For Those That Have Ears
As the story goes, a man died and arrived at the Pearly Gates. Instead of facing Saint Peter, he faced Jesus Christ.
Jesus recognized that this mans name was recorded in the Book of Life, and for this, Jesus embraced the man. The embrace melted the man, and he lost all his strength and self-composure. He wept like a baby.
The man had never felt anything like the fullness of peace, joy and hope he experienced in that moment of embrace. Simply, the man wanted that moment to last an eternity and Jesus responded, It shall, but first you must see.
The man then turned to look where Jesus was pointing. With the arm of Christ over his shoulder, both looked upon the mans earthbound life.
Jesus said, Lets look and discover together the sum and substance of your life. We are looking for redeemed moments, moments you received by faith, as a gift from me. Regretfully, there were very few moments that had been received as a gift from the Creator. While the man saw himself, he no longer identified with the man he saw. As his life marched past, contempt for the selfishness of his life began to materialize. He saw the futility of his self-bound pursuits. He wanted to yell out Wake up you fool, but of course, this also would be futile.
Occasionally, a moment passed that glowed of eternal glory; often they were moments that the man himself did not remember. Some came as a result of personal calamity, moments when the man was on his knees, praying to God for deliverance, moments of urgency and genuineness.
Jesus said, Many, just like you, will suffer great loss, but even yet, will be saved. Your opportunity to store treasure was but a vapor, and even that was not always put to good use.
Oh, the regret! Why was so much wasted for so little? Why do we ignore the everlasting while in pursuit of that, which will fade, rust away, rot and become dust? Why do we neglect those things of eternal substance, love, peace, joy, hope and faith in pursuit of a world that is perishing? Oh, our lips are full of knowledge, but our hearts are hard. We profess much with our mouth, and yet fulfill little with our hearts.
Immediately, the man was transported and beheld a beautiful bride reclining in luxury and a voice spoke from outside as though it was yet inside, I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth. Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked: I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and [that] the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see. As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent. Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne. He that hath an ear let him hear what the Spirit saith.
And the man said, What is this and what does it mean? And Christ said, The bride is my beloved and you constitute a portion of her. Those moments of glory that you saw, those sparks are eternal life. As you see, she has become distracted and hears not my voice. She is dull and prefers the Worlds embrace to my own. Her faith is being wasted upon herself. Sadly, she loves her identity with me, but prefers time in the world with herself.
As the man continued to look, he heard the knock at the door begin to fade and then it was heard no more. The bride smiled and retreated further into her slumber! Quickly, the man looked at the Lord in distress. Christ smiled and said, If any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, he that hath an ear let him hear what the Spirit saith.

Since then we have stayed there often... I recently took my mom to the beach with reservations planned by another family member., (not the Roxanne) those reservations fell through and we had no place to stay. Mom and walked into the Roxanne Towers and were imediately welcomed. Mom had broken her arm and was very tired. What a surprize we had when we walked into our unit and found a recliner...Mom could rest and look straight out at the beautiful view.
When she wanted to go to the pools or hot tub the elevator was close and quick to arrive. The Roxanne is clean, quiet, and very welcoming!!! It is conviently located a few blocks from the pavilion and close to grocery stores and shopping. As I said berore I love the Roxanne and I will return!!!!!

Love and Football
Love and Football
By Trish O'Donnell
Sports Information Student Assistant
There are two sides to Andrew Shull. The aggressive, outspoken and hard hitting one that K-State fans see on Saturdays. But off the field, Shull is completely different laid back and a romantic at heart.
Wait a minute. Romantic? A Division I student-athlete? Shull's relationship with fianc Shay Lowe illustrates his passion for life on and off the field.
Shull claims his favorite off the field moment is asking Lowe to be his wife. They first met on July 4, 2002. Shull had no plans for the holiday, so teammate Sean Lowe, a redshirt freshman linebacker, invited Shull to his home in Arlington, Texas.
"That's when I first met Shay," Shull said. "Nothing really happened though. I called her a few times just to say hello. We didn't start dating until a few months later."
That fall, Shull and Shay Lowe began their long-distance relationship. She lives in Dallas and sells insurance and goes to school, while Shull spends most of his time on the football field, in meetings at the football complex or in classes.
So is Lowe jealous of all the time Shull spends with his teammates?
"She's actually really cool about it," Shull said. "Shay loves football and she knows that all the time I'm putting in now could help us both out in the future."
And as far as the distance thing goes?
"We started out dating from a distance, so it's something we've just gotten used to," Lowe said. "We make up for it the best we can. I come up for every football game and in the off-season, he comes down to Dallas as much as he can. I try to arrange my work and school so I can spend as much time with him as possible."
But Shull says the effort is all worth it.
"It's really crazy how things work out," he said. "We meet each other by chance and God obviously had a hand in things. Really, what are the chances of meeting such an amazing girl from down in Texas while I'm playing football at Kansas State?"
For Shull, simply playing football is a bit of an understatement. Through nine games this season, Shull has tallied eight tackles for a loss of 16 yards, two sacks and six pass breakups. He has made 42 tackles thus far, which ranks eighth best for the Wildcats in the defensive stats category.
"I'm a lot different on and off the field," he said. "It's kind of a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde thing. There are things I say out there that I'd never say off the field. When I'm out there, I totally lose myself in the game. It's a nice escape from reality."
So what is this 6-foot-5 defensive end like away from the turf?
"He's really sentimental and sweet," Lowe said. "When I met him I knew he was Mr. Celebrity up at K-State so I thought he'd have an ego to go along with it. But he's not like that at all. He'd probably kill me, but he's really sensitive and not your typical jock."
Other than that, Shull is a self-proclaimed neat freak who has to have everything in its place and his apartment clean. Since Shull lives by himself, it's not hard to do.
"I love living alone," he said. "When I'm around people all day, it's great to come home and be by myself. I can do homework and there isn't any noise. And I don't have to clean up after anyone."
Shull is a bit of a comedian as well. He's the one who will wrestle with his teammates like they are his little brothers. He's the one who will make sure a buddy gets a nickname if he deserves it. Just ask Josh Buhl about being called Superman' and you'll understand.
"I like to have fun," Shull said. "I'll do what I can to make a bad situation better. Pranks are always fun and I can always use a laugh."
Especially in the serious atmosphere that is Vanier Football Complex. Shull claims to have learned much from his days in the Wildcat football program. Everything from time management, in the way head coach Bill Snyder uses every minute of a practice, to his work ethic, one aspect of his personality that truly matches Snyder's.
"Coach is pretty even-keeled," Shull said. "It's hard to see his emotions. I'll wear my emotions out on my sleeve, which is a bit different from Coach. But each of his players knows his system and he has instilled in all of us an amazing work ethic."
Though Shull is a machine between the white lines, he is nearly opposite when practices are over.
Shull's father got him a little yellow scooter to drive to classes on the K-State campus. He says he's a bit lazy when it comes to walking to class and riding a bicycle isn't his style. He can park the scooter in the bike rack right next to the building he's going to and save his energy for football.
"I know I'm a big guy for such a little bike," Shull said. "And there is a weight limit, but I just ignore it."
Shull will graduate in December and plans to move to Dallas to finish up wedding plans and to tie the knot. The couple will have had almost a year-long engagement.
Shull said he had been setting Lowe up for a while.
"I told her not to expect anything soon, but I knew the engagement was going to happen," Shull said.
Though he proposed shortly after the spring game, Shull had purchased the diamond in January but hadn't gotten it set until April. That gave Shull plenty of time to plan the perfect proposal.
The two went to dinner at one of their favorite restaurants in Dallas and ate a fabulous meal. Shull then took Lowe to the one place he remembers about Dallas from his childhood, the Mustangs at Las Colinas. He had with him a handful of small silver stones, inscribed with words like joy and peace. Shull began to talk about them to Lowe and explained his love for her. She wasn't expecting anything when he pulled out the ring and got down on his knee.
"I'll never forget her face," Shull said. "Plus it was great when my parents flew down and joined her parents and friends for an engagement party afterwards."
This great moment for Shull is on a completely different level from his favorite football memory the comeback in the 2002 Holiday Bowl and the last stand of that defense but it will always stand as one he will always remember.

I have two lines for each of my remote branches, primary is Leased Line and backup as ISDN (both are from diff. vendors), which is configured with router and switch auto when primary fails. I'm seating at central location from there I'm monitoring all lines using freeware graphical ping softwares. It shows proper indication whether there is connectivity for specific IP address.
But I never come to know that remote site is running on Leased Line or ISDN? How can I graphically find it. Right now I'm doing console cmd ping & by response I come to know that whether it is leased or ISDN line.
Please guide me to find grahically find whether leased line or isdn line is working.

could you not query the routers at each end (possibly via snmp) to tell you what state the connection is in (primary or failover)?
what hardware is involved?
Mar 3, 2011 at 12:56 UTC
Aren't the leased line and ISDN on different interfaces on the router? If you use SNMP to monitor the traffic on both interfaces you should be able to tell which one you're using. Try using PRTG or some other traffic grapher.
Mar 3, 2011 at 3:51 UTC
We are using CISCO 3900 at Data Center & 1900 at remote site without SNMP. I'm not trying to query router.
Mar 3, 2011 at 3:52 UTC
I'm not uses SNMP, is there is any solution without SNMP.
Mar 3, 2011 at 4:51 UTC
without SNMP i guess it would be hard.
Does the ISDN interface run on a different IP to the leased line?
Another thought is, if you did a tracert to the remote site would the ISDN take a different route to the remote site than the leased line? Would that help you tell the difference? But then again that is from the command prompt...
It might be possible to graphically script it in powershell to do a tracert and search the returned string for certain routers and depending on what it finds display 'LEASED' or 'ISDN' but that is well beyond me.
...or there might be a program that does that, if so I don't know it ;)

Gilles Deleuze
Life Path Number 9
Gilles Deleuze was a male celebrity.
He was born on Sunday January 18th 1925, in Paris, France,.
Gilles Deleuze is the philanthropist, humanitarian, socially conscious, and is deeply concerned about the state of the world, for which he has great compassion and idealism. Gilles is a utopian, and will spend his life trying to realize some aspect of his utopian dream, sacrificing money, time, and energy for a better world. It is in giving that Deleuze finds much satisfaction.
Gilles Deleuze has a broad outlook on life. He tends to see the big picture, rather than the minute details. Gilles naturally attracts people from all walks of life who can fit into his larger plans and take over the areas he finds uninteresting. The person with a 9 Life Path is rarely prejudiced or accepts social biases of people. Instead, they evaluate people on the basis of what they can do for the larger cause. They are the true egalitarian.
Gilles is imaginative and creative, especially at harmoniously arranging the beauty already potential in the environment. These abilities can lead Deleuze into such fields as interior decorating, landscape art, and photography. But because of his strong social consciousness, Gilles Deleuze can be an effective politician, lawyer, judge, minister, teacher, healer, and environmentalist. Vocations that require self-sacrifice and have a clear social impact are common among 9s.
He is often disappointed by the realities of life: the shortcomings of others, or of his own self's. Somehow, Gilles Deleuze does not want to accept the imperfections of the world, a feeling that drives him constantly to try to improve upon it. But rather than be satisfied with his efforts, and those of others, Gilles relentlessly pushes on, striving for greater accomplishments. He is often unsatisfied with the results. In short, Deleuze lacks the perspective that would otherwise make it possible for him to enjoy life more fully, and accept its natural limitations.
Gilles Deleuze has a controlled enthusiasm and the ability to finish what he starts.
A key to Gilles' personality is the necessity of sacrifice. Gilles has to learn to let go of material possessions and relationships, the inherent lesson being that holding on too tightly to anything causes pain.
Money comes to Gilles Deleuze through mysterious or unexpected ways: inheritance; the benevolence of someone who was inspired by Deleuze's work; or a lucky investment. Conversely, if Gilles pursues money for its own sake, after giving up on his larger dreams, he is likely to find himself empty handed.
The most successful and satisfying road for a nine is giving; sharing and sacrificing for a larger goal, without expecting anything in return. Gilles' greatest chance at success is to tie his personal fortunes to an endeavor that makes the world a better place for others. Very often, this turns into a highly successful and lucrative enterprise, providing amply for Gilles Deleuze and his family. His life rests on the axiom that the more he gives, the bigger his reward.
Gilles Deleuze is romantic, but his love is more impersonal. He tends to be focused on his dreams instead.
When Gilles is not in harmony with his true nature, he can fall to moodiness, or become aloof, and withdrawn. He can become timid, uncertain, and ungrateful, putting the blame for his troubles on others or the world. Deleuze has a gift for examining his life objectively, and at some distance. He has to be honest with himself. By openly facing his shortcomings, as well as his strengths, he develops equilibrium. Gilles Deleuze is thus able to love and better understand himself and all of life.
You and Gilles
About Gilles' Life Path number
If ever there was a single moment of total transformation, it was actually the moment of Gilles Deleuze's birth. In that instant, Gilles stepped through a door in time into a new reality - the reality of human life. The most critical number in Deleuze's numerology chart is based on the date of his birth - the moment when the curtain went up in Gilles Deleuze's life.

AWESOME. Columbo: The Complete First Season (DVD) Rat...
ITEM#: 3004846Raincoat-clad detective Columbo (Peter Falk) is one of television's most popular private investigators. Outwardly Columbo appears to be a pushover, a quiet man who appears to only grasp rudimentary facts concerning detective work. His mind is brilliant, however, and he always appears able to ask the one question that no one else thought to ask, leading to a string of successful cases. Each episode of the series features a careful deconstruction of events by the placid cigar smoking sleuth, aiming to keep viewers second-guessing everything until the final moments of the show. This release offers 7 episodes from the first season, as well as two COLUMBO TV movies.
