So THIS is 'Cranky 2.0'??
Since this is a holiday weekend in the US, I'll spend a couple of hours checking things out - but I'm not optimistic.
Oh, and Bats says HAI to the old-timers.

Not sure how constructive it
Not sure how constructive it will be.
Main problem is that it is too compartmentalized. One of the great things about the old forums was that everything was in one place.
Secondly, most of the posts are being made by the jokers who caused me to leave in the first place. Nothing you can do about it I'm sure, but when 70% of the posts are made by Rajah or one of his pseudonyms, I just yawn and move on.
Third (and again it's something you can't do anything about I suppose) it is still a nest of fascistic leftists. I'm tired of listening to the claims of 'tolerance' that only extends to approved opinions. The hypocrisy and general snarkiness is not something I like to be around.
So - I guess I'll be moving on.
Good luck in keeping this shibboleth afloat.

Don't like this place? Well, you only have yourself to blame for not participating. We've heard little from the other side. Your "pal" X-Man only posted once and Wilson only a few times.
Many have moved on. Some I miss alot and some not at all. Guess which one are you.

Well, Rajah's post on Ann Coulter made me chuckle
Or as we say on the Internets, LOL. Mrs. Coaster laughed too.
Now we both feel really really bad about that. Thanks a lot.

Um, I stopped participating in the first place because of jokers like you and all of the leftist intolerance. Try and keep up.

And it's unlikely you ever shall, with your prediliction for snarkiness and ridicule at any opinion contrary to yours.

You really DON'T pay attention. X-an was never a 'pal' and I have NO idea who 'Wilson' even is.

Unlike you, I have a pretty good idea.

MonkeyCling, by Fascistic leftists I assume you mean: intolerant
We really haven't had that since RBB left this site a long time ago. The vast majority of people posting here have shown at least some tolerance for my libertarian ramblings over the last 10+ years here in Crankyland.

I have this thing I sometimes do when there's a poster I dislike
I ignore their posts.
And if you knew anything about me, you'd know it's rare that I actually dislike a person. What I dislike are posts that bore me. Detecting a pattern of such from a particular poster gets them ignored. Life is too freakin' short.
- Login to post comments
There are few posters I ignore
Most of it was the You People etc and the Twinkies or whatever.
I've never read an entire Aron post
I like Oddball but sometimes he'd get tangled up with all the spammers.
Now X-Man is a different matter. You can ignore him but then you run the risk of missing the rare moments he's actually funny.
The same thing could be said of me. Yeah, you have to wade through all that silliness for that rare moment....
Oh who am I kidding? It's all garbage!

Well, have fun kiddies. I only stopped by because it was the seventh anniversary of when Bats and I first met during the Invasion of Keanuville - and the oldtimers know how Crankyland looms in our 'legend'.
I was curious if Crankyland had survived Jason's demise and the move to a new format.
It hasn't.
So - I shall be shuffling along. Have fun poking amongst the ruins.

For someone who doesn't like the left...
...you certainly haven't offered up much of an opinion in terms of why you support the right. The only folks that have offered an opinion don't offer up serious ones, but only use their supposed right-wing position as an excuse to troll the board, instead of offering up actual reasons we should support Bush.
It's no wonder those opinions are laughed at, considering they're only there as troll-bait to begin with.

I could do individual posts , but I feeling lazy.
Seriously folks...this is Monkey King. Whom some, not all , have known for many years. Many more than I. How shocked, floored I was to see such a response towards the likes of such an exceptional human being. Questioning his character, motives, morality? How is it that after all this time you are oblivious to who it is you speak so poorly about/to.
Mundo, you question why he doesn't offer up actual reasons we should support Bush? Because he is an open hearted, wise person. There is no gain in plunging your opinions down someones throat. I love the ballet....should I express in detail why you should as well? All you lefties,like myself, spewing opinions onto this board, hardly lefties guys. Vicar has more acceptance than thee. Standing strong in ones convictions, this is a bad thing?
BTW he was right, as usual, this place will be buried deeper than Keanuville in no time. Why you all want to know is this place dead now with the change in formatting? Because along with the change in formating, came a change in the folks that made this place great. Those with opinions, wit, character and charm. The ones that would make us want to read their next post. Very few remain. You know which ones you are. And how odd that what a mixed bunch you are. Different and unique from each other.

On Bush, or why we hate the guy. Well one reason of many....
Standing strong in ones convictions, this is a bad thing?
One of the root causes for Bush's poor performance in office was his confusing steadfastness of purpose with true leadership. This characteristic was shared with at least two people who have held the office in the past: Herbert Hoover and James Buchanan. Never again should we have someone in that office who makes up his mind and then refuses to be bothered by the facts. The Decider should have weighed all sides of an issue before coming to a decision, ya think? The trouble is, that even if one is smart, it does take a modicum of intellectual curiosity to fully examine an issue. Maybe Laura went out and bought him some for Christmas this year, but unfortunately for us all, it's eight years too late.

And being "lefty" during the last 8 years...
...was as easy as being wet during monsoon season. You almost had no choice if you had half a brain.
Now that it is over I will remain (small l) liberal, but my feeling is that the inmates might be running the asylum now that Nurse Ratchet has been ousted.

Coaster...Man...Hearing Ya...Feeling ya.
I could bore you with my conspiracy theories on how that little shrub first got in office; hence giving him ability to spread his roots, poison, far enough throughout to be voted in a second time. We all know it, it's not original, so I'll spare all of us.
However, I have to say that from my perspective there is an admirable quality in standing strong in ones convictions and that being strong in ones convictions does not necessarily have anything to do with leadership abilities. It shows strength of character, standing strong in who you are based on your beliefs. Bush has no character. Therefore there is no comparison between my statement and him.
And now for the obvious humour:
Doubt he got that gift from Laura this Christmas. I'm pretty sure that shopping trip would be as successful as a blind person shopping for the perfect pink sweater.
Cheers Mate.

I believe you have the attack part the other way around
No one was stopping Monkey King from expressing his opinion in the past. That is of course if the opinions he was talking about were posted under the Monkey King handle. Yes, he has a bug up his ass about me and the reason why I can't fathom. But I'll say the mature thing "He started it! Yeah, it was him!"
Apparently keeping this place running was important to some people and I'm not about to boo Jazzdrive's efforts. Hey, it's just a movie review site and people still come here just for that. I'm sorry we can't keep it up to the high standards of the glory days.

Aw, thanks, Freep
Hope everyone found time for at least one moment of genuine joy over the holiday so far.... mine was teaching my youngest great-niece to fist-bump, among my most-all-Republican family.
All kudos to you, jazzie, for what you accomplished, but even if it were as easy to create multiple characters here as it was in Cranky's heyday, the frisson is long gone, for moi anyway, and I know, that's nobody's loss but my own. Each Cranky habitue was attuned to a particular wavelength that brought out his/her/its best - not everyone operated on the same said frequency (thus, for example, the basement phenomenon), but it was a large enough group that you could find kindred geeks who shared a regrettable fondness for puns or flames or role-playing or nanaimo bars, and on we'd go. That critical mass of posters was gone long before Jason threw in the bar towel.
No one in my RL circle (except hubby) believes me when I say that I wrote my very best work on Cranky's (though hey, my second-best recently won the magazine here a district-level CASE award for best university publication), but if sheer pleasure and facility for the writer are the deciders, there's no doubt whatsoever. That's why I like to reread some of it every so often when facing the creative blockage that's more the case these days as I finally grew up profession-wise.
And where IS Mr. Wood these days? Haven't heard a nasal peep since he pulled out of a stage play b/c of health problems....

I've often said, this place is what YOU make it...
...if, in your opinion, the place isn't good, then post something worthwhile and make it good. Simply leaving makes the place worse, and it's nobody's fault but your own.
Not talking about those who go and get lives and/or whose lives are so busy the move on to other things. I'm talking about the people who moan about the good ol'days but don't contribute much to make the place what it was.
The place thrives on YOU the poster. If you want it to be a certain way, then YOU have to make it be a certain way.
As for Monkeyking, I've never heard his actual reasons for being a Bush supporter. I've heard he's a veteran, and I'd love to know what his reasons are for supporting Bush as I have the utmost respect for most of the veterans, I'd like to hear his opinion.

Kathy Freston's Veganist and the Vegan Diet on Oprah TodayOle & Shaina Olmanson
Kathy Freston has a new book out, Veganist, which inspired Oprah to go "vegan" for a week. That's right. Oprah and members of her Harpo staff took a One-Week Vegan Challenge and will be cutting out all animal products and eating a vegan diet.
Oprah invited Michael Pollan, author of In Defense of Food and The Omnivore's Dilemma onto her show today along with Kathy Freston and Lisa Ling to do a tour of a meat processing plant. It was exactly what you'd expect from Food, Inc., but on the Oprah Show.
The members of the Harpo staff gave their impressions on the diet, which ranged from complete hatred to completely embracing it. At one point Kathy Freston compared a staff member's "junk food diet" to an addiction. Still, others have completely made the change, and Oprah herself is embracing the popular Meatless Mondays movement.
I've talked before about veganism and the vegan diet with Alicia Silverstone's The Kind Diet. To be clear, there are ethical vegans where avoiding all animal products is an ethical choice, and there are those who do it for dietary reasons only. That said, we're looking at the vegan diet, not the vegan lifestyle here in Kathy Freston's new book Veganist and that is what was also explored on today's show.
Considering the Vegan Diet? Here are a few links from Kathy Freston to help!

I have looked at the firmware packet and to me it seams to be encryptet

Is there any telnet access, serial port or any other interesting

A Success Story from Across the Pond
Although 1% for the Planet is based in a small town in central Vermont, we have made an impact internationally over and over again. We love to hear stories or about specific events that have taken place because of a 1% FTP connection! We recently found out that one of our business members, Frugi, donated £8232 to the Cornwall Wildlife Trust. Over the last few years, they have given over £20,000 to the Trust!
Frugi is an organic baby and children's clothing company based in Helston, Cornwall, England. They have always wanted to make a positive difference in the community and in their customer's lives. They make comfortable, high quality clothing that children love to wear, and have always recognized the importance of supporting local environmental causes. This money has allowed for the Trust to continue supporting environmental initiatives in the Cornwall area. Their mission is to maintain biodiversity in nature and to have everyone in the community enjoy and appreciate its beauty. In honor of this large donation, the Cornwall Wildlife Trust hosted an event, at which seventy people showed up to thank Frugi for their generosity!

We are proud and thankful for the work and support that both groups have given since making their commitment to 1%!

Reviews for Canopy
I have been a board member at Canopy for a year now and hands-down this is one of the best nonprofits that I have worked with so far. The staff are amazing and dedicated to Canopy's mission and they do an exceptional job of stretching every dollar donated to the maximum extent possible. The staff work really hard and go the extra mile to make every project a success. Their Teen Urban Foresters program has been phenomenal in cultivating new youth leaders who start playing a very active role in the community and in being great stewards care of the environment at such an early age. Canopy's tree planting and tree care educational programs have been instrumental in ensuring healthy trees in the communities that they serve. Great programs, Exceptional people, Strong focus on the mission leads to Healthy Trees, Healthy Communities!!
Canopy has been a great opportunity for me, not only to get more involved with my community as a volunteer in high school, but also as an intern in college. Canopy is a force of good that makes all contributors feel recognized and appreciated, while simultaneously realizing significant change. Canopy has influenced me for seeing the change that an engaged community can accomplish, and has also provided terrific experience working in the nonprofit world as I start my career.
I have been a planting leader with Canopy for almost three years. They have strong partnerships with the local school districts and cities, which make them an especially successful organization. There are some exceptionally strong staff members and very committed board members.
I have been planting with Canopy for some years, but not for some time until this past weekend. In the interim, the organization has become stronger, the staff has gotten even professional, and the volunteers more energized. And many of those were young folks from neighboring schools willing to come out on a Saturday morning, rolling up their sleeves and contributing their efforts to improve our urban canopy. Thank you Canopy.
Canopy is made up of an amazing group of dedicated professionals who know how to plant trees where they are most needed while also educating students and volunteers how to be stewards of the environment. Canopy is also successful at pulling together a variety of groups to leverage resources to maximize their positive impact. Over the last two decades, they have done a lot to improve our urban forest.
I have loved working with Canopy. Their dedicated and skilled volunteers, and their ready partnerships with other organizations, and their follow-through will benefit our Head Start center's children and families for years to come. Though it took over a year to receive all the approvals needed, and jump through all of the bureaucratic hoops of a federal contractor, Canopy was able to plant over 10 trees and rescue several others that had been previously planted incorrectly. It warms my heart so much to think that the children and families and teachers at Laurel will, for years to come, enjoy the trees, have some shade, learn from their seasonal changes and the gifts of fruit they will bring.

With a relatively small, well-organized staff, lots of volunteers, a can-do attitude, strong partners and a clear vision, Canopy has shown how successful it can be in changing neighborhoods and cities like Palo Alto and East Palo Alto. They've been at it almost twenty years and have enriched those cities with close to 4,000 trees, not to mention the countless hours of advocacy. Yes, I am a huge fan of Canopy.
I have volunteered with Canopy off and on for nearly 15 years and it all started with a class on trees at Stanford taught by Drew Oman with a guest speaker from Canopy. My budding love of trees leafed and grew because of the wonderful people I met. I love and value the organization for so many reasons: the people who run Canopy, the community and families we touch, the education and fun programs provided, and for all that I have learned. Thank you, Cristy Carlson Osborne
I went to the Trees of Stanford event sponsored by Canopy. This included a panel discussion of tree experts as well as a tree walk of part of the Stanford campus. I am so glad I went - I learned a lot and met a lot of other people passionate about trees. Canopy does a great job at bringing events like this to the public and promoting education about trees. With Canopy's efforts we can continue to build a tree-valuing culture in Palo Alto and beyond. Thanks Canopy!

Canopy works closely with community to invest in urban forestry. I have been to a number of volunteering events in the past 5 years. All the events are very organized and run by a friendly staff. The volunteers I have met are friendly and very hard working. It's a great place to connect with the community and give back. This is an exemplary organization where donations are so effectively converted into lasting impact in our community.

It was apparent that from the second NFTYites stepped foot into the synagogue the CABI community was rejuvenated The Jews in southwestern Idaho are, for the most part, not teenagers. During the Saturday morning service led by NW RCVP Sarah Freyd, and NW Songleader Michael Fishman, the congregation got on their feet, smiling, and seemingly refreshed. I have never seen a community as impacted and genuinely happy to see so many teenagers storming through their doors.

We can't even know for certain THAT's the case.
We can't even know for certain THAT's the case.
Very quickly....
"...More recently, it has been discovered that cholesterol is needed to activate a protein called Sonic Hedgehog (SHH) which plays a central role in neural patterning, mood regulation, and cerebral development5. This could be why individuals with cholesterol deficiency are more prone to aggressive behavior, lack of attention, increased number of infections, and motor difficulty6. Cholesterol is essential for the proper functioning of serotonin receptors which are responsible for good mood and oxytocin receptors needed for good social interactions and interpersonal bonding7..."
Chris Masterjohn:
"...This concept, that when cholesterol made in the brain proves insufficient to meet the brains needs the brain can compensate by taking cholesterol from the blood, goes a long way in explaining whyall of the mental problems suffered by Smith-Lemli-Opitz Syndrome (SLOS) patients improve with dietary cholesterol. In fact, the FDA has even approved a pharmaceutical-grade cholesterol supplement to improve the retardation, hyperactivity, irritability, poor attention span, and tendency toward aggressive and self-injuring behavior seen in these children..."
Chris Masterjohn on cholesterol
Parental Testimonials:
"...Dramatic decrease in aggression
Cholesterol raised my sons levels from 117 to 159. We have to give 5 capsules a day to maintain that cholesterol level but we had a dramatic decrease in his aggression at school overnight when we started it. His teachers and therapists all asked us what we were doing. It was amazing for us.
~ Frank, Oklahoma City, OK..."
"...Head banging stopped
My son is significantly less aggressive when on just one capsule of cholesterol. He stopped head banging and being aggressive towards others; in addition, after a couple of months on the product, he started to spell for the first time. I stopped giving it for one week and his aggressiveness came back, so I am a believer.
~ Mary, Atlanta, GA..."
Bottom line, it is not just ONE factor. Once you mix a poor diet with an underlying condition/disorder/illness/disease and add to that with a cocktail of drugs.....the symptoms can become full blown and aggravated.
We need to look a little deeper and focus a little more attention to people like Adam. Maybe the mainstream treatment and lifestyle recommendations are extremely lacking when it comes to people like Adam.

Art From the Archives
The 2nd Floor Reference Department is home to a new art installation created by students from the Photography and Sculpture departments within the College of Arts & Humanities. "Archival Evolution: Art from the Archives" depicts the evolution of formats used to archive newspapers over the years. The main component of the exhibit is the actual film taken from hundreds of discarded rolls of what used to be the only source for accessing older copies of newspaper, magazine, or journal articles. Most of these sources are now available online through databases to which the Library subscribes. Included in the installation is a backdrop of copies of news clippings taken from the microfilm along with pages from original newspapers. Superimposed on to several of these images are the artistic creations of the students themselves. Overseen by Art Department Lecturer Marilyn Carren, students spent several months conceiving the design and determining the best possible methods to incorporate the materials. The resulting work includes a tree of knowledge from which information is obtained and transformed into multiple shapes. The pièce de résistance is the oversized female statue draped in microfilm fashioned into early 20th century-style clothing. In her hand is a smartphone used to take a selfie. The intent is to describe how archival materials have evolved as has the access to and availability of information.

Curanderismo Collection
In July 2012, the College of Health Sciences and Human Services transferred to the Border Studies Archive curanderismo materials (original source material, including 35mm photographic slides, 16mm moving image film, and cassette and reel-to-reel audio recordings used to create a film, a slide series with an accompanying soundtrack, and a monograph). Curanderismo, or folk healing, involves a trained healer, or curandero(a), who treats a person experiencing physical or spiritual illness. Medical anthropologist Robert Trotter, medical sociologist-anthropologist Juan Antonio Chavira and their assistant researchers produced the curanderismo materials in a project during the late 1970s in South Texas. The project, "Proyecto Comprender" served as a valuable source of information for regional public health and medical professionals who sought to better understand Mexican American concepts of health and illness. We believe that world-wide accessibility to this collection, which has been made possible through digitization funded by the Institute of Museum and Library Services and the Texas State Library and Archives Commission through the 2013-2014 TexTreasures Grant Program, will help the public better understand the growing Hispanic population and their health-related traditions. You can access the entire digital collection through UTPA's library webpage or visit the Border Studies Archive's Traditional Mexican American Folklore webpage to view excerpts of some of the files.

James told an Orange County, Calif. judge that Sunny "acts out, she's more agitated, she has sleeping problems," since Lindemulder was released from a halfway house on June 3 for misdemeanor tax evasion. "The more contact she has with her mom, the more fear she has to sleep in her own room."
James, 41, and Lindemulder are facing off in a trial regarding whether Sunny should be allowed to move to Austin with James. A court-appointed attorney for Sunny testified the move is in the child's best interest.
The motorcycle mogul testified he intends to relocate on July 31 and has already purchased an eight-acre, five-bedroom home "in a very private estate in Texas hill country," about 17 miles from the home of his other ex-wife, Sandra Bullock, who has helped raise Sunny.
Benefits of MovingAside from the problems with her mom, Sunny is doing well, according to James. "She's thriving, doing well in school, she has an amazing relationship with her brother and sister and Sandy," James said. "We're getting to a point where we can live in peace. [Moving to Texas] will only make things better."
James was recently quoted in an online interview saying he wants his kids to maintain a close relationship with Bullock, but hasn't explicitly said that in the trial thus far. He testified that part of the reason he's moving is to help run his custom car shop in Austin.
Asked if being near Bullock was more of a priority for James than his Austin business interests, James's attorney John Schilling told PEOPLE on Tuesday, "I can't place a priority between the two. He's going down there to deal with business issues, but he'd like to get his kids away from the limelight."
James also testified he feels Lindemulder, a recovering addict, has unresolved personal issues and should receive help. "I think she has yet to hit rock bottom and I fear [when she does] it will involve Sunny."
Lindemulder, who says she's been clean and sober for several years, previously testified that she's open to therapy and wants to improve trust and communication with James.

Under FHWA Demonstration Project No. 34, "Cathodic Protection for Reinforced Concrete Bridge Decks," a non-slotted cathodic protection system was installed on the deck of the Yakima River Bridge 24/5, near Yakima, Washington, in the summer of 1985. The project involved repairing the deck, then fastening Raychem premanufactured anodes to the deck to impress current to the top mat rebar. Impressing current through the concrete to the top mat steel prevents further corrosion of the steel. A latex modified concrete overlay was placed over the deck anode. The objective of the demonstration project was to familiarize the Washington State DOT with this new technology. This objective was fulfilled.
Some problem areas with the system were identified during the work: 1. A more positive method of finding electrical grounding locations from the anode to rebar nicks, ties, etc., needs to be developed. Some ties were exposed during the scarifying operation. Perhaps an instrument can be used to supplement visual inspection. 2. An effective technique of allowing concrete trucks to drive on the anode without damaging it needs to be developed. 3. An effective method needs to be developed to locate breaks in the anode as well as shorts. 4. In remote areas, sources of electrical power may not be available. It will be necessary for sources of power, such as solar panels or long-lasting batteries to be developed for this system. 5. Since the project, once it has started, moves along very rapidly, there is very little time for on-the-job training of workers. Workmen should have prior experience at this work.These problems need to be overcome to obtain a better quality product.

We are interested in papers that examine forced migration in the context of Indian partition. Papers that examine the relationship between violence and migration, on the one hand, and nationalism, border-drawing and nation-state building, on the other, are particularly welcome.
World War II involved migration on an unprecedented scale: Poles fleeing both east and west in the face of advancing German and Soviet armies, Stalin's mass deportation of ethnic Germans, and the expulsion and murder of the Jews. But such migration did not end in 1945; on the contrary, it increased and became global. Borders were redrawn within Europe and beyond as colonial regimes withdrew and new states were born. The direct result of these developments was the flight or expulsion of individuals on a previously unimaginable scale.
The conference will explore the processes of flight and expulsion; the underlying political and ideological motives; structural and contingent causes; and perpetrators and victims. It will analyze the political consequences and interdependencies of these mass, forced migrations from a global perspective. We will blend in the construction of collective identities and ideologies of ethnic homogeneity as well as individual experiences of the victims, adaptations to changing cultural circumstances, and aspects of commemoration. Our focus will be on the postwar dynamic processes of expulsion tied to shifting borders and the creation of nation-states.
The Joint Initiative in Germany and European Studies (University of Toronto) and the Institute of Contemporary History Munich-Berlin (Institut für Zeitgeschichte München-Berlin) are the organizers.

Editor's note: Sue Farrar, president of the Randolph County Ministerial Association, asked her friend, the Rev. Jerry Ayers, to submit this column after hearing about a dream he had.
One evening, I opened my Bible and the Lord gave me Ezekiel 40:4: "Son of man, look with your eyes and hear with your ears, and fix (set your heart) on everything I show you; for you, the body of Christ were brought here so that I might show them to you." The Lord also said, "I am calling my prophets to go in and take back what the enemy has stolen." He also said, "There is a river that flows from the City of God and I am turning on the faucet and increasing the flow from Heaven with force."
Could it be that we are seeing the last of the last signs before Jesus appears?
Matthew 24:14 says, "And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come."
For the last several years, we have seen much of Matthew 24 being fulfilled with wars and rumors of wars, earthquakes, famines, pestilences. Now we are watching nations starting to collapse (e.g. Greece), economies throughout the world are being affected. But Jesus said the gospel will go throughout the world, and then the end will come. Recently, we had a pastor friend visit from India, and he shared with us how millions are coming to Christ in the land of India. We are hearing of the same thing happening throughout the world. Those who have been spiritually dry for centuries, who have been worshipping pagan gods and idols, now see truth and are being set free.
As I sat at my desk, praying over a speaking engagement with my Indian pastor friend, I began to ask the Lord to give me something to give to his people in America. It seems that so many are spiritually dry. God gave me a vision of a river, which was flowing everywhere, covering the entire world. It started at the top of the mountains and began to flow through the valleys. As it went, it began to pick up other streams, and then began to pick up rivers. Rivers began to pick up rivers, until it became a large river throughout the world, resembling a flood. This river did not pass anything; it seemed to flow through each home.
I asked the Lord what he was showing me. I began to realize this may be something like the river Ezekiel had seen in Chapter 47: 1-12. Ezekiel saw a river in the last days that would flow from the throne of God. This river went in all directions. It flowed through the dry valleys. Wherever this river went, life began to spring up alongside it. However, this river did not flow through the swamps and marshes. They were given over to salt. God showed me that this represented religion.
The river flowed right past the religious, they were untouched by this crystal clear, healing river. Then I realized that the Lord was showing me that these are the people of the religious sect who chose not to get in to the flow. Therefore, they continued to dry up. I am speaking of establishments that allowed God's Word to get stale and have compromised His truth. They also have contained their faith to a few inside their perimeters, stopping the flow and having no outsource. These were the people who chose not to get involved in God's outpouring. As we know, swamps and marshes are created because there is no direct inlet or outlet to allow the water to continue to flow.
However, God is calling the prophets to go to the swamps and marshes, as Isaiah did in Chapter 6, when the Lord touched Isaiah's lips with a live, hot coal. At first, Isaiah did not feel qualified to work for the Lord, but after receiving this touch from the Lord, he proclaimed, "Here am I Lord, send me." When Isaiah inquired of the Lord how long should he continue to go to these people, the Lord answered him, "Until they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, until the cities are laid waste and without inhabitant." (Verses 10, 11)
As I began to study this, many of the other prophets had seen the same type of river. Joel 3:18 is one of the references that tells us that Joel saw a river flowing through the Valley of Acacias, which means a dry barren place.
Could it be that these visions are the great outpouring that God promises in the last days, just before his return?
In the river that God showed Ezekiel, you could have as much of God's flow that you wanted. Ankle deep, knee deep, waist deep or a river that could not be crossed, water in which one must swim. Could it be that God's flow is beginning to pour out upon this earth? When we see much of the world coming to the Lord by the millions, will we as the American Church get into the flow or will we get into the swamps and marshes? Each person has to make this decision. I also believe that the Lord showed me that there will be much life along this river, which represents his provision, no matter what comes to the earth in the coming years. If we get into His flow, the provision for us will be from Him. Let's step out and get in. I don't want to be passed by.
After sharing this with the church we spoke to, we heard many testimonies of how spiritually dry the people were feeling, yet how God touched their hearts in reminding them it was their choice how deep they wish to get into the flow of His river. May God bless you and may he truly reveal his truth to you personally!

In the middle of summer, school seems so far away on both ends. Which is great when planning beach trips, barbecues, and all fun summer things – plenty of time to do them still! But it's maybe not so great when it comes to the academic backsliding children can experience over summer break. Especially in reading and math. I asked my friend Amy Gast, a parent and elementary school teacher, to share some easy tips on how to integrate education and entertainment in our kids' summer routines.
Here are some ideas she had…
Edie's at an age where she is game for anything with me. Grocery store, airport drop offs, post office lines. She's excited to come along and be my sidekick no matter what's on our errand list. She gets especially excited when we're doing something special with just the two of us. Today we're taking an outing to visit a friend's home in Berkeley called The Farmhouse. It's a large Victorian home that's set up for co-living. There are 17 housemates who all work together to grow food, prepare meals and take care of the property as a kind of family (doesn't that sound so cool? And so Berkeley!). We came prepared with our gardening tools and watering can so we could help too.
Here are some photos of our morning at The Farmhouse if you'd like to see…

HONOLULU (AP) - The Mountain West Conference has suspended Hawaii special teams and safeties coach Chris Demarest one game for inappropriate sideline conduct during a loss to Oregon State on Saturday.
The conference said in a release Tuesday that Demarest is prohibited from coaching during the Rainbow Warriors' next game, which is Sept. 21 at Nevada.
A conference official declined to give details, but the release says Demarest was suspended under a sportsmanship rule that governs obscene gestures and language toward other people during games.
"Chris is a tremendous football coach who coaches with passion and energy," Hawaii coach Norm Chow said in a statement. "This is an extremely unfortunate situation and obviously we will abide with the penalty handed down by the Mountain West."
Hawaii lost 33-14 to Oregon State.

PHILADELPHIA — Eagles head coach Chip Kelly, with general manager Howie Roseman, looked over the roster he inherited and made eight moves over the course of free agency — and none of those addressed what arguably was the weakest unit of the team last season.
So, with the No. 4 pick in the draft — and the hope that luck and injury cannot be as bad as it was last year — the Eagles selected tackle Lane Johnson, out of Oklahoma, to start the transfiguration of the offensive line.
Johnson's selection over any defensive player in the draft, except Dion Jordan, and any skill player, period, showed a couple of things in Kelly's mind.
Obviously, he feels the team needed a major upgrade on a unit that allowed 48 sacks a year ago and watched both quarterbacks — Mike Vick and Nick Foles — get knocked out with injuries. He also felt veteran Todd Herremans, one the team's more versatile linemen, will be better back at guard than he was at tackle.
When the Eagles open training camp next week and the regular season in Washington in less than two months, Kelly would like to see the same five players on the line.
That would be Jason Peters, coming back from a torn Achilles suffered during the 2012 offseason, at left tackle, Evan Mathis, who somehow played all 16 games last season, at left guard, Jason Kelce, back from a torn MCL, at center, Herremans, back from a foot injury, in his fourth different position at right guard, and Johnson at right tackle.
Johnson, one of seven top-10 picks still unsigned, would have to come to terms on a contract, first, but according to sources a prolonged holdout is not going to happen.
That would be the perfect scenario for Kelly, but it doesn't come without questions.
Peters is the key. When he went down before the start of Andy Reid's final year as head coach, it started a ripple effect that the team never overcame.
"He's the key to the whole deal," said a pro scout for another team. "Not just him being healthy, but him playing well. The rest of the line will follow him. Then you got the other thing, too."
The other thing is Peters getting in trouble last month for racing in the street and avoiding arrest. He has yet to face charges or be punished by the league.
"They really need him," another personnel man said of Peters. "When he's right, he's as good as any (offensive linemen) in the league."
Mathis will begin his ninth season out of the University of Alabama, and you can make the argument that his eighth season might have been his best. Kelce did OK as a rookie two years ago in Howard Mudd's finesse system, then injured the knee in the second game of last season and did not return.
"It's going to be interesting to see how he does, both coming back from the injury and in an entirely new system," the personnel man said. "He was ideal for what they did before. Now, it's totally different."
Herremans, a warrior in his eight years with the team, has started games at both tackle spots and at left guard. Now, he's moving to the right guard spot, where he'll be a benefit to the rookie playing next to him.
"I've always liked Herremans," the scout said. "The guy is just a solid player."
There will be a lot on Johnson, the third linemen drafted in a first round dominated by the position. He doesn't have to be a star from the get-go — that would be expecting way too much. But he can't be a liability, either.
The depth isn't very deep, which is one reason the team signed rookie free agent Michael Bamiro, a 6-foot-8, 340-pound rookie out of Stony Brook, on Tuesday. Dennis Kelly, who had to start at right tackle as a rookie last year, will back up on the right side. Former first-round pick Danny Watkins will get one last chance to see if he can be a third guard. Center Dallas Reynolds also had to play last year and didn't open too many eyes. Matt Tennant could win that backup job.

I love kale also. Prefer its flavor to spinach, texture too. It doesn't have some of the bitter tang of mustard greens or turnip greens, but it's my go-to green. I like to cook it with olive oil and simple seasonings, or with a nice splash of heavy cream: the kale doesn't give up the ghost quite the way spinach turns all tissue-y, so it softens but retains its character. The fats, besides being tasty, also aid with delivery of vitamins A, E, and K. So it's a win-win. Sometimes a little white wine finds its way into the creamed kale, which adds a little sweetness.
I do sometimes eat it uncooked, but find that it's better if it's been lightly salted to help it wilt a bit.
Kale chips are easy to make, just make sure to go light on the salt and have the leaves very dry or they won't crisp.

Warp Speed Six Pack
Apart from following a diet made up exclusively of pizza and beer, the worst mistake a man can make when training for abs is clinging to the same old exercises for way too long. Crunches, situps, and planks are fine, but they're not the only tools you need to sharpen your midsection. (Surely you're devastated by the thought of taking a break from planks.) The good news is that adding new ab moves to your workouts won't necessarily add time to them; in fact, we'll show you how to get more variety in your training in even less time than you're used to.
10 Best Moves to Lose Your Love Handles >>>
Your core (the abs and lower-back muscles that work in conjunction with them) is complex. In addition to bending your torso forward, as in a situp, it also
straightens and extends your spine— as well as twisting your torso and hips and stabilizing your body. Unless you train all these functions, you won't develop your core completely. To help you forge the strongest, most defined core possible, we've put together three different circuits of three moves each that work the core from all angles. You'll do the exercises without rest in between, which raises your heart rate and accelerates fat loss— after all, you won't be able to see your abs if they're covered in fat. Just tack these circuits onto the end of your normal workouts.
Perform one of the three circuits (I, II, and III) at the end of each workout. (Use a different circuit each day.) Complete one set of each exercise in sequence, resting one minute after the last one. Repeat once more. After two weeks, increase the number of circuits: In Week 3, perform three circuits; in Week 4, do four circuits; then do five circuits in Week 5.

Solo pro II, Honeybee V2 FP or..
I am completely new to the hobby RC world. I have played around with 2 micro heli toys before. But I really got interested after my girlfriend gave me a 600 size helitoy. It's a monster and I can't fly it indoors. Outside is also no fun since with a little breeze it all over the place.
After some research I found the honey bee fp and the solo pro. I want to start with fp and then move to cp ( eventually). I am located in china so e-flight is not an option, difficult to get.
Nine eagles and esky are easy to get here as wel as the spare parts and upgrades.
I just can't decide which one to get: It's small so I can fly it indoors, but outdoors will be difficult ( in case my girlfriend get tired of the noise).
The honeybee is larger and thus a bit more stable but I can't fly it indoors.
I would like to fly outside but practising might not be a good idea: laowai+
Helicopter= crowd+ practice= danger.
I would like to get some feedback on both helicopters and tips on how to start.

I have owned both. The Solo Pro is mainly an indoors helicopter. It is self stabilizing and is ideal for learning hovering and slow flight. The HBFP is a non-stablizing fixed pitch helicopter. It is actually very difficult to learn to fly on it. There is also a question mark over its future as Esky seemed to have disappeared for over a year and then appeared again.
I would think the Solo Pro is more suitable in your situation. If you are in China, I would consider Walkera as well. Their technology is more advanced than Esky or Nine Eagles. The CB100 is more precise than the Solo Pro and is quite durable as well. The V200D01 and V200D02 flies pretty well and has a good following. Finally, the Genius CP has just come our and it is looking brilliant, although it may be too much for a beginner.

I have ignored walker thus far because I picked up negative fine towards walkera on this forum.
I've looked into the cb100 and I think it's actually quite nice but over twice the price of the solo pro. But the helicopter seems more advanced indeed.
Now I have more options to choose from... Difficult

If you are in China, you have lots of local expertise with Walkera as it dominates the low end market. You have to be very selective about which Walkera model to get. The design of Walkera helis is usually more complicated than than of Eflight and Nine Eagles, which means that more that can go wrong. But design factors aside, there is not really much different in terms of the reliability of the electronics.
The main reason why some people here are so keen on Eflight helis is because of their warranty and parts availability in America. But the situation is completely different overseas, and it is not even sold in China. The Solo Pro is a highly regarded model, but recent models released by Nine Eagles such as the 328 and Solo Pro 180D have been heavily criticized. The Solo Pro will be more crash resistant than the CB100 and so it may be a better option for you.

Bradley Wright Launches a Welcome Assault on Your Eyes [Art]
It's hard to look at Bradley Wright's art and not realize that there are whole comic books out there that pack less story than a single page or panel from his portfolio. That's good for him professionally, though, because he's been paid to make concept art for games such as The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena and Syndicate.What's even more mystifying, as you'll see on Wright's blog and in his deviantART gallery, is that a lot of these sci-fi Ashley-Wood-meets-Tony-Moore-style pieces are "speedpaints." If you happen to be an artist, Wright's work is bound to motivate you to use your time more efficiently.
And even if you don't fancy yourself an artist, the cyborgs, armor and pig astronauts that inhabit Wright's work are bound to make your brain squeal. Have a look at a few of our favorite picks from his archives and let us know what you think below.

WASHINGTON - Karen Capato used the frozen sperm of her deceased husband to conceive twins, but the government denied them Social Security benefits as their father's survivors. Her situation, more common as reproductive technology advances, had a mostly unsympathetic Supreme Court grappling Monday with the definition of "child," inheritance law, and artificial insemination.
The case, Astrue v. Capato, had justices trying to shoehorn a 1930s law that gave Social Security survivor benefits to the dependent "child or legally adopted child" of a person into a modern situation in which a man can bank his sperm for use months or years later to produce a child he will never see.

With all the enticing new plants that hit the garden centers each year, it's hard to know which ones will work best in our gardens. What new releases will prove the hardiest? Or, be the most productive?
One non-profit garden organization that can help narrow the choices is All-America Selections. Every year, the group tests newly developed cultivars of seed-grown bedding plants and vegetables in plots across the country, where conditions in the average home garden have been duplicated. AAS was founded in 1932, and the first AAS winners were announced a year later. After 75 years of annual garden trials, the program continues to be the most well-established international testing organization in North America.
As always, the 2009 AAS winners were judged in side-by-side comparison tests with standard cultivars and selected based on performance. Only those few cultivars that demonstrate unique new characteristics, exceptional productivity and superior garden performance make the All-American Selections list.
So, when it comes to bedding plants and vegetables, All-America Selections winners are considered good choices. That's not to say that every winner will be an outstanding performer in Louisiana, and we may use the plants differently than gardeners in other parts of the country. But they're worth serious consideration. For 2009, a cool-season bedding plant and three vegetables have been named AAS winners. Here they are.
Vibrant viola
Cool-season bedding plants constitute a relatively new AAS category, one that I was glad to see added. The plants are an important gardening component in areas with relatively mild winters, such as ours. Cool-season bedding plants are freeze tolerant and grow best here between October and May.
The winner in this category for 2009 is viola 'Rain Blue and Purple.' Although the flowers are smaller than those of pansies, their close relatives, violas, are gaining in popularity. Their ability to literally cover themselves with flowers provides outstanding color impact in the landscape.
Viola 'Rain Blue and Purple' creates a spreading pool of cool blue in flowerbeds and containers. Transplants should be planted in the garden November through March. Like other violas, 'Rain Blue and Purple' produces flowers in such great quantities that, when in full bloom, the effect is a solid sheet of color.
An especially appealing trait of this viola is that the 1 1/2-inch blooms change color from purple and white to purple and blue as they mature. Few flowers change colors naturally, but 'Rain Blue and Purple' is a lovely example. (Another viola that does this is called 'Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow,' with flowers that open white, turn light lavender-blue and finish off a strong blue-purple.)
The 6-inch-tall 'Rain Blue and Purple' plants spread 10 to 14 inches in the garden or container. The trailing habit is perfectly suited for hanging baskets or patio containers.
Elegant eggplant
Eggplant 'Gretel,' one of three winners in the AAS vegetable category, is the earliest white eggplant available, according to trials. Early production means that they mature before the intense heat of summer, which can reduce harvests in Louisiana.
The glossy white mini-fruit are produced in clusters and can be harvested 55 days after transplanting, depending upon growing conditions. Like all eggplants, 'Gretel' will grow best during warm temperatures. Transplants are best planted into the garden in mid- to late April or early May.
The pure white fruit contains few seeds and is sweet with tender skin, even when it matures beyond the ideal fruit size of 3 to 4 inches. This trait gives gardeners a longer timeframe in which to harvest the fruit.
'Gretel' plants are relatively small, about 3 feet wide and tall. Its smaller size makes this variety suitable for the popular trend of growing edibles in containers. For best results, plant them in 3- to 5-gallon containers filled with potting soil and placed in sunny locations. Eggplant 'Hansel,' a similar plant with dark purple fruit, was an AAS winner last year.
Sweet melon
Melons are all about sweet juicy flesh and excellent flavor. According to AAS, 'Lambkin' produces melons with the delicious taste that gardeners crave. The oval melon weighs between 2 and 4 pounds and has a thin rind surrounding sweet, aromatic, white, juicy flesh. The melon's yellow skin with green mottling is unique.
Another outstanding characteristic of this AAS winner is its early production. Most other gourmet melons of this type mature much later than the 65 to 75 days required by 'Lambkin.' Because of the early harvest, the vigorous vines can produce more melons.
'Lambkin' stores well, lasting longer than other melons when kept in a cool place such as a refrigerator. Seeds are best planted in the garden in April. The vines grow 6 feet or more.
Squash soars
Acorn squash 'Honey Bear,' the final AAS vegetable winner, was bred to be baked and served in the half shell. The "honey" in the name refers to the vegetable's sweet taste when cooked.
In addition to flavor, this squash has three outstanding qualities that make it worthy of the award: a compact growth habit, high yields and resistance to powdery mildew.
The bushy, compact plant will reach 2 to 3 feet tall and spread 4 to 5 feet. It does not produce a long vine, as do most winter squashes, and thus takes up less room in the garden. Each plant will produce about three to five fruit. Each dark green acorn squash weighs about a pound, which is a perfect size for sharing between two people.
The yield is high due to powdery mildew resistance. At the end of the growing season, many acorn squash plants succumb to mildew, and fruit on the plants never matures. 'Honey Bear' continues to bear fruit throughout the growing season. It will take about 100 days from sowing seed in the garden to the harvest of the first squash.
I just bought some strawberry plants and noted on your LSU AgCenter Web site that November was the time to plant them. Is there any hope for them if I plant them now? Should I put them in pots at this point to protect them from freezing, and then transplant them in the spring?
Pat Austin
We wouldn't plant strawberries in November if there were an issue with winter cold, so potting them to protect them from freezing is unnecessary. At this point, it is important to get them into the garden as soon as possible. October/November through April/May is their growing season. Your plants have lost weeks of growing time, so when the main harvest season hits in March and April, they may be smaller and less productive than those planted in October or November. However, provided that you chose a variety suitable for your area, you should still get fruit. Put the plants in sunny, well-drained beds (strawberries are generally planted in raised beds or rows). Mulch with an inch or so of pine straw to keep the fruit off the ground; this will keep the fruit cleaner and minimize weeds. The plants are hardy, but the flowers and fruit are prone to damage in freezing weather. If a hard freeze is predicted while the plants are producing flowers or fruit, cover them with sheets to provide some protection. The freeze will not affect flowers or fruit produced later. So, if you choose not to protect and damage occurs, generally all that is lost is what was on the plants at the time of the freeze.
We have two ponderosa lemon trees that have produced fruit in the past, but had hardly any lemons this season and are showing signs of sooty mold. The trees are so big that I'm not sure how to spray them. Could there be a connection between the mold and lack of fruit?
Jennifer DuPlessis
Citrus trees do occasionally take a year off. As for the sooty mold, it is not attacking the trees directly, but it does indicate the presence of sucking insects, or black flies, which can weaken the tree and could be a factor in the lack of fruit. The black flies produce an excretion called honeydew. The honeydew accumulates on the leaves and the sooty mold fungi grow on it. During winter, spray the tree with Malathion several times to begin to get a handle on the problem. As the weather warms and freezing temperatures pass, you can use a horticultural oil (All Seasons Oil, Year Round Spray Oil) alone or in combination with Malathion. Since the trees are large, you would do best using a hose-end applicator. This device is attached to the end of a garden hose and can generally spray to a height of about 10 feet. Wet thoroughly under the leaves, where the insects live.
I have an unusual question: I've found sweet potatoes in the ground that were produced by last season's very vigorous chartreuse ornamental sweet potato vine. Are they edible?
Robert Kocher
Ornamental sweet potatoes (Ipomoea batatas), such as the 'Margarita' sweet potato you grew last summer, are real sweet potatoes and will produce tuberous roots just like the type of sweet potatoes that we buy at the grocery. However, ornamental sweet potatoes are selected for their attractive foliage, not great eating quality. It won't hurt you if you want to give them a try, but be prepared to be disappointed in the taste. Incidentally, if you leave the tuberous roots in the ground, they will sprout and grow in the spring. Ornamental sweet potatoes will generally return for several years, which saves money, since they do not have to be replanted annually.

($55) Bright medium yellow. Superrich aromas of candied yellow fruits, lemon drop, roasted grain, smoke and vanilla. Large-scaled, broad and impressively fine-grained; this really fills the mouth but bright acids give it a light touch. A leesy quality adds complexity. This seems every bit as rich as the superb 2004, and also calls for 12 to 18 months of patience.

Monday News and Headlines with Kim Wells:
Flags are at half-staff across Indy as the city mourns another IMPD officer killed in the line of duty. Veteran Officer Perry Renn died Saturday during a shootout with a man armed with a high-powered rifle in an alley near 34th Street at Forest Manor Avenue. IMPD says that man is Major Davis Jr., 25. Davis was shot in the head and abdomen and is still in critical condition at Eskenazi Hospital. Investigators say Renn and another officer were responding to a call of shots fired in that alley. Renn was a 22-year veteran of the force and worked out of IMPD's North District. Tributes and memorials have popped-up all over the city including around his police cruiser.
The man accused of killing IMPD Officer Renn has a long history with police. According to police records, Davis is mentioned in at least seven incidents since 2006, including two as an adult. In 2007, Davis was arrested for possession of cocaine and in 2008, he was arrested for dealing drugs. Davis' father died of a heart attack in 2003 while in police custody. Davis' family accused IMPD of brutally beating Major Davis Senior while arresting him.
Condolences have come from the governor's office following the deaths of several Indiana law enforcement officers. Governor Mike Pence is ordering flags lowered in each officer's county of residence on the day of his funeral. In northwest Indiana, Gary Metropolitan Police Officer Jeffery Brady Westerfield, 47, was found shot and killed in his patrol car early Sunday. He was an 18-year veteran of the force working the midnight shift. Ironically, Sunday was Westerfield's birthday. The Post-Tribune reports "a person of interest" and two others have been taken into custody and this investigation is on-going.
The Tipton County community is laying to rest Tipton County Deputy Sheriff Jacob Calvin today. Calvin, 31, was killed last weekend while responding to an accident. He lost control of his patrol car, veered off the road and was thrown from the vehicle. He died there at the accident scene. Calvin's funeral is in the gym of Carroll High School in Flora beginning at 11 a.m.
Officer Renn's death capped off a violent holiday weekend here in Indianapolis. IMPD arrested Lawrence Jones, 23, for possession of a handgun without a license after an early Saturday morning mass shooting in Broad Ripple. On Broad Ripple Avenue between College Avenue and Guilford Avenue police responded to a call of shots fired and found six men and one woman injured suffering from gunshot wounds. The injured were taken to St. Vincent Hospital. One man was critically injured. This incident reportedly stemmed from an argument after people bumped into each other, which then turned the village into an early morning scene of chaos. However, IMPD has not identified the shooter in this case. This investigation is on-going, The public is asked to call 317-262-TIPS if anyone has any information regarding this incident.
The rash of violence over the Fourth of July holiday weekend is intensifying the call for more officers on the streets of Indy. City Council member at-large Jon Barth tells the "Indianapolis Star" the city has faced a problem of a chronic officer shortage for years. Police union officials tell the paper the department is under siege by, "ruthless predators who sense the vulnerability of a short-handed department."

Kurtz has been saying since he was appointed in August that he would only stay until after the Nov. 6 election, when he planned to ask the state to appoint a new manager.
Now, Kurtz said he told the state treasury department he'll stay at least until the end of the fiscal year, June 30, 2013, if necessary.
Kurtz said he's become too invested in Flint's outcome to leave the job this soon.
"I've taken some ownership," he said. "We have a good group here and I don't want to leave them."
Kurtz was appointed Aug. 8 after a group opposed to Public Act 4, the emergency manager law, got enough signatures on a petition to put a referendum of the law before voters.
Once the referendum was certified for the ballot, Public Act 4 was suspended, and the old version of the law, Public Act 72, was revived.
Then-emergency manager Michael Brown was no longer eligible to be emergency manager because of a clause in the old law that prevents former city employees from holding the office. Brown was temporary mayor in 2009.
A state administrative board appointed Kurtz to replace Brown, but a series of legal challenges to his appointment have since been filed. Lawsuits are pending in Ingham and Genesee County Circuit Courts.
Brown has said that if Public Act 4 is upheld by voters, he would return as emergency manager if the governor chooses to reappoint him.
