Paul Boyer, When Time Shall Be No More: Prophecy Belief in Modern American Culture (1992)
It's hard to imagine myself back to the time when someone needed to write this book. But when it first appeared, Boyer's When Time Shall Be No More mapped academic terra incognita. In 1992, neither Google nor Amazon existed and relatively few people had heard of the internet, some retailers did not accept credit cards, the Wall had just come down, and Left Behind hadn't even been published yet. Into that context, Boyer's book appeared, insisting that many Americans believed Jesus would return during their lifetimes. He argued that a) the belief that the world was rapidly approaching its end—particularly premillennialism—formed a major current in American Christian history and b) prophecy beliefs were alive and well during the postwar and Cold War eras, shaping public opinion on matters like economic policy and foreign affairs. Boyer offers careful readings of a massive body of material—and peppers his history with funny, fascinating tidbits. For example, he explains how a Canadian $1000 bill from 1954 got pulled from circulation after some citizens observed a smiling devil in Queen Elizabeth's hair. This, of course, meant that the country had aligned itself with the antichrist to conduct trade during the Last Days (283). Though occasionally sarcastic, at its best this book offers sensitive explanations for the "grassroots appeal" of dispensational premillennialism's esoteric eschatological schemes. "Meschech" kind of sounds like "Moscow," and Moscow is directly north of Jerusalem on a map, so it's easy to see why Americans might have interpreted Russia as the northern invader of Israel named "Gog" mentioned in Ezekiel 38 (see 155-156).
Though a little stale in its theoretical outlook, most of this book seemed surprisingly fresh 20 years after its publication. Boyer himself suggests that readers skip the first 112 snooze-inducing pages, which offer a sweeping overview of the apocalyptic genre, apocalyptic beliefs throughout premodern Christian history, and the emergence of premillennialism in America. The real meat of this book comes in its analyses of popular texts since 1945. The five chapters of part II point to themes we still grapple with as scholars of conservative Christianity: one big one being the ambiguous status of Judaism. As Boyer notes, dispensationalists were willing to grant Jews "a glorious past and future," but they did not know how to fit the present into their eschatological schemes (219). At least abstractly, conservative Christianity afforded Israel and essentialized "Judaism" important roles in the past and in the End Times. But dispensationalists simply didn't know what to do with living, unconverted Jews. Remarks Boyer, "at the heart of dispensationalism lies the assumption that Jews are essentially and eternally different" (220). Being trained by two experts in Christian Zionism—Yaakov Ariel and Shalom Goldman—has probably overdetermined my interest in this subject, but I think we still have a long way to go in unpacking conservative Christianity's interest in Israel and its ideas about Judaism's "biblical authenticity." I still can't figure out why so many evangelicals love Seder suppers and Marc Chagall's paintings, but still insist that Jews need to convert to Christianity. But I digress.
A person could still assign chapters of When Time Shall Be No More for an undergrad course on Christianity post-1945. As I hinted above, this book has grown only a little musty with time. It completely disregards images, occasionally makes snide judgments about the quality of the material it examines, and—worst of all—focuses unrelentingly on prophecy beliefs. But it still holds tremendous value for scholars of postwar conservative Christianity… and it offers a wealth of primary sources for the future dissertation writer.

I picked this pack for the size and carry capacity, and am extremely happy with the weight distribution once loaded. Easily carries everything I require for an emergency EDC pack, as well as a quick sling pack for 1 day hikes.
I am right handed, but prefer the left carry as it hangs out of my way and allowed me to easily pull it across for access. Concealed carry pouch is spacious and slows for a quick clean draw of needed.
I highly reccomend picking one up.

AbstractThis paper presents a fundamental simulation method to generate synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images for moving ocean surfaces. We have designed the simulation based on motion induced modulations and Bragg scattering, which are important features of ocean SAR images. The time domain simulation is able to obtain time series of microwave backscattering modulated by the orbital motions of ocean waves. Physical optics approximation is applied to calculate microwave backscattering. The computational grids are smaller than transmit microwave to demonstrate accurate interaction between electromagnetic waves and ocean surface waves. In this paper, as foundations for SAR image simulation of moving ocean surfaces, the simulation is carried out for some targets and ocean waves. The SAR images of stationary and moving targets are simulated to confirm SAR signal processing and motion induced modulation. Furthermore, the azimuth signals from the regular wave traveling to the azimuth direction also show the azimuthal shifts due to the orbital motions. In addition, incident angle dependence is simulated for irregular wind waves to compare with Bragg scattering theory. The simulation results are in good agreement with the theory. These results show that the simulation is applicable for generating numerical SAR images of moving ocean surfaces.

Hi had my scan today and my little bean was there with a lovely strong heartbeat. Was really worried last night as had a little pink discharge when I went to the loo - apparently this cyst I have has been bleeding again....my word its is so worrying especially after losing the last two seems as soon as you start to relax something else goes wrong. I am 7 weeks and 5 days and see the obstetrician on Tuesday, cant wait will get some answers!!! Best wishes Flossie xx

Really pleased for you, it is very reassuring to see the little bean growing inside isnt it!. I was reading today that up until 5 weeks there is a 1 in 4 chance of miscarriage, by 6 weeks that has reduced to 1 in 6 and by 8 weeks it is down to 3%, at 12 weeks it is 1 %.
Therefore, your chances are getting better day by day, I think it is going to be third time lucky for both of us this time,
Take care xx

Well had another scan on Tuesday afternoon - I felt so emotional it has grown little arms and legs and was bouncing around on its head!!! So strange to think all that was going on and I couldnt feel a thing...Am now 10 weeks and 5 days and have been booked in for my Nuchal Scan on 26th March I am looking forward to it as it is so reassuring to see everything is ok. FingerCrossed hope everything is ok with you Flossie xx

I am so happy for you that things are progressing well, I kind of feel like we are in this together as we have both had such similar experiences and are only a day or so apart. I have got my dating scan on Wednesday when technically I should be exactly 12 weeks. I have been so desperate to have another scan since the 8 week one as I cant help but worry that something has gone wrong.
All of the signs are good though, no bleeding at all My boobs are huge now and still sore and although my morning sickness has dwindled it was a gradual process and at about the right stage to start dying down. I am not sure whether I have got a proper bump yet or whether it is all down to bloating, but a few people at work have said I am starting to look a bit pregnant.
I cant wait to be past the 12 week point, when does it end? as soon as you reach the 12th week or at the end of it???
I want so much for everything to be ok this time as I dont want to have gone through all of that sickness for nothing!!!
My hospital has told me that they dont have the capability of doing the nucal screening for Downs Syndrome yet and so I will just have to rely on the blood tests which is a little worrying but hopefully that will all be low risk.
Keep in touch about how everything is going, I have got my next midwifes appointment 2 weeks after the scan so I think all my tests will be done then for DS xxxx

Lovely news do let me know how you get on Wednesday, having to pay privately for my Nuchal Scan and blood tests but am only doing this because of my age which automatically puts me at 'high risk' and will do anything to avoid amniocentesis. Take care and keep in touch, Flossie xx

I had my scan this morning and thankfully my little bean has turned into bouncing bean - it kept jumping around while we were watching it which was fantastic to see. I could make out its arms and legs so it looks fairly complete at this stage which is a relief!
Is it usual though for them not really to date it - the scanner measured the baby and said it is about right for 11-12 weeks and that was it I thought I was supposed to get an expected delivery date comfirmed but she just said no, the scan is only an estimation. Is this normal??

Hi hun, i was given a due date on my first scan, but i'm not sure if it was based on my period date i gave them. They can tell more from the second scan if it is the correct size for the number of weeks.
For example, at my 21 week scan, she said the head was 21 weeks, and the legs were 22 weeks etc etc (bump has got very long legs LOL!!)
Hope that answers your question x

Fingerscrossed absolutely over the moon for you .....I was given an edd at my scan they moved me 1 day!!! to 4th October, the sonographer wrote all the information on a card then the midwife confirmed size of baby and due date, you may get a better idea when you see the midwife, its quite important though isnt it, makes it all official!.

Hello Ladies
I'm glad that everything is going well for you. I was going to say that you can have a successful pregnancy after miscarriage, my friend had 3 miscarriages before she had her first little lady .
I was very nervous until I had my first scan, when I went for my first scan they could not see anything when they put the equipment on my abdomen and I burst out into tears. Then I had the vagina scan and there was peanut or little cheesette (as my mum says lol) and I burst into tears again lol. I was 8 weeks and 4 days at this scan.
They do say once a heartbeat is confirmed there is a much better chance of the pregnancy carrying on.
My next scan is at 20 weeks and I can't wait. I went to my doctors twice because I had been having very bad pains and some blood but they did not send me for another scan. However the doctor examined my abdomen both times and said she could feel the uterus moving up in comparison to my first visit where she could not feel anything so that was good news that calmed me down abit.
My scan picture on my ticker is that scan I talked about, baby at 8 weeks and 4 days, view from the vagina passage lol.

Are you up to speed on Oracle Application Express 4.2?
By Laura Ramsey-Oracle on Oct 09, 2013
Here's what to know:
Oracle Application Express (aka: APEX) release 4.2 is installed by default in Oracle Database 12c. When you install Oracle Database 12c Multitenant Architecture, APEX is installed into the multitenant container database by default.
An interesting bit of trivia to impress your friends:
A single multitenant container database can have up to 252 pluggable databases (PDBs).
A cool feature of APEX 4.2:
APEX can be removed from the multitenant container database and re-installed locally into a single pluggable database. So a single Oracle Database 12c Multitenant Architecture can run different versions of APEX in each PDB.
What's new:
APEX 4.2.3 was released on September 16th, 2013. It is a cumulative patch set for APEX 4.2, 4.2.1 and 4.2.2. You can get it here.
Ready to learn more:
Look at this learning path for APEX. Free tutorials on how to create and run a database using APEX 4.2, manipulate database objects, add security to database applications.

form - In its widest sense, total structure; a synthesis of all the visible aspects of that structure and of the manner in which they are united to create its distinctive character. The form of a work is what enables us to perceive it.
Form also refers to an element of art that is three-dimensional (height, width, and depth) and encloses volume. For example, a triangle, which is two-dimensional, is a shape, but a pyramid, which is three-dimensional, is a form. Cubes, spheres, ovoids, pyramids, cone, and cylinders are examples of various forms.
Also, all of the elements of a work of art independent of their meaning. Formal elements are primary features which are not a matter of semantic significance — including color, dimensions, line, mass, medium, scale, shape, space, texture, value; and the principles of design under which they are placed — including balance, contrast, dominance, harmony, movement, proportion, proximity, rhythm, similarity, unity, and variety.

"Greg Kimmerly, the referee, initiated the review. He asked us if the puck entered the net in a legal fashion. There was no kick, and there was no glove. I can't apply anything about blowing a whistle, unless it is clearly well after the whistle. The only thing I can determine is whether the puck crossed the goal line legally – in a proper fashion. After that, it is simply the referee's call on the ice."

Tyler Palko won't be involved in this one. There really isn't much to this game at all. The Pittsburgh Steelers are beginning to hit their stride and are riding a three game win streak. The Chiefs are just all different kinds of awful. This game should be over by halftime for all intents and purposes. The problem is that the Steelers never do things that way. What should happen and what will happen are often two totally different things with this team. Especially when it comes to playing teams that aren't any good.
Steelers Offense vs. Chiefs Defense: There is really no escaping the one and only story line in this game. It's going to get brought to the forefront ad nauseum throughout the entire broadcast on Monday night. Of course that is Todd Haley returning to Kansas City where he was fired as the head coach last year. Essentially it's the media making a story where there isn't one. If Romeo Crennel came in and won and made Haley look like an idiot, we could talk about it. But the Chiefs are just awful. No coach is changing that. Let's move on.
The run game of the black and gold which has been given a life that it hasn't had for years is getting another boost this week. The backfield is the healthiest it's been since the streak of 100 yard games started with only Rashard Mendenhall being out of the lineup. Jonathan Dwyer will be active after missing last week but Isaac Redman will be getting the start after his career day against the Giants. The run game will be getting another assist. Dwyer and Redman are both largely between the tackle runners which means to stop them, the middle of the defense has to be strong. Well Glenn Dorsey will be missing this game with an injury. That will also effect the Chiefs' hopes for a pass rush. Dorsey is largely responsible for eating up the blockers to free Tamba Hali on the outside. That will now be the responsibility of Shaun Smith.
Despite giving up an average of 30 points per game, the Chiefs' defense isn't nearly as bad as you would think it is. Statistically, they fall in the middle of the pack in almost every category. The points that they give up is largely a byproduct of their pathetic offense. They are forced to spend a lot of time on the field and they are often defending a short field. The Steeler offense could have problems moving the ball if the Chief offense is effective enough to not put their defense in vulnerable positions. But that is a huge if.
Steelers Defense vs. Chiefs Offense: Have I mentioned yet how awful the Chiefs offense is? Well, it's worth pounding the fact. This offense has more than double the amount of turnovers than it has touchdowns. Matt Cassel alone almost has triple the amount of turnovers than touchdowns. That's not an exaggeration. He has turned the ball over 18 times to just seven touchdowns.
The bad thing is that if they didn't turn the ball over so much, they would actually be really effective. They are the third best team in the league running the football. Jamaal Charles has shown no ill effects from his season ending injury last season. Dexter McCluster is a matchup nightmare and he can be lined up all over the field as a running back, slot receiver, and Wildcat quarterback. Peyton Hillis provides them with an effective short yardage back. But unfortunately, they can't run the ball on every down. They need to throw so defenses won't constantly stack nine in the box and often when they throw the ball, it ends with the other team possessing it.
The biggest thing to keep an eye on from a defensive standpoint is Cassel's propensity for putting the ball on the ground. He has lost seven fumbles already this year and it's not going to be any easier in this game. Branden Albert is having a solid year at left tackle this season but he'll be taking on one of his biggest challenges to this point in James Harrison. If that isn't bad enough, Albert has been fighting a back injury that has limited him in practice all week. If his mobility is hindered during the game, Harrison is going to have a field day using his ability to create leverage. If Cassel gets rid of the ball quickly, he throws a lot of interceptions. If he holds onto it, he takes a lot of hits that often end in fumbles. Anything less than a multiple turnover output from the defense will be a disappointment.
Prediction: All indications seem to point to a Steelers blowout, correct? Well if you have been watching this team as long as I have, you know that somehow, someway, that won't happen. The Steelers have a sickness when it comes to playing down to their competition. The only awful team that they ever blow out is the Browns. And so far this year, the only game they won comfortably is the Redskins game and they've already lost two games to inferior opponents. That being said, neither of those teams were quite as bad as the Chiefs. The Steelers are going to win their fourth straight game. It's just going to be a lot closer than people expect. Steelers 16, Chiefs 7

Facebook is currently bringing its Page Manager app to Google Play for Android device owners who need to respond to their fans while on the go. This is certainly a step in the right direction, but Facebook's iOS presence is still substantially higher. Facebook has been hard at work trying to bring its Android presence to the same level as iOS. Facebook only recently launched a native Android app, which is something it did on iOS a long time ago. The social media giant also recently launched a Poke App on iOS and updated its messaging app with voice messages.
The Facebook Page Manager app for Android will offer page owners the ability to post new updates and photos. Page owners can also view and reply to private messages directly from the newly launched Android app. The new app allows page managers to stay connected the minute the something happens through notifications. Of course, if you have an incredibly active page, this might be a feature that is best turned off. The new app also gives page managers access to their insights on the go.
Those are some great features, but the app is still not as feature-rich as its iOS counterpart. The ability to add and promote Facebook Offers directly from the app is still absent from the Android version, but that feature was added to iOS after the initial release, so we expect the Android version will get the same treatment at some point.
The app is rolling out gradually on Google Play. This means you may not see it in your area just yet. Facebook has promised it will be available around the world over the course of the next couple of weeks. If you don't see it on Google Play where you live, just be patient, and it will be ready to use soon enough.

Penne with Broccoli and Creamy Tomato Sauce
Serves 4
30 minutes or fewer
- 10 oz. whole wheat penne
- 1 lb. broccoli
- 1 cup reduced-fat firm silken tofu
- 2 cups low-sodium jarred pasta sauce
- ½ cup chopped black olives, preferably kalamata
Enter your friends email address below and your name so they know who it's from
Serves 4
30 minutes or fewer
I tried out this recipe last night. The sauce was super tasty!! I used the only silken tofu option found in the refrigerated section with the other tofus. Kroger didn?t have low-fat, but it?s pretty low-fat anyway. It was a fantastic way to make a ?cream? sauce without the cream! I didn?t tell my boyfriend that I used tofu and he had no idea. I also didn?t use the black olives because I only like Kalamata and they are so expensive, but I bet they would have been good. I topped it with shredded Parmesan cheese just for fun.Sara - 2011-02-09 12:04:41

IBM.XMS is a JMS-style API for .NET; IBM.WMQ is a WebSphere MQ Classes

XMS can also interface with some other messaging systems such as SIBus.
XMS uses the IBM.WMQ classes, so the IBM.WMQ layer is 'thinner' and has
higher performance.
Generally I recommend you use whichever API has the programming model
you prefer.

How can firms help more women to succeed? Two senior partners provide some clues on the ways it can be achieved
They jokingly called it the battle of the bananas. The idea, say Jane Keir and Linda Woolley, was to introduce bowls of fresh fruit on the floors of their law firm, Kingsley Napley LLP.
"We were both on the management board. The other two men asked to have their dissent formally noted," Keir recalls. "They complained the fruit wouldn't be eaten, people would hoard it in their desks, infestation — every which way. It went ahead and now people love it."
That was seven years ago: subsidised yoga and personal training followed, and most recently a workplace choir — small but subtle

Theaters showing Mad Cowgirl should install seatbelts, because audiences are in for the ultimate wild ride.
The point is not very clear, but there's an impressive weirdness to Mad Cowgirl that elevated it above more strained attempts at transgressive cinema.
It's safe to say there will not be another movie this year like Mad Cowgirl. Whether that's a good or bad thing depends on your tolerance for copious bloodletting, hardcore pornography, and C-SPAN.

ANZ Frequent Flyer Black Ad
Keith Tan was on board this weekend's final Qantas direct flight from San Francisco to Sydney – a popular route which has now been axed in favour of a new direct service between Sydney and Dallas Fort Worth. He filed this report for Australian Business Traveller.
There was a noticeably sombre mood among Qantas staff at SFO International Airport when I arrived to check in for the last-ever QF74 to Sydney on the evening of Saturday May 7th.
The Qantas staff were wearing the obligatory 'service industry smile' but you could tell there was a sense of weary resignation as the Flying Kangaroo bid adios to SFO.
"You're sad?" the check-in agent quipped. "Think about how I'm feeling!".
Another member of the cabin crew shared her disappointment at losing access to her favourite port of call. After all, it's not hard to love San Francisco – and I doubt the longer haul and overnight in Dallas Fort Worth will have similar appeal to Qantas crew.
There were some nods to the finality of this flight. SFO gave Qantas a farewell on the departure board and the plane was sent off with a water cannon salute.
Onboard, cabin crew carried glow sticks which they activated after take-off when the cabin light were dimmed and the Boeing 747 flew a low-level loop over San Francisco (see the flight plan below).
So what now for those of us who regularly fly from Australia to San Francisco? The comments of fellow passengers in the lounge and on the flight painted an illuminating picture of how Qantas' decision to cull the SYD-SFO route from its network impacted on their travel plans.
Many regular travellers to SFO prioritised the convenience of a direct route and would not hesitate switching their airline of choice to United, especially for United business class, and also said they would welcome the entry of Virgin Australia as a direct-to-SFO alternative.
Almost in equal measure were the number of SFO travellers who perceive Qantas as having a superior product to United and said they would not mind transiting via Los Angeles.
As someone who is based in Melbourne and flies to San Francisco approximately three times a year, the decision by Qantas to drop SFO is not going to have a major impact on my travel plans.
There are currently no direct services between Melbourne and SFO, and journey between the two ports has always involved a one-stop connection via Sydney, Auckland or Los Angeles.
I make it a point to support Australian carriers, as I revel in the familiarity of the easy-going yet professional Australian style of service.
My choices are therefore further narrowed down to flying via Los Angeles with Qantas or Virgin Australia. If anything, the field has now been leveled for both carriers, given the advantages of flying with Qantas via Sydney and onwards to SFO have now been removed.
Any connection involving LAX's Tom Bradley International Terminal is surely an annoyance on the best of days to even the most hardened road warrior. Bring on a Virgin Australia service to SFO, I say – but please, bring it to Melbourne as well as Sydney.

CARUTHERSVILLE - The New Madrid County Central Eagles football team invaded Hopke Field in Caruthersville on Friday night and caged the Tigers 30-29.
The difference in wins and losses are sometimes determined by inches. On Friday night, an inch was indeed the difference as Caruthersville's quarterback Keith Creekmore was denied by the interior defensive line of the Eagles on a two-point conversion attempt as Creekmore came up inches short of paydirt.
With the score 30-23 in favor of NMCC, the Tigers started a long drive with five minutes to play in the fourth quarter. After a great catch by Rashad Fields of Caruthersville for 20 yards and hard-nosed running by running back Kendrickus Reed, the Tigers were threatening on the Eagles' 6-yard line with 55 seconds in the game.
Reed scored on a 6-yard run and the score was 30-29. After a timeout, coach Brad Gerling gambled and decided to go for the two-point conversion.
In the game, Reed rushed for 194 yards up to the point of the conversion attempt and had scored earlier on a two-point conversion but Gerling opted to call for a quarterback sneak with Creekmore who weighs 20 pounds less than Reed.
At the snap of the football, Creekmore surged forward behind center Ted VanAusdall. Tiger fans leapt to their feet in anticipation of a successful two-
point attempt. However, officials ruled that Creekmore came up inches short of the goal line.
After the Eagles recovered the onside kick, they ran the rest of the 55 seconds off the clock and prevailed 30-29.
Gerling thought it was all a matter of momentum on the play call at the end of the game.
"We had all the momentum and the kids were all for it," said Gerling. "He got that conversion. His helmet and pads were over the goal line. Just didn't get the call."
Coach Arlen Pixley of the Eagles was happy with the outcome of the play on the goal line.
"It was a gutsy call no doubt about it," said Pixley. "They had all the momentum and I guess they were trying to get the win at home."
NMCC started off the scoring in the game after Reed fumbled on the first play of the game for the Tigers and NMCC had great field position.
Antonio McIntosh scored a 7-yard touchdown run at 8:27 of the first quarter. After the PAT, the Eagles led 7-0.
After receiving the kickoff, the Tigers fumbled on their second play on offense but were bailed out by their defense who stiffened and held the Eagles out of the end zone.
Caruthersville got rolling on their third series of offense as Reed scored on a 23-yard touchdown run. Reed got two points for the Tigers on a conversion run and Caruthersville led 8-7 after one quarter.
NMCC scored the lone touchdown of the second quarter at 7:59 as sophomore quarterback Leslie Williams rolled out of the pocket and threw a perfect pass on the run to an open Tommy Rowe for a 59-yard touchdown pass. NMCC tacked on two points as Williams scored on a quarterback keeper on the conversion. The Eagles led 15-8 at the half.
Williams was thought to be an option-type quarterback with great speed and instincts, but he showed on Friday night that he can beat you with his arm as well. Williams threw for 126 yards on three completions and a touchdown.
"He can put it in the air if we want to," said Pixley. "He is effective on rollouts and our receivers did a good job of slipping by the defensive backs to get open."
At the outset of the second half, the Tigers gained some momentum as Creekmore hooked up with a diving Rashad Fields in the end zone for a 33-
yard pass play. After the PAT, Caruthersville tied the score at 15.
NMCC took command of the third quarter as Williams and Printice Willis scored on separate 8-yard runs for the Eagles. On the Williams run, NMCC faked the extra point and Williams scored the two-point conversion as he out-ran the Tiger defenders to the corner of the end zone.
The Eagles kicked the extra point after the Willis run and led 30-15 heading into the fourth quarter.
"The turnovers killed us tonight and we got too far behind but our players didn't quit," said Gerling.
Caruthersville did bounce back in the fourth as Creekmore got hot and hit Jason Tate for a 20-yard touchdown reception. The Tigers scored two on a Fields run cutting the Eagles lead to 30-23 with 7:31 left in the game.
The Tigers defense stepped up on the next NMCC possession with 5:00 and held the Eagles on their own 45-yard line.
Laterrance Newsom booted a 41-yard punt under pressure and put Caruthersville back deep in their own territory at 4:31 left in the game.
The Tigers marched down the field and set up the conversion that came up inches short.
Willis had an excellent overall game as he rushed for 73 yards on 15 carries and tied for the Eagles' lead in tackles with nine. In addition, Willis recorded a sack for a loss of 15 yards and intercepted a pass and returned it for 31 yards.
McIntosh led NMCC in rushing with 79 yards and Williams chipped in with 34 yards on 10 carries. Rowe, Newsom and Reggie Cole each had a reception good for 59, 42 and 25 yards, respectively.
For the Tigers, the second leading rusher in the area, Reed, did not disappoint as he carried the football 27 times for 194 yards. Zach Ayers was next in rushing for Caruthersville as he ran for 38 yards.
Creekmore did not start the game for the Tigers as he had some family issues earlier in the week that kept him out of some practices according to Gerling.
Caruthersville went with sophomore Jake VanAusdall who played most of the first quarter and completed two passes for 17 yards and carried the football two times for six yards.
Creekmore did play most of the game starting late in the first quarter and completed nine passes for 126 yards with two touchdown passes and an interception.
Fields had a good day receiving as he caught six passes for 90 yards and a touchdown. Tate caught three passes for 60 yards and a touchdown for the Tigers.
Besides Willis' nine tackles for the Eagles, Newsom and Woody Smelser each got nine tackles on the night. Rowe and T.J. Bevly each had eight tackles on the night and McIntosh helped out with seven tackles.
The Eagles D-line played an outstanding game as L.T. Sutton had six tackles and a sack good for a 10-yard loss. Patrick Guest recorded two sacks good for a loss of 12 yards combined.
On the goal line play, Pixley credited Smelser, Guest and Brad Colbert as the run-stuffers who clogged the middle for NMCC.
"The defense worked extremely hard tonight," said Pixley. "We did have some missed coverages but our kids didn't stop working and it paid off."
Aaron Borders led the Tigers in tackling at his linebacker position with 10 tackles on the night. Defensive lineman Joe Mixon had six tackles as Ayers, T. VanAusdall and Mikey Lack contributed five tackles. Fields had an interception for Caruthersville and D-lineman Michael Lewis recorded a sack good for a five yard loss.
Gerling is still optimistic about his team's chances this season.
"We still have the goal of district champs," said Gerling. "But there is no doubt this loss is tough but our kids will bounce back."
Pixley is riding high after the win and thinks his team is in prime position.
"We played a good team tonight and the game could have gone either way," said Pixley. "This was high school football at its best and this puts us in the driver's seat in the SEMO conference. But we are supposed to be at the top of the conference. There is no pressure, we just start from square one every week."
Both NMCC (3-2) and Caruthersville (2-3) are at home next week as the Eagles will entertain the Sikeston Bulldogs and the Tigers welcome Earle, Ark. for their homecoming game. Kickoff in both games are set for 7 p.m.

Elfie started following Overheating Streetka?
Elfie posted a topic in Ford KA / StreetKA ClubI've had my 54 plate Streetka for 18 months, recently I have noticed the fan seems to be kicking in alot after only short journeys usually when idling at the lights and the like. Checked the coolant level and it's fine, no obvious leaks or need to top up. Plugged in OBD tonight and the engine temp is running at 95 degrees as soon as the engine is turned on. Fan kicks in at 100 degrees which doesn't take long to reach..... Do Streetka's run on the hot side or do I need to investigate further? No error codes showed on OBD. Would a coolent flush make and difference?
Elfie posted a topic in Ford KA / StreetKA ClubRecently purchased a 05 Streetka. This week I seem to be having issues getting it into reverse gear.....it doesn't grind or clunk, it just won't move backwards when in put in reverse.... Previous car was an 02 Ka which never had this issue. Suggestions as to what it may be? I fear this Streetka will bleed money......:-(

Lung cancer is very common and affects approximately 150,000 adults on a yearly basis in the United States of America. Widely diagnosed, it can be treated with a number of herbs that are easily found in herbal food stores across the country.
But before one starts consuming these herbs, one must understand the possible side effects and potential drug interactions from a physician. Also, for best results it is best to stop smoking nicotine as this is one of the main causes for lung cancer in men and women.
Herbal Remedies for Treating Lung Cancer
There are innumerable herbs that can get rid of lung cancer symptoms:
Cat's Claw
Grown in parts of Central andSouth America, it is an herb that is known to effectively treat lung cancer. Also known as Uncaria tomentosa, it is has been widely used by healers and physicians for centuries and can treat other health disorders including arthritis and supports the health of the lung and the kidney.
The herb is effective in dealing with such diseases mainly because the compounds of the herb promotes and also improves the immune system which effectively helps in the treatment of lung cancer. To minimize any side effects, one must consult a cancer specialist and understand the possible side effects and the dosage quantity.
Also known as Astragalus membranaceus, it is perennial herb that is grown in parts of Asia such as China,Korea, and Mongolia. The most effective part of the herb is its root which is used medicinally by physicians to treat a number health problems including lung cancer. Astragalus possesses elements that modulates the immune system and also works as an anti-tumor property that can effectively boost the effectiveness of lung cancer treatments such as chemotherapy.
Another popular herb to effectively treat lung cancer, skullcap is also known as Scutellaria barbata.

To make an effective medicinal remedy, one can use the leaves and root that can be ingested by the patient.
Green Tea
Known for its exclusive antioxidant properties called the catechins, a cup of green tea can alleviate lung cancer symptoms by preventing the DNA damage that leads to lung cancer. Most physicians recommend daily consumption of green tea that inhibits lung tumor growth.
Particularly Asian ginseng is known to protect the lungs against cancer symptoms. Though the herb does not kill the cancer cells, ginseng blocks the reproduction of cancer cells which effectively curbs the growth and spread of cancer. If one is considering consumption of ginseng, taking a supplement is a great choice; one can also chop and stir fry the herbs that can be used as a flavor for soups and pastas.
Milk Thistle
Also known as Silybum marianum, milk thistle is one of the natural herbs that treat lung and liver cancer effectively. Grown in parts of the Mediterranean region, once can easily that has been used for centuries to help treat numerous health problems, especially lung and liver ailments.

State Makes Final Push To Locate Homeowners for a Piece of Federal Mortgage Settlement
Published: Wednesday, January 16, 2013 at 11:55 p.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, January 16, 2013 at 11:55 p.m.
TALLAHASSEE | Time is running out for tens of thousands of Floridians who may be eligible for claim payments as part of a national settlement with five major lenders.
"We want every borrower who may be eligible for a cash payment under the national settlement to submit a claim."
People who lost their homes to foreclosure from 2008 to 2011 have until Friday to file a claim. The settlement applies to loans that were serviced by Bank of America, Wells Fargo, JP Morgan Chase, Citi or GMAC/Ally.
Florida has been one of the states hit hardest by the foreclosure crisis and recession. But so far, less than half of the estimated 167,000 people in Florida eligible for claim payments have responded to mail notices.
That has prompted Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi to hire a company to make phone calls over the next two days to former homeowners. The state plans to spend up to $187,000 on the effort.
"We want every borrower who may be eligible for a cash payment under the national settlement to submit a claim," Bondi said in a statement Wednesday.
Some critics, however, have wondered how aggressive the state has been in trying to find those who have lost their homes up until this time.
Matthew Weidner, a St. Petersburg lawyer who represents homeowners involved in foreclosure cases, said as far as he knows, no one reached out to defense lawyers or even judges who handle foreclosure cases.
"Both are a rich source of claims," Weidner said.
The claim payments won't go out until the middle of this year and depending on the number of people who actually apply, the final amount going out won't be that much. A Bondi spokeswoman said the average payment is expected to be $840.
The five major lenders last year reached a $25 billion settlement with attorneys general across the nation to end investigations over foreclosure abuses. Of that total, an estimated $8 billion is available to help homeowners in Florida including $170 million in payments to people who lost their homes to foreclosure.
The state also is directly receiving $334 million under the settlement. A legislative panel is expected today to approve spending the first $60 million.
The money will provide counseling to homeowners dealing with foreclosure and default and help the state's court system deal with foreclosure cases. More than half of the money — $35 million — will go a program run by the Florida Housing Financing Corporation to assist first-time homebuyers, including providing them with down payment assistance.

Everything was perfect. House nice and clean.
But you need a better Bus/Tube description.
Iam sure i will come back.
The price was ok for London but the room is very smal, no wardrobe and the mirror on the ground. Not recommended
Unbelievable! After our booking, we received a long e-mail saying we have to pick up the keys by ourselves with different steps to perform. We arrived at noon in the room and the cleaning was not performed. Nobody welcome us and we had to call to get the cleaning. We needed to go out in the town and come back later. The room was very small and stinking. The common areas of the house was quite clean but we heard some strange noises during the night (people entrying in the house or cooking) at 4, 5 in the morning or late in the evening. Very Strange... As well the one stop from London Bridge is actually 10-15 min walking to take the train (no underground).
The room is nice and clean.I love it.
The only problem is the idea of getting in without the host.In fact to get the key is too complicated.I could have loved to see Sidney at least on the first day.
At first I found it very difficult to understand the meaning of Key fob until he explained it to me through telephone.
I believe Sidney is a good guy.
The apartment where we stayed was really close to Lambeth North tube station and to the Imperial War Museum. From our window we could also see one of the tower of the Houses of Parliament!
Overall, our experience was good: central area, buses and tube at hand, recently renewed flat.
We just noticed that the bed sheets were not really clean and that there was dust in the room - my other two friends suffer of dust allergy and they wuote a few problems at night.
The cleanliness of the bathroom was also a bit poor, but it was due to other people sleeping in the apartment, who would shower and not clean the shower box, nor put the soaking bathroom rug on the radiator in order to dry it.
The kitchen and the toilet were always clean, on the other hand.
Sidney was very kind and helpful. We did not meet her (or him?), but we had a stupid problem with the lock of our room door, I texted a message and obtained an immediate reply.
If I will ever need to book a staying in London, I think I will choose again a place rented by Sidney!
The apartment is as shown and has two bedrooms, a lounge (2 more people can sleep there), a kitchen and a bathroom. It was clean and comfortable and the area was very quiet. It is near to the centre and easy to be in the touristic spots. A good stay for a few days in London. Recommended!
Very recommendable place: clean and peaceful. Near station and good bus links. All as Sidney described. Good Price, good cleanliness, baths and kitchen cleaned daily. The bed was comfortable. The wifi was fast. We will come back.
Sidney is a wonderful host! The apartment is lovely and quiet, located on the banks of the Thames River and perfectly served by public transport. The kitchen is fully equipped so we were able to make dinner at home. There was was also a TV and a really good internet connection. Sidney gave us all the information we needed and was really helpful during our stay. I highly recommend the apartment.
The room was simple, but clean. When we stayed the other rooms were not occupied, so we had the apartment to ourselves. Sidney always gave good informations and instructions before we arrived. We often seen the cleaner in the morning, who was always friendly. We found that getting to the centre on train was fast. We also used the 24 hour night bus to get home late at night. The price was fantastic!
Absolutely lovely apartment and host. Good communication before we arrived and non intrusive contact if needed during the stay. The apartment was basic but immaculate, warm and had everything we needed. The neighbourhood was well facilitated with metro, train and bus access very close. We were just a few stops from all the sights. Really good location. Would completely recommend everything about this place. Sidney was charming, nothing too much trouble. Value for money without question!

by William Styron
Darkness Visible is a reworking of an article that the author of Sophie's Choice originally published in Vanity Fair magazine in 1989. Although he has expanded it, the work seems either woefully incomplete or, at almost 100 pages, more than you would want to know about Styron's history of melancholia.
It's not that depression is an uninteresting topic. The problem is that writers seem to have the same difficulty doctors do in defining depression and its causes. That a writer as talented as Styron cannot really explain how depression feels says more about the condition than it does about his attempt to describe it.
Styron tries. In one inspired passage, he decides that the word "depression" is inadequate. "Depression," he tells us, "is a noun with a bland tonality and lacking any magisterial presence, used indifferently to describe an economic decline or a rut in the ground, a true wimp of a word for such a major illness." A better choice, he says, would be "brainstorm" because one experiences "a veritable howling tempest in the brain." Most of the book is more historical than evocative: Styron tells us about other famous people who've suffered from depression (actress Jean Seberg and her novelist husband Romain Gary, Albert Camus, Abbie Hoffman) and about how society does not always view the condition as the disease it is. He indulges in shrink-bashing, calling his group-therapy leader "an odiously smug young shrink, with a spade-shaped dark beard (der junge Freud?)" and art therapy "organized infantilism." As these judgments are in contrast to the melancholy descriptions that come earlier, perhaps we're meant to see that Styron's condition has improved; he is no longer the traumatized, passive patient, but again the detached journalist/observer.
It appears that one of our finest writers is well again and may soon get back to doing what he does best: writing fiction. (Random House, $15.95)

Washington -- Mayors usually come to Washington to ask the federal government for money, but now many are asking for help with gun control, too.
"I'm trying to leverage this issue, not because of what happened in Newtown, but because economic development in Hartford depends on whether we can control gun violence," said Mayor Pedro Segarra.
Hartford's mayor said Harvard economist Edward Glaeser told him "if you can't get your crime reduced, you are not going to succeed."
While Connecticut's legislature is considering toughening the state's gun laws, Segarra said a comprehensive, federal approach is needed to prevent an influx of guns from other states. He's also looking for more federal money to hire local cops.
As Connecticut's chairman of Mayors Against Illegal Guns, Segarra said he met Friday with New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg, a longtime gun control advocate.
In a speech Friday, Bloomberg urged the nation's mayors to pressure Congress to approve a package of gun control proposals released by President Barack Obama this week.
"We need to tell our members of Congress that they've got to stand up for sensible gun laws, and if they do that, we will stand up for them, and if they don't we will stand up for whoever runs against them," Bloomberg said. "The NRA says, 'You don't support us, we're going to make you lose your job. We're going to support your opponent.' Well, we can do exactly the same thing.'"
Connecticut has sent a healthy delegation to the winter meeting of the Conference of Mayors this week.
There are 10 Connecticut mayors registered at the conference, as many as there are from New Jersey -- a state that's more than twice as large -- and more than there are from Massachusetts, which sent only seven to the event.
Besides gun violence, a top issue is immigration, New Haven Mayor John DeStefano Jr. said.
The mayors are also seeking help from the federal government on education and community development issues.
"Financial issues also drive a lot of interest," DeStefano said. "But we're more concerned whether Congress will actually get something done."
Vice President Joe Biden spoke to the mayors Thursday and Connecticut Gov. Dannel Malloy plans to address them Saturday.
Mayors Marcia LeClerc of East Hartford; Michael Tetreau of Fairfield; Richard Moccia of Norwalk; Mark Lauretti of Shelton; Michael Pavia of Stamford; John Harkins of Stratford; Timothy Herbst of Trumbull and Neil O'Leary of Waterbury also registered for the conference.

Official Press Release
ORANGE, CA -- 21 September, 2004 -- The world's only "made for TV
super-team" makes its much-requested return this December in Todd Nauck's
And, in a bit of real life imitating art, creator Nauck himself will be
appearing on television in late November, on the PAX game show "On the
In WILDGUARD: CASTING CALL, readers had the opportunity to choose a member
of the team from a large pool of heroes. They chose Freezerburn, who joined
the four other "winners" from the book: Red Rover, Ignacia, Snapback and
Lily Hammer. WILDGUARD: FIRE POWER follows the five survivors as they
attempt to prove their worth as heroes, under the leadership of
producer/superhero/superstar Four.
As you might expect, things don't go as smoothly as planned.
"One of the four pre-selected characters, Ignacia, is a hero with flame
based powers," explains Nauck. "The readers voted in Freezerburn who has ice
AND fire powers. So now we have TWO fire powered heroes on a FIVE member
team. Some say this makes the team unique. Some say it makes one of the
characters redundant. The scrutiny may prove too much for one character."
WILDGUARD: FIRE POWER also features a back-up story starring the hero who
finished sixth in the original reader voting. In "Where Are They Now?,"
Nauck and artists Sean Galloway and Tim Kane follow Little Miss Sunshine
back to her Florida hometown as she investigates the disappearances of local
college students.
As for the creator's own television debut, the Todd Nauck episode of "On the
Cover," a pop culture game show broadcast weekdays on the PAX network, will
air Wednesday, November 24. Naturally, Nauck worked in a plug for WILDGUARD
while on the show.
"I love pop culture and watching game shows," says Nauck "So getting to
participate on a new show all about celebrities was right up my alley. And
when the host asked about my work in comics, I took this opportunity to pimp
WILDGUARD. So tune in on November 24th and catch the fun! Check your local
listings for time and channel..."
Image Executive Director Eric Stephenson thinks WILDGUARD is a good example
of the new breed of superhero comic that Image is working to bring to
"I've had the pleasure to watch Todd Nauck develop from his early first
steps on THE NEW MEN to the polished professional he's become," says
Stephenson. "And WILDGUARD is Todd's chance to really display everything
he's learned over the years as a writer and artist. As with books like
INVINCIBLE, ULTRA and NOBLE CAUSES, Todd's book is a totally fresh approach
to the superhero genre, and its success has proven once again that readers
are ready for something that really stands out from the crowd."
Image Comics is a comics and graphic novels publisher formed in 1992 by a
collective of best-selling artists. Since that time, Image has gone on to
become one of the largest comics publishers in the United States. There are
currently four partners in Image Comics (Erik Larsen, Todd McFarlane, Marc
Silvestri and Jim Valentino), and Image is currently divided into three
major houses (Todd McFarlane Productions, Top Cow Productions and Image
Central). Image comics and graphic novels cover nearly every genre,
sub-genre and style imaginable, offering science fiction, romance, horror,
crime fiction, historical fiction, humor and more by the finest artists and
writers working in the medium today.

When power leads man toward arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the areas of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of his existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses, for art establishes the basic human truths which must serve as the touchstone of our judgement.

Occupy Spirit Spreads From Wall Street To Oil Conference
By Isabel Ordonez
The energy world's own version of Davos, being held in Houston, is attracting its own version of the anti-Davos movement as well. With a live pig.
The attendance of some of the globe's top energy executives — including Exxon Mobil Corp.'s Rex Tillerson and Royal Dutch Shell PLC's Peter Voser — at the IHS CERA Week energy conference became a good opportunity for a local group, Good Jobs Great Houston, to raise their voice across the fancy hotel where the conclave is held. In addition to the live pig, there were several people in pig costumes, supposed to represent the top 1%.
Sophie Lucas, a spokeswoman for the group which gathered some 80 protesters, says they want the "world's wealthiest oil tycoons and energy companies to pay their fair share of taxes."
To make their point clear, some demonstrators held portraits of Tillerson and Voser. A man with a speakerphone was shouting, and encouraging others to shout, "welcome to Houston, pay your taxes."
It's rare in a city like Houston–whose raison d'etre seems to be devoted to the pursuit of oil wealth – to see an event like this, but it seems to underscore that the fire sparked by the Occupy Wall Street movement also has a home here.
The protests come in the context of a bid by the U.S. Administration to reduce tax breaks for oil companies (as well as talk about tax increases for the wealthy to help pay for the deficit). While protesters say an increase in taxes would help generate jobs, oil executives say higher taxes will force them to go elsewhere and slow down the development of the U.S. energy patch.

The Text your ex program by Micahel Fiore has been a renowned program to help ex lovers rekindle the fire of flame in their relationship. Many people who undergo a breakup don't always want that. And this program gives these star crossed lovers a second chance at destiny together.
The program is sold for 49.99 on the clickbank marketplace and has been the subject of some controversy despite the wild success the program has received from the feedback from it's internal member base.
This rejection of the program comes standard from those who do not believe in second chances with an ex and out right reject the possibility or even the benefits of doing so. None the less this program is not for them.
This program is for those who sincerely wish to get back with a lost love one.
Spanning over several hours of content, the program itself is more about self-rejuvenation and healing than odd manipulation techniques that would only make the situation more difficult in the long run.
Since a program of this nature may at first glance appear to come off as a scam, you can rest assured that the content is provided and delivered in professional fashion by a national relationship and dating expert named Michale Fiore.
Michael has been heavily featured on internet, radio and even television shows world-wide showcasing his "texting techniques" and helping lost couples find their way during the process. He has received immense positive feedback regarding his methods and has even written several books on the subject for those who wish to take his dating knowledge one step further.
However, with a 49.99 dollar price tag it's understandable to be a bit skeptical.
That is why I always recommend to do further research on the topic from an authority that can give you the low down on this texting program.
So if you sincerely wish to get back with an ex, check out this link here for more information on Mike's "Text Your Ex Back" program: http://resparkhisheart.org/michael-fiores-text-ex-back-2-0-program-review/
