IF DISASTER STRIKES: SAFE ZONES IN AMERICA
By Andrew Strom I write this out of genuine concern for the remnant of God in the USA. It is something that I have been wanting to put together for awhile. Since I have been in the United States it has come to my attention that there have been prophetic and praying people from all different places who have had visions, dreams, or strong revelations that concern an apocalyptic disaster striking America. The most unanimous warnings from many quarters concern the West Coast. By no means is the West Coast the only part of America being singled out in a lot of these prophecies. You need to be totally led by the Spirit, but generally if these things begin to occur, some of the northern central states are often spoken of as "safety zones". The latter part of a lot of these prophecies and dreams show America being invaded by foreign armies while she is down. But I just wanted to put this out so that people will know what God has been speaking in many parts of this nation for a number of years.

70 Things Every Computer Geek Should Know. | Arrow Webzine
The term ‘geek’, once used to label a circus freak, has morphed in meaning over the years. What was once an unusual profession transferred into a word indicating social awkwardness. As time has gone on, the word has yet again morphed to indicate a new type of individual: someone who is obsessive over one (or more) particular subjects, whether it be science, photography, electronics, computers, media, or any other field. A geek is one who isn’t satisfied knowing only the surface facts, but instead has a visceral desire to learn everything possible about a particular subject. A techie geek is usually one who knows a little about everything, and is thus the person family and friends turn to whenever they have a question. If you’re that type of person and are looking for a few extra skills to pick up, or if you’re a newbie aiming to get a handhold on the honor that is geekhood, read on to find out what skills you need to know.

Anatomy of a Stud-Framed Wall
Jack studs and king studs The header is supported by a jack stud at each end. Jacks, sometimes called trimmers, fit under each end of a header, and they transfer the load that the header carries down to the bottom plate and the framing beneath. Nailed to the jacks are full-height studs called king studs; they support the assembly between the plates. Sometimes jacks must be doubled on wide openings so there's enough supporting surface for the header to bear on. Jacks can be replaced with a steel header hanger attached to the king stud.
