Personality conflicts cause many problems in our lives. We don't get along with some people and when relationships are bad, life stinks. It is very important that we learn to get along with others.
James says in 3:18, "Peacemakers who sow in peace raise a harvest of righteousness." We sow seeds every day in our relationships and one day there will be a harvest. What kind of harvest will it be? It all depends on the seeds we have sown. The question then becomes: How can I plant seeds of peace and have peaceful relationships?
When there is moral rot within a nation, its government topples easily. But with wise and knowledgeable leaders, there is stability. Proverbs: 28:2

Controlling the tongue was our subject last week. James 3:1-12 gives three reasons for controlling the tongue: my tongue directs where I go, it can destroy what I have and it shows who I am inside.
Our problem is not with our mouth but with the heart. The tongue lets us know what is in the heart. "For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks" (Matthew 12:34).

Union Separate Baptist holds homecoming
Revelation 13:1-10 discusses the beast from the sea.
The beast rising up out of the sea is a mirror-image of the dragon, called forth from the peoples of the world (17:15) as an ally in his war against the saints.
The crowns are the 10 horns (political power) not on the seven heads (the source of authority) which is the dragon who delegates authority to the beast. The beast is the incarnation of political-social evil and is a composite of Daniel's pictures of past political powers (see Daniel 7:7).
We love to talk. Many radio stations have a 24/7 talk format. Everybody seems to have something to say.
I read that the average American has 30 conversations a day. If you take our conversations for a year they would fill 123 books of 400 pages each or 52,800 pages per year. The average man speaks 20,000 words a day, while a woman speaks 30,000 words a day. Talking that much – there is no wonder our mouths get us into trouble.

I am sure I only love this statue because it is so insanely ridiculous. The size of it, the cost of it, the very idea of it...all ridiculous. And yet...if had that $8,499 to just toss away, it would look stunning in my back yard. $8,499 at Design Toscano, of course.

Vasudev, Sadhguru Jaggi: Inner Management v1.0 17 Oct 2012
Author info:
Yogi, mystic and visionary, Sadhguru is a spiritual master with a difference. Probing, passionate and provocative, insightful, logical and unfailingly witty, Sadhguru's talks have earned him the reputation of a speaker and opinion-maker of international renown. Sadhguru is also the founder of Isha Foundation, a non-profit organization which has been dedicated to the wellbeing of the individual and the world for the past three decades. Summary: In the Presence of the Master is a series of stirring and insightful discourses given by Sadhguru. In his willingness to share, Sadhguru offers glimpses of the profound wisdom that is otherwise accessible to enlightened beings only. In modern societies, enhancing the quality of our life has become one of our main objectives. In this pursuit, we tend to emphasize on enhancing external situations our job, business, family and the abounding accumulation of material things; in spite of all the efforts, our personal and professional lives are too often painfully lacking happiness and fulfillment. In this volume, Sadhguru shifts our focus to the inside, pointing out a way to establish a true sense of inner peace and wellbeing by applying "Inner Management." |

There is nothing wrong with intergretion,there are many things wrong with segregation.For some,the heart is capable of LOVING only certain races and capable to detest colored faces,its unfortunate but true, racism exsists EVERYWHERE. No matter how unaware or aware you are,know that it lurks slowly behind you until the moment is right and it roves over you, prowling, like an animal in search of prey! Iam not letting it get to me, I refuse to fall hostage to such evil of this predator, and You should too!Do not deny that you are the prey,do not be frightened when you have been hunted, and Do not despair.Stand for yourself,attack and Infiltrate the heart of the prowler,and in all that, show him kindness and LOVE because such affinity and emotion is void in his heart. Teach him that although he may hate and despise you,not for any lone reason except that you simply look different from him, you will respond to him in words of compassion and LOVE,in words as sweet as honey, in words so soothing to the heart and mind, and actions demonstrating the incomprehensible and perplexity aspect of LOVE.Do NOT HATE him, for if you do, you then are nothing more than a predator hunting prey, not for any lone reason except that he looks different from you.If you hate him back, you two,the both of you, then, are indistinguishable!
Black + White =Racism, NO! it must = LOVE!

Carly Fiorina (born Cara Carleton Sneed; September 6, 1954) is an American former business executive and was the Republican nominee for the United States Senate from California in 2010. Fiorina served as chief executive officer of Hewlett-Packard from 1999 to 2005 after being an executive at AT&T and its equipment and technology spinoff, Lucent.
Fiorina was considered one of the most powerful women in business during her tenure at Lucent and Hewlett-Packard. While she was chief executive at HP, the company weathered the collapse of the dot-com bubble. In 2002, Fiorina pushed for a contentious merger with rival computer company Compaq, which made HP the world's largest personal computer manufacturer[1] but made its stock lose half of its value.[2] In 2005, Fiorina was forced to resign from HP.[3] Since then she has been described as one of the worst tech CEOs of all time.[4][5][6][7]
Fiorina served as an advisor to Republican John McCain's 2008 presidential campaign. She was the Republican nominee for the United States Senate from California in 2010, losing to incumbent Democratic Senator Barbara Boxer.[8] She is actively considering running for President of the United States in 2016.[9][10]
Early life[edit]
Fiorina was born as Cara Carleton Sneed on September 6, 1954, in Austin, Texas,[11] the daughter of Madelon Montross (née Juergens), a portrait and abstract artist, and Joseph Tyree Sneed III, a law school professor, dean, and federal judge.[12]
Education and early career[edit]
Fiorina attended Channing School in London, and later attended Charles E. Jordan High School in Durham, North Carolina, for her senior year; the family relocated frequently during this time. She received a Bachelor of Arts in philosophy and medieval history from Stanford University in 1976. During her summers, she worked at a hair salon and as a secretary for Kelly Services.[13] She attended the UCLA School of Law in 1976 but dropped out[14] after one semester and worked as a receptionist for six months at a real estate firm Marcus & Millichap, moving up to a broker position before leaving for Italy, where she taught English.[15] Fiorina received a Master of Business Administration in marketing from the Robert H. Smith School of Business at the University of Maryland, College Park in 1980. She received a Master of Science in management from the MIT Sloan School of Management under the Sloan Fellows program in 1989.
AT&T and Lucent[edit]
She joined AT&T in 1980 as a management trainee and rose to become a senior vice president overseeing the company's hardware and systems division. In 1995, Fiorina led corporate operations for the spinoff from AT&T of Lucent, reporting to Lucent chief executive Henry B. Schacht;[16] she played a key role in planning and implementing the 1996 initial public offering of stock and company launch strategy.[17][18] Later in 1996, Fiorina was appointed president of Lucent's consumer products business, reporting to Rich McGinn, president and chief operating officer.[18] In 1997, she was appointed chair of Lucent's consumer communications joint venture with Philips consumer communications.[19] Later that year, she was named group president for the global service provider business at Lucent, overseeing marketing and sales for the company's largest customer segment.[20][21]
In 1998, Fortune magazine named her the "most powerful woman in business" in its inaugural listing, and she was included in the Time 100 in 2004 and remained in the Fortune listing throughout her tenure at HP. Fiorina was #10 on the Forbes list of The World's 100 Most Powerful Women for 2004.[22][23][24][25][26][27][28]
She became regarded by many as being the first woman to head up a Fortune 20 company, and to have overcome the metaphorical "glass ceiling".[29][30][31]
In July 1999, Hewlett-Packard Company named Fiorina chief executive officer succeeding Lewis Platt and prevailing over the internal candidate Ann Livermore.[32] She became the first woman to lead a Fortune 20 company.[33] Fiorina immediately became a highly visible chief executive, and remained so throughout her tenure at the company with a vast array of engineering talent at her disposal.[34]
Fiorina proceeded to reorganize HP, and merge the part she kept with the PC maker Compaq. Although the decision to spin off the company's technical equipment division predated her arrival, one of her first major responsibilities as chief executive was overseeing the separation of the unit into the standalone Agilent Technologies. Fiorina proposed the acquisition of the technology services arm of PricewaterhouseCoopers for almost $14 billion but withdrew the bid after a lackluster reception from Wall Street. Following the collapse of the dot-com bubble, the PwC consulting arm was acquired by IBM for less than $4 billion.[35] In 2001, Fiorina was named one of the thirty most powerful women in America by Forbes magazine.[36] In early September 2001, in the wake of the bursting of the Tech Bubble, Fiorina announced the controversial merger with Compaq, a leading competitor in the industry. Fiorina fought for the merger, and it was implemented despite strong opposition from board member Walter Hewlett (the son of company co-founder William Hewlett) who claimed that the merger was being pursued by Fiorina in desperation to make a strategic decision and to give her some breathing space from Wall Street.
He launched a proxy fight against Fiorina's efforts, which failed.[37][38] The Compaq merger[39] created the world's largest personal computer manufacturer by units shipped,[40] a position the company lost in 2003 and regained in 2006.[41]
Fiorina presented herself as a realist regarding the effects of globalization. She has been a strong proponent, along with other technology executives, of the expansion of the H-1B visa program.[42] In January 2004, at a meeting to "head off rising protectionist sentiment in Congress," Fiorina said: "There is no job that is America's God-given right anymore. We have to compete for jobs as a nation."[43][44][45] While Fiorina argued that the only way to "protect U.S. high-tech jobs over the long haul was to become more competitive [in the United States]," her comments prompted "strong reactions" from some technology workers who argued that lower wages outside the United States encouraged the offshoring of American jobs.[46] Fiorina responded against protectionism in an editorial in the Wall Street Journal, writing that while "America is the most innovative country," it would not remain so if the country were to "run away from the reality of the global economy."[47]
In early January 2005, the Hewlett-Packard board of directors discussed with Fiorina a list of issues that the board had regarding the company's performance.[48] The board proposed a plan to shift her authority to HP division heads, which Fiorina resisted.[49] A week after the meeting, the confidential plan was leaked to the Wall Street Journal.[50] Less than a month later, the board brought back Tom Perkins and forced Fiorina to resign as chair and chief executive officer of the company.[51] The company's stock jumped on news of Fiorina's departure.[52] Under the company's agreement with Fiorina, which was characterized as a golden parachute by Meredith Vieira[53] and TIME magazine[54] and Yahoo![55] she was paid slightly more than $20 million in severance.[56]
Fiorina's tenure at HP has been both criticised and defended. In 2008, InfoWorld grouped her with a list of products and ideas as flops, declaring her tenure as CEO of HP to be the 6th worst tech flop of all-time and characterizing her as the "anti-Steve Jobs" for reversing the goodwill of American engineers and for alienating existing customers.[57] In 2008, Loren Steffy of The New York Times suggested that the EDS acquisition well after Fiorina's tenure was evidence that her actions as CEO were justified.[58] Fiorina has often been ranked as one of the worst tech CEOs of all time.[4][5][6][7]
After HP[edit]
After resigning from HP, Fiorina was named to several board memberships. She was named to the boards of directors at Revolution Health Group[59] and computer security company Cybertrust.[60] The following year, she became a member of the board of directors for chip maker Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company.[61] She joined the board of trustees of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the Foundation Board of the World Economic Forum. She is an Honorary Fellow of the London Business School.[62][63][64][65] In July 2012, Governor Bob McDonnell of Virginia appointed her to the James Madison University Board of Visitors.[66]
In April 2012, Fiorina became chair of Good360, a nonprofit organization in Alexandria, Virginia that helps companies donate excess merchandise to charities.[67]
Media career[edit]
Fiorina received significant media exposure before and during her tenure at HP, speaking at many business conferences and appearing on the cover of numerous business magazines. In the years since leaving HP, Fiorina has maintained her visibility in the media. In a commencement address in May 2005, Fiorina said about her tenure at Hewlett-Packard:
The worst thing I could have imagined happened. I lost my job in the most public way possible, and the press had a field day with it all over the world. And guess what? I'm still here. I am at peace and my soul is intact.[68]
During an interview with Charlie Rose, Fiorina said she believed that her leadership was strong during her tenure with Hewlett-Packard, and that the Compaq merger was a critical step for the company, although the merger was misunderstood by the board of directors.[69] In October 2006, Fiorina released an autobiography, Tough Choices, about her career and her views on such issues as what constitutes a leader, how women can thrive in business, and the role technology will continue to play in reshaping the world. Fiorina signed on with the Fox Business Network to become a business commentator on the network.[70] She is Chair and CEO of Carly Fiorina Enterprises where, according to her political campaign Facebook page, she is "bringing her unique perspective and experience to bear on the challenging issues of our world, championing economic growth and empowerment for a more prosperous and secure world".[71] She has appeared at many public events. She rang the opening bell of the Wall Street stock market on the official day of the HP-Compaq merger and in 2000 she was the ceremonial host opening the largest EasyInternetcafé at Times Square and the opening of the Epcot ride Mission: SPACE.[72] In 2004, Fiorina was a member of the President's Commission on Implementation of United States Space Exploration Policy, which produced a report for George W. Bush. She has appeared many times on TV such as in 2007 on Real Time with Bill Maher.
Fiorina has and continues to be involved with many business leadership activities including:
- Leadership summits run by Bill Hybels[73]
- Business Executives for National Security[74]
- The Wall Street Journal's D Conference (All Things Digital) in Carlsbad, California[75]
- Cyberposium[76]
- Lead21[77]
- Texas Conference for Women[78]
- Texas Monthly Talks[79]
- The Women's Conference[80]
- Willow Creek Association[81]
- Willow Creek Community Church[82]
In 2008, Fiorina worked for Senator John McCain's presidential campaign. In early 2008, Fiorina was referred to in media sources as a potential vice presidential candidate,[83][84] and The New York Times noted that while she didn't want to run, she is an executive who could possibly become a candidate for President.[85] On March 7, 2008, Fiorina was named fundraising chair for the Republican National Committee's "Victory" initiative. She was also a "point person" for the McCain campaign on issues related to business and economic affairs.[86] Fiorina's severance package from Hewlett-Packard in 2005, was viewed by some as a political liability during the campaign.[87][88][89]
On September 3, 2008, Fiorina addressed the Republican National Convention. Earlier that day, she defended the selection of Sarah Palin as McCain's running mate and said that Palin was being subjected to sexist attacks, a charge she repeated a few days later in response to one of the Saturday Night Live parodies of Sarah Palin.[90][91][92] In response to questions during a radio interview on September 15, 2008, she stated that Palin lacks the experience to run a major company like Hewlett-Packard, "[b]ut that's not what she's running for. Running a corporation is a different set of things." Fiorina later amended her comment, stating that none of the candidates on either ticket had the experience to run a major corporation.[93][94][95] After media coverage of her comments, one of her scheduled appearances on behalf of the campaign was canceled, although Fiorina continued to chair the party's fundraising committee.[96][97][98][99][100]
In August 2013, conservative Newsmax magazine named Fiorina among the "25 most influential women in the GOP".[101]
Senate candidacy[edit]
On November 4, 2009, Fiorina formally announced her candidacy in the 2010 Senate election in a bid to unseat incumbent Barbara Boxer.[102][103][104][105] Fiorina's campaign in the Republican primary for that seat received a number of endorsements,[106] including one from Sarah Palin in the form of a Facebook note.[107][108][109] Her campaign ad about Republican rival Tom Campbell featuring a "demon sheep" created international, mostly negative, publicity.[110][111] After the ad went viral, the California Democratic Party created a parody of the ad depicting Fiorina herself as a demon sheep.[112]
On June 8, 2010, Fiorina won the Republican primary election for Senate with over 50 percent of the vote, beating Campbell and State Assemblyman Chuck DeVore.
The Los Angeles Times research of public records indicated Fiorina had failed to vote in most elections. Fiorina responded: "I'm a lifelong registered Republican but I haven't always voted, and I will provide no excuse for it. You know, people die for the right to vote. And there are many, many Californians and Americans who exercise that civic duty on a regular basis. I didn't. Shame on me."[113][114]
The Los Angeles Times noted that Fiorina has conservative positions on certain social issues. She personally opposed abortion and, as a private citizen, stated that she voted for Proposition 8, which defined marriage as a union between one man and one woman, overturning a court ruling that same-sex couples had a right to marry.[115] Following an August 4, 2010, federal court ruling that Proposition 8 was unconstitutional, Fiorina expressed disagreement with the ruling, saying that California voters spoke clearly against same-sex unions when a majority approved the proposition in 2008.[116] She had stated that she opposed litmus tests for Supreme Court nominations and did not favor a federal "personhood" amendment.[117] Fiorina had called climate change a "serious issue" but claimed that the science surrounding global warming is inconclusive, saying "I think we should have the courage to examine the science on an ongoing basis."[118] In a campaign ad, Fiorina also likened Boxer's concerns over global warming to worrying about "the weather."[119] She accepted large contributions from the coal industry[120] as well as Koch Industries[121] Fiorina opposed the cap and trade legislation supported by Boxer, and thought efforts to control greenhouse gases would cost 3 million jobs and are "massively destructive".[122][123]
Sarah Palin was set to appear at a GOP fundraiser two weeks ahead of the November 2nd election, but neither Meg Whitman nor Fiorina – both big-name Republicans – planned to attend. The prediction was Palin's primary endorsement would jeopardize her general election candidacy.[124]
By October 22, when it became public that she had loaned $1 million to her campaign, Fiorina had contributed $6.5 million to her own race.[125]
Boxer won the general election, defeating Fiorina 52.2% to 42.2%.
Fiorina continues to advocate for Republican and conservative causes. On February 8, 2013, she gave a keynote address at the Ripon Society's 2013 Legislative and Communications Directors Symposium on Leadership at Mount Vernon, advocating for several issues including simplifying and reforming the federal tax code, promoting the use of business technology in government, and helping small businesses.[126]
On July 1, 2013, she spoke at the National Press Club, calling for reforms to boost small business.[127]
Political future[edit]
Fiorina has ruled out running for the U.S. Senate in 2016,[128] but has refused to rule out running for Governor of California in 2018 and for President in 2016.[129][130][131][132] In November 2014 it was reported by The Washington Post that Fiorina was "actively exploring" a run for President. Her business background and status as the only CEO and the only woman in a "sea of suited men" were mentioned as positives, with Republican strategists pointing to her disastrous 2010 Senate campaign, unpaid campaign debt and dismissal from HP as "considerable challenges".[133] On March 29, 2015, Fiorina told Fox News Sunday host Chris Wallace that there was a "higher than 90 percent" chance that she would enter the race to be the Republican Party nominee in the 2016 presidential election.[134]
Personal life[edit]
Fiorina (then Cara Carleton Sneed) married Todd Bartlem, a Stanford classmate, in June 1977. They divorced in 1984.[135] In 1985, she married AT&T executive Frank Fiorina. It was the second marriage for both. She helped to raise his two daughters Traci and Lori Ann. They attempted to have children together but, as Fiorina puts it: "That wasn't God's plan."[136][137][138] Fiorina and her husband live in Mason Neck, Virginia.
On February 20, 2009, Fiorina was diagnosed with breast cancer. She underwent a double mastectomy[139] at Stanford Hospital on March 2, 2009, followed by chemotherapy, which caused her to temporarily lose her hair, and later radiation therapy.[140] She was given "an excellent prognosis for a full recovery."[141][142] Early in her campaign for the United States Senate seat held by Barbara Boxer, Fiorina told a group of supporters: "I have to say that after chemotherapy, Barbara Boxer just isn't that scary anymore."[143]

Hello. Dont take this flash too seriously, because it's not meant to be taken seriously.
There's no preloader either.
Anyway, this is my most popular Flash on youtube, and a lot of people wanted me to post it here, so here it is.
... I dont know what else to say about it. Enjoy it if you can. It's pretty random.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Good job
where to start?...the animation was great, the voices were great, the flash was funny- all in all it's a great flash.
I like how you chose this is ness vs sonic( you usually see sonic vs shadow or mario).
I dont play any games with ness in it except for super smash bros so i wouldnt know what kinda moves he really has (like if he has PK rocket or not) so im gunna guess that you made some moves up too, and some of the moves(if im right and you did make them) are quite funny, creative, etc. (good job)
There are aLOT of other thing you did well with this too, unfortunately there are only 4000 characters remaining in this post and trust me i could NOT go through all the things you did well on this with only 4000!
The only thing i reccomend you do with this is( I know that you have this on youtube, but this is a suggestion for you for the NG users sence you cant pause on NG) try and make the in-circus scene alittle slower, i couldnt tell who all the characters were who were running around w/DK, Ness, and Sonic.
Oh that reminds me even though this is a Ness VS Sonic Flash i thought that was a REALLY cool idea putting other Nintendo characters in also- like DK, Pikachu, and Kirby!
all-in-all 10/10 and Im looking forward to your next submission!
Rated 5 / 5 stars
ness wins
i like ness i play his game along time ago and like a whole day i played it.

Once again the ŌĆ£newsŌĆØ media yawned as tens of thousands of Americans clogged the streets of Washington on January 24 for the annual ŌĆ£March for Life.ŌĆØ This yearŌĆÖs protests should have gained more attention since it came in the wake of absolutely vomit-inducing news from Philadelphia that an abortionist named Kermit Gosnell was charged by the District Attorney with a series of murders.
In a horrific 261-page report, Gosnell is accused of delivering seven babies alive and then killing them with scissors. He also allowed a woman who had survived 20 years in a refugee camp in Nepal to be incompetently overmedicated on Demerol and die at his clinic.
So much for abortion being ŌĆ£safe, legal, and rare.ŌĆØ
Associated Press reported ŌĆ£Prosecutors described the clinic as a ŌĆśhouse of horrorsŌĆÖ where Gosnell kept baby body parts on the shelves, allowed a 15-year-old high school student to perform intravenous anesthesia on patients, and had his licensed cosmetologist wife do late-term abortions.ŌĆØ
Or try the Philadelphia Inquirer: ŌĆ£Semiconscious, moaning women sat in dirty recliners and on bloodstained blankets. The air reeked of urine from the flea-infested cats permitted to roam the clinic. There was blood on the floor and cat feces on the stairs.ŌĆØ
ŌĆ£If it bleeds, it leads.ŌĆØ Remember that mantra to explain the TV networksŌĆÖ fascination with gory visuals? And yet these same networks could barely touch this story, even with its jaw-dropping ratings potential. ŌĆ£CBS Evening NewsŌĆØ had one story, NBC's "Today" "offered 50 vague words, and ABC couldnŌĆÖt be bothered. Rachel Maddow anchored an entire hour-long special on the shooting death of abortionist George Tiller, but a Nexis search finds no one on MSNBC could even whisper the name of Kermit Gosnell. (CNN and Fox News each followed the story for a few days.)
What monster would kill a child who survived an abortion? On August 5, 2002, President Bush signed the Born Alive Infants Protection Act, which stated that any baby mistakenly born (oh, the irony!) during an abortion has all the rights of any other living human being. None of the broadcast networks covered that at the time. On CNN that day, it was dismissed as ŌĆ£a really symbolic billŌĆØ (reporter Kelly Wallace), a ŌĆ£largely symbolic lawŌĆØ (anchor Miles OŌĆÖBrien) that was only aimed ŌĆ£to appease anti-abortion advocatesŌĆØ (deputy bureau chief Steve Redisch). Was it ŌĆ£symbolicŌĆØ to Dr. GosnellŌĆÖs seven infants, born alive and then stabbed in the neck with scissors?
Again, the Philadelphia Inquirer: ŌĆ£One premature infant wiggled around on a counter for 20 minutes before an untrained worker slit his neck -- after first playing with him.ŌĆØ
But the networks just donŌĆÖt bear blame for skipping past this story in 2011. This hideous creature was making headlines in 2010, too. NPR reported on Gosnell on March 30 of last year, when his medical license was revoked. Marie Smith told her story of her abortion at the filthy clinic at the age of 19, followed by a week of fever and vomiting. Smith was rushed to a local hospital, where X-rays revealed parts of her baby were still lodged in her uterus.
Somehow, the national media can find no scandal in the stateŌĆÖs abortion lobbyists ŌĆō and the alleged clinic inspectors at national groups like the National Abortion Federation ŌĆō failing to report these conditions to authorities. How can liberal media outlets who bray about Catholic bishops failing to go to the police about child abusers in the 1950s fail to muster any outrage over doctors and clinic inspectors failing to go to the police about baby killers? No state official had inspected GosnellŌĆÖs practice since 1993 ŌĆō and thatŌĆÖs not worth exposing?
NPRŌĆÖs story typically concluded with bizarre defenses of this killer and the people who failed to report on him. Abortion advocate Susan Schewel claimed ŌĆ£all we had was hearsayŌĆØ from the women who were patients, and the patients canŌĆÖt go to the authorities, apparently, because ŌĆ£the thought of talking to a state bureaucrat about something as stigmatized as an abortion, it's a low priority when youŌĆÖre trying to figure out how to pay your electric bills.ŌĆØ
HowŌĆÖs that for a putting a value on human life?
GosnellŌĆÖs then-attorney, William Brennan, insisted the doctor ŌĆ£provides family care to individuals who otherwise would have to most likely travel outside their neighborhood.ŌĆØ WouldnŌĆÖt it be better for women to travel ŌĆ£outside their neighborhoodŌĆØ rather than end up dead from an overdose? WouldnŌĆÖt it better than a filthy clinic that lets people with no medical qualifications do the anesthetics and the abortions?
Apparently, just about nobody in the national media really cares about who dies at an abortion clinic, whether itŌĆÖs a child or a mother. But kill a killer of babies ŌĆō and thatŌĆÖs headline news. ThatŌĆÖs why tens of thousands clog the streets to protest ŌĆō not just the killing, but the radio silence.

Hey, so I just got my LG Optimus F6 (Metro PCS) last night and activated it (just switched from LG Motion 4G), and I have a couple questions. 1. I cannot move the app drawer icon. It is locked on the bottom right slot of the icon dock on the home screen. The other icons can be moved, but when I hold down the icon for the App Drawer, it doesn't even go into the home screen edit mode (Where you can move apps, delete them from home screen, etc.) I was able to move it on my LG Motion, so I found this odd... Is there any way to move it? (Note: I'd prefer to keep stock launcher, if possible.) I want the two icons circled in red to be switched. 2. A really cool feature on this phone is the Wi-Fi calling, however, since the moment I turned on the phone, it has a red icon at the top that says "REG09 'Missing 911 Address'". How do I fix this? (remember I'm with Metro, not T-Mobile).
1) Try moving the contact icon - all the wway to the right. (Drop it on the app drawer icon. That may shift things over. Then you play the 15-puzzle game to make the icons go where you want.) 2) Call Metro - I believe that's part of the account provisioning.
To my knowledge.... The app drawer icon is "stuck" on the right bottom corner.... Unless you decide to download a custom launcher and 101 other things along with it.... Whats wrong with the placement of the app drawer? :smokingsomb:
I've tried moving the icons over top and to the far right, no luck. :/ And ok thank you, I will call Metro! And there's nothing 'wrong' with the placement of the App Drawer, I'd just prefer it centered, like on all the other android phone's I've seen/owned.
You can download ADW or Nova launcher to move the icons and customize the look and feel. For WiFi calling you can disable it if you're not gonna use it, but I think you can also call a number they give you when they notify you about it not having emergency calls. I decided to turn mine off just so I didn't have to mess with anything.

Estimating Causal Installed-Base Effects: A Bias-Correction Approach
New empirical models of consumer demand that incorporate social preferences, observational learning, word-of-mouth or network effects have the feature that the adoption of others in the reference group - the Òinstalled-baseÓ - has a causal effect on current adoption behavior. Estimation of such causal installed-base effects is challenging due to the potential for spurious correlation between the adoption of agents, arising from endogenous assortive matching into social groups (or homophily) and from the existence of unobservables across agents that are correlated. In the absence of experimental variation, the preferred solution is to control for these using a rich specification of fixed-effects, which is feasible with panel data. We show that fixed-effects estimators of this sort are inconsistent in the presence of installed-base effects; in our simulations, random-effects specifications perform even worse. Our analysis reveals the tension faced by the applied empiricist in this area: a rich control for unobservables increases the credibility of the reported causal effects, but the incorporation of these controls introduces biases of a new kind in this class of models. We present two solutions: an instrumental variable approach, and a new bias-correction approach, both of which deliver consistent estimates of causal installed-base effects. The bias-correction approach is tractable in this context because we are able to exploit the structure of the problem to solve analytically for the asymptotic bias of the installed-base estimator, and to incorporate it into the estimation routine. Our approach has implications for the measurement of social effects using non-experimental data, and for measuring marketing-mix effects in the presence of state-dependence in demand, more generally. Our empirical application to the adoption of the Toyota Prius Hybrid in California reveals evidence for social influence in diffusion, and demonstrates the importance of incorporating proper controls for the biases we identify.

Walterboro Drive-In – Walterboro, South Carolina
South Carolina | SC Picture Project | Colleton County Photos | Walterboro Drive-In
This old drive-in movie screen that for decades towered over Walterboro served as an iconic piece of American culture and history for 64 years. The movie screen's celebrated silhouette was designed by renowned silhouette artist Carew Rice of nearby Green Pond and painted onto wood panels by Colleton County sign painter Foch Headden. The depiction of deer, ducks, water, and a tree was installed behind the screen by 1950. It remained a beloved landmark, even as the drive-in theater closed in 1990.
As the screen sat abandoned in the years following the closing of the theater, it began to deteriorate, and panels of the silhouette began to fall. A non-profit group called "Screen Savers" formed in an attempt to save and restore the famed mural, especially since the scene was created by a noted South Carolina artist.
Despite efforts to save the screen, property owner Keith Kinard, descendant of the theater's founder Dr. E.B. Funderburke, was unable to maintain it. In May of 2014 city officials ordered the screen demolished, and in June of 2014, a work crew disassembled the screen – including the painted panels – much to the dismay of locals.
Reflections on the Walterboro Drive-In
Contributor Bill Segars shares some history about the silhouette that graced the movie screen and its artist: "I can remember seeing it when the mural was full, no missing pieces. It is a painting of a silhouette that Carew Rice did. Carew lived in Green Pond, out from Walterboro, so he would see this drive-in theater every time he went to 'Town'. Lowcountry, deer, ducks, moss in the trees, black & white; that is a typical Carew Rice silhouette. If you've ever seen one of his pieces, this is it. He obviously didn't cut this out with a little pairs of scissors, it was copied and painted on 4X8 plywood. Carew was our cousin; his grandson Clay carries on the art of silhouette cutting today. I can remember Carew coming to visit us, and he would sit at the breakfast room table and tell us children Lowcountry stories while he cut black paper with tiny little scissors. Then all of a sudden he would unfold the paper and there was a beautiful scene depicting what he was talking about. He was quite the character."

Interesting art and preservation history. Too often decay and or cost to maintain take their toll.
I remember this well from travels in the area during the mid 70's

Coroners Service
The Coroners Service of British Columbia is responsible for the investigation of all unnatural, sudden and unexpected, unexplained or unattended deaths. It makes recommendations to improve public safety and prevent death in similar circumstances.
The Coroner is responsible for ascertaining the facts surrounding a death and must determine:
- The identity of the deceased.
- How, when, where and by what means the deceased died.
The death is then classified as natural, accidental, suicide, homicide or undetermined.
The Coroners Service is a fact-finding, not a fault-finding agency that provides an independent service to the family, community, government agencies and other organizations. The Coroners Act and Regulation governs the coroner's scope of activity.
For more information about the BC Coroners Service and the duties and responsibilities of the Chief Coroner, see the About Us page.

Jem space set!!!! upgrade
Updated the Jem'Hadar Space Set Mk XII:
Dominion Synergy, 2 Piece Bonus: Increased Polaron and Power Insulators bonus by 50%. Antiproton Sweep, 3 Piece Bonus: Now disables cloaks for longer, drains more shields, and recharges faster. Anyone else freaking excited about this? |
Have they actually reduced the cost yet?
i'm wondering if the mk XI space set you can get for 200 lobi crystals is any good?
My thoughts exactly. I'd love to have this set for theme, but an increase of the Dominion synergy polaron bonus means it goes from a measly 8% to 12% or something like that. When I slotted the MK XI 2 piece recently, that meant about a 1.5% DPV gain on a DHC. While every last % of extra damage is good to have, 1.5% on DPV doesn't compete in my mind, even remotely, with alternative options. By alternative options, I generally mean Borg 2 piece, because even after the nerf no other 2 piece Eng/Deflector does anything noticeable enough to make it worth swapping out from for an Escort. (I'd love for Tet Glider to be one of those that replacements for example, but in both controlled testing and live 5v5 matches Tet Glider w/ DHCs + CRF seemed to make no significant or even remotely visible impact on damage performance). |
Borg set is great on heals..but my wingman got me on that. He is a great healer. Now with that being said I understand....but I disagree in the regards to team play. Even though borg set can help in team healing its a wasted proc if your health is full....do what your suppose to do in team..my escort is to do damage..my heals heals me. That my philosophy. 8.8 to 12 is a great upgrade. Thats more dps....plus the other things that can be granted since ur a dominion ship. |
while i agree on an escourt 2pt borg is good, i also have to agree the jem mk12 sucks. but ill also add borg 2pt on escourts is not a must.i was in a 48 min match against turks with tetglider and adapted maco sheilds. to be honest tetglider does over all perform better then borg. but need the whole team to do it. the omega engines and deflector are better over borg any day hands down. just some people love free heals.
It's less about free heals for me, and more the fact that my combat logs didn't really show any kind of significant improvement to my personal output with Tet Glider. To be honest, I'd love to find something other than the Borg 2 piece. |
It has been stated that Lobi gear is *NOT* supposed to outshine ESTF gear. It is supposed to be behind ESTF sets. The reason is anybody and their brother can get Lobi gear, but only people who can complete ESTFs can get ESTF gear.
So no, they won't be buffing the set to compete with other sets. They are only buffing it to get people to spend Lobi. If you are looking to beat the system, you aren't going to do it with the Jem set. It is still a nice set on the few ships it was designed for, but even then those shields.... ick... |

MLB makes Take the Field donation 04/15/2004 5:53 PM ETBy Barry M. Bloom / MLB.com
NEW YORK -- Major League Baseball donated $1 million on Thursday to Take the Field, a public-private partnership that is rebuilding the athletic facilities of New York City public schools. Commissioner Bud Selig made the formal presentation of a check in that amount during the commemoration of Jackie Robinson Field on the campus of Forest Hills High School, just a long fly ball away from Shea Stadium in the borough of Queens. The event preceded Jackie Robinson Day festivities prior to the Mets game against the Atlanta Braves. The ceremony took place at home plate on the baseball field, which is part of a renovated complex that includes a softball field, soccer field, running track and tennis courts. It came during the daylong festivities surrounding the anniversary of Robinson playing his first game for the Brooklyn Dodgers, breaking baseball's color line in 1947. This story was not subject to the approval of Major League Baseball or its clubs. MLB.com |

By 1926, Prohibition has given rise to an endless network of underground distilleries, speakeasies, gangsters, and corrupt cops. Joe Coughlin, the youngest son of a prominent Boston Police captain, defies his proper upbringing and his father's strict law-and-order orthodoxy. Graduating from a childhood of petty theft to a career in the pay of the city's most fearsome mobsters, Joe enjoys the riches, thrills, and notoriety of being an outlaw. But life on the dark side carries a heavy price. In a time when ruthless men of ambition armed with cash, illegal booze, and guns battle for control, no one can be trusted. For men like Joe one fate seems more likely than all others, an early death.

Now this is just plain brilliant! Jeez, album covers are missed - that large format that you could actually hang like a picture, and not a miniature - their like will never pass this way again.
