A donor-based Web ministry—provided with love as a FREE service to all
a nonprofit ministry of
Dear visitor,
Although we live in technologically exciting times, in many ways Earth is an increasingly sad, confused place. In a world rich with information, most people today are ignorant of the most fundamental biblical knowledge--what life is all about--where we came from--and where we are going. Divorce, abuse, crime, abortion, loneliness and spiritual blindness are rampant. Billions live in daily rebellion against their Creator and are doomed for eternity unless they learn the truth and accept Jesus Christ.
The good news is that we have the biblical answers people need.
As Christians, our job is to love God and obey His laws, love others as Christ loved us, and confront our culture with God's truth. Our staff is dedicated to the Lord's service--each sacrificing in love with a humble servant's heart--eager to help others.
Here is how we are responding to the needs of our world. We need your help!
Christian Answers Network is our dynamic and extremely popular question-answering and apologetics ministry on the Internet. We are receiving over 1.8-million "hits" PER DAY. This large, unique Web site is translated into 33-languages and is regularly visited by people in at least 200 nations. Each month, we receive thousands of questions from searching souls:
[ more comments ]
Can you imagine the challenge of dealing with thousands of questions from people who are lost, confused, hurting, and desperate? We consider it a blessing that they have turned to us--instead of to the world! This daily outreach is bearing much fruit! We want to keep this ministry going! But we greatly need more funds to support it.
Our ministry does not end with the millions of people we help through the Internet…
FILM/VIDEO PRODUCTION, TRANSLATION & DISTRIBUTION-- Through the Lord's blessing, we have produced widely-acclaimed, award-winning motion pictures. Lives worldwide have been changed through translations into 28 languages. Our current, much-needed production is DESTINATION PARADISE: How to Understand the World's Suffering and God's Plan from Creation to Eternity. Your help is needed to continue this new production—waiting on hold for more funding.
Click Here to help FILM/VIDEO PRODUCTION, ETC.OUR PRISON MINISTRY-- Never have there been more people behind bars! Chaplains tell us, "We pastors and chaplains that minister to inmates need help! We need good Christian videos to show in prison. It seems to be one of the only ways that reaches their hearts." We are convinced that the current situation in America's prisons presents a unique opportunity—a fertile mission field. The spiritual needs are very great! These lost souls are born of the media generation. We have responded by assembling the finest evangelistic and discipleship videos in consultation with prison chaplains.
With your help, we can place these videos where they will be used for years to reach souls for Christ. This unique ministry is reaping wonderful fruit, and it is very cost effective! Some wardens even broadcast our videos into the cells. We have a waiting list of prisons requesting help. Each week we receive more requests. But we don't have the funds to fill the requests.
Please respond—this is a great opportunity for you to bring Christ to lonely, lost souls who may be open to God's truth for the first time in their lives!

PUBLIC SCHOOL OUTREACH— Our public education system continues to undermine young people's faith in Christ. They are taught to doubt the existence of their Creator--to accept a distorted view of Earth's true history--and to doubt the existence of Heaven, Hell and Christ's way of salvation. We are loaning all of our video productions free to public schools nationwide. Help us respond to the needs.
KID EXPLORERS— Carefully designed to reach young people, our Kid Explorers Internet ministry uses an attention-getting rain forest theme. It provides Biblical answers on a child's level and makes learning fun with activities, audio, video, stories, quizzes and more. We need your response to continue and expand this outreach to public school students and other kids—and to complete development of a great new Creation evidences Dinosaur Web site. Your donations are the fuel for progress and help!

CHRISTIAN SPOTLIGHT ON ENTERTAINMENT— Many thousands of Christians look to us each week for guidance in making wise entertainment choices for their families, dorms, and more. What an encouragement at a time when so many Christians patronize the same Hollywood movies as the rest of the world. With the Lord's help, our free Spotlight service has become the world's most successful Christian movie review site on the Internet. The reviews are even reprinted in newspapers, church bulletins and newsletters. This unique ministry can only continue through your help!

There are so many amazing and joyful opportunities to serve God with our time and money. Give according to your means with prayer, as the Lord moves you. For if the willingness is there, the gift is blessed. Help send the truth of God to millions in this spiritually-dark world. Your generosity will result in thanksgiving to God.
In Christ's love,

Let a Thousand Wikibooks Bloom - Chronicle.com
From the article: "The conventional premise of higher education is that information is scarce and must be assembled, evaluated, and presented to students by the instructor." The authors make a compelling point. Information is not scarce now, and one the important skills we must teach is the ability to create knowledge from all the information available to us.
I'm also thinking about our traditional ideas around scholarship. We place a premium on sharing our work so it can be evaluated by others. Research and scholarship not submitted to our peers has little value. I see connections to the textbooks the students are making; they are publishing their work in a format that allows others to correct it, comment on it, and respond to it. They are contributing to scholarship. It is exciting.

Uganda's over dependence on charcoal means the country is heading for an energy crisis unless the Government regulates its use, Cornelius Kazoora, an expert in environmental economics has predicted in a new study. What do charcoal burners, environmentalists, politicians think about this?
Moses Asiimwe, a resident of Bugolobi in Kampala does not like what he sees. Everytime he goes back to his village in Nakasongola he encounters more bare patches than, the lush green that used to cover the area.
Not only has it turned into a sanctuary for charcoal burners with devastating effects, but it is also a poverty haven. A few kilometres away from lives the Kampala-Gulu highway, David Samanya, a resident of Migyera, Nakasongola, a father of four, knows well the danger that comes with charcoal burning.
He cannot give up charcoal burning because he does not have an alternative source of income. Without it, Samanya says it would be hard to put his children in school.
"It is my bread and butter," says Samanya, adding that they are caught between a rock and a hard place so they have resorted to charcoal burning as a way of survival.
The State Minister for Environment Flavia Munaaba, during the launch of Earth hour organised by World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) in Kampala noted that the damage being caused by charcoal burning is overwhelming. She also pointed out that a ban on charcoal burning is being considered.
Earth hour is commemorated the world over on March 21 to raise awareness on climate change. "The situation is so bad that some charcoal burners have resorted to cutting down fruit trees," says Munaaba adds that this is unacceptable because such trees have nutritional and medicinal values.
She also points out in case of famine such trees act as a source of food. Samanya is opposed to Munaaba's proposed ban. "Burning charcoal is a source of income and imposing a ban would hurt rural households. I would abandon charcoal burning if I had an alternative."
Munaba's fears are well founded because Nakasongola has run out of trees and what have been left behind are thickets and eweeds such as lantana camara also known as kapanga or kayukiki.
Currently desperate charcoal burners are now going back for remnants that were regarded as inferior trees years ago.Asked what will happen when all the trees get depleted, Samanya replied, "The Government should do something.
We know the Government cannot run out of options." Mugenyi, a forest ranger in Nakasongola says the Government should develop alternatives to charcoal because it is the demand from urban areas that is pushing charcoal burners to cut down trees.
As I talk, there are charcoal dealers camped at Nakitoma, waiting for charcoal, but charcoal is in short supply. Uganda produces charcoal worth sh87b annualy, but the trade employs more than 20,000 people, according to a new study by Dr. Cornelius Kazoora, a private consultant.
But this booming charcoal trade is eating away at Uganda's forest cover. The country, according to Robert Ddamulira, the manager on energy and climate change at the WWF, is losing 92,000 hectares of forest cover annually.
Uganda's forest cover was in 1990, estimated at 4.9 million hectares, covering 24% of the total land area. The State of Environment Report (2008), indicated that by 2005, the forests had reduced to about 3.7m ha (18%) of the total land area of Uganda.
This indicates a loss of about one quarter of the country's forest cover in less than two decades. Currently, biomass fuel is becoming scarce threatening people's nutrition as they avoid certain food such as beans that take long to get ready.
The galloping trend of deforestation is leading to depletion pushing some charcoal burners to migrate to northern and western Uganda.
Charcoal production unsustainable
The wastefulness in the charcoal burning industry is unbelievable, according to Ddamulira. The trees are chopped in pieces and then fired in the traditional kiln.
This technology, according to Ddamulira is inefficient and is part of what is behind the galloping rate of deforestation. "It converts only 10% of the trees into charcoal," he says adding that this means that for every bag of charcoal produced, 9 bags are lost in the process of production.
The consumers have also not helped matters as only 8.5% of the people who use charcoal have improved saving stoves. This, he points out means that most people run out of charcoal faster than should have been the case.
Even when charcoal prices are rising, most of the urban residents are adamant about using more efficient stoves, according to Richard Kisakye, a biomass energy expert.
He says wasteful technologies at production and consumption makes people to run to the forest to burn charcoal more often than when they become armed with efficient technologies.
Charcoal production should be regulated
Better known as dirty energy or poor man's energy, charcoal still lacks the necessary visibility for support. This, according to Kazoora, is the biggest problem because charcoal is despised as a source of energy.
He also points out the national policies and laws on energy, forestry and tree planting do not provide for sustainable charcoal production. In the charcoal producingareas, environment managers told New Vision that even when districts get money from charcoal they do not plough it back into restoration or replenishment of the environment.
The councillors in such districts have turned charcoal into a "cash cow" and they get the bulk of the money in allowances, according to Moses Sekagya, the district environment officer for Nakaseke.
Paul Mwambu, a programme Manager at UNDP agrees with him pointing out that the ministry of energy is concentrating its efforts on a small part of the population.
"Can you imagine that the bulk of the Government resources are being spent on energy resources like electricity serving than 10% of the population?"
He also says the biomass energy (charcoal and firewood) on which serves about 90% of the populations, does not have a budget and is like an orphan in the Ministry of energy.
Globally, charcoal can no longer be ignored, according to Kazoora because it is linked to degradation of the fragile ecological systems in the cattle corridor that covers parts of north eastern Uganda running across central Uganda to western Uganda.
The dry land areas like Nakasogola are becoming drier due to the impacts of climate change globally and degradation is making people more vulnerable to droughts that are becoming frequent in recent years.
Charcoal trade estimated at 6% of the total energy consumption is expanding at the same rate as urbanisation, according to Kazoora. He says Uganda should borrow a leaf from her neighbours.
Kenya's law is recent, but they have regulations on charcoal production with better investment in the charcoal trade, according to Kazoora.
"We want to get a regulatory framework so that we bring big players into the business in order to stimulate the small stake holders," he says adding that making of products like briquettes creates employment, income, environmental benefits and also money from financing mechanisms merging from negotiations on climate change.
As charcoal prices increase, call for sustainable charcoal production as a source of energy and tree planting is becoming louder, Kazoora says.

In French, Foie Gras literally means 'fat liver' and can be taken from either ducks or geese. The liver of these animals is so rich and fatty due to the extremely decedent all corn diet that these animals live on. Grade B Foie Gras is only a small step down from grade A. The biggest differences between the two lie in the color and texture; B is slightly darker and not quite as firm. The flavor is still rich and buttery with earthy accents and a wonderfully fatty mouth feel.
This ingredient is perfect for using in recipes where Foie Gras is a rich accent but not the main focus. Use it in canapés and appetizers. The decadent flavor and texture of the liver will elevate all of your other ingredients to a truly special place.
If you are looking for a wine pairing to go with your Foie Gras dishes, you have many options. Port, Champage or a deep table re wine will all elicit different reactions and emotions when tasted with your fatty treat.

The Wilmington Hammerheads notched their fourth straight win at Legion Stadium with a 3-0 victory against the Charleston Battery in front of a crowd of 4,732 on Saturday night in USL PRO action. The Hammerheads improved their record to 4-1, while the Battery dropped to 3-4.
The Hammerheads pressured Charleston early in the first half with three corner kicks and two shots on goal in the opening 15 minutes. In the 27th minute, midfielder Luke Mulholland fired one into the far corner of the net off a short pass from forward Andriy Budnyy to provide the Hammerheads a 1-0 lead.
The Battery made one last push in the 44th minute with a rocket shot from outside the 18-yard line by forward James Mack. The shot sailed just wide of the far post and Charleston remained behind, 1-0, at the half.
In the second half, the Battery found their form outshooting the Hammerheads, 3-1, in the opening twenty minutes. In the 71st minute, Charleston was denied a goal on an off sides call which would have tied the score 1-all. Minutes later, Battery defender and captain John Wilson received a straight red card leaving Charleston playing with 10 men.
In the 85th minute, Mulholland got the crowd on its feet again with another goal to extend the lead to 2-0. In the 90th minute, midfielder Hakop Aveysan fired a shot into the back of the net to provide the final margin 3-0 in the waning seconds of the game.
Next weekend the Hammerheads will travel for a double header against the Pittsburgh Riverhounds and the Rochester Rhinos. The Battery will also play next Saturday to host the Harrisburg City Islanders for a 7:30 p.m. match.

It boils down to the people can't accept the fact we have a black president. Let's not talk about all the blunders by former Bush (did anyone question his illegal wiretapping?). But every little step Obama takes is so heavily scrutinized. Since when were politics so heavily influenced by religion. "He grew up Muslim." He says he's a christian now. Who cares? Ever converted from Protestant to Catholic? People switch religions all the time. ALL Presidents lie, bend the truth, sell dreams to get into office. But out first black president challenges our children to work harder in school and it's a huge debate. Comparing our president to a dictator is absolutely ignorant... Was it an issue watching the President whenever Bush, Clinton or Bush I spoke? When I was in school and father Bush spoke, this was never an issue or watching the President... Lots of ignorant, racist freaks in the world.
Here go Saints fans, getting hopeful again. Ummm, you could bring in Vince Lombardi, you have to have talent on defense to have a good defense. Not one player in the Saints secondary would start on another team (except Porter). After Vilma, Fujita is ok, and Shanle needs to go. D-Line couldn't sack groceries. Get some talent, then watch what this defense can do.
For all of you idiots saying "the mom shouldn't have let him go." First the courst ordered visitation... Secondly, you think when he asked the mom to keep the kid, she assumed he would kill him? She probably thought, "wow, maybe now he wants to be a part of the child's life." This story has pissed me off more than anything. First the dad is a low-life piece of sh*t, and then we have all these idiots on NOLA.com who have no sympathy for a single mom who just lost her two year old child, and thinks she made a wrong decision by allowing a child to go with his "father." Society is disappointing me more with each passing day. Thanks
For everyone who thinks you can coach talent, wake up!! Before Grant and Smith were signed to HUGE contract, they were underachievers. Good talent helps good coaching and vice versa. When you have mediocre talent and mediocre coaching, you have mediocre results, hence the 8-8 record. For anyone trying to blame Coach O for the defensive line's woes, again, wake up. You lose one starter, the other is just not that good, you get an impressive performance from the rookie, and the free agent signee actually outperformed the starter. Don't tell me you expect the other second tier players to put up career numbers? That's why they are on the bench, they aren't the starters. Get better coaching, talent and front office people, and watch where this franchise goes, to the top.
I love how everyone is so quick to point out how inexperienced everyone is. No one has experience being President, or Secretary of State, until you've been in the position. Being a governor doesn't give you experience for being President. Bush didn't have any experience as President when he was first elected, and look where his "experience" got us in his second term. People hate to face the truth, but all these positions are "on the job" experiences, and the American people are the test subjects.
I love how people point out Obama's lack of experience, when technically, no one has experience until they are President. That's why there's Congress and the President has aides, TO HELP THEM!!! Like Bush was so experienced and prepared to be President, look where that got us. What makes McCain so prepared and experienced to be President?? NOTHING. You have no idea what it takes to be President, until you are sitting in the oval office.
And for everyone sooooo scared of socialism, scroll up and read what S500 said. We have aspects of socialism in our everyday life!! But using the word "socialism" is just too realistic and eye opening for some people. How about society admits the political system is broken and has been for years, and start demanding better performance from our government, instead of constantly voting for the lesser of two evils. This government hasn't provided us with quality candidates in a long time. But I love how society continues to believe one man will change the thinking, beliefs and actions of an entire country...
You just can't make people happy these days. If they hadn't ordered an evacuation, and then thousands of people died, you nitwits wouldve complained that the government didnt move fast enough. Now, they order an evacuation, it goes fairly smooth (but too many people want perfection instead of inconvience) and now you nimrods are mad because the city won't let you in right away?? This would be the same fools that would try and sue the city because a down power line electrocuted their cat. Let the city clean up and insure safety, and you can quickly get back to your ipods and stainless steel appliances and your rose bushes. Get real people. Next time, dont leave. Then we can listen to these same pinheads complain about the power not being restored fast enough, or no clean water immediately. Some people are truly idiots!!
The post by thinksome, about the Red Maple restaurant, is a spam chain email and NOT TRUE. It is being forwarded through emails everywhere. It is a fake incident. Just another example of people spreading ignorance. And again, why does it have to do with fuel in the water?
Sorry the guy died, but maybe look both ways before you cross the street?
I saw two of these freaks on that ABC 26 "Wheel of Justice" crap. And the chick is still on that wheel. Maybe ABC 26 is on to something
I just wish the police could get the equipment to compete with these idiots on the street. The suspect pointed an ASSAULT RIFLE. I can guarantee you the officer had a handgun. Maybe there's something that can be done to level the playing field a bit. If the the suspect had good aim and gotten off a shot, we may be reading about officer Gai's death. It's rough out here folks. Be careful and thank God for officers like Gai and others who take pride in protecting the community.
Killepitsch1, I can't speak for all, but there are some of us who are appalled by the actions of members of our race. But personally, I dont like being lumped in with mistakes and bad decisions being made. I served my country, fought next to people of all races. I graduated from college, and learned even more racial tolerance there. I can speak for myself. i dont know who nominated Jesse and Sharpton to be spokesmen for the black race. They can make all kinds of excuses as to why things are not as rosy as they could be in the black race. regardless of the reasons, doesn't make it right to hate, it just makes it convenient
We are all racists in some sense of the word, but no one wants to face the reality of that. We all tolerate each other in some sense of the word. No, I don't agree with the reverend. I have also heard white pastors make racists comments toward people of middle eastern decent. I actually think people should be able to say what they want. I hate the double standard. Freedome of speech, remember that?? I HATE that everytime the "N" word is uttered, or something else that is utterly retarded is said, here comes Jesse and Sharpton. Too often we give power to words. You call me a n*****, so what? How does that hurt me? Am I gonna die because of a word? NO! But I know I am educated enough and enough of a free thinker to not agree with everything these so called men of God say. And I tell you what, you go to 90% of black churches, they all rant and rave like that, just not with the sme message. And white pastors rant and rave too you know. And you want to talk about "true christianity," look up a period in your history book called the "Crusades."
Since a white man will never know what it's like to be black, and a black man will never know what it's like to be white, let's just accept that there are differences and try to look at each other as what we are first, human beings. But that will never happen, so why did I type it? I guess I'm hopeful that a realization of all the principles this country was built on, would shine above the ignorance and color schemes that seem to dominate the present society's thinking patterns.
userg3533, grassy, my2bits4you... Racism and ignorance at its best. I love it!! Give yourselves a heart warming pat on the back. That's why this country can't progress because of ignorant, closed minded views like yours. I guess you guys agree 100% with what your reverends and family members say. And if you do, you are the mindless, pitiful boobs that don't need to be voting anyway.
But isn't this the nature of the beast? Isn't this how it is at just about every job? You folks not in management, think about a supervisor or manager who makes a crapload more money than you, yet are terrible at their jobs. It's everywhere. We as a society expect perfection... Why?? We have high paid people all acorss the world, who suck at their jobs. Not one person in here would turn down a raise, using the excuse, "you know, I really haven't performed up to standards. i'm gonna pass on this raise." Especially for those of us not making six figure salaries, we expect perfection from those making a high salary. Doesn't work like that people. We complain because Reggie Bush got 26 million guaranteed, yet can't run the ball up the middle. We complain, because everyone on the list makes over 100k, yet the city is still recovering at a snail's pace. Once again, expecting folks to justify their ability to get top dollar. You folks complaining, get into public service and see what differences you can make. Otherwise, come to grips with the fact that this is the world we live in, and has always lived in. It's called capitalism.
The world is filled with racist idiots, and New Orleans is no exception. Black, white, gay straight... New Orleans needs the money. Get to know people before making idiotic, racist or homophobic comments. Not every black is a criminal and not every gay is a child molester. People are individuals. Grow up folks! There can't be this much ignorance still floating around, and if there is, New Orleans and the world is in worse shape than we all may think.
The racists who usually make the ignorant comments about color won't post on this board. But I ask God to give strength to everyone touched by this tragic incident.
I also saw Richey's first sportscast today and this guy is 5 times better than Eric and Damon??? Yeah right. You have to be kidding, please tell me you are kidding. And for the record, trying paying attention. It was the FORMER employee that called the kid from Lafayette an A-hole. The only way these guys will do a better job is if they get more resources than Eric and Damon to do the job, which they probably will. But as far as on-air prescence, I choose Clemons, and Damon, over this Richey cat anyday. And since 504boy is an insider, answer why Eric and Damon didn't get the resources they needed? I can't wait for this one.
Just to illustrate how BAD things are at Fox 8, Darrell Greene is now leaving. Yeah, he's going to a better job, but people are jumping ship at Fox 8 at a scary pace. Learn to treat your employees better Fox 8 management! Go Eric and Damon!

The holidays are upon us once again. If you've already sent out your annual greeting cards, congratulations for being so organized. If you haven't, well, neither have I. Either way, 'tis the season for punctuation anxiety, because this is one of the only times of year when people are forced to ponder the correct way to form the plural of their last name (and then mail out three hundred printed versions of it). More often than not, the confusion surrounding this subject results in a sea of incorrect apostrophes just begging to be put out of their misery. And that's why I'm here: to ensure that whether you're a Johnson, a Jones, or a Jiménez, you know how to put your family's best grammatical face forward.
The Basics
Let's say your last name is Johnson. Lucky you—all you have to do is…Continue

Last week, I spent four days at the San Francisco Writers Conference, meeting with fiction and nonfiction authors in various stages of the writing and publishing process. One of the most frequent questions people asked me was, "What does an editor do, and what kind of editor do I need?" So I thought I'd dedicate this week's Grammergency post not to a specific grammatical issue but to breaking down the general title of editor into three distinct roles.
Developmental Editor
Whether you are in the midst of writing a book or have a complete first draft, a developmental editor is the first kind of professional editor you should consult. Developmental editors help authors address all of the big-picture aspects of good storytelling, including structure, sequencing, pacing, scene and…Continue

Virtually every time I log on to my Twitter page, I try to avoid looking at the upper-right-hand corner, where the words "Who to follow" appear. Is there no one at this multibillion-dollar company, I wonder, who can add one little "m" to turn this grammatical error into the correct version of the phrase: "Whom to follow"? I guess not. That's why I want to give you a quick tip this week on when to use "who" and when to use "whom"—so that if you ever found your own tech start-up, you can help teach your users good language skills while you make your millions.
"Who" Versus "Whom": The Breakdown
"Who" is a nominative form, used as a subject—e.g., "Who are you?" and "Who's calling?" and "The boy who cried wolf." "Whom" is…Continue

I recently got an email asking me which of the following sentences is grammatically correct:
"As we walked past the house, neither Mr. Smith nor his daughter were in the yard"
"As we walked past the house, neither Mr. Smith nor his daughter was in the yard."
The second sentence, which uses "was," is the correct one, but beyond that, this exchange got me thinking about a larger pattern I've been noticing: the pairing of singular antecedents with plural modifiers. These erroneous combinations are everywhere, from TV shows to advertisements to books, and today I'm going to talk about why they don't work.
Either, Neither, and None
"Either," "neither," and "none" are all singular pronouns, meaning "the one or the other," "not the one or the…Continue

Never in the 24 years of Thistle Diary has an item provoked a greater and more distinguished professorial response than my description of canvassing C. T. R. Wilson in Carlops in 1958. Now his son, Charlie Wilson, has sent me a rare photograph, not of Paris 1926 (which I saw in C. T. R's house) but of Brussels 1927.
The picture is reproduced at the bottom of the page. These were the people who transformed the 20th century. As Charlie Wilson writes to me, 'this must be almost unique, as at that time, there was little travelling and gatherings were very rare'. The meeting took place at the Solvay Institute in October 1927. Five of them already had Nobel prizes, another five would win them later. See how many you can spot. C. T. R, by the way, is in the front row, second from the right.

Bones Season 7, Episode 3 – Top Quotations from "The Prince in the Plastic"
With Daisy (Carla Gallo) providing reliable comic relief and Angela (Michaela Conlin) on laugh-fire this week, there sure were a lot of quotations to choose from in Bones's latest episode! Here are our top three:
1. Daisy: "Lance is so smart. And soon... he'll be able to shoot people."
We know that Daisy is supposed to be the token annoying squint, but her lines this week were just hilarious, and her chemistry (and comic timing) with both Hodgins and Booth really shined this time around. In fact, a close runner-up for this list comes from Daisy's jaunt with Booth through the toy factory: "You don't have to direct anything toward me. I'm not allowed to speak."
2. Booth (David Boreanaz): "I can't do that; I'm with the FBI. What we do is disclose."
Now, Daisy's half of this week's Daisy-Booth duo might not have made the list today (she's well-represented enough, though, right?), but Booth's sure did. When Bianca (Morgan Fairchild) demands that the two investigators sign a nondisclosure agreement, this is how Booth responds. Classic Booth: polite but forceful, and with a peppering of wit that just can't be beat.
3. Hodgins (TJ Thyne): "To make seat with secure, to fasten red pin B to happy." Angela: "There is nothing happy."
As we gushed in the recap, Angela has never been better at pulling the laughs out of a scene. Indeed, while this is the highlight of the "Angela versus baby-walker" subplot, she truly had us in stitches pretty much the whole time she was grappling with the hell-spawned toy. She delivered even in the final moments of the episode — when inviting Brennan to the toy store with her and baby, she said, "You can hold Michael... while I yell at people." Behold: the ne plus ultra of comic pauses.
That's a wrap for today! Got any choice words you'd like to add?

Conversion available?
Hello Folks,
I would like to know whether there is a conversion to DND 3rd of the Supplement 'Drow of the Underdark' available.
In particular a conversion of the spells would be wonderful.
If anyone had already made a conversion please let me know.
Thank you all for your help
EricStatement: DND ist ein satanisches Spiel!
Answer: Speak in English please!
But from the look of your idiotic face I can tell it's not worth translating.

EUGENE, Ore. (12/4/2009) - Boise State saw its seven-game win streak snapped Friday night in Eugene, Ore., when the Oregon Ducks ran past the Broncos 88-61. It was one of those nights where nothing went right for the visitors as a combination of poor shooting, early foul trouble and turnovers were to much to overcome against a good Oregon squad. Tasha Harris and Jessica Van Hoogen led the Broncos with 15 points apiece as Boise State fell to 7-1 on the year.
Boise State knew it had its hands full with the challenge that Oregon presented them coming into the game. The Ducks are coached by Paul Westhead who's Loyola Marymount University men's teams of the late 80's and early 90's were famous for racing up and down the floor as one the highest scoring teams in the nation.
Well Westhead's Oregon women's team plays the same way with a high pace game that put the cold shooting Broncos down early opening with an 11-2 run in the first four minutes. Add to the Duck offensive attack foul trouble to Boise State's top three post players, Janie Bos, Rebecca Kepilino and Melissa Rima who were all sitting on the bench by the 15 minute mark with two fouls, and it added up to a long night for the blue and orange.
Before the Broncos could blink Oregon had opened up a insurmountable lead. With 12:06 showing on the clock the Ducks were up 16 points, 23-7, and never looked back as Boise State was unable to recover. By the end of the half the lead had reached 31 points before a late Boise State basket cut it to 29 points, 53-24, at the break.
Boise State played better in the second half but the halftime deficit was too much. The closest the Broncos would get was 24 points, 60-36, with 14:18 left to play. The Ducks eventually stretch their lead to a game-high 34 points, 78-44, with 7:50 remaining.
On the positive side the Broncos' freshmen post duo of Kinzi Poteet and Lauren Lenhardt played a lot of minutes and looked good banging in the paint with Oregon's front line. They combined for 27 minutes, 10 points and eight rebounds, as well as, posing a challenge down low for the Duck forwards defensively.
On the night, Boise State struggled to get anything to fall for them finishing the game shooting a season-low 32.4 percent (24-74) from the floor, 21.7 percent (5-23) from the 3-point arc and a season-low 44.4 percent (8-18) from the free-throw line. Conversely, Oregon was solid from the floor as they scored easy baskets off Bronco turnovers and open shots. The Ducks ended the game converting 38.6 percent (32-83) from the court, 37.9 percent (11-29) from the arc and 61.9 percent (13-21) from the charity stripe.
One of the biggest factors in the game were Boise State's season-high 26 turnovers resulting in a 31 to 14 advantage for Oregon in points off turnovers, the Broncos had 18 give-a-ways by halftime.
Turnovers and poor shooting were key in the loss as the Broncos match the Ducks relatively close in shots, 3-pointers and free throws attempted. Oregon just made more of theirs while Boise State struggled. The Broncos even out rebounded the Ducks 55 to 53, and 23 to 21 in offensive boards.
Harris led Boise State with 15 points, a team-high nine rebounds, one assist and one block. Van Hoogen matched Harris' points while adding six boards, two assists, one block, and two steals. Lauren Lenhardt was third in scoring with six points to go with three rebounds.
The Ducks had five players in double-figure points led by Amanda Johnson with 20 points, nine rebounds, four assists, and three steals. Taylor Lilley followed with 15 points, Jasmin Holliday added a double-double on 12 points and 13 boards. Micaela Cocks and Nia Jackson each chipped in 11 points.
Boise State concludes a six-game road swing over the last three weeks Sunday afternoon when they take on the University of Portland (4-3) at 3:00 p.m. (Mountain) at the Chiles Center on the U of P campus. The Pilots lost Wednesday night at Oregon 95-68 then rebounded Friday night to defeat Pacific (Calif.) 80-66 in Portland. Oregon improved to 7-1 with the win over Boise State.

Is there a way to transfer all of the posts (which are attached to an audio file uploaded on Wordpress) to the new theme with minimal interuption or problem?
Thank you for any help.
Posted 20 December 2012 - 01:48 PM
a theme is 'nothing more' than a skin on your site and over the site's content. Changing the theme has no effect on posts, pages, categories etc.
So there is no 'transferring' posts from one theme to another. Your posts are stored in the database, regardless of the theme.
hope that clarifies,

Pepi Ginsberg arrived a little early to Heathers for her installment of FADER TV's Open Bar series. She had a band with her, minus a drummer who was out looking for a large cardboard box he could use as a drum. He found one and it was surprisingly loud. They played "The Waterline," which we wrote about awhile back. Since the release of Red, Ginsberg has reworked much of that album's material with this new band into long form jammers full of tropical guitar solos. After they were done playing, she did an impression of Bob Dylan, which made sense since her singing already put him in our minds.

John Hamlin's parade wagon, Durham, July 4, 1938
Contributed by Durham Historical Society
Local farmer and trapper John Hamlin sits in his wagon as part of Durham's 150th anniversary celebration parade on July 4, 1938. The man next to him is unidentified. If the hard-to-read sign on the back of the wagon, and the anvil in the center of it, is to be believed, he may well have also been the town's blacksmith.

A "robotic" dentist's drill is to be tested on humans in Europe and the US, and could represent the first step towards more automated dental procedures.
The drill, developed by Tactile Technologies, based in Rehovot, Israel, is designed to take the complexity out of dental implant work. It could make operations cheaper, quicker and less painful for patients, its developers claim.
A dental implant is a small metal pin fixed into the jaw to mimic a tooth's root. It is used to anchor replacement teeth and bridges and installing one normally involves complicated and lengthy surgery.
Tactile Technologies has already tested parts of the system on animals and recently received approval from the US Food and Drug Administration to begin trials on humans.
Press of a button
Firstly, a frame is clamped onto a patient's jaw and very thin needles penetrate the gum to determine the location of the bone. This data is wirelessly transmitted to a PC, which combines it with CT scan data to configure a set of drill guides. The guides are then attached to the frame and finally the dentist presses a button to start the drilling in the precise location required.
Once activated the drill is self-guiding but Opher Kinrot, who designed the system, stresses that the practitioner can still alter the drilling process at any time. "The system causes less trauma and brings dental implants to the general practitioner," says Kinrot, who designed the system. "Today it is only done by experts."
And he says this could be just the first step towards more automated dentistry. "In the future maybe something will actually drill for the dentist too," he told New Scientist.
"It sounds like quite a good idea," says Kevin Seymour, a dental expert at Queen Mary's School of Medicine and Dentistry in London, UK. The information provided by the probing needles could be very useful, he says, but this might also have a long term impact on the gums: "This soft tissue around an implant is important to its success."
Tactile Technologies plans to begin trials of the system at several unnamed hospitals in Europe and the US in summer 2005. The entire system is forecast to cost about $1000.

Arkansas gas prices up 20 cents since January
LITTLE ROCK (AP) — The average price for a gallon of unleaded gas in Arkansas is $3.43 — which is 20 cents higher than it was a month ago.
The AAA says the national average today is $3.57 a gallon. That's also up almost 20 cents from last month.
The surge in gas prices follows an increase in the price of oil.
In Arkansas, the Pine Bluff metro area had the most expensive gas, averaging $3.47 a gallon. The price was $3.43 in the Little Rock-North Little Rock area, and $3.36 in northwest Arkansas.
Prices in Texarkana were $3.43 per gallon.

"I've seen a lot of Kentucky teams and this may be as good as I've seen," coach Rick Stansbury said.
New rules bring excitement to Daytona
DAYTONA BEACH (AP) — Kyle Busch twice appeared destined to destroy his race car, and twice used breathtaking saves to keep on running around Daytona International Speedway.
He probably shouldn't have been in position to race with the leaders. Yet there he was, bearing down on the finish line with a shot at winning Saturday night's exhibition Budweiser Shootout, and with a slingshot pass on the outside of defending NASCAR champion Tony Stewart, Busch pulled off a miraculous win in the first event of 2012.
Not too shabby of a start to the season.

What should we do to ensure student safety online?Posted by John in Cyber Safety, tags: blogging, blogs, cyerbersafety, safety, socialmedia, socialnetworking
– Should students use their names?
– Should we include student photos?
– Who should be allowed to visit and comment on the blog?
– How do we ensure student confidentiality when working online?
– And most importantly, how do we teach online safety to students?
The answers to these questions aren't simple and, even where there is broad agreement about the issues involved, the answers don't come in a simple 'one-size fits all' package.

The mayor of a key town in central Somalia resigned Wednesday night with emerging reports indicating his resignation is linked to violence among Islamist factions, Radio Garowe reports.
Sheikh Aden Omar "Jilibay" told reporters in Beletwein, capital of Hiran region, that clan leaders pressured him to resign from the post of Beletwein mayor.
He noted that "ongoing developments among Islamists" contributed to his resignation, but categorically denied that he was threatened or resigned due to fear.
Sheikh Jilibay said he was a businessman before being appointed mayor of Beletwein by the Islamic Courts Union (ICU) administration that governors the town.
Pro-government ICU militias have been battling for control of parts of Hiran region in recent weeks, as anti-government Al Shabaab fighters spread their war campaign in the central regions.

Pet Food Stamps, a non-profit based in New York, is offering food stamps to families across the United States who cannot afford to feed their pets.
The program launched about two weeks ago and is gaining traction—the website is so busy, it is temporarily unavailable. Founder Marc Okon told ABC News he gets several thousand applications daily. With many of the applications including multiple pets, the number of pets applied for so far totals more than 40,000.
"The love of a pet, the therapeutic ability of a pet and things like that are impossible to measure," Okon said.
Some Twitter feedback showed less enthusiasm about helping those who currently can't afford it to have pets.
"More Incentives for a dependent Cradle to Grave (even pets!)" Tweets @JediPD.
"Stop the Insanity!" Tweets @KatyAbram
"If you can't afford to feed your pet you can't afford a pet," Tweets @ValentineShow.
"I love pets but really? What about shots, etc?" Tweets @MomSense.
Okon hopes to ease the burden on animal shelters.
The program's website reads: "The Pet Food Stamps program … has been created to fill the void in the United States Food Stamp program which excludes the purchase of pet food and pet supplies. In these rough economic times, many pet owners are forced to abandon their beloved pet to the ASPCA, North Shore Animal League or other animal shelters due to the inability to pay for their basic food supply and care."
Income background checks are done to ensure the applicant qualifies. Okon says if people qualifies for federal food assistance, they will probably qualify for pet food stamps.

And the bike will come fitted with a new experimental brake system called discs !

New stellarator experiments have been launched since the last compilation of the international stellarator database in 1995. Parameter regimes have been extended by Large Helical Device (LHD), and a variety of improved modes have been found since then. The revision of the international stellarator database has been initiated, driven by these emerging interests and by the requirements for a reactor assessment. Some provisional issues are discussed. An understanding of configurational effects is a prerequisite to the derivation of a unified scaling. Differences in magnetic geometry are influential in characterizing energy confinement. The results from the magnetic axis and elongation scans in LHD are highlighted. Comparison with tokamak confinement is also addressed. The revision of the database is in progress, and this paper is an interim report.

Operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), yesterday failed to arrest the former governor of Kogi State, Abubakar Audu, as the ex-governor fled his 32 Suleiman Barau Street, Asokoro residence in Abuja, before their arrival.
According to a statement from the spokesman of the commission, Wilson Uwujaren, the attempted arrest of the former governor who is being tried for fraudulently enriching himself to the tune of over N4 billion while he was governor of Kogi State between 1999 and 2003, followed a Supreme Court ruling of November 23, 2012, which dismissed his appeal meant to stall his corruption trial by EFCC.
The Supreme Court ruling therefore clears the way for his fresh arraignment.
Recalled that Audu was arrested in Jos in 2006 after a six-month manhunt by operatives of the commission, before his earlier arraignment at the Kogi State High Court on December 1, 2006, on an 80-count charge of criminal conspiracy, fraud, breach of trust and embezzlement of public fund.
The EFCC had, while the case lasted at the high court, cause issuance of nolle prosequi by the former Attorney- General of Kogi State, Dr. John Alewo Agbonika and the Attorney General of the Federation, Chief Bayo Ojo, on February 8, 2007 for the case to be discontinued at the Kogi State High Court as the commission claimed to have lost faith in the handling of the matter by the state High Court.
But rather than discontinue the matter in the spirit of the nolle prosequi, the trial judge, Justice Medupin, went ahead to refer two questions to the Court of Appeal for determination.
In a judgment delivered by Justice Bode Rhodes-Vivour, the Supreme Court held that the Court of Appeal was wrong to consider the questions referred to it for determination after being aware from the records of appeal that a nolle prosequi had been filed.
Part of the setback suffered by the commission in the prosecution of the case was the filing of several applications by the defendant for stay of proceedings at the High Court pending the final determination of the appeal.
Audu had on December 12, 2011, through his lead counsel, Mike Ozekhome (SAN), filed a stay of proceedings supported by 11-paragraph affidavit.
This was 26 clear days after the Supreme Court on November 16, 2011, struck out a similar application he filed on January 24, 2011.
