British Airways runs up to six flights to Ibiza daily, providing competitive prices and award-winning service.
It's known as Europe's capital of hedonism, but there's more to the island of Ibiza than just clubbing. Ibiza also retains many reminders of its long history, some of which have earned the island a UNESCO heritage listing.
Certainly, the nightclubs of Ibiza Town and San Antonio have attracted revellers for decades, arriving to enjoy the world's best DJs, drink sunrise cocktails on the beach and sleep until late. Much of Ibiza, however, is still forested, quiet and rugged. Northern beaches like the secluded cove at Es Portixol still possess the calm that first attracted hippies to the island in the 1960s. At the height of the summer season Ibiza gets quite crowded, but even then there are quiet spots such as Atlantis, the former quarry and hidden beach near Cala d'Hort. Many old Ibiza hands come for the island's warm spring and autumn, where beaches and restaurants are calmer and you're more likely to be rubbing shoulders with the locals.
Video blogger (vlogger) Emily Hartridge took a trip to Ibiza for some sun, sand and relaxation. She also found time to sample the nightlife – see how she got on below.

The NCCD Center for Girls and Young Women conducts research and provides technical assistance and training to improve outcomes for girls and young women in the juvenile justice and child welfare systems.
The center, which began in 2008, builds on the leading research and evaluation work of NCCD over the last decade. Because of the growing population of girls in the juvenile justice system and extensive requests for research, evaluation, training, and technical assistance from states, jurisdictions, and local communities throughout the country, NCCD received funding support from the Jessie Ball duPont Fund to develop the center's infrastructure.
The center is recognized nationally for its ability to conduct and translate research into effective advocacy, assessment services, staff training, and technical assistance. Its work seeks to address the multiple issues that contribute to fast tracking of girls into the juvenile justice system. These issues include untreated victimization/mental health issues, symptomatic behavior of girls, staff behavior, and system issues. The center's current experience translates research to practice and extends to training curricula and tools to respond to the needs of stakeholders. Our work at the federal, state, and local levels, and with organizations serving girls, is designed to help practitioners and policymakers become successful change agents. The center publishes fact sheets and position papers on critical issues facing justice-involved girls in an effort to disseminate information to a wide audience and elevate awareness of these issues. The center is also committed to working with colleges and universities to mobilize students and equip the next generation of juvenile justice and child welfare workers with practical information, experience, and tools.
For more information about the center, please contact director Dr. Angela Irvine.

Autumn days have turned my thoughts to soup. Soup has history — the name is derived from "sop" or "sup," which consisted of a slice of bread on which broth was poured. It's even thought that the word " restaurant," meaning something restoring, was first used in 16th century France to describe a highly concentrated, inexpensive soup sold by street vendors and eventually in shops that took on the name.
Research has revealed that soup is a great way to improve vegetable intake and thus intake of nutrients such as vitamin C, folate and beta-carotene. Soup has also been shown to be beneficial for weight control because it enhances satiety and reduces total calorie intake when consumed before the main meal.
However, commercial soup consumption is on the decline due to increasing concern over the health risks of sodium — and awareness that soup is its major source.
But soup does not need to be salty nor fatty. Especially when you're making soup from scratch. And it needn't be labor intensive. Here are some tips:
Soup can be any combination of fruit, vegetables, meat, poultry, fish or seafood, cooked in a liquid. It can be thick or thin, pureed or chunky, hot or cold, garnished or plain. And soup works for just about any course — appetizer, main event or even dessert.
So the next time your mind turns to soup, make it super. And share your favorite recipe here.

How about cold blueberry soup for a summertime appetizer or dessert? No salt, low-fat! http://rivendellwis.blogspot.com/2006/02/in-memory-of-last-poached-pear-in.html
My favorite soup is egg drop soup because it has lots of protien. Which is important if you want to build muscle, or gain weight.
Watery soups can be thickened quickly with infant rice cereal or instant mashed potatoes.
My favorite is cream of tomato. well, I will try yours as well, it definitely sounds nutritious.
I save the turkey bones after Xmas, and added to the chicken bones I have saved after other meals, I have enough to make a very large pot or two of stock (after adding the vegetables etc.). After cooling and skimming the stock of fat I make many yogurt containers of vegetable/chicken veg/ soup to freeze for quick suppers, especially on cold winter nights, when I dont feel like cooking.
Can we use Sea Salt?
I hve to watch sodium so make my own chicken and beef stock for soups. After finishing a chicken or turkey, I boil up the bones with onions and carrots, etc. simmer two hours, then strain it. The stock settles and when it is cold i skim off the fat, then put the stock into large yoghurt containers (2 cups) and freeze it. So I always have the base for a nutritious soup on hand, and my little Cuisinart chopper pulverises vegetables to go into it for a quick soup.
I have found using the crockpot an easy way to make stock. You put in all your ingredients (I prefer to use fresh herbs instead of alot of salt) with water, turn it on and 6 hrs or so later you have a delicious stock. I do strain it, though. I also keep bags in the frig for leftover meats,bones, and one for vegies. It works, and tastes good.
My family has been doing a lot of juicing lately and we have discovered the pulp from the vegetable juicing is a great stock for both vegetable and lentil soups! We're gluten free and in to clean eating!
I love making soups, because they are so easy. I rarely follow a recipe - I just use what I have on hand. Last night I started with a package of miso soup and added tofu, carrots, broccoli, and bok choy. Voila! Instant supper. Lots of fiber and very filling without being heavy.

Shopping/Breakfasting on Sunday
The way I see it, the injunction not to work on Sundays if possible would logically include making other people work for you in unnecessary secular pursuits. Ok, so try to avoid shopping on Sundays. Inconvenient at times, but not impossible. Now being single, I usually go to Church with my parents on Sundays. They like to go out to eat after Church and so do I, but I don't think I really should (see above). I have expressed my thoughts on the subject and my mother says if they went home, she would have to cook and that is work for her. I would hope hers is a labor of love while the restaurant's employee's are working for cash. Also, I love my mother and don't want to place any extra work on her shoulders if I can help it. I have thought of avoiding the meal, but that is skipping out on valuable family time on Sunday and being a wet blanket to boot. I have considered offering to make breakfast myself, but I am sure my mother would just feel obligated to cook instead then. I would like to hear debate on this.

Board names new interim mental health director
During its Oct. 1 meeting, the Plumas Board of Supervisors appointed Peter Livingston, a 13-year employee of the mental health department, to serve as that department's interim director.
Livingston will succeed Michael Gunter, who was named interim director following the dismissal of Mental Health Director Kimball Pier on Sept. 18.
Human Resources Director Gayla Trumbo said that Gunter had been named interim director because he was next in the line of succession at the department, but it wasn't designed to be the long-term solution.
Livingston's appointment came after an hour-long closed session.
In making the announcement, County Counsel Craig Settlemire said the appointment could be for a number of weeks or up to a year, while the supervisors "take time to evaluate the department and see what's best."
"This is a situation where we need to hit the skids and serve the immediate needs of the clients we are already serving and those who are on the waiting list," Supervisor Jon Kennedy said during an interview Oct. 3. "Hiring another director right away won't solve that problem."
Kennedy said he is confident that the department's staff is well-qualified and that with some redistribution of the caseload, current clients could be accommodated. "But we need to staff up for those who are on the waiting list."
As for selecting Livingston, Kennedy said, "I'm very confident that Peter can handle it. He has experience and he really, really cares."
When asked to comment about his new role, Livingston, who has been working as a mental health therapist II, said that it would be premature to discuss his plans for the department, but that he was busy acclimating himself to the position of director.
A little advice
John Sebold, who served as Plumas County's mental health director for 12 years before retiring in June 2012, said during an interview prior to Livingston's appointment that he would advise the supervisors to find a retired mental health director to fill an interim appointment.
Sebold said he would have helped out if asked, but he wasn't looking for a job. He said there are other retired directors who could step in and help run the department.
"If you have personnel who are anxious, scared and worried, you have serious problems," Sebold said. "You have to ask, 'How can we get this settled down?'"
The department is experiencing a number of challenges: from the loss of its director and other staff, to an accusation of patient dumping, and community concern about the department's service in the wake of a recent teen suicide.
"We don't want to have another A&D," Sebold said, referring to the county's

Aprilaire Humidifier Filters
How to shop for Aprilaire Filters
Home air quality is a major key to a healthy and happy life. You can find a lot of solutions on the market that allow homeowners to clean the air inside their homes, but only few of them are able to fulfill the mission of cleaning household air to the fullest—Aprilaire. In fact, Aprilaire is one of the most reputable American companies that has been offering a means to achieve cleaner indoor air, and since 1938. Aprilaire was the pioneer who paved the way for many other companies that offer filters and air humidifiers today. Even with that being true, however, Aprilaire filters don't just make the air "seem" cleaner—they offer whole house solutions that eliminate germs, bacteria and dust from the indoor air. It is worth noting that indoor air can be even more polluted than the air outside due to the lack of proper ventilation, especially during the winter.
If you care about health of your family, there is no better way than to install the best air purifiers.
Aprilaire Whole-House Air Cleaners
Aprilaire offers several types of whole-house air filters with different features to satisfy specific needs of each family. In order to find out which model suits the best your needs and house features, consult your heating and cooling contractor.
All Aprilaire Filters are the best solution for the clean air in the whole house. It is effective against viruses, bacteria and spores, pollen, and mold. The cleaner is installed as part of your central heating and cooling system, so it is not visible as another piece of furniture that can conflict with the interior. Due to its installation features, the filter also keeps your heating and cooling system clean. Another advantage is that the system is absolutely silent. The cleaning systems do not require special maintenance: the time between servicing is about one year.
The main difference between models is the furnace type that they are suitable for. All of the systems are easy to use. Along with the cleaning system, there is an installed control panel which allows users to regulate their Aprilaire filter with the touch of a simple button. Each model allows users to choose from several cleaning programs, depending on your current needs. For example, during allergy season—or if you have pets—you can opt for the Constant Cleaning program which operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The automatic mode is perfect for preventive purposes—during this regiment the filter runs every hour for 30 minutes to eliminate mold spores, bacteria, allergens and even viruses.
Event Clean is perfect for parties, when you are welcoming many guests, including smokers; the program involves enhanced air cleaning during 3 hours. Allergies mode is perfect for the elimination of excessive amounts of pollen in allergy seasons; the mode involves thorough air cleaning during 24 hours then it turns off.

How to Select
How to select Humidifier Filters
The quality of a replacement filter for your humidifier or other cleaning device is the key factor that helps create a healthy environment in a room where such device is installed. We have prepared the following guide to help you find and select the best humidifier filters that exist today. All you will have to do is spend several minutes of your time and follow the simple instructions.
A humidifier filter lasts for 2 or 3 months, depending on whether smoke and dust is present in the air. This means that you'll have to change the filters at least four times a year. Compatibility with the humidifier is the essential factor to consider when selecting a filter. However, this doesn't mean that you have to look for the exact same filter you always used. To know if the filter will be compatible with the device, compare its specifications with the ones of the old filter. If they match, you are good to go.
Maintenance of the filter is also something to pay attention to. Not many of humidifier owners know that the filters of such device can be cleaned in order to prolong the life of the device and increase its performance. To perform such maintenance work, you need to have direct access to the filter so ensure it offers such option before you buy it.
The material from which the filter is made plays a great part in its durability. Since humidifier filters are placed near the water panel element, they are designed to absorb harmful chemicals and particles from the water source. This means that the material they are made from should not have any toxic elements because they will be distributed into the air.
When the filter is selected, some of the questions may still remain. The most frequently asked one is how to replace the old filter in a humidifier?
Despite the fact that all of the humidifiers have different design, the process of replacing a filter is pretty much the same for all of them. You need to remove the cover of the device, then get to the water tank and the filter that is installed in or near it and take the filter out. After that, you can insert a new filter, place the water tank back and close the cover. After replacing a filter, turn the device on and ensure that it operates correctly.
Why do I need to replace the filter anyway?
In order to provide your room with fresh and most importantly, healthy air, a humidifier has to be able to distribute the moisture from the water tank. A filter gets in the middle of this process and ensures no harmful particles are going into the room along with the moisture. If a filter is old and dirty, it will contaminate the water from the tank and lower the air quality of the room.

There is a sale for CiM and DLCs here: http://www.bundlestars.com/all-bundl...motion-bundle/
Phoronix: Cities In Motion Is Steaming Along On Linux
For those that missed it, Cities in Motion and Cities in Motion 2 were both released for Linux this week via Steam...
There is a sale for CiM and DLCs here: http://www.bundlestars.com/all-bundl...motion-bundle/
Is there a Godzilla mod? That was one of my favourite things in Psychonauts.
The game runs pretty well with the open drivers. I am using CiM 2 with a Radeon HD 7870 with radeonsi (11 January oibaf's packages recompiled with llvm 3.5) with almost everything maxed out and it plays quite smoothly (v-sync off).
There are a few bugs, however (check this link: http://steamcommunity.com/app/225420...003048750/#p10). Namely, using the camera with the mouse middle button breaks the game (although the cam can be moved with the keyboard arrows) and sometimes (randomly) the menus of the game show incorrectly (the menu shows the background colour and no buttons neither text is showed). These issues seem to be happening both with the free drivers and with the blobs.
Anyhow, I am really thankful to the devs and to Paradox. In fact Paradox is shaping a great Linux games catalogue!
Calvin & Hobbes than anything else. Your idea sounds like a theme park simulator for monsters.
tried the game with the Nvidia drivers on Kubuntu 13.10: as already been reported, with game in full screen rotating the camera with the mouse breaks. Looks like input control could use some love. This happened only with KDE though. Running from openbox works as expected, so I guess it is fighting with advanced WM only. Didn't tried with something else other then KDE and openbox.
I also tried with the Intel open source driver. Water is not rendered at all, you just see the bottom of the sea. Reported both bug on the Paradox ticketing system, let's see if they will do some work to provide a fix. And btw you need to try many time to start the game when using the Intel driver. no less then 4 out of 5 tries ends up with the game not starting at all.
I will try playing in windowed mode and see if it works better as reported already.

America's Sorrows and Celebrations
This month is momentous. Besides marking the beginning of the Civil War Sequicentennial, this January we take note of several other moments of import in our nation's history and culture.
January 20th is the 50th anniversary of the inauguration of John F. Kennedy. Interest in him and in the entire Kennedy clan never flags, since they are the closest thing to royalty America has and the many tragedies surrounding them heighten the drama of their lives. There are as many books about them as about Abraham Lincoln. Recent news has it that a History Channel miniseries about the Kennedys will not air in the U.S. for reasons unclear. This controversy will undoubtedly spur interest in JFK and the clan, so let us recommend a few of the many biographies worth reading. Start with An Unfinished Life: John F. Kennedy, 1917-1963 by presidential historian Robert Dallek. Read Thirteen Days and view the movie to understand how close we came to war with the Soviet Union during the Cuban Missile Crisis. For perspectives on his impact, read Ask Not: the inauguration of John F. Kennedy and the speech that changed America by Thurston Clarke and also Forty Ways to Look at JFK by Gretchen Craft Rubin. Then read and listen to him speak in Let Every Nation Know: John F. Kennedy in his own words, which includes a CD, edited by Robert Dallek. The Kennedy Presidential Library has digitized material from its collections and made it accessible at www.jfklibrary.org.
Under Kennedy's administration, the space program really took off when NASA sent the first American into space and the first American to orbit the earth. He announced plans to send man to the moon by the end of the decade, although he did not live to see this happen. This month we observe the 25th anniversary of the Challenger disaster which took the lives of seven astronauts, including a school teacher. Read about her in I Touch the Future--: the story of Christa McAuliffe by Robert T. Hohler.
This month, we also recognize the 25th anniversary of the federal observance of the Martin Luther King, Jr. Day. Historian Michael Eric Dyson assesses the legacy of this singular civil rights leader in April 4, 1968: Martin Luther King, Jr.'s death and how it changed America. Hellhound on His Trail: the stalking of Martin Luther King, Jr., and the international hunt for his assassin is a gripping history thriller by Hampton Sides. He follows James Earl Ray and King as they crisscross the country, one stalking the other, until the drifter catches up with his prey. Against the backdrop of the resulting nationwide riots and the pathos of King's funeral, Sides gives us a cross-cut narrative of the assassin's flight and the 65-day search that led investigators to Canada, Portugal, and England--a massive manhunt ironically led by Hoover's FBI. Drawing on previously unpublished material, this nonfiction thriller illuminates how "history is so often a matter of the petty bringing down the great".
From one tragedy to the next, we march resolutely along. Undoubtedly historians and policy analysts will publish books assessing the meaning and impact on our country of the most recent senseless tragedy in Arizona, perpetrated by yet another petty individual. These will help us understand where we have been and think about where we want to go and how we want to be defined as a nation.
From the somber to the celebratory, we note that January is also the 75th anniversary of the naming of the first inductees to the Baseball Hall of Fame. Those sports heroes were Ty Cobb, Walter Johnson, Christy Mathewson, Babe Ruth, and Honus Wagner. Ty Cobb tells his own story in My Life in Baseball: the true record published in 1961. Read about Babe Ruth in Sultans of Swat: the four great sluggers of the New York Yankees (the other three were Lou Gehrig, Joe DiMaggio, and Mickey Mantle). Honus Wagner is the subject of William Hageman's biography Honus: the life and times of a baseball hero.
Another cultural hero emerged 75 years ago with the first radio broadcast of "The Green Hornet" from WXYZ in Detroit. Britt Reid, a debonair newspaper publisher by day, fights crime by night as the masked Green Hornet, assisted by his faithful valet Kato driving their car Black Beauty. This popular radio serial spawned numerous television productions through the years, and has just been released as a movie starring Seth Rogen. Listen to a Green Hornet sound recording in the library's collection.

|Generalized Frobenius Algebras and Hopf Algebras
"Co-Frobenius" coalgebras were introduced as dualizations of Frobenius algebras. We previously showed that they admit left-right symmetric characterizations analogue to those of Frobenius algebras. We consider the more general quasi-co-Frobenius (QcF) coalgebras; the first main result in this paper is that these also admit symmetric characterizations: a coalgebra is QcF if it is weakly isomorphic to its (left, or right) rational dual $Rat(C^*)$, in the sense that certain coproduct or product powers of these objects are isomorphic. Fundamental results of Hopf algebras, such as the equivalent characterizations of Hopf algebras with nonzero integrals as left (or right) co-Frobenius, QcF, semiperfect or with nonzero rational dual, as well as the uniqueness of integrals and a short proof of the bijectivity of the antipode for such Hopf algebras all follow as a consequence of these results. This gives a purely representation theoretic approach to many of the basic fundamental results in the theory of Hopf algebras. Furthermore, we introduce a general concept of Frobenius algebra, which makes sense for infinite dimensional and for topological algebras, and specializes to the classical notion in the finite case. This will be a topological algebra $A$ that is isomorphic to its complete topological dual $A^\vee$. We show that $A$ is a (quasi)Frobenius algebra if and only if $A$ is the dual $C^*$ of a (quasi)co-Frobenius coalgebra $C$. We give many examples of co-Frobenius coalgebras and Hopf algebras connected to category theory, homological algebra and the newer q-homological algebra, topology or graph theory, showing the importance of the concept.

Customer feedbackView allHide all
Thanks for great assistance on the phone when I needed help with changing my year of birth in my booking information. The phone was answered by a lovely young man who spoke in the Savonian dialect. I hope this feedback reaches him, too. Katja M., Finland Hide
The cabin crew on our quick getaway was exceptional, both on the departing and returning flights. The purser's welcome and introduction, both of herself and her colleagues, were fantastic on both flights. She came out so that we could see her talk – I've never seen a thing quite like it during my travels. This same care and good customer service continued throughout both flights. A big thanks to all of them! Outi T., Finland Hide
The crew provided me with very professional help on a night flight when I fainted on my way to the lavatory. I owe my life to the two ladies in the Economy Class cabin crew that day. Unfortunately I don't know their names but I want to send my heartfelt thanks to them and Finnair for making the journey memorable for me. Mousumi G., India Hide
A big thanks to the staff at Helsinki airport! My elderly mother and I were late because she had forgotten her bag on the bus – and her passport and money were in the bag. We were shown to the information desk and from there to the passport branch of the police. When my mother got her temporary passport, the check-in was already closed. The friendly staff took us to the special luggage desk and called the gate. We were told our bags would not make it to our flight. We got on board and to our great surprise our luggage also made it to the same flight! Thank you for truly fantastic service! Päivi A., Sweden Hide
A warm thanks to you for upgrading me to Business Class without any specific reason. I was coming from Oulu and transferring to Bangkok. Suddenly a friendly-looking Finnair officer walked up to me and asked to see my ticket. After seeing it, she upgraded me to Business Class. It was a lovely experience with the welcome drinks, menus, services etc. I was even able to sleep for 4 to 5 hours on the "bed", and I wasn't too tired when continuing my travel to Pattaya Jomtien. Once again, I want to thank the Finnair staff both at the Helsinki Airport and on the plane! Next time I will count my money and really consider flying in Business Class. I hadn't even realised how much more comfortable it truly is. Riitta A., Finland Hide
I got incredibly lucky: I had bought the book "Airborne" as a birthday gift for my spouse. It so happened that Riitta K. was working on the same flight on which I came home, and she signed the book for me. Awesome! A big thanks to the whole crew! Olli H., Finland Hide
Our baggage was delayed because of AirFrance. The Finnair staff was very helpful on our arrival as well as on our departure when we claimed for missing clothes. Especially Pia P. and Minna K. – thanks! Roderick P. Hide
Thank you for the expertly combined Blues Experience and Spin FM music bundles! I just wish that Finnish radio stations played programmes of this calibre. Tatu P., Finland Hide
A warm thank you to Katja F. who did everything she could to help with my cancellation after receiving lousy service from our travel agency. I got hold of a person at the travel agency at 9.40 a.m. – when they were supposed to open at 9 a.m. I hope they've now managed to cancel our flight from Kastrup, which we had to cancel due to illness. With kind regards, Ingegerd O., Sweden Hide
During hurricane Sandy the terminals and runways at JFK were eerily deserted. Then I got to experience the wonderful feeling of national pride. All of the departures monitors were shining with red colour. Next to every flight there was a red, blinking 'cancelled'. Then one line was in green: HELSINKI – AY – ON TIME. After reading this, and later on when the Finnair aircraft rolled to its departure gate – the only plane in sight – the feeling was amazing. It felt truly great to be Finnish! Thank you Finnair!

"Atheism is rather in the lip than in the heart of man..... " - -Sir Francis Bacon
SoulPancake has become a haven for the atheists. Which is cool. But... This particular brand of SoulPancake Atheist seems to be a know-it-all naysayer evangelist for their belief system. Their sole purpose on the site seems to be to belittle and shame people who believe in a Creator. They're contrarians. They don't seem to have the slightest interest in "EXPLORING LIFE'S BIG QUESTIONS" as they have all the answers: There's no God and you're a fool if you believe in one.
Beyond your revulsion and disdain for agnostics and theists, what do you atheists FEEL? Beyond your reactionary distaste for religion and deism, what do you BELIEVE? What, besides arrogance, do you OFFER that's POSITIVE to the WORLD to make it a better place? Do you have any kind of PLAN?
(And please don't just use the phrase 'secular humanism' - what does that MEAN?)
How do you, with uplifting, positive, social change, hope to make the world the paradise it deserves to be? What do you actually DO to make it so?
(and if you rant against Christians and New Agers and Bahai's, you've lost the point of this challenge)

Sometimes, you scratch your brain for ideas when you're hungry and come up with more than just popcorn + spices. Sometimes, you really regret baking tofu for lunch the night before, because that *so* could have started a tofu scramble revolution for dinner. Sometimes, the thought of simply roasting your beets and having a side of this or that just seems silly. Most of the time, when it's two days before payday, yet you have the time on your hands to truly cook dinner, you can't help but hope creativity wins out over desperation and random produce.
This is one of those dinner stories. The Intrigue of the Pizza.
It begins with a mind stuck on tofu ricotta topped pizza. The chapter continues with the boiling of cauliflower, journeys into a patch of beets, and concludes with a food processor and fresh basil.
Cauliflower Basil Ricotta. Basically, I substituted semi-boiled cauliflower and a small handful of cashews for the primary component of the tofu ricotta recipe in Veganomicon. I added more basil, nutritional yeast and a bit of miso to overpower the 'flower.
The pizza had both creative toppings and very particular slicing. The dough was spread with a thin layer of the cauliflower basil ricotta, and topped with balsamic roasted beet cubes, sweet corn, pine nuts, spicy vegan Italian sausage and fresh tomato. As for my fridge, it now solely holds carrots and condiments.

The mountainous region of Nagorno-Karabakh is the subject of an unresolved dispute between Azerbaijan, within whose boundaries it largely lies, and its ethnic Armenian majority, backed by neighboring Armenia. Most of the region is a de facto independent (though internationally unrecognized) state, known as the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic. The region was the scene of intense conflict between 1988 and 1994. By the time a ceasefire was brokered, some 20,000 to 30,000 people had been killed, and hundreds of thousands had been displaced. Even after the ceasefire, tension and sometimes conflict continued and most refugees did not return home. For those living in border villages in Azerbaijan, the situation remains dangerous, as breaches of the ceasefire persist. Sniper fire, unexploded mines, and continuting attacks on villages have a severe impact on daily life.

BioLogos Basics Video #6: How Evolution Works - Part 1
The scientific theory of evolution does not claim that currently existing species have evolved from each other. Rather, the claim is that species today evolved from common ancestors.
The Resource Finder has powerful filtering features — check out the tutorial to learn more.
The scientific theory of evolution does not claim that currently existing species have evolved from each other. Rather, the claim is that species today evolved from common ancestors.
Is evolution driven mainly by random genetic variation, or are there other factors at play? Michael Burdett reviews the scientific debate.
St. Thomas Aquinas helps us understand how the image of God in man might have developed through evolution.
A common challenge to evolutionary theory is that while life does indeed change over time (what is known as microevolution), no one has ever seen one species evolve into another species (macroevolution).
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.
From a Judeo-Christian perspective, all of these curiosities dovetail into a profoundly meaningful explanation: Being made in God's image helps to explain our creative and investigative skills, particularly when we consider that God has specially engineered this universe to reveal himself to human beings.
Does Collins show that Evangelicals have turned the corner on the scandal Noll brought to light, or does the continued resistance of the majority of Evangelicals to Collins's work (about 75% reject human evolution) show that we as a collective group still do not take the life of the mind seriously?
We can understand why man, modern man in particular, would like to mop the floors and bleach the walls. We might not be able to tame reality, but we can tame our perception of reality. We intellectualize in order to feel in control.
"There was no better way, in Boyle's opinion, to 'give us so great a Wonder and Veneration' for God's wisdom, than 'by Knowing and Considering the Admirable Contrivance of the Particular Productions of that Immense Wisdom,' by which he mainly meant the exquisitely fashioned parts of animals both great and small."
The idea that the story we know is only the very beginning raises a new question in place of Feynman's objection that Christianity is provincial. Is it presumptuous to claim that in such a grand universe, possibly with intelligent life arising in many places, the redemption and transformation of the entire cosmos starts here, on our pale blue dot?
This entry was originally posted on February 17, 2010. In this video conversation, Jeff Schloss makes the observation that when we use the term "evolution", it is not always exactly clear what we are actually discussing unless we denote the intended usage.
The world is not full of items stamped "made by God"—the Creator is more subtle than that—but there are two locations where general hints of the divine presence might be expected to be seen most clearly. One is the vast cosmos itself, with its fifteen-billion-year history of evolving development following the big bang. The other is the "thinking reed" of humanity, so insignificant in physical scale but, as Pascal said, superior to all the stars because it alone knows them and itself.
The evidence suggests that God has chosen to work through a random process, one which involves the routine creation and destruction of millions of cells that never get used. This is the ordinary means by which God maintains our health. The miracles of healing recorded in the Bible are miraculous precisely because they don't occur by this normal, natural process.
Although committed to the principle of sola Scriptura, Calvin recognized that the Bible would have been written in terms its original recipients would have understood. Calvin inherited the medieval cosmology of his time, a way of viewing the world heavily influenced by Greek thought and one which was about to receive shocks from astronomers such as Copernicus and Galileo. But not just yet.
This series by Denis Alexander reflects on advancements in genomics as well as their theological implications. He focuses on the relatedness of hominin genomes, arguing that this does not interfere with the image of God in humans. The image of God depends more on the capacity for relationship and covenant, not on a list of particular physical qualities. He then discusses why the recent studies of genomics provide "no grounds for genetic determinism."
The tension generated by our understanding of God's character, as revealed in the Bible, and by the reality of the natural world around us has been the focus of much debate within the Christian church since the first century. This series examines critically several of the proposed solutions to this problem, viewing them from the perspective of a geologist, paleontologist, and orthodox evangelical Christian.
In this series, we reexamine the claim made by Intelligent Design proponent Michael Behe to have found a limit to "Darwinian" evolution in light of recent results from the laboratory of Richard Lenski.
Gregg Davidson and Ken Wolgemuth seek to remove the stumbling block of the Genesis flood in this four part series. Though many believe in an ancient world-wide flood, the evidence given does not hold up to geological scrutiny, but points rather to something regional instead. It is their hope that Christians will not walk away from faith in Christ simply because a global flood is not supported by science. Looking at natural phenomena like the Grand Canyon, salt beds, and fossil deposits, they reveal reasons for these deposits and structures while showing that their origin did not stem from a violent flood that covered the planet.

Customer Raves & Reviews
Very Happy!
Ordered both my save the dates and my invitations from MagnetStreet and am very happy with both. The size, paper type, design, and fonts are all exactly what I wanted. It was shipped and received a week after I placed the order - very prompt service! I would definitely recommend MagnetStreet to brides looking for affordable print options.
Wedding Favor Tags Are Perfect!
I purchased the wedding favor tags to attach to small baskets made by my mother for my daughter's wedding. They are perfect! Size, color, everything is exactly as I wanted. The customer service people were patient with me as I changed color and text at least twice. Great service - great product!
The programs turned out great! Quality paper, punctual delivery. My only complaints are that the text turned out smaller than it appears on the screen and the design website could be more user-friendly. We lost work that had taken a long time to complete because there's not an easy way to save work.
