You wanna know the title of the new Batman vs. Superman film? Nah, you don't wanna know. You clicked here for some other reason. Well, just in case you didn't, the subtitle of the new DC Comics superhero film is…
Dawn of Justice.
Well then. Okay.
I would call it a pun or play on words, but "dawn of justice" has absolutely zero idiomatic meaning. It's gibberish. So the only meaning that can be ascertained is that it's the beginning of the Justice League, featuring all sorts of awesome superheroes and Aquaman.
It sounds like they may have used the Transformers marketing team to establish this thing. Just terrible.
But fortunately, everyone is on board with Ben Affleck as Batman, so at least there's that.
"Dawn of Justice."

This article describes the Windows XP Font Pack for ISO 10646:2003 + Amendment 1 Traditional Chinese Support (HKSCS-2004) update for Windows XP and for Windows Server 2003.
Since 2001, the Information and Communications Technology (ICT) sector in Hong Kong has identified the Chinese characters that are mainly used in Hong Kong. These characters are collectively known as the Hong Kong Supplementary Character Set (HKSCS). The HKSCS was adopted as the universal standard for Chinese characters by the ISO-10646 standard. Before the ISO-10646 standard adopted the HKSCS, Microsoft supported the HKSCS characters by providing the HKSCS-2001 update for Windows XP. The HKSCS-2001 update contains two parts: the font part and the Input Method Editor (IME) part. To define HKSCS characters, the fonts and IMEs provided by the HKSCS-2001 update used Private Use Area (PUA) code point values.
By 2004, all HKSCS characters were defined in the ISO-10646 standard. Therefore, Windows Vista and Windows 7 support HKSCS characters that are encoded in both PUA and the ISO-10646 standard. This enables backward compatibility with Windows XP. Documents that are created in Windows XP can be opened and displayed correctly in Windows Vista and in Windows 7. However, if a document that contains HKSCS characters was created in Windows Vista or in Windows 7, the document might not be displayed correctly in Windows XP. To resolve this problem, Microsoft has released a new update, HKSCS-2004, for Windows XP and for Windows Server 2003.
The HKSCS-2004 update supports all the HKSCS characters that were defined in the ISO-10646 standard. The HKSCS-2004 update replaces the Windows XP version of the MingLiu and the PMingLiu fonts with Windows 7 version of them. If the HKSCS-2001 update has previously been applied on a computer, the HKSCS-2004 update also replaces the Windows XP version of the MingLiu_HKSCS font with Windows 7 version. In addition, the HKSCS-2004 update installs Windows 7 versions of the MingLiU-ExtB, of the MingLiU_HKSCS-ExtB, and of the PMingLiU-ExtB fonts onto the operating system. If the HKSCS-2001 update has previously been applied on a computer, the HKSCS-2004 update only replaces the font part of the HKSCS-2001 update, and not the IME part of the HKSCS-2001 update. Therefore, after they apply the HKSCS-2004 update, users can view documents that contain HKSCS characters encoded in both PUA and in ISO-10646 standard. However, users cannot input HKSCS characters encoded in ISO-10646 standard.
Known limitations of the update

PrerequisitesTo apply this update, you must be running Windows XP or Windows Server 2003. Additionally, you must have the following language pack installed: Chinese (Traditional Hong Kong. S.A.R). The locale has to be set to Chinese (Traditional, Hong Kong S.A.R.).
Restart requirementYou may have to restart the computer after you apply this update.
Update replacement informationThis update replaces the HKSCS 2001 update.
Note We do not recommend that you apply the HKSCS-2001 update again after you apply this update. If you apply the HKSCS-2001 update after you apply this update, the old font in the HKSCS-2001 update is installed on the computer. Therefore, documents that contain HKSCS characters that are encoded in the ISO-10646 standard do not display correctly.

Another Perspective
Defending Freedom in the Age of Obama
Relearning the forgotten lessons of 1993.
A few months ago Imprimis, the monthly publication put out by Hillsdale College, printed an edited version of an address given at Hillsdale by Mark Steyn. Steyn's piece, entitled "Live Free or Die," is remarkable, as is typical for his work. Not to compare myself to the great Steyn, but it reminded me of something I wrote for the libertarian publication The Freeman way back in 1993, entitled "A Nation of Children."
Back then we were facing some of the same assaults to the free market and individual liberty that confront us today. Hillary Clinton was leading the charge for government provided "universal health care" and President Bill Clinton and members of his inner circle, such as economist Robert Reich, had resurrected talk of government guiding the workings of the market through "industrial policy" and advocated the placing additional mandates on employers.
The fact that we are arguing many of these same issues now, 16 years later, points to the fact that those of us who believe that protecting individual liberty is the primary role of the government, came out, to a significant degree, victorious in those previous battles. "Hillary Care" went down to defeat, industrial policy did not take off, and though we lost the argument on increasing the minimum wage and other employer mandates, we did win on achieving meaningful welfare reform.
On the flip side, however, our renewal of many of these same debates reflects the fact that we did not win the ideological war. Though enough Americans were convinced that the Clinton's version of socialized medicine would reduce the overall quality and availability of health care, for instance, most Americans did not sign on to the notion that none of this was the business of the federal government in the first place. We won the argument on practical grounds -- big, intrusive government does not work -- not on philosophical grounds -- we should not allow government greater control over our lives. Since we did not win that philosophical argument in 1993, we now have to fight the same battle today, with a more powerful and ideological opponent in the Obama administration and its large left-wing majority in Congress.
The opposition to the power grabs of the Obama administration has been focused on the practical arguments. Cap and Trade will have no meaningful impact on global CO2 emissions (as admitted by the EPA), and will cost U.S. companies and consumer billions of dollars and cost jobs (yes, it will "create" some jobs in "green technologies" but cost many times as many jobs throughout the rest of the economy). Americans do not want health care rationing or reduced quality care, which is exactly what we will get under Obama's European-style "healthcare reform" (which is designed to drive all Americans into a "single payer" government "alternative" insurance program) as is widely demonstrated in countries where similar schemes have been in operation for decades: In Great Britain, many patients are denied life-saving drugs based on the ruling of bureaucrats that they are not "cost effective" and roughly 40% of cancer patients never get to see an oncologist. In Canada, ambulances are often turned away from big city hospitals due to overcrowding, and it is not unusual for patients needing MRIs and other specialized treatment to be flown to rural American hospitals that are better equipped than many big city Canadian hospitals. All across Europe and Canada, waiting list horror stories are the norm, and you are far more likely to die from a host of ailments under socialized European or Canadian care than if you are being treated in the United States.
And the proposed "financing" for socialized "Obama Care" -- placing the burden of a huge on-going entitlement on employers and on the backs of the top 1% of wage earners (who already shoulder 40% of the national tax burden) with a huge income tax surcharge, and on doctors and hospitals who, by government fiat, will be paid less and less for their services -- is both immoral and insane, and will obviously have a negative impact on employment and economic growth, and on the quality and quantity of health care available. And what do you think will happen when the cost of the entitlement outstrips the revenue from the taxes on the small minority that is currently targeted to pay for it?
But the argument against these policies goes farther than merely the practical. As Steyn writes:
Once you have government health care, it can be used to justify almost any restraint on freedom: After all, if the state has to cure you, it surely has an interest in preventing you needing treatment in the first place. That's the argument behind, for example, mandatory motorcycle helmets, or the creepy teams of government nutritionists currently going door to door in Britain and conducting a "health audit" of the contents of your refrigerator. They're not yet confiscating your Twinkies; they just want to take a census of how many you have. So you do all this for the "free" health care -- and in the end you may not get the "free" health care anyway. Under Britain's National Health Service, for example, smokers in Manchester have been denied treatment for heart disease, and the obese in Suffolk are refused hip and knee replacements. Patricia Hewitt, the British Health Secretary, says that it's appropriate to decline treatment on the basis of "lifestyle choices." Smokers and the obese may look at their gay neighbor having unprotected sex with multiple partners, and wonder why his "lifestyle choices" get a pass while theirs don't. But that's the point: Tyranny is always whimsical.
When you tell government that it is its responsibility to make sure everyone has "affordable healthcare" or some other "benefit" you are telling an army of nanny bureaucrats that it is perfectly legitimate for government to regulate your behavior for your own good, the good of the "system," or the good of the planet. And we have seen in America how seemingly innocent intrusions always expand as the years go on. For instance, the very reasonable proposition that smoking should be banned in public places where people have to sit grouped together, such as in sports stadiums, expanded after a few years, on the basis of questionable studies on the effects of "second hand smoke," to the complete banning of smoking in almost all public areas as well as private property such as restaurants, to today where some municipalities are working to forbid people from smoking in their own cars and residences.
Using the hysteria of "man-made global warming" the Obama administration is pushing for Cap and Trade and other measures to take away freedom that otherwise would not have any political traction. Cap and Trade has nothing to do with forcing polluters to "internalize" the cost of pollution. It is all about placing costs on energy producers, and all who consume energy (that's just about everyone, including couples making less than $250,000 per year) in order to force industries to use "greener" but more expensive sources of power, and to adapt their homes, businesses, and lifestyles to be more "eco-friendly." By the way, authors of a recent study published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, have suggested that Cap and Trade, to really be effective and "fair," should be implemented on an individual level. No doubt, policy makers are taking much greater note of this study than they are of the fact that there has been no "global warming" over the last decade. And one must wonder, since the most potent greenhouse gas is not CO2, but methane, and the biggest single "man-made" source of methane is farm animals, for the good of the planet (as well as to keep health care costs down) will we all need to cap our intake of beef and pork?
Though liberals love to complain about conservatives trying to "impose their morality" on others, it is liberals who consistently argue for expanded powers of government over people's lives, which ultimately result in liberals "imposing their morality" on the rest of us. And if you can't be prodded or incentivised to act the way liberals want you to, eventually you'll be compelled by law to do so.
As I wrote back in 1993, "Like children, Americans will sooner or later discover that they cannot rely on some authority to take care of them and still be free. It is a truism that with freedom comes responsibility. It is also true that freedom only lasts if people take responsibility for their activities and reject the premise that their lives should be made easier at the expense of other people's freedom." Unfortunately, today many Americans are perfectly content to bargain away what was for a long time the defining word of the American spirit in exchange for promises of federal paternalism.
Freedoms bargained away to government are usually lost for generations. As Steyn comments:
To rekindle the spark of liberty once it dies is very difficult. The inertia, the ennui, the fatalism is more pathetic than the demographic decline and fiscal profligacy of the social democratic state, because it's subtler and less tangible. But once in a while it swims into very sharp focus. Here is the writer Oscar van den Boogaard from an interview with the Belgian paper De Standaard. Mr. van den Boogaard, a Dutch gay "humanist" (which is pretty much the trifecta of Eurocool), was reflecting on the accelerating Islamification of the Continent and concluding that the jig was up for the Europe he loved. "I am not a warrior, but who is?" he shrugged. "I have never learned to fight for my freedom. I was only good at enjoying it."
Americans have historically been good at fighting for their freedoms as well as enjoying them, though an increasing number of Americans over the past few generations have been opting out of the fight and have instead taken on the attitude reflected by Mr. van den Boogaard. But if we stop fighting for our freedoms, they will be taken away by, at best, the likes of Mr. Obama or future benevolent socialists who believe that there is little intrinsic value to personal liberty, or, at worst, by future not-so-benevolent autocrats.

Some important differences: President Chelsea Clinton (Dem) has elected not to run for re-election this year. Her VP, Ethan Hawke is running against Maria Chavez (Green) grand-daughter of the labor leader, Robert Taft IV (Rep), and Akira Miyasaki (Reform).
The world is no longer in a situation where the U.S. is the sole superpower. It is now on equal footing with the E.C. (European Community) and with Unified China (China + Taiwan, - Tibet).
At least as important though, in world affairs are the global, multi-national corporations. MS-Sony, Gentech-Megamedia & Sushi; ADM-Motorola-Airbus; Disney-Lockheed-Martin; BP-MCI-Coca Cola; and Fox Newscorp dominate world politics.
Computers: all the computers are faster & store more data. So much so, that they can make really cool VR video games, where they scan your entire body and when you put on the head set, everything looks and sounds like it would in the real world. Unfortunately, set-ups to fool the other senses as effectively (particularly taste & touch, and balance) are prohibitively expensive for most people, and the touch one - which looks like something out of Lawnmower Man - takes up a hell of a lot of space. Some folks at the MIT Media Lab are working on something less bulky that would tap directly into your brain - right now most of the work has been on trying to develop something that would be less invasive and work with electromagnetic fields - sort of like using a MRI to program how your brain senses things instead of just scanning it.
Biotech - after the success of the human genome project, many genetic related diseases are very treatable & correctable now, although many still aren't. After some setbacks in the mid '00's through the early 10's, with Green Party activists, many smart-foods are available on the market, and if you don't mind that your chicken may have some banana genes in it by way of stapholococcus, then you can eat very healthily on a diet that would have seemed 30 years ago, destined to give you a heart attack by the age of 45.
Nanotech - We don't have cell sized machines yet... at least not that do all that much. Not on their own. Not really. I mean, they'd tell us if they did right? Some nanotech machines have been used, largely in the medical field to do micro-surgery to excise cancers & unclog arteries and things like that w/o damaging healthy tissue. Problem is, that these things are still a little clumsy & even with advances in computers they have very little data storage capacity. Most of them can't do much on automatic & have to be directed by a computer outside, broadcasting the directions via radio. Shielding in these operating rooms is an imperative.
Space - there are permanently inhabited, international space stations on the moon, in low-earth orbit, in geosychronous orbit and at the L5 and L4 Lagrange points 60 degrees ahead and behind the Earth in its orbit around the sun. No person has set foot on Mars yet, but launch of a ship from the geosynch station is scheduled for later this year.
Telecommunications: Almost everyone who would have a phone in 2000, has a cell phone in 2024. Almost everyone who would have a cellphone in 2000 has a sat[tellite] phone in 2024. Cell & sat phones are equipped with GPS, and the larger ones have full internet access with voice recognition navigation & writing capability. These models are about the size of today's cellphones. Latest versions of cellphones consist of a small, hearing aid-sized earpiece, and a lip ring with an embedded microphone (tuned appropriately to elliminate any noise distortion.
Military - Drone Planes, Drone Bombers. Nuke subs are still manned. Carriers are still manned. Concern for being able to powerfully yet effectively handle smaller scale conflict led to the development of a wide range of non-lethal weaponry (ala sticky foam, nets & hypersonics) in the 00's, but then with the South American War of 2012-2014, there was a demand for an upgrade in more lethal infantry & armored cavalry. The importation from Japan to Peru of the first military grade hardsuits in late 2013 proved a decisive maneuver in Peru's defense, and allowed them to repel both Columbia and Argentina. This war has also become known as the Corporate War because of the unashamed and unhidden backing the different participants had from the the MMC's, rather than from individual nations. Non-lethals are now often used by most civilian police forces, but most larger cities also have SWAT teams with a few hardsuits.
Net-heads: people who are online almost all the time. They usually do this by wearing the earpiece/lip- ring cellphone and a set of lower res, VR goggles which look like dark swimming goggles - except that they usually have a small antennae sticking out along one side, which signals to a small, pager- sized computer, usually worn at the belt. The goggles usually work in HUD (head's up display) mode, so that the user can see the outside world and not walk into walls or oncoming traffic, but can go completely virtual. Many of these folks will have a one hand keyboard worn on their left forearm or their right thigh.
Academic Security: All this might make it much easier to cheat, so special isolation rooms have been made such that students much pass through de-Gaussers before entering and white-noise is transmitted over the primary net & cell frequencies within the room. This is also often used in theaters in concert halls to prevent distractions.
Music: in the late 00's, there was an early 90's nostalgia & grunge came back, rejecting the bighair/glam bands which had naturally come to fore- following in the wake of Christina Agulara, Britney Spears & the boy bands. Then in the late 2010's, there was a synthpop/dance revival with a large Indo-Arabic flavor, because people started to think the grunge/punk revival just wasn't enough fun. This wave has just started to get too cheesy & synthetic for most folks and another grunge/punk revival has recently begun to take off. Of course, the really cool, in the know people disdain the second grunge revival, because Brazilian folk music is where it is at. Actually a lot of folks think they are the really cool, in the know people, who dig a particular sub-genre of world music, but the Brazillian stuff is getting just a little more play at "alternative" dance clubs and college stations.

A new document designed to settle debates over how to approach teen pregnancy prevention implies that evidence should trump content. As a sexuality educator and a mother, I have to disagree. What you say is important, as is how you say it and, frankly, equally important is what you deliberately leave out (e.g. no mention of same-sex relationships).
This week, the National Campaign to Prevent Teen and Unplanned Pregnancy released With One Voice 2012, America's Adults and Teens Sound Off About Teen Pregnancy. This survey tells us quite a bit about the roles parents play in the sexual decision-making of young people, how young people and adults feel about sexuality education, what they think about contraception, and the power of the media.
I take a closer look at the Bedsider Campaign which launched last week with PSAs, a website, and other tools to help young people (ages 18-24 specifically) use contraception and avoid unplanned pregnancy. The ads are fun but is the website too light on STI information and too hard on condoms?
Carrying the burden of childhood abuse and neglect, these girls and women present a greater, specific challenge to those who work to prevent teen pregnancy.

Trend Toward Pre-Finished
In health care settings, the trend is toward use of pre-finished hardwood flooring, millwork and casework products. Reasons include improved quality control, cost-effectiveness and indoor air quality.
When it comes to indoor air quality in residential settings, Paula Baker-Laporte, AIA, Principal and Owner of Baker-Laporte and Associates, Sante Fe, New Mexico, stipulates that two groups of people must be considered when designing a healthy home: those who are chemically sensitive and those who aren't, but desire a healthful space.
"For people who are very chemically sensitive, I recommend a factory U.V. floor finish so that they don't have to refinish in their home. Pre-finished materials are off-gassed under controlled conditions and the client receives an inert product," elaborates Baker-Laporte. "In the case of healthy people without chemical sensitivities, there are many low- or zero-VOC finishes that work within the parameters of healthy design."

Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn Early Access LIVE, Server Problems, & Setup Guide
18 Comments to Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn Early Access LIVE, Server Problems, & Setup Guide
NEED HELP!… I've just got FF14: a realm reborn for my PS3 and I'm having problems with my registration code… It keeps say it "may no longer be valid" how can this be when I just got? please comment if you have any suggestions on what Im doing wrong
Logged right on this morning, problems from the weekend and yesterday SEEM to be gone :)
I hear that Early Access (EA) has been extended to the 29th. As a customer who has already purchased a physical copy of the game from the stores (bought mine in Singapore) but wasn't eligible for EA, does that mean that I can now only play on the 29th? – Has the launch date changed at all?
Still unable to log in as of 6:30pm EST. When will game developers realize that opening dates of game releases are like first impressions – you only get one chance.
Stopped reading at: 'problems' (plural) has (singular)'. If you do not know how to write, don't try.
oooh you is rude.
Woops fixed. Thanks! :)
Honestly the best move is cancel the preorders before they get charged and you lose part of your 30 days free and wait a few weeks until the environment is stable enough to play……Hmmmm I wonder if presales started dropping and cancellations started rolling in whether these MMO companies would finally get the message about a clean(er) launch for end users……
Maybe they would stop treating their paying customers like sheep???
I think you may have meant, Guinea Pig, not Sheep…would have worked perfect…I've been playing since Saturday and I am already Level 15, have put in a lot of hourse
I think you meant hours, not hourse. Would have worked perfect…. also, he used sheep as the term for gamers who follow publishers like fanboys, never asking questions and taking any crap given to them. The use of guinea pig actually makes no sense in this conversation…..so yeah….
So you said there is a one time fix if i accidentally used early code on wrong account. Thing here is i bought EU FFXIV from GMG. I activated it (this is where mistake happens) on a US account THROUGH the EU preorder link. (I didnt know that account was US region, my mistake there but its their mistake that the game code isnt region locked) so when i tried to enter early access code on that same account it didnt work cuz diff region. What i did is i made a new account which is EU region and used the early access code on that. What should i do? i have EU game activated on US account and my EU early access code activated on a new EU account i made. Should i go for the one time fix thing and hope they can transfer my EU early access code to the US account which has the EU FFXIV activated on?
Just wanted to add that im already downloading the game, the EU account worked to login on launcher. I dont know if that account gets 30 days free. Or it just has early access and thats it for that account. Please help.
Noone is able to log in to the NA/EU servers right now – no info on a maintenance, just that they are working on it. I was in game and got an error code reportedly resolved in Phase 4 – 90000 and 10102 error. The game is excellent however, SE made a huge mistake on putting so much demand on a single "off load" server and should have been anticipated from the beginning as this is for both solo and group instancing for all servers.
NA/EU not abel to connect to servers 7:51 AM MT time. REally sucks since this is my only day off to try and even get ahead in this game
Yeah that sucks :( although if no one else is able to log I suppose no one is really getting ahead. One other thing everyone else should note is that you have until Aug 30 to put in your final game key during early access… so potentially 3 more days of free game time (e.g. versus activating it on August 27).
Total of 3 emergency maintenances today. One of them is tonight so I hope the game is working fully by tomorrow or they might as well start working on FF14 3.0 because this is ridiculous.
THE NA/EU servers still aren't working for me and I have reloaded the game.. turned my playstation off, and tried everything. It is 12AM on the 25th of August where I live now in Ireland which is in the EU and I still cant get a server and into the game worlds….. very frustrating and makes me think my pre-order was a waste of time. Hopefully it will be working tomorrow when I awake so I might get to play it a little before I go back to work on Monday :( Very disappointed..
The servers are "working" here in Michigan/United States but most of them are completely full- we can't get IN to play, but the servers are loading on the game. Not much of a point if you can't even play!

Are you looking in Santa Rosa? Is there a particular area you're looking for?
Hello! There is a pre-school fair at Finley Community Center on Wed. the 13th. It starts at 7pm. The preschool I work at, Bethlehem Children's Center, will be there and quite a few others though I'm not sure exactly how many. It might be a good way to get info on several options.
Just in case it hasn't already been mentioned go to 4Cs or call them and they will give you a list for your area. Additionally try scca.info and they too have a referral list for providers. Just remember in-home childcare providers are as great as centers.

Yellow Jaundice
Oct 15, 2001
when I was four years old I had "yellow jaundice" - that is what it was referred to then. I remember my skin was yellow and I was considered infectious and I was very seriously ill. I'm still unclear as to what kind of hepatitis I had. Can you enlighten me? Thank you.
Response from Dr. Dieterich
It was likely hepatitis A which is common in children and is spread fecally-orally. Because of that method of spread it can also be sexually transmitted in the gay population. You can have your MD check your blood for antibodies to hepatitis A and B and if you are negative then you should be vaccinated for one or both. Good luck! DTD

Version 3.0.1
Strictly AutoTags is a Wordpress plugin that is designed to do one thing and one thing only which is to add the most relevant and appropriate post tags to your articles well as discovering new tags on the way with as little effort as possible.
This plugin is ideal for people starting new blogs who haven't yet built up their own taxonomy lists as the Auto Discovery feature enables you to build up your tag lists automatically. As new posts get added your tag list will grow with your blog. It is also great for Automatic Blogging Systems or sites that require accurate tagging and great Search Engine Optimisation with as little human interaction as possible. It is also a brilliant plugin to use alongside the Strictly TweetBot plugin as you can automatically use the post tags the plugin generates as #HashTags in automated tweets to multiple Twitter accounts.
There are two versions of the plugin.
One is the free version which you can obtain from the WordPress plugin site and has less features, the other is a paid for version which you can pay for and buy here for just £40.00. The reason I have split this plugin up is that I have put a lot of work into this program and even with over 201,848 downloads (Sep 2015) I have hardly had any donations. This is despite the fact thousands of websites, companies and SEO sites use it and lots of sites talk about how good it is.
If everyone had donated me a single £ then I would not have to do this and in all honesty I don't like having to keep two versions of the code going. Therefore if people did start donating me a single pound per download I would be able to spend much more time developing the features for this plugin as a free program for everybody's use.
How it works
The plugin scans each new post as its added for suitable words that could be used as tags and then orders them so that only the most relevant words get added to the post. It has the ability to rank words contained in the title, headers and other HTML such as <strong> or <em> tags higher than other plain text.
As well as using existing tags to find new ones this plugin has an Auto Detect feature which when enabled will use some simple logic to detect new words to treat as tags. I have found that over 90% of all the tags I use in my numerous blogs fall into one of the following three categories: Acronyms e.g CIA, FBI, AIG, IT, SQL, ASP, names of people, companies, institutions, places and countries e.g John Smith, Barclays Bank, Federal Reserve or USA. Therefore unlike other plugins Strictly AutoTags will scan new posts for words and sentences that match these groups and then use them as potential tag candidates.
As well as just finding new tags and using existing tags to find relevant words to be used for post tags in an article the plugin comes with some great features such as the ability to deeplink a specified number of tags to their related tag page, highlight a number of the tags in <strong> tags and automatically convert plain text links into real clickable anchor tags.
The benefit of deeplinking on saving a post and not outputting it is that you speed up the display of a post as you only save a post one or a few times whilst it can be displayed thousands of times (with or without a caching plugin). There are also options to clean out the SEO options e.g remove deeplinking and bolding when you save a post so that every edit gets a new AutoTag scan and in the new paid for version a Clean Edit Mode which allows you to edit individual posts one at a time and remove any HTML the plugin may have added. There is also a bulk clean option but on sites with large numbers of articles this could take a while to run.
The latest free version is 3.0.0 which fixes some bugs and allows you to rank words within the title of the article or HTML tags like headers or anchors higher than other words, bulk clean your posts from any HTML the plugin adds and some changes to regular expressions and functions. You can obtain this plugin from the Wordpress Subversion repository but I would urge you to consider donating so that I can in future offer you the better version for a small donation.
However the latest "Paid For version 3.0.1" is a much more sophisticated plugin that is only available to people who pay £40.
New features in the paid for version 3.0.1 enable you to do the following
- The ability to remove basic formatting from the post. Ideal for auto-bloggers who import from feeds containing <B>, <I>, <FONT>, <SPAN> tags that could cause formatting issues on your site.
- Better regular expressions, more checks and the ability to bulk re-tag and link with all key attributes (alt,title,src,href,data-blah) including shortcodes [youtube url] saved before re-formatting to keep the original HTML in tact.
- New functions to find tricky words like al-Nusra Front, World War II or 1,000 Guineas.
- Bulk update to remove all HTML the plugin adds.
- Option to turn the plugin into Clean Edit Mode so you can edit individual articles to remove any HTML you don't like.
- New functions to turn text like http://www.strictly-software.com and www.strictly-software.com into clickable links e.g strictly-software.com.
- Set a minimum length of characters for a tag to be used.
- Set the maximum number of words allowed in a tag.
- Set equivalent words for tags e.g search for Edward Snowden, NSA or PRISM and use the tag Internet Privacy.
- Bold and deeplink common used tags to create great SEO for Googlebot and BING to crawl.
- Set the minimum number of tags that must be stored against articles before they can be used in any deep linking.
- Set the maximum number of tags in an article to deeplink.
- Set the maximum number of tags to place against an article.
- Create a list of case sensitive and case insensitive "noise" words to ignore and never use as tags.
- Use the new finished_doing_tagging hook which is available for other plugin authors to use so that actions only occur after tagging is done on a post. For example my other plugin Strictly Tweetbot uses this hook so that tags are available to be used as #hashtags in tweets.
- All content already inside special HTML tags <H1-6> <a> title, src, href, alt and new data-blah or data-blah-blah attributes and Wordpress shortcodes e.g [youtube url] are stored in memory to prevent bolding or deeplinking within other tags or attributes.
- All shortcodes are removed before auto discovery so that attributes or words inside them are not accidentally matched as potential tag candidates.
- Important closing HTML tags such as </H[1-6]>, </P>, </DIV> or <HR /> are replaced with a period so that words at the end of one closing tag is not joined with the starting word of another tag.
- The ability to add rel="nofollow" to any links that are made clickable e.g www.strictly-software.com.
- Add rel="nofollow" to any existing outbound links on the page which may have come from imported feed content.
- A new list of "Top Tags" which if found in the article will be ranked much higher than any other tags. This allows you to ensure your sites main keywords are tagged, bolded and deeplinked, even if they are only found in the content a couple of times.
- The option to remove all numerical characters before auto discovery so that if you don't want complex words like 1,000 Guineas or 2,000,000 Million Pounds matched you can ignore the numbers.
- Fix for the deletion of mass tags so that it doesn't affect any categories with the same name.
- Override the siteurl WordPress Database setting which is used in deeplinking tags. Ideal if you have a custom site folder structure and don't want to change the siteurl value in the database.
- Fix for certain checkbox options such as Skip Pre-Tagged Posts which were not being saved.
- New help section with the test post for checking whether the plugin is working.
- A check to ensure that if the newly re-formatted article is less than 50 characters long the original article is kept and an empty article isn't saved instead.
Latest free version 3.0.0
Version 3.0.0 is the latest free version available and contains the hook finished_doing_tagging and the storage of shortcodes and data attributes as well as some cleaner regular expressions and the option to bulk clean your posts. It also includes the fix for mass deletions and Skip Pre-Tagged Posts.

"Where science can learn from literature is that it's not recreating the feeling of the first experience of the drug encounter, but that initial imagery associated with the intensity," he says.
Poet John Keats and philosopher Immanuel Kant were able to create a blueprint for a kind of melody that remains in short-term memory but resists being encoded in long-term memory, where it becomes habitual and the freshness fades.
For example, in Keat's Hyperion, the poet writes about a string of successive notes heard as one. "It will stay fresh, vivid and intense when encountered again and again," Clune says.
Poet John Ashberry has been able to overcome the mind's natural boredom by creating poetic images that imitate artifacts from an unknown or nonexistent culture. Out of context, and without a sense of shape, it keeps the mind active in searching but never finding, says Clune. The artifact combines an inkling of familiarity with the unknown, but just enough to keep the mind alert and aware of the object.
Literary immortality is also achieved by immersing the reader in an extraordinary experience outside the realm of their reality. George Orwell's 1984, for example, creates that kind of fictional world.
Vagueness also can works to keep the mind active. It isn't about a good or complicated plot in the story, Clune says, adding that the mind gives up its natural inclination to turn information into a memory when that information is too strange.
Clune found that empathy in writing also is a time-stopper, allowing readers to step inside an experience unlike his or her own.

Dear Mom, You are not in a position to dictate how financial help is given to you. I will do my best to avoid formal bankruptcy for you, but there are no guarantees. I am not in the least convinced that your saving face is worth the money. I will make every effort to get your finances settled in a timely manner.
At no time will we operate on the tried and true "Josephine" system of "Imagining Something Is So Make It So." In short, I will check all info you give me for fact by contacting all agencies companies, etc. involved. Temporarily, I will send $1,000 per month until we figure out what your expenses are. In April, my social security kicks in and I will send that to you and stop sending the $1,000. By then any adjustments needed to your income will have been made.
Read this carefully as traditionally you have ignored valid requests from others in favor of what ever it is you want to do: If I ever read or hear the word "LOVE" from you in reference to your feelings for you children, I will deduct $250 from you next month's stipend. Understand the penalty is per use of the word.
It is not necessary that you like this rule and of course your choice of behavior and how you spend your money, as always, is yours. But do not make the mistake of thinking that I'm being funny or that I'm not completely serious or that you will be able to talk your way around this rule. There are no exceptions. If you break the rule, you pay. If you go to family members regarding any incident pursuant to the rule, I will stop the stipend completely. Make no mistake, the choice and consequences of that choice are completely controlled by you. Donna
Now, we could talk here about how the mother though her past behavior may deserve these feelings from the daughter or has brought this situation upon herself and how the daughter may therefore be justified and so on. But consider the following questions: Do you think the daughter is a happy person? Do you think that anyone who could write such a letter is happy and fulfilled in her life and feels good about herself? Do you think that her expression of anger and resentment points her in the direction of peace of mind or away from it?
What is Forgiveness?
The price of unforgiveness is all the emotional upset and discomfort you feel when you think of someone you'd not forgiven -- the tension, anxiety, anger, tightness in your stomach and chest, rising blood pressure, out of control feeling, frustration, helplessness, fear, reliving again and again the hurt, and pain or betrayal you feel.
Forgiveness is the choice to no longer find value in hatred or anger. And it is letting go of the desire to hurt others or ourselves because of something that is already in the past. It is the willingness to open our eyes to the good in other people rather than to judge or condemn them.
To forgive is to feel the compassion, gentleness, and caring that is always within us, no matter how circumstances may seem at the moment. Forgiveness is the only certain route toward of inner peace and happiness.
Somehow, we believe that we can achieve the peace of mind by holding on to hatred, anger, and resentment. There's a part which says that we must protect ourselves and that we can achieve happiness and peace of mind by being attached to hatred and seeking revenge. We must therefore withdraw and withhold our love because we have been hurt in the past.
We can look upon forgiveness as a journey from an internal world -- where we are always recycling our anger -- to a place of peace. It takes us into an unfamiliar destination where we can give more than lip service to the concept of unconditional love. Forgiveness can free us from the painful and confused emotional imprisonment of fear and anger. It releases us from our impossible task of trying to change the past.
We live in a society that has adopted the philosophy that when things go wrong, the only reasonable thing to do is to find someone or some situation to blame. I like to call this the philosophy of the ego.
It can be helpful to think of the ego as having a belief system of its own. Think of the ego's thought system as being based on fear, guilt, and blame. If we were to choose only to follow it guiding principles, we would always be in a state of conflict, and any peace or happiness that we might have will completely elude us.
Given that this is the way the ego works, it should come as no surprise that it does not believe in forgiveness. In fact, it will do everything it can to convince us that nobody in the world deserves our forgiveness. It clings fiercely to the belief that people do things for which they must never be forgiven.
The ego believes that we must constantly defend ourselves. For example, the unforgiving mind of the ego would try to convince us that the only way to protect ourselves from further harm is to punish the other person with our anger and our hatred, withdrawing love from them so that they will feel bad for what they have done. In other words, we want to inflict pain too, and we then bask in the crude pleasure of it while feeling righteous and justified. The ego is filled with contradictions. It has to hide from us, for example, the fact that when we hold on to our anger to punish others, we imprison ourselves. Another secret it has to keep is that our unforgiving thoughts create a hole in our hearts, not only causing a sense of loss and sadness but also keeping us from experiencing inner peace and love. One reason forgiveness is so difficult is because our egos attempts to convince us that it is better and safer for us to hate than to love. They cling to a belief system that makes fear, conflict, indifference, and unhappiness top priorities, and they insist that expressing love is just insane.
I like to think that perhaps we are really insane only when we are not allowing ourselves to experience and express our love. There is always a choice to be made: We can listen to the voice of love or to the voice of ego. How can we tell when it is the ego talking? The voice of the ego always comes from fear and always feels like crap. It leaves us in a state of conflict, not peace. When we listen to the unforgiving mind of the ego, it will give us countless reasons why we should not forgive, always hiding the fact that when we don't forgive we are the ones who suffer and lose our sense of peace.

Waoh! This particular product is very very great,it has the ability to provide us double sensation at a time,its a real 2 in 1 classical product,i love it so much and i'm so confident in the usage.
My boyfriend and I LOVE these condoms!, ,
Bottom Line: I would recommend to a friend
There is no competition no question asked it is the best condom no the market today. in both mine and my Girlfriends minds
We both love the hot cold feeling.
I've read a ton of really negative reviews and many really positive reviews about this, so I was a bit nervous to try it. My boyfriend and I liked these a lot! I didn't feel any warming only cold, but it was nice and my boyfriend said his felt warming and tingly. Overall I'd recommend them and we would use them again!, ,
Feels like OMG
there awesome.
I think the sensation is amazing and feels great, however; my wife doesn't particularly care for it. If you have a partner as intense as you, this may be a pretty interesting condom, but otherwise, it may actually distract her from you. -.-
Very exciting for the first couple times but then gets boring and not too pleasant..kinda thick considering I enjoy the ribbed ones. Wish my boyfriend didn't buy a 12 pack
Pros: Exciting
Cons: A little on the thick side
My boyfriend picked this up on a whim. Tried a packet with several different styles and I LOVED the Fire and Ice, and he liked Twisted. I would recommend this to all my friends :) Awesome job Trojan
my friend is using this too!! it was fantastic!!!
wife thrilled
i think these condoms are great my g/f actually asks to use these over any others so clearly she likes them as well. they provide a great tingling sensation and an awesome experience
Pros: feels great definitely a whole new feeling for a great sense of pleasure and my girlfriend loves them too
Cons: i bought ribbed condoms at the same time and now i dont want to use these ever again lol

The smooth, souled up, jazzed out vocals of Mr Ben Westbeech are infectious by themselves. Combine that with the new tracks and production on his new album and you have one most catchiest of record that should be scored as hit no.2 for this Bristol Bread Londoner.
His latest single "Something For The Weekend" has just been released and is available via iTunes HERE.
I got lucky enough to hear the album, which is set for release on the world September 12th, and it is an absolute killer. The combination of soul, disco, house, into what is going to a be a live full band show is something extra special. As anybody who may have read any of my prior posts I like lots and lots of bass and can't really say I am a huge fan of the house genre.
Despite that, I really can't get enough of this album. The single itself has been housed and hummed in my brain for at least a week. The feel good vibes and title go perfectly together, and the video is, lets be honest, pretty much something every guy would love to get as his little something something for the weekend. Can't imagine, the shots where Ben is looking exulted and happy, spraying champagne everywhere, took a great deal of acting skills.
Soo now that I've finished gushing about my most current music crush, it is time to watch some film. Check the single vid below along with a brand spanking new vid from his album preview party in a very very sweaty loft in East London. Don't belittle the camera man, the bouncing just over halfway through is actually the floor itself moving as the crowd got their groove on.
I'm in there too, so keep an eye out for my grinning face and sick, original dance moves!
Ben Westbeech / There's More To Life Than This, Album Launch, London / 28.07.2011 from selective pressure + on Vimeo.

My Grandma's Dresser

My Saturday Project
My Grandma passed away last year. I was really fond of this old dresser. I used it when I would stay with her and it was my moms when she was young. It still has the "peace & love" paper in the drawers from when my mom was a teenager.
I sanded it, primed it and was going to paint it today. Until the wind kicked in. I couldn't help but wonder if that was my Grandma disapproving of me altering her dresser. I will post a picture when I finally finish it. I chose this aqua color......but was really torn between green or even yellow. I still might change my mind.

Growing fast!
The kids are growing FAST! Wish I could slow it down a bit. I am aware how precious these moments are. We have one shot with our kids. I am thinking about summer as a working mom now! That's pretty new this past year. It has it's benefits, but I miss our adventures. So......this summer will be very action packed. I have not been taking pictures.........that kills me! Hoping this summer the motivation will find me. Started a diet, a combo of Ideal Protein, Advocare and my own twist. I will be surprised if I do this. Never been much of a diet person. Love to exercise, and can't wait for warm weather. Wish me luck!!!!

Banana's on the wall
I guess I'm getting old, because I crashed on the couch when we got home. The boys never let me have "lazy" time. When mommy is out of commission the house takes a hit. This is where the bananas come into play. I guess eating it was not half as fun as squishing it and throwing it on my wall. Let's just say I finally calmed myself down. For this one, I opted to put myself in a time-out. That's what I get for thinking I could sit down and relax on a Saturday!
I hope your weekend is a little more relaxing!

Took school off today to play!
I enjoyed getting my photography stuff out...it's been months since I did something with the kids with the backdrops. I posted a b&w to my www.apey365.blogspot.com but here are a couple color shots. He could not wait to take the suspenders off. His payment for modeling was chocolate of course. What a little poser. :)

Things are normal around here. Busy, but normal. Connor was being difficult one morning and didn't want to get dressed for school. I hopped in the shower as Tony said he would take care of it. A couple minutes later Tony comes in and says good-bye, I took care of Connor and he's getting dressed. I asked "what did you do"? Tony replies, "I talked to him". A couple minutes later Connor comes into the bathroom all dressed and says, "mom, wanna see how dad got me to get dressed? (as he pulls out a $5 bill out of his t-shirt pocket"). Wow!!! I am pretty sure this guy has our number. It should be interesting to see how we survive raising these 3 boys. It gets harder the older they get, in my opinion. They just get smarter as we get older...not fair!

My oldest is 7 today!
My oldest boy is 7 today. I am so very proud of him. You would expect me to say that on his Birthday especially! He REALLY is a sweety! A genuine kid who just likes to have fun. I love my buddy so much.
We celebrated last Saturday at our house with some friends and family. Spider man showed up is his mustang. All the kids ran to see him and said it was a costume. The Yakima Spidy drives with his mask off. They all laughed at all his tricks, including the adults. There were some hecklers in the crowd, Cooie and his friends. They wold not join in but had no problem telling spidy he was a "fake". That's my middle child.....keep in it real.
Happy Birthday to the most wonderful 7 year old in my world.....he's the light of my life along with his brothers of course.

I decided one morning, it would be a good idea to squirt toothpaste on my grandparents bathroom mirror. When confronted, I again denied it. It baffled my grandparents. Even a week later at dinner my grandfather decided $1 might entice the delinquent. My brother decided $1 was pretty good payoff for admitting to something he did not do. Still, no peep out of me.
I promise, today I have grown out of this. God, has decided to grant me with 3 little sneaky boys. I know that pay backs are a "you know what" but man on man.....why "3" sneaky little boys. They are really giving me a run for my money.
So, here is my sincere apology for all my sneakiness...I AM SOOOOOOO SORRRRRYYYY!

Daniel Jeremiah, a former NFL Scout who now runs MoveTheSticks.com, joined us on the Z-Report Draft Show on 1560 The Game and talked about Rolando McClain, the Texans draft choice, Alabama CB Kareem Jackson, wrestling and much, much more. He is one of the top talent evaluators in the media and I think you'll enjoy the discussion. Make sure and send this link to your friends who also follow the NFL draft.
Podcast: Daniel Jeremiah from MoveTheSticks.com talks draft
23 Responses
Kareem Jackson in the 20 spot? And you respect this guy? There is no way they draft Kareem Jackson #20. I think Mr. Jeremiah needs to do some more research.
You do realize that he's watching tape on the guy and none of us are right? So he needs to do more "research" because his ratings from watching the films on players (as a former NFL scout) don't match up with Kiper or McShay's or even Mayock's? Zero of those guys have worked as scouts for an NFL team. While my scout buddy doesn't have a 1st round grade on Kareem Jackson, I'm not going to down Daniel Jeremiah since he's putting in the time and actually doing the research necessary.
Good guest, I thoroughly enjoy his Twitterin.
Kareem Jackson at number 20? Yikes, I am not sure I can go along with that one. I think you could move back and pick him up.
Does Safety Myron Rolle fit with what the Texans do on defense? This guy seems like the real deal and we know he has the smarts. Do you think that he would take the Frank Okam route? In other words, he could be a beast but is more interested in other things like life after football. Unlike that linebacker we drafted in the first round who believes that no one on the other side of the line of scrimmage should live.
Considering the fact that he's a later round pick, I don't know if it makes much sense for him to go the football route.
Doublerods LZ,
On SC tonight Adam Schefter speculated that Buffalo would trade Marshawn Lynch before the draft. Would you be happy if the Texans went after him and what would it take to get him (3rd maybe)?
I would love to hive him as a football player, but he is one indiscretion away from being suspended from the league so a 3rd is the highest the Bills could get for him which means they would probably be best suited just keeping him.
Could you explain why Ryan Mathews is considered to be a far superior prospect to Ben Tate and Montario Hardesty? They all seem similar in build and speed and were successful at the college level. However, Tate and Hardesty had their success in the SEC, while Mathews experienced his in the WAC which isn't exactly known for its stout defenses. I admit that I did not see but maybe one game that Fresno State played in last year, so where is the hype coming from?
Mathews plays a tad faster than the other two, but not significantly faster. He does have a great build (so the other two), but he's a straight north/south runner and he's got wiggle too to make people miss along with elite level balance. I do, however, think you bring up a pretty good point. Is Mathews a better value pick in the 1st than Hardesty in the 2nd or maybe Tate in the 3rd? Very fair question.
I'd take Weatherspoon barking like a dog over McClain taking a time out for tea and crumpettes anyday. You had some opposition on the show today when you brought up the "war daddy" line, but just remind everyone that they would rather have Cushing / Antonio Smith than Greenwood / Weaver. War Daddy/just does job.
Doublerods M.F.
I think the player I see the widest spread on where he is going in the draft is Earl Thomas, well maybe behind Clausen. Lots of guys have him going in the early 20s, while others have him 10-11. Do you know what could be causing this spread because I see plenty of teams 11-20 that could use him.
Hey LZ, this off topic, but check out this sweet video. The sweet starts around the 2:00 mark.
Kareem Jackson would be a great pick only if the Texans traded down.
Assuming that Earl Thomas and one of the CBs (Wilson, McCourty, etc.)are still available at 20, my question is are the Texans better with:
a) Thomas, Pollard, Quin and Reeves or
b) K. Wilson/McCourty, Pollard, Quin and E. Wilson
Great question and I don't know the answer. It also depends on if the Texans see Thomas as a CB.
Hi LZ,
I here the Texans are bringing in Robert Johnson the safety from Utah. I here he is projected in the 4th round. Tough kid and playmaker in college. Good pick in later round.
Hi LZ,
I here the Texans are bringing in Robert Johnson the safety from Utah. I here he is projected in the 4th round. Hi LZ,
I here the Texans are bringing in Robert Johnson the safety from Utah. I here he is projected in the 4th round. <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j_ourKzKOnY What are your thoughts on Johnson ?
What's up Lance,
Your boy's mock is pretty weak. Granted he's been a scout but how can Seattle pass on Trent Williams at 6 he's a perfect fit for Gibbs system. I believe Holmgren and company put company put a CB in the first round talk to rest when they traded for Brown. Think they'd take Earl Thomas there over Haden anyway. Can't comprehend Kareem Jackson over Kyle Wilson either. Why would Baltimore go Gronkowski in the 1st when he can be had in the 2nd and you have a glaring hole at corner. Finally, there's no way Sean Weatherspoon falls to 32. The Saints have to go DE after cutting Charles Grant. They'll go Everson Griffin there. What do you think Lance?
Big Milstead
I agree about not passing on Trent Williams. There are two things at work with Jeremiah going Berry to Seattle. First, he says that Pete Carroll is best friends with Monte Kiffin and Kiffin pumps up Berry to Carroll every chance he gets. Secondly, I think Jeremiah is under the impression that Seattle won't draft an offensive linemen in the first with Gibbs there but that is a myth. Gibbs likes quality tackles.
Wow, "gentleman's linebacker" carries such a heavy punch I felt the air through my radio speaker. Funny as hell, too.
Would you take Arthur Jones as 4th rounder even if he's coming off injury? I think this guy will be a steal in the later rounds
I would look at him carefully, yes.
Hi LZ,
I here the Texans are bringing in Robert Johnson the safety from Utah. I here he is projected in the 4th round.

I here you have know business posting you're comments hear. Did you here that?
How about the Texans trade back with someone…stay in the first and pick up a late 2nd…..draft Jahvid Best in the first, take Lamar Houston and Kareem Jackson in the 2nd…..we'd be the shizzle….this is what Darryl Morey would do….
Is it fair to make a comparison between Rolando McClain and Mario Williams? Williams seems to lack that nasty streak we'd all like to see.
It's fine to be a genteel Carolina gentleman away from the football field, but it would be nice if he was more of a hell-raiser on the field.
Maybe Jay Glazer and Brian Cushing can help him tap into his darkside like they're trying to do with DeMeco Ryans. Is this the year Reliant becomes the new "House of Pain"?
I went to two members of the Texans three years ago to discuss MMA training with Saul Soliz here in Houston because I thought that defensive linemen and offensive linemen would benefit a great deal from that in terms of leverage and core strength and they thought I was crazy. Oh, okay.
I noticed a mock draft that has the Texans taking OG Mitch Petrus from Arkansas. What do you think of him?
Very strong, but average athlete. He won't be a Texan, I don't think.
Great stuff, Lance! I can't wait to see who the Texans pick in this deep draft. Hopefully, GM Rick Smith returns to his 2006 form and drafts 3 future pro bowlers.
I'm even more excited about Dog Day at Minute Maid Park today! Just kidding. That would be fun to take my dog to a game, but I would never buy a ticket for him. What a waste of money. I guess I'm not a real Astros fan.
Do you think the Texans would trade for Haynesworth, Marshywn Lynch, or LaRon Landry? I saw that they are on the trading block. I think each would be a good fit. Or do they all have a glaring problem. I know Haynesworth is lazy, but what about the others?
Doubtful on all three unless the pricetag was favorable.
Looks like your guy had it figured out moths ago. We just need to pay better attention!

Redeemer Evangelical Church has undergone many transitions in the past 30 years. The latest change has resulted in a new building at 2000 Diamond Dr.
In the early 1970s, Grace Lutheran Church closed down and the property was sold to Ed Grothus, which became part of the "Black Hole."
The congregation disbanded and members moved on to other churches. One such church was Immanuel Lutheran Church in Santa Fe.
In 1999, Immanuel Lutheran Church voted to lay the groundwork for planting a new congregation of the Lutheran Church — Missouri Synod in Los Alamos County. In January 2003, lay lead services began with Pastor Douglas Escue of Immanuel Lutheran Church traveling from Santa Fe once a month to administer the sacrament of Holy Communion.
On April 25, 2003, Immanuel Lutheran Church purchased land at 2000 Diamond Dr. in Los Alamos. On Sept. 7, 2003, formal services were led every Sunday afternoon by Pastor Escue in the side chapel of the United Church in Los Alamos.
In February 2004, Rev. Mark Larson, Dr. Erich Helge, Mr. Bernie Braunschweig and Mr. Dan Bacon led mission development and financial workshops. On Dec. 5, 2004, a total of $300,980 was pledged through a three year Sustained Giving Stewardship Emphasis program, along with $232,000 through a Jean Elder/Elsie Seek memorial gift.

A gum biopsy is a surgery in which a small piece of gingival (gum) tissue is removed for examination.
Biopsy - gingiva (gums)
A painkiller is sprayed into the mouth in the area of the abnormal gum tissue. You may also have an injection of numbing medicine. A small piece of gum tissue is removed and checked for problems in the lab.
You may be told not to eat for a few hours before the biopsy.
The painkiller put in your mouth should numb the area during the procedure. You may feel some tugging or pressure. If there is bleeding, the blood vessels may be sealed off with an electric current or laser. This is called electrocauterization. After the numbness wears off, the area may be sore for a few days.
This test is done to look for the cause of abnormal gum tissue.
This test is only done when gum tissue looks abnormal.
Avoid brushing the area where the biopsy was performed for 1 week.
