Publisher's Description
Sometimes it seems we just can't get what we want. Circumstances thwart our best-laid plans. We struggle to live a heartfelt life. Worst of all, says Eldredge, the modern church mistakenly teaches its people to kill desire (calling it sin) and replace it with duty or obligation (calling it sanctification). As a result, at best Christians tend to live safe, boring lives of resignation. At worst, their desire eventually breaks out in destructive ways such as substance abuse, affairs, and pornography addictions. In The Journey of Desire, Eldredge invites readers to rediscover God-given desire and to search again for the life they once dreamed of.
Author Bio
John Eldredge is an author, a counselor, and a teacher. He is also president of Ransomed Heart, a ministry devoted to helping people discover the heart of God, recovering their own hearts in Gods love, and learning to live in Gods Kingdom. He lives near Colorado Springs, Colorado.

NEW YORK, Feb. 12, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Sports Illustrated Swimsuit 2013 takes an unprecedented journey to all seven continents, delivering fashion, beauty and earth's most exotic destinations across print, tablet, mobile, web and television. Available on newsstands and on digital platforms now, the story of breathtaking SI Swimsuit models in equally beautiful locations around the world, including the red-hot cover shot of Kate Upton in Antarctica, provides fans access to over 650 high resolution images and more than two hours of high definition video.
To view the multimedia assets associated with this release, please click: http://www.multivu.com/mnr/60110-2013-sports-illustrated-si-swimsuit-issue
(Photo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20130211/MM55120)
Upton, a 20-year-old Melbourne, Fla. native, is the first back-to-back SI Swimsuit model to appear on the cover since Tyra Banks (1996, 1997) and joins Elle Macpherson (1986, 1987, 1988), Christie Brinkley (1980, 1981) and Paulina Porizkova (1984, 1985) in the elite group of women who've appeared by themselves on the coveted cover in back-to-back years.
"Kate Upton joins the legacy of repeat cover models that have risen to international stardom from appearing on the cover of our iconic brand," said MJ Day, senior editor of SI Swimsuit. "Adding to her legacy is the historic nature of SI Swimsuit 2013—we shot on all seven continents, including the first ever fashion shoot in Antarctica, where the beautiful images of Kate transcend photography, making it a great choice for the cover and all of the digital Swimsuit platforms."
The 220-page magazine features spreads of Swimsuit models in all seven continents, including four new Swimsuit model rookies, body paint in the Bahamas and four world class athletes. The magazine also includes essays on each of the exotic locations by SI editors and writers.
New for the SI Swimsuit multiplatform effort include: a tablet edition and mobile app with more than 150 high resolution photos and over 75 high definition videos; a rebuilt website with a fully liquid homepage and supercharged with scrollable photo galleries and videos from each location shoot; Swim Daily, a new daily destination for Swimsuit news, photos, interviews and videos; a live show on Si.com leading up to a spectacular live projection mapping event; three Google+ Hangouts; and a Travel Channel special on Feb. 17 at 8:00 p.m.
A breakdown of SI Swimsuit multiplatform content:
- Tablet: Available to download on major tablets and free to current SI subscribers, the tablet edition features all of the magazine content, plus 360-degree body painting, and over 75 videos, including three up-close videos of each of the 17 models and video features from all seven continents.
- Mobile App: The newest app features pinch and zoom for all photos, 360-degree body painting, Swim IQ (the guess-the-model trivia game, which will allow users to earn points and unlock videos and photos), and is airplay enabled. Fans can update the 2012 app or download for free in iTunes. And if that's not enough, users can upgrade to the premium app at si.com/mobile to unlock all of the 2013 pictures and videos.
- Website – www.si.com/swimsuit: The newly rebuilt SI Swimsuit website features images from each location shoot and more than 75 videos that take you behind the scenes with the models. Fans can vote for their favorite rookie model at SI.com/rookies and win a chance to accompany a crew on a forthcoming Swimsuit photo shoot at si.com/swimsweeps.
- www.SwimDaily.com: A new daily online destination for non-stop news, photos, interviews and videos throughout the year. SwimDaily will have daily content from models, behind-the-scenes stories from the hard-working editorial team, exclusive interviews, an always-updating Instagram feed powered by the girls themselves, and more.
- SI Swimsuit 2013 Live on SI.com: Swimsuit model Chrissy Teigen and SportsIllustrated.com managing editor Matt Bean will host a live show at 10:00 p.m. ET Wednesday, Feb. 13 powered by Lexus featuring model interviews, clips from the upcoming Travel Channel behind-the-scenes show, sit-downs with creative director Chris Hercik and senior Swim editor MJ Day, and more. The climax: a live stream of the Swimsuit projection mapping event on February 13 at 11 p.m., where a Swimsuit sizzle reel will be beamed on the facade of Caesar's Palace in Las Vegas.
- Social Media: The Sports Illustrated Swimsuit launch is fully interactive. On Twitter check out @SI_Swimsuit and follow the hash tag #WhereIswim; become a fan on Facebook (Facebook.com/SISwimsuit) follow on Instagram; and participate in three Google+ hangouts at plus.google.com/+SISwimsuit:

- Feb. 14: 6:00p.m. ET- Spend Valentine's Day with Kate Upton and Katherine Webb with host MJ Day (Las Vegas)
- Television: To find out what is was like to visit every continent, fans can tune into a TV special "The Making of Swimsuit 2013: 7 Continents, 17 Wonders," which premieres Feb. 17 at 8 p.m. on the Travel Channel

Overnight sensation Katherine Webb, making her first SI Swimsuit appearance, was shot in New York City. In addition, this year's Swimsuit continues the tradition of featuring world class athletes, as pro surfer Alana Blanchard, Australian hurdler Michelle Jenneke and Dutch field hockey players Eva De Goede and Ellen Hoog were photographed in Las Vegas.
Sports Illustrated will launch the 2013 issue with a destination-wide celebration February 12 to February 15. The Launch week schedule includes:
- SI Swimsuit Launch Party hosted by Crimson in New York City: A party for SI Swimsuit partners, media and VIP guests to be attended by the 2013 Swimsuit models prior to jetting off to Las Vegas. Celebration begins at 5:00 p.m. on Feb. 12.
- SI Swimsuit Live Projection Mapping Event hosted by Caesar's Palace: If you're near Caesar's Palace (or a computer) on Feb. 13 at 11 p.m. Eastern, prepare to have your mind blown. An SI Swimsuit sizzle reel will be beamed onto the hotel's facade, which will—thanks to the magic of projection mapping—be animated in 3-D. If you're not in Las Vegas, the event will be streamed live at SI.com/swimprojection, as well as people.com, ew.com and the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit YouTube channel.
- SI Swimsuit on Location hosted by MARQUEE Nightclub at The Cosmopolitan, Las Vegas: The SI Swimsuit launch week event will feature the 2013 Swimsuit models and bring to life all of the beautiful and exotic shoot locations from the 2013 SI Swimsuit issue in a marquee and exclusive nightclub setting.

The Sports Illustrated Swimsuit (www.SI.com/swimsuit) franchise reaches more than 62 million people annually, and more men 18 to 34 than the Super Bowl. The iconic franchise now spans more than 20 product extensions in digital social, broadcast, publishing, mobile and consumer products, along with supporting a vibrant experiential marketing business. Since debuting in 1964 Swimsuit has become a pop-culture phenomenon and an established launching pad for successful careers in TV, fashion, business and film including those of Kathy Ireland, Cheryl Tiegs, Tyra Banks and Heidi Klum. All of Swimsuit's product extensions are built upon a heritage of amazing photography and footage of gorgeous models and athletes from the most exotic locations in the world.

This is a Spring Airsoft Pistol, which means it's powered by a spring and must be cocked for each shot. It's fast, clean, inexpensive and easily maintained; it requires no gas or batteries to operate. Also, Spring Airsoft Guns are the toughest, most durable of all Airsoft Guns, because they're made with few breakable pieces. If you're looking for a fun, reliable Airsoft Pistol that'll look great and perform even better, you've come to the right place. You must be 18 years of age or older to purchase this Airsoft gun.
Electric Airsoft Rifles use batteries as their power source and they shoot very fast. Some Electric Airsoft Rifles come with semi-automatic fire. That means that when you pull the trigger only 1 BB will come out at a time. Other Electric Airsoft Rifles come with full-automatic fire. This means that when you pull the trigger multiple BBs will come out at a time. The longer you hold the trigger down the more BBs come out. Check the description above to see which kind of gun this is and if it is right for you. Electric Airsoft Rifles don't require any pumping or cocking, just simply point and shoot. This is a High End Electric Airsoft Gun. Please only use .20 gram high quality BBs with this item in order to keep it in proper working order. Using anything else as ammunition for this gun will void the warranty and may cause it to jam. Also, to keep your Electric Airsoft Gun working properly, do not fire the gun when there are no BBs in it as it may cause damage to your gun. You must be 18 years of age or older to purchase this Airsoft gun.

By: Peyton 02-17-2013
This gun is awfull! right when i got it it wouldnt shoot! and for some reason it would only shoot upside down!
By: Daniel 08-09-2012
great guns. i've had mine for about 2 years now and its working great. the pistol is very reliable in a tight situation. the M4's best feature would have to be the clip. with the clip you can just turn the gear at the bottom of it and it will reload unlike having to waste time taking out the clip and putting in a new one.the scope on this gun is personally my favorite, it's extremely reliable and accurate just like the guns. i have actually recomended this gun to a lot of people and the next game i saw them with it. i always talk about hobbytron while talk about video games or brag on the guns fps or something. But over all a great great gun.
By: E-man 06-14-2012
oh yeah i would recommend upgrading it internal like the gear box and internal barrel.
By: E-man 05-12-2012
this is a good except you need to adjust thehopup and let it dry fire for 5 minutes and after a year or so the clip will go bust on you. so its a great for newbies.

Domino's pizzas ordered on the go
Relevant offers
Financial Results
An increasing number of Kiwis and Australians are using their mobile phones to order a pizza, according to the latest financial results from Domino's Pizza.
The pizza company reported a half-year net profit of A$14.5 million ($17.8 million), up almost 16 per cent year-on-year, thanks to strong performances from its pizza stores in New Zealand and Australia.
Domino's said it was growing its online presence and digital platforms, with over half of all online orders now being placed through mobile devices in New Zealand and Australia.
The ASX-listed Domino's has 570 stores in New Zealand and Australia, and a further 364 in France, Belgium and the Netherlands. Most are run by franchisees.
Revenue rose more than six per cent to A$140.8m. Same-store sales growth weighed in at 1.5 per cent. Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation rose 15.5 per cent to A$26.5m.
Chief executive Don Meij said its focus on improving quality, service and the image of its products and stores in New Zealand and Australia, including the refurbishment of 18 stores, during the half-year had paid off.
The company opened 31 new stores in the first-half and plans to open a further 50-odd this financial year. It will launch new products here and across the Tasman next month.
Domino's Pizza New Zealand reported a net profit of $245,000 for the year ended July 1 2012, down 11.6 per cent year on year, according to Companies Office records.
Revenue rose 64 per cent to $5.7m, but the company faced an increase in expenses, including store-related expenses which more than doubled to about $974,000.

Subset but culturally different, in large part due to the fee structure of both industries (allegedly) and the people involved (more likely) and the regulation that hamstrings AM at times.
To overgeneralize, at a large institutional top-tier AM house, there is going to be a lot more soft client work since performance fees are not allowed for certain types of clients whose money they chase. You'll notice the client side of the business is far more developed and they have to advertise new flavor-of-the-month products more and "research pieces" to give a glimpse of what's under the hood without saying a thing is important.
Because of fees, winning a lot of $1B mandates at anywhere from 10-50bps p.a. (sub-30 bps happens, the horror!) becomes the goal so the client side has to work harder. That, coupled with regulation, and the inability to lock-up capital for egregious periods of time or use gates unless you are realistically running a RE focused fund, and the possibility of inflows and outflows if you play the mutual fund game, makes investing in anything illiquid/esoteric rather difficult. Scalability is a huge concern if your strategy takes off; most HF strategies honestly stop working well after $5B, and $5B in traditional AM fee structure is a joke so those won't be pursued either. Strategies like: capital structure arbitrage, statistical arbitrage, distressed debt, event-driven stuff, or anything involving leverage in excess of 3:1 is generally not going to be seen. Asset-gathering at the biggest houses (unfortunately in my opinion) becomes part of management's focus because it's the only way they profit more.
Hedge funds have popularized the notion that only they know how to short things, even though being underweight something relative to a long-only benchmark is pretty much shorting it conceptually. What actually determines a lot of your short-side alpha if you aren't one of those guys running a hilarious 10-name concentrated portfolio with zero turnover is your prime broker killing you for fees or not; it is incredibly difficult to make an argument that some no-name $100MM POS equity l/s hedge fund will get better prime broker fees than some place like a BlackRock or Wellington running an equity l/s fund. You will see a few equity long/short guys at top-tier AM houses hidden away quietly, and these guys launch their own cayman funds for people who believe the manager can make real money.
The biggest joke ever invented was benching yourself to cash and charging a performance fee over it even if the return and risk profile of your fund does not match it at all in any conceivable notion. Thus it becomes very possible to have a 30 person outfit running $3B in a 2 and 20 structure; you will notice the headcount:AUM ratio across AM versus HF will be drastically different for this reason.
Additionally, HF features a lot of ex-prop traders, and certain styles have a lot of ex-banking guys. AM not so much. Accordingly, culture will be very different than a AM lifer where the setting is a little more snootily intellectual at times and more laid back. The pressure of living/dying by your PnL is reduced when you are clipping 20 bps on average off of a huge capital base as opposed to a 2 and 20 structure off of a puny capital base.
Hope this helped

Not knocking these guys BlackHat--it's just alien to me because the normal rules don't seem to apply. I understand the merits of investing in a small basket of companies that you feel like you have a true fundamental understanding of and feel are misvalued for whatever reason. It does eliminate a lot of the execution issues of larger funds.
However, it's very hard for a 10-name portfolio to not be significantly tilted towards a traditional factor or sector--to what extent are you making an actual fundamental call or an implicitly deeper bet? If you were forced to have more size, would you simply scale up your positions pro rata until liquidity becomes a concern? Or would you be forced to do more research on more names? How much of your returns are your thesis being correct or you just simply being stubborn and riding a deeper trend that has nothing to do with firm-specific risk?
If we distilled down your style to a set of rules that captured the return and risk profile of your strategy it in a systematic manner, would it still demonstrate outperformance?
It'd be really nice to be an Eddie Lampert or David Einhorn and to some extent your positions become partially self-fulfilling based on how the rest of the market reacts to you taking a position in a name.

Synthetic Shit, Good Shit. Couldn't have said it better. As with both HF's and AM, Flows follow Performance; I would say this is more of the case with HF's (especially on a relative basis to AUM). There is more pressure in the air, generally, to perform because if you have a poor year(or blow up), you are done and are out of a job..
Fear is the greatest motivator. Motivation is what it takes to find profit.

Just to touch on this further: BlackRock, the largest asset manager, has primarily most of its funds in "funds" that invest in very liquid securities so clients can pull out very easily if necessary. However, it always has and actually is continuing to build its internal hedge fund/private equity offerings that invest in less liquid/longer duration opportunities with lockups.
asset management could be considered the highway, and a hedge fund could be considered the route that you choose to take upon entering the highway

The proliferation of digital channels opens up new opportunities for businesses that want to deepen relationships with existing clients and attract new customers. Social media platforms and the widespread use of mobile devices provide an affordable way to push out a steady stream of content to always-connected consumers and generate new business. However, many companies that are making the change from print-centric communication to digital content are finding that the transition isn't simple. The processes that are in place for creating, approving, publishing, distributing and tracking print-centric content don't scale when faced with omni-channel digital content.

Twill Shirt - Short Sleeve (For Plus Size Women)
2nds. A great deal on a classic twill shirt, durable as can be and cut for a roomier fit.
Average Rating based on 7 reviews 4.142857 0 5
Reviewed by northcountryfair from Alaska on Monday, August 12, 2013This shirt is well-made, but sized funny. The arms are a weird fit: way too tight in the shoulders.
I bought this at a high discount so will not return but instead give it to my sister or friend.
Reviewed by Pam from Memphis on Tuesday, June 18, 2013The quality of this shirt is great but it runs very small. I normally wear a 2X and bought this larger shirt (3X) to wear over other shirts, I was not able to get it on just by itself. I would put its size more at a XL or 1X.
Reviewed by geoprof from CA on Tuesday, June 4, 2013I have been searching for such a shirt for ages! Love the tough twill fabric, but especially the LACK of a chest pocket, which I hate on women's shirts but are all too common on a casual sport shirt.
Reviewed by Diane from Illinois on Monday, May 27, 2013This shirt is of nice quality--heavier than what I was expecting. Looks nice.
Reviewed by Orchard slave from Montana on Saturday, May 4, 2013This makes a great work shirt. Wonderful heavy fabric that washed up nice and will wear well for a long time.

Amelle Berrabah Warns the Danger of Booze
British singer Amelle Berrabah is warning fans of the dangers of driving the morning after a party - after she was arrested for DUI last month. The Sugababes star was traveling to see her personal trainer the day after a boozy night out when she was pulled over by cops and breathalyzed.
She was charged with driving under the influence of alcohol, but Berrabah insists she didn't know there was a possibility she could be over the legal limit because she had been asleep for six hours. Berrabah tells Britain's Heat magazine, "When I got stopped, I was shocked. I couldn't believe it had happened. I was really ashamed of myself. I just had no idea I would still have alcohol in my system. I didn't know it was possible six hours later."
"The fact that you can still be over the legal limit several hours later should be better known to people. People need to be more aware that there's still a risk. I didn't know it could happen and I was caught out. I would never have driven if I'd known."
"I just feel I've let a lot of people down, and I've let myself down. I made a genuine mistake and people make mistakes every day. I put my hands up, but I just want to move on from it as quickly as possible."
The singer is due to appear at London's Highbury Corner Magistrates' Court on October 8.

Title: Skin care uses of sunflower seed oil
Answered by: Nan Hampton
QUESTION:Just wondering what, if any, were the traditional uses of sunflower in skincare? I thought I read somewhere that the seeds were crushed up into an oil and used on the skin for sun protection? Is there anything out there that corroborates this? Please advise. Many thanks.
I haven't been able to find any reference (in print or over the internet) to sun protection for the sunflower, but I have found several references to other uses on the skin and hair. The seeds of the Common sunflower (Helianthus annuus) were crushed and the oil used for a dressing for the hair. The University of Michigan-Dearborn Native American Ethnobotany database lists several skin-related uses for H. annuus:
"Oil from seeds used 'to lubricate or paint the face or body'"-Mandan Indian;
"Juice applied to cuts"-Jemez Indians; and
"Petals dried, ground, mixed with yellow corn meal and used as a face powder in women's basket dance"-Hopi Indians.
For the Sawtooth sunflower (Helianthus grossesserratus), a "Poultice of blossoms used for burns"-Meskwaki Indians.
The National Sunflower Association says the oil of the seed was used by Native Americans on their skin and hair, but nothing about sun protection. You might contact them to see if they know of other references for traditional uses of the plant and its seeds.

Over at Generation Bubble I have a review of a business book called What's Mine Is Yours, about what the authors dub collaborative consumption. What they mean by that is things like car-sharing services and Freecycle—basically ways to use the internet to facilitate peer-to-peer exchange. In part because it was a book geared toward management types, it rubbed me the wrong way, and I ended up at a very skeptical place about the whole idea. I don't think it's a terrible thing to give away your stuff through Freecycle or to use a bike-sharing service, but these are not necessarily things to be particularly proud of either. Ideally these practices would disappear into the fabric of everyday life rather than constitute a "revolution" in retail that entrepreneurs and investors need to bandwagon into ubiquity and that consumers need to trumpet as triumphant proof of their evolution into post-individualist subjects. It just doesn't seem a good idea to have a subjectivity or to form communities that are anchored in shopping practices.

Outgoing Aoraki Secondary School Sports regional director Bob Pringle believes his successor must receive more support if the role is going to continue to be successful.
The 63-year-old had his last day in the job yesterday.
He said whoever succeeded him needed to have a part-time office assistant to take some of the administrative load in what can be an "isolating" job at times.
Pringle said he had raised $5000, which he believed would be half the money required to get someone on a part-time basis.
"I'm passionate about sport, I'm a self-confessed sportaholic, and when I first took the job, I thought I was perfect for it.
"It would be good to get some extra support and assistance for some of the office duties, which would have helped me get out-and-about more."
After five years in the position, Pringle is now looking forward to semi-retirement working the land at his Orari home.
It's certain to be a more relaxed way of life for the man who has been at the coalface of one of the busiest and largest secondary school sports regions in the country.
With the role encompassing Mid Canterbury, South Canterbury and North Otago, the former secondary school teacher said he would leave satisfied with the impact he had made.
"The best thing about this job has been being able to see our young sportspeople perform and achieve on the local, regional, national and, for some, the international stage."
After 30 years as a teacher in Wairarapa, he found his way to South Canterbury and into a role he thought suited him, but soon found the workload challenging.
"'When I first arrived [in the job] I was overwhelmed. But you learn to adapt."
During his time as regional director, the Aoraki region has had one of the highest participation rates for secondary school pupils in sport.
It is not known when a replacement will be named.

PHILADELPHIA — A concussion-related lawsuit bringing together scores of cases has been filed in federal court, accusing the NFL of hiding information that linked football-related head trauma to permanent brain injuries.
Lawyers for former players say more than 80 pending lawsuits are consolidated in the "master complaint" filed Thursday in Philadelphia.
Plaintiffs hope to hold the NFL responsible for the care of players suffering from dementia, Alzheimer's disease and other neurological conditions. Other former players remain asymptomatic, but worry about the future and want medical monitoring. The helmet-maker Riddell, Inc. also is named as a defendant.
"I want this game to be around, to be a great sport, a sport that my own boys will be able to play and enjoy all the benefits I believe that football has," said former Eagles and Patriots running back Kevin Turner, now suffering from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
"Let's face it and be honest, I feel like the NFL has over the past decades — at least until '08 or '09 — kind of turned a blind eye to the seriousness of not only concussions ... but the cumulative effect of (hits) and how these retired players are having so much difficulty in getting along in their daily lives."
The suit accuses the NFL of "mythologizing" and glorifying violence through the media, including its NFL Films division.
"The NFL, like the sport of boxing, was aware of the health risks associated with repetitive blows producing sub-concussive and concussive results and the fact that some members of the NFL player population were at significant risk of developing long-term brain damage and cognitive decline as a result," the complaint charges.
"Despite its knowledge and controlling role in governing player conduct on and off the field, the NFL turned a blind eye to the risk and failed to warn and/or impose safety regulations governing this well-recognized health and safety problem."
The league has denied similar accusations in the past.
"Our legal team will review today's filing that is intended to consolidate plaintiffs' existing claims into one 'master' complaint," the NFL said in a statement. "The NFL has long made player safety a priority and continues to do so. Any allegation that the NFL sought to mislead players has no merit. It stands in contrast to the league's many actions to better protect players and advance the science and medical understanding of the management and treatment of concussions."
The NFL provides a series of medical benefits to former NFL players to help them after football, including joint replacement, neurological evaluations and spine treatment programs, assisted living partnerships, long-term care insurance, prescription benefits, life insurance programs, and a Medicare supplement program.
One of the programs, the 88 Plan, named after Hall of Fame tight end John Mackey, provides funding to treat dementia, Alzheimer's disease, and ALS. Players do not need to demonstrate that the condition was caused by their participation in the NFL.
The league says that in partnership with the NFLPA it has spent more than a billion dollars on pensions, medical and disability benefits for retired players.
Mary Ann Easterling will remain a plaintiff despite the April suicide of her husband, former Atlanta Falcons safety Ray Easterling, who had been a named plaintiff in a suit filed last year.
Easterling, 62, suffered from undiagnosed dementia for many years that left him angry and volatile, his widow said. He acted out of character, behaving oddly at family parties and making risky business decisions that eventually cost them their home. They were married 36 years and had one daughter. She believes the NFL has no idea what families go through.
