Ask an Eye Doctor and Get an Answer ASAP
I'm available tonight. I'll try to get you while you are online.
Just message me when you are online.
I am online and will wait here for you.
I am still here
let me know when you come online.
still here
message me when you come back online.
will try to get back online tonight.
but I'm online now.
I hope this thing is working right.
I'll continue to wait. you must be on the west coast?
good to see you online.
Are you still on the atropine?
when did you stop it?
some time ago. I was on it for 2 weeks
what problems are you having with your eyes now?
which is?
do you think we should start with the initial question?
it seems that there have been many questions. i am a little confuse what the goal of your self-test has been.
that is why i wanted to catch you online.
if it is not much of a bother, i'd like for you to start from the beginning.
If I don't strain my eyes, the vision is blurry and double.
When I pinhole to remove elements of refractive error, it still requires straining to get the image into focus. When I'm straining, adding pinhole does provide better clarity, indicating a small part of the problem is refractive error, but the fact that the biggest improvement is produced when I strain suggests the issue must be something besides refractive error?
have you seen an optometrist?
I don't know what change I'm inducing when I "strain"
many many
in several cities
so what am I doing?
can you tell me what their prescription has been for eyeglasses?
they all say they don't know, or give me different ones.
can you give me an idea of what their numbers are?
everything from +.75 to -4
have you had a cycloplegic refraction?
7 of them
what medicine was used for them?
dilation lasted between 2-5 days
was the -4 during one of those cycloplegic refractions?
I don't think so
do you wear glasses now?
the glasses I've bought made vision worse
do you have trouble seeing far away? trouble seeing up close? trouble far and near?
straining I can see both, not-straining neither
you likely have hyperopia (i.e. farsightedness).
except maybe the specific distance of about 13 inches
your amount of accommodation is very strong since you've been accommodating most of your life to be able to see clearly far and near.
it is difficult to give the full prescription to a hyperope.
so maybe I didn't need the lasik I had 13 years ago?
you may need to force yourself into a partial plus prescription first for a few months, then increase the prescription in a stepwise fashion.
what was your prescription before the lasik?
don't remember.
why can't I see clearly once I'm cyclopleged, so matter what lens, but I can non-cyclopleged without any lens.
*no matter
it seems that you may have accommodative spasms.
+.75 to -4 is a very wide range to fluctuate.
having lasik done can also cause some straining effect on your eyes as well.
but we ruled out spasm with the atropine.
and I never had straining issues after the lasik
when people have spasm (habit of over-accommodation), their eyes cross?
not always.
when people have spasm (habit of over-accommodation), pin-holing helps, or does not help?
pin holing helps for all types of refractive error. helps little in your case.
doesn't really say how much refractive error you have though.
so are you saying spasm is not refractive error?
spasm causes a refractive error, but it is variable and transient.
then maybe that's not what I have, because it never changes for past several years.
what never changes?
my distance of clearity, it's always 13 inches
your vision is always clear at 13 inches?
Yes. Maybe I should ask a different way. If someone has spasm, their focus distance is close up. Is it locked there, or can they change their focus distance, and if so how?
so if you vision is always clear at a single distance, that means you accommodate very little.
I don't follow
wouldn't it mean I'm nearsighted?
yes it suggest you are a little nearsighted.
so what muscles am I using to flatten my lens?
the ciliary muscles.
I thought those are for curving it?
when the ciliary muscles contract, it relaxes the lens and fattens it.
when it relaxes, it pulls on the lens and flattens.
that does not make sense
look it up on youtube. the ciliary muscles works slightly opposite compared to other muscles.
how can opposite actions create the same result?
contracting and relaxing both flatten the lens?
contractions relaxes the lens, causing it to bulge a bit.
yes, that's what I thought
you said it flattens it
sorry, typo.
are you watching TV?
i meant fatten
or.. if you look at this screen for example.
the text to me looks light grey, but
if I pin-hole I realize it's black.
I'm thinking that's due to astigmatism.
which is mild, so let's set that aside from the picture.
so, following the logic...
are you saying that when I "strain" I'm relaxing my ciliary muscles?
though you see it light grey, is the text clear?
you have some irregularity of your cornea.
especially since you have had lasik.
right, and that part I can live with fine.
irregular astigmatism cannot be fully corrected by glasses.
it's minor and I'm ok with it.
pin holing can improve the irregular astigmatism.
right. but that's a small change, so not the problem I'm concerned with.
this may be your problem rather than over accommodation.
have you had a corneal topography done?
it came out fine
I also tried hard contacts
do they help?
no change. that's because the cornea is not the issue.
Are you saying that when I "strain" I'm relaxing my ciliary muscles?
I'm assuming when you say strain you mean accommodate.
I'm meaning strain
when you accommodate, you contract your ciliary muscles.
yes, I know.
Strain is a vague term, so would't know what your eyes would be doing.
you said if my focus is close, then I need to relax those muscles to see far.
I'm getting to that.
it depends on if you are nearsighted or farsighted.
but we already determined that?
i'm not sure if we did.
you mentioned your vision is clear at 13 inches.
this suggest that you are slightly nearsighted.
but you always say you can see well at distance when you accommodate which suggest farsightedness.
Would relaxing my ciliary muscles feel strenuous, give headache and get tired over time? It seems that tensing them would produce those sensations?
at your age, your range of accommodation is mild.
i don't that you are able to accommodate as much as you suggest.
Would relaxing my ciliary muscles feel strenuous, give headache and get tired over time? It seems that tensing them would produce those sensations?
relaxing your ciliary muscles would not feel strenuous.
yes, accommodating requires work.
ok then, so that means if I'm straining all the time, then I'm farsighted?
yes, it is suggestive of that.
but how can I be farsighted if vision is clear at 13 inches?
your eye strain may not be accommodation.
eye strain can be due to dry eyes, uncorrected astigmatism.
that doesn't make sense to me, how can straining your eyes make them wet or correct astigmatism?
when I strain, I'm doing something to make the vision clear at all distances... so I'm still trying to understand from you what I'm doing?
i think we're going around in circles.
i'm not sure if i'll be able to give you a satisfying answer.
The question of this ticket was how to stop straining, and to do that I figure we need to determine why I'm straining.
so that's what I'm trying to help you determine.
I thought you were going to ask the questions.
and that's why you wanted to chat.
if you are over-accommodating, then glasses with plus diopters will help relax your eyes and stop them from accommodating.
ok, but when I try that I can't see anything, relaxed or straining.. suggesting to me it's the wrong prescription.
is these prescription glasses?
and contacts
what power contacts?
contacts were +.5 and glasses were +1 to +3
so every power was tried.
higher the power, the worse the vision got
i'm sorry, i don't think i will be able to help you further. there seems to be many things going on with your eyes.
I'm not saying it's true, but just to give you an idea from my shoes and from what I'm experiencing it gives the perception eye Dr don't know what they are doing or just don't want to try.
that's not a fair statement.
I can't imagine it being so hard to determine if someone is near or far sighted.
it's not that hard.
in your case, there must be other things going on that an in person exam would be helpful.
but no in person examiner has been able to answer that question.
have you been to an ophthalmologist?
yes, many.
and several neuro-ophthalmologists
at Duke, Mayo, etc.
they all just say they don't know.
and you believe it's because they are incompetent or not trying?
well, like you said, it's not that hard.
yes, it's not that hard.
it seems to be very difficult in your case.
so that's why I"m perplexed.
me too.
so far, I've figured out a lot more than they have.
what are your conclusions?
they don't know much about eyes.... for example.. my eyes are clearly crossing inward, yet they prescribe BI prism.. does that make sense?
yes/no? BI for eyes crossing pre-target?
so see what I mean.
all have prescribed BI. When I asked if BI was right for eyes crossing in, they said yes.
It didn't make sense to me.
let me just ask this...
when I go for an exam, they should be able to find a lens that get's me at least close to what I see when I strain, or when I pin-hole, right? Unless it is that I have spasmed accommodation, right?
pinhole vision is artificial and cannot be replicated with a lens.
you are correct in a a lens should get you close to when you strain.
And they should be able to determine in the exam if I have spasm, right?
not necessarily.
spasms are variable. so you can be one prescription at one time, and another prescription another time.
if my accommodative muscles are locked in a tensed state, does that mean they can't find a lens during the exam?
no, a lens can still be found.
it just means that it can be one thing during the exam, when you get glasses it changes, so the lens is not right anymore.
(correct lens)
but this whole thing is mute, because as you said earlier, if i'm straining, then i'm tensing the ciliary muscles, which means in my case they are not spasmed?
b/c if they were spasmed, I would be relaxing them.
not tensing them.
spasm of accommodation is still activating the ciliary muscles.
right, so they would get sore from the spasm, not relaxing.
but it's the opposite, they get sore from when I make my vision clear, which suggests I'm tensing them to get my vision clear
which means it can't be spasm
let me ask you this, without glasses are you 20/20 at distance
with contacts with only correction for VERY slight astigmatism, I'm 20/20
what is your vision at distance without glasses or contacts?
my vision is also very good up close. naked my distance vision is close to 20/20 but don't know the exact number
so, is your distance vision clear or blurry?
is your near vision clear or blurry without glasses or contacts?
but both give me headaches and takes more effort to get clear as the day goes on.
so, your problem is not clarity of vision, but rather eye strain. is that correct?
well I have eye strain or no vision, so I'm forced to choose strain.
e.g. right now I've got a bad tension headache around my eyes, and if I relax them, I can't see anything.
my eye balls hurt.
ok. sounds likes farsightedness.
sounds like dry eyes.
dry eyes make my forehead hurt? I 'm not sure it's that b/c wetting drops don't help
ok.. so summary... I'm slightly far sighted and this makes my accommodation over work and get tired?
i don't think it is as simple as that.
i think you have some degree of uncorrected hyperopia.
i think you have some degree of dry eyes.
both of which can cause eye strain/ache.
you may have also some eye misalignment, esophoria or exophoria.
this can also cause eye strain, sometimes double vision.
it may be combination of these factors.
I'm going to post final clarifications as new questions so you get multiple credits. hold one sec.
ok, those others have been posted.
so, a plus lens should relieve the straining?
if it is due to accommodation.
which would be the straining i'm doing?
part of it.
if the strain is from dry eyes, then plus lens don't do anything of that.
for that
flax oil?
flaxseed oil can help with dry eyes.
omega-3 fatty acids.
lid scrubs.
warm compresses.
ok, need to end this conversation. What do I ask for when go for next exam so I can get clear vision without strain?
use phoropter to find plus power for farsightedness?
if yes, must i be cyclopleged for this?
the phoropter is just a bunch of lens in one convenient place. the doctor should determine if you are farsighted or nearsighted.
but ask the doctor to check if you have any hyperopia.
how does she do that?
you shouldn't need to be cyclopleged, but with your past difficulties it would be helpful to do a refraction without drops, then one with cycloplegia -- cyclogyl.
start with a high plus power and go down from that.
ok, thanks, XXXXX XXXXX think anyone has known to do that.
it's standard teaching. hopefully that was part of your refractions in the past.
right, but if they couldn't determine before, then I'm not sure what they were doing.. anyway, maybe it will help now that i'm asking them to check for hyperopia
keep me updated on their conclusions.
they hyperopia doesn't mesh though with my cyclopleged readings we discused, which indicate i'm myopic?
When cyclopleged (Atropine) and +2.5 readers, my vision is clear at a distance of 30.5cm (as you know it should be 40cm) and with +1.25 readers it's 51cm (should be 80cm).
but if you were myopic, then your distance would not be 20/20 regardless of how much you accommodate.
I have no idea what will happen, but I'll let you know what does. I'm so lost.
wish me luck.
good night.
good luck and good night.

Beauty,Spring 2005 Third Web Papers On Serendip
On Seeing the Beauty in the Paintings of Matisse, the Shape of a Rectangle, and the Number Three
by Alix Dermer
I stand before three long-rectangular canvases. Each canvas holds a separate and autonomous image, possessing the ability to physically stand alone while remaining aesthetically engaging and coherent. However these three seemingly separate images exist intrinsically connected to one another, and together they create one pictorial narrative. Collectively, these three canvases compose one work of art entitled "Three Sisters" by Henri Matisse. The "Three Sisters" first grabbed my attention during my first fieldtrip to the Barnes in January. As I explored the museum for the first time, I was bombarded by the hundreds of paintings that adorned the walls. Room after room, the variety of artists and styles overwhelmed me, and it was not long before every Renoir, Cezanne and Matisse began to look the same.
Before I stepped into the Barnes from the frigid wind on that January morning, I was already acquainted with museums and art, especially that of the French Impressionist style. I had studied Art History and was exposed to the ideas and theories of the discipline. I suppose, from the viewpoint of Barnes, I was already tainted and would never be able to experience his collection of art the way he intended he students to. I also had a vague knowledge of the backgrounds and biographies of the artists whose art hung on the walls inside the Barnes. I explored each room inside, taking note of those paintings which I found most striking and quickly discovered my preference for Matisse's work. Something about the colors and shapes in his works evoked immediate feelings. Matisse's works seemed most alive to me and ignited some sort of emotion without my conscious analysis. It was that subconscious arousal of emotions, which signified to me that I, in fact, found these particular pieces of art beautiful.
As I write these words I am reminded of the article, "The Ivory Tower of Tearlessness" discussed by James Elkins. I was able to personally relate to the article, as I am someone whose emotions are not easily shaken one way or the other by art of any medium – be it a painting, novel, or movie. I do not believe however, that my stoic attitude toward art is any reflection of my appreciation of it. I have always been able to experience and appreciate art, while maintaining a distance between my emotions and the work itself. That being said, I believe this characteristic causes me to have passionate tastes in terms of the arts, as I must strongly like or dislike a particular work of art for my emotions to be rattled in anyway. I therefore acknowledged, during that first visit to the Barnes, that I could not simply dismiss the affinity that developed between me and the art of Matisse.
Matisse was conscious of the beautiful images he chose to paint. He is known for his expressive use of color, and some even claim that Matisse created a kind of "paradise world" within his paintings.(Pioch) Matisse was known to be an anxious man who strove to convey a serene and comforting beauty with his paintings.(Pioch) He was once quoted as saying that he viewed each piece of his art "like a good armchair."(Pioch) It is definitely these visions of serenity and paradise, to which I am most attracted in his art. I feel as though his paintings truly transport me to this other more beautiful world he created.
Upon my return to the Barnes today, I arrived having yet to decide which painting I would write about. Although I wished to remain open minded about the many possibilities that adorned the walls inside the Barnes, I suspected that whichever painting I chose would most likely be a Matisse. It remained a mystery – even to my subconscious – which specific painting I would ultimately choose. But now, I know, staring at the suitably named "Three Sisters" that this collection of paintings is what I choose to discuss.
Its color is the aspect that most immediately attracted me to the "Three Sisters." There is a strong theme of green that runs through the three scenes depicted on each of the three canvases. Admittedly, I cannot say that I have clung to liking only one favorite color over the years; however, I can say that I currently am particularly attracted to any shade of the color green. While green has not always stood out to me among the other colors of the spectrum, it is the color that plucks my attention most at the moment. I would not even say that green is the most prominent color throughout the three images; however it is greenness in the paintings that first attracted me to this Matisse trio.
The size and shape of the canvases themselves are the next aspects which intrigued me about the trio. Each rectangular canvas itself is large and spans almost the entire length of the wall; however, each rectangle's width is proportionally narrow, and I am struck by their unconventional dimensions. But since each canvas is not a separate entity but rather a mere part of the larger narrative of the three, I stand back and try to imagine the trio as one painting with one frame enclosing the three separate canvases. Matisse has granted the viewer of this work a certain freedom and has created an almost type of optical game in how one chooses to perceive the three images.
The paintings' subject, which I perceive to be both exotic and enchanting, sparks my interest as well. Each separate canvas depicts a posed arrangement of three sisters, though I am unable to tell whether or not they are the same women in each of the three scenes. Thus in the complete trio of canvases live a total of nine female figures. I am conceptually intrigued by the play of the relationship among the woman within each canvas and the possibility of a relationship between the sets of sisters amongst the canvases. I even go on to ponder the relationship among each of complete scenes in the canvases and even the physical canvases themselves. I am left to wonder if perhaps Matisse refers not to the depicted figures within the canvases but to the actual canvases themselves, when he entitles the work "Three Sisters." Perhaps each canvas is a sister – obviously related and similar in creation and appearance, while still able to exist independently from one another. Like the painted sisters, whom Matisse poses and groups in a visually pleasing manner with regards to shape and space inside each canvas, Matisse also arranges and displays the three rectangular-canvas "sisters," paying close attention as well to shape and space along the wall.
These are the thoughts and questions, which race through my mind as stand in front of these grand figures. But now I stop pondering for a moment, since I do not find the beauty of art in knowing or understanding the subject and its history. I agree with the part of the Barnes aesthetic that places no value on the background information behind a work of art. I agree that I do not need any prior or outside knowledge in order to appreciate Matisse's "Three Sisters." I found myself attracted to this work of art, but my feelings may not necessarily be enhanced by external historical information. And thus, through my exercise on reading the painting, "The Sisters," by Matisse, I leave the Barnes museum with not only a new appreciation and awareness of various beauties in art, but also a new and applied appreciation for the aesthetic values of Albert Barnes and his museum.

Biographies of Female Mathematicians
These pages are part of an on-going project by students in mathematics classes at Agnes Scott College, in Atlanta, Georgia, to illustrate the numerous achievements of women in the field of mathematics. There are biographical essays or comments on most of the women mathematicians and some photos.
This site has biographies of mathematicians organized in both an alphabetical and a chronological index.
This site has biographies, posters and quotations of mathematicians on the dates of their birth.
The Mathematics Genealogy Project is a resource to help mathematicians trace their intellectual lineage. The goal of the project is to list all individuals who have received doctorates in Mathematics in the 20th century, and to note where and when they received the degree, the title of their dissertation and the name of their advisor.

Despite warnings from Pyongyang, South Korea says it will light three giant Christmas trees along the North Korean border.
North Korea has warned South Korea of "unexpected consequences" if it goes thrugh with its plans, the BBC reports. Pyongyang has accused Seoul of using the trees to spread the Christian message to people inside Noth Korea.
A government official said Seoul will light the steel Christmas structures on Dec. 23 and keep them on until Jan. 6, Chosun Ilbo reports. Seoul says it is acting on a request of Christian evangelical organizations.
The trees, located at Aegibong Peak and near two observatory platforms on the central and eastern frontlines, are visible from North Korea.
The military lit the trees on Aegibong Peak in 2010 for the first time in seven years, Chosun Ilbo reports.

Position in an interesting town. We did not think it was particularly good for older people as the stairs were steep and narrow and there was no lift. We were concerned about fire escape facilities.
Very friendly staff
We have stayed here before. Richelieu is a very pretty town, worth exploring. The hotel is a lovely old building and the food is very good.
Very friendly staff and superb food in a brilliant setting overlooking the fountain in the pretty square.
Not much---room was cheap and poorly appointed; bathroom was lacking soap & shower; bed was hard; stuffyw/ little air. It was funky but staff was accomodating and pleasant.
Very little Room was very small at top of hotel. We were not informed that hotel had no lift. Dogs in breakfast room allowed to roam freely
clean room, friendly staff food wasn't good.
Great location! The family room was quite small and the bathroom needs updating.
Excellent value for money.

Perry Como
With Orchestra and Chorus
Not long ago a hardened Broadway talent agent said, "If I was the State Department, what would I do? I'd take this Perry Como guy and send him to every country in the world — as a sort of an Abe Lincoln of American pop singers. Twenty years ago, what was he doing? He was cutting hair — fifteen bucks a week! And now — one million, count 'em, American dollars per year! A success that Horatio Alger could not have even dreamed of! The most popular singer in the world whose records have sold more copies than those of anyone else — the staggering total of 400,000,000 discs! Plus the highest rating ever achieved by any vocal artist in the history of TV! Plus an ideal marriage with a lovely wife and three kids. Plus the fact that everybody, from the president of the company down to the page who ushers his fans around, calls him 'Perry.' Is that is, I am asking you, or is that not American democracy at it's best?"
And it would be hard to find anyone who would not agree with that evaluation, for the relaxed Mr. C. is not only the Number One interpreter of popular music but is also probably the nicest and unaffected guy in the entire vicious welter of show business.
When you consider its scope, the field of American popular music does have a surprisingly large number of very different interpreters. Amid all the trends of the times there stands out the honeyed baritone of Perry Como singing away hit after hit as eloquently, as beautifully and as effectively in 1956 as he was doing in 1946 — indeed, perhaps even more so.
His secret? Perhaps more than anything else it is his unique, and typical, relaxed presentation of songs. Other singers take vocal lessons and spend a great deal of time practicing. Perry, on the other hand, merely saunters into the studio, opens his mouth and there you have one best-selling record after the next, as smooth and rich, as mellow and effortless as the most fastidious aficionado could desire.
Pierino Ronald Como was born in Canonsburg, Pennsylvania. Although he always like to sing, his first great ambition was to be the best darned barber in all Canonsburg. After graduation from high school, he opened his own tonsorial establishment that featured the special Como haircuts plus some mighty pleasing Como singing in the background. In 1933 Perry joined Freddy Carlone's band in Ohio and three years later moved up to Ted Weems' Orchestra and his first record dates.
In 1942 Weems dissolved his band and Perry went on to CBS where he sang for a couple of years without any conspicuous success. By this time the erstwhile barber had definitely decided to return to Canonsburg, his family and his barbering. Just as Perry was about to abandon his singing career once and for all, Fate in the person of two NBC producers felicitously stepped in and wheedled him back into show business — specifically for the NBC "Supper Club," followed by very successful theatre and night club engagements.
Came 1945 and Como's practically perfect reading of the Buddy Kaye-Ted Mossman pop ballad, 'Till the End of Time (based of course on Chopin's "Polonaise"), and the rest is not only recording but also TV history: Perry is the only artist who has ever had "ten" records to go over the magic million-copies mark (including, incidentally, 'Till the End of Time, Prisoner of Love, Because, When You Were Sweet Sixteen and Temptation — all in this album) and, although he is "just a singer," as he puts it, his television show has achieved a much higher rating than that of any other vocalist so far.

About Me
I have been doing digital SLR photography for about 3-1/2 years. I was doing film before that. Medium format, mostly. I was born with a film camera in one hand and a light meter in the other and I grew up in a darkroom. Now I have a grey card and a histogram.
Occasionally, I look for models. I do my photography around my day job and so my available time sometimes gets scarce. I still manage to dream up new projects anyway. And so if an idea sparks my imagination I look for a model who is similarily intrigued. And then I make time!!
I like to work with a woman wearing semi-transparent one-piece swimwear all nice and wet. You see, I used to take pictures of mountains and lakes years ago and have decided to concentrate more on wet look and slick skin. It is just a personal preference sort of a thing but it works for me!
I would like to do more liquid latex bodypaint projects in the coming year. I have also been dabbling in stage makeup paint in gold, silver, and bronze.
Occasionally, events materialize and I would like to be there and be ready to take photos. However, I like to practice first so I can shoot with fast reactions. Usually, the people will be in motion. For my practice with you, the content does not have to be related to the event, It can be things that would look good on your port or my port here at MM or other similar sites.
Also, I am scouting locations in the back country for a gold-fairie-in-the-woods project. This one is still in the back of my mind for me. The liquid latex and zentai/paint ideas take priority unless I find a golden inclined muse.
Stop the press!!! I am doing some work in Tustin Irvine area and also in Studio City, so if you are there...
Also, I have a florescent green bike and would like a model for it. Got to touch the paint up first... scratches, one side...
Please contact me, if you have ideas, nudes take precedence but they are not exclusive for me.

Psalm 144:1-2 "Blessed be the LORD my strength... my goodness, and my fortress; my high tower, and my deliverer; my shield, and he in whom I trust."
God is a stronghold for us when Satan tempts us to sin.
There is a place in Israel near the Dead Sea called Masada. It looks like a mountain with a flat, square top. Masada was once a huge getaway palace for Herod the Great. In the first century after the time of Christ, Jewish people used it as a fortress. Men, women, and children lived there for three years, hiding from the Romans who had attacked and destroyed their cities. "The Romans cannot get to us here," they thought. "We are safe in Masada."
But they were not safe. The Roman army built a siege ramp all the way up the side of the mountain. Day after day, the Jews saw the Romans working on the ramp, and they knew that they had only a little time.
When the Romans finally stormed up the siege ramp to take the fortress, they found all of the Jewish people dead. The Jews had decided to kill themselves rather than lose their freedom. Their Masada had not protected them after all.
The word Masada comes from a Hebrew word that is often translated "fortress," "defence," or "stronghold." This word is often used in the Psalms to describe God. God is a stronghold for us as believers. Because we belong to God, we have an enemy, Satan, who is the enemy of God. Satan would like us to turn away from God and live in sin, doubt, and defeat.
But when Satan and his forces attack our minds and hearts, God is a safe fortress for us to hide in. When we believe His Word and depend on His help to obey it, He will keep us from sin. God is stronger than Masada. He will never fail or be taken by the enemy. Satan can never defeat us when we make God our stronghold. God is a stronghold for us when Satan tempts us to sin.
Am I abiding in God as my stronghold?
"He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose."
Many thought it was a waste of a good life when Jim Elliot announced he was going to spend his life on a foreign mission field. His life and death, however, encouraged thousands to follow his example. Was his life a waste? You decide….
Philip James Elliot was born on October 8, 1927, in Portland, Oregon. His father was an evangelist, and his mother was a chiropractor. Growing up, Jim and his three siblings were introduced to countless missionaries who visited in their home and told them exciting stories about Gospel work.
In 1945, Jim went to Wheaton College. He became a star on the wrestling team, and roomed with Pete Fleming. Together, these two friends dedicated their lives to whatever Christ had for them.
During his junior year of college, he met a godly girl named Elisabeth Howard. They had a long courtship, and then were married on his 26th birthday. Following their marriage, the Elliots continued to form detailed plans on how they could best reach the most unreached Ecuadorian natives with the Gospel. They knew the Aucas were a hostile tribe in Ecuador, but the added risk did not matter to them. They enlisted the help of four other men – including Elliot's old college roommate, Pete Fleming – and made plans to take the good news specifically to the Aucas.
Little did these five men and their families know that their mission to the Aucas would be the last thing they ever did. On January 8, 1956, some misunderstandings and hostility came to a head, and the Aucas turned against their would-be friends and evangelists. All five of the missionary men were speared to death by those whom they had endeavored to reach.
Through their own family members and those back home who heard about their testimonies, though, the men's mission to reach the Aucas eventually came to pass. Elisabeth Elliot stayed on and Nate Saint's sister Rachel came to help. Many more young workers were inspired to give their lives to missionary endeavors worldwide as a result of the Ecuador martyrs' sold-out dedication to spreading God's Gospel.
As Jim Elliot wrote, "Wherever you are, be all there. Live to the hilt every situation you believe to be the will of God."
What are you doing for God right now? Are you doing your best in the responsibilities God has given you right now? Your school work? Being in your family and in your church family what you ought to be? Do you take your work and your studies seriously? Wherever you are right now (by God's grace), "be there" with your whole heart!
1 Corinthians 10:31 – Therefore, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.
The Last
Isaiah 44:6 "Thus saith the LORD the King of Israel, and his redeemer the LORD of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God."
Yes! God says we are purified by obeying the truth ("thy Word is truth") through the Spirit. 1 Peter 1:22 – Seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently.
Conversion is an action one makes by repenting and putting their trust in Christ. One must turn from sin (repent) and turn to Christ through faith. (Matthew 11:28-29) "Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart; and ye shall find rest unto your souls."

January payroll employment rises (+157,000); jobless rate essentially unchanged (7.9%)
Source: U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics
Total nonfarm payroll employment increased by 157,000 in January, and the unemployment
rate was essentially unchanged at 7.9 percent, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics
reported today. Retail trade, construction, health care, and wholesale trade added jobs
over the month.
Household Survey Data
The number of unemployed persons, at 12.3 million, was little changed in January. The
unemployment rate was 7.9 percent and has been at or near that level since September 2012.
(See table A-1.) (See the note and tables B and C for information about annual population
adjustments to the household survey estimates.)
Among the major worker groups, the unemployment rates for adult men (7.3 percent), adult
women (7.3 percent), teenagers (23.4 percent), whites (7.0 percent), blacks (13.8 percent),
and Hispanics (9.7 percent) showed little or no change in January. The jobless rate for
Asians was 6.5 percent (not seasonally adjusted), little changed from a year earlier.
(See tables A-1, A-2, and A-3.)
In January, the number of long-term unemployed (those jobless for 27 weeks or more) was
about unchanged at 4.7 million and accounted for 38.1 percent of the unemployed. (See
table A-12.)
Adjustments to Veteran Population Estimates for the Household Survey
Effective with data for January 2013, estimates for veterans in table 5 of this
release incorporate population controls derived from an updated Department of
Veterans Affairs' population model. Other tables in this release are not affected.
In accordance with usual practice, BLS will not revise estimates in table 5 for
December 2012 and earlier months.

Good morning, Freepers and DUers alike. I especially welcome viewers from across the aisle. You're paying for this information too, so you ought to see this as much as anyone. Please, everyone, put aside your differences long enough to digest the information. After that, you can engage in your usual donnybrook.
If you don't have the time to study the report thoroughly, here is the news in a nutshell:
Commissioner's Statement on The Employment Situation
What is important about these statistics is not so much this months number, but the trend. So lets look at some earlier numbers.
ADP, for employment in January 2013:
U.S. Economy Added 192,000 Private-Sector Jobs in January, According to ADP National Employment Report
BLS, for employment in December 2012:
December payroll employment rises (+155,000); unemployment rate unchanged (7.8%)
From The Wall Street Journal. of January 4, 2013:
Economy Adds 155,000 Jobs
ADP, for employment in December 2012:
U.S. Economy Added 215,000 Private-Sector Jobs in December, According to ADP National Employment Report
BLS, for employment in November:
November payroll employment rises (+146,000); unemployment rate edges down (7.7%)
ADP, for employment in November:
U.S. Economy Added 118,000 Private-Sector Jobs in November, According to ADP National Employment Rep
ADP, for employment in October:
U.S. Economy Added 158,000 Private-Sector Jobs in October, According to ADP National Employment Report
BLS, for employment in September:
U.S. Economy Added 114,000 Jobs In September, Unemployment Falls To 7.8%
U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics - The Employment Situation - September 2012
The charge was made that Septembers BLS numbers were cooked. A fellow who used to head the BLS says this is not possible.
Impossible to Manipulate Labor Survey Data Former BLS Head
By Geoffrey Rogow
ADP, for employment in September:
U.S. Private-Sector Employment Increased by 162,000 Jobs in September, According to ADP
BLS, for employment in August:
August payroll employment rises (+96,000); unemployment rate edges down (8.1%)
An increase of 96,000 is really lackluster. It's not just lackluster, but, as the first response says, "disappointing." It's half the ADP estimate. Here is a quote from yesterday's ADP news release:
August 2012 Report
ADP, for employment in August:
The ADP National Employment Report August 2012
BLS, for employment in July:
July payroll employment rises (+163,000); jobless rate essentially unchanged (8.3%)
ADP, for employment in July. I heard an estimate earlier this morning that the growth in employment would be on the order of 100,000.
The ADP National Employment Report July 2012
BLS, for employment in June:
Payroll employment continues to edge up in June (+80,000); jobless rate unchanged (8.2%)
Of particular importance for the BLS estimate for June was this article from that days Wall Street Journal.
Unemployment Line Longer Than It Looks
Hmmm. Give that some thought. Also, when Mays figures were released, Judson Phillips of Tea Party Nation was on Tom Hartmann that Friday night. He kept referring to the "U-6 Number." That can be found in Table A15. It is "Total unemployed, plus all persons marginally attached to the labor force, plus total employed part time for economic reasons, as a percent of the civilian labor force plus all persons marginally attached to the labor force." It appears in two forms, seasonally adjusted and non-seasonally adjusted. Either way, it is the least optimistic of all the estimates.
Thanks to DUer alp227, you can watch Judson Phillipss appearance on Tom Hartmannn here: http://www.democraticunderground.com/1014184289#post12
ADP, for employment in June:
ADP jobs up 176,000 (for June)
BLS, for employment in May:
May payroll employment changes little (+69,000); jobless rate essentially unchanged (8.2%)
ADP, for employment in May:
May change in employment +133,000
BLS, for employment in April:
Payroll employment rises 115,000 in April; unemployment rate changes little (8.1%)
ADP and Gallup, for employment in April:
There were four related threads about the April jobs estimate at DU already. Three are in General Discussion, and they are based on the figures from ADP. The fourth, in LBN, paints a contrasting picture. It relies on the figures from Gallup.

One more thing:
So how many jobs must be created every month to have an effect on the unemployment rate? There's an app for that.

Well, enough of that. On with the show.
Monthly Employment Reports
The large print giveth, and the fine print taketh away.
A DU'er pointed out several months ago that, if I'm going to post the link to the press release, I should include the link to all the tables that provide additional ways of examining the data. Specifically, I should post a link to "Table A-15. Alternative measures of labor underutilization." Table A-15 includes those who are not considered unemployed, on the grounds that they have become discouraged about the prospects of finding a job and have given up looking. Here are those links.

1. Ha-ha. "Essentially unchanged" - ha-ha-ha. Actualy, UE rate INCREASED by
0.1% in January (from 7.8 to 7.9%).
Combined with Q4 GDP contraction and December 2012 collapse in consumer confidence, spells trouble ahead.
Way to go, Do-Nothing (Rape-publi-scum) Congress! With you at the helm (of the budget and appropriations process), the economy is headed straight for a ditch.

3. Even more important were the large UPWARD revisions for Nov and Dec.
Together those revisions were something like 150,000 additional jobs.
It will be interesting to see if anyone notices.

4. I did, which begs a question for number crunchers:
Why does it take so long for BLS to revise November, which is atunning jump to 247,000? Is there a a chance that what January is showing now will be revised up over 200,000?
In my eyes, I will again say this is good news, but not great news. The markets are happy because they get more cheap money from the Fed. Congress needs to do some Keyne and press the pedal down on this puppy. Screw the debt.

UFO crashes into North Harringay primary school playground
PUBLISHED: 06:30 01 October 2013
Youngsters got a surprise that was out of this world last week when a UFO crashed into their primary school playground.
The saucer-shaped intergalactic craft was found half-buried in the tarmac at North Harringay primary school in Falkland Road.
A forensic officer was spotted inspecting the UFO while police closely guarded the scene, which was roped off while investigations took place.
The whole event was just the inspiration pupils needed for a creative writing day at the school, and was orchestrated by Emma Hassan, its literacy leader, with the help of one very creative parent and a local PC.
She said: "A very talented parent built the space craft in a limited amount of time and kindly dressed as a forensic detective to help with the staging of the crash. PC Glyn Kelly also agreed to attend the scene to add to the mystery of the crash.
"Both children and parents were excited by it and the rest of the school day revolved around discussions as to what could have happened, with the children carrying out creative writing tasks.
"Some fantastic pieces of writing were produced by both girls and boys resulting in a successful day of creative writing."

COLUMBUS - Partners in the State of Ohio's Take Action - Protect Yourself from Fraud program are cautioning seniors with Medicare to be on the alert for a Part D prescription drug coverage scam involving the $250 "doughnut hole" rebate checks. President Obama and Governor Strickland both warned seniors that scam artists are calling seniors to solicit their personal information, such as social security numbers, bank account information and Medicare numbers, incorrectly claiming they need this information to mail the Part D rebate check.
The first batch of one-time rebate checks, a result of the federal health care reform Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA), has been mailed by the U.S Department of Health and Human Services. The rebate checks will be mailed monthly throughout the year as new beneficiaries hit the doughnut hole, the portion of Part D coverage when a beneficiary pays all of his or her prescription drug costs out of pocket.
Insurance Director Mary Jo Hudson and Aging Director Barbara Riley urge Ohio seniors to be vigilant and use the tools provided by the Take Action program to avoid becoming a victim and to report any unscrupulous activity.
"We want Ohio seniors to clearly understand that the federal government will be directly mailing them their Part D rebate check when they hit the doughnut hole," Director Hudson said. "If someone says they need your personal information to mail you the rebate or they can help you get your check more quickly if you pay them a fee, immediately report this scam to the authorities."
Last year, roughly 156,000 Medicare beneficiaries in Ohio hit the doughnut hole.
"This rebate program is a first and crucial step to improved prescription drug coverage for older Ohioans, and I am appalled that some people are exploiting this opportunity for personal gain," Director Riley said. "Consumers who take an active role, seek information and take action against scams like this are key in making the schemes go away. Our aim is to arm all Ohioans against this and other types of consumer fraud."
Take Action and AARP Ohio Tips and Information:
Launched in May, Take Action focuses on alerting consumers to types of deceptive sales practices and schemes currently occurring in annuities, living trusts, stranger-originated life insurance (STOLI), reverse mortgages, Medicare sales and health care fraud. Take Action also assists Ohioans in safeguarding their online information and warding off unwanted telemarketers and spammers.
A free consumer guide provides background facts on areas where people are exploited and serves as a workbook listing important questions to ask.

Peels, NYCJune 16, 2013
On a warm Sunday recently, I went on an ingredient search with a friend around the streets of NYC, and then ended up at Peels on the Bowery for breakfast.
In addition to the traditional Bloody Mary, Peels offers a spicy Maria made with jalapeno-infused tequila ($10) that hit the spot.
For brunch, my friend ordered the free-range boneless fried chicken sandwich ($12.95), with pickles, iceberg lettuce and honey mustard accompanied by lots of fries. I had the shrimp and grits — with small in a tomatoey Cajun sauce with house made tasso over the jalapeno-infused grits topped with a fried egg ($13.25). I recommend.
While there, we got chatting with our neighbors, who were less than pleased with their service. He asked for a biscuit as an appetizer. His biscuit — and hers — arrived with his meal, but without hers. Not appropriate to serve him and not serve her until almost 10 minutes later. That and the waiter, almost never spoke a word to them.
We had an similar experience — not with the timing of our food — but with the lack of communication. If management is smart, that waiter will either be gone or trained (as he was just in his second week!).

Aniston hits back O'Reilly's criticism about her artificial insemination comments, saying 'For those who've not yet found their Bill O'Reilly, I'm just glad science has provided a few other option.'
Since Bill O'Reilly has recently shown that he wasn't team Jennifer Aniston after calling her single woman comments "destructive to our society", the actress was not reluctant to give him a few jabs. During an interview with People, the "Friends" star explained the reason why she said that having a kid without a man has become an option.
"Of course, the ideal scenario for parenting is obviously two parents of a mature age. Parenting is one of the hardest jobs on earth," Aniston started. "And, of course, many women dream of finding Prince Charming (with fatherly instincts), but for those who've not yet found their Bill O'Reilly, I'm just glad science has provided a few other options."
The war of words was started after Aniston, who is promoting her new movie "The Switch" about a woman who decides to get pregnant by using a sperm donor, said, during a press conference at the Four Seasons Hotel in Beverly Hills on August 8, "Women are realizing it more and more knowing that they don't have to settle with a man just to have that child."
"Times have changed and that is also what is amazing is that we do have so many options these days, as opposed to our parents' days when you can't have children because you have waited too long," Aniston added at that time. "Love is love and family is what is around you and who is in your immediate sphere."
And as a man, O'Reilly has voiced his concerns about Aniston's single motherhood comments. Beside calling it "destructive", O'Reilly accused Aniston of "diminishing the role of the dad." He went on saying that she "can hire a battery of people to help her, but she cannot hire a dad... Dads bring a psychology to children that is in this society, I believe, under-emphasized."

Night Train - Guns and Roses Tribute
Thursday August 15th
$29 $19
Following in the footsteps of one of music's most illustrious heavy metal acts is a tall order by any means, but when that heavy metal act's implosion still generates buzz a decade after playing its final show, it doesn't make things easy.
But that's exactly the kind of challenge the members of the Guns 'n' Roses cover band Night Train welcome with open arms. Not only are they attempting to emulate the sound of musical legends, they are taking it to the next level by imitating the chart-topper's dress and attire as well.
The Elgin-based band Night Train, who will be performing at bergenPAC on Thursday August 15th , has studied the ins and outs of the original Guns 'n' Roses for years and the members feel confident they live up to their billing.
"I think we're the best G 'n' R cover band out there right now, to tell you the truth," said guitarist Chad "Izzy" Baxter. "From the hair to the clothes - right down to the last detail, we're them."
With dedicated attention to detail, Nigh Train covers the early career of Guns 'n' Roses, playing songs from rare bootleg material, "Appetite for Destruction," "GN' r' Lies," "Use Your Illusion I and II" and even "The Spaghetti Incident?"

NEW YORK (Apr. 1)
Hadassah, the women's Zionist organization of America, was honored yesterday for its sponsorship of Youth Aliya, the child-rescue movement which began in Berlin 35 years ago to save Jewish youngsters from the Nazis by bringing them to Palestine. Mrs. Max Schenk, president of Hadassah, accepted a citation from the International Union for Child Welfare Work at ceremonies held in the Central Synagogue Community House here.
The idea of Youth Aliya originated with Mrs. Recha Freier, the wife of a Berlin rabbi. The project was turned over to Henrietta Szold, founder of Hadassah. That organization has been its principal sponsor ever since. More than 135,000 children from 80 countries have been resettled in what is now Israel. Youth Aliya maintains 77 children's villages there, educational and agricultural institutions, 166 children's houses and 18 centers for teenagers and special schools. The citation lauded Hadassah for "giving freedom and salvation to hundreds of thousands of Jewish children, rescued from the far places of the world and redeemed in Israel."

Imam Musri, sitting in his office in Orlando, about 100 miles south of Gainesville, was convinced that Jones didn't have a choice.
The shoot lasted 45 days, with 11 days at Disney World in Orlando followed by 14 days at Disneyland in Anaheim, California.
Williams did not need to feel around when he reached from his wheelchair to pet Orlando.
Orlando was able to open the passenger door and fall to the ground.
Worth, San Antonio—but also Orlando, Raleigh, Phoenix, and Charlotte.
The little girl stretched her hand out of the window, but Orlando suddenly reared up, and leaped aside.
But it fell to Orlando Cutter, who lived on the farm next to the Grays.
The same passionate determination which seized her when she faced Mazarine with Orlando, possessed her again.
Orlando Cutter usually drove home with her when the class was over.
Orlando being driven from home by his elder brother, also went to the forest of Arden, and was taken under the duke's protection.

Get more done…get more organized…more…more…more.
"It's really quite simple," were the famous last words of my college physics professor.
"Say what you will do, then do what you say."
This is a basic premise of a certain Quality Control system used in industry.
Let's try another tactic to get our daily tasks completed. "I'll make a list and as I do what needs to be done, I'll just cross it off."
Making a to-do list is only half the battle. Following through on it is a much larger hurdle, according to a LinkedIn survey released Tuesday.
Of 6,580 professionals polled around the world, 89 percent of respondents said they could not accomplish all the tasks on their daily to-do lists, largely because of distractions by email, impromptu meetings or phone calls.
What is the solution? You could:
a. Work smarter
b. Rearrange your schedule to accommodate these distractions
c. Complain that there is too much to do
d. Chuck the list
If you have the magical solution, please let me know. I'll put it on the list of things I need to read.
