Does lighting add something special to the RSC's theatres? Does it help the audience feel emotions? Does it add a whole different dimension to a Shakespeare play?
From what I have seen here at the RSC the answer is 'Yes'. They have some of the world's best lighting technology and also some of the best lighting designers and lighting programmers in the country.
Lights are not just to light up an actor on the stage but it is also used to:
The lighting in Julius Caesar is amazing and it makes the audience feel like they are in a sports stadium. This is helped by the many flood lights used in the theatre not only on stage but hanging them above the audiences' heads in the auditorium.
The Directors' Talk
We were fortunate enough to catch a few wise words of wisdom from the Associate Director of Julius Caesar - Gbolahan Obisesan.
He began the workshop with some team building games that aimed to improve our spatial awareness and relationship with the other actors. We then engaged in a question and answer season - firing a load of queries about directing that were met with both helpful and refreshingly witty replies from Gbolahan.
Finally we finished the workshop by having a go at directing ourselves - which was harder than expected, especially when with stubborn actors with their own ideas!
The workshop was good fun giving an interesting look at the life of a director, as well as being able to have the experience of using our own creativity to interpret and direct an extract from a popular piece of Shakespeare.

So if you don't know - the PTC offers a push/pull tone pot mod for the P22. With the stock setup you can only get Humbucker or Humbucker WITH a single coil. With this mod, when you pull up the tone pot, you get JUST single coils - Bridge, Both, Neck.
Okay, still maybe in the "Honeymoon" but my first impression was I may NEVER push the pot back in! It's single coil and I can cover the stuff I liked to do with my Tele! But it's a bit better than my Tele - the top end is a bit warmer, there is still bite when you dig in but never that brittle "Ice pick in the ear". It sort of takes care of the reason you'd use a compressor - if that makes sense?
This is all bridge, I've played with the neck a bit and it's good too.
I was playing a bunch of stuff today at lunch - LOW, Mary Jane and a few others - Single coil was great. Then I played a song I'm just working up "Cheap Sunglasses" - I liked the Humbucker for that - more complexity and more depth.
Very useful mod for me. It gives me another "essential" tone out of the same guitar!
I agree with something Hans saild in another post " the "53/10's" are my favorite Single coil tone"

Gas Price Watch: Pumped up … a dime overnightMay 22, 2008 at 8:37 pm | In Gas prices, West Seattle news | 18 Comments
This time last night, 35th/Holden Chevron was at $3.99/gallon for regular, which wasn't the highest in West Seattle, since we'd noted earlier that Barnecut's Shell was the first WS station to break $4/regular, at $4.03 by midday yesterday. In the past 24 hours, however, 35th/Holden has pumped that price up a full dime … as you can see at left. Don't know if it's the highest in WS at the moment as we haven't done a full survey, but gave us a double-take.
18 Comments
I think it's just a contest between stations….who can go the highest the quickest…sorta like bidding at an auction…and the thing they're advertising for is a free ad in WSB…
We usually get gas at the 7-11 on California – our car only takes premium, so last night I noticed it was $4.03 for premium. I just drove by tonight, 12 hours later, and it's $4.12.
Comment by Sue — 8:55 pm May 22, 2008 #
I don't have a car so to me it doesn't matter to me, but just getting around in WS on a moped is an outstanding ides for the summer months.
Comment by Jiggers — 9:15 pm May 22, 2008 #
Seems like we should be outraged and take to the streets over these prices! Instead, I guess I'm taking the mayor up on his challenge and reducing the trips I take into the city by car: going to work one day from home and take the bus on another day. I don't think it will cost me any less to take the bus, but less demand for gasoline.
Comment by kathy — 10:00 pm May 22, 2008 #
If you are outraged, call/write your Congressional representation. They are the problem. There has been no new refinery built in how many years? Why? We have years and years of our own oil in the ground or under the ocean floor, but no we cannot go and get it. Why? Political grandstanding and BS.
Comment by Danno — 11:01 pm May 22, 2008 #
If you're outraged…well…you're wasting your energy (so to speak). Welcome to the free market at work! You want "someone" to blame? Here's a list for you:
Unrest in Nigeria; India's and China's explosive growth and demand for energy; Vladimer "Man of The Year" Putin's excessive demands from Western oil companies for drilling rights; lack of refineries; China owning most of Sudan; Iran's continued nuclear ambitions, despite the sloppy NIE report; Hugo Chavez, AND his relationship with Iran; Saudi Arabia's need to protect her supplies from asshat jihadists within her midsts; blame Canada (where we get 51% of our oil; oh, and the biggie (again) blame the free market economy where oil companies that you so despise ALSO have to buy the oil from; and that's all I care to type for now.
Save for ABC News who said supplies of oil are "low"; don't let them fool you…supplies are jsut fine. IF we drill for it off our coasts; IF we invest in drilling; IF we protect SA and Nigeria, IF…we do a lot of things that are otherwise unpopular and un-PC with enviro-weenies….
Well said OP, and when the independent refiners actually start to ramp up their margins (as they have been doing this past week) watch out for $5.

Greed will be the downfall of America GAURANTEED!!
Comment by Jiggers — 8:49 am May 23, 2008 #
That gas station always has the most expensive gas in WS; I dont' think I've ever seen anyone at the pump any time I've ever driven by there (which is somewhat frequently). I won't buy gas there ever.
I haven't been paying much attention to congress lately, but it is disheartening to see that oil companies are having record PROFITS lately (not revenue, but PROFIT). This kind of greed at the expense of the middle class and poor disgusts me; I'm glad winter is over- how the f*ck are people supposed to heat their homes if they have oil furnaces and maybe live on fixed incomes?? I complain about the price of gas, but I can handle it for now. What makes me mad is the thought that many others don't have extra padding in their budgets to help the fat-cats reel in their profits.
Comment by m — 9:04 am May 23, 2008 #
Oh, and I forgot to add: The 46 different blends of gas refiners are forced—yes, forced, thanks to government environmental regulations—to make throughout the year.
OP… drilling for more oil isn't the solution. It may lower prices today but it's just pushing the problem to tomorrow (5 years, 10 years, no one really knows when we'll reach peak oil).
If you place your call to your Congressperson, push for them to stop providing subsidies for oil companies and to come up with a comprehensive energy policy that works for all Americans, not just corn farmers in the Midwest.

IF the oil companies stop gouging us and reporting record profits….IF our own president & VP didn't make SO much off their oil stocks…IF oil were just oil and not a means to invade a sovereign nation…but I guess anyone who doesn't support making Alaska look like Arizona if just an "enviro-weenie"
Comment by JenV — 10:44 am May 23, 2008 #
jai: Drilling in the aforementioned areas, if all environmental hurdles were summarily dismissed today, would not only lower price today but in the future as well (oil is a future on the commodities market, remember). There is, in essence, no problem with our supply; there's is plenty of oil out there. In fact, the Bakken Shale formation in the Dakotas is believed 167 billion barrels of oil, yet only 1% of which is "currently recoverable using current technologies–enough to last us well into the next century. In turn, in most oil fields only the top 1/3 of the field is recoverable using current drilling technology nor is cost effective to extract it at this time. Yet given the rapid rate of technological advancements by mankind over the last century and a half, it's entirely possible that fields once thought to be "dry" can be tapped once again.
Look, I couldn't agree more that we should be looking for alternative energy solutions that will replace oil. But, in the meantime, the world runs on oil and it powers much of what we do and make. In short, we need it so let's quit pretending like we don't and that we don't need it.
So the notion that our supplies are dwindling is bogus fear-mongering (familiar term) by the environmentalist movement to promote its agenda.
And while we're taking away subsidies from oil companies, let's take away the gov't subsidies to farmers to make corn AND to car companies that make hyrbids and let the "free" market economy do its thing.
OP: probably a debate for a different forum, but it's a Friday before a long weekend so I can't resist. You've hit the nail on the head and we're in complete agreement… we can "invent" ourselves out of the current oil price issue.
But as you say, we don't currently have the technology to cost-effectively remove oil from shale and other tough to reach spots. The Jed Clampett days of shooting at a rabbit and striking black gold are long past.
So it's completely a cost issue. So the question is whether we should invest all of those R&D resources on technologies that can "grow" crude oil alternatives in the US (i.e. algae, cellulosic ethanol feedstocks, etc) or should we continue to invest in oil companies so that they can extract a non-renewable resource that's also a major emitter of carbon? I really don't understand the logic of investing in the latter.
Comment by jai — 11:34 am May 23, 2008 #
IF the oil companies stop gouging us and reporting record profits… There's not ONE shred of evidence to support any price gouging by oil companies. The only gouging going on is by our politicians who keep doing "official congressional investigations" into the matter it and wasting our tax dollars. (This has been done repeatedly byu Congress since the 1970s.) Oil companies may be reporting record profits in terms of dollars, but it terms of profit margin, they're running at roughly 9%—pretty standard.
IF our own president & VP didn't make SO much off their oil stocks Um, Jen, government officials in the office of the President have their holdings frozen at the market price at the time that official entered office. In other words, if the price of Cheney's Halliburton stock was, for example, $50 a share at the time he entered office and it's $150 now, once he leaves office he receives it at the $50 price, not the $150. So there's really nothing made here, at all. Except conspiracy theories.
IF oil were just oil and not a means to invade a sovereign nation… All nations are sovereign. This sovereign "argument" attempts to connote sovereign as somehow meaning "peaceful", which it does not, and clearly Iraq was not. And then there's the Iraq Liberation Act of 1998 that was official government policy prior to Bush taking office, tthe 17 U.N. resolutions ignored/violated by Iraq, including 1441 under the 1991 cease fire agreement, the countless missiles fired at our planes in the No-Fly Zones for over 12 years (itself an act of war under the 1991 cease fire agreement and grounds for invasion), the ties, funding and intelligence provided to numerous terrorists organizations and endeavors, including, yes, Ansar al-Islam, a terrorist group meant to inflict terror on Kurdish Iraqis (and with very loose but not substantial ties to AQ ), the filling of mass graves, etc. Iraq, sovereign? Even if the word did connote peaceful, the notion that Iraq was somehow a peaceful country is intellectually and morally repugnant.
So it's completely a cost issue. So the question is whether we should invest all of those R&D resources on technologies that can "grow†crude oil alternatives in the US (i.e. algae, cellulosic ethanol feedstocks, etc) or should we continue to invest in oil companies so that they can extract a non-renewable resource that's also a major emitter of carbon? I really don't understand the logic of investing in the latter.
I would counter with a similar point: the technology really isn't presently there to convert algae, etc. in a cost effective manner as to be widely marketable—not to mention the likely high costs associated with likely conversions needed in modern combustion engines. That conversion would take decades even if a cheap, alternate means were found next week. But why subsidize one technology over another? Simply based on the debatable issue of whether or not humans are the cause of global warming (and it is an issue that is incredibly debatable no matter Al Gore says)? That makes little sense in terms of fairness, agree?
I understand the logic in investing in the latter now because currently oil is the most cost effective means of meeting our energy needs. Should those biofuels some day reach the same cost effectiveness as oil, then—fantastic!—we'll have a choice in fuels (thus lowering the price of both BTW). In the meantime, drill and subsidized both drilling technology and biofuel research equally.
(P.S. We're talking energy; we're on topic.)
awww, Now the argument of Iraq is being backed up by the U.N. agreements? How convenient.
Cheney has stock options in Haliburton, he continues to recieve a deferred salary from them (2001; $262,392 in 2002; $278,437 in 2003; and $294,852 in 2004). I'm going to have to read more about your statement as far as him cashing out on the price of the stock only when he went into office. I do believe he can't sell his current shares while "in" office. But when he's out, it's quite the "mother load" in terms of profit.
Although it's not brought up the domestic drilling in the U.S still costs about $23-25 dollars a barrell, but is still being sold for $123 a barrell domestically.
The oil companies were given tax breaks and subsidies as an incentive to build more refineries, which a new one hasn't been built in 25yrs. The tax money that supports these oil companies overshadow's any congressional hearing price you speak of.
Why is it that people scream "less government" but forget to mention our tax money helping those companies making history breaking profits?????
To think Iraq was not about oil and deferring to the barbaric ways of the Saddam government and not bringing up dozens of other countries with mentally unstable dictators I find is intellectually and morally selectively absurd.
Comment by TRICK — 1:19 pm May 23, 2008 #
The oil companies were given tax breaks and subsidies as an incentive to build more refineries, which a new one hasn't been built in 25yrs.
Wrong. Dead wrong, in fact. Yes, they receive movies to make refineries to a degree, BUT those efforts have been so cockblocked by environmental groups and tied up in courts that it's made building a refinery cost ineffective
Why is it that people scream "less government†but forget to mention our tax money helping those companies making history breaking profits?????
Again, profit in terms of dollars, not in terms of margin. And I think we need to know exactly what those subsidies are going for; I know in many instances it's to research alternative fuel solutions.
To think Iraq was not about oil and deferring to the barbaric ways of the Saddam government and not bringing up dozens of other countries with mentally unstable dictators I find is intellectually and morally selectively absurd.
OK, then prove the war has been solely about oil. Yes, it's played some part, but not the conspiratorial greediness of oil shareholders and their companies that leftists like to think the war is about. Morevoer, it wasn't until just early last year that Iraq's oil production exceeded per-war levels, and even then just barely doing so. The same is still true today.
awww, Now the argument of Iraq is being backed up by the U.N. agreements? How convenient.
The invasion and liberation of Iraq has always been backed by the UN resolutions (not agreements, as you state.) Otherwise, you're statement is nonsense and pointless.
Cheney has stock options in Haliburton, he continues to recieve a deferred salary from them (2001; $262,392 in 2002; $278,437 in 2003; and $294,852 in 2004).
So? He doesn't receive them as you're thinking. That money is put into a holding account while he's in office. And BTW, don't you think if there was ANY wrongdoing or illegal salary received by Cheney during his time in office that the Dems wouldn't be all over it like white on rice? Seriously, you've gotta be kidding me with this red herring of a point.

SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) — U.S. stocks mostly edged higher Monday, with the Dow industrials falling short of a close above 13,000, as a rise in planned home purchases offset disappointment over the G-20's potential support for Europe.

J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. JPM, +1.85% and Bank of America Corp. BAC, +1.40% were the best performers on the index, each closing 2% higher. Hewlett-Packard Co. HPQ, +2.30% shares led declines in 17 of 30 Dow components.
"What we've been seeing recently is: European worries have started us down, but then U.S. data comes in surprisingly strong and continues to move people into being less worried about downside risk," said Bill Stone, chief investment strategist at PNC Wealth Management Group.

Next page: Lonnie Frisbee and Calvary Chapel
A hippie evangelist at the beginning of the Jesus People movement, Lonnie Frisbee was a key figure in the history of both Calvary Chapel and the Vineyard Christian Fellowship.
However, until recently his contribution to these movements - some claim neither Calvary Chapel nor the Vineyard would have existed were it not for Frisbee - had been largely ignored because Frisbee struggled with homosexuality and died of AIDS in 1993.
Lonnie Frisbee put the freak in Jesus freak. With his long brown hair, long craggily beard, dusty clothing, scent of Mary Jane and glint of his last LSD trip in his eyes, he showed up out of nowhere, at the height of the '60s, literally on Chuck Smith's doorstep.
Smith was just another conservative Orange County pastor. He'd moved from a small church in Corona to an even smaller one in Costa Mesa, yet had impressively boosted membership from three people to more than 200.
According to a scratchy recording of Smith's voice in a new documentary, the pastor would look at "dirty hippies" and wonder, "Why don't you take a bath?" But his front-porch meeting with Frisbee in 1968 was awash in the wonderful coincidences Christians point to as proof of God working in mysterious ways. The hippie was fresh off an LSD-juiced vision in which God told him he'd turn hordes of young people on to Christ. Smith's wife, Kay, had just had a vision of her own: that her husband's church would reach out to those damn (but not necessarily damned) dirty hippies. "I turned and saw the tears streaming down her face," Smith says on the recording, "and I could see she was praying." So he asked his daughter's boyfriend to pull a random hippie off the street, bring him to the pastor's home and let him get inside the Flower Child mindset. Along Fair Drive in Costa Mesa, the boyfriend picked up a hitchhiker with flowing brown hair, flowing scraggily beard and a Bible clutched against his dusty shirt. The random hippie was Lonnie Frisbee.
Before long, the two men bonded. Despite his misgivings about hippie hygiene, Smith was always fascinated by the peace-and-love rhetoric. And this kid's Bible knowledge impressed him. Frisbee saw in Smith a much-desired father figure. They went on to stand side by side off Little Corona beach, dunking thousands of young people in the chilly waters for the most informal and joyous of baptisms. At his Calvary Chapel, Smith taught about the End Times on Monday nights and Frisbee packed in the hippies on Wednesday nights. Church membership skyrocketed. Young people around the land heard about "the hippie preacher in Costa Mesa" who was goofy, brusque and looked as if he's just walked out of the Bible. "People say I look like Jesus," he once said, "and I can't think of anyone else I'd rather look like."

In 1969 a friend of mine who knew Jesus brought me to the Bluebird Motel in Newport Beach and I was introduced to Lonnie Frisbee and Connie. I had indulged in demonic things I will not speak of them because they were terrible sins of a spiritual nature. I spoke in tongues of devils and by them committed sins of the spirit. I remained silent in Lonnie's present except for responses of yes and no but he had no knowledge of the demons I harbored in my soul. We went to Calvary Chapel on Sunflower and Greeville which was still being completed. It was a Wed. night with about 35 people there. Most were young , in their teens and early twenties. Jim Golden, Lonnie , and a brother I only knew later as Mickey sat on the raised platform in front and the three ministered by the Holy Spirit through exhortations and gifts of healings and other evidences of the power and presence of God. I was amazed , like the sorcerer Simon, Philip met in Samaria, that such things were in the church of Jesus. After this time of unified worship and ministry the meeting was over but an "afterglow" for those wishing to stay in this Holy adoration of God and His love remained and Lonnie asked in anyone would like to have hands layed on them for prayer. Several people did and I also knelt before the three brothers mentioned. The moment hands were laid on me the devils came to retain their property. It was as though I was watching a movie because I was not in control. The love of God was like light shining in every dark place in me and healing as it shone and that light was pure unconditional acceptence. If God's voice had thundered a rebuke I would not have been surprised but the love conquered me and I was chained as I am now to the God of all grace and mercy who forgave so much so freely. Those three dear saints were used by God and the might of that all conquering love and everlasting life came into me and made me alive forever. I have had testings like Job and Jeremiah and mercies like David. I live in the Shiloh Ministries in at Beth Nimrah Buena Park, Ca. Whittier, Ca. Oxnard, Ca. Dexter , Or. and Aloha, Or. God's voice has spoken through me to reveal hidden things and secret thoughts. I have seen the things to come that can not be spoken of but are revealed to the people of God in their time. I have been a warrior in the prayer closet and used as a prophet but by that night I was born into the house of God it is that love and light that is more than anything. It was the promise of the world to come that we have as vessels of Christ Jesus. We are more than conquerors. We are Kings and priests before our God. Lonnie's face and his whole being were filled with God. That he died of AIDS is no proof he did not serve God. He was weak. God was mighty in him and used him to create hope and a heavenly path for many people. He dies because he had sinned and did things that put his health and life in danger. He was on the battlefront where demons prey upon your weakness but fainting in not a sin to death and I do not understand the doubts some folks have about this man's deeds , whether they were of God or manipulative and self deceptive. Like the man who was blind or Lazarus come up from the grave I can only say I was blind and dead and God used Lonnie and the others to make me alive and open my eyes. Almost 40 years the Lord is my God and I know I will see that brother in the Kingdom to come. Pastor Chuck Smith baptized me in the bay in Newport Beach, Ca. Calvary Chapel was built up by Lonnie Frisbee's ministry and made less than what it could have been by over emphasis on the one authoritative ministry of teaching. No church can attain wholeness and maturity through teaching alone. Calvary Chapel limits the potential of the body of Christ which is intended to function as the body of Jesus Christ on the earth. It is to operate as a Holy Spirit directed body declaring to the world the manifold wisdom of God in ways that cause wonder and break the bands of this world's loves asunder. Holy Holy Holy is the cry of those beholding the God of glory. He is our God. The Almighty and the everlasting and His own reflect that in their existence. This is the true Christian life so if our brother Lonnie died because of sin he did not die in his sin for beneath us all are the everlasting arms and the blood of Christ and God is just to forgive us our many sins because a great price was paid for our redemption. Death, where is your sting? Grave , where is your victory? David murdered a man to have his wife. Peter denied knowing Jesus. That love can not die. Thank you for taking note of Brother Lonnie and his role in church history.
This is the first time I have ever heard of Lonnie Frisbee. I know of Chuck Smith and the wonderful things done through Calvary Chapel and I am astonished that someone of Mr. Frisbee's caliber has been brushed under the rug. I have been a Christian for 13 years and I now work in the ministry and I have faults like everyone else. We are all sinners and fall short of the glory of God, but God's mercy has saved us. I believe that Calvary Chapel should be singing the praises of what Lonnie Frisbee accomplished to further the kingdom of God. You do not have to be perfect to be effective or for God to be able to use you. If it were so, no one would be able to live up to that kind of standard. I believe that Lonnie Frisbee is in heaven enjoying his rewards and receiving credit from God for every person who's life has been impacted through Calvary Chapel.
I thank God for Lonnie and his life. I agree with the two previous postings. I know that God uses the foolish to confount the wise. All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. Christians are not perfect. Maybe it is time far followers of Christ to remember what Jesus did, and who he is. I don't know that Jesus would be in a church hanging out with the preachers and pure... right? I think he would be reaching out to those in less holy places. I am sorry for Lonnie, and that he had to die the way that he did. The good news is that Lonnie's sin is no different in Gods eyes than anyone elses. God had a plan for Lonnie. I believe he is in God's Kingdom and free from the hell of this world.
I once heard Dr. Micheal Brown(Jewish believing scholar) say this: We ought not to limit God where He has not limited himself.
I believe this. Some say "if it´s not in the bible, I dont believe it" But should it more so be,"if its contrary to the Bible, I throw it out"? there is a big diference. Blessing in Him, Jim
It's sad that what the Lord did in a small group called Calvary Chapel over 30 years ago, he couldn't do now, as Lonnie and those like him not only would not be permitted to speak or minister in the church but would be promplty escorted out. We have traded the Holy Spirit for comfort and familiarity, we have become Father Son and Holy Scripture. Calvary Chapels sadly are now ruled by nepotism, Simony, and who you know, and by "who you know" I don't mean "Jesus", every pastor now has to be connected by blood, or by an old network of familiar faces, an old boys network. In one particular case a young Calvary Chapel pastor is married to another mega church's pastor's daughter, so he is given a senior pastoret in an established smaller calvary chapel, and the previous pastor comes to the mega church where he is now allowed from time to time and in the absense of the Senior pastor to preach to the thousands that attend this mega church, a small price to pay... it has become an employment agency for the extended family....It has been said, "it seems that every move of God begins with one man, and then it becomes a movement and finally a monument," well even though they try to wipe him out and erase him from memory, for better or worse "that man" was Lonnie Frisbee, and then the movement that God used him to beget becomes a monument....Calvary Chapel and the Vineyard's revisionist history is very different than how the Bible portrays the men God used in the Bible, men who were frail, faulted and struggling with sin, but we enjoyed their gifts, we used their calling and were amazed at their anointing, and when we got what we wanted a movement with thousands of churches then we threw them away, threw away the spark, the catalyst, and the man God used into the darkness. Men like Lonnie Frisbee come into our midst very seldom, maybe once in a lifetime to bring a fresh touch from God! and yet who was there for Lonnie when he needed help and understanding, who was there to lift him up rather than condemn him, "for when you do it to the least of these, you've done it unto me!" Calvary Chapel, Chuck Smith, Gregg Laurie, shame on you....and thank God for the man that God used, because of Jesus working through that man you are where you are today!
Lonnie came to a meeting we had at Calvary Chapel Pacific Beach back in 1982, I believe, and the spirit of God fell in a mighty way. It brought home to me for the first time, being a new believer, that God did exist, and in power.
I don't think the quote by Di Sabatino is at all correct, about people not wanting to talk about Lonnie because he died of Aids. I've never found anyone in Calvary or Vineyard who shied away from the topic. It's the perfect opportunity to review again God's incredible grace. Here he poured out his spirit on this man still entrenched in sin--if not in action then in mind--not because Lonnie deserved it, but solely because God is gracious. He will use who he chooses. And like Chuck Smith said at his funeral, Lonnie was a Sampson type. He could never (or never chose to) conquer that sin. You don't think God didn't know the outcome before Lonnie was born? Yes he chose through he grace and mercy to use him in spite of that.
I must say that the second time I heard Lonnie speak, now at Vineyard of P.B., he was a bit cavalier in his attitude toward God. Sometimes people think that because of God's grace--and the fact that God still uses them while they're in sin--they have a bigger portion of grace and are special than others. I've met people like that, and to a person they always use that mindset to sin juuuuuust a little more. Until it does catch up with them and they turn from their church or God.
Lonnie will probably always be an enigma to the Church but his love for Jesus and the things God did through him are worthy of our attention and respect. The hurt he experienced by his own hand and at the hand of those he loved and trusted was tremendous. The Church as an institution failed him and the Christian men he looked to wounded him deeply. Yet at the same time it was the Church, as plain folk, who loved and nursed him into a wholeness and healing that left him at peace.

Garmin release Vector power meter + video
Long-awaited pedal-based power-measurement system now available
Previous News
Next News
Garmin have finally released their Vector pedal-based power meter, and we have the system in for review at road.cc.
We first told you about the Vector pedals when we saw them at Eurobike 2011, nearly two years ago. Put simply, you fit the pedals and their accompanying pedal pods to your cranks, and you get power measurements displayed and recorded on your Garmin computer (or another compatible computer that uses ANT+ wireless sensor network technology).
The measurements are taken by strain gauges in the pedal axle – they measure the slight deflection of the pedal axle through the stroke – and integrated accelerometers that measure your cadence. The Vector system uses this information to calculate your power. The data is transmitted to your bike computer via the pedal pods.
Garmin had a working version back at Eurobike 2011, but they encountered problems in the manufacturing process. They could make the pedals, but not on a production scale. After putting back the release date a couple of times, Garmin eventually started to just say that the Vectors would be ready when they were ready – in a polite way, of course. We half expected the project to be shelved, but here it is.
In fact, the Vectors that are now being released are very different from those that we saw a couple of years ago.
"We've revisited the designs over the past two years to get us to a factory production level," says Andy Silver, Garmin's European Fitness Product Manager. "We've doubled the number of strain gauges in the spindle [or axle] from four to eight, the algorithms have changed, the pedal pod material has changed, the pedal material has changed, and the calibration processes have been improved."
It's a complete redesign, really. We've had a set of Vectors only since Monday, but setting them up seems straightforward. As long as your cranks measure a maximum of 38mm x 15mm round (the vast majority) and there's 5mm clearance between the chain in the biggest gear and the crank (again, that's the vast majority), you should have no trouble. You just need a 15mm pedal spanner.
You fit the pedals like you would any others after first placing the pod on the pedal axle. You might have to sling a washer on there too if the threaded hole on the crank arm is recessed. Once tightened, you plug the pod's cable into the end of the pedal axle… and that's it as far as the pedals are concerned.
Then, all you need to do is pair up the pedals with your bike computer, input your crank length and set the installation angle. The installation angle?
"The device needs to know the precise angle at which the pedal is located in order to calculate the power accurately," says Andy Silver. "It needs to be able to differentiate between tangential and radial force – standing force and moving force – and knowing the precise installation angle of the power helps define that information.
"You get a message on your computer telling you to pedal up to 80rpm and then, after a few seconds, a message saying that the installation angles are set.
"We also recommend that before each ride you hit the 'calibrate' button on your computer to take account of the ambient temperature. And you can pedal backwards five times at any point while you're riding to remove any residual torque that's in the system."
It really is that simple. Initial setup takes a matter of minutes, subsequent setup takes a matter of seconds. You can also perform a static torque test by hanging a weight off the pedal to double-check the calibration, but Garmin say that's largely for user reassurance. They reckon that the Vector system, calibrated at various temperatures in the factory, is accurate to within +/-2%.
"We've done thousands of hours of testing the Vector system alongside SRM cranks and PowerTap hubs," says Andy Silver. "There are sometimes slight differences in the numbers given by the three different systems but they track one another consistently."
Your computer can display your power measurements as you ride, of course, and also give you a left/right leg balance. The Vector system captures your power output throughout the pedal revolution so it will eventually be able to show how you're applying your power during the stroke. That'll be added as a simple software update in 2-3 months (see below).
Garmin are now offering software updates for using the Vector pedals with their Edge 500, 510, 800 and 810 bike computers, and also with their Forerunner 910XT multisports watch. All your power data will be stored for downloading later, just like your speed, distance, navigation information and so on.
Power metrics that the Vector records include:
• Left/right balance: average at various time intervals
• Power: average at various time intervals
• Training Stress Score
• Normalized power
• Intensity Factor
• Total power in watts
• Overall kilojoules
• Power zones
"We have a website specifically for Vector owners with installation videos showing people how to calibrate the units," says Andy Silver. "There will also be an Updater app which you can download onto your PC or Mac. You just bring the pedals within 3-4m of the computer and run the app to update them."
All the parts that are likely to wear are user replaceable – the pedal bodies, the pedal pods, the cleats – and you get a two-year warranty. That's a stainless steel wear plate across the centre of the pedal, by the way. You can also change the battery in each of the pods yourself. It's just a standard 2032 coin cell in there.
In terms of weight, here's how the Vector system shapes up, according to the road.cc Scales of Truth:
• Pedals – 306g per pair
• Pedal pods - 46g per pair
• Cleats – 50g per pair
• Cleat washers and screws – 26g (total)
So, you have a weight-penalty of around 100g over a pair of non-power measuring pedals. The cleats are Look Kéo-style. Garmin say that they are open to the possibility of offering pedals that work with Shimano, Time or Speedplay-style cleats in the future. The technology would allow expansion to other platforms, but they've not made decisions on subsequent pedal developments yet.
Here's Garmin's own promo video to give you the basic info...
The Vector pedal system is priced at £1,349 and will retail through 61 handpicked dealers. You'll find a list on the Garmin and Madison websites.
When Garmin announced the Vector pedals back in 2011, the price was going to be £1,149, but the changes to the manufacturing process have pushed that up. They're keen to point out, though, that their system is easily transferable from bike to bike – so you only have to shell-out once if you want power measurement on both a road bike and a time trial bike, for example.
Of course, a hub-based power-meter is easily swapped from bike to bike as long as you're happy using the same rims too, and a crank-based system is transferable to some extent – but we take the point that a pedal system is highly convenient for moving between bikes.
Anyway, the merits of the various systems are a discussion for another time. We're going to get out there and put some miles into the Vectors, and we'll be back with a review on road.cc soon.
Looks interesting and well thought out. Wish I could justify such a purchase.
Can't wait for power meters to become more affordable!

Of course, the price is an obstacle for most of us but – who knows? – maybe the tech will trickle down. If anyone eventually manages to make something similar for £500, say, they'll clean up. But we're a long way off that at the moment. Anything incorporating precision strain gauges and that's this tricky to manufacture might never be cheap.
Types of bearings? We're not sure on that one. We'll find out in time for our review.

I was really hoping these might be cheaper when I started reading this article.
Does it give two power readings? One for each leg would be cool!
Edit - Maybe someone wants to go splits with me? I'll take the right pedal and you can have the left!

Well this sucks. I was really looking forward to a competitive price from these... This isn't competitive and can hardly be called "easily swappable" when you have to remove the pods and the pedals. The stages power meter is £600 odd and installs via two crank bolts and you're done. Shame.

mckechan - I think it does measure both legs ie the whole checking your balancing your power output between both legs?
Looks great if you'd like me to test them for you road.cc I will gladly do so, might not get them back though!

Hope its more reliable than my 500 edge on which the mounting tab has recently snapped. Being held on by an elastic band these days as refuse to pay Garmins extortionate £68 + P&P for a new casing which probably costs 50 pence! Any chance they had of getting my business went down the drain with the crap service i have received so far! £68, you can buy a 200 Edge for only £80 ish these days.

no doubt this would be (more) affordable if sold directly to customer a la Canyon.
There must be a nearly inverse exponential relationship between price and turnover on a product like this. The company that gets the manufacturing cost of a power meter like this down to Edge 810 price level will be laughing all the way to the bank.

$1699.99=£1095.99 retail in the USA so why are we being ripped off for another £253.01 in the UK?
The Stages system is less complex, consistent and only requires one crankarm to be moved (if you have two bikes!) at half that price.

This is very common fault with garmins. Compare this Blackburn. Life time guarantee. I bought a Blackburn computor second hand of e bay. It packed in 18 months later. Took to my LBS who sent it back to the importer and I got a full refund as the model was no longer available.

US prices are always without sales tax as that varies state to state. 20% VAT on £1095.99 would bring the price to £1315.19. The difference may be other import charges, or just because they feel like it.

Perhaps ask around your club mates and see if anyone's interested in investing in a club power meter co-op. Be a doddle particularly with these pedal options, so long as everyone's on the same page regarding cleats.

Vaginal itching has many causes
Yeast infection is the primary cause of vaginal itching However, no one could diagnose medical problems himself. This can only be done by a professional, and can only be confirmed by health care providers. Therefore, very important consultation to physicians for proper diagnosis.
If vaginal discharge that is normal issue, sometimes humid regions it will also cause itching.

CHEW ON THIS – That's the message from Sheila Place of Marstons Mills, a member of the Unitarian Church of Barnstable Green Sanctuary Committee, as she stands in front of a group of goats dining on greens Sept. 20. By demonstrating under NStar power lines off Phinney's Lane in Hyannis, Place and others stressed that there are better alternatives for controlling vegetation than spraying herbicides. Critics of NStar CEO Tom May say he should adopt such measures to protect the Cape's groundwater. At last week's Barnstable Town Council meeting, members took no action on a request to write a letter of protest to NStar. Some said they would send their own letters, and Councilor June Daley pointed out that the council's 2012 resolution on the issue had no expiration date. Town Manager Tom Lynch said he has written to NStar, the state agriculture department, and other state officials to state the town's opposition to the spraying.

Tuesday, November 22, 2011
© Copyright 2015 Gwinnett Daily Post
LOGANVILLE -- In some football lore, offensive linemen have been compared to blocks of granite. Other times, they have been referred to as the "big uglies."
At Grayson, the offensive line has been a mainstay, especially during the team's current run of five straight trips to the Class AAAAA state quarterfinals that includes a visit from West Forsyth to Grayson Community Stadium on Friday.
But while this year's unit maintains the toughness that seems appropriate living up to the team's "Rams" mascot, it has shown other traits that have helped set it apart.
Not that the starting unit of center Fred Zerblis, tackles Garrett Gorringe and Harris Cesko, guards Ian Mangini and Hayden Gregory and tight end Matt Roon don't have the necessary physical traits to excel.
"They're all really good athletes," Grayson coach Mickey Conn said of his offensive line. "They've got size, and they really run well, which is important as much as we like to get our running backs to the corner.
"They're also very smart and play really well together. They communicate well together. They play as a unit, and that's been really key."
It's not hard to see where that chemistry comes from.
With all of its members except the junior Gregory being seniors, most of the group have played together as a unit for several years dating back even before they came to high school.
And as Gorringe points out, that familiarity with each other comes in handy when it comes time for the line to clear the way for the Rams' skill position players.
"It absolutely helps just knowing who you're playing with," said the 6-foot-4, 270-pound Georgia State commit. "We've played with each other so long, we know more or less what each other is going to do -- our strengths (and) weaknesses. It helps a lot keeping everybody together and on the same page."
The line has been on the same page pretty much the entire 2011 season judging by how productive the Rams' offense has been.
In addition to ranking fourth in the county in scoring a 32.6 points per game, Grayson also ranks fourth in the county with an average of roughly 230 rushing yards per game and sixth in Gwinnett in total offense at about 337 yards per contest.
Those numbers are a point of pride for all the linemen, especially given the hard-nosed, grind-it-out reputation of the Rams' running game.
"We love to run the ball," said the 6-2, 298-pound Zerblis. "If we can run the ball, we'll just control the game, basically."
But as much as Grayson has dominated on the ground through its traditionally run-first wing-T set, the experience and the efficiency of quarterback Nick Schuessler and the emergence of weapons like Callen Hightower and Marcus Lindquist has prompted Conn and his staff to install more pass-friendly, spread offense sets.
The difference in the blocking schemes that the line had to learn throughout the summer and preseason were quite a change from that the individual members were used to.
"That's something they've really had to learn -- pass blocking," Conn said. "It's probably the biggest hurdle they've had to hop over. They've been doing wing-T blocking pretty much their whole existence. Now all of the sudden, they had to protect in a five-man (pass) protection scheme."
But Conn is very pleased with how well they adapted to the new sets, and the Rams' numbers bear him out.
Schuessler has been given plenty of time to become one of the county's most efficient passers, completing 61.1 percent of his passes (77 of 126) for 1,246 yards and 14 touchdowns on just three interceptions, and giving Grayson enough of a passing threat to keep opposing defenses from loading up the box to shut down the running game.
"We just started working on the spread during the summer -- learning all the new techniques," Gorringe said. "I like hitting people, so it was hard to learn to stay back, especially with the quick (defensive) ends we have. But once (we) got adjusted to it, we're all doing pretty well with it."
No matter what the blocking scheme, the Rams' linemen know they will never get as much glory as the skill players do. That's the nature of their positions.
But that doesn't mean their efforts go unnoticed.
In addition to the already-committed Gorringe, several other members of the line are garnering attention from college programs.
Zerblis holds offers from Alabama-Birmingham, Arkansas State, Western Kentucky, Georgia Southern and Georgia State, among others, while Cesko has drawn interest from Coastal Carolina, among others.
But as Zerblis points out, the Rams' wins and further advancement in the state playoffs are their own rewards.
"You just have to stay patient with everything," Zerblis said. "It's going to work itself out in the end."

The Orioles have gotten some good news injury wise of late. MRI's for both Brian Roberts and Justin Duchscherer came back clean. Duchscherer is a low risk guy who I think would be a nice bonus to the roster if healthy, but Roberts is vital if this team is going to have any kind of quality season. Meanwhile, Derek Lee seems to be ready to take batting practice. Lets hope the good news continues for Buck Showalter and his nuggets

What's Open on Thanksgiving Day in NYC 2014: 11 Things to Do with Kids Besides the Parade
Yes, everyone knows about the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. But what happens once it's over? Your dinner doesn't start for another few hours, and if you're not the one cooking, you're going to find yourself with free time on your hands.
Luckily, this is the city that never sleeps. There actually are things to do on Thanksgiving Day in New York City that don't involve eating turkey, watching giant balloons or camping out for Black Friday sales. Here are 11 fun ways to spend part of Thanksgiving Day with your kids.
Happy Thanksgiving to your family from all of the moms at Mommy Poppins NYC! Here's to a happy holiday season.
Sign up for our FREE newsletters to get posts like this delivered to your inbox.
1. See a flick. Movie theaters are open on Thanksgiving Day, so your family can get reacquainted with the zany Penguins of Madagascar or see Disney's Big Hero 6. If you've got older kids, catch Katniss on the big screen in The Hunger Games: Mockingjay—Part 1.
2. Go ice-skating. Thanksgiving is a great day to hit the ice before or after your big feast. The rinks at Winter Village in Bryant Park, Brookfield Place, Wollman in Central Park, Riverbank State Park, McCarren Park and Rockefeller Center are all open for skating on Thanksgiving (weather permitting). Note: Since Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade marches down Sixth Avenue, wait to head to Bryant Park until after the parade passes. You can even do some holiday shopping at its market, which will be open, too. Too cold for you out there? Four indoor rinks are open as well: Sky Rink at Chelsea Piers, World Ice Arena and Aviator Sports and Events Center and Abe Stark.
3. Take a stroll. My family and I plan to walk off our dinners by checking out all of the awesome department store holiday windows in Midtown East before the crowds arrive for Black Friday. Thanksgiving is also a great day to take a quiet stroll through one of our city's iconic green spaces. Central Park, Prospect Park, Flushing Meadows Corona Park, Brooklyn Bridge Park, the Brooklyn Heights Promenade and Van Cortlandt Park are all open, as are many others.
4. Get a workout before you feast or just watch your brood break a sweat in the Long Island City YMCA's Kids Turkey Dash, featuring short races for various age groups. If you prefer wheels, join the Pilgrim Pedal, a multi-mile bike ride beginning and ending on East 23rd. The entry fee covers the cost of a mid-ride breakfast at a Brooklyn diner and participants are encouraged to come in holiday costumes.
5. See a show. Big Apple Circus: Metamorphosis and the Radio City Christmas Spectacular both have availability for their Thanksgiving performances. Broadway shows Pippin, The Phantom of the Opera and Chicago all have performances that day, too.
6. Hang with the animals. The New York Aquarium, the Prospect Park Zoo, the Queens Zoo and the Central Park Zoo are all open on Thanksgiving. However, note that the Bronx Zoo is closed.
7. Go bowling. Balls will start rolling at the Times Square and Chelsea Piers Bowlmor Lanes at noon and 4pm respectively. Lucky Strike on 42nd and 12th Avenue opens at noon. If you'd rather play games, arcade/restaurant Dave & Buster's is open, too.
8. Play tourist. If you're entertaining out-of-towners, the Empire State Building and the Top of the Rock are open and possibly not as crowded as they usually are. You can also take a sail on the Circle Line, or visit the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island.
9. Explore a museum. Although most cultural institutions are closed for the holiday, the no-cost National Museum of the American Indian is open as is Brooklyn's Jewish Children's Museum. You can also hit Midtown West tourist spots like Madame Tussauds, Ripley's Believe it or Not Odditorium and Discovery Times Square, home to Body Worlds: Pulse and Marvel's Avengers S.T.A.T.I.O.N..
10. Pamper yourself. If all that Thanksgiving planning, cooking and feasting wipes you out, take a dip in the rejuvenating waters of the family-friendly Spa Castle, which is open on the holiday.
11. Help others less fortunate. Although most Thanksgiving volunteer opportunities are already filled up, there are a few that still have room. My son and I often deliver turkey dinners to home-bound New Yorkers through Gods Love We Deliver. According to the website, it's sold out but it's worth emailing the organization to see if last-minute help is needed. Also, the Church of the Intercession's Gobble Gobble Give NYC puts volunteers to work on a first-come, first-served basis on Thanksgiving morning, so arrive early if you want to help!
Start planning the rest of your holiday season with our Holiday Fun Guide.

The demonstrators, who have blocked a key highway connecting Iraq to Syria and Jordan for the past week over the alleged targeting of their Sunni Arab minority by the Shiite-led government in Baghdad, threw water bottles, stones and shoes at Mutlak before grabbing and hitting him.

Saint Joseph Mercy Health System Hospitals Graded Best in Class by The Leapfrog Group's New Hospital Safety ScoreSM
Straight As earned by hospitals in Ann Arbor, Chelsea, Livingston, Oakland and Livonia
Ann Arbor, Mich., June 7, 2012 – Five hospitals in the Saint Joseph Mercy Health System received 'A' grades for their ability to keep patients safe during a hospital stay, according to a new Hospital Safety ScoreSM released today by The Leapfrog Group, an independent national nonprofit run by employers and other large purchasers of health benefits.
Calculated under the guidance of The Leapfrog Group's Blue Ribbon Expert Panel, the Hospital Safety Score used publicly available data on patient injuries, medical and medication errors, and infections from 2010-2011. More than 2,600 hospitals across the U.S. were issued an A, B, C, D or F grade.
Making the 'A' grade were Chelsea Community Hospital, St. Joseph Mercy Ann Arbor, St. Joseph Mercy Livingston, St. Mary Mercy Livonia and St. Joseph Mercy Oakland. St. Joseph Mercy Port Huron received a 'B' rating.
"This distinctive honor reflects the dedication of our physicians and staff to provide high quality care and remarkable patient experiences at all of our SJMHS hospitals," said Garry C. Faja, President and CEO, Saint Joseph Mercy Health System. "The Hospital Safety Score further validates our unrelenting focus on defining and deploying health care processes that place a strong focus on patient safety. This is what Saint Joseph Mercy Health System strives to create each day for our patients and staff."
To see St. Joseph Mercy Ann Arbor's scores as they compare with other hospitals nationally and locally, visit www.hospitalsafetyscore.org, which also provides information on how the public can protect themselves and loved ones during a hospital stay.
The Hospital Safety Score uses 26 measures of publicly available hospital safety data to produce a single score representing a hospital's overall capacity to keep patients safe from infections, injuries, and medical and medication errors. The panel includes: John Birkmeyer (University of Michigan), Ashish Jha (Harvard University), Lucian Leape (Harvard University), Arnold Millstein (Stanford University), Peter Pronovost (Johns Hopkins University), Patrick Romano (University of California, Davis), Sara Singer (Harvard University), Tim Vogus (Vanderbilt University), and Robert Wachter (University of California, San Francisco).
"It's The Leapfrog Group's goal to give patients the information they need and deserve before even entering a hospital," said Leah Binder, president and CEO of The Leapfrog Group. "We congratulate the hospitals that earned an 'A' and we look forward to the day when all hospitals in the U.S. will earn the highest scores for putting patient safety first."
