their souls that he called them to repentance when they exercised their power in a corrupt manner or when they failed to choose what is true and good.
Even after Herod had John imprisoned, the King still listened to him. The Gospel text tells us, 'Herod feared John, knowing him to be a righteous and holy man, and kept him in custody. When he heard him speak he was very much perplexed, yet he liked to listen to him.'
Herod could have met the Lord Jesus Christ, whom he had longed to see in person. However, he gave himself over to a life of immorality and disordered passion. As a result of wrong choices he lost his capacity to see the truth and choose to follow it. It is a sad story, repeated throughout history.
Herodias held a grudge against John because he had the audacity to question her behavior. She wanted him killed. Herod did not grant her request. Instead, he kept him imprisoned. Unsatisfied, Herodias hatched a plot against John. She had her own daughter seduce Herod while he was entertaining guests, through a dance.
Overcome with lust, in a drunken fit of grandiosity, Herod promised the girl she could have anything in return for that dance. As a part of a plot which her own mother had hatched, she asked for the head of John the Baptizer. After his martyrdom, his disciples took away his body and laid it in the tomb. Most of them became disciples of Jesus.
The last prophet of the Old Testament, the forerunner of the Messiah, was killed by a corrupted King who gave in to lust, pride and grandiosity. John never stopped bearing witness to the truth. He had the eyes to see that Truth was fully revealed in Jesus, the one whom he proclaimed the 'Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world.' (John 1:29) Because of this, the Christian tradition has hailed him as a martyr.
Other than the Lord Himself and His Blessed Mother, Mary, John is the only Saint for whom we celebrate both his birth and his death. Since the first century, the day of a Christian martyrs Death was considered dies natalis, the day of his or her birth to eternal life. So, in a sense, today we celebrate the second birth of John.
In a beautiful excerpt from a sermon of St. Augustine on John the Baptizer, the great Bishop of Hippo calls us to pause and reflect on the reason we celebrate his first birth:
'The Church observes the birth of John as in some way sacred; and you will not find any other of the great men of old whose birth we celebrate officially. We celebrate John's, as we celebrate Christ's. This point cannot be passed over in silence, and if I may not perhaps be able to explain it in the way that such an important matter deserves, it is still worth thinking about it a little more deeply and fruitfully than usual.'
Let's do just that. St Matthew records these words of Jesus concerning the one who prepared the way for Him: 'I say to you, among those born of women there has risen no one greater than John the Baptist; yet he who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.' (Mt. 11:11, 12)
Let us consider what the Lord meant by John's greatness. Let us further consider the joy and freedom which it brought to his life.
Our image of John is often as the austere ascetic, the odd fellow who lived in the desert eating an odd diet thundering to Israel about repentance. We forget the joy that was associated with his birth and the happiness which accompanied his prophetic life and vocation. He always pointed the way to Jesus.
So must we, in our own age and in our daily lives. When we begin to really understand this we will also comprehend the freedom John the Baptizer experienced in both life and death. He said yes to who he was born to be and said yes to who he was called to become, all the way into eternity.
In so doing, he is an example for each one of us. He prepared the way for each one of us to follow. When Our Lady went to visit her kinswoman Elizabeth - she carrying the Incarnate Word and Elizabeth carrying John - the Gospel tells us: 'When Elizabeth heard Mary's greeting, the infant leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth, filled with the Holy Spirit, cried out in a loud voice and said:"Most blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb.
'And how does this happen to me that the mother of my Lord should come to me? For at the moment the sound of your greeting reached my ears, the infant in my womb leaped for joy. Blessed are you who believed that what was spoken to you by the Lord would be fulfilled.' And Mary said: 'My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord; my spirit rejoices in God my savior.' (Luke 1: 41-47)
Living in the first home of the whole human race, his mother's womb, this last Prophet of the Old Testament and First Prophet of the New responded to the arrival of Jesus the Savior with a dance of Joy. St. John the great theologian records in his Gospel where John the Baptizer explained the reason for his joy, 'The one who has the bride is the bridegroom; the best man, who stands and listens for him, rejoices greatly at the bridegroom's voice. So this joy of mine has been made complete. He must increase; I must decrease.' (John 1:29 - 30)
John the Baptizer was a man of joy precisely because he was a man of humility! The two are connected. He was a man who understood that life wasn't all about him. He emptied himself willingly and was thus able to reveal Jesus to others. He was the 'best man' at the wedding.
His humility opened a space within him for true joy to take root and set him free! John is a sign of contradiction for this present age, which, like herod, is drunk on self worship and lost in narcissistic self absorption. He points to the path to true freedom, living a lifestyle of self emptying.'He must increase and I must decrease'. This way of living leads to becoming a new creation. (2 Cor. 5:17)
John is a man to be imitated in both life and death. We learn from him how to live our lives as joyful penitents; ever aware of our utter dependency on God's grace. It is sin which leads us into slavery and takes away our joy. Only by being freed from its entanglement can we become happy. (See, Romans 6: 6, 7 and Gal. 5:1) John still points to Jesus, in both his birth and his martyr's death. That is why we celebrate both.
Two millennia after his illustrious mission as the harbinger of Christ, we readily accept, as we should, his prophetic role in the revelation of God's plan of salvation and the advent of the Gospel. Yet, how might we have seen John if we had been his contemporaries? Would we have so readily accepted him, or might we have rejected him as a fanatic or extremist?
Let's face it: John was peculiar. He dressed like a cave man, ate insects and railed at politicians for their fornication and marital infidelity. He sequestered himself in the desert where he tirelessly initiated converts fleeing the sinful pollution of the cities. He proclaimed the end if the people failed to repent and he used vivid and mystical imagery. In the popular "media" of the day, he was portrayed as a nut and dangerous fanatic.
By standing apart, boldly calling out evil doers without regard to their prestige or rank, by challenging his own co-religionists, John made himself terribly unpopular. At the end, he publicly and relentlessly criticized the personal behavior of the most powerful politician in Judea, Herod. As a result he was arrested and executed as a traitor.
Today we tend to reject those who similarly publicly decry sin and heresy. Street preachers, prophets and clerics who confront sinful policies, bad behavior and false ideologies are decried as trouble makers, fanatics and dangerous "extremists".
St. John the Baptizer was a simple man, not a member of the elite. He was stirred by conscience and the Holy Spirit to throw convention to the wind.He paid dearly for it. As Christians we inherit the abundant fruit of his daring and liberating choices. The way he exercised the great gift of his human freedom instructs us in exercising our own.
The Lord desires our human flourishing and happiness. He wants us to be free. He invites us to choose Him over our own selfish pursuits. In that continual choosing we are freed and made new. In Jesus Christ we have been given all that we need to overcome the obstacles which impede us from that freedom.
Because of sin, our freedom was fractured. Through grace given by the splint of the wood of the Cross it can be healed. By cooperating with grace, we are capacitated to choose what is true, to choose the good. In those choices we become the men and women the Lord wants us to become, as we are re-created in Christ.
Notice the language with which we discuss eternal life and heaven. We speak of receiving the receiving the 'beatific vision' when we finally stand in His presence and enter into the fullness of communion. The word 'beatitude' actually means happiness! Living in the Lord will make us happy; not only in the life to come - but beginning in this life.
Too often we associate repentance with some kind of wrong- headed self hatred. To the contrary, for those who have been schooled in its lessons like John the Baptizer, the way of voluntary penitence and conversion becomes the path to true joy. Blessed John Paul II wrote frequently about human freedom. In one of his letters of instruction on the Christian family he wrote these insightful words: 'History is not simply a fixed progression toward what is better - but rather, an event of freedom. Specifically, it is a struggle between freedoms that are in mutual conflict: a conflict between two loves - the love of God to the point of disregarding self and the love of self to the point of disregarding God.' (John Paul II, Christian Family in the Modern World, n. 6)
This conflict between two loves, this 'event of freedom', is played out on a daily basis. The recurring questions of Eden echo in our personal histories. How will we exercise our own human freedom? At which tree will we make our choices? Will it be the tree of disobedience, where the first Adam chose against God's invitation to a communion of love, or the tree on Golgotha's hill where the second Adam, the Son of God, brought heaven to earth when He stretched out His arms to embrace all men and women, bearing the consequences of all their wrong choices and setting them free from the law of sin and death? (Romans 8:2)
John the Baptizer was free. He knew the answer to those questions. He freely gave himself away in love for Love. That response in our lives is the path to true freedom. Living that way, we can also grow in courage and be used by the Lord in ways which will surprise us.
Let me conclude with some words from the Catechism of the Catholic Church: "Freedom is the power, rooted in reason and will, to act or not to act, to do this or that, and so to perform deliberate actions on one's own responsibility. By free will one shapes one's own life. Human freedom is a force for growth and maturity in truth and goodness; it attains its perfection when directed toward God, our beatitude.
'As long as freedom has not bound itself definitively to its ultimate good which is God, there is the possibility of choosing between good and evil, and thus of growing in perfection or of failing and sinning. This freedom characterizes properly human acts. It is the basis of praise or blame, merit or reproach. The more one does what is good, the freer one becomes. There is no true freedom except in the service of what is good and just. The choice to disobey and do evil is an abuse of freedom and leads to 'the slavery of sin.' (CCC 1731 - 1733).
The choice is ours. Just as it was with John the Baptizer. He shows us the way to give away our own freedom in love - and find it made new in the One who truly sets us free. (John 8:36).

Man killed for `insulting Quran`, Zardari shocked
Islamabad: Pakistan President Asif Ali Zardari has expressed profound grief over the harrowing incident in which hundreds of angry protestors burnt a man to death after accusing him of blasphemy.
The mob wrested the mentally unstable man from police custody before burning him in the Punjab province.
Police said they detained the man after locals complained that he had desecrated the Quran.
Expressing shock over the incident, Zardari said that no one should be allowed to take the law into their own hands no matter what the crime is, The Express Tribune reports.
He also directed the concerned authorities to dispense justice according to the law in this case.
Zardari had directed the Advisor on Interior Affairs, Rehman Malik, to conduct an inquiry into the incident and to submit a report on the matter immediately.
According to the paper, Prime Minister Raja Pervez Ashraf has also taken notice of the incident and has sought a report from the concerned departments.

Let the buyout debates begin
Dec 28, 2012, 3:06 PM EDT
Unless the NHL ends up pulling its latest CBA offer from the table, it appears there will be some form of compliance buyouts to help the transition to a lower salary cap in 2013-14.
Under the league's new proposal, each team would be allowed one buyout that wouldn't count against the cap; however, the money would come out of the players' share (which the union may take issue with).
The NBA put a similar clause in its recently signed CBA. Notably, the "amnesty" provision allowed the Magic to bid adieu to Gilbert Arenas and the Knicks to rid themselves of Chauncey Billups' contract (so they could afford Tyson Chandler).
Compliance buyouts will be most welcomed by the NHL's big spenders. The league reportedly wants a $60 million salary cap next season (which again, the union may take issue with), significantly lower than the current $70.2 million.
Among the potential buyout candidates:
—- Scott Gomez (Montreal)
—- Wade Redden (NY Rangers)
—- Mike Komisarek (Toronto)
—- Keith Ballard (Vancouver)
—- Matt Stajan (Calgary)
Buying out players with long-term contracts is less likely, as those players will still need to be paid their salaries according to the buyout formula. (Unless there's some sort of exception that allows a team to assume part of the salary of a bought out player.)

Cooler, better looking people than you, in hot countries. Sorry. Blame David Gomez.
If you're in an office with a grey city outside, perhaps it's best to click away now – there are a lot of sun-dappled babes heading in your direction. I am a huge fan of David Gómez's photography — his photos capture the feeling of a sleepy, sunny hungover morning on holiday, and his subjects are friendly looking, tousle-haired and rugged. The sort of people you might see working in a laid-back coffee shop, or cycling on an old bike through a town square.
David's effortlessly cool photographs have been, unsurprisingly, picked up by the likes of American Apparel and Apartamento for ad campaigns and editorials, and you can see why. Who wouldn't want their brand to bathe in the flattering morning light of his lens?

Crysis 2
Our cavalcade of punishing but pretty DirectX 11 games continues with Crysis 2, which we patched with both the DX11 and high-res texture updates.
Notice that we left object image quality at "extreme" rather than "ultra," in order to avoid the insane over-tessellation of flat surfaces that somehow found its way into the DX11 patch. We tested 60 seconds of gameplay in the level pictured above, where we gunned down several bad guys, making our way across a skywalk to another rooftop.
Uh oh. This time, the latency spikes are on the Radeon side of the fence, while the plots for the GeForces are nearly pristine.
The FPS averages you'll get from, well, almost every other source make it look like the performance of the 7870 and the GTX 660 is a close match. Our nefarious methods tell us otherwise, because the Radeons trip over more long-latency frames.
Yep, the curves illustrate the difference. Also, again, the GTX 660 is substantially quicker than any of the legacy GeForces we tested.
Even the spiky Radeons rise to the challenge of our 50-ms threshold, though. Poof. Mind blown.

JERUSALEM, Israel -- Like most Israelis just before the start of the 1973 Yom Kippur War, Effie Eitam didn't expect an Arab attack on the holiest day of the Jewish year.
Eitam was leading a routine reconnaissance patrol on the Golan Heights. Moments later, he was facing the might of the Syrian army.
"I saw hundreds of Syrian tanks moving forward, and they were painted in a camouflage of green and yellow," the former Israel Defense Forces commander told CBN News. "And I remember, I thought to myself that they're kind of prehistoric lizards, you know, who just came out of a cave because they came out of nowhere. I didn't see them before."
For days, the surprise attacks dealt a serious -- nearly fatal -- blow to Israel. The men on the front lines bore the brunt of the battle.
"The first three days were hell, you know," Eitam continued. "We didn't have any anti-tank weapons, and we had to shoot them with American World War II-made bazookas, you know, a very primitive anti-tank rocket launcher, and we had to shoot them from distances of 50-60 meters [yards]. People just got killed. Some of them were smashed by the tanks, you know, from such a short distance."
During the first few days of the war, the Israelis paid a high price in lives lost. But they held on and contained one of the most fearsome attacks ever made against the nation.
When Israel counter-attacked, Eitam received orders for a daring mission: Go behind enemy lines and take the Syrian Division headquarters. Like many commando raids, this assault meant close quarters and face-to-face, sometimes hand-to-hand, combat.
Eitam was a highly trained soldier, but he wasn't prepared for what faced him when he went around a corner in the Syrian bunker.
"We came there and we started to 'clean'-- in other words, to kill -- the generals who were there and their guards. I was throwing hand grenades, shooting, you know, in the broad concrete corridors," he said.
"And then when I turned, behind one of the corners of the corridors, which was full of smoke and dust, I saw a silhouette -- a kind of something coming out of the dust and smoke toward me," he recalled. "I was very sure it's a Syrian soldier, and I took my rifle and I was aiming the rifle and was ready to pull the trigger, and then I saw a bird coming out of the smoke. She just flew behind my head and she stood on my right shoulder."
At first, Eitam thought the bird was actually a bat, living in the cool, dark corridors of the bunker. So in the midst of an intense firefight, he found himself trying to shoo away a bird.
"So I just whipped her out, and she turned again and stood on my left shoulder," he explained. "I didn't have time to have all kinds of arguments with a bird: 'What are you doing here, who are you?' It was in the middle of a shooting battle."
"So I completed the assault and hand grenades and everything. And when I went out of the corridor of the bunker, I saw a dove, a pigeon, standing on my left shoulder. I just tried to let her out of my shoulder. She turned and was very determined not to leave me. I put my hand just like that and she stood on my hand."
Despite Eitan's attempt to get rid of the dove, she stayed with him and his unit for the next 10 days in some of the most intense battles of the Yom Kippur War. During that time, Eitam's unit appeared to have supernatural protection.
"Since we had that angel protecting us, none of my company's soldiers was killed or wounded, and we were involved in very intensive battles," he said. "It's not that we stood in the rear or we sat there. We were involved in the middle of the most bitter battles, but she was there."
"What was unnatural and very interesting was that even in the night, when we had night operations and night battles, where usually these birds, pigeons, do not move at night -- they don't have a very good night sight -- she was with us patrolling, a little bit forward, looking (at) what's going on around (us), sitting here," he said, pointing to his shoulder.
Finally, after nearly two weeks of frontline conflict, Eitam and his unit were sent to the rear for a rest.
"And when I put my feet down in the vehicle that brought us from the front to the territory of the State of Israel, she flew away and disappeared," he said. "You know, you could have a little bit of questions whether it happened or not. But it didn't happen to me in the middle of a desert or me being alone in the middle of a jungle. It was in front of the eyes of thousands of soldiers."
Since that experience, through many commando operations, the sense of the miraculous and God's protection has never left Eitam -- the same protection promised in the 23rd Psalm.
"I trained myself to see miracles around me, around the operations that I conducted. It's as we know he said, quoting Psalm 23 in Hebrew: "Even when I am in the valley of death and evil, I'm not afraid because God is with me…."

Consumer-Driven Health Accounts & Wearables in Wellness
in Business
On this week's program, hosts Doug Field, Ron Bachman and Brent Macy are live in the studio with special guests from Flex and Healthiest Employers for conversations on consumer-driven health accounts (HSAs, HRAs and FSAs) and the role of wearable devices in workplace wellness programs.
The first guest on the show will be David Lindgren, Senior Manager, Compliance & Public Affairs, Flexible Benefit Service Corporation (Flex). With the ACA weighing on employers' every health care decision, it is no surprise that they are doing whatever they can to stabilize costs for themselves, while better engaging their employees into the cost-sharing process. The integration of consumer-driven health accounts has rapidly emerged at the workplace as a key strategy to combat rising health care costs. As an advocate in this marketplace, Flex pondered how many employers are offering these plans, how offer rates differ by employer size and, in light of the ACA, what the future holds for their growth or demise. In this segment, David and the hosts will discuss the key findings from a recent survey that collected responses from more than 500 employers of all sizes throughout the U.S.
The second guest on this week's program will be Rod Reasen, Chief Executive Officer of Healthiest Employers. The wearable movement is here. In fact, according to a new survey from Healthiest Employers, 54 percent of employers are looking to purchase wearables in the next twelve months. Yet, only seven percent have a plan to use the data to improve health. In this interview, Rod and the hosts will outline what employers want in an a wearable, the reasons to purchase and how to "connect the dots" between activity and outcomes.

Creation Energies channeled by Brenda Hoffman
in Spirituality
Summary of the July 23, 2015 Creation Energies show - Brenda's 15-minute channel at www.BlogTalkRadio.com/brenda-hoffman: It's likely more difficult for you to be around those who do not share love even though you assumed they would be part of your life forever. You're also learning new concepts that don't always resonate for/with you. Instead of continuing duality by expressing your need to be right, know that such is your unique growth process that doesn't require shifting thoughts of others including any space aliens you may encounter.
Moving into a Radical Shift is the title of this week's Brenda's Blog - her channel for www.LifeTapestry Creations.com.
Overview of the July 31, 2015 Creation Energies show:

Camille Paglia Can Be Right and Dead Wrong
in Self Help
This week many news outlets and media sites are publishing Camille Paglia's interview in Salon. All three posts have thus far been a compelling read and while Paglia makes some undeniable great points and backs them up as well, it's important for readers to take her own advice.
Paglia says its incumbent for every American to get their news from a variety of sources...Left, Right and otherwise in order to be 1) fully informed and 2) be able to extrapolate something resembling truth from the various agendas presenting the "facts."
No less true for discerning Paglia's position on a variety of subjects. She has a long history of political commentary and purports to be an atheist and a Libertarian. But scratching beneath the surface of her words, and examining context as well, may tell a different story...at least about her alleged Libertarianism.
Join us for an in-depth look at what all the interest is about and how much of what she has to say rings true.
