Hi, this is Pastor David Rosales of Calvary Chapel of the Chino Valley, California. Today I want to answer the question, what do I look for when I begin a new relationship? Over the years I have taught on the topic of marriage and have taken time in the message to encourage those who are unmarried and desire to date to prayerfully consider what they should be looking for when it comes to dating. I remind them that people normally end up marrying the person that they are dating. And because this is true, it is important to establish a criteria when it comes to going out with someone. Doing so is not unwise but in fact is actually one effective way to save them from making a very bad decision. It is a good thing to resist rushing into a dating relationship because it can ultimately cost you. This is a very difficult thing to deal with yet we need to remember that there are worse things than being alone and one of those things is being married to the wrong person. My advice to those of you who are unmarried and who desire to be married is for you to hold out for God's best for you. You might want to remember that at this moment you are free to serve the Lord without marital distractions and as you serve the Lord it is possible to have His peace and often this time of singleness has a way of being used to give you spiritual satisfaction as well as having the effect of making you into the best person that you can be and you can become the best person your future mate could ever marry. As I mentioned a moment ago, I normally will take time in my teaching on marriage to encourage the singles in our fellowship to evaluate their criteria related to future mates. I also encourage those who are presently dating to evaluate their present dating relationship. This is not un-spiritual, it is actually wise because it rests on counting the cost as it pertains to not only dating but to making the decision to make an oath to God on their wedding day that they will love one another and remain faithful to them for the rest of their lives. It is sad to say that many seem to be more careful when they buy clothing or a car than when they are making decisions that will impact them as well as all who love them for the rest of their lives. Here are a few questions that can help you to think about your present or future relationships. First, are they really Christians? What is it about them that makes you believe that they are? Some say no, but I am going to win them to the Lord. This is called missionary dating and it's wrong. You will ultimately reap what you sow and will be terribly hurt. Second, if they are believers, how would you describe their walks with the Lord or does that even matter to you? Third, is your walk with Jesus improving or is it decreasing in its importance for you now? Fourth, do you as a couple ever read the word, fellowship, pray together, share your faith with others? Fifth, do you attend the same church? If not, are you willing to change churches and if you do, who will lead in such a decision? Does it matter to you at all? Sixth, who is the spiritual leader? If you can't make it to church, do they go without you?  It doesn't get better when you are married because while dating, he's usually presenting himself in the most favorable way. Seventh, what about them do you like the most? Their looks, personality, education, spirituality. Eighth, are you physically pure? Are they pressuring you to have sex? Are you pressuring them? Are you living together? That's called fornication. You need to repent. Ninth, do you find yourself making excuses for them to your friends, your family, even strangers? Tenth, how do your parents feel about this person? Does it matter? And if not, why not?  Twelfth, do you think that they are the best you can get so you might as well live with it? Thirteenth, are they overly dependent, selfish, jealous, do they have a hot temper?  If so, get out of that relationship. Fourteenth, if you're dating, do you have to ask permission to do something from them or to go somewhere? Why? Fifteenth, do they control you? Do they tell you who your friends can be? Do they have a temper? The scripture says, do not make friends with a hot tempered man. Do not associate with one easily angered. You may learn his ways and get yourself ensnared. Sixteenth, how do they feel about your family? And what do they say about them? Seventy, how often do you see them? Do you rush home and call them after the date ends? And if so, why? Eighteenth, are you doing domestic duties for them? Cooking, cleaning, doing laundry? Why? Nineteenth, when it comes to finances, are they always between jobs, borrowing money from you or your friends? Never paying the loan back? Do they like nice things and charge up their cards to buy them? Do you end up paying for the dates and excusing it by saying, well, we're gonna get married? Twenty, what things do they do that irritate you? Can you live with those things? Twenty-one, are they free to date? If you answer that they are presently separated, that simply means they're still married without going into the reason that they are separated. Just remember that if they are not free to be married, then they are also not free to date. And finally, is this really God's best for you or are you just anxious? Listen, you need to wait for God's best choice for your life. Serve God first while you wait on Him to prepare the circumstances that are related to meeting the one you will one day marry. I met Marie while teaching a Bible study. I wanted marriage but prayed to be put to sleep to my desires in the way that Adam had been placed in a deep sleep. And it was shortly after I had prayed this that Marie came into my Bible study. She got saved and ultimately she became my wife. To my unmarried friends, please don't rush into marriage, wait on the Lord, serve Him, take your desire to Him, wait on Him. Remember, God knows what you need before you even ask. He knows the one who will fill those gaps in your life the best. This is David Rosales, pastor of Calvary Chapel of the Chino Valley, California.


10 Most Impressive Mega Projects in Ghana. Ghana is a country in West Africa. This country's infrastructural status has grown progressively over the years, which has contributed to a huge amount of economic growth and development in several aspects. Over the years, Ghana has seen a renewed focus by the government and the private sector on infrastructure projects such as RIA estates, road expansion projects, among others. Today, African Reloaded educates you on the 10 most impressive mega projects in Ghana. Simp back and enjoy! 10. Signature Acra. We all know that Acra is the capital city of Ghana, and this beautiful signature building is located in Acra. This property is located in a prime location of Acra. This luxury has a unique, stylish design which appears appealing to the eyes. The Mitchell Eddy Group, known for their outstanding work, gave this building their magic touch, and it is today admired by all. This project took off in January and according to the plans for this building, the building is home to 2009 apartments, and the property price ranges from $85,000 to $350,000, you know. When I spoke of luxury, I was not joking because this building defined luxury all the way. Among others, facilities like a swimming pool, restaurants, a Bailey Room, and a garden are features of this property. 9. Pocuease Interchange Acra. This $9 to $5 million project is the first in Africa. It is funded by the African Development Bank and the Government of Ghana. This interchange Pocuease is a road project which is expected to cut across several states in Ghana and erase any form of traffic in Ghana. 8. Ghana National Cathedral. This holy sanctuary of God was established in Acra, the capital city. This cathedral was built to have a 5,000-seat capacity, and it has many chapels, a rehearsal center for the choir, a music hall, and others. With all this, we get to see why this project cost a fortune of $100 million. The building was designed by the British Ghanaian architect, David, who was the very person who designed the National Museum, which contains African-American history and culture. This project took off in 2020, and we should expect a conclusion in a long time. 7. Otsubai Lamprey Interchange. This project will be a big relief to the citizens of Ghana. Ghana's President, Nana Akyufo-Addo, and his administration proposed the idea, which is expected to cost $135 million. After the idea was accepted by many people, even the Spanish investors, Ghana received assistance from the Spanish credit facilities in the UK. The first phase of this road will consist of a two-rail interchange with a storm beneath the road. The road will lead from the market to the central business district of Acra. Meanwhile, the second phase will involve the widening of roads in three links-carry ways, which will be used by buses. 6. Kumesi International Airport. This airport underwent an expansion which cost $300 million. This project was started by the former Ghana president in 2018. The project was backed up with the reason being to promote tourism, and their point of interest was specific regions. In the past, this transport medium has been operating and to carry out 20 flights a day. Now that this expansion has taken place and has covered a kilometer of 2.3 from an initial 1.9 kilometers, it has increased its capacity to accommodate .7037 and 800 aircraft, as well as handle 1 million passengers. Also, the expansion came alongside the construction of two extra shopping mall buildings, restaurants, and car parks. The airport is said to be completed this year, making this airport the second international airport in Ghana. 5. Petronia City, Takarati. This city is a very vibrant city in Ghana and has a very friendly and welcoming environment. Due to this, the city has been chosen to serve Ghana. The modifications the city is about to get will make it serve as a boost to the Ghana economy. All this will be possible because of her mineral resources in the western region of the nation. The city version is to make her the West Africa Business Corps and promote services across oil, gas, mining, and financial cooperation. This city will create relationships among Apex International and allow their penetration into the city. This project was introduced in 2018 and its full aim is to provide the first fully integrated business hub for West Africa's oil, gas, and mining industry. 4. Marine Drive, This is a 1.2 billion public-private partnership project which cuts across the coastline of Ghana. The Marine Drive will consist of a business district, a bustling environment, a 15-floor office complex, a tourist resort, a parking park, hotels, playing grounds, and a beach. This multi-billion dollar project will not only provide employment for Ghana, but will also provide an enviable platform for the rest of the world. 3. Project Acra Sky Train, This Sky Train will be the first in Africa. In order to get this project off the ground, Ghana's president met with the Risky Train Consortium and made a deal to allow them to construct the Sky Train, which will allow the nation to upgrade and advance its railway systems and will contribute immensely to solving the traffic problems in Acra. This Sky Train will have the capacity to accommodate over 380,000 people at once, plus the estimated price is 1.2 billion. 2. Ghana's Railway Development and Expansion, This multi-billion project aims at improving transport and development. This railway will connect all the major cities and major resource areas within the country. This railway covers a kilometer and 1,394 acres of land. This project is expected to be finished before 2023. The Ghana president has awarded contracts and negotiations are ongoing for new contracts for other sections of the rail. The 300 kilometers, which is the biggest will kick off soon, whereas the 575 kilometers have been awarded to the Coastal Railway Network. 1. Ghana's Petroleum Project, Since the discovery of oil and gas, Ghana's government has been working tirelessly to ensure that the country fully benefits from the blessing. A lot of work has been done in the past, but has been the government's main focus. The hub is expected to take off soon. The aim is to meet the demand of the West African subregions and, hopefully, the entire continent. The government has given approval for the establishment of this petroleum in the Western region. It should be noted that this hub will accommodate a refinery to process crude oil into various petroleum products. This improvement does not only bring development to the country, but also creates jobs for citizens. The hub is to cover an area of about 20,000 square meters. This is a lot of space to serve employment. That is what we had on today's edition. For more videos like this, subscribe to this African Reloaded channel. Do have a blessed day!


So we are going to do SOD, PVP, healer tier list for level 40 and disclaimer this is going to be a prediction list. We don't know what runes are coming in yet. We don't know what rune changes they're going to do. So the best guess we can do is looking at the spells and talents that the healer specs are going to be getting close to 40, around 40 or between 25 and 40 if they're like unique things like innervate stuff like that. If some specs get good ranks you know 38, 40 stuff like that then they're going to be more impactful than the lower ranks. So with this information we can look at where things currently are on the tier list and try and adjust it slightly to where we think you know whether we think it's gaining power compared to everything else based on the talents and stuff they learn and the spells they get or whether we think they're going to comparatively lose some power and we're going to move it down in the tier list. So we're going to start out with disc and I think disc is still going to be S tier for just everything basically. It's probably going to lose a little bit of power on its own in world PVP but dueling I think it's still going to be strong and in premades and group PVP I think it's probably still going to be the best healer mainly due to double the spell but it's getting good ranks of shield and flash create a heal your tanky within a fire mana burn is always nice and you get a load of mana efficiency stuff from disc talents. Now the main downfall of it is the fact that you are if you want to take PI you're not going to have healing focus and you basically need healing focus to to run penance because of the pushback on it in SOD so you can't realistically going to be running PI that much unless you're going to give up the penance basically or play way more risky in the back sorry way less risky in the back so you know aren't targeted at all which is kind of a boring play style in my opinion but yeah that might be uh might be a thing so yeah disc and S tier is going to be my first ranking. Next up we've got resto druids and resto druids are picking up innovate they're getting travel form they're getting a nice rank of rejuvenate 40 they're getting tankier bear form healing touch at 38 and then the regrowth is at 36 the regrowth not as nice but the other two definitely big pickups and then the wrath at 38 is really nice as well considering they have a wrath for free rune in addition to this the talents that they are able to get things like ns reflection and swiftmen which are all going to help their burst healing which is kind of lacking at the moment and on top of that I think resto scales really really well with healing so as the phase is going to go on you know as as we're going to get higher and higher level all this nice new gear that's coming in from these raids is going to have a lot more healing on like the the level 25 stuff has way more than you know you normally would see on 25 gear and this really really benefits druid and I think druid is going to just continue to scale upwards as they they get more bonus healing and they get more efficient because of it life boom is going to start being really a problem their hearts in general are going to be really really really strong and it will get to the point where you won't be able to kill a target if it's hot it so I don't think druids are quite there yet but I think that they are justified in a tier I think they're going to be solid they have a lot of utility and make a pretty good backup healer for a priest I would say next up we've got holy pala holy pala was in c tier before they still don't get a fence sorry they still don't get defensive to spell they get at 42 which is a huge problem for them so I am hesitant in moving holy pala up that much they get a few new new things but not that much in the way of actually utility you know they'll get a little bit more healing a little bit more mana efficiency from their talents but nothing to to ride home about and they're really lacking just raw healing I think at this point they get shadow resura a bit longer bubble but this isn't going to make that much difference compared to what they normally have right now they're getting plate it's probably the biggest thing they're going to be more tanky 40 hodge which is just increased duration and then holy light at 30 which is going to be nice but I just don't think it's enough with the lack of dispel so actually bring them up but I just don't think they're going to be comparative with with rest of druids honestly they they're very close to still being c tier a lot of their runes that they currently have aren't great things like divine sack up actually magic on here so they're dispellable and yeah overall paladin's getting shafted a little bit so maybe they get some love with runes hard to say but we're not basing this tier list around that so we'll have to wait and see for that next up we have got rest of shaman and I think rest of shaman is a spec that could very well push up into s tier next uh next phase depending on if they get riptide I think if they get riptide they're going to be very very strong as long as riptide is like scaled properly basically um and isn't just healing for about two I think the riptide is going to fill a big gap in their kit and they have a lot of healing but also a lot of utility you know they have grounding coming in they have earth shock 36 they got double purge loads of healing chain heal ns decent mana um yeah reincarnation win fury term then you know the list goes on so shaman has great great utility and at the moment they're kind of restricted in their healing abilities because they have to cast quite long heals actually do any decent healing and they're not that mana efficient um but if they're able to run something like water shield next patch and just have all of this extra utility and healing you know on top of riptide if they get riptide I think they're bs tier but with all this stuff I think a tier is uh a good place for them I think they're they're around where druids are they're a different kind of healer I think they're a more offensive healer than druids druids have kind of got the the defensive utility whereas rest of shamans have got the offensive utility so I'm gonna I'm gonna put rest of shamans in in a tier with rest of druids and again makes a nice backup healer for the for the disc priest for sure and then finally we have got and this one's a bit boogie is arcane mage and I think I find this one quite hard to quite hard to rank personally uh just because you don't see that many arcane mages and you see even fewer actual good arcane mages that are really taking advantage of their whole kit you know they a lot of them they get pigeonholed and stuck into just only healing and you don't see any decent utility coming out you forget they've still got poly they've still got novus they've still got cs they still got this whole kit that mages have and and you kind of just see them almost tunnel visioning into the the healing role but they actually do have really good aoe healing so yeah it's uh it's definitely something that could potentially be on the radar or something is really really strong in bgs going forward and and I think they potentially will have the best aoe healing in the game if uh if tuned correctly and if people actually get to grips with them but I think that is the thing right people are still learning how to play the spec well in in pvp and it's just not kind of reached just full potential yet as a result of that um I'm going to put it at the moment in b tier I think these two healers are still a bit stronger than it but it definitely if people improve on it it definitely has the potential to move up and fill that more offensive sort of utility role plus sort of midfield healer role where you just really want that aoe healing uh I think it's better than paladin so paladin is like here like halfway um but yeah I'm reluctant to put paladin c tier since they are getting some nice stuff but yeah I just don't think that paladin is on the same level um as any of the other healers uh you'll notice I've actually left out holy priest holy priest is basically the same as disc priest in the way that it operates uh you'll just take more points down in the holy tree and have basically more raw healing power uh it's very awkward with 40 talent points and I think the main reason you would go for it is if they do something juicy with light well on the runes so maybe it could happen we'll wait and see but I think at the moment the disc talents are just more suited towards playing the sort of that healer healer role than the holy talents are uh due to the mana issues that the spec actually has so yeah that's why I've kind of left holy off at the moment but you could potentially see holy priests next patch uh so don't count them out so yeah that's it that's the the healer tier list not as many as the dps so look look it's a shorter video but that's my my picks and remember the runes could change everything so you know take this potentially with a pinch pinch assault this is the best info we've got right now so if you want to pick something based on this it's better than flipping a coin right looking forward to the next the next patch a couple of weeks it's gonna be good have a good one


What's up everybody Jason for Jaspis case breaks calm 2020 Prism panini prism no huddle football two box break Two random teams each number six just sold out.

What's the word, y'all? We won a chaos in the play-in and we got that tonight. I do wanna say I'm filming this right after the game is done. Like Anthony Davis finished shooting LeBron or giving post game interview. So I'm letting you know that now because by the time this comes out, you might've got stories and stuff like that. This is right after the buzzer reaction to the play-in tonight. And when I talk about stories that might be out, I'm highly expecting to see a story when I wake up tomorrow morning that says Anthony Edwards played through a shoulder sprain or something like that. Because you did not know he had a hard fall early in this game and this was the most passive I have ever seen Anthony Edwards. I'm talking whether it was random game in October or the post, this was the most passive I have ever seen him. And we got that last play-in in the overtime, the one that kind of was the sealer where my colleague got the steal and it's basically a three-on-one fast break and Anthony Edwards got the ball in there down by two and he kicked it off to Torian Prince. Of course, I guess it's a good look, right? Torian Prince is a good three-point shooter and stuff. But I just feel like normal Anthony Edwards sees a one-on-one opportunity with him and little Dennis Schroeder and he's trying to go through him for easy lay but in this one he passed it off and it felt like a lot of this game he was off the ball, not even being a decoy because he wasn't moving. So I just, there's no way he wasn't playing through an injury and if he wasn't playing through an injury I'm just surprised at this performance because last year, you can't say it's the lights are too bright because last year he went into a playing game and dropped 30 and then he went into a playoff series and had a hell of a series. So it can be the lights being too bright. He's Anthony Edwards. So I'm just assuming it was some type of injury because boy, I was disappointed. Before we get deep into it, let me remind you about our presenting sponsor for this season, PrizePix.

So if you're interested, hit the link in the description down at the PrizePix app and use Co-Kinney because you're matching all the deposits up to $100. Please play responsibly. I think this game is gonna be remembered by it being the close game and the Dennis Schroeder shot and the eventual Anthony Davis foul.  I made a tweet that it was genuinely some of the worst basketball I've watched in a while. And that's it. I've watched the Bulls 82 times this year, y'all. The last six minutes of the fourth quarter plus the overtime as well, the Timberwolves were as cold as anything can be. And we had fluidity, we had great passing, great cuts, great shot making over the first couple quarters for the Timberwolves and then that all went dead. This was like a defensive, two defensive juggernauts potentially going hand to hand. And I can't tell if it was just great defense or just the offense was awful. Yeah, on both hands, but specifically in the Timberwolves because they had this game. And they were under talented, they were the least talented team of the two, obviously, especially when Mr. Jayden McDaniels and Rudy Gaubert. But they had this game. My colleague gave them one of the best performances we got from my colleague in a minute. Carthage Townsend is early in the game, was dominant, one-legged fadeaways and stuff. But the real turning point in this game for me is when Carthage Townsend picked up that fifth foul where he was jostling with Anthony Davis so positioning for a rebound and he hooked them a little bit more than he should have and they got the fifth foul. And that was the thing we talked about on the podcast that was gonna be the determining factor in this one particular game is whether or not Carthage Townsend stay out of foul trouble. The answer was he could not. And then later down in the stretch, because he was playing with five fouls, it just felt like he couldn't have been as aggressive on the defensive glass and Atlantis of Anthony Davis buckets or Anthony Davis getting that great old lob pass from LeBron James coming down and Carthage Townsend can't do anything because too much contact is now foul. So him standing out of foul trouble would have been big, but it's Carthage Townsend. It's what he has done for the entirety of his career. And if you look at his number since he came back from this injury, I mean, he's been in really deep foul trouble. We're talking five fouls, a lot of those games and it happened again today. Chris Vince tried early in this one to do the, since we don't have a backup center, we gonna have Nathan Knight play that in last long.  And at least early in this one, Carthage Townsend, oh, not Carthage, that's Kyle. Anderson was everywhere. He's getting blocked. He said the shots. And then of course, all of that faded away as well. Gotta give a lot of credit to the next men on the Lakers. Dennis Schroeder with D'Angelo Russell not having any ice in his veins today and missing all of the shots. Dennis Schroeder came in clutch, obviously with the big old shot there, but more than that, I mean, he played some of the defense down stretch and he also hit some more shots down there, but it was a game that they should, it shouldn't have been as close as we were. They won it. Now they can look into being a 7C, going to get some Grizzies and getting that match up, because that's gonna be fun. Is Shannon Sharpe gonna pull up to a game? I hope so. You would have wanted it to be a little bit better than being gassed against this team that was missing J.D. McDaniels and Rudy Gobiere, but a win is a win and now they can look forward to the next series where it's not gonna get easier. I was telling my boy Mike, cause we were watching this together on his Twitch, that this was the easiest it was gonna get. You know, this is the easiest match that they could have got. So just because they in, don't think the, sigh relief, like you have to go do it now. The goal wasn't just to make the playoffs. I mean, eventually it was, right? You have to starting off as a 13C. You wanted to just get in there. Now you're in and now it's not like, all right, the season is won. You want to go get that next championship, right? That is the ultimate goal and it's only harder from here. You got the Memphis Grizzly. If you get through that, you got to go and get the Warriors or the Minnesota or the Sacramento Kings. It's late. And then you got to get the Denver Nuggets or the Suns or whatever. Like this is a very hard path. So this is the easiest and it's done. And I ain't gotta move on to the next one. And for the, for the Timberwolves, I mean, next game they will have Rudy Gaubert back. It didn't look like they really needed him on the defensive side today, which is, which is kind of eye-opening. Cause that's where his value lies. I mean, it doesn't really lie on the defensive, on the offensive side. I just thought that with no Rudy Gaubert, the game from Anthony Edwards was going to be a lot better. Again, I'm just expecting that's going to be some type of injury that get called down. Right on cue, Dane Moore tweeted, Chris Finch mentioned Anthony Edwards was dealing with cramping. So it was something, but if you just get a C minus performance from Ant, this is probably a win instead of, I mean, it was like a D minus game. I'm discredited into the defense. The defense was good, but like, that's not, you, they need the offense. When you go six minutes without scoring in the NBA game, you need offense. So I would say it was a D minus game for real. The first game today wasn't as interesting, wasn't as exciting because the Atlanta Hawks just ran away with a game that not really many people predicted the Atlanta Hawks were going to win. I had the Miami Heat personally, because it just felt like they've had Tray Young's number. I mean, you look at all the stats in the last 13 games when these teams went hand-to-hand, Tray Young was basically terrible for his standards, only comparing them to the normal version himself. He had been bad throughout the stretch of this. But you know what? I cannot look over the fact that Bam Adebayo was so, so very disappointed to me today. The defense was good. The defense of Bam is always going to be there. But boy, oh boy, I just, they needed more. I wanted more. As a guy that's been a fan of Bam for a long time and know what he can be on the offensive side. It's just, none of it was there today. He got outplayed by Klickapala, who ended with like four total points, I want to say. So he had killed on the glass and it just wasn't enough. Kyle Lowry had his best game as a heat. A heat? I do this all the time. He had his best game on the Miami Heat and it didn't matter. Jimmy Butler had a sticker. That was the guy. He's the guy. It's a one game elimination. Who do you want in your team? It's a short list of people. And you don't get to like number six or seven without mentioning the name Jimmy Butler. He didn't have his game. He wasn't on his game today. And this is what I meant when I made the video a little while ago talking about how four through whatever of the Miami Heat are some of the worst in basketball. You saw that on full display today where the Atlanta Hawks were able to rely, at least today. I don't know if it's gonna last in the series next round. Let's be real. The teams that are winning the play in out east is not making a lot of noise, right? By Donovitz, it's a debate. Anyeka, Kongu, Jalen Johnson. They had four players off their bench to give them double-digit points today. While the Miami Heat, Kyle Lowry give them 30. And that's it. They had two starters that didn't crack 10 and bam, just got over 10. So we talk about the lack of depth for the Miami Heat. That was on full display today. And you had the contrary for the Atlanta Hawks. And I was super impressed. For a team that had been wavering all season long being one game under 500, 500, or one game over, this was one of their best performing games. And that was with Dejante not having to go crazy. Or Trey Young, he had a good game, but this won like a supernova game for him. It felt like the others all came to play today. And that was something that was hit or miss for them all season long. Again, it feels a little bit different talking about the Easter Cards playing because whoever wins these two games and we see the Atlanta Hawks on the first one, they're probably gonna get steamrolled in the first round of the playoffs. We're talking about the Milwaukee Bucks in the Boston Celtics, two of the favorites to win the entire thing. So shout out to Atlanta for making it. I think a lot of the conversations were steered around the report from Kevin O'Connor. They even mentioned it on the broadcast that Kevin O'Connor came out this report about the Atlanta Hawks having a green light to potentially facilitate trades around Trey Young, yada, yada, yada. The heat dig on a low run was like 22 to four run or whatever, but it didn't feel sustainable. And it wasn't. It wasn't. Anyway, we'll see y'all tomorrow. We'll talk about Bull's Raptors for whatever reason. And then, okay, see, Pelicans. That's the one that we looking for.


My name's Regan. I work for Anthony J. Lyon, International Detective Bureau. They call me The Lion's Eye. Wednesday at 9 and CBS brings you Jeff Regan, Investigator, starring Frank Graham as Regan, with Frank Nelson as Anthony J. Lyon. So stand by for mystery and suspense and adventure in tonight's story of The Little Man's Lament. They called it Margate Mansion, but the name didn't fit.  The people inside didn't fit either. A crusty old lady who talked backwards, a redhead with an urge to travel fast. But it was Junior who won first prize. He was half Einstein and half Hollywood playboy. Only when this boy played it was with poison. It started on a Tuesday. I was headed down Taft Avenue on the way to the Laundromat. I had a date with a washing machine and a blonde cashier named Gloria. That's when a cab pulled up beside me and the lion hopped out.  I could tell by the 50 cent smell that we had a new client. Oh, Jeffrey, Jeffrey, my boy, I'm glad I caught you. Get back in the cab, fatso, I'm busy. But I have to talk to you. I was just going up to your apartment. Have a good time. I'll be out all day. Now, Jeffrey, is there any way to talk after all I've done for you? After the many opportunities I've given you to help your fellow beings in distress? I've worked three weeks without a rest. I've got to wash my socks. Wash your socks? You can talk about a thing like that when I'm here to present you with a golden opportunity? An opportunity to demonstrate our humanitarian sentiments? A chance to lift one who's in trouble? How much did you lift from him? A hundred bucks, and it's not a him, it's a her. Oh, it's really a simple job, Jeffrey. Very simple. I've just been over there. Lovely old house, fine old family. The bar gates, flower of the old south. Gone to sea. Well, yes, but you know how it is with descendants of old families. Fresh young growth choked back by the weeds of the old family stock. The fresh new plants smothered by decay and ruin. Try Vigaro. Reagan, you don't seem to understand. We've been retained by Mrs. Margate. It's about her nephew, Hillary Margate. Strange youth, very strange youth indeed. If Mrs. Margate needs protection from him, I tell you it's a very serious matter. Well, so's my laundry. Reagan, will you listen to me? There's another choice? Yes, see Mrs. Margate, root out the facts. Get her a gardener. She doesn't need a gardener, she needs you, and don't give me any more trouble. Okay, okay, sweetheart. Here. Wait a minute, what's it? My laundry. Put the shirts and socks in a washing machine, put two bits in the slot, and stay away from the blonde, she doesn't like cigar smoke. Reagan, this means you will see Mrs. Margate? Don't try to be coy. You knew I'd see her the minute you stepped out of that cab. I walked up vine and turned right past Franklin. All the places up there are old, but Margate Mansion was old when William S. Hart was Gene Autry. A bunch of turrets made out of wood that termites wouldn't look at. But I was looking at what was standing in the front bay window looking at me. Red hair and wide eyes and a complexion like skim milk. She was what answered the door when I twisted the old fashioned bell. Hello, I saw you from the window. I saw you seeing me. Come in. Come in, please. Thanks. I hope you don't mind the disorder. I'm afraid I don't... Your name? Reagan. Oh. Sit here, Mr. Reagan. Please don't mind the dust on the sofa. No one nice ever comes, so it doesn't matter.  I want you to stay. It shows. You're not married or anything like that, Mr. Reagan. Nothing like that. Oh, that's nice. I'm not married either, Mr. Reagan. I heard it was Mrs. Margate. Oh, that's my aunt. I'm not married at all. Mr. Reagan, you didn't just come to see my aunt. I've got a lot of time. Oh, I've been foolish again, haven't I? Sometimes I get so mixed up. I'm... Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait, wait, wait. Yes, Mr. Reagan. What's your name? Gweatherlin. Mrs. Margate's niece? Yes. Hillary's your brother? Yes, Mr. Reagan. All those questions... Business. Business. International Detective Bureau. Your aunt's on the line for $100 worth. A detective? Well, that's polite for it. Oh, you shouldn't have told me that. You shouldn't have told me that at all.  I'm mixed up, Mr. Reagan. I can't tell. Gweatherlin! That's my aunt. Did I hear the front door bell? Don't say anything. Don't tell her. I did hear the front door. Well, Gweatherlin, who is this man? He's... Reagan. Reagan?  I've been expecting you. I'm gardening. I should have figured. It was... I have a green thumb, as they say. Follow me. Go to your room, Gweatherlin. Yes, auntie. Gweatherlin? Yes, auntie. I'm going. She went all right, like a rabbit at a Greyhound race. Only I wasn't sure this rabbit could stay ahead of the dogs. But right then, I had another problem, keeping up with Mrs. Margate. It wasn't the way she walked. It was her talk that wouldn't make... Go to the garden. My niece and my nephew, the problem is the way heavily on my heart, Mr. Reagan. Oh, this way. Family collapsing and falling to ruin. Just three Margates left, myself and the two children, Gweatherlin and Hillary. Only 52 years old with such responsibilities. Hillary? No, no, myself, of course. 52. But Hillary is the real problem. You follow me? Right behind you. What? Oh, yes, out this door. The garden. There. Do you see that pool by the date palm? Uh-huh. Fish, carp, Mr. Reagan. He concocts things. Hillary brews things. Poisons.  Hillary? The carp. We found him next morning floating belly up, stock bright green. Hillary F. Margate Sr., the carp. We named our fish after the dear departed members of our family. Nice custom. Yes. Hillary poisoned the carp when he was only 146 years old. The carp. Yes, yes. Come along. Hillary was only a boy at the time. Such a problem, Mr. Reagan. Oh, here. My vegetable garden. Have an onion, Mr. Reagan. Delicious. Yeah, yeah. Look, Mrs. Margate. Eat the onion, Mr. Reagan. George. George. George is my gardener. I'm over here, Mrs. Margate. Oh, well, you can go out back and cut the weeds, George. Mr. Reagan and I have some private matters to discuss. Yes, ma'am. Excellent, ma'am, George. Excellent. And be sure you get them all, George. We must be rid of the weeds. Yeah. Okay, ma'am. Now, we're alone, Mr. Reagan. The onion, go on, eat it. As I was saying, Hillary, that boy is such a problem. Yeah, as you were saying. Yes, yes. Good, aren't they? Mrs. Margate, what is it you want me to do? Do what I want you to look after Hillary. I was told you wanted protection. Well, it's the same thing, isn't it? No. Hillary needs a nursemaid. That's not our line. No, see here, Mr. Reagan. International Detective Bureau has already agreed to handle my case. Mr. Lyon himself accepted my check. He'll accept anyone's check. But he promised to help. Well, then talk to him. I'm talking to you. I'm explaining. You're explaining nothing. You've given me a lot of double talk and I have a feeling that's all you want to give me. That makes sense. All right, all right, all right. You're going to force me to say what I hoped never to say to anyone. Not anyone. My life is in danger. I can believe that. My tea. Yesterday, I noticed the odor of almonds. I'm listening. I didn't drink it naturally. Naturally. Naturally. Hillary brewed that tea, Mr. Reagan. My nephew. Now you've said something. Where is he? Ocean Park, the shooting gallery. Shooting gallery. Yes, he's strange. Very strange. He brews things, collects guns, practices shooting. You won't like him. I suppose I'd go talk to him. Well, you'd better. As I've said, Mr. Reagan, I don't wish to be murdered. I headed the car down La Brea to Olympic and then out to the Ocean Park Pier. It was afternoon business, popcorn and sailor style. The shooting gallery had one customer. A kid in a corduroy sport coat with a face like a cantaloupe out of season. He was taking shots of the little swinging targets. You didn't need the family album to figure him for Hillary Margaret. I walked over, but he didn't take the gun from his shoulder. Leeks. Come again? Leeks. Scallions. My name's Reagan. Allium Ascolonica, Mr. Reagan. Onions. You've been eating them. So? This suggests you're the private detective by my aunt. Bullseye? You read palms, too? I fancy myself an amateur detective, Mr. Reagan. I seldom miss. I notice. As a matter of fact, Mr. Reagan, I'm interested in hiring you myself. Oh, that's a switch. I think there's going to be a murder. Anybody I know? Yes. My aunt. Who plays the heavy? The heavy.  I am. Practicing? I don't need practice, Mr. Reagan. Even experts get the chair. Possibly. All right, Junior, let's start making sense. Very well, Mr. Reagan. My aunt is a domineering autocrat. Actually, I should hate to kill her, but I feel I must to protect myself, you understand. From what? You know, I dabble in poisons, Mr. Reagan. I am empoisoné, as the French say. Poisoner. When I was 15... I heard that one, yeah. Hillary F. Margate's senior, the carb.  My regrets. I get to the point. Ours is an evil household, Mr. Reagan. The last of the Margates, a decaying race. My aunt, for example, and Wethelman. I'm better. Then you understand that something must be done. This is an urgent matter, Mr. Reagan. It would be wise to take my case. One Margate for a client's too many. Very well, Mr. Reagan. But you want information. Perhaps I'll give it to you tomorrow. I'll phone you. As they say on the radio, you may save a life. Possibly your own. It made a real funny joke the way he said it. Only I wasn't laughing. And neither was he. I got in my car and started for town to tell the lion he'd been underpaid. All the way in, I kept getting a picture of a mechanical rabbit going around a track. I tried putting Wethelman's face on it. And Mrs. Margates, then Hillary's. The others didn't fit. Wethelman's did. I was still thinking about it when I parked on Hill Street and got out to walk. And that's when I put another face on the rabbit. My own. The guy who fell in behind me and started following was no greyhound, but he had squeaky shoes that slowed down when I slowed down. We stayed together for a block, and when I turned left toward the office, I wondered if he was an amateur. I found out when I sidestepped into an alley and pulled him in after me. All right, Busser, this is where you get off. Hey, say what the devil.  Let me go. Give me some answers. I... Talk. You want muscles, huh? Muscles? All right. I got him. He had him all right. And he knew where to use him. He had a bald head, and he used that too. Right in the middle of my stomach. I shouldn't have bent double, but I did. It was a setup. The next blow sent me around the fender of a truck parked in the alley. I went to my knees. When I came up, it was too late. The bald head was gone. But someone else was there. Mr. Regan. It was Gwethel and Margate. Mr. Regan, you should be careful. You all right? He was following me. No, Mr. Regan. No, he wasn't. I was going to your office. He was following me. She was ready to talk, but the fog in my head wouldn't let me listen. I got her around the corner into a bar. She waited until the waiter brought the drinks. You're too broad and straight, Mr. Regan. And if I may say so, this is a lovely tomato you are scorching into my humble parents. You said so. And may I say, Mr. Regan, I'm also partial to redheads. An account of my first love was a redhead. She played second flute in our orchestra. Sure. Keep the change. That was when I was with Stokowski. Ah, the Hollywood bowl, how well I remember. Me and my fiddle. We made together beautiful music. Me and the fiddle, you understand, not the redhead. She gave me nothing but the cold shoulder and account she was hot for a guy that played bass. Come on.  You don't wish to hear the story of my life, Mr. Regan? Well, it was the same way with Mr. Stokowski. The artist is lost in the world of today. All right. Now we can talk. I don't know, Mr. Regan. Who was following you? It doesn't matter. I'm used to it, Mr. Regan. Who was the mug? It doesn't matter, Mr. Regan. It's too late anymore. I thought... You thought what? I thought you'd help me, Mr. Regan. I was on my way to your office. Why? It's going to be trouble, Mr. Regan. Serious trouble. What says so? Everything. Hillary, my aunt. They're all acting so strangely. And those people who come to the house... People? Who? I don't know. But the man who was following me is one of them. Something strange is going on, Mr. Regan. Something terrible.  Don't you see? It isn't anything I can tell you. It's a feeling. A terrible feeling. Everything's wrong. I've got to have facts, lady. I don't... Wait. There's one thing. Yeah? The gardener. Mr. Hendricks. George? Yes. My aunt knows him, Mr. Regan. Better than just a gardener. Something else. What? George has been in prison. I know he's been in prison. I heard him say something once on the telephone. To who? I don't know. So much I don't know. That makes two of us. You don't believe me. You've got to believe me. Something terrible is going to happen. Sure.  Hillary? That's not it at all. It's me. They're going to kill, don't you see? They're going to kill me. After that, I couldn't get anything out of it that made sense. I loaded her in a cab and then walked over to Pershing Square to feed the pigeons. Maybe something would come to me. Nothing did, except the pigeons. After a while, I went over to the examiner moored to look up George Hendricks. There was nothing, not a word. But the lion has ways of finding those things out, so I went back to the office. The lion had information, all right, but not the kind I expected. Regan! Regan, where have you been? I've been calling every saloon in the city. You got the wrong one. I often wonder why I hired you. Okay, that's a way to steam. I'll tell you why, because you were supposed to be on the Margate case, that's why. What do you think I've been doing? I know what you're going to be doing. You're going to get out to Margate mansion right now and fast. They just found Hillary Margate in his room. He's been shot through the head. This is CBS and you're listening to the story of the little man's lament. Tonight's adventure with Jeff Regan, investigator. Here's a special word for those of you who are interested in setting up a retirement fund. One that will permit you to have some of the good things of life before you're too old to enjoy them. Join the payroll savings plan where you work and invest in United States savings bonds. Under this plan, your firm sets aside whatever sum you name from each paycheck and uses the money to buy savings bonds for you. Buy United States bonds and keep them.  Nothing made sense. There were three Margates, the old lady, her nephew Hillary, and his sister, Gwethelin. And all three of them wanted to hire me to stop a murder. Then the lion tells me Hillary Margate has just been shot. Well, one thing was sure, with three people to work for, one of them was bound to turn up dead. I put the lion to work looking up the gardener, George Hendricks. Then I hopped in the car and headed out to the Margate place off Franklin Avenue. By the time I got there, it was turning dark. Out front, a black and white mash said, police in big letters. But when the old lady opened the door, she acted as though she'd never heard of police. Oh, Mr. Regan, please come in. I'm sorry you didn't get to meet him. Hillary, strange boy. I met him. You did? Well, this way, Mr. Regan. Well, it's no matter. It was inevitable. Hillary's uncle, my husband, before he died, warned me something like this would happen. He was a young fool, Hillary. How did it happen? Happen? With a gun, of course. How else could one shoot oneself except with a gun? In here, Mr. Regan, we won't be bothered by them. Sometimes police can be so nosy. Do sit down. We shall have tea. With or without arms? I know what you're thinking, Mr. Regan, but I'm sure it had nothing to do with it. What did? Just a moment, Mr. Regan. There's someone at our door. Well, Gretlin? That you'd want me to tell Mr. Regan about Hillary. Yes. Good idea. Mr. Regan, I'll let Gretlin tell you. She was here at the time. Oh, she was a lovely woman. Gretlin's mother, my late sister. Well, go ahead, child. Go ahead. I got home about five.  No, no, no. Not there. Here. Yes, Auntie. Well, Mr. Regan, Hillary was in the gun room reading. I went in to talk to him, but he ordered me out of the room. He said he didn't want to be disturbed. He was concentrating. Go on. I left the room. A couple of minutes later, I heard a shot. When I went back, he was there. Hillary. On the floor, dead. Then you called the police? I told Auntie. She called him. They've been so nice to the police. They promised not to disturb me any more than necessary. Wasn't that nice? They're, um, in his room now? With Hillary, dear Hillary. You won't need me anymore. I think I'd better be going. Yes, of course. Gretlin, see Mr. Regan to the door like a good girl. Yes, Auntie. And come again sometime soon, Mr. Regan. We should have tea together. Thanks. This way, Mr. Regan. Mr. Regan, I've got to talk to you this way quickly. It's on your mind. It's about Hillary. Something he did tonight. Like what? When he came home before he was... before that. He had a book. A big book. He was reading it when it happened. Why would he read a book and then shoot himself? He got me. What was the title? I don't know. But when the police came, the book was gone. Where did he buy it? I don't know that either. I'm sure it's important, Mr. Regan. I'm sure of it. You don't think it's important? I don't know. I reach for answers. Sometimes I come up air. I know something else, Mr. Regan. It's about George. George Hendricks, our gardener. Yeah? He disappeared this afternoon after it. Go on. And he sent for him when the police arrived, but he wasn't in his room. The police were angry. They think he might have done it. And you think so too? I'm not sure, Mr. Regan. I'm not sure of anything now. She turned and ran into the house and left me with a lot of night air and cool breeze. If Hendricks had taken a powder, the police would check that angle. That left me with a book, a very big book. I walked down Franklin toward my car. Up ahead, I saw a small man in a black suit locking up a shop door. Over his head, a sign said Franklin Avenue Bookshop. That did it. I caught him before he closed up. I beg your pardon.  Yes, I know him. Why? Was he in today? He's a regular customer. Was he in? Yes or no? Yes. Did he buy a book? No. You sure? Positive. He asked for a volume we didn't have. What volume? I don't remember the title because we didn't have it in stock. It was a textbook. Textbook? Yes, on horticulture. Plants. Plants? Does that mean something to you? Yeah. It could explain why the Margate family has gone to seed. I'm just crazy, but it was beginning to untangle. I headed for my car up the street. Before I touched the starter, I found out I had company. All right, Regan Drive. The gun in my back told me he meant it. One look in the mirror told me he was George Hendricks. Well, you're calling him, where to? Your apartment. I want to talk. Have a cheer, Regan. Meet your house. Thanks. I talk. You sit and listen. I can stand.  It's your party, Hendricks. There's been an accident at the Margate house. I heard. Hillary Sharan, sir. That right? You think different? Changed my mind. You can kill him, Regan. Who said you did? I never could get used to confinement. Oh. San Quentin? Sandstone. Sandstone and a soda. Tell me more. Listen, Regan, the police don't like guys with a record. What was your rap, Hendricks? Checks, something like that forgery. So why tell me? You're moving in my direction, Regan. I don't like it. Is that why you ran? There's something else. Yeah? The name. It isn't Hendricks. It's Margate. What's that? Freehold Quincy Margate. No wonder you changed it. There were several reasons. Yeah, old South family. Listen, Regan, you got to believe me.  I didn't have anything to do with it.  Morley. He works at the Margate place, part time. What's his job? Flunky. He works in the garden with me. When he isn't tailing the girl? Leave me out of that part of it. Well, do I answer that? Yes, but watch what you say. Regan. Regan. Yeah, just got here. What's the matter? Is someone with you?  Well, I just found out about Hendricks. You guessed it. You mean he's there? Go on. Listen, that's not his real name, Regan. He's a Margate. Freehold Quincy Margate. Age 46, height 511, weight 180. Get to the point. Well, about that prison record. Quite correct. It was eight years ago. Charge. Narcotics violation. Yes, but be careful. He'll hear you. No, he won't. He just went out the door fast. I had what I needed. I averaged 50 down Franklin and pulled up in front of the Margate place 10 minutes later. It was dark and it looked empty, like a beer can after a picnic. I found an open window and crawled in. It was the gun room. And that meant I didn't have to go much farther. But somebody changed my mind for me when the door suddenly opened. And a hunk of orange lightning stabbed in my direction. I ducked in the chair next to be toppled over. I couldn't wait for the next one. Let me go. Drop it. Yeah. That's better. Now some lights. That book Hillary was reading. I'm in a hurry, baby.  All right. I didn't see it closely. It had pictures of plants. Like the ones in your backyard? Yes. I didn't know what it meant until... Until Hillary got it.  Why? Hillary didn't poison my aunt's tea. They only said he did so they could kill me and then blame him for it. That way they'd be rid of both of us. Yeah, but Hillary caught on too quick. That's why they killed him, Mr. Regan. Oh, don't let them know. I know. It won't matter now, baby. I circled around the house in a hurry. Empty. Then I tried the garden. That's when I saw it. Fifty yards behind the house. A strange light at first. Then something red that began to grow. Then smoke and more smoke. I ran for the back of the garden in the flames. She saw me coming. Stand back, Mr. Regan. Maybe tomorrow, Mrs. Margate. I want you, Regan. Stand back. You hired me, remember?  You figured he'd be around. Put that gun down, Molly. The smoke's getting in your eyes. No, no. Shoot him, Molly. Shoot him. You're too late for that. I drove across the column of smoke and caught his arm as he tried to find me with that gun. I got to him first. I owed him something for what he'd give me in that alley and I paid him back with interest. The old lady just stood there and glared at me.  It took me 10 minutes in my best sport coat to stop the blaze. But the price was cheap. Because where the fire had been was a nice pile of exhibit A. It looks just like an ordinary plant, but the police call it marijuana. Somebody spotted the smoke and called the fire department. The police were right behind them and loaded the last of the Margates into the wagon. And it was like Gretz said, she was scheduled to turn up poison and I was supposed to testify that Hillary had done it. Only Hillary caught on too fast and they gave him a bullet for his trouble. And after I finished up at headquarters I went to the office and filled the lion in. He was disappointed. And this fella, the police picked up at the depot, this Hendricks. He wasn't the culprit we were looking for. He was under the old lady's thumb like the rest of the family. She blackmailed him into growing this stuff. With his record, he couldn't afford to squawk. He couldn't afford to squawk? How do you think I feel? You got a check for a hundred bucks, didn't you? Well, yes, I did. She did pay you, didn't she? Well, you see, Jeffrey, that is, she gave me a check when I first went out there for $100. You said that. Well, I didn't think anything of it at the time, but, well, you see, her brother-in-law... You mean... Well, that is, Hendricks did have a prison record for the narcotics violation, but, uh... Well, it seems upon examining the records more closely, there was an earlier sentence for, uh... Bad checks. Oh, yes. It seems to run in the family. I don't get paid this week. Go on. Quit me. Take a man when he's down. Oh, stop it. You know I never withhold payment when I have it. Right now, I don't have it. Maybe next week... If you wait two weeks, it'll be Thanksgiving. What's that mean? You can have the end of the turkey I've been getting. Jeffrey, you're not being kind. Remember my heart. I'll try. Oh, thank you, Jeffrey. Thank you. Now, here's $0.25. For what?  I forgot to wait for it.

You need a financial advisor with the freedom to focus on your specific needs. Whatever your goals, Reid Potter can create a game plan tailored to you. Call Reid at 432-0777 at Pikeville, Kentucky to learn more. Thacker Memorial in partnership with Hillbilly Christmas in July will be holding their eighth annual Ride for Life on Sunday, May 28th. The reason our ride started is, I guess I wanted to start something in memory of my son. I lost my son in 2010, and I've been a mason and a surrender for 50 years now. And the one thing I thought of is what we could do to preserve his memory and also to do the benefit for our community also. And so what we do now is we sponsor the ride and all the money that we received from that, those direct features, Lakeston Shriners Cripple Children's Hospital, 100% of it. The ride serves as both a fun Memorial Day event and also a fundraiser for the Shriners Children's Hospital. We have been collecting different stories from the community. And I think if people took an opportunity to get on our Facebook page, they could actually read like personal stories of how the Shriners have helped them. If we all came together and helped them, imagine all the other children would be benefited by a mild contribution. Registration for the event will begin at 11 a.m. on Sunday, May 28th. The price to participate is $20 per person. For more information, you can visit the Thacker Memorial Facebook page. For Mountain Top News, I'm Kelsey Dean.
