ALDS Preview: Twins vs. A's
The Twins owe a huge debt of gratitude to the Kansas City Royals. Thanks to Kansas City's season-ending sweep of the Tigers, Minnesota gets to open the playoffs at home against Oakland instead of traveling to face the New York Yankees.
Oakland is a good team, no question about it. The A's won 93 games and very much deserve to be in the postseason . But the Yankees certainly look like the class of baseball right now, so Twins fans will be happy to avoid seeing them in the first round.
Will they still be happy a week from now? Well, that's what we start finding out today. Let's see what we can learn ahead of time by breaking down the offense and defense for both Minnesota and Oakland.
For the offense we'll compare spots in the batting order from top to bottom. Obviously, we don't yet know exactly what lineups the teams are going to use, but we can get an idea based on the lineups they've been using this year. And even if the order isn't exactly right, the players in the lineup should mostly be the same.
Leadoff: Luis Castillo for the Twins vs. Jason Kendall for the A's. Castillo hit .296/.358/.370 this season, Kendall .295/.367/.342, so the leadoff hitters for these teams are pretty similar. Does either player have an advantage elsewhere? Well, Castillo is a better hitter against right-handers whereas Kendall was pretty even in the past, but much better against lefties this year. Both teams will likely use three righties and one lefty on the mound, but the lefty will go twice (if necessary) for each team, so it's probably negligible.
Both players have been slightly better since the All-Star break than they were over the course of the season, while Castillo has been better at home and Kendall has been better on the road. No matter how you slice it, the leadoff hitters for these teams are almost dead even.
No. 2: Nick Punto for the Twins vs. Mark Kotsay for the A's. Punto hit .290/.352/.373, Kotsay hit .275/.332/.386. Overall, Punto's been the better offensive player this season. However, after hitting surprisingly well much of the season, Punto struggled terribly with a .560 OPS in September. Kotsay, meanwhile, has been very consistent over the final three months of the season. Anything can happen over five games, but it seems more likely that Punto will struggle than not.
No. 3: Joe Mauer for the Twins vs. Milton Bradley for the A's. Mauer has a significant edge, hitting .347/.429/.507 while Bradley hit .276/.370/.447. The gap may not be quite as big as it appears, however, as Mauer tailed off in the second half of the season, posting an .876 OPS since the All-Star break. During that same time, Bradley had an .860 OPS.
That's not to say that Bradley's a good bet to provide the same amount of offense as Mauer during the series, but you shouldn't forget that Bradley's been a good hitter during various parts of his career and it's entirely possible that Mauer was a bit over his head the first half of the season. Expect Mauer to be an advantage for the Twins, but not necessarily a huge one.
No. 4: Michael Cuddyer for the Twins vs. Frank Thomas for the A's. This is the first spot in the order that clearly favors the A's. Cuddyer hit a very respectable .284/.362/.504 for the Twins, but Thomas carries the A's with a .270/.381/.545 line. And Thomas is even better when you consider that he posted an awful .669 OPS in April and has had an OPS above .930 in every month since then.
No. 5: Justin Morneau for the Twins vs. Jay Payton for the A's. The advantage swings back to the Twins in a huge way here as Morneau hit .321/.375/.559, while Payton was at .295/.325/.418. Morneau has been pretty consistent throughout the season while Payton was quite a bit better in the second half than the first, but no matter how you slice it, the Twins get much more offense from this spot in the lineup than the A's.
No. 6: Torii Hunter for the Twins vs. Eric Chavez for the A's. Hunter hit .278/.336/.490 while Chavez hit .241/.351/.435. They get their value in vastly different ways, but the overall value comes out pretty close to even for these two. Hunter probably had slightly better production over the course of the season, and he improved in the second half while Chavez struggled mightily during the middle of the year, when he played hurt, but there's not much to distinguish between the two right now.
No. 7: Rondell White for the Twins vs. Nick Swisher for the A's. At first glance, this would seem like a second clear victory for the A's. White managed to hit just .246/.276/.365 while Swisher posted a .254/.372/.493 line. If you look closer, however, you'll see that White was hurt early in the season. He was a different hitter after he got healthy, and he had an impressive .892 OPS after the All-Star break. So instead of a clear victory for the A's, you might be looking at a push or even a small win for the Twins.
No. 8: Jason Tyner for the Twins vs. Marco Scutaro for the A's. Tyner hit .312/.345/.353 while Scutaro was at .266/.350/.397. And not only do the A's have the obvious advantage because their hitter was better over the course of the season, they also have the hitter who's going into the playoffs on a hot streak. While Tyner was pretty steady from month to month, Scutaro posted a .601 OPS before the All-Star break and an .866 OPS after it. He's not an .866 OPS player, but the hot second half combined with the better overall numbers make this spot a clear win for the A's.
No. 9: Jason Bartlett for the Twins vs. Mark Ellis for the A's. Probably a better choice to hit at the top of the order than either Castillo or Punto, Bartlett hit .309/.367/.393 while Ellis struggled to a .249/.319/.385 line. The only concern for the Twins is that Bartlett really tailed off at the end of the season, posting a .526 OPS in September. Ellis, meanwhile, improved from a .599 OPS before the All-Star break to a .787 OPS after it. Despite those trends, Bartlett is probably a better bet on offense than Ellis.
Overall: So what do all those individual comparisons add up to? Well, the two teams scored close to the same number of runs over the course of the season, ranking eighth and ninth, respectively, in the AL. The Twins (801 runs) averaged nearly two-tenths of a run more per game than the A's (771). While the Twins have more impressive-looking hitters in Mauer, Morneau, Cuddyer and Hunter, the A's may actually have the better offense. Their scoring was depressed more by their home park and they also scored more over the second half of the season than the Twins.
In reality, it's probably too close too call one way or the other.
Pitching and Defense
The majority of defense is pitching, but that doesn't mean there's no value in what we actually think of as defense. For the purposes of these two teams, though, it's easier to just focus on the pitching because the defenses are fairly even. So, let's get right to comparing the starting pitchers and the bullpens.
Game 1 starters: Minnesota's Johan Santana vs. Oakland's Barry Zito. Santana was the best pitcher in baseball this year, just as he was last year and the year before that. He was 19-6 with a 2.77 ERA, 1.00 WHIP and 245/47 K/BB ratio in 233.2 innings this year, and 55-19 with a 2.75 ERA, 0.96 WHIP and 748/146 K/BB ratio in 693.1 innings over the past three seasons. Zito's solid (16-10, 3.83 ERA, 1.40 WHIP, 151/99 K/BB ratio, 221 innings), but he can't hold a candle to Santana.
Game 2 starters: Minnesota's Boof Bonser vs. Oakland's Esteban Loaiza. Bonser (7-6, 4.22 ERA, 1.28 WHIP, 84/24 K/BB, 100.1 innings) and Loaiza (11-9, 4.89 ERA, 1.42 WHIP, 97/40 K/BB, 154.2 innings) are both unlikely Game 2 starters. Bonser because he was demoted to the minor leagues for a month in the middle of the season, Loaiza because he simply wasn't very good this season.
After coming back from the minors, Bonser finished the season on a high note, posting a 2.63 ERA in 37.2 innings over his final six starts, striking out 30 and walking seven batters during that stretch. If he can pitch even close to that well Wednesday, he'll have nearly as big an advantage over Loaiza as Santana has over Zito. Loaiza had just one good month all season, as he posted a 1.48 ERA in August and an ERA of at least 4.90 in every other month.
Game 3 starters: This is where things get dicey. Both teams have a pitcher recovering from injury who could pitch Game 3, Game 4 or not at all. Let's be optimistic and say Minnesota's Brad Radke and Oakland's Rich Harden both go Friday. If they're both healthy, Harden's a better pitcher than Radke. But they're both not healthy, at least not completely.
Radke was 12-9 with a 4.46 ERA when he shut things down in late August. He returned in time to make one start before the playoffs, allowing one unearned run in five innings against the Royals. He's reported no problems since then, so he should be good to go. How good he'll be when he goes is the question, and one solid start against Kansas City doesn't really answer it.
Harden made five starts in April, missed all of May, made one start in June and then didn't pitch again until September. He was 3-0 with a 3.86 ERA after his June appearance. He came back in time for three rehab appearances, allowing one run in three innings against Cleveland and then pitching five scoreless innings against Seattle in his first two starts. He was unable to make further improvement in the third start, however, allowing six runs in 3.2 innings against the Angels. He has the potential to be dominant and the possibility of being useless.
Game 4 starters: Minnesota's Carlos Silva vs. Oakland's Dan Haren. After a solid first four seasons in the majors, Silva really struggled this year, going 11-15 with a 5.94 ERA. He only got the nod for Game 4 because he pitched well in his final start (one run in 5.1 innings against the White Sox), while Matt Garza struggled in his.
Haren had a nice season, going 14-13 with a 4.12 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 176/45 K/BB ratio in 223 innings. However, he struggled quite a bit down the stretch, and his ERA ballooned from 3.52 before the All-Star break to 4.91 after it. If he pitches the way he did in September (5.80 ERA), then he's not any better than Silva.
Bullpen: The A's have a very good bullpen this year, ranking third in the AL with a 3.60 ERA from their relievers. Closer Huston Street blew 11 saves this year, but he also posted a 3.31 ERA and 1.09 WHIP with 67 strikeouts and 13 walks in 70.2 innings. The top two setup men are Justin Duchscherer (2.91 ERA, 1.10 WHIP, 51 strikeouts and nine walks in 55.2 innings) and Kiko Calero (3.41 ERA, 1.28 WHIP, 67 strikeouts and 24 walks in 58 innings). Joe Kennedy (2.31 ERA, 1.34 WHIP, 29/13 K/BB in 35 innings as a reliever) and Ron Flores (3.34 ERA, 1.28 WHIP, 20/10 K/BB in 29.2 innings) will also likely be on the playoff roster.
As good as that group of relievers for the A's is, though, the Twins have the best and deepest bullpen in baseball. They led the majors with a 2.91 ERA from their relievers, and what makes them so scary for the playoffs is that their top four relievers are all excellent. Closer Joe Nathan led the way with a 7-0 record, 36 saves, a 1.58 ERA, 0.79 WHIP, 95 strikeouts and 16 walks in 68.1 innings. He may be the most impressive reliever in baseball right now.
His top setup man is Juan Rincon, who posted a 2.91 ERA, 1.35 WHIP, 65 strikeouts and 24 walks in 74.1 innings. Pat Neshek came up from Triple-A during the season and posted a 2.19 ERA, 0.78 WHIP, 53 strikeouts and six walks in 37 innings (and you should watch the Twins games just to see his delivery) and Dennys Reyes had a ridiculous 0.89 ERA with a 0.99 WHIP, 49 strikeouts and 15 walks in 50.2 innings.
With that quartet of relievers, the Twins only need to get five or six decent innings out of their starting pitcher before they turn things over to a bullpen that doesn't allow many runs, or even baserunners. The A's don't have quite as many good relievers, and their top relievers aren't as good as Minnesota's top relievers.
Overall: The Twins had a slight advantage in ERA during the regular season, posting a 3.95 team ERA to rank second in the AL while Oakland was fourth with a 4.21 team ERA. But Minnesota's advantage will grow during the playoffs as they make use of off days. Whereas their top pitchers (Santana, Francisco Liriano and the bullpen quartet) accounted for just 40.6 percent of Minnesota's innings pitched during the regular season, they could provide as much as 60 percent of the innings in a five-game series.
If the A's want to win, their best chance is to take games two, three and four. Not only can Santana pitch twice this series, but both of his starts would be at home, where he's undefeated since Aug. 1, 2005. In his last 22 starts at home, he's 15-0 with a 1.96 ERA in 156 innings. Because of that advantage, the Twins are my pick to win, in five games.

You hear about those other people who say to those with acne that it isn't a big deal, or its just pimples or it go away. Or the stop worrying about it so much. Well i believe its easy to say this when you never had to go through it. And no 1 or 2 small pimples don't count. I'm talking about moderate to severe acne. Well im not sure if i should mention severe b/c even then they would notice it and some of them would say yeah you should go to the dermatologist. However, do you think those type of people could actually live their lives the way they do normally if they have moderate or severe acne? I really hate the fact that ppl say oh its just pimples etc like its not a big deal. I feel like people don't understand what ppl with acne actually go through. Such as when i see someone with lot of acne i know what they are going through. Does anyone agree people who don't go through acne really are naive in a way? I honestly believe any one of these ppl who say stuff like oh just pimples dont worry about it or it go away... I don't believe they would go through life like its nothing and they would be very bothered by it psychologically as well like us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kamikaze Koopa
From the Super Mario Wiki
Jump to: navigation, search
A Kamikaze Koopa[1] is a type of Koopa Troopa found only in Super Mario World. It is created when a yellow Beach Koopa climbs into an empty Koopa Shell of any color, including its own after being ejected from it. It becomes invincible with its shell flashing rainbow colors, thus becoming a Kamikaze Koopa. After its transformation, the Kamikaze Koopa attempts to hit Mario or Luigi by spinning around in its shell and dashing towards them. It becomes impossible to separate the Beach Koopa from the shell.
Jumping on a Kamikaze Koopa causes the Mario Bros. to bounce upwards, but does not damage the shell. They can only be defeated with a Yoshi, a Spin Jump or a Star. If any Yoshi eats one, it obtains all three shell abilities (causing small earthquakes, flying, and spitting out fire) as long as the shell remains in its mouth.
After beating the Special Zone (or completing all 96 exits in the Game Boy Advance version), all Koopa Troopa and Paratroopa shells become Mario masks. Kamikaze Koopas thus become spinning, flashing Mario masks.

Hi Kiwi Cruiser, welcome to Cruise-Chat. Congratulations on your upcoming cruise. If you'll look a little further down the main page, you will see our Roll Call Section. If your cruise is there, you can add your names by hitting the reply tab. If your cruise isn't there, click on the reply tab and add it. One of our moderators updates the list periodically. We haven't sailed on the Europa but have been on the Magica and Mediterranea. They were absolutely beautiful ships. The cabins were large and clean. The beds were very comfortable, and plenty of closet space. Costa is an Italian cruise line and offers a different product from the mainstream lines of HAL, NCL, RCL, Princess, Carnival, etc. If you've never cruised before, you won't have anything to compare it to. Costa is a very family oriented cruise line. The food is great, the activities on board are loads of fun, the staff is fun. You might have trouble finding English speaking crew members, but they all try, and a smile goes a long way. Make sure you dress for Toga night, it's usually the last night of the cruise. It's fun and take your camera to the dining room. We've sailed Costa 4 times and would not hesitate to sail on them again. Best wishes for a fantastic cruise, and once again, welcome aboard. If you'd like to see pictures of the Mediterranea,
are some of my pictures.

What weight can be given to batted ball data? How much can we use it to refine our knowledge of pitcher skills?
This question really implicates two related subquestions. First, how reliable is the underlying raw data? In other words, how accurate are scorers' codings of batted balls? Second, if we had perfect information about batted ball type (that is to say entirely consistent), which types can be consistently induced (or avoided) and which ones are the result of contingent (or luck) based factors?
On the first question, most agree batted ball coding is not, at the moment, particularly accurate or precise. Even Sportsvision's hitF/X, which promises further accuracy, will not be able to measure ball spin, which will limit its effectiveness. But what about the second question?
Matthew Carruth argues that batted ball types (but particularly line drives) are repeatable skills.
Others, like Tom M. Tango, have shown that batted ball data can offer only marginal gains.
Beyond performing the rote mechanics of statistics, what does it mean to think statistically?
If all this is too heavy for you, Rogue's Baseball Index offers baseball definitions of film terms.

Have a Tax Question? Ask a Tax Expert
Welcome to Just Answer. I am here to help you resolve your tax and finance concerns. Please feel free to ask anytime you need extra help.
Losses can only be claimed if they were attributed to previously taxed income. Accordingly, there is no loss here since you were never taxed on this. The same holds true for the legal fees. Sorry to have to give you bad news but it is usually better to know the reality than to live in a misunderstanding.
Hello and thank you for your question.
It is too early to determine and you may very well have a loss. It sounds like you're going to have to go back to court. If you get a judgement, you may find that the aunts owe you a debt that they may not be able to pay (bad debt equates to a loss for you / potential forgiveness of debt income to the aunts). However, was this not addressed initially, as you seem to have already been to court? Did title insurance apply?
BotXXXXX XXXXXne, if you inherit a house you'll have a tax basis in that house equal to its fair market value on the date of the estate generally, and if you lose that house and have a loss that is not compensated for by insurance or otherwise, you'll have a deductible loss (IRC, aka internal revenue code section, 165). An inherited house is generally an investment property until it is sold, used for personal reasons, turned into a rental, etc. Furthermore, legal fees spent on defending/acquiring investment property are deductible generally. See here:
(a) General rule There shall be allowed as a deduction any loss sustained during the taxable year and not compensated for by insurance or otherwise.
(c) Limitation on losses of individuals In the case of an individual, the deduction under subsection (a) shall be limited to-
(1) losses incurred in a trade or business;
(2) losses incurred in any transaction entered into for profit, though not connected with a trade or business; and
(3) except as provided in subsection (h), losses of property not connected with a trade or business or a transaction entered into for profit, if such losses arise from fire, storm, shipwreck, or other casualty, or from theft.
See also IRC 1014:
How Current is This?
(a) In general Except as otherwise provided in this section, the basis of property in the hands of a person acquiring the property from a decedent or to whom the property passed from a decedent shall, if not sold, exchanged, or otherwise disposed of before the decedent's death by such person, be-
(1) the fair market value of the property at the date of the decedent's death,
I hope this is helpful. Sorry to the above expert, but I don't agree. You, without a doubt, need someone that can get at your personal facts and circumstances, such as the court records etc. Simply telling you that you do not have a deductible loss or deductible legal fees is not appropriate. Thank you for your question!
This is a situation where, in practice, I would ask for permission to speak directly to your attorney and obtain any official court records. I would look to determine the true and rightful owner of the home and investments at the time of the estate and proceed accordingly.
Your attorney's fees in this case should be deductible under IRC 212:
In the case of an individual, there shall be allowed as a deduction all the ordinary and necessary expenses paid or incurred during the taxable year-
(1) for the production or collection of income;
(2) for the management, conservation, or maintenance of property held for the production of income; or
(3) in connection with the determination, collection, or refund of any tax.
As far as your theft loss goes, IRC 165 above would apply.
Now for the tricky part. NOL (net operating losses) apply to theft and casualty losses. Let's start with an IRS pub, here (bolding mine):
"Net operating loss (NOL). If your casualty or theft loss deduction causes your deductions for the year to be more than your income for the year, you may have an NOL. You can use an NOL to lower your tax in an earlier year, allowing you to get a refund for tax you have already paid. Or, you can use it to lower your tax in a later year. You do not have to be in business to have an NOL from a casualty or theft loss. For more information, see Publication 536, Net Operating Losses (NOLs) for Individuals, Estates, and Trusts."
The tax code behind the above can be found here, in IRC 172:
"(ii) Eligible loss For purposes of clause (i), the term "eligible loss" means- (I) in the case of an individual, losses of property arising from fire, storm, shipwreck, or other casualty, or from theft,"
Finally, if you can get a 1099C in your aunts' hands, that might be good. 1099C is for forgiveness of debt (ie... you don't sue for the house, but if you at least recognize a debt owed to you by your aunts, you can forgive that debt, solidifying a deductible bad debt loss for you and forgiveness of debt income to your aunts). If you don't claim this as a theft or other loss, the IRS could actually construe this as a gift too, in which case you would have to file a gift tax return (probably just a reportable, and not a taxable, gift, pending you specific facts and circumstances).
Does it seem like you have a deductible loss over JustAnswers? Absolutely. While I realize you have spent $ already, I can assure you, it is worth a little more at this point to have a quality tax professional assist you. Schedule an appointment and come with your code sections handy (IRC 212, IRC 165, IRC 1014, and IRC 172 all above).
I am very sorry for your loss... Hopefully you are are able to find some resolution.
Thank you again for your question too!
No problem here and thank you!
The fair value of the house at the time of the estate is used. The fair value becomes the beneficiary's new basis in the home for tax purposes (sale price - basis = [taxable] gain/loss, should the beneficiary later sell).
The tax value of the home and the fair value per tax documents probably are not accurate... The sale price of the home provides, assuming an arms' length transaction, the fair value of the home at the time it was sold, however, the determination still must be made at the time of the estate (ie... date of death). An appraisal is generally used at the time of the estate to help document that fair value.
I do sincerely XXXXX XXXXX the best here. I understand this is probably frustrating...

I get the music app notification in the notification bar at the top of the screen, and I can pull it down and hit the "x" on the far right to close it out. Furthermore, I can use either the app manager application that comes on the phone OR the Manage App settings option under settings, either one, to Force Close the music player. This does no good, as a few minutes later, the music player will come on again and start to randomly play music. I've had the phone for a long time, probably close to a year, I can't remember exactly how long, and haven't really ever had this problem. Is anyone else having similar problems and if so, was there anything special you did to make it stop? As far as I know, its not any particular app thats causing it, although I haven't completely deleted every app i have, i have systematically deleted the most recent apps (from when i first noticed the problem) and haven' found a solution. Thanks for any info.

To find this boomer, you really need to travel far in the National Park System.
That's because Boomer II is a patrol boat berthed at Bartlett Cove in Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve in Alaska. And she's got quite a history, according to Gus Martinez, the park's Bay District Ranger.
It turns out the boat came to the National Park Service in 1999 when the agency bought out a dungeness crab fishery company. While it sat idly by for several years, in 2006 the boat was modifed "with a push bar and tow bar/guides and launched to replace the Boomer I, an old NPS Boston Whaler," notes Ranger Martinez.
"The primary purpose of the vessel is to stand by for a response to oil spills at Bartlett Cove, to pull boom," he adds.
Today Boomer II is used not only for pulling boom when necessary, Ranger Martinez says, but for "doing patrols in Bartlett Cove, checking sports pots, quick response to Lower Bay Whale waters violations, and since she is a heavy metal boat she does great for shore landings."
"She has been used for oceanography trips, moving gear up the river, she was even used for transfer of our interpretive staff to a cruiseship once," the ranger said.
In other words, while Boomer II might not look like much, she's certainly useful on a number of fronts.

Here's a poem I wrote.
Hollywood got it wrong.
Desolate malls
Invaded by zombies
Seeking brains
Are not so terrifying
As those already filled
By the living dead—
Gaping holes
In their core,
They wander with
Endless appetites,
Steadily consuming the world.
Perfect suburban homes already carrying
An air of foreboding
Hanging over wedding albums
And children's toys;
Where chainsaws and baseball bats
Gather dust in the garage,
Impotent to protect anyone
From the quiet grinding horror.
Cubicle walls already stained
With blood
Spilled by workplace shooters
Who could no longer contain
The rage that comes
From seeing their own flesh
Hanging from their bones,
Overwhelming their noses
With the putrid stench
Of death.

SCOBA letter on IOCC 10th Anniversary
...I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you clothed me, I was sick and you visited me, I was in prison and you came to me (Matthew 25: 34-36).
To the Clergy and Laity of the Holy Orthodox Churches in America,
These words of Christ are found in the parable of the Last Judgment. The teaching is unmistakably clear. When we serve our brother and sister who are in need, we minister to Christ himself. Love expressed in service to the hungry and thirsty, the stranger and the naked, the sick and the imprisoned is the basic and most important "measure" of our faithfulness to the Gospel of Christ.
The creation of International Orthodox Christian Charities (IOCC) in March 1992 by the Standing Conference of Canonical Orthodox Bishops in the Americas (SCOBA) was an important milestone in our life and witness as Orthodox Christians in America, because it opened the possibility of reaching Orthodox Christians abroad. In IOCC we have a visible and tangible way to respond together - as a community of faith - to the teaching of Christ.
Indeed, we have responded together, as Orthodox Christians of America. Through the work of IOCC we have responded in regions and countries devastated by economic crisis and war. In Russia and Georgia, in Bosnia-Herzegovina and Serbia and Montenegro, in Romania, in Albania and the Middle East and Ethiopia, IOCC has served the poor and the sick, the internally displaced and the refugees.
Through IOCC we have begun to respond together to human need and suffering in the United States. In the aftermath of the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, IOCC assisted the Orthodox communities in the New York area to respond pastorally to the needs of suffering and traumatized people.
The month of March in the year 2002 marked the tenth anniversary of International Orthodox Christian Charities. We mark this anniversary with gratitude to God, and with our archpastoral blessings to all those who give their support to IOCC and to all those who labor on the IOCC staff and programs. We urge all Orthodox Christians in America to offer strong support to IOCC - through prayer and through gifts of money and other resources. In IOCC we, the bishops and clergy and laity of the Orthodox churches in America, have a common instrument to do the work of Christ's compassion.
We commend to the attention of all the Orthodox faithful and all Orthodox parishes the words of the Mission Statement of IOCC:
The Mission of IOCC is to respond to the call of our Lord Jesus Christ to Minister to those who are suffering and are in need throughout the world, sharing with them God's gifts of Food, Shelter, Economic Self-Sufficiency, and Hope.
We urge all in the Orthodox communities to see and understand the mission of IOCC as our common mission and commitment.
With Paternal Blessings and Love in Christ,
+Archbishop DEMETRIOS, Chairman
Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America
+Metropolitan THEODOSIUS
Orthodox Church in America
+Metropolitan PHILIP, Vice Chairman
Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese of North America

JERUSALEM (Sep. 23)
A series of amendments to Israel's income tax law to reduce such taxes by two to six per cent, principally in the medium and high earnings brackets, was approved today by Finance Minister Pinhas Sapir for action by Israel's Parliament.
The measure is expected to be ready for consideration when the Knesset resumes sessions next month. The tax cut proposals are in line with recommendations made by a special committee appointed last year.

Mighty Tasty Hot Cereal contains brown rice, corn, buckwheat, and sorghum. This gluten free cereal is a delightful way to get your energy level up and going and keep it there all day long.
This gluten free product was handled exclusively in our dedicated gluten free facility and tested for gluten free integrity in our quality control laboratory using an ELISA Gluten Assay test.
As a continued commitment to the quality of the products we make and sell, all of Bob's Red Mill products are certified kosher pareve or kosher dairy by Rabbi Avrohom Teichman of Kehilla Kosher, Igud HaKashrus of Los Angeles.
All Bob's Red Mill products are vegetarian. This product is also vegan, meaning it is made without the use of any animal products including eggs, dairy, and honey.
My health care plan offers a Wellness Card which can be used at Health Food Stores. Trying to use up My balance before the end of the year, I went to My source of all things healthy. They were out of Bob's Oatmeal. With winter blooming on the horizon I was intrigued by the Mighty Tasty Hot Cereal. Seriously good eats...sweet or savory.
Love this cereal. Plus I made the Bob-O-Meal Muffins in mini muffin pans and they made a wonderful cornbread recipe.
We love this hot cereal. We add either sweet things as if it were oatmeal or my favorites which are mushrooms onions and cheese, a very warming and satisfying dish.
I have been eating oatmeal for so long that I have been getting into a rut---and forgetting that there are other cooking cereals out there to try. In cooking this new cereal, It takes some time becoming familiar with how much water to add so the cereal turns out with the desirable consistency. This guesswork may hold a lot of people back from trying something new. For one serving, I used about 1/2 cup of cereal and about
1 -1/2 water. It turned out OK. I added sliced pear to it. This cereal reminds me of eating polenta---it has the flavor and texture of corn. It's a nice change from oatmeal.
I love Bob's oatmeal, but I wanted to mix my breakfast up a little. This cereal is perfect! It's very tasty with some maple syrup and s cup of hot tea. It keeps me fueled for my morning runs.
I bought a bag to try, i was skeptical about how it would taste. Then I received my order and tried it, it was delicious, I am going to keep buying it.
Found it at Big Lots one day, made it during a snow blizzard. The texture is weird. But it tastes good with some brown sugar, cinnamon and some white sugar. I would buy it again.
Taste like a mix of grits and cream of wheat --- but without the wheat. It's good tasting and you can add really whatever you like to it!
I love this cereal and have recommended it to all my GF friends! In addition to gluten, I can't have oat, and have been looking for a hot cereal to replace my much loved oatmeal. This is the perfect replacement, love the flavor and the texture! Thank you again!!
I have not been able to find this in the stores . I have used it for a long time shared with friens and family Hope to be able to get some soon
it is very tasty...not bitter at all.
I love this hot cereal. I used to cook it quite thick, add hazelnut milk or later coconut milk over and add sliced bananas, chopped almonds, and golden raisins. Lately, i've been eating a diet free of grains, nuts, and seeds to control autoimmune symptoms. People ask me what i miss most, expecting a reply of donuts or pizza. But no, its BRM GF hot cereal! So enjoy a bowl for me, if you can!!!!!!
I made this cereal on a cold winter morning, adding butter and maple syrup. I was planning on spending the morning outside and it was close to zero degrees. The cereal was very warming and filling. It tastes like corn, but has a better texture than polenta. It kept me warm and full all morning. I can't wait to experiment with more recipes.
I just tried this cereal and it is very bitter. Not sure what is in it that makes it bitter but its to the point where i am not sure i will buy it again. I am also concerned about it having GMO's since it is made with corn. Hopefully Bobs RedMill can make this an even better product by using non gmo/organic ingredients and resolve the bitter aspect.
I cannot believe how delicious this cereal is! I am an oatmeal addict and decided to try this cereal today bc I love all Bob's products and this caught my eye awhile ago. It has amazing texture and such a nutty flavor. Kinda reminded me of polenta or grits but 1000 times better. I will have to keep this in stock right next to my oatmeal in the cupboard.
Recent reports show a lot of nasty soil chemicals in grains, even organic! Bob's Mighty Tasty often gave me an acid tummy until I started THOROUGHLY rinsing it before cooking. It's time consuming and the mesh has to be fine in order to work. This product's runoff is very cloudy(!) and it takes awhile to run clean, but well worth it. No more acid gut after a good rinse.
I am trying very hard to eat non-GMO products, and I can't find any information that this cereal is one of them. It tastes good, and I may use it occasionally, but I won't buy it again until it is made with non-GMO ingredients.
Occasionally I'll add Mighty Tasty Cereal to my morning GF oatmeal for a little more substance. I particularly enjoy it cooked and chilled then cut into squares as a "polenta" type of snack. Very satisfying, filling and tasty!
I use the Might Tasty Hot Cereal for breakfast, cooking it per the directions & adding just a little butter. I started eating it because I couldn't find the Millet Grits any longer. Keep up the great work of providing more products to our stores in Central New Jersey. I'll have to also try some of your recipes to get out of my normal routine.
I noticed that most viewers seem to comment on how they use sweet add-ins, but I have found that the savory is amazing as well! I use it in place of grits to add a variety of grains, and it has a very similar consistency. You can make it for jalapeño grits, or a simple base for a sunny side egg and one of my personal favorites is to boil it in a very light chicken broth and stir in toasted sesame oil and a little curry powder. Its a healthy, filling snack when I need a pick me up.
It is so easy to prepare this creamy, delicious, good for you, cereal! The possibilities are endless. My favorite way to eat this is to add real butter, brown sugar, and a little milk. It is also very yummy with flake coconut, butter, brown sugar and a few pecan pieces, or peanut butter, a little of maple syrup, and sliced bananas, or peanut butter and semi-sweet chocolate chips-- as you can see the list goes on and on :-)
So easy, so filling, so good, and so good for you!!!
I bought this cereal when I suspected I was having digestive issues from the oatmeal I had for breakfast each day. I love that it is gluten free, a good source of fiber, easy to digest, and that it keeps me regular. I recommend it to anyone looking for an alternative to oatmeal. The only problem is that they've stopped carrying it at my local grocery stores. I hope that you continue selling this for a long time.
I hate running out! I eat it before a ride...great energy and stamina.
I love this stuff for breakfast! I make the one one serving in the microwave and then add a little French vanilla creamer! I always tell everyone it looks like birdseed, but you've got to try it!
I searched for a long time for a "good" gluten free hot cereal and this is by far the winner.
This is a great tasting cereal. A wonderful healthier alternative to cream of wheat!
This is the BEST. Ever since I discovered, I make sure I always have some on-hand. Here is a great recipe:
Bob's MTHC
-generous blueberries
-natural apple butter to taste
-chopped walnuts &/or toasted almonds
-touch of cinnamon
-Greek or organic yogurt (I used lemon today - great with the blueberries).
i never get sick of this stuff - and you can change it up. Really wonderful, healthy and satisfying!
The title name says it all, "Mighty Tasty". This cereal has only one competetor for taste, "The Right Stuff". It is easily one of the best hot cereals on the market & believe me I've tried most available. I need to keep gluten low, so having such a tasty product available is really appreciated. People on a gluten free diet will be absolutely delighted with this product!
Wow! I got a sample of this amazing GF cereal at a trade show and just made it for breakfast this morning. It has a wonderful buttery taste, great texture, great flavor, etc. I put a little milk, little brown sugar and a sweet nectarine on the cereal - yum! Heading back right now for another helping. Definitely buying this product again. And is GF!
I'm a Celiac and I love this cereal with pure maple syrup and soy milk.
made for breakfast this morning. poured over frozed raspberries. Wow..i was blown away how good this was.
This is by far the best breakfast I have tasted, I used maple syrup to sweeten it a bit
I am so glad I found this product. I make one recipe of it and it makes three breakfasts. Love it.
I mix 226 gr of cereal, with gluten free rice bran(for fiber), grated carrots, shelled flax seeds, distilled water, x-virgin olive oil and honey.|Mix it up and pour into to cupcakes. Takes approx 40 minutes at 350 F degrees. Let cool. Freeze extra and use as needed. Great product. Also, great for pets with wheat allergies.
Mighty Tasty Hot Cereal is about as real and wholesome as food gets. All parents with children need to forget about cereals from the supermarket shelf, even the ones that claim to be healthy, because they are not. They spend hundreds of thousands on advertising to trick the consumer.
Love this as a delicious, healthy option, especially during the cold Midwestern winter. Perfect with a little maple syrup, fruit and soy milk. Very satisfying. Keeps me going for hours.
I eat this every morning, 1 part cereal and 3 parts water, I microwave it on high for 2 minutes, stir, and then do 3 minutes at 50% power. I then add salt, butter, brown sugar and cinnamon. Real maple syrup is better than the brown sugar if you can afford it, or some honey or agave nectar. Anyway, its kept me going for about a year and a half now!
I can't get over how delicious this cereal is. I made one batch as per the directions and have been enjoying it reheated each morning. I just add a little bit of milk and it comes out like it was freshly made. Raisins, banana slices and Agave Nectar make it super tasty.
I bought this cereal about a month ago when I looking for an alternative to oatmeal that would be more nutritious than just farina. I used to get a multigrain wheat based cereal years ago, but hadn't been able to find it so I bought this instead. I've been really happy with it and I think it like more than the wheaty one! It's very filling and low in calories which is great.
I bought this last week at my local supermarket because I wanted a better option for breakfast. I like hot cereals but farina has little nutrition and oatmeal was getting old. I also really like the Bob's Red Mill products I've tried before. It was great. I found it really held me all morning.
I love this hot cereal and so does my 2-year-old son. This product has a wonderful flavor, soothing texture, and it calms my system. Add a little brown sugar and some raw almonds for a truly tasty, filling breakfast. The price is incredible and so worth it. This product will be a staple in my pantry from now on!
Breakfast, holds me till lunch.|Expensive at store, but reasonably priced on internet.
After deciding to go gluten free, I found this hot cereal and, boy, and I'm glad I did! Like another reviewer I use 1/3 C. of the mix to 1 C. of water and add a little cinnamon and salt while it's cooking. When it's done, I add ground flax seed, rice protein powder, stevia and almond milk. YUM! I wouldn't change a thing!
this is so good. I made the cereal...yummy, my love bird and my macaw likes it too. Silk Vanilla soy milk worked great. I also made an apple crisp with half Gluten-free pantry baking mix and half Mighty Hearty...best apple crisp I've ever made.
We already love the company, but this was a new product for us. Striving to eliminate gluten from my child diet has been tough. But the decision to buy this cereal again is not. She loves it, I love it!
I recently went on a trip and was staying at a friends house. She received a goody back from a natural food store containing a sample of this hot cereal...What a catch! I will purchase this from now on! It fills you up in the morning, tastes wondering, and is easy. I have been putting a bit of brown sugar and raisins in it, but am excited to try other things! I would FOR SURE recommend this to a friend.
I was brought up on Cream of Wheat and my dad (who made our breakfast every day) always added some Wheatina to add texture to my cereal so this is great because of the crunchy texture. I'm fairly impatient so I use the microwave a lot and wasn't sure how this wold work. It takes a little practice to figure out the correct ratio of liquid to cereal but it's worth it.
This stuff is so delicious! It is VERY filling so you don't need nearly as much as your eyes may tell you. I love adding cream or almond milk to it with local honey and pumpkin pie spice! I also throw in raw flax, hemp and chia seeds and you can add any nuts or dried fruit or berries or fresh fruit, etc. that you wish. Be creative! It's very healthy on its own and the more nuts and fruits you add,
Wonderful hot cereal. I add almond butter to have a complete breakfast that will hold me over until lunch time.
There's a health food store outside Dorado, PR, that carries quite a few of Bob's Red Mill products. Maybe we'll live long enough to be interested in the others, but this hot cereal is far and away one of the best cereals on the market that we've ever tasted. Simple to cook in the microwave, and you can add anything, lemon zest, jalepeno, I bet it could be the basis for a side dish or a dessert.
This is the best gluten free hot cereal anywhere - great taste and texture. For a breakfast with get up and go, try a bowl of Mighty Tasty with a poached egg on top, sprinkled with cheddar cheese and salsa. Yummy. It doesn't get any better than that. When I was out of polenta and needed a last minute substitute, this cereal successfully came to the rescue.
I just recently found out I am gluten intolerant and was at first at a loss as to what to eat that would not make me sick. I had been eating oatmeal for years and cannot eat most commercially made cold cereals. So, I was delighted to find that this cereal is available in my grocery store at a good price.
Every morning I either alternate between this cereal and the Creamy Rice or I make a mix of half one, half the other. I eat no other breakfast cereals.||I like it with sugar substitute so much I haven't experimented with savory versions yet, but reading other people's reviews here are inspiring me to try.
My husband has celiac disease and an aversion to "healthy tasting" foods. I was looking for ways to include more grains than just corn or rice, so we tried this hot cereal.
The first time I made it for him, I prepared a savory, cheese grits inspired version. I add a few dashes of garlic powder to the water (before boiling), then follow the recipe on the back (calls for 1 cup dry cereal).
This is how I really enjoy it: Prepare a serving of 1/3C mix, about 1C water and a squirt or two of Braggs. Then add in some slivered almonds, raisins/cranberries or any dried chopped fruit, honey, cinnamon, cardamom, and to thin it out if needed, a shot of almond milk. Yummy breakfast!
This product is all around great. It is filling and satisfying. I personally add organic fruits and maple syrup and or dry fruit. nut may be added also.|As a side dish it is great to add vegetables. I have tasty hot cereal almost everyday. incredible product. I can't get enough.
This cereal is delicious. I cook it up easliy and quick in my microwave-1/4 dry to 1 cup water for a single serving. I don't even add milk or soy, although that would be delicious too. It's wonderful to have such good and healthy gluten free options and I can't wait to try baking with it.
My son had gluten removed one year ago and we began using this hot cereal. We love it. It tastes great and I like that it provides nutrition from multiple grains instead of just corn. Just a swirl of maple sugar and some blueberries gives me confidence that he is going to school and will not be hungry and distracted in an hour.
This cereal is delicious!!! And my tender tummy loves it. I eat it for breakfast or any time I need something nourishing and soothing. Thanks!
Delicious. The blend of grains used in this hot cereal is so well balanced with wonderful flavor. I do not have gluten-intolerance but I love this cereal - quick to make and supports my digestive health. I can eat this day after day and not tire from it.
I just discovered Bob's Red Mill products and I am thrilled to pieces with the GF Might Tasty Hot Cereal! I have missed my hot cereal, along with bread and everything else. I'm going to try the oats next. I have been GF for a few years, but didn't really pay attention to what was out there. I just eliminated everything from my diet, but didn't like the alternatives that have been available. What w
I really enjoy this hot cereal, especially swirled with some pure maple syrup! The flavor is slightly sweet and dominated by the corn, but is still surprisingly good. It is fairly easy to digest too, and was a god send in the first months after my diagnosis (Celiac) when I still couldn't eat much. Now I like to add in a little flax meal to increase the nutrition. I actually prefer the texture of t
I have been using Bob's Red Mill products for a few years but recently discovered your Gluten Free Mighty Tasty Hot Cereal. It is absolutely delicious (of which I am currently eating while typing this to you). It is so tasty that you almost don't need a sweetener. I do use a natural sweetener, cinnamon, and a pad of margarine, blueberries and walnuts. DELISH! Thank you for such a wholesome cereal.
We love this cereal! It tastes great. By far the best tasting GF cereal mix! Our kids love it. The only problem I see with this particular product is that it's not organic. I am guessing that it contains GMO (Genetically Modified) corn and perhaps rice. After watching the movie Food Inc, we are trying to stay away from anything that contains genetically modified ingredients. We look forward to Bob
I was quite surprised by how good this cereal is. I got my hands on a little free sample packet, and wasn't expecting much because I've never liked hot cereals very much. But since I need to stay away from gluten, I gave it a try. I mixed in a little brown sugar, apple chunks, walnuts, and soy milk. Delicious! But the cereal really would have been fine by itself. It has a very nice flavor.
RE: Shawny From the FAQ page: Are your products genetically modified? No. All of our products come from identity preserved seeds. This means the seed planted in the ground is non-GMO. We simply can't guarantee against cross pollination due to natural occurrences such as wind drift, so we do not label our products GMO-free.
Thank you for your information on your product being non-GMO. I appreciate your effort to use only traditional seeds. I hope you will continue to move towards organics as well, since GMO's and pesticides compromise our health and our environment. As I make make the switch to organic myself, I am hoping that organic gluten-free products will become more available from concientious buinesses like yo

I'm experimenting with moving away from front sight focus. I left "top of the front sight" a while back in favor of dot geometry. As accurate as it needs to be and I don't waste time thinking.
Instead of looking at target, then guesstimating holdoff, then front sight, then rear sights, then front sight.... it's much quicker to look at target, form a triangle with the rear sights, and pull so long as the front dot is between the rears.
While I agree that the foot position isn't critical, I do believe that overall body consistency leads to accuracy. It's more important to do it the same way everytime than to do it a certain way (so long as you don't have a bad habit).
Basically, if you can draw and present while focused on a target and everything falls in line then it's not all that important exactly how you're doing it.
Good overall of the basics.

The Living Space
The spacious living room has two sofas (one including a double bed), dining table and chairs, coffee table, single couch bed, bookshelves, storage, TV, DVD player, and a stereo. There is a wide selection of books for you to read while relaxing there or in the garden.
Being at the coast and on the harbour the climate of the apartment is generally ideal but, for your comfort in the cooler season, there are gas and electric heaters. The French windows allow for ample light. If by chance you should feel the heat in the summer, there are fans and a portable air-conditioner. The apartment faces north – the ideal orientation in the southern hemisphere. In the summer the apartment remains cool, however in winter, the sun pours in to warm the apartment. We get plenty of sun in winter!
The Kitchen
The kitchen has been recently renovated and features a new cherry red tiled splash back with a horizontal strip of mirror above the benchtops - reflecting the views of the garden and water.
The kitchen is equipped with a gas stove top, electric oven & grill, electric frypan, microwave, toaster, kettle, refrigerator and freezer, double sink, dishwasher, a variety of pots and pans, cutlery, crockery and glasses - including for champagne! The kitchen also offers wide capacious drawers, plus cupboards and open shelving.
Why not use the outside barbecue for lunch or dinner on the patio or lawn? Invite your guests, or perhaps fish & chips on the beach appeals?
The Bedroom
The bedroom has a king size bed, or two extra-long singles when separated. There are also two folding beds suitable for visiting children. There is a clock radio, reading lamps on the bedside tables, a chest of drawers, and wardrobe for when you unpack!

The accreditation scheme sets nationally agreed professional standards for UK museums and shows the Compton Drive site meet national guidelines on how it is run, how it looks after the collections and the services it provide to visitors.
Museums in the scheme are re-assessed every three to five years.
Councillor Tracy Wood, Dudley's cabinet member for environment and culture, said: "Accreditation is really important as it allows us to benchmark the performance and achievements of our museums while helping us focus on meeting the needs of our community.
"To have received this status again shows just how committed our staff are to providing a fantastic service and to ensuring our collections are accessible and engaging for local, national and international visitors.
Broadfield's Kari Moodie is now the museum's keeper of glass and fine art - having spent nearly 12 years at the site as glass interpretation officer, a post which has now been taken on by Alexander Woodward from Oxford University's Museum of Natural History.
Broadfield House, which is free to visit, is open from noon to 4pm - Tuesday to Sunday.

The Dissident test is equivalent to saying (or, at least, implies): You should never be forced to give your source changes (and/or rights to use/modify them) to anyone but the users of your program. We've established that you can't require someone who lets other people use a program, but who doesn't distribute copies of it normally, to give out copies of changes made to the source to any user who asks, too, since that'd require you to keep source available permanently and make it accessible, or maintain an out-of-band distribution mechanism, which are all overly impractical. Which is to say: You should never be forced to give your source changes (and/or rights to use/modify them) to people who merely use your program (but don't already receive copies). Together, those say that: If your program is not distributed to anyone, then the license cannot require you to distribute it to anyone (no matter how many people use it or for what purpose, etc). Which is to say that, if accepted, the Dissident test and the practical concerns we have about providing source over SMS and such, imply that no free license can ever close the ASP loophole.

The tournament awards prizes for the heaviest stringers of sunfish, but the event is really about adults and children having fun fishing together. Numerous prize packages will be awarded, including an X-Box 360 with game, fishing equipment and gift cards from local businesses. Sponsors of the event include the Lake Athens Property Owners Association, Aaron's Sales and Lease Ownership, Best Western Royal Mountain Inn, Holiday Inn Express Hotel and Suites - Athens, WalMart Supercenter of Athens, Cole Air Conditioning and Appliance, Chicken Express and First State Bank. Teams must consist of one adult 18 years of age or older and one child under 18 years of age. Each team can weigh in a maximum of four fish. Multiple teams can fish from the same boat, making it possible for both parents to partner with different children and still fish as a family. Team members are not required to be related. Teams may choose to fish either on Lake Athens, which is adjacent to TFFC, or in TFFC's ponds and streams, some of which have been stocked with bluegills. All species of sunfish or bream (except largemouth bass) are allowed; for information on identifying them, see http://tpwd.texas.gov/landwater/water/aquaticspecies/inland.phtml.
