I see my two favorite guys are coming back -- Scott and Mike. I like this show a lot. The promo asks the question: Who will be the next All American Handyman? which prompts me to ask...anyone know what's happened with the first winner> | |||
I never did watch the first season of this show and I like both Mike and Scott. I'll have to make it a point to DVR these shows, which I'm sure will be on at a really odd time or day. Do you know when it will start? | ||||
I just don't understand the scheduling. Labor day is Mon 9/5 so they air the first episode on Sunday 9/4 when a lot of people are with friends and family. Why would they start a new series on a holiday weekend? | ||||
Didn't it start last year on Labor day weekend too? Wasn't too impressed with last year...not expecting much from this years but will watch for Mike & Scott. | ||||
I was wondering the same thing! I know he was awarded a rather ambiguous prize (an HGTV deal or contract or something like that... but not necessarily a show)... but I had expected to hear something from him before now. | ||||
I didn't know who won, so I did some googling and found this -- from SEPTEMBER! He's certainly cute enough for TV. And HGTV could use a handyman type of show. It hasn't had one for years. But s many of us know HGTV doesn't care what we want. ======================================== 'All-American Handyman' winner Peter Wong awaits word on next step from HGTV Tuesday, September 28, 2010 By JIM DEEGAN The Express-Times The idea seemed far-fetched to Peter Wong. Four months later he's become something of a celebrity, recognized in public places and perhaps on the cusp of a television deal. Wong, 39, of Forks Township, is the nation's "All-American Handyman." He earned the title Sunday night when he was crowned winner of the reality-type show of the same name on Home & Garden Television. Wong will receive a $10,000 shopping spree at Sears, which was a major sponsor of the show, and will meet with the network's development team about possibly working with HGTV on other shows, said network spokeswoman Sheena Eustice. ((My comment: Well that's non-committal, isn't it?)) "All-American Handyman" featured 20 contestants from around the nation in different home improvement challenges, such as building decks and installing toilets. Three judges critiqued their work, including home improvement guru Mike Holmes, whose own "Holmes on Homes" show is one of HGTV's most popular programs. The judges declared Wong tops. "It's been really exciting," said Wong, who works as a senior equipment engineer for Anadigics Inc., a company in Warren, N.J., that makes semiconductors for cell phones and the cable television industry. "I have everyone and their brother e-mailing me, calling me and Facebooking me," he said. "It was really stressful during the process. But it was one of the best things I did." At the urging of his brother, Wong said, he applied in the spring to compete on the show. He hesitated, he said, because he didn't know anyone who had ever been on a TV show and figured he wouldn't have a chance. After sending producers a tape of some of the handiwork from his renovated Hoops Lane home -- a sunroom, deck, cabinetry, finished basement -- he got a call. Wong and the others taped the show during a week in June. He had to keep his secret under wraps since then.... | ||||
Why does the winner have to get a show? I figure HGTV can produce a show simply to have a show to show (hows that for double talk? But you know what I mean). It is nice to see a show where they have to use their brains and their hands... where evcerything does not depend upon the amount of money you have to purchase something. I just enjoy it for what it is and do not expect any more. | ||||
I had kind of expected that they'd use him for those in-between-the-regular-shows commercials with tips on decorating/home improvement. Or that they might have pulled him in as the regular carpenter on another show. But I guess with a non-committal prize, if it isn't right for him then he could always say no to HGTV. I had just expected something | ||||
I watched the program last year halfway through, as a handy person the challenges were unreasonable and Way too fast, I tried some challenges here, was timed by my DH and there was no way under that type of time limit,needlees to say I failed miserably, they need to put less pressure on these poor people and let them show us what they really can do!!!!!!!!!This message has been edited.

Oh, yeah. Now I remember him. Yes, he certainly is telegenic enough for a show! I think we need to lobby TPTB. ------------------------------------------------ I've been around...well, all right, I might not have been around, but I've been....nearby. -from "The Mary Tyler Moore Show" | ||||
I'm looking forward to the new show this week. Some of the projects were a bit harsh. I guess they had to do a time challendge because they have to fit all the projects to fit into an hour show. | ||||
Once again this season I'm requesting that they include a section (video) where they explain the correct methods for doing the challenges. I've never built a swinging gate either and they are pointing out flaws which I'd like to see the correct way. | ||||
I saw the show this morning on my DVR... If it's a HANDYMAN show, why are they mainly doing WOODWORKING? Both challenges were with wood and I see that the next one is too! One of the guys who was let go even said that wood wasn't his strong suit but put him to work with drywall, molding, etc... When I think of Handyman, I think of way more things than their wooden imagination. How about a bathroom or kitchen renovation, a stone or concrete walkway, etc... I guess those are too complicated for a short show? Still wondering what they will come up with next! I did enjoy seeing what their wood projects turned out to be, but there should be more variety! | ||||
There should be more variety. There was last year as they got into the rest of the shows. | ||||
I liked this show. No drama, just straightforward projects. I liked that when something was wrong, Mike and Scott told how it should have been done. I also liked that they really sat down and discussed who did a good job and who would be eliminated. Marylee | ||||
I just around to watching Sunday's episode and I think I'm through with this show. Contestants given projects with unrealistic time lines, smug condescending judges. All in all, not a very good or interesting show. | ||||
We enjoy the lack of drama plus seeing some more intense challenges. Agree, however, we really wish they'd lighten up on the time schedules and add more episodes. It's very difficult to learn the contestants' names and get behind them/root for anyone when it moves so quickly, i.e. 2 challenges and 2 bounced contestants per episode, minimum. In short, it's 2 x 2 and too much! | ||||
I think the show should be called All American DIY (do-it-yourselfer). They don't have any professional handymen on the show, just people who like to do projects in their spare time. Unless someone's a fame whore, I don't see them giving up their regular job for a chance at some guest TV spots. I think that also explains the short season. The contestants probably can't take much time off. That being said, I still enjoy the show. They've had more variety this year. It also doesn't seem like a long commercial for Sears. Yes, there's product placement but they dropped the whole "let's show off our latest tools" vibe. | ||||
They did the tool thing in one episode, Slab. Can't remember the challenge but if they weren't familiar with the neato gizmo on the Sears saw, they were at a disadvantage. Plus they've had several Sears judges along the way. At least this last one was the first episode with the throw the Sears junk in the new closet routine to finish off the challenge. Have a feeling we'll get a heavy does of Sears appliances this next week when they do their kitchens. Sounds like they define "handyman" for purposes of the show as a non-professional, DIY type. It was obvious last year the winner wasn't going to give up a good job to throw his hat into the HGTV rind. It'd be nice if they did something, however. Otherwise, what did they really win? (Yeah, I know, some cash or gift cards and bragging rights. Nice but it's not an HGTV series like DS.)This message has been edited. Last edited by: bballdays, | ||||
I can't believe the winner of this season was the person who, in every episode, was identified as the person who knew how to make the final results "look pretty" while the underlying structure and build may have been substandard. Really??? Make-it-right-Mike Holmes selects the person whose linen closet trim would have hidden an improper header support? He's our role model for the kind of handyman we should hire and/or aspire to be???? I'm disappointed. Allison and Shaun did better work than Jared, based on what we saw in the content of the episodes. I agree with other posters that each episode passed too quickly and showed us too little detail. I also think, in the end, these folks were held to a general contractor standard, beyond a handyman level of detail. I hire a handyman for small jobs, and generally don't impose time contraints like these challenges presented. I always learn something from these programs, however. I would like a little less focus on the drama and more on conveying construction and remodeling tips and techniques. Like door hinge placement 7" from the top and 10" from the bottom-- that's the kind of thing I want these shows to illustrate to me.This message has been edited. Last edited by: Lucyr2, | ||||
Aren't Mike & Scott both Canadian? The irony of the show's title always befuddled me. | ||||
"All-American" anything reeks of an earlier time when the term meant white, southern US male, IMHO. I don't care for it at all. | ||||
I was blindsided by that one, too. Shaun was the best overall candidate. But, I got it wrong last year, when I thought the fireman had the best skills. They way they were talking up Allison's kitchen, even though she royally screwed up the sink placement, seemed to be an indication that they were pressured to have her win at any cost. | ||||
Don't really understand your post, Slab. Pressured by who? If you believe it's like DS and the winner's predetermined, they were pressured to give Jared the trophy. WRT Allison, she won the shed challenge and they said she had the fewest mistakes on the kitchen challenge. We didn't care about the sink placement - in fact, we believed it's location optimized the counterspace (IIRC) and would have made it easier to work on the plumbing. Out of the 3 kitchens, I preferred Allison's. Shaun's appliance placement was unbalanced. IMHO, Jared was lazy when he decided to simply reduce the number of cabinets instead of utilizing all of the space and either adapting a cabinet to fit or building something to fill the extra slot. Got the impression they considered the entire competition when judging instead of the candidates' progress and improvement. We wanted them to wipe the slate clean at the beginning of the finale and award it to the winner of those last two challenges.This message has been edited. Last edited by: SurfNow, | ||||
I'm new at this...I have a man who I'd like to see enter into the next American Handyman contest. How does he enter? email@example.com
| ||||
I have a man that I'd like to see compete in the American Handyman contest. He was laid off last January 2nd and has been doing odd jobs to support his family. I believe he has talent to do ANY type of home repair/remodeling. How and when does he apply? | ||||
DrJ, try allamericanhandymancasting.com or do an online search on the show name (comma) Casting or Casting Call. IIRC, they shot this in April this year (spring break) after wrapping the casting in January. They held 6 open calls in major cities. Don't know your location but you might also check out Canada's version, too. Good Luck! | ||||

Stiffness and softness as required. That's the principle behind the dynamic engine mount system now being offered for the first time as part of the Sport Chrono Package Turbo. Essentially, it's an electronically controlled system for controlling the stiffness of the engine mounts.
The engine is bolted to the body using two mounts and follows Newton's law of inertia, namely that a body will continue to move in a uniform straight line unless it is made to change its direction by a force acting upon it.
Put more simply: when you are driving into a bend, the vehicle will follow your steering but, at first, the mass of the engine won't. This means that the rear of the vehicle is pushed outwards because of the inert forces from the engine's mass acting on it.
The dynamic engine mount system minimises this effect. The steering angle longitudinal and lateral acceleration values are constantly recorded by sensors and the stiffness of the two engine mounts is changed automatically according to the driving style. This is achieved using a magnetisable (magnetorheological) fluid and an electrically generated magnetic field. The magnetisable particles align with each other and the fluid's viscosity changes. This alters the stiffness and absorption of the engine mounts: softer for greater comfort and less vibration when driving normally, harder for a more direct driving feel when driving more sportily.
The dynamic engine mount system also reduces the vertical oscillations of the engine when accelerating under full load. The result: greater and more uniform force on the rear axle, increased traction and better acceleration.
All this means two things: perceptibly more stable handling under load change conditions and in fast corners and a step closer to the ultimate sporty drive – combined with enhanced levels of comfort.

ST. JOHNSBURY A private Vermont high school in St. Johnsbury is planning to open a campus in South Korea.
St. Johnsbury Academy was the first American school chosen to operate at the Jeju Global Education City, school officials said Thursday.
The education city is being built on an island off the southern coast of South Korea and was established by the Korean government to help meet an increasing demand in that country for overseas studies and language training.
St. Johnsbury Academy was selected from schools throughout the U.S. Its scheduled to open in the fall of 2015.
The international school for grades 4-12 will offer an American-style education with curriculum much like what is offered in St. Johnsbury to students from the around the world, said John Suitor, the academys acting director of marketing and communications. Officials envision most of the students will be Asian and the school will be staffed with faculty from around the world.
We are confident that St. Johnsburys comprehensive curriculum and personalized approach to instruction, which has been so attractive to international students for decades, will make St. Johnsbury Academy Jeju a successful addition to the global education city, Academy Headmaster Tom Lovett said.MORE IN Vermont NewsMONTPELIER A 51-year-old East Barre woman is the latest winner of the Vermont Department of...

I totally agree with the last few posts! I'd also like to see an emphasis on network setups (which will apply to the desktop as well as Android), such as communal files on a NAS, 'cherry-picked' for various MM DB. In such a setup, settings such as tags, ratings, playcounts etc. would be more practically stored in the DB than as metadata. However, I know I personally would want to select which files I control the metadata for, and which I simply store data in the DB for, thus allowing another account to control the metadata for other files without affecting how my own DB is displayed. It would be a kind of permissions feature, perhaps with a master user option.
Also on the subject of network/NAS setup, it would be great to see the app with on-the-fly streaming features, similar to Skifta, Orb, Plex etc.

Exploring the Boo scripting language
Boo is a scripting language tailor-made for Mono and .NET. This haunting mixture of Python and C# may be just what you need to get started with the .NET framework.
Rodrigo Barreto de Oliveira was frustrated; he couldn't find a programming language that was suitable for his next project. Python didn't have the kind of static type checking he needed, and he would have preferred better .NET integration. C# was well integrated with .NET, but it required too much typing. These disappointments led Rodrigo to develop his own scripting language. His new language would be Python-based, and it would rely on the Common Language Infrastructure (or CLI) and the Dotnet framework. He spiced the results with a couple of C# and Ruby design principles and finally came up with the object-oriented Boo [1] language, which is available for Linux thanks to the Mono environment. Saying Hello Because the ubiquitous "Hello World" with its print("Hello World") line is almost too trivial, Listing 1 gives you a GTK# variant on the theme.

I have triplet sisters, so I bought 4 of these rings as sister rings...and the pictures on here made them look so elegant. then when I got all the rings, I was so disappointed. I am embarrassed to give the rings to my sisters and I dont want mine either for two reasons. cheap looking and it is not a true size 9. I have bought other things on here.....I feel leary about continuing to buy on here. I have just ordered a bed set and we will see.....................otherwise it is all going back.
This ring is nice but after a while it does turn your finger green
I normally do not wear such a thick band, but because it is cut open, it didn't bother me. I've received compliments on the ring, looks much more expensive then it is. I've been wanting something like this for quite sometime and am very happy with my purchase.
I'm so glad I purchased this ring however; I didn't purchase it for me and wish I would have. It is simply amazing! I put it on and didn't want to take it off! Gosh, it's just so beautiful I can recommend this ring high enough. Whether you're purchasing for yourself or someone else you won't be disappointed. Truly exquisite! Highly recommend this ring! One very satisfied customer!
It is a really nice ring for the price. It looks much more expensive than it is.
Love it, Love it ring fits and looks great may need more in the future
I love this ring, it so confortable, I wear it daily, its a good quality ring that I would recommend to anyone.
Ring is true to size. I am very happy with this purchase!
Very pretty ring. Great details. It does run a bit small, though. I usually wear a 6 and I had to exchange it for a 7.
Inside comfort cut and edges well made! Beautiful and intricate for subtle dazzle without stones. I Enjoy wearing it when I'm in a 'gold' mood~;0)

Purcell: Odes, Vol. 7 – Yorkshire Feast Song
Archive Service; also available on CDS44031/8
Download currently discounted
Purcell: The Complete Odes & Welcome Songs
8CDs Boxed set (at a special price)
Movement 1: Symphony Swifter, Isis, swifter flow
Movement 2: Land him safely on her shore
Movement 3: Hark, hark! just now my listening ears
Movement 4: Welcome, dread Sir, to town
Movement 5: But with as great devotion meet
Movement 6: The King whose presence like the Spring
Movement 7: Then since, Sir, from you all our blessings do flow
Next a trio and chorus alternate phrases with Welcome, dread Sir, to town (with London referred to as Augusta) before the bass has a fine recitativo section But with as great devotion meet, full of graphic word-painting. The lilting Your Augusta he charms is introduced by a solo tenor and taken up by the chorus, with a delightfully unexpected tonal shift at Who tells her the King keeps his court here tonight before another short instrumental ritornello rounds off the movement. The duet The King whose presence is underpinned by a gently running ground bass and touching suspensions, leading to the final chorus. Here the principal manuscript source is incomplete, with over half of the inner parts missing: for this recording these have been completed by Robert King. The phrase May no harsher sounds eer invade your blest ears is particularly notable, with its intense chromaticism prefiguring some of the finest moments of Dido and Aeneas.

Sore throats can be painful and annoying. Fortunately, most sore throats are caused by a minor illness and go away without medical treatment.
Several conditions can cause a sore throat.
Sore throats may be caused by a viral illness, such as:
A bacterial infection may also cause a sore throat. This can occur from:
A sore throat that lasts longer than a week is often caused by irritants or an injuries, such as:
Treatment for a sore throat depends on the cause. You may be able to use home treatment to obtain relief.
Because viral illnesses are the most common cause of a sore throat, it is important not to use antibiotics to treat them. Antibiotics do not alter the course of viral infections. Unnecessary use of an antibiotic exposes you to the risks of an allergic reaction and antibiotic side effects, such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, rashes, and yeast infections. Antibiotics also may kill beneficial bacteria and encourage the development of dangerous antibiotic-resistant bacteria. For sore throats caused by strep, treatment with antibiotics may be needed.
Check your symptoms to decide if and when you should see a doctor.

Power Adaptors
When you are in the market for a new power adaptor, we have you covered at Home Security Store. As with our other power supplies, adaptors in this section also come with warranties and lifetime tech support. Depending upon which power adaptor ordered, we also ship within the same business day and offer a limited return policy.
Select from top-quality brand names like Atrix and Vitek, both of which have gained good reputations within the consumer electronics industry. All of our power adaptors are 12-volt DC with either 1.0A, 2.0A or 500 mA. See the manufacturer's instructions on the electronic device you intend to use the adaptor with in order to determine which power adaptor is best for your needs. Remember that our tech support team is also on call to answer any further questions about our power supplies.
With plug-n-play simplicity, our adaptors can be used to power an array of electronic devices including, but not limited to, DVRs, intercoms, base chargers and closed circuit television monitors. Although power adaptors typically come with these devices at purchase, our customers sometimes need to replace misplaced, damaged or lost adaptors. Our power adaptors may also be used to power non-security devices, such as laptop computers, cordless phone chargers and a wide array of other devices needing a DC power source. Although we offer fast shipping on all of our items, including power adaptors, it is always a good idea to keep one or two extra adaptors on hand just in case.

Congrats Heat... Spurs r done.
Congrats Heat... Spurs r done.
spurs choking big time.. didn't expect themm to beat themselves
2014 draft. that is all
Manu with the big air ball. Time to hang it up.
Favorites won. Feeling so bad for Duncan.
I'd like to congratulate Chris Bosh, like I did last year, for winning it all. He played the game of his life in game 6, and here he stopped Duncan's attempt to tie it at the end. Played a great game against Duncan in general. It's terrible scrutiny to be under, to play for Miami. A lot of people said this thing wouldn't work. I have said before that they need a big man. But they have made it work. They proved everybody wrong.
Pop threw this series! Love him as a coach. A clear HOF coach, but he fucked his own team up. In Game 6, he benched Duncan in the last two Heat possessions which cost them two offensive rebounds. In Game 7, he refused to bench Green and Manu who threw this game to the Heat!
Still so salty right now...
that was frustrating, Spurs had a terrible game and still almost took it.....
Lost in a Roman...wilderness of pain
And all the children are insane
What did i say again? Heat will win the next 2 games. And they just did. Congrats to them.
Chris Bosh though will get another ring without doing much this game. Future Hall of Famer? LOL
Follow me on Twitter - @RRyan22
It's so hard to cheer for the Heat. The Spurs didn't play their best game and almost won....but basically LeBron beat the Spurs these last 2 games. I hate the way the Heat play. It is the worst team basketball I've ever seen a championship team play. They are so overdependent on LeBron, and the rest of their team is such brutal garbage, that it's so difficult to see this rag-tag group of mostly losers win rings.
I have nothing but respect for LeBron. It would be a complete travesty if such a great player didn't win some rings...but man I fucking hate the Heat. Ugly basketball. Worse personalities. A fake city, with fake fans...seriously, who fucking leaves early in any playoff game, let alone a potential championship game. If I were watching Toronto possibly losing a game 6, I'd still stay til the end to watch it happen, and wouldn't want to miss the trophy presentation even if it was for the other team.
Also, even though they played well after it, this series was basically lost when Parker hurt his leg. The Spurs need some perimeter help, because their PG is the only guy on the entire team who's a legit threat with the ball in his hands. Almost everyone else is effective only as a spot-up shooter. Neal gets way too trigger-happy for his handles to help. Manu is fading too much to be counted on nightly like his old self. Kawhi is still growing his game and isn't at that level yet.
133 days to go.
I'm looking forward to the 2022-2023 season. The Raptors should be ready to make some noise then. Maybe they can draft one of LeBron's kids?

A graphic tour of how we humans came to be, through the eyes of space aliens Bloort and Prince Floorsh
Making science more accessible in this way is remarkable and entertaining while being informative; I'll be looking for the book in stores. Thanks for this great look into the book!
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisWonderful job of explaining various models and aspects of evolution but somehow comic books seem a more appropriate medium to explain creationism, you know , magic and superheroes, that sort of thing.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisI really enjoy going through the cartoons. They are very informative and educational.
We originated from bacteria. They are still within and part of us. We are the number one organism because, among other things, of a special gene we possess, that is , FOXP-2.
Magic man done it?
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisDid you intend for all three statements to be self-referencing?
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisYeah letxequalx, fantasy explains creationism so much better than say defying the laws of thermodynamics dreaming up Piltdown man.
An inquest into Piltdown Man doesn't seem to offer much cheer to those of us who think that science is a legitimate enterprise that has drawn a credible chart of human evoltuion. Anyone conversant with the Piltdown history will readily, if not eagerly, agree that many of the researchers shaped reality to their heart's desire, protecting their theories, their careers, their reputations, all of which they lugged into the pit with them. All of the suspects were long dead before the assesments of their culbability began. Their relatives, friends, and admirers may have been embarrassed into shame or stroked into resentment, but that seems a small price to pay for all the fun. Less fun is the more important part: what the Piltdown case signifies.
The resolution of the question of whether science does map the truth of reality or whether it is just another myth has consaequences for us in our daily lives. In the 1920s, fundamentalists wanted to outlaw the teaching of evolution in public schools; today, they want to give creationism equal time with evolution.
For close to 40 years, Eoanthropus dawsoni, a.k.a. Piltdown Man, was taught as fact. His australopithicine and pithecanthropine relatives are still taught as fact. If they are really as mythical as he was, then it seems the just thing to do would be to give equal time to comparing facts or myths. If science is nothing more than myth, then biblical stories are agreeable alternatives and render, serendipitously, more wholesome ethics.
The paleontologist Earnest Hooton pushed this Piltdown case aside as unique, but the creationists pulled it back as typical of what evolutionists always do: deceiving themselves and others by turning apes into people.
Talk about fantasy. Evolutionists dont need a comic book. They are doing just fine all on their own.
Dude, are you writing from *inside* a comic book? Is it a Jack Chick?
Listen: A hoax does not invalidate all science! You're saying that the existence of the Piltdown Man as a hoax somehow refutes the Scientific Theory of Evolution? I suppose then that Raelian's Eve invalidates Genetics as well? And the Fiji Mermaid invalidate Marine Biology? And the Balloon-Boy invalidates Aviation? And the Platypus invalidates... wait, Platypuses are real...
The cartoon should be coloured! Black and white is not very interesting for kids or young adults ( or me) |:o)
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisThe lesson to be learned from Piltdown Man is not that science is infallible, but that mistakes and even outright fraud are eventually detected and corrected, even though it may take 40 years or more to do so. Religiously inspired "theories" such as creationism have no such self correcting mechanism, their proponents can go on teaching nonsense for thousands of years under a doctrine of infallibility.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisI agree! Comics will make it easier for veryone to understand evolution in a very simple, attractive way. Thank you for showing this book.

"The success of Darwinism was accompanied by a decline in scientific integrity....I do not contest the fact that the advent of the evolutionary idea, due mainly to the Origin, very greatly stimulated biological research. But it appears to me that owing, precisely to the nature of the stimulus, a great deal of this work was directed into unprofitable channels or devoted to the pursuit of will-o'-the-wisps....Darwin himself considered that the idea of evolution is unsatisfactory unless its mechanism can be explained. I agree, but since no one has explained to my satisfaction how evolution could happen I do not feel impelled to say that it has happened. I prefer to say that on this matter our information is inadequate."
One may be tempted to ask what creationist wrote that comment. The answer is, no creationist wrote it. Prof. W. R. Thompson, FRS wrote it in the "Introduction" to one of the 1956 Editions of Charles Darwin's "...Origin of Species..." Creationists, however, did have some influence on the issue. The members of the British organization, Evolution Protest Movement, obtained permission to reprint the "Introduction" in booklet form in 1967. The quoted material is on pages 17, 16 and 12.
What a great idea. Scientific understanding in the States can use all the help it can get. So awesome.
Producing a cartoon comic book to teach a scientific subject seems to me to say more about the readership rather than the subject. My feeling is that it owes more to propaganda and brainwashing (always assuming that brains are involved)than teaching. Next on the list will be 'Brain surgery' by comic strip, I look forward to that one.

That decline was more a matter of joining a new and popular club, and the subscription to that club meant the loss of objectivity in the relevant fields. If you were not a member you found yourself marginalized by your peers, a death nail in the scientific community. Science today is slowly regaining the objectivity and that 'inadequate' information is slowly turning against Darwin. We continue along the same path, but now stagger rather than stride, but still we have no idea how life actually started, or how the various elements came together (amino acids into proteins, where the machinery to convert light energy into cellulose, etc)that are so essential to life.
Bill Crofut, I can't imagine why you'd even bother using that quote from 1956 - we've learned quite a bit about the mechanism since then. You might as well go back to 1556 and quote someone who says that there's no evidence that the earth revolves around the sun.

COLONIE - A man already caught up in accusations he abused puppies is now facing new charges of animal abuse.
Colonie police say Anthony Walker of Albany left four dogs locked in a U-Haul truck in the frigid weather. They say the dogs were emaciated when they found them.
Walker is the same man who was charged earlier this month in connection with three puppies found injured near some railroad tracks in Albany. One of those dogs died and another lost a paw.
Now police say Walker is responsible for the dogs found locked in the cargo space of a rental truck parked at the Super 8 motel on Central Avenue.
The dogs were taken to the Capital District Animal Emergency Clinic for treatment.

First of all, I was thrilled to discover Accordance for iOS this morning - I have been looking forward to this for a long time. I have been a long-time fan of Accordance for the Mac - one of the best Mac apps I have used. The integration with the web store and sync with the desktop version is great!!
I skimmed the feature requests but didn't see anything about varying font sizes. If I understand correctly, you can choose one font size for texts and one for reference tools. However, I would like to choose different font sizes for different texts, just as on the Mac. Basically, I want to be able to display Hebrew with a larger font size compared to other texts. On the iPhone, it is a bit more critical to maximise the use of the screen real estate.
Great work!

Greek and especially Hebrew are automatically scaled up from the font size you choose, but individual settings for different texts are not high on the priority list for new features.

I would like to see the Helena font scaled up a bit more. It seems contracted compared to Verdana, the text I use for English versions. I understand that an option for individual font sizes for each module is a bit much.
Thanks. The app works really well. My hard copy of the Bible doesn't go to church with me anymore.

Please add option to scale user notes font sizes. I used 14pt font size in my notes in Accordance for Mac. After syncing them to my iPhone 4 my notes looked like for the blind person very large letters and just a few lines fit in the split screen. I went through almost all of my notes on the Mac and resized font to Verdana 12pt. Spent almost whole day! Now it's hard to read on my MacBook Pro 17" hi-res screen, but they are still little bit too large on my iPhone. Simple scaling would have solved this problem without any need for font size change on the Mac.

I would like to be able to resize the fonts in the instant-detail pop-up screens. When I access these using the Greek or Hebrew Bibles, the fonts appear to be 21 or 24 point. (I keep my texts at 16 point.) I would like to be able to see more information quicker in the pop-up screen (not have to scroll).

For the White House going after presumptive nominee now Mitt Romney vice president Joseph Biden will be giving a speech that targets governor -- on foreign policy today.
-- -- say that governor Romney would basically take the United States back to the policies of president George W.
Bush here's what met Ronnie says that -- -- administration would be -- We will stop the days of apologizing for success at home and never again I apologize for him.
That reaction is yeah now my panel -- who is national Press Secretary to president Obama's reelection campaign going -- good to have you here.
Good morning Martha thanks for having -- aren't active from Mitt Romney at a moment and got -- quote from -- the campaign trail and that will clearly be one of the issues that comes up between these two men a question of whether or not President Obama has apologized.
For the United States when he has traveled abroad and whether or not met Ronnie believes that -- the White House and and America must take the lead and be in front.
On a number of these issues what say you.
Well a lot on the apologizing front every independent fact checker has rated that is absolutely false and this is what -- heard from governor Romney and foreign policy a lot of chest thumping a lot of tough talk.
But not a lot of specific plants that fact as a commander in chief only gets one chance to get it right.
But he's been all over the map on the key foreign policy challenges.
Of our time it's been out for and against setting a timetable to withdraw our troops from Afghanistan for and against enforcing.
Our trade laws against China.
When it came to Osama bin Laden a few years ago he said he wouldn't move heaven and earth to do it and then when the president authorized the mission to get bin Laden.
He said that any president would do -- We expect to -- you know -- in some of -- excerpts that have come out this speech from Vice President Biden.
That he will say that that governor Romney's national security policy would return us to the past that we have worked so hard to move behind.
How how -- -- where does that come on how to how to you that.
Well I think on several fronts first of all governor Romney certainly has a Cold War that mentality -- you heard in in that discussion.
Over Russia but the fact is that he's made clear that he would have left our troops indefinitely in Iraq ten to 30000 troops.
It while he's been all over the map on withdrawing our troops from Afghanistan is certainly suggested that he would leave.
Our troops there indefinitely when he hasn't outlined a mission for them he's enlisted many of the same advisors that were the architects.
Of the Iraq War.
And he suggested that we should go it alone.
In the world that that the United States should act unilaterally -- rather than.
Rally the world around important international missions that are critical.
To American security and to global security.
Yeah I think who would it would -- you know looking at some of Mitt Romney's close and I is that the world is better off when America takes the lead.
And the president has made it clear that he likes to do things you know sort of in it and have more collective effort.
Yeah I mean that that accident that's a substantial debate between these two -- whether or not you want to see America out front as the -- superpower and that that's a position that.
The world expects us to take.
Because we have done -- so successful in so many roles in in history and that is the president not comfortable -- that position.
Wolf will the president believes that America is stronger when our alliances with our allies our secure allies that were alienated during.
The bush administration and governor Romney has suggested he would go a similar.
Unilateral -- And as -- a quick -- before we gonna we're gonna hear from that the Romney campaign and get their thoughts on -- this a new job but from a performance poll shows Joseph Biden have 42% approval.
Hillary Clinton's at 67%.
Approval -- there's always a lads you know discussion.
Over whether or not Hillary Clinton would be potentially moved out of her role -- into the VP well on that ticket to those numbers make that any more likely.
You know I I think we need her serving as as secretary of state.
The fact is whether it's President Obama or Vice President Biden.
The -- the choice in November will be between -- administration that brought us back from the brink of another depression we're losing 750000.
Jobs a month.
We've now created more than four million private sector jobs the vice president will sum up.
The administration and in one brief sentence.
Today which is that GM is alive and Osama bin -- on -- Dad and I will see Mexican visitors stay a little bit longer if that's a planned -- involved thank you so much good to see is always.
Thanks for them now for the --

Secret Court Ruled in 2011 That NSA Surveillance Is Unconstitutional
The Electronic Frontier Foundation has been fighting the federal government in court to release to the public an 86-page opinion of the secret Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC), issued in 2011. According to that opinion, the surveillance conducted by the National Security Administration is unconstitutional under the FISA Amendments Act.
On August 21, the government was ordered by the court to release the opinion, one year after the EFF announced that it would be filing a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit against the Justice Department in pursuit of "any written opinions or orders from the FISC discussing illegal government surveillance, as well as any briefings to Congress about those violations."

It's got pros and cons
I just snagged this top today at my local store, mainly to help up my total to the minimum required to spend my virtual dollars. What I like about the top are the color palette and print--it looks like nothing else in my closet and is adorable with dark jeans and a velvet blazer. The fit was less boxy than I would have guessed from the photo, so while I don't plan to wear it alone, it would look fine that way. Fit is true, too, by the way. What bugs me about it, though, is that there's a seam going straight across the collarbone, and all the fabric above it is sheer, while the fabric below is lined with a black stretchy shell. In the photo, you can't really tell this, and it makes the whole bra situation tricky. I hate strapless bras, but bra straps definitely show through that sheer fabric. I tried wearing a black cami under it to camouflage bra straps, but it just looks odd. Since I plan to wear this under jackets, it wasn't a deal-breaker, but I always find it annoying when TL does tops that make it impossible to wear normal bras with.

Cute holiday top
I personally did not like the loose boxy fit of this top. I opted to purchase it two sizes too small and have it fit like a normal shirt. My size looked super unflattering and swallowed me up. It is cute for holiday gatherings and other seasonal events. Probably will not get much wear out of this top. Not my favorite.
December 8, 2012
Nice top
The colors are very nice, fit is a little boxy, but not bad if you like that kind of fit. Looks really nice with black pants or with jeans.

Wonderful top!
I really love this top. The pattern is fun, and I was surprised as to the quality. I like that the top has some thickness to it, so it is not too sheer, with the exception of the intentionally sheer yoke. Also, the length on this is perfect. I purchased an xs, and I like that it comes down some. I think it's more flattering that way and also gives some material to blouse the top a little if you wish to tuck it into pants or a skirt.
