Legendary Edition
Can hardly wait for Sept 14th. That is the day Halo Reach is released to the masses. Yes, I have my Halo Reach Legendary Edition reserved and ready for pick up at 12:01 am. I also ordered it through Game Stop who has said they will include a code for an amour permutation that is exclusive to Game Stop.
I am also going to take the time to play the original Halo game, as there may be some additional “flair” that is offered to people who play the original Halo game (on the PC, not XBOX).

how long will you let yourself run on empty before you give up?
how many things will you try?
how many things will you yearn to experience?
before you realize?
A full blown commitment is required to be a disciple. What does the Word of God teach?
A true disciple loves Jesus above all else. (Luke 14:26). Decisions you make for Christ may not be popular with your family and friends.
A true disciple lives like a dead man. (Luke 14:27). It does not mean pains or trials. It means living like you have died to your old self.
A true disciple considers the value of a strong finish. (Luke 14:28-30). The value of finishing well as a disciple. Don’t be a spiritual dropout. Examples of dropouts – Noah and Solomon.
A true disciple surrenders to a stronger king. (Luke 14:31). We are one king. God is the other. In the past kings who surrendered to other kings would become slaves. Are you willing to be a slave to Christ?
A true disciple stays pure to preserve goodness. (Luke 14:34-35). Salt was used as a preservative in the day of Jesus. We must learn to stand up and speak.
This is challenging for me. I look at this set of passages and I realize I am further away from being a disciple of Jesus than I thought I was.
God, over the next year guide me to become more of a devoted follower of Christ.

One of my classmates from high school has been busy…
In 2007 Bridget Bergquist and Joel Blum of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor discovered that Hg’s two stable magnetic isotopes, 199Hg and 201Hg, sometimes exhibit slightly different behavior from that of the five stable nonmagnetic isotopes. The difference is attributed mostly to coupling between nuclear and electronic spins, which facilitates electron spin flips in certain photoinitiated reactions. Consequently, the varying isotopic compositions of natural samples can provide information about the Hg cycle and sources of Hg pollution.
I am excited to hear that former classmates are doing well…
