Homily for 3/2/08 - LJ - The Last Judgment
Expand Messages
- Matt 25:31-46
There are no end, it seems to the predictions of doom. The world will
end we are told by some in an overheated greenhouse of our own creation.
The ice caps will melt, the oceans will rise, there will be floods and
disasters. The ecosystem will be polluted and ruined and food will be
scarce. The only living things to survive will be cockroaches. Others
warn that we will annihilate ourselves with nuclear weapons, poisoning
the atmosphere and raising a cloud of dust so great that it will bring
on another ice age. What isn't destroyed by war will slowly die off from
disease and hunger. It seems that every day there is a new pandemic
threatening us or some new terrorist threat arising. It seems as though
the whole world has gone mad and everyone is intent on destroying
everyone else.
In the midst of all this, our Lord reminds us that the world will indeed
come to an end and that the signs of that end will be "agitation, wars,
civil war, hunger, earthquakes… Men will suffer from fear, and will die
from expectation of calamity. There will be no life, no joy of life…
There will also be a falling away from faith such that 'when the Son of
Man cometh shall he find faith upon the earth?' (Lk 18:8) Men will
become proud, ungrateful, rejecting Divine Law. And there will be also
be a weakening of moral life. There will be an exhaustion of good and an
increase of evil." (St John of Shanghai and San Francisco). All of this
precedes the second coming of Christ and the final and Great Judgment.
As terrible as the condition of the world at the end sounds, it is only
the prelude to what we will experience standing naked and exposed before
But all is not lost! There is hope even for us. God has given us this
warning not so that we would fall into terror and despair, but rather
that we might in all sobriety begin to prepare for that inevitable day
when we will stand before Him. It is true that all things shall be
revealed and we will be seen by God as we are, and yet there is time to
acquire the Holy Spirit and to cloth ourselves in the grace that God
gives. In this way we will no longer be alienated from God but we will
be united with Him. His presence will not bring us terror but rather
great joy. We will not shrink from Him but we will run to Him and
embrace Him.
Today, as we prepare for Great Lent, our annual ascetic effort we pause
to remember the Great Judgment. We are reminded that we will indeed meet
God face to face, that there is no avoiding this Judgment. This reminder
is given to us so that as we enter Great Lent, we might have some
awareness of the task that we undertake. This is an annual time of
sobriety and of ascetic struggle so that we might more easily lay aside
our attachment to the things of this world – its pleasures and its
sufferings – and instead focus on nurturing in ourselves the life that
Christ gives to us. This is what we do when we fast. The end of Great
Lent is Holy Week which leads us through the experience of Jesus
Christ's suffering, betrayal, trial, crucifixion, death and burial. We
do not only watch as spectators, but as participants in the life of
Christ we too suffer with Him, we ascend the Cross with Him, we die and
are buried with Him. All this is necessary so that we might rise with
Him and live in Him.
During the fast, we die – a little at a time – to this life. We set
aside all but the bare necessities of life. We eat simply without luxury
and in limited quantity in order to learn that our true sustenance is
from God. We set aside worldly entertainments so that we might focus our
attention and energies on our own spiritual growth and development. We
pray more so that we might become more sensitive to the presence of God
in our lives. Little by little, as Lent progresses, we die to the world
that we might live with Christ.
St John describes the scene to us: The end of the world and the coming
of the Great Judgment will be signified by appearance of the sign of the
Son of God – that is the sign of the Cross. "The end of the world
signifies not the annihilation of the world, but its transformation.
Everything will be transformed suddenly, in the twinkling of an eye. The
dead will rise in new bodies: their own, but renewed, Just as the Savior
rose in His own body and on it were traces of wounds from the nails and
spear, yet it possessed new faculties and in this sense it was a new body.
"And the Lord will appear in glory on the clouds. Trumpets will sound:
loud and with power! They will sound in the soul and the conscience! All
will become clear to the human conscience. The Prophet Daniel speaking
of the Last Judgment, relates how the Ancient of days, the Judge, sits
on his throne, and before Him is a fiery stream. Fire is a purifying
element; it burns sin. Woe to a man if sin has become a part of his
nature: then the fire will burn the man himself."
Sin finds its way into our nature and settles there like a parasite. If
that sin is not rooted out, it becomes a part of us and invades our
whole being. When we will be exposed to the river of fire at the Last
Judgment that sin will burn – and if it is an integral part of our
nature, we too will burn with it. But we are given the ability, the
opportunity and the resources by God to root out that sin, to remove it
from our soul – even if it is already attached itself to us. The grace
of God that is poured out upon us is an effective medicine to loosen the
hold of sin upon us so that it no longer dominates and controls us and
we can turn away from it and eliminate it from ourselves. This we do by
repentance and confession of sin. While the grace of God cuts off the
hold of sin on us, we too must loosen our hold on the sin. This we do by
ascetic labor, by fasting, by self denial, by repentance and by
heartfelt prayer. These are the activities of Great Lent that we engage
in. These activities lead us to the Cross of Christ, they lead us to
death. But death does not annihilate us, but rather it transforms us.
Death is not the end of life, but rather the door to the Resurrection;
the door to our new life.
Just as those who are infested with sin will be burned by the river of
fire, those who are united to the grace of God will be warmed and
ignited by the river of fire so that we will become radiant and glowing
as gold glows in the refiner's fire. The fire will not burn us, but will
enter into us and enlighten us and empower us and fill us with the
warmth and heat of God's love. Indeed this river is not fire at all, but
the love of God which burns away impurity and which warms the very
essence of those who are already filled with the love of God.
Great Lent is a preparation for the Great and final Judgment. In that
day we will meet God face to face, we will pass through the river of the
fire of God's love. If we are filled with sin, we will be burned by the
fire of that love, but if we are filled with grace, that love will fill
us and will warm us and will become the means by which we are united
with God. That love will become the life of Christ in us and as we are
ready to participate in that love, so also we will participate in the
life of the Holy Trinity. During Great Lent we will come finally to the
cross of Christ, we will come finally to our own death. But the cross is
not the end, but rather we will pass through the cross, through death,
through hades and on to the triumph of the Glorious Resurrection and we
will rise with Christ to new life in Him.

Cuttack (The Telegraph):
KKR captain Gautam Gambhir was pleased with his team's performance on Sunday. He said that they key was to keep it simple.
The following are excerpts:
The game plan
We thought that we have to play till the end... The ball was keeping low and it was difficult to play strokes. So, we needed to keep it simple… I am glad that the team performed in unison.
On learning from mistakes
As I keep saying that we have to learn from our mistakes… We never thought that we could lose this match.
The memories (of the Eden) never came back. We played Kings XI Punjab a couple of days back and we won by eight wickets. I think that says a lot of about our performance… It shows that we have the quality to bounce back.
Also Read: Kolkata take rain-hit encounter; Deccan remain winless
Debabrata Das keeping his cool in the final stages
When I first had a look at him at the nets, I felt that this guy had a lot of potential. If he keeps going like this, he can play for India one day… He has a whole range of shots in his repertoire.
He is the guy to watch out for in the IPL. With nine games still to go, you can expect something special from him
Yusuf Pathan's failure
For me, Yusuf Pathan is the biggest batsman in this format... He is someone who can come good on any day…
If we win games without a major contribution from Pathan, that shows the depth in our squad. But I am hundred per cent sure that he will win us two to three games. He is a match-winner…
The depth in KKR's batting
We are far below than playing our best cricket. I have always maintained that we have got a lot of potential in the dressing room. Even when I sit in the dressing room and look around, I feel that we have great players in our side and they are all match-winners. So, we still feel that our best is yet to come.
Obviously, when you are the captain of the team which have a lot of talent, you feel comfortable that you have options to replace a player. We also have a lot of strength in our batting line-up…

With the frequency of reports that have surfaced of government agencies buying massive amounts of weapons and ammunition we can't help but wonder why agencies like the BLM and the Postal Service need that kind of fire power or what it's going to be used for. However a recent report by the Washington Times outlines not only how it would be used, but that in 2010 Obama issued a directive allowing the use of military force on Americans within the U.S. borders.
Directive No. 3025.18 is titled "Defense Support of Civil Authorities" and along with giving Obama the authority to use the force of the military against American citizens at home, it also allows military commanders to have the authority even if Obama isn't around to authorize it in times of "civil unrest."
The directive states that the use of "military force" is authorized when it's "necessary to protect the federal property or functions." It then lists the "military assistance" as including "loans of arms, ammunition, vessels and aircraft," and clearly states that it's to engage civilians during times of unrest, according to the Times.
Police Forced To Reassure Residents They Won't Be Shot At From Armored Vehicles
It additionally authorizes the use of unarmed drones by the secretary of defense, however states that drone capable of firing missiles aren't allowed.
As the report continues it addresses the heavy militarization of federal agencies and its impact on civil liberties under the Obama regime. It explained that defense analysts have been talking about the buildup of militarized units within agencies that have nothing to do with security, "notably the creation of Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) teams."
Such a buildup raises serious questions as to whether Obama is undermining civil liberties "under the guise of counterterrorism and counter narcotics efforts. This sentiment was also echoed by Edward Snowden in his interview with NBC on Wednesday night when he said the government "exploits" terrorism to abuse out liberty.
Civil Unrest And Martial Law On The Brink Of Reality
"Other agencies with SWAT teams reportedly include the Department of Agriculture, the Railroad Retirement Board, the Tennessee Valley Authority, the Office of Personnel Management, the Consumer Product Safety Commission, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the Education Department."
"The militarization of federal agencies," it continues. "Under little known statutes that permit deputization of security officials, comes as the White House has launched verbal attacks on private citizens' ownership of firearms despite the fact that most gun owners are law-abiding citizens."
The chilling details of this directive should be enough to make the hair on anybody's neck stand up. Written in 2010, it really brings validity to the claims that military leaders who refused to fire on Americans were purged by Obama, and also getting rid of those who didn't agree with Obama's ideology.
As we learn more about what this regime has been doing and the actions that have been taken, it becomes remarkably clear that it's planning for widespread civil unrest. The only question that remains is what will be the trigger that causes it.

Your title is also a suitable summary for my thoughts when I saw yesterday's images of Trump and LTG McMaster sitting next to each other on a sofa. McMaster's uniform provided the least of the contrast.

Use AWS Roles and Secure Your Access Keys with MFA
I hope by now everyone who uses AWS web console has enabled MFA. That means for both root account and for all IAM users.
I think that alone is not enough. We all use api-tokens (Access Keys) attached to our users to be able to use different cli tools from aws-cli to Terraform. This api-tokens are not protected by MFA and they can be. Also their access does no have any expiry and again they can have.
Just imagine you do a series of mistakes and someone gets your access key credentials. You are done.
You can reduce that risk by using AWS STS and assuming roles. It is easy to setup and you can protect your access by MFA. As a bonus you will also have a hard-limit of maximum one hour for any role you assume before you need to authenticate again.
You need to have your aws-cli installed. Then using web-console create your temporary account that will do the rest of setup.
At the end copy your credentials into your aws config. It is normally at ~/.aws/credentials.
I have the rest of the code at my github.com/kaveh/aws-setup.I assume you will use it or you just review and change that code to what you like.
RolesList group
This will be the group which allows listing of current roles for users. After setup is complete, users can list available roles and try to assume them if they have enough access.
$ cat << EOF > roles_list.json
"Version": "2012-10-17",
"Statement": [
"Sid": "Stmt1483900802000",
"Effect": "Allow",
"Action": [
"Resource": [
$ aws iam create-group --group-name roles_list
$ aws iam put-group-policy --group-name roles_list --policy-document file://roles_list.json --policy-name roles_list
For each user you need these commands
$ aws iam create-user --user-name myuser
$ aws iam add-user-to-group --user-name myuser --group-name roles_list
# Now you will create a profile for your user to access aws console through web. First generate a skeleton to fill and then create the profile.
$ aws iam create-login-profile --generate-cli-skeleton > create-login-profile.json
$ aws iam create-login-profile --cli-input-json file://create-login-profile.json
Now share the temporary access credentials with your user. You should already force MFA policy for all your accounts. So user needs to reset his password and enable MFA. Then user can create a access key.
Next you need to setup your roles and ask user to assume them using his access-key and MFA.
For each role you need an "assume policy document". This policy will say who is trusted to assume the role. We will also enforce presence of MFA for assuming the role.
"Version": "2012-10-17",
"Statement": [
"Effect": "Allow",
"Principal": {
"Action": "sts:AssumeRole",
"Condition": {
"Bool": {
"aws:MultiFactorAuthPresent": "true"
Save that file in current directory as supervisor.json.
Now create a "supervise" role:
$ aws iam create-role --role-name supervise --assume-role-policy-document file:///supervisor.json
$ aws iam attach-role-policy --role-name supervise --policy-arn arn:aws:iam::aws:policy/IAMFullAccess
That is all. You can continue to create new roles and add trusted users to assume them in your "assume-role-policy-document" similar to supervisor.json.
How to Use Roles
Now your devops team need to assume these roles. They should have their aws-cli setup and their MFA enabled.
I have a simple script as a helper. Using it you can list and assume roles.
$ source <(curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kavehmz/dev/master/home/share/aws_assumerole.sh)
$ assume list
$ assume supervise myuser 647895
Assuming role of arn:aws:iam::999999999999:role/supervise until [2016-12-29T18:44:20Z]
From last command onward whatever I do will have "supervise" access. But this time ONLY for one hour and if I want to assume the role I need to have a MFA code as you see.
# Wrong 2FA and my Token is useless
$ assume supervise myuser 111111
An error occurred (AccessDenied) when calling the AssumeRole operation: MultiFactorAuthentication failed with invalid MFA one time pass code.
Fail to assume the role
This is a just a sample of what you can do. I have some simple setup here:
aws-setup - Demonstration of using roles and assuming-role with 2fa to avoid using admin tokens an with no expiry.github.com
You get the idea. Implement it preferably using Terraform or another standard method.
That all.
Stay safe.

Benghazi's Banksy by Kelvin Brown
An audio slideshow about one of Libya's new street artists, 22 year-old Ibrahim Hamid. During the four decades that Col Muammar Gaddafi ruled Libya, his official portraits were everywhere. Now that he has been overthrown, artists are revelling in their new-found freedom and turning this tradition on its head. Caricatures of the vilified leader have been painted on walls throughout the country. Hamid, an engineering student, started painting caricatures of Col Gaddafi while he was manning a checkpoint during the revolution.

Galaxy S7, S7 edge, and their LED View Cover cases get certified
Lo and behold, the Galaxy S7 is arriving very soon, if the barrage of leaks and tips about it is any indication. The handset is coded as SM-G930 internally, and will potentially arrive accompanied by an "edge" version with the internal reference SM-G935 (last year's numbers for the S6 and S6 edge were SM-G920 and SM-G925, respectively). Those two number have now appeared in the database of the Indonesian certification body, hinting that they are ready for the spotlight in the not-so-distant future.
On a similar note, our own certification body here in the US, the FCC, has rubberstamped two cases that look conspicuously like coming out of Samsung's famed View Cover line, and has marked them EF-NG930 and NG935, respectively. We already heard that Samsung is prepping the usual batch of official accessories for the Galaxy S7 (not that it would be any surprise), and yet the FCC certification is another confirmation that the new Samsung flagship will be arriving with its full entourage very soon. The cases' description states an "LED View Cover", though, so you can expect a whole bunch of shining dots at the front to form a display of the time, date, and other tidbits while the case is closed.

BOB MARLEYSoul Almighty
Anansi Records
0 Stars
BARELY INTO '96 and already a front-runner for worst album
of the year. Soul Almighty is a travesty. Through no fault
of Marley's, the album sounds like an unholy cross between thick
Trenchtown grooves and some Holiday Inn reggae band drunk on daquiris.
Following the dubious methods of posthumous Jimi Hendrix producer
Alan Douglas, Danny Sims and David Simmons saw fit to take unreleased
Marley tracks and scrub most of the original instrumentation in
favor of drum machines, cheesy organ and heavy-metal guitar. In
a stunning move of audacity, one song has been turned into what
can only be called the world's first Rasta Power Metal ballad.
The shame is that Bob sounds in pretty good form when you can
hear him over the din. Horrible stuff unless you believe that
if he were alive today, Marley would be jammin' on your grandmother's
GIANT SANDBackyard Barbecue Broadcast
Goods And Services
THIS IS A PAIR o' live recs from some damn Tucson band. Backyard is culled from two WFMU-FM (New Jersey) radio broadcasts. The July '94 segment is one-half improvisational genius (Elms even segues into a couple of Friends Of Dean Martinez numbers), one-third "unplugged"-style pickin' 'n' grinnin' for a small outdoor audience (Gelb playing occasional mad scientists with the effects) and several eighths' worth of hemp-fueled inspiration. The April '95 in-studio cuts (with Mike Semple in the lineup) include a sizzling, feedbacky "Lean" and the good timey "Get To Leave." Up close and personal this be. (An unlisted bonus track from '93 is hidden at disc's end.)
Goods, recorded in '95 in Tucson, New York, Germany and
Holland, is more focused in a pure "rock" sense and
sports a denser, more expansive production. Opener "Back
To The Black & Grey" quickly establishes the electric
Sand's strengths: snarling geetar blooze-skronk over a monsoonoid
rhythm section throb, plus some wonderfully malevolent singing.
From there it's headlong into the "Solomon's Ride" vortex,
a bizarre detour around Carly Simon's "You're So Vain,"
and finally tossed onto the forgiving shores of a sloppy-tender
"Trickle Down System."

A DMK Production
A DMK Production
Bryant is your fourteen year old son. Bryant is subject to spanking if needed but it has not been necessary to spank him in almost two years. Bobby is also fourteen and is Bryant's very best friend. The boys have known each other and been close since Bobby's family moved next door to you when both boys were three.
Bobby is over today and he and Bryant are in Bryant's room listening to music and (supposedly) playing video games. The boys are practically inseparable and so they are usually together at either your house or Bobby's house.
You get the urge to go get a milk shake at the local diner and decide to invite Bryant and Bobby to go with you. You go to
Bryant's room and open the door to ask the boys if they want to go get a shake with you. Yes, normally you would knock, especially on a closed door, but it simply slipped your mind.
You are surprised at what you see but Bryant seems even more surprised.

There are times in a boxer's career in which he must step up.
Many fighters are prospects for a long time before they become contenders. But the path between prospect and contender is sometimes blocked by someone who has nothing to lose.
Dallas fighter Roberto Marroquin will face such an obstacle Saturday night.
Marroquin will fight in his first professional main event against Frankie Leal in a 10-round featherweight bout at the WinStar World Casino in Thackerville, Okla.
Marroquin is that young prospect who has signed with Top Rank and must now move to contender status. He is undefeated in 19 fights as a professional with 14 knockouts.
His power will be tested by Leal, who is 15-5-3 and has been knocked down three times in his last two bouts. Leal hasn't won a fight since 2009 but is the type of opponent Marroquin needs.
"He's got to be ready to step up to the next level," said Gabriel Marroquin, Roberto's father and trainer. "He's ready to go 10 rounds, something we haven't done before, and we're moving down in weight some for this fight, so we're pretty anxious."
Roberto Marroquin is one of a talented group of fighters in the featherweight division. If Marroquin wins Saturday night, it must be by knockout and look impressive -- two difficult feats. But they are possible, especially with Leal's three losses by KO and his recent knockdowns.
Marroquin would probably meet highly regarded contender Teon Kennedy (17-0) from Philadelphia with a win in Thackerville.
"You want a fighter to be ambitious and hungry," Top Rank matchmaker Bruce Trampler said of Marroquin. "It's good he's chomping at the bit."
Marroquin is getting the respect from the governing bodies. He's ranked 12th by the WBO and 14th by the IBF in the featherweight division.
He should get a title shot this year, if all goes well.
"I have a lot of confidence in Top Rank, they've made a lot of champions in the past," Marroquin said. "I just know I can do the job and all I can do is show up 100 percent mentally and physically and be on top of my game and not be worried about all that. I personally think I am ready."
The first step for Marroquin is beating Leal in the main event. There is a different kind of pressure that comes with being the headliner, something Marroquin has never experienced. The eight-bout fight card is sold out, and there's a large group from Dallas expected to attend the event.
The largest crowd Marroquin has fought in front of was about 30,000 during the early stages of a fight card at Cowboys Stadium last year. He knocked out Samuel Sanchez in the second round in March of 2010, then returned to the venue a few months later and scored another knockout, this time in the first round over Francisco Dominguez.
"It's pressure knowing I'm going to be in the main event for the first time," Marroquin said. "I was telling my dad, whenever I have a fight I'm the co-main event or on the undercard and we show up in the dressing room four or five hours before the fight. Now I'm the main event, I can stay in the hotel room, relax and show up around 7 in the evening. It's just going to be a great feeling."
Also on the fight card, Baltimore Ravens safety Tommy Zbikowski will have his fourth professional fight when he takes on Blake Warner from Oklahoma City. Zbikowski is being trained by Emanuel Steward and conducted his camp in Detroit.

text: OAKLAND Heres what Brett Anderson said Monday about his pitching style heading into a must-win Game 3 against the Detroit Tigers:My breaking ball is my bread and butter. Ill try to use my fastball to get ground balls and keep my pitch count down and get deeper in the ballgame.Making his first start since leaving an outing in Detroit with a right oblique strain after allowing three runs in 2.1 innings, Anderson stuck to his premeditated plan and it worked to perfection.They pitched and played a perfect game, Tigers manager Jim Leyland said after the As cut his series lead to 2-1 with a 2-0 win. You have to tip your hat to them. Nothing you could do about it. He had a good curveball, had a very good breaking ball.Anderson mixed his breaking ball with a lively fastball to work six scoreless innings and allow his manager Bob Melvin to turn the ball over to his premium bullpen arms in Ryan Cook, Sean Doolittle and Grant Balfour to complete the shutout.We just didnt do much offensively and you credit their pitching, Leyland said after watching his hitters go 2-for-10 with five strikeouts following Anderson's exit. Their bullpen is really nasty. Cook, Doolittle, Balfour, theyre really good. And their starter tonight gave them what they needed. It set up perfect for them tonight. They took advantage of that and they earned it. Pretty simple.Game 3 started simply enough for Anderson, who struck out the first two batters he faced in a 1-2-3 first inning that required just eight pitches. But the next frame was anything but simple. Tigers slugger Prince Fielder hit a line drive that appeared headed for a sure hit at least off the centerfield wall if not over it. But Coco Crisp used his speed to get to the wall and his legs to leap over it and rob Fielder of a likely home run. That ended up being the only fly ball out of Andersons night. He got ten groundouts and six more by way of the strikeout.I think Coco gave them a lot of momentum when he took the home run away from Fielder, Leyland said.Prince wasnt willing to give Crisp credit for shifting the momentum of the game, but he did tip his hat to a player who just two days earlier cost his team immensely when he dropped a fly ball in a crucial spot in Game 2.I thought I had a hit, Fielder said. It was a good play. Thats what hes supposed to do.Fielders frustration was just starting to mount, however. He stepped back into the batters box against Cook in the seventh and hit a line drive to shallow left that Yoenis Cespedes charged and caught as he fell into a tuck and roll.Tried to go under coverage; couldnt go over it. But they caught that one too, Fielder said with a dry wit that was fitting for a 200 million man that went 0-for-4, including a game-ending double play. Its frustrating. But these are good teams youre playing. Theyre going to make those plays; thats why theyre here.Anderson, even though he was limited to just six regular season starts due to Tommy John surgery and the oblique strain, is a big reason why the As are here and still alive and kicking in this playoff series. He showed no signs of rust in his first career postseason start, even though he admitted after the game that he was pitching through pain.He was able to establish that fastball in and hes got that tough slider and that breaking ball he was able to mix in, Tigers catcher Gerald Laird said. He kind of settled in and found his groove and we just couldnt get him out of it.Anderson only needed 80 pitches, which Melvin later said was a predetermined pitch count, to make it through his six shutout innings because he was consistently hitting As catcher Derek Norris target.He didnt throw too many mistakes, Fielder said. Curveball was working. He hit his spotsthat always helps.Leyland wasnt surprised the As starter was so sharp despite the layoff. He explained that it was his faith in Melvin, not his knowledge of Anderson, that led to his high expectations.Bob Melvin is pretty smart, Leyland said. If he had not felt totally comfortable with him he would not have pitched him in this game they dont do foolish things here.Anderson made Leylands hitters look foolish and that made the Coliseums capacity crowd get so loud that it impressed Oaklands guests.The crowd was really electric tonight and got them going, Laird said. This is the environment we thought it would be like.Tigers starter Anibal Sanchez, who pitched well but couldnt match Anderson, said that it was the loudest stadium he had pitched in.Detroit they have pretty good fans, Sanchez said. Tigers fans really cheer for the team. They support the team and give you a loud ovation for everything. But the fans here are so loud you cant hear anything from your teammates, so you just hear fans yell. But its really fun.With his Tigers still up 2-1 in the series, Sanchez may avoid a Kangaroo Court fine for calling a loss in enemy territory fun, but plenty of his teammates are not sleeping on the As.We just know theyre a great team, period, Laird said. To win your division, especially beating Texas out in the West, we knew what we were coming into. We just got to come out here and win one game. We knew they werent going to roll over; we knew they were going to come ready to play and they did tonight.

Syrian President Bashar al-Assad may be rightly baffled by Washington's jumbled, somewhat indecisive approach to renewed engagement with his country.
One the one hand, the Obama administration has given some clear signals suggesting it wants better ties with the Arab state in the heart of the Middle East. On the other, the White House has made some moves which suggest exactly the opposite.
Washington's ties with Damascus have been strained by Syria's three-decade alliance with Iran and U.S. allegations of meddling in the affairs of Iraq, Syria's neighbor to the east.
Syrian support for the Lebanese Shiite group Hezbollah and Palestinian Islamist movement Hamas, which rules Gaza, have also proved a stumbling block. Both factions, considered terrorist organizations by the U.S. government, are seen in Syria - and the wider Arab world -- as legitimate resistance movements and political parties.
Former President George W. Bush imposed economic and diplomatic sanctions on Syria in May 2004.
The U.S. Embassy in Damascus has been without an ambassador since February 2005, when the Bush administration recalled Margaret Scobey in response to the assassination of Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Hariri. Syria's foes in Lebanon accused Damascus of being behind the bombing, allegations Syria has repeatedly denied.
Since taking the oath, President Obama has cautiously sought to improve ties with Syria, and U.S. lawmakers have made a flurry of visits to Damascus.
Deputy Foreign Minister Fayssal al-Mekdad, a leading figure in Syrian foreign policy, also visited Washington.
Sen. John Kerry wrapped up an undisclosed two-day trip to Damascus this weekend for talks with Assad to try and breathe some life into the stumbling peace process, "as part of his capacity as the chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee," according to one U.S. Embassy official in Damascus.
The source refused to go into the specifics of the discussion.
Syrian Foreign Minister Walid Mouallem welcomed the visit, which was not made public earlier by the Syrian state-run media, and said Damascus would do whatever it could to help push peace in the Middle East.
The visit was another positive signals from the U.S.
Earlier this month, despite the sanctions, the U.S. government approved a plan to upgrade Western aircraft in Syria's passenger jet fleet, which includes American-made Boeing 747 and French Airbus 320 jets -- both of which require U.S. parts. That was another encouraging step.
Perhaps most symbolically, Obama nominated in February career diplomat Robert Ford to be America's first ambassador to Syria in five years, though his appointment has yet to be confirmed by the U.S. Senate.
However, hopes of rapprochement between the U.S. and Syria were dashed this month by a blunt charge from Mr. Obama himself.
"Syria still poses an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security, foreign policy, and economy of the United States," said the U.S. leader as he renewed the sanctions for another year.
The statement suggests Syria has fallen from the pages of Mr. Obama's good books and that the relationship with Washington may be coarser for some time.
The positive momentum took another hit later when Israel claimed Damascus was sending advanced weaponry to Lebanon's Hezbollah militants -- Scud missiles which could theoretically increase the group's ability to strike targets anywhere inside the Jewish state.
Damascus has strongly denied the allegations and suggested Israel was searching for an excuse to start a new war in the region.
Lebanese Prime Minister Saad Hariri has also dismissed the accusations, comparing them to claims that Iraq had unconventional weapons before the American-led invasion in 2003. The U.N. has also refuted the charges.
However, 12 Republican senators, in a letter to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton last week, claimed that Ford's appointment would be a concession, even a reward. They suggested "prompt punitive" action against Syria instead.
It's no secret what the Americans want from Syria, but it's harder to guess what cards Assad might be prepared to put on the table.
Syrian officials say they will not make concessions for free. The West, they argue, should not expect much as Damascus will not break its alliance with Iran, nor will it abandon Hezbollah or Hamas before it hears an offer on a comprehensive peace deal between Arabs and Israelis.
"The West should realize that the region has changed and that the language, policies and approaches that it used to use before have become unacceptable," Assad told French Foreign Minister Bernard Kouchner, who arrived in Damascus Saturday night.
"If the West wants to see stability and security in our region, it should start playing an effective role in curbing Israel and stopping its extremist and grave attitude," added the Syrian leader.

U.S. Senator David Vitter (R-La.) promises not to suck as bad as Bobby Jindal once elected governor, and we wholeheartedly believe and support him in his quest to, uh, not suck.
There. I just gave you the Cliff's Notes version of the Times-Picayune's second endorsement of Vitter's Louisiana gubernatorial bid – an editorial encore that calls into question whether this once vaunted New Orleans institution should be entrusted to pontificate about anything more substantive than the Saints' desperate need to fire defensive coordinator Rob Ryan.

How to find a save button for saving forms on my tab.Asked by mrvedel on December 29, 2015 at 03:23 PM
Hey..I missing one funktion in my form. Maybe it´s allready are there some where, but i don´t find it.
I need a button funktion to save my forms in my tab. I´m using this form to rapport my work to customers. I like to save it for make a billing later on.
Until now I send it home with e-mail, but now I´m tired off this. I get a lot of e-mails, it´s very easey to miss a rapport.
Thanks for help
I am not quite sure what you mean Peter.
Do you wish to type some details into your form and then save the data on it so that you can come back to it at a later time, or do you by some chance (based on the email part) wish to have a way to get the URL of the form so that you can open it in your tab and come back to it later?
If it is something completely different do let us know about it in more details and we would be happy to assist :)
Ok, I try to explain it better.
My desire is to be able to insert a button function on my forms that are modified to pdf so I can save my completed forms for later use to make an invoice. I use my Samsung Tab at work, and it has no save function in pdf files. But if the option was on the form, it would solve the problem.
There is a transmit button and the print button, but no save button appears in the forms build-up functions.
I want to save it in a map on "clouds" called Rushfiles that I can open at home.
I´m use google translate to write this.. :-)
JotForm Developer
Hi Peter,

For Google Drive,
For Dropbox,

People always assume that when you are at a certain age, you should look forward to dating/courtship/engagement/marriage/sex/babies/family life. Well, I decide that I will stay single for the rest of my life.
I am convinced that I am an aromantic asexual. I experience no romantic or sexual attraction to anyone. In my entire life, only one guy expressed interest in me and asked me for my phone number, but I didn't reciprocate. At the time, I didn't understand why a random stranger who stalked me wanted my phone number. I asked why. He said I looked attractive. I thought he was being a creepy stalker.
Online, one person reports nudity is enough to trigger sexual arousal in a young male. I don't think I have ever been sexually aroused or "horny", even when I see someone naked. Though, to be honest, I have never seen anyone naked before. Sure, there is online porn, which features a lot of naked people, but I always end up thinking, "So, this is arousing to someone? People have no qualms about STD transmission? Where are the condoms? Is that a real penis? Why do people like to shave their pubic hair? Do people seriously get aroused when they engage in unprotected sex?" So, I'm not aroused by naked people in porn.
Given that sexual arousal is required for coitus, I think there is no point for me to be in a primarily sexual relationship. I may get a pass in a sexless relationship. On the other hand, I'd rather not enter any relationship with a male, because of Number 2 below.
2. Babies
If I were male and happen to be in a relationship with a female partner, then I would welcome the prospect of children. At least I don't have to be the one who carries a child for 9 months. But because I am female, having a male partner means I have to be the one to carry the child for 9 months. Plus, I would have to be extremely careful with what I do with my body, because EVERYTHING I do will eventually affect the health of the baby. If the baby is defected, then the defect is my fault, and I will have to support a baby that will never be able to support itself. After the birth, I will have to take care of the child, which leads to Number 3.
3. More Responsibilities
Having a child is a big responsibility, and there may or may not be any beneficial return. A parent is scrutinized and judged by others for parenting practices. A parent must provide more than just food, water, shelter, and social interaction; the parent must provide education, healthcare, toys, diapers, and et cetera. And all these responsibilities occur at once! I'd rather take care of a pet fish and work my way up to higher-maintenance animals, like turtles and hamsters and rabbits and cats and dogs. Then, if I have some spare time and money, I may adopt a child. I think adopting a healthy child is much more preferable for me than having a baby without knowing the risks.
4. Less Money For Me
The prospect of having a significant other and children means less money for myself. I am too greedy and selfish to share resources with another human being. Keeping a pet is different. The pet is expected to respect you. In contrast, I have spoken with some older people who are currently raising teenagers. They say that children respect parents at a young age, but when they become teenagers, they start to rebel and then as they turn into adults, they start looking up to their parents again. Dogs and cats are bred to have a mild temperament, and they will always love you because you'll the one giving them tasty treats. Also, dogs can't eat chocolate. So, all the chocolate is MINE!
