God² - how science and religion rub along
Protests by atheists against last week's papal visit to the UK have highlighted the age old friction between religion and science. But for hundreds of years thinkers with a foot in both camps have sought to reconcile these two beliefs, says Dr Thomas Dixon.
Professor Stephen Hawking's declaration last month, that physics no longer has any need for God has been making headlines.
His new book The Grand Design uses something called M-theory to claim that the laws of physics created our universe unaided. The cosmic fireworks of the Big Bang needed no supernatural spark to set them off. They can apparently light themselves, in an endless succession of universes, like those candles on birthday cakes that are impossible to blow out.
So, is Prof Hawking's denial of the deity just one more example of an age-old conflict between science and religion? Does history suggest that these two great human endeavours are destined to be forever locked in battle? Not exactly.
There have been plenty of rocky moments in the relationship between faith and science, perhaps most famously the condemnation of Galileo by the Inquisition in Rome in 1633.
Errors and heresiesCommon sense, science, and the Church had all supported the view that the Earth was stationary at the centre of the cosmos. But Galileo used observations made with his telescope to argue that the Earth was moving around the Sun.
"Start Quote
End Quote Dr Thomas DixonScience and religion have had the kind of close and troubled relationship you would expect between siblings or spouses"
According to some versions of the legend, Galileo was imprisoned and even tortured by the Catholic church. Neither of these things happened, but he was condemned for heresy, kept under house arrest, and forced to declare that he cursed and detested the "errors and heresies" of his scientific work.
The church repented of this scientific misjudgement at its leisure, removing works by Galileo from the index of banned books only in the 19th Century.
Then there was the famous rumpus over Moses and monkeys in Victorian Britain, when some Christians attacked Charles Darwin's theory of evolution on the grounds that it contradicted the Bible.
In Oxford in 1860, less than a year after the publication of On The Origin of Species, the tome which laid the groundwork for the theory, there was a famous spat between the Samuel Wilberforce, Bishop of Oxford, and the biologist Thomas Huxley.
Legend has it that Wilberforce, in front of a packed auditorium, asked Huxley whether he claimed descent from a monkey on the side of his grandfather or his grandmother.
It was a Victorian bishop's idea of a joke. But Huxley didn't see the funny side and, white with rage, rose to reply, rather piously, that he would rather be descended from an ape than a bishop, especially one who used his intellectual powers to introduce levity into a serious discussion.
Ape relationsAt the time of writing his great work, Darwin himself believed in God, writing about a creator who imposed laws on matter and breathed life into nature.
"There is grandeur in this view of life," Darwin concluded, and many have subsequently agreed.
Today there are high-profile evolutionists who combine their science with religious faith.
Kenneth Miller is a Roman Catholic biologist who campaigns against the latest form of creationism to take hold in parts of America, Intelligent Design. The former head of the Human Genome Project, Francis Collins, combines Protestant belief with his work as a geneticist (and with a much less successful sideline as a religious folk-singer, which can be sampled on YouTube).
Near Darwin's grave in Westminster Abbey is that of another god of science, Sir Isaac Newton, who held the Lucasian Professorship of mathematics at Cambridge three centuries before Stephen Hawking.
We can guess what Newton would have thought of the theological conclusions of his successor. Atheism, Newton wrote, is "senseless and odious". For his own part, Newton was certain that the order of the cosmos revealed a God who was "very skilled in mechanics and geometry", a God who rather resembled Newton himself.
Vomiting bugDuring the centuries that separated Newton and Darwin, many of the greatest minds saw science piling up evidence for the existence of God. Such treatises celebrated the power and goodness of God as revealed through everything from the hive-making instincts of bees and the beauty of orchids, to the engineering marvels of the human hand and eye.

Today, supporters of the Intelligent Design movement find evidence of the power and goodness of God in the rotating tail or "flagellum" of the E. coli bacterium.
For some it is a surprise, perhaps, to learn that the clearest sign of God's intelligence is to be found in a nasty vomiting bug.
Traditional religious beliefs have undoubtedly come under pressure from science over the past 400 years. The findings of modern astronomy, geology, and biology have all made it quite clear that the books of Moses, if read as scientific texts, are complete failures.
But, of course, they need not be read that way. Galileo voiced a widely-held view when he said that the Bible told you how to go to heaven, not how the heavens go.
Science and religion have had the kind of close and troubled relationship you would expect between siblings or even spouses. They share not only wonder at the majesty of the world we can see, but also a desire to find out what's behind it that we can't.
That emotional and intellectual hunger will endure longer than Professor Hawking's M-theory, and those wishing to take a truly scientific attitude may be better advised to follow the lead of the great Victorian agnostic Thomas Huxley who, in one of the last things that he wrote before he died asked "Is it not better to keep silence about matters which speech is incompetent to express; to be content with revolving in the deeps of the mind the infinite possibilities of the unknown?"
Dr Thomas Dixon is author of Science and Religion: A Very Short Introduction and is senior lecturer in History at Queen Mary, University of London.
Below is a selection of your comments
It's never been anything but power and politics - there's no middle-ground (ask Dawkins). Dixon says, "Common sense, science, and the Church," but what science is he talking about? In ancient times it was common sense that the earth went around the sun, and nobody mentions Giordano Bruno, burned by the church for the same reasons. PC talk will only make the conflict linger.
Dixon seems to suggest we should reserve a special place for God in the fading shadows not yet illuminated by science. I see good reason to keep our minds open to "infinite possibilities of the unknown", yet, there are degrees of uncertainty, and one of the least likely possibilities is the existence of a God. We have little need for a God to explain what we do not know, so I'm left feeling that Hawkings' point is far more pertinent; if we do not need a God to explain our Universe, why keep him? The only role I see for a God is not to explain but to comfort.
Again your article credits religion with the same factual credibility as science by saying they are siblings. Religion of any description is a collection rules and stories that those in power or aspiring to be in control of others use to justify human emotions and desires. It provides both a comfort blanket for those not capable or willing to accept the reality they live in. Science is a statement of fact or as close as we can come to fact based on the collective history of the human race up to this point in time.
Science and (Christian) religion are concerned with totally different things, so conflict only arises when the Church is an especially intolerant phase. The Biblical picture of God is too vague too play any role in the exact sciences and the Bible was never intended as a scientific textbook. Believers who are adamant that God (which one?) exists for real and atheists who claim that God is just a myth both have their own truth; there is no single universally applicable answer. Not all religions require the existence of Gods.
Nice article. Ultimately it all comes down to this. Either we came about from 'Nothing' or we were created by an 'Uncreated Being'. Nothing is the absence of 'something' and in conclusion doesnt 'exist' so consequently is an impossibility, therefore in my opinion we only have one option left.
Comments: I'm still at a loss at how so called 'science' has disproved the existence of God. Throw away comments suggesting that science has proved the Bible's account of creation to be nothing more than a fable is way off mark and wholly inaccurate. I would argue that the fossil record 100% supports the Bible's account of creation and actually undermines evolution - even Darwin himself was perplexed by the fossil record and its lack of evidence for his theories. Dating methods are all based on assumptions which many scientists disagree with and many scientists are Bible believing Christians too - not Theistic Evolutionists who are pandering to the secular world.
I am a rational and law abiding man and try to help physically, mentally, socially handicapped persons to the best my ability not because I am a believer but because I feel it to be my social commitment. I prefer to call me an aethist but at times I wonder at the vastness and diversities in this Universe and there are infinite numbers of them beyond our conception. At times I feel it is better to designate me as agnostic, ie, if there be God, let him be there, I need not quarrel with him or his agents on this earth represented by champions of various religions.
Finally a sensible voice in this ridiculous debate between science and religion. Science doesn't disprove religion, it explains how the world works. Religion doesn't trump science, and just because it was written in a book 2000 years ago doesn't make it disprove modern scientific theories such as Evolution. Both science and religion change over time, science as new things are discovered, and religion as it has to evolve to keep up with how the world works.

This weekend, Syfy debuts its own version of the Peter Pan tale, Neverland, and it's a little different than the story we know so well. This prequel is a creative version of the classic tale, complete with a pre-Neverland Peter, who's a young lad under not-yet-Captain-Hook's wing. We learn about how he ended up in Neverland, what happened to Mr. Hook, how Tinker Bell became his right-hand lady, and just exactly what this magical Neverland place really does.
We had a chance to chat with the star of the miniseries, Charlie Rowe, to get the inside scoop on the series from the new Peter himself. The series also stars Keira Knightley as the voice of TinkerBell, Rhys Ifans as Hook, and Bob Hoskins as Smee (yet again). Watch our chat below and be sure to tune into SyFy Sunday, Dec. 4 and Monday, Dec. 5 at 8 p.m. ET/PT.

AQAP kills Houthi military commander
In addition to al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula's increasing activity in southern Yemen, the terror group has also been conducting operations against the Shia Houthis in the northern province of Sa'ada. In a statement released on jihadist websites, AQAP claimed it killed a Houthi military commander. An excerpt of the statement, which has been translated by the SITE Intelligence Group, is below:
Your brothers penetrated their fortifications and camps, and two days ago, the left side of the mujahideen front advanced towards the center of the city of Kataf, and they are 500 meters away from it. This city is about 25 kilometers away from the center of Damaj and after it is Khaniq, then Dmaj.Your brothers were able to kill the [Shi'ite] military commander Abu Ali al-Hakim with a sticky device that was fastened to his vehicle while he was in a restaurant. This [Shi'ite] swore a day before his killing that he would attack al-Bariq Mountain (a mountain directly overlooking the center) and enjoy the women of Damaj, may Allah shame him.
AQAP has been targeting the Shia in the north for years, often with the support of the Yemeni government, which seeks to crush the Houthi rebels. In November 2010, an AQAP suicide bomber killed 17 people, including a top Houthi leader and his son.
In early Decemebr, AQAP officially declared war on the Houthis. Ibrahim Suleiman al Rubaish, al Qaeda in Arabian Peninsula's Mufti, issued the announcement and called the Shia a "virus" on the Sunni people. Rubaish was held at the Guantanamo Bay detention facility before he was released in 2006.
READER COMMENTS: "AQAP kills Houthi military commander"
Posted by Nic at December 30, 2011 3:39 PM ET:
" Rubaish was held at the Guantanamo Bay detention facility before he was released in 2006. " Once again a member of the Gitmo Alumni Club comes back to haunt us. How many times has this happened before? Closing Gitmo ranks right up there with 1941 security at Pearl Harbor. Way to go Obi!
Posted by Charles at December 30, 2011 6:00 PM ET:
Refresh my memory, Nic. Who was president in 2006, when Rubaish was released? Gitmo is a public relations disaster, not to mention being expensive as hell to run. It should be closed. There's a brand new, unused prison in Montana that would love to house the worst of the worst who can't be released.
Posted by Bengal Voice at December 31, 2011 2:08 AM ET:
Just curious... What was the actual word used in the statement instead of "[Shi'ite]" ? Did the Wahhabis use the derogatory term "Rafidi" or something else?
Posted by Big Sky at December 31, 2011 1:09 PM ET:
Speak for yourself Charles, Montana wants no part in any gitmo prisoners put em in your state or better yet kill them
Posted by Fatman at January 1, 2012 11:29 AM ET:
What's the size of the Shia population? Do they have the critical mass to sustain pressure from both the government and AQAP?
Posted by Mike Merlo at January 1, 2012 8:31 PM ET:
re:Big Sky
I'd be more than happy to 'house' the Gitmo 'vacationeer's.'
Posted by Will Fenwick at January 2, 2012 12:34 PM ET:
The Shia's had enough support and strength to survive a Saudi offensive against them in 2009, and rebounded stronger than ever. Their armed strength has been estimated recently at around 100,000, and they get support and materiel from the Iranians. Historically the Shia's in northern yemen were supporters of the Yemeni monarchy and their has been unrest in the north ever since the North Yemen Civil War in the 1960's. If they wanted to they are strong enough to break away and form their own state in the areas they control, but they seem content at the moment with what they have, besides regularly clashing with the salafists that border their areas of control.

Parmesan Garlic Straw recipe. These babies are the perfect little pre dinner appetizers.
They are super pretty, especially if you nail the twist pre bake. I prefer to serve these in a glass, or a something like a weck jar to show off their long slender shape. You could totally pair these with a myriad of dipping sauces if you wanted, but they are also just perfect by themselves. Sweet Potato Biscuits Recipe. Yes, dough is stickywent with the buttermilk and I think that gave it enough extra acid...
TIP for those who don't know: if you let the biscuits touch on the cookie sheet instead of sitting apart, they well kind of work together and help get a better rise. if there's nothing to hang on to, they may not lift as much... mind rose fine and were extremely moist while fully cooked... added a few extras, like ground black pepper, a little cinnamon and a touch of chipotle powder.. will make them often.
Thibeault's Table: Italian Garlic Bread with Gorgonzola. Last night we had dinner with our wonderful neighbours Barb and Clif.
Barb is only home one week a month as she works out of town. So when she is home we usually have dinner together at least once or twice. Since it was a work day for me, I decided to make my favourite pasta sauce - Sausage and Rosemary - something I could put on in the morning and then just reheat. For a quick appetizer we had little cocktail toasts topped with warm goat cheese, a toasted walnut half and a drizzle of olive oil.
A nice little bite that goes well with a glass of red wine. Jalepeno Cheddar Spoon Bread. It's really awesome when two great things come together into one.
For instance, R2D2 and C3PO, Harry Potter and magic, bread and butter, and corn and spoon bread. So, I give you: jalapeño cheddar spoon bread! This recipe is corn bread in a souffle pudding texture situation. Ok, i know what you're thinking. Why would I choose jalapeno cheddar spoon bread over regular corn bread? Chocolate Chip Coconut Banana Bread recipe. While the work piles up, and time off is non-existent, staying sane for me happens with the little things.
Here are some of my little things: 1. Do something that makes you feel pretty. Crusty Bread. I must begin by saying where the recipe originated, if in fact it originated anywhere...really.
I think bread has been baked for centuries using flour, salt, water, and yeast or other form of leavening. As far as I know the recipe for "No-Knead" bread dough was printed in the New York times. Gingerbread Ale Beer Bread. Beer bread is simple.
A few ingredients creates a soft, but dense bread. The basic principle is to use the beer as the yeast. Although beer is great in this capacity, adding a leavening agent like baking soda, or self rising flour, is important to help keep the bread from becoming too dense. The simple ingredients open the possibility to so many different types of flavorings. Salted Hefeweizen Brioche Rolls. Napa SmithWheat is a perfect baking beer.
It has crisp, clean flavors, sweetness and bold tones that hold up to the oven. A smooth wheat beer with citrus and peach notes. Jalapeno Pale Ale Cornbread. The past few weeks I've been craving summer.
I live in Los Angeles, so feel free to laugh at my inability to cope with a mild seasonal chill. It isn't so much the weather of the Summer months that I miss, but the culture of the season. Cheddar Beer Bread Muffins. I've noticed something about you.
You seem to have no interest in healthy beer recipes. You want your beer recipes to be a flagrant indulgence of full flavored stimulation. Beer Tortillas. Tortillas are one of those glorious foods that I have found myself continuing to make from scratch. It wasn't an epiphany that wakened me from my supermarket tortilla grabbing slumber, it was a gradual process. Tortillas are easy, and you probably have all of the ingredients in your kitchen already. And the end product will finally convince you that you no longer need that plastic bag full or pre-made taco vessels. Artichoke Bread. With the big game day approaching I have been thinking about snacks more.
Last weekend I got the chance to try making an artichoke bread that has been on my mind for a while. The artichoke bread is essentially an artichoke dip that is baked on bread until the crust of the bread perfectly light and crispy, the dip is nice and warm, the cheesy topping is melted and golden brown. Raspberry- Dark Chocolate Banana Bread. Thursday, May 3, 2012 Raspberry- Dark Chocolate Banana Bread This week I made a ridiculously delicious Raspberry- Dark Chocolate Banana Bread.
You know it has to be good because my teacher, my family, and I all LOVED it. Cheesy Garlic Cauliflower Bread Sticks. 332K+A few days back I made pizza from Cauliflower and it turned out awesome. So I started thinking... what about garlic cheese bread? Oh yeah... it turned out even more awesome. This recipe is going to make you happy if you are grain free or Celiac. I wish I would have known about this recipe back in the days I was trying the Atkins diet!
Super Yummy!
Bloomin' Onion Bread. My husband and I waited tables at Outback Steakhouse while we were in college and ate our share of Bloomin' Onions. But the funny thing is we never actually ordered them. If a table ordered a Bloomin' Onion and canceled the order, the onion would sit in the window until another table ordered one which was usually just a matter of minutes. But every once in a while there would be a lull where no orders would come in and the "Bloom" was pronounced "dead", meaning it would not be served to customers, and all the servers got to eat it.
For some reason we always came to work starving so when this happened we ate our little hearts out. Texas Roadhouse Sweet Rolls and Special Butter.

Inhibitor of growth 1 (ING1) is implicated in oncogenesis, DNA damage repair, and apoptosis. Mutations within the ING1 gene and altered expression levels of ING1 are found in multiple human cancers. Here, we show that both DNA repair and apoptotic activities of ING1 require the interaction of the C-terminal plant homeodomain (PHD) finger with histone H3 trimethylated at Lys4 (H3K4me3). The ING1 PHD finger recognizes methylated H3K4 but not other histone modifications as revealed by the peptide microarrays. The molecular mechanism of the histone recognition is elucidated based on a 2.1 A-resolution crystal structure of the PHD-H3K4me3 complex. The K4me3 occupies a deep hydrophobic pocket formed by the conserved Y212 and W235 residues that make cation-pi contacts with the trimethylammonium group. Both aromatic residues are essential in the H3K4me3 recognition, as substitution of these residues with Ala disrupts the interaction. Unlike the wild-type ING1, the W235A mutant, overexpressed in the stable clones of melanoma cells or in HT1080 cells, was unable to stimulate DNA repair after UV irradiation or promote DNA-damage-induced apoptosis, indicating that H3K4me3 binding is necessary for these biological functions of ING1. Furthermore, N216S, V218I, and G221V mutations, found in human malignancies, impair the ability of ING1 to associate with H3K4me3 or to induce nucleotide repair and cell death, linking the tumorigenic activity of ING1 with epigenetic regulation. Together, our findings reveal the critical role of the H3K4me3 interaction in mediating cellular responses to genotoxic stresses and offer new insight into the molecular mechanism underlying the tumor suppressive activity of ING1.

My best friend in High School was Sandi.
This morning, Sandi posted the photograph above to Facebook, along with the following narrative.
A few years ago, under circumstances far too complicated for me to even attempt to explain (don't worry, nobody died), she took guardianship of her two toddler nephews, and as an always-been-single Mom, she's done a bang-up job raising them.
So far.
I just had to share.
After midnight, and I hear banging in J's closet, which is on the other side of mine. He doesn't stop, so I go to his door. It's locked.
I yell at him to open it-- the rule is No Locked Doors.
No answer.
I pound and yell again, and hear a distant, "Mom? I'm locked in."
"Get your ass over hear and turn the damned lock now!"
"I can't. I'm locked in the closet."
It took quite awhile to get to the point I could pop the lock. It was very secure.
I go in. The closet doesn't lock, but it is shut all the way.
There's a handle on the other side, but no J.
Then I look up and see this. I'm partially in awe, and it's the only thing keeping me from killing him.
He poked his head down and explained, "The wind came in and shut the door. "
And that is supposed to suffice.
"Why the hell are you up there?!?!!"
"It's really cool, I can stand up here, there's stuff here too," he says, very nonchalantly, like my vessels aren't popping out of my face.
"I can't."
"How in the name of God did you get up there?!"
"I don't know."
"Child, presumably your head has been with your body all evening. How did your body get there?!"
"I just swung my feet up. Can you push that desk over?"
I finished trying to remove the lock, took the pic, and went back to bed.
That shelf is very sturdy. He can stand up to almost full height, too.
I figured he'd either get down or I'd hear a thud or I'd get him in the morning.
Eventually he got down without noise or injury.
I'm not going to survive his teen years.
Sandi is awesome
(you are too)
you just have to be amazed at how that kid got up on that shelf in that little teeny space, dontcha? she did the right thing, leaving him up there. now's when things get really inventive ...
And you were wise. I love my son ... but given a redo, I'd have specialized in safe sex a/k/a a Vasectomy and raised guppies as my kids (which when they piss you off, are flushable).
Loved it all; props to Sandi!
I was up cleaning the gutters and the vents on a hot and windy day. It was sunny and I was loving the heat. Well, taking account of the wind I positioned the ladder so that I thought the wind wouldn't blow it over. It stayed put the whole time, except for the moment that I started heading for it. *CRASH* and it fell over.
We have 10' ceilings and sloping ground and put rocks and stones around the foundation so I am stuck up there wondering how I'll get down without ending up needing an ambulance.
Being a hot day and living on a major highway I start waving at the cars going by. Most of the occupants just wave back. Some look at each other and I can tell they are wondering about my sanity. 'What the hell is a grown man doing on the roof waving at us?' An hour passes...
Finally a red car rolls past. A rather pretty blond is at the wheel. I wave. She coyly waves back... I actually see the car go back the other direction and wave again. She waves back... Then the car comes back the original direction and slows down. Her look is one of curiosity... 'Who is that?' She pulls in to the driveway and starts a slow drive up the longish driveway...
She is sitting in her car apparently contemplating the situation. Why is this man on the roof of this house waving at me. I should also point out that I'm wearing a skin tight Under Armor top and Under Armor shorts. The ladder has fallen behind a low wall around my patio and can't be seen from the road or the driveway.
She slowly gets out of her car with a rather strange look on her face.
She speaks: 'Do I know you? Do you know me?' I say no but you were driving by. More curious, she asks why I waved at her (as if I only waved at her). I said that I was stuck. I was up cleaning and the ladder blew down and I can't get down and that I was the knight in distress looking for a damsel to save him. She laughs... I say that I was dead serious. I'd been stuck up here for well over an hour waving at people to help me... She stops walking and is looking at me. I guess she noticed my attire. I have sandals on too. No socks. I bet I looked like something that her mother told her to stay away from.
Nervously I add that the ladder is over there and walk to the area and point down. Now, apparently thinking this is a con, she walks over slowly and then finally sees the ladder. 'It's not that windy today' she says. Yeah, I know, not now but there have been some stiff gusts (wincing at the innuendo potentially implied in that word) and just then (there is a god?) one hits.
She starts smiling and chuckles again at the predicament that I'm in... She walks over and looks at the ladder. 'It looks very heavy. I might not be able to lift it.' It's a beefy looking fiberglass ladder. I tell her that it's fiberglass and actually very light. She starts to pick it up cautiously and then sees that it is very light. She comments that I should have put it somewhere else so that it didn't have a chance of blowing down... Yeah, I thought that myself. After it fell...
I gratefully climb down the ladder and she is able to see, and smell (no shower either as I was going to take one after I got through) me and thank her profusely for her help in rescuing me. She laughs again as I thank her, a damsel saving a knight in distress.
I tell her to come over anytime that I'm on that patio cooking for some fish or a veggieburger and she says that she might do that... I asked her why she stopped and she said that she thought that I knew her. I said that I was glad that I made her curious and that she stopped... I was getting worried because my wife didn't get off work for another three hours... And I doubt that she would have helped me down without much laughing and pictures and a lecture on taking my cellphone with me. (the mystery woman asked the same thing. I said that I was 'only going to be there for a few minutes' which prompted a smile and a laugh. I think we made each others day that day)
The damned wind can do a whole lot to embarrass someone...
So, if you see a man waving on a roof, dressed in Under Armor and sandals and you wonder what the hell he could be doing up there, just sigh, chuckle, and say 'not again' and please stop and rescue him... It might be me...

I remember reading a long time ago about a common chemical which does the same job as Lime-Away and for less money.. Anyone know what that is?
phosphoric acid is probably the ingrediant in Lime away, that is what is smells like. Vinegar would probably work as well
Lime away, aka CLR is glycolic acid solution, I guess it is used because it is a mild organic acid (kinda like citric but with an alpha hydroxy group) yet it is strong enough to dissolve basic deposits in a reasonable time. A cheap substitute would be phosphoric acid or even cheaper muriatic (HCl) that has been diluted, if you have the neccesary protective equipment. Phosphoric doesnt fume but it can be hard to find.
Muriatic acid.. serious etching and dissolution. Vinegar....for very gentle action. SM
Thanks... We are using the vinegar now.. Works good.
Phosphoric is easily available at Lowes etc if you look for 'concrete etch". Much of it is phosphoric. Great rust remover, and unlike muriatic, it will not spread rust all through your shop
Is that the same that goes by the name Ospho? spelling?
Originally Posted by JST Phosphoric is easily available at Lowes etc if you look for 'concrete etch". Much of it is phosphoric. Great rust remover, and unlike muriatic, it will not spread rust all through your shop I've been using peletized acid that I believe is phosphoric to clean the screens in my well. Does anyone know if concrete etch would be a locally available substitute. Clutch
Originally Posted by rj newbould Is that the same that goes by the name Ospho? spelling? That is a specialty version which contains, but may have other stuff besides, phosphoric. I think it is specifically a paint pre-treat, with extras.
If you have a Dollar Tree near by they sell a product called "The Works Tub and Shower Cleaner" . The stuff works great. I use it on my boat to clean that scum and stains that get on fiberglass. It costs $1. a bottle. The hull cleaner at the boat store cost $10. The cheap stuff works just as good. You can smell some kind of acid in it.
Dpmn't ever use muratic acid indoors. The fumes travel everywhere causing rust, lifting chrome, and inflicting general mischief in the most unespected places. The fumes even migrate through plastic jugs. Use phosphoiric acid for general etching and lime removal. If you have more time use acetic acid like white vinegar.
IMO hands down a product called "Iron Out" is the alternative to lime away. The odor is strong but the out come is good.

Why Do Dowry Deaths Happen?
Dowry deaths occur as a brutal traditional norm in some societies in which the in-law family of the bride harasses her until her unnatural death due to the perceived inadequate dowry. The harassment may be directed by the in-laws in an effort to either receive more money or valuable possessions in dowry or simply to tease and torture the bride. Dowry deaths are a gender crime and is said to have many more reasons other than just the dowry.
The practice of dowry deaths is prevalent in countries in South Asia including Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, Nepal and Sri Lanka. One of the main reasons behind dowry deaths is that women are considered economically inferior and unproductive in the societies where this practice is prevalent. Furthermore, the objectification of women as the legal possession of the in-laws also contributes to the torture and harassment that ensues after the marriage. Despite the modernization of urban societies in these countries, the dowry death rates remain alarmingly high. The United Nations recognize dowry deaths and bride burning as prominent forms of violence against women.
Most of dowry deaths are either harassment-driven suicides or homicide disguised as accidents and suicide. Bride burning or the immolation of the bride of the family is one way how women die in this form of violence. Dowry deaths are a serious social issue in India, Pakistan and Bangladesh, and their prevalence is not confined to any one religious community. Pakistan has the highest number of reported cases of dowry deaths per 100,000 persons in the world, with the rate of more than 2.45 per year.
Despite legislation against dowry and the related deaths in countries such as India and Pakistan, complex social and cultural factors cause dowry death rate to persist with offenders going largely unpunished. International Human Rights organizations have criticized the governments of these countries for not taking enough measures to prevent dowry deaths.

BRA (Breast Reconstruction Awareness) Day USA is an initiative designed to promote education, awareness and access regarding post-mastectomy breast reconstruction. It is an event that occurs annually in October, during Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and it is designed to "close the loop" on breast cancer.
Now in its third year in the U.S., the theme for the year is "BRAve" in recognition of the many faces of breast cancer and the individual journeys after a breast cancer diagnosis.
Many women eligible for breast reconstruction following cancer surgery are not aware of their options, however. Studies have revealed that:
At Martha Jefferson Aesthetic and Reconstructive Surgery and the Martha Jefferson Cancer Care Center, we believe women should be able to make fully informed decisions, and that is why we support BRA Day USA.
Contact us if you have questions about breast reconstruction or ask your physician for more information.

J. Scott Davis Interview
J. Scott Davis has been active in fitness since he was a child and has earned athletic letters in high school and college. Davis also has coaching experience. He holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Liberal Arts from Excelsior College in Albany, N.Y. Davis is a native Californian, veteran of the United States Navy and Persian Gulf War.
MP: How did you get started in bodybuilding?
JSD: I started lifting to increase muscle mass and to supplement my athletic participation- primarily for high school and college basketball.
MP: How do you stay motivated to train to your full potential each and every day?
JSD: I'm motivated to train from a variety of factors. I've exercised on a regular basis for so long that I'm addicted to it. I mentally and physically need to workout and that's a beneficial thing to be addicted to.
The essential benefits of lifting and exercise is one primary motivation.
Another tremendous motivator to be in excellent physical condition is that I never know when I may need it again. That could fall in athletics, public safety, and recreation or in a variety of occupations. As you can see, I want to be ready.
Oh, and of course, another motivator is appearance. It is important to me to make an impression with my physique.
MP: As a Veteran of the U.S. Navy and Persian Gulf War, describe the physical and mental challenges that go into being in the Navy?
JSD: Serving in the U.S. Navy requires one to be sound of mind and body. I was a Navy Surface Rescue Swimmer while holding the Gunner's Mate- Guns Petty Officer Rating. Possessing dedication and courage are prerequisites for the opportunity to perform military service. The service member must be prepared to face extremely dangerous circumstances. As is reflected on military recruiting material, an emphasis is placed on physical fitness requirements. As is depicted in the movies, one must be prepared intensive physical training.
A physically conditioned body more effectively withstands stress and pressure of which you can receive much of in the military.
MP: How did you train yourself for this?
JSD: I trained for my military service the same way an athlete trains for competition. On the job, I didn't stop when I met the minimum requirement. For me, I had to be #1 for physical fitness testing. You've heard the military slogan "be the best that you can be." Well, this slogan reflects me!
My training included interval swim training, distance swimming, jogging, calisthenics, bike riding, and lifting weights. I was often seen in the weight room at bases where I was on and participating in these above mentioned exercises.
MP: You earned various honors while in the military, mostly pertaining to your athletics and physicality. Describe these accomplishments?
JSD: I was proud to earn Navy "Iron-Man" status for each athletic fitness exam that I performed. In addition, I set the command record for the fastest 500 yard swim. In December of 1994, I was the "Swimmer of the Month" for the Navy base in San Diego, CA.
While completing my Bachelor of Science degree, I participated on the University of Nevada Army ROTC Ranger Challenge squad. At the regional Ranger Challenge competition against universities in the western U.S., I was the only member from my team to be acknowledged at the awards banquet (this was for scoring perfectly on the athletic testing).
MP: As a swimming expert, what advice do you have for people trying to improve their swimming ability?
JSD: You can do this by improving your stroke technique while also building up endurance. When you fatigue while swimming such as in a race, your stroke becomes sloppy and much less effective. Thus, you can see how your endurance comes into play here. Much of the power you utilize in swimming comes from your back muscles and lats. Weightlifting exercises to build more power in your back and lats could be pull-overs, pull-downs and pull-ups. For the legs, leg-extensors are beneficial for your thighs and kick. There is additional work that can be done with surgical tubing.
Some swimmers may have access to a swim-bench. An exercise on this equipment could include simulating going through your pull stroke while the particular weight you set it at causes the resistance.
MP: What's your daily training and dieting regimen like?
JSD: I currently perform 6 workouts per week. This includes weightlifting, push-ups, triceps push-ups, pull-ups, sit-ups, leg raises and cardio (jogging). My jogging routine is not your average jogging session. During the run, I go up a very steep hill and come back down it. I also do wind-sprints just after the hill climb.
Diet? I like to drink a good shot of skim milk after a workout. At meals, I eat a stable diet of meats and vegetables and try to stay away from junk food. I like to eat a generous helping of food in the morning. I also supplement my meals with a moderate amount of vitamins and minerals.
MP: Over the years, you have competed in several 10K runs. How do you train for these runs?
JSD: It appears I answered this in the previous question. Again, I jog which includes a steep hill climb and dissension, as well as, wind sprints.
One could also use interval training to increase their speed for middle distance run competition.
MP: Who has served as your biggest role model to date?
JSD: Al Fiedler! I was a lifeguard with the Ocean City Beach Patrol (OCBP) in Maryland for 6 years. This included the last 3 years there as a crew chief (an immediate supervisor on the beach). Fiedler was a lifeguard and Sergeant with the OCBP for some 15 years. When I was first promoted to crew chief, he was the supervisor for the crew chief's in the chain-of-command.
Fiedler also lifeguarded with the Hollywood Beach Patrol in Florida. Although, that's not all. He also spent 2 tours of duty in the Vietnam War with the United States Marine Corps. Fiedler experience some of the fiercest fighting in the war and injuries included a broken back. During the height of the war, He was also displayed on the cover of Life Magazine in a photo taken during live action.
Fiedler refused to return home from the war when his deployment was up because he didn't want to leave his brothers in the battlefield without him.
Al Fiedler feared nothing! He would go for a swim workout in the ocean! But instead of along the beach, Fiedler would swim straight out so far into the ocean we could not see him (not recommended). Other times, Fiedler would surprise us by coming in from far out in the ocean which would suddenly catch our eye. It was like, where did he come from?
MP: What has this person done for your life and career?
JSD: Al Fiedler mentored me on management of my OCBP crew, supervision and handling of the issues. He helped instill within me the concept of "if you talk the talk - then walk the walk" (as in "put up or shut-up"). Fiedler was a positive influence on me in respecting the value of life. His philosophy was that when those beach patrons return home from the beach, he wanted them to return the same way that they came down- unharmed!
MP: What's your favorite thing about fitness?
JSD: Well, I have 2 favorites. I welcome the strength it gives you and the appearance.
MP: Where do you see yourself in 10 years?
JSD: In 10 years, I will be in great physical condition for a man of any age. I will appear many years younger than I actually am.

I want Edith's skirt! (But with a different top.) When you are the stature of Edith Piaf - the "other" Edith - a simpler top would be required.
LOVE LOVE LOVE this post. J'adore les dessins d'Edith !
What fun you two must have! May I come play dress up? I'll bring my pearls, my boots and favorite heels, my divine black rabbit scarf purchased soldé in the Marais in the dead of winter (il faisait froid et je n'avais pas d'écharpe - excusez-moi, mais c'était le coup de foudre et la seule fourrure que j'aie !)
I wrote about 'quality' today. You may enjoy. Great minds, as they say... (damn, I know that expression in French.... les esprits qui se rencontrent... ??)
I also provided a seasonal recipe this morning, with - of course - a French Twist.
Must run off and bake now!

Thought the virtual ideas were better than the designer originals. I know we all love Edith, but I wonder if she will enjoy all the delicious goodies during the coming holidays. Or will she personify the marvelous woman who has it all together and gains a half an ounce in weight by New Year's Day.
Sorry Edith, didn't mean to be sarcastic. Tish - just wondering if eating tiny bites of this and that holds true for the modern French woman at this time of the year. - November 26, 2009 at 3:04 AM

If you like squabbles, wait until you see what she's done to me next week.
I'd fire her if she weren't one of my best friends. Her wages, I have to admit, are within reason: apricots, plums and tomates from the garden. Then, just to embarrass me, she gives me walnuts and daisies from hers. When the apple juice ferments into cider she'll give me some of that too.
So, as you can see I'm in an extremely difficult position. Plus she DOES know how to draw. It's a rock and a hard place. - November 26, 2009 at 2:51 PM

Merci Deja Pseu. You are formidable.
