- border-wall bison janos pronghorn
- Description
The border fence that divides Janos, Chihuahua from Hidalgo County in New Mexico west of the Antelope Wells border crossing, is repeatedly broken by the free ranging bison that moves back and forth. When broken, it allows pronghorn (which canot cross the border fence) to cross into Mexico, but cattle to go to the US, so the owners of the ranch in the Mexican side of the border have been repiring the fence for decades.
If the fence is changed for a wall, the movement of these large ungulates between both countries will stop.

PDF U has been discontinued
PDF U is a utility that will allow you to quickly turn on the "hidden" PDF Services menu that Apple has hidden in the OS 10.2/10.3 print dialog boxes. Normally, you have to go to a special folder on the system, create a folder called "PDF Services" and add your own scripts. Not anymore! PDF U will not only do it quickly, but it will add it for the current user, all system users, and even remove it if you no longer want it. The best part is that we give you with a few scripts to get started.

IGF-1 female usage
IGF-1 female usage
Had a question regarding IGF-1 and what anyone might recommend for a female user (my girlfriend):
I've read over a fair amount of threads regarding IGF-1 in general so here is what I'm proposing for her to do...
4 Total Weeks, 5days on/2days off
IM right after workout, IM first thing in the morning on non-workout days
That stuff probably isn't any huge deal whether male or female, but I was curious as to what dosage to go with.
I was gonna stick with 40-60 mcg's, but wasn't sure if that was way over for a female dosage of 4 weeks. Please
write back with any comments you may have, or better yet if you know any females who've given it a shot. I'm
definitely going to log her progress over the four weeks to know if its a good idea to do more cycles.
I also will stack the IGF-1 with Syntax Guggulbolic Extreme (or SAN T3) and possibly Red Line.
Thanks! - 10-20-2004, 12:06 PM
My wife did 30mcg ed for 4 weeks. She didnt put on huge amounts of muscle but the fat loss was noticeable and she did see some strength gains as well. As for stacking with anything else I dont know, she only used ECA on it. It was well worth it.
As for dosages I dont think you would need to go as high as 40 like I said my wife saw good results staying at 30mcg's. - 10-20-2004, 08:33 PM
thats cool.
does your wife workout mostly cardio or does she lift as well.
my wife wants to lose some fat but if i tell her to use the IGF-1 she'll think she will end up looking like
ronnie coleman. - 10-21-2004, 11:03 AM
She lifts weights as well pretty heavy sometimes too. The fat burning effects were more noticeable than any anabolic effect so I don't think anyone, male or female, would have to worry about looking like coleman on it.
Week one update:
We've stuck with 30mcg and there are definitely noticeable results from it and the rest of the stack (Syntax Guggulbolic Extreme and 5mL of Red Line per day). My girl lifts about 4 times per week and cardio 1-2. We should probably bump up the cardio during the last 3 weeks of this cycle. She's getting some body fat measurements done tonight and I'll post those and then compare them to 3 weeks from now. Oh and just to add, she has last about 7 pounds in the past 2 weeks (most likely some of this is related to the fat burning stack and also to changing to a much lower carb diet). - 10-26-2004, 12:25 PM

My little woodsy scene that my friend Mandy makes fun of. Who cares that it doesn't have the right proportions. I don't!
I usually put up a real tree and an aluminum tree. I didn't have room for both this year, so I used this table top aluminum tree and a real one, which you saw a few posts ago. So far so good, it hasn't fallen over again!
I did find this picture amongst my boxes. It used to be a sweatshirt. We all used to wear matching sweatshirts on our shopping trip that we took the weekend before Thanksgiving. (Gloria? you still looking for those pics or did you forget?) One year my Mom had hers framed and gave one to each of us.

When you don't write a daylog for years there is a LOT to talk about. I watched Robin Williams on David Letterman tonight and I thought about commenting (maybe on facebook) how fucking funny he was. Then I thought about using the word "fuck."
See I'm staying with my parents right now. I thought about writing "living" with them but it's only been since Cinco de Mayo so I can still pretend this is a vacation or something.
The truth is I still don't know if I understand what my girlfriend wants.
Anyway, back to "fuck" and my parents. My father had cautioned me when I was still under his wing (before I dropped out of college and stopped going home for the holidays, etc.) that I should be careful what I say even in private e-mails, because people could use this against you.
I took it to mean I might ruin my chance at being president if I e-mailed a girl and told her how much I'd like to fuck her. Since I had no interest in being an important person I never really heeded his advice.
You could certainly say my vulgarity was used against me and led to me losing my job at IHOP in Fort Collins 10 years ago, however. So maybe my dad is on to SOMETHING.
More than worrying about who actually reads this and actually knows who it is that is writing it, I was thinking of courtesy. Maybe it's the old rule of living by their rules while I live in their house that Christopher Hitchens would advocate (Surely Mr. Hitchens would not approve me me not bowing my head while they say grace before dinner each night).
Anyway, I was re-reading my daylogs and the one previous to this one talks about me eating my own come. So I guess I shouldn't worry about "fuck."
I wrote some spewage on facebook...but I kind of like this E2 format still...and E2 was smart enough to make it easy to link from facebook to here. Which is interesting. Because anyone can read the shit I write here on E2 and they don't know who I am and that's kind of nice...you know, when I'm talking about tasting semen, for instance. But once I link it to facebook that is like inviting people there to come here...to the land I let my brain spill. And that is oh so cool for the cool friends I have on facebook...but what about my sister-in-law, or random Christian girls that knew me in high school?
I crave honesty. I crave openness. It bothers me I have never heard my mother say "fuck" firsthand, but I heard several accounts of her potty mouth from girls who worked in the same retail store as she did.
See, now I've invited people to think my mother is a hypocrite! You (or at the very least *I* when I read this years from now) can see my dilemma.
I mentioned I came here on Cinco de Mayo. The two weeks before that I worked as a Busman, which is just like a Busboy, only much, much more depressing, at a fancy Mexican restaurant in a casino in Vegas.
The month before that, April Fools came and went uneventfully.
There is so much more I want to say, but I fear for my parents, for my girlfriend, and for those beautiful Christian girls who can make me come, even though it doesn't make them Jesus.
I'd pipe link that line, but it feels like cheating, bonus points for you if you get the lyrical reference. If you don't, you might want to ask your wife.
This note concerns the long running saga of the expenses claimed by British Members of Parliament, the detail of which we, the British public, were not supposed to know anything about, until that is the High Court ruled that the Freedom of Information Act did indeed apply to Parliament, and that its members should have realised this when they passed the legislation in the first place. The net result was that Parliament reluctantly decided to release details of the expenditure claims made by its members, with the publication date originally set sometime for July 2009. However as the House of Commons authorities duly set about the task of compiling the necessary information, it became clear that there was a mole somewhere in the system, as one or two choice details regarding the expenses claimed by the odd member or two leaked into the public domain.
It has been alleged that a disc containing this entire database of MPs expense claims for the past four years came into the possession of a person whose identity is currently unknown, and that said disc was being hawked around the media by a 'businessman' acting on behalf of this individual, and that the Daily Telegraph purchased this disc for the sum of £150,000. The excrement therefore truly hit the ceiling fan on the 8th May 2009, when the Telegraph began getting its money's worth finally began informing the British public as to what its elected representatives had been up to in the recent past.
Now at some point in time, this author may well feel obliged to document the ins and outs of this particular British political scandal, but for the moment let is consider one particular vignette from this long running episode. On the 9th May 2009 the Daily Telegraph gave particular prominence to the expense claims submitted by four Government ministers, amongst who was Phil Woolas the Labour member for Oldham East and Saddleworth, and Minister of State at the Home Office with the responsibility for borders and immigration. Specifically the Telegraph reported that Mr Woolas had "claimed for items of women's clothing, tampons and nappies", and noted that since parliamentary rules only allowed expenses to be claimed for items which were exclusively for MPs' own use, it was "not clear these items were justified".
As it turned out Woolas was rather upset by this story. As far as he was concerned it was "untrue" that he had "claimed these things" and to suggest that he had was "disgusting". It was also said that he was contemplating legal action against the paper, believing perhaps that there was a suggestion of transvestism (or worse) lurking behind the suggestion that the "women's clothing, tampons and nappies" that he had purchased were somehow for his "own use".
Naturally the Sunday Telegraph of the 10th May came to the defence of its sister paper's story, and duly provided the supporting evidence. Being that back in August 2004 Woolas had submitted an expenses claim for 'food' amounting to £210.31, and that said claim was supported by a number of receipts, including one of £69.30 from Tesco, another for £16.69 from Marks and Spencer, £27.33 from Sainsbury's, and two from Somerfield for a total of £96.99. As the Telegraph noted, "He was reimbursed in full from the public purse" for the total amount of £210.31. However as the newspaper then pointed out, the receipt from Tesco, dated the 12th August 2004, "included a pair of women's shoes for £23, two packets of disposable bibs priced £2.98 each, a bottle of nail polish at £5.75, three comics for £5.14, two packs of babies wipes at £1.44 each and a ladies' jumper at £5", and that the total cost of these "impermissible items" was £47.73.
Faced with this clear evidence Woolas replied by admitting that "I take your point and I understand the extrapolation." However he continued to insist that "The original accusation is untrue" and explained that, "The claim is one document and the receipts are another. The fact that they both add up to the same amount doesn't prove anything. It doesn't mean that the fees office paid for the non-food items on the receipt." And in case anyone missed it, let us read that again; "The fact that they both add up to the same amount doesn't prove anything". At least that point is therefore clear; the fact that the receipts totalled £210.31, and that his expense claim was for £210.31, was entirely coincidental, and no inference should be drawn from the fact that these two numbers were identical.
Strangely enough, lurking behind Woolas's warped logic was something that was almost a point. Since, as the rules stood at the time, he didn't "need to submit receipts to back the claims" and he could have claimed up to £400 a month for food without submitting any receipts, and hence he was "being hung out to dry for being honest".
However the one point that had eluded Mr Woolas was this; the fact that receipts were not required as a matter of course simply meant that members were being trusted not to claim for things they shouldn't, and that by submitting his receipts Woolas had simply demonstrated (in his case at least) that he could not be trusted to exercise the necessary self-discipline to do so. No doubt, many of his peers, simply banged in their expense claims for similar expenditure at the nation's supermarkets without bothering with any supporting documentation, leaving everyone none the wiser as to whether or not they had actually restricted their purchases to the permissible 'food', or whether they had succumbed to the temptation to chuck in the odd comic or item of clothing into their trolley as they strolled down the aisles.
That however was no excuse for Woolas who was therefore left in a position akin to that of a burglar, who had conveniently left his fingerprints at the scene of the crime, and was now complaining of the injustice of his conviction on the basis that others had got off scot free by the simple expedient of remembering to wear gloves. Life is sometimes a little unfair that way, but it nevertheless serves as an illustration of the mentality of many of those who profess to represent the British people, in that they viewed the matter of expenses, not as one of seeking reimbursement for expenditure incurred in the performance of the Parliamentary duties, but rather as some kind of fund that they could dip into as and when they saw fit.

PR Adds Powerful New Tool to Circumvent Traditional Media

Your points are well-taken, and as usual, quite humorous, Amanda. Great stuff, indeed.
The major questions which keep nagging me are these: do agency clients truly need, or actually care, about these applications? Or is this yet another "value-added service" which firms such as Edelman and SHIFT can add to their portfolio for appearance's sake, and simply look good on paper ("Hey, Mr. Client, look what we can do in the social media realm!)? I recently had conversations with two very experienced and high-ranking PR pros: one with a major international firm which shall remain nameless; the other is the head of corporate communications for a well-known Fortune 100 brand. The agency pro had little knowledge of social media or of the existence of Second Life, which I found shocking. The Fortune 100 corporate communications head recently decided to develop a corporate blog -- not because it made strategic sense or was addressing some specific commuinications need of the company. Rather, she was being pressured by her superiors to enter the new media world, and do so in a big way so the company could simply say it had a blog -- and thus, appear to be on the cutting edge. The correlation between the two? A lack of experience in this arena, and glaring uncertainty regarding the benefits, if any, such tactics will deliver. While I am sure these applications are relevant to some cases, they are, obviously, not a cure-all for companies now evaluating new/social media strategies. The PR industry, in my opinion, should be honest about what new/social media can accomplish, and whether clients can genuinely benefit.
This is just wierd, frankly, coming from Edelman.
Little off topic, but: what on earth does "world's largest indepenent PR agency" mean? In other words, how are the larger ones not independant, and the independant ones not larger?
How utterly disheartening. And terrifying. Is there any truth left in product marketing? How about creativity? I guess it was only a matter of time until the almighty dollar killed both in the name of marketing systems and profit projections.
Are PR firms and their clients now nothing more than whores and pimps? Guided by nothing more than profit? Who's who? And since it is decidedly okay to lie and manipulate consumers in order to make them feel all warm and fuzzy so that they may be enticed to purchase a service, does the industry now refer to the consumers as "johns"? I'm no saint by any means, not even remotely, but such ideas make me not want to ever have children and fear for my nephews' and my niece's future. Keep shoveling the shit Amanda, maybe you can keep it from going over your head. And, maybe, a few other's heads as well.
Was watching the movie The Player last night. There's a classic moment where the upstart movie exec suggest making movies without needing to have writers - just a template with studio execs filing-in the dialogue. The Tim Robbins character then observes (with irony) "and then we get rid of producers and actors and you might be onto something". And then I though about the Social Media Release ...
Is there an award for best blog post of the year? With this "StoryMakerUpper 1.0," my vote is now cast.

Montgomery County, TN – Aladdin Lighting Technologies, an American-owned and operated company that has thrived in lighting for more than 100 years, is the latest business to earn Clarksville-Montgomery County Green Certification.
Aladdin Lighting Technologies Green Ribbon Cutting Ceremony
Aladdin Lighting Technologies, located in the Clarksville-Montgomery County Industrial Park, has worked to reduce their impact on the environment while saving resources. The first step Aladdin took towards their Green Certification was to implement a recycling program.
President and CEO Len Stolz said, "We started with recycling because it was the obvious change to make."
A few more of their conservation efforts include retrofitting to more efficient lighting as old bulbs went out; setting thermostats back in the evenings and weekends, eliminating the use of Styrofoam and paper towels, encouraging employees to turn out the lights in unused rooms and keeping lights out in unused areas of their warehouse.
During the ribbon cutting Stolz proudly showed display cases filled with antique Aladdin lamps, lunchboxes and thermoses from their museum which they have plans to build on site for the public to enjoy.
Montgomery County Mayor Carolyn Bowers congratulated Stolz and his staff for their support to reduce their impact on the environment at work and at home.
"Thank you for what you are doing to make a difference in the community," said Bowers. Stolz explained, "At one time being "green" meant doing something kind for the environment but in these times it has more to do with saving resources, including money."

iPad mini to launch in Brazil June 25th
The iPad mini will ship to Brazil on June 25th, local retailers FNAC and Saraiva have announced. No other details have been revealed, such as prices or cellular carriers. The launch will take place nearly eight months after the tablet first went on sale in countries like the US.

Brazilian iPad minis could conceivably be assembled domestically at Foxconn's local factory. Some Apple products are already manufactured there, but the company tends not to publicize where its products are built, even in cases where it helps local economies.

Chancellor George Osborne unveiled the first overhaul of the Bank of England's remit in nearly a decade under plans for "monetary activism" in the face of sharp growth downgrades and higher borrowing.
While confirming the inflation target would remain at 2%, Mr Osborne gave the central bank room to loosen monetary policy by also focusing on economic growth with the freedom to explore "unconventional" measures.
But the changes came as a disappointment to some economists, who had been hoping for more radical action.
The remit review also came against a grim backdrop of lower growth and higher-than-expected borrowing revealed in the Budget as the independent tax and spending watchdog the Office for Budget Responsibility delivered another painful set of forecasts.
The OBR said the UK would narrowly avoid a triple dip recession by eking out growth of 0.1% this quarter, but it halved its growth predictions for the year as a whole to 0.6%, while it said the Government would have to borrow nearly £60 billion more than expected by 2017/18.
In the year to March, the OBR now expects the government to borrow £114 billion, £108 billion in the 2013/14 year, £97 billion in the following year, falling to £87 billion, £61 billion and £42 billion in the following years to 2017/18.
It ruled once more that Mr Osborne will breach his rule that the ratio of net debt to gross domestic product (GDP) will be falling by 2015/16.
Debt as a ratio of GDP will now not fall until 2017/18 - two years later than planned.
Labour leader Ed Miliband said the "bad news just doesn't stop", but Mr Osborne said the Government would stand by its austerity plan.
He said: "It is taking longer than anyone hoped, but we must hold to the right track.
"Our economic plan combines monetary activism with fiscal responsibility and supply-side reform. And today we go further on all three components of that plan."
The Bank's new remit explicitly allows the Bank to be flexible in its targeting and Mr Osborne has asked the Bank's Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) to report back on the use of so-called "intermediate thresholds", such as economic stability measures, in its August inflation report.
Policymakers will also be able to provide forward-looking guidance on rates and inflation.
Mr Osborne said Bank governor Sir Mervyn King and his successor Mark Carney, who takes over in July, had agreed to the new remit and for the MPC to use "unconventional monetary instruments".
In a brief letter to Mr Osborne, Sir Mervyn said the changes were "sensible" and contain "useful improvements to the framework".
But economist Vicky Redwood at Capital Economics said the changes were "not as bold" as many had expected.
She said: "With the fiscal measures unlikely to do much for the economy, responsibility for boosting the recovery remains with the Bank of England.
"At least Mr Osborne did a bit to help in this respect, altering the Bank's remit so that it can use unconventional tools and employ forward-looking guidance to influence interest rate expectations."
However, she added the remit change was unlikely to deliver the boost needed to kick-start the recovery, forecasting growth of just 0.2% this year.

Jonathan Lethem
The Ecstasy of Influence:
Nonfictions, Etc.
$5 tickets
November 9, 2011 6:00 PM |
LocationBrattle Theatre
40 Brattle St., Cambridge, MA 02138 |
$5.00 - On Sale
Harvard Book Store is excited to welcome novelist and essayist JONATHAN LETHEM for a discussion of his new collection of essays, The Ecstasy of Influence: Nonfictions, Etc.
What's a novelist supposed to do with contemporary culture? And what's contemporary culture supposed to do with novelists? In The Ecstasy of Influence, Jonathan Lethem, tangling with what he calls the "white elephant" role of the writer as public intellectual, arrives at an astonishing range of answers.
A constellation of previously published pieces and new essays as provocative and idiosyncratic as any he's written, this volume sheds light on an array of topics from sex in cinema to drugs, graffiti, Bob Dylan, cyberculture, 9/11, book touring, and Marlon Brando, as well as on a shelf's worth of his literary models and contemporaries: Norman Mailer, Paula Fox, Bret Easton Ellis, James Wood, and others. And, writing about Brooklyn, his father, and his sojourn through two decades of writing, Lethem sheds an equally strong light on himself.
Online ticket sales have now ended, but tickets can still be purchased at Harvard Book Store and by phone at 617-661-1515.
Walking from the Harvard Square T station: 10 minutes
As you exit the station, cross Mass. Ave. and look for the newsstand Crimson Corner on the right side of the street and Curious George book shop on the left side of the street. Keeping the newsstand to your right, proceed along Brattle St. (you will pass the restaurant Tory Row). Follow Brattle St. as it curves to the right in Brattle Square (follow the sidewalk on the right side of the street). The Brattle will be on the left-hand side of the street. The building is shared with Algiers Cafe and Alden & Harlow Restaurant, and the theatre entrance is on the left side of the building—look for the sidewalk poster case and marquee.

The term 'salvation' occurs three times in Revelation and is specifically related to the 'great crowd'. (Revelation 7:9,10; 12:10; 19:1)
The first instance introduces the great crowd, "After these things I looked, and behold, a great crowd, which no man could count, out of every nation and of all tribes, peoples, and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, dressed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands. They cried with a loud voice, saying, "Salvation be to our God, who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!" — Revelation 7:9,10
The next instance tells us when and why salvation occurs, "Now the salvation, the power, and the Kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ has come; for the accuser of our brothers has been thrown down, who accuses them before our God day and night. They overcame him because of the Lamb's blood, and because of the word of their testimony. They didn't love their life, even to death." (Revelation 12:10,11)
The third instance concludes, "After these things I heard something like a loud voice of a great crowd in heaven, saying, "Hallelujah! Salvation, power, and glory belong to our God… I heard something like the voice of a great crowd, and like the voice of many waters, and like the voice of mighty thunders, saying, "Hallelujah! For the Lord our God, the Almighty, reigns!" (Revelation 19:1,6)
"The revelation from Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show his servants what must soon take place. He made it known by sending his angel to his servant John, who testifies to everything he saw—that is, the word of God and the testimony of Jesus Christ. Blessed is the one who reads aloud the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear it and take to heart what is written in it, because the time is near." (Revelation 1:1-3)
"I testify to everyone who hears the words of prophecy in this book: If anyone adds to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book. And if anyone takes away from the words of this book of prophecy, God will take away his share in the tree of life and in the holy city, which are described in this book." (Revelation 22:18,19)
The Watchtower's 'Reasoning from the Scriptures' teaches,
"The "great crowd in heaven" referred to at Revelation 19:1,6 is not the same as the "great crowd" of Revelation 7:9. The ones in heaven are not described as being "out of all nations" or as ascribing their salvation to the Lamb; they are angels."
The great crowd cries out in both places that salvation belongs to our God, as demonstrated above. The Watchtower doesn't have confusion over the 144,000 of Revelation 7 being the same as Revelation 14 even though it doesn't include "out of the twelve tribes of Israel" in both places. It is human reasoning to require Revelation to include the entire description of the great crowd in both chapters where they appear.
Despite John's warning (Revelation 22:18,19), the Watchtower removes 'the great crowd' from heaven, and 'adds' that they are angels, instead of believing his word, the 'Faithful and True' 'Word of God' (Revelation 19:11,13), as the truth.
So what is the truth? Jesus said, "I am … the truth." (John 14:6) and, "If you continue in My word, you are truly My disciples. Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free." (John 8:31,32)
Whose word do you believe is the truth? The Watchtower, or the Revelation of Christ as the Faithful and True Word of God?
It is only if you continue in his word, that you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.
Revelation 14 tells us, "I saw, and behold, the Lamb standing on Mount Zion, and with him a number, one hundred forty-four thousand, having his name, and the name of his Father, written on their foreheads. I heard a sound from heaven, like the sound of many waters, and like the sound of a great thunder. The sound which I heard was like that of harpists playing on their harps."
In Revelation 14, the 144,000 are gathered together standing with the Lamb on Mt. Zion, on earth, but where are the great crowd?
The description of the 'sound from heaven' (Revelation 14:2) accompanying the song of the 144,000 is the same as that of 'the great crowd in heaven' (Revelation 19:1), "something like the voice of a great crowd, and like the voice of many waters, and like the voice of mighty thunders". (Revelation 19:6) The description of this sound from heaven (Revelation 14:2,19:6), the same as the crying out of 'salvation' (Revelation 7:10,19:1), is only applied to the 'great crowd' of Revelation (Revelation 7:9,19:1,6).
If you still believe the Watchtower over the Faithful and True Word of God, let's continue reasoning from the scriptures…
Jesus is the salvation that belongs to our God, literally. (Psalm 3:8;62:1) The Hebrew word for salvation is yeshuah. The Messiah's Hebrew name, Yeshua, is derived from his father's Hebrew name, Yehowah, and means "Yehowah is Salvation".
Salvation is revealed in Revelation.
Revelation 12 describes a sign and a seven year period of two parts, 1,260 days (Revelation 12:6) and 3.5 years (Revelation 12:14).
At the midpoint (Revelation 12:7) of the seven years, we are told "Now have come to pass the salvation…" (Revelation 12:9,10 NWT)
What was this salvation? "You yourselves have seen … that I might carry you on wings of eagles and bring you to myself." (Exodus 19:4)
"Now when the dragon saw that it was hurled down to the earth, it persecuted the woman that gave birth to the male child. But the two wings of the great eagle were given the woman, that she might fly into the wilderness to her place; there is where she is fed for a time and times and half a time away from the face of the serpent." … "The dragon was enraged at the woman, and went to make war with the rest of her children, who keep the commandments of God and hold to the testimony of Jesus." (Revelation 12:17)
We see she flies away, but who are the rest of her children with whom he makes war?
In Revelation, the 144,000 are the ones referred to as "the saints" or "holy ones". (Revelation 8:3,13:7,10,14:12,16:6,17:6,19:8,20:9) "And there was given to it to make war with the saints, and to overcome them." (Revelation 13:7)
Daniel teaches us this takes place in a period of three and a half years, "'He will speak out against the Most High and wear down the saints of the Highest One, and he will intend to make alterations in times and in law; and they will be given into his hand for a time, times, and half a time.'" (Daniel 7:25) "I heard him swear by him who lives forever, saying, "It will be for a time, times and half a time. When the power of the holy people has been finally broken, all these things will be completed."" (Daniel 12:7)
Matthew 24:29-31 confirms the outline of events as described in Revelation:
"And immediately after the tribulation of those days:
'The sun will be darkened,
and the moon will not give its light,
and the stars will fall from the sky,
and the powers of the heavens will be shaken.'"
The great tribulation are the events of Revelation 6 leading up to the sixth seal.
Revelation 6:12-14 describes the opening of the sixth seal with the same description from Matthew,
"I saw when he opened the sixth seal, and there was a great earthquake. The sun became black as sackcloth made of hair, and the whole moon became as blood. The stars of the sky fell to the earth, like a fig tree dropping its unripe figs when it is shaken by a great wind. The sky was removed like a scroll when it is rolled up. Every mountain and island were moved out of their places. The kings of the earth, the princes, the commanding officers, the rich, the strong, and every slave and free person, hid themselves in the caves and in the rocks of the mountains. They told the mountains and the rocks, "Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him who sits on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb, for the great day of his wrath has come; and who is able to stand?"
After this the 144,000 are sealed (Revelation 7:1-8), and we see the Great Crowd saved out of the great tribulation (Matthew 24:22, Revelation 7:9-17). How?
Matthew continues, "At that time the sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven, and all the tribes of the earth will mourn. They will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven, with power and great glory. And He will send out His angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather His elect from the four winds, from one end of the heavens to the other." (Matthew 24:30,31)
Revelation 12 reveals this 'sign of the Son of Man':
"A great sign was seen in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars. She was with child. She cried out in pain, laboring to give birth… She gave birth to a son, a male child, who is to rule all the nations with a rod of iron. Her child was caught up to God, and to his throne. The woman fled into the wilderness, where God had prepared a place for her to be nourished for one thousand two hundred sixty days." (Revelation 12:1-6)
After the unsealing of the sixth seal when the 144,000 are sealed, and the great crowd is saved, is the seventh seal and then the seven trumpets (Revelation 8-11).
When the Lamb appears on Mt. Zion with the 144,000, the great crowd are in heaven (Revelation 14:2;19:1,6):
"For this we declare to you in the word of the Lord, that we the living, remaining unto the coming of the Lord, shall not precede those having fallen asleep, because the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a loud command, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we, the living remaining, will be caught away together with them in the clouds for the meeting of the Lord in the air; and so we will be always with the Lord." (1 Thessalonians 4:15-17)
The Greek word 'elect' (eklektos) is 'select, choose, or chosen, out of' referring to the 'congregation' (ekklésia) who are 'called out from and to' God, the entire congregation. It is out of this group that the 144,000 are sealed. (Matthew 24:31, Mark 13:27) The great crowd are the rest of the congregation, who receive salvation, while the 144,000 sealed are "the slaves of our God" (Revelation 7:3), and they are 'dead in Christ [that] will rise first' (1 Thessalonians 4:16).
Who is this woman?
Revelation later unveils "the bride, the wife of the Lamb" (Revelation 21:9), "I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband." (Revelation 21:2) This is "the city of my God, the new Jerusalem, which is coming down out of heaven from my God" (Revelation 3:12), "the city with foundations, whose architect and builder is God". (Hebrews 11:10)
"Jerusalem above is free, and she is our mother. For it is written: "Rejoice, O barren woman, who bears no children; break forth and cry aloud, you who have never travailed; because more are the children of the desolate woman, than of her who has a husband." (Galatians 4:26,27, Jeremiah 3:14)
The 144,000 are the bride (Revelation 21:9), while the Great Crowd are the rest of the congregation, the body of Christ (1 Corinthians 12:27).
"You have come to Mount Zion, and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to innumerable multitudes of angels, to the feast gathering (panéguris), and assembly of the firstborn who are enrolled in heaven… See that you don't refuse him who speaks. For if they didn't escape when they refused him who warned on the earth, how much more will we not escape who turn away from him who warns from heaven, whose voice shook the earth then, but now he has promised, saying, "Yet once more I will shake not only the earth, but also the heavens." (Revelation 12:7-9) This phrase, "Yet once more" signifies the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that have been made, that those things which are not shaken may remain." (Hebrew 12:22-27)
'But also the heavens' refers to the war in heaven in the middle of the seven years which caused the third woe, Satan and his angels to be thrown down to earth. (Matthew 24:29) Mt. Zion foreshadows the appearance of the Lamb and his bride, and the feast gathering is their marriage feast in heaven…
Thus we return to, "And I heard something like the voice of a great multitude, and like the sound of many waters, and like a sound of mighty thunders, saying:
"Hallelujah! For the Lord God our Almighty has reigned.
We should rejoice and should exult
and will give to Him the glory,
because the marriage of the Lamb has come,
and His bride has made herself ready.
And it was given to her that she should be clothed in bright, pure, fine linen."
For the fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints.
And he says to me, "Write, 'Blessed are those having been invited to the supper of the marriage of the Lamb.'" And he says to me, "These are the true words of God."" (Revelation 19:6-9)
Happy are those invited, but what will they wear?
"Blessed are those washing their robes, that their right will be to the tree of life, and they shall enter into the city by the gates." (Revelation 22:14)
The great crowd are the only ones mentioned having "washed their robes", and they alone gain access to "the tree of life, which is in the paradise of God." (Revelation 2:7)
Paul tells us, "I know a man in Christ who … was caught up into Paradise." (2 Corinthians 12:3,4) "The Spirit of the Lord carried Philip away, and the eunuch did not see him any longer." (Acts 8:39) The word to express 'caught up into Paradise' or 'carried away' is the same as used of woman's child being 'caught away' to God's throne. (Revelation 12:5) Commonly translated 'rapture', the Greek word is harpazó, meaning to 'seize, catch up, snatch away, or obtain by robbery'.
We may recall then Christ's words, "Behold, I come like a thief. Blessed is he who watches, and keeps his clothes, so that he doesn't walk naked, and they see his shame." (Revelation 16:15)
Revelation warns, "If you do not wake up, I will come like a thief, and you will not know the hour when I will come upon you." (Revelation 3:3)
However, "You are fully aware that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night." (1 Thessalonians 5:2) "God has not appointed us to suffer wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ." (1 Thessalonians 5:9)
"The Lord is not slow to fulfill His promise as some understand slowness, but is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance. But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar, the elements will be dissolved in the fire, and the earth and its works will not be found." (2 Peter 3:9,10, Revelation 20:11)
After the 144,000 appear on Mt. Zion with the Lamb (Revelation 14:1), then there is the marriage feast in heaven (Revelation 19:1,9), before they return to earth (Revelation 20:9) to reign for a thousand years (Revelation 20:4).
After this is the resurrection (Revelation 20:5,11-15), and "I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth have passed away, and the sea is no more. (Revelation 20:11, 2 Peter 3:9,10) I saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared like a bride adorned for her husband."
Hebrews tells us further of the faithful who died before Christ, "These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them from afar, and having embraced them, and having confessed that they are strangers and sojourners on the earth. For those saying such things make manifest that they are seeking their own country. And indeed if they had been remembering that from where they came out, they would have had opportunity to return. But now they stretch forward to a better one, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed of them, to be called their God; for He has prepared a city for them."
"How awesome is this place! This is none other than the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven." (Genesis 28:17)
Those who "washed their robes in the blood of the Lamb" (Revelation 7:14) are the 'Great Crowd' (Revelation 7:9) who receive 'salvation' (Revelation 19:1,6) and have access to the "tree of life" (Revelation 22:14) in the "paradise of God" (Revelation 2:7), being "caught up into Paradise" (2 Corinthians 12:3,4, Matthew 24:30,31, 1 Thessalonians 4:15-17), they "may enter the city by the gates" (Revelation 22:14) of "Jerusalem above" (Galatians 4:26) before she descends to earth after the thousand year reign (Revelation 21:1,2,10, Hebrews 11:16, Hebrews 12:22).
The Watchtower teaches that the 144,000 are the new covenant. The 144,000 are only of the twelve tribes of Israel, and yet the entire congregation were taught to follow his commandments, including to 'keep doing this in remembrance of him'. (Matthew 28:18-20, 1 Corinthians 11:23-26)
It wasn't until the end of the first century that Christ inspired the Revelation introducing the 144,000 out of the twelve tribes of Israel, and the great crowd.
People of all nations, tribes, and tongues, were already new covenant partakers, thus the congregation would have understood the 144,000 to be sealed as ones who would have been a part of the new covenant, albeit to be sealed at some future time, and specifically to be out of the twelve tribes of Israel.
"Truly, truly, I tell you, he who believes has eternal life. I am the bread of life… This is the bread that comes down from heaven so that anyone may eat of it and not die. I am the living bread that came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever. And this bread, which I will give for the life of the world, is My flesh."
At this, the Jews began to argue among themselves, "How can this man give us His flesh to eat?"
So Jesus said to them, "Truly, truly, I tell you, unless you eat the flesh and drink the blood of the Son of Man, you have no life in you. Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. For My flesh is real food, and My blood is real drink." "Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood remains in Me, and I in him. Just as the living Father sent Me and I live because of the Father, so also the one who feeds on Me will live because of Me." (John 6:47-57)
The great crowd who wash their robes in the blood of the Lamb have eternal life by eating his flesh and drinking his blood. Those who die he will raise on the last day, and those who live until his return will live 'forever' (to the end of the age) with access to 'the tree of life' which is in God's paradise (Revelation 2:7, 22:14) in heaven during the millennial reign.
Afterwards it is as explained by Paul, "Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed—in an instant, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed. For the perishable must be clothed with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality. When the perishable has been clothed with the imperishable and the mortal with immortality, then the saying that is written will come to pass: "Death has been swallowed up in victory."" (1 Corinthians 15:51-54)
This is the resurrection at the end of the thousand years. (Revelation 20:5,11-15)
Do we have to ask "How can this man give us His flesh to eat?" The Jews didn't understand because "their minds were closed. For to this day, the same veil remains at the reading of the old covenant. It has not been lifted, because only in Christ can it be removed." (2 Corinthians 3:14)
Will you become a part of the new covenant before it's too late? "Israel has experienced a hardening in part until the full number of the Gentiles has come in." (Romans 11:25)
"He took the bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, "This is My body, given for you; do this in remembrance of Me."
Did Christ give his body for you?
In the same way, after supper He took the cup, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in My blood, which is poured out for you." (Luke 22:19,20)
Did he pour out his blood for you?
After Christ died, he became 'the Lamb' signifying his sacrifice for all mankind.
After he was resurrected he appeared to offer his last words on earth, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey all that I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."
It is the great crowd of Revelation, out of all nations, who are the new covenant, along with the 144,000.
We are reminded, "Blessed are those who wash their robes, that they may have the right to the tree of life, and may enter in by the gates into the city." (Revelation 22:14)
They wash their robes by obeying all that he commanded, not least of which was to 'keep doing this in remembrance' of him. (1 Corinthians 11:23-26)
What other commandments of Christ do you selectively choose not to obey, or believe don't apply to you?

She scattered the clues about them, connected dots leaving one baffled and the other more intrigued. "Do others often have a hard time …" —DING!— check that diagnostic question off the list. She persisted in laying scattered pieces of imagery in their minds, forming it visually into a ball before their eyes, before dropping it again for adding another piece.
Somewhere out there Fernlund still longed to be connected, calls, voicemails, and finally even Facebook messages provoking her gone unheeded, he knew he was in the cold with nothing to offer. She had ever been truthful, and faithful, and he thought her all the more … for it.
Batman, the nickname which would spark the right ID for that guy for those in the know, was training her. A male mentor qualified, once an officer and a gentleman, now he trains Navy Seals. Right in time too, because her best brunch buddy, an awesome psychologist, had tapped in his lawyer friend, calling in the troops as it were in her defense based on their last catch-up. His perspective was to build up a defense, and that it seemed she was the target of … after all.
She had met with her contact at the >>> and all had gone well, thumbs up and moving forward. He'd done as she'd asked out of necessity as she'd guessed, not out of having followed the emailed instructions. Oh well, not much harm there… that's why there had been the in-person meeting. In the end, she still owed him much, and hoped that while he'd been after her for it for months, that she was trying to be quite careful in her calculations of timing and ….
Soon the San Diego Reader would have a cover story exposing at least some portion of the overall story in which she found herself embroiled. Still, she couldn't imagine the rest of it connecting as Giles lawyer friend did. She kept it in mind as Jack Reacher and Patricia Cornwell's names wandered into her consciousness.

I'm to finish a neurolinguistically coded script which ultimately will be published as … specifically targeting have greatest reach to it's one specific audience. I find I'm emotionally involved on this task, I know how mission critical it is… Time is also short, as I think I found a 'culture fit' and am happy to have a distraction from the more-than-I-needed-to-know-about-the-world work.

LIVE COVERAGE Internet: Additional coverage on Twitter @GamecockBasebll and Facebook/Gamecocksonline Follow @GamecockBasebll on Twitter Live Video Live Stats
A LOOK BACK South Carolina did not allow a run in the entire Brown series with three shutouts to extend the team's total to eight on the year. South Carolina outscored Brown 24-0 with victories of 13-0, 8-0 and 1-0.
SCOUTING FURMAN Furman returns six position starters from last year's team. Their top hitter currently, Greg Harrison, spent one season with the Gamecock program for the 2010 season. He did not see any action. Harrison leads Furman with a .350 average (21-for-60) with nine runs scored, seven doubles, a homer and 10 RBI. Another Gamecock tie to the Paladins is volunteer assistant Landon Powell. Powell lettered from South Carolina 2001-04 and was a member of three CWS squads and a All-American before being a MLB first round selection by the Oakland A's. Powell spent three seasons in the big leagues with the A's (2009-11) and caught a perfect game in 2010 by A's pitcher Dallas Braden.
LAST TIME VS. FURMAN Down 4-1 entering the top of the sixth, South Carolina mounted a rally with a single run in that frame and three more runs in the seventh to go ahead 5-4. Dante Rosenberg had a two-out single in the sixth to cut the deficit to two runs. In the seventh inning, the momentum continued. George Iskenderian led off with a base hit to center. A walk to LB Dantzler and a single off the top of the green monster in left by pinch hitter Connor Bright loaded the bases. Max Schrock would drive in Iskenderian with a single to left field. Schrock knocked a 2-1 pitch right through the left side for a run. Brison Celek then came up with a big bat as he drilled a 3-1 pitch just off the top of the wall in left-center to score two more runs and give the Gamecocks a one-run cushion. Furman responded in the bottom half of the seventh though with the second homer of the game, a solo shot by Taylor Johnson to left field to tie it at 5-5, his third hit of the game. The bottom of the eighth, the Paladins caught a break as Alex Abrams reached base to open the inning on a fielding error by Dantzler at first base. With one out, Abrams would score as pinch hitter Griffin Davis' RBI double to the gap in right-center put Furman back in front by a run. The Gamecocks looked to rally one more time in the ninth as Celek drew a two-out walk followed by a walk to Rosenberg. Pinch hitter Grayson Greiner grounded into a fielder's choice to the shortstop for the final out of the game preserving Furman's win. South Carolina lost despite having 10 hits to Furman's nine in the game. Brison Celek reached base in all five plate appearances with a pair of hits. Johnson went 3-for-3 with three RBI with Chris Ohmstede 3-for-4 with a RBI and a run scored to lead Furman at the plate.
JACK OF ALL TRADES Wynkoop pitched 7.1 scoreless innings and struck out a career-high 10 batters in a 2-0 win over Eastern Kentucky on February 22. He allowed just three hits and one walk.
SEDDON SEALS IT Seddon has not allowed a run or a hit in 9.2 innings and owns five saves in eight appearances. He has 13 strikeouts on the year.
GREINER SHINES Greiner won the Tom Price award as the MVP for South Carolina in the weekend series vs. the Tigers. Greiner hit .400 (4-for-10) for the weekend with four runs scored. His grand slam homer helped lift South Carolina to a 9-6 win. He had a team-high four walks on the weekend as well.
CROWE MAKES AN IMPACT Crowe was honored twice by the Southeastern Conference in the first two weeks of the regular season. On February 24, he earned SEC Freshman of the Week honors after working 6.1 scoreless innings in a 6-0 win over Eastern Kentucky with just four hits allowed and one walk to pick up his second win of the season. The previous week, Crowe was SEC Pitcher of the Week. He had an impressive debut as he hurled 6.1 hitless innings in his first career start. Crowe walked just one and hit one batter while finishing with five strikeouts to earn his first career win in a Gamecock uniform. Bucknell had just one runner reach second base and none reach third base while Crowe was on the mound. Crowe retired 13 consecutive batters in a row before coming out of the game as he reached his pitch count total. A LITTLE BIT OF ENGLISH He played well in the Clemson series as he went 2-for-3 with the game-winning double in Sunday's 5-3 win against Clemson. English also had a solo homer in the Friday night 9-6 win over the Tigers.
MINCEY MAKES AN APPEARANCE Mincey has not allowed a run in a team-high eight relief appearances with just four hits allowed. He has 17 strikeouts in 10 innings pitched.
FRESHMEN MAKE A STATEMENT Several Gamecock position players earned their first career starts vs. Stetson and Brown. Freshman infielder Jordan Gore started at second in Sunday's 1-0 win with freshman Weber Pike at the designated hitter spot. Freshman catcher Logan Koch started the 4-2 win over Stetson on Wednesday. HOME SWEET HOME
South Carolina is 168-32 in all-time games at Carolina Stadium, a winning percentage of .840. That is the best winning percentage of all 14 SEC schools since opening the facility.

BakerTweet Alerts Customers on Twitter
Twitter is not just for people anymore. BakerTweet, designed by Poke London, lists their bakery goods when they come out of oven. The device is an Arduino board and Linksys WiFi adapter combined in a box. They scroll through a list and push a button to send out a pre-configured tweet. Installed in the Albion Cafe in London, it already has a following of over 300 customers. It's easy to understand why when you read one of their descriptions:
"Rocks of buttery, raisiny joy, freshly risen scones to slather with cream and jam - just being set out now."
Yummy. We are thinking that this may be a new trend and could be used in reverse, say if you were on your way home and wanted to pick up a pizza. "Dude, make me a Meat Lovers Med."

Nothing a hard reset won't take care of but I've never tried to just uninstall. SPB is probably not bad since it's just one cab but intsalling TF2D irequires about a dozen different cabs so you definitely want to master reset. Remember kids always back up your info!
ok. googled that and get an error on any page that returns to their website. Guess I can cross that company off my list of apps to investigate.
I'm not exactly sure what the difference between TF2D and Manilla 2d is but Manilla 2D is what I'm using in the screen shots I posted on page 2 or 3 of this thread. Here is a forum that goes into detail how to install Manilla 2D This is probably my favorite "skin" but takes a while to install and tweak, it uses almost all of your available phone memory (not including "my storage" and removable card), and it can be buggy at times. The reason I stopped using it was because my WIFI dissappeared which I guess is fairly common with it. I've since found how to get WIFI back but I don't feel like going through all the steps of reinstalling it.
Does the SPB Mobile Shell sort of run as an app and if you close it, you go back to the default home screen? I tried tinkering a little last night but it would always start me at the default screen with the sammy widgets and then the right soft button was for spb shell. Am I doing something wrong or is that just the way it is?
^looks cool, well done. I ended up really digging spb so I'm probably gonna hang on to it for awhile. It just feels more stable then TF2D and is much easier to install if for some reason you have to master reset. Can't wait to try spb 3.0 which is supposed to come out later this month.
U guys mind posting some updated screenshots of what your omnia looks like now and what you use? seriously i think thats my last question
I use SPB Mobile Shell 3.0 (with Mskip's Ultimate Pro) & S2u2. I'll show a few screens to give you an idea, but they are infinitely customizable. The very first one is my main screen; others available by swiping left or right. The shot with the glowing blocks is my S2u2 unlock screen. It is actually an animated GIF file in which white blocks appear and disappear randomly.
it's not a theme exactly just the way everything on the phone looks right now. Yeah I LOVE GARMIN mobile!!!!! ur background is awesome though, almost makes me wanna change the carbon fiber
I'm really digging the new mobile shell 3.5. Here is my current 5 tile lifestyle setup. Background is a closeup pic I took with the Omnia of Round Lake in Charlevoix Michigan a couple weeks ago but I change that often so I showed one of my new favorites from the SPB MS online catalog too. Far Left Calander and Weather (oops not shown), Left Center Tools & Games (under construction), Center Clock/Weather/Messages, Right Center Fav Apps, Far Right I'm using the new picture frame widget as links to my fav picture files. S2U2 to lock screen with a pic I took with my Omnia in my backyard of some leaves covered in morning dew.

Hi, lets make an exquisite corpse! This site explains how the game works. In this online version of the game, each player draws a 400x100 piece of the canvas and obscures it, leaving only a 10-pixel sliver for the next player to continue the image from.
21 comments
– latest 4:-The first layer is the template for the exquisite corpse. You may make it invisible, but don't bother adding your name to it, I'll do it. -The second layer is the one obscuring the other drawings. Here you must draw a black rectangle over your drawing, even if it's incomplete. Don't make it invisible, you'd ruin the game ;) -Merge your layers once you're done to save space and avoid confusion. -And don't look at or paint over the other players' layers! Part 1: DireOnion - DONE Part 2: Ty854 - DONE Part 3: p3ndragon - DONE Part 4: kristine - DONE Part 5: Nightmare - DONE |
I decided to start the collaboration! A different artist draws on each of the 30 64x64 pixels squares.
129 comments
– latest 4:I used PaintBBS because it is the simplest and easiest applet for small sized drawings. I hope it does not cause many problems! If someone does not understand something about the program I can explain. Also it is recommended that every artist finishes the picture in a single version. If you need to cancel a revision, please do not forget to click "Cancel Revision" to make sure the picture is not unintentionally locked.

– latest 4:As for this.. I don't know where the heck it came from.. I was originally going to think while drawing.. and I started off with a body, and then I was thinking... well, that's stupid and boring if they are just standing there, so then I was thinking of a peace sign, and thought.. noo.. and then it reminded me of a picture I had done before, and I started doodling off to the side of what the hand was doing, and then I got an idea.. and this is what happened 8D And I don't care if there are typos >_>

Well appointed new facility, centrally located and extremely accommodating staff. The included breakfast was well prepared and way beyond the typical corn flakes and juice. Again, an excellent wait staff. Highly recommend this lodging for people looking to enjoy the vibrant center of Iraklion. The shower facility is a little tight.. especially after a few days of Greek yogurt consumption.

Minutes pass…
Jhoota Kahin Ka (1979)
Khoon Bhari Maang (1988)
And of tortuous eye-searing aesthetics! It also defies convention in its lack of a "hero": all this film needs is Rekha. What a presence she has indeed!
By any standards (even mine) it cannot be called a good film. But I was never tempted to stop watching. I only ever even paused, in fact, long enough to refill my wine glass. How Bollywood manages to consistently churn out things which are dreadful but riveting is a mystery to me. Gemma liked this one too, because the cast included two highly intelligent animals: Raja the horse, and Jumbo the dog. She barked at both of them gleefully, no doubt in encouragement for their perspicacity and valiant attempts to combat evil.
Chalta Purza (1977)
The really burning question which this film poses (besides the standard corruption and wealth versus honor and poverty blah blah blah) is this: Which is worse, Rakesh Roshan's wig, or Rajesh Khanna's actual hair? Really, at times it's a toss-up. It does contain goodies such as a soothing all-white wedding-cake villain's lair with Ajit at the helm of said lair; Ranjeet, Manmohan and Kuljeet as Ajit's go-to guys; Parveen Babi at the height of her gorgeousness; several dismembered dolls and some genuinely funny moments. On the downside (besides the distracting wig/hair equation) is a seriously annoying child and a patchy nonsensical plot that wanders off on tangents, accompanied by a lot of overacting and very shallow characters.
Dillagi (1978)
Basu Chatterjee's films are difficult for me to like. There: I've said it! They tread a fine line: even the ones that do work for me (Piya Ka Ghar, Chhoti Si Baat), despite being funny and sweet, ultimately find me getting restless. The ones that don't work (Rajnigandha, Baaton Baaton Mein) just bore my socks off.
Dillagi had moments which made me laugh very hard (like the scene captured above where Dharmendra puts on one of Hema's saris so that his own rain-soaked clothes can dry). It also helped that I watched it with Beth, whose witty commentary kept me entertained even when the film didn't. It had potential, but in the end Hema's character was so egregiously tiresome that it made me want to poke my eyes out. It also rendered Dharmendra's pursuit of her—the essential plot point—completely unbelievable for me.
Swayamvar (1980)
A cute fairy-tale of a movie, elevated by the presence of Sanjeev Kumar and Shashi Kapoor.
Durga Devi (Nadira) is a rich widow with a stepdaughter, Shanti (Vidya Sinha), and a daughter, Roopa (Moushumi Chatterjee). She treats Shanti like a servant and is so ill-tempered that she can't keep an actual servant around for very long. So long-suffering, patient Shanti is perpetually left with all the work.

Jeter played only 17 games last year because of a nagging ankle injury. The Yankees final series of the regular season will be in Boston against the Red Sox Sept. 26-28. Jeter was a star in high school at Kalamazoo Central.
