Finally, someone who understands
Intriguing find, folks. I found a link to a book review on an old universalist book, that states the following;Both Jeremiah and Job (men of God) both stated "it would have been better if they had not been born". The author states "this is not to be strictly and literally interpreted , as they were proverbial forms of speech among Jews". He further states Judas repented, that there is no scriptural evidence he is/[remained] lost - NOR, does he believe Judas hanged himself. He states the Greek word apegxato was, as he suggests, incorrectly rendered "hanged self", when it actually can mean "being suffocated or strangled with grief".More here; http://books.google.com/books?id=P4eMmQL6rU4C&pg=PA300&lpg=PA300&dq=universalism+book+son+of+perdition&source=bl&ots=iqvqENFfNT&sig=pXfmcjalZxHkNt-8cUrzfKEiohE&hl=en&ei=8BBmTLuIMIOC8gaMlLGfDQ&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=6&ved=0CCwQ6AEwBQ#v=onepage&q&f=false

Judas threw the 30 pieces of silver on the ground in the "naos"(Holy Place) part of the temple. Only a priest could enter that part of the temple. Even Jesus could only enter the courtyard because he was not from the tribe of Levi. This fact is very important.
# Judas repented and declared Jesus innocent and confessed his sin
I'm not convinced, if Judas repented he would not have hanged himself.
But given the fact that the scriptures call him a thief, he probably didn't even believe in God or Jesus.
The other disciples did not believe in Jesus so why would Judas, by that I mean that when Jesus died, they went back to business and probably lost hope that he was to rise again, given the questions they had, such as Thomas who needed to feel him before he belived. Thus their hope that he was the messiah must have been dashed, when he died.
So Judas just like any other man would have gone to the priests, those that are religious and ask of them for mercy in order to soothe his conscionce before men, had he asked of God and repented such as Peter then he would have not hanged himself.
Peter made a mistake but when he saw Jesus, he jumped out of the fishing boat and greeted him, thus proving that he had repented.
Also the place that he Judas paid 30 pieces for is known as the field of blood, and this is where Judas hanged himself falling head first, gushing belly in half.
So what is the future of Judas if he did not repent?, according to UR he will be thrown into the lake of fire, but there is another possiblity that he can repent before this time during the 1000 millenium peace.
Only a priest could enter that part of the temple. Even Jesus could only enter the courtyard because he was not from the tribe of Levi. This fact is very important.These priests are the same ones that conspired with Judas to betray Jesus, I don't think they'd be concerned that Judas was holy or not, they were part of the conspiracy and like typical villains they deny their part and put the blame solely on Judas, their pawn.
Strange conclusion...a] If he repents he could have felt so bad he killed himself.b] If he just followed orders of Jesus he still could feel so bad he killed himself.c] If he was truely possed by satan for a while he would feel very bad and killed himself.If he truly repented the lord would have forgiven him.
I don't think no man in his position would be able to handle what he did, but in my mind I think that Judas thought he killed an innocent man but not the son of God.
How did the Scriptures call Saul/Paul?Judas was a priest. His whole family was. I think the chance is good he truely believed in God.Why on 30 shekels? That was almost nothing. The high priests would surely payed more because they feared Jesus would start a riot on passover when the city was packed with pelgrims. Nah, 30 shekels was the price of a slave....The priests (not all) tend to rely more upon others who heard from God, such as Moses and Abraham, thus proving that their faith is not in God but in the arm of the flesh, mankind.They rely on Abraham that he had revelation from God, but do not actively seek God themselves, but rather make a law based system where the priests are seen as something special. In otherwords they became priests for the earthly benefits the position gives, such as status, power, pride.
The priests probably gave Judas 30 shiekels as proof that he was their slave a symbolic insult, that he being of the priestly order did not even comprehend because, as often happens, when a man is full greed as Judas was, he did not even realize this insult towards him.
Neither did they believe Mary when she told the grave was empty. But what has that to do with Judas?Not conclusive but it proves that if the others who were close to Jesus lost hope, why would Judas be any different. For none of them had the holy ghost, so it's highly unlikely that Judas belived that Jesus was the messiah, when Peter and John did not.
The priests would have not given any mercy because in their eyes Judas has done something perfect. He helped to kill a great blasphemer as instructed in the laws of Moses[/color]If he did something perfect and good in thier sight then why did they not offer him any hope or forgivness or even a congratulations. They knew they did evil and they passed the buck onto Judas by denying their involvement.
Why didn't he repent by killing himself like Judas? That would be even more convincing repentance....That would not be repentance, that would be guilt. True repentance means the forgivness of sins, thus no more condemnation for them in Christ Jesus.
Blood money. Meaning the priest Judas, nope not Rob Halford , sprinkled blood of the Lamb in the Temple......
Does that matter? Basicly you are saying everyone without a direct vision/revelation from God just follows teachings of men.But even that doesn't matter. The priests followed the laws of Moses. Perhaps they completly misunderstood those laws. But still they followed the laws.No I'm saying that they did not seek God and had no interest, what they did have interest in were man made tradditions and studying the law so that they may condemn and control others. The use the writings of Moses to condem others, they search the scriptures but refuse to come to God for life.
Judas is supposed to be a thief and betrayed out of greed. And then he asks almost nothing for his betrayal... Doesn't add up.If you want something badly you'll go get it, no matter.
QuoteJudas wanted that field called the field of blood and it seems that 30 shiekels was enough to cover the cost. The greed of Judas is what made him betray the son of man, regardless of whether it was necessary, the betrayal was made, men make excuses for sins by placing the blame on God but it's our own heart that does evil.

Repentance is acknowledging guild.... Again assuming there was anything to repent for.Of course there was a need to repent, the man spilled innocent blood, he even confessed with his own mouth to the priests.
The scripture says that none of them is lost except the son of perdition, so to me Judas did not repent and lost his position as one of the 12 apostles and now his position has been taken by someone in the book of acts.
QuoteJudas threw the 30 pieces of silver on the ground in the "naos"(Holy Place) part of the temple. Only a priest could enter that part of the temple. Even Jesus could only enter the courtyard because he was not from the tribe of Levi. This fact is very important.QuoteBlood money. Meaning the priest Judas, nope not Rob Halford , sprinkled blood of the Lamb in the Temple......That's very interesting. Was Judas a spy for the priests all along?
What is so strange about this highly placed group--they were trying to kill the Messiah from the days of Herod.Herod's massacre of baby boys was just the opening act. They didn't even want him to grow to adulthood.
And, then we see, when he begins his ministry, they are sending groups out to investigate any sighting that could possibly be the Messiah. For what purpose? Never once did they show any real interest in what he had to say--except to try to entrap him. But, they knew he would be the right age, because they knew scripture, they knew the prophecies, and they could just count forward from the time of the Magi.They knew who he was.
How did you conclude that?
Quote from: wwHow did you conclude that?Judas was a hitman? A contract killer employed by the priests? Sicarii (Latin plural of Sicarius 'dagger-men' or later contract-killer) is a term applied, in the decades immediately preceding the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 CE, (probably) to an extremist splinter group[1] of the Jewish Zealots, who attempted to expel the Romans and their partisans from Judea using concealed daggers (sicae).
"When Albinus reached the city of Jerusalem,[2] he bent every effort and made every provision to ensure peace in the land by exterminating most of the Sicarii."Josephus, Jewish Antiquities (xx.208)The Sicarii used stealth tactics to obtain their objective. Under their cloaks they concealed sicae, or small daggers, from which they received their name. At popular assemblies, particularly during the pilgrimage to the Temple Mount, they stabbed their enemies (Romans or Roman sympathizers, Herodians, and wealthy Jews comfortable with Roman rule), lamenting ostentatiously after the deed to blend into the crowd to escape detection. Literally, Sicarii meant "dagger-men".[3]
In the name of Judas Iscariot, the apostle who betrayed Jesus, the epithet "Iscariot" is read by some scholars as a Hellenized transformation, by the simplest metathesis, of sicarius. The suffix "-ote" denotes membership or belonging to - in this case to the sicarii.
Real stealth So the secret killer called himself Judas of-the-kick-Romans-out-of-Judea-group.
So your saying that Judas deliberatly asked for 30 shiekels in order to say to all," hello everybody I am a slave." Judas surely would know that 30 shiekels is a price of a slave. But my argument is that he was so full of greed, so that fact went over his head.
And with 31 he also could have bought a beer....There's allways a limit point. He wanted the field, he didnt want to blow his chance by asking for too much. Human psychology, when someone is deprived they think that, that is normal, Judas may have thought that others had the same motive as him and that is a strong possibility. How many today would think "hey look this Jesus character is going to be betrayed, so let's take advantage, this is great way to make some easy money, after all hes gonna die anyway". Quite a few I imagine
Surely Jesus was innocent. But that doesn't prove Judas did or didn't betray Jesus.Jesus said himself, that Judas betrayed him. He that betrayeth me is at hand.Betrayeth you the son of man with a kiss
Ok, I'll follow your thought of repentance. He brought back the shekels. Repentance #1. He walked away and felt so bad his throat choked (didn't hang himself) Repentance #2. Finally he took his own life. Repentance #3Only appeared repentance. I opened my bible last night and found this passageHebrews 12 :16Esau found no repentance even though he sought it carefully with tears.Esau had no repentance, so why would Judas.
There is only room for 12 disciples and one apostle took his position in the book of acts. Jesus said he is lost. When Stephen died, there wasn't set up a replacment apostle, but there was one set up for Judas, fo rhe lost his place.
and I think that it is the devil trying to annoy and shame Jesus Christ once more, by downplaying the sin of Judas and the words of Jesus that he is lost.
Was Judas replaced because of his death, or his deeds.?
So whose name will be on the twelve gates of the New Jerusalem- Judas, Matthias or Paul? My vote is Judas.
I vote for Paul, with Mathias second choice.

I purchased the Circle of Life Chain hung with 3 initial charms and a month-stone charm and I couldn't be happier.
The blend of colours allows me to wear it with a large variety of other pieces, including pairing necklaces. The entire combination is durable yet featherweight. No jingle jangling. Especially wonderful, the charms don't flip backwards and can be overlapped in whatever order I please (so I don't always favour my eldest child whose charm I placed in position 1). I do this simply by placing the charm I want on top - in other words I don't have to remove the charms or reorder them at all. AND they always lie flat (unless I'm doing exercises) and don't get bunchy or tangled. Best of all, it's so attractive.

COLUMBIA CITY — As the United States was plunging over the Fiscal Cliff, a rope was tossed as a solution. How well would it hold? This question and others were answered by Jim O'Donnell, Executive-In-Residence at Huntington University, at an economic lecture at Parkview Whitley Hospital Friday morning.
O'Donnell, who is known for adding humor and wit to his lectures, believes the forecast for the economic future, on the home front and abroad, could be pretty grim. He explained his bearish stance is based on trends and attitudes.
Economies throughout the world, including the four largest, are all languishing to some degree. What concerns O'Donnell about this fact is that it could be more than just a temporary phenmenon.
"This is not just cyclical," O'Donnell said. "The trend is not our friend."
While he did speak against the economic problems caused by entitlement spending, O'Donnell is not completely unsympathetic. Middle ground is the correct answer to this problem facing the U.S., he said.
Moving to correct these problems will not be instant or a quick-fix. O'Donnell sees some of the problems currently facing the United States and world economies as tracing back almost 80 years. Such difficulties will not be solved overnight.
While the forecast for the future was very cloudy, O'Donnell did not leave the meeting on a down note. Always known for his humor, the former accountant offered this advice to the crowd.
"I have a bowl of Prozac outside," he said with a laugh.

Creating Defender
The groundwork for building the "First Alert Defender" dual polarity radar started years ago and all revolves around WKYT's viewers. "Weather is the one thing that impacts every one, every day," said WKYT News Director Robert Thomas. "Regardless if it's clear or severe, we know that central and eastern Kentucky expects WKYT to lead the way in presenting the most accurate and dependable forecasts."
Next to WKYT's investment in new technology to become Kentucky's first local news in high definition in 2007, the "First Alert Defender" dual polarity radar is the station's second largest financial investment in its more than 50 year history.
The investment is in partnership with Kentucky's Touchstone Energy Cooperatives, which comprise 17 not-for-profit electric cooperatives serving 500,000 Kentucky homes, farms, businesses and industries across 87 counties. The cooperatives have around-the-clock, realtime weather through direct links to storm tracking from "First Alert Defender." The cooperatives also use the sponsorship as a vehicle to educate Kentuckians about the importance of energy efficiency.
The "First Alert Defender" is a development from WSI and EEC, the engineers, manufacturers and installation team behind the most advanced, dependable, field-proven Doppler radar systems in history. EEC leads the world in engineering and installing weather radar. Wherever there's a need for powerful, economical, mission-critical radar systems, more customers like the U.S. Department of Defense call on EEC than any other company.

Many government employees are planning to picket the Social Security Administration offices in Aiken today, protesting proposed cuts in the social program.
The American Federation of Government Employees and Social Security workers have planned what they call an information picket at 151 Corporate Parkway in Aiken between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m.
The AFGE and Social Security workers said in a press release Tuesday that they "are deeply worried that the proposed Fical Year 2013 federal budget for the SSA would have a devastating impact on the services provided to seniors, the disabled and the families who have lost a parent or spouse."
As negotiations on the FY 2013 budget continue in order to avoid the looming "fiscal cliff," the SSA is concerned at the amount that will be taken from their funding.
"Social Security does not account for the current deficit problem," AFGE said. "In fact, Social Security neither increases nor reduces the federal deficit since the program is entirely self-financed."
The group claims that sequestration could cut $600 million and Sen. Paul Ryan's budget or the Simpson/Bowels recommendation would cut $1 billion.
Protests like this are going on around the country, and thousands of SSA workers will be protesting.

Airbags Frequently Asked Questions
- How do airbags work?
- Airbags work by preventing your upper body from striking the steering wheel, dashboard and windshield in a head-on collision. Airbags will deploy in most frontal collisions, however front airbags will most likely not deploy in side-collisions. Airbags will NOT deploy in most side-collisions, but side airbags are not as common as front airbags. A sensor is activated when the car strikes a solid object. This sensor sends an electric current, initiating a chemical release of non-toxic nitrogen gas that causes the airbag to inflate. The deployment is instantaneous and the airbag will deflate immediately, preventing the risk of suffocation.
- I am able to adjust the position of my steering wheel. Which position is most likely to minimize injury but provide the greatest protection from an airbag?
- Tilt the steering wheel toward your breastbone. Do not tilt it toward your abdomen or toward your head and neck. Try to adjust your seat at least 10 inches away from the center of the steering wheel.
- Why is it so important not to have rear-facing child safety seats in the front seat?
- The force of nearly 3,000 pounds of pressure from a crash would thrust the child forward, crushing it between the safety seat and the back of the car seat. Never place a rear-facing child safety seat in the front seat of a vehicle equipped with a passenger-front airbag.
- I know that all children under age 12 should ride in the back seat, especially if the car is equipped with airbags. What about the elderly; are they safe with airbags?
- The elderly, like all other passengers and drivers, should be properly restrained with the seat as far back as possible and the individual's back firmly supported. All occupants should also keep arms and feet away from where the airbags will deploy.
- What is all this I hear about on-off switches for airbags?
- On-off switches should be considered only rarely. However, some circumstances warrant deactivating the airbag. For example,
deactivating the airbag would be warranted when:
- a child seat can only be placed in the front seat, (e.g., a two-seater car or truck);
- a medical or other condition outweighs the advantages of airbags, and
- when the driver is unable to sit at least 10 inches away from the steering wheel.
- How can I get an on-off switch?
- To be eligible, you must meet any one of the three requirements listed above. Applications are available by contacting the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's hotline at 1-800-424-9393.
- I have heard that some airbags smoke when they inflate. Is this a fire hazard?
- Cornstarch or powder is packed inside the airbags to lubricate them and ensure proper inflation. The "smoke" is actually the cornstarch or powder and poses no fire hazard.

Ok folks! I have the new Linux Mint 13 running on my vmware beautifully. I have yawcam set up so you can see me. I have the audio setup, although I'm going to have to use headphone/mic setup because this is the same computer i do my hardcore recording stuff on (particulars of the setup). I need to install the screencast software, which is easy. I'll be rather busy this weekend with personal things, so maybe I'll be able to record everything next week.
mouser: can I have the resulting video hosted here directly, like your software screencasts? I don't want to put it on youtube, I've been angry at them lately. And it's likely to be a long and large video file.
This will be funny...I have zero idea what I'm doing. If it's not a button and a wizard, it's going to get real comical real fast.
also, I can't promise there will be nor cursing. I'll try to keep it under control, but it is a pastime I really enjoy.

Men's Soccer Gets Six Awards In AMCC

2012 AMCC Men's Soccer All-Conference Teams
PITTSBURGH, PA – The 2012 Allegheny Mountain Collegiate Conference All-Conference soccer teams were released today and for the first time in the program's history, the Hilbert College men's soccer team was rewarded with six individual awards. Recognized this season were Jon Davison, Mike Gee, James Knapp, Jordan Lynch, Mario Williams and head coach Jeff Panik. As a team, the 2012 Hawks battled all season and finished with a 7-9-1 overall and a 5-4 AMCC mark, earning the program's first ever AMCC post-season play-off game as the number 5 seeded team.
Named to the 1st Team as well as the Newcomer of the Year was freshman Mario Williams. The Brampton, Ontario, Canada native led the Hawks in scoring, earning 25 points off a combination of nine goals and seven assists. His poise on the ball and distribution were critical in possession and in creating scoring chances for Hilbert. Williams finished the year with 64 shots on goal (30 on frame) and was ranked 3rd in the conference in shots per game and 4th in assists per game his rookie season. On October 1st, the talented midfielder was named as the AMCC Offensive Player of the Week for his seven point performance in the Hawks' 2-1 loss to eventual AMCC champions, Medaille College, and a 6-4 victory against Greensburg.
Jon Davison and Jordan Lynch head-lined the 2nd Team All-Conference squad. These two players, combined with Williams' foot, kept opposing team's defense and goalies on their toes. Their ability to create shots and the strength of their boot was impressive for the two first year players in the program.
Davison's size, pace, strength and athleticism caused defense problems. He led the Hawks with three game winning goals and was second on the team in points (18), goals scored (8) and was one of four players to start all 17 games this season. The sophomore transfer finished 10th in the conference in shots (51), and shots per game (3.00), while sitting in 8th place for goals (8) and goals per game (.47). Lynch was a major threat from either the wing or in the center of the field with his passing that created many chances that did not lead to points; he placed his hard, hooking ball in the back of the net seven times. The midfielder finished his rookie season ranked in 7th place with 56 shots of goal, and tied for 5th with shots per game (3.5) in the AMCC and carried his seven goals and two assists to 16 points for the team.
James Knapp and Michael Gee were recognized by the other nine coaches for their strong leadership in the back field for Hilbert's turn-around season this year.
Gee was Hilbert's stabilizer in the back. He started every game, playing nearly every minute of the season. His size, strength, and pace allowed him to shut down most offensive threats that came his way. He was also the shape holder for our back line, and the primary ball winner on any ball in the air. He was a primary reason the team had the lowest goal against average in program history. Knapp was a work horse in the back, marking the opponent's top striker. His speed and determination made him difficult for any forward to beat. He also took on more offensive responsibility, pushing forward for three assists, all coming in conference play.
Jeff Panik, the AMCC Coach of the Year, led the turn-around charge for the men's soccer team in just his second season at Hilbert. After suffering a 1-16-1 inaugural year, Panik changed the culture within the soccer program and led them to a respectable 5th seed in the programs first-ever AMCC play-off match with a 5-4 league record. The 2012 team claimed seven All Time Season offensive records and set the new All-Time Season goals against average of 1.92 while winning the most games in the program's history as a Division III program.
Thirty-three soccer players and one coach are recognized for their contributions to their team's success each year. The ten conference coaches vote for the Newcomer Of the Year, the Offensive and the Defensive Players of the Year as well as the Coach of the Year. 11 positional players make up the First, Second and Third Teams. Penn State Behrend's Jake Gamble (Offensive) and Eric Hackworth (Defensive) received the two other individual awards.
Hilbert College, located in suburban Hamburg, N.Y., south of Buffalo, is a private four-year college founded in 1957 in the Catholic Franciscan tradition. With nearly 1,100 students, Hilbert is a dynamic Western New York college that offers career-focused majors, including one of the top criminal justice programs in the region, and more than 50 minors and concentrations. The college's engaging, student-centered campus community offers numerous leadership, internship, and service learning opportunities from which students launch successful careers while making positive changes in their communities. The Hilbert Blueprint promotes a well-rounded student experience over four years – starting with the Foundations Seminar in the freshman year, followed by Sophomore Service, Junior Symposium, and culminating with the Senior Capstone. Hilbert has expanded its academic offerings with the college's first graduate programs and new Accelerated Degree Programs geared to adult learners.

This is why you (and your art) get ignored.People often get the sense of being ignored in the art-scene, especially here online. We all try so hard to get our foot in the door, it's like trying to stuff yourself in an overfull bus like a sardine in a can.Sometimes you just want to socialize with other artists you admire and you seem to be talking into a brick wall or perhaps you've send your portfolio to a company over a dozen times and still don't even seem to get the smallest response or feedback. I will try and tell you WHY you get ignored and HOW you can get noticed instead.I will go through the following cases of being ignored: Your comment. Your art. Your Portfolio. Do know, that even though being ignored feels very personal it's hardly ever personal at all! Your comment(s) gets ignored.It happens ever so often. You notice an artwork or a discussion and you weigh in with your opinion or admiration, perhaps even some feedback? T

Hope learns of Bill's change of heart, Katie calls Brooke over to her house, and Donna and Hope discuss the situation.
At home, Brooke flashes to Bill telling her that going back to Katie is the only way to get their lives back. Hope arrives to find Brooke sitting in the dark. Brooke says there was an accident. She assures her they're fine. Hope presses her. Brooke opens up about what she's done to Katie and Will and talks about things being too awful to forgive. Hope thinks Bill is even more selfish than Brooke - she encourages her mother to hate him instead of herself. Brooke muses that good people don't do the things that she's done. Hope doesn't think Katie will take Bill back now. Brooke says she will. Hope angrily asks why she would ever do that.
At home, Katie tells Bill she gets that he had a scare; he's not himself. Bill tears up and says he was a fool. Katie guesses that Brooke kicked him out. Bill says she'd never do that. Katie tells him to go. He says he ended it with Brooke. Katie asks what he wants with her - his jailor. Bill counters that she was giving him what he needed - she was right about everything; the drinking, the climbing. He wants them to get back to being happy and in love. Katie says he destroyed what they had; there's nothing for him there. Bill moans about having throwing it all away. He feels an electric current going through him just being in the room with her. Katie says he'll get over it. Bill says his old life ended on that rock wall, this is his new one. "Let me back in." Katie calls Brooke. "Get over here." Later, Brooke arrives while Katie's upstairs. Bill apologizes to Brooke. Katie returns and wonders if they're concocting a plan. Brooke says she knows Bill is there to reclaim a life with Katie. Katie says he wants a lot of things back - she's not sure she's one of them. Brooke insists he doesn't have an agenda. Katie wonders if she should be happy to have Brooke's hand-me-down. Brooke says she wants her happiness. Katie asks why she'd want a man who crawls back to her smelling like Brooke. Brooke says, "Maybe because you know he belongs to you." Bill makes another appeal. Brooke urges Katie to love Bill again. "Now I know how hard it is to stop."
Donna arrives at Brooke's house to talk to Hope. They discuss the situation with Brooke, Katie, and Bill, and wonder what's going on over at Katie's house. Hope asks if Katie will take him back. Donna says she burned that bridge and buried the ashes. Hope worries about what will Brooke do then. Donna tells Hope to change the locks.
Spoilers for Next Week on The Bold and the Beautiful:
Katie and Bill look to the future.
Brooke is glad for family peace.

Things I liked:great gun its price is great and a guy on my team has a gun for $119 this will keep up real nice has upgrades you can get cheap
Things I would have changed:bolt is real tough to pull back unless its up to youe shoulder
What others should know:comes with 2 mags each holds 40 rounds i think it has a speed loader and it will work on the mags unlike some sniper rifles
Things I liked:The things i like about this gun is that the barrel and bolt is full metal and it's very accurate and cheap for the quality!! Also a good weight when you are out on the field.
Things I would have changed:The only thing i would change is, Nothing!
What others should know:I would recommend getting the second package if you want a scope because on the third package it has a unicorn scope that you don't need.
Did you have no issues shipping this to Canada?
Things I liked:Accurate, Fast, Reliable, Comfortable, Durable, Cheap.
Things I would have changed:Make the barrel covered in plastic...more durable, I love plastic coated barrels. Even the metal one is very durable, though. Make the bolt open up like a real bolt action so you can see inside and clean easily. INCLUDE A MANUAL FOR HOW TO PUT IT TOGETHER!
What others should know:Make sure it is angled at at least a 45 degree angle when you cock it or it might double load with non-TSD bb's (Crosmans are fine, but make sure to do that). The FPS is so close to the limit that it's not even funny! I chronoed it and it came in at 448 max! The legal is 450 and under! I got so lucky! I could've used .25s to slow it down if needed, but I got by. They made me shoot like 15 rounds because it was so close. Sure glad the factory chrono is reliable. The gun is fairly waterproof, but only in a light rain. Don't soak it. Only a light drizzle to light rain. don't drench the barrel. Clean it often, it will help performance like you wouldn't believe. That's all I have to say other than if you find good cover, the airsoft field becomes a shooting gallery! I picked of 3 newbies in 4 shots. KEEP IN MIND THAT A SNIPER IS ONLY GOOD IF PEOPLE ARE HONEST. I'VE BEEN IN A SITUATION WITH A CHEATER: I SHOT HIM IN THE BACK. OF COURSE THAT GAVE AWAY MY POSITION TO HIM, BUT INSTEAD OF RESPAWNING AT HIS BASE LIKE HE'S SUPPOSED TO, HE LIT ME UP WITH HIS AUTO. I ENDED UP WITH EXACTLY 10 VERY LARGE WELTS ON MY ARMS, AND A SEVERE 6mm BRUISE UNDER MY TRIGGER FINGER'S FINGER NAIL. SO PAINFUL! KEEP THIS IN MIND BEFORE YOU BUY IT. YOU MIGHT WANT TO COMPARE WITH AN AUTO. EVEN STILL, I HIGHLY RECCOMMEND THIS GUN.

It is important that you are safe on-line.
Fantom is a very safe game. Nobody can contact you on Fantom except to ask you to answer YES or No to a trade.
If we know you are under 13 we can protect you even more. For example we only show your username not your real name to make it more difficult to identify you.
Until we get your parents' or guardians' permission to give you full access to the game you can only trade with Fantom, not with other people. This will allow you full access to the game except you will be trading with us, not other people around the world. Once your parent or guardian has given their permission we will allow you to trade with other people but even then we only allow trades with other under 13s. This restriction is removed once you pass your 13th birthday.
Most Fantom games are entirely free. Some have paygates, where you can buy additional packs of stickers or bundles of coins. If you are U13 the only way you can do this is to ask your parent or guardian to use their credit card or Paypal account. As an under 13 you will never see an option to buy stickers or coins using mobile phone credit.

By NOAH FEIT
MORROW, Ga. — Since falling the semifinals of the Peach Belt Conference Tournament to Clayton State last Saturday, the USC Aiken women's basketball team has looked forward to another opportunity to play the top-ranked team in the nation. Even before the Pacers were selected as the fifth-seeded team in the Division II NCAA Tournament Southeast Regional, they had their sights set on another contest with the Lakers.
Thanks to a lopsided 94-71 win over Lenoir-Rhyne, the fourth-seeded team in the regional held at the Athletics & Fitness Center on the campus of Clayton State, USCA will get its wish. For the third time this season the Pacers will try to knock off the undefeated Lakers (30-0) when the teams play in the regional semifinal today. Tip-off is scheduled for 7 p.m.
"We're looking forward to it," USCA head coach Mike Brandt said of facing Clayton State which has defeated the Pacers 56-50 and 75-62 this season. "It's going to be tough, but it's important that we pay our game. Our players are really confident we can beat them and spoil their dream season."
USCA (22-7) dominated this one from the start, rushing out to a 9-1 advantage over the course of the first two minutes. By halftime, the Pacers opened up a 21-point lead at 52-31.
USCA shot 63.6 percent (21-for-33) in the first half. It built such a big lead by knocking down 60 percent (6-of-10) of its 3-point attempts.
"We came out outstanding and were very aggressive," Brandt said. "We did a great job attacking on the break, moving the ball and getting good shots. I can't say (enough) good things."
Daniela Tarailo led the Pacers in the first half scoring all of 19 points on 7-of-8 shooting, knocking down five 3-pointers. Porsha Martin had 16 of her 18 points, while Mackenzie Reese came off the bench to score 11 of her game-high 20 points in the first half.
USCA opened the first three minutes of the second half on a 10-1 run to push its lead to 30 points at 62-32. It shot a scorching 60 percent (36-for-60) from the field. Reserve Kassy Johannsen finished the victory with a career-high 12 points and Mia Antoine added 10 points. Brittany Hill didn't score but did dish out a game-high 10 assists to go along with her three steals.
Jazmine Charles and Danielle Bongiorno both scored 16 points to lead Lenoir-Rhyne in its loss.
The winner of tonight's semifinal will advance to the regional championship game at 7 p.m. on Monday.
"There's no pressure on us," Brandt said. "All the pressure is on them."

Ways to get involved in promoting the Victorious Gospel
0 Members and 1 Guest are viewing this topic.
Cards->table. I'm an atheist. I was raised by holier than thou pentecostal whackjobs in a rural Pennsylvania hellhole town, went along to get along as kids do and then was a closet agnostic or maybe lukewarm believer from the age of 10 onwards, due to all the obvious problems with Christianity that I'm sure you've all heard before and won't bore you with again.So, I find this UR, Universalism thing to be an interesting phenomena. I do realize it is not the same as new age "all religions are the same" type teachings that the fundies would associate you guys with, those people seem unable to understand anything beyond the strawmen that get banged into their heads every Sunday.From where I stand it seems that the whole universalism question highlights a set of contradictions in the bible that for whatever reason are not highlighted in the usual "freethought" literature. Anyways, I'll come back tomorrow, I hope I can provoke some intersting discussion, since you guys seem like a reasonable bunch for still believing in the other cardinal doctrines of the christian religion.
darwinschihuahua isn't that devolution?

- Alumni offer career advice
Current News
Alumni relate how an economics major diversifies job prospects
Jessica Smith '07 works for the Department of Homeland Security.
Mike Miller '10 is a commercial real estate appraiser, and Geneva Hooten '11 works as a transportation-planning consultant.
Although their careers have little in common, all three alumni majored in economics at Willamette University.
On a recent visit to campus, they — and fellow alumna Jessica Lammers '07 — discussed the benefits of an economics major with students.
"At Willamette, students gain the skills to communicate and write," says Hooten, adding students should apply for a variety of jobs — even if they lack all the qualifications.
"People will hire you because you can think and you work hard…Don't underestimate the skills you have."
Since graduating, Hooten found employment as a transportation-planning consultant for David Evans and Associates, Inc. She will soon move to Denver, where she will continue to work for the company.
Smith landed her job with the Department of Homeland Security after completing a fellowship in public policy in Washington, D.C. and earning her master's in public policy from the University of Chicago.
And Lammers, who taught middle school math for two years through Teach for America in Phoenix, later worked for a few years in sports marketing. She's now pursuing her master's degree in civil engineering.
During her talk, Lammers advised students to network and gain diverse work experience while still in college.
"Even though Willamette is a small liberal arts school, it is amazing how many connections you can make through internships and job shadowing," she says. "You have to work for it, but networking definitely pays dividends."
Miller agrees. After graduating, he researched sustainability issues both at Willamette and for a private company in Salem. Now he works as a commercial real estate appraiser.
He and his fellow panelists advised students not to worry about knowing exactly what they will do after graduation. Instead, they should diversify their skill sets while still in college and forge strong ties with their professors.
"The best thing about Willamette is how accessible the faculty are," Miller says. "At Willamette, professors will notice if you miss a class, because they want to see you succeed."

My He wanted us to know love by experience, ie. to have a choice in it, regarding loving Him. Aside from that, the invisible God desired visibility. Blessings....
- nice point redhotmagma about the obedience and with that reference. It addresses a lot of the conflicts I was bringing up.- as for cardinal, your reference to love being a purpose starts to make sense if i apply the meaning long suffering. all together both responses have a way of supporting my one thought that suffering has value and that is why we were created to experience it in a purposely made imperfect world. Without suffering there is no platform to show obedience. Without suffering there is no ingredient for love.
How could we inherit the Kingdom if we stay in the loins of the Father?
@MicahNo because I am not talking about laboring for eternal life. The sufferings I am talking about are those that put us to the test here in the mortal world.
beloved servant - i like your statement but don't summarize my original statement out of context and make it so easy to reply to. I'm not getting at an idea of why were we ever born as much as I'm wondering why we were not made perfect or with more ability. I guess my question is why didn't God make a better Adam and Eve and thus save himself from having to sacrifice Jesus? This is not an attack on my faith or that of others. It is just a pondering. Im stating that God is so wise and of grand abilities that he could have made a perfect creation that would have not been so naive to turn to sin.
Apoc, I too have wondered the same things, but the questioning has not been allowed in traditional churches. It is encouraging to me that others have these musings. About the worth of suffering--it makes me uncomfortable to think God uses suffering to teach us. As a mom i would not make that choice for my children. I do not allow them to play in the street to teach them its a bad idea. For me, the Father heart of God can surely do better. Frankly, i recognize i know little of God, but I need to believe He is nothing short of perfect goodness and love or im screwed.

Recommend: Yes
We got this for one of our daughters, and even though she was unable to read, she loves to look up scriptures in it and ask us to help her find them when we do a family bible study. The pictures in there are so cute. We need to teach our children about our Lord and His precious gift and this is one of the ways to do so :)
Recommend: No
the font is way too small for children. I had to return it since it does not show the type or size of font this bible has. Some others may like it but it did not work for me. wish I would have known before buying it, how small the letters were. returned both the pink and blue, the bibles ont he outside are beautiful though.
This is a wonderful Bible. I purchased the pink one for a young lady who is a "Tween." She has shown a lot of interest in this Bible and this is the first one she has ever had that was her very own Bible. It made her feel special. The Bible is well made and I cannot find one thing to complain about. I plan to purchase several more for nieces and nephews at this great price.
I bought this Bible in pink and when it came I just thought it was so beautiful that I decided to buy the blue one too. I bought the pink one for myself :) and God willing I can give another pink one to my niece. I bought the blue one to have on hand to give as a gift to a newborn or young child.
I think this is the sweetest thing. Is it bad that I want one of my own?

Textbook-Related Legislation Moves Forward
On May 10 the Texas House of Representatives passed HB 1172 and forwarded it to the Senate. This bill would restore the State Board of Education's (SBOE) authority to reject textbooks for any reason, a power which has been restricted in recent years by other legislation. Previously Texas had been the scene of spirited creationist attacks on evolution during its textbook adoption process. Because of the size of its educational system Texas exerts considerable influence over publishers and the national textbook marketplace.
Anti-evolution legislation in South Carolina
On April 29 the South Carolina Senate passed S153 and forwarded it to the House of Representatives, where it was referred to the Committee on Education and Public Works. This bill originally dealt with instructional materials for public schools. On April 9 Sen. Michael Fair proposed an amendment which would have required a disclaimer in all kindergarten through 12th grade science books stating "The cause or causes of life are not scientifically verifiable.

Ticonderoga Ticonderoga High School athletes enjoyed a banner season last fall on the playing field and in the classroom.
All four Sentinel varsity teams — football, women's soccer, men's cross country and women's cross country — earned the New York State Public High School Athletic Association Scholar-Athlete Team award. To get the honor each team's academic average must be 90 or better.
"What NYSPHSAA requires is that a set number of team members have an overall average of 90 or higher," said Ticonderoga Athletic Director Bob Sutphen. "In our case, each fall team met this, with one of our teams actually surpassing the minimal number."
The men's and women's cross country teams each had seven athletes with better than 90 averages. The women's soccer team had 12 player meet the standard and the football team had 14 gridders reach the mark.
"This supports the research that students who participate in school activities outside the classroom statistically do better in school than their peers who do not," said John McDonald, Ti school superintendent.
"I would like to congratulate these students for being recognized for such a great accomplishment." he said. "I am proud that they are able prioritize their time to attend to their academics and still excel in athletics. I would also like to thank their coaches and parents for supporting them and providing them with the motivation to succeed."
Men's cross country runners cited include Colvin Chapman, John Cook, Mark Donohue, Martin Glazer, Ryan Price, Cody O'Hara and Kody Parrott.
Led by Coach Jay Wells, the men's cross country team won the Champlain Valley Athletic Conference with a 17-1 record and Section VII Class D championship this fall before placing fifth at the state championship meet.
Women's harriers honored are Hannah Herbst, Elizabeth Aranguiz, Alaina Bevilacqua, Becky Barber, Naomi Forkas, Ashlyn LaPerle and Markie teRiele.
