Who is "The Shoeshine Pastor," and what does shining shoes have to do with Compassion?
You can also view The Shoeshine Pastor video on YouTube.
This video is so powerful. I showed this during a Compassion Sunday presentation last year and promised the congregation I would try to update them on Pastor Kim and his sponsored children. Does anyone have any recent information about him?
I spoke with one of my co-workers who was in Korea a few months ago. She got to worship at Pastor Kim's church and
had the privilege of having lunch with him and his wife (and meeting his 2 children).
She said that Pastor Kim is much worse. Although he did preach, his words were very slurred and it was difficult to understand him.
He can no longer climb stairs, so he now lives in a tiny room next to where the church meets. The room has a mattress and a desk and a place to eat. There is a small kitchen and his wife makes his meals there.
His wife still lives in their home, but spends a great deal of each day with Pastor Kim to help him move around.
His medical bills are being covered by friends and acquaintances, and Pastor Kim believes STRONGLY that he will be healed. We are praying the same.
Wow, is that ever humbling! Praying for Rev. Kim and his health. I hope his sponsored children will learn of what he has done and that the example he has set will influence those children and all the other lives Rev. Kim will touch.
I am totally humbled by that gentleman. What a great, great, great welcome will be waiting for him when he goes home to Heaven.
So powerful. Wow. God moves in so many lives because of this pastor. We can all make a difference…
Thank you for sharing this!
Does anyone know how Pastor Kim is doing? Is there any way that we can write or email a note of encouragement to him or to his family through Compassion? He inspired me to write letters in such a way as to know what my kids' dreams are so that I can pray for that and encourage them in those dreams. I am so thankful for him and for his heart for God, the lost and his Compassion kids! He truly is a great man of God!

Join 71,024,531 users who chose ShareFile for their business. Who's signing up right now?
Productivity is king in today's workplace. So, why are many businesses still using email or FTP as a method of file sharing? Email only works with small attachment sizes and does nothing to ensure the confidentiality of transferred information. FTP can slow productivity with complicated login and software requirements and often requires use of IT staff during setup. Standard FTP does not encrypt data in transit, a major concern for industries where data privacy is important. To stay productive in a fast-paced business climate, companies must employ a solution that will aid in secure file sharing.
Citrix ShareFile is a secure file sharing solution that offers a variety of ways to connect with coworkers and clients. ShareFile can be accessed from any web browser, and it does not require the opening of additional ports or special software to use it. The use of SSL encryption protects the privacy of all passwords and data. ShareFile power tools, like the ShareFile Plugin for Outlook, allow users to send files directly from their desktop and other applications. Instead of attachments, recipients receive a link to the content so shared files are never sent via the email server. Mobile apps allow for seamless access to all your files on the go. Company productivity is increased with this one-stop-shop solution.
Using ShareFile is easy, fast and secure and gives you control over data. To save time, you can easily send a file to multiple recipients from the web app, plugin or mobile apps. ShareFile lets you track account activity so you'll know exactly when your recipients have viewed or downloaded a file.
Client users, remote or traveling employees can access ShareFile from mobile apps for easy document viewing. Multiple ways to access files ensure that your users can view documents and respond anytime that is convenient for them. ShareFile provides flexibility so you get the most out of the file sharing service.
With all these great features, ShareFile will become an integral part of your business. Sign up for a free trial today and start file sharing with ease.

A Trio of Our Most Fearsome Creatures, Sold Exclusively at Spencer's
Friday, April 14, 2006
McFarlane's Monsters: Classic Horror deluxe action figure 3-pack brings three of monsterdom's most horrific monstrosities in a limited-edition boxed set.
Originally released as part of our very first assortment of McFarlane's Monsters action figures, these fan-favorite creatures of the night are practically guaranteed to induce the heeby-jeebies.
Check out the photos, and try to ignore that sinister feeling that something evil is lying in wait.
The immortal Prince of Darkness is known to take many forms. In the guise of man he can be charismatic and persuasive, but in his many other forms -- bat, wolf, monster or mist -- he is the stuff of nightmares. Fangs bared and driven by an unquenchable lust for blood, he preys on the innocent to sustain his own wretched life.
A hulking creature of twisted origin, Frankenstein's monster was created from a hodgepodge of human remains plundered from a peasant cemetery. Hunted and persecuted as an abomination, the slow-witted, yet immensely strong behemoth wanders the globe with the decaying corpse of his creator strapped to his back -- a constant companion in a cruel and hateful world.
Bones creak and the rotten, fetid smell of death fills the air. Returned from the Land of the Dead by an ancient, evil curse, the Mummy stalks the world of the living on an unending quest for vengeance against those who disturbed his eternal slumber.
The McFarlane's Monsters: Classic Horror deluxe 3-pack is a Spencer's exclusive, scheduled to reach stores in October.

Razzies Nominations Announced: Twilight, Katherine Heigl, and Adam Sandler Make List of Year's Worst Films
Brace yourselves, Twihards!
The Razzie awards — which spoof the Hollywood awards season by picking out the worst films and acting performances of the year — have announced their nominations from 2012's slate of films, and let's just say that Twilight fans may want to sit down to hear this news.
The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn — Part 2 had the most nominations of any film this year with a total of 11. That includes a nom for Worst Picture of the Year, along with Worst Acting noms for Kristen Stewart, Rob Pattinson, and Taylor Lautner. Harsh!
The movie also became the first film ever to be nominated twice in the Worst Screen Couple category, with Jacob and Renesmee joining Bella and Edward as the two singled out couples.
Also collecting plenty of Razzie nods was Adam Sandler, whose box office bomb That's My Boy racked up eight nominations, including Worst Picture and Worst Actor. Adam's co-star Leighton Meester was also mentioned as one of the bad actors in the film.
Katherine Heigl was nominated for Worst Actress for her film One For the Money, which we're guessing roughly "one" person saw, while the Jersey Shore cast earned a nom as a group for appearing in The Three Stooges. And former American Idol judge Jennifer Lopez was singled out for What to Expect When You're Expecting.
The "winners" will be announced on Saturday, February 23, the day before the Oscar ceremony. This is one awards show where no one will say, "It's an honor just to be nominated."

iPad Uses Micro-SIM for 3G. What is it and Will the 4th Gen iPhone Get It?
The 3G version of the iPad is unlocked, so if your carrier supports micro-SIM, it should "just work". Wait... what? Steve Jobs dropped the micro-SIM comment so matter-of-factly during the iPad introduction that it took us a moment to process -- Micro-SIM, aka 3FF or 3rd generation SIM card. Yeah, don't have one of those, and neither does any iPhone. Awkward...!
PCMag's Sacha Seagan fills us in:
3FF SIMs were developed by the European Telecommunications Standards Institute to fit into devices too small for a regular SIM. Where a regular SIM measures 15 millimeters x 25 mm, a 3FF SIM card measures 12mm x 15mm.
Today's "regular" or mini-SIM is the 2FF, much smaller than the credit card-sized SIM that was generation one, and the 3FF is teensy-tinier still. Sure, no one in North America uses them yet, but T-Mobile is getting them, AT&T is obviously getting them since they're supporting the iPad with data plans, and we're guessing over the next 3-6 months, more carriers will get on board too. (Engadget is saying the pipeline is set for Orange and O2).
And the reason why Apple went with the Micro-SIM in the iPad? Could be they needed to save space in a device already twice the size of an iPhone. Could be it's just Apple being kill-the-floppy-drop-firewire-Apple. If that's the case, it's quite possible the 4th gen iPhone will get it next, and then what would Apple do with all that extra space?

iPad Uses Micro-SIM for 3G. What is it and Will the 4th Gen iPhone Get It?
Probably this was chosen so your iPad sim won't fit in the iphone, not so much the other way around. Wouldn't want a quick way to get at that 14.99 data plan when you decide to use your iphone as a Touch.
I expect it will take a whole three months for someone to come up with an iphone sim carrier to fit it.
They better utualize th extra space in the 4th gen IPhone and put flash
My billing cycle is over and I used 486.21 MB. Some of my web browsing is done at home where I have wireless. But the majority of my browsing is done at work where there unfortunately is no wireless. For those that have wireless at home and work, they could probably get away with the $14.99 plan. Or no 3g at all. What about you?
Just google SIM COPY and shut up already. "teensie" wtf?
Why would Apple care if you move the SIM card from your phone to the iPad? AT&T aren't subsidising the device (unlike the iPhone) and should have had NO say in its design.
This will be a pain for mobile operators around the world who will have to introduce a micro-SIM just to support the iPad.
apple most likely went to micro sim to make it harder for for someone to switch from ATT. Who knows.
If you use this primarily for web/email/games/using media loaded from iTunes, 250MB should be plenty. If you download movies or download/stream music to the iPad on a regular basis, it won't be.
I can see myself doing just fine with 250MB, especially considering most of my use would be at home where I have wifi. In fact, other than road trips, I could probably get by with the wifi-only model. I think the two contract-free data plans are a great idea.
There are a lot of regular SIM cards in data only devices (such as 3G modems). If you try to call a SIM in a data-only device, you won't be able to get through. Pretty simple.
Why would Apple care if you switched from AT&T? There is nothing stopping T-Mobile from introducing a micro-SIM for the iPad (assuming consumers are willing to live with EDGE).
How do you know what happens when you put a voice+Data sim into a Data Only device? Been there? Tried that?
Sure you can't call a data only device, it has no phone number. But pop a voice sim in and it does.
In any event, it seems rather presumptuous of Apple to usurp an industry standard sim format (albeit one not commonly used) for their temporary convenience.
I was planning on getting the WiFi only version when it's out over here in the UK. Then couple it with one of these. O2's 3G coverage sucks where I am. This means I can share my PAYG data bundle from another provider (Three mobile) with my O2 locked iPhone.http://threestore.three.co.uk/broadband/?mifi=1
You got any similar options in the ooh-ess-aay?
The smaller SIM Cards make sense for smaller form factors, etc. But this also seems to prevent iPhone users from popping their SIM in the iPad to use the data temporarily. There should be tethering from iPhone to iPad at no extra charge!
This is a great. I cant wait for the iPad to be in stock
I've definitely tried that! I've been using GSM data-only devices since my first 16-bit PCMCIA GPRS (no EDGE) card almost a decade ago. My first GSM phone was the Nokia 5110 brick.
I'm pretty sure all active GSM/UMTS SIM cards have a number associated with it. All the SIM cards I've purchased with data-only devices have had numbers (from multiple carriers in Australia and the UK).
The software that comes with most 3GSM data cards also allow you to send and receive SMSs from your computer (if your carrier allows it).
If AT&T did make a deal with Apple, how would it work? Is Apple paying AT&T or the other way round?
@Nath: Look up the Sprint and/or Verizon MiFi
I have got 2 micro sim adapter from www.noosyapple.com.that's fantasitic.i can use the micro sim on my iphone now.I also noted they aslo made micro sim cutter,we can use that to cut my original sim card(1525mm) to micro sim(1215mm).
A week ago bought micro sim adapter from www.gomicrosim.com. Costs only 4.5 EUR. Really worth it. Now use my simcard in both Ipad and Iphone. Should save me 1440$ since there is no need to sign for the 2 year AT&T plan. Highly recommend this seller, his price and delivery options are the best so far.
I have searched the web and have found that no all microSIM adapters are the same. Only one shop www.microsim2sim.com offers the lowest price adapter with a special adhesive layer that keeps the sim card well in place. They also offer a cliche sticker that comes along with the adapter. Thats the best deal on the market right now.
Thanks for the hint Steven, but i have discovered this www.microsim2sim.com shop about a week ago and just got my microSIM adapter delivered today. The microSIM does really stay in place at any angle which makes it almost like a normal SIM card. Great deal, by far the best on the market.
Guys, from now on there is no need to sign up for two Ipad microsim plans! A week ago I bought the micro sim adapter from www.gomicrosim.com, and now I can use one micro sim card for all apple stuff and other mobile phones. Costs only 4.5 EUR. Really worth it. Should save me 1440$, since now i have no need to sign for another 2 years plan with AT&T. Highly recommend this seller, his price and delivery options are the best so far.
I have got my microsim adapter from http://microsim2sim.com . As far as i know, they are the only ones that offer microsim adapters as well as a microsim cutter sticker. They currently have the best offer and a free shipping. The sticker is extremelly useful since i have preordered a new iPhone 4 and i would be able to use the sim card from my old phone.
I just go my Micro Sim Adapter within 2 days from www.microsimdiscount.com - they offer free shipping via airmail, so its really fast. Also the adapter comes with stickers and quality is excellent.
These is the great option for micro-SIM, very durable for your precious gadgets.
I found these great guys - www.ihandystore.com
They are the only one seller of micro sim adapters in UK and I just get mine. I must say I didn't thought it would be so cool, it's just what I was needed, it does the trick and I think I saved a lot of money with that thing. They also offer these cool looking skins called iDecal case, I think I'm gona try it out, it should give my iPhone 4 a great individual look.
Be sure to check them out these guys can be trusted.
Thank you for making this site so easy to find information. good stuff. Saving this one for later.
Great reviews. I have seen the Pro Case for iPad reviewed here on YouTube (sells in the UK for $36). It goes by the name of SUPREME PRO iPAD BLACK LEATHER STAND CASE POUCH HOLDER on eBay. It has more viewing angles and looks really solid. Maybe you can check this one out and make a comparison for us versus the Marware and Yoobao cases.
Thanks for posting the videos on how to replace an iPhone screen. Have just ordered up a new screen so am about to try it out on my first phone.
Pretty part of content. I simply stumbled upon your blog and in accession capital to assert that I get in fact enjoyed account your blog posts. Anyway I will be subscribing to your feeds or even I success you get entry to constantly rapidly.

*Array lacks the hydrophobic coating needed for sample containment; a hydrophobic PAP pen can be used to manually create the barrier.
Biomarker Discovery Using SELDI Technology
Proper study and experimental design coupled with the correct data analysis approach are critical components of successful biomarker discovery, no matter which technology, platform, or workflow is used. Bio-Rad has produced two in-depth guides to provide researchers with strategies for success.
The first guide, Biomarker Discovery Using SELDI Technology — A Guide to Successful Study and Experimental Design, provides a series of general guidelines for effective study design using virtually any proteomics technology, and gives specific recommendations for using the ProteinChip surface-enhanced laser desorption/ionization (SELDI) system. This guide also includes:
The second guide, Biomarker Discovery Using SELDI Technology — A Guide to Data Processing and Analysis Using ProteinChip Data Manager Software, is a comprehensive resource for data analysis workflows, guidelines, and specific recommendations for analyzing biomarker discovery data. The guide covers:
The ProteinChip SEND (surface-enhanced neat desorption) ID array incorporates energy absorbing matrix into the array surface to reduce the chemical noise in spectra often caused by application of a separate matrix layer.
The ProteinChip SEND ID array also incorporates a hydrophobic interaction functional group, allowing both on-chip cleanup of peptide samples as well as neat application of samples. With this array, the ProteinChip SELDI system can be used to analyze lower molecular weight species with fewer interfering peaks, significantly improving sensitivity.
Refer to the ProteinChip Array Selection Guide for more information on selecting arrays with the appropriate surface chemistries.
What is the education discount policy?
For more than 15 years, Bio-Rad has made science education a major priority. To support this effort, the company has implemented a discount policy that allows high school and college teaching laboratories to purchase kits, instruments, reagents, and other equipment at preferred prices.

Bullet, consider yourself dodged. Official ratings numbers for Sunday night's Academy Awards broadcast aren't out yet, but early Nielsen data suggests it drew about 4% more viewers than last year's show, which translates to around 39 million. That's far from good by historical measures, but it's not nearly as bad as it probably deserved, if the near-universal raspberries from critics are anything to go on. It almost certainly won't edge out the 2008 show and its 31.8 million viewers for the dubious distinction of being the least-watched Oscars ever. (Update: The early projection was accurate. As Horizon Media's Brad Adgate notes, the official audience of 39.3 means that the Oscars drew fewer viewers than the Grammys for the first time since 1984.)
Make no mistake: The 2012 Oscars were a travesty. And while they might have benefited from comparison to the previous year's weird, disjointed show, they were bad in a way that those of us who suffered through them start to finish won't soon forget.
If the Oscars are to reverse their long-term ratings slide, Band-Aids aren't good enough anymore. This show needs radical change. Here's my blueprint.
1. Get a host who's funny now. What I mean by that is one who's currently in the funny stage of his or her career. Whatever your opinion of Billy Crystal, I think we can all agree his peak years are well behind him. For all the social media chatter last night lamenting what might've been if Eddie Murphy hadn't pulled out, he's not really an improvement in this regard.
Fortunately, Sunday's broadcast, while a failure in most regards, did at least suggest a few possibilities. Chris Rock is funny, high-energy and looks good in a tux. Sacha Baron Cohen deserves consideration for generating one of the event's genuinely memorable moments with his ambush of Ryan Seacrest (the other moment being Angelina Jolie's flash of leg, which quickly earned its own Twitter tribute account). An Oscars hosted by Baron Cohen as a rotating cast of his characters would be genuinely unpredictable enough to qualify as must-see TV.
On the other hand, it feels like time for the ladies to take a turn. Women always make up a majority of the Oscars audience, and last night they accounted for most of the best laughs. I'd love to see a Kristin Wiig/Tina Fey tandem. They'd certainly have no need of Bruce Vilanch's services. Or what about Ellen Degeneres? Her J.C. Penney commercials last night were better than most of the actual Oscars segments, and her 2007 stint as host was a ratings highlight, drawing 40 million viewers.
Two other candidates: Jimmy Fallon would be an all-around solid choice and ought to be on any short list. Finally, although this would never happen for many reasons, Joel McHale would be dynamite as a host. He's wickedly funny in a rat-a-tat way, he's a firehose of pop culture references, he looks the part and he can do the song-and-dance thing, as the musical episodes of "Community" have shown. Nobody's better at parodies and in-jokes than that show's writers. Hire them to write the jokes and McHale to deliver them and it would be the best Oscars in a dog's age, guaranteed.
2. Front-load the proceedings. This should be obvious, but the show needs to start off strong. The first 15 minutes sets the tone and creates the impression that lingers. After that, it's fine if things get a little draggy here and there.
That's why the first award handed out is traditionally Best Supporting Actress. More than anything else, viewers tune in to see actors and actresses, and they want to see one of them onstage getting a statue early. Yet for some reason the organizers ignored precedent this year and started off with cinematography and art direction. That's just dumb.
3. Less telling, more showing. You would think the folks at the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts & Sciences would be the last ones who'd need this reminder, but movies are a visual medium. Last night featured an awful lot of moments where someone stood at the podium and talked about a movie. That needs to be held to an absolute minimum.
Remember those little tributes they used to do for every Best Picture nominee? Each was like a two- or three-minute trailer. How many times have you heard someone headed to the cinema say "We can't be late — I don't want to miss the previews"? People love trailers. Bring the tributes back. Of course, that's been less feasible since the Best Picture category was expanded to accommodate up to 10 films. Ten 2-minute trailers adds a lot of running time to an already bloated broadcast. So…
4. Cut some categories. Sorry, documentarians, sound mixers and directors of animated shorts. Your work is valuable. You deserve all the awards you get. We just don't want to watch you get them. You're gone.
5. Make the Academy younger. I left this one for last because it's the most difficult. Maybe it's impossible. No one's going to vote to shorten his or her own term as an Academy voter. But as long as it's a lifetime gig, the median age of the electorate is going to be inconveniently high and "Oscar material" is going to remain synonymous with "nostalgia fest."
As Alessandra Stanley points out in the Times today, only one of the nine Best Picture nominated films was set in the present this year. That's just screwy. Much as I loved "The King's Speech," its historical setting is what gave it the edge over "Black Swan" and "The Social Network," equally if not more worthy films, in last year's voting.
Expanding the Best Picture category was meant to accommodate the usual costume dramas and biopics while making room for edgier and/or more commercial contenders. But that was an indirect solution and obviously hasn't done much to solve the problem. The direct solution is to make the Oscars all about the movies that matter now, and that's not going to happen as long as the Academy is controlled by people who vote based on how much a movie reminds them of the films they loved back when.

Floor Polisher Parts
If you have wooden floors then it is mandatory that you invest in a good floor polisher. Though the wooden floors give the rooms a warm and golden tone, taking care of them can be tricky if you're not very careful. Wooden floors can be easily scratched, excess moisture and chemicals can damage the wood. Here we look at how to use a floor polisher on a wooden floor.
How to use Floor Polisher on Wooden Floors
•Clean the floor with a soft brushed broom or a vacuum cleaner before using the floor polisher.
•Ensure that the pad of the floor polisher is clean and sparkling. Buff the floor with the pad from one corner to another until the entire room is covered.
•You can either use a floor wax or make a all natural floor polish at home. In a double boiler heat 2 cups of mineral oil and 1 tbsp beeswax. Once they are melted drizzle the mixture evenly over the floor.
•Slide a new pad into the floor polisher. Slowly move the floor polisher from the back of the room to the front in gentle motions. The slow and gentle motion of the floor polisher over the polish will bring a glow and sparkle to the floor.
If you are planning to invest in a good floor polisher look no further than GoVacuum.com. Here we deal with only the top most brands such as Bissell, Bosch, Carpet, Dyson and so on.

Goose Creek Post 166's weekend trip to Myrtle Beach for the Palmetto Invitational was impacted by rain but not before the club got in a pair of games.
Post 166, aiming to sharpen up for the postseason, split those two, defeating Conway 17-7 on Friday and losing to Tuscaloosa, Ala. 10-3 on Saturday.
Post 166 takes a 15-7 record (11-4 League 1) into the regular season finale on Saturday, July 6 at Beaufort before starting the playoffs with a best-of-5 series on Monday, July 8. If they win the first game against Beaufort, they'll meet Hilton Head for the league championship later Saturday.
It's the biggest day of the season for Post 166.
Goose Creek can finish anywhere from first to third in League 1. The first two seeds open the playoffs at home.
"If anything, I kind of want to low key it a little bit and keep them loose and relaxed," Post 166 coach Dave Holt said. "Hopefully, they'll be ramped up enough for it. If you get too ramped up in baseball, though, it's not always a good thing. We'll try to play our best game and see what happens."
The top seed from League I is up in the air between Post 166, Beaufort and Hilton Head. Each team has four losses in league play heading into the final week of the regular season.
"It could come down to a tiebreaker," Holt said.
Moncks Corner is locked in as the fourth seed from League 1 and will play the League 1 winner in the opening playoff series.
Post 166 has six players batting over .300 this summer, led by Cody Smith (.383). Chris Zurcher (.343), Austin Timm (.339), Tyler Rio (.329), Zack Wimmer (.306) and Cody Maw (.304) are also over. 300.
Wimmer leads in homers (5), runs (14) and RBIs (16). Smith has a team-high 10 doubles.
Zach Lavery has a .417 batting average but with only 12 plate appearances he's not qualified for the team batting title.
Post 166's victory in the Myrtle Beach tournament came by mercy rule in five innings.
Wimmer led the offensive assault with a pair of three-run home runs. Timm was among four other Post 166 hitters with at least two hits, including a two-run home run in the first inning.
Christian Sillanpaa, Smith and Zurcher had two hits apiece too. Both of Smith's were doubles.
Maw got the win in relief of Zurcher, tossing the third and fourth innings. Maw gave up two hits and two earned runs, striking out two and walking one.
Zurcher gave up five hits and three earned runs in his two innings. He fanned three batters and walked one.
Rio threw a scoreless fifth inning, giving up a hit and striking out one.
After Timm's two-run homer in the first inning, Sillanpaa had a two-run single in the second inning to make the score 4-0.
Wimmer's first three-run homer highlighted a 9-run third inning for Post 166. His other home run came in the top of the fifth inning.
The game on Saturday was against Alabama's defending state champion and one of the Southeast's better programs. Tuscaloosa Post 34 has won eight state titles since 2003.
Post 34 jumped out to a 5-0 lead against Post 166 starter Wimmer before Timm's three-run homer in the third inning provided the only offense for Post 166.
Tuscaloosa added single runs off Wimmer in the fourth and fifth innings to go up 7-3. Wimmer gave up six hits, struck out seven batters and walked three over five innings.
Tuscaloosa finished out the scoring off reliever Maw in the seventh inning, plating three runs, including two on a home run. Maw surrendered six hits and struck out two.
Post 166 had 10 hits against Post 34's Cody Mills. Mills struck out five batters and walked none over seven innings.
Smith had three hits and a double, while Wimmer had two hits and a double.

AUSTIN, Texas - Carl Horsley highlighted day one of the NCAA West Preliminary Round as the junior sprinted to a lifetime-best 10.23 to advance to the quarterfinals of the 100 meters Thursday at Mike A. Myers Stadium.
The Big West champion at 100 and 200 meters, Horsley ran in the sixth and final heat and clocked the second-fastest time of the heat (10.23) to finish second in the heat and eighth overall. The time for the junior from Oakland shatters his previous best by .23 seconds and breaks the CSUN record set by Joe Criner (10.30) in 1998. Horsley ran a previous lifetime-best 10.46 in winning the conference championship two weeks ago.
Horsley advances to the 100 meter quarterfinal round on Friday and will also run in the first round of the 200 meters later on Friday evening.
"The day was definitely highlighted by Carl's school record in the 100," said head coach Avery Anderson. "That was a great race, he executed the race plan I gave him perfectly. When you advance to the next round at a meet like this it just gets tougher and you have to do it again."
In the women's 100 meters, Le'Shel Vines and Hafsatu Kamara finished 30th and 31st respectively in the opening round. Vines ran 11.68 to place fifth in her heat while Kamara ran 11.69 to finish sixth in her heat. Lexis Lambert ran the 400 meters later on Thursday and finished seventh in her heat in a time of 55.42 which was 39th overall.
All three women have events remaining as both Kamara and Vines will run the 200 meters on Friday and all three are slated to be part of the Matadors' 4x100 relay on Saturday.
Nicholas DiMartino and Donovan Toban opened the championship for the Matadors Thursday in the long jump. DiMartino wound up 27th with a best of 23-11.75 (7.31) which came on his first attempt of the competition. Toban fouled on all three attempts and did not post a mark but still has the triple jump competition coming up on Saturday.
"The weather was weird early so it made it tough for the guys to get in the board," said Anderson. "Both jumped far enough to get into Nationals but scratched the jumps they needed to advance. Still they came out and competed hard but this is the best of the best and it's hard to advance for a reason."
On Friday, Monique Griffiths (discus), Tiana Webberley (pole vault) and Tucker Weathers (shot put) will be in action as will Horsley, Kamara and Vines.
Hosted by the University of Texas at Austin
MEN'S LONG JUMP - PRELIMS - 1. Jarrion Lawson, Arkansas (26-0.25, 7.93) ... 27. Nicholas DiMartino (23-11.75, 7.31) ... Donovan Toban (Foul)

Terry Lynn Conley was arrested June 6 and charged with possession of methamphetamine with the intent to distribute. She was in court June 13 seeking bond.
Assistant District Attorney Gregory Bushway told the court that he opposed the motion based on Conley's criminal history. The prosecutor asked the officer who arrested her to testify at the bond hearing.
Sheriff's Investigator Robert Reece said he received information that Conley was coming into Jones County with methamphetamine. He said he was given a description of the defendant and the address of her destination.

Family ties: Curry's summer routine paying off for Duke
He'll play in the arena where his father regularly works against the team that his older brother elevated to a basket shy of the Final Four.
Yet Seth Curry clearly is filling his own spotlight in a Duke uniform.
Heading into Charlotte's Time Warner Cable Arena with the No. 1 Blue Devils to play Davidson tonight (7 p.m., ESPN2), Curry is the reigning ACC player of the week who now is one of Duke's captains.
Like his father, Dell, the Charlotte Bobcats television analyst who played 17 NBA seasons, and brother, Stephen, now with the NBA's Golden State Warriors, Seth Curry is adept at perimeter shooting.
Now a fifth-year senior with Duke, he has grown into a more complete player who is one of the ACC's best.
That was the plan this past summer when Seth lived with Stephen Curry at his suburban Charlotte home so they could work out together. Seth Curry admitted getting worn down late last season, so strength and conditioning became a major focus of their joint workouts.
"The workout we were doing was high intensity non-stop action," said Stephen Curry, a Davidson All-American guard before the Warriors made him a first-round pick. "Trying to work out without stopping. That helps on condition and mental toughness. With the minutes he was going to have to play, he needed that."
Seth Curry, the ACC's third-best scorer at 17.1 points per game this season, said his summer work with his NBA brother was a big help.
"Just being able to push each other is a great benefit," Seth said. "We talk basketball all the time. It's great to be able to learn from that."
With Stephen Curry recovering from an ankle injury over the summer, the brothers weren't able to play any 1-on-1.
"I was disappointed," Seth Curry said, admitting that beating his older brother isn't something that happens regularly.
Still, Seth Curry is playing his best stretch of basketball as a collegian this season. He scored 31 points in Saturday's 90-77 win over Santa Clara to establish his Duke career best.
Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski called his play "spectacular."
Seth Curry's improved strength is allowing him to score in more ways. In addition to his prolific 3-point shooting, Curry regularly is getting points in the lane.
"Scoring in the paint has made me a lot better," Seth Curry said. "I can shoot the ball. If you can do that, it makes you hard to guard because you can add another element. I think I'm handling the ball better off the dribble."
Curry has made 50 percent of his shots overall, including 41.9 percent of his 3-point attempts.
Stephen Curry watches as many Duke games as he can either on television or online. Tonight, when the Warriors are prepping for their 10:30 p.m. game with the Los Angeles Clippers, Stephen Curry will steal some looks at his brother's game against his alma mater on his iPad.
He enjoys watching his little brother, who started his career at Liberty before transferring in 2009, make Duke one of the teams in the running for a national championship this season.
"Now it's his shot," Stephen Curry said. "He's a threat being able to shoot it like he can."
Still, things aren't easy for Seth. He's dealing with a lower leg condition that popped up in the offseason and got worse when practice began. He and Duke's training staff are managing it to allow him to play all season.
"Coach (Krzyzewski) has done a good job of allowing me to rest and letting the guys understand my situation," Seth Curry said. "The guys on the team could see me not practicing 90 percent of the time and be upset about it. Coach has done a good job of handling it. I'm figuring out a routine to let me be at my best in games."
Curry said he probably will shut things down for a couple of months once the season ends. But for now, the situation is going well.
"It's actually gotten a little bit better," Curry said. "We figured it would be worse throughout the season or at best stay the same. But (with) doing some of the treatment things, it's actually gotten better."
With ACC play approaching this weekend, Krzyzewski decided it was time to elevate Curry's status in the Blue Devils' locker room.
On Tuesday, Krzyzewski announced that Curry was named one of the team's captains. He joins seniors Mason Plumlee and Ryan Kelly, who were named captains in the preseason.
"Our three seniors have really been the leaders of our team," Krzyzewski said. "From the spring, Ryan and Mason were named co-captains, but Seth has been one of the leaders since then.
"It seems only natural that all three of them should be tri-captains. It is an honor, and we are really happy to make it official."
Seth Curry appreciates the validation.
"It's a great honor," he said. "I've been trying to lead all year and do my part to help the captains. It's great to have a label next to my name as a captain and join with the seniors."
The captaincy and his status with the top-ranked Blue Devils are examples of how the already confident Seth Curry has elevated his competitive nature.
"Being who I am with my family, I kind of have a target on my back no matter where I'm at," Seth Curry said. "Coming here, it's magnified even more. That Duke name puts a target on your back more.
"Having that competitive mentality to not have a bad day no matter who we are playing is the biggest thing I've learned."

LOS ANGELES — Scientists said they have fresh evidence that all the gold on Earth was forged from ancient collisions of dead stars.
Telescopes recently detected a strange glow in a distant galaxy. Researchers said the glow came from the collision of dead stars.
Astronomers have long known that lighter elements such as carbon and oxygen are created within a star. But that can't produce heavier elements like gold.
It was thought that gold was created in a supernova explosion. But the new research points to a different stellar process involving the collisions of dead or neutron stars that occurred long before the solar system existed.
The new work was led by Harvard-affiliated researchers and will appear in a future issue of the Astrophysical Journal Letters.
