Book Review: STORY/TIME: The Life of an Idea by Bill T. Jones
by Katie C. Sopoci Drake
STORY/TIME is a three-part book that also serves as a companion piece to the Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane Dance Company's live production of Story/Time that will appear at New York Live Arts on November 4-8, 11-15 at 7:30pm. More information: http:www.newyorklivearts.org
After the lengthy acknowledgements to many honored academics, distinguished artists, and an impressive list of foundations and trusts, the first thing to strike the reader soundly across the brain is a preface that warns you that what you are about to experience is really a structured event, "a performance yearning to be a document, a book" that serves as a "record of a needy, angry, and confused man" with a need "for a tradition, an intellectual home". After a description of the book's layout, a hint at how you might best take in the information (an "invitation to play" or "reorder if you will"), and properly braced with what contradictions may present themselves, you delve into the first of three sections of the book.
This first section, titled "Past Time" plunges you into Jones' experience within the 1970's dance scene. You witness him meeting with the ideas of John Cage, the growing importance of his ideas on Jones' own artistic inquiries, and are confronted with random stories and images that evoke place and history. Jones' feelings of exclusion from the intellectual community of scholars and artists of the time surfaces within the narrative providing fire behind Jones' evidently voracious appetite for inquiry and the contradiction within himself between "comfort" and "provocation" within his own methods of creating live performance that "reveal the most personal aspects" of himself.
The second section, "Story/Time", "a response to John Cage's 1958 Indeterminacy," is laid out like a score with dashes and brackets marking the time and random order (with the help of www.random.org) of 60 one-minute stories. These nuggets of prose, with words that are nudged and pulled apart on the paper to mark the passage of time, span the range of Jones' own history and memories. Some having to do with art, some with family, some with characters from his life, certain stories swim back to the surface after their initial appearance in the first section of the book "Past Time". Here they are washed clean of their previous context, and elevated to the status of art.
"Story/Time" begs to be read out loud. At the end of the previous section, "Past Time", Jones gives us hints at his approach in performance which certainly invites the reader to try one or all stories in their own tongue. 17 unsentimental performance images accompany this leg of the journey giving the viewer a setting for the stories and reminds us of Jones' questioning of his own interpretation of Cage's theories assigning "a higher priority to the author's intent or choices of presentation than to the audience's capacity to interpret that intent."
In "With Time", the final section of the book, you read Jones' thoughts on the direction of dance as an art-form with the benefit of having read about both his own journey towards this end and experiencing a sample of what his deep artistic inquiry has rendered. In it, he offers yet another twist in his journey in the form of praise he received from his niece in 1999 after a performance of We Set Out Early… Visibility Was Poor. Jones reveals that at that moment, she had represented another "community I had — justifiably or not — felt estranged from." This revelation brackets a series of "provocations" that keep circling back around within the book: detachment from emotion in art, exclusion from intellectual society, estrangement from community, the class context of searching for identity versus the search for meaning, the role of history and personal experience in experimental art.
In a final interview with Laura Kuhn, Executive Director of the John Cage Trust, John Cage, Jones' "icon of modernism", is partially laid bare. Kuhn relates a story of Cage being so detached from society that he didn't realize Jesse Jackson was black. The story doesn't seek to embarrass the man, but to reveal a consequence of a philosophy that separates the artist from society. Directly after the interview, Jones identifies his desire to reconcile the community he grew up in with the artistic community he is immersed in and the contradiction of "choosing to engage seriously with such a socially 'unengaged' artist who seems to hard back to an era when the only artists who mattered where male and white. And yet engage with John Cage I must."
As a written document, this book is clearly organized, quickly read, and dense with musings that can be dissected by dancers and non-dancers alike. As a piece of art, it is both process and product in one. The engagement and participation of audience member might be enhanced if the book is read and discussed in a group setting which makes me curious to see how it will fit with the live performance and how many people will pair the two. The experiment in creation, design and performance certainly poses many questions that, identifying as a dance artist, I found myself musing in the context of own work. Likewise, as an academic, I found I was concurrently dissecting the book for use in a future class. I found the "provocation" of personal context and its link to the audience's experience of art particularly poignant when my thoughts swung back around to a quotation of Michel Auder which was, perhaps, not so randomly selected to end "Story/Time": "'You motherfucker! You were thinking about yourself while watching my work!'".

Contributor Katie C. Sopoci Drake, MFA, GL-CMA, is a Washington D.C. based professional dancer, choreographer and teacher specializing in Laban-based contemporary dance. Holding an MFA in Dance from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, a Graduate Certification in Laban Movement Analysis from Columbia College – Chicago, and a BA in Theatre/Dance with a minor in Vocal Performance from Luther College, Sopoci Drake continues to take classes in as many techniques and practices as she can handle to inform her work and life as a curious mover.
Katie has been on faculty at The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, Nova Southeastern University, Miami Dade College-Wolfson, Miami Dade College-Kendall, Carthage College, and Lawrence University. She currently guest teaches and gives masterclasses around the D.C. area and wherever her travels take her.
As a performer, Sopoci is described as a "sinuous, animal presence of great power; watching her dance is a visceral experience." (Third Coast Digest). Company credits include Mordine and Company Dance Theater of Chicago, Momentum Dance Company of Miami, Wild Space Dance Company of Milwaukee, and Rosy Simas Danse of Minneapolis. Katie has also made appearances an an independent artist with many companies including Brazz Dance, Your Mother Dances, The Florentine Opera, and The Minnesota Opera.
Katie's choreography, described as "a beautiful marriage between choreography, music and poetry" (On Milwaukee), arises from her fascination with the idiosyncrasies of daily life, and the flights of fancy that arise from ordinary inspirations. Her work has been performed by numerous companies, colleges and studios across the country and her latest collaboration, Telephone Dance Project, will take her to states up and down the East Coast while investigating long-distance creation and connecting far-flung dance communities.
Book Review: Ballerina – by Edward Stewart
Reading Ballerina by Edward Stewart is like snacking on too many Girl Scout Cookies. There's something sentimental about them, and it's so hard to just have one. Chapter after juicy (and sometimes eye-roll-inducing) chapter, I couldn't put this novel down.
Ballerina was originally published in 1979. The latest edition comes in e-book format from Open Road Publications. At 500 pages, it's a quick read with plenty of theatrics. A few of the forty-nine chapters seem like separate episodes in the often scattered plot, and as a whole the book has the slightly dated feel of a yellowing Polaroid photo. If you're looking for a good soap-opera-type travel read, though, this definitely fits the bill.
The plot follows dancers Stephanie Lang and Christine Avery from their audition for the country's top ballet school at age sixteen into their early twenties as they navigate promising careers, romance, and friendship. Steph's overbearing mother Anna and the manipulative artistic director Marius Volmar are in turns detestable and pitiable as secondary characters, twisting and prodding Steph and Chris for personal gain.
The world Stewart creates is one of catty backstabbing and sleeping around—think Dancers, The Turning Point, or Center Stage. Despite the book's shortcomings, the intrigue of the insider-outsider dance world makes Ballerina a readable jaunt for dancers and non-dancers alike. I rate it three stars out of five for exciting drama but lack of depth, and PG-13 for some strong language and few graphic scenes—it's not a novel for the Girl Scout-age set.
Book Review: Dance Medicine Head to Toe: A Dancer's Guide to Health
Judith Peterson knows dancers' health. She served the Pennsylvania Ballet for ten years as attending physician and is currently a member of the International Association of Dance Medicine and Science, the American Medical Association, and the American Academy of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation.
Her book covers the whats, hows, and whys of anatomy that are most relevant to dancers. The functional descriptions of each body structure (spinal regions, cardiovascular system, hips, knees, ankles, feet, and toes) are thorough enough to be really useful but presented simply. Most importantly, each chapter includes a bulleted summary and practical exercises for each body region. Dance Medicine Head to Toe makes it easy to see why anatomical knowledge is important to dancers and how they can put that knowledge into practice.
An especially important feature of this book (aside from the high quality and effective presentation of the information, of course) is the emphasis Peterson places on getting help from a qualified dance medicine professional rather than trying to ignore pain or "tough it out," such unfortunately common practices in the competitive fields of professional and pre-professional dance. Cultivating a dance culture where it's understood to be OK to get help for injuries is critical to the advancement of our art and expansion of our field.
In addition to the valuable information provided in Peterson's text, the book is peppered with diagrams and dance photographs. Some are quite helpful, but many could benefit from clearer labeling or simply be omitted.
Succinct, comprehensive, and conversational, Dance Medicine Head to Toe should be part of every dancer's and teacher's library.

Review – Dance Class 5: To Russia, With Love
In the fifth graphic story in the Papercutz "Dance Class" series, we follow dance friends Alia, Lucie, and Julie to St Petersburg, where they and the rest of Miss Anne's students perform The Nutcracker with a group of Russian dancers. This book is as colorful, funny, and sweet as the first four "Dance Class" graphic novels.
While the Russia trip is the focus of the story, there's plenty of humor at home before the girls leave. The dance dads have their day in Dance Class 5: Lucie's dad performs a brilliant sissone ouverte while trying to save a batch of crepes, and Julie's dad snores his way through a family trip to the ballet, to Mom's great embarrassment.
Abroad, flirtatious Alia becomes frustrated with the Russian boys' insensitivity…or is it just the language barrier? "To Russia, With Love" closes with some casting surprises for Miss Anne before the curtain goes down and the students head home again.0
Book Review: Balanchine: Russian-American Ballet Master Emeritus
In Balanchine: Russian-American Ballet Master Emeritus, Reine Duell Bethany gives young adults (dancers and nondancers alike) a highly readable, thought-provoking, and inspiring biography of the twentieth-century choreographer. Over ten chapters, Bethany walks the reader thoughtfully through Balanchine's early life in Russia, his work for Diaghilev, and his eventual establishment in the US as the head of New York City Ballet and the School of American Ballet. The author traces Balanchine's personal history and relationships, his development as a choreographer, and his work and personality as a businessman and international cultural ambassador. Throughout, adequate yet succinct historical, cultural, and social context is provided, making Ballet Master Emeritus as useful and appealing to young people interested in history or politics as ballet. For creative types, Reine Duell Bethany's poignant, inspiring writing reinforces the importance of such qualities as faith, sacrifice, integrity, courage, and dedication in the pursuit of artistic goals.
Balanchine: Russian-American Ballet Master Emeritus would make a valuable addition to the young dancer's library. It captures the subject in a way that is both revealing and sensitive, while placing George Balanchine and New York City Ballet in a landscape beyond the self-contained.

Review: The Pointe Book: Shoes Training, Technique
The third edition of The Pointe Book, published in 2012 (previous editions were released in 1998 and 2004), covers aspects of pointe shoes and pointe dancing past, present, and future. This edition has been extensively revised and includes one entirely new chapter of sample pointe classes.
Barringer and Schlesinger have compiled a quantity of hard data related to pointe work and pointe shoes. Included are lists of manufacturers of pointe shoes and accessories, shoe size charts, and diagrams of the foot and pointe shoe with accompanying anatomical and functional information. The authors also offer thoughtful discussion on such subjective matters as pointe readiness, training methods, and the relevance of pointe dancing today and in the future. Considerable space is also given to the issue of pointe-related injuries, their causes, and different treatments and therapies.
There is a wealth of valuable insight in these pages. The authors have consulted teachers, professional dancers, and medical professionals with extremely diverse backgrounds, and do a thorough job of presenting the many (sometimes conflicting) viewpoints of their interview subjects. Barringer and Schlesinger do justice to pointe dancing as both art and craft.
The value of The Pointe Book for today's teachers and students is perhaps best summarized by a passage from the authors' interview with Kirk Peterson, from the final chapter of the book, "Will Pointe Work Be Relevant in the Twenty-first Century?" Peterson states:
"A healthy respect for ballet's time-honored traditions, an educated understanding of twentieth-century concerns for artistic relevance, and a respect for the public's very real love affair with ballet as a theatrical art form, will point a contemporary ballet choreographer in the direction that will guide him or her in a way that embraces ballet's traditions, yet stretches its potential and still uses pointe work as a valid tool for creativity and artistic expression."
In The Pointe Book: Shoes Training, Technique, Janice Barringer and Sarah Schlesinger write with evident respect for the traditions and history of classical dance, and carefully provide the most current information on the state of our art and craft. This compendium also raises provocative questions regarding training methods, injury, and general attitudes of teachers, artists, and audience toward pointe dancing. The authors have given a useful resource to teachers, dancers, and parents for the development of the kind of artists Peterson describes above.

TUESDAY, Jan. 28, 2014 (HealthDay News) -- A new hormone therapy drug for men with prostate cancer may increase survival a bit and delay progression of the disease in men who have advanced prostate cancer that has been resistant to standard hormonal therapies, a new study suggests.
The study found that the drug enzalutamide increased survival by 29 percent and delayed disease progression by 81 percent in men who hadn't received any treatment with chemotherapy.
"There's new hope for men with very advanced prostate cancer," said study author Dr. Tomasz Beer, deputy director of the Knight Cancer Institute at Oregon Health and Science University in Portland. "This is a treatment with an excellent safety profile that can help men maintain quality of life and extend disease-free progression and extend survival."
The findings are scheduled to be presented Thursday at a meeting of the American Society of Clinical Oncologists, in San Francisco. The study authors reported receiving research funding from the drug's manufacturers.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved enzalutamide in 2012 for use in men with advanced prostate cancer who have received chemotherapy. The drug is a type of hormone therapy called an androgen receptor blocker. Androgens are male hormones.
Enzalutamide is considered a second-generation hormone therapy. First-generation hormone therapy drugs for prostate cancer include bicalutamide, flutamide and nilutamide.
The current study included more than 1,700 men with prostate cancer that had spread to other areas of their bodies. The men's cancer also had progressed despite treatment with other types of hormone therapy. None of these men had yet been treated with chemotherapy. They had, however, been treated with surgery and radiation therapy.
Half of the volunteers were randomly assigned to receive enzalutamide and the other half received a placebo.
The study was stopped early because it was clear that enzalutamide offered a benefit over a placebo, so the drug was offered to all of the study volunteers.
"There was an 81 percent reduction in the risk of disease progression for men on enzalutamide," Beer said. "The median time to disease progression in placebo was [about four] months, but on the drug, a median time to disease progression hasn't been reached despite 20 months of follow-up."
When the study was stopped, 28 percent of those on enzalutamide had died, compared with 35 percent of those taking a placebo. The average median survival rate at the time of the first analysis was 32.4 months for those on enzalutamide versus 30.2 months for those taking a placebo.
"This drug is being used relatively early in prostate cancer, and patients can receive multiple treatments after," Beer said of the study population. Most of the men involved in the study were later treated with chemotherapy.
The drug is an oral medication, and it was well tolerated in the study. Previously published reports from when the drug was first approved suggested that the wholesale price of the medication would be about $7,450 a month.
"This drug is already FDA-approved in the post-chemotherapy setting, though it's not yet FDA-approved for use before chemotherapy," Beer said.
Dr. Ash Tewari, chairman of urology at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, in New York City, said enzalutamide works three different ways to suppress androgens, making it a "triple threat."
"This study's findings are exciting, and may give us another tool to fight this cancer," Tewari said. "And it was safe, with some minor side effects but nothing unusual."
Another study scheduled for presentation at the meeting looked at men with less advanced prostate cancer. This study found that adding radiation treatment to anti-androgen therapy dropped the 10- and 15-year prostate-cancer-specific death rate for men with locally advanced prostate cancer. Locally advanced prostate cancer is cancer that has grown through the prostate, but hasn't yet traveled to other areas of the body.
Surgery generally isn't an option for this type of cancer because it's difficult to remove all of the cancer cells.
The study, from Norwegian researchers, included 11 years of follow-up observation. Men who received hormone therapy alone had 10- and 15-year prostate-cancer-specific death rates of 18.9 percent and 30.7 percent, respectively. The rates for men who received radiation and hormone therapy were significantly lower: 8.3 percent and 12.4 percent, respectively.
Because these studies were presented at a medical meeting, the data and conclusions should be viewed as preliminary until they are published in peer-reviewed journals.

North Little Rock's Central Arkansas Transit Authority (CATA) began a Wi-Fi pilot project to determine the feasibility of outfitting the entire fleet with the hardware necessary to provide passengers with wireless Internet access.
The buses with the wireless equipment will be utilized on two selected routes to allow passengers to connect to the Internet, free of charge. Additional pilot buses may be added in the next few weeks.
"Providing wireless internet access to passengers is something we have wanted to do for a long time, but the funding hasn't been available." stated Bill Adcock, CATA director, operations. "The pilot project will provide us with valuable information regarding passenger usage, hardware performance and potential project cost."
CATA intends to include the provision of Wi-Fi services in a grant application being submitted to Metroplan later this year. The pilot will last through the month of November.

I saw a lot of KMW and Cheap Monday denim which I think were less than $100, maybe $69 or something like that. Some Nepenthes NY vests and one EG vest with lots of pockets. Can't think of anything else aside from what akaidiot mentioned. The prices were good though.

Transcoding is the process of converting media from one format to another. Subsonic's transcoding engine allows for streaming of media that would normally not be streamable, for instance lossless formats. The transcoding is performed on-the-fly and doesn't require any disk usage.
The actual transcoding is done by third-party command line programs which are installed in:
/Library/Application Support/Subsonic/transcode
Note that two transcoders can be chained together. Subsonic comes pre-installed with ffmpeg which supports a huge range of audio and video formats.
Recommended configuration
The recommended settings for audio transcoding is:
mp3 audio
ffmpeg -i %s -map 0:0 -b:a %bk -v 0 -f mp3 -
The recommended settings for video transcoding is:
flv/h264 video
ffmpeg -ss %o -i %s -async 1 -b %bk -s %wx%h -ar 44100 -ac 2 -v 0 -f flv -c:v libx264 -preset superfast -threads 0 -
mkv video
ffmpeg -ss %o -i %s -c:v libx264 -preset superfast -b:v %bk -c:a libvorbis -f matroska -threads 0 -
The recommended downsample command is:
ffmpeg -i %s -map 0:0 -b:a %bk -v 0 -f mp3 -
The recommended HTTP Live Streaming (HLS) command is:
ffmpeg -ss %o -t %d -i %s -async 1 -b:v %bk -s %wx%h -ar 44100 -ac 2 -v 0 -f mpegts -c:v libx264 -preset superfast -c:a libmp3lame -threads 0 -
Note that "%s" is substituted with the path of the original file at run-time, and "%b" is substituted with the max bitrate of the player. "%t", "%a" and "%l" are substituted with the song's title, artist and album.
Adding custom transcoders
You can add your own custom transcoder given that it fulfills the following requirements:
- It must have a command line interface.
- It must be able to send output to stdout.
- If used in transcoding step 2 it must be able to read input from stdin.
- Is the transcoder installed in
- Is the transcoder activated for your player (in Settings > Players)?
- Is the proper file extension added to the list of recognized file types (in Settings > General)?
- If it still doesn't work, please check the Subsonic log.
Subsonic Premium
Upgrade to Subsonic Premium to enjoy these extra features:
- Apps for Android, iPhone, Windows Phone, BlackBerry, Roku and more*.
- Video streaming.
- Podcast receiver.
- Play your media on compatible DLNA/UPnP devices.
- Share your media on Facebook, Twitter, Google+.

The State Of OpenGL 3.x, 4.x Extensions In Mesa
Published on 07 October 2013 04:29 AM EDT
Written by
Michael Larabel
11 Comments
a number of new OpenGL extensions
having been recently added to Mesa, here's a look at where the OpenGL 3.x/4.x support stands today in the open-source OpenGL implementation.
Following all the recent code activity about one month out from the next release, the "GL3.txt" documentation was updated to reflect Mesa's current position in catching up to the latest Khronos Group OpenGL specifications.
What's still blocking Mesa from advertising OpenGL 3.2 compliance is the GL Shading Language (GLSL) 1.50 changes not yet being complete but work is in progress. The
OpenGL Geometry Shaders
support is also only
partially complete
at this time.
The good news is that once OpenGL 3.2 support is in place, the only work remaining to advertise OpenGL 3.3 compliance are some new GLSL 3.30 changes, but most of those shading language changes are already complete. Developers are hoping for the next release of Mesa will have OpenGL 3.2~3.3 compliance, which would make the new three-month release as
Mesa 10.0
rather than Mesa 9.3. There was
a recent presentation about the next Mesa
in case you missed it. We'll see in the coming weeks what ultimately happens.
In terms of hitting OpenGL 4.0 support, that isn't likely until sometime in 2014 as there's many GL Shading Language changes, some GL4 extensions are complete, other extensions are only started, and some extensions like the GL_ARB_tessellation_shader haven't even been touched yet.
A fair amount of work on OpenGL 4.1 and OpenGL 4.2 has also been committed, but when it comes to OpenGL 4.3 and OpenGL 4.4 there's still much work left to be completed. Unless there's a fundamental shift and major investment to Mesa, I'd find it unlikely to have OpenGL 4.3~4.4 support in the project until at least 2015.
As usual, the Mesa driver in the best shape for supporting the most OpenGL 3/4 functionality is the Intel DRI driver with most of the major Mesa advancements happening by Intel Open-Source Technology Center developers around their investment in the open-source driver stack.
Below is the complete GL3/GL4 status as of today.

Interesting Flowchart wouldn't you guys agree? :)
I was contacted a couple of weeks ago by Phil from Home Security Systems and he kindly request me for a review on his flowchart… and I was impressed!
I am a firm believer that fun and interactive content encourages user engagement which is why I'm giving this flowchart a 5 Star Rating, congrats Phil!
During my conversation with Phil, I asked him where did they get their inspiration for this awesome Flowchart and this was what he told me:
The "Should I Text Him" flow chart was kind of our inspiration (http://visual.ly/should-i-text-him-flowchart). We knew that a static image was easily sharable and that a decision tree would be fun because not only is it informational but also allows for user participation.
We wanted to make it fun and still make sense, and so offering other types of security or protection for people – like guns, dogs, bodyguards (okay well maybe that one wasn't so practical!), etc. would be a good approach.
I thought that was pretty smart because I personally have been testing out various style of writing on this very blog to see which will get me the most engagement from my readers,
- One was very obnoxious
- One was straight up facts
- One was sort of controversial
- One was helpful
- One was just me goofing off and sharing my experience
Now if you had to guess, which one would you say that got me the most engagement from my readers?
It's the 5th one!
So far, that post got me the most comments during the entire course of my 3 months "blogging career". Interesting isn't it? People tend to engage more when you stop being a boring asshole (excuse the word ass there!) and become more fun and goofy!
Okay, okay.. I do realize that not everyone can be "fun" and "goofy" because of our different individual personality traits. But it wouldn't hurt if you at least try.
Just thought that I should remind you, this is the Internet here. Where fun, weird, interactive and pointless stuff dominates! I mean how else can the Oppa Gangnam Style video gained over 1 BILLION views and became a world phenomenon right? People are into fun stuff here! ;)
If the flowchart above made you giggle or smile, even just a little bit (don't lie to yourself now! :P) then why not give Phil's website a visit? Wouldn't it feel good to return the favor to someone who helped brighten your day today even if it's just a little bit? Give their website a look :)
Simply click here to see what they have to offer or maybe try out their free home security assessment because I know you care about your family's safety too, as much as I do mine.
Anyways, I guess this is all I got for you today. I hope you will find good use of the information in this post because this got my blog from the top 1 million websites in the world to the top 250,000 within the period of a couple of months.

Today at IFA ASUS announced a couple of new laptops. The first continues the refinement of the Zenbook line with an update geared around Intel's Core M line of processors. Andrei is at IFA Berlin and can hopefully provide some hands-on impressions later, but the design language looks similar to the existing 13.3" Zenbook. The big news outside of the Core M processor is that the display has been upgraded yet again, this time to a 3200x1800 QHD+ panel. Other aspects include three USB 3.0 ports, an SD card reader, micro-HDMI, and 802.11ac WiFi connectivity. We'll have more information on the Core M processors as well coming next week at IDF, but in the meantime it's interesting to note that ASUS has made the switch...

Monte Judah
This Messianic Jewish Bible teacher's claim to fame is identifying Prince Charles as the leading candidate for the Antichrist.By Tim McHyde
Monte wrote a personal computer program in 1982 to calculate 666 from world leader's names using the correct ancient Biblical Gematria in accordance with Revelation 18's instruction to "calculate" or "count" the number of the Beast from his name.
He also founded the Lion and Lamb ministries and congregation located in Norman, Oklahoma and hosts a Feast of Tabernacles (Sukkot) every Fall in Chandler, Oklahoma.

Don't Be Confused About Bible Prophecy Another MinuteHere's the Bible Prophecy breakthrough you've been waiting for—from two overlooked keys in the hard sayings of Jesus now made plain in the most accurate prophecy research available, because it departs from traditional "anything goes" allegorical interpretations which disregard Jesus' only statement on how to interpret Scripture correctly. (Learn these keys of Jesus in this free article...)
A Reader Comments:
"I've been searching all of my adult life for this kind of wisdom! I have listened to Irvin Baxter for 13 years and the Prophecy Club off and on for the same amount of time. I felt like I only had bits and pieces of the big picture. Then I hit the "wisdom and understanding jackpot" the next night when I typed "Prophecy" into a google search and out of all the sights that were available, I clicked on Tim's site first! It was like God pulled a needle out of a haystack for me in answer to my prayer from the day before!"
