Mitsubishi's MV Series with cylindrical drive motor is built on the latest technology in machine construction; the X and Y axis ways and drives are directly mounted to a one-piece, T-shaped case casting, providing the most rigid and thermally stable platform driving the table and column independently, according to the company. This style of direct axis mounting removes all squareness and accuracy issues that that come with a stacked table design, providing higher rigidity and smoother movement for more reliable, precise cutting.
A redesigned auto-threader concept delivers improved threading capabilities, with upper rollers that travel with Z-axis, creating a constant distance to the upper guide. This allows nearly 14 inches of annealed/straightened wire length, improving threading reliability on tall parts, submerged threading and rethreading through the gap after a wire break.
A large air gap between the shaft and the forcer in the cylindrical drive minimizes heat output and the effect of metallic shop dust on the system. Other EDMs are built using flat plate linear drives, constructed from iron core magnetic coils on the primary side, and permanent magnets on the secondary side.

Antetomaso '12 wins Grace Hopper 2011 Award
Posted on November 18, 2011
Congratulations to Stephanie Antetomaso '12 on winning a Grace Hopper 2011 Award! Stephanie's poster ("Unsupervised Phoneme Segmentation in Continuous Speech") won First Place in the undergraduate category from the National Conference for Women in Computing.
Here's Stephanie's abstract:
Children rapidly learn the inventory of phonemes used in their native tongues. Computational approaches to learning phoneme boundaries from speech data do not yet reach the same level of human performance. We present an unsupervised algorithm, inspired by approaches to text segmentation, that discretizes continuous speech into a sequence of phonemes. We present empirical results of our method on the TIMIT data set.
Stephanie is a student researcher for Assistant Professor of Computer Science at Wheaton College, Tom Armstrong, who told us that:
Stephanie previously presented this work at the 16th annual Consortium for Computing Sciences in Colleges Northeastern Conference (CCSCNE) where she placed 2nd in a student poster contest. She also presented our paper at the IEEE International Conference on Development and Learning and on Epigenetic Robotics in Germany. In Computer Science, conferences are for archival, peer-reviewed work where attendance and participation is mandatory for paper publishing.
Congratulations, Stephanie!

Dirty Words You Can Say on Television
Filed Under Current Events | Leave a Comment
The FCC is famous for levying heavy fines for stations putting anything on the air that is remotely outside of their "decency" guidelines, but they have recently approved a television station on Maui with call letters that — well, let's just say, is a homonym that if spoken will get you slapped to death at the ladies auxiliary luncheon.
I give you the new FCC-approved television station, KUNT-TV.
This poses couple of questions: 1) How much should the FCC fine itself for this vulgar travesty? And 2) How long before the station's t-shirt sales eclipse their on-air advertising revenue?

Gold has been pulverized lately, and gold stocks have been public enemy #1. This is usually the case at a major bottom, but there is one gold stock that apparently isn't aware of the big weakness in all things gold, even though, of all gold stocks, you would think it would have the most weakness.
Gold Reserve (GRZ) of Spokane Washington is a micro-cap miner that could be used as a prime instructional example to new investors of foolish risk to be avoided at all costs in case of a sector downturn. It exhibits nearly all of the fool's risk traits. All of its earnings are future speculation; the company hasn't so much as turned a dime of profit. They don't have a wide, geographically diversified portfolio of properties. And to top it off, their one major play is in the back yard of America's major anti-business maniacal dictator - not Barack Obama, as some of you Republicans may have thought, but Hugo Chavez.
Venezuela's Chavez has, of course, been a pest for US business in the past with his oil policies. But he was a real pest to GRZ in May of 2008, when, just as Gold Reserve had invested over $300 million to get their Brisas Project to the point of construction, he issued a declaration nationalizing this gold project in Venezuela. Since then, in August, 2011, Chavez has declared the entire gold mining industry operating in his country to be nationalized. The reason he gave was to prevent illegal mining and to build Venezuela's gold reserves. He has been calling home all his gold reserves being held in vaults around the world. He doesn't want those assets frozen if his global behavior is frowned upon. His behavior has put no less than 17 cases before the World Bank's International Center for Settlement of Investment Disputes, many of which are mining related, with GRZ alone demanding some $2.1 billion in damages.
With these monstrous problems, you would think that GRZ would be leading the loser board in the gold stock smack-down this year with technical damage galore. But if you look at its condition, you see this:
(click on image to enlarge)
It is the picture of technical strength with a 37% gain YTD - better than Apple!
What's going on here? The thing that really stands out to me is the strong-handed ownership of this stock in the face of the sharp sell down of anything gold related. This quiet price action versus quick triggered selling in the general market often means a stubborn portion of share ownership left over from high volume selling that leaves only upside volatility for the future. After all, the seizure of the company's gold is really old news.
Have all the sellers simply left, or do the present shareholders know something the rest of us don't ? I don't know how the case with the World Bank will turn out, but the strong hands are usually attached to the smart brains - they're usually right. If we're at the bottom of the down move in the gold stocks with a new flood of buyers emerging, this small stock could climb very well.
The patient holders of this stock may be thinking that the company has over 8 million ounces of gold in the ground (their web site states 10.2 million ounces) and if you assume a $1600 gold price the next few years and an $800 cash cost for getting it out, you have a gross profit over 30 times the current market cap. They may be willing to wait out the Chavez government. But if he is as long lived as his buddy Castro in Cuba, that could be a long wait.
Disclosure: I am long GRZ.

Most of the furniture in our home has either been purchased from a garage sale, been handed down to us, or has *ahem* been trash picked. Yes, we're dumpster divers. We've picked up some really wonderful pieces of furniture this way, and all that is needed is a little tender loving care to turn someone else's trash into a treasure.
With wood furniture, often all that is needed is some good old fashion polish. Here's a simple, easy-to-make recipe that I use to make furniture polish. Keep in mind that this is for occasional use only, since it contains beeswax which can build up on furniture if used too often.
PAID ENDORSEMENT DISCLOSURE: In order for me to support my blogging activities, I may receive monetary compensation or other types of remuneration for my endorsement, recommendation, testimonial and/or link to any products or services from this blog.
Homemade Furniture Polish
- 1 Tablespoon grated beeswax
- 3 Tablespoons coconut oil
Melt the beeswax in a small glass canning jar which is sitting in a pot of water over low heat. Once the wax melts, stir in the coconut oil and remove the jar from the warm water. Allow to cool. Then use a clean cloth to rub the polish onto your wood furniture. Allow this to sit for a few minutes. Using another clean cloth, buff the furniture until all residue is removed. The results are beautiful!
What great pieces of furniture have you trashed picked? What did you do to restore the furniture?

For me best choice is SDC microphone (pencil type) about 40-50 cm above instrument. I use Neumann KM 140, but I had good results also with Octava and Rode microphones. Try to avoid cheap metallic sounding ones. Select a good room for recording, not concerete with lot of ambience nor too dry like vocal booth. Wooden rooms with some fabric/textile elements are the best.
Great piece JumaStudios! Lovely played as well Furthermore, I agree with FXprosound's post. I have heard great things about the (modded) Octava mics, but sadly haven't had any experience with them. The Rode mic's are lovely bright, and could work for you in this case. Good luck!
Thanks a lot guys…this was recorded with a nt1 rode condenser.definitely need to check the ones you mentioned
Oups,my bad…so the microphone I used in the above track is Rode NT2-A
The NT2-a is a microphone I use occasionally. For the money it's a great mic and really hard to beat!
Do you work with Cubase, or with which DAW?
I bet you made the following mistake: You Inserted a reverb in you Violin channel. But this doesn't sound good, because you have a (nice!!!!) violin recording which is smono. Now you insert a reverb and this HAS to be stereo, otherwise it sounds like a tin can…. you have to us e the sends to puit reverb on your tracks, because there you generate stereo returns and the reverb (same plugin but stereo) sounds wunderful !!
Mat mate, helpful as always! Thats one great piece of info! Hope I wont bother you too much if I will ask you some more details bout that on a private message. Cheers!
No problem, your welcom just ask, or if it get's too bad you have to start buying my songs, hahaha
but maybe it's more helpful if you ask it in the board, so others can learn too.
Heheee already sent you a private but feel free to answer here mate

PIERCE-L ArchivesArchiver > PIERCE > 2000-12 > 0976838847
From: Warren Pearce <>
Subject: [PIERCE-L] John Pearce, The Mason 1 of 4
Date: Thu, 14 Dec 2000 17:07:27 -0700
What follows is 4 messages containing a brochure I got on John Pearce from
a newly met cousin.
What's interesting is how I got it. At my company's Christmas party, one
of my co-workers introduced his wife and she said she was a Pearce, spelled
my way. Then, on top of that, she said that she lived in Clarendon Arkansas
as a child. Well, that's where my father grew up. One way to describe
Clarendon is that it isn't big enough to have a stop light - even today!!
Her father was a doctor and my Aunt remembers visiting him back in the
1940s. WOW
Here is the first part of the brochure. Some of the numbering seems a bit odd.
John Pearce of Prudence Island and
Some of his Descendants
by HENRY W. HARDON
The origin of the name Pearce and its variants Peirce, Pierce, Piers,
Piercy, Pearse, Percy, is the Christian name Peter in its Latin form
Petrus. The name occurs widely in England.
There is an unconfirmed family tradition that John Pearce, with whom the
following account begins, came in 1660 at the age of 25 years from Wales to
Boston with two brothers and his parents and that his father, John, fell
down a hatchway of the vessel after it reached Boston and sustained
injuries from which he died.
The sources of information about the first three generations are, unless
otherwise noted, Austin's Genealogical Dictionary of Rhode Island, p. 146,
and an article entitled "Some Descendants of John Pearce (mason) of
Portsmouth, R. I." by Gen. T. L. Casey, printed in the Magazine of New
England History, vol. i, pp. 129 et seq. Where these accounts differ I have
followed Austin.
7 Day Street, New York. Henry W. Hardon
1. JOHN PEARCE, of Prudence Island in Portsmouth, R. I., 1660, mason,
freeman of Portsmouth, 1666, was born probably in England or Wales about
1632 and died on Prudence Island leaving a will dated 23 Sept. 1689, proved
26 Apr. 1692. He had a wife Mary who died in 1711 leaving a will dated 17
Sept. 1711, proved 8 Oct. 1711.
He bequeathed a negro each to his children Daniel and Mary and his widow

Children b. at Prudence Island:
1. John, b. ab. 1682.
2. Francis, b. ab. 1684.
3, Preserved, b. ab. 1686. For an account of his children and
grandchildren see Mag. of N. E. Hist. vol. I, p. 131.
2. DANIEL 2 PEARCE (John 1), of Prudence Island and North Kingstown,
R.I., 1723, butcher, freeman, 1692, deputy nine times beginning in 1698, J.
P., born about 1662; died in 1731; married, first, a wife whose name is not
found, and, secondly, 13 Dec. 1703 ELIZABETH TUCKER, who died in 1728.
Children by first wife, born on Prudence Island:
i. DANIEL 3, of Prudence Island, and North Kingstown, R. I., 1737,
deputy, 1732-3, b. ab. 1684; d. ab. 1758; m. in Oct. 1708 PATIENCE HILL,
dau. of Jonathan. For an account of his children and grandchildren, see
Mag. of N. E. Hist., vol. i, p. 134.
ii. MARGARET, b. ab. 1686; m. (1) in 1710 EPHRAIM SMITH, s. of Jeremiah
and Mary (Gereardy), b. ab. 1680; d. in Oct. 1722; m. (2) 4 Jan. 1725

iii. MARY, b. ab. 1689; m. in 1715 JOHN MOSS.
iv. JOHN, of Prudence Island, farmer, b. ab. 1691; d. 22 June 1744; m.

Reviews for Hamburger Corn Bread Casserole
Average Rating
"We had this for supper tonight along with a chopped salad. We thought it was delicious. We liked that there was more "filling" than cornbread.After reading the reviews, I decided to use a corn bread mix. I chose Hodgson Mill Whole Grain Corn Meal & Wheat Flour Cornbread Mix.I didn't have an 11x7 pan so I used my Corning 8x8 deep dish casserole. It worked find, but I had to bake it for 24 minutes. It's a keeper!"
"easy, peasy recipe. I use frozen, precooked ground turkey (I buy 3 lbs at a time & cook on weekends, freeze, ready to use). I also add a can of hominy, undrained. Once bean/meat mixture comes to boil, I add 1 tsp cornstarch to thicken. I, too, use Marie Callendar's corn bread mix. Great for cold days!"
"Taste was very good. I suggest draining the tomatoes before adding to meat mixture."
"This recipe was eatable but no big wow factor. Won't be making this again!"
"I love this recipe. I take a few shortcuts: chunky salsa instead of canned tomatoes; a favorite pepper spice mix (doubled) instead of just chili; and Marie Callendar's cornbread mix instead of homemade. My fiance likes it so much he immediately boxes up the leftovers to take with him to work the next day."
"Delicious. I also added frozen spinach."
"Delicious. I used fire roasted tomatoes and added thawed bell pepper and onions (a mix purchased frozen from store) into the Jiffy cornmeal mix. A Keeper!"
"The topping is the key. The filling needs some zing for the ones that like spicy. Two kinds of peppers, celery, Chile beans. garlic, ketchup, little brown sugar, bit of brown mustard, if there's a little to much liquid dust with corn starch to thicken. Double the topping, cook filling in a dutch oven, spread the doubled topping over the hot filling and bake as directed about 13-14 min. You have your self a southern Tex Mex dish, browned around the edges crisp topping,,,,I will make again"
"quick and easy! My husband loved this casserole. It was last minute and I didn't have all the ingredients. I used Bush's chili Beans instead of Ranch Style Beans and omitted the chili powder. I also used Jiffy Corn Muffin mix for the topping. Next time I will sprinkle on shredded cheese before adding the topping."
"Really enjoyed this dish. The perfect amount for 2 people; with a salad we had two meals easily. I could not find ranch-stlye beans so I had to substitute with southern stlye pinto beans. Any help on where to buy them in the North!?"
"What a hit! Kids and husband loved it."
"It was very good"
"Did anyone else substitute a packet of cornbread mix? Result was scrumptious."
"I , and my family enjoy this everytime I make it. I use 1 can of whole kernal corn and instead of the pinto beans, I use kidney beans, drained, and a can of stewed tomatoes...just a litte different from this recipe. I also, serve mashed potatoes with this and it is really a hit!"
"love this one, I use ranch-style beans with jalopeno peppers in it. and put cheese on the top of the corn bread. Yummee!"
"This recipe is very good. It was much easier to make than other receipes of this type (e.g., corn bread topped beef and seasonings).However, I did increase the chili powder and worchestshire sauce to 1 TBSP. each instead of 1 tsp. each, since we like things a little more spicy. Next time I make it, I will probably use tomatoes w/ green chilies."
"This is so good! I made this last night. I also like that you can spice it up if you want to. I used diced tomatoes with green chilies and I added some sliced green onion, cayenne pepper and garlic powder to the cornbread mixture. Just as good the next day for lunch too."

Preview of Grant Morrison & Sean Murphy's 'Joe The Barbarian'
It's too early to say much about Grant Morrison and Sean Murphy's upcoming three issue mini-series from Vertigo except that the two preview pages that popped up today on Vertigo's Graphic Content blog look pretty darn cool. After all, this sneaky preview is pretty much the first thing we've heard about the series, which is slated to drop this January.
The title evokes images of another proud barbarian (no, not Barack – Conan), but judging by the black and white pages of a young boy coming home from school to a loft full of action figures, I'm guessing the title is perhaps more symbolic than literal. Of course, given Morrison's imaginative takes on "Animal Man," his "Seven Soldiers" series and his work on last summer's "Final Crisis," readers pretty much unanimously understand that this could all change in the space of three panels…or less.
Story speculation aside, Murphy's black and white art sets a pretty clear tone and from what we can see, the titular character has fine taste in toys. Is that a Gundam on that shelf?

Tim Gunn on Taylor Momsen: 'What a Diva!'
Sorry, Taylor Momsen; you might have a friend in Penn Badgley, but as far as Tim Gunn is concerned, you are not making it work.
The Project Runway mentor recently filmed a guest spot for Gossip Girl, and he tells E! Online that the behavior that Momsen, 17, exhibited on set worries him:
"What a diva! She was pathetic, she couldn't remember her lines, and she didn't even have that many. I thought to myself 'why are we all being held hostage by this brat?'"
Momsen's biggest transgression, as far as Gunn is concerned? Her incessant BlackBerry use, which he opines might be affecting her ability to do important actress stuff such as remembering her lines and getting along with the crew:
"I'd say, 'You know young lady, there are hundreds of thousands of girls who are just as attractive and even smarter than you. Why are you acting like this show is a huge burden on you?' She was on her phone during every break, I wanted to tell her, 'If you weren't on your BlackBerry, you can retain this stuff.' I learned from teaching to stick with the topic, I don't get involved in character appraisals. I'd just ask her, 'Do you want to share with me why you're always on your phone?' At one point the director leaned in and whispered to me, 'this is day in, day out, my life.' She annoyed the entire crew."
Perhaps the tart-tongued fashion guru should just be happy that Momsen busied herself with her BlackBerry on set, and not other electronic gadgets that she seems to be fond of.
What do you think? Is Momsen truly a terror to work with, or is Gunn pouring on the drama? Share your thoughts in the comments section.

Cherry On CBC Explains His "Redneck Town" Comment On ESPN
Published May 13, 2008
|Cherry Explains His "Redneck
Town" Comment On ESPN
CHERRY PICKER: YAHOO SPORTS' Greg Wyshynski wrote Cherry during his Sunday spot "criticized the Mellon Arena's ice crew for helping to make" a disallowed Penguins goal inconclusive during Game Two of the team's Eastern Conference Finals series against the Flyers. Cherry: "When did they paint the goal line across there? 1992?" But Wyshynski noted when the clip was uploaded to ESPN.com yesterday, "that section wasn't included" (SPORTS.YAHOO.com, 5/12). Gross said that Cherry's remark was "made to ESPN's 'SportsCenter' as an aside … after his spot was over. That's why it didn't appear online" (GLOBE & MAIL, 5/13).
OUTSPOKEN : AOL SPORTS' Kevin Schultz writes of the redneck comment, "Like him or loathe him, hockey fans that are familiar with Cherry know that this type of talk is nothing new from him. The question is -- did ESPN?" (SPORTS.AOL.com, 5/10). In Michigan, Pat Caputo wrote, "What Cherry does at times borders on bigotry. It's his dark side. He can't seem to fawn over 'Good, old Canadian boys,' without taking cheap shots at European players in the process." It makes Cherry a "double-edged sword. It's wonderful that he is a dinosaur living in the days of the Original Six." However, it is "deplorable the way Cherry strikes out at a change that has made the game far more skilled than back when Cherry reached the NHL as a player" (OAKLAND PRESS, 5/12)

Fayette man killed in tractor accident
The owner of a former Fayette County automobile dealership and father-in-law of a 1950s and 1960s teen idol died of injuries suffered in a tractor accident, according to state police.
Richard Patrick, 81, of Bell Drive, Dunbar Township, died on Friday of blunt-force trauma injuries suffered in a rollover accident involving a tractor, according to the Allegheny County Medical Examiner's Office.
Patrick was using a tractor to mow grass on his property when it rolled down an embankment at 6:52 p.m. Friday, state police at Uniontown said. He died in UPMC Presbyterian in Pittsburgh, police said.
Patrick was the owner of the former Richard Chevrolet on University Drive in Dunbar Township.
The building is now owned by Morrell Volunteer Fire Department, according to county tax records.
Patrick's daughter, former Miss Pennsylvania-USA Andrea Lynn Patrick, married late 1950s and early 1960s teen idol Fabian Anthony Forte in September 1998 at Nemacolin Woodlands Resort & Spa in Wharton. The two met in California in 1991, where Fabian was a movie producer and sometimes actor and Andrea Patrick ran a talent agency that she still owns today.

Neighbors Helping Neighbors Yesterday and Today
No man, woman or child should ever be hungry. Unfortunately in Worcester, Massachusetts that is not the case. Today an increasing number of the inner city's homeless, poor and marginalized people are seeking help from St. John's Food for the Poor Program at 44 Temple Street in the heart of Worcester, Massachusetts.
For 177 years, St. John's Church has lived out its mission by providing sustenance and dignity to anyone who comes to their doors. Today, St. John's Food Pantry is the only place in the city where the hungry can receive a hot breakfast. However, the one-stove kitchen and dining area located beneath St. John's can no longer accommodate the volume of people who need food. We need more space.
Expanding St. John's Food for the Poor Program in the Future
St. John's Church is working to build a new soup kitchen and FREE food pantry on the property adjacent to the church and rectory.
Presently, we are able to serve a hot, nutritious breakfast to 125+ people a day, five days a week (which translates to 32,500+ annually).
Because of the increased need, it is our goal to serve 250 people per day, or 65,000 annually. Each year the FREE food pantry distributes approximately 10,400 "to-go" packages, and yet there is always a shortage.
After the construction is complete, the 5,500-square foot building will help St. John's accommodate the increased number of neighbors—elderly, individuals, and families with children—who are in need. The pastor of St. John's, Father Madden, and the volunteers believe that there is always more to be done in the community, particularly for the children. This is why, in its off-hours, the building will also be host to a variety of classes—including English as a Second Language and Family Literacy. Also, an expanded outreach visiting program will bring comfort to shut-in neighbors who are too often forgotten, especially during illness and the holidays.
No man, woman, or child should ever be hungry.

The "Grey's Anatomy" actress filmed a few scenes on her own, then going through wardrobe change asshe teamed up for what appeared to be the wedding scene with co-star Ashton Kutcher.
Always up for a night of fabulous fun, Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore were spotted at the Bally and Vanity Fair Hollywood Domino Game Night at Andaz last night (February 20).
The "Punk'd" stud and his "Charlie's Angels" wife looked to be having a marvelous time schmoozing with party guests while simultaneously benefiting the Art of Elysium.

"Philip saith unto him, Lord, shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us. Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father? Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works. Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works' sake." (John 14:8-11)
Do you ever look up at the sky and just wish you could see God? How many human beings living today have ever seen God? How many of us can say exactly what He really looks like? How many of us can say we have ever sat on His lap or talked to Him face-to-face or walked with Him on a road or watched Him feed crowds of people with a miracle meal? How many of us have ever seen God cry or bleed or eat or take off His shoes or be born?
Since God the Father is a spiritual being, He does not have a body in the same sense that people have a body. But Jesus is also God, and He came to Earth to be born in the form of a human being. Unlike spiritual beings, human beings are visible (able to be seen with human eyes).
The people who lived in Jesus' time had the opportunity to "see" God with their own eyes. Mary and Joseph saw Jesus' birth, and the shepherds were there to visit Jesus as a newborn infant. Jesus' friends and disciples had all kinds of chances to see Him live, to see how He responded to what happened around Him, to see what He could do for people, and to see how good and great He really was. Many people were watching Jesus during His last days, and both unbelievers and believers alike were amazed at His words and actions. He lived a sinless life, was crucified unjustly, and rose again from the grave! Only God could have done what Jesus did, and Jesus was God incarnate (God in the flesh, God in person). Jesus' life on Earth showed everyone the things that God the Father wanted to show about Himself. God told us about Himself in the written Word, and He showed us about Himself in the Living Word: Jesus Christ.
None of us alive today have ever gotten to see Jesus "in person," either, because He already ascended (went back up) into heaven to be with God the Father again. But it is because of what Jesus did – His perfect life, His sacrificial death, and His glorious resurrection – that we can one day "see" God ourselves. Jesus made it possible for people who trust in Him to have spiritual life! And those of us alive today may not get to meet Jesus in person until eternity, but we have the ability to read about Him and to learn more about God the Father through the story of Jesus' life and His words. Through Jesus, you might not be able to look up into the sky and "see" God with your own two eyes right now. But you can know more of what God the Father is really like because of Jesus' life, and you can look up into the sky and talk to God the Father because of what Jesus has already done.
If we know Jesus, we can know God the Father through Him.
My Response: » Do I really KNOW Jesus and God the Father, or do I just know lots of things ABOUT them? » How can I keep on learning more and more about God the Father? » Because of Jesus, am I now able to have a relationship with God the Father?
Elohim Shephtim Ba'arets – The God Who Judges
Psalm 58:11 – "So that a man shall say, Verily there is a reward for the righteous: verily he is a God that judgeth in the earth."
Yes. 2 Corinthians 3:17 – "Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty."
"Gospel" means "good news" and is used to describe the good news that Jesus Christ came to Earth as 100% God and 100% Man to live a perfect life, die a sacrificial death, and rise again for God's glory and for the redemption of anyone who will believe on Him. The Gospel sums up the Christian doctrines (teachings) about how Jesus Christ offers salvation from sin and sin's consequences. It is good news that sinners can repent and believe in Jesus Christ by grace through faith! Romans 10:13-15 – "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher? And how shall they preach, except they be sent? As it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things."

It has been two years since the reckless behavior of big banks and Wall Street CEOs dragged the American economy to the brink of collapse, costing millions of Americans their jobs, homes and life savings. While the economy is rebounding, there is still work to be done to ensure we have a system that puts Americans' homes and retirement before Wall Street bonuses, saves and creates jobs, and prevents another financial crisis and future bailouts. That is why Senate Democrats have brought forward historic reform legislation that would protect American consumers, investors and businesses.
A new report by the Pew Financial Reform Project[1] serves as a reminder of the costs of the financial crisis to American families and illustrates exactly why Senate Democrats are fighting for reform. Senate Republicans, however, have spent the last three weeks scheming to water down legislation on behalf of big banks and Wall Street CEOs.
Republicans seem to have forgotten the devastation caused by the financial crisis:
- $100,000 – The cost to the typical American family in combined losses from declining stock and home values.
- $360 billion – The estimated loss in wages due to slower economic growth from October 2008 through December 2009 – $3,250 on average per U.S. household.
- 5.5 million – The number of additionaljobs lost due to slower economic growth during the financial crisis, compared to the September 2008 CBO predictions.
- $3.4 trillion – Thetotal loss in real estate wealth from July 2008 through March 2009 – roughly $30,300 per U.S. household.
- 500,000 – The additional number of homes foreclosed upon during the acute phase of the financial crisis.
- $7.4 trillion – The total loss in stock wealth from July 2008 through March 2009 – more than $66,000 per U.S. household.
- 6.4 percent – The decline in GDP in the first quarter of 2009 – combined with the last quarter of 2008, this marks the worst six months for economic growth since 1958.

As a newly minted salesperson, I flew the Pan Am shuttle to Boston a million times. Ticket book in hand, I'd run through the terminal getting to the gate just in time to jump on the plane.
Focused on my client meetings, and trying not to draw the ire of my relentless sales manager, I never saw anything around me. Today, Scouting New York has shown me what I, and many other road warriors have missed, an incredible tribute to the Golden Age of Air Travel, the Marine Air Terminal at LaGuardia.
Some background with the photographic stylings of KLAD's favorite location scout/blogger, Nick Carr
From Wikipedia:
The Marine Air Terminal at LaGuardia Airport in New York City remains the only active airport terminal dating from the first generation of passenger travel in the United States
—the "Golden age of the flying boat." Originally built to handle sea planes, the Marine Air Terminal, an Art Deco building designed in 1939 by William Delano of the firm Delano & Aldrich, consists of a central circular core of two stories with an attic from which a rectangular entrance pavilion and two symmetrically opposed one-story wings project.
Inside the terminal hangs "Flight," a mural measuring 12 feet (3.7 m) in height and 237 feet (72 m) in length, the largest mural created as part of the Great Depression-era Works Projects Administration (WPA).[2]Completed by James Brooks in 1940, "Flight" depicts the history of man's involvement with flight. The mural was painted over without explanation by the Port Authority of New York & New Jersey in the 1950s, possibly because some saw left-wing symbolism in it.[3] After an extensive restoration project headed by aviation historian Geoffrey Arend, the mural was rededicated on September 18, 1980.[4]
Pan American Airways' Yankee Clipper, a Boeing 314, made its first flight across the mid-Atlantic on March 26, 1939.
The terminal has been listed in the National Register of Historic Places since 1982.
I'm adding some of Nick's photos of the magic details found at the terminal.
For more on the Marine Air Terminal, and other treasures to discover at LaGuardia, please visit Scouting NY.
Bon Voyage!

If you want to independently write CoffeeScript (i.e. outside of Rails or another framework that automatically supports CoffeeScript) you'll need to install a CoffeeScript compiler.
The standard compiler used by the community is the Node.js package "coffee-script". You can use it to launch an interactive CoffeeScript session or compile CoffeeScript source files to JavaScript. It also provides tools allowing you to dig in and analyze the source code.
Here are the steps to get that up and running on Mac OS X. Sorry Windows and Linux folks, I don't have tutorials written for those platforms yet. But your steps will essentially be: 1) install Node.js, 2) use npm to install coffee-script.
Step 1: Install Homebrew
Homebrew makes installing compiled from source software super easy on the Mac. Use it.
These official Homebrew installation instructions will get you setup in no time.
Step 2: Install Node.js
This one is super easy, just run the following command after you've installed Homebrew.
Step 3: Install npm
Step 4: Install coffee-script
-g flag says to install the package globally. The coffee-script package installs some executable scripts so installing it globally will make running them easier.
After that last command you should now have
coffee available as a command. You can test that by running
coffee -v:
1 2
At this point the official CoffeeScript documentation is well worth a perusal if you haven't seen it already.
Step 5: Install the TextMate Bundle
You do use TextMate, right? Ok good. Open the terminal and run the following commands.
1 2 3 4
If you get the error
coffee: command not found when trying to compile CoffeeScript in TextMate you just need to add "/usr/local/bin" to the TextMate path. Like this:
Step 6: Fix "coffee: command not found" TextMate Bundle error
- Open TextMate
- TextMate > Preferences
- Click the "Advanced" tab
- Click "Shell Variables"
- Find the "PATH" variable and double click its value
- Append
At that point your CoffeeScript bundle should behave. No need for a restart.
Next Time
Alright! You've got a local CoffeeScript environment to play with. Go you!
Next post we'll actually do something with CoffeeScript, and I'll show you a technique for quickly incorporating CoffeeScript into a development project.

One of the nice things about the Financial Times is that you have really interesting conversations in the corridors. Yesterday I got chatting to James Kynge, our former Beijing bureau chief, who now edits the newsletter, "China Confidential". James said that he thinks that political atmosphere inside China feels more unstable than for many years. He cited many little pieces of evidence. But the one the appealed to me most was the story of the "Happy Girls" talent show. Read more

Caramelized Onion Sourdough Biscuits from KAF
Recipe by Bonnie G 2
I love the tanginess of sourdough AND the sweeness of caramelized onion just as King Arthur Flour described thes so knew when I saw this recipe I am sure to love it so need to post so I'll have it when I'm ready.
Top Review by DAR Lady
I've made these biscuits and they're great! Only difference was the first time I made them they were too dry as I keep my sourdough starter very thick. Soooo, now when I make them I add enough buttermilk to the mixture to give me the consistency I need. I love these things with my eggs for breakfast.They are so light and fluffy with the combination of the starter AND the baking powder. DAR lady

View Berlin & Stuttgart on CoachHall's travel map.
Hi everyone! Sorry for the delay in my post...I have been pretty busy. Time to play catch up on all I have been up too in the last 4 weeks!
Berlin was a great city to visit, it was so full of history. Mostly dark German history but also full of dark Russian history post ww2. It was fairly late when we arrived there. As we found a hostel for the night & as you know a college kid always is hungry so we grabbed some grub before we wandered around. It didn't take us long till we found a protest which we tried steering clear of but soon found ourselves surrounded by a few thousand cops in riot gear so we decided the capital will have to wait till the next day lol. The protest was something about immigrants & there rights in Germany or something.
We saw all the famous land marks like Brandenburge gate, the Victory tower, the Berlin wall, lots of memorials & last was my favorite part of the trip. About 200 km out of Berlin sits the first concentration camp made by Hitler & this was also the head of all the concentration camps along with the SS school. The SS school is used today as the police training school as it over looks the camp to remind them of there mistakes & to help it from happening again. The camp tour I took showed me a different approach on how & why the camps were built. As my classes before just displayed them as huge slaughtering camps but the truth as I found out was much more. These camps didn't mean certain death for everyone who when to them. Most where there for talking back to Hitler and his movement, Hitler would crush them mentally in the camps so they would not speak against him. Some more interesting facts where the experiments on the prisoners. They had test from pain killers to energy shots being experimented on them to make it better for the German soldiers. They also had out side company's pay to test products there, like Adidas used the camp to test boots & sneaker products to sell. There is a lot more but you will have to look at the pictures and ask me questions.

Domestic violence victims and their advocates have done incredible work to stem the tide of spousal abuse. Most of this abuse takes the form of men's violence against women – still, supportive male allies have always been sought and welcomed by the battered women's movement. These male allies have been asked to believe battered women, support them and support the movement. General Petraeus and Allen seem to have done just that by writing letters in support of Natalie Khawam.

Members of First Congregational Church of Redlands recently prepared dinner for families staying at the Ronald McDonald House in Loma Linda.
Mission work is important to the church, and this was a hands-on way to help people in the local community.
The idea was launched when Lisa Soria saw a newspaper article about ways to volunteer at the Ronald McDonald House.
A local real-estate agent wanted to cook monthly dinners using his portable grill and encouraged other individuals and groups to prepare meals for the families at the Ronald McDonald House.
Soria said, "I thought this would be a project to combine my love of cooking and volunteering in one project."
When the Missions Committee at the church agreed the activity would fit their vision of community service, Soria began planning the menu and gathering volunteers.
On a recent Friday afternoon, six church members - Soria, her daughter Natalie, Ed Jennings- Skeen and his wife, Cerise, Teri Francis and Christine Coates - met at the Ronald McDonald House kitchen and made chili, cornbread, vegetables and cranberry cheesecake bars for about 25 families.
"The staff was wonderful to work with," Soria said. "Their love and respect for the families staying there was evident. We would love to return and do it again."
Ed Jennings-Skeen is a professional chef who brought his own knives and the recipe and ingredients for the dessert. His experience with cooking for a crowd helped keep things moving, according to Soria.
The Loma Linda Ronald McDonald House provides a home away from home for families whose children are receiving medical treatment at Loma Linda University Children's Hospital or other area hospitals.
Gifts, donations, grants and volunteers support the work of the house.
For information on ways the public can help, visit LLRMH.org or contact the volunteer coordinator, Stephanie Schmitz, at 909-558-8344.

THE HUN'S OVERFLOW'cause there's never enough
Latest update: Tuesday, June 06
The Hun's Yellow Pages is a pretty popular site with both surfers and people who build galleries. Many webmasters submit their galleries. So many that there's almost too much. In the past quality galleries got deleted 'cause so many people submitted. Some submitted galleries with a topic that was already submitted a couple of times. The listings on the Yellow Pages have to be as varied as possible though. In the past that meant deletion of galleries, waste of hard work, and witholding of quality galleries from the visitors of the Yellow Pages. Not anymore though. Now there's The Hun's Overflow. 'cause there's never enough. Happy Hunning!!

Some credit repair work companies really can assist you with credit repair work regardless of the fact that others offer credit repair work a discredit due to their shady operations and suspect practices. The only method to repair credit is to be more responsible with your charge account. How much money have you designated in settling your bills? Making use of a software application means you do not have to deal converse with specialists about your credit report.
In fact, the Federal Trade Commission recently introduced that they had forced the closure of a number of companies and businesses that made such outrageous claims about credit repair with equally outrageous timeframes for making that happen. Nowadays, increasingly more lenders are taking their method a notch additionally with suits that occur against consumers for not paying on their unsecured credit owed like those of balances on charge card. Agencies that are scams will attempt to keep you off balance by continuously talking without offering you any realities. Many people do not understand that the main function of the credit reporting agencies is to reduce danger for lenders.
Can the provider offer practically no description involving your rights? If there are any discrepancies found in the credit report, the customer is entitled to dispute the errors that unjustly damage their monetary healthiness and credit worthiness. There might be a number of individuals with the same name as yours. Performing on your behalf, the credit-report repair work service obtains your credit report, and (using the reasonable credit reporting act and planned techniques) challenges any products that you suggest are incorrect.
Debt consolidation loans are suggested just for those individuals who do not have a great credit rating and credit report so that they will have the capability to repair their credit and make their credit report go higher on their credit report. Understand that if you ID or SSN has been accessed and made use of, almost all elements of your identity would be infringed. It is possible to see enhancements in your credit report in less than 90 days.
Car car dealerships, and any other kind of company that handles financing can also be ideal sources of recommendations, however you should approach them in the correct manner. Rest ensured, it can be done, and in all probability an individual can do it better than a company would. The first thing that you need to do is get a copy of your credit report from the concerned agencies like Experian, TransUnion, and Equifax.

Economic revitalization minister Akira Amari revealed Sunday that he plans to open talks with national labor and management representatives on how to convince companies to raise wages.
Amari said on a TV program that improved corporate earnings resulting from "Abenomics," the moniker for the yen-weakening, deflation-busting plans of Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, could lead to a hike in base salaries and regular wage increases. He said some companies had gone as far as increasing bonus payments.
While sales of luxury cars and jewelry have started expanding on the back of a recent rally in stock prices, the government believes it necessary to raise wages in order to achieve a full-fledged recovery in consumption.
Amari told reporters later that he hopes the proposed three-way talks will also serve as a venue for discussions on employment system reforms, saying that it would be desirable if problems facing management are discussed frankly so that a consensus will be reached.
The economic revitalization minister said he is currently coordinating with Abe on the details. In February, Abe asked business leaders to increase wages but they remained reluctant.
Amari also said that the government is considering drafting measures to further spur corporate capital spending, indicating that specifics will be announced by Abe in early June together with other additional steps that will form a core part of the government's new growth strategy.

O'Donnel and Malawi Initiative Team Up for K.I.N.D
MSNBC's Lawrence O'Donnell, host of 'The Last Word with Lawrence O'Donnell' announced a partnership today with the U.S. Fund for UNICEF to provide desks to Malawi schools.
O'Donnell went to Malawi this summer and obtained desks for one classroom. He then developed a plan with UNICEF to help continue to supply desks to Malawi classrooms through a fundraising drive on his show. The Malawian education system is plagued by several factors, including: the lack of classrooms and overcrowded classrooms, a shortage of qualified teachers and a profound scarcity of teaching and learning materials, including school furniture. The scarcity of furniture and supplies has severely impeded Malawi's educational system by decreasing the participation of children in school. In most Malawi classrooms children sit on the floor because most classrooms have no chairs and desks.
"There is a major education crisis in Malawi and after seeing the conditions firsthand, I am compelled to try to help. Malawi schoolchildren endure terrible classroom conditions. With this campaign, I hope to help bring them the basics for a good learning environment," said O'Donnell.
This unique partnership between MSNBC and the U.S. Fund will specifically target the latter, by providing 172 schools with desks in four of Malawi's priority districts: Blantyre Rural, Dedza, Kasungu, and Lilongwe Rural East & West. The success of the MSNBC and U.S. Fund partnership will ensure that these 172 schools are well equipped, providing a safe and stimulating learning environment for deserving Malawian children.
In Sub-Saharan Africa alone, approximately 45 million children do not go to school and only 20 percent of children that do attend have access to furniture.
"K.I.N.D.: Kids in Need of Desks" by the numbers:
- 46,000 desks will be available to 224,000 Malawian students
- Each desk provides seating for two children
- The total cost of the program per child is $24
"A small donation to this campaign will help lift the Malawi economy and life students off the floor and just maybe turn an unreachable student into a great student could do great things," added O'Donnell.

Trib Cup: Montour boys volleyball team hoping to overcome slow start
The Montour boys volleyball team learned early on this season wins will not come easy.
The Spartans (1-2 in Section 1-AA) finished fourth in Class AA last season after losing in the WPIAL semifinals and consolation finals.
But as they've found out, a return to the playoffs is not a given.
Coach Brendon Aleski is hoping a stinging, 3-2 loss to Beaver County Christian on Tuesday can right the ship.
"A loss like this can kind of turn your season and can go one of two ways," the 12th-year coach said. "You can give up and stop working hard and throw in the towel, but I can say I'm confident for us it'll be a wake-up call, and we'll get focused."
Despite the unexpected early-season struggles, the Spartans' boys volleyball team is a main contributor to Montour's Class AAA seventh-place standing for the Trib Total Media/WPXI High School Sports Award.
The Spartans have had little turnover from last year's playoff team, which has kept Aleski optimistic. His go-to hitters — senior Josh Sullivan and Zach Renninger — return as the team's primary point leaders.
Juniors Matt Cain and Tyler Herman man the middle, while senior setter Zach Hartman, a second team all-WPIAL selection last year, aims to play solid defense and spread the ball around the floor.
Seniors Nolan Lasota and Jake Schaeffner and junior Mike Hensler rotate the in back row.
"We're pretty sound for the most part, but we have lapses in games where we'll give up some runs," Aleski said. "Beaver County Christian is a good team, so if you have some mental lapses and don't do the little things consistently, you give up runs.
"When you give up runs, you're always fighting back and pressing to make something happen."
Aleski doesn't have to worry about his players throwing in the towel yet. Sullivan said the players are all on the same page and eager to get back on track.
"Recently, we haven't been working as hard as we know we can," Sullivan said. "We've picked it up in certain aspects, but it's been a slow start. We need to start playing a lot harder because I know we can play."
Tuesday's loss especially resonated throughout the locker room, and assuring it won't happen again is a top priority.
"After (the Beaver County Christian loss) it was really an eye opener to everyone," Sullivan said. "That stuff can happen, and we don't want that happening again, so everyone is focused right now."
Aleski also has the luxury of knowing he is working with talented players who have experienced playoff success and are fundamentally sound.
"I think with this group, our biggest strength is our ball control," Aleski said. "That's what everything starts with. If we keep handling the ball well and focus on making sure that balls are going to the targets, hopefully we can open everything up."
Aleski hasn't changed his mindset on what he hopes the group can accomplish this season, but he knows the coming weeks will be crucial to achieving their goals.
"Our expectation was and still is — the season isn't over — make it back to the semifinals," Aleski said, "and maybe one step closer and make it to states."

Identified as a true whole body
JC Tonic's very precise and unique combination of its tonic herbs acts synergistically on all the body systems at once, and Dr. Mowrey, said, in particular, that the inventor knew both the importance of regaining and maintaining balance and health in the body using herbs that could produce that end.
Balance the body as whole first!
Scientific analysis and the subsequent development of many of our tonic herbal compounds bring promise to sustain the body against degenerative health problems. Worldwide sources and references from eminent schools of thought have confirmed that the medicinal tonic herbs used in this 60-year-old formulation are vital to the restoration and maintenance of YOUTH and VITALITY.
However, at a time of general health malaise throughout the country, JCWW felt that it should be a priority to balance the body as a whole first. Keeping this in mind, the first of Anthony's father's formulae reintroduced was the Jurak Classic Whole Body Tonic. It is JCWW's flagship product.
Space-age formula!
It applies to all structures and processes that are involved in defeating the attempts of environmental forces to overrun, destroy or gain control of any part of the body. A lifetime of abuse cannot be completely reversed overnight but many people are surprised at how quickly they begin to notice improvements in how they feel.
The individual tonic herbs in Jurak Classic Whole Body Tonic nourish specific cells, tissues, and organs and have been combined to treat the body as a whole. Large quantities can be given without harm or overstressing. Used for long periods of time, Jurak Classic Whole Body Tonic is a very gentle and slow stimulant that provides nutrients that the body can use.
Some nutrients include many constituents like plant pigments, such as anthocyanins or flavonoids. Tonic remedies are well tolerated and have a slow, nourishing, and normalizing effect on the body systems; imparting strength and tone. Taken on a regular basis, this tonic is a necessary, preventive insurance for people of all ages.

Hurricane Sandy: How the Powerful 'Frankenstorm' Is Affecting Hollywood
Indeed, with Sandy fast approaching such major cities as New York and Philadelphia, many people in the biz are scrambling to reorganize their schedules and cancel their plans in order to avoid what could be one of the most destructive storms ever.
But not everyone is seeking shelter. In fact, some of the biggest names in late-night television are planning to face Sandy head-on — even if they lose power.
So, who still has a call time — and who has the night off? Read on to find out how Hurricane Sandy is impacting the world of celebrity.
The Shows Won't Go On — For Now
Warner Bros. TV, CBS TV Studios and NBC Universal have halted production on a number of their New York-based shows, according to Deadline. Among the shows affected: Nurse Jackie; The Big C; Smash; 30 Rock; The Carrie Diaries; The Good Wife; and Person of Interest.
Many of TV's late-night talk shows, including The Late Show With Letterman and Late Night With Jimmy Fallon, will go on as planned. "We will be doing the show tomorrow night no matter what," host Jimmy Fallon tweeted Sunday. Meanwhile, the LA-based Jimmy Kimmel — who is taping this week from the Brooklyn Academy of Music — says his show will tape, as well, and will rely on back-up generators, should BAM lose power.
Curtains Down for For Broadway
Broadway shows scheduled for Monday evening were canceled Sunday due to the impending storm. No word yet on when shows will resume.
Louis C.K. Reschedules Show for March
Hurricane Sandy is proving to be no laughing matter for comedian Louis C.K., whose show Sunday night was rescheduled for March 2. "I thought about this very carefully and I really started to worry about making 4300 people come into midtown manhattan on Sunday night, which is just when the stormatron 5000 is supposed to crush our empire. new york state has ordered the sutdown [sic] of all mass transit (subways, buses and commuter trains) as of 7pm Sunday night, [sic]" he wrote on his website. "If it's any consolation, I'm eating a pretty staggering fee for cancelling the show. But I can take it. What I can't take is the thought that there's a CHANCE 4300 people will be in danger trying to get home from my stupid show."
Fans hoping to catch a glimpse of Keira Knightley this week will be sorely disappointed; the New York premiere of Anna Karenina, scheduled for Tuesday, has since been called off. In this case, it's a good thing the MTA suspended all train service.
Top Movie Productions Fade to Black
Deadline confirmed Sunday that production on Akiva Goldsman's directorial debut, Winter's Tale, has been halted until Wednesday. Affected castmembers include Colin Farrell, Jennifer Connelly, Russell Crowe and Matt Bomer. Also halting production: After the Fall, starring David Duchovny, Hope Davis and Timothy Hutton.
