19 "Why do you call me good?" Jesus asked him. "Only God is truly good."
14 I am the good shepherd; I know my own sheep, and they know me.
11 For this is what the Sovereign LORD says: I myself will search and find my sheep.12 I will be like a shepherd looking for his scattered flock. I will find my sheep and rescue them from all the places where they were scattered on that dark and cloudy day. 13 I will bring them back home to their own land of Israel from among the peoples and nations. I will feed them on the mountains of Israel and by the rivers and in all the places where people live. 14 Yes, I will give them good pastureland on the high hills of Israel. There they will lie down in pleasant places and feed in the lush pastures of the hills. 15 I myself will tend my sheep and give them a place to lie down in peace, says the Sovereign LORD.
20 But to answer your question, you know the commandments: 'You must not commit adultery. You must not murder. You must not steal. You must not testify falsely. Honor your father and mother.'" 21 The man replied, "I've obeyed all these commandments since I was young." 22 When Jesus heard his answer, he said, "There is still one thing you haven't done. Sell all your possessions and give the money to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me." 23 But when the man heard this he became very sad, for he was very rich. 24 When Jesus saw this, he said, "How hard it is for the rich to enter the Kingdom of God! 25 In fact, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the Kingdom of God!" 26 Those who heard this said, "Then who in the world can be saved?" 27 He replied, "What is impossible for people is possible with God." 28 Peter said, "We've left our homes to follow you." 29 "Yes," Jesus replied, "and I assure you that everyone who has given up house or wife or brothers or parents or children, for the sake of the Kingdom of God, 30 will be repaid many times over in this life, and will have eternal life in the world to come."
6 I was so zealous that I harshly persecuted the church. And as for righteousness, I obeyed the law without fault.
25 One day an expert in religious law stood up to test Jesus by asking him this question: "Teacher, what should I do to inherit eternal life?" 26 Jesus replied, "What does the law of Moses say? How do you read it?" 27 The man answered, "'You must love the LORD your God with all your heart, all your soul, all your strength, and all your mind.' And, 'Love your neighbor as yourself.'" 28 "Right!" Jesus told him. "Do this and you will live!"
10 Don't make your living by extortion or put your hope in stealing. And if your wealth increases, don't make it the center of your life.
14 Even Gentiles, who do not have God's written law, show that they know his law when they instinctively obey it, even without having heard it. 15 They demonstrate that God's law is written in their hearts, for their own conscience and thoughts either accuse them or tell them they are doing right.


The recent discovery of a potentially Earth-like planet orbiting the nearest star to the Sun has caused waves in the exoplanet and astrobiology community. Proxima Centauri b is a terrestrial planet with a minimum mass of 1.3 Earth masses orbiting in the 'habitable zone' of the red dwarf star Proxima Centauri. It was discovered by an international team of astronomers led by Guillem Anglada-Escude from Queen Mary, University of London using ESO, LCOGT, SPACEOBS and BOOTES observatories. A flurry of scientific papers on Proxima Centauri b have since appeared on the arXiv, including comprehensive reviews of the planet's potential habitability by the Virtual Planetary Laboratory (VPL) team, one of NExSS's largest groups.
VPL's Rory Barnes discusses 'Opportunities and Obstacles to Life on Proxima b' in his blog post on the Pale Red Dot webpage.


One of the greatest days for any contractor, at any level, is when the words "WE WON THE BID…..WE WON THE BID!" are cast over the weary war room. Can you hear the cracking of high fives and beers opening?
WHEN DO WE GET PAID???
It's easy to simply say "it's a standard form" and "it works for everyone". Not true. All parties at every level must FEAR THE FORM!!!
The "pay if paid" and "pay when paid" concepts sound very similar but are two dramatically different payment terms under construction contracts. Unfortunately, these terms have caused a great deal of pain in the construction industry as Ohio courts and arbitration panels are teeming with financial disputes after a project owner fails.
The Ohio Supreme Court is poised to clarify the distinction between "pay if paid" and "pay when paid" in Transtar Electric v A.E.M. Services Corp. Case No. 2013-0148 (Oral Arguments were November 5, 2013).
As a refresher, "pay if paid" means the general contractor pays the subcontractor if, and only if, the owner pays the general contractor. Every other payment clause is "pay when paid," which means the general contractor must pay the subcontractor in a reasonable time after the work is completed.
When a general contractor incorporates "pay if paid" language in the contract, it's a garden variety attempt to shift risk. Courts have historically frowned on this shift in risk primarily because the general contractor, who is in privity of contract with the owner, is much better suited than the subcontractor to assess creditworthiness. It is not surprising that some general contractors like to add, (some might say "slip in"), "pay if paid" clauses in their form agreements with the subcontractors. When the owner tanks, the subcontractor, already out of pocket, is left to litigate.
subcontractor is to be paid out of a fund the sole source of which is the owner's payment to the subcontractor. See, e.g., Evans, Mechwart, Hamilton & Tilton, Inc. v Triad Architects, 2011 Ohio 4979.
Too often when the parties try to understand what the boiler plate means they turn their hands up and cry "huh?" Consequently, the Ohio construction world is watching closely for the Supreme Court's ruling in Transtar.
The Supreme Court is considering whether the magic words "condition precedent" are enough or should the parties intent be determined by more extensive "plain language". The case begs the question: Is it reasonable to charge non-attorneys with an understanding of legal concepts like "condition precedent"? A ground swell of amicus support from subcontractor groups seeks to expand the elements necessary for a valid "pay if paid" provision. Legal knowledge among the parties in a construction project widely varies and, thus, it would be no surprise if a more expansive rule will evolve from the Transtar case.
Meanwhile, celebrate the winning bid, only after you ask "How do I get paid?" Perform due diligence on the owner. Teach your team to incorporate best document management practices. Seek clarity and knowledge through counsel. Finally, FEAR THE FORM, and the form will take good care of you.
Contact attorney John Swansinger for more information.


A great solution for a small backyard space!
Have a small backyard without much usable space? Here's an option we came up with for an Olympia homeowner. We added a patio extending off of the orginal slab that was included with the house. Because the orginal slab was higher to compensate for the lower grade of the backyard, we were able to convert it into a stop tha leads down to the new patio space. The new aggregate concrete patio gives them penty of room to lounge in the backyard, read a book or entertain guests, while the original patio provides a covered space during the winter months. We also recommended exposed aggregate concrete because it provides more traction when it's wet outside in the winter.
If you have a patio or landing area in your backyard that is too small be be usable, let AJB Service offer you a quote for a patio extension or add-on. Give us a call at 360-789-3707, or fill out our online contact form.


Tokyo contains some rather noteworthy waterfalls including the Hossawa Falls which are included in the One Hundred Waterfalls of Japan. While at the Odake Falls 大岳滝 are around half the height of the Hossawa Falls they are no less impressive and given their seclusion means more of a chance to enjoy them in peace. The original plan was to drop by the nearby Odake Limestone Cave on route but unfortunately it was closed. This particular cave was discovered in 1961 and to this day remains with the same family. Although the gentleman who first uncovered it passed away a few years ago his spritely 99 year old wife continues to keep the operation running.
From the cave the waterfall is a further 1.2 kilometres up the road with the last 300 metres veering off a hiking trail. Being winter most of surrounding foliage had died off providing a good opportunity to capture the 30 metre cascade. Here it is possible to hop off the bridge, cross the river and clamber up to the plunge pool. While not yet frozen evidence of hardened ice was clearly visible on the steep-sided gorge walls.
Another cave I wanted to locate was the now closed Yozawa Limestone Cave which required backtracking, passing the Kamiyozawa bus stop and making a short 500 metre hike along the trail towards Mt. Hinodeyama. Evidently once more I was out of luck as last summer the boarded up homestead finally met its fate and lay forlornly as a sorry pile of twisted metal and timber. It's not clear when the Yozawa Cave was discovered but shut up shop back in 2000 due to a lack of visitors. Eyeing some photos from its heyday looked like a cool spot to visit with chains and ladders guiding you into its spelunking chambers. The last cave in the area I didn't have the chance to check out was the Mitsugo Limestone Cave which is shut during the winter months.
Access: take a 30 minute bus ride from Musashi-Itsukaichi Station (bus stop 1) and get off at the Odake Shonudo Iriguchi bus stop (480 yen).

The City Mouse and the Country Mouse2009-04-20 16:10Once there were two mice.They were friends.One mouse lived in the country; the other mouse lived in the city.After many years the Country mouse saw the City mouse; he said,"Do you come and see me at my house in the country." So the City mouse went.The City mouse said,"This food is not good,and your house is not good.Why do you live in a hole in the field?You should come and live in the city.You would live in a nice house made of stone.You would have nice food to eat.You must come and see me at my house in the city."
The Country mouse went to the house of the City mouse.It was a very good house.Nice food was set ready for them to eat.But just as they began to eat they heard a great noise.The City mouse cried," Run!Run!The cat is coming!" They ran away quickly and hid.
After some time they came out.When they came out,the Country mouse said,"I do not like living in the city.I like living in my hole in the field.For it is nicer to be poor and happy,than to be rich and afraid."

Keep updated with the latest news at The Bend Motprsport Park!
100 Years of Motorsport to be on Show at The Bend Classic
The annual event is set to be the most spectacular motor sport event held in South Australia since March this year, with two days of on-track action set for this September 5-6.
It's set to make for a stunning Father's Day weekend at The Bend, with the sprint format – rather than wheel to wheel racing – encouraging rarer and seldom-seen cars out of their garages and onto the circuit.
This year the event celebrates South Australia's history in the sport, ranging from the 1950s Elfin Prototype that launched the famous local racing car brand, to Formula One machinery that raced on Adelaide's streets in the 1980s.
More than 50 entries have already been received for the two-day Super Sprint event, which sees cars racing against the clock in more than 10 different categories across the weekend.
"The Bend Classic is a celebration of historic road and race cars, and we've got lots of owners keen to dust of their precious classics to get them on track, some of them for the first time this year," said The Bend Motorsport Park Marketing Manager, Michael Rossi.
"Our focus this year is on South Australia and its incredible history in Australian Motor sport.
"Typically, The Bend classic encourages interstate competitors and last year we had cars from as far away as Western Australia and Queensland. Given the obvious travel restrictions in place this year replicating that has been a challenge, however we have been thrilled with the reaction from local competitors who are bringing some incredible machinery out to The Bend.
"The response has shown that South Australia is the motorsport state – and The Bend is proud to showcase that."
The event will showcase the broad scope of motorsport and motoring in South Australia with a broad array of vehicles to participate across the weekend.
Confirmed entries already include a 1919 Dodge Speedster that at one hundred years old, will be the oldest car ever to compete on Australia's newest circuit. At the opposite end of the performance spectrum, at least six Formula 1 cars – all of which raced at the Adelaide Grand Prix – are also among the current entries.
Cars from each decade from the 1910s through to the 2020s will be on track or on show at the event.
A nod to Holden's Adelaide heritage will also form part of the event, with several iconic cars from the brand set to participate on track, and a larger presence to form part of the off-track display.
The Event will also include some of the latest and greatest Supercars, both on track and on display in The Bend's Welcome Centre.
"A Lamborghini SuperTrofeo will be on track and the incredible McLaren Senna will be here too," Rossi said.
"We've also got some surprises in store that might be Australia-firsts and we can't wait for people to see what we have planned, there are vehicles that you just won't see anywhere else.
"The event will suit people of all ages and especially families. The Bend is a huge venue with open, wide spaces and plenty of room for everyone so it's going to be a great way to celebrate the Father's Day weekend and the history of South Aussie motorsport."
The Bend Classic will be held over two days this September 5-6, with spectator admission free of charge and a full on-track program planned across each day. Learn More

Have you lost money with financial advisor Lisa Casper of Milwaukee, Wisconsin? We are investigating allegations made by FINRA (the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority), against Lisa D. Casper. FINRA barred Lisa Casper from the securities industry after she failed to respond to an investigation. FINRA was investigating Casper after she was terminated by her former brokerage firm, Robert W. Baird & Co., for allegedly forging her name and inappropriately accessing a customer's funds.
Lisa Casper was a financial advisor and registered representative of Robert W. Baird & Co. from May 2013 to June 2017. She worked at a branch office in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
Brokerage firms like Robert W. Baird & Co. have a responsibility to adequately supervise all representatives who are registered through their firm.

Because skating on natural ice, weather plays a major role when it comes to nordic skating. Condition of the track may change rapidly even during the same day, even though the track is maintained every day. In the diary below there is updated the most important news conserning the tracks: Depending on winter, skating tracks usually opens end of December/start of January and closes around end of March.
Maintenance of skating routes has ended! Warm nights for several days and warm days forecasted for the rest of the week, so all route signs will be collected away.
However there might come great skating conditions next week: Snow melts from ice and cold nights return, so there might be possible to skate on large areas at the lakes. If these conditions come, we will inform of guided skating tours in diary.
Ice became soft now and more water came to the routes, ice is not skatable anymore. Re-opening needs a cold night temperature, which is not forecasted for following days. So routes are closed at least for few days, we will check the situation on monday again.
Although warm nights, skating route still open! Some water on top of routes but can be skated, at least in this morning&early afternoon.
Rentals from main building between 10-16, lunch buffet in restaurant 11-15. The waffle cafe along the route is closed now.
Tracks maintained and the condition & weather is good! Start from southpoint of Tuunaansaari. Forecast looks good for tomorrow and friday, but weekend is unsure due to warm forecast. We will see how it goes.
Track are closed today due to last night snowfall: There was approx. 10cm of water on top routes, which didnt freeze before the snowfall - all routes have been opened today to continue the skating season, but ice is unskatable today, as lot of water.
Work will continue tomorrow - looks good amount of freezing temperatures for the night so tomorrow we skate.
Track closed today, tomorrow morning it will be investigated.
At 10.30: Tracks open and in great shape! Start from Tuunaansaari southpoint. Little amount of freezing temperatures forecasted for weekend, today skating can be done, but saturday and sunday is unsure, we will inform before 10 am on both days.
At 15.25: Ice starts to get soft now, no cold forecasted for following night, so routes closed almost certainly on saturday. Situation will be checked on sunday morning, lets hope for cold nights.
Equipment rentals between 10-16 (returns can be done to our restaurant), waffle cafe open along the skating route daily between 11-16.
Great ice and weather! Haataansaari route is now also open.
Great skating conditions continue! Track in really good shape on majority of the tracks. Waffle cafe is open between 11-16 every day along the route, rental open every day also. Welcome.
Great ice and great conditions, overall the best ice of the season. Starting point from Tuunaansaari southpoint (900m from Rental). Equipment rental open between 10-16 every day and the waffle cafe is open between 11-16.
Today 0 degrees and snowfall, right now some water on top of routes, not recommended to go skating. If not much of snow today, on friday and saturday should be great skating conditions.
The night of tue-wed might be cold enough for re-opening the tracks, there is now some water on the routes which needs enough cold night. We will check it tomorrow around 9 am.
Temperatures continue to go up and down, a bizarre winter. Routes closed, as there hasnt been cold nights in few days: Little bit of water on top routes+the surface ice is soft under the skate, so its now unskatable. This years ice is a bad quality ice, which means that during warm days it gets soft easily (compared to usual ice conditions).
Re-opening needs a cold night (minimum estimate around between 5-7 degrees of cold in the night), which is forecasted between wed-thu night. We will check the situation daily, as a change of just few degrees might change the forecast. Equipment rental from restaurant the start of week.
Routes open, great condition in the morning. Route will most likely get soft in the afternoon, as there was no cold night. Skate in the morning.
Routes have been skated through, great conditions for experienced skater and ok conditions for beginners, especially in Kaarnalahti-route.
Rental open today until 21.00, our restaurant serves until 23.00, evening skating event starts at 18.00. On the weekend the rental is open between 10-16.
No luck always in the route making: Yesterdays snowfall in 0 degrees and high wind did some damage to a great looking track condition on some spots as the weather got colder right after - routes have been maintained now, the routes are on good condition and the sun makes the tracks even smoother!
Starting point of the tracks is now transferred to southpoint of Tuunaansaari, 900m away from Rental.
Tracks open today, will most likely get soft in the afternoon. Very likely to be closed tomorrow due to warm weather. Forecast of thursday&friday looks good.
At 13.50: Routes closed, ice gets soft now. Routes most likely closed tomorrow also. Forecast of thursday, friday and saturday looks good.
High wind and sunshine helped us to make the previous bad spots to better condition, now the overall condition of tracks is good! Kaarnalahti and Valkialampi-routes are excellent.
Equipment rental open every day 10-16, waffle cafe open between 11-16.
The night was cold enough, today great skating condition this day! Tomorrow most likely route closed, as there is no freezing temperatures forecasted for next night. Route will be again on monday.
Great weather, however not much of cold last night and even less is forecasted for following nights, which is critical. Very difficult to tell if track is skatable during saturday and sunday. On weekend head to the route (after checking the diary) in the morning, as it gets soft in the afternoon most likely.
Services open every day: Equipment rental open every day between 10-16 (from tomorrow), waffle cafe at the route is now open also every day between 11-16. Customers using own equipments can purchase tickets from our cafe-restaurant, open on saturday at 9.00 and on sunday at 8.00.
WED 13.2. AT 11.40 Routes open again!
Great days of skating ahead: We had some luck with the weather finally, right now 10km of routes open and its partially on great condition also! Forecast looks good and enough cold for following days, weekend is unsure as it forecasted very warm days: These dont matter if the nigths are cold, it unsure still.
at 9.55: Routes open at least the morning, as there was no freezing temperature last night, the ice surface goes soft later on. Route instructions from rental.
at 12.10: Routes start to be very soft, within 1 hour or so the ice is not skatable anymore+it pushes water to the routes. Routes will be closed and now we wait for cold nights, which is necessary to re-open the tracks. Forecast shows (if no snowfall) that there could be skating conditions again around next weeks wednesday.
Routes opened in morning and now good to skate, but weather forecast shows warm temperatures for following days and nights. Saturday should be ok condition to skate, but sunday-tuesday are a questionmark (if there is no freezing temperatures in the night, most likely not possible to skate). Situation will be checked tomorrow morning.
Skating routes open and condition good/great (check the update of 1.2.).
We have to make huge amount of work to maintain the tracks daily, huge amounts of snow on the ice and more keeps on coming with high wind and temperatures that go up and down. Tricky weather forecast for the following weekend, but at least for the next following days the track is open and good to skate on.
Tracks have been cleared from snow, 10 km of good tracks open!
FRI 1.2. 10 km routes open!
Saturday equipment rental open is 10-15, waffle cafe open sat-sun 11-16. Sunday the rental is either from main building or directly from rental 10-15, depending on weather.
Route open from Harjun Portti to Kruunupuisto (6km total) and frozen to good condition, also route open in Kaarnalahti (2km). Goal is to have this Kaarnalahti route also in good condition on the end of the week and to open few more kilometers (Valkialampi) after that.
Equipment rental open between sat and sun 10-15 (tracks will be maintained before 10 am), waffle cafe opens along the skating route on weekend! Cafe open sat and sun between 11-16.
Today open 1,8km route, starting from tomorrow a route open from Harjun Portti shore to Kruunupuisto, back and forth this is approx. 6 km route! At least Kaarnalahti-route we will try to open within some days.
Equipment Rental open sat and sun 10-15.
Here we go again, from Harjun Portti shore to Tuunaansaari southpoint (900m, back and forth 1,8km) there is a skating track re-opened and on very good condition!
We have a goal to open additional track to Kruunupuisto within a week (2-3 km), right now every hundred meters demand a lot of work and it needs proper weather. Rentals and tickets from restaurant between 10-15 on the following weekend.
Skating tracks cannot be opened (most likely) in many weeks, the last weeks snowstorms causes a lot problems, which we cannot resolve with work - we have to wait for right weather conditions, it may take 1,2 or 3 weeks. Update will be written when there is an estimate to tell.
Great condition for cross-country skiing as there is a lot of snow, also snowshoeing can be done!
Skating tracks cannot be opened unfortunately. There is impossible ice conditions to make a track this week, with huge amounts of snow+water on the ice, tracks cannot be opened in many days. The most difficult start of season in 13 years of making the tracks.
Different preparations will be made every day but right now we cannot make an estimate, that when the routes can be opened again. Might be from few days to 1-2 weeks.
Tracks closed today due to storm, hopefully some routes open tomorrow afternoon.
Very difficult conditions continue: High wind and blizzard causes the skating tracks to be closed for today, perhaps tomorrow also. Routes cannot be opened right now, as a lot of heavy snow on routes.
7 km of tracks open today!
Skating tracks unfortunately closed. Not enough freezing temperatures. There is a possibility that 5 km route is open tomorrow on saturday, but it is unsure.
Cross-country skiing network is open. Equipment rental from restaurant between 10-15.
Challening conditions continue, very much of snow and temperature just below zero, very difficult conditions for ice skating and especially track maintenance. There is 13-14 km of tracks open, but just few kilometers in good shape. Start from southpoint of Tuunaansaari.
Forecast cannot be made for following days that are the tracks open or not during new year, we must go one day at a time. :) Days without snowfall and cold temperature is what is needed.
9 km of tracks open today, challenging conditions on the ice due to snow storm of yesterday. More tracks will be opened in few days.
Thu 20.12. Tracks opened tomorrow!
Difficult ice conditions, but skating tracks will be opened tomorrow! For beginners we recommend to rent kick sleds, as this years ice is quite uneven for beginners. Experienced tour skaters can skate easily. Ice will be maintained daily and its condition will get better as time goes on.
Tue 18.12. Skating season opens most likely on friday 21.12.
Tracks will most likely be partially opened on friday!
Lakes have frozen and we are expecting the tracks to be partially opened in 3-5 days, as more ice is coming due to cold weather! More info will be given soon.
Cross-country skiing tracks not yet open.

Hydroxymethylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase inhibitors increase new bone formation in vitro and in rodents. Results of epidemiologic analyses evaluating the association between use of these cholesterol-lowering drugs, bone mineral density and fracture have been mixed.
Women (n = 24) with osteopenia, assessed by broad band ultrasound attenuation, were randomized to simvastatin 20 mg, 40 mg or identical-appearing placebo for 12 weeks. Fasting lipid profiles and biochemical markers of bone formation (bone-specific alkaline phosphatase) and resorption (N-telopeptides and C-terminal propeptide of type 1 collagen) were measured at baseline, 6 and 12 weeks.
Plasma low density lipoprotein-cholesterol concentration fell 7%, 39% (p < 0.01 vs baseline) and 47% (p < 0.01 vs baseline) after 12 weeks of treatment with placebo, simvastatin 20 mg and 40 mg, respectively. At baseline, bone marker concentrations were similar in the three treatment groups. At 6 and 12 weeks, bone marker concentrations were not different from baseline, and no significant differences in bone marker concentrations were observed between treatment groups at either 6 or 12 weeks.
Among osteopenic women, treatment with simvastatin for 12 weeks did not affect markers of bone formation or resorption.
Hydroxymethylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG coA) reductase inhibitors increase new bone formation in vitro and enhance trabecular bone formation in rodents . These effects have been attributed to blockade of the mevalonate pathway upstream from the site of bisphosphonate action, which is thought to be mediated by inhibition of farnesyl pyrophosphate and geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate synthesis [2, 3]. Currently available treatments for bone loss do not induce new bone formation; consequently, Mundy's observations excited considerable interest in the potential utility of a class of drugs with proven long term safety for a new purpose, treatment of osteopenia or osteoporosis.
The initial analysis in humans of the relationship between HMG coA reductase inhibitors and fractures was carried out on the Study of Osteoporotic Fractures and the Fracture Intervention Trial cohorts. In that report Bauer et al. described a nonsignificant reduction in hip (RR 0.30, 95% CI 0.08,1.18) and non-spine fracture (RR 0.83, 95% CI 0.61, 1.15) associated with current HMG coA reductase inhibitor use . A trio of analyses of health-maintenance organization members, New Jersey Medicaid/Pharmacy Assistance/Medicare recipients, and the United Kingdom General Practice Research Database, identified a significantly lower risk of fracture among HMG coA reductase inhibitor users, with odds ratios ranging from 0.48 to 0.55 [5–7]. However, subsequent analyses of the UK General Practice Research Database and Women's Health Initiative Observational Study, found no significant reduction in fracture [8, 9] or bone demineralization  associated with HMG coA reductase inhibitor use.
A retrospective study of changes in bone mineral density in Korean men and women with type 2 diabetes mellitus revealed higher bone density in HMG coA reductase inhibitor-users compared with non-users after 14 months of follow up .
Post-hoc analyses from randomized cholesterol-lowering trials have evaluated effects of HMG coA reductase inhibitors on bone markers and fractures. A 12-week randomized trial in non-osteoporotic individuals found no effect of simvastatin or atorvastatin on C-teleopeptide. Bone-specific alkaline phosphatase was reduced 6% (p < 0.001) among patients assigned to simvastatin, but not atorvastatin . A large randomized trial of pravastatin in non-osteoporotic subjects (n = 9014, median age 62 years), identified no reduction in fracture risk . However, pravastatin, in contrast to other HMG coA reductase inhibitors, did not induce bone morphogenetic protein-2 formation in vitro, and consequently might not be expected to affect fracture risk.
This report describes results of a double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized trial of simvastatin's effects on bone markers in women at high risk for osteoporosis.
Eligible women were identified as high risk for osteoporosis by virtue of a T score of -1 to -2.5 measured by broad band ultrasound attenuation (Hologic Sahara). Women could not be taking estrogen, synthetic estrogen receptor modulators, calcitonin, bisphosphonates or HMG coA reductase inhibitors. A negative pregnancy test was required for women of child-bearing potential, and normal serum asparate aminotransferase was required for all subjects. A stable dose of calcium and vitamin D supplementation was permitted. This was a single site trial, conducted at the George Washington University Lipid Research Clinic. Participants provided informed consent in a form approved by the George Washington University Committee on Human Research.
Eligible women were randomly assigned (permuted block) to placebo, simvastatin 20 mg or simvastatin 40 mg taken orally each evening. Fasting plasma samples were collected for lipid profiles at baseline and after 12 weeks on treatment. Two serum samples were collected for bone markers, 1 week apart, prior to initiation of therapy; baseline levels were the average of these two values. On-treatment samples were collected at 6 and 12 weeks. All serum samples were collected at the same time of day to minimize diurnal variation, and stored at -70°C until assayed.
Simvastatin 20 mg, simvastatin 40 mg and identical-appearing placebo tablets were provided by Merck (West Point, PA). Bone-specific alkaline phosphatase (bone ALP) (Alkphase-B, Metra Biosystems, Mountain View, CA), cross-linked N-telopeptides (NTx-I)(Osteomark NTx Serum, Ostex International, Seattle, WA) and C-terminal propeptide (CTx-I)(Metra Biosystems, Mountain View, CA) of type I collagen were measured by monoclonal immunoassay. Plasma lipids were measured as previously described .
The study objective was to compare the effects of simvastatin and placebo on bone markers. The hypothesis was that simvastatin would reduce bone resorption and induce new bone formation in this study population. Difference in plasma bone marker concentration between treatment groups was the primary outcome.
Allocation sequence was generated by a statistician in the Medical Center Biostatistics Unit; serial envelopes identifying double-blind treatment assignment to drug A, B or C were prepared by a staff member who did not work on this trial. This individual also prepared labeled containers of study pills. The study coordinator, who randomized subjects by opening sequential envelopes, remained blinded to treatment assignment until after laboratory assays were completed, as did the physician investigator. No subjects were unblinded during the trial.
The sample size of 8 subjects per treatment group was chosen to be adequate to detect with 95% confidence a 29% reduction in NTx-I, allowing for a dropout rate of 10% in the design. A 40% reduction in NTx-I was considered to be clinically relevant. Changes within treatment groups were assessed by paired t test; differences between treatment groups were assessed by unpaired t test. StatView software (SAS Institute) was used for analyses.
Characteristics of the study population are summarized in Table 1. Twenty-four women, ranging in age from 46 to 76 years, were recruited between February and May, 2001. Age, blood pressure, heart rate, body mass index, creatinine and T score were similar in the three treatment groups. Two women in the simvastatin 20 mg group did not complete the study: one developed intolerable drug side effects and one unexpectedly moved abroad. No on-treatment blood samples were available for either of these women. The remaining 22 women are included in analyses of plasma lipids and bone markers. Among these 22 women, adherence to study medication, assessed by pill count, was 94%.
Plasma lipids at baseline and on treatment are summarized in Table 2. After 12 weeks, total cholesterol fell 2%, 25% (p < 0.01 vs. baseline) and 26% (p < 0.01 vs baseline) on placebo, simvastatin 20 mg and 40 mg, respectively. Low density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol was reduced by 7%, 39% (p < 0.01 vs. baseline) and 47% (p < 0.01 vs baseline), respectively. No significant changes from baseline to 12 weeks were observed for triglycerides or high density lipoprotein-cholesterol within treatment groups. When treatment groups were compared, total and LDL-cholesterol were significantly lower at 12 weeks in women randomized to simvastatin 40 mg compared with those assigned to placebo (p < 0.01 for both). LDL-cholesterol was also lower among women in the simvastatin 40 mg group compared with the simvastatin 20 mg group (p < 0.05). All subjects' serum asparate aminotransferase levels remained normal at 12 weeks.
Bone marker concentrations are shown in Table 3. At baseline, levels of bone ALP, NTX-I and CTX-I were similar in the 3 treatment groups. At 6 and 12 weeks, bone marker levels remained similar in the 3 treatment groups. Plasma concentrations of the three bone markers at baseline, 6 and 12 weeks are shown (Fig. 1) for the 8 women assigned to simvastatin 40 mg/day. Neither upward or downward trend is apparent for any of the three bone markers.
Bone markers in women randomized to simvastatin 40 mg daily. Plasma concentrations of bone ALP, CTX-I and NTX-I at baseline, and after 6 and 12 weeks of simvastatin 40 mg qhs are shown for each woman assigned to that treatment group.
This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-ranging trial identified no effect of simvastatin on markers of bone formation or resorption at doses which significantly inhibited HMG coA reductase activity. These results confirm and extend those of Chan et al. who found no effect of simvastatin 20 mg on bone ALP or urine NTX-I  in hypercholesterolemic Chinese subjects. Strengths of the current study include the osteopenic cohort, greater ethnic diversity, placebo-controlled design and inclusion of a higher dose of simvastatin as well as the 20 mg dose.
In addition to the possibility that statins actually have neither favorable nor unfavorable impact on bone metabolism in humans, there are several potential alternative explanations for these observations. First, simvastatin may not be the optimal choice of HMG coA reductase inhibitor. Simvastatin was effective both for stimulating bone morphogenetic protein-2 formation in vitro, and inducing bone formation in rodents , rendering this possibility less likely. However, the elimination half-life of simvastatin is relatively short , and allows for the possibility that agents with longer half-lives, such as atorvastatin , might demonstrate efficacy. Second, the dose of simvastatin used may have been inadequate. At the time this trial was designed, simvastatin 40 mg was the highest dose marketed. Subsequently, the 80 mg dose has become available with similar safety profile to the 40 mg dose; the possibility that a higher dose might affect bone turnover cannot be excluded.
Third, the sample size may have been too small to detect changes in plasma concentrations of bone markers. For example, in a 12 week randomized comparison of 2 doses of simvastatin and 2 doses of atorvastatin, with about 200 subjects in each study arm, simvastatin reduced bone ALP by 4.1% and 6.3% from baseline levels at the 40 mg and 80 mg doses, respectively . That trial was designed to evaluate lipid effects, not bone markers, so included men and women with unknown bone density status. In interpreting these results, the observed reduction in bone ALP may indicate inhibition of bone resorption, but this was not reflected by a parallel reduction in CTX-I. Further, if new bone was being created, as was observed in the rat model, one might expect bone ALP to rise, as in Paget's disease , rather than the observed fall. The change in concentration of a bone marker which reflects a clinically meaningful change, is also an issue. With alendronate, for example, 80% reductions in markers of bone resorption were observed within 6 weeks . Thus, a change of a few percentage points may not be clinically important. A comparable reduction in NTX-I to that observed with alendronate would have been readily detected with the sample size studied.
Fourth, the ultrasound entry screen for low bone mineral density may have yielded false-positive results, leading to inclusion of some women with normal bone density. Manufacturer specifications suggest that in 90% of women with Sahara T-score less than -1, osteoporosis will be confirmed by dual x-ray absorptiometry . Finally, the duration of treatment may have been insufficient. Alendronate significantly reduces bone marker concentrations within a few weeks , but effects of HMG coA reductase inhibitors may not be apparent so quickly.
Our study revealed neither deleterious nor favorable effect of simvastatin on bone turnover during 12 weeks of therapy, and does not support a role for simvastatin as a clinically useful modulator of bone remodeling. Further study is needed to determine whether other agents or regimens may prove more promising.

Last week, mobile phone cameras and social media made it possible for me to watch the real-time inundation of my hometown, Duluth, Minnesota, by a 500-year rainstorm. Up to ten inches of rain fell on a region with full water tables. Roads throughout the area are washed out, bridges damaged or gone, sidewalks buckled, and low-lying neighborhoods are full of mud and water. Tons and tons of clay sediment stain Lake Superior orange — visible via satellite. Familiar places are underwater, on Weather Channel highlight clips.
I expect home will feel different when I visit next week. Physically, the damage will be there, people will be talking about it, and I will feel like I've missed something significant, something that people who live in northern Minnesota should not have missed.
But I don't live in northern Minnesota any more. And each time I return, minor changes stand out in sharp relief from the people and places I used to know. These changes are gradual — it takes leaving a place for a time, and returning, to see them.
Flyfishers abhor change. We obsess over preservation and restoration. Mainly of rivers, the goal being the protection of the fish and fishing for ourselves and future generations, but also of tradition, sport, legend, genetics, and heritage.
One of the reasons we love rivers is because they seem constant. The current is always there, with its unending sound. It can literally drown out all distractions, and along with the rhythms and aesthetics of flycasting, a river can completely enthrall us as a place of peace and beauty. Add in willing fish, and highly addictive moments of perfection begin to occur. Before long, we need our river.
But the truth is that a river is the essence of change. It is never the same two days or two years or two moments in a row. Banks erode, trees fall, sand shifts. Water rises and drops. The very idea of a river is difficult — is it the streambed? Or the water? The streambed is just earth. Stones and mud. The water is transient: on its way seaward and only just passing. It's never the same water, even though we think of it in those terms.
And so goes Duluth, or any other home town. The people and places have always changed and continued to change by the moment. It's true that when I leaned off the clutch in 2009 and headed for Michigan that I would never return to the same home; but that had been true my entire life, every time I left for the weekend or for the afternoon.
The Lester River is a small swamp-born Lake Superior tributary that flows past the front yard of my childhood home. It was and is my Curtis Creek. It has never held a lot of trout, as it enjoys little or no cooling groundwater, but it has for the last century or so supported a small wild population of brook trout, supported by occasional DNR stocking. Most of my childhood summers were spent chasing these fish. They taught me about patience, determination, reward, and mosquitoes.
I've watched the Lester evolve over the years. The trend seems to have been toward warmer water and mucky weed growth, and therefore away from ideal brook trout habitat. When I fished it last summer, I caught one twelve-inch painted brookie and one twelve-inch wolfish northern pike. He could have been an explorer, down from one of the upstream lakes, or he could be a harbinger of something more significant.
But last week somewhere around ten inches of rain fell on the small but already-full Lester River watershed, and the river went over its banks in a violent way. The bridge on our driveway remains, but had water running around it and up to its iron I-beam foundation. Two grey telephone poles have spanned the rapids next to the bridge since before its construction. Perfect for sitting and watching the water pass underneath and trout rise in the pool below. Those poles are now somewhere downstream.
They say it's a 500-year storm. That could (in a stretch) be taken to mean that no white man has ever seen the Lester River with this much water in it. I have no idea what it means for the trout. I'm hoping that the muck and weeds will wash out, and exposed gravel and boulders and newly-fallen trees will provide fresh habitat for the brook trout that remain. I'm hoping that runoff from washed-out roads and new construction upstream doesn't choke it with clay, sand, and sediment. Either way, it will be a new river.
Then again, it's a new river every day. All that changes is how new.

Home/Questions/What does the "Gospel according to Mary (Magdalene)" say?
– but the original text was very likely written in the 2nd century.
Mary, probably Mary Magdalene – although she is always referred to only as Mary – is seen as a source of "secret revelation", since she seems to maintain a close relationship with the Lord.
In the fragmented text available to date, there are details on an encounter in which the disciples ask the risen Christ questions and he responds.
Christ then sends them to preach the Good News to the gentiles, and he leaves. The disciples are left sad, without confidence to fulfil their mission. Mary encourages them to carry on with what they have been asked to do.
Peter asks Mary to communicate to the disciples the words they have not heard from Jesus, since they knew that Jesus "loved her more than the rest of the women". Mary talks about one of her visions, full of Gnostic connotations. In the context of a world which is disintegrating, Mary explains the difficulties the soul has to overcome to reveal its true spiritual nature in ascending to its eternal resting place.
When she finishes relating her vision, Andrew and Peter do not believe her. Peter doubts the Lord preferred her to the other disciples, and Mary starts crying. Levi defends her ("You, Peter, always been hot tempered") and blames Peter for attacking Mary.
Then Levi encourages the disciples to accept that the Lord preferred Mary to themselves, and invites them to go and preach the Gospel. So they finally do.
This is all the testimony left on the fragmented texts of this gospel. Not much, certainly. Some authors wanted to see in the Apostles' opposition to Mary (in some way also present in the gospels according to Thomas, Pistis Sophia and in the Greek gospel according to the Egyptians) a reflection of the existing confrontations within the Church in the 2nd century. That would indicate that the official Church would be opposed to the esoteric revelations and leadership by a woman.
Considering the Gnostic nature of these texts, it is more plausible to believe that these "gospels" do not represent the true circumstances in the Church, but do reflect particular conflicts and antagonisms towards the Church. We could reason that an idea proposed from a sectarian group should not be extrapolated in an attempt to understand more general circumstances of a larger reality. Just as we understand that an exception should never become the rule.

'Schatz' follows Yale to wealth, influence, grave
Michael "Mike Schatz" Abbatemarco, a top lieutenant in Frankie Yale's Brooklyn organization, was found dead, slumped behind the wheel of his still-running automobile at 4:15 a.m. on Oct. 6, 1928. The car was parked in front of 2421 Eighty-Third Street in a residential section of Gravesend, Brooklyn. Abbatemarco, thirty-four-year-old underworld ruler of the Gowanus area, had been shot in the forehead, neck, right cheek and chest.
Abbatemarco's wealth and underworld influence appeared to dramatically increase following the death of his boss, Yale, in July. Some believed that Mike Schatz held a monopoly on area beer sales. During the summer, Abbatemarco purchased his flashy new automobile and moved from 321 First Street in Brooklyn to 38 Seventy-Ninth Street, a two-story yellow brick building in the borough's Bay Ridge section.
Abbatemarco
The night before his death, Abbatemarco played poker with friends at a Gowanus coffeehouse, Union Street and Fourth Avenue. His buddy Jamie Cardello reportedly walked him to his car after the game at about 3 a.m. Some suggested that Abbatemarco was accompanied by a gangster named Ralph "the Captain" Sprizza. (Sprizza was later charged with participating in the Abbatemarco murder.)
A Brooklynite named Jack Simon observed the parked Abbatemarco coupe while walking to work through the area. Simon told police he soon heard gunshots from that direction and saw a man get out of the car and trot through a vacant lot toward Eighty-Fourth Street. Police later found a discarded handgun in the lot.
Abbatemarco's funeral was said to be nearly as spectacular as that of his former boss, despite widow Tessie Abbatemarco's efforts to keep the ceremony more subdued. His coffin was encased in silvered bronze. The cortege included more than one hundred cars and fourteen cars of floral offerings. A large tower of roses topped by a fluttering dove was sent by Anthony "Little Augie Pisano" Carfano, a top lieutenant to Manhattan Mafia boss Giuseppe Masseria and Masseria's choice as Yale's successor in Brooklyn. Carfano did not personally attend. A military honor guard - eight riflemen from the Eighteenth Infantry at Fort Hamilton - took part in the funeral due to Abbatemarco's military service during the Great War.
Following Abbatemarco's death, members of his underworld organization. including his brother Frank, nephew Anthony and relative Joseph Magnasco, merged into the Profaci Crime Family, forming the President Street-Carroll Street crew that later gave rise to the rebellious Gallo brothers.

[Video Guide] How to hide more troops than just by shelter or reinforcing!
This is a little known trick that I've been using to hide a ton of troops. Essentially darknests are an easy way to maximize the amount of troops you can hide because you're essentially sending them to players without popping fury. This comes in handy if you want to avoid getting into situations where you're unable to shield because of sending reinforcing players and this option helps alleviate that problem.
I will say that you are at the will of your own guild members to relinquish your troops after they have joined the rally, but that is a minor concern compared to them being killed. Watch the video if you want to know how you can actually increase it and all the ways I go about using it! Subscribe to my channel if you want more tutorials related to Lords mobile!
