As you deal with your children, deal with yourself always and first. This is what it looks like to walk with God, as a mother.
God treats us with great kindness as we fail daily. He takes the long view of our sin—knowing that every time we fail and repent, we grow in our walk with Him. It is easy for us to accept this, because our sins are, well, ours.
But our children sin against us, annoy us, and mess up our stuff. we want to hold it against them, complain about them (if only to ourselves), and feel put upon by their sin. We have a much harder time accepting that every failure from them is a wonderful opportunity for repentance and growth and not an opportunity to exact penance.

With a busy schedule, it's possible to end up going several days without praying for your daughter. There's just so much to do! But here's a thought: "Time spent in prayer will yield more than that given to work." That's especially true where your daughter is concerned!
And here's another thought: If you aren't praying for your daughter each day, who is? Maybe a godly grandparent or your husband? I hope so. But it's possible that on any given day, you are the only one praying for your daughter. So don't let a no-one-prayed-for-my-daughter day happen!
Your daughter needs your prayers, every day, come what may. Every busy mom can somehow find five or ten minutes in her day. So find them…and pray. The stakes are much too high for you to fail to spend some time in prayer for your precious daughter.

The greatest guide God has given us in praying for our children is His Word. As you read the Bible, use Scripture as a springboard for your prayers. For example, using Psalm 1:1-2 might look like this:
Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of scoffers; but his delight is in the law of the LORD, and on his law he meditates day and night. (Psalm 1:1-2)
"Lord, help my children not listen to the advice of ungodly friends, or to participate in mocking what is true, good, and right. Instead, help them to love the truth, treasure your Word, and stand up for what is right. May Your Word be their guide, and not the opinions of others…"
Just take each phrase and pray what it stirs up in your heart and mind. In so doing, you are praying Scripture-soaked truths into your children's lives. Though we are not guaranteed the results we want or the means by which God answers our prayers, God, the Giver of prayer, often puts on our hearts that which He ordains.

As mothers, it is tempting to be consumed with the busyness of life—getting meals, changing diapers, bringing children to school, doing laundry, attending to the myriad of necessary tasks to manage a household and family—at the neglect of our spiritual development. Not only is this personal spiritual suicide, but it is detrimental to our children. If we would nurture the faith of our children, we must first nurture our own growing relationship with the Living God.
We must be spiritually armed for the day which means doing whatever we must do to preserve our time with God. We cannot be good ambassadors if we are not meeting with the King. In order to fulfill the responsibilities given to parents in Deuteronomy 6, we must first feed our own souls. Then our love for God will flow naturally from our hearts to our children.

Before I had children…I really had no clue that admiring a Beanie Baby's pen, taking a picture, finding a T-shirt, and helping to unlock a gas cap would be the kinds of sacrificial acts required of me most often while I attempted to fulfill the mission
of motherhood.
As I have grown through the past eighteen years of motherhood, however, I've come to appreciate the importance of the many thousands of routine moments in a mother's life, for it is in these moments that real greatness tends to be taught and caught.
It is certainly important to grasp the great calling of motherhood and respond to a vision for what a family can be. But it's the way I respond to my children in everyday moments that gives me the best chance of winning their hearts.
If I have integrity and patience in the small moments of life that are so important to my children, and if I approach them with a servant's heart, then I have a far better chance of influencing them in the larger and more critical issues of life.
The Mission of Motherhood, pp. 62-23

Your daily dose of true beauty advice…
What memories are you making in your domestic domain? Each home has its own distinct environment. Does yours speak of the Creator of the universe?
Are peace and beauty and comfort and welcome to be found there? Is communication clear and kind, leaving room for criticism without allowing anyone to be crushed through cruel or angry outbursts? When hurt and resentment flare up, are there legitimate ways to express it while still keeping a guard over one's mouth (Psalm 141:3)? Can people be honest without injuring one another unfairly (Ephesians 4:25-27)?
The fearlessly feminine woman sets an example for her household to follow. She knows there are some things that must never be said no matter what the level of frustration or anger. What memories are being formed in the environment of your home? Children should learn kindness, compassion, and self-control at home. When they don't, schools and communities are forced to pick up the pieces of their cruel, selfish, and uncontrolled behavior…
Don't make your home just another item on your "to do" list. God calls you to devote yourself to your home above any career. If you are too busy to manage it well, who will do it?

Your daily dose of true beauty advice…
When women—sometimes well-meaning, earnest, truth seeking ones say "Get out of the house and do something creative, find something meaningful, something with more direct access to reality," it is a dead giveaway that they have missed the deepest definition of creation, of meaning, of reality. And when you start seeing the world as opaque, that is, as an end in itself instead of as transparent, when you ignore the Other World where this one ultimately finds its meaning, of course housekeeping (and any other kind of work if you do it long enough) becomes tedious and empty…
The routines of housework and of mothering may be seen as a kind of death, and it is appropriate that they should be, for they offer the chance, day after day, to lay down one's life for others. Then they are no longer routines. By being done with love and offered up to God with praise, they are thereby hallowed as the vessels of the tabernacle were hallowed—not because they were different from other vessels in quality or function, but because they were offered to God.
A mother's part in sustaining the life of her children and making it pleasant and comfortable is no triviality. It calls for self-sacrifice and humility, but it is the route, as was the humiliation of Jesus, to glory.

Season series
The Angels won six of 10, including a three-game September sweep, part of a 1-6 tailspin for the White Sox. In May the White Sox recorded consecutive wins in their final at-bat against the Angels at U.S. Cellular Field.
ALCS history
These teams haven't met in the playoffs. The White Sox haven't reached the ALCS since 1993, when the Toronto Blue Jays beat them in six games; Baltimore beat them 3-1 in the best-of-five 1983 ALCS. The Angels were ALCS losers in 1979, '82 and '86; they blew a 2-0 lead in a best-of-five series in '82 and a 3-1 best-of-seven lead in '86. They beat the Minnesota Twins in five games in 2002 on their way to the World Series. Ten players from that club are on their current playoff roster.
5 keys to a White Sox win
Jose Contreras the ace
The right-hander's Yankees struggles leading to his midseason trade to the White Sox in 2004 are a distant memory.
Contreras, a 34-year-old Cuba native, is the staff ace since the All-Star break, going 13-2 in 17 starts and winning nine in a row. He finished with career highs in wins (15), innings (204 2/3), starts (32) and strikeouts (154). In his Game 1 ALDS victory against Boston, he struck out six in 7 2/3 innings and negated the Red Sox's AL MVP candidates, David Ortiz and Manny Ramirez, with runners in scoring position.
No wonder manager Ozzie Guillen altered his rotation and gave Contreras the start in tonight's opener. Contreras enters with a week's rest and more important, loads of confidence.
"The comfort level comes from throwing strikes like I have in the past and passing the ball around the strike zone and not walking as many people, and that comes from confidence," Contreras said Monday through an interpreter. "When you have confidence you have success, and that's when you have wins."
Said Guillen: "It's an amazing job this kid did over the last year and a half. This kid came in with a lot of problems, mechanics and keeping his pitches.
"It was a matter of time when he got more confidence and was throwing more strikes."
No fear of Angels pitching
With the status of starters Bartolo Colon and Jarrod Washburn uncertain, the White Sox are in position to pounce on the Angels pitching.
During the season, they hit .244 against the Angels, but most of that was against Colon and Washburn, who combined to make five of the 10 starts against the White Sox. However, it was John Lackey who had the most success, going 2-0 in three starts. Rookie Ervin Santana earned his first major league victory by throwing a five-hit shutout against the White Sox in May.
Several White Sox have gaudy career numbers against Angels pitching. Paul Konerko is .315 lifetime with 11 homers and 44 RBI, Scott Podsednik .328 and Carl Everett has 11 homers and 27 RBI.
The White Sox will have a chance to make a dent in this series before Colon or Santana are in position to impact it. Santana won't be available until at least Game 3 after his lengthy relief effort Monday in the Angels' Game 5 victory against the Yankees.
A call to arms
Slightly overlooked in Contreras' hot streak were other White Sox pitchers that made up the American League's best rotation this season.
Right-hander and Game 3 starter Jon Garland led the AL with three shutouts and was top four in several other categories to become a Cy Young candidate.
Left-hander Mark Buehrle (16-8) posted his fifth consecutive season with at least 14 wins, 200 innings and 100 strikeouts.
Right-hander Freddy Garcia is 23-12 for the Sox since arriving last year in a midseason trade from Seattle and is 2-1 in three LCS starts (vs. the Yankees).
In addition, the starters are rested after sweeping Boston, and the team's depth has allowed Guillen to tinker with the rotation, starting a hot hand in Contreras knowing he has several cool hands right behind him.
Guillen's risk-taking
Say whatever about Guillen's strategy, logic and outspoken nature, but several examples explain why he has had a good track record this season.
Consider his faith in underrated shortstop Juan Uribe, who was key to the White Sox's LDS sweep of Boston with a homer and four RBI — not bad considering he hit .252 during the season. His defense, erratic with Colorado, has improved and been a strength.
Guillen also stuck with Orlando "El Duque" Hernandez despite late-season shakiness, which paid off in the LDS clincher when he survived a bases-loaded jam by striking out Johnny Damon in the seventh inning.
Then there was last month's game against Cleveland in which Guillen played his middle infielders back with runners in scoring position to concede the tying run, which scored before Joe Crede's game-winning homer in the 10th.
Guillen has raised eyebrows by following his gut more than the book, but his decisions have made the Sox good enough to be lucky when needed.
Some moves will be questioned during this series but don't be shocked if his instincts prove correct.
"There's no doubt we've had some games where we've been more lucky than good," GM Kenny Williams told the Chicago Sun-Times. "So what?"
Take control early
Chicago's blowout win in Game 1 of the LDS set the tone that if the White Sox jump out quickly, there's no catching them.
They were 82-7 when leading after seven innings, setting the stage for young closer Bobby Jenks.
And like most teams, they don't play as well when trailing. They were 15-43 when trailing after six innings and 10-49 after seven.
Is it any coincidence then that their Game 2 comeback against the Red Sox came during the fifth inning, when they scored five runs to wipe out a 4-1 lead? Granted, Boston's pitchers are nowhere near the Angels', and doing that against the Angels in a short series is a tall order.
But the White Sox didn't win 99 games with a wait-and-see attitude, and they want don't want to see what coming back against the Angels is like.
5 keys to an Angels win
Big bad Vladdy?
Despite going without an RBI in the Division Series, Angels right field Vladimir Guerrero is opposing pitchers' biggest fear.
The reigning AL MVP is a candidate to repeat because of his .317 average, 32 homers and 108 RBI, but those numbers also illustrate how he's the player to watch because of the way he can change a game. He will swing at pitches out of the strike zone for base hits and has reached by muscling inside pitches.
He'll need to improve against the White Sox, against whom he hit just .231 with a homer and two RBI in three games. And the Angels have been so spotty offensively, they likely cannot advance without significant run production from Guerrero.
Weak and weary
Right-hander Bartolo Colon left Monday's Game 5 in the second inning with shoulder inflammation. Left-hander Jarrord Washburn never appeared in the Division Series, and doctors believe he has strep throat. And the rest of the Los Angeles Angels are working on little sleep after traveling from New York to Los Angeles to Chicago in about a 24-hour window.
The Angels should recover from the travel, but their starting rotation will be in big trouble if Colon and/or Washburn are not available.
John Lackey started Sunday, and Ervin Santana pitched long relief on Monday, meaning Paul Byrd is likely to start Game 1 tonight. As for Game 2, if it's not Colon or Washburn, it would have to be long reliever Kevin Gregg (1-1, 9.82 ERA in two starts) or perhaps rookie left-hander Joe Saunders, who wasn't on the Division Series roster and is 0-0 with a 7.71 ERA in two career starts.
Chone must be on
Chone Figgins stole 62 bases and scored 113 runs during the season, evidence of how he can jump start an offense. His 25 doubles and 10 triples symbolize how his speed turns routine hits into extra bases.
Figgins' speed and range make him valuable in the field, where he can play several positions. Third base is his home for the time being.
But the playoffs haven't been very kind to Figgins. He made a pair of key errors in his postseason debut last season, when the Angels were swept by the Boston Red Sox, and he was hitless in his first 11 at-bats in this year's Division Series before driving in the go-ahead run in a Game 3 win.
In Game 4, his poor throw home enabled the Yankees to score the go-ahead run. The Angels will need a steady contribution from him throughout this series.
Building the bridge to K-Rod
Oddly enough, White Sox closer Bobby Jenks could have been a setup man for the Angels. But they placed the former starter on waivers, and he found his groove in Chicago.
So the Angels will make do with a solid relief corps of their own that was galvanized when injured starter Kelvim Escobar was moved to the bullpen in September. That took much of the burden off primary setup man Scot Shields, who led AL relievers in innings pitched but still posted 10 wins and a 2.75 ERA.
They and fellow reliever Brendan Donnelly have set the table nicely for closer Francisco Rodriguez, who saved 45 games in 50 chances. But this group in general shows why they're mentioned as one of baseball's best with K-Rod being compared to Mariano Rivera.
Who are those guys?
It's one thing to beat the big, bad, lumbering Yankees, but it's another when the Angels face their mirror image.
The White Sox remade themselves last winter and looked and played like the Angels this season. Some of the statistical similarities include:
• Record in one-run games: White Sox 35-19, Angels 33-26.
• Stolen bases: White Sox 137, Angels 161.
• Overall ERA: White Sox 3.61, Angels 3.68.
• Relief ERA: White Sox 3.23, Angels 3.52.
Instead of tip-toeing around a powerful lineup like the Yankees, the Angels will have to contend with a team that runs the bases aggressively and knows how to manufacture runs. There will be pressure on the pitchers and catcher Bengie Molina to keep catalyst Scott Podsednik from running, and outfielders Garret Anderson, Steve Finley and Vladimir Guerrero better be alert to the White Sox taking extra bases.
The Angels showed their mettle in outlasting the Yankees but will pay for all that travel early on, and Colon's health status only complicates matters. The White Sox might be rusty from all that rest, but sweeping the Red Sox shows how hungry they are. White Sox in six.

AL Game 28
Brooks Bradley & Kenney 5
Quotations Restaurant 4
On a beautiful night for baseball, the juggernaut Quotations team lost a tight battle against Brooks Bradley & Kenney. The teams see-sawed back and forth until the bottom of the 6th inning. Quotations entered the last ½ inning down 5-4, and immediately placed men on second and third with no outs. Pitcher Jack Keffer then hunkered down, got a strike out and pop up, and then shortstop Matt Divis made a phenomenal play to end the game and preserve the win. Prior to that exciting end, pitcher Kellen Edmondson worked several excellent innings for Quotations.

Between now and 2015, the powerful internet company expects 500 million new users from emerging markets to come online, compared to only 15 million new users from the US. A large part is going to come from India, a strategic market for Google and a place where most of these new users will experience the Web for the first time on a mobile devicenot on a desktop computer. The Silicon Valley firm is moving aggressively in terms of investments and fine-tuning products for customers here
Technology alone does not make a successful company. Business tactics do. In his best-seller The Google Guys, Richard Brandt has succinctly captured how Google, a thriving corporation teeming with youthful and smart computer scientists and a incredible knowledge of the internet, has become one of the biggest, most influential companies in technology today. For the uninitiated, when the brainy pair of Stanford University computer science studentsLarry Page and Sergey Brinlaunched Google in mid-1998, it was Yahoo that sat on top of the internet industry. More than 25 million people visited Yahoo every month and it was a place where 75% of Web searches were begun. In short, it was one of the most hot internet properties at that time.
Then Yahoo fell apart, primarily because it was still playing by the old rules and was oblivious to the sweeping changes that were taking place in the dot-com economy. Not quite Google, the Mountain View, California-based company, which had by then come up with a much better way to search on the internet. Not only was Google in sync with the flow of change, its pace of innovation was growing by leaps and bounds. Fuelled primarily by a new business model in the form of online advertising, rather than technology alone; the initial design of Googles search engine did not have technology much more advanced than its competitors. It was how its founders used and refused to abuse the technology that mattered, stresses Brandt, in his must-read for anyone who deals seriously with cyberspace.
Cut to present. There is no doubt that Google is today one of the worlds most powerful internet companies. When senior Google management talks about activating the internet for the next billion people, it is bound to have a significant influence on modern industries, including IT, telecommunication, publishing, broadcasting and entertainment.
Last week, Singapore was the venue for Googles technology leaders to give a glimpse on

Last week, director Austin Christianson caused quite a stir after he released a reported trailer for Kanye West's Cruel Winter short film.
In the wake of the buzz, the 23-year-old director spoke with Fuse about the legitimacy of the 53-second clip, stating that West and his G.O.O.D. Music crew had nothing to do with it. "Without getting into many details, I will say that the trailer was independently made and the video is essentially a concept trailer," he said. "It's used for pitching an idea and/or concept to a client. With that said, the video was being used for pitching purposes and it's naturally intended only for the client to see."
Christianson has already removed the video from his YouTube and Vimeo pages.

Hoults Yard has long been a hotbed for entrepreneurial talent. Today sees a new departure with the launch of NomadNewcastle, an open plan office space that small businesses and freelancers to share.
It's often a lonely place working from home or in a tiny office, so Nomad offers the chance for enterprising individuals and small teams to share an office space – bringing the banter, the network and the bulk-buying.
Nomad's start price is £40 per desk per week – so it could be cheaper to move out of that spare bedroom and rent it out, rather than stay home alone.
Nomad launches with teams from British Music League, shortly launching a 'Battle of the Bands' for NorthEast colleges, and event specialists Sailor Girl. There are a number of other folk talking to Hoults – it makes sense to join the Yard community, given we have 300 people already working here and are aiming to build this swiftly to 450.

Steam PC - I can no longer use the game after chapter 3. The game has a save after a discussion with Chuck. I finished chapter 3 once, and that save was lost. The next night I re-finished chapter 3 and played the first hour or so of chapter 4. Returning to the game today, it still shows the last chapter 3 save. If I try to launch it it always goes to an unresponsive black screen. My save folder shows 49 saves.
My preference would be to get back my ch4 save. Barring that, is there any way to repair the ch3 save and re-play the end of ch3 and the beginning of ch4?
I tried copying the save to slot 2, but the issue is the same.
End of ch3 shows as the most recent save, but when I launch it it asks if I'm sure I want to rewind. If I answer Yes or No it always just hangs at a black screen with nothing but the cursor showing. I have to End Process.
I've tried disabling Steam Cloud Sync and deleting saves, but that hasn't changed any behavior.

ESL Shipping has ordered two ice classed dry bulk cargo vessels from the Korean Hyundai Mipo Dockyard Co. Ltd, which is one of the world's leading shipbuilders. The new vessels are clearly bigger than ESL Shipping's existing vessels, 56.150 dwt supramax class vessels. The total value of the investment is about EUR 60 million. The vessels, which meet the ice class 1A, have been tailored for ESL Shipping and will be delivered in the first half of 2012. The vessel investment is financed with cash flow financing as well as debt financing.
"The Baltic Sea cargo markets will continue growing as the economic development in the area recovers. Simultaneously the need to transport raw materials around the year with ever growing vessels is increasing. We are increasing our capacity by over 50 percent, which means that we can improve and expand the service we offer our existing customers. At the same time, we can participate in new projects where transportation reliability around the year is crucial. The new self-unloading vessels with ice-strengthening are unique in their size class. In the planning, we have paid particular attention to environmental issues and therefore the vessels will include, for instance, ballast water treatment equipment. Ice model testing will be carried out at Aker Arctic's laboratory in Helsinki," says Markus Karjalainen.

In a time where people didn't know much about the world outside of their very own, an African Bushman seemed very extraordinary. Franz was believed to have been born into captivity on a farm. Because of his short stature and proclivity for dancing the farmer decided to exhibit him as a wildman. He eventually wound up in the USA working with Ringling Bros as well as at Coney Island.

Reference: 47
Brogino is a large country house in Chianti, its already lyrical setting enhanced by the spectacular medieval Abbey - Badia di Passignano - which faces it from a mile away across vine and olive clothed hills. This is a particularly special house. A large rectangular building made of Chianti stone containing various greys, browns and lichen colours, even its little details are a pleasure to look at. Its large and airy rooms flow effortlessly into one another. The English owners, a painter and a writer, lived here permanently until a few years ago and restored much of the house themselves. Their care shows in the beautiful and individual decoration and furnishings, with many lovely antiques and wall hangings. Nothing has been over-restored, so that, while having every modern comfort, it feels as if little has changed over the centuries. The garden, with flowers and shrubs nestling amongst the rocks and sandy soil of the area, merges imperceptibly into the olive groves beyond. At the side of the main house and slightly below it is an enchanting converted pool house with a small bathroom and a sitting room with kitchen equipment cleverly hidden behind antique doors set into one of the thick walls. A vine-covered pergola shades a furnished terrace behind it. Below that, the swimming pool (12 X 6 m.), with a big diving rock, is landscaped into the olive grove below.
Entrance hall, study/library with fireplace, large farmhouse kitchen/ dining-room with fireplace, marble work surfaces, dishwasher and food mixer. Large reception room with Steinway B 7-foot grand piano. From this room doors lead outside; a covered terrace with a table forms an extremely picturesque outside dining area. A shower room and a larder with freezer complete the ground floor. First floor: comfortable sitting-room with fireplace, one shower room and two bathrooms, one with a washing machine and dryer, one double bedroom, and three twin/double bedrooms.

Around Brogino
The Badia di Passignano, occupied by Benedictine monks, not only provides a wonderful backdrop for the Chianti countryside, but also is sometimes the setting for concerts of a very high quality. The abbey is not generally open to the public, so these concerts provide an opportunity to see some of its treasures, including a Last Supper by Ghirlandaio in the refectory. There is a good restaurant in front of the abbey and many others in the vicinity. Brogino is a very special house, exuding an atmosphere of idyllic days in an exceptionally beautiful setting. Surrounded by flowers and peace it is a perfect retreat to relax into and enjoy the heady pleasures of Chianti after exploring the unending delights of Tuscany. The location of the house near some of the most famous vineyards in the Chianti Classico, and the presence of a Steinway B 7-foot grand piano, makes this an ideal holiday setting either for wine lovers or for serious musicians.

Have Legal Questions? Ask a Lawyer Now.
Dear Customer, I just want to ensure that I understand you correctly, you need to locate the boat owner's social security number in order to re-register his boat on his behalf while he is away. Is that correct?
(In follow up, if that is the case, did you have a specific means in mind to locating this information?)
Dear customer, If the above is correct, I would advise first attempting to Contact the Georgia Department of Natural Resources: http://www.georgiawildlife.com/node/2965 and attempting to see if they can re-register the boat without a social security number (the hull number on the boat may be sufficient). If not, there is no regulation against attempting to locate a social security number for a legitimate purpose on behalf of the owner, however, this is usually difficult and/or expensive. Usually a regulatory agency will be able to provide you with an alternative means to re-register the vessel.
I hope that the above information is helpful, if you have any questions, please use the "Reply to Expert Link" and I will follow up promptly. Once you are satisfied with your answer, please rate my service by clicking on the "OK" "GOOD" or "EXCELLENT" buttons, if you believe my service is anything less than "OK" please stop and tell me what additional information or clarification you need to make your experience satisfactory.
If you have any further questions, or if I missed or misunderstood what you were asking, please do ask and I will follow up promptly, You may continue to follow up if further questions arise even after rating my response.
yes that is correct. I talked to dnr on the phone. They gave me his customer id # XXXXX register on line. Somehow it was registered without soc.#. and I get error message. Not sure yet how to find soc.#. No help from dnr although everything else is correct, hull#,name and address,ga registration # XXXXX and model.
I cannot give you a specific reference on who can locate his ssn for this purpose, but there are services available. If you are unable to get anyone (supervisory level or administrative review) to assist you with this at the dnr, you can apply to the Court for "declaratory relief" asking that the boat be registered without this information. This will require a short declaration from you regarding the ownership and the reason for the application. In most instances however, citizens can find someone that can make administrative exceptions for these types of situations without requiring a judicial intervention.
ok thanks, XXXXX XXXXX what I can come up with.
You are welcome. I do hope that you are able to resolve this without having to go to the hassle of an appearance in court (small claims or limited jurisdiction will be sufficient in these types of proceedings). Thank you for using Just Answer, and please let me know if I can be of any further assistance.

I think it's looking great. The colors are very serious, the font is nice, you did a good job of offsetting symbols and text with the shadow, I like the ocean texture near to the shore, the trees meld into the landscape nicely.
My only suggestion would be I think the title set inside a decorative cartouche would be a nice addition. Right now it kind of gets lost in the ocean.

All wrapped up in gorgeous animation that still looks great close to a half-century on, the film has a vibrant, loose feel, partly achieved by the glorious music, which features classic songs like "The Bare Necessities" and "I Wan'na Be Like You." Originally, songwriter Terry Gilkyson had been brought on to write the music, but along with Peet's contributions, they were mostly found to be too dark, and Walt Disney excised most of his work -- with the exception of one song, "The Bare Necessities," which saw him win an Oscar nomination. Disney favorites the Sherman Brothers (who penned the songs for "Mary Poppins" -- watch for them being played by Jason Schwartzmann and B.J. Novak in next year's "Saving Mr. Banks") were brought on to pen the rest.
The music also showcases another innovation of the film, for better or worse -- it's almost the first time that quote-unquote celebrity voices became intrinsic to the process. Disney had flirted with the use of well-known actors in the past ("The Time Machine" star Rod Taylor voiced Pongo in "101 Dalmatians," for instance), but for the most part the voiceover cast tended to be little-known specialists, often drawn from the same pool. But alongside Disney regulars like Sebastian Cabot (as Bagheera) and Sterling Holloway (as Kaa) in "The Jungle Book" were more famous faces -- radio legend and musician Phil Harris lending his warm, laid back presence as Baloo, British character actor George Sanders as Shere Khan (who was also modelled on the actor's likeness), and perhaps most memorably of all, jazz star Louis Prima as King Louie. Prima's band would go on to re-record the film's songs for a secondary soundtrack album to the film (hear below).
And Prima wasn't the only musician courted by Disney -- the producer met with Brian Epstein in 1965 hoping to woo The Beatles, then at the height of their fame, to voice the Vultures in the film and sing their song "That's What Friends Are For." Reportedly, it was John Lennon who nixed the idea -- he was already ambivalent about the ABC "The Beatles" cartoon series that started airing the same year, and screamed at Epstein, "There's no way The Beatles are gonna sing for Mickey fucking Mouse. You can tell Walt Disney to fuck off. Tell him to get Elvis off his fat arse, he's into making crap fucking movies."
The Vultures' musical number was adapted into a barbershop tune, but the characters retain Liverpudlian accents, voiced by fellow Merseybeat artist Chad Stuart, of Chad & Jeremy, radio DJ Lord Tim Hudson, actor/writer Digby Wolfe and Disney veteran J. Pat O'Malley. One other actor to listen out for -- a young Clint Howard (brother of Ron), who voices baby elephant Junior, while original Mowgli David Alan Bailey was replaced when his voice broke, with director Wolfgang Reitherman casting his own son Bruce in his place (the younger Reitherman would go on to become the director of nature documentaries).
After overcoming so many hurdles, a further shadow was cast over the production on December 15th, 1966, when Walt Disney passed away, only six weeks after being diagnosed with lung cancer caused by his life-long smoking habit. "The Jungle Book" would be the last Disney animated feature to be personally overseen by the studio's founder. Ten months later, almost to the day, the film hit theaters, and proved to be a giant success. And thanks to three re-releases over the decades, it still stands as the 30th biggest-grossing film of all time, when adjusted for inflation, making the equivalent of $590 million at the U.S. box office. Despite Peck's campaigning, the film was excluded from the Best Picture field at the Academy Awards, and was even beaten to Best Song by mega-flop "Doctor Dolittle."
Unsurprisingly, Disney have gone back to the well a few times, never entirely successfully. A year after release, an album, More Jungle Book was released that continued the story, and more recently, a vastly inferior official film sequel "The Jungle Book 2" (with Haley Joel Osment as Mowgli and John Goodman as Baloo) was produced by Disney's direct-to-video label DisneyToons, somehow managing a theatrical re-release. Future "The Mummy" director Stephen Sommers directed a more respectable live-action remake for the studio, starring Jason Scott Lee, Cary Elwes, Sam Neill, John Cleese and a young Lena Headey in 1994, while the same period saw characters from the animated film crop up in two animated series -- 1990s bonkers but fondly remembered "TaleSpin," which melds Baloo and co. with Howard Hawks' "Only Angels Have Wings" for some reason, and the more traditional, "Muppet Babies"-style "Jungle Cubs." But the varying degrees of quality of the spin-offs can, quite frankly, never hold a candle to the original.

No touch throwing or muppets in a circle?

Re: No touch throwing or muppets in a circle?
As far as the 'Ki Masters'....Tohei was in the U.S. at a party, and was asked if he could turn the light switch off (that was across the room) using his Ki.
He said 'of course', the room fell silent and he got up, walked across the room and turned the switch. He said that he used his Ki to do it....
As I have done more and more come to hold and moving techniques, and other practice, you do tend to get a better 'feel' about when someone is coming to attack you. Much more work to be done. I look at O'Sensei's skill at that as having been very well defined - he could sense the intention, like you or I could feel a ripple in a calm pool. He just didn't need the pool. Yet still no flaming Ki balls from across the room.
One of these days, hopefully soon I will attempt to make the Ushiro seminar.

Hi everybody,
I upgraded last week from version 6.0.1 to 6.0.2 (Community edition on a Debian server).
I noticed that since this moment zmlogswatch crashes on a regular basis. I can have it working again with "zmlogswatchctl stop/start", but, within the next 24 hours it crashes again.
I don't see anything in zimbra logs, but maybe I'm not looking at the right place.
If someone can give me a hand to solve this problem I would be really nice.
Thanks in advance,

Four Arrested in Bank Robbery Attempt in Liberty County
|U.S. Attorney's Office November 14, 2013
ATLANTA—Special Agent in Charge (SAC) Mark F. Giuliano, in conjunction with Liberty County Sheriff Steve Sikes, announces the following arrests at Liberty County, Georgia, in connection with yesterday's armed robbery of the Interstate Federal Credit Union, located at 11868 East Oglethorpe Highway in Midway, Georgia.
On Wednesday, November 13, 2013, at approximately 8:36 a.m., two black males, armed with handguns, attempted to enter the rear door of the Interstate Federal Credit Union, 11868 East Oglethorpe Highway in Midway, Georgia. An observant bank employee quickly locked the rear doors of the bank while instructing other bank employees to call the police. Both of the would-be robbers ran back into the adjacent woods.
Responding Liberty County Sheriff's Office K-9 units were able to track the individuals to the woodlines. Additional investigation determined that a black Chevrolet Sports Utility Vehicle (SUV) picked up three males running out of those woods, two of those individuals matching the descriptions and bank surveillance photos of the robbers.
A Liberty County Sheriff's Detective noticed a black Chevrolet Captiva SUV parked off Cay Creek Road, about one mile south of the victim bank. This SUV matched that from the robbery. While attempting to approach this vehicle, it pulled away from the responding officer. After a brief pursuit, the vehicle pulled into the El Cheapo gas station, located at 13670 East Oglethorpe Highway in Midway, Georgia.
Taken into custody by the Liberty County Sheriff's Office and now charged federally by the FBI with violation of Title 18 USC 2113 (d), attempted bank robbery, are the following individuals:
- Durrell Jones, age 32, of Savannah, Georgia
- Randy Jones, age 31, of Savannah/Midway, Georgia
- Kendell Stevens, age 24, of Savannah, Georgia
- Demetrious Hall, age 30, of Savannah, Georgia
All are currently being housed at the Liberty County, Georgia Detention Facility and will be afforded an initial appearance in front of a U.S. Magistrate Judge on Friday, November 15, 2013.
The resulting federal criminal complaint is a direct result of an aggressive response by the Liberty County Sheriff's Office, Midway Police Department, Georgia State Patrol, Georgia Department of Natural Resources, and the resulting immediate investigative response by their office, as well as that of the FBI and agents from the local office of the U.S. Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and explosives (ATF).
The public should be reminded that the above are merely allegations and that all persons are to be presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
