Problematic Teaching from NCFIC Hip Hop Panelists
I just had my attention brought to problematic teachings made by members of the NCFIC panel I blogged about last week. Dan Horn has suggested that, in the antebellum period, slaves "were treated as part of a family." He says so in this video. (UPDATE: link fixed.) This is highly problematic in historical terms. Many slaves were [Read More…]
Can Modern Christians Learn Theology from Slaveowners?
This is the toughest–and most hotly debated–question among modern evangelicals interested in some level in Christian history today. Should we read the works of men who held slaves? Can we profit from them? I come to this issue with my own perspective and background, those which God gave me. It was helpful for me to [Read More…]

Hanselminutes on 9 - Eilon Lipton and the ASP.NET MVC Rumors
Download this episode
In this episode of Hanselminutes on 9, I break into Eilon Lipton's office and demand the real scoop on who or what wrote ASP.NET MVC. The word on the street is that ScottGu wrote the original prototype, codenamed "Scalene" on an airplane. Is this true? I pretend to turn off my camera and fool Eilon, the lead developer on ASP.NET MVC, to give up the goods.

Google Docs: Refreshed Documents list now rolling out
January 31st, 2011 | Published in Google Apps, Google Docs
A refreshed documents list is currently being rolled out making it more useful to find, explore and share items. Here are some of the changes:
- New filters in 'More options' making it easier to narrow your search by type, visibility state and other criteria.
- A new preview panel on the right side of the document list showing a preview thumbnail, sharing settings and more. If the file is a video, you can start playing it directly from the preview panel or from the recently announced video player.
- To make it easier to view photos, you can now click on the magnifying glass on a photo to open a full screen slide-show viewer.
- A new view called 'Home'. The contents of the 'Home' view are controlled by you so that the content you access the most often is easier to get to. You can remove files from the 'Home' view by right clicking the file and selecting 'Don't show in home' to hide them. And when you need them, these files can always be found later by selecting 'All items' or using search.
- 'Folders' have been replaced by 'Collections' in the navigation bar. Collections are designed to combine the best features of labels and folders. A file can live in multiple collections, just like with Gmail labels. Collections can also be stored hierarchically, just like folders on your desktop. And of course, collections can be shared, just like you can share docs.
- Instead of checkboxes to select multiple files, you can now use your 'Shift' or 'Control' (Cmd on Macs) keys.
Editions included:
Google Apps, Google Apps for Business, Government and Education
Languages included:
All languages supported by Google Docs
How to access what's new:
The new documents list is being rolled out over the next few days to domains whose administrator has enabled 'pre-release features' in the administrator control panel under 'Domain Settings'. It will be rolled out to all remaining domains shortly.

The Great Artiste was the US Army Air Corps Silverplate B-29 bomber which escorted the B-29 Enola Gay that dropped the atomic bomb on Hiroshima on August 6, 1945. For the Hiroshima bombing mission, the Great Artiste carried the instrumentation that measured atomic bomb blast and the redioactivity levels. Prior to the August 6 mission, it had been assigned to the 393rd Bomb Squadron, 509th Composite Group, that participated in the atomic bomb attacks on both Hiroshima and Nagasaki. In Hiroshima mission, it was flown by Major Charles W. Sweeney.
The Great Artiste was built at the Glenn L. Martin Aircraft Plant at Omaha, Nebraska, (B-29-40-MO 44-27353, victor number 89), and was delivered to the Army Air Corps on April 20, 1945, and flown by crew C-15 to Wendover Army Air Field, Utah, in May. It departed Wendover for Tinian on June 22 and arrived on June 28. Originally, the Great Artiste had been assigned the victor number 9 but on August 1 was given the circle R tail markings of the 6th Bomb Group as a security measure and had its victor changed to 89 to avoid misidentification with actual 6th BG aircraft. It had its nose art painted after the Nagasaki mission, and the name purportedly referred to undisclosed talents of the bombardier, Capt. Beahan.
On the mission to bomb Nagasaki on August 9, 1945, it was to have been the aircraft carrying the bomb, but the mission schedule had been moved forward two days because of weather considerations and the instrumentation had not yet been removed from the aircraft. To avoid delaying the mission, Sweeney traded airplanes with the crew of Bockscar to carry the Fat Man atomic bomb to Nagasaki. The crew of Captain Frederick C. Bock flew The Great Artiste to Nagasaki on its instrument support mission, and landed with it on Okinawa at the conclusion of the mission.

Increasing community awareness of social issues facing residents of Indiana County has been the goal of the Center for Community Growth during its "A New Economy" film series.
"We are a small organization focused on addressing issues of social, economic, racial and environmental justice," said Eric Barker, a center member who has helped to coordinate the six-month series.
The series, held at the Indiana Theater on Philadelphia Street, gives the community the chance to discuss the issues they're passionate about.
"We have been at the theater basically having a documentary on an issue with a panel discussion and a Q-and-A," Barker said. Friday marks the last of the six-month series that's been held on the last Friday of every month. Previously, the series has featured:
• "Triple Divide," which, according to the film's website, attempts to explain "how are state regulations and industry handling impacts from fracking."
• "YERT," a documentary that Barker said is all about sustainability and recycling.
"At that film we had a recycling petition, we had over 300 people sign it and we were promoting single stream curbside recycling here in Indiana Borough," he said. Because of the high interest regarding the issue, the center presented that petition to Indiana Borough Council.
• "Urban Roots," according to the Internet Movie Database, is a documentary that tells the story of the emergence of urban farming in Detroit, which was a part of the series in May.
• "8: The Mormon Proposition," which Barker called "timely, because the film is about how the Mormon church was putting all of this money into this anti-gay marriage campaign."
It was good timing, he said, because the week the film was shown, the Supreme Court stood in support of gay marriage.
"We had a panel of local LGBT leaders that were talking about their experiences and how they got involved with the movement here in Indiana County."
The last film in the series, "Capitalism, A Love Story," will be presented at 7:30 p.m. Friday in the theater, and is co-sponsored by the United Mine Workers of America.
It addresses the economic crisis of 2008 and how capitalism and the big banks "caused that calamity," Barker said.
"The film sort of talks about issues of social inequity that exist in American life today."
IMDb describes the film, written and directed by Michael Moore, as "an examination of the social costs of corporate interests pursuing profits at the expense of the public good."
The Center for Community Growth and UMWA have local labor union leaders coming in to serve on the panel and do the Q-and-A. Those present will include Ron Baker, of the Service Employees International Union; Ron Airhart, of the UMWA; Dr. Brandon Vick, a labor economist at Indiana University of Pennsylvania; and sociology professor Dr. Jim Dougherty, moderator of the panel.
The center suggests a $5 donation for entry into the event.
Throughout the series, Barker said the center has been pleased with the turnout, with more than 100 people coming to see the first film in the series, and 40 to 80 people at the films following. In turn, Barker said, this helps the Indiana Theater.
"Sean Howard has been good at managing the theater and trying to revitalize that historic property, and the center has been one of the first main recurring renters of the theater," he said.
The center welcomes members of the community to this event and future events for the sake of getting involved in the local social justice initiative. In addition, Barker said, the center is looking for people to become members.
"If you have a social justice project that you would like to take on, we're happy to bring you in as long as it fits with the mission of our organization," he said. "If you want to sponsor a project, then we'll support you as the Center for Community Growth and handle advertising and promotion."
The center has been involved with other initiatives, including the Indiana Farmers Market and the 2012 Voter Registration Drive.
"We're trying to fill a gap in the community where we can stand up for issues of social, economic, racial and environmental justice," Barker said.

By Editorial Staff
The American Association of Oriental Medicine recently asked the American Acupuncture Council to undertake an initiative to obtain clarifying language from the insurance industry regarding the nature of malpractice coverage for acupuncturists who treat issues related to women's health.
To address this problem, the AAOM and AAC formed an OB/GYN Malpractice Coverage Committee. The committee included a broad range of participants from the profession, including Drew Henderson, LAc, Mark Evens, LAc, Martin Herbkersman, DAc, Claudia Citkovitz, LAc, Raven Lang, LAc (also a midwife), Chris Hughes, LAc, Kevin Ergil, LAc, Will Morris, OMD, LAc, and Michael Schroeder, an AAC representative. The committee started with an AAC policy statement that had existed for many years regarding what procedures were considered to be acupuncture and those considered obstetrics and gynecology.
From this starting point, the committee created and approved a consensus document, comprised in a question-and-answer format to cover these issues. In addition, the committee pioneered a three-tier coverage format so that acupuncturists who practice only acupuncture and do not engage in Western-style gynecology or the delivery of children would pay the lowest rates. Acupuncturists who employ some Western medical gynecology techniques would be considered class 2 providers and would pay additional rates; acupuncturists involved in labor and delivery would be eligible for coverage as a class 3 provider. This new system is believed to constitute the first time that an insurance program has been willing to cover these types of procedures when performed by an acupuncturist.
Dr. Morris, the new president of the AAOM, stated, "The AAOM/AAC Insurance Task Force, with representatives from Colorado, Georgia, South Carolina, California, New York, Oregon, and Florida, achieved consensus rapidly and effectively. This is another example of a successful and unified team approach to solving the concerns of our profession." Gene Bruno, LAc, the immediate past president of the AAOM, added, "It is very exciting that AAC is assisting the first major, positive change in coverage that has occurred in the last 20 years."
Ms. Citkovitz will be the first person actually covered under the new program. As of press time, she is involved in a research program at Lutheran Memorial Hospital in Brooklyn, New York. The program is funded by the National Institutes of Health, and will examine the use of acupuncture on pregnant women undergoing labor.
As of press time, the results of the committees' work are being forwarded to the AAOM Board of Directors and to the entire acupuncture profession for comment. Anyone wishing to comment or testify in person is encouraged to come to the AAOM public meeting to be held at the California State Oriental Medical Association's convention in San Francisco on April 30, 2005. Written comments can be sent to:
American Association of Oriental Medicine ATTN: AAOM/AAC Insurance Task Force PO Box 162340 Sacramento, CA 95816
American Association of Oriental Medicine ATTN: AAOM/AAC Insurance Task Force PO Box 162340 Sacramento, CA 95816
E-mail comments can be sent to rchristensenaaom.org. After all public comments have been considered, a final draft of the questions and answers will be adopted. This language will then be reflected in new policy wording that will benefit the entire profession.
Mr. Schroeder, vice president and general counsel of the AAC, and the council's representative to the committee, observed, "This is an example of what the acupuncture profession is capable of when it works together on a consensus basis. For the acupuncture profession to continue to progress and grow in new areas, insurance coverage has to be available in these areas. I believe that this will be the first of many expansions in the acupuncture practice and coverage."

Las Brisas 1: Comfortable 1 Bedroom Apartment Sleeps 3
Beach apartment with 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom and shared pool in Puerto de Mazarrón, Spain
Booking cost: £0.00
Pay onlybooking deposit
From £238 per week
Apartment to rent in Puerto de Mazarrón, Spain
Apartment overview - owner's description
Ground floor holiday apartment in a gated complex with pool. Includes sun loungers & beach chairs ! 20 meters to the pool.
Our much-loved ground floor apartment has a high standard of furnishings and equipment for a comfortable self-catering holiday.
Our extra-large lounge has a 2 seater sofa and a sofa bed, televisión, DVD player, a portable electric fan, electric wall heaters and a dining area with sliding glass doors leading onto the terrace.
The apartment has 2 sun loungers so you can relax in comfort by the enormous pool and 2 beach chairs to use by the pool or at the beach.
The kitchen has a ceramic hob, extractor, granite worktops, full size oven, large fridge freezer, washing machine, kettle and a toaster.
The bedroom has a double bed, fitted wardrobe, 3 sets of drawers, ceiling fan and wall mounted heaters for out of season holidays.
The bathroom has a bath with an overhead shower attachment and a glazed shower panel.
There is lift access to all levels, including the underground garage and the communal solarium.
The apartment faces out from the complex, (not poolside) so it avoids noise disturbance coming up from the pool. Because the apartment is on a corner, the bedroom, lounge and kitchen all face out from the building. This apartment is one of a superior few at Las Brisas that don't suffer from having rooms with windows facing into a stuffy, dark and dingy central well. Believe me, you'll appreciate the value of this when you arrive !
There is on street parking in front of the apartment or we can reserve you a space in the underground car park.
We provide towels for use in the apartment only.
The apartment receives UK freeview tv channels via satellite but, as with every property in southern Spain, the satellite coverage for UK tv could be terminated at any time.
We can add a travel cot with a fitted mattress cover and a base sheet on request.
Residencial Las Brisas has .....
.... a 25 metre pool with sunbathing terraces, poolside showers, toilets and changing facilities. The pool is maintained for year round use, has a segregated section for children and a lifeguard in high season.
.... a telephone entry system and lift access to all levels, including the pool and a small communal rooftop solarium.
Las Brisas is located .....
.... 10 minutes stroll to the beach and ....
.... 5 minutes stroll to
cafes with wi-fi access
indoor bowling alley, gym and bar
go kart track
Puerto's open-air Sunday market
The nearest free wi-fi access is about 300 metres away, at the Hotel La Cumbre's bar.
To see the location, click on the orange coloured tab labelled 'Location', towards the top of this page.
Puerto de Mazarron .....
The Costa Calida is one of Spain´s best places to holiday, having a gentle warm winter and long hot summer days.
A holiday in Puerto de Mazarron suits couples and families looking for a traditional Spanish seaside holiday with a choice of busy beaches or deserted coves, away from package holiday crowds and with plenty to do both day and night.
Puerto has great diving, snorkelling, sailing, windsurfing and fishing. The beaches and small bays slope gently into crystal clear waters. Beach-side villages and miles of countryside surround the 32 km bay of Mazarron.
The coastal areas of Mazarron and Puerto de Mazarron boast some of the finest beaches in Spain and the untouched nature of the coastline and countryside appeals to those who seek a tranquil environment for their holidays.
Puerto de Mazarron is a popular resort for Spanish families and in the peak season (July and August) the population swells to capacity. At other times of the year it can be very quiet which makes Puerto ideal for that quiet "get away from it all" style holiday.
The area is ideal for walking holidays, with a variety of marked walks to suit all abilities.
Puerto has an attractive new marina, a variety of restaurants, tapas bars, evening entertainment bars, cultural activities including an open air summer cinema, indoor and outdoor sports facilities including ten pin bowling, sports hall, kart track, an uncovered Roman salt factory museum and a Phonecian boat information centre.
Puerto is one of the most important tourist centres for marine and sub-aquatic activities in Spain. The frequency of prevailing winds throughout the year in the Bay of Mazarron means sailing instruction and practice can be undertaken at any time of the year. The clear waters and rich flora and fauna offer the enthusiast some highly interesting dives.
The council regularly provides free beach concerts and has theme beaches with facilities for different ages with a variety of free sports and relaxation facilities - even designated nudist beaches.
In summer, Puerto de Mazarron has a couple of night clubs and two open-air out of town summer clubs which start very late and continue until sunrise.
Out & About .....
Camposol golf course is about 10 minutes by car, with La Manga only 40 minutes away.
Cartagena, a historic city with beautiful architecture, a pedestrianized upmarket shopping area, a variety of museums, newly opened (unearthed) Roman amphitheatre and a large port with a seafront paseo, is 30 minutes away by car.
The ancient city of Murcia is the capital of the region. It is easy to get to by train or road and has a historical centre with a cathedral, casino, churches and lots of interesting architecture, cafes, taps bars and some quality restaurants.
Whilst in the area, a visit to the beautiful Sierra Espuña National Park, to the north of Mazarron, through Totana or Alhama is a must. The drive and views are spectacular. On the journey and in the park there are local Spanish bars and restaurants serving good quality, reasonably priced food, or you can take your own food to cook on the outdoor barbecues in the designated picnic areas. The park has a visitor centre and signposted walks with amazing views.
This apartment has 14 verified reviews.
14 out of 14 people recommend staying here
The accomodation was very good value for money. It suited two people well, and over the two months, we found it suited our needs very well. The complex was also impressive with well maintained facilities such as the pool, it also felt very safe, especially at night. It was in a good location, but would be best suited for people who had access to a car, but if not, you wouldnt have many problems. The town is small and easily accesable and this place would suit anyone who really wants to get away from the city. Although a word of warning, this place has the worst bed ever!!!
We had previouly stayed in the owners Camposol villa, so when they sent us a mailshot for their new apartments in Puerto, we were keen to return to a tried and tested service.
As returning customers, Hazel and Richard certainly went out of their way to welcome us back and gave us a free upgrade to their 2 bedroom apartment, which made us feel appreciated.
It seems that the owners enjoy buying properties with a view, which once again meant we needed a car as these apartmnents are at the top of a hill in Puerto, with the benefit of a much appreciated cooling breeze (Las Brisas is a very apt name).
Once again, the property was superbly equipped, exceeding, in our opinion, the Camposol property.
We didn´t get round to using the pool, so I cannot report on that.
Puerto de Mazarron is a wonderful find, a true bit of Spain, whereas we found Camposol to be a predominantly British urbanisation.
The apartment was top notch, the best we have holidayed in and a million times better than any package tour apartment. I recommend this apartment and the service we received as excellent.
We had a lovely relaxing stay in the flat and came home revitalised. Most of our time was spent lazing on the balcony in the sun, reading (the choice of books supplied was a nice touch), eating, drinking and enjoying the great sea and mountain views.
I definitely recommend the flat for its standard of equipment, presentation and cleanliness.
We enjoyed the apartment being uphill - that´s what gives it the fantastic sea and mountain views, though older people would want a car, if only for going up and down to the nearby shopping centre.
Spacious, well presented apartment in a very well maintained modern complex. Pool was enormous and kept clean and maintained daily though we didn´t venture in. Safe gated complex with keys and entry buzzers.
We appreciated the info pack which saved us time getting orientated at the start of our break.
I have been coming to Spain for my holidays for the last 27 years. This is the first time I have found thet the description of the property I booked has understated its qualities rather that exaggerating them. I will be back next year and recommend Las Brisas as the place to stay in Puerto de Mazarron.
Thanks to the owners for making the apartment a great place to stay.

Team Canada coach Mike Babcock continues to tinker with his line combinations but is sticking with Carey Price in goal.
At practice Tuesday, Chris Kunitz was reunited with Sidney Crosby on a line with Patrice Bergeron. Jamie Benn, who played with Crosby and Bergeron against Finland, was shifted to a unit with the Anaheim Ducks duo of Ryan Getzlaf and Corey Perry.
Patrick Marleau, Jonathan Toews and Jeff Carter remained together. Patrick Sharp and Rick Nash skated with John Tavares while Martin St. Louis and Matt Duchene rotated in and out of lines.
Babcock is keen to settle on his combinations at the Olympic hockey tournament as a quarter-final against either Latvia or Switzerland looms Wednesday.
"We've changed our lines, in my opinion — and I was saying that last Olympics — too much. We're trying to find the right way," said Babcock. "It's time to just let them go.
"We think (Benn-Getzlaf-Perry) is an option for us. We're giving it a run."
The coach said he liked Benn, Crosby and Bergeron last time out but wanted to shift Benn to Getzlaf's line to see if he could transfer some of that success. The three have played together before at the world championships.
"We want to use our size and strength to our advantage out there," said Benn. "We've got to find a way to get to the dirty areas in this next game here and find a way to get some greasy goals."
Babcock said the coaching braintrust mulled over putting Kunitz back with Pittsburgh linemate Crosby. "We could go either way, we debated that. We're not sure but that's what we're doing."
Babcock said he would announce his two scratches on Wednesday after the morning skate.
P.K. Subban and St. Louis sat out Sunday against Finland.
Babcock also declined to say whether Price would remain his No. 1, offering only that he planned to stick to his routine of announcing his goalie the day before the game.
Price got the nod against Norway and Finland, sandwiched around a Roberto Luongo start against Austria.
The Montreal Canadiens starter has given up two goals on 35 shots and shown little sign of exhibiting a pulse despite been under the Olympic microscope.
Asked if it was easy to isolate himself in the Olympic bubble, Price replied: "I live inside a bubble anyway. I don't get into too much about what anybody has to say, really."
Price is used to hoopla, plying his trade under intense spotlight of the Montreal media. NHL or Olympics, his focus is the same.
"Essentially it comes down to the same thing: stopping pucks."
And Price is good at stripping away things that don't matter.
"I've always been really good on focusing things put right in front of me," he said. "It really simplifies your mind and helps you focus if you just focus on one thing and try and do really good at that and not worry about anything else."
Canada won all three games to earn a bye into the quarter-finals. The team has scored 11 goals with six coming from defencemen (four from Drew Doughty and two from Shea Weber).
"We had good chances last game (against Finland) so I can't take that away from our group," said Babcock. "But we feel we could use more second chances being inside more so that's what we spent some time on today."
Canada ranked third in goals during the preliminary round behind the U.S. and Finland (both 15). The Canadians ranked No. 1 in shots on goal with 111.
A bemused Babcock wondered about Canada's lack of power-play opportunities. Canada has had just four, lowest among the 12 teams, with one power-play goal to show for its seven minutes 16 seconds with a man-advantage.
In contrast, Russia and Sweden both had 13 power play opportunities in the preliminary round. Slovenia had 15.
"You almost wonder how come you're spending so much time preparing for them when they never come," said Babcock. "We've talked about that as a coaching staff a number of times.
"But teams are disciplined and the game just is going that way. So it's find a way to score."
Babcock has stuck with his defensive pairings of Duncan Keith and Weber, Marc-Edouard Vlasic and Doughty and Jay Bouwmeester and Alex Pietrangelo.
Tavares took a shot off the foot from Doughty during practice Tuesday. He grimaced but kept going.Report Typo/Error

a place for zinesters - writers and readers
Would anyone out there be interested in having a monthly meeting to get together and work on our zines, talk about what we're working on, share any great new finds like printing ideas, new zines we love, useful zine-making tips, etc.?
Maybe we could even have monthly challenges, like doing a one-page zine on anything, making a tiny zine with one poem, making up an idea for a coloring book zine, then drawing one page for it, etc.
I was hoping we could meet at a zine-friendly place like MCBA or Stevens Square where we could have glue sticks and cut paper and make a mess (which of course we would then clean up), but I don't know anyone here who does zines and I missed the Zinefest at Stevens Square, dangit!
email me personally if you would like, at email@example.com

Product Description
technical comment
Composers who dared to set the poetic works of Victor Hugo knew they had a challenge on their hands! Yet they managed to extract from this monument of literature the texts that would most benefit from their music, and between them created a multiple portrait: here is every facet of the poet, from the ethereal or sensual lover to the committed political figure, contemplating the world in verse of biting irony or Romantic lyricism. The young Konstantin Wolff has audibly taken great pleasure in tackling these subtly nuanced evocations.

On April 18, 2012, Frédéric Boyer announced at the Tribeca Film Festival opening media breakfast for his inaugural year as Artistic Director, that he wanted to have more "World Premières" as he did when he was heading the Directors' Fortnight program at the Cannes Film Festival. In 2013, he has succeeded triumphantly with the MoMA PS1 collaboration for Michelangelo Frammartino's Alberi and other innovative approaches to cinema, like Paul Verhoeven's latest film Tricked (Steekspel), which was presented in the Tribeca Talks After the Movie series. I asked Verhoeven at the North American premiere about the birth of his Dada Dial M For Murder moment and got an answer that revealed the process of the unprecedented script collaboration. Eric Steel's devastatingly luminescent Kiss The Water also had its world premiere at this year's festival. The documentary about a Scottish fishing fly-maker transforms itself »

Paul Verhoeven is finally feeling like an artist with a purpose and point of view again. It took a dozen years, two films and tens of thousands of citizen screenwriters, but here he is in New York City, smiling while discussing his work. The Dutch director, now 73 years old, is best known for his violent, semi-campy sci-fi classics Robocop and Total Recall, movies made in the late 1980's when it was okay for genre films to have a certain sense of self-awareness. He's now behind a new kind of experiment in cognizant storytelling, the crowdsourced movie Tricked, which is premiering at the Tribeca Film Festival.

Sam Claflin considered Odair operation
Sam Claflin thought he should look more like Brad Pitt, Zac Efron, Dwayne Johnson and Channing Tatum for his Hunger Games role.
The British actor landed the role of Finnick Odair in the popular franchise, but faced a vicious backlash from dedicated fans who disagreed with the casting. In a bid to win people over, Sam thought the best course of action would be to go under the knife to make him look like a mix of Hollywood's hottest stars.
"I couldn't help but come across comments of my casting. They were just everywhere, I started the process thinking I was going to have to have serious surgery to make everyone happy," Sam admitted to the British edition on Glamour magazine.
"With a young Brad Pitt's face, Zac Efron's abs, Dwayne Johnson's pecs, and Channing Tatum's left calf!"
Sam, whose film credits include Snow White and the Huntsman and The Quiet Ones, soon brushed the nasty remarks off though. He had complete faith that the producers of the movies, which are based on the popular novels by Suzanne Collins, knew what they were doing.
"But it's impossible to please everyone," he added. "I trusted the team that brought you Jennifer Lawrence as Katniss. They had their reasons for picking me and I worked my butt off to prove to any doubters that I was the man for the job."
Sam, 27, shows off his toned torso in the Hunger Games movies, but in real life prefers to cover up in what he calls goth style.
"As you can see, I'm much more of a black, navy or a grey type of guy," Sam previously told the UK's GQ magazine when they quizzed him on his opinion of red trousers.
"I dress quite 'goth-like', so bright colours don't really ring true for me. But you know, some people need to express themselves in different ways which is totally understandable."

Chocolate-Almond Spirals
- Yield: Makes 30
- 1 1/4 cups (2 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
- 1 1/2 cups sugar
- 2 large eggs, plus one large egg white
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup milk
- 4 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
- 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- Almond Dough
With an electric mixer on medium-high speed, cream butter and sugar until pale and fluffy. Beat in whole eggs and salt. Add vanilla, milk, flour, and cocoa; mix until incorporated.
Turn out dough onto a piece of plastic wrap, and shape into a rectangle; wrap. Chill until firm, at least 1 hour, or up to 1 day.
On a generously floured 12-by-26-inch sheet of parchment paper, roll out chocolate dough to an 11-by-24-inch rectangle, dusting with flour as needed and occasionally lifting dough with an offset spatula to prevent sticking. Chill again.
On another generously floured piece of parchment, roll out almond dough to a 9 1/2-by-24-inch rectangle, as described above.
Lightly beat egg white; brush over chocolate dough. Gently stack almond dough on top, aligning flush on one long side (there will be a 1 1/2-inch space on the other long side). Cut stack crosswise into thirds to make three 8-by-11-inch rectangles. Starting with the short side where the edges are flush, roll doughs together into a log, gently lifting parchment as you go. Lightly brush edge with egg white; seal seam by pinching and pressing gently. Wrap log in parchment or waxed paper. Repeat with remaining two stacked rectangles. Chill in freezer until firm, about 1 1/2 hours, or up to 1 month.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line baking sheets with parchment paper. Let dough stand at room temperature 10 minutes. Using a serrated knife, cut log into 1/4-inch-thick rounds, rotating log after each cut to keep it round. Transfer rounds to sheets. Bake until set but not taking on any color, 18 to 20 minutes. Transfer cookies (still on parchment) to wire racks to cool completely. Cookies can be stored up to 5 days at room temperature in airtight containers.

It's not often that England's Professional Game Match Board, the organization that allocates referees for games, hands out suspensions, which means that when it does, the performance of the referee in question must have been pretty awful, indeed. For his awful performance in the Merseyside derby on Saturday -- awful to anyone who doesn't support Liverpool, that is - Mark Clattenburg was left out of the PGMB's referee lineup this weekend.
Clattenburg was guilty of three poor decisions which cost Everton a match they should have at least walked away from with a point, including
a sending-off/penalty-kick to Liverpool for a foul that came outside the box, an elbow for which Liverpool's Dirk Kuyt could have easily been ejected, and a missed penalty for a clear foul on
Everton's Joleon Lescott in the last minute of the game. Understandably, Everton manager David Moyes was irate following the 2-1 home defeat and the double-sending off of Tony Hibbert and Phil
Neville. Clattenburg's next match is Thursday's UEFA clash between Lokomotiv Moscow and Atletico Madrid in Moscow.

CARLTON superstar Chris Judd says the pursuit of the Blues' 17th premiership is now the only thing that motivates him.
And he believes the door hasn't closed on Carlton achieving something this year.
Judd, a dual Brownlow medallist, five-time best-and-fairest winner, Norm Smith medallist, West Coast premiership player and six-time All-Australian, has won everything he can in the game.
In the lead-up to his 250th game against Hawthorn, he declared a second flag at his second club was his single driving force.
"There wouldn't be any reason for me to play if it wasn't for that. We're still a fair way off the top four teams and we know that,'' Judd told the Herald Sun.
My Turf: Blues ruckman Kreuzing down the highway
"But I played against Sydney in 2005 for West Coast in Round 6 when we beat them by 45 points and that's when (Andrew) Demetriou came out and said they were boring.
"Fast forward 16 weeks and they've won a premiership, but after we beat them I remember thinking: 'These blokes are no good'.
"Strange things can happen in footy. I don't think we're without a chance of having some success, but at the same time you have to recognise there's a lot of work to be done before we can legitimately talk about any of that.''
Nearly six years after returning to Melbourne, Judd said he was "rapt'' he chose Carlton, but admitted he thought the Blues had underachieved in his time at the club.
"I probably would have thought that (that Carlton would have pushed a bit higher), but that was just because of my experience coming from a club where we played finals every year,'' he said.
"I guess that's just what I expected a bit. If I'd come from a club who hadn't played finals in six years I'd maybe feel we (Carlton) had almost over-achieved.
"It would have been nice if we had got a bit closer to the ultimate success, but the fact is we haven't and we get on with it.''
Judd last month signed a one-year contract extension tying him to the Blues until the end of 2014.
While the 29-year-old admitted he was thinking more and more about life after football, he wouldn't make any declarations beyond next season.
"I just don't know, it depends on a lot of things,'' Judd said.
"I just want to appreciate what's happening now and what's happening now is we've got a youngish team that keeps improving. We've got a new coach and I think it's a pretty exciting time for our club so I'm not wishing away the present.
"I'm conscious of trying to be excited over what comes next without wishing away the last part of my career because things at Carlton are going pretty well.
"It's a good group of blokes there and it would be great if we were able to achieve something in the time I'm still around.''

The Five Downplays Childhood Obesity Epidemic
Blog ››› ››› ZACHARY PLEAT
Earlier this week, Fox News continued its transition from Glenn Beck with The Five, a show that debuted with a litany of sexist stereotypes. On Tuesday, the show gave co-host Greg Gutfeld a platform to dismiss concerns that childhood obesity was an epidemic and to instead compare it to bad breath.
After discussing Michelle Obama's recent trip to the Shake Shack, Gutfeld called the First Lady "our nation's anti-obesity leader," and went on to dismiss the widespread problem of childhood obesity:
But health experts agree that childhood obesity is a severe health crisis in America. A 2007 working group report by the National Institutes of Health stated that childhood obesity had "reached epidemic proportions" in America; according to the Centers for Disease Control, "childhood obesity has more than tripled in the past 30 years." The CDC also outlined how dangerous obesity is to the health of children, both immediately and continuing into their adulthood:
- Obese youth are more likely to have risk factors for cardiovascular disease, such as high cholesterol or high blood pressure. In a population-based sample of 5- to 17-year-olds, 70% of obese youth had at least one risk factor for cardiovascular disease.5
- Children and adolescents who are obese are at greater risk for bone and joint problems, sleep apnea, and social and psychological problems such as stigmatization and poor self-esteem.3,6
- Obese youth are more likely than youth of normal weight to become overweight or obese adults, and therefore more at risk for associated adult health problems, including heart disease, type 2 diabetes, stroke, several types of cancer, and osteoarthritis.6

text: by Kylie Canales Sep 20, 2011 Comments (2) AIChE Topics: Professional Development Students Share This Post: Fluids, heat transfer, thermodynamics, kinetics--the list of things that I learned in school goes on and on, and I am grateful for all of that knowledge. It makes me the stellar employee that I am today, but there are a few things that I have learned in the real world that I really wish they would have clued me in on before releasing me out into the world. Theory Doesn't Always Work The joke in our department was always that chemical engineers are the best guessers in the world; at least I thought it was a joke until I started working for a polyurethane manufacturer. Based on the process, and the way things work in textbooks, if I wanted foam with certain properties, I just adjusted the amounts and types of chemicals used in order to produce perfect foam that cured in x amount of hours and was off to the customer in perfect condition. I couldn't have been more wrong. What ends up happening is you set up the process to the last successful attempt that you had, from there, it is guess and check based on how you think the foam looks. It is entirely subjective. So why did I spend thousands of dollars learning theoretical equations that got thrown out on day one? It gives you a good baseline to guess from, in theory at least. The joys of entering a process that already exists is that someone else already did all of the theoretical work for you, you get to guess and check to try to improve on the process that is already in existence. Quality Is Subjective I took a course in plant management that taught us how to calculate tolerances and how to identify defects, etc. What this course kindly forgot to mention to me was that a ton of money can be saved just by asking the customer what they are using the product for. A customer gives you specs for what they want the product to be like, but in reality, they might not need tolerances to be as tight as you are making them. My advice is that if you are having high scrap and reworking costs on a product, take five or six parts that may or may not be defects and ask the person working quality on the line their opinion, then take those parts to the customer and ask their opinion. Often the customer will see fewer defects than the person working quality on the line. The number-one best way to establish quality standards on a part for a specific customer is to completely understand what that customer is looking for and deliver that to the customer. The Engineer Is NOT Always Right On paper, maybe the engineer is always right, but there is no mathematical constant to throw into an equation to take into account the unwillingness of employees to implement a new process. Lean manufacturing is a really hot issue right now, and looking at it from an engineering perspective, it really makes sense. There is one crucial step in lean manufacturing that no one ever teaches you. The greatest secret in any manufacturing facility is to talk to the people on the line. Understand what they are doing and what parts of the process they feel needs improvement. If the people who are actually working the line do not see need for improvement, or do not understand why you are making changes, they have the ability to make implementation of a new process very difficult. People do not fit nicely into equations, so it is always best to have a good relationship with the people who work for you. There is so much more to being an engineer in the real world than simply numbers and design. Soft skills are something that school just can't teach you, but they are crucial in the real world. What's the biggest lesson you learned in the working world?

Safety Culture 2. Respect line workers. They know a lot because they live with the process every day. They have lots of good ideas. Help them to improve things but don't come in as a know it all - it will turn them off. 3. Manufacturing theory for non chemical operations. 4. Looking at the whole process, not just your piece of it, is very important and helpful. 5. Box-Hunter designed experiments were very helpful but not taught in school. 6. Go to your boss with solutions, not problems. 7. People appreciate it if you can organize data and present it in helpful ways. We are drowning in data but there is little real information gleaned from it. 8. It's not what you earn, it's what you keep (after taxes, cost of living, etc.) There's probably others I've missed but those come to mind right now.... kccanales (not verified) Sep 21, 2011 Your boss doesn't pay you to create more problems for him, rather, he employs you to create solutions for him.

I'm attempting to knit a sweater that has a multi-colored train along the bottom.
The pattern is here: http://www.freepatterns.com/list.html?criteria=engine&x=0&y=0
but you have to download it to see it. (It's the Engine #9 pullover)
My first attempt went very badly.
I was trying to carry ALL the colors across the work, back and forth because so many of the colors repeat in the different cars of the train.The back of the abandoned sweater was a jumbled mess.
So I've figured out that I need to make bobbins for each car of the train. That would be the easiest way, right?
And then I'd just have to carry the MC along, back and forth?
Is that right or is there an easier way I haven't seen?
Thank you!
It looks like intarsia so yes you do have a bobbin, butterfly or long tail of yarn for each color as it occurs across the work. I haven't done it, but someone who has may have hints. We do have a video of simple intarsia listed under advanced techniques.
With intarsia you don't carry the colors but work with the background color up to a train car and then drop it and start with the car color, on the other side of the car use a different ball of background color and work to the next car and have a ball of that color to work with, dropping and adding new colors as needed. When you work back you pick up and drop colors as needed. Watch the video.
I was doing a motif once that I thought I could strand the yarn across sections of my intarsia. I was not happy with the result. I should have struck to intarsia the whole way. For your train you would use a separate ball for each car and the backgound sections between. You could do the black with intarsia as well or go back and do it with duplicate stitch afterward. For the bigger sections of black I think I'd have my intarsia going and for little things like the "9" on the red car, I think I would opt to add it in later with duplicate stitch.
It isn't that hard once you get it sorted out and understand about how to "twist" the colors at the changes so you don't get holes. Oh, I might add that you will have gaps where you change colors at first but you fix those with the tails when you're done and it looks good.
Thank you both!

Israeli university cancels planned Wagner concert
By Allyn Fisher-Ilan
JERUSALEM (Reuters) - An Israeli university has cancelled plans to hold a concert featuring Richard Wagner's music after Holocaust survivors complained the performance would cause them "emotional torture".
Israeli ensembles rarely play Wagner, citing the 19th century German composer's anti-Semitism and Hitler's affinity for his work. Sporadic performances of his works in the Jewish state in the past have drawn controversy and condemnation.
Tel Aviv University said on Wednesday it had decided to cancel plans by a private group of Wagner aficionados to rent out an auditorium on campus this month after fielding "angry and difficult" complaints from Holocaust survivors.
Uri Chanoch, deputy head of a survivors' group, had protested against plans to hold the concert in a letter to the university's president with a copy to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
"This is emotional torture for Holocaust survivors and the wider public in the State of Israel," said the letter, which appeared in the Israeli media.
Yonathan Livni, founder of the Israel Wagner Society, had hired 100 musicians to circumvent what he saw as a policy of Israel's state-subsidized orchestras to shun Wagner's work.
An unofficial ban on Wagner, including a taboo in airing his music on state-owned media, predates Israel's creation in 1948. The Israel Philharmonic under its former name, the Palestine Orchestra, imposed it in 1938 after Nazi attacks on Jews in Germany.
Attempts over the years by some musicians in Israel to perform Wagner's music have caused audience members to walk out in protest and have triggered heated public debate. Continued...

Doodle Scarf
This festive scarf was inspired by a Japanese thread motif, and its beauty is magnified by using a chunky yarn. It is assembled as you work; beginning with the flower motifs, next
adding the Pineapple motifs to the flowers, and finally joining them with a smaller loopy flower. An entertaining and satisfying one skein project!
You can also make a mini scarf by making half of the motifs and fastening it by pulling the Tassel through the end loop of the Pineapple motif. This version is featured in the bottom 3 photographs on the left.

New turtle tank!
4 Attachment(s)
I have had my red eared slider for about seven years, maybe more. He was so tiny when I first got him, he fit comfortably in a 10 gallon tank. Eventually, he outgrew that, so I moved him into a 30 gallon. He had plenty of space. Now, he is very quickly outgrowing the 30 gallon! So, for the past few months, I've been looking for cheap 55 gallon tanks on Craigslist.
Just last night, I found the best deal! :D a 55 gallon aquarium with stand, trade for 15 vinyl records. Luckily, my dad has tons of records and was willing to let some go.
We got this thing last night right after I contacted the seller. So now he has a very large tank. :) I got lucky!!

That's awesome - way to go! I have a 100 gal. for my RES, but I only fill it halfway. I've had him for over 15 years, closer to 20? And he's not anywhere near full grown yet. Congrats on the great score :)
Holy cow, we have a long way to go! How large is he? Mine is maybe five or six inched long. I'm guessing he'll get about 12 inches. Lol. Once again, I'll need another upgrade in the future.

He's about 8" long. Have you seen some of the amazing set-ups people have where they use the outdoor pond prefab shells? That's what I'd like someday. Dreamer, lol. Or have a McMansion with too many bathrooms and give him his own soaker tub. LMAO!
I do that too. I dream BIG for my pets. The majority of my birthday money usually is spent on them. Lol.
I'd love a 500 gallon aquarium for him with a waterfall setup. That's my goal if I win the lottery.

If you have watched a YouTube video latelyI haven't, since I understand the Bible to forbid cats from playing musical instrumentsyou have probably seen the National Republican Senatorial Committee's ad "Pulling the Strings." The 30-second spot depicts Montana's newly appointed senator, John Walsh, as a literal puppet of Harry Reid and Barack Obama.
"Harry Reid and Barack Obama are pulling the strings in Montana," the voice-over says, "setting up the next act for the hand-picked candidate John Walsh. Obama and Reid are going around Montanans, clearing the stage for Walsh to be appointed to the Senate."
It's an odd piece of election-season rhetoric for several reasons. First of all, Walsh was appointed by Gov. Steve Bullock, not Obama. Surely Obama and Reid had some say in his selection, but to criticize the man appointed to replace a Democratic senator made ambassador by a Democratic president for being a Democrat is like criticizing the Honda dealer for trying to put you in a Civic. That's just how the game is played.
It's particularly strange that the NRSC chose Walsh's party connection to Obama as the central message of its ad, because there are plenty of other ways to attack the new senator from Montana. In some ways, Walsh is a mudslinger's dream.
Before he was chosen to replace Max Baucus, Walsh had no experience in legislative politics at the state or federal level. He served as lieutenant governor for just more than a year. Before Bullock made him a member of the world's greatest deliberative body, Walsh spent pretty much his entire adult life in the Montana Army National Guard, and his record there was not stellar. If Walsh is a puppet, then the president has been operating him with his off hand.
In 2010, a report of the Army Inspector General concluded that Walsh had used his position as adjutant general for private gain by pressuring his subordinates to join the National Guard Association of the United States, a congressional lobbying organization. According to the Inspector General, Walsh was trying to increase NGAUS membership to bolster his candidacy for vice president of the group.
As ethical scandals go, that's not very exciting, and Walsh maintains that he and the IG simply disagreed in their interpretation of the rules. Still, it's a much stickier hunk of mud than the observation that he belongs to the same party as the president.
So, too, was the 2011 federal audit that found the Montana Department of Military Affairs was carelessly managing its relationships with government contractors. The department did not have a system in place to track the status of contracts; it couldn't even say how many contractors it had engaged. Brigadier General Walsh was at the center of that fiasco, but "Pulling the Strings" only briefly mentions it amid a 10-second series of decontextualized headlines.
The ad invests most of its 30 seconds in the puppet metaphor, cynically criticizing the very act of appointing a replacement senator. Bullock picks a career guardsman with a spotty record and no legislative experience, and the best the NRSC can come up with is that "Obama and Reid are going around Montanans" by not holding a special election nine months before the regular one.
Frankly, I thought our negative politics were better than that. As a Senate appointment, Walsh has many flaws, but getting appointed is not one of them. That the ad would make so much of his scandalous membership in the same political party as the people who picked him tells us something about the NRSC.
Specifically, their production department is not above half-assing a spot for a regional market they don't know much about. Anyone familiar with Montana politics could put together a substantive attack ad about Walsh, but apparently no such person sits on the Republicans' Hill committee. It seems the NRSC saw Montana's red complexion and decided that merely connecting Walsh to Obama would make us kick our smell-hounds and spit tobacco at the screen.
Their hackwork also suggests how much our fetid national discourse has swamped state and local politics. The Montana race for U.S. Senate is interesting right now, and Walsh is a vexed appointment who offers plenty of opportunities for argumenteven if that argument must take the form of attack ads. But the NRSC's attack ad doesn't invite us to consider anything interesting. It asks us to forget about state issues so we can join in a federal-level conflict between the parties.
Walsh's appointment isn't the next act in the epic struggle between Obama and the Republican Party; it's a decision that determines how our interests will be represented at the national level. Calling him a puppet of Obama cheapens our stake in our own politics. Sen. Walsh matters, but he matters a lot more to the people of Montana than he does to the president.

|Prestige Records
|Ira Gitler (4-7) and Bob Weinstock (1,2,3,8)
|Modern Jazz Quartet chronology
Django is an album by the Modern Jazz Quartet, first released on LP in 1956.
The actual sessions had taken place in June 1953, December 1954, and January 1955, and (as Prestige Records had yet to enter the LP era) were first released on two ten-inch albums, entitled Modern Jazz Quartet, Volume 2 (1953, containing "The Queen's Fancy", "Delauney's Dilemma" and "Autumn In New York") and Concorde (1955, much longer, containing "Django", "One Bass Hit", "La Ronde Suite" and "Milano"). The first session took place in New York, but the eventual Hackensack, New Jersey, sessions were engineered by Rudy Van Gelder; the whole album was reissued in 2006 as part of the Rudy Van Gelder Remasters collection.
The song "Django" (like the other original material on the album) was composed by the group's pianist and musical director, John Lewis. It is one of his best-known compositions, written in memory of the Belgian gypsy guitarist Django Reinhardt. One other apostrophic tune is "Delauney's Dilemma", a jaunty tribute to a French jazz critic. The lengthy "La Ronde Suite", with discrete sections emphasizing each group member's contributions, is in fact a version of the standard "Two Bass Hit", written by Lewis for Dizzy Gillespie and covered by, among others, Miles Davis on Milestones. Confusingly, Gillespie's own tune, "One Bass Hit", is also included as a feature for bassist Percy Heath.
Vibraphonist Milt "Bags" Jackson can famously be heard grunting and humming throughout the quieter numbers, which include covers of the Gershwins' "But Not For Me" and the Vernon Duke standard "Autumn In New York".
Track listing[edit]
- "Django" (John Lewis) – 7:03
- "One Bass Hit" (Dizzy Gillespie) – 2:59
- "La Ronde Suite" (Lewis) – 9:38

1 Cor. 11:28-31 offers these instructions about preparing for communion:
"Let a person examine himself, then, and so eat of the bread and drink of the cup. For anyone who eats and drinks without discerning the body eats and drinks judgment on himself. That is why many of you are weak and ill, and some have died. But if we judged ourselves truly, we would not be judged."
If we would just regularly go through this process of self-examination, confession, and repentance, if we would just judge ourselves in this way, then we wouldn't have to worry about the judgment of God. This is the process that Leon Morris describes as "distinguishing between what we are and what we ought to be." In other words, determining…
Here is where I am ——> here is where God's word says I should be…
And then taking measures against our shortcomings – prayer, confession, repentance, accountability – so that God's judgment, his discipline, won't be required. So repentance is, in a way, the process of anticipating God's judgment and then making corrections in order to avoid it.
I've been using Psalm 19:12-14 as my template for self-examination for a few years now and it has been really effective. The Psalmist writes:
Who can discern his errors?
Declare me innocent from hidden faults.
Keep back your servant also from presumptuous sins;
let them not have dominion over me!
Then I shall be blameless,
and innocent of great transgression.
Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart
be acceptable in your sight,
O LORD, my rock and my redeemer.
"Hidden faults" – the Psalmist is saying,"God, I don't even remember all of the sins I've committed. There are some that I committed in ignorance and others that I've forgotten about. Please search me and forgive me for those as well. Find these, show them to me, and then destroy them and declare me innocent of them!"
And that's not the only kind of sin he's concerned with. He also asks God to keep him from "presumptuous sins." What are these?These are sins committed while taking God's mercy for granted. These are sins committed boldly and arrogantly using God's grace like money in the bank, available for withdrawal at the sinner's convenience rather than at his repentance. "Yes, I'm going to do this but its ok because I know God will forgive me." This is presumptuous sin and it is very dangerous sin.
This is the kind of sin Paul was talking about in Romans 6:1-2. After he has just finished explaining how grace reigns in the life of believers, he says this: "What shall we say then? Are we to continue in sin that grace may abound? By no means! How can we who died to sin still live in it?" In other words, "If this grace is so abundant, if it cannot be exhausted, then shouldn't we sin even more so that more grace can be applied?!!!"
This is foolish, evil and treacherous thinking and yet sometimes we find ourselves in the middle of this type of thinking, this type of sin, don't we? We do something we know is sin and while we're doing it we tell ourselves that it's OK because God is gracious and will forgive us. Well God is gracious but this doesn't make our sinning OK.
The psalmist is aware that sin like this can very easily start to control us. Once we have laid a pattern for our minds in which God's grace is a licence for future sinning, there is really no limit to the sins we will categorize this way. Dietrich Bonhoeffer called this "cheap grace." We treat God's grace as a cheap plaything when we don't really want to live under God's authority or walk in his ways. We want the full advantages of his mercy, grace, and forgiveness but we want none of the costs and no restrictions. It shouldn't be so and it is a dangerous way to live.
The Process of Self-Examination
1. Known Sins
- What known and unconfessed sin is hindering your relationship with God?
- Is there any sin that has gone unchecked for quite a while?
- Is there anything present in your life that you know shouldn't be there?
- Accept God's forgiveness as you confess these known sins
2. Hidden Faults
- Has it been so long since you confessed any sins that you've probably forgotten about them?
- Is it possible that you have committed sins in ignorance and you're not even aware of them? (Yes, this is true of all of us)
- Ask God to reveal "hidden faults," then confess and accept forgiveness for those as well
3. Presumptuous Sins
- Have you ever been guilty (as I have been) of sinning while banking on God's grace and forgiveness?
- Have you boldly and arrogantly sinned before God?
- Are you living on the kind of grace you could buy at a dollar store, this cheap grace?
- This kind of sin, more than any other, will have dominion over you. It will control you
- Ask God to break the power of presumptuous sins and repent of those sins
Search me, Lord,
Declare me innocent, even from my hidden faults.
Search me, Lord,
Keep me from sinning in ways that show that I take your your mercy and your grace for granted.
Keep me from the dominating effect of these sins…
Then I shall be blameless,
and innocent of great transgression.
Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart
be acceptable in your sight,
O LORD, my rock and my redeemer.
