text: Lucas Leite is a highly decorated Brazilian jiu jitsu competitor, famous for his half guard skills, who fights for the Checkmat BJJ Academy. Since Lucas Leite was graded as a black belt by Leonardo Vieira, he has been a regular presence in BJJ and submission grappling podiums around the world competing sometimes as a heavyweight, two weight categories above his natural weight division (lightweight). In 2007 Lucas Leite moved from his native Brazil to the United States where he formed one of the strongest Checkmat BJJ camps in the USA. Lucas Leite Jiu Jitsu Full Name: Lucas Jonas Gomes Leite Nickname: "Loucura" means craziness in Portuguese, because of Lucas Leite's wild character. Lineage: Mitsuyo Maeda > Carlos Gracie > Helio Gracie > Rolls Gracie > Romero Cavalcanti > Leonardo Vieira > Lucas Leite Main Titles: World Champion (2007, 2005 brown belt) World Nogi Champion (2009, 2011) Pan American Champion (2014, 2012, 2009, 2007) Grapplers Quest Pro Division Champion (Del Mar 2009, 2007) Sao Paulo State Champion (2006) European Champion (2006) World Silver Medallist (2011) World Pro Cup Silver Medallist (2012) Pan American Silver Medallist (2011) Weight Division: Peso Médio (82kg-181lbs) & Peso Leve (76kg-167lbs) Favourite Position: Half Guard Association/Team: Checkmat BJJ Lucas Leite Biography Lucas Leite was born on the 3rd of November 1982 in Sao Paulo, Brazil. Lucas Leite practiced a few sports growing up, but he found out about jiu jitsu when he was around 12 years old, through a VHS cassette that displayed the first Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), seeing Royce Gracie's tremendous display of technique opened young Lucas Leite's eyes to jiu jitsu and he decided to try it. The late Ryan Gracie was Lucas Leite's first jiu jitsu instructor, Leite trained at Ryan's academy for a few years, but he was not an active competitor and took the sport as a hobby. Getting closer to his mid-teens, Lucas Leite lacked the motivation to keep training and eventually abandoned the sport for a whole year. When Lucas Leite decided to return to the mats (at the age of 18), his family had relocated, and it was hard to commute to Ryan Gracie's gym, instead Lucas decided to join Leozinho Vieira's gym, this proved to be a major turning point in Lucas Leite's life. Training alongside a legendary competitor such as Leo Vieira, Lucas Leite started getting more motivated to fight, and became a serious competitor. Leo Vieira is one of the top instructors in the world and helped Lucas Leite develop his (now) famous half guard. He also showed Lucas Leite that he could make a decent living from BJJ and was a major influence in Lucas Leite's decision of becoming a professional jiu jitsu fighter and coach. In 2007 he came to the United States to compete and teach. His gym in California (Upland) became one of the main poles for the Checkmat BJJ team in the USA, the team often puts training camps together for big competitions from his academy, with Lucas Leite as one of the head coaches.

Well, here is the distinction between your regular Joe-Shmo Republican, and your elected official Republican: The guy on the street is all for business. The guys in office are for whatever makes them richer. There is a similar gap on the Democrat side, too. Your regular Democrat on the street wants the type of socialism that gives a hand up to the poor. The Democrats in office want the type of socialism that gives the guys in power more money. This is why this whole left-right thing is stupid- the guys on the street both want to see their fellow man prosper. The guys in office want to further themselves. But they tell you it's right vs left so that you fight amongst yourself instead of stopping them from passing selfish laws.

Consuming sugar doesn't bother me. What does bother me is consuming all the preservatives in out food, and all the unnatural sweeteners that are included. Although I am not a scientist, I wonder if high fructose corn syrup, calorie free sweeteners, and to a lesser extend, regular corn syrup, are far worse for us than the FDA understands yet. Also, try going 2 weeks without any sugar except for naturally occurring sugars in fruits and the like... you'll get your actual sense of sweetness back. I can no longer drink sugary soda (I usually drink seltzer, and occasionally I drink coke watered down with seltzer to 1/5 the concentration). I can't eat milk chocolate or most candy. They all taste disgustingly sweet to me.

Re:Democrats want you to fear Republicans! (105 comments)
The problem with your statement is you start with the presupposition that your worldview is correct. Those who are against abortion feel that way because they perceive an unborn child as a human being who has a right to life. Yet liberals always frame the argument as "conservatives are against women's rights" (even though it's only a single "right" in question). Then again, phrasing it that way changes the frame of the discussion from women's rights to "when does life begin?", which is much harder to argue in favor of abortion, since by scientific definition life begins at conception, and by genetic definition the fetus is a human being. It's much easier to re-frame the issue as women's rights, and paint opponents as sexist bigots. Also, the law in Florida you mentioned came to light because it was used to stop a church from feeding the poor. The same church that is filled with conservatives (who are also painted as "idiots who believe in a magical sky fairy", because again, it's easier to paint your opponent as stupid than it is to actually debate their ideas).

Ritz to take its biscuits back to TV for first time in 30 years
Ritz, the Mondelez-owned biscuit brand, is readying a grand return to TV, it's first in 30 years, as the company launches a series of products for the baked snack brand.
Ritz: returns to TV for the first time in 30 years
As Mondelez introduces the new Ritz Breaks, snack packs of five strips of three crackers, which will be available in original, rosemary and olive oil, the brand will be seen on screens with a £2.5m marketing push.
Marketing manager Rick Lawrence said he had a blank canvas when developing the Ritz brand in the UK, stating that the biscuits have traditionally been sold at Christmas and for parties, without a firm position in the market.
Now, Ritz Breaks will be aimed at millennials who lead rich, busy lives and will use the snacks to refuel, he added.
Lawrence said: "There is an opportunity to take advantage of an untapped occasion of an afternoon snack – most convenient savoury products are either too boring, too 'naughty' or not filling enough."
The new work follows Mondelez's unlikely product combination of Cadbury Dairy Milk and Ritz, which was set to "revolutionise" the snacking occasion, supported by a £7.5m ad campaign.

Alcohol may have some health benefits, including lowering the risk for heart disease, but it may also lead to abusive drinking and other diseases.
Evidence is mounting that people with periodontal (gum) disease may be more at risk for heart disease and stroke.
People with gum disease are more likely to have heart disease than people with healthy gums.

Born in Nantes in 1836, this genre painter studied at the School of Fine Arts in Paris and he began to exhibit at the Paris Salon in 1859. His early works were historical costume pieces very much in the manner of Henri Leys, whom he visited several times in Antwerp. From about 1864 he began to paint subjects of modern life and, during the 1860s, his work began to show a certain influence from the impressionists, notably Manet and Monet.
In 1871, Tissot came to London after the fall of the Paris Commune and he began to paint the English conversation pieces for which he is now best known, such as The Ball and The Concert. He exhibited at the Royal Academy between 1864 and 1881 and also at the Grosvenor Gallery and the Society of British Artists in Suffolk Street.
In about 1876 he met a Mrs. Kathleen Newton, a divorcée, who became his mistress. She was a model for many of his pictures of this period, but in 1882 she died and Tissot returned to Paris. After painting a further series of modern life scenes entitled La Femme A Paris, he devoted the rest of his life to religious paintings. Like Holman Hunt before him, he went to the Holy Land several times in search of realistic illustrations for his Life of Christ, published in 1896-7. He became a religious recluse and, when he died, he was still working on a series of Old Testament drawings.
Although Tissot is thought of as a Victorian artist, his art occupies an ambiguous position. In England he is part of the Pre-Raphaelite genre tradition, although his pictures do have a definite French flavour; in France, however, he is considered to be an interesting minor figure on the fringe of the Impressionist movement. Tissot died in 1902.

Our selection of hand-finished frames are painted or stained by hand in a variety of colours, and finished with a layer of wax - the end result is a uniquely crafted, beautiful frame that is made to last.
In this workshop everything comes together - the print, the frame and the glass - in a seamless and stream-lined process.
The artwork is carefully mounted in preparation for framing.
Once mounted, the print is ready to be covered by glass or perspex - a delicate procedure but expertly done with not a fingerprint in sight.
After a final, thorough check, the framed print is ready to be carefully packaged up and shipped to the customer.
For those who order their art as canvas prints, the same amount of attention and care goes into the process. Here, the print is being transferred to a wooden frame.
As with the framed prints, our canvases are all hand-finished in the workshop - a labour of love from start to finish.

Poached Eggs with Roasted Asparagus, Prosciutto, and Chive Oil
Servings: Makes 6
- 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh chives
- 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
- 1/4 teaspoon finely grated lemon peel
- 6 tablespoons white wine vinegar or unseasoned rice vinegar
- 6 to 12 large eggs
- 2 pounds medium asparagus spears, trimmed
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 ounces thinly sliced prosciutto
PREPARATIONView Step-by-Step Directions
Blend extra-virgin olive oil, chives, and lemon juice in blender or processor until smooth. Stir in grated lemon peel. Season to taste with salt and pepper. DO AHEAD Chive oil can be made 3 hours ahead. Cover and chill. Return to room temperature before using.
Fill 2 large bowls with ice water and ice; set aside. Pour enough water into each of 2 large skillets to reach depth of 1 inch. Bring water to slow simmer over medium heat. Add 3 tablespoons vinegar to each skillet. Carefully crack each egg into individual ramekins. Gently slide 1 egg at a time into simmering water, working in batches of 3 eggs for each skillet. Cook until whites are just set, about 3 minutes. Using slotted spoon, very gently transfer eggs to bowls with ice water, being careful not to break eggs. DO AHEAD Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate eggs in bowls of ice water.
Preheat broiler. Spread asparagus in single layer on rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with 3 tablespoons olive oil; turn asparagus to coat. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Broil asparagus 6 minutes. Turn asparagus over and continue to broil until crisp-tender and beginning to brown, about 6 minutes longer. Divide asparagus among 6 plates and drape prosciutto slices over.
Pour enough water into each of 2 large skillets to reach depth of 1 inch; bring to simmer. Using slotted spoon, transfer eggs to skillets; cook 1 minute for soft yolks. Using slotted spoon, place 1 or 2 eggs atop each serving of asparagus and prosciutto. Drizzle chive oil over and around each serving. Pass remaining chive oil separately.

Hatley Canada: Making The Moose Out of X-Mas Apron Only $12.50 (Was $25) & Free Shipping (EXPIRED)
Hatley has a number of items on for 50% off right now, including this moose-rific Christmas apron, which is now only $12.50, regularly $25. It just so happens they are also having their free shipping with no minimum weekend on right now, so you'll also get it shipped to you for free, instead of having to spend a minimum of $50.
Of course, we at Bargainmoose love this apron, but I know that the Hatley lovers out there will love it too. Moose and bears are part of Hatley's trademark look. An apron like this is perfect for yourself or as a gift for the cooking or baking lover in your life.
The item has also been discontinued, so you won't see it in stock again, so if you love it, now is the time to jump. It is 100% cotton, splatter resistant and has an adjustable neck so any man or woman can wear it.
While you're at it, you could get the matching oven mitt for only $5, regularly $10. My mom would love the fridge magnet that matches as well, only $2, regularly $4.
If you aren't into moose (as if that's possible), the Season's Grrreetings apron is also cute, with the signature bear cooking a turkey. Also only $12.50.
If you don't mind paying full price, you can still shop other items at Hatley and get free shipping this weekend. Check out the wide selection of kitchen aprons in the gift section. I like the Making a Moose in the Kitchen because that's apparently what I do, but I love it. This one is full price at $25.
Although this is the free shipping weekend so you don't have to spend $50 to get free shipping, you have an incentive to do so. First, your incentive is all the great stuff in the outlet you might want to buy. Second, if you spend over $50, you'll get a free Hatley ornament. These are $8.99 each, so you might have to weigh out the cost of your shipping to the cost of the ornament. My favourite of course: Moose Angel.

LinkedIn buys SlideShare
LinkedIn will spend US$118.75m to upload SlideShare into its portfolio of offerings. CEO Jeff Weiner says, in a press release, that the reason for the buy is that "Presentations are one of the main ways in which professionals capture and share their experiences and knowledge, which in turn helps shape their professional identity …
BB is still the number one business smartphone out in the field (probably). Whatever people write we won't know if blackberry is finished or not until the end of the year (ie BB 10).
Linked-In haven't updated their BB smartphone app for two years, and it's gastly.
Glad to see they have their priorities straight when it comes to target audience.
Who are they?
$118.75m ?
Obviously LinkedIn has no idea how to negotiate these kind of buy-out deals.
Otherwise they'd have paid $1BILLION.
They should have bought Prezi.com
Now THAT'S an on-line presentation tool!
Re: They should have bought Prezi.com
The bloom is already off that rose. For the past couple of years I've heard frequent complaints about Prezi at conferences - people complaining that it adds too much noise (in the form of pan/zoom/rotate visual effects) to presentations, that it's too much trouble coaxing it to work in the often rather hostile IT environments of conference hotels and the like, that its main purpose is to put lipstick on the pigs of poorly-written and -designed presentations. I've even seen a number of people complain in print that Prezi presentations make them dizzy or nauseated.
On the other hand, I don't know what, if anything, makes Slide Share any more valuable than any other site where you can store presentations, aside from its (claimed) relatively large user base. It always struck me as pretty boring.
Is Linkedin still going, what have I missed? I haven't been on there for ages.
Reminds me I got some spam the other day about Myspace.

From the day we met Dave, we knew that he'd bring the energy we needed to our wedding. He guided us through the entire process and helped us with everything from the order of the processional in the ceremony straight through to choosing the last song of the night. And on the day of the wedding, when our guitarist bailed on us, he filled in with a beautiful set and no one missed a beat. Oh and the best part was when lightening struck and knocked the entire building offline... Dave rebooted his system and had us back up and running in no time at all! If anyone cares to ask us, DTR comes highly recommended!

I LOVED working with Dave! I am so glad that we went with DTR, I don't think that my wedding could have been any better. He and his partner picked the perfect music for the crowd. All of my guests were happy with the music and surprised with the selection of music. I did not hear a single complaint of what music was played. I would definitely suggest DTR to anyone who is getting married in the NJ/NY area! Thank you so much Dave for making my day as spectacular as it was! My husband and I truly enjoyed ourselves!

Dave was amazing!!!! My wedding was on New Years Eve, he and his crew did an awesome job at setting the tone. The dance floor was packed even before dinner started! The lighting he did for us made the entire room. The choice of music he blended with our requests had our guests dancing all night long. At 12 Dave and his crew tuned in live for the ball drop this was one of the best parts of having a New Years Eve wedding! He also put together with the help of our pictures a wonderful slideshow surprise of myself and the groom- this really helped show us grow up and then grow together as a couple - we loved it! His company is extremely professional. He always gets back to you and is genuinely such a sweet , caring and creative guy! I would and do recommend him to anyone! And to top it off he traveled all the way to Pennsylvania for my wedding (our wedding was held at Merion Cricket Club in Haverford, PA).

After Dave did an absolutely phenomenal job at my older sister's wedding, I knew without a doubt we would be hiring DTR Entertainment to be part of the most important day of our lives.
Our wedding was at The Venetian in Garfield, NJ, and one of the most unforgettable days of our lives. Dave was a huge part of that happiness, ensuring the music was always on point, kept everyone on schedule, and he kept the party alive the entire time! We opted for additional band elements in our wedding such as a percussionist, saxophone player and amazing singer which really took it to the next level. I would definitely recommend having these upgrades to further enhance your guest's experience. I know my guests personally enjoyed the fact that we had the saxophone player during cocktail hour.
Dave and the crew of DTR Entertainment are absolutely amazing and really go above and beyond. Their service, attentiveness, and passion for music and entertaining is really shown through their work. Dave's charismatic personality and high energy upheld the level of excitement for our big day which naturally made our guests gravitate towards the dance floor.
Dave is extremely professional, and after being part of my older sister's day and my day, our relationship is considered to be like family! I constantly rave about how amazing Dave and his crew are and would highly recommend them to everyone! Thanks again Dave for EVERYTHING we appreciate all that you did to make our day so incredible!!!!

DTR was fabulous, and DJ Dave did a great job!! He paid great attention to detail and really helped us out with our budget. We were able to get a very affordable package, including dance floor lighting and uplighting for the room. Our reception was at the Grand Colonial, and the room looked AMAZING with all of the purple lighting. Dave was very easy-going throughout the planning process and responded quickly to emails. During our reception, the dance floor was constantly full and everyone was having a blast! We received so many compliments at the end of the night, and also days after the wedding, about how great our DJ was. Even the grandparents had positive things to say! :) I highly recommend DTR Entertainment! Thanks Dave & team!

I do not even know where to begin giving DTR accolades. Dave was the DJ for our wedding and from the very moment we met him, we knew we were in the hands of not just a professional, but a friend. Dave was happy to come to our apartment multiple times and sit down with us to get to know us as a couple and discuss our vision for our wedding. He was immediately apparent as a generous, caring person who was focused entirely on us as a couple. When the wedding came, Dave was dynamite, MCing with an explosive personality that really set the mood for the party of a life time. He played the music we wanted to hear (and avoided the music we didn't), and even allowed my 96 year old grandfather to take the mic to belt out some trumpet in our honor. We could not be happier with our decision to use DTR entertainment (and Dave specifically) and I'm just hoping another event will come along soon where we can make use of his services again. Highest possible recommendation.

The dance floor was packed all night and our guests keep telling us what a great time they had. He played music that appealed to all generations. Josh was also there as a "dancer" and was so much fun! He really got the crowd going. Our wedding was the best day of our lives and we owe a lot of that to Dave.

Dave and DTR Entertainment really made our wedding an amazing experience. From the first class service, to how beautiful the room looked with the uplighting, to of course, the music, it was an amazing time. So many people over the course of the night came up to us telling how great the DJ was and today, anytime we see someone who was at the wedding, they always say how great the music was. Dave and his staff really helped make our wedding night special and one we'll never forget.

To Dave Butler
A Great friend who left too soon
NO matter what the mood he could always lift you up
He was blind, full of arthritis, liver problems and full of pain, but even through
all that the guy had a permanent smile and a positive attitude.
And I really missed the times we sang and played guitar at church together .
Where ever he's too he is putting a smile on someones face in his usual way.

Message To My Mother Lyrics - Hank Williams
Take this message to my mother
It will fill her heart with joy
tell her that I've met my saviour
God has saved her wand'ring boy.
The tears and sorrow I have caused her
How I wish I could repay
But tell her I'll be waiting for her
We'll meet in heaven some glad day. ...
How she cried when I left her
I know it filled her heart with pain
She said, "son, please don't leave me
For we may never meet again."
Years have passed since that parting
But I know she waits and prays
Soon I'll cross that dark river
Please let her know that I was saved.

Georgia All-American safety Bacarri Rambo and starting inside linebacker Alec Ogletree have been suspended for at least the first two games of the 2012 season, according to a report Wednesday night from DawgPost.com.
The website, citing multiple sources inside the program, reported that Rambo and Ogletree violated rules that could warrant a suspension of as many as four games. There was no immediate confirmation from Georgia's athletic department, and football coach Mark Richt is not scheduled to meet with the media until after Saturday's practice, which will be the eighth spring workout.
Georgia already will be without starting cornerback Sanders Commings, who was arrested on a domestic violence/simple battery charge in January, for opening games against Buffalo and Missouri. Branden Smith, who is projected as the other starting cornerback, was arrested earlier this month for marijuana possession and is expected to be suspended for one or two games.
Should Rambo be suspended as well, it would leave safety Shawn Williams as the lone prominent member of the secondary to avoid offseason misfortune.
Rambo was suspended for last season's opener against Boise State but rebounded by amassing 55 tackles and eight interceptions, including one for a touchdown against Auburn. Ogletree missed six games last year because of a broken foot he suffered in the opener yet still managed 52 tackles and 7.5 tackles for loss.
In the triple-overtime loss to Michigan State in the Outback Bowl, Ogletree tallied a career-high 13 tackles.

During shedding (took a week) and still had skin covering his lower half. Today I woke up and he was dead. Did I kill him for lack of humidity? Was it due to the fact he had trouble shedding? He always soaked in his cave.That should've been enough for him to shed. Wasn't it? There's gonna be a moses2. But I wanna make sure i dont become a snake executioneer

Those spikes two or so inches from the tail are not a penis they are just spurs. They are remnants of what used to be legs a long time ago. In fact some only have one and some have none but it doesn't mean its a boy or girl. The vet is best to find that out. I've heard tho that some female bp have much larger bulkier heads than males but I dont know how true that is. The problem is the best way and surest way to tell but doing this yourself could be harmful to your snakey so take him or her in.

I have a 1 year old BP Bailey is her name she was given to me and I love her she is a great addition to our family, she is very friendly as every time we are in the room she tries to climb up the cage to see what we are doing and so on, My question is why does she poop so much? She eats 1 live mouse every 7 days I have had her for 3 weeks and she has already pooped several times I was wondering if this was normal, sometimes the poo is white and other times it is brown and I am not sure if this is what she is supposed to be doing as I am a new owner and want to make sure that I do everything right so that she has a nice and comfy very healthy life.

Me and my girlfriend just got a ball python about three days ago. I grew up with one so it was my choice of pet. I haven't handled a snake in about 4 years though so I've become a little nervous but not much. Just about an hour ago I was holding it(don't know the sex) and the bottom half of it kinda rolled on its back so it flipped its body around at a kinda fast motion and it scared me, so I tossed her off my lap onto the floor. I instantly picked her up and put her on the bed. I feel so so so bad. :( I'm not that scared of her so I don't know why I did it. I'm just trying to handle it as much as possible so we get used to each other.

Church historian Martin Marty discusses how conservative Christians are pulling back from the culture wars. He cites the leadership of Pope Francis for the Roman Catholics and Russell Moore for the Southern Baptists. An additional factor is the increasing secularization of the conservative movement, citing the Tea Party's general indifference to moral issues the church has been concerned with. (He might have added the active atheism and hostility to Christianity of the hard-core libertarian followers of Ayn Rand.)

Another competition is in the books and this one with way more advanced movements than anything I'd ever done before.
But the struggle in my head of why I do them is an ongoing one and hasn't gotten easier.
You see, I don't train, live, eat or supplement like an elite athlete. I've never been competitive in my life and don't have that natural engine inside me that creates a competitive drive. Yet I train hard, eat clean and when I show up to compete, I expect more of myself than an average day and I get embarrassed by the spectators as I struggle for every rep.
I secretly hope there will be people at my level so I'm not the only one shaking out a rep. I always feel like I need to tell my judge that I suck and am sorry he/she got stuck with me. I feel like I need to explain to my fellow competitors and spectators that while it is true I've been doing CF for two years that there are some things I've just never excelled at and that I probably shouldn't be in a competition that has those movements, yet when you sign up, you don't always know what the movements will be. So you suck it up and do what you can.
And so this competition was no different. My coach wouldn't let me back out. My team mates would encourage me to keep going. I PR'd every single lift, time and skill.
When I signed up for this year's competition, my plan was to compare myself to last year but there was no comparison.
The movements were triplicate of last years. Heavier weight, longer distances, more reps, more WODs.
Yet I did them. While I came in last place (again), this little non-athlete lifted, pulled, pushed, rowed, ran, and jumped more than ever in my life.
And while I don't feel like I should be competing on the same floor as some of those beasts, it makes me thankful to finish and know that I was on the floor with those beasts.
When others were too afraid to sign up, or didn't show up after registering or weren't able to for any reason, I did it. And survived....
It was good to show the Vegkid that working hard and finishing something you started is more important than winning. That you can struggle, shake, push, sweat, be embarrassed, and feel 1000 emotions but getting through something challenging even with people watching is a success. That you should always try because you don't know what you are capable of if you don't.
And most importantly that life isn't always easy. Things don't always come naturally and sometimes it takes everything you have just to finish a task but you do it anyway.
So that is what I did! Number 400 with a smile and I signed up for another....
Smack my head!!'

Evolution in the Holy Land
All creation is the doings of God's hands, no matter how he did it. When I look at a painting, I can connect somehow with the painter, and the same goes with the universe and God.
The Resource Finder has powerful filtering features — check out the tutorial to learn more.
All creation is the doings of God's hands, no matter how he did it. When I look at a painting, I can connect somehow with the painter, and the same goes with the universe and God.
I became such an expert in young-earth creationist theology and science that it turned into a wrecking ball for my faith.
Science is an honest and noble pursuit, evidence of human intellect and curiosity, and to turn away from these is to deny a very important part of who God created us to be in the first place.
John Calvin really believed that the sun revolved around the earth, but we shouldn't dismiss the rest of his theology because of this error.
My childhood in the evangelical church gave me the toolkit that led me to eventually accept the evidence for evolution, and marvel at the God who created it all.
Recent high-school graduate Jacob shares about his journey from young-earth creationism to evolutionary creationism, and how his faith was challenged and strengthened along the way.
Read about the death of Wolfhart Pannenberg, still debating creation and evolution, and a really big dinosaur discovery.
God invites us to understand his power and nature through studying what has been made.
Written by BioLogos Fellow of Biology Dennis Venema, this series of posts is intended as a basic introduction to the science of evolution for non-specialists.
Stephen Meyer and the Discovery Institute seek to make the case for the designer in a purely scientific context, without specifying who the designer is. At BioLogos, we take the approach that science is not equipped to provide a full Christian apologetic.
Conflicts occur when people argue one worldview against another. They may be arguing Atheism versus Monotheism, then pull out science as a weapon saying, "science proves I'm right because of this or that..." In my view, science is rather more limited than this. Science has a lot of interesting resonances with the big questions, and can inform them, but I don't believe it can answer them.
We need to hear stories from others who have wrestled with evolution and Christian faith. What arguments made them change their views on science? How did they hold fast to their relationship with God? The essays in this series will eventually comprise a book, provisionally titled, "Evolving: Evangelicals Reflect on Evolution."
There is often a worry that working in or studying science is a threat to faith, but stories of scientists who are Christians in the top ranks of academia show that this is not the case.
How should we interpret the Bible? What is the role of tradition? What is the role of science? Who gets to decide whether traditional interpretations need to change?
"I believe that we must now ask for more than simple avoidance of cognitive dissonance. I believe we should seek for cognitive consonance."
Carl's dramatic lines that opened his Cosmos were repeated in Cosmos II: "The universe is all there is, or was, or ever will be." When I told Haines Stiles that many people took that as a statement of atheism, he responded with surprise. "Really?" he said. "We just put that in because it sounded poetic!"

Comments about Whirlpool 30" Gas Cooktop - Stainless Steel:
I've only been in our new home a couple months, but this cooktop was worth the extra money. The power burners are great for quicker results and it seems to be easier to clean than my old black cooktop. I was hesitant about the grates, but so far so good!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

food gets ready fast!
By yelofrog
from Frisco, TX, United States
After reading reviews, we choose this cook top because if looks and functionality. In reading rereviews I learned so much iI never would have thought of, height of the burner grates effecting the rate the food gets hot, flame size, etc. This cook top is awesome! Everything heats quickly and the "extra" grate with no burner is a great place to set something while you're cooking, to keep it warm. Great purchase!!!!!
So Very Pleased!!!!

Excellent value and quality
By kric

This range looks and works like a high-end range. The quality and feel of the grates is excellent. When researching, some grates seemed weak and slid around on the range. These are heavy and stay in place great. The larger burner is great for getting water to boil faster. Couldn't be happier.
Good gas top

By nitoen

We chose this unit with the purchase of a new home. We have been using the stove for over a month now and are glad we made this choice. It is easy to operate and clean. It cooks the food much faster and more even than the electric stove we had before. I prefer gas over electric.

Associated Press
DAKAR, Senegal (AP) -- A mob has ransacked the headquarters of Ivory Coast's most prominent gay rights organization, underscoring the dangers confronting such groups even in the few African countries where homosexual acts are not crimes.
The violence followed days of anti-gay protests in Ivory Coast, which is sometimes considered a safe haven for homosexuals fleeing persecution elsewhere across the continent. It contributed to a growing sense that activists championing gay rights in Africa are under siege, with countries working to strengthen existing laws that criminalize homosexuality. A new law in Nigeria bans all gay associations, and lawmakers in Uganda may well override their president's opposition and approve a bill imposing life prison terms for consenting same-sex partners who engage in repeated sexual acts.
Some human rights activists view the crackdown as a backlash at pressure from the United States and European countries that say they will use their leverage to promote the human rights of gay people around the world. Britain has threatened to cut aid to countries that outlaw homosexuality, and the Obama administration two years ago instructed "all agencies engaged abroad to ensure that U.S. diplomacy and foreign assistance promote and protect the human rights of LGBT persons."
In response, African governments say they will defend their people's religious and cultural convictions that homosexuality is evil and un-African.
The attack in Ivory Coast took place Saturday afternoon but was not publicized until Monday. Nearly 200 people stormed the offices of Alternative Cote d'Ivoire in an upscale suburb of Abidjan, the commercial capital, flinging stones to shatter windows and stealing computers, said Claver Toure, the group's executive director.
Others heaved sacks of garbage over the property's exterior walls and left trash and broken glass at the entrance. Signs hung on walls demanded "Stop the homos!" and "Pedes get out!" The word "pede" is short for pederast or pedophile, and is commonly used in West Africa to insult gay men.
"Everything they could take was taken, and the rest was broken," Toure said, adding that a private security guard was hospitalized with wounds to his face.
Toure criticized what he described as a deliberately slow response by security forces, saying police did not arrive until the French ambassador contacted government officials. Ultimately, he said, about 10 officers came with a half-dozen U.N. peacekeepers.
"When we call, the police need to come right away and protect us because we are Ivorians," Toure said.
Interior Minister spokesman Bazoumana Coulibaly said the government was not prepared to comment because it was still collecting information.
The attack was not unexpected.
In a statement last Friday, the Ireland-based human rights organization Front Line Defenders detailed what it described as "coordinated" attacks against Toure's group last week. It warned that "rumors are circulating that a more virulent attack is envisioned" for Saturday.
On Jan. 20, neighbors gathered outside Toure's home to chant anti-gay slogans and issue death threats against those inside, Front Line Defenders said. Two days later, a mob targeted Alternative's headquarters, placing signs demanding that the organization leave.
Local media reports quoted residents last week expressing fear that the presence of a gay rights organization would jeopardize their children's safety, highlighting the widespread belief throughout Africa that gay people target children for recruitment.
Toure said his landlord confronted him on Jan. 5 after neighbors complained that more than 20 people were staying in his home and that "condoms could be found throughout the neighborhood each morning" -- accusations Toure denied.
U.S. Ambassador Terence P. McCulley said he was "shocked and saddened" by Saturday's attack.
"Even if one is not in agreement with the point of view of an organization or its people, we have an obligation in a democracy to support the right of people to organize and express themselves," he said in a statement posted Monday on the embassy's Facebook page. "I hope that Ivorians will understand that these attacks are not consonant with democratic values."
Violence targeting gays in Africa drew worldwide notice earlier this month when President Goodluck Jonathan of Nigeria signed a law banning gay associations and gay marriage. Dozens have been arrested since then throughout Africa's most populous country.
The new law carries penalties of up to 14 years in prison. But in some northern Nigerian states that also have Islamic Shariah law, a homosexual can get the death sentence just for being gay.
Outside a courthouse in the northern Nigerian city of Bauchi this month, protesters tried to stone seven men accused of belonging to a gay organization, demanding they be stoned to death. A week before in Bauchi, a 28-year-old man was punished with 20 lashes after pleading guilty before a Shariah court to an act of sodomy committed seven years ago. He said he was led astray by a high school principal.

Learn to Adjust to the Shot
Many players do the same shot over and over against varying incoming balls, whether they are ready for the shot or not. For example, loopers might loop hard against any block to the forehand, even if rushed, off balance or not in position. Or they might loop a serve at the same speed over and over, regardless of whether they are sure they have read the serve properly. Instead, learn to slow down some shots, or choose a more controlled shot, if you are not really set for the shot (i.e. rushed, off balance, out of position or not sure of the spin).

Precise Corporate Staging Expands L-ACOUSTICS Inventory for Summer Festival Season
The five-day Country USA music festival in Oshkosh, Wisconsin benefitted from PCS' new KUDO, SB28 and LA-RAK systems
PCS adds KUDO, SB28 and LA-RAK for new Entertainment Division
TEMPE, Arizona — Precise Corporate Staging (PCS) of Tempe, Arizona upped its L-ACOUSTICS product count in late-May with the addition of 24 KUDO enclosures, 24 SB28 subs and six LA-RAK touring amplifier racks. The systems were purchased, in part, to accommodate the busy summer festival schedule of PCS' new Entertainment Division, which this year deploys systems and staging for Country USA and Rock USA in Oshkosh, Wisconsin and the legendary week-long Buffalo Chip in Sturgis, South Dakota.
PCS' new L-ACOUSTICS KUDO enclosures (right) flanked by V-DOSC and sub arrays at Country USA in late-June
"With 30 V-DOSC already in our inventory, we had enough boxes to do main PA hangs for most outdoor shows but previously had to cross-rent additional V-DOSC for outfill," says PCS President David Stern. "This year we've switched over to KUDO for outfill, beefed up our subs to SB28, and gotten into LA8 amplified controllers for digital distribution as well as improved processing and control."
In addition to being ideal for outdoor festivals and large arenas, KUDO also enables PCS, an L-ACOUSTICS US Certified Provider, to offer a system that is well suited to serve as a main PA for smaller venues. "We're doing a lot of shows for casinos like Talking Stick here in Tempe and V-DOSC was simply too large and heavy for the room," Stern notes. "We've flown six KUDO per side there for Los Lonely Boys, Sylvia Browne and Dwight Yoakam in the past few weeks and they worked great — plenty of horsepower and a nice flat EQ right from the start."
For more information on Precise Corporate Staging and the new PCS Entertainment Division, visit www.pcstaging.com.
L-ACOUSTICS is a leading innovator and manufacturer of high-performance loudspeakers, amplifiers and signal processing devices for touring and installed sound markets. Known around the globe for pioneering and championing the modern line array loudspeaker concept with V-DOSC, the company has received numerous accolades for its K1, KUDO, KARA, KIVA, ARCS, XT coaxial loudspeaker systems and SB line of subwoofer enclosures, all powered and processed with the LA4 and LA8 amplified controllers in fulfillment of a "total system approach." L-ACOUSTICS products for the US market are distributed by L-ACOUSTICS US of Oxnard, California.
