Product Reviews
South Brockton Frsqre Church5 Stars Out Of 5February 12, 2009South Brockton Frsqre ChurchThis book should be in any Pastor yearly reading list. It refreshs one knowledge in thorough interpretation of scriptures and contemporary application.
Steve Duby5 Stars Out Of 5July 4, 2008Steve DubyThis is a learned and thorough prescription for how Christians ought to approach Scripture. The authors are sensitive to pertinent issues in philosophy of language as well as the practical needs of Christian interpreters. There are strong insights on everything from the role of presuppositions in hermeneutics to the peculiar features of various biblical genres. I strongly recommend this book to anyone interested in becoming a better exegete and/or defending the possibility of hearing from the God who speaks in the biblical text.

The flu hasn't loosened its grip on Taylor County just yet.
Though attendance rates are back up at local schools, they are not as strong as school officials had hoped.
Campbellsville Independent recorded a 93 percent attendance rate Monday, while Taylor County saw a 93.4 percent attendance rate.
"We are really 4 percent down from where we normally run," said Taylor County Superintentendent Roger Cook. "As long as we don't drop below 88 percent it's not costing us money."
A New Haven man was injured Saturday after he struck a tree with his vehicle.
According to a Taylor County Sheriff's Office report, Floyd L. Vittitow, 73, of 1510 Monks Road was traveling east on KY 70 at about 1:30 p.m. in a green 1985 Buick.
The report states that Vittitow ran off the right shoulder of the road and struck a tree.
He was flown to University of Louisville Hospital by Air Evac personnel and, according to the report, was listed in serious condition at the time of the collision.
He remained in serious condition as of Tuesday morning.
Kentucky State Police are seeking the public's help in finding the man who robbed a Monroe County bank on Jan. 6.
KSP have provided a photo of the suspect and are asking for help identifying the man. The photo is from a robbery that occurred at Hermitage Springs Bank in Tennessee. Police believe the same man robbed South Central Bank of Gamaliel in Monroe County.
Those who have any information should contact the Kentucky State Police at (800) 222-5555 or (270) 384-4796.
Grayson County Rural Electric Cooperative is organizing a petition for a license plate honoring the work of Kentucky's linemen.
In order to have the plate produced, Grayson RECC must collect 900 signatures with 900 paid orders. The plate costs $25.
In addition, $5 of each order will be donated to Kentucky's three Kentucky and Technical College System linemen schools, which are located in Ashland, Florence and Somerset.
A Campbellsville man accused of sexually abusing two young children has been sentenced to serve a year in jail and register as a sex offender for 20 years.
In January 2008, Darrin Leonard Watson, 44, of 209 McNary St. was indicted on two counts of first-degree sodomy and two counts of first-degree sex abuse.
In June 2009, Watson pleaded guilty to two counts of first-degree wanton endangerment and two counts of second-degree sex abuse before Taylor Circuit Court Judge Allan Bertram.
It appears that the new street beside the Taylor County Judicial Center will be one way after all.
At Tuesday's regular Fiscal Court meeting, magistrates voted to keep the street as a County road and have its employees maintain it.
They also agreed that parking spaces will be created on the right side of the street and the entire length of the street will become one way with drivers accessing it from Main Street.
It's been one year since the first alcoholic beverage was served at a Campbellsville restaurant following the moist vote. And from the standpoint of City revenue and alcohol-related crime, little has changed.
Last May, voters living within the City approved the sale of alcohol in restaurants seating at least 50 people as long as the drinks are served in conjunction with a meal. Restaurants must derive at least 70 percent of their income from the sale of food.
The measure passed by 74 votes.
The 43rd season of the Central Kentucky Arts Series got off to a high flying start Thursday as the Golden Dragon Acrobats entertained a packed house at Campbellsville University's J.K. Powell Athletic Center.
Hailing from the Hebei province in the People's Republic of China, the 25-member Golden Acrobats have toured the United States continuously since 1978, performing in all 50 states and in more than 65 counties.
The performance includes jugglers, contortionists, a ladder act and other acrobatic feats.
Next up on the Arts Series roster is a puppet show.
State Auditor Crit Luallen recently released the annual audit of the 2008 financial statement of Taylor County Sheriff John Shipp's office.
State law requires two audits of each county's sheriff's office, one on the sheriff's tax account and the other on the fee account used to operate the office.
The audit found Shipp's financial statement fairly represented the revenues, expenditures and excess fees for the period ending Dec. 31, 2008. The statement was also found to conform with the modified cash basis of accounting.
The Taylor County Judicial Center officially opens to the public today.
Taylor Circuit Clerk Rodney Burress and his office staff moved from the Taylor County Courthouse to the new judicial center building last week.
All other offices will remain at the Taylor County Courthouse.
On Friday, Burress said the move is going well, though he and his staff weren't ready to open for their monthly Saturday hours as they had planned.

To our article "Deconstructing the contractor compensation debate," a reader commented: How can this be a democratic government when we have corrupt policies like this giving top executives money so they can keep doing business with the government. We are no better than the next guy down the road. You know, you get paid for the work you do and if you do not do it then that is it, go somewhere else to get that money. ... You would have some of the small companies be able to compete if they would stop giving away money to corporations. ... Think of the billions of dollars they would save if they would quit giving these top executives money. Someone's is in somebody's back pocket, think about it.
Mark Rockwell responds: It has to be difficult for agencies to find the right balance here, enough reimbursement to keep companies interested in the federal market, but not so much that it turns into a corporate giveaway. This issue feels akin to the difficulties federal agencies encounter in adopting public company management practices to operate in a more business-savvy way. While some of those practices--like making inspirational videos, or hosting expensive events—may not raise executive eyebrows at some private-sector companies, the same things can result in congressional hearings, resignations or even indictments if federal agencies indulge in them. Practical business management habits and practices common inside corporations, like cost-savings programs and more efficient bulk buying platforms, that have been embraced by federal agencies obviously aren't as controversial.
The public should demand its tax dollars be spent well and it rightly abhors excesses. It also wants federal agencies to be more business-savvy and nimble enough to get good deals on the best services from the most able suppliers. The intersection of all those things is not an easy target to hit.

Series: Reading God's Two Books: Early American Perspectives (6 entries)
American thinking about religion and science before the Civil War was substantially informed by the powerful "concordist" metaphor of God as the "author" of two "books," nature and Scripture, which ultimately must agree.
From the Archives: Evolution as a Scientific Theory
In common English usage, "theory" means something like "guess" or "hunch". In science, however, a theory is an idea that has stood the test of time.
What does the fossil record show?
Though the fossil record does not include every plant and animal that ever lived, it provides substantial evidence for the common descent of life via evolution. The fossil record is a remarkable gift for the study of nature.
What is Evolution?
The word evolution can be used in many ways, but in biology, it means descent with modification. In other words, small modifications occur at the genetic level (i.e. in DNA) when a new generation descends from its parents. Over many generations these modifications can result in significant differences from the ancestral population.
What is the genetic evidence for human evolution?
The more research that is done on DNA, the more evidence we find that all life is related.
The Changing Face of Evolutionary Theory?
Is evolution driven mainly by random genetic variation, or are there other factors at play? Michael Burdett reviews the scientific debate.

Faith and Science in France and Spain: An Interview with Antoine Bret
When non-believers in France or in Spain read what young-earth creationists are writing about evolution, geology, or astrophysics, they frequently conclude that the Bible is at best an interesting fairy tale.
Saturday Science Links: December 6, 2014
Many of this week's science links happen at the wondrous intersection of mystery and discovery.
An Ancient and Dynamic Universe
While reading about and studying the processes that gave rise to this astonishing world, please don't forget that it is beautiful. It is not merely mechanics, but poetry.
The Genesis Rock
The story of the Genesis Rock reminds us of how biblical and scientific accounts, despite their different purviews and purposes, remain inexorably linked in our understanding of origins.
BioLogos Basics Video #5: How Old Is the Earth?
At BioLogos, we believe that a serious and faithful reading of Scripture doesn't call for a recent origin to the earth, and we are persuaded that God has shown us through the natural world he created that his creative work began much earlier.
Series: Evolution Basics (50 entries)
Written by BioLogos Fellow of Biology Dennis Venema, this series of posts is intended as a basic introduction to the science of evolution for non-specialists.
Faith after Literalism: An Interview with Michael Gungor
Musician Michael Gungor talks about the recent controversy over the evolution of his views on evolution, science, and biblical authority.
What Do the Arts Have to Do with Evangelism?
The purpose of Jesus's art was to give verbal, visual, and dramatic forms to those complicated and confounding relationships, symmetries, and harmonies between himself, the father and spirit, and between the triune God and the world… Such creative expressions did not and do not make everything clear, but rather resist simple clarity, forcing their hearers to come at the whole complicated truth from a position of intellectual and spiritual humility.
No Place Like Home: An interview with ECF grantee Seung-Hwan Kim
Everyone is so worried about success and getting this or that honorable diploma—the people here are smart and understand many complex things perfectly—but it's a long distance from the head to the heart.
Creation for Kids
Children's books are more than stories. They can become familiar narratives children listen to over and over. So it's worth asking - Are the books we're reading doing a good job of portraying God and His Creation?

Great product, will buy again!
Heather from Orem, UT – Verified Buyer
I was looking for an affordable alternative to the name brand shelves that run in the $250-$300 range, but that would still hold up in the classroom. I purchased two of these shelves originally, and then ordered an additional three because they worked so well in the classroom. They were relatively easy to assemble, look great, and are secure enough to hold up to commercial use. Would definitely recommend and will probably buy the product again in the future!
Pretty, sturdy toddler bookcase that is super easy to assemble
Chelsea from Austin, TX – Verified Buyer
I loved the look, weight, and size of this shelf. My 12 month old uses it daily. I have assembled ALOT of kid furniture, baby gates, etc. in the past year and I think this was the most straightforward and least painful piece I've encountered. All the holes and screws are exactly the same and it took me about 10-15 mins. Highly recommend it. Pros: Look, ease of assembly, weight, durability

Dear Wayne and Wanda,
For a few months now, I've been hanging out with a guy I've known for a long time through mutual friends. It started one night after we'd been at the bars together and since then it has become a recurring thing. He has said he wants to keep things casual, friends with benefits.
No one really knows that we are spending time together. For the first couple months that was OK with me, but the more time we spend together, the more it feels like a relationship. I think I'm ready for it to be more than a "friends with benefits" situation.
He has said he likes how laid back things are with us. I don't know what to do. Do I keep doing what we're doing and just enjoy whatever time we get to spend together? Or do I ask for more and risk pushing him away?
-- Confused
Wanda says,
This potentially plays out a few ways.
Option one: Keep on doing what you're doing, and continue to do it with no strings attached. Why not? Clearly you enjoy his occasional companionship -- and he, yours. Accept that he's sincere about not wanting anything serious and roll with it. There's plenty to like about casual encounters. As a union or mutual convenience, you're released from many of the stifling conventions that sink serious relationships. You still have your freedom. Since the relationship is on the quiet, you don't have to worry about meddling friends armchair psychoanalyzing the whole thing.
Option two: Tell him you want more. This will illicit one of two responses. Possibly, he is overjoyed, and responds with a super-excited, "Me too!" He is totally relieved you brought it up first because he was so scared of pushing you away.
Not likely.
I predict the other response: Mr. Man balks, then says something like, "But what's wrong with what we're doing?" If he wanted to be serious with you, stroll the streets hand-in-hand, meet for lunch and cook meals together and go to the movies, he would have realized it by now.
Let's be real -- wouldn't you have realized it too? You say in your letter you "think" you want more from him. Even you aren't sure. After three months of casual encounters, if you're still iffy, therein lies your answer. I predict you are ready for a relationship with someone. But it's not this guy.
Wayne says,
Wanda is wise, but -- gasp -- she doesn't know everything. One area of study she comes up short is in regards to the male brain. She's giving this dude, and most of us men, waaaay too much credit in assuming that if he was serious about this girl, he would have stepped up and made it official.
Not likely.
Wanda and women everywhere, let me fill you in on a little Relationships With Men 101: Men are typically only as serious about a woman as that woman makes him be. Up until now, both parties in this affair have rolled along with the FWB agreement. Both parties -- not just him.
Why on earth would any man rock that boat? It's perfect situation -- a good friend with complimentary no-strings-attached sex? Sign me up! And while you daydream at your desk and sulk about him with your girlfriends, he's going about his awesome life figuring he's exactly where you want him to be.
Sure, if you mention a serious relationship, he may balk. He may even run away as fast as he can. He may also commit. He may even propose to you at that moment and race with you to Paris to get hitched. Thing is, you'll never know until you bring it up. Until then, he's going to continue enjoying the life of relationship leisure: friendship and sex without any of that exhausting couples work.
• Wanda is a wise woman who has loved, lusted and believes in retail therapy. Wayne is a wise guy who has no use for therapy. Send them your questions and thoughts at email@example.com.

Sean Lee: Penn State Scandal Should Have Been Handled Differently
Dallas Cowboys linebacker Sean Lee is the next big thing in the NFL. He's arguably the best player on the Cowboys' roster and he's an outstanding young man on and off the field. However, a mark on his resume has been tarnished as the Jerry Sandusky scandal at Penn State seems to get worse every day. Lee played his college football at Penn State from 2005-2009 under Joe Paterno, whose statue in front of Beaver Stadium was taken down on Sunday. The Nittany Lions' victories since 1998 have been vacated, including those accumulated while Lee played. On Monday, Lee spoke to the media while appearing at a Boys and Girls Club charity event.
"Obviously I don't support the actions of how they handled that situation at all," Lee said. "The facts have shown they didn't report Sandusky and what happened and because of it more kids got hurt. That's what the facts show and I don't agree with that at all. This should've been reported right away. There should've been procedures in place where this is what we do, investigation and go from there and more kids wouldn't have been hurt. I actually think the Freeh Report was a good thing because it shows where Penn State can go, how they can improve on some things so something as horrible as it did will never happen again."
Spoken like a true professional. Other past players from Penn State, including NFL Hall of Famers, have basically excused their alma mater for the scandal because of what the football team has accomplished on the field. Not Lee. He has more class than that. He doesn't care about the statue being taken down.
"It's a statue," Lee said. "They keep it up, they pull it down; that's not what I feel the issue is. What I feel the issue is, is to make sure the healing process for these victims is taken care of. Now if taking the statue down helps with the healing process, then so be it."
Lee also doesn't care about the vacated wins.
"There's obviously the memories that you have, so that was done for whatever reason but as a teammate and former player you realize what you did as a team and what accomplished," Lee said. "Your memories will always be there so that's not what bothers me."
The Cowboys have been accused of lacking a leader on the field, primarily on defense. Lee's final statements regarding the Penn State scandal pretty much sum up the fact he's already accepted that role with Dallas.
"Like I said, supporting Penn State going forward does not mean you support the actions of what happened up there," Lee said. "There are a lot of good people that want to…impact the community in a good way. They want to support the team. They want to bring the positive about this horrible negative that happened up there."
Perhaps Lee can help the Cowboys' defense overcome the past two horrible seasons it's endured.

About Time: Cosmology and Culture at the Twilight of the Big Bangby Adam Frank
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
andlt;Bandgt;The Big Bang is all but dead, and we do not yet know what will replace it. andlt;/Bandgt;Our universeand#8217;s and#8220;beginningand#8221; is at an end. What does this have to do with us here on Earth? Our lives are about to be dramatically shaken againand#8212;as altered as they were with the invention of the clock, the steam engine, the railroad, the radio and the Internet. andlt;BRandgt;andlt;BRandgt;In andlt;Iandgt;The End of the Beginningandlt;/Iandgt;, Adam Frank explains how the texture of our lives changes along with our understanding of the universeand#8217;s origin. Since we awoke to self-consciousness fifty thousand years ago, our lived experience of timeand#8212;from hunting and gathering to the development of agriculture to the industrial revolution to the invention of Outlook calendarsand#8212;has been transformed and rebuilt many times. But the latest theories in cosmologyand#8212; time with no beginning, parallel universes, eternal inflationand#8212;are about to send us in a new direction. andlt;BRandgt;andlt;BRandgt;Time is both our grandest and most intimate conception of the universe. Many books tell the story, recounting the progress of scientific cosmology. Frank tells the story of humanityand#8217;s deepest questionand#8212; when and how did everything begin?and#8212;alongside the story of how human beings have experienced time. He looks at the way our engagement with the worldand#8212; our inventions, our habits and moreand#8212;has allowed us to discover the nature of the universe and how those discoveries, in turn, inform our daily experience. andlt;BRandgt;andlt;BRandgt;This astounding book will change the way we think about time and how it affects our lives.
Astrophysicist Adam Frank tells the story of time—how our experience of it and the science behind it have changed over the centuries, and how it's all about to change again.
Time is both the grandest conception of the universe we human beings have been able to imagine and explore and the most intimate—the very frame of human life. A Paleolithic farmer moved through his day in a radically different way than did a merchant living in the great city of Babylon. Denizens of the Renaissance managed their lives quite differently when clocks were first introduced to town squares and time became a precise, shared experience. With the industrial revolution an entirely new level of precision and standardization began to dominate culture and a new politics followed in its footsteps. As the last century began the electrified world gave birth to yet another form of time that is the beginning of our own wireless world. Then with the dawn of the space age and the digital revolution we made our most recent jump, toward becoming slaves to the Outlook Calendar, living breathlessly in fifteen minute increments.
Weaving cosmology into our day-to-day experience with his lively wit and down-to-earth style, Frank combines the cosmological with the personal, explaining how our lives change along with our ideas of time and how we now find ourselves at the beginning of a new phase.
The Big Bang is dead and astrophysicist Adam Frank explains how our experience of time will change as a result.

Not Worth It12/2/2011
Had this thing for about 6 months before it decided to die. We had a tech restore it back to factory and its performance was even worse than when we'd 1st received it. Now, it sits on the floor gathering dust... Yes, that's all it's worth!
Great while it lasted10/4/2010
I purchased this for my son to do his schoolwork on, and he was very pleased with it for the month that we've had it, but it will no longer connect to the internet. I think it needs a new internet adapter, however, I have to send it into the manufacturer for repair. What a pain. Now at least two weeks of waiting while he has to use my computer. Does anything work like it should? Pros: small, fast, easy to use. Cons: no disc drive, no System Restore software installed, broke after a month.
Pros: It's pretty much handy and because of it's light weight you can move it around very easily. Performance is pretty decent. Boot up and shut down speed is excellent. Enough USB ports. Battery life is very impressive for regular web browsing. Cons: The small screen size makes web browsing and watching pictures and videos a bit uncomfortable. Sometimes you have to use scroll bars to watch the full picture. No DVD drive/burner. But that is another reason for it's light weight. For installing additional software you have to external DVD drive. But I don't think of this as an issue.
Performance in a small package!8/29/2010
Bought this little beauty for overseas trip and am finding it great! The keyboard is close to full-size, plenty of USB ports, and the touchpad is responsive with no glitches. Power cords include velcro straps, so no tangling. Weighs so much less than laptop, yet does almost everything the big boys can. Only downsides - no CD/DVD drive (but found external DVDwriter specifically for this Asus EEE at buy.com for good price), and the screen is very shiny, so shows smudges and sometimes must adjust to reduce glare from lighting.

Season 2, Episode 126 of The Terrible Podcast is up and co-host David Todd and I start off by explaining how we are not playing up to the standard today after I lost the rerecording of our Tuesday morning interview with Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal. We had a great talk with Nate concerning the Cleveland Browns as they head into training camp, but unfortunately the file went bye bye. Have no fear though as David is scheduled to have Nate on ESPN 970 on Wednesday afternoon and he will ask a lot of the same questions we had for Nate today. I will add that interview to the end of this podcast Read more [...]

RIPE Series in Global Political Economy
For almost two decades now, the RIPE Series published by Routledge has been an essential forum for cutting-edge scholarship in International Political Economy. The series brings together new and established scholars working in critical, cultural and constructivist political economy. Books in the RIPE Series typically combine an innovative contribution to theoretical debates with rigorous empirical analysis.
The RIPE Series seeks to cultivate:
- Field-defining theoretical advances in International Political Economy
- Novel treatments of key issue areas, both historical and contemporary, such as global finance, trade, and production
- Analyses that explore the political economic dimensions of relatively neglected topics, such as the environment, gender relations, and migration
- Accessible work that will inspire advanced undergraduates and graduate students in International Political Economy.

110 Sports Podcast: Mike Leach
NOV 14, 2012 8:28a ET
Mike Leach, Washington State's head football coach, talks with Matt this week about what has been a challenging first season as head coach. They discuss the idea of trying to change the losing culture; his players' low expectations of themselves; and why the future looks bright. Plus, he talks about his recent ban of Twitter, his impressions of the Pac-12 conference, and a thought on playing ASU this weekend.
Among his observations:
On changing the mind-set of his team: "Sometimes you have guys that have been here how ever many years and there's a certain way of life and point of view that they may not be willing to change, and so then I think the important thing is to work toward the future."
Impression of Pac-12 football: "Of the conferences in the country, it's the most diverse geographically and as far as coaching and style of play."
Thoughts on ASU football: "Real explosive. Their skilled guys are fast, quick and are an impressive group."

Updated 04/09/2014
While it may not actually be in the rain forest, this small inn at the end of a residential street is a great get-away-from-it-all place that still puts you close enough to the action. Bright cheery rooms each employ a different Costa Rican theme using artistic accents supplied by a frequent guest. (His wares also populate a small on-site gift shop.) For a bit more privacy, two larger rooms are removed from the main house and front the adjoining patio. That plant-filled patio makes a wonderful place to return at the end of the day—or it may tempt you to linger after the ample breakfast served here—with birds fluttering and even a family of resident iguanas in the trees. (The latter stay outside the patio area.) A pleasant sitting room, and, of course, accommodating owners round out the offerings.
