Mid-Kentucky Chorus at St. Catharine to perform spring concerts
The Mid-Kentucky Chorus at St. Catharine will be performing a spring concert on April 27 and again on May 4.
The concert, titled "Celebrate the Sacred Song," will take place at St. Catharine Hall on the campus of St. Catharine College and Motherhouse on April 27 at 3 p.m. and at St. Joseph Proto-Cathedral in Bardstown on May 4 at 3 p.m.
The performance will include spirituals, early American hymn tunes and some contemporary Christian works.
A multi-movement work written by Teresa Tedder will debut at the spring concerts. The piece, titled "In Memoriam," is a multi-movement piece based loosely on the Catholic liturgy.
"I wrote one movement four years ago and when I wrote that I knew that eventually I would write the rest of it," Tedder, Director of Mid-Kentucky Arts at St. Catharine and Musician-in-Residence at St. Catharine College, said. "It is to honor three men that were extraordinarily influential in my musical life. They are Terry Ward, who was a professor here; Gene Spragens, a businessman in Lebanon, and my dad, Eugene Carter."
Also joining Mid-Kentucky Chorus will be the Bethlehem High School Liturgical Choir in Bardstown, which will be under the direction of Higo Rodrigues, also an accompanist pianist for Mid-Kentucky Chorus.
Rodrigues said the choir has been rehearsing songs since January in preparation for the concert.
The Bethlehem choir will sing two pieces, "He Never Failed Me," "Chariot," with the Mid-Kentucky Chorus and will also present on piece on their own, "Cantate Hodie."
Other favorites that guests can expect to hear at the spring concert includes "How Great Thou Art," "Amazing Grace," a men's quartet singing "Swing Down Chariot," a women's trio performing "What Wondrous Love is This" and a medley of gospel favorites titled "Old Time Religion."
Two pianists, Higo Rodrigues and Priscilla Dickson, will join Mid-Kentucky Chorus on accompaniment.
Tickets can be reserved by calling Susan Spalding at (859) 336-9232 or Teresa Tedder at (270) 789-9286. Tickets are also available at St. Joseph through the rectory.
Founded in the Dominican tradition in 1931 and sponsored by the Dominican Sisters of Peace, St. Catharine College, a Catholic Dominican college inspired by its founders, welcomes all to the challenging pursuit of truth, preparing them to become critical thinkers, ethical leaders and engaged citizens.

Great sound, very easy setup and has a very modern nice look to it. The Bass is really good as well as mids and highs. I love this product and the price was just right
It was inexpensive. Nice looking and sounds great. The good. I already listed above except I will add set up was easy, hdmi ports work great. Easy, flawless connection with my harmony remote. The bad: No display for volume, no tuner, powers on quickly but hdmi recognition can take up to 2 minutes. No additional RCA inputs, and no sound system settings such as cinema, studio, Dolby, surround etc... Cannot add back speakers. The pictures are deceiving. It is a subwoofer with two speakers that can connect to make a sound bar. It is NOT a four piece unit.
I'm a frustrated audiophile. I love amazing sound systems, but my Lovely Bride cannot tolerate the appearance of speakers, so . . . I'm kinda stuck with "sound bars." That said, for what it is, this unit rocks! When demonstrating it to my wife (I still needed to convince her, since even these tiny-and-elegant speakers are "speakers"), we started a movie with the Panasonic 50" TV's speakers. A few minutes into the movie I switched on the new system and she actually had to admit that it was worthwhile. The difference is actually quite amazing. Instead of listening to tinny little muddy-sounding speakers, all of a sudden the whole room fills with sound and voices seem to come from the faces instead of from the wall behind the TV. I like the appearance of the sound bar below the TV instead of placed as individual speakers, so I did an experimental hookup in that manner first. It sounded lousy. No separation at all, and just a bit of an improvement over the TV speakers. Then I separated the speakers, mounted them on their bases and placed them at the outer edges of the TV. They are so elegant and built to the same look as the TV, so they look like they just belong there. Now the sound popped like it was supposed to. The sub, for a small unit like this, does what it is supposed to. It won't shake the floor, but it does the job, and is easily tucked into an inconspicuous corner nearby. It does need to be left exposed, however, so the IR remote can "reach" the sensor. The build quality of this set is actually amazing, but Panasonic is good for that. I chose the Panasonic plasma TV recently and then this speaker system because over the last 30 or 40 years of buying lots of audio equipment, TVs and other electric/electronic devices, I have never had a Panasonic anything fail me. Can't say that for Sony, Sanyo, Toshiba, Onkyo, etc., etc. Why only 4 stars, then? Only because like many other reviewers have said, there seems to be no way to get the Viera link electronics to turn on the speakers with the TV. Off, yes. On, no. Panasonic has known about this for a long time and has not addressed the issue.
I Purchase This Item Even Thought I Read All The Bad Reviews and Boy Where They Wrong. For The Price I Paid The Sound Bar Blow Me Away. I Have It Hooked Up To My PS4 N oushes Out Great Sound The Subs Are Pretty Good. But I Only Recommend This For Bedroom To Get The Full Thrill Of This Item
working with the tv great.
The systems seems to be pretty good, but beware, contrary to what the description says, this is NOT wireless!!! If you don't care about wireless, then this would be a great system for you!!!
For a small room (say maybe 10 x 10) it may work fine. In my case, unit has to be turned up almost to full volume to enjoy. FYI subwoofer has wires.
was fast to set up looks great sounds so much better
was thinking great 1 more remote but as it will switch from HDMI 1 over to 2 I don't have to fuss with the TV remote to find the HDMI inputs any more it is more then I need in my room for sound I will be getting 1 for my girl friend now as the sound is so much better then the TV can ever put out
I was very excited about this product seemed like a great value, problem is I can't get it to work with my Sony Bravia TV, it only has HDMI ports for hook up and apparently the sound link does not like my 3 year old TV, I have three HDMI ports on my TV and none of them allows the sound to transfer. I called Panasonic for support and their response was I need to call Sony because it must be a problem with my TV.
The sound quality is really good and the setup was really easy.
I ordered this product as a xmas gift & although it arrived on time it was missing the actual sound bar!!!!!! Sooooo of course i was very upset considering it arrived by the 23rd. The only good thing out of this tragedy was the store let me replace it, without hassle.
My problem is from the picture it looks like total 3 speakers now that being said I dislike the tv input volume it is not as high as say my computer idk why but if I do find the way to fix I feel it would be worth every penny
We are pleased with what we received for the price we paid. The sound is clear and is not the least bit "tinny" and as we were replacing very high quality speakers and sound system, it is great to be able to enjoy good audio at a reasonable price. (We are in the process of moving the "auditorium quality" system to another location nearer our outdoor entertainment area and needed a replacement system for our large flatscreen in the living area.) It was easy to install, but make sure you have all the cables and equipment that you need before you begin, as not everything is included.
awsome sound
I was trying to find a relatively cheap soundbar with 2 HDMI inputs as a gift for my dad and this fit the bill. The sound is far better than tv speakers and it doesn't take up much room. The only negative is that there is no volume display.
Ordered this sound bar for my fiancé's bday and it was exactly what he had wanted. Super easy setup and awesome sound quality. Loved it.
Unit is not very powerful. Sound was good. This surround sound would be best for a small room, other than the living room.
sound was good, extra hdmi cable hookup
Not as room filling as I had hoped.

1Peter 1:5-note
who are
protected (word study) (PPPMPA)
by the power of God through faith for a salvation
ready to be revealed
in the last time
Tense, Passive Voice,
Participle, Masculine, Plural, Accusative
From Peter's use of Present
one can see that in context (see also discussion of
context) he is referring to born
again ones, describing them as those who are "continually being protected
by the power (dunamis) of God". God's protection of His children isn't fickle, present one
day and absent the next. You can see how even the most basic understanding of
verb tense can add so much to the meaning.
Knowledge of the tense of a verb can
sometimes be critical for accurate interpretation. For
example read the following verse...
1Jn 3:9: "No one who is born of God
(present tense) sin (noun),
because His seed abides in him and he cannot
sin (verb),
because he is born of God."
Look at the verb
At first glance the verse seems to imply that one who is "born of God"
can never commit a sin and yet all genuine believers know that this is not a
reality (cf 1Jn 1:8, 2Chr 6:36,
Ec 7:20, Jas 3:2).
When you understand that the verb
is in the present tense, it becomes
clear that John is saying that one who is born of God cannot
habitually commit sins as their general pattern of life. The verb "practices"
is also present tense and conveys the same thought. All believers
commit sins but not habitually or as their lifestyle. Application: if one's lifestyle is
that of continual sinning in conjunction with no desire for
holiness (cf He 12:14), these individuals need to examine whether they are
genuinely new creatures in Christ (2Cor 5:17-note)
born from above (Jn 3:3, 5, 2Co 13:5-note).
And so one can see that in 1Jn 3:9 (as in most of
chapter 3 of first
the accurate interpretation of the passage is aided by a proper
understanding of the verb tense.
Depending on the context, the
following adverbs may be useful to "amplify" the meaning of a verb in the
present tense:
constantly, habitually".
Present Tense with the indicative mood represents
contemporaneous action, as opposed to action in the past or future. In moods
other than in the indicative mood, it refers only to continuous or repeated
States that an action
occurs without regard to its duration. It is analogous to a snapshot which
captures an action at specific point in time.
In indicative mood, aorist can indicate punctiliar action (happens at a
specific point in time) in past
1Peter 1:3-note Blessed
be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ who according to His
great mercy has caused us to be born again
to a living hope through the resurrection
of Jesus Christ from the dead,
Aorist Tense, Active Voice,
Participle, Masculine, Sing., Nominative
The Aorist tense conveys
the truth that the believer's new birth (indicative mood is mood of reality) has occurred at a point in the
past without specifying when this event occurred. The passive voice
indicates this new birth was produced by a Source outside of the recipient
and in context that Source is "the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ".
Depending on the context the following adverbs may be useful to
"amplify" the meaning of the action portrayed by the aorist tense:
"Effectively, successfully, completely, even
once, actually, really".
Aorist tense is somewhat
difficult to grasp, so don't be frustrated if you don't receive any
glowing practical insights initially. If you continue to perform Word Studies
(including verb tense, voice and mood) as an integral part of your Bible study,
you will begin to appreciate the meaning of the aorist tense and you will
begin to receive insights from this understanding.
One writer adds "strictly speaking, the
aorist denotes past time only in the indicative; in the other moods the
aorist is not confined exclusively to action in the past. Unlike the
imperfect, the aorist is used to express an action that is not continuous or
habitual." (Learning the Basics of New Testament Greek. AMG Publishers)
1Peter 1:4-note to
obtain an inheritance which is imperishable and undefiled and will not
fade away,
reserved (word study) (RPPFSA)
in heaven for you
Perfect Tense, Passive
Voice, Participle, Fem, Sing, Accusative
In this verse Peter uses the Perfect Tense
to convey the truth of the "living hope" (not "hope so" but a certain expectation
of future good.
Click more on "hope") that believers have an
inheritance that has been reserved for us at a point of time in the
past (when we were born again)
and remains in a state of being "reserved". What a great picture. When
taking a long road trip we have all had the misfortune of arriving at our
motel late at night, only to discover that our reservation has been given
away! Peter says that this "mistake" will not happen to believers when we
reach our final destination in heaven, for our future home (and inheritance)
have been reserved for us in the past and that reservation is valid for
all eternity because the "reservation price" has been "paid in full"
when Jesus' cried out "It
is finished (notes)" (Jn
"Finished" (teleo
- word study) in Jn
19:30 is also in the
perfect tense and refers to Messiah's work of having obtained "once
for all eternal redemption" (He 9:12-note),
making possible "so great a
salvation" (He 2:3-note)
(eternal life) through the payment of His precious blood (1Pe 1:18, 19-note)
on Calvary, so that all the sinful sons of Adam (Ro 5:12-note)
who justly deserved their wages for sin (eternal death) might receive
"the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord" (Ro 6:23-note)
by grace through faith (Ep 2:8-note,
cp 1Pe 1:3-note,
1Pe 1:21-note,
Jn 5:24, 8:24, Ac 16:31).
The entire sense of Jesus' poignant cry
is "It was finished and as a result it is forever done!" "It stands
finished!". The priests in the tabernacle always stood when ministering the
sacrifices. But Jesus Christ our great High Priest is seated because His
work is forever finished. He need never arise and offer another sacrifice
because full payment for our sins has been paid in the past with His
sacrificial blood and the effect of that payment will endure throughout
eternity! This is indeed good news, beloved of the Lord!
In short, the perfect tense is very
expressive for it speaks of an action that took place in the past, which was
completed in past time, and existence of its finished results. For
instance one might say "I have closed the door" which speaks of a past completed action. But
the implication is that as a result the door is still closed. Thus, the
entire meaning is, "I have closed the door and it is closed at present." You can see how a simple understanding of
the perfect tense can often amplify the meaning which may not be readily apparent in the
English translation, because the perfect tense has no exact equivalent in English.
In Matthew 4:4,
our Lord answers Satan, "It is written" and "written" is in the perfect
tense. Here Jesus quoted from Deuteronomy which had been written by Moses
1500 years before, but is still on record. David said, "Forever, O Lord,
thy word is settled in heaven." A good paraphrase would be "It stands
written forever." It is the eternal word of God and you can stake your life on it
yesterday, today and tomorrow! (cf He 13:8, Mt 24:35, Ps 89:34, Is 40:8,
55:11, 1Pe 1:25)
In Ephesians 2:8-note we read, "For
by grace you have been saved through faith" where "have been saved"
study) is in the perfect tense. The picture
therefore for every believer is that each we were given the gift of salvation
at a specific time in the past when we believed, and as a result of that past
completed work of Jesus Christ on the Cross and our past acceptance of the
same, we at present are eternally "safe" (saved) and continue in that state
forever in Christ. Amen. A believer's present possession of salvation therefore is based upon one
thing only -- what Jesus did on the Cross for us and our acceptance of
His finished work which means that the works of an individual, past or present, good
or bad, do
not enter into our acceptance or retention of salvation (Titus 3:5-note;
2Ti 1:9-note). Salvation is the
work of Christ alone and our reception of that salvation is by faith alone
in Christ alone. The believer is the recipient which means that the
believer is saved and saved forever, for the present results of the perfect
tense are always present with the reader.
REPEATED or
Acts 16:7
and after they came to Mysia,

Spirit of Jesus did not permit them
3PIAI = 3rd
Person, Plural, Imperfect Tense, Active Voice, Indicative Mood
The Imperfect tense
denotes continuous, ongoing or repeated action in past. Thus the imperfect tense often
"paints" a vivid picture of an action ("motion
picture") as one which happens over and over. E.g., in Acts
16:7 Luke uses the imperfect tense to
portray Paul attempting to enter Bithynia, being hindered in some way by the
Holy Spirit and yet trying again and again to enter! Interesting! This dramatic picture gives
us an intriguing insight into the heart of Paul that cannot be gleaned
without a basic understanding of the imperfect tense. Doesn't the added
insight help make this verse literally "come alive"? This is often
the effect of the
imperfect tense.
Michael Heiser
on the imperfect tense = "The verb tense where the writer portrays an action
in process or a state of being that is occurring in the past with no
assessment of the action's completion."
Look at some other examples of the picture painted
by the imperfect tense...
Mark 4:37 And there arose a fierce gale
of wind, and the waves were breaking over (imperfect tense) the boat so much that the boat was
already filling up.
Comment: Can't you picture
yourself in the boat with the waves pounding again and again (imperfect tense
conveys this picture) against the
side and even beginning to fill the boat with water.
Luke 9:16 Then He took (aorist) the five
loaves and the two fish, and looking up (aorist) to heaven, He blessed
(aorist) them, and broke (aorist) them, and kept giving (imperfect)
them to the disciples to set before (aorist) the people.
Comment: The blessing and breaking
of the loaves and fish happened in a moment of time, while the "giving" of
the bread and fish occurred over and over, which paints a vivid picture of
the miraculous nature of the event. Try to place yourselves in the
disciples' "sandals" for a moment!
These examples should help you see the wonderful added insights that are
possible with just a simple understanding of the verb tenses.
If you are intrigued, take some time and
practice applying your new understanding to a few other NT verses that
use the
imperfect tense and
see if you do not glean some added insights which help make the
texts "come alive" as you envision the action suggested by the imperfect
tense (this exercise will be most
beneficial if you read verses in
Mt 2:4
"he began to inquire" (imperfect)
Mt 26:59 "kept trying to obtain
(imperfect) false testimony"
Mt 27:23 "they kept shouting (imperfect) all the more"
Mk 7:26 Now the woman was a Gentile, of
the Syrophoenician race. And she kept asking (imperfect) Him to cast the demon out of her daughter." (what a vivid scene!).
If you have meditated on
Primer on Meditation) the pictures portrayed by the over and over
(imperfect tense) actions in each of the preceding verses, you are beginning
to see the incredible value of a simple understanding of this tense. You
were probably familiar with each of the scenes depicted, but heretofore you
had viewed them only as "black and white stills", whereas now illumined by
your understanding of the imperfect tense, you can see them as
vividly "colorized motion pictures".
habitually follow this command! The Present Imperative is often a call to
a long-term commitment and calls for the attitude or action to be one's continual way of life
(lifestyle). (See
all NT occurrences of the present imperative - makes for an interesting
These actions are not "suggestions" but commands to make each
attitude/action our habitual practice. Remember that whatever God commands of us, He always
provides the grace and empowerment in Christ Jesus and His Spirit so that we
might be enabled to carry out the command.

''STOP an action which is

contrast to present imperative which commands a habitual action).
Often expresses a note of URGENCY. (See

As explained below the Voice
highlights the relationship of the subject to the verbal action.
Verbs in active voice picture the
subject as the
one who performs or produces the action or exercises a
certain activity. Active voice represents the action as being
accomplished by the subject of the verb. The Active
voice is the most common voice in the NT, occurring 20, 697 times
compared to 3500 for middle and 3933 for passive.

= Present Tense, Active Voice, Participle, Masc, Plural, Nominative
The passive voice conveys the idea that
the SUBJECT is being
ACTED UPON by an OUTSIDE force or power. SUBJECT is the RECIPIENT or
the RECEIVER of the verbal
action or effect. In English passive voice is usually indicated
by the phrase
"to be".
1Pe 1:15-note
but like the Holy One Who called
holy yourselves also in all your behavior
= 2nd person, Plural, Aorist Tense, Passive Voice, Imperative Mood
Peter's point then is that it is not
believers who make themselves holy (eg, by keeping a list of do's
and don't's) but it is
God Who makes us progressively more and more holy as we surrender our will
to His sweet will. (See
related topic:
LORD Who Sanctifies)
Michael Heiser - The grammatical
voice that signifies that the subject is being acted upon; i.e., the subject
is the receiver of the verbal action. A verb in the passive voice with God
as the stated or implied agent is often referred to as the "divine
This voice means that the SUBJECT initiates the action
and participates in the results of the action. In other words
the subject is both doing and receiving the action. The middle voice
indicates the subject performs an action upon himself or herself
(reflexive action) or for their own benefit. E.g., "The boy groomed
The middle voice is reflexive
which describes an action directed back on the subject ("he perjured
himself"). It is often translated with words like "-self"
(himself, herself, themselves, etc).

The easiest way to do this on the web is
to search "Strong's Interlinear" (search box below). Simply type in the passage
that has the word in which you are interested and click "Search." A new page
opens on Studylight.org. Scroll down to passage and hold your mouse over the
English or Greek word and the box pop up is the Strong's Number for that word.

Comment: You probably noted that there
were more uses of tereo in the KJV than the other two translations. The reason
for this is that the KJV is translated from an older Greek manuscript (Textus

Comment: From
the following compilation of commands, it is clear that our Father places
considerable emphasis on Commands in Scripture, and for followers of Jesus Christ,
our obedience to His commands (specifically those commands which in
apply to us today) is
our tangible way to say we really do love Jesus! (Jn 14:15, 23, 24, Paul
adds 1Cor 16:22)
Beloved, don't miss this point! Love is not a sentimental emotion,
as too often portrayed in modern day Christianity. Yes, God is love
(1Jn 4:8, 16), but John also writes God is Light (1Jn 1:5-note).
Love and Light (holiness) counterbalance one another. We
cannot say we love God and choose to walk in the darkness! That is a lie and
we are not practicing the truth (1Jn 1:6-note).
The way we live our life, the choices we make each daily, will
resound clearly in heaven either "I love You Lord" or "I don't love You
Lord"! There is no middle ground regarding love of Jesus and walking in the
light. But praise God, Jesus knows that the old
flesh nature (still
present in all believers) continually calls us to run from God's commands
(leading to licentiousness) or to carry them out in
our own fleshly strength (leading to legalism). But thanks be to God for He has given us the
Helper, the Holy Spirit, Who indwells every believer (Romans 8:9-note)
and provides us with both the desire and the power (Philippians 2:13NLT-note,
cp Ezekiel 36:27-note) to walk in His
enabling power and not carry out the desire of the flesh
(Galatians 5:16-note).
Our part, our responsibility under grace not law (Romans 6:14-note)
is to make choices (Php 2:12-note,
but even the desire for such "holy" choices being
"energized" or enabled by the Spirit) motivated by His love which
constrains (controls, compels, urges, impels) us (2Cor 5:14-note) to
choose to obey His non-burdensome commands (1Jn 5:3). And oh what a reward He
promises us in John 14:21!. Thank You Lord. Amen.
One final practical
thought: Every encounter with a
command to obey,
is our opportunity to jettison self-reliance and to yield to the
enabling power of the Holy Spirit. Supernatural commands from the
supernatural God can only be carried out with reliance on His supernatural
power! The Spirit is called the Helper, but don't let His Name mislead you.
To say that we need His help is to imply we have some ability
of our own to obey and are in need of a little "push" so to speak. It is
better to say that we need Him to enable us to obey divine
commands, for the word enable indicates that without His
power we cannot obey. Webster says enable means "to
supply with power, physical or moral, to furnish with sufficient power or
ability!" In Philippians 2:12-13, Paul describes the incomprehensible,
mysterious balance between man's free will and God's sovereign provision of
His Spirit!

When purchasing outdoor furniture, an important factor to look for is the weight. Often the heavier the furniture, the more quality you can expect. Chairs or tables of higher quality will usually contain more raw material, making them heavier. If you plan to use your furniture outdoors, heavier is better. Strong winds can often blow lighter furniture away and can even cause it to be damaged. If you'd like more information on outdoor furnishings, contact a dealer in your area.

Eighty-seven billion dollars. That's the amount President George W. Bush has asked Congress to appropriate in the next fiscal year for the military occupation and reconstruction of Iraq. That will bring the cost of the Iraq war to a two-year total of $166 billion. The entire sum will be added to the deficit, which is now expected to reach half a trillion dollars. If nothing else, the president's request should put the final nail in the coffin of the Republican Party's reputation for fiscal responsibility.
Bush and his economic advisers are gambling that the economy will rebound despite what threatens to be a deficit that will reach 5 percent of the gross domestic product, a threshold of indebtedness many economists fear will trigger economic instability, if not disaster. The president seems immune to such worries, convinced that his policy of tax cuts and unlimited military spending will stimulate business investment and jobs and consequently tax revenue. Of course, however many billions he spends on the ill-defined war on terrorism, Bush continues to chastise Congress about "discretionary" domestic spending. But like the rosy scenarios of a quick transformation of Iraq from despotism to democracy, the administration's budget making is based more on rigid ideology than economic reality or political realism.
Only last spring administration hawks, such as Deputy Defense Secretary Paul D. Wolfowitz, were...

So, I would like my quiz to give different result based on most A, B, C, D or E answers. No correct or incorrect answers, 1 possible choice per question.
I tried for hours and no luck. Although this quiz plugin is brilliant, I couldn't figure this out. I tried with points system but it simple isn't good enough because it goes for average points instead of mostly chosen numbers/letters.
Any ideas?

MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) - The former head of voter registration in
the Alabama Secretary of State's office has lost another round in a
five-year battle to get her job back.
The Alabama Supreme Court on Wednesday ruled against Anita
Tatum, saying she did not follow proper procedure when she appealed
to the State Personnel Board.
Tatum resigned her position in 2004, but later appealed to the
board, saying she had really been fired because she was forced to
resign by then-Secretary of State Nancy Worley. The State Personnel
Board ruled against her.
Tatum then went to Montgomery County Circuit Court, which
rejected a motion to dismiss Tatum's case. The Alabama Supreme
Court said the local court was wrong and should have ruled in favor
of the secretary of state.

Protests in Karnataka over Cauvery waters release to Tamil Nadu
There were protests in Karnataka on Friday following the release of Cauvery water to Tamil Nadu late Thursday. A crucial meeting was on in New Delhi to decide the quantum of water needed by the two states for the remaining part of this month.
Karnataka released the water to avoid contempt of court as the Supreme Court had directed the state Wednesday to give Tamil Nadu daily 10,000 cusecs of Cauvery waters till Sunday.
On the court's direction, the Cauvery Monitoring Committee met in New Delhi to work out the water needs of the two states in view of vast divergence in their claims.
The apex court had also directed the CMC, comprising Union water resources secretary and chief secretaries of Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Kerala and Puducherry, to submit a report to it on its decision. Hence, the CMC decision is crucial for both the states.
Karnataka Chief Minister Jagadish Shettar, who flew to New Delhi Friday morning to plead the State's case with the Central government, met Union Water Resources Minister Harish Rawat and briefed him on the difficulty the state would face if more water is released to Tamil Nadu. "We explained to the minister the serious drought situation, lack of water in our reservoirs and our requirement," Shettar told reporters after the meeting.
The water issue release disrupted Karnataka assembly proceedings as the opposition Congress and Janata Dal-Secular members staged a 'dharna' (protest) against release of water by the BJP government. The protest forced Speaker K.G. Bopaiah to briefly adjourn the House. However, with the two parties resuming 'dharna' after the house re-assembled, Bopaiah adjourned it for the day.
The Cauvery belt in the state witnessed protests by farmers and Kannada activists for the second day Friday. Farmers' organizations have called for a shut-down of Mandya, about 80 km from Bangalore and a hotbed of agitation, if Cauvery water is to be released to Tamil Nadu while Karnataka faces drought.
Vehicular movement between Karnataka and Tamil Nadu has been stopped on the border of Chamarajanagar district in Karnataka, police said. Chamarajanagar is about 200 km from Bangalore.

Looking for feedback on my portfolio design. It has been up for three months now and I have never officially asked for critique.
I'd love ideas on how to show the latest blog post on the homepage. I'm not sure where to put it without cluttering things up too much. Right now the blog seems kind of hidden without that, though!

I'm trying to image damaged CDs, some of which have bad sectors in important areas. I know there are tons of software out there that will create a disk image even if they run into bad sectors. My problem is that those bad sectors are just skipped (copied as zeros). Is there any way at all to instruct or force the drive to return what it managed to read in a damaged sector, regardless of whether the sector's CRC was OK - pretty much force it to behave as if it is reading an audio CD? I did not find any information on this, so I'll be very thankful if anyone has any information on this. I'm not afraid to write some assembly code or do some soldering either, so any tips are welcome.
Here are some things I've already tried:
- Use different imaging/copying software, including ddrescue, imgburn, and winhex. CD is read as a data disk and bad sectors are not returned by the drive.
- Read CD in raw access mode.
Some ideas (please post if you know that any of these will/will not work):
- Issue some low-level ATA command to disable CRC / force drive into audio CD mode?
- Custom firmware?
- Insert audio CD then swap to the needed data CD without opening tray?
Any other ideas are welcome, no matter how crazy :)

In life there are times when it seems that those doing the wrong thing garners more attention then those that are doing the right thing. We now live in the unfortunate time where people will prostitute their morals and values all for the sake of attention. Recently, a very famous young lady appeared on an awards show and presented herself in a way of one that lacks class by performing an inappropriate dance that sent the media into a frenzy. What I find interesting about the whole thing is the timing in which it was done, before this there wasn't much being said about her, then something influenced her to do something that definitely wasn't right, but it got her the attention that she desired. You can call it brilliant marketing, strategic planning or boldness. Regardless of what you call it, one thing we can't call it is "good". One very important thing that is being overlooked in all of this is the negative influence and impact this is having on countless of young impressionable minds. The Internet is filled with clips of young and old people alike doing and saying things that are disturbing and down right immoral all for the purpose of seeing how many likes, shares and comments they can accumulate.
For those of you that are committed to doing the right thing at all cost please be encouraged and know that God sees you and He will reward you in due time. While studying the Bible I came across a verse that really inspired me, please allow me to share it with you; "If you search for good, you will find favor; but if you search for evil, it will find you!" Proverbs 11:27 (NLT)
This verse sheds light on a very important truth; When your motives are pure, unselfish and you desire to do what is right in the sight of God, you will win the esteem of others, in other words God will give you favor with all and before all. But if you're out to do bad, wrong and cause trouble for others you will get it for yourself. The scripture is clearly letting us know that it's better for you to do good, it carries a great benefits package. Even as you see and hear about all of the crazy and wrong things that's going on in this world, the Bible instructs us in this; "And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not." Galatians 6:9 (KJV) It's wonderful to know that you will reap for all the good that you have done, are doing and will do. So, continue to press forward, remain focused and be encouraged!
Your Friend in Christ,
Gary L. Adams
"I believe that every human mind feels pleasure in doing good to another."

Don't worry about the Anemones, if they are anything like the ones we have all that digging them up will do is create thousands of root cuttings, everyone of which will regrow.
I have a patch of bare soil in one border which has now been 'empty' for 5 years. Every 2 or 3 weeks a piece of Anemone pokes up through the soil and gets weed killer on it. And still it grows!
The Campanula looks like C. isophylla to me.
Not up on Begonia sorry.
All I have ever done is to pull it up and put the plant in the bin. Wash your hands maybe afterwards.
Posted this before, but cannot find it.
Sow the seed fresh. It germinates better straight from the plant rather than being dried off.
Cover lightly with grit, gravel or whatever rather than compost.
Sow in a deep pot rather than a seed tray (reasons later).
Leave exposed to weather. They need a period of cold followed by warmth to initiate germination.
When (if?) they germinate do not be in a hurry to p rick them out. This is the reason for deep pot rather than seed tray. They have only one root to begin with and if it is damaged, it dies and a new one has to be produced from the base of the seedling. usually they die.
Feed the seed pot with dilute Baby Bio type stuff, until the leaves go yellow then allow the pot to dry off.
Repotting may be done when they are dormant. Some types never really go dormant so be careful.
I often do not repot until they have had another seasons growth. Remember many of them actually grow in late winter/early spring.
Cannot think of anything else for the moment.
Not as hard as it seems.
The bigger the bulb the longer it takes to reach flowering size.
Agapanthus can take up to 7 years.
They can be kept in check. Our Bell Etoile is about to be pruned. I will reduce the length of the new shoots by half and that can be done again later on if it gets too much new growth. We still get good flowering and the shrub stays at about 8 feet tall.
There are dwarf forms which are as highly scented as any. We have Manteau D'Hermine and that is lower growing and highly scented. We also have some other unnamed ones which are so far staying at less than 4 feet tall. All of them are well scented. Sorry NC.
Phlox paniculata type as said, but not sure which one, there are dozens.
Give it a real good soaking, dryness at the roots is the main cause of mildew on Lonicera
Yes and yes!
It is a plant called Pokeweed, properly Phytolacca americana. The flowers are replaced by black berry like things which are toxic if eaten. I like the plant, but others don't. So a weed? That depends on whether you like it, or want it.
They cost me over £60 in that they not only rummaged around in a tray of 40 plants, they removed all the plants from the soil and spread them about. Naturally most of the plants died, or cannot be matched with their labels so at £1,50 each when sold, it was rather expensive. Where are the blooming cats when you need them.
Now I have to put shade netting over all the newly potted stuff just to keep them safe. A dratted nuisance when it comes to watering and maintenance.

I've a model with a 'belongs_to' association with another model. I'm hoping that in the view I can dereference through to an instance of the associated model to get properties of it?
class JungleMonkey extends MvcModel {
var $display_field = 'name';
var $belongs_to = array(
'JungleBranch' => array(
'foreign_key' => 'favourite_branch'
in my view I'd like to do something like:
<?php echo $object->favourite_branch->name; ?>
I'm guessing I can do this myself in the controller, but since all the meta data is in place, I wondered if the framework already handles this (or whether it's planned to in the future).
- thanks for the great work btw :)

Video Industry News Video Company News Technology Industry News Technology Company News Novelty Industry News Novelty Company News Gay Industry News Gay Company News Legal Industry News All Company News
Released: Dec 27th, 2007
Running Time: 207 Min.
Director: Mark Stone
Company: Wicked Pictures
Cast: Chris Cannon, Maui Kane, Marie Luv, Jada Fire, Randy Spears, Vanessa Monet, Kira Croft, Daisy Marie, Eric Masterson, Annette Schwarz, Brooke (formerly Brooke Banner), Tee Reel, Rachel Roxxx
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: All-Sex
Director Mark Stone's second installment in his cleverly titled interracial series is packed full of beauties. Stone's camerawork is expert and the music is creative but the sex is, sometimes, a little underwhelming.
A foul-mouthed Daisy Marie gets speared by Randy Spear as she urges him to "Hit that fucking pussy, motherfucker!" The lovely Latina's encouragement works, as Spears bangs her into the hottest scene in the title.
Brooke Banner and Jada Fire also do their best to blur those dreaded color lines with a multicultural foursome. But even four young bodies in motion doesn't draw forth the kind of potential that this series has buried in it. Something tells us this one is soon to hit its stride.
Retailing: Keep a close eye on Stone's solid interracial series.

Photo from an early 1900s postcard.
To whom it may concern
Hopefully this message will get to the church historian of FBC in DuBoise,pa.I restored an antique desk some 30 years ago, while disassebbling it I found some old papers some of which are;
1. an offering envelope #226 from April 1909 to march 1910 from your church
2. a postcard of Long Avenue Du Boise,Pa.
3 a report card , dated 1909/1910 for Cyrus Hutton , doing quit well I might add with a B average .
These items would better be left to rest in your collection of historical documents ,if you have such a thing.

Lost World LbNA # 13158

(Carved by Downhill Dad of 123 Family)
This Forest is a primeval forest located adjacent to the Science Center (which is separate from the Museum of Natural history nearby). The Forest is a 65-acre tract of relatively undisturbed mature mixed hardwood forest. It is a small remnant of the type of forest vegetation that originally covered the Piedmont region of Georgia, including the Atlanta metropolitan area.
Check forest hours. I do not believe there used is an admission charge for the exhibition & forest, although there is one for the planetarium. But donations are accepted!
In this oasis of old growth vegetation you never know who or what might have taken refuge many, many years ago Perhaps one of the creatures you can see in the exhibition hall or whose relatives stand tall at the nearby Museum decided it would be more at home in the forest.
You must go through the exhibition hall to get to the forest; exit through the rear doors. Instructions tell you to register at the small guard house. I guess they want to make sure everyone is accounted for when they lock the gates! Please notice the posted sign for poison ivy by the gate be forewarned that poison ivy and copperhead snakes both call this forest home!
Youll be walking the Beginners Loop. After passing through the gate, go right. At your first intersection turn left down the hill. Follow until the bridge. Look under the near left corner of the bridge, between the wood and cement and youll find what you are looking for. I think hes a bit lost for this world. Please tuck back in well out of sight. (Because of the cracks between the wood planks, I had to stuff some small twigs as filler please make sure they are still there to restrict the view from above!)
To take the short way out, continue on the path, turning left up the hill. Or you can turn right and enjoy the pond and the beauty of this forest land as early explorers and southern Native Americans must have done hundreds of years ago.

Photographing with Sigma's new 50mm F1.4 DG HSM I A
The new Sigma 50mm F1.4 DG HSM I A is the ideal lens for portrait photography in natural or low light situations.
The new Sigma 50mm F1.4 DG HSM I A is the ideal lens for portrait photography in natural or low light situations.
As a natural light photographer there comes a time when even the best of us struggle with finding the right light. As I have mentioned in earlier blogs, the direction of the light and the beauty of a location may not be cohesive, meaning in order to get good light on your subject, you must use a part of the location that's not so pretty. Sound familiar? Learning how to make a location and the available light work for you, no matter where you are, is one of the greatest lessons you can learn as a photographer. Even now, as I travel for a living, I find myself in locations for the first time and need to be able to find the light almost immediately.
Learning to use manual settings in your camera will provide you with the ability to create the beautiful exposures you desire. The exposure in your camera is determined by several different settings. Exposure refers to the lightness or darkness of the image. The settings are: 1) the aperture, the lens opening, which lets in light and controls the depth of field; 2) the shutter speed, the speed by which the lens lets in light, and 3) the ISO, which controls the camera's sensitivity to light. The right combination of these three settings will give you a nearly perfect exposure and give you the effect you want for your image.
The challenges of photographing in natural light can be many. I don't always get to choose when I photograph, especially because I photograph children and sometimes the best time for them is in the middle of the day. When that happens there are a few things that can help to make this actually work pretty well.
I think one of the most important things I've learned in creating imagery with an impact is to anticipate what could happen next. I do this when I'm photographing children, although I never really know what's going to happen, I do know that something will happen.
Early December I found myself in Oahu, Hawaii on the north shore of the Island photographing the Pipeline Master's Competition. This is an International surfing competition that is by far one of the most exciting events I've had an opportunity to photograph.
Using Sigma's 18-250mm lens, I choose a very fast shutter speed at 1/2000 sec, F9.0 aperture and then compensated for additional light with an ISO of 640. These settings were all geared to make sure that my images were tact sharp and that I could stop the action while still getting an almost perfect exposure. Sigma's 18-250 lens responded perfectly to the fast speed I was using and even from that distance, the images were crystal clear. During the early morning hours, just as the sun was coming up, my settings varied from ISO 160-640. My aperture and shutter speed also changed from F 7.1 at the lowest to my shutter speed set at a minimum of 640.
As an available light photographer, learning how to control the light that comes into my camera is the single most […]
Recently, while I was in Salt Lake City I had a chance to work with Sigma's 17-70mm F2.8-4 DC Macro […]
Many times in my career I've had to work in locations I've never seen before. During that time I've had maybe 20 minutes to figure out where I'm going to set up my session. Whether I'm teaching a workshop/seminar or even with my new clients, it certainly gets my adrenaline working. This article is about the steps I take to make this successful.
First and foremost, the placement of my subjects has to do with the light as always. I'm driven by the quality of light available to me as well as the direction and location of where the light is coming from. Sometimes I will actually test out the light before photographing if possible so that I can see for myself what it looks like on the subject. I'm always looking for the light that will be the most pleasing for my client.
Most of my portrait work is all about photographing young children and their families. In most cases I have been working with these families for years. This session I'm about to share with you is one of my most recent.
Whether the age group of the children is between 3-5, or a more adult family like these three children ages 10-17 with their dogs, it's always a challenge to come up with new ideas and expressions that tell some kind of story and reflect where they are in their lives. Most of my sessions are about documenting a certain time in my client's life. With this family, Charlotte, who is now 17 is a senior in High School. My task is to create a senior portrait for her along with photographing the whole family and each individual child.
In most of my sessions, I'm always trying to stop the action of my subjects rather than show the movement. I would say the majority of my clients prefer to see sharp images of themselves and of their children. Sometimes the imagery, for me, feels a little bit static. So when I had the opportunity to photograph the Keeneland Races in Kentucky a few months ago, I decided to do something a little bit different and create some images with movement in them by slowing down my shutter speed to create the feeling of moving along with the subject. This creates a very soft image, but it still has enough detail that you can see what is happening. I found that it takes a lot of practice to get it right, or at least get close enough to create the illusion of movement. Recently, I have started to look for opportunities to do this in my work. As a professional photographer, I want to raise the bar for myself and be able to show my range of abilities by creating different effects in my work. Capturing the moment is still the most important aspect of my storytelling imagery, but how I do that is what I'm trying to change.

I am running WP 2.5.1 with both WP-OpenID and WP-Ajax-Edit-Comments, and I'm having a small glitch.
When OpenID is active, the "edit your comment" link with the countdown of how much time is left to do so does not show up on comments. I, when logged in as the admin, can see the link bar for my editing/deleting/etc. options, but the nifty link for subscribers or drive-bys that times out is gone. So, while the actual ability to edit seems to still be there, my commenters can't get to it.
I assume this is some kind of hook overlap, but I'm not hook-savvy enough to find it myself. *rueful* Can anyone suggest a fix or workaround for this? I'd be happy to edit my comment.php file if there's a way to call the link and counter manually...
Almost forgot: link to a page free for experimenting on.

I've got a current problem at work (i'm an IT manager) whereby users are logging into some of our systems using an account which is actually someone elses.
We have to be PCI compliant (you should probably note this).
Most of the internal systems i've sorted (but advise is always welcome on this too).
The current issue relates to an
external email campaign system that contains some customer information, users are using a single account that is actually designed for one person.
I believe every user should be logging in with their own username and password regardless of cost.
I need some information to back me up, and wondered just how legal it is to login as someone else to this kind of system?
I would have thought it's not PCI compliant or legal?

Just done a new install of 3.4.2 this weekend and have now been working on it for 2 days, just trying to change the permalinks.
This was originally and upgrade of an existing site, but because we've had so much trouble setting it up, and because there were only a few pages on it, we have trashed the site whole site twice and done two fresh installations and still can't get it working.
The htaccess file did not create automatically, so I copied one over from another site where permalinks do work. Every time I try to reset permalinks, the htaccess file is stripped out.
Any ideas?

Critical Rating: AAAA 1/2
Genre: Parody
The Graduate XXX: A Paul Thomas Parody puts a XXX spin on one of mainstream media's most promiscuous features. Just like the original, The Graduate XXX follows the life of Ben (Anthony Rosano) after he graduates college. Ben falls in love with Elaine Robinson (Raven Alexis), but in the process gets mixed up in an affair with his parents' friend and Elaine's mother, Mrs. Robinson (India Summer).
We're unclear whether the opening shot of Ben (Anthony Rosano) walking slowly along an airport corridor is supposed to be a parody of Dustin Hoffman's moving walkway ride in the movie this production is parodying, but at least it shows that director Paul Thomas has a flair for detail.
Indeed, just about all the iconic scenes are here, though often out of the order we're used to, and with some slight variations—for instance, Ben's affair first takes place in a sleazy motel rather than the classy high-rise of the original—and they're often used to set up sexual action.
As the plot thickens, of course, Ben is worried about his future—but not so worried he doesn't notice Mrs. Robinson (India Summer) sipping a drink in a corner—and she's so horny she slips in the bathroom for a quick tickle with what appears to be a hair trimmer. And Ben, standing outside the door, hears her and moans right along with her—a fact she can't help but notice.
She insists that he has to drive her home—and the viewer can easily detect the beginning of a mild S/M relationship in their repartee (which, thinking back, is not unlike the original)—and of course, once they're there, her seduction begins ... with a blowjob beside her daughter Elaine's (Raven Alexis) portrait.
Rosano nails his character in nearly every scene, and while Summer lacks a bit of the sophistication of Anne Bancroft, she plays a better—and definitely sexier and more adventurous—paramour. For instance, that first liaison has India tied and ball-gagged as Anthony whips her ass with a riding crop. (Don't worry; the sex gets somewhat more conventional after that—and a damned sight hotter!)
Time gets condensed in porn parodies, so it's only a few moments later that Ben goes on his first date with Elaine ... which upsets Mom terribly, though husband Herschel Savage is clueless. And of course, he takes her to a strip club featuring his old schoolmate Kagney Linn Karter—and of course, Kagney waves her tassles over Raven's head, then takes the pair back to her dressing room. But once they're gone, Kagney's manager/pimp Evan Stone fucks her on the floor.
India's face captures just the right emotions when Anthony spills his guts to Raven about their affair, but recovers enough to play bondage games with gal-pal Veronica Avluv—and of course, we know where that leads! Look for some paddling, horsie play, face-sitting and fingers in (and mouths on) pussies.
When Raven confronts Anthony about his stalking her on campus, it turns into a sweet, passionate love scene—until boyfriend Dale DaBone shows up and whisks her away—and Herschel warns Anthony to stay away from Raven's impending wedding to Dale. Does anyone need to be told what happens next?
Along the way, there's also a decent three-way between DaBone, Lexi Belle and Marie McCray stuck in that includes plenty of mish, cowgirl, doggie and oral, but it's just the icing on one of the most flavorful movies we've yet seen this year.

Dusty is a remote controlled plane for young fans of the new Disney/Pixar movie Planes and the film's leading plane Dusty. In the film Dusty is a cropduster plane with big dreams of racing in the Wings Around the Globe Rally. This R/C features Dusty's signature look from the film. The On/Off switch is located on the bottom of Dusty. Use the infrared duel joystick remote control to send Dusty moving forward, backward, and 360 degrees right and left. Dusty's propeller also spins as the R/C moves. Dusty goes into sleep mode when not in use. You can wake him up by pressing the orange button on top of the plane.
This R/C racer lets Planes fans create their own fake flying adventures and bring one of their favorite Planes characters to life off-screen.
While Dusty with Infrared Remote Control is age-graded for kids 4 and up, we think the learning curve required to use it makes it better suited for a slightly older child.
The plane does not move forward and backward in a straight path. Instead it moves forward then naturally starts to turn. To move it in a straight path, send it forward slowly then use the right and left controller to help it remain on a straight path. This could be frustrating for a young child.
Dusty doesn't actually fly. It moves across the floor on wheels.
It's recommended for indoor-use only.
Four AAA batteries are required for the plane and two AA are required for the remote control, which are not included.
