Site visit information is also used to try to make your Site visit more productive, relevant, and enjoyable. The following information may help you better understand how information about Site visits is gathered:
B. Credit Card Information. When you purchase Services from us through use of a credit card, we collect information and use it solely to place your order with us. We utilize secure server software (SSL) to encrypt all account and personal information you input in connection with processing an order. We also segregate customer credit card data to protect it from unauthorized access. As part of the process of enrolling for Services, though, we may collect personally identifiable information ("PII") that could be used to communicate with you for other purposes. In that regard, your contact information would be covered by the "PII You Provide to Us on the Site" subsection of this Policy.
C. PII You Provide To Us on the Site. There are Services offered on the Site that involve our obtaining PII from you and storing and using that PII.
D. Social Media Accounts. We may collect information about you through social media accounts we maintain or with which we are affiliated.

E. Links to Third Party Sites. Advertisements and promotional offers from advertisers, listing companies, and service providers appear on the Site. If you click on a link contained on one of those listings or advertisements, you are accessing a website that is not owned, operated, or controlled by us. The operator of that site should have its own privacy policy which will govern the collection and use of information on that site. We are not responsible for any PII or other information collected or provided on the site of an advertiser, sponsor, affiliate, or other entity to whose website you can link to from our Site. We may customize some ads to cause them to offer items in which we believe you may be interested but we do not provide any PII to an advertiser when you view or interact with its sponsored link or advertisement.
F. Sale of VCG. If we or our assets were to be sold, the information we have collected would likely be among the assets acquired by the buyer. That buyer, though, would acquire the information subject to the terms of our then-current Privacy Policy, including the opt-out choices described in the "Privacy Choices" section.
G. Information about Children. Our Site, products, and services are neither developed for, nor directed at children. We do not employ or offer targeting toward children under the age of 18. If you believe that your child has provided us with personal information and would like to have that information deleted, you can contact us in the manner described in the "Contacts" Section of this Privacy Policy.
H. Subpoenas, Orders, or Protection of Rights or Safety. We may be required by judicial or governmental subpoena, search warrant, or order to provide access to information we have collected. If that were to occur, we will utilize good faith efforts to protect, limit access to, and restrict future use of PII. We also reserve the right to disclose PII of individuals if we reasonably believe that doing so is necessary to protect our rights or to protect the safety of the individual or others.
I. Compliance with Applicable Regulations and Laws. Finally, we reserve the right to modify our privacy practices before a new version of our Privacy Policy is published (see the "Changes to Policy" section) if doing so is necessary to comply with any applicable law or regulation that relates to information collected, stored, or used by us.

Why did the OPC break relations with the CRC.
The OPC suspended, then terminated, fraternal relations with the CRC because of the CRC's opening up the offices of ruling elder, minister and evangelist to women, contrary to the word of God and historic Reformed church order. This is thought to be indicative of an unwillingness in the CRC to submit to Scripture. The very next day after the OPC terminated its relations with the CRC, the PCA took the same action.
The OPC has not declared the CRC to be no longer a true church of Jesus, but it calls upon the CRC to return to faithfulness to her Lord.
For further information contact Dr. George W. Knight, who chairs the Committee on Ecumenicity and Interchurch Relations.
"Questions and Answers" is a weekly feature of the OPC website. The answers come from individual ministers in the Orthodox Presbyterian Church expressing their own convictions and do not necessarily represent an "official" position of the Church, especially in areas where the Standards of the Church (the Scriptures and the Westminster Confession of Faith and Catechisms) are silent.
The questions come from individuals like yourself. If you have questions about biblical and theological matters, you are invited to send them by e-mail by using the "Pose a Question" link on the OPC home page or by clicking here.
At least one new question is posted each week, so there should always be something new here for you to read. (For those people who would like to look at previous questions and answers, they will continue to be available as well.)
The purpose of the OPC website's "Questions and Answers" is to respond to biblical and theological questions. Matters of church discipline, disputes, or debates go beyond the scope of our work. We recommend that you present your concerns in these areas to the appropriate judicatory. In most cases this will be to a local pastor, elder, or session. We do not want the website to replace personal involvement in, or commitment to, the local, visible church.
While we will respond to every serious questioner, we are not bound to give a substantive answer to every question, should we deem the question to be beyond the scope of our purpose or our own ability to answer.
You will receive an answer by e-mail. Please be patient as many of our respondents are busy pastors. The response to your question may take up to two (2) weeks. Some of the questions submitted will be chosen to be posted here, along with the corresponding answers.
Note that the "Questions and Answers" posted on the site have been editedall personal references are removed, Scripture references or from some source may be added, and sometimes portions are expandedto make the questions and answers more useful to a larger audience.

Storage Wars star Mark Balelo was found dead Monday of an apparent suicide, TMZ reports. He was 40.
Remember other celebrities we've lost this yearBalelo died from carbon monoxide poisoning in his car after running the vehicle in the garage of his auction house in Simi Valley, Calif.On Saturday, Balelo had been arrested for a drug-related offense. When he was released from jail, he called his fiancée because he was afraid of hurting himself, according to TMZ. The pair reportedly met at Balelo's office on Sunday, where they talked for hours before the reality star took a nap, woke up and seemed better. Balelo's fiancée left him at the office Sunday evening and an employee found his body the next morning, TMZ reports.An autopsy is scheduled for Tuesday, according to The Ventura County Star.Nicknamed "Rico Suave" on Storage Wars because of the flashy attire he wore to auctions, Balelo first appeared on the show in the second season. He made headlines in 2011 when he helped Nicolas Cage recover a rare 1938 comic book featuring Superman's debut that was stolen from his home. The comic book was valued at $1 million.

Birds of prey become stars of Pittsburgh skies
National Aviary debuts new show 'Talons'
The National Aviary on the North Side has chosen the right time to debut Talons, its new show featuring birds of prey.
As eagles, vultures, falcons, crows and owls fly through the air in their FliteZone Theater, bald eagles are flying over the nearby Monongahela River, fishing for their 6-week-old chick.
The eagles' nest near the Glenwood Bridge in Hays has been providing walkers and cyclists with lots of entertainment, as they try to spot both the chick and its parents. A good scope or binoculars are the best way to get a look.
But starting Memorial Day weekend at the National Aviary, you can get an even closer look. Independence, the Aviary's bald eagle, is one of the performers. He is impressive, despite having limited flying abilities because of a wing injury he suffered in the wild.
There is the giant Eurasian Eagle-Owl, the largest owl species in the world. One of the performers is X, the mother of the new little owlet.
And there is the graceful Lanner falcon, Amout, who demonstrates just a little of the speed that makes falcons the fastest birds in the world.
The finale of the Talons showcases six vultures, to drive home the message that birds of prey are often misunderstood, and often reflect the health of the planet. Vultures are crucial in stopping the spread of disease by eating the carcasses of animals that have rabies and anthrax.
They are not endangered in the United States, but in the Indian subcontinent, the use of medicines in livestock have decimated the vulture population. Once 40 million strong in that region 20 years ago, there are now only 10,000.

Before I found Nu Skin, or rather, Nu Skin found me, I had just moved back to Norway after living in Australia for a year. I took the year off right out of High School, as I didn't know what to do with my life at that point. That year of working and travelling really gave me a taste of freedom. I had been raised with a good work ethic, but the thought of working in an office, Monday to Friday, and having a boss for the next 40 years, was really frustrating for me. I wanted to be able to choose, decide for myself, be free, travel, spend time with my family and loved ones - and I thought; there must be an alternative!
Most people around me told me I should stop dreaming, that it was impossible, and that I should either look for a "real" job or start studying. Then Nu Skin appeared. In the beginning, I didn't understand anything about the business. But as I saw the compensation plan my initial thoughts were: Nobody has ever offered me this deal; time and money, as well as the opportunity to help others succeed. I was sceptical at first, but I had a good gut feeling, and something told me that this could be the solution I was looking for - so, despite the fact that I did not know what to do in this business, or how to succeed, I started; with a dream of being able to quit my job, make a living from my own business, and be free from the Monday to Friday routine.
Of course, there have been challenges along the way. I was very young when I started and I had next to no experience in running a business - but I had a dream. I started with a positive attitude and have always been stubborn, so I made myself a promise; as I had made the decision to start, I also decided not to quit, regardless of what happened. I wrote this down and have reminded myself of this constantly.
What's more, I entered this business with a willingness to learn. I was told in the beginning that if success was important to me, I would need to create a list of goals, my dream board and attend all events and meetings. That's something I've done from day one, even before I realised why it was so important.
Early on, I set myself the goal to become Ruby Executive – I was so excited and was sure I could make it happen fast, so, I quickly quit the job I had at the time. But, as often happens, things did not go as planned, and I had to go back to it. Not long after, I noticed growth in my organisation once again, and as I truly believed I would make it this time, I quit my job once more. I was disappointed when history repeated itself, and I was forced to find another.
After this I took some time to reflect on what I was doing wrong. It was never an issue with the business itself, with the products, nor with the team - it was me. I was not ready, and I did not have the mindset or commitment that I now know is required to succeed in this business. I was mostly focused on myself; my success, my sales, my partners, me, me, me. It did not work – this business is all about focusing on others.
In 2014, I quit the last job I've had to date, aside from Nu Skin. Again, I made the move from Norway to Australia, as this had always been my number one goal since starting out. This was it, I was doing it; I either had to make this work or go back to Norway once again and find another job. I knew deep down that this was simply not an option this time around. This time, I was going to make it. Slowly but steadily, things started happening. After countless "no's" and negative feedback from people who did not believe in me or the business, I was finally able to realise what I set out to do. In the end, what really changed things for me was finding my own methods of working through social media. Today, 6.5 years after I was first recognized as Executive, I have been recognized as Blue Diamond / Executive Brand Director. I am so incredibly grateful, and I am so glad I never gave up during the times it felt impossible and unattainable. If I had to do it all over again, I would; it's been worth every single hour of work.
My business began to really show results when I stopped focusing on myself. This is not about me, or you, but the people we talk to and their needs; both customers and partners. It's about putting others before yourself, facilitating, and leading the way with your own actions, so others can learn and copy; that is how we can help others to succeed. Lead by example. It's about working as a team, supporting each other, cheering for each other and believing, both in yourself and those in your team. It's about never giving up. Push through the tough times, because they will come! That's usually when someone gives up, unfortunately. Do not be the one who watches others reach their goals and forgets about their own – keep on going, you owe it to yourself, because it's after these periods the magic happens. Keep it up! Be willing to leave your comfort zone daily, and, remember to have fun! Never give up on your dreams!
I was given an important tip when I first started out; to write down what kind of person I was then, and what kind of person I wanted to be when I really succeeded. This has helped me keep my values. I want to continue being down to earth, to make others feel good, to spread good energy and be a force for good – essentially to use the opportunity I now have to help others and to give back. I love the values of the company. Every time I hear Sandie talking, I get goosebumps; they match incredibly well with my own. I am endlessly proud to be involved, and to include new people, in a company with such good values. I am grateful to our community and team. It is amazing how this business attracts positive, uplifting and ambitious people. "If what you do is not well meant or come from your heart - do not do it". This has given me so much more than just freedom. It has made me a better person – I take care of myself and others, and it has brought a new family into my life. Thank you, Nu Skin, for this!

LOS ANGELES — Beyonce became the most decorated female on a Grammy night as she collected six trophies, including song of the year for her anthem "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)," but it was another diva — Taylor Swift — who nabbed the top honor, album of the year, for her best-selling "Fearless."
Swift, who won a total of four awards, jumped around like the 20-year-old kid that she is when she beat out Beyonce, the Dave Matthews Band, Lady Gaga and the Black Eyed Peas for the honor.
"Oh wow — thank you so much! I just hope that you know how much this means to me ... that we get to take this back to Nashville," said Swift, whose "Fearless" was last year's best-selling album of any genre.
"Oh my God, our families are freaking out in their living rooms," she added. "My dad and my little brother are losing their minds in the living room right now."
Although Beyonce also lost out on record of the year, which went to the Kings of Leon's "Use Somebody," the entertainer still owned the most awards of the evening.
Video: Jackson's kids touch Grammys audience Beyonce, who in 2004 won five Grammys on the strength of her debut album, "Dangerously in Love" — a mark tied by the likes of Alicia Keys, Norah Jones and Lauryn Hill, Amy Winehouse and Alison Krauss — reached that milestone again Sunday en route to the new record. She is the first to reach that mark twice.
She shared the song of the year trophy with three writers for "Single Ladies" and also won best R&B contemporary album for "I Am ... Sasha Fierce."
"This has been such an amazing night for me and I'd love to thank the Grammys," Beyonce said after winning best female pop vocal for "Halo."
The Kings of Leon were a bit more entertaining when they picked up their record of the year trophy, the family quartet's third of the night.
"I'm not going to lie, we're all a little drunk. But we're happy drunks," said lead singer Caleb Followill.
Crowd goes gaga for Gaga
Lady Gaga won two Grammys during the pre-telecast ceremony but didn't get a chance to show her multitude of outrageous dresses during the primetime show, losing out on record, song and album of the year. But she made her presence felt when she kicked off the night with a sequined green leotard with massive shoulders as she sang her Grammy-nominated hit "Poker Face," then brought out Elton John as they melded her song "Speechless" and his classic "Your Song" together in a performance that featured dueling pianos, and glitter-painted faces.

Swift, who was second to Beyonce in Grammy nominations with eight nods, also won best country album among her other awards. The victory capped an amazing run for Swift, whose "Fearless" is only her second album. Her self-titled debut was a platinum success but "Fearless," with songs like "You Belong With Me," took her into the superstar stratosphere, as she won accolades across genres.
Another country act to take a top award was the Zac Brown Band, which won best new artist.
The Black Eyed Peas also had three trophies, as well as Jay-Z, who won for best rap solo performance and two awards for "Run This Town" with Rihanna and Kanye West.
Rihanna — who was forced to bow out of last year's awards as a performer after being assaulted by then-boyfriend Chris Brown, accepted the trophy along with Jay-Z and with Beyonce's young nephew in tow. West — who has kept a relatively low profile since his dustup with Swift a few months back — was a notable no-show.
Video: Ladies night at the Grammys Maxwell, up for six awards, also won his first Grammy — best R&B male vocal for the ballad "Pretty Wings" and best R&B album for "BLACKsummers' night." The album marked the R&B crooner's return after an absence of eight years from the music business.
Many participants in the program wore red cross buttons in support of Haiti earthquake relief. Mary J. Blige joined Andrea Bocelli in a rousing rendition of "Bridge Over Troubled Water," which was not only designed to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the song's big Grammy wins, but to raise money for the people in Haiti. The performance, introduced by Haitian native Wyclef Jean, will be available via iTunes.com/target, with the funds going to earthquake relief.
The show also included a special 3-D tribute to Michael Jackson featuring a video clip he made of "Earth Song" as Usher, Carrie Underwood, Celine Dion, Jennifer Hudson and Smokey Robinson sang along.
Jackson's young children, Prince and Paris, accepted a lifetime achievement award for their late father.
"Through all his songs his message was simple, love. We will continue to spread his message and help the world," Prince said.

Pope Benedict XVI's late November visit to Turkey showed how quickly and thoroughly he has grown into his new role. In particular, he demonstrated his determination to realize his potential as a peacemaker. That role seemed to be suggested by his adoption of the name Benedict, reminiscent of Pope Benedict XV, who labored in vain to end the First World War. Hopes for a pontificate of peacemaking seemed to be dashed, however, after this pope's September lecture in Regensburg, where his quotation of a medieval Byzantine emperor on the question of violence in Islam evoked violent protests. But Benedict worked quickly to remedy relations and to renew his program of interreligious peacemaking.
It was the measure of the man and his new team that they moved immediately to respond to public criticism, including meeting with Muslim leaders and pledging to keep his commitment to visit predominantly Muslim Turkey. I, at least, cannot remember a similar crisis in which the Vatican responded with such a quick and concentrated effort. When Buddhists were offended by Pope John Paul II's description of them as atheists, it took more than six months before a veiled retraction appeared.
In reaction to this crisis as well as to armed conflicts in Lebanon and elsewhere, Benedict put behind him the old saw about the Vatican moving at a pace of centuries. The successful visit to Turkey won over ordinary Turks, and Benedict's time with Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew moved the ecumenical dialogue with the Orthodox Church beyond the tensions that held back progress for the last decade and a half.
In redirecting Islamic relations, Benedict had to resist those in the Vatican and Catholic pundits close to it who were pushing, as John Allen of The National Catholic Reporter described it, a "hawkish," confrontational policy toward Islam, in contrast to the late John Paul II's "dovish" encouragement of interreligious dialogue. The critics were particularly disparaging about the three prayer events at Assisi for peace (1986, 1992, 2002), in which John Paul had convened world religious leaders in collective witness for peace. (Benedict was rumored to have been uneasy particularly about the first meeting and the confusion the "spirit of Assisi" generated about the practice of interreligious prayer.) No doubt there are shifts in the Vatican's Islamic policy, most notably the demand for "reciprocity"—that is, the granting of the same religious rights to Christians in Muslim countries that Muslims enjoy in Christian ones. But with his silent meditation facing Mecca, at Istanbul's Blue Mosque, Benedict put the hawkish policy proposals, and certainly rumors of his own discomfort, to rest.
In his annual message for the World Day of Peace on Jan. 1, Pope Benedict once again underscored the need for what he calls "a dialogue of cultures" "between the followers of different religions and between believers and nonbelievers," rooted in "the grammar written on human hearts by the divine Creator." Fundamental to procuring peace, he noted, are two values: respect for life and respect for religious freedom. The absence of peace is shown, he observed, in the way Christians and people of other faiths are prevented from "publicly and freely expressing their religious convictions."
The World Day of Peace message will disappoint those searching for a generally assertive Vatican attitude in world affairs, with more latitude for the use of armed force. The recent fighting in Lebanon, the pope observes, and the scourge of terrorism demand "that the international community reaffirm international humanitarian law and apply it to all present-day situations of armed conflict, including those not currently provided for by international law." The last phrase is a rejection in passing of the Bush administration's exemptions of so-called enemy combatants from the protections of the Geneva Conventions. The spirit of the conventions, as well as the letter, need to be observed. Likewise, Benedict contends the struggle against terrorism demands "careful reflection on the ethical limits restricting the use of modern methods of guaranteeing internal security."
Finally, the pope turns to the nuclear peril. "Unfortunately," he writes, "threatening clouds continue to gather on humanity's horizon. The way to ensure a future for everyone," he argues, "is found not only in international accords for the nonproliferation of nuclear weapons, but also in the determined commitment to seek their reduction and definitive dismantling." By stressing nuclear arms reduction and abolition, Pope Benedict places responsibility not just on non-nuclear and aspiring nuclear powers, like Iran, but on the admitted nuclear powers, like the United States, Russia and China, and the unadmitted ones, like Israel, to eliminate their nuclear arsenals. All in all, Benedict seems to be walking steadily along the peacemaking paths blazed by his predecessors.

Hernandez fiancee to ask judge to drop charges
FALL RIVER, Mass. >> The fiancee of former New England Patriots player Aaron Hernandez is set to ask a judge to throw out allegations that she lied to a grand jury.
Shayanna Jenkins is scheduled to appear before a Fall River Superior Court judge on Friday to seek dismissal of perjury charges against her. Prosecutors say she lied to a grand jury nearly 30 times during the investigation into the 2013 killing of Odin Lloyd, who was dating her sister.
Hernandez is charged with killing Lloyd. He's also separately charged with killing two men in Boston in 2012.
Jenkins' lawyers have argued in court papers that prosecutors set out to deliberately charge her with perjury, and that they failed to provide sufficient evidence to the grand jury.
Jenkins has pleaded not guilty.

"They look at the income potential of college students as graduates, not what they are currently making," explains Bruce McClary with Clearpoint Financial Solutions, one of the country's big non-profit credit counseling services.
What's good for the bank is not always good for the cardholder. Most students these days graduate with thousands of dollars in unpaid credit card bills.
"We do see a lot of college students who get in trouble with credit cards and it carries over to later in life," McClary said. "Well after college they are still struggling to get out from under that mountain of debt."
A study by Sallie Mae, a leading provider of student loans, found that college students are relying on credit cards more than ever. Based on its survey done in the spring of 2008, the average undergraduate at that time had credit card debt of $3,173. Half the students had four or more cards.
The study's authors conclude: "Many college students seem to use credit cards to live beyond their means — not just for convenience — and more than three-quarters incurred finance charges by carrying a monthly balance."
The Credit Card Accountability, Responsibility and Disclosure Act ( Credit CARD Act ) which took effect a few weeks ago, tries to deal with this problem.
"The act considers the poor practices that credit card companies use to entice students without allowing the students to realize the full consequences of having a card," says Yvonne Hubbard, director of Student Financial Services at the University of Virginia.
CARD greatly limits what banks can do to market their cards to anyone between the ages of 18 and 21, with added restrictions on how they treat college students. In many cases, parents will need to be involved in deciding whether their son or daughter gets a credit card before turn 21.
"I think it's really helpful to have an adult weigh in and be an influence on a kid under the age of 21 who is considering taking out a credit card," says Sally Greenberg, executive director of the National Consumers League. "This will ultimately help protect young people from getting in way over their heads with credit cards."
Can you pay the bills?
Before the CARD Act took effect on February 22, banks often gave 18-, 19- and 20-year-olds (especially college students) credit cards without considering if they could pay the bills. Those days are gone.
The new law says young people who don't have a good credit history (and most don't) must show their ability to make the monthly payments. That could be proof of employment — for students that can be a summer job or part-time work during the school year – investment income, alimony or public assistance.
Otherwise, they'll need a co-signer to get the card. That could be a mom or dad or any other adult willing to put themselves on the line.
"As a co-signer you are responsible for that debt even if your child defaults. It's their card, but you're the backup on it," explains Greg McBride, senior financial analyst with Bankrate.com. "You really need to think about this. If Junior defaults on those payments the card company is going to come after you and that can have a negative impact on your credit."
A slice of pizza for a credit card?
You probably wouldn't apply for a credit card in order to get a T-shirt, tote bag or a few slices of pizza.
But college kids will.
Banks have successfully used these freebie promotions on campus for years. The new law says a student cannot be required to fill out an application at a marketing table — on or near campus — in order to get a free gift.
"Take the T-shirt or the pizza and then walk away without the credit card application," advises Ed Mierzwinksi, director of consumer programs for U.S. PIRG. "They can no longer require you to fill out a credit card application to get a free piece of pizza. They never should have been allowed to in the first place, but they got away with it."
Financial literacy is needed
The Sallie Mae study found that one in three students rarely or never discuss credit cards with their parents. Nearly all undergraduates said they would like more information on financial management topics.
Curtis Arnold, founder of CardRatings.com, believes this is critically important. He supports government action to protect college students from predatory lending practices, but believes education and parental involvement are better than any regulation. Arnold, who had $45,000 in credit card debt when he finished graduate school, uses himself as an example when he talks about financial literacy on campus.
His son, Dallas Tompkins, 19, attends Hendrix College in Arkansas. Dallas would like a credit card, but he doesn't have one.
"We know he's not ready," Arnold tells me. "If he proves that he can be responsible with his debit card, then we'll co-sign a credit card with him."
The bottom line
The CARD Act will make it more difficult for some responsible young people to get a credit card and establish a credit history until they are 21. Because of that, they could find it harder or more expensive to rent an apartment, buy a car or get insurance.
Hopefully it will keep many 18-, 19- and 20-year-olds from digging themselves into a hole very early in life. Signing up for a credit card is not something that should be done in order to grab some pizza while racing to class. It an important decision with significant ramifications that needs to be thoughtfully considered.
The new law calls on colleges and universities to do a better job of educating their students about managing credit and the consequences of debt. Financial planning experts say parents need to do the same thing – and well before their kids go to college.

World Bulletin / News Desk
U.S. Senate Democrats are likely to introduce a bill this week to raise government borrowing authority by enough to last through 2014, a Senate Democratic aide said on Tuesday.
While the initiative must still be discussed among Senate Democrats at a lunchtime meeting, the aide said the likely measure would not contain any deficit reductions that Republicans have been insisting upon.
The aide also said Democrats are hopeful they can get the support of the six Republicans needed for 60 total votes to overcome procedural hurdles in the 100-member Senate.

Marine Detail
The State Police maintains boat patrols in Troops B, D, E, F, G, K, L and T. Troopers assigned to marine duties patrol waterways throughout the state from early spring to late fall, enforcing the Navigation Law, Canal Rules & Regulations and Environmental Conservation Laws, assisting boaters in distress, providing search and rescue services and water security at regattas, hydroplane races and other water-related events.
During the boating season, Troop B patrolled the St. Lawrence River, Lake Champlain and other smaller lakes in the Adirondacks, while Troop D provided two patrols on the St. Lawrence River at Alexandria Bay, a heavily used recreational and commercial waterway. Troops B and D enhanced security on the state's border by providing additional patrols on the St. Lawrence, working closely with the United States Coast Guard, Border Patrol and Customs officials.
Elsewhere, Troop E patrolled portions of Lake Ontario and the Finger Lakes, Troops F and K covered the Hudson River, and Troop G deployed boats on Lake George, Saratoga Lake and the Great Sacandaga Lake. Troop L patrolled areas of Long Island Sound around Fishers Island. Troop T deployed four boats along the 525- mile state Canal System that includes the Mohawk, Hudson, Oswego, Seneca, Genesee and Niagara Rivers, as well as Oneida, Onondaga, Cross, Seneca and Cayuga Lakes. Troop T continued to use personal watercraft (PWCs), popularly known as jet skis, for specialized and general patrol duties, and for specialized education and enforcement efforts.

An Instrument in Thy Hands
1. As Alma yearned in ancient days,
I, too, desire to be
An instrument in thy hands, O Lord,
In bringing souls to thee.
An instrument in thy hands, O Lord!
A tool of strength and worth.
An instrument in thy hands, O Lord!
In building thy kingdom on earth.
2. So purge, refine, and purify,
And tame my willful heart
That I may be fit to serve thee well,
And sacred truths impart.
3. And may thy Spirit's holy power
Be always close to me.
May thy work be my work ev'ry hour
In bringing souls to thee.

Watch "Fareed Zakaria GPS," Sundays at 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. ET on CNN
By Fareed Zakaria
When television host Bill Maher declares on his weekly show that "the Muslim world...has too much in common with ISIS," and the author, Sam Harris (a guest on his show) concurs, arguing that "Islam is the mother lode of bad ideas," I understand why people get upset. Maher and Harris made crude simplifications and exaggerations.
And yet, they were also talking about something real. I know all the arguments against speaking of Islam as violent and reactionary. It is a vast world of 1.6 billion people. Places such as Indonesia and India have hundreds of millions of Muslims who don't fit these caricatures. That's why Maher and Harris are guilty of simplification and exaggeration.
But let's be honest: Islam has a problem today...There is a cancer of extremism within Islam today. A small minority of Muslims celebrate violence and intolerance, and harbor deeply reactionary attitudes towards women and minorities. And while some moderates confront these extremists, not enough do so and the protests are not loud enough. How many mass rallies have been held against ISIS in the Arab world today?
But now the caveat, Islam today, is important.
Watch the video for the full Take or read the WaPo column.
Islam does not have problem, muslims of nowadays are the problem to islam, by not following the textual meaning of the holy quran and the real sunnah of our prophet PBUH,
Fareed, PLEASE have Sam Harris on your show as a guest, with at least one topic being his take on Islam and Muslims. I was dismayed to hear you say he is making crude simplifications and exaggerations, while taking one soundbite "motherlode of bad ideas" without its context. I value your nuanced intellect in many matters, but you completely missed Sam's vary nuanced and clearly stated views that precisely do NOT oversimplify or exaggerate. In doing so, you intentionally or unintentionally "piled on" to a political correctness-motivated movement to discredit and demonize him. In fairness to Sam and to your viewers, you owe him the opportunity to set the record straight. I suspect the two of you would generally agree on a great deal.
If we continue to see terrorism in the name of Islam, like the hostage situation in Sydney or ISIS beheadings, there will eventually come a reckoning in terms of someone pressing the big RESET BUTTON on the human race. There is no doubt that Christians, Jews and Muslims have all, at one time or another in history, been Gold Medal Winners in the Oppression Olympics. That being said, in a world of 7 billion+ people, it is important to understand the ability of one or a small number of individuals to destroy an increasingly fragile world. If the followers of Islam do not utterly condemn all forms of terrorism and learn to reign in their ideology to allow others to exist peacefully, they may, by either their overt actions, omissions and/or apathy bring about not only their own end but also the end of the human race. Nuclear weapons do not discriminate. People who suffer repeated humiliation and oppression will eventually retaliate - even to the point of destroying themselves. When people have nothing left to lose, they "lose it." When you cut off enough heads, rest assured that someone will eventually see to it that yours (and all of your family) is next. (Google "The Religion of Peace" ) (Google "Howard Bloom The Mohammed Code" ) (Google "Evelin Lindner Human Dignity and Humiliation Studies")
Wait a minute, governments bomb millions of people, first, then when they kill 10 or less, you call them terrorist? Was killing millions of them and their family making friends with them?
That is the very best search engine in the planet

Those who watched this week's episode of The Office caught the vicious duel between Andy Bernard and Dwight Schrute, utilizing a mace and a Toyota Prius. Who won?
We've already identified the Prius as the Silent Killer but, up to this point, this has only been used as an accidental weapon. Props to Andy for proving the offensive capabilities of a Prius by sneaking up on his foe. You can't do that in an IROC Camaro.

Mullein, Cedar and Tangerine Peel: Simple Tea for the Lungs
Sometimes simple is good A few months ago, I experienced a lingering cough after an case of influenza. When it was a stronger, more irritating cough, I treated it aggressively with Planetary Formulas' Old Indian Wild Cherry Syrup (plus other things). It's strong stuff, but when I have had bronchial infections it has historically helped so much that I go straight to it. After the worst of the cough was gone, I reached for a tea of three simple herbs which are easy to harvest and created a tea general tea for the lungs that's quite delicious. Three Herb Tea for Promoting General Lung Function Mullein – Verbascum thapsus. Red Cedar –Thuja plicata. Dried Tangerine Peel – Citrus tangerina.

Google Glass features unveiled in preview video
- Published
Fresh details about Google's eagerly-anticipated smart glasses have been released by the company.
A YouTube video uploaded by the company shows Google Glass in action - including the interface which appears in the wearer's line of sight.
The search giant has also opened up the trial of the product to "creative individuals" and developers.
Google co-founder Sergey Brin was recently spotted on New York's subway testing the device.
The product was first unveiled as part of a demonstration at a Google launch event last year where developers were offered early access to the device for $1,500.
The company is now inviting people in the US to use the hashtag #ifihadglass to suggest ways they would make use of the headset.
"We're looking for bold, creative individuals who want to join us and be a part of shaping the future of Glass," Google said.
"We're still in the early stages and, while we can't promise everything will be perfect, we can promise it will be exciting."
'OK, Glass'
The demo video showed how Glass can be used to take pictures and record video, as well as share content directly via email or social networks.
Voice commands such as "OK, Glass, take a picture" were used to control the device.
Other features appeared to include Skype-like video chats, and other related information such as weather reports and map directions.
All of this information appeared in a small, translucent square in the top right of the wearer's field of vision.
The display is considerably less intrusive than previously published concept videos.
Wearable technology is seen as a major growth area for hardware makers in 2013 and beyond.
In 2008, Apple patented a laser-based "head mounted display system" that it suggested could stream video from its iPod, among other features.
Other patents obtained by Sony and Microsoft allow for creation of miniature displays to go over users' eyes.
Oakley recently launched Airwave - ski goggles with built-in sensors which provide information on an in-built screen about an owner's speed, the size of their jumps and what music they are listening to.
Away from the head, the newly released Pebble watch links directly to a smartphone - a concept Apple is also rumoured to be working on.

Sacramento police have not filed charges against Mendocino County Deputy District Attorney Damon Gardner, who reportedly shot and wounded another man during an early-morning fight Oct. 17 outside a Sacramento hotel, according to authorities.
Gardner, 38, is on unpaid administrative leave while the Sacramento Police Department investigates the incident and the Mendocino County DA"s Office conducts an internal affairs investigation.
"It"s still an ongoing investigation," said SPD spokesman officer Doug Morse. "We have not completed it yet, and we have not submitted it to the District Attorney"s Office."
The Sacramento District Attorney"s Office confirmed Wednesday that it had not yet received any information on the case from the SPD.
"It"s just the nature of the investigation," Morse said of the length of time it has taken so far, calling the time frame "extremely typical" for this type of case.
Morse said part of the department"s investigation is Gardner"s license to carry a concealed weapon, and a term it carries that the license isn"t valid if the carrier is under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
"We have information to believe alcohol was involved with all parties," Morse said.
No arrests have been made in the incident, according to the SPD, which began when Gardner, 38, and a female friend were walking and met two men outside a hotel on 15th and L streets near the state capitol at 12:24 a.m. Oct. 17.
Words were exchanged and the fight became physical, Morse reported previously. Gardner and one of the men were grappling on the ground when Gardner drew his 0.38-caliber Ruger pistol, the Mendocino County District Attorney"s Office reported the day after the incident.
Gardner fired once and hit the other man"s upper body, and told police he did so in self-defense, Morse stated previously.
Gardner had been out of the office on medical leave since mid-August, according to the Mendocino County District Attorney"s Office, and was in Sacramento on personal business. Gardner has worked for the Mendocino County District Attorney"s Office for seven years.
