Ordinary Seaman by Francisco Goldman
Book DescriptionThe ordinary seaman is Esteban, a nineteen-year-old veteran of the war in Nicaragua who has come to America with fourteen other men to form the crew of the boat Urus. Docked on a desolate Brooklyn pier, the Urus turns out to be a wreck, the men - without the ability to return to their homes - become its prisoners, and the city of New York is transformed into a mysterious and alluring world they cannot penetrate. Esteban, haunted by his dead lover from the war, eventually gathers the courage to escape from the ship and embarks on a quest for a new life and love in the city. The Ordinary Seaman is both a richly human story of abandonment, loss, betrayal, and the power of love and a modern fable about America's hidden immigrant culture.

We all love us some Channing Tatum and we all love Magic Mike.
Obvs for their very talented dancing skills and, you know, brains.
So when Channing took to Ellen Degeneres' talk show to reveal the first sneak peek preview of Magic Mike Live, well, we jumped straight on top of it and couldn't peel our eyes away from our screens.
Channing revealed that he wanted to make the show to empower women and take away the embarrassing factors of having to go to male revues, saying, "It's been going the other way for long enough now."
So being the stand-up bloke he is, Channing decided to "balance the scales" and bring the show to the women of the world.
The preview of the show on Ellen got pretty darn raunchy and one audience memeber got a lap dance of her very own...
We needn't say more, watch and try to keep your pulse under control...
What's even better news is that Channing could make some camoes!
"I have no issues getting naked... So if I am ever in shape again, ever, ever, ever, then I am going to make tWitch come with me... and absolutely I am dying to do it."
Oh Channing, we love you whatever shape you're in!

Dragon RunBoardgame
- First Edition
In Dragon Run, the players have just raided a dragon's keep, picked up a bunch of loot, and awakened the dragon. Now it's time to flee, ideally making it out with both our treasures and our lives. On each turn, a player can either advance boldly, flee cautiously, or cry like a baby. If you advance boldly, you draw a card from the location deck, which holds three types of cards: one that allows that player to either redraw or stop, one that grants new treasure from the treasure hall, and (of course) the dragon. If you draw the dragon, you lose one health point (out of two), the dragon calms down (i.e., it loses one temper point), and the location deck is reshuffled. If you're injured twice, you die and are out of the game.

Hello everyone,
The TB blooms are gone. I have an iris garden of green pods and red
surveyers tags. It really does change the allure of that side of the garden.
Boo hoo. The JI are just coming into bloom. I need to get out there with my
map and figure out what is what. I planted them in a small garden pond. (10
by 8ft) and put them right into the ponds margin. In winter they are totally
flooded and in summer the water fluctuates depending on how on top of things
I am. (I have a 1 1/2 acre garden and 2 acre vineyard so I am busy busy
busy) Any way they are growing like crazy and need to be dug up and divided.
I have some Higo hybid seedling that I started years ago. As a matter of
fact they were the first iris seeds I ever attempted. It is funny but they
bloom all summer until the first frost. I have taken them into our local
societies meeting in September and astounded everyone. What do you JI people
think of it. Is reblooming uncommon? Is it just a wierd miniclimate that I
have here?


text: So yeah.. I now find myself in a dilemma. I got an ultimatum I do not quite understand. I want to drink myself senseless and just not wake up. But on the other hand.. I can't yet. Can't get myself to do it. So I got an ultimatum basicly by my boyfriend.. To either apparently cheat on him, since he thinks I want to do that or I'll basicly.. Lose him. He at least won't visit me and I'm sure by the way it is, it's more than just a visit he'll cancel. I know it may seem like an easy decision to some people. But I just can't do either. He is the love of my life, my soulmate. I have around a month on me to do this.. And I should tell him when it's done. I can't get myself to do it, because how can that prove my love for him? And I feel sick by the thought, I don't want to hurt either of us that way. But I can't live without him. I know that as a fact. I thought maybe I could just say I did it, but what if he'll ask questions? Since I will have no answer. I don't even remember what or who I was supposed to have written the stuff to. And I did under the influence of alcohol. Plus I'd feel bad for lying, since then he'll think I have.. So yeah.. I'm atm sitting here. Having plans on drinking and at least hurt myself badly. Not suicide.. Not yet at least. And I feel worthless enough as it is, for having written what he says I did. So please don't tell me I'm a bad person, I know that. And with this said. I do not want others to think it's a good idea to hurt yourself or drink, it's just.. Bad ideas and no one deserves to feel the need to. You're all deserving to live and feel good about yourselves.

Washington, we have a problem. Out of ten aircraft carriers three are in major overhauls which leads us to only seven operational carriers!!! Soooo, it a major combat resumes in Korea, we might be able to send two carriers!!!
Oh, obama took the USS Enterprise out of service three years earlier than planned. The Enterprise was planned to be take out of service AFTER the USS Gerald Ford goes into service in 2016!!!
Yes, the Enterprise is in war storage along with three other carriers but it would forut to six months before it would be ready to deploy. You see, it is not just ONE ship, it is a dozen ships and a whole Wing of aircraft all of which need to be re-manned and trained.
There is a saying, you go to war with what you have and right now our Navy, Marines and Army are at their lowest levels than they were before the Attack of Peal Harbor in 1941. Only the Air Force is in better shape but not in the shape it was five years ago.
And a war can be lost before we have fully mobilized! Gone are the days when we had time from the start of a war to build up a response. In WWII it took us several years but back then we had a few years which still cost us over 100,000 dead. Americans. Today a war can be lost in a week with a 100 million dead Americans!

No one "vetted" George W. Bush or Bill Clinton or Bush Senior or Reagan or Carter or Ford or Nixon or LBJ or JFK or Eisenhower, etc.
The reason why not is that there is no procedure in the Constitution or any law for "vetting" presidential candidates. The assumption is that the opponents of the candidates will do the "vetting"---and in fact Hillary Clinton (and McCain too) did do the "vetting." Both of them checked out whether or not Obama was born in Hawaii or born in a foreign country, and when they found that the facts showed that indeed Obama was born in Hawaii and not born in any foreign country, they stopped "vetting."
Obama's birth in the USA is now confirmed far more than any other president's was, and his Natural Born Citizen status has been confirmed by TEN appeals courts, all of which cited the Wong Kim Ark Supreme Court ruling and none of which cited Minor v. Happersett. And, in perhaps the most overwhelming sign of Obama's eligibility being confirmed, not one single member of the US Electoral College changed their vote from Obama to McCain in 2008 or from Obama to Romney in 2012 out of the nutty idea that Obama was not born in the USA or the crazy legal theory that two citizen parents are required to be a Natural Born US citizen. In past elections one or two electors did not follow the votes of their voters in their states, but in these two elections not one switched a vote. And Obama's election was confirmed UNANIMOUSLY by the US Congress in both elections.
Obama has been "vetted."

Do you remember Hurricane Irene from Aug 2011? Shortly after that I ran into two young men who had moped problems. They were from the Tampa area and had a job offering in Norfolk, VA as carpenters but their car died. They got a thousand dollars for it as junk and bough a 50cc moped and headed north.
It you know anything about mopeds, they have only 3 hp and a maximum speed of only 45 mph ..... and they are limited to one person who is not over 220 pounds!!!
Soooo, here were these two 150 (?) guns with their bags heading north and near Ocala they blew a rear tire and waited a day to get it fixed. I ran into them at Baldwin, FL where their engine had failed and it was dead!!! I felt sorry for them so I put their moped in the back of my Honda Ridgeline and took them to a moped shop where they were told it would be $700 for a new engine and they were broke.
One 150 pound guy and his bags may have made it on a moped but not two!
Oh, the moped had only 400 miles on it but the dealer said their warranty was void as it failed because the moped was seriously overloaded.

So, Rogue, who is going to attack? Will any attack justify the use of 7 aircraft carriers, what with US bases within striking distance of almost if not all foes? Tell me, Rogue, how many operational carriers does Russia have? How many operational aircraft carriers does China have? How many operational aircraft carriers does N.Korea have? Answer to all THREE : ZERO. So, what exactly is it you are so worried about?
Obama was right to retire the Enterprise and I'm sure if he had his way, he'd retire all but 2 or 3 of them. Do you know how much these behemoths cost to build, and, even worse, cost to operate and maintain? Don't you think those funds should instead wisely go to health care, social services, education, veterans, public works, unemployment benefits, housing? You neglect those areas too much, Rogue, and pretty soon, those dinosaur aircraft carriers will have nothing to defend.

Oh, I helped a kid hop-up his Yamaha 50cc Zuma moped. There are about twenty states that allow mopeds and they do not have to be registered or insured so long as they at under 50cc's, not over three hp and can not go over 45 mph and you can drive one at age 15 if you have a learner's permit.
Being mechanically inclined I knew that the Yamaha F-50's had a throttle limiter and to get it over three hp to about five hp only required a little work with a file. In most European countries they do not have a restrictor lobe on the throttle cam and all you have to do is file down that lobe and the throttle will open all the way. And it does not cost a dime either.
Oh, Honda mopeds have a restrictor plate like NASCAR uses on their race cars so all you have to do is remove that plate between the carburetor and the manifold and, voulais, you have about five hp too. You might want to replace the gasket but it is a cheap fix.
In either case to get them to go over 45 mph requires more mods and more money! For about a thousand bucks you can make a pretty cheap racing bike. They race mopeds in Europe so their is plenty of racing parts available.

Oh, and Rogue, you've been going on and on about Antarctica adding ice to its surface. I see you never commented on that link I supplied, proving that yes, sea-borne ice is increasing depending on the severity of winter, but that land-borne ice, the true indication of global climate change, IS DECREASING. Still awaiting your comment. As to the Arctic, well, the Northwest Passage will be open to almost year-round navigation in less than 30 years. Ice trucking distances are getting shorter and shorter every year along with lenght of operations, becoming riskier and riskier due to advanced thinning ice.

Now moped have a sort of automatic transmission call a variator. And there are mods that will cost you a $100 which acdn boost you speed from about 45 mph to close to 55 mph.

Yep, there never was any real evidence involving the glaciers in the Himalayan mountains but that has not stopped the United Nations from continuing the lie.
Climate Scientist Admits To Fraudulent Himalayan Glacier Melting Claim
in: Environment
The incredible amount of scientific fraud that continues to be uncovered in the wake of the ClimateGate scandle is really incredible, here is the latest:
The scientist behind the bogus claim in a Nobel Prize-winning UN report that Himalayan glaciers will have melted by 2035 last night admitted it was included purely to put political pressure on world leaders.
Dr Murari Lal also said he was well aware the statement, in the 2007 report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), did not rest on peer-reviewed scientific research.
In an interview with The Mail on Sunday, Dr Lal, the co-ordinating lead author of the reports chapter on Asia, said:It related to several countries in this region and their water sources. We thought that if we can highlight it, it will impact policy-makers and politicians and encourage them to take some concrete action.
It had importance for the region, so we thought we should put it in.[DailyMail]
Make sure to read the rest of the article and the link as well as reading what is posted about this latest scandal over at Watts Up With That? This comes on the heels of both New Zealand and Australian temperature data being proven to be manipulated by climate scientists as well. Is it any wonder now why these people have been working so hard to not release their data for public scrutiny?

text: Compliance Fee Litigation Targets Multiple Retirement Plans at Health System Plaintiffs suggest their employer should have allowed a single recordkeeper to service its traditional DC plan and its 403(b)—and that it paid excessive fees by paying for distinct administrative services for each. By John Manganaro firstname.lastname@example.com | January 03, 2017 Page 1 of 2 A new class action complaint seeks damages on behalf of nearly 20,000 participants, who argue their nearly $1 billion in combined plan assets should have earned them a better deal on investments and administration. The latest example of retirement industry fee litigation was filed just before the New Year in the U.S. District Court for the District of Minnesota: Morin et al vs. Essentia Health. The case contains many of the elements that have become wearingly familiar to PLANADVISER readers; participants claim their employer failed to negotiate fair fees from a variety of service providers during the class period, and that excessive fees paid by participants were effectively used to subsidize the employer's own costs in offering/running the plans. But it also is distinct because of the history of the two retirement plans described in detail in the text of the complaint, including a 403(b) plan that has some important distinctions from a typical 401(k).At a high level, participants argue their employer failed to use the combined bargaining power of its two retirement plans—one a traditional defined contribution plan known simply as the Retirement Plan and the other a distinct 403(b) plan. The Retirement Plan was established and effective on December 22, 1965. It has been restated and amended numerous times since. It was recently restated and amended, effective January 1, 2012, to identify Essentia Health as the sponsor and replace Essentia's subsidiary in that role. The 403(b) plan was first established and effective on January 1, 2009, and Essentia has been identified as the 403(b) plan sponsor since its inception.According to the text of the complaint, the Retirement Plan had 16,848 participants with balances and held approximately $982 million in assets at the end of 2014. The 403(b) Plan had 2,836 participants with balances and held approximately $103 million in assets. The plans combined administratively in 2012, participants claim, "contemporaneously with the restatement and amendment of the Retirement Plan."Plaintiffs argue the size of a defined contribution plan, both by number of participants with balances and total assets, should directly determine the pricing it can obtain for administrative services and investment management. "By combining administratively, the plans have had the ability to operate in the market as a 20,000-participant plan with $1 billion in assets," plaintiffs suggest. The claims for damages look to the period prior to the administrative merger of the plans. According to plaintiffs, prior to January 1, 2012, defendants imprudently kept the plans' records and operations separately. Defendants used BMO Harris as the recordkeeper for the Retirement Plan and Lincoln National Corporation as the recordkeeper for the 403(b) plan. The size of the plans stayed roughly the same through the end of 2011."Though the Plans were operated as two separate entities, this should not have diminished their combined bargaining power, as defendants had control of both plans," plaintiffs suggest. "A prudent fiduciary would have offered service providers the ability to service both plans as a way to attract their business and ultimately demand lower rates."NEXT: Details from the complaint Tagged: Participant Lawsuits, 403b, Defined contribution, Fees, Fiduciary 1 2Next related articles related research most e-mailed Compliance ConsultRecent 403(b) Litigation From planadviser.com SCOTUS Passes On Lehman Brothers Stock Drop ReviewOracle Fails to Get 401(k) Excessive Fee Suit DismissedDodd-Frank Repeal Battle Parallels Fiduciary FightDOL Fiduciary Workshops Support Client Compliance T.

Lovely campground! Very level, deep sites. Mature trees but nothing in the way when you back in. Nice fire pit and picnic table. Very spacious in between sites--at least 20 yards between sites. We were in Site 33E but any site on our loop was great. Also liked Sites 17E, 42E, and 46E. Bathrooms were OK but quite a few bugs--not unlike most state park bathrooms. The rate of $25/night was a good value (electric only) but requires an additional State Park pass ($30 annual or $7 week?). Dumpsters were full when we were there. Firewood was $5/bundle and you pick the pieces. There was an excellent Frisbee golf course on the property and a great bike/running trail right along the Big Sioux River. - Smashcamp
Jun 2016 - $28.00
This is our second visit to this park. Nothing much has changed except the fees have gone up 10%. They charge a $7.70 fee for out of state visitors plus taxes so your advertised $19 electric only campsite will end up costing you $28 plus the $4/person or $6/car entry fee. Despite the somewhat high cost, this is still a nice little park with well spaced sites. A sign on the entry post says you must have a reservation to stay here & I watched a guy struggling to make a reservation on his phone. The entry post wasn't staffed at the time so I don't know if they can get you a reservation on the spot or if you still have to get online to do it yourself. I'd recommend you just arrive with a reservation to eliminate any hassle. All sites are pretty much the same with full shade and approx. 60' long level gravel back-ins. - Danno

Easy off easy on I-90. We are just 2 seniors staying here because of the close proximity to friends off of I-229. I wish there would be a cheaper rate for 2 adults who are not going to use any of the facilities. Very efficient check in. I always love being escorted to our site. - ontheroadmama

We stayed here for a couple days while on our way to Hill City and the Mt Rushmore area. The staff was very nice (young kids) and very accommodating even though we had no reservations. The sites were decent size and grassy, it was very comfortable. Theres a lot of activities for the kids, the play grounds and jump were awesome. They even had a dog run which was big and clean, my dog loved the run everyday. There is more pros than cons, but the only negative are (not major) you are right off the highway so there is highway noise, and the one bath house is immaculate while the other needs updating. I would stay here again and would recommend it to anyone due to the ease off the highway, proximity to Sioux falls, and the really nice staff. - Edouble

Clean, safe, basic KOA. Super noisy since it's right on the highway. But...there's a brewery across the street which should help with getting a good night's rest. They had a pretty good rainstorm come through and that made it a bit muddy around our site. - Hawkdriver
Sep 2016 - $45.00
This is a pretty good KOA. It's expensive for what you get unless you bring a car full of kids to play at the mini-golf or game room or pool (closed after Labor Day). They have a good variety of sites, all gravel. Most sites were fairly level but I noticed a few with quite a bit of slope. Our site was a satellite friendly 60' long pull thru with 20' between rigs. They also have shared pull thrus where one rig occupies 1/2 of a pull thru and another backs in butt-to-butt. Personally, I hate that arrangement with a neighbor literally a foot or two behind your unit. Road noise can be annoying as you are right on the Interstate. During the day, you'll also hear jet aircraft from the nearby airport. The KOA has a nice dog park and grass between units. There's no cable TV but about half the sites look good for satellite. Campground wifi worked fairly well. Verizon had a strong LTE signal. - Danno

Stayed here a few nights to get some business done. Freeway noise but it is close by the freeway. Lots of overnighters as it was easy on and off the freeway. It would fill up and night and clear out the next morning. Would stay here again. Except for freeway quiet park. - The traveler

It's Labor Day weekend....so the price is $40 instead of $20....but still worth it! Full access to the resort's amenities....pool, spa, casino, restaurants etc. Level pull through sites.... Full hookups. Great OTA TV. 15 minutes to a major city. What more could you ask for? - doggpurr

We were so thankful to find this spot. Family emergency in Sioux Falls and during Sturgeous and Fair. Nothing was available. We really lucked out to stay here. Such very nice people. They even let me exercise my dog on the driving range. Beautiful golf course, fabulous buffet, and OK slots. Very convenient for us to Avera Hosp. Small park but surrounded by lovely farms and green golf course. - Newbet
Jul 2016 - $20.00
This is pretty much a parking lot, but with full hookups. Major good point was beautiful view of the golf course - RV sitting right on it. Short walk to casino. But, no amenities. No toilets, showers, washer/dryer or WiFi. But, the price is good for a few nights. And you have casino for gambling, eating, drinking. Buffet was just OK - restaurant was great, but pricey. Also small cafe for sandwiches, which we didn't use. About 15 min to Sioux Falls. About 30 min to Garretson - lovely trails. If you just want to rest up - beautiful big pool, great cushioned lounge chairs, with pool and spa that goes indoors and outdoors. Great view from pool to golf course. Take one of the first few RV spots if you can. That way you don't have to worry about getting a golf ball thru your windshield. - Rosanne

A part of the entrance road (about one block) is a huge rut filled gravel surface so go slow. The campground host escorts you to a site. We arrived to find 75 RVs lined up along the fence line of the campground. They were all pipeline workers but the host parked us far away from them next to the grandstands where we had full hookups and a pull-through. Only three other RVs were in that area and we were not crowded. Easy to find off I-29. Some jet aircraft noise but only once (near airport). - Winnie35
Jul 2016 - $30.00
I do not recommend this campground in 2016. Normally, we enjoy camping here because of its' close proximity to the Sioux Falls biking trails. When we arrived, there were over 50 RVs of the SD Pipeline workers camped here in addition to the 20 or so customary number of campers. As we checked in, the campground hosts were overwrought and bitter about the additional workload. They in no way conveyed the hospitality that the word "host" conveys. The site we were offered was covered with litter left over from the 4th of July. There was a large pile of dog poop that we pointed out, but there was no offer to clean it up. By our 2nd day, the host came around on their golf cart picking up only the trash that could be reached with their stick while they were seated. We won't be back this year, & hopefully by 2017 there will be new hosts who take pride in their work & the oil pipeline workers will have moved on. - Luv-2_rv

I am so glad they had a place for us. It was nice being surrounded by grass. The fairgrounds provided lots of good walking. Our dog enjoyed those walks too. It wasn't noisey and the hosts were very friendly. You are packed in quite close and you park on grass. I would definitely stay there again. - Newbet

Reliability is the main characteristic we ask for. When you make a reservation you expect it to be honored. The least someone could do is notify you immediately if they decide to "not honor" it. We made a reservation prior to coming and prepaid. When we arrived in the afternoon we were told that our site was given away because someone made a mistake. They said to go ahead and unhook as they had another site. We unhooked but then they said that site was also unavailable. They, then offered us a 38 foot side that had 30 amp in their overnight park. We have a 42 foot motor home, we need 50 amp, and we need a place to park our vehicle.
So after a hard day's drive you expect to have a place to park. Tower is unreliable and if you use it, you are taking a big risk. Not only did they fail to honor our reservation but they have not refunded the $198.00 we paid for the week. They said it would be 2-4 weeks before it would be returned.
If you do stay here please be aware that people wander through the lot who do not live there. Be careful going out to walk the dog at night. There does not appear to be any security. Do not expect the park hosts to be responsive or helpful. - Newbet

This was just an overnight after a long day of repair work nearby. We called for reservations and they charged our credit card right away. Price seems high even with Good Sam discount. Park is on the corner of I-29 and 12th Street which is the main road into downtown Sioux Falls. Very busy area and the noise level is constantly high. Our full hookup, pull thru in the west campground was gravel, level, shady and super tight. We were very close to the rig next to us. No fire ring or picnic table. Wifi was spotty. Campground location is convenient to food, shopping, the mall and businesses. If you're a big rig, towing and coming from the interstate, you won't be able to turn directly into the main park entrance due to the median. You will have to go to the next light and make a U-turn. We checked Google Maps and took Exit 80 from I-29 and used side streets to avoid making the U-turn with our 40' motorhome and tow dolly. You can call the office and get directions as well. This was fine for overnight but we won't stay here again. - Flippitti

My site was in the grass about 6 inches away from the wall of the back of one of the motel shacks that they rented. The worst part, besides it being almost impossible to get level, was the water & electric hook up. It was behind the Trailer & on the wrong side but still even worse was that I had to look for it inside a pit that was covered by overgrown grass (3 feet tall) & had to straddle myself over this deep hole which I almost broke my leg falling into as I reached over to plug in. Also got some shirtless looking seedy people drifting out of the adjacent motel doors staring at my unit. I had to keep the shotgun close by just in case. Truly a dump! - Robert9999

To get to the campground I found that using Exit 73 off of I-29 is much closer and faster, and doesn't involve any dirt roads. Take Exit 73, travel west one full block on 271st Street, turn left on to 470th Avenue, continue past the airport to the first stop sign. The entrance is ahead on the left.
If you read between the lines in the directions, you will gather that the CG is close to both a municipal airport and Interstate 29. There are not many planes that use the airport, but on several days they began their take-offs around 7:00AM which was slightly disturbing. Also the Interstate is fairly close, so there is some noise from the highway, but after a day or two we hardly noticed it.
Otherwise this is a very quiet, well run facility. It was quite full when we were there and some of the rigs were close together, but we hardly knew our neighbors were there. We used the laundry, which was clean and not expensive, but not the restrooms or showers so we can't comment on those. There appeared to be many seasonals, but we didn't notice any junk sitting around that can be seen at a lot of campgrounds. During our stay, the Sioux Falls area received FIVE INCHES of rain, which was very unusual, so there was a lot of standing water and mud in the CG, but that can't be blamed on them. All-in-all, if in the area, we would not hesitate to stay here again. - Love To Travel 2

What a beautiful family-owned park! Be sure to use Exit 77 off Hwy 29 as it is paved all the way to the campground. Do not use Exit 71 as the road is gravel all the way to the park. Sites are gravel but level. Interior roads are gravel, but maintained. Nice-sized concrete pad with picnic table. Lots of trees throughout the park. Some sites have fire rings. Pet and kid friendly with a nice play area, pool and lots of grassy areas to walk the dog. Restrooms, showers & laundry are centrally located in the park. The park was full, but reasonably quiet. Not near the highway or a train track as far as we could tell. - MbMurchison

As a State Park it really was well kept & clean. We enjoyed our spacious campsite, camp fire & the amazing view of the night sky. We were well aware of the water issue before we arrived.

Stayed just overnight in route home, which is only reason value was rated low. About 5 miles easy drive off I-90, but worth the trip to use a state park. Park grounds and facilities appeared to be very well maintained. Paved roads, gravel sites and good power. Time of year allowed for not needing reservations, lots of choices for camp sites and easy use of dump station. We would stay here again.

The USDA has announced it's new 'tenderness' program designed to help consumers choose a good piece of beef.
The new USDA program allows beef companies to label products as "USDA tender" or "USDA very tender" if they are certified to make those claims.
Cargill will be rolling this out in the near future since they are certified to be able to do so.
While I've read a few articles about the whole issue, my take on it is a bit different.
Touting how tender a piece of beef might be is keying in on what consumers are duped with continuously.
It's like the words 'extra creamy filling inside' on a box of junk food.
Yep - there probably is extra creamy filling inside.
The question is should you be eating it in the first place?
These type of labels are nothing more than emphasizing the taste or experience of a product while ignoring and totally playing down the real issues.
Does it contain GMO's?
Where was it made or grown?
I use these two examples because they are both being hotly contested in various parts of the country.
Maybe I'm wrong but I haven't heard any ground swell of complaints about how we need our beef products labeled for tenderness.
It's another case of attaching a solution to a problem that nobody but big biz knew was a problem.
Until next time..

Matthew 2:13-23
The Challenge of 'Fulfillment' Matthew identifies three fulfillments in this passage –"in order to fulfill what was spoken by the Lord through the prophet" (2:15) –"then what was spoken by the prophet was fulfilled" (2:17) –"in this way what was spoken through the prophets was fulfilled" (2:23) Yet these are not simple fulfillments of prophecy
The Challenge of 'Fulfillment' Hosea 11:1 is not a prophetic prediction –In Hosea 11:1 the prophet Hosea is referring to a past historical event He is not looking forward; he is looking backward
The Challenge of 'Fulfillment' Jeremiah 31:15 is not a prophetic prediction –Jeremiah is describing contemporary events He is not looking forward; he is looking around
The Challenge of 'Fulfillment' The third fulfillment citation is also problematic –There is no OT text that reads "he will be called a Nazarene"
The Challenge of 'Fulfillment' What is the reader to make of Matthew's claims of fulfillment? –A simplistic treatment of these as examples of fulfilled prophecy creates serious problems It destroys the integrity of the original context and meaning of the text It makes Matthew vulnerable to the charge of misusing the text (proof-texting)
The Challenge of 'Fulfillment' What is the reader to make of Matthew's claims of fulfillment? –A better approach is known as typology Typology involves correspondence –'New' persons, events or institutions correspond to 'old' persons, events or institutions The 'old' informs the 'new' The 'new' fulfills the 'old'
What was Matthew doing? The key to understanding Matthew's use of Hosea 11:1 is found in Numbers 23-24 –In this passage Balak (king of Moab) has commissioned Balaam to curse Israel. –Balaam warns Balak that he can only speak what the LORD gives him to speak, but Balak insists that Balaam curse Israel
In his second oracle Balaam prophesies, "The LORD their God is with them, and the shout of a king is among them. God brings them out of Egypt and is for them like the horns of the wild ox. For there is no enchantment against Jacob, no divination against Israel; now it will be said of Jacob and Israel, 'What God has wrought'! Behold a people! As a lioness it rises up and as a lion it lifts itself; it does not lie down until it has devoured the prey and drunk the blood of the slain". (23:21-24)
In the third oracle Balaam prophesies, "Water shall flow from his buckets, and his seed shall be in many waters; his king shall be higher than Agag, and his kingdom shall be exalted. God brings him out of Egypt and is for him like the horns of the wild ox, he shall eat up the nations, his adversaries… He crouched, he lay down like a lion and like a lioness, who will rouse him up?" (24:7-9)
In his final oracle Balaam declares, "I see him but not now; I behold him, but not near: a star shall come out of Jacob and a scepter shall rise out of Israel; it shall crush the forehead of Moab and break down the sons of Sheth….And one from Jacob shall exercise dominion and destroy the survivors of cities!" (24:17-19)
A Messianic Text and Interpretation In 2 nd Temple Judaism this text was interpreted as messianic (cf.., T. Levi 18.3; CD 7.18-26; various Targumim) The Messiah would take on the identity of the people (as suggested by the change in wording of the oracles) Matthew applies this to Jesus –God called his 'first' son (Israel; Exodus 4:22 ) out of Egypt ( Hosea 11:1 ) –God called his beloved Son ( Matthew 3:17 ) out of Egypt ( Matthew 2:15 )
What was Matthew doing? The key to understanding Matthew's use of Jeremiah 31:15 is the context of Jeremiah
I [God] have loved you with an everlasting love; therefore I have continued my faithfulness to you. Again I will build you and you will be built…. For there shall be a day when watchmen will call in the hill country of Ephraim: "Arise and let us go up to Zion, the LORD our God." For thus says the LORD: "Sing aloud with gladness for Jacob and raise shouts for the chief of the nations; proclaim, give praise, and say, 'O LORD, save your people, the remnant of Israel." Behold I will; bring them from the north country and gather them from the farthest parts of the earth, among them the blind and the lame, the pregnant woman and she who is in labor, together; a great company, they shall return here…..
Hear the word of the LORD, O nations, and declare it to the coastlands far away; say, "He who scattered Israel will gather him, and will keep him as a shepherd keeps his flock. For the LORD has ransomed Jacob and has redeemed him from hands too strong for him…Then shall the young women rejoice in the dance, and the young men and the old shall be merry. I will turn their mourning into joy; I will comfort them and give them gladness for sorrow…
Thus says the LORD: "A voice is heard in Ramah, lamentation and bitter weeping. Rachel is weeping for her children; she refuses to be comforted for her children, because they are no more." Thus says the LORD: "Keep your voice from weeping, and your eyes from tears, for there is a reward for your work," declares the LORD, "and they shall come back to you from the land of the enemy…."
"…Behold the days are coming," declares the LORD, "when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and the house of Judah, not like the covenant I made with their fathers on the day when I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt…." Jeremiah 31:3-32
What was Matthew doing? The statement re Rachel weeping over the lost children is embedded in a context of hope! Matthew is interpreting the life of Jesus within the larger context of the story of Israel and he understands Jesus to be the one through whom God will restore the fortunes of his people. –NB he has already said 'You will call his name Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins (Matthew 1:21)
What was Matthew doing? The events surrounding the death of innocent infants 'fulfills' Jeremiah's statement re Rachel by signaling the end of the exile. –The infants mourned in Jeremiah were lost in the first stage of the exile; those lost in Bethlehem were lost in the final.
What was Matthew doing? By referring to Jeremiah's prophecy in the context Jesus' early life, Matthew creatively demonstrates that Jesus is the 'fulfillment' of Israel's calling and mission. –Jesus is Israel restored.
What was Matthew doing? What about the third fulfillment citation? –Matthew refers to prophets (plural) –It seems he does not intend a reference to any particular text –Rather, he refers to an idea or concept found in the work of various prophets
What was Matthew doing? Commentators have puzzled over this for centuries and there is no certain consensus. A common and plausible solution is to see this as a reference to the low opinion Jews had of Nazareth –See John 1:46 where Nathanael dismissively asks, "Can any good come out of Nazareth?" Thus Jesus' lowly birth ( among the animals ) and his humble background ( as one raised in Nazareth ) fulfill the idea expressed by the prophets that "he" would be unremarkable ( e.g. Isaiah 53:3; Psalm 22:6-8, 13; Daniel 9:26 ).
Two Lessons from Matthew Re historical interpretation, Matthew indicates through his account that he understands God to be the Sovereign Lord of history. –Events do not merely 'happen' they take place for reasons.
Two Lessons from Matthew With regard to textual interpretation, Matthew demonstrates an awareness of intertextuality and the interconnectedness of scripture. –Later texts are to be read and interpreted in light of the earlier. –Scripture is not merely a collection of propositional truths, although there is propositional truth in scripture. –We must learn to read it literarily, not merely literally.

Optical characterization of amorphous dielectric films†
- †
The author is grateful to A. Borghesi for his kind collaboration and useful suggestions and to M. Moscardini for technical assistance.
Dielectric thin films find technological applications in microelectronics and optoelectronics, for example, which makes it important to be able to characterize their electrical and optical properties easily. Two techniques available for the optical characterization—transmittance measurements and spectroscopic ellipsometry—are considered here and examples presented for the characterization of silicon oxide, nitride, and oxynitride films in the IR and UV-vis regions by these methods.

Nothing exciting continued to happen for another seven days, until next the Monday, when Harry was scheduled to take Neville's herbology class to Burwick's and Broshire's Garden. It was a farm of sorts, from what Harry remembered of them, except that it grew only magical plants. It was about ten miles north of the school. Neville couldn't take the class himself because of his green house, which needed constant attention. He insisted that there wasn't anyone suitable to take care of it for him, and landed Harry with an extra class.
He didn't mind, though. It was a first year Ravenclaw and Slytherin split, and first years, even Slytherins, were so taken with lessons and magic and the whole bit that it was a pleasure to teach them.

Certainly, we can share the excitement she feels when she discovers some 150-year-old love letters to a woman called Clestine, and it is easy to be won over by the revelations she makes as she doggedly sifts municipal records and local memories. Some might imagine her work belongs to the embarrassing tradition inspired by Peter Mayle - let's all have a good laugh at French plumbers - but this is not Toujours Chassingolles. It is something more serious and more touching: a devoted record of unsung lives in 19th-century France.
In concentrating on a small patch of land, Tindall covers an awful lot of ground. In 1844, the year of Clestine's birth, French rural life still had a 14th-century flavour: subsistence farming for bread, cheese and vegetables, no news from afar, long nights and hard, hard work. By the year of her death, Clestine had witnessed films, planes and phones, not to mention cars, tractors and new medicines. Unlike some of her interview- ees, Tindall does not sentimentalise the old ways: "steam-powered threshing machines were delivering the earth's bounty more reliably than religious processions."
There are some painful hard-luck stories. When the forge went bankrupt the owners had to spend their whole life savings in gold to repay debts. In old age they finally managed it, and a few weeks later France came off the gold standard, causing a sharp devaluation of the franc - they could have been rich. There are, too, some telling social details. After giving birth, Clestine's mother was given a bowl of hot milk; had it been a boy she would have got mulled wine.
Nevertheless, Tindall's opening claim to total truth is a bizarre one. For one thing, the book is full of out-and-out guesswork. As in much biography, the key phrase "no doubt" alerts us to those moments when we can no longer be sure of our ground. "When Clestine appeared," we read, "she was no doubt placed ceremoniously in the arms of her great-grand-father." Really? Tindall is even confident enough to speculate about her subjects' clothes. "I see Sylvain Germain in my mind's eye clad in the wool and goat-hair breeches that were by then obsolete wear." And when one of Clestine's brothers disappears, Tindall remarks: "His very existence had been forgotten . . . no doubt they had long ceased to mention him." Can we be certain of this? Is it "all true"? It seems at least possible that the conversation turned, every now and then, to the brother who went away to war and never came back.
Fortunately, none of this matters much. The virtues in Tindall's account are almost exactly the opposite of those she claims for it. It reads like a novel, and a novel of a rather traditional sort, relying for its effects on a settled, well-behaved grammar that suggests an all-comprehending author. Ordinary lives are given a modest glint of significance. "One autumn day," it begins, "an old man left his small house in a village near the geographical heart of France and caught the weekly bus into the nearby market town."
Tindall was obviously pleased by the sheer weight of statistics and genealogical information she was able to uncover, and has a bibliophile's fondness for old books of rural records - all those years of ash and dung and thumbprints. But the reader is more likely to be impressed by the slightness of the historical database and to feel that the truths she exposes are even more shaky than they appear. There are just seven letters in the original cache, and we have no way of knowing whether they represent a brief highlight in a life of drudgery, or just the surface trace of wild days and nights in dark, wolf-surrounded countryside.
Still, they are moving stuff. As the daughter of an innkeeper, Clestine attracted a wider audience of potential admirers than was perhaps common; and the letters carry a poignant charge of ancient, long-dead hope. "I am hoping to be your dear one for life," writes a neighbour called Baptiste. "I can hardly write at all," writes another suitor (a schoolmaster), "when I remind myself that when I was with you I could barely speak on account of the state of my heart." A fellow from the next village declares: "I cannot keep silent any longer without making known to you the desire I have to love you"; a young baker contents himself with repeating "Oh Mlle Clestine"; and a commercial traveller goes for a humble plea: "the man who has the luck to marry you could have no other desire but to work and love you." We do not have Cele-stine's replies, but we know she rejected all these unlucky suitors.
In the end, though, it is not so much the letters themselves that are stirring - on the contrary, they are fairly humdrum - as their own history, and the idea of Clestine hoarding them for the rest of her 90-year life.How many times did she take her letters out of their slim case and read them to herself, these luminous trophies of her youth and beauty? Did her hand ever hover over the waste paper bin? No doubt we will never know.

Robert Hurst (1750–1843)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
For other people named Robert Hurst, see Robert Hurst (disambiguation).
Robert Hurst (1750 – 13 April 1843)[1][2] was an English Whig politician. He was Member of Parliament (MP) for boroughs from 1806 to 1829.
At the 1802 general election, Hurst was elected to the House of Commons for two constituencies: Shaftesbury[3] and Steyning.[4] The result of the election in Shaftesbury was disputed, but once the dispute had been settled in his favour he chose to represent Shaftesbury, and did not sit for Steyning in the remainder of the Parliament.[1][4]
At the 1806 general election he was returned again for Steyning,[4] and held that seat until the 1812 general election,[1] when he was elected as MP for Horsham,[5] a seat which he held until 1829,[2] when he resigned his seat by taking the Chiltern Hundreds.[6]
