Quoting Quiverfull: A Ministry Head Cheating is a Predictable Cycle?
by Natalie Klejwa of Visionary Womanhood - Thinking About Vision Forum I'm sad about what has happened, but I'm not shocked. It hasn't rocked my world. Not even a little. I think that's because I've seen so many good ministries start off – grow – falter in their adolescence – and then crumble. It's a predictable cycle. So this post is really about perspective. … [Read more...]
Quoting Quiverfull: A Truly Submissive Heart For Marriage?
by Matthew Chapman - Thoughts on Betrothal (15 Years Later) Many Christian homeschooling homes, on the other hand, seem to provide young women with a more natural context in which to come forth—that is, if the parents have an eye for this and their time is used wisely. This is not only true in daughters learning homemaking skills from their mothers, but in the Lord fashioning in them a gentle and quiet spirit. Daughters can also develop a truly submissive heart in how they relate to their parents, and particularly their father, for one day they will have another man with whom they must submissively relate to as their head. … [Read more...]

Quoting Quiverfull: Cultural Comformity and Compromise?
by Geoff Botkin apologizing for his early comments on Christian Rap music - NCFIC Blog: An Apology "I need to apologize for the unintended offense and confusion of my comments on disobedient cowardice. I certainly do not believe that all of today's Christian rappers are cowardly. My most sincere apologies go to anyone out there who was hurt by my strong language. While I do hold concerns about the use and misuse of rap, my words were not directed at any particular artist. My greater concern is for the broad cultural conformity and compromise that is not limited to reformed rap." … [Read more...]
Quoting Quiverfull: Feminism Killed the Family?
by Phyllis Schlafly from WND and Ladies Against Feminism - Who killed the American Family? A combination of forces abolished the American family as we knew it. The many factors include changes in the law such as unilateral divorce, court decisions especially abuses by the family courts, the culture, curricula and customs from elementary grades through college, taxpayer financial incentives for illegitimacy, and pronouncements of self-appointed experts who think they know how to manage … [Read more...]
Quoting Quiverfull: Unevenly Yoked Kills 'The Blessing'?
by Colin Campbell in Meat For Men - Biblical Fatherhood: Role Modeling Love The phrase "all things " is incredible and could include vast multitudes of personal desires, as well as impersonal. However, we cannot expect God to answer any prayer that is outside of His character and will for our lives. We are only entitled to hope for "all things" that are within the boundaries of His will. … [Read more...]

by Vaughn Ohlman from his blog The Practical Theonomist in response to LAF's claiming that women are being forced into combat positions in the US Military. A Design FlawI was conversing over on NLQ with a woman about the issue of women in the military, and whether or not they should be in combat. Since it is my view that women shouldn't be in the military at all, I don't really have a dog in that hunt.

If there's a spark/connection then I'd look to see where things go and if not then we can be friends or acquaintances. Not looking for needy, high maintenance, or dramatic. What I go for...I have weaknesses for artistic women, curly hair, curves, brown eyes, wit, compassion, intelligence, integrity, originality, flirtation, and confidence. Be smart and say hello 😉

Oooohhhhh intersections...I think my biggest driving pet peeve (and I have thousands) is people who blindly go through a light to "get through it" when there's no room and end up blocking the intersection after the light has changed, thus stopping the flow of traffic from at least three directions. This makes me convulse. I have serious road rage problems, most of which could probably be put to rest if people just followed the rules.
There is no such thing as a pitching prospect.
I am perpetually annoyed with left turn arrows that do not illuminate when I am clearly in the left turn lane. I think it's due to the programming of the switches, so that if I pull up to the light when the cross traffic light is yellow, rather than green, the system will not create the arrow for my lane. It's a "smart system" acting stupid.

Abstract | References | Similar Articles | Additional Information
Abstract: In 1969, A. C. Lazer and D. E. Leach proved an existence theorem for periodic solutions of Duffing's equations with bounded perturbations at resonance. In the present note, with the use of a topological technique, the author extended some results of Lazer and Leach to an -dimensional Duffing system with unbounded perturbations at resonance.

Court warns AGF, CBN over Islamic banking licence
The Attorney General of the Federation and justice Minister, Mr. Mohammed Adoke (SAN) was yesterday told by a Federal High Court, Abuja, to enforce the guidelines on banking operation in the country.
Justice Gabriel Kolawole said any operation licence granted by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) to any Islamic commercial jurisprudence bank under non-interest financial services is "unlawful, illegal, ultra vires, null and void".
Justice Kolawole gave the warning while delivering judgment in a suit by an Abuja-based lawyer, Sunday Ogboji.
The plaintiff challenged the apex bank for issuing operation licence to JAIZ Islamic Bank.
The defendants were the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), its governor, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi and Adoke.
Justice Kolawole, however, struck out the case because Ogboji lacked the locus standi to initiate the action.
The court said if the plaintiff had locus standi,the licence granted JAIZ Islamic Bank by the CBN would have been voided.
Curiously, he noted that the plaintiff did not help his case by not joining the bank as a defendant.
Justice Kolawole said the guidelines issued by the CBN upon which the Islamic Banking licence was granted had no statutory basis upon which its legality could be substantiated.
According to him, as at the time the licence was granted, there was no substantive Minister of Finance who was vested with the power for approval under the Banks and Other Financial Institutions Act CAP B2 Laws of the Federation of Nigeria 2004.
Although he agreed that the CBN has power to issue banking licence, he declared that only the Finance Minister has the power of approval.
But the judge maintained that the reliefs sought could not succeed because the plaintiff failed to convince the court on how the CBN's action infringed on his civil rights and obligations or he has suffered greater damages than other thousands of legal practitioners.
He maintained that his claim of being a legal practitioner did not confer locus standi on him.
The judge, however, advised the AGF to ensure that the CBN and Sanusi act only within the powers vested in them, adding that he should put a machinery in place to check the trend.
The plaintiff had asked the court to stop the first and second defendants from issuing banking licence or guidelines in respect of any bank not listed in Banks and Other Financial Institutions Act CAP B2 Laws of the Federation of Nigeria 2004, until same is legislated upon and created by the National Assembly.
He also asked the court to declare the purported guidelines for the regulation and supervision of institution offering non-interest financial services in the country under Islamic commercial jurisprudence issued by the CBN unlawful, illegal, null and void.
"A declaration of court that any banking licence issued to anybody, person or institution pursuant to the purported regulation issued by the CBN in respect of non-interest financial services in Nigeria under the principle of Islamic commercial jurisprudence is unlawful, illegal, ultra vires, null and void.
"A declaration of court that only the National Assembly can lawfully and validly designate the other banks provided for, in the Banks and Other Financial Institutions Act (BOFIA) B2 Laws of the Federation of Nigeria, 2004 to the exclusion of any other body or institution", he stated.
A 12-paragrapgh affidavit in support of the motion and deposed to by the plaintiff himself said there is nothing like non-interest financial institution in both the CBN Act 2007 and the BOFIA ActCAP B2 L.F.N 2004 and as such, the CBN Governor has no power to unilaterally issue a banking lines.

J.J. Redick gives Clippers offseason an F, unless there's an F-minusDan Devine at Ball Don't Lie 10 hrs ago
Things aren't exactly going the Los Angeles Clippers' way right about now. After a horrifically disappointing end to the 2014-15 season that saw them lose three straight games to the Houston Rockets — including a shocking Game 6 in which they blew a 19-point lead with 14 1/2 minutes remaining — to once again bow out of the postseason before the Western Conference finals, the Clips suffered another gutwrenching loss in free agency, when DeAndre Jordan agreed to a four-year, $80 million deal with the Dallas Mavericks.

Cuban fined $25K for discussing Jordan, Matthews signings during FA moratoriumDan Devine at Ball Don't Lie 12 hrs ago
After his Dallas Mavericks landed two of this summer's most sought-after free agents, agreeing to terms on four-year deals with center DeAndre Jordan and shooting guard Wesley Matthews, owner Mark Cuban was so thrilled that he couldn't wait to share his excitement with the world.
[Follow Dunks Don't Lie on Tumblr: The best slams from all of basketball]
By openly discussing the deals for Matthews and Jordan, then, Cuban violated those rules. As a result, the NBA on Tuesday fined him $25,000. More from Stein:
We're guessing Cuban enjoyed the feeling of summertime victory far more than he feels the pain of paying a fine for sharing it.

Bucks prez repeats relocation threat, invokes Seattle, Vegas if arena funding not approvedDan Devine at Ball Don't Lie 16 hrs ago
This should be a happy time for Milwaukee Bucks fans. They're coming off a massive turnaround, vaulting from an NBA-worst 15-67 record in 2013-14 to a .500 mark at 41-41 and a shocking playoff berth last season. New head coach Jason Kidd and assistant Sean Sweeney led a complete point-prevention overhaul in Year 1, lifting Milwaukee from the NBA's second-worst defensive efficiency mark in '13-'14 to its second-best last season.

Mario Hezonja throws down monster dunk vs. Thunder in Summer LeagueDan Devine at Ball Don't Lie 18 hrs ago
Heading into the 2015 NBA draft, the book on top prospect Mario Hezonja was that he was supremely confident in both his abilities and his athleticism. "Confident" is a softener, actually; folks who'd scouted the Croatian swingman as he plied his trade at Barcelona of Spain's ACB (and those who followed the reports as they made their way across the Atlantic) said he was flat-out cocky, the type of dude who calls opponents' ankles fragile goods and says he wants "to run over everybody" whenever he steps on the court.

Reggie and the full effect: Is Jackson the right man for Pistons' present, future?Dan Devine at Ball Don't Lie 1 day ago
We've written about this before: the primary reason that restricted free agency exists is to give NBA decision-makers one situation where they can help themselves.
While unrestricted free agents can sign anywhere they'd like after wrapping up their contracts with their previous employers, restricted free agents tend to have fewer options. They can solicit offers from other suitors, but their incumbent teams can match those offers, a "right of first refusal" that allows teams to suss out the market value of their players coming off rookie-scale contracts before deciding whether to re-up or cut bait. The whole point is to keep front-office members from unnecessarily overspending by sharply limiting the scope of prospective bidding wars for this particular class of players. It's about cost control.

Knicks bring in Robin Lopez, continue to build toward a new normalDan Devine at Ball Don't Lie 4 days ago
Here's what's important to remember, the fact that casts the rest of it in proper context: the New York Knicks were terrible last year.
I mean, sure, they were bad the year before, when they missed the playoffs just one season after winning 54 games, the Atlantic Division and a playoff series for the first time since the Clinton Administration. But they were intensely heinous last season, finishing with the second-worst record in the NBA and the worst mark in franchise history ... and, sepia-tinged remembrances of Willis and the Rolls Royce backcourt and the sweat of Patrick Ewing's labor aside, there's been an awful lot of "worst" in this franchise's history.
[Follow Dunks Don't Lie on Tumblr: The best slams from all of basketball]
The two sides reached terms Friday, according to Woj, that come in a bit higher than the earlier report:
The Knicks are finalizing a four-year, $54 million agreement with free agent center Robin Lopez, league sources tell Yahoo Sports.
Only a highly improbable DeAndre Jordan change of heart on choosing between Clippers and Mavericks could derail Lopez deal in New York.

Monta Ellis gets $44 million to bring points, playmaking to PacersDan Devine at Ball Don't Lie 5 days ago
Two summers back, coming off an unsuccessful year-and-a-half-long stint with the Milwaukee Bucks, Monta Ellis struggled to generate interest in free agency. The former Golden State Warriors spark plug withered on the vine until the second week of July before eventually inking a three-year, $25.1 million make-good deal with the Dallas Mavericks.
After spending two years making often-beautiful music with the likes of Dirk Nowitzki, Brandan Wright and Tyson Chandler in the high-screen game under Rick Carlisle, Ellis elected to opt out of the final year of his contract, betting that the promise of a rising salary cap would embolden some suitor to splash the cash and give the 29-year-old shooting guard a raise from the $8.7 million he was set to make.

Ellis chose the Pacers over the Kings, who offered about $4.3 million more, source says.

This study, http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/bph.12139/abstract soon to be published in the British Journal of Pharmacology and available now as an abstract online, delineates the mechanisms by which minocycline reduces inflammation. This peer-reviewed article critically reviews recent human and animal research demonstrating the potential for minocycline to provide neuroprotection and ameliorate the impairments experienced by those affected by traumatic brain injury (TBI), stroke and Alzheimer's disease. The authors elucidate how minocycline exerts neuroprotective and neuroregenerative effects in response to TBI, stroke and Alzheimer's. These processes are entirely different from those of etanercept. Perispinally administered etanercept inhibits the production of TNF-alpha in the brain. Minocycline also inhibits the production of TNF-alpha as well as a number of related cytokines. In 2012 Augusto Ramirez, M.D., began treating TBI, stroke and Alzheimer's patients with perispinal Enbrel coupled with oral minocycline. The result has been improved outcomes. This article: Minocycline: Far beyond an Antibiotic provides broad scientific rationale for the inclusion of oral minocycline adjunctively with perispinally administered etanercept for the treatment of TBI, stroke and Alzheimer's disease.
Neurological Wellness Center began holding perispinal injection technique training courses in the spring of 2011. Since then physicians, nurses and lay caregivers have come from around the world to their Center in Managua, Nicaragua for individualized instructional courses teaching this procedure. Presently Neurological Wellness Center remains the only institution in the world teaching this perispinal Enbrel injection procedure. For more information about Neurological Wellness C

It was 10 years ago today that Rodney King was beaten in what became an enduring symbol of police brutality and a flashpoint for racial tensions.
It also proved to be the first in a series of blows that have shattered the reputation of the Los Angeles Police Department.
Mere mention of the 1991 beating causes those in power to cringe as they recall the morning the city awoke to a chilling video of the black motorist being clubbed and kicked over and over by four white police officers as he writhed in agony on the ground.
The video, made by an onlooker, shocked the public and led Police Chief Daryl Gates to condemn the officers' actions.
But that was just the beginning. There would be three trials — one of them ending in the conviction of two officers — and the worst race riot Los Angeles had ever seen. When the smoke cleared on May 2, 1992, 55 people were dead and 2,383 were injured. Damage was put at $1 billion.
Gates was driven from the LAPD. Commissions were empaneled and made wide-ranging recommendations for reform.
'Grim Picture for the LAPD'
Yet in the years to come, reform efforts would be overshadowed by events that would further damage the police force whose reputation for integrity and excellence was burnished by TV shows like Dragnet and Adam-12.
The King beating was followed by criticism of how police handled the 1992 riots and later the O.J. Simpson case. And now, the department is struggling with a corruption scandal in its Rampart division that has led to more than 100 convictions being overturned.
"Rodney King was about police abuse, O.J. was about police incompetence, and Rampart is about police corruption. That's a pretty grim picture for the LAPD," said Laurie Levenson, a Loyola University Law School professor. "What Rodney King taught us is you can't ignore the problems and hope they will go away."
District Attorney Steve Cooley, who was elected in November and whose office is prosecuting the Rampart corruption cases, said morale on the LAPD has been devastated.
"People who worked all their lives for this department are leaving," he said. "Right now they're in the hurt locker. Healing takes a long time. Law enforcement needs esprit de corps and pride. Something will have to happen to make them proud again. Maybe it will be some effective reforms."
Commission Brought Reforms
After the King beating, a commission headed by former Secretary of State Warren Christopher was assembled to come up with reforms. Some were implemented, some were not.
Christopher said recently that the report had significant results in strengthening the city's civilian police commission, limiting the police chief's term and creating the office of inspector general.
But he said there is still a need for better training, regular psychological testing of officers and a system of tracking citizen complaints.
More Black Eyes
In any case, the Simpson murder trial in 1995 would bring new disrepute on the department. The LAPD was accused of mishandling scientific evidence and was criticized over Detective Mark Fuhrman, who eventually admitted committing perjury in denying he used racial slurs. In an embarrassment for the police force and the district attorney's office, the case ended in the former football star's acquittal.

I've loved westerns and science fiction since I picked up my first book at the public library.
I've been writing on my computer for years. I never planned on any of my stories being published, just to be read by myself, family, and friends. The base journal is on forty spreadsheets with links to about a thousand files of short one day paragraphs plus other stories.
A relative suggested that I aim for a wider audience. If you like my musings, comment on them.
Review by:
on April 08, 2014 :
When I read in this pamphlet that the USA government has "gotten bigger under the Obama administration," I wondered if the writer was joking. Then the writer offered a few suggestions on how to improve the federal government which the Obama administration has already done, and I thought the pamphlet is a parody. If the writer is serious, however, then the writer has not been paying attention to the past six years of vital and necessary improvements. Such as a vastly stronger set of regulations mandating fiscal responsibility within government; re-regulating Wall Street to prevent another Bush2 Recession, and avoiding a depression; stronger consumer protection; making government more transparent to voters; helping provide access to health care for many millions of people who did not have access to healthcare.

Don't Drink the Water is a 1969 comedy film starring Jackie Gleason and directed by Howard Morris, and based upon a 1966 play of the same name by Woody Allen. The supporting cast includes Estelle Parsons and Ted Bessell.
In 1994 Allen remade Don't Drink the Water for television, with himself in the Gleason role.[1]
Walter Hollander, a caterer, is on vacation with his wife Marion and daughter Susan. While flying to Athens, their plane is hijacked to Vulgaria, behind the Iron Curtain. While waiting for the plane to be cleared to take off again, Marion insists they go outside and take a few pictures. Unfortunately they are in a restricted area so the secret police suspect them of being spies. Inspector Krojak sends a squad of soldiers with machine guns to arrest them, and the Hollanders flee to the car of the American ambassador which is parked nearby.
The Hollanders take refuge in the U.S. Embassy nearby. The ambassador is away, leaving only his inept son Axel Magee to grant the Hollanders political asylum. Picketers protest outside the embassy as everyone tries to figure a way out. Walter and Marion even don a sultan's robes and attempt to sneak out with his party, but complicating matters further is that Susan has fallen in love with Axel.

Re: Blizzard changes arguments wrt game balance questions, when it comes to locks
Problem is, those trinkets are useless when people can just be feared again. It's the chaining that really needs addressing, as it leaves others with no chance in hell.
But what really gets me here, is all the other nerfs. Take all the pet x normalizations hunters have had to endure from one patch to the next, as people would mention pets no less then fear. In all those cases, the argument of game balance comes up, and end of it. But now, what do we get, after nerf after nerf has been placed on others? A dev saying essentially "yes it isn't fair, but no one claimed locks are anything but a powerful solo class..." (well no one ever claimed hunters should be anything other then a powerful solo class, with all the same ramifications that devs statements would place in the argument either), "so game balance
doesn't apply here
. It's the making of a double standard.
Either the whole argument of game balance applies to all equally and in same measure, or it's a wash and something else. Very much that dev comes off favoring locks, and not other classes who stood at the crossroads of the nerf discussions hitherto. Yes, I've had more then a few laughs discussing that dev's statement with some other hunters.
Either game balance applies to all, or it should be applied to none. The whole argument can not hold as reason and justification to alter the game, unless it is applied to all, in an objective and impartial manner. Locks needing fear? Hunters need to be at range, which means either a pet that can't simply be ignored or a melee class to partner with who forces them to focus elsewhere. Take that away, and their practically useless, which is why the "gank them" tactic is so successful in shutting them down. But unlike a lock, they can't just fear targets off repeatadly, to regain range. Anything short of applying the idea of game balance in an equitable fashion, which favors no class; makes Blizzard look biased in favor of some, over others.
Whatever is done with this class, or any other though, unless it is applied in equal measure, accross the board, and impartially, at that time it ceases to look like "balance" is the real goal in said nerfs, and it begins to look like something very different. It is that, and that in the whole tone and demeanor of what that dev says, and his reasoning behind decisions made that, that really bothers me. Something simply can not be balanced by definition, if the concept isn't applied
to all
, but is rather only selectively applied to some, at the exclusion of others.

Annia Galeria Faustina was born into an aristocratic Roman senatorial family of Spanish descent. Her father and one brother achieved the rank of Consul; her other brother, Marcus Annius Verus, became Praetor and was father to the future Emperor Marcus Aurelius. Her maternal uncle was the Emperor Hadrian. In about AD 115, she married Titus Fulvius Antoninus, a respected Senator, and through her connections he became a close advisor to Hadrian. When Hadrian's intended successor, Aelius Caesar, died early in AD 138, the ailing emperor settled on the 52-year-old Antoninus as his replacement. Antoninus succeeded to the throne later that year and Faustina was acclaimed as Augusta, or Empress. Antoninus honored her extensively on the coinage and her vivacity, fashion sense and compassion for the poor made her very popular. Her distinctive hairstyle, with a plait wrapped in a tight coil atop her head, was copied by women throughout the Empire. While the staid Roman historians of later eras criticized her lack of "gravitas," Antoninus was devoted to her. The couple had four children, two sons and two daughters; both male children died in infancy, but the daughters lived to adulthood and one, Faustina the Younger, married Marcus Aurelius and became Augusta herself. Only two years into Antoninus' reign, Faustina died of an unknown illness. The grief-stricken Antoninus secured her deification and issued an immense coinage in her name, the largest for any Roman woman to that point. This magnificent aureus falls into the posthumous series.
