Publisher's Description
Stress has become part of our daily lives. We worry about our jobs, our relationships, and our families. And while there's no lack of remedies for anxiety, no solution seems to offer true peace of mind.
John MacArthur, Jr. believes that peace is not only possible, it's a divine mandate. Drawing from a rich legacy of teaching and ministry, MacArthur puts aside cultural cures to uncover the source of our anxiety and stress. Based on solid Biblical insights, Anxious for Nothing shares how we can overcome uncertainty, defeat doubt, and be truly worry-free.
This revised and updated edition includes a guide for both personal and group study and features discovery questions, suggestions for prayer, and activities, all designed to connect life-changing truths with everyday living.
John MacArthur, Jr. is a Bible teacher, author and speaker. For over forty years, John has served as the pastor of Grace Community Church in Sun Valley, California. He has authored or edited more than 150 books. John and his wife, Patricia, have four grown children and fourteen grandchildren.
Product Reviews
wadr2 Stars Out Of 5Not for everyoneFebruary 4, 2015wadrQuality: 2Value: 2Meets Expectations: 2This review was written for Anxious for Nothing: God's Cure for the Cares of Your Soul, John MacArthur Study.Before purchasing this book, I came across a review by a reader "turned off" by the author's insistence that anxiety is a sin. Taking that with "a grain of salt" I purchased the book regardless. After reading the book's introduction (and selections throughout the rest of the book), I was disappointed how heavy-handed the author is in this assertion.
Can anxiety be viewed as a sin that can be dramatically improved by a deeper trust in God? I believe one can find a biblical basis for this argument, thus my interest in this book despite that negative (but honest) review. However, people with anxiety disorders often have physiologic and/or anatomic changes in their brains as well, much as those with, if you will allow, with all due respect, Parkinson's disease, a stroke or a brain tumor do. Anxiety disorders do not reside merely in the soul or spirit but (also) in the body. Furthermore, anxiety disorders often arise from a dysregulation in determining (i.e. overvaluation of) what concern is worth one's attention rather than a prideful resistance to trust. In the case of obsessive compulsive disorder, the individual is often trying to be responsible and do the right thing, often out of concern for others. At its source, it is an error in judgment rather than willful disobedience. I doubt those afflicted with anxiety would consider worrying a "favorite pastime" as the author suggests it is. To further criticize without compassion someone with an anxiety disorder may exacerbate the condition.
The author emphasizes that the "Lord Jesus Christ, through His divine power, 'has granted to us everything pertaining to life and godliness, through the true knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and excellence' (2 Peter 1:3)." Would he also insist that if the individual with the brain tumor truly believed in and trusted the Lord, he would be granted a cure? (Again, I don't mean to minimize that individual's condition, but neither should we minimize someone's anxiety.)
The author contends that most books put out by "evangelical publishing houses" are "superficial," "formulaic," and "anecdotal," but then proceeds to cite his own anecdote, reveal his lack of deep understanding of anxiety disorders (as one example, contrary to what he seems to suggest, panic attacks are usually characterized by physiologic symptoms that appear out of the blue, without a specific cognitive worry aside from the anxiety about having a panic attack), and present his own formula for treatment.
I usually do not write reviews as I'm not sure I have anything important to add beyond what others have already written. In this case, I felt compelled to offer my input because I probably AGREE with most of the author's assertions. However, I'm concerned (worried?) that unless the reader is already totally on-board (in which case the book has limited value), the reader could understandably be "turned-off" and not only not benefit from the potentially and powerfully helpful and valid points but also turn away from a gospel that offers grace and truth, simply because the book, at least in my opinion, doesn't offer enough of both. In a way, I hope I'm wrong, of course, and that this book is helpful to those who would truly benefit from God's power, love and mercy. (I would also not be willing to offer this review as any more than one person's initial viewpoint, not publishable in a more formal format without more in depth study, contemplation and understanding.)
The author is troubled by "the disdainful attitude that Scripture, apart from modern psychology, is inadequate for dealing with anxiety and life's other woes." He seems to believe the polar opposite. I suggest that both can be helpful (with the evidence being less well studied and more anecdotal in the case of Scriptures than modern psychology).
(For a more balanced approach, check out Ian Osborn's works, although they deal primarily with OCD. Also, if you do read this book, consider skipping the Introduction so the author's bias might not detract as much from the rest of his message. It's hard to overlook, thus my failure to finish the book despite repeated attempts.)

Hey there,
The flood has been mopped up, and the floor mopped with bleach and then with the eucalyptus disinfectant. Still doesn't smell great, but not too bad. Another mop wouldn't go amiss. The workshop floor was such a mess there's probably bits I didn't get to. Didn't have to throw too much away, but there were things on/near the floor in both rooms that had to go, and there might be more - all the items in the darkroom that were affected are in the middle of the floor now, some just need a wipe with disinfectant around the base, but others might be damaged, and I wouldn't use the kettle. Ick.

Here's a link to my submission if it can't be shown on the forum.
A pic of Himiko as she stands showing sadness and fear as the virtual world becomes reality. She was selected as one of the "players" by her friends, as well as having to kill others. So far, she has only encountered other males, unsure if there are other females on the island.
Used pencil-grid method to doodle, then pen inked. Scanned and colored with Adobe Photoshop. Took about a week, but finally got it done!
My entry.

If you have not seen episode two probably best not to read this.

My cover is from episode two.
The events of which were discussed by Himiko but never shown.
As such this is my interpretation of the three games that Himiko played while logged into BTOOOM! with Sakamoto's team after he invited her along when one his team members logged off. Sakamoto is the highest ranked player in Japan and as such in just three games Himiko's rating increased by 20k.
The scene being shown here is of one of the opposition being so preoccupied with wondering were Sakamoto is that he has not noticed Himiko sneaking up behind him. Deciding this is as good a chance as any to actually get involved in the game and not merely get carried along, Himiko has let loose with a volley of her cube shaped time delay BIM's.
Bye bye orange suit man!

This is happening to me when I try to watch btooom!
Can I participate anyway?
I already read the manga
My entry
Mi pic shows the insanity of kousuke kira (14) a boy who is sent to the island after killing and raping several women.
Once in the island, sick of being abused by his father, he kill him (that is why he is coved with blood).
Finally he becomes a rival to sakamoto, he is the user of the implosion BIMS (those round things on the sides of his body that suck air and then explode).
Hope you understand because i don't speak english very well.
Good luck!
My Drawing is based on Episode 3 when what seems to be the creator of the video game BTOOOM! is talking to the 'Players' on the cargo plane explaining that they are going to be playing a game of survival; a real life version of the BTOOOM! video game. The 7 gadgets surrounding him are some of the BIM's (Bombs) the 'Players' can use to help them win the game, each of the BIM's have different properties. Under the BTOOOM! logo I have drawn part of a parachute from when the 'players' where dropped onto the island, the BIM's that Ryōta Sakamoto starts off with, the Sonar Chips that the 'players' have to collect in order to get off of the island and a case that holds necessary provisions for a few days survival (these get dropped in at certain times during the day). I have used the Island that is the location for 'the game' as the background image for my drawing. Oh I also drew a butterfly thats landed on the case!
Well that's my submission with a detailed explanation XD I'm pretty proud of it, one of the best drawings I've done in years.
Yes I'm done YAY!!! I love this anime and can't wait to watch for the next episode!
In this picture I wanted to portray fear, yet determination. These two both fear the fact of killing, but are both determined to get off this island alive. I tried to make sure I have most of the important qualities of this "game", such as the bombs, the radar, and the fact that they are stuck on an island. This picture illustrates both running away for their life with an explosion behind them.
I hope you guys like it :3

For description:
Spoiler Alert! Click to show or hide
This illustration is based off of episode 4 when Sakamoto first encounters Kira Kosuke. It is with this meeting that Kira first looses his senses and mindlessly succumbs to the game, attacking Kira head on. The moon and the color yellow both represent insanity. Kira has been called crazy by other characters, but Sakamoto also loses his mind, per se, in the battle with Kira, so the symbols apply to Sakamoto's first delusional moment. The color yellow is also reflected in both of their eyes, to show that they are completely gone at the moment.
A broken mirror can mean multiple things. One such meaning is that it shows the vulgar side of oneself(Kira) while another meaning is that you can no longer see yourself or you are unaware of yourself(Sakamoto since he is not aware of anything but winning BTOOOM! during the duration of his battle with Kira).
this is the one I am going to enter as final.. It has no special time period just that this is the situation he as the main character finds himself in. Bombs are always directed at him.
sorry for got the jewel???
wanta be an old fart...
My printer doesn't have any color that's why the template is in black in white (TT ^ TT) All well, I'm going to keep this booty-ful picture in my folder.
My cover is about Episode 3: Ryouta saw three parachute with the case fall down and know that there's food is in there. When he reaches at one case, a woman got it first and got exploded by Oda's bomb, the guy in glasses, (bomb he use next to him). Ryouta was frightened that what if he got it first and fell for his trap. Oda took her radar and left with the case. But Ryouta was determined to get the other parachute. After that, Ryouta went to the other parachute with Taiga and checked if anyone was there. One person was running away from the parachute with the case. When Ryouta reaches to the other parachute, he saw a kid, ( Kousuke Kira), that has blood on him and is standing next to a half dead body and a tree with a giant hole in it *this was at the very end of episode 3*.
This is from ep 3 where Sakamoto climbs up to see a plane dropping off suitcases.
The background has some green lines that are meant to symbolize that its a game. The reason why i did this was because he was just told that this is actually a game and he now sees the island in that way. I have also made some smoke and fire to show the people fighting over the briefcases.
Took me 2 days.
does she need to do that same pose for every contest? people don't want bitemarks in their prizes. also way to bend the spine on that manga! show some respect to those who collect.
Okay this is my entry! I drew Himiko.... I did my best to replicate the 2nd ep with her scared face.. for my background..i did a lightning bolt because you know how you feel this shock feeling after being scared or for some other reason that really caught your attention...I did that to show her first witnessing her first murder. For the blood text...Was to show how grusome BTOOOM is lol... as for the glowing eyes... that was to idicate "what did i just see?" type of feeling... and for the dark shadowing... its suppose to show her feelings of being alone.
I wanted to illistrate her fear of first witnessing a murder in episode 2. I think this is what makes her first impression of all men...that they are all "scum." This point is the most scariest moment in her life because she is stuck with a murderer and another guy who seems nice but is actually a pervert. Later on she strives to survive and is determined to show no fear.
A lot of great posts so far...EVERYONE!!! GOOD LUCK!!
So excited ~
All I can say.
On to colouring! Can I make it by tonight XD
Here is my entry. I created it myself in 3D. I hope that counts as a drawing. If not it was still fun to do.
This scene is a cut scene from the opening of BTOOOM!. It was cut because it's a spoiler of a new mode found later in the series that puts the bomb in it's most powerful mode. Crunchyroll mode. In crunchyroll mode the bomb will fill all hearts with joy and unit them against a common evil.
EDIT: nvm, sister told me scanners broken so i cant scan and touch up, this is best I can do with an iPhone, sorry if quality sucks
Well, my cover is supposed to represent the first fight between two BTOOOM! players (as far as I know), ryota sakamoto and kira kosuke. I drew sakamoto in the foreground with his chin up an a grin to show how relaxed and confident he is because in that battle sakamoto treats it like a BTOOOM "match" and relies on his in-game skills and experience to defeat Kira. I have their in-game characters fighting behind them respectively because again he believed it was a game and not reality. Anyway, hope it makes sense and yes that is blood on his face if ur wondering.
Free handed entire thing with a lead pencil, sorry I couldn't print template

Short Platinum Pixie with Bangs
What makes this pixie really stand out is the short length and uneven bangs. The beautiful thing about having a short hairstyle like this, is the multitude of styles a women can pull off. Ruffing it up or combing them down properly or even turning it into a cool pulled back pompadour.

It's a guilty fear for all moms: do we favor one child over another? What does it mean to have a favorite, and how can we do more to make sure all our kids feel equally loved? Check out what Andrew, Chuck and Joanie have to say.
Do You Have a Favorite Child?
I truly do not. I enjoy both of my girls equally.
Nope they are all equal. =)
No but the reason I only had 1 bio child is because he had some health issues and I was afraid I wouldn't give another child all the love and attention they needed. Later on I ended up marrying a man who had 3 boys whose mom had walked out on them so I raised them too. I got 3 more the easy way. lol :)
I only have one child. He is my favorite.
I do, but its ok since I only have 1!
I only have one:)

Since 1993, the United States has provided nearly $2 billion in aid and technical support to help more than 80 countries safely clear landmines and other explosive remnants of war, such as unexploded artillery shells, bombs, and ammunition. However, these hidden hazards can linger for decades, making it essential to build local expertise in partner nations that can take control of this serious humanitarian challenge over the long term.
That's why I was particularly proud to recently spend time with a group of men and women from 14 countries as they completed training sponsored by our office that will give them the know-how they need to lead their countries' efforts not only to make local communities safer, but also to "pay it forward" by helping other countries struggling to recover from conflict.
The 16 students hailed from Afghanistan, Azerbaijan, Cambodia, Colombia, Ethiopia, Iraq, Jordan, Laos, Nepal, Sudan, Sri Lanka, Tajikistan, Uganda, and Vietnam. All currently manage demining programs. All of their countries face significant challenges with landmines and other types of unexploded ordnance. The five-week Senior Managers' Course, hosted by our partners at James Madison University's Center for International Stabilization and Recovery and the College of Business, combined class work to build program management and strategic planning skills with guest lecturers from leading international organizations and nongovernmental organizations active in humanitarian demining. These organizations included the Geneva Center for Humanitarian Demining, Mine Action Resources, United Nations Mine Action Service, United Nations Development Programme, The Marshall Legacy Institute, Mines Advisory Group (MAG), and The HALO Trust.
Landmines and unexploded ordnance inhibit development, disrupt markets and production, prevent the delivery of goods and services, and generally obstruct reconstruction and stabilization efforts. By removing these deadly hazards, we can encourage the socio-economic development needed to further the larger goal of promoting stability and security.
Under the Conventional Weapons Destruction Program -- a partnership among the State Department, the U.S. Department of Defense, the U.S. Agency for International Development, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention -- the United States has provided approximately $1.9 billion toward landmine clearance and conventional weapons and munitions destruction in 81 countries. Initiatives funded include:
- Mine clearance projects by 63 partner organizations, such as the Mines Advisory Group (MAG) and The HALO Trust;
- Mine-risk education to help endangered residents avoid injury by identifying potential hazards;
- Research and development into new demining technologies;
- Training local demining technicians in affected countries; and
- Supporting rehabilitation programs serving those injured by landmines and unexploded munitions.
There will continue to be mines and unexploded ordnance to deal with for the foreseeable future -- after all, even unexploded munitions left from World Wars I and II are still occasionally unearthed across Europe -- but with the right tools and know-how, the problem is manageable. This was a great group of students, and the time they spent at James Madison University provided an ideal opportunity to share information and lessons learned as well as to network, which we hope will not only help them improve their programs when they return home, but strengthen the overall global effort to address landmines and unexploded ordnance.
The United States is proud to be the world's single largest financial supporter of conventional weapons destruction programs, such as humanitarian demining, and to help these countries build their own expertise and take a leadership role in solving the problem.

Dear and respected. Take my cordial love and greetings. I hope kind God is keeping you all in good health. Dear Sir, I read about you and your programmes . I have liked you and your programmes very much. What you are doing , is really praise worthy and mentionable. May kind God always bless you and all your family. may kind God keep the world in peace. May kind God every body a long and healthy life. Mukul N.
Mike in Europe writes:
Although I certainly think that this is a good programme and wish all participants to be able to safely destroy as many mines as possible, I find it strange to read that "The United States is proud to be the world's single largest financial supporter of conventional weapons destruction programs" - isn't it the country that has thrown most of them upon those countries before and don't they export a hell lot of weapons everywhere, making "very good" (?) money?
Something is very wrong with international politics, no matter which party, nation or religion is affected.

I have a 14 mo. old who is the light of my life, but as she is becoming a toddler I am finding trusting my own instincts harder and harder. Especially when out at play groups. She has been walking since she was 91/2 mo. old and is very verbal, she can say a lot of words and is very good at letting you know what she wants. She is in the 95th percentile for height. All of these things add up to a child who is bigger than her friends and more physically adept then her friends. This is causing problems! She get's frustrated very easily and is throwing tantrums all the time. I feel like this has snuck up on me. Lately if a friend takes something or is playing with something she thinks is interesting she goes to them and starts yelling and crying. She has never hit thank goodness but lately she is pretend pushing, she throws her hands up and makes a pushing motion she has never made contact with another child. I am more concerned about the yelling and tantrums when she doesn't get what she wants. I am starting to feel like everyone is looking at me like that mom who can't control her kid. Please help any suggestions or advice on how to tackle this new stage with love and positive discipline.

First, I wanted to let you know that this is completely normal behavior for a 14-month-old! Children this age have huge emotions and little ability to control. I remember both of my children going through this, but it gets better over time.
Second, every mom in that situation would feel that way. We all want our children to behave a certain way around others. I feel immense pressure, especially when I'm with my family, as most people in my family spank their kids.
It's important to realize that this is normal behavior, and that your child is learning how to deal with disagreements but that she is really still a baby. Try not to get upset. Empathize with her. "Gosh, that really upset you!" And state what is acceptable/not. "But we don't hit. Hitting hurts! Instead, let's ask your friend if you can share the toy."
It's important to remember that there is no "quick fix" -- you will have to do this over and over for it to sink in, just like creating a good habit, but it will happen.
I recommend reading Discipline without Distress by Judy Arnall for great tips for each age of your child and specific situations.
It also might help to stay near her while she is playing - not to hover, but to be close to the "action" so you can anticipate situations and help her work through them right away. When my DD went through this phase, I was frustrated that I couldn't visit with the moms at playgroup, but quickly realized that I can visit them for years to come - the opportunity to respond to my daughter's needs at this age comes ONCE in a lifetime! The good news, as Rita said, is that your girl is totally normal!!

External power supplies are used in hundreds of types […]
Honoring the guiding light behind rural electrification
It is quite likely that rural electrification would not have happened without the leadership of Sen. George W. Norris. Nearly 75 years ago the leaders of Norris Electric Cooperative in Newton, Ill. understood that and honored his leadership by naming their co-op for this "founding father" of rural electrification. Today a national fundraising campaign is requesting donations […]

Diving is not just for the Summer Olympics anymore. The sport is about to make waves in prime time, with two competing star-driven reality series coming to TV in 2013. ABC recently announced the series Celebrity Splash, based on a hit show from the Netherlands, while Fox countered with the two-hour special Stars In Danger: High Diving, based on an annual German TV event.
Diving legend Greg Louganis, who signed on to serve as a judge on Celebrity Splash, believes the shows will give diving some needed exposure outside of the Games.

Jamestown Native Shot To Death In Indianapolis
INDIANAPOLIS – A memorial service will be held in Indianapolis today for former area resident Thomas Tefft, 67. Tefft was shot to death in his home in Indianapolis on Friday morning.
The Indianapolis Star reported that according to police, Tefft and his wife, Laura, were victims of a robbery at their home. Laura locked herself in a room, fearing for her life. Thomas was fatally shot.
It is believed the suspect was in his 20s and wearing a ski mask. He drove off in the Teffts' car, a 2009 black Hyundai Sonata. At this time, the police have not apprehended a suspect.
Tefft was born in Jamestown in 1945. He worked in his father's glass shop, Tefft Glass of Dunkirk. Upon his father's death, he took over the business. In 1968, he married Laura Craw in Gerry. The couple had a daughter, Lynn Tefft Hoff, currently of Aurora, Ill., and a son, Wade Tefft of Brighton, Colo.
In 1996, the Teffts relocated from Cassadaga to Indianapolis.
His children have asked the public in Indianapolis for help solving the crime. Wade was quoted as saying on Sunday, "We are asking anyone in the community to help us find my father's killer. There is a cold-blooded murderer loose in the streets of the city tonight. He needs to be found and brought to justice."
According the Star, the subdivision where the Teffts live was developed about 30 years ago and consists of brick ranches on small lots.
Extra security was evident at a nearby elementary school. Angie Mansfield, 52, who heads the homeowners' association said, "They used to be on the homeowners association board. … They were the type of neighbors that were very quiet … but were willing to volunteer their time."
Mansfield added, "Needless to say it is very troubling. It touches all of us."
Other neighbors have said the neighborhood has had problems with crime, notably car break-ins and muggings.
The home of Thomas and Laura Tefft 7882 Harcourt Springs Place in Indianapolis, Ind. Thomas, 67, was reportedly shot by a gunman during a robbery Friday.

"You've got to swim fast to swim fast."
That's Rob Orr, long-time Princeton men's coach, doing his best Yogi Berra impression.
"Swim slow to swim fast."
That's the title of an instructional video that generated some lively discussion on the USMS discussion forum this week.
Who's right? Well, I guess it depends. How's your technique? If you're already relatively "fast" (which usually means efficient), you probably have good technique and would benefit from swimming "fast" (as in hard) to simulate racing.
But if you're not already an efficient swimmer, you probably should be focusing more on slow, mindful drilling than on sprint sets.
It sounds like a chicken and egg problem, but it's not. If you can't swim slow (correctly), you won't swim fast (period).

ZELLIGE - shattered pearl 3.5" hex stock
ZELLIGE - shattered pearl 3.5" hex stock
need a tile that is blue/blush/tan/celadon? OK
our clé shattered pearl is a glaze made up of all these shades- like a pool of colors resembling shattered mother-of-pearl.
this delectable glaze contains sensitive minerals that, when fired, react to the heat in any number of colors. if you are in search of a blue full of moods and movements- shattered pearl is a raucously evanescent take on light, medium and oh, so moody blues.
zellige are terracotta tiles from morocco. zellige (pronounced zill-eejh') acquires its coloring from the historic clay body that is a rich terracotta, inherently forcing it's hue through all the glazes.
if you're tired of the same-ol same-ol, then this tile born from a 10th century tile-making craft has arrived just in time for you! clé zellige is handmade in morocco. formed from the moroccan earth, and baked in kilns fired by burning olive pits.
color variations? it isn't authentic zellige without wild variations of color and shade!
glaze variations? the zellige glazes have a lovely gloss surface that will have specks and flaws and undulations of surface. this varying and glossy finish can best be described as a "sequin-like" surface.
general zellige terracotta tile
how much variation should i expect?
zelliges are created from natural glazes, pigments and terracotta clay. and they are fired in hand made kilns that are fueled using olive pits. all of this hand craft is what makes zellige so magically varied- tile to tile. please enjoy the extreme variation of color, shade and surface texture. if your project does not call out for highly varied tiles, then we suggest a different tile selection than zellige.
what is the standard grout joint size for zellige?
because all zellige is hand cut after firing into the individual tiles, they are crafted to allow for a very tight grout joint. please look at our resource/specification guide, on the zellige product page, for installation instructions.
where can i use zellige tiles?
please see the "usage section" on the zellige product page.
how does the tile ship?
clé tiles ship on pallets via ground by one of the best shippers in the nation- con-way.
ordering questions
why do you suggest i order 10%-15% more for to my measurements?
there is always the potential of breakage during moving and shipping tiles (2%-3%). also, you should always have additional tiles for making tile cuts during your installation, and to store for possible future plumbing repair needs.
what are minimum order requirements?
for in-stock tiles- 1 full box
for standard tiles (non-stock)- 100 sf
for custom orders - 250 sf
when can i expect my order?
in-stock - 2-7 business days
non-stock - 12-14 weeks
custom - 14-18 weeks (after sample has been approved)
can i cancel my order?
you have 24 hours to cancel your order. after that, you are responsible for standard refunds or exchange rules.
are there trade discounts?
yes, please send us an email for your trade discount.
do you sell internationally?
yes, however, there are 500 sf minimum orders for international shipping (outside north america).

Old Man Winter
THUMBS DOWN: We don't know who or what made Old Man Winter so cranky this year, but someone must have egged his house to make him act the way he has this week.
We had plenty of warning of Thursday's storm, but still some people got caught by surprise as they tried to get one more trip home. As with the last storm, we should all be thankful for those who go out and help those people, pull them out of snow drifts and getting them to safe, warm havens.
We can only hope there aren't too many more of these kinds of storms this season.
Time to make merry
THUMBS UP: Bock Fest and Fasching are coming up next weekend. They are a little later than usual, thanks to the later dates for Lent and Easter. But they are still a chance to make merry, especially during the last throes of winter.
The Bock Fest at the Schell's Brewery could also have an impact on this winter. According to tradition, the Bock, or goat, is a sign of winter. The brewery hides seven wooden cutouts of goat heads around the grounds, and if they are all found, spring is supposed to come early. Well, we can always hope.
Graduation rates
THUMBS UP: It's good to see that high school graduation rates in Minnesota are at a 10-year high, and that minority graduation rates had a jump as well.
New Ulm High School's graduation rate for the 2012-13 school year was 92 percentwell above the state average of 79 percent.
Minnesota values education, and getting students through high school is an important part of that. There are still improvements to be made, but the state seems to be doing well.

Hi Bellas,
I love today's makeup...it's become a classic as a neutral with a pop of color on the lower lashline. I often use the same Stila Barbie palette in my personal makeup collection to give me these bright pops of color.
Check out the look!
The look started out pretty plain. I was teaching a mini seminar to a group of high school girls about how to apply interview style, professional makeup. However, I decided I would just go all out. I made the look pop with a bit of teal to the inner half of the lower lashline and I think it really jazzed up the look.
The final look!
Here's What I Used:
Black Radiance Eyeshadow Duo (The color looks pretty but doesn't last unfortunately)
Stila Teal Shadow
Urban Decay Gold Shadow as highlight
Afterglow Cosmetics Cocoa shadow
Sonia Kashuk Glamour Lashes
Tarte Brow Pencil in Medium Brown
Eve Pearl Tan HD Pressed Powder Duo
MAC Blunt Blush
MAC Pearlmatte Face Powder
Kissable Couture Chris Lipgloss
MAC Brave New Bronze lipstick

I'll have pictures from this makeup seminar soon. Stay tuned for tomorrow's post, a Twitter Giveaway!

Man, those pies are Heavy, compared to the ones I make. How many inches? A full meal at any rate!Mark
Not sure about the actual stone temp but I do a 550 preheat for 30mins. Are you baking 6 mins to darken your crust more or melt the cheese? I found by increasing the oil it helps with darkening the crust more.
...Here is one I did in 5 mins without the convection and quarry tiles over it.
Dam that looks like two meals. Pizza one and Crust two. Good show.

Summer is all about seafood, and you can trust a New England winery to have the perfect pairing like this medium-bodied, dry Chardonnay made in small batches by Massachusetts' own Westport Rivers.
Westport Rivers is a family owned vineyard and winery producing estate grown wines from New England's largest vineyard. Our wines include traditional method sparkling wine, Chardonnay, rose of Pinot Noir, riesling and other Alsatian varietals. We are best known for sparkling wines which rival any from around the globe. in addition, we make a variety of crisp, aromatic table wines; in particular, our Chardonnay is stylish with wonderful acidity and lots of fruit. Westport Rivers began in 1982 when Bob & Carol Russell bought an old dairy farm in Westport, Massachusetts. Several years later, the vines arrived as did their oldest son, Rob. Rob and his crew planted the first vines in 1986 and our vineyard has grown into the largest vineyard in New England (and it is all vinifera). Bill Russell, Bob & Carol's second son, joined the team in 1989 to begin making wine. the winery opened to the public during the summer of 1991.

My standard NY style is the 16-inch, so your recipe is just right for me. However, since some of our members may not be able to handle that size, would you mind if I converted your recipe to baker's percents to allow downsizing (or upsizing) your recipe?

In short: Great event, excellent and friendly marshalls. Well done Pewsey Vale Runners another brilliant race.Date of review: February 24, 2009
In short: Helped by good weather, but great organisation, great challenge, and definitely worth doing (yet) again.Date of review: February 24, 2009
In short: Absolutely brilliant, fun, challenging race. Lives up to it's name.Date of review: February 23, 2009
In short: A great event overall, challenging but achievable.In full: Really enjoyed this, definitely the best race I've ever done. Just one grumble really ... for a relative novice like me, having the water stops where you're expecting them is important. Not sure what happened, but they certainly weren't where I expected them to be! Nearly finished me off.Date of review: February 23, 2009
In short: Hilly, muddy, wet, friendlyIn full: Many thanks to the organisers, volunteers and cheerful marshalls. This was my second year - I enjoyed it even more this time, especially the rope ladders! It was great to see some familiar faces from last year and the atmosphere was friendly all round. Definitely worth the long drive, and I'm looking forward to next year.Date of review: February 23, 2009
In short: Hard, challengeing, new bit made it much harder than previous years but that's what it's all about. I'll be back!Date of review: February 23, 2009
In short: A great fun race organised by nice people with a sense of humourDate of review: February 23, 2009
In short: Very tough run / walkIn full: I knew this would be challenging but it was more than that. Being thigh deep in mud was a new experience (and I'm over 6ft). Noticeable that the chatter had stopped by the second hill. The shoewash was horrible - sopping wet running shoes with stones in was not fun even for 500 yds or so! Warm sun at the beginning and end but chilly on the ridge.Date of review: February 23, 2009
In short: NO!! too dangerous, but I am disabled?Date of review: February 23, 2009
In short: Off road funIn full: Excellent organisation, with friendly Marshalls. My 3rd time with this race and its as good as ever,having negotiated the first crossing i ended up on all fours in the mud, its the mud that makes it fun, the shoe wash had the coldest water ever and the hills are demanding. Simply a great run. Date of review: February 23, 2009

Skip to comments.War Crimes Against Southern Civilians
Posted on 08/28/2013 8:03:18 PM PDT by NKP_Vet
This is the untold story of the Union's "hard war" against the people of the Confederacy. Styled the "Black Flag" campaign, it was agreed to by Lincoln in a council with his generals in 1864. Cisco reveals the shelling and burning of cities, systematic destruction of entire districts, mass arrests, forced expulsions, wholesale plundering of personal property, and even murder of civilians. Carefully researched largely from primary sources, this examination also gives full attention to the suffering of Black victims of Federal brutality.

This country isn't torn up enough. Let's tear off 150 year old scabs. The more we hurt the better.
Southerners have to listen daily to people in the media who slander their ancestors., and they never get tired of it.
If someone dares to put the lie to a lot of it, you can depend on a bunch even here on FR to come in and lie like crazy. For that reason I usually do not even post or just post once.
The Threadnaught has cleared the harbor. Setting course to anywhere, speed 14 knots.
Ya lost. After 150 years you should stop crying about it.
There was no point in posting this in the first place.
I was just going to not post but I did want to reply. Yes we lost but at the end there were twice as many dead Yankees as Rebels.
This should be an interesting thread.
I am a southerner, and I argue pro-South on these threads, however, I also believe there is no civility in war, no "war crimes" possible. War is Hell. If you don't like war then do not wage war, and you had best fight to win.
I fully believe the north provoked the fight. I fully believe the south was prepared to engage in war as well if need be. But again, war is a no holds barred fight to exterminate the enemy. It was a war.
Well at least ya got that going for ya. Which is nice.
Might sell a book or two.
Did we?
Sometimes as I sit overlooking the gulf dining on some of the finest seafood and local beers watching Alabama football and also her women I have to wonder...
And that is our national goal isn't it?
God Bless you. God Bless us all.
"Yes we lost but at the end there were twice as many dead Yankees as Rebels."
Listen, if you and I can keep an Amazon employee actually employed for 29.5 hours per week, who cares what books he's loading?
Amen my brother, I'll save you some shrimp...
That's the point. We are brothers. Why in the world are we still kicking each other in the head?
Victimology is the left's favorite pastime.
Sibling rivalry...
New England clam chowder is good with fried gulf shrimp so it is all rather dumb...
It's beyond dumb. It's deliberately destructive.
"There was no point in posting this in the first place."
I have no dog in this fight; however, I disagree. It is interesting to note that the government involved is the same exact government in place today, operating under the same Constitution, Bill of Rights, court system, Congress, and so on. Consider this before prefacing any comment with ..."well, that can't happen HERE, because..."
Well there is a lot of that going around all over..
So now you're bragging about the killing of Americans? Really?
And no, the previous post to you does not justify your response.
Slavery was a horrendous sin. And the consequences of sin of this magnitude ripples across generations.
Practically every year there is a theater release movie, OR a tv movie about the evil South, and the saintly North.
Truth is truth, and should be shared whenever it can be.
You poke just a tiny bit and the hate comes flooding out.
I'm pretty amazed at the reaction of some to a thread on a Civil War history book.
I imagine DUs reaction would be similar to this history book.
Well waaaa! Maybe if you cry a little bit louder more we'll hear you.
Right. Only a liberal can see slavery as evil.
I'm not a liberal. Slavery is evil.
That is exactly the kind of DU post that I'm talking about.
Out of the blue you post that nonsense to me.
Go over to DU and post a thread simply titled, "Southern States" with no comment or article, no subject, and watch the Pavlovian rabid dogs, jump on the thread.
Slavery is evil. Yes or no. Make your stand.
God, you are insane, hijacking this thread and raving out of your mind.
Truly DU like.
When a thread has been so hijacked and killed off as this one, the mods should step in.
You can not bring yourself to condemn slavery?
If to you DU means someone who recognizes slavery as a sin than I accept that label.
I agree. This thread is garbage. From the root.
Mods. Please take this thread down. It is not worthy of Free Republic.
Of course slavery is evil but, while it was practiced in numerous places throughout the world, the U.S is the only country to use it as an excuse to go to war. It was abolished everywhere else through civilized political process. The atrocities committed by the Northern troops against Southerners, both black and white, dwarf any perceived purpose they claimed to justify their actions. By the way, I have read the book and it is very good.
Paul must have missed your memo when he wrote to Philemon.
"I was just going to not post but I did want to reply. Yes we lost but at the end there were twice as many dead Yankees as Rebels".
Correct. And that was fighting with 1/4 the men the Federals had.
The South didn't lose the war, they just ran out of men to fight it.
"But again, war is a no holds barred fight to exterminate the enemy"
Women and children, no-combatants, are not the enemy. No more than the thousands of Plains Indians slaughtered by Sherman and Sheridan and their thugs to make room for the railroad.
Here we go. The Bible is on the side of slavery. You are the saint, I am the sinner.
Sin has consequences. I wish we had never gone down this path.

The reffing was great, I did get a bad call once, but the refs were active and helpful.
The field was clean, all the bunkers were inflated, and when a bunker was loose the refs made sure to pin it down before a game.
The crowd was great and friendly. I'm excited about the next game day.

Topic: working with related models
Hello everyone, I am new to Ruby and to this form. Please correct me if I am posting in the wrong category. Here is my issue.
I currently have two models Company and Facility and they are related in that a Company can have many facilities.
It is set up now that an admin can go to the application and add tombstone information to a Company (60+ fields). What I need to do is allow the admin to add facilities to each company put in and I am not sure on how to approach this. Here are my two ideas:
1 Some how when the question comes up enter facilities which is roughly in the middle of the company new submission form. To leave the new Company form and save that data captured so far and then add Facilities. When finished completing the Facilities section, to jump back into the company profile and continue where it was left off (which would now be an update to the company).
2 Admin full completes adding the company tombstone information and then goes to show where they can click a link that will allow them to add facilities to that company.
I started to do number 2 but being such a rookie (1 week in), I am unsure on how to pass the company id to the new facility form and access it there.
I really hope someone can help
Thanks in advance

The Acton Institute's Rome office led its recent Campus Martius Seminar with Alexandre Havard, the Russian-French author of Virtuous Leadership (2007), Created for Greatness: The Power of Magnanimity (2011) and founder of the Moscow- and Washington, D.C.-based Harvard Virtuous Leadership Institute.
Havard, speaking with Zenit's Ed Pentin in an article following the seminar, said that during today's economic crisis aspiring and veteran entrepreneurs alike are suffering from an improper understanding of the intimate union between humility and magnanimity, even the most religious and virtuous of them:
It's much easier to say to God: 'Do the work in me and I just do nothing. But God very often tells us: 'I will not do it because I have already given you talents through nature; you have to discover those things and do it …Humility is to say: 'I have gifts, I have talents, and they come from God.' You recognize that you have not produced those talents, that they are a gift from him to you. Then magnanimity is to say: 'I have them but I have to make them fructify, I must develop them and multiply them, and put them at the service of the community and the common good. So you see these two things come together. [Talents] are not mine. I have been given them and this is my humility; my magnanimity tells me to multiply them and use them.
Havard agreed to sit down with me recently and talk about the moral and character pitfalls in both the East and the West as well as the inspiration for his virtuous leadership training program. (more…)
