Parallel CommentariesMatthew Henry's Concise Commentary
2:1-9 Those who earnestly seek heavenly wisdom, will never complain that they have lost their labour; and the freeness of the gift does not do away the necessity of our diligence, Joh 6:27. Let them seek, and they shall find it; let them ask, and it shall be given them. Observe who are thus favoured. They are the righteous, on whom the image of God is renewed, which consists in righteousness. If we depend upon God, and seek to him for wisdom, he will enable us to keep the paths of judgment.
Pulpit Commentary
Verse 6. - For the Lord giveth wisdom. The Lord Jehovah is the only and true Source of wisdom. The truth stated here is also met with in Daniel 2:21, "He giveth wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to them that know understanding." He "giveth," or more properly, "will give" (יִתֵּן yitten, future of נָתַן, nathan), wisdom; but the connection requires us to understand that the assurance applies only to those who seek after it earnestly and truly (cf. James 1:5-7). The two coefficients to our obtaining wisdom are our efforts and God's assistance. Solomon may be adduced as s striking exemplification of this; he asked for "an understanding heart," and God graciously granted his request (see 1 Kings 3:9, 12). Out of his mouth (מִפִיו, mippiv); ex ore ejus; God is here spoken of anthropologically. He is the true Teacher. The meaning is that God communicates wisdom through the medium of his Word (Delitzsch. Pi.). The law proceeds from his mouth (Job 22:22). In the Book of Wisdom (7:25), "Wisdom is the breath of the power of God." His word is conveyed to us through men divinely inspired, and hence St. Peter (2 Peter 1:21) says that "holy men of old spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost."
Gill's Exposition of the Entire Bible
For the Lord giveth wisdom,.... Natural wisdom in all its branches, with all its improvements, and in its utmost latitude and perfection; and spiritual wisdom, which lies in the knowledge of a man's self, his own folly, impurity, impotence, and misery; being wise unto salvation; in the knowledge of Christ, as the only way of salvation, and of God in Christ; in partaking of the true grace, which is wisdom in the hidden part; in being acquainted experimentally with the doctrines of the Gospel; and in walking wisely and circumspectly, and as becomes it, which is practical wisdom: and all this is the gift of God; as is also Christ, who is wisdom, and is given to be wisdom to his people. He is the gift of God to them, in all characters he bears, and relations he stands in; he is a very large comprehensive gift, an unspeakable one; which is given freely and liberally, and is never taken away again. Now this is said, partly to caution such who search after wisdom, and find it, not to attribute it to their diligence and industry, but to the grace of God; and partly as a direction where to go for it; and as an encouragement to hope to have it, since the Lord freely gives it, James 1:5;
out of his mouth cometh knowledge and understanding; by the prophets of the Old Testament who came with a "Thus saith the Lord", and were the mouth of the Lord to the people; from whence flowed the knowledge of divine things; of the will of God; of the Messiah, his person and offices; of his coming, sufferings, death and salvation by him: and by his Son, by whom he has spoke in these last days, and has declared all his mind; and by whom the doctrines of grace and truth, and the knowledge of them, are come fully and clearly, Hebrews 1:1; and by the Scriptures of truth, both of the Old and of the New Testament, which are the word of God; what are breathed by him and come out of his mouth, and are able to make men wise unto salvation: and by the ministers of the Gospel, who speak in the name of the Lord, and the Lord by them; and by means of whom he imparts much spiritual and evangelical knowledge to the sons of men; the mouth of a Gospel minister, who is the month of God to men, "speaketh wisdom, and his tongue talketh of judgment", Psalm 37:30. This clause is added, to encourage to a search after wisdom in the use of means; namely, by attending on the word, and the ministry of it.
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary
6. For—God is ready (Jas 1:5; 4:8).
out of his mouth—by revelation from Him.
Proverbs 2:6 Additional Commentaries

The Pitt County Sheriff's Office is asking for help from all local farmers.
Wesley Warren, 22, of Lloyd Corey Road in Stokes, was arrested back in February for stealing several peanut trailers from Pitt, Martin, and Bertie Counties, and claiming them as his own.
All trailer owners, except one, have been notified.
The trailers were sold to local recycling companies, and this weekend, the unclaimed trailer, worth more than $1,000, will be crushed.
Detectives are asking all peanut farmers in Pitt and surrounding counties to double-check if their equipment is safe.
If you think you may have the missing peanut trailer, you are asked to call detectives at (252) 902-2823 or (252) 802-4141 with a detailed description of the trailer so the equipment can be returned to its owner before it is destroyed.

iHerb Customer Reviews
I've been eating Navitas cacao products for several years now (mostly the nibs, though, lately, not the powder). I was horrified to read the Consumer Lab report that just came out. It found extremely high levels of cadmium (though no lead, at least), in Navitas Naturals cacao powder. Alas, I will be switching brands.
Tried to make hot chocolate with this... It was so delicious... so euphoric... What I did was to mix two table spoons with this powder, two equal parts with coconut crystals, and then filled up the cup with warm milk... stirred it... and there I was: in Chocolate Heaven!

Great for coconut chocolate
Posted by Reviewer3181965 on Jun 24, 2012
I used this product to make coconut chocolate; it turned out great! Good quality and taste. Some of the negative reviews concern bitter taste. Raw cocoa powder is bitter. Some kind of sweetener is required to make it more palatable.

Dark as a Cup of Coffee Raw Chocolate
Posted by wholefoods on Aug 13, 2012
I bought a bag of this product intending to use it as a sweet chocolate cocoa mix, like the kind grandma used to make. When I put the powder into a coffee mug and stirred it, it ended up tasting more like a cup of dark coffee. Not that that is a bad thing. There isn't anything sweet about this product. It is very dark tasting and bitter. At first I couldn't get used to the taste. Now, I drink a cup or two a day at work in place of coffee. I appreciate that this product is filled with iron, magnesium, protein, fiber, healthy fats, and a host of antioxidants. It also makes me feel calm after drinking a cup, probably a combination of the caffeine and other components of the raw cacoa. Also, because Navitas specializes in whole foods products, including cacoa in all its manifestations, I trust the quality. Highly recommended!

Cacao powder testimonial
Posted by Reviewer2990970 on Jan 04, 2010
I have been using this product for several months. It is extremely effective at controlling my hypertension. I haven't had to use statins forr several years now. Before treatment with statins, my blood pressure was somewhere around 140/90. The best I was able to achieve using statin prescription medicine was around 130/90. My blood pressure levels are now consistently around 120/80 using the raw cacao powder.

Developing economy India has forged a memorandum of
understanding (MoU) with Afghanistan which outlines a cooperation
for the development of the war-torn country's iron and steel
Indian steel minister Shri Beni Prasad Verma went to Kabul to
sign the MoU on Monday with Afghan mines minister Wahidullah
In a press conference, both Verma and Shahrani said the MoU
permits Indian state and private firms to mine iron ore as well
as invest in future steel production in Afghanistan. Shahrani
hoped the Indian state and private firms will be likewise willing
to invest and provide vocational training for Afghan workers in
ore extraction and steel technologies, Radio Free Europe/Radio
Liberty reported.
Verma noted in the same press conference that India is
likewise interested to invest in natural gas and oil in
The MoU signified India's strong desire in joining a global
race to secure mineral assets, such as iron ore, and more lately,
gold and copper in Afghanistan. In November, Kabul awarded
to a consortium of seven Indian companies, led by
state-owned Steel Authority of India (SAIL), the mining
rights to develop the huge Hajigak deposit in
Central Afghanistan.
Located in Bamyan Province, the iron ore rich Hajigak mine
holds the best known and largest iron oxide deposit in
Afghanistan. It extends over 32 kilometres and covers 16 separate
zones, up to 5 kilometres in length, 380 metres wide and
extending 550 metres down. The mine could give up to $6 billion
to the government's coffers.
On May, the SAIL consortium and Afghanistan government are
expected to sign a final agreement that will pave the way for the
development of the Hajigak iron ore mine, including building a
steel and power plant there.
"The negotiations on Hajigak's contract details, which include
building of rail road, steel industry, power plant and others,
would be finalized at the end of May and the final contract may
be signed in May this year," Shahrani said.
The Afghan government, eager to rebuild its nation as well as
attract foreign direct investment, had been proclaiming it holds
an estimated $3 trillion in natural resources. The deposits,
which yield copper and iron ore, oil and gas, niobium, cobalt,
gold, molybdenum, silver and lithium, could lift the country's
coffers by some $3.5 billion a year.
The Hajigak mine holds an estimated two billion tonnes of iron
ore deposits and is expected to begin by 2015.
India is among the world's largest steel producers.

WILLARD, N.C. (AP) - Nearly 80 animals have been rescued from a Pender County site after someone complained about a sick puppy.
The Humane Society of the United States said Wednesday that the sheriff's office served a search warrant on the property and found large and small-breed dogs and puppies suffering from a multitude of untreated medical conditions. The dogs were living outside in wire chicken coops and in a breeze way filled with filth.
Deputies also found chickens, three calves, a horse and a goat on the property. The society said the owner agreed to surrender the animals.
Authorities have transported the dogs to a temporary emergency animal shelter where they will be examined by veterinarians and receive any necessary medical treatment.

U.S. Nearing End of Major Insider-Trading Probe
"'Illegal insider trading is rampant and may even be on the rise,' Bharara said in a speech last month to the New York City Bar Association. But he cautioned: 'It has perhaps never been more difficult to attack through traditional investigative means.' Bharara said the challenges include the innovations that allow stock trading at such high speeds and in such high volume that it can be difficult to pinpoint specific transactions completed with the advantage of inside information. He said the growth in the number of financial newsletters, Web sites, blogs and social media outlets 'publishing every last rumor and report of potential mergers and acquisitions and earnings reports' has made it easier for those accused of insider trading to claim they acted on the basis of something they read. Bharara also defended the use of wiretaps to investigate insider trading cases…'Some have asked, why use court-authorized wiretaps in insider trading cases?' Bharara said in the speech. 'The quick answer is that every legitimate tool should be at our disposal - especially where, as in the case of insider trading, an essential element of the crime is a communication.'"

California's Rain Leaves 26 Beach Closures, 200 Polluted Beaches
Posted by: Beach Reporter In: beaches| california
We love our beaches in California. But we love them to death. The majority of the state's population lives within 50 miles of the Pacific Ocean, and the impacts during rain and storms is great. Trash, oil, and all sorts of pollutants travel through storm drains up to 50 miles from the beach, arriving in the ocean during rain storms.
This week provides an example of the impacts. There are 26 beach closures in San Diego, Los Angeles area and San Francisco, and 200 failing grades at beaches throughout throughout the state. With too many to actually list, we'll provide some tips on what to do and what to think about.
Shown in the photos above are beautiful birds at a wetlands with a tidal inlet that gets a good washing during rains. The bird waste flows into the sea, contributing to the water quality problem in places where people visit, play, surf & swim.
If you and your curious children like to visit the beach and wander after the rain, it is recommended to keep the kids out of the water for 72 hours (or 3 days). If the kids go in the water, get them to rinse off right away.
Beachcombing isn't just enjoyed by humans. Shore birds scavenge for food amongst the rubble and refuge that washes ashore after a storm. The picture above (right) taken during this recent event does not fairly represent all the trash mixed into the seaweed and other debris. But if you wander the beach, you'll find an amazing assortment of trash–balls, shoes, cans, bottles, lids, plastic items, rubber, wood, medical waster, syringes, drugs, and an odd assortment of toys. Hungry birds often mistake the smaller objects as food. These items block their digestive tract, causing death.
Over 1000 miles of coastal sands were washed during the latest storm, rendering nearly half the beaches in the state unsuitable for humans to visit and enjoy. While each of us can make small contributions and we can consciously decide to avoid unsafe waters, the other 75% of the planet that lives in the water doesn't have that option. And when they go…so do we, according to the principles of the food chain and sustainability for life.
Small ways to help: Consume less throw-away products when you eat, sign up for a beach clean-up, and recycle everything you can.

Poet and novelist Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie has written a beautiful response to the passing of Nigeria's anti-gay law. The law, passed on January 7th, has already led to dozens of arrests. A similar bill looks likely to pass soon in Uganda, where President Yoweri Museveni announced last week that - after getting hopes up otherwise - he does intend to sign the bill into law. The legislation itself provides for life imprisonment for some homosexual acts, makes it a crime not to report gay people to the authorities and prohibits any discussion of homosexuality that is not condemnatory.
In her piece Adichie systematically takes on the familiar knee-jerk responses of her homophobic interlocutors: being gay is un-African, being gay leads to bestiality, gay men are pedophiles, being gay isn't "normal", being gay is "un-Christian". To each she provides a calm but incisive smack-down. Seriously, Beyoncé, all we need now is for you to put this to music immediately.

Dear Friends and Family of Daniel Pearl, I wanted to say, how touched and inspired I am by Daniel Pearl and his family: Judea, Ruth and Maryanne ("Bittersweet Symphonies," Sept. 29). His legacy will live on and be a shining light to the world.

And the dove called
Your Yom Kippur issue had many great articles, but the one that moved me to tears was Anne Brener's beautiful description of going back to her flooded hometown to be of service, alongside her poem urging all of us to keep our hearts open to form circles of witness and consolation wherever we might be ("...And the Dove Called," Sept. 29). She is a national treasure and I hope if anyone didn't get a chance to read her poem/prayer "Unatana Tokef," please go back to read it and carry it with you each year. It is one of the finest expressions of Jewish strength and compassion I've ever seen.

Silent synagogues
I have been a member of a conservative synagogue all my life. In the mid-'60s, I lived in the Midwest and was the president of my USY chapter. In my community, my rabbi was the first clergyman to speak against the Vietnam War. In fact, the rabbinate took a lead role in protesting that horrible conflict.
Now I live in the San Fernando Valley. At our High Holiday services this year we heard words about anti-Semitism in the world and genocide in Darfur but, unfortunately, the white elephant in the room was entirely ignored. I believe the white elephant is being ignored as a conscious choice.
The moral issues of our time are not only our country's continuous presence in Iraq but issues emanating from that conflict.
For the most part, synagogues throughout the country (and their leadership) have been silent on these monumental issues.
Why? This disappoints me greatly. If my religion does not speak up now then I question its value altogether.

Who shall die?
I can't read those Sunday L.A. Times military obits without choking up ("And Who Shall Die," Sept 22). One a few months ago about a good-natured, gentle 19-year-old kid from Huntington Beach who loved to surf Trestles and Swamis with his high school pals stuck with me. Every time I drive down Highway 1 past Swamis in Encinitas and look out at all the wet suited surfers I think "He should still be surfing, not dead in an unjustified war."
If even one more person starts reading those obits because of your column, you'll have done a major mitzvah.

An evangelical Yom Kippur
I write to clarify a quote from last week's article on the Rev. Kevin Dieckilman ("Pastor Stages Yom Kippur Service for Evangelicals," Sept. 29). I find Dieckilman's use of Jewish rituals and symbols on Yom Kippur historically significant insofar as he is not seeking to convert Jews. That would indeed be a novelty. If in fact the goal is conversion, then I fear that we are witnessing an old and unfortunate supersessionist tack.

RJC ads
Unlike many readers of The Jewish Journal I am pleased to see the ads from the Republican Jewish Coalition. It's high time we Jews aligned ourselves with the party that is actively fighting Islamic extremism and correctly supports Israel's right to defend itself.
I can't help wondering whether those opposed to the ads have bothered to take inventory of the company they keep. More often than not, those against American foreign policy are Pro-Palestinian, left-leaning apologists for Islamo-Fascism. The charge that Republicans are fear-mongering or trading off imagined threats is beyond the pale. Would these same charges be leveled against the Israeli government? Are their fears not justified? Is the terror they face not real?
It's more than a little disappointing that two generations removed fromthe Holocaust there remains an alarming number of Jews who do not recognize the enemy and who will not fight the enemy.
I am not one of them.

Left-wing intolerance and personal attacks continue to characterize the anti-Republicans. They throw mud, and then complain about dirty politics.
David Winick
San Diego
The level of hysteria and irrationality expressed in the letters criticizing the recent ads sponsored by Republican Jewish Coalition is really over the top. The ads are factual. The quotes from former President Carter are exactly that -- verbatim quotes.
Whether or not the war in Iraq was a good idea or well-executed is no longer the issue -- at this point in time, an anti-war, isolationist-motivated pullback from the Middle East would be disastrous for the United States and the state of Israel, which is exactly the direction that Democratic Party is headed and is why they tossed Lieberman out. Maybe the future of Israel or whether Iran is allowed to develop nuclear weapons is less important to some readers than other issues, such as abortion or school choice, but you can't always get everything you want in politics. I know where my priorities are.
Richard A. Horvitz
Mayfield Heights, Ohio
So the Jewish left is upset that the RJC points out how Democrats have broken the bipartisan consensus in support of Israel. Well, they are all just following their leaders. Democratic party chair Howard Dean pronounced moral equivalence as our Middle East policy, and Bill and Hillary Clinton frequently hosted and even embraced Yasser Arafat and his wife.
The truth hurts, Democrats!
Dick McDonald
Enough from leftist Jews who remain uninterested in the truth about anti-Semitism and anti-Zionism.
First, when AIPAC [the American Israel Public Affairs Committee] and the RJC [Republican Jewish Coalition] and the mainstream Jewish community supported congressional legislation to oppose U.S. funding of Hamas, Americans for Peace Now and other groups whose policies have long been discredited, lobbied for funding Hamas, confusing lawmakers.
Next, while The Jewish Federation and American Jewish Committee and StandWithUs and a host of Jewish activists opposed the L.A. County Human Relations Commission Award to Dr. Maher Hathout, who has labeled Israel an apartheid state full of butchers, the Progressive Jewish Alliance supported this disgrace. Finally, we cannot open up The Jewish Journal without reading letters bashing Christians. We know all about the Inquisition and Crusades of centuries ago in Europe. We also know America's Christians today are a tremendous supporter in keeping Israel safe from Radical Islam, European boycott, the nefarious International Court of Justice, and a hate filled United Nations General Assembly.
Our non-Jewish neighbors shake their head in disbelief at the stubborn attitudes of aging Jewish liberals.
Norman Epstein
Thousand Oaks
Each week The Jewish Journal is straddled with letters on which of the two "old line" parties represents the best interests of American Jewry. May I offer the obvious thought that neither of them, Democrats or Republicans, are anything to "write home about" and we'd all do well to be rid of both corporate parties! Neither party has done much of anything to provide meaningful health insurance for all Americans, turn around the terrible state of affairs whereby less than 30 percent of innercity African American males even bother to graduate high school these days, or reduce our nation's dependence on foreign oil.
If we really want the United States to be strong enough to continue to be the one true friend the Jewish State can count on American Jews would abandon the both the Democrats and Republicans and work for a real alignment in U.S. politics.
David L. Blatt
Chicago, Ill.
Let me see if I have this correct:
The Democrats litigate an election (2000), filibuster and demagogue quite decent judicial nominations (Justices Roberts and Alito), obstruct any reform and electioneer by fear (social security), lie about the budget deficit and threaten impeachment if they take the House.
Democrats also call the president a loser (Sen. Harry Reid), Republicans a party of white Christians who do not work for a living (Chairman Harry Dean), Iraq a mistake (ask Israelis if they are glad Saddam is gone) and refuse to co-sponsor the vote for Israel at war (Rep. Nancy Pelosi).
Then, when the Republican Jewish Coalition raises concerns about the declining support on issues important to Jews and Israel by the Democrat party, which hosted Arafat at the White House 23 times (President Clinton), they call the GOP partisan.
The Jewish Journal then prints mean-spirited letters attacking the RJC. I wonder if you will dare print mine.

Barney Ross
Your Sept. 22 book review noted that during the late 1940s, my uncle, boxing champion Barney Ross, "ran guns to Israel and tried to set up a Jewish-American brigade to fight in the Middle East at the time of Israel's War of Independence" ("In the Ring, at the Front, Boxer Barney Ross Packed a Punch").
But that was not all that Barney did for the Jewish people. Thanks to research by the David S. Wyman Institute for Holocaust Studies, we know that several years earlier, during the Holocaust, Uncle Barney was active in the Emergency Committee to Save the Jewish People of Europe, also known as the Bergson group. These activists used full-page newspaper ads, public rallies, and Capitol Hill lobbying to pressure the Roosevelt administration to rescue Jews from Hitler.
In fact, one of the first things Barney did after returning to the U.S. from his military service (where he was decorated with the Silver Star for rescuing wounded comrades from the battlefield at Guadalcanal) was to donate his mustering-out pay to purchase tickets for 150 U.S. soldiers to attend a fundraising event that the Emergency Committee held at Madison Square Garden in early 1944.
My uncle's accomplishments outside the ring were as important as the boxing skills that won him the junior welterweight, welterweight, and lightweight championships in the 1930s.
Barney Ross fought the good fight, inside and outside the ring. He fought for America in World War II, and he fought for the Jewish people in his efforts on behalf of Holocaust rescue and Jewish statehood. That is a powerful and inspiring example for today's Jewish athletes to follow.

Cost of Judaism
Being a Jew, not spiritually rather monetarily, is costly! The Jewish religion dictates that not one should ever be turned down or sent away if one arrives to the "House of God" to say a prayer.
However, during High Holidays, most of the "prestigious" synagogues turn down and send away Jews who come to say High Holiday prayer but do not hold a ticket. Not everyone can afford having a membership in a synagogue or the least a ticket to High Holiday services.
Since when did God demand one must buy a ticket to allow one to participate in a prayer at his home?
I do not know any church that will turn a believer coming to pray on Christmas Day. Do you?
We all understand that the upkeep of a synagogue is high. However, did any rabbi or Jewish leader ever give a moment of thought that the more people they turn down or send away on High Holidays, the more risk they take in losing more Jews who simply try to belong? And we complain about assimilation?
The Jewish leaders, and the bureaucrats who manage synagogues, are the cause for our diminishing numbers.
Time has come to make a change in approach. Keep the synagogue doors open to everyone whether they hold a "membership ticket"or not. Allow everyone the few hours of prayer no matter what! Or our numbers will become far less!

Hi all, i'm an artist that has been hired to oversee the refinishing of 12 bar tables I created about 4 years ago. The problem is I just did the artwork on the tables and then handed them over to the old owner of the restaurant who had them finished with a layer of pourable epoxy resin about 1/8"-1/4" thick. They are scratched and some have yellow-brown spotches all over them (i'm assuming the heat from the plates maybe?). He wants them to look new again but I have no idea how to fix the epoxy coating. Anyone have any advice on refinishing this type of resin surface? I've read that it can be sanded and then repoured but I can't seem to find specific information. Any advice would be awesome! And if anyone knows someone living near the Memphis, TN area that has experience refinishing this stuff tell them to email me at firstname.lastname@example.com about a potential job! Thanks in advance!
Welcome to WOODs Forums. You chose the best there is.
Recognizing that you will get a lot of great advice concerning your poured epoxy table top concerns, here's an idea you might try.
Go to an auto body Supply store and get a polishing compound called "Finness." (sp) It's a very fine grit liquid that is applied with a power buffer that has a lambs wool "bonnet" on it. It's used to buff out automobile paint jobs.
If the scratches are no too deep, or the coloration is shallow, The Finness might remove the imperfections. If the scratches are removed, but the coloration is still there, you may have to sand the surfaces with a random orbit sander with several grits of paper and then polish with the Finness.
The epoxy coating is trash, and was a bad idea from day one. Four years sounds about right for the life expectancy of the epoxy coating. Of course, if the bar owner wants to have the same epoxy thing, you can have a sort of annuity, re-making table tops every four years.
Better to arrange for new table tops to be painted by you, and then properly coated by an professional operation that that the facilities to use suitably durable top coat materials. Conversion varnish or two-k polyurethane top coats could be much more durable than any process that can be handled in a small shop. Before actually repainting the artwork, be sure to arrange the top coating so you can work in media that will be compatible.
There are coatings, of oil based varnish, that would easily outlast the epoxy used by the bar owner, but those are oil based and could cause significant color shift. There are some relatively light colored varnishes (Pratt & Lambert 38) but these are as tough as the darker, more prone to yellow over time, phenolic resins.
Remember to make it clear you retain the copyright on the art so he can't hire a hack to copy them.
I think YOU had better re-think your answer to the OP, sir. There is not one word of help in your post. It tends to leave a bad impression about our forums to someone new here. A solution to his problem (ala Larry) is a lot better than chewing the OP out, and calling work he did not even do "trash". I think one could do better than that, sir.
That aside, one could buff out shallow scatches and such. Afterall, they do it with auto-body work. Once the scratches are buffed out, one could then re-coat with a similar product. Even if the "stains" are still there, the artist in you could alter the art work just a hair, and make a "statement" with the stained areas. Blend them in if need be.
…permit me to welcome you to the WOOD Magazine Forums, particularly to the Finishing & Refinishing Forum. I hope you will visit often. You will find a number of accomplished woodworkers and finishers here who stand ready to assist you with your finishing and refinishing questions.
That said, I believe you are dealing with a problem that cannot be satisfactorily resolved. These pour-on epoxy bar-top coatings have been the subject of a number of posts on this forum over the years. For the most part the advice is consistently not to use this "finish" in applications where long term durability and aesthetics are important. Your description of the condition of the tabletops; scratched, yellow-brown splotches and probably also cloudy is precisely what can be expected. Unfortunately, there is no effective (and certainly no simple) repair. Sadly, the "ugly" goes all the way through. You may want to engage in a bit of after-the-fact homework to confirm the universal nature of the problem you face. Visit a few watering holes in your area and carefully examine the condition of their tables (if similarly finished) that have been in service for more than a year or two.
Buffing, as has been suggested, will likely not polish the surface to anything near its original look. More likely, it will uniformly cloud or dull the surface since the epoxy is not all that hard and therefore does not polish well. There is a world of difference between buffing and polishing a hard (very hard) automotive finish applied over metal and doing the same to one of these relatively soft epoxy coatings applied over wood ("relatively soft"? Why else would it scratch so badly in just four-years?). It is also quite probable that a fair number of the "scratches" are actually very fine hair-line cracks. If that is the case, polishing will do nothing to eliminate them.
The only relatively simple solution that I can see that will bring some temporary relief from the problem is the application of a thin topcoat of the same "finish". It will do nothing to eliminate the staining; but, it may temporarily mask the scratches and impart renewed "gloss" to the tables while replacements are being made. For the new tables, glass tops, or even replicable acrylic tops to protect your artwork will last much longer. Conversion varnish or a two-part finish could be professionally applied as has already been suggested, but even these will suffer over time in the envirionment of a bar.
I'm sorry. I'm sure this is not what you wanted to hear; but, it is the reality of these pour-on epoxy finishes in heavy use environments. They are a short-term throw away finish best applied to furniture with a similar life expectancy...
Like Gary would say.. +1, Dawg.
Ok, here's a thought. One could abrade the surface down far enough to remove the stains, then buff out that surface to minimize the scratches. A re-coat of the same epoxy coating would then fill in the scratches that are left.
Any attempt to strip away all of the "bad" epoxy (aka "Junk") would also strip away any artwork below it. Replacing the "bad" epoxy with a "prefered" brand of finish would have an impact on the colours in the artwork. Almost like wanting to put varnish on the Mona Lisa to protect it.
Auto body "clear coats" are an option here. You could abrade the old finish down to get rid of the deep scratches and stains. Then, spray on a few coats of the "clear coat". You would have to clean the surface of the epoxy for the clear coat to stick to the epoxy.
Bar tables get scratches, spills, and various hot items on them all the time. Unless one adds a layer of tempered glass to the surface, one will have a "re-finishing" job every now and then. Old scratched and beat up bar tables have a certain allure to them. Each scratch and dent would tell a story about that bar. Old Tavern Tables are prized for these "defects" by collectors. If the tables owner wants them to look like new, you'll have a re-occurring "re-finishing job" to count on down the road. Almost like a mechanic working on a Ford, he knows you'll be back.
One other idea has come up. Go to the "general" woodworking pages, and look at the post by Handyman John. Called "A thousand casts". Great info.
Man, Dawg, you get on Amateur 60 about trashing epoxy coating (to the OP, I know nothing about epoxy coating) and then you turn around and trash my F-150. I like my F-150 (LOL).
Spending time trying to rehabilitate these table tops would be a bad idea, not likely to work well, and certainly not likely to last for any time. That's good advise. Remember the OP didn't do the bad deed (ie. epoxy) just the art work. And, buffing epoxy isn't anything like color sanding auto paint.
As Steve agreed, there are dramatically better bar table finishes that the epoxy , I'll agree with him that none are permanant or really even close.
You did mention one thing in one of your later posts that does make sense. Glass tops, to cover the art work, would add dramatically to the life.

My New Business Card Design. Can I Get Some Opinions, Please?
In my opinion, at least, any real business has a calling card. It's sometimes the first (and possibly last) impression a potential client will get about you or your business, so it has to present you at your best. I can't help but wonder what kinds of reactions Mark Zuckerberg, the creator and owner of Facebook, receives when he presents his to someone. Notice the blue bar on the bottom? I would be willing to wager that it's the exact shade of blue that Facebook uses; most likely trademarked, too. And in case your wondering, it really is his business card.
I haven't bought any in a while, so I wanted to make this batch special. Down with the plain, white has-card of yesteryear! 🙂 After slaving for almost 2 weeks over the final layout, I was able to come up with a fairly simple, but attractive design that I very much like.
The most important feature I was looking for was the visual design, itself, of course. I am a very creative person, by nature, and very visual oriented, too, so I definitely wanted it to be original, eye-popping and memorable.
Secondly, and I still don't care what anyone else thinks, I LOVE dark designs, and I kept with that theme, as well. If you like my blog design, then you'll probably like my initial card design, too.
Third, I have a number of skills that I market separately, so I needed a way of using every inch of real-estate on each of the business cards. I toyed briefly with the idea of a slightly larger-than-average card size, and even a few tent-shaped ones, but I just couldn't get past the odd shapes. In the end, I decided to use the standard-sized cards, but I will be ordering several different designs for each of my businesses.
Lastly, I needed the card to be sturdy. As a general rule, a flimsy card gets thrown away pretty quickly, and I wanted people to keep my cards around, if nothing else because of the artistic value. You never know when that card they got 6 months ago all of the sudden winds up coming in handy, right? To combat this, I will be ordering a special coating on them that will make them virtually water- and tear-resistant.
The pic below shows the designs on both sides, and they are what I came up with to showcase both my personal and main business websites on a single card, utilizing both the back and the front. The final product will have a metallic platinum finish but, unfortunately, it kind of blurs some of the text in the images below. I have talked to the printer, and he assures me that the actual cards, however, will not be blurry like the pics, and will be easy to read. I'm trusting him for a small batch first to verify that, and if all goes well I will be ordering a batch of 5,000 to start me out. I can't wait!
And this is where you guys come in, if you don't mind: I would deeply appreciate any opinions, suggestions, critiques, etc., as in the end, it really doesn't matter what I like if the people receiving the cards aren't impressed right away.
EDIT: Received my new business cards today and they are the FO-SHIZZLE! I couldn't be more pleased. The font is a bit hard to read (no fault of the printer, though), so for my next order I will be increasing the font by one size and changing the light gray text to white. Other than those 2 slight improvements, I can't wait to start passing these suckers out to people.
So what does everyone think? Any other designs you think I might be interested in? Want to share some pics of some extreme designs you've found? Let me know in a comment below.

We started the Platenworm record shop on november the 27th of august 2000. We started in the city Groningen, also known as RockCity no 1, and later moved to Amsterdam. All the credit for the RockCity thing goes to the world famous Vera club. We started the shop in the first place because we love all kinds of music.
With our new store we immediately wanted to get our own garden, not only for our employees but also for our customers to come and relax in. So we called Hovenier Amsterdam and they delivered a perfect city garden.
Another important reason for running the Platenworm is that we still think vinyl is great and there are not to many recordstores left that share that feeling. The last and main reason for doing it is that we are missing a lot of great music in other local recordstores. So, we are trying to fill some gaps!
Our main focus is the real independent and underground scene. That goes from minimal, experimental and electronic music to punk, rock, pop, hardcore and so on. We also have a big reggae section because it's one of Pieter's passions. Further there are some sidetracks like hip hop, blues, soul, funk etc. And also some mainstream so called alternative stuff that we do to pay the rent. To make a long story short just check it out and let us know what you think or want…
Within our store we've had quite the issues lately, power outages, leaks, you name it. Luckily we were able to find some cheap companies in Amsterdam that could help us out quite quickly, as we did have to protect all of our records of course. So for that, thanks to Electricien Amsterdam and Klusbedrijf Amsterdam. But we can't forget Tegelzetter Amsterdam and who helped us immediately.
Running an independant, vinyl record shop is not easy and certainly is not a money spinner. We work long days, for little money and pogften depend on the generous assistance of people and companies that like what we do. We would like to thank some of these people and companies. They are: Phillipe de Groot, Casper Lenders, Michael Bravure, our Boekhouder in Amsterdam and our friend Antoine, or legal aid, notaris and very relaxed land lord.
And thanks to our land lord for paying Stucadoor Amsterdam when our walls came down and we lacked the funds to get them rebuild. Without that, our store would look a lot messier.
See you in Amsterdam!

5 year old added fish to tank - can anyone ID this fish?
2 Attachment(s)
My 5 year old went to Lady Bird Lake (aka Town Lake) here in Austin TX, captured 2 of these fish and promptly dropped them into our freshwater tank. They have survived the last week with 3 corydora cats and 3 Rasbora Heteromorphas. Can anyone ID this fish?
Mosquitofish, maybe Gambusia affinis
Mosquito fish
Yep. Those are mosquito fish Gambusia spp. Great pictures you have of them, tho. I think those two are young females. The care for them is much like guppies, but they can get a little nippy.
The anecdote is humorous, but perhaps you should try to teach the youngster (gently) that it is not a good idea to do this.
Had the fish been texas cichlid fry, you would soon have a few less rasboras to worry about.
If the wild fish have any diseases or parasites, their hasty addition to your tank could have dire consequences.
Forgive me: I don't want to be DEBBIE DOWNER! (WAA WUUH!) I think it is great that you are sharing this hobby with your child. And I think it is wonderful that the child has an interest and passion already for living creatures. It's just one of those teachable moments that come up every so often.
Best of luck!

What are night terrors?
These mysterious disturbances happen during deep, non-dreaming sleep. A child in this state will cry, whimper, flail, and even bolt out of bed. Though his eyes may be wide open, he's not awake and isn't aware of your presence.
Night terrors occur in 3 to 6 percent of young children. They can start as early as 18 months, but typically occur in children beginning at age 4 or 5.
How are night terrors different from nightmares?
Nightmares happen during rapid eye movement (REM) or dream sleep. A child who's had a nightmare is likely to have a fairly clear idea of what scared her, though she probably won't be able to articulate her fright until she's about 2. She may also be afraid to fall back asleep, and in the morning, she'll probably remember that she had a bad dream.
On the other hand, night terrors occur during non-REM sleep. They're not scary dreams, but more like a sudden fear reaction that happens as your child goes from one sleep phase to another. They can last several minutes or longer.
Your child won't remember a night terror the next day because it happened while she was in deep sleep and there are no mental images to recall.
What should I do when my toddler has a night terror?
Of course, your first instinct will be to comfort him, but your efforts will most likely be futile. (Remember, he's not really awake or aware of your presence.) You just have to wait it out and make sure he doesn't hurt himself.
Don't try to shake or startle him awake or physically restrain him – that could lead to more frantic behavior. Keep the lights dim and speak to him in a soft and reassuring voice. In 10 to 30 minutes, your child should calm down, curl up, and fall into a deep sleep again.
Is there anything I can do to prevent night terrors?
There are several steps you can take to reduce the chances that your toddler will have night terrors. First, make sure she's getting enough sleep. Children who go to bed overtired are more likely to experience these sleep disturbances. To avoid fatigue, extend your toddler's nap time, let her sleep a little later in the morning, or put her to bed earlier at night.
Stress can be a factor, so be sure to allow plenty of time for calming bedtime rituals, such as a bath, a song, a book, and lots of cuddling.
Because night terrors usually occur during the first part of the night, you could also try gently rousing your toddler after she's been asleep for an hour or two – about 15 minutes before a typical episode would start. This may alter her sleep pattern enough to avert the night terror.

Coming off a stretch of some of their ugliest baseball in more than a decade, the Yankees — not to mention the fanbase — were hoping that the team could restore some semblance of normalcy against the Baltimore Orioles and starter Kevin Millwood, who they'd disposed of rather handily earlier this season.
Of course, Millwood was apparently having none of that, making Buck Showalter look like a genius — not to mention me eerily prophetic once again in my Series Preview ("I guess Buck is counting on the Yankees having one of their patented 'we-should-really-be-beating-the-heck-out-of-[Insert Mediocre Starter]-but-instead-will-completely-forget-how-to-play-baseball' games.") — in tossing seven innings of one-run ball against New York. The one run came on a second-inning bomb off the bat of one Alex Rodriguez, who has rather quietly been on fire since returning from the DL earlier this month, hitting a beautiful .341/.391/.683 in September.
Now I've been able to look past a lot of the Yankees' poor play of late primarily due to the level of pitching they've had to deal with. But facing Kevin Millwood and only being able to plate one run over seven is just pathetic. Especially considering that the New York Stranded Baserunners once again left more than 10 men on base in this game.
Heading into the top of the 9th it was 3-1 Orioles, and things felt fairly hopeless, considering the Yankees' all-around poor offensive showing on the evening. All things considered, you couldn't really have asked for a better start from A.J. Burnett, who held Baltimore to those three runs over seven innings of his own, although you could probably ask that he not surrender a solo home run to Robert Andino of all people. But hey, a two-run deficit should in theory be plenty surmountable for a team like the Yankees.
Unfortunately given the way things have gone for the team of late, between stranding more baserunners than Texas has relief pitchers and also the season-long issue of mounting fizzled late-inning rallies, it seemed as though the Yankees would once again be going home losers as closer Koji Uehara came in. Of course, this was the same Uehara who gave up Nick Swisher's walk-off home run last week, so there was certainly a glimmer of hope.
Jorge Posada led off the inning with a spectacular at-bat and was ultimately able to dunk an opposite field single into left to get on base. Derek Jeter struck out, part of a 1-5 night for him with five LOB, and Curtis Granderson came through with a big base hit of his own. With one out, the Yankees now had two chance to hit a go-ahead three-run home run with their two biggest home run threats heading to the plate in Mark Teixeira and A-Rod. Tex, who has been mired in a pretty miserable slump since breaking his toe, wound up weakly popping out. Tex seems like he's in pretty dire need of some rest, so it might be time for Juan Miranda to get a game or two at first base. And then something incredible happened.
Alex Rodriguez stepped to the plate with two outs in the top of the ninth inning with two runners on base and his team down by two. With a 1-2 count on A-Rod, Uehara threw a fastball inside that looked like it just missed being strike three. I've seen guys rung up on that pitch plenty of times, and Baltimore's dugout sure thought that was the game right there based on Alex's amused reaction as he looked over at the Orioles after the call, seemingly aware that he may have been gifted another pitch. For what it's worth, according to both Brooks Baseball and Texas Leaguers it was indeed a ball.
On a 2-2 count, Uehara grooved his next pitch right down the middle and Alex did with it what he's done so many times before, and reminded us of why he's worth every penny they pay him: he absolutely clobbered the ball into the left field seats, putting the Yankees ahead 4-3 and once again rescuing the team while down to their final out. It doesn't get much more dramatic than that, folks.
I was watching the game with a group at a bar, and I absolutely lost my mind once A-Rod connected. I don't think I've been so jacked up for a home run since 'Rod hit that go-ahead grand slam against Minnesota back in May. Of course, that blast came in the seventh inning while this was in the ninth, reminiscent of A-Rod's numerous postseason heroics from last October.
Mariano Rivera came on to close the game out without incident, preserving the Yankees' 4-3 victory. And to top it all off, both the Rays and Red Sox lost, enabling the Yankees to hop back into first place and shave two games
off their magic number. Now hopefully this talk of Boston making some noise will begin properly fading away.
I'd like to say that with that one swing of the bat Alex wiped away two weeks' worth of frustration. While it was certainly an incredibly euphoric moment, and he was able to put smiles on a lot of dejected Yankees fans' faces last night, the team still needs to start playing much, much better — in particular, plating the zillions of runners they've been stranding on base would be most helpful. But the home run undoubtedly came as a huge relief, and was a great place to start.
