The King James Bible is "Inerrant?"
On the King James Bible Versus Other Translations Controversy
By Gary Amirault
At an early point in my walk with Jesus, I was strongly under the influence of men and women who believed in the "Inerrant Bible" doctrine. They believed the King James Bible was the only one Christians should use because it was inspired of God and without errors. They believed other translations were inspired of Satan, the "Alexandrian cult," and the Roman Catholic Church. But eventually, I was freed from their influence and decided to do some extensive research into Bible translations myself. I discovered that the people who were perpetuating the King James "Inerrant Bible" myth were actually promoting perhaps the most corrupt, inaccurate and error-filled translation of all of them! Furthermore, it has had more revisions by far than any other translation. If it's "Inerrant" to begin with, why all the modifications and revisions? The answer if obvious – the King James Bible is FAR from inerrant.
The very first year the "Authorized" Version (KJV) was printed, it went through several quick changes due to errors. A careful review KJV Bibles with the date 1611 on them revealed they were not all identical. One 1611 printing contained "and he went into the city" in Ruth 3:15 while another 1611 had "and she went into the city." Another 1611 printing had "Judas" for "Jesus" in Mat. 26:36. It came to be known as the "Judas Bible." Many other such errors occurred throughout the printing of the King James Version over the centuries. Below is a list of some of the more humorous blunders contained in KJV printings.
(1) 1611, Great "He" Bible, (Ruth 3:15, "and he went into the city.")
(2) 1611, Great "She" Bible, (Ruth 3:15), "and she went into the city.")
(3) 1611, "Judas" Bible, (Mat. 26:36, "Judas" for "Jesus.")
(4) 1631, "Wicked" Bible, (Ex. 20:14, omits the "not.")
(5) 1638, "Forgotten Sins" Bible, (Luke 7:47).
(6) 1641, "More Sea" Bible, (Rev. 21:1, "There was more sea.")
(7) 1653, "Unrighteous" or Field's Bible, (1 Cor. 6:9, "unrighteous shall inherit.")
(8) 1702, "Printers" Bible, (Ps. 119:161, "Printers have persecuted.")
(9) 1711, "Profit" Bible, (Isa. 57:12, "shall profit" instead of "shall not profit.")
(10) 1716, "Sin On" Bible, (John 5:14, "sin on more" for "sin no more.")
(11) 1717, "Vinegar" Bible, (Luke 20, "parable of the Vinegar" instead of "Vineyard."
(12) 1746, "Sting" Bible, (Mark 7:37, "sting of his tongue" not "string."
(13) 1792, "Denial" Bible, (Lk. 22:34, Philip denies Jesus instead of Peter.
(14) 1801, "Murderers" Bible, (Jude 1:16, "murderers" used instead of "murmurers."
(15) 1802, "Discharge" Bible, (1 Tim. 5:21, "I discharge" instead of "I charge."
(16) 1804, "Lions" Bible, (1 Kings 7:19, "out of thy lions" instead of "loins."
(17) 1805, "To-Remain" Bible, (Gal. 4:29, "to remain" inserted instead of a comma.
(18) 1806, "Standing Fishes" Bible, (Ezek. 47:10, "the fishes shall stand" instead of "fishers."
(19) 1807, "Ears to ear" Bible, (Mat. 13:43, "ears to ear" instead of "to hear."
(20) 1810, "Wife-Hater" Bible, (Lk. 14:26, "hate not . . . and his own wife" instead of "life.")
(21) 1823, "Camels" Bible, (Gen. 24:61, "Rebekah arose, and her camels" instead of "damsels."
(22) 1829, "Large Family" Bible, (Isa. 66:9, "not cease to bring to birth" instead of "not cause to bring forth."
(23) undated, "Fool" Bible, Psalm 14:1, "The fool hath said in his heart there is a God" instead of "there is no God."
Many people do not realize how many times the King James Bible has been changed in some form or another. There have been changes made in the KJV in the following years: 1613, 1616, 1617, 1618, 1629, 1630, 1633, 1634, 1637, 1638, 1640, 1642, 1653, 1659, 1675, 1679, 1833, 1896, 1904.
All of the above changes retained the original name. However, in recent times, in additions to changes being made in the text, even the very name of the Bible has changed. Few people realize that all these Bible Versions listed below are nothing more than revisions of the original 1611 King James Version
Revised Version
American Version
Revised Standard Version
American Standard Version
New Revised Standard Version
New American Standard Version
King James Version II (KJII) (renamed to Literal Translation of the Holy Bible)
King James for the 21st Century (KJ21)
King James 2000 (KJ2000)
The Literal Translation of the Holy Bible (LITV) (formerly named King James II)
Modern King James Version (MKJV)
New King James Version (NKJV)
Revised Authorised Version (RAV) (British edition of the NKJV)
Revised King James New Testament (RKJV)
The Third Millennium Bible (TMB)
Updated King James Version (UKJV)
There have even been "updates" (more revisions) of some of the revised versions of the King James Version, the New American Standard Version being an example.
So then the most "Inerrant" English Bible translation, according to the KJV-only fundamentalists, is actually the most changed and revised version on the market. How ironic! It would actually be hilarious were it not for the fact that we are dealing with the most important book in the world.
The tragic side of all these changes, revisions and updates of the Version that has held sway over most of the English-speaking world for several centuries is that the most corrupt part of this Bible translation, the very heart of it, has been left relatively unchanged. The foundational Greek text used to translate the New Testament portion of the KJV was NOT the best Greek text. Using an English form that appealed to the highly educated rather than the common people was NOT in accordance with the forms of the original languages of the scriptures.
The Greek of the New Testament, for example, was Koine Greek (common street Greek), NOT Classical Greek. For some time, when Bible scholars were reading the Greek New Testament, they thought they were reading a divine Greek because it was different from the Classical Greek. But as they uncovered more ancient Greek writings coming from the common people, they realized the Greek text of the Christian Scriptures, was not some Holy special Greek at all, it was everyday conversational Greek of the common people. That's what God used 2,000 years ago and that's what a modern English translation should sound like – like average people speaking as they normally would. The King James Bible didn't serve that purpose in 1611 and it does not serve that purpose today. It was archaic and too formal in 1611 and it is even more archaic and formal today. Scores of words in that version have dropped from use or have changed in meaning so drastically that sometimes the verse has taken on the opposite meaning since 1611. The word "let" for example today has the meaning of "to allow." But in 1611, it often had the meaning "to prevent or restrain." For example, 2 Thess. 2:7: "For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way." In this verse, the text actually means he is restraining, not actually allowing as one would read in modern English.

Head along the Forth and Clyde for some canal fishing. Species
include roach, bream, rudd, gudgeon, carp and particularly tench.
Perch, pike, trout and eels are also present.
Get started with a spot of canal fishing. Roach and perch are
the most common species throughout the canal, and can easily be
caught using maggots, pinkies, worms or bread as hookbait. Great
beginners' fishing experience.
The canal is especially noted for its tench. Carp
approaching a colossal 20lb in weight have been recorded, and
Firhill Basin in Glasgow is the noted hotspot for this species. The
current Scottish Carp record of 34lb 12oz was captured on the Forth
& Clyde Canal in May 2010. Pike are present on most sections of
the waterway.
Only fish from the towpath side of the canal. Stay at least 25
metres from any lock or swing bridge. 2 rods max or 3 for pike
fishing. Tackle shops and angling clubs can all offer good local
advice and help you get the best out of your fishing. Remember that
all fish caught must be returned alive.
In order to go fishing on the Forth & Clyde Canal,
membership with the Scottish Federation for Coarse Angling is
Try the stretch from Bonnybridge to Kirkintilloch.
Did you know that Canal Season Tickets are free with the SFCA's Annual Individual Membership? At only £5 for an adult annual membership you can also help support and protect the future of coarse angling in Scotland.
Fishing tip Use a small hook such as a size 20
and a fine line of 2lbs breaking strain.

Guest blog post by Jerry Dyer, Senior Program Manager at Microsoft - a man very passionate about private cloud and the Microsoft Operations Framework (MOF). Thanks, Jerry!
If you've ever felt frustrated because Microsoft seems to think technology alone solves every problem, this might come as a pleasant surprise.
Microsoft, in addition to its very effective technical solution for the private cloud, is offering help that focuses on the people and process side of the cloud.
That surprise comes in the form of a guide released in July titled Managing and Operating a Microsoft® Private Cloud: How to Apply the Microsoft Operations Framework (MOF). Written by long-time MOF program manager Jerry Dyer, the guide describes how to manage and operate a Microsoft Private Cloud using IT service management processes.
Aimed at the IT service management community, IT architects, and IT managers, the guide applies MOF's IT service management principles directly to Microsoft's Private Cloud conceptual architecture and technology stack.
Here's how it works, briefly.
Microsoft's private cloud solutions are built on Windows Server® 2008 R2 Hyper-V® and Microsoft System Center. The foundation is built on the Windows Server platform with the Windows Server Active Directory® identity framework, Hyper-V virtualization, and deep application insight through System Center, which allows datacenter administrators to deploy a flexible and responsive infrastructure designed to simplify day-to-day tasks and enable management of applications at the service level, rather than the level of individual servers.
The guide describes the technical solution, which is organized around the following conceptual architecture:
Those five layers are underpinned by virtualization, which provides abstraction of computer resources for storage, network, and server.
The guide also describes the people and process side, which is offered by MOF, an IT service management framework that demonstrates how to translate service management principles into everyday IT tasks and activities, with a strong focus on aligning IT with business needs. MOF defines the core processes, activities, and accountabilities required to plan, deliver, operate, and manage services throughout their lifecycles. It organizes those activities and processes into service management functions (SMFs), which describe the major activities that occur within each phase of the IT lifecycle that MOF is built around.
The guide maps MOF's IT service management best practices to those five conceptual layers and their technical components, explaining how to think about managing and operating the layers and components in an integrated fashion.
For example, the guide describes how to apply the tasks ion one of the SMFs in MOF's Manage Layer—Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC)—to ensure the Self-Service Layer is in compliance with and supports organizational goals and policies when it performs its role of allowing Hyper-V cloud tenants or authorized users to request, manage, and access services.
Another example: The guide describes how the Service Alignment Management Review—one of two management reviews in the MOF Manage Layer—helps measure the quality and effectiveness of the Self-Service Layer interface, both from a process point of view as well as by looking at the performance of the Service Manager Service Catalog and Portal.
Oh, by the way. The guide is a free download, as are all of MOF's intellectual property assets. If you're interested in the guide, you can download it from the Microsoft Download site. Just look for the download labeled MOF and the Private Cloud.zip. Feel free to download anything else you see there that you might be interested in.
If you're interested in learning more about MOF, try the MOF home page. Or, you can contact Jerry Dyer at email@example.com.
If you'd like more technical resources, training or information on the Private Cloud for yourself or your team, please visit the Microsoft Virtual Academy.

Springfield, MA (SportsNetwork.com) - Sean Armand tallied 21 points and five assists, as the Iona Gaels held off the Canisius Golden Griffins, 75-72, in the semifinal round of the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference Tournament at the MassMutual Center.
Armand shot 8-of-11 from the field, including 4-of-6 from 3-point range for top-seeded Iona (22-9), which will play Manhattan in Monday night's championship game. Isaiah Williams and Tre Bowman poured in 16 points apiece, while A.J. English added 12 points.
For fourth-seeded Canisius (21-12), Billy Baron led all scorers with 23 points, Chris Manhertz logged 15 points and 13 rebounds, while Zach Lewis and Chris Perez poured in 13 and 12 points, respectively.
Iona held a 48-41 lead heading into the halftime locker room after shooting a lofty 61.3 percent from the field in the opening 20 minutes, including 8-of-17 from beyond the arc. Canisius couldn't keep pace at 48.4 percent.
The Gaels held a 10-point lead with just over four minutes to play before the Griffs used a 10-0 run to tie the game at 70 with 1:28 left on a pair of Baron free throws. Iona responded on its next possession when David Laury grabbed an offensive rebounds and put back the layup to give the Gaels the lead for good.
Iona outscored Canisius from 3-point range, 30-21.

Excellent food and great service. The staff bends over backwards to making your visit a pleasurable experience. We had mushroom barley soup like mother used to make, corned beef, brisket, pastrami - loads of calories but well worth it.

Couldn't wait til it opened in my neighborhood. what a disappointment! food ordinary and they rushed us out of there so fast, I didn't even get to finish my sandwich. never again!
Posted by foodie on 02/01/2012
Had half a sandwich and soup for lunch...the sandwich was a combo. add an iced tea (no refills) Cost me over $34 with tip. Ridiculous. I had the same sandwich...a wholeE one, a bigger bowl of soup and dessert and drink in Florida for $10.89. Now I know the real estate is more, but this is waaaay out of line.
Posted by Unhappy customer on 01/21/2012
Apparently they don't use their own delivery service. I ordered matzah ball soup and they gave me chicken broth. When I called to tell them they said credit account and hung up. Called back and just got yes'd to death. 1:20 min later no soup and called back they rattled off some number and told me they were at a secret location and couldn't help. Second ave deli should be ashamed. PLUS they have no other number or another way to get my order correct. Don't waste your money on this place. The corn beef sandwich sucked too.

I find the prices reasonable and the quality consistently good throughout. Not sure how anyone can think that this place is not one of the top kosher delis in the city.
Posted by Cenarules on 12/02/2011
I have been here a couple of times and both times had very good meals. I haven't deviated from the basics, soup, sandwich, fries but it is a very good, classic deli. Is it the same as the original? No, but they did a good job with it. The service has been friendly, the waits are short. If you are in the mood for deli, give it a shot. As for the price, a big bowl of soup and half a sandwich plus pickles and coleslaw for $15 is very fair. The half sandwich is double the size of most regular sandwiches. This isn't boar's head deli.
Posted by anonymous on 10/11/2011
They must have neogitated really bad terms on that abandoned bar on 75th street guessing by the prices they are charging. Just not even close to worth it. Also, min delivery charge is $15, although that should not be a problem as that is what 1/2lb of turkey is. Throw in $3 for a can of soda and there you go.

"You all heard about the whole big MSNBC thing?" Rosie O'Donnell said in a video on her blog this afternoon. "We were in the bottom of the ninth inning. We were almost there, the game was almost over!" But after she let slip to a blogger in Miami that she was in negotiations with the network to host a one-hour show, the network "panicked" and reneged, she wrote on her blog last night:
2day there is no deal
my career as a pundit is over
b4 it began
According to the Times, however, it wasn't panic that caused MSNBC to cop out, but the fact that Rosie would only commit to a one-year contract — as she had done previously on the View. "It's all right," Rosie sighed on her Webcam. "Maybe being a pundit wasn't what's best for me. You gotta believe, what happens is supposed to happen." We bet Dan Abrams, who's time slot she would have taken, believes that, too!

Softball coach of the year: Brian Sandera
: June 16, 2012
Photo By Express-News
2012 All-Area softball: Brian Sandera, Holmes High School, coach of the year
School: Holmes
Age: 36
Career record: 37-20
Head coaching experience: Holmes (2010-present)
Looking back on 2012
The perennial underdogs turned into the story of the season as the Huskies, who hadn't made the playoffs since 2008, advanced to the Region IV-5A final.
Their rise wasn't a surprise to their second-year coach. Holmes returned the core of the 2011 team that barely missed the playoffs, including Super Team catcher Hailey Rebar and All-Area pitcher Alessia Gallegos.
Resiliency was the Huskies' theme. They rebounded from a 1-6 start to finish 21-11 and take second place in the tough District 27-5A. They lost their first playoff game to Corpus Christi Carroll before rallying to win the series, along with the next three rounds. Holmes finally fell to Northside rival O'Connor in front of a capacity crowd in the regional final.
Also considered for the E-N honor: Smithson Valley's Lisa Daigle, O'Connor's Anne Lewis and Seguin's John Garcia

Love the design of the space. especially the view from upstairs. This place is called Zengo not La Biblioteca - I was confused by the address on the website and google. Other than that the food was good!
Posted by quant2011 on 10/13/2011
Went here for happy hour the other day. The happy hour specials are very good. The food and drink specials were very reasonable during happy hour. We got three orders of the tacos and tried each kind. Each type was very tasty. We also tried the two types of topped flatbreads they had and the tuna was absolutely phenomenal. The tuna was raw and extremely fresh. I ended up having their version of a Horchata and it was fantastic. One of the tastiest drinks I've ever had. Their beer selection also contained some gems I've never had before. Though this is a tequila bar in its own right (tequila and I do not get along) there are many other choices that are equally delicious. Finally, the decor and ambience were great. The atmosphere could probably get louder on a weekend but it was perfect for after work drinks during the week. Definitely come here as this is a hidden gem of midtown! One side comment... the name of this place is library in Spanish... where are the books?

Don't Panic, Canucks Fans. There Are Still Plenty of Reasons to Panic. Welcome to the stretch drive, the unpredictable and unstable back half of the NHL regular season.

Canucks 7 – 1 Stars Friends, Romans, countrymen, I ask you, humbly, what is the cure for an offensive slump? Don't answer; this is a rhetorical question.

Canucks 3 – Flames 4 (SO) It's a bummer that, for the second time in as many games, the Canucks had to fall in a shootout.

Map of Oculus Rift Dev Kit Users Willing to Demo their Units
The first Oculus Rift dev kits are about to start shipping any time now and hopefully will be in the hands of many of the Kickstarter project backers by the end of this month (to check the status of yours) some users have started creating an open map in Google to feature the locations where each of them may demo his unit to others in that area that are interested in the product and have not decided to get one or not yet. I'm one of the early backers and am waiting my kit and as soon as it arrives it will also be available for demonstrations to anyone interested who either lives in Bulgaria or happens to pass by Sofia and wants to try the device out, so the 3D Vision Blog's dev kit is also on that map for demo locations. If you are expecting a dev kit soon as well and are open to demonstrating it to others you are welcome to share your location and info on that map as well. The initial run of produced development kits of the Rift is quite small, so if everyone who gets one helps in demonstrating his unit to just a few other interested persons it can help a lot. After all the people at Oculus cannot demo the device to so many interested people all by themselves, so let us help them with this.
- To see the map and check out the places where you would be able to try out the Riftâ?¦

We are working toward expanding our current small group offerings and establishing a new broad based list of offerings. To do so, a Small Group M-Team was formed to determine our congregation's level of interest and support. They have developed a smorgasbord of groups to appeal to a wide variety of interests and needs.
Group members provide at each gathering…
† A welcoming atmosphere
† A commitment of time and support
† Participation and confidentiality
† Prayer and/or devotional
† Renewal for self, others, and the church
In the following pages you will find a listing of the groups that may form based on number of interested participants and leaders who step forward to coordinate them. Groups will be led by volunteers or teams. The Small Group M-Team will provide guidance, resources and support.
Read through the listing of groups to be offered. If you'd like to be join any of these groups, just e-mail email@example.com, indicating which group interested in.
There are a number of new groups that will be formed very soon. On the pages below is a list of potential groups that may organize, if there's enough interest and someone steps forward to be the facilitator.

This harmonic, or whatever it is, is pretty clever. I see that I fall neatly into it, being a hardcore nature lover, diehard list-obsessed (some might say), and of course, a birder. Only lack of money keeps me from owning the high end optics, alas.
Cheers…and may you see a great many new birds this year!

What others should know:I bought these pellets because it stated their head size was 5.52. The can I have are all 5.50 or less. The problem is the velocity with these pellets is 814fps adv. from a Trail NP XL. Yes looks good but not when you consider the H&N hunter ext. 19gr pellet goes at that same speed. I tested these in a Hatsan 125 and found the same problem, velocity loss. While I have 3 other brands of 14.3gr pellets they all fall in the 900fps bracket. 14gr pellets should not shoot slower that 18 or 19gr. I suspect it is related to the head size being to small and letting air pass by. Maybe I got a bad batch but I saw the same issue with some 15.89gr ones also, heads ranging from 5.47 to 5.49.

Reader Patrick Sullivan wrote us and posed the following question (we'll paraphrase):
Now that the World Cup is over, what does a newbie soccer fan do and how can I find some ways to root for a team that are "fun" and "hip?"
Here you go Patrick and others: a schematic for those new to the game or those fresh off the World Cup excitement who want to ratchet up the excitement level after South Africa:
1. Pick an EPL team to follow. Buy a jersey. Go to a bar.
ESPN is locked into EPL soccer for another year, at worst, on the dial on your televsion. The Premiership boasts some of the top talent in the world and its teams boast some of the best history. Just last week, TSG had a feature on Blackpool who are newly promoted the Barclays.
Pick a team to follow and purchase a jersey to cement your loyalty.
First, though, do your research. Find a team that best evokes the spirit, flair or style of soccer that you like. Learn some of the history, star players, how the club grew to the stature of where they are now. Or think about the town the club is from, maybe it's similar to your town.
Then buy your jersey, but be careful there too. More so than in American football, global football stars get sold all the time. Find out about how the player arrived at the club, see how long their contract goes for. If your team–gasp–gets relegated to a lower division will they have to sell the player whose name is on the back of your jersey.
Wait…I forgot to check…does my team have a chance to get relegated? (Ask those wearing Jozy Altidore Hull City jerseys to the gym these days.)
Is the player often injured–and why does this matter?

The White House spins today's grim August jobs report (which John Steele Gordon details below), calling it "further evidence that the U.S. economy is continuing to recover from the worst downturn since the Great Depression":
While there is more work that remains to be done, today's employment report provides further evidence that the U.S. economy is continuing to recover from the worst downturn since the Great Depression. It is critical that we continue the policies that are building an economy that works for the middle class as we dig our way out of the deep hole that was caused by the severe recession that began in December 2007. To create more jobs in particularly hard-hit sectors, President Obama continues to support the elements of the American Jobs Act that have not yet passed, including further investment in infrastructure to rebuild our Nation's ports, roads and highways, and assistance to State and local governments to prevent layoffs and to enable them to rehire hundreds of thousands of teachers and first responders. To build on the progress of the last few years, President Obama has also proposed an extension of middle class tax cuts that would prevent the typical middle class family from facing a $2,200 tax increase next year.
At the AEI blog, James Pethokoukis cites a far less optimistic take from Citigroup:
The unemployment rate dropped to 8.1% from 8.3%, but in this case with declines in both the labor force (-368,000) and the household-survey measure of employment (-119,000). With labor force participation falling back to a new cycle low of 63.5%, the drop in the unemployment rate should not be reported as good news.
Pethokoukis adds:
This was not the employment report either American workers or the Obama campaign were hoping for. A huge miss. It shows the U.S. labor market remains in a deep depression, generating few jobs and little if no income growth.
No amount of spin from the White House or Obama campaign can put a happy face on these numbers. While the unemployment rate dipped from 8.3 percent in July to 8.1 percent, Pethokoukis notes that the unemployment rate would actually be 8.4 percent if workforce participation had remained steady from July. The fact that many unemployed Americans have given up looking for jobs over the past month is obviously a distressing sign, even though it may have made the unemployment rate look modestly better on the surface.
Meanwhile, the Romney campaign jumped on the numbers this morning to contrast them with the positive recovery rhetoric from the Democratic National Convention: "If last night was the party, this morning is the hangover."

By Donna MilesAmerican Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON, July 10, 2006 Defense officials are attributing the 13th consecutive month in which every military service met or exceeded its active-duty recruiting goal to more than just good luck.
Bryan Whitman, deputy assistant secretary of defense for public affairs, cited the high priority every service has placed on recruiting, including the resources to back up that commitment, with successes measured both in numbers and quality of recruits.
Active-duty recruiting numbers, both for June and for the first nine months of fiscal 2006, continued to exceed 100 percent of goal across the board, Whitman told reporters today.
At the same time, the services are maintaining their high quality standards, as measured by percentage of recruits with high school diplomas and scores on the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery test, Whitman said. He noted that more than 90 percent of all recruits have high school diplomas and nearly two-thirds have scored in the top 50 percent of ASVAB categories.
Both measures correlate closely with a recruit's success in the armed forces. Whitman called the possession of a high school diploma "the best single indicator of how well somebody will stick to and adjust to the military."
He emphasized that the department has not lowered recruiting standards, despite "myths" that have surfaced in the media. "The quality standards for the military are very high," he said, noting that fewer than 4 percent of all recruits score in Category 4 on the ASVAB, the lowest score the military accepts, Whitman said.
Meanwhile, Whitman said the emphasis the services put on recruiting -- backed up by more recruiters, and better tools and incentives to help them -- is paying off.
During June, the Army recruited more than 8,700 soldiers, 102 percent of its goal, and the Marine Corps signed on more than 4,300 Marines, 105 percent of its goal. The Navy met its goal of recruiting more than 3,900 sailors, and the Air Force exceeded its goal by 1 percent, bringing in more than 2,500 airmen.
Recruiting numbers in the reserve components were also up in June, with all components but the Navy Reserve meeting or exceeding their goals, defense officials said.
The Army National Guard recruited more than 5,800 soldiers, 101 percent of its goal, and the Army Reserve exceeded its goal by 21 percent, recruiting more than 5,600 members. The Marine Corps Reserve recruited more than 1,300 Marines, 103 percent of its goal; the Air National Guard, almost 900 members, 119 percent of its goal; and the Air Force Reserve, more than 600 airmen, 100 percent of its goal.
The Navy Reserve fell 5 percent short of its June goal, recruiting just fewer than 1,000 sailors.
Year-to-date statistics show positive recruiting trends throughout the force, with every service meeting or exceeding its goal to date and four of the six reserve components meeting their goals, officials noted.
As of June 30, the Army had exceeded its year-to-date active-duty recruiting goal by 4 percent, and the Marine Corps and Air Force by 1 percent. The Navy met its year-to-date goal.
In the reserve components, the Army National Guard exceeded its year-to-date recruiting goal by 3 percent, the Army Reserve and Marine Corps Reserve by 1 percent, and the Air Force Reserve by 4 percent.
As of June 30, the Air National Guard had met 92 percent of its year-to-date goal, and the Navy Reserve 83 percent.

Beauty queens vie for Miss America title in Las Vegas
LAS VEGAS (AP) — Beauties from every state are competing for the Miss America crown Saturday night, an honor that carries with it a $50,000 scholarship and a yearlong run as an advocate and role model.
The winner will go on tour, speaking to groups around the country and raising money for the Children's Miracle Network, the organization's official charity.
The competition at the Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino on the Las Vegas Strip is the culmination of a week of preliminary competitions and months of preparations for the titleholders from all 50 states plus the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. Each one has already proven her poise, charm and volubility by winning her state crown.
The queens have been staying at Planet Hollywood, but the humming slot machines and flashing marquees have been little more than a blurry backdrop for a tight schedule of rehearsals, media events and one-on-one interviews with the judges.
Among the preliminary winners were Miss Maryland and Miss Oklahoma. Miss Alabama won the $6,000 Quality of Life Scholarship for her commitment to community service.
West Virginia is represented by Kaitlin Gates, a graduate of Bridgeport High School and a student at West Virginia University.

Fears as injuries unit has opening hours cut
Posted: June 19, 2012|
The last round-the-clock minor injury unit to serve a large part of South Devon has had its hours slashed in a "worrying" decision which "could cost lives".
The facility in Totnes has abolished 24-hour care in favour of a service between 8am and 9pm.
The changes, which came into effect this week, follow a six-month review by the Torbay and Southern Devon Health and Care NHS Trust. All nine other minor injury units it manages are already closed overnight. Totnes town councillor Carol Wellwood has used the service twice in the last few years, when her husband had heart attacks, including once at night. She said Torbay Hospital could be difficult to access, particularly if foul weather or accidents cause problems on the roads.
"We have a lot of elderly residents in Totnes, and I'm concerned that lives may be lost or more damage done by something like a stroke or a heart attack if patients are not getting the hep they need as early as possible."
Mrs Wellwood's husband was referred on to Torbay Hospital, but the councillor said staff were "wonderful", and gave crucial first aid.
But the trust says patient use at night is low, with nobody at all treated at the unit between 9pm and 8am between last November and December. The four people who attended were immediately sent to Torbay for more specialist urgent treatment.
The trust is concerned that the lack of patients means overnight staff are unable to maintain the required skills which are essential to providing good, safe care. It also fears that people who are seriously injured are only delaying the care they need by visiting the MIU first.
Jane Viner, the trust's director of professional practice, said the overnight closure would mean staff could be deployed to busier centres where they would receive training and experience. "Ensuring that people receive the most appropriate treatment and care is our priority and this temporary change will help to make sure that patients in Totnes get the care they need, when they need it, from qualified, experienced clinicians," she said.
"Local patients can continue to access other hospital services as before, and the MIU will operate a full service during these revised opening hours. Those requiring care overnight can also access treatment or support via the out-of-hours doctor service Devon Doctors, via NHS Direct, or at Torbay Hospital's accident and emergency department."
John Lowes, medical director at Torbay Hospital, said: "We have been serving the Totnes community for many decades and this change to the opening hours of the local MIU will make no change to the ability of our hospital to provide those people with safe, good-quality care."
The six-month review is ongoing, with a view to implementing changes by December 17.

Nobel Laureate and Irish poet Seamus Heaney, whose work affected and influence generations, has died at age 74. From the Irish Independent:
Seamus Heaney, who has died in hospital in Dublin at the age of 74 after a short illness, was probably the best-known poet in the world. He is irreplaceable, and for his many friends and admirers there will be a tremendous sense of private as well as public bereavement.
Heaney, born in County Londonderry, Northern Ireland, is considered the greatest Irish poet since Yeats. He also was someone I knew as brother-in-law of one of my oldest friends, so the loss hits on a personal level. He and his wife, Marie herself the author of several books including Over Nine Waves, A Book of Irish Legends, lived in Sandymount, Co. Dublin, in a house with gardens overflowing with plants and flowers, including the hard-to-grow California native, the Matilija poppy. Stunning to see its white petals and yellow center against the low Irish clouds.
Heaney's death has made the world a smaller place: He was a warm, kind and strong intellectual presence; vibrant, funny, charismatic. His poetry readings drew voracious crowds, so entranced that they were dubbed Heaneyboppers by the media. Heaney began to write poetry while a student at Queen's University in Belfast, and began to publish his work in 1962. He married Marie Devlin in 1965, the year his first book of poetry, Eleven, was published. A year later he was appointed lecturer at Queen's College, Belfast and his second book of poems Death of Naturalist, was published. The book, which included the poem "Mid-Term Break," won the Eric Gregory Award for Young Writers and the Geoffrey Faber Prize. "Mid-Term Break" (and the later "The Blackbird of Glanmore" from District and Circle) focus on the death of his younger brother Christopher, who struck by car at age 4 while Heaney was in boarding school.
As he continued to write and publish poetry, Heaney became a guest lecturer at University of California, Berkekey before returning to Ireland, where he began to teach at Carysfort College in Dublin (he would go on to become the Head of English there before leaving to lecture at Harvard in 1981) and to give public readings of his work.
Heaney's Selected Poems 1965-1975 and Preoccupations: Selected Prose 1968–1978 were published in 1980. When Aosdána, the national Irish Arts Council, was established in 1981, Heaney was among those elected into its first group, and later elected a Saoi, one of its five elders and the IAC's highest honour, in 1997 . Heaney felt it important to acknowledge and assert that he was Irish not British, and his work reflects his Irishness, his sense of growing up Irish, his view of the world as an Irishman.
Heaney went on to become Professor of Poetry at Oxford University and to be awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1995 for what the Nobel committee described as:
works of lyrical beauty and ethical depth, which exalt everyday miracles and the living past.
Actor Liam Neeson, also born in Northern Ireland, told the BBC:
With Seamus Heaney's passing, Ireland, and Northern Ireland especially, has lost a part of its artistic soul. He crafted, through his poetry, who we are as a species and the living soil that we toiled in. By doing so, he defined our place in the universe. May he rest in peace.
Former President Bill Clinton was also a close friend of Heaney, visiting the poet in hospital after his stroke in 2006; Clinton also named his dog Seamus in honor of the poet. He had this to say of Heaney's passing:
His uniquely Irish gift for language made him our finest poet of the rhythms of ordinary lives and a powerful voice for peace.
Clinton used Heaney's phrase
when hope and history rhyme
from Heaney's play Cure at Troy in his 1995 speech in Derry, and went on to use it for the title of his 1996 book detailing his vision of the USA in the 21st Century. At the memorial service for Sean Collier, a campus police officer who was killed in the line of duty during the aftermath of the Boston Marathon bombings, Vice President Biden quoted the whole phrase from Heaney's version of Sophocles' play Philoctetes.
History says, Don't hope
On this side of the grave,
But then, once in a lifetime
The longed-for tidal wave
Of justice can rise up
And hope and history rhyme.
One of the most lasting memories that I have of Heaney, who I last saw in 2009, is of him and his wife Marie at a Horslips concert, where he sang along with the lyrics, excited and smiling to see the band which takes traditional Irish tunes and themes (including Irish mythology like the Tain and the Book of Invasions) and rocks them out. No stranger to pop culture, in 2003 Heaney praised rap artist Eminem, saying:
He has created a sense of what is possible. He has sent a voltage around a generation. He has done this not just through his subversive attitude but also his verbal energy.
Heaney himself created a sense of what is possible and made it so, sending a voltage around several generations with his vast knowledge and verbal energy. Rest in peace.

August 2, 2015
NEW YORK (AP) - For the first time since the days of Ruth and Gehrig, the New York Yankees have won four straight series to start a season.
Alex Rodriguez passed Mark McGwire for eighth place with his 584th home run, Derek Jeter also connected and A.J. Burnett pitched seven shutout innings Saturday to lead the surging Yankees over the Rangers 7-3.
After taking two of three against Boston, Tampa Bay and the Los Angeles Angels, the defending World Series champions swept the opening two games of a three-game set against Texas.
Not since 1926, the first year Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig started the season together, had the Yankees won their first four series. The only other year they achieved the feat was 1922, when they were still playing at the Polo Grounds.
