7 Good Reasons To Stop Looking at Porn Right Now
There are certain topics I return to on a regular basis and, if you are a regular reader of this site, you know that one of those topics is pornography. I return to it again and again because I see the damage it is doing and I see the despair of those who are caught up in it. My goal for today is simple: I want to give you 7 good reasons you need to stop looking at porn right now.
What does it mean to Work Out Your Salvation?
I think a lot of believers don't know what it means to work out your own salvation. Many, I've come to realize think this means that salvation comes by works and not of free gift of grace through Jesus Christ. So, let's study this. I found a great little bible study on this passage below.
There is a lot of noise, lots of "religions" and beliefs out there to confuse anyone. But, Jesus is real. He loves you, He's ready to forgive you for all your sins and make your heart His dwelling place. Read about God's characteristics and attributes and get to know the real Jesus today.
How do I accept Jesus as my Savior?
How To Be Friends With God
Why believe in Christianity?
The Attributes of God
The Healing Tree
Have you ever experienced a bitter disappointment in life? Perhaps you are going through a time of incredible testing right now. Well, today you can be encouraged as Derek explains that "Man's disappointments are God's appointments." Through the bitter waters of Marah, God revealed the way to healing through the "The Healing Tree."
Finding God's Will
When you make a decision, how do you know you are choosing to do the right thing? In this message, Dr. Stanley explains why we have trouble discerning God's will and how sin affects our ability to walk in the path He has chosen for us. He also encourages us to discover the Lord's will through reading the Word of God, praying faithfully, trusting our heavenly Father's sovereignty over our circumstances, and listening to the wise counsel of others.

Geneva, Switzerland (Sports Network) - Tomas Berdych beat Stanislas Wawrinka
in Sunday's first reverse singles rubber to give the reigning champion Czech
Republic an insurmountable 3-1 lead over Switzerland in their best-of-five
opening-round Davis Cup tie. The Czechs will face Kazakhstan in April's
The world No. 6 Berdych was tested by the 17th-ranked Wawrinka en route to a
6-3, 6-4, 3-6, 7-6 (7-5) decision in 3 hours, 15 minutes on the indoor
hardcourt at Palexpo. Berdych broke Wawrinka's serve three times, while the
disappointed Swiss slugger settled for only two breaks on Day 3.
The former Wimbledon runner-up Berdych and Wawrinka battled in the longest-
ever Davis Cup match on Saturday, when Berdych paired with Lukas Rosol to
outlast a Swiss tandem of Wawrinka and Marco Chiudinelli in five sets in a
record 7-hour, 2-minute war of attrition, which included an epic 24-22 fifth
A dead rubber between Swiss Henri Laaksonen and Czech Jiri Vesely is currently
in progress.
Switzerland played without the legendary Roger Federer this week, as the 17-
time Grand Slam champion opted against playing for his country this time
The Czech Republic, which beat Spain in last year's Davis Cup final, is now
2-1 all-time versus Switzerland and has won their last two meetings.

With the 94th Map of the Week we continue in the Slovanian Border March with a look at a typical inland settlement.
There are two basic kinds of small settlements in the Border March and elsewhere in Slovania, inland settlements and border region settlements. Today, we look at the second of the two types. This map is not of a specific settlement but rather typical for most inland settlements.
Key to the map of a typical inland settlement
The unnumbered buildings all are farmhouses and barns with outhouses. Note that not all towns in a cluster will have a mill.
1. Mill pond.
2. Mill stream.
3. Main river or creek.
4. Grain mill.
5. Gardens.
6. Public well.
7. Farm fields.
You can get the map in two versions:
1. The Fractal Mapper (TM) 8 version in FMP format, fully editable, from our Jörðgarð web page (21.5 MB).
2. As a JPG flat map of 3000 Pixels x 2250 Pixels (2.7 MB), available above.

In Georgia, Lieutenant Governor Mark Taylor is now making a bid for the top job. The Democrat is running TV spots promising to legislate video games.
It's the second ad we've seen in the last 24 hours that seems to equate the threat of violent video games with that posed by online predators. The other is from Ed Perlmutter (see following article) from Colorado.

No matter how well you pamper your skin, you will find dirt, oil, and even debris on your skin and in your pores every evening. Makeup, dust, oil, and dirt fill your pores, creating the perfect recipe for blemishes and eliminating that much-sought-after healthy glow. Fortunately, DCL Cleansers can help keep your skin clean and refreshed, exposing the healthy, glowing skin you've always wanted. Add gentle but effective DCL Cleansers to your daily skin-care routine to rid your skin of excess oil and dirt, reducing your risk of clogged pores and unsightly blemishes.
The line of DCL Cleansers offers products for a variety of skin types and situations. DCL Cleansers can remove excess oil from naturally oily skin or gently clean skin that recently underwent dermatological treatments. Gentle but medicated formulas effectively cleanse skin without leaving it red or irritated from harsh ingredients. No matter the DCL Cleanser you choose, the result is the same: clean, healthy, glowing skin. Don't let those clogged pores turn into unsightly blemishes that leave your skin looking anything but healthy. Start your skin care routine with DCL Cleansers as your first step toward cleaner, healthier skin.
Everyone has different skin types and problem areas, so a one-size-fits-all cleanser simply isn't realistic. DCL Cleansers offer a line of product that treat different skin types, from normal to oily, and skin conditions, from excess oil to blemishes. DCL Cleansers don't simply treat existing problems. They also pave the way for healthier skin by ridding skin of dirt, oil, and other pore-clogging buildup that can leave skin looking anything but healthy.
You want to keep your skin clean without stripping the skin with harsh cleansers. DCL Non-Drying Cleansing Lotion leaves your skin clean and free of dirt and impurities in a gentle way. Perfect for dry, damaged, or sensitive skin, DCL Non-Drying Cleansing Lotion works well after dermatological procedures, such as chemical peels and laser treatments. DCL Non-Drying Cleansing Lotion creates moist, supple skin. Massage the lotion into your skin, and rinse off with water or wipe off with a tissue for healthier skin.
An effective cleanser does more than just eliminate dirt and oil from your skin. It also treats current blemishes and prevents future breakouts. DCL B Prox 10 Wash does just that with its medicated formula consisting of 10% Benzoyl Peroxide. Massage this formula onto moist skin on the face and body to eliminate excess oil and blemishes from your skin.
Your pores fill with oily, waxy buildup that can result in blemishes. With DCL Wash-Off Cleansing Lotion, you can unclog your pores, dissolving this buildup and uncovering clean, refreshed skin. Use this deep cleanser on normal to oily skin; apply to wet skin, work up a lather, rinse, and pat dry for healthy skin.

Sharing a nest — a tale of two sisters
(Page 2 of 3)
"You're so dramatic," she says. "I'm moving eight minutes away."
"It's not the same," I say.
Today is moving day from my house. She's only one person, but she has major stuff — big stuff, a lot of stuff, more stuff than you can imagine — in the basement, in her room, in the den and in one of the upstairs bedrooms. This is besides all the furniture and boxes that will be delivered to her new house from storage by real movers.
She looks around this morning in her very relaxed way and says, "I guess I'll move all this stuff out over the next few months." I channel my inner Kim Jong Il. "If you go, all this goes with you," I say, and with that my husband and I and Meryl and her man friend start packing boxes and dragging stuff that ultimately fills two vans and two cars.
For reasons I will never know, Meryl had bags of dried gourds from her East End garden in my basement. And boxes of beads from her craft years, and a dozen Tangle Art books from her Zen tangle years, and several new pairs of size 4 genuine Indian moccasins, still in the original boxes, and cake pans under the bed, and several bags of old clothes that she meant to give away two years ago.
There were two 50-pound busts of minor Greek gods, several industrial-size rolls of fabric and dozens of plastic containers from the days when she brought her lunch to school. Not to mention a ponderously heavy metal towel warmer. She never leaves a home without it.
We fill the vehicles and drive to the new house and begin hauling cartons.
Meryl and I came from the same nest (our 90-year-old mother). We lived together for 20 years before I left to get married, and then again these last four or six years. It was a turn in our lives that neither of us expected, and it led to this sweet interlude.
Now she is thrilled to have her own living space, and especially her own cooking space. As she says, and I admit, in Randi's house, it is Randi's kitchen. I am the self-anointed culinary queen and there are no other members of the royal family. I've done all the cooking these years, and I've loved it. Meryl says that the grub has been good, aside from a preponderance of kale in recent health-conscious years.

Associated Press Release
ATLANTA (AP) -- Gov. Nathan Deal has signed legislation to lower grade requirements for recipients of the HOPE Grant program, which helps students attending the state's technical colleges.
Deal signed the bill during a Wednesday event at the Technical College System of Georgia's annual leadership summit.
Deal says the bill works to strengthen the state's workforce, saying "we need more college or technical college degrees in order to attract and fill the jobs of tomorrow."
The bill returns the qualifying grade point average to 2.0 after it was raised to 3.0 two years ago because of budgetary concerns. In the years since, there was a notable decline in enrollment.
The governor's office says recent growth in lottery revenues, which fund the program, will cover the additional $5 million to $8 million cost.

Phil Trenary and the Greater Memphis Chamber
Phil Trenary has been named the new president and CEO of the Greater Memphis Chamber.
Trenary is the second leader of the economic development agency in a row to come from the aviation industry. Trenary, the former president and CEO of Pinnacle Airlines, is taking over from former Northwest Airlines executive John Moore, who retired in January. And the previous chairman of the Chamber's Board of Directors was former Memphis and Shelby County Authority president and CEO Larry Cox.
Though the Chamber hired the Centre Group to conduct a national search for Moore's replacement, the Chamber Board's executive committee selected Trenary, at least in part, because of his established roots in economic and community development circles.
City Councilman Harold Collins, who privately urged Trenary to stay in Memphis and consider the leadership position at the Chamber, applauded the selection.
"I always thought (Trenary) would be an excellent choice because he already knows the lay off the land in Memphis having spent a considerable amount of time leading Pinnacle and being a good corporate citizen in Memphis," said Collins. "I think (Trenary) being named the new president and CEO makes it a seamless transition."
Trenary takes the reigns of the organization as it seeks to loosen poverty's grip on the Memphis area through job creation and retention efforts, which include an increased focus on early childhood education and local politics. Currently, the Chamber is urging the city to switch to a 401(k) retirement system instead of relying on its traditional pension program, which is severely underfunded.
Trenary said this week he has been impressed with the coordinated commitment local stakeholders – from individuals to neighborhood organizations, community groups and companies – have shown toward moving Memphis forward. Trenary also said he was particularly excited by the prospect of a new generation of Memphians getting involved.
"The young people understand that something is happening here and we have to understand and embrace that and if we do we'll be off to the races," Trenary said.
Trenary, 59, lives Downtown with his wife, Bridget and their children, Justin, Brittney and Pearce.

No doubt you've noticed gas prices falling recently. You probably also notice when you fill up how different prices can be from town to town, or just down the street, even among the same company in the same town. The question many want to know is why?
On October 2nd we saw gas prices in Washington at $3.44 a gallon. Less than 20 miles away in Greenville prices were $3.85 a gallon, 41 cents more.
And the story is similar across Eastern Carolina and town to town.
October 22nd in Goldsboro we saw gas at $3.24 a gallon. Just 6 miles away ethanol-free regular was $3.99, 75 cents more a gallon.
In our quest to get answers, we headed to Selma, NC where the Colonial Pipeline is located. That is where the majority of gasoline eventually sold in Eastern Carolina is first pumped into trucks and then transported our way.
Truck after truck pulls in and out of the facility 24-7. Industry experts tell WITN there's little difference, if any, in the price retailers pay for the gas coming out of the pipeline, regardless of how much they buy.
So what happens from the pipeline to the convenience stores in Eastern Carolina to cause such drastic price differences? None of the executives from the retail locations in the east WITN contacted were willing to do an on camera interview to explain. One even said he feared for his job if he talked to us.
Gary Harris is the executive director of the NC Petroleum and Convenience Marketers Association. He says competition is perhaps the biggest reason prices vary so much. "What really drives these guys is what everybody else in the market is doing"
While consumers may compare gas prices 10, 20, 30 miles away or more, we're told the competition for retailers is essentially a mile or two.
Another big factor is the cost to get gas from Selma to the retailers, along with overhead, credit card transaction fees, and whether retailers are trying to make money off the gas, or just use it to get you in the store to buy other items.
Harris also says additives drive up the cost of brand name gas versus unbranded. After all that, he says retailers are making pennies on the gallon. "Most people think gasoline retailers make tons of money off a gallon of gasoline. That's not the case, usually it's in the single digits."
Harris also says wholesale prices, what the retailers pay, contribute to the fluctuations because they change twice a day. So a store may have more expensive gas that hasn't been sold yet, while another gets a shipment of cheaper gas.
While you may have a better idea now why industry experts say the prices differ so much from station to station, doing something about the high gas prices is another story. But you can affect prices. The experts tell us when consumers seek out the cheapest gas, that helps drive down higher prices elsewhere.
There are fixed prices that all retailers pay that don't change from station to station. According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, this is how the costs of a gallon of gas break down: 62% crude oil, 18% refining, 11% taxes, 9% distribution & marketing. The crude price is a commodity so it is set by the markets in the U.S. and around the world.

1000 miles and not one oil drip, nothing loose, not one problem, not even a minor irritation to talk about. It doesn't get better than this
Oddly enough, I miss one thing about my old military that I sold (and it's probably the only thing...another story...) . I miss the SMELL. you know, that smell of hot metal, oil, gasoline, and leather, all mixed together. My old bike stunk of it, and it was great! This one's almost TOO clean!
Ya know what? when the C5 is good and hot it has a certain smell too, not bad at all

Former Guns 'N' Roses and Velvet Revolver stars Slash, Duff McKagan and Matt Sorum's new supergroup is planning a star-studded benefit in Hollywood next month.
The group, Kings of Chaos, will perform with guitar great Steve Stevens, Corey Taylor, Glenn Hughes and actors Juliette Lewis and Gary Dourdan onstage at the Avalon Hollywood on Nov. 18 to raise money and awareness for conservationist Ric O'Barry's Dolphin Project, an international organization dedicated to saving dolphins from slaughter and exploitation.
The concert, billed as Tokyo Celebrates The Dolphin, will be the group's only North American performance in 2013.
Organizer O'Barry tells WENN, "We'll add a few Japanese friends to our line-up and rock the socks off Tokyo. There isn't a better way to bring Westerners and Japanese people together than rock and roll and the world should also know about the wonderful relationship between Japanese people and dolphins in the Tokyo Islands."
Longtime O'Barry supporter Sorum adds, "I'm thrilled to bring a bunch of superstars together for a fun night with fans. The main thing is to keep creating awareness for the Dolphin Project and everyone involved."
Kings of Chaos made their Australian live debut in April at the Stone Music Festival in Sydney and the group toured South and Central America last year under the name Rock 'n' Roll Allstars.
The supergroup will embark on a new South American tour at the end of November.

Governor-elect Jennifer Granholm has sent word, even before she takes office, that she and Lt. Governor-elect John Cherry will turn down any pay raise.
In a letter to the State Officers Compensation Commission, Ms. Granholm said that given the state's budget crisis she will reject any attempt to raise her salary in the fiscal year 2005-06.
Incoming Senate Majority Leader Ken Sikkema, a Wyoming Republican, also wrote to the commission saying it is too early to consider any pay raise for government officials.
Here are the current annual pay rates:
All but the justices receive expense allowances and legislative leaders receive supplemental amounts.

The AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame is pleased to thank its sponsors and guests for a successful Bike Week tribute to Mr. Daytona, Scott Russell, as the featured speaker for the 25th Annual Yamaha AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame Breakfast at Daytona, presented by Motul.
Yamaha AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame Breakfast at Daytona, presented by Motul photo gallery
Nearly 200 supporters enjoyed a morning of great stories from Russell's career that touched on everything from his five Daytona 200 wins to textbook rental car fiascos to an infamous evening in downtown Daytona and more.
The breakfast kicked off with an introduction by Yamaha's Bob Starr, who kidded Russell a bit by offering interviewer Ben Cheatwood a book on "How to Speak Southern," so that people would have no problem understanding Russell's famed Georgia accent.
"I kid, of course," Starr said. "We're just pleased to count Scott as part of the Yamaha family of champions."
For his part, Russell was at turns the brash Daytona 200 winner and racetrack star he was known for during his racing career, and the more thoughtful and thankful TV commentator and esteemed former racer he is today.
When you were on top of the racing world as Russell was in the late 1990s and early 2000s, it was tough not to enjoy the success.
"For whatever reason, and I don't know why, every time, I just knew I was going to win the Daytona 200 when I turned off the interstate onto U.S. 92 in Daytona on race weekend," Russell said. "There's just something about this place that always clicked for me."
Daytona clicked so well, in fact, that not only did Russell win the Daytona 200 five times on two different brands, the two second-place finishes kept him out of first place by a combined total of 0.06 seconds.
Russell was thankful for the support of the people and companies that had supported him over the years, including Yamaha, Muzzy Kawasaki and Motul. "I couldn't have done any of that without them, and I really appreciate it," he said.
One audience question from Motul's Dave Wolman on the subject of rental cars drew plenty of laughter from the crowd with Russell's response.
It was an innocent mistake, Russell noted, but when he climbed into a the passenger seat of a rental car with Rob Muzzy at the wheel after meeting at an airport near a racetrack, Russell inadvertently told Muzzy to take the wrong exit from the parking lot—across a set of one-way tire shredding barriers.
"We went over it, and sure enough—boom—the front tires just blew," Russell said. "Then he just looked over at me, and drove the back wheels over the same thing—boom, Then we were just sitting there in the parking lot on the car rims.
"I had to buy him four new tires after that one!" Russell said.
Then there was the time Russell was a high-profile no-show at the Daytona 200 after getting in an altercation at a Daytona nightclub the night before the race. Telling what can only be described as "the rest of the story," Russell noted, laughing throughout, that the altercation started after a guy at the bar took exception to Mr. Daytona being in the establishment. Things escalated, and finished with Russell taking a punch in the parking lot that broke his jaw.
In the end, he says, it was probably for the best, as his chance of winning the race the next day were not in his favor, anyway. "Truth be told, I'd rather get beat up downtown the night before, than come out here and get beat up on the track," he laughed.
Through it all, Russell said, he never realized he would one day wind up in the AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame. "It's humbling," he said. "I never thought something like that was possible, that I'd be on TV as a commentator or sitting in this chair right here today. It's pretty amazing, really."
