COLAC Otway Shire Council is considering banning cars from the Colac Botanic Gardens.
The council's public open space strategy said removing cars from the botanic gardens could "address the current conflict with pedestrian use of the gardens in the proposed new master planning process for the gardens".
Colac resident Lindsay Hulm, an advocate for keeping vehicle access in the gardens, said a car ban would be a "terrible" outcome for the elderly, families and tourists.
"I think it makes the gardens unique actually. It'd be a shame for people not to be able to drive through," Mr Hulm said.
"Providing you can't park on the gardens themselves, I can't see any disadvantage," he said.
"The fact that it's one-way traffic and it's limited to five kilometres an hour or under, I don't see any danger to pedestrians."
The recommendation is among more than a hundred in the $70,000 strategy, a joint project with the Department of Planning and Community Development, Department of Sustainability and Environment and Barwon Water which aims to ensure the community has enough open spaces, recreation and sports facilities.
The report said Colac had a "reasonable" distribution of sports reserves but a limited range of facilities and no rectangular grounds to suit soccer or rugby.
It recommends upgrading Western Oval, Colac Cricket Ground, Eastern Reserve and South Colac Oval to cater for informal activities, and exploring the possibility of rectangular fields.
The report also aims to encourage people to walk and cycle by improving links around Colac.
Victoria's Planning Minister Matthew Guy needed to authorise the plan before the council can prepare an amendment to the Colac Otway planning scheme.
Mayor Brian Crook said the community provided "positive" feedback to the strategy through written submissions, an online survey, workshops and information sessions.
"It was pleasing that a variety of community and club members put forward their ideas as part of the consultation process," Cr Crook said.
"The council received submissions from Beeac in the north, right through to the coast at Apollo Bay, with plenty of suggestions for improvements to existing public spaces, as well as suggesting additional sites for inclusion in the open space database," he said.

DRACUT (CBS) – Three workers were taken to the hospital on Tuesday after possibly being exposed to a hazardous chemical.
The workers at Conway Freight found the chemicals in a box in a truck parked outside in the shipping and receiving area.
Police say the three workers all reported an odor emitting from a liquid-based flammable material.
The workers, who showed no signs of illness, were decontaminated at the hospital.
WBZ NewsRadio 1030's Bernice Corpuz reports
Commercial Drive was shut down for a few hours while Hazmat crews responded.
Crews had contained the chemical.
The chemical had not yet been identified, but police believe it may be some kind of household cleaner.

Residency of Piatt County Clerk at Issue in Lawsuit
An attorney in Piatt County has filed a lawsuit to remove the current county clerk one month before Election Day.
Dan Clifton is an assistant deputy state's attorney in Champaign County - he contends that Republican Piatt County Clerk Pat Rhoades doesn't qualify to serve because her family moved to a house just over the Piatt County line last year. Clifton says a Piatt County judge is scheduled to hear his complaint Wednesday morning.
"What I'm hoping the court will be able to do is look at the facts of the situation, which are fairly simple, and look at the law, and declare whether or not she is still an inhabitant or whether she ceased to be an inhabitant.," Clifton said. "If she ceased to be an inhabitant, then I'm asking the court to declare the office vacant." If that happens, Rhoades' chief deputy would step in until the county board appoints a replacement to fill out the term.
Rhodes has not returned a phone call seeking comment. She has told the county board that she has been living in Champaign County temporarily while she and her family build a house in Piatt County. But in his suit Clifton claims that Rhoades has a registered as a voter - and voted - in Champaign County, and the property where the house was to be built is now for sale.

Recruiting has been quiet for one of the most versatile and athletic players in Louisiana. However, things got loud pretty quickly for Drew Dileo out of Greenwell Springs (La.) Parkview Baptist when he picked up his first offer this week out of the Big Ten.
"I got a letter from Coach Jackson from Michigan a week ago or so and that was really the first letter I got," Dileo said. "It was a hand-written letter and it was pretty good and it gave me his phone number and everything. I had sent them my highlight film and they said they liked my film and then I got a letter yesterday that formerly offered me a scholarship. Then I called and talked to Coach Rodriguez. I was excited."
As a first offer, Michigan was a big one and certainly not one that Dileo expected.
Article Continues Below
"I was shocked in a way," he said. "I guess I was more or less shocked that Michigan is all the way in the North of the United States and I'm all the way down in Louisiana. I was really excited and just happy."
The Michigan offer wasn't just a random BCS offer in Dileo's eyes either. Dileo actually grew up rooting for the Wolverines.
"It's kind of ironic that it's Michigan because growing up here in Baton Rouge, for a lot of kids, LSU is their favorite school and every now and then they have a side school and mine was Michigan."
Dileo played wingback, slot, running back and cornerback for his high school as a junior while also returning kicks. His versatility looks to be a perfect fit for Rich Rodriguez's offense.
"They like me more of like a slot receiver," he said. "They said that they need guys like me that fit their offense that they can get the ball to in space and make plays."
Along with Michigan, Dileo has been receiving interest from UConn, Texas A&M, Louisiana Tech and others.

Navigators Group Inc. (NASDAQ:NAVG) filed Quarterly Report for the period ended 2009-03-31.
The Navigators Group Inc. is a holding company with twelve active wholly owned subsidiaries. They primarily write marine onshore energy engineering and construction insurance and a contractors' general liability program. As underwritten by Navigators marine insurance includes hull energy liability and cargo; onshore energy primarily covers property damage with an emphasis on the oil and petrochemical sectors; and engineering and construction primarily covers construction projects including machinery equipment and loss of use due to delays. Navigators Group Inc. has a market cap of $765.1 million; its shares were traded at around $45.38 with a P/E ratio of 10.1 and P/S ratio of 1.1. Navigators Group Inc. had an annual average earning growth of 115.7% over the past 5 years.
Highlight of Business Operations:The Company has significant catastrophe exposures throughout the world with the largest catastrophe exposure coming from offshore energy risks exposed to hurricanes in the Gulf of Mexico. Following the 2008 hurricane season, many offshore energy policies that were in-force during Hurricanes Gustav and Ike now have either reduced limits or have used up the entire windstorm limit of the policy. To take account of this in assessing our overall Gulf of Mexico exposure, we have remodeled the offshore energy exposure with these reduced windstorm limits. Based on this assessment, the Company estimates that our probable maximum pre-tax gross and net loss exposure in a theoretical one in two hundred and fifty year hurricane event in the Gulf of Mexico would approximate $147 million and $26 million, respectively, including the cost of reinsurance reinstatement premiums, which emanates from 2008 underwriting year risks that have yet to expire.
Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2009 was $12.0 million or $0.71 per share compared to $23.3 million or $1.36 per share for the three months ended March 31, 2008. Included in these results were net realized capital losses of $0.48 per share and net realized capital gains of $0.00 per share for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The 2009 first quarters net realized capital losses include impairments of $10.7 million for declines in the market value of securities which were considered to be other-than-temporary, as further discussed under the caption Investments, included herein. The after-tax loss of such impairments was $7.0 million or $0.41 per share. Recording realized capital losses on such securities has no impact on the Companys stockholders equity or book value per share since unrealized gains and losses on the investment portfolio are a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).
The combined ratios, which consist of the sum of the loss and LAE ratio and the expense ratio for each period, for the 2009 first quarter period was 92.8 % compared to 89.2% for the comparable period in 2008. The combined ratio for the 2009 first quarter was reduced by 3.5 loss ratio points for net loss reserve redundancies of $5.8 million relating to prior years. The combined ratio for the 2008 first quarter was reduced by 8.8 loss ratio points for net loss reserve redundancies of $13.7 million relating to prior years. The net paid loss and LAE ratio for the 2009 first quarter was 43.6 % compared to 32.7% for the comparable period in 2008.
Cash flow from operations was $42.9 million for the 2009 three month period compared to $59.7 million for the comparable period in 2008.
Consolidated stockholders equity increased 3.4% to $ 712.5 million or $ 42.07 per share at March 31, 2009 compared to $689.3 million or $40.89 per share at December 31, 2008. The increase was due to net income.
Revenues. Gross written premium was $275.3 million in the 2009 first quarter, compared to $287.1 million in the 2008 comparable period. The decrease in the 2009 first quarter gross written premium compared to 2008 generally reflects a combination of selective business expansion in new and existing lines of business, offset by the effect of premium rate changes on renewal policies on certain lines of business and lost or cancelled business.

Gov. Jerry Brown's plan to furlough state employees has a big expense: It adds tens of millions of deferred dollars to California's state worker pension costs.
As part of closing the state's $16 billion budget deficit, Brown suggested cutting two hours from 214,000 state employees' weekly schedules and moving them to four-day workweeks.
The 5 percent cut in hours would yield about $839 million in payroll savings, $401 million of that from the general fund.
Brown wants to negotiate the cut with labor unions, but he's open to any other ideas that reach the savings.
(The cuts wouldn't apply to the state universities or the Legislature because the governor doesn't have authority over those bodies.)
Brown's plan leaves employee retirement benefits unchanged. This was true when former Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and the Legislature imposed furloughs. It was true when unions agreed to contracts that mandated leave days.
Pensions are the unions' hallowed ground. Unilaterally cutting the benefit for current workers would invite a wave of litigation, since conventional legal wisdom says the guarantees are protected by both state and federal law. Sure, Brown can insist on his furlough and a parallel pension reduction ---- if he wants to guarantee a bargaining breakdown.
So why the millions of dollars in deferred cost?
Let's say for the sake of easy math that state worker Hy Pothetical earns $1,000 per month in pensionable income. Like most employees, Hy contributes 8 percent to his pension, or $80 per month.
Then Brown's four-day, 9.5-hour workweek kicks in. Now Hy earns $950 per month and pays $76 in pension contributions, 8 percent of his new lower wage.
Since the retirement benefit will be calculated as though Hy still earned $1,000, the state ---- i.e., taxpayers ---- picks up the $4 difference.
Brown's Department of Finance spokesman H.D. Palmer acknowledged that the state is on the hook for that cost, but said that multiplying $839 million by 8 percent ---- $67 million ---- overstates the expense. The state saves some money because the pay cut reduces its Social Security obligations, for example.
The state has never calculated increased employer pension costs from the old furloughs, contracts or Brown's plan, Palmer said, but he agreed that it's in the tens of millions of dollars.
The state doesn't pay the money immediately.
CalPERS wouldn't figure the extra cost for the government's employer pension payments for a year.
Then it would be tacked onto the state's unfunded liability, an estimated $85 billion to $240 billion, depending on who is doing the math. CalPERS treats furlough underpayments like a loan and annually charges the state its going interest rate, currently 7.5 percent.
That's furloughs for you. They ding state workers first, then nail taxpayers for years to come.

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- An MRI on Darrelle Revis' left hamstring has reportedly revealed a strain, and the Jets' All-Pro cornerback said in a report in the Newark Star-Ledger that he may miss up to two weeks of play.
Revis pulled up after getting burned by Patriots wideout Randy Moss for a 34- yard touchdown late in the second quarter of Sunday's game. The star cover corner, who was probable for the game due to the ailment, exited the field before halftime and did not return.
The Jets trailed 14-7 at the time of his departure but wound up winning 28-14.
New York plays upcoming division road games against Miami and Buffalo, and head coach Rex Ryan is unsure if Revis will be able to participate.
"I know he's going to want to play, but it will be our doctors that sit down with Darrelle and collectively make a decision. I'm not so sure if we want rule him out right now, but we'll see...We'll put him in as doubtful for now," Ryan said during Monday's press conference.
Revis missed a majority of training camp as he was holding out for a new contract, which he received just before Week 1.

A SHEFFIELD University professor is calling on the Government to turn the ailing British economy around by cutting back on the provision of credit for housing and consumption.
Colin Hay, Professor of Political Analysis and Co-Director of the University's Sheffield Political Economic Research Institute, wants credit to be channelled into long term investment in new technologies, education and infrastructure.
And he is calling for banks to be shamed into reducing the "exorbitant interest rates" they are charging consumers, home-owners and commercial borrowers, which he says are now typically 10 times the base rate.
The calls come in the first of what will be a series of policy papers produced by the Institute. Prof Hay claims in the paper, The British Growth Crisis: a Crisis of and for Growth, published today, that the British economy is "an excessively liberalised Anglo-American form of capitalism."
"This is a form of capitalism and a growth model that was inherently unstable and threatened the entire world economy – its excesses cannot be tolerated again," says Prof Hay.
"In basic terms we are calling for channelling the supply of credit from housing and consumption into longer term growth-generating strategic investment in new technologies, education and infrastructure."
Prof Hay says British policy-makers should reconsider the relationship between investment banking and commercial banking, which he believes allows commercial banking to subsidise investment banking and impairs the capacity to build a new growth model.
"My hope is that I have made a compelling case that we need first to get right what went wrong in order to put it right and to suggest at least some of what getting it right and putting it right might entail."

The company, working with the Scottish Enterprise High Growth Unit, relocated to Scotland, UK in 2008 to continue its research in to novel microwave based medical and commercial devices. This research led to the successful SMART award by the Scottish Government in Q3 2008 to research the feasibility of next generation microwave sources.
In Q1 2009, the Company carried out a successful funding campaign, achieving full investment through a private network of high net-worth individuals. The investment allowed the company to advance the development, manufacture and launch of innovative medical treatments (through Swift) and OEM systems (through emblation microwave) used in industrial, scientific and medical fields.
Emblation moved to new premises in 2008 with further expansion during 2009, allowing the development and management teams to work more closely together.
In Q1 2010 the Company was granted a SMART Research and Development award by the Scottish Government to further develop and assist in the commercialization of their innovative microwave based devices.

The 109th Street Pool in Watts, which was closed by the city after six employees were attacked by as many as 30 men June 22, reopened June 25, amid promises of beefed-up security. Officers with the Los Angeles Police Department and the Department of General Services will step up security at the swimming pool and in the surrounding community, Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa said at an afternoon news conference last Wednesday. Watts residents who already patrol midnight basketball games in the community will also oversee security at the pool.
"The only way to reclaim a neighborhood is with neighbors, working together, saying that we won't tolerate anyone interfering with our young people's right to be able to go to a pool on a hot summer day and learn how to swim," Villaraigosa said.
Trouble at the pool began Sunday June 22 in the sweltering heat, when the six pool workers were overwhelmed by the large group of men. The pool manager, a lifeguard and a locker room attendant were thrown into the water during the rampage, according to the Los Angeles Times, which first reported the attack. Councilwoman Janice Hahn, who represents the Watts community, said her father, the late county Supervisor Kenneth Hahn, was responsible for opening pools in South Los Angeles because he believed children deserve a place to cool off in the summer.
"Nothing is worse, anywhere but particularly in Watts, in a hot summer than having a pool that's closed down because a bunch of thugs decided to come in here on Sunday and ruin this experience for all of our kids," Hahn said.
Community members will patrol the pool area through the end of the summer, Hahn said.

North Hudsonite building libraries in Ghana
North Hudson resident Deb McNally is a teacher who has taken her effort well beyond the classroom and is now building libraries in Ghana. She is the inspiration for, founder of, and now executive director of Hand in Hand for Literacy.
The organization, with an office in St. Paul, has already built one library in Ghana and is currently fundraising for a second facility in the country.
"It all started about five years ago when I signed up as a volunteer (through an organization called Global Volunteers)," McNally said. "I intended to go to Ghana for three weeks. Well, the trip changed my life."
When she arrived in the town of Senchi-Ferry, Ghana, McNally found herself in front of more than 60 kids in a concrete room.
"I was used to rooms with posters, maps on the wall and books on the shelf," McNally said. "What I found was a room with cracked concrete walls, kids with a paper and pencil and not a book to be found."
She soon discovered that there was not a book in the entire village. What she did find, however, were kids who were eager to learn.
"What struck me most is that these kids were eager to learn English," she said. "They walked one or two miles to school and were the most eager learners I had ever worked with. They wanted to learn every word. What I found out was that they saw learning as an opportunity for them to rise out of poverty."
She asked the kids what they wanted to be when they grew up.
"Some said they wanted to be doctors and find a cure for aids; some wanted to be pilots to bring medical supplies to the villages; some wanted to be scientists and teachers," McNally said. "They all had huge dreams and goals, but had no idea how to get there. They had no resources."
When McNally was ready to leave the country after her first visit, a young boy named Emmanuel and his father walked a long distance to say "good-bye."
"Emmanuel gave me a hug and said 'if there is any way you could send me a book on medicine I would be forever grateful.'" McNally said.
She realized it would be easy to send Emmanuel one book, but then thought about the dreams of all the other kids in the community. She then decided to raise the money necessary for a library. It took three years to build, but the Senchi-Ferry Community Library opened in January 2011 and now houses over 8,000 books and serves over 1,000 kids.
With the project completed, however, McNally decided she was not ready to be done. She began a project to build a second library in an area known as Challenging Heights located in the Cape Coast region of Ghana, Africa. Challenging Heights provides education for children who have been rescued from slavery or are at risk for child trafficking. The school has no books or library.
The population of the school (approximately 700 students between the ages of 4 and 17) is made up of 25 percent of children rescued from slavery, over 35 percent of children withdrawn from child labor and almost 40 percent of children from the community who are considered at risk.
She is now attempting to raise funds for a library through her Hand In Hand For Literacy, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.
Aside from outright donations, however, she also wants to encourage local students follow her passion for literacy.
"I have been working closely with the Hudson schools in getting students to commit to reading outside of the school," McNally said. "It's important to keep literacy alive here as well. In working with the teachers, we've been able to get kids to read a certain number of minutes. I'm looking for individuals and businesses to help sponsor those kids. They raise money for each minute they read and help build our library in Ghana."
She expects to be able to build her second library in Challenging Heights for about $87,000; the first in Senchi-Ferry cost about $67,000.
One of her favorite stories came during the opening of the library in Senchi-Ferry nearly two years ago.
I was working in the library with the new librarian and I heard noise in the hall," McNally said. "It got closer and closer and I asked the librarian about the noise.
"He went and looked and came back saying 'it's just Isaac, Joseph's son.'"
It turns out that Isaac was a handicapped 17-year-old boy. He got himself to the library door in his make-shift wheelchair, and then crawled down the hallway to see what was going on.
"I pulled a book off the shelf and sat with him and read the book as he looked at the pictures," McNally said. "He grinned and literally shook with delight.
"It then struck me that Isaac probably didn't understand a word I read, but the pictures in the book gave him a window into a world that he'll never see. It motivates me."
For information about the Hand in Hand for Literacy program, or to make a donation, go to www.handinhandforliteracy.org. Nearly 100 percent of donations go to the current project.

New director, new cast, Jessica Biel as a General (!!!), but at least the van from Joe Carnahan's upcoming big-budget version of the popular '80s adventure show looks the same. Check out an image of the van in action in a desert below. More pics over at SplashNews. And yes, I don't know what a celebrity paparazzi site is doing snapping pictures of a van sitting in the middle of the desert, but then again I never know what goes on in the minds of these strange, strange creatures call paparazzi.
In actual movie news, EW reports that Patrick Wilson ("Watchmen") has joined the cast as a CIA operative. Since the movie has our heroes being chased by the government for a crime they didn't commit, and considering Hollywood's current grudge against the CIA (they're eeeeeeeeeeeeevil, doncha know), my guess is that Nite Owl II's spook won't be so nice, and that the CIA will once again look comparable to Osama Bin Laden.

My Nonprofit Reviews
Susan Carlson
Review for Goodwill Industries of West Michigan, Inc., Muskegon, MI, USA
Several times per year I clean out closets, drawers, rooms and decorating items ready for a change and as soon as I empty my trunk I go right into the store looking for other buried treasure. I love Goodwill because it is not just a store it is a means to an end. It helps others with training and job placement. How many of us go to Unemployment office to get put on a list and never hear from them again. Or have put in job applications and never called again. The staff are always friendly and wiling to help you unload your car with a hand out and a thanks for donating to Goodwill. Also you can get a tax deduction. Cant get much better than that. It is more than a store go check it out. Never know what can be on the next rack.

Age of Decadence - September Update
With September almost over Iron Tower Studio's has posted a new development update for Age of Decadence. They even included a few new screenshots.
News from the front:
- The testing goes well and so far we're on schedule for the mid-October release. Naturally, there's still work to be done and issues to resolve, but all the major problems have been fixed. Still, we want to be sure, so if you want to lend to hand and test the upcoming release, please report to the nearest recruiting station.
- At the moment, we're working on 'Teron to Maadoran' transition issues at the moment, fixing issues created by the switch to 1-10 system, and finishing up the pass and the tower.
- Oscar's also tweaking the fight with the Ordu at the pass, adding various states and variables. Maybe you weakened the Ordu, maybe you just pissed them off and they came in great numbers, huffing and puffing. Maybe you managed to boost the defenses, skills, and equipment of the defenders. And finally, if you go for the Ordu's leaders and manage to kill them first, their men will be demoralized and suffer combat penalties. Of course, fighting the leaders when they are surrounded by their men is a risky business – they pack quite a punch and are surrounded by their men. Shaping up like a fun fight.
- Nick's almost done with the system changes, Ivan's putting on finishing touches on the demon's animations, which underwent several rounds of revisions, Mazin continues making cool concepts and icons.
- I added two gangs to the Slums, another character to the pass, "expanded" a couple of characters, wrote faction and personal endings, and now I'm working on death descriptions to commemorate your failures.

Dec. 6 (UPI) -- The electric guitar that made news almost 50 years ago when Bob Dylan used it at the 1965 Newport Folk Festival is back in the spotlight again after it was sold for a record $965,000 at Christie's on Friday.
When Dylan played the Fender Stratocaster at the previously all-acoustic folk festival, many viewed the move as the mercurial musician turning his nose up at the established music scene.
Christie's announced that the guitar, which was expected to sell for $300,000 to $500,000, was sold to an unnamed, absentee buyer.
"An auction estimate is always just that: It's an estimate. It's not cut in stone," said Tom Lecky of Christie's. "Obviously the marketplace realized its importance and competed for it. It's a great result for a legendary guitar."
The infamous instrument had been in the possession of a New Jersey family who got the piece of music history after Dylan accidentally left it on a private plane. After some legal wrangling about ownership of the guitar with Dylan himself, the family opted to put it on the block. It's unclear whether he will get a cut of the profits from the sale.
In addition to the guitar, a set of handwritten lyrics for a Dylan song called "I Wanna Be Your Lover" that were found in its case sold for $20,000.
In 2004, Eric Clapton's Strat "Blackie" set the previous record for a guitar sold at auction when it was unloaded for $959,000.
Had Dylan never busted out the famous guitar at Newport, it's possible that he never would have "opened up" President Obama's world:

The Last Man
or What Can You See?
"In them He has set a tabernacle for the sun, which is like a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and rejoices like a strong man to run its race." Psalm 19:4-5
The Bible Matrix is found throughout Scripture and Creation at every level. It is the foundation for the best novels and movies because they resonate with us at every level. Like the Bible, the best literature, art, music and movies show us something new every time we review them.
A prime example is a movie I discovered last week, Sunshine, directed by Danny Boyle. It follows the basic pattern, but after some thought, there are many more elements within it that illustrate the history of Adam than immediately meet the eye.
"Our sun is dying. Mankind faces extinction. Seven years ago the Icarus project sent a mission to restart the sun but that mission was lost before it reached the star. Sixteen months ago, I, Robert Capa, and a crew of seven left earth frozen in a solar winter. Our payload: a stellar bomb with a mass equivalent to Manhattan Island. Our purpose: to create a star within a star. Eight astronauts strapped to the back of a bomb. My bomb. Welcome to the Icarus Two."
If you don't want the movie spoiled for you, watch it before reading this post. You won't really get the post anyhow if you haven't seen it.
The mission is a classic "there and back again."
THERE: The first mission failed, but the reason is a mystery to those left behind. The Captain of the Icarus I, as first Adam, believes a lie and fails. The second Adam defeats him, comes face to face with the consuming fire — where time stops — and mediates the beginning of a new history through his bloody sacrifice.
BACK AGAIN: The "back again" is the Spirit, the sunlight, the new earth resulting from the new heavens. As mediator, Capa's wisdom becomes "the light of all men."
The first Captain sneaks around in the shadows (as Remy Wilkins observed), a serpent crouching in a stolen garden. But he also "eats dust," dust that is actually dead people, the first covenant. With delusions of grandeur, like Herod, he tries to foil the new covenant. He is the first Captain but he also wants to be "the last man." He waits seven years for redemption, for Sabbath, but he dies with the old, frozen world.
The design of the hardware is also significant. There is a deliberate contrast between the golden sun, its mediators (the space suits) and the silver servants (wrapped in insulating foil) as the silver lights, the new "stars" hidden in-the-side of the Covenant bomb. (Also notice that the "way" is narrow. One is taken, and the other is lost, like the goats at Atonement, flanking the High Priest.)
As in the Tabernacle, there is the stark contrast between round and square. Round is nature, and square is culture. The ship's prime shield is a giant cornea, but one that is deliberately blind. The consuming fire can only be glimpsed. But the "payload" hidden behind it is the good work of the hands of wise men. The bomb is a giant cube, with the mass of Manhatten Island. Its matter is so dense that the object has its own gravity. It is lifted up as a serpent in the wilderness.
The Old Temple, a beautiful construct of men, is destroyed, cut into head and body, to bring a new head-and-body unity between heaven and earth by the Spirit.
As usual, Hollywood presents the "religious guy" as the mad villain, and the scientist as the rational saviour, but isn't this exactly the conflict between Christ and Herod? The wisdom of the physicist (the servant) is more in tune with the way of things than the delusions of the narcissistic king, who sacrifices innocents to prolong his life. He has no concern for the Bride, the Covenant Body.
It's a beautiful movie. Watch out for the brief glimpse of the Icarus design on the secondary shield as the ship separates and is destroyed towards the end.
There is also a scientific commentary on the DVD, which contains some really interesting facts.
The best writers can't help but tell God's story. There is nothing new under the sun.
"Kaneda! What can you see? Kaneda! What can you see?"

One of the country's top energy officials has told Sky News that an incident last year, which went almost unnoticed, was an alarming demonstration of what terrorists could be planning.
Snipers fired dozens of rounds into an electricity substation in San Jose in California in April, knocking out a number of giant transformers that supply Silicon Valley.
Experts say what was initially recorded by police as vandalism was in fact a meticulously planned and highly professional operation. The attackers even cut underground communication lines before they opened fire.
The fear is that a larger, co-ordinated attack could knock out the grid for weeks or months. Some believe the April attack might have been a dress rehearsal.
Jon Wellinghoff, head of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission at the time of the attack, described it as the biggest ever domestic terrorist attack on the energy grid.
He told Sky News: "There are individuals out there capable of doing this sort of damage.
"Without you knowing that there are people intent on doing this damage, you don't take it seriously.
"Now we know that, we know how well-trained they were, how well they executed this, people are taking this seriously."
He offers a stark warning of the consequences: "The entire United States could go black. If you knocked out enough of these substations in a co-ordinated attack, you could turn the entire country into 2003 blackout."
That blackout, caused initially by a computer problem, left more than 40 million people without power on the east coast.
The FBI says it does not believe the attack was terrorism. No one has been arrested. US Navy Seals have said it is a carbon copy of how they would carry out such an operation.
The attack on San Jose has left local people nervous.
Ross Paquette told Sky News: "It concerns me that a couple of guys can pull up in a car and take out a substation like that overnight. What concerns me more is that we had no idea it happened."
Energy officials say they prevented a blackout this time by re-routing power through other transformers. Immediately after the April attack, they began an overhaul of security at the Metcalf substation and other locations.
Brain Swanson, a spokesman for substation owner Pacific Gas and Electric, said: "This incident was a game-changer for the industry. It is not just us working alone, the whole industry is working at all levels on how we can improve grid security across the country."

From today's GuruFocus Real Time Picks reports, mutual fund company Columbia Wanger has increased its Exa Corp. (NASDAQ:EXA) stake by 816.78 percent, turning the miniscule position into 10.8 ownership of the company's outstanding shares.
Massachusetts-based Exa is simulation-driven software products and services provider, largely serving the transportation market through its array of products that help companies test such things as fluid flow and heat transfer. Through its simulation software, Exa enables companies to improve the efficiencies of their design and engineering processes as well as improve costs, without having to spend money on expensive physical prototypes and tests.
Having only been declared a public company since June 2012, Exa's stock price has slightly gone down since its IPO, trading today at $9.47 from $11 seven months ago.
Columbia purchased Exa stock in the third quarter of last year, starting off with 157,517 shares. This placed the fund at 1.19 percent owner, and represented 0.0079 percent of its portfolio, barely making any impact at all to the 323-stock portfolio. Today, Columbia holds a little over 1.4 million shares, and is the only investor on GuruFocus who has dabbled in the company's shares (EXA: Guru Trades).
Exa's revenue grew by 9 percent comparable to year-over-year data, according to its third quarter financial results. Exa President and CEO Stephen Remondi noted that its revenue growth represented 13 percent on a constant currency basis, which is slightly below what the company anticipated, and is due to what he believes are near-term budget constraints for Exa's customers, as well as the delay of new projects and license activity.
"We believe customers became incrementally more cautious with expenses going into calendar year-end, due to increased macroeconomic uncertainty, particularly in the manufacturing markets we serve," Remondi said. "With new budgets opening up in the New Year and short-term deliverables which still must be met…we are optimistic that these delays will be short-lived. Furthermore, we are confident that the long-term drivers of our growth remain firmly intact and that Exa is well positioned to lead our customers' efforts in simulation-based design in order to meet their increasingly stringent requirements for fuel efficiency, noise, and thermal management."
Exa's new presence in public market trading is accompanied by a 1-star ranking in Business Predictability on GuruFocus. Its stock is up 2 percent this afternoon.
As the eighth largest manager of long-term mutual fund assets, many of Columbia Wanger's managed funds have delivered double-digit returns in 2012. They include: the Columbia Acorn Emerging Markets Fund A, which returned 30.86 percent; the Columbia Large Cap Growth Fund A, which returned 20.15 percent; the Columbia Contrarian Core Fund A, which returned 18.33 percent; and the Columbia Mid Cap Value Opportunity Fund, which returned 18.2 percent.

Some people dislike jays, but I have only respect for these blue-suited, clever, mischievous members of the corvid family. Over the years I've had close acquaintance with jays -- both the blue jay and the Florida scrub jay.
For some unfathomable reason, scrub jays are friendly towards humans. They thrive in very specific habitat, coastal and sand hill scrub, neither of which humans find attractive and therefore justify destroying. Habitat destruction is what has earned the Florida scrub jay a threatened species designation. Scrub jays look nothing like blue jays -- they lack a crest, the blues are paler and the breast is gray. Sitting on a telephone wire, scrub jays have a silhouette similar to mocking birds but tend to hold their long tails down rather than flicking them horizontally.
Nine years ago, nearly every weekend for two years, I visited a family of scrub jays on A1A below Marineland. They tend to stay in family groups consisting of a mature breeding pair and two to three juveniles from previous nesting seasons. The juveniles delay breeding to assist the parents in raising the current brood.
The A1A family of five quickly learned my greeting, "Hi guys!" and came whenever they heard my voice. I never touched or fed them but was allowed to accompany them as they searched for food in the short roadside grasses. Grasshoppers were high on their list, but when insects weren't available, they went for seeds and berries. One family member usually acted as lookout and if a threat appeared, uttered a loud "breeep" causing the whole family to disappear into thick scrub. During normal foraging, the family stayed in touch by keeping up a steady stream of chortles and soft sounds, including a startling series of unbirdlike clicks whenever they spotted something exciting.
I became busy with other projects and after six months' absence returned to visit the jay family. Never expecting a friendly reception, I stood at the edge of their territory and gave a cheerful, "Hi guys!" After a short pause a mature scrub jay flew over my shoulder and landed on the outer branches of a scrub oak.
As I approached I scooped a small grasshopper from the grass and broke my no-feeding rule by offering it. After only a brief hesitation, the jay leaned toward my hand and removed the grasshopper.

I love cooking outdoors and just plugging it in and kind of walking away wasnt doing it for me. I talked the wife into letting drop some cash and away we went, she helped me put it all together and its seasoning now. Anway I cooked up some ribs on the MES last night, and they were a tad spicy but today they are gone. Last nights MES cook

" Address: Main Road / Middle Mayfield / Ashbourne DE6 2JT / Derbyshire "
Every year towards the end of our holiday, Mrs SWSt treat ourselves to a table at a local good food restaurant or pub. When holidaying in Derbyshire, this year we ended up at the Rose & Crown inn in Mayfield for this special "end of holiday" meal. There were two reasons for selecting this: first of all, it has a very good reputation locally for excellent food served in a pleasant environment. Secondly, it was at the bottom of the road where we were staying, meaning that we could both have a drink with our meal and then stagger home in less than 2 minutes afterwards!
Getting There
The Rose & Crown is pretty easy to find. It sits just off the A52 - one of the main routes connecting Staffordshire and Derbyshire. Turn right at the signs to Mayfield village (shortly before you reach Ashbourne) and follow the road round for about a mile and a half and you will find it at the top of a hill, sitting on a bend in the road. It's rather hard to miss as it's the only building on that side of the road for quite some time and has nice big signs outside it with the pub name. A reasonable sized car park is at the rear of the pub, with the entrance to it just past the pub itself.
Inside the Pub
From the outside, the pub doesn't look any different from all the other country pubs in the Derbyshire area and doesn't have anything particularly to recommend it. To be honest, if it hadn't been for the fact that so many people spoke so highly of it, we might not have given it a second glance.
This slightly anonymous theme continues inside. As you enter, the bar takes up most of the space on your right hand side whilst the rest of the pub is laid out with tables of varying sizes in one single, largish room. It's clear from the way it's laid out that the pub is really aimed at the dining crowd, rather than as a drinking pub, although we went down there for a drink on one of the quieter nights and bagged a table easily enough. The walls of the pub meanwhile are nicely decorated with some interesting old photographs of the village of Mayfield, together with a helpful explanation of what they show.
Overall, the interior provides a clean, bright and pleasant environment in which to eat. Although there are quite a lot of tables, the area set aside for dining is reasonably large so you don't feel as though you are sitting right on top of the party next to you. Certainly, when we visited there were about five or six parties in, all seated in roughly the same area, but we felt we had plenty of privacy. Although we were aware of the chatter from surrounding tables, it was not intrusive and actually added to the pleasant environment, rather than detracting from it.
A word of caution: because the Rose & Crown has established itself locally as an excellent place to eat, it can get very busy. This is particularly true of Friday and Saturday evenings and you are well advised to book in advance on these nights in particular to make sure you get a table. Having said that, we went in on Thursday night and whilst we did book, there were plenty of tables for anyone calling in on spec.
Food & Drink
Of course, the most important part of any dining experience is the food and drink and here the Rose & Crown does not disappoint. The menu is relatively small, but full of choice. Indeed, so appetising did all the dishes sound that we had serious problems choosing every single one of the courses!
Since we were treating ourselves, we went the full hog and had a three course meal. For starters we both had the deep fried brie, which came with a delicious red onion marmalade relish. This was followed by a locally sourced pork steak and mash, whilst Mrs SWSt opted for the lamb. Both were absolutely delicious and the pork steak in particular was very succulent, about an inch thick and very, very tasty. Indeed, all the constituent ingredients on the plate were delicious and incredibly well cooked.
The dessert menu was similarly full of choice and once again, both Mrs SWSt and I struggled to make a selection because everything sounded so nice! In the end, I plumped for a delicious sticky toffee pudding which came in a generous portion, covered in a delicious sauce which was not too sweet (often a problem with this type of pudding). Mrs SWSt went for the bitter chocolate tart which also proved a very pleasant way to finish the meal.
There's a couple of things to bear in mind with the menu, it's clear that the owners don't really hold with the idea of vegetarianism, so choices for this are limited to just a couple of dishes. Not a problem for us, but something to bear in mind if you have one in your party. Secondly (as is common in this type of pub), the main meals do not come with any additional vegetables, although these can be ordered as a side dish for an additional charge. I'd recommend doing this, partly to make sure you have enough to eat, but also because (like everything else) they were cooked to perfection - crunchy to eat and full of flavour.
The nice thing about the meal was that we felt the size of each of the portions was exactly right. They were not massive, but neither were they haute cuisine sized. We left feeling pleasantly full, but not stuffed.
One of the real beauties of country pubs is that you can often find a range of beers not often available elsewhere, but the choice at the Rose & Crown was more limited than I expected with a choice of just a couple (one of which is fairly common) On the plus side, the Mansfield Dark is delicious and definitely to be recommended! The bar also offered an impressive range of choice when it came to whiskies, too although I didn't sample any of these.
Service throughout was efficient without necessarily being effusive. Staff were friendly enough and cleared away dishes quickly and brought out the food when it was still piping hot, although we didn't quite get the same hearty welcome we have experienced in other country pubs.
As you will see if you have a look at the sample menu on the Rose & Crown website, the pub is more expensive than other places to eat in the area, but the quality shows through and you can see what you are getting for your money. Certainly, we didn't feel the prices were overinflated; although with main courses ranging from £9-15, it's possibly more the sort of place you would go to for a special occasion rather than a spur of the moment thing.
Opening Hours
The Rose & Crown is open from 12-2pm and 7.30-11pm every day except Sunday night and Monday and food is served throughout those hours.
We were delighted with our meal at the Rose & Crown. Every course we had was delicious and the menu was nicely varied and full of choice without being over the top. It provided a very pleasant and relaxed environment in which to eat and drink and if we are ever in the area again, we would go back there like a shot!

I know this comes out as really bizzare, but a friend of mine had to put her buffalo down, and now she would like to preserve the buffalo penis to make a walking cane out of it. I know that they are really long and can be stretched even further. Does anyone know of a website that will tell you how to go about doing this? Or does anyone know the procedures to accomplish this? I would appreciate any help. Thanks.

She wants it for a walking Stick? I noticed you are so enthused about it you posted twice
Tie a brick to the other end and let dry. Good luck on the rain and snow.
You beat me to the punch "B". Just like a woman to wish to further the psycological damage to a male figure in her life by continuing to torture his penis after he is dead. LOL!

As the awful events of September 11 unfolded, the magnitude of the disaster became apparent and the death toll rose, we found the haunting words of an old song going through our head, as old songs will do. It was written on the eve of World War II by the interventionist balladeer Woody Guthrie, and commemorated the loss of the U.S. destroyer Reuben James (DD 245). On escort duty in the Atlantic in October, 1941, she was torpedoed and sunk by a U-boat, although we were not at war. All the officers and most of the men perished. Guthrie spoke for those ashore who knew them, and who could not readily learn their fates:
What were their names, Tell me, what were their names? Did you have a friend on the good Reuben James?
Our industry lost people in the World Trade Center, struck down at their posts while engaged in the entirely honorable and nonbelligerent activity of meeting the needs of their customers. They were seeking to make easier and more pleasant the innumerable small exchanges that provide the foundation of civilized life. It is the aim of our enemies to disrupt those exchanges, although they themselves could not live without them, and they thus are parasites on the system they seek to cripple.
It is easy to say that we must not let them succeed. We are confident that they will not; but let us admit that they have made some progress. The movement of goods by road, rail and air has been slowed by necessary security precautions, and the costs of warehousing and transporting merchandise have increased. Employees and patrons serving in the National Guard and Reserve will be called to active duty. Businesses that depend on unimpeded travel face difficult times.
Our industries already have made contributions to relief and support programs on behalf of the victims,their families, and the emergency services personnel engaged in recovery efforts. We are sure these efforts will continue as appropriate. Perhaps the more difficult task will be to find ways to continue to provide a high level of service to the clients who depend upon these industries to sustain their own morale and productivity. This will not become any less difficult when service provider and client alike are attempting to deal with losses, and with the unavailability of amenities we have come to take for granted, like the prompt arrival of parcels delivered by air. And we hope that the small operations that lost a majority of their customers, who also were their friends, will not be forgotten.
Some have charged that the increasing scope and sophistication of modern technology has made us more vulnerable.The terrorists surely believe this. A primitive community consisting of a few merchants and artisans surrounded by an agricultural population seems far more self-sufficient than a modern city. But it is important to remember that such communities regularly starved to death when the local crop failed, and the resources that might have sustained the populace could not be brought quickly enough to its aid. The two World Wars of the past century demonstrated that industrial civilization, though complex and seemingly fragile, is surprisingly resilient.
As the President continues to emphasize, it is essential to keep on performing the work we know how to do well and usefully. In striving to accomplish this, it may be helpful to look ahead and to look back, too. Many people still remember how we did things a quarter of a century ago, when our transportation and communications systems were not nearly as well developed as they are now. Some of those methods might well be revived. At the same time, we have access to new tools that can enable us to make more efficient use of our time and our logistical resources. There may be no better time than now to start using those tools.
And, whatever happens, we must continue to maintain that complex series of exchanges that sustains a civilized society. We must continue communicating, trading ideas, comparing notes, obtaining the information needed to try new things, and establishing and maintaining relationships based on mutual confidence and trust.
We hope these things will be kept in mind as the vending and coffee service industry assembles for the National Automatic Merchandising Association Expo. It's time to consider how to move ahead.

Ceremonial centers along the Pacific coast of Guatemala, including Abaj Takalik, Izapa, and Kaminaljuyú, grow in size and stature. Pyramids and monumental stone sculpture at different sites provide evidence for connections with the ancestral Olmec style. In the tropical lowlands of the Petén, the villages of Nak'be and El Mirador emerge as major centers. Hieroglyphic writing appears by the dawn of the first millennium, and the Maya establish the architectural, sculptural, and iconographic systems that dominate their artistic production.
In the Petén lowlands, a member of Tikal's royal family is buried in a well-provisioned vaulted tomb dug into the sacred north-south axis of the North Acropolis, the location of numerous subsequent kingly burials. A greenstone mask with inlaid eyes and teeth, possibly forming a head for the burial wrappings, is among the tomb's contents.
Stela 1, bearing an eroded Long Count date of 188.8.131.52.12 (March 4, 37 A.D.), depicts a profile figure with an elaborate headdress at the highland site of El Baúl.
Ceramic vessels, many used as mortuary offerings, are very well made and enjoy a long period of formal experimentation and surface elaboration.
The legendary founder of Tikal's most powerful dynasty, Yax Ch'aktel Xok (First Scaffold Shark), dies. Thirty-one rulers succeed him.
The Long Count Calendar and hieroglyphic writing are in use in the lowlands, where the exploits of the ruling classes begin to be recorded permanently on stone.
The eruption of the Ilopango volcano in the southwestern highlands disrupts the major centers, displaces populations, and upsets trade networks. The region begins a slow decline; Kaminaljuyú gradually loses status and authority. Large stone sculpture is no longer made.
Stela 29 at Tikal bears a date of 18.104.22.168.15 (July 8, 292 A.D.)—the first Long Count date in the lowlands—and an ornately accoutered profile figure that may represent the sixth or seventh dynastic ruler Foliated Jaguar.
Peoples in the Copán valley in the southeast Maya area (now in Honduras) build plastered masonry structures in a regional Maya style and trade with the southern highlands.
The ninth recorded ruler of Tikal, Chak Toh Ich'ak I (Great Jaguar Claw, r. 360–78), dies on the day a foreign warrior named K'ak Sih (Fire-Born)—thought to be from Teotihuacan—arrives. The subsequent Tikal ruler, Yax Ain I (First Crocodile), has strong ties to Teotihuacan and there is much Teotihuacan presence at Tikal.
At Kaminaljuyú, Teotihuacan presence is noted in the talud-tablero architectural profile and in cylindrical tripod vessels. The tripods are among the sumptuary goods in major tombs that also include materials such as jade earflares, pendants, and strings of beads. Cylindrical tripod vessels and other Teotihuacan ceramic forms are produced in the Tiquisate region of coastal Guatemala.
The first dynastic ruler of Palenque in the hills of southern Mexico, K'uk' Balam I (Quetzal Jaguar, r. 431–35), accedes to power on 184.108.40.206.4 (March 11, 431 A.D.). The dynasty retains control until sometime after 799 A.D.
An important period of 400 years of approximately 360 Long Count days, known asbaktun, ends at 126.96.36.199.0 (December 11, 435 A.D.). At Copán, the dynasty of Yax K'uk Mo' (Great-Sun First Quetzal Macaw, r. 426–ca. 437) begins, an event marked by the erection of major buildings in the city's Principal Group. Fifteen recorded rulers succeed Yax K'uk Mo'.
Tikal ruler Siyaj Chan K'awiil II (Stormy Sky, r. 411–56) erects a monument, Stela 31, which shows him in abundant ritual paraphernalia. A finely carved hieroglyphic text with the early history of Tikal's royal lineage is on the back.
Powerful and belligerent, the cities of Tikal, Caracol, and Calakmul dominate the Petén. Naranjo, a smaller neighbor, begins to produce fine ceramic vessels.
An extensive network of raised causeways emanates from Caracol. The causeways will be used for many hundreds of years.

If It Bleeds We Can Kill It
- Artist: In Arcadia
- Genre: Rock
- Release Date: 8/23/2005
From the ashes of the notorious Florida hardcore bands Madison and Carlisle (which also featured members of As Friends Rust and Reversal of Man), guitarist/vocalist Joe Enos moved north to the wastelands of Detroit. He released a limited 4-song All Green Lights CDep on Handstand before teaming up with the members of what would be In Arcadia. If It Bleeds, We Can Kill It is In Arcadia's first full-length as a full band. It's a melodious assault of hardcore in the vein of Anasarca or Falling Forward with the catchy melodies of early Piebald or Sunny Day Real Estate. Joe's soaring guitars are both powerful and pretty, while his vocals range from uplifting harmonies to harsh wounded-animal screams. Blake Thomas provides the rhythm section, effortless delivering drum beats with guts and groove, while Corey Gass's pulsating basslines catch you right in the throat. In Arcadia are driving, melodic, and most of all moving. This album features nine songs and clocks in at just under 33 minutes.

Figures an alliance players guide but no horde player's guide.
Pfft, they just made the Alliance one first. The Horde one is coming out soon: Horde Player's Guide Saimdusan
Anyone know what the races in the APG are?Edit
See title Saimdusan 04:32, 16 March 2007 (EDT)
Level 90 rogue Edit
Where in wow can a Alliance Rogue, level 90 get the best weapons, and how does Level 90 get to 91 with no XP anymore?
- This is not the right place to ask this question. You should try the World of Warcraft forum.
- Please also include info about what expansions you own. The base World of Warcraft package only allows you to level to 90. So you'll need Warlords of Draenor to get past level 90 (at least probably until Legion is released). -- Fandyllic (talk · contr) 7 Dec 2015 1:44 PM Pacific

The Obama administration is furious over a soon to be published Rolling Stone profile of Army Gen. Stanley A. McChrystal, the top U.S. commander in Afghanistan, titled "The Runaway General."
According to the Daily News, the profile says McChrystal took control of the war, "by never taking his eye off the real enemy: The wimps in the White House."
Another source is quoted as calling National Security Adviser Gen. (Ret.) Jim Jones a "clown." McChrystal has already issued an apology, and is now scheduled to appear in Washington D.C. to defend himself on Wednesday.
The communications consultant who set up the Rolling Stone interview, Duncan Boothby, has already resigned.
Giving Rolling Stone access doesn't always lead to trouble, we should note. When PRNewser interviewed Siemens Corporation VP, communications and marketing Jim Whaley this past fall, he told us that as director of communications for the United States Military Academy at West Point, he gave a Rolling Stone reporter complete access to the facility, which turned into a popular story and bestselling book, Absolutely American: Four Years at West Point.
Our sibling blog FishbowlNY has a list of people who may not have been "pissed off" the Rolling Stone profile
McChrystal's apology statement after the jump.
"I extend my sincerest apology for this profile. It was a mistake reflecting poor judgment and should never have happened. Throughout my career, I have lived by the principles of personal honor and professional integrity. What is reflected in this article falls far short of that standard. I have enormous respect and admiration for President Obama and his national security team, and for the civilian leaders and troops fighting this war and I remain committed to ensuring its successful outcome."
