From the moment I opened the box I recognized the quality. Works perfect, provides piece of mind, and everything you need is included. Previously bought JBJ but was disappointed due to lack of redundancy. This should be fail proof with dual sensor/float valve. Tunze ATO By Toby Flenderson on 2/23/2013 Toby Flenderson would recommend this product to a friend Pros: works perfectly, precisely, the German way. Cons: hard to fight off all the ladies who want to get there hands on my tunze. best topoff out there By chris on 2/18/2013 chris would recommend this product to a friend This topoff is the best there is. I replaced my jbj with this and am so glad I did. The optical sensor with a float is pretty much fail safe and my water level stays the same. Love it! By Joe on 2/13/2013 Joe would recommend this product to a friend I've never had an ATO system, but this unit is awesome! I had no problems setting it up. Sure, the instructions MIGHT be lacking a little, but I don't feel the complaints below are justified. The main sensor monitors the water level and activates the pump. The other one can be used as a safety shutoff/alarm OR as an alert that your ATO reservoir is empty. It's your choice!! I, personally, set it up in the latter form and the product works great. Terrible By Pissedreefer on 2/1/2013 Pissedreefer wouldn't recommend this product to a friend This product sucks end of story Perfect! By Calvin on 1/15/2013 Calvin would recommend this product to a friend after lugging around water for a few months i decided to get this along with a large storage container to relieve myself of water duties every morning. works great ! only have to top off the container once a week ! Once it's going it's great! By Terrie on 1/11/2013 Terrie would recommend this product to a friend I have to come back and review again only b/c I gave it a 3 getting frustrated with the set up. The instructions are more for someone familiar with ATO's..not me.. this is my very 1st one. I finally found a forum 3reef that someone had posted full details with pics and was able to get mine going. Had I had any knowledge at all about what I was doing this would have been a 5 minute setup! Now I know, it's done, wow it's simple!! It is not even letting and 1/8 of the water out before it tops it off... This I like!!! I pray for longevity for this price :) ??? By Terrie on 1/10/2013 Terrie would recommend this product to a friend I have to say I can't even give this item a rating yet. I received it a couple days ago and looked at it, put it back in the box and read the instructions. I took it out again and my head is spinning. Again today I took it out and my head is spinning. I'm trying to see the dark picture examples, I've read and read the instructions 10 times. For someone who has NEVER had an ATO of any type I chose this b/c of the good ratings and being BRS recommended. I figured I'd just spend the $ the first time instead of being someone who went less inexpensive and regretted it. However, like I said I've NEVER had an ATO of any type.... THIS THING NEEDS REAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLATION!! I don't know what the parts are called so reading the long drawn out instructions isn't helping, the pics are too dark, and I can't find anything on the web! Frustrated! Great until it failed By Guy on 1/8/2013 Guy wouldn't recommend this product to a friend My Tunze 3155 is almost 4 yrs old, but just recently failed. After a short while it stops working and the TOO HIGH led is on while the TOO LOW led is flashing. I have to cycle power to reset it but it faults again shortly after the reset, no matter if the water level is good ( green led on) or low. I communicated with Tunze and the controller needs to be replaced. I find it difficult to have to pay for a complete controller unit (including sesors) just to replace the controller. Very expensive, almost the price of a new 3155. Plus I find this is not a rare occurance - easy to find others with same issue on the web. A super nice unit when it works, just too expensive to my taste. COULD NOT LIVE WITHOUT IT!!! By Sherri on 1/8/2013 Sherri would recommend this product to a friend I have never owned an ATO, but this has to be one of the best. I have no complaints whatsoever. I would recommend to everyone who runs saltwater tanks. Worth every penny and would repurchase again if needed. It's worth the money... By gmastr85 on 1/6/2013 gmastr85 would recommend this product to a friend I can't compare this to other top off systems because this is my first, but I have zero complaints about this one. It comes with everything you need. The instructions are pretty easy to understand, and you can be setup and running fairly quickly. From opening the product to the small amount of assembling and reading the instructions, to filling your top off bucket and hooking the system up, you can be setup and running easily in under an hour. It even has a backup sensor on it incase the electric eye fails. You can't go wrong with this system. Pay the extra money and get this! Your system stability is well worth the price! Great Product By Robert on 12/30/2012 Robert would recommend this product to a friend I love this, water level and salinity stay at a constant, and the water level sensor is much more reliable then a float...

SYRACUSE Outstanding first halves could not manifest themselves in the second half Sunday, preventing the top-seeded South Jefferson and Carthage boys basketball teams to come up short of reaching their goals of winning a Section 3 championships.
South Jefferson built a double-digit, first-half edge, but wilted under the Skaneateles defensive pressure the second half and then had nothing left in overtime, falling 58-52 in the Class B semifinals at Onondaga Community Colleges SRC Arena.
Carthage, similarly, led the entire first half and took a three-point lead into intermission. But the Comets managed just five third-quarter points to fall behind and lose to New Hartford 57-43 in the Class A semifinals.
The top-seeded Spartans (18-2) opened a 34-23 halftime lead and did not yield the lead until the first minute of the overtime. Fred Piches club still had a chance to win in regulation, but could not execute when it counted.
After No. 4 Skaneateles (16-5) had rallied to tie the game at 47-47, South Jefferson had possession with 26 seconds left, including 20 on the shot clock.
Piche called a play in which center Jacob Worden received the inbounds pass and would try to hit fellow senior Tom Bassett cutting to the hoop. But when Bassett hesitated, Wordens pass sailed out of bounds.
I put the ball in my seniors hands, Piche said. I told Jake if the pass wasnt there, wed run the clock down and call another timeout.
Collin Jones of Skaneateles missed a wild 3-pointer with eight seconds left, and the Spartans had one last chance to win. But Wordens short baseline jumper went long.
I thought our best chance was to win in regulation, Piche said. They had all the momentum in overtime.
After a Jones free throw gave the Lakers their first lead of the game (48-47), William Beeses rebound hoop put the Spartans in the lead again.
But a big Austin Gardner tip-in after South Jefferson had played great defense for 35 seconds gave Skaneateles the lead for good.
Bassett, who was magnificent the first half with 19 points, then missed the front end of a 1-and-1.
Chris Knupp, who led Skaneateles with 21 points, converted an inside hoop to give the Lakers a three-point lead. After a missed South Jefferson 3-pointer, Bobby Leslie (14 points) drove for a hoop, and the Lakers iced it by making four straight free throws.
In the first half, South Jefferson ran its offense to perfection, using good spacing for easy shots to open as much as a 14-point lead. But the Skaneateles man-to-man defense toughened the second half, not allowing the Spartans anything easy.
We got going a little too fast, but they made us do that, Bassett said. Every time I moved, there were one of two guys waiting for me. They also made it tougher for us to get the ball inside to Jake.
Said Piche: They denied our passes to the wing, and made us start our offense six or seven feet farther out than we wanted.
Skaneateles coach Karl Norris said after what Bassett did to his club the first half, he had to make a change.
The second half we gave Alex (Brownlee) help every time Bassett got the ball, Norris said. We needed to make him see another defender.
Bassett managed just one hoop and a single free throw the second half. If they are going to let the bumping and grinding go, thats not in our favor, Piche said.
Worden finished with 14 points and Jordan Schloop 10 for the Spartans.
Skaneateles faces No. 2 Westhill, a 62-49 winner over Clinton, for the title on Sunday at the Carrier Dome in Syracuse.
When New Hartford extended its pressure defense to midcourt and beyond, the Comets didnt have an answer seeing their 16-game winning streak end.
We got a little tentative and didnt attack, and we let their pressure get to us, Carthage coach Jeff Ventiquattro said.
Sophomore Peyton McLaurin scored 12 first-half points and Carthage took a 27-24 lead on a Keyan Pinnock 3-pointer in the last minute.
But McLaurin was limited to one more basket, and the Comets didnt have an answer for the quickness of New Hartford twin guards Jared Henderson and Jordan Henderson. They combined for 35 points, hitting five 3-pointers, while penetrating Carthages zone.
They were quicker than anybody weve seen this year, said Walter Jeter (13 points). And then we backed off and let them hit some key threes when it was still a game.
Carthage went scoreless the first four minutes of the second half, and managed just two baskets and a free throw as New Hartford (17-3) surged into a 39-32 lead.
Jordan Hendersons three-point play to begin the final quarter, and a pair of big 3-pointers from Tom Clifford prevented the Comets from coming all the way back.
Its been a great run, Ventiquattro said. Now the kids coming back (four starters) know what it will take to make the next step.
New Hartford plays Bishop Ludden in the Class A title game.
Top-seeded Beaver River will play No. 2 Tully for the Class C-1 boys title at 7 p.m. Tuesday at Jefferson Community College. The winner will then play either Fabius-Pompey or Mohawk for the overall Class C crown on Sunday in the Carrier Dome.

Xavier wins exhibition opener over Quincy, 84-54
Updated: Saturday, November 2 2013, 09:05 PM EDT
CINCINNATI (WKRC) -- The Xavier men's basketball squad topped the Quincy Hawks 84-54 Saturday afternoon at Cintas Center. Four Musketeers scored in double figures to power their way past the Hawks.
Quincy jumped out to a 17-7 lead to start the game, but the Musketeers quickly responded. In a little under six minutes, the Musketeers went on an 18-0 run to take the lead. Xavier got four big points to keep a sizable lead with two breakaway dunks from sophomore Semaj Christon and senior Landen Amos. Freshman Jalen Reynolds also contributed with a huge block in the paint to maintain a 13-point lead.
The Musketeers went into the locker room with a 40-30 halftime lead. At the half, Myles Davis led Xavier with 12 points, nine of which came from three-point shots. The Musketeers ended the first-half shooting 51.7 percent (15-of-29), while the Hawks shot 33.3 percent (11-of-33). Quincy shot 46.7 percent (7-of-15) from long range while XU only shot 33.3 percent (3-of-9).
In the second half, Xavier continued to hold a sizable lead over Quincy. Myles Davis weaved through the Quincy defense and threw a quick pass to junior Matt Stainbrook for a two-handed dunk. Xavier did not relinquish the lead in the second half, finishing with a field goal percentage of 56.9 percent (33-of-58) and a three-point percentage of 23.5 (4-of-17). Quincy shot 30.4 percent (17-of-56) with a three-point percentage of 32 (8-of-25). The Musketeers won the rebounding battle over the Hawks, 44-30.
Stainbrook, Christon and Davis led the Musketeers to victory. Stainbrook made seven of his eight shots from the field to score 14 with nine rebounds. Christon had seven assists and five rebounds to go along with his 12 points, and made four of five from the charity stripe. Davis contributed in a big way, scoring 15, which included hitting three shots from beyond the arc. The freshman guard also added three assists and three rebounds.
Freshman Brandon Randolph was the fourth Musketeer with double figures as he added 11 points to go along with his four rebounds and two assists.
Jordan Wilson led the Hawks in points, scoring nine with four rebounds and three assists.

While the winter months will see us in thigh-high boots-or considering them, in the very least-such heavy-duty footwear can seem a little out of place when the weather is still changing. Luckily, the recent crop of killer ankle boots offers a forecast-and-figure-friendly way to cap off your autumnal look. Part tough-girl, part Western-cowgirl, the current generation of hardware-heavy booties can dramatically transform an outfit from casual to sexy. (Even better: they'll work with just about everything in your wardrobe, so you aren't forced to rethink all your existing staples!) Whether you want to juxtapose a multi-strap and studded version with a floral dress or decide to tuck your skinny jeans into a lace-up iteration, these boots are sure to add intrigue to your off-duty ensembles. However you decide to mix and match, you can't go wrong with this emerging essential that is so necessary, we gave it its own Top Five!
We first noticed the buckle boot on the trend horizon last October, when style-setters like Agyness Deyn opted for low-heeled semi-industrial versions to channel a more casual, motorcycle vibe. While said shoe still can be styled to add edge to understated looks, this fall the bootie ditched its low profile in favor of striking high heels and hardware galore. To track its evolution from flat to fabulous, we can look to Alexander Wang's and Isabel Marant's fall runway shows for inspiration. The former offers us an alluring template that translates to fashion-forward city style, while the latter's runway ensembles are markedly free-spirited but just as directional and in demand. No matter if you like dangerous leather looks (Wang) or a mixture of Parisian glamour and haute hippie panache (Marant), you've got a range of ways to style these bold booties.
If you're still unsure of how to walk a stylish mile in these shoes (har, har), take a cue from one of our favorite tastemakers with impeccable personal style. Sienna Miller was the perfect "real life" example of the heavy hardware trend when she filmed a TV segment for BET wearing Peter Pilotto's deep green patterned and draped dress with a studded pair of Marant's runway boots. Her on-screen outfit was the ideal balance of polish and cutting edge chic, a look that's certainly worth emulating!
Our boots du jour are already ubiquitous among the stylish set, but they're just as relevant for civilian life and are definitely worth purchasing. Not only are they very wearable, they'll also be a seamless addition to the items you already own. And although there are many offerings out there, we've done the filtering for you. After all, what good would our reporting do if we weren't able to present you with the absolute Top Five from which to pick your pleasure? Happy shopping!
1. Ash Impuls
Suede Booties with Buckled Straps ($217)
The first of our top-five booties offers a subtly referential nod to both the nineties and the Wild West, thanks to a healthy dose of silver studs and tips. The dark blue suede adds an unexpected richness to this shoe and ensures that the wearer can fashionably conquer any destination, from a red-carpet event to a Bryant Park show. All jet-setting aside, these booties are also surprisingly practical and offer an excellent example of a must-buy transitional shoe.
2. Vince Camuto Della Booties ($130)
While our last choice had us reminiscing about earlier decades and dreaming about wide-open places, these booties have us crossing the time-space continuum in a more Matrix-like way. These Vince Camuto shoes have strong architectural lines that evoke a futuristic feel akin to Balmain's Fall 09 collection, which showed peaked shoulders and glittery frocks with five-buckle boots. The sculpted buckle on this pair is, however, more in the style of Alexander Wang's Hanne Three Buckle Booties ($690), but drawing from two of the masters can only render these shoes completely on-trend.
3. Givenchy Shoes Open Toe Lace Up Booties
Although these boots were not featured on the runway, Givenchy's fall aesthetic still shines through. Riccardo Tisci, the fashion house's esteemed designer, styled his ladylike, sculptural suits and dresses with similar footwear styles and made these cocktail-hour looks more youthful. These booties can be used to execute a like-minded outfit, or just pair them with a short leather skirt for a more casual, yet still chic, ensemble. When it comes to these Givenchy boots, the possible permutations and combinations are quite numerous-which we feel makes them worth the investment price. It may seem egregious, but it's always important to have at least one incredibly stylish splurge a season. That idea is especially true when said lust-worthy piece references all the fall trends we love: hardware, lace-up, and even an alluring peep-toe.
4. Madison Harding Cyndi Boot ($352)
These next boots come courtesy of Madison Harding, a two-year old footwear line that has completely piqued our interest. Creative designers Hilary Rosenman and Barri Budin met in college while studying art and then moved to the East Village together to make their careers in the fashion industry. These ladies constantly draw upon the creative culture of their Lower East Side surroundings for inspiration and their effortlessly cool collection is worn by the likes of Leighton Meester and Lauren Conrad. This fall, Madison Harding created knee-high lace-up suede boots, studded leather heels, red suede wedges, and of course, our featured pick, the black leather and suede multi-buckle ankle boot. These boots have a seventies-inspired vintage charm that we love, while the luxe suede mixed with soft leather really does encompass the uptown-meets-downtown creed unique to this line.
5. Alexander Wang Hanne Three Buckle Booties ($720)
Born from the house of the tireless tastemaker Alexander Wang, these fearless buckle boots are as directional as the stylish Belgian model they are named after, Hanne Gaby Odiele. Said former
MOD is a known lover of lace-up peep-toe booties, so we're not surprised that Wang named his to-die-for boots after her! Like Odiele herself, this Top Five pick stands out in a crowd; the gray denim-style leather sets itself apart from the basic black, while the flashy silver buckles are powerfully chic. You can use these super-skinny heels to make your super-skinny pants directional; we recommend Wang's
($395) or try pulling on the boots with his
Cutout Dress
($650) for an equally stylish cocktail look.-Liza Kaplan

On September 28, 2000, the United States Food and Drug Administration approved mifepristone for sale in the United States for use to end early pregnancies (up to seven weeks after a missed menstrual period). In the approval notice, it was described as a "safe, effective, and non-invasive way" of ending a pregnancy. Known more commonly as RU-486, this pill is now the preferred form of abortion in at least fourteen countries, including Great Britain, Israel, and twelve others. It currently is marketed and available under the name Mifeprex in the United States, thanks to Chinese manufacturers. That's right—the country that strictly limits the number of children families can have, and that reports an estimated ten million abortions each year, was awarded a multibillion dollar trade deal to produce America's abortion pill. Mifepristone was first developed by a French pharmaceutical firm, and was approved for use in France in 1988. Since then, more than 620,000 European women have taken mifepristone, in combination with a prostaglandin, to terminate their pregnancies. [Is it mere coincidence that RU-486 was developed originally by a drug company whose parent corporation manufactured Zyklon B—the poison gas used in Nazi concentration camps to destroy millions of lives?]
Mifepristone is a synthetic steroid designed to interfere with the embryo's ability to adhere to the uterine lining. A pregnant woman is given three, 200-milligram pills by mouth. The drug interferes with the flow of blood and nutritional elements from the wall of the uterus to the developing embryo. Deprived of life support, the embryo dies. Returning to the doctor two days later, the woman takes two, 200-microgram pills of misoprostol (a prostaglandin that induces uterine contractions), and soon after aborts the embryo. [The woman remains in the physician's office for several hours of observation.] The prostaglandin, not the mifepristone, causes the most common side effects: vaginal bleeding, cramping, nausea, and diarrhea. The embryo may be expelled via blood clots either during the observation period or later at home or at work, but almost always is aborted within fourteen days of the treatment regimen. Women are required to return for a follow-up visit approximately fourteen days after taking the mifepristone to determine whether the pregnancy has been terminated. An RU-486 abortion costs approximately $300 (about the same as a surgical abortion) according to Advances in Health Technology, Inc., a Washington, D.C., company established to market the pill.
Misoprostol (sold under the name Arthrotec) induces uterine contractions, but was developed originally to fight arthritis. The first line in the 2001 edition of the Physician's Desk Reference regarding Arthrotec reads: "Contraindications and Warnings: Arthrotec, because of the abortifacient property of the misoprostol component, is contraindicated in women who are pregnant" (p. 2977) The warning goes on to state that "Arthrotec should not be used in women of childbearing potential…" (p. 2977). And yet this arthritis drug is part of the deadly cocktail given to women who want a "non-surgical" abortion.
While the FDA has given its "stamp of approval," the words "safe" and "effective" hardly are words that would be used to describe this procedure. The following list of "drawbacks" was taken from a Planned Parenthood (pro-abortion) Website.
The possible drawbacks:
Additionally, the "abortion pill" now can be prescribed by almost any licensed doctor or nurse-practitioner (currently most "regular" doctors and nurse-practitioners cannot perform surgical abortions). In communities that do not have an abortion clinic, women often have to travel great distances for a surgical abortion, so "pro-choice" individuals view this increased availability as a victory. With the abortion pill, they may be able to obtain a non-surgical abortion from a local provider. This means that while your child's sore throat is being cared for in exam room 1 at your family practitioner's office, an abortion may be taking place next door in exam room 2!
Now that RU-486 has received FDA approval (and big profits are being forecast), competitors are looking for substances that produce the same effects. Methotrexate is a prescription drug that was developed in the fight against cancer. Used in combination with misoprostol, it also causes an abortion. As with RU-486, a methotrexate abortion requires three visits to a clinic or doctor's office. During the first visit, methotrexate is given in the form of a shot. Then, a week later during a second clinic visit, the misoprostol is administered as a pill or in suppository form (the suppository is a capsule that is inserted deep inside the vagina, where it dissolves). After this, the uterus contracts and the baby is expelled. A third visit to the clinic is necessary to confirm that an abortion has taken place. If a complete abortion has not occurred (which happens in about four percent of the cases), the woman then must have a surgical abortion to prevent the development of a damaged fetus (and related problems). Currently the FDA has approved methotrexate for use as a cancer treatment. It is widely available in the United States, but not all health-care providers are willing to use it for abortions. This procedure is still relatively new and extremely controversial.
While many women are quick to celebrate the legality of RU-486 as a means of getting women "out of the stirrups" and "into their own homes," it does not change the fact that both surgical and non-surgical procedures end a baby's life. Whether by pill or curette, innocent lives are being extinguished. Embryos are living human beings! According to Paul Marx, the United Nations estimates that there are some 55 million abortions performed annually throughout the world (Abortion International, n.d., p. 1). On January 22, 1973, the nine justices that form the Supreme Court of the United States voted (in a seven-to-two decision) to allow abortion as a legal method of destroying unwanted babies. Subsequent to that edict, the Centers for Disease Control in Atlanta, Georgia, reported the number of infants slain by abortion to be approximately 1.5 million each year—more than all the American lives lost in the almost 200 years of wars since our country's inception. In fact, in the unpopular 11-year Vietnam war, over 58,000 Americans lost their lives, yet this country's medical profession, via abortion, kills more than that in any given 11 days!
If a person shoots an eagle—the symbol of our country—the judicial system will throw him in prison and toss away the key. That same system will stop a multi-million dollar dam in the state of Tennessee to save an inch-long snail-darter fish, or fly the President of the United States to the northwest sector of America to discuss the fate of a spotted owl. Yet should someone wish to destroy the human baby growing inside the mother's womb, such an act will be looked upon not only as entirely within that person's rights as an American citizen, but as perfectly legal.
It sometimes is suggested that abortion does not constitute taking human life. To those who offer such a suggestion we ask: What is growing in the mother's womb? It is the result of the union of the human male sperm and human female egg—which guarantees its "humanness." And there can be no doubt that it is alive; if it is not, then leave it alone! "Oh, but we cannot do that," abortionists argue. Why not? Because in nine months the result will be a living, human child! Abortion—all the disclaimers of its proponents notwithstanding—is the cold-blooded murder of a God-given life. And no rhetoric on the part of pro-abortion forces ever can change that fact.
While the U.S. Supreme Court outlawed the death penalty for hardened criminals, it simultaneously imposed that same penalty upon multiplied millions who never had committed a single crime. Their only "crime" was that they were not "perfect," or that they threatened to arrive at an "inconvenient" time. These tiny infants, still in the womb, are murdered by techniques more cruel, more vicious, and more inhumane than any thus far devised by even Hollywood's worst gut-wrenching horror movies. These deaths occur in abortion clinics, doctors' offices, and hospitals around the world. The conspirators in this atrocity include potential mothers, consenting doctors, whining advocates of "planned parenthood," and approving judges. We lead western civilization in many areas, yet we have come to the point where life is so cheap that hospitals have been turned into slaughter houses, doctors have been turned into butchers, and our own children have been turned into "blobs of tissue" to be excised and unceremoniously dumped in the local landfill. We abhor from a distance the unspeakable crimes of Adolf Hitler as he murdered six million Jewish men, women, and children. Yet in our own land we snuff out the lives of countless millions far more defenseless than they. The announcement of an unwanted pregnancy, or one that likely will produce a less-than-perfect child, often is met with sheer hysteria. Years of having been taught evolution as a fact have taken their toll. Convinced that man is nothing but a "naked ape," the value of human life has diminished. After all, they shoot horses, don't they? And now the violence spawned by such thinking has reached even into the womb itself in what must be one of the most despicable of all acts—murder of the helpless!
Abortion is a violation of biblical morality, and should be opposed by every faithful child of God. The Proverbs writer stated: "There are six things which Jehovah hateth; Yea, seven which are an abomination unto Him; haughty eyes, a lying tongue, And hands that shed innocent blood" (6:16-17, emp. added). What blood could be more innocent than that of a tiny infant not yet fresh from the womb?

"Majestic listening"
Majestic!! I have for many years wanted to go through the scriptures but due to limited eyesight I had all but given up!! Michael York's reading is beyond anything I expected. The music in the background makes it so much more powerful! I listen to it as I go to sleep at night! Pour yourself a cup of tea, sit back in a comfortable chair and prepare to be transported to another place and another time. What a value for one credit!! I am a believer in audible.com! Thank you!!
"A bargain for one credit"
First, the good: This is a terrific bargain for a single credit. For readability, I have most recently relied either upon the NIV or New Living Translations, but I was pleased with the NKJV translation. It is accurate and easily understandable; this translation was suited perfectly for an Audio book. The readers were outstanding, and there was just enough dramatization, music and background effects to keep the stories moving without being annoying or overly-distracting. The sound quality was flawless.
Now, the bad: As other reviewers have detailed, dividing the Bible into 17 tracks is puzzling. Finding any particular passage is laborious and frustrating.
If you are seeking an Audio presentation of the Bible to listen to and experience a cover-to-cover read, you will find this production very much to your liking. If, on the other hand, you are looking for an Audio Bible to add to your library to listen to various individual scriptures, this format is not well suited for such an endeavor; other audio renditions may be more navigable for such a purpose.
"Amazing Narration! Impossible to Navigate!"
This version of the Bible is the best audio version I have ever heard hands down. This one is treated, almost, like a normal book, but with small (tasteful) sound effects and music. Other versions I have heard either have a terrible narrator or the sound effects and music is so triumphal and overdone it drowns out the Bible it self. Michael York does a fantastic job as the primary narrator. The only gripe is that it is hard to navigate. The books not separated, some seem to be split down the middle and then other books are bundled together. The math says it all about this 66 books only 17 parts. 66 books 66 parts would be easier for a book like the Bible. A normal book split in to chapters would be ridiculous, but Bible readers want to hear a certain book not have to go hunting. Again, just fantastic the first useable audio version of the Bible I have ever used.
"Amazing production word-for-word and get Enhanced!"
Without a doubt, get over any bias you have with your favorite bible translation, and get this! Download the enhanced format (64kbps/22kHz) stereo production and use a good set of earphones/earbuds and hold on! This brings to life what it was like to be there when each book was written. No additional wording, no additional explanations, just word-for-word NKJV bible! I am through to 2nd Samuel and can't wait to turn it on again and continue reading. Use this in the off times when you can't read the Book, like in the car, around the house, at lunch time. You will enjoy this. Keep on reading!
This presentation is EXCELLENT!! I onlly wish the enhanced version didint take up so much space so - I could bring it with me on my ipod.
I would like to share it with other people....hopefully I can burn it to a DVD(s)
"God is so revealed in His sovereigntry & intimacy"
I have been listening to this audio Bible and it is so superb. I love the Amplified Bible but this is entirely different in that it is dramatized, and very professionally done. It is like listening to a motion picture audio. They have captured the essence of each book, of each chapter, with the voice and music bringing you into it and revealing what God is saying in a way that no other dramatized version has done. I have others. When he says, "In the beginning God created...," the enunciation of the text with the orchestra makes it seem as if we know the significance of the event. I got it for the Old Testament because it is harder to be attentive to some passages, while the Amplified Bible brings out meaning in devotional passages where it is easier to connect with God. As I listened through it, I gained a greater respect for God. I saw humanity and the world as not just under His control, but He created everything and has a purpose. The scene where Cain is telling God that because of the punishment on him, that anyone who comes upon him will kill him, God seems so manifested. God established that if they did their punishment would be 7 times greater. The way it was conveyed was so real, I began talking to God as to His mercy there, and He said, no, justice. When it comes to the flood and then the animal sacrifices after leaving Egypt, it is grievous because God is such a wonderful Father, and no one was getting it. They were carnal and in the flesh and totally unaware that God is what is desirable, not the forbidden fruit and the other distractions. I felt so intimate with God because of it. The Psalms are amazingly intimate. The narrator of the Psalms has a voice with a touch of rasp that sounds melodiously beautiful and intimate with God. It is a blessing. Wow is a good brief description for the overall impact. Everyone should hear it, as it will bless every part of your life as you see God's ability and love to give you life abundant.
"Very Good."
I'm quite pleased with the quality and eloquence with which this audio Bible is put together. The NKJV, which is probably one of the most accurate and thorough translations, comes to life in this convincing - but not overdone - dramatization. The narrator does an excellent job, as well, with clear pronunciation and a good feel for the text. He may not be quite as strong as he should be, but better that than too dramatic. Over all a very good work, and I highly recommend it.
"Great Compilation, Lackluster Sound !uality"
By far the best dramatized audio bible released in recent years. Unfortunately the sound quality on audible pales in comparison to the actual disks.
One thing I was really dissapointed in was the Psalms. The presentation of the Psalms in this recording is far too dark and serrious, making even psalms of praise and joy leave the listener with a disturbing impression. I'm not sure if it's available on audible, but the Faith Comes by Hearing dramatized NIV presentation of the psalms is much better, providing a full range of emotions rather than the somewhat self righteous and vindictive undertones prevalent throughout this presentation. Outside of the Psalms, I loved almost everything else.
This is an incredible deal, one credit for a few thousand pages worth of inspiration. The background music does get old after 90 hours but I do think it enhances the experience overall. Some would complain about the translation NKJV vs KJV vs NIV VS NLT etc. but just face it, no translation is perfect, even the originals aren't perfect, there are minor differences among the thousands of Greek and Hebrew manuscripts we translate from. The NKJV keeps the grace of the KJV while making the language more accessible to the modern listener, thus it was a good choice for this recording.
"Great recording, not so great translation"
The Word of Promise is a stunning production. On the basis of the production values alone, it easily deserves five stars or even more. The acting, music, and sound effects are all superb -- often achieving "movie quality" as claimed -- and it sounds terrific in Audible's enhanced format. The books are broken down into meaningful chunks of files with lots of bookmarks for navigation. Of particular note, among the books I've listened to so far, are Michael York as narrator, Stacy Keach as Job, Gary Sinise as David, and Martin Jarvis as the voice of God. (Portions of the New Testament have been re-recorded with Martin Jarvis in this role, replacing the original performance by Terence Stamp. It may have simply been for consistency, but it's a welcome change; Jarvis's performance is much stronger.)
Why not five stars, then? Because of the translation. The more I hear the NKJV, the less I like it. Whatever its other merits as a study text, it doesn't lend itself well to immediate comprehension in an audio setting. While the text has been modernized to some extent, there are still many archaic sentence structures, many familiar words used in archaic (and therefore unfamiliar) senses, and many personal pronouns that lack clear referents. In narrative books and in the Psalms, it works well; likewise if you're already deeply familiar with a particular passage or book. But it's just not an ideal choice for an initial exploration of difficult or unfamiliar books. The prophets fare particularly badly in this respect, and to a lesser extent so do several of Paul's letters. I often found myself reaching for another translation to make sense of what I just heard.
Of course, without the NKJV and the support of Thomas Nelson, the Word of Promise probably wouldn't exist at all. But it does mean you need to carefully gauge what you want out of an audio Bible and whether this particular one is a good fit.
"Beautiful WORDS"
Thomas Nelson, Jim Caviezel and all the actors associated with this work have brought the Bible to life in a new way. The sounds and words become visible. Excellent job!
"Audio gold"
For the money, and for the benefit, nothing can beat this superb rendition. Brits nervous of the sound of American voices are soothed by Michael York's melifluous tones as the Narrator, and Malcolm McDowell as God the Father - reassuring once again that God is an Englishman ;-). It is also a joy to hear familiar American stars with their rich and varied timbres.
Readers jaded or defeated by the printed page have the words of life reinvigorated. Long-held goals to read end-to-end can now be achieved and a full perspective on the span and comprehensiveness of scripture is gained.
I agree that the addition of a referenced search facility would be wonderful, but the characterisations and humanity of the voices more than compensate for this. God's Word was mediated by human vessels and this feature of the Bible - its particular authenticity - is drawn out for those who have ears to hear.
"incredible value"
i have put this on my kindle and it's amazing! well done audible.
"NKJV Word of Promise:"
Superb rendition. Great balance of dramatic interpretation without compromising the purity of the text.
"Excellent Buy"
I loved the download version so much I went out and bought the CD's just to make sure I have hard copies as well as the MP3.
The dramatised versions brings the Bible alive and makes its very exciting.
I am very satisified with Audible so far and look forward to purchasing more material
"Enjoyed every minute of it."
Close your eyes,relax and listen to the deep wisdom of this book in superb audio quality.
"An Amazing Achievement"
An Amazing Achievement in the audio portrayal of the Bible. This presentation features fantastic voice acting by the various actors in this masterpiece. The music and the background audio in the audio book are also excellent in my opinion. The Audio Book manages to create an atmosphere which contributes to the overall wonderful feeling of listening to this work of art. This is in my opinion one of the best Audio Bibles ever made.
"Film quality entertainment"
The bible turned into a captivating drama production complete with everything as if sitting in a great movie. Great sound effects naturally stimulate your equally greater imagination projecting movie quality pictures onto the screen of your mind as when listening to a great radio production. In all, inspiring, entertaining, greatly recommended and a wholesome uplifting experience bringing the whole bible alive and listened to anywhere as when otherwise impossible to read if driving, walking, working etc.
"Well, it's the bible...!"
I've always been interested in the Bible but, despite having had many, never read it before.
It's excellent value - 98 hours of audio for 1 credit!
I know it's sacrilegious to say it, but it really could be condensed quite a bit. Yes, I know it is unabridged...
It's good to hear all the familiar stories!
You're kidding, right? 98 hours in one sitting? It's taken a couple of months at 2 hours per working day.
I would never have read the paper version, this worked for me.
"Makes it real"
Anybody who always wished they had read the bible, but can never find time, can now listen on their drive to work, or whenever is convenient. Seeing the whole book, rather than the edited highlights presented at bible class or in church, really opens the work up to self study.
The quality of this audiobook, together with special effects and music really brings home the absurdity of this work. The perceived authority given to scripture in its written form is stripped away when presented in such a familiar way, and this should be applauded.
My only real criticism is that the indexing should have been more bible based, allowing readers to search using biblical references. Otherwise, excellent.
"Better by far"
Well I was surprised. This is an excellent product. Sound effects, goo music and yes acting is good and by famous persons.

Hi guys. There are a few programming questions that i have. I'm going to ask these questions because i'm going to go to college really soon and get a degree in Computer Science. What is the difference in the following??
Object-Oriented Programming with C++
Programming with Visual Basic
Programming with Java
What is the difference and what OS's are they used on?? It does'nt matter wheter you tell me this course is not for me because i think i will enjoy it. I'm good in math and it's in the mathematics department. Please reply back with some help. Thanks guys.
What do you mean?? I ask a simple question. What is the difference between those programming and what OS's are they used on?? Redhead i have no clue what you said. Can someone else please read over my previous post and answer the question for me?? Please reply back. Thanks.
First of all, I am not a programmer. But, I have dabbled a little bit. So, I may answer your questions a bit incorrectly. If so, please correct me guys.
Java...this language is similar to C (C++ is related to C as well). It tends to be cpu/OS agnostic, unless you compile the bytecode to run natively (instead of using the more typical virtual machine). The virtual machine simply interprets the Java bytecode and translates it into something that Sun Solaris on a Sparc or MacOS X on PPC or Windows on x86 can understand. Thus, you write your bytecode once, but it can run on just about anything that has a proper VM. It is a matter of "write once, run everywhere". The beauty of this language seems to be that if you are familiar with C or C++, you should be able to pick up Java fairly quickly and the reverse should be true, as well.
VisualBasic is a Microsoft program that I believe only allows you to program for Windows.
Can't answer the first question.
Secondly, redhead provided you with links to some good information. Try to take the time to read the tutorials through. I'm sure that they will provide you with some great info.
I think that RedHead's links answer those questions, if you care to read them.
Visual Basic is a Windows application development plataform, as far as I know.
Java is OS independent, so an application coded in Java could run in any OS that has java support, including some cell phones.
object-oriented programming
A type of programming in which programmers define not only the data type of a data structure, but also the types of operations (functions) that can be applied to the data structure. In this way, the data structure becomes an object that includes both data and functions. In addition, programmers can create relationships between one object and another. For example, objects can inherit characteristics from other objects.
To build on what others have said ...
[warning: Confusing am I. Yes?]
Object-Oriented Programming with C++
Object-Oriented Programming (refered to as OO or OO Programming) is exactly as trickster said. Here is a plain english example ...
Class: Bike
Variables: Wheel1, Wheel2, Body, StiringWheel
Methods: Forward, Backward, Stop, Turn, Wreck
Using the above information we can make a Huff class by extending the above.
Class: Huffy
Extends: Bike
Variables: CheapPaint, CrotchBar
Methods: Break
The Huffy class, because it extends the Bike class, gets all the methods and variables from the Bike class. These classes are just blueprints for objects. Now that we know how to make Huffies we can make them.
Huffy MyHuffy = new::Huffy;
Huffy YourHuffy = new::Huffy;
Now we have two Objects, YourHuffy and MyHuffy.
I wrecked into you. The basic idea in OO is that it is eaiser to imagine objects and work with them than it is to work with functions all the time.
Programming with Visual Basic
Visual Basic is a Windows only application scripting language similar to AppleScript or TCL/Tk.
Programming with Java
Java is an OO Language that is compiled into bytecode alowing it to be run on any machine that has a Java Runtime Environment (JRE). I could write a application using Java with my Linux box, compile it, and run it on my Apple or Windows boxes.
lol, nice example Ashcrow.
Yeah what they all said was true, except, I know VB, so I might as well give you some info.
VB is VERY powerful for Windows Platforms, and is RAD (Rapid Application Development) since you drag and drop objects, labels, buttons, etc and then code stuff about those buttons, labels, etc. However, VB is high level (meaning it has to go through a lot of instructions to get down to the microprocessor) which makes it slower than C/C++.
Java - they explained it - I have no comments
OOP C/C++ - No comments
[quote author=dsantamassino link=board=9;threadid=7324;start=0#67511 date=1057190326]Redhead i have no clue what you said. Can someone else please read over my previous post and answer the question for me?? Please reply back. Thanks.
Sorry if I was a bit lagging in info, but as you all might noticed lately I havn't had the time to be as elaborate as some of you might want over the past week .. eh... month.. eh.. did a year just go by? But on the other hand, I finished my PhD on may 25th.
I think the others have answered your question to the fullest, but to sum it up.
Object oriented, create an object which holds the possible actions/data it can perform/require inside of it, if you have another object needing kinda the same actions, derive them from the first object and overwrite/alter the parts that needs to, in order to fit the new object.
C++ is a further development of C, with the possibility to have objects, it provides you with the choice to use native C calls where you can get down and dirty in direct connection to the hardware, but if you're not as interested in shooting your self in the foot, you can chose to use classes (objects) and blow your whole leg of in one swift move.
C/C++ is system dependent, which means one binary compiled on one OS will not run under another one, but if you keep it ANSI, then you will be able to move the source code around and compile on varius OS's.
A C/C++ like (inspired?) language, which runs as bit code on a runtime library. It gives you the ability to move the binaries around, since the system dependent parts are hidden in the runtime library, and the bit code only knows about a well known instruction set it can talk to the runtime library with ie
System.print("hello world"
How ever this comes with a small cost regarding to the execution time compared to a system specific compilation/uptimization. But who cares in these days, when you have a Thunderbird 2100+ (or what ever the race in cpu power is at, at this point in time)
Visual Basic
Something microshaft thought of, as the new thing to take over the world as the leading programming language. It integrates well with the microsoft OS, but thats just about it, orriginaly build on Basic, with the "what you see is what you created" drag and drop interface.
But creating realtime programs under it is close to impossible, but hey realtime and MS, do they even go together in any form ??
Sorry again if I've upset anyone with my brute force of nature, but thats just me.
- So take it or leave it.
I really have nothing to add to the discussion because everyone else have pretty much answered it. I just wanted to say Congrats on the PhD redhead. Good Going

COLTON South Colton resident Kirk H. Robideau has requested permission to complete road maintenance work at a Route 56 property owned by the town and, while the Town Council wasnt quite ready to grant him approval to move forward with the project at a recent meeting, his plan did not meet with opposition.
A resident of Sugar Bush Lane, Mr. Robideau is asking to perform work at 3925 Route 56.
I would like to fix that up. That road comes down through to the town property roughly about 30 to 40 feet. The driveway comes onto the towns property, he said. Id like to get permission to fix that road up to make it look better, for one thing.
According to Councilwoman Katheryn Hayes, the area is town property that was given to the municipality by a resident in the past and used to be the site of a church. She said the area has not been used for quite some time, and the town would like to expand the location into a parking lot for the soccer field or community center.
We intend to extend that area eventually; were just waiting for the town supervisor to come back, Ms. Hayes said.
Mr. Robideau also noted there had been discussions about installing a parking lot for the community center at the location.
However, with concerns over the possibility of people parking on both sides of the road, along with cars traveling on Sugar Bush Lane, the plan never moved forward.
If they do do that, I would pay for the materials to incorporate that driveway so it looks the same, Mr. Robideau said. I just want it to all kind of look the same, squared off. So thats just kind of where Im at with that.
Ms. Hayes, who ran the meeting in Supervisor Dennis B. Bulgers absence, said Highway Superintendent Kevin S. Hawley made her aware of Mr. Robideaus interest in the project.
Kevin mentioned to me that you had talked to him about it and he would be supportive of trying to get the parking area put in with the understanding that if you use part of it as a driveway, it would just have to be so that you understood that, if theres something going on, theres going to be a problem with using that part of the driveway, probably, she said. Other than that, I think that hes supportive of the idea. I think were eventually going to need that parking area anyway.

E. Razer's head?
I'm just kidding. It's that bad?
The film's title comes from a dream sequence occurring during the last half hour of the film. In it, Henry's head detaches from his body, sinks into a growing pool of blood on a tile floor, falls from the sky, and, finally, lands on an empty street and cracks open. A young boy (Thomas Coulson) finds Henry's broken head and takes it to a pencil factory, where Paul (Darwin Joston), the desk clerk, summons his ill-tempered boss (Neil Moran) to the front desk by repeatedly pushing a buzzer. The boss, angered by the summons, yells at Paul, but regains his composure when he sees what the little boy has brought. The boss and the boy carry the head to a back room where the Pencil Machine Operator (Hal Landon, Jr.) takes a core sample of Henry's brain, assays it, and determines that it is a serviceable material for pencil erasers. The boy is then paid for bringing in Henry's head. The Pencil Machine Operator then sweeps the eraser shavings off of the desk and sends them billowing into the air.

The Salt Lake Tribune did a great front page article the other day on PERKIE Travels. For those of you who don't know what that is, it is a free shuttle that goes daily to Provo for cancer patients who need radiation treatment. The article minimized the local efforts that make this service possible. This service is one that showcases the collaborative efforts that Carbon and Emery counties are so great at.
PERKIE Travels, through the efforts of Lisa Martinez and Nancy Bentley, is a cooperative effort using the vans of Active Re-Entry, Four Corners Mental Health, Emery County Senior Center and Emery County RSVP. Those agencies donate the use of their vans one to two days a week. They also provide the gas, insurance and maintenance of the vehicles. A grant pays for the cost of a driver on a daily basis. Several other agencies have been involved through the years to keep the program running. Both Carbon County Housing Authority and the Food Bank loaned their vans to the program for several years.
PERKIE is only one of many examples of this community working together. When I was employed by the county and would go to state meetings and listen to other communities talk about their problems as well as turf wars in trying to solve them, I was astounded.
It's true, things don't always go as smooth here as we would like, but as I would relate the programs we have in this community to others in those meetings and how we worked together to get them going, those from upstate would be jealous.
The Family Support Center often would have people referred to them because other agencies were not sure where to send them. Many times the Family Support Center would then have to send them some where else. To help the customers as well as the agencies out, the Family Support Center put a small resource guide together. It outlines what the different agencies can help with. It was a great hit because it helped people get to the right resources without a run around. The Family Support Center didn't have the funds to print the guide, but put the effort in to put it together. The Division of Child and Family Service, Head Start, Child Care Resource and Referral all assisted with funding to print and then later reprint the guide.
Example after example of groups working together are abundant in our community. Volunteer groups like RSVP, the SUN Center and the United Way Volunteer Center assure a great source of help and energy. The Elks, Clampers, Soroptimist, WAIME and other service clubs are invaluable to working together. As agencies and service groups they also continue to go to local businesses again and again for help in fundraising efforts. Importantly, they never come up dry.
I have worked on the darker side of this community and have seen some of the bad. I think the community will continue to use collaborative efforts to solve those problems too. The work on the drug court is a prime example of agencies pulling dwindling resources together to solve a problem. Federal and state money is sometimes slow to come to our area because we do not have a large population.
So let's celebrate this community. For what we lack in population and other big city amenities, we make up for with heart and spirit.

Over the years most of us get a little jaded about graduations. I mean we have either seen so many of them that they are just another event, or the only one we really remember is ours, and we were just so wanting to get through it that it became a rather unpleasant experience.
Taking in USU Eastern and Pinnacle Canyon High School graduations that have already happened and combining them with Lighthouse/adult student and Carbon High graduation coming this week, it would be easy to get rather surly about them. I imagine there are a few people who have in their family relatives are involved in all of these events.
But we all need to remember how special that time is for the graduates. I have to say the graduations I have participated in as a student in my life have long gone by the wayside. At the time they took place, graduations were almost the most important thing in my life.
What we need to keep in mind is that even if the graduation line is long, the speakers are boring and the seats are hard, it is all for a very good cause. Those people with the funny hats that are going to walk the line have put a lot of effort into getting where they are. It is true that some have just skipped all the way to graduation, but many had to really work for it.
Just think about your own school years. Remember how long it took from 3:15 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. on those long hot fall afternoons you spent sitting in your third grade class at your desk. It seemed the bell would never ring. For me it was really torture. I wanted to be outside doing stuff, not listening to my teacher read Tom Sawyer to us.
Then there was the homework. True , once you start your work life homework can be pretty heavy too. I bring stuff home to do all the time. But remember sitting at a card table in your mom and dad's living room trying to do algebra while the television was going and something you wanted to watch was on.
Or how about diagramming complex sentences (something I don't think they teach anymore) on a Sunday evening (you didn't do it on Friday night like you should have) so you could have it ready for Monday morning's English class.
Or how about reading one of the "classics" in bed late into the evening for school the next day when you would have rather been reading a Spiderman or Fantastic Four comic book.
And remember, if you were a good student, there was real reward in getting high scores on flash spelling tests or pop quizzes in history. If you weren't, the only reward came when the test was over and you got out of class for the day.
Students work hard (or they should). We should all respect that. Sometimes their antics seem juvenile (even with 18+ year old college students) but remember there is only one time in their life they can be what they are now.
For me school was very rewarding. I liked school and worked hard to get good grades despite a brain that only worked part of the time (as it obviously does now).
Graduation is a time of celebration and new beginnings, not the end of things. Okay, I know that sounds too much like a graduation speech, but it's true.
It's been over four decades since I graduated from high school, and to be honest, I can't remember a thing about it. I actually remember the graduation practice better than I do the actual ceremony. I might have remembered it better if a President or the Queen of England had spoken there, but I can't name one person who said a word from the podium.
Many who have graduated from our schools here and will graduate this next week will be the same. They are looking to the future, not to what they have done in the past. I know that is where my mind was. I was looking forward to the freedom of not having to ever go to school again if I didn't want to, but on the other hand knowing the responsibility of going on was absolutely mandatory.
So give these students, regardless of their age, a pat on the back. Tell them you are proud of them, and most of all show it to them by giving them your support as they move into their futures.
And let that graduation you attend, put a little tear in your eye. Whether you are 30 or 70, you know what these graduates will be facing. They will have joys and they will have lows in the coming years. Each of you have had yours too.
Give them a chance, for a moment, to bask in the glow of accomplishment.

Date Climbed: May 25, 2005
|June 24-25, 2006
Met up with the Denyers and Chris & Shauna and did some climbing in the sweltering heat.
Canary (5.9) Classic on Castle Rock, the first pitch was hard to get around the roof to Saber ledge with little pro.
Damnation Crack (5.9) The start was wide to get a good jam, the top part is mainly a wide chimney, use little crack on the faces, kind of scary.
Saints (5.8+) Did the first pitch to top rope Angel Crack. The crack is thin fingers for me, sweating in the heat made it also harder.
Angel Crack (5.10b) Polished, can't get any foot, fingers were not very secure either
Next day went to Clem's Holler area
Playin Possum (5.8) Did the first pitch, look for the hidden hold before the third bolt.
Nettlesome (5.9) Slab with one slippery section
Honky's Lament (5.8) Only trad in the area, nice flake, dirty start.
Gun Rack (5.9) Well protected fun roof move if you get a good finger lock in the left cracks. My feet were boiling from heat on the second pitch...
May 13-14, 2006
Met up with bunch friends celebrate Martin's birthday and do some climbing together. Good times!
Dogleg Crack (5.8+) Slippery crux but otherwise nice route
Meat Grinder (5.10a) Tough, overhanging, good hand jams higher up, use the #3 camalot.
Z-Crack (5.10c) TRed, hard to get of the ground
Classic Crack (5.9) Sweet hand crack, too short
Heart Of Gold (5.10a) 4P mostly slab/face climbing on Duty Dome, fun route. Climbed as two twosome with Radek/Shirley and Martin. The 10a slab was sustained all the way.
Poison Ivy Crack (5.9) Fun little corner crack and a stem move out and left of the roof.
July 9, 2005
Took a gamble to avoid the bad weather everywhere else and it could not be better. Leavenworth is always fun, climbed with Jim the following:
Givler's Crack (2P, 5.8) Very nice route, wish was longer
Rare Earth (5.10a) Friction, no holds whatsoever
Fit 'N Trim (2P, 5.8+) Didn't feel like 5.8.
An unknown crack between Givler's Dome and Mastadon Roof was hard, had to aid it as my left shoe's toe box came apart ...
Feeling good and strong so are we off to Orbit on Snow Creek Wall on Sunday.

|Route Climbed: Various Date Climbed: July 9, 2005
|Fun weekend of Leavenworth climbing to escape the rainy (in July???) Northwest forecast.
Givler's Crack (2P, 5.8): Great route, but too short!
Rare Earth (5.10a): Friction (the F word) is not my thing ...
Fit 'N Trim (2P, 5.8+): Definitely easier than 5.8.
Something in between Givler's Dome and Mastadon Roof. Slightly overhanging crack. Can't find it in any book ... felt like 5.9?

|Great place to climb and I have barely scratched the surface. Mostly stuck to the Clamshell(?) area. I will definitely be coming back for more.
|Posted Jun 17, 2005 1:17 am
|Route Climbed: Careno crag, Givlers, 8mile (not eminem), Some big old rocks 'round there. Date Climbed: Mid to Late 90's, early 00's
|I've got to look up my old guidebook and see what routes I've done. Some of the best granite around, lots of fun wandering to do. We once camped there for about a week, just cragging and keeping our toes cool in the river until we finally got a permit to go into the Enchantments.

|Enjoyed Givler's; had a memorable experience on R&D. Got the local's dsicount at the BK after some name dropping once.
|Posted Mar 13, 2005 9:34 pm

"I'll give you the inside track on the fast-paced world of high-end interior residential renovations," said Fanuka, whose company, Fankuka Inc., began 17 years ago in College Point and is now located on 56th Avenue in Maspeth. "With 'Million Dollar Contractor,' I'll show you the way the best designers, architects and vendors think outside the box while giving you the know-how to do it yourself or hire the right contractor. Your home is your castle, and I'll show you how to treat it like one."
"I worked hard at being the go-to guy for the best clients in the world and eventually the name ['Contractor to the Stars'] just came about. You have to earn that title. You can't aspire to it." said Fanuka.
During each episode, Fanuka takes his clients' "wish list" and turns them into reality. He will turn a $10 million, three-bedroom penthouse in Manhattan's West Village into a bachelor pad with a 700-pound walnut pivot door to change the shape and flow of the condo.
The show will also include an apartment on the Upper East Side, featuring handmade Venetian plaster moldings, custom pocket doors, Fanuka's trademark custom cabinetry, Thassos pure white marble and LED hallway lights.
"The premise of the show is that the 'Million Dollar Contractor' isn't all about money. It's about the million dollar look. We all deserve the million dollar look and now you will know how to have it in your home," said Fanuka.
Although his clients differ in tastes and styles, they all have one thing in common – they expect the transformation to be perfect. Although it's not always smooth, Fanuka pulls out all the stops to create the kind of end result that satisfies even the toughest critics.
"There are no scripts [in the show] and we give it to you like it is real time and real life. All those magazine photos of beautiful homes and rooms always credit the interior designer and architect. Now it's time to salute the men and contractors that make it a reality," said Fanuka.

As one old enough to recall the character assassinations directed towards President Franklin D. Roosevelt and his administration during the 1930s I see the same snide, crude remarks being made today against President Barack Obama.
President Roosevelt, who gave us Social Security, collective bargaining for labor, the repeal of prohibition, Works Projects Administration (WPA) to put the unemployed back to work, the CCC's to give young men a new outlook on life and much more.
Yet he was the object of crude jokes, a socialist, a fascist, a traitor to his class, on and on. Even the president's wife, Eleanor, was the target of these nay sayers.
We see more and more of the same these days as evidenced by the recent letter to the Sun Advocate (Feb.16, 2010 issue) by Richard L Warren of East Carbon. Rather than show some respect for the president, Mr. Warren refers to Pres. Obama as Berry Hussein Sotero, a socialist liberal. Now Pres. Obama was known as Barry Obama in his youth, not Berry as Mr. Warren writes.
In talking about deficits, let's look at the record of recent presidents. Ronald Reagan came in and ran deficits all eight years of his administration, something the senior Bush had to contend with. Clinton came in and finally balanced the budget and actually showed a surplus which the younger Bush promptly washed away with his tax cuts for the well-to-do and his ill advised invasion of Iraq,costing billions of dollars. This is the inheritance Pres. Obama came into and face arrogant accusations from people such as Mr. Warren.
In all due respect to Mr. Warren's views, all I can say to him is: "Wake up and smell the coffee."
