Written by Jen Finn
Sunday, July 29, 2007 — It was true — Derrick had gone missing. We sent a couple guys out to look for him, and at the same time we alerted the park ranger, which isn't a bad thing to do when missing somebody in a bear-infested national park.
We hadn't waited too long before we heard Derrick had been located; he was in the custody of the park rangers. He hadn't been eaten by a bear, thank goodness (I guess), but apparently he was observed by a biologist — who a perched in a fir tree observing bears in their natural environment — wielding a large knife as he chased a bear through a stream. Derrick must have been bored with the ride, so he ventured out and violated every rule they taught us in bear school.
As Derrick was processed through the National Park Enforcement Department, we drifted around in Mike's skiff and barbecued a few sockeye salmon we had caught right there on the spot. Derrick was still locked in the interrogation room after we finished our snack. There was an air of mystery surrounding his questioning, but we needed to head back to King Salmon before we were navigating the shallows of Naknek Lake in the dark.
After waiting a full two hours, the rangers finally released their prisoner. When Derrick was safely aboard the skiff, he told us his story. According to Derrick, as we were waiting for the unseen bears to clear the trial, he went off the trail — just to take a piss. He caught sight of the bear and brandished his knife. The bear turned tail and ran, but as the self-designated protector of the group, he chased the beast, selflessly defending the rest, stopping at nothing to be sure the bear would not threaten the others.
The bear escaped before he could kill it, but Derrick was intercepted by the rangers before he made it back to the trail. He couldn't believe they gave him a fine instead of a medal. He got off easy, as far as I can tell; perhaps that fifth of whiskey brought him a cheery disposition that earned leniency from the park rangers.
The National Fish and Wildlife Foundation announced last week the sixth round of grant awards from its Fisheries Innovation Fund, a program launched in 2010 to foster innovations that support sustainable fisheries in the United States.
The goal of the Fisheries Innovation Fund is to sustain fishermen and fishing communities while simultaneously rebuilding fish stocks.Read more...

Better Business
Business owners in a central Wellington street are taking on taggers with graffiti art, hoping respect will work where constant cleaning has failed.
It could be the first step towards turning Bond St into a green inner-city haven, rather than a run-down back street.
Wellington graffiti artist DRYPNZ has been commissioned to paint a mural in an alley running off Bond St, often targeted by taggers.
The as yet unfinished work will cost about $5000.
Roy McFarlane, owner of The Canteen cafe, said his landlord was constantly cleaning graffiti off the wall.
"I know it's about individual expression, but as a small business owner, it's hard to see how it's contributing to society. It costs an awful lot to fix."
It was hoped that DRYPNZ's work would be left alone by taggers, he said.
"I understand that he's got a lot of respect among the community, and that's kind of how it works."
Mr McFarlane said he and other businesses, including Mojo Coffee, hoped Wellington City Council would back stalled plans to beautify Bond St with planting, paving and boulevard seating.
Wellington City councillor Helene Ritchie said it was time to move forward with the project, especially with car access through to Willis St now blocked off.
Bond St, originally Old Custom House St, was so named because the first customs store for bonded goods was sited there.
"It could be an elegant little lane. At the moment it's an ugly little lane," Ms Ritchie said.
It costs the council about $400,000 a year to remove graffiti.

You could put it down to the peptic overstatement of an exasperated man.
OPINION: Or to all those dead babies. Between 55 and 60 of them each year, dead by morning in their parents' beds.
Either way, Coroner Wallace Bain's call for a law change to make parents who sleep with babies open to child abuse prosecutions is likely to be met by that familiar and emphatic message that, no, the real solution here is better education.
Trouble is, the case in front of Dr Bain was one where the parents had received education. None too daintily either, from the sound of it.
The message was that in light of their history of smoking and cannabis use, the risk was they might smother their baby. The midwife believed they had accepted the message. It turns out that any agreements she received were empty ones.
Let's be clear that prosecutions after the event would achieve nothing other than punishment. They are highly unlikely to act as much of a deterrent.
What would the message then become? If your baby dies from this you'll be in trouble? It would be a horror of a human being who would need to get to the end of that sentence to find motivation.
No, in cases like this, "education" means actually convincing, which is a far more difficult task than merely presenting the agreed information with an instructive tone.
It's interesting that Chief Coroner Judge Neil MacLean has acknowledged some midwives and breast-feeding advocates see coroners going on about the dangers of co-sleeping as the insensitive scoldings of elderly while males; and what would they know about it?
For his part Judge MacLean also acknowledged - and this before Dr Bain's latest finding - that: "It's arguable that some coroners have laid it on a bit thick by talking about mothers killing babies . . . which is counter-productive."
At least we should bear in mind that for parents who are unpersuaded by bottom-line message that their babies can be brought into bed for comforting or feeding, but should sleep in a cot, next to the bed, there is a potential Plan B.
It comprises pepi-pods or wahakura. The pods are portable beds, designed to provide a safe sleeping space for babies at high risk of accidental suffocation; not just an adult's bed, but perhaps a couch or makeshift situation. Post-quake Canterbury needed plenty of them.
Wahakura essentially perform the same role. They are woven flax baskets, properly dried and fitted with special mattresses and merino wool lining.
And before the rest of us take too censorious a line with parents who bring children into their beds, we should bear in mind some of the living conditions out there. Consider the death of a 4-month-old baby girl in Ruatoki, who was taken into the bed for warmth. She died in a small weatherboard house, not waterproof, with several broken and boarded-over windows.
It was cold and draughty, particularly the uncarpeted and freezing bedroom, so the family was in the lounge. The couch was given up to a three-year-old child and the baby, wrapped in a blanket, was with the mother and father on a foam mattress on the lounge floor.
That was in 2011. The inquest into her death, incidentally, was held by Dr Bain. And by then he was already using words like "yet another tragic death . . ."
So give him this, he hasn't exactly stampeded to his call for prosecutions.

Excellent 4.1 /5 from 206 reviews
Very comfortable and CLEAN room. Great housekeeping staff. Temp outside 106 very comfortable inside room constant 68 degrees. Most comfortable beds!!!
had a great stay at this hotel.
The hotel cleanliness and staff friendliness were great, but that was about all. No refrigerator / microwave in the room and the fact they charge for things like a continental breakfast and basic internet means Mariott is now at the bottom of my list of hotels to stay in when travelling
Very comfortable but quick stay
I have stayed at this property several times, and have never been disappointed! Very accommodating. I had a couple of special requests, for our room. They were in the room, ready when we arrived.

Custom Building a Maulerfiend WIP
After cleaning all the various parts I took out my Dremel and cut off the front to arm holders on the body and then opened out the hole to fit the two Maulerfiend arms in. With this done it was then on to gluing all the legs and arms in to place, as can be seen in the picture below.
A couple of other things I have learnt through the process so far - the Dremel multi-tool is an awesome bit of kit which saves a lot of time trying to cut through bits of the model. The second is more of a warning to all those using any tool to trim little bits off their models - wear glasses of some sort because if one of those little bits flies off in to your eye it could cause some pain/damage. It has never happened to me before but, if my wife hadn't been around to fish it out for me, it would've been quite painful trying to blink that out of my eye.
Enjoy yourselves folks and I'll be back with one or two more updates during the week!

On a non-GAAP basis, total revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2014 was $254.0 million, up 3%, and software revenue was $84.0 million, down 2%. Subscription revenue within software revenue more than doubled to $7.5 million from last year and is adjusted by $1.7 million for the acquisition-related accounting effects on deferred revenue. Non-GAAP operating income for the second quarter of fiscal 2014 was $38.7 million, resulting in a non-GAAP operating margin of 15.2% compared to $45.3 million, or a margin of 18.4% in the second quarter of fiscal 2013. Net income was $23.0 million or $0.14 per diluted share, compared with $29.7 million or $0.18 per diluted share. Net income assumes non-GAAP effective tax rates of 32% and 26% for the second quarters of fiscal 2014 and 2013, respectively. Non-GAAP results are adjusted for acquisition-related accounting effects on deferred revenue from acquisitions and exclude amortization of acquired tangible assets, stock-based compensation expense, acquisition and other related expenses, restructuring activities and non-cash interest expense related to convertible debt.
"Although we achieved record second quarter revenue, our results fell short of our expectations and we are aggressively focusing on making strategic, operational and organizational changes to address our execution challenges and position TIBCO for sustained growth," said Vivek Ranadivé, TIBCO's chairman and chief executive officer. "We see a large and growing opportunity ahead of us in big data, where our technologies can integrate both static and real-time data sources to enable fast data solutions. These are systems that companies use to create more responsive and customized digital experiences for their customers, fostering greater loyalty and unlocking new avenues for revenue generation."
Second Quarter Fiscal 2014 Highlights
- Total Non-GAAP revenue of $254.0 million;
- Non-GAAP Software revenue of $84.0 million; comprised of license revenue of $76.5 million; and subscription revenue of $7.5 million;

During the second quarter of 2014, TIBCO adopted a revised presentation, which TIBCO believes better reflects the company's evolving product and service offerings and increases the visibility of emerging consumption models. A change was made to rename license revenue to software revenue and to present license revenue and subscription revenue as software revenue. A corresponding change was made to present cost of license revenue as cost of software revenue and to present cost of license revenue and cost of subscription revenue as cost of software revenue. This change in presentation does not affect total revenue, total cost of revenue or gross margin. Conforming changes have been made for all prior periods presented.

About Non-GAAP Financial Information
TIBCO provides non-GAAP measures for revenue, operating income, net income and net income per share data as supplemental information regarding TIBCO's business performance. TIBCO believes that providing the non-GAAP measures that management uses to its investors is useful to investors for a number of reasons. The non-GAAP measures provide a consistent basis for investors to understand TIBCO's financial performance on a trended basis across historical periods. In addition, it allows investors to evaluate TIBCO's performance using the same methodology and information as used by TIBCO's management. TIBCO's management excludes these non-operating charges when it internally evaluates the performance of TIBCO's business and makes operating decisions, including internal budgeting, performance measurement and the calculation of bonuses and discretionary compensation, because these measures provide a consistent method of comparison to historical periods. Moreover, management believes these non-GAAP measures reflect the essential revenue generation activities of TIBCO. Accordingly, management excludes from revenue the acquisition-related accounting adjustment to deferred revenue assumed in business combinations and excludes stock-based compensation related to employee stock options, amortization of acquired intangible assets, costs related to formal restructuring activities, acquisition-related and other expenses, non-cash interest expense related to convertible debt, as well as the income tax effects of the foregoing.
Non-GAAP measures are subject to material limitations as these measures are not in accordance with, or a substitute for GAAP and thus TIBCO's definition may be different from similar non-GAAP measures used by other companies or analysts. Management compensates for these limitations by evaluating the non-GAAP measure together with the most directly comparable GAAP measure.
The non-GAAP adjustments, and the basis for excluding them, are outlined below:
Acquisition-related Revenue Adjustment
Business combination accounting rules require TIBCO to reduce the deferred revenue assumed in a business combination to the fair value of the future obligations from subscription and maintenance contracts assumed. As such, GAAP revenue subsequent to an acquisition of a business does not reflect the full amount of revenue of these assumed subscription and maintenance contracts that would have otherwise been recorded had the acquisition not occurred. This non-GAAP adjustment is intended to include, and thus reflect, the full amount of such revenue. Management includes this item, for the purposes of calculating non-GAAP revenue, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share. TIBCO's management believes this adjustment to revenue is useful to investors as a measure of ongoing performance of its business because although it does not control if customers renew their subscription or maintenance contracts TIBCO has historically experienced high renewal rates on subscription and maintenance contracts.
Amortization of Intangible Assets
TIBCO incurs amortization expense from intangible assets, related to acquisitions TIBCO has made in the past. Management excludes these items, for the purposes of calculating non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share. The amortization of intangible assets can be inconsistent in amount and frequency and is significantly impacted by the timing and magnitude of TIBCO's acquisition transactions, which also vary substantially in frequency from period to period.
Stock-based Compensation
TIBCO incurs stock-based compensation expense. TIBCO excludes this item for the purposes of calculating non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share because it is a non-cash expense that can be inconsistent in amount from period to period. The stock-based compensation expense can be significantly impacted by the type of compensation instrument, the vesting conditions and judgment used to assess if these conditions will be met in the future. Finally, TIBCO believes that non-GAAP measures of profitability that exclude stock-based compensation are widely used by analysts and investors in the software industry.
Acquisition-related and Other Expenses
TIBCO incurs acquisition-related and other expenses which consist of costs incurred after the issuance of a definitive term sheet for a particular transaction (whether or not such transaction is ultimately completed, remains in process or is not completed) and include legal, banker, accounting and other advisory fees of third parties and severance costs for employees of the acquired company that are terminated within 90 days of the acquisition date. Management excludes these items, for the purposes of calculating non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share. TIBCO generally would not have otherwise incurred such expenses in the periods presented as part of its continuing operations. The acquisition-related and other expenses are not recurring with respect to past transactions, can be inconsistent in amount and frequency from period to period and are significantly impacted by the timing and magnitude of TIBCO's acquisitions. While these expenses are not recurring with respect to past transactions, TIBCO generally will incur these expenses in connection with any future acquisitions.
Non-Cash Interest Expense Related to Convertible Debt
TIBCO is required to recognize non-cash interest expense related to its 2.25% convertible senior notes issued in April 2012 as an imputed interest expense. Management excludes this incremental non-cash interest expense for purposes of calculating non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share. Under the relevant accounting guidance, TIBCO is required to separate the conversion option as an equity component from the debt and account for the debt in a manner that reflects TIBCO's non-convertible debt borrowing rate. This results in the debt component of the convertible notes being treated as though it was issued at a discount, with the debt discount being accreted as additional non-cash interest expense over the term of the notes using the effective interest method. TIBCO excludes this expense from its non-GAAP measures, because this incremental interest expense does not represent a cash outflow for the company and is not meaningful in evaluating current versus past business results. Finally, TIBCO believes that non-GAAP measures of profitability that exclude non-cash interest accretion expense are widely used by analysts and investors.
Restructuring Activities
TIBCO incurs restructuring expenses, included in its GAAP presentation of operating expense, primarily due to workforce related charges such as payments for severance and benefits and estimated costs of exiting and terminating facility lease commitments related to a formal restructuring plan. TIBCO excludes these items, for the purposes of calculating non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share, when it evaluates the continuing business performance of TIBCO. TIBCO believes that these items are not consistently recurring and do not necessarily reflect expected future operating expense, nor does TIBCO believe that they provide a meaningful evaluation of current versus past business results or the expense levels required to support TIBCO's operating plan.

In addition to all the benefits, IoT is also bringing new kind of customer experience challenges - cars that unlock themselves, thermostats turning houses into saunas and baby video monitors broadcasting over the internet. This list can only increase because while IoT services should be intuitive and simple to use, the delivery ecosystem is a myriad of potential problems as IoT explodes complexity. So finding a performance issue is like finding the proverbial needle in the haystack.

Certainly the fog layer of IoT requires special insights about data ontology, security and transactional integrity. But the developmental challenges are the same: People, Process and Platform. In his session at @ThingsExpo, Craig Sproule, CEO of Metavine, demonstrated how to move beyond today's coding paradigm and shared the must-have mindsets for removing complexity from the develo...

Large scale deployments present unique planning challenges, system commissioning hurdles between IT and OT and demand careful system hand-off orchestration. In his session at @ThingsExpo, Jeff Smith, Senior Director and a founding member of Incenergy, will discuss some of the key tactics to ensure delivery success based on his experience of the last two years deploying Industrial IoT systems across four continents.

Yeah. I got her, but I didn't notice any seam lines. No painting problems on mine either. The only thing I noticed was that there were tiny rough areas on her arm and a little on her feet, but for the most part, it's nothing that's a big deal. I think she's perfect. :3
I guess I'm not as anal about smaller figures. Can't do anything about small machine made defects.

Received my Hayate Yagami, and was disappointed for some seam lines on her, and some painting problems, her skins have some blue color near the bikini.

Finally getting her. SAL shipping takes about 2 weeks so I'll be nice and patient. :3

I was originally gonna just buy just Mizuki Himeji's wave figure, but I saw this one, and I couldn't resist it. Impulse buy? Yes! But impulse buys are sometimes the best.
I wonder how much she would've cost if she was 1/8 scale instead.

My family would really love to go to Bonaire based on the snorkeling and diving they have to offer. However, I am more of a person who like some night life. I don't need a lot and it doesn't have to be glitzy. I also like a nice resort with good restaurants. Any suggestions.

Just came back in June from Bonaire, stayed at the Plaza -- spectacular!! E-mail me direct and we can talk!! Also, check out "www.infobonaire.com/newsgroup", they can direct you to nightlife although I don't think there's a lot but I bet the locals on that newsgroup can help. I'd love to tell you more, you will not be disappointed with the diving/snorkeling and I can recommend some great places to eat. I also have a few pictures I can send you of Pink Beach and an underwater one too.
Report Abuse
We also stayed at the Plaza and it was very nice. We checked out all the other properties except Harbor Village and the Plaza was by far the nicest and had the nicest beach. The food was terrible when we were there. They had a problem either overcooking or undercooking things and the breakfast buffet on Sunday was canned fruit and lunch meat.
Report Abuse
We stayed at the Plaza and found everything to our liking. The snorkeling from the beautiful beach was superb. Everyone at the hotel was friendly and helpful. If you're looking for a restaurant go to Richard's. This fine restaurant is right outside the second entrance to the Plaza.

First trip to Wichita. Selected this location because of it's proximity to my customer. VERY close to highway but heard NO highway noise. My room was clean, comfortable and the temperature easily regulated. The bed was comfortable and clean.
The front desk staff made me feel welcome and made great recommendations for local dining.
The breakfast was standard for Hampton. Plenty of well lit parking. Felt safe in the area when coming and going.

So true McChud. But he does have the middle finger; I guess taking the index finger is just government expansion.

Stck yr thmb n cnt!
Many readers don't know the reference for that comment and found it offensive.
Hubert Cumberdale?
I guess finger puppets were the next step, since the candidates themselves have produced their own sock puppets.
I wonder if the debates are going to be tag team? Obama answers first half of a question, TAG, Michelle does a stone cold stunner on McCain.
With Finger puppets all things are possible.
Are people under the impression that Michelle Obama is running for vice president? WTF? It's not just these finger puppets, but I've seen several things online – including news articles from mainstream sources – that compare/contrast these four people instead of the four that are actually running.
@7 3½ including Palin.
Something about that picture just makes my skin crawl for some reason.
I am temporarily disturbed.
Well, it's the first couples — that's Cindy McCain, not Sarah Palin, to John McCain's right. Or "on his left hand."
meh. they needs more polygons…
need new puppets. When McCain finishes dying of cancer, Palin will be eliminated as a ideal "martyr". Who is third in line?
I think Cindy actually looks more lifelike this way.
If only these were made of soft, washable silicone…
Vote on the best, or write in your own candidate:
1. If your fingers are debating one another, you might have more serious problems than this country right now (which is saying something.)
2. I didn't know McCain was running for Fonzie.
3. Where are the Palin – Biden puppets? (Oh yeah, they're the real ones.)
4. Why should they have all the fun giving us the finger?
hmm,soft washable silicone… definite business opportunity there. Get a decent sculptor to do the primary molds (art school near freeby), web market the product… get a little free advertising by scandalizing with free samples to the right people… oh, and get around the high cost of medical grade silicone by buying batches of non-certified med-grade silicone. Yeah, let me know when the IPO hits.
I protest. McCain has two digits while Obama only has one. I know Big John's a fatcat, but do they have to rub it in?
McCain is thicker, but Obama has a really big head.

"Hey, wait a minute, there's one guy holding out both puppets!" "Shut up! Go back to bed, America. Your government is in control. Here's Love Connection. Watch this and get fat and stupid. By the way, keep drinking beer, you fucking morons."
Yeah, they're Punch and Judy, and Judy's been getting whacked on pretty non-stop for the past 8 years.
Nasty Antinous! giggle!
I wonder why first lady outfits all look kinda mother of the bride-like. Much as Michelle has a very Jacky O look. They seem like bridal party looks to me.
Your fake debates will be just as fake as real debates!
Depends on whether McCain wears the radio transmitter to Rove that bushie wore, in true puppetry style.
There's a Miss Hillary one too, and T-shirts:

Why Does Rand Paul Want to Imprison Edward Snowden?by Will Grigg

IRS Launches Investigation Of Clinton Foundation
WATCH: Man In Dress Set Ablaze Trying to Stomp Burning Flag Outside DNC
Julian Assange Promises "A Lot More Material" Coming on US Election
Desperate Media Accuses Trump of "Treason" For Joke About Hillary's Deleted Emails
Republican Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky has announced his intention to file a class action lawsuit against the National Security Agency over its illegal eavesdropping program. An earlier suit filed by the group Judicial Watch resulted in a temporary injunction from federal district court Judge Richard Leon, who described the program as ōalmost Orwellian.ö A second federal judge, in response to a separate lawsuit filed by the ACLU, issued a ruling that described the totalitarian surveillance program as justified by the need to fight terrorism.
All of these lawsuits have depended heavily on the revelations of former NSA employee Edward Snowden, whose disclosures have laid bare the unconstitutional and criminal misconduct of the agency.Ā Rather than commending Snowden for his principled and patriotic service, Sen. Paul has called for him to be prosecuted and imprisoned.
ōEdward Snowden broke the law,ö Sen.Ā Paul wrote in a letter to the Wall Street Journal. ōThere are penalties for breaking the law, and I believe he should be prosecuted.ö
In effect, Senator Paul is telling Snowden: ōThank you for risking your life to reveal criminal misconduct. IÆll take over and ride this issue to the White House, and you can serve a term in federal prison.ö

Monitor Settings with D100
To all whom have crossed this way before;
Before I get into to the custom cure area, I would like to understand how to calibrate my monitor and printer to display and print what is actually taken by the camera prior to any editing.
How do I do this. I would also like to have my digital images printed by a lab and I am not sure if I edit them they will turn out as I see them on my monitor.
I also use Picasa to manage my photos and they display differently then when I load them into Ulead Photo Impact.
Can someone please help?

There are several recent threads here on exactly this topic if you do a search. You will need some software/hardware such as that made by either ColorVision or Monaco.
And some time to sit down and figure it all out

Actually, what your are asking has very little to do with your D100. One thing that your going to need is a program that can recognize profiles, there are other less expensive programs than Photoshop. It's the only way that you can match your various outputs to your screen. And I do mean, matching your prints to your screen! Please don't take a print and adjust your screen to match the print, it will just cause you wasted time and anguish! But first things first, are your programs "profile aware"?
#3. "RE: Monitor Settings with D100" | In response to Reply # 2Sun 23-Feb-03 11:24 AM
Thanks for your help vis1;
I think so. Ulead Photo Impact has a setting called color management. It allows me to pick a monitor profile and a printer profile. The software offers about 15 monitor profiles and 2 printer profiles. How do I pict the right one?

Hi Mark...See if there is a monitor calibration setting in your software. After that, it's just a matter of which monitor profile and printer profile print closest to what you view on screen. It's not very scientific, but it's a start. You should get close using this method.
#5. "RE: Monitor Settings with D100" | In response to Reply # 4bga123 Nikonian since 04th Dec 2002Tue 25-Feb-03 12:50 AM
Hi while I'm no expert but here are my 2cents from what I've learned. BTW you may want to start by reading the colorspace FAQ. You can find a copy of it at http://www.faqs.org/faqs/graphics/colorspace-faq/
First for your monitor. You can do a rough calibration using Adobe Gamma if you have Photoshop. If you don't own Photoshop you will need to buy a piece of hardware called a colorimeter or use one of the applications that uses your scanner. I used the Colorvision Spyder colorimeter. I attaches to you screen and then steps you through adjusting the intensity of the RGB guns to reach an established ICC profile standard. Remember that the nature of the lighting in your room (incandesent, sunlight etc) will make a difference in what color cast your eye perceives. The Colorvision product will generate a custom profile for your monitor and this is the preferred method as "Standard" profiles don't necessariliy take into account aging phosphors etc. Another product using the same technique is the Monaco Sensor.
- Brian
Now for printer profiling note that it would be better to call it printer/paper profiling because each paper type will require a unique profile. Some printer vendors incorporate support for their own papers into their drivers. For example the Canon i950 has the profiles built into the driver for their own Canon paper.
If your vendor does not supply these unique printer/media profiles you can get one made for you by comapnies like icscolor. Check their web site at http://www.icscolor.com. Hope this helps.

child, and set him by him,
LUK 9:48 And said unto them, Whosoever shall receive this child in my
name receiveth me: and whosoever shall receive me receiveth him that
sent me: for he that is least among you all, the same shall be great.
LUK 9:49 And John answered and said, Master, we saw one casting out
devils in thy name; and we forbad him, because he followeth not with us.
LUK 9:50 And Jesus said unto him, Forbid him not: for he that is not
against us is for us.
LUK 9:51 And it came to pass, when the time was come that he should be
received up, he stedfastly set his face to go to Jerusalem,
LUK 9:52 And sent messengers before his face: and they went, and
no hurt; as the LORD liveth.
SA1 20:22 But if I say thus unto the young man, Behold, the arrows are
beyond thee; go thy way: for the LORD hath sent thee away.
SA1 20:23 And as touching the matter which thou and I have spoken of,
behold, the LORD be between thee and me for ever.
SA1 20:24 So David hid himself in the field: and when the new moon was
come, the king sat him down to eat meat.
SA1 20:25 And the king sat upon his seat, as at other times, even upon
a seat by the wall: and Jonathan arose, and Abner sat by Saul's side,
and David's place was empty.
SA1 20:26 Nevertheless Saul spake not any thing that day: for he
henceforth thou shalt have wars.
CH2 16:10 Then Asa was wroth with the seer, and put him in a prison
house; for he was in a rage with him because of this thing. And Asa
oppressed some of the people the same time.
CH2 16:11 And, behold, the acts of Asa, first and last, lo, they are
written in the book of the kings of Judah and Israel.
CH2 16:12 And Asa in the thirty and ninth year of his reign was
diseased in his feet, until his disease was exceeding great: yet in his
disease he sought not to the LORD, but to the physicians.
CH2 16:13 And Asa slept with his fathers, and died in the one and
fortieth year of his reign.
