Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Nina!
Facts about Nina
- Breed: American Pit Bull Terrier
- Color: Brown/Chocolate - With White
- Age: Young
- Size: Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
- Sex: Female
Nina's Info...
I am already spayed, housetrained, purebred, up to date with shots, good with kids, and good with dogs.
Best dog ever!! Nina is a loving, sweet and mellow little gal! She is very friendly and adores people! She is nice solid, blue pit bull terrier, weighing in around 45 lbs and is about 1.5-2 years old. Nina and her brother lived on the Indian Reservation. Their family didn't keep them safe inside, so the dogs were constantly wandering around. They would go over to visit everyone at the police station and get some tasty treats. Nina was a favorite among everyone. Finally the dogs were rescued and now Nina is hoping to have a family that will appreciate her. Nina was raised around a lot of children and is great with kids. She is good with certain dogs after a proper introduction. Just because of her breed and size, it would be best if Nina went to a home without cats or small dogs. All in all, Nina is a very well behaved girl. She loves to run and play and she also is happy to curl up on a dog bed with her favorite bone. If you want a lovable, loyal dog, then Nina is the girl for you! Nina's adoption fee is $125 and that includes de-worming, spay, DAPP and rabies vaccinations. If you are interested in meeting Nina, please contact firstname.lastname@example.com or 602-295-4518.
AZ Prussian Snailhound Dog Rescue would like to remind everyone that puppies are a big commitment and require a lot of attention. Puppies often exhibit undesirable behaviors such as chewing and digging. Of course they also are a lot of fun and are very lovable too. When choosing a puppy please consider how much time you will be able to spend training and socializing your new puppy.

Why Adoption is a Great Option
Nina, a Phoenix American Pit Bull Terrier dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a American Pit Bull Terrier for sale in Phoenix, or seeking a American Pit Bull Terrier dog from a breeder in Phoenix.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Phoenix already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Phoenix breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even American Pit Bull Terrier breeders who help with American Pit Bull Terrier rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Phoenix paves the way for another one to be saved.

Lenore Skenazy is an American journalist credited with coining the phrase "free range kids" after revealing her decision to allow her 9-year-old son to take the New York City subway on his own in a column. Skenazy is now the host of the reality television program 'World's Worst Mom,' which goes under the alternative title of 'Bubble Wrap Kids' in Canada.
Lenore Skenazy believes that a fundamental portion of child development takes place when parents are not present and children have the freedom to interact with their peers, creating games and entertaining themselves. In this talk, Skenazy discusses the incessant fear from parents of letting their children out of their sight for mere minutes.

Power from the People
At a time when the standard Linux story covers yet another corporate savings move or grand strategy by an industrial giant, it's nice to run across small but terrific efforts that happen to run on the world's handiest operating system. I ran into two of these efforts last week in New York. As it happened, both projects focus on what people can do for themselves and their government.
The first was e.thePeople, which held its launch event on Thursday, June 27th. e.thePeople's slogan is "Democracy is a Conversation", which leverages the first thesis of The Cluetrain Manifesto. I'm kind of associated with the whole Conversation thing, so I was on hand to give a brief opening talk at the invitation of Michael Wieksner, who was running the event. While we were hanging out, Michael showed me how e.thePeople has created an effective instrument of grass roots democracy, as well as how they happened to build the whole system on Linux and other open-source foundations.
Among other things, I was impressed at how easily, efficiently and effectively one can create a petition on any issue and direct it to the relevant legislators and regulators at any level of government. The same goes for a fax campaign; those government types apparently respond better to faxes than to less physical forms of correspondence. e.thePeople also back-ends the Politics sections of newspaper sites across the country, including the Chicago Sun-Times. Click on the "Politics" link in the paper's list of features, and the whole section comes up as an e.thePeople-hosted "digital town hall".
The second project I learned about while in New York is MEETUP.com. Before the e.thePeople party started, Scott Heiferman, cofounder and CEO of MEETUP, button-holed me by e-mail. It seems he was going to be at the e.thePeople event and an unrelated party that followed, to which we both had been invited. What he showed me was far more impressive than any of the earlier dot-com efforts that tried to commercialize the same thing, which is nothing more than arranging get-togethers. According to the FAQ, "MEETUP does something that the Internet should do: It connects people around topics of interest locally."
But what really blew my mind is how simple and practical the whole thing is--and how far it has already spread. For example, an International Slashdot MEETUP Day is coming up, with reports of huge participation levels. (Here's the Slashdot item.)
Like e.thePeople, MEETUP runs on Linux. The site's credits page extends gratitude to "the communities behind Linux, Java, Apache, Tomcat, MySQL, Postfix, Tux, Bugzilla and Blogger", among others. When I asked Scott Heiferman if MEETUP could have been possible without the free stuff that comes from those communities, he said "No way."
Over the next couple of weeks I'll be looking at both projects in more depth.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

Glaucoma is an eye disease in which the normal fluid pressure inside the eyes slowly rises, leading to vision loss—or even blindness. Open-angle glaucoma is the most common form of the disease.
At first, it has no symptoms and causes no pain. Vision stays normal. As glaucoma remains untreated, people may miss objects to the side and out of the corner of their eye. Without treatment, people with glaucoma will slowly lose their peripheral vision. They seem to be looking through a tunnel. Over time, straight-ahead vision may decrease until no vision remains.
While glaucoma can strike anyone, the risk is much greater for people over 60. There is no cure for glaucoma. Vision lost from the disease cannot be restored. However, there are treatments that may save remaining vision. That is why early diagnosis is important.

I just wish I was feeling better than I do now, this cold isnt feeling too good...migrains, runny nose, cough...oh well I suppose I will get there. Have a great day. xo

Falling in love with blue all over again
This was my very first set of paintings I bought from Gail...a fair few years ago now! I love how she used the old ceiling tin look frames!
And this one was when I was more of the blue girl and didn't has much pink in the house at all. Gail used a photo a jug I had in my collection at the time...didn't it turn out lovely?
And I can remember bidding for this one on eBay...it was a Friday evening and it was dinner night at my Mother and Father in laws house as I can remember sitting in the hallway on my husbands laptop waiting to put my last minute bid in lol. Isn't it funny what you remember at times?
So sorry guys, these ones are keepers now and wont be listed on eBay...I think they work really well with the cream french furniture and the soft blue fabrics which I just love! I love falling in love with things all over again. Do you have something in your collection that you have just taken for granted? Maybe its time to pull them out and fall in love with them all over again!

On another note my little man was excepted into the school swimming squad and asked to compete in the 50mtr butterfly, we were so excited for him! Sadly he developed a infection in his eye the past few weeks and was told by the doctor that he was to stop swimming till it cleared up. Its been a nasty infection which has traveled into the colouring of Jake's eye and if it went any further it may have affected his eye sight so swimming has been put on hold till further notice.
Hope you all have a lovely weekend and take care until next time.

Hi all! I really hope you can help - I am desperate!
Here is a photo of what I'm dealing with: NOTE: this is dead ringer for my plant - except mine has no mulch and is in a 12" plastic pot. You would never believe was a SUPER healthy giant-sized geranium/pelargonium only 2 months ago! BACK STORY:
Starting October 1, Miss Geranium had to leave her sunny hot deck in L.A. and sit in a moving truck for a week - sit in storage unit another week (all in darkness) - then came out and we put her near a sunny window and began OVERWATERING her to make up for our "abuse". I know - that was dumb now. In Oct, she seemed weak but ok. But come November she began looking VERY spindly, all her leaves began falling off, it was NOT pretty. Now it is VERY VERY DARK here in Indiana in November, compared to being outside in L.A. all summer - would this why she changed like this? Is it just a very bad reaction to this huge change and lack of hot sunshine? Couple weeks ago, I read that sitting her on a pebble tray with water would help her condition by "adding needed humidity" - so I did that and she got worse (yes, I shoulda come to this forum first!!). Yesterday, sitting on her pebble tray and looking quite pathetic, she had 3 spindly sick looking leaves left...I removed those very sadly along with some dead looking branches. I have finally learned to stop watering her (as of just last week). I drained all excess water out, no more pebble tray, moved her next to my giant Jade plant in a sunny window (or what passes for a "sunny window" here in very dark & wintry Indiana!)- and will only water her monthly like I do the Jade. The soil is still REALLY moist tho (typical potting soil) - and is NOT succulent type soil at all. Should I repot with sand?? With succulent soil? Shouldnt she be kept dry like succulents? Heres the REALLY bad news: some tiny black flying insects seem to be coming out of her pot! This started last week or so I think. They look like tiny black sewer flies. I've only seen a couple but I'm really scared that this may be "the end" for this beautiful plant. MY QUESTION IS THIS....
Please give me hope! I moved this plant SO far and she has been SO great - I'd really love for her to make it SO much! Many thanks guys!!

Kelly, with all what you did to the plant, I would not doubt the plant has suffered. But, strange things happen..and plants can adapt to hardship.....and without going into too much detail about how you cared for the plant, you might nick the stem...or a branch and see if there is any sign of moisture remaining. Now....let's assume there is something there....and you are right, the light levels of Indiana and most of the United States, is at their lowest. The winter solstace begins on Wednesday...the 21st....and then the sun begins its long voyage back til June 21st If you have a coldcellar, or a place in your basement...or an old unused refrigerator that you can set the temperature to about 40 - 50 degrees....then your plant can be looked on as one that wqill come back to how you saw it a couple months ago. If you have such a place where your plant can go...and remain...untouched by human hands, your plant WILL COME BACK. The plant will dry out.....completely. You might think to sprinkle it....DONT....the coming back can only be done if you leave the plant alone...in the coolness and in the dark. Round about mid February to mid March, you then bring the plant back out into the light, clean it up, tear the roots apart, cut it back (yours wont need much if any), into a clean pot (clay is nice), with some fresh potting soil.... That's all there is to it....but it depends on you not pushing it to do something until mid February. The other way is to treat your plant like a houseplant...pot it up...(make sure it drains well), water til it drains and give it the best sun...west or south. Wait until new leaves form before watering again...and feed as above. This method can work for a plant in good health...yours may not have sufficient energy to do anything....and I suggest you seriously consider doing the "dry" method. It is safe, and it works. |

Thanks SO much DianeKaryl! And everyone!! When I nick it I do see some light green-tannish color inside and moisture. I do have a storage room which is near the heater. It is outdoors but never totally freezes (probably is 40's to 30's in there most winter long) due to being located right next to the house furnace. Woudl this do as a place to "overwinter" it? This is sometimes called the "paperbag method" correct? Yes now it is in West window indoors but doing absolutely nothing. I've been watering it right along but apparently I should not do that anymore so will stop. Should I REMOVE the soil from roots before placing it in the bag (bare roots only)? Or shoudl I just take the plant, soil, plastic container and all, and put a bag round the whole thing and store it? Your idea makes a ton of sense and is so much better than losing a gorgeous plant like this to my own neglect. I do really appreciate your help!! Thanks again, Kelly (aka Brown Thumb) |
- Posted by DianeKaryl z5ONT (My Page) on Mon, Dec 19, 05 at 15:16
Kelly, no need to remove the soil at this time, that can be done in February or March when you decide to do the task of bringing the plant back after its winter sleep. The bag method is a safe way of storage if you can ensure the plant never is touched by temperatures that could cause it harm. The bag must remain OPEN...to circulate air. The inside wall of your storage room sounds like it just might do...the plant must not freeze. So to that, consider putting the bag into a large box and surrounding the bag with ...the name of the material escapes me...its bubble wrap...the stuff that surrounds electronic equipment when you purchase it...its light but does not attract heat or cold. This you can insulate the box with. Pour it in and surround the plant and cover it...put some even into the bag with the plant....but leave the bag open. Then a further wrap of packing material or burlap can be further added. This should be enough...but if you still feel you wish to bring the temperature up from .....say the low 30's...you can put a light bulb...a bare light bulb above the box...close enough to give to the box some heat...but not too close. Incandescent light bulbs do get hot...you know that when you try to remove a bulb from the socket with your fingers....burny, burny. It does seem to be a lot of bother for a plant that maybe you could replace for a couple of bucks...I know that....but, like you, I have many geranium plants that I would not want to see harmed...and I go to extremes myself to keep them safe. Let's hope yours can be protected too. As a matter of fact, I have suggested my approach to wintering over geranium to a friend who lives in southern Indiana...French Lick is the name of the town...and she suggested she will try it. She's always just bought new plants in the spring. We just sent out a Christmas card to her...85 cents to mail to U.S. We pay 50 cents within Canada...the number of cards does seem to dwindle each year the post office tries to make a profit at our expense. Have a nice safe Christmas and a prosperous |
I know it's an awfully old thread but... I have a geranium that is important to me. It used to be very spindly so I cut it back. The piece I cut off I tried to root with no luck. Now the remaining little plant's leaves which were just at the ends of 2 short stems have dried and shriveled and it might be too late. It's September in Ny just south of Lake Ontario. Is there anything I can do? Is it the right time of year to attempt the above post? I've attached a photo. |

Sorry, but that plant looks very dead :-( I'm not sure I can tell you why just from that photo, but geraniums (pelargoniums) are very low care plants. Perhaps you just babied a bit too much? It also looks like it is indoors. While these types of geraniums can be overwintered indoors like any other houseplant, they would prefer to be outside during the growing season/summer months. They are also extremely easy to strike from cuttings. What kind of potting soil are you using and how did you care for the plant? More detailed information might provide more insight. |
The potting soil is miracle grow. It's been a couple weeks since it's been watered and a few months since repotting. It never seemed to take off after getting a new home. The soil is not moist. I'm a little concerned about watering at this point due to not having any real green leaves. Could it have just died of thirst? This plant is over 5 years old and has spent most of its life indoors. |

Update here from my the OP - that original plant didn't make it but I DID discover the 'magic formula' for the common geranium that I've had for a few years ow, at least I think so. Hope this helps someone. Remembering that I saw TONS of Geraniums blooming madly on outdoor balconie and stairs across Italy one summer reminds me they want: ITALIAN STYLE HEAT, ITALIAN STYLE SUNSHINE (real or faux!), a bit of balmy BREEZE, and let the rain take care of the rest - with only a bit of 'topping up' watering by me as needed. Following your advice, we basically treat them now like our orchids....lots of bright direct sun from the south facing windows, never water unless they are BONE dry, a humidifer, fan and big CFL lights shining on them during the dark months of Nov-Mar. Then all summer, the orchids and geranium enjoy sitting on the front and back porches "drinking in" the sunshine and putting out crazy amounts of healthy leaves, big new branches, and beautiful blooms. This has helped me hugely in keeping Miss Geranium II alive this time aorund - I hope she'll have a long and happy live thanks to you all! |

MiracleGro is about the worst potting soil you can use - doesn't drain well and far too moisture retentive. I really wouldn't be worried about watering now......unfortunately, I think your geranium is well beyond any watering help at this stage of the game :-( I'm not really sure how living all of its life indoors affected the plant but it may have had an influence. Anything other than tropical plants need some periods of rest or dormancy to kind of recharge their batteries for another growing season. And that dormancy period generally coincides with cold weather or winter in the northern hemisphere. Keeping it indoors year round deprives the plant of that dormant period and this can have the effect of weakening the plant over time. Keep this up long enough and the plant will decline and eventually die. This is why even bonsai growers move their stock outdoors during the summer months - it is enough of a temperature swing from the uniformity of indoor temps to create at least a pseudo-dormancy. FWIW, these are very inexpensive plants and easily replaced annually. In fact, they are almost always sold as seasonal color because wintering them over is almost more trouble than its worth to just repurchase as needed. Unless you are a plant geek or working on a very tight budget. Even then, they sell seed geranium starts in spring for less than a dollar!! |
geranium is one of the plants that, while an annual, it can come back --as good as...or maybe better than, it once was. With a healthy plant that can be put at a window that gives southern sun and treated as a houseplant and will serve very nicely. Where the question of whether the plant is viable I think the best approach is to think spring...... put the what's left of it...into a cool basement where it can be put on a shelf...and LEFT ALONE....NO WATER....NO LIGHT...NO FOOD....just left alone......where temperatures are above 40 F....it should never be allowed to freeze. |

I love DIY Lawn Twister. It is such a fun and affordable yard game for the summer! If you are looking for an outdoor party game this summer then this is it! DIY Lawn Twister is easy to make too! All you need is a four cans of spray paint and a stencil (made out of cardboard). My suggestion is make the circles close together like in the in the photo. Place the spinner beside and enjoy!

Oh Canada Eh? Dinner Show
Within an imposing log cabin in Niagara Falls exists one of the world's only opportunities to be served a steaming hot meal by a singing mountie. The tuneful do-gooder is joined by one of Green Gables' many Annes, a melodious hockey player, the inimitable Klondike Kitty, and other wacky national characters in the Oh Canada Eh? Dinner Show. Over its nearly two-decade run, the show has evolved to take in charting pop hits along with maritime folk songs and a rousing national-anthem closer. Between bouts of onstage hilarity, the performer/servers whoosh from table to red-checkered table bearing an authentic Canadian feast, from an opener of French Canadian pea soup to entrees including Alberta roast beef and Manitoba roast chicken. Humming along between bites, diners can sample any course they like and are welcome to ask for seconds. A round of maple-chocolate cake wraps up the extravaganza while providing an edible lumberjack beard of frosting.
Amazing show, fun for everyone, plus a great dinner

Kristin Walton – I am a NASM certified personal trainer, working on my BS in Nutrition, and lover of fitness and health. I grew up as a very competitive synchronized swimmer; the constant workouts and mind body connection started my love for fitness. Now I coach my own group of swimmers using the same training techniques I use for clients. I love providing workouts that are different and keep you guessing.
About 2 years ago, I started realizing how unhealthy my life was. Through the years of college I had gained weight due to drinking and eating fast food late at night. I finally had enough, as I watched myself buy bigger and bigger sizes I knew I wasn't living the healthy life I someday wanted to preach. I started off with yoga a few times a week and saw results, then slowly I started working out with a boot camp in my area and that's when my muscles really started to tone up. Slowly I fixed what I was eating, better portion sizes and quality of food. After that task was completed I kept a food journal, which is what I recommend to my clients as well. Making yourself write down and actually see what you are eating is the best tool I can recommend. After about a year, I lost 40 pounds and got my personal training certification to help others do exactly what I did.
My latest hobby has been running and I just completed my first half marathon. One day I'd love to be able to run the London marathon, I'll have to keep that in mind every time I run! I believe that to keep you from getting bored with your workouts you need to switch it up. I often make my clients try new equipment and different forms of cardio.

What Daniel said above is true. I didn't really have time to address or dispute all these issues (I'm not sure all of them were fixable). What's more, I don't think it is possible to get fbsplash merged at this point. Currently, the predominant vision for a themed console, with bell'n'whistles and stuff, is to do it completely in userspace (see the rather lengthy 'OpenGL-based framebuffer concepts' discussion [lkml, June 2006]). The idea is to do fbcon in userspace and keep only a very simple console driver in the kernel (for things such as printing oopses). Obviously, having the console completely in userspace makes it possible to do virtually anything with it -- the possibilities are by no means limited by just setting background images. I have to say I like this idea of a userspace console and plan to work on it after I'm finished with all the old stuff I'm stuck with right now. > I don't think fbsplash is too far away from possible kernel inclusion, > but vesafb-tng is.

Walking into Infusionsoft provides a bit of jolt.
For one thing, the lobby of the Gilbert software company has two massage chairs. Employees walk around kicking soccer balls back and forth. There's a cereal bar in the kitchen, and a basketball hoop and pool table at one end of the office.
And, oh yeah – most of the office sits on an artificial turf football field.
Infusionsoft is not your everyday company, but the Gilbert-based business is one of the more successful sales and marketing software companies in the industry – and one of the most popular to work at, appearing regularly on Valley and national "best places to work" lists.
And it's growing, too. Consistently adding new clients and employees since its inception in 2004, Infusionsoft has more than 10,000 customers, according to its website.
And the company is growing so much that it is moving at the end of this year to a larger Chandler location being built specifically for them. Yes, the new digs will include a turf football field.
"It's a good problem to have, growing so quickly that you run out of space," says Kimberlee Morrison, whose title with the company is "cultural evangelist."
While the football field existed when the company moved in, some of the other toys and perks "are rewards for a job well done," says Morrison.
Currently, the company has more than 300 employees. The new space, set to open up at the beginning of next year in the Price Road corridor, could accommodate as many as 1,000, depending on company growth.
When Infusionsoft began, it worked primarily with information marketers and consultants. It now works regularly with local service providers, small business retail and other businesses all across the country.
The company focuses on goals, and rewards success. Each department sets specific goals for the quarter and year. Whether it's the number of new clients added, or the percentage of clients kept, the company will reward individuals and departments based on their achievements.
If everyone's goals are achieved, the executive board will brainstorm a new reward for the employees. Last quarter was a catered lunch every Wednesday, paid for by the company.
Sometimes the perks are suggestions from employees. There is a constant communication network in the office known as "the cereal bowl," where ideas for perks can be posted.
It's no surprise the business has been voted one of the best places to work for several years by The Phoenix Business Journal. The company also has been featured in national publications such as Forbes, Business Week, Inc. Magazine's "Inc. 500" and FastCompany.
The company is proud of its culture, and it offers the public monthly tours of its facilities.
"It's an amazing place to be," says Bryan Hatch, account manager at Infusionsoft. "It's totally different; it throws a lot of business up on its head."
While a lot of people would think an environment with so many toys could be distracting, Hatch has a different way of describing it.
"We work hard, play hard; that's the best way to put it," Hatch said.
"It might look like we're having a lot of fun, and I think it's because when you hire people for fit, then they sort of can work in this collaborative environment," Morrison said. "But everyone is working their (tails) off."
Infusionsoft was created by a couple of entrepreneurs, Clate Mask and Scott Martineau, who wanted to give small business owners the potential to advertise with more impact. At first, it started as email marketing, but eventually the company developed an all-in-one package that covers sales, marketing and social media in one platform.
What makes the best work environment for the business, Hatch said, is "figuring out what needs to happen and then giving us the freedom to work within those problems that we're trying to solve."

Enter a world that is enchanting, violent and full of nefarious creatures as well as heroes and warriors, and you've entered Norrath, a virtual country in the online game EverQuest--and the 77th richest country in the world, according to economics professor Edward Castronova at California State University, Fullerton.
According to the Interactive Digital Software Association, the number of users of online gaming sites is growing 12 to 15 percent per month, and some 111 million people will play online games by 2005. The opportunity for entrepreneurs, however, is more likely in advergaming-games created to help corporate clients attract users to their sites.
"An advergame has to feel like a game. If [consumers] think it's an advertisement, it won't fly," says Dan Ferguson, 35, a founding father of adver-gaming and co-founder of Dallas-based game developer Blockdot Inc.
One way start-ups can steer clear of that roadblock is to avoid pooling talent in a single area. "You're going to have a group that is very technology-savvy but not so creative," says Ferguson. "So they can make very solid games--with no sex appeal. It doesn't get people excited. Balance it out."
Ferguson says Blockdot's average advergame costs about $50,000. "You can even do a simple tic-tac-toe game [for about $10,000]," he says. With clients that include GM, M&M's and Volkswagen, Blockdot expects 2002 sales of $1.4 million. And there's room for growth. Forrester Research predicts advergaming will generate $1 billion by 2005. Overall, online gaming is expected to reach $5.6 billion by 2005, according to research firm Jupiter Media Metrix. Perhaps by then Norrath will be in the top 50.

Dover Shores Baptist Church
Orlando, Fla.
I participated in an hour of prayer outside the Planned Parenthood office here in Orlando today. I have trained as a sidewalk counselor for Pro Life Action Ministries, and as a post-abortion counselor for men with the Cornerstone Crises Pregnancy Center.
"Ask the Theologian" is a radio program launched and hosted by Dr. Randy White, pastor of First Baptist Church in Katy, Texas. As a blogging pastor and contributing writer for SBCToday, Dr. White granted the following interview to relate his motivations and aspirations regarding this new ministry venture.
(Comments pre-moderated)
When did "Ask the Theologian" launch?
We launched a beta version on the Internet last fall. The program officially launched on radio stations the weekend of January 18, 2014. Our prayer is to have 100 radio stations in the first year.
What reasons motivated you to inaugurate this ministry?
Theology is so absent from the church today. Almost everything that a Christian can find in sermons, Bible studies, Christian books, and even seminars and conferences is "felt-need" oriented. The development of good theological thinkers is essential to a healthy future of the church. I am worn out with the "Twitter theology," as I call it, which encapsulates a pithy doctrinal saying into a few words, but is often not even biblically valid. Yet, because it sounds good and is about the Bible, Christians like it, post it, retweet it, and praise it. It is time for Christians to question the assumptions of these statements. Sadly, many sermons and Bible studies have become Twitter theology, but with a longer character space.
by Norm Miller
"Consider it all joy, my brethren, when you encounter various trials" James 1.2.
Yeah, right!
Isn't that how we secretly react to this verse?
Who counts it all joy to stare down cancer, deal with a recalcitrant teen, or work for an over-bearing boss? I'm not sure who truly does, but I know who should – all God's children. The context of the verse says a joyous reaction to troubles tests our faith, produces endurance and brings us -- God's children -- to maturity in Christ.
The verse is as interesting as it is challenging. The word translated consider is a verb meaning -- do it now and once for all; so, there's no room to decide when we'll be joyful or which trials we'll endure joyfully. Just make up your mind now to be joyful always, come what may, rain or shine.
The word encounter means, literally, to fall into, just as the man who fell among the thieves in Luke 10.30. As the thieves sought to rob the man, so do trials and tribulations attempt to steal the joy we have determined to express in the face of such theft.
The word translated various has a connection to the Old Testament word that describes Joseph's many-colored coat. Have you ever thought of trials as being multi-colored? Well, have you ever been blue with sadness? Ever been green with envy? So mad you saw purple? What about the yellow trials of cowardice when trying to witness for Christ? The black of guilty sin?
"What can wash away my sin? / Nothing but the blood of Jesus."
Now there's a color that was spilt in the trial, endured the trial and conquered the trial. And it is still powerful today, the red blood of Jesus Christ, which cleanses us from sin and brings joy.
Sermon excerpt
Preached 1-31-93
Text: Eph. 4:6,13
And as I entered into it I thought of my own life as a student. When I went to Baylor University I was seventeen years of age and a young minister. When I went to the university every afternoon I took my Bible and I visited those slums between the school and the Brazos River. All up and down that Brazos River were slums. I would knock at the door, knock at the door, and I would introduce myself with a Bible in my hand. And I would say my name and that I am a Christian. "Are you Christians here?" And if they said "Yes," I would say, "May I come in and pray with you and read the Bible with you?" If they would say, "No. We're not Christians here," I would say, "May I come in and show you how to be saved, how to go to heaven and how to have Jesus in your heart and home?" I did that the years I was at Baylor every afternoon in those slums from house to house.

Yesterday, I went to preach knowing that I didn't feel well. I'd been fighting a cold for several days, but knew that it was definitely getting worse. I was starting to cough more and grow weak. (I made note of it from the pulpit and explained that I wouldn't be shaking any hands that morning because I didn't want to take a chance on making anybody sick.)
I preached the first service and my iPad had a "hiccup" about half way through the message. Thankfully, our A/V guys had put a paper copy of my message in the pulpit like I had asked them one time nearly two years ago.
There were a few folks who came to pray at the altar, but no other decisions. I rested during the Sunday School hour, but was definitely feeling worse. I started preaching the second hour, and I could tell that my voice was getting even more hoarse. Oh, and my iPad crashed again. But, when the invitation was extended, three people prayed to trust Christ and three more came to join the church. His strength was definitely made perfect through my weakness.

Following a rough week in which she fainted during rehearsals, reality TV star Lisa Vanderpump was the latest star to be voted off the ballroom floor of ABC's "Dancing With the Stars."
"It's been six long weeks I have to say, and boy, it's taken a toll," Vanderpump told ABC News backstage after her elimination. "It's the hardest thing I've ever done."
Vanderpump, who stars in "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills," had struggled throughout the competition. Her busy schedule combined with the grueling physical requirements of rehearsal led to her collapse during practice this past weekend, and judges acknowledged that her performance of the cha cha cha on Monday had suffered due to the lack of rehearsal.
"It was just a perfect storm. It was just swollen glands, a fever, my blood pressure was low, everything," Vanderpump explained.
Vanderpump, 51, smiled when the results were announced on the show Tuesday night, and thanked her pro dance partner, Gleb Savchenko, saying being paired with him was "a gift."
"Thank you for giving me a last dance," Savchenko told her. "It was really good."
Vanderpump's daughter also praised her mother's accomplishments on the show.
"She is incredible. Amazing," Pandora Sabo said. "It is so inspirational to watch. She is my hero."

Vanderpump and boxer Victor Ortiz had been the two lowest scorers following their performances on Monday night – where she tied with Ortiz for last place. The star with the lowest overall total after judges' scores and viewer votes are combined is the one who is voted off the show. Country music legend Wynonna Judd was eliminated from the competition last week.
Tuesday's show featured live performances from country music star Brad Paisley, and a duet from pop star Jennifer Lopez and opera legend Andrea Bocelli.
Returning to the competition on Monday are Ortiz, Olympic gymnast Aly Raisman, Disney star Zendaya, country music singer Kellie Pickler, NFL player Jacoby Jones, soap opera star Ingo Rademacher, comedians Andy Dick and D.L. Hughley, and reality TV star Sean Lowe. "Dancing With the Stars" is now in its 16th season.

"The first and the Best"
Science fiction comedy series created by Douglas Adams
< read all 55 reviewsThis book has the spirit of Monty Python in its writing (the author worked with the comedy troupe later on in their years together). If you like Flying Circus and love science fiction then you should definitely pick up a copy. The humor is wry, witty, and completely out of this world (lame pun I know).

I thought I would post this for other South home apple growers wanting to try Jonagold.
My Jonagold from Cummins on dwarf rootstock in its third year bloomed well and is setting fruit with 660 chill hours based on accumulated temps below 45F. |

Just a reply to get it to drop on down. |

I bought two Dwarf Jonagold from Home depot. They are some of the best apple trees I have bought from them. Lots of horizontal branches. The graft on them is very nice and not buried in the container like most Home Depot container apple tree. I just read that the European beer company stella makes hard cider from Jonagold. So I'm looking forward to using them in the coming years for cider. |
It will fruit on a lot less than 660 hours; a friend swore by them at his house in Santa Ana, California at about 300 hours. I tried it here farther inland but it was always mushy. |

I read somewhere Honey Crisp would go soft in zone 8 as well but I keep thinking about trying it anyway just to see for myself. |
