The world loves Paul William's songs and the South Point showroom was filled with adoring fans. Bringing happiness to people makes Paul happy, "I bring the songs and the audience brings the memories. There are 2-3 generations in the audience. For a songwriter to hear someone say, ''¹..."We got married to your song "We've Only Just Begun", that a single mother loved "You and Me Against the World" and the kids who grew up with Kermit the Frog, is heart payment probably as sweet a payment as I will ever get."
He has a warm, natural way about singing his songs. Seeing Paul's performance brought all of his greatest hits together for a fantastic evening! The audience enjoyed video excerpts from his career and Paul's personal stories between songs, "When Charlie Fox and I wrote Love Boat" we called Jack Jones and asked him to record the song. We thought this show probably is not going to last but put my children through college. Today they are playing it somewhere."
Why has Paul's music lasted over so many generations? He feels, "I write straight from the heart. The songs are sung by such wonderful people. When Karen Carpenter sings "We've Only Just Begun", the song suddenly is being sung by an angel! The world is so nasty these days. I write with a sentimental sweeter approach about the best side of people and our ability to fall in love. For some reason it works. I do not know why it works, but thank God it does!"
Paul has found a way to touch people's hearts. He explains, "The real gift of my life is that I can write songs and hear people who I have loved all my life sing them. It gives me that pure, ''¹..."Oh my god, how did I end up here?' moment in my life. To hear Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, Tony Bennett or any of the others singing one of my
songs is as good as it gets. This is something I appreciate more today then I did 20-30 years ago. The longer I am alive the more I appreciate the talent that gave me my life."
Paul Williams is unique because he writes all types of music. Paul realizes, "I have always written in an unconscious kind of place, from a pure emotion and never thought about the genre. One of my biggest country hits, called "Your Gone", became the #1 recording with a group called Diamond Rio. If you listen to it, you would not say that is a country song."
Paul Williams is one of the favorites at the South Point Hotel and will return on July 19 and 20, 2014. For information, call 796-7111.

The PlayStation 4 has just launched, and just as I'm wondering why there's no system-seller, the Japanese giant goes and teases a new Uncharted game for the PS4.
There's absolutely nothing known about the game, other than Naughty Dog is back developing. But, we could expect a new Uncharted game that doesn't feature Nathan Drake, which would be a disappointment - unless it's done right, and it could revolutionize the franchise, hopefully. We should expect more in the coming months, hopefully some gameplay is shown off on the next generation hardware!

My Dear Community,
For many years, my normative practice has been to have one 24-hour period per week free of any engagement of vocational duty and responsibility. Sometimes, the never-ending flow and pace of life of the church, particularly a parish community as vibrant as ours, can make that difficult to do. The past five weeks has been such a period, during which I have had one day off.
I am wont to say to the members of our staff – industrious and committed folk, all! – "there is a reason why 'self-care' begins with self." When we do not exercise conscious stewardship of our personal resources of fitness and wellness, then we run the risk (perhaps, inevitability) of not being able to serve faithfully our livelihood or, indeed, live as fully and freely as we desire. In all of this, I also have discerned that I am far better (quicker!) to give such counsel to others than to receive and follow it myself.
However, over the past five weeks, I have rediscovered that I am no longer 30 (although, in my mind, I often see myself as even younger). As such, I need and will take Sunday-Wednesday, October 28-31 as comp time, returning to my office on Thursday, November 1, All Saints' Day.
Yours truly,
VISION 2020 UPDATE– The Vision 2020 team has been working closely this fall with our architect (Bonstra/Haresign) and our general contractor (Monarc) on the development of "95% complete" construction drawings for our renovation and expansion of the foyer, parish hall and kitchen and undercroft. Once Bonstra/Haresign finalizes these drawings, Monarc will have about a month to draft a full price estimate for construction. As we have shared with you previously, we have asked our architects to develop and Monarc to price separately a number of alternative elements of the project, so that we are best able to determine the feasible scope of the immediate project while planning for the future. Once we have Monarc's estimate, the Vision 2020 team will make a recommendation to the Vestry. After consultation with our parish community, the Vestry will make the final decision on the scope of the project.
The complexity of what we have asked of our architects, engineers, and contractors in laying out the various alternatives has led to unavoidable delays. We had hoped to have the complete price estimate by mid-November; mid-December is more realistic. The Vision 2020 team now plans to deliver a recommendation to the Vestry before the end of this year.
This delay means that the scheduled parish-wide meetings on November 18 and December 2, which were designed to be an opportunity for you, the members of our St. Mark's community, to hear about the latest plans, ask questions, and provide feedback, will be delayed until after the Christmas holiday. There will be opportunities in January for parish-wide discussion and input, with the goal of having a final Vestry decision on the scope of the project slated for the January meeting. Stay tuned for details on the new dates for the parish-wide meetings. As of now, we remain on track for construction to begin next summer.
Once the Vestry has determined the final scope of the project and authorized the procurement of permits for construction, the Vision 2020 team plans to re-open the capital campaign to raise additional funds for the project. We'll be asking those who have not yet pledged to the campaign to do so, and we'll be asking those who have pledged to consider increasing their commitments. Look for additional details on the campaign before the end of the year.
Finally, a gentle reminder to those who have made a pledge to the Vision 2020 campaign: please make sure that your 2012 installment is paid before the end of the year. We need to stay on track with our fundraising as we enter the final pre-construction phase of the project, with an eye toward breaking ground next summer. Current pledgers will receive a reminder statement in the mail in November. Thank you very much!
-- Mike Townsend, Vision 2020 Co-Chair

We aimed at quantifying the impact of continuous wound infusion with ropivacaine 0.33% on morphine administration and subjective pain relief in patients after open abdominal aortic repair in a double-blind, placebo-controlled study.
Before closing the abdominal wound, 2 multihole ON-Q® Soaker Catheters™ (I-Flow Corporation, Lake Forest, California, USA) were placed pre-peritoneally in opposite directions. Either ropivacaine 0.33% or saline 0.9% was delivered by an elastomeric pump at a rate of 2 mL/h for 72 hours in each of the catheters. Postoperative pain and morphine administration were assessed using the numerical rating scale (NRS) in 4-hour intervals. Total plasma concentrations of ropivacaine, unbound ropivacaine, and α1-acid glycoprotein (AAG) were measured daily. Mean arterial pressure, pulse rate, oxygen saturation, total amount of morphine administration, ventilation time, and length of stay in the intensive care unit (ICU) were recorded. At the end of the study period, the wound site and the condition of the catheters were assessed.
The study was terminated prematurely due to a malfunction of the elastomeric balloon pump resulting in toxic serum levels of total ropivacaine in 2 patients (11.4 μmol/L and 10.0 μmol/L, respectively) on the second postoperative day. Six patients had been allocated to the ropivacaine group, and 9 patients had been allocated to the control group. Demographic and surgical data were similar in both groups. During the first 3 postoperative days, no difference between the ropivacaine and the control group was found in NRS (P = .15, P = .46, and P = .88, respectively) and morphine administration (P = .48). Concentrations of unbound serum ropivacaine (0.11 ± 0.08 μmol/L) were below toxic level in all patients.
Continuous wound infusion of ropivacaine 0.33% 2 mL/h using an elastomeric system was not reliable and did not improve postoperative pain control in patients after open abdominal aortic surgery.

Trinity University Press Recognized for Industry Excellence
ForeWord Reviews, The New York Times, and The Atlantic recognize books from Trinity University Press
SAN ANTONIO - Two books published by the Trinity University Press, Maps of the Imagination and Moral Ground, have received recognition by major literary magazines and a national newspaper.
Maps of the Imagination, written by Peter Turchi, professor and director of the creative writing department at Arizona State University, has made The New York Times list of "The 100 Greatest Nonfiction Books" as well as The Atlantic magazine's list of "7 Must-Read Books on Maps and Cartography." Maps of the Imagination focuses on comparing the art of writing fiction to that of drawing a map, as well as providing a detailed history of cartography spanning multiple continents.
Moral Ground, by Kathleen Dean Moore, professor of philosophy at Oregon State University, and Michael P. Nelson, associate professor of environmental ethics at Michigan State University, won the Gold Prize as Best Anthology of the Year (2010), as well as the Bronze Prize for Best Environmental Book of the Year from the editors of ForeWord Reviews magazine. Moral Ground consists of a collection of essays from more than 80 world thinkers, including activists, theologians, scientists, elected officials, business leaders, and writers to discuss the moral obligations that the human race has to the environment. For this competition, more than 1,800 books were submitted for consideration.
Barbara Ras, director of the Trinity University Press, said, "Either one of these accolades for Maps of the Imagination would have been terrific. To have such major recognition back to back from The Atlantic and The New York Times is spectacular. Recognition like this attests to the staying power of an original and appealing book."
Although Maps of the Imagination was published in 2004, it has continued to excite what Ras called "an astonishing range of readers across genres - from map lovers to computer language designers." She said Turchi had a beautiful and original idea, which has been recognized by many awards, wide national and international media attention, and course adoption.
Ras said the Trinity University Press has published another of Turchi's works, an anthology titled A Kite in the Wind: Fiction Writers on Their Craft, edited in collaboration with Andrea Barrett. Ras added, "The new anthology by Turshi uses mysteries and puzzles - much in the way he used maps - to understand how writers write and readers grasp the realities they create."
The Trinity University Press publishes intellectually rich books that make a lasting contribution to culture, scholarship, and knowledge, and to supporting Trinity University's mission to educate for "the personal, lifelong quest for understanding of oneself and one's place in the world." Book topics range from literary to environmental to regional subjects.

Secrets of Success
Stuff I Love or At Least Really Really Like
Saturday, September 05, 2009
1. Husband -- 30 years later, what I still know for sure is that the smartest, luckiest thing I ever did was marrying Mike.
2. Kids -- works in progress (as all we are) but both terrific human beings who make me proud. And of course number one above had quite a bit to do with this item as well!
3. Sister: would never never have survived without her. What an amazing woman, and my admiration for her has only increased as I've watched her dealing with recent serious health problems with grace, dignity, courage.
4. Dog Charlie -- what a sweetie! I've loved all my dogs, heaven will be the place where I'm reunited with every one of them eventually; Fritz, Pepper, Skippy, Kabul, Ambrose, Sabrina and Rufus will also be just inside the Pearly Gates, wagging and smiling! But Charlie is the Platonic Ideal of dogs; loving, companionable, never obsequious, just understanding there is no loss of self in wanting to please others. I have learned a lot from Charlie about how to get along with people! "What would Charlie do?" Greet everyone at the door wagging and with a carefully selected toy!! Wonder what he'll have for me at those Pearly Gates?? (And nope, this isn't irreverent at all).
4. Friends. Understanding, kind, supportive and delivering kicks in the rear end as required!
5. Work colleagues. What a great group of people to share a big chunk of time with every day! And the work itself: keeps the brain ticking over and some days feels like I've been useful to someone . . .
6. Nature: sunshine in its ever-changing manifestations from sunrise to sunset throughout all of the seasons; big skies and distant vistas; birds; flowers; trees; forests; rippling fields of grass; oceans; beaches; tiny northern lakes ringed by white pines; dewy mornings; hoar frost sparkling after sleet storms . . . all of these sights plus the scents of lilac and mown lawn; the sounds of cicadas and howling winds; the textures of bark, fur, powder sand, squishy spring mud. The world is an infinitely beautiful place with the power to sustain and to console us through its sheer loveliness.
7. Food! especially fresh fruits, vegetables -- yup, really really do like these best -- and oatmeal. And dark 85% cocoa chocolate! Which is or should be a food group all its own.
8. Exercise: it makes me feel great right then, and the cumulative effect of exercise keeps me feeling great all day long. Can't buy that feeling, can't achieve it any other way than by sweating it out -- may never want to roll out of bed at 5 a.m. to go to the gym but I'm always glad that I did when it's over and I'm heading for the showers.
9. Anticipation. What's coming next? What am I planning -- what treats are on the horizon to give zest to my days? What great things will happen that I never even dreamed of? Postive anticipation is the reverse of negative worry . . . worry about stuff that may never happen -- and when it doesn't happen I never wish that I'd worried more! So the deliberate cultivation of anticipation helps me manage worry.
10. SparkPeople. This is an amazing site with remarkable resources. Yup, I really really like this virtual community of like minded people!

Two thumbs up,
You have inspired me, more than once. Now I want to put together not only the things I love (makes you cherish them all the more, eh?) and the things I want to do before I meet my maker. I hope your sis is doing well, and what a wonderful thing it is to have you by her side.
I guess my #1 thing would be having a sense of humor and being able to laugh,,,especially at myself. You've got it, too.
And I wish you many more laughs down the road of life.

It's been a couple weeks since I've written to this blog, one reason is because I was on a short detail into Washington DC working in our headquarters in that town. Seems if you remember we (we as a nation I mean) had an oil platform in the Gulf of Mexico that had an explosion and subsequent oil spill problem. My part in our Washington office was to coordinate the Forest Service response to that incident. Our role was to assist the US Fish and Wildlife Service with the clean up of the refuges that are located along the shores of the Gulf.
As a side note, the Forest Service has been managing wildfires and other natural disasters for decades and can mobilize a response team in fairly short order. That said, we may be able to respond quickly but mother nature has something to say about how quickly we control the wildfire.
Now as it seems, other agencies in the Federal Government are getting much better at responding to other types of disasters, such as an oil rig explosion and subsequent spill. For my part, I got to learn about blowout preventers, capping stacks, hard booms, sorbent booms, skimming vessels and other clean up items new to me. Interesting is that the incident command system works for most, if not all, disaster responses though the type of operation may be totally different.
I was leaving DC when Hurricane Earl was moving up the east coast with its associated threats. Did you know the forecasters can track those things from the coast of Africa and with a reasonable degree of certainty predict where they might hit the US? I was looking at satellite information and thinking Earl might go through the Gulf and hit Mexico. The hurricane models predicted it to go up the east coast of the US. I was wrong. Two years ago, I had a chance to work at FEMA in DC when Hurricane Gustav hit Texas with some force. Our nation responded quite well to that one, so unless you happen to live in Galveston or Houston, you may not even remember it.
On a more personal note, my nephew was driving a back highway a week ago last Sunday at about the speed limit of 55 mph. Another driver was estimated to be going about the same speed when he blew through a stop sign hitting my nephew. My nephew's car went airborne, did a half barrel roll and nose dived upside down, into a front end collision with a ditch. Thank God for air bags and seat belts. Though cut and bruised both he and his passenger crawled out and walked away from that accident. I'm not sure there is anyway to look at it and determine what kind of car it used to be.
Then there is my wife's nephew, who with his wife were adoring parents of a baby girl born back in May. At a recent wedding the baby girl's grandfather and I were walking the halls at the reception talking, eachcarrying our grandkids. The nightmare happened yesterday when their baby girl passed away during her nap, for reasons no one knows yet. Our families are in shock. Her name is Ainsley, she was 3 1/2 months old and will be missed.
What do all these have to do with me or with the Forest Service?
Disaster response is part of my job and we will continue to review every situation and learn what we can. One of the messages from the scientists who review natural disasters and then make recommendations, is to keep our forests healthy, adaptable and resilient. Those three concepts should allow our forests to survive through the various threats of wind, fire, drought, etc. I keep those thoughts as part of my thinking for every decision I make.
The oil spill in the Gulf was a tremendous national disaster that occurred underwater, in the ocean, thousands of miles from here and hundreds from any forested area. However, understanding the situation is the Gulf encourages me to keep looking for newer and better ways to utilize renewable biofuels, including the role that our forests and the communities around our forests can play.
My nephew was in a car accident in rural farm lands of Michigan. But this serves as one more reminder that as I work with and interact with Forest Service employees and our neighbors, I will look for both newer, as well as tried and tested ways to work safely, whether driving, working in the forest or canoeing through the wilderness.
And finally, I hugged my grandson a little longer and a little tighter before I put him to bed last night.

Ever Wonder What It's Like to Vault?
September 28, 2010
Vaulting isn't riding. It's dancing on the back of a moving horse. And there's nothing else like it.
By Dusti Hausman in America's Horse
Eight years ago, I was in gymnastics, and I was also showing horses. I liked both sports, but I wasn't in love with them. They weren't challenging enough, I guess.
My dad wanted me to take a riding lesson at a place about 15 minutes from our house. I wasn't really excited about the lesson, but I went anyway. That's when I discovered that the people at that barn also gave vaulting lessons. It was so cool. I even got to try vaulting that day. During my first ride, I got to kneel on a cantering horse. I was hooked.Mom wasn't too sold on it, though, so it took me a couple of months to convince her and Dad to let me try vaulting. But once I got them convinced, I really got into it.
Combining riding and gymnastics presented more of a challenge. They say the first thing a vaulter learns is how to fall off a horse. Vaulting definitely helped me develop my balance, coordination and strength, and helped me learn to ride with my horse, not against him.
Some people compare vaulting to trick riding, but vaulting is much more graceful. In vaulting, the horse canters on a 20-meter longe line, controlled by a person in the center, while the vaulter performs his or her routine on the horse's back.
Roll It!
The 2010 Alltech FEI World Equestrian Games begin this weekend in Lexington, Kentucky. Enjoy an America's Horse classic episode from the 2002 World Equestrian Games held in Jerez, Spain. See the pageantry and excitement as reining makes its debut in the World Equestrian Games.
After I started vaulting, I began going to some small competitions, then I moved on to larger and larger events. Today, I'm participating at the second-highest level of competition in the United States with a team called the Silver Star Vaulters. I compete as an individual, as well as a member of a seven-person team that does a four-minute freestyle routine (with as many as three people on the horse's back at a time) and a compulsory routine.
If you want to perform like a pro, let the "Selecting and Showing Hunter Under Saddle Horses" DVD show you what the judges are looking for in hunter under saddle classes.
A vaulting competition is kind of like an ice skating competition; vaulters are judged on a set of seven technical compulsory exercises and on a one-minute freestyle routine.
The seven compulsory moves range from a seat position with the arm stretched out to swinging into a handstand and flipping over to reverse seat. Each move is designed to help your riding by learning balance, suppleness, strength and rhythm. Each move is performed to an exact standard and graded from one to 10. The freestyle allows a little more creativity. The vaulter makes up her own one-minute choreographed dance, with her own music, costumes and unique moves. Gymnastics exercises like cartwheels and handstands are balanced by the dancing and the music.
The music you choose depends on you and your horse's cantering style. My music is remixed classical – you know, Beethoven and Mozart, with a beat. Everyone has a totally different style, and that's what makes vaulting so interesting to watch.
You won't see contestants at a vaulting competition wearing cowboy hats and spurs. Vaulters wear colorful one-piece leotards and soft-soled slippers. The horse is on a longe line and wears a dressage bridle with side reins and a surcingle, and what looks like a large western saddle pad.
This sport also requires that you have a forgiving, patient partner. I've worked with Filibird Too, an appendix Quarter Horse, for a year now. "Raleigh," who is 17.1 hands tall, is perfect for vaulting and lets me do anything. When I started working with him, we started with ground work, then I began doing simple exercises on his back at a walk, then a trot. After about six months, I began doing exercises on his back at a canter.
If you want to perform like a pro, let the "Selecting and Showing Hunter Under Saddle Horses" DVD show you what the judges are looking for in hunter under saddle classes.
I've been vaulting for nine years, and my goals just keep growing. My biggest goal is to earn a medal at the vaulting "worlds," which are sanctioned by the Federation Equestrian Internationale. They're held every two years, and you have to be one of the top three in the country to make it. The top three vaulters who go to worlds are automatically part of the United States Equestrian Team.
Interested to check out vaulting? You're in luck! Vaulting is one of the equine sports featured at the 2010 Alltech FEI World Equestrian Games. Watch NBC to see American Quarter Horses compete in reining and much more!

We've all been there - that uncomfortable, nose-squishing face-plant into the beach chair that we endure in order to tan our backs. Finally, some NASA-level engineers figured out the solution - put a freaking hole in it! The Ergonomic Beach Lounge Chair ($120) has a face hole for your face holes so you can lie comfortably on your back or your stomach.

Kristy from 4 the love of WOOD started with this pair of mismatched maple nightstands that were picked up during a local curbside spring cleaning. They were similarly styled and Kristy saw the opportunity to make them an official couple.
She says, "I brought them together using the same legs, the same pulls, and the same embellishments." Now the once unlikely pair are a match made in nightstand heaven {giggle}.

Comments about Winsor & Newton Artists' Round Watercolor Brushes:
I was very disappointed with these brushes. For what supposedly are kolinsky sable and the high price I expected long lasting high quality. These brushes, however, seem soft and mushy and don't hold a point. I struggled with them for several sessions over a few weeks and they got worse. I then decided to purchase truly high-end brushes and return these. What a difference! I am now able to paint properly.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Merchant response: We're sorry to hear that these brushes didn't meet your needs, and of course we were happy to work with you on an exchange. If there's anything else we can do to assist you, just let us know!
Great brushes
By Bob

I am using theses brushes in watercolor and they are excellent, excellent, e cells t. They hold a fair amount of paint and handle well. I will replace my brushes with these as they wear out.
#0 round
By foxfirehands
from Lake of the Ozarks, Missouri
I recently used this brush to do detail work on a bird. It worked well, I'm very pleased with the quality.
I plan to buy more.
By whatevs
from NE
These brushes are expensive for me, even on sale, but they are a delight. You can't compare them directly to the same size number in other brands, because they are much larger, size for size.
Brush tip was bent but works good
By larvq
from Bee Cave TX
Brush tip was bent due to packaging. It's good though I wish I ordered the pointed one. Kinda pricy, but I guess it's good.

My daughter left yesterday for her first overnight school trip. Her fourth grade class went to Plymouth, Massachusetts to see the rock where the Mayflower supposedly landed. Last week I wrote about both my daughters' refusal to go to sleep away camp or even do sleepovers because they get too homesick. So it will come as no surprise that this one little 24-hour trip was the cause of weeks of worry, anxiety, and sleepless nights.
Talking to the other parents in the weeks before the trip all I heard was how excited their kids are– blah blah blah. Misha, on the other hand, had a countdown of dread: "Two weeks til I have to leave you. I don't think I can do it Mom. I don't want to go."
It didn't help that 'Sister Mary Anxious' in the next bedroom would chime in with "She shouldn't go, Mom. She's going to regret it the minute the bus pulls away."
I went to her teacher at their granola crunchy school with my woes. Her solution? "Tell her she doesn't have to go. We don't want Misha to have any undue stress in her life." But my counter suggestion to have her go on the trip and let her call me to check in at night was met with a resounding "NO". Not so granola crunchy after all.
So I floated the not-going idea.
"Misha, if you don't want to go, you don't have to go."
"NO!!! I have to go! But I don't think I'll make it. I'm scared I'll just miss you so much."
And there it was. I have a girl who really wants to spread her wings but is afraid she will fall. Secretly I love that my girls like to stick close to home, but I know they need to experience the independence of walking away.
So, as I said, she left yesterday. There were no tears. She had her game face on. Her bag was filled with love notes, treats and her favorite pj's. I didn't get any middle of the night phone calls so I'm assuming everything went well. I'll find out when I pick her up at 5 tonight. Wish us luck!
Has your child ever gone on an overnight school trip?

Are you planning to purchase a home anytime soon? You will need home insurance in Minneapolis. Insurance is a very important component, designed to cover your investments. The same way you obtain a mortgage and a real estate agent is the same way to go about finding home owners insurance.
Because a home is generally the most expensive purchase, home owners should be aware of their policies. The worse time to find out that an insurance policy won't cover a claim is after the unexpected occurs.
What happens when a home is damaged? There are several reasons why damage could occur. When it does you should be secure with the policy coverage you have. Anything can happen in life and that also includes your home. Nature has a way of controlling assets be it a hurricane, lightning damage, hail damage, flood, and fire. Things happen, are you prepared?
For those who are home owners already, have you checked your policy? Are you looking for home insurance in Minneapolis?

Korea to Begin Developing 5G
Korea announced its telecom vision today, stating that it wants to stay ahead of the mobile phone production race and become the leader in wireless market share by 2012. Part of that vision includes a plan to work on developing 5G technology.
The plan is to invest 60 billion won ($58,449,293 US) for the next 3 years developing 4G technologies in hopes that an international standard can be set, in addition to beginning work on 5G.
Korea can see that the goals are indeed reachable, as they are currently in second place in the mobile industry worldwide by producing 250 million phones and exporting $29 billion worth of phones. A push to 4G and eventually 5G may be exactly what Korea needs to move to numero uno.
What does 5G entail? How far down the road can we expect it? No details on that are given, but if the expectation is to corner the market by 2012 it may not be that far in the future. We can't even begin to imagine the lightning-fast speeds 5G would be capable of.
Let's not worry too much about it yet; we still have 4G to anxiously look forward to!

Adam In Exile
The theme of exile of God's people runs through the Bible. When Adam sinned, God sent him out of Eden into Exile. Then He guarded the way of the tree of life, the only means of escaping the death and exile into which Adam found himself.
Exile means "enforced removal from one's native country". Adam's life was supposed to be lived in the Presence of God. However, the sin and the death entered the world through Adam's transgression (Rom. 5:12) and the result was his expulsion from the garden. Since that time, man lived in exile (separated from God through the sin, Isa. 59:1-2) with no escape or atonement for his sin.
God began to teach man about the horrors of exile (separation from God) through many experiences in the lives of the patriarchs and the nation. Throughout history we have lessons of the pain of exile.
Israel in Exile
During the Exodus, Israel was oppressed by the Egyptians fulfilling the prophecy of Gen. 15:13-14. In exile they were afflicted and cried out to God because of their bondage, (Ex. 2:23-24). God heard them and as promised delivered them from Egypt to their own land, ending their period of 215 years in exile under the rule of Pharaoh who oppressed them. After 40 years of wandering in the wilderness, God rolled away the reproach of Egypt and the people entered into the land, were circumcised and ate the first Passover in their own land, (Josh. 5:1-12).
The end of exile is a time of rejoicing when God wipes away the tears shed during the years of affliction and oppression.
Adam is Personified in the Nation
God gave Israel the law at Sinai, just as he gave the law to Adam in the garden. Israel upon entrance into Canaan (the national paradise) had choices of life and death before them as did Adam. They chose to eat the bitter fruit of sin, neglecting God's sabbaths, oppressing the widows and the poor, and committing idolatry and harlotry. God brought the Assyrians against the northern tribes and he removed them from the land sending them into exile into Assyria.
Judah, the southern kingdom, committed the same sins and worse (Jer. 2-3) yet God did not bring their kingdom to an end as he did the north, because of the promised Messiah (Gen. 49:10). However, as they persisted in sin, he sent them into exile in Babylonian captivity in 606 BC, destroying their temple through the hands of Nebuchadnezzar in 586 BC. They were to remain in captivity (exile) for 70 years.
Israel Wept In Babylon
The Babylonians required of Israel a song of Zion during their captivity and as they wept, they said, they could not sing a song of Zion while fettered in Babylonian "chains of captivity and oppression". Through the prophet Isaiah, God promised to deliver them from death (national captivity) and wipe away all their tears. These are tears from oppression and captivity, not the tears of common and every day life.
Like the slaves during the middle passage exile from the African continent and the Cherokees' exiled from Georgia, they formed a trail of tears across the Atlantic and 800 miles across the U.S. respectively. A similar exile in progress today with the Palestinians and the Nakba leaves millions scattered as refugees in exile by forcible removal from their land. Israel's trail of tears led from Palestine to Babylon. This difference was Israel had disobeyed God, and like Adam they were subjected to divine discipline. In contrast, the Africans, Cherokees and Palestinians were the subjects of human greed, evil and deceit.
Common in each case are the tears shed from broken families, abuse, destroyed homes and possessions, harassment, sickness, death, and subsistence in life essentials of water, food and economic depression.
When God gave the decree through Cyrus to allow Judah to return to their land their sorrow was turned into joy and singing. The tears of exile were wiped away. For the rest who oppress and afflict others, God's long-suffering always runs it's course until the cup of iniquity is full. Then comes his wrath unless their is genuine repentance.
God's Ultimate Promise of No More Tears
The true exile however was yet to be overcome. Men were yet under the power of "the sin" as a result of its entry into the world through Adam. They were not "born in sin" per Calvinist doctrine, but they were born into a world into which "the sin" had entered and passed upon all men because all men sinned, (Rom. 5:12-14).
As a result, men were yet in bondage, under the oppression of Satan. Jesus came to deliver man and save him from this fate of death and captivity (Heb. 2:14-15) to live in the new heavens and earth, through the giving of a new covenant were sin would no longer be remembered (Heb. 8:6-13). Isaiah prophesied that God would create a new heaven and earth where the voice of crying and weeping would no longer be heard. He would create his people a rejoicing and a joy. (Isa. 65:17-19).
This is deliverance from sin. It is the end of Adamic death for those who believe in Jesus Christ. The exile has ended for those who place their trust in Christ. It is the fulfillment of Isaiah 25:8-9 which results in salvation in the new heaven and earth, i.e. in the holy city new Jerusalem which came down from God out of heaven.
The tabernacle of God is now with men. There is no more crying, sorrow, death and pain for truly those who mourned because of exile in the sin are now comforted. (Rev. 21:1-4)

I know a thing or two about when and how to pick cayenne peppers. I always plant cayenne peppers in my garden. Some people here in the Southwest prefer jalapenos but I love cayenne and cherry peppers. Cayenne peppers bring a unique flavor to my favorite Mexican food recipes. When do you pick cayenne peppers? When they tell you they're ready.
Let the sun shine
First, here's a few tips on planting and growing cayenne peppers in your garden. These babies love the sun. The hotter the better. They hate heavily nitrogen based fertilizer. Use compost instead. They also love to be neglected. I guess that's why they grow so well for busy people like me. Let them go dry between watering. Their native climate is hot and dry. Cayenne peppers grow best in those conditions.
Cayenne and other peppers really light up a fall garden. Your cayenne peppers may change color several times before they are ready to pick. They usually start off green, then change to orange. The orange will darken to a bright cherry red. Some will go directly from green to red. When cayenne peppers are bright red all over, they are definitely ready to pick. However, you can pick them before they turn from green to red if you prefer them that way.
Cayenne peppers can be picked from the garden and used when green. They are much more flavorful when red. Green and red peppers will have a similar texture. They are both firm. The green peppers are firmer but there is only a small difference.
Note: Once cayenne peppers have been picked, they can be hung to dry, just like other peppers. You can also whirl them in a food processor, bag and freeze them. Actually, picked peppers can be prepared and used in such a wide variety of ways, it's probably best if we move on to the subject at hand.
Size and shape
A cayenne pepper is similar in shape to a jalapeno pepper, but thinner. Cayenne peppers can grow up to ten inches long. Most mature at about 6 or 7 inches. Once a cayenne pepper has reddened, it will likely grow no longer. A cayenne pepper will ripen in the sun once picked, but the flavor is much stronger when it ripens in the garden.
How to pick
Cayenne peppers are quite easy to pick. They can be pulled from the plant with just a slight twist of the wrist. Be sure to hold the plant when picking cayenne peppers to avoid damage. I can get several pickings off one cayenne pepper plant most of the time. For that reason, you want to keep the plant as healthy and undisturbed as possible when picking peppers.
Be prepared to pick a lot of peppers from your garden. Remember Peter Piper? Cayenne peppers grow like wildfire. One plant can produce fifty to a hundred peppers. Two plants produce enough for a family of four. The nice thing about cayenne peppers is you always have plenty to share with friends, neighbors and food banks. Don't forget, you can chop, can or freeze them for later use.

Writing reviews for examiner.com is a thankless job resulting in remuneration of the copper Lincoln kind, even in the months I consume and comment on many books. I suppose I have not worked to generate a following and the opinion of an aging and anonymous female counts for little.
So why do I bother?
The push to write minimum one review per month gives me the impetus to read books I would never pull off the shelf, under the illusion that I make a difference. And I do, to myself.
Monday, I read "The Sun and Other Stars" by Brigid Pasulka. Her debut novel, "A Long, Long Time Ago and Essentially True", received the Hemingway PEN Award. Reading this novel set in a seaside Italian town taught me a great deal about the sport internationally known as football. Pasulka made a point of satirizing Americans and their lack of knowledge regarding what we call soccer.
Yet, within her frequent jabs, Pasulka misstated American realities. Twenty-two-year old Etto observes that his mother left California's shallow history, in search of something deeper. As happens so often, from a civilized perspective, a writer ignores the reality that indigenous peoples occupied California from at the very least 17,000 B.C.E. His mother wouldn't have had to cross the ocean to find civilizations with a deeper history than Hollywood, though this is the general consensus of many Western culture observers who are not from this state.
(This pet peeve also surfaces when I visit Boston and experience the upturned noses of the American History elite.)
What was most revealing, however, was a reference to pop culture. Pasulka referred to Pamela Anderson running on the beach in a red bikini as an iconic moment. My radar went up and I thought, "She means Bo Derek!"
I was right that Pamela Anderson's appearance in a red bathing suit, though compelling, did not inspire the Smithsonian to put it on display. I swore to my kids that it was Derek who ran along the beach, hair in corn rows, wearing the famous red maillot. I could see a poster displaying the suit, clear as a chocolate brownie. But I was wrong, wrong, wrong.
The red suit in my mind was not photographed in the movie "10", but rather on a seated Farrah Fawcett. "It's an honor to see Farrah's famous red bathing suit donated to the Smithsonian Institution, celebrating her place in pop culture," said Ryan O'Neal. "The swimsuit is exactly where it belongs, and I know Farrah is looking down on us today flashing that big smile that we all loved."
Bo Derek's suit in her epoch moment was nude.
All this to say, reading novels takes me to exotic locales, where I experience the fully-realized, sensual world of Etto's San Benedetto. But it also takes me into my self, where I discover distortions within my frame of reference. Googling Pasulka's Pamela Anderson claim, I was forced to recognize vulnerabilities in my memory, which leaves me wondering what other false realities I claim.
Maybe Scott Housenga wasn't as mean to me in sixth grade as I thought. Letting that go could change my life.

The Gazette staff is always looking for ideas for interesting feature stories. Do you have one to share?
University Gazette
Sue Hester can tell you in short order how she turned into a mother
She grew up in Burlington in the 1960s with four brothers, and all
but one was younger.
Her parents worked at the Western Electric plant and got home hours
after all of them got home from school.
Somebody in the household had to establish order.
Somebody had to take care of business.
And that is how Hester found herself cleaning and cooking supper
by age 10.
"Back then, that kind of housework was not what boys did," Hester
said with a hearty laugh.
Maybe it wasn't fair, based on the more egalitarian standards by
which families supposedly operate today. On the other hand, Hester
prides herself in being a person who is not afraid of either hard
work or big responsibilities.
Those two central qualities of character, her co-workers say, is
what made Hester such an indispensable part of the University Honors
Program for the past 25 years.
And they were among the reasons -- along with all the birthday cakes
she has baked for all of them through the years -- 11 of her colleagues
conspired together to nominate her for a 2005 C. Knox Massey Distinguished
Service Award.
Ritchie Kendall, the assistant dean of the Honors Program, described Hester as "the quiet dynamo" behind the program's success. Hester performs her tasks in a way that goes beyond the mechanics of the work to enrich the spirit of the people around her, Kendall said.
Charlotte Williams, a colleague for 20 of Hester's 25 years with the program, said Hester "puts 'super' in the word supervisor." Williams said that Hester became, for everyone involved in the Honors Program, their "Office Mother, counselor, nurse, accountant, mediator, facilitator, baker and overall go-to person."
Williams said she felt privileged to be under Hester's tutelage for so long. After nearly 20 years working together, Williams said, "I still marvel at her consistency and pursuit of excellence in everything she does."
Not quite a hippie
After Hester graduated from Walter M. Williams High School in Burlington in 1968, she got a job at the same Western Electric plant where her parents worked. The idea of going off to college wasn't something that was even talked about in her family.
"We were conditioned to think you go out in the world and get a job and take care of yourself," Hester said. "I was just eager to get out and work and get a paycheck, get me a car, you know, the typical things that teenagers like to do."
She was not quite in as much hurry to get married. She was a full two years out of high school when she married Robert Hester, one of her brother's friends, who in short order took her away from Burlington to see some of the world as his Navy wife.
Hester can still recall her father's reaction after Robert called her from boot camp with the news that he -- they -- would be assigned to San Francisco.
"I hung up the phone and told my mom and dad, 'I'm going to California.' My dad looked at me and said, 'No you are not.' He had forgot at that moment that I was married, you know."
It was 1970 after all, and Hester just giggles when asked what it was like for a young woman from a small town known for its textiles to live in a city that in 1970 was attracting as many gawking tourists to psychedelic Haight-Ashbury as to the Golden Gate Bridge. She calls this period her "hippie years" but quickly qualified the comment by saying Robert had a top-secret security clearance at the Navy and so "I had to reel it in a little bit."
Hippie or not, Hester enjoyed being away from home and in a place where she could experience new things and meet different kinds of people. " I had never done that before," Hester said. "In a way, it was like going off to college."
After three years living on Skaggs Island near San Francisco, she and Robert ended up on a slightly bigger island on the other side of North America -- in Gander, Newfoundland.
A quantum leap
Hester started working in the chemistry department at Carolina in 1974, but it would be another five years before she joined the Honors Program that would become her permanent home.
The program, at the time, was located on the third floor of South Building, then was moved in 1981 to the third floor of Steele where the program -- and Hester -- would remain for the next 18 years.
The big leap forward for the program came in the late 1990s with plans to renovate Graham Memorial to house the James M. Johnston Center for Undergraduate Excellence.
Randi Davenport, the executive director of the Johnson Center, recalls that when the Honors Program opened the Johnson Center some six years ago, its staff consisted of Hester, an associate dean, a part-time assistant and a half-time housekeeper.
"In those days, one and a half positions reported to Sue."
Fast forward six years. Now the Johnson Center has an associate dean, an executive director, an assistant dean, a development officer, two program officers, three advisers, three program assistants, a facilities manager, a maintenance mechanic and six housekeepers, Davenport said.
The rapid expansion of staff reflects the rapid expansion of the Honors Program, and hence, the rapid expansion of Hester's responsibilities, Davenport said,
Eleven people within the Honors Program now report to Hester, Davenport said, not counting the program assistant to President Emeritus William Friday who works down the hall.
Hester unfailingly met their needs with her characteristic dispatch and warmth.
"Under conditions that might have caused other people to 'coast' or leave, Sue has brought gentle good humor to the challenge brought by our great progress, managing budgets, staff and new demands on her time with equal amounts of grace and dedication," Davenport said.
Historian James Leloudis, who began working with Hester in 1999 as the associate dean of the Honors Program, recalls the excitement generated when more than $7 million was raised to renovate Graham Memorial.
The secret not so widely shared, Leloudis said, was the relatively little planning that had been done to turn the center from idea to reality. Hester pitched in however and wherever she was needed, from balancing the books to moving chairs to sweeping floors, Leloudis said.
"Perhaps most important, Sue provided seasoned guidance as we grew our staff from four to 21," Leloudis said. "She set a standard of professionalism and collegiality that fuels a genuine esprit de corps and makes the center an exciting, challenging and reward place to work."
Today, with help from Hester's steady hand, the dream has become reality, Leloudis said. Its lounge and terrace are meeting places for people and ideas, its classrooms enlivened by more than 50 honors classes now offered each term. All told, the center hosts more than 1,000 special events a year to help make the undergraduate experience at Carolina one of the most vibrant in the nation.
People like Hester do much of the work to make it all happen.
"Great ideas seldom go far without imaginative, hardworking advocates who are willing to do the quiet, behind-the-scenes job of making programs run," Leloudis said. "Sue Hester is one of those indispensable individuals."
Friday, in his nominating letter, wrote that he knew Knox Massey for most of his professional career -- and knew what Massey had hoped his award would achieve.
"In Sue Hester's work and service to the University, Knox's dreams are richly fulfilled," Friday said.
Just desserts
The award comes a year before Hester plans to retire from the University and devote more of her attention to family.
In place of her four brothers, she has a grown daughter and son who have given her grandchildren. Her daughter, Jennifer, happens to have married a man with the last name of Johnston. She had two children, 3-year-old Luke and 1-year-old Jake. Her son, Rodney, is married and has a six-month-old baby Abby, along with an 11-year-old stepson, Austin.
Home for Hester and her husband is off of N.C. 86 on the outskirts of Graham.
When she is not doting on her grandchildren, Hester said, she will stay busy in the custom cabinetry shop out back. Her husband Robert is a master carpenter at Duke but operates the business part-time with help from their son Rodney.
Hester expects she will be out there, too, sanding and sweeping and keeping track of the books.
"My job is getting in the way of my life," Hester said. "It really is. I don't have enough time on weekends with my family and grandkids and to work in the cabinet shop."
Hester said she knows she will miss work when the time comes next year to finally call it quits. More than the work, she will miss the people, and the person she knows she will miss most of all is Charlotte Williams.
"You know how people say, 'She's my right hand.' Well, she's left-handed and I'm right handed, so I always say Charlotte is my left hand, and I'm her right. She watched my children grow up. I watched her daughter grow up. She is not just a colleague of mine. She is a dear friend, and part of my family."
The recognition from the Massey -- if not all the attention -- has felt good, Hester said. When she first won it, Hester said, she joked that she had a sense of what actors might feel like after they win an Academy Award. But in the months since, she has come to view it differently as she gazes up at the framed document in her office.
"I sort of feel like it's my degree, my college degree that's hanging on my wall," she said.
Editor's note: This story is the first in a series featuring 2005 winners of the C. Knox Massey Distinguished Service Award. The late C. Knox Massey of Durham created the awards in 1980 to recognize "unusual, meritorious or superior contributions" by University employees. The award is supported by the Massey-Weatherspoon Fund created by three generations of Massey and Weatherspoon families. Chancellor James Moeser selected the honorees from nominations submitted by the campus. They each received an award citation and $6,000 stipend.

Can't sign him until July of next year I believe.
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Wow 30 days became 1 year. I would think if it's an in season trade, it's a one year thing. But for a guy like Harrellson who is essentially fighting for a roster spot, you should open up all 30 teams to him to fight for that spot. Toss in the fact that he didn't have a guaranteed deal. I mean you cut a Ron Artest, he's still getting his contract paid. But for a Harrellson now, he's essentially unemployed and to shut out 1 possible employer, is hard to swallow. If I was his agent, I'd go take the NBA to court on this.
Yeah jorts cant be resigned until Next Year (July).. but good job good effort i love the thread title
John Hollinger @johnhollinger
For those asking, Knicks can't sign Jorts til next July. Will probably be claimed on waivers by somebody like Cleveland or New Orleans.
Damn, got beaten to it twice... Jorts won't be able to sign with us.
But Kidd Karma has a point, eliminating one team as an option for a player isn't great, but it does stop a colusion type situation where an agreement is made to trade a player only for him to come back.

iPads in Education – Free iBook for educators.
August 21, 2014
Its been a bit quiet on the blog front. Since breaking up i've been putting my energy into finishing my iBook…. and now it's complete!
This is my first iBook which I have designed to guide you from beginner on the iPad to feeling confident enough to use iPad in your classroom.
"iPads in Education" https://itunes.apple.com/us/book/ipads-in-education/id909265608?ls=1&mt=11
I've put some ideas for using iPad in the classroom in here, but I certainly do not think that this is "the answer". There are so many different ways to achieve results, that is what makes working in schools so interesting, so please, do get in touch and let me know how you are using iPad in your classroom.
This is version 1…. so expect a few typos in here!

White Sulphur Springs, W. Va. -- There's a handful of players for the New Orleans Saints facing a make or break 2014 season. Cornerback Patrick Robinson is one of the players topping the list.
The enigmatic Saints career for Robinson, a former first-round pick by the Saints in 2010, could come to an end at the end of this season as his contract expires after this season. At least early on in training camp, Robinson appears to be on an upswing.
Robinson was one of the few bright spots on defense during Saturday morning's training camp practice at The Greenbrier. He came up with consecutive pass break ups during team drills.
First, Robinson batted down a pass intended for Brandon Coleman as he reached over Coleman's shoulder to knock away the Ryan Griffin delivery. Next, Robinson swatted away a Griffin offering intended for Charles Hawkins in the middle of the field.
Robinson is engrossed in a battle for the starting cornerback spot with Champ Bailey, Corey White and Stanley Jean-Baptiste. Robinson and Bailey have been rotating practice reps with the first-team defense, which is a plus for Robinson.
"He's looking great," defensive coordinator Rob Ryan said about Robinson after Saturday's session. "He's competing with Champ and Corey White. That will be a great competition all camp. We're blessed to have some really good football players and Patrick looks great."
2. Who's hot/play of the day: Calling Jimmy Graham the "hot player" almost seems like the easy way out. But the honor couldn't be avoided because of what he pulled of Saturday morning.
Graham came up with several catches throughout Saturday's practice, two of them with tight coverage by Curtis Lofton and David Hawthorne, respectively. It showed quickly there's no lost connection between Graham and Drew Brees.
Then Graham hauled in the catch of camp. Brees lofted a pass to Graham on a deep route up the seam. Graham snagged the ball with one hand over rookie safety Vinnie Sunseri and scampered off to the end zone. Then, he gave the crowd what they wanted with the one-handed jam over the goal post.
No fines here at The Greenbrier for the dunk.
3. Who's not: The Saints secondary struggled with some miscommunication Saturday. Ryan even mentioned how much the offense "kicked our butts" after practice.
Confusion between Robinson and Kenny Vaccaro left Andy Tanner with no one within 20 yards of him as Brees hit Tanner on a deep ball during team drills. Vaccaro expressed his frustration with a shout and a gathering with Vaccaro, Robinson and secondary coach Wesley McGriff followed right after the play.
Earlier in practice, Nick Toon found his way behind the coverage in seven-on-seven drills and Brees spotted him for what turned into about a 50-yard TD catch and run. Toon caught another deep TD pass down the sideline from Brees against the third-team defense as again a receiver ran a route where no one was within 20 yards of him.
Rough day to say the least.
4. Lagniappe: Parys Haralson received the first-team snaps at outside linebacker with Victor Butler finding his snaps with the second team. The roles were reversed Friday. ... Tim Lelito continued to take the first-team snaps at center with Jonathan Goodwin seeing time with the second unit. ... White saw some time playing at safety with the first-team defense. He played the center-field role when the Saints implemented their three-safety look. ... A half-dozen players fielded kicks as kick returners: Brandin Cooks, Travaris Cadet, Tanner, Hawkins, Pierre Thomas and Derrick Strozier. The role seems like it should be for Cooks, but the Saints may want to avoid giving Cooks double duty in special teams as his role should be plentiful on offense.
5: Quotable: "I feel 30 and I want to coach until I'm 80." -- Saints coach Sean Payton in response to Brees saying Friday he can play until he's 45
