To Face Death, A Christian Perspective of Three Types of Death
Bible Summary. The Bible tells us how to face death. From God's perspective it is not physical death that we should fear. Physical death is only the soul being separated from our physical body. There are really three types of death. Besides physical death, there are spiritual and eternal death. Spiritual death is separation from God because of our sin. God cannot be in the presence of sin (disobedience to God). Spiritual death started with Adam and continues today whenever we sin against God. Spiritual death is only a temporary condition, but eternal death is forever. Eternal death is eternal separation from God. If we have not accepted Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior, we will face death that is eternal on Judgment Day. See below for more commentary and scriptures concerning facing death.

Face Death From God's Perspective.
From a Christian perspective death is something we need to fully understand and discussed in order to face death from the right perspective. From God perspective it is not physical death that we should be fearful of facing. Physical death only kills the body and not the soul. It is spiritual and eternal death that causes deadly harm to our soul.
See Scripture Commentary: Matthew 10:28 advises us to face death from a godly and spiritual perspective.
Face Death That Is Physical.
Physical death is the separation of the inner man from the body. Many of us are so focused on the physical death, but it is the soul that needs to be cared for first. We should not be scared of physical death.
See Scripture Commentary: James 2:26 advises us that physical death is just the separation of man's spirit from his physical body.
Face Death That Is Spiritual.
Spiritual death is separation from God because of our sin. From a Christian perspective this is a death experience that we face everyday. Mankind first suffered spiritual death when Adam and Eve sinned in the Garden of Eden.
See Scripture Commentary: Ephesians 2:1 advises us about spiritual death as a result of unrepentant sin in our lives.
Face Death That Is Eternal.
Eternal death is eternal separation from God. If we have not accepted Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior, we will face death that is eternal on Judgment Day. Eternal death happens because man chooses sin (disobedience to God), and thus, we choose to be separated from God. Separation from God first starts off as spiritual death, but it will eventually turn to eternal death.
See Scripture Commentary: Revelation 21:8 advises us on the consequences of facing eternal death.

Carlos Mencia not for the easily offended
SAN ANGELO, Texas - What: Carlos Mencia, C 4 UrSelf Tour
When: 8 p.m. today
Where: McNease Convention Center, 500 Rio Concho Drive
Cost: $36.50 general admission, $25 for military
Contact: 325-658-6464
Carlos Mencia will say anything — and he does — but the comedian offers no apologies for his shows or the statements he makes.
The Honduran-born, Los Angeles-raised comedian is well-known on the comedy circuit for his sharp-witted humor and for poking fun at himself, his life and others. Mencia blends humor and reality into a show that he's confident will make his audience laugh.
"Because I, unlike a lot of other comedians, I find a way to make reality funny," Mencia said in a telephone interview last week. "What I'm not going to do is condescend myself — that's what some people want — that's what some other comedians do. If that's your type of comedy, please go see those people."
Mencia returns to San Angelo today, bringing his style of laughter to the McNease Convention Center on his C 4 UrSelf Tour.
The comedian has had guest spots in popular television shows, cameos in movies and has had several successful comedy tours but is perhaps best known for his hit Comedy Central series "Mind of Mencia." In the series, Mencia shared what goes on inside his head with his audience. At times during the series and after, Mencia has been pegged by some critics as a racist, an accusation the comedian vehemently denies.
"When have I ever said one race is superior to another? There are people who don't live in the real world." Mencia said. "I've asked people who say that, 'What did I say to make you believe that? Specifically?' and no one can answer that."
As far as the language and terminology that Mencia uses in his shows, he said he finds it ironic that he has invented only one of those words.
"Dee Dee Dee. It describes stupid people. I didn't invent those words; they were taught to me. I use those words so that they have power to make people think," Mencia said.
Much of Mencia's comedy is based on his life, which he says led to what he has to share with his audience. He grew up in Los Angeles and still calls it home, although his lifestyle has changed since his childhood days, when the comedian says things were lean at times. But he said growing up poor makes for better comedy and helps him perform his job, which he says is "to make people laugh."
"The richer the comedian grew up, the less edgy the comedian is. Living poor, that's what they have to make funny," Mencia said. "… My job is literally to bring joy to the world one laugh at a time. I want to make you laugh. I want to make you happy."
"I grew up in the projects, I grew up in the negative. It's hard to believe anyone can make it out of that. I set out to prove to the world and to myself that I'm worthy. When I stopped doing the show, I had an identity crisis. 'Who am I?' Well, I know what I'm not — I'm not a drug dealer, I'm not a gang member, I'm not a dropout, I'm not a criminal. I'm the best that I can be at any moment in time."
Mencia said he feels that everyone has a God-given gift. His is laughter, and he enjoys sharing that gift with the world. He says at the end of the day, he knows the purpose he serves and challenges others to find their purpose and to take life in stride.
"Some of the happiest people I know live in the poorest countries." Mencia said. "I was born in the murder capital of the world (at the time), but people there were happy, just happy that on that given day, they didn't get shot."
"In America, we're ticked off because it rained too much or it rained too little. If the worst thing in the world is something like that, go to church, get down on your knees and thank the Lord that that's the only thing you have to be angry about."
Through the years

June 5, 2012
By Hans A. von Spakovsky
The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission has been known to defy common sense in the past, but this time it has outdone itself. A recent hiring "Guidance" for employers would not only place co-workers and customers at unnecessary risk, it could make it even harder for some minority workers to find jobs.
The new guidance severely restricts employers' ability to run criminal background checks on prospective employees. The EEOC claims that such checks have a "disparate impact" on racial minorities and are therefore discriminatory.
This is a classic example of a federal agency reaching far beyond its statutory authority. After all, the EEOC has no power to issue regulations. But it gets around this bar by issuing guidance documents that act as a de facto substitute for regulations. Courts, employers and lawyers look to such guidance as standards that employers must meet to avoid liability.
The EEOC now asserts that the long-standard business practice of checking for past criminal activity by job applicants violates Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
Felons are not a protected class in this law's text. Title VII only bars discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex and national origin. What makes it difficult for felons -- black or white -- to find work is not racial discrimination, but their own past decisions to commit crimes that carry the risks of detection and punishment.
Let's say a hotel decides that it's too risky for its guests to hire a murderer or a burglar. That's a sound business decision, not discrimination. But according to the EEOC, private employers who make such a risk assessment are out of line.
It's an odd position, especially considering that the federal government itself broadly bans felons from holding certain jobs, such as airport security screeners or child care workers in federal facilities -- such as, say, the EEOC. Only in Washington could blanket exclusions based on the risk of repeated criminal behavior be legitimate when imposed by the federal government, but suspect and discriminatory when imposed by private industry.
In issuing this "guidance," the EEOC makes two leaps of faith. First, it assumes the criminal justice system's handling of violent and non-violent offenses is itself discriminatory -- even though there is no evidence of racial bias. Second, it discounts reams of well-established evidence regarding the recidivism of felons and the enormous liability faced by employers when their employees commit crimes. "Negligent hiring lawsuits" against employers are now commonplace whenever workplace violence or other work-related crime occurs.
The EEOC's groundless guidance seems fated to backfire. It likely will make it more difficult, not easier, for some minority job applicants to find employment.
Studies show that employers who check criminal backgrounds are more likely to hire African-American workers. Why? Background checks actually boost the hiring prospects of African-Americans with no criminal convictions. Deprived of that resource, employers are more likely to "hire defensively," declining to hire African-Americans because of the higher incidence of criminal convictions in that demographic group.
Congress has already taken some action. On May 9, the House amended the Commerce, Justice, and Science appropriations bill to prohibit the EEOC from using any funds to enforce the guidance. A report issued by the Senate Appropriations Committee also criticized the guidance, noting that it "may limit the ability of conscientious employers to hire with confidence and create conflict with Federal and state laws."
But as long as the EEOC Guidance remains, it leaves employers in a Catch-22 situation. They must choose between risking liability for supposedly violating Title VII (by conducting criminal background checks), and risking liability for criminal conduct by employees (by abandoning background checks).
All the while, minority job applicants will see their employment prospects fade.

Incremental backup failed once, do i have to re-run Full backup?
We're using Backup Exec 12.5, and run a full backup of our Exchange server once every month, and then a daily incremental backup. This months full backup was successfull, and the incremental backups has also been sucessful, until the one that we ran the 15th ("Initialization failure on...Second storage group") Yesterday, the incremental backup ran successfully again, without any action taken.
My question is: Will I be able to restore this backup, if needed, although one of the incremental backups was "failed". Or do I have to run a new full backup to secure it?
Comments 3 Comments • Jump to latest comment
No need to run the full again. Incremental backup ran on 16th would have backedup the changes that had happened since 14th incremental backup.
PS: Consider running FULL backups atleast once in a week.
You should run your full backup more frequently. Since you are doing incremental backups, to restore somthing you need to restore the full backup + ALL the incremental backups since the full backup. Imagine the time and effort required, if you need to restore some thing at the end of the month. You have to restore your full backup and 20+ incremental backups.
Coming back to your question. You should run a full backup after the failure of an incremental job. This is because the incremental job will reset the archive bit and the files will not be backed up. If you run an incremental backup, it will only contain the files modified/added after the 15th. You will not get the files modified/added between the 14th and 15th because their archive bit would have been reset by the failed job. The same applies to the modified time method because the timestamp of the incremental job will be used as a reference.
With Exchnage Incremental Job failure, I personnally would sugges you should run another full - it kind of depends on where the failure occured however, but if Exchange truncted the logs even though the backup was unsuccessful it woudl means that ou do not have a valid sequence of log fiels to roll through to do a restroe of yoru information tore.
Also like the others suggest a Monthly full is not a recommended time period. If your Exchange server is relatively busy then just at a basic level that length of time will means that the GRT catalog process can suffer from performance issues as the incremental dates build up. It also means that if you lost one of your incremental sets (media damaged etc) then the potential loss of ability to restore data would cover a longer timespan.

Williams Sisters, Nadal Set to Defend Olympic Titles in London
Venus and Serena Williams of the U.S. and Spain's Rafael Nadal will have the chance to defend their Olympic tennis titles after being named among the players competing at this year's Games.
Roger Federer and Stanislas Wawrinka, winners of the men's doubles in Beijing in 2008, will also compete again together on the grass courts of Wimbledon as part of the Swiss team.
Nineteen of the current top 20 in both the men's and women's singles rankings are scheduled to play, with only Mardy Fish of the U.S. and France's Marion Bartoli missing out. Russia's Elena Dementieva has retired and won't be defending the women's singles title.
"We are delighted to see the strongest ever field in the history of the Olympic tennis event," International Tennis Federation President Francesco Ricci Bitti said in a statement. "Since tennis's return to the Olympics in 1988, the event has continued to grow at each games, with the current generation of players all embracing this unique opportunity to represent their country."
The Williams sisters have been included for both the singles competition and the doubles, which they won last time. They have strong records at the All England Club, with Venus taking the singles title five times and Serena four times.
Nadal, an 11-time Grand Slam champion, has won twice at Wimbledon and was runner-up to current top-ranked Novak Djokovic last year. Serbia's Djokovic won the Olympic bronze medal four years ago.
There are 64 entries for each of the singles tournaments at the Olympics, with a limit of four players for each country per gender. The doubles events, including mixed doubles for the first time since 1924, will have 32 teams.

Super Bowl Squares 2014: Download Printable Betting Squares For Broncos-Seahawks
Download/Print our Lakers Nation Super Bowl Squares by clicking HERE or on the picture above.
Super Bowl XLVIII will take place this Sunday Feb. 2nd at MetLife Stadium with the Denver Broncos going head-to-head against the Seattle Seahawks for the Vince Lombardi trophy. The NBA will only partake in one game to make room for the biggest American sporting event with the Orlando Magic taking on the Boston Celtics.
If you'd like to make things interesting for Super Bowl XLVIII this Sunday, then we recommend you try our, Lakers Nation Super Bowl Squares sheet. The game is solely based on luck for the most part and with a piece of paper and a hat, nothing else is required.
Rules On How To Play Super Bowl Squares:
1. Get some friends, if you don't have friends reflect on your life.
2. Download our Lakers Nation Super Bowl Squares Sheet.
3. Tell your friends to write their names in the empty WHITE squares.
4. Create a fee amount for the game (average fee is usually $1 to $5 per box).
5. Write numbers from 0-9 on a piece of paper and cut each number out and put it in a hat.
6. Have each person draw out one number and write it on the GREY square up top (Broncos) until hat is empty.
7. Put numbers 0-9 back in the hat and redraw once again.
8. Write down numbers drawn on the GREY square bottom left side (Seahawks) until hat is empty.
9. Place the sheet in a noticeable view for everyone to see.
10. Watch and enjoy Super Bowl XLVIII.
From each quarter that passes, write down the score. You will use the last digit in each team's score from every quarter that ends. So for example, if the Seahawks are winning 13-10 at the end of the 1st quarter, the friend who has their name in the Seahawks number "3″ square that crosses with the Bronco's number "0″ square wins and collects the pot.
Repeat this process each quarter until the final score. Keep in mind that there should be 4 "pots" that are paid out after each quarter to those winners. The price will be determined by the coordinator. The final score winner will collect the biggest amount from the pot followed by the halftime winner (2nd most) and the 1st and 3rd quarter pots usually value to the equal or least amount.
The kickoff to Super Bowl 2014 will begin at 6:30 pm ET on FOX this Sunday. Good luck!

An ideal match for me is an active person that can stop and enjoy the simple things in life, somebody that is genuinely happy, somebody that cares about their family, health and the environment.... (I could keep going but that is what a first date is for)

Saturday, December 3, 2011
© Copyright 2015 Gwinnett Daily Post
Writing this column for my Thursday deadline, I have no idea how Saturday's SEC championship game between the University of Georgia and Louisiana State University will turn out. As a Tennessee alum, I don't really have a dog in the fight, so to speak, but I'm pulling for Georgia because I admire coach Mark Richt and because, well, I live in Georgia. If I lived in Louisiana ...
Never mind. I can't even go there.
Whether UGA wins or not, Coach Richt will probably remain a hero to most people in the state -- for now, at least. Until he once again fails to win 10 games or beat Florida or make it to the SEC title game. Then all those 35-year-olds blogging from their parents' basements will get busy, and all the "fire Mark Richt" websites will once again have enough traffic to sell ads.
Here's what I don't understand about sports, even after nearly 40 years as a player, coach, and (above all) fan: why in the world would anyone who loves UGA football ever want to fire Mark Richt?
I keep hearing, "Well, he's a good guy, but ..." OK, first of all, in major college sports, simply being a decent person is no small thing, as I believe a couple of recent national scandals have illustrated rather graphically. Second, it's not as though Richt doesn't have impressive coaching credentials. He's won 10 or more games on multiple occasions, captured SEC championships, beaten Georgia Tech almost every year.
Based on resume alone, he's easily one of the 10 or 15 best coaches in the country. Maybe even one of the top five. No, he's not Nick Saban or Les Miles or Bob Stoops or Urban Meyer, but he's certainly in the next group. And some of you think that's not good enough? Tell me this: how many of you are among the nation's top 10 pharmacists or insurance salesmen?
I've got news for you, Dawg fans: Nick Saban and Les Miles and Bob Stoops and Urban Meyer aren't coming to Athens, if for no other reason than that UGA has the second-highest academic standards in the conference. You think that's what Nick Saban is looking for -- top-flight academics?
You've already got the best coach you're likely to get. Instead of constantly criticizing him for being "too nice" while winning about nine games a year, you should spend your time praying he doesn't leave for Tallahassee once Florida State shows Jimbo Fisher (definitely NOT top 10) the proverbial door.
Take it from a Tennessee fan. We had a pretty good coach, one with a national championship under his belt, who was a pretty decent guy while also winning pretty big most of the time. That just wasn't enough for the Vol Nation, who couldn't wait to see him gone.
Look how that's worked out.

Electronic Arts has confirmed that Titanfall for the Xbox 360 will be delayed by two weeks. Previously set to release on March 11 along with the Xbox One and PC versions, the Xbox 360 port will see release on March 25 in North America and March 28 in Europe.
EA's Patrick Soderlund posted the update on its website, who says that Bluepoint, the team developing the X360 version, needs more time for polish.
In these last few weeks before launch, Respawn is in the final stages of polishing the Xbox One and PC versions of the game. Bluepoint is doing the same with the Xbox 360 version. To give them the time they need to put the finishing touches on the current-gen version of the game, we are moving the Xbox 360 ship date to March 25 in North America and March 28 in Europe. The extra two weeks will ensure the full world of Xbox gamers has an awesome experience.
Respawn plans to a launch a beta test for the upcoming FPS for PC and Xbox One. No date has been confirmed for the beta yet.

With the recent increase in the revenues from the Crown Estate meaning that Her Majesty received an increase in her official expenditure this year, we thought we'd work out just how much each person pays in taxes for the upkeep of the Monarchy for this year alone.
Traditionally, it is held that each person in the UK pays around 62p per year for the Monarchy, but this is a calculation that would have been done at the time of the Civil List and grants-in-aid still being in existence. We wanted to produce an accurate figure of just how much we do pay now that the Sovereign Grant act is firmly in motion, so we did a little research. Here is what we have found.
So, for this year, the Monarchy would cost every person in the UK around 58 pence (exact figure being 57.6 pence).
That's 58 pence, per person per year. Remaining astonishingly good value.
To put it into perspective for our overseas readers, here's what it would be in your respective currencies:

The monarchy WILL be abolished. The only question is when.
I don't think it matters how 'cheap' they appear to be I still prefer democracy

The GL1 offers both versatility to meet all exposure challenges, and ease of use when you're happy to let the camera make all the choices. Amazingly sophisticated circuitry and computer algorithms analyze the light coming through the lens to deliver proper exposure automatically under almost any lighting condition. You can also easily adjust the exposure system in any one of several creative ways to meet specific needs. By turning the easily accessible Program Dial to select one of seven exposure modes, you control how you want the video to look.
Shutter Priority (Tv)
Need to make a crystal clear video of the swing of a golf club and golf ball in flight? Want to accentuate the motion of a racing car by blurring its motion? Or shoot under very low lighting conditions? These are just three of the things you can do simply by selecting one of 12 shutter speeds, from the slow (1/60 second) to the ultra fast (1/15,000 second) when in Shutter-Priority Mode (Tv on the Program Dial). The GL1 will automatically select the aperture for a proper exposure. If you have selected a shutter speed that is either too high or too low for the light conditions, a warning will flash in the viewfinder. Use of the built-in ND filter may be required.
Aperture Priority (Av)
The ability to adjust the lens opening (aperture) gives you the creative ability to adjust depth of focus. With larger openings decreasing the amount of the background that's in focus, and smaller openings increasing the focus area, you can select one of 9 apertures from f/1.5 to f/11 on the Exposure Dial by selecting Av on the Program Dial. The GL1 will automatically select the shutter speed to match the chosen aperture, giving you the proper exposure. If you have selected an aperture that is too large or too small for the lighting conditions, a warning will flash in the viewfinder. Use of the built-in ND filter may be required.
Nothing can confound an exposure system like a singer spotlighted on a dark stage. The GL1 comes to the rescue with Spotlight Mode (dark triangle with white body shape on the Program Dial). The camera will automatically adjust exposure for the center of the frame (the brighter singer) rather than the darkness of the stage. This will prevent the person from showing up overexposed or blooming against a dark background. The result is a perfect exposure.
For those who want total control of all aspects of the exposure system, the GL1 offers Manual Mode (M on the Program Dial). You select the shutter speed, aperture and gain settings for full creative control. For fine exposure control, you have access to 27 shutter speeds, from 1/60 second to 1/15,000 second, and 23 aperture values, for half-stop adjustments from f/1.6 to closed. You also can adjust exposure using one of the five gain values between 0dB and +12dB.
Full Auto (Green Mode)
Green means "go." Set the GL1's Program Dial to Full Auto Mode (identified by the green rectangle) and the camera's sophisticated control system takes over, which means you don't have to worry about anything except being there to capture the moment on video. In this mode, your access to manual controls are restricted.
Auto Mode
Similar to Full Auto Mode, Auto Mode (A on the Program Dial) gives control of camera settings to the GL1, except for those functions you would like to control manually, including focus, exposure, and white balance.
Sand & Snow
Faced with a bright background such as a snow-covered mountain on which you want to record skiers or a bright beach scene? On the GL1's Program Dial select the Sand & Snow Mode (square with skier and sun). This will adjust the exposure so the subject will not appear underexposed against the bright background.
AE Shift
You may want to slightly adjust the image brightness to compensate for backlighting or for scenes that are being rendered slightly overexposed. When in Auto, Tv or Av Modes (selected on the Program Dial), you can engage AE Shift in the camera menu, then turn the menu dial to add or subtract a bit of exposure. There are 13 steps available, from -2 to +2. This is another level of creative control.
AE Lock
To hold the exposure at a particular setting, you can engage AE Lock on the GL1. In all modes except Manual and Full Auto (Green), just press the Exposure Dial, and the current settings are locked in place.

Finally, those long-suffering New York and Boston sports devotees have something to cheer about. Sunday's Super Bowl matchup between the Giants and Patriots means the rabid body-painted and foam-fingered fans in one of these Northeast metropolises will celebrate a sports championship for the first time since . . . last year.
But before the Boston Bruins won hockey's top prize — the Stanley Cup — last June, no team from these cities had made it this far since . . . the year before.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) -- Wildlife officials in Florida say the mystery monkey of Tampa Bay bit a woman during an unprovoked attack in St. Petersburg.
Florida Fish and Wildlife spokesman Gary Morse says the woman was sitting outside Tuesday when the monkey bit her on the back.
The wild Rhesus Macaque has become famous in the Tampa Bay area. It has a Facebook page and has been featured on Comedy Central's Colbert Report. The elusive monkey has been spotted numerous times in the Tampa Bay area in recent years.

Seven innings of tight baseball were overshadowed by a disastrous nine-run bottom of the 8th in Friday's series-opening 16-3 loss to #9 Arizona State.
Sun Devil starting pitcher Trevor Williams entered with plenty of pomp and circumstance surrounding him. The MLB draft is a fait accompli for the junior, but Friday night he fooled few batters as the Valpo offense scored three runs off him on nine hits.
The Crusaders scored first in the top of the third thanks to a two-run single from Chris Manning. Bryce Hara had started the inning with a leadoff walk.
Tanner Vavra took a Williams' fastball off the elbow to create a sacrifice situation for John Loeffler. The senior laid a picture-perfect bunt down the line towards first base that advanced both runners.
With Hara and Vavra both in scoring position, Manning laced a ball past Michael Benjamin's glove at third for the 2-0 lead.
Valpo saw its lead vanish into the Tempe night on a quirky play in the home half of the third inning. RJ Ybarra led off the frame with a hard-hit single down past a diving Andy Burns at third.
Drew Stankiewicz followed with a drive to left center that left the center fielder Hara completely befuddled. The ball bounced against the fence before Hara could spot it. By that time, left fielder Kyle Schneider had raced over to throw it in to the cutoff man Spencer Mahoney.
Stankiewicz was on third base as the ball reached Mahoney. The Valpo shortstop bobbled the catch allowing Stankiewicz to score on the triple and error.
A walk and a single followed before the Sun Devils took a 3-2 lead on their first of what would be three runs scored via the sacrifice fly.
Arizona State (23-11-1) pushed a run across in the 4th off Valpo starter Cole Webb on a Ybarra base hit. The single plated Trever Allen.
Valpo appeared in be store for a big inning in the 5th after Williams allowed a Loeffler sandwiched between two walks.
With the bases loaded and zero outs, Mahoney lifted a ball into left that was caught before Vavra tagged and scored.
Williams recorded his first - and only - strikeout of the game against Schneider in the next at-bat.
With runners on first and second base and two down, Billy Cribbs singled into left. Loeffler was waved in but a strong throw from Jake Peevyhouse just beat the Valpo first baseman in a bang-bang play at home plate.
The Sun Devils tacked on two runs in the fifth and one in the sixth to augment their lead to 7-3.
A nightmare nine-run 8th inning that began with a home run and ended with the third pitcher of the inning getting the third out, made an otherwise competitive game appear to be a slaughter.
Darin Gillies, Matt Dunbar, and Josh McAllister came on to record the final nine outs of the ball game. The trio combined to strike out six and allow three hits and no runs over the last three frames.
Valparaiso (14-22) and Arizona State continue their series tomorrow at 8:30pm CT. Chris DeBoo (2-5, 4.60) gets the start for Valpo opposite freshman lefty Ryan Kellogg (8-0, 2.28).

DENVER - A Colorado man may spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair after a stray bullet severely damaged his spinal cord. Investigators have no clue where the bullet came from.
In late June, Tomas Aguilar, 28, was barbecuing at his home near Federal Boulevard and 6th Avenue when he suddenly collapsed.
"I thought it was a firecracker," Aguilar said. "But then when I woke up at the hospital, they told me it was a stray bullet."
The bullet entered Aguilar's neck and passed through his spine, causing paralysis from his chest down.
Denver Police searched around Aguilar's neighborhood, but could not locate the source of the bullet. Police are now turning to the public's help, hoping a tip will come in.
"I have to keep pushing forward," Aguilar said from his room at Denver Health. "I want to be independent. Everything is different than it used to be."
Dr. Michael Blei, who has been helping Aguilar recover at Denver Health, says it is likely Aguilar will spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair.
"You never have a crystal ball," Dr. Blei said. "There is still some hope. You don't know for sure if there's going to be any recovery at all."
Dr. Blei and other hospital staff remarked on Aguilar's positive attitude about the ordeal.
"And he's an amazing person to put it behind him and say, 'Life goes on,'" Dr. Blei said. "Tomas doesn't know how much he helps the rest of the people here dealing with other injuries."
If you have any tips about this case you can call Metro Denver Crime Stoppers at (720) 913-STOP (7867).
A fund to help Aguilar has also been set up at Chase Bank under "Tomas Aguilar."

[ONE NIGHT ONLY] Bidder 70 tells the story of Tim DeChristopher, who, at age 26, made national headlines by derailing a 2008 government lease auction for oil and gas companies. DeChristopher, who simply held up the paddle he'd received after sneaking into the auction, saved $2 million of precious land. In this modern-day version of Edward Abbey's The Monkey Wrench Gang, DeChristopher grows from anonymous vigilante to outspoken, somewhat self-righteous activist. Set mostly in Utah, the film follows his efforts to spread awareness about the Bush administration's plan to give parcels of land to oil and natural gas companies. From West Virginia, where DeChristopher witnesses the horrors of mountaintop removal for the coal industry, to the fallout of the oil and gas industry in his home state of Utah, Bidder 70 charts the contemporary struggles of the environmental movement. While the film has beautiful shots of the American West, it grows cliché in its repetitive shots of an awe-filled DeChristopher walking through nature. And while the content is compelling, the narrative sometimes gets lost. The introduction of DeChristopher's cultish advocacy group, Peaceful Uprising, is less of a plot point than a commercial break, and the free press for the group is just as insincere as the Kony video. That said, the story does deliver a sense that individuals have the power to effect change.

text: Russian team prepares to penetrate Lake Vostok Science 07 January 11 by Duncan Geere NASA/GSFC Lake Vostok, which has been sealed off from the world for 14 million years, is about to be penetrated by a Russian drill bit.The lake, which lies four kilometres below the icy surface of Antarctica, is unique in that it's been completely isolated from the other 150 subglacial lakes on the continent for such a long time. It's also oligotropic, meaning that it's supersaturated with oxygen -- levels of the element are 50 times higher than those found in most typical freshwater lakes.Since 1990, the Arctic and Antarctic Research Institute in St Petersberg in Russia has been drilling through the ice to reach the lake, but fears of contamination of the ecosystem in the lake have stopped the process multiple times, most notably in 1998 when the drills were turned off for almost eight years.Now, the team has satisfied the Antarctic Treaty Secretariat, which safeguards the continent's environment, that it's come up with a technique to sample the lake without contaminating it. Valery Lukin told New Scientist: "Once the lake is reached, the water pressure will push the working body and the drilling fluid upwards in the borehole, and then freeze again." The next season, the team will bore into that frozen water to recover a sample whose contents can then be analysed.The drill bit currently sits less than 100 metres above the lake. Once it reaches 20-30 metres, the mechanical drill bit will be replaced with a thermal lance that's equipped with a camera. Time is short, however. It's possible that the drillers won't be able to reach the water before the end of the current Antarctic summer, and they'll need to wait another year before the process can continue.When the sample can be recovered, however, it's hoped that it'll shed light on extremophiles -- lifeforms that survive in extreme environments. Life in Lake Vostok would need adaptions to the oxygen-rich environment, which could include high concentrations of protective enzymes. The conditions in Lake Vostok are very similar to the conditions on Europa and Enceladus, so could also strengthen the case for extraterrestrial life.Don't miss: Architecture firm proposes buildings on rails (with pics) Duncan Geere is a senior staff writer at Wired.co.uk.

Chad Sexington Jan 7th 2011 We who have evolved in the pristine unsequestered atmosphere outside of the lake, are the extremophiles. It just goes to show how organic life can survive with so much less oxygen. Wow! phlogiston Jan 7th 2011 I hope they know what they're doing... Joe Kidd Jan 7th 2011 " "Once the lake is reached, the water pressure will push the working body and the drilling fluid upwards in the borehole, and then freeze again." The next season, the team will bore into that frozen water to recover a sample whose contents can then be analysed. "Maybe this is just explained poorly but I don't see how this gets around the contamination problem. On the first breach they seem to be relying on upward water pressure to push all of the contaminants back up into the bore hole. Seriously? My logic tells me that not only will they introduce contaminants into the lake itself but that the bore hole will simply freeze a mix of contaminated ice and non-contaminated lake water together - and this is what they will extract the following season. Are they nuts? I hope their nuclear arsenal is better designed than this.

A Simple Route to Highly Oriented and Ordered Nanoporous Block Copolymer Templates
Researchers at the University of Massachusetts Amherst have developed simple and environmentally friendly methods for fabricating nanopatterned templates and substrates with highly oriented and ordered nanodomains or nanostructures. Metal-coated block copolymer films with highly ordered nanoscale cylindrical pores oriented normal to the film surface can be fabricated by using simple solvent vapor annealing, film reconstruction, and glancing angle metal evaporation processes. By controlling the thickness of the metal layer and the thermal annealing conditions, two other types of metal-decorated, nanopatterned films with nanodots or nanoring-shaped voids can be generated. These metal-decorated films can be used as masks or templates for subsequent pattern transfer into underlying substrates with high fidelity via etching, or as scaffolds for the fabrication of arrays of nanoscopic elements from any material that can be evaporated, sputtered or electrochemically deposited into the voids of the nanopatterned films.

- Molecular Separation
- Highly precisely oriented and ordered nanodomains or nanostructures
- Simple, robust, rapid non-disruptive, and economic fabrication processes
- Environmentally friendly solvents (THF; toluene; ethanol)
- High-contrast etching into underlying substrates enabled with the etch-resistant metal layer/phase
- Multiple metal-decorated template structures for flexible design and generation of a variety of nanopatterned materials

A sharp increase in births has been reported by several large hospitals here, nine months after the 1965 blackout.
Mount Sinai Hospital, which averages 11 births daily, had 28 births on Monday. This was a record for the hospital; its previous one-day high was 18. All four of its delivery rooms and 14 labor rooms were constantly occupied.
At Bellevue there were 29 new babies in the nursery yesterday, compared with 11 a week ago and an average of 20. Columbia-Presbyterian averages 11 births daily and had 15 Monday; St. Vincent's averages 7 and had 10; Brookdale averages 10 and had 13, and Coney Island averages 5 and had 8. However, New York and Brooklyn Jewish Hospitals reported that their number of births was normal.
Asked to comment on the increase in births, Paul Siegel, a sociologist, said:
"The lights went out and people were left to interact with each other."
Mr. Siegel is directing a National Opinion Research Council study of the impact of the blackout on 1,300 persons.
The blackout started at 5:27 P.M. on November 9. The power failure plunged nearly the entire city into darkness, along with parts of eight states and one Canadian province. It affected 30 million persons.
In areas where the lights were restored in two to three hours the birth rate was reported normal yesterday. In some sections of the city, however, the lights remained off until 7 A.M. on Nov. 10.
Sociologists and obstetricians were reluctant to attribute the birth increase to the blackout. Some said, however, that the disruption in routine caused by the blackout and the absence of television might have contributed to the phenomenon.
"I know the exact date of conception of two patients," said Dr. Richard Hausknecht, an associate attending obstetrician at Mt. Sinai. "It was the night of the blackout."
Dr. Hausknecht, who specializes in fertility problems, said some couples who had sought vainly to conceive were apparently successful on the night of the blackout. He added:
"It's quite possible that there were a number of unplanned pregnancies."
Dr. Robert W. Hodge, a sociologist and co-director of the study, said:
"Our data show that most people wound up at home. They didn't have access
to a major source of
A total of 273 days have elapsed since Nov. 9. Eastman's Obstetrics, the standard textbook, states that birth occurs 270 days from the last ovulation or 282 days from the last menstrual period. A gradual rise occurs 10 days before and after these intervals and a plateau is reached for eight days.
Dr. Christopher Tietze, director of the National Committee on Maternal Health, said:
"I am skeptical until I see data from the entire city. There can be daily fluctuations in individual hospitals that can be misleading. If it should be true, I would think it's because people may have had trouble finding their accustomed contraceptives, or just because it was dark."
There were 16 births at Mt. Sinai yesterday, 13 at Columbia-Presbyterian and 10 at St. Vincent's, all above average.
The number of births was reported normal in Nassau and Suffolk Counties, many of whose commuters were stranded in the city Nov. 9, in Newark and Jersey City, which were not affected, and in hospitals in Albany, Rochester, New Haven and Providence, where the lights went on in mid-evening.
At. Mt Sinai, however, the obstetrical floors were the scene of frantic activity as nurses hurried through the wards and incubators were speedily wheeled in and out of the delivery rooms.
"We've been on our toes every minute of the day, night and evening," said Elizabeth Brandl, nurse supervisor. "I can't remember it ever being this bad."
The administrator of a municipal hospital where the births had increased recalled newspaper articles that had said the electrification of rural villages in India had markedly reduced the birth rate.
Several sociological studies of the blackout are now being made by, among others, Columbia, Cornell, and Ohio State Universities.
When the studies were announced last fall, sociologists said they regarded the blackout as a great event that had abruptly and radically altered the life conditions of 30 million persons. They said they were certain its effects would provide a rich mine for behavioral, sociological and psychological discovery.

Better Investing
Even the most thoughtful gift-giver can't get it right all the time. In fact, Randy Allen, an associate dean for the Johnson Graduate School of Management at Cornell University – told The Wall Street Journal that from 10 to 15 percent of holiday sales are returned or exchanged.
Find the best price on everything you buy on our deals page!
Money Talks News founder Stacy Johnson wades into the world of retail sales and reports on which stores are most likely to provide hassle-free returns. Watch the video below and then keep reading to learn more about the nation's best retail return policies.
To ensure your loved ones are able to exchange that too-small sweater or return their extra toaster, consider shopping at one of these 10 stores.
Among department store return policies, Nordstrom is the gold standard. They take back any item at any time, receipt or no receipt. There's no return counter: Approach any sales associate. If you need to return something by mail, they even provide postage-paid labels.
However, don't make the mistake of confusing Nordstrom with sister discount chain Nordstrom Rack. The return policy at Nordstrom Rack isn't too bad – you have 90 days to return unused merchandise so long as you have the receipt, original tags and a photo ID – but it is nowhere near as generous as the Nordstrom policy.
L.L. Bean
Another store offering a no holds barred return policy is L.L. Bean. The company says its products are "Guaranteed to Last" and will take back items at any time for any reason.
However, be aware you will pay a $6.50 return shipping fee unless you are an L.L. Bean Visa cardholder. Or, if you live near one of the retailer's outlet or store locations, you could always make your return or exchange there.
Macy's is another department store that places few limits on returns and exchanges. It promises easy returns, and the gift return policy posted online says you can return merchandise at any time to the store.
The only catch is you can't return a gift for cash. If you have a gift receipt, you get the full purchase price credited back to you in the form of a Macy's gift card. If you don't have a receipt, you still get a credit but it is for the lowest selling price of the last 180 days.
Selling everything from caskets to cucumbers, Costco says it stands behind its products 100 percent. You can get a full refund on anything. Exceptions: "Televisions, projectors, computers, cameras, camcorders, touchscreen tablets, iPod / MP3 players and cellular phones must be returned within 90 days of purchase for a refund."
For online purchases, the company provides UPS postage-paid labels. Customers can also return items directly to their local Costco warehouse and receive a refund that includes shipping and handling.
You don't need to worry about buying the wrong shoes online if you make your purchase from Zappos. The shoe retailer gives you 365 days to return unused products and will even pay for the return shipping. That means if those strappy heels don't look quite as cute on you as they do on the model, you can send them right back, just don't wear them to the party first.
A division of Gap, Athleta specializes in workout gear for women. However, while other Gap brands will only take back unwashed or unworn items, Athleta lets you return anything for any reason. They will even pay for the return shipping and the cost to ship out an exchange.
Hassle-free returns are the name of the game at Kohl's. They will take back any item at any time regardless of whether you have a receipt. The only exception is gift cards, which cannot be returned.
Bloomingdale's is another department store with a liberal return policy. For most items, you can make a return at any time. Still, some categories have restrictions. For example, certain special event dresses cannot be returned once the tag is removed. Mattresses can only be returned within five years and are subject to fees, and return freight on furniture is the responsibility of the buyer.
While Target doesn't go so far as to say it will accept any and all returns, its policy does promise to "attempt a return" on all items purchased in its stores and online. However, its actual return policy varies depending on what you purchase and its condition:
- Unopened items in new condition can be returned within 90 days for a refund or exchange.
- Electronics such as no-contract cell phones, computers, cameras and gaming systems must be returned within 30 days.
- Music, movies, video games and software that have been opened cannot be returned but may be exchanged.
- Open or defective collectible items cannot be returned.
- Items purchased between Nov. 1 and Dec. 25 are subject to a 30-day return period that starts Dec. 26.
If you need more time, you could always make purchases with your Target REDcard, which gives you an extra 30 days to make a return.
J.C. Penney
Like Target, J.C. Penney has a return policy that varies significantly based on what you've purchased and whether you have a receipt. Here are the highlights of their even-handed policy:
- Most items with a receipt can be returned for a full refund or exchange. Returns made with a gift receipt will receive a J.C. Penney gift card.
- Electronics, fine jewelry and salon appliances must be returned with a receipt within 60 days.
- Other items can be returned without a receipt, but the refund with be issued as a J.C. Penney gift card in the amount of the lowest selling price in the last 45 days. A photo ID is required for all returns made without a receipt.
- Heavy or bulky items (think furniture) that must be returned via truck are subject to a restocking fee ranging from $75 to $125.
Those are 10 of the retailers with the best return policies in the business. What you can learn from this list is that even among the best, policies vary widely. So wherever you shop this season and beyond, always ask about return policies before you buy.
What are the best, and worst, return experiences you've had? Let us know below or on our Facebook page.

The Pope's Marble: Modeling Mogul Paolo Zampolli Builds a Townhouse Fit for a Don
The 44-year-old former playboy claims that he intends the 8,400-square-foot home as a kind of grand diplomat's hostel, as well as a place for family life with his wife, the Brazilian model Amanda Zampolli (nee Ungaro), and the couple's 4-year-old son, Giovanni. (That the house made intermittent appearances on the market through March of this year, asking $22.5 million for the renovated product—and that an enormous banner reading "A Paolo Zampolli Development" hangs over its door—suggests some flexibility in the plan.)Read More

|Men�s Lacrosse: ROYAL THREE-GAME WINNING STREAK SNAPPED WITH 13-6 LOSS AT MESSIAH TUESDAY AFTERNOON; YOUNGSTROM LEADS SCRANTON WITH TWO GOALS AND AN ASSIST AND DAVIS MAKES 11 SAVES IN GOAL
GRANTHAM, Pa.�The University of Scranton had a three-game winning streak snapped with a 13-6 loss to Messiah College in Middle Atlantic Conference action Tuesday afternoon.
Sophomore attacker Nick Ricucci (Germantown, Md./Seneca Valley) scored a game-high five goals and junior attacker Alex Finch (Finksburg, Md./Westminister) added four, including three in the second-half as the Falcons broke away from a 6-3 halftime lead to improve to 2-3 overall and 2-0 in the MAC.
Sophomore attacker Nick Youngstrom (Vestal, N.Y./Vestal) scored two goals and assisted on another and senior midfielder Dan Stallone (South Plainfield, N.J./St. Joseph Metuchen) and sophomore midfielder Thomas Kornobis (Merrick, N.Y./W.C. Mepham) each had a goal and an assist for the Royals, now 3-3 overall and 1-1 in league play.
Scranton, which was out-shot by a 37-23 margin, also received a goal apiece from senior attackers Edward Boate (Media, Pa./Penncrest) and Sean O�Connor (Media, Pa./Penncrest).
Finch took control of the game by scoring three goals within an eight-minute span of the third period and Ricucci added another with 36 seconds remaining in the period to give Messiah a 10-5 lead entering the final 15 minutes of play. Ricucci opened the final stanza with a goal off an assist by senior midfielder Adam Myers (Fallston, Md./Fallston) to extend the Falcons� lead to six, 11-5, with 14:07 left. Myers answered less than a minute later with a goal off an assist by freshman Brent Stewart (Silver Spring, Md./Paintbranch) to dash any hopes of a Scranton rally.
Senior goalkeeper Thomas Davis (Media, Pa./Penncrest) made 11 saves for the Royals while Messiah�s Ted Oberg (Lancaster, Pa./Susquehannock) was credited with nine in nearly 58 minutes of action.
The Royals will host the Rangers of Drew University in Middle Atlantic Conference action this Saturday, March 31, beginning at 1:00 p.m. at Fitzpatrick Field.

Whether in a flash of genius over brunch with friends or in an MBA classroom, just about everyone has mulled over the idea of starting a business. Last night, Glamour celebrated women who are making it happen with "Secrets of Start-Up Queens" at the 92Y, and a panel of heavyweight experts: Iman, who founded her cosmetics and skincare line in 1994, Dylan Lauren, founder and CEO of Dylan's Candy Bar, social media maestro Coco Rocha, Refinery29's Piera Gelardi, and SoulCycle co-founder Elizabeth Cutler. Aspiring entrepreneurs, take heed: these women really know what they're talking about.
Women are starting businesses at twice the rate that men are — in fact, last year women launched 550 new businesses a day. But that doesn't mean it's easy. Luckily, the panel had no shortage of wisdom to share, whether you're hoping to inspire a wave of devout fitness followers or turn your sweet tooth into a mini-empire. And we'd be remiss not to give a special shout out to Iman, who is basically a satin-voiced oracle with seemingly endless stores of excellent advice. We are not worthy!

The quintessential startup starting point. Cutler said she saw a hole in the market when she was trying to lose the weight she had put on after her first pregnancy. Despite being told that "spinning is dead," she and her partners opened up shop, gave it their all, and lo and behold, six years later the company is on track to open 60 more studios worldwide by 2015.
While we can't imagine anyone taking down to Iman nowadays, she said it took about five or six years after she quit modeling to be truly taken seriously as an executive. And when she says she "quit", she means it. "I divorced myself from my industry," she declared. "I stopped reading Vogue, and started reading the Census." She also stopped going to fashion events, started networking with executives, and committed herself fully to her business.
Ever wonder why Coco Rocha seems to be on every social media platform in existence (even some that haven't quite caught on yet)? This is why. She was on Twitter before everyone had a handle, Tumblr when there were no other models to follow, and Instagram when there were "a handful of fashion people." So when the rest of the world does join, who are they going to follow? Coco, of course. Iman also stressed the importance of this point when it came to her cosmetics line. If you strike while the iron's hot (and the market isn't already saturated), you're far more likely to get the customers you want.
Piera Gelardi pointed to Refinery29's creative, friendly office environment as one of her favorite parts of the job. And it's something you can only do when you're the one in charge — try doing that when you're a temp.
Cutler gushed about the original SoulCyclers to visit her first location, a cramped studio at the back of a 72nd Street lobby that they found on Craigslist. They were so thankful to have them there, she posited, that they ended up building the kind of relationships that keep people coming back.
This is a direct quote from Iman, so you best take it to heart. If you don't know — and believe in — what you're doing, you're going to have a far harder time convincing other people to get on board with it. Iman referred to her time mixing makeup for herself and other dark-skinned models as training for starting her own line.
When Dylan Lauren wanted to open the candy mecca that today is Dylan's Candy Bar, people didn't exactly get it. Why does New York need another place to buy sweets? But she had a vision, which included M&M mosaics, life-size lollipops, and walls of rainbow-colored bon bons. This made it easier to pitch to investors, and having lofty goals came in handy when it came time to expand. Current dream? "A candy theme park." Yum.
Coco Rocha is notorious for having one of the strictest contracts in the biz. She doesn't do nudity, semi-nudity, religious or government artifacts, cigarettes, half-naked men…the list goes on. But, as she says, "People in any industry will respect you when you stand up for what you believe in." And you don't want to look back on a job and feel like you were taken advantage of.
Whether it's finding a mentor, or simply reaching out to friends and family for a helping hand, getting a leg up from others will make your job a lot easier. Iman name-checked Rose Marie Bravo, of Macy's, Saks, and, now, Burberry, as one person who helped her find her footing as an executive, while Rocha spoke about supers like Cindy Crawford and, yes, Iman, who inspired her to find her voice outside of modeling.
