the local church.
Westpoint 2016 is themed "Truth to
tell". We'll be focusing on biblical truth, a double-edged sword
for the church to wield in the advance of the gospel. My hope and
desire for this Westpoint is to equip the church in both
proclaiming the wonderful truth of the gospel as well as equipping
believers to know and contend for the truth in our confused
It is standing on this truth that we
will press into our 20:20 vision for Commission. This is to see a
doubling of the number of Commission churches proclaiming the truth

Company is very deceiving by luring people consumers with free package consolidation and repackaging. Firstly, when order arrives at warehouse. Customers is not informed and online directory is not updated. Chcked with courier service tracking number and it has been sitting in the warehouse for 2 to 4 days. Only to be constantly remnded they update online. Secondly, once they lost a parcel they take no effort in assisting you.after 2 weeks still no concrete news. Thirdly, takes very long for items to be delivered to warehouse as warehouse open late. Lastly, very bad customer service.

My parents have a clear XBox fitted with an Xecuter 3 chip which has been working great for months now. However yesterday they turned on the XBox, the Xecuter light didn't light up, and then a green screen came up mentioning about a bios with options such as "Load BIOS from ..." and then gave options including HDD, disc, internet and another choice they can't remember. These options stayed on the screen for approx five seconds before the XBox shut down.
Now when they attempt to turn the XBox, it wont boot into the chip's mode. When you turn the chip's mode on, it'll switch on, the XBox turns on for a split second, then shuts down. It repeats this procedure, then on the third time it'll stay powered on, but with no LED on showing the modchip is on and the eject light continues to flash.
They can still boot into the standard XBox mode, which leads me to believe its a problem with the modchip somewhere. The XBox hasn't been moved since it was last working, so the chip hasn't been knocked at all. Any ideas would be appreciated!

reflash the chip with either the same bios or a different one. i recommend the X2 5035.
Posted 16 September 2006 - 05:49 PM
Cheers, I'll give that a try. Not flashed a bios before so what's the easiest guide to follow?
Posted 16 September 2006 - 05:59 PM
You're using an x3 so flash x3 3944 or something like that. There are guides for this in the xecuter modchip section of these forums.
Posted 16 September 2006 - 07:40 PM
u can use any bios! i just recommened the X2 5035. it can do alot more than most bioses.

u can use any bios! i just recommened the X2 5035. it can do alot more than most bioses.
Hahahahahahah im sorry to tell you, but an x3 bios can do 10 times as much as any x2 bios or any bios for that matter.
The chip does not need to be reflashed, The chip is either making a bad connection to the lpc or your parents have switched the bank select to the wrong bank causing it not to boot. Make sure it is set to the correct bank which should be bank 1 unless it was flashed to a different bank.
r one oh seven, the latest x3 bios is 3294, 3944 is the oldest xbox kernel.

I arrived to my next appointment and everything went great. The staff was friendly, nice, and helpful. During 2005-2010 I was in college, college was 1 hour and 10 minutes away from the Vanderveer center. Being that I lived so far away it was very hard for me to schedule appointments with them. I tried to make it in when I could and a couple of times was turned away for being too tan. Well this went on from 2006-2008. After 2008 I got very busy with final years in school and working full time I didn't go at all. However I did know that I had not even used half of my treatments.
Recently I made an appointment to get my laser treatment, knowing I had a few more. My appointment was in September 2012 and met with the tech, everything went great. I explained to her, in one of my previous sessions I had a treatment and the tech missed more than half my hair. At the time this mishaps happened I called the Vanderveer center and notified them. They wanted me to come in and show them, however I live almost 3 hr round trip from the business. When I came in the next time they said they couldn't do anything because I didn't come in. My mom paid good money for this stuff and they were not willing to offer anything to compensate a botched session. After explaining this to the tech in 2012 she apologized and proceeded with the laser treatment. After she was finished she went to make notes in my file. She commented that my file is old and very messy. She couldn't tell how many treatments I had previously had and what all they have done. Her and I looked through the file together trying to find the dates. We couldn't piece it together so I told her how many I had previously.
Two days ago I called to make an appointment so I could get back on track for my treatments. The receptionist told me I had for filled my packages. I am 100% sure I didn't do all of my packages!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I requested for them to review my file and get back to me. After not hearing from them, I called them to Hear the verdict. The lady then explained to me they reviewed my file and I have for filled my package and they gave me two free underarm treatments. This is bogus!!! I requested for them to send me all of the medical records and the chicken scratch papers I saw in my file that I had previously reviewed.
Please note: if you have this upset of a customer, why wouldn't you want to try and make the customer happy??!! (This is the second time, they could've followed the philosophy of customer service and your customers are what pays your bills)
That same day they were very prompt and getting me all the material I requested. I did mention BBB in the convo, which I think played a roll into the promptness of getting those records. After reviewing my file/history and piecing everything together. Their records do "indicate" I used all of my treatments. However I know for fact I hadn't even got to half my treatments until recently. Every time they didn't treat me they would leave notes in the file. Ex: customer to tan, didn't treat today or only treated Brazilian today.
I lived an almost three hours round trip away. When I made my appointment it was to get all three areas treated. Makes sense right? Why go in there to treat just one area, just so I come back and do another area. Well in my medical records on my brazilian treatment chart it has three random dates with limited notes saying 0 tan. However when you compare it to my underarms chart the random dates don't match up saying I received am underarm treatment that day.
So review, there was two different occasions where they couldn't do Brazilian but could do underarms. One time they could do Brazilian but not underarms. ALL of these occasions were listed in the file the reason why they only treated one area and not the other. Every time I came in the would make notes in my file. After receiving copies of my file I had random dates that showed I got a couple treatments on my Brazilian but not my underarm. These also had no notes as to why i was only treated in one area. I believe the medical records where tampered with! I am 100% sure I didn't do all my treatments. When I compared all of the ones they left notes on it matched up to my memory 4/6 treatments brazilan and 5/6 treatments underarm. Also my last visit with them was 2008. In my 2008 visit the tech wrote in my file, "patient still has two treatments left in each area" the next visit was in 2012. Which would mean, their records indicate I atleast have 1 more treatment for each area.
I am so frustrated with this company. I called Vanderveer center back the same day of reviewing my files. Conviently she was in a meeting, I asked for a call back and I am still waiting to hear from them.
My advice, lots of places offer these services. do your research! There are a lot of complaints from customers all over the web. I even looked on BBB site, they had a couple there as well. Hopefully this message gets to atleast one person. This message may save you money and a headache!
I spoke to my mother about this incident and she said she also had a mishaps with payment, she knows she paid and they claimed she didn't. My mother said because of the mishaps with her, she will never use them again either.

Skill Level Beginner
I showed you the Find/Change feature in an earlier chapter, but I focused just on finding and changing text throughout your document, or even across multiple documents. Now I want to take it farther and talk about adding text formatting to the mix. For example, let's say I want to search for every instance of this word Duration followed by a colon, but only where it's in this particular font. I'll click in here, look up in the Control panel, and see that it's Myriad Pro Condensed. I'll go to the Edit menu, and choose Find/Change, and I'm going to type the text in here, Duration, colon, space.
But I only want it to be in that one font, right? That's where the Find Format field comes in. If you don't see Find Format down at the bottom here, you need to click on the More Options button. See how that works, More Options or Fewer Options. I figured you paid for it; you better get those options. Go ahead and click on that and then click anywhere inside this field. That opens the Find/Format Settings dialog box. Move this out of the way so I can see what I'm doing. And I'm going to look for only that font. So I'll go to Basic Character Formats, and type in Myriad.
You see that I only had to type Myr. It guessed the rest for me. That's helpful. And I want it to be in Condensed. Right now it's set to Regular, so I'll select that and type Con for it to guess Condensed. Now I'm going to leave the rest of this blank. If it's blanked, it means ignore it. I don't care what size it is. What leading, tracking, color, anything else, just that fact that it's Myriad Pro Condensed. I'll click OK and you can see that it shows up here in the Find Format area. Now what do I want to do with it? I want to replace it with a different font.
So I'm going to click in Change Format, and I'll go to the Basic Character Formats here. Once again, move this out of the way, and I'm going to change it to Bold Condensed. So I'll type Bol here, and it guesses Bold Condensed. All right, I'm going to click OK, and we'll see that this is going to find the word Duration with a colon after it and the space after it, only in this font here, and it's going to change the font style to Bold Condensed. Now, I'm leaving the Change to field blank, why? Well, the way Find/Change works is if the Change to field is blank, but the Change Format field is filled in, then InDesign leaves the text just the way it is.
It won't replace it. It won't delete it. It just leaves it the way it is. So that's helpful here. I don't have to retype Duration down here. On other hand, if this was blank, if I'd not filled in the Change Format area, and this was blank up here, then it means delete the word Duration. So that's not what I want to do. I'm going to make sure Change Format is here. It is, and let's try it out. I'll click Change All, and it goes through and it finds three replacements in my document, and you see that it changed the formatting for me. Consistency and efficiency, that's what it's all about. Changing text formatting with Find/Change ensures consistency throughout a document.
However, it's not necessarily the most efficient method in this case. After all, here I would have to type in cost per person and do a Find/Change, and then Find/Change on Departure Dates, and so on. Later on, in the chapter on styles, I'm going to show you a far more efficient way of handling this kind of Find/Change automatically.

I want to add to the more than 400 complaints here regarding Rent-a-center business practices. I had read Rip-off report and decided to take a risk, what a nightmare THAT has been. I have never been a customer but have been in and out of this store in the past. My credit is bad because of Medical debt I could not pay. In today's business commerce a computer is a necessity.
I went to Rent-a-Center and asked if my payments could be made online and the employees had no clue. I had to go to the coporate site to find online bill pay options. I made my first two payments on time for the rental computer, and when the third one was due my child became ill. I decided I would pay one week late because of the financial strain of her illness.
I went to my local Rent-a-Center Friday to explain in person why I was late, and offered to write a check, it was near close. The manager there said I could not leave, and he would not except a check, he needed cash or debit card right now or he was picking up the computer. I was only five days late. I told the manager because he was cancelling my contract and refusing to except my method of payment, then I would pay him on Monday when the bank reopens, and meanwhile return the computer at that time. He then accused me of trying to write a bad check and steal his equipment! I told him I would call corporate due to the accusation. Corporate has been very helpful and I spoke with the District Manager, telling him that this Manager in Blue Springs was a jerk and I planned to return the computer to another store. I wanted to return it to a different store so the Jerk couldn't say I had damaged something. The district manager agreed.
Meanwhile, the store manager sent his wolves to my home the following morning, they were knocking so loud and hard it was jarring the windows. They repeatedly rang my doorbell although they knew the computer was being returned Monday. I asked the district manager if he heard the commotion through the phone and he did. The Jerks kept knocking for a full five minutes! It was so loud I could barely hear myself talk to the District Manager on the phone. I told the district manager I didn't trust the Blue Springs store would accept the returned laptop without causing further problems. I told the District Manager I was having the computer inspected before I returned it.
Meanwhile, the people from Rent-a-Center would not leave the porch! My husband opened the door and they stood on my property stating that I attempted check fraud! They said it was check fraud because I refuse to use my debit card in the store, making the erroneous assumption that I only had a debit card that links to my checking account! I have American Express!
My child was home and became very upset at the situation. My husband had to yell at them and say he was calling the cops for them to leave! I filed a police report, called the corporate office and reread my contract. The contract clearly states the only consequence of CHOOSING to be late with a payment is that a $5.00 late fee would be charged, NOT harrassment and accusations of fraud! The contract says nothing about refusing to accept checks. Further it was my FIRST late payment!
I am a working and college educated professional who fell into some hard times and ended up renting from Rent-A-Center, I understand they take risky accounts but then again, if you treat all your customers like criminals then HOW can you expect to have a decent reputation? Further ALL items from Rent-A-Center have a 400 percent markup! My computer retails for $400 and my contract says if I complete the lease I would have paid $1,636.00 for an Acer Aspire laptop! I had no intention of leasing for more than a month and already had it for four weeks, I can buy the computer with cash at Walmart!
I wanted to let people know that the manager of this store, like many other stores from Rent-a-Center, has bad business practices and uses a late payment as an excuse to reposess the merchandise and resell it, STEALING the money a consumer has invested in the final product. Further, the RAC contract does NOT disclose how late someone can be before reposession, this lack of disclosure encourages bad business practices. RAC states that if the leased computers are taken they don't even have to give the same one back! If you don't backup the files before you return it to RAC you just lost all your data!
I have never done business with these loons and now I know why. I hope this complaint helps someone else. I found the RAC corporate Consumer's line EXTREMELY helpful. RAC corporate phone number is: (800)422-8186

Hilda Rankin, who recently passed away at age 106, started taking care of seniors at a nursing home at an age when many people decide to move into one. She was about 83 when she began volunteering at a home in Florissant to talk with the lonelier residents. Some residents were unable to feed themselves and she wanted to help. But as a volunteer, she wasn't allowed to. So she enrolled in classes to train as a state-certified nurse assistant…To read this article, please visit: www.stltoday.com/news/local/obituaries/hilda-rankin-worked-at-nursing-home-until-she-was-over/article_8fc9aa5f-7b73-50c1-816b-21aced2ddaf0.html.

The Missouri Department of Transportation will make improvements to the signal lights at the intersection of Routes 7 and 133 in Richland, after approval of a contract today by the Missouri Highways and Transportation Commission.
Under a contract awarded to Reinhold Electric, Inc. of Jefferson City, the current signal lights will be taken down and placed on poles across the intersection.
"Placing the lights on poles will make the intersection safer for those who pass through," said Missouri Department of Transportation Project Manager Gidget Mott.
The contract for the work totals $97,903. The new signals are expected to be installed in the spring and summer of 2014, which could cause periodic traffic delays.
For more information about this project or other transportation-related matters, please call 1-888-ASK-MoDOT (275-6636) or visit www.modot.org/central.

I have been a Platium Secretary for a while, and I feel as though I should have an advisor handling my club. Especially since I am making them money and we as secretries do not get paid any money for anything. We earn 10% of each order to spend on there merchandise only.
They recently, about a month or so ago had a newsletter that came out, that we secretaires could use our rewards to pay on our open payments books. I started using my rewards to pay on my books, then last Friday, 28 May 04, was told that I can no longer use my rewards in which I earned as a secretary. They also want me now to no longer email my payments in. Mind you they waited until I was out in the street collecting, and emailed me.
By emailing the payments all I needed was the account number, routing number, the financieal instituation address, the amount of the check, and the check number, so therefore, I did not have to have the check physically in my possession. I have clients that just phone in checks numbers because it is more convienent for both of us, they are out of town, and less time consuming as far as travel.
I set and type up all clients concerns, and payments by books, and stubs, then email it in and my advisor Donna Brezel of Team 4 would call me faithly every Monday to discuss the email, and apply the payments. Well I did my normal email, emailed it in, but did not receive a phone call. When finally got a response after leaving numerous messages for Donna to return my call on 1 Jun 04, that she no longer handled my club. She didn't give me a courtesy call, she get get on the phone to tell me this, just had whomever answered the phone tell me this.
I immidiately called Ms. Kathy King, whom is the Senior Vice President of Customer Service. She was out of her office so her associate Carol, stated that she would have someone call me. Well its another day, and no one has called, no one has applied the clients or my money to our accounts.

Editorial Reviews
From the reviews:
"This book was written to convey both the 'beauty and utility of probability.' The author achieves this by providing a mixture of theory and application. To include so many different and interesting applications of probability, the author chose to minimize the number of proofs. Instead, he provides examples and written explanations…The unique aspect of this text is that the author presents applications not normally included in probability texts. There are new and very useful applications of probability that would usually be found in journal articles or in a number of different textbooks." Technometrics, May 2004
"…Pretty applications in computer science and genetics strengthen the overall message of this book, namely to give applied probability the attention it deserves." Short Book Reviews of the International Statistical Institute, April 2004
"In his Preface, he worries that the pursuit of mathematical rigor discourages students of science, particularly of biology, from learning the powerful tools that modern probability theory puts at their disposal. This book is an attempt to remedy that…Professor Lange's book is certainly a pleasure to read, and it is written in a clear style using standard probabilistic notation." Journal of the American Statistical Association, June 2004
"This book is intended for graduate students in applied mathematics, biostatistics, computational biology, computer science, physics and statistics. … The book presents a mixture of theory and applications, with emphasis on mathematical modeling and computational techniques. It contains a number of examples from the biological sciences. … All chapters have exercises and hints are provided for some of the difficult problems. … Students should find this book stimulating, refreshing and highly useful." (R. Subramanian, Mathematical Reviews, 2004a)
"The book would be a delight to use. … Lange has produced an enjoyable, highly readable book … . I found much of the material of interest … . All of the chapters come with exercises some of them challenging. … a course based on this material would be a joy." (Jeffrey J. Hunter, New Zealand Mathematical Society Newsletter, Issue 89, December, 2003)
"Lange makes every possible effort to keep a delicate balance between theory and applications. He presents the material in a clear and informative manner that will appeal to all interested readers … . Lange offers numerous illustrative examples from biological sciences and challenging chapter end problems. This interesting and useful book presents clearly the applicability of probabilistic tools to solve problems in different disciplines. Summing Up: Recommended. Researchers and graduate students in genetics, mathematics, physics, biostatistics, computer science, and statistics." (D.V. Chopra, CHOICE, September, 2003)
"The author tries to offer to the scientific community at large an introduction to some of the most important aspects of applied probability. From the table of contents, it is clear that the author has chosen a very personal approach … . this choice illustrates the beauty, utility and relevance of probabilistic thinking in a variety of scientific areas. In particular, pretty applications in computer science and genetics strengthen the overall message of this book, namely to give applied probability the attention it deserves." (J.L. Teugels, Short Book Reviews, Vol. 24 (1), 2004)

Kim Singer came into my neighbor's yard and took my dog. She never asked any questions or talked to anyone. She just let herself in and stole my dog while I was at the hospital with my daughter. I have never met this woman before in my life. I asked my neighbors to watch my dog while I went to the hospital with my daughter and they agreed.

Chicken run Hernandez, a poor mans Owen
and there was me thinking he scored against the champions chelsea at wembley on the biggest stage against the biggest club, and we have a goner remarking after their saviour caramac missed the easiest chance he will ever get, and finally scored after playing nearly an hour against 1 centre half after b,pool had given up, and a chelsea fan who says he is slight and not ready, yet the chelsea back 4 conceded against him, short memory there my my my, and after all i said we would beat you.............i told you so and you were nowhere to be seen for 8 days,
i thought hernandez linked well, looked lively, got into good positions but berba and co went wide when he made the runs, but the players will get to know that, mutv guests remarked on his intelligent play and felt he done well, as did sky commentators, as did i, so slayers remarks mean diddly, after all this is the guy who bet his mortgage last year we would not be in the top 4............................still laughingSort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies

I'm Network+ Security+ and A+ Certified IT Professional for a living and these guys are so incompetent that it blows me away! Their support is bad, the documentation on their site is incomplete / lacking. It is hard to find a way to contact them and for every little issue they force you to pay 200 dollars to get a solution or resolution. Or even an answer to a simple question. Unacceptable!!
I'm scrapping this gateway system and building one from scratch. It is junk. Junk components junk support junk company.
They told me the video card in THEIR system was not factory installed hardware.
"this is to inform you that the expertise with Gateway Technical support is limited to factory installed hardware. Therefore in order to assist you with the best possible solution we have a dedicated team called "Pay for Support" who are specialists in providing resolution on out of warranty issues."
This is a lie. It came installed in the computer. Morons. The quote above is from them. On the next reply:
"Thank you for contacting Gateway. I'll be happy to assist you.
I apologize for the inconvenience happened. I understand the situation, however we will not recommend or support to connect dual monitors and we are not providing any cables for that."
Their next reply concludes they did not even check with the manufacturer of THEIR video card installed stock in THEIR system would work or not work with dual video.
Save yourself a headache. Buy an HP, a Dell ANYTHING but a gateway.

Eight years ago, I lived in a house that we called Project Hollywood. A group of the four best pickup artists in the world-- and me-- rented out Dean Martin's old house on Sunset Blvd. in Los Angeles. This was a big deal in the pickup community, and it spawned clones all over the world. One such copycat was Project San Francisco, six hours away from LA. Mystery and I drove up there one day to check it out.
We were both immediately stunned with how well Project San Francisco was run. We were shown to our guest beds, given guest sets of keys, and guest towels. The whole house was clean and well organized. Our house, on the other hand, was chaotic. It was usually a mess and no one really took responsibility for anything beyond their own bedrooms. Generally it was only clean if someone had a girl coming over that he wanted to impress-- and then he cleaned it himself.
The tour through the house continued, and I commented on how clean everything was. In response, I heard the magic words: "Yeah, we try to keep it a nine out of ten at all times".
What an idea! Who would ever admit that they tried to complete something only to ninety percent? Eight years later, I'm still in love with the idea of nine out of ten.
Not everything in life needs to be perfect. For some things, like big goals, eventual perfection is a good goal, but the individual tasks that make up progress towards that goal should often be completed to a nine out of ten. My blog is important to me, but I don't think I've ever written a blog post that was a ten out of ten. I shoot for a nine, and of course fall short quite often. But what would happen if I said "ten or bust"? Well, for one, there wouldn't be many blog posts here. I might be capable of writing a ten, but it would probably take me ten hours. I can write a nine in half an hour or less. If I had to spend ten hours on a single post, I would probably post once or twice a month instead of eight times. What's better for readers-- eight nines or one or two tens? I guess it's subjective, but I'd take the nines from anyone I read.
SETT will some day be a ten out of ten. I won't quit until I get it there. But even when working on SETT, my goal is always a nine. Take page load performance. Right now the front page of Tynan.com loads in under a second, which is faster than 90% of web sites (and 7x faster than the blog of the founder of a certain well-known blogging platform). Could I get it to a ten-- faster than 99% of sites? Yeah, I could. I know how. In one day I got us from faster than 50% of sites-- average-- to 90%. That's a great return on time. If I spent a week or so, I could get it to 99%. If I do that, I'll have to give up seven days where I could have gotten other aspects of SETT to a nine. Not worth it.
A nine is excellent in anyone's eyes, and a body of work composed of nines seems superhuman. When you think about it-- most people you admire are probably putting out work that's a nine out of ten. Dr. Dre puts out 10/10, but he takes ten years to put out a single album. As a listener, I'd rather have ten albums that are all a 9/10. Jay-Z puts out albums that are 9/10, and a lot of them.
The nine methodology is also more conducive to learning. Put out a nine, get the feedback, work on the next nine. A ten takes so long that you don't get a good feedback cycle. With the path of nines, you improve very quickly, making each 90% of your potential better than the previous 90% of your potential.
A sum of nines can also make a ten. Most products that people put out have major weaknesses that detract severely from the overall product. A product whose components are all nines, though, is extremely rare. I'd say that many Apple products are like this. Not perfect, but so good in so many areas, that in many people's eyes, they are tens. When you shoot for nines in every area, you have time to get there. When you shoot for tens, you either never release, or you release something made up of tens and sevens.
So that next chunk of work? Shoot for a nine and move on to the next.

Picture is Osaka castle. I went there at night last year and was pretty surprised how many people just hang out there at night. Was talking with a friend about Japan earlier today, so it's on my mind (more than usual...).
Going to three or four countries before the year ends... so hopefully I'll have some good photos for future posts. Believe it or not, I haven't left the country in 2012!!
Tynan, another great way to encapsulate what you're writing about is this:
"Perfectionists are very imperfect with their time."
There's a cost to everything. Prioritizing based on the ROI off those costs is the key.
10/10 reminds me of Donald Knuth books. He perfects his books and writes about a sentence a day. It's impressive but we also wonder if he's going to finish "The Art of Programming" within his lifetime. He even had to write his own text layout software and perfect it so that his books could look the way he wanted them to.
When I think I need a 10/10 it means I don't start. Sometimes I fail to realise that not starting is a 0/10 by default.
This is reminds me of an old saying used in some schools I have taught at.
"Shoot for the Moon, and fall among the Stars."
Good point.. I strive for 10/10 on projects and it kills me. I realize I'm spending so much time having something not only perfect, but visually perfect. It's difficult to not notice the tiny, little flaws in your work and it really kind of drags you down and has you focusing more on remedying the flaw than working on the project overall.
I think you might be interested in reading about Vilfredo Pareto http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vilfredo_Pareto
Speaking of how fast SETT webpages load - yes, your home page loads quickly. But clicking to previous pages and on the titles of blog posts takes over ten seconds, and honestly I've never stuck around long enough to see if they ever did load. Important to note is that the url is already there, but the SETT page says it's loading, with the little dot dot dot signal. I just select the url and hit enter, and it loads lightning fast, but if this is happening to other readers, I'd say you have something that negates the 9 of your fast homepage load. I'm running Chrome on OS X, for what it's worth.
Thank you, Tynan. So important. I run my own business and suffered through the first four years of trying to put out tens. Now I realize that when I am working with young readers and writers, if they get to see my "nine" turn into a "ten" - for example, a word I left out of a sentence - they see revision. The little guys don't learn well when everything comes to them in a perfect state. They think it's magic! I appreciate your posts. ~Tammy
"What's better for readers-- eight nines or one or two tens? I guess it's subjective, but I'd take the nines from anyone I read." Says the person who wrote a post about not reading any blogs.
On the internet quantity isn't an issue. I unsubscribe from blogs because they simply write too many posts. Subscribing to more people to increase the quantity isn't an issue.
Another good example would be Stephen King. Even though I've only read his book "On Writing" to help with my writing skill; he doesn't attempt to perfect his books. He writes them quickly, edits them, and churns them out. They get to the good enough point or the 9 out 10. That's why he is a millionaire.
I like to bet. For those of you who have read the story about how I was a professional gambler, this is obvious. What I don't like to do is exercise. At one point in my life, these two activities joined to provide an interesting story.
I have a friend named Hayden. He likes to bet me. For a while we had a running string of bets, and I was down overall because I failed to get 10x his score in a Tony Hawk competition. At one point I was one of the top 10 Tony Hawk players in the world. That lasted for about 5 minutes until someone from Japan beat my score.
Hayden and I sat across from my kitchen table.
My coed Futsal team wrapped up the winter session on Saturday with a 1-5 loss. We went the entire session without winning a game, 0-6-1 was our record. Not many people like to lose, and I consider myself a gracious loser, always respecting the opponent. Having said that, a win-less season is very difficult to accept.
The coed team I put together was a combination of my son's eight year old and my daughter's nine year old teams. Both teams finished in the top half of their divisions this fall. All of the players are pretty good for their age, some better than average. So I wouldn't claim we were out talented.
It was our first foray into indoor Futsal and none of the kids have had any experience with the heavier, low bounce ball, on the smaller, compact field. I think the fast pace of the game also surprised them and me.
It was seemed like every team in our division had played before. They were quicker to respond to the action. They dribbled less and passed more, some actually executed set plays. They shot on goal at every opportunity. More than once I overheard coaches say after the game, "See you at practice."

2nd Test...
0 Was brutal! I barely got out alive! Any other horror stories?0Oct 10, '11 by dee78Yep, same experience today. I walked out feeling horrible, one of the worst tests I've ever taken. But I ended up doing much better than I expected. I guess my "slightly educated" guess was right most of the time. Maybe by the end of the semester I will figure out how to answer these questions.

Friday leftovers: Marek Mazanec vs. Kent Simpson
A little bit of this and a little bit of that following Milwaukee's 8-3 victory over Rockford Friday ...
WANNA GO? There was almost a goalie fight between Rockford's Kent Simpson and Milwaukee's Marek Mazanec at center ice after the scrum following Bobby Shea's hit on Simon Moser.
At first they stood and looked at each other, then LaBarbera motioned to Mazanec to meet in the neutral zone. They skated toward each other and were about to square off when the officials stepped in.
"I was laughing the whole time," Mazanec said. "I just tried to have some fun and make some fun for the people."
Teammate Scott Darling was in a fight earlier this season. And Mazanec?
"Never before," Mazanec said.
NICE DEBUT: Calle Jarnkrok made his Milwaukee debut and finished with two goals on three shots for a +1 rating.
"Calle Jarnkrok is a quality player," Milwaukee coach Dean Evason said. "You get a player like that when you give up a player like David Legwand."
Nashville traded Legwand to Detroit, and Jarnkrok was sent from Grand Rapids to Milwaukee as a result.
"At first, I was kind of shocked," Jarnkrok said. "I was taking my pre-game nap. I had like seven calls on my phone."
Jarnkrok showed his versatility late in the game, when several of his teammates were already ejected or in the penalty box.
"He played a little defense at the end, just to see if he could do everything for us," Evason said. "We only had two or three 'D' so we said, 'go and play 'D.' He's a real good player, both ends of the rink. He killed penalties, took faceoffs, played on the PP, five on five he's sound. We're excited to have him here."
AROUND THE RINK: Milwaukee outshot Rockford, 35-25, including 14-5 in the final period ... The IceHogs' three-game win streak against the Admirals came to an end ... Milwaukee allowed three power-play goals after going 15 for 15 on the penalty kill the previous four games ... A victory tonight in Rockford would give the Admirals their first four-game winning streak since Oct. 26-Nov. 3 ... Colton Sissons has 22 goals, which is seven more than anyone else on the team ... The team is eighth in the Western Conference, two points behind Rochester and two points ahead of Oklahoma City.

Well, I finally finished! And boy what a fiasco! After finishing the first hat, I went on to Luigi. It ended up too shallow to slouch over TWICE but I finally got it. Then the Mario hat looked more shallow so I decided to re-try it. BIG MISTAKE! I ripped it out to the decreases and then couldn't find my leftover yarn to add the depth I wanted and couldn't find a store that sold it anywhere. So...the day before Halloween I had to go buy a completely different yarn and start ALL OVER. Literally almost knitted for 24 hours straight to get it done in time for trick-or-treating. OUCH! I had to cut a few rows off the bill just so I could finish in time. I also was able to block the bill on the green one but not the red one. Oh, well...at least I know I can do it. LOL, probably without the pattern now I've done it so many times

Adrien Broner became a world champion at a third different weight after a split-decision victory over Paulie Malignaggi in New York handed him the WBA welterweight title. Two judges scored the bout 117-111 and 115-113 in favor of the unbeaten 23-year-old, with the other handing Malignaggi a 115-113 win.
The verdict saw Broner, who has also held the WBC world title at lightweight and WBO strap at super-featherweight, take home the gold after stepping up two weight divisions for the contest. Malignaggi battled gamely at Barclays Center but was ultimately outworked by his 23-year-old opponent.
Golden Boy Promotions CEO Richard Schaefer said some people were not that happy with from Broner's performance because Malignaggi performed much better than expected.
"Paulie came into this fight as an 11-1 underdog and I think people expected that fight to play out as an 11-1 underdog kind of fight. Paulie came to fight with a lot of heart and he wouldn't go. I think Adrien's punches, and Bernard Hopkins summed it up very well, were the more affective punches. He was able to control the fight and persuade the judges that it was going his way. Most experts at ringside and I don't consider myself one of them, had it 117-111 for Adrien Broner. So I really don't think that we should cry that people didn't get this or there was some injustice. I think Paulie can walk out of the Barclays Center with his head held high because he came to fight," Schaefer said.
[QUOTE=Apple Mac Stud;13497906]It's not that he doesn't possess these tools but against light punching Malignaggi he never had to use footwork. [U]I promise you if he were to fight Marcos Maidas or Lucas Matthysse he would use better defense.[/U] Broner…Comment by handwraps on 06-23-2013

Broner fought the way a guy jumping up two weight divisions fights....cautiously. I can't stand Broner, but after the first 4 rounds, he was in complete control of the fight. Paulie threw alot, but it was tough to give him…Post a Comment - View More User Comments (18)

The Kansas wheat harvest may be one of the worst on record — and the loss doesn't just hurt Kansas, according to a Kansas State University expert.
"The rains came too late to benefit the wheat production, so we may have our lowest wheat harvest on record," said Mary Knapp, service climatologist in the university's agronomy department.
That isn't just disappointing for Kansas farmers, but could affect other food availability and the overall economy. Drought conditions lead to poor pasture conditions and hay production, which then impacts the number of cattle ranchers can graze, Knapp said.
"Then it starts trickling into the community because if you have wheat farmers with very low production, they most likely also received very low income," Knapp said. "That farmer is not going to invest in machine upgrades or make as many purchases in the community. That will cause the economy to drag, which may result in a ripple effect that can be far reaching."
Knapp says it takes about as long to recover from a drought as it did to reach drought status, so if it has been three years in the making, it will take three years or more to recover from the drought effects. And even getting more rain may not improve drought status.
"You can have a drought punctuated by a flood and still be in a drought," Knapp said. "If the rain comes too quickly, it doesn't have a beneficial component."
