Ratchet Brace - QTY:1 - 8FWN1
Sometimes, you don't have power and sometimes, you just want to work with your hands. Either way, there's nothing wrong with going 'old school' from time to time, especially when you know most power tools just aren't as responsive as most hand tools.
The Ratchet Brace is chrome-plated for corrosion resistance and has a four-jaw chuck that accepts round or hex shank bits up to 1/2". The ratchet movement has twelve points and the locking mechanism works in three positions, locked, clockwise and counter-clockwise. Made in England.

Introduction To Chinese Herbology
Medicinal Chinese herbs have been used for
centuries to cure diseases and alleviate discomfort due to many different
disorders. The first herbal classic written in china was published in the Qin Dynasty (221-206 BC) called the Agriculture
Emperors Materia Medica. The first plants discovered and used were usually
for digestive system disorders (i.e. Da Huang
) and slowly as more herbs were discovered the herbs became more useful for
an increasing number of ailments and herbal tonics were created.
Every herb has its own properties which
include its energy, its flavour, its movement and
its related meridians to which it connects too.
The for types of energies are cold, cool, warm and
hot. Usually cold or cool herbs will treat fever, thirst, sore throat and
general heat diseases. Hot or warm herbs will treat cold sensation in the
limbs, cold pain and general cold diseases.
The five flavours or herbs are pungent, sweet,
sour, salty and bitter.
Pungent herbs are generally used to induce perspiration and promote
circulation of both blood and Qi. These herbs are usually used for
superficial disorders. Sweet Herbs have 3 main functions; nourishing
deficiency, harmonizing other herbs or reduce toxicity, relieve pain and
slow the progression of acute diseases. Sour Herbs also have 3 functions;
constrict, obstruct and solidify. These herbs are good to stop
perspiration, stop diarrhea, stop seminal emission and stop leucorrhea.
Salty herbs soften hardness, lubricate intestines and drain downward. These
herbs are used to treat hard stool with constipation or hard swellings as
in diseases like goitre. Bitter herbs induce
bowel movements, reduce fevers and hot sensations,
re direct rebellious Qi, dry dampness and clear heat. They can also nourish
the kidneys and are used to treat damp diseases.
After a herb is absorbed by a patient it can move in 4 different
directions; upward towards the head, downward towards the lower
extremities, inward toward the zang-fu organs or
outward towards the superficial regions of the body. Upward movement herbs
are used for falling symptoms like prolapsed organs. Downward moving herbs
are used to push down up surging symptoms like coughing and vomiting.
Outward moving herbs are used to induce perspiration and treat superficial
symptoms that are moving towards the interior of the body. Inward movement of herbs induce bowel movements and promote
Each herb will have a corresponding meridian or meridians to which it will
correspond to. For example; Jie Geng corresponds to the lungs and can be
used for asthma or cough. Rib pain and sore eyes relate to the liver so as Gou
Teng has an affinity for the liver
meridian it can be used for the treatment of liver diseases.

An Idaho family has found its beloved pet after it was reported kidnapped a month ago. Mabel the bulldog, who was reported stolen Aug. 14, is back in Youngstown after she was found Wednesday in Columbus.
"I was just ecstatic after I found out, I didn't know what to do with myself," said Brook Jillings, Mabel's owner.
Jillings was on the road Thursday from Boise, Idaho, heading to Youngstown to reunite with her dog by this evening.
She credits all the good Samaritans who helped in the search, especially Mary Gump of Youngstown, who is housing Mabel until she arrives.
"I was just another person trying to find Mabel," said Gump, who hired a friend to drive to Columbus to pick up Mabel after she was contacted by Jillings on Wednesday.
The dog is now safe at her West Side home in Youngstown, awaiting her owner.
"I'm not sure how she ended up in Columbus," said Jillings. "But she's the right weight and she's eating. Her skin condition is a little out of control. We can get a handle on that."
Mabel's return began Wednesday, after Jillings was contacted by a woman in Columbus who said she had Mabel for about a week. Jillings said the woman bought Mabel for $500 from a man outside a Kroger grocery store on the west side of Columbus.
The woman contacted Jillings after she saw an advertisement for a missing dog on Craigslist that looked like the one she had purchased. The woman sent several pictures of the dog to Jillings before a local dog warden came and verified the identity of the dog, which had a microchip planted
inside her.
"I knew it was Mabel after I saw the pictures," said Jillings.
Mabel's ordeal began when Brook Jillings, her husband, Paul, and her 2-year-old daughter, Marley, were traveling from Pennsylvania to Washington. On Aug. 14 the family stopped to eat at the Bob Evans restaurant on Belmont Avenue about 4 p.m.
The family said they left Mabel in their minivan and returned 15 minutes later to check on her. They saw someone had broken into their van and Mabel was gone.
A week after Mabel went missing, Paul and Marley returned to Idaho while Brook stayed in Youngstown to search for her. Nearly a month after Mabel went missing, Brook flew back to Idaho on Monday. It took only two days before she received the call that notified her of Mabel's whereabouts. Although she praises the Columbus woman for calling her, she saves most of the credit for the Youngstown people who made her return possible.
"It's incredible to me that everyone came together for a complete stranger," she said. "I know I couldn't have done this on my own."
Jillings said she plans to pay the Columbus woman $1,000 for Mabel's safe return. She said she also is planning an event in Youngstown to celebrate Mabel's safe return.

In the future, leave your pets and valubles at home with other family members or friends while traveling the nation. The job sounds like a young single man's kind of job, not a job for a family man to have, your children will need to have friends and go to school someday, how does that happen? A job change is long past due for you at this point.
Gordy, I vote that you attend Mabel's reunion with her owners, so we can watch her eat you in one bite. You 'sound' like someone who can only work a job under certain conditions, like the public sector. You irrational tool, you.
Glad Mabel will be returned home, show's there are still some Good people left in this world.
Unlike Gordon who thinks he has the answers for all of mankind.
Gordy, you a an idiot! I can not believe that came from what I would have to believe is someone old enough to be an "adult" pure idiot! Congrats to the family for finding their dog. Finally one happy story for youngstown.
YAYYY for Mabel and congrats to her family.
See??? Youngstown still has a LOT of good people!
Gordy probably works for the IRS......a heartless, inept fool to put it nicely !!!!!!
Ailierdroit .........your an ass making an unsolicited comment such as ( You 'sound' like someone who can only work a job under certain conditions, like the public sector)
Only a low life POS would steal someone's dog. I know the culprit will never be found but what goes around...
Thank God for good samaritans. They're still alive and breathing. Welcome home Mabel.
Congrats to the Jillings family for never giving up on finding their beloved pet. And yes, Youngstown does have good people!
Gordy, to some pets are family. So when it's about a family vacation, guess what? The pet comes too. I applaud them for not leaving their best friend at home.
When I read about this yesterday it made my week. It is good to see that Youngstown is getting some good press, AND yes there are some GREAT people here. Now that Mabel has been found lets put the heat on the POS that stole Adam and Eve from their owners home in New Castle.
And Gordy have you been living under a rock the last several years? Jobs are hard to find and good paying one are even harder. The man is making a living and providing for his family who are you to judge?
Happy for all involved....
Do agree... that the story for how she was found in Columbus is weak...
Would love to find the person that took mabel...
Who takes someones pet???
Scares me. When I travel with my rather large dog. He's in a crate in the bed of my pick up.
When I first read the story, I wondered who buys a dog in the Kroger parking lot for $500. Someone please tell me how this is different from buying a hot TV; it used to be called "receiving stolen property". But, I'm glad the dog is going back to the rightful owner.
A happy ending...keep a better watch on your pet in the future.
I'm glad they got their dog back, but the whole story sounds fishy. She bought the dog at a grocery store? And no one seems concerned with the fact that they left their dog in a van on a hot August day.Nothing upsets me more than to see a dog left in a car on a hot day while their owner shops or eats at a restaurant. They seem to really love their pet tho and I hope they learned their lesson and NEVER do that again!
Rocco, I have to agree that something is strange about the woman buying a dog for $500 at a store. I donated to the reward money and don't think it's the owners that are fishy, but could be fishy about the person getting reward money. The other part I was wondering about was that she is giving $1,000 to the woman who found Mable, but I read long ago that the reward fund was up to $3,500. Where is the rest of the money going?
The $3,500 reward was offered by an outsider, not by the family or the rescue (Canine Crusaders) who helped with the search. I guess it would be up to that private donor to decide whether or not to honor their offer.
Another issue -- the temperature on that August day was unseasonably cool during and after the rain storm. I believe it was just under 70 degrees.
After meeting the family and hearing their stories and looking at their photos, it's clear that Mabel is a part of their family ...and no, they will never leave her unattended again.
Buying a dog in a parking lot from a stranger reminds me of single men selling watches in downtown Youngstown a few years ago. Wanna buy a watch? They would flash 3 watches on each wrist and offer a very low price. If you don't trust the guy selling watches, why would you trust the person selling a dog for $500 in a parking lot...and with no papers?
I am glad they got the dog back, in fact they are very lucky they did get her back. Contrary to some other comments , I don't live under a rock and I do have a heart.
Hmm, you're right, I'm sorry. I shouldn't include our safety forces (police and fire) because they have no control over their working conditions and are most valued by its citizens.
But for everyone else whose salary I help pay, I stand by my word. Yay Mabel!
ailierdroit wrote: "...someone who can only work a job under certain conditions, like the public sector."
Glad they got her back, but that story reeks like month old tuna salad. Since Mabel is her proper weight and has a healthy appetite, it might be best to revert to a don't ask don't tell policy. Personally, I think it warrants as much scrutiny as it would get if it was the minivan that was stolen and later recovered from someone who bought it in a Kroger's parking lot with no papers.
So very happy that Mabel was "found." I'm also happy her captors obviously took care of her during her absence from her owners. Personally, I would be looking to see if the Columbus woman who bought Mabel has a criminal record and/or any ties to the Youngstown area. Of course I'm cynical due to the nature of the woman's purchase. However, this did move me to have my own previous "pound-dog" micro-chipped, a cost of $40 total at Angels for Animals. We have great people living in Youngstown but it's not us that gets the most press. :/

Another look behind the scenes of QUANTUM OF SOLACE!!!
Hey folks, Harry here... I like these "Behind the Scenes" features that MGM has been giving us with QUANTUM OF SOLACE... not so much trailers as they are teasers that show us a glimpse of where in the world they're shooting, the look and feel of the James Bond universe - and I have to say... it's working, at least on me. That one overhead shot of the location in Panama feels otherworldly... and the idea of an old school prop plane dogfight... that's exhilarating. I love Bond going retro. Well... here... you take a look for yourself...

by 23GreatWoundsAllGotInBattle
The opening scene of Casino Royale was the best thing in a Bond movie in the last ten years. The rest...eh, not so much. I absolutely hated the scene where he sucked on the chick's fingers in the shower. That was so fuckin' creepy and not Bond-like at all. My interest in Bond kinda peaked with Goldeneye. I went back and watched all the old ones (Moore..blech!), read all the paperbacks, and then the one with Michelle Yeoh came out and it pretty much sucked. Series has been downhill since. I gotta see more of this upcoming one.

Worst Grammar Ever
by Frijole
So this is all y'all got? Just a bunch of random, knee-jerk fanboy rantings? Safely anonymous hatings on a project, any project, just cause? This gets you off, does it? I'm so thrilled to be a part of such an important internet fan-based chat site where we can exchange bon mots about our favorite projects. You know... I'm all for the random dissenting opinion, but this hating for hating's sake is retarded. Keep talking your shit... you know as well as we that you'll be there opening day. In the mean time, keep your sad little 4-inch chubbies in check, cause you know this shit talk gets you off when you tell all your other "cooler-than-thou" buddies all about how you "totally slagged the new Bond movie on a fan-based website." Sigh. I'd recommend a hobby, but it sounds as if your local chapter of Magic the Gathering is sick of your shit already. The Bond franchise has been totally re-invigorated, re-imagined, given a whole new supply of plasma to the bloodstream, and kicks major ass upon anything since Connery first lit a cigarette and said, bored, "Bond... James Bond." And if you don't understand why it does than I'm not going to waste the time to eludicate to your narrow-minded viewpoint. To those of you who are in support of this continuing project: I don't think any true thanks is in order from the likes of me... you reward yourselves by enjoying this effort. And Trick_Ster... go back to school and actually stay awake during your 4th grade grammar class.

And naturally you'd prefer a ridiculously simplistic title like Casino Royale 2..? The title is excellent but you're not quite cultured enough to recognize that. In terms of the short story it is based on and the theme of the movie having Bond hell bent on systematically destroying the organization that killed his love; "Quantum of Solace" is perfect. It's because of the likes of you who simply can't understand the English Language beyond Phat, Dope, Bitches and Ho's, that they consider most Americans to be too stupid to understand titles of movies they've had to market under simplified new name like: Harry Potter and the "Sorcerers" Stone instead of "Philosophers" (yes they reckoned not enough of you Yanks understand what that means! Or License "To Kill" instead of License "Revoked" which was the original Bond film title and got changed to the complete opposite just because they didn't think anyone in the US knew what "Revoked" ment! Thus so many US films have unimaginative, basic titles with a number stuffed at the end just to make counting the series easy for them like being in kindergarten. Hopefully this excellent title will not go through that route and remain as it is despite the simpletons and halfwits of the world with popcorn for brains.

Adding to the "Pants" discussion, and therefore throwing this Bond talkback off on even more of a tangent, as well as the North of England I think it's been a term for something that's not very good all over the UK (certainly here in Wales) since I was a kid, so at least 15 years. So "Daniel Craig's Face is Pants!" is an insult, not a compliment.

In British English pants only ever means 'underpants'. In recent years it's often been used as a term of mild abuse, eg 'National Treasure: Book of Secrets is pants'. Clearly, Daniel Craig's face isn't pants. Tom Cruise's acting is.

Yet another reason why I'd rather put in a DVD than watch a TV drama. Alias would show "Cairo", then a stock-footage establishing shot, then suddenly you're in a temporarily de-touristed EPCOT showcase. Or when X-Files showed what was ostensibly a forest in the FL panhandle, and we had a curious number of evergreen trees everywhere that screamed ACTUALLY VANCOUVER. Shoot on site!

If ya'll refuse to cover this, at least explain how this is not cool news. </p> Here is John Carter news from ERBzine. </p> [Pixar Plans for John Carter of Mars Jim Hill Media ~ March 17, 2008 Pixar Animation Studios may be preparing its first live-action movie: Edgar Rice Burroughs' John Carter of Mars and Wall-E director Andrew Stanton may direct, sources are claiming. Disney/Pixar grabbed up a raft of domain names last Friday, including johncarterandthegodsofmars.com , johncarterandthewarlordofmars. com, godsofmarsmovie.com and warlordofmars-movie.com. Last August, Disney registered johncarterofmars-movie.com and some variants, plus childrenofmars.com in November. "Insiders" claim Ratatouille screenwriter Mark Andrews has completed his first draft of a John Carter script. And both Disney and Pixar insiders are excited by the draft, and eager to put it into production. The movie could come out as soon as 2011 or 2012. Part of the urgency for a John Carter franchise comes from the fact that Disney is losing enthusiasm for the Narnia movies.

CeejayNightwing pt. 2
by Bill Brasky
Yeah, and I guess that "No Country for Old Men" was one of those stupid 'Yank' movies that you hated because it was just so amateurish and moronic. The simpletons and halfwits of the world with popcorn for brains have spoken and here's what they say: REVOKE: (Revoked) as in, Great Britain's status as a world power has been REVOKED. Now, they must resort to squabbling over a few rocky islands half a world away just to ensure themselves that 'the sun never sets on the British Empire,' and following an American preisdent around the world like a little lost puppy. Gosh Ceejay, for a country full of idiots who can't seem to fathom any films unless they have numbers at the end, your nation sure does emulate us! The sad thing is, I actually started to agree with what you were talking about until you started to flame my nation of origin. Who the fuck cares, really? Stay over there in your little cesspool of an island, with your bad teeth and your high taxes. Enjoy your self-described high-brow nature and continue to write long and completely uninteresting titles for books and movies. I'm glad that I was born where I was born. Are you?
Here's to Bill Brasky!!!

Us queers have been producing Bond for years what's the problem?

If you want Bond made by straight people go rent XXX and then come and tell me you don't want us making your movies better. We could be doing the Oz sequels you know instead of wasting our time with a one trick character.

by DC Films
Wow, some of you are very sensitive about this. To be honest i thought that CeejayNightwing wasn't implying that Americans are dumb, but that Hollywood studios assume that Americans are dumb. He's saying that the Studios underestimate their countrymen incredibly with these patronizing dumbed-down name changes. I agree with him - you should be pissed at the studios, rather than someone for pointing this out! And it ain't just you guys that are getting the 'nanny-treatment' - i was annoyed at 'Live Free Or Die Hard' being released here as Die Hard 4.0, as though the studio thinks we Brits are too dumb to work out that LFODH is a Die Hard movie. As it turned out DH4 was pretty dumb, so i guess the Brit title was a better fit after all.

The film industry believes most people ARE dumb, and the ones who arent dumb are ripping them off by downloading movies. Another example is Harry Potter & the Philosophers Stone (book & movie) being renamed 'Sorcerer' because we Americans have no fucking idea what a Philosopher is. s'My take.

Gemma is the new Carey Lowell.
by riskebiz
Something lackluster about the females in this. They seem very pedestrian as actresses. I know, there isn't much to see her other than a line or reaction or two ... but they seem very Carey Lowell/Talisa Soto'esque. A bit of step down from Eva Green's on screen presence.

Yes, I AM serious. I LOVED Die Another Day. I saw it four times in the theaters. I've only seen Casino Royale once...As I sauntered out of the theater, I was trying to digest what I had seen. It was another damn Jason Bourne flick. Too realistic. James Bond is NOT supposed to realistic. We need villains like Blofeld attempting to take over the world, wacky gadgets and TONS of special effects. BTW, I enjoyed OHMSS, too.

by FlyinHawaiian30
When I asked yesterday what the slang "pants" meant in that context, I asked only because I was unfamiliar with the colloquialism, not that I don't understand English, or at least American English. Of course, I wouldn't expect all English-speaking peoples to understand every bit of slang used in this area of the country and I certainly wouldn't accuse any of you of being ignorant for not knowing. So therefore, sheesh and suck haole-boy!

OHMSS and FRWL shit all over Casino Royale
by Prossor
Casino Royale isn't fit to lick the shit from OHMSS/FRWL's shoes, they are classics. Casino Royale is a convolutaed schizoid trying to be everything to all movie fans and ending up a clusterfuck. I agree with Bond movies not being realistic, Casino Royale was the pits, Bond movies are supposed to be FUN, you want realism go watch a documentary on the CIA/MI6 and enjoy that. they're fucking FANTASY the way Fleming intended them, chug liquor, smoke like a chimney, fuck women, and beat the shit ouf of crazy assholes while trading witty remarks with one another, not some guy with an imploding face and sucking on lemons in post-modernistic slick-hollywoodized bourne/bauer-flavored twaddle screeching out "I DONT GIVE A DAMN" (the teen crowd got a kick out of that i'm sure) and peeling-back-the-layers nauseum like "my armor is all gone you've stripped it from me" "whatever i am, i'm yours", did George Lucas help write these?

Is there some sort of mod who can tidy up when people start insulting/making generalisations about entire countries? I hate that crap. Regarding Quantum Of Solace, I bow to no man in my complete nerd appreciation for all things James Bond...but Eon are so far up their own arse now it's almost vomit inducing. You'd think casino Royale was Chinatown or something. The fun of Bond has been lost.

UN emergency summit over Syria
May 27 2012
Syria has strongly denied UN allegations that its forces killed more than 90 people in one of the deadliest events of the country's uprising, and diplomats said the Security Council met in an emergency session to discuss the massacre.
The killings in the west-central area of Houla on Friday brought widespread international criticism of the regime of President Bashar Assad, although differences emerged from world powers over whether his forces were exclusively to blame.
Britain and France had proposed issuing a press statement condemning the massacre, but Russia told UN Security Council members it could not agree and wanted a briefing first by Norwegian Major General Robert Mood, the head of the UN observer team inside the country.
Russia has been Syria's most powerful ally during the uprising, and along with China has used its veto power to shield Damascus from UN sanctions.
The massacre in Houla on Friday cast fresh doubts on the ability of an international peace plan put forward by envoy Kofi Annan to end Syria's 14-month-old crisis.
The brutality of the killings became clear in amateur videos posted online that showed scores of bodies, many of them young children, in neat rows and covered with blood and deep wounds. A later video showed the bodies, wrapped in white sheets, being placed in a sprawling mass grave.

The international School in Shanghai, China joined Scuba Cat again this June to continue their 5 year study of the reefs on Racha Yai Island.
With their co-ordinator Terry and team of instructors, 10 students from the school came to Thailand and boarded MV Scuba Cat for 9 days of intensive training and surveying.
After watching the movie Shark Water, we knew we had to do something to educate the local people of Costa Rica. Make them aware that shark finning is not cool!
Following the success of their Fantastic Fish art contest last year, Camel Dive Club decided to hold a Colouring Competition for this year's World Ocean Day.
World Oceans Day has been celebrated globally every June 8 since its original proposal in 1992 by Canada at the Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro.
World Oceans Day is an opportunity every year to honour the world's ocean, celebrate the products the ocean provides such as seafood as well as marine life itself for aquariums, pets, and also a time to appreciate its own intrinsic value.
Here on Koh Tao we are surrounded by beautiful coral reefs that are intrinsic to all the activities that take place on this small island. We at Eco Koh Tao and Crystal Dive took this opportunity to remind people about this important symbiosis by organizing an afternoon of eco activities.
What a fantastic dive we all had last week, raising some funds for Project AWARE whilst night diving.
The sea temp was reasonable, and the vizability was outstanding. Please check out the photos headed Project AWARE Night Dive May 2011, the eels featured there is the first one any of us have seen at this particular dive site, and what stunning creatures they are.
We run at least two night dives a year for Project AWARE, and always conduct a clean-up on the national clean-up day, and at least one more clean-up a year in addition.
Tokoriki's Earth Day Clean up, which due to various circumstances was delayed until the end of May, was a beach clean of Monuriki Island, with Yanuya Island school kids to assist. Lots of fun was had by all and less rubbish than usual was collected which was great to see.
75 volunteers from Crystal Dive Resort, Ban's, Big Blue, Master Divers and New Heaven on the island of Koh Tao, Thailand joined forces on Dive For Earth Day helping to remove over 335kg of rubbish, mostly nets and ropes.
Many more volunteers helped on land. Continuing the celebrations into the evening, Chad Scott, Jen Matthews and Eco Koh Tao's Nathan Cook conducted a marine ecology and reef restoration talk before the attention turned to some great locally made films raising awareness at this important time for our planet.
Ban's Diving Resort on Koh Tao, Thailand has been encouraging their customers to sign the Give Sharks A Fighting Chance petition since the petition was launched last year but they wanted to do more.

A Gay Centurion
The short answer is that scripture is important and what we believe, based on scripture, is important. For centuries, the organized church has insisted gay people are never presented in the Bible in a positive light.
Many Christians refuse to believe that God would include a positive story about a gay Centurion in the Bible. In recent centuries, many openly gay Christians have been excluded from the spiritual life of the church.
Our goal is to examine the available evidence. If the evidence and a faithful, believing approach to scripture supports the understanding that this story is about a gay centurion and his pais-same sex lover, that dramatic fact should be public knowledge.
The Roman marriage ban lasted until AD 197, when Septimius Severus ended it. This ban may have encouraged same sex relationships in the first century Roman Army.
Those who believe that the Centurion's pais was only a servant and not the same sex partner of the homosexual Centurion, cite Greek lexicons to prove their case. Since most Biblical Greek lexicons do not mention beloved or same sex lover as possible meanings of pais most nongay Christians insist same sex lover could not possibly be the meaning of pais.
Is there cultural, historical and linguistic evidence which indicates that beloved or same sex lover is the probable meaning of pais in Matthew and Luke's story of the centurion?
Pais conveyed the idiomatic meaning of same sex lover. The idiomatic meaning of words derives from the way a particular culture uses a word. First century Greek and Roman culture often used the word pais with the meaning of "same sex lover."
Idiom refers to a way of using words that is natural to native speakers of a language but which does not convey the literal meaning of the words. An idiomatic expression uses a word in a way different than its literal meaning, such as using the word for servant to mean something more than servant, like same sex lover. Servant is a literal meaning. Same sex lover is the idiomatic meaning. For example:
Just so, the Greek word pais carried an idiomatic meaning for native Greek speakers for many centuries prior to Matthew writing his Gospel. The well-known, widely recognized idiomatic meaning of pais was "beloved or same sex lover."
That Matthew and Luke possibly used pais with the meaning of same sex lover raises the interesting possibility that Jesus met and blessed a gay centurion who was honest enough to tell Jesus he was gay.
Remember, in our story, the Centurion uses the word pais to describe his sick "servant." He is an utterly honest man and refuses to insult Jesus by asking for healing under false pretences. The gay Centurion openly admits to Jesus that he is a gay Centurion by using the Greek word pais to describe his servant.
What if you were in Jesus' place and the gay Centurion came to you, asking healing for his pais-beloved-partner?
Would you get in his face and tell him "You're going to roast in hell like a marshmallow if you don't stop being gay?"
Would you tell him "Sure I'll heal your partner if both of you promise to join Exodus International and become Ex-Gay"?
Or would you do like Jesus did and simply heal the beloved partner of the gay Centurion and affirm his remarkable faith in God?
Eupolis, a playwright, 446-411 BC, references Agathon, an exceptionally good-looking man who, in his late teens, was the paidika or pais of Pausanias. Their same sex relationship continued to flourish when Agathon was in his thirties.
Aeschines, 390-314 BC, Athenian poet, in Against Timarchos, charged rival politician Timarchos with having lived off his relationships with older men. In such relationships, the older man was called the erastes or the lover, and the younger man was called the eromenos or paidika or pais, the boyfriend. Paidika is derived from pais.
"If a state or an army could be formed only of lovers and their beloved, how could any company hope for greater things than these, despising infamy and rivaling each other in honor? Even a few of them, fighting side by side, might well conquer the world." And again, "Love will make men dare to die for their beloved - love alone."
Callimanchus, 305-240 BC, Greek poet and Chief Librarian of the famed Alexandrian library, wrote about the pais as same sex lover in his literature.
Ancient Alexandria, Egypt was a cosmopolitan city of Jews, Egyptians, Greeks and Romans, a prosperous trade center for East and West. Its library encouraged the mingling of different cultures and spiritual traditions. For a time Alexandria was the greatest center of learning in the ancient world.
Alexandria was also the center of pagan mysticism and the birthplace of the most celebrated schools of gnosticism. The Alexandrian library was the most famous library of the ancient world. It was part of a complex called the Alexandrian Museum or Temple of the Muses. The library and museum were founded in the 3rd century BC and maintained by a long succession of Ptolemies, rulers of ancient Egypt.
An auxiliary library was established about 235 BC in the Serapeum, a temple dedicated to the god Serapis. The Alexandrian library systematically collected the knowledge of the ancient world and at its peak is estimated to have held 400,000 to 700,000 scrolls and papyri. In AD 272 the Alexandrian museum and main library were destroyed in the civil war under the Roman emperor Aurelian.
[The] "Sacred Band of three hundred chosen men... composed of young men attached to each other by personal affection... a band cemented by friendship grounded upon love is never to be broken, and invincible; since the lovers, ashamed to be base in sight of their beloved, and the beloved before their lovers, willingly rush into danger for the relief of one another."
Why does this factual information surprise so many modern Christians?
In ancient Greece, the word pais was widely used and understood as referring to someone in a same sex relationship. It was not unusual for Roman Centurions and Roman soldiers to have male servants with whom they had a sexual relationship.
Remember that Roman Law prohibited heterosexual marriage for serving Roman soldiers in the first century AD. From an historical perspective, a gay Centurion or a Centurion in a same sex relationship is not an unusual thing.
Remember too that the Bible deals with the culture as it finds it. In the first century, referring to a Centurion's servant as his pais was like saying:
Those words, either in the Greek idiom of the first century or the American idiom of the twenty first century, convey information about one's sexual orientation.
We conclude that God can and does bless loving homosexual relationships like the one between a gay Centurion and his pais-beloved, as long as those relationships are within the Biblical moral framework - committed, faithful, noncultic.

On Sunday, 19 firefighters were killed while fighting a massive wildfire at Yarnell Hill in the Phoenix area, the deadliest wild land fire since 1933 and deadliest day for firefighters since Sept. 11, 2001.
The firefighters were part of an elite hotshot crew trained in battling fires like this. Hotshot crews are usually comprised of 20 specialists who go in and dig the fire lines, cutting the brush to make a fuel break.
The crews get as close to a fire as they safely can, but unpredictable shifting winds can present real risks. Investigators say winds, combined with a 10-year drought and dry, thick brush helped the blaze spread rapidly, leaving the crew to turn to a last resort of a fire-retardant tent. Unfortunately, it wasn't enough.
FOX 9 News spoke with Nyle Zikmund, fire chief for Spring Lake Park, Blaine and Mounds View, about what it takes to be a member of a hotshot crew and how Minnesota firefighters are trained.

Bible Pathways - July 20, 2007
In Today's Scripture Reading:
Fear of God is the beginning of wisdom; necessity of searching for wisdom; importance of trusting in the Lord
Solomon, along with approximately 40 other writers of the Bible, was inspired of God to record exactly what God wanted us to know in order to be the person He created us to become. Consequently, we read: Receive My (God's) words, and hide (treasure) My Commandments with thee; So that thou incline thine ear unto wisdom, and apply thine heart to understanding; Yea, if thou criest (seek) after knowledge, and liftest up thy voice for understanding; If thou seekest her as silver, and searchest for her as for hid treasures; Then shalt thou understand the fear of the Lord, and find the knowledge of God (Proverbs 2:1-5).
Speaking through Solomon, God is saying: "Take My Word seriously." It alone can provide you with true wisdom that will guide you to understand righteousness, and judgment, and equity; yea, every good path. When wisdom entereth into thine heart, and knowledge is pleasant unto thy soul; Discretion shall preserve thee, understanding shall keep thee (2:9-11).
Despite the Lord's urging, some people spend little, or no, time reading the Bible, even though the Apostle Paul said: Study (Be diligent) to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the Word of Truth (II Timothy 2:15). Only a few ever pray for spiritual achievements so they may accomplish the purpose for which God created them. Discerning Christians will put their personal goals in harmony with God's purposes and seek ye first the Kingdom of God, and His righteousness (Matthew 6:33) while making all secular goals secondary. For our conversation (citizenship) is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ (Philippians 3:20).
The choice of whom we will serve is of utmost importance, for it affects everything else in life. With the same intense energy by which worldly success is pursued by many, Christians should seek achievements of eternal value for the good of others and the glory of God.
One of life's most sobering thoughts is that the Son of Man shall come in the glory of His Father with His angels; and then He shall reward every man according to his works (deeds) (Matthew 16:27).
Christ Revealed:
As the Creator who founded the earth . . . He established the heavens (Proverbs 3:19). All things were created by Him, and for Him (Colossians 1:16; Ephesians 3:9; Hebrews 1:2-3).
Word Studies:
1:4 give subtilty to the simple => impart insight (prudence) to the teachable; 1:11 lurk privily => wait secretly; 1:28 early => diligently; 2:1 hide . . . with thee => receive and treasure in your heart; 2:7 buckler => a shield used in hand-to-hand combat; 2:12 froward => opposed to God; 2:16 strange woman => adulteress; 3:26 thy foot from being taken => your life from all danger.
Prayer Needs:
Pray for The English International Shortwave Radio Broadcast in memory of Letha Hash Staff: Pam Pendergrast Government Officials: Sen. Larry Craig (ID) and Sen. Barbara Mikulski (MD) Country: Bhutan (2 million) in the eastern Himalayas of central Asia Major languages: Tibetan and Nepalese dialects Public worship, evangelism, and proselytization are illegal 50-70% Buddhist; 24-45% Hindu; 5% Muslim; <1% Protestant/Roman Catholic Prayer Suggestion: Draw near to God in prayer with a clean and pure heart (James 4:8).

Kill The Drill, Not The Bill
Some call the U.S. Senate "the place good ideas go to die." Those of us that live and breathe energy policy have already witnessed the death of the climate bill this year. Now, we are sitting at the bedside of the Senate's oil spill response bill. And in spite of what the President called the worst environmental disaster in US history, the "Spill Bill" is on life support as Congress winds to a close.
In the wake of BP's unparalleled Gulf of Mexico disaster some lawmakers recognized the urgent need to overhaul offshore drilling regulations. In July, the House of Representatives passed a bill to tighten safety requirements and make companies pay for damages. Since then, all eyes have been on the Senate to reciprocate. Yet seven months after the blowout, with just a few weeks left in this Congress, we are still waiting.
There is no shortage of facts about the perils of offshore drilling. At a recent government hearing, experts described standard safety tests using words like "imperfect," "subjective," and "anything but clear." Many steps in the drilling process provide opportunities for human and technical error, and some cannot be identified until it is too late. Oceana has called for a ban on offshore drilling; at the very least, safety regulations and oversight of existing drilling operations must be strengthened, and this bill would do just that.
We can't afford another mistake. We know how difficult and expensive it is to clean toxic crude oil from our oceans, beaches, marshes and wildlife, and we've seen the human tragedies: the loss of life and the loss of livelihoods for those who make their living in the fishing and tourism industries. To this day, crews continue to sift tar balls from the sand of Gulf beaches, and reports continue to roll in about the impacts on Gulf seafood. Yet existing law would allow companies to walk away from damages that exceed $75 million per spill, a paltry amount for the richest oil companies. Oil companies should be financially responsible for 100 percent of the destruction they cause, and the suffering Senate bill would make that so.
Remember how there was no way to fight against the torrent of oil billowing up from the seafloor? They tried in-situ burns, "top kills," "junk shots," toxic dispersants -- but none of these methods could stem the flow. Then there was the trusty underwater nuclear explosion idea, which we can hope will never resurface.
As long as we continue to drill offshore, oil will contaminate valuable marine resources. The singular foolproof method of oil spill prevention is a ban on offshore drilling. However, at the very least, the US Senate must pass legislation to respond to the biggest environmental disaster our country has ever seen, and time is running out. Tell your Senators not to let this good idea die. We need to pass the Spill Bill, stat.

I think you should require the parents to take a turn helping you. Maybe then their expectations would be a bit more realisticThis. Various things like MOPS and mom's morning out etc require the mom/parent to volunteer one day over the semester, for this very reason. (well, it also helps keep costs down).

Gabriel and Nathaniel
We found out we were expecting in October 2003. Happy and excited, we were slightly anxious due to a previous miscarriage that had taken place in March of that year.
The first appointment went well. My midwife tried finding the heartbeat with a doppler and couldn't. Of course this left me feeling scared and unsure of what was going on, mostly concerned that another miscarriage was in my future! The midwife saw this and immediately got a portable ultrasound machine to check things out. After a little while of looking around–my baby's gestational age was only nine weeks– she finally saw the baby. It was beautiful and moving around like crazy, so I finally left the appointment, reassured that things were going as they should be.
My first official ultrasound was scheduled at 12 weeks, and just happened to fall on the 23rd of December. My husband naturally came along with me for this. There was the technician "doing her thing," looking around and then she said, "Did they say anything about this pregnancy being abnormal?"
Of course that put my husband and I into a state of panic! I answered, "No, why? Is something wrong?"
Her response came with a smile on her face: "Oh no, there's just two babies in there!"
I almost fell off the table in shock. My husband's mouth gaped open, then he said, "Are you serious?"
The technician looked at him and said, "Oh yes I'm sure, and that's one thing I don't kid about…twins!" She continued to do the scan, and both babies were doing wonderfully and appeared totally healthy. We left that appointment with so many emotions running through our heads! Happiness, excitement, shock, worry, and several more I can't even begin to describe!
We were immediately turned over to an OB instead of a midwife due to the pregnancy now being a twin pregnancy.
Things progressed perfectly. Since this was my seventh pregnancy–we already have five other kiddos at home–I thought I knew what to expect, but I was wrong. It was the best pregnancy I've ever had, even if I did get totally HUGE! Nothing abnormal happened and the babies continued to thrive. I had ultrasounds every four weeks and OB appointments on a regular basis with short scans taking place during those appointments as well.
Right before Valentine's Day, we found out that we were going to have two boys, which was just wonderful, especially as we already had four girls and one boy. My son said, "It's about time we even up the odds around here!" We were living in our bliss of expecting not only one baby boy, but two!
My due date was July 9th, 2004, but my doctor told me to expect to deliver early due to this being a twin pregnancy. So at 36 weeks I went in for my regular appointment and they did the short scan once again. The babies were in breech presentation and I was dilated to 2, almost 3 cm. My doctor seemed a little concerned, and told me to give it a few more days in the hope that the boys would turn again. Of course he said he didn't expect that, but was still hopeful. So that's what we did; we went home and hoped for the best.
Four days later I came back for another appointment. Yep, the babies were still breech and by then I was 4 cm. dilated. Immediately my doctor escorted my husband and I up to Labor & Delivery for a C-section. Due to the position of the babies and my dilation, he didn't want to take a chance of cord prolapse or my water breaking since I was dilated so far along. By then I was at 36 weeks, four days.
So Gabriel entered this world on June 15, 2004 at 11:53 a.m., weighing in at six pounds, four ounces, and measuring twenty inches long. His brother, Nathaniel, came a minute later at 11:54 a.m., weighing in at six pounds, five ounces, and measuring twenty inches long. Both boys were absolutely perfect! They spent no time in the NICU, roomed in with me for our whole hospital stay and came home with me three days later. It was perfect and they were healthy and happy. I couldn't have asked for more, we are so truly blessed.
So now our family of seven has grown to a family of nine, and we couldn't be happier with our newest additions to the clan!
