Leading analog IC designer adopts ultra low power ARM Cortex-M0 processor
CAMBRIDGE, UK — October 20, 2009 — ARM [(LSE: ARM); (Nasdaq: ARMH)] have announced that austriamicrosystems, a leading global designer and manufacturer of high performance analog ICs for automotive, communication, industry and medical applications, has licensed the ARM® Cortex™-M0 processor for future custom ASIC solutions.
austriamicrosystems supplies ICs to a broad range of applications including automotive electronic stability programs (ESP), battery management and keyless go systems as well as mobile phones, portable audio/ video players, industrial sensor interfaces and a wide range of other applications.
"The ultra low power and gate count of the Cortex-M0 processor, combined with its 32-bit performance efficiency, makes it an ideal choice for analog mixed signal sensor applications," said Mario Manninger, Director of Engineering, Consumer & Communications Business Unit, austriamicrosystems. "This upgrade from our previous 8051-based solutions will enable us to deliver a competitive advantage in the energy efficiency and cost effectiveness of our products."
"Analog and mixed signal applications represent a relatively new market for ARM, so it is very encouraging that leading device designers like austriamicrosystems are adopting the Cortex-M0 processor for their future designs," said Eric Schorn, VP marketing, Processor Division, ARM. "The suitability of the Cortex-M0 processor for these applications, combined with the broad ecosystem of silicon, tools, software and middleware vendors, makes it an ideal choice for companies who are looking to move on from 8 or 16-bit technology to achieve higher performance without sacrificing area or low power consumption."
The Cortex-M0 processor is the lowest power and smallest 32-bit ARM processor. It offers an optimal blend of ultra low-power, energy-efficiency and low gate count, with binary upwards compatibility with the higher performance ARM Cortex-M3 processor. This makes it an ideal next step for embedded applications that outgrow legacy 8-bit microcontrollers, skipping the need for 16-bit devices.

Charizard Chills (リザードン!きみにきめた!! Charizard! I Choose You!!) is the 25th episode of Pokémon: Adventures in the Orange Islands.
The gang meets Tad, an experienced Pokémon trainer. Tad uses his Poliwrath and puts Pikachu to sleep. Ash sends Charizard, but due to its disobedience, Charizard does not listen to Ash. Due to this, Poliwrath manages to freeze it using Ice Beam. Ash attempts to get it warmer, which causes Charizard to gain some respect for its master. When Team Rocket appear, they take Pikachu, but Charizard and Ash stand together, causing Charizard to gain new power!
Episode plot
As the heroes ride Lapras, a boat speeds up. A man shows up and Misty tells to apologize to Togepi, as he could've hurt it. The man apologizes, as it makes Misty's face look like a Tentacruel, while Misty wishes she could be pretty like it. The man recognizes Ash as one who got the badge from Trovita Island. The man tells that he wants to get in the Orange League and heard Rudy telling him Ash used pure power to win. Misty tells Ash he has luck instead of skill, but he responds to her he won three badges. Tad tells he likes strong challengers and wants Ash to battle him. Ash accepts and they go to a nearby island to battle. Team Rocket make a robot and Meowth sees a boat with twerps on it.
Ash sends Pikachu and to Ash's surprise, Tad sends Poliwrath. Misty sees Poliwrath has a belt. Tad tells he defeated the trainers back home and won the Championship. Tracey warns Ash this might be a trick. Pikachu starts with Thunderbolt, but Poliwrath surrounds Pikachu with Double Team. Pikachu hops and banishes the illusions, using Thunderbolt to electrocute Poliwrath. Poliwrath uses Hypnosis, putting Pikachu to sleep, defeating him using Water Gun. Misty and Tracey see Tad is experienced to let Ash use Pikachu's energy first, then putting it to sleep. Tad says it is not a challenge to match the type advantages, but it is the surprise that can turn the tide of battle. Ash tells if he likes surprises, he will send his secret weapon. Misty and Tracey are worried as Ash sends Charizard.
Misty and Tracey see everything is over. Ash is confident Charizard will listen, but gets burned by it. Tad and Poliwrath are surprised, as Charizard is not trained. Charizard flies off. Tad tells that Charizard may be powerful, but it is not controllable and Ash will not get in the League with a Pokémon like that. Tad tells this is pathetic, as Poliwrath uses Water Gun. Charizard sees this is trouble and comes to the field. Ash tells Charizard they should battle, but Charizard looks to him and stomps, causing Ash to fall down and evading his attack. Ash asks it why can they battle as friends. Charizard disobeys and uses Flamethrower, but Poliwrath seems not to be affected. Charizard uses Flamethrower, but flies away when Poliwrath missed it using Water Gun. Ash orders it to use Mega Punch, but it uses Flamethrower, which gets intercepted by Water Gun. Charizard continues to use Flamethrower (despite Ash's warning), but gets its tail attacked by Water Gun. With an Ice Beam, Charizard gets frozen and falls down.
Ash gets terrified and promises to get Charizard out, using a rock to smash the ice. Tad calls Poliwrath back. Charizard gets its head freed, but its body is still frozen. Tad tells Ash he will be glad to have a rematch... if he controls "that thing". Team Rocket saw the battle and fell how it is to lose. Meowth sees they will be here, so they need to conduct the plan. Later, Ash rubs Charizard to get it warmer, but fails. Pikachu points at his hands and Ash sees they are red. Ash is not bothered and tells Pikachu to rest, but Pikachu does not want to and helps Ash to get Charizard warmer. Charizard fells what is going on and gets upset. Misty and Tracey appear and Misty tries to help Ash, but Tracey stops her. Ash tries to calm it down, but Charizard suddenly stops and falls down.
To get it warmer, Ash rubs his hands on Charizard, while Tracey goes to get more wood and Misty goes to get a blanket. Ash sees Charizard smiling a bit and Misty wraps Charizard with a blanket, telling Ash he'll be faster by rubbing with it. Ash tells that as long as Charizard gets better faster, everything should be good. Misty went to sleep while Ash and Tracey rub Charizard. Tracey fells Charizard is warmer, but Ash does not want to get the flame on its tail doused out. Charizard wakes up and goes to use a move, but it is still cold. Ash warns it must rest and after that he can even use Flamethrower on him. Misty sees Charizard is getting better, but throws in more wood in the campfire. Ash tells Charizard he may not be the greatest trainer and makes a lot of mistakes, but does his best and knows he is getting better. Ash wants Charizard to understand that he wants to be a good enough trainer to have a battle side by side.
Charizard remembers his memories with Ash. Pikachu sees the flame on its tail is getting bigger. The heroes rub Charizard, though everyone gets exhausted a bit. During the morning, Charizard wakes up and sees Ash on his back asleep. Charizard stood up and shows the heroes the flame on its tail - bright as it should be. Suddenly, the earth shakes. Tad sees there is trouble. Pikachu falls in Team Rocket's trap, who gets imprisoned in an electric-proof room. Team Rocket dig in, so Ash runs to get them. Charizard accompanies him and they go in the tunnel. Team Rocket are happy their plan works, but get stopped by Charizard. Charizard goes to use Flamethrower, but Ash warns him he'll burn Pikachu. Instead, Charizard kicks the drill and gets Pikachu out. Team Rocket use the buzzsaw and while Charizard dodges, Ash and Pikachu fell down, unconscious.
Charizard sees them unconscious and gets enraged. Ash and Pikachu wake up and see Charizard becoming stronger. Charizard uses Rage and blasts Team Rocket off. Tad, Misty and Tracey arrive and see what happened, pleased Charizard is on Ash's side. Ash believes Charizard and him will be a team. Tad congratulates them and offers a rematch. Ash and Charizard accept, with Tad sending Poliwrath. Poliwrath uses Water Gun, but Charizard flies off. Tad sees that Charizard listens to Ash, but it won't be enough to defeat Poliwrath. Ash responds they'll see about that, as Charizard uses Ember. Poliwrath spins and uses Water Gun, extinguishing fire. Charizard goes to take down Poliwrath. Poliwrath uses Mega Kick, but Charizard stops it. Poliwrath uses Ice Beam and misses, as Charizard flies off. Poliwrath goes to use Body Slam, but Charizard spins to distract it, then gets it and uses Seismic Toss, defeating Poliwrath in an instant.
Ash thanks Charizard and hugs it. Tad congratulates Ash and hopes they'll battle in the Orange League. Ash wishes that, too, and they shake hands. The heroes wave goodbye to Tad, who goes on the ship away. Ash thinks he'll defeat anyone and pushes Charizard (friendly) away. Charizard funnily uses Flamethrower on them, teasing them as they goes. Tracey and Misty ask of Ash to control Charizard, but Ash tells he can take the heat.
- "I'll be glad to have a rematch with you Ash, when you finally learn how to tame that thing." - Tad
- "We've been together since you were Charmander and then when you evolved into Charmeleon and all I want to do is to be good enough for you so we can battle side by side, as a team." - Ash
- (Regarding Charizard) "It's still cold!"-Misty
- "Who's that Pokémon?:" Tad's Poliwrath (JP), Caterpie (US), Charizard (Canada)
- This episode is the season finale of Season 2.
- This episode uses clips from past episodes to form a montage of Charizard when it was a Charmander and then evolved to a Charmeleon and again into Charizard.
- When Charizard is preparing to use Dragon Rage on Team Rocket, Ash is without his jacket and hat. However, when the scene cuts back to him after Team Rocket blasts off, Ash wears them.
- When Tad explained how Rudy told that Ash used pure power to win, Tracey's band was discolored pink.
- Though it was told Charizard learned Rage, it is in "Enter The Dragonite" that Charizard learned Dragon Rage.
- When Charizard destroys Team Rocket's drill, Ash is no longer on his back for a few seconds.

I was sad to read in colleague Irene Kraft's Retail Watch column that South Whitehall's Mangos Coastal Cuisine closed Nov. 17.
The restaurant dished up an interesting mix of foods from coastal regions such as Hawaii, Mexico, the Caribbean and the Mediterranean. I liked its ambition.
I took coworkers there several years ago to celebrate winning a national award, and we had a great meal.
Where else in the Lehigh Valley would you find on the same menu: paella, carmelized pineapple tilapia, quesadillas and crunchy fried tomatillos?
And its decor had a fun island vibe that included an interior courtyard and ceiling fans.
Owner John Pena told Kraft that his family has other plans for the property, but wasn't yet ready to discuss them.

Ek lig 'n paar dele hieruit wat nie kan sin maak nie, sal die wyses dit aan my verduidelik asseblief.
Chapter 1
Chapter 2Enochs encounter with the two angels of God
1There was a wise man, a great artificer, and the Lord conceived love for him and received him, that he should behold the uppermost dwellings and be an eye-witness of the wise and great and inconceivable and immutable realm of God Almighty, of the very wonderful and glorious and bright and many-eyed station of the Lords servants, and of the inaccessible throne of the Lord, and of the degrees and manifestations of the incorporeal hosts, and of the ineffable ministration of the multitude of the elements, and of the various apparition and inexpressible singing of the host of Cherubim, and of the boundless light.
2At that time, he said, when my one hundred and sixty-fifth year was completed, I begat my son Mathusal.
3After this too I lived two hundred years and completed of all the years of my life three hundred and sixty-five years.
4On the first day of the month I was in my house alone and was resting on my bed and slept.
5And when I was asleep, great distress came up into my heart, and I was weeping with my eyes in sleep, and I could not understand what this distress was, or what would happen to me.
6And there appeared to me two men, exceeding big, so that I never saw such on earth; their faces were shining like the sun, their eyes too were like a burning light, and from their lips was fire coming forth with clothing and singing of various kinds in appearance purple, their wings were brighter than gold, their hands whiter than snow.
7They were standing at the head of my bed and began to call me by my name.
8And I arose from my sleep and saw clearly those two men standing in front of me.
9And I saluted them and was seized with fear and the appearance of my face was changed from terror, and those men said to me:
10Have courage, Enoch, do not fear; the eternal God sent us to you, and lo! You shalt to-day ascend with us into heaven, and you shall tell your sons and all your household all that they shall do without you on earth in your house, and let no one seek you till the Lord return you to them.
11And I made haste to obey them and went out from my house, and made to the doors, as it was ordered me, and summoned my sons Mathusal and Regim and Gaidad and made known to them all the marvels those men had told me.
Chapter 3The instruction of Enoch to his sons
1Listen to me, my children, I know not whither I go, or what will befall me; now therefore, my children, I tell you: turn not from God before the face of the vain, who made not Heaven and earth, for these shall perish and those who worship them, and may the Lord make confident your hearts in the fear of him. And now, my children, let no one think to seek me, until the Lord return me to you.
Chapter 4Of Enoch's assumption; how the angels took him into the first heaven
1It came to pass, when Enoch had told his sons, that the angels took him on to their wings and bore him up on to the first heaven and placed him on the clouds. And there I looked, and again I looked higher, and saw the ether, and they placed me on the first heaven and showed me a very great Sea, greater than the earthly sea.
Of the angels ruling the stars
1They brought before my face the elders and rulers of the stellar orders, and showed me two hundred angels, who rule the stars and their services to the heavens, and fly with their wings and come round all those who sail.
(volgens navorsing is dit die getal engele wat geval het van die hemel)
Chapter 5
Of how the angels keep the store-houses of the snow
Chapter 61And here I looked down and saw the treasure-houses of the snow, and the angels who keep their terrible store-houses, and the clouds whence they come out and into which they go.
Chapter 7Of the dew and of the olive-oil, and various flowers
1They showed me the treasure-house of the dew, like oil of the olive, and the appearance of its form, as of all the flowers of the earth; further many angels guarding the treasure-houses of these things, and how they are made to shut and open.
Chapter 8Of how Enoch was taken on to the second heaven
1And those men took me and led me up on to the second heaven, and showed me darkness, greater than earthly darkness, and there I saw prisoners hanging, watched, awaiting the great and boundless judgment, and these angels were dark-looking, more than earthly darkness, and incessantly making weeping through all hours.
2And I said to the men who were with me: Wherefore are these incessantly tortured? They answered me: These are Gods apostates, who obeyed not Gods commands, but took counsel with their own will, and turned away with their prince, who also is fastened on the fifth heaven.
3And I felt great pity for them, and they saluted me, and said to me: Man of God, pray for us to the Lord; and I answered to them: Who am I, a mortal man, that I should pray for angels? Who knows whither I go, or what will befall me? Or who will pray for me?
Of the assumption of Enoch to the third heaven
1And those men took me thence, and led me up on to the third heaven, and placed me there; and I looked downwards, and saw the produce of these places, such as has never been known for goodness.
2And I saw all the sweet-flowering trees and beheld their fruits, which were sweet-smelling, and all the foods borne by them bubbling with fragrant exhalation.
3And in the midst of the trees that of life, in that place whereon the Lord rests, when he goes up into paradise; and this tree is of ineffable goodness and fragrance, and adorned more than every existing thing; and on all sides it is in form gold-looking and vermilion and fire-like and covers all, and it has produce from all fruits.
4Its root is in the garden at the earths end.
5And paradise is between corruptibility and incorruptibility.
6And two springs come out which send forth honey and milk, and their springs send forth oil and wine, and they separate into four parts, and go round with quiet course, and go down into the PARADISE OF EDEN, between corruptibility and incorruptibility.
7And thence they go forth along the earth, and have a revolution to their circle even as other elements.
8And here there is no unfruitful tree, and every place is blessed.
9And there are three hundred angels very bright, who keep the garden, and with incessant sweet singing and never-silent voices serve the Lord throughout all days and hours.
10And I said: How very sweet is this place, and those men said to me:
(verstaan ek nou reg hul sê God is in die derde hemel -op die einde van die aarde, wat rond is?)
Chapter 9
The showing to Enoch of the place of the righteous and compassionate
1This place, O Enoch, is prepared for the righteous, who endure all manner of offence from those that exasperate their souls, who avert their eyes from iniquity, and make righteous judgment, and give bread to the hungering, and cover the naked with clothing, and raise up the fallen, and help injured orphans, and who walk without fault before the face of the Lord, and serve him alone, and for them is prepared this place for eternal inheritance.
(die bybel sê dan daar is nie een wat goed doen nie, selfs nie een nie)
Chapter 10
Here they showed Enoch the terrible place and various tortures
1And those two men led me up on to the Northern side, and showed me there a very terrible place, and there were all manner of tortures in that place: cruel darkness and unillumined gloom, and there is no light there, but murky fire constantly flaming aloft, and there is a fiery river coming forth, and that whole place is everywhere fire, and everywhere there is frost and ice, thirst and shivering, while the bonds are very cruel, and the angels fearful and merciless, bearing angry weapons, merciless torture, and I said:
2Woe, woe, how very terrible is this place.
3And those men said to me: This place, O Enoch, is prepared for those who dishonour God, who on earth practice sin against nature, which is child-corruption after the sodomitic fashion, magic-making, enchantments and devilish witchcrafts, and who boast of their wicked deeds, stealing, lies, calumnies, envy, rancour, fornication, murder, and who, accursed, steal the souls of men, who, seeing the poor take away their goods and themselves wax rich, injuring them for other mens goods; who being able to satisfy the empty, made the hungering to die; being able to clothe, stripped the naked; and who knew not their creator, and bowed to the soulless and lifeless gods, who cannot see nor hear, vain gods, who also built hewn images and bow down to unclean handiwork, for all these is prepared this place among these, for eternal inheritance.
(jo torturing engele, dis 'n eerste keer wat ek dit hoor, ook sondig teen die natuur, maar bokke word in die veld gelos om dood te brand byvoorbeeld)
Chapter 11
Here they took Enoch up on to the fourth heaven where is the course of sun and moon
1Those men took me, and led me up on to the fourth heaven, and showed me all the successive goings, and all the rays of the light of sun and moon.
2And I measure their goings, and compared their light, and saw that the suns light is greater than the moons.
3Its circle and the wheels on which it goes always, like the wind going past with very marvellous speed, and day and night it has no rest.
4Its passage and return are accompanied by four great stars, and each star has under it a thousand stars, to the right of the suns wheel, and by four to the left, each having under it a thousand stars, altogether eight thousand, issuing with the sun continually.
5And by day fifteen myriads of angels attend it, and by night a thousand.
6And six-winged ones issue with the angels before the suns wheel into the fiery flames, and a hundred angels kindle the sun and set it alight.
(het hulle helse hiiteweerstand kleding aangehad, ek was onder die indruk God het die son gemaak, of is ek verkeerd)
Chapter 12
Of the very marvellous elements of the sun
1And I looked and saw other flying elements of the sun, whose names are Phoenixes and Chalkydri, marvellous and wonderful, with feet and tails in the form of a lion, and a crocodiles head, their appearance is empurpled, like the rainbow; their size is nine hundred measures, their wings are likehas twelve, and they attend and accompany the sun, bearing heat and dew, as it is ordered them from God. those of angels, each
2Thus the sun revolves and goes, and rises under the heaven, and its course goes under the earth with the light of its rays incessantly.
(nog nooit van dit gehoor nie!)
Chapter 13
Chapter 14The angels took Enoch and placed him in the east at the suns gates
1Those men bore me away to the east, and placed me at the suns gates, where the sun goes forth according to the regulation of the seasons and the circuit of the months of the whole year, and the number of the hours day and night.
2And I saw six gates open, each gate having sixty-one stadia and a quarter of one stadium, and I measured them truly, and understood their size to be so much, through which the sun goes forth, and goes to the west, and is made even, and rises throughout all the months, and turns back again from the six gates according to the succession of the seasons; thus the period of the whole year is finished after the returns of the four seasons.
Chapter 15They took Enoch to the west
1And again those men led me away to the western parts, and showed me six great gates open corresponding to the eastern gates, opposite to where the sun sets, according to the number of the days three hundred and sixty-five and a quarter.
2Thus again it goes down to the western gates, and draws away its light, the greatness of its brightness, under the earth; for since the crown of its shining is in heaven with the Lord, and guarded by four hundred angels, while the sun goes round on wheel under the earth, and stands seven great hours in night, and spends half its course under the earth, when it comes to the eastern approach in the eighth hour of the night, it brings its lights, and the crown of shining, and the sun flames forth more than fire.
Chapter 16The elements of the sun, the Phoenixes and Chalkydri broke into song
1Then the elements of the sun, called Phoenixes and Chalkydri break into song, therefore every bird flutters with its wings, rejoicing at the giver of light, and they broke into song at the command of the Lord.
2The giver of light comes to give brightness to the whole world, and the morning guard takes shape, which is the rays of the sun, and the sun of the earth goes out, and receives its brightness to light up the whole face of the earth, and they showed me this calculation of the suns going.
3And the gates which it enters, these are the great gates of the calculation of the hours of the year; for this reason the sun is a great creation, whose circuit lasts twenty-eight years, and begins again from the beginning.
They took Enoch and again placed him in the east at the course of the moon
1Those men showed me the other course, that of the moon, twelve great gates, crowned from west to east, by which the moon goes in and out of the customary times.
2It goes in at the first gate to the western places of the sun, by the first gates with thirty-one days exactly, by the second gates with thirty-one days exactly, by the third with thirty days exactly, by the fourth with thirty days exactly, by the fifth with thirty-one days exactly, by the sixth with thirty-one days exactly, by the seventh with thirty days exactly, by the eighth with thirty-one days perfectly, by the ninth with thirty-one days exactly, by the tenth with thirty days perfectly, by the eleventh with thirty-one days exactly, by the twelfth with twenty-eight days exactly.
3And it goes through the western gates in the order and number of the eastern, and accomplishes the three hundred and sixty-five and a quarter days of the solar year, while the lunar year has three hundred fifty-four, and there are wanting to it twelve days of the solar circle, which are the lunar epacts of the whole year.
4Thus, too, the great circle contains five hundred and thirty-two years.
5The quarter of a day is omitted for three years, the fourth fulfills it exactly.
6Therefore they are taken outside of heaven for three years and are not added to the number of days, because they change the time of the years to two new months towards completion, to two others towards diminution.
7And when the western gates are finished, it returns and goes to the eastern to the lights, and goes thus day and night about the heavenly circles, lower than all circles, swifter than the heavenly winds, and spirits and elements and angels flying; each angel has six wings.
8It has a sevenfold course in nineteen years.Chapter 17
(huh? so vinnig soos 'n f16)
Chapter 18Of the singings of the angels, which it is impossible to describe
1In the midst of the heavens I saw armed soldiers, serving the Lord, with tympana and organs, with incessant voice, with sweet voice, with sweet and incessant voice and various singing, which it is impossible to describe, and which astonishes every mind, so wonderful and marvellous is the singing of those angels, and I was delighted listening to it.
Of the taking of Enoch on to the fifth heaven
1The men took me on to the fifth heaven and placed me, and there I saw many and countless soldiers, called Grigori, of human appearance, and their size was greater than that of great giants and their faces withered, and the silence of their mouths perpetual, and their was no service on the fifth heaven, and I said to the men who were with me:
2Wherefore are these very withered and their faces melancholy, and their mouths silent, and wherefore is there no service on this heaven?
3And they said to me: These are the Grigori, who with their prince Satanail rejected the Lord of light, and after them are those who are held in great darkness on the second heaven, and three of them went down on to earth from the Lords throne, to the place Ermon, and broke through their vows on the shoulder of the hill Ermon and saw the daughters of men how good they are, and took to themselves wives, and befouled the earth with their deeds, who in all times of their age made lawlessness and mixing, and giants are born and marvellous big men and great enmity.
4And therefore God judged them with great judgment, and they weep for their brethren and they will be punished on the Lords great day.
5And I said to the Grigori: I saw your brethren and their works, and their great torments, and I prayed for them, but the Lord has condemned them to be under earth till the existing heaven and earth shall end for ever.
6And I said: Wherefore do you wait, brethren, and do not serve before the Lords face, and have not put your services before the Lords face, lest you anger your Lord utterly?
7And they listened to my admonition, and spoke to the four ranks in heaven, and lo! As I stood with those two men four trumpets trumpeted together with great voice, and the Grigori broke into song with one voice, and their voice went up before the Lord pitifully and affectingly.Chapter 19
(is dit nie volgens navorsing dat die Grigori saam met die fallen angels op aarde neergekom het saam met Licifer nie? wat maak die gevalle engele nog in die heme?)
Chapter 20Of the taking of Enoch to the sixth heaven
1And thence those men took me and bore me up on to the sixth heaven, and there I saw seven bands of angels, very bright and very glorious, and their faces shining more than the suns shining, glistening, and there is no difference in their faces, or behaviour, or manner of dress; and these make the orders, and learn the goings of the stars, and the alteration of the moon, or revolution of the sun, and the good government of the world.
2And when they see evildoing they make commandments and instruction, and sweet and loud singing, and all songs of praise.
3These are the archangels (1) who are above angels, measure all life in heaven and on earth, and the angels who are appointed over seasons and years, the angels who are over rivers and sea, and who are over the fruits of the earth, and the angels who are over every grass, giving food to all, to every living thing, and the angels who write all the souls of men, and all their deeds, and their lives before the Lords face; in their midst are six Phoenixes and six Cherubim and six six-winged ones continually with one voice singing one voice, and it is not possible to describe their singing, and they rejoice before the Lord at his footstool.
(1) Archangels. Or, "ruling angels."
Hence they took Enoch into the seventh heaven
1And those two men lifted me up thence on to the seventh heaven, and I saw there a very great light, and fiery troops of great archangels (2), incorporeal forces, and dominions, orders and governments, cherubim and seraphim, thrones and many-eyed ones, nine regiments, the Ioanit stations of light, and I became afraid, and began to tremble with great terror, and those men took me, and led me after them, and said to me:
(2) Archangels. Or, "chief angels."
2Have courage, Enoch, do not fear, and showed me the Lord from afar, sitting on His very high throne. For what is there on the tenth heaven, since the Lord dwells there?
3On the tenth heaven is God, in the Hebrew tongue he is called Aravat (3).
(3) Aravat. Or, "Father of creation."
4And all the heavenly troops would come and stand on the ten steps according to their rank, and would bow down to the Lord, and would again go to their places in joy and felicity, singing songs in the boundless light with small and tender voices, gloriously serving him.(het hulle nie gesê God is in die derde hemel vroeër nie?)
Chapter 21
Chapter 22Of how the angels here left Enoch, at the end of the seventh heaven, and went away from him unseen
1And the cherubim and seraphim standing about the throne, the six-winged and many-eyed ones do not depart, standing before the Lords face doing his will, and cover his whole throne, singing with gentle voice before the Lords face: Holy, holy, holy, Lord Ruler of Sabaoth, heavens and earth are full of Your glory.
2When I saw all these things, those men said to me: Enoch, thus far is it commanded us to journey with you, and those men went away from me and thereupon I saw them not.
3And I remained alone at the end of the seventh heaven and became afraid, and fell on my face and said to myself: Woe is me, what has befallen me?
4And the Lord sent one of his glorious ones, the archangel (4) Gabriel, and he said to me: Have courage, Enoch, do not fear, arise before the Lords face into eternity, arise, come with me.
(4) Archangel. Or, "one of the seven highest angels, named Gabriel."
5And I answered him, and said in myself: My Lord, my soul is departed from me, from terror and trembling, and I called to the men who led me up to this place, on them I relied, and it is with them I go before the Lords face.
6And Gabriel caught me up, as a leaf caught up by the wind, and placed me before the Lords face.
7And I saw the eighth heaven, which is called in the Hebrew tongue Muzaloth, changer of the seasons, of drought, and of wet, and of the twelve constellations of the circle of the firmament, which are above the seventh heaven.
8And I saw the ninth heaven, which is called in Hebrew Kuchavim, where are the heavenly homes of the twelve constellations of the circle of the firmament. (en dit is?)
In the tenth heaven the archangel Michael led Enoch to before the Lords face
1On the tenth heaven, which is called Aravoth, I saw the appearance of the Lords face, like iron made to glow in fire, and brought out, emitting sparks, and it burns.
2Thus in a moment of eternity I saw the Lords face, but the Lords face is ineffable, marvellous and very awful, and very, very terrible.
3And who am I to tell of the Lords unspeakable being, and of his very wonderful face? And I cannot tell the quantity of his many instructions, and various voices, the Lord's throne is very great and not made with hands, nor the quantity of those standing round him, troops of cherubim and seraphim, nor their incessant singing, nor his immutable beauty, and who shall tell of the ineffable greatness of his glory.
4And I fell prone and bowed down to the Lord, and the Lord with his lips said to me:
5Have courage, Enoch, do not fear, arise and stand before my face into eternity.
6And the archistratege (5) Michael lifted me up, and led me to before the Lords face.
(5) Archistratege. Or, "the commander of the armies of the nations, named Michael."
7And the Lord said to his servants tempting them: Let Enoch stand before my face into eternity, and the glorious ones bowed down to the Lord, and said: Let Enoch go according to Your word.
8And the Lord said to Michael: Go and take Enoch from out of his earthly garments, and anoint him with my sweet ointment, and put him into the garments of My glory.
9And Michael did thus, as the Lord told him. He anointed me, and dressed me, and the appearance of that ointment is more than the great light, and his ointment is like sweet dew, and its smell mild, shining like the suns ray, and I looked at myself, and I was like one of his glorious ones (6).
(6) Glorious ones. Or, "one of the seven highest angels."
10And the Lord summoned one of his archangels by name Pravuil, whose knowledge was quicker in wisdom than the other archangels, who wrote all the deeds of the Lord; and the Lord said to Pravuil: Bring out the books from my store-houses, and a reed of quick-writing, and give it to Enoch, and deliver to him the choice and comforting books out of your hand.
(ek weet nie eers wat om te sê daaroor nie, soos ek verstaan van die bybel is daar geen sprake dat God aangesig tot aangesig verskyn het aan hom nie, in teen deel volgens die bybel aan wie het God aangesig tot aangesig verskyn?)
Chapter 23
Of Enochs writing, how he wrote his wonderful jouneyings and the heavenly hosts and himself wrote three hundred and sixty-six books
1And he was telling me all the works of heaven, earth and sea, and all the elements, their passages and goings, and the thunderings of the thunders, the sun and moon, the goings and changes of the stars, the seasons, years, days, and hours, the risings of the wind, the numbers of the angels, and the formation of their songs, and all human things, the tongue of every human song and life, the commandments, instructions, and sweet-voiced singings, and all things that it is fitting to learn.
2And Pravuil told me: All the things that I have told you, we have written. Sit and write all the souls of mankind, however many of them are born, and the places prepared for them to eternity; for all souls are prepared to eternity, before the formation of the world.
3And all double thirty days and thirty nights, and I wrote out all things exactly, and wrote three hundred and sixty-six books.
Chapter 24
Of the great secrets of God, which God revealed and told Enoch, and spoke with him face to face
1And the Lord summoned me, and said to me: Enoch, sit down on my left with Gabriel.
2And I bowed down to the Lord, and the Lord spoke to me: Enoch, beloved, all that you see, all things that are standing finished I tell to you even before the very beginning, all that I created from non-being, and visible things from invisible.
3Hear, Enoch, and take in these my words, for not to My angels have I told my secret, and I have not told them their rise, nor my endless realm, nor have they understood my creating, which I tell you to-day.
4For before all things were visible, I alone used to go about in the invisible things, like the sun from east to west, and from west to east.
5But even the sun has peace in itself, while I found no peace, because I was creating all things, and I conceived the thought of placing foundations, and of creating visible creation.
(Staan daar nie in Genesis 1 met die skeppingsverhaal dat God alles goed gevind het en tevrede was met Sy skepping nie?)
Chapter 25
Chapter 26God relates to Enoch, how out of the very deepest parts came forth the visible and invisible
1I commanded in the very lowest parts, that visible things should come down from invisible, and Adoil (7) came down very great, and I beheld him, and lo! He had a belly of great light.
(7) Adoil. Or, "Light of creation."
2And I said to him: Become undone, Adoil, and let the visible come out of you.
3And he came undone, and a great light came out. And I was in the midst of the great light, and as there is born light from light, there came forth a great age, and showed all creation, which I had thought to create.
4And I saw that it was good.
5And I placed for myself a throne, and took my seat on it, and said to the light: Go thence up higher and fix yourself high above the throne, and be a foundation to the highest things.
6And above the light there is nothing else, and then I bent up and looked up from my throne.
Chapter 27God summons from the very deepest a second time that Archas, heavy and very red should come forth
1And I summoned the very lowest a second time, and said: Let Archas (8) come forth hard, and he came forth hard from the invisible.
(8) Archas. Or, "Spirit of creation."
2And Archas came forth, hard, heavy, and very red.
3And I said: Be opened, Archas, and let there be born from you, and he came undone, an age came forth, very great and very dark, bearing the creation of all lower things, and I saw that it was good and said to him:
4Go thence down below, and make yourself firm, and be a foundation for the lower things, and it happened and he went down and fixed himself, and became the foundation for the lower things, and below the darkness there is nothing else.
(verduidelik asseblief hierdie paragraaf aan my?)
Chapter 28Of how God founded the water, and surrounded it with light, and established on it seven islands
1And I commanded that there should be taken from light and darkness, and I said: Be thick, and it became thus, and I spread it out with the light, and it became water, and I spread it out over the darkness, below the light, and then I made firm the waters, that is to say the bottomless, and I made foundation of light around the water, and created seven circles from inside, and imaged the water like crystal wet and dry, that is to say like glass, and the circumcession of the waters and the other elements, and I showed each one of them its road, and the seven stars each one of them in its heaven, that they go thus, and I saw that it was good.
2And I separated between light and between darkness, that is to say in the midst of the water hither and thither, and I said to the light, that it should be the day, and to the darkness, that it should be the night, and there was evening and there was morning the first day.
The week in which God showed Enoch all his wisdom and power, throughout all the seven days, how he created all the heavenly and earthly forces and all moving things even down to man
1And then I made firm the heavenly circle, and made that the lower water which is under heaven collect itself together, into one whole, and that the chaos become dry, and it became so.
2Out of the waves I created rock hard and big, and from the rock I piled up the dry, and the dry I called earth, and the midst of the earth I called abyss, that is to say the bottomless, I collected the sea in one place and bound it together with a yoke.
3And I said to the sea: Behold I give you your eternal limits, and you shalt not break loose from your component parts.
4Thus I made fast the firmament. This day I called me the first-created [Sunday].
(hmm, tsonamis?)

About Bay Weekly
Bay Weekly — the greater Annapolis area's only independent newspaper — has the kind of upscale demographics that dailies can only dream about. As Advertising Age says, weeklies "offer a different kind of total-market coverage. They don't target a neighborhood or zip code; they cover a generation."
Dailies across the country continue to suffer declining readerships. People have less and less time to read newspapers every day, which in turn deprives advertisers of promised readers.
That's why The Wall Street Journal calls weeklies "attractive to mainstream advertisers."
READERSHIP Bay Weekly's readers live on and around the Chesapeake Bay and care about its continued well-being. They are among the thousands of people in the fast-growing Chesapeake Corridor. Many readers live on the Bay; others come on weekends. Some live off the Bay's riches; others spend their riches on the Bay. They all trust Bay Weekly to reflect the area's values and to reinforce its quality of life.
CIRCULATION 25,000 copies with an estimated readership of more than 60,000. Bay Weekly is delivered to 500-plus locations from Severna Park through Annapolis and Southern Anne Arundel County and to all of Calvert County.
FREQUENCY Bay Weekly hits the streets every Thursday with the exception of Thanksgiving and the occasional major holiday that falls on a Thursday, when the paper comes out Wednesday.
FORMAT Full-color newsprint tabloid, with a page size of 10.44″ wide x 13.75″ and an image size of 9.625″ wide x 12.75″ deep. Black-and-white and full-color.

text: § 73.314 Field strength measurements. (a) Except as provided for in § 73.209, FM broadcast stations shall not be protected from any type of interference or propagation effect. Persons desiring to submit testimony, evidence or data to the Commission for the purpose of showing that the technical standards contained in this subpart do not properly reflect the levels of any given type of interference or propagation effect may do so only in appropriate rule making proceedings concerning the amendment of such technical standards. Persons making field strength measurements for formal submission to the Commission in rule making proceedings, or making such measurements upon the request of the Commission, shall follow the procedure for making and reporting such measurements outlined in paragraph (b) of this section. In instances where a showing of the measured level of a signal prevailing over a specific community is appropriate, the procedure for making and reporting field strength measurements for this purpose is set forth in paragraph (c) of this section. (b) Collection of field strength data for propagation analysis. (1) Preparation for measurements. (i) On large scale topographic maps, eight or more radials are drawn from the transmitter location to the maximum distance at which measurements are to be made, with the angles included between adjacent radials of approximately equal size. Radials should be oriented so as to traverse representative types of terrain. The specific number of radials and their orientation should be such as to accomplish this objective. (ii) Each radial is marked, at a point exactly 16 kilometers from the transmitter and, at greater distances, at successive 3 kilometer intervals. Where measurements are to be conducted over extremely rugged terrain, shorter intervals may be used, but all such intervals must be of equal length. Accessible roads intersecting each radial as nearly as possible at each 3 kilometer marker are selected. These intersections are the points on the radial at which measurements are to be made, and are referred to subsequently as measuring locations. The elevation of each measuring location should approach the elevation at the corresponding 3 kilometer marker as nearly as possible. (2) Measurement procedure. All measurements must be made utilizing a receiving antenna designed for reception of the horizontally polarized signal component, elevated 9 meters above the roadbed. At each measuring location, the following procedure must be used: (i) The instrument calibration is checked. (ii) The antenna is elevated to a height of 9 meters. (iii) The receiving antenna is rotated to determine if the strongest signal is arriving from the direction of the transmitter. (iv) The antenna is oriented so that the sector of its response pattern over which maximum gain is realized is in the direction of the transmitter. (v) A mobile run of at least 30 meters is made, that is centered on the intersection of the radial and the road, and the measured field strength is continuously recorded on a chart recorder over the length of the run. (vi) The actual measuring location is marked exactly on the topographic map, and a written record, keyed to the specific location, is made of all factors which may affect the recorded field, such as topography, height and types of vegetation, buildings, obstacles, weather, and other local features. (vii) If, during the test conducted as described in paragraph (b)(2)(iii) of this section, the strongest signal is found to come from a direction other than from the transmitter, after the mobile run prescribed in paragraph (b)(2)(v) of this section is concluded, additional measurements must be made in a "cluster" of at least five fixed points. At each such point, the field strengths with the antenna oriented toward the transmitter, and with the antenna oriented so as to receive the strongest field, are measured and recorded. Generally, all points should be within 60 meters of the center point of the mobile run. (viii) If overhead obstacles preclude a mobile run of at least 30 meters, a "cluster" of five spot measurements may be made in lieu of this run. The first measurement in the cluster is identified. Generally, the locations for other measurements must be within 60 meters of the location of the first. (3) Method of reporting measurements. A report of measurements to the Commission shall be submitted in affidavit form, in triplicate, and should contain the following information: (i) Tables of field strength measurements, which, for each measuring location, set forth the following data: (A) Distance from the transmitting antenna. (B) Ground elevation at measuring location. (C) Date, time of day, and weather. (D) Median field in dBu for 0 dBk, for mobile run or for cluster, as well as maximum and minimum measured field strengths. (E) Notes describing each measuring location. (ii) U.S. Geological Survey topographic maps, on which is shown the exact location at which each measurement was made. The original plots shall be made on maps of the largest available scale. Copies may be reduced in size for convenient submission to the Commission, but not to the extent that important detail is lost. The original maps shall be made available, if requested. If a large number of maps is involved, an index map should be submitted. (iii) All information necessary to determine the pertinent characteristics of the transmitting installation, including frequency, geographical coordinates of antenna site, rated and actual power output of transmitter, measured transmission line loss, antenna power gain, height of antenna above ground, above mean sea level, and above average terrain. The effective radiated power should be computed, and horizontal and vertical plane patterns of the transmitting antenna should be submitted. (iv) A list of calibrated equipment used in the field strength survey, which, for each instrument, specifies its manufacturer, type, serial number and rated accuracy, and the date of its most recent calibration by the manufacturer, or by a laboratory. Complete details of any instrument not of standard manufacture shall be submitted. (v) A detailed description of the calibration of the measuring equipment, including field strength meters, measuring antenna, and connecting cable. (vi) Terrain profiles in each direction in which measurements were made, drawn on curved earth paper for equivalent 4/3 earth radius, of the largest available scale. (c) Collection of field strength data to determine FM broadcast service in specific communities. (1) Preparation for measurement. (i) The population (P) of the community, and its suburbs, if any, is determined by reference to an appropriate source, e.g., the 1970 U.S. Census tables of population of cities and urbanized areas. (ii) The number of locations at which measurements are to be made shall be at least 15, and shall be approximately equal to 0.1(P)1/2, if this product is a number greater than 15. (iii) A rectangular grid, of such size and shape as to encompass the boundaries of the community is drawn on an accurate map of the community. The number of line intersections on the grid included within the boundaries of the community shall be at least equal to the required number of measuring locations. The position of each intersection on the community map determines the location at which a measurement shall be made. (2) Measurement procedure. All measurements must be made using a receiving antenna designed for reception of the horizontally polarized signal component, elevated 9 meters above ground level. (i) Each measuring location shall be chosen as close as feasible to a point indicated on the map, as previously prepared, and at as nearly the same elevation as that point as possible. (ii) At each measuring location, after equipment calibration and elevation of the antenna, a check is made to determine whether the strongest signal arrives from a direction other than from the transmitter. (iii) At 20 percent or more of the measuring locations, mobile runs, as described in paragraph (b)(2) of this section shall be made, with no less than three such mobile runs in any case. The points at which mobile measurements are made shall be well separated. Spot measurements may be made at other measuring points. (iv) Each actual measuring location is marked exactly on the map of the community, and suitably keyed. A written record shall be maintained, describing, for each location, factors which may affect the recorded field, such as the approximate time of measurement, weather, topography, overhead wiring, heights and types of vegetation, buildings and other structures. The orientation, with respect to the measuring location shall be indicated of objects of such shape and size as to be capable of causing shadows or reflections. If the strongest signal received was found to arrive from a direction other than that of the transmitter, this fact shall be recorded. (3) Method of reporting measurements. A report of measurements to the Commission shall be submitted in affidavit form, in triplicate, and should contain the following information: (i) A map of the community showing each actual measuring location, specifically identifying the points at which mobile runs were made. (ii) A table keyed to the above map, showing the field strength at each measuring point, reduced to dBu for the actual effective radiated power of the station. Weather, date, and time of each measurement shall be indicated. (iii) Notes describing each measuring location. (iv) A topographic map of the largest available scale on which are marked the community and the transmitter site of the station whose signals have been measured, which includes all areas on or near the direct path of signal propagation. (v) Computations of the mean and standard deviation of all measured field strengths, or a graph on which the distribution of measured field strength values is plotted. (vi) A list of calibrated equipment used for the measurements, which for each instrument, specifies its manufacturer, type, serial number and rated accuracy, and the date of its most recent calibration by the manufacturer, or by a laboratory. Complete details of any instrument not of standard manufacture shall be submitted. (vii) A detailed description of the procedure employed in the calibration of the measuring equipment, including field strength meters, measuring antenna, and connecting cable. [ 40 FR 27682 , July 1, 1975; 40 FR 28802 , July 9, 1975, as amended at 48 FR 29508 , June 27, 1983]

Titans hold on to beat Mavs
TERRIL – After watching a 12-point halftime lead evaporate to three in the third quarter, Graettinger-Terril/Ruthven-Ayrshire went on an 8-0 run to start the fourth and then held on for a 39-30 victory against Clay Central-Everly on Friday.
"Defensively we played pretty well again," said GTRA coach Todd Hough. "Offensively, we struggled in the third quarter only scoring four points. We did a good job of toughing it out and hanging on in the end to get a win."
After the Mavericks scored the first four points to start the third quarter, Lauren Flaharty came up with a steal and layup to push the lead back to 10. But the visitors went on a 7-0 run with the Titans just getting a couple free throws the rest of the period as they led 31-26 to start the fourth.
But GTRA went to work right away with Grace Skattebo getting inside for a layup and Brooke Hoffman hitting a long two-pointer. After a free throw by Emily Moran, Hoffman came up with a 3-pointer that put GTRA up 39-26 with 4:40 left in the game.
GTRA pulled back its offense for the most part the rest of the way with the Mavericks hitting a couple late baskets.
Flaharty led the Titans with eight points, nine rebounds and six steals. Hoffman added eight points while Skattebo finished with seven. Bakken had six points and seven rebounds while Moran had three, Katie Olesen had two and Alex Oleson and Morgan McGrauth each had one point. McGrauth also had four steals.
GTRA (5-4 overall, 2-2 in the Cornbelt) hosts West Bend-Mallard in Ruthven on Tuesday and is at Pocahontas Area on Thursday

And sometimes you have the added bonus of regular life stress piling on top of holiday life stress. And when that happens, even though you're supposed to be baking cookies, and roasting chestnuts, all you really want to do is order pizza 7 days a week.
Well, Austin and I are going through one of those times. Times where if we eat dinner, it's usually a quesadilla with only cheese and salsa. Maybe nachos. Again only cheese and salsa.
So to mix it up, I made an artichoke the other night. I served it as if it was an entree. That was the whole thing. We shared one plate and without really any prep, dinner was done. If you aren't quite ready to make a single vegetable into a meal, you could serve this as an appetizer. That'd be classy.
ARTICHOKE w/LEMON ROSEMARY BUTTER SAUCE
1 artichoke
1 stick butter
1 Tbsp. lemon juice
1/2 tsp. dried rosemary, chopped
1. Cut off stem and tips of artichoke leaves. Place artichoke in 3 inches of water. Cover and gently boil for 25-40 minutes, until leaves pull off easily.
2. Melt butter. Stir in lemon juice and rosemary.
3. Dip artichoke petals into butter mixture and pull the meat out between your teeth.

+1 Bru'n WaterTo reduce from 7.2 pH to 5.5 pH would take 0.09 ml/gal of 88% Lactic acid.
Quote from: michaeltrego on July 19, 2013, 03:51:30 PM+1 Bru'n WaterTo reduce from 7.2 pH to 5.5 pH would take 0.09 ml/gal of 88% Lactic acid.It's going to depend on the amount of alkalinity more than the starting pH. In BrunWater, I put in 215 ppm for alkalinity in the sparge water acidification tab (263*50/61 to convert from bicarbonate ppm, according to Palmer). For a desired water pH of 5.5, it calculates 1.21 ml / gal of 88% lactic acid.You can also do this in Kai's water calculator; just set the sparge water volume to the desired amount of water to treat and scroll down to the "sparge water acidification" section.

Harrison Ford Eats His Headset in 36-Year-Old Star Wars Bloopers
Footage gives fans a rare behind-the-scenes glimpse into the classic film
May the flubs be with you!
Star Wars fans should cherish this 2½-minute blooper reel, which gives a rare behind-the-scenes glimpse into the classic film series.
The reel is a composite of takes from the original trilogy, discovered by Lucasfilm editor J.W. Rinzler while he was searching through the film archives in preparation for a new making-of collection, Wired reports. It was then screened at San Diego Comic-Con this summer.
The first 48 seconds of the reel are silent, but the sound kicks in for a flubbed scene involving Carrie Fisher. Be sure to keep watching for some slipping Stormtroopers and Harrison Ford's unusual snack after mangling his lines.

We stole "We Love Ya" from Columbus, who stole it from St. Pauli.

I think Never Rest Easy is the only unique one we have.
So I guess every chants is fucking stolen. Recycle. Reuse. Repeat.

The Dunning–Kruger effect is a cognitive bias in which "unskilled people reach erroneous conclusions and make unfortunate choices but their incompetence robs them of the metacognitive ability to realize it." The unskilled therefore suffer from illusory superiority, rating their own ability as above average.

I thought the Union stole the idea to do Biz Markie, but as I posted on the other thread, a Google search has it in their MLS Cup 2009 songbook. So two fan groups out of nowhere decided to do Biz Markie? Was it that Heineken commercial, or Yo Gabba Gabba?
Posted 08 October 2010 - 01:35 AM
I think Never Rest Easy is the only unique one we have.
I always thought that one sounded an awful lot like the one that goes "woaahhhh woahhhhh woah woah woahhhhh, woaaah woaaah woaahhhhhoooohhh U S A!"
It's impossible to really describe it with a keyboard.
Whatever, they stole it from us.
Posted 08 October 2010 - 01:36 AM
Was it that Heineken commercial, or Yo Gabba Gabba?
Yeah, that's when the old 137 sang it. I have no idea when that was. Probably right before Philly stole it from LARS.

When I worked as a teller, we had a fake strap of bills that had exploding ink in it, so if a robber took our cash we put that in the bag too. And once he went outside it would trip a sensor and the permanent ink would explode like 30 seconds later.
We need chants with permanent ink that explodes if they go outside our section.
Posted 08 October 2010 - 01:50 AM
But...how? I mean...when would they have heard it? We obviously didn't play Philly last year, and it's not like anyone was dumb enough to put a live mike in front of 137.
Yeah, that's when the old 137 sang it. I have no idea when that was. Probably right before Philly stole it from LARS.
Quakes supporters, yeah, they stole everything that wasn't nailed down. And when ACB did Just a Friend at the Open Cup game against St. Louis, I was pretty sure where they got it.
But this one is just weird. If the Sons of Ben say they came up with this on their own, I'd be tempted to believe them.
Posted 08 October 2010 - 01:56 AM
But this one is just weird. If the Sons of Ben say they came up with this on their own, I'd be tempted to believe them.
Me too. Mostly because of how gay (in a non-equal rights fight way) their "modified" lyrics are. We do that shit old school. Their version sounds like that "shoot me now, I don't wanna live in a world with this level of stupidity" version of YNWA the Earthquakes attempted.
Posted 08 October 2010 - 02:02 AM
We Love Ya came from Sam's Army in Columbus, the proud patriots who witnessed the Dos A Cero brought it back. Look somewhere in here and you'll see Ozzie suggesting it after that trip.
And now there's some German commie in Hamburg cursing about how the Americans stole his chant.
He forgot, however, that he stole it from Whoopie Goldberg in Sister Act, his favorite movie (the irony there is for another post).
And I'm sure the chick that sang it in the 50s HATES Whoopie for starting all this.
Posted 08 October 2010 - 02:12 AM
They are, and they aren't. Trying to sing "You'll Never Walk Alone" is just not cool. While this wasn't a chant, there was some serious hurt feelings from Chicago over "Stand and Deliver" being used on a Kansas City scarf. And, like I said, stopper wrote at least two that are still in the rotation.
I'm not being serious. All these chants are recycled in one way or another.
But everyone in the world ripped off "I Will Follow Him" from St. Pauli, apparently. "Seven Nation Army" before that. And I think the "Insert Name Here Until I Die" bit came from West Ham originally. There are definitely stuff that MLS fans import wholesale and rape to death - er, I mean, adapt for their own purposes.
I'm just focused on this one, because it's so out there. I mean, I know you weren't serious, but lots of songs were popular in our childhoods, but you don't hear people doing "Rock Me Amadeus" or "I'm Too Sexy." Picking Biz Markie is still mysterious for ONE group, let alone two. It's almost as if the "Total Eclipse of the Heart" thing had caught on, AND someone else was doing the same thing.

It is very common to get backache or back pain during pregnancy, especially in the early stages.
During pregnancy, the ligaments in your body naturally become softer and stretch to prepare you for labour. This can put a strain on the joints of your lower back and pelvis, which can cause back pain.
Avoiding and easing back pain in pregnancy
Try these tips:
- bend your knees and keep your back straight when you lift or pick something up from the floor
- avoid lifting heavy objects
- move your feet when you turn to avoid twisting your spine
- wear flat shoes to evenly distribute your weight
- try to balance the weight between 2 bags when carrying shopping
- keep your back straight and well supported when sitting at work and at home – look for maternity support pillows
- get enough rest, particularly later in pregnancy
- a massage or warm bath may help
- use a mattress that supports you properly – you can put a piece of hardboard under a soft mattress to make it firmer, if necessary
- go to a group or individual back care class
You can take paracetamol to ease back pain while you are pregnant, unless your GP or midwife says not to. Always follow the instructions on the packet.
Exercises to ease back pain in pregnancy
This gentle exercise helps to strengthen stomach (abdominal) muscles, which can ease back pain in pregnancy:
1) Start on all fours with knees under hips, hands under shoulders, fingers facing forwards and stomach muscles lifted to keep your back straight.
2) Pull in your stomach muscles and raise your back up towards the ceiling, letting your head and bum relax downwards gently – don't let your elbows lock and only move your back as far as you comfortably can.
3) Hold for a few seconds then slowly return to the box position – take care not to hollow your back, it should always return to a straight, neutral position.
4) Do this slowly and rhythmically 10 times, making your muscles work hard and moving your back carefully.
Doing prenatal yoga or aquanatal classes (gentle exercise classes in water) with a qualified instructor can also help build your muscles to better support your back. Ask at your local leisure centre.
When to get help for back pain in pregnancy
If your backache is very painful, talk to your GP or midwife. They may be able to refer you to an obstetric physiotherapist at your hospital, who can give you advice and may suggest some helpful exercises.
Contact your GP or midwife as soon as possible if you have back pain and you:
- are in your second or third trimester – this could be a sign of early labour
- also have a fever, bleeding from your vagina or pain when you pee
- lose feeling in one or both of your legs, your bum, or your genitals
- have pain in one or more of your sides (under your ribs)

I used it once and was not impressed by amount of lactic acid produced. I let it sit for six months. YMMV
I never understood the yeast/lacto blend.Just grow up a lacto starter at 100F, knock out around the same temp, and pitch the lacto starter first. At higher temps and without competing with the yeast, lacto can produce the appropriate acidity in days to weeks rather than months.After the beer is tart enough, aerate and pitch healthy yeast. Making a starter will help the yeast complete fermentation in an acidic environment.
May want to try a sour mash/sour wort instead.

Hidden Treasures
Geodes from Betty Sheffler's Rock Shop
reveal nature's beauty
by Bob McEowen
A small collection of aging
buildings sits like a tiny island surrounded by asphalt where Route
136 joins Highway 61 on its way through northeast Missouri toward Keokuk,
Iowa. The metal barns look a little worse for wear and the old white
frame house is nearly as weathered as the large sign atop it which faintly
declares "Rock Shop."
But one stone building shines
in the sun, its walls adorned with rose-colored quartz, "Angel Moss"
barite, turquoise, opals and geodes lots of geodes.
"Geodes have been the love
of my life," says Betty Sheffler. "I was probably 2 or 3 years old when
I fell in love with geodes and I've never quit."
Formed by organic deposits
within 300 million-year-old mud, geodes are ordinary-looking rocks which,
when split apart, reveal a gem-like treasure of sparkling quartz hidden
inside. Sheffler Rock
Shop near Alexandria is a bit like that. What you see on the outside
cannot compare to what's inside.
In addition to geodes, the
store carries intriguing fossils, strange rocks and dazzling minerals
from around the world. Clearly, the most valuable treasure at the shop,
though, is Betty herself.
Known far and wide as "The
Geode Lady," 75-year-old Betty has stepped back from the business she
founded more than 40 years ago. Her son, Tim, runs the shop now but
Betty is still a fixture, sipping coffee with an ever-present cigarette
dangling from her fingers at the kitchen counter that stands unexpectedly
in the midst of the store.
Although her health has deteriorated
and her hearing is failing, Betty gladly shares her love for geodes
with anyone who asks.
"I just love the idea that
they are so ugly and you open them up and they are so beautiful," she
"I think God wanted us to
take the time to find all that beauty in his world. I really think that's
it," Betty says. "You dig out that geode and open it up and you're the
first person on Earth to ever look in there. You and God, that's it."
As a child, Betty scoured
the countryside near her home in Keokuk for geodes and split them apart
with a hammer and chisel borrowed from her father's tool chest. By the
time she was 15 she had read "The Geology of Iowa" twice and was starting
on the equivalent Missouri textbook. Her parent's yard was littered
with geodes.
"Oh, you don't know how my
mother celebrated when I got married and moved out of the house," Betty
says. "She could have her yard back."
Her late husband, Harold,
indulged her interest which grew from a rock collection to selling rocks
from a small counter in the family kitchen. "Living in the junction
here, people would come in to ask directions, or people would stop and
try to sell you things," Betty recalls. "Well, I'd end up selling them
Her husband even built her
the semi-circular rock house that is as much specimen showcase as family
"I wanted the beauty on the
outside so people could see it," the Lewis County Rural Electric Cooperative
member says. "People come from all over to walk around the house. It's
a landmark."
But mostly, people come
for geodes, which sell for just a few dollars for small stones to $40
or more for larger specimens. Others dig their own at the Shefflers'
two mines. While the mines appear to be little more than creek beds,
they earn their name before a day of collecting is done.
"A lot of people come here
expecting them to be laying all over but it doesn't happen that way,"
says Tim Sheffler, who
moved back to Keokuk to take over the business. "You have to dig them.
It's hammers and chisels and hard rock mining. It's a lot of work."
The mines are open from April
through December, unless a warm spell makes winter digging possible.
Visitors pay $15 per person to extract up to 50 pounds about
a 5-gallon bucket load of rocks from the mines, the only geode
quarries registered with the U.S. Bureau of Mines. Diggers must bring
their own shovels, hammers, sledges, chisels and pry bars.
While first-timers often
open their geodes in the field, experienced rock hounds wait until they
get home in order to protect the delicate formations inside. Either
way, geodes are sure to please.
"It's like a Christmas present.
You never know what you're going to find," Tim says.
Geodes have formed in a number
of places around the world. Some, like the amethyst geodes of Brazil,
are ablaze in color. But the geodes here are glistening white, being
primarily composed of quartz crystal with enough other minerals thrown
in to keep geologists and mineralogists interested.
One website which sells them
describes Sheffler geodes as coming from "the only mine in the United
States that contains gem quality geodes." Betty even remembers one customer,
former Philippine ruler Ferdinand Marcos, who used to order geodes to
decorate his palace.
Last year, more than 25 tons
of geodes were collected at the two Sheffler mines including specimens
collected by customers and the geodes Tim gathered to sell. "These
geodes are famous because people like the 'geminess' of this particular
pocket. They have good clarity and there's a pretty diverse mineral
group within the quartz," says Tim.
The enthusiasm for Sheffler
geodes goes beyond the rocks themselves, though. In 1997 geology and
mineral fanciers from around the country descended on Clark County for
a "Betty Sheffler Day" celebration, complete with geode hunting at the
mine, a swap meet and a dinner banquet which included readings of letters
of appreciation from rock hounds around the world.
Today, Betty's health keeps
her from digging geodes or even visiting the mines. Her husband died
four years ago and Tim moved his family from Texas to take over the
business. In addition to opening the second mine which Betty
has never seen he's added fossils to the store's inventory, preparing
many of the specimens himself.
But at the same time Tim
works to save the business, another force may destroy it. Plans for
an expanded Highway 61 the "Avenue of the Saints" from St. Paul,
Minn., to St. Louis could mean four-lane highway will pass where
Sheffler Rock Shop now sits. Even the new mine lies in progress' path.
While the Shefflers see no
way to avoid their fate they are determined to carry on, continuing
operations at the old mine and relocating the store if necessary. For
Betty, the beautiful geodes buried in the ground require that they keep
the business open.
"There's geodes all over
the world but there's no geodes quite like these. These are gorgeous,
just absolutely gorgeous," she says. "Where
else can people go and legally dig something out of the earth that formed
there 300 million years ago. Where else can they go and do that and
come home with such a treasure?"

text: Managing Hearing Loss in Children There are different options to help manage your child's hearing loss. You will work with your child's health care provider to find the best treatment for your child. A team of trained specialists will also help you and your child deal with challenges that may come up. Your Child's health care Team Your child's care team will include some or all of these key members: Audiologist: A specialist who tests for and identifies hearing problems. He or she also helps find solutions for hearing loss, such as hearing aids and other devices. Otolaryngologist or otologist: A doctor who diagnoses and treats possible problems of the ear. Speech/language pathologist: A professional who identifies and treats speech or language disorders that may accompany hearing loss. Educator for hearing impaired: A teacher of children who have trouble hearing. Psychologist or social worker: A specialist who helps your child and family cope with emotional, educational, social, and financial issues that may arise due to the child's hearing impairment. Genetic specialist: A provider who works with families on genetic issues, including inherited hearing problems. Hearing Devices These hearing devices may help your child: Hearing aids (electronic devices that help make sound louder) Cochlear implants (surgically placed devices that help children with severe or profound hearing loss) Speech Therapy During speech therapy, the speech pathologist will likely: Diagnose communication problems your child may have. Educate you, your child, and your family about the child's communication skills. Teach you, your child, and your family ways to help improve your child's speech and language skills. Communication Options Depending how much hearing loss your child has, he or she may communicate using: Oral communication (speech and lip reading) Manual communication (sign language) Total communication: combination of both oral and manual communication Assistive Listening Devices There are many types of assistive listening devices (ALDs). For example, FM systems are one type of ALD. These require a person speaking, such as a teacher, to wear a microphone. The speaker's voice is then carried to the child's hearing aids, cochlear implant, or earphones. FM systems reduce background noise. They are often used in classrooms to help children with hearing loss hear their teachers. Other ALDs include: Infrared systems used with the television Smoke detectors, telephones, and doorbells that flash lights Alarm clocks that vibrate Telephones that make sounds louder Talk to your child's health care provider for more information about ALDs. Coping with Your Child's Hearing Loss There are some important steps you can take to help you cope with and manage your child's hearing loss: Join a support group. Support groups give you the chance to talk with other parents who have children with hearing loss. For more information, use the resources listed below. Talk to your child face to face. Give your child acoustic (sound) stimulation, such as music. Give your child language (speech) stimulation, such as reading while facing him or her. Be aware of the acoustics (the effect of sound) in your home. For example, having drapes on windows and carpets on floors can cut down on echoing. Echoes make speech harder to understand. Most importantly, treat and discipline your child as you would a child with normal hearing. Resources Online resources you may find helpful include: American Speech-Language-Hearing Association www.asha.org/public American Academy of Audiology www.audiology.org Alexander Graham Bell Association for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing www.agbell.org Babyhearing.org www.babyhearing.org Hands & Voices www.handsandvoices.org John Tracy Clinic www.jtc.org

Police looking for Conn. boy abducted by mother
NORWICH (AP) — Connecticut state police have issued a silver alert for a 4-year-old boy abducted by his mother in Norwich.
Norwich police say Yahquin Warren was abducted Wednesday morning by his mother, 35-year-old Keyett McDonald, and they may have headed to Queens, N.Y., where the boy's father lives. Authorities don't believe the boy is in danger.
Police say McDonald lost custody of the boy, who was in the care of his grandparents. State court records show McDonald has pending drug and motor vehicle cases and has a conviction for attempted larceny.
Yahquin is described as a black male about 3 feet tall and 37 pounds. He was last seen wearing a black jacket and a hat.
Anyone with information about McDonald and the boy are urged to call Norwich police.

Iran admitted on Sunday that unspecified computer systems in the country had been infected with the Duqu worm, a strain of malware similar to the infamous Stuxnet worm that sabotaged key nuclear plant systems in the country last year.
The head of Iran's civil defence organization told the official IRNA news agency that the outbreak was under control. "The software to control the [Duqu] virus has been developed and made available to organisations and corporations," Brigadier General Gholamreza Jalali said, AFP reports.
"The elimination [process] was carried out and the organisations penetrated by the virus are under control... The cyber-defence unit works day and night to combat cyber attacks and spy [computer] viruses," he added.
Duqu was discovered in early September by computer scientists at the Budapest University of Technology and Economics. Subsequent analysis by anti-virus analysts at Symantec, F-Secure and others revealed the malware was closely related to the earlier Stuxnet worm, albeit probably designed for a different purpose.
The worm, like Stuxnet, features a forged digital certificate and makes use of Windows zero-day exploits. But Stuxnet made use of three zero-day exploits, Duqu uses just one (a flaw involving the TrueType font parsing engine).
Stuxnet was designed to infect industrial control systems and narrowly focused on screwing up the operation of any high-speed centrifuges connected to these systems, such as the kit Iran uses to enrich uranium. While Stuxnet was designed for sabotage, Duqu appears to be built with reconnaissance in mind. The malware collects information from infected systems, possibly in preparation for future attacks.
Jalali described Duqu as the third virus to hit Iran following Stuxnet and the Stars worm it said it detected in April. It's unclear if Stars is also related to Stuxnet. Oddly, and rather suspiciously, samples of stars have not come into the possession of Western anti-virus firms, leading some to publicly question whether the malware was anything more than a propaganda ploy by Tehran. ®
