Exercise for a Healthy Church: Proclaiming
This week, I'm publishing a series about the kind of "exercise" that helps churches remain (become) healthy. (If you haven't read it yet, here's the "introduction" post.) This series goes along with my series from last week called "A Healthy Diet for the Church."
There are many different types of exercise which go above and beyond the normal things necessary for existence. This series focuses on three such exercises: 1) trusting, 2) giving, and 3) proclaiming. In this post, I investigate how the exercise of proclaiming is necessary for a church to remain (become) healthy.
For the last few months, our church has been studying the book of Acts. We have been reading and discussing one chapter per week, and we're currently up to chapter 14. One thing that has become clear through this study is that those early Christians eagerly proclaimed the good news of Jesus Christ wherever they were and to everyone they met, regardless of the consequences.
They did not proclaim the gospel because they felt obligated or because it was some kind of duty for them. They proclaimed the gospel because of the excitement and joy that knew in Jesus Christ. They knew the freedom and peace and hope and life they had in Jesus Christ, and they wanted to share that with others.
Thus, an exercise of proclaiming the gospel follows both from trusting God and from an attitude of giving sacrificially. Because they trusted God with every aspect of their lives, they were not concerned with the ramifications or consequences of sharing the gospel. Because they wanted to give everything (time and energy and talents as well as money) to others in order to help and serve them, they also wanted to give them the same hope and freedom that they had in Christ.
Often when we study the Book of Acts, we focus on the work of the apostles, especially Peter and Paul. But, when it comes to proclaiming the gospel, Luke also focuses on others, specifically others who were not apostles.
For example, after saying that everyone except the apostles (the Twelve) had been forced to leave Jerusalem because of persecution, Luke writes:
Now those who were scattered went about preaching the word. (Acts 8:4 ESV)
Then, a little later, he says the following about that same group (who were not part of the Twelve):
Now those who were scattered because of the persecution that arose over Stephen traveled as far as Phoenicia and Cyprus and Antioch, speaking the word to no one except Jews. But there were some of them, men of Cyprus and Cyrene, who on coming to Antioch spoke to the Hellenists also, preaching the Lord Jesus. (Acts 11:19-20 ESV)
Then, when Paul and Barnabas were in Antioch of Pisidia, they first proclaimed the good news to the Jews, then when many of the Jews rejected their message, they began share the gospel with Gentiles. What was the result?
And when the Gentiles heard this, they began rejoicing and glorifying the word of the Lord, and as many as were appointed to eternal life believed. And the word of the Lord was spreading throughout the whole region.
Proclaiming the good news of Jesus Christ to unbelievers was a normal aspect of the lives of these Christians and the churches in each city. Today, when Christians think about proclaiming the gospel (preaching), they typically think about preaching to the church first. This is backwards.
In order for the church to remain (become) healthy, proclaiming the gospel to those who are not in Christ must become a normal everyday aspect of our lives… but not because of some feeling of duty or obligation. Instead, like the Gentiles in Acts 13, it must flow from our joyful response to what the Lord has done and is doing in our own lives.
What would you add to my discussion of proclaiming as a necessary exercise to help the church remain (become) healthy?

This is great
And what were they preaching?
Well they weren't preaching the prosperity gospel or the go to church gospel or the pledge of allegiance gospel
They were preaching the good news of salvation in Christ from sin and death
And although there is no record that they specifically did this every day it seems pretty obvious that they did it wherever they went and without reserve

I am a consistent size 7 and usually wear the Brook ghost. Looking for a bit of a lighter shoe I decided to give these a try. the toe box on these is pretty small and tight. I loved the lightness and the heel comfort but the from of the shoe was too tight at the top of the laces.

Crocus Tip
blueberry 'Duke'
blueberry Duke - early fruiting
Delivery options
- Standard £4.99
- Click & collect FREE
Use rainwater for watering, as this is more acidic, and keep soil moist, especially when fruits start to swell
- Position: full sun or partial shade
- Soil: prefers moist, well-drained, acidic soil or ericaceous compost in a pot.
- Rate of growth: average
- Hardiness: fully hardy
Late spring flowers, that are rarely affected by frosts are followed by an early (June-July) crop of light blue berries that have a firm flesh and a mildly sweet flavour. Each mature bush has a high yield of long-lasting fruits, making it one of the most productive cultivars.
- Garden care: Prepare the ground well before planting. Blueberries can also be grown in large pots and containers if ericaceous compost is used. Prune in winter, cutting out dead or damaged branches. In spring, feed with sulphate of ammonia, sulphate of potash and bonemeal and top-dress with ericaceous compost.

Q:Vegetable suggestions for a shady veg. garden!
Hello I have raised beds for veggies in my new garden. One bed gets sun most of the day whilst the other gets only a little sunshine .Could you please help with a list of fruit and veg to grow in each of them. Many thanksAsked on 7/4/2010 by Judith
1 answer
A:Hello There, I'm afraid you will have trouble getting a bumper yield of any of the edible crops if the bed receives little sun, as most of them need full sun. Ones that tolerate some shade include radish, potato, borage, horseradish, blueberry, blackberry and tayberry - all the others will flourish in the sun. I hope this helps.

Many thanks AnneAsked on 25/2/2010 by Anne Meyjes
1 answer
A:Hello Anne, You can either pot them up into an intermediate sized pot initially (say around 35-40cm diameter) and then move them up to a largish pot (around 60cm+) in a year or two, or pot them straight out into the larger pots. I hope this helps. Helen Plant DoctorAnswered on 26/2/2010 by Crocus Helpdesk

A:Hello Kath, These plants are self fertile so they do not need a pollinating partner, although you will often get a bigger crop if they do have one. You should aim to get a pot at least 60 x 60cm and fill it with ericaceous compost. I hope this helps. Helen Plant DoctorAnswered on 8/12/2009 by Crocus Helpdesk

A:Hello Tammy, I'm afraid most fruit needs a good amount of sun to flourish, so this a north-east wall is really not an ideal spot.

1 answer
A:Hello There, There are a number of reasons why plants don't flower or subsequently go on to produce fruit. These include too much shade, not enough water or nutrients, or pruning at the wrong time of the year. I am not really sure why your Dad's have not produced fruit, but you can often give them a bit of a push by feeding with a high potash fertiliser.Answered on 13/7/2009 by Crocus Helpdesk
Q:Has my Blueberry bush died?
I purchased from you last spring a Blueberry. It arrived in good condition and after planting in a suitable sized pot it grew and thrived - and even produced some blueberries. I understood this to be hardy, but in the autumn it lost all its leaves. What's gone wrong?Asked on 21/5/2006 by MAVIS ALEXANDER
1 answer
A:Many Blueberries are deciduous, so they do lose all their leaves in the autumn and don't put on new ones until the spring. This is a natural part of their life cycle and won't affect their long term health and vigour. Therefore, I would not give up on yours just yet, but do keep a look out for new growth in the spring.Answered on 22/5/2006 by Crocus

Please take the publication date into consideration for any date references. ] [ Media Contact: TPWD News, email@example.com, 512-389-8030 ] [SL] March 14, 2013 Lingering Aftereffects of Drought Could Impact Turkey Hunting AUSTIN -- Turkey hunters can focus their attention on coaxing old boss toms during the upcoming spring season, with relatively few gullible two-year-old birds available, but will also have to contend with curious jakes, according to Texas Parks and Wildlife biologists. Rio Grande spring turkey hunting season in the 54-county South Zone runs March 16-April 28. In the 101 counties comprising the North Zone, the season opens March 30 and runs through May 12. A special one-gobbler limit season opens April 1 and continues through April 30 in Bastrop, Caldwell, Colorado, Fayette, Jackson, Lavaca, Lee and Milam counties. "We had phenomenal production in 2010, which means there should be good hunting opportunities this spring for big old gobblers," said Jason Hardin, turkey program coordinator for TPWD, "Going into last year many of these hens put forth tremendous nesting effort following a mild winter and late winter-early spring rains," he added. "This led to average to above average production so there will also be a large number of jakes on the landscape this spring." "The drought of 2011 wreaked havoc on wild turkey production," Hardin continued. "There was almost zero nesting effort and the handful of hens attempting a nest were almost all unsuccessful. This will be obvious this spring with almost no two-year-old gobblers across Texas' Rio Grande turkey range." Eastern spring turkey hunting in the 28 counties having an open season runs April 15-May 14. According to Hardin, the Eastern turkey population remains stable, but is not expanding to the degree that biologists have hoped. "Easterns across most of Texas have not shown much growth outside of a few areas stocked in 2007-2008," he said. "Those stocked sites were part of a research project examining a new stocking strategy known as super stocking." This method calls for flooding the best available habitat with 80 turkeys (60 females and 20 males). The old stocking method only placed 15-20 birds per site. Following the positive results of this "super stocking" research, TPWD is now looking for large, high quality sites to be evaluated as potential future releases sites. These sites can be single ownership or a cooperative on private or public lands. Hunters are reminded all harvested Eastern turkeys must be taken to a check station within 24 hours. To find the check station nearest you, contact a TPWD field office or call (800) 792-1112. -30- [ Note: This item is more than four years old. Please take the publication date into consideration for any date references. ] [ Media Contact: TPWD News, email@example.com, 512-389-8030 ] [LH] March 14, 2013 Possum Kingdom Fish Survey Results ATHENS -- The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department Inland Fisheries office in Wichita Falls recently completed fall electrofishing and spring gillnet surveys on Possum Kingdom Reservoir. Fisheries biologists use information from these surveys to develop plans for managing fish populations. Electrofishing surveys examine populations of largemouth bass and prey species such as sunfish and shad. Gillnet surveys monitor the catfish, white and striped bass populations. Possum Kingdom has periodically been affected by fish kills caused by golden alga, but the last major kill occurred in spring of 2010. Surveys indicate that fish populations have done relatively well since then. While the largemouth bass catch rate for young bass 10 inches and less in length was down from 2010, the catch rate for legal length bass was up. "To help the bass population, we have developed a plan to increase habitat in the Cedar Creek area," said fisheries biologist Robert Mauk. "The plan includes sinking cedar trees along the shoreline to increase fingerling bass survival. Native vegetation plantings and sunken constructed habitat structures will aid adult bass and congregate them for anglers. We also have requested that the reservoir be stocked with Florida largemouth bass this year. The last stocking occurred in 2011." The gizzard shad catch rate matched the historical average for the reservoir, but a majority of the shad were too large for most predators to consume. Bluegill numbers were up compared to 2010 but were still below the historical average. Threadfin shad were found in low abundance. Spring gillnetting found the catfish populations to be in good shape. Blue catfish abundance was the highest documented for the reservoir, and they ranged in length from 10 to 33 inches. The channel catfish catch rate was unchanged from the previous survey and was above the historical average for the reservoir. Catfish were found throughout the reservoir, but the biggest blue catfish were observed in the Caddo Creek area. The gillnetting survey showed low numbers of striped bass; sizes ranged from 22 to 26 inches in length. "Their catch rate was the lowest we have seen, though this is not surprising since the last stocking occurred in 2010 after a major fish kill caused by golden alga," Mauk said. "Striped bass have been requested annually, but the hatcheries have not been able to produce enough to meet the state's needs. This year we hope to get some stocked into the reservoir." White bass numbers were up from the 2011 survey but were slightly below the historical average. "Fish ranged in size from 7 to 15 inches in length with good body condition," Mauk noted. "Most were located between the Peanut Patch and Costello Island." Currently there are only three boat ramps available for launching, those at North and South D&D (also known as BRA Areas #4N and #4S) and one lane at Possum Kingdom State Park. Shoreline access is available for anglers at all public access areas. For information on lake access, contact the Brazos River Authority at (940) 779-2321. A water recreational use water permit from the BRA is required for boats.

For Immediate Release
KON TUM, Vietnam -- More than 10,000 primary and secondary school students in Kon Tum Province have been screened for vision problems with more than 800 of them receiving eyeglasses under an eye care project just completed with support from the U.S. Government and implemented under the leadership of the Kon Tum provincial departments of Health and Education and Training.
Funded by the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) and implemented by Helen Keller International, the pediatric eye health care project has also trained nearly 300 teachers and health workers from 100 primary and secondary schools on screening skills and equipped each school with a screening toolkit to enable the trained teachers to check their students for refractive errors at the beginning of a new school year.
"We are very happy with the results of this project and hope that the best practices adopted by Kon Tum Province will be considered by other provinces," said USAID/Vietnam Mission Director Francis Donovan.
Through screening and specialized check-up for those in need, 13 school children have been diagnosed with complicated eye diseases such as cataract, uveitis, posterior capsule pacification and ptosis and referred to Ho Chi Minh Eye Hospital for additional treatment and care.
"This project is very significant to Kon Tum province as it has not only helped students improve their vision but also improved the awareness of children, teachers and parents about eye health," said Dr. Nguyen Thi Ven, Director of Kon Tum Health Department.
The project not only improved the vision of school children, but also promoted stronger health systems by strengthening the capacity of provincial health personnel in pediatric ophthalmology and providing surgical equipment to Kon Tum General Hospital and Kon Tum Center for Social Disease Prevention and Control in order for them to provide follow-up and care to more complicated cases.
In addition to the eye care project, USAID has supported education in Kon Tum since 2008. It funded construction of a junior secondary school for ethnic minority children and refurbished 25 preschools and helped train more than 250 teachers on special skills to work effectively with ethnic minority and special needs students.

Sen. Koenen of Clara City, Minn., named DFL caucus whip
ST. PAUL — Sen. Lyle Koenen will serve as the Majority Caucus Whip when he returns to the Capitol in January.
Koenen, a DFL'er from Clara City who was elected this fall to represent Senate District 17, was recently named to the leadership role by Senate majority Leader-designate Tom Bakk.
"Senator Koenen will bring needed stability in what is often a chaotic scene at the Capitol," said Bakk.
The main task of majority whip will be to ensure fellow DFL'ers have the information to vote on specific issues.
"The Senate will be taking on a lot of big issues this session and from time to time, several bills will hit the floor at the same time," said Bakk, and Koenen will need to "keep all of our senators informed of the issues and ready to vote."
Koenen had served 10 years in the House of Representatives before winning an election this spring to fill the remaining term of the late Sen. Gary Kubly, who died while the legislature was in session.
Koenen survived a DFL primary this summer and went on to defeat former Sen. Joe Gimse, R-Willmar, in November. Senate District 17 includes all of Kandiyohi, Chippewa and Swift Counties and most of Renville County.
Koenen said he's looking forward to serving in the new role and the experience he'll gain from it.
"It is an honor to serve in Sen. Bakk's leadership team," said Koenen, in a press release Friday.
"This session will bring many challenges, but I am looking forward to getting Minnesota back on a sound financial track for the future."
Koenen will also be serving as the DFL vice-chair for the Tax Reform Division. His other committee assignments include Taxes, Environment and Energy, and Jobs, Agriculture and Rural Development.
The session begins Jan. 8.
Koenen can be reached via email at sen.lyle.koenen@ senate.mn or by calling 651-296-5094.

I'm 18 years old and considering getting a corner lip lift done to make my smile look better. Is the scarring bad?
Is Getting a Corner Lip Lift Worth It?
Doctor Answers 2
Corner lip lift alternatives
I would try to do anything other than a corner lip lift at your age. I think that is procedure reserved for patients in the 6th or 7th decade of life and at your age I would try fillers, internal lifts, or midface procedures before I would put a scar at the corner of the mouth.
Corner of Mouth Lift in 18 year old
It is not that the scarring is bad, just that some will exist. At your young age the downturning of the corners of the mouth would have to be severe to justify making a surgical change.

text: Mayo Clinic's approach By Mayo Clinic Staff Print At Mayo Clinic, specialists work together to provide you with expert, individualized care. Diagnosis at Mayo ClinicMayo Clinic offers rapid, coordinated diagnostic testing and assessments that are done by a team of skilled doctors with specialized expertise in nasal and sinus tumors, including esthesioneuroblastoma. Mayo Clinic doctors use the latest testing methods. Esthesioneuroblastoma diagnosis may involve: Physical examination. A careful history of your signs and symptoms and an examination of your eyes, nose, and head and neck give doctors important information to understand the tumor's extent and aid in diagnosis. Using a tiny, flexible camera to see in your nose. During an endoscopic examination, a thin, flexible tube (endoscope) is inserted in your nose. The tube is attached to a camera that allows doctors to look at the extent of the tumor in the nose, back of the nose (nasopharynx) and in the sinus area of the nasal cavity. Imaging tests. Imaging tests such as an MRI and positron emission tomography (PET) help to determine the location and extent of your esthesioneuroblastoma and help determine whether it has spread. Removing a sample of tissue for testing. A biopsy is a procedure to remove a sample of the tumor tissue for pathologic analysis. A biopsy may be performed by inserting special instruments through your nose to remove a small piece of the cancer. This procedure can often be done in a doctor's office. Pathologic analysis. Accurate testing and analysis of the biopsy sample is necessary to distinguish esthesioneuroblastoma from other tumors that may appear similar. Esthesioneuroblastoma diagnosis is difficult since it is very rare and can appear very similar to other cancers that occur in the head, neck or nasal areas. Pathologic analysis also determines the aggressiveness (grade) of the tumor. Mayo Clinic pathologists use the latest advances in molecular pathologic study to accurately diagnose esthesioneuroblastoma. Treatments at Mayo ClinicTreatment for esthesioneuroblastoma typically involves surgery and radiation. Chemotherapy is another treatment option that may be used. Surgery Mayo Clinic head and neck surgeons and neurosurgeons are leaders in performing esthesioneuroblastoma operations, which can be challenging procedures. Generally, a neurosurgeon and a head and neck surgeon work together as a team to remove esthesioneuroblastoma safely and effectively. Surgical techniques vary, depending on the tumor's location, and generally include procedures performed by: A neurosurgeon to open the skull to gain access to the tumor. A craniotomy is a procedure to remove a small portion of the skull in order to remove the tumor and separate it from the brain. A head and neck surgeon to remove the nasal portion of the tumor. The head and neck surgeon may make an incision along the side of the nose (lateral rhinotomy) to access the cancer. Or, in many cases, the procedure may be performed using minimally invasive surgery to access the cancer through the nose. Endoscopic surgery uses a long, thin tube (endoscope) equipped with a camera inserted through the nose to assess the cancer. Special surgical tools are passed through the endoscope to visualize the area and assist with the removal of the cancer and the surrounding tissue. Pathologists examine the edges (margins) of tissue removed during surgery (frozen section analysis). This helps surgeons to ensure that as much of the cancer is removed as possible during surgery. Radiation therapy Radiation therapy uses high-energy beams, such as X-rays or protons, to kill cancer cells. People with esthesioneuroblastoma often undergo radiation therapy after surgery to kill any microscopic cancer cells that might remain in the head and neck. Radiation therapy can also be used alone or in combination with chemotherapy if surgery isn't an option due to other health concerns or if the cancer is too advanced to be removed through an operation. Because esthesioneuroblastoma is located near many critical structures in your head, such as your brain and your eyes, radiation beams must be aimed precisely to focus on cancer cells and spare the healthy tissue nearby. Mayo Clinic offers many advanced forms of radiation treatment planning and delivery, such as proton therapy and intensity-modulated radiation therapy. Chemotherapy Chemotherapy uses drugs to kill cancer cells. In people with esthesioneuroblastoma, chemotherapy is combined with radiation therapy after surgery to kill any cancer cells that may remain, especially for cancers that are very aggressive or extensive.

The effort to consolidate three county sewer districts to more cost effectively meet new pollution-control regulations took another step forward this week.
The county commission said the three districts in eastern Franklin County can seek approval from circuit court for the combined district.
If the court approves the consolidation, voters in the three districts would still have to vote in favor of it.
The three districts that want to combine are Labadie, Beauty View Acres and Gray Summit Hills.
Without forming the consolidated district, the individual districts would not be able to maintain affordable sewer service, said Kent Cunningham with the Labadie district.
Meeting the new pollution standards will require system upgrades that can be more easily paid for by the three districts working together as opposed to them taking on the upgrades individually.
The total cost of the upgrades is expected to cost about $2 million.
Presiding County Commissioner John Griesheimer called the consolidation "good government cooperation."
Griesheimer said he sponsored a bill when he was in the Missouri Senate in 2007 that allowed for the formation and reorganization of sewer districts.
"For me personally this is a great day," Griesheimer said. "I would have never thought that the bill that I sponsored in 2007 and passed that year would even remotely affect anything in Franklin County because there are so many of these sewer districts around the state."
The next step is for the circuit court to declare the boundaries of the consolidated sewer district, which would be called the Labadie Creek Watershed Sewer District.
Cunningham has said that consolidating the three districts helps create an "economy of scale" by spreading the cost of the upgrades across a larger entity.
Improvements would be made to the Labadie sewer treatment facility to reduce the ammonia level, and efforts will also be made to reduce phosphorous.
The Labadie plant would be the central treatment point for the three districts.
The other part of the project will involve connecting the other two sewer districts to the Labadie treatment facility. This will require building new lift stations to collect the sewage from Beauty View Acres and Gray Summit Hills and installing a pipeline to connect those lift stations to the Labadie plant.
The user fee for the combined district may be about $40 to $50 per month for residential customers depending on how much grant money there is for the project. Commercial customers' rates may be based on water usage.
Currently, the monthly rates for the separate districts are $36.41 for Labadie; $55, Beauty View Acres; and $30 for Gray Summit Hills.

Ask Experts & Get Answers to Your Questions - ASAP
Responding to rumors that McCarty was still lurking in the vicinity of Fort Sumner almost three months after his escape, Sheriff Garrett and two deputies set out on July 14, 1881, to question one of the town's residents, a friend of McCarty's named Pedro Maxwell (son of land baron Lucien Maxwell).[107] Close to midnight, as Garrett and Maxwell sat talking in Maxwell's darkened bedroom, McCarty unexpectedly entered the room.[108] There are at least two versions of what happened next.
One version suggests that as the Kid entered, he failed to recognize Garrett in the poor light. McCarty drew his pistol and backed away, asking "¿Quién es? ¿Quién es?" (Spanish for "Who is it? Who is it?").[108] Recognizing McCarty's voice, Garrett drew his own pistol and fired twice, the first bullet striking McCarty just above his heart, killing him.[108] In a second version, McCarty entered carrying a knife, evidently headed to a kitchen area. He noticed someone in the darkness, and uttered the words, "¿Quién es? ¿Quién es?" at which point he was shot and killed in ambush style.
Although the popularity of the first story persists, and portrays Garrett in a better light, many historians contend that the second version is probably the accurate one.[109] A markedly different theory, in which Garrett and his posse set a trap for McCarty, has also been suggested. Most recently explored in the Discovery Channel documentary, Billy the Kid: Unmasked, this theory contends that Garrett went to the bedroom of Pedro Maxwell's sister, Paulita, and bound and gagged her in her bed. Paulita was an acquaintance of Billy the Kid, and the two may have considered getting married. When McCarty arrived, Garrett was waiting behind Paulita's bed and shot the Kid.

Romney to name vice presidential candidate Saturday; report says Ryan is choice

I can't tell the future. If I could I would never enjoy movies again, and then what would be the point of the millions I made on penny stocks?
I'll start looking for English tutoring jobs in Japan.

Let's just all be grateful it isn't another Sarah palin. i bet Ryan knows where Russia is!

To: KJB1
So your saying what your saying because this is what you were told by the President and his failed Administration!
If Paul Ryan is a man who wants to destroy Medicare answer me this:
How is Paul Ryan's plan destroying Medicare when over the next ten years Medicare would grow from 530 Billion to 803 billion in spending ten years out? That is about a 70% increase in that time. All his plan does is slow down the increases by 3% per year to bring Medicare in line along with the other cuts in other areas needed to balance our budget!
Obama is destroying this economy with STAGGERING DEBT, POLITICAL PAYOFF's leading to BANKRUPTCIES! 16 Trillion in debt will destroy Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security and every single other aspect of the Federal Government if it is not reigned in now!
President Obama has run four years of Trillion dollar deficits! All borrowed from foreign countries. Do you think they care about Medicare or anything else? Not a Chance!
OBama's legacy is the highest poverty rate since World War 2. Poorer families, higher homelessness, despair in men and women in finding jobs!
Obama has failed!
UtahBlueDevil Durham, NCAug. 11, 2012 7:45 a.m.
Romeny had the far right locked down already. What he needed was someone that would make a person like me give him a second look. All he has done is reaffirmed he has no interest in moderates or being abel to work with both sides of congress.
The biggest paradox of Ryan is here is a person that who as a youth benefited greatly from the social security system when his father died, does not believe that benefit should be available to others. Ryan came from a well off family, and actually didn't need that benefit. Perhaps that is what has formed his perception that families don't need that benefit.... but fails to understand that most families don't come from a town that is run by their family. He is a good guy, and some of his ideas are sound. But he doesn't understand poverty or the struggle of those people any more than Romney.
These two are cut from the same financial cloth. No rags to riches story here.... and no relateability factor to work th their favor. They will need to put forward just good sound ideas and policy statements from here on out.

Ah it's the Fox News ticket.
Bye bye Latino vote.

Bye bye swing states. Great news for Obama.
Mitt caves to the tea party just like McCain.
1conservative WEST VALLEY CITY, UTAug. 11, 2012 6:17 a.m.
Demos. will probably attack Ryan as wanting to eliminate Medicare even though nothing is further from the truth. Demos. think if they lie enough and repeat the lie often enough, someone is bound to believe it.
Ryan has ideas to help solve a 16 trillion $$$ deficit. All Obama seems to be able to do is put more people on food stamps and welfare.
t702 Las Vegas, NVAug. 11, 2012 5:48 a.m.
Excellent choice!
Pa. Reader Harrisburg, PAAug. 11, 2012 5:19 a.m.
Ryan is a great pick --- in Utah.
Independents will not support Romney with Paul Ryan as the veep.
I think Romney is terrified of the radical GOP base staying home in November and feels he needs to pander to the tea party.
Undecided voters will overwhelmingly fall to the president.
This selection is Palinesque in that it will energize the Democratic base every bit as much as it will those on the right. Poll numbers will stay close but it is now hard to imagine a scenario where Romney can score enough electoral votes to win. His only hope was that Obama supporters would be lukewarm and not turn out in large numbers. That hope is now gone.
But Romney will win Utah!
Glen in the Bronx Bronx, NYAug. 11, 2012 4:45 a.m.
Did anyone forget that Ryan has been criticized by the leaders of his own church? When Ryan offered up his Medicare gutting "road-map" and claimed it was guided by his faith in Jesus, the Catholic bishops corrected him and advised it appeared to be guided by his faith in Ayn Rand. That sounds like sound-bite fodder to me, and is going to come back to haunt this campaign. While it is said "Victory goes to the bold," in my humble opinion if it's Ryan, Romney lost the election today.
A1994 Centerville, UTAug. 11, 2012 12:27 a.m.
I don't mean this in a rude way, but do you read anything at all on medicare or social security? It's already as good as destroyed if we don't do something now. You can't honestly believe that we can keep the status quo and be okay. It's mathematically impossible under Obama's plan. The Senate hasn't even passed a budget in over 3 years. Are you really okay with that?

@Red Corvette
I disagree. This isn't an election for the 'same old, same old.' Ryan has presented a budget that attempts to address the $16,000,000,000,000 gorilla in the room. Compare that to our current VP who actually said "We have to keep spending so we don't go bankrupt." Ryan is a smart man and will run circles around Joe Biden in a debate. He's articulate and is not a bomb thrower. This is also going to force the Democrats to focus on the budget and economy, something they would rather not do. This is a strong ticket. Not just to win, but to actually make a difference in this country. I like it.
TRUTH Salt Lake City, UTAug. 10, 2012 11:41 p.m.
If I am Biden, I am worried! Ryan is smarter than Obama, and is now the smartest man in the room!

We bought super fine play sand click the link to see which we bought. We aslo purchased these Ancient Fossils but you can also make your own like I did here when we made our own fossils.
Then we added paint brushes buried the ancient fossils and let the kids excavate.
They loved discovering the buried fossils.
We ended up adding some glass beads as well for added texture and fun.
We used our Moon Sand Recipe here with a cocoa variation
In this table we used the Prehistoric Mammals skulls.
We set out molds and also showed how you can pack the moon sand around a skull
Then break it open and find what you are looking for prehistoric fossils
The table below is very similar to the first table except we used thicker sand from our sand box. We definitely prefer the finer sand we used up above for the sensory table excavation. But if you forgot to go buy the nicer sand improvise with what you have!
Materials Needed:
Play Sand
Dino Skulls from Safari LTD
Paint Brushes
Let the children excavate the dinosaur skulls with their brushes. They can gently rush away the sand to uncover the fossils hidden below.
Here are the dino skulls they are looking for
Fizzy Bubbling Dinosaur Slime
Dinosaur Bone Excavation Sensory Bag
Dinosaur Bone Excavation Preschool

The Cape Henlopen High School Vikings golf team added a pair of victories to its 2011 record while dropping a very close match to Dover High School's Senators.
The Vikings traveled to Green Hill Yacht & Country Club near Salisbury, Md., May 2, to play Delmar High's squad and won by a single stroke, 189-190.
Devin Medd and James Fenstermaker tied for the best score among the Vikings with a pair of 46s. That was four strokes behind the Delmar medalist. Nick Purnell was one stroke behind his teammates at 47, while Matthew Dernoga's 50 proved to be just good enough for the team's winning margin.
The Vikings then hosted Dover and St. Thomas More at Rehoboth Beach Country Club May 3. Cape beat St. Thomas More 176-186, but had a taste of its own medicine against Dover, losing 175-176.
Alex Kimbro of Dover won medalist honors with his 39. Ghigliotty scored best for Cape with his 41.
Medd was a stroke back from Ghigliotty with his 42. Purnell improved by a stroke over the previous round with a 46, and James Kersey completed the Vikings' scoring with his 47.
The 7-3 Vikings have five more dual matches scheduled for the season, ending with a Tuesday, May 17 upstate match against Saint Mark's High School.
This year's conference championship tournament is set for Tuesday, May 24, at Wild Quail near Camden.
Club Tournament 2011 results
We're happy to publicize the Cape Region's local club tournament results in this column. Just send an email with the particulars, but please bear in mind the Tuesday deadline for the Friday edition.
For example, Kings Creek Country Club held its Ladies' Opening Day Tournament May 1. The Game of the Day, as they call it, was a four-person scramble.
Carol Simon, Beth Magnus, Gail Petren, and Donna Hilderly won first place, while second place went to the team of Hope Adams, Jennifer Falcone, Melanie Pereira, and Susie Shevock.
Diane Clark was closest to the pin on the eighth hole, and Nadine Carrick was closest to the pin on the 16th hole.
The club also announced its 2011 Ladies Golf Association officers. Prabha Karapurkar is president, Faye Slatcher is vice president, MaryBeth Merolla is treasurer, and Nancy Barlow is secretary. Susie Shevock and Sherry Pie are tournament co-chairs.
A minor equipment problem
During this week's league night round at Shawnee Country Club, I had a 100-yard approach shot to the par-4 third hole.
I reached that spot in only three shots, he said ironically, thanks to a pulled drive and then a five-wood second shot that neatly sliced off a pine tree branch, but also dropped the ball at the foot of that tree. My only option was to bunt the ball to an open area, where I might have had a chance for a miracle one-putt bogey.
That's when the fun started.
My Ping G10 wedge is normally up to the task of an uphill 100-yard shot, but not this time. The graphite club shaft snapped off at the club head hosel.
The heavy steel club head whirled uphill about 25 yards. The ball flew into a greenside bunker.
I put my newly two-piece pitching wedge in my golf bag, and finished the hole with a routine two-putt for a seven.
This is the first time one of my graphite-shafted clubs has broken, but it's not my first experience with sudden equipment failure.
Several years ago, while playing with my brother Dave, I drove off Shawnee's seventh tee with my formerly trusty two-wood.
The club head separated from the shaft at impact and flew about 40 yards into the adjacent woods, never to be seen again. The sudden loss of weight on the now headless shaft nearly made me screw myself into the tee box.
Shawnee's longtime head golf professional, Devon Peterson, will have a new repair order from me.
You might consider taking a closer look at your own clubs to check for signs of unusual wear and tear.

A new bar and restaurant, combining drinking, eating and exercise (yes, really) has opened its doors in Earls Court.
Ping is a combination of kitschy drinks, the pun-tastic Chandler Ping (a Watermelon Martini hidden inside frozen fruit), anyone? There will be a chance for punters to air their competitive streak on Tournament Tuesdays, and on Monday there is an all-you-can-eat pizza deal, which comes complete with frozen Margarita.
As the pizza suggests, the menu is Italian, dominated by an array of pizzas, flatbreads and bruschettas, but the interior is thoroughly New York-inspired, designed by the team behind Meatliquor.

New bike lanes raise awareness, questions in downtown Raleigh
Posted March 24, 2016
Raleigh, N.C. — Spring is here, and the warmer weather has many people thinking about getting outside.
In Raleigh, people looking to enjoy a bike ride near downtown will likely notice new bike lane markings featuring bright green paint.
The markings are part of the city's effort to encourage cycling, but some people have said the new designs are a bit confusing.
Cyclist Matthew Fitzgerald said he's adjusted well to the new markings and is happy to see cycling become more popular downtown.
"I've been part of the cycling culture down here for a long time, and I love seeing that it's becoming part of the culture down here," he said. "It warms my heart."
The new lane markings turn from solid lines to dashed lines, and they are filled with green stripes.
The city says the markings are a reminder to drivers who approach an intersection to look for cyclists. The markings are also a reminder for cyclists to pay extra attention.
"The green paint is meant to highlight that it's a potential conflict area," Eric Lamb, the city's transportation planning manager, said. "It's a different color, meant to raise awareness for the potential for conflict."
While the lanes are raising awareness, they have also raised some eyebrows.
"There are a group of people who are totally confused," Raleigh City Councilwoman Mary-Ann Baldwin said.
Baldwin said feedback from some citizens is helping the city make future bike lane installations easier for everyone.
"I think, if we roll it out in smaller chunks and do an education campaign with the neighborhood, that will have better outcomes," Baldwin said.
Fitzgerald says better education will make the streets safer for everyone, and he said he's glad the lanes have at least brought more awareness.
Lamb says a bike lane education campaign will be rolled out in May to coincide with National Bike Safety Month. He says engineers will study accident statistics and how well the green stripes hold up over time before expanding the lanes into other parts of the city.
For now, the new lanes are on Salisbury, Hillsborough and Wilmington streets.


text: Stoner Takes Assen Pole Cycle News Staff | June 27, 2008Ducati Marlboro's Casey Stoner ran the fastest ever lap of the Circuit van Drenthe in Assen, Holland to snatch the pole position for Saturday's Dutch TT, the tenth round of the MotoGP World Championship. Five days removed from his second win of the season in the British Grand Prix at Donington Park, the Australian showed that the electronics upgrade that had worked in England worked in Holland. Stoner was quick from the start, turning a series of successively faster laps. He wasn't always at the top, but was there for much of the hour, and when it counted, at the very end. Stoner's 22nd and final lap was a 1:35.520, which seemed unassailable when he set it with about 2:45 mins. to run in the one hour session. And it was, right to the very end when Repsol Honda's Dani Pedrosa appeared out of nowhere to challenge. The Spaniard was on pace to take the pole after his third split, but faded on the run to the flag. He finished .032 secs. off pole when he crossed the line after time had expired. Pedrosa's lap knocked Fiat Yamaha's Valentino Rossi to third and teammate Nicky Hayden to the second row. The pole was Stoner's third of the season and took nearly a second off the previous track record of 1:36.411 set by John Hopkins in 2006. Hopkins crashed twice in qualifying, the second one a harrowing high speed slide into the air fence. Weather played a part in both of Friday's session. Rain prior to the morning session left the track in less than ideal condition. The wind picked up in the afternoon to the point that Stoner said "it was really pushing the front in a lot of corners where we have to rely on the front a lot, so it was just making things ten times more difficult than they should be. "Especially with the qualifying tires, putting again more pressure on the front I was losing it quite a lot of times the last three laps. "Other than that, we had another problem with the dashboard from Dorna. I think we had a small problem and the lap time wasn't coming up, so we weren't sure what was going on there. And we had another small problem, so I didn't get a lot of laps on race tires, but we did enough yesterday to know what's going on." What went on Thursday was that he'd done 13 laps faster than the single best lap of second fastest Valentino Rossi. Pedrosa was happy with the progress he made throughout the session. His final move came in a jump from sixth to second, a lap of 1:35.552 that he was impressed with. "So I'm happy to be on the front row, because it's also the first time in this track," he said. "And then for tomorrow's race, we will have to wait for the weather, but it looks a little bit better than today. "Yeah, it's quite windy, so this make things more difficult, but we have to look for tomorrow's race and try to make our best on the race." Rossi had been on top until Stoner took him down at the 2:45 mark with what would be his best lap. Rossi was ahead of Stoner's time in all three splits, but dropped off in the final segment and wasn't able to take pole. In order to stop Stoner in Saturday's race, Rossi said "we have to improve a bit. We make some small modifieds during the practice and also the last run for the qualifying tire that worked well. So we hope that work also with the race tires. "We have to wait for understand which type of race we expect, because the condition here change a lot and very fast, so is important to understand if this will be wet and dry and how much temperature for decide the tires. "But anyway, I'm happy, I'm happy because the front row is always my target for the qualification. And we are very close. Unfortunately, I have some small problem with the last tire, but anyway the lap time is quite good and we try tomorrow to make a good start and make a good race." Hayden finished .455 secs. off Stoner and only .010 secs. in front of LCR Honda's Randy de Puniet. But he was content with how the Honda RC212V with the pneumatic valve engine worked in its first visit to Assen. "The bike is working pretty good. It's worked pretty good since we got here," he said. "Everything has went OK. We had a little clutch problem and it made our tire changes a lot slower and left one qualifier in the tank that we didn't try, so that kind of sucks. But bike's working pretty good. Just, man, try to get a result tomorrow." Hayden wasn't sure he'd be able to match Stoner's race pace in the 1:36's, "but the bike's running pretty good and I'm going to try to dig in tomorrow and try to get a result." Behind de Puniet came Tech 3 Yamaha's Colin Edwards. Edwards was the session leader with about 25 minutes to run, but couldn't improve his time and could only watch as others did. He'll start the race from the end of row two. Fiat Yamaha's Jorge Lorenzo leads off row three from the Rizla Suzuki of Chris Vermeulen and Shinya Nakano on the first of the San Carlo Gresini Hondas. Vermeulen is the lone Suzuki rider after teammate Loris Capirossi was forced out by a Thursday practice crash injury. Rockstar Makita Suzuki's Ben Spies watched Thursday practice before returning to the U.S. 2008 Assen MotoGP Qualifying: 1. Casey Stoner (Ducati) 1:35.520 2. Dani Pedrosa (Honda) 1:35.552 3.

Synth Access
The first
Multiac Nylon prototypes were already nearing completion when we became
intrigued by the possibilities presented by Roland's GR-1 guitar synth system.
Guitars had already been triggering synths for many years but they were
either very expensive and not really guitars but guitar-like triggering
devices or they just didn't work very well. The GR-1 made the guitar/synth
connection available to guitar players of all budgets and abilities. However,
using the GR still involved attaching a significant amount of hardware to
your existing guitar. So we began experimenting with the idea of a guitar
built from the ground up with synth tracking in mind. Our old friend Richard
McLish of the RMC pickup company already had developed a hexaphonic pickup
and preamp system called the RMC Polydrive and we asked him to work on a
version of his system customized for our new guitar, which we called the
Multiac. Richard's system worked beautifully, however, we discovered that
we could impact the tracking of the system with fundamental changes to the
guitar itself. Bracing, scale length, string tension and wood selection
all had some effect on the response time (tracking) of the synth. After
about twelve prototypes we not only had achieved superb guitar synth tracking
but we'd done it in a nylon string guitar. Several years have passed since
the first Multiac made its debut and we continue to refine our designs and
explore new possibilities such as the new Multiac Fretless. There are now
twelve Godin models that include synth access.

Detroit • General Motors Co.'s new CEO, Mary Barra, says she will largely keep in place the plans of her predecessor, from a restructuring in Europe to a focus on improving profit margins. But she hopes to accelerate that progress.
"We're no longer just looking for viability, but we're looking for growth and leadership in the operations we have around the world," Barra told a small group of reporters Thursday. "Now that some of those things have gotten the attention and are righted, let's take it and go."
Thursday's 50-minute session was Barra's first interview since she became CEO on Jan. 15. Barra, 52, joked that the quiet conference room at GM's Detroit headquarters was a better place to talk than last week's Detroit auto show, where she was mobbed by hundreds of reporters.

No more fireworks on Vancouverites' lawns
Vancouver voted in favour of a pursuing a new bylaw that will ban consumer fireworks from private property while expanding their use beyond just Halloween. The combustibles will also be permitted on other culturally significant days like New Year's Eve and Diwali, but people must light them off in designated public spaces. (SUBMITTED)
The screeching sounds and rainbow lights of consumer fireworks are set to fill Vancouver's skies five times a year — not just on Halloween — after city council voted Tuesday in favour of expanding the use of the pyrotechnics.
Vancouver fire chief John McKearney, who spoke before council, said council's desire to permit fireworks on culturally significant holidays like Diwali and Lunar New Year could work if the combustibles were banned from people's yards.
Instead, the fire department would issue permits and people would only be allowed to light the displays in designated public spaces under the supervision of police, firefighters or park board staff.
McKearney said placing restrictions on where the fireworks are ignited would reduce the cost of damage they cause and save the city money when it comes to enforcement.
The Vancouver Police Department responds to an average of 309 calls each Halloween, while unsafe use of the light displays has resulted in $1.3 million in damage to property during the last five years, according to McKearney.
The council motion calls for the fire chief to finish his research into fireworks expansion, nail down the locations the combustibles could be ignited, and consult with the Vancouver Park Board.
The five culturally significant days also include New Year's Eve and Vaisakhi, but McKearney said he didn't recommend the use of consumer fireworks on Canada Day since the dry July weather could pose a hazard.
How do you feel about the restrictions on where residents can use fireworks? And do you think it's a good idea council wants to expand their use to holidays other than just Halloween?

F1 Fanatic - World Rally Championship
This topic contains 18 replies, has 11 voices, and was last updated by Steven 3 years, 9 months ago.
By the way, I'm not as familiar with WRC as I am with F1 and other series; how do Neuville and Sordo compare? I've seen these names before, but how do they compare against the current champ, Ogier? Will there actually be some legit competition for Ogier, or is WRC just beginning a new era of Sebastien domination (i.e. will Ogier just do what Vettel does and predictably win)?
Neuville was 2nd in the WRC last year for an M-Sport (Ford) team that had much less resources available to them than the Volkswagen team that Ogier and Latvala race for. Sordo is a tarmac specialist in the vein of Gilles Panizzi, but he's not utterly incompetent on dirt and snow. Neuville could easily be a multi-time champion in the years to come if Hyundai can deliver the goods, as he is still very young. Sordo…he can win you a rally or two for your team, that seems to be his upside, which is still better than most.
I would expect Neuville to stay in touch with Ogier, but Ogier will probably win everything again. I would only expect Neuville to win a rally if Ogier makes a mistake or if he strings together a fantastic rally.
That said, dominance doesn't make rallying boring, probably because it's not circuit-based and the cars look spectacular regardless of their position. It doesn't matter if they're first or one hundred and first – they look awesome running along a narrow ribbon of tarmac with an exposed cliff face on one side and a fifty-metre drop on the other.
@prisoner-monkeys No doubt. I don't typically watch full rallies, I try to get WRC highlights whenever possible, but they're not always readily available. When I do watch rally videos, however, I'm scared just from watching; F1 drivers may have balls to drive that fast, but WRC drivers need to have balls of steel since the whole rally surface is constantly changing, and a mistake could mean a large tumble down a hill, or into a tree, etc. which is really no longer a problem in F1.
Even when Loeb was winning all the time, watching him on highlights or other videos, it's truly amazing to see him drive. I remember watching a video of him doing Argentina, it looked like part of the rally was just on a mountain (i.e. you will be rolling for hours if you go off the narrow road) and the speed he took through corners, jumps (!), etc. was mindblowing. So like you said, if Ogier wins, it's not quite as undramatic as when Vettel wins on track.

Have Mercedes Questions? Ask a Mechanic for Answers ASAP
ignition lock out. New key has not helped.
Hi, can you explain the problem? Does the key turn in the ignition?
Have you checked fuse 27 for the steering lock?
Have you let the new key sit in the ignition for 20 - 30 minutes?
Ok, assuming that the battery is fully charged you're pretty much stuck without Star Diagnosis to view the actual values of the system. You could have a bad electronic ignition switch or a bad electronic steering lock. You need to view the data stream to see where you are losing it. You can try tapping on the ignition switch and on the steering lock and see if that helps the situation but aside from that you need the Mercedes tester to diagnose the system from here.
Car was parked by valet and when I returned to pick it up the old key would not turn in ignition.
It's possible that the ignition switch was damaged if the valet tried to force the ignition off without having the car in park. It's really hard to say.
Do you have anything else to add?
There is really nothing more that you can try short of tapping on the units. You need to be able to see the communication between the key, the EIS and the ESL in order to know what is wrong.
I wished that you might be abled to help me!
Thanks for trying
I wish I could do more. Try the tap test. You might get lucky.

We bridge the gap between crisis and the unknown with monthly personal security lessons. Advice from seasoned good guys and debriefed bad guys providing tactics for you – to create a more secure you.
What do we do? We provide original offensive and defensive tactics that will give you an edge against threats. We gather information from Special Operations Personnel, SWAT Officers and Detectives. We debrief Murderers, Rapists, Hackers and Thieves – collecting their dirty tricks. Then, we provide security lessons straight from wolves' mouths.
