Outdoor 20X Full HD WDR Speed Dome Network Camera
The DCS-6915 Outdoor 20X Full HD WDR Speed Dome Network Camera is a high-definition professional surveillance and security solution suitable for small, medium, and large enterprises. The DCS-6915 features a 3 megapixel sensor capable of Full HD 1080p resolution, allowing for very clear surveillance footage to be taken. The powerful 20X optical zoom and 10X digital zoom ensure that you can see even the smallest details with ease.Proportional Pan, Tilt, and Zoom SpeedsProportional pan and tilt make it easy to precisely adjust the cameras view. When the camera zooms in, the panning speed is automatically slowed to improve camera tracking and control. PTZ presets allow the camera to monitor specified areas along predefined paths. The broad tilt range from -10° to 190° allows the camera to see beyond the true horizon, meaning you can see more even when zoomed in.Built for Tough EnvironmentsSpecially designed for use in challenging environments the DCS-6915 has a toughened metal, industry-certified IK-10 (vandal-proof) and IP66 (weather-proof) housing. This means that it is able to withstand sudden high impacts, as well as adverse weather conditions. With its built-in heater and fan, the camera can operate in extreme environments at temperatures ranging from -40 to 50 °C (-49 to 122 °F).High-Quality VideoTo maximise bandwidth efficiency and improve image quality, the DCS-6915 provides real-time video compression using the H.264 and MJPEG codecs. This versatility enables a wide variety of security applications, such as monitoring public areas to detect incidents and to coordinate responses, enforcing access control to restricted areas, deterring criminal activity, or monitoring inventory. Furthermore, bandwidth requirements can be adjusted in real-time over the network, and recorded video files can be saved to an internal MicroSD card1.Wide Dynamic Range (WDR)IP surveillance cameras are often installed in areas with consistent lighting, like offices, banks or stores. This makes it easy to set exposure levels for optimal image quality. At other times, surveillance personnel are not so lucky. Doorways, glass walls or other areas that are exposed to direct or varying sunlight can create backlit or high contrast scenes. In such conditions, detail is lost in bright areas because of over-exposure and in dark areas because of low light. Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) technology overcomes these conditions by merging two images, one with a short exposure time to capture detail in the brighter parts of the image, and one with a longer exposure time to reveal detail in the darker areas. The resulting WDR image provides natural, balanced detail a must in critical surveillance applications with tricky lighting conditions.Removable IR Cut Filter for Continuous MonitoringThe IR Cut Filter can be manually applied, or set to automatically adjust based on lighting conditions. This feature enables the camera to capture crisp colour images during the daytime, and grayscale images in low-light.Robust Management SoftwareThe included D-ViewCam camera management software allows you to view up to 32 cameras on a single computer screen from a central location. Motion detection and digital input devices trigger automated e-mail alerts that can instantly inform administrators of unusual activities.1. MicroSD card not included

Open your Bible with me to Matthew Chapter 23. And this morning we're going to continue in our look at this very, very provocative chapter, very important chapter. In Matthew 23, we are examining a sad and pathetic scene in Scripture. In fact, one of the very saddest of all scenes. Because it is the pronouncement of doom on the nation of Israel. They stand in imminent judgment. They are condemned in this chapter because they have rejected the Lord Jesus Christ. They have rejected in rejecting Him, God Himself and His word.
And the ones who led the nation in their rejection were false spiritual leaders called scribes and Pharisees. And so this chapter comes forth predominantly as a vengeful attack and cursing of the false spiritual leaders of Israel. For centuries, the Jews had awaited for the arrival of their Messiah. The hope and the heart of the Jew was that the day would come when the Messiah would arrive and establish His kingdom and blessedness for every Jew would come with that kingdom.
And as the centuries went on every Jewish mother would have wished herself to be the mother of that Messiah. Every Jewish man would have wished himself to rise in that kingdom of Messiah to a place of prominence and honor and service. It was the great and abiding hope and anticipation in the heart of every Jew. And yet when the Messiah came instead of believing, instead of receiving, they rejected, they hated, they despised Him, and ultimately they had Him executed.
And along with Him they sought to kill all those who represented Him. It is a sad and tragic twist in the history of Israel called out by God's love, called out by God's grace given promises and covenants and hope and yet when all of that is to come to fruition and the arrival of the Messiah, they have gone so far the other direction that rather than believe they execute their own Messiah. And so this Chapter pronounces judgment. This is the climax of the ministry of the Lord Jesus Christ to Israel. He has come to them. He has preached to them. He has articulated the gospel to them. He has given the opportunity to repent and to believe in Him and they have not.
In fact, their rejection now is final. There's really little more to be said and this is a confirmation of the fact that Israel has finally rejected Jesus Christ. Now that rejection is led by the scribes and the Pharisees. The false spiritual leaders who had captured the hearts and minds of the people and turned them away from Jesus Christ. It is also the last sermon Jesus ever preached publicly. It is His final public statement. And it is not a warm inviting and loving statement. It is just the opposite. It is a statement of damnation and cursing against these false spiritual leaders who have lead the people astray.
Now you'll remember that the first 12 verses are a warning to the people to stay away from these leaders. There is some hope in that, because when Jesus is crucified and rises from the dead and ascends back into heaven, there will be preachers of the gospel who will go through Jerusalem and the land of Israel. The message of salvation will still be preached and if the people will listen to those preachers and not the scribes and the Pharisees, there is still hope for individuals, if not, for the whole nation.
In other words, while this is a damnation of the nation as it were, there is still hope for individual Jews if they will turn their ears away from these false spiritual leaders and listen to the true apostles of the Messiah. So the first 12 verses constitute a warning that the people should not listen to the false spiritual leaders. Then beginning in verse 13 and running through verse 33, the warning turns to a cursing. And Jesus, who has been talking to the great mob gathered in the temple court at the Passover on Wednesday of passion week, He has been talking to this great crowd and warning them, now turns to the Pharisees and the scribes who are standing with the crowd and face to face confronts them with a series of seven curses called woes.
This is a very bold, very confrontive, very dramatic act. Jesus confronts them and curses them in front of the whole crowd. Pulls no punches, holds back nothing. We've looked at that condemnation. We've gone through those seven woes, seven curses. Let me just remind you of the elements of our Lord's curse. First He cursed the false spiritual leaders for exclusion, keeping people out of heaven. Secondly, He cursed them for perversion. Turning people in their influence into children of hell. Then He cursed them for subversion. That is undermining truth and substituting for it a system of lies. Then He cursed them for inversion. That is the reversing of all right moral perspectives. Putting justice and mercy and faith low on the list and ritual high on the list. Inverting the divine order.
The He cursed them for extortion. For cleaning the outside of their act, but stealing and robbing from the people at every chance they had. Then He cursed them for deception. Appearing to be models of virtue, but actually being contaminating graves where people were defiled as if they touched the grave of a dead person. And finally he cursed them for pretension. Pretending to be pious and holy and better than all of those who preceded them when, in fact, they weren't better at all. They were the same and if anything, they were worse.
So these self-righteous, legalistic, hypocritical haters of the righteous thirsted not for righteousness, but for the blood of the righteous and Jesus condemns them. And the sad fact is that they were the spiritual leaders of Israel whom the people followed and had great guilt for having led those people astray. Now in climaxing this section to these false leaders our Lord says in verse 32, "fill up then the measure of your fathers." Now, I want to go a little more into detail as to what this means. Fill up then, the measure of your fathers. Fill up is a term used often in Scripture in connection with sin and judgment and wrath.
Very frequently in the Scripture the image of a cup being filled to the brim is used in connection with God's divine wrath. The book of Revelation talks about the cup of God's wrath or the cup of His fury. Isaiah talked about it. Jeremiah talked about it. Hosea talks about it. It is even indicated in Matthew later on when Jesus, in the garden, says "let this cup pass from me," and sees it as the cup of divine judgment, the cup of fury. The picture is that judgment and wrath and sin are like that which fills up a cup. Sometimes in Scripture it is the cup of sin. Sometimes it's the cup of wrath. Sometimes it's the cup of judgment. And we shouldn't be distressed by that because they're all related. Sin brings the wrath of God, which brings His divine judgment. So you fill up a cup of sin, you could be said to be filling up a cup of wrath. You fill up a cup of wrath. You could be said to be filling up a cup of judgment.
It's as if God allows only so much and then the cup is filled up and judgment strikes. God has reached His limit. Sin has reached its limit and the cup is poured out, as it were, in judgment. And so our Lord, in a command, amazingly says to them fill it up, finish it off, do the rest of the evil that has to be done. It's amazing to think that the Lord Jesus Christ as pure and holy as He is as God could command anyone to do evil. But He does, in effect, say fill it up. It is a similar thing to the fact that He said to Judas in John 13:27, "What thou doest, do," what, "quickly." Go do it. Go do it.
It isn't that Jesus desired that evil be done. It is only that since evil was to be done Jesus said get it over with. Get it over with. And that is the essence of what He's saying when He commands them to fill it up. Get it over with. Finish it off. You are going to top off the accumulated cup of sin of the nation Israel, of the people whom God revealed His truth to. You're going to fill it up. Get it over with. Get it done. That judgment may come. Now notice what He calls this cup. He calls it the measure of your fathers; the measure of your fathers.
Fill it up, the same cup your fathers were filling. It's as if the history of Israel has been a history of filling up a cup with sin. Filling up a cup of sin is filling up a cup of wrath is filling up a cup of inevitable judgment, and they've been doing that. Successive generations of the Jewish nation, successive generations of Israel have been sinning and sinning and sinning and sinning and sinning and just filling and filling and filling the cup until finally judgment comes.
It's accumulative thing that He speaks of. The wickedness of each succeeding generation contributes them to the final result. And the Lord is saying the limit of Israel's evil is almost reached. God's tolerance has its limits. You have it back in Genesis where God says in Chapter 6, "my Spirit will not always strive with men." And what does He do? He destroys the whole world in a flood leaving only eight souls. And what God was saying is it's full. The cup of man's wickedness is filled up. That's it. There's no more room for anything else. And He comes in judgment.
You have in the book of Revelation. In the great terrors of the tribulation and the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ in final judgment when He destroys the wicked of all the earth and the final judgment is held and souls are sent into hell forever, that too is called the filling up of the cup of wrath. In other words, God takes no more sin in the cup. That's it. And there's a limit to what God will allow. There is only so much wickedness before judgment comes. And that is true in this case in the nation Israel.
And so He says to these scribes and Pharisees finish off the cup that judgment may come. They are working by the way with the same murderous sins of their fathers. Back in verse 30, they said if we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets. We wouldn't have killed the prophets like our fathers did. We wouldn't have slaughtered the righteous like our fathers did. And Jesus says, "wherefore you are witnesses against yourselves that you are the sons of them who killed the prophets." Why? Because He looked into their hearts and they were plotting His death.
They would have given anything to kill Him on the spot. And He says to them, who are you kidding, you are the sons of your fathers who killed the prophets for you yourself would kill this prophet who is the supreme of all prophets, the Messiah. You're not fooling anybody. You may claim that you're better than your fathers, but you're not. You are doing nothing more than filling up the same cup full of murderous sins which your fathers filled up. Terrible climax to the history of Israel. It's not only the history of Israel. It sweeps even further back than that. Ever since there have been righteous men, there have been killers of righteous men. Righteous men act as a rebuke to any society. And when that society is given the latitude to do it, it will kill righteous men. Some of you saw last night that the society of John Huss did it to him.
And they will always do it, because a righteous man is a rebuke to a society and if that society has latitude for the execution of righteous men, that society will do it unless that society has turned to God. And so He says you are simply filling up what began a long time ago with your fathers. He characterizes them in verse 33 then. He says, "you snakes," ophis, just the general word for snakes. You brude of ekidna. Very interesting word, ekidna. It means a small poisonous snake. "You snakes," He says generally. "You brude of poisonous snakes." And they are very small little snake that live down in the desert area of Israel that looked like a stick. They would be sitting somewhere still. They would look like a small twig or a broken branch or a small stick and maybe in gathering sticks for a fire, you would collect one in your hands and the next thing you knew those teeth would plunge their way into your arm or your hand they would not be able to be torn loose. Such has happened to the apostle Paul in the book of Acts. And God spared him miraculously.
This is a poisoned snake that is impossible to detect in some situations, deceitful and deadly. This is what He calls them. "You deadly poisonous snakes," but we shouldn't be surprised that He called them that because that's exactly what John the Baptist called them back in Chapter 3 of Matthew when he said "Oh you brude of vipers, you snakes." They came out to him and he said the same thing. Here we are several years later and they're no different. The ministry of John the Baptist had no effect on them and the ministry of Jesus Christ had no positive effect on them, only hardened them all the more and they are the same poisonous, deadly, deceitful snakes they were when He first arrived.
By the way, the word ekidna has to do with this poisonous snake, and in fact, the word became such a connotation for evil, for subtle wickedness, that ekidna eventually in classic Greek mythology became the name of a monster that was half snake and half woman. So the ekidna was known as a wicked, subtle, poisonous, deadly, deceitful creature. There was no compliment to be called an ekidna. And when Jesus called them that, everyone knew what He was saying.
So the Chapter begins with a warning, followed with a cursing. And the cursing is climaxed as He says to them fill it up. Fill the cup that your fathers started filling with their murderous acts against the righteous. You go ahead and fill it up you deceitful, deadly, poisonous snakes. And then He says in verse 33, "How can you escape the damnation of Gehenna?" Gehenna is the word that is the symbol of hell, the constantly burning trash pile and dump in the valley of Hinnom out of the city of Jerusalem, which became the identifying symbol for eternal hell. How can you escape it? And the answer is, they can't. No way.
By the way, this fits the imagery. Hell is seen as fire. And in a field in those days that was cut to stubble, the farmer would go back to that field and burn the stubble off. And also in that period of time in that place as even today as in California, they were used to brush fires. And when a brush fire would come across the land or when a farmer would burn the stubble in his field, these little snakes, these ekidna would come up out of their holes and they would swiggle as fast as they could racing ahead of the first to escape it, but they never were fast enough to escape the fire. And that's as it should be. That's what John meant when he said to them the first time they came, "you snakes scurrying, do you think you'll escape the wrath to come?" And the same thing here. "You vipers, do you think you'll escape the damnation of hell? Do you think you can outrun the fire of God?" Not a chance, not a chance.
So this is a severe condemnation. Absolutely said, absolutely tragic that this people called by God, that these leaders given responsibility to take God's holy word and God's covenant and truth and dispense it to the people instead of doing that and being blessed in time and eternity and perverted that and perverted themselves and perverted the people to the point where even holding in their hands the true word of God and the true law of God they were nothing more than snakes who deceived and poisoned the nation of people and could never themselves escape the damnation of hell.
He is not talking about criminals here. He is not talking about the worst of men in society. He's talking about their spiritual leaders. So that's how He climaxes the curses against them. Now the Chapter closes with two brief sections, really three I guess. And I want us to look at these three final points today and next time. First, we'll say eminent condemnation and the intimate, compassion, and then insured conversion. This is the climax of His sermon.
His first point was a warning to the crowd against these leaders. His second was a cursing of the leaders themselves, and now comes a word of condemnation. And the condemnation is eminent, having given all these curses and all these warnings; He says, there's a judgment coming and it's coming fast. Notice verse 34. "Wherefore," or therefore, or literally because of this, because of this, because of who you are, a brude of poisonous deceivers, hypocrites, blind fools, blind guides, sons of hell, because of who you are, because of what you've done, because you've rejected the truth of God, rejected the righteous spokesman of God, rejected even the Son of God, because of that "I," that's emphatic in the Greek, Christ is the one who is sending, "I am sending unto you." Stop there for a minute.
This is the consequence. I'm sending unto you. Because of this, because you fill up the cup of iniquity, I am sending unto you and you'd think He'd say judgment, wrath, vengeance. But look what He says, "prophets and wise men and scribes." Well, why does He say that? What is He talking about? Well, those are all Jewish terms. Those are titles that would be consistent with Jewish vocabulary; prophets, wise men, scribes. Why is He sending more messengers? Prophets would be preachers. Wise men would be teachers. Scribes would be writers. I'm sending your preachers and teachers and writers. He's saying I'm not through. You may have made a final rejection, but I am not through with you.
Now listen very carefully to this, because this is a very difficult thing to understand. But the Lord says, I am sending you these people, not so that you might have another chance to believe. But that you might have continued chances to reject so that you will pile upon yourself a greater weight of guilt which deserves a severer judgment. It's a fearful thought, but that's what He's saying. "Because when I send you these prophets and these wise men and these scribes some of them you will kill and crucify and some of them you will scourge in your synagogues and persecute them from city to city so that upon you will come all the righteous blood." I'm going to stop at that point. Do you see the point?
It's a heavy passage. And He's saying, I want you who are so guilty to be more guilty yet and to bear the full weight of your sin. And the reason He talks about prophets, wise men, and scribes is because of the unique Jewishness of Matthew's gospel and He uses Jewish terms and titles and it gives us that solidarity with the Old Testament murderers and persecutors of the righteous. But the point is simple. I'm going to send you these people and I know what you're going to do. You're not going to believe them as a nation as a whole, you leaders. You're not going to believe it. Oh there would be a few who would, yes.
There would be some who would be converted, yes. There were 3,000 on the day of Pentecost weren't there? And many, many thousand more after that. But as a whole, you leaders and as a whole this nation will not receive them, but rather will kill them and persecute them and therefore, you will pile more guilt upon your head and be worthy of greater judgment. Listen friends, that's God talking in the person of Jesus Christ. God is a God of judgment and vengeance and we must not forget that.
The purpose of sending the preachers is not for grace, it's for judgment. And may I suggest this to you, that when you hear the message of Jesus Christ and you hear the gospel of Jesus Christ, it is a message unto salvation or it is a message unto judgment. And the more you hear it the more it comes to you as a message of grace and the more you reject it, the more it piles upon you the guilt of judgment. For the more you have, the more you're responsible for. To whom much is given, what? Much is required. Better off only to have heard once than to have heard a multiplicity of times and continue to reject, you just pile on greater guilt. And ultimately that's what the Lord is saying here.
Look at 2 Corinthians Chapter 2, verse 14. In 2 Corinthians 2:14, he says "Thanks be unto God." And this is a most unusual passage for which to be thankful by the way. But he says, "Thanks be unto God who always causes us to triumph in Christ and makes manifest the smell of His knowledge by us in every place." Now I want you to listen to this. Paul says I'm thankful that no matter I do, no matter where I preach, no matter what the response is, we triumph. Every time a preacher preaches the gospel he's victorious. Every time the word goes forth it accomplishes the purpose to which it was sent and listen to me, the purpose is not always salvation. The purpose sometimes is compounded guilt. Do you understand that?
The purpose sometimes is to bring the grace of salvation to the heart and God is glorified through His grace. The purpose other times is to compound guilt to bring judgment and God is equally glorified through His judgment, because God is as much a God of judgment as He is a God of grace. I don't know that we have understood that properly. And so verse 15 says, "For," here's why we can thank God that we always triumph, "For we are unto God a sweet taste of Christ in them that are saved and in them that perish." Why? You say you mean it's a sweet taste in God's mouth when people perish? It's a sweet smell to God when people perish? It's hard for us to understand that. But God is as much revealed in His glory in the devastation of judgment as He is in the expression of grace and salvation.
God is not lopsided. He's not all love and grace and kindness and mercy. He's a God of holiness and a God of justice and a God of judgment and a God of wrath and a God of vengeance against evil. And if men choose that, He will be glorified in their condemnation as much as He is glorified in the conversion of those who believe. God will be glorified either way. And so it is a sweet smell to them that are saved and them that perish. To the ones who are saved, it is a smell, says verse 16, "of life unto life." To the ones who perish, it is a smell of death unto death.
What a statement. What a statement. So He says we don't corrupt the word of God in verse 17. We don't alter the message. We give it as straight as it can be given and we know that we triumphed every time we give it, because God is glorified when some believe He's glorified in His great grace, when some reject His glorified in His holy judgment against their rejection and their sin. Do you see the point? And God has to be glorified as much in this end as He is in this end, else He is not revealing Himself fully as God.
Perhaps Revelation 22:11 might help. In Revelation 22:11, at the conclusion of all that God could possibly say at the last Chapter in the Bible, the message is all given. This is the last word, "He that is unjust, let him be unjust still. He that is filthy, let him be filthy still. He that is righteous, let him be righteous still. He that is holy, let him be holy still." In other words, as it is at the end so it'll be forever. And if you are unjust and filthy, then let it be so forever. God will be glorified even in that act of judgment against your ungodliness. If you are righteous and godly, let it be that forever. God will be glorified through that as well.
Go back to Romans Chapter 9 for a moment. I want to show you two other verses. We studied these recently. And here the apostle Paul in Romans 9 is saying God has a right to do what He wants. And he says in verse 21, "If God is the potter and He desires to make a vessel unto dishonor, that's His privilege." The potter can do that. He can make one vessel to honor and another unto dishonor. That's the potter's choice. And so he says and it's an interesting way he says it, it's almost like verse 22 is so "What if God willing to show His wrath and make His power implied against sin known endured with much long-suffering the vessels of wrath fitted to destruction." What that verse is saying is look, if God wants to display his wrath and his power against sin on vessels of wrath fitted for destruction, so what. Doesn't He have a right to do that? He's God. He's God.
And on the other hand, He will show the riches of His glory on the vessels of mercy as well. God has to be seen in His wholeness and God is as much glorified in His wrath against ungodliness as He is in His grace towards those who believe. Now you can go back to Matthew Chapter 23. So God will send preachers and God will send teachers and God's going to send writers. Jesus says you're going to have them all. But it isn't that you may be saved. It is that you will kill them and you will scourge and you will persecute them and as a result of that, you will bring on yourselves the filling up of the cup of wrath and the blood of all the righteous. And then God will judge you with severity.
And this way, the religious leaders would fill up the accumulated guilt from the history of the death of the righteous. Now notice in verse 34, He says, "some of them you will kill and crucify." Kill probably refers to the Jewish method. Crucify to the Roman method. Kill, stone them. Crucify, the Roman method of nailing them to a cross and certainly they did that. They crucified Jesus using the Romans as the executioners. They stoned Stephen did they not, and many others. Many others we don't know we could count them all. History doesn't reveal all of them to us. And then the ones they didn't kill they brought very near to death. Scourging, they did that to Paul didn't they?
How many times was he beaten with rods and whips by the Jews? And who else beyond Paul suffered the same thing? And the ones they didn't scourge, they pursued from city to city to city to city. We see that with the apostle Paul. The pursuing, the chasing them everywhere. They pursued Christians to punish them, to persecute them at Antioch, Pisidian, at Iconium, at Lystra, at Thessalonica, at Berea, at Corinth, at Jerusalem, at Caesarea. It was a way of life for the early church, always running from the persecution of these false spiritual leaders of Israel who sought to stamp out the gospel of Christ.
So the final answer of the religious leaders of Israel which represents the mass of people is we reject Jesus Christ. And we refuse His message. And He says, all right, fill it up. Fill it up. And just to be sure you do, I'm going to send more preachers and more teachers and more writers and you're going to fill it up by killing them and the ones you can't kill you're going to persecute. And then you're going to fill that cup up so much that upon you verse 35 says, "is going to come all the righteous blood shed on the earth." The whole thing is going to come apart. The dam is going to take only so much and it's going to break on you. The cup of wrath will be filled.
The word hopos, hopos, the beginning of verse 35. Hopos means purpose, "for the purpose that upon you may come the righteous blood shed." God's purpose is to let this generation fill up the final act of atrocity against the righteous by massacring the Savior Himself and His followers and then God's judgment will pour itself out. It isn't that God wills that men be lost. God is not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. It is, however, that when men reject the Lord Jesus Christ and refuse to come to Him, it is when they do that, they bring upon themselves an outpouring of God's wrath. And listen carefully to me, the longer they have rejected and the more information they have that they have rejected and the more lessons given them from which they have not learned the greater the guilt. Do you understand that?
So that the people in Jesus' time have greater guilt than anyone that ever lived before them. You say well their forefathers had the law of God. Yes, but they had the law of God and the Messiah. They had the teaching of the Old Testament prophets and John the Baptist and Jesus and His apostles. And not only that, they should have learned of God's judgment on past apostates and past murderers of the righteous. They should have learned from them not to do that. So they had accumulated revelation and they had accumulated lessons from history, all of which they rejected. Therefore, their accumulative guilt is surpassing that of any generation prior to them.
And so it all breaks on their heads. How can one generation be held responsible for all the righteous blood? Because of its constant rejection of full light, constant rejection of all the lessons of history. I mean, we can see it in this covenant people clearly. I hope we can see it as clearly in our own nation, because we are in the very process right now of filling up the cup of God's wrath. And we've been doing it steadily and this generation alive today is more guilty of doing it than any in the past, because we have the accumulated testimony of God's truth in this culture and we also have the accumulated lessons of why we should not act against a holy God. And the more we accumulate that data, the more guilty we become and when it breaks, it'll break on the generation that finally fills the cup to the brim. That's where they were.
And one generation which duplicates the sins of past generations and rejects the lessons of past history and rejects the revelation of God that it has, brings upon itself a more profound judgment. So judgment is cumulative. And He says this to them, verse 35, this is a fascinating verse. "It's going to break on you all the righteous blood," that is all the blood shed when righteous people were killed. When they persecuted righteous people and took their life, which, of course, is the greatest indicator of the rejection of God's truth. I mean, when you kill the righteous, you've gone the limit, right? That's the worst you can do.
So all of the worst of your evil manifested in the killing of righteous people, shedding their blood, it's all going to come to fill the cup and break on you. "And you're going to be suffering the just punishment of all that blood from righteous Abel to the blood of Zechariah's son of Barachiah whom you slew between the temple and the altar." From A to Z, from the beginning of the Old Testament, Genesis Chapter 4, the first murder of a righteous man, who killed who? Cain killed. Why did he kill Abel? Because he couldn't stand a righteous man, right? He couldn't stand him.
I said it earlier and I'll say it again, if a society has the latitude to kill righteous people, it'll do it, because it can't tolerate that. And Cain could not tolerate the purity of Abel, so he murdered him. And that was the first murder of a righteous man. And he sweeps them all the way through their history, because they were out of the loins of the Adamic family. All the way through to the conclusion of the Old Testament era and the last Old Testament martyr, Zechariah, son of Barachiah. And they murdered him between the temple and the altar. Now there's a lot of discussion about who this last guy is. We don't have any problem with Abel. We know who he was.
But they say Zechariah, son of Barachiah, seems to be a mistake because if you go back to 2 Chronicles, don't do it now just write it down somewhere, if you go back to 2 Chronicles 24, I think it's around verse 20-22 or 23, 2 Chronicles 24, you will find there a man named Zechariah, the son of Jehoiada. And Zechariah the son of Jehoiada was alive during the time of King Joash. That's about 800 B.C. That's a long time before the end of the Old Testament era. Now this guy, Zechariah, son of Jehoiada, was stoned to death in the temple court. He was stoned to death by his countrymen, the Jews in the temple court. The reason was because Joash the king told them to stone him to death because he didn't like the fact that he was rebuking idolatry.
So there's another illustration. Zechariah, son of Jehoiada, around 800 B.C. spoken against the idolatry of Israel. The king didn't like it, so he told the people to stone him to death. They stoned him to death in the temple. So many people have said well, you see, that's who Jesus has in mind. Zechariah, son of Barachiah. Only Jesus muffed up his father's name. And it's really Zechariah, son of Jehoiada. And critics want to use this passage to indicate to us that not only can we not always trust the Bible, but we can't even always trust Jesus who may be prone to era from time to time.
Is that the case? I think not. You say who is Zechariah, son of Barachiah? Well, if this Barachiah was nobody, if this was a name pulled out of the air, if we didn't know Zechariah, son of Barachiah, well, maybe would say or a little more prone to say that he made a mistake. But there is in the Bible a Zechariah, son of Barachiah. Do you know who it is? It's the Zechariah that wrote the prophecy Zechariah. And in case you're startled by that, there are 27 Zechariahs in the Bible. And if there were 27 Zechariahs named in the Bible, God only knows how many thousands of Zechariahs there must have been.
So it shouldn't be too startling to us that in 800 B.C. Zechariah, son of Jehoiada was murdered for being righteous and later on another man who happened to have the same name, Zechariah, son of Barachiah, was also murdered for righteousness. When Jesus says in this passage that all through history you've been killing the righteous. If Zechariah is a common name, why does that bother us? I mean, they continually killed the messengers of God. Jesus pointed that out in the parable, you remember, about the man who sent back his servants to the vineyard and they kept killing his servants? Sure, this is a way of life for them. They probably killed a lot of Zechariahs.
So we aren't startled by that. I believe this to be Zechariah the son of Barachiah, none other than the prophet Zechariah. Who lived, by the way, way down to the end of the Old Testament era in 580 to 570, right at the end of the era. And what He is saying the first martyr of righteous in that Old Testament era Abel and the last martyr of righteous in that Old Testament era was Zechariah, son of Barachiah. We didn't know this until Jesus said it, but they killed him between the temple and the altar. It seemed to be that in the temple was a familiar place for them to murder people.
Don't be shocked, they tried to killed Paul there. Read Acts 21. That may have been a place where they killed a lot of righteous people, because that's where the focus came clear you see. You have unrighteous people running the place and you have a righteous person who confronts them. That would be the place where they might kill. Think of the life of Christ. How many times did He go into the temple when they would have wanted to kill Him if they could have. So we're not surprised by that. So I don't believe Jesus made a mistake. I don't believe He could.
Now, I'm not going to second-guess Him. I believe this takes us from Abel to Zechariah, the son of Barachiah, and Jesus is telling us that He too died a martyr like so many others because He spoke the truth of God. You slew him. Would you notice that when He says, "whom you slew," some of them would have said wait a minute we weren't there. We didn't do that, but He sees the nation as one guilty nation. Cumulatively filling up the cup through many generations and the guilt of rejection and rebellion is increased by that accumulation of previous warnings that accumulation of previous messages and preachings from the prophets and writings from the scribes. They had so much information, they had so much knowledge, they were filling up the same cup to its brim.
So the bloody flow of murdered martyrs from Abel to Zechariah, He says you're guilty of it all. And I see you as one with your whole nation. You are guilty as guilty as Cain. You are guilty as guilty as those who slew Zechariah and everybody in between those two. You've accumulated all that guilt. What's going to happen? Verse 36, we'll stop with this verse. "Truly I say to you all these things shall come upon this generation." All these things. All what things? All this guilt. All this guilt for righteous blood is going to break on your heads.
It's like in Revelation 17 when John sees the vision of the final world false church, you know the harlot and mystery Babylon, the great prostitute, the false religious system of the tribulation time? And John says "She was drunk with the blood of all the martyrs. It's as if that false system too accumulates the guilt of all the slaying of the righteous there. So he says you're guilty of it all and because you are guilty of it all, the guilt is going to come down on top of you. It's all going to break on you. This generation. What's He mean? I think He meant the people right there. This generation. This Jewish group of people. This nation at this time and this place in history, you fill the cup up when you killed the Savior and His apostles. You've filled it up, that's it.
And God says, through Christ it's going to break on you. And it did by the way, it did. The Lord was crucified as we shall see a few days later. And it wasn't but a few years after that in 70 A.D. that the judgment of God came and that judgment physically that came in 70 A.D. against the nation Israel was only a symbol of the eternal damnation that came against those Christ rejecters. Oh there was some who believed in the midst, but as a whole, the nation rejected. And that judgment that fell on them in 70 A.D.D. is still being meted out against them and will be until the day comes when they turn and see the Messiah for who He is and we'll get into that next week.
But the judgment came and 70 A.D. and it was a holocaust to end all holocausts. It is called by Luke, in Chapter 21:22, "the days of vengeance." If Christ was crucified in 33 A.D. in 66 A.D. the revolution broke out against Rome. They took as much as they could take of Roman oppression. The Zealots had been running around. Zealots were a political party that were aggressively anti-Roman. They went around with daggers in their cloaks and they would stab Roman soldiers. They were the terrorists of the time. If there were bombs, they would have been the ones setting the off. But they ran around assassinating and fomenting problems and came out of the hills in little raids and so forth, the Zealots. And finally and around 66 A.D. the thing flourished and broke into open revolt. In fact, it was about May of 66. And Rome struck back and they started a bloody battle in Galilee and started slaughtering the Jews in the north in Galilee. And finally Titus came down to the city of Jerusalem with an army in excess of 80,000 men.
By the way, Josephus, the great Jewish historian was there and has written the full record of it so we know what happened. And Josephus fills in all kinds of information for us. The 80,000 men came in, they got all around the city, the Jews laughed at them, mocked them, refused to surrender and the siege broke out and the war broke out. It's beyond description. Absolutely beyond description to tell what happened. The Romans who were outside the city had the Jews captive in the city. Any Jew outside was immediately killed. In fact, they put crosses up all around the city so Jews could look out of the city and see crucified Jews everywhere. When they caught a Jew, they crucified him outside the city.
They built a mount outside the city so that the Jews could not escape and that's a very common Roman technique. In fact, you were with us in Masada earlier at the end of last year, we stood on the top of Masada, we could see the Roman mound that was put around that so that it would be a place that soldiers could entrench themselves and people could not escape in living the city. They denuded all the hillsides of the trees to make war machines and they had these create siege machines that would catapult 600 pound boulders over the walls and crush the buildings and the people inside. The built battering rams. They built weapons out of the woods and...out of the wood, and what the Jews did was set all that on fire. And so every time the Jews burned that up they took more trees and built more weapons.
And so for months they were stripping the forest as they built the sheaves and the Jews burned them up because they were made of wood. And inside the city there was all kinds of problems going on. In fact, there was even an eternal revolution among the Jews and they were killing each other. The Romans sealed off the city eventually and starvation and famine began to work its terrible work. And unbearable stench began to rise from which in the city because of the death. And they threw out at least 100,000 bodies according to Josephus, they threw 100,000 bodies out over the wall just to get rid of the decay and the stink. And so the outer part of Jerusalem was just covered with dead bodies decaying. It's an unbelievable thing.
Finally, the temple was destroyed fire and in August of 70 A.D. the Roman soldiers went into the temple location and lifted their own banners in the very holy place and sacrificed to their false Gods. Caesar then ordered that the whole city of Jerusalem be raised to the ground and it was completely leveled. All that was left was a small part of the western wall. There were, according to Josephus, 1,100,000 dead Jews, 100,000 Jews or 97,000 I guess he says were taken into prison as prisoners. Out of one city gate, they hauled over 115,000 corpses of Jews, out of one city gate. They obliterated them.
God said the cup is full, that's it. God's spirit does not always strive with man. And so the word of judgment was imminent condemnation and it came and it came fast. That's how God feels about sin. That's how God feels about the rejection of His truth and His Son. That's not the end of the story. There's hope in the last three verses, but that's for next time. Let's bow in prayer.
Oh Father what a fearful thing it is to fall into the hands of an angry God, as the writer of Hebrews has said. Lord God, may we learn the lesson. May we not be those who go on compounding the sins of the past. May no one here be ignorant of the revelation of grace and of the history of judgment. May everyone of us be drawn to the Savior, who alone can save from sin the Christ, the Lord Jesus, and believe in Him, confessing Him as Lord. Lord we know that this is not that which is Your desire for You are not pleased in the death of the wicked. You have no pleasure in that. Though it reveals Your great glory and holy justice, You have no pleasure in it. You are not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. Lord we pray today that everyone here would come to repent us. Turn from sin to Christ. Father, we pray that You would do your work in every heart for Jesus' sake. Amen.

Microsoft Outlines The 12 Philosophies Of Windows
At a New America Foundation Policy Luncheon at the National Press Club here, Brad Smith, Microsoft's senior vice president and general counsel, outlined the principles and discussed lessons Microsoft has learned over the past 10 years based on antitrust battles, regulatory scrutiny and fierce competition in the operating system and software market in general.
Smith said the principles largely come from things Microsoft picked up in the consent decree the software giant signed in settling its landmark antitrust battle with the federal government, but that more recent developments led to the crafting of some of the other principles.
The 12 principles are based on three main areas: choice for computer manufacturers and customers, opportunities for developers, and interoperability for users, Smith said.
"These principles are 12 tenets to govern and guide the development of Microsoft Windows," Smith said.
Microsoft adopted a set of philosophies that led to the crafting of the principles, he said.
One was the recognition that operating systems evolve over time and that the addition of new functionality to an operating system makes life easier for developers.
And, while the U.S. antitrust ruling recognizes that innovation in all forms is to be encouraged, it should not stifle competition, Smith said.
"We've seen over the last five years steady improvement to audio and video playback in Windows, but at the same time we've seen phenomenal success by others," Smith said, noting that Apple with its iPod technology is an example of this.
Meanwhile, Smith said that beyond the new principles. "We've have nearly five years of experience under the U.S. consent decree, and the one thing we've learned the importance of is humility "
Ted Halstead, president and chief executive of the New America Foundation, who also served as host of the event, said, "This is a real, historic turning point, not only for Microsoft, but for the industry as a whole."
The first principle goes to the installation of any software.
"We will ensure that Microsoft will design Windows in ways that make it easy for people to add non-Microsoft features," Smith said.
No. 2 is easy access: Computer manufacturers are free to add icons, shortcuts and the like to the Windows Start menu and other places used to access software programs so that customers can easily find them, Microsoft said.

Gyasi Dapaa
Senior Fellow and Director of Analytics
Driving success from the manufacturing plant to the open road
Navistar uses analytics to improve talent retention, streamline the supply chain and help its customers keep on trucking
Trucks are the lifeblood of US commerce, transporting more than 70 percent of all freight nationwide. Without these vehicles circulating goods near and far, trade would slow to a trickle.
To keep its customers' trucks going for the long haul, Navistar has made "driven by uptime" its motto. "We want to build the trucks that stay on the road the longest," says Gyasi Dapaa, Senior Fellow and Director of Analytics for Navistar, a leading manufacturer of commercial trucks, buses, defense vehicles and engines. "And that mission drives what we do every day."
We want to build the trucks that stay on the road the longest, and that mission drives what we do every day. Ultimately, SAS helps us deliver on our promise of being the 'uptime company.'
The analytics team at Navistar supports this mission by weaving sophisticated predictive analytics into every aspect of the enterprise's culture. Navistar uses SAS® Office Analytics to optimize many operations – from human resources to supply chain to sales.
Optimizing talent retention and recruitment
Achieving Navistar's goal starts with recruiting and retaining the best people who can produce the best trucks. Dapaa's team of data scientists works with the human resources department, using analytics to understand what drives employees – and how to find and retain them.
"Our main focus is to make sure that each and every business unit of Navistar is able to make the best decisions using data," Dapaa says. "If we help our HR department to recruit and retain the best talent for Navistar – whether they are the best engineers, the best supply chain thinkers or the best procurement folks – we can produce trucks that beat the competition."
And they didn't stop there. The team also developed a data-driven, evidence-based model called Talent Quadrants (Tal Quad). An advanced Tal Quad plots performance on one axis and the probability of retention or termination on the other axis to determine who is at most risk of leaving. This information allows HR to take action to retain them.
"For example, we're able to see that an employee is a superstar, but he has a 50 percent chance of leaving, so let's do something about it," explains Dapaa.
Streamlining the supply chain
As a manufacturer, Navistar needs to optimize the number of units it builds in each plant. Each plant relies on multiple suppliers for parts. Plants must balance fast response to customers with giving suppliers enough time to meet demand to minimize cost of expedited shipments for necessary parts.
SAS Office Analytics allows Navistar to calculate the optimum lead times and plant capacity rates given various constraints. First, the analytics team looks at the cost of expedited shipments with different supplier lead times (e.g., two weeks, three weeks and seven weeks). Next, it analyzes the relationship between lead times and the frequency of "red tags," which are trucks that must be rolled off the assembly line to wait for a part. Another element is the plant's ability to meet customer deadlines given existing capacity and the impact on customer loyalty.
"We started with six sets of data: supplier data, production floor data, truck build data, expedited freight data, logistics data and delivery data," Dapaa explains. "Then using SAS, we cleansed the data, reduced the optimization problem to a disparate set of regression analytics problems and figured out correlations between the 'line set' time and various supply chain metrics. Then we brought everything together to paint a coherent picture of the optimal lead time and capacity rate."
The bottom line: Navistar wants to have the lowest cost tied to getting its parts from suppliers while reducing missed deliveries. "We try to correlate and predict factors related to costs to build versus satisfying customer demand for the delivery of new trucks within a certain time frame," Dapaa says. "After all, shipping new trucks on time helps keep our business running because we, in turn, are keeping our customers' businesses running. This leads to happy customers, which drives loyalty."
Balancing high-value sales territories
When it comes to keeping the sales force happy, the challenge is making sure that sales territories are equitable. One of Navistar's business units consists of 30 sales managers who work with about 4,000 dealers. Finding a way to divvy up this business among the sales managers requires a constant balance of multiple pieces of data, such as the dealer's proximity to assigned sales manager and the equity of each sales territory.
The analytics team took advantage of SAS optimization to create individual sales territories that offered revenue opportunities balanced with manageable geographic areas. The team also adjusted the number of dealers assigned to each sales manager, helping these managers learn and apply best practices across dealers.
Comprehensive analytics everywhere
As Navistar incorporates more analytics into the production and delivery of its products, it is achieving better performance in the marketplace. Solving HR, territory assignment, supply chain optimization and other challenges requires an ecosystem designed to churn out insights. In meeting these challenges, Navistar is now armed with a team of talented data scientists, many terabytes of data, and a single integrated SAS solution that enables it to separate useful data from noise, and thereby extract insights.
"Overall, SAS has been a great tool for us," Dapaa says. "It helps us ensure our dealers are assigned to their sales managers in the most optimal manner; gives us a predictive way to maximize the production and delivery of newly produced trucks; and guides our decisions on who to hire and invest in. Ultimately, SAS helps us deliver on our promise of being the 'uptime company.'"

Several Wetherspoon pubs have 'moon' in their name, relating to The Moon Under Water – the name of the fictional perfect pub (in an article by George Orwell in the London Evening Standard) which served a wide range of beers and great food, yet without music or entertainment. When the first Wetherspoon pub opened in 1979, it mirrored the style of George Orwell's The Moon Under Water; Wetherspoon felt that 'moon' in the name of some pubs was a good link to the fictional one.

Thomas Mueller scored twice in the second half Sunday and England had a goal denied by the referee in a 4-1 victory that put Germany into the World Cup quarterfinals.
The 20-year-old forward finished two quick German counterattacks within 3 minutes to sink England's hopes of beating Germany at the World Cup for the first time since the 1966 final.
England was not helped by referee Jorge Larrionda waving play on even though Frank Lampard's first-half shot landed well past the goal line after hitting the crossbar. Germany led 2-1 at the time.
Germany went up on goals by Miroslav Klose and Lukas Podolski before Matthew Upson pulled a goal back in the 37th minute.

Power to the People - How fans really, REALLY make a difference
The first season of "Anyone But Me" is complete. What an amazing sentence to write. Even more spectacular is that we've seemed to have created a series that so many people love.
We've all heard the words "we couldn't do this without our fans" Although it's easy to agree with that statement, we think we can take that one step further. We really, really mean it when we say we can't do this without you.
Fans are in a unique position right now when it comes to web series. Although there are many web series out there vying for your attention, it's up to you which ones stick around. Gone are the days when your show gets pulled because it's no longer bringing in the ridiculous numbers it used to, or because the subject matter isn't going in the direction executives would like. No need for fans, fruitless pleas blitzing the network with heartfelt letters or their character's favorite condiment. Now, as long as you keep clicking, and clicking often, your favorite series can continue on.
In short, clicks (or views) are the lifeblood of the a web series. It's what advertisers look at to determine a series worth and how much they are willing to spend. So now the fans have more power than they ever have. The choice is yours.
And because of that choice, a web series also has the opportunity to take an important step forward in entertainment that is more individualized. "Anyone But Me" is a series made for you. Not the mass audience, watered-down version of you, but the naturally complicated, not easily labeled version of you. And as long as everyone keeps clicking, Season 2 promises more complications, some familiar faces and, as always, dedication to the characters and stories you love.

Just got word from the Phillies that righthander Joe Blanton has been placed on the disabled list with what the team is calling a medial impingement of the right (throwing) elbow. No immediate indication on the severity of the injury, but righthander Vance Worley has been recalled from Triple-A Lehigh Valley to start against the Mets tomorrow night.
The injury is a tough blow for Blanton, who is coming off two straight quality starts against the Brewers and the Padres in which he allowed two runs in seven innings in both outings.
Worley is 2-2 with a 2.78 ERA, 9.9 K/9 and 2.4 BB/9 in four starts (22 2/3 innings) for Lehigh Valley. It will be his third big league start. Worley spent September with the Phillies last season, starting a 7-1 loss to the Marlins in which he allowed two runs on six hits with five strikeouts and one walk in five innings, and a 7-0 win over the Braves in which he allowed one hit and two walks with three strikeouts in five scoreless innings.

The answer isn't simple. Before we get to that, however, let's take a look at the case. The plaintiff, based in Las Vegas, filed a lawsuit in a U.S. district court in Nevada against Bodog, alleging patent infringement. On June 14, the judge awarded 1st Technology damages in the amount of $48,937,456.00. There are a number of reasons for Bodog not showing up; company CEO Calvin Ayres claims they were never served properly, while observers of the case point to the U.S. Justice Department's crackdown on online gambling as the reason Bodog representatives stayed away.
After Bodog failed to appear, the venue was switched to the state of Washington. On August 1, a judge for the Superior Court of Kings County in Seattle, Washington, supported the damages and ruled that Bodog must surrender all of its domains to 1st Technology. That leaves 1st Technology with the options of either liquidating or monetizing the domains.
Note that 1st Technology is in the business of technology licensing. The head of the company, Dr. Scott Lewis, is credited with leading the development of the first single integrated computer chip with on-board video and audio compression. He is also said to have introduced multiple broadband Internet and multimedia technologies. A quick search of federal district court filings and dockets shows that 1st Technology is involved as a plaintiff in at least five other patent infringement cases at this time, and at least one of these is with another gambling site.
The disputed patent was filed by Mel Molnick with the U.S. Patent Office in 1995 and published in 1998. (As an interesting side note, Calvin Ayres has been building his company for about 10 years now, so he started not long before the patent was published). It is for a method for the production and transmission of enhanced multimedia information. This software is downloaded by Bodog's customers to assist their gaming activities. At this point, however, it looked like it would be "game over" for Bodog and its customers.
{mospagebreak title=Bodog Gets Busy}
Not surprisingly, 1st Technology went right to Bodog's U.S.-based registrar and told them to shut down the disputed domains. Near the end of August, Bodog.com went black. But Ayres didn't get to where he is today without knowing how to fight.
In roughly 12 hours, Bodog was back in operation on NewBodog.com – all 90,000 pages of it. If you think this must have been an SEO nightmare for the company, you're probably right. While all the appropriate redirects went into place, Bodog had some highly coveted positions in Google with some generic keywords that are enough to make a hardcore gambler's eyes water. Rob Garner writing for Search Insider noted that as of August 20, Bodog.com held the number one spot in Google for "poker game." And as of August 16, it held the number one spots for "casino sport book" and "college football gambling."
That last keyword brings up another issue: from Bodog's point of view, 1st Technology's timing could hardly be any worse. The beginning of September is the busiest time for North American sports-related gambling, thanks to the start of the American football season. Along with casino-style gambling, Bodog offers online sports betting – indeed, to judge from the company's description in Google and the layout of its web site, the sports betting is at least as important as the casino.
Fortunately, Bodog was able to redirect all regular customers from bodog.com to NewBodog.com, apparently with very little hassle. You'd think 1st Technology would be upset enough about this to sue for trademark infringement – after all, it now owned Bodog, right? Wrong. They might want to sue, but they couldn't. Calvin Ayres had registered Bodog as his company's trademark quite some time ago; handing over the domain isn't the same thing as handing over the trademark or even the brand. As Ayres explained in his blog, "A domain is just a doorway to your business. As long as our domain has Bodog in it we are still Bodog. This was a forced domain change only."
Ayres also created significant buzz around the domain name change. Less than two weeks after the change, he made an entry in his blog (now removed) that rather thoroughly flamed 1st Technology, calling them "patent trolls." He also revealed in a press release that he had signed a brand licensing agreement with "Morris Mohawk Gaming Group" for operations and marketing of gaming in North America. While industry insiders wondered whether such a group even exists, the name gave Ayres all the ammunition he needed to talk smack. He pointed out that the Mohawks "aren't exactly known for backing down from a fight…and they don't take kindly to folks who try to steal from them." He uses even stronger language later in his post.
{mospagebreak title=Yet Another Move}
Not long after that, however, Bodog was moving again, this time to BodogLife.com. Doing a Google search on Bodog quickly turns up BodogLife.com at the top position. This is a very good thing for the company brand, since the major search engines will not allow gambling and casino ads. In short, Bodog can't use a pay-per-click campaign to let users know about the site or the redirection, unlike many other businesses.
But it's clear that Ayres intends this last move to be permanent. "Once we get Bodog.com back from Raymond Niro and the 1st Tech Patent Trolls," he explains in a blog post, "we will just use it as a redirect since there will be no reason to change back again and by then the new site will be too well positioned in the search engines again to make it worth the effort to change."
Even so, wasn't it a struggle to make the two moves? "Making the transition from Bodog.com to Newbodog.com to BodogLife.com has not been the SEO nightmare that so many naysayers would like to think," Ayres revealed. "Within 12 hours of having Bodog.com stolen we had moved everything over to a new URL and within five days we had all of our new domains resume their number-one positioning on Google."
One is forced to ask, however: number one for which keywords? As of this writing, Bodog has not regained its strong position for generic keywords in the online gambling market. For the very same keywords for which it used to come up as the number one listing in Google, Bodog is not even among the top 30 results. That could be the kiss of death in an industry as highly competitive as online gambling.
On the other hand, the new domain name – BodogLife – hints at a possible change of focus at the company. Bodog, after all, is not a name that can inherently be associated only with gambling. Bodog introduced Bodog Girls in 2002 (with their own calendar following in 2005), and its site includes tabs labeled "bodognation," "bodogmusic," "bodogtv" and "bodogfight." In short, Ayres seems to be trying to reposition Bodog from an online gambling site into a lifestyle brand. With a business that brings in $7.3 billion a year, Ayres could turn himself into the next Hugh Hefner.
{mospagebreak title=It's Far From Over}
Let's do a quick recap before taking this into the final stretch. Ayres has been fighting what he sees as the theft of his domains by making sure in advance that his business name was trademarked (so he didn't lose it when he lost the domains), getting the word out about the move, and getting the move and the redirects completed as quickly as possible. He made sure the new site would score high in the SERPs for his brand since he can't control his ranking on the generic keywords – not immediately, at least; he gave the impression in his blog of having a team of SEOs working on it. And he took advantage of this potential disaster by expanding his brand and working toward repositioning his site to cover more than gambling – something he's apparently been moving toward for years.
But it's not over yet. Mid-October saw Bodog and 1st Technology back in court in Las Vegas. Bodog sought to overturn the default judgment, while 1st Technology filed for a permanent injunction to prevent Bodog from operating in the US and also to prevent them from redirecting traffic to BodogLife.com. Chief Judge Roger L. Hunt ruled against both of them. He let the default judgment stand and rejected Ayre's argument that he never received notice of the lawsuit. Likewise, he ruled that 1st Technology "failed to adequately address the four-prong test that would satisfy the burden to obtain a permanent injunction."
Ayres, meanwhile, has raised the rhetoric. NewBodog.com displays a mocking tabloid-like page with a "story" dated October 11, 2007 that describes 1st Technology's lawyers as "the same law firm that has made a business out of taking nearly discarded patents, stretching them thinner than a slice of deli meat and using legal threats in an effort to extort money from large companies." It further describes the lead lawyer, Raymond Niro, as "nothing but an evil patent troll with stinky sausage breath."
It's hard to say how this will end; many expect the case to set a precedent, and some think that if 1st Technology wins the case, it could have repercussions in the online music industry as well. But Ayres has shown that the way out of a situation like this is to move forward, not backward – and this lawsuit should serve as a warning to show how easily one can lose one's domain.

An Olds L-12 is still a good flugelhorn; I own one as well as its yellow-brass belled twin, the Reynolds FU-52. I wouldn't call it the best, though, although it's certainly more than adequate for just about any use. Incidentally, Art Farmer played a number of different flugelhorns over the years (Couesnon, Besson, Kanstul, possibly more); you can read a bit about one of his horns which is currently owned by Dmitri Matheny:
I believe it was sold recently, but during a visit with Flip Oakes a couple of years ago, I had the pleasure of seeing the first Kanstul ZKF-1525 made, which was presented to Art Farmer. After Farmer's death, Flip (who designed horns for Kanstul) acquired it from the Farmer estate.

This photo was from last night before I started glazing. Oh yeah, there's a ware rack outside the shot besides this lot as well. I am glad to say its now all glazed and in a lit kiln, finally. I'm relieved. In the morning I'll load another bisque load, now that things are finally dry, and probably fire the gas kiln again Wednesday night.
The weather is fantastic tonight. Clear skies, 73 F, and (a rare occurance) no wind blowing across the clearing toward the kiln (and burners). How nice for being out by the kiln and firing! This is a relief after a summer of incessant rain. I was getting so tired of having to wear my muck boots seemingly everywhere to trudge through orange mud and puddles, not to mention having to deal with the headaches of trying to navigate my car strategically up our driveway without getting sucked down into a pot hole and stuck! Anyways, everything is drying up nicely and I am back to wearing flips and birks.
I've mentioned before that we've been working on expanding the studio for a while now. Its actually been an ongoing project for a long time.. scrape together a few dollars, buy a few more boards and nails. I would just love to be able to have all the materials on hand and get it done in one fell swoop so I could get back to some sense of order and normalcy, and maybe take on some students again, but for now, this is the way it is. This afternoon Lowell headed off to the recycling place in town to trade in some cans and metal stuff that was lying around, to clear up around and get a little pin money, I suppose. Well evidently he ended up having more than I thought because he came back with these. "These will look great in the studio upstairs!", he said, with a big silly grin across his face.

Too Young, Too Pretty: When Authors Are Criticized For Their Looks
This week, Nell Freudenberger's second novel, The Newlyweds hit shelves, and we'd say we're pretty excited. The book itself is great, but the reappearance of the author reminded us of her past as a new kid on the block, part of that cyclical surge of young, attractive authors that always seem to take a lot of heat, especially from critics and other writers. After all, it's not every author who is judged in the headlines to be "too young, too pretty, too successful," but we like to think that with her newest novel, Freudenberger has pushed past that stigma to be taken a bit more seriously, and perhaps enjoyed with a little less jealousy. Others of her good looking brethren have done the same — or have fallen off the face of the planet. Click through to see our round up of a few authors that have been criticized, ridiculed, or simply condescended to for their looks or age, and how they've fared since. And no, we're not going to get into the whole Franzen/Wharton thing.
Nell Freudenberger
In a 2003 backhanded-compliment-filled Salon article entitled "Too young, too pretty, too successful," critic Curtis Sittenfeld expressed the all-too typical kind of rage-jealousy that gets directed at young, attractive authors, admitting that he and his friends hated her for things like her first author photo in The New Yorker ("it would be overstating it, but not by much, to say that you could see down her shirt") and her choice to turn down a large book deal for a smaller one ("Meaning she was, like, virtuous and un-greedy on top of everything else — it was sickening!"). But really, it's the fact that she's good looking, "thought not to have paid her dues," a Harvard grad, and supposedly talentless. Except that last part isn't really true. And yeah, we're jealous too, but we're also glad to see that Freudenberger wasn't a single, sexy flash in the pan, and that it's looking like she'll have a long career ahead of her.

The Lipscomb University Bisons will face a tall challenge in both the literal and physical sense when they face North Carolina State in Raleigh, N.C., Saturday at 1 p.m.
The N.C. State Wolfpack, members of the Atlantic Coast Conference, are 6-1 on the year. Their sole loss was on the road to No. 22 Davidson 72-67.
But the Bisons (4-4, 1-1 A-Sun) will also have to face a starting frontcourt that checks in at 6-9, 6-9 and 6-6 while combining to average 42.5 points and 20.3 rebounds.
"The biggest challenge will be their overall size and strength," said Lipscomb head coach Scott Sanderson.
Sophomore center Adnan Hodzic will anchor the Lipscomb post.
He has set career highs for rebounds in two of his last three games and is averaging 9.75 boards per game over the last four games to compliment his 15.3 points per game over the same period.
Lipscomb will face N.C. State after ten days off following a 70-47 win over SIU Edwardsville last Tuesday.
"Whenever you get that many days to practice you, use it to get away some and recharge your battery and your mind," said Sanderson. "We have been working to develop our bench that hasn't played as much because we want to give them some more opportunities and more individual coaching."
While the additional December practice dates may have provided additional learning opportunities, not all have been merry for Sanderson's squad. Freshman center Rob Murphy was injured this week and senior forward Thomas Pfaff was already sitting out after suffering an injury in practice early in the month.
Sophomore forward Brandon Brown, who began the year playing small forward, will have to fill the void not only at the power forward position, but also at center when Hodzic is not on the court.
Sanderson also plans on calling on redshirt freshman Brian Wright and true freshman Jordan Burgason to play significant roles.
"We need Brian and Jordan to both play a bigger piece for us," said Sanderson. "We need those two guys to step up. They are both excellent shooters that just haven't shot the ball very well."
Wright and Burgason are shooting a combined 25 percent (11-of-44) from the three-point line.
"It is just a matter of growing when the lights are on and the popcorn is popping as opposed to three o'clock in the afternoon when we are in the gym with no one else in there," said Sanderson.
Both players have shown streaks of their true ability this year. Wright scored 21 on 8-of-12 shooting in the season opener against Oakland City while Burgason scored 17 on four-of-seven shooting at North Florida on Dec. 4.
Sanderson considers last Tuesday's victory over SIU Edwardsville the best game of the year for the Bisons.
"Defensively we were terrific," said Sanderson. "We rebounded the ball, only had nine turnovers and we shot the ball a little bit better in the second half."
Lipscomb held SIU Edwardsville to 29.3 percent shooting and forced 15 turnovers.
After leading the Atlantic Sun Conference in field goal defense for two of the last two years, the Bisons had struggled on the defensive end allowing opponents to shot 44.3 percent for seventh in the A-Sun.
Sanderson had been preaching defensive urgency to his team all season and the victory was the first game that the Bisons delivered.
But Sanderson is definitely not ready to check the completed box next to defensive urgency.
His top request from the squad this weekend is to play with "a sense of defensive urgency."
"We have to maintain our sense of defensive urgency like we did last week," Sanderson said. "It is definitely going to be different against N.C. State. And we have to have the sense of urgency of how we play every possession offensively to not let our offense affect our defense."
The Bisons also debuted a five-sophomore starting lineup last week starting Hodzic, Brown, Michael Teller, Josh Slater, and Jimmy Oden. Teller and Oden got the nod over Pfaff and Michael Lusk.
While Pfaff sat out due to injury, the coaching staff was seeking a spark off the bench when they decided to bring Lusk off the bench.
Lusk delivered and finished with 14 points and 4 assists after only scoring ten points over the previous four games.
Oden also performed well in his first start of the season and second of his career finishing with nine points, five rebounds, and four assists.
The decision to go with a younger lineup, while partially out of necessity, is similar to Lipscomb's 2005-06 season when Lusk found himself on the receiving end of the move to the starting lineup.
After starting the season 6-6, 2-2 in the Atlantic Sun, Sanderson made the decision to move bring senior Cameron Robinson off the bench while starting Lusk.
The Bisons responded with a seven-game winning streak and closed the regular season winning 12 of 15.
"When will we pick up the fruit off the ground from that change?" asked Sanderson. "I don't know. When you are fixing to face N.C. State and Indiana, you can make a lot of changes and may not see the reward. I really believe that when we get into conference play that we will see the rewards of changes."
As Sanderson and his coaching staff are placing their finishing touches on their game strategy for Saturday, there is extra excitement as Lipscomb plays their first Atlantic Coast team.
"The most important thing is cutting down on our mistakes and becoming better as a team so when we do get in the league play and have cut down on our mistakes, the wins will take care of themselves," said Sanderson. "In my mind we have three games to prep for league games."
After Saturday's game Lipscomb will travel an hour west to Elon, N.C. to begin preparations for Monday's game against Elon at 6 p.m.
A member of the Southern Conference, Elon is 2-4 on the year.
"Elon is very comparable to teams in our league," said Sanderson.
Elon is led by Brett James and Ola Atoyebi who are each averaging 14.2 points a game.
Jonathan Seamon and Benjamin Seamon, along with special guest commentator Justin Seamon, will be on the call for the Lipscomb Sports Network. Free online audio streaming of both games is available at www.LipscombSports.com/sportsnetwork/.
