Goddard heat plant: It's now up to the judge
PLAINFIELD — The fate of Goddard College's proposed biomass-fueled heating plant is in the hands of a judge.
Construction of the heating plant is on hold as the state's Environmental Court has been hearing an appeal by Plainfield resident Rhea Wilson of the town Development Review Board's decision to grant the college a permit to build it. A second case is also before the court in which residents are appealing the school's Act 250 permit for the plant. The cases have been combined and are being heard together.
Last week, both sides concluded their arguments and Judge Thomas G. Walsh said he will decide about the plant in the next 30 to 90 days. Goddard officials had no comment as they await the decision.
The battle over the plant has been a long and sometimes angry one.
On April 30, the court decided the plant was in fact a light industrial project and therefore subject to conditional use review. The college had tried to argue that the plant was an accessory use and therefore not subject to a conditional use review, an outcome that would have negated the appeal by Wilson.
In the Act 250 appeal, seven residents are asking the Environmental Court if the Environmental Commission erred in saying the plant will not cause undue air pollution; if the nanoparticles the plant would release into the air are dangerous to human health; and if the commission erred in saying the plant won't adversely affect the aesthetics of the area, among other questions.
On Town Meeting Day in March, voters rejected a nonbinding article asking the college to halt construction of the plant until it could prove that the nanoparticles produced by the facility would be harmless. The debate over the article got nasty at times with neighbors accusing each other of being "liars," "losers" and "jerks."
In January, Karen Bouffard, one of the residents listed on the Act 250 appeal, said the $2 million plant would be built about 200 feet from her home. She opposes the plant in part because she believes it will pose a health hazard for her and others who live near the facility, which would be built next to Route 214. Bouffard also had no comment Wednesday.
Goddard has said previously that the nanoparticle issue has been settled because emission controls for the plant would meet and exceed Environmental Protection Agency standards. Faith Brown, chief finance and administration officer for the college, said in January that Goddard did look into moving the plant from its current proposed location but that the other sites considered would not be cost-effective and would present access challenges for wood chip delivery trucks in winter.
The plant is designed to replace 22 oil-burning furnaces, a move the college says will reduce its dependence on foreign oil and help the environment, according to Brown, by replacing fossil fuels with the renewable "clean energy" of wood chips.

Fired probation agent pleads to drug crimes
Court finds Kim Hoenisch guilty
A fired Wisconsin probation agent accused of stealing prescription drugs has pleaded no contest.
The Wisconsin attorney general's office said Kim Hoenisch entered pleas Monday to charges of misconduct in public office, burglary, possession of narcotic drugs and possession of a drug without a prescription.
The court accepted the pleas and found Hoenisch guilty. She'll be sentenced April 25 in Marathon County.
The Wausau Daily Herald reported Hoenisch's husband, Marathon County Sheriff Randy Hoenisch, was in the courtroom for Monday's hearing.
Wisconsin prison officials fired Kim Hoenish last month, two days before she was formally charged. She was accused of stealing prescription medication from the clients she supervised.
The defense plans to ask for probation only and no prison or jail time.

- Abstract
- We use redshift determinations and spectral analysis of galaxies in the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey to study the properties of local radio sources with S ≥ 1 mJy. 557 objects (hereafter called the spectroscopic sample) drawn from the FIRST survey, corresponding to 2.3 per cent of the total radio sample, are found in the 2dFGRS catalogue within the area 9h48m ≲ RA(2000) ≲ 14h32m and -2o.77 ≲ Dec.(2000) ≲ 2o.25, down to a magnitude limit bJ = 19.45. The excellent quality of 2dF spectra allows us to divide these sources into classes, according to their optical spectra. Absorption-line systems make up 63 per cent of the spectroscopic sample. These may or may not show emission lines due to AGN activity, and correspond to 'classical' radio galaxies belonging mainly to the FRI class. They are characterized by relatively high radio-to-optical ratios, red colours, and high radio luminosities (1021 ≲ P1.4 GHz/W Hz-1 sr-1 ≲ 1024). Actively star-forming galaxies contribute about 32 per cent of the sample. These objects are mainly found at low redshifts (z ≲ 0.1) and show low radio-to-optical ratios, blue colours and low radio luminosities. We also found 18 Seyfert 2 galaxies (3 per cent) and four Seyfert 1s (1 per cent). Analysis of the local radio luminosity function (LF) shows that radio galaxies are well described by models that assume pure luminosity evolution, at least down to radio powers P1.4 GHz ≲ 1020.5 W Hz-1 sr-1. Late-type galaxies, whose relative contribution to the radio LF is found to be lower than was predicted by previous works, present an LF which is comparable with the IRAS galaxy LF. This class of sources therefore plausibly constitutes the radio counterpart of the dusty spirals and starbursts that dominate the counts at 60 μm.

ŌĆ£Every community is a little different,ŌĆØ said Mark Clasby, Haywood County EDC director.
The statement is at once liberating and almost overwhelmingly open ended. It gives the Jackson County Economic Development Commission a host of options to consider in the process of restructuring following a period of turbulence and duress that left the commission short on members and money (see related article).
The commission is most likely looking at a complete overhaul, from membership to where funding comes from, how the commission spends its money to whoŌĆÖs in charge.
ŌĆ£WeŌĆÖre really proud of what weŌĆÖve done, but itŌĆÖs not getting the job done,ŌĆØ said Sylva Mayor Brenda Oliver, who co-chairs the EDC along with Dillsboro Mayor Jean Hartbarger.
To begin, EDC members would be happy just bringing county commissioners back to the negotiations table. The county suspended its participation in the EDC two years ago amid controversy over how EDC funds were being used.
EDC members are hopeful that the new board of county commissioners will be more willing to discuss re-instating the countyŌĆÖs partnership with the EDC than the previous board of commissioners, who were scrutinized for their attempts to remove former EDC chairman Tom McClure from his posts in 2005.
McClure also was chairman of the Jackson County Airport Authority. CommissionersŌĆÖ tried to oust him upon calling for an investigation into EDC spending; however, the move resulted in a lawsuit against the county that cost several thousand dollars of taxpayersŌĆÖ money to fight and ultimately lose.
Mending damaged relations between the county and the EDC could be what paves the way for the hiring of an executive director to oversee economic development.
ŌĆ£The county has support staff and they have the money to really fund a position, and we feel that the county needs to be a player in the EDC in order for us to make the best possible efforts for a successful EDC in Jackson County,ŌĆØ Oliver said.
An executive director could provide direction for the future.
ŌĆ£When new businesses are contemplating coming in those businesses have to be assisted in a lot of different ways and an economic development commission does more than say ŌĆśhereŌĆÖs some moneyŌĆÖ or ŌĆśhereŌĆÖs a loan,ŌĆÖŌĆØ said Chris Matheson, the EDCŌĆÖs newest member. ŌĆ£Our goal is to provide them with some assistance and thatŌĆÖs a tough thing to do when youŌĆÖre all volunteers.ŌĆØ
WhoŌĆÖs on the EDC?
The primary goal of the Economic Development Commission is job creation.
The EDC in its current form is a standalone organization created in December 1999/January 2000. The 10-member commission was comprised of representatives of the county, towns of Dillsboro, Sylva, Forest Hills and Webster, as well as Southwestern Community College and Western Carolina University.
County commissioners got three appointments, Sylva two, and the remaining towns one each. Both WCU and SCCŌĆÖs representatives were to be permanent, voting, ex-officio members, either being the chancellor or president or his appointed representative, according to EDC bylaws. Each member elected is to serve a one-year term. After initial terms of appointment, members may serve three full consecutive terms.
Bylaw changes have been in the works for more than a year, many of which were made to bring the EDC into statutory compliance, Oliver said. However, some changes county commissioners already have taken issue with.
For example, the new bylaws reduce EDC membership from 10 members to nine. The reduction means that county commissioners will have two rather than three appointments to the EDC. Commissioner Tom Massie said he did not understand the reason for the reduction. Oliver said it was a statutory compliance issue. But commission size could instead go up.
The Henderson County Partnership for Economic Development has a 15-member board elected by the membership. Members ŌĆö such as banks, utility companies, attorneys, and industries ŌĆö can choose one of three membership levels, paying dues of $250, $500 or $1,000.
ŌĆ£ItŌĆÖs a mix of people that have and share an interest in growing the economy of Henderson County and helping create quality jobs for the people who live here,ŌĆØ said Scott Hamilton, HCPED executive director.
In order to belong to the HCPED, members must also belong to the local chamber of commerce.
HCPED board members form a committee that nominates individuals to serve. Ballots are sent out to the full membership, which chooses five members at a time to serve three-year terms, for as many as three consecutive terms. Board members in turn elect a chairman each year. Officers may serve no more than two consecutive terms. One board seat is reserved for the chairman of the chamber of commerce.
Buncombe County has contracted with the Asheville Area Chamber of Commerce to provide economic development. An inter-local agreement established an EDC comprised of nine-members, which oversees a staff employed by the chamber. The county appoints six of the nine board members; the other three are appointed by the chamber. County appointments should be able to address county concerns; however, thereŌĆÖs more too it, said Buncombe County Manager Wanda Greene.
ŌĆ£When you look at it, you want to make sure that you have something that reflects your community too,ŌĆØ she said.
The City of Asheville has its own economic development department and the regional economic development entity AdvantageWest also is very active in the area.
In Catawba County, thereŌĆÖs also a nine-member board, with five members appointed by the county, two appointed by the City of Hickory and one appointed by each Newton and Conover. The board sets policy for a staff of four full-time and one part-time employee.
Haywood CountyŌĆÖs EDC was restructured in 2003. The nine-member board is comprised of two county commissioners, a representative from Waynesville, Maggie, Canton, and Clyde each, and from the Chamber of Commerce, Employment Security Commission and the Haywood Advancement Foundation.
The HAF is a 501c3 property buying organization, similar to the Jackson County Development Corporation. Currently EDC Executive Director Clasby also is chairman of the HAF, much like McClure was chairman of both the EDC and JDC, the EDCŌĆÖs property buying subsidiary. However, Clasby said that perceived conflicts of interest have not been a problem for Haywood.
ŌĆ£We have our two distinct organizations and we never mix the funds,ŌĆØ he said.
Haywood EDC terms are variable, with no real term limits, Clasby said. In general, terms are determined by the people filling the positions ŌĆö if they are serving in a public office and win re-election, they stay, if not they go. Otherwise appointing entities are in control.
So far, the commission has been fairly consistent in its makeup.
ŌĆ£With the recent county elections this is the biggest change weŌĆÖve had with two new county commissioners coming on,ŌĆØ Clasby said.
County commissioners Mark Swanger and Kevin Ensley, who served on the EDC, lost re-election.
Where does the money come from?
In 2005, Jackson County commissioners said that as the largest contributors to the EDC they had a right and responsibility to look into how funds were being spent.
In the 2003-04 budget year, commissioners allotted $100,000 to go to the EDC but spent just slightly more than $83,000. For 2004-05, commissioners again budgeted $100,000 and received an additional grant for $12,000. Only $33,333 was spent before the county suspended its participation. The countyŌĆÖs total EDC contributions from 1993 to 2005 total approximately $1.4 million.
Wrapped up in the EDC was the countyŌĆÖs revolving loan fund. Originally was established in 1982 with a $750,000 community development block grant issued to Jackson County government, the fund created a separate pot of monies that could be loaned out to assist local businesses. Revolving loans are considered high-risk as they are most often issued to start-ups or struggling businesses as a means of injecting capital. Two revolving loans were issued to companies located on property the EDC purchased ŌĆö QC Apparel in the Tuckasegee Mills building and Clearwood Inc. on the Drexel Heritage property.
With more than $1.2 million in outstanding revolving loans at the time the EDC investigation was launched, the county pointed fingers at the EDC, saying it was the commissionŌĆÖs job to oversee their payment. McClure also was chairman of the countyŌĆÖs revolving loan committee.
McClure said he told county officials it was their responsibility, that the loan committee has no authority unto itself, that the EDC has no authority over the committee and all loan records are under the county finance officerŌĆÖs care. County Manager Ken Westmoreland said that monitoring of the loans was delegated to the EDC in a memorandum of agreement creating the position of economic development coordinator. However, no part of the agreement specifically addresses the revolving loan fund or the revolving loan committee.
Without the loans, the countyŌĆÖs contribution to the EDC is less than that from county governments in Buncombe, Catawba, Haywood, or Henderson. Buncombe contributes $400,000, which mostly goes to EDC staff salaries, Catawba gives $250,000 a year, Haywood contributes about $284,000 per year, and in Henderson commissioners give $220,000.
Additional funds come from a variety of sources including municipal governments, grants, membership dues.
Such financial contributions do buy a certain amount of power.
ŌĆ£We couldnŌĆÖt function without that,ŌĆØ said Catawba EDC Director Scott Millar, of the countyŌĆÖs contribution. ŌĆ£While they donŌĆÖt have a direct voice on our board, they certainly have control of our pocketbook.ŌĆØ
While the Jackson County commissionersŌĆÖ contributions havenŌĆÖt been as large as in other counties, their decision to withdraw from the EDC and suspend funding severely reduce its budget. Municipal contributions are relatively nominal ŌĆö a $2,000 contribution from the town of Sylva; $1,000 from Dillsboro; and $500 each from Webster and Forest Hills. In comparison, Henderson CountyŌĆÖs town of Fletcher, Mills River and Hendersonville give $10,000 each to the local EDC.
Last year the Jackson EDC budget was a mere $62,588.45. And this yearŌĆÖs budget was slated to hit around the $40,000 mark until the mortgage came due on the former Buster Brown property.
On May 21, 1997, the Town of Sylva and Jackson County government jointly purchased SylvaŌĆÖs Buster Brown property following the apparel companyŌĆÖs closure. But the joint purchase was nothing more than an agreement to serve as temporary stakeholders, setting up the county government as a front for an EDC property buy.
The May 21 deed states that the reason an agreement between county and town leaders was necessary was because the JDC ŌĆö the EDCŌĆÖs property buying entity ŌĆö was not ŌĆ£duly organizedŌĆØ in accordance with state laws and thereby could not conduct the property transaction.
The EDC consequently put up half of Buster BrownŌĆÖs $550,000 price tag, with the intent of the JDC later assuming control over the property.
The JDC mortgaged the Buster Brown property for $325,000 days before selling it to Diversified Exposition Services for $625,000 in July 2001, but financed slightly more than $590,000 of DESŌĆÖs purchase price. By August of 2002, the JDC began renegotiating DESŌĆÖs financing agreement, adding more than $50,000 of accrued interest to their balance and securing a two-points lower rate of interest.
The JDC transfer of $300,000 to pay back the EDC upped this yearŌĆÖs budget more than eight times over. Nearly the entire budget amount has been allocated to site acquisition, development and capital improvement projects.
What do you do with what youŌĆÖve got?
For any EDC the goal is creating jobs, most often through the retention and expansion of existing business and the recruitment of new business.
However, EDCŌĆÖs face an important question of whether to try and diversify or focus on the sectors of their local economy they already know is strong.
ŌĆ£Our mission statement says that will we diversify the economy,ŌĆØ said Millar of Catawba CountyŌĆÖs EDC.
The Catawba economy was for years firmly rooted in furniture and textiles. As the market changed, the EDC looked toward the telecom industry. But now, sites are set on the horizon, and the EDC has identified favored businesses that are expected to grow such as IT, automobile parts suppliers and food processing.
ŌĆ£We donŌĆÖt do small business development, we donŌĆÖt do tourism,ŌĆØ Millar said.
Millar gave local leaders copies of the book The World is Flat: A Brief History of the Twenty-First Century by Thomas L. Friedman, which explores globalizationŌĆÖs effects on the economy.
ŌĆ£ItŌĆÖs just one of the most right on books for our time right now,ŌĆØ Millar said.
And he just ordered a couple of cases of Patagonia founder Yvon ChouinardŌĆÖs new book, Let My People Surf, which relates his and his companyŌĆÖs story and the core philosophies that have made it successful.
Forward thinking helped created CatawbaŌĆÖs eco-complex, which is centered around landfill gas recovery program. Clay was dug up to cover the trash in the landfill and the EDC in turn used the flattened sites where the dirt was removed to attract business.
A timber processing company located on one site and was throwing away its scraps. Now a pallet company is planning to use the scraps. The leftover sawdust is used to make steam to heat a 100-acre greenhouse.
The Catawba EDC doesnŌĆÖt set goals such as creating X amount of jobs or X million dollars in investments. Rather staff creates a yearly plan. For example, the existing industry services staff member plans for 100 visits a year. Last year, she made 130 visits. Millar said that in general heŌĆÖd like for the EDC to be more pro-active in scouting out new business ŌĆö he himself heads up the manufacturing recruitment program ŌĆö but says there are only so many hours in a day and the incoming inquiries are more than enough to fill them.
ŌĆ£We just landed about two months ago a $100 million Target distribution center, which will employ about 600 to 800 people,ŌĆØ Millar said.
The Henderson County Partnership for Economic Development has created a target market list and requires businesses to meet state incentives standards such as paying above the average county wage rate, which in 2006 was $558 per week.
Haywood CountyŌĆÖs model is a bit different in that the EDC puts a lot of focus on entrepreneurs and small business. For example, the EDC helped sponsor a contest for new businesses in which the winner received $10,000 to help with start-up costs.
What breeds success?
EDC officials agreed that a strong relationship between the private and public sectors must exist in order for an EDC to succeed.
Garnering support from local governments, boards of directors and the community comes from being accountable for your actions.
The Buncombe County commissioners get reports from EDC officials and keep an eye on pre-established goals and measures, said county manager Greene.
ŌĆ£I think thatŌĆÖs tweaked every year so that we get more and better feedback about whatŌĆÖs going on,ŌĆØ she said.
However, partners also must allow those they have put in the decision-making position to do their job, Millar said.
ŌĆ£We are well trusted by each of those that we have their best interests at heart,ŌĆØ he said.
ItŌĆÖs a sentiment Clasby agrees with.
ŌĆ£Even though IŌĆÖm on the payroll of the county I feel like I work for all the municipalities in economic development,ŌĆØ he said.
The Jackson EDC has created a task force to assess where the EDCŌĆÖs future lies with the aim to bring in as much of the community as possible.
ŌĆ£The economic development of Jackson County is not just limited to a few select areas in the county, it involves a multitude of people and groups,ŌĆØ said EDC member Matheson.
The next Jackson County EDC meeting will be held Jan. 22.

Skip to comments.+ the BEGGAR KING: Answer to an Anti-Catholic + Part I
Posted on 04/16/2012 4:33:07 AM PDT by GonzoII
Catholics are accustomed to being the favorite target of bigots. The Catholic Church is attacked and ridiculed by both the left and the right, by both Secularists and Fundamentalists. Their points might be different but the methods are universally the same; disinformation and willful misrepresentation.
What follows is an exchange of views. I am presenting the text of an anonymous tract which I've frequently found on-line. It is a pretty good example of an attack on the Church from the "fundamentalist" perspective. I present it here in its entirety, unedited. I've added my own rebuttal and corrections throughout, usually paragraph by paragraph. Here is the key to who wrote what:
The original text of the anonymous tract appears like this, in italics and colored purple.
** My rebuttal follows in bold-face blue and is set off by two asterisks.
I've used the author's table of contents. Each chapter is a separate link and is hot-buttoned. The flow of the original text is somewhat haphazard and not well thought out but I've retained it. Feel free to jump around.
There are hundreds of millions of Roman Catholics world-wide, yet many are largely unaware of the dramatic differences between the official teachings, practices, and positions of the Catholic Church, and the clear teaching of the Holy Bible. There are multitudes of dedicated Catholics who are spiritually uninformed concerning these differences because of a lack of sound biblical instruction and exposure.
** There are indeed multitudes of Catholics, as well as Christians of other denominations, who lack "lack sound biblical instruction and exposure." But where will they find it? SOUND biblical instruction comes from the Church!
Though many Roman Catholics give unquestioned support to their church and strongly reject any possibility that their church may be in conflict with their own Catholic Bible, there are sincere Catholics who see glaring inconsistencies and contradictions between the official teachings of the Roman Catholic Church and the fundamental truths contained in the sacred Scriptures. This booklet offers Roman Catholics, who are seeking after truth, a clear- cut comparison between the major teachings of the Catholic Church and the Word of God. The Word of God is the supreme authority from which all Roman Catholics must derive their beliefs and practices. All Scripture references cited in this booklet are taken only from official Catholic translations of the Bible.
** Every polemicist has an axe to grind and here is my adversary's axe: "The Word of God (meaning, I think, biblical scripture in this context) is the supreme authority from which all Roman Catholics must derive their beliefs and practices." This thesis statement calls forth the Protestant Doctrine of Sola Scriptura. Catholics believe that the Bible IS authoritative, as long as it is properly understood. But we find NO justification in Scripture or out for the notion that it constitutes a "supreme authority" on ALL matters of "beliefs and practices." In fact, the record of Scripture actually says something else, as we shall see...
While this booklet scripturally challenges many of the teachings within Roman Catholicism, it is not an attack upon the competence, sincerity, intelligence, integrity, or religious dedication of individual Catholics. This booklet doesn't deny the reality that many Catholics possess strong convictions and are deeply devoted to their religious beliefs. Neither do we deny the fact that some Catholics have had a genuine, born-again experience in Christ.
** Here we have the standard disclaimer that the author is not attacking Catholics, just Catholic doctrine. But it is going to be difficult to tell a few "hundreds of millions of Roman Catholics worldwide" that they are completely mistaken or that they have been duped all along, without attacking their competence or intelligence, isn't it? Note also that the author uses his own yardstick of what constitutes a "Christian," despite the fact that the Bible no where requires a "born-again experience" of anyone.
However, this booklet does challenge many of the positions and practices of the Catholic Church by using a point-by-point comparison of its major teachings and the obvious truths of the Word of God. This booklet asks Roman Catholics to carefully examine the Scriptures with an intellectually honest and open attitude (Acts 17:11), and to judge for themselves what the Bible actually says apart from official church censorship, restrictions, warnings, indoctrination, and qualifications. We believe the clear truths of the Catholic Bible will speak for themselves.
** Again we are told what the author is going to do. Let me add my own thesis here. I will show that this author's arguments are flawed by virtue of poor scholarship, poor logic, a lack of concern in presenting Catholic teaching fairly, a myopic reading of scripture and a sad lack of charity.
The fundamental problem confronting the average Roman Catholic is the fact that they are almost completely unaware of what the Catholic Bible really teaches. Many sincere Catholics, including laymen and parish priests alike, have never had sufficient cause to question the teachings of their church because they have never been adequately instructed in the Scriptural truths which challenge the principle doctrines of Catholicism.
** It would be a very rare Catholic who has never been accosted by a would-be evangelist quoting snippets of scripture to show that Catholic the "error" of his or her way.
The tragic reality is that the overwhelming majority of Catholics have either never personally studied the Bible, or have only done so under the strict supervision and scrutiny of their church. Many have not been exposed to the clear, simple truths of the Bible because they have been repeatedly warned to rely on the official interpretations, opinions, and traditions of the church.
** Yes, it is a tragic reality that so many Catholics have never personally studied the Bible. But let us be serious, many Catholics DO read the Bible at home. And scripture is an integral element of Catholic worship (the Mass). Does the author know that as many as five scripture readings (from the old testament, psalms, epistles and gospels) are read at the Mass every day? I don't personally know of a parish which doesn't have some kind of scripture study available, "under the strict supervision and scrutiny of their church." Does that sound menacing? The vast majority of Christians, of ALL denominations, learn about the Bible THROUGH THEIR OWN CHURCH. Why make it sound conspiratorial?
Even though Catholic versions of the Bible (Jerusalem Bible, New American, and Challoner-Rheims Version of the Latin Vulgate) encourage Bible reading and study (Deut. 6:7-9; Ps. 119:9-11; Acts 17:11), the tragic historical fact is that Catholicism, with very few exceptions, has repeatedly discouraged Bible reading and study, and even banned or restricted its use, distribution, and possession.
** The Church does have a tragic history and we, this anonymous author and I, will examine that history as we proceed. Does the church, "with very few exceptions," repeatedly discourage Bible reading and study? The answer is simply NO!
The Roman Catholic Church has traditionally suppressed, opposed, and forbidden the open use of the Bible. It was first officially forbidden to the people and placed on the index of Forbidden Books List by the Council of Valencia in 1229 AD The Council of Trent (1545-63 AD) also prohibited its use and pronounced a curse upon anyone who would dare oppose this decree. Many popes have issued decrees forbidding Bible reading in the common language of the people, condemning Bible societies and banning its possession and translation under penalty of mortal sin and death. The Roman Catholic Church has openly burned Bibles and those who translated it or promoted its study, reading, and use (John Hus, 1415 AD; William Tyndale, 1536 AD)
** The author makes sweeping, perhaps wishful, exclamations of "fact" and backs them up with a smattering of dates. But is this scholarship? "Facts" are part of a historical record. Let's see how the author did here:
Though external pressures have caused Rome to relax its restrictions and opposition against Bible reading in America, the Bible is still widely withheld and its distribution and free use discouraged in many countries which are heavily influenced by Roman Catholicism.
** Any Catholic will tell you that Rome doesn't bow to "external pressure" or they surely would have on artificial birth control and married priests by now. Bald statements such as "the Bible is still widely withheld...in many countries" need to be documented somehow to be taken seriously.
[To be continued...]
Where is that in the Bible?
But here's this:
(1Ti 3:15) But if I tarry long, that thou mayest know how thou oughtest to behave thyself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth.
Matthew 7:6
Like I care what some "Christian" that hates me thinks.
John 3:3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
John 3: 7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.
I've often wondered why people make that claim when it's pretty obvious there in black and white.
My friend, I put experience in italics as the author did because he well knows one must be born again through water and spirit. He was emphasizing "experience" as a stimulating or moving experience which one is not required to perceive after Baptism.
Clarified in post #5.
Catholics are quite aware that they have to be born again we've known it for 2000 years. ;0)
I saw that coming, and wondered why the author included it, because it's hotly contriverted between Catholics and Protestants, and not central to his argument
The problem is that the passage says, "born from above," in the Greek. "From above" is idiomatically used occasionally to mean, "once more," sort of like the way we will use "over." Nicodemus plainly takes this as the meaning of Jesus (3:4), but Jesus immediately corrects him. The problem with King James and subsequent English translations is that the translation, "born again" captures only Nicodemus' false understanding, and none of the literal meaning.
I agree with you. With Scripture, a good person with quotes can use Scripture for his own interpretation. People can agree/disagree on what a particular quote from the Bible means. Agree to disagree. Unless there is a uniform interpretation of what Scripture means there will always be these differences of opinion, interpretation and "black and white."
Just MY opinion.
Joh 1:1-4 (1) In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. (2) The same was in the beginning with God. (3) All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. (4) In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
Mat 28:18 (18) And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.
Act 13:38-39 (38) Be it known unto you therefore, men and brethren, that through this man is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins: (39) And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses.
Eph 4:11-15 (11) And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; (12) For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: (13) Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ: (14) That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; (15) But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ:
The interpretation comes from God the Holy Spirit. This is also why God provides the spiritual gift of Pastor-Teacher.
Are you saying one can just go dunk his head and be baptised?
He was emphasizing "experience" as a stimulating or moving experience which one is not required to perceive after Baptism.
The whole point of the act is to obey God and Jesus. The act of obeying is also (in part) emotional. That is the experience we are talking about, isn't it? To become ever closer to our Savior?
Again, I agree with you.
Too bad all Pastors-Teachers aren't on the same page and interpret differently what they receive from God the Holy Spirit. As I said, without ONE interpretation from ONE authority here on earth, the Holy Spirit is speaking to ears that are hearing different things. My opinion.
Nice try at subtlety but it doesnt work. I can assure you that in every true believers life there is that experience of a changed heart. Its when the knowledge moves from the head to the heart. If you havent experienced it I pray you will. The "outward keeping of rituals does NOT make one a true member of Christs body.
But speaking the truth in love
through this man is preached unto you the forgiveness of sins
In Christ..
That's why the practice of infant baptism doesn't work.
Every pastor-teacher in fellowship with God teaches consistently the Word of God. Nothing else is required. God doesn't need denominations such as the RCC to verify His Word. He provides. By faith we know Him.
Huh... the second part didn't print...
Born again, means "born once over." Something "done over" is done the right way. You don't call a "do over" on a perfect play. What makes it perfect? Jesus explains, that it means being born of water and spirit. The water is a reference to baptism. What the author of this post stated is that there is no need for a "born again EXPERIENCE;" There is no need to do things the wrong way first. A child born of Christian parents who instruct him well and blessedly in the faith has no need to go screw up his life utterly, and then only as an adult be born of water and spirit. I don't mean he doesn't mean to be born "once over," simply that the baptism and upbringing he receives suffices, so long as he relies upon God his entire life.
When the disciples baptized entire households, there is no mention of children being excluded. Nor is mention made of any children of followers of Christ being baptized once they reached adult age. To the contrary, the bible explicitly states that entire households (which would include extended families, servants, and the servants' families) were baptized at once.
One does not baptize himself he is baptized. And no there does not need to be an emotional experience" thereby.
"The whole point of the act is to obey God and Jesus. The act of obeying is also (in part) emotional. That is the experience we are talking about, isn't it? To become ever closer to our Savior?"
Practicing virtue indeed involves emotions but many times they are contrary to the will of God but we do his will in SPITE of negative feelings toward the good. The emotions are entirely in second place the will remains supreme in doing God's will.
Could you show me in the Bible where the Scripture is sufficient for all truth from God. Does the Bible say that the Bible is the pillar and ground of truth?
There's always a "but"
... many times they are contrary to the will of God but we do his will in SPITE of negative feelings toward the good.
Perhaps, but none of that matters as those were not the emotions I was talking about.
The emotions are entirely in second place the will remains supreme in doing God's will.
Agreed. But the emotions are still there, impossible to separate from the act. That "experience" exists during and after the baptism, whether you admit it or not.
If that experience does not exist, then I claim you have not been baptised, but merely went for a swim--much like just showing up at church twice a year.
The heart experiences many things on the emotional side and you will never convince me the believers do not have apposing feelings or aversions toward the will of God. Does that make them not born again?
That's some fine tradition.
May we not forget: "Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the Word of God which liveth forever." (1 Peter 1:23)
"Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to His abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ." (2 Peter 1:3)
I'll take the Scripture's word over your word, they never say I need to feel anything but clearly that I need Baptism.
Of course not. We all have feeling that oppose the will of God. That doesn't make us any less saved or emotionally invested, nor does it make the positive experience at baptism any less valid.
Does that make them not born again?
I think we can agree that Paul was born again.
Read Romans 7--the entire chapter. I think that will answer your question.
Matthew 3:16-17
When Christ was baptised, His Father came down and announced that He was proud of His Son for obeying Him. Are you saying that there was no emotional factor there at that event?
"Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? by taking heed thereto according to Thy Word. With my whole heart have I sought Thee: O let me not wander from Thy commandments. Thy Word have I hid in mine heart that I might not sin against Thee." (Psalm 119:9,10 & 11)
"Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path." (Psalm 119:105)
"Entrance to Thy Words giveth light; it giveth understanding to the simple." (Psalm 119:130)
"All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness. That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works." (2 Timothy 3:16-17)
Don't forget Deu. 4:29 and Deu. 6:5
Am I to believe that this single verse is justification for all of the extra-Biblical traditions, beliefs, and practices of the Roman Catholic church??? Wow.
There's so much wrong with that - I just don't know where to start. Just to begin with, the context of entire book is a guide for a young pastor - Timothy - in getting his church started: how his own temperament should be, how to select officers for his church, and describing the basis of general order in worship for the church. Yes, the church is intended to be the place where truth is preached and defended.... but that basis must be originated by God. What better place than the love letter God left for us? After all, anything outside of those words leaves one wide open to this charge of being outside the scripture. One could argue perhaps that certain traditions are good and noble if all other practices contained in scripture were also included. But even on this (quite liberal) test the RCC fails.
Obviously, then, the RCC decided that scriptures were entirely inadequate, since (for example) in this very letter Paul laid down the office of deacon and elder in this very book, and the RCC uses neither.
Yet (in context) when Paul describes in a subsequent letter to Timothy that there will come times of trouble, (2 Timothy chapter 3), he comes back to scripture as the basis of truth:
"All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be competent, equipped for every good work." (vv. 2 Tim 3:16-17)
You want a verse about the authority of scripture? That one's a good start. How about that Christ himself insured that scripture was fulfilled in every prophecy about himself (John 13:18,19:28, et al)? It was important to have these things be completely true... lest be open to the argument of factual error. Yet the RCC ignores much about scripture, and adds on all kinds of other things from outside... and by that I mean serious doctrinal beliefs that are well outside the clear teachings of the Holy Bible:
> Marianism
> Purgatory
> Prayers for the dead
> the priest system (directly opposed to the teachings in 1 Timothy cited above)
These are just a few: and every single defense of these I've seen simply talks these topics to death, but utterly fails to cite any scripture to explain a rational basis for any of them. You have to start and end with scripture! Without this, you have nothing to fall back on to justify the doctrines that are the underpinnings of your entire existence!
In response, I want to know how you can have a system of beliefs and doctrines that exist from sources that do not include the Holy Scriptures. That's the only argument that matters here. How can one justify any such religious system without that? Even the Muslims and the Mormons (as whacked out as they are) cite their own scriptures as the basis for everything they do. They understand this argument (of course, their own error lies within their own doctrines).
You can't possibly know if there is any truth from oral communication outside of the Scriptures, or if it even came from God if you didn't get it from the Holy, preserved, written words of God...
1Th 5:21 Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.
In order to prove all things, one must have the standard of proof from which things can be tested...
On the one side of the scale we have the preserved written words of God...On the other side we have human sinners who claim their 'truth' is authoritative and yet have no record of any source of their 'truth' except other sinful men...
Why would any Christian chose the word of men over the word of God??? I don't believe it's possible...
1Th 5:27 I charge you by the Lord that this epistle be read unto all the holy brethren.
Why would a non-Christian ask that?
God said "This is my beloved Son in whom I am well pleased." Matthew 3:16-17 "Or Thou art my beloved Son in whom I am well pleased." Mk 1:11, 3:22.
The sense is the same. That testimony given by the Father was for the benefit of those who heard it. Christ didn't need to know he was God's Son because he Himself is God.
Also Christ didn't need to be baptized because he had no sin there would have been no emotional feeling of being freed from anything. Any way John's baptism didn't make you born again that came only through the baptism instituted by Christ which included the Spirit:
Acts: 19:2 And he said to them: Have you received the Holy Ghost since you believed? But they said to him: We have not so much as heard whether there be a Holy Ghost. 3 And he said: In what then were you baptized? Who said: In John's baptism. 4 Then Paul said: John baptized the people with the baptism of penance saying: That they should believe in him, who was to come after him, that is to say, in Jesus. 5 Having heard these things, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. 6 And when Paul had imposed his hands on them, the Holy Ghost came upon them.
Nothing in that post negates the experience part of baptism. I'm not sure what you are trying to say here.
Mark 13:31 - heaven and earth will pass away, but Jesus' Word will not pass away. But Jesus never says anything about His Word being entirely committed to a book. Also, it took 400 years to compile the Bible, and another 1,000 years to invent the printing press. How was the Word of God communicated? Orally, by the bishops of the Church, with the guidance and protection of the Holy Spirit.
Mark 16:15 - Jesus commands the apostles to preach the Gospel to every creature. But Jesus did not want this preaching to stop after the apostles died, and yet the Bible was not compiled until four centuries later. The word of God was transferred orally.
Mark 3:14; 16:15 - Jesus commands the apostles to preach (not write) the gospel to the world. Jesus gives no commandment to the apostles to write, and gives them no indication that the oral apostolic word he commanded them to communicate would later die in the fourth century. If Jesus wanted Christianity to be limited to a book (which would be finalized four centuries later), wouldn't He have said a word about it?
Luke 10:16 - He who hears you (not "who reads your writings"), hears me. The oral word passes from Jesus to the apostles to their successors by the gracious gifts of the Holy Spirit. This succession has been preserved in the Holy Catholic Church.
Luke 24:47 - Jesus explains that repentance and forgiveness of sins must be preached (not written) in Christ's name to all nations. For Protestants to argue that the word of God is now limited to a book (subject to thousands of different interpretations) is to not only ignore Scripture, but introduce a radical theory about how God spreads His word which would have been unbelievable to the people at the time of Jesus.
Acts 2:3-4 - the Holy Spirit came to the apostles in the form of "tongues" of fire so that they would "speak" (not just write) the Word.
Acts 15:27 - Judas and Silas, successors to the apostles, were sent to bring God's infallible Word by "word of mouth."
Rom. 10:8 - the Word is near you, on your lips and in your heart, which is the word of faith which is preached (not just written).
Rom. 10:17 - faith comes by what is "heard" (not just read) which is the Word that is "preached" (not read). This word comes from the oral tradition of the apostles. Those in countries where the Scriptures are not available can still come to faith in Jesus Christ.
1 Cor. 15:1,11 - faith comes from what is "preached" (not read). For non-Catholics to argue that oral tradition once existed but exists no longer, they must prove this from Scripture. But no where does Scripture say oral tradition died with the apostles. To the contrary, Scripture says the oral word abides forever.
Gal. 1:11-12 - the Gospel which is "preached" (not read) to me is not a man's Gospel, but the Revelation of Jesus Christ.
Eph. 1:13 - hearing (not reading) the Word of truth is the gospel of our salvation. This is the living word in the Church's living tradition.
Col. 1:5 - of this you have "heard" (not read) before in the word of truth, the Gospel which has come to you.
1 Thess. 2:13 - the Word of God is what you have "heard" (not read). The orally communicated word of God lasts forever, and this word is preserved within the Church by the Holy Spirit.
2 Tim. 1:13 - oral communications are protected by the Spirit. They abide forever. Oral authority does not die with the apostles.
2 Tim. 4:2,6-7 - Paul, at the end of his life, charges Timothy to preach (not write) the Word. Oral teaching does not die with Paul.
Titus 1:3 - God's word is manifested "through preaching" (not writing). This "preaching" is the tradition that comes from the apostles.
1 Peter 1:25 - the Word of the Lord abides forever and that Word is the good news that was "preached" (not read) to you. Because the Word is preached by the apostles and it lasts forever, it must be preserved by the apostles' successors, or this could not be possible. Also, because the oral word abides forever, oral apostolic tradition could not have died in the fourth century with all teachings being committed to Scripture.
2 Peter 1:12, 15 - Peter says that he will leave a "means to recall these things in mind." But since this was his last canonical epistle, this "means to recall" must therefore be the apostolic tradition and teaching authority of his office that he left behind.
2 John 1:12; 3 John 13 - John prefers to speak and not to write. Throughout history, the Word of God was always transferred orally and Jesus did not change this. To do so would have been a radical departure from the Judaic tradition.
Deut. 31:9-12 - Moses had the law read only every seven years. Was the word of God absent during the seven year interval? Of course not. The Word of God has always been given orally by God's appointed ones, and was never limited to Scripture.
Isa. 40:8 - the grass withers, the flower fades, but the Word of our God (not necessarily written) will stand forever.
Isa. 59:21 - Isaiah prophesies the promise of a living voice to hand on the Word of God to generations by mouth, not by a book. This is either a false prophecy, or it has been fulfilled by the Catholic Church.
Joel 1:3 - tell your children of the Word of the Lord, and they tell their children, and their children tell another generation.
Mal. 2:7 - the lips of a priest guard knowledge, and we should seek instruction from his mouth. Protestants want to argue all oral tradition was committed to Scripture? But no where does Scripture say this.
I'm saying Christ felt no elation on being baptized because he had no sin to be forgiven.
Christ was fully human and fully God. You're saying that Christ felt nothing when His Father proclaimed publicly that He was proud of His Son?
I find that quite difficult to believe.
The subject matter disallows me from saying I'm playing devil's advocate - but would their be elation from hearing The Father, yet alone His Father, providing such a affirmation?
That,is a bold face LIE!!
"But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through His name." (John 20:31)
"These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye believe on the name of the Son of God." (1 John 5:13)
There may have on the human level I don't know, but it surely wasn't news to Him he was always with the Father in heaven even when he was on earth.
Joh 3:13 And no man hath ascended into heaven, but he that descended from heaven, the Son of man who is in heaven.
I think you meant "there be" - Illiterate Boy....
Yes, the Lord Jesus taught these to be the first and great commandments.
In John 4:22-24 Jesus said:
"Ye worship what ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews. But the hour cometh, and now is, when true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship Him. God is a Spirit and they that worship Him must worship Him in spirit and in truth."
It was the human level I was most asking about - I know all we can do is speculate. But speculation is some of this forum that is fun, when not Klannishly trashing other religions... But I was thinking it gives us a thrill when a loved one affirms that love: perhaps it worked that way for Him too. Like I say, I dunno.
>> apposing feelings or aversions toward the will of God<<
No one ever said there wont be opposing emotions or feelings. We still live in this carnal body.
Romans 7:17 Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.
18 For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not.
19 For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do.
20 Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.
21 I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me.
22 For I delight in the law of God after the inward man:
23 But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.
24 O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death?
25 I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin.
Yes, of course the Gospel of Jesus Christ is preached. But it's preached from the scriptures. Why is this such a hard concept?? As as we learned from Paul, it is a good thing to check your preacher once he's done:
"The people in Berea were much nicer than those in Thessalonica, and they gladly accepted the message. Day after day they studied the Scriptures to see if these things [that Paul preached to them during the day] were true." (Acts 17:11)
What is it that they checked? Cassette tapes of oral traditions? Nope. The Written Word of God.
One more thing:
"Mark 13:31 - heaven and earth will pass away, but Jesus' Word will not pass away. But Jesus never says anything about His Word being entirely committed to a book. Also, it took 400 years to compile the Bible, and another 1,000 years to invent the printing press. How was the Word of God communicated? Orally, by the bishops of the Church, with the guidance and protection of the Holy Spirit."
Utter BALDERDASH. The scriptures have been written throughout the ages. Moses wrote it down. God Himself wrote the ten commandments. The scriptures were read before Kings. Jesus almost got stoned after reading the scriptures in his own home town. Christ cited scripture repeatedly. Jesus got into arguments with the SCRIBES and the Pharisees... but it wasn't an argument about their work (as those who wrote down and maintained the scriptures), it was over their own Oral Traditions. In fact, I personally refer to that incident as the First Reformation.
The WRITTEN Word of God has been with us through the history of man on earth, and to pretend otherwise suggests that was made up from nothing.
Hmmmm.... you know, it would have made sense to add in all of these extra-Biblical doctrines at the time that the printing press became possible... except,... oh that's right: the Protestants were the ones who spread the Bible to the masses and showed everyone that the RCC had been making it all up all along.
Amen! No argument there.
But lets add:
2Th 2:15 Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold the traditions which ye have been taught, whether by word, or our epistle.
1Th 2:13 "For this cause also thank we God without ceasing, because, when ye received the word of God which ye heard of us, ye received it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which effectually worketh also in you that believe."
How can a man's word be the Word of God unless it is of God i.e. God's Word?
Because the Gospels didn't exist when the Apostles went out to preach, how could it?
And Jesus being Baptized forth-with came out of the water:and lo the Heavens were opened to him:and he saw Spirit of God descending as a dove and coming upon Him.
And behold a voice from Heaven saying: "This is My beloved Son.In whom I am pleased".
This is from my Douay-Rheims Bible. The first bible translated. in english from Latin and Greek.
Where does "obeying" come from?
So, you're saying Christ wasn't obeying God? Do you want to go down that path?

Game Preview
George averaged 19.5 points in last season's Eastern Conference semifinals to help the Pacers oust the Knicks in six games. The series ended with an even aggregate score at 537-all.
Lance Stephenson, who is probable despite a sprained right foot, scored a career-high 25 points with 10 rebounds in the Game 6 win against New York.
The Pacers' five starters in the series each led the team in scoring in at least one game, while Carmelo Anthony led the Knicks in all six.
Anthony scored 25 points Tuesday in a 92-86 loss at Detroit. The Knicks (3-7) have lost three in a row for the second time this season.
They've shot 40.9 percent, including 42 for 130 from long range, during a 1-4 stretch that began with a 31-point home loss against San Antonio.
"We're going to get this together," forward Kenyon Martin said after making his first start of the season. "Teams go through slumps like that during a season, but we are doing it in November, so it gets magnified. We just have to figure out our problems on offense."
Point guard Raymond Felton sat out Tuesday with an injured left hip and lower back.
"We played like a team that was tired, but there was no reason for us to be tired," coach Mike Woodson said. "Some of that is because of Raymond, but you can't use that as an excuse."
Metta World Peace has missed consecutive games and is doubtful Wednesday against his former team after having his left knee drained on Monday.
Tyson Chandler remains out with a non-displaced fracture in his right fibula.

11 - 0 start, but man, we still don't look like a team that knows what it is doing right now. We're getting by in these first few minutes because the Pacers don't look like they've decided to start playing yet.
Great start, keep it up Knickerbockers....
Stephenson cutting to the hoop, I remember that from the playoffs, hope we can find an answer for it tonight.
Beno doesn't know our playbook, he look confused on every possession. ....
Our offensive possessions over the last few minutes have been painful to watch. You just can't keep running 'non-plays' on the offensive end and expect to beat anybody.
Yeah, seriously, and I just never imagined we had a complicated offensive playbook with all the iso plays we run.
Just got out of class, clockin in, Lets go Knicks!
Please, for the love of Allan Houston's knees, keep driving to the hoop, J.R.
Can't let that Hibbert nonsense happen. We start off 13 - 0 and they outscore us by 8 over the last two-thirds of the quarter. This team has no teeth, it's just hoping it wins, not actually trying anything in particular to make it happen.

Small-town politics still is entertaining
What is it about small-town politics that can stir coffee shop conversation, but stop people from speaking to each other?
Attend a city council meeting and you might think a referee is needed. At some meetings, elected officials as well as members of the public appear to be auditioning for a reality show. Infighting, heated accusations, players being ousted. Sounds like a television reality show; however, it's just the stuff of small-town politics.
Rather than having legal council at city council meetings, maybe they should have a medical professional to pass around blood pressure medication.
Personality clashes aren't confined to small-town government. They are found everywhere: associations, churches, country clubs, county, state and federal governments.
City council sessions might even be downright boring if it weren't for those super-sized egos.
Simmering disputes seem to boil over more frequently in small towns when elected officials are uncertain where their authority starts and ends.
And if you're an outsider – meaning you haven't lived there for at least 30 years – look out.
It may be that small-town tussles are so frequent because every decision is so visible and its impact so immediate. And this you can be certain of: Somebody won't like it.
In small towns there isn't a political class that lives apart or can be apart. They live with everybody and everybody sees them.

I am currently trying to exclusively breast feed my 12 week old son. We had a ropey start with me being a bit unwell with blood loss after delivery, delayed milk arrival and him struggling to latch on. Once we got going he then failed to thrive with his weight going from the 75th to the 0.4th centile. We were referred to an infant feeding clinic and I am having to top him up with expressed milk and formula to make up the shortfall.
Here's what I am currently doing:
Eating and drinking (3-5L/day) fine
Feeding him 3hourly then giving 120ml top up
Using compressions when he feeds
Letting him go longer overnight (~5hours)
Expressing as often as I can - generally max of 6/day
Using a hospital grade breast pump to double pump since 2 days ago (previously hand or small electric pump)
Taking fenugreek and domperidone at max dose
Eating porridge for breakfast
I tried a "nursing vacation" a couple of weeks ago but that seemed to make no difference either.
Despite this my expressed volumes are going down. I've never needed breast pads and my son does not seem to ever finish a feed from me i.e. he never comes off the breast awake and satisfied. He will fall asleep there but once wakes when moved and is still hungry. Left to just breast feeding, feeds would just run into each other and eventually he would starve.
What else can I do? I really want this to work but my body is just not doing it. We don't have lactation consultants around here so that is not an option unfortunately. My husband works till late so it just me and my son till late evening so I lack an extra pair of hands.

In a bid to offer the most advanced fabrication process technology among contract semiconductor manufacturers, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company has decided to skip development of 22nm manufacturing process and move straight to 20nm process technology already in the second half of 2012 with risk production, which results into volume manufacturing in 2013.
The technology will be based on a planar process with enhanced high-K metal gate (HKMG), novel strained silicon, and low-resistance copper ultra-low-K interconnects. The technical rationale behind the move is based on the capability of innovative patterning technology and layout design methodologies required at these advanced technology nodes.
During his address to nearly 1.5 thousand TSMC customers and third party alliances, Dr. Shang-yi Chiang, TSMC senior vice president of research and development, said that the move to 20nm creates a superior gate density and chip performance to cost ratio than a 22nm process technology and makes it a more viable platform for advanced technology designers. He also announced that TSMC is expected to enter 20nm risk production in the second half of 2012. Dr. Chiang also indicated that the company has demonstrated record-setting feasibility of other transistor structures such as FinFET and high-mobility devices.
"We have reached a point in advanced technology development where we need to be actively concerned about the ROI of advanced technology. We also need to broaden our thinking beyond the process technology barriers that are inherent in every new node. Collaborative and co-optimized innovation is required to overcome the technological and economic challenges," said Dr. Chiang.
TSMC recently decided to cancel development of 32nm manufacturing process and develop 28nm HKMG fabrication technology instead. Even though the move is projected to improve the company's competitive position in 2011, the decision comes after the company failed to deliver sufficient production yields with 40nm process technology, which was designed after TSMC decided to skip 45nm production tech.

800wine.com is your premier wine country gift company, offering a great selection of boutique wines, gourmet gift baskets, wine gift baskets, corporate gifts, wine gifts, champagne gift baskets, holiday gifts, wedding gifts, and business gifts. 800wine.com also offers a wide selection of lead-free crystal stemware, fine wine accessories, gourmet coffee and tea, cheeseboards, cheesecake, and more. Most wines on 800wine.com are shipped direct to you from the winery; it is your one stop shop for the best wine country experience.
FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions
Can wine be shipped to all states?
No, there are several states that prohibit delivery of alcohol. Our shopping cart will not allow you to check out with alcoholic items for states that do not allow delivery. This list of states that prohibit delivery of wine can change occasionally, but today it includes states such as AL, AR, DE, GA, KS, KY, ME, MS, OK, PA, SD, TN, UT, and VT. Certain delivery restrictions may apply in other states as well.
How can 800wine ship a bottle of wine across state lines? Isn't that illegal?
In many cases, it is illegal to ship alcoholic products to recipients in other states. 800wine, however, does not actually ship alcoholic products to recipients; licensed wineries and retailers do. Our nationwide network of retailers enables us to have product shipped locally in many cases (often from within the recipient's state). In this way we ensure that all shipments are made legally and in total compliance with the "three-tier" system, in which product flows from the producer to the wholesaler and on to the retailer. At the same time, this shipping system enables us to offer the fastest and lowest cost delivery anywhere.
How does 800wine ship internationally?
Most of our international shipments are sent automatically to our fulfilling partner in the destination country, who then sends out the product from his or her own inventory. The cost savings that 800wine offers for international shipments are by far the best in the industry. In many cases, the shipping charge for international shipments is just about the same as a standard domestic rate.
For some international orders (like certain wines to Japan), products are actually shipped from the US. We are able to offer some of the most competitive international shipping rates anywhere. We occasionally even offer free shipping to Japan!
Can 800wine ship other things internationally?
Absolutely. Please click on the International Orders link on our home page to see the great selection of gift baskets we have for other countries. We have different selections for several countries, including Canada, the UK, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Italy, Australia, Japan, Hong Kong, Singapore, and many more.
How much do you charge for shipping?
For direct shipments, 800wine's shipping charges are based on standard rates available through national carriers such as UPS or Fedex. Since 800wine's shipments are often intrastate and therefore need to travel relatively short distances, our shipping rates are often significantly lower than you will find elsewhere.
How long will it take for my order to arrive?
Wine products, gift baskets, and other items that can be shipped directly to you generally arrive within 3 to 4 business days of the order, unless express shipping is ordered. Flowers are generally shipped overnight, though you can specify the exact date of delivery in the shopping cart.
For wines that need to be sent out on a bulk shipment from California and routed through a wholesaler and a retailer (the WorldShipNet shipping option), delivery takes more time. The exact amount of time depends on when the order is placed in relation to the bulk shipment (currently there are two bulk shipments per month), but generally wines shipped through WorldShipNet will require from 3 to 5 weeks for delivery.
Please allow up to 7 days for coffee, tea, and wine accessories.
Do you sell any glassware made with lead crystal?
No, we do not. We sell Ravenscroft and Stolzle glassware, both of which are completely lead-free.
What's the capital of Madagascar?
Just keeping us all on our toes…it's Antananarivo.

Even recently though, I was eating a solid amount of food, and drinking protein shakes (only one pack of four, so only four straight days of them), and I was still losing. I bought them every week, but I don't have the money for them. No money also means no gym, my goal goes further than being in good shape. I am going for physique.
You're doing more than me. I'd love to do pull-ups and chin-ups, but the thing I have for that doesn't fit anywhere in my apartment, and it's an old apartment, so I don't want to risk anything. I just use it for dips now. I want to see if there's one in my school, first I gotta get a doctor's note so I can use the gym. Why not? It's free. Could do other things there too. Every other day I do push-ups, dips, a couple of forearm exercises with a chair (my forearms have not seemingly changed at all, aside from it not being difficult to do the exercises after a small amount of reps, which it was early on), three sets of squats while holding a ladder (12,16, then push myself further every time on the third set. I had to go easy a couple of weeks or so because my head was throbbing in pain after), another exercise with the ladder (raising it up then lowering it a bunch of times), some other stuff, then I use a tensolator my dad got from the 70s or close to than, do sit-ups and crunches, and finish off my workout with a cardio routine that lasts about nine minutes. I need to switch up the order again, maybe that will help me.
The other every other days I jog a little under thirty minutes. I jog around the lake, roads that are a little deep (not long roads), do a few jumps over some sort of railings in a parking lot, and finish it off by running up to the top of my apartment building. Recently I jogged up the huge road by me after getting off my bus from school after jogging a few minutes. It's tough, but I keep Bruce Lee in my head. It's worth finishing. First time I did it, which was my first day on my journey of working out, I saw stars and I was dizzy. I've done good, far from great, which I want to be.
Thanks for the response, man. I might have to eat some more fattening food. My metabolism doesn't play.

New York City just got soooooo much cooler… all thanks to megasuperstar Alicia Keys!
At 9:00 p.m. ET on November 26th, Alicia helped kick off the most KICK ASS light show by flipping the switch on The Empire State Building, prompting a synchronized showcase of two of her hottest tracks—her single from her new album "Girl on Fire," followed by (one of my ultimate favorite songs ever) "Empire State of Mind."
This is the coolest part ever though– all Clear Channel radio stations—Z100, 103.5 KTU, Power105, and 106.7 Lite fm—all simultaneously played the music to the light show. (Apparently the new state-of-the-art LED technology the building has installed features 16 million colors. Incredible.)
Big lights will inspire you. Let's hear it for New York, New York, New York!
Watch this amazingness!!!!!!!!!

Sustainable Agriculture Project adds new projects
Posted on October 30, 2013
Grand Valley's Sustainable Agriculture Project, located on Luce St. in Allendale, is expanding its space by adding a herb garden and various trees.
The garden will include a mix of herbs, flowers and berries, said Youssef Darwich, president of Farm Club. "It will be irrigated with an underground sprinkler system that will be fed from rain barrels that capture water from the roof," he said.
Members of Farm Club will also be planting hundreds of cloves of garlic and preparing to extend the growing season into the winter by installing low tunnels over the beds to grow kale and spinach.
SAP hosts a Community Supported Agriculture program. CSA shares are available to purchase here.
The initiative is a collaboration between students, faculty and staff to experience sustainable agriculture. The project began with a group of students in 2008 and has expanded in the past few years to include a variety of different projects.

Laurier Toronto
Laurier prep courses offer incoming students opportunity to test drive university life
Communications, Public Affairs & Marketing
Jul 3/12
For incoming students, the summer before the first year of university can be a time of great excitement, curiosity, and perhaps a bit of nervousness about what lies ahead. Laurier offers university prep courses that recreate the university experience and help ease the transition from high school to post-secondary education.
University 101 allows students to experience academic life through assignments and lectures that focus on key skills such as time management, learning styles, critical thinking, active reading, active listening, study-aid development and note taking, as well as test-taking strategies.
University 102 focuses on helping students with researching and writing strategies to improve thesis development, critical reading and reflection, how to write academically and properly cite sources, as well proofreading skills.
These courses are non-credit certificate courses and are open to any student who plans to attend a post-secondary institution in September.
University 101 and 102 are offered in two formats:
- An in-class option is available at Lauriers Waterloo and Brantford campuses and Toronto office. Each course is a week and start at the beginning of August. The Waterloo and Brantford courses cost $375, and the Toronto course costs $475 each.
- An online option is also available for 101 and can begin at any time but must be completed by August 18. This course costs $375.
For more information, please visit www.wlu.ca/learning/u101 or email firstname.lastname@example.com.

Pitchers and Catchers report!
So, this is good news for the Tigers. Because they have Dontrelle Willis and he's the second coming of Christ. He's my big, black baby Jesus, all wrapped up in swaddling clothes. And I'm going to love him, and hug him and treat him like he's my very own. Well, at least until he gets down by five runs in the second inning of his first start. Then I'll be cursing the day that the Tigers ever thought that a fish could make it. But, on the bright side, at least we did something. What exactly was it that the Cards did in the offseason? I'm just asking. Don't hate me cuz I'm right, hate me because I'm beautiful.
2 Comments
Your as cool as after school but I ain't signing on to read about those wack *** Cardinals. This is the year. Go Blue.
I personally think Dontrelle could win more than he loses but not much more. I mean, the move from NL to Al is significant, not pitching to the pitcher? Plus Dontrelle could freaking hit, I mean it was part of his draw…he hit a grand slam what last year? maybe it was 2 years ago. I remember the last time he was at Shea he went 2 for 3 with a x base hit. I don't know how he'll take to the DH. That said he could be a black baby jesus, I just don't know how long it will truly take him to adjust and how pitching to another batter (a good batter) will affect his inning-pitched, especially later in the year when those innings start to earn a burden of burning-out, especially for a team that duels often to get into the post-season and needs those late-year performances…
But HEY… best of luck.

I had a question about lipase. I took my first frozen bottle out yesterday for my husband to give to my daughter while I was out. I smelled it to see if ti was okay and it smelled like rust. I tasted some and it was awful. So I took out another newer bottle and it was the same. So I am concluding that I have a lipase problem. My confusion is this, when I keep my milk in the fridge (when I know she will get the bottle within a few days) I haven't noticed any problems - even after several days, doesn't a lipase problem affect refridgerated milk the same way it would frozen?
Thanks so much!

Suicide Bunny is one of the most up and coming products for those who want to quit smoking. The brand not only attracts attention through the name but also through the top products sold. Pip, the creator of Suicide Bunny, started this company not for herself but for her husband. Pip with this product, was finding a new and enjoyable way for her husband to stop smoking without having to quit the practice all together. Once this product took off, Pip, using her creativity has been trying to find new and innovative and flavorful ways for her fans to use her product without smoking the expensive and harmful cigarettes.
Suicide Bunny offers all kinds of products that help smokers enjoy and delicious, cheap, and safer method of smoking. Among some of the popular E-liquids are Derailed, Mothers Milk, Sucker Punch, The O.B., and Madrina. These flavorful bottles are what makes smoking the vapors so enticing.
Derailed is, among the E-liquid family one of the most popular and raved about E-liquids of the company. This popular flavor attracts so much attention from the flavors of fresh baked cookies as well as cinnamon banana. As a personal user of this product, I can attest to the the high praise that it gets from users around the world. This E-liquid was actually the product that helped me stop smoking after 10 years of constant cigarette cravings.
Out of all the flavors, I would choose the Derailed E-liquid. I realize that there are plenty of other options on the site, however I am particularly biased towards this flavor because the fresh baked cookie smell is my favorite smell and flavor to inhale. I have tried other vapors in the past with flavors like apple or cherry, however this by far is my favorite.
Among my favorite flavors are the Mothers Milk, Sucker Punch, The O.B., and the Madrina. Each offer a specific flavor that i love. Although I am partial to the Derailed, I often enjoy other flavors to add some diversity. The O.B. as well as the Madrina are delicious E-liquids that sometimes tastes like I am drinking a latte. This E-liquids have a rich and creamy flavor that brings some clarity to my morning when I have that morning fog. What I like most about these two flavors is that as I use my vaper while eating a scone, I feel as though I am in a cafe, sipping on a nice cup of my favorite rich latte while taking small bites from my mouth watering chocolate chip scone.
Mother's Milk, just by the name has to be good. This flavor has been one of my all time favorite flavors that pair with a nice night time snack. Mother's Milk provides the user with a rich and creamy dessert taste with a hint of strawberry when exhaling. As you can tell I am a food enthusiast which is exactly why you should try these E-liquids. They will give you the cravings for the delicious food that you haven't even been craving yet.
For when I ever take that wanted trip to the Bahamas, I have to bring the Sucker Punch E-Liquid. This delight brings a fruity mix flavor to my mouth that even now makes my mouth water excessively. I mean who comes up with dragon fruit as a flavor for a vapor? This just shows the creativity that goes behind the products that are put of by Suicide Bunny. While inhaling the Sucker Punch, you will be craving a smoothie, I promise you that. With the variety sold by Sucker Punch, I would review this brand as being my favorite brand to use when looking for flavors. eJuice Farm is an on like vape land where you can buy all of your suicide bunny e juice flavors for great prices.
