The Tenth Plague—The Death of the Firstborn
1 Then the Lord said to Moses, "I will bring one more plague on Pharaoh and Egypt. After that he will let you go. When he does, he will be certain to force all of you out of here. 2 Now announce to the people ⌊of Israel⌋ that each man and woman must ask the Egyptians for silver and gold jewelry."
3 The Lord made the Egyptians kind to the people. And Moses was highly respected by Pharaoh's officials and all the Egyptians.
4 Moses said, "This is what the Lord says: About midnight I will go out among the Egyptians. 5 Every firstborn son in Egypt will die, from the firstborn of Pharaoh who rules the land, to the firstborn children of female slaves who use their handmills, including every firstborn domestic animal. 6 There will be loud crying throughout Egypt, such as there has never been or ever will be again. 7 But where the Israelites are, not even a dog will be startled by any person or animal. This is how you will see that the Lord shows the distinction between Egypt and Israel. 8 Then all these officials of yours will come, bow down to me, and say, 'You and all the people who follow you, get out!' After that I will leave." Burning with anger, Moses left Pharaoh.
9 The Lord had said to Moses, "Pharaoh will not listen to you. This is why I will do more amazing things in Egypt." 10 Moses and Aaron showed Pharaoh all these amazing things. Yet, the Lord made Pharaoh stubborn, so he wouldn't let the Israelites leave his country.

- Two 2 1/2 to 3-pound frying chickens, cut in quarters
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter
- 2 tablespoons oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 8 to 10 shallots or 10 to 12 scallions, finely chopped
- 1 cup white wine
- 4 tablespoons fresh tarragon, chopped or 2 tablespoons dried
- 4 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
This recipe contains: Meat
Chicken with Tarragon
James Beard
Author and Educator
Known as Poulet à l'Estragon in French, this simple, classic home-style dish was a favorite of James Beard, especially because it featured his favorite herb, tarragon. The French incorporate tarragon into a myriad of dishes and condiments, from béarnaise sauce to vinegar. And, according to Beard, it's "the best friend a chicken ever had."
Yield: 4 to 6 servings
Melt butter and oil in a covered skillet large enough to hold all the chicken pieces. When the butter is hot, add the chicken pieces skin side down and brown. Turn them over and brown the other side. This will take about 10 minutes. Salt and pepper them well. If you don't have a large enough skillet, after browning the pieces place them in a covered Dutch oven or casserole and continue cooking.
Add the shallots or scallions. Lower the heat, cover the pan, and simmer very, very slowly for 15 to 18 minutes, or 20 minutes if the chickens are on the large side.
Remove the cover, increase the heat slightly, and add the white wine, tarragon, and parsley, scraping up any bits that have stuck to the bottom of the pan. Turn the chicken pieces again, and cook briskly for 3 or 4 minutes to reduce the sauce a little.
Serve with tiny new potatoes.

Utah father-son team has 1-in-3 shot at winning 'Amazing Race'
David and Connor O'Leary have a chance to win "The Amazing Race" in Sunday's 24th-season finale of the CBS reality competition show. And if they do, they'll achieve a number of records.
First parent-child team to win. Oldest contestant (Dave, 59) to win. Tied for youngest contestant (Connor, 22) to win (with the exception of the "Family Edition" in Season 8). First Utahns to win. First Mormons to win.
And undoubtedly the No. 1 "Amazing Race" comeback story. Not only are father and son cancer survivors, but in Season 22 after finishing third, second, first and first in the first four legs the O'Learys were forced to drop out of the race when Dave suffered a ruptured Achilles tendon, and it was "devastating," according to Dave. "I felt like I'd let Connor down."
Connor said he never felt that way. His only concern in returning to the "Race" a year later was that his father might suffer another injury and that he "definitely felt more protective" the second time around.
But the O'Learys have run one of the more successful races in "Amazing Race" history. To date in Season 24, they've finished first in five of 12 legs (including the last three in a row); they've never finished lower than fourth in a leg; the closest they've come to elimination is when they finished fourth out of six in the eighth leg.
If you're unfamiliar with "Amazing Race," two-person teams race from country to country, performing various tasks, overcoming various challenges and trying to be first to the mat at the end of each leg. Those who reach the mat last can be (and eventually are) eliminated.
And the team that wins the 12th and final leg of the race takes home $1 million.
Whatever happens, the O'Learys will not go home empty-handed. For winning five legs of the race, they received a trip to Budapest, $5,000 each, a pair of 2015 Ford Mustangs, a trip to St. Croix and a trip to Fiji.
But what has made them fan favorites is that they're generally upbeat, support one another and genuinely appear to be enjoying themselves on what can be an enormously stressful competition that often has teammates screaming at one another.
"We kind of went into it with the idea that we're going to have fun," Dave said. "If you stay in it for two legs, you have fun.
"You still get to be dirty, cold and hungry. Or dirty, hot and hungry. Plenty of hungry and plenty of dirty," he added with a laugh. "But fun."
Of the three teams remaining in the race, the O'Learys are probably the favorites. They've won those five legs; country singers Caroline Cutbirth and Jennifer Wayne have won zero and are arguably still there only because of help from other teams.
And, while Brendon and Rachel Villegas have won three legs, they're the Team You Love to Hate. Rachel, in particular, has been singularly unlikable.
But the O'Learys insist the best part of "The Amazing Race" is the chance to travel around the world with each other.
"After the first season, where I ruptured my Achilles, we never thought we'd see 'The Amazing Race' again," Dave said on the most recent episode of the show. "So I feel grateful to be in a position to, hopefully, win."
"Winning the race and winning with my dad would be amazing," Connor added. "He would be the oldest person to win 'The Amazing Race.' "
Dave said that would be "significant."
"But the reason I want to win 'The Amazing Race' is not for me. It's for Connor."

Steven Moffat (via smithingly)
Aside from the VlogBrothers and my ego (heh), Doctor Who is quintessential in the existence of Nerdfighters. I mean from the Forums to the Chat there is a very large chance someone is discussing the finer points of the show. As someone who watches it but does not delve too deeply into the inner workings I am intrigued to hear other people's opinions. Such as this review posted by someone on Tumblr of last week's episode: http://thehippestkidsintown.tumblr.com/post/10403225237/doctor-who-... .
Now we come to the season finale next week all eyes are on Matt Smith's incarnation of the Doctor as an intricate plot unfolds leading to his death.
At this point I want to open up the floor and ask "Who is the better Doctor?". David Tennant brought a charm like no other to the role of our favourite wayward Time Lord while Christopher Eccelston gave us a somewhat more rugged Doctor. Matt Smith is presenting us with a more flamboyant version. I would say you cannot pick an overall favourite because they each brought out a different side of the Doctor, but no doubt people will disagree!
Of course they say behind every great man is a great woman, and the Doctor is usually no exception to this. He has managed to get together an eclectic band of companions over the course of the six series, from Rose Tyler, to Amy Pond the companion has always been an integral part of the Whoverse. My personal favourite has to be Martha Jones simply because she was cheeky, and to me stood out more than simply a companion of the Doctor, more an equal in the series. I am likely to get shot down by Pond-fans but hey, everyone is entitled their opinion right?? (Except the Daleks, they are just mean!). That is not discounting Jack Harkness or Rory Williams of course, they too have made their mark in the Doctor;'s life.
Bringing up the subject of Jack Harkness, Torchwood has brought a much darker side of the Whoverse, highlighting the follies of Humanity as much as the aliens of the series. It too brought us another set of very different characters, but do they compare to those in Doctor Who?
So in honour of next week's finale I wish to find out your opinions on anything Who, from the best incarnation to the best companion, or the scariest Villain or the best thought out plot points. The point of this exercise is to determine who you guys rate most, or alternatively dislike the most. I will put together my findings and present them in a neat and tidy little blog next week before the show is due to air in the UK.
So comment below, send a message or discuss in the forum/chat, I'll be looking forward to hearing from you!
Thanks for Reading!

Best Doctor-can't decide between 4, 8, 10 or 11
Best companion-Rose without question
Scariest villian-definitely the Vashta Nerada-I've had at least 3 nightmares about them (trapped in a church with my cousin and loads of other people and this guy out of Waterloo Road (yeah, I'm confused about that bit too) has got two shadows and God, it's scary) and I've also had nightmares about the Peg Dolls (where I was locked in the bathroom with them all waiting outside and I had to escape out the window but they were waiting for me) and the Adiposes (it was weird so I'm not gonna try to explain it).
What I think about Doctor Who-AWESOME!!! I definately believe in aliens and that time travel is possible (I'm disappointed that I'll never get a time-machine though, because I said if I ever get one, I'll come back for me but I never have :( maybe I can't travel back inside my own timeline...)
Say no to Martha Jones! Sorry, but she seemed like a poor incarnation of Rose. Rose and the Doctor had much better chemistry at that. I actually have to love any other companion he had better than Martha.
I agree with Joel Schama. Matt and David have honestly done much better at portraying this iconic character than Chris did. My Doctor however is and always will be Matt and I think Steven Moffat sums it up best in this quote:
Steven Moffat (via smithingly)
Am I the only who who has Christopher Eccelston as their favorite? I love the way he portrays the Doctor, and that strange little smile he does...
Haha I think he make the perfect Doctor
I think Matt Smith's my favourite doctor, but maybe I'm biased 'cause I only properly started watching the episodes about 1 year ago, I caught up on previous episodes but there's something differennt about watching it live, isn't there? My favourite companions are Amy, Donna and Rory :) I think the scariest monsters were either the Vashta Nerada (because I spend so much time in libraries) or the Empty Children (freaked me out for weeks)!! :D
David Tennant is my favorite doctor, then Matt smith, then Christopher.
But then, I think that David Tennant can do no wrong.
DWLY<------Doctor who loves you
It's hard to say who's my favorite Doctor... I might have to go with Matt Smith though, it was with the 11th Doctor that I became obsessed with Doctor Who. He is absolutely amazing and as time goes on he just gets better and better(and he was brilliant to begin with). But I also really really love David Tennant and Tom Baker (I kinda go back and forth on with those 3 on who's my favorite) My first Doctor was Christopher Eccelston, and although he was good and it was because of him that I liked Doctor Who, he's just not my favorite.
Favorite companion? This is sooo hard because I have absolutely loved every single companion of the newer series! But I absolutely adore Rory! I'm a total Doctor/Rose shipper too.
I have to say that the weeping angels totally freak me out but the silence... they're also creepy. And then there's the Cybermen, for some reason I've always liked Cybermen episodes. And I might just get shot for this, but I've never liked the Daleks, they've always gotten on my nerves and I'm glad that there hasn't been a Dalek episode in quite some time.
As far as plot arcs go... well I have to wait till the season is over before I make any final decisions.

New Bonk game on the way to the Wii?

Bonk on the way to Wii?
A Hudson employee has posted a "taste of things to come" in the company's forums, depicting concept art for the long-neglected platform hero Bonk. Bonk was the effective mascot for the TurboGrafx 16, but while reasonably popular, the character hasn't been seen on any console in years. Could a new Bonk game be in the works for Wii? Concept art would certainly suggest so, and he's already set to appear on the system's Virtual Console. Click on "read more" to see the full-sized image.

HUNTER, ROBERT HANCOCK (1813–1902). Robert Hunter Hancock was born on May 1, 1813, in Circleville, Ohio, the fourth of the fourteen children of Mary Martha (Harbert) and Dr. Johnson Calhoun Hunter. The family moved to Texas in March 1822, after a sojourn in Missouri, and in April 1829 moved to Fort Bend County, where the following month the sixteen-year-old Robert Hunter received a grant of one-third league. He joined Capt. James Franklin Perry's company of volunteers and participated in the Grass Fight and the siege of Bexar, but when Lt. Col. William B. Travis issued his appeal for aid in defense of the Alamo, Hunter and his brother John Calhoun Hunter joined Capt. John Bird's company. Its march to San Antonio was intercepted by the news that the Alamo had fallen; Bird's men joined Sam Houston's army as it retreated across Peach Creek. Hunter remained with the army through the San Jacinto campaign, but, perhaps because he was armed only with a Harpers Ferry jaeger rifle, the lock of which "was tied on with a buck skin string" and the "stock & barel was tide to geather with buckskin," he was detached to help guard the baggage train at Harrisburg during the battle. Afterward he was detailed to guard Gen. Antonio López de Santa Anna.
After the Texas Revolution Hunter returned to Fort Bend County, where he engaged in farming and stock raising. By 1840 he reported owning a saddle horse, a silver watch, and twenty-five cattle. The next year he married Samirah M. Beard. The couple had seven children. In January 1845 he moved to Guadalupe County, established a farm and, with his father-in-law, a saw and grist mill on San Geronimo Creek some two miles south of Seguin. In 1850 Hunter estimated the worth of his real estate at $4,000. In 1857 he sold the mill for thirty dollars and moved to Victoria, where in 1860 he composed a colorful and informative reminiscence, based on his diary of his early days in Texas and his role in the Texas Revolution. The manuscript is preserved in the Texas State Archives. In 1936 Beulah Gayle Green edited and published the memoir as the Narrative of Robert Hancock Hunter, 1813–1902. John H. Jenkins IIIqv considered this one of the basic Texas books, and Carlos Castañeda referred to it as "the best account of the San Jacinto campaign left by a veteran." In 1880 Hunter moved to the vicinity of Flatonia in Fayette County. There his wife died in April 1888. Hunter was a Methodist, a member of the Texas Veterans Association, and for most of his life a Democrat. With the rise of populism, however, he shifted his allegiance to the People's party. His brother Thaddeus is said to have been the first white male born in Stephen F. Austin's colony. Hunter died near Flatonia in 1902.

Well this has been going on for about 3 years and I have not been able to get any answers so I am about to take the whole computer out of the car.
When the OPUS is started it will start up for a few second and get to the POST of the computer then turn off, I need to unplug it wait about 2 mins then plug it back in to get it to start up correctly.
It works maybe 5% of the time when I do this and normally takes 6-10 tries to get the computer to boot up.
I am running a normal sized Motherboard, WD 60HD, 512MB Ram and that is all.
Any ideas before I scrap this forever? I have talked to OPUS and all they stated was it was the connector so I took the connectors out of the mix and soldered the wires direct same exact problem.
Before any asks the OPUS is getting a solid 12V-16V never drops below 12V any time.
The car is a 2004 Mazda3 GT

News headlines aren't painting a pretty picture when it comes to the airline industry. Fuel prices continue to climb, airline mergers are all the rage, and customers are feeling frustrated by more fees and less service. If oil reaches $200/ barrel as some folks predict, it is going to shake the industry even more. The shakeout will come in the form of higher prices (everywhere…not just for air tickets) and reduced options.
So, how are things at CAK? In short, we are still in the game....

An Update on Microsoft Lync
In our 2013-14 Enterprise Technology Benchmark released last summer we found that 55% of participating companies were moving to, assessing a move to, or planning to move to a new IP telephony platform in 2014. For most, the move is still away from legacy TDM, in only 19% of cases were organizations moving from one IPT system to another. Of those already moving or planning to move, 13% were going to Microsoft, the same percentage as those going to Avaya, while 23% were heading to Cisco. About a third hadn't picked a vendor yet. No other vendor had more than 4%. This data shows that Microsoft has gained substantial ground in the IP telephony market and is now one of the "big three" along with Avaya and Cisco that enterprises evaluate for their IP telephony initiatives.
Still, the profile of those adopting Lync (as we noted in our 2012 report "Microsoft Lync Reality Check") remains largely unchanged – large companies, with an aggressive view toward technology, who already have a Microsoft enterprise licensing agreement, who have already deployed Lync for IM/web conferencing and other Microsoft apps such as Exchange and SharePoint, and who are comfortable with a softphone-centric environment. Those with recent investments in Avaya and Cisco tend to look at ways that they can integrate their existing infrastructure with Lync rather than replace not-yet-depreciated systems with Lync.
One of the big questions that those who are evaluating Lync ask is "does it work"? In our currently underway 2014-15 ET Benchmark we're gathering data on softphone call quality for IPT vendors, so far we're not seeing any differences in ratings of Lync versus other vendors, but we're still early in in our data gathering process. One area where we did see Lync issues is in total cost of operation, in our 2013 UC and IPT TCO report we noted that Lync operational costs were significantly higher than those of leading competitors, largely as a result of the newness of the system, and the need for companies to come up to speed on managing a multi-vendor environment since Microsoft doesn't sell its own phones, gateways, video endpoints, or session border controllers. We'll release revised data gathered at the end of 2013 and early 2014 shortly, stand by for an update….

Joanna may be unlucky in love but she's not unlucky in sex. But then that may depend on how she defines it. And what she wants to get out of it.
After another tough breakup with her boyfriend, Joanna goes out with her friends on New Year's Eve and realizes she always over-thinks her relationships. When she agrees love doesn't have to come before sex—and sex doesn't always equate to love—she gives herself the ultimate New Year's Eve resolution, to sleep with a new man every day for a full year.
Joanna thinks she will enjoy getting in touch with her inner slut. But is having more sexual encounters, in all variations and with an infinite variety of partners, the answer to her hang-ups? What Joanna will learn is connections are stronger when you don't work at it, and sexual ecstasy doesn't have to be planned, perfect, or forever.
365 is the sexually explicit memoir of Joanna and her year of sex. Joanna's Candide-like journey illustrates how a regular well-adjusted, professional single woman can embrace her own desires, let go of her preconceptions about romance, and not feel ashamed about wanting love without first trading the house keys.
