Faith in the Illogical: The Evolution of a Relative God and Its Theology
Just an objective casual reading of the English Bible reveals an evolving god based in a limited cultic setting of Canaan who is bound in a contract called a "covenant" to a small group of people know as the Hebrews. This a covenantal contract that binds all these local Hebrew is a standard ancient Near Eastern type of covenant that binds all gods of the neighboring areas to their chosen Semitic people also.
But one thing is clear; as Yahweh grows, so must the theology that defines him. This is easily seen in the J and E accounts of Genesis as later edited by P in order to keep God relevant and up to date.
Plus, this ancient god has a number of different names in Hebrew, but the ancient use of Yahweh (J) and God (E) are his major titles especially in the limited god of Genesis 3 who walks, talks and has limited knowledge (God has to ask Adam and Eve what happened (Gen. 3) and latter, Cain where Able is? (Gen. 4).
What we have is the old classic question: Which came first: The Chicken or the Egg? Or, as applied here: Which came first: God or Theology? For the objective mind, logic shows that as theology advances or changed, the concept of God also advances and changes. What theology shows is that humans learn by their past religious mistakes and put out new editions of God.
Even if one does not follow the editing of the Hebrew text into J,E,P,D and their subtexts, one is soon faced with the fact that the god of the Patriarchs is not the same God found in Second Isaiah (40 - 66), nor the God to the nations as preached by the Later Prophets. When theology moves on; so must Yahweh.
It is when we get to the New Testament with its Greek language pregnant with Greek philosophical terms and concepts that the old god Yahweh has now completely faded into an ancient past and a new revised theology emerges from the Hebrew Bible as translated into the Septuagint (LXX) which is itself quoted in the so called New Covenant / Testament. Now the limited Yahweh ceases to exists and what is left metamorphose into the Classical Greek term Theos or what know as "God" universal.
To shorten this post and stimulate discussion, I would like to engage the human mind in some basic fundamentals of logic with the underlying question focused on how Christians live their daily lives on one level of logic, which could cost them their lives if not followed closely, only to accept the illogics of evolved theology which one must force one's brain accept illogically by faith grown denial just to worship this concept call "God".
So here are some questions about this God at Passover (Easter) drawn from my everyday logic: (Take a shot at one or more)
A. If Jesus knowingly went up to Jerusalem at Passover to die, did Jesus commit suicide? If not, why not? Can a human suicide be an acceptable sacrifice?
B. If Jesus and God are ONE (Incarnation), did God commit suicide with Jesus or did the doctrine of the Incarnation cease at the time of the crucifixion as believed by some ancient Christian heresies? (In other words, did God "jump ship" and, if so, when?)
C. If it grieved God to have to give up his only begotten son, Jesus; how did God get himself into this "Catch 22" situation? If he can't get out of his own theological sin trap, is the old local Hebrew god Yahweh (who is now become the universal God in the New Testament (and especially in Paul)) subordinate to another even higher GOD to whom this God must take his marching orders from?
D. Can Christian theology finally become so contradictory and illogical that it will be rejected (as atheists do now) or will it require more and more faith just to counter the increasing illogics of its theology as our own tangible world becomes more logical? Will the only answer to the illogics of Christian Theology be the rapidly increasing growth of Christian sects and cults (over 20,000 now) where all are trying to make logical sense out of the all this illogical theology (where most are claiming to have been given the real truth as a way to proselytizes converts)?
E. In short, will the evolution of God and theology ever stop?

OGDENSBURG The Maple City soon could become the city upon the hill, setting an example for American communities by producing all of its own power.
S. Ram Shrivastava, president of Larsen Engineers, Rochester, proposed Ogdensburg become an example of an energy-independent city by erecting solar panels and other renewable-energy generators on municipal property.
It is a high goal, but it is achievable, he said. You can control the cost of your power, gain national recognition and build something that would be training and teaching for the next generation.
City Manager John M. Pinkerton said a resolution supporting Mr. Shrivastavas proposals would be before the City Council at its next meeting.
If we have space to put the solar panels, I then would like to have them go and find a developer to do that, he said.
The erection of the panels would be covered by grants from the New York State Energy Research and Development Authoritys NY-SUN Photovoltaic Program, Mr. Shrivastava said.
The governor has made this a priority. There will be a lot more solar power in New York in the next few years, and you should be a part of it, he said.
The program provides $150 million each year for the development of municipal solar power facilities. Under Mr. Shrivastavas proposal, a private company would apply for the grants and install the solar panels, enjoying state and federal tax incentives for building clean energy facilities.
There are groups of folks who are solar-power developers, Mr. Shrivastava said. We send out requests for proposals to those companies.
Larsen Engineers would handle the design and feasibility studies for the project, paid out of the grants.
Ogdensburg then would contract to buy electricity from the private companys solar panels for 20 years.
After 20 years the panels become the citys, Mr. Shrivastava said. Your costs would go down even more, and the panels have a life of 40 years.
Mr. Shrivastava said the city could begin the process of applying for grants and looking for private partners without worrying about being locked in.
Typically these things are nonbinding, he said.
The grant application is due by March 14, and funds could be awarded during spring. If the grants are secured, Ogdensburg and its partners would have eight months to implement the project.
Mr. Shrivastava, a graduate of Clarkson University, Potsdam, said solar power was a viable source of electricity in the north country.
Many people think the north country is too cold or too far north for solar energy, but solar panels work better in a cold climate, he said.
City government uses 2.5 megawatt hours of electricity a year. Grants are available to build up to two megawatt hours of electricity generation a year. The plan would design electricity generation to meet that need while searching for ways to reduce Ogdensburgs power demand.
When you add up demand reduction with your production, it zeroes out you make as much as you consume, Mr. Shrivastava said.
If the demand still exists, the city could have additional panels built with subsequent grants.
Mr. Pinkerton said the plan would not only save the city money, but also set an example for other municipalities around the world.
If all went well, it might put us on the leading edge for a change that would be nice, he said.
Council members liked the idea in principle, but said they wanted more information before supporting the plan. One complication, Deputy Mayor Michael D. Morley said, is a recent agreement for the city to buy electricity at a set cost for three years from a third-party provider.
I need more information before I can gauge what is going on, he said. We committed ourselves to two or three years, a long-term contract to buy power. If were obligated to them, how are we going to enter another agreement?
Mr. Pinkerton said any agreement with Larsen Engineers would be reviewed by City Attorney Andrew W. Silver to make sure it did not conflict with previous city contracts.
Mr. Morley wanted to know where Ogdensburg would put the panels.
I cant believe we have enough rooftops to put these in. Where are we going to put these? In parks? These are things they usually put in isolated areas, not right in a community.
Mr. Shrivastava said a 5-acre solar farm could produce enough power for municipal buildings. Ms. Stevenson said the city should be able to find the space.

Why get a nose job?
Rhinoplasty is the medical term for nose surgery, or a "nose job." There are two main reasons you might get a nose job. For one, you might not like your nose. Your nose helps define your facial image and is one of the first things a person will notice about you. Through rhinoplasty, a surgeon can change the shape or size of your nose, but it is not without risk or cost.

The Motorola Unlocked Droid (X) has been well received by the customers and indeed it has a lot of plus sides to it as compared to the draw backs. Probably the biggest plus of this phone is that it does not come with a very heavy custom UI which means that the updates for the Android will reach this phone much faster than other phones which have the infamous Sense UI which does get pretty heavy and entails that the Android 2.2 updates will be reaching these devices much later than the others. This according to us is pretty much what the case is as there have been cases where the owner of any HTC Sense enabled phone is not getting this update while a plain Android Nexus One has the Froyo. The EVO 4G however is probably the only phone on the Sense UI slated to get the Froyo. In this light, we have received news from sources that the Motorola Droid users will not have to bear the agony as it is to get the Android 2.2 as early as next week.
This will mean that the Droid can be used to experience the best of the Froyo features on the keyboard included handset. One of the most important features of the Froyo is the capability to support Flash 10.1 which means that there will be improved Java Script feature which entails that browsing the internet on your phone will be better than ever before. The microSD storage for apps gives the user pretty good flexibility to manage the memory on your phone. The update will mean that the phone can be totally revamped and one will feel as if they are getting a totally new device altogether. We will keep a track on when this will be pushed into the market especially by the service providers like Verizon.

Ruben Tejada is OK, wanted to play on Tuesday
Terry Collins said Ruben Tejada has some swelling in his leg, but made himself available to play today, according to MetsBlog's Meredith Perri.
Tejada was spiked in his shin on a play at second base in the 10th inning of Monday's 8-2 loss to the Nationals. He did not require stitches in his leg.
Tejada told Mike Mazzeo of ESPN New York it was Collins' decision to rest him tonight.
Tejada is hitting .318 with a .362 OBP, 14 doubles and 16 RBI in 211 at-bats this season.
Michael Baron: This past weekend, Collins said he would find a game to get both Tejada and David Wright some rest. With that nasty collision last night, it's a good opportunity to rest Tejada, get some of that inflammation out of there, and freshen him up in general – their schedule does not get any easier over the next three weeks, and they do not have an off-day until August 6.

FORT DRUM After nine months apart, the first group of soldiers from the 10th Combat Aviation Brigade were able to hold their loved ones again Wednesday evening.
Among the returning soldiers was 1st Sgt. Derek W. Kubacki, who said his seventh deployment of his 21-year military career would be his last, as he was getting ready for retirement.
Its great being home, he said.
His wife, Claudia K., said the final deployment brought a wide range of emotions for herself and her children.
It was the shortest, but its been the longest, she said.
About 80 soldiers from C Company, 3rd General Support Aviation Battalion, 10th Aviation Regiment made up the returning group at Wheeler-Sack Army Airfield.
During its nine months in RC-East, the Medevac unit worked at a rapid pace.
Lt. Col. Keirya Langkamp, the 10th Combat Aviation Brigades rear detachment deputy commander, said the company completed 992 missions during their deployment, transporting more than 1,000 wounded soldiers from combat areas.
Wednesdays return flight was the first major group for the brigade, which deployed to Afghanistan this spring with about 1,800 personnel.
Pfc. Jacoria L. Joseph, who performed signal work, said she was proud to be a part of the deployment and happy to be home.
Im glad to be back on American soil, she said.
Her next stop: Georgia, so she could see her daughter.
Chief Warrant Officer 2 Joseph R. Hess was joined by his wife Doranna, who traveled from Idaho for the ceremony with their children Noel, 3, and Hannah, 3 months, and several other family members. Their oldest child, Tylee, 6, had to stay in Idaho for school, so the Hesses contacted her from the hangar by video chat.
The pilot said the deployment was the longest of his eight-year Army career.
Man, I wish I was still there, Chief Warrant Officer Hess joked, generating a smile and a slap on the chest from his wife.
Its awesome to be back with the family, he added.
Among the things he said he was looking forward to was seeing his family in the Phoenix area and spending Christmas in Idaho, where his wifes family lives.
This is probably going to be the last deployment for a long time, he said. Thats nice.
Video from the ceremony can be seen at http://wdt.me/10thCAB-return.

Deer Creek - Upper Cottonwood Two Lease Modifications
to Federal Coal Leases UTU-06039 and UTU-88554
USDA - Forest Service
Manti-La Sal National Forest
Emery County, Utah
Allen Rowley, Manti-La Sal National Forest (FS) Acting Forest
Supervisor, is proposing to consent to modify with stipulations
Federal Coal Leases UTU-06039 and UTU-88554 in the Deer Creek - Upper
Cottonwood area. The anticipated environmental effects of
implementing this proposal or other alternatives have been evaluated
following federal and state regulations. An Environmental Assessment
(EA) prepared jointly by the BLM, FS and OSM that discloses the
effects of implementing the proposed action has been completed. The EA
and associated environmental analysis documents are available upon
request and can be obtained from the Manti-La Sal National Forest
Supervisor's Office, the Ferron-Price District Office, or on the
internet at: http://www.fs.usda.gov/land/mantilasal/landmanagement.
Under the Proposed Action Alternative, the FS would consent to the
BLM modifying federal coal leases UTU-88554 and UTU-06039, with
stipulations for the protection of non-mineral resources. Based on FS
consent, the BLM would modify existing federal coal leases by adding
860 acres to Lease UTU-88554 and 320 acres to Lease UTU-06039.
The proposed two lease modification areas are within National Forest
System lands and the coal estate is administered by the BLM. The

Aldi, which today is among the world's most successful discount grocery store chains, will soon mark its 100th anniversary and traces its history back to Karl Albrecht, who began selling baked goods in Essen on April 10, 1913 and founded the Aldi name by shortening the phrase Albrecht Discount. His sons Karl Jr. and Theo expanded the chain dramatically, creating 300 stores by 1960 divided between northern and southern Germany, with Aldi Nord and Aldi Sued, respectively. Today the two chains have approximately 4,300 stores nationwide and have also expanded into other countries across Europe and the USA. Aldi Nord operates in the USA under the name Trader Joe's.

Simple - who do you guys think should win the Heisman this year?
I really don't think any of the candidates has a air tight case for them but I think they all could win it. As much as I'd like to see Brennan get it I don't think he will since he didn't get it last year when his numbers were even better. McFadden would be my vote but his early struggles knock him down. Still, I'd vote for him. Tebow has the best overall numbers but his team still only went 8-3 after winning the title last year. Daniels has a case too but coming up short to Oklahoma when it mattered the most kills his case.

McFadden's the best NFL player, but Tebow is getting the trophy. 50+ TD's is no joke.

I am torn on this.
The Heisman is SUPPOSED to reward the "Best Player" in college football. Not the most valuable and not who had the best stats, but simply the best player. Obviously that has morphed into "the best player, who put up great stats on a team that won and he was the most valuable to that teams success"
I dont know who I would vote for yet but I would classify it like this:
Best Player = McFadden (throw out stats and winning and stuff like that, McFadden can do it all and is the best player in the country)
Best statistical player = Tebow (first player in the history of college football to throw for 20+ TD's (29) and rush for 20+ TD's (21). That is 51 TD's in arguable the best conference in college football)
Most Valuable= Chase Daniel (without him, they are a worse than average football team)[/b]

Colt is such an interesting guy. He came out of Southern California's Mater Dei (was on the same team as Matt Leinart) and went to the University of Colorado where he got himself in a load of trouble
He ended up at Saddleback Community College (15 minutes from my house) and set many of the school's passing records. He then transfered to Hawaii and put up two incredible years.
He's had a rough time from HS to where he is now, and I'm hoping he ends up as a solid NFL player.

As many as two-thirds of adults underwent a medical test in the last few years that exposed them to radiation and in some cases, a potentially higher risk of cancer, a study in five areas of the US suggests.
Study looks at radiation exposure
Dr. James Thrall, chief radiologist at Massachusetts General Hospital, said a big limitation of the study was the lack of information about why the tests were done. Without it, he said, it's impossible to know whether the test was medically necessary.
"There's a risk that people who need a lifesaving or life-improving imaging procedure might not get one" because of radiation worries, said Thrall, who is also chairman of the American College of Radiology's board of chancellors.

CSU Campuses Reach Out to Help Haiti
January 28, 2010
By Teresa Ruiz
CSU campuses have responded to the crisis in Haiti after a devastating 7.0-magnitude earthquake hit the country on Jan. 12, followed by a 6.1-magnitude aftershock on Jan. 20. Several CSU presidents, including Cal State L.A. President James Rosser, San Diego State President Stephen Weber, CSU Stanislaus President Hamid Shirvani, Cal State Long Beach President F. King Alexander, Cal Poly Pomona President Michael Ortiz, Sacramento State President Alexander Gonzalez and CSU Dominguez Hills President Mildred García have all sent messages to their campus communities highlighting ways to support those impacted by the quake. San Jose State and Chico State have also provided information on their websites about organizations providing relief to Haiti. In addition student athletes at Cal Poly Pomona are raising funds, the Dominguez Hills campus is collecting food, clothing and medical supplies, while engineers at San Francisco State are preparing to send wheelchairs to survivors, and students at Chico State are leading a fundraising drive for medical assistance.
From thousands of miles away researchers in San Diego State University's Immersive Visualization Center are helping first-responders on the ground in Haiti. Music is playing an important role in raising funds at Cal State East Bay where a Haitian Relief Benefit Concert will take place Jan. 29 and at San Jose State's concert for victims of the earthquake Feb. 7. So far, the campus community at Cal State San Bernardino has raised nearly $5,000 for the cause and CSUCI has teamed up with a local-fourth grader to raise cash for Red Cross relief efforts. CSU Northridge gathered dozens of their "gently" used athletic shoes for victims. Finally, Fresno State sent campus-wide alerts suggesting ways to donate and is currently working on a viral marketing campaign to encourage donations. For more information about current and developing efforts CSU campuses are undertaking to help in Haiti, visit individual campus websites.

With ceremony, speeches and a snip of the ribbon, the new Department of Veterans Affairs outreach clinic opened for business in Price Thursday.
The facility at 189 S. 600 West is dedicated to serving 600 to 800 veterans in Carbon and Emery Counties. It is part of Veterans Affairs' efforts to locate clinics closer to rural veterans instead of having the vets travel long distances to get primary health care.
VA has been investing in technologies for "telemedicine," which enables examinations and diagnosis by health care professionals far away from the patient. Holly Martin, APRN, will be the primary care provider via tele-medicine.
In Price, Matthew Heath, RN, is the on-site case manager and Kelli Knighton is health technician.
Mario Dicaro, an Army veteran and former commander of the Price Post 3 American Legion, and Neldon Huff, the Navy veteran who now leads the post, were keynote speakers.
Others who addressed the crowd under the canopy at the outdoor ceremony were Price Mayor Joe Piccolo; Glen W. Grippen, Director of the VA Rocky Mountain Network; Mary Beth Skupien, Director of the VA Office of Rural Health in Washington, D.C.; and Steve Young, Director of the VA Health Care System in Salt Lake.
Visitors got a tour of the technology inside that will bring professional care electronically to vets in Carbon and Emery.
Ms. Knighton demonstrated a retinal scanner that can photograph the inside of the eye, then create and store a digital image for diagnosis at a distance.

A father who trashed a Watertown head shop with a baseball bat admitted to the act Friday in Jefferson County Court, but may escape any additional consequences.
Daniel H. Avery, 49, Chaumont, pleaded guilty to the misdemeanor charge of fourth-degree criminal mischief, admitting that on July 24 he damaged property at the since-closed Tebbs Headshop, 144 Eastern Blvd. Police said at the time that he used a bat to shatter the stores front-door window and broke a display case and glass countertop and some merchandise in the store.
Mr. Avery subsequently told the Times that he committed the acts because he was upset that his son, Justin, 24, was hospitalized the night before after using bath salts purchased at the store. Bath salts are a synthetic drug with narcotic effects similar to methamphetamine and cocaine. Mr. Avery said that when he went into the store, he asked the clerk whether the store sold bath salts or glass cleaner, and the clerk responded by presenting him a variety of products and instructions on how to use them.
The state has since banned the sale of the substances and the state attorney generals office has gone after multiple businesses statewide, including Tebbs, to ensure the drugs remain off retail shelves. State Supreme Court Judge James P. McClusky ruled in January that Tebbs violated state Agriculture and Market Laws by selling the mislabeled products. The attorney general this week asked the judge to impose penalties in excess of $675,000 against Tebbs owner, John E. Tebbetts III, Rome, who also faces up to 20 years in federal prison after pleading guilty Dec. 19 in U.S. District Court, Syracuse, to possession with the intent to distribute controlled substances and controlled substance analogues and engaging in a monetary transaction in property derived from specified unlawful activity. He also faces fines topping $5 million when he is sentenced April 29.
As for Mr. Avery, he was sentenced Friday to a one-year conditional discharge, meaning that if he stays out of legal trouble for the next year, that will be his sentence. He also was ordered to pay $639 in restitution to Tebbs for the damage done.

CANTON A St. Lawrence County legislator has proposed the county change its logo to modernize it.
Alex A. MacKinnon, R-Fowler, thinks the county logo a drawing of a jumping deer could stand an update.
Mr. MacKinnon said he has no particular feeling about what the logo should be but that it could be something in keeping with the 21st century.
We still have plenty of running deer, but we have other things as well, he said.
The seal appears on county highway trucks, letterheads, the county map and various official documents.
There have been a number of versions of the logo over the years, said printing and mailroom supervisor Richard M. Cassara, a graphic artist who reworked it in 2010 when some new door seals were needed.
The oldest representation I have is of an engraving, he said.
Mr. Cassaras version includes the deer leaping over cultivated fields that represent agriculture, mountains for the Adirondacks, water for the St. Lawrence River and a maple tree.
Ill do whatever they tell me, he said.
Other examples of the logo are more simplistic, lacking much detail.
Trent A. Trulock, director of the county Historical Association, is researching the history of the seal for a presentation Mr. Cassara intends to make.
Mr. Trulocks preliminary work shows that the seal appears in a history of the county by Franklin Benjamin Hough, which was originally published in 1853.
The county was formed in 1802 so sometime between 1802 and 1853, the seal was adopted, Mr. Trulock said. Its a deer jumping.
Several county departments have their own logo and there has been talk in the past of a uniform image, Administrator Karen M. St. Hilaire said.
The treasurers seal has a cow, the old Board of Supervisors had a beehive and the Board of Legislators incorporates a gavel and feather, for example.
Mr. MacKinnon said he thought changing the seal could be a way of thinking about county resources and what best symbolizes the area.
It could be a community project, he said. Who knows what well come up with?
Mr. MacKinnon asked that anyone with ideas email the county Board of Legislators office at email@example.com or email@example.com.
Any change could be implemented over time such as when letterhead runs low so a large expenditure would not be necessary, Mr. MacKinnon said.

MASSENA Relatives of Edward and Eileen Kassian are suing the Canadian government for damages related to their deaths in a November 2008 car accident.
If successful, the family could receive between $1 million and $1.5 million, attorney William J. Sammon said.
The Kassian family filed the lawsuit in Ottawa with the Superior Court of Justice, the highest trial court in Ontario.
The suit names the Akwesasne Mohawk Police Service, AMPS Constable Michael Biron and Sergeant Kenneth Chaussi, the provincial governments of Ontario and Quebec, and the Canadian federal government as defendants.
The family is alleging all of the defendants were liable to some degree for the deaths of Mr. and Mrs. Kassian, both 77, in the Cornwall Island accident, Mr. Sammon said.
Were alleging negligence on the part of two police officers, for which the government would be vicariously liable for their actions, he said.
Ontario law caps damages related to the loss of a loved one at $125,000.
Each of Mr. and Mrs. Kassians three children then could be awarded up to $250,000 for the loss of both parents, with the grandchildren eligible for additional money, Mr. Sammon said.
On the evening of the accident, Mr. Biron had attempted to stop suspected cigarette smuggler Dany Gionet, 21, on Cornwall Island after receiving a police tip that his vehicle appeared to be loaded with contraband.
Mr. Gionet failed to comply with the traffic stop and led Mr. Biron on a chase reaching speeds as high as 100 miles per hour along the islands rural roads before blowing through the intersection of International and Island roads, striking the Kassians passing vehicle and killing all three people.
Mr. and Mrs. Kassian, who lived in Massena, were returning from a day trip from Montreal.
Mr. Biron and Mr. Chaussi, the supervising officer the night of the accident, were both charged with criminal negligence causing death after the accident. Provincial Justice Charles D. Anderson dismissed those charges in September 2010.
While criminal charges were not proven, the level of proof needed is less in civil proceedings, Mr. Sammon said. The Kassian family is alleging the pursuit was unnecessary.
When you look at all the circumstances surrounding the pursuit ... the level of pursuit that was engaged in was out of proportion to the problem they were trying to solve, he said.
Civil proceedings against the Canadian government began over a year ago, Mr. Sammon said. Next year is the earliest the case could go to trial.
Mr. Sammon said he could only guess why Mr. Biron received Governor General David Johnstons Medal of Bravery award given the context of that days events. Mr. Johnston awarded Mr. Biron for attempting to save the Kassians from their burning vehicle.
The only thing I could imagine that the people who were making the decision were not fully aware of all if the circumstances surrounding the collision and how it occurred, he said. I would think whoever was making the decision, I would assume, was not aware of all the facts.

Jack Elliot PM'd me and says he is likely in for Saturday night. He can't post for some reason. Ken - It would be nice if you could join us more often. At least there is a lot of great backpacking close to you and we have a first class trip organizer/host upstate. People are willing to come to you.
Per my phone message Dave, I am tentative. Also, this is the trip that I was putting together so if anyone was expressing interest in that one, this is one in the same
Yea I can post again, thanks Roger C. for all the help.I'm in plus some friends, I think Adam Criswell, Brian Conrad, Andy Glass. Kevin Smith, and maybe a friend from work. Brian and Andy were the 2 guys that we met there 2 years ago in that blizzard, BRING ON THE SNOW!I'll, keep you posted.Jack
Very interested for Saturday night, possibly +1. Are you planning on hiking in on Friday?
Hi Guys,I am totally in for this trip! Adam C.
Great group so far and more are still welcome.Chris- I was thinking of taking Friday off or maybe working a half day and hiking or skiing in Friday. I am guessing most people are in for Saturday. Is anyone else interested in starting Friday?
I'm interested in hiking in on Fri., but just not possible. My son may be going also.
I'm interested In Saturday night, also possibly +1. Sounds like fun!Andrew
I would be interested in going in on Friday. I will see if I can get the day off.
I'm interested on Friday but won't know more until the end of the month
I missed last years fun in the snow at Dewey Pt so I'm going to give it another go.It will be fun as always!BTW - I'll be in Yosemite for New Years.
I need to hurry up and get my gear... which santa is helping out with.But I'd like to attend if there is room.
Definitely still room. Don't let a lack of gear stop you. I know a lot of people coming have two or three of everything and may be able to help. Just post what you think you need to borrow.
Two years ago I talked to the ranger at the A frame hut at Badger Pass about this topic. The permit requires you to take proper care with food storage but as of 2010 did not require the Bear canisters. the Yosemite bears as well as other critters are active during the winter. We used OP sacks and buried our food away from the tents just in case.The permit also prohibits the gathering and burning of wood.
David, can we find out how many people are allowed to actually go i.e.. quota. We may hike in late Fri. on your permit. I don't want to get there Sat. morning to find out that the quota has been filled already. Our head count is around 12-13 right now. I think my son wants to go also, he's never been winter hiking so I'll have to lend him some gear. If you call, will they give you the quota number for Dewy Point?Jack
Hey guys, looks like I am out unfortunately. I just started a second job and I have to work. Have fun!

QUICKNESS? NO. DESIRE, COMMITMENT? YES.Some quick chalk talk with Scott Gordon
"It's not about speed, it's about effort," Scott Gordon said in our one-on-one conversation the other day. "It's not about having great quickness, it's about having the desire to get there and make the play."
The reason I asked to meet with the first-year head coach was my curiosity about his plans for the Islanders' style of play going-forward. But first, a three-paragraph review of how we got here:
When he was hired last August, Gordon brought a specific system to the Islanders from Providence of the AHL. Garth Snow's belief in his strategy was a big factor in the coach getting his first NHL opportunity. Despite being predicted to finish last in the league by many experts, the Islanders may not have set the league on fire but they were a fun watch and stayed competitive at 10-12-2. Gordon received some raves. The Canucks invented the term "pre-pinch" and discussed how difficult the Islanders were to play against. Then the roof caved in – Rick DiPietro was lost for the season, an injury epidemic hit. There was plenty of poor play and, yes, some imperfect coaching.
There were two signature moments of the collapse. A 9-2 embarrassment in Pittsburgh on Dec. 11 was a seismic jolt to the Islanders' confidence. After an overtime loss to Washington on Dec. 16, Brendan Witt shared with Greg Logan of Newsday his lack of faith in Gordon's ultra-aggressive system. From the beginning of December through January 19, the Islanders won two games.
Around the start of a brutal five-game homestand in mid-January, Gordon tinkered more and more with his system. As a result, the Islanders looked sharper while undermanned in tight losses to the Rangers, Boston, New Jersey and Washington. They proceeded to win four games in a row. Yesterday's win in front of a sold-out crowd at home erased some of the pain of the 9-2 blowout by Pittsburgh and was the latest example of Gordon's changes keeping the Islanders competitive.
So here's where we are today:
If Gordon was so confident in his highly-aggressive style of play that he brought to the Island, should we assume he'll go completely back to it when he feels he has more players to execute it?
I posed the question to Gordon in the cramped quarters of the coaches' change room at Iceworks. As he does sometimes, he quietly sent a challenge volley: "What are we doing differently"?
I provided my take, that his Islanders appear to be playing more of a 1-1-3 now. That Gordon at times is keeping a left wing or right wing in the neutral zone that I hadn't seen until about a month ago. I mentioned that it looked like his team was more cautious on faceoff plays, that they were still aggressive but not always go-go-go, not always pre-pinching. I told him that a few of his players shared with me their surprise when he entered the home team locker room with an alteration a few weeks ago at the second intermission when his team had the lead. (They won the game). I figured I was about 50% right, but now I was 100% out of material. So I asked him, "Is this a test, Scott"?
He said, "No," and with that got up from his locker stall and went to the dry-erase board. As I tried to follow along with my Nassau CC/La Salle U education, the head coach drew up a few examples of what he has changed, what's gone right and what's gone wrong. While Gordon didn't make a point of saying any of his chalk talk was off-the-record, I'm keeping it there for two reasons:
1. Whether I was the former PR person or a current blogger, I'm from the Bill Belichick school of believing most strategy stays in the room. Since Gordon fanatically is too, he probably meant to keep it there.
2. Even with the coach generously taking the time to draw it up for me, I still have no clue what they're doing differently after neutral-zone faceoffs.
"Sometimes you're dealt a hand," said Gordon, referring to his league-trouncing statistic of man-games lost to injury. "Sometimes you have to make adjustments. But I don't think you'll find anyone who'll say we're still not playing a very aggressive system."
This is true. I called up a few scouts that attended the Islanders' shootout loss to Los Angeles last Tuesday. They concurred. "You have to understand where Gordon's coming from," said one. "His team had nights when they were getting their doors blown off. He believes in his system and I'm sure when he gets the horses he'll go most of the way back to it. But as much as it may have killed him, he had to do something to prevent the occasional blowout and third period collapse. His lineup was decimated. His team's psyche had to hurt from the long losing streaks. The coach did the right thing."
Okay, I asked the scout. Does that mean if Gordon made the adjustments earlier, the Islanders might be pushing for 8th place instead of Tavheduch?
"Let's not get carried away," the scout said, laughing. "That team is really, really thin and with guys like DiPietro and Weight and all the dmen out, forget about it. They're still going to lose games. You can break up your system to stay competitive, but no – they could have played an all-out trap and would still be out of it. You do what Gordon did to keep the games close and get the occasional win."
Like yesterday over the Penguins. Although I knew Gordon wouldn't pull a Bill Stewart "Did you see our lineup?" I tried to press him about needing more players with the skill-set to play his system. The coach wouldn't go there, but emphasized that his style of play demands effort more than speed.
"When we have failed, it's not because the player lacked the speed to make the play," said Gordon. "It's because he either didn't execute properly or he didn't make the effort."
To use a Gordon phrase, here's my "take-away" from our conversation:
It's possible he may not be the stubborn, inflexible, go-go-system-crazed coach that I and maybe other writers have made him out to be. Let's give that one some more time.
And if it's not about speed and quickness but a desire to go hard for 60 minutes and to commit to Scott Gordon's system, the Islanders need to find about ten new players for season 2 of his NHL coaching career.
I'll have more on Scott Gordon in the weeks ahead about other aspects of his coaching, but felt it was important to address the system issue now. Talk about it in Comments. In case you missed it, please note details below on Point Blank Night II.

Memo to Sharon Stone: Halloween is over!
On Thursday, the actress attended the 10th Annual Lupus Hollywood Bag Ladies Luncheon in Beverly Hills … looking pretty scary (but she wasn't in costume!).
The 54-year-old sported a grey hat with a gold trim, a grey dress with a fur collar, orange gloves and an orange bag. While her outfit had its own serious problems, her makeup stole the spotlight ... and not in a good way.
Sharon either needs to hire a professional makeup artist or fire her current one for this look – bright gold eyeshadow which was generously applied on her eye lids (up to the brow line) and under her eyes ... and the clown-red lip didn't help.
Take note Sharon, eyeshadow should ONLY be applied to the lid of the eye and foundation is worn under the eye.
But she's not alone – plenty of celebs have made similar makeup mistakes. See all their bad makeup moves in the gallery above!

The Outer Shell tool is used to remove and clean up geometry that is on the inside of overlapping groups or components (all outer faces remain). The Outer Shell tool is often used, for example, to to remove unneeded geometry on the inside of a model of a structure to improve the model's performance in Google Earth. An intersection can be performed on two or more intersecting groups or components.
The result of an outer shell is similar to the result of a union. However, the result of an outer shell can only contain external faces while the result of a union can also contain internal geometry.
The following image shows two square tubes on the left, a union of the tubes in the center, and an outer shell of the tubes on the right:
Activate the Outer Shell tool from the tool palette (Mac OS X), the Solid Tools toolbar (Microsoft Windows) or the Tools > Solid Tools menu.
The following image shows two groups:
The following image shows these two groups when they overlap:
The following image shows the overlapping geometry of these two groups using X-Ray mode:
To create an outer shell:
- Select the Outer Shell tool (). The cursor changes to an arrow with a circle and a slash () if you are not over a group or component or a arrow with the number 1 () if you are over a group or component.
- Click on the group or component. The first group or component is selected. The following image shows the right group selected:
- Click on the second group or component. The outer faces remain.
Creating an outer shell by preselecting groups or components
You can also preselect the groups or components before performing an outer shell. To preselect groups and components and perform an outer shell:
- Select the Select tool (). The cursor changes to an arrow.
- Select all of the intersecting groups or components. The selected entities are highlighted in blue.
- Context-Click on one groups or components. The context-menu appears.
- Select Solid Tools > Outer Shell. The outer faces remain.
