This is just a short
Redharvest does a voice cameo as the main villain
This is almost like a demo for what I want my Omega series to be with updated drawings and better animation. I really liked how it turned out.
Rated 3 / 5 stars October 6, 2010
It has potential.
I saw your post in the animation forum and figured that I would give you my advice. Keep in mind that I'm a critical reviewer by nature so I have mostly constructive criticism to give, but the flash is actually pretty good. I'm just here to (hopefully) help you make it better.
First and foremost, color schemes. They're vital in art, but they're also vital in animation (after all, animation is just moving art). You want to have dominant colors, you want to have your colors complement each other, you want to shy away from over-saturation, etc. If you're not sure what I mean, I suggest looking into color theory tutorials. They've helped me a lot.
Speaking of that, I noticed that you used a number of gradients to represent your shading. This is generally not flattering because gradients don't express the form of the object and they also lack the amount of color diversity that you need to make something look full and realistic. You can get away with them sometimes, but they have to be subtle and it's beneficial to have additional shading on top of them.
Another artistic tip is to avoid pure white. It's a harsh color, especially when you use it for large and prominent objects like the boat. It immediately draws the eye away from what's actually happening and it's also a flat color. Pure black as well, though you didn't have much of that here. Use light, subtly-tinted (depending on your color scheme) grays instead.
I wasn't fond of the blur effects that you used. On the clouds, I feel like you should portray their form through drawn details instead. On your background effects, I feel like you've used too heavy of a blur.
The animation itself felt stiff to me. I figure that this is the fault of using symbol animation which almost without fail doesn't look good on complex figures. Frame by frame is more tedious and runs the risk of volume problems, but once you get good at it, it's a much more realistic representation of movement.
You have a lot of little lines within your character forms that represent musculature and wrinkles in clothing that I feel don't help you any. Those types of details are better defined by shading. It's also okay to use simple figures. If you have to chose between complexity and realistic movement, although it's good to have both, the later is the one you should prioritize.
I'll note that the sound effects and the music didn't have the greatest sound quality. The voice acting could also use some work.
My last comment is on the story itself. I know that this is only the beginning, but there's nothing that really sticks out in my mind about it. Starting your series with an extended fight scene is a good way of portraying the characters' physical strengths, but it has the nasty side effect of losing viewer interest due to how there's nothing particularly unique about it and how you haven't developed your characters much. Beginning with an intriguing plot setup is what will generally entice your viewer to come back for the rest of the series much more so than a fight scene with no character development or plot setup.
Thanks for the constructive criticism you really took alot of time to explain the faults I'm really grateful for that
everything was very helpful and as far as lighting and coloring goes I am clueless I'll take a look at thoughs tutorials and try to figure something it
I know symbol animation can be faulty and limited so Ive recently switched over to FBF and its looking really good just takes alot more work but its worth it.
really thank you for taking the time to review this , its very helpful! :)
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars October 6, 2010
wow, this IS good
I don't know why you were so self-conscious in that one thread but this is superb! A decent storyline at that too.
hey thanks!
Idk just am :p thanks for the support im glad you liked it :)
Rated 5 / 5 stars September 21, 2010
even though i noticed that the figures were of different symbols the movements were smooth
thats how i animate i put a bunch of body parts together i hope some parts didnt seem like they were broken off oops
Rated 3.5 / 5 stars September 9, 2010
Much improved!
much better animation. Looking good
Good art good sound and voices. 7/10 is about as high as I go for a stereotype action/unexplained unfinished thingy. If this quality of material went into a proper story with character, and a start-to-finish storyline I would give it at least 8/10.
I look forward to writing that WikiG page.
Thanks man
Yeah next one I'm gonna try to do a long one with a story that goes from A to B
I hope to get that page on wikigrounds soon thatd be sweet

Each spring the College of Arts and Sciences organizes an annual one-day conference to celebrate the research, artistic, and creative work of its undergraduate and graduate students. It is a great way for students to present the results of their hard work and show their knowledge outside of the classroom.

Sen. Marco Rubio Sponsors Bill to Block Obama Contraception Mandate
As tension mounts over the Obama administration's ill-advised mandate requiring religious employers to include free contraception in their insurance coverage, one lawmaker is pushing back against the White House with a legislative countermove.
Facing Pro-Life Pressure, Komen Cancer Fund Cuts Ties to Planned Parenthood
Following months of high-profile pressure by pro-life groups concerned over its ties to the abortion industry, Susan G. Komen for the Cure, one of the nation's largest breast cancer charities, announced that it was halting its long-time funding of Planned Parenthood, the nation's leading abortion provider. As reported by the New York Times, the long-anticipated move will cut funding to 19 of Planned Parenthood's 83 franchises, which have received money from Komen since 2005.
Catholic Bishops Call for Righteous Defiance Over Obama Mandate
A battle appears to be brewing between the Obama administration and the Catholic Church over the President's insistence that religious employers provide free contraception coverage in their insurance plans. As reported January 23 in The New American, the White House announced "that under its 2010 ObamaCare medical legislation employers will be compelled to cover birth control for women free of charge, including controversial contraceptive drugs which can induce abortion early in a woman's pregnancy. The administration rejected an appeal from religious organizations, led by the Catholic Church, for an exemption on insurance provided to employees of religious institutions such as hospitals, colleges, and charities."
Starbucks Officially Supports "Gay" Marriage in Washington State
As Washington's legislature works diligently to force homosexual marriage on its constituents, one of the more high-profile corporate entities in the Evergreen State has volunteered to help. In a January 24 statement, Starbucks vice president Kalen Holmes announced that the coffee retailing giant was proudly joining "other leading Northwest employers in support of Washington State legislation recognizing marriage equality for same-sex couples." Holmes emphasized that the measure, which would legalize homosexual partnerships as equal with traditional marriage, "is aligned with Starbucks business practices" and is "core to who we are and what we value as a company."
Religious Groups Vow to Fight Obama's Contraception Mandate
The Obama administration announced January 20 that under its 2010 ObamaCare medical legislation employers will be compelled to cover birth control for women free of charge, including controversial contraceptive drugs which can induce abortion early in a woman's pregnancy. The administration rejected an appeal from religious organizations, led by the Catholic Church, for an exemption on insurance provided to employees of religious institutions such as hospitals, colleges, and charities.
Pro-Life Group Releases List of Most Pro-Life States
For the pro-life movement, 2011 was a banner year. According to the group Americans United for Life (AUL), a total of 47 state legislatures introduced 460 pro-life bills, ultimately implementing 70 laws designed to protect the unborn and their mothers. From de-funding Planned Parenthood, to informed consent laws, to measures designed to discourage abortion among minors, more states pushed more pro-life legislation than ever before.
Big-City Mayors Go to Bat for Same-Sex Marriage
Mayors of more that 70 U.S. cities have joined forces in support of fully legalizing homosexual marriage. According to the Associated Press, the mayors of New York, Boston, Houston, Los Angeles, and San Diego announced that they would co-chair the group Mayors for the Freedom to Marry, which was launched January 20 during the winter meeting of the U.S. Conference of Mayors in Washington, D.C.
Guttmacher/WHO Study Is Abortion Propaganda, Pro-Life Leader Says
A British-based pro-life leader said that a recent study by two influential organizations supposedly showing that "unsafe" abortions are on the rise is nothing more than pro-abortion propaganda.
Washington State Governor Puts "Gay" Marriage on Fast Track
As she heads into the last year of her tenure in the state of Washington, Democratic Governor Christine Gregoire (left) has a handful of policy initiatives she would like to push through to pad her political legacy: balance the state's budget, raise state revenues, create some jobs to help the economy, improve education. And force through a bill legalizing homosexual marriage.
NYC's 40 Percent Abortion Rate Highest in Nation
About 40 percent of all pregnancies in New York City end in abortion, according to the most recent statistics from the city's health department. That makes the abortion rate of America's largest city more than double the national average. According to NYC health department numbers, the lives of more than 83,000 babies were ended via the murderous procedure in 2010, although, surprisingly, that number was down by one percent from the city's 2009 abortion statistics. But even more horrific was the news that 63 percent of teen mothers terminated their pregnancies with the help of an abortionist.

Lord Mayor's Show 2012

Wonderful show. Wish I had got a guide book. Has anyone got one for sale?

Was a great show but yet again for the second year running we got only a brief view of our fantastic Chesham All Girls band girls who were playing as part of the Corp of Drums. Why isn't someone alternating who is seen on TV - not everyone who wants to see the show can get to London to do so and this is the only other option. I'm sure they weren't the only ones missed out of the live broadcast - at the very least the entirity of the full parade should be uploaded to the BBC website so it can be viewed later by family, friends and supporters alike.
Denise Martin Sat Nov 10 2012 -
Saw the Lord Mayor's Show on TV this morning- teriffic, as ever. But am astounded that the fireworks have been cancelled this year on what is frankly a very flimsy premise.
Granted, it's been a big year for celebrations and of course both the Diamond Jubilee were accompanied by fireworks. BUT- and it's a big but- they could only be seen live and in the open by the lucky thousands who'd got tickets for the Diamond Jubilee Concert and Olympic Stadium ceremonies respectively. They may have had some TV coverage, but it's not the same- especially when BBC coverage cut away from the Mall fireworks too soon!
The Lord Mayors Show fireworks are one of only three occasions in the year when the PLA allows fireworks to be fired from the Thames, the others being the Thames Festival in September and New Years Eve. This unique backdrop allows everybody the chance to watch from riverside vantage points, and the reflection of fireworks in water adds a magical quality to proceedings.
I think there must be more to this cancellation than meets the eye- or doesn't as the case may be. What a pity that the already beleagured Corporation of London have drowned a last chance to celebrate a world-class city in 2012- the next display technically falls on 1st January 2013, after all. Had I not thought to check out websites, I would have wasted a journey up to town to see the fireworks today, and deliberately didn't worry about seeing one last weekend in expectation of tonight- this cancellation was very poorly publicised. Black mark, my Lord Mayor!Mark Savage Sat Nov 10 2012 -
It's a shame that yet again, no mention was made by the BBC of the Freemasons taking part in the parade, and only a distant shot of them marching past.
Seeing as how they are only second to the National Lottery in raising money for charity.
The Lions got a mention though :)APR Sat Nov 10 2012 -
Looking forward to seeing all the girls from the Hadleigh Temple Salvation Army Timbrel Brigade

Noooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!! I love fireworks and was hoping to see some as I missed out last weekend. Totally gutted. Completely pants idea - how can you have too many fireworks?!? You just can't. Completely wrong call organisers!
Kate Adams Sat Nov 10 2012 -
It is a shame!No Fire works display this year on Lord Mayor's show.. Breaking the 685 years old of tradition! Visitors from other countries would definitely be disappointed! I don't agree the reason .. A silly reason for a great city of London that too when a person like Boris is the Mayor!!!!
soma Fri Nov 9 2012 -
NO FIREWORKS ! I'm gutted !
fatima Fri Nov 9 2012 -
Right because we all got to go to the opening ceremony of the Olympics and to the Diamond Jubilee celebrations.
This was a chance for those who didn't get to these but are still expected to pay for it all to have a nice day out and a great send off. Which is pretty much EVERYONE in London!!!Robert Fri Nov 9 2012 -
Well this Lord Mayor will certainly go down as one of the great killjoys.
What No fireworks ! Thu Nov 8 2012

Goal Accomplished!!!! - Stacia Naquin
Updated: 12/12/2013 - I finally did my pull up!!! It was a New Year's Resolution that took me ALL YEAR! But I did it.
Credit: AP
Two Republican members of the University of Colorado Board of Regents are expected to ask their colleagues to support the right to carry concealed guns on the school's campuses.
The Daily Camera reports Jim Geddes of Sedalia and Sue Sharkey of Windsor are proposing a resolution saying "gun-free zones" leave law-abiding citizens vulnerable to harm.
The board is expected to vote on the measure in Colorado Springs on Wednesday or Thursday.
The Colorado Supreme Court has struck down CU's gun ban, sparking a backlash from several faculty members. And CU's student government supports a bill that seeks to once again ban guns in higher education buildings.
That bill received initial approval Friday in the state House on a voice vote but still must get a recorded vote before it can go to the Senate.

Winner of the 1979 Templeton Foundation Prize for Progress in Religion and now or recently serving as an officer of the International Association for Religious Freedom, the World Conference on Religion and Peace, the Japan Religions League, and the Federation of the New Religious Organizations of Japan, Nikkyo Niwano is one of the most active religious leaders in the world today. This is Niwano's own refreshingly candid account of his life, from his childhood on a small farm in northern Japan, through his years of religious search, and finally to the founding and growth of Rissho Kosei-kai, a lay Buddhist organization with well over six million members throughout the world. In a modest, often thought-provoking text, both the public and private sides of the life of a modern religious leader are revealed with great warmth and honesty. As this book demonstrates, Niwano is truly a lifetime beginner, an uncommon man who greets each new day, each new experience, as a beginning. |

My living room is cutrently in shaded of cream, aqua an sage. I just got some great endtables that need redone. My style is kind of a mix between shabby chic and country. Any idead on the color for my great tabled? My coffeetable is cream and I'm wanting something different. Some have suggested black. Thanks.....Susan | |||
I'm on my phone....please forgive my typos... | ||||
Espresso may be another option tho it's generally not typical of shabby chic or country. | ||||
The multiple colors sound eclectic but that may be terrific, given your shabby chic/country style. One question, is it a small room/space? If so, you might prefer less contrast. Could really use some photos before stating a specific color. If you add them, you'll probably receive many helpful suggestions. Good Luck! | ||||
| ||||
I just checked out Sherwin Williams colors and think that Hep Green or Humorous Green or something like those would look great! | ||||

PERSONAL HISTORY about smells and the memories they evoke. The first time the writer walked into the grove of pines behind his house in Connecticut, he experienced a form of time travel: the trees smelled exactly like the summer camp he attended when he was thirteen. But the trees soon lost their power to send him back in time. Today, his yard smells only like his yard. On a recent trip to Kansas City, where the writer grew up, he and his sister Anne visited a number of places they remembered from their childhood to find out whether they still smelled the same. They visited a medical building where their dentist's office used to be. The smell was familiar but disappointingly faint. The most enduring and evocative remembered smell from their growing up, the writer and his sister decided, was the smell of the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art where they had gone on many field trips. As they drove to the museum, the writer was able to generate a mental simulacrum of its smell. Yet, once he and Anne were back inside the building, they could find no trace. The smell was gone. Eerily, today, the writer can no longer reproduce the old smell of the museum in his mind. The writer visits a store that was called the Dime Store when they were growing up and now known as the (New) Dime Store. The store's smell is now dominated by scented candles. Nevertheless, there was much about the (New) Dime Store that seemed gratifyingly familiar. Writer recalls the fragrances of his paternal grandmother, known as Gaga: her perfume, her beloved roses, her tooth powder, and the vapors that filled the narrow closet by her front door. The writer and his sister visit the house his parents bought in 1961 and lived in until 1991 and discover that the basement smelled exactly the same. Writer recalls the smell of cigarette smoke and the parties his parents threw when he was a child. Describes how he recently changed deodorant and began using Old Spice, which was the kind his father used. Smelling the Classic Original Scent Old Spice for the first time, he was almost knocked over by the physical memory of his father. The writer must now decide whether to stay with this deodorant, which would cause his brain to overwrite its evocative power, or save it for special occasions.

LOL. You wouldn't if your sister had a friend that does it for a living. When my brother got married last month, all of the booze was free----courtesy of her friend. That's right--product placement baby! Probably saved him several grand. Seems like advertising is starting to run everything. For me the final straw was the viagra race car...

Its not a fact, its your opinion. I understand its an opinion you adhere to strongly but that doesn't mean its a fact.
That google fights spam is a fact. That it might not always be effective is a fact. That the sandbox even exists is not a fact. That it is being used to fight spam is also not a fact.

The stuff you do in your business, do you do it to make a profit?
I don't know about you, but the stuff I do, I do it to make a profit. It just so happens that I have a lot of fun along the way, but it's much more fun when I make a profit.
Am I hearing you correctly when it seems as if you think Google shouldn't be doing things for their business that will make them a profit? Is Google held to some higher standard in your mind that puts them in non-profit status or something?
Google is NOT non-profit. They are for-profit. And everything they do should in fact help them increase those profits. If not, then they'd just be dumb. Sorry, but Google is anything but dumb.

But your use of very emotive language seems to go to the heart of the issue IMO. You are insistent (to the point of appearing to be angry) that you are right. Don't you see? No one can challenge anyone successfully on the basis of a belief if both parties are equally committed to their respective beliefs. the only real substance of what you said appears to be the passion with which you say things. Please don't take that as an insult as its not. I respect your passion but other than a vague feeling there doesn't seem to be anything other than your passionate belief that 'something' is awry.
You believe there is something weird going on. You might be right but there is no evidence to support that supposition. Most people don't believe anything particularly untoward is happening- they might be wrong but again, there's no real evidence to back that up.
Until there is evidence to back up or refute your claims then this discussion is never going to reach a satisfactory conclusion for you.

I take huge exception here, I thought is was a given that you all agree that sandboxing is happening. Look around or do you prefer me to paste in the research that will take a while. http://www.webmaster.../25654-1-10.htm here is a 30 page thread full up with people who see this happening over and over. I am actually to the point of not arguing with anyone that it is not happening because my time is more valuable than that. If you don't think its happening then you have not looked into the issue. If you have and still don't think its happening IMO you are blind. lol. I agree just because I am passionate about it does not make it true but I though you all agreed that it is happening. I though the argument was if its acceptable or moral or a good business practice.
Jill of course its ok for them to make a profit. However, I would argue that you would make more profit by keeping your results fresh instead of stale. I don't like months old bread and I don't like months old search results. Call me crazy but this is a bad business decision and the Press should report it.

No offence, but as one who used to work in a Casino, what people think they see, and what actually happens are two very different things. Some of my favourites:
"70% of the time after a zero, the next number is black"
"There is a system that wins" (Yeh, right!)
"There are hot dealers that the casino brings in to stop players when a table starts winning" (There are "hot" dealers, but onlyin the visual appeal sense.. I even dated a few.. but that's another thread..)
"Female dealers have a better aura, and they lose more often. That is why the casino prefers hiring men" (forget anti-discrimination laws)
"Since {INSERT DATE HERE} I am ${XY} in front. I have a system that works." (real story: The week before I lost my house and car, but since last tuesday I am winning)
"There are lasers in the roof that calculate the worst number for the players (roulette), and make sure the ball lands in them and everyone loses" (WRONG!!!... they were magnets )
"9/10 times a 10 follows a 6" (statistically, given all "face" cards are ten, it is actually 4/13).
I think you get my point. People see all sorts of things.
To debate an issue, it needs ot be defined. What defines the "sandbox"? There are many definitions I vehemently disagree with. There are some that make some sense. Either way, I think I have all the tools to "beat it" that I need.

Am I the only one that sees what you're saying as a contradiction?
One minute you say that Google is doing this sandbox thingee, cuz they want to make money and are greedy.
The next minute you say they would make more money by not doing it.
That pretty much invalidates your original reasoning then, no?
Posted 01 October 2004 - 01:05 AM
No offense it just seems obvious that stale results are bad for you and I and bad for the surfer. I can see no reason for it. Nobody has yet given a good argument of why it would be a good policy for the G to make. "its a spam filter" We all know that is a lame excuse filled with all kinds of problems, some of which have been stated before.

You're still not getting it.
The opinions of however many people on forums is not evidence. Its just a lot of opinions. You have no evidence there even is a sandbox, let alone what it does.
For the record, I'm not saying you're wrong (or right), I'm just saying opinion isn't fact, neither is firm belief.
What you're asked projectphp for is impossible for him to answer accurately without intimate knowledge of Google. As it is, he would still have a better argeument that you given that Google have (IIRC) catagorically denied the sandbox exists.

Why I prefer Morrowind to Fallout 3
I've had TES3: Morrowind for several years. Got the GOTY edition. I finally figured out why I like it better than my recently-acquired Fallout 3. I've always been a fallout fan. Always. I cannot begin to describe the excitement I felt when I read the announcement of it's developer. But playing through it several times reveals something: I liked Morrowind better. Chock it up to familiarity or memories of playing it on my first computer or whatever else, but I really do like it better. I finally figured out why: it places no emphasis on the main plot. F3 throws you into the main quest, Morrowind throws you into a town in the middle of nowhere and gives you a vague recommendation to head to Balmora (first thought: "Where the heck is that?"). Also, Morrowind changes your character depending on how you play. If you start out using Long swords and decide you like bows better, pick up a bow and start shooting things. Eventually you will be better with a bow than with a long sword. Fallout 3 also lets you do pretty much anything no matter your skills (aside from Terminals and Locked doors), but depends on you to increase the skills when you level, opposite from Morrowind, which depends on you to increase your skills to level.
Just my 2 cents.

Grace Groups
Grace Groups and Cell / Celebration at Grace Point
Q. What is a Grace Group (the cell aspect of cell / celebration)?
A. A Grace Group is a small intimate group of six to twelve people, on average, who come together on a periodic basis in designated homes or other meeting places. Their purpose is to encourage one another in fellowship, in prayer, in understanding Biblical principles and in evangelizing their community. Just as natural cells are for maintaining physical life, Cell based churches believe cell groups (Grace Groups) are necessary for maintaining spiritual life and are Christ's model for completing the Great Commission.
The Early Church Example:
Following the example of the early church in Acts 2:46-47, we see "Cell Group Ministry" at its core. The model of the New Testament Church of Acts 2:46-47 says, - They worshipped together regularly at the Temple and also met regularly in small groups in homes for communion and fellowship. The shared their meals together with great joy and thankfulness, praising God and each day God added to them all who were being saved (paraphrased).
Like the early church, Grace Point has a two winged approach to meeting; a public "temple" service on Sunday (the Corporate Celebration) and a more private "home" meeting of smaller groups of 6 – 12 during other days of the week (the cell or in this case Grace Group)
The pattern still works today! As a believer or seeker, you need a group of like minded people to support and surround you. They can offer prayer, keep you accountable in any area of weakness and or strength and be a support to you during difficult trying times. In addition a Grace Group is the ultimate place to test and develop your individual gifting. Your Grace Group partners will help you discover your spiritual gifts and help you to learn how to apply those gifts.
When you come to a Sunday Celebration service you will see the "Face" of Grace Point; when you attend a Grace Group you will experience the "Heart" of Grace Point.
The Purpose of a Grace Group
To grow in relationship with the Father
To grow in relationship with one another
To grow in our individual gifting and anointing through ministry
To be disciple and to disciple others
To evangelize and win to Jesus those within our circle of influence.
Types of Grace Groups
Men's Groups
Women's Groups
Family Groups
Homogenous Groups (like interests)
Youth Groups
Prayer Groups
Specialized Groups
Geographical Groups
Note: You may choose the type of group that most fits your personality, interests or needs.
Q. Why should I be in a Grace Group?
A. There are many reasons. Everyone of us has an inherent need to belong. Grace Group participation will meet that need. As you build relationships with others a bond is created. It is our deep personal friendships that make our life rich and your Grace Group allows for just such a blessing.
When you need encouragement your Grace Group supplies, when you need help your Grace Group is there, when you need prayer your Grace Group is on their knees interceding on your behalf. Pastoral care escalates in Grace Groups because of the small intimate size of the group. Your Shepherd (Grace Group Leader) can immediately take the needed steps to help you in any way and if there is a need that the Church Leaders (Grace Point Overseers) need to know about they are notified at once. There are many benefits that you will experience when you join a Grace Group, but the biggest one is relationship; relationship with God and relationship with each other.
Q. Will I be called on to talk or pray?
A. No! Group Leaders are trained to be sensitive, not only to the Lord, but also to the people within the group. There is no pressure applied to persons who are not yet ready to pray or to share before the group. It is however within the long-range goals of every Grace Group leader to develop deep personal relationships within the group members so to that in time every person in the group will feel safe enough to have the liberty to pray or to share a comment or a testimony or whatever is on their heart at the time.
Q. How long does the group meeting last?
A. Meetings last on average for 90 minutes – 2 hours, but the format is flexible and you are welcome to come on go as your time needs dictate. This allows for those who have children in school and wish to get them to bed or who may have other issues such as job needs etc to attend group and also meet those other concerns.
Meetings do sometimes go longer then the allotted time and often people choose to stay and fellowship after the formal portion of the meeting has ended. But again, the freedom is yours to come and go as your needs dictate.
Q. Should I bring my children?
A. Yes and No. Each group is different and you will need to get plugged into a group that meets your needs / interests and if children are a part of that need, then let's get you into a group where children are welcome and then yes bring them. But please know that not every group is set up to allow for children and often inside of the group sensitive things are discussed and this may need to be considered from time to time if someone is dealing with a particular issue that may not be child appropriate.
There is also the option of the group providing for the children in other aspects. Some groups appoint someone within the group to schedule activities for the children, some groups arrange for a baby-sitter to watch the children during the meeting.
Where children are concerned, there are many options and we are sure there is one to fit you needs and desires even if that desire is to just have a night away from the kids.
Q. Is it a "Bible Study"?
A. Yes and No. Not in the strictest sense of the phrase. While teaching from the Word is part of the basic structure of the meeting, the teaching time is more discussion oriented and not teacher student oriented. The group leaders serve as a facilitator to promote the discussion and the meeting in general. A great effort is made in each group to practically apply the Word of God to each of the group members lives. There is also an emphasis on personal ministry to the individual needs of each group member.
In addition, the group flow is designed to be lead by the Holy Spirit and as such, have structure, but be flexible enough within that structure to allow for Holy Spirit to lead. This may take and will take different shapes and forms as we grow deeper in out ability to be receptive to and lead by the Holy Spirit (i.e. some times a group may just go out and get ice cream and fellowship or sometimes they may feel called to do a prayer walk within the neighborhood or town, or it just may be a night of deep worship – however the Holy Spirit leads),
Q. What other things are typically done in meetings?
A. Each meeting will vary in order and flow, but typically a meeting might begin with a time of informal fellowship and the when the meeting starts there is usually a sharing question called and "icebreaker:. It is a simple question designed to get people a change to share about themselves thus giving everyone in the group a chance to learn about each other. This usually takes 15 minutes or so and then there is a time of worship either in song or in reading or the Word such as something from the Book of Psalms. Often someone in the group who plays guitar may lead this time or the group may choose to sing along to a worship CD or tape – it really doesn't matter what the format, the goal is to worship the Lord and to invite Him to share the evening with us.
After the time of worship, the usually is a time in the Word where there may be a short teaching, but usually it is a time where the Word is read and then a discussion is generated about what was read. After that there is usually a time where needs, both physical needs and prayer needs are presented and where possible met. Needs may arise that the group can meet from a physical standpoint (like someone needing a ride someplace during the week etc) and needs may arise where prayer and the laying on of the hands is called for. Wherever possible the need is met and where the need cannot be met, the group is asked to keep that need in prayer throughout the week.
The meeting typically closes with a prayer and a sharing of the vision.
This structure is known as the 4 Ws (Welcome, Worship, Word and Works). It is the basic structure of Grace Groups, but again the structure is loose, allowing for the Holy Spirit's leading.
Q. How do I know which group to be in?
A. It is your choice. Because we plan to have groups over a broad geographic area you may choose to be in the group which is closest to you. Homogeneous (like interest) groups are popular because members have common interests. Many also choose to attend groups with people they already have strong relationships with even if it does mean they might have to drive further to get there. All options are okay – the choice is yours.
Note: Virtually all ministries of Grace Point can be an outflow of the Grace groups. Hospital visitation, prison ministries, youth ministries, evangelism events as well as benevolence needs and so on, can all be served in and through the Grace Groups. If a Group has a heart for a particular ministry, they are encouraged to pick up that ministry and run with it. Therefore we do not view Grace Groups as just another program of Grace Point; quite the contrary; we view Grace Groups as the core of Grace Point. The ministry which all other ministries flow out of. This concept has deep spiritual basis and one that is remarkably effective as it models God's design for His "New Testament Church".

Heraea - The Palms
Online Reservations
My experience at Heraea's was a fantastic one. We had a chance to watch the NCAA games there on their big screen TV''s while lounging on one of their comfortable couches in the bar area. Our server Nicole was excellent and very helpful and courteous, especially after accidentally spilling a few drinks. The food was fantastic as we sampled a wide variety of appetizers. The kobe sliders and the crispy green beans were among my favorite. The only set back in our experience was getting to bet. They offer iPads so you can gamble during the games, but the girl never came around. But other than that, this place does not disappoint when it comes to fun, good service and great food. We will definitely be back and will be bringing some friends
My first time dining at "Heraea" with my sister. (hers as well) Very pleasant atmosphere and great service!! The music level was excellent, we could hear each other talk without talking too loud. We will return!!
Perfect spot for a couple to have dinner & watch a game. Atmosphere is pleasant & the service was outstanding. Our food was delicious!!
We went to herara as our pre concert date night dinner. The service was too notch. At least 3 people stopped by our table To chat and give recommendations. We really enjoyed the spinach and crab dip. My boyfriend had the steak Which was cooked just how he liked it and everything as advertises. The sea bass was the best I've ever had. Well Seasoned and not over cooked. Serving sizes vary and the servers will tell you which is for the smaller vs larger appetite. There weren't alot of patrons probably bc this restaurant picks up towards the evening hours and we went at 530. There were some hungry party animals in from the palms pool party. The music was modern and they have a dj booth. We want to Come back for the evening atmosphere!
Easy atmosphere; decent menu; and good service. We had a light dinner: Tempura green beans; oysters; Cobb salad and Southwestern Chicken salad. All food very fresh and flavorful. Nice pour on cocktails. A very nice dining experience.

UK produces 150,591 vehicles in May 2012
Achieves highest monthly car output since 2004.
By New Statesman Published 14 June 2012UK automotive plants manufactured 150,591 vehicles in May, the highest level of output since 2004, according to figures released by the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT).
Of the total, 141,146 were cars and 9,445 were commercial vehicles (CV). Car manufacturing rose by 42.2 per cent, with year-to-date volumes up 17.3 per cent. Output in CVs, however, was subdued: 9,445 vehicles were produced, a 7.4 per cent decline.
Engine manufacturing increased 13.4 per cent in May, as year-to-date volumes topped the one million mark.
Paul Everitt, chief executive of SMMT, said:
Car manufacturing in May hit the highest level of output since 2004 posting 42.2 per cent growth, a sizable recovery against volumes hampered by last year's Japanese tsunami. This boost, coupled with robust year-to-date results demonstrates the strength of UK automotive manufacturing and shows why it continues to attract high levels of international investment.
While commercial vehicle output remains subdued, in line with restrained levels of demand, the year's engine output volume passed one million in May and is more than 40,000 units ahead of last year.
1 comment
Seeing that car production has increased in the UK, it might be safe to say that the manufacturing industry there will soon see a slight improvement. This is definitely good news for the economy.

I'm pretty sure Kitsap Sports built that location and they've been there for what 17 years or so? Besides not being high visibility, it's a pretty good location.
My recollection is that a furniture (?) store built the building that Kitsap Sports uses today.
It is a poor location since there are virtually no sight lines to draw attention to it. REI will need great signage. Maybe a large climbing tower so that folks on Hwy 3 can see it.
But, I trust die-hard REI customers will find it in that out-of-the-way location.

Pigs in a box
23 March 2007
Pigs in a box? Now that sounds unusual, but enrichment for our animals is a necessary part of their day and one of the many fun things we do for our cute little pigs, is to put some snacks into a box and let them forage through it.As soon as they see the box, out of curiosity, they can't wait to run over to check it out and of course, with the usual scramble, it's first in best serve.
With 6 little piglets all trying to push their way in to see what's inside, it doesn't take long before the contents begin spilling out and even the shyest and quietest of the bunch get a taste of those goodies.
So what are these tasty snacks? (tasty for little pigs anyway) Well, we use a variety of foods including grass, lucerne, hay and a mixture of stock feed, seeds and some chopped up veges and fruit. They love corn, carrot, zucchini, beans, sweet potato and tomato just to name a few, and fruits such as apple and kiwi fruit which are high on the list. Wow, what fun they have pushing and shoving, but all 6 pigs do not fit in the box, so it isn't long before the box bursts open to fully reveal all its contents which are now consumed with delight.

Here were are, another Monday. Last one in September. Sigh.
I had a decent weekend, though I can't say I was anything like productive. Saturday was spent running around a little, with an opportunistic nap for good measure. Watched Bridesmaids, which was better then I expected, but not as funny as advertised. Still, pleasant enough.
Sunday I did some errands, but honestly, mostly I played Dead Island. I mean, it was a pretty enough day outside, but I hadn't played my game all week and had a real itch to beat on some zombies. Itch scratched.
Should be a fairly busy week at work, lots of office moves I have to work on. No travel that I'm aware of.
You go have a day.

Atrial Fibrillation Surgery
The Swedish Heart and Vascular Institute is the most comprehensive heart-surgery program in the area, with nationally recognized cardiac surgeons who treat the full spectrum of heart problems, including atrial fibrillation surgery.
Atrial fibrillation is a rapid and disorganized heartbeat that may cause everything from heart failure to stroke. It can often be treated with medications. But when medications are not an option or are ineffective, surgery may be considered.
Surgical treatment for atrial fibrillation may also be considered when there is a need to treat a coexisting heart condition, such as valve or coronary artery disease.
At the Swedish Heart & Vascular Institute, we specialize in the modified Maze procedure, which can treat the atrial fibrillation and restore the atria to a more normal size. During this procedure, a series of precise incisions are made in the right and left atria to interrupt the abnormal impulses and allow a return to a normal heartbeat.

Statistics compiled by the U.S. Coast Guard show more duck and goose hunters die every year from cold water shock, hypothermia and drowning than from accidents involving firearms.
"The thing about duck hunters is they don't see themselves as boaters," said Capt. Mike Fields, boating law administrator for the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources. "They see a boat as a tool to use while hunting."

Maplesville did not punt in the first half, and the only drive the team didn't score on was stopped by a fumble recovered by WInterboro.
On Maplesville's first possession, junior Damian Mitchell returned the punt more than 50 yards, but was stopped just short of the end zone. One play later, a 1-yard touchdown was run in, but the kick was no good giving Maplesville a 6-0 lead with 9:21 in the first.
WInterboro maintained possession through most of the first quarter, and ended the first 12 minutes with a 4-yard touchdown run from Cardri Ducan. The two-point conversion was no good, tying the game at 6-6.
The scoring drive for Winterboro was 12 plays and 66 yards.
The next quarter was largely one-sided. Maplesville took touchdowns on every possession of the second, including a 31-yard touchdown pass from Colby Chambers to Mitchell with 57 seconds left. The Red Devils took a 28-6 lead into the half.
The Devils capitalized on a short punt by WInterboro early in the next half, and Chambers ran in a 9-yard touchdown with 9:04 left in the third. The Bulldogs then set up a short drive riddled with sacks that only gained six yards. Mitchell would run in the next touchdown for the Devils, a six-yard score with 2:05 left in the third.
To start the fourth, the Devils would go three-and-out and barely gain 20 yards on their punt. Set up on the Maplesville 25 yard line, senior Taylor Garrett would connect with Cedrick McKenzie on a 21-yard touchdown pass. The two-point conversion was no good, bringing the score to 41-12 in favor of the Devils.
On the next play, Mitchell returned the kickoff 85 yards for a special teams score.
In WInterboro's next attempt, freshman Micheal Hunt of the Devils intercepted Casey Goins' first-down pass and ran it 35 yards back for a touchdown with 9:17 left in the game.
Winterboro fumbled the kickoff and it was swiftly recovered by Maplesville. The Devils failed to produce on that drive.
Goins connected with Bernard Twymon on a third-and 24 play and Twymon ran the ball in with 3:45 left in the game. Goins ran in the keeper on the two-point conversion, giving the final score of the game.
Winterboro head coach David Nurnberg said the biggest thing going against his team was themselves.
"It started in the first quarter, and we never picked it back up," Nurnberg said. "You know, we got down on ourselves and weren't able to overcome the mental stuff. That really affects your entire game, and I told them the score doesn't matter. The way you play the game matters, and we didn't play our best."
Going into next week's game against Fayetteville on the road, Nurnberg said he hopes his team can focus on its own game.
"I think the biggest thing for us is going to be if we can overcome adversity," Nurnberg said. "Not every team is going to be a Maplesville, but if we get down on ourselves early, that's hard to compensate for. You can make little tweaks to your game and personnel, but they have to go out there and want it."
The Bulldogs did have some bright spots, including a 71-yard quarter from Twymon.
Nurnberg said he was pleased with the sophomore's performance, but not surprised.
"Bernard wasn't running the football in the spring, but he has really taken to it quick," Nurnberg said. "I think he's a great player and able to break tackles and make moves when he needs to. He's a great addition to our backfield and he always come through when it counts."
In just his first game as a head coach for Winterboro, Nurnberg said he feels confident in his group.
"It's always hard to learn a new system, but tonight was better than I think the scoreboard showed," Nurnberg said. "We obviously have some things to work on. Maplesville is the kind of team to exploit opportunities, and they really did that to us on special teams. I think if our guys can get in and stay focused on what we do, we can do some good things this season."

Again, I would suggest simply trying the CAT3/5 wiring and get as many "clean" pairs as possible into use and/or as redundant circuits, and ignore what your impedance meters may tell you. Four (two twisted pairs) would do the trick and you get decent performance, maybe even 100baseT levels. The theoreticians and white paper writers usually don't take into account the irregularities of the real world. Truly it is almost impossible to accurately predict the real impedance of a cable set that is "dark". Modern impedance matching techniques built into modern ethernet circuits and chip sets can sometimes handle a very broad range of impedance mismatches once the wires are "heated up". Try it ... test the available wiring with a couple of laptops. Interestingly, the use of "mismatched" or "off brand" ethernet adapters (PCI or PCMCIA cards) will sometimes work better than the name brand originals, which are often manufactured with "tighter" specs. than the no name clones. " ... Honestly, I don't think that a 30 foot run (ten meters, barely longer than their five meter limit in toto) will be too much of a problem, although one might have to experiment a bit and get very clean connections to the terminators on both ends. ..." ... hear, hear ...

Shooting with Dan Sharp
The Rapha Continental - Amgen Tour of California 2011 films and photos are now live on the site. The video were done by a fantastic Portland based crew by the name of the DropTree Productions. This was the very same crew that shot and assembled last years Gentlemen's Race, and they will be with us when we head to Colorado at the beginning of next month. The photos were done by none other than Dan Sharp. He has been involved with this project from the very beginning and as a riding partner to us all.
Dan has a particular style and if you look back through some of the photos that we have put up over the past few years you will see that start to emerge. He likes to play with the available light, shadows and reflections tend to stand out more than with others. There is also an intimacy that Dan draws out with his subjects. This could be, in part, because he is such a good photographer that he looks for these moments, but the other part of that is his personal connection to the riders. We have all ridden with Dan Sharp and it is possible that he picks up on our eccentricities and channels them in through his photos.
There is something that Dan does that sets him apart from a few of the others though. He shoots and rides at the same time. It was a trick that he pulled out of his bag of tricks for our third day of riding in California. Stage Five from Seaside to Paso Robles, which has now been changed (in the actual race) due to the roads being out, was a winding route next to the ocean on Hwy1. The vehicular support had been stymied for this very same reason, a road had partly collapsed preventing anyone but cyclists and people on foot from getting through. Dan did the right thing and kitted up and grabbed his camera. Fortunately for us he had decided to bring his bike along to get some riding in when we were done for the day and before you knew it he was on the road with us.
That mornings ride turned out to be absolutely fantastic as we had the road to ourselves and the sun coming up over the hills. Dan rode with us for the majority of the morning, snapping photos as we zipped along next to the water. His photos, in my estimation, inherited some of his enthusiasm for riding, and we were much better for it. His excitement could not be contained and we were all "smiles for miles" that morning.
Thanks to Dan Sharp for lending his well trained eye to the photo side of the Rapha Continental's take on the Amgen Tour of California.

Wednesday Matinee
It has been just over a month since we rode through Yellowstone National Park, but seeing this new film of Beartooth Pass today brings us right back to the journey of the Rapha Continental tour of the US that happened over the past few months. A 30-minute descent as part of a 124-mile day in one of the States' most beautiful parks is truly a dream.
Before the month's end we will begin telling the fuller story of the people, places and rides from the summer; publishing the maps, cue sheets, essays and plentiful photography to inspire and hopefully encourage exploration in the new year.
Lastly, we want to thank all the hosts, partners, builders, and friends that allowed us to discover these beautiful rides that we're excited to share over the winter.
We've also added 5 new films to the collection and more should be cut in the next couple of weeks, so stay tuned.

Results by Betting System – ALL | Best Bets | Smart Money | Steam Moves
Square Plays Results by Sport – NFL | NBA | MLB | NHL | NCAA FB | NCAA BB
The Square Plays system is included in our Pro Membership. Every day we post the most lopsided games in terms of number of bets and percentage of bets. The square betting strategy takes advantage of over-shaded lines and greedy sportsbooks. If a line looks too good to be true, it's good to bet the other way because it consistently pays to "Bet Against the Public!"
We've tracked the Square Plays betting strategy since 2003 and as always, we let the results speak for themselves. SportsInsights.com pioneered the use of betting percentage data from online sports books to "Bet Against the Public." We have over 10 years of data (from 2003 to present) to support the claim that "Fading the Public" is profitable. Read articles showing the results of Betting Against the Public for all major US sports – the NFL, MLB, NBA, College Football, NCAA Basketball, and the NHL. Square Plays are released daily by 5:30pm ET, and on weekends by 12:00pm and 5:30pm ET.
