Worthy Tails Animal Rescue
Our Adoptable Pet List
Click here to see our Happy Tails!
Our Featured Pet...
Our featured pet of the week is Juliette!! Juliette is a wonderfully sweet girl, she's very gentle and loving and can't wait to get into her forever home. She was found emanciated and lost out in the middle of nowhere. After lots of loving care, and gentle petting, she's coming out of her shell.
She adores kids, and gets along with playful gentle dogs. She likes to chase squirrels and I'm not so sure a cat wouldn't be mistaken for a squirrel so it would be better for her not to be in a cat home. She would probably be okay with an older cat that doesn't run, but would need CLOSELY supervised for a while when she first moves to her home. She loves to sit near you and be petted, she's housetrained and waiting for her very own house and bed. Juliette would be a great dog for someone that enjoys walking or hiking or even running. She has endless energy on walks, but settles down when in the house.
Do you have time to walk or run Juliette? It would make her day the most wonderful day everyday to have someone to love her and take her for walks.
Worthy Tails Animal Rescue is a new rescue, but it's foster homes are quite experienced! We work very hard on saving as many as we can, but yet not compromising the quality of care that each foster home provides for each dog or puppy. Our goal is to place healthy dogs and puppies into our adopters home, but yet be honest if any issues need to be addressed (i.e. seperation anxiety, food aggression, fearfulness, etc). In our years of experience, there is a home for every dog, but some dogs just take a lot longer in finding that right home, yet worth every effort that is taken! We thank you for considering our animals, but our animals thank you even more!!
Who We Are
We are a non-profit rescue groups that relies solely on adoption fees and private donations to provide the proper vetting for each one of our animals. Our goal is to place our animals in loving "furever" homes to live out the remainder of their lives. Some have many years to give to their new homes and sadly, some have just a few. Please consider giving an older dog a place to call his own as older dogs are found way too often in shelters. It is so sad for us to think that these dogs are being turned into shelters because they are being replaced by puppies or may have health issues. If you have a flexible work schedule and can "pop" home often, maybe consider a puppy. Puppies require a lot of care and attention to properly train them. When thinking about bringing a new pet into your home, please consider your lifestyle and what pet would be best suited for you and for them.
Adopting a friend
Considering on adopting a friend? That's great!! We require a completed application in order to meet our precious pets. I know, all the paperwork and all the waiting! We require completed applications as this is proof to us that you are quite serious about adoption and ready to make the commitment. We are all volunteers and do animal rescue in our spare time, so we would rather weed out those who are "just looking". Processing applications take time and we don't mind processing applications for our animals, but we don't want to take time away from our fosters animals if we don't have to. We normally have applicants approved in less than a week as we are a small rescue and prefer to stay that way. We know we can't save as many animals, but we are more focused on quality care for our animals and to our adopters. If you are interested in one of our animals, just go to our website at www.worthytails.rescuegroups.org; click on "online forms" and then to "adoption application". If you have any questions or problems with the application, please send an e-mail to firstname.lastname@example.com.
Come Visit Us!
We are not a shelter! The majority of our pets are in private foster homes and require completed and approved applications to meet our pets. Periodically, we are forced to place a dog into a local kennel until a foster home opens up for placement. Whether a dog is in foster home or kennel, we require a completed application and will gladly make arrangements for you to meet the pet in which you are interested!

Steamboat Springs residents debut brew at Steamboat OktoberWest
- Discuss Comment
Saturday, September 17, 2011
Steamboat Springs Curiosity was buzzing at Steamboat OktoberWest on Saturday as questions brewed under a banner for an unheard-of business that called Steamboat Springs home.
Locals and beer festival visitors were getting their first taste of the still-unnamed IPA and Irish red beers produced by Butcherknife Brewing Co.
"We've always believed Steamboat is ripe with opportunity for a hometown brewery, and things just get more and more exciting the more people learn about our plans," said Mark Fitzgerald, a five-year Steamboat resident who started planning seriously for the brewery in 2009.
Fitzgerald, 35, said he was not a beer drinker growing up, but he fell in love with it as an adult teaching in the Czech Republic.
Currently, the brewery is still a home-based operation, but Butcherknife plans to start large-scale production possibly by mid-2012.
"The recipes are dialed in," said Nate Johansing, who became Fitzgerald's business partner a year ago.
Johansing, 30, is a Colorado native who grew up ski racing in Steamboat and became passionate about beer when he started learning the chemistry behind hops, a primary ingredient.
Johansing recently returned from Germany, where he spent a year studying brewing. He now can be called Master Brewer Nate Johansing.
The founders are self-financed, but Fitzgerald said they may take on investors in the future. They are looking for Butcherknife's permanent home and want enough room to expand easily. They would take as much as 5,000 square feet of space if the price was good, Fitzgerald said. The brewery would include a tap room where people could taste the product and fill growlers.
Building a brand
When people associate brewery with Steamboat, they think of Mahogany Ridge Brewery and Grill at Fifth Street and Lincoln Avenue downtown.
The location has been home to a brewery since 1992, current owner Charlie Noble said.
He said they used to brew and distribute about 1,000 barrels each year. To put that in perspective, each of the vats located behind the Mahogany bar holds about 10 barrels.
These days, the focus at Mahogany is on supplying the restaurant, and about 450 barrels are brewed annually, Noble said.
Mahogany would maintain its niche operations with a new craft brewer in town.
"They're looking for shelf space in Central Park Liquors," Noble said. "I'm looking for customers coming through the door."
Noble wished Butcherknife good luck.
"Anything that brings attention to the industry is going to be positive," Noble said. "It keeps the romance of the brew pub."
With 4,000 square feet dedicated to brewing, Fitzgerald said they could produce between 4,000 and 8,000 barrels of beer each year if there was enough demand.
The plan is to produce the beer and work with distributors to get into liquor stores, bars and restaurants in Northwest Colorado, and then expand throughout the state and regionally.
"We're not looking to do a brew pub necessarily," Fitzgerald said.
Steamboat would be a large part of the Butcherknife brand, and they plan on incorporating its rustic cowboy American spirit along with its extreme athleticism.
"We've got the history and the future, and we want to be able to represent both of those," Fitzgerald said.
Pouring smiles
During Saturday's debut at OktoberWest, Butcherknife had three kegs and was filling mugs steadily with samples to many repeat tasters.
"The response has been phenomenal," Fitzgerald said. "We see a lot of people coming up with clear mugs, meaning we're the first ones they're visiting," Fitzgerald said.
Local residents raised their mugs to the new brewers in town.
"As someone who enjoys beer, I would like to see more breweries," said Steamboat resident Carol Lacey, holding a mug of the Irish red. "I think Steamboat could be a really good place to have that happen."
The beer will not be for sale until they get the brewery running, but Fitzgerald said residents will get a chance to try it during several promotions and events leading up to the opening.
"It's a market ripe with opportunity," he said.

Jimmy Fallon Shows Sinister Side of Late Night TV With 'House of Cue Cards' [VIDEOS]
Subscribe to PopCrush on
On Tuesday's (Aug. 12) episode of 'The Tonight Show,' Jimmy Fallon revealed his ruthless dark side in a hilarious 'House of Cards' parody, 'House of Cue Cards.'
Fans of the Netflix series are familiar with politician Frank Underwood, played by Kevin Spacey. From his Southern drawl to his consistency in breaking the third wall, the actor has made Underwood one of the most multi-faceted characters in on the small screen. Fallon mimics the character's mannerisms perfectly, right down to his stoic dialogue. Of course, Jimmy channels Frank's trademark ruthlessness into bolstering the success of his show.
No 'House of Cards' parody would be complete without a thrilling, suspenseful plotline — and that's exactly what Jimmy gives us! Over the course of two 'House of Cue Cards' segments, he receives texts from an unknown sender that lead up to a climactic finale.
Who is this mystery person? Will Jimmy continue to rule the late-night game? Watch 'House of Cue Cards' in the videos above and below to find out!

Professor Morales' talk will focus on the following:
Rather than a morbid obsession with dying, the Day of the Dead is an affirmation of life for those who prepare and visit alters beautifully adorned with colorful flowers, fanciful paper cutouts, decorated breads, candles, toy and candy skulls and skeletons and photographs of deceased loved ones. This talk will describe the history, practice and significance of the Day of the Dead celebrations in Mexico and beyond.
Light refreshments will be served.

Kournas, Chania Crete
Situated 45 kilometers far from Chania, at the Southeast, Kournas is a village with 500 permanent residents. The village has been built amphitheatrically, at the eastern foot of Lefka Ori (White Mountains) and it has a marvelous view to the homonymous lake, the bigger natural lake on the island.
Once at the area, the lake is worth a visit for the unique flora and fauna and the marvelous landscape. Swimming in the lake is allowed, and small boats can take you for a tour. A few taverns with delicious dishes including fish from the lake are available.
|Click on any image to enlarge
About 2 kilometers at the south of the lake and before arriving to the village, it is found the cave of Kournas and some 10 kilometers always at the south, by the village Kastellos there is the marvelous oak wood, a magnificent landscape with rich shade, very suitable for relaxing from the heat of summer.
Three local feasts ("panighyri") take place on the 29 th of August in honor of St. John, on the 5 th of May in honor of Aghia Irene and on the 6 th of August dedicated to Jesus Christ's Transfiguration (Village Patima).
A series of cultural activities take place in summer at the Kournas Lake.
Accommodation facilities are not available at the village ; apart from the taverns at the lake, a few cafes and restaurants, most of them with excellent local cuisine and fascinating view, are available in the village of Kournas, very suitable for eating in winter, when the weather does not allow eating at the banks of the lake.Access is possible by public bus from Chania, once a day except the weekends early in the morning; it is advised to check the return timetable in advance. Private and rented car and motorbikes is the best way to visit the place.

Recently, I engaged in a bit of a Twitter-debate around Internet dangers and kids. Our children are making adult decisions online and it's argued that these protections should be the responsibility of social media companies. Those who oppose restrictions and protections argue that it is up to parents to teach children best judgement and to exercise common sense online. I think this is absolutely absurd.
If the internet and InfoTech have become the background of our thoughts, something fundamentally human may be shifting. Our relationship to Nature, our footing on Earth. Our essential experience of human reality. InfoTech pioneers, brilliant engineers and visionaries, have had diverse motivations in leading this digital revolution. Originally, InfoTech wasn't all about money, though money is very much at the centre of it now. Many were thrilled at the democratic possibilities of an electronically connected world; some were dazzled by the chance to alter reality. By a chance to play God.
As of this writing, Canada is 12th, with one gold, five silver and 12 bronze medals. Let us all bow our heads and listen up to what Jerry Seinfeld says: "You win the gold -- you feel good, you win the bronze -- you think, "Well, at least I got something". But when you win that silver it's like, "Congratulations, you almost won. Of all the losers you came in first of that group. You're the number one loser." So at least we have something. A lot of something.

Lilongwe: Malawi Government on Wednesday released the Malawi Growth and Development Strategy (MGDS II) draft document which replaces the first MGDS that run from June 2006 and phases out in July this year. The release of the document comes barely a week after Malawi's major donors under the Common Approach to Budgetary Support (Cabs) threatened not to approve the new budget support for the country if the MGDS II is not finalised on time. The document was circulated at Crossroads Hotel in Lilongwe during a national consultative workshop where government solicited final feedback from a cross-section of stakeholders.
Deputy Minister of Development Planning and Cooperation Daniel Liwimbi said the successor strategy, just like its predecessor, will be a single reference document for the country's development programmes for the next five years (2011-2016). "It is a document that will see the country continuing with its achievements that have been attained in the past few years," said Liwimbi.
He recalled that prior to MGDS implementation, Malawi was experiencing poor economic growth rates which he said resulted into many Malawians being thrown into poverty trap. He said consequently, livelihoods of the majority of Malawians declined sharply. "The introduction of MGDS reversed these challenges," said the minister.
Liwimbi also assured stakeholders that the formulation of the second MGDS has been "highly" consultative and participatory. "I strongly feel, therefore, it represents a consensus on how Malawi can further accelerate the attainment of its development objectives."
He said the new document also incorporates lessons learnt from the implementation of the first MGDS.
Secretary for Development Planning and Cooperation Ted Sitimawina said apart from the consultations that his ministry undertook between September and December last year, the formulation process of the second MGDS also involved a number of reviews and studies.
Said Sitimawina: "We refer to the MGDS as a living document in the sense that some programmes and projects that started in the current MGDS will live on MGDS II."

Lack of jobs and higher university tuition fees have led to a growing number of teenagers and young people aspiring to be their own boss, according to new research by PC World Business. With A-level and GCSE results recently published and a sixth of young people classed as NEET (not in education, employment or training), there is a new trend emerging of young people looking to set-up their own business.
Nearly half (44 per cent) of young people are looking to set up their own business and are using technology to supercharge their business ideas and get them off the ground. Forty four per cent said they could run their whole business using just a laptop and internet connection, leading to them being dubbed the Generation Y Not? entrepreneurs.
These budding entrepreneurs are not waiting around to start their enterprises. Eight out of 10 16-year-olds have had a business idea for two years or less (some since they were only 14-years-old) and nearly half (46 per cent) are aiming to set up on their own in the next two years. Now is the perfect time for young people to think about setting up a business. Technology can really support them when setting up and it is vital that any young entrepreneur gets the right advice first time round to save time and money.
However, there are barriers to setting up your own business. A lack of funding is the biggest hurdle for young people looking to be their own boss (42 per cent) and 29 per cent said they did not know where to start.
Help is out there but it is just about knowing where to turn to. Technology offers many businesses the opportunity to stay ahead in a competitive market in a cost effective way. Small business owners and start ups do not have to spend a fortune on expensive technology to set up their business.

Thanks to the tireless data mining by OCC, we have a good idea of who the Cowboys have openly interviewed so far. Although we don't know if the team has pulled off some stealth interviews or just how much smokescreen may be involved in the entire process, it does seem likely that the players the team was interested in talking to have some correlation to what the Cowboys are planning to do. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Related: Cowboys Visit Tracker: Stephon Gilmore, Jamell Fleming, 14 Other DBs Visit Dallas -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The title of OCC's post tells one thing right off the bat: The Cowboys are going hard after the defensive secondary. It's not just the sheer number of the secondary players that the team has interviewed. On the chart that breaks down the players by position, there is a convenient column that gives the ranking for each player from the perspective of CBSsports. Dallas is not just looking at a lot of defensive backs; it is looking at a lot of good ones. They have five of the top 100 players on the list of cornerbacks, and two of the safeties also are from the top 100 in a class that is weak at that position. That is half of the secondary players that they looked at that are seen as worthy of a first, second or third round pick. I think it would be almost impossible for the team to not take a d-back in the first three rounds.

Navigating through this unusual winter
February is just around the corner and this so-called winter continues to show no serious grip.
The cold comes, followed by a thaw, then a little teaser of snowfall here and there. Nothing like what we encountered last year, that is for sure.
We are still seeing fish houses and vehicles going through the ice. People are driving cars and trucks on a lot of the local lakes and you also see a number of ATV/UTV's cruising around.
But seeing a snowmobile on the ice or on the trails around here is almost as rare as spotting a mountain lion roaming through your back yard. In fact, my wife called me the other day from the road and sounded very surprised — she spotted a snowmobiler!
I have been running a Polaris Ranger this winter and it has been the ideal machine for the conditions. You just never know what we will get for conditions here in the winter so maybe this is the best of both worlds. I am trading in the tires for tracks and hopefully this means we will get a measurable snowfall or two before the grass starts to get green.
The Brainerd Jaycees $150,000 Ice Fishing Extravaganza is Feb. 11 and it should be interesting to see what the fish take will be.

Discussion in 'Off The Beaten Track' started by Garden Kitty, Nov 6, 2012.
Me too, bar none, no two ways about it. My second is mashed potatoes.
Vodka. Oh, wait...that's not a food. Turkey, chicken, cookies, basically anything that I can bake that makes the entire house smell yummy.
I thought vodka was made from potatoes? Sounds like a food to me.
That's like the time my friend proved that chocolate is a vegetable.
I did not argue with his conclusion.
That's right! Then vodka it is!!!
Chips and Salsa (or is that a comfort snack?)
As far as something more substantial goes, I would say mashed potatos with chicken gravy and big, tender, chuncks of chicken - topped off with a fresh, warm yeast roll.
Another vote for homemade mac and cheese. I use 2 cheeses and evaporated milk.
Crockpot chicken and noodles.
Homemade chicken orzo soup. Lots of carrots.
Apple cake - I make it a lot in the fall. Another fall dessert favorite is cherry crisp topped with vanilla ice cream.
And my favorite - muffins. There's something awesome about a little foil cup that's perfect for breakfast or dessert. My current favorite is a cranberry orange one (I baked a pre hurricane batch of them), but I make a decent blueberry one too. Still looking for the perfect chocolate chip muffin recipe...
And my drink of choice - Hot chocolate with a shot of Baileys.
My husband's crockpot beef stew, and I'm not even much of a red meat person, but it is so good, and so simple.
Also, my husband's grilled salmon. (he cooks, I clean up, its a great arrangement!)
And dark swiss chocolate, or Droste (Dutch) bittersweet chocolate medallions.
Just put an olive in it, then you have a balanced meal.
Homemade chicken noodle soup
Cheezy tuna noodle casserole
Stuffed green peppers
White chili with chicken
B&J's Coffeee Heath Bar Crunch ice cream. Price Chopper is running a BOGO special this week, and with the election today... I may need something to tide me over while watching the returns come in tonight.
Mashed potatoes! Beyond that... coffee ice cream and ginger ale.
homemade chocolate chip cookies.
Pizza, bread, Indian food, and chocolate
Homemade chicken and dumplings, my mom's beef vegetable soup, and freshly baked yeast bread with butter.
The family spaghetti recipe, any stew, hot & sour soup.
For something quick my choice is a grilled cheese sandwich, preferably with a mix of cheeses.
For a longer cook meal: lasagna, made a day ahead so all those wonderful spices, sauces, meat, mushrooms, and veggies meld together.
A good meatloaf and homemade mashed potatoes.
Since I'm Chinese, steamed pork buns. Soup dumplings are even better!
Cheesecake! Specifically I love the fudge brownie cheesecake from Cheesecake Bistro. It is a normal slice of cheesecake but with big pieces of brownie sprinkled all over and hot fudge drizzled on top with whipped cream. YUM!
For me it depends on what I need comforting from. If it's general feeling blah / tired / ennui, then definitely mac & cheese. Hands down. If I need more instant gratification, then cheese-on-toast.
But for comfort from a cold/flu, nothing beats soup. Creamy squash or tomato, or tomato rice, or miso, or broccoli & corn, or yam & coconut, or hot and sour ... or just about any other kind of vegetarian soup will do.
I don't consider chocolate a comfort food. It's a basic food group.
Chocolate does nothing for me. Sure, the odd brownie packed with walnuts and topped with fudgy icing is enjoyable, but given the choice, I'd take a bag of chips and tub of sour cream any day.
But I'm with those who support vodka as a food group - and don't forget the health benefits when fruit juices are added.
The potato: French fried, mashed, baked, scalloped, au gratin, chips etc......
Exactly. The potato is your mother in vegetable form -- your mother when she was being nice and comforting and not nagging you.
Maybe the potato is your blankie.
I'll never look at a potato in quite the same way again. ( I wish I could stop eating so many of them.)
I have to ration potato consumption. Especially with the mashed and baked ones, which actually are a delivery system for butter.
And sour cream and chives or green onions!
Love the idea that it's your mother in vegetable form. Maybe not my mother and certainly not my mother in law, but as a concept
You two are making my mouth water. So Jenny what vegie is your mother in law?
at least with my own mother, who is not a great cook, I have childhood memories to warm me. But MIL, who has many outstanding qualities, is not the first person who comes to mind when discussing any kind of food, let alone one's favourite dishes

Online bankers face double layer of security
Page Tools
Internet banking customers will be required to use mobile phones or carry plastic tokens to log into their accounts as banks tighten up security for online services.
The chief executive of the Australian Bankers' Association, David Bell, said an industry standard requiring all banks to use two methods of identifying internet customers would be introduced later this year. Internet fraud was costing Australian banks more than $25 million a year in losses, he said. Under the standard, each bank will choose its own method of secondary identification, which Mr Bell said would be based on "something customers have", as distinct from "something they know".
Research by the bankers' group has found that customers do not want to use biometric devices that involve physical contact, such as fingerprints, because of privacy concerns.
Banks are testing systems that send text messages to customers when they first enter a bank's website. The message contains an extra number that is needed to complete the transaction.
Last year, Bendigo Bank began testing security tokens that fit on a key ring and will soon make the system mandatory. About 20 per cent of its internet banking clients now use the devices, which they must buy. A standard token, costing $16.50, has an internal clock that generates random numbers, recognised as unique to that customer by Bendigo's computer system. On each transaction, the customer must type the number into their computer within a time limit. A premium model of the token, for office use, costs $99.
Once activated, the tokens must be used every time a customer banks online. "It is a very tiny inconvenience," a Bendigo Bank spokesman said. "When you leave the car, you take a few seconds to lock it."
A spokeswoman for the Australian Consumers' Association, Lisa Tait, said banks should not be charging customers for security devices and they should also provide updated anti-virus software free of charge.
"Online banking is cheap for banks," she said. "After all, going into a branch is more secure."
The use of text messaging raised its own security issues. "What if someone steals your phone?" Ms Tait asked.
The Australian Federal Police Commissioner, Mick Keelty, said 8 million Australians regularly used internet banking. Although the online banking system in Australia had never been subjected to a major hacking attack, customers were being targeted by "phishing" email scams, trojans and key loggers. These are all methods used by online criminals to steal users' passwords.
The consumers' association said the banks placed too much onus on customers to protect themselves when high-technology scams were becoming increasingly sophisticated.

Books claiming to unlock secret codes embedded in the letters or words of the Bible have returned to the limelight.1-4 Such books are not new; they've appeared many times through the centuries. But the application of advanced computer technology in the search for these "encoded messages" is new. New, too, are the media's "advertising" capabilities. When Oprah Winfrey expresses enthusiastic interest, Time and Newsweek feature full-page reviews, and Warner Brothers executives negotiate film rights, no wonder one of these titles rockets to the top of The New York Times bestseller list.
Calculations demonstrating the statistical improbability of such messages appearing by chance seem impressive. They hint that the message must have a supernatural source. The argument looks the same as my own argument for divine design. But, as journalists covering politics often say, "There are lies, damned lies, and then there are statistics."
Actually, statistics are not the problem. Abuse of statistics is. Code publicists argue that the probability of finding a complex message within a limited word or letter sequence is so low that chance cannot explain it. Herein lies the statistical fallacy: they claim that their sample size is small and that the number of possible significant messages is one. Neither claim is true.
One author claims that every 50th letter in a certain Bible book produces a brief but deliberately planted message. Let's consider the plausibility of that claim. First, does that message appear in the 50th letter of every language in which that book has been published, or does it just show up in the English, or Greek, or what?
Second, every 50th letter does not represent the only skip sequence that could be searched. Every 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc. skip letter sequence could have been searched, as well. The probability of finding a short message in hundreds or thousands of different skip letter sequences is relatively high. And, if we look not only at skip letter sequences but at skip word, skip sentence, and skip paragraph sequences, the probability grows larger yet.
Third, the number of messages searchers are willing to consider significant is not limited to one. The probability for finding one out of a thousand or a million different messages embedded in a skip sequence is far higher than it is for finding one out of one.
Fourth, the Bible contains not one book but many. The probability of finding a short message in a skip sequence in one out of 66 different books is much higher than it is for finding that same message in one book only.
Fifth, if the letters or words in a skip sequence are many compared to the number of letters or words in the embedded message, the probability of finding a message again increases substantially.
Some message can be found in some skip sequence for any book exceeding a few tens of thousands of words. Many Muslims, for instance, insist the Qur'an must be God's holy book because the words in the first 19 letters of the Qur'an appear throughout the Qur'an in multiples of 19.5 Here, again we encounter a statistical fallacy. If a Qur'an-length book were filled with randomly generated letters, the chance of finding some "words" repeated in multiples of some integer would be 100 percent. You may test me on this point by doing a variety of letter or word sequence or repetition searches through a dictionary or an encyclopedia.
This same kind of statistical fallacy has led (or rather misled) Christians through the years. In the seventies and eighties, I saw it in attempts to identify the antichrist, or beast, of Revelation. Some folks fingered Henry Kissinger by converting the letters in his name to their Greek equivalents and then assigning numbers to each. Ronald Reagan was suspected by those who noticed that there were six letters in each of his three names. This kind of end-times mathematical gymnastics has damaged Christians' credibility in our culture.
I must add that well-trained scientists commit statistical fallacies, too. A famous astronomer found stars oriented around common centers in perfect circles. He persuaded his peers, for a time, at least, that huge explosions were producing star births at precise distances out from the center.
The star birth theory quickly (and quietly) burst, however, when a student produced a computer-generated map of two million randomly scattered stars. His map produced as many perfect circles as (or more than) the astronomer had found. Why? The sample size of stars in our galaxy is so enormous (200 billion) that if we seek to transcribe on them perfect circles, squares, triangles, or whatever, we can.
This incident helps explain what's wrong with a couple of books I came across many years ago, attempts to show that the specific elements of the Gospel are depicted in the twelve constellations typically associated with (and wrongly so) astrology." My conclusion is that a person could see it only if he knew the Gospel first, and even then it was an imaginative stretch.
I oppose the search for hidden codes both on a mathematical basis and on a biblical basis. The book of Colossians condemns the pursuit of secret mysteries and esoteric messages. Paul exhorts Timothy to devote himself to reading, preaching, and teaching from Scripture.' He warns Timothy and us that "the time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine.... Instead, they will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths." 9 With so much still to learn and understand and apply in the words of the Bible, who can afford to waste time and effort looking past those words?

Earthquake Rattles Ontario, Quebec
An earthquake and quick aftershock struck central Canada Friday, rattling residents and buildings in Ontario and Quebec and reports of tremors as far away as Ohio.
Earthquakes Canada says at 9:43 a.m. EST it registered a 5.2-magnitude temblor with an epicentre located about 17 kilometres northeast of Shawville, Que., about an hour's drive outside Ottawa.
Less than 10 minutes later, a 4.2-magnitude aftershock was also recorded near the town of Braeside, Ont. The two towns are located about 33 kilometres away from each other across the Ottawa River.
There have been no reports of damage so far, said Taimi Mulder, a seismologist at the Geological Survey of Canada.

My dog didn't even bat an eyelash. So much for the intuition of animals. #TOQuake
Ah, so it WASN'T my imagination as the bed wobbled underneath me and the dog paced around the bedroom, growling :D #TOquake
Felt my first earthquake! My bed and clothes in my closet shaking on their hangers #jurassicpark styles. #TOQuake http://t.co/txP2uYjirc
At Yonge & Finch, went up and down for a few seconds. All in all, I'd rather not. #toquake
Quake registers 4.8. You have to go back almost 8 years for a quake anywhere close to that magnitude in S. Ontario: 4.3 on Oct 20th, 2005.
Only one staff member at Landscape Ontario office in Milton felt quake; said monitor shook.
(I'm in Bowmanville, so this Ontario quake seems to have been felt widely!)
"Earth Quake rocks southern Ontario as Leaf's fans jump off ban wagon "
To everyone who felt the earth quake I just wanna clear the air. It was Rob Ford falling down the stairs
And now it's raining toads MT @DaveGuyHfx: Duffy, Ford, quake in Ontario, and right now fully armed soldiers are walking around Halifax
Rob Ford denies being in crack tape. Toronto gets hit with a 4.8 quake. Coincidence? I think not.
Toronto Star is putting together headline now, that minor quake in Ontario was actually the fault of Toronto Mayor Ford.
Thanks twitter for informing me there was an earth quake this morning, unfortunately my kiosk is still standing
The quake touched off an eruption of reaction on Twitter as users reported buildings shaking in Ottawa for several seconds; it was also felt in cities as far away as Toronto, Montreal and Waterloo, Ont.
Twitter users in Ohio also said they felt the aftershocks. Mulder said she wouldn't be surprised because Northern Ohio is about the same distance from the epicentre as Montreal.
An earthquake of the 5.0 magnitude feels "like a really sharp jolt if you're really close to it," Mulder said.
"When you get further away the larger earthquakes start feeling like a low rolling motion and you're just approaching that around a magnitude five," she added.
Mulder said earthquake shock waves come in two variations, like treble and bass on a stereo.
"So it's like the high notes or the low notes and the high stuff is really high frequency, so they don't travel very far and that's what people hear and feel when you're close," she explained.
"When you're further away, it's like the bass notes [which travel further], so it's the low rumbling feeling."
Ontario sits inside the North American continental plate and the earthquake was likely the eventual result of the edges of the plate bumping against another tectonic plate, which made its way through to find a pre-existing area of weakness that ruptured, Mulder said.
The absolute magnitude for that type of magnitude is 7.0 or 8.0 on the Richter scale, she added.
Earthquakes in Ontario are not unheard of. In 2011 a 5.8 quake in Virginia could be felt as in parts of Ontario. Earlier this year, a small quake rattled western Quebec. And on June 23, 2010, a 5.0 magnitude earthquake happened in Central Canada, the epicentre north of Ottawa in Quebec.
Though it may appear they are becoming more common, they are actually just being reported more often and faster.
Before the Internet, Earthquakes Canada collected reports of occurrences by surveys that were mailed through Canada Post.
Now they can be reported instantly through a questionnaire on the Earthquakes Canada website, Mulder said.
"We think they're happening more frequently because our communications are a lot better now than they were 20 years ago."
More from The Canadian Press:
The original quake was powerful enough to shake the big stone and brick building that houses the municipal offices in Shawville, said the community's mayor.
"The windowsill, the walls seemed to shift up and down," Mayor Albert Armstrong told The Canadian Press. "My cabinet behind me was shaking and twisting.
"I've lived here all my life and I've never witnessed one like that before."
The quake touched off an eruption of reaction on Twitter as users reported buildings shaking in Ottawa for several seconds; it was also felt in Toronto.
Ontario Provincial Police in Arnprior, Ont., not far from the epicentre, said they had received no reports of damage.
The quake was slightly stronger than the last one of significance to hit the region — a magnitude 5.0 earthquake that was felt on the afternoon of June 23, 2010.
That quake's epicentre was situated in the area of Buckingham, Que., about 56 km north of Ottawa.
Ontario and Quebec residents, let us know in the comments if you felt the earthquake.

but you'd rather edit a spec file and rebuild an rpm to do it?
a) If groups change between distro revs, the package's .spec doesn't have to maintain a silly set of %if statements to set the correct group for each distribution release.
b) The maintainer of the .spec -- who, in an ideal world, is the upstream developer -- needn't worry about inter-distribution politics (or take sides) when setting the group header.

One of the most famous cases of awful plastic surgery gone wrong, Hang Mioku, a 48 year-old woman from South Korea, became so addicted to plastic surgery that she was left unrecognisable after her obsession led her to inject cooking oil into her face. She had her first plastic surgery procedure when she was 28. Following operation after operation, her face was eventually left enlarged and disfigured, and the surgeons she visited refused to carry out any more work on her and one suggested that her obsession could be a sign of a psychological disorder. So Hang resorted to injecting cooking oil into her face. It became so grotesquely large that she was called "standing fan" by children in her neighbourhood - due to her large face and small body.
Known by the press by the nickname of "The Bride of Wildenstein" (a reference to The Bride of Frankenstein), Jocelyn Wildenstein has allegedly spent almost US$4,000,000 on cosmetic surgery over the years, ending up as one of the worst and most famous cases of plastic surgery addiction.
Once upon a time, in the late 70's there was a beautiful women named Jocelyn Wildenstein. Jocelyn really had it made. She was a fresh-faced mother of two and married to an extremely rich art dealer. That is until she caught her husband in bed with a 21 year old Russian model. Now, any normal person would just leave her husband and take all of his money with her, right? Not Jocelyn Wildenstein! Instead she decided to win back her husbands love and make herself more beautiful by going under the knife. Well, her husband left her anyways, but Jocelyn will always have her plastic surgeon.
Pete Burns, former frontman of the British 80's band Dead or Alive, famous for their single "You Spin Me Round (Like a Record)", has had extensive polyacrylamide injections into his lips, along with cheek implants, several nose re-shapings and many tattoos. He revealed in early 2006 that he had spent almost all of his life savings on 18 months of reconstructive surgery after a procedure on his lips went horribly wrong.
Michael Jackson looked absolutely normal back in the 70's and 80's, attractive even, before turning into the sideshow freak that he became later in life. He was rumored to have had more than 10 surgical procedures on his nose.
Italian socialite Michaela Romanini. This lip collagen abuser is only 40 years old, and became famous after her many surgeries.
Once a poverty-stricken young boy, Amanda Lepore's countless surgeries have made her one of the world's most famous transexuals. She had her first plastic surgery at the age of 15, getting a sex change in her last year of high school, and countless surgeries after that.
