FDA & Sunscreen Labels
June 15, 2011 by USA Post
FDA & Sunscreen Labels, The new federal standards for sunscreen labels are coming to a pharmacy shelf near you. The Food and Drug Administration is trying to make sunscreen less confusing for American consumers. The idea is to make sunscreens more effective and easier to use. For example, FOX23 News buys a can of Neutrogena "Ultimate Sport Sunblock Spray," and of 13.89. The label on the packaging says the product is "ultra sweat," "waterproof" and has a protection factor "100." However, FDA believes that the terms are confusing and could lead, even sunbathing error to believe that it is necessary to "re-apply throughout the day.
That's why the agency has issued new rules and guidelines that require new labeling rules, and mandate that manufacturers of sunscreen efficacy testing of their products against the sun's rays that pose the greatest risk or skin cancer from UV rays. The compulsory change of the media, a year from now, writing in the same boat Neutrogena sunscreen must be completely different. Some swimmers of the Capital Region have come with their own strategy for the choice of SPF and skin protection, especially in the skin of their children from sunburn.
Romana Danicova of Colonie has a son-skinned 13-month-old named Lucas. She said: "I usually put anything around 30, 40, 50, 60 (SPF) of it, depending on the weather and everything."
When asked if she reapplies sunscreen "often", he said, "It depends. Generally, when you go in the water that I do."
Bridget Kelly of Schenectady is also very conscious of sun on childcare. She said: "They have white skin, and just got back often, every four hours if exposed to sun during the day."
When asked how many FPS you normally buy, he said, "Usually 35. I can use 30 or more."
As a result, despite what the FDA is asking confusing product labels, both mothers are in the right direction.
However, the agency expects the label change will help reduce confusion.
By this time next year, terms like "waterproof", "sweat" and SPF higher than 50 is prohibited.
And those are not the only changes to the road.
Under the rule changes, sunscreens with SPF less than 15, or no protection against ultraviolet A and ultraviolet B must carry a warning label.
Albany Dermatologist Dr. Teddy Pan thinks it's a big step in the right direction.
Dr. Pan said, "Well, I think people were confused by the waterproofing and the (labels) to sweat. Estimate that when they go swimming and do not need to reapply sunscreen after."
But Dr. Pan says a new application every two hours is really the key to being sun safe. "Look for a sunscreen that is" broad spectrum ", and has an SPF higher than 30," he said. "I always recommend to reapply sunscreen every two hours, usually after swimming or excessive sweating."
Dr. Pan also recommends limiting your sun exposure between 10 am and 2 pm, and choosing what you wear with care.
We suggest you wear a hat, and even invest in "sun-protective" clothing, or shirts and pants with SPF built into the fabric.
The FDA ordered changes in the labeling of sunscreen products will appear in stores in July 2012.

"Perhaps one of the most important accomplishments of my administration has been hiding my own business." - Calvin Coolidge. He attempted shrink the government, starting with his own position. A great lead by example president. Do as I say, because its what I do type. We need more like him.
Yes, Calvin Coolidge did a lot for the United States, because he helped the United States into an era of a good economy. Coolidge didn't boast about his achievements, but on the sidelines, he made the economy more free so that business could prosper. Coolidge's leadership put people to work and kept America at peace. For these reasons he was the best president ever.
No knock on Calvin Coolidge, he did many great things during his presidency. However, there are several other presidents who would rank higher than him, even if there is no real number one. George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, the Roosevelts, all had a huge impact on America. Barack Obama also rates above Coolidge.
It is a bit oversimplifying to consider any one president the best president ever. The fact that the great depression happened almost immediately after him is especially not a cause to deem him as even one of our better presidents. There were other presidents that caused more social change and made important strides in American history.
Coolidge as VP took the office of president on the sudden death of Warren Harding and was elected into a second term. He was an advocate for smaller government and the middle class. He was able to restore confidence in the presidency after years of scandal but he was not the best president in history.

Not content to let snakeheads steal all the limelight, the tiny, spiny water flea (Bythotrephes cederstroemi) has also made its presence known in the state of Wisconsin. Already a problem in the Great Lakes, the water flea had not been seen in an inland Wisconsin lake until last week, when scientists discovered the species abundant in all parts of Gile Flowage. The state officials are concerned that the appearance of the water flea in this shallow lake is a sign of what is to come for other bodies of water in the area.

Borderline lift after pregnancy/breastfeeding? Will I get a natural look with just implants? (photos)
Doctor Answers 14
Borderline lift?
This is a difficult issue for many patients. I have never met a patient that desires the extra scars associated with a breast lift. Many doctors will go to great lengths to avoid these scars: using a dual plane dissection, using HP implants, using large implants, or placing above the muscle. All of these "tricks" might help temporarily or might not help at all.
After a couple of years, if you needed a lift you will be unhappy with your heavy or droopy results using these tricks.
I would recommend discussing this with several board-certified plastic surgeons in person to best understand your situation. It is doing your homework before surgery.
Best of luck

Another idea would be to try the dual plane internal lift with implants. See the reference and the video below. On average this raises the nipple about 1/4-1/2 inch. Talk to your PS about this option also. It sound like you are aware of your alternatives and that you might need a lift in the future. All the best, Dr. Joe

Borderline for lift after pregnancy/breastfeeding
Borderline lift after pregnancy/breastfeeding? Will I get a natural look with just implants?
It is common for the breast to lose its firmness and uplifted appearance over time, which is also accentuated with age, pregnancy/breast feeding, weight gain/loss, and gravity. This results in breast ptosis, or sagging of the breast, with a "deflated" appearance. Women seek the mastopexy procedure to regain the previous youthful appearance of her breasts and women report increased confidence, self-esteem, and femininity once achieving this desired shape and fullness. Breast lifts may or may not be performed with implants – the implant would add increased size but also greater fullness in the upper pole of the breasts which creates more cleavage. Given your photo, I would consider a lift with an implant. Hope that this helps!

However as long as you understand that you may need a breast lift in the future it can be appropriate to have a submammary breast augmentation now with the understanding that he lift may be required in the future. For more information on breast lift with implants please read the following link:

It sounds as if you do not want a lift at this time, so a very reasonable plan is to perform an augmentation now with the understanding that you may need a lift in the near future.

His adaptations also greatly impressed the ghost of J.R.R. Tolkien, who doesn't remember writing most of what happens in the movies.
His next project is rumored to be an epic, multimillion dollar adaptation of See Spot Run.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
I am already spayed, up to date with shots, and good with dogs.
Adoption Fee: $125 (includes spay/neuter, microchip, vaccinations)
Sienna was turned in as a stray to the Hayward shelter. She was in the shelter for a couple of months, then adopted at the "Clear the Shelters" event, and returned the next day due to housing issues for the family.
During her time at the shelter she struggled a little bit with shelter staff and being handled by strangers, but made some progress. Another dog at the shelter, Abagail - a Jack Russell / Chi mix - was struggling even more with being handled and anxiety, so the shelter kenneled the two dogs together. It was a great idea as both dogs faced their shelter anxiety and fears together. When Nobody's Perfekt Dogs went looking for the next dog to take into foster care, we knew we had to take both of them, as it would have been devastating for the one left behind.
Once both dogs were out of the shelter and in a home setting, they really started to blossom. Sienna is more comfortable with people, while Abagail loves playing other dogs. They are doing well, overall.
We are not insisting that they be adopted together, but it would be a nice happy ending for both of them.
For more information about Sienna (and Abagail), you can contact the foster dad directly

Couple attacked with hammer and knife at their home in Dublin
Gardai are appealing for witnesses to come forward after a couple were attacked with a knife and beaten with a hammer at their home in Dublin on Sunday night.
The man and women, both in their 40s, were the subject of the vicious attack when two men assaulted them at their house on the Swords Road in Whitehall at around 10.30pm.
They had just returned home and found the men waiting for them, suffering head injuries in the assault, but luckily prevented the men from gaining access to the inside of their home.
The attackers fled on foot and the couple were taken to the Mater Hospital to be treated for their wounds.
Gardai are investigating the incident and are appealing for witnesses to contact them on 1800 66611 (Garda Confidential Line) or at Santry Garda Station.

I know most of us probably think Milton did it, but I think there is a very possible chance that Martinez could've done it. People have been pointing out that Martinez's comic counterpart is a bit more sly, and his TV counterpart is more "straightforward."
IMO, Martinez's point of view towards the prison survivors changed after he met Daryl and has a slight talk with him. When they arrived back at Woodbury and the Governor orders him to prepare men out to kill everyone in sight when they meet next, Martinez acknowledges it, but doesn't show that "slick smile" that he usually does whenever he kills something with satisfaction.
I have a theory that Martinez may start to feel that this is all going out of control, but do not trust anyone to share his point of views with. He watches closely when Tyress and Allen fights over it's ethical to unleash the biters, and may have "secretly" concluded on who he can recruit / trust if he is to go against or attempt to escape Woodbury.
The Governor may have a slight distrust over Martinez as well now, since he also lied to him about not finding Andrea. In the end, I believe it would be Milton and Martinez rescuing Andrea, and bringing Tyress, Sasha, and maybe some random people in an attempt to join the Prison.
Of course this is all just my opinion.

Former chief minister Jon Stanhope was resoundingly knocked back in his call at a Labor Party sub-branch meeting on Thursday night for the party to sell the Labor clubs and rid itself of its connection with gambling.
Mr Stanhope's motion had limited support but was opposed by most at the Mount Rogers sub branch meeting. He had more success in another challenge to his party, asking it to back Norfolk Islanders in their fight to retain self-government. That call was supported almost unanimously.
Mr Stanhope said earlier that it was morally and politically untenable for the Labor Party to continue to own the clubs and receive money from the proceeds of gambling, given the club group is a big owner of poker machines in the ACT. Club money was also unnecessary given the proposed fourfold increase in public funding for election campaigns, from $2 a vote to $8 per vote.
Canberra Labor Club president Tony Luchetti hit back at Mr Stanhope on the idea last month, saying the club board was independent of the party and would not take instruction from it.
Mr Stanhope rejected Mr Luchetti's position as technically correct but "absurd" and "nonsense". If the party took a position that the clubs should be sold, that would be the result, he said.
The Labor Party "simply should not be associated with gambling", Mr Stanhope said, also pointing to the conflict of interest in both owning and legislating for the club industry.
"The association with gambling and the conflict of interest, perceived or otherwise, are both morally and politically unacceptable," he said.
On the Norfolk Island issue, Mr Stanhope said the proposal to strip the island of self-government was bizarre and he criticised Labor federal MP Gai Brodtmann and Labor Senator Kate Lundy for supporting the move.
"Our senator and member for Canberra have already declared their position. They support the abolition of self-government. Philosophically, for the Australian Labor Party to support a Liberal party proposal to abolish self-government on Norfolk Island just beggars belief."
Mr Stanhope is calling for the intervention of the ACT branch of the Labor Party because of its close relationship with the Norfolk Island branch. On Thursday night, the sub-branch backed him.
"The removal of democratic rights from a group of Australians should be resisted - it should never have been countenanced," he said earlier.
"But there's nobody arguing for them ... I would have expected and hoped that Gai Brodtmann, Kate Lundy and Zed Seselja would have done everything within their power to ensure that the views of the people of Norfolk Island were respected and listened to and their desire to retain self-government be fought to the death, but it hasn't happened."
Mr Stanhope said it was bizarre that the proposal to abolish self-government had come from a committee looking at how to enhance tourism on the island.
"This is how bizarre it is: the best way of supporting tourism for Norfolk Island is to abolish the government. The poor people were not even advised that the committee would be making recommendations on their government."

In good weather, the Big Valley Amish community near Lewistown in central Pennsylvania and another Amish settlement about 20 miles away in the Penns Valley used to be connected by two good routes.
But come this winter, there may be no roads for the horse-drawn buggies used by the Amish to travel from one settlement to the other.
That is because the State Department of Transportation last year placed Route 322 off limits to buggies and other nonmotorized vehicles when the road was widened to four lanes. It said the new berms were not wide enough to protect the buggies from cars and trucks.
The Amish generally used Route 322 only in poor weather because they preferred an unpaved mountain forestry road called Siglerville-Millheim Pike. But even a mild snowfall can make the road impassable.
Last spring local advocates for the Amish asked the State Bureau of Forestry to start maintaining the road in the winter.
Amy Griffith, the district forester, said the bureau would not allow snow plowing because it would erode the road. The bureau offered no options to make the road passable in heavier snowfalls.Continue reading the main story

|Fallen Angels
Chazaqiel (Aramaic: זיקיאל, Greek: Εζεκιήλ), also Êzêqêêl, was the 8th Watcher of the 20 leaders of the 200 fallen angels that are mentioned in an ancient work called The Book of Enoch. The name means "cloud of God", which is fitting since it was said that Chazaqiel taught men the knowledge of the clouds, meteorology. Michael Knibb[1] translates this angel as being the "Shooting star of God".

I have FINALLY been able to finish my geography Social Studies notebook unit! This one was tough for me, as it was something I never really learned in school. We always just skipped geography and went straight to Native Americans in our textbooks. You can download this unit at TeachersPayTeachers by clicking here or on the picture below!
I had hoped to finish this over the weekend, but I had to stop and mourn the loss of my sweet kitty, Knox. I adopted Knox (short for Mr. Obnoxious) from the humane society last fall. He was the sweetest, fluffiest boy I knew. He loved going outside, and I couldn't find him when I left for my grandma's before the 4th of July. No big deal, as he would stay out for days at a time. I left out food and water, and went on my way. When I got home, I didn't see him. I waited around a few days, since he wanders, and some kids had picked him up once before. When he wasn't back Friday, I started asking around. My next door neighbors said they had put out food for him and their cat one morning, then found him on their carport later that afternoon. We have no idea what happened to him. He wasn't hit by a car, and didn't have any other marks. I figure he had eaten a bad mouse or gotten into poison left out for mice. He was a great kitty, and I'm glad I got to give him a good home for the last part of his life!

It's raining hot dogs.
On the lower level of Maple Leaf Foods Inc.'s wiener plant in Hamilton, hot dogs are tumbling out of a large hole in the ceiling and bouncing onto a conveyer belt below.
The belt in the "ready-to-eat" portion of the plant carries the hot dogs through the final phases of the process that sees them neatly wrapped into packages, in this case to be branded "Top Dogs." It's a continuous, automated assembly line - one of the better ones that the company has. But it's still easy to spot inefficiencies in this two-storey plant.
It takes about four hours to make a wiener. The process begins in the "formulation area" that houses the raw hot dog batter, a colourful chunky-looking thick goo ("emulsion") that's squished into collagen casings that are then twisted like balloon animals before being smoked, after which the casings come off. Eventually, the dogs make their descent onto the ready-to-eat conveyer belt.
The process stops many times a day to switch to a new type of wiener. Sometimes those "changeovers" take an hour and a half or more.
That is why Maple Leaf believes simplification will be its salvation. At the outset of 2010, the company made wieners using 78 different recipes in 50 different sizes, some of which differed by as little as a few millimetres. Metal tubes and parts must be swapped to switch between sizes. Within the recipes ("formulations") there were eight different combinations of potential allergens (such as milled wheat or soy), and the machinery has to undergo a thorough cleaning between each. Sanitation takes longer here than it would in newer facilities. Last but not least, wieners were being cranked out of six different plants.
It's wiener-making at its most complicated, a legacy of several acquisitions that resulted in Maple Leaf adopting an array of hot dog brands and manufacturing plants. The same convoluted structure can be found in its other meat products and bakery items too. That, the company says, is why its costs are high and profit margins low. And it's the justification for a $1.3-billion turnaround plan that will see the company shed its worst plants, build some shiny new mega-facilities, and spend on the latest technologies. But shareholders are skeptical of the costly plan, and some question whether it wouldn't be better just to sell parts of the firm off.
The pressure on chief executive officer Michael McCain to get it right has hit a crescendo. This month, shareholder activist West Face Capital Inc., which owns about 11 per cent of Maple Leaf, succeeded in shaking up the board and parachuting West Face founder Greg Boland onto it. Maple Leaf is under new scrutiny, with a former enemy in a leadershiprole, leaving little room for error.
"I think [Mr. McCain]realizes that time is of the essence, so it's something they need to move aggressively on," says Tim McElvaine, founder and president of McElvaine Investment Management Ltd., a Maple Leaf shareholder and former director of Humpty Dumpty Snack Foods and Sun-Rype Products Ltd. "But that doesn't mean that you just throw money at it."
The choices that Maple Leaf are confronting are emblematic of those being made throughout Canada's manufacturing sector, which accounts for about 12 per cent of the economy and has been battered by the strong Canadian dollar and the economic downturn.
The realization that the high-flying dollar is likely here to stay is just setting in, said Jayson Myers, chief executive officer of the Canadian Manufacturers and Exporters. "So every company has to weigh the risks of making these investments in new markets, products and technologies against the expectation that if they do so they'll be able to grow their business. And all of this is happening at a time when competitive pressures are more intense than ever before."
Maple Leaf reported its 2010 financial results Thursday and said the weak U.S. dollar is helping U.S. rivals to compete more aggressively on pricing in Canada, where about 61 per cent of the wieners sold come from Maple Leaf.
The company also said that "some early benefits" of its strategic plan have already been realized. "We're making very good progress," Mr. McCain told analysts on a conference call.
Maple Leaf, which has about 21,000 employees worldwide, actually began restructuring more than three years ago but its efforts were waylaid in 2008 by a deadly listeriosis bacteria outbreak linked to one of its plants in Toronto. It's clear that new challenges will erupt, not the least of which is the dramatic "food inflation" that's occurring due to rising costs for everything from hogs to crude oil.
But in the face of short-term obstacles Maple Leaf executives say their plan is what's needed now to position the company for the long term.
Wieners, a mainstay of the firm, are at the forefront of this multi-year strategy.
In November the company announced the closure of its prepared meats plant in Berwick, N.S., which employed about 280 people. This month it said it will be shutting down another plant in Surrey, B.C., affecting about 155 employees.
"When you have hot dogs made in five different plants, you lose the benefits of scale," said Rick Young, Maple Leaf's executive vice-president of transformation (whose business card also reads "shareholder").
Maple Leaf is planning to build a giant new facility for its meat business in the next couple of years, fitted with the latest technology.
Such a facility is already under construction for its Canada Bread subsidiary. The $100-million bakery that's being built just a short drive away from the wiener plant in Hamilton will be Canada's largest. The production of items such as bread, hot dog buns and pitas will shift from three older bakeries in Toronto to this 385,000-square-foot new one.
Maple Leaf is going to have to prove to its shareholders in the quarters ahead that such financial outlays will pay off. "The shareholder group has indicated that return on invested capital is a very important indicator for Maple Leaf," Mr. McElvaine said.

Recently I did a photo shoot at an elementary school.
The assignment was to create a photo library of images for general use focussing on the students and teachers.
I have shot for the same client three times in the past, each time using a different lighting technique.
This time I decided to use my lit reportage style.
This is where I have two assistants follow me in real time lighting the shot with two different light sources lighting the subjects as I move.
You have to work with really good assistants to be able to anticipate where you will move next and have a good understanding as to where to place the lights in real time.
This was a great way to shoot this assignment because I could move at the same pace as the kids capturing real moments as they happened.
What was necessary on my end was to let go of micro managing the lighting and allowing the assistants to light the scene as I moved with the kids. I just had to anticipate the moments in reportage style.
The client really benefits from this by getting a huge volume of shots to work with, as well as authentic moments they wouldn't get in setup shots, but with higher production values, because they are still lit shots.
Here are some examples from the shot.

I recently was the moderator of a panel discussion for an event for asmp New York chapter.
I believe be an assistant is the best way to bridge the gap from graduating from a photography program and starting a career as a professional photographer.
There are so many practical things that you need to know about how to approach an assignment, work with clients, market yourself, to be a successful photographer.
On the second day of the work shop I was one of five different photographers that alternated between groups of four assistants to give them a practical experience as to what is required to be an assistant on a assignment.
I chose to create an editorial portrait experience.
Photo editors always want options to chose from.
If you come back with just one setup, even if it is a great portrait, they always want other options.
So in my practical, we did three setups in each hour session.
This gave them the a real experience of the pace and pressure of a real shoot.
What I wanted to show them was different lighting strategies, and how lighting is so important to crafting and controlling the environment you choose to shoot in.
Here are some samples from the day.

Shooting with my DXO camera, from the hip, without looking through the camera, that is why the framing is off centre, sometimes without headroom. I wanted to capture the concept of beached people of all shapes and sizes.
Its where people are enjoying the sun and sand and sea.
For me this is about capturing what I see as I walk with a camera in the palm of my hand, at hip height.
The idea is to shoot as you walk so people are not aware of the camera.
At the same time walking to where the shots, what draws your eye and creative instincts without looking through the camera.

Just got my DXO camera. I love having it with me. You shoot from the hip, blind. But you capture what you see, hopefully without your subject knowing that you are taking photos.
Real moments. New York has a real gritty feel. I hope I will be able to capture some of this that I feel when walking around.

In January this year I travelled to Liberia to cover a story about a study that was being conducted on ebola victims for Wired magazine.
A very emotional experience photographing people who had experienced just devastating loss in every sense of the word.
Here are some of the pictures.

Wine Spritzer
READY IN: 2mins
Recipe by Kim127
Alot of times, if a bottle of red wine sits open for a couple of days, I find the flavor has changed and I don't enjoy it as much. Instead of throwing it out, I like to make wine spritzers instead. Instead of using ginger ale or seltzer, I really like them made with Fresca. Freshens up the wine and is really tasty! Add more or less Fresca for your tastes. Great for summer evenings on the deck.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 4 ounces red wine
- 4 ounces Fresca soda
- ice
Directions See How It's Made
- Mix red wine and Fresca together over ice.
- Enjoy!

Mexican Silver
Mexican Silver Coins
Mexico is a leading producers of silver, providing about 20% of the international silver mine production. Its large silver and gold deposits made Mexico a notorious precious metal source for a long period of time. La Casa de Moneda de México, also known as the Mexican Mint, was established in 1535 by a Spanish decree and since then has produced stunning gold and silver coins.
The first minted coins were the Mexican peso and the Spanish dollar called eight-real coin. La Casa de Moneda's original minting production is now the Mexican National Cultural Museum. In addition to circulating coins, the Mexican Mint also manufactures commemorative coins. One of the most impressive Mexican Silver Coins is indeed the Silver Mexican Libertad.
This Mexican silver coin was first issued in 1982 and features a depiction of a Mexican mythological love story between the warrior named Popocatépetl and the ancient princess Iztaccíhuatl, represented by two volcanoes which have the same names.
For those with inquiries regarding the Mexican Silver Libertad , please contact a Bullion Exchanges customer service associate at 800.852.6884. You may submit your questions by email at email@example.com, or connect with us via our online live web chat feature.

Kitchens always look messy after cooking. As if a war has taken place in your kitchen. Nobody is ever in the mood for cleaning (apart from the people who suffer of OCD). Kitchens represent quite the challenge.
It might sound surreal, but you can clean your kitchen in 5 minutes or so. There is no magic involved. You just need to be well organized. Set the timer first-just for the fun of it. Then gather all the dirty dishes from every room in your house and bring them to the kitchen.
If you have any pots, strainers, cutting boards or pans lying around you can start washing them by hand or put them in the dishwasher. Start the dishwasher and let it do the hard work. Don't just stand there while the dishwasher works…start washing and drying the counters, clean the microwave, the stove. With one hand wipe those items with a damp cloth and with another hand dry them with a rag.
After you are done stop the timer and see how much it took you. Remember, practice makes perfect. After you follow this routine by heart, it will take you less and less time to clean. You'll do it automatically and more efficient than before.

Series: Superheroes
Title: Part 4
Date: July 16-17, 2016
Speaker: Steve Garcia
Review It:
Hero: Samson
Whenever the LORD raised up a judge for them, he was with the judge and saved them out of the hands of their enemies as long as the judge lived… Judges 2:18
· Rebel
· Repent
· Restore
Again the Israelites did evil in the eyes of the LORD, so the LORD delivered them into the hands of the Philistines for forty years. Judges 13:1
You will become pregnant and have a son whose head is never to be touched by a razor because the boy is to be a Nazirite, dedicated to God from the womb. He will take the lead in delivering Israel from the hands of the Philistines. Judges 13:5
Samson went down to Timnah and saw there a young Philistine woman. 2 When he returned, he said to his father and mother, "I have seen a Philistine woman in Timnah; now get her for me as my wife." Judges 14:1–2
Samson's Criteria for a Wife – Must be attractive (end of list)
Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised. Proverbs 31:30
Like a city whose walls are broken through is a person who lacks self-control. Proverbs 25:28
The rulers of the Philistines went to her and said, "See if you can lure him into showing you the secret of his great strength and how we can overpower him so we may tie him up and subdue him. Each one of us will give you eleven hundred shekels of silver." Judges 16:5
With such nagging she prodded him day after day until he was sick to death of it. Judges 16:16
Then she called, "Samson, the Philistines are upon you!" He awoke from his sleep and thought, "I'll go out as before and shake myself free." But he did not know that the LORD had left him. Judges 16:20
21 Then the Philistines seized him, gouged out his eyes and took him down to Gaza. Binding him with bronze shackles, they set him to grinding grain in the prison. 22 But the hair on his head began to grow again after it had been shaved. Judges 16:21–22
Then Samson prayed to the LORD, "Sovereign LORD, remember me. Please, God, strengthen me just once more, and let me with one blow get revenge on the Philistines for my two eyes." 29 Then Samson reached toward the two central pillars on which the temple stood. Bracing himself against them, his right hand on the one and his left hand on the other, 30 Samson said, "Let me die with the Philistines!" Then he pushed with all his might, and down came the temple on the rulers and all the people in it. Thus he killed many more when he died than while he lived. Judges 16:28–30
God will use me to WIN others or to WARN others!
Discuss It:
· Who is someone with strength that you admire (physical, emotional, spiritual, mental, etc.)? Why?
· Read Judges 16:4-30
· How many times did Delilah try to trick Samson into revealing his secret strength?
· How did Delilah finally get him to tell his secret? (v. 16)
· What did the Philistines do with Samson? (v. 21)
· What was Samson's last request of God? (v. 28)
· How does Samson's story serve as a warning to others?
· In order to avoid a bad ending, how would you have coached Samson earlier in his life?
· How does the story of Samson challenge you personally?
Apply It:
· What is the one thing you need to take away from this study?
· What will help you remember it?
· Is there anything that needs to change in your thinking, actions, or relationships as a result?

Wheat Sweets
Recipe by mianbao
Flavorful sugar cookies made with whole-wheat flour have an appealing tan color. My family has enjoyed them for years. The recipe was originally from a small butter cookie pamphlet many years ago. The prep time does not include cooling and frosting. The cook time will vary depending on the size of your cookie sheets and oven. Please consider it only a rough approximate. The yield is 7 to 8 dozen, depending on the size of the cookies.

text: Short explanation: Is somebody using his white Inspire 1 X3 camera with his Inspire 1 and has an older firmware on the I1 and at the same time is using the same white X3 camera with an OSMO handle that has the latest firmware? Is that working fine? I would really appreciate an answer. Surely somebody must have this setup. ..................................................................................................... I want to update the OSMO firmware to the latest one, but i don't want to update my I1 firmware which right now is on 1.5. Will i still be able to use the X3 camera on my Inspire 1 after i have updated the OSMO with the X3 camera attached to it? I asked DJI about this and they didn't give me an answer on that but they said that when i update the OSMO with the X3 attached to it the recording time will automatically be reduced to 30 minutes even on the Inspire 1 even though i use an older Inspire 1 firmware (1.5), can this really be correct, since i guess its not the X3 that gets updated but the OSMO handle, or am i wrong? Firstly i wonder if i must have the latest 1.7 firmware on the Inspire 1 to use the X3 camera with the Inspire 1 after i have updated the OSMO with the X3 attached to it. And secondly i wonder if the recording time is reduced to 30 minutes on the I1 as well even though i use an older I1 firmware (after the X3 been attached to the OSMO while the OSMO was upgraded with the latest firmware)? I know the bird cannot fly 30 minutes anyway, but i was mostly just curious if what DJI stated is correct?

This summer Above & Beyond are hosting a series of stages across some of the biggest electronic dance music festivals Europe has to offer – celebrating the release of their second artist album "Group Therapy". To get you in the mood we have caught up with some of the artists who will be performing on the Group Therapy Stages to find out more about what they will be playing and what you can expect to hear from them.
This interview is with Jaytech, the long chosen, warm-up DJ of choice for Above & Beyond, who is now taking off as a headline DJ in his own right. Chosen to headline the Anjunadeep room for the label's flagship party at the Miami WMC, he remains the number one headline DJ within the core Anjunadeep family.
Despite his relative youth, Jaytech's prodigious creativity and prolific work rate (he started producing at just 14 and released his first track at 16) have seen him rise up as the most consistent artist on the popular Anjunadeep imprint — even releasing the label's first full artist album through 2008′s "Everything Is Ok" ("Lush, melodic and soaked in electronic groove – a crossover gem" **** DJ Magazine), and hitting number one in the iTunes dance chart with his "Anjunadeep: 02″ mix compilation in 2010. ("Compilation of the month **** Mixmag.) February 2011 saw the release of Jaytech's most promising mix work to date, "Anjunadeep: 03″.
Proof of his rising stock behind the turntables, a packed DJ diary has recently taken in dates at Ibiza's Amnesia, London's Brixton Academy and Japan's world-famous Womb. In the past year he has also traveled the vast corners of his Australian homeland with the Future Music Festival and taken his uplifting and perfectly paced sound on tour in America — more recently with Above & Beyond for their TATW350 event in Los Angeles, where his set was broadcast live across the globe to a listen-in audience of 30 million.

Rock Scissors Paper Fingerplay #1
Subscribe to our YouTube channel to stay up-to-date with our latest videos!
Language Focus Other songs about: animals & insects, fingerplay, left/right
Developing dexterity and rhythm. Counting to three. "Rock, scissors, paper." "Right hand." "Left hand." Animal vocabulary (butterfly, snail, crab, lion).
Rock Scissors Paper Fingerplay #1 Lyrics and Actions
Key Gestures
Rock - Make a fist.
Scissors - Two fingers extended and separated.
Paper - Hand open with fingers flat.
♫ Rock, scissors, paper. [Rock, scissors, and paper gestures.]
Rock, scissors, paper.
One, two, three. [Count to three with your fingers.]
Play with me. [Point to your chest with your thumbs.]
Right hand PAPER!
Left hand PAPER!
[Connect your thumbs together and make a butterfly.]
It's a butterfly! [Fly your butterfly up and down and all around…if you like, pause the music here and spend some time flying around the room!]
Rock, scissors, paper.
Rock, scissors, paper.
One, two, three.
Play with me.
Right hand ROCK!
Left hand SCISSORS!
[Place the rock on top of the scissors, the rock becomes a snail shell and the scissors become the snail's antennae.]
It's a snail! [Again, pause the music here if you like…have the snails crawl around the room and talk to each other…talk with your kids about snails!]
Rock, scissors, paper.
Rock, scissors, paper.
One, two, three.
Play with me.
Right hand SCISSORS!
Left hand SCISSORS!
[The scissors become a crab's pinchers. Hold them up to the side of your face and open and close your pinchers.]
It's a crab! [Hold your pinchers up and walk around the room sideways!]
Rock, scissors, paper.
Rock, scissors, paper.
One, two, three.
Play with me.
Right hand PAPER!
Left hand PAPER!
[Place your hands on both sides of the face to simulate a lion's mane.]
Oh no! It's a lion! [Growl and stalk around the room!] ♫
Before singing the song, demonstrate the three hand gestures (rock, paper, and scissors). Practice by calling out the different gestures and checking that the kids make the correct one. Challenge them to make them as fast as they can. Have the kids take turns calling out rock, scissors, or paper to each other.
With slightly older kids (4 and over), spend time practicing "right hand" and "left hand." When you are first practicing right and left, try turning around so that you are facing the same direction as the children when you raise your hands. Or, if facing them, mirror left and right so that they raise the correct hand.
Once the children show command of the gestures, you are ready to sing the song!
