Prison bars can surround the body or the heart.
Retired teachers John and Flora Jean Martin say they are reaching out to those who are imprisoned by both. They do it through Bible study correspondence courses offered to men and women in Ohio correctional institutions.
"I've had men write to me and say they didn't know freedom or peace until they were locked up," John Martin said, "but there are many people walking around outside prison who are incarcerated in their own walls and just don't know it."
The Martins help administer an eight-book course sponsored by Gospel Echoes Team based in Goshen, Ind. The first seven books contain 12 lessons, beginning with the basics of self-worth, acceptance and love, and progress through the 15-lesson final book, an in-depth study of the Holy Spirit as explained in the book of Acts.
A one- or two-page test for each lesson is returned for grading. Questions require true or false, fill-in-the-blank and life experience essay answers.
After completing the first four courses, prisoners receive a framed certificate with a gold seal along with a New Testament with their name embossed in gold letters. Completing the entire course earns them a larger certificate and seal. If their release comes before graduation, students can still finish the course. Although some inmates start and never finish the free course, a few have gone on to pursue a seminary degree.
John Martin serves as one of six local volunteer graders while his wife coordinates the Kidron grading center which can see as many as 12-15 tests arrive in the mail each day. Each correspondent gets the same grader for the duration of the course. It takes about an hour to grade each test, he said, although it can require as much as two or three hours on the final, most difficult coursework.
"Just because they're in prison doesn't mean they're ignorant," he said. "Some write so excellently, although some barely can write at all. I had one fella who couldn't spell, couldn't write a sentence that made sense. But I told him I was giving him a grade for effort.
"There is a grading key, but I don't use it all the time," he said. "If the answer is in the ball park, I give them credit. We don't fail anyone. Many of these people have been failures all their life, so I try to write some encouraging comments, no matter what. I suspect that in school and at home these fellas were bashed everywhere they went and maybe that contributed to where they are today."
Maybe even more than the meaty content, the prisoners crave a kind word, John Martin said.
"The more we minister to them in comments, the more we hear back from them," he said. "Many of them never felt cared for before," his wife added.
They have heard some inmate's sagas of the road to prison, the Martins said, most of which begin at an intersection of alcohol and drug addiction. Some of their correspondents are familiar faces on the local news, like Audrey Iacona, convicted of killing her newborn baby in Medina County, and Tom Dillon, sentenced for hunting hunters in the Coshocton area.
Nearly all of them share basic fears -- the violence of the prison environment, that family members will die, that spouses will leave. They struggle with low self-esteem, forgiveness of both others and themselves.
"One of their biggest fears is that they'll get out and fall away (from what they've learned)," Flora Jean Martin said. "We tell them it's not going to be easy and we try to give them some (printed) resources to help them."
With the help of church friends, the Martins also have been active in seeing that "stressed" or shelf worn books from Choice Books make their way to prisoners who express specific needs -- loneliness, forgiveness, marital problems, hopelessness.
"Some (books) we're sure will never be read," Flora Jean Martin said, "but some prisoners are hungry for more."
And some, she said, send their thanks to the Martins for giving of themselves. They get notes and letters and sometimes a $2 check, just because they want to make a contribution. "It's just very rewarding," she said.
Active in mission work throughout their 53- year marriage, the couple decided their retirement from teaching in 1985 gave them freedom to touch lives in other ways.
"We weren't confined to bells and alarm clocks," Flora Jean Martin said, "and we still wanted to do something we could feel was reaching beyond ourselves."
Of course they know that in any classroom there are a few students who just show up for the grade. It's likely, they admit, some cons are conning the teachers with an eye to how impressive a shiny gold seal from a Bible study course will look to a parole board.
"There is that little question in the back of your mind sometimes if someone is trying to butter you up somehow," John Martin said.
But it doesn't matter, they said. The payoff is great.
"Just one soul," Flora Jean Martin said, "is worth more than the whole world."
Since 1978 Gospel Echoes Team has sent more than 1.6 million Bible study courses to prisons across the United States, including the Lima Correctional Institution, the Mansfield Reformatory (now Correctional Center) and Indian River School in Massillon.
GET also distributes New Testaments and scripture address booklets, all at no cost to prison chaplains or inmates, and sponsors five ministry teams which visit prisons and churches.
The organization hopes to print 2 million additional copies of the correspondence course over the next decade and also is working on a Spanish version. Donations go toward printing and shipping costs.
For more information, contact the Gospel Echoes Team headquarters at P.O. Box 555, Goshen, IN 46527-0555 or call (219) 533-0221 or e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com.

Chevrolet Repair Questions? Ask a Chevy Mechanic for Answers ASAP
I can try that but, will the transfer pump run with both tanks full ?
Should i first siphon 5-10 gals out of the front tank???
I don't think there is a pump in the rear tank. The rear tank has a brand new sending unit in it.
When I turn the key on (w/o turning the engine over) I can hear the pump ( that i believe is in th efront tank)run for a couple seconds. then it stops
The way i understand the written description is: Main fuel pump/sending unit is in the front (or main ) tank. Then there is a transfer pump to tranfer fuel from the rear (or aux )
tank to the front tank. The transfer pump is not in the rear tank, it's on the frame rail between the 2 tanks. are you saying there is another pump in the rear tank that is not part of the sending unit ?
OK We got the gauge working-- Transfer pump still not working- we have a new module ( fuel pump balance module). The transfer pump is getting between 6 & 7 Volts w/ the old or the new module-- the gauge came back on with a bad fuse we found (ing E) we have a new transfer pump and it doesn't apper to work either. when we turn the key on the power to the transfer pump only last a couple seconds-- with the truck running it stays on-- we partially emptied the front (main ) tank. are we getting the right voltage ? do we maybe have a new defective pump ?
OK so why do you think i am only getting 6-7 volts? Also I can't tell on the diagrem where it says 12 volts. the pump only has 2 wires so i should be able to activate the pump using the trucks battery--Right? I tried to run the pump directly off the battery and it did not do anything (unless it's really really quite, i even held it to my ear)
so I'm guessing the new pump Napa sent out is defective. What would account for the reduced voltage at the pump ?? relay-- bad wire ??? where do you think i should check first ?

A submerged ancient Greek city, from the heroic era portrayed in Homer's Iliad, is being 'raised' from the bottom of the Aegean.
Using cutting edge underwater survey equipment and site reconstruction software, archaeologists and computer scientists have joined forces to map and digitally recreate a Bronze Age port which was swallowed by the waves up to 3000 years ago.
It's the first time that a submerged city has ever been fully mapped in photo-realistic 3D.
The entire city – covering 20 acres – has been surveyed in ultra-high definition, with error margins of less than three centimetres.
The survey – carried out by an archaeological team from the University of Nottingham – is the subject of a special BBC Two documentary, tomorrow Sunday evening.
The original name and political status of the site is a complete mystery. The evidence so far suggests that it flourished between 2000 and 1100 BC, peaking in size in the two century period, 1700-1500BC, and being abandoned about a century before the end of the millennium.

Though many dog owners are respectful park visitors, disregard for leash/scoop laws is an ongoing concern in many parks and natural areas. To increase compliance with leash and scoop laws, Portland Parks & Recreation uses a variety of education and enforcement strategies, as well as providing off-leash areas for dog-owner recreation.
Efforts include:

Off-Leash Areas should:
Operational Considerations
Portland's parks, natural areas and trails are extensively used for all types of recreation, and off-leash dogs and dog waste have significant impacts on the health, safety, and enjoyability of park lands.

U.S. Sanctions a Boost for Russia-Brazil Trade
Brasilia, August 8 (PL-RHC) -- The US/EU sanctions against Russia, which caused Moscow to impose retaliatory trade restrictions, have opened Brazilian doors to sales of meat and grains to that country, said Brazilian Secretary of Agricultural Policy, Seneri Paludo.
In an immediate response to the Russian ban of US/EU produce, the Brazilian government has authorised 90 slaughterhouses to enter the Russian market.
The president of the Brazilian Association of Animal Protein (ABPA), Francisco Turra, said the meat industry is ready to sell their produce to the Russians. So far 20 poultry farms have received permission from Moscow to supply 150,000 additional tons of chicken meat.
Last year Brazil sold 60,000 tons of chicken to Russia, according to the ABPA.
Negotiations are ongoing for increasing the supply of Brazilian milk, wheat and fish products to Russia, a Federal government spokesman said.

| 2002P-0520 - Dental Devices; Tricalcium Phosphate Granules and Other Bone Grafting Material for Dental Bone Repair
|FDA Comment Number :

| PROPOSED COMMENTS TO FEDERAL REGISTER Docket No 2002P-0520 - Food And Drug Administration 21 CFR Part 872 - VOL. 69, NO.125, p.39377.
The American Dental Association has reviewed the FDA request for comments on the proposal to reclassify tricalcium phosphate (TCP) granules for dental bone repair from class III to class II (special controls); classify into class II (special controls) all other bone grafting material for dental indications, except those that contain drug or biologic components; and revise the classification name and identification of the device. The Association is of the opinion that this reclassification is not sufficient to provide reasonable assurance of the safety and effectiveness of these devices and that these materials should remain in class III (premarket approval).
If these devices were reclassified into class II, compliance with a Special Controls Guidance Document on Dental Bone Grafting Material would be required for a 510(k) premarket notification. However, the proposed guidance document relies only on composition, physical properties and compliance with ASTM composition standards for evidence of safety and effectiveness. The American Dental Association in its Acceptance Program Guidelines for these devices, in addition to biological, physical and chemical properties of the material, requires reports on two independent clinical studies over a period of two years. In this manner criteria such as histological response, evidence of resorption, and mucosal health over the implant area can be evaluated. At this time, the Association strongly believes that only evidence from clinical studies is sufficient to provide reasonable assurance of the safety and effectiveness of these devices and therefore these devices should not be reclassified.

As previously announced, DiBella Entertainment's Broadway Boxing series returns Thursday, April 4, at Roseland Ballroom in New York City. The stacked 11-bout card will feature a number of DBE's top young prospects and contenders including former WBA junior middleweight champion Yuri Foreman (29-2, 8KO's), Luis "Orlandito" Del Valle (16-1, 11KO's), WBC #6-rated welterweight Ionut "Jo Jo" Dan Ion (30-2, 17KO's) and Gabriel "Tito" Bracero (21-1, 4KO's). After a two-year hiatus from the ring, the popular Brooklynite Foreman signed a promotional contract with DBE earlier this year and quickly returned to action, winning a six-round shutout decision over Brendan Baue on the DBE-promoted card on January 23, at BB King Blues Club. In the second bout of his comeback, Foreman will square off against Gundrick King (18-9, 11KO's) in a six-round junior middleweight matchup. Looking to put himself back into the win column after suffering his first pro defeat-on HBO in a decision loss to multipl...

The Legal Aid and Advisory Authority is moving to set up a public defenders department to meet the needs of its clients in-house instead of engaging private lawyers.
"We are moving towards a public defenders department, whereby, as in America and Jamaica, the lawyers at Legal Aid will defend people charged with criminal offences. We will have other representation in the civil arena," chairman of the Board Directors of the LAAA Israel Khan, SC said. Khan briefed the media yesterday at the start of a tour of the new headquarters of the LAAA at the Trinidad and Tobago Manufacturers' Association (TTMA) building in Barataria. The tour also coincided with the 300th meeting of the board of the organisation. The LAAA, which now occupies the first and the third floors of the TTMA building at a cost of $90,000 monthly, is in need of its own accommodation, Khan said.

Paid-via-Atlassian pricing FAQ
- How does server add-on pricing work?
Server products and add-ons are hosted on your servers. Licenses are perpetual and the purchase price include 12 months of maintenance (support and version updates).
You can renew maintenance after 12 months at 50% of the current purchase price. You can upgrade the tier of your host product and add-on licenses at any time. Upgrade prices are calculated based on Atlassian's formula (view example).
If add-on pricing changes after your initial purchase, there's a 60-day grandfathering period during which you can renew based on the old pricing.
- How do I determine my server pricing?
Add-ons are billed based on the number of users in your host product. The add-on tier should match the licensed user tier of the Atlassian host product. For example, if you have a Confluence Server license for 25 users, you should purchase the 25-user tier for add-ons. Even if fewer users want to use the add-on than your host product license, the two licenses should match exactly.
- Do you offer academic, community, or open-source licenses?
For server add-ons, purchase and renewal is half-price if you have an academic license for your Atlassian host product. Server add-ons are always free for community and open-source licenses.
For more details about qualifying for special licenses, see here.
- Can I extend my free trial?
For server add-ons, you can extend your add-on trial up to 5 times - in other words, for up to six months. Extend your trial by generating a new evaluation license key from Atlassian Marketplace. Click Try it free and you'll be directed to generate a new license. Paste this license key into the add-on listing in UPM from your Atlassian host product, and you're all set.
- How can I buy add-ons for my legacy JIRA Server or Confluence Server license?
If you own a legacy JIRA Server Unlimited (100+ users) or Confluence Server Unlimited (2000+ users) license purchased in 2012 or earlier, legacy add-on pricing is no longer available. You have two options for add-on purchasing:
- Purchase the add-on at the non-legacy Unlimited (10000+ users) tier.
- Renew your JIRA or Confluence license at a non-legacy tier, then purchase the add-on at the same tier.

The Hellbenders
In this gritty spaghetti Western helmed by Sergio Corbucci, Joseph Cotten headlines the cast as a bitter ex-Confederate officer named Jonas who hatches a scheme to reignite the Civil War by robbing a freight train carrying Union soldiers. After slaughtering them, Jonas and his three sons find themselves in a battle against the U.S. Cavalry and a tribe of Indians. Julián Mateos, Ángel Aranda, Gino Pernice and Norma Bengell also star in this epic.


text: College was useless. I've been enrolled in four of them, from first tier to community. True education does not occur in an encompassed setting at designated intervals adhering to strict schedules. Monotony sets in the first week and most people embrace the comfort and security of it all. Each class is given a time slot and a syllabus of material it will drone through over the period of a few months so that in a week or so everything involved in that first semester has set expectations that are designed to meet those expectations and nothing more. The most visceral experience a college may induce is having one's head lying a toilet seat as vomit and spit drip from their mouth, serving as a lesson in alcohol and our relationship to it. It is used to release our inhibitions, expand our social horizons, to get over the lies we live and the tears we cry and bury them in drunkenness. Its rampant use in college can be attributed to having to bid our youth farewell and numb the pain caused by the growth of our awareness to the consistencies of life. Childhood dreams get buried in the past as lies our parents told us come into fruition. Students are groomed to be complacent with simplicity. They become ships in bottles with nowhere to sail. Once graduated they embark into society blending in with the status quo of the middle class with little experience and knowledge to show for it besides mundane bureaucratic trivialities.

LONDON – Fast-rising star Hideki Matsuyama is one of the dark horses set to tee off at the British Open on Thursday as he bids to become the first Japanese player to win a major.
The 22-year-old has caused a storm since winning his first event on the Japanese Tour as an amateur in 2011 before turning professional last year.
Four further wins on his domestic tour lifted him into the world's top 50 and he conquered the PGA Tour earlier this year with his first victory at the Memorial.
A playoff win over American Kevin Na and a current best-ever ranking of 15 in the world has not gone overlooked by the rest of the tour's elite, including Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy.
"I think his future is very bright. He won at Memorial and I played with him actually at Firestone last year, as well," Woods said ahead of the Thursday tee-off at the Royal Liverpool Golf Club.
"He played well, he's got a lot of game, he's young and he still has a lot of development to go. He's only going to get better and he certainly has a wealth of talent and we'll see what happens."
The right-hander was the highest-finishing low amateur on his first appearance at a major in 2011 when he tied for 27th at the Masters won by South Africa's Charl Schwartzel.
Then came his breakthrough season in 2013 with the four victories in Japan and a supremely impressive showing at the British Open where he finished tied for sixth at Muirfield.
The 2010 Asian amateur champion also finished 10th at the U.S. Open in 2013 as he continues to knock hard on the door of becoming only the second Asian to win a major after South Korea's Yang Yong-eun won the PGA Championship in 2009.
He says the Hoylake layout should provide ideal conditions suited to his aggressive game.
"I'll be looking to play the ideal tee-shots depending on the situation but it will depend a lot on the direction of the wind which can change a lot on this course," said Matsuyama.
"There is the option to attack the back sides of the green with an iron or also playing it short but putting will be important.
"The conditions will be varying this week and if I don't use the driver off the tee, I can still go for it on my second shot."
McIlroy, a two-time major winner and former world No. 1, is just another of his growing legion of admirers and played alongside the talented Asian during the first two rounds of the British Open last year when American Phil Mickelson lifted the Claret Jug.
"I think Hideki is a very good player and it was great to see him break through at the Memorial there a few weeks ago," said McIlroy who won his majors in 2011 at the U.S. Open as well as the 2012 PGA Championship."
"I've played with him a number of times and he's very impressive. He's a great ball striker, a very good putter, very aggressive putter, and he impressed me this time last year when I played with him for the first two rounds," continued McIlroy about their first 36 holes at the British Open.
"So, yeah, it seems Japan are producing some good, young players and it's great to see."
"I'm pretty friendly with Ryo Ishikawa as well and it's been good to see him play a little better too. Looks like Japanese golf is in good hands." added McIlroy in reference to the player who became the youngest Japanese winner of a professional domestic event in 2007 at just 15 years and 8 months.
He is now ranked 76th in the world.

A simple stir-fry greens with fresh shiitake mushrooms. Great as part of a meal with rice, or noodles. According to the author, dried shiitake mushrooms can be used instead. The dried shiitake have to be soaked first and precooked before using them in the recipe. I will try that the next time.
This dish is usually served in Chinese restaurants, though it is a richer version with glossy sauce made with some rich stock, thickened with some corn starch solution. Instead of pak choy, brocolli can be used instead.
One of my favourite dishes when eating at Chinese wedding banquet.
Pak Choy With Fresh Shiitake
(adapted from "Every Grain Of Rice", by Fuchsia Dunlop)
300gm pak choy
6 fresh shiitake mushrooms
1/4 tsp caster sugar
1/2 tsp potato flour mixed with 1 tbsp water
3-1/2 tbsp cooking oil
3 garlic cloves, sliced
an equivalent amount of ginger, peeled and sliced
Wash the pak choy, the cut each head lengthways into quarters. Slice off and discard the mushroom stalks and halve the caps. Combine the sugar with the potato flour mixture.
Bring some water to a boil in a saucepan (1 litre will do), add 1/2 tsp salt and 1/2 tbsp oil, then blanch the pak choy and mushrooms briefly, just until the pak choy leaves have wilted, Drain and shake dry.
Add the remaining 3 tbsp of oil to a seasoned wok over a high flame, swirl it around, then add the garlic and ginger and stir a few times until you can smell their fragrances. Tip in the blanched mushrooms, and pak choy and stir a few times. Finally, add the potato flour mixture with salt to taste, give everything a good stir and serve.
kitchen flavours notes :
I did not blanch the pak choy, but microwave for 2 minutes. And did not blanch nor precooked the fresh shiitake, but used them directly in the recipe. Stir fry the mushrooms with the ginger and garlic for two minutes, then add the pak choy.

Some suggestions have been made the the postmaster would open a connection to it's own backend to do queries. I was responding to this. I agree that we should just store the information in shared memory. > do you know how shared memory is currently used? I'm fairly clueless > on this aspect. The shared memory stores the process table, the lock table, the buffer cache, and the shared invalidate list, and a couple of other minor things that all the backends need to know about. Strangely, the shared memory does not share a copy of the system catalog cache. This seems like a real misfeature as the catalog data is very useful to all the backends. The shared memory is managed by its own allocator. It is not hard to carve out a block for a new use, the only real trick is to make sure you account for it when the system starts up so it can get the size right as the shared memory is not extendable. > > - we have to modify the postmaster.

Well, right now the postmaster and the backend are the same binary. This has the advantage of keeping them in sync as we make changes, and now with Bruces patch we can avoid an exec() on backend startup. Illustra has a separate backend and postmaster binary. This works too, but they share a lot of code and sometimes a change in something you thought was only in the backend will break the postmaster. > > - more importantly, if the postmaster is busy processing a big select from > > a pseudo table or log (well, forwarding results etc), then it cannot also > > respond to a new connection request.

Well, it is not really a view, although a view is a good analogy. The term of art is pseudo-table. That is, a table you generate on the fly. This concept is very useful as you can use it to read text files or rows from some other database (think gateways) etc. It is also pretty common.

Greetings to all my favourite hottie lovers from around the world and best wishes to all of you on this glorious morning (or afternoon/night wherever you are). As most of you may know during the later end of the JOBLO MOVIE SHOW, I was proud to present a series of HOTTIE OF THE MONTH segments which featured sexy and popular actresses who I felt deserved a shout-out for their efforts and gave each of them a sexy tribute as thanks for what they've given us. So far, Zoe Saldana, Angelina Jolie, Olivia Munn, Scarlett Johansson, Salma Hayek, Monica Bellucci, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Milla Jovovich, Rosario Dawson, Natalie Portman and Jennifer Connelly have been given this honour and from now on, I'll be awarding this category to a popular actress EVERY MONTH from this moment forward.
If someone had asked me to cast SHE'S OUT OF MY LEAGUE before it started filming and my goal was to find the "perfect 10", I'm pretty sure that Amber Heard would have been my choice as I can't imagine anyone arguing with me. She's sweet, she's sexy, she's honest and best of all, she's got talent and that can be the hottest quality of them all. This girl has one hell of a career ahead of her as long as she picks the right roles and doesn't fall into the bullshit "opinion" traps like so many other up-and-coming actresses have done in the past *cough* HEIGL! *cough*. With DRIVE ANGRY 3D on it's way in February featuring Amber in Daisy Duke's as well as other big roles on the horizon (plus the fact that she's SMOKIN'!), Amber undoubtedly deserves the title for February so check out our special tribute to her below and enjoy.

Blair links Iran to Iraq bombs
Page Tools
British Prime Minister Tony Blair says evidence points to Iran or its Lebanese Hizbollah allies as the source of sophisticated explosives used in roadside bombs in Iraq, although Britain did not have proof.
The accusations, first made by a senior British official in an anonymous briefing, have added to tensions between Britain and Iran at a time when London and Washington are seeking UN action over Iranian nuclear programs.
The British official said London believed that Iran and Hizbollah had provided deadly armour-piercing explosives and infra-red devices used to kill British troops in Iraq.
Tehran denies it helps militants in Iraq.
"This is a lie," Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Hamid Reza Asefi told state television.
"The British are the cause of instability and crisis in Iraq," he said, adding that it was in Iran's interests to have a stable neighbour.
Hizbollah also rejected any link to the bombs.
"The British accusations that the party is the source of the explosives that have targeted the British occupation are lies," the group said in a statement issued in Beirut.
Today Blair said the accusations were not proven but were worrying. He also said they may have been an attempt by Iran to intimidate Britain over its tough stance in nuclear talks.
"What is clear is that there have been new explosive devices used, not just against British forces but elsewhere in Iraq. The particular nature of those devices leads us either to Iranian elements or to Hizbollah," Blair told a news conference after meeting Iraq's President Jalal Talabani.
"However we cannot be certain of this at the present time."
Talabani, who is a Kurd, said the Iraqi government would investigate the charges.
However, Iraqi Prime Minister Ibrahim Jaafari, a Shi'ite Muslim, rejected accusations from other countries that Shi'ite Iran was interfering in Iraq. Saudi Arabia, as well as Britain and the United States, have made such charges.
"Such accusations are baseless and we do not agree with them at all," Jaafari told Iranian state television. "Relations between Iran and Iraq are currently very friendly and strong and expanding. We are proud of the situation.
"Some people want to harm our existing friendly relations with Iran. But we will not let them do so," he said.
Eight British soldiers have been killed by roadside bombs since May.
Both British and US commanders say recent attacks in Iraq have used "shaped charges" with greater killing power and that this may have required outside expertise.
The Iranian- and Syrian-backed Shi'ite group Hizbollah has used similar devices against Israeli troops in Lebanon, the British official said, prompting suspicion of an Iranian link.
Britain and the United States have accused Iran of meddling in Iraq for many months, but the accusations of helping provide deadly explosives are more specific than in the past.
They come at a time when Tehran is quarrelling with the West over a nuclear program it says is peaceful but which Western countries say is aimed at developing atomic weapons.
Britain, along with Germany and France, led failed talks aimed at restricting Iran's nuclear ambitions and now supports the United States in referring Iran to the UN Security Council for possible sanctions next month.
"If it is also the case that they are trying to make some point about the negotiations over the nuclear weapons issue in respect of Iran ... we are not going to be intimidated on that," Blair said.

text: NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- In the past month, a 7.64-carat blue diamond sold for more than $8 million, a 48,000-square-foot home in Bel Air, Calif., went for $50 million and Picasso's "Nude, Green Leaves and Bust" painting brought in $106.5 million.Somebody's spending again. After hiding out for a year and a half during the recession, the rich have returned. In the first three months of 2010, luxury spending increased more than 20% after diving 20% last year. The American Express ( AXP) Travel Insights research found that luxury spending in December increased 7% from the same period two years earlier. In May alone, wealthy patrons put up $40 million for a 1936 Bugatti Type 57SC Atlantic, $32 million for an Andy Warhol self-portrait, nearly $29.5 million for Conan O'Brien's co-op on Central Park West and $5.7 million for a 1944 Patek Philippe 18-karat gold chronograph. "One thing that's fueling it is a great sense of relief among the high-end consumer that the worst is over," says Gregory Furman, chairman of the Luxury Marketing Council. "Couples in Greenwich, and Cartier, to name a luxury brand, are thinking: 'Phew, we made it through.' " In the past three years, the nation's affluent and wealthy have grown less impressed with themselves and more happy. According to American Express' 2010 Survey of Affluence and Wealth in America -- which received input from 1,910 respondents with income among the top 10% of all Americans and a mean income of $520,000 a year -- 70% rate themselves as "very happy," compared with 40% in 2007. Though 94% of affluent Americans believe we're still in a recession, with 60% expecting it to last another year, 75% of respondents say they're succeeding in this economy because of decisions they've made. Instead of spending on just about everything, luxury consumers have decided to invest in their passions. Car lovers, for instance, make up just 14% of the affluent but comprise more than 40% of automotive spending. The same holds true for the fashion-forward 9% who closet 39% of all high-end clothing purchases, or the jet-setting 9% who account for 42% of all travel spending. Shopping isn't a splurge to these buyers, but a value-based investment in the tradition and continued heritage of a durable product.

Stephen Oates, in his book on Martin Luther King, Jr., Let The Trumpet Sound, quotes King: For years... I labored with the idea of reforming the existing institutions of the South, a little change here, a little change there. Now I feel quite differently.

The Illusive Safety of Escape
R. Arthur Matthews in his book Born For Battle, writes a rather brutally true statement that I feel is profound. Not too many people are willing to go this far in wisdom: God can be reckless with the physical safety of his children because spiritual issues are more important than security and prosperity. And the spiritual issue about which God is concerned is loyalty, even to the bound of death. Why did God leave Watchman Nee imprisoned in China?

From Contradiction to Radical Living
Donald Nicholl, in a marvelous essay in Grail Journal, "Holiness: A Call To Radical Living", writes: In fact, every call of the Holy Spirit begins with a revelation of the bankruptcy of one's present, habitual mode of life, its tendency towards the death of one's spirit. That moment of awakening inevitably has to be a moment of anguish, of agony, and of repentance, because it is only from the pain of awakening to the contradiction in one's life that the energy to change arises. The fine-art … [Read more...]

I'm in perfect agreement with this. And it doesn't just apply to art, but to life, work, and for me, the spiritual life and ministry. I decided a while ago to not people-please.

Trenton, NJ - Governor Chris Christie released the following statement tonight on the tragic passing of New Jersey native James Gandolfini:
"It's an awful shock. James Gandolfini was a fine actor, a Rutgers alum and a true Jersey guy. I was a huge fan of his and the character he played so authentically, Tony Soprano. I have gotten to know Jimmy and many of the other actors in the Sopranos cast and I can say that each of them are an individual New Jersey treasure. Mary Pat and I express our deepest sympathies to Mr. Gandolfini's wife and children, and our prayers are with them at this terrible time."

Good Points
Sound quality, decent build quality, and well priced.
Bad Points
None, really.
General Comments
Sound quality of the Logitech X210 2.1 is really quite good - not quite up to the Cyrus/Proac combo sitting on the other side of the room, but given that it's being fed by a PC sound card, and it's all MP3 content, I'm happy. The sub seems well matched to the satellites, and doesn't overpower them or even sound too boomy. Cheap too, from my local Tescos - around £24. Cosmetically, they look pretty nice - and the sub is a decent size. The wiring is sensible too - everything seemed long enough for my rat's nest under the desk, although the power lead could've been a foot longer.

Here's where I've been puting everything.

* kitchen items (dishes, implements, cleaning supplies, dry food)
Ā The wire rack and table next to the rear windows is where we started putting cooking stuff and dishes. Cleaning supplies have been going on the wood shelf thing next to the bathroom

 * electrical items (power cords, extension cords, power strips, cables)
Ā Cables are all being rolled up and set next to the stacked tables, I'm going to build something to contain them. Extension cords can probably be rolled up and set next to the electrical room to go on shelves once they're built.

 * folding tables & chairs
Ā I've been trying to keep the extras on the landing for now.

 * hackable items
Ā Hack shelf next to the sliding glass door.

 * e-waste (where this differs from the above!)
Ā Giant pile in the elevator room.

 * tools of various sorts, within the shop (if organization has been done
 here)
Ā As far as I know, the shop is waiting to be organized until workbenches are built.

 * Noisebridge promotional items (t-shirts, stickers, etc)

Keith and I have been married for 32 years. We have two grown children and recently were blessed with our first grandchild! We have a dog, Beatrice, she is our 'kid' now that we are empty nesters. We live in Canby, another small town America at it's best. Keith manages a medium sized business and I work part-time as a victim advocate for the local district attorney. We like to garden and read, I am really into photography and Keith loves to golf. We adore our Rockaway home and know you will too!
Cara purchased this townhome in 2009
We were looking in Cannon Beach and became disillusioned with the crowds. My sister and I came to Rockaway for a girls weekend after winning the bid at a benefit auction. I was immediately in love with Rockaway. When we got home I told Keith we had to go there again. We planned a trip for later that summer. Keith felt the same way about Rockaway that I did and we started looking at property the same day. When we found our town house, I remember standing upstairs looking out at Twin Rocks and the beautiful ocean and feeling like I was home. We absolutely love it here and love our home SO much! We have tried to think of everything to put in the home to make it the ultimate in comfort and peace for everyone who comes here.
We love being able to look out the large slider in the living room and see Twin Rocks, sometimes it feels like you can reach out and touch them. The sectional in the living room has a chaise at one end that is 'the best seat in the house'. You can see Twin Rocks, with the seagulls drifting and diving, and read a book or watch TV from that spot, aaahhh! We love the little town of Rockaway. When we bring friends we like to walk the beach to the town square and then head over to the Cow Bell Cafe for breakfast, so nice.
We loved spending time with our family here. Such a beautiful house right on the beach! This place has everything you need to make it a relaxing vacation.
My family and myself spent our spring vacation in Rockaway at this property. Having 3 bedrooms with king beds we all got some great rest. The beds were very comfortable and all of the bedding was plush! Being able to have our family dog with us just made the week fabulous! Walking down to the beach to have a fire was convenient also. Thank you Cara for the wonderful week, and letting us enjoy your home!
Loved staying in this home so much.... Such a great lovely home right on the water..... The beach was incredible and so quiet ... We felt like we had our own private beach.
The accomodations were perfect for our entire family, especially our grandchildren.
The walk to the beautiful beach was excellent.
We experienced many quaint towns nearby and rode the adorable train.
The property was clean and had every convenience we could imagine and more.
We absolutely loved the location!
Cara is a wonderful communicator and responded to our inquiry about the property immediately.
We highly recommend this property.
We had a great time at Diamond Beach. The home was everything we could ask for. We love to cook and the kitchen was fully equipped and perfect for the 4 of us. We also like to play board games and watch movies and the set up is great for that.
The deck looks right out at the Pacific Ocean and I love to have my early morning ( Sleepy Monk ) coffee and enjoy the quiet time in the morning. The walk thru the sand dunes to the beach is easy and the beach is wide open and not crowded.
All the bedrooms were very good and the King beds with pillow top mattress were most comfortable. The only suggestion I would make is that there would ne several comfortable chairs on the deck off the master bedroom.
We loved our stay at rockaway beach and we plan to visit again soon
Loved this townhome. Was well equipped, clean, easy access to the beach. The location makes it easy to travel around the area. Rockaway is the right size of town to relax and grab a few things may need, but isn't far from Tillamook to do any major grocery shopping, etc. Only complaint have is the same as others in that it was a pain to have to re-login to the wi-fi everytime got back on it - doesn't remember it. Other than that, was only "complaint" (and that wasn't a big one either). We were travelling with our teen daughters and my in-laws. The setup worked great and everyone loved it.
Cara was easy to work with, responsive and would definitely recommend and come back if ever have the opportunity. A gorgeous location.
Rockaway Beach Oregon is small town America at its best! Located just minutes up the coast from Tillamook on Highway 101, Rockaway retains that quaint beach village, 'wide spot in the road' feeling. Life is simple here with lots of community activities like Bingo and Spaghetti Feeds. The shop owners are friendly and helpful. Rockaway features a town square where many events are held. Craft fairs are held there routinely interspersed with larger gatherings like the Kite Festival, Rocktoberfest and Pirate Days. Fourth of July is not to be missed in Rockaway! There is a parade and fun run, and best of all, the largest fireworks show on the West Coast!
While the town is wonderful, the beach is amazing! Seven miles of wide sandy beaches, Twin Rocks planted just south of town provides a majestic view. Seagulls dip and dive, gentle breezes and an occasional fishing boat wandering by, peace is just a sand chair away.
Other Activities: Miniature golf, Boating, Shopping, Shelling, Wildlife Viewing, Kayaking, Health/Beauty Spa

Mailbox for April 13
April 15, 2013
City should focus its funds on repairing the roads
I am writing to you about the April 3 article in the Tribune, "Road Block."
I moved to Greeley six years ago, and for the last six years I have heard over and over about the condition of our streets and lack of funding.
I believe that until the city council gets serious about the street problem and finds a way to fund the street program, nothing is going to change. Talk is cheap. What we need is action.
Joel Hemesath has stated over and over that our infrastructure is in need of funding. I cannot imagine the frustration of going before the council and hearing the same thing over and over: Do what you can with what you have. Hemesath should be applauded for what he is able to accomplish with the small budget he is allotted.
The council needs to re-arrange its priorities. We do not need new buildings, or to just repave city parking lots. Let's think about selling the buildings that the city owns that are not being used.
I know that the city thinks art is a priority, and I know that the funding is separate from other funding.
If I'm not mistaken, they have close to $1 million in reserve. Let's stop the funding for that program for a while and put it toward the street fund — and yes, the city can redirect funds.
I have attended many city council meetings, and have also run for city council, but found not being in the area for very long was a disadvantage. I have also found that Greeley Mayor Tom Norton is not interested in new ideas, and the council seems to follow his lead, not wanting to go against the mayor.
I feel like I said it all at the start of my comment: "Until the city council gets serious about finding funding for our street department, our roads will continue to deteriorate."
The mayor stated that the street program will receive an additional $3 million, and that is better than nothing. I would like to say, "No, you are wrong, Norton. That is nothing."
Road repair is expensive and should be the top priority every year.
Joe Bain, Greeley
Council has taken action to improve quality of streets
Thank you for your interest in the challenges we are facing regarding street maintenance. I remember you attending some public meetings in the past and am happy you are still a Greeley resident.
I agree with you that Joel and his staff should be applauded for their efforts to address these challenges. I am very proud of them.
I would not, however, agree that council members are not doing anything to address this issue. As you are aware, they did place a ballot measure before the voters to request more funding as they clearly understand a need for additional funding to meet their expectations for the quality of road maintenance. Since the time the voters rejected that proposal, they convened community meetings requesting input as to where cuts in other city services should be made to meet the approximately $6-8 million funding gap. The results of these meetings were that the citizens did not want to cut services in other areas.
They reviewed, due to citizen comment, the 1 Percent for Art program to determine if those funds could be moved to street maintenance. In short, these fund are not eligible for street maintenance.
Lastly, they have earmarked the vast majority of any carryover funds annually to this need, in some cases more than doubling the amount of funding normally allocated to street maintenance.
With your professional background and interest in this subject, perhaps you could help us better educate the community on the need to appropriately fund street maintenance. Hearing this message from someone not in the government is at times a more powerful message. When the ballot measure was considered, there was a citizen group that supported the effort. Perhaps you would be interested in working with like-minded individuals in this regard. If so, please contact Joel, and he can get you in touch with them.
Again, thank you for taking the time to express your concerns.
Roy Otto, Greeley city manager

The FBI says criminal charges in the IRS abuse scandal aren't likely.
The officials said investigators didn't find the kind of political bias or "enemy hunting" that would amount to a violation of criminal law. Instead, what emerged during the probe was evidence of a mismanaged bureaucracy enforcing rules about tax-exemption applications it didn't understand, according to the law-enforcement officials.
That's bogus. President Obama himself at least set the tone that led to the abuse of conservative, Christian and Tea Party groups by calling for them to be investigated in several of his public comments. He may have done a whole lot more than just set the tone. Obama placed William Wilkins into the IRS counsel's office, and that office was responsible for developing the IRS guidelines that led to the targeting of the president's opponents. IRS chief counsel Wilkins met with President Obama just two days before his office handed out the guidelines that agents used to target the president's opponents. A day after that, the head of the IRS workers union also met with President Obama. Either of these meetings look bad, but both together look terrible. Add to these two meetings at critical times, then IRS commissioner Doug Shulman attended 118 meetings in the White House across the time of the abuse.

Tonight's Girlfriend April O'Neil
I used to be a college professor... and I would never cross that line between teacher and student... but how can the 'school-girl' thing NOT cross your mind when you see literally hundreds of barely-ripe, barely-legal girls every day? There was one student who looked so much like April O'Neil, and was just everything I'd ever want. I wish I could have made something happen with her, but my job...you know, in the movies it looks so easy, but when your real job is really at stake, it's a different story. Anyway, I don't know how much I can really teach April O'Neil, but tonight she is going to be my favorite student.

Probate is the legal process used to carry out a person's will after their death; a probate attorney advises you on how to perform the steps in the process. In general, once you have identified and collected the dead person's belongings, including their money, property, and other assets, you pay the person's debts and taxes. Once all debts have been paid, you distribute their money and property according to the language of the will. If there is no will, the laws of the state where the dead person lived control how the property is distributed. A probate attorney helps you plan what happens to your property when you die, as they can probate wills and act as your probate court estate representative. A probate attorney also represents family members and beneficiaries wishing to challenge wills.
