A Hidden Disaster Grows In Sudan, Aid Officials Say
By JANE PERLEZ,
Published: September 16, 1992
NAIROBI, Kenya, Sept. 15— As relief agencies and diplomats struggle to deal with the famine in Somalia, they say a huge disaster, largely hidden from the world, has developed across the southern Sudan.
The famine is the result of a long-running civil war between the fundamentalist Islamic Government and a southern rebel group. It has reached a new intensity in recent months as the Government has made new gains and practiced scorched-earth policies against civilians.
The rebels, split and under heavy military pressure, have shelled Juba, the main Government-held town in the south and the main delivery point for emergency civilian relief aid, diplomats say. 300,000 Trapped in Town
The United Nations said a few days ago that more than a million people had been forced to flee their homes in the southern Sudan in the last six months, joining two million already displaced by the civil war. Many of those people are without food because the Khartoum Government, pressing its effort in the south, has banned relief flights into many areas. Some relief planes that have tried to deliver food have come under fire from the rebels.
In the besieged town of Juba, 300,000 civilians are trapped with little food, according to the United Nations World Food Program.
All foreign relief workers and missionaries were expelled from Juba by the Government by mid-August, making first-hand accounts of the situation almost impossible to obtain. Reporters are in effect barred from the town because the only planned landings are intermittent relief flights and Government military planes. The relief planes stay on the ground just long enough to unload, but often come under shelling on the airstrip and are forced to take off before doing so.
Emergency food flights to Juba resumed on Monday after a weeklong suspension to repair the runway, which was damaged by rebel artillery.
Southern rebels of the Sudan People's Liberation Army, most of them Christian or animist, have been battling the Muslim-dominated Government in Khartoum, in the north, since 1983. The Sudan declared itself an Islamic nation in 1990 after fundamentalists came to the fore under the current military Government headed by Gen. Omar Hassan al-Bashir, and the southern rebels were particularly incensed by that.
The Sudan has a population of 25 million and is the largest country in Africa in area. Its Government has been fortified by infusions of arms from Iran and China, and has waged the civil war with increased vigor and success this year.
Both sides in the fighting have used food as a weapon, particularly since 1988. The Islamic Government is hostile to relief agencies, including those that try to serve civilians in the northern part of the country. Much of the food that does reach Juba is commandeered by the army and rarely reaches the needy civilians, relief workers said.
The rebels have threatened to shoot down any aircraft bringing relief supplies to Juba. The rebels have also refused to allow the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees into Narus, a rebel-controlled town in the southern Sudan where the agency asserts that more than 1,000 Sudanese boys are being held after being taken from a refugee camp in northern Kenya.
Earlier this year, Government forces took a series of towns held by the People's Liberation Army, and then forced most of the civilians out.
One of the Government's goals, diplomats say, is to Islamize the south and thus forge a gateway for its fundamentalist ideas into the rest of Africa, especially Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania. Somalia Situation Different
Several differences mark the situations in the Sudan and Somalia, diplomats said. In the Sudan, the Government is well entrenched, is systematically blocking relief and is fighting a distinct rebel force. In Somalia, there is no Government: armed anarchy reigns almost everywhere.
So far, there does not appear to be the hideous degree of starvation in the Sudan that has occurred across central and southern Somalia. Rather, a total of a million people are crammed into small areas like Juba, along the border with Uganda, and in a few other hamlets with perilously little food. Hundreds of thousands of others are scattered across the vast territory of the southern Sudan.
The International Committee of the Red Cross was delivering frequent shipments of food aid, veterinarian help and medical support to the southern Sudan. But the Government has banned the Red Cross from flying into the south since February and from the overland routes since May. Repeated appeals to bring relief assistance to the southern Sudan have been rebuffed by the Government, Red Cross officials said.
The United Nations has been granted on-and-off permission by Khartoum to fly into remote hamlets of the south. Last week, on the eve of a visit to Khartoum by a high-level United Nations official, Jan Eliasson, the Under Secretary General for Humanitarian Affairs, the Government suddenly granted the United Nations permission to fly into several areas.
After a long period of obstruction, the Government also gave the World Food Program the go-ahead to deliver food by barge to mostly Government-held areas where tens of thousands of southerners have sought refuge after fleeing the fighting in the south. Tribal Split Among Rebels

POTATO STIR-FRY with BROWN RICE for DINNER.
Tonight was a fridge raid.
Had to use whatever vegetables I had for the stir-fry.
Carrots, red bell pepper and red onion.
3 vegetables didn't sound like enough, so I added 1 potato.
Never heard of potatoes in a stir-fry before. But why not?
Turned out to be a delicious discovery!

A evolução das áreas de influência demográfica e econômico-demográfica dos pólos econômicos brasileiros entre 1980, 1991 e 2000
This paper aims to offer demographic inputs to improve criteria of economic regionalization based on the polarization approach, which takes into account the urban network and its hierarchy. From a methodological perspective of an integrated analysis of economic and demographic factors of polarization, we incorporate in the regionalization method the population movements among geographical localities at the micro-spatial level. The final step is the development of an economic regionalization that integrates economic and demographic variables of flow and stock. Our methodological framework provides an understanding of the Brazilian urban poles regarding their influence areas and changes in their boundaries along the 70s, 80s and 90s, due to migration flows of the periods 1975/1980, 1986/1991 and 1995/2000. We use three alternative models. The first is based on migratory movements between the poles and other geographical areas, at micro, meso and macro spatial levels. The second replaces total migration flows by migration flows of the occupied labor force (OLF). And the third one measures migration flows of OLF by total incomes of OLF instead of the number of migrants.

text: I find myself wanting to change the Media volume fairly frequently. Unfortunately, the volume rocker doesn't control the Media Volume until there's media playing, which could be a pain if I'm trying not to disturb someone. Is there any other way to change the Media Volume without having to go into Sound & Display options -> Media volume? I guess like a Media volume widget?

Age Discrimination
ANNCR: Age Discrimination – Today on Congressional Moment.
The average life expectancy for Americans was 35 years when the country was founded, and has been rising steadily since then. As the workforce grew older, many Americans worked well into their 50s and 60s, usually retiring at age 65.
By the 1960s, more and more people were able to continue working well beyond age 65. But these long-time employees became more expensive for employers to keep as they moved up the salary scale.
Thousands of older workers and job seekers were victims of age discrimination. They were fired, forced to resign, passed over for promotions, and not hired simply because of their age. Reports of older workers being laid off just before their pension rights locked in, were common.
Congress heard testimony from many victims of age discrimination, and recognized the need for a law to provide protection. The Age Discrimination in Employment Act was enacted on December 15th, 1967, stating that all employment decisions - hiring, firing, lay-offs, and changes in benefit packages - must have a legitimate basis, and nothing to do with age.
The 1976 amendment to this Act raised the mandatory retirement age from 65 to 70. A 1986 amendment eliminated mandatory retirement ages completely. The author of the 1986 amendment, Representative Claude Pepper, was 86 at that time, and it was signed into law by Ronald Reagan, who, at the age of 75, was the oldest man to have been President.
STANDARD CLOSING: This is Lee Hamilton. Congressional decisions impact all our lives. To find out more about how Congress works, or to get involved in your government, visit the Center On Congress website at congress.indiana.edu.

Poonhill, Nepal - My Mountaintop Experience
This was both, the highest point we were going to get to on this trek, and the highest point in this, my post operative journey. I'm a goal setter, and along time ago, I had set myself the goal of doing the Camino Pilgrimage this year, but having time off work for my hip replacement, meant I couldn't have the time off also for the full Spanish holiday I wanted. Next best thing, climb a mountain!! And I did. (Although for Nepalese standards, Poonhill is not a mountain).
Our little party, guides and trekkers, took selfies, snapped photos from every vantage point and angle, but eventually you couldn't take anymore photos, it was time just to sit and be. (Luckily for my partner, there was a little tea stand on the top of that hill with hot coffee on offer).
We were on the top of Poonhill for probably 90 mins, before the steep stepped walk back to our trekkers lodge (teahouse) for a big breakfast. But those 90 minutes were really special. It was a time to reflect on just how big our world is, how diverse we all are, but yet how much were are the same. I saw the beauty of the pristine mountain ranges around us, and was reminded of what we do to the lands we have ready access to and how we must care and respect the earth in the places we live. Rescuing damaged lands is not an easy thing and protecting and maintaining natural environments is so important.
I was encouraged to come home and make a place where I will focus on these reflections, where I can find peace in my place, where I can remember and honour the people of the world.
When I share photos of Poonhill with others who have been there, they all gasp as they recall their own experience of being ontop of this hill. I hope I will be the same for along time.

Travelling Nepal
Trekking on the Goonapani cirtcuit for 5 days, we had many glimpses again of snow capped mountains, and opportunities to meditate on the amazing glory of this country.
Travelling brings with it opportunities to learn more about yourself, the people you travel with, and the host country. Today, we have changed our travel plans because we've been invited to join our hosts at their family home to celebrate the Hindu festival of Dashain. I'll post more about that when I know more about it...

Singapore weekend
My friends have joined my partner & I in singapore for a few days, so weve be creating an itinerary to suit all. So we've been to the botanic gardens (my choice), and to have breakfast with the Orangutans at the Zoo, and to see a light show at Marina Bay.. each experience different and exciting.
Breafast with th Orangutans (my friends choice to add to itinerary) was very touristy, as we sat down to a smorgasbord of Macdonalds quality french toast, waffles, eggs & terrible coffee with 100 other families. The Orangutans sat on a timber perch while individuals & families lined up in front of them for photos.
I had imagined something more like being seated in a location where we could watch them in their own space while they also had breakfast... more natural...
Now for the next phase of the journey, my partner & i are heading off to Nepal fora few weeks... a very different adventure.

Spring & Wellbeing
This spring my garden is flourishing, which is nice because the past few years its been a struggle. This Spring, I too have been flourishing after a long period of hip pain (since 2015). But since my hip replacement I've bounced back, as my garden has....
I see my vegetables as signals of wellbring in my garden & myself..
This magnolia is near my flat in the city, and it too, speaks to me of spring, new life & energy.. Next week, I am off to Nepal for my 2017 adventure, trecking in the Annapurna Ranges!!
So, here's to Spring 🍾🍹
I love this poem of an Australian Spring..
Spring is the magical time
When the rainbow lorikeets hum and the honey suckles Blossom,
When I actively bounce down the sand dunes
And onto the pea green grass,
The waratahs and the wattles bloom,
And my heart opens to the riot of spring.
I love this time when everything comes to life,
Nature triumphs in the trees, swaying freely in the wind,
Stealing my train of thought
And making my imagination run wild.
I am inspired by this heavenly kingdom,
The tranquillity of dew droplets falling,
The mastery of the rain.
I feel connected.
Tree sap trickles down the bark of native gum trees
I examine this , calmly, curiously.
Sometimes the wind whispers to me at dusk
Giving me confidence within my body
I promise
I will always make the most of springtime.

France's entry in Eurovision 2017
One of my Paris in July aims was to listen to more French music but I didn't really know where to start, when one of my friends noted she had really enjoyed Frances entry in this eurovision competition. Here is it - both a really energetic piece and a great video...
For some of my readers, you may not be familiar with Eurovision. It's an annual song competition between participating countries, where ABBA became an international sensation. Its been in existence for 62 years.
I was never quite sure why Australia followed, or even participated in this competition, but this explanation is quite helpful.
For some of my readers, you may not be familiar with Eurovision. It's an annual song competition between participating countries, where ABBA became an international sensation. Its been in existence for 62 years.
I was never quite sure why Australia followed, or even participated in this competition, but this explanation is quite helpful.
Australia first competed in 2015 when it was invited to participate in a gesture of goodwill for the show's 60th anniversary and its 'Building Bridges' theme. The country, which has a strong Eurovision following, has since remained in the competition, both confusing and upsetting many fans. The simple explanation as to why Australia is in Eurovision is that SBS, its host TV broadcaster, is part of the European Broadcasting Union (EBU), which oversees the organisation of the contest; in essence, this qualifies them for entry.This years French entry was selected... by the French broadcaster France Télévisions, in collaboration with their television channel France 2, who internally selected the song "Requiem" performed by Alma and written by Nazim Khaled to be the French entry for the 2017 contest in Kiev, Ukraine (Wikepedia)

Le Foret de Troncais et Les Chamignoux
This was our Gite... white stone collage with red wines.
Time to play with fires in cozy corners...
And like any good French village - they had hunts!
Located near the Forest of Tronçais (Forêt de Tronçais) we enjoyed walks, rides & picnics. This is a French national forest, a forêt domaniale, comprising 10,600 hectares in the Allier, managed by the Office national des forêts. Its oaks, planted by order of Jean-Baptiste Colbert, minister of Louis XIV to supply the French navy, constitute one of the principal stands of oaks in Europe. The oaks of Tronçais, representing some 80% of production, are prized for the barrels coopered for cognac and the great wines of Bordeaux.
I will share another special story from this part of the world in next weeks edition.

Musee du velo
On this particular day, my partner was in 7th heaven.... a collection of all things Bikes! This museum was in the country, somewhere around Cluny, a town we ended up staying in for over a week just because there was so much to do there.

The People remain standing. The husband and wife kneel, and the Priest says one of the following prayers:
Most gracious God, we give you thanks for your tender love in sending Jesus Christ to come among us, to be born of a human mother, and to make the way of the cross to be the way of life. We thank you, also, for consecrating the union of man and woman in his Name. By the power of your Holy Spirit, pour out the abundance of your blessing upon this man and this woman. Defend them from every enemy. Lead them into all peace. Let their love for each other be a seal upon their hearts, a mantle about their shoulders, and a crown upon their foreheads. Bless them in their work and in their companionship, in their sleeping and in their waking, in their joys and in their sorrows, in their life and in their death. Finally, in your mercy, bring them to that table where your saints feast for ever in your heavenly home; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who with you and the Holy Spirit lives and reigns, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
Or this:
O God, you have so consecrated the covenant of marriage that in it is represented the spiritual unity between Christ and his Church: Send therefore your blessing upon these your servants, that they may so love, honor, and cherish each other in faithfulness and patience, in wisdom and true godliness, that their home may be a haven of blessing and peace; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
The husband and wife still kneeling, the Priest adds this blessing:
God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit, bless, preserve, and keep you; the Lord mercifully with his favor look upon you, and fill you with all spiritual benediction and grace; that you may faithfully live together in this life, and in the age to come have life everlasting. Amen.

Review of "Acer N30"
"Acer N30 GPS Bundle"
Acer N30 PDA GPS bundle N30 PDA GPS bundle. This review is about the GPS although I will talk about the PDA see my other review for PDA. If you haven't heard of it GPS it is a satellite navigation system, which means that you can connect it to the PDA this is a hand held computer device, which then becomes a system that can direct you to anywhere you want to go. It is easily connected using, bluetooth technology connectivity. This device will talk to you telling you when to turn and directing you via an on screen picture visual on the PDA screen. All you do is insert the destination and you're away. It will give you the quickest directions, which will save you time energy and fuel.
The software used with the N30 PDA
N30 Samsung Processor at 266 MHZ, 64MB SDRAM, 32MB NAND Flash Memory, SD(SDIO)/MMC slot, Bluetooth, 3.5'' transflective TFT, Microsoft Windows Pocket PC 2003 Premium, BT GPS Receiver, 256MB SD Card, Destinator 3 software
The GPS is very good the maps are very easy to see and the voice is clear also and at £269 it is a bargain a hand held PC and a satellite navigation would usually cost on average £400, so you will save your self a lot of money, the only down side is that if the PDA is damaged you wont be able to use the GPS, but that's the price you will have to pay for this bargain!!!The new Acer N30 is very nice looking and compact, it has Microsoft windows and a processor.

darkangelwing published 28/12/2005Good review,well done, have a lovely new year (-:
trevorbrock published 28/08/2005Oh, by the way, I was surprised that you did not use your Acer N50 for this purpose,as it has better specs than the Acer N30 - No I am not a detective, you don't have to be to spot strange reviews
trevorbrock published 27/08/2005I think you may have loaded up the review on the pda rather than the GPS ! And the PDA info is all just tech specs rather than how you have found the system in use - Trevor

text: I took some lamb liver out of the freezer on Tuesday or Wednesday evening, and defrosted it on the lowest shelf of the fridge, approximate temperature 4-5C. It's in cryovac. Do you think it's still fit for human consumption? I was thinking of making a casserole tomorrow. (I'll post the recipe if anyone is interested.)


text: Is this team better than last year? Yes, this has been asked by many, but lets say ISU beats KU in this B12 tourney, we would make it to the finals for the first time since 2000. Yes, the B12 is down a bit this year, but ISU lost to UT first round of it last year and didn't pull through in the B12 tourney. Personally, I think they are showing that they are a more complete team with more weapons pulling through at different times and more three point shooters. Clyburn is good but there isn't a superstar like Royce, just more players that can come in the clutch at different times. This team has something special about them.

It is such a special time of year. In modern life styles it is easy to lose sight of how special a time it is. We seldom hear Morris Dancers coming through our lands and gardens celebrating the awakening of life all around us. So this cyber message is my celebration of the beauty that is everywhere these days. In these gardens Peter and I are privileged to care for and which reward us so richly, these images capture a bit of the special sights we are blessed with each day.
Come celebrate with us on Saturday, May 17th for the May Rest Stop For The Soul, Coming Home To Our Earth Family, there is still some room left. This Rest Stop is especially for honoring the Earth and her/our family of life and all the relationships that support us.
Here are some beds from the upper garden with Lettuce, Kale, Parsley and Dill basking in sun light.
Isn't this Lettuce seedling so beautiful, such an innocent energy!
In the lawn the sweet, sweet Spring Beauties look out with such intentness.
The May Flowers appear seemingly over night!!
I love the little grape Hyacinth and their sweet aroma.
I love how the Earth provides us with the perennial sources of food way ahead of the annual fruits.
Here is Sorrel, such a tender green, with its lovely lemony flavor, providing fresh greens already!
And Lovage already so tall and providing flavor for soups and salads, as well as green smoothies
From here the Lovage almost looks like a bush in the middle of the lower garden,
with the beds of Garlic further down the hill.
Here we see the Garlic in the foreground looking up the hill.
Here is the Garlic close up, doing wonderfully.
Here is the other side of the lower garden with Carrots just planted in the top bed and
Onion seedlings going in in the third bed down with Leeks to following bed,
and Cranberries in the next one down. Other beds await potatoes, beans and squash.
Each living seed has its preference for soil temperature, soil chemistry and planting time.
And lovely Chives, It is really a nice fresh touch in green smoothies.
and what a delight to see that the Sweet Cicely wintered over and is showing its aromatic head.
And of course the hardy Rhubarb is putting out its sensuous probing stems and leaves.
The Asparagus is already pushing up!
As well as the Peas, that spring up so sprightly! I love how alive and new born they appear!.
The Magnolia is holding its bud in anticipation!
The pear tree is more modest in its buds.
In the foreground to the left a small Pear Tree, in the center a Crab Apple
tree silhouetted against the pines, its tiny buds glistening in the sunshine.
The Peach tree, buds a glistening against the pines.
This is the yard from which we enjoy the garden around us and
where we meet for Rest Stops for the Soul.
This is the upper garden now, awaiting Tomatoes, Peppers, Broccoli and more herbs.
What a blessing this amazing Earth is in her many blessings of beauty and royal food for both body and soul.

Septic workshop
In trying to fully understand how the various branches of Oldham County government function, I've gone to court; specifically Oldham County Circuit Court.
During my first visit, there were two lawyers, Judge Karen Conrad and me. The lawyers sat and discussed motions, subpoenas, "special masters" and various legal issues in voices both calm and passionate. The judge asked thoughtful questions and made some decisions over the course of about an hour. The whole process reminded me of a chess match.
Have you ever asked yourself how come the world, with all its complex structures, hasn't collapsed? It is a miracle that this unimaginably complex system goes on without plunging into total chaos.
Anything Goes
Anything Goes, the musical, will be performed at Oldham County High School next week. The musicial will have four performances: April 17 and 18 at 7 p.m. and April 19, a matinee at 2 p.m and final performance at 7 p.m. For more information, contact Mary Hug at email@example.com or 502-445-9870.
NOMS student wins top award at fair
Recently, I was perusing my junior high yearbooks when I found the following inscription from 1983: "Gingeretta, you'd make a gorgeous model, ya know. I think Ricky Schroder doesn't know what he's been missing! Someday, when you're a rich, famous model, and I'm a rich, famous writer, I'll call you and say, 'Come on up to my penthouse for some champagne!' Have a smashing summer!!! Luv, Jo"
Jesus' preaching ministry is winding down. He has healed the sick, the lame and the blind, has raised people from the dead, walked on water, calmed the storm, fed thousands with a few loaves and fish and taught them about God's never ending love. He also embarrassed the religious elite repeatedly, while threatening their system of power with all their laws and sacrifices. They want him dead. He told his disciples they would get their wish over and over again before they got there.
La Grange Police Arrests
March 31 -- Richard T. Roberts, 34, Stamping Ground, was cited and released for suspended license, no insurance and on headlight.
As Oldham County charged to a second straight Region 8 title last year, one of its best players was stuck in the dugout.
Kailey Rigdon, a junior first baseman garnering Division-I interest, dove back into third base during a game over the 2013 spring break. The momentum of her dive carried her body forward, but her arm stayed put, grabbing the base.
A season-ending torn labrum in her shoulder was the result. The injury was especially frustrating, Rigdon said, because it affected her college plans.

I ordered a boutique dress on Thursday night, I had it by 8am Monday morning! Absolutely brilliant service. I've read a lot of unfair reviews on here. I have never had an issue with the delivery from Topshop before. They text and email the details of exactly where your item is and even though I live on a development with key code entry there was no problem! Brilliant.

Love God
At Cornerstone Church our primary mission is not growing a great organization, but rather helping people to know and love the God Who already loves them perfectly. In Matthew 22:37-39, Jesus answered the question of why you exist by saying that the greatest commandment is "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it, 'Love your neighbor as yourself.'"
Equip Believers
At Cornerstone, equipping every believer is absolutely essential because our survival depends on it. Our mission statement reads, "We develop (equip) God's people to Christian maturity through a community with vibrant worship, biblical teaching, personalized equipping and genuine care."
What is the goal of equipping? Ephesians 4:13 give us the answer: "the whole measure of the fullness of Christ." Simply put, an equipped Christian thinks and lives like Jesus.
Answer God's Call
Our mission states, "We empower God's people to answer God's call to serve Him."
What is it going to take to answer God's call to serve?
Four Golden Rules for Servants Who Answer God's Call:
1. Look around you for an opportunity to serve. John 9:1-4
2. Serve in a ministry tailored for you. Ephesians 2:10
3. Approach your service with humility. John 13:13-17
4. Let love for God motivate your service. Revelation 2:2-5
Declare the Good News
The essence of the Christian message is good news. Cornerstone's mission states, "We exist to be lovers of God who communicate the good news of God's love found in Jesus Christ." The essential content of the good news is given in 1 Corinthians 15:3-4: "Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures." Jesus, God's only Son, paid the ultimate price by dying for our sins as our righteous substitute. Then Jesus was buried and after three days in the grave proved that He was the Son of God by rising from the dead. The Bible declares that by believing in Jesus as your personal Savior and Lord you can be assured of God's forgiveness and receive God gracious gift of eternal life. Ephesians 2:8-9 states "For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast."
Cornerstone Church believes the gospel, communicates the gospel, lives the gospel and is not ashamed of the gospel because it is the power of God to transform everyone who believes it (see Romans 1:16).
We believe that God breathed out the original writings of both Old and New Testaments to the prophets and apostles by means of the Holy Spirit, Who chose the words they employed according to the personality and background of these human authors. The sixty-six books comprise the complete and errorless word of God and are the final authority in what we believe and how we are to live.
We believe that there is only one true God who eternally exists as three equal persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit, who exclusively share in the work of creation, ruling the universe, redeeming lost humanity and final judgment.
We believe that man was uniquely created in the image of God; but because of Adam's sin that image was damaged so that all human beings are now born with a sinful nature, are unable to function in moral responsibility before holy God, and need spiritual regeneration before they can become what God designed them to be.
We believe that Jesus, the eternal Son of God, entered the human race as the holy virgin-born son of Mary. He fulfills the Old Testament prophecies of the Messiah: He was rejected by Jewish leaders, condemned by Pontius Pilate, crucified by the Romans and buried in a borrowed tomb. On the third day Jesus arose bodily from the dead, consistent with what He predicted and the Scriptures foretold. He ascended to heaven and is now seated at the right hand of the Father.
We believe Jesus died on the cross as a sinless substitute for sinful men of every era. We believe that salvation is a gift of God's electing grace to all who place their faith in His Son Jesus as their Lord and Savior. Through His death, God the Father reconciled the world to Himself so that all who personally receive Jesus are eternally secure in the family of God.
We believe that the resurrected Jesus ascended to heaven and on the day of Pentecost sent the Holy Spirit to convince, indwell, guide, comfort and empower all who believe. The Spirit gives believers new life in Christ so that they may live godly lives and engage in love-prompted service to others in accordance with their God-given gifts and passion.
We believe that the Church consists of all who have been regenerated by the Spirit and finds its expression as local churches, operating under the direction of Jesus as Head of His body through qualified elders. The role of all church leadership is to be servants who develop God's people to fulfill their God-given ministry.
We believe that Jesus commanded us to baptize new believers as an outward symbol of their spiritual identification with Christ's death, burial and resurrection, and it is our practice to baptize by immersion in water. Jesus also commanded all true believers to remember His death until He comes by taking the bread and the cup that symbolize His broken body and precious blood.
We believe that Satan exists and is the originator of sin. He is the arch-enemy of God and man. He persistently seeks to counterfeit the works and truth of God. His eternal destiny is to be cast into the lake of fire forever.
We believe that Jesus Christ will return to this earth visibly and bodily in power and great glory. He will come for His church prior to His millennial reign on earth. At the end of the millennium Satan will incite a final resurgence of evil that will be totally and finally vanquished by God, and a new heaven and new earth will be created in which perfect righteousness will eternally dwell. All human beings will be raised from the dead to face God. Believers will enjoy eternal blessedness called heaven and unbelievers will face eternal separation from God.
We value authentic community...where relationships are built on honesty, cooperation, commitment and sacrificial love for one another. Everyone is welcome in Cornerstone's diverse community...where being transformed into the image of Christ is highly valued and where God's power and presence is evident. Our relationship with Jesus Christ and each other is the glue that holds us together. The source of our community is the love of Jesus Christ for each one of us. John 13:35 - 1 John 3:16 - 1 Peter 2:5 - 1 Corinthians 12:13
Prayer is actively promoted as our personal and corporate discipline. When combined with faith, prayer yields amazing results. Our dependence on God to do what we cannot do reminds us that with God all things are possible.
Ephesians 6:18 - 1 John 5:14 - John 15:7
We believe that man was uniquely created in the image of God. But because of Adam's sin that image was damaged; so that all human beings are now born with a sinful nature, are unable to function in moral responsibility before holy God, and need spiritual regeneration before they can become what God designed them to be. 2 Timothy 3:16
God leads His church as the Holy Spirit moves in powerful ways in the lives of its individual believers. God has given every believer a capacity to minister His grace to others. We help every Christian to identify their gifts, passion and natural talents; and we encourage their use. The pastors are equippers and models of servant-style leaders. The people are the ministers who function in synergistic teams to carry out the work of Jesus Christ in the church and the world. John 4:24 - Hebrews 13:15 - Psalm 150:6
The gospel is the power of God for salvation to those who believe. We consider it our mission to communicate the good news of Jesus Christ to the entire world beginning with our own local residential communities. We seek to use methods to communicate the unchanging gospel message that fit the cultural context of the hearers. Matthew 28:19 - 1 Corinthians 9:22

History of character has not yet been written.
Powers and Abilities
- This version of Prince Daka, including all history and corresponding appearances, was initially erased from existence following the collapse of the original Multiverse in the 1985–86 Crisis on Infinite Earths limited series. However the ending of Convergence retroactively prevented that collapse, saving all the alternate realities, though in an "evolved" form. Even though versions of the character may have since appeared, this information does not apply to those versions.
- Prince Daka was created for the Batman movie serial. His first appearance in the DC Universe was in Roy Thomas and Arvell Jones's All-Star Squadron #42.

Seven people were arrested in Florida for serving food to the homeless. Members of Tampa Food Not Bombs had been warned by police that they need a permit to serve food to the public in Gaslight Park. The organization says it can't afford to pay for the $1 million worth of insurance it needs to get a permit. A police spokesman reportedly said when the group was caught handing out coffee and bagels in the park over the weekend members were told they would be arrested if they did it again.

The earthquake hit in the early afternoon off the coast of Honshu, Japan's most populous island, triggering unprecedented destruction. Ninety percent of the houses in a score of seaside towns collapsed in seconds. Passenger trains fell off railway bridges and plunged into the sea. A few minutes later, a 35-foot-high tsunami rolled in, sweeping away cars, houses and thousands of people, and burying entire towns in mud. Then came fires, fanned by winds and fueled by flimsy wooden houses, reducing much of what remained to ashes.
The date was Sept. 1, 1923.
The rest—including 145,000 deaths, the burning of more than half of Tokyo, and a "dragon twist (that is, "a freak tornado of fire")—right here.

I have a Verizon Note 3 with a Tmobile SIM/Service, and would like to use the wifi calling/UMA feature that T-Mobile offers. In my office the network coverage is non-existent for all carriers, but there is wifi access. I can get online fine, but can't send a text or make calls. From what I understand Verizon has this feature blocked (or non-existent), Can I flash a T-Mobile ROM to activate this feature, or if I install a developer ROM, will this feature be available?
Thanks for any input!

How far does the Groom-Pro Pet Bath - Grooming Station sit off of the floor?
The measurements are 54"x23"x31". How long are the legs on the Tub? I would like to purchase one but have limited space where I work. I would really appreciate your help, I'm looking for a tub for large dogs so I don't have to pick them up.

England head coach Eddie Jones has brought Nathan Hughes and Marland Yarde into the team for Saturday's Autumn International against Australia at Twickenham.
Just two changes to the personnel that defeated Argentina 27-14 last weekend have been made ahead of the final Test of the campaign.
Hughes will start for the first time at number eight, replacing Billy Vunipola, who will miss the next three months after undergoing knee surgery.
Yarde will feature at right wing against Australia, which means that Jonny May will move over to take Elliot Daly's place in the squad.
"We've had a great week's preparation and we can't wait to get to Twickenham on Saturday with the crowd right behind us," said Jones.
"The great thing about our team is that no-one is irreplaceable. We've had seven influential players missing throughout the autumn but we've been able to fill that gap and that's the sort of team we are developing."
England have won all three of their Autumn Internationals.
England team: 15 Mike Brown, 14 Marland Yarde, 13 Jonathan Joseph, 12 Owen Farrell, 11 Jonny May, 10 George Ford, 9 Ben Youngs; 1 Mako Vunipola, 2 Dylan Hartley (c), 3 Dan Cole, 4 Courtney Lawes, 5 George Kruis, 6 Chris Robshaw, 7 Tom Wood, 8 Nathan Hughes
Replacements: 16 Jamie George, 17 Joe Marler, 18 Kyle Sinckler, 19 Charlie Ewels, 20 Teimana Harrison, 21 Danny Care, 22 Ben Te'o, 23 Henry Slade

Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA Free mobile app
I need to know what would be the best kernel for battery life wise my phone dies every 4-5 hours I'm on CyanogenMod 10.2 running the valuminatti( I know I spelled it wrong) ROM I'm using a FL24 ICS kernel
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA Free mobile app
To diagnose, flash back to stock GB27 or if you want root, flash back to stock rooted GB27.
After that, install all your apps like normal and wait a few days to see it battery life gets any better.
If it doesn't, I assume you have a bad battery. I know from experience. My stock samsung battery died even faster than that on all roms I tried and finally I had to replace it.
Let me know what happens! Good luck!

Russian Icons
Triptych: Deesis cover, Detail
Detail from Triptych: Deesis cover Novgorod A triptych Deesis, such as this one from Novgorod belonging to the collection of the State Russian Museum, was probably used as a traveling iconostasis (a portable icon screen). Because of their small and intimate nature, such icon screens could be used for prayers away from home. The selection of images usually reflected the preferences of the owner. The program of this triptych includes, on the top row, the traditional grouping of the Archangel Michael and John the Baptist flanking a central Christ. Among the saints featured on the bottom tier of the iconostasis are St. Barlaam of Khutyn, founder of the monastery of Chute, and St. Sergei of Radonezh (1321-1392). The Abbot of the monastery which bore his own name, St. Sergei preached a monastic existence of contemplation and strict morals. The presence of these two saints in the iconostasis may be interpreted as a sign of the owner's beliefs and values. The verso of the triptych contains stories related to the Crucifixion. One of the wings illustrates the story of the virtuous thief. It depicts twelve festivals and a number of selected saints. The hierarchical canon governing large iconostases also dictates the cast of this portable screen. The history of Novgorod, one of the oldest Russian towns, spans eleven centuries. Having escaped the Mongol invasion of the early thirteenth century, it became an important center of learning and painting, and spearheaded the cultural revival of the fourteenth century. During this time it preserved the Byzantine traditions that constituted the core of Russian art. The city, though located on the great Russian plain, was linked via deep rivers and lakes to the Black, Baltic, Caspian, and White Seas. Accordingly, Novgorod became one of the greatest trading centers of eastern Europe, supporting commerce which exceeded that of Genoa or Venice. Constantinople had close ties with the city and there were Novgorodian translators and manuscript transcribers living in Constantinople. Artworks from Byzantium, Scandinavia, the Caucasus and Central Asia were brought to the city. Novgorodian painting constitutes a particularly celebrated aspect of old Russian art and Novgorodian icons are highly treasured by institutions fortunate enough to include them in their holdings.

MORGAN HILL, Calif., May 5, 2005 – Fox Riders Company (Fox) today announced the launch of its inaugural line of sunglasses, part of a strategic alliance with Oakley. The Duncan, The Dean and The Wade are new eyewear styles that combine the spirit of Fox with the patented technology and premium craftsmanship of Oakley. In keeping with the exclusive four-year agreement between the two companies, Oakley is responsible for the manufacture, marketing and worldwide distribution of the eyewear inventions.
"Fox always strives to create exciting products that offer the market something new," said Fox Creative Officer Pete Fox. "Oakley is synonymous with quality and performance, and our collaboration has achieved eyewear styles that are as innovative as they are original. We couldn't be more proud to match our icon with three of the most definitive frames you'll see today," Fox concluded.
"Capturing the essence of Fox was no simple task," said Oakley President Colin Baden. "Oakley has earned more than 500 patents for the science behind its diversified range of performance products, but we pride ourselves just as much on the art that conveys these technologies to the public. Fox is renowned in action sports, and these new eyewear inventions had to convey the passion behind the brand. Our design teams came up with true originals that are, most importantly, true to the Fox heritage."
Aggressive styling makes The Duncan a unisex frame of stout dimensions, and O Matter® frame material ensures all-day comfort. Extended frame wrap (the lateral curvature of lenses around the sides of the head) blends the architecture into wide temples that are accented with metal Fox logos. Oakley's Polaric Ellipsoid lens geometry enhances peripheral and downward vision. The Duncan is available in Tortoise with Bronze lens color ($90), Polished Black with Grey lens color ($90), and White with Black Gradient lenses ($100).
The Dean is rendered with wide temples like The Duncan, but the lens shape is narrower along the vertical dimension. The Dean also takes advantage of Polaric Ellipsoid lens geometry for extended peripheral vision. Stress-resistant O Matter frame material maintains comfort, and metal icons with Fox logos accent the unique design. The Dean is available in Polished Black with Grey lens color ($90), Amber with Bronze lens color ($90), Crystal Black with Black Iridium® lenses ($100), and Polished Black with Grey Polarized lenses ($170).
Durable and lightweight C-5® alloy is used to create the semi-rimless architecture of The Wade. Its open-edge design offers an unobstructed field of downward vision. Custom temple tips maintain a comfortable, secure fit. The wrapped and raked-back lens contours extend peripheral and downward view, a benefit of Oakley's Polaric Ellipsoid lens geometry. Fox logos on the temples define a true eyewear original. The Wade is available in Black Chrome with Grey lens color ($120), Olive Chrome with Bronze lens color ($120), Polished Chrome with Black Gradient lenses ($130),and Black Chrome with Grey Polarized lenses ($200).
All three eyewear styles feature various patented XYZ Optics® technologies to maximize visual clarity at all angles of vision while minimizing distortion, even at the lens periphery. Oakley's proprietary, optically pure Plutonite® lens material meets all ANSI Z80.3 requirements for impact protection. Plutonite® also filters out 100% of all UVA, UVB, UVC and harmful blue light.
Fox Eyewear is available globally through motocross, surf, skate and snow retail stores as well as limited sunglass specialty locations operated by Oakley's Iacon subsidiary. More styles are slated for release as part of the ongoing collaboration between Fox and Oakley, including motocross and snowboard goggles.About Fox Riders CompanyHeadquartered in Morgan Hill, CA, with an office in Newport Beach, CA, Fox has been a global leader in performance action sports apparel since 1974.
