Have a blast at Machine Guns Vegas
I've had some memorable times in Las Vegas over the years, as Sin City has always been about creating over-the-top experiences with all the gambling and wild nightlife. But on this last trip I tried something new and exhilarating that I'll remember for years!
I was invited to check out the all-new Machine Guns Vegas (MGV), a unique attraction that will soon be on most to-do lists for guys visiting Vegas. MGV combines a VIP ultra lounge setting with the ultimate firearms experience. The selection of guns you can shoot will blow your mind, so it's perfect for gun enthusiasts along with first-timers who want to feel the thrill of firing these powerful weapons.
I'm the latter. I'd never shot a gun before even though I'd always wanted to try it. Now I'd get my chance, but it wouldn't be with a simple handgun. I was going to shoot three badass, fully-automatic machine guns, and I couldn't wait to try it.
As soon as you arrive at MGV you enter into a spacious and comfortable lounge area where you can relax and get ready. The staff is very professional and you can pick all sorts of packages for your experience. Guests are matched with a shooting host who uses interactive multimedia displays on an iPad to showcase each of the shooting experiences offered. Long lines are not an issue here as you can relax in the lounge while you pick your experience and wait your turn. My experience would consist of three machine guns – the M4 5.56 (US), the MK-47 (Russian) and the HK MP5 9MM (German).
After talking to my instructor, we decided to go with the biggest gun first, the M4 5.56 carbine fully automatic machine gun. The M4 is a shorter and lighter variant of the M16A2 assault rifle, sharing 80% of the parts, but it's still a beast. It's used by the U.S. military and is slated to replace the M16 for many combat units in the army. The instructor explained the proper way to shoot the gun. The stance is critical, as you don't want this thing to knock you back when you fire. Balance and leverage is important as you keep your right foot back and prepare yourself to lean forward as you press the trigger. The instructor then sent out the target and I was ready to go.

Oktoberfest Golf & Tennis Tournament Fundraiser
On Saturday, October 19, 2013, take part in the 9th annual Oktoberfest Golf and Tennis Tournament which raises funds for the City of Sierra Madre's Youth Activity Center (YAC) run by the YMCA. The YAC is a place for teens to hang out and socialize; through the YMCA it offers a wide variety of activities and amenities for immediate members, such as an educational speaker series, homework tutors, visual art classes, gardening, leadership roles with the elementary YMCA program and volunteer opportunities.
You can participate in this great event by playing a round of golf, participating in the tennis tournament, or attending the lunch reception.
Date: Saturday, October 19, 2013
Golf Tournament:
Golf will be played as a foursome, best-ball format at the recently refurbished, nine-hole Eaton Canyon Golf Course, 1150 Sierra Madre Villa Avenue in Pasadena. The golf tournament begins at 8:00am, but tee times are staggered. However, participants are encouraged to arrive early to practice their swing at the driving range—all participants receive a free bucket of balls — and take an opportunity to test their skill at our putting contest.
During the tournament show off your skill or try your luck at one of the many contests: Closest to the Pin, Longest Drive, and new this year, three holes with Hole-in-One mega prize opportunities. Hole-in-One prizes up for grabs include a car, cash, or dream vacation!
Golfers can sign up as a team of four or as an individual. Teams will be notified of their tee time one week prior to the event. A light breakfast will be provided the morning of the tournament. Trophies are awarded to the first place team, who is also recognized on the perpetual Oktoberfest golf trophy.
Fees: (includes lunch, goodie bag, and commemorative glass) Team - $304, Individual - $84
Tennis Tournament:
The tennis tournament is played as round robin doubles with rotating co-ed partners. New this year, the tournament will be split into two ability divisions: beginning and intermediate. Another change is the relocation of the tournament to the Memorial Park and Sierra Vista Park tennis courts in Sierra Madre.
The tennis tournament will begin at 8:00am. Prior to the tournament, all participants will meet at the Memorial Park tennis court to check-in, enjoy a light breakfast, and then test their skills in the serving contest. Racquets Rackets is providing a variety of great prizes for contest winners.
Trophies are awards to the top two competitors in each division, and the winner of each division will be recognized on the perpetual Oktoberfest tennis trophy.
Fees: $62.00 (includes lunch, goodie bag, and commemorative glass)
Lunch Reception:
At 12:00pm, or following the tournaments, is a reception at the Hart Park House Senior Center located at 222 W. Sierra Madre Blvd. An Oktoberfest-style lunch consisting of bratwursts, chicken, a variety of salads, and pretzels will be provided by Matt Denny's Ale House Restaurant. Enjoy the beers on tap through the commemorative glass, which each participant receives in their goodie bag. Purchase raffle tickets to win one of many great prizes in the Opportunity Raffle. Watch the Tournaments Award Ceremony.
If you are unable to attend the Oktoberfest event, you can still help out! The Oktoberfest Committee is looking for donations of in-kind products or services that can be used in the Opportunity Raffle, or 100 items to be included in the participant goodie bag. You also have the opportunity to sponsor a Tee or Court Sign at $125 (includes one registration in the tennis or golf tournament), or go big and sponsor at a greater level. If you have an interest in helping support the Oktoberfest Golf and Tennis Tournament, please email Kyle Schnurr at email@example.com
For more information on the Oktoberfest Golf and Tennis Tournament, please contact the Community Services Department at 626-355-5278.

Where did we come from?
I started several debates in TED and results are evolution can't be proven. SHORT OF CREATION and EVOLUTION is there another option?
I believe this is a fundamental question to be answered.
Oct 9 2012: What parts of evolution can not be proven?
How do you define evolution?
Are you saying there is no evidence for evolution?
A few hundred years of science and testing and predictions verified, the discovery of DNA, the mapping of DNA, the fossil record, our obvious similarities with other species etc disagrees with your starting premise, unless you define evolution different science.
We don't have a reliable theory the origins of life. But that is not evolution. Evolution happened after life with self replicating molecules developed.
Creation, doesn't answer anything. It is saying we don't understand how it happened so a creator must have done it. No proof or evidence. Nothing testable. Simply an fallacy, an argument from ignorance, with some special pleading thrown in if you assume the creator didn't need to be created, another fallacy.
Saying the universe or life was created doesn't answer anything. It just raises more questions. You have no evidence of a creator, why one creator, could have been a committee of thousands.You know nothing about the creator, how it did the creation, it is just speculation.
Its the same as saying it was magic.
If you have proof there is no evidence for evolution or have found some flaw in the theory, you might be up for a nobel prize because this is the greatest breakthrough in biology since DNA was discovered or Darwin put forward the origin of species due to natural selection in the first place.
Can you sum up why evolution is false or has not been reasonably proven?
Unless you have some breakthrough I suggest you starting premise is false.
Science never claims to have the absolute truth. Maybe one day someone will turn the theory of evolution on its head, but I doubt you have.
Oct 9 2012: Thank you for trying to answer the question but the debate for evolution failed over two weeks with no evidence cited. The question is trying to get you to think. If evolution and creation are out what is the answer?
Oct 10 2012: Whatever you feel you need to impose in order to fit your world view, reinforce your beliefs, and receive pleasure from. Doesn't matter of course if this view has any connection to external truisms. Theres plenty of evidence for evolution heres some.
I highly doubt anyone on TED is going to sway you as you seem to be hellbent on saying evolution is false, yet you also say creationism is false so please I need to here your take on this subject
Oct 12 2012: I didn't say evolution is false. TED debate did.Oct 10 2012: Was it a ted debate?
I must have missed it.
Is a ted debate sufficient to overturn science?
There is plenty of evidence for evolution. It is a very well supported theory even if you choose to ignore it or reject it due to personal incredulity.
Good luck with your conversation.Oct 12 2012: Coming up soon. Two debates about whether gravitation is real. We will call it instead Newtonism. I will write some nonsense denying this reality. After being mostly ignored for two weeks, and as soon as someone who knows about gravitation comes and challenges my nonsense and tries to guide me to discover the problems with my nonsense, I will ignore the debates and open a question asking what moves our planet? Since I started several debates in TED and results are that gravitation can't be proven SHORT OF GODS and GRAVITATION is there another option? I believe this is a fundamental question to be answered.
Of course, if the knowledgeable person comes and asks, I will ignore such person. Others who just insist how come gravitation can't be proven, I will say that this is not the question here. Nobody gave me any evidence or proof that looked like common sense (see my standards?). Easy! Let's get rid of all science in exchange for nonsense while ignoring answers.
Oct 14 2012: let me know when he shows up.
Oct 14 2012: Who? The person knowing about gravitation? I did not start those debates yet. My time is limited. What about you do that? Seems like you know how to start a debate trying to dismiss well established scientific facts, post there some fallacious arguments, then ignore the comments if they were clear enough to show how your fallacious arguments were misleading.
Oct 25 2012: Entropy Driven,
I am being serious. And I know this is not about the original question. But why isn't dark energy/dark matter considered as an explanation of gravity? So I am saying that dark energy/dark matter and gravity are one and the same.Oct 25 2012: Hi Casey,
Dark Matter and dark energy might be pretty much related. I am no physicist though. But matter and energy and exchangeable. Maybe in large quantities, like those required for the phenomena that made physicists think of their existence, it does not matter which "form" it has, and they are thus one and the same. Anyway, dark matter was originally proposed to explain gravitational effects, dark energy to explain what drives the acceleration of the universe's expansion. Since I am no physicist, I do not know if there's further confirmation or if we are talking about something akin to phlogiston or ether. So, maybe it is better to ask some physicist about it.
John Barbuto
Oct 10 2012: It seems all life shares the characteristics of gathering energy and self-propagation. The question I asked myself when I was in high school is "Why do the atoms bother?" Atoms of non-organic things seem as permanent as atoms of organic things. But, the atoms in organic molecules seem imbued with this tendency to form organisms that gather energy and self-propagate. Why? Why not just be a rock? It would be easier.
- +4
It seems to me this is the pivotal issue. From somewhere came a force that imbues organic things with these tendencies. Since I was a child scientists have been trying to create life in a test tube and they have never succeeded. They can make seemingly-organic sludge, but not life. The pivotal force is not there.
So where did this force come from? I'm now long past high school and I've never seen an answer (and almost never seen the question). Whatever it is exists at the atomic level. Did it just happen, or was some sentience responsible? There are preferred beliefs but no answer. When we can identify the force (differentiating once and for all what is alive versus what isn't) then we can struggle with where the force might have come from.
What is interesting (if the foregoing isn't) is that at death the force seems to leave. All those atoms no longer seem to have the ability to self-organize and go about the business of gathering energy and self-propagating. Hmmm.
Oct 10 2012: Nice comment John !
Seems like you are really searching for the answers.
As science also tells us, that in between the atoms there is just an incredible amount of empty space .... or is it really so empty ? Perhaps it is filled with a "life force" or what some call the "etheric force"
These are not at all strange ideas but rather pieces to a greater puzzle that can begin to explain some of the questions you are posing. Although they are not considered "scientific" ...yet ... the sciences may soon be getting on to this. Our tools are still quite clumsy to penetrate these forces but it seems to be heading in that direction with MRI's and such. We can get a magnetic signal from the living substance. An electrical impulse. Heat residue. .... But just what is this "energy" that leaves the physical body at death that you speak of..? Could it be one aspect of the spiritual part of our higher being..? ... I just ask...Oct 10 2012: Never heard it put like that John. You have hit the nail on the head, there are forces at work that science, so far, has no idea about. Why is that so difficult to admit ?
:-)Oct 10 2012: If you see a box of blocks they are like atoms without life but if a child plays with them they take all kinds of shapes as on earth this was done by sun and wind, the tide, rain and lightning and all forces that worked on them.
Those forces added a short lived kind of energy that made organic connections possible of inorganic atoms. And so even today we need be powered from the sun via carbon hydrates to continue that special configuration we call life.
Oct 11 2012: The child is adding information to the blocks to make a wall. Where can we see sun, rain, etc producing anything from random atoms ?
:-)Oct 12 2012: I have pondered along similar but not quiet the same lines.
What is the difference between being alive and dead versus non living objects
Life is amazing.
If you live long enough though your body and associated organs and processes don't function so well.
The body is complex relying on respiration, circulation, digestion etc at the macro level. So many processes. When a human dies, some critical process or more than one stops and this leads to the shut down of tbe brain and all the processes controlled by the brain. System failure. HowEver some of the processes such as hair and nail growth continue for some time after brain death.
I don't personally see any evidence of some Life force or spirit. The systems work or thy don't more or less.
Watching someone suffer increasing dementia losing their memories, then recognition, their personality, eventually comatose, you see the results of the biological system break down. Finally they die and yet some assume their personality and memories just float off fully intact to be judged by some invisible entity, with no evidence at all.
That sort of thinking is amazing In itself.
Oct 12 2012: My dog is dying and going through difficulties like these. I have a strong attachment to her but after each seizier takes her she has a more and more distant look to her and it takes longer for her to recognize me.
You are right we have lots to learn about us. If we get this underastanding will we be able to live forever? Would we want to?
Oct 12 2012: So sorry about the dog. May you both make the most of the remaining time.Oct 16 2012: Dogs can be great companions.
I'd like to be age 28 physically for say 100 to 200 years. Don't think our minds are set up for 1,000s or millions of years.Oct 12 2012: Have to admit never consider this point of view and I am pleased you presented it. Thank you for your input.
Barry Palmer
Oct 10 2012: Using the concept of "proven" is just bad thinking. It certainly has no place in science.
- +3
Check out this essay.
Oct 10 2012: Barry,
I read the essay but wasn't too impressed. It seems to promote a form of relativism that in my mind is a hinder to the true understanding of the nature of thinking.
You might also consider this.
1 is the largest number. All other numbers are divisible. While 1 can only be divided by itself.
In mathematics as well as geometry things can in fact be proven. In as much as we consider our own thoughts as "real"...... then we have to come to the conclusion that mathematical and geometrical truths as real and are also proven correct or incorrect. If one chooses to deny this, then you at the same time deny the entire foundation of science.
If then real truth can be achieved through mathematics and geometry, then the "ideas" must also be fully real in themselves... or ? Is not mathematics existing only purely in the ideal realm ...?
As we now stand in the danger of wandering further and further away from James's initial question, "Where do we come from?" The fact that we are here presented with an "immaterial" truth that is quite real.
If we can consider this immaterial truth as being founded "in reality" then why should we not consider other immaterial truths to also be just as much founded in the same reality.
Oct 12 2012: 1/.5 = 2
a = 1
b = 1
a = b
a2 = b2
a2 - b2 = 0
(a-b)(a+b) = 0
(a-b)(a+b)/(a-b) = 0/(a-b)
1(a+b) = 0
(a+b) = 0
1 + 1 = 0
2 = 0
1 = 0
1 + 1 = 1
Oct 12 2012: You divided by zero in the fifth step.Oct 16 2012: You made a error going from (a-b)(a+b)/(a-b) = 0/(a-b)
to 1(a+b) = 0
Anyway (a-b)(a+b)/(a-b) = 0/(a-b)
= (0)(2)/(0) = 0/(0)
even if you multiply both sides by (a-b) you get
(a-b)(a-b)(a+b)/(a-b) = (a-b) 0/(a-b)
=> (0)(0)(2)/(0) = (0)0/0Oct 15 2012: 5th step is 0 divided by a number which is ok comes out to 1Oct 9 2012: If your conclusion is that evolution can't be proven they you were not paying attention. Evolution has been conclusively proven. I think it is not proper to start another thread while the other two are still open and, by all appearances, you have not given any proper thought to the answers provided.
Also, you can't conclude from such a low number of answers that evolution can't be proven. If you were interested you would know that there's many resources where you could figure this out. TED is not the place for learning everything there is to know about anything (in two weeks, right?). You were visited mostly by people with not enough expertise to first notice where your problems are, then guide you through figuring that out. Curiously, you left the other threads as soon as some expertise in the field and in the way you have been mislead started showing up. The first one you left as soon as I showed that one part of your conclusions were drawn from the misuse of data. The other as soon as I started asking specifics about your look at evolution. How conclusively can you say that evolution can't be proven if you did not even try? If all you've got is answers in a TED forum where most of the knowledgeable people might already be tired of endless discussions with creationists who just won't listen? Why do creationist start these discussions if they will not pay any attention? Why should we bother answering if you appear not to care?
(My time is limited, so if you answer, I might not be able to answer back but until a couple days later. But I do not know if I am still sufficiently interested after the two other interactions we had.)

Oct 9 2012: Entropy,

The typical mistake the evolutionists make is that because they can observe an evolutionary process in nature means that there is no God, no spirit, no soul, nothing .. nothing more than this one time lonesome existence out in the middle of the Milky Way ... meaningless and empty. Without reason or purpose.
Because we can cleverly observe patterns of form and color in nature that change through the course of time, how does this make one jump to the conclusion that there is no more than this physical reality that we can see and feel. ..?
Attention needs to be paid to things of spiritual nature. Mankind is not merely evolving as a physical being but also as a spiritual being. Just observe the changes that have evolved in your own spiritual being. Look into your own soul and compare the way you were as a child to the way you are now. What changes do you see. The spiritual reality is quite real and it's secrets lie within you. As an individual, you have evolved spiritually. Just as the human race has evolved spiritually. This is the real essence of humankinds evolution. Not the purely physical aspect of our being. If evolution is ever going to be taken seriously it must also encompass exactly this idea. Our own spiritual evolution.
Oct 9 2012: Daniel,
Your accusations against evolutionists simply thinking there is no God because they observe an evolutionary process in nature, then dismiss the God, are not valid.
The problem is neither theory...creation or evolution...is COMPATABLE with each other, depending on how each side DEFINES their own beliefs.
If there is a God and that God has a Master Plan (Determinism?), then nothing that we as Human Beings "do" makes a difference. We are all characters is a "God Novel" written by the God, with no ability to change who we are. If I am a "good person" or a seriel killer, it is not my choice...God decided it when he wrote the plan. If we have no free will, then even praying to a God to help us face our daily trials and tribulations won't help. The God has already determined what each of us will do, how we will act, and whether we will be moral or immoral. And part of the God's Master Plan would also include the evolutionary process that led to Human Beings. If it didn't, the God placed all the "evidence" for evolution...the things we discovered...there just to confuse us. It would be like saying the Earth is only 6,000 years old (and so are we), but God placed all those dinosaur bones out there just so He could amuse himself as he watched us get confused about them.
Evolution allows for "free will". Most religious teachings do not, in the sense that the teachings place demands on the Human Being to act in a strict way the God demands, or face punishment for it if we don't.
The incompatabilities between the two theories are what raises the questions and objections about them from the "other side".
But the most obvious problem is that if someone can say, "There had to be a Creator", then someone else can also say, "Well then, there had to be something that created the Creator, too. Who created the Creator?"
Oct 10 2012: Rick,
I don't know where you get this idea of a "master plan" from. I have surely never mentioned it.
I don't know where you get this idea of a "6000 year old earth". I haven't mentioned that either.
I find neither idea compatible with my perspective at all.
Although you might be reading them into my words somehow, I'll assure you that they are not at all included in my way of seeing things.
Should an "evolutionist" be open minded enough to include a creator god, then good for him! ... But I don't think you could collect enough of them to start a football team....Oct 15 2012: Rick very asstute line of thought. The problem with it is we do not think like God. A being who lives outside time and is infinite can not be understood by the finite. Try perspective and look at your reply again.Oct 9 2012: I didn't say anything about gods.Oct 15 2012: @ James
Try perspective and look again? OK.
If I am incapable, as a finite Human Being, of thinking like and understanding the god, then so are all of my fellow Human Beings, including an appointed leader of a church. So if he/she can't think like and understand the god, why should I believe anything the other Human Being tells me to believe about the god?
From a rational and logical perspective, you just shot down your own arguement. The "Human Being" church shouldn't be telling anybody what or what not to believe. They can't be any more right or wrong about it than I can.Oct 15 2012: Not my conclusion, consensus by the majority of those discussing.
Oct 24 2012: A conclusion based on not paying attention again. That was not the consensus. Even if it were, consensus does not matter. Science is not a democracy. Evidence wins. But you avoided having the conversation. Not very conducive to figuring anything out. I hope that will not be your approach to education. Otherwise poor students.Oct 9 2012: "The Nobel Prize winning scientist Linus Pauling aptly described science as the search for truth. Science does this by continuously comparing its theories objectively with evidence in the natural world. When theories no longer conform to the evidence, they are modified or rejected in favor of new theories that do conform. In other words, science constantly tries to prove its assumptions to be false and rejects implausible explanations. In this way, scientific knowledge and understanding grow over time. Religious explanations for the order of things are not science because they are based primarily on faith and do not subject themselves to be objectively falsified. Because of this fundamental difference in the approach to understanding our natural world, the U.S. Supreme Court in effect decided in 1987 that the Biblically based "creation science" is not a science and cannot be taught as such in public schools as an alternative or in addition to the mainstream evolutionary theory of the biological sciences."
Oct 12 2012: still no answer
John Smith
Oct 9 2012: No James, we provided plenty of evidence and corrected your claims and assumptions, but you had your mind made up and nailed shut before you came here. You say you are an engineer, how on Earth that's possible is something I will never understand, you do not even seem to comprehend Occam's razor. I'd be scared as sh*t if I ever was on one of those subs you serviced, because you probably try to fix leaking nuclear reactors through prayer...

Oct 12 2012: wow not even close to an answer
Fritzie -
Oct 9 2012: Obey raises a vital point, which I am sure has surfaced many times in discussions of science here. Evolution cannot be proven not because of a weakness in the theory or supporting evidence but because nothing in science can be proven in the sense of, say, theorems in mathematics. This means there always remains the possibility in science of finding some new piece of data that challenges existing understandings.
- +3
There will never be a competing hypothesis that can be proven.
What one can say is that the evidence for evolution, as I understand it, meets very stringent tests of validity that no competing theory can match at this time. It is not as if the lack of provability in science means that all proposed explanations in any area of science are equally valid or likely of accuracy. This is a popular misunderstanding of what it means not to be able to prove something.
Oct 9 2012: Answer the question.Oct 9 2012: Of course evolution can and has been proven. Only there is a distinction between the popular meaning of "proof" and the mathematical/scientific concepts of proof. We should not invest too much in such confusion because it mistakenly convinces people like James that they might be on to something, that they are justified in denying any evidence. We should rather try and teach the many lines of evidence that conclusively show that evolution is real. We can't dismiss evolution any more than we can dismiss gravitation.
Fritzie -
Oct 9 2012: I actually think it is more confusing to mix popular and scientific definitions.

In any case, here is one link to lines of evidence from the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History, a reliable source:
http://humanorigins.si.edu/evidence. Here is a second link, to a site at Berkeley: http://evolution.berkeley.edu/evolibrary/search/topicbrowse2.php?topic_id=46
Oct 12 2012: Nice links but does not answer the questionOct 11 2012: Is this really a loaded question?
Is the agenda here a religious one, Christian?
James wrote at another discussion: "There were 40 different authors of the bible, who wrote over hundreds of years. Each was inspired by God to write the words. This is proven by several ways."
Oct 12 2012: Its a straight question.
Oct 12 2012: Just to be clear, you do subscribe to the creation explanation? Right?
Oct 14 2012: Never made any claims was only asking for information on evolution in debates and chose a con statement to stir the pot. Thanks for helping.Oct 12 2012: It's a religious agenda. As soon as he had challenging questions and explanations in his two "debates" he ignored the whole thing and opened this one.
Oct 14 2012: not really just gave up after two weeks of non-answers
Oct 14 2012: Curious, because you managed to give comments to a few of those who were not challenging your misinformation. To do that you jumped over the comments that were then right at the top, which established clearly that your argumentations had problems. Then you opened this.

Oct 10 2012: Once upon a time a long time ago people lived in the clouds up in the air. They were called the sky people. There was this young couple who were very much in love and the woman was going to have a baby. She went out to her garden where she began to pull weeds and when she pulled a handful of weeds, a hole appeared in the ground. She was curious about this hole in the ground and leaned over to look down. She could see this form way down below her. It was dark.

As she leaned to look in she slipped and fell. She fell through the opening and continued to fall and fall. At this time the earth was only water and the sea animals were concerned for the beautiful sky woman. They all got together to figure out how to help her.
The turtle said I will catch her on my back and she can be safe and dry. So the sky woman landed on the turtle and was saved. But she missed her garden and asked the animals if they could help. So the animals thought and told her there was ground way under the sea. So the bear tried to swim down down to help the sky woman. But he came up empty handed.
The rabbit said I am fast I can get you some ground. And he swam down and down but also came up empty handed. The humble otter said, I know water and maybe I can help. So he swam down and down for a very long time. When he appeared both his paws had some mud. So the sky woman thanked him and created the land and the mountains and all the plants that are.
Eventually she gave birth to twins who were the beginning of man. But that is another story.....
Pick a story any story. One is just as provable as the next.
Oct 12 2012: well its an answer...an odd one but ok if this is what you believe.
Oct 17 2012: See that's your problem. You assign belief to it.
Guess what? No one was there in the beginning. Nobody knows. That's why they call it belief. They are all stories.
You have to take the stories and look at them. Think, if I believed this, this would be my value system. If I believed that, that would be my value system.
Then when someone approaches you and says I believe this or that, you will understand their values.
But I do not assign belief to any of it..
It's like 42. The answer to life the universe and everything (Douglas Adams). It's just as good an answer as anything else.
Because it's not about the answer,
It's about the question.

I remember being told the world was round. I was fascinated and I've never recovered. My sense of curiosity went on high alert. I wanted to know more facts. My poor mom, I did not make things easy for her.
Now, I look back at things and with that comes perspective. My sense of curiosity didn't allow me to believe everything I was told and that's where my stubborn side surfaced. I wanted to understand the real world. Not everyone is plagued with wanting to learn things. They are, or were more receptive to being told how things are and as adults often want to carry on the tradition. That appears to be going on here, but it's not for all of us. Certainly not for me.
Your claim that biological evolution is not fact is ludicrous. As you have indicated earlier, evolutionary biology is negated by "creative design" and "proven" so by the evidence of "irreducible complexity." Wasn't there a high court ruling on this? Doesn't that mean anything to you?
Trust me, I see plenty of mystery, but it is significantly different than the mystery you advocate.

Hot topic James!
We are spiritual beings.
We come from the eternal spiritual world. We are temporarily incarnated in these physical bodies for a short period of time ...walking around on this particular physical plane of existence among many other planes of existence. We were born here .... "out" ....of the spiritual world and we will die, ...back again... "into".... the spiritual world.
pat gilbert
Oct 9 2012: I would add that Jame implies there was a beginning, the spiritual universe does not have time, that is a physical universe thing. In the spiritual universe there is only now.
- +1
Oct 10 2012: Hi Pat,
The whole concept of time as we experience it, sort of as a little fragment of the eternal must also be "inclusive" within the eternal. ...or....?
Time, as much of an illusion as it is, as you say, has to exist within a physical world in order to measure it at all. Whether it be an atomic clock or the earths orbit around the Sun of about 365 days, or the cosmic clock of the Sun's orbit of 225 million years around the Milky Way Galaxy. ...Apropo the 26,000 year alignment coming up on Dec. 21 2012, where the Sun and Earth will form an straight line to the center of the galaxy, something that the ancient Mayan's mysteriously knew about... (explain that one!)
As human beings, ..."being born into time" we naturally struggle with the ideas of "Where it all began?" or "What the word eternity can possibly mean...?" But as spiritual beings, after we die, (as I have come to understand it of course) what we experience as a "flow of time" relationship to the outer world, we will experience this later, after death, as a "spatial experience" This is what many people tell of when trying to explain a NDE. They see their lives as in a tableau. Every experience they have ever had.... is, so to say, spread out before them, so they can observe each and every action and reaction that has ever occured to them in their lives as physical human beings. ..... Now I don't know if were drifting off topic here Pat, but it certainly is an interesting topic!
Oct 10 2012: To put it simply time is simply the consideration that things will persist, and of course time is the measurement of movement of stuff.
My take on this we are spirits we can move out of bodies at least when we die. Since we are spirits we are immortal and we have been doing this for a while...
But what is true? only what is true to your perspective. Anyone Else's opinion about you should not be considered it is irrelevant. You should be your own adviser to do otherwise is the epitome of unethical as you are the only one who can decide what is true for you.Oct 9 2012: I think the reason it seems that an individual's "spiritual being is evolving" is that person is growing up. Every animal has a brain that controls many functions of the body. The fact that we experience reality doesn't necessitate a soul or spiritual realm. It just means that we are organisms, and let's face it the main focus even for our brainy species is procreation, just like any other organism.
Oct 10 2012: Nicholas,
What an impoverished perspective. .... "just like any other organism"....?
Is this really the best you have to offer? ...I mean .....How inimical can you get...?
No majestical ideas here. No reason for love. No need for development. No reason to reason or think at all ... No sympathy for fellow human beings. No feeling for justice or injustice. We are just a collection of cells....
And if one cannot procreate, then life must be absolutely meaningless to go on with...
Sounds like a good recipe for suicide to me ....
Oct 10 2012: Majestical ideas are great and all, but I live in reality. What I see around me is people working every day building things, trading them, trying to make a life for themselves and their families. This question is not that complicated. Evolution is a theory the same way gravity is a theory. The amount of evidence for evolution is massive, and it just makes sense, you see it all around you. The evidence for a mystical spirit world or a god is anecdotal at best. For me, given the choice between the spirit world and the real world, I'll take the real one.
John Dunbar
Oct 10 2012: Daniel and Pat, this is all just subjective hocus pocus it doesn't mean anything. Let me try one on for size, we were all born inside the belly of a tiny and tumultuous ant, through a bizarre unknowable interaction we were shifted through a window into another universe where we will dwell until we die and go back into the belly of the ant only to repeat the process.

If there is a soul where is it? Does a rabbit have a soul, a lion, an earthworm? Please look at the science of the brain more and more it demonstrates that the brain is at the helm of experience, perception, sensory information, emotion, thought etc...
Oct 10 2012: A while back we were talking about out of body experiences. When you have experienced this you KNOW the facts on this subject and that no amount of psychobabble explains this other than you is a spirit. Spare me your Pavlovian yik yak it just ain't so...
Oct 10 2012: You may or may not be right. I think science produces some interesting results. Michael Persinger is a neuroscientist who created the god helmet. What it does is it stimulates the temporal lobes with a slight magnetic pulse, test subjects report having an out of body experience or disassociation.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/God_helmetOct 10 2012: Yes that is very interesting...
I was not wearing a "god helmet". The only person that can say if I was right or not is ME, me thinks that your opining about what someone else experienced is a professional inability, in other words you psychs cannot pull your head out of your ass long enough to actually LISTEN.
Now here is the thing I was looking for some friends of mine that I could not find, by use of this out of body experience I was able to locate them and walk directly to them about 3 miles away. Another poster told a story of friend who was missing in the Himalayas. They had been searching for him for days finally they talked to a Buddhist monk who told them exactly where to look and they found him at that location.
John Dunbar
Oct 10 2012: Pat, notice i never once claimed to know what you experienced, we cant swap consciousness, at least not yet. I simply offered a scientific explanation of disassociation or an out of body experience. There are all sorts of experiences like you report, notice I said you may or may not be correct, you will never ever see or hear me claim science has a complete understanding of the brain, not sure if its possible. I think its a bit of a scary and intriguing proposition, but either way thats another topic. I think your experience could probably be explained without a "spirit" and i will continue to look for an answer that is less convoluted. Maybe language is the problem here I wouldn't say i have had an out of body experience, but I have had a similar experience that Is almost impossible for me to convey.Oct 10 2012: No they can't. I know this contrary to everything psych but ...
- +1
I think these experiences not only demonstrate that there is a spiritual element to this aggregate aka human beings, but that we are spirits.Oct 10 2012: Brian,
You can't think of it spatially. Drop that illusion. That's a common illusion so don't feel bad.
The rabbit, the lion, the earthworm all do have a soul. Their soul however is not individualized as is yours and mine. They have a group soul. A shared soul being. The "soul being" of the lion is one soul being sharing all lion beings. Our soul being is ours and ours alone.

President's Speeches and Remarks
Tuesday, August 21, 2007
Saturday, August 25, 2007
Good afternoon and welcome. I'm Barry Mills, president of the College. I'm pleased to welcome you to Bowdoin College and the Bowdoin community. The Bowdoin Community—you'll hear those words a good deal over the next four years, as your children make their way through their time here at Bowdoin. That's what we are—a community of students, faculty, staff, alumni, and you as parents and family as well.
I've been a part of this community since I entered Bowdoin as a first-year student in 1968. Back then, Bowdoin had fewer than 1000 students—all of them men, most of them from New England and the Middle Atlantic states. It was an exciting place to be and a challenging time for the College. My Class of '72 was the "nifty" Class⎯a group of unique individuals admitted in order to create a well-rounded class. We were caught up in the passions of the time—student demonstrations, strikes even, the draft, the Viet Nam War and concerns for the future of our democracy.
Today, Bowdoin continues to be a dynamic place, with a history that dates back to 1794. This campus has seen much of the history of the United States. As many of the Class of 2012 begin their time at Bowdoin, they will lead Bowdoin into this new time in our history⎯and they are remarkably able and prepared to do so.
In many ways the College has not changed all that much from its beginnings in 1794. We remain committed to our core values⎯a liberal arts education, serious academic and intellectual pursuit, sound mind and body and the never ending desire to work for the "common good." The college remains engaged with the future of our country, the world and our environment, educating a new generation of principled leaders, encouraging participation in community service here and abroad, working to appreciate and preserve our environment. We are among the oldest colleges in America and our commitment throughout our history to our core values contributes to the fundamental strength of this College.
And, there is the flourishing Bowdoin community. We are honored that you have entrusted Bowdoin with your sons and your daughters. They will find here a caring and intellectually thriving environment from which they will move into adulthood. Bowdoin is a place that helps young men and women leave their comfort zones and discover new talents. It is a place where they are encouraged to seek challenges, and where they will know friends among the alumni, faculty, and staff.
This College has an impressive history. Quality, integrity and a commitment to principled leadership are in the bones of this place. Among the graduates who walked here were Henry Wadsworth Longfellow and Nathaniel Hawthorne—remarkably from the same Class of 1825; U. S. President Franklin Pierce; publisher, and Bowdoin's first African-American graduate, John Brown Russwurm; and Civil War heroes Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain, a president of Bowdoin, and Otis Howard, the founder of Howard University in Washington D.C.; Senators George Mitchell and Bill Cohen; Joan Benoit Samuelson. And from today's news- Ambassador Chris Hill of the Class of 1974, who is leading the negotiations for the United States with North Korea. But however grand Bowdoin's history, its future is just as bright. Your children will be a part of that future, and you should be very proud. Proud of them, and proud of the work you've done raising them. I hope you'll also be proud to be a part of Bowdoin.
What is Bowdoin? In many ways, in the most important way, it is embodied in our dedicated, brilliant faculty. They are first and foremost dedicated teachers, scholars of uncommon excellence. They are also talented, accomplished scholars that create for us an intellectual community that is vibrant, rigorous and challenging. They devote a huge amount of time to working with students on independent projects or just offering their friendship and advice. A brief observation⎯every generation of Bowdoin students leaves Bowdoin with the experience of knowing one or two faculty members who profoundly influenced their lives. No Bowdoin generation believes that the succeeding generations could have such important relationships. And yet every generation replicates those relationships. Our academic mission is the core of what Bowdoin is about⎯and our faculty constitutes that core.
Our College is a residential liberal arts college. What that means is that we believe that it is important and of value for our students to spend the better part of four years on this campus learning in the classroom but also from their peers in this residential setting. We are committed to the importance of the life of the College since at Bowdoin there are important opportunities to learn and grow in this residential community⎯an opportunity for learning that is different from a big university or certainly very different from distance learning in front of a computer. Bowdoin believes that there is more to being educated than merely gathering and accumulating facts and information. It is the shared enterprise of learning⎯from faculty, staff, coaches, administrators and fellow students in an intense four-year residential experience that sets this College apart in important ways from other forms of collegiate education.
Our mission is "to engage students of uncommon promise in an intense full-time education of their minds, exploration of their creative faculties, and development of their leadership abilities" within a liberal arts setting. I imagine that many of you may have been somewhat apprehensive when your son or daughter began seriously considering a liberal arts college. Why come to a liberal arts college? What does a degree in English, or perhaps art, lead to? Is the science curriculum strong enough at a liberal arts college to prepare a student for serious work in graduate school? Let me tell you, a liberal arts education, especially one from Bowdoin College will serve your children in countless ways. I will leave much of the discussion of our academic program to Cristle Judd, our dean for academic affairs⎯but let me speak a bit about something I know a good deal about⎯careers.
You hear a lot today about education that, in a very focused way, prepares for a career. Students are majoring in information systems, engineering, business, even⎯dare I say⎯the law— they have learned early the notion of specialization. There's nothing wrong with having a plan for the future, and at Bowdoin your children will have the opportunity to accomplish their goals, whatever they may be. Bowdoin graduates go on to become leaders in medicine, in science, in business, in public service, in law, in education, and in any other career you could name. If your daughter wants to be a corporate executive, Bowdoin will give her the tools she needs to get there. If your son wants to be a high school teacher, Bowdoin will start him on his way. But an education at Bowdoin—at a residential, liberal arts college—will teach them more than an expertise in their chosen discipline. Bowdoin teaches students to think independently, to challenge assumptions, to write with clarity, and to listen to and understand different points of view. It will give them the foundation they need to remain lifelong learners and to be ethical leaders.
A Bowdoin education has an additional characteristic: an emphasis on serving the "Common Good," which is another phrase you'll hear a lot in the coming years. The College's first president, Joseph McKeen, established the ideal of serving the Common Good as a guiding principle for Bowdoin. "Literary institutions," he said, "are founded and endowed for the Common Good and not for the private advantage of those who resort to them for education." The College, chartered at the dawn of the American Republic, was meant for the "benefit of society."
Bowdoin has encouraged that ideal, and it is embodied in the lives and work of people like George Mitchell, Class of 1954, who has worked for peace in Northern Ireland and in the Middle East; like Andy Reicher, Class of 1972, Geoff Canada, Class of 1974, and Ellen Baxter, Class of 1975, who were at Bowdoin with me, and who have dedicated their lives to making a better future for the people of New York City.
With the idea of serving the Common Good in mind, I hope you will encourage your children to be active participants in our larger community. Nearly three-quarters of Bowdoin students are involved in community service, translating last year alone to 25,000 volunteer hours.
And so, in today's world so focused on rankings and assessment, on whether there is value to a Bowdoin education, we know from over 200 years of experience that our commitment to the liberal arts and the common good results in our new students graduating four years from now as life-long learners who will follow their predecessors as leaders in all walks of life.
Becoming a part of the Bowdoin community means becoming a part of Brunswick and of Maine. The College would not be the same if it were in any other place. Maine is a beautiful and peaceful place, one that will feed their spirits. But it is also a living laboratory for Bowdoin students and one that will feed their minds.
We at Bowdoin welcome you as parents and family members to our community. We want you to be an important part of Bowdoin for the next four years and beyond. Many college presidents and deans lament the involvement of parents in the lives of our college students. I am sure you have seen the many articles on "helicopter parents." The advice many presidents give parents today is to withdraw—allow your students to live their lives. In fact, we know, I know, that given the world today and our relationships with our children—this won't and shouldn't happen. In our world we should celebrate this new involvement and bond between our children and their parents and it is ironic that colleges and universities criticize these family bonds. But, you do have to give them "space." Read the parents letters, log onto the Web site for college news, subscribe to the student newspaper, come and cheer the Bowdoin Polar Bears on the playing fields, come to the art shows, theatre productions and our dance performances. Question your sons and daughters about what they're learning. Test their ability and growth in analyzing problems and communicating. But please remember that this is their time to try new things⎯to take classes they may find difficult, to learn a new art form, to try a new sport or outdoor activity. We know from experience that some will not succeed in all that they do here, but nearly all will succeed in much that Bowdoin has to offer, and succeed in truly remarkable ways. So, most of all, encourage your sons and daughters to be passionate in their Bowdoin experience, to get lost in generous enthusiasms for learning.
Let me take a brief moment to speak to you not as a president of Bowdoin, but as a parent who like you, dropped off our oldest child at college for the first time three year's ago and are about to send off our second son in a few more days. In the past years, I could only imagine the anxiety that many of you must be feeling for your children and yourselves, today I am feeling it too. At least in my case, I certainly hope that our children will succeed academically; but frankly what I want is for them is to be happy, fit in, make friends and experience the best four years of their lives. Will and Henry won't be here at Bowdoin, but your sons and daughters are. I have been president of Bowdoin for six years and as I begin my seventh academic year I know many, many students here at our College and many, many families. From that experience, you can leave here knowing with confidence that Bowdoin is a place where we care about each and every one of our students and make every effort to allow and enable them to chart a course over these four years that will be rewarding to them as they experience it and forever.
Welcome to Bowdoin.
Now let me introduce you to the Dean for Academic Affairs⎯Cristle Collins Judd. Cristle presides over our faculty and curriculum. Cristle has been dean at Bowdoin for the past year – now making her a veteran. She is a professor in the music department. She comes to us from the University of Pennsylvania where she taught and did research for over 12 years. Cristle is a musicologist of world renown, the author of numerous articles and books. She is a brilliant scholar and a fabulous teacher – having been awarded the teaching award for undergraduates at Penn.

You're welcome.
Nah, the smart thing is to keep it right until the end. That way, people will tune in at the start, and will watch all the way through in case they do put it in the middle. But they'll be waiting until the end.
I hope you know I'm just joking with the whole "It's Sting" thing lol!
IMO it's Jericho. But it could be Taker, it could be Skp Sheffield with his new gimmick. Who knows.
The last 3 Raw's have been under 3.0, but I fully expect the 1/2/12 one to be 3.3-3.5 I'd say. Or at least the rating will be up there during whichever segment the mystery man is revealed.
Just found it on the internet lol!
And yeah, apparently someone tweeted the picture to JR, and he replied with "Hmm, Intriguing!"
It's a great pic, and we all know that on 1/2/12, it begins
Sting's coming for the streak!
Ohhhhh mama! What a sight!

Unfortunately, the complaint was posted as a question instead of a comment and the complainant did not sign his or her name so I could reply to them and let them know that the UFOS are not the only ones who play the course. The course is also used by the public. I am posting the message verbatim below. I want to assure the person that their concerns will be brought up at the next meeting of the membership. Unfortunately, that will have no effect on non-members who play the course.

The FUGE Student Leader Apprentice (SLA) program is a two-week experience for students who love camp and want to gain hands-on leadership experience in a camp environment. Students go behind the scenes at FUGE and learn valuable leadership skills within the camp ministry setting. SLA is designed for students who are about to enter or who have just completed their senior year in High School. During the first week of the program students will participate in a variety of experiences including a personality and leadership assessment, ministry sites, recreation, Bible study, development of leadership skills, prayer experiences, worship, etc…
During the second week, students will be apprenticed to a FUGE staffer and will gain hands-on camp experience. Students will serve in a variety of roles, assisting the overall camp program. The apprentice week will give students a first-hand look at camp ministry as well as prepare them for future leadership roles.
For the summer of 2015, FUGE will offer two locations for the SLA program: Belmont University in Nashville, TN and Glorieta in Glorieta, NM (just outside Santa Fe). While both locations will offer a similar week one experience that includes ministry sites, recreation, Bible study, worship and leadership training – each location will also offer several unique experiences.
SLA Dates at Belmont University (Nashville, TN):
Cost: $696 – (cost will include everything except for extra spending money and transportation to and from the program – all meals are included in the cost)
Dates: June 8-20, June 15-27, June 22-July 3, June 28-July 11, July 6-18, July 13-25
SLA Dates at Glorieta (Glorieta, NM):
Cost: $688 – (cost will include everything except for extra spending money and transportation to and from the program – all meals are included in the cost)
Dates: June 13-24, June 19-30, June 25-July 6, July 1-12, July 7-18
SLA taught me so much about myself, the church, and my walk with Christ. I learned how key intentionality is when it comes to my time. I learned how crucial flexibility is in my ministry. It helped me to see Christ's constant pursuit of me and that he expects the same pursuit in return. The lessons I learned at SLA have given me so many opportunities to serve and love those around me.
Walt, SLA 2012
SLA was the first place I truly understood what being a disciple of Christ meant. Over the two weeks I was shaped into a leader with a heart for growing the kingdom of God and learned what it truly means to die every day for Christ. SLA taught me to be a fully committed leader focused on God's will for my life and discipling others.
Jon, SLA 2012
I learned a lot within my first week as an SLA from how to lean on the people around me to the importance of intentionality in every relationship to what authentic community looks like. When I was paired with my staffer during week two of the program I was able to see what being a servant leader looked like in a very practical way. I was able to put what I learned in week one to action in week two. The way I live is forever different because of my time at SLA.
Payton, SLA 2013 & 2014

Body Candy 101: Fun in a Jar – A Message From Wendy Strgar, Loveologist, Good Clean Love
Body Candy is fun in a jar. Adding yummy flavors to oral pleasure wakes up the limbic brain where our fantasy life is waiting. Body candy loves the most sensitive areas of the body. Our intriguing flavor combinations create tingling hot and cold sensations that enliven the meaning of kissing. Body candy is to oral sex as condiments are to your favorite foods- fries without ketchup? Shrimp without cocktail sauce? Fettuccini without Alfredo?
If oral sex is more a chore than a pleasure for you to perform, consider how adding some new flavor to the act might be the missing ingredient. I have met my share of sexual purists over the years who say that the "au naturel" scent of their lover is all they need. Not me. Adding body candy doesn't only spice up the skin's aromas, it also adds a creamy glide.
Try this: start with a kiss. Apply your favorite body candy to the lips and have your lover lick your fingers. See how long you can linger on the scent of that kiss. Try it on nipples, behind the ears, the nape of the neck. Take your time and inhale your partner at each of these locations. When you can't wait any longer, try it down low. Combine our body candies freely with fantasy play. Whether you go all out with costumes and props or just allow yourself to tap into the fantasy going in your head while you make love, explore the new doorways that scent and skin will open. Don't worry about what it means or what is normal, just ride your fantasy like a dream and be amazed at how much pleasure lives inside of you. With time you might want to share fantasies or play them out, but truly just even looking at them is really playful.
Oral sex is one of the most mysterious pleasures we practice together. Thinking about it only serves to keep it at arm's reach. Circumventing our rationale and dominant brain with erotic flavors lets you smell your way into the mystery. Consider it the direct path to your arousal mechanism.
Reinvent oral pleasure with Good Clean Love Body Candy. You will be glad you did…
–Wendy Strgar, Loveologist

Jacqueline Taylor-Adams's curator insight, May 29, 9:07 PM
For profit or not for profit entities, have you developed your brand story? Your brand story is more than an elevator pitch, it is your compelling reason for being. While there is a core story and message, your brand story continues to unfold as you continue to do business.
Your goal should be to develop your core brand story and find compelling and innovative ways to share your story. Listen as business storytelling authority Karen Dietz is interviewed about storytelling for non-profits http://smarturl.it/StoryTellingBlitz?IQid=scoop.it.purtmktg
David Hain's curator insight, May 21, 1:15 PM
Interesting leadership take from Manfred Kets de Vries!
Ian Berry's curator insight, May 21, 9:19 PM
Indeed lessons for all in this. I like the 5 leadership dangers particularly the first one about self-knowledge. Everyone can be a leader. Key is being and being requires remarkable self-awareness. The reason most leadership development programs in business schools and organisations fail to produce remarkable leaders is because the focus is on doing more than being.
Art Jones's curator insight, July 7, 9:57 AM
Be sure your telling your brand story using words and images that resonate with your ideal prospects and customers.
Art Jones's curator insight, June 5, 9:50 PM
Historians generally agree that the first written words appeared around 3200 BCE. Prior to the written word all of our communications were shared via story, ritualistic dance, sculpture or painting. This article illustrates how our ancient past informs how we interrupt the present. #VisualStorytelling
Jeff Domansky's curator insight, May 29, 4:31 PM
if your target is B2B or professionals, don't miss the opportunity to use slide share for impact and ROI.
Art Jones's curator insight, May 26, 4:23 PM
Attorneys have always be very good at using story formula to reach their audience of judges and jurors on behalf of their high paying clients. Now defendants from all walks of life can showcase their authentic self for judges and jurors using the power of digital video in an attempt to influence judgements handed down.
Ron McIntyre's curator insight, May 23, 9:52 AM
Excellent insights for those, like me, that struggle with self promotion. Well worth the read.
Ivon Prefontaine's curator insight, May 23, 10:21 PM
It is always hard to find the balance between too modest and too full of one's self.

And one morning, when a campaign aide called their hotel room, she answered and asked in clear tones: "Your name Hollings, honey?"
As quickly as honey Boo Boo came, there she goes—even more quickly.
She has nicknames for all her students—she coos that they are her "ladybug" or "honey pie" or "sexy lady."
Old English hunig, from Proto-Germanic *hunagam- (cf. Old Norse hunang, Swedish honung, Old Saxon huneg, Old Frisian hunig, Middle Dutch honich, Dutch honig, Old High German honang, German Honig "honey"); perhaps from PIE *k(e)neko- "yellow, golden" (cf. Sanskrit kancanum, Welsh canecon "gold"). The more common Indo-European word is represented by Gothic miliþ (from PIE *melith "honey;" see Melissa). A term of endearment from at least mid-14c. Meaning "anything good of its kind" is 1888, American English.
mid-14c., from honey (n.). Related: Honeyed; honeying.
(1.) Heb. ya'ar, occurs only 1 Sam. 14:25, 27, 29; Cant. 5:1, where it denotes the honey of bees. Properly the word signifies a forest or copse, and refers to honey found in woods. (2.) Nopheth, honey that drops (Ps. 19:10; Prov. 5:3; Cant. 4:11). (3.) Debash denotes bee-honey (Judg. 14:8); but also frequently a vegetable honey distilled from trees (Gen. 43:11; Ezek. 27:17). In these passages it may probably mean "dibs," or syrup of grapes, i.e., the juice of ripe grapes boiled down to one-third of its bulk. (4.) Tsuph, the cells of the honey-comb full of honey (Prov. 16:24; Ps. 19:10). (5.) "Wild honey" (Matt. 3:4) may have been the vegetable honey distilled from trees, but rather was honey stored by bees in rocks or in trees (Deut. 32:13; Ps. 81:16; 1 Sam. 14:25-29). Canaan was a "land flowing with milk and honey" (Ex. 3:8). Milk and honey were among the chief dainties in the earlier ages, as they are now among the Bedawin; and butter and honey are also mentioned among articles of food (Isa. 7:15). The ancients used honey instead of sugar (Ps. 119:103; Prov. 24:13); but when taken in great quantities it caused nausea, a fact referred to in Prov. 25:16, 17 to inculcate moderation in pleasures. Honey and milk also are put for sweet discourse (Cant. 4:11).
