9. Kenneth Sims
10. Derrick JohnsonThe voting for the top spot was very close, but in the end the votes were tabulated and Inside Texas subscribers have spoken: Vince Young is the greatest player in the history of Texas football.
Young's performance at the University of Texas was so transcendent that not only does he top the list of players in the history of Texas football, but he's in the argument with Red Grange, Jim Thorpe, Herschel Walker and others for the greatest ever in sport of college football. Young was 30-2 as a starter for Texas and is the only player in NCAA history to throw for 3,000 and rush for 1,000 in a season. He ranks fifth in Texas history in both passing, with 6,040 yards, and rushing, with 3,127 yards and scored 81 touchdowns. Leading the Longhorns to comeback win after comeback win, Young's greatest game was his last at Texas, the 2006 Rose Bowl. Totaling 467 yards and three touchdowns, Young led Texas to a 41-38 come-from-behind victory in the most dramatic of fashions, scoring with an eight-yard touchdown run on 4th-and-5 with 19 seconds left in the game. Young's heroics gave Longhorn fans their first National Championship in 35 years.
Very close behind Young in the voting is Earl Campbell. Winner of the 1977 Heisman Trophy, the Tyler Rose ran for 4,443 hard yards and 41 touchdowns. Powerful and graceful, tough and lean, he was the greatest running back ever to wear the Burnt Orange. After his career, Campbell was inducted into both the College Football and NFL Halls of Fame.
At No. 3 on the list is Tommy Nobis. Considered the greatest linebacker to ever play for Texas, Nobis was also a dominant offensive guard. The two-time All-American won both the Outland Trophy and Maxwell Award, averaging nearly 20 tackles per game.
Fourth is Ricky Williams, one of the most prolific players ever to play the sport. Williams' 6,279 yards and 72 touchdowns broke the NCAA's All-Time Rushing Yardage, Touchdown and Scoring records. The 1998 Heisman Trophy winner holds or shares 20 NCAA records.
Next there's Bobby Layne. One of the best quarterbacks in Texas history, Layne did it all, running, passing and even kicking field goals for the Longhorns. He led Texas to one of the biggest wins in school history, 1948 Sugar Bowl victory over No. 6 Alabama.
No. 6 is Jerry Gray, the best defensive back in Texas football history. The two-time consensus All-American had 297 tackles and 16 INTs at UT.
Up next is James Street. Street was 20-0 as the starting quarterback for the Texas Longhorns. He had many other impressive statistics and accomplishments at Texas, but no stat of his is more remembered than 20-0.
No. 8 is the top offensive lineman in Texas football history, Jerry Sisemore. The two-time consensus All-American was a massive offensive tackle who towered over the other players in his era.
No. 9 is dominating defensive tackle Kenneth Sims. Sims was the first Longhorn ever to win the Lombardi award and had 131 tackles as a DT in his final year at Texas.
Finally there's Derrick Johnson. 458 tackles, school record 65 tackles for loss, 10.5 sacks, 10 INTs, NCAA single-season record 9 forced fumbles, the Bronko Nagurski Trophy, the Butkus Award and a two-time All-American.
Just off the list: Roosevelt Leaks
Some other notable Longhorns receiving votes: Scott Appleton, Chris Gilbert, Roy Williams, Michael Huff, Steve McMichael, Steve Worster, James Saxton, Bud McFadin, Tony Brackens, Dan Neil, Eric Metcalf, Leonard Davis, Bill Bradley, Hub Bechtol, Lam Jones, Cedric Benson…and one kicker receiving two 10th place votes: Russell Erxleben.

Finally I am successful!!!
So this was the third time at the cable park and on my first time out I managed to go around the course without falling on those fucking turns. It turned out that my major problem was handling the speed that the turn creates.
I am pretty stoked about it, now is when the sport gets expensive. I need a new helmet, because the helmet that I rent is florescent yellow and that basically screams !!!NEWBY!!! (not that I am not a one, but still you know :D). Then theres the nice looking life vest but thats another story.
So far I enjoy it a lot, but today I found out that the late afternoon crowds are loaded with kids. I am going to stick to early morning, that way I can get more runs for my $$$. Either way after 2 hours of ridding you are dead, thats a fucking nice workout.
I will post more pictures later on.
pics or it didnt happen :laugh:
^^^^^^ I know, it sucks I was alone so I didn't even take an pictures. Next week Ill take a friend with me and I will take a video, it sucks that my didgital camera does not have an optical zoom, but I will try to get a good vid either way.
Now I am so fucking sore, but overall my body is responding pretty good to the sport.
Are you kidding me, wake boarding demands way more than snowboarding does. The workout you get in the upper body is insane, yesterday I realize how unfit I am. Although maybe snowboarding is much harder one the legs, but is also debatable. I wish I could afford it to do it more often, but right now I am not able to do it.
Damnit! I almost broke my screen trying to kill that bug! :dunno:
where is this cable park? i have never heard of this?
Can you learn from scratch in a cable park, or should you try wakeboarding behind a boat first? And what does it cost to do the cable park and rental?

Music in Strange Places
This week, All Ears explores music which transports the listener to a different time and place.
The show begins in Scotland with a piece by Raymond Scott before moving into a place that evokes a 15th-century cathedral. From there, we move on to a dank prison in Kentucky and to what sounds like a sanitary prison in France. In the end we visit Mali and hear music played on its traditional instrument, the kora.
Other stops along the journey include Cage's She is Asleep and Ellington's Liberian Suite: Dance No. 3. Those compositions represent specific places and sounds associated with them. We also make a detour with Michael Harrison's Night Vigil or Kayhan Kalhor's Silent City. Although not programmatic, these pieces also conjure the idea or feeling of place.
Where does this music take you? What did the Michael Harrison represent for you after hearing Dido's Lament? Please leave your comments below and get comfortable for a two-hour journey through sound.

Relaunching the blog with photos of a newborn session I did recently.
Prior to the shoot I was pretty exited because I'm inexperienced in shooting newborns – and I was a little bit worried whether that little cutie would enjoy my presence or just start crying once I enter the room, but everything went perfectly smooth. Yay!
Luckily, we had gorgeous backlight shining through a huge window in the living room. It was November (uhmm, yeah, I am that much behind with blogging), and already pretty cold outside, but we jumped outside for a few minutes anyway and took some last shots in the backyard. Totally worth it.
I really like the idea that these photos will always remind the family of the early childhood of their daughter.

0.025-0.30mm has1 hole mark whic is standard.
0.031-035mm has 2 holes
0.036-0.042mm has 3 holes along the edgeto indicate thickness classification. Ihave been searching the Internet trying to find who manufacture this type of head gasket to no avail.please advise who manufacture this type.

Keeping the Dream Alive
Oh, the irony. The song White Christmas was written by Irving Berlin in 1942 for the movie musical Holiday Inn. The song became so popular it was once said you couldnt have Christmas without permission from Berlin. The irony? Irving Berlin didnt like Christmas; he lost his infant son Christmas Day and remained bittersweet about the holiday for the rest of his life.
The songs true meaning is deeper than the light, crisp tune; it speaks of a dream, a Christmas that once was. The tune grew in popularity with soldiers, who were missing the holidays because they were being shipped off to serve in World War II. In 1954 it became the title song of the musical White Christmas. Now presented by the Actors' Playhouse at the Miracle Theatre through December 31, it tells a story of love, loss, postwar malaise, and dreams of a White Christmas. Showtimes are Wednesday through Friday at 8:00 p.m., Saturday at 3:00 and 8:00, and Sunday at 2:00. There will be two additional Wednesday matinee performances December 6 and 13 at 2:00 as well as a New Years Eve performance at 7:00. Tickets range from $35.50 to $50. Call 305-444-9293, or visit www.actorsplayhouse.org.
Wednesdays-Saturdays, 8 p.m.; Saturdays, 3 p.m.; Sundays, 2 p.m.; Wednesdays, 2 p.m.; Sun., Dec. 31, 7 p.m. Starts: Nov. 17. Continues through Dec. 13

How long did it take for you to trust your puppy?
For those with puppies past the age of 6 months or even those of you who own adult dogs and remember the puppy days.. how long did it take for you to trust your puppy? In terms of potty training, biting and chewing things, getting into trouble, etc. How old were they when they were able to have free roam of the house without much problem.
I cannot wait for that day. I feel it will never come sometimes. My pup is 16 weeks old today and while her chewing and eating random things on the ground like leaves and barks are a lot less than before, I still need an eagle eye on her. indoors she still has accidents and bites and eats things around the house. All of her accidents have happened right under my nose while tethered to me on a leash. Her squatting down takes less time than for my reaction time to kick in and me standing up and running over to her to stop her. But I always catch her in the act 100% of the time.
The other issue is crying and separation anxiety. It's funny because she didn't cry much at all when I got her but it's gotten worse instead of better. She was crate trained in the garage and she didn't cry that much where now she is indoors and older and she is crying even more. I believe before she was crying as a puppy because she was in a new environment and alone. Now it has turned into separation anxiety as it occurs whenever I leave the room or if she sees me leave through the front door. It will occur when I leave even when other family members are next to her as she spends the most time with me. I'll play with her and then crate her and she'll cry, yelp, whimper. I know what to do and it's being addressed but geez, it's been over a week and she still does it. Just wondering how long it took everyone before they can comfortably trust their puppy. If she's not crate trained, she is always tethered to me on a leash. She will naturally follow me whereever I go anyway.
Around what age should I expect a little more peace and quiet? I hope this isnt replaced with worse behavior at the adolescent stages haha

Intel is now going to be a busy bee over Honeycomb, pairing it with its new Oak Trail chipset, made with the 45nm production technology, for 6-8 slates coming out this year. Mr Otellini confirmed that a number of top-tier notebook vendors are working on producing Oak Trail tablets with Honeycomb. The other day an Asus Eee Pad Slider briefly appeared on Intel's website in that respect, but was subsequently pulled down. For all we know, this one was supposed to ship with Tegra 2.
Intel's CEO also said the Medfield smartphone chip is also in full swing, and he'd be "very surprised" if we don't see an Intel-powered smartphone within a year or so. Medfield will be produced with the 32nm process, meaning smaller footprint and power consumption, whereas none of the ARM chips is yet fabricated this way, so this could work to Intel's advantage, if they speed up the whole procedure.
Interestingly enough, the other day reported about the Oak Trail-based tablet Maestro C, which triple-boots Windows 7, Android and MeeGo, and the manufacturer claims 16+ hours of battery life in Android mode. At the CES 2011 show Evolve III, the company behind those tablets, said they are routinely getting 16-20 hours of battery from the 10" tablet with an Intel chip inside, which is more than double what the current ARM-based Tegra 2 tablets achieve, running Honeycomb. The future certainly looks promising.

A 2012 video of a speech made by a gay and lesbian activist is just starting to gain some legs, and is in fact confirming what many opponents of same-sex marriage have been saying all along — that gay marriage diminishes and even destroys the concept of marriage.
Masha Gessen, author and LGBT activist, delivered her remarks almost a year ago at the Sydney Writer's Festival while participating on a panel titled, "Why Get Married When You Can Be Happy?"
Gessen shot out of the gate by stating that "it's a no-brainer" that gays and lesbians should be allowed to marry. But then she immediately followed this up with, "I also think equally it's a no-brainer that the institution of marriage should not exist."
This received prolonged, spirited applause.
"Fighting for gay marriage generally involves lying about what we're going to do with marriage when we get there," she continued.
Gessen's thoughts mirror those of another gay activist, Doug Mainwaring. Speaking on behalf of the National Capitol Tea Party Patriots at the National Mall when the Supreme Court was hearing oral arguments on the Defense of Marriage Act, Mainwaring said, "Same sex marriage will not redefine marriage — it will un-define it, and unravel it, and in so doing will un-define children."
Michael Bronski is another gay who recently argued against the concept of gay marriage in a column on Belief.com.
But what distinguishes Gessen's remarks from the others is the fact that although she supports gay marriage, she nonetheless admits that the concept is a lie.
H/T The Blaze.

Scared Swayze says may have only 2 years to live

LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Actor Patrick Swayze, in his first television interview since being diagnosed with pancreatic cancer last year, said he was scared, angry and "going through hell" and may only have two years to live.
A year after his diagnosis with one of the most deadly forms of cancer, the "Dirty Dancing" star told TV interviewer Barbara Walters that he already has defied survival rates and reports predicting he should have "been dead a long time."
But he acknowledged his time may be short. "I'd say five years is pretty wishful thinking. Two years seems likely if you're going to believe statistics. I want to last until they find a cure, which means I'd better get a fire under it."
The American Cancer Society says pancreatic cancer has only a five percent, five-year survival rate. The majority of patients die within six months.
"You can bet I'm going through hell," Swayze told Walters in the interview to be broadcast on ABC on Wednesday.
"There's a lot of fear here ... Yeah, I'm scared. Yeah, I'm angry. Yeah, I'm (asking) why me?" Swayze, 56, told Walters.
But he denied reports he was near death. "Am I dying? Am I giving up? Am I on my death bed? Am I saying goodbye to people? No way."
Swayze said doctors diagnosed stage 4 pancreatic cancer last January, with the cancer already having spread to his liver. Continued...

Location: Subtropical Horticulture Research2013 Annual Report
1a. Objectives (from AD-416):
The development and implementation of an international Marker Assisted Selection (MAS) program for cacao is the major objective of this project. This objective involves a combination of hypothesis-driven and non-hypothesis driven research and includes the training of scientists from cacao producing countries in plant breeding, genetics, and the use of molecular markers in a MAS program.
1b. Approach (from AD-416):
Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP)s, both as single base pair substitutions and single base pair insertions/deletions (indels) are the most common sequence differences found between alleles. Methods have been developed for high-throughput detection of SNPs, but these methods require a priori knowledge of the SNP being assayed or sequence information surrounding the SNP. As more cacao EST sequence data become available, we can use it to screen for SNPs. In addition, SNP markers are completely portable and can be added into the growing international database (CocoaGenDB). Microsatellite allele calls are platform-dependent and there has been no way to efficiently share data among the research groups currently genotyping cacao. Once SNPs have been identified, they can be employed in a genetic assay that does not require electrophoresis or a dedicated molecular genetics facility staffed with highly trained technicians. Because breeding trials are established in cacao producing countries where such molecular genetics facilities do not exist, it is imperative to develop high throughput assays that can be performed and analyzed in the field to be able to use the molecular data for Marker Assisted Selection (MAS). Continue with existing field trials in Costa Rica, Ecuador, Brazil, and Ghana assisted by MAS to validate putative resistance to FP, BP, WB, Ceratocystis, CSSV and VSD. Establish new field trials in Cameroon, Ghana, Ivory Coast and Nigeria. Preventative breeding for Frosty Pod (FP) and Witches Broom (WB) in West Africa and South Asia. Using the markers flanking the Quantitative Trait Loci (QTL) for WB resistance on LG 1 and LG 9, selection of seedlings can be made from within families with 'SCA6' or 'SCA12' as a parent, that contain the genes conferring resistance to WB.
3. Progress Report:
The long-term objective of this project is to genetically improve Theobroma cacao L. using a Marker Assisted Selection (MAS) approach. Project objectives that were achieved included the saturation of current linkage maps with Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) markers, also the development and testing of SNP assays that were used in field breeding programs to determine off-types within clonal cacao populations. Several foreign collaborating scientists from Africa, Asia, South and Central America were trained in molecular marker technology at the USDA-ARS facilities in Miami, FL. In addition, new mapping populations of cacao were developed in Costa Rica, Ecuador, Brazil, Papa New Guinea, and Ghana to identify additional QTL for resistance to BP, WB, FP, incompatibility, productivity and quality traits. Also using marker technology, QTLs for WB and FP resistance from Central and South American germplasm were moved into West African and South Asian breeding populations. Furthermore, association mapping techniques were also used to identify new QTL from non-structured populations from cacao populations in Hawaii. Moreover, the complete assembled and annotated genome of the cacao cultivar 'Matina 1-6' Ver 0.9 was released on September 15, 2010 and the updated version Ver 1.1 has been completed. A cacao genome database (http://www.cacaogenomedb.org/) has been developed and all the sequence information is currently available to the cacao scientific community. Finally, breeding populations were established and evaluated, and MAS projects and field trials were conducted in Costa Rica, Ecuador, Brazil, Ghana, Cameroon, Nigeria, Cote d'Ivoire, and PNG and several superior varieties with disease resistance and quality attributes required by the confectionary industry were released and are currently being planted in cacao producing countries in Africa, Asia, South and Central America.
4. Accomplishments
1. The MAS breeding program continues to move forward. Collection of phenotypic and molecular data continued for all the breeding projects. Twenty six new selections developed in Ecuador with resistance to WB and FP were moved to the quarantine facility in Miami. After release from quarantine these selections will be distributed to breeding programs in West Africa, East Asia and Central and South America for use as parents and testing as clones. The complete genome of the clone 'Matina 1-6' was assembled, annotated and released in a user friendly database. A 6,000 SNP Illumina chip was designed and used on over 1000 genotypes. Three fully saturated linkage maps were produced using the SNP and SSR markers and these were used to complement the genome assembly and to refine the QTL areas for FP, WB and VSD resistance.

This weekend I had fun with all the animals and friends who showed up at Drew's 2nd Birthday!
The inspiration all started with Drew and his love for giraffes. "Giraffe" could almost be considered Drew's first word after MaMa and DaDa, so Drew's parents knew they wanted a giraffe motif, but they didn't want anything too cheesy. Hence the modern and fun Pingg Evite we designed. We knew the invitation design would show up again at the party but we had no idea how much fun we would have doing it. After being further inspired by the Candyland Birthday posted on the Hostess with the Mostess Blog, I think we created a perfect setting for all to get lost in the fun.
Guests were immediately greeted by balloons and the oh-so amazing balloon arch—could there be anything better? Well, maybe the hanging dots (originally done for Alyssa's Dora Birthday) that hung from the tents. This time we added pictures of the birthday boy and the giraffe illustration. The balloons and dots proved to be perfect backdrops for all the party pictures.
And let's not forget the fun candy centerpieces. (See DIY instructions here.) Completely edible, guests dug right into the lollipops, Mike and Ikes and cotton candy.
And then there were cupcakes. They were decked out with cupcake toppers with Drew's picture and original giraffe illustration. And of course we had stuffed animals spread around everywhere. Yes the details were all there.
Lastly, entertainment. This place couldn't have been more fun for the kids. A bounce house, train, slide and animal puppet show rounded out the different kid zones we had set up. Even the adults got into it—elephant or zibra mask anyone? So much fun.
I invite you to see a slide show of some of the pictures here.

Tommy Aquino and the Philosopher's Wine
Ain't no doubting this Thomas.
"Sorrow can be alleviated by good sleep, a bath, and a glass of wine."
That's a real quote from St. Thomas Aquinas, sounding less like a titan of medieval scholasticism and theology and more like a fun-loving Italian bon vivant. We're sure he would approve of the 2009 Aquinas Philosopher's Blend in the sorrow-alleviation department. As artful as his justifications of faith and as robust as the pen that produced over a hundred works, this reserve red has inspired us to re-translate some of the great man's works to tease out their wine-tinted nuances. Behold:
"A man has free choice so long as he rationally chooses great wines at great prices."
"Faith has to do with things that are not seen. Hope has to do with things that are not at hand. But when it comes to wine, give me something I can taste, know what I'm saying?"
"Love takes up where knowledge leaves off, especially after a few glasses of wine with the right person."
"Wonder is the desire for knowledge. Or wine. Either way."

Problem with a 1st order IV ODE (nonlinear)
I am using Mathematica 7.0 on a Win2K platform and noticed that when I
execute the following:
k = 0.01;
sol = DSolve[{h'[t] == 1/(h[t] (2 R - h[t])) - k, h[0] == 0}, h[t], t]
// FullSimplify
I get two possible solutions:
{{h[t] -> -0.005 t - 0.005 Sqrt[t (4000. + t)]}, {h[t] -> -0.005 t +
0.005 Sqrt[t (4000. + t)]}}
which, I believe are correct. However, if I try to get an analytical
solution in terms of R and k,
Clear[R, k]
sol = DSolve[{h'[t] == 1/(h[t] (2 R - h[t])) - k, h[0] == 0}, h[t], t]
// FullSimplify
I get the following two output messages:
Solve::tdep: The equations appear to involve the variables to be solved
for in an essentially non-algebraic way.
DSolve::bvnul: For some branches of the general solution, the given
boundary conditions lead to an empty solution.
Note, that R > 0, and k >= 0..
Is there anyway that I can get an analytical solution to this problem
for these conditions?

The kinetics and mechanism of cure of an amino-glycidyl epoxy resin by a co-anhydride as studied by FT-Raman spectroscopy
Rocks, Jens, Rintoul, Llew, Vohwinkel, Frederich, & George, Graeme A. (2004) The kinetics and mechanism of cure of an amino-glycidyl epoxy resin by a co-anhydride as studied by FT-Raman spectroscopy. Polymer, 45(20), pp. 6799-6811.
|PDF (424kB)
The thermal curing behaviour of tetraglycidyl-4,4'-diaminodiphenylmethane (TGDDM) and a co-anhydride mixture consisting of maleic anhydride (MA) and hexahydrophthalic anhydride (HHPA) was studied from 55oC to 100oC by real-time FT-Raman spectroscopy. The quantitative changes in concentrations of anhydride, epoxy, and new-formed ester were measured and empirical reaction rate curves were constructed reflecting the kinetics of the curing process. After an induction period a simple kinetic scheme that is first order in both epoxy and anhydride monomer consumption described the reaction profile until the reaction was influenced by chemo-rheological changes due to vitrification transition.
FT-Raman analysis revealed that curing propagation mainly occurs by polyesterification between epoxide and anhydride. Possible side reactions including the homopolymerization of MA are considered. The main side reaction is decarboxylation of MA that may produce some autocatalysis, but this is a minor contribution to the kinetics of cure. No conclusive evidence has been found for homopolymerization of MA or initiation of the curing reaction by the reaction product of TGDDM and MA, compared to the polyesterification.

Sunday Week
by Dinah Johnson
No current Talk conversations about this book.
I also read this to an entire class, They didn't seem to interested in it. I probably wouldn't use this in a classroom again.
This was a fun book, though it certainly had a strong slant towards a religious culture. If that bothers you, this book might not be right for you though. It didn't bother me. Dinah Johnson has a strong grasp of literary devices and her strength is truly in her vivid descriptions.
Sunday week is bout a little girl who reacal all the things that happen in the week until Sunday. It was a very cute book. The artwork was create and very beautiful.

OYB February 23
Julie FerwerdaJulie Ferwerda's Blog
- 2009 Feb 22
14:5-6 Then the priest shall order that one of the birds be killed over [running] water in a clay pot. He is then to take the live bird and dip it, together with the cedar wood, the scarlet yarn and the hyssop, into the blood of the bird that was killed over the [running] water. I noticed something really cool in this passage today. Let's plug in some values for a picture. First, I inserted "running" water because that was the literal translation. Running water is usually associated with "living water" (as opposed to stagnant water). Clay pot, a breakable, temporary vessel.
So we see the bird (maybe associated with Jesus as a "heavenly being," sacrificed over "living water in a temporary vessel." The cedar wood could stand for the cross (I researched and many think the cross was cedar), the scarlet (yarn is used here, linen in other places, and in literal translation, there is no other word besides "scarlet.") could either stand for our sin (like the scarlet yarn tied to the scapegoat), or the blood of Jesus' sacrifice to cover our sins. And the hyssop is always a symbol for cleansing, and was used in the Feasts of Tabernacles celebration (God dwells with us). It fits with one person's description I read of associating sin with leprosy as a external example of what sin does to our spiritual lives.
Also, even though hyssop was used mainly for leprosy, King David said, "Cleanse me with hyssop, and I will be clean; wash me, and I will be whiter than snow (Ps. 51:7)." By his own words, he was admitting that he was as bad on the inside as a leper. So as we see, rich with meaning!
6:30-31 The apostles returned to Jesus from their ministry tour and told him all they had done and taught. Then Jesus said, "Let's go off by ourselves to a quiet place and rest awhile." This is an important principle for ministry. After ministering to people in any major capacity, Jesus calls us away for a time of rest and refreshment, alone with Him. For me, I notice a big "let down" period after ministering, and it is wonderful to have the permission to rest awhile in Him-a few hours, a day, whatever the occasion requires.
6:34 Jesus saw the huge crowd as he stepped from the boat, and he had compassion on them because they were like sheep without a shepherd. This was the primary reason for Jesus' ministry on earth. The Old Testament is full of prophecy of Israel being given a Shepherd who will come and take care of them. Check out Ezekiel 34:12 "As a shepherd looks after his scattered flock when he is with them, so will I look after my sheep. I will rescue them from all the places where they were scattered on a day of clouds and darkness."
40:6-8 You take no delight in sacrifices or offerings. Now that you have made me listen, I finally understand—you don't require burnt offerings or sin offerings. Then I said, "Look, I have come. As is written about me in the Scriptures: I take joy in doing your will, my God, for your instructions are written on my heart." David understood grace, and it appears the second half of this is a Messianic prophecy.
Questions for reflection:
Does it surprise you that David understood grace, and that animal sacrifices weren't what saved him?
How do you think he knew this?
Did you notice that David hinted at the New Covenant in his Messianic prophecy? Later in the year, we will find out what special place David plays in the future kingdom...


text: On April 27, at 6:35 p.m., the Lakeland Police Department responded to 842 North Brunnell Parkway in reference to a shooting. The victim, Mark Rhodes, 16, was walking southbound on the sidewalk in the 800 block of Brunnell Parkway when a vehicle drove by heading northbound and fired several shots at the victim. Rhodes could not identify anyone in the vehicle which is described as a small silver sedan. A nearby witness observed a subject hanging out the rear passenger window with a gun pointing in his direction. Rhodes realized he had been shot once in the chest at which time he ran to a nearby family members house who transported him to the hospital. Rhodes condition is unknown at this time. It is unknown if this was a gang related shooting at this time. Anyone with additional information can call 863.834.6900.

Rumor: Windows 8 due August 2012; Win9 in 2014
A new rumor making its way through the Internet's tubes suggests that we might actually see a commercial release for Windows 8, Microsoft's next operating system (OS), as early as next August. What's even more surprising is that Microsoft is said to have a Windows 9 release for late 2014.
The rumor comes to us in the form of a leaked roadmap available through the minimalist tech blog "MS Nerd." The roadmap reveals Microsoft's tentative plans for future releases and, as usual, the greatest interest has been drawn to the company's popular operating systems.
The roadmap shows a Windows 8 beta arriving in time for the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in January, with a final release set for August 2012. A Windows 8 Release Candidate (RC), generally considered the last pre-release version of an OS, should be available sometime between next January and late summer 2012. (Source: msnerd.com)
Report: WinStore Beta Also Available This Year
According to the rumors, Windows 8 won't be the only major Microsoft release next year. It also shows a January release date for the WinStore Beta, an online marketplace purportedly designed to allow Microsoft to compete with Apple's extremely popular online application outlet, iTunes.
Next year will also reportedly see major releases of developer tools for both Microsoft's Xbox 360 peripheral, Kinect, and Windows Phone.
Windows 9 Launch Date: 2014?
As for Windows 9, the roadmap shows it receiving a major developer preview at the BUILD conference in 2013 with a beta to follow in time for the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in January 2014.
If the report is to be true, we should have a Windows 9 Release Candidate by the middle of the year in 2014 and a commercial release in the fall. (Source: tomshardware.com) Other major releases that year, according to the roadmap hint at Internet Explorer 12 and Windows 9 Mobile.
It's worth noting that Microsoft has not yet commented on the roadmap or the plethora of rumors surrounding it. Given the widespread critical and commercial success of Windows 7, it seems unlikely Microsoft would attempt to phase the OS out within two years' time.
That said, it's definitely worth taking all of this information with a grain of salt.

How will the industry redefine itself?Posted by brosenberg on September 8, 2009
Looking back, it was one year ago that our sense of financial security was shocked in the same way September 2001 shook our confidence in our national security. In September 2008 we were already experiencing a housing meltdown and a less-than-robust economy when . . . zap! The free fall of '08 hit. Lehman Brothers tanked, AIG needed $85 million, Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae crashed, the auto industry and bank bailout plans were being rushed and massive amounts of Wall Street wealth disappeared with the nightly news.
We hoped most of that would be behind us by now. Unfortunately, a year later, despite a $700 billion TARP, a $1 trillion TALF, a $787 billion Stimulus Plan, $2.88 billion Cash for Clunkers among others, we're still mired in the financial debris of rising unemployment, bank failures and bankruptcies.
But these are exciting times, too. We're entering a period when we'll redefine our industry and our position in the American life style. As we rebuild our economy, likely slowly and deliberately, we'll have the opportunity to reset our marine businesses for future success. It's predicted we'll face a "new" America and, in fact, it's already emerging. The free-spending, easy credit, caution-to-the-wind mind-sets of pre-2008 are gone. A leaner, meaner, frugal, tight-fisted generation is at hand and predicted to be with us for a long time.
For example, we're suddenly saving in a big way. The savings rate has jumped from 2.6 percent a year ago to 4.2 percent and some economists expect a 6 percent rate soon. This is in spite of the fact that millions of people who've lost jobs or seen pay cuts are hard pressed to save anything. So, it's obvious the majority still has disposable income but simply isn't spending like they used to. They're reducing excess, moving back toward basics, accepting the idea of living within their means and finding out life can still be satisfying.
Good business textbooks tell us there is no better time to reset and retool than during a recession. It's the ideal opportunity to find things that don't work or don't sell and throw them out. Then, create and replace them with new ways to succeed. Sadly, our human nature reportedly prevents us from making major changes when things are go well. We get hung up with the old "if-it-ain't-broke" thinking and we also fail to see the challenges or opportunities ahead.
So how will we redefine our industry? More specifically, how will dealerships be redefined? Sure, fewer manufacturers and dealers – that's a given. But will the industry boil down to a few major production brands with all others more or less custom? Will the number of models be reduced? Will the race to build larger and larger models end? Will any manufacturers build affordable entry level boats to appeal to the new frugal spenders? Will dealers inventory more or less . . . small boats, large boats? Will single brand dealerships be more common? Will manufacturers go to just-in-time production – could they even survive doing so? Will builders sell direct? Will model years finally disappear? Will dealer agreements look more like franchise agreements? Will dealer territories be enlarged, clearly defined and guaranteed? Will consignment inventories become necessary? Will new credit sources and dealer floorplan programs emerge?
Fascinating questions, all. And now's the right time to explore ideas and answers.
