Digital revolution
WORLD's new iPad app
Just as Apple on Feb. 15 broadened its terms of service to allow publishers to offer subscriptions to digital publications through the iTunes Store, WORLD's iPad app is out of development and submitted for Apple's approval. As soon as we receive a thumbs-up from Cupertino, iPad owners will be able to go to the iTunes store and download the inaugural digital edition of WORLD.
This is phase one of two initial phases. The first is a free sample issue-meant to introduce WORLD to readers who have never heard of us before, and to provide WORLD print readers a glimpse of the digital future. Phase two will provide a subscription-based iPad magazine that will contain all the content of our print editions, with digital extras like HD image quality, photo galleries, audio, and video, and without the analog frustrations of postal delays and, for some, difficult-to-read text.
Hundreds of hours of sometimes difficult but mostly joyful work went into the production of WORLD's iPad app. It is not merely a miniaturized print edition. We designed it to take full advantage of the technical capabilities of new tablet technology. And we have plans to roll out new editions for new platforms to reach new readers wherever they are with biblical worldview journalism. We're not lessening our commitment to print-but the digital revolution has changed publishing forever, and, we think, for the better.

So, here goes the rest of the story. Or I guess the story since I never told you the actual story, but just the ending? Nevermind...here's what happened. As you may recall from this post, I had planned on trying adoptive breastfeeding. In order to do that, you have to take some meds to induce lactation. For best success with actually getting a supply, it is recommended that you take birth control. Well, as I had not been on birth control in several years, I had made an appointment to go see my doctor and get started on the pill. My appointment was coming up, so I was filling out the necessary forms and I started to try to figure out when my last cycle was, and suddenly was like..."Woah...I'm late." Though my cycle is pretty much like clock work, I convinced myself it was probably just stress or something causing me to be late. So I let most of the day go by, and by 6 pm that evening I said to myself, "What the heck, I'll just go buy a test at Dollar Tree and that way it's not a total waste. Plus I could totally go for some of their apple bars right now." (Have you had those?! SO good!!)
So off I go to Dollar Tree. I've always heard their tests work. Since they were always negative for me, I assumed they didn't...but turns out they were actually right, so I guess they did work? {I ramble too much.} So I bought 2 pregnancy tests, 1 box of apple bars, 3 styrofoam balls for a project I saw on a blog awhile back, and a Diet Dr. Pepper (that was fun while that lasted). I drove back home and took the test like the rebel I am, nevermind the fact that it says to take it first thing in the morning. So I took it, and here is what I saw:
Do you see that faaaaint line in the test panel? Yeah, never had a *thing* there before. I thought my eyes were just seeing things, so I took a picture, and saw it in the picture, so decided we might be on to something here. I debated back and forth on if I should go buy the real deal. The emotions I was experiencing at that time were unreal. It was just weird...I don't really know how to describe it. So next thing I know, I'm driving to Wal-Mart and trying to call Patrick. I couldn't reach him, so thought I'd just go buy a real test so I'm not wondering.
In to Wal-Mart I go...and buy a box of the digital dummy proof tests and a cup. No, I'm not coordinated enough to pee on the stick for 5 seconds, so a cup was necessary. And I didn't want to wait to drive back home to take the test, so here I come ghetto-fab Wal-Mart bathroom. All I remember was holding my breath because it smelled SO bad in there I thought I was going to vomit. Then next thing you know, this popped up...(please note: this picture was not actually taken in the Wal-Mart bathroom, but the test was. :) )
So yeah, that's when the freaking out started. I couldn't believe. This can't be happening, right? But it was. So I quickly tried to think of a neat way to tell Patrick. When we first started trying to get pregnant, I had so many fun ideas stashed away. Somehow, those all vanished from my mind so I did the most unoriginal thing ever and wrapped up my pregnancy test. Fortunately I was still at Wal-Mart, so I went back and picked up a little gift bag and a greeting card. When I was checking out, the cashier noticed I had another Wal-Mart bag already so said, "I'm going to need to see your bag and receipt please." Umm...awkward. My eyes were darting so she probably thought I was stealing something. When she saw an open box of pregnancy tests she quickly said, "You're fine" and her right eye started twitching. Good thing I wasn't buying a "With Regrets" greeting card...that probably would've sent her over the edge.
So here is the little package all ready for Patrick. It sat waiting....and waiting...and waiting for him to get home. FINALLY he got home and was all surprised to have a gift. He read the card first but still had no clue. So he opened the bag and pulled out the pregnancy test and said...."Where'd you get this?! Who's is this?!" I said "It's mine!" and he was just speechless. For like ever. He just kept saying "wow" and "no way" over and over. Then he made me take the other one to prove it was really mine. :) Not really, but I did take the other one and it came up the same way, and we still couldn't believe it. After another test or 7, we took some time to pray together and thank God for this miracle, as well as ask for guidance on the adoption front. We knew our agency's policy, but there was still a lot to consider. (I will go into all that in the next post.) It was a wonderful time together that brought tears, both of joy and sadness, for various reasons. It is so incredibly humbling to receive a miracle from God...it means so much to so many, and we thank God for this incredible blessing.
Well, though I am done with the huge presentation, I still have several other work related things I have to take care of so I'm going to have to stop here today. I promise to be back tomorrow to continue the details though! Now I'm off to take care of a few things and catch up on some blog reading in between. Can't wait...I've missed you guys!! :)


text: WARRENTON, Ore. — Children from Vancouver and the region learned about living positive lives during a summer camp for at-risk youth at the Camp Rilea Armed Forces Training Center in Warrenton, Ore. The 9- to 11-year-old kids who visited Camp Rosenbaum from July 28 to Aug. 2 were taught — through activities and mentorship — to set goals for their future, stay off drugs, do well in school and keep away from gangs. The Oregon National Guard, Home Forward, Portland Police Bureau and other regional agencies hosted the annual Camp Rosenbaum. About 160 kids from Southwest Washington and Oregon visited the camp this year. "We do our best to set them up for success," said camp director and Oregon Air National Guard Lt. Col. Sara Perkins in a press release. "We want our campers to know that good citizens are everywhere in their community."

Watch Out, World, Here Comes Diane von Furstenberg
Before the ubiquitous wrap dress, before the CFDA lifetime achievement award and the multi-million dollar luxury brand, Diane von Furstenberg was just a newbie designer making sales calls from her living room. OK, she wasn't just any newbie designer, she was Princess Diane von Furstenberg through her marriage to German Prince Egon von Furstenberg in 1969. The 23-year-old Belgian and her husband had recently moved to New York City, had a baby and quickly became a fixture in the society pages, thanks to her good looks and great fashion sense. But von Furstenberg wasn't one to rest on her title. When the New York Times profiled the princess on this day in 1970, she Read More »
Fashion Statement: Diane von Furstenberg
"We all have a Wonder Woman inside us." —American designer Diane von Furstenberg. On this day in 1976, von Furstenberg was featured on the cover of Newsweek, which called her the most marketable designer since Coco Chanel. The Wonder Woman quote was given to the same magazine more than 30 years later, when she launched her limited-edition comic book, The Adventures of Diva, Viva and Fifa, in 2008. Read More »
Fashion Statement: Diane von Furstenberg
"Building a wardrobe is like building a circle of friends your whole life…. Your own beauty is to be yourself, but of course we need tools and accessories."

I too thought it to be bland. My husband said it tasted like beef stew. LOL
We had this tonight for dinner. It was easy to prepare and the house smelled amazing. The family kept asking when it would be done. We all enjoyed it very much and I had to promise to make it again next week!
I found the flavor to be okay but it never got 'folk tender' even though it cooked on low for 9 hours.

SAVANNAH, Ga. (AP) - Authorities say a 25-year-old woman died Sunday after a boating accident on the Ogeechee River in the Savannah area.
The Savannah Morning News reports that police and paramedics responded to King's Ferry boat ramp off U.S. 17 around 5:23 p.m. Sunday.
Georgia Department of Natural Resources Capt. Doug Lewis said Shana Crozier of Savannah was pronounced dead at the scene.
Lewis said investigators were told that a boat went under a train trestle east of the ramp in the Ogeechee River in Chatham County when Crozier was hit by the trestle. Authorities say Crozier stood up in the boat and hit the trestle.
There were other occupants in the boat, which Lewis said was about 18 feet long.

ARA Takes Note: FDA Approves FulyzaqReturn to The Insider: News & Views
February 28 2013
The Food & Drug Administration's (FDA) approval of botanical drug Fulyzaq (Crofelemer) is of particular significance to AIDS Research Alliance. ARA was an investigational site in the clinical trial stage of the drug's development, and ARA is working on its own botanically sourced HIV cure strategy – prostratin.
Fulyzaq is the first drug the FDA has ever approved for the treatment of HIV-related diarrhea. Diarrhea is a common side effect of the drugs prescribed to manage HIV/AIDS. The diarrhea can cause rapid weight loss and depression. The symptoms can be so severe that some patients discontinue or switch their medications prematurely. With Fulyzaq, which is taken twice daily, watery diarrhea caused by electrolyte and water secretion in the gut can be managed, allowing patients to continue their treatment regimens.
Fulyzaq (Crofelemer) marks the second time the FDA has ever approved a botanical drug. Like prostratin, Fulyzaq is plant-derived. It originates from the red sap of the Croton lechleri plant, which grows in northwestern South America. Similar to the Mamala plant, source of prostratin, which was used for centuries by Samoans to treat "yellow fever" or hepatitis, the Croton lechleri plant has a history of use by native healers in the Amazon to treat diarrhea and other health conditions.
ARA Medical Director and Vice President Dr. Stephen Brown commented on the approval, "Crofelemer marks the first new mechanism for the treatment of diarrhea in decades. The clinical trial process took a number of years, and ARA's involvement goes back to the initial studies conducted by Shaman, and subsequently, to those conducted by Napo and Salix. " He continued, "We have always considered this drug a very important advance in the treatment of diarrhea. Because many people are uncomfortable talking about this symptom, even with their physicians, recruitment for the studies could have been difficult. Despite this, we were very successful, indicating just how serious and persistent the underlying symptom is."
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that between 150,000 and 180,000 patients on ART suffer from diarrhea (not caused by infection or a gastrointestinal disease).
Salix Pharmaceuticals distributes Fulyzaq in the USA, under license from Napo Pharmaceuticals Inc.

Meli shows his "Faith"
Francis Meli will be a Warrior until the end of the 2006 season at least after agreeing to terms on a new deal on Thursday.
The Warriors previously had an option on Meli's services for next year, but have scrapped that in favour of structuring a new arrangement.
Warriors CEO Mick Watson was both pleased and proud to be able to finalise the announcement.
"Francis has been an integral part of the club since our organisation took ownership, and it is vitally important that we retain local talent of Francis' quality as we continue to build and add to our squad," Watson said.
"Francis delivers outstanding attributes to the team via both his performance on the field, and his attitude and approach to football off it.
"His work ethic, professionalism and the way in which he interacts with our younger players sees Francis regarded as a truly outstanding clubman."
Head coach Tony Kemp was very enthusiastic about the announcement.
"The club views Francis as being the premier winger in New Zealand," he said.
"The fact that he plays the game in the Wendell Sailor and Lote Tuqiri mode means that he consistently gives us value all over the park in both attack and defence.
"Even more pleasing is the fact that as he continues to learn, his best years are definitely still to come."
Meli admitted he couldn't see himself playing for another team.
"The Warriors are the side that I began my NRL career with," he said.
"We have enjoyed some great success over the past few seasons and with the steps that the club is taking now, I am very confident that we will experience much more success in the very near future."

The management team in Unicon Concrete's Foothills Area used its goal of ISO 9002 registration as a chance to achieve the next level of quality.
When a company has been successful, it's important to show employees that change will be for the good.
In the fall of 1998, Godwin Amekuedi was appointed director of quality management and brought a different approach to his position by establishing a Quality Management System (QMS) documentation program.
Unicon managers had realized that the concrete production industry was changing dramatically. The stereotype that concrete was produced by low-technology, undereducated, and uncaring employees with no regard for customer satisfaction would no longer be acceptable. "The hardest part has been changing traditional mindsets to the more proactive QMS concepts, business practices, and philosophy," says Amekuedi. We found that convincing employees to change is the hardest task that managers must accomplish.
Unicon started off by trying to explain the ISO 9002 standards to each employee, so that everyone would understand why Unicon had begun the QMS. Over a short time, employees began to understand the importance of ISO 9002 registration.
There were two major objections: too much paperwork and too little time to complete the new procedures.
Fortunately, there was strong team support from plant managers. Tim Kinder, Denver, N.C., plant manager, found the new organization of the paperwork to be the hardest challenge in the implementation of ISO 9002. One key procedural challenge Kinder and other plant managers faced was certifying that all raw material received from each supplier met the minimum Unicon-established requirements.
Unicon knew that once the system was in place and minor problems were eliminated, employees would have more than enough productive time in their shifts to keep up with the new QMS requirements. For managers, better time management became a key goal.
Cost savings and increased profitability are some of the benefits. But the ISO registration process has also helped in some day-to-day activities:
More importantly, implementing QMS and receiving ISO registrations have maintained the pride employees always had in Unicon. " We want to be first in quality and first in service," says David Cahill, ready-mix truck driver.
N.C.-based Unicon Concrete LLC's Foothills area received ISO 9002 registration on March 16, 2000. Along with this article is Unicon Concrete's Quality Vision and Creed.
If you want to learn more about the ISO registration process, browse the The Concrete Producer's online article archive for a June 1997 article, "What Does ISO 9000 Certification Mean to Concrete Producers."
This summer, the U.S. Supreme Court let stand the vast majority of the Affordable Care...
It's a great time to be part of the concrete industry. We need to be ready to embrace...
Producers may be forced to hire some familiar faces who had been working as independent...

Ephesians 2:4-6 says that God has "raised us up with Him and seated us with Him in the heavenly places." Someone asked me if this means that somehow our spirits are actually with Him in heaven now? And if not, what does it mean?
Briefly, Ephesians 1 speaks of the blessings we have in Christ. Verse 3 says that God "has blessed us in the Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places," then goes on to talk about those many blessings. We who are in Christ have incredible spiritual blessings that we don't always even realize we have.
In chapter 2, we read that we were spiritually dead (though physically alive) until God made us alive. This does not mean that our souls have departed our bodies, but that we now have new life in Christ. Therefore, in a spiritual sense, we have been raised from the dead. To say that we are now seated in the heavenly places means that we have achieved victory over the "prince of the power of the air" (2:2). We are enthroned, and though we will not fully realize that victory until our bodily resurrection from the dead, we experience it somewhat now and have certainty of it for eternity.
Do you have that new life? Have you been raised from the dead? Are you now living in victory, looking forward to that glorious day when death will be no more? If not, would you turn to Jesus today? If you have questions, feel free to email email@example.com.

Time's Arrow
Anna Comnena
Amari Quaesitor
At Anna's request, Symeon has reformed her into a woman of inhuman and predatory beauty. She wears elaborate clothing that marks her station.
Anna Comnena was born to rule – or so she thought. The eldest child of Emperor Alexius I Comnenus, she was betrothed to an imperial candidate at an early age and prepared for life as empress of New Rome. An avid student and brilliant thinker, she absorbed political, theological, scientific and philosophical teachings with a passion that stunned her tutors and made her parents proud. When her young brother John became heir apparent, however, her lifelong dreams were shattered. She fell into a bitter hatred for her fraternal rival and tried to have him killed. Her plots, however, were repeatedly thwarted, and John was eventually forced to exile her to a convent for the rest of her days. There she wrote her famous Alexiad. an account of her father's reign.
Anna's will and intelligence brought her to the attention of Ducas, the Amari guardian of the imperial family. He recognised nizcd in her the drive that could save the crumbling empire, but also the hatred and jealousy that could destroy it. When Anna was exiled, Ducas armnged to watch over her while she toiled at her chronicle. and he subtly guided her to understand her brother. When she laid down her pen after complering the Alexiad – her hatreds vented and purged-she prepared to die, hoping to make peace with her deceased brother in the hereafter. That was when Ducas took her.
As a vampire, Anna has found her drive reborn in a pure form. Bringing her knowledge and skill to the efforts of the Comneni's mentor Belisarius, she has risen to become both Quaesitor and chamberlain, overseeing her c1anmates and opposing the old Caesar Magister Nicepherus. In the process she has gained a respect for the Quaesitors Symeon and Petronius the Arbiter. As Belisarius' plans falter, however, and Nicepherus regains favor, Anna finds it increasingly difficult to ignore the call of blood and glory.
Sire: Ducas

Jodi leads a multi-level Girl Scout troop of 40 girls ranging in age from 5-18 years of age.
Doing crafts with a larger group can be a challenge. Doing the same craft with different ages in the group make it even more difficult. Usually we start with pairing each of the younger children with one of the older children. In my experience, older kids love to assist young children. It makes them feel grown up. And younger kids love to be mentored by a "big kid". They feel special.
Usually, we set up our craft tables in a horseshoe shape around a craft leader. There is at least one other adult that walks around the group to help. The craft is demonstrated and explained one step at a time by the craft leader. The older child finishes the step and then helps the younger partner finish theirs. We always have a completed craft available for the viewing.
If possible, we use glue dots or we will use tacky glue. School glue takes too long to dry and glue guns can be dangerous. If using tacky glue, we put a small amount in a little disposable cup for each pair to share. They spread the tacky glue with craft sticks or, for smaller details, toothpicks will work better. Clothespins can often help to keep pieces in place while they drying. If glue guns are required for part of the project, we set up at least one glue gun station with several pairs of dollar store gloves. An adult should be at each station. Before the adult applies the glue, the child should put on a pair of gloves. This will protect little fingers from any oozing glue. Use craft sticks to press down after gluing.
Always use low temperature glue guns. Multiple pairs of gloves will keep the line moving.
We set up each work station with all the pieces of the craft on a disposable plate. We write the child's name on the plate while their projects are drying. Hopefully, an activity can be planned to allow for drying time. If not, the paper plates make it easier for the kids to bring their projects home to dry.
Prepackaged peel-and-stick craft kits are inexpensive and easy to plan. Sometimes we make our own kits in zip lock bags. Either way, have extra kits on hand in case there are missing pieces. These kits are great for large groups but don't work with mixed ages. The children will enjoy crafting more if it is age-appropriate. Think about doing projects that the kids can make which will reflect their own style. Allow for creativity by given them several different types of supplies to choose from.
Picture frames are an easy, inexpensive craft for a large group. You can use any type of craft material to put together a frame. We have made them out of cardboard or gotten inexpensive foam frames from MakingFriends.com to decorate. We have used stickers, rubber stamps, foam shapes, gems, duct tape and even covered them with twigs for a nature frame.
Fabric crafts are great for groups. Pillowcases, tee shirts, white socks, or even white shoe laces are fun to decorate. You can use acrylic paint, fabric markers, fabric scraps or gems. We've made tie-dyed socks with permanent markers and rubbing alcohol. You can get directions here.
After many years of working with large mixed-aged groups, I've come to the conclusion that it is to let kids do "their own thing". All I have to do is make sure that they have the correct choice of supplies and make sure there are suitable work stations. It's less expensive, easier to plan and more fun for everyone… especially me!
In Conclusion, "Be Prepared" is the Girl Scout Motto so that is what you need to try to do. For large groups this is the best advice I can give you, the more prepared you are the smoother it goes.

DRAMA actress Judy Ann Santos said she is proud to have made the right choices in picking the cast of her upcoming series "Huwag Ka Lang Mawawala."
Marking her comeback in the world of "teleseryes," Santos said she is very proud of Sam Milby, who will portray a role far from what the viewers usually see him play.
Santos said she was able to convince Milby to accept this project, saying that this series will be his "vehicle" to take on more mature characters.
Aside from Santos and Milby, "Huwag Ka Lang Mawawala" will also feature KC Concepcion and a special guest appearance of veteran actress Amalia Fuentes.
The series will air its pilot episode on June 17 on ABS-CBN's Primetime Bida block. (abs-cbnnews.com)

HEAP is a federally-funded program designed to assist eligible low-income Ohioans with their winter heating bills. Households may be eligible for assistances from HEAP, WCP, SCP, or HWAP if the household income is at or below 200% of the federal poverty guidelines (see Federal Poverty Guidelines chart). Households may be eligible for assistance from PIPP if the household income is at or below 150% of the federal poverty guidelines. Once your application has been processed, you will receive a notification letter telling you whether or not you are eligible for bill payment assistance. If you are eligible, the amount of your benefit will depend on federal funding levels, how many people live with you, total household income, and the primary fuel you use to heat your home. In most cases, benefits will be a credit applied to your energy bill by your utility company. This is a one-time per year benefit. If you are eligible for weatherization services, your application will be obtainable by the agency providing services in your area. The types of assistance you receive will be based on your home's energy efficiency. If you live in federally-subsidized housing and have a utility bill in your name, you may be eligible for assistance.
If you are age 60 or over, you may obtain application assistance for HEAP in your local county through the following AAA7 partners:
Adams County: Adams County Senior Citizens Center 937-544-3956Brown County: Brown County Senior Citizens Center 937-378-6603Gallia County: RSVP of the Ohio Valley 740-286-4918Highland County: Highland County Community Action 937-393-3458Jackson County: RSVP of the Ohio Valley 740-286-4918Lawrence County: Lawrence County Community Action 740-532-3534Pike County: Pike County Community Action 740-289-2371Ross County: Ross County Senior Citizens Center 740-773-3544Scioto County: United Scioto Senior Activities 740-354-6672Vinton County: Vinton County Senior Citizens Center 740-596-4706
The Ohio Development Services Agency also offers several programs to help low-income Ohioans pay their utility bills and improve the energy efficiency of their homes. Through the same Energy Assistance Program application mentioned above, you can apply for the Home Energy Assistance Program (HEAP), the Winter Crisis Program (WCP), the Summer Crisis Program (SCP), Percentage of Income Payment Plan (PIPP) and the Home Weatherization Assistance Program (HWAP). For the Winter Crisis Program and Summer Crisis Program, you need to make an appointment at the local community action agency, which is the local provider for these programs:

Born: 08/30/1977
Birth Place: Rockville, Maryland, USA
The round-faced, blondish and slightly chubby Henson had his first substantial film role in 1989's cop/dog buddy film "Turner & Hooch". More memorable was his work as Fulton Reed in Disney's "The Mighty Ducks" (1992), a film co-starring his younger brother Garrette. Noticed after a puck he hits breaks the hockey coach's car window, Fulton has to learn to skate to join the Ducks, and then becomes the team's enforcer and protector. He reprised this role for the popular 1994 and 1996 sequels. Big with the small set, "The Mighty Ducks" trilogy won Henson both fans and recognition, and helped to pave the way for larger roles.

In Chapter 8 of Daniel, the Prophet has a most amazing vision! He is at the River Ulai and meets the Angel Gabriel and one other heavenly being named "that certain saint" in many English translations (8:13). While I was studying the Book of Daniel, I found this particular story very intriguing, and the Holy Spirit immediately impressed upon me the importance of this saint, so I set out to discover more about him. What an amazing journey this has been! Bear with me, for I am anxious to share what I have uncovered . . .
From http://www.servinghistory.com/topics/Palmoni
"Palmoni appears as a name in the original Hebrew in the book of Daniel 8:13. The widely used 1611 King James Bible refers to Palmoni indirectly as 'that certain saint' . . . 'or,' as a marginal note from the translators says, 'the numberer of secrets, or, the wonderful numberer: Heb. Palmoni.'"
Two 19th-century writers wrote entire books entitled "Palmoni": Francis John Bodfield Hooper was the author of Palmoni: An Essay of the Chronological and Numerical Systems in Use Among the Ancient Jews (1851) and Milo Mahan penned Palmoni, or, The Numerals of Scripture (1863).
Certainly, most readers of the Bible are aware of the angels Gabriel and Michael, but who is "this certain saint" who appeared to Daniel by the River Ulai?
From the root word "Palmowniy" is derived the name for this certain saint "Palmoni". Now, taking this a step further we can look to the Young's Literal Translation for the specific root term meaning, Daniel 8:13-
"And I hear a certain holy one speaking, and a certain holy one saith to the wonderful numberer who is speaking: Till when [is] the vision of the continual [sacrifice], and of the transgression, an astonishment, to make both sanctuary and host a treading down?"
This is a major end-times verse, which is absolutely exciting!
Courtesy of the Bible Wheel- http://www.biblewheel.com/gr/GR_Database.asp
|Strong's Number H6422-
פלמוני palmowniy {pal-mo-nee'} probably for 06423; TWOT – 1772a; pron AV – that certain 1; 1 1) a certain one
Palmoni Strong's 7140, 6422 פַּלְמֹנִי
"Palmoni means 'Certain one' a particular, but single indefinite person or thing
The revealing angel is called 'The Numberer of secrets' or 'the wonderful numberer' / Palmoni (1). He is the numberer of secrets, for from him there is nothing hidden—the wonderful numberer, so others; his name is called Wonderful."
I will share some more detailed information on this fabulous, mysterious, heavenly being which I found during my research. Some of this information will seem repetitive, but the importance must be stressed!
Daniel meets Palmoni:
Within his vision Daniel is in the Persian province of Elam, near the city of Shusan (Susa), and adjacent to the River Ulai, a canal about 900' wide. Daniel was approximately 69 years old, and the year was 551 to 550 BC.
Quoting from the article "211. Angel Palmoni Bearer of secrets"
"In Daniel 8:13 we read, 'Then I heard one saint speaking, and another saint said unto that certain saint which spake, How long shall be the vision concerning the daily sacrifice, and the transgression of desolation,' etc.? Here, a revelation of a certain future prophetic event was made to Daniel, by a certain saint or holy one, i.e., a holy angel; and 'another' angel asked a question concerning numbers—'How long,' etc.? The name of 'that certain saint' is given in the Hebrew, and is placed in the margin, with its meaning. His name is 'PALMONI,' and it means 'the numberer of secrets, or the wonderful numberer.'"
"So that there is one holy angel, at least, whose function has to do with numbers. Numbers, therefore, and their secrets, hold an important place in the words as well as in the works of God. "A wonderful numbered" ("PALMONI") presides over them, and has his place in making known the things of God . . . not only the "days" in which revealed events shall take place are numbered, but the words also themselves are numbered- then we shall have a great and wondrous proof of the Divine, verbal, and even literal inspiration of the Word of God. 'It is the glory of God to conceal a thing: but the honour of kings is to search out a matter' (Proverbs 25:2). In searching out, therefore, the secrets of the Word of God, we are doing not only a royal, but an honourable work."
In the book "Signpost of History" by J. Bernard Nicklin, the summary reads-
"The prophet Daniel earnestly desired to know the meaning of the times and under the tutelage of Palmoni, the Wonderful Numberer, -The Numberer of Secrets- he was wonderfully blessed with revelations concerning future things."
From an incredible sermon by Dr. Ian R.K. Paisley entitled "The Numbers of Scripture"-
-we find, the subtitled portion of his sermon called "THE WONDERFUL NUMBERER" in which Dr. Paisley states:
"If you have an Authorised Version you will find that the marginal reading is 'The numberer of secrets, or the wonderful numberer'
Here we have an angel of God and the business of that angel, his celestial task, has to do with numbers. He is the Lord's mathematician. He does the arithmetic of heaven. Oh yes, there is such a thing as heavenly arithmetic. Here is the angel who does the sums. He is God's celestial calculator and he is called the "wonderful numberer" the "Palmoni" in the Hebrew. You will carefully notice that he numbers secrets. That is what he handles. That is what he traffics in. He traffics in secrets.
Can I learn what these secrets are? Yes I can! And that is what this Bible is. This Bible is a Book of secrets. That is what it is. In Psalm 25, the Lord has something to tell us about secrets. "The secret of the Lord is with them that fear Him; and He will shew them His covenant" (Psalm 25:14). So these secret things are in this Book. If I can study this Book alright I will find out the key to the numbers of this Book and I will be finding the key to God's secret chamber. I tell you, when you get a glimpse and grasp of this key this Book will become a new Book. It will become a living Book. It will become a mysterious Book but its mysteries will be revealed to the one who gets this key."
For more on this fascinating topic, please refer to my article "His Sacred Secrets Revealed to Modern-Day Disciples" (available upon request) in which it is demonstrated, I believe conclusively, that the Greek word "musterion", typically translated as "mystery", actually means "sacred secret". Those who receive the key will be privy to these sacred secrets in the end-times- Praise God!
From- http://www.midnightinamerica.net/docs/lit/a5l/a5l-sea.htm
"Daniel was a man of immense spiritual depth. He extolled God in a way that reflected his deep convictions. So devoted was he that, by comparison, many Christians today would find it hard to utter similarly sincere expressions from their innermost being (Daniel 9:4).
Daniel knew His God! He trusted Him (Daniel 6:23). He was devoted to Him (vs 4,10). Because of his awe for God, an angel appeared to him and entrusted him with secrets which no other mortal was privy to. They were to be hidden from all until the time of the end, and even then God says He will reveal them only to a select few (Dan 12:9-10). Those few are the ones who stand in awe of their Maker.
In his prophetic book are some remarkable revelations given him because of his holy devotion to his God. One particular aspect of the nature of God has been concealed in the pages of Daniel's writings until these last days. Although it has been there all along, it has been hidden from most. It is found in Daniel 8 verse 13.
Belief is tied in completely with willingness to obey, and obedience in the spirit is predicated upon humility. So, you can see why Daniel was privy to some wonderful 'secrets' from God. Things which no other mortals were chosen to receive. The secret things belong to the Lord our God, but those things which are revealed belong to us and to our children forever, that we may do all the works of this law (Deut 29:29). Obedience from the heart separates the true from the false."
An in-depth review of the book "Palmoni, or The Numerals of Scripture" by M. Mahan has been posted by Ella Rose Mast. Following are some of her comments but, first, a quote from the book itself:
"He created Wisdom, and saw her, and numbered her, and poured her upon all His works. Why else is, He styled PALMONI (Dav. Viii, 13), which is rendered in the margin of our English Bibles, The Numberer of Secrets, or the Wonderful Numberer!"
Continuing now with the Mast comments in her review of the Mahan book:
"Our author calls his work a 'free inquiry', or trying to find a connection between the application of Mystic numbers as a key to Sacred dates."
"Through His Prophets, then, YAHWEH alludes to chronological time cycles which are calculated in hours, days, weeks, months and years, in order that the wise among His people may acquire an understanding of the specific timing governing the outworking of the Divine plan and purpose in relation to the past, present, and coming events."
"Daniel had this vision while in captivity in old Babylon while as a young man. As Daniel wondered and pondered about this vision. And then he was told that this vision was for the time of the end. And YAHWEH told His Angels to make it plain to Daniel—this meaning of his vision." (Daniel 8:19)
"We thus concur that Palmoni is the Great Numberer, and when we have a better knowledge of the effect of the numbers, in our understanding of the scriptures we find ourselves more enlightened."
I was wondering if Freemasons might have a lot to say about Palmoni, since they are so deeply into numbers and secrets. But, in the published literature I found very little. There is a Scottish Rite lodge in New York state, however, named "Palmoni Lodge". In the following article-
– the writer, a 32nd degree Mason, states: "so while there appears to be superficially no Masonic connection with Palmoni, our Brothers of 1867 were no doubt very familiar with Palmoni and knew and understood the deeper meaning"
So, if the Masons are into the "Secrets" provided by "The Wonderful Numberer" they are certainly not publicizing it! Here is further confirmation, though, of Palmoni's great importance.
"Daniel was 'in the Spirit' and heard 'that certain Saint' who had answers, speak forth from that divine knowledge. It is evident that God puts much emphasis on numbers and counting."
Indeed He does! We must all grasp that the Holy Bible has multiple layers and a richness far surpassing any other book, for it is His Word and His alone!
Who Exactly Is This "Certain Saint"?:
To address this question, let's go back to the commentary by Ella Rose Mast on the classic book "Palmoni, or The Numerals of Scripture" by M. Mahan. Here are some additional comments:
"The numerical value of the word Palmoni has a numbered value of 80-30-40-6-50 and 10, or 216 which is the three times, three times, three multiplied by eight, a most significant combination. Thus in our English Bible translation we read that Certain Saint, but in the margin we see him listed as the Numberer of Secrets, or the Wonderful Numberer, as if Palmoni were a compound in which is retained the name of Wonderful, a name of Christ as well as Couselor (Daniel 9:13). Thus we can see the our author and we also repeat that God is a wonderful numberer. And the sacred Chronology is full of symmetry beauty, and significance even in its numerals."
According to http://www.palmoni.net/gematria.htm
Palmoni is a Messianic figure; here is a quote:
"In Daniel 8:13, Messiah appears as a Christophany called Palmoni, a name some Bibles annotate as 'numberer of secrets' or 'wonderful numberer,' (since that is what Palmoni means in Hebrew). The Hebrew letters for Palmoni (yod, nun, vav, mem, lamed, peh) have a gematria of 216, a cube (6³). The Concordant Version renders this text: 'Now I am hearing one saint speaking. And saying is one saint to so-and-so, the Speaking One…' We know from John's gospel that the Word, or the Logos (Greek), is the One who was in the beginning who made all things (John 1:1-4,14). Very God, He was responsible for bringing every physical thing into existence. He was our very Creator, who also gave Himself as a living sacrifice to bring us to Himself! (John 3:16.) Called the Word of God, He was the Speaking One of Daniel 8:13. The words 'so-and-so' are totally inadequate to express what the Hebrew, Palmoni, was meant to convey. This conveys one of the most fascinating of all biblical facts – God's incredible ingenuity, His vast mathematical expertise which He demonstrates for us in His preserved Word"
"In Daniel 8, Verse 13 the word "saint" is supplied. 'Certain' is a combination of two Hebrew words. The first is either pali or pala. The second word is mena. Each are applied in Scripture to the Lord.
|pali ("Secret")
"And the angel of the Lord [Jesus] said unto him, Why askest thou thus my name, seeing it is secret?" Judges 13:18. pala ("Wonderful")
"And his [Jesus'] name shall be called Wonderful." Isaiah 9:6.
|mena ("Numberer")
"Mene; God hath numbered thy kingdom." Daniel 5:26.
"The margin says, "Heb. Palmoni, the numberer of secrets, or, the wonderful numberer." This is undoubtedly a reference to Jesus. Therefore, the question asked in Daniel 8:13 is addressed to Jesus, and Jesus is the one who gives the answer in Daniel 8:14. 'How long shall be the vision concerning the daily sacrifice, and the transgression of desolation, to give both the sanctuary and the host to be trodden under foot?' The question, 'How long,' is actually, 'Until when . . . ?' This question, asked by a heavenly being, shows the intensity of the interest expressed by all heaven in the success of Christ's work for man. Angels themselves could not help but wonder how long the little horn would be permitted to suppress the truth about the mediatorial work of Jesus."
"The number 216 is the perimeter value of the 73rd triangle whose area is 2701, the gematria of the first verse of the Bible."
"In the Authorised King James Bible with margin notes, there is a marker against 'that certain saint'. The margin note reads: Palmoni, or, the numberer of secrets, or, the wonderful numberer. The word 'Palmoni' is the transliteration of a mysterious Hebrew word that cannot be translated. This word is a strange amalgamation of two other Hebrew words meaning 'wonderful' and 'to number or count'. JESUS CHRIST is that certain saint PALMONI, the WONDERFUL NUMBERER.
The English gematria* of PALMONI is 70 + 1 + 30 + 40 + 60 + 50 + 9 = 260
At a glance we can see immediately that this figure 260 can be expressed as 10 x 26. Gematria is based on the assignment of numbers to the letters of the alphabet and in our numbering system we have 10 digits (0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9) and 26 letters in the alphabet. How marvelous it is that the gematria of PALMONI expresses the fundamental concept of gematria and that the word means WONDERFUL NUMBERER."
*My Note- this is not the "A = 1 . . . Z = 26" style of English Gematria utilized by many authors
"The number 216 is very important in sacred texts as it is the Hebrew gematria for Palmoni, 'the numberer of secrets' and 'the wonderful numberer'"
Interesting that 216, as 6 x 6 x 6, has often been considered as a potential "anti-christ number". Certainly, it might well be, but after all satan is the ultimate copycat! It is obvious that the number 216, for Palmoni who is Jesus Christ, is a God number first and foremost! Praise God!
"As John wrote in Revelation 19:10, Jesus continually leaves His seal of ownership upon what He gives His servants. The prophetic gifts are always at work where He is. Such 'secrets', however, are only privy to a few who are open – like always, only to those who believe (as in Mark 16:17). They are hidden from the majority. Without another witness to coorborate our own, God provides revelations within dreams and visions to substantiate the accuracy of what was written."
Now, I believe the last sentence to be entirely true. I absolutely believe that the Gifts of the Spirit, including prophecy, are alive and well in these end-times, as I have personal experience in this area and we know also from scripture (such as Joel 2:28).
I will close here, but please look forward to an update to this article as God wills.
With Love in Christ,

Asian Roaming Charges May Be Halved
Published on: 4th Oct 2008
Note -- this news article is more than a year old.
International roaming charges may be reduced by up to half throughout the Asian region if a proposal from Malaysia's Communications Minister Datuk Shaziman Abu Mansor is accepted by the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN).
"We plan to reduce the roaming charges with Singapore first. In fact, I told the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) two weeks ago to proceed with this," he told local newspaper, The Star.
Shaziman said his ASEAN counterparts had also agreed to this during the 8th Asean Telecommunications and Information Technology Ministers meeting held in August.
He added that the move would particularly benefit the many thousands of Malaysians who commute across the border to work in Singapore each day. The regulators in both countries are currently working on a plan to lower the roaming rates across the border.
"If you ask me, anyone making a call from [Malaysia] to Singapore should be charged a local rate. But let the MCMC and the telcos come up with a structure that is acceptable," he said.
ASEAN is a geo-political and economic organization of 10 countries located in Southeast Asia, comprising of Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam.

I try here at this little blog to share thoughts on simplicity and frugality. I hope that what I share here ends up showing the fabulous not as blatantly but that it appears in the details. Maybe? I hope so. My family has a lot going on between home remodeling, jobs, and busy schedules. But we always have time to have family fun that is uncomplicated and frugal.
My daughter and I have a weekly date night. One night a week, she and I head out to have our time together with no boys allowed. It almost always involves ice cream. To celebrate our return back home to Florida, our date night a couple weeks ago not only involved a trip for ice cream, but we went to the beach together too.
Sitting in the sand eating ice cream with the most beautiful, creative, curious little girl while watching the sunset behind us on the Atlantic Shore is a sure way to feel blessed and lucky.
There were sticky sticky ice cream hands
Our requisite photo of ourselves
After ice cream, we went for a stroll. There was no movie-like holding hands and calmly walking while philosophizing about life. There was racing into the waves and having them splash us while pretending we didn't want to get wet.
I was afraid she wasn't having as good of a time as I was while I walked along, waves lapping at my feet, watching my daughter run through the waves while giggling with delight and seeming to grow up before my eyes. I think my fear was unfounded.
For $4.79 for 2 ice creams and a 3 minute drive to the beach, I have an evening to remember forever. It doesn't get much more simple, frugal, or fabulous than that.

Duplo Offers Patented Image-shift Detection System
Many of the technologies I'll be focusing on in this blog will be brand new, but there are some technologies, like this week's pick, that are worthy of mention even though they've been around a while.
This week's technology is something that I learned about when I was researching an article about high-tech folding machines, called Folders: Wired for Success.
The problem of image shifting
Unlike a traditional offset printing press, digital toner presses do not have a gripper shaft. As many of us know, the gripper shaft control on sheetfed offset printing machines ensures that the printed sheets are transferred precisely and reliably from one cylinder to another. Digital toner presses rely on a transfer belt for registration due to their small available printing space and other mechanics that exclude the use of a gripper shaft. Other than the transfer belt and friction drive rollers, there is nothing that ensures the sheet won't move vertically or horizontally during the printing process. This movement is called image shifting, and it can be a real challenge. For example:
If the operator programs a guillotine to cut a 12×18-inch sheet into 2×3-inch business cards, he'll get exactly what he programmed the machine to do. However, if there is a 3mm vertical image shift problem on some of the sheets from the press, the paper cutter cannot compensate for this error as it doesn't have a visual system to detect the mistake.
Duplo's solution to this problem was to develop and patent an image-shift detecting system. First implemented in 2000 on its DC-545 finishing machine, the main function of the image-shift detection is to compare the printed position of the input sheet to the master sheet (usually the first sheet of the stack) that is read by a CCD scanner. The scanner also conveniently serves as a barcode reader to recall job memory settings. Now, if you're like me and you don't know what "CCD" means, it is a Charge-coupled Device and converts images into high-quality digital data signals.

Vinyl Siding
I had a contractor show me an example of Alside Vinyl... but I would like to hear from someone first hand what they think of it & is it really worth the money. Any comments or suggestions would be appreaciated. Thanks, Cmondayblues
I can only give a few general 'pointers'.
Be sure the Contractor is insured and bonded. The material should be AT LEAST .044ml in thickness if it's a good quality price he's charging. Be sure you buy some extra siding for who-knows-what reason down the road. The same goes for some J-channel, corner trim, soffit material, and any other 'item' he's using in the install that MAY go out of 'style'. (See what I mean?) And get 2 more estimates in WRITING, then compare, then start asking questions. If you have a neighbor that's satisfied w/their Installer, consider them.
Perhaps others can help too. My best to ya and hope this helps.
Jay J -Moderator
PS: Now's the time to at least put in 'blocks' for additional hose bibs and electrical outlets. You can always punch the blocks (for either or) later on. These items (in the Vinyl Siding World) are called Accessories ...
Don't get me wrong, Alside is good, there is many good vinyl products out there, but after installing for over 30 years I find
Wolverine to give me the best job.

The fired Jacksonville city manager may not have far to go to find a new job. One local business is offering him a job.
A sign in front of Leonard Buildings and Truck Accessories on Highway 17 says "Hey Kristoff Bauer I'll hire u".
Bauer was fired two weeks ago as Jacksonville's city manager.
Store manager Jerry Potter says "I just saw T.V. and everyone patted him on the back. The guy is straight up, seems like it's between people who didn't get their way."
When told about the sign, Bauer said "That's pretty neat."

Hidden in Paris comes out in Spanish language, and I just opened a box full of sample paperbacks. The book looks great! I love how each country has its own take on the title and the cover. The Spanish title translates as 'a room in paris' and the covers shows the window of the original cover (including the geraniums) but from the inside, and looking out to a beautiful parisian Haussmanian building.
Because it was published by Penguin Random House Grupo, the novel will be available in the Spanish language in: drumroll: España, Argentina, Chile, Colombia, México, Uruguay, Perú, Portugal, and Estados Unidos (never heard of that last one). And I'm pretty amazed that Aurora Echevarría Perez translated it to Spanish, she who translated Donna Tart's Goldfinch and Alice Munro. I'm afraid to ask: did she make Una Habitación en París much better than the original? I'll do a giveaway soon. My spanish is oxidado but one of you will be able to tell me. Or maybe DON'T.
Okay, enough with the insufferable boast. Thank you Penguin Random House Grupo for having faith in my book, and thank you to my agent Renata for everything!

Best Seller, Corine Gantz Hidden in Paris, divorce, friendship, love, romance in Spanish language, Una Habitación en París
I don't know what did it for me. Enchanted April? Or was it Under the Tuscan Sun ? (I think both those film/books were inspirations for Hidden in Paris) Or does it have something to do with that dangerous Italian boy I dated for three years? The point is, I've always wanted to learn to speak Italian. Once a year I pick up a set of audio tapes at the library and work at feverishly for a few weeks. And then life gets in the way.
It's a fantasy that many share to be able to speak Italian, with Italians, in Italy. To me it would not hurt if this happened in April and in Tuscany. (George Clooney was part of my fantasy but now that he's married I lost interest.) So imagine my dismay when after all those years, when I am only able to butcher a few words, my characters are overnight fluent in Italian!
2015 is when the good news of 2014 come to life. I'm so excited that Hidden in Paris will be available in the Italian language. My publisher Sperling Kupfer has just made the announcement so I guess it's official. RICOMINCIARE A PARIGI is real :)
And look at this gorgeous cover!
The ebook is available just in time for San Valentino. So if you want to spend Valentines Day in Paris, and in Italian, here is your chance :) The paperback is now available as of March 3rd.
Note: this is fun, now you can read this post in Italian here!

I've been meaning to do this for a long time, so here it is, Ta-dah! My list of Parisian eating places.
(rooftop restaurant above the Printempts)
This is a mis-mosh (spelling?) of restaurants. Some are expensive, some are affordable, some are 'guingettes' where people sing French songs, or cafés with fabulous terraces, or rooftop bistros with sweeping Paris views. Some are all about the food, others are about the ambiance. Most have both. I've thrown in some smackalicious pastry shops for good measure because you never know when you might find yourself with an emergency need for 'chouquettes'.
(La Chambre aux Oiseaux restaurants)
The list is by 'quartier' or 'arrondissments' of Paris. Here is the google map where I place the restaurants in the correct streets so that you can organize your foodie moments around day trips and points of interest.
(Petit Palais restaurant)
Reservations to Paris restaurants are a very good idea. I provided the website or a link to a review so that you could find the hours of operation. Keep in mind that many Parisian restaurants are closed on arbitrary days. Some of the best ones close on Saturday AND Sunday which blows the mind when you think about it. In the summer some are closed for an entire month. So call early.
(restautant verjus)
If you want to add to the list or disagree with my choice send me an email or comment below because things change and I want to keep this up to date as much as possible. (The images are taken from the restaurants website unless indicated.)

Idyllic garden, green house. Maybe there is a more idyllic setting to eat in Paris but I haven't found it. (it might only be open in warm months so make sure to check.)

One of those restaurants I have never experienced but badly want to. I guess I just stop at the bakery and by the time I'm through with it, food is no longer on my mind (that feeling rarely lasts).

I'm just realizing that I have no addresses for some arrondissements. So just assume that in those areas of Paris 'on ne mange pas'. Or better yet, I welcome your suggestions.
This post was brought to you by Anthem Blue cross and the hours and days I spent on the phone, on hold, or being disconnected as I was attempting to sort out my health insurance claims. Collecting this list seemed a productive alternative to smashing my head against my desk.

That moment when you see a deceptively simple painting of flowers, fall in love, yap: 'I can SO do this!' for the world to hear, take out your crumbling acrylic paint tubes from ten years ago (date of your last delusion), your brushes with receding hairlines, dust up a bona fide blank canvas (see aforementioned delusion) and after 4 hours find out that: no you cannot.
Here is the dream, Carrie Schmitt. I'll leave it to the pros from now on.

Bob's Burgers Preview: 2011 Midseason Fox Animated Comedy
By Kelly West 6 years ago comments
Set to join Foxs lineup next year is their new animated comedy series Bobs Burgers. The series follows a family that runs a failing burger joint. Videos ahead!
Not slated to air until midseason 2011, Bobs Burgers features the voices of H. Jon Benjamin, John Roberts, Dan Mintz, Eugene Mirman and Kristen Schaal. From the description below (and the video clips) it appears as though a few of the female characters will be voiced by male actors, which I guess isnt so surprising, given that the voice of Bart in Foxs longrunning animated comedy The Simpsons is done by a woman (Nancy Cartwright). Below is Foxs description for Bobs Burgers.
BOBS BURGERS is a new animated series about a man, his family and a burger joint. A third-generation restaurateur, BOB BELCHER (H. Jon Benjamin, FAMILY GUY, Archer) runs Bobs Burgers with the help of his wife and their three kids. Bob has big ideas about burgers, condiments and sides, but only a few thoughts on customer service and business management. Despite his greasy counters, lousy location and occasionally spotty service, Bob is convinced his burgers speak for themselves.
