Great question.
Oatmeal does not have the same functionality as flour because it does not have gluten so your results will not be the same.
You can try substituting a portion of it but we have not tested that in the kitchens. Give it a try and let us know how it works.

We have 4 networked printers that are identical in every respect except name. We have recently tried to set them to print in black as default, but this proved very difficult so we now have a script that sets the registry key appropriately for each computer.
The scripts are identical other than the name of the printer and I have checked this over and over.
What now happens is that three of them are absolutely fine - no problems - printing in black as required, but the fourth one is proving an issue.
When logging on as a student or staff member, the printer is visible for about 10 seconds and then it just vanishes!
Other than putting policies in to run the scripts in appropriate OUs nothing else has been changed
I've never seen this before and would appreciate some help.
There is no info in any event log that I can see. The computers are Windows XP and the Server is 2008R2.

How effectively does Groupon leverage its size?
David Sinsky has some extremely smart Groupon analysis over at the Yipit blog, using numbers from the company's S-1 to throw into question just how good Groupon is at making ever-increasing amounts of money once it has entered a market.
That is, after all, the explicit rationale behind Groupon's ever-increasing losses:
We spend a lot of money acquiring new subscribers because we can measure the return and believe in the long-term value of the marketplace we're creating. In the past, we've made investments in growth that turned a healthy forecasted quarterly profit into a sizable loss. When we see opportunities to invest in long-term growth, expect that we will pursue them regardless of certain short-term consequences.
Groupon breaks out granular details for four cities in its S-1 — Chicago, its home; Boston, its second-oldest US market; Berlin; and London. The first is unique in many ways, while the last two were acquired when Groupon bought CityDeal, so Sinsky concentrates on Boston. And finds this:
These charts show quarterly revenue per subscriber, on the left — that's people getting Groupon's emails — and per customer, on the right, which is people who have actually bought coupons. Both are going down, which is worrisome.
The reason to worry about these trends is that as many people including Joshua Gans have said, the daily-deal space has very low barriers to entry and is highly competitive. As such, if Groupon has a "moat" — a comparative advantage over its competitors which is very difficult to overcome — it's its sheer size.
Size confers many advantages, not least targeting. As Kaiser Fung notes, the more new customers and fewer existing customers that a Groupon reaches, the more profitable it's likely to be for the merchant concerned. The best Groupons target a whole new audience for the merchant in question: the S-1 gives the example of a cruise line which was doing very well with its murder-mystery cruises but much less well with its romantic-dinner cruises. By offering a Groupon valid only for the romantic-dinner cruises, the company managed to broaden its customer base without losing revenues from its existing customers.
Benjamin Edelman says that for a Groupon to be highly profitable, it should be targeted at people who are "particularly unfamiliar with a participating merchant's services." And it stands to reason that Groupon, with the largest subscriber base and the most sophisticated targeting technology, should be better able to target Groupons at relatively narrow classes of people than any of its subscribers.
At the same time, because the best Groupons are aimed at people who are likely to become regular customers of the merchant in question and who are well-disposed towards trying it out, sophisticated targeting should increase Groupon's conversion rate substantially. Rather than just send the same deal out to everybody in a city, Groupon should be able to show you only those offers you're most likely to want, and thereby increase its conversion rate.
Sinsky says that doesn't seem to have happened in practice: "As the average purchases per customer continues to decline," he writes, "so will overall conversion rates on personalized deals." The trend isn't good: Groupon's Boston customers are less engaged, and less profitable — even as Groupon's costs for acquiring new customers continue to rise.
That said, Sinsky doesn't think that what we're seeing here is a failure of Groupon's targeting per se. Instead, we're seeing the effects of competition. Which is where Yipit's own data comes in:
A year ago, according to Yipit data, there were 9 daily deal services in Boston offering 15 active deals. Today, Yipit Boston shows 23 separate services offering daily deals including new successful entrants like TravelZoo and Yelp. The 23 services are responsible for creating 91 active daily deals. Worse for Groupon, there's no sign of this ending with Google and Facebook on the horizon. Plus, successful entrants like TravelZoo are still only running two deals a week.
Realistically, what we're seeing is improvements in Groupon's targeting technology failing to compensate for the rise in competition (which also increases Groupon's customer-acquisition costs.) Anecdotally, targeting technology still has a long way to go: for one thing, Groupon still isn't remotely local enough in cities where people spend most of their money within a mile or so of where they live, and where they often get offers for merchants on the other side of town. But it's not even clear how Groupon is going to get the kind of highly granular data about its subscribers' income, and profession, and exact location, and other things which would help it target offers. That's where the likes of Facebook and Foursquare have a clear advantage.
So while Groupon is still the biggest of the deal sites, the jury's still out on the degree to which its size is going to prove an unassailable advantage over the long term. In principle, a massive subscriber base could be a huge competitive advantage. But in practice, this could be one area where Groupon finds it hard to execute.

What's interesting is that a few articles I've come across suggest that a key reason for Groupon's growth has been being in Chicago and not in Silicon Valley… so that they've been focused on growth in the sales force rather than the technology back end. They've had great success with the merchants and top-line revenue growth but targeting is clearly not optimal (for the third time this week, I dont want half off moisturizer!). It sometimes feels like there's not much technological sophistication beyond a really big list of emails. Facebook is going to be hard to beat.
Groupon's business model is not sustainable; merchants cannot offer deals where they receive only 25% of their normal revenue (a 50% off coupon, of which groupon gets 50% of the revenue) for too long, or they will go out of business. It's one thing to offer a loss leader, quite another to put everything on sale.
There are no barriers to entry in this market, as even small websites that are locally operated (and familiar with the merchants and community) can easily compete with Groupon, without a big investment. If merchants want to continue to offer business-killing discounts, they will have other options besides groupon.
Groupon spends way too much on customer acquisition, most of whom don't even use the service. It might work if there was a guaranteed recurring revenue stream (like a 2-year wireless contract), but there are no penalties for cutting back on your groupon spending when you're short on cash.
The Groupon IPO will add to the debate on the latest dotcom bubble, and their failure will hopefully accelerate the popping of the bubble, so resources (human, capital, and time) that are being squandered on unnecessary and overhyped websites can be more efficiently utilized elsewhere.
KenG – I don't disagree with you, but what if 25% of their "normal" revenue via Groupon is better than 0% of their normal revenue via unsold merch?
KD, I guess if most of what they sell via groupon deals are unsaleable, then a 75% off fire sale makes sense. But that just reinforces my first point, that it's not sustainable, either for the merchant or Groupon. If they have lots of unsold merchandise, they're not going to last long anyway, and it's unlikely they will restrict the fire sale to just groupon customers. And if it's just a little inventory, then it won't generate much business for Groupon. And it certainly won't work for restaurants, unless they're selling day-old bread or leftovers.
Business overlap between different deal-a-day sites is inevitable; the only question is, whose coupons are better deals for the end user? (After all, if all deals are equal, there will be little incentive towards switching, and Groupon wins by default.) This requires one simple rule: smaller margins.
Google Offers utilizes Google Checkout for payment processing, enabling Google to shrink its margins but still gain a profit from one end or the other. In very short order, one would expect Google to use its Android base to streamline the process of utilizing mobile Offers via Checkout. That is a powerful thought.
Yes, barriers to entry are very low. But with Amazon and Google entering the ring, it's no longer the barrier to entry that matters, but economies of scale and quality of coupons / simplicity of coupon buying, that will determine the survival of any given site. (Proof: Dell Marketplace…few people use it, because it's a convoluted process to get in on a coupon.)
Felix & readers might find this one interesting:
http://www.knewton.com/blog/knewton/from -jose/2011/06/03/groupon-is-a-straight-u p-ponzi-scheme/
I live in suburban Connecticut, where Groupon does not yet have local merchants (closes is 45 minutes away in Hartford). However, there are a number of local imitators. I signed up for one, and was getting the "daily deal". None really interested me, but I started checking out the details on a few of them. Inevitably, the same "deal" was available, in many cases a better one, on the merchants website. I also checked with two local merchants I know who initially signed up. Both said that the deal was unprofitable for them, and that they had no intention of continuing. So, no deal for the customer, and a bad deal for the merchant. Sounds like a sustainable business model to me.
We're told almost daily that the American economy is suffering from a huge demand shortfall that is affecting businesses' ability to make money and create jobs. The economists tell us to use government spending to stimulate job creation. On the other hand, we have companies like Groupon whose business model seems to be extracting a fee and creating even more pricing pressure on the same struggling businesses who won't hire anyone. Here's a thought… go shopping and pay full price. Won't that be a much better stimulus?
To draw in new people (the reason merchants make the offer), you have to attract the people who don't usually patronize the place.
To interest consumers, you have to offer a place that people are naturally inclined to patronize on a whim, but will come back to on a regular basis at less of a discount.
Jessica Bloody Hagy could illustrate the sustainable Groupon market, but no one would believe it. The only thing that makes it sustainable is the pretense that Groupon e-mails are not spam, and those revenue levels suggest that more and more people are treating them that way.
KD, I hadn't seen that link you provided to Knewton, but if I had, I would have done what you did and not spent all that time writing my comments.
In addition to Felix and us readers finding that interesting, I would think would-be buyers of Goupon's IPO shares would find it interesting, as would any merchants who are considering using Groupon.
These comments miss the point about Groupon's business model. Businesses using Groupon don't actually want to make a sale. Yes, they want to sell PRE-PAID vouchers that EXPIRE in a short time frame, but they don't actually want customers to show up at the door. If you actually look at what's on offer at Groupon, it's usually services that can only be offered at a measured pace to a few customers per day (in my local area, Groupon appears to specialize in discounts on colonic irrigation). Combine this with vouchers that expire within three to six months and the end result is that there are going to be a whole lot of pre-paid, but unirrigated colons out there where the merchant (and Groupon) make a whole lot of money for doing nothing. This is a mug's game for consumers, which they're clearly cottoning onto.
It doesn't help that they have loopholes. Users register multiple accounts to earn $10 commission!
http://blog.just2us.com/2011/07/how-to-a lways-earn-10-for-each-groupon-deal/
On a merchant capital project we tried this and people signed up with multiple accounts just to receive the $20 commission we were offering on one of the big commission sites, cj.com.
This is very interesting, You're a very skilled blogger. I've joined your rss feed and look forward to seeking more of your excellent post. Also, I have shared your web site in my social networks!

YouTube X-rates breast examination vid
YouTube has moved to protect kiddies from "potentially offensive" footage of a UK sawbones performing breast and testicular examinations, The Sun reports. Two videos of Dr Chris Steele - as seen on ITV's This Morning and host of TheFamilyGP.com - have been rated "adults-only" lest wide-eyed innocents stumble across their …
YouTube *nannies* too much...
you tube is getting just too prudish - and stupid!! It does have a mechanism to 'protect' people - you have to register for an count, and follow the prompts, to see content!!
and even then, as it *hates* the humanbody, deleting content..
I would tell Dr Steele to goto a different video site, where *adults* are given more respect... eg mojoflix or dailymotion..
It's YouTube's users who are the nannies
Actually, the decision to "X-Rate" YouTube content is made by the community at large, not YouTube management. Every video has a link below it marked "Flag as inappropriate". Anyone clicking this link adds a flag to the video; if the video accumulates enough flags, it gets rated as inappropriate and you have to sign in to view it. The video is not censored at all; the only difference is the required sign-in.
So this is more the prurient sensibilities of the YouTube community, with people from around the world flagging content as inappropriate. Given the strong presence of religious elements in that community, it is not surprising that any video showing genitalia gets flagged, regardless of its motives. Censorship begins at home; when the do-gooders, curtain-twitchers and religious freaks get together, it bodes ill for everyone else on this planet.

9 Get Started Tips for The Bible Study App5
If you're new to The Bible Study App, you might be asking yourself "where do I start?" Here's Nine Quick Tips to get you started in The Bible Study App. (Screenshots taken from an iPad. Please note that icon graphics vary somewhat across devices).
1. The "Library" Button: This is where you can find all of the Bibles, commentaries, dictionaries, and other resources you've downloaded to your devices. You can choose from All, Recent, or Favorites.
2. "My Stuff" Suitcase Button is the central nervous system of The Bible Study App. Here you can find your notes, bookmarks, highlights, tags, reading plans, and the ever important Sync button at the bottom left. If you haven't already done so, Click here to create an Olive Tree Account. I can't go into great detail here, but there are enormous benefits to creating an Olive Tree Account. It's Free and will only take a minute to set up.
3."History" Button: Do you ever get three verses into a Bible study and want to refer back to a previous verse? The History Button is the fastest way to refer back to a previous reference. You can view by date or by title.
4. Settings Button is where you can quickly customize the type and size of your font. For a more customized Bible Study App experience, you can then click the "Advanced Settings" for an array of other custom settings (social network, posting, custom iOS gestures, etc) within The Bible Study App.
5. Search Button: Search anything within the resource you are currently studying. In your Bible, you can even limit your search to the Old Testament, New Testament, or create a custom filter or range that you define.
6. Book Ribbons: Save your place in any resource with the Book Ribbon. To find your place, tap the My Stuff button and then tap the Book Ribbons button.
7. The Split Window Button: You don't have to switch back and forth to view different resources. With the Split Window Button, you can view your Bible and your favorite commentary at the same time. Also, our built in Resource Guide in the split window follows along, looking in your library for any information that is relevant to your reading. As you scroll or change scripture references the Resource Guide will stay in sync looking to all of your study resources making for a powerful and easy to use study tool.
8. The Sync option: I have a terrible memory, but thanks to The Bible Study App, I'm able to overcome it…mostly. I do my daily Bible Reading in the App and click sync when I'm done. This allows me to go into my other devices to access and keep up with my Reading Plan. The Bible is able to sink into my daily life and I can refer back to that morning's reading from wherever I am – on the go with my phone, on laptop at work, at coffee shops on my iPad, or at home on my desktop. Because of the Bible Study App Sync function, all of my custom highlights, tags, and bookmarks are always readily available. With Olive Tree's Automatic Background Sync, I don't have worry about whether or not my notes, highlights, bookmarks, and book ribbons are up to date.
9. Download The Bible Study App to every device you own. I personally have an iPhone 3GS, iPad 2, Windows Laptop, and Windows desktop. The advantage to having the App on your devices is that with an Olive Tree Account (have you created one yet?) you can access your entire library from wherever you study the Bible.
Obviously, I'm a big fan of the form and function of the Olive Tree Bible Study App. What are your top features of The Bible Study App? Where would you advise a new user to start? I would love your feedback.
5 Benefits of NICOT/NICNT in The Bible Study App11
The New International Commentary Series on the Old Testament (NICOT) and New Testament (NICNT) are highly regarded scholarly resources that are always ranked at the top by scholars, pastors, students, and professors.
Here are Five benefits of the NICOT/NICNT in The Bible Study App. (Screenshots are from an iPad. Click on Images for a larger view)
1. Resource Guide
Open your preferred Bible Translation in the main window and have the Resource Guide open in the Split Window. You'll see relevant NICOT/NICNT commentary "hits" in the split window.
The Bible Study App also keeps up with the scripture passage you're reading in the main window with sync scrolling. This means that as you move along in the Bible text, the NICOT/NICNT syncs to exactly where you are in your study. No more flipping pages back and forth. No more holding the commentary text open on your desk in one spot, reading through your Bible text, and having to go back and find your place in the commentary. You'll save an enormous amount of time with this feature alone.
2. Search & Look Up Feature
Search the NICOT/NICNT for words or passages. Take "love" as an example. You can search the entire NICOT/NICNT series for where "love" is mentioned in the commentary series. You can also limit your search to the Old Testament, New Testament, biblical genre, or a specific book.
When your search hits are displayed, you can tap on the result to go directly to that passage. You can also copy the text to add to an existing note or add a note right from the search results.
3. Linked Reference Pop ups
One of my greatest frustrations in the hard copy world of biblical commentaries are the other biblical references within the commentary. For example, when I'm reading in Matthew about the beginning of Jesus' ministry there are multiple references to The Lord's Chosen servant in Isaiah that are pertinent to my study. With a hard copy, I have to open a different Bible and find each and every reference to read how the verse relates to what I am currently studying. This is time consuming, slows down my study momentum, and requires me to keep all of my study materials out and open, spread out over a large desk space. With The Bible Study App, the scripture references are hyperlinked within the commentary text. All I have to do is tap the scripture reference to read it instantly.
Related to this is footnotes/endnotes. Since the NICOT/NICNT is a highly scholarly work, there are a lot of references to other materials. In the past I would have to stop where I was in the reading, look at the footnote, then go back to where I was in the writing. This also was a huge time waster, and I would often lose my train of thought. With The Bible Study App, all of the footnotes are linked. Just tap on the footnote, read it, and go back to where you were without losing your place.
4. Integrated Dictionary (iOS Extra)
In iPhone/iPad app, you also have an additional option. Tap and hold a word in the Bible text and an option menu bar will pop up. From here you get the options to Copy, Highlight, Note, Bookmark, Share, Define, Lookup and More.
If you tap "Define" you will get the integrated iOS dictionary pop-up. This is extremely helpful when you run across a word in the NICOT/NICNT or even the Bible text that you do not readily know.
5. Look at One Verse (iOS Extra)
An additional iOS option is looking up additional information on just one verse. Tap and hold a word in the Bible text and an option menu bar will pop up. From here you get the options to Tap and hold on a verse number and an option menu bar will pop up. From here you get the options Copy, Highlight, add a Note, Bookmark, Share, Guide, and More..
If you tap the "Guide" button you'll get "hits" from your resources on just that specific verse. From here you can follow the same steps as you would in the resource guide option above. You can even choose to open the NICOT/NICNT in the main or split window.
This is helpful if you want to read through your Bible "full screen" and refer to the NICOT/NICNT when you want to see what it says about a particular verse.
As you can see, the NICOT/NICNT within The Bible Study App gives you the best in scholarly work, while saving you valuable study time and tremendous effort.
My Favorite Three Bible Study methods1
From Guest Blogger: Andy Deane, author of Learn to Study the Bible
Studying the Scriptures is supposed to be exciting! That's why King David tells us in Psalm 119:103: "How sweet are your words to my taste, sweeter than honey to my mouth!" Like me, I hope that you have found this verse to be true. Maybe, like me, you have also discovered that having plain honey multiple times a day can get repetitive. I'm not saying that God's word becomes boring over time. Actually, it's quite the opposite. I love that God's word is so diverse and continues to excite and bless the reader taste after taste. The Scriptures are not to blame if we lose our taste for them. The Bible is designed to be a continual blessing to the believer. But believers may sometimes need to mix up how they study the Scriptures to make sure to avoid the ruts that their method of extracting the honey can bring about. Sometimes when we use the same approach to studying each and every day, the approach can become repetitive. It's not God's word that needs new spice, it's the method of study that needs variety. That is why I wrote Learn to Study the Bible. With forty different ways to study the Scriptures, you always have a fresh way to prepare and digest your daily manna from heaven.
I'd like to share briefly the three ways that I personally enjoy studying the Bible.
To start, please consider buying a new Bible to use with this method, or at least a new color highlighter. Begin by reading one to four chapters of the Bible a day. Remember that reading one chapter a day will get you through the entire New Testament in a year with one hundred make up days for when you miss a day of reading. Four chapters a day will get you through the entire Bible in a year in less than 25 minutes of reading time. The key is that each day you underline only one favorite verse from each chapter you read. That's easy when you are in Leviticus but extremely difficult when you are in Matthew! After you are finished reading the entire book, go back and circle one favorite verse from the verses you underlined in the whole book. Write a few sentences in your Bible about why that is your favorite verse for that book. After you've read the whole Bible, you'll have 1,189 favorite verses underlined (one from each chapter) and 66 all-time favorite verses (one from each book). Think about how valuable that Bible will be to you because of this investment. As you turn to any page in Scripture you will remember which verse spoke to your heart the most. You might even consider putting the date next to the verses you choose to connect them to your daily journal to enhance the experience even more. These will become the verses you choose to memorize since they have meaning to you. It's a simple but fruitful and personal way to study the Bible.
Not every student of God's word is going to have the blessing of learning the original biblical languages. But that doesn't mean that we can't stand on the shoulders of scholars who spend their lives steeped in these languages, and this is the beauty of the Translation Comparison Bible Study Method. Every translation of the Bible represents the understanding and choice of dozens of skilled language scholars. When you see a unique word in a verse, you can be sure an important decision was made to choose that word over another word. This method helps you notice the different word selections that scholars made when creating English translations of the Bible. You'll also learn how to prayerfully meditate on why these words were chosen over other words and how that can impact your understanding of the text. Learn how to compare Bible translations for spiritual growth and profit by reading a chapter from the book for free by visiting this link: http://www.scribd.com/doc/167983176/Translation-Comparison-Method.
Sometimes our biggest problem is rushing our reading of a passage of Scripture. If we simply slow down and chew on God's word then we would be blessed by it. Slowing down is exactly what the Daily Bread Bible Study Method will force you to do. With this method, you'll learn techniques that invite you to take the time to make sure you're squeezing all the meaning you can out of the Scriptures. If you've struggled with understanding what your pastor means when he tells you to "meditate on God's word," then this method is for you. Read another free chapter from the book by visiting http://www.scribd.com/doc/16565590/The-Daily-Bread-Bible-Study-Method.
I hope these three Bible study methods that I use personally will bless you as you experiment with them. Remember that however you mix it up, keep it exciting—don't let your Bible study time become dull or a duty. I hope you'll enjoy and use one of these methods, but don't forget that you should never become devoted to the method—only to the Savior to whom the methods lead!

Bible Study Tips & Resources6
I first began teaching and preaching in my local church at age 14. Before my first sermon, my Dad handed me my first Strong's Concordance and a brand new Bible. Following his lead, I would read through a passage of Scripture and look up every word in the Strong's Concordance that I didn't understand or that caught my attention.
I soon learned that I needed a more formalized approach to my Bible study. Here are some basic steps and tools that help me focus on Bible Study and get me back on track to studying God's Word.
Prepare yourself through Prayer
"All our study is futile without the work of God overcoming our blindness and hardheartedness." – John Piper, Martin Luther Lessons from His Life and Labor
There is no substitute for prayer when reading and studying the Bible. Prayer takes the attention off of what we can do and puts the attention instead on what God can do in and through us. Bible study is a spiritual act of worship (Romans 12:1) in which we present our best to God. We have to remember that this is not just a book we're reading. We need prepare our hearts and minds for Bible study.
Read the Scripture for yourself
Read and re-read the passage you're studying. Get familiar with the flow of the passage. If there are terms that you don't know, look them up in a simple dictionary.
Ask yourself these Questions
- Observe – What does the text say?
- Interpret – What does the text mean?
- Apply – How does it apply to me today?
Asking these questions will keep you focused on the study at hand. These questions are also helpful when preparing, guiding, and leading discussions for small group and Sunday school Bible studies.
Read and Research
1. Cross References
After you've thoroughly read the scriptures for yourself, read all of the related verses for that text. The Bible Study App has some great resources to help you find all of the cross references. These are helpful because they will save you tons of time and effort just looking up the references.
2. Bible Concordances
Concordances are great tools that give you a list of verses that contain that root word in the Bible. However, be careful that you do not JUST use a concordance in your preparation. Concordances are a great place to BEGIN, but are never the END of your Bible Study.
With that "don't try this at home" disclaimer, I do suggest using a digital Bible with Strong's numbers integrated into the text for your Bible study.
3. Bible Dictionaries
Dictionaries give you more explanation and meaning for specific words. They also help us to keep our Bible Study on track.
- Easton's Bible Dictionary (Free Olive Tree Resource)
- Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary (Free Olive Tree Resource)
- Vine's Complete Expository Dictionary of Old and New Testament Words
4.Bible Study Notes
There are multiple Bibles that have study notes written by scholars and trusted authors that will assist you in better understanding the Bible. I recommend choosing one that corresponds to your preferred translation (KJV, ESV, NIV, NLT, etc.)
5. Bible Commentaries
After you've studied the Bible for yourself, it is often helpful to read trusted Bible scholars to see how they explain the text you are reading.
- Jamieson, Fausset, and Brown Commentary (Free Olive Tree Resource)
- Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Whole Bible (Free Olive Tree Resource)
- The Bible Knowledge Commentary
- Word Biblical Commentary (WBC)
6. A Basic and Solid Library
To help you get started, Olive Tree has bundled collections of resources to help you dig deeper into God's word. These bundles give you the basic tools that you need like the study tools mentioned above. All of these wonderful resources are designed to be integrated into the Resource Guide within The Bible Study App for a seamless and easy-to-use Bible study experience.
- Read & Study Collection
- Bible Study Toolkit
- Bible Study Essentials (Bible Translation of your choice, Dictionary, Cross-Reference and Maps)
- Bible Study Standard (Essentials bundle, plus Strong's Tagged Bible, Essential Bible Companion, Dictionary of Biblical Imagery and Expanded Maps)
- Bible Study Expanded (Standard bundle, plus Key Word Commentary, Expository Dictionary, Concordance, and even more Maps)
- Bible Study Premier (Expanded bundle, plus more Commentaries, Bible Encyclopedia, more Cross-references and a Bible Atlas)
Bible Study Bundles are available in the following Bible translations: NIV, HCSB, NKJV, and NRSV
7. How to Study Resources
Lastly, here are some useful resources to further your Bible Study methods:
- Learn to Study the Bible by Andy Deane
- The New How to Study Your Bible by David Arthur, Kay Arthur and Pete De Lacy
- How to Study the Bible by Rose Publishing
- Rick Warren's Bible Study Methods by Rick Warren
- How to Read the Bible for All Its Worth by Gordon D. Fee and Douglas Stuart
Using these simple methods and tools will deepen your Bible Study and further prepare you to present God's word (2 Timothy 2:15).

Three Strong's Bibles Quick Tips3
The Strong's Concordance matches every word in the King James Bible to the word it came from in the original Hebrew, Aramaic or Greek. Olive Tree's Bible Study App has integrated Strong's numbers to work with the ESV, KJV, HCSB, NKJV, NASB, and the Almeida Revista e Atualizada (RA) translations of the Bible.
I recently found the integrated Strong's function particularly helpful when reading John 21:5 Jesus said to them, "Children, do you have any fish?" Since I normally read the NIV in my devotional time, I was puzzled by the use of the word "children" in this passage as the NIV Translation uses the word "Friends". So, I wanted to do a quick study to find out more.
Here's three quick tips that helped me discover more about the translation behind this word. (Screenshots are taken with the ESV with Strong's on an iPad, but will work with any of the Translations mentioned above and all supported devices.)
Strong's Pop-Ups
Open the your Bible with Strong's and you'll see that some words are a slightly different color. Tapping or clicking on those words will pop-up the Strong's information for that word. These pop-ups contain a wealth of information, including:
- The Strong's number (beginning with either a "g" or an "h") for that word.
- A short definition for that word.
- An outlined list of the different meanings for that word in the original language.
- Often you will also find that another Strong's number is included as a link. These can be similar words that you can compare or other words from which your current word selection derives its meaning.
You can also go to your settings in the The Bible Study App and turn on the setting to show Strong's Numbers (iOS = Settings – Advanced Settings – Text Layout / Display; for Android = Settings – Other Settings). The numbers for the words will appear in the Bible text. Tapping on the number will also bring up the Strong's pop-up.
Look-Up Options
At the bottom of the Strong's pop-up, there are two buttons that perform "look-ups" or searches based on the Strong's number or the word in its original language.
Look-up by Strong's Number
The first button contains the Strong's number for your word. Clicking or tapping on this button will perform a search in your library for articles containing this Strong's number.
Look-up by Original Language
The second button contains the word in its original language. Clicking or tapping on this word will perform a search in your library for articles about the word in its original language.
Using the Search Function
Strong's tagged Bibles can quickly create a very accurate concordance. By entering the Strong's number into the search bar at the top right of the The Bible Study App, you can easily find all of the places within the Bible where that specific word is used. This is different than searching for the word in its English form.
Secondly, when you have a Strong's pop-up open, you can select the word as it appears in its original language form, like αγάπη, and copy and paste it into your search bar to find all of the places in the Greek text were this Greek word appears.
I also love using the Strong's Bibles on my iPhone. It's a fantastic resource when I'm at church, small group, or on the go.
Bibles tagged with Strong's Numbers are excellent resources for diving deeper into the biblical text. It offers insight into the original languages of Scripture without requiring you to have any formal training in Greek or Hebrew. Be sure to check out these great resources on sale this week.

Technical Programs ACADEMIC Assessment
The focus of program assessment is on measuring and improving student learning. Members of the program faculty develop Academic Assessment Plans and annually assess student learning outcomes, collect, analyze, and interpret assessment data, and use these results to modify the programs when appropriate. The assessment plan contains these components:
Outcomes: The majority of the outcomes assessed should be Student Learning Outcomes. SLO's represent the consensus of the program faculty on what students should know and be able to do at the end of their program.
Method: This section describes the assessment methods and procedures used to measure student learning in the program.
Expected Results: This is how success will be defined on the outcomes.
Results: The results are the data gathered from the methods employed.
Use of Results/Program Changes: This provides a description of the actions that were taken in response to the assessment results to help students reach the defined outcomes.
Curriculum Map: The curriculum map describes where and in which courses the program's student learning outcomes are introduced, reinforced, and assessed.
Technical Program Assessment Process:
Assessment Oversight- Each dean has appointed a faculty member who has primary responsibility for the development & implementation of the assessment plan.
Assessment Process and Reporting Calendar
Guidelines for Developing & Implementing Assessment Plans
Submission- The new SLO planning system is housed within the College Planning System. It is a web-based system that helps manage accreditation, assessment, planning, and quality improvement processes at HCC. All technical program academic assessment plans are contained in the system, with faculty being able to edit and update their assessment plans annually.
SLO Planning System Tutorial **Formal Training will be done at each campus

I'm about to evaluate some Core Routers (Catalyst/Passport class) so
my question is, does anyone know of a tool/script or a method to
measure failover times of a "Ethernet trunk", "NIC teaming", "port
teaming", "port trunking", "EtherChannel", "Multi-Link Trunking (MLT)"
... whatever you want to call it.
Googling for "measuring link failover time" or something like that
didnt bring up much good.
Thanks in advance!

I view the world of aging and longevity science as divided into three broad classes of research and researchers - something that will already be apparent to regular readers, but which I don't recall having outlined explicitly. This crude model of the research community informs the ways in which I read research and evaluate the state of progress towards meaningful goals: both extension of healthy human life, and - more importantly - forms of medicine capable of repair and reversal of aging.

Never check your exes profile 'just to see how they're doing without you'. It's always to see if they're just as miserable as you. And they never are, which always makes you feel horrible. And you know this before you even type their name. Just don't do it, and let them go.

If you go to a concert and think its appropriate to elbow and punch people in the face you're a fucking tool and I hope you get hit by a bus.
"If you can't handle the pit, stay home" is not a fucking excuse. Kids pay up to 300 dollars to see their favorite bands live, not to go home with a broken jaw or swollen eye. Grow the fuck up.

I saw this cup in World Market today..
So I bought it.

A friend of ours, will be joining Heavy Anchors, as our new guitarist. You may refer to him as 'Snapbacks'.
My sheets smell like you
Lingering with occurrences between them
When will we come back together
Between them once again
For now, all I have is the scent
The scent of you
And what happened with you
I'd never been so scared in my life
Yet pleasure triumphs over pain
Now it's nothing but a memory
On going and ever lasting
Laughter is an echo in the walls
Your breath is like wind in my hair
But my fears are now gone
And all I have is you
Images of another soul are nonexistent
You've plagued my mind
You've invaded my heart
New doors have opened
Bright lights have burned
Old doors shut quietly, suspended on rusty hinges
Bright lights faded and dimmed into a soft flicker
Break it apart
Break it into pieces
You'll feel good now
And regret it later
And regret it forever.
Just because you're perfect doesn't mean you wont have your flaws.
I can feel you snaking across my ribs.
Here comes the truth that saw us blind.
Flawed by images of false beauty.
Your ribcage expands with every breath you take.
You lay across me until my body goes numb.
And I realize. I'm in love.
Only when we sleep do our problems dissolve.
Give and get
Take and receive.
Your humbling ways
Are so misleading.
And in the depths of your eyes
I can see your demise
And all the secrets you hold
The fire inside your soul
Is apparent in your bones
I know how it feels to love
And I know how it feels to trust
But you broke down those walls
And you took us all down
Was it necessary to break us apart
Although you meant to do much worse
You didn't have rip us apart
I hope it brightens your day
To know you ruined ours.

Easy Upgrades: 11 Must-Haves Under $100
Fill out your wardrobe with these sub-Benjamin buys from the January issue of GQ
1. Swims galoshes
This time of year, one nasty puddle can send your dress shoes to a soggy grave. But now, you can fight back. At its Milan fashion show, Prada unveiled shoes that looked like they had old-school galoshes on them. Turns out the shoes are dipped in rubber—an innovation in the war on winter. But if you're looking to get in on the most practical style of the season for a little less coin, Swims makes rubbers in zippy colors that snap onto your brogues and don't cost a lot of bucks.

Just face the facts, you're broke.
If you don't have a job, then start looking heavily.
If you are in school, talk to the financial aid office and look through some options.
Prioritize your money. Understand your bills and food have to come firts.
Lastly, grow some fucking balls and ask for help. Even though it's embarrassing, surely a roommate will pitch in, parents will help, grandparents, a friend. SOMEBODY will help.
So do something about it.
This isn't my problem, but it sure doesn't affect me.
You are threatened to be evicted, because you don't pay your rent, That is because you would prefer to spend your money on less important things, such as marijuana and don't have your priorities straight.
However, the key word is THREATENED to be evicted. You are actually not evicted. Instead, you move out thinking that if you just left the house you wouldn't have to pay rent.
Well when the rest of your roommates find out that you haven't been paying rent and the landlords come knocking asking what the hell is going on, because you did not communicate thoroughly with them or even asked for help, you sure in shit don't just stop paying rent.
You sure don't pin the thousands of dollars upon the rest of your roommates to pay for. Instead, you go to the fucking bank, get a loan for the back rent and the remainder rent, set up a payment plan and have a parent cosign for you.
Otherwise, the situation will just get worse and eventually when the rest of the roommates become homeless and even further enraged with fury, they will get a lawyer and discuss some options.
Just take a simple step and go to the bank. Talk to somebody. Ask for help, because that is something you didn't do and got everyone into a situation.
god bless the man who saved this dog & god bless this amazing little warrior! it hurts to see the first images but it makes me so happy to see the last one! such a strong little pup. there's a special place in hell for whoever left the dog in those conditions.
Awww :')

A white woman gives her "opinion" on why Black men prefer white women over Black. An educated black man responds to her comments! This is up lifting,remember we are ROYALTY! just had to post this…..
This is the dumbest article I ever read. Both of them are idiots. The black man is just as bad as the white woman when it comes to these comments. I'm going to say 75% of the time, people date other's, because they like them. Not for their race. I think they've forgotten what love is about.
My mother is white and she is very successful and a go getter. I think if someone described her as "easy" or "docile," I'd punch them in the face.
"I want to be a princess hairdresser."
"What's going to be the hardest part about being a princess hairdresser?"
"Cutting Rapunzel's hair."
Stay away. Stay far away. Much Love - Virgin Mobile
This was my comment. "I'm supportive of these people, because at least there is that one month that they really do care and want to make a change in their life. Some people even decide to stick it out. What I think is not fair is that posts like this cause discomfort in going to the gym, because it judges people. We spend so long saying people need to lose weight and get healthy, but when they start to try something, they get made fun of."
Someone told me to go eat a doughnout and instead of getting hostile, I just flirted and said "as long as you feed it to me sugar."
Hostility hurts. Flirting kills.

I don't know why I find this so funny.

A hip and cynical young Seattle magazine employee and his two slave-interns travel to a small coastal Washington state town to follow up on an unusual classified ad. They discover a mysterious, paranoid loner looking for a time-travel partner--and also learn something about themselves and how to live truly in the here-and-now. Sweet, funny, and charming with both low-key suspense and romance, plus an engaging cast portraying three-dimensional characters that will win you over even when they are being annoying.
Yes, you should see "The Artist" because it won the Academy Award but, more importantly, you should see this film because it's so much FUN!!! The storytelling is brilliant and the characters are remarkably robust considering this is a silent film (well, for the most part). Jean Dujardin plays George Valentin, a silent movie superstar. Along come "talkies" and George denounces them as a fad. For newcomer Peppy Miller, the talkies present an opportunity to catapult her to stardom. "The Artist" tells the story of their interlinked destinies. Pay particular atte
I admit I'm a sucker for BBC period costume dramas...but this is a really good one! Set in 1902, the ten-episode series revolves around three young women working as nannies in London's upper-crust Berkeley Square neighborhood. It's an "Upstairs, Downstairs" story that has it all: illegitimate babies, adorable children, feisty women, dashing and dangerous bounders, adultery, manslaughter, crime, romance, and great costumes. How much more entertaining does it get?
This movie made me cry - several times, big sloppy tears down my cheeks. Too sentimental? Probably - both the movie and the critic. It's the story of mentally challenged Sam's (Sean Penn) efforts to keep custody of daughter Lucy (Dakota Fanning - a most powerful actress for one so young) in a world that is tough on everyone, even accomplice Michelle Pfeiffer, the attorney whose "perfect life" is not so rosy. It can leave you wondering why life has to be so hard, and why people have to be so mean, but then Lucy reminds us of the subtitle. If you love the Beatles, y
Barrister Steven Vey has it all: successful career, plenty of cash, beautiful wife, not to mention a recent appointment as Britain's youngest-ever judge. Then one night he drinks too much and rapes his pretty new secretary and faces the loss of everything if he doesn't find a way to shut her up. Michael Kitchen is superb as Vey in this suspenseful two-part psychological thriller from Britain's Central Television.
Twisty, suspenseful, sexy, and Italian--what more could you want in a psychological thriller? This one begins with a hotel chambermaid and a retired cop meeting at a speed dating event. Suddenly, an armed robbery alters the course of their budding relationship and from then on, the movie keeps you guessing about who is double-crossing who. Compelling performances by the two principals, Filippo Timi and Ksenia Rappoport.
This period drama has everything a miniseries-loving anglophile could want: strong acting and great costumes plus a rich cast of characters suffering from a variety of character flaws including arrogance, silliness, cluelessness, greed and snobbery. Very high class soap opera!
What do get when you combine the pace of Eraserhead with violence that would make Quentin Tarantino cover his eyes: Drive. Ryan Gosling transmits his performance with as few words as possible. When asked what he does, he says, "I drive". He's a mechanic who does a little stunt driving for the movies and a little getaway driving for criminals on the side. His life gets much more complicated when a comely neighbor moves into his apartment building and his effort to help her goes violently astray.
This is the best film adaptation of Jane Austen's 1811 novel, in my opinion. Because it is 170+ minutes long, the three-part series has plenty of time to tell the story of sisters Elinor (the one with sense) and Marianne (the one with sensibility) and their romantic trials and tribulations.
Another entertaining British crime series, this one set in Northumberland in 1964. George Gently is the detective inspector, lately from a bigger-time city career, and John Bacchus is his arrogant, ambitious and inexperienced sergeant. The series takes place during a period of changing social attitudes and values, and the story lines incorporate themes like racism, women's liberation, homophobia and child sexual abuse. Based on the Inspector Gently novels by Alan Hunter (he published nearly one per year from 1955 to 1998!).

Talk about some big plans for the weekend.
Buffalo Mayor Byron Brown is heading to the White House to watch the Super Bowl with the President Obama.
"I see it as an honor not only just for me but for the entire community," Brown said.
Mayor Brown got a call from the White House inviting him. Deputy Mayor Steve Casey will be heading to Washington with the Mayor as his guest. They are two of about 100 people attending the President's Super Bowl Party.
Mayor Brown said they planned to take a special Buffalo treat for the festivities but the secret service said no way.
"Initially I wanted to bring some of the best buffalo chicken wings from La Nova's Pizza but unfortunately the secret service didn't allow it because of security reasons," Brown said.
But it won't be all fun and games for the Mayor. He will be meeting with members of the White House staff to discuss issues facing the Queen City.
"We've been talking to White House staff about a number of projects including the Statler Towers project and getting federal funds for youth employment opportunities, " Brown said.
But who will the Mayor cheer for on the big day?
"Certainly want to see the Packers win the Super Bowl because of James Starks a Niagara Falls native and a graduate of University at Buffalo. He's the pride and joy of Niagara Falls and this entire region," Brown said.

huge and a great value for the money. Saw the room at the pensiunea and
it looked nice too, but we had been traveling a while and really wanted
the space in the bigger hotel. The secure parking lot was great peace of
mind as well. - Anonymous
The stuff was really amazing, friendly and responsive. They met us at
the railway station the day we arrived and took to the hotel. One day
the owner of the hotel accidentally met me and my friend in the city
looking for a taxi and offered a ride. The rooms were always kept clean
and tidy. The breakfast was delicious and cheap. Actually, the only
place I've ever been to where I liked breakfast. It was a large
plate with fried eggs, sausages, salami and fresh vegetables, plus tea,
bread, butter - Anonymous

"Despite spending billions of dollars on sales training, reps forget 70% of all content within 1 week of training, and 90% within 30 days."- The Sales Leadership Council
"Practice isn't the thing you do once you're good. It's the thing you do that makes you good." - Malcolm Gladwell
Watch video-based selling scenarios from your organization's best reps and subject matter experts. See how the best present and communicate with the market.
Internalize by recording your own selling scenarios in a safe and confident online environment.
Submit a selling scenario to managers and coaches for asynchronous review and feedback. The best scenarios are made public, creating a library of tribal knowledge - By Reps. For Reps.
Make adjustments when you receive scorecard-based coaching. Monitor the user dashboard for progress updates as you work toward mastery.
Sales organizations begin every year with a big quota to make. Yet, with nearly a third of new hires failing to meet first year quota expectations, new reps can make or break the number. CommercialTribe's onboarding solution can engage new hires prior to their start date and be a go-to resource throughout their onboarding curriculum and overall tenure with the organization.
Poor manager quality is cited as the leading root cause for rep turnover. Unfortunately, this is a result of little to no time invested in coaching. CommercialTribe enables reps and managers to learn and coach asynchronously. Customizable scorecards, ratings, and feedback frames enable coaching and visibility across an enterprise.
No surprise: there is a high correlation between reps who are certified on specific products and services and their goal attainment. CommercialTribe's highly configurable and easy-to-administer certification solution allows reps to watch best practice behaviors, practice in safe, confident environments, and submit for certification.
Top performing reps are arguably the busiest in your company. As valuable as their best practice knowledge is, their ability to share what they know is typically limited to sales meetings, webinars, and unfortunately, the watercooler. With CommercialTribe's enterprise contributor solution, high performing reps can create their own "subscription channels" that other reps can follow to tap into win/loss stories, strategies to maximize comp plans, and lessons on product and service positioning. If enabled, reps can be compensated for creating content based on their number of followers.
More often than not, key commercial messages are created in functional silos and handed off to sales absent meaningful market feedback or collaboration. The message development solution within CommercialTribe allows for cross-functional teams to collaborate, iterate, and refine key messages until they're market ready.
