Delta Sigma Theta National President, Cynthia Butler-McIntyre, '76, swas interviewed on the Tom Joyner Morning Show.
Victor Ogburie, a senior, physics major, computer science and mathematics minor at Dillard University from Charlotte, North Carolina, this week was named a Tom Joyner Foundation "Hercules Scholar".
Dr. Walter M. Kimbrough highlights the accomplishment and on going advancements at Dillard University.

Cynthia M.A. Butler-McIntyre has led the Delta Sigma Theta Sorority through a tumultuous period in U.S. and world history. It is an era of inspiring highs, such as the election and re-election of America's first Black president and the 100th anniversary of the organization's founding; and of debilitating lows, such as the 7.0-magnitude earthquake that devastated Haiti in 2010, the rise of obstructionist conservative politics on Capitol Hill and in state legislatures across the country and the rolling back of civil rights victories, such as the recent gutting of Section 4 of theVoting Rights Act by the Supreme Court.
Through it all, Butler-McIntyre has led "with a servant's heart," as she often describes her approach, which is informed by her faith.
A native of New Orleans, La., Butler-McIntyre was elected as the 24th president of the 200,000-member Delta Sigma Theta Sorority by a unanimous vote of over 800 voting delegates at the organization's 49th National Convention in Orlando, Fla., on Aug. 18, 2008.
Butler-McIntyre has been a member of the sorority for 35 years and held several local, regional and national offices.
A 1976 Dillard University alum, Butler-McIntyre is an educator who has impacted the lives of countless young people for over 30 years as a teacher, assistant principal, summer school principal and now a director of human resources for the Jefferson Parish Public School System in Harvey, La.
In addition to her bachelor's degree, Butler-McIntyre earned a master of education degree from the University of New Orleans at the age of 20 and also holds an honorary doctorate of divinity degree from the Christian Bible College of Louisiana.
The sorority president has received numerous recognition for her service, which includes membership on the boards of several other organizations including as national board member of the National Council of Negro Women; a past national board member of the National Alliance of Black School Educators; the state secretary of the Louisiana Association of School Personnel Administrators; and founding president of Algiers-Gretna Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People and as a member of the Board of Trustees of the Christopher Columbus Fellowship Foundation, to which President Barack Obama appointed her in 2011.
In an interview with the AFRO, Butler-McIntyre reflected on the organization's legacy and centennial celebrations, including the 51st National Convention in Washington, D.C., where a new president and other officers will be elected.1. Why the choice of Washington, D.C., for the Centennial Celebration?Washington, D.C., was the most appropriate place to have our 51st National Convention, culminating our Centennial Celebration, as it is the birthplace city of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. We could not have aptly celebrated 100 years of sisterhood, scholarship and service and honor the courage of our 22 founders without coming back "home" to where it all began. We also wanted to give our members the opportunity to walk in the footsteps of our founders and visit Howard University, where our founders collectively decided that this organization would be dedicated to serving the community and addressing needs and issues that pertain to the African-American community. 2. How has the sorority evolved over the past century? The sorority has grown substantially over the past century, going from an intimate group of socially conscious college women seeking to affect change on the campus of Howard University and throughout the country to an organization that spans around the globe – consisting of hundreds of thousands of members, representing over 900 chapters in the U.S. and abroad. So, as you can see, we have grown and will continue to expand our reach. 3. What factors have distinguished the Delta Sigma Theta Sorority from other sororities/fraternities/social groups? I am proud to say that all the sororities and fraternities of the National Pan-Hellenic Council have programs and initiatives geared towards the betterment of our communities. I think what sets Delta Sigma Theta apart from them and other organizations is the fact that we are the single largest predominately African-American women's organization in the country. Not to imply that the others do not, but we also make social action a top priority – as we commit to staying abreast of key legislation that dramatically affects the African-American community and relay the necessary information to our respective communities. During our Delta Days in the Nation's Capital and Delta Days at the UN, we make our presence known and our voices heard. 4. What factors were responsible for the sorority's ability to survive and thrive throughout the past century?As an organization founded on Christian principles, I can say with confidence that it was God's never-ending grace that has allowed us to survive. The tenacious spirit of our founders; the awesome leadership of the 23 women that came before me to serve as the national president of this dynamic organization; the commitment of our members to be public servants have definitely propelled us forward over the past century and allowed us to thrive.5. How has the sorority been involved or influenced by some of the defining moments in U.S/Black history? Delta Sigma Theta and its members have been and remain in the forefront of some of this country's most world-changing events. U.S. history, Black history and Delta history are all intertwined, as Delta Sigma Theta has incited change, demanded equality, and fought injustice since its creation. The first public act of social advocacy Delta Sigma Theta participated in – two months after its founding – was the 1913 Women's Suffrage March. As the only African-American organization present, our founders made the determination in that very moment that Delta Sigma Theta would not sit idly by while any group of individuals were denied their basic human freedoms. And since then, we have not strayed from that fighting stalwart spirit that has been engrained in every Delta woman.

One of the highlights of last year's fall film festival season, Jonathan Glazer's "Under the Skin" (the director's first film since 2004's "Birth") became an instant must-see-whenever-it-gets-released movie for 2014. Now, A24 Films has released a new red band trailer that's just as thrillingly elliptical as the film itself.
Based on the novel by Michel Faber, "Under the Skin" stars Scarlett Johansson as an alien sent to prey on earth hitchhikers (who happily follow her, being that she looks like Scarlett Johansson), but whose conscience gets the better of her. The trailer follows the film's example by focusing more on bizarre images and sounds than dialogue. It's a striking, unnerving preview for a striking, unnerving film. "Under the Skin" hits theaters in New York and LA on April 4 and expands April 11.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) — Arkansas Gov. Mike Beebe said Thursday he'll sign into law a ban on insurers covering most abortions in an exchange created under the federal health care law, but he stepped up his criticism of two other abortion restrictions lawmakers are considering.
Beebe said he'd sign the restriction on abortion coverage moments after the Senate gave final approval of the legislation by a 25-9 vote. Lawmakers also are weighing whether to pass the strictest abortion ban in the nation.
The coverage ban includes exemptions for rape, incest and to save the life of the mother. The bill also allows abortion coverage through supplemental policies, but the bill's opponents say that option is not available in Arkansas. Beebe said he believes the legislation merely restates existing law banning public money for abortions.
"It doesn't really change the law," Beebe, a Democrat, told reporters Thursday morning. "It's already under the federal law, which the exchange is created by, that's already banned."
But opponents of the measure say that since separate riders for abortions aren't available in Arkansas, the proposal would effectively prevent women who buy insurance coverage through the exchange from purchasing policies using their own money that would cover abortions. Supporters of the measure say 18 other states have passed similar restrictions.
"I find it immensely surprising that a body that is supposed to look out for everybody and do the right thing, that something we afford ourselves we're not going to afford them because they have to buy on the exchange," said Sen. Joyce Elliott, D-Little Rock, who voted against the measure.
The bill is among several new abortion restrictions that are gaining support in the Legislature after Republicans won control of the state House and Senate last year. Five Democrats joined with 20 Republicans to support the coverage ban.
Beebe, however, said he's concerned about two other abortion bills pending in the Legislature but stopped short of saying whether he'll veto them if they reach his desk. Beebe said legislation that would ban most abortions if a heartbeat is detected still has constitutional problems, despite an amendment easing the restriction.
The bill, which was expected to go before a House committee Thursday, is being changed to ban abortions if a heartbeat is detected using an abdominal ultrasound. That would ban abortions as early as 10 weeks into a pregnancy. It includes an exemption for rape, incest and the life of the mother.
The original version of the bill by state Sen. Jason Rapert, R-Conway, didn't specify how a heartbeat would be detected and would have banned the procedure as early as six weeks into a pregnancy. Opponents have said detecting a heartbeat that early would have required a vaginal probe ultrasound. The Senate last week approved the ban.
"It's still bad," Beebe said. "I think it's unconstitutional. If it gets to me, then to a large extent I'll be guided by that."
Opponents have said that the "heartbeat" ban goes against the U.S. Supreme Court's 1973 Roe v. Wade ruling that legalized abortion up until viability, usually at 22 to 24 weeks. Beebe said that's the standard he is using when judging the bill.
"I haven't seen any medical testimony or anything that suggests that viability is not countered by the time limits on Rapert's bill, with or without vaginal probes or anything else for that matter," Beebe said. "The viability issue is the test, as I understand it."
Beebe said he's also concerned about another restriction pending before a Senate panel that would ban abortions at 20 weeks into a pregnancy. That measure does not include an exemption for rape or incest, and Democrats who have supported other abortion restrictions are pushing for that exception.
"Under its current form, it's constitutionally suspect, too," Beebe said.

Oklahoma City Barons: Taylor Hall's hat trick, Mark Arcobello's four assists lead Barons to win
CEDAR PARK, Texas — Taylor Hall had a hat trick, and Mark Arcobello added four assists as the Oklahoma City Barons beat the Texas Stars 5-4 Thursday night in an American Hockey League game at Cedar Park Center. Hall scored two goals, a 1 minute, 30 seconds apart, in the third period to help the Barons pull out a big road victory.
Oklahoma City (15-10-4) never trailed in the game, but 5,354 fans watched Texas (15-10-5) stay close throughout. Hall's 12th goal of the season, with 5:47 left in the game, gave the Barons a 5-3 lead. But Colton Sceviour answered just 1:02 later with his second goal of the game for Texas.
The Stars failed to get the tying goal after coach Willie Desjardins pulled goaltender Jack Campbell for an extra attacker with 1:18 left in the game.
Arcobello assisted on all three Hall goals, two of which were with a man advantage.
Jordan Eberle's first-period power-play score, with an assist from Arcobello, gave Oklahoma City a 1-0 lead. Teemu Hartikainen added an even-strength goal in the second period.
The Barons added muscle to the club Thursday, signing forward Erick Lizon to a player-tryout contract. The 6-foot-4, 234-pound Lizon is coming in from the Wichita Thunder of the Central Hockey League. He has three points and 71 penalty minutes in 24 games for the Thunder. Lizon played 23 games for the Oklahoma City Blazers during the 2007-2008 season; he had five points and 67 penalty minutes. Lizon has AHL experience, playing eight games two years ago for the Worcester Sharks.

Dallas woman nominated to head state parks agency
HARRISBURG - Gov. Tom Corbett nominated a Dallas woman on Friday as full-time secretary of the state agency overseeing state parks and forests.
Ellen Ferretti, 56, has been acting secretary of the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources since June. She now faces a confirmation vote in the Senate.
The Senate Environmental Resources and Energy Committee will hold a public hearing on her nomination as a first step.
Mr. Corbett also nominated Christopher Abruzzo of Hershey as secretary of the Department of Environmental Protection. He has served as acting DEP secretary since April. He faces a Senate confirmation vote too.
"Ellen has devoted much of her career toward the development, promotion and protection of our state parks and forest lands," Mr. Corbett said. "She understands the unique qualities of our state park and forest systems."
Ms. Ferretti was deputy DCNR secretary for parks and forestry for two years before becoming acting secretary upon the resignation of Richard Allan.
Her career includes work on environmental issues in the Northeast office of the Pennsylvania Environmental Council, and a stint with the Luzerne County Planning Commission. She is a graduate of Wilkes College and has had private-sector jobs with Borton-Lawson Engineering and Westinghouse Environmental and Geotechnical Services Inc.
Ms. Ferretti's nomination drew statements of support from the Pennsylvania Environmental Council and Pennsylvania Growing Greener Coalition.
One of the issues on Ms. Ferretti's plate is whether to approve a controversial plan for the Loyalsock State Forest in Northeast Pennsylvania.
Mr. Abruzzo has previously been the governor's deputy chief of staff. He replaces Michael Krancer, who resigned in April.

The True Meaning Of Christ-Mass
They tell us that it is the season to be jolly. It is a time of ornaments, red and green decorations, silver bells, holly, mistletoe and colored lights. It is also a time of department store Santas calling out their universal mantra, "Ho ho ho, Merry Christmas." Nearly all of the realm of so-called "Christianity" join in and repeat this same greeting, "Merry Christmas!"
Although we hear these words constantly as they resonate millions of times throughout the land, almost nobody understands what they are really saying. It is the purpose of this tract to take the words, "Merry Christmas" and examine the true meaning and essence of those words.
A true Christian would want to examine everything they say, because Jesus said in Matthew 12:36-37, "But I say unto you, that every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgement. For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned." We will now set aside all of the customs, glitter and traditions of Christmas, which were taken from pagan witchcraft and popularized by the Roman Catholic Church, and we will focus on the true meaning of the words, "Merry Christmas!"
The word "Merry" is simple to define. It unquestionably means to be happy, joyful and light-hearted. The word "merry" fits into the ambience of laughter and frivolity. This word "merry" by itself is innocent and innocuous enough, but as we will now see, it becomes heinously blasphemous when used with the word "Christmas."
Here let it be noted that most people think that the word, "Christmas" means "the birth of Christ." By definition, it means "death of Christ", and I will prove it by using the World Book Encyclopedia, the Catholic Encyclopedia, and a book entitled, The Mass In Slow Motion.
If you are an honest, sincere and discerning Christian, please read on; if not, you might as well stop right here. The World Book Encyclopedia defines "Christmas" as follows: "The word Christmas comes from "Cristes Maesse", an early English phrase that means "Mass of Christ." (1) It is interesting to note that the word "Mass", as used by the Roman Catholics, has traditionally been rejected by the so-called Protestants, such as Lutherans, Baptists, Methodists, Presbyterians, Pentecostals and so on. The word "Mass" is strictly a Catholic word and thus, so is "Christ-Mass."
It would stand to reason, that since all of these denominations love and embrace "Christ-Mass", that December 25th is the great homecoming day, when all of the Protestants become Catholic for a day. It would seem that all of the so-called "wayward daughters" of the Romish church return to their mother, the scarlet harlot. Thus, all of the so-called Protestant churches could sing to the Pope that popular song "I'll be home for Christmas."
It is also a historical fact that December 25th was celebrated in the Roman and pagan world as the birth of the sun god Sol or Mithra. In the decades and centuries before Christians began celebrating December 25th, Roman emperors promoted the sun god and his feast day of December 25th.
As previously stated, the word "Mass" in religious usage means a "death sacrifice." The impact of this fact is horrifying and shocking; for when the millions of people are saying, "Merry Christmas", they are literally saying "Merry death of Christ!"
SANTA, SATAN, HUH, I WONDER WHO'S BEHIND IT! Furthermore, when that fat man in the red suit laughs boisterously and says, "Ho ho ho, Merry Christmas", he is mocking and laughing at the suffering and bleeding Saviour, who died for our sins. He does this while parents place their little children into his waiting arms to hear his false promises of gifts that he says he will give them. Consider what you are saying when you say "Merry Christmas."
What is so amusing about our Saviour's painful death? What is so funny? WHY IS SANTA LAUGHING? (WHY ARE YOU GOING ALONG WITH IT?)Your words do count and Satan knows it. Yes, the word "Mass" does mean "death sacrifice", and to cement that fact, we will consider the definition of the inventors of the religious application of the word "Mass." I am looking at page 537 of the Catholic Encyclopedia, which says, "In the Christian law, the supreme sacrifice is that of the Mass." It goes on to say, "The supreme act of worship consists essentially in an offering of a worthy victim to God, the offering made by a proper person, as a priest, the destruction of the victim." (2) Please note carefully the word, "victim" of the Mass. The Latin word for victim is "Hostia" from which the word "host" is derived. The Mass, by definition of those who coined the word, is a sacrifice involving a victim. There is no other meaning for the word "Mass" or "Christ-Mass." On page 110 of a book entitled "The Mass In Slow Motion", we find the following words: "It is only with the consecration that the sacrifice of the Mass is achieved. I have represented the Mass to you, more than once, as a kind of ritual dance." (3) In essence, the Mass is the ceremonial slaying of Jesus Christ over and over again, followed by the eating of his flesh and the drinking of his blood. The Mass is the death sacrifice, and the "Host" is the victim. (This is official Roman Catholic doctrine, and "Christmas" is a word that they invented).
Again, I ask, what is so merry about the pain, bleeding, suffering and death of Jesus Christ? SATAN HAS DONE QUITE A JOB OF GETTING MILLIONS OF SO-CALLED "CHRISTIANS" TO BLASPHEME. WHAT A DECEIVER HE IS.
Now you know the true meaning of the word "Christmas" or Mass of Christ. Jesus was not born on December 25th, and Christmas is not only a lie, but is actually a witches' sabbat called "Yule" in clever disguise.
NEITHER PAUL, PETER, JAMES OR JOHN EVER PRACTICE CHRISTMAS. PAUL SAID: Col 2:8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.
RUDIMENT-A first principle or element; that which is to be first learnt.
2Th 2:15 Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold the traditions which ye have been taught, whether by word, or our epistle.
Mt 15:3 But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition?
Mr 7:7 Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.
8 For laying aside the commandment of God, ye hold the tradition of men, as the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things ye do.
9 And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition.
Ro 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
Jer 10:2 Thus saith the LORD, (Learn not the way of the heathen,) and be not dismayed at the signs of heaven; for the heathen are dismayed at them.
3 For the customs of the people are vain: for one cutteth a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman, with the axe.
4 They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not.
5 They are upright as the palm tree, but speak not: they must needs be borne, because they cannot go. Be not afraid of them; for they cannot do evil, neither also is it in them to do good. (CHRISTMAS TREES!)
Lu 22:19 And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me.
1Co 11:24 And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me.
1Co 11:25 After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me.

Glad to read your new article.
This year I totally disengaged myself from the whole Christmas thing, felt good to finally make the break, following through on what I have known to be the truth about Christmas for a long time.
Thank you for the solid information.

"John MacArthur equates 33 degree Freemason to be a Christian"
Let the TRUE believer in Jesus Christ beware that they have been played like a puppet in many and varied ways since the day they were born.
"The most wonderful thing of all is that the distinguished Lutheran and Calvinist theologians who belong to our order really believe that they see in it (Illuminati) the true and genuine sense of Christian Religion. Oh mortal man, is there anything you cannot be made to believe?"

Equally disturbing is a video of John stating that it's ok for a Christian to take the mark of the beast and still make it to heaven.

Hello, Heavy Dose,
Thanks for visiting and leaving those links. We love William with Ephesians 5:11, he's a true brother. We thank the Lord for his due diligence and tireless research into the wolves of our day. Brannon Howse and Jimmy Deyoung are included on that list, also evidenced by the YouTube video you linked. The outright dismissal and disregard of professing Christians who also claim the tile of 33rd degree freemason is exemplified most vividly in none other than Billy Graham himself. How many would dare challenge this modern day 'Moses' and his status as a Christian? The workers are few, assuredly. I think of David Jeremiah with the all-seeing eye behind him at the pulpit. The Truth is apparent and plentiful for all who would see!
I haven't seen you visit before, but an blessed to have potentially come across one of the few remaining of the righteous remnant. Praying you visit again soon.
In Christ, our Lord,
Mom 4 Truth

I say frequently that I believe X-mas to be a defining issue of the current climate of apostasy. It was the idolatry the Hebrew people were felled by time and time again. It was the idolatry that saw the Lord's bill of divorcement upon the Jewish race, that she who had a husband would be brought to nothing and the barren would be made full (Galatians 4:27). He hated idolatry and the way of the heathen then, He is the God who doesn't change, and He hates it today! May you be encouraged that the narrow way, while lonely on this earth, is encompassed by so great a cloud of witnesses that have walked this path before, with whom we shall rejoice together in eternity!
In Christ, my King,

Amen to this article. Even if its not new material, it needs to be repeated. "Tell ye your children of it, and let your children tell their children, and their children another generation." (Joel 1:3)

Thanks for the article (I read another of yours about members of the family and sometimes having to leave them behind as it were when they reject the gospel after a few times of sharing), but also someone posted some of it on their FB page – is it from an article by David Meyer? I live in the UK, and am struggling with what to say to our family as we have really had our eyes opened more this year about the true nature of Christmas.
Other Christians often say "Jesus is the reason for the season", and "let's put Christ back into Christmas"! Fact is, He was never in it in the first place! How do you cope with the card sending – do you send something with tracts in, and not pertaining to "Christmas" or Xmess as some now refer to it as!

Hi Clare, it is a blessing to hear from you!
To address your first question about the blog post regarding leaving family- If it is the post I'm thinking of (http://www.mom4truth.com/?p=402) entitled 'Suffer Me First To Go and Bury My Father', then that is one I wrote and did not repost from David Meyer. Correct me if you're thinking of another. That came directly after having to walk away from both sides of our family. As I stated in that blog, we are told in Scripture to warn and then to dust off our feet against those who reject our warnings. Further, Christ tells us that our family are those who do the will of our Father in Heaven. Our world values the blood relationship, but we are told our family is spiritual (though some may have the gift of having blood relatives that are true remnant brethren). Your job is to share with your family and be Scripturally honest and blunt in the hopes that they may repent of their sin and be converted. But be willing to walk away from them when or if you find they will not repent and choose to remain in iniquity.
To address your other question about cards: We simply don't participate in any aspect of the traditions of Saturnalia/X-mas. We don't send cards (nor do we receive them as most people know we aren't interested). It really has become another day to us. Of course, we still hear Merry Christmas when out in public, but try to take the opportunity to share, 'We don't do Christmas *because* we are Christians!' Time doesn't always allow for us to have that conversation, so in those times we just explain we don't do X-mas. Often they'll say, well we don't do all the traditions, we just try to celebrate the birth of Christ, but as you rightly pointed out, it is not the birth of Christ, nor are we compelled to have a birthday party for Christ.
I am blessed to hear that the Lord has graciously convicted you away from the keeping of sun worship and I encourage you on in your walk on the narrow path. As you are faithful with little, He will bless you with more understanding and you will quickly realize you don't recognize your old self in light of Truth!
May God bless you with continued Truth, knowledge, and discernment. Please stop by and say hi again soon:)

Thanks – yes sorry – it's the article on Saturnalia that is the one I saw on FB from David Meyer..
It was the one about burying my father etc that I read first. Our family are mixed really – one son is against anything we say that's Christian, the others are professing "Christians", yet they still do worldly things, and our daughter in law, although professing Christianity, can't see anything wrong with same sex marriage. My sister in law is a Christian, but hasn't seem to grow much spiritually, she is only new to the faith, and is married to an unbeliever. Her sons are both non believers, although one has been baptised, but shows no fruit, we pray on for the Lord to open their eyes. By the grace of God my husband and I are saved out of the RC church, I left 7 years before he did.
God bless you too

I found this too on another site…
Twas the night before Christmas; and strange as it seems
I wasn't indulging in covetous dreams;
But reading my Bible, I searched for a clue
Why Christians take part in this holiday too.
I plainly could see that it carried His name,
But the spirit behind it just wasn't the same.
The songs spoke of wise men, of virgin and child,
Of shepherds, of God, and all men reconciled;
But nothing was said of the blood and the cross;
Of repentance, and faith, and of counting the cost.
They sang of the babe, His miraculous birth,
But not of the day when He'll judge the whole earth.
My Bible said nothing of Santa, or toys,
Of Frosty the Snowman, and small drummer boys.
A reference to Rudolph not once did I see.
But it seems Jeremiah did mention the tree.
I sat and I pondered this curious matter,
When out on the roof there arose such a clatter
That I knew in a moment he soon would be here;
So I prayed in the Spirit and stood without fear.
He slipped down the chimney, quick as a flash,
And stepped from the fireplace all covered with ash.
There stood St. Nick with his bag and his beard,
He looked at the Bible I held, and he sneered,
"Another fanatical Christian, I see;
No stockings; no holly, no pictures of me."
I asked him if Jesus was God in the flesh,
He said that was something he couldn't confess.
He said, "I am Santa, I come from afar."
I stood in the truth – "The Devil you are.
That suit and that beard doesn't fool me one bit.
Your jolly deception is straight from the pit.
Beneath all your Ho Ho Ho's Lucifer lurks;
With your all-seeing eyes and your gospel of works
Like a thief in the night you impersonate Christ,
Returning to judge the naughty and nice."
"So call Christmas pagan," he said, "That's O.K.
'Cause that's what my sons at the Watchtower say.
You'll look like a pagan or like a deceiver,
But none will suspect you to be a believer."
I said, "I don't care what your servants will say,
My loyalty lies with the Ancient of Days.
No matter how many abuses are hurled,
My Bible says be not conformed to this world.
You have no power, and no part of me,
So I stand on God's Word, and command you to flee."
He squealed like a pig that was stuck with a knife.
He ran to the chimney and climbed for his life.
And I heard him exclaim, as he drove out of sight,
"Merry Xmas to all, and a long, dark night."

Hello again, Claire:)
Thanks for clarifying on the post. I can't remember where I came across it. I think that's why I just post 'repost' on it. Thank you for informing me. I think I found it elsewhere as a repost, so somewhere along the way, I suppose someone got the content from Meyer.
I think your family story sounds similar to many of us. I am blessed that the Lord called you out of the darkness of the RCC. My friend has a similar story and will tell you that she asked a nun for permission to consult the KJV herself on some issues. She says, had the nun said no, she would have refrained, but the nun encouraged her to do so. She said that was the moment scales began to fall from her eyes. She began seeing all the deceptions in her church and could no longer rectify what she was reading with what she was being taught each week. She left out of that movement and went into the Calvary Chapel deception for 20+ years. She has since repented of that as well and now walks simply in Truth. I think we've all sampled the buffet table of apostasy (in fact, I'm planning a blog on that topic!) God has been so gracious to continue leading us in this exodus out of deception into Truth. That path has been littered with the loss of many friends and family. It sounds like the Lord is quickly bringing to your awareness the sad truth about your family members. I'm sorry for the inevitable grief that brings.
I love that poem! Thank you for sharing! I may repost that. I love the part about people thinking you're with the watchtower. We get asked that a lot. People assume you must be with some sort of cult. Because…You can't just obey the Word of God without following vain, man-made traditions? I absolutely love that people can't box us in or lump us in with any group and that makes them very uncomfortable! If we were a part of x-cult, they could dismiss us as crazies, but our commitment to knowing and obeying the Word, nothing more, nothing less makes them have to confront their own Biblical illiteracy and willful iniquity.
So blessed to hear back from you:)

So funny, just had someone email me a post their friend posted on Facebook. It was this one. And you're right, she credits Meyer. Now, too wild if it's the same poster you both know!

December 23rd, 2014 at 1:15 pm
Boy, am I confused. I keep coming across so-called "discernment" sites that are telling about apostasy and delusions within the church, government and media, and then they turn around and say "Merry Christmas!" If you say anything about the truth of what Christmas is, you are labeled "juvenile", judgmental, hateful, mean, unloving etc… It makes my head ( and my heart ) hurt! Love the poem by the way!
Mom4Truth Says:
December 23rd, 2014 at 11:21 pm
T, someone pointed out on Galatians blog that the KJV pastor on YouTube (Bryan Delinger (sp?)) does the same. Speaks variants of Truth but unapologetically promotes Christmas, despite the warnings. Now, I know a while back he did repent of having a bumper sticker with an image of (Sananda Immanuel 'Christ') on it. Could he repent? Totally. Yet, it seems to be a dividing strong hold that will not release its grip on certain (read:most) people and they will not repent of.

"With its title taken from a taunt aimed at a Dover student interested in learning about evolution," wrote NCSE deputy director Glenn Branch in BioScience, "Monkey Girl ... abounds in detail, critically assessed and cogently assembled. Particularly impressive are the thorough account of the events in Dover that precipitated the case and the detailed report of the preparations and maneuvers undertaken by the competing legal teams before the trial. When Humes arrives at the trial — not until the 13th chapter of his book — he continues to provide a fluent and accurate narrative, offering insightful comments on the effectiveness of the witnesses and attorneys."

While the Jindalee Operational Radar Network (JORN) extends part-way across the northern Indian Ocean, government papers online describe it as a "tripwire" in Australia's northern surveillance system, helping underpin the defense of the country from any attack originating from the north.
Local media have said its main use recently has been to track illegal immigrants approaching Australia by boat through the region's largely unguarded northern waters.
The Australian Defence Force was not available for comment on Sunday.
A potential crash site around 1,600 km (1,000 miles) northwest or west of the Australian coast would be well within the search and rescue area of the Australian Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA), one of the largest in the world.

To quote from her email: "A Taste of Am I Hungry? Consists of four free brief but very powerful lessons designed to give you a small sample of what mindful eating is all about, and more important, show you how mindful eating can help you eat what you love and love what you eat!"
Carol then shared one of the Mindful Eating Newsletters she receives entitled "Dining with myself." She also covered some known and unfamiliar home remedies from A to Z that are good for just about anything that "ails ya."
Juda reported on the contest. Jessica is in first place with 128 points. Becky is in second place with 103 points. Dorothy is in third place with 96 points.

Thoughts about the game? I think we wont be to bad if we get some of our players back. Any news about the players that were out
Prins - sick (viral infection according to CycloneWBB tweet).
Bolte - ankle (Achilles), has been bothering her for a week or so. Kept out of today because she wasn't needed, but could have played (according to beginning of game thread).
Last edited by fccy; 12-06-2009 at 09:07 PM.
do you think she will play vs iowa?
Bolte has played the last two games before today with the ankle, I believe; she should be available (just guessing, no inside info).
Prins - just depends on how quick she gets heathly.
Iowa lost to a bad Michigan team today at Iowa City. There's no way a program like ISU should lose to the Hawks - especially after getting pounded by them last year at Carver-Hawkeye.
Should be an interesting game, a lot of inexperienced players will be on the court. Iowa is even more depleted than ISU, and has no answer for Lacey. Iowa's Wahlin ambushed UNI with 33 points, but hasn't been able to duplicate that performance since. The Hawkeye freshmen have been playing well, giving Iowa a really different look from last year's team.
Supposed to be on Mediacom, crossing my fingers.
From BF's weekly press conference:
Prins day-to-day, but likely will not play Thursday.
Bolte could have played Sunday, but coaches decided to rest her. Today, she decribed her ankle as feeling "really good"' and plans to play on Thursday.
*Will Shellie get to play as much in the future? She looked solid at times!!!
*Anna Flo should have played more then 2 min?? She can shoot great
*Hopefully Prins can play she could make this game alot easier!!!
*Resting Bolte was a great move keep her fresh

I think Flo might still be hampered by her achilles. As for Shellie, I bet BF might go to her sooner off the bench. He seemed really pleased with her effort and performance Sunday.

National Fraud Unit officers raid home, office of chief rabbi, who is interrogated for hours on suspicion of fraud, money laundering, pocketing money raised for NGOs; three other suspects, including Metzger's driver, also arrested

Police's National Fraud Unit raided on Thursday the home and office of Chief Rabbi Yona Metzger,
who is suspected of accepting bribes, fraud and money laundering.
Thursday's raid was the culmination of months-long undercover investigation. In the course of the investigation, Rabbi Metzger was brought Thursday morning for a police interrogation under warning.
Related stories:
Metzger was released to five days house arrest after being interrogated under warning for some 10 hours.
He reportedly cooperated with his interrogators and answered all of their questions. The rabbi is banned from leaving the country or contacting three other suspects who were arrested as part of the investigation.
The investigation revealed that Metzger is suspected of pocketing hundreds of thousands of shekels he had raised for different NGOs. It is suspected that the money had made its way from the donors into the pockets of Metzger and his associates.
Metzger's attorneys, Professor David Libai and Elad Rot, said that the chief rabbi has denied all the allegations against him.
The Rishon Letzion Magistrate's Court remanded an additional three suspects in the affair. Chaim Eisenshtat, the rabbi's driver and personal assistant, who is suspected of accepting bribes, was remanded by seven days.
Simcha Krakowsky, the director of a charitable organization, who is suspected of bribery, was remanded by five days. Nissan Ben-Zion Zioni, a director of another non-profit organization, who is also suspected of bribery, was remanded by six days.

The investigation culminated on Thursday when detectives raided Metzger's office and home. They confiscated several documents, seized computers and other property, a lien was filed on the rabbi's and his associates' banking accounts, and three more suspects were arrested.
Following information about Rabbi Metzger allegedly involved in acts associated with illicit money transfers together with several employees of his office, and after consulting with judicial officials, it was decided to launch an undercover investigation of the rabbi.

Attorney General Yehuda Weinstein and State Prosecutor Moshe Lador approved the arrest of the rabbi Thursday. Immediately following the searches, Metzger was brought to questioning at the Police's National Fraud Unit, where he was interrogated in regards to accepting bribes, fraud and money laundering.
Rabbi Metzger's investigation is still at hand and it has yet to be decided whether to remand him. The police will request of the Rishon Letzion Magistrate's Court to remand the additional suspects arrested Thursday.
In 2005 Metzger was interrogated for a few hours by the National Fraud Unit on suspicion of accepting perks equivalent to tens of thousands of shekels from the David Citadel Hotel in Jerusalem,
where he stayed with his family for the high holidays.
Police began investigating Metzger due to suspicions that he and his family paid only a nominal fee for their vacation at the hotel in Jerusalem over Pesach 2004. But during the investigation, police discovered that the Metzgers also received huge discounts at David Citadel that same year during the Sukkot and Shavuot holidays, and enjoyed similarly discounted stays at other hotels. At the time, According to the report, he had allegedly taken two rooms for his family and was only asked to pay for meals.
At the time, the State was funding an apartment for the chief Ashkenazi rabbi in Jerusalem's Rehavia neighborhood.
Following the investigation, police recommended that Metzger be tried for fraud and breach of trust. In light of the police recommendation, the chief rabbi suspended himself from the bench of the High Rabbinic Court and from his membership in the committee for the appointment of rabbinic judges.
A year later, then-Attorney General Menachem Mazuz announced that Metzger would not be indicted, but criticized the chief rabbi's conduct and said he had lied to police investigators.
In December 2012 an indictment was filed against former Chief Sephardi Rabbi Eliahu Bakshi-Doron for complicity in granting about 1,000 fictitious rabbinical ordination certificates to members of the security services so that they could receive significantly higher wages.

A distinguished employment lawyer recently told me that he sees 2012 as the Year of Retaliation.
My friend may be right. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission charges are on the rise; surveys indicate that in-house counsel view reprisal actions as a major concern; the new Dodd-Frank legislation may spark "bounty" charges followed by lawsuits from employees who say they have been punished for pressing their claims.
But my friend's prediction doesn't have to prove true, provided the right steps are taken now. In fact, I glimpsed an alternative future this week. I spoke with Jo Shapiro, a physician who is division chief, otolaryngology at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston, a leading teaching affiliate of Harvard Medical School.
We've worked with Shapiro to develop a program used to train physicians and researchers on professionalism. It addresses how they interact with one another and raise concerns from treatment issues to staff conduct.
What is striking about Shapiro and Brigham and Women's Hospital's approach is that it is centered on delivering the best health care, patient outcomes and teamwork even as its messages and lessons will help prevent unlawful retaliation.
This is how lasting cultural and behavioral standards are set. The most effective "anti-retaliation" approach is to make "surfacing and listening openly to problems" an element of operational excellence and daily behavior, vital to the company's core values, best leadership practices and success.
What organization or leader sincerely committed to continuous improvement is going to honestly invite concerns and then punish the messengers for bringing them forward? The very act of encouraging people to raise questions is itself what goes far to prevent retaliation. The law is included as a piece of the puzzle of "how to succeed" but not the puzzle itself.
Too many compliance efforts place their emphasis on identifying laws that cover the workplace and business, setting up multiple complaint channels to report problems and delivering mandatory legal and policy training to all employees, usually through online courses. These measures are important.
However, making them the focus of preventive efforts frequently divorces handling complaint processes and information from daily operations, behavior and real-world situations to the point where effectiveness of "teaching the law" is minimized.
Returning to an example of the ideal, Shapiro starts her surgeries by introducing herself and asking those in the room to do the same and to raise any issues or questions they have so that if there are problems they may be addressed all for the good of the patient. She welcomes their comments.
She sets a model for conduct and for speaking up, which is carried forward culturally as an ingredient of commitment and excellence. Her commitment to creating an open culture where problems are always heard is embedded in her actions, practice and teachings—a living demonstration of Brigham and Women's Hospital's values and culture.
Let's take a lesson from Shapiro and the hospital and apply it to our workplaces. Preventing retaliation has to be approached from a cultural point of view linked to improving business and professional outcomes first and foremost. Paradoxically, without making reduction of legal risk the primary focus, the cultural approach will significantly reduce legal risk.
To lawyers and compliance professionals, that may seem like putting the carriage before the horse. But this is one instance where that is exactly where the carriage belongs.
There's another advantage to the cultural approach: You get better performance. At some point, every organization will have issues arise that must be addressed. Some will be easy, some difficult.
We need those issues at the heart of such problems to be revealed quickly so that management can correct them before they lead to disaster. This includes thousands of issues which may not involve legal violations.
Still, if not evaluated and fixed promptly, they will be addressed by customers or patients who defect to other products or practices, employees who depart for more attractive places to work or a public that punishes the organization for failing to prevent avoidable catastrophes.
The cultural approach raises all issues—performance and legal. The legal approach only raises the potentially legal issues. Which issues do you want brought to the surface in your organization?
Shapiro's vision is a future in which professionals will see their responsibility as requiring them to act in civil and inclusive ways toward colleagues, team members and others. Second, they'll bring concerns forward if they arise.
In turn, recipients will thank those people raising concerns for having the courage to bring issues forward. As professionals themselves, they'll value learning about hazards sooner rather than later no matter what they involve.
That's the future toward which we should be looking. This is a far more powerful, lasting approach to protect organizations and the public, rather than focusing primarily on reducing complaints or lawsuits.

Human Spaceflight
Neil Armstrong's first steps on the moon marked the pinnacle of achievement of the human spaceflight effort through the sixties. But Apollo was only the last step in a series of spaceflight programs, beginning with the single-seat Mercury, folowed by the Gemini program where Americans learned to live in orbit, and culminating with Apollo 17, the last human mission to the moon.
Since Apollo 17, human spaceflight has continued to achieve new milestones, provide valuable research, and even heal some of the ties severed by the Space Race.

Police seek man accused of stealing copper from Scranton church
Scranton detectives filed charges against a city man for stealing copper downspouts from a city church and issued a warrant for his arrest.
Police said Bernett Gruber, 33, 607 Quincy Ave., stole the downspouts from the church on July 15 and 16 and later sold them for scrap.
Detective Michael Schultz got an anonymous tip that led to Mr. Gruber on July 17, the day The Times-Tribune first reported the string of thefts. One week before those thefts, another theft of copper downspouts had occurred at the church. Mr. Gruber has not been charged in that theft.
The tipster told Detective Schultz the thief sold the spouts at Booth's & Son Scrap Yard Inc., 125 Railroad Ave., and that he drove a black PT Cruiser. The scrap yard told Detective Schultz a man driving a black PT Cruiser brought in copper downspouts on July 16. They provided police with paperwork identifying Mr. Gruber and a receipt from the transaction. His address is one block from the church, but he was not home when Detective Schultz paid a visit.
Mr. Gruber faces theft and related charges for two of three thefts from Covenant Presbyterian Church on Olive Street within the past month.
Mr. Gruber was on probation and is also wanted on a bench warrant.

I have to install new rim tape. How tight should I pull the tape when installing it. It seems that the last I installed has slipped some and allowed a series of flats to pleague my ride today!
I have to install new rim tape. How tight should I pull the tape when installing it. It seems that the last I installed has slipped some and allowed a series of flats to pleague my ride today!
Using Velox, I pull it pretty tight. Not crazy, strain-my-@ass-off tight, but I keep it pretty snug all the way around. After a week or two, it dimples in where the spokes are, and shows the outline of the bushings, but still prevents tube damage.
Be sure you have the right width for you rim. It should completely cover the bed and may even look a little too wide before you put it in. Hope this helps.
You want to make sure before you put the tube on that none of the spoke ends are poking through because these could pop tubes really easily.
http://www.cyclistsroadmap.com/eng/ - Cyclists' road map. Checkout which roads are good for cycling and rate roads in your area.
I don't have any spoke ends poking through. It just seems that the rim tape that I have in now has shifted to one side a little too far. In one place it even has folded up on its self some. The flats where caused by the edge of a rim hole being exposed.
Velox is self-adhesive. As long as you clean the surface, it wont shift. Why use anything else.
I put the salsa brand rim strip on and it also has and adhesive back. This was the first time I had ever insalled this product so I was thinking maby I didn't pull it taught enough on the initial installation. It looks to be the same as the Velox, just that it's red.
I trust the velox. Make sure it is wide enough tho, it comes in three widths and you want it to go from bead to bead. Some rims have a film of lube on them from manufacturing and you want to wipe them down with rubbing alcohol(or something similar) I keep it snug when I pull it on but not to tight because it can cock the stem as it "returns".

In Case You Missed the Super Bowl
That bitter taste left in the mouths of Bay Area folk will forever be accompanied by an image of an irate, hatless Jim Harbaugh pleading at an official for a holding call.
Instead, the San Francisco 49ers' quest for a sixth Super Bowl triumph ultimately ended in a 34-31 defeat to the Baltimore Ravens on the controversial fourth-down play, which saw plenty of contact between Baltimore's Jimmy Smith and San Francisco's Michael Crabtree.

Sam Osterhout
The host of Radio Happy Hour loves the Twin Cities, indie pop and the airwaves. Let him plan your week.
Mon Mar 8 2010
Sam Osterhout
Thu 11
Morbid sushi
For a dose of history, Radio Happy Hour founder Sam Osterhout wants to hit up the Tenement Museum (108 Orchard St at Broome St; 212-982-8420, tenement.org; $15--$20 for its hour-long tour "The Moores: An Irish Family in America," which explores the apartment of a 19th-century family struggling to deal with the death of a child. Next, he'll head to his favorite sushi joint in the city, Marumi (546 La Guardia Pl between Bleecker and W 3rd Sts, 212-979-7055). "[There's] nothing like 19th-century poverty-stricken immigrants to work up an appetite for sushi," he jokes. He'll chow on salmon ($2) and eel ($2.50) from the la carte menu, and chase them down with a bottle of Asahi beer ($7.50).
Fri 12
Twin City rock
Osterhout moved to New York from Minneapolis in 2008 and pays homage to his hometown tonight: He's heading to Brooklyn to catch a performance by indie-pop duo the Twilight Hours at Union Hall (702 Union St between Fifth and Sixth Aves, Park Slope, Brooklyn; 718-638-4400, unionhallny.com; 7:30pm; $10--$12). The band, like Osterhout, hails from the Twin Cities. Then it's back to Manhattan for a set by his friend Benji Rogers—who performs country-rock songs under the moniker Marwood—at Rockwood Music Hall (196 Allen St between Houston and Stanton Sts; 212-477-4155, rockwoodmusichall.com; 10pm, free). "It's lucky for both of us that I like his music," says Osterhout, whose wife is BFF with Rogers's wife.
Sat 13
The Radio Happy Hour community
Radio Happy Hour (radiohappyhour.com) began in 2009 as a larger version of Electric Arc Radio, a live radio sitcom that Osterhout hosted back in Minneapolis. "It grew into a large-scale radio program—but it's not actually on the radio," he explains. The "live mystery meets late-night talk show" format mixes interviews (Craig Finn, Norah Jones, Tunde Adebimpe) with stories written by Osterhout in the style of old-timey radio mysteries (Andrew W.K. once starred as John Bender from The Breakfast Club) and musical performances. Tonight's show, which takes place at RHH home base (Le) Poisson Rouge (158 Bleecker St at Thompson St; 212-505-3474, lepoissonrouge.com; doors 1pm, show 2pm; $10--$12), is the seventh show Osterhout has hosted in New York. Special guests include Omaha indie-rockers Cursive, author Arthur Phillips (Prague), and sketch-comedy siblings John and Molly Knefel. "I [thought I] built an audience of people that came all the time," Osterhout says. "But really, I was building a community."
Sun 14
Hitchcockian confessions
On Sundays, Osterhout and his wife like to abandon their East Village neighborhood for Fort Greene. They'll start by checking out Jessica DeCarlo's handmade jewelry ($20--$200) and whatever else catches their fancy at the Brooklyn Flea (1 Hanson Place at Flatbush Ave, Fort Greene, Brooklyn; brooklynflea.com; 10am--5pm). Afterward, the couple plans to attend a screening of Alfred Hitchcock's 1953 suspense thriller, I Confess, at BAM Rose Cinemas (30 Lafayette Ave between Ashland Pl and St. Felix St, Fort Greene, Brooklyn; 718-636-4100, bam.org; 4:30, 9:15pm; $8--$12). "I've never even heard of that Hitchcock film, which either implies that I'm a philistine or that BAM shows unique, original films," says Osterhout. "Or both."
Mon 15
Cheese break
Because he works at home (on his own projects and as a teacher for the Minnesota School of Business's online program), Osterhout needs to escape the confines of his East Village apartment from time to time. He occasionally spends a few hours writing at Italian caf Ballaro (77 Second Ave between 4th and 5th Sts, 212-228-2969), where he orders an eggplant, mushroom, and fontina panino ($7), and black coffee ($1.50). Afterward, he'll stop by Essex Market's Saxelby Cheesemongers (120 Essex St at Delancey St; 212-228-8204, saxelbycheese.com; Mon--Sat 9am--7pm), which specializes in cheeses from Northeastern dairies. "They are one of the only places I've been to in New York that sells the kind of cheese curds one might find in Wisconsin," says the cheese freak. "Amazing, fattening and delicious." Saxelby sells cheddar curds from upstate New York farm Hillcrest Dairy by the pound for $13.99.
Tue 16
New Year's cleanse
Osterhout and his lady, who is Persian, observe the holiday Nowruz , which typically falls on the first day of spring. They celebrate with a little spring cleaning, both spiritually and materially (Osterhout calls the ritual a "cleansing"). The duo will then head to a friend's house to build a customary blaze in the tradition of the Persian New Year. "You're giving the fire all your bad stuff," he explains. From fire pit to fiery food—for a dinner at Mesa Coyoacan (372 Graham Ave between Conselyea St and Skillman Ave; Williamsburg, Brooklyn; 718-782-8171, mesacoyoacan.com) Osterhout digs the grilled Mexican style corn in a cup ($7).
Wed 17
Vegetarian St. Paddy's
Avoiding St. Patrick's Day buffoonery isn't easy in Osterhout's neighborhood, but he wants to sidestep the debauchery. First, he'll tuck into a vegetarian Irish breakfast ($11), which he calls a "gut bomb," at quiet St. Dymphna's (118 St. Marks Pl between First Ave and Ave A, 212-254-6636), before meeting up with friends in Park Slope. He and his crew will hang at O'Connor's Pub (39 Fifth Ave between Dean and Bergen Sts, Park Slope, Brooklyn; 718-783-9721), which serves free corned-beef sandwiches (beginning at noon) in honor of St. Paddy's. Since Osterhout doesn't eat red meat, he'll replace the gratis beef with bottles of Guinness ($4.50). You don't need to enjoy snacking on cow to close your week with a hearty slinte.

Super Model & Mom Eva Herzigova Makes Us All Jealous (Photos)Sunny Chanel
When you think of a mom of two young children, I don't know about you, but I think of a frazzled sweats wearing woman. But super model and mom of two Eva Herzigova is not that kind of mom. She is that other kind, the kind that makes all us other moms jealous.
Eva Herzigova was at Cannes film festival and showed off her gams on the red carpet in support of the film "The Conquest." The 5′ 11″ super model added even more height in a bold pair of 6-inch red heels which she paired with short shorts.
Check out more photos of Eva Herzigova showing off her mommy bod here!
