1 Corinthians 9:7
|Next Verse
Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock?
Note 1 at 1Co 9:7: Paul used a series of illustrations to strengthen his point (1Co 9:4 and 6) that he had the right, or power, to derive his living from the Gospel if he wanted to. Soldiers don't have to maintain themselves. All their needs are met by the government. Those who work in vineyards get to eat freely of the fruit they are harvesting. Shepherds get to drink the milk from their flocks. In any kind of profession, workers have the right to their wages. Therefore, it is right for ministers to live from the proceeds of preaching the Gospel.

An autopsy determined Monday that parental neglect led to the death of a Ridgeville infant who was mauled last week by the familys dog as his father slept.
But while authorities think there was a criminal aspect to the incident, they have yet to determine whether the father, 28-year-old Quintin McGrew, will be charged.
Were collecting a lot of information during the investigation, Chief Deputy Sam Richardson of the Dorchester County Sheriffs Office said. We want to be careful and methodical.
The death of 2-month-old Aiden was ruled a homicide, according to County Coroner Chris Nisbet. The coroner had ordered the autopsy to determine whether anything contributed to the childs death before he was attacked by the Labrador-retriever mix, but that wasnt the case.
Nisbet said in a statement that neglect led to animal eating, which killed Aiden.
Lt. Tony Phinney, supervisor of the sheriffs Criminal Investigations Division, said detectives are waiting for additional information. Working with state agencies and Solicitor David Pascoe, they wont iron out any charges against McGrew for at least another week.
It is a horrible case, Phinney said. We just want to make sure everything is in order.
Deputies were called to the mobile home at 151 Sandpit Road after 11 a.m. Friday and found that the familys Labrador-retriever mix had attacked Aiden. His mother reported in a 911 call that the babys leg was torn off.
The child was pronounced dead a short time later at Summerville Medical Center.
Authorities have called the case one of the most gruesome they have handled.
Sheriff L.C. Knight said last week that McGrew was lying in bed with the familys other dog and their 3-year-old. Aiden was in a bedroom swing when he was first bitten, the sheriff said.
The boys mother, Chantel McGrew, and her 7-year-old returned home and found the bloody scene.
Responding deputies would later report that the four family members were outside the home as paramedics frantically worked the save the child on the living room floor, according to an incident report.

There is a real difficulty in building a consensus for a particular approach. An analyst in one state basically told me "We need a break from Medicaid." It is really hard to figure out what vehicle to choose. There is support for a number of different approaches. It is a zero sum game in states. You almost always have to take something away from somebody who has got it in order to get something new, and that is very hard.
Shelly Gehshan
National Conference of State Legislatures, Washington, DC
Public Workshop, June 2, 1997
From the perspective of employers, health care coverage was never considered an entitlement. It was always a way of paying additional compensation, and employers have had to address equity issues between employees. Say you have two employees who are performing the same job and one is single and one has a family. The one with the family would be earning more in compensation because of their family, not because they are taking on any additional responsibilities and functions. With spiraling health care costs, many employers have asked employees to contribute more towards their share of health coverage, especially toward family coverage, to address the equity issue.
Kim Monk
Washington Business Group on Health, Washington, DC
Public Workshop, June 2, 1997
It's very important to worry about safety net providers because they are doing very critical work in our communities. But I would hope that we come to some lessons about the value of insuring individuals and creating financial resources which follow the individual, as opposed to trying to set those resources into the institutions. That, it seems to me, is a policy that has failed.
Kay Johnson
George Washington University, Washington, DC
Public Workshop, June 2, 1997
The committee's goal for this report, therefore, was to draw a general set of conclusions about ways to help improve children's access to care that would apply to a variety of public and private insurance programs. The committee hopes this report will help to improve the evidence base for children's health insurance efforts and for efforts to improve the quality of children's health care. The committee's specific concerns about the need for data to evaluate the SCHIP program and its recommendations for designing a system of accountability for SCHIP are presented separately (IOM, 1998).

NForce drivers version 1.0-0310 - no ALSA?!
First of all I am quite happy that nVidia bothers to make drivers for Linux. That's about as happy as I am with nVidia.
The new 1.0-0310 drivers finally fixes compatibility problems with some kernels, so that it is now possible to actually load the drivers into a kernel. Only problem is that the drivers are for the deprecated Open Sound System, which is likely not to be present in future kernel versions, and already is not that well supported in a lot of distributions anymore. I for one, am unable to use any of the sound applications I normally use with this set of drivers and am unable to use the normal means to configure my sound.
Why nVidia has not chosen to support ALSA from the beginning is beyond me. ALSA is already quite old and is widespread - the 2.6 lines of kernels even have OSS emluation for ALSA devices, so OSS drivers is not really needed and we could all just drop OSS driver support completly today (if everyone had ALSA drivers) and we wouldn't be able to feel the difference.
This is unacceptable. ALSA support is required on a modern Linux desktop. OSS is not.

Anonymous review via Feefo | Purchase date: 02 February 2014
Brilliant sound, and awesome power for such a small head! I think I'll be looking for my ideal sound for a lobg time such are the options on offer!
Marc | Purchase date: 10 September 2012
This light weight Ampeg gear really punches above its weight. I have gigged with it over the last month and it' sounds wonderful. It's clear, punchy with that great Ampeg sound.
Highly recommended.
Adrian | Purchase date: 30 June 2012
Classic Ampeg sound from an amazingly small package. Holds it's own easily in small to medium sized venues without the need to run through the p.a.
Steve | Purchase date: 05 April 2012
An excellent head which I have used live, in rehearsal and in the studio.
Sounds great with my passive basses and has a whole bunch of great features. Incredible value foir the price and a great sound. The best combination!
Andy | Purchase date: 05 March 2012
Had it a month so far and I'm very impressed. Done several practices and 1 gig.
I've yet to really play around with the tone controls, I just set everything flat - plugged in and it sounded awesome straight off. Other reviewers mentioned the US power cord (mine came with a 3 pin) and potentially fragile controls but I haven't found that to be an issue.
I bought the amp along with the PF-115HLF cab and attached the amp to the flip top lid so when storing and transporting the amp part is hidden away. Note that the head will only fit one way on the lid - check carefully first as I got it wrong the first time around.
In terms of sound/tone it's great for what I play (60s/70s/80s rock/blues covers) and the comments from band members is that it looks and sounds great.
It has a built in compressor but I favour using my own external one, just cos with my existing compressor I can dial in exactly the setting I want.
For our band it's plenty loud enough and we only put vocals through the PA, but it has a DI output if you need to use it.
Mr pitt | Purchase date: 19 June 2011
still getting used to amp but seems to perform well.Tone controls make quite a differance and can get a variety of sounds.Setting up the fliptop option is a bit fiddly but worth it.One major gripe,amp comes with a two pin power lead which you cant use in a british socket.
Mr. steve marks | Purchase date: 06 June 2011
bought a couple of weeks ago, gigged it twice, rehersed it twice as well. Pros, good sound, light, cheap. Cons, dials feel a bit flimsy.
If you're after the Ampeg sound, this is a good entry point for the price. You're not getting the SVT sound obviously, but you aren't getting the weight or cost either.Stick a decent tube preamp pedal in front and you're almost there. Loud enough for my 3 piece rock band for pub stuff, Di to PA for bigger venues is handy. Switchable EQ and bass boost also good. For the money (£300) this is a bargain and its Ampeg so you wont feel ashamed of it sitting on your cabs! My only concern was the dials all feel a bit cheap and flimsy so we shall see how long they last. Quite "toppy" as well i thought but that could be my bass (Jap Fender P/J) but easy enough to dial in your sound with quite a good EQ. 4 stars from me, but its early days!

Paul Raymond Strohm(1917 – 2012)
Paul Raymond Strohm, 94, of Rancho Bernardo, died peacefully following a brief illness on Monday, August 27, 2012. He was born on October 8, 1917, in Centralia, Kansas, to Frances and Wynn Strohm. Paul spent his early years in Beattie, Kansas, until his father's death in 1930. He grew up in Maryville, Missouri, where he attended high school and college, graduating from Northwest Missouri State Teachers College in 1939.
His father, mother, brother, Leo, and sister, Amelia, preceded him in death. He is survived by his wife of nearly 65 years, the love of his life, Mildred Kolegraff Strohm; his son, Greg (Joan) of Grand Blanc, MI; daughters, Carole (Jack) Holcomb of Avondale Estates, GA, and Maureen (Chad) Schumacher of Pasadena, CA; eight grandchildren; and seven great-grandchildren.
He joined TWA's engineering department following graduation and worked for them for 41 years. In 1942, he enlisted in the
and served as Navigator Instructor in the Army Air Corps until 1945. His career with TWA took him from Kansas City, MO, to Burbank, CA, to Scarsdale, NY, and back to Kansas City before he finally retired to San Diego in 1985.
He was a quiet man of faith and conviction. Never drawing attention to himself, he was very active in whatever parish he joined serving as a Lector and Eucharistic Minister. He joined the Knights of Columbus in 1934 and was a 3rd Degree Knight in the Valley of the Angels Council #9710. While living in New York, he worked with Father James Keller, founder of the Christopher's, teaching a course called "How to be a Leader" for several years. During that time, he became very involved in the grassroots movement that created the New York Conservative Party. Paul was most proud of his work with Mother Teresa's Co-workers, co-founding chapters with his wife in their parishes in Parkville, MO, and Rancho Bernardo (San Rafael), CA. In 1985, he and Mildred were invested into the Knights of the Holy Sepulcher.
Paul will be remembered as a kind and gentle man, who was always willing to help, true to his faith and beliefs.
The family appreciates the care and devotion Paul received from the team at the Remington Club Assisted Living Center while he lived there with his wife, Mildred, for the past two years.
Visitation will be from 4:30 p.m. until 7 p.m. on Wednesday, August 29, 2012, at San Rafael Church in Rancho Bernardo with the Vigil Prayer Service to be held at 6:30 p.m. The Funeral Mass will be celebrated at 10 a.m. on Thursday, August 30, 2012, at San Rafael Church. The committal will be private at Mission San Luis Rey Cemetery in Oceanside.
In lieu of flowers, please make a donation in his name to his favorite charity to continue Mother Teresa's work in the San Diego area: Missionaries of Charity, c/o Sister Ann Marie, 3877 Boston Avenue, San Diego, CA 92113.

I was the starter on our high school track team 440-yard relay. One of the first lessons our coach taught us about this race was that there was more to winning than speed. No matter how fast we ran, we would lose if we didn't master the baton transfer.
In fact, we spent hours practicing this transfer. Coach drilled us on it and insisted it be polished to perfection. This was critical. On game day, if the transfer was fumbled, we would lose; if the baton was dropped, our team would be disqualified.
When we look back over the past generation of Christianity, it is apparent that we need to work on the "baton transfer." We're not successfully passing our faith to the next generation.
This isn't to say that, as Christians, we've been slackers. Throughout much of the past generation of fundamentalism, we have been intent on winning new converts. But too many times, in our zeal for increased speed, we've neglected to pass the faith to our children—both our own children and our children in the faith. While we may see increased numbers of salvations, we are failing at the key element of winning the race—transferring the baton.
A 2009 Gallup poll revealed a staggering spiritual illiteracy in our nation. The poll reported that one-third of all Americans believe that "the Bible, the Koran, and the Book of Mormon are all different expressions of the same spiritual truths." This is just one example of the post-Christian culture that is taking over our society and denying spiritual values and biblical truth. In this spiritual climate, the transfer of truth from one generation to the next is vital if the faith is to be preserved.
Christianity is never more than one generation from extinction. Regardless of our personal fervency for the Lord, if we fumble the baton transfer, we lose the race. Fumbling our faith is not an option.
Paul was intense in his zeal for Christ. He pioneered across the known world as he preached the Gospel to those who had never heard. At the same time, however, he exerted great energy in transferring the faith to his new converts. He diligently and tirelessly gave of himself to root young Christians in their own relationship with Christ and ground them in the truth.
Paul's converts didn't just attend church. They learned the key doctrines of the faith—the deity of Christ; the death, burial, and resurrection; salvation by grace through Christ alone; the inerrancy of Scripture; the literal return of Jesus Christ for the redeemed. Paul taught his spiritual children to defend the faith, and his ministry flourished long after he was gone.
The key to Paul's ministry was in his focus on the truth transfer. He instructed Timothy, "And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also" (2 Timothy 2:2). Paul realized that he had to do everything he could to pass truth on to the next generation of Christians.
Today, we must recognize the same need. It is not enough to simply be a Christian. It is not enough to just lead people to salvation. We must transfer the truth. As parents, pastors, teachers, and soulwinners—we must learn to equip others for the faith.
Like an Olympic relay runner, we have received the baton for our portion of the race, and we are responsible to transfer it. Yes, speed is important. But the transfer is vital. How can we effectively pass the truth on to our children and those we have led to Christ? How can we deliver our faith to the next generation?
Deliver the Faith through Discipleship
Our church is passionate about soulwinning, and we aggressively work to saturate our community with the Gospel. Years ago, however, I realized that our work doesn't end at the doorstep when someone trusts Christ through the efforts of a soulwinner. It doesn't even end as the new convert exits the baptistry. In fact, at these points, our work has just begun. We must transfer the truth through discipleship.
Investing in another through discipleship is making a choice to be the human instrument that will transfer the baton of truth. Discipleship allows a new convert to receive the truth in such a way that he can in turn pass it to the next generation.
Discipleship is what Paul did for Timothy. It is what Barnabas did for Paul. If you are a mature Christian, it is what others have done for you. Even if you did not have a formal discipleship program, someone (or, more than likely, several people) came alongside to help you become grounded in your faith and established in your relationship with Christ.
Remember, however, that the need for discipleship is not exclusive to new converts. This must take place in the Christian home as well, if we are to pass the faith to the next generation. Parents are commanded by God to train their children and to use every opportunity they can to teach them to love God passionately. Deuteronomy 6:7 instructs, "And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up." In other words, the home should be an ongoing school of discipleship.
Part of discipleship for new adult Christians is teaching them to build a Christ-centered home that will pass on the faith within its walls to the next generation.
Discipleship must take place in the home and in the church. And it must take place in both formal and informal settings.
Whether we are passing the faith to a young person or to a new Christian, there are two keys to making it work. Paul excelled at both.
Discipleship must be conducted in love.
As Paul instructed Timothy to transfer the truth, notice the term of endearment with which he addressed him: "my son." All throughout the two epistles Paul wrote to Timothy, it is easy to recognize Paul's great love for this young man.
This same spirit was evident in every case when Paul was delivering truth to new believers. He was both gentle and patient as he served them. He reminded the church in Thessalonica, "But we were gentle among you, even as a nurse cherisheth her children: So being affectionately desirous of you, we were willing to have imparted unto you, not the gospel of God only, but also our own souls, because ye were dear unto us" (1 Thessalonians 2:7–8, emphasis added).
It is one thing to teach or mentor out of duty. But Paul poured his heart and soul into transferring the truth. He loved the people to whom he ministered. He put his very health—and even his life—on the line to be sure the baton of truth was firmly placed in their grasp.
The most effective parents, pastors, Sunday school teachers, youth workers—disciplers of any kind—are people who love those in whom they are investing. Lasting discipleship occurs when a godly Christian is willing to give of himself because someone else is dear to him.
Indeed, discipleship does require sacrifice. It is a loving form of spiritual exertion. But seeing the next generation run with the truth makes it all worthwhile.
Discipleship requires ownership of the truth.
When Paul wrote to Timothy, "commit thou to faithful men…" he was emphasizing the need for ownership of the truth. Like a relay runner's baton—a proper transfer occurs only when someone receives it and owns it. There is no middle ground—you have the baton or you don't.
Paul was entrusting God's Word to Timothy so he could pass it on to others. He wanted Timothy to assume responsibility for it, recognizing that this was a trust from God Himself.
When we ask others to personally own the truth, we must help them understand that we are not delivering our opinions, but God's very Word. This is what made the truth transfer in Thessalonica successful. In 1 Thessalonians 2:13, Paul wrote, "When ye received the word of God which ye heard of us, ye received it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which effectually worketh also in you that believe." (Of course, this means we must be careful to differentiate between our opinions and God's Word as we teach others.)
From the Gnosticism of the first century to the German Rationalism of 150 years ago to the Atheism prevalent today, there will always be those who deny the inspiration and infallibility of Scripture. We must teach those we disciple that God's Word is both perfect and preserved; it is infallible and essential.
We ourselves must keep God's Word and pass it on in its preserved state so the next generation will have the pure words of Scripture. And we must model for them what it means to give God's Word preeminence in our lives. In other words, if we want others to own truth, we must embrace it first by living it.
Protect the Faith through Defense
Owning the truth is a great privilege. And if we want to retain that privilege and have the opportunity to pass it on to those who come after us, we must defend the truth.
Just as a relay runner holds his baton tightly while he runs, so we must "hold fast the form of sound words…" (2 Timothy 1:13). Too often, the next generation suffers because we have been flippant with the truth, failing to recognize its value and our responsibility to defend it.
Paul instructed Timothy to stand for the truth "…as a good soldier of Jesus Christ" (2 Timothy 2:3). A soldier's duty is to defend his country, and the Christian soldier's duty is to defend his faith. Jude 3 exhorts us to "earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints."
The idea of contending is not a popular one today. Tolerance is the highest virtue in our culture, and post-modernists insist we give up absolutes. The world is willing to allow us to personally believe the truth—as long as we keep it to ourselves and acknowledge that "truth" may be different to someone else. Truth, however, by its very definition, is set apart from falsehood. Thus, when you stand for the truth, you automatically stand in contention with all that is untrue.
Why must we defend the truth? Because even as we labor to transfer the truth, Satan works to pollute the truth. If we want to pass on the faith, we must protect it. Remember, if we drop the baton, we lose the race. But if we pass the baton successfully, we win.
Our goal in defending the faith is not simply to win debates or showcase our zeal. It is that we would be able to train our sons in the faith to "be able by sound doctrine both to exhort and to convince the gainsayers" (Titus 1:9).
We want our young people and our new converts to know the Word of God thoroughly and to be able to use it as a sword to defend their faith. For this to happen, we must refuse to compromise the truth. We must hold it fast so we have something to transfer.
Perpetuate the Faith through Distribution
Although soulwinning should not be seen as the only way to perpetuate the faith, it should be seen as an essential to furthering the faith. After all, it's difficult to pass a baton to nobody!
As we disciple our children, our young people, and those we have already reached for Christ, we must remember to keep distributing the faith to others. And, as part of discipleship, we must teach them to do the same. This is the full circle of 2 Timothy 2:2.
When God reconciled us to Himself, He entrusted us with the incredible ministry of reconciliation. Second Corinthians 5:18–19 lays out this privilege: "And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation."
Effectively ministering God's reconciliation requires two key components—consecration and compassion.
Reinforce the truth through a consecrated life.
Your life must be consistent with your message. This is why Paul warned Timothy, "No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier" (2 Timothy 2:4).
There are false perceptions of grace abounding in America today that downplay consecration. Too many preach that it really doesn't matter how you live, because you are under grace. Yet, Titus 2:12 plainly explains that the grace of God teaches us, "that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world." Grace is not a license to sin; it is a motivator to passionately live for God.
As a soldier must be completely committed to his cause, so we must be completely consecrated to our Lord. We cannot transfer the truth if our lives are filled with anger, lust, or worldliness. Hebrews 12:1 instructs us to "lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us." If we are tangled in the affairs of this world, we'll fumble the truth transfer. In fact, the next generation will take one look at the ineffectiveness of the truth in our lives, and they'll refuse to accept the baton.
Deliver the truth with a compassionate heart.
The old maxim "People don't care how much you know until they know how much you care" is true. Passionate soulwinning must be coupled with a compassionate heart. In fact, the same epistle that instructs us to "contend for the faith" also reminds us that there are some who "have compassion, making a difference" (Jude 22).
Effective soulwinning and discipleship are carried out by those who do it with a tear in the corner of their eye and a love in their heart for others. People can sense when we genuinely care for them—or when we are ministering to stroke our own egos.
The next generation will receive the faith only when it is delivered through a heart of compassion.
The truth transfer is the crux of our Christian race. We can run hard and give God our best. But if we fail to hand the baton of truth to another runner, we miss the purpose of the race. (2 Timothy 2:2)

Keke Palmer To Become Broadway's First Black Cinderella
Where is Keke Palmer finding all this time for these projects? She has to be the hardest working under 25 year old in the business right now.
After making headlines for being the youngest talk show host in history earlier this year, she's about to make history once again as the first black Cinderella on Broadway. Lately, the 20-year-old has been keeping busy with an Acuvue endorsement deal, an acting gig on Showtime's "Masters of Sex," working on new music and daily talk show duties on Just Keke, and now she's gearing up to move to the Big Apple to get fitted for her glass slipper. Her tenure starts September 9 at the Broadway Theatre.
Keke was all giddy when she caught up with AP News recently about her first professional stage role, while giving props to Brandy who played Cinderella back in 1997 on television.
"It's honestly one of those things that I can't believe is really happening. I'm very excited. Very excited and nervous as well — a bunch of feelings all at once."
"I feel like the reason I'm able to do this is definitely because Brandy did it on TV," Palmer said. "In me doing this, it shows everybody that everything is possible.[…]Every girl's dream is that story so to be able to play is going to be a dream come true for me. Not to mention that Stuart Weitzman made the glass slippers I'll be wearing.
She kept the excitement going while chatting with Yahoo TV about the role:
"I am through the roof about this, girl. I cannot believe it. It's crazy! It's crazy because I always thought at some point I'd be able to attempt Broadway, so when I got this opportunity and I ended up getting it… are you kidding? It's crazy. The thing about Broadway that excites me is performing every night and not knowing who's going to be out there. I don't know who I might see – I might see Denzel [Washington], I might see Oprah Winfrey, I might see Meryl Streep. That's the exciting thing about it. And I get to live out my dream every night, performing on stage, acting and singing, and it's so much energy pumping in the room and so much adrenaline.
I'm the type of person that likes to push myself, but talk about discipline – I'm about to go there to start rehearsals, and this is going to be strict. I know they have vocal regimens to help your vocals stay right… I'm the type of person who likes having that kind of order. But I'm really just excited to be pushed to be at the top of my game.
She continued:
Yes, I'm the first black Cinderella. I will be the first black Cinderella to ever be on Broadway. It's so amazing. I don't think it's a fully black cast though – I know they're thinking about some other African American actors for the stepmother, so there'll be another black person in the cast, but no, it's not a Wiz-ification. This is the same one that Carly Rae Jepsen just did, same director, just new Cinderella and probably new stepmother."
"The first show is the second week in September… just thinking about it, it's just crazy. I go to New York to start rehearsals on August 11. It's unbelievable to imagine that this is where it's come. I'm committed to that through January, then I'll pick back up with more Just Keke."
Congrats to Keke!

Kuwaiti telco Zain has signed a term sheet agreement to sell its quarter-stake in Zain Saudi, it said in a statement on Thursday, paving the way for a due diligence process on the $950 million deal.
The firm said the agreement was signed with Saudi investment firm Kingdom Holding and Bahrain's Batelco, on the terms previously set by Zain.
Kingdom and Batelco made a joint offer for the stake last month.
"Zain signed yesterday the term sheet for the non-binding offer, with Kingdom-Batelco consortium…to buy Zain's 25 percent stake in Zain Saudi," the firm said in a statement on the Kuwaiti bourse website on Thursday.
Zain's shares had been suspended pending the statement, and opened 1 percent lower at 0852 GMT when trading resumed.
Offloading the 25-percent holding in Zain Saudi was the pre-requirement of a $12 billion takeover of parent Zain by the UAE's Etisalat. The deal fell through last month after Etisalat walked away.
Yet Zain is still pursuing the Zain Saudi stake sale, despite Etisalat withdrawing its offer last month, citing Zain's divided board and regional unrest. (Reporting by Eman Goma; Editing by Dinesh Nair)

Galilee, 1025: A Templar knight uncoversa holy treasure in an ancient citadel a priceless icon that holds a mysterious and terrifying power.
A millennium later, Commander Gray Pierce of Sigma Force is dispatched to the African jungle, teaming up with former Army Ranger Captain Tucker Wayne and his military war dog, Kane, on a covert mission to rescue the U.S. President's pregnant daughter from Somali pirates. But Pierce fears the kidnapping masks a far more terrible terrorist agenda a suspicion proven true in a fiery ambush and a deadly act of betrayal . . . and by the firebombing of a South Carolina fertility clinic half a world away.
Suddenly Gray Pierce and Sigma Force are in a frantic race to save an innocent unborn baby whose very existence raises questions about the nature of humanity. And behind it all is a deadly cabal that has been manipulating events from the shadows throughout history . . . and a devastating conspiracy rooted in human genetic code that Pierce must expose before it alters humanity forever.

If you thought flower viewing was limited to the West Coast during spring, you'd be mistaken. Here's a list of where to see spectacular displays of all sorts of flowers across South Africa.
1.Cosmos Country, Mpumalanga
Cosmos Country straddles the borders of the Free State and Gauteng in the southwestern part of Mpumalanga and was named as such because of the multitude of cosmos flowers which bloom here, transforming the region into a kaleidoscope of pink, purple and white in late summer every year. What better place for a flower enthusiast to visit than a region named after a flower? Cosmos Country Tourism Centre, tel 017-620-6282, www.mpumalanga.gov.za.
2. Sunflowers near Kroonstad, Free State
Located along the N1 between Bloemfontein and Johannesburg, Kroonstad is a truly golden destination around September and October, when the sunflowers come into bloom. Whether you're visiting Kroonstad or just passing by, you're bound to find yourself staring into those smiling golden faces. And there's no need to worry about missing the sunflowers in your mad rush to get to Bloem or Joburg as they're clearly visible from the highway.
3.Wild flowers in Namaqualand, Northern Cape
Namaqua National Park is a not-to-be-missed destination. After pre-spring rains, the landscape is transformed into a carpet of daisies in psychedelic colours, dotted with quiver trees and granite outcroppings that offer views to rival any natural wonder. Another reason to visit the park is that, of the 3 500 species growing there, about 1 000 are found nowhere else on the planet. Entrance costs R22. Tel 027-672-1948, www.sanparks.org/parks/ namaqua.
4. Daisies in Darling, Western Cape
With a range of spring flowers stretching from white daisies all the way through to purple skilpadblomme, the Darling district is a well-known favourite among flower lovers. The blooms are at their peak during August and September and the Darling Wildflower Show, from 14 to 16 September 2012, caters to all sorts of visitors. You'll be able to enjoy beautiful flower displays as well as live entertainment, stalls selling all sorts of goodies and foods, tractor rides and so much more. Entrance to the show is R30 an adult and R20 a child. Tel 022-492-3361, email firstname.lastname@example.com, www.darlingtourism.co.za.
5. Aloes in Graskop and Lydenburg, Mpumalanga
If you're looking for some real out-of-the-box flower viewing, try a drive along the route from Graskop to Pilgrim's Rest or via the JG Strydom Tunnel on the Abel Erasmus Pass. It'll be hard to miss the Graskop aloe (Aloe aloides) – which is restricted to this area – with its spikes of bright yellow flowers standing tall. According to an expert from the South African National Biodiversity Institute, the aloes in this area are best seen in June. If you're in the Eastern Cape around the same time, look out for the bright orange flowering Aloe ferox along the roadside.
6. Eastern Cape extravaganza, Port Elizabeth
The Van Stadens Wild Flower Reserve is a great spot for enjoying the sights and smells of flowers and doing a little bird-watching, whether you're alone or in a group. The focus of the reserve is the preservation of indigenous flora and visitors can explore the area to discover an array of flowering plant species such as fynbos, succulents and the ever-popular protea. Entry to the reserve is free. Tel 041-956-0038.

A few minutes later and the door was protected (perhaps not aesthetic improved).
In the following steps I will show you how it was done.
A few things to note:
This guard when made correctly will only help to reduce the risk of fingers being trapped in a door IT WILL NOT ELIMINATE RISK! - parents still need to remain vigilant and ensure that their children understand the dangers of playing with doors.
Duck tape will wreck your paintwork and wallpaper - if you are concerned then you may need to work out a different method of fixing
Step 1: You will need ...
If you don't have any (mine was some packaging from some signs I had ordered) then any other rigid but lightweight material will do.
Step 2: Measure your door
Open the door fully then measure across the width of the rebate (The pocket the door shuts into) in the door jamb and the door leaf on the hinge side.
You are measuring the longest distance that the guard will have to stretch to when the door is open.
If you are not sure how to measure then make a template by following the steps below:
1) cut a strip of paper about 100mm wide and 200mm long
2) fold in half
3) stick the ends to the door and frame with sticky tape
4) Keep adjusting the length of the paper till it seems to fold smoothly with the door in a similar way to the video
5) Measure the paper and use these dimensions for the finished guard

U.S. News Review
After nine years of construction, Rosalie Bay began welcoming guests to Dominica's west coast in January 2011. Guests praise this "eco-luxury" resort for its array of activities, including daily yoga classes, organic cooking tutorials and strenuous jungle hikes. Nestled in the Morne Trois Pitons foothills, Rosalie strives to protect its picturesque environment — the resort offers guests sea turtle conservation education, and generates its energy from a wind turbine. But that doesn't mean Rosalie Bay's accommodations lack luxury. After a seven-hour hike to Dominica's Boiling Lake, guests can sign up for a hot river stone massage at the oceanfront Gló Spa or take a dip in an onyx-lined saltwater pool. Recent guests love the ability to bed down in an air-conditioned cottage or guestroom after a long day in the steamy rainforest — private verandas, free Wi-Fi and flat-screen TVs are an added bonus. Zamaan Restaurant also receives praise for its healthy fare, much of which is grown in Rosalie Bay's own organic garden.

If TV has taught me anything, it's that to correctly motivate yourself in the fighting arts it is necessary for you to have a rival to fight to the death. It isn't too hard to find one; simply ask yourself this question? What relative (preferably a father or brother) died recently who's death I can avenge?
It also seems to help if you drop to your knees and scream "Noooooooooooooooooo!" in preparation.

Remember people, Bell put the ball on the ground. We know what we have in PT, but we don't know if Bell if going to hold on to the ball consistently. That fumble kept the Lions in the game into the 4th quarter, and that game should have been over by halftime.
So does this apply only within the state of Minnesota? Can they be suspended when the Vikings go on the road?
Brian Brohm was cut by the Packers (thanks to Matt Flynn, I'm sure!). He's a QB project with much more potential than Harrington. Pick him up SP!!!
You would think that the Saints organization would have enough sense to update the roster before they announced cuts. HTML editing is not rocket science.
Spicer is a surprise, as is Pressley. I hope we have enough D linemen. They need to publisher the final roster.
Rest him tonight and rest him again next week. We don't need RB to blow out the pu$$y cats.
Troy Evans may be a surprise cut. He's a great special teamer, but Waters and Casillas have starting potential. And regarding the first statement, I'd take Casillas over Harrington.
I don't see Reis as a lock; Young has shown more play-making ability. I would think that UY is higher on the depth chart than Reis, but they'll probably both make the cut.
IMO, for whatever that's worth.
Chip Vaughn is a problem. I don't know if they will put him on the final roster if he hasn't played a down in pre-season. His injury may not qualify for IR (not exactly sure what the rules are). Put him on the practice squad, and a team lacking depth at safety will sign him and wait out the injury. It will be a bummer if he's a wasted draft pick.
We need to run the ball _a lot_ on Saturday, especially when Brees is up against Houston's first string defense. You know they will be pressuring Bushrod / Nicks on the left side.
Ochocinco is one of the most obnoxious, disliked players in the league, but he just did us one huge favor by burning JD one more time. Saints fans should love him. OK ... maybe not love ... but at least tolerate him.
The young LBs - Dunbar, Mitchell, Evans , Castillas - are too valuable to the future of the defense (and to special teams) to push one off the roster to make room for a one-year non-starter in Brooks.
And why is Castillas wearing 62 when 57 is available?
The dude jumped out in front of Donte's car. He'd be just as dead if DS was sober or if was someone else driving the car. Justice is served, and, if anything, it's a little harsh.
Oh yeah, I think that's Eastern Time.
NFL NETWORK 7:00 AM SATURDAY 2009 NFL Preseason Game: Cincinnati Bengals vs. New Orleans Saints (replay)
For everyone outside of La.: set your DVR!!!
put MJ on ochocinco - trial by fire!!
NFL Network will replay all preseason games, but the live game will probably only be broadcast locally.
NFL Sunday Ticket doesn't show pre-season games, but local stations might show the Saints.
OK, so y'all need to fill an information void between the OTAs and training camp. What about rookie contracts? Why haven't I heard anything about rookie contracts? The Saints need to sign those boys and get them into camp. Anything has gotta be better than beating the dead horse that is the Houser story.
Countdown to Training Camp: 32 days.
Maybe Ninkovich is the man, and they wanted to give Houser a chance to go to training camp with another team. The new guy would be a camp body. You have to think that, as a backup DE, Ninkovich is better on coverage then either of these other guys.
