What is Cancer?
Cancer is a large group of diseases characterized by:
• Abnormal cell structure
• Uncontrolled growth
• Ability to spread
• Ability to invade normal tissue
• Cancer is a group of more than 100 different kinds of diseases.
Cancer occurs when abnormal cells in the body keep dividing and forming more cells without control.
Cancer is the second leading cause of death today. At the beginning of the 20th century, cancer was the eighth leading cause of death in this country. One in four deaths in the United States is caused by cancer. Due to changes in lifestyle behaviors, there has been an increase in certain cancers. However, with improvements in public/professional education, primary prevention, early detection and treatment, the incidence and mortality rates are declining.
Classification of Cancer
Tumors can be classified as benign or malignant. The word tumor comes from the Latin word tumure, meaning "to swell." Its meaning is often used synonymously with the term "neoplasm." Neoplasm refers to an abnormal growth of tissue whose cells usually have rapid growth.
Benign tumors are non-cancerous and considered harmless. However, a benign tumor can lead to death if it grows in a critical area of the body such as the brain. Benign tumors may turn into malignant tumors.
Malignant tumors have the property of invading surrounding tissue, destructive growth, and have the ability to spread to lymph nodes and other parts of the body (metastasize).Tumor Staging is performed to determine the extent of the disease. The TNM classification system is commonly used to stage many cancers. T=primary tumor size, N=nodal involvement, and M=presence or absence or metastases.
Causes of Cancers
The exact cause or causes of most cancers are unknown, except for lung cancer.
• Cigarette smoking is the major contributor of lung cancer. Therefore, lung cancer can usually be prevented. It has also been implicated in the risk of developing bladder cancer, the exact mechanism is not known, but statistics show that there is a correlation. Smokers run a higher risk of developing lung cancer than non-smokers. Smoking related illnesses cause about 385,000 premature deaths every year.
• Environmental factors may be involved in a significant percentage of cancers. Parasite-Schistosoma haematobium, in some parts of the world (Egypt) can cause bladder cancer. It invades the body then migrates to the bladder.
• Industrial environment with some occupations have been implicated in the etiology of some cancers. People who work with asbestos or in mines are at high risk of developing lung cancer. Asbestos workers may develop mesotheliomas of the pleural or peritoneal cavities. Exposure to certain solvents, (benzene) has been associated with an incidence of leukemia.
• Ultraviolet light and irradiation is responsible for high incidence of skin cancer as a result of exposure to excessive sunlight. An increased incidence of leukemia has been reported after exposure to radiation.
• Diet influences cancer development. It is suspected that colorectal cancer is due in part to the Western diet, which consists mostly of processed foods with less consumption of roughage, bulk, and non-digestible complex carbohydrates. A non-Western diet is high in fiber and has a low incidence of colorectal cancer but a high incidence of stomach cancer. A high fiber diet moves through the intestine faster and produces a large soft stool that is easy to excrete. A low fiber diet may produce the reverse effect.
• Late first full-term pregnancy over age 40; having a first menstrual period at an early age, late menopause; and a familial history of breast cancer may be a contributor towards breast cancer.
• Sexual activity at an early age and having multiple partners, or exposure to the human papilloma virus may cause cervical cancers.
• Age and race are significant risk factors. The elderly and African Americans are at a much higher risk for Prostate Cancer. White men between the ages of 20 and 40 are at the highest risk for Testicular Cancer.
Early Warning Signals of Cancer
The best opportunity for curing cancer is early detection followed by appropriate treatment. The American Cancer Society has compiled a list of seven early warning signals.
• Change in bowel or bladder habits may signal a sign of colorectal cancer. Constipation or diarrhea alone or alternating with each other. If accompanied by abdominal pain, it may indicate partial obstruction of the colon. The main symptom in cancer of the rectum is blood in the stool.
• A sore that bleeds easily or does not heal may be due to cancer. Oral cancer for example may be due to heavy smoking, drinking, or the use of chewing tobacco. Chewing tobacco can cause white, roughened patches to form in the mouth.
• Unusual bleeding or discharge from the rectum may be a sign of colorectal cancer or if it is from the vagina it may be a warning sign of uterine cancer. Vaginal bleeding is unusual when it occurs between regular menstrual periods or after menopause. Bladder or kidney cancer may be manifested by blood in the urine or by difficult or painful urination.
• A thickening or lump in the breast or elsewhere may be an indication of breast cancer or it may indicate nonmalignant cystic masses. Other signs of breast cancer include retraction of the nipple, nipple discharge or pain and tenderness. Testicular cancer can be felt as a lump. Enlarged lymph nodes, especially in the neck, may be an early sign of lymphoma.
• Indigestion or difficulty in swallowing (dysphagia) can be a symptom of esophageal or stomach cancer. Dysphagia may be due to physical obstruction, such as malignancy, or a motor disorder.
• An obvious change in a mole or wart or darkening of a previously normal area is often a sign of skin cancer. Most skin malignancies are easily curable; however, malignant melanoma can metastasize very quickly, so early detection is very important. This cancer is associated with a small, black lesion, which may be raised and may not always appear on sun-exposed areas.
• A nagging cough or hoarseness can be lung cancer. It is the leading cancer killer in men and women.
Warning Signs of Other Cancers
Ovarian cancer may be "silent," but it is usually associated with abdominal swelling and occasional pain that is often confused with stomach discomfort, distention, or gas. Vaginal bleeding is rare.
Oral cancer may stem from a sore that bleeds easily and does not heal. Pain may or may not be present when swallowing or chewing. Pre-cancerous lesions have a white, patchy appearance.
Prostate cancer symptoms are the same as for benign prostate hypertrophy (urinary frequency and hesitancy). More ominous symptoms include lowerback pain and blood in the urine.
Bladder cancer may be associated with increased urinary frequency. A common symptom is blood in the urine.
Skin cancer lesions may appear scaly and can ooze blood or blood-tinged serum. There may also be changes in sensation, tenderness or pain. Melanoma signs include a raised dark bump with pigment spreading beyond the edge.
Leukemia is often diagnosed on patients experiencing repeated infections, fatigue, paleness and weight loss. Frequent nosebleeds may also occur and symptoms tend to appear rapidly in children.
Screening for Cancer
The American Cancer Society Recommendations for the Early Detection of Cancer in Average-Risk, Asymptomatic people:
Diet, exercise, reducing exposure to environmental risks, and reducing or not smoking will greatly improve your health. Combined with early screening and detection, prompt treatment can be performed which will improve your chances for a better outcome.
Avoid obesity. Individuals who are 40% or more overweight increase their risk for certain types of cancers.
Reduce total fat consumption. A high fat diet may be a factor in the development of particular cancers. Eat more high-fiber foods such as whole grain cereals, fruits and vegetables. Studies suggest that a high-fiber diet may help to reduce the risk of colon cancer.
Include foods rich in vitamins A and C daily such as dark green, deep yellow vegetables and fruits: spinach, carrots, and apricots. Vitamin C can be found in oranges, grapefruits, strawberries, green and red bell peppers.
Include cruciferous vegetables in your diet regularly - e.g. cabbage, broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cauliflower.
Minimize consumption of smoked, salt-cured, and nitrite-cured foods such as cold cuts and canned meats.
Keep alcohol consumption moderate - it may play a role in the etiology of liver cancer.
Knowing the stage of the cancer is very important for planning treatment. The plan of care may be curative or palliative depending on the stage of the disease, its location in the body, which symptoms are present, and the general health and age of the patient. Treatment may include:
• Radiation therapy, which involves the use of high-energy rays to damage cancer cells and stop their growth.
• Chemotherapy, which involves the use of drugs to kill cancer cells. The drugs can be in the form of pills, administered intravenously (IV), or injected directly into a vein, muscle or fatty tissue. Chemotherapy is usually administered in cycles, a treatment period followed by a rest period.
• Surgery is another option if the lesion is small and has not spread to other healthy tissues.
• Biotherapy/Immunotherapy is another alternative that involves the use of the body's own immune system to fight the cancer cells. One or a combination of therapies may be implemented in the treatment plan depending upon the physician's recommendation.
Side Effects of Treatments
Many anticancer drugs are made to destroy or control the rapidly growing cancer cells. Unfortunately, the drugs can also affect rapidly growing healthy cells. The damage to normal cells can cause side effects such as hair loss, vomiting, nausea, mouth sores, taste changes, skin changes, fatigue, a lower white blood cell count and potential for bleeding.

'Definitive' Paul McCartney Biography Coming In 2015
Wednesday, April 17, 2013
Noted biographer Phillip Norman will write what is being billed as the "definitive biography" of Paul McCartney, which will be published in 2015, according to USA Today. The still-untitled book has McCartney's approval, and will be published by Reagan Arthur. Norman is no stranger to writing about the Beatles, having published the groundbreaking 1981 book Shout - The Beatles In Their Generation and 2009's John Lennon: The Life. Norman's other works include last year's Mick Jagger biography, 1994's The Stones, along with 1984's Elton John, and 1996's Rave On: The Biography Of Buddy Holly.
Paul McCartney initially refused to help Norman with his John Lennon biography after being slighted in his 1981 book, Shout! The Beatles In Their Generation. Norman recalls that after McCartney's office declined participating in the project, McCartney himself reached out to Norman: "When I set out to write the John Lennon book, I had a feeling that I would have to be much more considering of McCartney's relationship and do a sort of reappraisal of his importance creatively to John, which turned out to be true. The phone went one day, and the voice said, 'It's Paul,' and he said, 'You have written some things about me and I haven't liked them and I can't sit down and talk to you because that would be like it was rewarding you for what you wrote."
Norman said that although he never felt that he was unfair to McCartney in his writings, he accepted McCartney's reasons: "However, I did say 'There are only certain things that only you can say, pronounce upon -- 'Did John kick Stuart (Sutcliffe) in the head?' -- which may have led to Stuart's death from a brain hemorrhage. Or on a very minor level -- 'Have you any recollection of John coming into the boardroom at Apple and announcing that he was Jesus Christ, to the other Beatles' -- which has been in a couple of other books. So, he agreed to answer questions by email."

May 18, 19 - Orlando, Florida - Amway Center

Workshop Leader:
John Collins

Taking risk, and balancing it with returns, is one of the most fundamental things
all financial institutions – including credit unions – do. While all organizations understand that balancing risk versus return is vitally important, few evaluate risk as a whole across their organization. Understanding systemic risk and how it can be mitigated allows organizations to better manage this critical process.
The program will explore Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) through an interactive presentation and dialog. The morning session will cover the basics of what ERM is and why it is important to credit unions, the regulatory requirements surrounding ERM, and how some have implemented ERM in their organization. It will also cover policy, procedure and governance.
The afternoon session will review a model program and provide a template for attendees to develop ERM programs that can be tailored to their individual credit unions. Attendees will leave the session with the necessary tools to develop and implement an ERM program at their shop.
The program presented will address the following questions:
• What is ERM?
• Why is ERM important?
• Are there any regulatory requirements for ERM?
• What are people in the credit union industry doing for ERM?
• What would model ERM program look like?
• What would an ERM policy look like?

Allegheny Ludlum's (AL) technical vice president, Jack Shilling faces the task of determining how to allocate engineering resources among five areas of technology. AL's technology organization has great strategic importance and has therefore been untouched by the company's headcount and overhead reduction policies. Shilling must anticipate and prepare to meet or explore competitive threats and market opportunities as he prepares to make his allocation decisions. Shilling also considers the following questions: What engineering skills should he look for in new hires? Is the current planning system optimal? What criteria should he use in judging projects? (Includes details of three project proposals which students are asked to evaluate). Under what conditions should AL undertake a development as a joint venture rather than keeping it entirely in-house? Teaching objectives include: 1) Analyze resource allocations to support/sustain technological capabilities and 2) Examine technology strategy formulation process.

Foreigner Co-Founder Counting Down To Thursday's Reunion
Tuesday, June 11, 2013
Although their split was among the most bitter in rock, on Thursday night (June 13th), Foreigner co-founders Mick Jones and Lou Gramm will share a stage to perform at their induction into the Songwriters Hall Of Fame. The Hall's 44th Annual Induction and Awards Dinner and Gala will be once again be held at Manhattan's Marriott Marquis Hotel. The performance will mark the first time the pair has seen one another in three years and the first time they've made music together in a decade.
With Mick Jones recently undergoing extensive open heart surgery and Lou Gramm battling back against a non-malignant brain tumor, the two rockers -- who once fought like blood brothers -- have both mellowed at the thought of their songwriting team being immortalized. Mick Jones told us that he's looking forward to every aspect of reconnecting with Lou Gramm on Thursday: "Y'know, the main thing for me is that we both feel that same way, we're both happy for each other and its a wonderful achievement and it'll mean. . . it's one of the most meaningful things that'll happen in our lifetime for us."

Well, almost a year ago The original BassDownLow remix video was dropped, using the homestyle video.
as seen here: vimeo.com/11673526
and it was killing clubs on the dutch tip.
Luckily for us, Dev and the boys re-shot the video with
some ILL new verses. So I re-tooled the video with
that banging remix (much in the style of the 1st one)
and put it back in your crates.
be sure to go support Dev and the Cataracs, they are killing it on the regular!

A Constant Upward Trend
After the 2008 economic crisis, many people found their retirement accounts depleted by as much as 40%. During the interim period, many naysayers that don't understand markets blasted equities as an investment. Today those investment portfolios have largely regained their previous price levels. Note the careful use of the word price, not value.
During this period of time, the prices of precious metals, such as gold and silver, have seen a dramatic increase in prices. More importantly, their value has also enjoyed a significant increase. It is very important that the individual investor get comfortable with this distinction between prices and value; it is critical to obtaining your future goals by utilizing investment news.
The difference between price and value is not a mere word game. Since the end of WWII, we have lived in a time of increasing prices. The constant upward trend is the result of our economy's internal inflation. As inflation compounds and/or increases over the years, the value, or purchasing power, of certain investments increases while others decrease. This value is somewhat independent of their rise and fall in prices.
Price and Value of Precious Metals
In very round numbers, you can assume a price of gold in 2000 of $300 and ounce, and of silver of just over $8.00. Those prices today range from between $1,400-$1,500 for gold and from $25 to $28 an ounce for silver. Different analysts use different ways of projecting these increases, but a range of conservative estimates sees the respective prices at $3,000 and $200. Again, understanding the ups-and-downs of markets, there are fluctuations within those ranges.
Throughout history, the metals considered to be of investment value, or precious, have served as excellent stores of value. That statement means that an ounce of gold has intrinsically maintained its purchasing power over the past 3,000 years.
With this kind of increase in price and value, it raises the question of what is driving such an increase in price and value of these metals. In the final analysis, the spot price, or cost of an ounce at any given point in the trading day, is a function of supply and demand. There are major factors that currently influence that supply and demand equation.
Fears of Inflation
A part of the current economic environment is based on solid facts, another part on the fears that those facts create. Economists and businessmen understand that inflation is driven by, among other things, unbridled government and debt. In the past decade, world governments have printed $120 trillion to bring their global debt to over $200 trillion. Of more concern, this trend is not abating, but increasing.
There are volumes of research on this subject. The only real question most have is at what range inflation will run and for how long. This is a major trend pushing the price of metals considered investment quality to remarkable levels.
Use of the Commodity
It is easy to forget that gold and silver are both, in their natural form, first and foremost commodities. With their unique properties, there are a growing number of applications that consume much of the annual production of each, as well as other metals such as platinum.
Almost never used today as money, these metals remain legal currency in many countries. A number of countries mint in total millions of bullion coins annually that are purchased and stored away. This further increases the demand for the metals.
Will the Trend Continue?
While there will surely be fluctuations, even wide ones, the overwhelming consensus is that the prices of these commodities will continue to rise, as will their value. There is an exceptional potential with silver, as its price moves back into the historical gold/silver ratio price range.

Latest update : 2012-11-28
Anonymous outgunned in its cyber war against Israel
Hacker group Anonymous is outgunned in its cyber war against Israel. Protests take place against an open pit coal mining project in Phulbari in Bangladesh. And Google is campaigning for a free and open Internet.
Anonymous outgunned in its cyber war against Israel
Members of hacker group Anonymous had declared cyber war on Israel in protest of the military attacks on Gaza. Tel Aviv claimed to have recorded 44 million cyber-attack attempts in just four days: an operation of epic proportions but with a limited impact.
Most of the government websites that were attacked, either by being defaced with a pro-Palestinian message, or being knocked offline, were quickly restored to working order. The hacker group also posted personal data of thousands of Israelis online, but it did not belong to officials, most of the information was about ordinary members of the public.
So damage was minimal, both for the army and the Israeli government. Technology blog Gizmodo says the setback is largely due to the fact that over the past few months, the most effective and talented members of Anonymous have been arrested.
A blogger from the site Zdnet writes that Israel was able to resist these attacks primarily because Tel-Aviv was well prepared and had drafted in help from experts and specialist companies.
But according to Nicole Perlroth from the New York Times, the hackers from Anonymous are the least of Israel's cyber problems. On this blog the journalist writes that viruses and spyware, in all probability from Iran and Gaza, have recently infected carefully chosen company websites in Israel. Malware she thinks poses a much greater threat to infrastructure across the country.
Bangladesh: protests against open pit coal mining project
Residents from the town of Phulbari, 350 kilometers north-west of the Bangladesh capital Dhaka, have been protesting an open pit coal mining project in the region, and the opposition movement is showing no signs of waning, far from it. The project has been in the pipeline since 2006, and was momentarily suspended by the authorities for political reasons, but it has been back on the agenda since last year, to the great dismay of opponents', intent on convincing the government to change its mind.
As we can see in these amateur online documents, thousands of people took to the streets of Phulbari to voice their anger and disapproval of the project. A general strike was declared in the town, with many taking part.
The main concern for locals is the detrimental effect an open pit coal mine will have on the environment and also the fact locals will be forced to abandon their homes and relocate should the project come to pass. In this report published online, the United Nations says the fears are justified, and that 50 000 to 130 000 people will be driven out and 12 000 hectares of productive agricultural land will be destroyed to make way for the mine.
The site "Accountability Project" has drawn up a list of the different demonstrations staged against the project over the past few years, saying the creation of the mine will generate a great deal of pollution, warning of toxic contamination of water and soil. The organization even goes as far as to say that if the controversial mine project go ahead then access to safe drinking water for around 220 000 people is at stake, and could lead to an unprecedented humanitarian crisis in the region.
Now trending on social networks
Twitter users have joined the campaign for Palestine to become the 194th member country of the United Nations with an initial submission requesting status of non-member observer state. One of the driving forces behind the online initiative is French socialist MP Pouria Amirshashi. The application will be officially submitted to the UN General Assembly in New York on Thursday by the President of the Palestinian Authority, Mahmoud Abbas.
Google launches online campaign for free and open Internet
Google is currently campaigning for a free and open Internet. And in the run up to the World Conference on International Telecommunications to be held in Dubai from the 3rd to 14th of December, the American giant has posted a petition online urging governments from all over the world not to impose restrictions on web access. Google is asking web users to add their voice to the campaign so they can continue browsing the internet without being confronted by government imposed censorship.
Video of the day

A fisherman in New Zealand recently did the unthinkable -- fought off a shark, stitched up his own wounds, then headed to the local pub for a beer.
James Grant, a 24-year-old doctor, was spear fishing off the country's southern coast last weekend when he felt something grab his leg.
"I thought it might have been one of my diving buddies, turned around… big shark had latched on," he told the BBC.
Grant said he fought off the shark with his diving knife, then swam back to shore to stitch up the lacerations to his leg with his own first aid kit.
After that, he went to a nearby pub to grab a couple beers and share his fisherman's tale, according to New Zealand Radio.
"I'll be back out in the water some time," Grant said.
Listen to the audio of his interview here.

Tactile feedback
Tactile feedback refers to intentionally produced feedback that is perceived as movement. In most cases this movement is perceived with the touch sense on the skin. Another widely used term is Haptic technology, details from Wikipedia.
Where is it used
To assist other senses
There are several possibilities for providign tactile feedback. One interesting example is the use of a braillle output device, that traces text as embossed groups of dots that can be read using the tips of your fingers. There are some quite innovative applications, like Braille Pad of this in the market. They are, of course aimed at people with sight problems, but could be used by anyone.
In games
One very common way is to use vibration to give the user feedback in a game or other application to enhance the user experience. For example, when you shoot in a game, your game controller jerks or vibrates suddenly to give the impression of recoil. Or in a racing game the steering wheel or game controller vibrates when you go off road to simulate a bumpy ride.
Silent alarm
In mobile devices it usual, that you can set a silent mode, where the device does not emit a sound, but uses rythmic vibration to tell the user needs to take an action. Usually an alarm or an incoming message or phone call. In such cases the device also blinks to notify the user of an event on which they should take some action.
How does it work
The Braille pad example above uses retractable pins to create the Braille patterns.Most of the Nokia mobile devices have a small eccentric rotator that creates vibration when turning at high speeds.
There are several examples around the web on how to use the vibration functionality, please use a search engine to find them out.

virtual void VibraStatusChanged(CHWRMVibra::TVibraStatus aStatus);
CHWRMVibra* iVibrate;

CHWRMVibra::TVibraModeState vibrationState = iVibrate->VibraSettings();

Why is it used
Practical reasons
Tactile feedback is good for those times when auditive of visual feedback is unavailable or cannot be used for some other reason. The user might be visually impaired or have problems in hearing, either permanently like bad lighting or heavy background noise or permnanently like in cases of blindness or deafness. In theses cases tactile feedback is the best option for practical applications.
Enhanced user experience
Since most people live in a world of sound, light and touch, using tactile feedback in games and other applications gives a highly elevated experience and creates a wow effect for the user. Furthemore, in some cases, like the touch screen it is possible that tapping on a button does not immediately result in the UI, so it is a good idea to give the user some feedback trough vibration so they know the tap was registered.

I'm guessing Golden had something to do with this as well. While his exposure has been limited, I was so impressed with his nose for the ball, tackling, and playmaking ability.
Patrick Chung has been brought up over at the Steelers Scout page.
I totally agree if that is the assessment they have made. Both the Bumgals and Ravens are better than us right now.
Playing Fantasy Football does not qualify you to be the in the front office or on the coaching staff of the Pittsburgh Steelers. They are professionals and you are not!
Well, if they were third best team in the AFCN this past year, releasing Hampton with no real plan behind him and Ryan Clark with no real plan behind him probably isn't going to move them into 1st or 2nd. Now, Harrison, Foote and Kiesel will probably be released and there really isn't a plan behind any of them either. this should all be really fascinating, probably makes for another subpar year next year, but hopefully, that will be the extent of it.
Oh, I forgot, Starks and Colon look like casualties as well, the Steelers are good to go now, they'll be younger for sure.

I don't see the Steelers cutting Clark. He may be forced out by injury but he won't just be cut. No Way.
Clark already started his rehab and training, I can't rely on scuttlebutt.

SOAPSUDS HOLLOW: Super Bowl more about food than football
Super Bowl XLVIII was played on Sunday. It was a very big deal.The Aiken (SC) Standard reported the findings of a study done by finance-website WalletHub. The amounts of food expected to be consumed on Super Bowl Sunday are staggering.According to SC, each fan is expected to consume 1,200 calories. Dominos and Pizza Hut were expected to sell somewhere in the neighborhood of 29 million slices of pizza.But it seems that chicken wings top the list. The report estimated that 1.25 billion chicken wings were consumed on Super Bowl Sunday. Yes, 1.25 billion wings!Our local grocery store got in on the action with many sales for the Super Bowl. Chips, soda pop, salsa and dips, meat balls, veggie trays, and other items too numerous to mention were all featured on sale.
There are those who get creative when it comes to snacks for the Super Bowl. If your party includes kids, you won't be able to get by with just the hot wings and beer. My sister-in-law, Tami, knows this, so she made cookies for her Super Bowl party.Fun little football cookies – just right for the kiddos!

Discovering the Beauty of God's Evolving Creation: My Story
A college student raised as a young-earth creationist shares his story of coming to understand and appreciate God's evolving creation.

A college student raised as a young-earth creationist shares his story of coming to understand and appreciate God's evolving creation.
If we want people to accept that evangelical Christianity and evolution can co-exist, then it will only happen in the context of relationships.
Is Christianity anti-science? Can Christians be good scientists? Is science the only source of true knowledge? Pastor Dave Gustavsen of Jacksonville Chapel addresses these issues.
Evolution is a challenging subject to consider in light of biblical faith, so it is often easier to ignore or reject it than to engage in meaningful discussion about the topic. Yet considering evolutionary creation has important benefits for Christians both in our relationship with the Creator, and in our relationships with other people—both believers and non-believers.
A short guide to where BioLogos fits in the origins debate.
What happens when evolutionary creationists, old-earth creationists, and Southern Baptist theologians sit down publicly and talk about origins? At the 2014 meeting of the Evangelical Theological Society, these three groups decided to find out. This four-part series is adapted from the three-hour dialogue, entitled "A Conversation on Origins".
Today, we are unveiling our new comment/discussion system, with many new ways to interact with authors and fellow readers about science and faith.
We as Christians cannot claim that the world belongs to God and at the same time distrust the systematic study of it.
Because reliance upon experts cannot be eliminated, the central question for Christians today is not "should I believe scientific experts?" but "which scientific experts should I believe?"
I've always thought of the sense of smell as a more intimate sense than most other senses. For in smelling, the thing that we smell becomes almost a part of us.
The biggest science stories of the week are reviewed.
Our time at the annual meeting of the Evangelical Theological Society showed that there is a hunger to a better conversation about science and evangelical Christianity.
Pope Francis is reiterating a basic claim in Catholic Christianity: If one acknowledges that God creates by giving creatures not only their existence but also their natures, one can reconcile an evolutionary worldview with the Christian 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.
When a Christian explores divine action in nature, that person also moves into the realm of revealed purpose and meaning of existence—each of which emanate from within the triune God who is love.
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.
BioLogos president Deb Haarsma responds to Ken Ham's recent comments about Hugh Ross, and pleads for a more gracious conversation between Christians on issues of faith and science.
If discussions of science and religion sometimes get bogged down in Genesis, perhaps that is because they have not made the preparatory journey through the rich material of the Wisdom books.
"We should be slow to accuse another of discarding the authority of Scripture, and therefore denouncing them, just because they interpret Scripture differently than we do."
