text:
Within the past few decades, a new form of worship has become widely popular among Christians. Where before people would sing hymns accompanied by an organ, then listen to a sermon, in this new worship there are praise bands that use rock band instruments, short, catchy praise songs, sophisticated Powerpoint presentations, and the pastor giving uplifting practical teachings about having a fulfilling life as a Christian. This new kind of worship is so popular that people come to these services by the thousands. They go because the services are fun, exciting, easy to understand, and easy to relate to. Yet this new style of worship is light years away from the more traditional and liturgical Orthodox style of worship. How does an Orthodox Christian respond to this new worship? Is it acceptable or is it contrary to Orthodoxy? How should an Orthodox Christian respond to an invitation to attend these contemporary Christian services?
According to the Pattern
First we need to ask: Is there a guiding principle for right worship? St. Stephen, the first martyr, gave a sermon about the history of the Jewish nation. In this sermon he notes that Old Testament worship was "according to the pattern."
Our forefathers had the tabernacle of the Testimony with them in the desert. It had been made as God directed Moses, according to the pattern he had seen. (Acts 7:44 NIV, italics added).
This phrase comes up again in the book of Hebrews.
They serve at a sanctuary that is a copy and shadow of what is in heaven. This is why Moses was warned when he was about to build the tabernacle: "See to it that you make everything according to the pattern shown you on the mountain." (Hebrews 8:5 NIV, italics added)
The phrase is a reference to Exodus 24:15-18 when Moses went up on Mt. Sinai and spent forty days and forty nights up there. On Mt. Sinai Moses was in the direct presence of God receiving instructions about how to order the life of the new Jewish nation. Thus, the guiding principle for Old Testament worship was not creative improvisation nor adapting to contemporary culture but imitation of the heavenly prototype.
The next question is: What is the biblical pattern for worship? In Exodus 25 to 31, Moses received instruction concerning the construction of the Ark of the Covenant, the Tabernacle, the lamp stand, the altar for burnt offerings, the altar for incense, the anointing oil, the vestments for the priests, and the consecration of the priests. The principle of "according to the pattern" was repeated several times in the design specifications for the Tabernacle (Exodus 25:8, 25:40, 26:30, 27:8). This was the template for the spiritual identity of the Jewish people. To be a faithful Jew meant that one offered to Yahweh the proper sacrifices in the prescribed manner.
Despite the clearly laid out instructions in Exodus and Leviticus, the Israelites struggled to keep to the biblical pattern of worship. The struggle to maintain the right worship of Yahweh in the face of temptations to follow the idolatrous ways of the non-Jewish nations is a theme running through Old Testament history. The sin of the golden calf in Exodus 32 was not the sin of heresy (wrong doctrine), but the sin of false worship. When the northern tribes broke from Judah, Jeroboam did not create a new theology, instead he had two golden calves made and appointed non-Levites to be priests as a way of consolidating his rule (II Kings 12:25-33). II Chronicles is a history of the struggle to maintain fidelity to Yahweh by holding to the biblical worship. II Chronicles 21 to 24 relates how a bad king—Jehoram—led the Israelites astray through Ba'al worship and a good king—Josiah—brought them back through the restoration of the Passover sacrifice. Apostasy in Old Testament times meant abandoning Yahweh for other gods and the chief means was the sin of idolatry (wrong worship). The lesson here is that right worship was critical for a right relationship with God.
Thus, orthodoxy —right worship—in the Old Testament meant keeping to the pattern of worship that Yahweh revealed to Moses on Mt. Sinai. Right worship was also key to Israel's covenant identity. This suggests that right worship is key to our Christian identity. By studying how worship was defined in the Old Testament and comparing it with the Orthodox liturgy we can better understand why Orthodox worship is the way it is and how contemporary worship has strayed far from biblical worship.
Where Does Orthodox Worship Come From?
Worship in the Orthodox Church is patterned after the Old Testament Temple. Typically, an Orthodox church has three main areas: the narthex (entry hall), the nave (the central part), and the altar area. This is similar to the Old Testament Tabernacle which consisted of the Outer Court, the Holy Place, and the Most Holy Place (Exodus 26:30-37, 27:9-19; I Kings 6:14-36; II Chronicles 3 and 4). The layout of Orthodox churches may seem strange to those who attend contemporary services, but it is patterned after the Old Testament Temple. As a matter of fact, Orthodox church buildings are often referred to as temples.
When we enter into an Orthodox Church we are entering into sacred space much like the Old Testament Tabernacle. When I go to an Orthodox church on Sunday, I enter into the narthex, a small entry room. I light a candle in front of the sacred image of Jesus Christ and commit my life to Christ in preparation for worship. The short time I spend in the narthex helps me to shift my mind from the world outside to the heavenly worship inside.
Then I enter into the nave, the large central part of the church building where the congregation gathers for worship. All around me I see sacred images of Christ, the saints, and the angels. This is patterned after the Jewish Temple which had images of angels, trees, and flowers carved on the walls (I Kings 6:29; II Chronicles 3:5-7). Up in the front is a wall of sacred images (the iconostasis). In the middle of this wall is a door with a gate across it. This wall of images is patterned after the curtain that separated the Holy Place from the Most Holy Place in the Jewish Temple (Exodus 26:31-33; I Kings 6:31-35). Behind this is the altar area where the Eucharist is celebrated. Just as the Jewish high priests offered sacrifices in the Most Holy Place at the Jerusalem Temple, the Orthodox priests offer up the spiritual sacrifice of Christ's body and blood at the altar. The altar area also symbolizes Paradise, the Garden of Eden, where Adam and Eve enjoyed deep communion with God before the Fall. We receive Holy Communion in front of the altar reminding us that we have been restored to communion with God through Jesus' sacrificial death on the cross.
Orthodox worship is also patterned after the worship in heaven. At the start of the second half of the Divine Liturgy the church sings:
Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord of Hosts, heaven and earth are full of your glory. Hosanna in the highest. Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord. Hosanna in the highest.
This is a participation of the heavenly worship described in Isaiah 6:3 and Revelation 4:8. For the Orthodox Church this point of the Divine Liturgy is not so much an imitation as a participation in the heavenly worship.
Another way Orthodox worship is patterned after the heavenly worship is the use of incense. Incense was very much a part of the heavenly worship. In his vision of God, Isaiah describes how as the angels sang: "Holy, Holy, Holy" the doors shook and the temple in heaven was filled with incense (Isaiah 6:4). The Apostle John in Revelation describes how the angels in heaven held bowls full of incense and how the heavenly Temple was filled with incense smoke (Revelation 5:8, 8:3-4, 15:8).
The vestments worn by Orthodox priests are patterned after the Old Testament and the heavenly prototype. The entire chapter 28 in Exodus contains instruction on the making of priestly vestments. In heaven, Christ and the angels wear the priestly vestments (Revelation 1:13, 15:6). The vestments are more than pretty decorations, rather they are meant to manifest the dignity and the beauty of holiness that adorns God's house.
Old Testament Prophecies of Orthodox Worship
Orthodox worship is more than an imitation of Old Testament worship. It is also a fulfillment of the Old Testament prophecies. The Old Testament prophets besides describing the coming Messiah also described worship in the Messianic Age. Within the book of Malachi is a very interesting prophecy:
My name will be great among the nations, from the rising to the setting of the sun. In every place incense and pure offerings will be brought to my name, because my name will be great among the nations, says the Lord. (Malachi 1:11)
The phrase "from the rising to the setting of the sun" is a poetic way of saying from east to west—everywhere. Here we have a prophecy that the worship of God which was formerly confined to Jerusalem would in the future become universal. This was confirmed by Jesus in his conversation with the Samaritan woman at the well. In response to her question whether Jerusalem or Mt. Gerizim was the proper place for worship (John 4:19), Jesus answered that in the Messianic Age true worship would not depend on location but on worship of the Trinity. His statement about worshiping the Father in spirit (Holy Spirit) and truth (Jesus Christ) (John 4:23-24) is a teaching that true worship is worship of the Trinity: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
What is striking about Malachi's prophecy is the reference to incense. Where before incense was offered in the Jerusalem Temple, in the Messianic Age incense would be offered by the non-Jews. One of the most vivid memories many first time visitors have of Orthodox worship is the smell of incense. Incense is burned at every Orthodox service. In the Roman Catholic Church incense is used in the high Mass but not in most services. Most Evangelical and Pentecostal churches do not use incense at all. Thus, whenever an Orthodox priest swings the censer and the sweet fragrance fills the church one experiences a direct fulfillment of Malachi's prophecy. Protestants may complain about how strange incense is, but they should realize that the use of incense was an integral part of Old Testament worship and is one of the key markers of authentic biblical worship in the Messianic Age.
Malachi's prophecy about "pure offerings" is a reference to the Eucharist. The Jewish rabbis taught that when the Messiah comes all sacrifices would be abolished with the exception of one, the Todah or Thanksgiving sacrifice. This was fulfilled in the sacrament of the Eucharist, that is, the last supper Christ had with his followers when he gave thanks over the bread and the wine (Luke 22:17-20). The word eucharist comes from the Greek word ευχαριστειν, "to give thanks." Jesus' statement about the cup of the new covenant meant that he was about to inaugurate the Messianic Age. The Eucharist is a remembrance of Christ's death on the cross as well as a participation in Christ's body and blood (I Corinthians 10:16-17). Thus, the Eucharist—the pure offerings—is another key sign of right worship in the Messianic Age.
In the last chapter of Hebrews is a strange verse that many Evangelicals and Protestants skip over:
We have an altar from which those who minister at the tabernacle have no right to eat (Hebrews 13:10; emphasis added).
What the author is asserting here is that the priests and Levites working at the Jerusalem Temple have no access to the Christian Eucharist. The Eucharist is only for those who confess Jesus as the promised Messiah and his death on the cross as the ultimate Passover sacrifice. The reference to the altar tells us the early Christians celebrated the Eucharist on real altars and that they had priests.
Protestants today have the habit of calling the platform area altars and spiritual songs as sacrifice. This involves a significant spiritualizing of the meaning of Hebrews 13:10. Furthermore, if we take this spiritualizing approach the phrase "have no right to eat" would not make sense. In the early Church if one did not confess Jesus as Christ, one could not receive the Eucharist. Contemporary Protestant worship on the other hand welcomes everybody and makes no distinction between believers and nonbelievers in its worship. In short, the early Church's worship style was radically different from Protestant churches that have dispensed with the altar and the idea of the Eucharist as a spiritual sacrifice. To those who advocate contemporary worship, the Orthodox Christian can reply: We have an altar, where is yours?
An Evangelical or Charismatic visiting an Orthodox service might object to the Eucharist on the grounds that it is a re-presenting of Christ's once and for all sacrifice. First of all, this argument comes from the Protestant debate against Roman Catholicism. Orthodoxy is not the same as Roman Catholicism. Second, the idea of the Eucharist as a re-presenting of Christ's blood is contrary to the teachings of the Orthodox Church. In the Liturgy, the priest prays: "Once again we offer You this spiritual worship without the shedding of blood…." (Kezios p. 25; italics added).
For the Apostle Paul the Eucharist was just as important as the Gospel message. As he went about planting churches across the Roman Empire, Paul taught them the Good News of Jesus Christ and how to celebrate the Eucharist. This can be seen in Paul's formal phrasing: "For I received from the Lord what I also pass on to you…." in I Corinthians 11:23 for the Eucharist and in I Corinthians 15:3 for the Good News (Gospel). Paul's phrase: "What I received from the Lord…." parallels that in Exodus 25:9: "exactly like the pattern I will show you." The infrequent celebration of the Eucharist in Evangelical and Pentecostal worship shows how far they have moved from historic Christian worship.
Another prophetic sign of worship in the Messianic Age is the priesthood. The last chapter of Isaiah contains a prophecy about the time when knowledge of Yahweh would become universal among the Gentiles and God would make priests of non-Jews.
And I will select some of them also to be priests and Levites, says the Lord. (Isaiah 66:21 NIV;emphasis added)
Part of this great ingathering would be the consecration of Gentiles to the priesthood. This was fulfilled when Jesus gave the Great Commission to the apostles (Matthew 28:19-20). Paul understood his work of evangelism as a "priestly duty" (Romans 15:16). In Isaiah is another prophecy about the important role that the Gentiles would play in the rebuilding of Israel, that of the establishment of the New Israel, the Church.
They will rebuild the ancient ruins
and restore the places long devastated;
they will renew the ruined cities
that have been devastated for generations.
Aliens will shepherd your flocks;
foreigners will work your fields and vineyards.
And you will be called priests of the Lord,
you will be named ministers of our God. (Isaiah 61:4-6 NIV; emphasis added)
Isaiah's prophecy could be understood to refer to the Jews' return from Babylon in 538 BC, but the fact that non-Jews would be part of the rebuilding process is an indication that the prophecy points to the coming of Christ. At the first Church council, St. James, the Lord's stepbrother, quotes from the prophet Amos in defense of admitting non-Jews into the Church:
After this I will return
and rebuild David's fallen tent,
Its ruins I will rebuild,
and I will restore it,
that the remnant of men may seek the Lord,
and all the Gentiles who bear my name,
says the Lord, who does these things
that have been known for ages. (Acts 15:16-17 NIV; Amos 9:11-12)
The key to understanding Isaiah's prophecy about the priesthood is that a priest does not stand alone but in a certain context: temple, altar, and sacrifice. This pattern of priesthood, temple, and sacrifice can be found in I Peter 2:5:
…you also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood, offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ (NIV).
The Apostle Peter reiterates the teaching that the Church is a "royal priesthood" in I Peter 2:9. This can be seen in the fact that the early Christians celebrated the Eucharist regularly on the first day of the week, Sunday. The early Christians understood the Eucharist to be a spiritual sacrifice and had priests to lead them in worship. Today, two thousand years later, the Orthodox Church still has priests standing at the altar offering the eucharistic sacrifice. Contemporary worship has none of these. Thus, Isaiah 61:6 finds its fulfillment in Orthodox worship, not contemporary worship.
Protestants may object to the Orthodox Church having priests on the grounds that because of Christ we have no need for a man to serve as a mediator with God. This objection is based upon a misunderstanding of the nature of Orthodox worship and the office of the priest. Basically, the priest's role is to lead the congregation in worship. If one listens carefully to the litanies one finds the priest addressing the congregation, For … let us pray to the Lord, and the congregation responding with, Lord have mercy. In other words, the congregation prays with the priest, not through the priest. As a matter of fact, in Orthodoxy the priest cannot begin the Divine Liturgy unless the laity is present. This is based on the Orthodox Church's understanding that the priesthood resides in the whole church, not just in the ordained clergy. The participation of the laity is just as critical for right worship as the clergy. This can be seen in the fact that "liturgy" comes from the Greek λειτουργεια (leitourgeia) which in Christian usage refers to worship and in the ancient world referred to "public service." Jesus Christ is our Mediator and he exercises that ministry through his office as the great High Priest. This means it is imperative that we be part of the Divine Liturgy and not off doing our own thing.
Protestants cite I Peter 2:5 as a repudiation of the priesthood. This reading of I Peter 2:5 relies on the illogical reasoning that since we are all priests, no one is a priest. The Protestant reading of I Peter 2:5 has resulted in churches without priests and no altars. Historically the Christian Church has recognized the offices of deacons, priests, and bishops. The practice of an ordained clergy has roots in the New Testament Church. We read in Acts 1:20, "Let another take his office" (NKJV, italics added; see also I Timothy 5:17-22, II Timothy 2:2). Where for over a thousand years Christianity had priests celebrating the Eucharist on altars, after 1500 there emerged a new form of Christian worship that disavowed the priesthood and removed the altar from the sanctuary.
Anyone who compares Orthodox worship with contemporary worship will be struck by how biblical Orthodox worship is and how far contemporary worship has moved away from the Old Testament pattern. When we take into consideration the Old Testament prophecies, the significance of liturgical worship in Orthodoxy becomes even more compelling. Orthodox worship follows the pattern of Old Testament worship and is the fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies. This is the worship God wants in this day and age.
Was Old Testament Worship Abolished?
The Evangelical approach to worship seems to be based on the assumption that Jesus abolished the Old Testament. Because of this Evangelicals ignore the Old Testament teaching on Tabernacle worship and focus on the New Testament for instruction on how to worship God. The paucity of New Testament passages on worship has been taken as grounds for an anything goes approach to worship. But, this assumption is wrong. Jesus made it clear he did not come to abolish the old covenant but rather to fulfill it:
Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them (Matthew 5:17).
An examination of the gospels shows Jesus' adherence to the Old Testament pattern of worship. Jesus was in the habit of attending the synagogue services (Mark 1:21; Mark 3:1; Mark 6:2). Likewise, he observed the great Jewish festivals at the Temple: Passover (Luke 2:41), Feast of Tabernacles (John 7:1-13), and Passover (Matthew 26:18; Mark 14:14; Luke 22:7-11). Like Jews throughout history, Jesus considered the Passover meal the highlight of the year. Jesus told his followers: "I have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer.R

< Elise
this wiki
|Skins & Trivia
|"Submit to my designs."
By NeeksNaman [1]
This patch, we'll welcome a champion with a lot of history into the League of Legends lineup: Elise, the Spider Queen. Originally concepted over three years ago, Elise proved to be a challenging champion to fully realize. Finally coming together as a transform champion, Elise has the ability to assume the form of either a regal mage or a deadly spider assassin.
Like all transform champions, successfully playing Elise involves balancing two distinct kits. More than any of her counterparts, however, the Spider Queen's two forms embody distinct, but complimentary roles. Unlike Jayce, whose kit emphasizes flowing smoothly between ranged and melee skillsets, or Nidalee, who uses her cougar mobility to split push and create distance for her long ranged attacks, Elise's two ability sets separate definitively into mage and assassin roles.
In her human mage form, Elise specializes in keeping her distance using low-cooldown nukes and crowd control abilities. Her spells emphasize wearing down high-health targets in preparation for a brutal finish in spider form. At the heart of this gameplay is Neurotoxin which deals damage based on the opponent's current health. While in this form, she also generates a spiderling each time she casts a spell. Upon transformation into a spider, she summons these spiderlings to fight alongside her. Investing the time to build up your minion count is essential to performing a perfect assassination.
Once she's switched to her spider assassin form, Elise's kit takes on an entirely different theme. She gains a number of bonuses to her melee capabilities, and her spiderlings become active to help rapidly damage an opponent. Using Rappel, she can ascend above the battlefield, vanishing from sight and becoming untargetable for a short duration. Once she's suspended, she can lower herself upon a nearby target, surrounding them with spiderlings. Boosting her minions' Attack Speed with Skittering Frenzy can quickly burst down a surrounded enemy, leaving them vulnerable to execution with Venomous Bite.
Using both spider and human form effectively is the key to making the most out of the Spider Queen. Having the good judgment to stay safe in your mage form while you fight to create the opportunity for a clean spider kill will make or break your success on the Fields of Justice.
- Champion Spotlight
- Recommended Items
- Playing As Elise
- Spider Form is most effective at finishing off enemies with low health; Human Form's Neurotoxin does more damage to healthy foes.
- When in Spider Form, Spiderlings will attack the target that Elise uses Venomous Bite on.
- Elise's Spider Form and Spider Form abilities do not cost mana and can be prioritized when you are trying to conserve mana.
- Playing Against Elise
- Elise's Spider Form is more dangerous when you are at low health, and her Human Form more potent when you are at high health.
- Rappel will only move Elise straight up and down unless she can descend upon an enemy unit.
- Rappel has a long cooldown. Elise is vulnerable after she has used it.
- Ability Usage
- Spider Form is most effective at finishing off enemies with low health; Human Form's Neurotoxin does more damage to healthy foes.
- Using Neurotoxin followed by Volatile Spiderling and then switching forms to use Skittering Frenzy to deal some more damage and, finally, Venomous Bite is very effective.
- Use Spider Form when escaping, as being in this form grants you a small bonus movement speed amount, your Spiderlings will trail behind and possibly block skillshots, and you can use this form's Venomous Bite and Rappel to gap close away to enemy minions or neutral monsters.
- Venomous Bite will still cause you to dash to the target if it dies during the cast time, but the spell will not go on cooldown.
- Venomous Bite will cause Elise's Spiderlings to leap to the target.
- Volatile Spiderling will also leap to the target of Venomous Bite if the created Spiderling is near the target.
- A neat trick with Volatile Spiderling during the laning phase is to aim the skill towards your turret or away from the enemy minions, followed up by a quick Venomous Bite to an enemy champion. The created Spiderling will jump to your target, ensuring the skill will hit.
- Use Spider Form to get back to lane faster, as it gives bonus movement speed.
- Rappel can not see stealthed champions, however it can see those in brush, when suspended in the air.
- Rappel can be used to get over terrain, as long as Elise can find a target.
- Example: Rappel behind Blue Sentinel's wall to grant vision and cast again to descend on it.
- This can be greatly used to steal neutral monsters and objectives such as Baron Nashor or Dragon if positioned correctly.
- Rappel, when used at the right moment can dodge projectiles and delayed AoE spells like Enchanted Crystal Arrow, Trueshot Barrage, Requiem, Absolute Zero, Time Bomb, Dark Matter, Explosive Cask and Ace in the Hole.
- Elise is a surprisingly effective pusher and counter jungler due to her Spiderlings and attack speed steroid. Use Spider Form to take enemy jungle camps, towers, and other structures when the opportunity presents itself.
- Mastery Usage

Helicopter noise still bothers residents
Published: Thursday, March 30, 2006 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, March 30, 2006 at 11:31 a.m.
HOUMA -- The sound of helicopters can be annoying any time of day, but imagine a series of choppers flying overhead at daybreak as youre trying to steal a few more winks of sleep.
For people living to the south or southeast of the Houma-Terrebonne Regional Airport, the noise from helicopters is a daily irritation. A temporary solution reached last month helped control the noise for awhile, but problems have resurfaced.
Airport officials say theres little else they can do except ask the Federal Aviation Administration to investigate. To help persuade the agency to help, they need local residents to document the problem.
If you see a helicopter flying too close to your home, airport officials urge you to jot down the name or number on the aircraft if you can make it out. Even the color of hte craft and the time it went overhead can help. The information should be given to Airport Manager Earl Hicks for compilation. His office number is 872-4646.
Helicopter activity has increased at the airport significantly since hurricanes Katrina and Rita, Hicks said. Because of storm damage, three helicopter operators have relocated to Houma. The largest is Petroleum Helicopters Inc., or PHI, which lost bases in Boothville, Venice and Port Fourchon to the storms, Hicks said. Air Logistics and Era Helicopters also moved some operations to Houma.
Before the hurricanes, the three companies combined had 3,800 monthly takeoffs and landings in Houma. The same three outfits now have about 10,000 monthly takeoffs and landings, Hicks said. Most flights are to and from oil rigs in the Gulf of Mexico. PHI has 8,000 monthly flights alone, he said.
Hicks said almost 95 percent of the flights take a path that is south or southeast of the airport. Its the people who live in those areas who are complaining about the noise.
After the initial round of complaints, airport officials and the helicopter operators agreed to change routes, flying over the areas of the parish where fewer people live. Helicopters essentially began following a due north or due south route depending on their ultimate destination. In bad weather, however, helicopters reverted back to the original route because of limited visibility in fog or rain.
Hicks said the agreement worked well for about two weeks, and then the complaints restarted. Some pilots apparently did not abide by the agreement, and recent heavy winds made approaches into the airport from the south unsafe.
Hicks said the Airport Commission is in charge of the care, maintenance and upkeep of the airport. He said the commission has no control over air-traffic routes. That responsibility belongs to the FAA.
The agency requires inbound helicopters to fly no lower than 500 feet and outbound helicopters to stay above 700 feet. Hicks says the pilots are abiding by those regulations.
He also pointed out that the increased air traffic also means more money is being spent in Terrebonne. Hicks said about 1,500 vehicles were recently parked in PHIs new parking lot.
"As a result 1,500 people are spending money in Terrebonne Parish now that were not spending money in the parish as little as six months ago," he said.
Deborah K. Knoblock, a Presque Isle Drive resident, said her family chose to live in the Bourg area because they wanted a more country-style setting, away from the noise of the city. What started as an occasional annoyance as helicopters passed overhead, she added, has become a daily aggravation.
Knoblock said the choppers often wake her and says she once spotted a helicopter flying so low she ran outside because she thought it was falling out of the sky.
Overall, Knoblock said, she understands the pros of economic development but questions why it should it come at the expense of parish residents quality of life.
Councilman Clayton Voisin knows how noisy the helicopters are firsthand. He said there is a constant stream of helicopters over his house starting about 5:30 each morning. He lives about three miles south of the airport.
"The number has probably quadrupled," he said. "Its tough to handle in the mornings. And a lot of the helicopters come back overhead a little bit before it gets dark."

I have serious performance problem (all of a sudden) on my server (PHP+MySQL). I enabled MySQL slow query log and he started to show some queries that were taking even 25 secs to complete. for example this one takes 15 seconds:

# User@Host: ***[***] @ localhost []
# Query_time: 15 Lock_time: 0 Rows_sent: 1 Rows_examined: 1

WHERE `users`.`id` = 4413

Tilda Supports United Nations World Food Programme with Limited Edition Packs
Tilda's Mums Helping Mums campaign to support WFP's Mother & Child Nutrition programmes through an initiative on specially-marked Tilda Pure Basmati 5kg bags.
June 24, 2013 4:58 by Dinusha
Tilda is encouraging consumers to help provide nutritional support to new and expectant mums in developing countries through a cause-related marketing initiative with the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP). The campaign will be launched in the UAE during the Holy Month of Ramadan.
The partnership aims to connect women throughout the world through the shared experience of cooking, and feeding their families – creating a long-term bond between mothers who buy Tilda and mothers in need in developing countries.
Tilda's Mums Helping Mums campaign will support WFP's Mother & Child Nutrition programmes through an initiative on specially-marked Tilda Pure Basmati 5kg bags. For every bag sold, Tilda will donate two nutritional meals to a mother in need.
To promote the campaign, Tilda is offering a free recipe book which can be downloaded through Tilda's corporate website www.tilda.com. The book includes recipes from celebrities, bloggers and a few of Tilda's own favourites. For every book downloaded Tilda will donate a meal to a mum.
Deepak Thawani, Regional Manager at Tilda, Middle East comments: "Mums Helping Mums is an initiative taken by Tilda to support the World Food Program to provide nutritious meals to expecting and new mothers in developing countries. During the Holy month of Ramadan Tilda will be supporting the United Nations World Food Program to combat world hunger. For each limited edition pack sold, Tilda will donate an equivalent of two meals to WFP which will help them reach out to thousands of mothers and children across the world".
Ashraf Hamouda, Head of Partnership & Business Development, United Nations World Food Programme, MENA, Eastern Europe & Central Asia, adds: "Good nutrition in the first 1,000 days of life is so essential to the strong and healthy development of a child, which is why WFP focuses its nutrition programmes on pregnant women, new mothers and young children. Partners like Tilda help us bring greater attention to this important cause."
The Tilda Pure Basmati Mums Helping Mums 5Kg bag will be available in all major supermarkets across the UAE from July onwards.

Djokovic handles No. 1 Nadal to win second-straight ATP Finals
Novak Djokovic, recently unseated as the World's No. 1 by Rafael Nadal, took down his rival in straight sets 6-3, 6-4 on Monday to capture his second-straight ATP World Tour championship in London.
It was an anti-climactic ending and looked nothing like the epic U.S. Open clash that Nadal captured over Djokovic this past summer. Their 39th meeting ended in just 1:36 minutes, effectively ending the season for Nadal. Djokovic will guide Serbia in the Davis Cup final next week.
For Djokovic, the straight-sets win marked his 22nd consecutive victory, while the title still proved elusive for Nadal, whose left knee reportedly began to act up again on Monday. Nadal uncharacteristically couldn't meet the moment, hitting into four double-faults and 23 unforced errors.
Since losing to Nadal at the U.S. Open, Djokovic has reeled off two wins over the current No. 1 and has handled Roger Federer twice, raising the question of which player is actually the best player in tennis.
"I played against someone who was much better than me tonight," Nadal said, capping what he described as the "most emotional season of my career."
Nadal still leads the head-to-head 22-17, but Djokovic's win means that the two heavyweights split this year's six matches at three apiece.

Senior event is SaturdayPublished 4:58pm Tuesday, November 19, 2013
In this month of Thanksgiving, a local ministry is again showing its thanks to an especially important group of people — Atmore senior citizens.
Dr. Bernard Bishop Ministries will be presenting the sixth annual Senior Appreciation Day on Saturday, Nov. 23, at 6 p.m. The event will be at Deliverance Ministry of Jesus Christ, located at 103 N. 2nd Ave.
The night will include a free dinner and free entertainment, as well as other activities. All citizens 55 and older are invited to come out and enjoy the fun.
"The goal was to do something to honor those special people who have given up so much throughout their lives," Bishop said. "We have always done things for the kids, like 'Stomp the Yard' and other events, but we didn't always have something for our seniors.
"This is just our way for the ministry to give back and do something special for them."

An opinion piece labeled as 'news' written by none other than Fusion's News Director, Kevin Roose, has pronounced the Republican Party dead. Betraying his own glaring partisan/ideological prejudices, Roose ascribes the "terminal decline" of the GOP to the "2009 formation of the Tea Party" before going on to attack Donald Trump as "the illness that led to the Party's demise." The problem with Roose's fanciful take on the state of the GOP, which is dripping with venom against not only Trump, but also several of the rest of the 2016 Republican presidential contenders, is that the facts tell a different story.

The establishment press seemingly never misses an opportunity to smear a conservative's or businessperson's reputation upon their death. For those who need reminders, see how the Associated Press went after Tony Snow in 2008 and how the New York Times treated Cracker Barrel founder Danny Evins in 2012. Today, the AP took matters a step further, using the occasion of a soldier's death to smear his late grandfather.
Charles Keating IV is the Navy SEAL who died in Iraq on Tuesday. His grandfather was the late Charles Keating Jr. Given the elder Keating's historical prominence, the wire service would have been remiss if it had failed to note the family lineage. But in both its early breaking story, and in a later more detailed writeup, the AP treated what Charles Keating did decades ago as more important than a soldier who died yesterday.

Politico's bi-monthly magazine published their third annual "Media Issue," complete with polls of reporters – who are perhaps the most resistant to being polled, fearing how they might reveal which viewpoint is ideologically dominant in the press.
But the media's true tilt might be implied from the question "Knowing what you know now, who do think will be the next president?" It wasn't close. Among campaign reporters, 86 percent said Hillary, and 10 percent Trump (three percent said Sanders). Among the White House reporters, 88 percent picked Hillary, and 11 percent said Trump.

In two separate NBC News updates on the Indiana primary, NBC Nightly News anchor Lester Holt and Meet the Press moderator Chuck Todd gushed over Donald Trump's "breathtaking" win in the Hoosier State that offered a "knockout blow" to Ted Cruz's campaign. Holt led off the first update at 8:43 p.m. Eastern and informed viewers that there was "a major development in the race for president...as Donald Trump scores a big win in Indiana, Ted Cruz is suspending his campaign."

Former Oklahoma County judge relinquishes right to practice law
The former Oklahoma County judge who resigned from the bench because of an adoption fraud case is giving up being an attorney, too.
Tammy Bass-LeSure, 44, on Wednesday asked the Oklahoma Supreme Court to let her "relinquish my right to practice law."
Bass-LeSure was charged last year with fraud over her adoption of twins. After reaching a plea agreement with prosecutors this year, she resigned as a judge, pleaded guilty to two felony counts and was put on probation.
A judge in May ordered Bass-LeSure and her husband to pay almost $70,000 in restitution to the state for obtaining public assistance by false representation. She is appealing the restitution order.
Bass-LeSure and her husband were accused of secretly giving away the twin babies to her bailiff's sister after becoming their foster parents in 2008. Prosecutors alleged the bailiff's sister continued to raise the boy and girl even after Bass-LeSure and her husband adopted them in May 2010. They lost their parental rights to the twins at a trial last year.

Go to L&D now! They may need to get you defus to stop the contractions and make sure you don't start to dilate...or stop it if you've started.
Posted 12/06/2012
You need to call your ob and go in. Its very important those get stopped and to make sure no extra damage has been done
Posted 12/06/2012
I'm praying for you both dear. Please do call the L&D or the on call doc number to see what they suggest you do next. I agree 100% that contractions at this point in pregnancy is nothing to wait on.
Keep us posted hun. ((Hugs))

I hope everything is ok. Now I know why all my coworkers are always concerned with what I am doing and with who. I also work as a CNA with residents that swing at you. I will keep you in much thoughts and hope the contractions stop soon!
