Parallel CommentariesMatthew Henry's Concise Commentary
1:17-25 Holy confidence in God as a Father, and awful fear of him as a Judge, agree together; and to regard God always as a Judge, makes him dear to us as a Father. If believers do evil, God will visit them with corrections. Then, let Christians not doubt God's faithfulness to his promises, nor give way to enslaving dread of his wrath, but let them reverence his holiness. The fearless professor is defenceless, and Satan takes him captive at his will; the desponding professor has no heart to avail himself of his advantages, and is easily brought to surrender. The price paid for man's redemption was the precious blood of Christ. Not only openly wicked, but unprofitable conversation is highly dangerous, though it may plead custom. It is folly to resolve, I will live and die in such a way, because my forefathers did so. God had purposes of special favour toward his people, long before he made manifest such grace unto them. But the clearness of light, the supports of faith, the power of ordinances, are all much greater since Christ came upon earth, than they were before. The comfort is, that being by faith made one with Christ, his present glory is an assurance that where he is we shall be also, Joh 14:3. The soul must be purified, before it can give up its own desires and indulgences. And the word of God planted in the heart by the Holy Ghost, is a means of spiritual life, stirring up to our duty, working a total change in the dispositions and affections of the soul, till it brings to eternal life. In contrast with the excellence of the renewed spiritual man, as born again, observe the vanity of the natural man. In his life, and in his fall, he is like grass, the flower of grass, which soon withers and dies away. We should hear, and thus receive and love, the holy, living word, and rather hazard all than lose it; and we must banish all other things from the place due to it. We should lodge it in our hearts as our only treasures here, and the certain pledge of the treasure of glory laid up for believers in heaven.
Pulpit Commentary
Verse 17. - And if ye call on the Father. "If" does not imply doubt; it introduces an hypothesis which, being taken for granted, involves a duty. Apparently there is here a reference to the Lord's Prayer, as in 2 Timothy 4:18. You call on God as your Father; then pass your time in fear (comp. Malachi 1:6, "If I be a Father, where is mine honor?"). He called you first; now ye call on him. The translation of the Revised Version is more exact than the Authorized Version, "If ye call on him as Father." Who without respect of persons judgeth according to every man's work. The adverb ἀπροσωπολήπτως, rendered "without respect of persons," occurs nowhere else in the New Testament; but the thought is familiar. St. Peter himself had said, when he was sent to receive Cornelius into the Church, "Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons" (Acts 10:34). The disciples of the Pharisees had said the same of our Lord (Matthew 22:16; comp. also Romans 2:11; Galatians 2:6; James 2:1-4). The Lord said (John 5:22), "The Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment to the Son." But the Father is "Fens judicii," as Didymus says (quoted by Alford), "judicante Filio, Pater est qu;. judicat," for the Son judges as his Delegate; as it was through the Son that the Father made the worlds. He judges according to every man's work, regarding, not distinctions of rank, or wealth, or nationality, but only the character of the work. Observe that the word "work" (ἔργον) is in the singular number, as πρᾶξιν in Matthew 16:27. God judges according to every man's work as a whole, according to the whole scope and meaning of his life as issuing from the one governing principle, whether faith or selfishness. So Bengel, "Unius hominis unum est opus, bouum malumve." Pass the time of your sojourning here in fear. The verb here, ἀναστράφητε, corresponds with the noun ἀναστροφή ("conversation") of ver. 15; both might be rendered (as Dean Plumptre suggests) by "conduct" (noun or verb) - "in all your conduct" in ver. 15; and here, "conduct yourselves." The word "sojourning" reminds us of ver. 1 of this chapter and of 1 Peter 2:11, in which last place we have the corresponding Greek word. We are sojourners here, life is short; but the character of that short life determines our eternal condition; therefore live in fear. St. John says, "Perfect love casteth out fear;" but there is no contradiction, as some have said, between the two holy apostles; for the fear which cannot coexist with perfect love (it may in various measures coexist with imperfect love) is slavish fear, selfish fear of death and punishment. The fear which St. Peter and St. Paul (Philippians 2:12) commend is holy fear - the fear of a son for a loving father, the fear of displeasing God before whom we walk, God who gave his blessed Son to die for us, God who will judge us at the last. This fear is not cowardice. Our Lord said (Luke 12:4), "Be not afraid of them that kill the body.... Fear him," etc. They who fear God need fear nothing else but God.
Gill's Exposition of the Entire Bible
And if ye call on the Father,.... Of Christ, and of all the saints; or "seeing" ye do. This is a fresh argument, engaging to holiness of life and conversation. Invocation of God includes the whole worship of him, the performance of every outward duty, and the exercise of every inward grace, particularly it designs prayer; and whoever are concerned in one, or the other, God will be sanctified by all them that draw nigh unto him: or the phrase may here intend an asserting God to be their Father, under the influence of the spirit of adoption; and all such that do claim so near a relation to God ought to honour and obey him, and to be followers of him: whoever call God their Father, and themselves his children, ought to be careful that they do not blaspheme, or cause to be blasphemed, that worthy name by which they are called:
who without respect of persons judgeth according to every man's work. This is another reason why men should be holy, taken from the general judgment; for this God that is a Father, is also a judge. There is a judgment after death, which is sure and certain, and reaches to all persons and things; and though the Father judges no man, but has committed all judgment to the Son, yet he will judge everyone by that man Christ, whom he has ordained to be the Judge of quick and dead: before his judgment seat all must stand, where they will be impartially, and without respect of persons, tried; no account will be had of what nation and place they are, whether Jews or Gentiles, or of this, or the other country, unless to aggravate or lessen their condemnation; for it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon, for Sodom and Gomorrah, than for such who have been favoured with a Gospel revelation, and believe it not; nor from what parents they have descended, for the soul that sins, that shall die; nor of what age and sex they are, small and great shall stand before him; nor of what state and condition, rich or poor, high or low, bond or free; or of what religious sect and denomination, or whether they have conformed to some external things or not; no regard will be had to any outward appearance or profession. The Judge will not judge according to the sight of the eyes, and outward view of things; for he looks on the heart, and knows the secret springs of all actions; and according thereunto will he judge and pass the sentence; and therefore what manner of persons ought men to be, in all holy conversation and godliness? Hence it follows,
pass the time of your sojourning here in fear; the people of God in this world are "sojourners", as all their fathers were; they are not natives of the place in, which they are; though they are in the world, they are not of it; they were natives of it by their first birth, but by their second they are born again from above, and so, belong to another place; they are of another country, even an heavenly one; are citizens of another city, a city which, has foundations, whose builder and maker is God, their citizenship is in heaven; and there is their Father's house, which is not made with hands, and is eternal; and there lies their estate, their inheritance; and though they dwell here below, neither their settlement nor their satisfaction are here; they reckon themselves not at home while they are on earth, and are strangers in it, to the men of the world, and they to them; with whom they have not, or at least ought not to have, any fellowship. It is indeed but for a "time", that they are sojourners, not an eternity; which time is fixed, and is very short, and will be quickly gone; it is but a little while, and Christ wilt come and take them home to his Father's house, where they shall be for ever with him; for it is only here on earth that they are pilgrims and strangers: and while they are so they should spend their time "in fear"; not of men nor of devils, nor of death and judgment, hell and eternal damnation; for such a fear is not consistent with the love of God shed abroad in the heart, and is the effect of the law, and not encouraged by the Gospel; is in natural men, yea, in devils themselves; but in the fear of God, and which springs from the grace of God, and is increased by it; is consistent with the strongest acts of faith, and with the greatest expressions of spiritual joy; is opposite to pride and self-confidence, and includes the whole worship of God, external and internal, and a religious conversation, in humility and lowliness of mind.
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary
17. if ye call on—that is, "seeing that ye call on," for all the regenerate pray as children of God, "Our Father who art in heaven" (Mt 6:9; Lu 11:2).
the Father—rather, "Call upon as Father Him who without acceptance of persons (Ac 10:34; Ro 2:11; Jas 2:1, not accepting the Jew above the Gentile, 2Ch 19:7; Lu 20:21; properly said of a judge not biassed in judgment by respect of persons) judgeth," etc. The Father judgeth by His Son, His Representative, exercising His delegated authority (Joh 5:22). This marks the harmonious and complete unity of the Trinity.
work—Each man's work is one complete whole, whether good or bad. The particular works of each are manifestations of the general character of his lifework, whether it was of faith and love whereby alone we can please God and escape condemnation.
pass—Greek, "conduct yourselves during."
sojourning—The outward state of the Jews in their dispersion is an emblem of the sojourner-like state of all believers in this world, away from our true Fatherland.
fear—reverential, not slavish. He who is your Father, is also your Judge—a thought which may well inspire reverential fear. Theophylact observes, A double fear is mentioned in Scripture: (1) elementary, causing one to become serious; (2) perfective: the latter is here the motive by which Peter urges them as sons of God to be obedient. Fear is not here opposed to assurance, but to carnal security: fear producing vigilant caution lest we offend God and backslide. "Fear and hope flow from the same fountain: fear prevents us from falling away from hope" [Bengel]. Though love has no fear IN it, yet in our present state of imperfect love, it needs to have fear going ALONG WITH It as a subordinate principle. This fear drowns all other fears. The believer fears God, and so has none else to fear. Not to fear God is the greatest baseness and folly. The martyrs' more than mere human courage flowed from this.

A Call to Be Holy

Local author Rose Gordy will read from her work and sell and sign books at the Kitzmiller Library on Wednesday, September 18 from 5 - 6 p.m. This event is free and open to the public. Copies of the authors books will be available for purchase.
This latest collection contains poems such as The Catch-22 of Human Existence, And the Lake Flows On, and The Corridors of Myself. They all inherently address life's vexing questions of love and loss and learning. Throughout the dramatic changes in my life, notes Gordy, I have discovered that the elusive truths we all instinctively search for somehow manage to manifest in our lives when we need them most.
Gordy also is a national and state workshop facilitator, speech coach, veteran secondary English teacher, dream counselor, and published poet, essayist and short story writer. She earned a Masters Degree in English and French from the University of Notre Dame and has been writing and teaching for most of her life.

Technology update

Inkjet prints transparent CNT film
Transparent conductive film for use in displays is one of the headline applications for carbon nanotubes (CNTs). The interconnected material is seen as being more robust than today's ITO electrodes and could prove a popular choice for flexible devices, but the challenge is to bring down production costs.
Fabricating a transparent CNT film typically involves a coating step followed by some kind of pattern transfer, but scientists in Korea believe that they can combine these two steps into one by using inkjet printing.
In the past, researchers have shown that inkjet printing works well with multiwalled CNTs, but this material is less attractive to display makers due to its relatively low conductivity and low bandwidth in comparison with single-walled CNTs. Unfortunately, single-walled CNTs have a tendency to agglomerate and clog the inkjet nozzle, which has put the material's high-performance potential on hold.
To get around this, the Korean team centrifuges its ink before use to remove any large particles. In addition, substrate preparation is critical. To improve the drying time of the inkjet printed drops and to promote uniform evaporation, the researchers use hydrophilic plasma-treated substrates. Heating the glass substrate to 60 °C is also beneficial and further reduces the drying time of the ink solution (CNT concentration 20 µg/ml) from 12 down to 1.6 seconds.
The researchers overprint to adjust the electrical properties of the film and to stabilize bandwidth performance. "The film's high-frequency response will be important for interconnecting electronic devices such as thin-film transistors, LEDs and MEMs," Chang-Soo Han of the Korea Institute of Machinery and Materials told nanotechweb.org.
Han and his colleagues have printed various patterns and electronic circuits on glass, glassy paper and polymer substrates. "Recently, we have achieved a line width of 46 µm and a dot pattern with a diameter of 4.12 µm after surface treatment," he added.
According to Han, the technique is also attracting interest from makers of gas sensors and the group plans to follow this up alongside its display interests.
The researchers presented their work in Nanotechnology.

Gabbard: Improving job market, economy top priorities
Hawaii's main issue isn't different from the main problem facing the rest of the country, Democratic U.S. House candidate Tulsi Gabbard says.
"The No. 1 thing I keep hearing is the need for good jobs and an improved economy," Gabbard said.
People want good, quality jobs, not just any job, she added.
"We have a good opportunity here to maximize the potential within the renewable energy sector," she said. "Hawaii is uniquely positioned to be on the cutting edge and provide an example" to the rest of the country.
"Maui has wind. Kauai has good sunlight for solar. And on Hawaii Island, people continue to discuss geothermal energy," she said.
"People are engaged" in the conversation about geothermal, Gabbard said. "That's always a good thing. That can provide some great opportunities to get people engaged in the future of their community."
Government at the federal, state and county level will need to partner to help those projects move forward, she added.
The technology industry could also come to and expand in Hawaii, again growing via public-private partnerships, Gabbard said.
Gabbard said she is a proponent of getting Hawaii's doctors an increase in Medicare and Medicaid reimbursements, similar to the one the late Sen. Ted Stevens got for Alaska's doctors.
Hawaii, like Alaska, is primarily rural and has a high cost of living and a high cost to do business, she said, so such an increase would be appropriate.
"That's really a no-brainer," she said.
Protecting Social Security and Medicare is vitally important, Gabbard said. For her, it is a cultural issue.
"It's about protecting our kupuna," she said. "They worked hard so we could have opportunities."
Improving the economy, and eliminating special interest tax breaks, will provide enough revenue to boost funding to those programs, Gabbard said.
A veteran who strongly supports ending the U.S. military presence in Afghanistan, Gabbard said she sees room for Defense Department savings as well, just by bringing troops home.
That would save $2.5 billion weekly, she said. Federal officials also need to get a "tighter hold" on defense contracting, she said.
Defense savings would free up the country to invest in "creating jobs at home," she said.
Small businessess didn't get bailouts, and those small businesses are providing and creating local jobs, she said.
She would like to see a focus on helping them, possibly through tax incentives for businesses hiring people who have been unemployed for a minimum length of time.
She would like to end federal subsidies for corporations and banks, and continue to look to eliminate waste and fraud in government spending. She pointed to a recent revelation by the federal General Services Administration that employees had defrauded the government of hundreds of thousands of dollars.
"It's mind-boggling the special treatment these people have," Gabbard said.
She also plans to look for redundancy in government programs and spending.
Gabbard has previously served in the state Legislature and the Honolulu City Council. She noted her role in getting infrastructure, including school and street improvements, for her district, one of the fastest-growing in the state, she said.
If elected, Gabbard said she will vote across party lines.
"It's important, no matter the issue, to really look at the problem and not be blinded by the partisan gridlock in Congress today," she said.

Crash.Net WRC News
Italian Job goes wrong
26 October 2012
In Petter Solberg's latest exclusive column on
, the Ford World Rally Team man looks back on a disappointing outing in Sardinia and sets his sights on making amends in Spain...
Hi guys,
Well, what a week that was!
I had high hopes for Rally Italia Sardegna, but as you all know, the event didn't go the way we had wanted. To retire from second position on Friday afternoon was crushingly disappointing. Chris [Patterson – my co-driver] and I felt very comfortable and then suddenly, bang! We were out... The fact we weren't even pushing that much at the time just made it even harder to accept.
The incident with the rock happened less than two kilometres from the end of the penultimate stage of the day – the 14.88km Tergu-Osilo test [SS7] – and it damaged the car's front-left suspension, breaking the cross-member. I'm not sure where the rock had come from as it wasn't in our pacenotes. I can only think it must have been pulled onto the line by another car. The worst thing was that if we had been pushing flat-out rather than at just 90 per cent, we would probably have missed it as the back of the car would have started to turn first. Life is full of cruel little ironies like that at times.
As I said, it was completely unexpected, and returning to the service park afterwards to see Malcolm [Wilson – Ford World Rally Team director] and all the boys was one of the most difficult moments of the season for me. With Jari-Matti [Latvala – my team-mate] going off, too, it was a really tough day for the team, and Malcolm certainly didn't deserve that. I always try to do my best, but on this occasion I got it wrong and we failed.
It was such a shame as things were looking very good. We'd set some very competitive times on the Thursday and the opening loop on Friday – we were second or third-quickest in all but one test – and we were confident of finishing at least second. It's a long, tough rally in Sardinia which is never over until it's over, so we were content to play a waiting game and see what happened. Too many times this year I've gone off when I've been chasing the win, so this time we decided to adopt a different strategy. That's what makes the outcome so bitterly disappointing.
Of course, a lot of drivers had problems on the Friday, and in addition to Jari-Matti and I, Sébastien Loeb and Thierry Neuville also went out, but that is Sardinia for you. The stages are very rough and very tricky, and just the smallest of errors can incur a heavy penalty. But like I say, we were barely even pushing in SS7 and everything felt under control.
After retiring on Friday, we re-joined on Saturday under the Rally 2 rules and in the end took ninth place. We also won the Power Stage for the third time this season, which was something positive. The extra points are always useful too, but to be honest, after the incident on Friday, already I was thinking about Spain and making amends there...
Could I have challenged Mikko Hirvonen for the win but for that clash with the rock in SS7? That's difficult to say, but I think mine and Mikko's pace was quite similar, so it could have been a close battle, that's for sure. The Fiesta RS WRC felt fantastic as always, but we will never really know, will we?
As for Rally Italia Sardegna itself, it was another good event. There was a great atmosphere, with thousands of spectators lining the stages, and the service park was busy, too – we had an autograph session on the Saturday night, and Jari-Matti and I were practically besieged by fans! It's nice to see the switch in date didn't affect numbers – although to be honest, because the temperatures were still so high, it almost felt like summer anyway! The stages were maybe a little bit harder than usual and we had some rain on Friday morning, but even that didn't last very long.
It was good to have a couple of 'proper' stages on Thursday afternoon, but to have just 16km on the final day was a bit of a shame. Okay, it might have been interesting if there had been a really exciting fight for victory or for the podium still going on, but as it was, there were very few battles left by that point which meant it was a bit of a meaningless day for all concerned.
Of course, in the countdown to the event came the shock news that Ford will withdraw from the World Rally Championship at the end of this season, bringing an end to its works programme. This is very sad. Ford has been probably the WRC's greatest supporter and is one of the most successful manufacturers in the championship's history, but I can understand the reasons behind the decision.
M-Sport will, however, fight on, so it isn't all doom and gloom. Indeed, I can see absolutely no reason either why they won't still be able to really take the fight to Citroen and Volkswagen in 2013. The bottom line is that the Fiesta RS WRC is a bloody quick car, and I am confident it can be even quicker next year and there will still be technical support from Ford in 2013, don't forget. M-Sport can definitely fight for the championship next year – there is no doubt about that in my mind.
Returning to 2012, though, we still have one event left and that is of course in Spain. Rally de España is another excellent event and like Sardinia has a fantastic atmosphere. It is a mixed-surface event these days – some people still forget that and assume all the stages are on asphalt, but the opening day isn't. The first leg is probably the most demanding as it features two different stages on gravel and Terra Alta – the mixed-surface stage, which is over 40 kilometres long (all three are run twice). Driving on asphalt and gravel obviously requires two completely different approaches and it will be interesting to see who can adapt the best to that unique challenge.
We will have a test next week as we gear up for the WRC season finale, and the principal objective will be to establish a solid set-up for the mixed-surface first day of the rally. It will be important to get that right as we have to go for the victory. For Ford, for M-Sport, for Malcolm and for all the engineers, mechanics and everybody else in the team, we want to be standing on the top step of the podium on Sunday afternoon. Of course, I personally want to be the driver to do that, and I really want to win to make up for Italy, but whether it is me or Jari-Matti, the most important thing is that a Ford finishes first. We will put everything into that goal.
Until next time,
Petter Solberg

IRS warns taxpayers about bogus tax refund scam
By: Sara Seyydin Journal Staff Writer
Seniors, working families and church members targeted by con artists
With tax season well underway, the Internal Revenue Service is warning senior citizens and other taxpayers to beware of tax refund scams. IRS officials say the schemes carry a common theme of promising refunds to people who have little or no income and are not normally required to file a federal income tax return. Local organizations that help seniors say there are general guidelines they can follow to safeguard themselves from these scams. Some of the more common scams include promises that someone can get a victim a credit based on the American Opportunity Tax, even if they never went to college or went several years ago, or file claims for the expired Economic Recovery Credit Program, according to a press release issued by the IRS earlier this month. "Most of these scams involve promoters who prey upon people in need, building false hopes. When victims' claims are rejected, their money and the promoters are long gone," said Richard Panick, IRS spokesperson, in the press release. "We want to warn the public to be on guard and stop this new scheme before more innocent people are victimized." Candace Roeder, executive director of Seniors First, said the organization often gets calls from seniors who have been solicited by scammers of all types. "Frequently seniors will call us and just ask us, 'does this sound right?'" Roeder said. "Too often they don't make that call first." One senior told her recently that someone called asking for their social security number to switch their insurance plan to a better one. Roeder said whenever an incident like that occurs the first thing they tell people to do is to call local law enforcement. She said there have even been scam artists that have targeted victims of past scams, claiming if they pay they will help them get their money back. "That is just so heartless, it is so wrong," Roeder said. Eric Hill, an instructor and tax preparer for AARP does taxes for seniors and others in Auburn at the Multipurpose Senior Center for no charge through the organization's program. He said there are steps consumers can take to protect themselves from tax scams. "First thing is don't ever talk to anybody who calls you — anybody who solicits you. The probability is that they are dishonest," Hill said. He said he hasn't come across any seniors who were targets of tax schemes, but has come across other types of schemes. The most common one he has seen is financial advisers buying and selling stocks without their senior client's best interest in mind to make commission. "It's illegal, but it's still done," Hill said. "I think you need to deal with known, reputable individuals." Roeder said the bottom line is someone should never have to pay to get their own money. "I would venture to say that is always a scam," Roeder said. "And for goodness sake, if you didn't play the foreign lottery, you can't win the foreign lottery." Reach Sara Seyydin at firstname.lastname@example.com, or follow her on Twitter @AJ_News. _______________________________________________________ For more information on the AARP tax program or to make an appointment, call the Auburn Multipurpose Senior Center at (530)823-8172. _______________________________________________________ Protect Yourself Take steps to protect yourself from financial exploitation and abuse, including tax scams: • Plan ahead to protect your assets and to ensure your wishes are followed. Talk to someone at your financial institution, an attorney, or financial adviser about the best options for you. • Never give personal information to anyone who phones you. • Never pay a fee or taxes to collect sweepstakes or lottery "winnings." • Never rush into a financial decision. Ask for details in writing and get a second opinion. •Consult with a financial adviser or attorney before signing any document you don't understand. •Get to know your banker and build a relationship with the people who handle your finances. They can look out for any suspicious activity related to your account. •Check references and credentials before hiring anyone. Don't allow workers to have access to information about your finances. •Pay with checks and credit cards instead of cash to keep a paper trail. •Feel free to say "no." After all, it's your money. • You have the right not to be threatened or intimidated. If you think someone close to you is trying to take control of your finances, call your local Adult Protective Services. Source: Elder Financial Protection Network Trust your instincts Exploiters and abusers often are very skilled. They can be charming and forceful in their effort to convince you to give up control of your finances. Don't be fooled. Trust your instincts. If something doesn't feel right, it may not be right. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Source: Elder Financial Protection Network

With my heart heavy and full, I needed and wanted to respond to Romeo's passing in a meaningful way. So I sat down to write a tribute. I had to tell Romeo's story—at least, the part I knew.
Writing the story was a healing act for me. It was a place to express my grief, my concern, and most of all, my deep gratitude for Romeo because he had touched my life. Maybe it was as simple as that—a way to say thank you to this dignified creature for what he had given me. And to tell anyone else who cared to know, how much this sweet dog's life had mattered.
Throughout my life I have grieved over the animals I have lost. And I've watched others experience heartache and sorrow after their beloved animal companion dies. We all know about the ceremonies and grief rituals that are there to support us when a fellow human dies; but the same is not so commonplace when a beloved animal passes. Why not?
It is with that in mind that Tribute Tails was born, providing a way for pet owners to memorialize and remember your deceased animal companion and beloved pet with a personalized, unique written tribute: for dogs, cats, parrots, birds, hamsters, guinea pigs, fish and all animals domestic exotic and wild.
As a funeral celebrant and a certified animal loss and bereavement counselor, I have studied and trained in this area in order to offer animal lovers a truly sacred space to acknowledge the value of their relationship to a special animal, to remember and honor that friend, and grieve their passing. (See my Biography on the the "Purchase a Tail" page)
"Wildness is the state of complete awareness. That's why we need it."
—Gary Snyder
From a young age, I never questioned what I knew to be true—the animals that live with us aren't just our pets—they are our family members. They live beside us without judgment, they accept us, teach us, and keep us connected to the natural world. They nourish our souls, feeding our primal selves—the part of us that just 'is'— and in doing that they give us the greatest gift of all—freedom to be ourselves.
I hope Tribute Tails can be a touchstone for you, an invitation to reach out during this difficult time. With every new Tribute Tails client, I re-commit myself to listen sincerely; to learn your animal's unique tale; and to write your story in a personal, lasting tribute that will celebrate the pure, uncomplicated love you shared with your
best friend.
Tribute Tail is dedicated to remembering your
best friend with dignity.
Please contact Dorry Bless to learn more about
how to arrange your special tribute tail.

OK, so I have been looking at a few of the army books, as I am interested in starting to play Warmachine, mainly becuase of the look of the models.__________________
Fortunatly somebody at the club has pretty much all the army books so I got to take a good look through and the army I liked the most were the Mercinaries. I like the idea of have some pirates mixed with some Dwarfs to form a ramshackles group for hire.
Mercenaries a good starting army? I dont really want to get another force to get me going if I dont need too. I intend to pick up the rules at some point in the near future so I can get some idea of how to play the game.
Are Mercenaries a fun starting army?

"Emerging evidence suggests that we are far more successful at providing combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) to women than to men," according to a Lancet comment. The authors write that "men's health-seeking behaviour are poorly understood in the AIDS epidemic, and encouraging men to get tested and into treatment is a major challenge, but one that is poorly recognised." They conclude that "far from being seen as a challenging group requiring specific interventions, reflections on men and HIV/AIDS are usually limited to their culpability as drivers of the epidemic" (Mills et al., 7/25).

12/19: Lite moves to 96.7
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Chuck Deskins, the Clear Channel market manager, just told me that Lite isn't completely out. Clear Channel is moving Lite to its very weak south-skewing signal 96.7. (I can't hear 96.7 from my downtown location but it becomes much clearer south of I-20.). Currently, it's simulcasting Viva 105.7.
He said Lite 96.7 will launch in the next day or two but without Steve Goss or Randy & Spiff. And it will air Christmas songs through Christmas so if you are on the south side, you have that option. Anybody north of I-20, you're outta luck on that front.
Although he said Lite 94.9 was doing fine from a revenue standpoint, "we think there is more out there meaning potential audience and more revenue for us in the country arena." TV ads will start as early as Tuesday and billboards will begin appearing possibly before the year's out.
For air talent, Deskins said "we're in full recruitment mode." He said he's considering both local-only talent and syndicated talent for all four major dayparts.
And why dump Christmas a week early?
"It was a tough decision. We've been doing Christmas music for a long time. We felt there was enough Christmas music in the marketplace. Our listeners could find Christmas music if they chose do to dhat. We wanted a little earlier start to tell the Atlanta market, we're in the country business."
Management considered "creeping into the format" by sticking with Christmas for a week and promoting the new Bull. But they decided to jump right in instead.
The Bull's target audience is going to be women 35-54, older than Kicks, slightly younger than Eagle. He said it will end up about 60% female. The slogan: "The biggest hits, the biggest stars."
But by including the Braves in the package, isn't that a mismatch?
Deskins rationalized it this way: "It's a family sport. When you look at country music, it does skew female. It's about 60/40. But we feel that baseball and country music in Atlanta, Georgia is perfect. We're not going to forget the men on the radio station. "
And not being the programming guy (Clay Hunnicutt, vp of country programming for Clear Channel, is helping out on that front), Deskins wasn't sure if they'd play the Dixie Chicks or not. (Deskins, who joined Clear Channel Atlanta just a few months ago, has more of a sales background from Tampa.)
So far, after looking over seven hours and more than 100 commercial-free songs, there's no sign of the Chicks on the playlist. But the Bull is now playing one or two xmas songs an hour. Although the first hour looked a lot like Kicks, subsequent hours (with songs by Ronnie Milsap and Mel McDaniel) revealed it's slightly older than Kicks but still younger than Eagle.
If you want to see the hour-to-hour songs from the Bull, the best place to go is www.yes.com Type in WLTM-FM for now though they are now under new call letters of WUBL-FM.
12/18: Yogi leaving Viva 105.7
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Yogi (Juan Tapia), one half of the Viva 105.7 morning team, is leaving the station at the end of the week. His attorney Jamie Hernan said he just "needed a change in environment."
Yogi & Panda filed a civil lawsuit against the Regular Guys and their employer Clear Channel for invasion of privacy in October after Larry Wachs of 96rock's the Regular Guys taped their conversation in a public restroom and aired it. But they dropped the lawsuit to go after Wachs in criminal court, a case that is still pending. The Regular Guys were subsequently fired.
They'd been together four or five years, including time in Los Angeles. But they have now decided t o go their separate ways, Hernan said. "Yogi isn't comfortable being there but Panda is sticking it out," Hernan said. Yogi is going to a Dallas Hispanic station, he added. I'm going to try to talk to Yogi later today.
12/18: Skip & Pete staying on Braves radio through 2009
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Skip Caray and Pete Van Wieren are committed to announcing Braves telecasts on the radio at least through 2009, the Braves announced today. The Braves also say they support the move from 96rock (now Project 9-6-1) to 94.9/The Bull, the new country station on the FM side. (Braves will continue to air on WGST-AM on the AM side.)
Derek Schiller, Braves senior vice president of sales and marketing for three years, said Clear Channel consulted with the Braves about the potential changes and moving the Braves FM simulcast to 94.9 instead of 96.1 He said they did some research and looked at research provided by Clear Channel and decided it was worth the risk.
"We felt like it was a good fit," Schiller said. "We felt like the country format, whilie not traditional in this marketplace for the Atlanta Braves, is something we're looking forward to and hope it matches with the likes and interests of the majority of our fan base."
Despite all the turmoil at Clear Channel Atlanta, Schiller said he's confident that John Hogan, vp of programming for Clear Channel out of San Antonio, fully supports them. In fact, he negotiated the deal. Insiders at Cox Radio, which used to air the Braves, said Clear Channel paid so much, there's no way they could be making money and in fact are losing millions. Clear Channel has declined to comment about that and Schiller didn't express an opinion about the deal's profitability on CCU's side. 2007 will be the third year of a five-year deal.
AJC writer Tim Tucker also found out Skip will be virtually entirely on radio and Pete will hardly ever been heard on TV. Here's the story.
Here's the press release:
Atlanta Braves Hall of Fame Broadcasters Skip Caray and Pete Van Wieren
Sign Up With Braves Radio Through 2009
Duo will be heard locally on 94.9 The Bull
The Atlanta Braves and Clear Channel radio announced today that Braves veteran broadcasters Skip Caray and Pete Van Wieren will helm the radio airways through 2009. The two will be heard around Metro Atlanta on Clear Channel's 94.9 The Bull, the new home of the Atlanta Braves. Clear Channel announced earlier today that Braves games were moving from Project 9-6-1 to 94.9 The Bull. Regionally, the duo can be heard on the Braves Radio Network on over 150 stations across the Southeast.
"We are thrilled that Skip and Pete will continue announcing Braves games for a long time," said Derek Schiller, Braves Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing. "They have been the voices of the Braves for over 31 years and continue to be our fans favorites."
Caray and Van Wieren, who together were inducted into the Atlanta Braves Hall of Fame in 2004, will enter into their 32nd season of Braves announcing in 2007.
"Given the opportunity to sign these two legends is a no-brainer," said Chuck Deskins, President and General Manager of Clear Channel Radio Atlanta. "They are an institution not just in Atlanta, but in baseball."

12/18: Xmas Lites out, country Bull charges in
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
So the rumors were true: 94.9 is now country. In effect, the Grinch took away Christmas music a week early. (Your other options: 104.7/The Fish and B98.5)
After playing Brenda Lee's "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree" at 11:54 a.m., 94.9 did a strange feint by playing the Moody Blues' "Your WIldest Dreams." Then they segued into a promo in which they said they had a Christmas present they had to open up early: 94.9/The Bull, a full-on country station. They then sampled several artists, from Carrie Underwood to Lonestar to Sugarland.
"Finally you have a choice! 94.9- the Bull!" the promo says. The first Bull song out of the gate: Alan Jackson's "Chattahoochee," followed by another hometown group Sugarland and the act's hit "Something More." Then another hometown boy, Travis Tritt with "It's a Great Day to Be Alive." Then the first non-Georgia act, Keith Urban, slides in with "Who Wouldn't Want to Be Me," a song that does reference Georgia.
The next six: "The Way You Love Me" by Faith Hill, "Somethiing Like This" by her hubby Tim McGraw, then "As Good As I Once Was" by Toby Keith, "Be My Baby" by John Michael Montgomery, Kenny Chesney's "Summertime," Brooks & Dunn's "Red Dirt Road." It'll be interesting if they choose to play the Dixie Chicks, who have been banned from Kicks and Eagle. So far, it sounds like a straightforward, top 40 country station with no particular lean toward men or women.
The Bull Web site is now alive — again.
This means we now have three metro-wide country stations, along with Eagle 106.7 and Kicks 101.5, both owned by ABC. The Bull music mix the first hour is very much along the lines of Kicks' playlist.
"Kicks has been the country leader in Atlanta for a long time," noted Cox Radio market manager Chris Wegmann. "It'd be interesting to watch to see if they can make inroads against Kicks… Country radio fans are very loyal." He said that Cox's B98.5 will naturally benefit from Lite's departure, becoming the default "in office listening" station.
Victor Sansone, general manager at Kicks and Eagle, said he wishes his competitor "moderate success." "They play a good game over there," he said. "We'll be tough. So will they." Given the way ratings work, we won't know how much headway they'll make with country at least til later in the spring. His company ABC is in the midst of being sold to Citadel so perhaps Clear Channel smells weakness.
Christmas has been a boon for Lite over the past six years but ratings when Lite has not been playing Christmas were relatively poor this year, hurt partly by the arrival of 97.1/The River.
Why would they dump Christmas a week early and peeve tens of thousands of Christmas fans who now see 94.9 as a three-decker saurkraut and toadstool sandwich with arsenic sauce? With so many people listening to 94.9 who normally wouldn't be listening (especially men), this is a way to draw Kicks and Eagle fans who wouldn't have otherwise known about it. And the Arbitron ratings book ended on Dec. 13 so the station has already gotten the ratings it needs for the fall book out of Christmas.
Randy and Spiff, whose final shift was today before their vacation, knew it was over this morning based on what they said, though they never explicitly said goodbye.
In thanking everyone for raising $250K-plus for the Make-a-Wish Foundation over the weekend, Spiff said at 8:40 a.m., "We owe our listeners everything."
Randy said: "More money came out of Atlanta from individuals than ever before."
"We thank each and every one of you for the Make a Wish kids — and for us."
"We'll probably be off for awhile," Randy said.
"So check us out on randyandspiff.com," Spiff said, helpfully plugging a site that is unrelated to the station.
I reached Carner at his home while he was sifting through emails from concerned fans: 300 already. "I answer three and five more come in," he said. His message to the fans:
*"We've been here since 1989. We've really bonded with our listeners. Randy's been through three adoptions. They've accepted them. I've lost a wife and remarried and got a new family. They're always there for us. We've had more fun than they had. We really had. We want to thank them for every minute of every day we've had with then. Hopfeully, we'll have some more."
Randy and Spiff started their Atlanta career in 1989 at Fox 97.1, the oldies station, moved to Cool 105.7 in 2003, then to Lite last year. Goss has been at Peach/Lite for more than 25 years.
Lite started as Peach, an easy-listening station in 1972 before seguing in the 1980s to soft rock. The Peach name was dropped in 2002 for the more generic Lite, a name used nationwide among Clear Channel soft rock stations.
