Historical Traveler Reviews Portmarnock Hotel and Golf Links
We found the Portmarnock Hotel to be above average in almost all aspects of catering to the world traveler. The room was clean, comfortable, well furnished and roomy. The bathroom was spotless and roomy as well. Our view was as beautiful as promised and all the amenities were also as promised. The coffee left a lot to be desired, as does most hotel in-room coffee! Breakfasts each morning were the same, but always very good. We found the staff to be very helpful and very polite. We felt very much at home there and would recommend the Portmarnock to all. We will absolutely go back again!
Great hotel
Wonderful hotel--good location, nice room, friendly staff, beautiful views, and close to Dublin. Fitness room was small but functional with an adequate selection of cardio machines and a few free weights. Left early so missed the continental breakfast that was included in the price. Free parking included.
We had our wedding here
And it was fantastic. Of course, the bridal suite is going to be amazing, but apparently the normal rooms were great too.
Staff were super, hotel is big, open, amazing sea views and great golf. There's a lot of golfers staying here, so if you are in any way anti-golf it may not suit you!
Food is great too; the Osbourne restaurant downstairs is one of the best. Gourmet food, dressy and expensive, but worth it.
All in all, I'd recommend it. Its miles out of the city and you'll need to get a taxi into Dublin, but the location itself is lovely. Malahide, a quaint and very desireable-to-live-in village is a few miles up the road with a good selection of restaurants, cafes, and bars. Again, a taxi ride, and taxis in Dublin are expensive. It might cost you about a tenner to go around 2 or 3 miles.
Gorgeous hotel
Stayed at the Portmarnock Hotel & Golf Links for just one night on 11th December for a Christmas Party. It is located half way between Portmarnock & Malahide around 11 miles from the centre of Dublin. The hotel oozes class, and is very tasefully decorated indeed. The rooms are very comfortable, and everything you would care to need is provided. The staff are very helpful & attentive, and the food we had was top class; plentiful, hot & tasty. I would have loved to stay for longer, and will probably go back here next year. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this hotel to anyone. If anyone needs any information, don't hesitate to e-mail me.
Highly recommended
Only used this hotel because the Grand in Malahide was full. Lucky break - much superior to the Grand in terms both of accommodation and food. Would now use this hotel as a base when travelling into Dublin. Would recommend it to anyone
Top class luxury hotel!
Very comfortable golfing hotel, wonderful location on the beach. (Frankly Dublin is just far too busy!). Excellent service/food/room/location etc. Recommended!
Close to Dublin yet so far away!
Portmarnock Hotel is only 25 minutes from Dublin by car and 15 minutes to the airport but you are in a lovely small village overlooking the Irish Sea. A true 4 star hotel with outstanding service. The staff is so polite. There are standard rooms as well as superior seaview rooms. We had the seaview room and it was wonderful to look out at the strand and the sea. If you like to golf or walk on the beach, this is the place. Portmarnock is situated between the village of Howth (great seafood restaurant Aqua) and Malahide (good shops and restaurants). The Jameson bar is interesting because the locals inhabit a section of it and you are welcome to join them but they wouldn't dream of joining you. Interesting. Think of this place when going to Dublin if you are looking for outdoor activity and peace and quiet.
Great place - wonderful views over beach and great walks - plus links golk
Portmarnock is only a short journey from where I live but the journey to the Portmarnock Hotel & Golf Club was well-made. Hotel is very comfortable - only missing a pool. Direct access to the wonderful Portmarnock Strand - great beach and walks. Golf course is of highest standard. Good deals available on expedia and laterooms. Whether you live in Dublin Ohio or Dublin Ireland, this hotel should rate highly on places to visit for a relaxing vacation.
Nothing is overlooked except for the sea
We have just come back from a stay at the Portmarnock Hotel and cannot recommend it enough. From the fantastic setting overlooking the sea, the gorgeous mini suite that we stayed in, the food, value for money and relaxation from golf or spa depending on your taste; we could not have asked for better. Only a 20 minute trip on the Dart into the rigours of Dublin yet it felt like a million miles. Definitely planning return trips.
Highly Recommended - then some
We went here for 4 days in early March, so got a fantastic (Expedia) rate (booked 6 weeks in advance) of approx. £30 (40 Euros) pppnight, inc. great silver-service / ivory table linen / breakfast cooked to order. Our bedroom had large, curved windows with golf course view and distant sea view. Brilliant. Walk to the long, sandy, clean beach ('strand') in 3 minutes. Could not fault anything. Meal service good and unobtrusive. Food very good. Could not afford the AA 3-star rosette restaurant food, but got a great 3-course meal for 20 Euros (before 7pm, and offer ends late March!). Gnochhi or soup starter, beef tournedos and red onion mash or chicken wrapped in Parma ham mains, mixed ice cream in brandy snap basket or Baileys cheesecake dessert are typical. Choice changes weekly. Beat that for 20 Euros. Cheapest wine about 20 Euros for 75cl(South African house white was not that brilliant.) But we could have splashed out 1000 Euros (yes, one thousand) on some 1896 (yes 1896) red stuff. Decided not to. Had a fantastic break, and only tempted into Dublin once, and the nearby (one-hour walk) Malahide twice. Bus links to Malahide and Dublin are pretty good, and last buses don't seem to leave early! Malahide has some nice, typical pubs. VEry busy at weeked. Pub food is fine but hotel food better!Bus - about 1.5 Euros single - seems cheaper mid-daytime. Bus to Dublin takes 50 mins, depending on route, so is a bit of a pain. And very bumpy. (We did not want to drink and drive, so flew over, booking well in advance and on-line with Aer Lingus for about 75 euros return, each. Also a bargain!) Taxi airport to hotel 20-21 Euros = £15 - a bit steep for 6 or 7 miles. But the bus goes into Dublin and out again, so is not worth it, according to the TIC. Did not try Cruzzo restaurant in Malahide (see other review), as is not open all day, and hotel menu was cheaper and more interesting for the 'tourist' menu. Would highly recommend this Portmarnocj Hotel and Golf Links to anyone - after reading reviews about noisy city centre hotels, I'd prefer on balance to stay a little out of town. And cannot think of a better place. (I'm not the hotel owner, by the way.) Hope this helps - not enough reviews around on this hotel !

A Day in Dublin
We were all sorry to say goodbye to Italy this morning. We travelled by water taxi to Marco Polo Airport and booked in for our flight to Dublin on Aer Lingus. It was one of the few times I actually stared out of the window during take off as I didn't want to miss the last lovely view of Venice. It was a beautiful sight, quite spectacular to see the …
... went into a lovely church, and eventuallyed ended up at the Collins Barracks near Phoenix park- it has all old irish furniture and jewels and kinda boring stuff, but! it did have airplanes hanging from the ceilin and tanks, and even the clothes that Michael Collins was killed in, so if anything it was worth it for THAT so kinda cool. I then walked around the corner,ish to Arbor Hill Cemetary where the rest of the 1916 guys were buried, and there was a nice memorial, and a cool ...

Today we flew out of Dublin and headed for London. Woke up at 4:15 this morning to make sure I had everything packed and ready to go for the airport. For breakfast, the hostel provided us with a box breakfast to eat. We all boarded the charter bus to head to the airport. It was very smooth going through the airport and getting through security. We boarded the flight and it was a lot bumpier flight than the first one. It only took an hour and a half to arrive in London. We met Craig at ...
Last Day in Dublin
... my first visit to this city. We stopped for lunch in the busy shopping area just north of the hotel at a place called Bewley's. We got to sit upstairs, where it was slightly quieter, but you could still hear the street musicians outside the cafe playing. They were quite talented.
After lunch, we waked through the temple bar district on the way to the old Jameson's distillery. The distillery was crowded and the next two tours were almost full, so ...

Hey guys excuse me, but do you want to do a show with me on November 17th? Thursday? ? It's at the Faire Gallery cafe, and bar. Love to have you. Please reply back thanks.
love the homegrown sounds of the Pacific Northwest. Great stuff.
Here are the lyrics to our newest song, "The Well," which is now up on our ReverbNation player. We're in the process of auditioning a new female voice and keyboard player to broaden the sound, sort of like a Jefferson Airplane feel. If you'd like to be considered, please drop us a line and provide a link or two to your music. Thanks for stopping by, AMBIII
The Well
The winds howled with change, in the year that I was born
We learned to hide under our desks at school, awaiting the storm.
History pierced our side, as we watched our president die
The lies raged on from the White House lawn, right before our eyes.
First Chorus:
The well runs deep for those who seek, the clear water in the past
Within its depths, an ageless blessing, the sense of life everlasting.
The well rises high with the tears we've cried, the endless rain of pain.
Take this cup as David rose up, anointed and unafraid – drink from the well of faith.
Our thirst was vast and wide, we flew to outer space
We began to rock, refusing to stop, time became ageless
I hitchhiked from Monterey, wildflowers in my hair
Living to love in a time of war, tripping to become aware.
The well runs deep for those who reap the fertile seeds on the path.
Within its depths, a timeless test, the taste of life everlasting
The well rises high, at one with the tide in an effortless, rolling wave
Take this cup and rise above, anointed and unafraid – bathe in the well of fate.
The storm moved in from the south, as a coyote crossed our path.
Blood in its teeth, eyes of ice, there was no turning back.
The rock was smooth and sharp, cradled in my hand.
I let it fly, with a piercing cry, as God would guide my wrath.
The well is clear for those who hear, the pure music of their soul
Drop by drop, it will never stop, with a constant and even flow.
Take this cup as it is offered up from the fragile glass of days.
It is here you'll find water turned to wine, and drink to your rightful place . . .
At the well of saving grace.
The lightning split the night and charged the well of life
The sky turned red, the coyote lay dead, struck down in full stride.
The well runs deep for those who seek, the clear water of the past
Within its depths, an ageless breath, answers without asking.
Take this cup as it is offered up – at the end of all your days.
It is here you'll find blood turned to wine, and rise to your rightful place . . .
At the well of saving grace.
I drank to the change of fate, to the relentless truth of time
I drank until I could drink no more, at the well that never runs dry.
Thanks so much for the kind words. It was great listening to your stuff! Hope 2010 is YOUR year! Well, and my year too. Let's share it!
Thank you for your support! Here is to a joint success in 2010!

While I understand that the Constitution of the United States of America defends religious freedom for all, yet more importantly, as a Christian I believe that true "soul freedom" is found only in the Lord Jesus Christ.
The debate on inerrancy was over "What the Bible Is." The debate over Calvinism is a debate over "What the Bible Says" — a question of interpretation rather than a debate over basic world view.
…why would one assume that God's grace and power given to the apostles to reveal the MYSTERY OF CHRIST isn't sufficiently understandable or believable?
Historically, it was indeed the case that vacancies in Southern Baptist leadership would be filled from among a pool of candidates who were already Southern Baptists on the day they were hired.
…the natural man who deems the things of the Spirit foolish do so by their own free moral choice, not by compatibilistic compulsion imposed by Calvinistic philosophy

Grants to help on disaster prepJanuary 09,2013
WATERBURY — The state is again accepting grant applications for funding for cities, towns and certain nonprofits to help prevent future damage caused by natural disasters.
The money comes from the federal Hazard Mitigation Grant Program to help municipalities fix public infrastructure, buy out homes and businesses, and carry out other projects designed to minimize or prevent damage in floods and other natural disasters.
Eligible projects could include flood-proofing; raising or relocating public buildings; culvert replacement and repairs to drainage systems in areas that frequently flood; and buyouts of private properties and businesses in flood-prone areas.
Communities must submit a letter of intent to apply for funding to the Vermont Division of Emergency Management and Homeland Security by Jan. 18. Completed applications are due by Feb. 1. Applications are available at the division's website at www.vem.vermont.gov/mitigation, or by contacting the state hazard mitigation officer toll-free at 800-347-0488 or email@example.com.
The grant program covers 75 percent of approved project costs with a 25 percent local match from the applicant. The program is funded through the Federal Emergency Management Agency.

Monsoon season has started here in Arizona so my flying time has been pretty badly curtailed. I did manage to put an inagural flip on the V200 over the weekend, nice and uneventful, just how I like em
I'm also about half way through banging together a t-Rex 250 DFC super combo. If I can't fly in the rain I can at least indulge my OCD/DIY side. I just wish that walkera could make an RX802 mini...a couple mm here and there and I could get the RX inside the frame for the wiring job I wish I could have. Instead I'm going to have to strap it to the side. At this point it's still a frankencopter with all it's wiring hanging out and the frame all taken apart. I also can't believe what a PITA it is to find green threadlocker for the pinion. At this point I'm really pretty optimistic that it won't just shed parts the first time I get it in the air I should have bought loctite stock.
It looks like Tovin would be the best to readily answer your question. When I get my servos, I will layout the servos on the bench and wire them up to see if any reversing is need when using the 2612 receiver, of which I still happen to have.
I received my Futaba S3154 replacement servo today. I have to say, Futaba Hobby Services is top notch.
I had sent this servo in the mail USPS First Class on July 2 and today is July 16. Not bad.
I am back in business...
Damn it.
Whish I found this before. I just found a site that ships EMAX ES08MD servos out of Arizona. Here is the link: http://www.bmkdesigns.net/emax-es08md-servo.html
Price $12.95 each.
And another one. Damn it again. This site ships out of Ohio.
EMAX ES08MD Servo (strange - the image is for the ES08A analog servo)
Price $10.99 each
BTW, does or will the 250 canopy fit the 4f200/v200? It looks damn close to the same size and shape.
A side note about Analog vs Digital on this helicopter:
I'm pretty sure that these RX all use digital signal to the servos. I'm pretty damn sure the cyclic are digital and i'm positive that the tail servo is digital. If that is the case then the RX frame rate is 333hz (digital). If you try to use an analog servo that is expecting an analog frame rate of 50gz-70hz or something like that. Well the servo is going to be over worked and it's life span will become unpredictable. I remember someone here saying they installed Futaba 3114 servos which are analog and ended up frying 2 of them during installation. This is likely the reason. Though, without knowing 100% for sure if the RX is really digital. It's pure speculation at this point.
I received my 6 Savox 0257MG servos today too. They probably can have the tabs ground down to make them fit the 4f200 frame. However the protruding gear sticks out farther then stock and may not line up the linkages very well. Longer ball linkages might be able to be used to bring it back to stock geometry. I will be looking more into it later. But i'm pretty sure i don't want to install these Savox servos in the 4f200. I plan on building a 2nd v450 from parts in my box. If these emax servos work out at all comparable to stock. Well for the price, how can you go wrong?

I install the Emax 08MA servo, its not digital but it does flies better than before.
No problem found using with RX2612 receiver, although it is not digital servo.
The torque is really good on 4F200, u will noticed the cyclic change is faster than 766 as higer torque change in servo.
Although 766 servo is stated digital with less than 0.1sec speed, but the cyclic control is not strong enough for rapid change during high rotation speed force fom rotor blades.
The ES08D will be a better choice for digital servo.
But I got a strange mix feelings with EMAX servo installed on other 450 & 250 clones heli.
It is still not the best servo used for 450 heli, but it is treally good on 4F200.
I will keep it on 4F200 & my new order of RX2618 is comming.
The signal coming out of the RX2612V and RX2618V is a PWM digital signal. The only speculation that remains is the signal coming out of the receiver is sent at a rate of 50 times per second (50hz). Both the Futaba S3114 and Futaba S3154 are compatible with that signal. Both have the same potentiometer and coreless motor. The difference between the two servos is the 3154 has an extra circuit in there to update the motor at a much higher 333hz rate. So if you did think about it, its the 3154 servo where the motor would burn out faster. In either case, the motor can burn out caused from too much heat attributed from load of the flybarless head or even a crash - yes a crash can cause the linkage to be bound up which can prevent a servo from moving to a different position.
I should also point out the 3114 has more dead band (less resolution). Its because the 3114 updates the motor position on the same receiver PWM rate of 50hz.
So we need to be careful about speculating too much, otherwise folks like TucsonFlyer may feel that he bought an S3114 that is more susceptible to motor burnout.
Final note. A lot of these PWM specifications and differences are not payed attention to when using Walkera equipment because all the electronics in these helicopters are made from the same manufacturer and the manufacturer ensures it's all compatible for us who buy Walkera stuff.

U will need to cut the sservo tap & filing or grinding on the frame.
Also prepare spacer for the extra servo height for tighten the servo metal mounting plate.
Due to geomentry of servo height, the horn will not mounted 90degree anymore to compensate the extra height.
The servo lingkage will need to shorthen for correct pitch change.
To get correct full collective +/- 11degree travel, u will need to do some trimming on the pitch travel on transmitter.
This will takes quite a few hours to get it right.
Good luck.

I was nervous as heck! These 200's don't bounce as nicely as the 120's and I really didn't feel like rebuilding the whole heli. I also find it a bit nerve wracking that I never really seem to know what some of these walkera FBL systems are going to do inverted until I try. In the end though I just pulled back on the stick and it tracked nicely the whole way around.
About the FBL unit.... Can't expect too much for $60... at least the damn things work. lol. You could alternatively get a AR7200BX for $230 just for the RX. Thats the real difference though. Even the 2702V is not up to par with that thing.

With the DFC they moved the tail servo inside the frame where that video shows the RX. That kills most of the space and then the 3GX unit takes up most of the space in the lower frame. If the 802 was about 2mm shorter and the pins faced the front rather than up then I could mount it above the 3GX under the main gear. I'm just not going to shell out for a futaba or a spektrum TX and another RX just to save some wiring headache. I'll put up some pics soon, I'm still trying to work through the component locations until I find something good.

Wow, just wow. This is the perfect way for them to get together. I like all the stories with them getting it on i high school, but if I'm honest with myself it's not too realistic. You write so well i could forget just for a little while that this is not reality, although i have always wondered about that little smirk Puck gives after he asks Sam about the balls in his mouth. I've always had a feeling that it was either slight admiration or an ' I'd like to find out' kinda smirk. Any way great job, i now have look at the rest of the stories you've written to make sure i haven't read them yet.

Ok I haven't checked yet, so maybe my wish has already come true but I would love to see a companion to this amazing piece.

This was so wonderful...and so HOT, gah! Puck is one of my favorite characters on Glee- his character has so much potential they have yet to uncover on the show. I absolutely loved this! Thanks for sharing you talent!

Jesus! This is all I could want in a Puck/Kurt fic. It's thoroughly enjoyable, I love the progression, and the dose of delicious hotness at the end was perfect.
| IceQueenRia chapter 1 . 5/20/2011
Aww, that last line was super cute. Loved the whole lead up of this, how Kurt kept in contact with Will and the slow process of learning how Puck kept contact and how he matured over the years. The two of them laughing in the church, while inappropriate, was funny to read and Puck dancing with Beiste was cute too. And then there was sex so yay. And I always love bottom Puck so that made it even better. Loved it, thanks for sharing.

This was the star of Sunday dinner, delicious! I made it into a casserole and used a butternut squash, cut back on the sugar to 1 table spoon of Splenda brown mix and followed the recipe for the rest of it. turned out sooo delicious!! Thanks for posting Bergy!
This is one of our favorite side dishes - easy, colorful and always well received.
Glad to see it in print so others can enjoy
Bergy, I LOVE YOUR RECIPES!!! I made this a few weeks ago minus the spices and only used 1 TBS brown sugar and 1 TBS butter for 1/2 sweet dumpling squash, and one large apple. I also added some rotisserie chicken. I cooked the squash that was cut in half & seeded in a pan with 1/2 inch water, with the cut side down, for about 45 minutes. Then I cooled it enough to handle and peeled it, cut it into chunks and mixed it with the apples in a casserole and baked 10 minutes covered, then added 1 cup rotisserie chicken and covered and baked 15 minutes, then I put the dried cranberries on just as I was bringing it to the table. My mom and I LOVED it, and so did my 15 yo Son! I took it to potluck last night, again with out spices, used 1 sweet dumpling, 2 apples, 1 TBS butter and brown sugar. Everyone loved it! Thanks for the idea!

NEW YORK -- The Los Angeles Angels have lost each of their first three series, a drab start to a season with so many high hopes.
Pitcher Jerome Williams struggled in his season debut and the Angels' offense couldn't quite overcome it in Sunday's 11-5 loss at Yankee Stadium. The Angels are in last place, already 4 1/2 games behind the Texas Rangers 10 days into the season.
Spring cycle: Howie Kendrick tends to do this, snapping out of slumps in spectacular ways. He was benched in the first game of this series because of an 0-for-12 stretch, but has gone 6-for-10 since. Sunday he fell a home run shy of the cycle, pounding a triple off the center-field wall in the first, doubling to right in the fifth and bunting for a single in the seventh.
Pushing hard: Mark Trumbo doesn't have a position, but he does have a hot bat. One of those two propositions is going to have to give. Trumbo is hitting the ball harder, more consistently, than any other Angels hitter. He mashed a towering home run to left-center and is batting .375. He's even walking, something he rarely did a year ago. It looks like he might be morphing into a more complete hitter, but can the Angels get him in their plans?
Catching fire: At this point, Chris Iannetta looks like as decent a choice as anybody to protect Albert Pujols. He leads the Angels in extra-base hits after smashing a fifth-inning two-run home run off Ivan Nova. The Angels' previous No. 1 catcher, Jeff Mathis, didn't pick up his sixth extra-base hit until May 31, Game No. 31. Iannetta could get there in Game 10 if he hits a double, triple or home run Monday night.
Slow start: Williams readily admitted he was nervous about pitching his first game at Yankee Stadium, on ESPN and on Jackie Robinson Day. But he didn't show it in the first inning, breezing through the first three Yankees hitters. Things quickly unraveled after that, however, with Williams lasting less than three innings in his season debut and, once again, raising questions about the back of the rotation.
Cleanup mess: First, Kendrys Morales, now Torii Hunter. The guys who hit behind Albert Pujols have been taking turns slumping. Morales was benched after going 1-for-23 with seven strikeouts and Hunter is making scant contact lately. He went 0-for-4 with three strikeouts and has yet to drive a ball this season.
Scant relief: On the New York Mets, Hisanori Takahashi was a versatile and valuable pitcher, making some good starts, pitching solidly in middle relief and even closing at times. In two seasons with the Angels, he hasn't found a role that suits him and he certainly hasn't performed well. The Angels' offense showed some life as the game wore on, but thanks to Takahashi's rough outing -- three runs in two innings -- it never quite mattered.

Clean with bore cleaning solvent on a patch or rag.
Oil with gun oil on a patch or rag.
The Parkerizing needs to soak up oil to provide rust protection.
September 12, 2010, 01:10 PM
There is no special drill. Depending on what you apply oil to the parkerized surface with, you may see a little lint.
September 12, 2010, 02:53 PM
Use grease instead of oil, oil will evaporate way too readily when that barrel heats up, or it simply sits too long. Grease is pretty much there for the duration.
September 12, 2010, 04:46 PM
Clean it with regular bore solvent. If you have a little patch of rust put some kroil on it and let it soak for a few hours. take an old toothbrush and see if that gets it off. After you've cleaned it, soak, I mean soak, that sucker with Rem oil and let it sit overnight. Soak it down again the next day and let that sit overnight. Wipe off excess and reassemble.

Very interesting thread. I'd be interested to know if the recommended methods should be altered if the gun is stored in a warm area? I live in the 3rd floor of a house that gets rather toasty.
September 13, 2010, 12:36 PM
Not unless you store it next to the shower. ;)
Think about it...people don't do special things for blued carbon steel. The parkerized surface is even more resistant to corrosion and retains oil/etc. (of any kind) better on the surface due to the "toothy" surface. If you treat it like a blued gun, you will be fine under normal condx. If you live/hunt/store it/etc. somewhere where a blued gun would need more care, just do the same.
September 13, 2010, 03:43 PM
Parkerizing will actually rust more severely than polished blue if it's completely devoid of lube, it'll take on moisture and hand oils and hold them right against the underlying steel for some serious corrosion.

'Malcolm and Teresa' has trouble finding heart of pair's connection
In early 1968, conservative British journalist Malcolm Muggeridge was asked to conduct a televised interview of an Albanian nun. He had never heard of her. The world did not yet know her. It soon would: Her name was Mother Teresa.
That's the setup in Cathal Gallagher's "Malcolm and Teresa," which is receiving its regional premiere at Christian-based Acacia Theatre Company in Mequon, in a production that opened Friday night under Elaine Rewolinski's direction. »Read Full Article

of the most puzzling and famous life questions has stumped people for
generations. It's the question of which came first: the chicken or
the egg? In order for there to be an egg, a chicken would have
had to lay it. In order for there to be a chicken, it would have had
to hatch from an egg. It seems as though either answer could be the
correct answer; until
Colin Freeman from Sheffield University along with colleagues from
Warwick University have figured it all out. Their research project
originally aimed to figure out how animals make eggshells because
it's an extraordinarily strong yet lightweight material that
no human has been able to replicate, and the researchers hoped to
learn how to develop a manmade equivalent by learning about the way
animals make eggshells.
were chosen as their test subjects simply because the protein was
easy to study. The study began when Freeman and his colleagues used
the UK Science Research Council's super-computer called HECToR (High
End Computing Terascale Resource), which is based in Edinburgh. The
"ingredients" used to make eggshells were programmed into
HECToR, and that was it. The computer was left to produce results on
its own, and it took weeks for HECToR to figure out how chickens make
HECToR finally arrived at a conclusion, the researchers were stunned
when they realized that they had solved the age
old question. After years and years of debate, it was finally
determined that the chicken
came before the egg.
had long been suspected that the egg came first, but now we have the
scientific proof that shows that in fact the chicken came first,"
said Freeman.
they found was a protein, called ovocledidin-17 (OC-17), that exists
only in a chicken's ovaries and is vital to eggshell formation in
chickens. The protein acts as an ongoing builder that pieces
microscopic parts of the shell together by converting calcium
carbonate into calcite crystals. The shell would not exist without
this protein, which only exists in chickens, so the end result is
that the chicken came first.
The protein
was discovered before this research project, but HECToR made
it easier for the researchers to observe the process "in
microscopic detail," thus understand the proteins significance
in the eggshell-making procedure.
what does this mean for those who always thought the egg came first?
Freeman and his colleagues referred to some theories that suggest
that chickens' "ancestors evolved to create hard eggs around the
time of the dinosaurs."
addition to answering the question
that has burdened the human race for ages, the results of
this study could be advantageous in the medical field since human
bones and teeth are made in a similar way as eggshells. This could
lead to a better understanding of how to rebuild human bones. Also,
the study could help figure out how crystal structures can be
made and destroyed (since the eggshells are made up of microscopic
crystals). Learning how this can be done could lead to the
elimination of limescale crystals on pipes and kettles.
quote: The study of evolution has lead to advances in many fields
quote: On the other hand, creationism leads us to no scientific advancement, no increased knowledge of how the world around us works, and no useful applications.
quote: At one time, denouncing creationism as the explanation for how all things came to be as they are would result in severe social implications - or worse. The same can be said about the stance the Church took on the Earth being the centre of the Universe. Those were dark times.
quote: But believe what you will, that is totally your right. Let's look at the consequences:
quote: "You have heard that it was said, 'Do not commit adultery.'e 28But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart. 29If your right eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell. 30And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to go into hell.
quote: Has a married man ever looked at a pretty girl and thought about her lustfully? Better gouge out your eyes. Ever masturbated? Cut off that hand!
quote: If you don't cheat on your wife because you're afraid you'll get caught, but you still want to, you have committed adultery. If you want to commit the sin, yet don't because you fear God will punish you, you still have committed adultery. That is my understanding of what Jesus was saying.
quote: How, then, are words spoken centuries later, by Jesus himself, so easily cast aside as "hyperbole".
quote: But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart. 29If your right eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away.
quote: It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell.
quote: If you don't find satisfaction debunking others, what's your point anyway? Too much time on your hands? Do something constructive. Unless you can't even do that...then well LOL
quote: You must now give up all your worldly possessions, leave your family/loved ones,
quote: Can a camel pass through an eye of a needle?
quote: Well, through God, all things are possible. All things... Even something like the Universe being 13-odd billion years old?
quote: The man Jesus spoke to about being rich and the eye of the camel thing was a very devout man. He followed every commandment.
quote: "it is harder for a rich man to enter into heaven than for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle".
quote: I only continue the debate because some continue to insist that I'm hell-bound for believing in macro-evolution.
quote: Essentially you just said, "I am a Christian, but I don't believe God when he said he created everything in 6 days." Does no-one else see something wrong with that?
quote: When I see you, ironically, insult others and treat them dismissively because they don't agree with you on how the Universe was formed and how old Earth is, well, it sort of seems that you too have forgotten the real important lessons and teachings of Christianity yourself.
quote: insult others and treat them dismissively
quote: Until then, we will just dismiss everything you just said as pure non-sense.
quote: I don't think most things in the bible were meant to be taken literally....the bible is full of symbolism.
quote: Remember you aren't a "saved" or a true Christian because you read a book, any more than because you go to Church. Someone can be saved and a Christian having never opened a bible in their life or stepping foot in a church.
quote: Its what we believe, feel, pray, do...God knows if we are full of *hit or not in our belief..we aren't fooling him...its just are we honest enough to ourself in what we fear , doubt or don't know?
quote: And let me also explain the consequences. If there is a God who created everything, then you are REALLY pissing him off by scoffing his creation and not following his laws. Lets just assume that: Piss off God = punishment.
quote: your dumn ass reasoning that you should worship "God" because what if he does exist.
quote: Secondly, you HAVE NOT sampled every religion out there.
quote: Ok, I can tell you are getting upset now... no point in making you cry.
quote: Faith is by nature a nonthinking thing, and therefore an almost animalistic thing, unbecoming of those who consider themselves to be rational humans.
quote: universal understanding of Good and Evil
quote: So are you saying that the billions of people on this planet that follow another religion are stupid? Seems by your reasoning he isn't a very good god if he was only able to convince a small minority. The only conclusion I can draw then is that you are not following the correct god and are yourself stupid. Hmm...
quote: One takes observable phenomenon, such as genetics, random mutation, natural/sexual selection and vast amounts of time to explain what's going on. The only component of this theory that hasn't been directly observed is time.
quote: On the other hand, we have the theory that an all-powerful being created everything roughly as it is today, and did so very recently. We have the same amount of evidence for this as we have for other theories, such as an old Native-American theory that the world we know is the back of a giant turtle shell floating in the ocean. None of this has been observed.
quote: The study of evolution has lead to advances in many fields, with real-world results ranging from medicine to computer programming. Man's increased knowledge of the finer workings of nature continues to benefit us, as we replicate what we see and work that into our technology.
quote: On the other hand, creationism leads us to no scientific advancement, no increased knowledge of how the world around us works,
quote: At one time, denouncing creationism as the explanation for how all things came to be as they are would result in severe social implications
quote: maybe the Church was right about that, too.
quote: 3) The fossil record absolutely does reflect evolution. There are clear paths between mammals and lower lifeforms.
quote: I am a computer scientist, and am not aware of any computer programming advancement attributable to macro-evolution.
quote: Please don't embarrass yourself:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetic_programming
quote: I am a computer scientist, and am not aware of any computer programming advancement attributable to MACRO-evolution.
quote: the official position of the RC Church is that evolution occured.
quote: The Roman Catholic church is now considered a cult in my book. They have distorted the Bible so much, that they don't have any sense of direction anymore.
quote: chances of moving from a bacterium to homo sapiens in 10 billion years or less is 10-24,000,000. That's a decimal point with 24 million zeros to the left of 1.
quote: Trying to equivocate the Genesis account with giant turtle shells is asinine.
quote: In 2003, it was estimated that there are 70 sextillion stars in the visible universe. That's 7 followed by 22 zeros.
quote: How is equating one culture's story of creation with another culture's asinine? Because yours is written in a book? The biblical version of the creation myth is no more or less valid than any other attempt at an explanation.
quote: The VAST majority of these are completely uninhabitable for any type of life.
quote: The turtle shell example was cherry picked as a preposterous example of something that couldn't possibly be true...
quote: ...atheists had to concede this. And even now they remain diligently at work trying to come up with other models to get around the profound theological problems this presents.
quote: This arguement exposes a basic misunderstanding of evolution and the fossil record. First, the notion there are no transitional forms is patently FALSE.
quote: Nice to refute me by quoting a guy from 160 years ago. Using the level of scientific knowledge from the 1840's to prove a point in a debate in 2010 is like trying to use a roman legion to penetrate the magiot line!
quote: To look at Darwin's finches and assert macro evolution does not occur is to look at the sun and say it will burn out when the wood is gone.
quote: 1) It never explains the origin of the first life (abiogenesis). Even if we had concrete proof that one type of species (i.e. reptiles) completely morphs into another type of species (i.e. mammals) you still need an original animal to get everything going. And materialism has no answer whatsoever for how that first life formed from non-living chemistry.
quote: 2) It goes against what we observe in the labs with bacteria in experiments such as the Lenski experiments or the double mutation experiments conducted by Ralph Seelke.
quote: 3) The fossil record doesn't reflect what we expect from a gradualistic transformation of single celled organism to complex mammals. The record actually shows new species springing into existence suddenly with no previous transitional forms. The Cambrian explosion is the best example of this problem for neo-darwinists.
quote: 4) It defies all common sense and ascribes supernatural powers to random processes. Frank Tipler and John Barrow calculated that the chances of moving from a bacterium to homo sapiens in 10 billion years or less is 10-24,000,000. That's a decimal point with 24 million zeros to the left of 1.
quote: I argue against the alternative theory that creation occurred ~6000 years ago, and I disagree with ideas such as humans and dinosaurs existing at the same time.
quote: and that species do not evolve
quote: Their research project originally aimed to figure out how animals make eggshells because it's an extraordinarily strong yet lightweight material that no human has been able to replicate, and the researchers hoped to learn how to develop a manmade equivalent by learning about the way animals make eggshells.
quote: Freeman and his colleagues referred to some theories that suggest that chickens' "ancestors evolved to create hard eggs around the time of the dinosaurs."
quote: Yes, humans expending energy, time and resources using their intelligence cannot replicate the egg, but, randomly, without any reason, it just happened in the past.
quote: We haven't been trying very long.
quote: Also, we've made much better things than eggs, like...plastic.
quote: Yes, humans expending energy, time and resources using their intelligence cannot replicate the egg, but, randomly, without any reason, it just happened in the past.
quote: Yes. I don't see why you have a problem with this. Random processes are extremely powerful. Anyone who has worked in the fields of product testing, software or hardware verification could tell you that. A random process running according to selection rules and constraints is quite capable of achieving things that would be extremely difficult to design. Especially when it is running over millions and billions of years and generations.
quote: Sure there is. Lifeforms are constantly being tested on their ability to survive and compete for resources in the environment. When they fail the test, they die out.
quote: This isn't the time for questioning your worth.
quote: This isn't the time for questioning your worth.
quote: Stupid people have been riding on the coat tails of innovations made by the intelligent for quite some time. Modern medicine repairs many people after they do stupid things. Watch the beginning of the movie "Idiocracy" for a comedic view on the matter. And not all stupid people survive. Check out the Darwin Awards for a good laugh.
quote: You can't have it both ways. Either evolution works all the time or it doesn't.
quote: You are some how implying that the attribute of "ugly" somehow impedes one's ability to survive. You may say that being "ugly" inhibits reproduction, but humanity for the most part practices monogamy, and the majority of the time ugly people would rather mate with other ugly people than to spend their life alone, and not mate.
quote: That's not to say that humans are no longer evolving, or no longer abide by "survival of the fittest", it's just that the definition of "fittest" has changed drastically for modern humans when compared to our ancestors and other animals.
quote: So being ugly isn't a disadvantage? Even ugly people want to marry good looking ones. Just like the other poster, he proved my point. Even when not involving humans, this is the problem of getting all the beneficial traits passed on to all and killing the rest. It doesn't happen. Even science experiments proved this point when trying to weed out traits: the undesirable ones keep coming back.
quote: Why should it change when we are the product of evolution, which is selfish?
quote: Anyhow, I'm pretty sure that the first chicken came from an mutated egg laid by a proto-chicken.
quote: According to Dr. Knut Schmidt-Nielsen,"A bird egg is a mechanical structure strong enough to hold a chick securely during development, yet weak enough to break out of. The shell must let oxygen in and carbon dioxide out, yet be sufficiently impermeable to water to keep the contents from drying out."Under microscopy, one can see the shell is a foamlike structure that resists cracking. Gases and water pass through 10,000 pores that average 17 micrometers in diameter. Ultimately, 6 liters of oxygen will have been taken in and 4.5 liters of carbon dioxide given off. The yolk is its food. All life support systems are self-contained, like a space shuttle.All hen's eggs are ready to hatch on the twenty-first day. Every day is precisely preprogrammed. The heart starts beating on the sixth day. On the nineteenth day the embryo uses its egg tooth to puncture the air sac (beneath the flat end) and then takes two day to crack through the shell.
quote: The concept of MILLIONS of years is a little hard to imagine given how short a single human life is.
quote: The bible has been proven to be written by humans (I won't claim just men for I am fairly sure some women also had a part in it originally seeing as how it is just stealing older works and re-telling them). It is a rehashing for Egyptian, Hindu, Summerian, and Greek myths, propagated as truth. Eventually, even it will die out much like all the previous other ones have. Sadly, I probably won't live to see it, although I wish I could.
quote: Isaiah Chapter 13:20It shall never be inhabited, neither shall it be dwelt in from generation to generation: neither shall the Arabian pitch tent there; neither shall the shepherds make their fold there
quote: Last I checked, Al Hillah, "Babylon" from your Isaiah Ch 13 has 360K people living there. quote: Isaiah Chapter 13:20 It shall never be inhabited, neither shall it be dwelt in from generation to generation: neither shall the Arabian pitch tent there; neither shall the shepherds make their fold there So much for that one eh?
quote: Ahh but you see, it was translated wrong and I am actually correct, it is Al Hillah it'll be proven in about five years. I'm going to say you are wrong there as well seeing as how you don't read Hebrew, let alone ancient Hebrew. :)
quote: As for your Philistia (ethnic group) not a city, last I checked they weren't wiped out as Egyptians are quite prominent in every single actual historical event.
quote: It hasn't been translated into many other languages perfectly fine, look at the whole controversy with "murder" vs "kill". One example, not to mention the whole virgin birth debacle shows you the translations are flawed and unless you can read the original works they need to be taken with a huge grain of salt.
quote: As for Edom, there is a huge discrepancy with the timeline of the biblical account of things. The bible puts Edom at a time of around 1400 BCE or there abouts, actual archaeology links it as 700 or 800 BCE at earliest. You don't think 600 yrs is a huge difference and an uncountable variable for a supposed "perfect" book?
quote: You are reaching for truths, and not to mention what was Edom existed for many centuries after its supposed "destruction". Edom was a nation until 629 CE after the Jewish-Roman wars ended.
quote: Originally, people thought the commandment meant kill, but looking at it in context and comparing it to other sources (which is one of the things archaeologists are good at, real ones, not christian) it was determined that the xcert was actually grh, which mean murder, not kill.
quote: The virgin birth one is based on greek, in which the greek for virgin is not written in the gospels in fact the word used means 'young woman', kind of throws the whole virgin part out. :)
quote: Edom is much younger than the bible says it is, which is one contradiction, second it didn't die out till long after predicted. You have to stretch the death listed by the bible by almost 400 yrs to make it reach, and even then some people were still called Edomites in ancient history even dating after their final "death" and "destruction" 600 yrs later. :)
quote: I can make a prediction too watch this:
quote: Not bad eh? :D
quote: ...um, no. Evolution doesn't simply go from "creature that lays no eggs" to "creature that lays the perfect egg that we have today". The concept of MILLIONS of years is a little hard to imagine given how short a single human life is. I'm no biologist, but I imagine the first egg shells were much thinner and less robust than the ones we have today - perhaps more like simple membranes... and had none of seemingly miraculous properties of the current shell. Yet the offspring would have survived in the same way that they survived when they came out with no egg-shell at all.
quote: Even Richard Dawkins, a staunch evolutionist/materialist cannot understand why we have male and female reproduction today, because it requires much more in the way of resources, time and is much less efficient, and would never be favored by natural selection, ever.
quote: Sexual reproduction is preferred in some species because it greatly, greatly increases genetic diversity, which helps survivability incredibly.
quote: Of course it does, but that's after the fact. The road leading to it isn't favored. Expecting it to all show up all complete to "see" the benefits is out of the question, and that's exactly what Dawkins said.
quote: There are plenty of things that evolution cannot explain YET, but not being able to explain them yet does not imply that they can't be explain in the future, and cherry picking instances where some things are not fully explained does not discredit the theory as a whole.
quote: Where did God come from?
quote: But at that time however they say everyone will be sh itting in their pants as to the events going on that precede it.
quote: It takes more faith to believe in evolution then it does to believe in God.

Love the change up to the color scheme! Fiesta!
