By Chris Goldberg Phillylacrosse.com, posted 10/6/08 Cabrini College junior attacker Casey Grugan says Nick Colleluori continues to be an inspiration to those who played with him at Ridley High. “I remember how long he fought and how hard he fought,” said Grugan, a United States Intercollegiate Lacrosse Association third-team Division III All-American last year. “It was unbelievable how hard he worked. “It’s a shame that something that bad can happen to such a good person. It makes you want to fight that mu ch ha rder.” On Saturday, Grugan and the Cavaliers will get the chance to honor the memory of a man whose fight against non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma has led to a foundation and lacrosse tournament that has captured the imagination of the entire lacrosse world. From 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. Saturday at the Ridley High Athletic Complex in Folsom, Pa., 13 Division I and III teams will play in the 2nd Annual Nick Colleluori Classic. Over 7,000 people are expected to attend a special Fall Ball tournament that has already helped the HEADstrong Foundation raise over $200,000 for blood cancer research. Admission is $10. Nick was a standout lacrosse player at Ridley who was diagnosed with lymphoma as a freshman playing at Hofstra three years ago. Nicknamed “Head,” Colleluori himself created the idea of the HEADstrong Foundation as part of his dream to raise awareness and, ultimately, to cure blood cancer. His fight to live may have ended after 14 months when he died on Nov. 28, 2006, but his cause has grown at a rate perhaps even he would not have predicted. Nick’s mother, Cheryl Colleluori, the Foundation President, said the goal is to raise $250,000 at this year’s Classic. She noted that the tournament will be manned by 150 volunteers. “It’s just an honor to play for his name and go back to Ridley High,” said Cabrini senior midfielder Pat Grenier, also a Ridley grad. “He (Nick) was the captain my junior year and he treated every practice like it was a state championship game.” Grugan, the Pennsylvania Athletic Conference Player of the Year last season, said Colleluori intensity set him above the rest. “He had so much leadership,” Grugan said. “He was such an inspiring person, everything he did he gave 110 percent.” Cabrini coach Steve Colfer agreed with his players, saying the Colleluori Classic is much more than just another Fall Ball Tournament. “It truly is one of the greatest honors that has been bestowed on our program in my 9 years as head coach,” he said. “We take our participation and affiliation with Headstrong very seriously. The guys look forward to everything to do with the tournament. We are trying to cover our campus in lime green t-shirts” Aside from Grugan and Grenier, there are five other Ridley grads on the Cabrini roster: senior midfielder Chris Cavaliere, sophomore midfielder Dan Terenick and freshmen John McSorly (defense), Steve Gregg (long-stick midfielder) and Brian Hill (attacker). Cabrini, located 15 miles north of Ridley in the Philadelphia suburbs, features 31 of its 48 players from the Philadelphia area. “Our players from Ridley HS know Nick’s story very well,” said Colfer, whose Cavaliers have won the past eight PAC championships and advanced to the NCAA quarterfinals last year. “And I ask them to share their stories and memories with their current teammates to educate them about Nick’s courageous battle and so that each of us when faced with adversity can draw on Nick’s courage. “It motivates all of us to do the very best we can each day in lacrosse and life.”.

Mural Once Hidden Is Seen Albeit for only a few weeks, a mural that was once hidden inside on the second floor of this building became visible to the public as the owner began tearing the building. Suddenly revealed to the public, the mural created a positive buzz around the community and for the passersby. It also received some attention on a local Philly blog, Naked Philly. This gave us an idea to do more murals inside vacant buildings, in hopes of creating a resurgence of activity in underutilized spaces. Perhaps we could even plan to do these murals spontaneously in places where we know buildings are coming down sometime soon... Feel free to share your thoughts!

More samples added We are pleased to say that we have added more music samples and will be adding many more in the coming days. You will now find samples of every track on Conspiracy Theories. Sonic Curiosity June 2007 The band is: Phil Miller (from Matching Mole, Hatfield & the North, and National Health) on guitar and synth guitar, Pete Lemer on keyboards, Fred Baker on bass, Mark Fletcher on drums, Simon Picard on saxophone, Simon Finch on trumpet and flugelhorn, Annie Whitehead on trombone, Didier Malherbe (from Gong) on saxophone, flute, doudouk and ocarina, Doug Boyle on guitar, Dave Stewart (from Egg, Hatfield & the North, and National Health) on tuned percussion, Barbara Gaskin on vocals, and Richard Sinclair (from Caravan) on bass. With a line-up of seasoned pros like the above, one must expect the music is going to be excruciatingly tight and slippery slick. It is. The horns waft and sway with amiable emotion. Maintaining a very jazzy disposition, the horn section delivers tasty riffs with delightful expertise. Comfortable melodies are imbued with molten passion. The saxophones wail with cheerful melancholy. The trumpet warbles with earnest fervor. Enchanting riffs spill from the guitar with glorious agility. Each note is meticulously placed to elevate the entire instrumental gestalt. And when the guitar gets the chance to elbow its way into the spotlight, the glory becomes ecstatic and amazing. The keyboards provide delicate embellishment to the melodies with often dramatic sweeps. Nimble-fingered chords slide into wondrous melodies that serve to connect the other instruments’ riffs. The percussion is skillful and knows exactly how to drive from a submerged vantage. Never too strong, never too elusive, the rhythms fit perfectly between the rest of the notes. The basslines are intricate, fluid, and lend particular nectar to the tunes. These compositions are dazzling and engaging. Their ability to immediately put the listener at ease is eminent. While steeped in Canterbury roots, this music is very straight-ahead jazz, merging old school traditions with modern delivery. The result is mesmerizing and rewarding, with wide appeal.. Let it Rock – June 2007 Whatever you might make of the Canterbury scene these days, it’s not the same anymore, there’s not much progressiveness in it now, which is not to say it’s worse than it was before – but Phil Miller‘s band were latecomers anyway. With a new album to mark the group’s 25th year in the business, they bring on the top-notch fusion, the title track wrapping round the listener’s ears like a cosy‘s piano sings so poignant. It’s clearly the effortless endeavour. From Let it Rock – DME music site All About Jazz – June—perhaps.

I hate it to be forced to pay for something - just put a paypal button somewhere and ask for donations from time to time, just like wikipedia does... I just keep using firefox ADBLOCK and no problems, I would use it anyways for other crap sites. USA JEWS common donate, u fucking scumbags! Thanks Micheal. One of the things that's dawned on me while using BitTorrent is the importance of feedback to the community. I probably wouldn't use BitTorrent if there was no share ratio, if they just said, “Just do whatever you think is OK.”, which is what most community projects do. I think BitTorrent would not be what it is today if there was no feedback or share ratio. Granted, it's not what it could be, but it is working. I could contribute $10 bucks or $1000, and what difference would it make? It's a shot in the dark either way because I have no idea what the numbers are. The project could be rolling in cash. I think defining the problem is job one. Once you define it, you empower the community to get involved and do more, which could be contributions or just keeping you in mind and promoting the website. I couldn't be more excited about Bit Torrent, and it's really all about the feedback, seeing my humble part defined in some real way makes me feel like part of the community. I think the more you define the problem, the more you empower people to get involved. Asking the community to get involved but giving them no real way to define the problem could be compared to a form of torture, putting a bag over someone's head and demanding they do something. Does that promote community involvement? Seems like sometimes, that's the point, the community is expected to do nothing so a minority population can justify a spirit of entitlement or exploitation. Third party verification of the protion that can be verified would probalby also be helfuf. The idea is not global change, but simply growth, positive change. That's where global change starts. Thanks for the opprutnity to speak on this!

WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY I mean yes flash is a technology still used mainly in pornography websites and websites designed by idiots but it goes away. Mozilla (and google/youtube + porn sites) should start pushing open web formats aggressively (ie not use webm as a fallback and disable it for monetized videos on youtube). Also we should get rid of h264 and shit like that from the web.

Czarek Sokolowski / AP. Small town, big Jesus Explore related topics: jesus, poland, statue, swiebodzin Jesus Christ! One question please........ aside from cost of this statue - why do atheists feel it necessary to mock and make nasty comments concerning Christians. Truly, I have never heard a Christian call you down, make fun of your non-belief or doubts. We might silently pray for you, but wonder why you have to be downright nasty and ugly. Have you ever heard of Respect? Live and let live? I bet all you atheists have family members, friends, co-workers connected to a religion and worship in churches, temples, synagogues....do you express your feelings to them in person? Laugh at their 'stupidity', call them 'ignorant'? No! Why? because you need your family, you need your friends, and as for co-workers - your boss would probably fire you if you acted that way on the job. So it comes down to most of you being hypocrits - you can only vent your feelings annonymously in letters or postings. So put on your big boy or big girl panties - if you can't say it in person, don't put it in writing. Have a great day! Nice Ellie! Well spoken.... Jesus loves all people weather you love Him or not/ no matter what you have done, He wants to wash you and make you clean, wouldnt that be nice...But, He wont strive with us forever which means... there is "a cut off time" that no one knows...Get with the program people, blow off the dust from your bible and BE like Jesus. Dont look at the stupid mistakes people make as an excuse not to believe, it wont work on Judgement Day :) If you dont have a bible, just ask one of us "Jesus freaks" and they will give you one, free. I don't have any problem with them erecting a statue of Jesus Christ. If I have any problem at all with anything and I suppose I'm the only one that does, it is this: Why is Jesus Christ wearing a gold crown? Only crown I recall him ever wearing was made of thorns. @Ellie Oh please. You haven't lived the shoes of an atheist. We get discriminated against ALL THE TIME! We are the last minority where it is considered okay to discriminate against. Yes, I have family and friends that are theists and I try to express my views to them all the time, but I get the cold shoulder because apparently Christians are afraid to talk about their beliefs to non-Christians. And if my boss fired me because I was not Christian, then you bet your @ss that I would sue. The fact that atheists have to vent their feelings anonymously only goes to show how intolerant Christians are. Christianity is a sick and immoral cult. This statue is a huge waste of money and resources that could have gone to feeding a starving child but instead you Christians have to go and flaunt your messiah. I'm not an athiest, I'm agnostic. But I've been treated like dirt by Christians many many times. One holiday, I was chastised by the people with whom I work for taking down the Christmas decorations before the Epiphany. Though the supervisors asked me to do it, I was treated like the anti-christ for not giving a damn about Christmas in mid-January. And the horror when they realized I didn't decorate my home for Easter. I don't have a problem with Christians. I even voted -- several times -- to keep a local cross on a hill, though it's federal land. You have faith, great. I have tried. I don't believe in blind adherance to any ideology and I like to think for myself. So let's just agree to disagree. Dear Lola3, I do truly hope you are not gambling with your eternity on the stupidity of "people". The kindest person in the world will let you down dear. Get past the people thing, get your eyes OFF people and put them on The Lord Jesus. You Wont be let down or disappointed is what His words and actions say. And you said blind adherence, there is "nothing" blind about Him or faith. You said you tried, why did you give up? Dont worry about what people say, read you bible first and dont worry about church goers, you dont need to worry about them or impress them. Just DO what your bible tells you to and you cant go wrong. It sounds like you were hurt by someone or just gave in to your desires (sin) but God did not give up on you :) Get back on the horse, thats what life is all about. This time, REALLY study the word and dont push yourself too much. Enjoy it/ get away from those who would discourage you. Find a "good" bible "teacher" not just a preacher and you will be AMAZED at how fun it is and how captivating it is. God knows we are just made of dirt, He can deal with our faults through His perfect Son Jesus. Just dont give up :) ever!! No matter what! Thats what will get Gods attention. We know that from the bible. May He bless you and heal you sister. No thank you. I have made my choice and I'm happy with my lack of faith in any god. You have fun though. @ThunderProof: "Why is Jesus Christ wearing a gold crown? Only crown I recall him ever wearing was made of thorns." Here in Poland Jesus has been crowned and named "king of Poland". So its some kind of symbol what people belive in. Jesus isn't sooo tall in Bible too ;) Read your bible just a bit more my friend, you will know why. Its all good :) Think future.....Hummm The New Jerusalem....Hummmm Thanks for the info too. I love His new name :) What a stupid waste of money - a shrine to an imaginary god. Prove He is imaginary :) You would have to claim to have all knowledge of everything there is to know about everything to say "Im an atheist". You are saying that in all the things you dont know, God does not exist. The top scientist say that visible matter is only about 10% of "reality" as we know it. Talk about faith and religion, now thats a fairytale religion. No factual basis for that kind of belief. You cant claim ignorance, you have been warned by the watchman on the tower. Jesus is coming back and we will all stand before Him and have to give an account. You cant earn the right to be in Gods family. His son paid the price with His life and all you have to do is accept the redemption He offers, free of charge. We will NEVER be "good enough", just say thank you and serve your KING. The burden of proof is on you to prove that your definition of god exists, not on the atheist. Atheism is simply the lack of belief in a theistic deity. Atheism is the rational position to take in light of insufficient evidence for a theistic deity. Prove he exists ? Can you give us a date when he is likely to show up ? Ellie 123... I think you need to read a lot more (try the non fiction area of the library) Atheist are the least liked people in the US: Lack of non belief and younger critical thinkers are the biggest threat to religion. In the old days we were just slaughtered, last days we were educated to make us respect people that pray to fresh air. These days we tell it like it is a bunch of BS. You would be surprised how much your beleifs in a invisible god tries to dictate society. You were saying? As surprised to see how many self-proclaimed 'athiests' look towards their denied deity when the ground starts to shake? @ kubush84 Still, you have to claim to have all knowledge of everything to say Im an atheist. You have "no proof". I know for a fact, If you read your bible and took the time to "Seriously investigate" its authenticity, you would come to only ONE conclusion. Maybe you are just lazy, there is nothing to be afraid of. There is no burden on "me". I cant give you answers for something you dont understand.... I want to join a nuclear physics class but before I sign up, I want all the answers, PFFT! Come on! Analysis = You would not understand the answers even if you were given the answers. DIY + pray to your maker and ask Him to make Himself known to you with an honest heart and you wont be denied. Its His promise to you as stated in "His word". :) @HIS child-2382068 Nonsense. I am an atheist because I do not accept the theistic claim of a deity. Atheism is the lack of belief, it is not a belief in it of itself. Would you have to have 100% knowledge of everything in order for you to say "Santa clause does not exist"? No, of course not. The burden of proof is on the person making the claim that X exists. "I know for a fact, If you read your bible and took the time to..." Apparently you don't realize how ignorant it is to claim knowledge without any evidence whatsoever. I have read and studied the bible, as have many ex-christians atheists and have come to the only logical and rational conclusion that your bible is wrong and that your god does not exist. I am saying this as a positive claim because if the existence of your god being real is defined and contingent upon the bible being 100% correct, then I can show you why it is not. Get off your high horse and don't talk down to me simply because I don't buy your bronze age superstitious myth. Pretending that you can't answer serious critical questions about your religion because I won't understand them, is just an excuse because you know in your heart that you can't defend the nonsense that you accept. "pray to your maker and ask Him to make Himself known to you with an honest heart and you wont be denied. Its His promise to you as stated in "His word". :)" I have and so have many other atheists but nothing happened. So apparently his "word" was wrong. :) Jesus Christ, that's a big statue. Hell yes, biggest graven image I ever did see! What a waste of resources. Who wants to see a 167 foot statue of anyone? Looks like it belongs in Jesus Disneyland. Just more crap cluttering up the landscape. [sarcasm] Go see the new 24 million Kc clock on the town square of Brno, Czech Republic instead. It doesn't show the time (seriously), but it does dispense a glass ball at 11:00 every day. (What will those former Communists think of next?) Build the biggest statue of your god, and he'll shower you with rewards! Just look at how well that worked out for the ancient Greeks...and Romans...and Egyptians, Phoenicians, etc etc All of which were pagans, and non-believers. not much of a point now, is it. If you define "pagan" as "any religion that is not Christian" then what is the point of pointing that out? They most definitely were believers of their gods. His point still stands. PS - So, this community in Poland has NO starving people, NO need for government assisted medical programs, NO alcoholics, NO prostitutes, NO children in need of a state-funded education ... because if they DID, they SURELY wouldn't waste the resources to build a 167 foot tall statue of jebus.... right? wow, what a waste of money, this show the stupidity of people and they damed religions, shame. And the point is? The One and only King! All the scoffing wont make it not so, give up now or later, He loves you no matter what you have done or said....but be caaaareful time is running out :) Sure, He doesnt like idols but He judges the hearts intention......What do you use your money for??? DOH!! Serve your King! I use money to feed my family. I do not have any "soul" and your Jesus was a charlatan preacher who died two thousand years ago after making money by "curing" diseases by speaking Hebrew to "spirits". And believe me, each of his patients would have prefered Mayo Clinic to "talking to spirits" if they had the opportunity. They used their money to get You to "think" about Jesus. Food goes away, your soul Does Not...Ever, in a place where time does not exist. @Alex-1488986 Your opinion pretty much matches the one I used to hold, though I did tend to blame much of the mythologizing on people who came well after Jesus' lifetime. However, after having not giving it much thought since around my early thirties (I'm currently 54) I ran into an article that caused me to doubt whether Jesus actually existed at all. Anywhosits, long story short, the piece piqued my interest enough to pursue the topic and so I read a good deal more, both pro and con, on the subject. Now, as a result of that reading, I am quite convinced that the person of Jesus is an utter fiction. (Bad news for those Christians who enjoy disparaging Muslims: The "Prophet" Muhammad was, in contrast to Jesus, a person in easily ascertainable history. (Though of course he was, and is, no more "divine' or a "prophet" than my pet goldfish.)) Most children stop believing in fairy tales by age 10 -- these people apparently didn't get the memo. Well, then why have so many Expert big bangers, atheist and evolutionary "scientists" bent on debunking "The word" become believers? In their thorough investigation using Science, archeology, ancient documents back up 100% what "The Word" says. Believing Nothing came to be from Nothing without a designer ( God ) is believing in a fairy tale. Have you ever hear of the flagella motor? Look it up. Speaking about something you obviously know Nothing about is what my mommy taught me was called ignorant. Willingly ignorant must be a tough realm to live in. Hope you get a clue soon. He is waiting for you to give up fighting Him, He created you to love you. What utter nonsense! The Big Bang Theory and Evolution are scientific models of reality and are not dependent on atheism or vice-a-versa. The fact that you reject evidence based science just goes to show how dangerous religion really is. It promotes ignorants. Your assumption that most scientists that try to debunk Christianity become Christians is utterly false. You make up facts for your own comfort. Atheism says nothing about origins. It is a lack of belief. But let me tell you that the current scientific thought of the universe is that it was eternal, at least in some form. I guess that means that your god is out of a job. The flagella motor? Is that a reference to intelligent design? The flagella is a perfect example of evolution in action. Try again. @ kubush 84 Evolution is the biggest religion there is...something from nothing! PFFT! Where did the matter come from to make "anything". Something from nothing and thats not to even mention "design". The probability factor of JUST the eye to "evolve" is IMPOSSIBLE, do the math. GET a clue, things dont "evolve better" , they deteriorate. Dont you know anything about your religion? Dont you know the FIRST law of thermodynamics? God is calling you out of your professed ignorance. You will be pleasantly surprised when you give up and give your life to your maker. He made you to live with Him, He knows you are just made of dirt. Give Him a break and stop rebelling child. You have just made so many childish statements, not to offend you, sorry. As a scientist - and an atheist - I am curious about the rationalization behind accepting a 'GOD' as an explanation for the existence of the universe. Whence the 'GOD'? Why does the 'existence' of 'God' not require a source? Why is the eternal nature of 'God' without explanation acceptable? The wonders of the universe are many, which is why science is fun. The fact that we do not yet have a complete understanding is not a reason to suggest that it is time to give up and evoke 'god'. To suggest that your - or my - incomplete knowledge means that such knowledge is unattainable is the ultimate hubris. @ nedhead, Finally, a "half" decent response here. Well, I see you profess to be a scientist. May I suggest to you to find the Top scientist to study with. The Top leading scientist are Christians now a days, not to insult your intelligence. You are obviously pondering the wonders of the universe, good, most people do. If God gave you all the answers for those kinds of things, you would then be God wouldnt you...? You trusted your mommy and daddy when they said its safe to do this and that, didnt you? Well, why would God (Jesus) ask you to believe in a Lie or give you a red herring, He wouldnt. I would not start with the big questions until you learned the smaller ones first since you love science. We dont just walk into the top classes of science, do we? Start at the bottom, ask the right questions and dont write God out of your equation yet since you obviously cant deny He does not exists, right? Aaaaand No one has what you so called "evoked" anything on you. You are a scientist right, only facts please...no stretching the truth with Evoke, come on, God (and I ) expects a little bit more from a smart scientist person....not like some of these ranters and ravers here above and below. Just out of curiosity, If everything "we" make here on earth has a designer, why would anyone think there is NO design involved in our beautiful expanses in space, earth, all its life and US? No designer Hu? Just accident? You should know as a scientist, thats a mathematical impossibility...even if some funny people do "believe" our solar system and everything in it is billions and billions of years old. Kinda like they say, the grand canyon took millions of years to create. We now know that this happened very quickly, like a couple of days probably. Wouldnt all that sediment be in the gulf of Mexico...DOH! Anyway, hope that give you something to think about and dont forget, No "one" is evoking anything on you, Jesus is inviting you to be with Him....although He asks for your whole heart and thats it. While I appreciate the depth of your irrational conviction, in concert with the shallowness of your arguments, I fail to perceive even a hint of an attempt to answer my civil question. Perhaps if you were to try and craft a paragraph or two that did not include bumper sticker slogans, factual errors, and insults, a constructive dialog might ensue. My Nedhead friend, I thought I made myself clear, sorry bout that. I will say it like I did to that above person. Hi, I want to sign up for nuclear physics class but before I sign up, I want all the answers. Thats not very smart hu? I know you know the answer to that.....How can you understand the answer to something you dont understand? Like I was saying, you presume to be smarter than me which is your first mistake because I dont use fancy words to entertain ears. Dont ever do that if you really want to proceed in science and the pursuit of truth can be blinded by your presuppositions. Ive learned some of the most remarkable things from some very "dumb" folks. No insult intended. Sometimes we get into what I call the "fishbowl" effect. Get out of the fishbowl and go live in the rest of the world and learn of it, you cant learn of it in a classroom or lab only. Is that too bumper stickerish for you sir? Im usually the one who says I dont like bumper sticker phrases I never meant to be insulting, this is the problem with not being face to face in conversation. Miscommunication is rampant because we dont see facial expressions nor do we hear tone of voice....sorry if I seemed insulting. God has revealed Himself to the poor, sick and stupid and thumbed his nose and the "know it alls". All knowledge must exalt God who "gave" it to us. OK, I didn't want to get to this point but here we go. First off, as I approach retirement age (although I have no plans to retire), I have had a very successful career in science (and business). The very essence of science is seeking to understand the answers (and new questions) to that which we don't know already. And finally, you still have not attempted to answer the very clear and simple question which I posed earlier; most likely because you have no answer. You speak (write) words that resemble sentences, but they have no content, no substance (not to mention no comprehension of grammar or spelling). I end this thread with you now, because I get no satisfaction from engaging in a battle of wits with an unarmed opponent. @ nedhead, Oh my friend, I expected much more from you than giving your resume and insulting me...since you are so smart. The Lord expects a lot more from you also since He gave you this intelligence. He will require an account form you. What did you do with what I gave you...rebel against Me? Here, I will try to say it again differently and this will be the last from me. You are an expert in Chinese characters. (your resume) You go up to the Egyptian hieroglyphics teacher and try to joust with him on his understanding of what he knows. You say, ok, I dont want to join your class, also you must give me all the answers to the questions I have for you in your field of expertise. This is what you are doing. I expected much more from you as a seasoned scientist and educated person. Seek Him, pray to Him, call out to Him and you wont be disappointed. This life is so full of disappointments. He wont disappoint you, You have everything to gain and Nothing that matters to lose...... @HIS child-2382068 Don't presume that you can educate people, especially on the subject of science when you proclaim such utter ignorance by asking, "how did something come from nothing?" when it comes to evolution. Any first year biology student can tell you why this is such a silly question but I'll let you try to figure that out on your own. You fail to see that something that looks designed isn't necessarily so. You seem to be throwing out all the most common Creationist canards like candy to kids. ALL have been easily debunked by logic and evidence. The earth is not thousands of years old. It is around 4.55 billion years old. The Grand Canyon was carved out over millions of years and that is backed by real evidence and not just a collection of 2000 year old writings from some ignorant old superstitious men. You need to go get yourself a real education outside of your bible and creationist videos on youtube. It's not the statue, it's the Man. And if you dont believe in the Man, it's His ideas. And if you dont believe in His ideas then there are one of two possibilities... 1. you have never read them or 2. you are too stupid to understand them there is a third possibility... 3. you are to selfish to accept them. Jesus is not a fairy tale, or an imaginary figure. What is a fairy tale is the belief that you can continue in your self absorbed lives and find any peace and happiness. At least the Poles have a clue. Well worded Hal, its kinda like what I said.... Oh? The man that invented an eternal torture chamber should be revered? The guy who taught how to properly beat your slave? Sorry, I don't accept your supposed messiah and his message. Your cult is dangerous and a waste of resources. @kubush84 Dont even get started on trying to go into MY area (the bible) please. You are embarrassing yourself already. Your questioning God, for one....Two, you just made a statement about slaves and morphed into something that has nothing to do with fact. See what your Darwin god evolved you into...A fairytale artist just writing make believe :) Your god Darwin even admitted it in his later writings that his theory was not possible but it was better that believing in God. Why dont you go look up and find that paper....I did :) Did you know he called the human cell, just plasma like glue that holds us together that has no real function....PFT! Primordial ooze, fairytale :) No facts to back up your hocus-pocus. You know you are wrong thats why you TRY and attack the bible to your own demise. You are the dangerous cult imposing your laws on us and silence us. Stick to facts. Your heart will be hardened if you keep this up, and you wont be able to know Him. I suggest you stop while you still have the chance. These are not my opinions, these are biblical facts well documented by eye witness accounts....I hope you believe in eye witness accounts, our judicial system does. Who is the cult follower? God will happily forgive you of anything you have done and will heal you of the wrongs done TO you that made you this Hard-hearted. Ask Jesus to make Himself known to you and ask him to forgive you and tell him you want to give up and surrender your whole life to Him :) He loves YOU :) First off, yes, I have a brain, hence I can question ANYTHING, even your made-up god. Second, I did not morph anything. I took it right out of your bible. You couldn't even defend it and rightfully so because it is indefensible. I can bet that I know more about your religion and your bible than you do. "Your god Darwin even admitted it in his later writings that his theory was not possible but it was better that believing in God." Doesn't your god say "Thou shalt not bear false witness"? Because that is exactly what you did here. Darwin NEVER said anything of the sort. Finding made up quotes from Creationist websites is not considered real research. Darwin knew that we had heritable traits but did not know about genetics. Darwin set the foundation of Evolutionary Theory but we have learned a lot since and it is a lot more accurate and refined than it was 150 years ago. It is called the progress of science. How the hell am I imposing my laws and silencing you?!?!?!?!? "No facts to back up your hocus-pocus." LOL. Oh the irony, it hurts! Let's see what you have to believe in be a YEC: a magical father figure in the sky created everything from nothing and then magically transformed dirt into the first man, and then transformed a rib into a woman (because she was created to serve Adam, of course), then a talking snake convinced the woman to eat from a magical tree which then caused all of their descendent's to be cursed (by hocus-pocus) and the only way to be saved from an eternal torture chamber is to believe and love some guy that lived in the middle east 2k years ago that walked on water, magically made water into wine, and raised from the dead. ROTFL!!! And you call incremental changes in species over a vast amount of time to be "hocus-pocus"?!? Eye-witness accounts are not sufficient even in the courtroom. The credibility of the eye witness must be established. Also, the fact that the eye witness needs to have their story in line with all the other evidence, otherwise the testimony is called into question. The bible's accounts are hear-say to say the least. And if you truly believe in eye-witness testimony then why don't you accept the testimony of the Prophet Mohammed? "Religion easily has the best bull@!$%#." ~George Carlin RIP The subject of Jesus has never and will NEVER "go away". Why are you all so offended by Jesus? Why is everyone talking about Jesus? Why does the core of every subject now a days come down to Jesus? He has put it in our hearts, thats why...says the bible. Check it out, dont believe me :) "Why is everyone talking about Jesus?" Maybe, just maybe it's because the article is about a giant jesus statue? [sarcasm] Would you like to see another fine example of your European Union taxes [straight from your pocket] hard at work? Follow this link to see a statue of Jan Perner, the founder of Czech railroads, newly installed in Ceska Trebova: (If Perner looked anything like his statue, he was probably used for the first rails . . . ) I think its totally awesome - Im not bothered either way that its supposed to be Jesus though. I would love to see the one in Rio. Now if they built two of them either side of a river like they did in the lord of the rings I would definitely go see them, that would be awesome! What an ugly monstrosity That sends a clear message Polish people believe in myths from the dusty old book called the bible They think it will put them on the map !! Yes for stupidity Batman, Spider man, Superman, Alice in Wonderland, Goldie locks. Was there a list to choose from. I'm Polish and I'm an atheist. Great !! Have you read "The greatest show on Earth" By Richard Darkins Best seller in some parts of the world where knowledge is permitted @ Kubush Again ! You CANT be an atheist. No such thing, sorry. Nothing tops the religion of self-righteous arrogance practicing it's trade quite like ... @ Barbara Y You seem like a nice, logical person who can tell the future like the bible can...I think I will believe in what you believe now ......NOT! :) "Again ! You CANT be an atheist. No such thing, sorry" *facepalm* What a stupid thing to say. Yes, atheism and atheists exist! None of those people in Poland were put on this earth to live up to my expectations anymore than you were. So - With that in mind... Why can't everyone simply learn to accept each others differences without all the damn senseless bickering about a community that chose to erect a statue of Jesus Christ in their own town? It's not exactly like they trying to force their will upon you. If you don't like it... Don't go there to look at it! How much simpler can that be!? Sorry! You think a statue that is 167ft tall is not forcing their beleif on every person in the village. What say 12% of the village don't beleive in the jesus and every morning its in their face, did they have a say, or they just kept silence as that was safer. Religion always wants to force their beleif that is why they start with the children, scare the hell out of them, muddle their thinking. You live your life your way, I'll live mine..... No one forces anything on me that I do not allow. Period Good to hear !! I don't consider it that big of a deal but honestly that money could have been spent much better, like for instance the roads....have you ever been to Poland? No I haven't I have travelled in other parts of Europe Would like to do some more I want to go to Russia/ Moscow and travel in the metro @ kubush84 You keep saying your "opinion" about things you know nothing about dear. If you were in charge of Rio de Janeiro...What!? You are going to presume to tell someone whos job it is to run that place and those people "how" they should do THEIR job!? In a culture and a place you know NOTHING about...please. You gotta be kidding me?! Have you ever lived anywhere outside the states? Monday morning quarterback, go over there and do something about it, go volunteer over there and get involved. "If you were in charge of Rio...are going to presume to tell someone whos job it is to run that place" I don't get it. Is that a trick question? If I am in charge, then presumably I run that place. lol. "ave you ever lived anywhere outside the states?" Apparently you didn't even read the comment that you replied to. I was born in Poland, I immigrated to the U.S. And I have lived abroad in places like Ecuador which also has a big statue of Jesus on a mountain side. If it is private money and on private land then I don't really care too much but I still hold that the money could have been better spent on say...feeding the poor? WWJD? LOL. You might want to proof read your commentary before posting. they vs their and damed vs damn It is a sad epithet that Poles who were the subjects of a murderous dictatorial communal failure now enjoy more rights expressing their Religious Freedoms than the nation founded explicitly on that right. I'm seeing such bitterness in these comments. Praying that my God will put someone in your lives that will show you what love really is. The statue is incredible. Thank you to the people who designed and built it. It's not an idol, it's a way of honoring the one true God. May God continue to bless you. Thank you Poppy :) well said. I must be getting tired, Im outa here......I hope. God bless your civility and Love. And your would be definition of what love truly is, is your god? The guy who coerces people to love and worship him for his own vanity otherwise he will torture them for eternity? The guy who allows children to get raped and other such horrific evils? That is NOT love! John 3:16: "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." Think about it: Would you allow your son to die to save anyone else? God is a perfect example of love and sacrifice. Sin causes "children to be raped and other such horrific evils". I questioned this myself for a long time, but have come to truly believe that we must understand what life is like in the depths of valleys to realize just how wonderful it will be on the mountaintop. I am not coerced to love and worship God by any means. I am truly in awe of Him, and worship him because I see how worthy He is of my praise. God does not torture people, people torture people. As far as being tortured for eternity, I pray you find the love that God offers each person before you have to experience what hell really is - eternity apart from God. There are 3 types of believers in this world. There are unbelievers, believers, and make believers. Speaking to the unbelievers: Once you truly believe, not make believe but actually "believe" you can feel something that is not of this world and it is not just in your mind it will come as a physical feeling and you will know something touched you. This is such a wonderful touch and it is "physical". At least a person that is a none believer is being honest. Our churches are full of make believers, people who are there to be a part of society, a club, for entertainment or who are just lonely. But if any of us that truly seek the truth will find what I type about. @ Bill Bowen Amen brother !! Been to church /raised a xian / now a non theist I think I can just be a nice person and help others in my day to day life without having any kind of belief. I understand that some of us raised in church get disappointed because we don't see any proof and the Bible looses it authenticity because of what we are taught in society. With me I went along and was a make believer and then I heard something I had never heard and it shocked me and then I thought if this is correct then maybe there really is a God. I then started reading and seeking what I had heard, not letting anything stand in my way. And in spite of myself thinking all of my negative thoughts I came to know what I speak. Going over to Mcdonalds now be back in an hour. i was born in poland city name czestochowa non for black madonna shrine another catolic bs, living in the usa now for many years............and i am ambarased by this extrawagant nonsence of the catolic churche there and enerywere what i consider the bigest organize cult ...with " former nazzi ? on the top", what they want to pruwe they in power, how much money they have stolen from aneducated peaple who they brain wash or the holly water is radioactive there lol..........before was comunizm now you must be catolic or at list act like one to by any body, i do not see any diference ! i am sorry for polish peaple and poland...........and i am glad to be in usa, not perfect like any country on the earth but ok. The Bible says we are tried at every moment we watch all the corruption and we want to fight back but if we do Satan has another one to take that ones place. Your right about the U.S. It is the most blessed country in the world. But I hope we will do what God ask when he says If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. "It is the most blessed country in the world." Prove it. Doesn't this seem odd? That when people ask about suffering, Christians say god gave us free will, therefor he wont interfere with our suffering but then they will say that god produced this miracle or that, or that he blessed this or that. So apparently god CAN interfere without infringing on our free will but couldn't care less about our suffering. Oh and to imply that a supreme cosmic deity cares about our artificial borders is belittling to your notion of god.

theCafe > Photography > Discuss Photography > Ordered a new lens :) PDA View Full Version : Ordered a new lens :) cfire 06-15-2007, 05:59 PM Woohoo!! Just got an email that my new lens shipped today. It's the Nikon 18-200mm f/3.5~5.6G DX VR Zoom and I am really excited! :) Pakalika 06-15-2007, 08:22 PM Thats the one I want how much was it? cfire 06-15-2007, 08:53 PM I got it from Tri-State for $799. A few places had it for $749 but it was heavily back-ordered whereas Tri-State had it. I ordered it yesterday and shipped it today. In stores (if you can find it), its about $900 cfire 06-15-2007, 08:58 PM Here's a link: [Edited on 6/15/2007 by cfire] fotodog 06-15-2007, 09:54 PM Happy shootin' there Tex!! That's a nice range to have. Tamron makes an 18-250 for about $500. I was impressed by it's quality. cfire 06-18-2007, 02:34 PM Thanks Greg, yeah the range is one of the big reasons why I bought it. For traveling it's great, one lens, no gadget bag just a holster. I didn't find that Tamron when I was looking but everywhere I looked someone was raving about that Nikon. The sales rep at B&H (I always start there) said he couldn't even guess when he'd have it in stock they're so heavily back ordered on it. fotodog 06-18-2007, 05:02 PM That 18-200 will be nice on your fishing trip I can't wait to see the photos from that. cfire 06-18-2007, 05:47 PM Yeah, the fishing trip was the catalyst in going from wanting to buying. I knew I was going to buy it at some point so I bit the bullet and ordered it so I'd have it for Alaska. :) mkeefe 06-18-2007, 07:47 PM Nice lens, gonna wanna see some photos from that :) Politik 06-18-2007, 11:47 PM wow nice, i hear all about this lens im sure you will enjoy. maybe when im out of college (4 years) i can pick one up for 300 =-). TheDoc 06-19-2007, 01:29 AM Very nice lens indeed! Unfortunately, it's one of the VR's that we don't have at work, so I don't get to play with it. The 70-300 Nikon VR is amazing though, so I'm sure the 18-200 VR will be superb. Have fun with it and don't stop shooting! fotodog 06-19-2007, 03:50 AM Normally, I'm not a 'one-lens' guy, but if I was, this is one I would consider. The only issue for me is speed. I've been spoiled by a 2.8 the last few years and giving up 1-1 1/2 stops can be harsh. The 18-200 is incredibly sharp though. I've heard nothing but great things about this lens. And if you've got a good noise reduction filter for PS then the speed is a non-issue. I'm happy for you Frank! Enjoy the fishin' and the shootin'! :cool: cfire 06-19-2007, 01:42 PM Thanks all. Hopefully I'll get some really good shots in Alaska. One of me holding a 100 lb king salmon (the record is 97) would be extra nice. :lol Cappy 06-19-2007, 05:29 PM You go boy! You should find lots of material up there to shoot if you can keep your hands off the pole, that is. We will all be looking for shots. Don't forget to look for the Aurora Borealis (Northern Lights) That lens should be awesome for that! Do you eat your fish or are you strictly "catch and release". I am one that hopes that you would enjoy one of Gods great gifts to man and that is fresh fish eaten by the hand that caught it. Especially out of a somewhat unspoiled wilderness like Alaska! Have fun. When do you return? cfire 06-19-2007, 08:37 PM Thanks Cappy! I will definately be eating some fresh fish immediately after catching any. In fact my buddy that I'm going with was laughing because I told him I was bringing some wasabi and soy sauce. :lol I wondered about the Aurora Borealis but wasn't sure if they'd be visible this time of year. I hope so though. :) I'm going from the 19th of July to the 27th. I plan to shoot a lot of pics. :) kiwicolin 06-19-2007, 10:09 PM Congrats on the lens 100lb of salmon is too much for 2 people to eat *wondering if FedEx delivers fresh fish to Irvine* fotodog 06-20-2007, 01:33 AM Northern Lights?? Dude, that would be killer. remember your tripod and cable release. If not a tripod then at least a small bean bag. Salmon?? Dude that spells grillin' doesn't it?? cfire 06-22-2007, 07:21 PM Colin, I've got your addy. :) Greg, thanks, got 'em and yes...grillin' and chillin' in a large way! We're going for trout one or two days and halibut another day as well. :) Cappy 06-28-2007, 07:18 PM I did a little research on the northern lights and it looks like being that far North- March and Sept.- October are the best months. The problem with the time that you are going is the skies don't get dark enough for a good viewing although the further south you are in Alaska the better chance you have. I live in Northern Wisconsin and have viewed them in July and August, needless to say there is a huge difference between the two. Depending on where you are in Alaska, you might be far enough south and past the equinox that the evening sky would get dark enough to show them off. While it won't be the best time, it would still be worth a look to the sky. I would think you would be looking up to the sky once in a while anyway. :) What a trip that will be! Be safe and good luck! cfire 07-11-2007, 06:06 PM Thanks Cappy! Sorry for the delayed reply and for being extra scarce of late. Floods, deadlines and general madness have been eating my lunch of late..........eight days and counting, no phone, no computers..........aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh:) Powered by vBulletin® Version 4.2.0 Copyright © 2013 vBulletin Solutions, Inc.

Did the leaves fall off? Something not working right? Let us know how we can improve the Photosynth experience. I want to be able to look at the synth image without seeing the curved arrows that indicate that I can view the object from the other side. Is it possible to hide or turn this feature off?

(PhysOrg.com) -- In a recent study published in Biology Letters, a page of science fiction comes to life in a real-life zombie scenario between the ladybug and a parasitical wasp called Dinocampus coccinellae. The study, led by Fanny Maure, a University of Montreal graduate student, looked at exactly what role the ladybug played in the birth and growth of the D. coccinellae. The female D. coccinellae stings the ladybug and lays her egg within the ladybug host. The larva then hatches and eats its way out of the ladybug and within three weeks has hatched out of the ladybugs abdomen. The ladybug, however, is not dead and still very much alive. The grub then spins its orange cocoon within the ladybugs legs until it grows into an adult. It was believed that the ladybug served as protection to the cocoon as its colors and erratic twitching scares off predators. However Maure decided to test this theory and exposed the wasp cocoons to lacewings. What she discovered was that the unprotected cocoons were devoured but so were 85 percent of the ones protected by a dead ladybug. However, when the cocoon was protected by a still alive ladybug in its zombie state, only about one third of them were eaten. It is still unclear how the ladybug survives and still twitches after the larva has left, but Maure believes that the larva may leave behind some type of venom that enables the twitching within the ladybug. Maure also discovered that the longer the ladybug remains alive, the less beneficial it is for the fertility of the growing wasp. It is believed that this is because the tiny grub is limited to the amount it can eat. If it consumes the ladybug to the point of death, it eats but is less likely to reach maturity without protection. By eating less and allowing the adult ladybug to survive, the grub keeps its protection and reaches maturity, but its development is affected by the lack of food needed for proper development. Explore further: Front-row seats to climate change More information: The cost of a bodyguard, Biol. Lett. Published online before print June 22, 2011, doi:10.1098/rsbl.2011.0415 Abstract Host manipulation by parasites not only captures the imagination but has important epidemiological implications. The conventional view is that parasites face a trade-off between the benefits of host manipulation and their costs to fitness-related traits, such as longevity and fecundity. However, this trade-off hypothesis remains to be tested. Dinocampus coccinellae is a common parasitic wasp of the spotted lady beetle Coleomegilla maculata. Females deposit a single egg in the haemocoel of the host, and during larval development the parasitoid feeds on host tissues. At the prepupal stage, the parasitoid egresses from its host by forcing its way through the coccinellid's abdominal segments and begins spinning a cocoon between the ladybird's legs. Remarkably, D. coccinellae does not kill its host during its development, an atypical feature for parasitoids. We first showed under laboratory conditions that parasitoid cocoons that were attended by a living and manipulated ladybird suffered less predation than did cocoons alone or cocoons under dead ladybirds. We then demonstrated that the length of the manipulation period is negatively correlated with parasitoid fecundity but not with longevity. In addition to documenting an original case of bodyguard manipulation, our study provides the first evidence of a cost required for manipulating host behaviour.

(PhysOrg.com) -- Astronomers at The Australian National University have found evidence for the textile that forms the fabric of the Universe. In findings published in the October Astrophysical Journal, the researchers discovered proof of a vast filament of material that connects our Milky Way galaxy to nearby clusters of galaxies, which are similarly interconnected to the rest of the Universe. The team included Dr. Stefan Keller, Dr. Dougal Mackey and Professor Gary Da Costa from the Research School of Astronomy and Astrophysics at ANU. By examining the positions of ancient groupings of stars, called globular clusters, we found that the clusters form a narrow plane around the Milky Way rather than being scattered across the sky, Dr. Keller said. Furthermore, the Milky Ways said, he said.. In our picture, most of these star clusters are the central cores of small galaxies that have been drawn along the filament by gravity. Once these small galaxies got too close the Milky Way the majority of stars were stripped away and added to our galaxy, leaving only their cores. It is thought that the Milky Way has grown to its current size by the consumption of hundreds of such smaller galaxies over cosmic time.

Dane SteveL rawa1 Cosmic strings are originally very thin, but hyperdimensional objects, but when observed from low dimensional perspective, they may appear fuzzy. They exhibit Rayleigh-Plateau and Gregory-Laflamme instabilities typical for hyperdimensional non-Newtonian fluids (they're covered with galaxies like fibbers of slime are covered with droplets). In aether theory the gravitational waves correspond the indeterministic CMBR noise (i.e. not harmonic waves) - but these fibers can behave like SOFAR channel in underwater and they could enable the spreading of weak harmonic ripples with superluminal speed at limited distance - at least in principle. NotAsleep ShotmanMaslo Gravitationally bound structures do contract even in an expanding universe. These cosmic filaments may be the largest such structures possible, larger ones were torn apart by the expansion. Pyle Zephyr: Nonsense. but I 5'd you for "fibbers". Probably unintentional, but it made me chuckle. SteveL: Good point. Normal because we are made of it and most familiar with it. If we ever really observe DM directly, or at least figure out what it is, then it won't be considered not normal any more. Finally, I love the dark matter filaments illustrations. They look cool. Still think DM is a plug, for now, but it makes for some neat drawings. Shootist rawa1 dtyarbrough HannesAlfven Well then, it seems that this is grounds for agreement between plasma-based cosmology and the Big Bang. Keep in mind that the interstellar "clouds" are also filamentary. Birkeland Current magnetic rope structures are also observed regularly connecting the Sun with the Earth. We see filamentation at all scales, and yet we are frequently told that these filaments occur through chance mechanisms. If we do not seek out unifying theories, we certainly will never find them. HannesAlfven Well then, it seems that there are grounds for agreement between plasma-based cosmology and the more conventional framework. We see filaments connecting galaxies. We see filaments in galaxies. We see filaments all around us in interstellar space (the interstellar "clouds"). We see filaments regularly connecting the Sun with the Earth. At what point do we reconsider the notion that all of these filaments are there by chance? If filaments are common, then there is arguably a mechanism holding them together. In the electric universe, we call it Marklund convection. And it's the same thing that happens to charged particles around transmission lines. The transmission lines act as ion pumps. Callippo IMO they were formed in the following mechanism during cosmic inflation Callippo brant Crazy_council quite a few of there predictions are simila to what we see, i am not a mad supporter of the EU theory, it just a lot of there predictions make sence, why do we need dark energy and dark matter. typicalguy Mayday Maybe our universe is expanding because we're moving through a greater medium(multiverse) toward an area of lower pressure, so the "bubbles" expand. I just hope no one puts our "bread" in the oven! Pirouette But I must say that this article does make me think of the parallels between these cosmic filaments and the neurons in a brain that enable messages to travel from one part of said brain to one or more part(s) in other areas of said brain. The neurons are an information superhighway and I'm wondering if these cosmic filaments spoken of could possibly be something similar to neurons. I need to study the brain further because this possibility is highly intriguing. For some reason, the term in "firing synapses" comes to mind. I must have read it somewhere and it stuck with me. Pirouette also: Words below in parentheses indicate the comparison of the cosmic filaments to the brain's firing synapses. In this Wikipedia illustration, the neuron sends a message via axon (filament) utilizing "electrical impulses" toward other neurons who, in turn send messages back and forth to other neurons. In this cosmic filaments article, I think there may be a parallel with stars (neurons), the axon moving electrical impulses through the axon firing synapses (cosmic filaments), and the space between neurons being gray matter could parallel tbe space between stars and galaxies (dark matter). This possibility is giving me a slight chill. Crazy_council the evidence ( lenzin ) could point to other things rather than dark matter/energy. If the fabric of the universe is spinning, this could account for a lot of the evidence we find for dark matter/force. Pirouette But the main concern for some people, I think, would be that if these cosmic filaments do, in reality, electronically and gravitationally connect stars and galaxies to each other throughout the Universe, might it not indicate a designer (created) Universe, and not one well organized by mere chance? Rawa1 said "IMO these dark matter fibbers conceptually corresponds the worm holes and dark strings. They're not worm holes in strict sense, but they still enable to spread information faster with the rest of Universe, than along another directions." I agree. It's either a Communications line, OR similar to a spider's web for catching and holding stars. I am considering Fibonacci numbers and other beautiful works of nature, including the brain. I can see these miracles of Nature increased exponentially in cosmic terms. Should I say it? CHollman82 Gravity acts over unlimited distance regardless... MorituriMax Probably because we can see it and study it, and are made of it, hence, normal.

Blaise Pascal, Pensées, #72 TheGhostofOtto1923 TheGhostofOtto1923 Pirouette I have a feeling that your quote was meant for me. If so, thank you. There are vast similarities between the macro and micro. Many years ago, I think it was in the1980s, my then young son had an amazing program on his computer that showed Fractals, whereby no matter where you clicked on the large pattern on the screen, it zoomed in to show the same pattern again, but in micro. I found it fascinating but I still don't know how it was done. Regarding my brain analogy, the firing synapses does remind me of the electromagnetic current of the "rope" connection between all of these "globes" in the Universe. Truly fascinating, I want more!!

(Phys.org) -- University of California, San Diego computer scientists explored a new approach to secure browser design in a paper presented in August 2012 at the 21st USENIX Security Symposium, the foremost research conference on computer network security. The authors are computer science professor Sorin Lerner and computer science Ph.D. students Dongseok Jang and Zachary Tatlock. Over the past 15 years, Web-based applications have become commonplace. They are used for a wide variety of activities, from interacting with a bank or healthcare provider to managing business functions or spending leisure time interacting on a social network. As a result of this ubiquity, hackers have learned to exploit security flaws in order to access the wealth of private information tracked and accessed by Web browsers. Indeed, security breaches have become so frequent that there are now annual competitions where security experts show off their hacking chops by breaking into the latest versions of browsers, and companies such as Google pay cash prizes to people who report bugs that pose a security threat. Because users generally want a browser that is trustworthy, secure browsing is a high priority for software developers. Yet current browsers are in fact very fragile. They are complex pieces of software with rich features that allow for flexibility and programmability, and even small bugs can make the browser vulnerable to attack. Indeed, browser vulnerabilities have been used to infiltrate the internal networks of American defense contractors and leading tech firms. Attempts to improve browser security are often ad-hoc engineering efforts; and even when formal guarantees are provided, they come in the form of proofs over a model or idealization of the browser, not the browser itself. A buggy implementation can invalidate intended guarantees and still leave users open to attack. Jang and Tatlock, the computer science Ph.D. students, also previewed their work in a presentation to the first Center for Networked Systems (CNS) Security Day in May 2012. They explained that previous verification techniques for browser security operate on a model or abstraction of the browser, and not on its actual implementation. This has created what Tatlock calls a ‘formality gap’, a discrepancy between what is verified and what is implemented. It is through this gap that hackers can infiltrate a browser even if it has been verified using strong formal methods. There is one known way to bridge this formality gap: implement the software in a proof assistant and use the proof assistant’s interactive environment to formally prove, in full formal detail, that the software implementation is correct. More specifically, the programmer defines a specification stating what the code should do, and then uses the proof assistant to formally prove that the code in fact satisfies this specification, beginning with the most basic axioms and then building on them. Because of the precise way in which the program has been constructed, and the foundational nature of the proof, this kind of formal verification provides extremely strong guarantees. In the past, however, this kind of verification has faced a number of practical barriers. One of the main challenges is that building formal proofs for applications with millions of lines of code is extremely time consuming, if not completely impossible. As a result, programmers using proof assistants have either restricted themselves to verifying stripped-down versions of their applications, or have had to expand heroic effort to perform the proofs, spending much more time and programmer-power than would be practical. Jang, Tatlock and Lerner speculated: What if there were ways to make the proofs easier by restricting the code that must be verified to a few hundred lines (as opposed to a few million)? The research team devised a technique, dubbed ‘formal shim verification’, for doing just this. Formal shim verification says Lerner, consists of “creating a small browser kernel which mediates access to resources for all other browser components, and then formally verifying that this browser kernel is correct in a proof assistant.” In other words, only a small part of the application that is vulnerable to outside scrutiny and attack will be verified using a proof assistant. Following these design parameters, the team created Quark, a Web browser that uses a kernel-based architecture similar to Google Chrome. In particular, the heart of Quark is a small kernel responsible for mediating access to the rest of the application. Unlike Chrome’s kernel, however, the Quark kernel has been verified in full formal detail using a proof assistant, allowing it to make strong guarantees about the security of the browser. As Jang explains, Quark “exploits formal shim verification and enables us to verify security properties for a million lines of code while reasoning about only a few hundred lines of code in the kernel.” This critical distinction between a verified kernel and the non-verified components allowed the researchers to incorporate a number of state-of-the-art implementations into the non-verified parts of Quark, while still maintaining strong security guarantees. For example, Quark is able to use the WebKit open-source layout engine, the same layout engine used in Safari and Chrome. Using such realistic components has made Quark into a practical and usable browser, which can successfully run complex pages like Gmail, Google Maps, Facebook and Amazon. During the prototyping phase of Quark, one thing became clear: “When forced to choose between adding complexity to the browser kernel,” says Jang, “it was always better to keep the kernel as simple as possible.” As a result, the current version of Quark is in some cases too simplistic. For example, it does not support some standard features of the Web, such as third-party cookies, and in some cases it enforces non-standard security policies. Despite these current limitations, Quark is still capable of running many complex Web applications, including Facebook and Gmail. Tatlock, Jang and Lerner are determined that this is only the first implementation of Quark. They already have some ideas about how to include a number of standard browser features without severely complicating their kernel or having to work through a fundamental redesign. Concludes Tatlock: “Our approach will handle more standard policies given design changes to our prototype and further engineering effort.” “Establishing Browser Security Guarantees through Formal Shim Verification,” by Dongseok Jang, Zachary Tatlock and Sorin Lerner at University of California, San Diego.

There." Dietary intake of fish oil can also decrease the risk of atherosclerosis, arrhythmias, heart attack, sudden cardiac death and even health failure. Dr. Lavie adds that although there is a smaller benefit in reducing heart failure death—9 percent mortality benefit in a major recent randomized controlled trial—this is still very impressive given patients' grave prognosis. "If we translate this finding, it means that we only need to treat 56 patients for four years to prevent one death," he said. "And we are talking about a very safe and relatively inexpensive therapy." Most of the evidence for the cardioprotective benefits supports the use of DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) and EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid), the long-chain fatty acids in the omega-3 family. According to Dr. Lavie, EPA and DHA work by getting into the membranes of cells and, in doing so, may help to improve the heart's electrical activity, vascular tone, plaque stabilization and blood pressure, among other benefits. Studies show that the reduction in CV events is inversely related to the tissue level EPA and, even more so, DHA. Based on these findings, and because the body does not produce its own essential fatty acids, the authors recommend that healthy individuals should "Patients should talk with their doctors about whether a fish oil supplement is needed to get the right amount and, in turn, benefit from the associated cardiovascular protection." Dr. Lavie and his team came across only a few negative studies, including a recent one that showed no benefit in post-MI patients, but it has raised the possibility that omega-3 fatty acids may not provide as much additional protective benefits in low-risk patients already receiving extensive and rigorous post-MI therapies. "It was a one-year study that enrolled fewer than 4,000 patients and the majority were using aspirin, clopidogrel, statins, beta-blockers and ACE-inhibitors—the best of modern medicine," he said. "It may be that their risk was so low to start, that a larger study with longer follow-up would be required to better assess the true efficacy of omega-3 in such relatively low-risk patients." Authors say further studies are needed to investigate and determine optimal dosages, as well as the relative ration of DHA and EPA that provides maximal heart protection in those at risk of cardiovascular disease, and in the treatment of atherosclerosis, arrhythmias and heart attacks. Interestingly, culture has historically played a role; sometimes dubbed the "Eskimo factor," research shows cultures that have traditionally supported a diet rich in fish oil (Asian and Alaskan American populations) had a lower prevalence of cardiovascular disease and mortality, including a reduced prevalence of atherosclerosis and heart disease, compared to European and United States populations where consumption of fish is lower. Ironically, the introduction of Western dietary practices into Asian and Native American cultures may be diluting the cardioprotective benefits enjoyed by these populations by both reducing the overall intake of fish oils, as well as overwhelming its benefits with other deleterious dietary practices, including high intakes of saturated and trans fats and cholesterol.

Climate change is a topic that impacts the weather not only globally, but also locally. While some people may be concerned about the melting ice sheets at the far corners of the Earth, what most really want to know is "how will global warming affect me?" -- and they often turn to their local weatherperson to find out. A study released today study by the George Mason University Center for Climate Change Communication in Fairfax, Va., showed that 27 percent of broadcast meteorologists -- who are, according to the National Institutes of Standards and Technology, "often the most visible representatives of science in U.S. households" -- believe that global warming is a scam. According to the National Science Foundation’s 2010 Science and Engineering Indicators, television is the number one source the public turns to for information about science and technology. Broadcast meteorologists are often the only people at TV news stations with a science background. But the education and experience of those who deliver news about the weather varies dramatically. "In television, when it comes to weather, there is an extremely wide range of education sets," said Jim Gandy, chief meteorologist at WLTX-TV in Columbia, S.C. "Some have bachelor’s degrees, master’s degrees, and Ph.D.'s, but you also have some without." When a topic such as climate change comes up in the news, broadcast meteorologists -- no matter what their educational background -- are often thrust into the spotlight. Some embrace the opportunity and try to educate their audiences on the science, while others avoid it at all costs. "People are uninformed and believe climate change is a hoax," said Gandy. "I occasionally respond to comments posted on our station's website, but you better know your science and get your facts straight before you post on my website." Some meteorologists surveyed said that there is a lot of conflicting information about climate change. "Science is about questioning things and I think we should all be in the middle, question the information," said Brad Sowder, First Alert Meteorologist at KOAA-TV in Colorado Springs, Colo. "I have been more on the side of a skeptic." Another weathercaster who wanted to remain anonymous felt that the topic of climate change is less about the science and more about politics. "Personally, I think that global warming is a political issue, and I feel like it is safer to stay out of it," he said. The survey also found that 62 percent of broadcast meteorologists want to report more on climate change. "We have a good comprehensive look at television weathercasters from this survey," said Kris Wilson, a senior lecturer with the School of Journalism at University of Texas at Austin and one of the lead investigators of the survey. Beginning in July, the next phase of the National Science Foundation-funded study will begin. A test case at Gandy’s station will include 30-second segments in some of the weathercasts to educate viewers about climate change. "It will be a year-long effort using our resources on-air and on the Internet in an effort to educate the public about climate change past, present, and future," said Gandy. "I wish the public knew how difficult it is to have knowledge of climate science. Simply being a meteorologist is not enough, and this is a mistake that some television meteorologists make."

Why can't folks whose business it is to inform the public give us data like those in the table? deatopmg THe Earth has warmed and cooled and warmed since the little ice age ended ca. 1800. GW is a very complicated issue but if the so called expert scientists don't operate w/ total transparency so that their work can be replicated (this is how real science works - "consensus" is for layman) then we will never get to the bottom of this AND we will be scammed by the politicians and charlatans. omatumr So they changed their story to "anthropologic climate change". Meanwhile, they continue to ignore precise space-age measurements that show why Earth's climate and Earth's heat source are always changing ["Earth's heat source - The Sun", Energy & Environment 20 (2009) 131-144]. With kind regards, Oliver K. Manuel Former NASA Principal Investigator for Apollo kivahut Sleepership I have ever seen such lushness to trees and gardens here so early the warmth, C02 and heavy precipitation have helped. To the climate change deniers- we can only hope that the almost perfect correlation between CO2 levels over the last 15 million years and global climate/temperatures is a hoax - cuz if it is not- we are in deep trouble as a species. deatopmg marjon "The Weather Channel's most prominent climatologist is advocating that broadcast meteorologists be stripped of their scientific certification if they express skepticism about predictions of manmade catastrophic global warming." Ronan Bearing that in mind...again, what are you getting at? Unless you can show me a situation in the past where temperatures rose dramatically and then stopped rising (for whatever reason) once carbon dioxide began to go up (showing that carbon dioxide really doesn't affect temperature, and that CO2 levels are only an effect of temperature shifts, not a cause), then your argument doesn't seem to hold much water. frenchie thermodynamics marjon What is the uncertainty associated with this 'effect'? thermodynamics marjon These conclusions are contrary to the IPCC [2007] statement: �[M]ost of the observed increase in global average temperatures since the mid-20th century is very likely due to the observed increase in anthropogenic greenhouse gas concentrations.�" Here is a scientific paper discussing uncertainty. thermodynamics marjon Applying GUM to bad data and a bad theory is a waste of time.

Yes, that's right- this is what phenomenal & gracious PnP pilot Russell did for our special boxer named Ivan Finn. He flew from TX to SC just to pick up our special Ivan (which SonJa can vouch for) in order to fly him to safety back in TX. UNBELIEVABLE! THX RUSSELL!!!! You are most definitely a flying angel!! Like so many, Ivan Finn had a VERY RUFF start in life. A huge special THX also goes to Cynthia with Almost Home Dogz Rescue in TX who agreed to find Ivan Finn a safe FURever home (meanwhile in their foster-care program) & another special THX goes to SonJa for taking EXTREMELY good care of this boy until we could get this long transport worked out! Never in my mind did I dream that we could get this done w/ only 1 pilot!!! This boy is SAFE THX to so many people!!! It takes so many!!! Ivan, my sweet boy, may you ALWAYS be SAFE & LOVED from now on!! THX Ute w/ Blue Ridge Boxer Rescue for also helping with Ivan. Sallie

This year, American Idol runner-up Jessica Sanchez is being considered to play the lead role in the long-rumored film adaptation of Broadway and West End hit, “Miss Saigon.” In a report by Broadway World, the original Kim star Lea Salonga thinks she would be great for the part. “If she’s the one that they’ve chosen, or she’s somebody in serious consideration, then that’s a good thing,” Lea said. “We all know she’s talented, we all know she’s actually quite beautiful.” “The film, which is still in the early stages of development, had previously announced Lee Daniels as director; no official release date has yet been set,” the report added.

Experience PCC In addition to preparing people for success through academic endeavors, Pitt Community College features an intercollegiate athletics department that is educating and empowering student-athletes for success in life, higher education and the workforce by emphasizing teamwork, character and sportsmanship. The college fields four intercollegiate teams—men’s baseball, men’s basketball, women’s fast-pitch softball and women’s volleyball—that compete in the National Junior College Athletic Association’s (NJCAA) Region X Conference. PCC athletic teams have been extremely competitive over the years and have won consistently at the regional and district levels. In addition to capturing conference titles, several. Baseball Started in 1995, PCC’s baseball program has emerged as a perennial national contender that has produced a number of athletes who have continued their playing careers at four-year institutions and professionally. Two former Bulldogs, Freddie Bynum and Lonnie Chisenhall, have reached the Major Leagues with the Oakland Athletics and Cleveland Indians, respectively. Since 2006, the baseball program has competed under the direction of Tommy Eason, a former East Carolina University standout and minor leaguer. In his first seven seasons, Eason guided the Bulldogs to a 240-110 record, three Region X Conference Tournament championships, and the college’s first-ever appearance in the NJCAA Division I World Series in Grand Junction, Colo. Basketball In a state rich in basketball history, PCC took its first turn on the hardwood in 1969, struggling at first –even disappearing entirely for a season—before finding momentum and success with Charles Coburn as coach. Coburn, a former PCC basketball player and the college’s first athletic director, compiled a 169-151 record at Pitt before stepping down in December 1993 due to illness. Though PCC discontinued basketball after Coburn’s retirement, the program was resurrected15 years later and returned to NJCAA play at the start of the 2008-09 season. The Bulldogs are now led by Pitt County native Darrick Mullins, who took over midway through the 2010-11 season. After posting a 7-9 mark with a team that had gone 0-7 before his arrival, Mullins went 20-12 in his first full season as coach. Softball Like baseball, PCC’s fast-pitch softball program has also flourished on the diamond and in generating players who transfer to four-year colleges and universities to continue their academic and playing careers. In addition to producing numerous All-Region X Conference performers, the program made back-to-back appearances in the NJCAA Division I Fast-Pitch Softball Championship in St. George, Utah, in 2010 and 2011. Since Junior Bailey took the helm in 2006, the PCC softball program had recorded a 217-115-1 mark entering the 2013 season. Volleyball Tom Marsh, a PCC psychology instructor, is responsible for getting Pitt’s volleyball program off the ground in 2000 and leading the Bulldogs to three regional championships and a pair of national tournament appearances. William Way took the reins when Marsh first retired from coaching in 2005 and led PCC to an 85-50 record but never could achieve post-season success. Marsh returned to the sidelines in 2009 and guided the Bulldogs to a 92-44 mark before retiring once again at the end of the 2012 campaign. PCC hired Caitlin Wooten to lead its volleyball program in February. The Maryland native has previous experience as an assistant volleyball coach with N.C. Wesleyan College (three seasons) and as an East Carolina Junior Volleyball Club coach.

As a human who keeps his reproductive organs on the outside, I feel I am ill equipped to discuss this. But as it’s probably the most important issue in gaming since, well, ever, I feel it’s my duty to chime in on the subject. The kraken of misogyny has risen out of the murky waters of online gaming in what seems, to me, to be very recent times. As a white, heterosexual male who prides himself on not acting like a complete cockshine, I wasn’t aware it existed. A few months ago, I requested to add a fellow Twitter user to my PS3 friends list, as she enjoyed a game of Modern Warfare 3 now and then. Her response was “Only if you promise not to get abusive if you get beaten by a girl.” I thought she was joking, but I soon discovered that she wasn’t. I was shocked, disgusted, and most predominantly baffled by what I discovered as I discussed the matter with other female gamers. Don’t take my word for it. One only has to look at Fat, Ugly, or Slutty to see what female gamers have to put up with on a daily basis. Or look at the completely uncalled for abuse directed at Anita Sarkeesian and Felicia Day. As I implied earlier, this doesn’t directly affect me, but you can be as sure as shit that it indirectly affects me. I happen to quite like women. I have many female friends. Online, offline, and in JPEG format. My wife’s a woman. My daughter will be one eventually. I’d quite like to share the experience of multiplayer video games with these people, but these misogynist dickslaps are ruining it for me and everyone like me. When I ask a woman to play games online with me and her first response is to ask me not to abuse her, things be fucked. So where does it come from and why does it happen? Women have been poorly represented in video games for decades, but I don’t remember any hatred towards them like we’re experiencing now. I remember that the editor of Your Sinclair was famously a woman. Danielle Bunten was a transgendered game developer, but nobody cared. She made M.U.L.E. for fuck’s sake, why would it matter? My humble opinion is that it comes down to two simple facts: 1) Gaming has truly opened up to the mainstream now. It is no longer reserved for nerds. 2) Xbox Live, the PSN, and online PC gaming has given all the honking great fuckwits both a voice and anonymity. Given those two enabling technologies, misogynist gamers can now yell at women what would once be muttered towards their shoes. That doesn’t answer the why though. I have no idea why it happens. Do these people have something to fear from women playing “their” games? Are they intimidated by the presence of women? Do they just truly dislike them for no discernible reason? I have no idea. I’d like to round this off with a helpful answer and a joke, but I don’t have an answer and it really isn’t a laughing matter. Real people who I like and respect are being threatened with death and rape on a daily basis. Real women are being driven away from something I care about by the most obnoxious of arseholes. The only thing we can do is confront it when we see it. Don’t let it go without comment. Report it to the gaming service provider. They generally do give a shit. Make it unacceptable. As another female, gaming friend of mine once brilliantly said, “Politely point at the ‘No Douchebags’ sign on the wall.”

.. ABC targeted the $1.8 million in consulting fees Gingrich received from federally backed mortgage company Freddie Mac: Through Gingrich Group, the former House speaker consulted for reportedly $1.8 million for eight years for Freddie Mac, the federally backed mortgage giant that most conservatives say should be eliminated. While Gingrich has denied lobbying for them, he hasn’t provided a viable explanation of what kind of services he provided to an organization that he himself recently said should be abolished.: The connections with Washington insiders and multi-million dollar corporations makes it hard for Gingrich to cast himself as an outsider and clouds his “new Newt” campaign, experts say. “Even if there’s no ethical or legal impropriety, the optics are bad,” said John Pitney Jr., politics professor at Claremont McKenna College who worked for Gingrich.. Attention! Hear ye American Political Shoppers! Before ye pass through ye Election Doors, heed ye this above cited exemplary definition of contemporary “Hypocrisy”. Hear Ye, Verily. Newt’s team should go over the list of records Obama has concealed, pull Newt’s counterparts, and begin publishing. Newt is in for some very tough times. Our ultra-left, captive media will begin investigating Newt’s background. They’ll want key info like who gave what as presents at Newt’s first wedding. And, they’ll want to know why Newt only got a “B” in the undergraduate course. The same media will be able to hypothesize the REAL reason why Newt can’t provide details, today. Honest observers must be able to contrast Newt’s candor with Hussein’s mendacity! Ooo, it’s the big bad Boogeyman! Boogey, boogey, boogey! Look at the list of recipients of F&F political campaign contributions. Sort by total amount. You do not see a Republican name until way down the list. I do not think Gingrich’s name is on the list. Obama’s name was #2 by 2008. Gingrich has ties to F&F? Really? How about Obama’s ties to F&F?!? The eventual winner for the Republican side will not only stand up to the press but challenge them at every turn. Challenge every word they utter and call them liars to their face on their own networks. Challenge them on not only the reasons for some of their questions but any facts that are included in the questions. Always answer each and every question with one of your own directed at the moderator as to why they would ask that question of you and not Obama, which when you look back would almost always be the case. Always redirect questions to the treatment of Obama compared to yourself or the Republican Party. Especially throw back in their faces Saul Alinsky and the other Marxist creeps lurking in the halls of the White House. Throw back in their faces the low life behavior of Edwards that the press didn’t covered until the last and the ethics of blow job Billy and the under the desk escapades with a barely out of her teens intern. Your opponent isn’t Obama, it’s the press. Hammer them and challenge them the likes of which has never been seen before. – lips to their ears, we can only hope! And Newt is likely the only person now running that can do it – and do it well at that. Chris Christie is about the only other Republican I can think of that is capable as Newt in this regard. Mr. “I’m presidential” Romney can’t or won’t do it but that is how Obama will be defeated. Defeat the MSM – then Obama. He’ll be truly naked without them. “Experts say …” Ah, yes. This is how they do it. Claim whatever the hell you want to say about a candidate, or a policy, or a scientific theory, or WHATtever — the truth, or relative truth, of the claim is irrelevant, so long as EXPERTS SAY. And the great thing for the Obama Media is that they can ascribe “experts say” to any person or group who poses a threat to The One. Amazing, isn’t it? So, for how long has this been going on? Unfortunately, I don’t know. I’ve only been aware of it for the past decade or so, prior to that I naively believed that our major papers and nightly news outlets were interested in being as objective as possible. Ha! What an idiot I was. Then came the atrocity of 9/11, and I started paying more attention to the communiques of college-trained journalists. I needed to know what was going on out there. I craved news information as never before. And in the process I made a great personal discovery. It began with the European Press — more particularly, the British Press. I began to get the sense that, gosh, these people who I thought were our friends and appreciative allies actually kinda had it out for us. Especially after President Bush, with the full backing of the U.S. Congress and national public opinion, decided to take down the Big Dog, Saddam Hussein. I started to notice that the media had no interest whatsoever in interviewing anti-Saddam voices. No no. It was, rather, always the same guy whose “narratives” they wanted to hear: Abu the one-legged carwash attendant. And he could always be counted upon to say the god-awful things about American policies and American troop conduct that Eurotrash leftists SO wanted to hear. That was a real learning experience for me. And then this rabid anti-U.S. bias migrated to our own shores, and soon we had the New York Times sending out its top reporters to interview this same Abu fella, and fixating on the aberration of Abu Grahib, ad nauseum, and giving free advice to Islamic terror organizations on how to stay a step ahead of American (and cooperative Western) stratagems to roll up al Qaeda & Co. I asked myself: Isn’t there some law against aiding and abetting the enemy in time of war? How can America’s “newspaper of record” get away with this crap? And why are the people so numb to the outrage? Where the hell am I? So, anyway, to make a long story short, I now know EXACTLY what we traditional, patriotic Americans are up against. The American Left is a wing of the International Left. The MSM are almost to the man, card-carrying members of this leftist mindset and agenda. We are so screwed! And now they are systematically targeting every GOP presidential hopeful that comes down the pike. It began, by the most vicious of means, with the smearing of Sarah Palin and, yes, her family, including her newborn. Since then the Obama Media (which had no interest whatsoever in Rev. Wright or the Ayers terrorists), with support from feckless, so-called “conservative” talking-head elites (like Bill Kristol, Karl Rove, Charles Krauthhammer [when he's off his meds], etc.) knee-capped early front-runners Michele Bachmann, Rick Perry, and Herman Cain. Now they’re whipping up a nice vat of slime for Newt Gingrich. And after that, it will be a simple matter of pulling out every last peg — no matter how sleazy or bigoted — to destroy Mitt Romney. And we will have plenty of Obama stalking horses, Ronpaulians, and assorted self-immolating candidate groupies here on PJMedia (and elsewhere in the rightwing blogosphere) HELPING the MSM leftists to put America’s worst president ever back in office for another four years of sheer audio-visual misery that no amount of prayer and alcohol will assuage. And when that happens, I will truly no longer care. I will cancel my cable (yeah, like that’ll be a huge loss). I will delete ALL of my news-media bookmarks. I will … I will join a monastery. No. My wife wouldn’t allow it. But I will TUNE OUT completely. And gladly. I will turn to stocking up on ammo, novels. and freeze-dried food. I have enough music, old movies, and T.V. series on backup drives to see me through to my dying days. Because if Obama gets another four years, he will truly ruin everything that this country once stood for. And it will be every man for himself. Please, while Newt did not lobby in the precise legalese of federal law, he did lobby in the language of a sane person. Selling your influence to drive policy decisions in the favor of your clients is lobbying. It’s a sad statement to the state of our party that a snake like Newt is even in the running. He respects America as much as his wives. Who is Huntsman? I imagine the following riposte from Gingrich: “Fellow Americans, you may have heard or read recently that, in my years as a private citizen, I earned approximately $2 million by providing advice to Freddie Mac, one of the two federally-organized and subsidized mortgage giants. Also, I’ve organized a health-care-oriented think tank, the Center for Health Transformation, of which a number of large health-care companies are dues-paying members. “A number of papers, including the Washington Post, and a larger number of Websites, including that of the American Broadcasting Corporation, are trying to make these enterprises sound like crimes. Yet no one has even hinted that I’ve done anything criminal, or even ethically questionable. It’s all about appearances: Newt Gingrich has made some money by providing advice to people and companies he knows, so something shady has to be behind it! “Well, my friends, I invite anyone to find a shady dealing in those efforts, by myself or anyone else connected with either of them. And note this: The source of all the information about either of them is my campaign. I’ve not only released the financials of those undertakings; I’ve also released the Center for Health Transformation’s donor list, which I was not legally required to do. You see, I believe that a man who seeks the highest office in the world has an obligation — an ethical obligation — to be forthcoming about his doings, past and present. They’re the best possible guide to how he’ll act in the future. “Compare my degree of transparency about my affairs to that of Barack Hussein Obama and the organizations that have promoted and supported him. Do we know anything but the bare bones about President Obama’s past? How did he go from an obscure community organizer in Chicago to the top of the poliltical world? Have we seen his transcripts from Occidental University? Do we know anything about his years at Columbia University, where he studied law? What professors remember him at either school? What do they have to say about him? “What about his earlier life? He had a mentor named Frank, mentioned in his autobiography, who was apparently extremely important to him. What was Frank’s full name? Could it have been Frank Marshall Davis, the revolutionary Communist organizer of the Sixties and Seventies? “His Chicago years are just as much a mystery. Just how deeply influenced was he by Reverend Jeremiah Wright? How deeply involved was he with terrorists Bill Ayres and Bernardine Dohrn? What about his involvements with Tony Rezko and Alex Giannoulias? Did he or did he not get a shady “sweetheart deal” with which to finance the purchase of his mansion in Chicago? And did he collaborate with former Illinois governor Rod Blagojevich in the attempt to sell his seat in the United States Senate? “Friends, I believe in full disclosure. I’ve made it a principle of my campaign. Now it’s time for you to compare my record, on that subject and all related ones, to that of President Obama. Decide for yourself whom you’ll believe — and come November 6, 2012, whom you’ll support. Thank you for your time and attention.” (Exit stage right to wild sustained cheers from the crowd.) Well done! *applause* As usual from the left we see the politics of lies and personal destruction. I have to admit, one thing I definitely like about Newt is that he doesn’t take any BS from the MSM. He knows how to fight back. He has also been very good about not joining in on MSM efforts to get the repub candidates to spend all their time trashing each other, instead of Obama. Please note that Newt made about 200K as a “consultant” for two Fed outfits which incompetently lost hundreds of billions. Was it his advice which led to the losses? This clown is bought and paid for by the International Bankers, including the Federal Reserve, aka Rothschild West.His personal life betrays his amorality. He is a Rino- John Edwards puppet; a Herman Cain with brains. Mothers, don’t let your boys grow up to be Newts. My God! Has it come to the point that our defense of a presidential candidate (Newt) is that he’s done nothing criminal. The MSM is not friendly, to be sure, but conservatives will not win the White House by running against them. Newt is a duplicitous clown at best, and a deceptive seller of influence at worst. The Newtster carries more baggage than an Amtrak porter. Obama must pray each night for him to be the GOP nominee. It’ll be like shooting fish in a barrel. Republican Senators and Congress members must be quaking at being pulled down by an Obama landslide. Wake up, folks! We’re looking foolish to the rest of the country in entertaining thoughts of this clown..) Hello my family member! I want to say that this article is awesome, nice written and include almost all significant infos. I?d like to peer extra posts like this .

Inverted Hollywood: The Pitch for e-Knowledge Abstract To open this article, I begin with a confession. While I have learned enormously from research articles and scholarly texts, I have also learned a lot from movies. Like most typical pre-service teachers, when I entered my teacher education program, I had ingested more celluloid than I had academic articles. To frame this chapter, I am going to fuse the theme of increasing the use of online resources in teacher education with movie making: I am going to give you a movie pitch for the Public Knowledge Project - The First Installment. I am intentionally choosing a movie pitch script for this chapter to illustrate several points. Not the least of which is that scholarly communication in general (through online or any means) has a problem of Inverted Hollywood. Scholars or academics have wonderfully substantial content to deliver but we often lack the means to motivate users to visit our web sites and to read our articles. Hollywood, on the other hand, can motivate high interest amongst the public but can rarely deliver any substantial content (Norman, 1993, p.5). In this chapter, I intend to make the analysis of the Public Knowledge Project more 'Hollywood' and, in the process, hopefully motivate a few readers to visit the Public Knowledge Project website Keywords Teacher education; Knowledge management

Brokaw: 'They saved the world, nothing less' Tom Brokaw returned to his alma mater Friday to participate in the W.O. Farber Center for Civic Leadership, a conference in which members of the World War III generation addressed issues of citizenship, leadership and character with their Baby Boomer counterparts. Brokaw, author of the best-selling The Greatest Generation, a book on the sacrifices of the World War II generation, spoke early Friday afternoon in Slagle Auditorium. by M. Jill Sundstrom As a new millennium bears down upon us, Tom Brokaw says today�s generation must focus beyond narrow self interest, building strength out of community and common destiny, much like what Brokaw calls the �greatest generation� of the Great Depression and World War II. Speaking at The University of South Dakota April 16 to an audience who came to hear him address the World War II Conference hosted by the W.O. Farber Center for Civic Leadership, the NBC Nightly News anchorman praised the greatest generation, the subject of his best-selling book. �They saved the world. Nothing less than that,� he said. �Each of us here today is a beneficiary of the sacrifices of those times, but most of all that idea that we have a common purpose, whatever individual ideas there may be. �Individual freedom. When we think of what the world was like at the beginning of the 20th century and now what it�s like at the end of that century, the most powerful idea is that of freedom,� Brokaw continued. �And the generation about which I wrote provided the underpinnings for that idea and it only flourished and expanded in the 50 years after the end of the war.� Brokaw added that �we should be proud patrons of the idea of freedom as the new millennium is upon us.� But this is a challenging time for America. �We�re back to sailing uncharted seas because the changes of the world are so profound,� Brokaw said. �The future is so uncertain. The challenge we face now is who we are and what we want for our place in the world. It is a testing time for America.� Brokaw is concerned that there is �almost no regard for common ground� in these times of narrow focus on self interest. There is no civil rights movement, no Vietnam, no Watergate, Ronald Reagan or John F. Kennedy to capture America�s attention, he said. The Clinton/Lewinsky scandal was one without anyone to cheer for, Brokaw added, �from Clinton�s reckless behavior, compounded by lies, to Kenneth Starr�s zealotry and the Republican fervor to air every detail whether it fit the scenario or not. And the media was caught up in a giant game of ?gotcha.� � Still, Brokaw calls this an exciting, dynamic time for America, a country which must build upon its distinctions of cultural diversity and industrial achievements. �Wherever we live, whatever our faith or economic interest in this great melting pot of a nation, we have a common destiny,� Brokaw said. �That is the legacy of the greatest generation. We should not shirk from sharing what we�ve earned and learned with the rest of the world. �We�ve been tested before with what we hoped was the last great war,� he continued. �We�ve survived other wars and constitutional crises, and we�ve emerged whole and strong from the impeachment process of the past year. We are a robust nation that has the best the world has to offer. �We owe it to ourselves and the greatest generation to seize this moment and raise our standards to the next level so that 50 years from now, another University of South Dakota graduate can write a book and say that, too, was another greatest generation.�

Consumers are reaping the benefits of the recent steady decline in gas prices as South Dakotans enter the middle of the summer driving season. AAA predicts that lower gas prices will help motivate a record 42.3 million Americans. AAA projects 128,700 South Dakotans will travel over the holiday, a five percent increase over last year's holiday period. Eighty-nine percent of South Dakota travelers will be getting there by private motor vehicle (up four percent over July 4, 2011), five percent by air (a ten percent jump over one year ago), and six percent by other means, such as bus or train... Today's national average price for a gallon of regular self-serve gasoline is $3.40 This is ten cents cheaper than the price one week ago, 25 cents cheaper than one month ago, 18 cents cheaper than one year ago, and 54 cents cheaper than the year-to-date peak price of $3.94 in early April. The national average price at the pump has now dropped 14 days in a row and 69 of the previous 71 days. The nationwide average price has not been this low since January 27, 2012, almost five months ago. South Dakota's least expensive gasoline today is found once again in North Sioux City, where the citywide average is $3.272 for regular self-serve. The state's most expensive gasoline is in Pine Ridge at $3.899.

French clubs set to stay in the HEC Related links Also see French clubs will not quit Europe's leading cup competitions to play in an alternative tournament just with English clubs. The vice-president of the French National Rugby League (LNR) Patrick Wolff said his organisation wanted to continue playing the Heineken Heineken Cup's current format is weighted in favour of the Celtic nations as Leinster and Munster have won five of the last seven editions between them. Leinster have won three of the last four Heineken Cups and their rivals in England and France claim that is partly a result of a qualification system that allows them to rest their players during told AFP. . crunchfit says... @ APV1 No worries man, one of the nicer / more genuine posters here even if we have some very different point of views. Posted 19:08 26th September 2012 Toulousain says... funny, i'm still waiting for an answer from you crunchfit. you may not be an anglophobe, but you seem to be happy to ignore we french. and then complain on another page that APV is ignoring you. (do you have a man crush?) what's the word i'm looking for? double standards or hypocrite. can't decide. you choose. btw, i'm afraid the anglo-french arguments are very simple, and are being made by the powers that be, i.e. not any of us. i think it is time to just agree to disagree and see how the cookie crumbles. it's out of our hands. being polite is not. let's focus on that instead. Posted 18:08 26th September 2012 APV1 says... @ crunchfit - please accept my genuine apology for non-response. I'm so sick and tired of the nonsensical anti-English rubbish, that I'm probably missing bits. Let me have them again and I'll do my best. The comments I picked out were from a variety of people, although some more than others. They were generalist comments, which is why I selected them, although they were all related to the HC debate. Posted 17:37 26th September 2012 crunchfit says... @ APV1 My questions are direct and simple. Surely, if your argument is actually valid it would have been easier to answer the questions then spend time picking out parts of comments. Not to mention, a bunch of those comments are from one poster and many are about those involved in the decision making, not the English people. Anyway, I'm not an anglophobe and you posted some of that comment before to get me to respond. Now I have and you won't answer my questions. It seems to me like you don't have a good answer, to be honest. Maybe you do though and in that case, maybe you could provide an answer. Posted 15:54 26th September 2012 APV1 says... @ crunchfit - here's why I can't be bothered anymore. The Anglophobes have got their wish - another opportunity to have a go and not discuss rugby. The labelling of a whole nation and / or all of its supporters is shameful: typically English and arrogant Arrogant English as usual! WOW the Enger-lish are looking pretty stupid now aren't they??? hahahaha BOOM The greedy English amateurs the utter arrogance and insubordination of your moronic bartering English rugby is a laughing stock not only due to your endless stupidity You're greedy and inherently dishonest the greedy English the English made fools of themselves AGAIN your greasy tills and greed-inspired calculations We all know about you English folks... what's yours is yours and what belongs to someone else is yours also. just because they want more tv money for there own coffers just pathetic whinging throwing their toys out of the pram Typical bitter Anglo/French behaviour this boils down to financial greed Whinge whinge moan moan - typical English Pathetic The English and French leagues are full of mercenaries playing for big fat greedy pay cheques if ever there was proof of English whinging, this is surely it. whing, whinge, and more bloody whinge... shameful bullying the Arrogance of the these people knows no bounds its really pathetic trying to get there grubby little hands on every penny they can Unbelievable arrogance leaving them drown in the greed they so crave the destroyers of a great game in Europe I say sod the arrogant English it is just arrogance nothing more than pure greed greedy English Your arrogance is astounding the English money-grubbing nation of shop-keepers 800 years of crimes against humanity whining victimisation Just like the English The English are now toxic. endless greed and disregard for the law the centuries of crimes in your wake Posted 13:23 26th September 2012 Toulousain says... @crunchfit. you're kidding right? you try to have a go at APV1 for not responding when the open questions are at your door? we have answered your questions. there is no lack of logic in our position. i really can't spell it out in any more basic terms. i guess APV1 has just thrown in the towel. what is that english expression? "there's none blinder than those who won't see" hmmm. Posted 22:28 24th September 2012 crunchfit says... @APV1 Any response to my questions? If you don't want to answer, no problem. I just thought that you would seeing as this is the second time you made that point to me (i've just seen that old post in the Loose Pass story that you mentioned) so I assume you were interested enough in my response to read it. I'm just trying to see the logic behind English fans', such as yourself's, issues with the Pro12. They don't seem logical to me and when I point out flaws in your arguments in response to your comments, which just seem a little too obvious, I have yet to get a response or get answers to questions I ask. If your arguments are so convincing, why is there such a lack of response to the questions or pointing out of what seem to be obvious flaws in the logic of your arguments? Posted 17:55 24th September 2012 rugby_rockstar says... Hahahah! AWESOME!!!!! Northern Hemisphere rugby is the winner, almost! There's a risk that Italy will get sold down the river by a compromise that allows say 8 pro 12 teams to qualify. which is plain selfish but it will ensure celtic stars get the rest all rugby players need to stay fit and in form. Personally, I think the PRO12 are in a great position. They have a strong argument for resting players and so should stick to their guns and the onus should be on england and france to pull themselves up to the benchmark set by the likes of Leinster, Ulster and Munster. We should be improving the rugby, thats the primary goal that every rugby fans wants. England and France focus on the business side to the detriment of the rugby so the balance is blatently wrong. This whole eurocup PRL farce has been a public relations disarster for the english clubs. I'm English and I've just got utter contempt for them. Heads should roll. They want to act like businessmen then resign and take the consequenses of their incompetence like businessmen. How is this different to the incompetance shown by the RFU last year? Its not. PRL have messed up big time and their reputation is in tatters. Posted 12:20 21st September 2012 Toulousain says... @crunchfit - don't worry if you don't feel you want to reply. i am learning your non-responsive style from other pages, especially when you don't want to accept things!! Posted 10:42 21st September 2012 7ton says... OK we have the Edinburgh and Zebre cases but isn't it a bit petty to begrudge these 2 teams as we should want to see rugby expand in Scotland and Italy Posted 10:37 21st September 2012 Toulousain says... @crunchfit: You say "...resting players for a single game where they know they can't make the play-offs, for a much bigger game, in a bigger tournament means that teams in the Pro12 in general, not specifically Edinburgh, don't try?...." I think everyone can agree that simply because Edinburgh rested players, it doesn't follow that all Pro12 sides rest players, and/or don't care. Maybe some do. But not all. Fair point. What I find interesting is that you define the HCup as "a much bigger game, in a bigger tournament". That's the point. For most French teams, the HCup is not the "bigger game". T14 is the bigger game. We rest players for HCup games. We don't care much about losing to Celtic sides. It's not a big deal to us. Because we know we could beat them, if it was a level playing field. But it's not. So we don't try. Take a look at Biarritz last season if you need any example of how motivation and prioritisation affects the outcome of games. They knew from about mid-February they were doomed in T14. So they "focussed" on the Amlin. And they won the damn thing, beating sides like Toulon along the way!! Imagine if all French sides could "focus" on the HCup. It would at least make us worth beating. Posted 10:29 21st September 2012 porridge_time says... So what if Edinburgh rested players and focused on the HC last season. The professional game in Scotland consists of two teams and it needs entry into a European competition in order to grow. Both Edinburgh and Glasgow are gradually improving and who knows where they will be this season, but if the rich English clubs are appeased here then the professional game in Scotland and Italy will be sunk. This is about money and about English Clubs not winning the European Cup all the other stuff is subderfuge. Posted 02:16 21st September 2012 crunchfit says... @APV1 There's a difference between resting players a week prior to the Toulouse match, and completely abandoning the Pro12 (or something to that effect), as has been suggested recently. Besides, people point to Edinburgh as an example and suggest all teams abandon the league. So, people on your side of the argument think that resting players for a single game where they know they can't make the play-offs, for a much bigger game, in a bigger tournament means that teams in the Pro12 in general, not specifically Edinburgh, don't try? And you think that that demeans and devalues the competition? That doesn't really make sense to me. Sorry. If you're in two competitions, your fate is sealed in one, and you have a chance to win in the other, clearly you prioritise the latter. And prioritise is a bit of an exaggeration. It was really just resting players for a single game, not prioritising. Posted 23:37 20th September 2012 Sincero says... Cheers, porridge! APV, I'd actually agree with all of that. I sent in a query at the end of the season to a rugby program that airs in Ireland precisely on that topic. What Edinburgh did wasn't respectable, but they exploited the system. It's certainly part of the reason why we're having this debate now. (However I do see a fair bit of jealousy at the successes of the provinces as being the larger part of this being brought up) My suggested solution was to keep the 10 berths (to which I feel we're entitled as a European league representing 4 Unions, rather than a domestic league representing one- the two simply do not equate), but do away with automatic qualification for the Scots and Italians. All of the lower teams in the league are well capable of qualifying on merit, perhaps with the exception of Zebre, who have disappointed so far. It'd be fairer on 1/2-funded Connacht, and to also to degree on the fully-funded Dragons. Treviso deserve their European Cup place- they're no push over, and have taken a few scalps. Even Aironi managed that. But if you pluck Zebre now in the pool stages it throws the whole Cup out of whack. Far better to have a superior team there on merit, and allow Zebre time to grow in the Challenge. Plus the lower end of the league becomes far more competitive. And there would be no more taking the peas like Edinburgh did last year. Posted 16:18 20th September 2012 APV1 says... @ Sincero - as I posted on the Loose Pass thread and on other HC threads, Edinburgh, imo, had little respect for the Pro12 and decided to rest players: That's why people are suggesting that some teams don't try. Because they prioritise. I understand why, I just don't like it and think it demeans and devalues the competition. And, as a Bath fan, I too was disppointed with the result and (especially) the performance at the Rec (just see my comments). We have the talent, especially in the back 3, to play some fantastic rugby. Bendy's try proved that. But we're lacking a play-maker at 10 and Barkley's filling in. He's an ok 10, but not a Beaver (with his experience and rugby-vision) or a Heathcote (with his youthful flair and exuberance). @ 7ton - as you say, teams will always miss out unless every team plays every other team. But that's where the Amlin comes in. I think we're trying to get to a sensible place and I hope that the Unions, ERC, PRL, etc can get there too. My personal two bug-bears are automatic qualification for teams, regardless of their standard (e.g. Zebre) and teams which are almost encouraged to "do an Edinburgh". And, as I see it, that's what most French and English fans object to as well. A pan-Eropean salary cap wouldn't go amiss either, but I think that's a bit of a pipe dream, along with foreign player restrictions being unified. Posted 10:07 20th September 2012 porridge_time says... You know us English take these things very seriously. We all know about you English folks... what's yours is yours and what belongs to someone else is yours also. Sincero has hit the nail firmly on the head in his summary. Posted 07:55 20th September 2012 porridge_time says... Anybody else see a pattern emerging? Yes! Posted 05:44 20th September 2012 7ton says... APV1 Giving consideration to your suggestion that the top 6 teams from each league go into the HC it may well be that the 7th finisher in the Rabo could be on many occasions better than the 6th finishers in the AP or T14. Now that goes completely against your your view that the HC should be for the best teams in Europe only regardless whether all 6n countries are included or not. Who can ever say that all the top finishers in the AP or T14 are going to be better than the 7th or even 8th finisher of the Rabo? Even as the format is now an Irish or Welsh team missing out may claim they are better than the 6th placed AP/T14 team. The only way we could have it by your principle is if every team in Europe were to all play each other home and away. For obvious time and other factors this would not be possible unless we just have one big European league and forget the rest. In regards to making the Rabo more competitive one possibility may be to reduce the amount of Rabo teams that qualify from 10 to 8 or even 7 then have 1 team each from Italy and Scotland and 2 or even just 1 each from Ireland and Wales that have a guaranteed place and then let the rest fight it out. To make up the full HC numbers bring in more from the Amlin and/or include the runner up from the previous years HC. Another idea could be to reduce the amount of Auto qualifiers from the AP/T14 as well and have some sort of play off between the "just losers" of all 3 leagues but time may be a factor. There are many possibilities and I just hope that the powers that be can get there heads together and have a reasoned debate which does take into consideration the greater good of rugby Posted 21:37 19th September 2012 Sincero says... And what the bugger makes you think teams are hardly trying in the Pro 12? That's really very presumptuous of you, and also very much not the case. I watched Ulster host Munster at Ravenhill last weekend, and also watched Saints visit the Rec. I had a little combination bet on, you see? Now, without many of the internationals back, the pace, execution, the power and the passion of the game that was on show in Belfast would completely eclipse anything you have on show in England. Utter dross at the Rec. And then Leicester - Sarries the other day? The big teams? This is the mad thing- instead of thinking about why you can't produce rugby of any decent standard you immediately try to hamstring duplicitously your neighbours in an attempt to drag the game back to your level. It's really quite abhorrent. We've got our own problems with the game in Italy, Scotland and Wales, and your solution is to make the first two extinct and the last endangered? Instead of trying to murder the sport until nobody else is left, as per your tradition, why not give rugby up altogether and concentrate on something you love doing that nobody else can be bothered with? Enter a 'boring conversations about weather international championship', or a 'treating animals as if the are people cup'... or a 'general knowledge quiz on the Duchess of Cambridge's knickers'... something you're guaranteed to win as a nation. And leave the rugby alone, folks. Better for everyone. Posted 17:47 19th September 2012 Sincero says... TVaddict says... 'Leinster finishing in the top six is irrelevant when the teams they're playing against are hardly trying. That is one of the many points you seem unable to grasp. You are as diplomatic and intelligent as the people running the premiership!' I'm not trying to be diplomatic, mate. And clearly neither are you lot. What led you to call me unintelligent. A little ad hominem, no? I'm not trying to insult anyone, pal. I'm fairly confident in my level of intelligence too, so not offended, just puzzled. I'm not slagging you off. I specifically said I like your fans. It's just this kind of carry-on makes you... less popular, shall we say? '@ Sincero - therein lies the problem. When we were invited back in and offered a cup of tea, it was rubbish. It wasn't brewed correctly. The milk went in the cup first (an absolute No! No!). There was no lemon as an alternative. The list goes on.' Honestly wouldn't be surprised if it contained more saliva than tea after all that, though. So you're saying you think you should have seen a far higher % of the Sky money, or are you just extending the analogy? I must say, in the past you used to kick off after any success, but this time that's not the case. Your national team is trousers, your clubs can't hold their own at all, and your brand of rugby could be sold in D.I.Y. shops as a paint drying aid. Your position is laughably weak. So what now? A 'PREMIER EUROPEAN CHAMPIONSHIP OF THE WORLD AND UNIVERSE CUP' with teams just from England? I'll pay you 20 quid in advance now not to bother boring me with the details of who wins it.

Swimming improves vascular function, BP in older adults HealthDay News -- Regular swimming improved blood pressure (BP) and vascular function in older adults with early hypertension, study data indicate. "Swimming exercise elicits hypotensive effects and improvements in vascular function in previously sedentary older adults," Nantinee Nualim, PhD, of the University of Texas in Austin, and colleagues reported in the April 1 issue of the American Journal of Cardiology. Swimming is thought to be an ideal exercise for older adults due to the minimal weight-bearing stress and decreased heat load associated with the activity. But little data is available on potential vascular risks. click here to read more about the amazing benefits of swimming

Notes to Kant's Account of Reason 1. We might also note Kant's view of logical reasoning. In the Introduction to the Transcendental Dialectic, Kant distinguishes “logical” from “real” or “pure” uses of reason. The logical use of reason represents a “subordinate faculty” (A305/B362) of drawing inferences (syllogisms), and Kant says relatively little about it in the Critique. It is the “pure” use, whereby reason “itself contains the origin of certain concepts and principles” (A299/B355), that demands critique: hence, of course, the book's title. For extended discussion of this distinction, see Patrone 2008: Ch. 3. 2. This neglect is perhaps less surprising if we recall Kant's very disparaging remarks about attempts to answer the general question, “What is truth?” at B82/A58ff. 3. Cf. O'Neill 1984, which draws on Jean Piaget's studies of young children's knowledge of the world. When asked whether the number of beads will stay the same when they are spread out over a longer distance, for instance, children below a certain age will assume that the number of beads has increased. As O'Neill says, it is difficult to say just what the child believes in this case; in Kant's terms, his or her beliefs do not meet the formal conditions of truth. 4. Cf. also Kant's discussion in the Prolegomena: “The difference between truth and dream… is not decided through the quality of the representations that are referred to objects, for they are the same in both, but through their connection according to rules that determine the combination of representations in the concept of an object, and how far they can or cannot stand together in one experience.” (4:290) 5. It is easy to miss the role that others' judgments play when reading the first Critique, since Kant's concern is largely with the transcendental conditions of experience in general, and hence with an individual knower. However, as Gelfert 2006 has persuasively argued, testimony (and hence communication: cf sections 3.2 and 3.3 of the main entry) are fundamental to Kant's analysis of knowledge among actual human beings. For example, Kant's lectures on logic refer to 'the criterion of truth: to compare one's opinions with those of other people... The principle of indifference etc. to the judgments of others in comparison with my own is [by contrast] the principle of logical egoism' (24.2:740, as quoted/translated by Gelfert 2006: 644). See also Mikalsen 2010 for a recent application of these insights. 6. Cf. “the systematic unity of the understanding's cognitions… is the touchstone of truth of rules” (A647/B675); “it can never be permitted to ascribe such a faculty [i.e., freedom] to substances in the world itself, because then the connection of appearances necessarily determining one another in accordance with universal laws, which one calls nature, and with it the mark of empirical truth, which distinguishes experience from dreaming, would largely disappear” (A451/B479); “What is connected with a perception according to empirical laws, is actual” (A376). Cf. Bxli, A492/B520f. 7. Genesis, ch. 11—the literal meaning of “Babel” being “confusion.” 8. O'Neill 1989: Ch. 1 especially emphasises this passage, as well as the epigraph that Kant added to the second edition of the Critique from Francis Bacon's Great Instauration. Bacon deploys the same imagery of making trial, secure founding, planning, construction, modesty and limits that Kant now uses. 9. Kant often uses the disparaging verb “vernünfteln,” akin to “rationalise” (Vernunft being the German word for reason). 10. Cf. Kant's comment in the Prolegomena: “High towers and the metaphysically-great men who resemble them, around both of which there is usually so much wind, are not for me.” (4:373n) 11. Kant states this very clearly in “What Does it Mean to Orient Oneself in Thinking?”: “if reason will not subject itself to the laws it gives itself, it has to bow under the yoke of laws given by another; for without any law, nothing—not even nonsense—can play its game for long” (8:145). 12. “But who would even want to introduce a new principle of morality and, as it were, first invent it? Just as if, before him, the world had been ignorant of what duty is or in thoroughgoing error about it.” (Critique of Practical Reason, 5:8n) 13. Kant was already clear about this in the so-called “Prize essay,” an “Inquiry concerning the distinctness of the principles of natural theology and morality” (1764). He expands on the point in the first Critique's Doctrine of Method, in the section entitled, “The Discipline of Pure Reason”; cf. Bx ff. 14. Thus a number of writers have stressed the more modest, defensive idea of vindication at work in Kant: not a positive proof that permits no doubt, but a defence that address the specific worries of specific audiences. Cf. Ameriks 2003, or this passage from Łuków (1993, 221): “It is neither sufficient nor possible to prove law and freedom, but it is sufficient and possible to defend them by identifying the practical constraint which testifies to their instantiation in actual lives.” 15. Passages at A310/B358 and A316/B373 are very close to the central principle of legal order explored in the Doctrine of Right, the first part of the Metaphysics of Morals—but this is not yet the underlying idea of the Categorical Imperative. 16. Please see the note at the beginning of the bibliography for an explanation of these references to Kant's moral writings. 17. We might add a third reason. We also have an interest in the unity of philosophy, that might be frustrated if practical and theoretical reason did not stand in a definite hierarchy. Cf. Guyer 1989. 18. Of these ideas, we have already seen the special status of freedom in Kant's system (just as it had a somewhat anomalous position within the “Antinomies” of the first Critique). In fact, the postulates only appear after Kant thinks he has demonstrated the practical reality of freedom, which is known to us by the second Critique's famous (and, as we have seen, nearly as controversial) “fact of reason.” 19. Kant is not totally pessimistic about the results of good action—in his Lectures on Ethics, he comments, “if only all men together were unanimously willing to promote their happiness, we might make a paradise of Novaya Zemlya” (Collins, 27:285f). Novaya Zemlya is a Russian arctic archipelago—ironically enough, one later used as a nuclear test site. (My thanks to Jens Timmermann for this reference and information.) 20. A terminological note: Kant sometimes also refers to this as the highest “derived” good, as compared with God's existence as the highest “original” or “independent” good—5:125, 132; “What Does it Mean to Orient Oneself in Thinking?” 8:139. 21. One might also cite the fact that Kant links autonomy not only to practical but also theoretical reason: “the power to judge autonomously—that is, freely (according to principles of thought in general)—is called reason.” (Conflict of the Faculties, 7:27) 22. But the maxims are formulated much earlier, before the publication of the first Critique: see the unpublished notes R1486, 15:715f (1775-77) and R1508, 15:820, 822 (1780-84); they also appear in the Lectures on Logic, 9:57, as “general rules and conditions for avoiding error.” 23. Kant's words repay close reading: To think for oneself “is the maxim of reason that is never passive. The tendency [to passivity], hence to heteronomy of reason, is called prejudice; and the greatest prejudice of all is representing reason as if it were not subject to the rules of nature, i.e. superstition. Liberation from superstition is called enlightenment, since, although this term is also applied to liberation from prejudices in general, it is superstition above all… that deserves to be called a prejudice, since the blindness to which superstition leads… is what makes most evident the need to be led by others, hence the condition of a passive reason.” (5:294f) 24. “What Does it Mean to Orient Oneself in Thinking?” 8:144. Cf.: “…if this freedom [of the pen] is denied, we are deprived at the same time of a great means of testing the correctness of our own judgments, and we are exposed to error” (Anthropology, 7:129). Universal communicability is also central to Kant's account of aesthetic judgment, following his discussion of the three maxims in the third Critique (5:295-7). 25. For a rather different, but perhaps complementary, attempt to reconstruct key Kantian insights about reason, while preserving aspects of the instrumental and communitarian approaches, see Robert Brandom 2001 and 2002: Ch. 1.

Joe Martinek Rutgers 14 FB/RB College: After playing through injury in 2010, "Jersey Joe" will be making a move to fullback eerily similar to the one made by Rutgers Legend Brian Leonard his senior season. Truely a team team player. High School: Matinek is one of the more decorated high school players to ever come from the state of New Jersey. He was the 2006 Gatorade New Jersey State Player of the Year and finished his career as the all-time leader in New Jersey state history with 7,589 rushing yards and 80 touchdowns. Derek Moye Penn State 6 WR/RT Derek Moye already has established himself as one of the elite wideouts in Penn State's glorious gridiron history, but the former Rochester High School all-state star and state champion sprinter is poised for an even bigger season in the fall. A probable All-America candidate, Moye is coming off a superb junior season that saw him lead the Nittany Lions with 53 receptions for 885 yards and eight touchdowns. A Phil Steele's College Football Preview preseason first-team All-Big Ten selection, he hauled in a touchdown in seven of the last eight games, including the final five contests. Moye brings outstanding size, skills and speed to the offense. The crisp route runner and prolific leaper is a big-play threat on every snap. He was second in the Big Ten with a 16.7 yards per catch average, was fifth in the conference in receiving yardage (68.1 ypg) and tied for ninth in receptions last year. Moye also moved among the Penn State career leaders with 104 receptions (11th), 1,741 receiving yards (11th) and 15 touchdown receptions (5th tie). He needs 22 receptions and 266 yards to move into the Top 5 on both lists. A 2010 honorable-mention All-Big Ten selection, Moye's hard work in the off-season has him prepared for a huge senior season. He already has established himself as a player with the talent and toughness to be a game-changer. Moye opened the calendar year with a game-high five catches for 79 yards and a touchdown against Florida in the Outback Bowl on New Year's Day. A starter in every game for the past two seasons, Moye uses his size and speed to present matchup problems for opposing secondaries. A four-sport standout at Rochester HS, Moye won the 200 (:22.15) and 400-meter (:48.04) Class AA state titles at the 2007 Pennsylvania state track and field championships. A cousin, Rocky Washington, played for the Nittany Lions during the 2000s. Moye is on schedule to graduate in December. 2010.

We’re headed to the airport! Our morning began somberly at the Holocaust Museum, but the kids learned about what life was like in Nazi Germany and the importance of re-telling this story to future generations. Our last stop was the Lincoln Memorial. The kids were challenged to find the mistake! Once they found it, they showed their friends. Now we’re on our way to the airport and headed home!

Girl sees plant blooming in nursery and is amazed. Girl wants hibiscus. Years pass. Girl buys hardy hibiscus. For a lot of money. And is thrilled with late summer blooms. Girl doesn't have the perfectly-drained and sunny spot for said bush so she leaves it in the pot for the winter. (Because hardy hibiscus can survive minus 30F.) The winter is endless and cold. Very cold. Girl is dismayed at dead-looking stems in the spring. (What was she thinking?!) Girl hopes for a miraculous rejuvenation. Nothing happens. Girl begins to rehearse her story to get a replacement plant at her local nursery which only has a six-month replacement policy. Girl notices that the neighborhood roses-of-sharon are also dead-looking in spring. Maybe there's hope. Stems begin sprouting new growth. (June 9th? Miracles do happen.) Hibiscus gets a haircut. Inspired and relieved, girl digs up wisteria that hasn't bloomed since the fence fell on it years ago and puts in hardy hibiscus instead. Plant grows and flourishes. Buds form. Buds show color. Waiting is hard! First hibiscus blossom on August 27th. Smaller than a dinner plate, much larger than a salad plate. Girl shares her delight with family, neighbors, passing strangers who all Kharma investigates huge flower as possible alien invasion. "It's safe, Mom." "It's safe, Mom." August 29th. For some, this is memorable as the first day of school. Girl will always remember this side-by-side set of incredibly large blooms at the end of summer. Love the two-toned swirl and the bright green leaves. Amazed at how many blossoms it has. She's a winner! Giddily, This was the nicest of happy endings. And I'm happy to share at a very special party for all us gardeners: an end of the season gathering of favorites over at An Oregon Cottage. After sharing at these parties earlier this summer:

) cotangent inverse gives the angle of the cotangent with the contangent's value as its domain. use that and you can just draw a triangle and get A/H. I am still confused, not considering cosine yet, the problem is basically cot (x) = 3/4, right? Im not quite sure for exactly cotangents work, but the only solutions I know for tangent are fractions on the basic unit circle (1, (sqrt(3)/2)/(1/2), the opposite of that, and 0). Please forgive me if I completely off, I haven't taken trig anything in over 2 years which is part of my problem. it's asking for the cosine of the angle that makes cotangent 3/4. cotangent = A/O = 3/4.? ew trigonometry bleh I was wondering what arcsin was until I read Rayne's post.

The Ranger School is a location whereby individuals aspire to become either Rangers, Mechanics and Operators in training, featured in Shadows of Almia. Hidden in Ascension Square is a diary which was used by the three founding fathers of the Ranger Union: Erma, Professor Hastings and Lamont. OverviewEdit At the Ranger School, individuals are taught skills pertaining to the lives of Pokémon Rangers, in order to succeed as either a Ranger, a Mechanic or an Operator. It is here where Erma, Professor Hastings and Lamont vowed to bring peace to the Pokémon world, thus forging what would later become the institution of the Ranger Union. Lamont created the Ranger School to allow children to learn about the responsibilities of being a Pokémon Ranger. For demonstration purposes, the Ranger School implements a safer, less powerful variant of the Capture Styler called the School Styler. - Pokémon Ranger - A Pokémon Ranger's role is to uphold the peace within the Almia region and protect nature. Their role is pivotal in the day-to-day running of the Ranger Union. - Operator - These people are assigned to communicate directly with Pokémon Rangers in the field via voicemail, and can grant additional PokéAssists to Rangers who successfully complete a mission. Though the role of Operator is slightly subservient to the Ranger, it is a crucial aspect of the Ranger Union. - Mechanic - The Mechanic's role in the series is to repair machinery. Not much else about this class is known. TeachersEdit Within the Ranger School, there are a variety of teachers whom are capable of teaching students about the role of Pokémon Rangers in everyday life. The teachers present are as follows: - Mr. Lamont - The Headmaster of the Ranger School and its founder, Lamont is a person dedicated to the ideals of peace within the world. - Mr. Kincaid - Kincaid is a teacher at the Ranger School, who later reveals himself as a member of the sinister Team Dim Sun. - Ms. April - April is the teacher of the protagonist's classroom. - Ms. Claire - Claire is a teacher at the Ranger School, whose specialty lies in Target Clear. - Janice - Janice serves as the person who looks after the Ranger School. - Mr. Kaplan - Kaplan is a teacher at the Ranger School, who specialises in the teaching of Capturing Pokémon through the use of School Stylers. LocationsEdit FieldEdit This place is located in front of the Ranger School building. There are crates here, and some Pokémon roaming around the field. There is a classroom on the left side of the building. To the right is where Ascension Square is located. HallwayEdit Located in the first floor of the Ranger School, with two classrooms, a library, staircase and the Staff Room. Pichu and Bidoof are found here. Second FloorEdit This is the place to eat and where dormitories are located. Ascension SquareEdit This is where the Pledge Stone is located. There is a port on the east side. This is where Team Dim Sun's Cargo Ship will eventually crash here. BasementEdit This is where Mr. Kincaid's laboratory located. The location also has a Zubat blocking it so the player must find his/her own way. EntranceEdit It is found in front of the Field, to the west, it leads to School Road.

(C. "I don't know who made it," Greene told CNN. But that doesn't mean he isn't listening. "It sounds good," he said. "Make sure everybody hears it." It appears the video was created by a San Francisco hip-hop producer calling himself "Satellite High" and uploaded to YouTube by a user called "virgiltexas." Both men promoted the video on their Twitter feeds yesterday, with Satellite High proclaiming: "when i say 'alvin' you say 'dammit you people will believe anything.'" The producer did not immediately respond to an e-mail seeking comment. UPDATE: Jay Friedman, the San Francisco-based producer behind the song, is amused at the attention the video has gotten. The entire concept, he said, was developed among a group of friends "goofing off" on Twitter who had been following the Alvin Greene phenomenon. "I just like making funny music, and a friend of mine on Twitter approached me asking, 'You wanna do this'," Friedman said in phone conversation. "It was kind of inside jokey thing." Friedman said the song took about an hour to complete, with some extra time needed to convince his wife to perform back-up vocals. The video, which was posted on YouTube Thursday, was produced by his friend. He said he was taken aback when the video was billed as an "official" Greene campaign video. "When we were making it, we were trying to make sure there was enough comedy and parody in it so that people would be sure that it didnt come from the Alvin Greene campaign," Friedman said. "People are willing to believe very strange things when they come from the internet." It would be really funny if, after putting this D stooge in place, the R opponent loses. Nothing personal against Mr Greene, don't know much about the man What I have seen of him, has suggested that this man currently has no qualifications to in the US Senate Now the conspiracy theorist that suggest he might be a Republican funded plant, could scarily be correct. They go on to laugh at the Republicans for such an underhanded trick, as well laugh at the possibility that Demint is so corrupt, that Mr Greene might actually become the next Senator of S.C. Don't laugh too hard people, if your theories are correct, and a Democrat beats the Republican in S.C., who do you think Mr Greene is going to be loyal to If your theories are correct, what I see, is that the joke might just be on you ... two Republicans are running for the same seat Mr Greene might simply end up being a Republican in Democratic clothing ... sounds like the Democrats lose no matter what He will fit right in in Washington. His credentials will stand with the rest. Can anyone get this so called "Greene"out of the site. Remember out of the site out of the mind. He is just there and pretending he is something while he is not. No one knew Greene before, now he is talking while not showing that he is something. Please stop playing with peoples mind. We have more pressing issue to deal with than wasting our precious time in this empty suit Greene from no where! Even the bridge to no where, was known it was in Alaska! Why not vote for Alvin Greene??? He is as intelligent as any Gov. S.C. has ever had....I'd bet a whole lot more honest!!! The democrats must be so proud of their candidate.... This guy is the most decent, honest Democrat to run for office in the last 40 years. It is no wonder that the libs are attacking him, he isn't enough of a hater for the Democrat hate party. We need, at least, 50 % of people like Alvin Greene in US Congress. People who have struggled to pay rent, to pay telephone bill, to pay electrical bill, to go to restaurant, and so on. People who could afford vacation, to pay their credit card bill on time, or to have a decent car. For American people, it is more important than a good speech Therefore, Mr. Alvin Greene has my vote and my money. Also. I am not sure what people mean when they say that he is an idiot. How many people, in this country, with Mr. Alvin Greene conditions could manage to be a US Senator nominee in South Carolina? An idiot could not do it. I am not an idiot, bu I couldn't.. So, somewhere, he is very smart. Please, South Caroline, don't put this dumb in Senate. Turning Alvin Greene into a rappin candidate in South Carolina will virtually hand the election to Jim DeMint. All you liberal political thugs out there have been slamming this guy from the get go. I ,on the other hand, have defended his right as a winner of a free election. Of course you libs don't believe in free elections (Bush-Gore, Bush-Kerry). But back to the subject, this guy Greene is the brightest star I've seen in the democratic camp in a few years. I'll predict he will be a very popular representative and alot of talk show hosts will be eating crow. Mr. Greene should smile more. He has earned the right o smile. He has the Democrats scratching heir heads in dismay. I haven't heard anything about the "probe" into his primary election. If there was something found it wold have made the news. So Good Luck Mr. Greene. Heaven help us. This guy is a perfect example of a Democrat... The fine DNC should be overwhelmed with Pride! Good luck Sir... fantastic job in the primary... we are all behind you South Carolina is so screwed! A lying corporate apologist or gumby. Is this the best that the State can come up with? Pathetic. Mr. Greene will get my vote. He's better then DeMint. Has anyone ever figured out how Mr. Green came to win the primary in South Carolina? While he seems like a very pleasant and easy-going man, he doesn't strike me as someone prepared for this important position. Who was he running against? This story seems to have died in the media. In any event if his primary win is legitimate, I wish him all the luck in the world. He will need every ounce of it.

President Obama IS a Constituional scholar. I wonder what made the newly elected Teatards think they could challenge the constitutionality of Healthcare Reform when one of their very own felt that familiarity with the Constitution was an UNNECESSARY prerequisite for a Senator? Did they also think that the insertion of a Latina,and a gay Supreme Court Justice was just a "checkers" move on the President's part? As long as taxpayers are expected to pay for treatment for people who have no health insurance, we should be able to require everyone who is capable of purchasing health insurance to do so – just like uninsured motorist insurance! Of course, Tim Pawlenty's solution is for emergency rooms to turn patients away who cannot pay and have no insurance. That's the GOP health care plan and I suppose that's the "Death Panel" that they spoke of – just send them away to die in the street. Until then, taxpayers shouldn't have to pick up the tab for those who can afford health insurance but simply won't pay for it. President Obama IS a Constituional scholar. ================================================ HAhAHAHA!!!! RIGHT! And he thinks it is outdated and irrelevant, just as all Progressives think. The American people told him otherwise on Nov. 2nd. He's just too stupid to realize it. Amazing how arrogance and elitism blinds people to reality. This law will be ruled unconstitutional in 2011 or 2012 by a 5-4 vote. Get over it libtards. Mama, part of the solution is also making people work and give up watching Oprah. Here is the real deal, we are already paying for these people through the innumeralble entitlement programs that a fraught with waste and corruption and a lot of the cost is the liberal trial lawyer suing that Obama has refused to control. He also refused to allow the companies to sell across state lines and took out the doc tax, so it wasn't included in the original cost and could be added later. So as far as the eye can see we are paying for the failure of the NEA to educate our children because they want more Viagra, the greedy trial lawyers and the millions of drug using, Oprah watchers who don't want to work. So what does this do for me except raise my premiums which your president promised it would not do. So much for the tea bag agenda. All they have left is the goofy impeachment strategy. To the Nancy Pelosi hater: It is the republicans who want to remove those constitutional amendments that are not pro white. Arrogance is a multi millionaire like Mitch McConnell thinking he is speaking for main stream America. That also goes for the town drunk who will become speaker of the house in January. Why do we even need health insurance companies? Seems to me that they're just greedy middlemen who add nothing to the delivery of healthcare besides another level of burocracy. The more claims they deny, the more profit they make. They are the real death panels. If we had universal healthcare like the rest of the world, all of this would be a "mute" point. (I know it's moot, but ya gotta write so the teabaggers little pea brains can understand.) Have a nice day! To the guy laughing about the President being a constitutional scholar: I'm a progressive, and I believe firmly in the Constitution. All of it; not just the parts the teabaggers like. I believe in the separation of church and state. I believe in the 14th Amendment, too. What gave you the idea that progressives don't believe in the Constitution? As for the President being stupid, I'd like to see your degree from Harvard, or anywhere, for that matter. No, I don't mean your GED. I'll be glad to show you my Associate, Bachelors, and Masters. If you think progressives are lazy, I'll be glad to show you my job history for the past 45 years, including 3 1/2 years in the regular army during Vietnam. Your insults only show your ignorance, which is the lesson we all learned about teabaggers during this last election cycle. For a good close up look at arrogance, try a mirror. Nancy Pelosi, the wicked witch of the west, the DemocRAT gift that just keeps on giving President Obama IS a Constituional scholar. ================================================ HAhAHAHA!!!! RIGHT! And he thinks it is outdated and irrelevant, -------------------------------------------------– EXACTLY what has he done to violate the Constitution that would make you say that? Let me answer that for you: NOTHING. Your boys in Congress would've been ALL OVER THAT if he was in fact violating our sacred Constitution. Perhaps if you'd studied a little harder in school you wouldn't feel so threatened by intelligence. The RepubliCAN'Ts knew this – they just want to MAKE SOME NOISE!!! Everyone who voted for them because they thought the Health Care Reform was going to be repealed – WASTED A VOTE!!! There is a LOT more the RepubliCAN'Ts ARE NOT going to get – like those TAX CUTS for the RICH – the middle class will prevail in that too – RAISE the THRESHOLD – END TAX CUTS for those making over that threshold!!! Yes We Can!! The RepubliCAN'Ts put a lot of fear in voters and it will all surface over the next couple of days, months and years and most Americans are going to say – "WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED"?! President Obama – and I agree with Dominican Mama – is a very intelligent man and this is what make those people that live in those 'small pockets of America' ANGRY! This is T'sah – OUT of Campaign – N2 MOVING AMERICAN FORWARD with all of the Reforms THIS President achieved – President Barack Obama!!! Obama is a constitutional scholar and Bush graduated from Yale. I will judge them more by the destruction they have or are wreaking on our country. And the lies they told or are telling. Are we done with the DemoPublicanRebOcrats yet? I wonder how the rethugs are going to tell people who are already being helped by the healthcare reform bill that, oops, we don't like it but because we have health insurance and we have a lot of money that doesn't mean we want YOU to have it. At least the insurance part. RETHUGS ARE THE DEATH PANELS!! Typical republikan hypocritical system. I don't care what SCOTUS "normally" does. This is a gross deriliction of their sworn duties. Requiring any amoerican to purchase any product where there is no alternative behaviour is not in the spirit of Constitution, is not enumrated in the powers of Congress or the Executive for any reason in the Constitution. For the sake of our country this needs to be resolved as quickly as possible. Requiring Auto Insurance isn't the same thing–we can all choose to walk or ride a horse. The constitution is a lot like the bible. Open to all sorts of interpretation. Couldn't one argue that promoting the general welfare, as they say, could include requiring everyone to have health insurance so that we all don't wind up paying for all of the emergency room visits by the uninsured? Have a nice day! @ keepstufingthis Mama, part of the solution is also making people work and give up watching Oprah. -------------------------------------------------– I agree. Yet you'd have to also agree that as it stands (or stood) we (those of us that work for a living and have health insurance) had been paying all along through fees and higher premiums for those without insurance. Why would you want Obama, YOUR PRESIDENT TOO, to curb lawyers suing anybody? Isn't that an infringement on free American enterprise? Lawyers sue. That's what they do. And what the hell was that you said about the NEA not educating kids because they want more Viagra?!? You're rambling babe. I agree with you about getting people back to work and away from their meth labs on college campuses, and in the heartland of America. The influx of this drug primarily produced by White America is killing off the youth we have left. I agree with Dennis, the liability auto insurance requirement is completely different. Take a look at what the CBO says. Recent report shows that Prescription cost have already begun to climb. This is just the beginning. As base costs go up, insurance costs will have to follow, or there won't be an insurance industry, maybe this was the engame they had in mind anyway.

(C. – Follow the Ticker on Twitter: @PoliticalTicker Jackson, 47, checked out of the Mayo Clinic for the first time in early September, his office said, and the clinic had acknowledged Jackson was a patient in an August statement. He is the subject of several investigations, including. In an October recorded automated call made to constituents in October,." Rev. Jesse Jackson, his father and a well-known civil rights leader, made no comment when contacted by CNN. – CNN's Miriam Falco, Sean Nottingham, Deirdre Walsh, and Gregory Wallace contributed to this report Since he is a Democrat if there is any other issues he needs to be checked so he can do absolutely nothing on the government dime feel free. We used to this in the private sector and it was called a non-paying sabbatical (usually for non-profit work). If he needs mental health care he needs to step down and let the next union owned democrat take his place. Congratulations! He won his seat. Tell him we all have to learn to control our minds for the benefit of our health. I read Jackson is looking to cut a deal with the FBI, he resigns his position and doesn't face jail time. I think the Mayo clinic illness is more like buying time trying to figure out what to do. I'm a democrat but in my opinion Congressman Jackson needs to resign. If he is unstable, he can't really serve the people in his district properly. Time to "Man Up".

A recent presidential poll shows former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney still has a lot of work to do to win the support of women in Virginia. Enter Virginia’s “Women for Romney” – a newly formed group attempting to channel Fittingly the group held an event Thursday at a women’s boutique in a newly-built shopping mall in Hanover County — the predominantly Republican Richmond suburb where Romney is scheduled to stop Saturday as part of his bus tour of swing states leading up to the GOP convention in Tampa Florida Aug. 27. Del. Barbara Comstock, R-Fairfax, said women have lost more than 400,000 jobs since Barack Obama became president. “Obama isn’t working, and we need to make a change,’ she told a group of roughly two dozen women gathered at the Ruby Slipper Boutique. Roughly half of the attendees had some direct connection to the Hanover Republican Party or the campaigns of Romney and GOP U.S. Senate candidate George Allen, or Rep. Eric Cantor, R-7th. The group also heard from Jean Ann Bolling, wife of Lt. Gov. Bill Bollling, the 2013 gubernatorial candidate and chairman of Romney’s campaign in Virginia. “Women are going to be crucial to getting Mitt Romney elected,” she said. Right now, Republicans could use more of them. Romney trails Obama among women voters in Virginia 54-40 percent, according to a new Quinnipiac University/New York Times/CBS News poll released earlier this week. Overall the president holds a 49-45 edge over Romney. Previous polls indicate Romney fares better among white women in the commonwealth, and much of the appeal behind Thursday’s event was geared toward getting the suburban gathering to network with their friends and neighbors, make calls, and affix bumper stickers to their minivans. “The most important network is the YOU network,” said Tennessee Rep. Marsha Blackburn, who participated in the Virginia Women for Romney events, which featured an earlier stop in Charlottesville. The Obama campaign, meanwhile, has been running ads in the commonwealth and other swing states charging that a Romney presidency would mark a step backward for women in areas like reproductive rights and contraception. “The Obama campaign and those ads don’t speak for all Virginia women,” Jean Ann Bolling said. One middle-aged Mechanicsville woman in the store told the gathering that she has been called a racist for not supporting the president. She said she is not a racist and that when she is pushed on the issue, she responds by saying “I’m voting against the white half” of Obama, a reference to the president’s mother, who was white. The public officials at the event quickly tried to talk the woman out of engaging with others along that line of political argument, calling it a distraction from the real. Later, after being approached by reporters, and in the presence of a GOP staffer, the woman declined to give her name, saying of the remark, “I just say it as a joke.” To Susan Allen, Romney should appeal to women for the same reason he should appeal to men – the economy. Whether they are business CEO’s or homemakers concerned about their husband holding onto a job or their children being able to find one, the wife of the former governor and U.S. Senator said women “know that this country is not where it should be.” “The pulse on the ground is way different because of the economy,” she said.

PollTracker (PT) aggregates and averages all reputable public polls for a wide range of presidential, congressional, gubernatorial and state-level issue contests across the United States. PollTracker uses the LOESS “regression analysis” library to generate its averages. The LOESS analysis is a statistical formula that integrates more current data with past polls in order to point a line in the direction the numbers are heading. PT “averages” are the endpoint of that line. The regression analysis was customized and developed in consultation with Professor Franklin. Its function is to derive trends from scatterings of polls, represented by the curved lines, taking into account both the different poll numbers and their progression over time. Polltracker uses a process we call ‘segmenting’ to allow us to present data separated by large gaps of time on the same chart. Polltracker generates a ‘regression analysis’ – the smoothed, curvy lines on the graphs – for data sets with at least 10 data points and no gaps between data points of greater than 6 weeks. Gaps in the data of greater than six weeks are represented by a dotted line. Sets of continuous data with fewer than ten data points are calculated with a weighted mean average and represented by straight lines.

I’ve been working overtime like Diana Ross to get you reviews on the hottest albums out. Head on over to Popdose to see how I feel about two of this week’s major releases? I have given the Black Eyed Peas a lot of grief, but it’s not as though I’m the type of person that would completely close his mind to appreciating anything they put out. Actually, I saw them in concert earlier this year and I came away having enjoyed the energy and spectacle of it all, if not the music. So I listened to “The Beginning” with as open a mind as I could muster. It didn’t help. Meanwhile, I was practically salivating to get my hands on El DeBarge’s “Second Chance”. If I was to make a list of great underappreciated soul vocalists, El would chart pretty high. Come to think of it, maybe I should make a list like that. Anyway, I don’t know if anything is worth a 16-year wait (except maybe losing your virginity), but El’s album should definitely find a way into your collection.

Bunker 599 Cut In Two Amsterdam-based design office Rietveld Landscape has launched their latest project called Bunker 599 + 603. The project lays bare two secrets of the New Dutch Waterline (NDW), a military line of defense in use from 1815 until 1940 (precisely the period without any war in The Netherlands) protecting the cities of Muiden, Utrecht, Vreeswijk and Gorinchem by means of intentional flooding. The project, which Rietveld Landscape developed along with Atelier de Lyon, is part of a broader strategy to open up this historical landscape for recreational purposes. The seemingly indestructible bunker nr. 599 with monumental status was sliced open. “The design thereby opens up the minuscule interior of one of NDW’s 700 bunkers, the insides of which are normally cut off from view completely. A long wooden boardwalk cuts through the extremely heavy construction and leads visitors to a flooded area and to the footpaths of the adjacent natural reserve.” The landscaping project is a great contribution to the understanding of this landscape and the tangibility of history. The project plays with the historical tragedy of the Dutch military defense ideas. The plan to create this defense line was ambitious and brilliant. It used the geographical condition of the Dutch landscape and its water learning from the Dutch Independence War (1568-1648) and Napoleon’s bloody defeat at Russia’s Dnjepr (1812). On the other hand, it was brilliance in the wrong period in history: in 1940, the Dutch were prepared for a guerrilla war… on skates. The Germans came with airplanes to bomb Rotterdam and drop paratroopers behind the front line. The New Dutch Waterline therefore has never been properly used. Post Comment

Brooklyns Aladdin Theater hosts Japan earthquake-relief concert $215,000 RAISED For two special shows on March 27, Brooklyn's Aladdin Theater was packed - standing-room-only - as people flocked to enjoy a most eclectic mix of music acts at the 'From Oregon with Love' concert. Having sold out the evening concert just hours after it was announced, organizers added a second show earlier the same day - both of them to raise money for Mercy Corps Oregon's Japan Relief Fund, in aid of Japanese victims of the recent massive earthquake there. Acts ranging from the internationally-popular show band Pink Martini, to the Oregon Ballet Theater, to singer Storm Large, didn't disappoint ticketholders - providing a colorful, memorable musical program. Near the beginning of the second show, at the theater located just south of Powell Boulevard on S.E. Milwaukie Avenue, the audience cheered when the master of ceremonies introduced Oregon Gov. John Kitzhaber, who had stopped by to speak for a few moments. Kitzhaber began by thanking the event's organizers, and recognizing dignitaries in the audience, including Japan's Consul General. 'Let me start by saying, first and foremost, that Cylvia [Hayes] and I, on behalf of all Oregonians, send our hearts out to the people of Japan; our friends across the Pacific who've lost their homes, lost their communities, and lost their loved ones. 'The level of destruction has been so great that no nation could possibly meet all the needs of their own people in the aftermath of an event of the magnitude that we witnessed several weeks ago. That's why we're here.' From the historical perspective, Kitzhaber observed that the Japanese-American Society of Oregon was started here in 1907. 'Oregon and Japan have a long history of a mutually-beneficial relationship. Many Oregon businesses trade products and services in Japanese markets.' The governor concluded, 'With events like the concert in this auditorium tonight, we're going to continue to gather the resources necessary to provide help to the affected communities which so desperately need it. Thank you so much for coming. Thank you for helping this important cause. Oregonians are generous people; very generous people. Our friends at Japan have asked for help, and we will answer the call.' Asked why he donated the use of the venue, lights, and sound, for the concert, Aladdin Theater manager Tom Sessa said, 'It's our way of giving back to the community.' With that, the concert began. The two benefit concerts at the Aladdin that day raised $215,000 for the assistance of Japanese earthquake victims.

Scene: Dropping Little Bit off at daycare DH says, "Son, you need to leave your toys in the car. (points to front door of daycare) Miss Donna* put up a sign that says everyone has to leave their toys at home." Little Bit considers this. "Let's pretend it says 'yes'!" DH quickly says, "OK. Then we'll pretend we took the toys inside." Little Bit considers this...hrmmmm...then, he leaves his toys in the car. *We live in the South, ya'll. All the daycare teachers are addressed as Miss Donna, Miss Kate, etc. Little Bit is also taught to say "Yes, ma'am" or "Yes, sir" as appropriate. --------------------- I'm way behind on reading/commenting on the usual blogs I read, and of course I haven't posted much lately. There's only so much "free" time in the day; lately I've been reading personal finance blogs and getting lots of good ideas about being frugal and tricks to keep on budget, and so on. Either that or trying to catch up on the DVR'ed shows recorded while we watch the evening cartoons with Little Bit. Little Bit is staying up later than he probably should. We let him watch his favorite cartoons on Noggin, which end at 8pm. By the time we get him to sleep, it can be past 8:30pm. That doesn't leave much evening. Last night we actually got him into bed and asleep by 7:30pm. He had quite a day though. He woke up feeling out of sorts, wanting to gather all his toys and things around himself on the couch. He really didn't want to go to daycare; he seemed like he might have a bit of a bug. So, he got to stay home with DH for some extra attention. When he felt better in the afternoon, they played outside for awhile. Unfortunately, Little Bit got really overheated very quickly. He has my fair skin, but he also has a high normal body temperature, and his face broke out in a heat rash. This morning, Little Bit broke my heart protesting getting dressed to go to daycare. He kept crying for me to come hold him, while DH tried to put on a fresh pull-up. Little Bit yelled, "No pull-up! I baby!" :-( It broke my heart. He's been feeling insecure I think. I would imagine it's rough trying to dance along that line between wanting to get out and explore and wanting to be held close and safe by mom and dad. In another 10 years or so, we'll get to go through his puberty. Wheeeeee. DH and I are thinking about taking Little Bit out of daycare part-time. That way he can get more one-on-one attention from his dad. Socialization is good, but he's only almost three. He's just a little feller. Friday, April 24, 2009 He's just a little feller Scene: Dropping Little Bit off at daycare 1 comment: As a follow-up: we talked to the daycare folks, getting their advice on how best to give Little Bit what he needs. After all, they've raised thousands of kids, and we value their opinions (even though ultimately we make the choices about what to do with our own child). We considered leaving things as they are (5 days of full-time daycare); going to a 3- or 2-day schedule of daycare (home the other days); going to a half-day schedule; or pulling him from daycare. Starting on Monday we'll be switching Little Bit to half-days at daycare, 5 days a week. That way he will continue to get the socialization and learning that they can give him; he'll get a regular schedule that isn't changing so much he can't keep track of it; and he'll get a whole afternoon of one-on-one Daddy Time, five days a week. Hopefully it will be the best of both worlds, and give him what he needs. We're planning to do this at least through the summer, or until I get full time work again, whichever comes first. The neighborhood park is just 3 blocks away, with wonderful swing sets, slides, and such. And in a few weeks the pool will be open. I'll be able to teach him to swim. (Yes, I'm trained to do that.) It should be a glorious summer, lots of good memories for us both, and hopefully less stress and more reassurance in Little Bit's life. We'll see. Wish us luck. :-)

Part on-screen adaptation of Stephanie Meyer’s book series puts a twist on the massively conflicted romantic drama commonly found in vampire movies, blending lovesick teens with fast-paced plot development into a very uncommon package. The result is an intoxicatingly addictive series of cinematic adventures that has taken the world by storm, bringing in a combined total of more than $240 million on their opening weekends. Let’s take a stab at some of my personal favorite vampire flicks, shall we? Bram Stoker’s Dracula This adaptation of Bram Stoker’s 1897 novel by Francis Ford Coppola is a fantastic piece of excess in every way. While favoring a more vindictive Count Dracula instead of the novel’s bloodthirsty version, Coppola’s approach remains deliciously gritty. This classic, but timeless take on vampire lore features a star studded cast including Anthony Hopkins, Winona Ryder, Gary Oldman, Tom Waits, Monica Bellucci and Keanu Reeves. Bringing in nearly $90 million in total gross sales at the box office, Bram Stoker’s Dracula is the number seven highest-grossing vampire movie since 1978 and won three Academy Awards. Fantastic acting coupled with incredibly engaging storytelling makes this one of my all-time vampire favorites. The Blade Trilogy Easily one of my favorites growing up, the Blade series is one of the better on-screen adaptions to come from the Marvel Comics camp. Wesley Snipes plays an ass kicking, daylight walking vampire-human hybrid who, to quote the movie, “… has all their strengths but none of their weaknesses.” All three movies are a fantastically endless cavalcade of excessively gory fight scenes and not much else, but it’s not like you notice or care. I found myself sad at the end of each, as watching Snipes brutally slice and shoot anything not quite alive in his path was incredibly entrancing. Ryan Reynolds and Jessica Biel join Snipes in the final installment of the series, bringing with them plenty of cool gadgetry and eloquent sarcasm which contrasts nicely with Blades’ quiet and completely unfunny demeanor. The trilogy comes in the top 20 top grossing vampire movies since 1978 at roughly $250 million total gross. This movie is everything you want in a vampire action movie: cool gear, good soundtrack and gratuitous amounts of gore. The Lost Boys Aw yeah, you know you loved it too. Even though it came out before I was born, this was another favorite of mine growing up. A veritable pop culture phenomenon, even though it only squeaked out $32 million in total gross box office sales, The Lost Boys was an instant cult classic. Recognizing that internal strife between small groups of people makes for great drama, director Joel Schumacher shows a pair of brothers being unwillingly dragged into one increasingly tense and dangerously cool situation after another. Fantastic marketing, great music and superb acting had teens across the country thinking that all you needed to be cool was a pair of Wayfarer sunglasses and a rebel attitude. What are your favorite vampire movies? Did you see these movies in the theater? Feel free to share your comments and experiences in the comment section below!

Well, I have to say, I was very pleased with this product. Been meaning to try it for ages, but I make my own tooth powders and pastes and, well, why would I need to? I had traipsed on over to David Wolfe’s place for an order (excellent customer service, by the way) and decided to give it a try. Good stuff. Anyway, I will definitely be trying to formulate my own Joyous Gum Oil I have most of the ingredients. For now, this is a really great product. Instructions direct to use “6 drops” on your toothbrush; however, I don’t think that much is even necessary. It is not “oily” feeling in the mouth; but whatever gets around the outside of your mouth and lip area is No prob, though, really. Teeth felt very clean, non-oily, and, wow, fresh breath! Not that mine is all THAT bad Lol. But really *really* effective! They found a great combination of essential oils and in perfect amounts. Wonderful. Now, hopefully, I can duplicate it! AND breath stayed fresh…which is not common. Alot of mouthwashes, for example, smell good for 10 minutes then it’s back to halitosis dominosis! This is like a tooth cleaner and mouthwash in one. Probably since bad breath comes from the stomach too. And, of course, in between teeth! Flossing, is a *must.* For flossing, this is the one I use most often, Eco-Dent’s: Another good one I find in stores is JASON’S Vege-Wax Floss; but it’s not on their site for some reason! It may be discontinued…too bad, really, it’s a top product. It’s compact; so this one, I keep in my car, lol. Vege-Wax Floss, Vegan, by JASON Also good is Dessert Essence, which has some other good, vegan products (but *always* read labels!): Dental Floss, Tea Tree Oil, Vegan, by Desert Essence Strix

Huckabee's Evolution Beliefs Republican presidential candidates Mike Huckabee, Sam Brownback, and Tom Tancredo raised their hands during Thursday's debate when asked if they don't believe in evolution: Huckabee, in a conference call with reporters the morning after the debate, explained how he would have responded if given a chance to elaborate on the question: "If you want to believe that you and your family came from apes, that's fine. I'll accept that," he said Friday. "I just don't happen to think that I did."Huckabee's views about his faith are sincere. Prior to his political career Huckabee was pastor of several Southern Baptist churches. He also served as president of the Arkansas Baptist State Convention. As for what should be taught in public schools, Huckabee said he wants "schools to acknowledge that there are views that are different than evolution." Huckabee downplayed the role evolution should have in the election. "Is a president going to sit in the Oval Office and really make a decision on what's being taught in a third-grade class in Dubuque, Iowa, on creation or evolution?" he said. "The answer is no." 93 comments: yeah we just magically appeared on the face of the earth by the power of an invisible guy in the sky :D I wonder can you trust such an ingorant guy like this to be the next president of the United States? Anyway Ron Paul is the real deal. He is the only constitutionalist, founding fathers style candidate. We just appeared magically on the face of the earth? Do you not find the irony in your comment? Which takes more faith, the belief that God created us or that the earth "Magically" appeared and we happened to evolve over millions of years from non-living organisms? In the end we will all find out who is right and who is wrong. I win either way. You on the other hand, do not. I wish you and your eternal salvation the best. And what about the Easter Bunny? People who have their heads up their ass and have not bothered to read any science are quick to paint evolutionary theory as'magical' but please take a look at dogs. Humans bred them for certain shapes and forms. Evolution does the same thing to all species, only not so fast and not so end-minded As to my 'Salvation', it is your devil: You go to hell Using dog breeding as an example of evolution is laughable. Breeding removes certain genes, it does not add them. You could never breed a great Dane from a chihuahua. Dog breeds came from a genetically varied common ancestor dog, probably akin to a heinz-57. Evolution presupposes the addition of genetic information. Adaptation has always been the loss of genetic information. As to salvation: Jesus Christ is the Way the Truth and the Life. Nobody goes to heaven but by Him. (paraphrase of John 14:6) i am dyslexic and pray to dog. dog breed is a valuable analogy to evolution. bacterial reproduction with a genetic change for survival with every million divisions would answer the genetic variability. About great danes and chihuahuas look at cock a poos. THey are tiny if mom is a micro poodle or almost cocker sized if mom is a cocker. It all follows the same rules from viruses to whales. I suggest those who think evolution is only a theory could jump off a building since gravity too is only a theory requiring a similar leap of faith. Faith is self fulfilling prophesy. Michael, you don't anything about evolution. Dog breeding is an example of selection for new genes. Darwin used the example of pigeon breeding to explain selection and then natural selection. You should read the Origin of Species so you can be better informed about the discussion is all about. I’m a life long Evolution supporter and frankly, believe that the debate between Creation and Evolution is about as useful as debating chocolate cake v. tennis balls. But since the war will be waged, I must caution my science-minded brethren of the risk of using dog breeding in their defense. Breeding necessitates the presence of a Breeder, which if I were a Creationist, would use to fuel my argument. Thankfully, I am not. I find the fact that any serious presidential candidate would not accept evolution as science appalling. Either the politician does not understand science or is not courageous enough to deal with the massive ignorance that is out there. If you have any doubts, take a look at the Dover decision, As to visualizing how it works, I think the most amazing display is the evolution of horses at the Museum of Natural History in New York. The reason why acceptance of evolution is important is a good test for Presidential candidates is also simple. If you don't betlieve in it, what other basic science don't you accept? Personally, I do not understand why people find evolution incompatible with religion. As the Catholic Shcurch's International Theological Commission wrote in 2002 "[A]ccording to the Catholic understanding of divine causality," the commission wrote, "true contingency in the created order is not incompatible with a purposeful divine providence." Hickabee believes dinosaurs and humans roamed the earth together just 6,000 years ago. If this is the sort of half-wit that is given serious consideration for public office we're all going to need divine intervention to survive. God Created Evolution. I salute Mike Huckabee for having the courage to take a stand against you pagan evolutionists. Where were you 5 billion years ago or even 6000 thousand years ago? God designed and created all things and loves all you ignorant humans who think you have all the answers with your pseudo-science. You pseudo-scientists change your mind every time the wind blows. You can't reproduce what God through Jesus has done and you can't accurately explain much of it either! Wooh. This Jim guy is a nutcase. Evolution is backed by science and universally accepted by the science community. Creationism, isn't. Why, because you cannot apply the scientific method for it. It is merely pieces of information take from various data to try to make their model fit. Oh, and as for Jim. Prove it. Minus your book of fairy tales. I believe that Huckabee is an ape. If having faith in God makes me a nutcase then so be it. I have a BS in Biology from a major university in this country. Universally accepted is a bit strong. There are plenty of scientists out there that share my world view that acknowledges the Creator God and still hold that evolution is an unproven theory. Not all of them are going to speak out because they want to keep their jobs. As for you, truth, I feel sorry for any one that feels that the Holy Scriptures is a book of fairy tales. Also, you and your beloved scientific community whom you apparently worship haven't proven much either. Huckabee has my vote if he wins the nomination. Jim said:"I have a BS in Biology from a major university in this country" Sure you do Jim. Let me guess, Bob Jones University. Perhaps "universally accepted" is a bit strong. How about "planetarally accepted"? How you can do biology and not accept the single unifying priciple of that science is beyond me. No it's not Bob Jones. It happens to be from a large State supported University. It's a mute point as to what planet I'm from. Evolution is still a theory. I think for myself. Study history a little bit. Human beings are routinely wrong and in large numbers. I can see no fault with the scientific method as I remember it. The problem is that you have imperfect humans that are applying it. As for the Holy Scriptures, they are inspired by God and do not contradict themselves. It's our feeble attempts at times to understand all the wonderful things that God has done that is contradictory. I believe God loves all of us and has great patience with us even though we disagree. It's stubborn and intolerant people like the BOTH of you which paralyzes any real progress in this country. I bet there's more that you two could agree on that you think. Why can't people just agree to disagree and move on. ...That's a rhetorical question. The difference between "evolutionists" and "creationists" (or "intelligent-designists" or whatever) is that the creationists already know the answer: to quote a bumper sticker, "God said it and I believe it and that settles it." Evolutionists have a much harder job - every piece of evidence (fossil, biological, whatever) is a potential challenge to the theory of evolution. The evidence that organisms evolve is pretty compelling - antibiotic-resistant bacteria are available anytime for a debate! The evidence that humans evolved from "lower" life forms is also pretty substantial, but surely has lots of surprises left for us. Evolutionists are often accused of being closed-minded for not allowing "alternative explanations" into the classroom, but nothing could be more closed-minded than mandating the answer at the start and trying to adjust all information to fit that view. And that's just not science. So to me, the main difference between evolutionists and creationists is that the former are continually looking to refine their understanding, while the latter are continually looking to validate theirs. Having spent 7 years being led by someone who knew the answers without (or in spite of) any supporting information, I'm sure not eager to continue that trend. So Mike, go ahead and lead a flock of your faithful; Baptist minister is the perfect job! But we need more critical thinking from the leader of our nation. Hey anonymous. You are probably right. There is probably a lot we do agree on. I'm sure you all are pretty good folks and love our country. What do you mean by real progress? I'm with Rush, I think we have had great progress. This is still the greatest nation that has ever existed because of our love of freedom and liberty which originated with God's Law. I would like that everyone who does not believe in evolution gets last years flue shots. The virus can't evolve, so what's the point to update the vaccine? In my humble opinion, I believe God placed all the genetic material that a certain group of animals could ever possibly exhibit. I like to think of it like programing a computer because isn't genetic material basically information? It makes sense to me that HE equipped viruses with the ability to survive just like HE created in us the ability in our bodies to defend ourselves against them. I challenge all of you out there to read Genesis 1:29, Leviticus 11and Deuteronomy 14 in the Old Testament and then try that diet. I think you will find you get viral and bacterial infections less often and when you do, your immune system will be stronger to fight off the infection. GOD loves all of you out there and does not want you to be sick! Before anyone responds, I would like to point out that I am not a medical doctor and what I have written is therefore not intended as medical advice. My family and I do our best to follow it and it works for us. I do want to say this as well. I'm sorry if I came across a little bent when I first entered this little debate and I hope I did not alienate anyone. I try my best to be a sincere Christian who truely loves his neighbor. If I saw you on the street and it was obvious you needed help, I'm not going to ask you if you what your party affiliation is or what you think about evolution. I would just help you. I think what troubles us Christian Conservatives the most is the lack of acknowledgement of our Creator. This Separation of Church and State stuff has gone way too far. God has blessed our nation so much. Why would we turn our back on Him? Walk around DC and inside our federal government buildings and you see acknowledgement of GOD all over the place. It is blatantly obvious to me that the Founding Fathers were believers in God. But yet when I go to a Natural Science museum, I am supposed to tell my precious children that it all happened by chance and that is the only option I am supposed to give them? This is probably one of the biggest reasons homeschooling is growing. I'm sure most homeschoolers teach their kids both options. There needs to be more choice out there as far as education is concerned. We have competition in just about everything else. I've got to admit, I have struggled at times to understand how the science I learned in high school and college fits with what I have learned about the Bible. The result has been I think a stronger faith in God and I believe I have found answers that are as close to being correct as anyone else has come up with. For example, I believe that after the first sentence in the Bible a large expanse of time probably did happen. The account in Genesis may just be describing a re-creation of the earth after an earlier calamity during which the dinosaurs and so called "neanderthal man" were destroyed. If this is true, Noah would not have had to worry about getting dinosaurs on the ark. At some point in the ancient past the devil did rebel because evil was already present in the garden. Hey Jim, What should I tell your Hindu brothers or your Budist brothers or your Islamic brothers? Are their stories of creation any less valid then our Christain stories? Is their US citizenship in this great country any less valid then yours or mine? ChurchState is there for a reason. Even within the Christain faiths there is large diversity of beliefs. ChurchState is there so that for example the Catholics cannot impose their views on the Protestent denominations. I would think our founding fathers would agree with that. Hello Annonymous. I actually agree with you. I hear what you are saying. May be all my brothers' stories need to be heard including the Catholic way of thinking. Isn't this what education is all about? I've got the sense to realize that most of our spiritual teaching should come from home and church. My point is that evolution and big bang in the way they are taught (at least to me that is) seem to make no room for GOD at all. This is the difference I see when I walk around Washington and read all the wonderful inscriptions acknowledging GOD and then I go to a Natural Science museum and the idea of a Creator is no where to be found. I think things have gotten a little out of balance. I believe that there are probably thousands of good Christian Public school teachers who are showing the love of Christ to their students and I think that's wonderful. I think its a little silly when it they feel like its "taboo" to share their personal opinion with their students that they believe GOD created it all. I don't mean that the teacher should necessarily start giving the students a bible study. Calamity during which the dinosaurs and so called "neanderthal man" were destroyed ?? Wow. So you believe in Cretaceous neanderthals, mister biology degree from a major university ??? The thing about science is it has to work no matter which sky-fairy you believe in. Evolution works in the Hindu population as much as it does in evangelical christians. So does gravity and strong nuclear force even though those are also just "theories". Only the laziest scientist would ever appeal to the "Quetzalcoatl did it" argument. Ok, you've successfully nitpiked me. Good for you. Calamity, extinction, whatever... same result gone. You evolutionists love to preach that these "so called" pre-humans are the ancestors of Homo Sapiens but you really have no proof that they are no more than just extinct apes. As far as my BS in Biology, I've never really needed it. Due to God's grace and blessing I started my own company and became financially independent by the time I was 31. To address your comment Doc., gravity and nuclear forces are believable because they are proven. Your system of religion that you apparently worship which includes evolution has not been proven and is quite controversial. I have no problem with Science that is true. Pardon me. Nitpicked. Still not sure if that's how you spell it but I promise you they still gave me that BS in Biology back in '91. Any nutcase can memorize some facts mingled with a little nonsense and spit it back on a test. I try to use my brain for ideas not just a warehouse for facts. My wife did get a good laugh about my Neanderthal mistake. She said I should have asked my 7 year old son. By the way, where are you Christians out there? I thought someone would have helped me out with a few thoughts by now. Whether you believe in God or not is irrelevant. Evolution is fact, not theory. If we elect a president who is this stupid, we are in serious trouble. Evolution is not a fact. Science itself says that a cell can't spontaneously form. This issue shows for sure that Huckabee is a crazy fringe candidate that shouldn't be President. Any man that thinks the Earth was created 6000 years ago shouldn't be given the time of day in Presidential politics. Do we really want this man to become President? Doesn't the US already have a bad name as it is in the field of science and we're going to compound the problem by having this guy represent us? I don't think so. I can't in good conscious vote for a man who's crazy enough to think that dinosaurs fossils are some sort of conspiracy by paleontologists. It seems the only candidate with any common sense is Ron Paul. This is hardly the forum to debate the theory of evolution - there are plenty of resources out there for the intellectually inquisitive, and any thinking person can judge for themselves which arguments make more sense. Nor does arguing from authority make much of an impact - no creationist will ever be swayed by what a majority of scientists say, just as no evolutionist will give any more creedence to someon just because they have a degree in biology (and if he had a degree from Harvard, would that make any difference?). For what it's worth, I think this link has the best evidence against Huckabee's claim that he is not descended from an ape: After what I heard Rush Limbaugh say on the radio today, I think I have changed my mind about Huckabee. I got excited about Huckabee because of what his web site says. I was not aware of his record as Governor of Arkansas. I'm too busy too sit around watching news programs all the time. He may be okay as a Vice President though. Sorry Jim. Scientists dispute the theory of evolution just about as much as they dispute the idea that we live in a heliocentric solar system. Too bad christian fundamentalists never seem to learn from their mistakes. Evolution can be repeatedly proven on the microbial level, and it is widely supported by conclusive evidence regarding macro-organisms, yet evangelicals continue to attack it as if it actually has an affect on their religion. I wonder why you seem to crave reinforcement of your religious beliefs from irrelevant areas of society such as science, politics, and a supposedly secular education system. You attack Dr. Steve because his "system of religion... evolution has not been proven", but what about your own system of religion? How much proof can you offer for it? With regards to your "founding fathers" comment, there seems to be an inconsistency with your argument: our founding fathers felt so strongly about the issue that they wanted to ensure that this country was founded with a clearly defined separation of church and state, in spite of their predominantly christian religious beliefs. Perhaps this was because they studied European history and realized what a mess can be made when religion gets intermingled with politics. So I am curious... why do you feel the need to impose your own religious beliefs on others, through supposedly secular systems (ie: the public education system), especially when doing so is detrimental to science in this country? Sorry up front for the long post. I can't believe I actually read through all this but I did want to see what Huckabee actually said. Why can't there be a middle ground? The idea of a "Creator" and the "fact" of evolution are not mutually exclusive. I have no issue with believing that a "higher being" brought the universe into being. Depending on where, when and to whom you were born, that "higher being" has a lot of different names. The "higher being" could certainly have designed a system that we now see as evolution - a system that allowed living forms to evolve into the different life forms that we see on the planet now. I have a lot more faith that the record of life we see in the ground (fossils) and the virtually infinite varieties of life we see around us are the result of a system that is evolving as opposed to the view that a "creator" created every single life form on the planet in it's exact current form. I know there are fundamentalists on both sides of this. Yes, the Earth could have been "created" in six days about 6,000 years ago (although it begs the question why the "creator" would have placed fossils in the ground and allowed us to "discover" radio-carbon dating to measure their age). And yes, the universe may have appeared from no-where billions of years ago with the ingredients for life (although it begs the question about how the "no-where" came into being). The reality is that there is a huge number of people in the middle ground who don't hold either fundamentalist belief. And a huge number of people who don't understand why the Democrats and Republicans can't seem to figure out that they are alienating the vast middle ground of America with their polarizing politics. The best thing that could happen in the United States politically is for certain very wealthy and philanthropic individuals (Buffett and Gates come to mind) to take some of their dollars and use them to build the framework of a third (centrist) political party. Remove the extremists on both sides from their position of influencing the politics of the parties and tearing apart the country. Get back to government for the people - ALL the people. And yes, it matters what Huckabee thinks. He could become our president and sets direction for the country. It matters whether he has an open attitude toward science or will dismiss it due to his belief system. It's disingenious for Huckabee to state that his personal beliefs are not relevant in the election - how many of his supporters would still be following him if he converted to become a (gasp) Mormon? iF THE ONLY WAY TO GET INTO HEAVEN IS TO BELIEVE THAT JESUS IS YOUR SAVIOR, THEN WHO OR WHAT POPULATED HEAVEN BEFORE JESUS? Creationism means that you say, "I can't possibly believe that the complexity of life on the Earth could have come about on its own! I believe that it had to have been designed by some infinitely MORE complex Creator, who himself came about on his own!" I'll preface by saying I only found this blog, looking for the ridiculous quote from Huckabee... I'm certainly a proponent of evolutionary theory, by default. In fact, creationism, historically speaking, is merely a reaction to evolutionary theory. A bit of research on its origins will tell you that. And it must be noted that evolutionary theory says nothing about the origins of the universe, and yet so many of its critics bring that up. Anyway, I really wrote an adequate response to someone on the other side of the argument (a staunch evolutionist) back in 2005. As I really don't have the space, or inclination, to properly discuss the subject here, I'll point you to my response: This point is an important one and I wish people would stop misinterpreting both sides of the equation. Hey Bio Major. Learn to read. I was responding to my God being referred to as a "sky fairy". I think I was the one attacked. As far as proof, the creation speaks for itself and I worship the Creator not the creation. I admit I don't have all the answers but neither do you. How do you figure I'm trying to impose my beliefs on you? I think it is the other way around. This is why homeschooling is growing. We don't want anything to do with your secular system. Faith is what's right with this country. Any world view that does not acknowledge God is what's wrong with it. I would not want to force you to believe or dis-believe anything. What good would that do? As far as mistakes, look at the mistakes you liberals have made. Your world view just simply does not work, not even in a billion years. Merry Christmas!!! Jim, I want to apologize for my earlier post. It came out as immature and inappropriate. I did not mean for it to come across as an attack on you, your beliefs, or christianity in general, but after rereading it I realize that is how it reads. What I wanted to express is a very different point: Huckabee is running for the most powerful public office, he seems to strongly base much of his political stance on his christian religious beliefs, and he claims not to believe in evolution due to these religious beliefs. Since there is already very much controversy regarding this issue in the public school system, I am afraid of a president who might use his religious beliefs as a basis to alter the curriculum of public science instruction. (I want to say that I feel it is a different matter completely if we are discussing home-schooling). The entire situation seems to me like it may someday be looked back upon with repulsion (didn't Americans living in the 19th century sometimes justify slavery using quotes from the bible?). I have different social and religious backgrounds than the majority of my fellow Americans, and in my opinion, popular religious beliefs are all too often interjected into public matters within the US. I believe that if Huckabee has enough influence to become president and he supports weaving christian religious teachings into the public science curriculum in the US, it would come with severe disregard to science and to religious freedoms. By the way, I've always had politically conservative beliefs and used to identify with (and vote for) republican candidates. However, they have lately been relating to voters and political issues more and more through their religious beliefs, and it seems that the party itself is pushing an even more christian-oriented focus than it traditionally has in the past. Even though I've never felt I was a liberal, I will probably vote for one in the upcoming presidential election for the first time because the thought of living in a nation with such a religious influence within its state structure sounds much too similar to what it might be like to live in a country such as Iran. Hope you accept my apologies. Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas too)! Wow! Bio Major you are a good person!! The last thing I expected was an apology. I am sorry if I offended you as well. Please forgive me. I have a lot of close friends that don't agree with me either but we help each other out as much as possible and don't take our differences personal. Like I said earlier, I'm not too sure about Huckabee either. His record is somewhat questionable as Governor of Arkansas. I am now undecided about who to vote for as President. I'm not overly excited about my choices. I believe the Lord above is in control and we'll get the President we deserve. God Bless you Bio Major. Please seek the Lord. I know he loves you very much. You obviously have a lot of love in your heart or you would not have been concerned about my feelings. I would highly recommend the Life Application Study Bible if you don't already have one. They should have them at Wal-mart. I hope and pray that you and your family have a prosperous New Year! Also, get straight A's!!! How can we trust someone THIS OUT OF TOUCH with the scientific community to be president? This man REEKS of ignorance. I believe the Earth is flat, and the holocaust never happened. My ideas MUST be taught alongside the current geography/history standards! For evidence/proof of evolution in a nice, visual vehicle, see Why can't we have both God and evolution? Maybe that's how he chose to do it. I like the idea that evolution is how God chose to do it. Then a much more interesting question arises. Does God ever intervene in the process? You can have a supernatural being and evolution. Why not? Science hasn't disproved that yet. You just can't have the Christian God of the Bible and evolution. The two are mutually exclusive. Evolution is always singled out as a threat to the validity of the Bible, but it's far from being the only one. The Bible is full of things that we reject today. Christians just chose to ignore them. Evolution is a theory that would be easy to disprove if false. A single fossil in the wrong rock layer or a single DNA mis-match would do it. Evolution doesn't demand any faith at all. It just is the best explanation for what we see around us. To take that idea a step further, there might well be some kind of organising principle to the universe that is currently beyond the reach of science. Let's call that thing a deity. Since nearly all human beings have some kind of spiritual awareness, let's assume that we are all responding to that deity. Since the thousands of religions and sects and denominations are mutually incompatible, the greatest probability is that they've all got it wrong. So a God might exist. What is absolutly certain though, is that He isn't anything like the Christian God of the Bible, who is impossible on his own terms and incompatible with what we know about the world. The simplest proof that Christianity is wrong is to consider this: if God is timeless and universal, then belief in Him ought to be as well. But this is not the case. A minority of the world's most devoutly religious people are Christian, and people only become Christian when exposed to other Christians. God can't do it by Himself. A quick glance at the history of Judaism will tell you that God, or Yahweh, was invented around 4,000 BCE. He simply didn't exist before then or hadn't bothered to reveal Himself because the oldest religions date back some 70,000 years. God and evloution do not mix. The textbook description of evolution is "a completly random process that modifies the vehicle of life". Note the "completley random". This implies that no outside interactions can be involved, including creating the process of evolution. I have enjoyed reading this forum as it has been a clean discussion with little name calling/insults. Please keep it that way. Please do not bless me either, I believe in making my own luck. Actually, the "text book"--nay, scientific--definition of evolution is "the frequency of change in alleles in a given population, from one generation to the next. My comments above show precisely why people can believe in a godhead figure and still accept evolutionary theory. Is it possible anyone in our nation would vote for a man that believes the supernatural hero from a really old novel exists??? I thought the people with such silly superstitions were a part of the time when we thought the earth was flat. I understand there are "people of faith" in our country. I've driven across it and seen the sad population we hide in the middle. I've even seen the tacky bumper stickers they place on their cars. But isn't it all like being a Star Trek fan? Humiliating and obsessive at the same time, but nothing you'd base a meaningful decision on? These must be the same people that watch that awful show with bad karaoke. Jim, "the frequency of change" is something other than evolution. You are trying to say when evolution happens, not how it happens or what it is. Evolution is "a completly random process that modifies the vehicle of life". God can't fit into evolution. According to christians, God created Adam and Eve in his image, he didn't make them into his image. So evolution can't fit into christian thesim either. Whomever said that evolution is "the reduction of genes" is incorrect. Evolution may add or remove genes but it is not pureley the reduction of genes. Meldor -- My name's not "Jim." And you're wrong. I've already defined the term and if you won't bother looking it up for yourself, then we're done here. This is basic Biology, my friend (albeit, on the university level). Instead of looking up scientific terms in the dictionary (which deals with colloquialisms and common usage), try actually picking up a scientific text. If you had, I wouldn't be making these comments right now. Sorry about not adressing you by your correct name. I have bothered to look it up. You have defined something that is not evolution. Evolution is not described as "The frequencey of change". What you are saying is the how often evolution happens. Evolution is defined as "mutations in genetic information" not the frequency of genetic changes. This is not biology on a university/college level. We are disputing the definition of evolution, which I learned back in 8th grade. I would suggest reading the first chapter or two of "Defeating darwinism by opening minds" by Phillip E. Johnson. Don't bother to read past the first two chaters. This book explains why evolution and theism don't mix in the first chapter. Yes, I read the books of my opponent. Okay, you've cited your source--a retired LAW professor, who's well-known for being intellectually dishonest (cf.). Now I'll cite MY sources: For a decent article on evolution (in terms of biology), the Wikipedia entry is actually really, really, ridiculously good (and it cites an additional 174 sources, currently): The FAQ at Talk Origins has been around for a long, long time (1994), was written excluslively by scientists (mostly biologists), in an attempt to provide mainstream answers to scientific questions, and is widely accepted in the scientific community. You can read a specific entry, relevant to this discussion here: I suggest you read the entire general FAQ as well: Both of these sources are readable and intelligible. If read thoroughly, I'm certain a reasonable person will better understand evolution (in terms of biology), evolutionary theory, and science (how it operates, its methodology, etc.) in general. Instead of citing non-specialists (and eight grade biology teachers) and being intellectually dishonest, try actually going STRAIGHT TO THE SOURCE with reference to these issues. I simply suggested that you read a part of that book. I have yet to quote from this or use any knowedge from this book or Phillip E. Johnson, not that I ever would. I said that I understood the definition of evolution (and how it worked) in 8th grade, not that I was taught about evolution in 8th grade. I will look at your sources after I finish this post. Something that I still notice is that you have not accepted what the meaning/definition of evolution is. I would repeat my previous description of evolution but I don't wan't to appear closed minded by repeating the same thing over and over. After 4 years of college, 4 years of medical school and 8 years of residency and fellowship it still frightens me that the ignorant and uneducated 'Faithests' (yes I made that word up) have a chance at running the country and influencing future generations. I weep for the future of the human race. ... nothing you'd base a meaningful decision on Anonymous has hit the nail on the head. Religion occupies a fuzzy place in our collective mentality. Not reliable or 'real' enough to base any serious decisions on - hence our government, police and courts are strictly secular - and at the same time yet not quite fake enough to be fully rejected, like Santa Claus, or ghosts. I find it interesting that Tony Blair kept his religion a secret in England until he left politics. The English regard US-style expressions of religious belief with horror, and as something that has nothing to do with the serious matter of running the country. Alright, I found where you got your definition of evolution (Helena Curtis and N. Sue Barnes, Biology, 5th ed. 1989 Worth Publishers, p.974). That description is defining what a genetic mutation is, a change in the sequence of genes. Evolution is a process of genetic mutation and natural selection. Macroscopic evolution takes millions of years to occur. Since Christians believe the earth is a mere six thousand years old, evolution can’t possibly fit into their methodology-unless their book needs another revision (mind you, the all knowing god’s work needs to be corrected, again). Besides, a deity can't manipulate genetic code. If a deity does, evolution becomes creationism and its not, its science. According to Christians, God created Adam and Eve in his image; he didn't make them into his image. Evolution and theism can't mix because changing either, just a little, invalidates both. There is no wobble room here. Just so it’s clear, I'm on evolution's side. Jake, You might want to look up "church of the flying spaghetti monster". Actually, everybody should look up the FSM (flying spaghetti monster). Meldor -- Who said anything about New Land Creationism? You're bordering a straw man argument with that presupposition. Anyway, the best way I can rebut is to repost a response to an article I made back in June of 2005. Oddly enough, it was the exact same argument and after reading it over, I'd said much of the same things I'm saying now. Either way, here it is (I've not included a link to the article I was originally responding to because it's really not that important with regards to this particular discussion): I read the above article by Eugene Volokh earlier today, and found his commentary on the evolutionism/creationism debate to be the ordinary and expected polarizing viewpoint purporting science and religion as coexistive. Though his belabored point came across to me, I am highly doubtful that most would understand the real problem here: the fact that there really is no debate between evolutionism and creationism at all. He concludes with: "Yet scientific popularizers and educators have to deal with the fact that in our society, many people are still religious, and still accept descriptive religion (at least ostensibly). If the popularizers and educators describe science as taking no stand on the existence or influence of God, and as leaving such questions to others, I think they’ll have great success; and, whether they want to or not, they will indeed further undermine descriptive religion. But if they insist, in my view unnecessarily, that the standard scientific theory does take a stand that God is not influencing the world -- and that accepting evolution as the best scientific hypothesis while seeing God’s hand in its operation is an inferior conclusion that is worthy of scientific criticism -- then they will encounter much more resistance." Though he may not be doing so on purpose, he's really just polarizing the two issues--forcing science into a box he's created with his straw man argument with regards to the "scientific standard" that evolutionary theory posits. For more on that, please read his article. I did comment directly on the Huffington Post site, however, the response itself--though slightly contingent on his article--is basically self-sufficient; and so here it is: First of all, the “standard scientific theory” with regards to evolutionary theory is not as stated above; rather, evolutionary theory is simply the frequency of change in alleles—in a given population—from one generation to the next. You’ve touched on an all too common misunderstanding of evolutionary theory—and science in general, for that matter: that somehow, not dealing with god (and in this case, we are clearly discussing the god of the Abrahamic religions) is synonymous to denying god as a potential mover or designer, and essentially, that god “had no part in this process.” Simply put, given the empirical nature of science, metaphysical things, as such, have no place in scientific theories.. Is creationism a “theory” then? Using our scientific terminology it cannot be—given, the only “evidence” of creationism lies in the Bible. And let’s try not to forget that a) the Bible is not a scientific text, b) the Bible never claims to be a scientific text, and c) the “creationism” referenced here began as a movement in the late nineteen-hundreds, following Darwin’s Origin of the Species. Instead of addressing problems with Darwin’s theory (of natural selection—now considered a mechanism of modern evolutionary synthesis), this movement immediately constructed a red herring by ignoring the premises and jumping at the seemingly abject conclusion—that there is no intelligent designer. Either way, we are talking about apples and oranges here, folks. Remember people, you can believe in the god of the Abrahamic religions, while accepting modern evolutionary synthesis. You can believe in “intelligent design.” However, you cannot be a “creationist” as referenced in the above article, and accept modern evolutionary synthesis, since this movement of creationism—commonly referred to Young Earth or New Land Creationism—was a knee-jerk reaction to early Darwinian evolutionary theory. I encourage all interested parties to take a detailed look at reputable references like Wikipedia or TalkOrigins, before perpetuating these detrimental misapplications of evolutionary theory. According to you (you are correct here), “. “ You yourself have said it. “God”—a word, a concept, an idea, a symbol of belief, etc.—cannot be introduced into scientific theory because scientific theory is bound by methodology (cf., scientific method). Scientific theory and theism can’t mix. They can not combine in any way without changing the other in a way that is still retains what the original meaning was. Yes, I can see how I am using a “straw-man argument”. It is the only course of action I have not already taken as I have already correctly defined your definitions of words and clarified the process of evolution. You've not clarified anything. You've only made the argument that much more confusing. Go back and read EVERYTHING I said. And also re-read the original argument you made that I took issue with. I stated clearly that one can believe in a "godhead figure" and still "accept evolutionary theory." You have taken that to mean fundamental Christianity (which baffles me) and have completely construed my meaning. You've still not completely accepted the actual, biological definition of evolution. But most importantly, you still miss the point: People can believe in "god" a creator--in "Intelligent Design"--and still accept science for what it is. For a reasonable person understands that science is scientific and god belief is not--nor does it claim to be. Do not deal only with fundamentals and creationists because that's not all that's out there. And what you, or I, believe or do not believe is irrelevant to this discussion. What is relevant is that many people out there strongly believe in a god creator, and still accept evolutionary theory as a credible scientific explanation concerning how things change over time. I don't know how much more simplistic I can get. What began as a simple pointing out of a hasty generalization you made, turned into a biological discussion (of which I still think you need to do a bit of reading), and now we're back to the beginning and my point is still fuzzy in your head. Really take a few moments--perhaps a few days--and re-read everything here and really delve into my sources. You might learn something about evolutionary theory and you might also learn something about the Abrahamic religions. And with that, I leave you. I can't entertain this discussion anymore. I haven't the time, nor the inclination. Best of luck. For those of you who believe that evolution is a fact and that every scientist believes it, do yourselves a favor and start actually looking at the body of scientific work disputing its validity...religion aside. Check the following link and please try to keep an open mind - there are 5 parts: I believe the Lord above is in control and we'll get the President we deserve Wow, Jim, you're right. Let's cancel the election, and determine who God wants us to have by throwing dice? Or perhaps a religious committee of church elders could decide for us? I never said that you can't believe in god and evolution. I said "God can't fit into evolution". Look who isn't reading now. God is a supernatural being. Science does not rely on and can't include supernatural beings because science relies on natural occurrences. So, if you want to include god as a mechanism for evolution, in a philosophical debate, that’s fine. But the theory of evolution is a scientific theory and science is, by definition, exclusive of the supernatural. I'm sorry if this is hard to follow, I wrote it as I watched the video. As for the Youtube videos: Part I Darwin didn’t rebel against Christianity. Nice, “Carl marks, an atheist and the originator of communism”. What does communism have to do with evolution? Nothing, I saw that attempt to associate atheism with “evil”. How the hell was evolution fundamental in the creation of communism? We have observed one form of life evolve into another. Look at pests, they become resistant to pesticides because the ones that have superior genes can survive against them. Yes, a worm could potentially turn into a superior being similar to Homo-sapiens, given billions of years, not millions. The earth is old. New rock have been forming much faster that old rocks have been staying. If I have a very old house, am I likely to have all the original material in that house? It is true that most genetic mutations are fatal. However, some of those changes are beneficial. Over time, there are enough beneficial changes to make an organism qualify as a new species when compared to its ancestors. Part II For an incomplete and very short list of common transitional form please visit. It would be more credible if this video showed these scientists contradicting themselves. Because of erosion and lack of fossilization in the first place, there are some gaps. We have enough transitional forms to accurately prove that they exist. Can we see a copy of this quote from doctor Peterson? Darwin said he had a lack of transitional forms because they had not been discovered yet, see above link. Monkeys didn’t turn into humans, monkeys and humans shared a common ancestor that turned into two distinct species. Those species eventually evolved into what they are today. I already addressed the issue of evolution with insects becoming resistant to pesticides. To clarify, those are minor changes. If you have enough minor changes you will get a noticeable macroscopic change. The “missing links that troubled Darwin” have been found. There is no misrepresentation (see “”). Please stop repeating yourself, its getting boring and becoming a waste of my time. Those “prehuman” footprints are called “Paluxy river manprints”. It was a hoax and has been disproven. For more information about this see about halfway down the page. The Homo neanderthalensis (Neanderthals) is not part of the evolutionary chain that lead to homo sapiens (humans), you are thinking of homo cromagnum (cromagnums). That “pig” AKA “Nebraska man” was a hoax The bursts in evolution are real and are not some cheap ploy to keep evolution alive. Some of these bursts were because of enviromental changes. Some examples include the oxygen rich period called the carboniferous period which was caused by the evolution of spores which enabled more plants. More plants means more oxygen, more oxygen means more animals. Another example of an evolutionary burst is when organisms could become multicellular, enabling them to become insanely more complex. What caused the video to bring this up? “lack of transitional forms”. Once again, look up. I have already coved this and recall saying not to bring this up, why am I answering the same question a third time? I’m beginning to feel like I’m on a reality show. This “instant reptile to bird” thing is bullshit. Stop looking for a “brick wall” where a reptile suddenly becomes a bird. You can find it because it evolution doesn’t work like that. “the scientific evidence for creationism is much stonger than the evidence of evolution”. I’ll cite my evidene, you site yours? As a token of good will, genetic markers caused by inactive retroviruses and. Evolution has been observed, look at the pesticide resistant pests or the evolution of a microorganism. Part III We can’t suggest that life came from outer space? Where does your god live? Certantly not in the atmosphere, I’m sure an airplane would have come near enough for pictures by now… Evidence of evolution, genetic markers caused by inactive retroviruses and I’m not sure what this “humanism” is but we have scientific evidence to support evolution. “Parents will not say anything about something taught in the classroom that disturbs them”, untrue. Lookup the “Dover trial”. See also,. Here we are again, associating atheism with the soviet union. Guess what, the soviet union isn’t the only country presenting evolution as fact. There is this country called the United States of America that does it to. Scientists don’t want creationism taught in public schools any more that preachers want evolution taught in Sunday school. “The only approach is to present all the scientific information to children and let them make up their own minds”. We do present all the scientific information to children. The government doesn’t force the children to believe in evolution either, they can make up their own minds if they want to. Creationism is not non-religious. It requires a higher being to be creationism and that higher being is god(s/es/esses). The relevant discussion is not what the definition of evolution is, it's whether or not you feel comfortable with a presidential candidate whose self described "faith" (belief without need of facts) causes him to disregard a stack of scientific facts. There is no controversy about evolution, other than what some people who don't like it stir up, and that controversy is largely confined to the US. In other industrialized nations, as in the scientific community itself, evolution is *very* widely accepted. I could footnote, but that would probably be boring, so I won't bother at this time. If a person finds a scientific theory distasteful, or in conflict with philosophical (not scientific) beliefs, that does not reduce its validity. Nor should the word "theory" be misunderstood. Unlike the colloquial definition of theory as a guess or idea, scientific theories undergo rigorous examinations, are supported by facts, and allow predictions to be made. When such predictions turn out to be true, they validate the theory. Other scientific theories include germ theory, relativity, and much of mathematics, yet we can use them to make medicines, nuclear power plants, and computers. Still, they are "only" theories. My point is that Huckabee has STATED that he puts irrational and controversial beliefs ahead of science facts. That makes me wonder if he will do the same when it comes to making important political decisions. Mr. Huckabee, should Iran be invaded as it might have nuclear weapons? Should the decision be influenced by the fact that they are inimical to Isreal, and threatn the dominance of your religious beliefs? What if your god "spoke" to you and said "nuke them first"? I can think of 3 governments which are *heavily* influenced by religious fundamentalism that the US has recently been involved with: Afghanstan (under the Taliban), Iraq (Shiites vs. Sunnis), and Iran. Other Western governments are not so influenced by religion as we in the US are, and our fascination with the religious beliefs of our candidates puzzles their citizens. If we, in the US, want to continue down the road paved by other heavily fundamentalistic nations, then we should endorse candidates with fundamental beliefs. If, instead, we want to uphold the constitution (specifically the establishment clause), then we must divorce right-wing religious influence from politics. Nicely said Jim. Reducing the question to one of whether humans came from monkeys misses a tremendous amount of what science has taught us. I believe the universe, and perhaps God are more marvelous for being 15 billion years old than for being, as creationists tell us, 6,000 years old. Science education needs to go back to the beginning of the universe with the big bang. From nothing came everything. It started with positive and negative energy, waves and particles that combined to form matter, hydrogen. Hydrogen was gathered by gravity, a mysterious force we still don’t fully understand, and formed stars. Gravity, heat and the resulting pressure fused hydrogen into helium and began the formation of all of the elements. Stars grew old, blew apart and elements were spread throughout the universe to form what we see now. Life could not have come about without the billions of year process of forming elements from basically nothing. I for one, marvel at the hand of God in all of this. “Evolution” is generally seen as the process on Earth wherein elements combined into self replicating molecules that, over billions of years either were successful at reproducing and surviving in their environment or not. The survivors found niches where they could be successful and, by natural selection, were culled to where the most successful survived and the others didn’t. Each mutation that resulted in a more successful organism carried with it the best of the “parents” and developed new and more successful adaptations. It took a very long time. The planet changed life and life changed the planet. The environment creates opportunity and life takes advantage to fill the niche. I understand the frustration of those who perceive that God is left out of science. Science deals with the measurable, the concrete. It does not disprove God to embrace science, but it does not prove God either. Faith should be arrived at in homes and churches, not schools. Whether we think the universe is 6,000 or 15,000,000,000 years old we still need to ponder the questions of faith. Evolution still doesn’t answer the question of what caused the big bang. The laws of motion, the dualistic (particle/wave) nature of energy and the forces of nature have guided the development of the universe into something that supports consciousness, in us. Consciousness, God’s or ours, is not readily explained by science. I love the metaphorical beauty I see in the Bible. I don’t expect the prophets of old to have spent their time finding literal descriptions of how the universe was created. They got what was important. A question as to how long a day was before there was a sun is pointless to faith. That we have the capacity to ponder such questions is the miracle. We have the capacity to understand what an incredible universe we live in. We are given tools to manipulate our universe. We can preserve what billions of years has made suitable for us (stewardship) or we can commit suicide as individuals or as a species. Perhaps that is what is meant by our having been created in the image of God. Jake, listen to yourself, you're the one who believes in throwing dice. Because of your unbelief, you have to explain everything by large expanses of time and chance happenings. I'll take the candidate who has sincere faith in the Almighty, thank you very much. As far as some of the rest of you, this is what you sound like. Blah. Blah. Blah. Do your brain a favor and get you a good study Bible. Jake, listen to yourself, you're the one who believes in throwing dice. Because of your unbelief, you have to explain everything by large expanses of time and chance happenings. Nonsense. I don't have to explain everything at all. I'm completely comfortable with knowing that we don't know everything. But we do know some things for certain. And we know enough to know that the Bible is a bunch of baloney written by superstitious peasants thousands of years ago. And the peasants didn't even agree with each other. There are lots of websites that list the contradictions and downright nonsense and immorality in the Bible - I won't do it here. So why on earth should intelligent people 'study' such silly fairy tales? Much less elect a person who believes in them. Have your spirituality if it comforts you, but don't pretend that some areas of well-understood science are controversial, when they're not. Wow Jake man. You are quite hostile toward Christianity. I would not chance going out in a thunderstorm if I were you. Just kidding! The Christian GOD of the Bible does exist my friend and I'm sure he loves you anyway. Lets just politely agree to disagree. You go ahead and keep worshipping your imperfect science and I will keep worshipping the perfect ONE who created you and your beloved science. Wise men still seek JESUS. If He, in his infinite wisdom, had any intention of smiting me, he would have done it by now. Of course I may burn in Hell for all eternity, but I very much doubt it. If I do, I'll be joining most of the human race. As for protection in storms, God didn't seem to care much about the religious folk of New Orleans. If there is a God, He's as likely to smite you as he is me. Actually, no one should "burn in hell". Christian's God is supposed to be "all forgiving" and should therefore not send anyone to hell. The point is, Huckabee has blatantly ignored scientific facts and has put his belief before science. This tells me that if he becomes president, he will do what is best for his ego. He won't take in all the facts and make an educated decision based on those facts. Truth: "Evolution is just a theory" another truth: so is gravity. Deal with it. I just don't understand why God and evolution can't coexist. Hey Jake. I thought you libs were blaming Katrina on Bush? You are the first one I've heard blame God for that lately. Man, I feel sorry for you. You sound like one angry, unhappy, bitter person. And Meldor, you just don't have a clue. Westcoa, I can prove gravity but you can't prove evolution. You probably also believe that alarmist global warming bull as well. I'm sorry Westcoa. I can respect the opinion that the book of Genesis may be allegorical and that if evolution is true, then God did it. But comparing evolution to gravity is not a good comparison. Well, look at me; I'm back on this channel... Oh well... Jim -- Actually, yes, it certainly is, given the fact that both are scientific theories (a "theory," scientifically speaking, is merely a collection of corresponding facts). In terms of science, both hold the same weight. We've observed certain facts that have led us to said conclusions, whether it concerns the theory of evolution, the theory of gravity, the theory of plate tectonics, the theory of quantum mechanics, etc. Wikipedia has a decent article on the scientific definition of "theory." Read it, and perhaps you'll modify your position. Jim, Katrina was just weather. I don't believe God had any influence over it, mainly because he doesn't exist. I was just wondering how you can explain your God standing back and allowing terrible things to happen to innocent and / or religious people. People who pray desperately and devoutly to him, and he still smites them. That's gotta hurt. Actually I'm a very contented person, who's happy to accept that our time on the planet is short, random and chaotic. I believe that meaning comes from making the best of it in the here and now and that makes me very calm - the opposite of angry and bitter. And of course Genesis is allegorical. Duh. So are the plays of William Shakespeare. It's fiction - they're not meant to be taken at face value. But even if you take the 'God made evolution' line, it still contradicts Christian doctrine that mankind has a special place in the world, and is made in God's image. The whole point of evolution is that we are not special - we are quite literally related to all life on earth and we are constantly changing as our climate and environment changes around us. The fool says in his heart, "There is no God" ... Psalm 53 I sure hope this verse of scripture does not apply to you. I believe that if you were in our military fighting for our right to argue and your life were in danger, then I bet the Lord Almighty (Maker of heaven and earth) is the one you would call on. I am going to pray for you Jake. I promise you God does exist. Hello Adam. Yes I've read the articles in the online encylopedia. So what. That's horse-hockey. I've stayed out of this one for a while, but here goes. As to this all knowing, loving and caring God. Where exactly is he when 4000+ servicemen and women are being killed in Iraq? Where is he when children are taken from their homes and assaulted and murdered? Or worse, when it happens in their home by someone who they trust? Where is this God when those least able to protect themselves are so brutally treated? Where is he when children starve to death every day on this earth? I call Bullsh!T and challenge any scripture quoting, bible thumping evangelist to answer these questions with responses other than "it must have been their time. or God called them home." XTC said it best in the song Dear God; , Dont know if you noticed, But your name is on a lot of quotes in this book. Us crazy humans wrote it, you should take a look, And all the people that you made in your image, Still believing that junk is true. Well I know it aint and so do you, Dear god, I cant believe in, I dont believe in, I wont believe in heaven and hell. No saints, no sinners, No devil as well. No pearly gates, no thorny crown. Youre always letting us humans down. The wars you bring, the babes you drown. Those lost at sea and never found, And its the same the whole world round. The hurt I see helps to compound, That the father, son and holy ghost, Is just somebodys unholy hoax, And if youre up there youll perceive, That my hearts here upon my sleeve. If theres one thing I dont believe in... Its you, Dear god." And finally; No, we should not being electing a man who does not believe in evolution. We've had 7 years of a president who stayed true to his inane convictions and look what that has brought us. So, if you dont believe in evolution, how do you explain dinosaur bones? And the thousands of years old human-like remains that arent quite human, arent quite ape? Did God make the dinos? Dont get me wrong, I'm a christian, i believe in God, and i have enough faith in God to believe in evolution, not creationism. I believe God created the environment in which the Earth has evolved on its own. Man wrote the Bible, Man, who is imperfect and error-prone, and who has evolved over time to be what we are today. The Illusionist, hello to you, I didn't know the XTC song, but I LOVE it! Thanks for posting it here. Jim, this is also not my own material, but it's a another classic and funny riposte to Christianianity. It's an open letter to the appalling Dr Laura Schlessinger. Jim, your ridiculously lame "The fool says in his heart, "There is no God" ... Psalm 53" put me in mind of it. The point being that the Bible is full of nonsense. Why take any of it seriously when so much of it is laughable ... Here Let's be conservative and say there are 100 religions in the world all of which believe they are THE real religion. Well, that means 99 have to be wrong and only one can be right. Which one is right? My bet is all 100 are wrong! For the most part your religion and beliefs are governed by your indoctrination as a child, particularly with the biggie religions. If Jews and Muslims were born a few miles to the east or west, they would be in the "opposing" camp. Nothing magic going on here, just humans being humans. Hey Jim, if we're all 'ignorant humans', then what exactly does that make YOU? What claims do you have to enlightenment? Thank you Jim! All these scientists keep trying to use their "facts" and "reality" to justify evolution. Well guess what... I've got a book that was written 2,000 years ago by ancient people that refutes all their "evidence." Preach on! "Which takes more faith, the belief that God created us or that the earth "Magically" appeared and we happened to evolve over millions of years from non-living organisms? " I think it takes more faith to believe that science teaches that we evolved from "non-living " organisms when clearly it says we evolved from living organisms. What a moron you are! Great blog as for me. I'd like to read more about this topic. BTW look at the design I've made myself Russian escort

by Daniel Bullard-Bates Having finished Braid this week in the Monthly Game Club, we're left with many questions about the meaning of the game. One thing is certain, however: Braid stands as a profound example of the quality and polish possible in the world of independent games, and the level of intelligence possible in all video games, independent or otherwise. Jonathan Blow, the developer and designer of the game, was kind enough to answer a few questions for us on being an independent game developer, the role of interactivity in games, and the inspiration for Braid. _________________________________________________ Your game was independently made, but first released on Xbox Live Arcade. Would you share a few thoughts with us on being an independent game designer working with a huge corporation like Microsoft? Whenever dealing with a company like this, you usually work with a (relatively) small division. I don't really know what kinds of politics goes on there, because for the most part Microsoft is good at isolating developers from that. Usually I would be dealing with just 1 or 2 people, and spending most of my time making the game. Because they had done a lot of Arcade titles before Braid, they did a pretty good job of ushering games through the approval and certification process with minimal BS. I did have one episode late in development where someone on the Microsoft side who I had never talked to decided to monkey with the game at the last minute in an unexpected way, and that was a very negative experience, but ultimately I decided to go ahead and release the game on XBLA anyway. Largely, though, it was a hands-off experience: my job was to make a good game, and the job of the guys I talked to at Microsoft was to help me get that game onto their service. How do you think services like Xbox Live Arcade, Playstation Network, and WiiWare are affecting the independent gaming world? It's definitely a positive thing that independent game developers have these places to sell games where they can find a large audience and where the piracy rate is relatively low -- it means that it's much more feasible now to make a living as an independent developer than it was 10 years ago. Braid has been cited as an example in the continued debate about whether video games can be art. What do video games need to do to be taken seriously as an artistic medium? All that needs to happen is for game developers to do more-serious work. The appreciation will come from that, naturally. Right now, the work isn't there. Most of what we do as an industry is about pandering and infantilism. If enough of us just stop doing that, we will find that there is an audience out there that takes us seriously. How does interactivity change the ways ideas or stories are explored? It just leads to the contemplation of a different field of ideas than something like film or music does. I can't say how that is "changed" from another medium because they aren't necessarily related that closely. There are connections, sure, but each one is in its own right a wide and deep body of stuff that can't be easily summarized. That's why we use these media to explore these things! If I can just say what the point is, then we don't need games in the first place. Braid uses a number of innovative game mechanics; did the story inspire the gameplay, or vice versa? The whole thing came to mind at roughly the same time. I would say that maybe the gameplay idea came first, by a very thin hair, but it was a very general idea -- that the way time behaves would change from world to world, though I didn't know what those behaviors would be, and in fact had very different ideas about these time behaviors initially than what ended up in the game. But as soon as I had that concept, I knew that I wanted the game to be done in the tradition of Italo Calvino's book Invisible Cities and Alan Lightman's book Einstein's Dreams, and that there would be textual pieces introducing each world. One thing a number of people have said, when being critical of the game, is that they wish that the story parts happened in cut-scenes or were otherwise integrated into the gameplay. When they say this, I detect some kind of sentiment that, hey, now that we *can* have cut-scenes or pieces of story dribbled to us during the primary gameplay (as in Bioshock), that these are the only valid way to do things, that somehow text is obsolete. But that is a bit silly. The book has not gone away, and the way subjects are explored in literature are different than how they happen in dialogue or in pictures. It's a different medium, it has a different grain, and it's perfectly valid to use that grain if you want to. (And if a designer does not know this fact, then he is going to work with an incomplete toolbox!) From the very first day, Braid was conceived as a videogame with its story presented in the tradition of a few books that I respect, and maybe a film or two. Do you have any advice for aspiring independent game developers? The most important thing is to make games and get them done. The second most important thing is to ensure that those games are the best things that you can make, whatever that means to you. Unfortunately these two goals are in conflict. Would you like to share with us what you're working on now? Every time I answer this question, it's something different. I have four different games that I have taken to the prototype stage since finishing Braid. I keep changing my mind about which game is really my next project, so I would just be misleading you if I gave a concrete answer here! Friday, June 26, 2009 Reflections with Jonathan Blow Oh, I want to hang out with him. He mentioned Alan Lightman! Also he made this game, which is pretty neat. Invisible Cities as a game inspiration!? Damnit, I guess I should catch up and check out this game... As a sidenote, a couple games that might be interesting to check out, whenever there is an open slot in the Monthly Game Club, are the works of Jason Rorher (Passage, Gravitation, and Between) and possibly Zeno Clash (let me look into the game more before I solidly recommend it) this was an interesting piece. If anyone is interested in Blow's work or hearing him talk about games, I would also recommend the NYU game center podcasts he has a discussion of his game background and also a a sit-down with Frank Lantz. It's good stuff. From what I can glean of his words around the Internet in interviews and blogs and such, he always comes off as more than a little... high-and-mighty, I suppose. Still, I can't deny that I did absolutely love Braid, after all. It seems to me that if you've made a game as good and successful as Braid, you sort of have the right to speak with authority on these subjects. I certainly would like to see more of the games industry heed his advice.

Candid photo from Anne Frank. One of my favorite memories ever. This is Morgan and Sarah and we were supposed to be in dress rehearsal but obviously we’re having more fun out of character. I miss this so much. And I adored the outfit (minus the Anne Frank hair) Lisa had me in for this scene and I adore Morgan’s outfit he looks so adorable and so does Sarah! Let’s face it, we’re pretty great ;)

Rare New Pepsi, Doritos, Hidden Valley Ranch, Tostitos, Glad Trash Bags, Quaker and Several Others Gone? Friday, January 25th 2013 at 11:47 PM | Hi! I have no idea. I unfortunately could not print them… That is very odd. I have yet to come across that… Things get more and more complicated all the time with coupons.. I am having a great day when all 3 of the major coupon supplies work for me. Red Plum works great for me now, but Smartsource is giving me fits… Thursday, January 24th 2013 at 3:11 PM | FYI: I tried to print these coupons from my other computers and it already recognized that I had printed them. I think because I have the same printer for all computers so it saw that one registered? I don’t have any other printers so I couldn’t try to change my default printer.

prius compressor after body shop serviced a/c Album created by lech auto air conditionin, Sep 9, 2011. Image 25 of 44 - Reedja42 We have been trained over the years to always look for the "great deals". Sometimes though, you get what you pay for. I don't think I would trust just anyone working on a car as sophisticated as a Prius. - trseven I'm now thinking this is also my problem. Bought a 2004 from an insurance auction. Took a deer to the hood. Bought an aftermarket condenser. Did all the repair work before swapping in the new condenser. Now when its on Max both low and high side pressures are up to high. Found that if I tend the temp and keep the fan speed medium or just one above it does cool good and the pressures are in range. Takes longer to cool the car but its been effective even on 104 degree day. Need to buy a oe condeser to fix it. Will just have to suck it up and buy one. Thanks for all the great info you've been posting here!

Fort Bragg Staff Sgt faces attempted murder charges in police stand-off FAYETTEVILLE, N.C. — Jan 16 2012 A Fort Bragg soldier is facing 30 charges after exchanging gunfire with police and barricading himself in his apartment for hours Friday night and Saturday morning. Staff Sgt. Joshua P. Eisenhauer is charged with 15 counts of attempted first-degree murder, six counts of felony assault on a law enforcement official and nine counts of felony assault on a government official. Eisenhauer was listed in critical condition after the gunfire exchange. Two Fayetteville Police officers were also injured during the standoff with the soldier at an apartment complex, according to a police spokesman. Ft. Bragg Saturday morning identified the soldier as Staff Sgt. Joshua P. Eisenhauer. He was assigned to Fort Bragg’s Warrior Transition Battalion. That’s a unit for wounded soldiers or soldiers transitioning out of the military, according to a Ft. Bragg spokesman. Fayettevile police spokesman Gavin MacRoberts said Eisenhauer was in critical but stable condition at UNC Hospitals in Chapel Hill. In a 4 a.m. news conference spokesman MacRoberts said the injuries to the officers were “minor.” One officer has a cut to the head and the other has shrapnel in an arm. The injuries are the result of a four-hour standoff that started with firefighters responding to a fire. Firefighters arrived to the Austin Creek Apartment complex on 71st School Road around 10 p.m. While there was not a major fire at the complex, firefighters were not able to get into any of the apartments they were trying to respond to, so they called police for help. Police said a man started shooting at them around 10:30 p.m. and that officers fired back. The man then went back into his apartment on the third floor. Police cleared out people from nearby apartments and took them to the fire station across the street. “It is definitely nerve-racking when you know loved ones are in a situation and no ones giving you information, you just know someone has been shooting,” said Trevor Jones. As a result, members of the Emergency Response Team used explosives to take out the front door of the suspect’s apartment. They sent in a robot. They found Eisenhauer on the kitchen floor and he was taken into custody around 2:10 a.m. One of the officers was also taken to the hospital. The other was treated on the scene. Because this was an officer-involved shooting, the State Bureau of Investigation will be investigating. The officers involved will be placed on administrative duty during the SBI investigation. The names of the officers will be released after “proper notifications” have been made, according to MacRoberts. Police shut down 71st School Road around the apartment complex for several hours. “They wouldn’t tell me anything. They wouldn’t tell me anything. They wouldn’t tell me if my apartment’s OK or what’s going on,” said a woman named Karen who lives in the complex, but declined to give her last name. Jonathan Saucier also lives in the complex. He left work early when he found out about the situation. His wife was home alone. “I’m actually very worried. I can’t get to her, but what can I do?,” he said. While he couldn’t get to his wife because of the police barricades, his wife was giving him updates by phone. “She first told me she’d been hearing gunshots. Everyone was hanging out of the balcony looking what’s was going on,” he said. Saucier said his wife heard the explosion when police blew open the suspect’s door. “She said it was the loudest noise she’s heard since and it set off car alarms.” The road re-opened to traffic just before 3 a.m. “I am truly proud of the valiant conduct displayed by our safety and security personnel in response to this challenging situation,” said City Manager Dale Iman in a written statement Saturday. “I am grateful to the fire fighters who attempted to make the citizens who were displaced to our fire station as comfortable as possible. The investigation into the incident is ongoing. Jones lives directly below the suspect and said he was worried about his girlfriend. He also said Eisenhauer seemed like a quiet person. Crisis Team negotiators tried unsuccessfully to contact Eisenhauer for several hours. Source:NBC17

Method and Mission Statement Productive Playhouse was founded on the idea that children’s programming could teach complex subjects in funny, entertaining ways. Parents should be able to offer their children serious learning, and fun enjoyable entertainment all in one! Writer/directors Harry Ralston and Tamara Stern began aligning with top children’s educators in several disciplines to develop series that offered deeper learning and skill building hidden in inventive visuals, stories and fun. The company’s first reading series, Your Child Can Read, established this Productive Playhouse model of implementing a top expert’s teaching methodology into a series of fun playful episodes. Further series created explored other subjects, including counting, shapes and geometry, music and color theory, all delivered though songs, animated characters and PP’s resident bookworm puppet, Benji! New projects in development expand on the company approach to include a foreign language series for kids, a more-effective story-based exercise program to combat childhood obesity, a highly practical parenting how-to series, and a new therapeutic series for Autistic young adults. Our entertainment programming is focused on making kids laugh, and then learn a little bit about their world, in the same spirit that Bugs Bunny and Dr. Suess taught them.

It sounds like Revis Island could be closed this weekend. Rich Cimini of ESPNNewYork.com reports that that “feeling around the Jets” is that Revis will miss at least one game. The injury isn’t believed to be overly serious, but the Jets surely want Revis fully healthy before testing him again. The Jets head to Miami on Sunday night in a game New York needs to win to avoid a two game deficit in the AFC East. Brandon Marshall does not seem like a fun guy to cover with a balky hamstring. If Revis sits out, the Jets could tempted to also rest him the following week against the Bills. The way miami’s O is looking right now ,let him sit and get 100%..we dont need him in this one.. How cute that he hurt it chasing down Moss after he burned him. Maybe if you go to training camp you would be looser its an interesting way to look at it. Favre misses camp is noticeably uncomfortable. Revis gets burned must be a hamstring. He’ll be back this week he just couldnt be seen after Moss facialized him and Cro amazingly covered him even better than Revis! Hamstring is the biggest BS Ive heard since whatever comes out Favres mouth As a Dolphins fan I actually want Revis to play. It is not a true test for your team if you’re not playing your rivals at full strength. If he can’t go in the Dolphins game, I would definitely keep him out of the Bills game too. Hamstring injuries linger and are the kind of injury that can worsen if not rested. They don’t need him to shut down half the field against the Bills. Edwards will shut down the whole field all by himself. If Revis sits out, the Jets could tempted to also rest him the following week against the Bills. COULD BE No need to proof read.. How do I get a job working for this site? I feel like every Rosenthal article is an Easter Egg hunt to find the obligatory spelling/grammar error(s). See if you can find the F-up in this one! Yeah, who needs training camp? Gregg, I am guessing you don’t know much about the AFC East. You can’t take anyone lightly when it’s an AFC East battle. That goes for the Bills also. They will play us harder at their home, than against anyone else. This isn’t baseball where you can sit your stars for a game to recharge, because you think it’s an easy game. Brandon Marshall sucks anyway. Revis should be the lucky one… he don’t want it with Marshall Just throw to Marshall every play with or without Revis FIRST. Marshall will have a field day against either Revis with a bum hammy/or Kyle Wilson. I think Dolphins will pummel Sanchez at their home opener Sunday Night now that they have some confidence after handing Favre and ass whooping and Vontae emerging as a stud. Dolphins Victory 20-10, and they finally will be recognized by the rest of the league as a true contender Revis is the lucky one. Now he doesnt have to get bulldozed and take a beating from Marhsall and get shown up for being the overrated hype machine he is. He’s not even the best corner in the division. Vontae Davis is. I’m not sure Moss or Welker were particularly lucky in the second half of last nights game with the Teddy P look-a-like sidelined…. Noooo, Marshall wants to face Revis. Dolphins have won 3 straight against the Jets with Revis playing, and the Patriots played worse when Revis left the game. Wish he would play. Marshall would help all the clueless jests fan realize gilligan’s island is average at best. Overhyped and overrated. What do you expect from the stinking, lousy nyj??? That sucks, Def wanted towatch Marshall manhandle Mr. Revis. Cro will do just fine against Marshall. Go ahead and say Marshall owned him back in the AFC West, but truth is anyone who plays a base Zone coverage against Marshall will be doomed. Marshall will get his usual for this season so far, but the rest of Dolphins offense will play considerably worse( if thats at all possible). Henne will be pressured, Ronnie/Ricky will be bottled up. This will be a low scoring game, as Miami’s D is serious. I have to give credit when its due, Vontae is a heck of football player. Throw in Wake, Dansby, Starks, and you got yourself a Top 5 D, very impressive. The key to this game will be if Sanchez can build off his nearly flawless performance against the Pats. I doubt he will but still think the Jets will pull this one out in a VERY close one. Can’t wait for this one!! Didn’t Vontae Davis injure himself celebrating yesterday?! LOL yeah totally afraid of that guy Boy , you’d think by reading this fanbases B.S rants on here Miami was scoring 30 points a game these 1st 2 games, NE could only muster up 14 points ,what you think we’ll hold your amenic offense too.. Dolphins will win either way. Marshall will make some plays, but it is the Miami running game that the Jets can’t stop. Miami 13 Jets 6 Wow that should be fun to watch! Kravon Revis or not, the fins will run over the jests. Fins will run right at JT and his boo boo elbow. The beast will get his catches. By the end of the season the corner everyone will be talking about is Vontae Davis. Way to over pay Jets! Why would Brandon Marshall be considered lucky? Randy Moss was completely shut down AFTER Revis left the game. “If Revis sits out, the Jets could tempted to also rest him the following week against the Bills.” Let him play and play badly…. ALL we hear are excuses from gag green anyway. Marshall will eat him up or crow which should be funny to watch. Miami will run ALL over the hapless wets per usual. 3-0 bank it! Nyjets31 says: September 20, 2010 12:18 PM The way miami’s O is looking right now ,let him sit and get 100%..we dont need him in this one.. Actually a good point. The biggest hole on the Jets will be the NT, which the Dolphins will much rather exploit that Marshall having massive day. JetFan in Miami says: September 20, 2010 1:08 PM Didn’t Vontae Davis injure himself celebrating yesterday?! LOL yeah totally afraid of that guy He did, but he’s fine, played well after that. He isn’t on Revis’s level but he’s no “slouch”. JetFaninMiami – was that a hilarious grammatica moment or what? dbess – what kind of loser posts “FIRST” in a comments thread? a miami doll-fan. GO GANG GREEN I guess you blow hole fans havent figured out that Mr. Marshall is no good if the ball doesnt get to him. If your offense is that one dimensional you need not worry about Revis…you got bigger fish to fry..(no pun intended)…and your gonna have to put up more than 14-17 points. You dont have a Wes Welker either. Cromarti can handle it……When Revis is healthy Marshall isnt going to burn him deep,nor is anyone else for that matter. See you on the field,until then,you havent earned any braggin rights. Jet fans are crazy if you think u don’t need revis. The dolphins weren’t showing anything offensivly the first two games because they are saving it for this week. The jets have nothing on game film to prepare for, so when Sunday night comes the jets are going to get hit right in the mouth. Good luck against the blitz sanchez cam wake is coming for you @JetFan in Miami Vontae Davis is more of a complete CB that anyone on your team… As far as him injuring himself, I’ll take a stinger after laying a big hit on a TE than pulling a hamstring getting burned for 6 any day means cromartie will cover him which is wut ended moss’s day n they will blitz less zone more henne will have to check down more to fasano wildcat will be in trouble this week Dolphins suck anyways. Can’t believe these chumps are saying they are “true contenders’ and Vontae Davis is the best cb in the afc east. Give me a break. Your team is a joke. Cromartie will be fine on Marshall. See you on Sunday. Cromartie is built for guys likie moss and marshall big tall lanky wrs who can’t run a solid route except a streak down the sidline.hense why welker blew him up and then cro shut moss down for the rest of the game forcing a pick and having his own. By the way cro is on course for 16 picks this season lol. Were gonna stuff you guys like we stuffed both these teams in the run and were gonna shut down ur one reciever, then force your joke QB to throw because if it wasn’t for one long pass on sheppard ( who sucks believe me I watched him all last season) your offense was pitiful you could barely win with favre trying to hand the game to you guys. Sanchez to keller all day next week and there’s nothing you can do about it. Chad Henne would have to be capable of throwing for more than 115 yds in a game for Marshall to have a big day. Fizz says: The dolphins weren’t showing anything offensivly the first two games because they are saving it for this week. this could be the single stupidest comment i’ve seen today. congratulations Fizz. GGG 17-14 Jets Dolphins shut down Favre and AP in Minnesota. I bet Sanchize an Greene give them chills. RAMROD says: COULD BE No need to proof read..How do I get a job working for this site? Proofread is one word. You’re Fired! Jets should expect trouble this week against Marshall. but lets stop the conspiracy theory that Revis is faking injury. This is a guy looking to already line up another huge payday. He is as confident as it gets and would have no fear going against Marshall if he was crazy enough to call out Moss, whos much better than Marshall is. The problem is this guy has a hamstring problem because he missed all of training camp due to being a greedy D-bag. He isnt in football shape and the hint for everyone should have been the Jets lining him up away from Boldin at the end of the Ravens game. This is what happens when you dont come to camp. The Jets probably have enough on defense anyway to win the game, but coming from a guy who has Brandon Marshall on my fantasy team, I would expect a big week out of the guy. way to go Revis. Next time spend your offseason getting ready to play instead of waiting around for a raise I wish he would play. I don’t want the Jersey Jets to have any excuses for the beatdown coming !!! Did anyone take a close look at what Revis did when Moss burned him for that TD? As he’s running into the end zone he grabs his “right” hamstring for just a second, and then as if by some crazy twist of fate, he then goes for the left one. I guess in the heat of the moment (the embarrassing one) he forgot which hammy was supposed to be injured. And the Oscar goes to… I’d be worried about the Dolphins if they had a QB that was any good. Henne sucks and Marshall will have little impact. The Dolphins are the worst 2-0 in the NFL right now. They played down to the level of the Bills in week One and the Vikings blew 3 great chances to score TD’s. Sanchez is CLEARLY the 2nd best QB in the division. Jets will spank the finns….MN beat them all over the place but the turnovers killed them again…. Who cares, what was Miami’s record vs New York last year and how many of those games did Revis miss. Doesn’t seem like he makes that big a difference to me. SSSSWWWWEEEEPPPPP! The Dolphins offense has not looked very good these first two weeks. The Jets are not the team to try to turn things around offensively on. That said, this is a division game and they are always tough no matter who plays. The defenses look very good and one of them will probably score…and that could be the difference in a low scoring game. Yes, the lack of training camp is responsible for Revis’s hammy and Favre’s looking uncomfortable in the offense, because no one who went to training camp pulled anything or is having trouble getting into a rhythm. Idiots. to all you mn fans in denial. the dolphns spanked you guys. we only needed to throw the ball 15 times to do it too. talkin about how henne sucks. what qb can put up great stats with only 15 attempts? you guys “blew it” 3 times? no our D spanked you 3 times (when your O has to go for it on 4th down 3 times in a game and doesnt convert, thats not you guys blowing it, thats you guys getting served) give me a break, anyone that watched that game knows the fins were handling it from drive one, they are the ones that almost blew it. soft serve sanchez is gonna look like a deer in headlights sunday night. 5 sacks. he may or may not nurse his knee and sit out a couple plays, or an entire half, or the entire season too Marshalll when covered by Cro last 2 years in AFC West= 9 targets, 7 catches, 74 yards, 1 TD in 4 games. He may have owned the Chargers, but not Cro. All this talk about Marshall is funny to even mention, the Jets D just dominated the most prolific offense in the history of the NFL circa 2007 that has only added talent to it since then(minus holdout Mankins), not even to mention the fact that the Jets themselves were minus Revis, Jenkins & Pace! BTW, Pace will be on the field this weekend so hold onto that ball tight Ronnie/Ricky! Even a busted clock is right twice a day. Last week was sanchez first time to be right this season. So he has one more chance. Gotta agree with Finfan68 on this one. Oh, one more thing, let’s see if Sanchez can make those throws when you actually have a pass rush to worry about. I think it will be a good game. We didn’t have a Moss or Welker or Marshall last year and it didn’t stop us from beating you do those comments are just garbage. Fireman Ed loves hog Bleedsgreen: they haven’t had to show anything. They have never trailed and they were on the road. At home it will be a different story. Henne had 3, 300 yard games last year. All when they were trailing. Just wait. It’s hard to prepare for an offense when all you have seen this year is vinilla. P.s. Henne’s record vs. The yets 2-0 “The Beast” will RULE Beavis….let him play! The Jets are not worried about Miami well how did Revis fare last year against us, not very good. Even Ted Ginn burned him and he was not even a real receiver. Imagine what Marshall is going to do to that terrible secondary, just watch the Ravens tape. Last year Miami physically beat up the Jets on that Sunday night, they went down the field and pushed the Jets around to win the game. Anyone that watched Hard Knocks saw that the Jets are an undisciplined team from their overeating coach to their no character players. Please put Cromartie (and even his 10 kids) out there on Marshall and blitz we will put up 40 points on you. Hey NewYorkSachexchange2010, Pace was on the field last year for both your loses to us wasn’t he??? Sanchez is a joke of a QB especially when he has pressure and he will see pressure on Sunday. Favre has seen everything and he threw 3 picks imagine what deer in the headlights Sanchez will do against our pressure and secondary. Cromartie is terrible, nice pickup there, hope your owner is not supporting all her illegitimate kids. The only thing Cromartie can cover is women. LOL. “Cromartie is built for guys likie moss and marshall big tall lanky wrs who can’t run a solid route except a streak down the sidline.” Obviously a loud-mouthed Jet fan who doesn’t have a real opinion on Marshall but would still like to throw out a generalization. If you think Marshall is someone who streaks down the sideline — and you’ve actually seen him play — then you don’t know how to make sense out of what you’re watching. Jets are now on the hook for a $16million + average cb for the rest of the year. Hamstring injuries only heal with weeks of rest…many weeks. “The Jets probably have enough on defense anyway to win the game” They were the #1 defense a year ago and couldn’t pull out a win. What changed? Oh yeah, the Phins replaced Ginn with Marshall. I’ll take that change any day. Forget it. Fish aren’t nearly as good as the Patriots and the Jets b*&%tch slapped them all over the Meadowlands. Fish got no offense. Realistically, there is no way Fish score over 10 pts vs. stout Jets defense and Henne may not live thru the entire game. How great will it be when Jason Taylor sacks henne on Sunday Night! Then we will hear ALL OF THE EXCUSES why the Fish lost the game. Rex predicts SWEEP of the Fish in 2010, lets get it started in our 2nd home in South Beach. wouldnt revis island be open instead of closed? I have to admit I was upset when Jason Allen was named a starter over Smith…but he has been awesome. Nolan’s defensive schemes have placed Miami players in position to make big plays…they already have 3 picks (should be 5 but two were called back via penalties away from the ball) they have forced 3 fumbles and recoverd 1 for a touchdown. They also DROPPED 2 pick-6s. The defense has put pressure on the QB also. Smith has talent but has never been seen as the sharpest knife in the drawer. I don’t care for Sapp (how does a DB get an offsides penalty to DQ an INT) and I hope Smith can play nickel on keller (height needed there). Both defenses have played very well. Miami has not thrown that much and I expect they will throw more often on Sunday…home field (finally) should help a little. One thing that I see coming against the Jets aggressive defense…Ronnie Brown will throw from the wildcat and catch them off guard for a big play or two. Great rivalry with some of the greatest games…hopefully there will be another epic battle with the Dolphins getting the win and finally getting some well earned respect. Missed you all last week bleedinggay, gang gay, and jcyets! Welcome back! It’s great to see all the delusional, inbred Jests fans out again! Now take your stupid asses back into hiding after the Fins show you how it’s done. You guys all jump up and talk trash this week about how the Fins are going to need more than 14 points to beat the YETS, but it seems to me that you only scored 9 points against a defense that wasn’t born in the 90′s! The Ravens shut you down, and the Dolphins are going to do the same. You think SanCHEESE’s game against the Ravens was ANEMIC (that’s for you nyYets31 – write it down) against Ray Lewis and the Ravens, wait until Dansby, Wake, MISI, and Odrick (if he’s healthy) get a hold of you! I can’t wait until the average IQ of this site goes back up when the Fins spank your sorry asses and all the Yets fans shut up and go back to masturbating with old Broadway Joe photos. Yeah, the same Broadway Joe that isn’t even drinking the local kool-aid on that chump filled OTHER team from NY. J – E – T – S SUCK SUCK SUCK!!!!!!! “By the way cro is on course for 16 picks this season lol.” And the Miami D is on pace to average 3 sacks and 3+ turnovers per game. “The dolphins weren’t showing anything offensivly the first two games because they are saving it for this week. this could be the single stupidest comment i’ve seen today. congratulations Fizz.” Yeah, it’s not like Miami did exactly that 2 years ago against NE or anything… (Don’t think it’s an accurate comment but certainly your comment is stupider than the parent.) I would think Jets fans would be prepared for the unexpected after last year. Miami hadn’t been racking up the points last year either but then Henne had a field day, Ginn had like his only successful bomb for a TD, the TEs and Bess moved the chains all night, and Ronnie slammed the Wildcat down your throat to end Monday night. Then when you stopped the Fins offensively and defensively, Sanchez played up to his true capabilities and gave us the game with a bit of help from that 3rd, nonexistent phase of the game known as special teams. The Fins can be a low scoring grinder, they can keep pace with a high flyer, they can let a team march up and down the field but never get in the end zone, they can be a front runner or come from behind. Wouldn’t make much of what you seen in two games. “See you on the field,until then,you havent earned any braggin rights.” Looks at last years Miami-Jets record, looks at this season’s records for both teams, wonders what the Jets have to be bragging about… Oh, and welcome back to you GayAsAss. Nice to see you’re still alive, and completely stupid. Where were you last week after that loss? All piled in a room with the rest of the self sucking Yets fan base I assume? It’s too bad the Jets section of this website doesn’t have as many readers as the Dolphin’s seems to. It’s just like living here in South Florida New Yorkers, you talk like you own the place, but you don’t really belong here. That’s why 95 runs North as well as South. “MN beat them all over the place but the turnovers killed them again….” Did you watch the game? The only thing that made it close was Miami’s fumbles in horrible field position. In the first half and into the 3rd, Miami would frequently get into good enough field position on 2nd and short so they would try to pound the middle because that’s what they like to do (demoralize and soften up a defense). They had already had success running to the edges and passing and their defense was in control, so they could elect to pound it and play field position. Even without much offense in the second half, all they had to do to win the game was regain the field position battle that the 2 fumbles very briefly put them behind on. At no point yesterday, could anyone sense any urgency from the Fins to put up 35 points … because they aren’t the Patriots. Miami fans are the lowest common denominator “You know damn well that the vikes were the best team on the field yesterday…” A team that gets inside the 25 yard line of the opponent 7 times and never scores a TD, a team that’s stopped twice on 4th and short to take control of the game, a team that needs to be given the ball on the 2.5 yard line to get into the end zone… such a team is never the best team on the field. How has nobody mentioned this juicy little nugget? Cromartie once gave up 18 catches to Brandon Marshall in one game. Yeah, Marshall will be just as lucky as Moss was in the second half yesterday. He must be on his knees thanking the Lord for his good fortune. Trash talk never put a W in the win collumn. Dolphins are going to win. At around 11:30 Sunday Night a reporter will ask JT what Henne looks like and Taylor will reply, “I have no idea”. i am going to laugh my ass off when the dolphins come out on the first series sunday night with henne in the shotgun and 4 wr on the field, and then just start airing it out every play. the look on rex ryans fat face with his horse teeth will be priceless. i love how all the jet fans talk about our offense where had 1 lucky game by sanchez and no running game this year also vontae jason and yeremiah will dominate sanchez who had 1 lucky game and henne will unleash like he did last year towards the end like 4 straghit 300yd games and ow many has sanchez had and also ive never seen henne throw for 70yds against a bad secondary so a fuc off pussies maybe marshall has been average with cromartie but he had a 18catch 160+yds and a TD but he who got sweeped last year did i see revis get burned by GINN i think so and now marshall good luck fagits This guy is averaging 6 catches, 62 yards and 0 TDs per game……and that includes one 46 yard catch…. I don’t see why the Jets should be concerned. dolfanSS thats great but the only time he saw henne was when he killed the jets on monday night 2 playoff appearances in 10 years….both losses and you dolfags keep running your mouths…..thats what is hilarious Hate to say it but the jets will win this game! the dolphins barely beat the horrid vikes after favre gift wrapped 4 TOs. for them. NO chance for fins to win. I hope the Jets and all their fans pass away. It doesn’t matter! We saw how Bouldin and Moss peed on that “Island”. So his hammy got bad!!! To the rest – keep saying that Fins will loose. Everybody was saying we can win with Vikes. @myrek2008 – Boldin (who’s last name has no u in it) wasn’t covered by Revis for a single snap in the Baltimore game, so I really don’t think you know what you’re talking about. Boldin went off because he was covered mainly by the rookie Kyle Wilson. Moss played well against Revis, but Revis already had his injured hammy going into last week, made it worse on that Moss TD, and now isn’t playing for two weeks. If that was a BS injury someone was trying to use for an excuse as to how he played, why would he simply not play against the other two division rivals? further, Randy Moss is a top 3 WR in the league right now, with a top 3 QB throwing to him. Miami doesn’t have either luxury. Cromartie shut down Moss in the second half, and he’ll do the same to Marshall. The Dolphins will lose because they won’t be able to put up numbers on offense. Sanchez is coming off a great week in which he threw 3 TD’s. and he STILL has no interceptions (while I know that Henne hasn’t thrown one either, he has only 1 TD between two games). The Dolphins defense has seen the Bills, who I wouldn’t expect to score more than 10 points against anybody, and the Vikings, who have terrible offensive line play and a QB who’s still shaking out some cobwebs. They also don’t have their #1 receiver (or a decent receiver to fill in for him). Am I impressed with their defense? Nope. The Offense? Definitely not. They don’t even have their bail-out package, Ted Ginn Jr, who single-handedly won the game for them in the Meadowlands last year, when the Jets were kicking the Dolphins @sses up and down the field on offense and defense. LT is averaging 6.3 yards per carry. Dustin Keller averages 14.2 yards per catch. Cromartie has 2 picks in 2 games. The Jets are ready to go. Everyone is saying “oh, the dolphins have their number,” well you think the Jets are gonna walk into a game against the team whose fans talk the MOST sh*t about the Jets of anybody in the NFL? Come on now. Both teams are gonna be amped, it’ll be fun to watch, and the Jets are coming out on top.
