Microchip Technology Inc. (NASDAQ: MCHP) (Chandler, AZ) has announced an expansion of its 8-bit PIC16F178X enhanced Mid-Range core microcontroller (MCU) family with increased Flash memory densities, intelligent analog, and digital peripherals, such as on-chip 12-bit Analog-to-Digital Converters (ADCs), 16-bit PWMs, 8-bit and 5-bit Digital-to-Analog Converters (DACs), operational amplifiers, and high-speed comparators with 50 ns response time, along with EUSART (including LIN), I2C™ and SPI interface peripherals.
The PIC16F178X are the first PIC® MCUs to implement the new Programmable Switch Mode Controller (PSMC), which is an advanced 16-bit Pulse-Width Modulator (PWM) with 64 MHz operation and high-performance capabilities. This combination of features enables higher efficiency and performance, along with cost and space reductions. The new MCUs also feature eXtreme Low Power (XLP) Technology for active and sleep currents of just 32 µA/MHz and 50 nA, respectively, helping to extend battery life and reduce standby current consumption. Low power consumption in combination with advanced analog and digital integration make the PIC16F178X MCUs ideal for LED and other lighting applications, battery management, digital power supplies, motor control, and general-purpose applications.
Available in 28- and 40-pin packages, the MCUs' intelligent analog integration paired with Core Independent Peripherals, inclusive of the PSMC, DACs, Op Amps, high-speed comparators, and 12-bit ADC, enable self-sustaining smart control loops with minimal CPU intervention. This allows for optimal application control while freeing the CPU to provide incremental application value, such as system health monitoring, communications, or human- interface control. Additionally, the MCUs feature a 32 MHz internal oscillator, 2 - 16K Words (3.5 - 28K Bytes) of Flash, 256 - 2K Bytes of RAM, and 256 Bytes of data EEPROM.
Specifications include:
- Enhanced Mid-Range Core with 49 Instruction, 16 Stack Levels.
- Flash Program Memory with self read/write capability.
- 256 Bytes of EEPROM.
- Internal 32 MHz oscillator.
- 4 x PSMC (Programmable Switch Mode Controller)- Dedicated 16bit PWM- Digital and/or analog feedback control of PWM frequency- Dead-band control / auto-shutdown & restart.
- 4 x Fast Comparators with selectable Voltage Reference.
- 3 x Operation Amplifiers (rail-to-rail in and out).
- 14 x 12-bit ADC with Voltage Reference.
- 8-bit DAC.
- 3 x 5-bit DAC.
- Four 8-bit Timer (TMR0/TMR2/TMR4/TMR6).
- One 16-bit Timer (TMR1).
- Extended Watchdog Timer (EWDT).
- Wide Operating Voltage Range:- 'F' Version (2.3 – 5.5 V)- Low Power 'LF' variant (1.8 – 3.6 V).
- 25 mA Source/Sink current I/O.

Victim in Glacier Park Mountain Climbing Death Identified- State Headlines
Over the Labor Day weekend, the victim of a fatal fall from Mount Jackson in Glacier National Park was identified as 56 year-old Dann Pilipow of Indiana.
Over the Labor Day weekend, the victim of a fatal fall from Mount Jackson in Glacier National Park was identified as 56 year-old Dann Pilipow of Indiana.
The search for a missing hiker that fell on Tuesday, August 30, in Glacier National Park has ended in tragedy.
Thursday will mark the 100th anniversary of the National Park Service, and Glacier National Park will be hosting the U.S. Secretary of the Interior, Sally Jewell, along with other dignitaries, for a tour of the park.
Every year we are treated to stories about tourists and wild animals that make you just roll your eyes!
We've seen and heard the ridiculous stories of tourists in Yellowstone National Park who may not have had their heads screwed on too tight upon their visit, but now in Glacier?!
Nearly seven inches of rain and three feet of snow fell in Northwestern Montana over the past few days, causing flooding and the temporary closure of the Going to the Sun Road.
An unidentified man jumped to his death at a water fall in Glacier National Park on Wednesday. His name has not yet been released.
A man is dead after jumping into a shallow pool beneath one of Glacier National Park's most visited waterfalls. According to park spokesman Tim Rains, the incident occurred on Wednesday afternoon, May 5
I guess it's one of those glass half-empty/glass half-full situations, depending on your point of view.
An appeals court has upheld the 30-year prison sentence for a woman who admitted to pushing her husband to his death off a cliff in Glacier National Park
KALISPELL, Mont. (AP) â Nineteen former U.S. Forest Service Leaders are asking federal officials to cancel all oil and gas leases on land east of Glacier National Park that is considered sacred by Native Americans...
There are just a few days left for tourists who wish to take their vehicle through Glacier National Park's Logan Pass.

I'll be really honest, I don't really know what to make out of all this talk about Terry Branstad running for governor. I understand the attraction. Iowa Republicans are desperate for a victory, and like so many times before, many of them would be more than willing to just back someone who they can believe will win.
But didn't we think Jim Ross Lightfoot was going to win? His own campaign did. Remember his campaign slogan: Iowa need Governor Lightfoot? It's never a good idea to claim the title you are campaigning for before you win the contest. Jim Nussle was supposed to win as well, and it sure looked like that was going to happen until Labor Day. So I'm sorry if I'm a little hesitant to buy in to this mind set.
The one thing that scares me about Branstad running again is the Fred Thompson factor. Remember in the summer of 2007 when the thought of Thompson captivated the political talking-heads. Then Fred came on to the political scene and stunk up the place? Yeah, that's what I'm worried about.
Now don't get me wrong. I don't think Branstad could ever be as bad of a candidate as Fred Thompson was, but I do think that he might have a hard time living up to people's expectations. Branstad is a skilled politician, but what if he has some difficult days on the campaign trail?
Another problem for a potential Branstad campaign is Doug Gross. There is no way you could convince me that he would not be involved. We know he's out there looking for a candidate. We know he polled on his former boss, but didn't release the details. And we also know that he is desperate to find a candidate. Yet, how can Doug Gross help Branstad in what looks to be hotly contested primary fight when he has spent almost two entire years campaigning against the base of the party?
I'll have a little more on the Republican gubernatorial race later this week.

Ashley FochtMiddle School Ministry Assistantoffice: ext. email@example.com
How I got here
I began working at CBC in November 2012. Before that I had volunteered as a leader at Straight Up for about four years. Being Middle School Pastor's Assistant is what I had been wanting and praying about for quite a long time. The opportunity arose when the new pastor, Chris Boice, came on board. He suggested that I apply for the position, so I immediately went through the application process, resigned from my previous job, and was hired into the family of CBC.
What I do here
My number one responsibility is to love on the students. I show and teach them the love of Christ by leading and mentoring them. I also do many other things, such as create our monthly newsletter, 'Straight Up Monthly Scoop', that we send out to each household, and oversee our extremely talented, student-led worship team, by helping them prepare songs and lead their peers. I also work with Chris on our bi-weekly services for the students, planning trips, and whatever else God throws my way for this amazing ministry!
Why I do what I do
I began volunteering at Straight Up in my junior year of high school because of the strong pull on my heart from God. When I was in middle school, I started heading down the wrong path, making poor decisions which led to many negative affects in my life. I believe God puts you through things to better yourself, which is what happened my sophomore year of high school on a Red Door trip. I use what I went through to show these wonderful students that even though middle school can be a hard time, with God all things are possible!

Jefferson High School students to present fall play
The Jefferson High School (JHS) theater department's fall play, Almost, Maine, will be performed November 9-11.
This modern and quirky comedy consists of nine vignettes that make up the play, all of which happen at 9 p.m. on a winter's Friday night, as the townsfolk fall in and out of love with each other.
The residents of the town of Almost find themselves in a number of romantic and hilarious predicaments. Knees are bruised. Hearts are broken.
Bruises heal and hearts mend - almost - in what playwright John Cariani calls a "midwinter night's dream."
Performances are Friday and Saturday, November 9-10 at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday, November 11 at 2 p.m. in the Discovery Middle School auditorium in Alexandria.
Tickets are $8 for adults and $5 for children, and will be available at the door.

Steampunk 30th Anniversary (and a giveaway!)
This April, it's official; steampunk celebrates the thirtieth anniversary of its naming day. It was in 1987 that the term steampunk was used by KW Jeter in a note to the Locus magazine, for their April edition.Of course steampunk had been around much longer - emerging in written and visual form, such as:
"Dear Locus,
Enclosed is a copy of my 1979 novel Morlock Night; I'd appreciate your being so good as to route it Faren Miller, as it's a prime piece of evidence in the great debate as to who in "the Powers/Blaylock/Jeter fantasy triumvirate" was writing in the "gonzo-historical manner" first. Though of course, I did find her review in the March Locus to be quite flattering.
Personally, I think Victorian fantasies are going to be the next big thing, as long as we can come up with a fitting collective term for Powers, Blaylock and myself. Something based on the appropriate technology of the era; like 'steam-punks', perhaps."

All Black Charles Piutau is holding on to his Rugby World Cup dream after confirming his decision to head to Northern Ireland at the middle of next year.
The 23-year-old Blues back has signed for Ulster on a two-year deal beginning in July 2016.
Piutau, who has 14 caps, says he remains passionate about playing for the All Blacks and making the squad to defend the World Cup.
"I'll put my best foot forward to wear a black jersey at the end of the year," he said on Thursday.
As to whether his decision to head offshore would affect his chances, he said: "I'm not sure. It's out of my hands."
All Blacks coach Steve Hansen has expressed disappointment at Piutau's decision not to re-sign with New Zealand Rugby.
Piutau said he was faced with a tough choice.
It boiled down to having two contract options in front of him and he took the advice of family, friends, church people and others in his support team.
The clincher was the prospect of being out of his comfort zone and living in a new country, experiencing a new culture and playing a different type of rugby.
The money on offer from Ulster and the ability that gave him to support his family was also a big factor.
He declined to say how close he was to re-signing with the NZR, describing it as a personal matter.
Piutau made his Test debut against France in 2013 and last played for the All Blacks against Wales last November.
Blues chief executive Michael Redman said the franchise hoped Piutau could be part of their Super Rugby campaign next year before he headed to Ulster, but that decision was up to NZR.
Redman also said the Blues would keep the door open for Piutau at the end of his stint overseas.

Houston, TX (PressExposure) December 18, 2009 -- Mark held the crowd spellbound with his personal testimony about his journey to find success and peace in the world of big beauty business. His co-speaker Nikita has been referred to as the âHair Conciergeâ by industry leaders - gracefully told her personal story of overcoming her challenges on the road to success.
Both speakers experiences shared the promise that every day is a new day and when you encounter obstacles, you canât become discouraged. Their mantra was never give up, stay committed and if you change your attitude it will change your latitude. âA change in latitude or perspective helps you rise above todayâs issues and allows you to see things more clearly. Tomorrow really is a new opportunityâ says Morgan.
Mark and Nikita are renowned national and international speakers. They are also well respected platform artists and salon owners. Both speakers also focused on the importance of promoting âsalon onlyâ professional products. Salon only products are those not being mass marketed or sold in major retail outlets.
The pair also taught a few âcutting edgeâ techniques where attendees were introduced to the Australian Point and the 10 minute squeeze cutting techniques.
From students to seasoned salon owners, everyone at the event walked away with a fresh perspective on how to maintain a good attitude, build a positive outlook and improve your future business.
Salon Wholesalers is a direct importer and manufacturer of high-quality salon equipment and furniture, meaning weâve cut out the middle man and passed on the savings to you. We always provide competitive pricing, beating the prices of competitors like Sally Beauty Supply, Armstrong McCall, RDA and a host of others.

The Nike SB Dunk range for the rest of 2013 is looking pretty interesting. No doubt at the top of the heap you have that DJ Clark Kent "112" Dunk created in unison with Primitive.

That didn't take long. Just days after he spilled his guts to Oprah Winfrey about taking performance enhancing drugs, Lance Armstrong's story is getting the big-screen treatment. Deadline is reporting that Paramount Pictures, along with producers and , will base the movie on the not-yet-published Cycle Of Lies: The Fall Of Lance Armstrong by Juliet Macur. As a sports reporter for the New York Times, Macur has written about Armstrong for the last ten years, covering his battle with cancer, his seven Tour de France wins, and now his subsequent doping admission.
The narrative of Armstrong's success has been well documented. Recovering from cancer to win seven Tour titles made the Texan a living legend and a symbol that, through hard work and dedication, anything is possible. He founded the charity Livestrong and raised huge amounts of cash and awareness for cancer sufferers everywhere. He was more than a man; he was an international brand, recognizable the world over. He was a hero, put on a pedestal to be worshiped like a sporting Titan. He was untouchable.
He was also a liar.
The old adage goes that when something seems too good to be true, then it usually is. Not only was Armstrong and his team at the center of "the most sophisticated, professionalized and successful doping program that sport has ever seen," but he was also a liar, a cheat, and a bully. We all know the public persona of Lance Armstrong, now we'll get the chance to see the man behind the curtain.
At the moment there is no one on board to write, direct, or star in the movie, so let your imagination run wild with suggestions in the comments. You never know, Hollywood may be listening.

Dom Perignon a Benedictine monk at the Abbey of Hautvillers invented champagne. Champagne is really a wine. There are two characteristics to champagne. It has to come from the regulated 81,600 acres of the Champagne region in France. Champagne is a blend of different varieties of grapes unlike wine. He allowed carbon dioxide to build up in the fermentation process and created bubbles. There are 49 million bubbles in one 750ml bottle of champagne. The pressure in a bottle of champagne is 90 pounds per square inch about three times that in an automobile tire.
Legend tells that the champagne "coupe" a goblet was modeled in the shape of Marie Antoinette's breast using wax molds. A cork leaves the bottle at a velocity of 38-40mph but can pop out as fast as 100 mph! The largest champagne glass unveiled in Italy stands 7 feet tall and can hold 22 bottles of regular champagne. The famous Marilyn Monroe is said to have taken a bath in bubbly. It took 350 bottles to fill the tub! The official champagne of the Titanic was Heidsieck and Co Monopole Blue Top Champagne Brut. Rumor has it that there were a few bottles brought up with the salvage and still tasted great!
If you put a raisin in a glass of champagne it will keep floating to the top and sinking to the bottom! The bubbles in champagne actually carry alcohol into the bloodstream faster! Good champagne has bubble trains on the sides of the glass. This is called collerette.Champagne has three times the gas content of beer! It emits 30 bubbles per second! Beer only produces 10 bubbles per second. The release of the bubbles actually creates the release of flavours and aromas that we know from champagne and this is what merchants call "feel." If you open a bottle of champagne and there is a loud pop then you have actually lost bubbles.
You should use crystal glasses when drinking champagne and they have to be tall and narrow so that they confine the bubbles and focus the aroma. You should let champagne sit for a couple of minutes after pouring it because it intensifies the aroma and taste! Rose Champagne is becoming more popular. The demand grew by 3% in 2006. Unlike, wines champagne will not improve with age. There is only a small amount of champagne that can be made because it can only be made from one particular land in the world so enjoy it!

'Anna Karenina' excites Keira Knightley
"It's very exciting. We're right in the middle of it. It's totally different than this; it's a very, very stylised version of it, and she's a tricky character," femalefirst.co.uk quoted her as saying.
The "Anna Karenina" cast also includes Jude Law, Matthew Macfadyen, Aaron Johnson and Kelly Macdonald. It is slated for release Sep 7.
But before the movie, the actress will be seen with Steve Carell in "Seeking A Friend For The End Of The World", directed by Lorene Scafaria.

"This is weird, right?" asked Islands leader Nick Thorburn from the stage of the Black Cat on Wednesday night. He surveyed the tables and chairs set up across floor of the main room — which recast the venerated indie rock club as an off-kilter martini lounge — and allowed a cracked grin to spread across his face.
The Canadian band thrives on the off-kilter, and its excellent set underscored both Thorburn's eccentricities and his enormous songwriting gifts.
The majority of the hour-plus performance was dedicated to "A Sleep & A Forgetting," Islands' haunting and spare new album, which inhabits a world where dreams, mental breakdown and regret are fundamental to existence. Thorburn and Geordie Gordon (who both played keyboards and guitar) led the quartet through a stirring recitation of the tracks, hitting high points on such spectral songs as "Oh Maria" and "This Is Not A Song," where it was possible to believe they were poignantly brokenhearted lounge singers.
The band didn't turn completely away from the impish, squiggly pop songs that dominated its three previous albums (and drew a near-capacity audience). Thorburn eventually asked the crowd to push forward — and kick over the tables and chairs if they felt like it.
The Black Cat suddenly returned to its old self, and Islands responded with a couple of older tunes (including 2006's "Don't Call Me Whitney, Bobby," offered as a backhanded tribute) and the new "Hallways," cast as an infectious, barrelhouse-piano stomp.
Ultimately, the show confirmed that Thorburn and Islands remain a vital creative force, wandering along the pop music margins, searching for ways to keep their pop melodies as genuinely weird as possible.

The Future of Food?
Exploring this question was the lofty goal of a symposium I attended at University of Notre Dame hosted by the Nanovic Institute for European Studies (has link to symposium brochure). So with some jeans, high-heeled sneakers and organic instant oatmeal I hit the road.
Aside from being personally horrified out about how we're producing and consuming food, I wanted to see the Notre Dame campus, where my grandfather was an undergraduate and played baseball until going off to war as a Marine, ultimately in Okinawa.. oh, and there was the convenient stop through my college town of Pittsburgh on the way back. But back to the horrified part.
So the US is growing increasingly urban and suburban and in the DC/Chesapeake area, I've seen so many small farms turn into developments. As a matter of fact and as fate would have it, I now live in such a development. So despite efforts from folks in recent years to buy food more locally, it's increasingly difficult with the production coming primarily from large production farms while smaller ones get less assistance and struggle with challenging logistics, market factors, cicadas, you name it.
It's all resulted in vegetables that travel way further than most inner city kids ever will, and most certainly not to the inner city kids themselves where there are the 'food deserts,' in which urban residents can find convenience stores and fast food restaurants on the blocks that once held grocery stores.
The good news is that there have been some creative and enterprising folks out there coming up with more sustainable and responsible ways of producing food (google vertical farming/growing); and they are ways that can be implemented on various scales and closer to people who need access to the food. Can these solutions compete with big, subsidized agribusiness? And are they possible predictors of how we'll be making food in the future? First up that day to address it, a terribly amusing cynic.
Felipe Fernandez-Armesto, an historian of food and apparently everything else, can cruise through history of the universe like the delighted animated characters in a movie whipping around on an oh-so perilous but joyful ride. There was a 'proliferation of lipids,' and industrial techniques transforming the North American prairie from a desert to a bread basket. Ultimately we were concluding that genetic modifications are widening the wealth gap which leads to 'unintended diliterious results and global violence' as well as a 'let's all get to the trough' cheapening of food mentality which ultimately equates to 'rubbish for all.'
And before you could say poppycock, he was proclaiming the gloooories of fat with dramatic, leeengthy rolling vowels out of the side of his mouth with the grand British presentation you'd expect from such a professor – only multiplied by a factor of 10. In other words, I bought (one of) his book(s).
Stick with me! There were many great speakers but I'm growing prolific and you are probably just trying to surf the internet for good recipes, so I will cover two more dudes, briefly, and finish up with some cool links and a Breakfast Sausage recipe that I'm trying out this week while I make plans for Memorial Day weekend entertaining. [Though if you're interested in more, drop a line because I've got more.]
But first! If you don't already know about Will Allen, his urban farming and Growing Power in Milwaukee then you must click the links and buy his book as well.
He is a hero. I was thrilled to meet him at this symposium. He took time to talk with any of us who were interested and his story is fascinating. I was born in '70 and grew up just outside Northwest DC and have really never heard the personal stories about how the area became home to so many freed slaves from the South and that Will Allen and his classmates transferred from from a segregated school to sophomore year at Richard Montgommery High in 1964 when it became integrated.
Here is a terribly blurry picture I took with the flash off. I did not inherit my father's surgeon hands, but hey, it's a picture of Will Allen at our meeting.
Another pioneer in urban gardening and farming, and self titled Gangsta Gardner, Ron Finley is revitalizing and providing food for urban areas in LA. And he's a hoot, so subscribe to his newsletter and also read 'Drive-Throughs are Killing More People than Drive-Bys.'
Check out Bell Aquaculture, a land-based, sustainable fishery. They're growing perch like those that are indigenous to the Great Lakes in great quantities and in ways that prevent any escape of farmed fish into the wild or for wild fish into the farming system. All of this somehow allows them to raise these fish without any antibiotics. I had some of their perch for lunch that day and it was delicious.. of course I chowed down lunch and didn't take pictures until I was just about decimating this rhubarb pie.
Alright, one last wonderful thing to check out: this beautiful community Prinzessinnengarten that was created on a neglected, bombed out site in Berlin…
… and then go buy yourself about 5 pounds of pork shoulder and trim and cube it up because we're going to have Breakfast Sausage with biscuits soon. In the meantime and in the interest in having one decent picture, I'll end with a picture of returning home to our river beach and many blessings.
Breakfast Sausage with Fresh Ginger and Sage
I'm going to attempt to grill mine, which is likely to have modest results at best, but breakfast sausage can be used any which way. Just use it as crumbles or form patties or stuff it into sausage casings. My plan is to roll mine into logs in plastic wrap and then freeze them so I can cut disks out of it. I might throw it on the grill semi-frozen to help it keep together. I'll follow up soon!
5 lbs/ 2.25 kilograms boneless pork shoulder, diced
1.5 oz/ 40 grams kosher salt (about 3 Tbsp)
5 Tbsp/ 50 grams ginger, peeled and finely grated (or 1 Tbsp ground dried ginger)
5 Tbsp/ 50 grams fresh sage, finely chopped
1 Tbsp/18 grams garlic, minced
2 tsp/ 6 grams ground black or white pepper
1 cup/ 250 milliliters ice water
20 feet/ 6 meters sheep casings, soaked in tepid water 30 minutes and rinsed (optional)
- combine all ingredients but water and toss to distribute the seasoning; chill until ready to grind
- grind mixture through the small die into a bowl set on ice (keep everything cold - I chill my grinder attachment)
- add the water to the meat mixture in the mixer bowl and mix with paddle attachment until the liquid is incorporated and the mixture has developed a uniform appearance, about 1 minute on medium speed
- saute a small portion of the sausage and taste for seasoning; make adjustments to mix as needed
- stuff sausage into the casings and twist to 4-inch/10 cm links, or shape into patties; refrigerate or freeze until ready to cook; or roll into a log, wrap in plastic and freeze, slice into patties
- gently saute or roast the sausage to an internal temperature of 150 degrees F/ 65 degrees C
This recipe is from Charcuterie: The Craft of Salting, Smoking and Curing by Michael Ruhlman and Brian Polcyn

Characteristics of Depression
Depression is more than having a bad day from time to time or feeling sad. Genetics, life events, hormones, and even medications can all cause or contribute to depression. Depression plays out differently for each person. However, there are some common characteristics that help identify an episode of depression.
Emotional Characteristics
The primary symptom of depression is having feelings of sadness or unhappiness. For some patients, these feelings last for days or even weeks, and nothing appears to help. Over time, these emotions may turn into feelings of hopelessness or thoughts of suicide. Episodic or unexpected crying may occur. Some patients experience a fluctuation in moods, becoming irritable of frustrated quickly.
Changes in Normal Functioning
One of the best indicators of depression is a change in functioning, particularly in multiple settings. For example, many depression sufferers find it difficult to function well at home, work or school. Performance or functioning in these areas typically decreases and is noticeable to both the sufferer and those around him. Some patients experience a lack of interest in pleasurable or normal activities as well as a reduction in sex drive. Some patients find it difficult to get out of bed, bathe or get dressed. If depression is impacting performance at work, it can be beneficial to take some time off to try and address what may be causing the depression or to just relax.
Physical Characteristics
Patients suffering from depression often experience various physical symptoms that appear to have no known medical source. Back pain and headaches are common complaints. Some patients report feeling tired and exhausted most of the time, no matter how much sleep or rest they get. It can be difficult to concentrate, and in extreme cases, motor functions and body movements become slower.
Changes in Eating Habits
It is not uncommon for depression sufferers to experience changes in eating habits. Some patients find that they tend to eat more when depressed, or they eat more foods that are high in fat and sugar. Other patients lose their appetite or eat less frequently.

Here we can see Peter telling the Jewish believers that they have a "living hope" and describes that hope as an inheritance:
"Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a living hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you" (1 Pet.1:3-4).
When Peter speaks of a "living hope" he is speaking of the "hope" found in Paul's epistles:
"Awaiting our blessed hope, and the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ" (Titus 2:13).
That is exactly the same "hope" which the Apostle John refers to here and it is in regard to the time when Christians will be made like the Lord Jesus when "he shall appear" at the Rapture:
"Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is. And every man that hath this hope in him purifieth himself, even as he is pure" (1 Jn.3:2-3).
Peter ties the inheritance of the Jewish believers to that which is "reserved in heaven" and that can only be in regard to the new body which those in the Body of Christ will put on at the Rapture:
"To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you" (1 Pet.1:4).
The following words of Paul speak of this inheritance:
"...after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory" (Eph.1:13-14).
The Holy Spirit is given as the earnest of the Christian's "inheritance," and the Christian will inherit the purchased possession on the "day of redemption":
"And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption" (Eph.4:30).
In his comments on this verse Dr. Harold W. Hoehner says, "The fact that the Holy Spirit may be grieved points to His personality. His seal of a believer remains until the day of redemption, the time that a believer receives his new body (cf. 1:14, Phil. 3:20-21)" [emphasis added] (Walvoord and Zuck, The Bible Knowledge Commentary; New Testament [Colorado Springs: ChariotVictor Press 1983], 637).
The following words of Paul are in regard to the "redemption of our body":
"And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body" (Ro.8:23).
It is the heavenly body which is the purchased possession and all those in the Body of Christ will put on that body at the Rapture. That is the same exact inheritance of which Peter speaks of here:
The "hope" mentioned in the previous two passages from the New Testament is the same "hope" which Paul says in "laid up in heaven" for those in the Body of Christ:
"We give thanks to God and the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always for you, Since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love which ye have to all the saints, For the hope which is laid up for you in heaven, whereof ye heard before in the word of the truth of the gospel" (Col.1:3-5).
The "hope" is laid up in heaven and that brings us back to 1 Peter 1:4:
Here Paul describes the glorious body which the Christian will put on as "our house which is from heaven":
"For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven" (2 Cor.5:1-2).
Peter tells those in the Body of Christ that their inheritance is "reserved in heaven" for them and Paul makes it plain that the "house" or new body which the Christian will put on at the Rapture "is from heaven." Here we can see that the Christian will put on a heavenly body:
"As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly. And as we have borne the image of the earthy, we shall also bear the image of the heavenly. Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption" (1 Cor.15:48-50).
In his commentary on 1 Corinthians 15:48-50 Dr. David K. Lowery says that "With all that had preceded about the need for the natural body to give way to the spiritual, it followed that flesh and blood, the natural body, could not enter the eternal state" (The Bible Knowledge Commentary; New Testament, 545).
From all of this we know that the Jewish Christians who received the Hebrew epistles will put on glorious bodies just like the Lord Jesus' gloroius body at the rapture and those bodies will be heavenly bodies because at that time their destinity will be the heavenly realm.
Peter used the word "incorruptible" to describe the Christian's inheritance:
Paul uses the same exact word to describe the body which those in the Body of Christ will put on at the Rapture:
"Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality" (1 Cor.15:51-53).
At 1 Peter 1:4 it is said that the inheritance is one "that fadeth not away." Later in the same epistle Peter refers to the same inheritance as a "crown of glory" and says that it "fadeth not away:
"The elders which are among you I exhort, who am also an elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed...And when the chief Shepherd shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away" (1 Pet.5:4).
Paul practically mirrors that passage when he speaks of the same exact thing here:
"When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory" (Col.3:4).
Those in the Body of Christ will "appear with Him in glory" because they will put on a new, glorious body just like the Lord's glorious body:
"For our citizenship is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall change our lowly body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself" (Phil.3:20-21).
The Apostle Paul's words in regard to what will happen at the rapture and his description of the bodies which Christians will put on then matches perfectly with the verses from the Hebrew epistles which I have quoted. Paul describes the Lord Jesus' coming at the rapture as being imminent and we see that same exact teaching in the Hebrew epistles. Paul says that we will put on glorious heavenly bodies like the Lord Jesus' body at the rapture and that same exact thing is indicated in the Hebrew epistles. Both Paul and Peter use the same exact word, "incorruptible," to describe the body which we will put on at the rapture and both refer to it is a "hope" and our "inheritance."
Folks, If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck then it is a duck! There can only be one imminent coming of the Lord Jesus and that coming is the rapture. Since only those in the Body of Christ will be raised at the rapture then common sense dictates that those who received the Hebrew epistles are members of the Body of Christ.

Lakones is definitely a village that deserves to be explored.
It is found on the way to one of the most frequently visited spots in Corfu, that of "Bella Vista". So to get to Bella Vista everyone crosses this beautiful village but not many stop.
It will not take you long since it is not a huge place, but walking around it is going to be just a pleasing experience.
A visit to Lakones can be combined with a day at the beach in Paleokastritsa and an early evening coffee in Bella Vista. Or for those that wish to do more things in a day then why not explore the mountainous region of Corfu. Entering into the small roads from Troumpeta and following the signs for Angelokastro, Lakones, Paleokastritsa and further on Corfu Town.

2 Chicago men provide sleeping bag coats for homeless population
FOX 32 NEWS - Two friends who now call Chicago home started a yearly tradition to give back to the community.
That promise has led to tens of thousands of dollars in donations, and those donations are now being used to help Chicago's homeless population.
Every winter, Dan Chester and Robinson Elsdale ask each other one question: "What are we going to do this year?"
Chester and Elsdale have made it their mission to give back during the most brutal time to be on the streets of Chicago.
Elsdale asked, "why don't we give away sleeping bags."
Both men didn't know that idea would lead to a larger movement, providing the city's homeless population with sleeping bag coats.
The duo took their message to the public through a GoFundMe page.
"This was a far bigger project than we first anticipated," added Elsdale. "It was far more successful, the response from friends, family, complete strangers and even other organizations was quite astounding."
The friends teamed up with an organization in Detroit called the Empowerment Plan. The non-profit gives single mothers who have lived on the streets or in shelters the opportunity to make these coats.
"They manufacture a coat that actually transforms into a sleeping bag and then into a coat," added Chester. "And it can be carried, so it's light enough but it's also warm enough."
It is made with material from Carhartt and donations from General Motors.
"We figured this was the perfect match for what we wanted to do," Chester said.
Chester and Elsdale took the Empowerment coats to the streets in Chicago.
"Oh yes!", said one recipient. "Now that's stylish. Thank you!"
They were a big hit.
"I feel that more than ever we need to really take a look inside and think as to what we're doing for not just the people we love and the people closest to us, our friends, family, but strangers," added Elsdale. "We can make a huge impact."
So far, the duo has bought 135 coats and they're hoping to get more.
"I have no idea why it is some people end up on the streets and for all I know, I could be that very person," Chester said. "I would hope that my community, my neighborhood, my city would bond together to look out for me the same way that I'm trying to do for them."
A warm jacket, a warm embrace and an even more grateful heart.
The friends, so far, have raised nearly $14,000 and counting.
If you'd like more information about how you can donate, here's the GoFundMe.

Former President Mary Robinson was 'moved to tears' by Riverdance's famous Eurovision 1994 performance
More than twenty years on, Riverdance's famous performance during the interval of 1994's Eurovision remains one of Ireland's most iconic television moments and it seems Former President Mary Robinson might remember the evening just as fondly as the rest of the nation.
A new book 'Ireland and the Eurovision' by David Blake Knox has revealed that Mary Robinson became a little bit teary eyed as Michael Flatley and Jean Butler took to the stage at the then Point Theatre.
Although an RTE camera captured the moment Mary wiped away a few tears during the performance, he made the editorial decision not to broadcast the shot.
"I thought it would have been a cheap shot and I've never regretted that call," he said in the book.
The book also revealed that senior managers of Eurovision Ireland were sceptical about Flatley's wish to tie sex and Irish dancing together and also said they were keen to cast local Irish people instead of Irish-Americans.
"One of them burst out laughing, some of them looked confused, and several of them displayed obvious signs of distaste and disapproval," Flatley said.
"There was a pause when I had finished my enthusiastic but rather incoherent account of the rehearsal show. Then, one senior manager fixed me with a baleful eye, and asked, 'Could we not find any Irish people that can dance?'"
Since the Eurovision debut, Riverdance has been seen live by more than 22 million people in over 350 venues around the world.
The show will have its 12th summer season at the Gaiety Theatre from 23 June - 30 August 2015.

Pre-foreclosure sales (typically short sales) increased to a three-year high in the first quarter of 2012 even as the average pre-foreclosure sales price reached a record low — making 2012 a prime time to purchase a short sale.
But the process of buying a short sale and the discounts available can vary widely based on the lender/servicer/investor involved in approving the sale. Some banks are approving short sales more often, more quickly and at lower prices than others.
In light of that RealtyTrac has ranked the best major banks to work with when buying short sale homes. These rankings are based on a combination of three factors: year-over-year increase in pre-foreclosure sales for the first quarter; biggest discount on pre-foreclosure sales (compared to the average price of non-foreclosure homes in the first quarter; and the average number of days to sell a short sale (from foreclosure start to sale date).

Shifting From REOs to Short Sales
Agents and other local experts are noticing that banks are shifting away from sales of foreclosed (REO) homes in favor of pre-foreclosure short sales.
"We're seeing a shift in the market. I closed 10 short sales last year. This year, I'm on track to do 100 short sales," said Ben Hirsh, broker/owner of Hirsh Real Estate Specialists in the affluent Buckhead district in Atlanta.
Banks are speeding up short sales after settling the robo-signing debacle, said Hirsh, noting that lenders are offering distressed sellers monetary incentives for short sales. He added that lenders make more money selling short sales rather than REO sales.
In Miami, former hedge fund manager turned real estate investor Carlos A. Guajardo of Maynada Capital Advisors, also is seeing the shift.
"The big change here in Miami is that we are moving out of REO and into short sales," said Guajardo, who said he owns a portfolio of 130 rental properties in south Miami, many purchased as foreclosures.
Advice for Short Sale Buyers and Investors
Short sale specialist David Dufresne, broker and CEO at Solutions For Short Sales, Inc., in San Ramon, Calif., cautioned that not all lenders in every situation are opting for short sales if they don't think it's in their best interest.
"Second lien holders like PNC/Etrade/Greentree are forcing homes to foreclosure regardless if they are purchase money or not by asking for large cash contributions often unattainable," he said, noting that purchase money loans are non-recourse in California, meaning lenders cannot go after the borrower for any amount of the loan not recouped by the foreclosure.
In addition, Dufresne warned that entities such as Freddie Mac, Fannie Mae and the California Housing Finance Agency (CALHFA) are "clamping down on hardships," and allowing properties to go to foreclosure rather than approving a short sale if the borrower cannot show what they consider a valid hardship situation.
"Buyers and investors should interview the selling agent before writing an offer on any short sale to make sure that the agent understands how to structure a short sale offer for approval," Dufresne said. "Agents that are un-knowledgeable or inflexible in the structuring of offers often fail their clients."
Short sales increased 25 percent in the first quarter of 2012, with average discounts of 21 percent. Sign up for a free trial for full access to short sale bargains nationwide.

Biology is one of the original natural sciences, even reaching back as far as the study of anatomy in ancient Egypt, where evidence has been found of surgery, forensics, and anatomical knowledge of both organ structure and function. Biology in general is the study of life and living organisms, with specific attention to function, growth, evolution, identification and taxonomy. Modern biology is becoming an interdisciplinary field, overlapping with biomedical engineering, molecular chemistry, and genetics. The biological sciences recognize the cell as the basic unit of life, and DNA as the basic unit of heredity. Moreover, all organisms survive by consuming and transforming energy via respiration or photosynthesis, and by regulating their internal environment via homeostasis.
The life sciences are defined by the scale at which organisms are studied, in that biochemistry focuses on chemical processes of life while molecular biology involves molecules and protein synthesis. Cellular biology may be broken down further into a structural analysis of cell organelles and lipid membrane boundries, such as in skin tissue or alveolar sacs in the lungs. In the field of genetic engineering, DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) may be spliced together from different organisms, in an attempt to transfer hereditary traits that may increase crop yields, create a supply of stem-cells, or even clone sheep. Beyond major requirements within the biological science department, you may consider Labette Community College vocational nursing as a complementary elective to your primary course of study.

A Walk on the Wild Side The Pacific Northwest guards its natural beauty fiercely, especially from real-estate-sucking Californians, who've despoiled the landscape nearly as much as clearcutting. (As far back as the early '70s, Oregonians were greeting Californians with bumper stickers that read "Have a nice visit -- please don't stay," or something to that effect.) California will try to make nice this evening at the Earth Day release party for the CD compilation Fish-Tree-Water Blues. Proceeds from CD sales benefit the Earthjustice Legal Defense Fund (formerly the Sierra Club Legal Defense Fund), a nonprofit environment-friendly law firm working for the preservation of clean waterways, old-growth forests, and the now-waning salmon population -- Northern California is actually part of the contested territory. Ani DiFranco, Etta James, Loudon Wainwright, and Mavis Staples are among the musicians whose originals and covers highlight the album; contributors Charlie Musselwhite, Tracy Nelson, and the Robert Cray Band take the blues live at the party, which begins at 8 p.m. at the Fillmore, 1805 Geary (at Fillmore), S.F. Admission is $35; call (510) 762-2277.
April 23
Pretty in Pink, Part Deux Whether your prom memories are the blissful, pawing-your-dream-date kind or the terrifying, dodging-buckets-of-pig's-blood variety, rest assured that somewhere some adult who just can't seem to let the prom go has made a movie or planned a theme party to help you either relive your experiences or blot them out with new ones. "New Wave City Prom Night" is just such a party. The roaming '80s dance club pays tribute to Pretty in Pink, the prom movie of the '80s, in which director John Hughes got a few things right, like Molly Ringwald's lacy, polka-dotted abomination of a prom dress, and most things wrong (Jon Cryer over James Spader? C'mon!). For people of a certain age, no curfew, no high-school politics, your own wheels, and easy access to liquor ought to improve the odds of a good time immensely, and this time you only have to wear '80s fashions if you want to: Prom King and Queen awards will be given to the best dressed. DJs will be spinning late-'70s/early '80s dance tunes and romantic ballads in the Slow Dance room -- have your picture taken in the photo booth and thumb your nose at Ringwald in the video lounge. The party begins at 9 p.m. at 550 Barneveld (at Oakdale), S.F. Admission is $5-10; call 675-LOVE.

Rock Their Worlds Jeff Ott came by his social consciousness the hard way, as an abused homeless kid with a substance-abuse problem. Because of whom he met and what he saw, Ott is determined that his band Fifteen, born of the Bay Area punk band Crimpshine, make an impact beyond that of the teeth-rattling feedback variety. That makes Fifteen the perfect candidate to play the launch party for Sub City Records, an offshoot of punk-ska label Hopeless Records. Five percent of all Sub City releases will go toward charities handpicked by the label's bands: So far, beneficiaries include New Day Runaway Shelter and the Redwood Summer Justice Project. Fifteen headlines the launch party, preceded by Voodoo Glow Skulls tourmates Falling Sickness and the old-school punk of Albuquerque's Scared of Chakra. Doors open at 7 p.m. at the Cocodrie, 1024 Kearny (at Columbus), S.F. Admission is $7; call 986-6678.
Can't Help Lovin' Those Men They're a cheeky bunch, those Gay Men's Chorus fellas; they've given us "KGAY, FM: Sounds of the '60s," with camp queen Florence Henderson, and demanded "Gimme Gimme Gimme (A Man After Midnight)" at their ExtrABBAganza. Maybe it's a case of laughing to keep from crying: The Gay Men's Chorus got off to a fairly tragic start nearly 20 years ago when they gathered on the steps of City Hall to memorialize slain city officials George Moscone and Harvey Milk in song, and since then they've lost nearly 200 members and sung as many AIDS requiems and elegies as they could be expected to stand. This spring's concert, "Misbehavin'," falls somewhere between the classical canon that informs their holiday concerts and the silly side of their theme shows. Broadway star Nell Carter joins them for an evening of '30s and '40s-era jazz with an emphasis on the elegant works of Duke Ellington. The show begins at 8 p.m. (also Sunday at 2 p.m.) at the Masonic Auditorium, 1111 California, S.F. Admission is $10-40; call 863-4472.
Bring On the Big Drums The rumble of distant drums has signaled anything from a war cry to Shinto religious ritual throughout Japan's history; tonight it heralds the U.S.-Japan Taiko Festival, a high point of the Cherry Blossom Festival, now in its second week. Taiko (literally "big drum") has become a popular attraction at local parades and festivals; its booming heartbeat sound carries well in crowds, and the sweaty theatrics of modern taiko drumming -- the quick position-switching and big flourishes -- are tightly woven into the intricate percussive patterns. This concert matches up local groups like San Francisco, Sacramento, and Sonoma County Taiko Dojos with Japan's Sakae Furusato Taiko and Awa Hachiman Taiko. The show begins at 7 p.m. at the AMC Kabuki Theater, Post & Fillmore, S.F. Admission is $15-20; call 563-2313. The Cherry Blossom Festival wraps up with the Grand Parade, which begins at 1 p.m. Sunday at Civic Center and travels up Polk to Fillmore; call 563-2313 for more information.

Sunday in the Park With Randy That would be Randy Porter, leading the public in a concert of instruments made from recyclables at the Berkeley Festival of the Arts Open Day Celebration. For the next month, the festival will uphold Berkeley's reputation for enthused nuttiness -- a highlight should be the Berkeley Mock City Council, an audience-participation event featuring nine political satirists (Diane Amos and Ed Holmes among them) directed by George Coates May 4 and 9 at the City Council Chambers. Opening day won't be any different, beginning with the invocation of the muse up through the South Berkeley Senior Tap Dancers, Miguel Frasconi's Glass Instrument Ensemble, Shakespeare in 15 Minutes, and the bicycle ballet -- look for the art cars lining the periphery. Local restaurants will sell boxed lunches at the celebration, which begins at noon at Martin Luther King Jr. Park, Allston & MLK, Berkeley. Admission is free; call (510) 665-9496 for a full schedule of events. Don't expect to find omnipresent hippie clown Wavy Gravy at opening day, though: He'll be serving as master of ceremonies at the People's Park 30th Anniversary Celebration. Food Not Bombs will cook and serve lunch, and with the exception of puppet shows and a skate ramp, entertainment runs heavily toward the musical, with the Caribbean Allstars, All Nations Drum, and hip-hop group Jalopy. The Ohlone Dancers will also perform at the fair, which begins at 11 a.m. at People's Park, Telegraph & Haste, Berkeley. Admission is free; call (510) 869-3538.
Whatever Floats Your Boat Maritime lore is dotted with disabled seamen (Long John Silver unfortunately comes to mind), but the Bay Area Association of Disabled Sailors hopes to get more people on the books, or at least out in the water. The daylong concert "Rock the Boat," which precedes the April 30 release of Robert Houston's documentary by the same name (about an HIV-positive yachting crew), benefits BAADS, a volunteer group that gives people with disabilities opportunities to enjoy recreational sailing. Budderball ("Jesus Got High") and 008 headline the show with sets of jazz-laced funk. Country-swing band the Wags; singer/songwriters Jessie Turner and Ed Haynes; and CNB, a Sunset-based outfit mixing reggae with surf, join in. "Rock the Boat" begins at 2 p.m. at Cafe Cocomo, 650 Indiana (at Mariposa), S.F. Admission is $5-10; call 281-0212. The concert is a perfect after-party for Opening Day on the Bay, the decorated boat parade marking the official opening of the 1999 boating season. This is the first time in 80 years that the parade has been opened to non-Yacht Club members -- the tension should be visible beginning at noon along the Embarcadero, from Crissy Field to Pier 39, S.F. Admission is free; call 823-6633.
April 26
The Language of Love Divina Commedia, the bilingual theater company that produces plays in English and French, looks to the East with its theatrical adaptation of the Alain Resnais film Hiroshima Mon Amour. Using the original script by Marguerite Duras as a starting point, Ann-Liese Juge adds Japanese butoh performed by Kinji Hiyashi to tell the story of a complicated love affair between a French actress and a Japanese architect in postwar Japan. The company performs the work (in English tonight, in French Tuesday) as part of a preview of its '99-2000 season; an excerpt from Jean Genet's The Maids is also included. The show begins at 8 p.m. at Noh Space, 2840 Mariposa (at Florida), S.F. Admission is $8.50-12; call 621-7987.
April 27
!Madre de Dios! Dammit the Wonder Dog, the Circus Redickuless mascot, may be dismayed to learn that he is not the only one of his kind: Chichufo the Wonder Dog, a Chihuahua with attitude, headlines the variety show "AHijo de Sabado Gigante: Un Martes Chingón!" or, for the Spanish-impaired, "Son of a Giant Saturday: A Bitchin' Tuesday!" Chichufo will lead the Chihuahua Couture Posse, a fashion parade of sartorially minded pups and their owners, and that's just one small, quaking part of what promises to be an unusually festive evening. San Jose's E Crew provides break dancers, and Las Cucas, a women's punk-mariachi band featuring performance artist Nao Bustamante, takes noisy liberties with romantic boleros and country-western rancheras. Raffle winners bring home the coveted Chorizo Shoes and the Chi Chi Chingona (Fierce Breast) pinata. The show, a fund-raiser for Galeria de la Raza, begins at 7 p.m. at the York Theater, 2789 24th St. (at York), S.F. Admission is $5-10; call 826-8009.
