a Bible passage
The Shunammite Woman's Land Restored
Now Elisha had said to the woman whose son he had restored to life, "Get up and go with your household, and settle wherever you can; for the Lord has called for a famine, and it will come on the land for seven years." 2So the woman got up and did according to the word of the man of God; she went with her household and settled in the land of the Philistines seven years. 3At the end of the seven years, when the woman returned from the land of the Philistines, she set out to appeal to the king for her house and her land. 4Now the king was talking with Gehazi the servant of the man of God, saying, "Tell me all the great things that Elisha has done." 5While he was telling the king how Elisha had restored a dead person to life, the woman whose son he had restored to life appealed to the king for her house and her land. Gehazi said, "My lord king, here is the woman, and here is her son whom Elisha restored to life." 6When the king questioned the woman, she told him. So the king appointed an official for her, saying, "Restore all that was hers, together with all the revenue of the fields from the day that she left the land until now."
Death of Ben-hadad
7 Elisha went to Damascus while King Ben-hadad of Aram was ill. When it was told him, "The man of God has come here," 8the king said to Hazael, "Take a present with you and go to meet the man of God. Inquire of the Lord through him, whether I shall recover from this illness." 9So Hazael went to meet him, taking a present with him, all kinds of goods of Damascus, forty camel loads. When he entered and stood before him, he said, "Your son King Ben-hadad of Aram has sent me to you, saying, 'Shall I recover from this illness?' " 10Elisha said to him, "Go, say to him, 'You shall certainly recover'; but the Lord has shown me that he shall certainly die." 11He fixed his gaze and stared at him, until he was ashamed. Then the man of God wept. 12Hazael asked, "Why does my lord weep?" He answered, "Because I know the evil that you will do to the people of Israel; you will set their fortresses on fire, you will kill their young men with the sword, dash in pieces their little ones, and rip up their pregnant women." 13Hazael said, "What is your servant, who is a mere dog, that he should do this great thing?" Elisha answered, "The Lord has shown me that you are to be king over Aram." 14Then he left Elisha, and went to his master Ben-hadad, who said to him, "What did Elisha say to you?" And he answered, "He told me that you would certainly recover." 15But the next day he took the bed-cover and dipped it in water and spread it over the king's face, until he died. And Hazael succeeded him.
Jehoram Reigns over Judah
16 In the fifth year of King Joram son of Ahab of Israel, Jehoram son of King Jehoshaphat of Judah began to reign. 17He was thirty-two years old when he became king, and he reigned eight years in Jerusalem. 18He walked in the way of the kings of Israel, as the house of Ahab had done, for the daughter of Ahab was his wife. He did what was evil in the sight of the Lord. 19Yet the Lord would not destroy Judah, for the sake of his servant David, since he had promised to give a lamp to him and to his descendants forever.
20 In his days Edom revolted against the rule of Judah, and set up a king of their own. 21Then Joram crossed over to Zair with all his chariots. He set out by night and attacked the Edomites and their chariot commanders who had surrounded him; but his army fled home. 22So Edom has been in revolt against the rule of Judah to this day. Libnah also revolted at the same time. 23Now the rest of the acts of Joram, and all that he did, are they not written in the Book of the Annals of the Kings of Judah? 24So Joram slept with his ancestors, and was buried with them in the city of David; his son Ahaziah succeeded him.
Ahaziah Reigns over Judah
25 In the twelfth year of King Joram son of Ahab of Israel, Ahaziah son of King Jehoram of Judah began to reign. 26Ahaziah was twenty-two years old when he began to reign; he reigned one year in Jerusalem. His mother's name was Athaliah, a granddaughter of King Omri of Israel. 27He also walked in the way of the house of Ahab, doing what was evil in the sight of the Lord, as the house of Ahab had done, for he was son-in-law to the house of Ahab.
28 He went with Joram son of Ahab to wage war against King Hazael of Aram at Ramoth-gilead, where the Arameans wounded Joram. 29King Joram returned to be healed in Jezreel of the wounds that the Arameans had inflicted on him at Ramah, when he fought against King Hazael of Aram. King Ahaziah son of Jehoram of Judah went down to see Joram son of Ahab in Jezreel, because he was wounded.
Verses 1–6
The kindness of the good Shunammite to Elisha, was rewarded by the care taken of her in famine. It is well to foresee an evil, and wisdom, when we foresee it, to hide ourselves if we lawfully may do so. When the famine was over, she returned out of the land of the Philistines; that was no proper place for an Israelite, any longer than there was necessity for it. Time was when she dwelt so securely among her own people, that she had no occasion to be spoken for to the king; but there is much uncertainty in this life, so that things or persons may fail us which we most depend upon, and those befriend us which we think we shall never need. Sometimes events, small in themselves, prove of consequence, as here; for they made the king ready to believe Gehazi's narrative, when thus confirmed. It made him ready to grant her request, and to support a life which was given once and again by miracle.
Verses 7–15
Among other changes of men's minds by affliction, it often gives other thoughts of God's ministers, and teaches to value the counsels and prayers of those whom they have hated and despised. It was not in Hazael's countenance that Elisha read what he would do, but God revealed it to him, and it fetched tears from his eyes: the more foresight men have, the more grief they are liable to. It is possible for a man, under the convictions and restraints of natural conscience, to express great abhorrence of a sin, yet afterwards to be reconciled to it. Those that are little and low in the world, cannot imagine how strong the temptations of power and prosperity are, which, if ever they arrive at, they will find how deceitful their hearts are, how much worse than they suspected. The devil ruins men, by saying they shall certainly recover and do well, so rocking them asleep in security. Hazael's false account was an injury to the king, who lost the benefit of the prophet's warning to prepare for death, and an injury to Elisha, who would be counted a false prophet. It is not certain that Hazael murdered his master, or if he caused his death it may have been without any design. But he was a dissembler, and afterwards proved a persecutor to Israel.
Verses 16–24
A general idea is given of Jehoram's badness. His father, no doubt, had him taught the true knowledge of the Lord, but did ill to marry him to the daughter of Ahab; no good could come of union with an idolatrous family.
Verses 25–29
Names do not make natures, but it was bad for Jehoshaphat's family to borrow names from Ahab's. Ahaziah's relation to Ahab's family was the occasion of his wickedness and of his fall. When men choose wives for themselves, let them remember they are choosing mothers for their children. Providence so ordered it, that Ahaziah might be cut off with the house of Ahab, when the measure of their iniquity was full. Those who partake with sinners in their sin, must expect to partake with them in their plagues. May all the changes, troubles, and wickedness of the world, make us more earnest to obtain an interest in the salvation of Christ.

Cornerstone - Calls On AG for Investigation of Planned Parenthood
New Hampshire currently has little to no regulation on abortion practices or facilities, leaving taxpayers to wonder of their money being used by an organization trafficking in fetal body parts. In fact this illegal and inhumane practice could already be taking place in the State and at the expense of taxpayers. Cornerstone urges the Attorney General to fully investigate the use of New Hampshire tax dollars by Planned Parenthood. Taxpayers deserve accountability and transparency from every organization doing business with the state.
As Political Director Sarah Koski notes, "New Hampshire's lack of regulation makes it a great target for this kind of abuse, and our taxpayer's hard-earned dollars should not under any circumstances be used to support practices like the ones documented by the Planned Parenthood's own doctor in the Center for Medical Progress video. Our citizens deserve to know how and where their money is being spent."

Petcetera News & Notes from WHS Why We Love Linda For her dedication to helping shelter dogs improve their manners and skills, longtime volunteer Linda Crosby has been selected to receive this quarter's Volunteer Spotlight Award. Linda started volunteering for Willamette Humane in 2001 as a dog walker. When the shelter started the Canine Coach program, Linda began working one-on-one with dogs that needed additional training and socialization. Linda says that's when she really fell in love with volunteering because she found it rewarding to see the dogs learn and grow. Linda says she has learned more from the dogs than they could ever learn from her, but staff and volunteers at WHS respectfully disagree! As one nomination states, "Linda is amazing. She devotes many hours each week to helping the animals and has a true gift for working with dogs. What she does truly saves lives!" Thanks to Linda, dozens of shelter dogs have improved their manners and found new forever homes, including Rocky, a Retriever mix that Linda worked with for many weeks (see what Rocky's new family has to say about him in the Happy Tails section on page 6). Congrats, Linda, and thank you for your steadfast commitment to the animals at Willamette Humane. 24PetWatch Announces Changes to Buy a Tree; Microchip Registry Service Help a Pet At WHS, every adoptable pet is implanted with a microchip Enjoy the tradition prior to adoption.

Cargill Foundation, Willamette Humane Society will provide 600 subsidized spay or neuter surgeries for cats owned by community members who receive federal or state income assistance. Eligible families can have a female cat spayed for $20 or a male cat neutered for $10 in Willamette Humane's Spay & Neuter Clinic. Clinic staff hope to complete the 600 subsidized surgeries by April 30, before the onslaught of "Kitten Season" which usually starts in mid May and continues through October. During Kitten Season, Willamette Humane can receive as many as 300 cats each week, including dozens of stray litters. Since opening its low-cost, high quality spay & neuter clinic in January 2010, Willamette Humane has altered more than 9,000 animals in an effort to fight pet overpopulation and reduce the number of pets that enter the shelter each year. Families or individuals who receive some form of government assistance are eligible for the special subsidized surgery rate.

As a member of our President's Club for her lifetime financial support, she doubles her commitment to the homeless animals. Mary knows she makes a difference NOW and she knows she will make a difference in the future by leaving a legacy from her estate. Why? She says, "I've always had at least one animal in my life. They give me so much joy, I just want to return the gift." You can leave a legacy, too. Contact Susan Carey to join the Legacy Society today (503) 585-5900 ext. 305 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

Thanks to the generosity of our donors, we assisted approximately one in five households in the Salem/Keizer area last year through sheltering, adoption, spay/neuter services, canine training, humane education and other services. We are proud to be a vital component of this community, providing critical and unduplicated services to the animals and people who love their pets. 2010-2011 Program Accomplishments Sheltering & Medical Care We took in 7,841 dogs, cats and other animals last year. Euthanasia and/or cremation services were requested for 1,240 of those animals. The remaining 6,601 stray or surrendered pets received an initial health and behavior evaluation that included vaccinations, flea prevention, and de-worming. Animals in the adoption pool also received expanded health care, special diets or behavior modification depending on need. Adoptions & Saving Lives Brennan At Willamette Humane Society, we work to save as many lives as possible. We do not impose artificial time limits on adoptable pets. As long as an animal stays healthy and temperamentally sound, he or she will remain in our adoption pro- gram. In 2010-11, we saved a total of 3,247 animals – animals like Brennan, who arrived at our shelter malnourished and underweight. Thanks to the care she received from a volunteer foster family, she returned to the shelter healthy, strong and ready to find a new home. The day after she became available, she was adopted into a loving home. In 2010-11, we facilitated: • 2,373 adoptions • 767 transfers to partner rescue groups • 107 reunions with lost pets and their owners Humane Education Our classroom education program promoting the humane treatment of animals, proper pet care, and safety around animals reached 10,349 students last year. In addition: • 1,711 students attended shelter tours • 180 youth took part in our Camp Paw Paw or Junior Animal Trainers' day camps • 36 birthday children brought their friends and family to celebrate at the shelter Behavior & Training We redesigned our canine training curriculum last year and expanded both basic and advanced classes. Staff and volunteers also worked one-on-one with many shelter animals, utilizing the principles outlined in Open Paw® - a socialization and train- ing program designed to enhance pets' adoptability. Junior, a young Retriever mix, got a second chance thanks to the staff and volunteers who spent many hours helping him build confidence and gain new skills. His adopters describe him as "the greatest dog…who fits right in with our family." In 2010-11, we: • Trained 338 dogs in classes • Answered 291 inquiries through our free Behavior Helpline • Held private consultations with 36 pet owners • Welcomed 322 households to our free Intro to Training Seminar Volunteers Volunteers are critical in helping WHS meet the needs of both pets and people in our community. They provided care, reha- bilitation and socialization for the animals, staffed events, assisted with groundskeeping duties, offered administrative support, and helped operate our retail and thrift store locations. • 789 volunteers gave 52,132 hours last year. • Their work provided the services and support equal to 25 full-time staff members PAGE 2 / WHS ANNUAL REPORT 2010-2011 Program Accomplishments continued Spay/Neuter Assistance & Veterinary Care The Willamette Humane Society Spay & Neuter Clinic is dedicated to ending shelter overpopulation by providing low-cost, high-quality sterilization services for our community's cats and dogs. In 2010-11, the Clinic performed 5,108 surgeries. We provided additional veterinary care such as dental cleanings, amputations, and other surgeries to enhance the adoptability of many shelter pets including Zing, pictured here. Zing underwent surgery to remove some benign masses, received twice daily treatment for an ear infection and medicated baths to heal a skin condition. Today, she enjoys a Zing happy, healthy life with her new family. WHS would also like to thank the following veterinarians for their ongoing generosity in providing services to shelter pets: Dr. Julie DeMarco, Whole Pet Veterinary Care Dr. Kim Erbes, Salem Veterinary Emergency Clinic Dr. Richard Hillmer, Oak Hills Veterinary Clinic & Salem Cat Clinic Dr. Jerry Schwartz, Animal Care Center Dr. Maegan Weekly, Willamette Valley Animal Hospital Dr. Darci Murphy Food Assistance We provided emergency food assistance to help struggling community members feed their pets and keep them in their homes. Last year, we distributed 24,464 pounds of pet food which helped feed 2,556 cats and 1,688 dogs. Awareness & Outreach In addition to raising critical funds, the Community Relations & Development team works to bring the mission of Willamette Humane to the public through outreach events and the media. We reached approximately 20% of the households in Marion & Polk Counties last year through our vital services and programs. In addition, we: • Attended 13 outreach events • Generated 228 newspaper, magazine & online print media placements • Grew our Facebook fan base to 1,216 fans (a 63% increase over the previous year) Humane Legacy Society Those who have chosen to remember us in their wills or other long-term financial plans are members of our Humane Legacy Society. WHS deeply appreciates the following gifts received in 2010-11 from these visionaries.

Dear ITU, please don't bill Internet use like phone calls
Aurich Lawson / Thinkstock "Operating agencies shall negotiate commercial agreements to achieve a sustainable system of fair compensation for telecommunications services and, where appropriate, respecting the principle of sending party network pays." That's the input that a number of former monopoly, European telecoms sent to the member states of the United Nation's International Telecommunication Union (ITU). Why? Because, for the first time since 1998, the ITU will be negotiating new international telecom regulations from December 3 to 14 in Dubai. And that meeting will mark the first opportunity for the ITU to bring Internet issues under its umbrella. Don't be fooled by the opaque wording above. If that request was put into practice, service providers get to prioritize certain types of Internet traffic and "the sending party"—a network generating content, like Netflix, Youtube, and maybe even Google or Ars—has to pay for the privilege of reaching consumers. Although opinions differ on whether free, unregulated markets are the universal solution to all problems, it's hard to argue against the success of this model in the case of the Internet.

text: BROKEN REALITY - Secrets unveiled (full) revealing mix/mastering, with rock part, June -12 by Fredrik Park published on 2012/06/27 21:36:24 +0000 New improved and also revealing version of my Broken Reality - choirs composition. This track is depicting a pre-defined mini-story, going through different kinds of emotions and mysterious references. A bit too rapidly so, perhaps, but all the more challenging to figure out some of the detailed metaphors and deep thoughts on different perspectives, as opposed to black and white, right or wrong only. ;) It uses lots of symbolism in the choosen instruments, and in the musical & emotional directions in different parts of the track. (including choice of rythms, harmonies & chords) Most things symbolise different emotions and/or thoughts in the specific order of the tune.I also added quite a few more subliminal and hidden symbols, for the hardcore analyzers out there. Some might still be difficult to spot, but there are also some new hints for you to notice for the first time in clearer mix/mastering. You might even hear the choir lyrics by now eh. The messages and purposes of that is partly that even such can be intepreted very differently, not judging you to be right or wrong about your own perception or guesses, or even conclusions. Deeper description on this track at my Youtube channel: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rF2aTw0Q4MI&feature=channel_video_title ...Happy listening and analyzing! ;) / Fredrik Comment by Fredrik Park @lee-lucas: I'm very grateful to maintain recieving your close attention for my works, old friend! I look forward to comment back on more of your own thoughtful tracks! 2015/01/17 17:32:17 +0000 Comment by Fredrik Park @lee-lucas: Means a lot, bro! At the time, it was the best sound I could achieve, but I still am very proud of the composition, the MIDI programming and the work with allegories. 2015/01/17 17:29:21 +0000 Comment by Fredrik Park @lee-lucas: I'm really happy with composing aspects of the piece, and the fusion of elements. Thank you so much, Lee! 2015/01/17 17:26:56 +0000 Comment by Fredrik Park @lee-lucas: Thanks! I originally didn't plan to use piano as an intro, but there is a certain allegorical difference between the intro piano and the outro piano. So I'm still happy with it, and that it was received so well, even though the piano intro doesn't have specific references like the rest of the track have. I'm hoping for some new keyboard treats from yourself soon too! 2015/01/17 17:23:10 +0000 Comment by Lee >>> Lucas Very well enjoying these pieces again and what a cracking set I am hearing my friend. Brilliant work... 2015/01/16 16:15:09 +0000 Comment by Lee >>> Lucas Awesome how the drums come into play...and now it's ROCKING.......... 2015/01/16 16:14:16 +0000 Comment by Lee >>> Lucas Love the theme and the the superb orchestration... 2015/01/16 16:13:50 +0000 Comment by Lee >>> Lucas Purely super job on the keys here mate... 2015/01/16 16:12:53 +0000 Comment by Fredrik Park @jonnie91: Thanks a lot for the kind words, Jonathan! It IS a very dear track to me, for several personal reasons too. I encoded lots of subtle references in it, but it means a lot to hear it's emotionally connecting with you as well! Recently, I have more products that could have made certain elements sound more realistic, like the rock/metal instruments. But I was happy that the mixing felt well balanced! Enjoyed your emotional rescoring of your "Nothing but misery" remake. Let's keep in touch to exchange more comments! 2015/01/01 16:34:51 +0000 Comment by JStewartMusic This is both haunting and beautiful. The depth of emotions that this piece contains is just outstanding. I wish I could critique further, but to be honest I can find little wrong with it. the track is mixed to perfection, there is just an overflow of different emotions. Beautiful work. absolutely stunning. 2015/01/01 14:07:14 +0000 Comment by Fredrik Park @tim-coffey-music: Thank you so much, bro! Very happy to reconnect and hear your recent deep works! 2014/07/15 14:13:59 +0000 Comment by Axiom Onexus I had forgotten how brilliant of a track this was, great work! 2014/07/14 15:00:56 +0000 Comment by Fredrik Park Thank you so much, Adair! Very happy that my personal music appeals to you, in a similar way that your music does to me, I think. 2014/04/06 22:34:11 +0000 Comment by AmusicBrew Love the foreboding.... piano intro beautiful 2014/03/28 19:11:46 +0000 Comment by Fredrik Park @marion-thomas-ybarra: Thanks Marion! 2014/03/28 16:09:47 +0000

It wasn't just a movie and popcorn for film critic Roger Ebert when he attended a screening at the Toronto Film Festival on Saturday.
According to the NY Daily News, Roger was attacked by New York Post film critic Lou Lumenick, as the Chicago Sun-Times writer attended "Slumdog Millionaire" a film by Danny Boyle ("Trainspotting") that's been receiving Oscar buzz.
A source told the paper that after the lights went down, "a man in the audience started yelling, 'Don't touch me!' People looked around and shrugged. Ten minutes later, the voice yells again, 'I said don't touch me!'"
A few minutes later, "The guy stands up in the darkness and thwacks the guy behind him with a big festival binder. He hit him so hard everybody could hear it. Everyone freaked out and turned around," the source added
Roger, 66, who is currently battling thyroid and salivary cancer and can no longer speak, issued a response to the incident in the Chicago Sun-Times.
"If it were up to me, you would never have heard about the incident at the Toronto Film Festival on the morning of Sept. 6 when a fellow critic whacked me with a rolled-up program or a festival binder or something. It has been blown out of proportion. It is of little interest," Roger wrote.
He explained that he had difficulty reading the subtitles due to his neck surgery and because Lumenick was leaning into the aisle and blocking his view. When he tapped Lumenick on the shoulder repeatedly to get his attention, the situation escalated.
Roger continued to say that the story spread, turning into a rumor about him being "beat up." In his response, Roger noted that he is more than capable of taking care of himself.
"I have had my problems, but I promise you I am plenty hearty enough to withstand a smack, and quite happy, after the smack, to tap him again," Roger wrote. "I had to see those subtitles. There was no pain. The incident is over. Peace."

This was a historically significant battle, as it ended the first French Empire and ended Napoleons career. We climbed the 226 steps to the top of the Lions Hillock which gives excellent views of the battlefield, now farm land.

The Barraki are conversing about the Ignika and how to find it. Kalmah explains what the Ignika can do for them, should they get their hands on it, and Ehlek suggests that they split up to find the Mask of Life.
Meanwhile, a Po-Matoran named Dekar has already found the Ignika and intends to destroy it because he believes it is too powerful for anyone to possess.
Elsewhere, Takadox visits Nocturn and asks if he has seen the Mask of Life. Nocturn says he has not seen the Ignika but Takadox questions him again. Nocturn again says he has not seen the Ignika and threatens Takadox that he will snap him in two, and Takadox uses his hypnotic power on Nocturn, giving him instructions should the Mask of Life fall into his hands.
Meanwhile, the other Barraki question a captured Matoran from the underwater city of Mahri Nui and explore areas of the sea that even they have not ventured before. Ehlek uses the search for the Mask of Life to his own ends and gathers his army of Venom Eels to attack Mahri Nui. While this happens, Takadox waits for Mantax at the ocean floor. Kalmah grabs Takadox using one of his tentacles and questions Takadox why he is "skulking" behind the rocks. He answers by saying, "Every night Mantax vanishes beneath the sea floor and stays there for hours. I waited here so I could follow him." Kalmah and Takadox then follow Mantax into The Pit, all the while conversing with each other. Takadox then remembers why he hates Kalmah. They swim through the entrance to the remains of The Pit and spot Mantax. Kalmah and Takadox hear something close up the entrance.
The new residents of The Pit are the Zyglak and they are coming for the three re-imprisoned Barraki.
