COLUMBIA, S.C. - Ivy is one of the easiest plants to grow - indoors or out.
And an ivy-covered topiary works as well on the dining room sideboard as it does on the patio.
Rebekah Cline of Rebekah's Garden at the State Farmers Market demonstrated how to make an ivy topiary.
Here's how she did it:
Creating Beauty: Rebekkah Cline of Rebekkah's Garden in Columbia, S.C., demonstrates how to create ivy topiary.
KRT Photo
She started with good potting soil and amended it. (Cline added Earth Healer chicken manure).
Then she filled a planter three-quarters full with the soil and placed the form in it.
Anything that gives you the shape you're looking for can work as a form.
This one has places for small votive candles, but you can use anything from a teepee of sticks to a tomato cage.
Next, choose an ivy plant with long tendrils.
What You Need
Potting soil
Any type of "form" to put the ivy on. You can buy forms for this purpose or use something like a teepee of sticks or a tomato plant cage.
Florist tape or twist ties
Ivy with long tendrils
Bury the roots in the potting soil, evenly placing the tendrils around the pot.
Then use potting soil to fill the pot to the top.
Snake the tendrils of the ivy around the form and fasten it with florist tape.
Twist ties work, too, but the green florist tape blends with the greenery.
As it grows, you'll need to keep training it to wrap its tendrils around the shape.
Ivy will grow inside or out. If the plant isn't accustomed to being outside, you'll need to winterize it, putting it outside for a while each day until it gets used to the cold.
Keep the ivy in indirect bright light but out of direct sunlight. Fertilize it with a general houseplant fertilizer once a month. Rotate the ivy when the leaves begin to face the light source.
Ivy takes a few years to establish itself. (The saying goes: The first year it sleeps, the second year it creeps and the third year it leaps.)
Be patient.
It's worth the wait.

text: African art typically relates to the peoples living in Sub-Saharan Africa. Wooden masks, which might either be human or animal or of mythical creatures, are one of the most commonly found forms of art in western Africa. In their original contexts, ceremonial masks were used for celebrations, initiations, crop harvesting, and war preparation. The masks were worn by a chosen or initiated dancer. During the mask ceremony the dancer goes into deep trance, and during this state of mind he communicates" with his ancestors. The masks can be worn in three different ways: vertically covering the face: as helmets, encasing the entire head, and as crest, resting upon the head, which was commonly covered by material as part of the disguise. African masks often represent a spirit and it is strongly believed that the spirit of the ancestors possesses the wearer. Most African masks are made with wood, and can be decorated with: Ivory, animal hair, plant fibers, pigments, shells, stones, and semi-precious gems also are included in the masks. Statues, usually of wood or ivory, are often inlaid with cowrie shells, metal studs and nails. Decorative clothing is also commonplace and comprises another large part of African art.

Hi Aaron,
As I uderstand, the docks say you can't have name based virtual hosts
because SSL is alreday serving the page before apache sees any http
In the example I posted, [url]https://mail.mydomain.net[/url] works and takes me
to my webmail, and [url]https://machinename.mydomain.net[/url] works and takes
me to my main webpage, however https://<anythingelse>.nydomain.net or
[url]https://www.mydomain.net[/url] refuses the connection.
This I don't understand. If it can see mail.mydomain.net and take me
there, and it can see machinename.mydomain.net and take me there why
can't it take me to [url]www.mydomain.net?[/url]
All I really need is mail.mydomain.net to take me to my webmail, and
anything else to just go to htdocs as normal. Can I set this up with
just one virtual host, and then some sort of catch all filter for
everything else?

An Idaho charter school has been reprimanded for using the Bible in its classes.
The Nampa Classical Academy was sent a notice of defect by the Idaho Public Charter School Commission.
"They clearly intend on the use of religious texts," Commissioner Alan Reed said. "I do think we have reason to believe this is happening and this is going to happen."
It's the first step in a process that could close the school.
The charter school, which has more than 500 students, plans to fight the decision in federal court. The Alliance Defense Fund (ADF) is representing the school.
"The Bible shouldn't be singled out for censorship," ADF Senior Legal Counsel David Cortman said.
The school commission investigated the school in August, arguing that the state's constitution "expressly" limits the use of religious texts.
Nampa Classical Academy board member Eric Makrush countered, "It also says no political documents may be used and if that's the case, then every school in Idaho is breaking the law because they all teach the constitution."
Nampa Academy said they were using the Bible as a literary and historic text, not to teach religion.
"Not only is the commission on safe constitutional ground to allow the school to use the Bible as an educational resource, it would be unconstitutional to deny the school the ability to include it as one resource among its many other texts," Cortman said.

Yeah, i'd say that's fairly reasonable for one. It's not a steal, but it's about the going rate anymore.
March 29, 2004, 08:17 PM
Does it come with anything else? I paid $330 for mine and it came with: sling, cleaning kit, 30 round mag, 40 round mag, thumbhole stock (installed) and another stock with pistol grip.

March 29, 2004, 10:32 PM
Sounds reasonable to me. I paid $375 back in December for my SAR-1. Just make sure it is a SAR-1 & not a WASR 10 as the WASR models tend to be a little cheaper in price.
March 29, 2004, 10:34 PM
Centerfire has em, but by the time you finish fees and shipping, you're close to your cost.
March 29, 2004, 10:49 PM
It's a good price and more importantly, you will get be able to inspect the rifle and check for canted sights/gas blocks before you lay down your cash.
March 30, 2004, 11:55 AM
Turns out it is a WASR :uhoh:

I don't know how far you are away from Ohio Rapid Fire, but you might want to check out their WASR's ... black polymer furniture, muzzle brake and a hardcase for $399:
and these guys do quality work - in fact, they are doing the Special Edition AK for AR15.com.

Olympus unveils new Voice-Trek V-40 and V-50 Voice recorders
October 17, 2005 Olympus is to release a pair of handheld voice recorders later this month that are likely to become hot property for journalists, in legal offices and in other professional roles where voice recording and transcription are the primary focus. The great thing about the new Voice-Treks is that the unit clips apart exposing a USB connection that is supported under the USB Storage class so transferring files doesn't require drivers for Mac or Windows. Both can play WMA and MP3 files and the larger unit will record 36 hours at the highest quality setting, making it an ideal voice recording tool – one AAA battery offers 11 hours of recording.
The new V-40 and V-50 will go on sale October 28 with a price of JPY20,000 for the 512MB model, and 30,000 yen for the1GB model. See the Japanese (in Japanese) web site for the products here.

Winnipeg is a city of 650,000 located on the Red River, 108 kilometers north of the U.S. border. Being near the center of Canada, it is a major transportation center. Although the city's population is now fairly diverse, most of the people are English-speaking with French, German and Ukrainian being other predominant languages. There are about 75,000 First Nations people living in Winnipeg.
There are a variety of service assignments available in Winnipeg:
Soup kitchen where the need is to help prepare and serve hot, free meals, and provide hospitality to the poor.
Provides a drop-in for young moms to chat and discuss issues that affect them. Volunteers would help with the day-to-day operations of the center.
Volunteers can serve on various working committees and in the office. Habitat Re-Store is another area for volunteer involvement. Re-Store diverts used construction materials and offers them for sale to the public at costs that are much lower than retail. All proceeds from sales go toward assisting in the primary mission of Habitat. Construction activities are generally in the summer, but occasional slow builds may take place any time of the year.
Soup kitchen and clothing distribution, where volunteers would be involved in cooking, serving meals, and providing hospitality and friendship.
An organization committed to distributing surplus food and eliminating hunger in the city. Volunteers would help with general warehouse work and administrative duties.
Lodging: Arrangements will be made through the MCC Manitoba.

Ten whole days before Thanksgiving, Fiona Dias, an executive at the ShopRunner Inc. retail-shopping service in Conshohocken, got an e-mail from Sports Authority, one of the firm's clients, that underlined how different retail sales are this year.
"They [Sports Authority] were starting the Black Friday pre-sale that night [Nov. 13]," she marveled. "You can buy the stuff, and they'll hold it until next Friday" at the sale price.
Dias says that beats even Wal-Mart, which plans to open stores for the big annual post-Thanksgiving sales at 10 p.m. Thanksgiving, "breaking the sacred barrier" that already had chains like Macy's and Target opening at midnight, hours before the traditional start.

We told you about The Predator remake/sequel/reboot a few weeks ago, which Robert Rodriguez is producing. Nobody has signed on to direct the film yet, but according to "Bloody Disgusting," that man might be Neil Marshall, the director of The Descent. Apparently he's in talks to do the film and is very close to putting his name on the dotted line.
I've only seen one film of Marshall's, that being The Descent, but it's been enough to make me anticipate anything else the guy does. It's one of the very few horror movies I enjoy and was one of my favorite films from 2005. Although I know I'm only going off of the one impression, I think it's pretty much a perfect call if they can hire him for this project.
As much as I'm soured on the whole remake/sequel/reboot thing and don't think The Predator particularly needs one, especially after the greatness that was the Arnie one-liner, "Stick around," after throwing a knife into someone's chest (that's my Governor!), Marshall's involvement would have me excited. Throw in Rob Rod and producer and I think some magic can be made. What do you think of this choice, assuming it comes to fruition?
Here's a behind-the-scenes look at Marshall's latest film, due sometime this year, Centurion:

Imaging Hard Drive? (Windows XP)
Hey G4EF community!
First off I am new here :) And I will be going by The_Chief (related to something I do in school.) I am an avid computer user and am always looking to further my knowledge with computers and technology.
Now to the question!
I am looking to send my Acer Aspire One D250 Net book to tech-services in Texas to repair the keyboard. I had a key pop off and a few other keys get messed up due to and ID card slide under keys and, yeah. Anyways, I would like to image the hard drive on the net book before I sending to Texas (where the repair center is) in case anything happens.
Can someone explain or link me to a tutorial on how to image my hard drive?
:cheers: ,
Re: Imaging Hard Drive? (Windows XP)
Hi and welcome to the forum and to Image your Hard Drive you can Norton Ghost which can image your complete drive in few minutes.
Re: Imaging Hard Drive? (Windows XP)
Thanks Shabbir, I will try Norton ghost.
Re: Imaging Hard Drive? (Windows XP)
Great and do share your views and experience about the same.
Re: Imaging Hard Drive? (Windows XP)
I just downloaded Norton Ghost Friday and just started using it yesterday. So far my only dislike with it is that you have to have it constantly hooked up to an external point because it will make scheduled automatic back-ups. I got my initial image created and am about to test it tomorrow to see if the image worked.
After I do that I will post a more in-depth review. :)
:cheers: ,

Quiet all cars! Quiet all cars!
The Amarillo Police Department announced Thursday it will begin cracking down on excessive car noise in response to complaints from business owners and residents around Sixth Avenue.
"We've been looking at how to approach this for the last few weeks," said Cpl. Jerry Neufeld of APD's Crime Prevention Department.
Police will issue Class-C misdemeanor citations, punishable with fines as high as $500, he said.
The effort will target behavior such as drivers showing off acceleration, cars with excessive exhaust noise or playing loud music.
Police have found that most loud noise from cars happens because the drivers don't operate them in safe and responsible ways, not because of faulty equipment such as defective mufflers, Neufeld said.
The department hopes drivers will comply by not running their cars in ways that interfere with residents and businesses, according to an APD release.

C++ questio about functions
hello i wrote this short program that need just to multyply between 2 numbers ,but doing so only by useing + (thats our assigment from class)
the program do the work but it also add numbers like 449176 why does it do it ??,i feel that the answer will make me understand function real better ,any one know the answer??
Re: C++ questio about functions
I don't understand the function enough to help you, but I can give you one little advice : instead of using "cin>>k" use "cout<<endl; system("PAUSE");" :)
Re: C++ questio about functions
Undefined behaviour
You can do multiplication with repeated addition, e.g. 3*6=6+6+6 - that's 6 added to a zero-initialised accumulator 3 times.
Re: C++ questio about functions
Hi your keffel() functions is supposed to return int. The program as it is won't compile.
Bestt regards
Re: C++ questio about functions
Re: C++ questio about functions
Good point; I hadn't spotted that.
kefel() doesn't actually return a value to the calling function (main). However it does display the value of t before it returns. So (if t=++t does what the OP thinks, i.e. t=t+1) it will display the correct value.
What happens after the function returns, on the "cout<<kefel (a,b);" line, depends on the compiler's method of returning values. For Microsoft Visual Studio on Windows, it is the value in the EAX register. Since there is no "return" statement, the value "returned" will effectively be whatever junk was in EAX (however, MSVS would throw an error, preventing compilation, due to the lack of the return value). This could account for the "numbers like 449176" observed by the OP.
If the OP is using a very old compiler then it is possible it does not enforce the "non-void function must return a value" rule.

In the coming years and decades, the entire region will probably become even more important. This applies not only to the southeastern border regions of the Alliance area, with a view to the Middle East, but also to the allies in the Mediterranean and eventually the Alliance as a whole. In view of increasing refugee movements, the continued unsettled domestic situation in the North African states after the Arab spring, which has been followed by power struggles and competition for resources in the Central African region, calls not only for economic and political assistance from the European Union, which particularly in the south faces its own serious problems (the EURO crisis, which is having a considerable impact on all the partner states). The establishment of new security structures in those regions also poses new challenges to the NATO community.
The alliance history of the flanks on the one hand provides an excellent historical background for historical-political orientation concerning NATO and its member states and on the other serves to point out problems and as a background for today's crises and conflicts.
The Potsdam Center of Military History and Social Sciences has therefore decided to organize a workshop on the topic of NATOÆs flanks during the East-West conflict and since the ōturnaroundö in 1990. The history of issues concerning out-of-area regions which have increased since the 1990s, also plays a prominent role.
The workshop will be organized as follows (provisional program):
Panel 1 ¢ The Northern and the Southern Flank of NATO ¢ Second Rate Regions in the Cold War?
(Section on policy and history on NATOÆs flanks)
Panel 2 ¢ Military Defence of the NATO Flanks ¢ Assets and Problems
(Section on military strategy and operations (e.g. NATO exercises)).
Panel 3 ¢ From Finmark to Global Cold War ¢ The NATO Flanks in general strategic perspectives
(Section on the importance of the Persian Gulf and global aspects in relation to NATOÆs flanks)
The workshop is intended for historians, political scientists and military representatives from the Bundeswehr, NATO and its partner countries. Interested members from the general public are also warmly welcomed.
Participation is free of charge, and speakers will be given free accommodation and get their travel expenses reimbursed.
The workshop will be held at the Center of Military History and Social Sciences in Potsdam and will be organized by Bernd Lemke and Stefan Brenner. Researchers, representatives and decision makers interested in participating in the workshop are requested to apply (cv and short abstract of the paper) to Bernd Lemke by e-mail (firstname.lastname@example.com), stating their contact information, by 31 July 2013.

I got my rabbit referred to Molly. He had mobility problems in his back legs. Molly was the fourth vet we had seen for the problem and the first who wanted to x-Ray. The x-ray revealed not rheumatism, as had been suspected but a degenerative bone tumour and two fractures. If we had not had this information we would have had a huge dilemma as to how long to prolong his life and I would always have had doubt in my mind that we had done the best for him. All the staff were compassionate and understanding of my worries and grief, and I am sure he was in the best possible care. It would be amazing if more vets had Molly's skills and knowledge about bunny medicine.

The split left Allegheny with an overall record of 20-11 and 9-5 in the NCAC, while Wooster is 23-10 and 11-3.

IPC figures show rigid printed circuit board shipments declined 14 percent and bookings were down 2.1 percent in October 2009 from October 2008. Year to date, rigid printed circuit board shipments were down 26 percent and bookings fell by 22.7 percent. Compared to the previous month, rigid printed circuit board shipments declined 7.8 percent and rigid bookings decreased 16.2 percent. The book-to-bill ratio for the North American rigid printed circuit board industry in October 2009 increased slightly to 1.10. Note: A ratio of more than 1.00 suggests current demand is ahead of supply, a positive indicator for sales growth over the next two to six months.
Flexible circuit shipments in October 2009 went up 4.3 percent and bookings decreased 2.6 percent compared to October 2008. Year to date, flexible circuit shipments were down 0.9 percent and bookings were down 4.7 percent. Compared to the previous month, flexible circuit shipments went down 14.1 percent and flex bookings fell by 30.9 percent. The North American flexible circuit book-to-bill ratio in October 2009 climbed to 1.00.
"Although year-on-year growth rates are still mostly negative, we can see a positive growth trend in North American printed circuit board sales and orders compared to most earlier months in 2009," said Denny McGuirk, IPC president. "Declines in sales from September to October of this year reflect a seasonal trend that we typically see at the beginning of a new quarter. The overall trend, however, is upward and that is also reflected in the book-to-bill ratio, which has remained high for the past six months."
The full report is available online from IPC.

You have to admire Washington Post columnist Jay Mathews for his openness to persuasion. Unlike so many education commentators, he is willing to budge an inch or two in the face of compelling arguments.
The latest example of this pliability came on Monday, when he responded to a young teacher's concerns about the effect of testing and accountability pressures on teaching and learning. He was willing to concede two problems the young teacher raised:
Mathews' instinctive reaction to the "bubble kids" phenomenon is fairly common: "A good principal...would put an end to such nonsense." This response certainly carries genuine emotional weight. Still, it puzzles me that so many DC policy wonks invoke it in defense of No Child Left Behind in its current form.
What, after all, is the point of a policy that creates poor incentives and encourages perverse behavior? If we can rely on everyone to do the right thing regardless of consequences, then we hardly need accountability systems in the first place.
As Mathews realizes, even good principals succumb to pressures to focus on "bubble kids" when the stakes are so high. When he learns that the founder of DC's much-admired Cesar Chavez charter school does it, he concludes that it is "a bigger problem than I thought."
Sure, many schools offer all children rich instruction in the liberal arts and still manage to reach their performance targets on state assessments. This website celebrates many such schools. But is such courage always or even often rewarded? Are impressive achievement gains always recognized in AYP determinations?
Mathews recommends broader, fairer and more accurate measures of school and student success. Like many, he calls for measures that gauge students' academic improvement over time. He also seconds his young teacher's call for a more comprehensive vision of success:
It would be better to credit the school for important successes outside of testing, Fine wrote, such as "when a teacher energizes a reluctant reader to tackle a novel, when a struggling math student starts coming after school for tutoring, when an administrator finally gets a troublemaker to reflect on her actions."
There should also be a way to honor Fine's request for an extra dimension, such as reporting a rise in students doing scientific experiments or writing analytical papers. Some monitoring systems, such as those used by International Baccalaureate programs, do that. It is part of good teaching and should be available to everybody.
Using richer and more accurate measures for accountability purposes won't be easy. But many more people now agree that it's important.
Update: A kind reader discreetly informed me that I had misspelled "persuasion" in the title of this blog posting. How embarrassing. At least I got it right in the text of the posting. Apologies for the lapse.
Julia Margaret Cameron FTW!
Thank you, Tom!
I'm glad someone recognized the image included in this posting! She's one of my favorites--a photographer who turned photography into an art form in the 1860's, a time when many others feared it heraleded the end of all art and beauty.
The image is in the public domain, by the way.
Claus - as you know, I hang out in a virtual community with outstanding teachers from across the USA. In our daily discussions over the past six years, many many members of the Teacher Leaders Network have shared stories about the bubble-kid focus in their schools and districts. Why in the world do we think (or expect) that principals will take heroic stands against such practices, in the face of pressure from central office leaders, local media, state regulators, and political forces in the community to raise test scores.
School leaders who perceive the rules of the game as unfair will soon engage in strategies to get around the rules. We need a new game and we need to involve principals and teachers in creating fair rules.
Claus - Nice piece. I recently interviewed Jay and agree that in the face of compelling arguments, he will reverse course - very fair dude.
Thanks, John and Paul--
Jay Mathews is indeed quite fair and less ideological than many other education writers these days. It was refreshing to see him agree that the rules of the game do need some work.

The Wii outputs the same signal no matter what monitor it hooks up to. It doesn't "sense" anything about the TV through a video cable, LMAO (technologically impossible).
It sounds like you are plugging a set of composite cables into the wrong ports of a TV with component inputs if it only works on "old" TV's. Component delivers the video over three cables instead of compositing them into one.
Whatever the problem may be, unless your Wii specifically is defective, the issue is on your end. The Wii outputs composite video (or component, if you have the proper cables) just like any other device, it doesn't discriminate.

Readers' Reflections: Do you believe in the devil?
We asked our readers this month if they believe in Satan, the devil or a similar religious figure. Here is what you had to say:
I believe, just as we have a guardian angel, each of us has been assigned a devil of our own. God is, and there is Satan, both have minions who try to influence their given charges. My angel's name is St. Michael, my devil's is Sid. Daily the battle for Joe Cieslak Sr. is in play. Whom I listen to is known only to the three of us. The New Testament lists Jesus casting a devil from a person. Each time sanity and grace are restored. The ability to send a devil to hell. Wow! Often I ask St. Michael for guidance, Sid to go to hell. Only if it was that easy.
Currently, I'm a free-range Druid. As a human, I have free will. As an American, I have freedom of religion. Our Druid creed is that there is but one God, but may Allah be merciful, Jesus be my friend, Buddha help me laugh, Confucius give me something good to say, Vishnu, hinder my enemies, and Gia, bless my garden.
-- Joe Cieslak Sr., Druid, McKean Township
This question reminded me of a sermon at Triumphant Life Church in regard to the times we're in. It's apparent and easy for us to say "look how much evil is in the world," or "look how much the devil is doing." But as Christians, and people of faith from any religion, we are not to focus on what we don't want, but what we do want. It's the law of attraction that unifies our mind and spirit. Therefore, we look beyond our worldly present and say with affirmation, "Yes, but look how much greater good God is doing!" Bringing multiple people together for his good. In conclusion, do I believe in such a figure? No, but I do acknowledge him as he is always trying to get our attention, and cause our distraction from pursuing our true purposeful and meaningful lives of humbling service and empowering virtue.
-- Dan Gennaro, Triumphant Life Church, Millcreek Township
Satan would like nothing better than to discourage. He would like nothing better than to have us so burdened by the everyday details of life that we forget the blessings, to cause us to feel insignificant and to make us believe our efforts are of little importance in the great scheme of things. The more I thought of my blessings, the less discouraged I felt. Satan will cause your negative attitude to so quickly overshadow God's bountiful provisions. ... Those are the days when you have to feel God's wind beneath your wings and soar with enthusiastic courage, and tackle the challenges of our lives with determination and faith.
-- Rita Trabert, St. Stanislaus Catholic Church, Erie
In the Bible, God's word, God speaks of the following descriptions for Satan: accuser (Romans 12:10), adversary (1 Peter 5:8), Beelzebub (Matthew 10:25), murderer (John 8:44), prince of demons (Matthew 12:24), ruler of darkness (Ephesians 6:12), Satan (Genesis 3:4), serpent (Luke 10:18) and wicked one (Matthew 13:19). Just to list a few.
If you live long enough to realize Satan lives and is alive, well and active in the world, you probably have had contact with him. There is not enough paper, ink or lead to list his dastardly evil doings. He is unbelievable, he is mean and nasty, he is someone you need to avoid. Open your eyes! Pay attention! Watch! Pray!
On the flip side, there is hope.
-- Rev. Nancy Robertson, First Church of God, Erie
Do I believe in Satan, the evil one, the once good, but now fallen angel, who opposes our creator's plan and wreaks havoc on human lives? You bet I do! First of all, I believe he exists because God, who is truth itself, tells us so. In the books of Job and Zacharias, God revealed that Satan walks among us. Just ask those who are addicted to drugs, alcohol or pornography if they believe in Satan. Secondly, we need only to look at our world today to see the destruction of moral values and the decline of our religious culture to know that the evil one does exist. Search the Internet and listen to Paul Harvey's April 3, 1965, commentary "If I Were the Devil (Warning for a Nation)" and you will understand that the devil does, indeed, truly exist.
-- Richard Schroeck, Roman Catholic, Erie
If Satan's MO is to steal, kill and destroy, is that your friend?
The devil (Lucifer) was an angel of the Lord. He was a minister of music in heaven. He was expelled from heaven because he thought he should be worshipped as God. He had an ax to grind.
I respect the devil and his many attempts to test, try and tempt. As related in the Bible, Jesus himself was tempted in the desert. In Matthew 4: 1-4: "Then Jesus was led by the spirit into the desert to be tempted by the devil. After fasting 40 days and 40 nights he was hungry. The tempter came to him and said, 'If you are the son of God tell these stones to become bread.' Jesus answered, 'It is written, Man does not live on bread alone, but every word that comes from the mouth of God.'"
It does my heart good to know that in the book of Job, the devil couldn't destroy all of his possessions ... without clearing it with God.
The devil is a created being. I serve a mighty God who is over all my circumstances including the devil.
-- Joy Godzwa-Baney, Erie First Assembly of God, Summit Township
I read an interesting article where a gentleman sat next to Mother Teresa and felt an aura that surrounded her, of good, of peacefulness, and he felt very comfortable around her. I believe many of us have been in the presence of someone where we felt so uncomfortable that you could hardly wait to get away from them. They had something about them that truly felt evil. If good could create a sense of peace, then evil must create dread, but first appears so very enticing to the beholder to beckon them to succumb. Satan is present and touching so many things in our lives.
Satan is here. He is real. Something so good can be made to look so very bad by the way he uses people's desires to undermine and create moral decay. God is our salvation. Satan is our path to guilt and destruction.
-- Trish Barron, Millcreek Community Church
At this Hallowed time of the year, the usual horror stories and rumors regarding witches, pagans and Druids start to circulate through the media, and once more we are required to remind the public that for followers of a nature-based religion there is no place in our beliefs for an evil deity responsible for the wicked and immoral actions of mankind. We do not follow, worship, nor even believe in a Satan, Lucifer, or whoever was described by the Abrahamic religions.
I do realize that Satan represents the perfect scapegoat for the actions of wicked or immoral people, but I firmly believe that we are responsible for our own sins and should own up to them and not blame the boogeyman.
-- Rev. Christopher Temple, also known as Grollwynn, Whispering Lake Grove
I don't believe in a personal spiritual being that is evil or causes humans to do evil. Certainly humans do evil acts, sometimes intentionally. But such a concept serves as an excuse ("The devil made me do it") and has led to ineffective, even murderous "treatment" of alleged evildoers ("Beat the devil out of the witch").
-- Robert Cogan, Jewish, Erie
In the first chapter of Genesis, we find that God created all that exists, and called it good. There is no room in creation for evil, or error, but only for good. Therefore, Satan, the devil, or any similar evil entity, has no legitimate claim to life.
References to a devil or an evil creature in the Scriptures are allegorical, often representing temptation or some kind of aberration, as the serpent in the garden of Eden, or when Jesus said, "Get thee behind me, Satan."
The "devil," which is familiar to us today, was used in different ways, much more often in the New Testament than in the Old Testament, and according to Bible scholars it was first supposed to weed out evil. It was a human invention, and it remains a legend, darkness which dissipates as the light of truth appears in our consciousness.
-- Claudette Bedard, First Church of Christ, Scientist, Erie
I believe that the Canon of Scripture is indeed the word of God and that Jesus did rise from the dead and charged his church with teaching this truth to all the nations. Therefore, I believe in the reality of the fall and the reality of sin. The Scripture and the church tradition see in this being a fallen angel, called "Satan" or the "devil." The devil and other demons were indeed created naturally good by God, but they became evil by their own doing. In 1 John 5:19, it says that "we know that we are of God, and the whole world is in the power of the evil one." We see here that the devil is the "god of this world," and the whole world is in his power. The only way to overcome him is through humility and prayer, based on the examples of Jesus and Mary.
-- Deacon Dennis Kudlak, St. Mark Catholic Center, Erie
Satan?!? Of course! Look around you at all the obvious signs. For me, it's at work where ... co-workers only care about themselves and not the team concept. Look at me, boss, and see how great I am! Temptation abounds on TV and in movies, even today's crap music. Stay on plan and listen to him when you pray. There was a great painter, Matisse. He was suffering from arthritis, much, much more intense than mine. A good friend asked him why he continues to paint while suffering so. He answered, "Soon the pain will pass but the beauty will last forever!"
So it will be for us. Endure the daily suffering and temptation because eternal salvation will be our just reward, someday forever!

I believe the Bible from Genesis to Revelation. One time Satan wanted to be above God, though he was the highest angel there in heaven. Because of this, he was thrown out and fell to Earth as probably the best of the demons. Adam and Eve were created by God but they were tempted by Satan, and Eve took the forbidden fruit against God and Adam, too. It seems the devil, Satan, knew Jesus was returning in the clouds some day, and the dead and alive will join him in the clouds. Only people who have asked for forgiveness from God can go to the clouds.

Most of the Jewish and general world is fuming over Russian President Vladimir Putin's takeover of Crimea. But some ultra-Orthodox Jews are positively delighted by it.
This week, Grand Rabbi Moshe Shternbuch, the vice president of Israel's Rabbinical Court and a descendant of the revered rabbi known as the Vilna Gaon (aka "Genius of Vilnius"), announced to his disciples that Putin's actions are a sure sign that the Messiah is on his way.
Apparently, Shternbuch heard this secret prediction from Rabbi Yitzchak Chever, who heard it from Rabbi Chaim of Volozhyn, who heard it from the Vilna Gaon himself, who said shortly before his death:
When you hear that the Russians have captured the city of Crimea, you should know that the times of the Messiah have started, that his steps are being heard. And when you hear that the Russians have reached the city of Constantinople (today's Istanbul), you should put on your Shabbat clothes and don't take them off, because it means that the Messiah is about to come any minute.
Shternbuch's pronouncement, which was reported this weekend in the ultra-Orthodox press in Israel, has some Haredi Jews working themselves into a messianic frenzy. A few, like this rabbi, are even going so far as to say that "we owe a note of thanks" to Putin for hastening the coming of the Messiah.
Unfortunately, there's a problem with Shternbuch's revelation — aside from the glaring moral one, that is. As blogger Shmarya Rosenberg has pointed out, Russia actually invaded Crimea during the Vilna Gaon's own lifetime, and yet the Messiah failed to materialize:
In 1783, during the Vilna Gaon's own lifetime (1720-1797), the Russian Empire invaded and annexed Crimea from the Tatar-governed Khanate of Crimea. So Shternbuch's "deep secret" makes little sense.
Of course, the other problem with Shternbuch's prediction is this: It suggests the Russian takeover of Crimea is just a precursor to the Russian takeover of Istanbul. Turkish Prime Minister Erdogan doesn't seem to be shaking in his boots right now — so it seems the Messiah is still a good ways away.
Don't put on those Shabbat clothes just yet.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Sure enough, there's a pulse in the Tennessee Titans. After an 0-6 start, they are starting to come back to life.
The Titans blasted the Buffalo Bills 41-17 Sunday afternoon to win their third consecutive game.
Running back Chris Johnson scampered for 132 yards on 26 carries, scoring two touchdowns, and led the Tennessee receivers with nine catches for 100 yards. Quarterback Vince Young completed 17 of 25 passes for 210 yards and one touchdown.
Rod Hood, the former Auburn defensive back, had an interception for the third consecutive games, this time returning it 31 yards for the day's final TD. Vincent Fuller also had a pass interception for touchdown as the Titans blew open the game with 24 fourth-quarter points.
Terrell Owens, the Bills' controversial receiver from Alexander City, had three catches for 85 yards, but he was the intended receiver seven times. Hood's interception went right through Owens' hands.
The Titans, who still hold faint playoff hopes, travel to Houston for a Monday night game, hoping to avenge a 34-31 loss to the Texans in September.

Stay the Night in a Radically Green Earthship
Earthships, like a lot of things that came out of the '70s, marked a radical departure from the norm. The brainchild of New Mexico architect Mike Reynolds, these houses look like the dwellings of uber-environmental aliens who crash landed in the desert and decided to make a go of it. Today, many of these residences are now offered as vacation rentals.
"It's extremely efficient, smart design for a building," Boulder-based journalist Rachel Cernansky, who stayed in an Earthship while visiting Taos, N.M., told Discovery News.
The Earth-conscious, autonomous, passive solar buildings are made from recycled materials. Reynolds designed his original structures using old tires, glass bottles, and cans rammed with earth that are plastered with stucco.
Horseshoe-shaped Earthships maximize solar gain in the winter while thick interior walls keep the inside temperature stable. Natural ventilation from skylights, windows, and underground tubes help as well. Earthships have solar panels and wind turbines that allow them to function off-grid.
PHOTOS: Solar Homes With Style
Earthship Biotecture Reynolds' firm, rents out five different Earthship houses in Taos, N.M., for fees that range from $120 to $295 per night. Vacationers can rent a wing of the house or the whole home. Each home can sleep between one and four or six people. They all have private baths and full kitchens to boot.
Despite the scorching summer heat, the interior temperature naturally stayed at 67 degrees, she said. "You can naturally keep the building in the middle of the desert cool, in the sun, with no air conditioning."
ANALYSIS: Live Inside a California Roll
She also described the house's extensive graywater system as conserving and fully using every drop of rainwater harvested from the roof. The Earthship she stayed in had a banana tree thriving in the south-facing greenhouse. Water is filtered and recylced so it can be used in progression. Water from the sink is filtered so it can run through the shower, then it's processed again for the toilet, and the final filtration sends greywater to the plants. Sewage treatment is contained, leaving groundwater untouched.
Cernansky said she and her husband are keen to return. "We keep talking about when we'll go back to Taos," she said. "We were actually thinking about building one ourselves."
