Bible Verse Of The Day - Sunday, 9/12/2010

But the king of Egypt said, “Moses and Aaron, why are you taking the people away from their labor? Get back to your work!” Then Pharaoh said, “Look, the people of the land are now numerous, and you are stopping them from working.” ~ Exodus 5:4-5
There has always been a pattern of God calling his people out of their normal rhythms to take time to worship Him. Even in this famous story of when Moses confronted the Pharaoh of Egypt, the main thing that God wanted was for his people to cease from their labor, come aside and worship Him. This pattern offends those who see work as a way toward power. Work is a good thing, but the Sabbath is a weekly reminder that God wants to deliver us from our false identities of power and bring us back to Himself.

"For if you forgive men when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive men their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins." ~Matthew 6:14-15
As we remember the events that occurred on 9/11, we do well to also remember our obligation as Christians to forgive those who have sinned against us. Can we, as the people of God, forgive those who attacked us? To forgive those who we agree with is nothing extraordinary, but to forgive those with whom we have differences displays the nature of God. When we rebelled against God’s rule, He sent His Son to forgive us. Now, as those who owe a debt to God that we cannot pay, we are obligated to extend the same mercy to others. Forgiveness proclaims that justice belongs to God and therefore frees us to call upon his mercy for ourselves.

Hermann Hearsay Invests In The Future

Hermann Hearsay is investing in the future! Today HH announced that we have made a major capital purchase of new photograpic equipment. We are upgrading from our Nokia camera phone to a brand new Nikon Coolpix L22 digital camera. HH purchased the new camera, carrying case, flash memory card and lithium batteries from Granneman's Radio Shack Store located on Market Street in Hermann.
Hermann Hearsay owner, Truman T. Tiger, said ... "We believe in purchasng locally whenever we can. Others may drive to Washington, Warrenton, Columbia or St. Louis to make major purchases while giving our local businesses nothing but the "small crumbs" of their purchasing dollars. Our media market is local, and we will always support our local businesses by buying from them whenever we can."
Frank Furter, our IT guy, is reading the Nikon owner's manual and reviewing the DVD which came with it. After Frank learns how to operate the camera, he will train Lois Lame, Dick Schaefer and me. We are all eager to get our hands on the new camera!

Watkins Weekend Weather Report - Friday, 9/10 thru Sunday, 9/12
Published by Frank Furter, IT Manager, Weekend Weather Reporter, Custodian and Coffee Brewer
Date: 9/10/2010
Hi folks! This is Frank Furter. I've been asked to take over the weekend weather reporting from Charlie Farquharson. It turns out that Hermann Hearsay can no longer afford Charlie, so I've been asked to give weather forecasting a shot. Apparently I work a lot cheaper than Charlie ...... and well, they're already payin' me to do some other stuff anyway! This is my second weekend weather report. I'm startin' to get the hang of it!
The Watkins Weekend Weather Report is now sponsored by local Watkins Independent Associate Dick Schaefer (#378589). Dick doesn't actually pay us cash money for sponsoring the weather report. Instead he supplies us with Watkins cleaning products for the office. These are the products I use everyday when I clean our office and wash the windows. You see, I'm also the custodian here at Hermann Hearsay.
Please support Dick by buying his high quality Watkins products made from "all natural ingredients".
Welcome to my second weekend weather report for the local Hermann area......
Today: Showers early with isolated thunderstorms in the afternoon. High 76F. Winds ESE at 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 30%.
Tonight: Thunderstorms likely. Low near 65F. Winds SE at 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 80%.
Tomorrow: Scattered thunderstorms in the morning, then partly cloudy late. High 81F. Winds NW at 10 to 20 mph. Chance of rain 40%.
Tomorrow night: Clear. Low 53F. Winds NW at 5 to 10 mph.
Sunday: Sunny. Highs in the low 80s and lows in the mid 50s.
A lot of cool events and festivals in Hermann this weekend folks! So go out and enjoy them! Take your umbrella with you on Friday and Saturday morning. After that it's going to be really nice!

Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show it by his good life, by deeds done in the humility that comes from wisdom. – James 3:13
In an age of celebrity we can mistake wisdom and understanding as dynamic speaking or well packaged products and events. That’s not the way that James sees wisdom. James is always after how our core beliefs show up in our deeds. Is there a humility that marks our life or have we jumped on the bandwagon of self-branding for the sake of promotion? What would people say if they could look past our Facebook image and see our life? This is where God looks and it’s where we need to pay attention as well.

Post #700 .....
Published by Jimmy Oldsun, NDRIRSRWRAFTC & Editor
Date: 9/9/2010
Hermann Hearsay has reached a major milestone today! This is our 700th posting. Our first posting was on July 5th, 2009.
Since our initial start-up, Clark Kant has retired as Editor In Chief but still sits on our editorial board, Lois Lame has been promoted to Assistant Editor, and I have been pomoted to Clark's old position. We have also hired Frank Furter to handle our IT issues, report on the weekend weather forecast, keep our offices clean and brew our coffee.
Some people want to shut us down. Since our start-up, we have been harshly criticized on this site as well as on other sites for some of our views, we have been threatened with two lawsuits, we have been criticized and intimidated by certain county officials during public county commission meetings and we have been smeared in email messages sent to various people in the county. The question is "Why?" Why is it that these people want so desperately to discredit us and silence us?
Yet even with all the determined opposition we have faced, we are still here. We are still speaking out on issues when we feel it important for us to do so. With your continued support and indulgence, we shall continue to speak out.
Our website format has evolved during the past 14 months. We expected that it would. We have listened to your input, and we are working hard to meet your needs. Keep on giving us your input. We will listen to it and consider it seriously as we move forward.
We have "branded" our identity with our mascot 'Herkimer', and we have created our own designer line of golf apparel featuring our unique and irreverent 'Hermann Hearsay' trademarked logo. No other local news media organization has their own designer line of golf apparel.
It has been difficult to remain financially solvent in our highly competitive local online news market. But we have managed to keep our overhead low, and we are managing to stay in business. As we move forward into 2011, we will seek to improve our profitability. We would like to buy a fancy digital camera with a great big telescopic lens like our competitors have. We're shopping around for the best deal. We would also like to be able to buy gourmet coffee for the office. Folgers is OK, but we'd like to move up to Starbucks, Dunkin' Donuts or maybe some nice organically grown coffee.
The main thing is that we've been having fun ..... and we hope that you've been having fun too! We'll keep speaking up, and we hope you'll keep reading our opinions and responding with yours!

| 'The Yellow Kid' The Yellow Kid emerged as the lead character in Hogan's Alley, drawn by Richard F. Outcault for The World in 1896, which became one of the first Sunday supplement comic strips in an American newspaper, although its graphical layout had already been thoroughly established in political and other entertainment cartoons. The Yellow Kid was a bald, snaggle-toothed child who wore a yellow nightshirt and hung around in a ghetto alley filled with equally odd characters, mostly other children. With a goofy grin, the Kid habitually spoke in a ragged, peculiar ghetto argot printed on his shirt, a device meant to lampoon advertising billboards. |

"It was not through law that Abraham and his offspring received the promise that he would be heir of the world, but through the righteousness that comes by faith." ~ Romans 4:13
Abraham stands as a primary example of the gospel. Abraham did not receive God’s favor because of his looks or abilities. It was simply that when God made a promise Abraham believed it, even when that promise was so huge Abraham couldn’t comprehend it. Though this promise wasn’t realized until much later, Abraham still lived his life in line with the promises of God. This is what made Abraham righteous. Not his actions, but the deep trust that guided all of those actions toward God.
