|This route was awesome! Eric and I thought it deserved to be posted on Mnt project, so it might get more traffic.. the second pitch is kinda a pile, but if you have climbed Journey Home and/or Scenic Cruise, you will love this route. DO IT!!!

|There is bird shit on P5, but it's not the hardest climbing and protects well. The crux is shit-free. Found the ear on P4 to be more strenuous, it's kinda wide. Linking this into Journey Home was a super Black day of 5.10.

|Combine this with Journey Home and you get a route that only the Black can deliver. There is a serious amount of 5.10 climbing on the second ear. What a satisfying outing. The two routes combined created a 4 star outing for my brother and me. Pulling out of the second ear had one move that felt more like 5.11 to me. There was a big move from a jug undercling that is a little height dependent. There wasn't any slippery poop when we climbed it like 5 years ago. I would love to climb this again.

This climb is classic. With a little more traffic and a teeny bit of bird shit removal from the second ear, it would get a four star rating.
Seven pitches of continuous 9+/10 climbing with the second ear coming in at 11-, a little more continuous than the Scenic Cruise but not quite as classic- but close!
Don't forget to move left before you get too high on the second ear - consider this 11- and you won't be surprised.
Don't let the appearance at the start put you off, it cleans up quickly. By the way, the topo is wrong - the start is in a left-facing, not a right-facing, corner.
Did not use a #5 Camalot until the 5.9 OW on the Journey Home, the First Ear protects with a #4. You don't need two green Aliens, any smaller stuff will do.

|Kick ass classic climb. Sustained 5.10 climbing. Hrdly noticable bird shit as of May 27, 2012. Obvious route finding. Standard rack plus (1) #4 and #5.

|The bird shit is about a 3 out 10 on the crap-o-meter on P5. Nothing to be concerned with. I thought this route was more sustained and physical than Scenic Cruise! The ear on P4 is slightly committing but easier than it looks. A #5 halfway out the ear will calm the nerves. P2 is probably closer to 5.8-9 and 215 ft long. I ended up doing some harder moves with 30 ft runouts to avoid the bad rock. We didn't place any RPs, but a couple small TCUs did get used.

MOUNT PLEASANT - Petrel's long day at the Toler's Cove Marina Saturday resulted in a happy ending in the Carolina Billfish Classic, the third of five events in the South Carolina Governor's Cup Billfishing Series.
Petrel, owned by Harry Johnson Jr. and captained by John Thomas, had already used its two allotted fishing days, releasing two blue marlin and four sailfish, and finished first in the tournament with 2,000 points.
Sportin' Life also spent the day at the dock but retained second place. Sportin' Life, owned by Manly and Graham Eubank and captained by Mike Glaesner, finished with 1,200 points, releasing two blue marlin.
Rascal, owned by Norman Pulliam and captained by Mark Rogers, had the top day of the 15 boats that could fish Saturday, releasing a blue marlin and sailfish to go along with a sailfish caught earlier in the tournament, amassing 1,000 points.
Mister Pete won the dolphin division with a 42.6-pound catch Friday; Three J's had the top wahoo, 52.4 pounds; and Syked Out won the tuna division with a 17.2-pound catch Saturday.
Twenty of the 28 boats in the Carolina Billfish Classic released at least one billfish during the tournament. Nine blue marlin, one white marlin and 23 sailfish were released during the tournament.
The next event in the South Carolina Governor's Cup Billfishing Series is the MegaDock Billfishing Tournament on July 10-12 out of the Charleston City Marina.

Johnson, C.C.; Lippard, S.J.; Liu, K.E.; Newcomb, M. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1993, 115, 939-947.Introduction:
Understanding an organic reaction mechanism is an integral part of synthetic chemistry. If one knows the path through which the reactants are transformed into products, then the product composition, including stereochemistry, can be predicted before the reaction is actually carried out. There exist several types of reactive intermediates found in the main types of organic mechanisms. These include carbocations, carbanions, carbenes, and radicals.
Radicals occupy an important niche in organic reactions and determining if radical intermediates are involved in the mechanism is invaluable. In 1980, Griller and Ingold introduced an indirect way of determining if the reaction proceeds via radical intermediates.1 The method involved free radical clock reactions. The idea behind these reactions is that an essentially irreversible radical rearrangement occurs with a known rate of rearrangement (kr) and can be used to probe a reaction mechanism.2 Organic chemists then use these calibrated clocks in two ways. First, they incorporate the radical clock into the molecule at a position where the radical is proposed to be formed. The reaction is then carried out and if a radical is formed in the mechanism, a portion of the reactants will undergo the irreversible radical rearrangement. Thus, the products will be a mixture of the rearranged and unrearranged reactants, indicating the presence of a radical. Second, if rearranged products are observed, the product ratios and the known rate of radical rearrangement allows one to indirectly calculate the rate constant of the reaction in question. Thus, a radical mechanism can be supported merely by the presence of rearranged products. The basis of the free-radical clock method is to create a competition between the free-radical rearrangement reaction (with a known kr) and the proposed mechanism in the presence of an appropriate quenching/trapping agent (Figure 1).3
Figure 1: Competition kinetics experiment. Radical R· rearranges to give R¢· in competition with trapping agent X-Y which gives the unrearranged and rearranged products R-X and R¢ -X.
This competition results in a ratio of products consisting of the unrearranged and rearranged radical precursors. Thus, if the rearranged product is observed, then a radical intermediate is most likely present. In addition, the rate constant for the unrearranged reaction can be determined from the ratio of the products (Figure 2).1,4
Figure 2: Radical Clock Study of [2+2] Photocycloaddition.
It should be noted, however, that failure to observe any rearranged products does not eliminate a radical pathway. Instead, the reaction in question maybe faster than the radical's rearrangement rate, so no rearrangement is observed. In that case, a faster radical clock is necessary.
Thus, the whole idea of radical clock studies hinges on the ability of the radical clock to rearrange. Two of the most popular radical clock rearrangements are the cyclopropylmethyl and the 5-hexenyl types (Figure 3).3,5 The cycloproylmethyl undergoes a very rapid ring opening rearrangement, which is enthalpically favorable, in order to relieve angle strain. Likewise, the 5-hexenyl radical rearranges extremely fast to give the five-membered ring; formation of the five-membered ring is both entropically and enthalpically more favorable than formation of a cyclohexyl ring.
Whole "horlogeries" (in French, denotes a store where clocks are sold)1 have been developed ranging from primary alkyl radicals to the benzylic radical clocks (Table 1).1,3,6 (Note: This table is not meant to be all inclusive, instead it gives a general flavor of the types of radical clocks used). As can be seen, the whole span of rate constants is represented from the slowest to the fastest. The fastest known radical clocks are at the edge of the rate of transition state collapse which has been calculated to be around 1x1013 s-1.9 Also, it is worth noting that the majority of radical clocks fall into the primary alkyl radical category. Why this is so is not very clear since heteroatom radical chemistry is fairly extensive.
Table 1: Types of Radical Clocks and Their Corresponding Rate Constants.
It is also interesting to note that like real clocks, the radical clocks can be tuned and made to "run" faster or slower by adding or removing substituents that stabilize the radical. As shown in Figure 4, varying X and Y can increase or decrease the rate constant of the radical clock.3
Figure 4: Tuning Radical Clocks
However, tuning is usually only able to adjust the rate by a factor of ten in either direction. Thus, if the reaction to be studied has a rate very different from the radical clock that is being tuned, one would be better off choosing a radical clock with a comparable rate constant.
As stated previously, these radical clocks are then incorporated into the molecule to be studied at the position where a radical is believed to be formed. The reaction is then run and product analysis is done to see if any rearranged product due to radical formation is observed. Examples of the use of radical clocks to probe mechanisms include the [2+2] photocycloaddition.
Radical intermediates were proposed for the [2+2] photocycloadditions of enones by Bauslaugh in 1970. This was supported by a study done by Rudolph and Weedon in which the photocycloaddition of cyclopentenone and vinylcyclopropane gave the expected cyclobutyl containing compounds (II and III) as well as the ring opened compounds (I and IV) (Figure 5).4 In the experiment, the vinylcyclopropane acted as the masked cyclopropylmethyl radical clock. In the reaction, as shown in Figure 5, the vinylcyclopropane can add intitally to produce four distinct radical intermediates. Of these, 2 and 3 lead to the expected cyclobutyl containing compounds (II and III). However, intermediates 1 and 4 have the radical formed so that a cyclopropylmethyl radical is present. This radical can rapidly rearrange as shown in Figure 3 leading to the ring opened products I and IV. The presence of these rearranged products indicates the formation of a diradical intermediate in the mechanism.
Figure 5: [2+2] photocycloaddition of cyclopentenones and vinylcyclopropane.
In 1975, Brace and Van Elswyk used the 5-hexenyl radical clock to show that the reductive dehalogenation of 1-perfluoroalkyl-2-iodoalkenes with zinc and acid was radical in nature (Figure 6).10 During the reaction, a radical intermediate is formed beta to the perfluoroalkyl group. This radical is now part of the 5-hexenyl radical clock and will undergo rearrangement in competition with reduction. As can be seen, more than 75% of the product isolated was the rearranged cyclopentyl perfluoroalkyl compound, indicating the presence of a radical in the mechanism.
Figure 6: Zinc/Acid Dehalogenation of perfluoroalkyl-iodoalkenes.
As a last example, Peralez and co-workers have used radical clocks to demonstrate the free-radical nature in Grignard reagent formation.11 It has been proposed that Grignard formation proceeds through the chain pathway shown in Scheme 1.14
Scheme 1: Proposed pathway for Grignard formation.
It was believed that a single electron transfer (SET) from magnesium to the alkyl halide occurred followed by fragmentation to give the alkyl radical and the Mg(I)X· species. To test this, researchers used an endo-5-(2¢ -haloethyl)-2-norbornene in which an endo-5-ethyl-2-norbornenyl radical was expected to be formed (Figure 7).11 This radical could then possibly cyclize with a rate constant of 1x107s-1. Table 2 gives these results, as can be seen, significant amounts of rearranged product are observed confirming the presence of radicals.11
Table 2: Reaction of endo-5-(2¢ -haloethyl)-2-norbornene with Mg° .
Further use of radical clocks in mechanistic studies are seen in the reduction of alkyl halides with sodium napthalenide12, the reaction of enones13, the Wittig rearrangement14, the reductive elimination reactions of dialkylmercury compounds15,16, dioxirane dihydroxylations17, and electrophilic fluorinations.18
It worth repeating here that failure to form rearranged products does not absolutely exclude a radical mechanism. The reaction in question may be faster than the radical clock used, or perhaps the substituents cause the clock to "run slower" than expected, leading to slower rearrangement. However, if even the fastest radical clock does not produce rearranged products, then a radical intermediate is deemed highly unlikely.
Despite this drawback, radical clocks have become increasingly important in probing the mechanisms of enzymes. This is because of two reasons. One, if any rearranged products are observed, then a radical must have been formed at some time and can confirm or support a radical mechanism. Secondly, the environment created in the active site of an enzyme makes the use of radical clocks ideal. This is because the active site has the capability of stabilizing any intermediate, radicals included, formed in the reaction process. Thus, the longer the radical is present, the higher the probability of seeing rearranged products.
By knowing the rates of these rearrangements, it is then possible to probe a mechanism for radical character and also measure the rate constant for the reaction of interest. One such enzyme that has been studied extensively is methane monooxygenase (MMO), which converts an inactivated C-H bond in methane into a C-OH to produce methanol and liberate energy.
This enzyme is an optimal system to utilize radical clocks because MMO can oxidize a wide variety of substrates, therefore, radical clock substrate probes can potentially derive mechanistic information about the hydroxylation step in the enzyme mechanism. The debate revolves around if during the hydroxylation reaction there is formation of a discrete substrate radical intermediate or if reaction proceeds through a concerted mechanism, where an oxygen atom inserts into a C-H bond and would not involve a radical. To establish the presence of a radical intermediate Liu et al. utilized four radical clock substrates, all having the cyclopropylcarbinyl skeleton (Figure 8).9
Figure 8: Four substrate radical clocks.
This is important because radical formation in these systems result in rapid ring opening, on the order of 108 s-1 and higher. What they were hoping to find was that if a radical intermediate was formed, there would be a good chance that the radical would isomerize to form, ultimately, a rearranged alcohol product.
Hydroxylation of these four substrates with MMO from M. capsulatus (Bath) were carried out at 45oC.7 Products were isolated by thorough extraction of the reaction mixture with diethyl ether or ethyl acetate. Isolated products were then analyzed with GC-MS. Identification of product components were carried out by comparing mass spectra of the products to those of authentic standards. Quantitation of products were obtained by internal standard method. The results are shown in Table 3.9
Table 3: Results from study.
The results of using the four hydrocarbon substrates as mechanistic probes in oxidations catalyzed by the MMO of M. capsulatus (Bath), all showed no observable rearrangement (meaning, less than 1% formed during the hydroxylation reaction). In every case, the major product(s) observed corresponded to the unrearranged alcohol. This suggest the hydroxylation reaction in M. capsulatus (Bath) does not involve radical formation.
The essence of radical clocks, as stated earlier, is to have an indirect method for determining the relative rates of radical reactions using essentially an irreversible intramolecular rearrangement as a mechanistic probe. If hydrogen atom abstraction from trans-2-phenylmethycyclopropane (1, Table 3) were to occur, the resulting cyclopropylcarbinyl radical could either rearrange and then be hydroxylated (1b, Table 3) or be hydroxylated before rearrangement occurred (1a, Table 3). Essentially, the two reactions (isomerization to form the rearranged product and trapping to form the unrearranged product) are competing and the relative compositions of products 1a and 1b will be dependent on the relative rates of trapping versus that of rearrangement. Generally stated, if, ktrapping > krearrangement then, the formation of product 1a will dominate the formation of product 1b, even though the formation of product 1b goes through the formation of the more stable secondary radical. These competitive kinetic reactions strongly suggest the presence of a radical intermediate and can give information of the relative lifetime of this intermediate along with the rate constants for radical trapping.
Using the rate constants for rearrangement of the corresponding cyclopropylcarbinyl radical (radical clock) the trapping rate constants for a radical intermediate would have to be at least 4x1013s-1 , 1x1013s-1 , 4x1010s-1 , 3x1011s-1 at 45oC for the formation of 1b, 2b, 3b, and 4b from Table 3 (assuming that a radical intermediate was formed). This estimation was calculated by the known rate constant for ring opening, k rearrangement , according to the equation below.
ktrapping= krearrangement([unrearranged alcohol]/[rearranged alcohol]).
The general trend seems to be that the trapping rate must be 100 times in magnitude larger than the rate of reorganization to totally negate the formation of rearranged product. However, it is known that the rate constants of trapping can not exceed the rate constants of decomposition of a transition state (1x1013 s-1). Since the radical rearrangement is already on the order of 1x1011 s-1 , it is very unlikely that the trapping reaction can be faster. Therefore, the absence of ring-opened (rearranged) products indicates that no radical intermediate was formed in hydroxylation.
More recently, with the increasing number of radical clock substrates capable of detecting even shorter-lived radicals, the question of a radical based intermediate in MMO, isolated from M. trichosporium OB3b, was studied.7 Jin and Lipscomb utilized methylcubane as the radical clock substrate since this relatively rigid hydrocarbon system undergoes a rapid rearrangement at a rate of 3x1010s-1. Methylcubane can potentially be hydroxylated at a number of positions, all of which lead to different products. If, a radical-based mechanism were occurring, the radical could be generated by homolytic cleavage at the C-H of the side chain methyl group or the C-H of the cubyl group, which would ultimately lead to cubylmethanol and different methylcubanols as products (Figure 9). In kinetic competition with this reaction is the fast rearrangement, which could lead to a rearranged alcohol product assuming that the radicals live long enough to rearrange (Figure 9).7
The results of Jin and Lipscomb's study reveal that upon reaction of this methylcubane substrate with MMO from M. trichosporium OB3b (in the presence of NADH and O2) yielded several different products in varying compositions in the reaction GC trace and the product profiles. The lowest intensity peak, which is made up of 3 overlapping peaks, was attributed to the three possible methylcubanols resulting from hydroxylation at the cubyl C-H positions (2-, 3-, and 4-methylcubanol). The medium intensity peak corresponded to hydroxylation at the C-H of the side chain methyl group to form cubylmethanol. The most interesting result came from the highest intensity peak. They found that this peak was a rearranged product from the radical probe, specifically RP2 (Figure 9B). This assignment implies the formation of the cubylcarbinyl radical during the reaction, which would be consistent with the proposed radical-based reaction pathway. When this same radical clock (methylcubane) was used as a substrate in M. capsulatus (Bath), no rearranged alcohol product was observed, as indicated in the product distribution chart (Table 6). These results, as stated earlier, support the notion that a significant component of the hydroxylation reaction pathway does not proceed through a radical intermediate from M. capsulatus.
Table 6: Product distributions.
The problem with studying these radical clock probes to rationalize the presence or absence of a radical intermediate is that a major underlining assumption has to be made as far as the reactivity or rate of rearrangement of these substrate in the enzyme's active site. The assumption made is that the rate of rearrangement (krearrangement) in an enzyme active site is essentially the same as that found in solution, where they were calibrated. For some cases this may not be valid assumption because proteins, through steric constraints or other interactions, can alter the reactivity of the probe from that observed free in solution. If the ring opening were impeded, through the intimate association of enzyme and substrate, the clocks would "run slow" in the enzyme active site. This concern was addressed by using probes that do not dramatically change shape on rearrangement, such as the case previously mentioned using methylcubane. The radical formed by H atom abstraction in methylcubane ended up on the same carbon atom so there is no need for substrate translocation in the active site before trapping. The oxidation of methylcubane by MMO from M. trichoporium OB3b yielded several rearranged products. The point here is that methylcubane does not undergo a major change in shape, therefore, if the ring opening reaction is partly masked in the enzyme active site some rearranged product would still be observable. Whereas, using the cyclopropyl carbinyl radical, which undergoes a major change in shape, masking of this ring opening reaction could have drastic effect of the product composition.8 The rate of trapping could potentially completely mask the ring opening reaction and lead the notion that this reaction is not going through a radical intermediate.
Though much debate still revolves around the mechanism of catalysis found in MMO, the use of cyclopropylcarbinyl compounds (Liu et al.) was quite ingenious. The rapid ring opening equilibrium between the cylclopropylcarbinyl radical and its open chain form are the most widely studied of all the radical clock reactions (Refer to Figure 3). This reaction is considered essentially irreversible in the direction that leads to ring opening. This reaction, along with a number of other examples of radical ring opening clocks, is driven by the strain energy of a small ring that is ruptured in the rearrangement. Cyclopropylcarbinyl and its alkyl substituted derivatives have fast radical rearrangements with rate constants for ring opening ranging from ~1x108s-1 to about 4x109s-1, a 40 fold increase in ring opening. The incorporation of radical stabilizing groups on the cyclopropyl ring results in extremely fast ring opening. These radical rearrangements can be used to probe mechanisms to determine if radical intermediates are formed.

It has been reported that the rate constant for the isomerization of 1, 2-di-tert-butylethylene (1) is on the order of k1= >3.2x105, making this a reasonable radical clock for measurement of radical reaction in the middle region of the kinetic scale. In contrast, the rate of isomerization of di-tert-butylacetylene (2) is 5000 slower than that compound 1, making this reaction kinetically insignificant and essentially a useless radical clock. Explain these results.
Answer 1:
During the rearrangement, a 1,2 alkyl shift occurs and the resulting transition state (or intermediate) has a three center cyclic structure and there is considerably more strain energy in the alkylidenecyclopropane (B).Reference to Question 1:

Question 3:
It has been proposed by Ruzicka and coworkers that the radical clock studies of MMO from M. trichosporium OB3b with 1,1-dimethylcyclopropane yield results which are consistent with a radical intermediate. However, Ruzicka and others have proposed an alternative mechanism? What could this be?
Answer 3:
This alternative mechanism is a cationic mechanism in which MMO abstracts an H- from the substrate. This can cause the same type of rearrangement in the cyclopropyl group in the cationic mechanism as in the radical mechanism.

|NEAT: With such a harmonious symphony of aromas, Courvoisier Napoleon Fine Champagne deserves to be savoured neat, its complex finish allowing it to linger lovingly in the mouth. Conventional wisdom says that cognac should be enjoyed in a Snifter glass but the best way to savour its rich aromas is to use a tulip cognac glass, because its shape ensures the deep and rich aromas dominate, rather than being overpowered by the alcohol. Try nosing a small serve in both a balloon and tulip glass you will quickly notice the difference.
|Food pairing
|FOOD PAIRINGS: The aromas and flavours of Courvoisier Napoleon Fine Champagne can be perfectly paired with a strong hard cheese, like parmesan, or slightly sweeter cheeses, like Beaufort or Gruyere.

I used to allow the full versions of my novels "Alexandra" and "Alice" to be downloaded for free however I have now unpublished both novels.
My novel "Alexandra" was somewhat successful. It was downloaded and read many tens of thousands of times and I received many kind blog comments and emails from my readers. I plan to revise and republish "Alexandra" under my new writing pen-name "Lance Greencastle".
My novel "Alice" had more mixed success. It never really found an audience. I got many more mixed comments and reviews about this story than any other that I have published. I may revise and republish "Alice" at some stage, or I may take the concept and rework it into another story. Either way it will probably be published under my "Lance Greencastle" pen-name.
Thank you for your interest in my work.

Bellator 33 FC: Alvarez vs Huerta
Bellator 33
Date: Oct 21, 2010
Location: Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Venue: Liacouras Center (Temple University)
Broadcast: FOX Sports Net
I'm taking Huerta via Stomp 1st round.
But seriously, I think it will go to a Dec, not sure who will win.
Think this will be FOTN for sure and a FOTY Candidate.
Looking forward to it too, about time we get to see Alvarez in a big fight again. And if that fight wasn't enough, they are giving last season's WW winner Askren his title fight on the same card?
Yeah, it will definately be a good card for sure. If Huerta wins I think he'll get a spot in the next tournament and a shot at Gilbert Melendez. I'm looking forward to Akren taking that title!:thumbsup:
That's what I said. Did I not make that clear?:confused:
I said Melendez should fight whoever wins.
Really like this fight. Roger's a handful for anyone, but Eddie's a beast at lightweight at I believe his wrestling will give him the edge here.
Alvarez by decision.
I know Alveraz has the wrestling advantage but I don't think he has the better wrestling in this situation. Huerta has good enough takedown defense to where I think he can win. His stand up is good enough I think!:thumbsup:
I'm really looking to this fight.
Huerta is one of my favorite fighters. Tough dude, not the most techical fighter, but he has so much heart. I really like the fact that he doesn't run away from a fight, he goes where the fight goes. And i would say this i a reason he didn't reach the top of the UFC LW division. But, for the fans he is an excellent fighter to watch. ANd there is enough time for him to make it back to the UFC or fight Melendez or whatever. I don't even care that he's 1-3 in his last 4 fights. I think it should have been at least a draw against Curran, plus the split decision to Maynard , coming after a one year absence from the ring. I think Huerta has his chance in this fight for sure. The best thing for him to do is, to try and make it a brawl. That would cancel Alvarez's superior technique. And Huerta can take shots and punishement, i am sure of that.
I am also convinced the fight will eventually go to the ground. Alvarez has the advantage here also, his BJJ is superior, but again i have to point out Huerta's heart: he didn't tap on that sick Kimura attempt by Maynard, where i thought his shoulder would pop for sure. That was awesome.
Annyway, i can't wait.
And one more thing: Alvarez may have the advantage in the ring, but i think Huerta will have the crowd behind him, at least the women in the crowd will cheer for him, after the brawl incident.
If Alvarez beats Huerta, the women will be upset.:thumb02:

How can a follower of Jesus look upon the heart-breaking devastation being reported in the aftermath of the earthquake in Haiti and respond by proudly declaring that the God you follow is responsible? I don't understand this.
Do we not believe Jesus when he says, "If you have seen me you have seen the Father"? Are we not convinced that God is merciful when Jesus shows mercy? Are we unmoved by his treatment of the woman caught in adultery? Are we unphased by his compassion for the leper, the blind, the outcast? Can we not fully accept that God, the Father, is just as merciful and loving as Jesus?
"Don't you know me...even after I have been among you such a long time? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, 'Show us the Father'? Don't you believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me?" - Jesus, (John 14:9-10)
Those who believe that the tragedy in Haiti is the result of their being judged for their sinful practices must consider the following:
1 - 80% of people in Haiti are Catholic.
2 - America is the world's largest exporter of pornography in the world.
3 - The United States of America is principally a transit and destination country for trafficking in persons. It is estimated that 14,500 to 17,500 people, primarily women and children, are trafficked to the U.S. annually.
4 - Poverty is not the evidence of God's judgement. Neither is wealth an evidence of God's favor.
"The brother in humble circumstances ought to take pride in his high position. But the one who is rich should take pride in his low position, because he will pass away like a wild flower" - (James 1:9-10)
"Listen, my dear brothers: Has not God chosen those who are poor in the eyes of the world to be rich in faith and to inherit the kingdom he promised those who love him?" - (James 2:5)
5 - Suffering, natural disasters and tragedy are all opportunities for those who walk in the light to bring hope to those in the darkness.
"As he went along, he saw a man blind from birth. His disciples asked him, "Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?" (Jesus answered) "Neither this man nor his parents sinned," said Jesus, "but this happened so that the work of God might be displayed in his life. As long as it is day, we must do the work of him who sent me. Night is coming, when no one can work. While I am in the world, I am the light of the world." - (John 9:1-5)
We, the followers of Jesus, must change our attitudes about sin, and most importantly, about sinners.
First, we must remember that we also are sinners. There is no "Us and Them" here because we are still struggling with sin ourselves, even though we know the Savior and are in fellowship with Christ. Sin is our enemy and we struggle with it daily.
"If we claim to be without sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. If we claim we have not sinned, we make him out to be a liar and his word has no place in our lives." - (1 John 1:8-10)
Our response to the distress in our world is to humble ourselves and pray and confess our own sins to God and cry out for people to be healed and saved - not judged and condemned.
"If my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land." - (2 Chronicles 7:14)
It is the people of God who need to humble themselves and turn from their wicked ways in order for God's healing and forgiveness to fall - not the "sinners".
We need to erase this sentence from our minds:
"If only those sinners would get saved, the world would be a much better place".
The idea being that, if there were more people in the world just like us, then everything would be perfect...because of course, we are so much better than all of "Those People" who are not like us.
What God says needs to happen first is that we humble ourselves. That means we don't use statements like "If only those people would be more like us, everything would be wonderful". Humble people don't talk like that...or think that way either.
Jesus reminds us that the Father allows rain to fall on the just and the unjust as well. Because of this, whenever we show mercy to the unbeliever, or love to our enemy, we are being like our Father in Heaven. He is loving. He is merciful. He mourns with those who mourn and rejoices with those who rejoice. We should do the same.
Finally, we must remember that the time for the judgement of our sins is not in this life. This comes later, at the end of time and the return of Christ. For now, we are in a season where God waits beause he is not willing that any should perish. This is a season of mercy, not a season of judgement.
We would also do well to remember how Jesus will judge us on that day. When it comes he will divide the sheep from the goats based on how well they loved those who were the victims of poverty, or of tragedy, or injustice.
The tragedy in Haiti is an opportunity for the people of God to respond with compassion and love. Let us focus our attention on being light in the darkness. Let us bring hope to the hopeless. Let us not assign the blame to the victims while we sit in luxury.
"A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another." -Jesus (John 13:34-35)

Hi Keith.
There is one in the universe into JUDGING, his name is satan. He has completely pulled the wool over the eyes of the Christian world. The great deceiver never takes credit for his work. Christians seem only too eager to let Father, God be responsible for evil acts. Friends, let's get to know the Creator, let's
really 'know' Jesus, let's dwell in the secret place and abide in Him.

So when we installed the floors in the new area of the gym we did it exactly like we did the in the old area. There was one critical difference. The sub-floor in the new area is wood. The adhesive in between the mats stuck to the wood and instead of the floor "floating" it was stuck down in narrow strips. Summer came, the rubber expanded, and we were left with little floor mohawks. The picture you see above is Carson fixing the mohawks. Just wanted to let you guys know that we notice the little things, we care, and we improve them as soon as we can. If you ever experience something at WCF that's less than stellar let me know so we can take care of it.

We've seen so many of them on store shelves for years. Packages and kits that make a meal or dessert, and all you do is add water or just a few ingredients. I've passed them up thousands of times, but this shopping trip was different.

Cherry Tartlets and Cherry Pioneer Pie
Antique shopping this week I stumbled upon a vintage Popeil's Pie Maker and Sandwich Grill. Two small metal rounds close like a clamshell and are attached to a metal rod with wooden handles. Place two pieces of pie or bread dough with filling into the rounds and you have a vintage version of today's Hot Pocket.
The Tale of Two Rice Dishes; Summer and Winter Risotto
This month I'm sharing two beautiful rice dishes for two different seasons, both from the heart of the Venato region of Italy.
Summertime Coffee Cakes
Children are finding their way into the kitchen like never before, creating a first of its kind kids' cooking craze. Summer is a fantastic time to head into the kitchen with them to bake up something simple and delicious!
Lancer's Spinach Salad
Because June is National Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Month, let's grab a green and make magic out of it! Fresh spinach is so plentiful right now and, because spinach salad continues to be an all-time favorite, I want to share a recipe that was a signature dish many years ago at our family restaurant, "D'Atri's" at Lake Tahoe, Calif.
Five Generation Chocolate 'Eureka' Cake
Eureka! I've discovered a decadent, rich and moist chocolate cake with a smooth and creamy chocolate frosting just in time for Valentine's Day.
Spring Training Sausage and Peppers
You never really know exactly when something becomes a ritual, but we know for certain that Cactus League in Arizona is one of our most cherished rites of spring.
Momma's Minestrone Soup
I came across an article on a natural news website recently about victory gardens. It said that during World War II, 20 million family gardens were producing 8 million tons of food that helped provide nourishment needed by soldiers to keep them fighting strong.
All Things Pumpkin
I had to kick off the fall harvest season with two of my very favorite pumpkin recipes. Grandma Gertie's Pumpkin Pie will put a grin on your face while you're licking the plate clean. Many thanks to Sharman Hickman of Hickman's Family Farms for sharing her Grandma's treasure.
New Mexico Chile Verde
I'm always looking for "the one." You know, the one recipe in any ethnic food category that you can count on time and time again to be a crowd pleaser.
My Favorite Summer Salads
The hotter it gets, the lighter the fare. That's how we survive and stay nourished during July in Arizona.
Momma's Tiramisu
I always think of May as Momma's month. It's a great time to thank her for all of the wonderful recipes she has passed along to me so I can share them with you.
Willa's Blue Ribbon Pecan and Cinnamon Rolls
It's April, and that means I pull out one of my favorite recipes for Easter brunch.

"I may look like a nice Jewish girl from New Jersey, but inside I'm a 50-year-old, heavyset black man with a big thumb, like Wes Montgomery," says jazz guitarist Emily Remler, 24, whose big thumb—i.e., rhythmic authority—and other talents have brought her a successful debut LP, Firefly, as well as festival dates from Concord, Calif. to Berlin. Says jazz great Herb Ellis: "I've been asked many times who I think is coming up on the guitar to carry on the tradition, and my unqualified choice is Emily." Respected L.A. Times critic Leonard Feather pegged her as jazz's 1981 Young Woman of the Year. Explains Remler of her uncommon pursuit: "No one ever told me that girls shouldn't play guitar like that."
Raised in Englewood Cliffs by "totally nonmusician" parents—a meat broker and a housewife—Remler began strumming folk guitar at age 8, and progressed to cloning Keith Richard, Jimmy Page and Jimi Hendrix rock solos. "Listening to music, I found I could sing all the parts," she recalls, "bass line, horn line, harmony." At 18, Remler earned a two-year degree from Boston's Berklee College of Music. She moved to New Orleans and became house guitarist at a club that booked the likes of Joel Grey, Robert Goulet and Nancy Wilson, then headed for New York. She regularly backs Brazilian singer Astrud Gilberto or teams with bassist Eddie Gomez and drummer Bob Moses, and she recently wrapped an onstage musical stint in the L.A. company of the Duke Ellington musical Sophisticated Ladies.
"My parents finally took me seriously after I got my LP out," Remler says. "At least they've given up on me just getting married and having children."
When not on the road, she shares a Manhattan apartment with former Buddy Rich pianist Mike Pellera, 25. "If I'd become a rock musician and dressed up in black leather, I'd probably be rich," Remler speculates. "But you can't be in jazz for the money."
Celebrities and less famous folk share a common foe: athletic injuries. "Professional athletes have trainers assigned to them for rehabilitation," notes Paul Gagnon, 25. "But nonpros are told by their doctors to go home and take it easy, with no further education." Gagnon's PJG Exercise & Equipment of Santa Monica, Calif. bridges the gap. Injured stars like Michael Douglas (left), who's coming back from a knee injury, flock to him for advice. Gagnon has built home gyms for director William Friedkin and Motown Records founder Berry Gordy and mapped out exercise strategies for Lily Tomlin and Steve Martin.
Gagnon stresses gradual training. "You can't do it all at once," he says from experience. While a junior at the University of Wisconsin in 1977 (he is from Eau Claire), he broke two ribs in a sledding accident, collapsing a lung and rupturing an artery. Hospitalized three weeks, he bled internally, and his weight fell from 220 pounds to 158. But Gagnon paced his recovery and after a year was running six miles a day.
Armed with some classroom health knowledge (he was a phys ed and health major) and a sense of "mission," Gagnon quit school and headed West. Two years later he opened PJG. Recently he put Robin Williams through a program of 300 to 500 sit-ups a day to prepare for Garp. "The body thrives on having demands put on it," says Gagnon, a bachelor. "As the body gets better, life gets better."

Those seeing symptoms resolve or lessen are probably experiencing that simply b/c of the increase in saturated fat (and other nutrients) supporting improved progesterone production.
Continuing on from another thread on the topic of period problems... my period has gotten so much worse since going primal/paleo! Has anyone else experienced the same? I had adopted vegetarianism about 2 years before my first menstruation and for years I never experienced such intense depression or bad pain as I do now, although it was very very scant before reintroducing meat into my diet to the point of not even needing to use towels or tampons (I know that's really bad) and it would last maybe 24 hours 2 days max! Now it's heavier, I feel like I'm getting scraped out with a spatula and the depression is unbelivable, I literally had no will to live for a few days there. I used to get in an exceptionally good mood on my period wierdly enough in my vegetarian days. I'm also getting a bit narky which never used to happen. I'm not sure if it's that now I'm getting plenty of iron now and so I'm having a very healthy and so difficult period or whether my horomones are after getting out of whack from the meat or some other changes to my diet. I'm confused! yesterday I took two neurofen plus and I was still in considerable pain normally I fell fantastic after two of those bad boys. I was thinking evening primrose oil might be worth taking and Cillkat kindly suggested Krill oil so I'm going to order some on iherb, but if anyone has any insight into what's going on it'd be great.
My primal adventures:
Cooking, nutrition, gardening, foraging, preserving, photography
Those seeing symptoms resolve or lessen are probably experiencing that simply b/c of the increase in saturated fat (and other nutrients) supporting improved progesterone production.
I would say that your hormones are probably adjusting. A not-so-good diet (especially if you were eating a good amount of soy) can throw them out of whack, a good diet will bring them more in balance...but there will undoubtedly be an adjustment period.
Yes, and what kat said.
Cillkat--any idea why krill oil was so beneficial for you?

Sorry, I'm the opposite. For me, carbs and junk = short cycles with long, heavy painful periods. Primal and avoiding grains = longer cycles,shorter periods, less flow, less cramps.
I didn't see that vegetarianism per se made the difference for me. I did have more grains as a veggie, but it wasn't so excessive as most seem to assume. With me I think it's mostly the junk in general and fast food type of grains that does it.
Yes, my PMS worsened since going Primal.
I'm only two months in, but my first month was light and a cake walk. Second month almost no cramps. So for me it is much better deal.
Food should be fun--Thomas Keller
Mine was HORRIBLE for the first 3 months. Then afterwards its been MUCH MUCH better. I say wait a bit and see if your hormones even out, and take some Magnesium supplement occasionally to make sure your gettin enough
Natural Selection: http://ichoosenaturalselection.wordpress.com
I had a lot of flooding and some really long periods for a few mos. when I first went Primal (as in nearly 20 days long one month!). I had been very regular and had a consistent length before that. My periods are now back to normal, length-wise and flow-wise. I think my hormones were recalibrating (or possibly increasing). My formerly awful cramps disappeared.

B & O tax rollback
McAuliffe also co-sponsored a successful bill rolling back the business and occupation tax (B&O), which gives service businesses such as architects, beauticians, and janitorial services cuts totalling $34 million this year and an additional $98 million next year.
Both tax-cut bills are on their way to the House for consideration and will take effect immediately if they win approval from the House and are signed by Gov. Lowry.
