Purchased from: Paul Bothner
Features: - Made: 2005 in Indonesia- Frets: 22 large- Top: Solid maple- Body: Hollowbody, maple top, sides and back- Neck: Set-in Canadian maple with rosewood fretboard- Finish: Transparent Cherry Red- Bridge: T.O.M bridge & stop tailpiece- Electronics: Passive ClassicRocker-II (H-H)- Controls: 2 tone, 2 volume, 3 way toggle- Tuners: Non-locking VintageThis guitar is a little awkward to play for those used to strat-shaped guitars and the stop tail bridge also feels a little clumsy because of that. it has a nifty scratch plate that I use to anchor on. Controls a good space apart. // 7
Sound: "How does it suit your music style" - Some of you are about to hate me for this. I play a load of improv and sort of melodic what I feel music. I tend to do a lot of jazz chord voicings and blues tricks and feelings and this guitar is great for all of it. But I took it to my metal bands practice session and they love it's sound compared to my Ibanez with my Seymour Duncans. I know I drop C'd a hollowbody but it was for 2 hours. But for what I want this fits the bill. I use a Roland ME-80 preamp and all that into a Roxy MG120 head to make it louder through my 4x12 cab. This guitar has such a full sound I don't have to do much eq or effects filling. I would be fine with putting it straight into a PA system and playing like that. It just has something about it on any setting or pick-up. Super warm on the neck with just this super smooth sound. Nice and bright on the bridge with just enough snap in it from the plectrum. A little thin but just as clear and cutting in a mix. No noise that I have noticed playing in my room, at chapel or even at death metal band practice (sorry bout that again). Only some temperamental feedback facing the amp but also a very quiet guitar. I am now a believer in the power of maple wood guitars.What kind of sounds can this guitar make? Barring my effects emulator it does the whole package of jazz and blues sounds with some rock-ability up its sleeve. I mostly play Jazz chords and inversions (drop-2 voicings and all that) with simple pentatonic flavouring. Then it can get some grit in it when you turn on your over drive and then is a different thing for metal altogether. I can't even describe it. You just have to try and see. But that aside this is comparable to any other hollow body in my opinion. The sound you get is how you play it. It puts the tone in your court. // 9
Action, Fit & Finish: Set up out the factory. Perfect intonation, awesome low/medium action to play on for this kind of guitar. I put a set of 11's on it because I like being able to feel my strings when I play. Pickups were well adjusted. Has all sorts of compensation angles on them. The neck is super low, which is good because it is already so full. You don't want it getting boomy. The bridge also is lower on the higher strings so that it doesn't kill you when you play on them. Also parallel with the strings despite the curve of the body which was impressive to see. Could do some fine work with the screws but that's a minor issue.Something that kills it for me is the toggle. This one is really bad and feels like it's going to break in my fingers. And it sometimes drops my neck pickup and I need to toggle it up and down a bit to get it back. Input jack is doing that annoying loose nut thing (am I the only one this happens to?). Other than that I am all happy. A couple of probably masking tape errors in painting but unless you were looking for it (like me just now) you won't ever see it. // 7
Reliability & Durability: This will play live. just so long as you keep it mildly tame. I may be over protective of my baby but it doesn't have the sense of a guitar that will last without a hard case. The toggle is a serious concern I have but the rest of the hardware seems solid after 3 months. Tuners are stable, bridge rocks. Tone controls control tone and volume reliable volumes.Strap buttons? Check. Solid? double check. Strap-locks? Only if I can pry my strap off of these to fit them. Can I depend on it? Heck yeah! Unless I fail a power slide like JB in Tenacious D. But I don't do that. I don't spank my strings or strangle them with bends so it should last pretty well for any gig. No backup needed, they would pale in comparison. Finish will only take damage if you don't look after it. The gloss and red are all over the body and neck, just wipe it down with your guitar polish cloth when you are done and it will treat you just right. // 8
Overall Impression: I play a hearty amount of acoustic, rock, a fair shot at jazz and blues. But I never expected this guitar to put up with the metal I played on it. But seriously, play a II-V7-I and tell me you're not impressed. Been playing for 5 years this year. I also own a Cort X-2L and an Ibanez RG370DXZL. I wish I could have asked the shop if they could throw in a hard case. They are attuned to not giving the best deals but what's done is done. This could have come with more. If it were stolen I would sell one of my guitars to raise funds to buy this again. I plan to keep it as long as I can.Love? I love it's tone and playability. The scale is so much nicer for me to play on. Hate? The contours feel a bit awkward and this is not a good guitar to sit down with, it's a little bulky. Favourite feature would be the neck being set firmly into a solid block of maple running through the guitar. The tone the construction gives is unbelievable.I compared this to a number of guitars. Ranging from a Cort M-600 to a $2000 telecaster (no competition but at that price there wouldn't be) and this guitar just was the most well rounded of them all. I play a bit of this and a bit of that and I am always experimenting with playing styles and tones. The hollow-body warmth just hooked me and I don't regret this one at all. // 8
Price paid: A$ 399
Purchased from: ebay online
Features: The Source is Cort's take on a 335/semi. Made in Indonesia, 2013 purchased new July 2014. Maple ply body, Canadian Maple Neck, twin humbuckers... Quite standard layout for this style of semi. If you are thinking about the Source as a "335 copy," DON'T. Searching for info on this guitar will bring up references comparing it with things like the Epiphone Dot and others. STOP RIGHT THERE! The Cort Source is way above those kinds of comparisons. If you want a real comparison for the Source test it against the top line Tokai's or even a Gibson itself. The Source is THAT good. Read below why. // 10
Sound: The Source has a traditional twin humbucker / 4 pot layout. The pickups are nothing short of superb. Look at them in detail. The pressing of the covers alone will tell you these are quality pickups that someone has put a lot of time into designing. The covers are crisply pressed with very small radiused edges, far superior to anything by Epiphone etc. The pole pieces have large screws (like Gibson) and the covers are finished in a slightly yellowish, burnished "slightly aged" style. They look like something a boutique maker would charge hundred's for. They sound fantastic and are responsive at all settings. Quality details like the pickup ring and adjustment screws being finished in black are indicators to the quality and thought put into this guitar. // 10
Action, Fit & Finish: Cort are one of the worlds biggest guitar makers. They can easily make the highest quality instruments when they decide to. If Cort builds a "cheap" guitar it's because someone has contracted them to, not that they can't build high quality. The Source is a classic example where Cort have sat down and decided to build a Gibson quality instrument at a fraction of the cost. Probably just to show they can. The fit and finish of the Source is superb. The neck tag shows the many stages it was signed off of and it shows. What many people will not realise is the detail that has gone into the Source. A genuine small post ARB-1 bridge (rarely found on a copy), QUALITY woods (the thickness of the top alone will show you this is far above a "copy" 335). It has things like a Graphtec Nut as standard. The machine heads feel like the quality of Schallers or Klusons. Take a look at small things like the pickguard support post, copies will only have a bent metal bracket, the Source has a Gibson style cast support... Another sign that Cort thought hard in designing this guitar to be TOP quality. Other small things like all the wiring is tucked neatly behind the f-holes and cannot be seen... the list goes on. // 10
Reliability & Durability: The Source is as reliable and durable as a Gibson except the neck of the Cort wont snap off like a Gibson because of it's scarf joint. The Source is like having a Gibson that was designed properly. These guitars are THAT good. The Source is quite heavy and just picking it up you can feel how solidly it's been built. The woods are heavy and dense, the fit is tight and when you hold it it feels whole and as one. Far higher quality that any other 335 clone by any maker including Tokai. The only true comparison is a Gibson and in many ways the Cort feels superior. // 10
Overall Impression: If your serious about a Cort Source and have got this far here is the deal. What you will be owning is a Gibson quality instrument at a fraction of the price. Without doubt in years to come these guitars will be sought after in the same way as many Japanese '70s/'80s makers have become cults like Gekki, Matsumoto etc. What Cort did in designing the Source was to showcase that they can build world class instruments at a fraction of the cost. Without doubt there was a meeting at Cort where someone said "let's show Gibson" and they have. They took traditional American quality and threw it back in their faces. The list of small details screams thought and quality. From the ABR-1 bridge to pickguard bracket to the feel, fit and finish Cort built a classic. The Source is a Gibson eater without being a 100% direct copy. It's slightly different in shape and it's not trying to be a copy. It's much more than that. // 10

Justin Bieber and Lots of Other Celebrities to Appear at the CES 2012. A few days ago we talked about Justin Bieber and the Vietnamese manufacturer of robots and high-tech toys that the young pop star is going to help to promote its new product at the CES 2012. It turns out that Justin Bieber will not be the only celebrity who will appear at the show. People who go to the CES 2012 can expect to see Jordan Rudess, Chicago, LL Cool J, and 50 Cent. There are also celebrities that are not from the music industry who will appear at the show, such as Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi, Dennis Rodman, Olga Kurylenko, Robert Horry, John Salley, Alison Fishman, Eliza Dushku, Teresa Scanlan (Miss America 2011), Jamie Michelle, and more.
Just like what we have reported a few days earlier, Justin Bieber will be promoting a new robotic toy at the show. Each celebrity who will appear at the CES 2012 has his or her own product to promote. Rappers LL Cool J and 50 Cent, for example, will be promoting their music-related projects. Seeing the fact that the CES 2012 will feature many celebrities, including the famous Justin Bieber, we can be sure that the show will be a great success.
We all know that Justin Bieber love to spend his time at the beach. But recently, the young pop star spent his time at the beach in a slightly different way. Justin Bieber was spotted at Venice beach, California, wearing a golden mask. Did the disguise work? Well, a young man wearing a golden mask at the beach definitely attract people's attention, so if the young pop star didn't want to be seen, his disguise failed big time. However, the mask did cover his whole face, so people weren't able to see who the young man really was.
Anyway, the mask was just one of many funny stuff that Justin Bieber does during his spare time. The young pop star tweeted about it, saying: "i am the #masterofdisguise." You can check out the photo yourself to see how the young pop star looked like when he was wearing a golden mask at the beach.

Blu-ray Review: 'The Sacrament'
Ti West. Cult village. Horror. Nuff said. We're checking out the new to Blu-ray creep fest "The Sacrament" available August 19 from Magnolia Home Entertainment. The events at Eden Parish get reviewed below!
Title: "The Sacrament"
Grade: 4
Cast: AJ Bowen, Joe Swanberg, Gene Jones
Director: Ti West
Rating: R
Runtime: 99 minutes
Release Company: Magnolia Home Entertainment
Website: www.magpictures.com
The Flick: Much like I said in the theatrical review, filmmaker Ti West just keeps getting better and better with every film. "The Sacrament" is yet another example of the accomplished cinematic palate of West and even with its so-so found footage angle still manages to be extremely effective. Plus the cast from West regulars AJ Bowen and Joe Swanberg as the team investigating the not-what-it-seems cult to Amy Seimetz as the influenced host all provide a little extra realism. But it's the scene stealing work by cult leader Father, played with creepy charisma by Gene Jones, that brings this horror of this one home. So compelling, so riveting and so magnetic is Jones's work that by the end the audience almost goes along with him. Almost.
Best Feature: Loved the doc 'Working with the Director: The Ti West Experience' where folks on the cast and crew talk about working alongside the newest horror auteur.
Best Hidden Gem: Again, the power of Gene Jones is enough to make anyone drop ship and follow. But I have a full on Ti West cover complaint. "House of the Devil" came in a cool VHS clamshell version and "The Innkeepers" in a collectable LP case with the one-sheet poster. What's with the bland and basic blu-ray cover for this flick – collectable rip off!
Worth the Moola: Great tension, great horror, great performances and all under the ample and watchful eye of Hitchcock-ian style filmmaker Ti West – pledge to own this one! (If there is no cool box coming!)

Linkin Park frontman Chester Bennington has teamed with Etnies sneakers to launch a new line of shoes called Club Tattoo. The line is named after Bennington's string of Phoenix area tattoo shops which he opened in 1995.
"I'm really excited about the collaboration because it gives us a chance to blend our mutual passion for art, body and lifestyle in a unique way," Bennington said in a statement. "Etnies and Club Tattoo live what we do, love what we do and together we've created a perfect connection between body art and street style."
He then added, "Plus, this way I can make even more money for not having to really work that hard."
[Actually I added that…sorry]
The new Linkin Park album, Minutes to Midnight, hits stores on May 15. The band will launch another Projekt Revolution tour this summer in support of the album, with My Chemical Romance rumored to be on board.

Many patients with metastatic, castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) experience disease progression during or following first-line docetaxel therapy; until recently, second-line treatment approaches have been limited. Within the last 2 yr, novel therapies able to prolong survival in the postdocetaxel setting have emerged, including the novel semisynthetic taxane cabazitaxel. Cabazitaxel has the ability to overcome taxane resistance in vitro and in vivo and has demonstrated activity in docetaxel-sensitive and docetaxel-resistant cell lines and tumor models [1]. In addition, unlike docetaxel and paclitaxel, cabazitaxel has demonstrated the ability to cross the blood–brain barrier and may be effective in patients with cerebral or spinal cord metastases.
The randomized, multinational, phase 3 Treatment of Hormone-Refractory Metastatic Prostate Cancer Previously Treated with a Taxotere-containing Regimen (TROPIC) trial compared cabazitaxel with mitoxantrone in patients with mCRPC previously treated with a docetaxel-containing regimen [2]. A total of 755 patients were randomized to cabazitaxel (25
Progression-free survival (PFS) was doubled in the cabazitaxel arm compared to mitoxantrone (2.8 mo vs 1.4 mo; HR 0.74; p
In the TROPIC trial, the percentage of patients who discontinued treatment due to adverse events (AEs) was 18% in the cabazitaxel group compared to 8% in the mitoxantrone group [2]. Grade ≥3 AEs in both treatment arms were primarily hematologic, with neutropenia (82% vs 58%), leucopenia (68% vs 42%), and febrile neutropenia (8% vs 1%) being higher with cabazitaxel compared to mitoxantrone (Table 1). The most common grade ≥3 nonhematologic AEs with cabazitaxel compared to mitoxantrone were diarrhea (6% vs <1%), fatigue (5% vs 3%), and asthenia (5% vs 2%). The rate of mortality within 30 d of last drug infusion was 5% in the cabazitaxel arm, compared with 2% in the mitoxantrone arm. However, close examination of the study data show that most of the mortality related to AEs occurred early in the trial and may be due, in part, to the inexperience of the participating centers regarding proactive management of neutropenia, neutropenic fever, diarrhea, and other AEs. The importance of adequate patient care to optimize treatment benefits was highlighted by a subanalysis limited to TROPIC centers in France and Germany [6] and [7]. With proactive management of side effects, the discontinuation rate due to AEs was lower with cabazitaxel than in the global study population (11% vs 18%) and there was no toxic death, resulting in a greater survival benefit versus mitoxantrone (+3.7 mo vs +2.4 mo) [6].

To examine the tolerability of cabazitaxel in daily clinical use, a German Compassionate Use Program (CUP) was implemented and enrolled patients with mCRPC who would have met the eligibility criteria for the TROPIC trial [7]. Patients received prednisone plus cabazitaxel until disease progression, death, unacceptable toxicity, or physician's decision. Prophylactic granulocyte-colony stimulating factor was recommended, per American Society of Clinical Oncology guidelines, in patients with preexisting risk factors for neutropenia. An awareness program focused on proactive management of AEs related to cabazitaxel was also implemented. While the types of AEs observed in the German CUP were similar to those seen in the TROPIC trial, the percentage of patients who discontinued treatment due to AEs was only 8% in the CUP compared to 18% in the TROPIC trial [2] and [7]. The frequency of grade ≥3 hematologic AEs in the CUP was also lower than that observed in the TROPIC trial, including leucopenia (11%), neutropenia (7%), and febrile neutropenia (4%) (Table 2) [7]. These results reinforce the importance of implementation of prophylactic and therapeutic strategies to address AEs and prevent therapy discontinuation.

In addition to cabazitaxel, abiraterone acetate is also approved for the postdocetaxel setting, based on the phase 3 COU-AA-301 trial demonstrating a significant OS benefit (14.8 mo vs 10.9 mo; HR: 0.65; p
The importance of disease characteristics in therapy selection was illustrated by the French Abiraterone compassionate use study that showed a Gleason score of 8–10 was associated with a poor response [8]. In addition, a retrospective analysis of patients with mCRPC enrolled in clinical trials demonstrated that patients who progressed to mCRPC quickly after primary androgen-deprivation therapy (ADT) (<16 mo) had a poor PSA response and a short PFS with secondary hormonal therapies such as abiraterone, estrogens, or MDV3100 (enzalutamide) [9]. The magnitude of response to prior docetaxel is also important when considering second-line therapy. In a study of 44 patients with mCRPC treated with first-line docetaxel followed by abiraterone, none of the seven patients who discontinued docetaxel due to disease progression (those considered to have docetaxel-refractory disease) demonstrated a PSA, radiologic, or clinical response to abiraterone [10]. In contrast, a recent post hoc analysis of the TROPIC trial showed that the OS benefit associated with cabazitaxel was consistent in the 63% of patients (n
When selecting second-line therapy, the potential for cross resistance should also be considered. In vitro studies suggest that one mechanism of action for taxanes is inhibition of microtubule-dependent, androgen-receptor (AR) translocation to the nucleus, impairing AR signaling and reducing PSA expression [12]. Abiraterone impairs AR signaling by reducing CYP17-dependent androgen production, as well as directly binding to AR and reducing AR signaling in a dose-dependent manner [13]. This raises concerns regarding the potential for cross resistance between microtubule inhibitors and hormonal therapies such as abiraterone, based on the hypothesis that use of AR-signaling inhibitors may impair the ability of taxanes to subsequently inhibit this pathway. In a phase 1/2 trial of 54 patients with abiraterone-pretreated CRPC, 35 patients who received subsequent docetaxel at disease progression demonstrated a median OS of 12.5 mo [14]. In contrast, a median OS of 18.9 mo was observed for docetaxel administered every 3 wk in the phase 3 TAX327 trial [15]. Additionally, patients receiving cabazitaxel in the TROPIC trial achieved a median OS of 29.4 mo from the first dose of docetaxel [16]. This issue is further complicated by recently presented interim results from the phase 3 COU-AA-302 trial comparing abiraterone to placebo in patients with asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic chemotherapy-naïve mCRPC [17]. Abiraterone significantly improved radiographic PFS (not reached vs 8.3 mo; HR: 0.43; p
In summary, selection of second-line therapy beyond docetaxel and sequencing of therapies in patients with progressive mCRPC should be based on careful evaluation of disease characteristics. In patients likely to poorly respond to abiraterone (eg, high Gleason score, rapid progression to CRPC with primary ADT, or progression during docetaxel therapy), cabazitaxel might be the first option in the second-line setting. For patients with less-aggressive mCRPC, cabazitaxel and abiraterone are reasonable treatment options. In addition to these newer agents, rechallenge with docetaxel may still have a place in the second-line treatment for patients with mCRPC who have a very good response to first-line docetaxel and relapse >6 mo after having stopped docetaxel [18] and [19]. Further research and clinical trials are needed to identify the optimal sequencing of therapies, patient-selection strategies, and potential biomarkers for mCRPC. Results from these studies will continue to shape the way we make treatment recommendations and improve individualization of therapy.

2014 Dodge Durango in San Antonio, TX
A highway favorite has gotten an upgrade to make its performance stronger, bolder and more efficient than ever before. The 2014 Dodge Durango in San Antonio TX is equipped with a new transmission, fresh appearance and a variety of impressive technology features. Delivering a drive that's even more hardworking than its predecessor's, the all-new Durango is going to give drivers even more resilience on the road.
The 2014 Dodge Durango has a lot in store for San Antonio drivers. Equipped with two strong powertrain options, the Durango maximizes its power while offering class-leading efficiency. When powered by the award-winning 3.6-liter Pentastar V-6 engine, the vehicle generates a standard 290 horsepower or 295 horsepower in the Rallye model. Add on the vehicle's new eight-speed transmission and the Durango can achieve up to an EPA-estimated 25 mpg highway. Step it up with the 5.7-liter HEMI V-8 engine and the Durango churns out a best-in-class 360-horsepower performance. When the vehicle's dual Variable Valve Timing (VVT) and Fuel Saver Technology work in conjunction with new eight-speed transmission, the Durango also earns a best-in-class 23 mpg highway V-8 fuel economy.
Best-in-class strength in the 2014 Dodge Durango
The 2014 Dodge Durango was designed to do the heavy lifting so drivers wouldn't have to. The SUV's impressive powertrain options and toned muscle make for a drive more capable than any driver thought possible.
The Durango delivers best-in-class efficiency and power with its capable V-8, but whether the vehicle is packed with its V-6 or V-8 engine, the Durango provides best-in-class towing capacity. When equipped with the Pentastar V-6, the Durango can haul up to 6,200 pounds. When the HEMI V-8 is employed, the vehicle can tow up to 7,400 pounds. Drivers are able to take their adventures wherever the road leads without having to leave anything behind. To ensure a fully packed ride is safe, the Durango utilizes standard Trailer Sway Control, which applies the brakes and adjusts the throttle to reduce sway and maintain stability under any driving condition.
New features in the 2014 Dodge Durango
In addition to the vehicle's new eight-speed transmission, it also received a few new features that make its performance more capable and convenient for drivers.
While the Durango's performance earned a significant upgrade to its powertrain that allows it to create a stronger, more efficient ride, it also received a boost in its appearance and interior technology. The vehicle maintains its bold Durango exterior while also gaining a sleeker body shape. The automaker strived to deliver a fuel-efficient performance that didn't mean sacrificing style or muscle, so it created an exterior that balances its distinct muscular shape and aerodynamic detailing. The Durango also got an upgrade in the technology department. The crossover SUV has added the available 8.4-inch touchscreen display and rear-seat Blu-ray player to its repertoire, which gives drivers even more functionality and connectivity on the road. Test drive the all-new Dodge Durango at Ingram Park CDJ today.

An Ugly Attack on Mormons
The easiest targets for an organized campaign against religious freedom of conscience.
By Jonah Goldberg
Did you catch the political ad in which two Jews ring the doorbell of a nice working-class family? They barge in and rifle through the wifes purse and then the mans wallet for any cash. Cackling, they smash the daughters piggy bank and pinch every penny. We need it for the Wall Street bailout! they exclaim.
No? Maybe you saw the one with the two swarthy Muslims who knock on the door of a nice Jewish family and then blow themselves up?
No? Well, then surely you saw the TV ad in which two smarmy Mormon missionaries knock on the door of an attractive lesbian couple. Hi, were from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints! says the blond one with a toothy smile. Were here to take away your rights. The Mormon zealots yank the couples wedding rings from their fingers and then tear up their marriage license.
As the thugs leave, one says to the other, That was too easy. His smirking comrade replies, Yeah, what should we ban next? The voice-over implores viewers: Say no to a church taking over your government.
Obviously, the first two ads are fictional because no one would dare run such anti-Semitic or anti-Muslim attacks.
The third ad, however, was real. It was broadcast throughout California on Election Day as part of the effort to rally opposition to Proposition 8, the initiative that successfully repealed the right to same-sex marriage in the state.
What was the reaction to the ad? Widespread condemnation? Scorn? Rebuke? Tepid criticism?
The Los Angeles Times, a principled opponent of Proposition 8, ran an editorial lamenting that the hard-hitting commercial was too little, too late.

Yet Mormons call fundamentalistMormons "non-Mormons" if they DO believe in D&C 132? Imagine that. (What a strange & topsy-turvy world that is)
Also, as far as the saved by grace argument, how do you explain the "faith without works is dead" scriptures & the like?

And then finally, please explain how your interpretations are correct while in direct contradiction w/ other Christian religions who read the same Bible & believe in the same God.
Very good post.
A cult cannot be in control unless it can have power over its members - hence, the Grace of Christ's sacrifice "gets in the way."
In what universe is that?
I wonder if I will receive an apology from you - I won't be holding my breath....Read post #21. (which was my very first post on this thread).
Oh shoot, and you must have also missed post #111. You're slipping DU. I thought you had much better reading comprehension skills.
You're Mormon - why don't you tell us?
Your post is right out of Elsie's "Mormon Guide to Distract the Argument" and your post is:
"You Play Defense For Awhile!"
So between the time that Hippolytus died in 236 and the Council at Nicea in 325 AD the view of the church swung from three entities acting as one God to one God made up of three manifestations. This is really not a HUGE change when you think about it, but it has many important ramifications.Also note that I am not just quoting "Mormon Scripture" in these sections, I link to Catholic enclyclopedia on-line for most of this, and other on line references for the rest.
No, he made a comment. I was asking him to explain that comment. Are the questions too hard to answer? You constantly ask Mormons to explain their beliefs, which we do on a regular basis. When we ask for you to explain your beliefs, all you can do is come up with "You Play Defense For Awhile!"?
I would think you would be proud of your beliefs & be willing to explain them rather than hide behind some nebulous guide to distract the argument.
There are lurkers here that not only look for our explanations, but yours as well. I asked questions. I would think they would be relatively easy to answer. Plain & simple.
OK - you "made a comment" too. I haven't read every post on the thread, but I read yours. Explain "After All You Can Do" vis a vis the Grace of Christ and His words "It is Finished - John 19:30" for me.
Is that too hard?
You constantly ask Mormons to explain their beliefs, which we do on a regular basis.
No you do not!
You call every critic a "bigot" or a "hater", you contradict scripture, deny Mormon heresy, and then point fingers.
When we ask for you to explain your beliefs, all you can do is come up with You Play Defense For Awhile!?
You are reacting to me calling BS with your post. Now, you multiply the error.
I would think you would be proud of your beliefs & be willing to explain them rather than hide behind some nebulous guide to distract the argument.
You bet.
Ravi is a friend of mine.
Here is what I believe:
Ravi Zacharias - The Existence of God
Ravi reached out to the Mormon church, and spoke in Salt Lake. The leaders of Mormonism cynically used his appearance to try and justify their power. They reminded me of Pharisees in Christ's time.
There are lurkers here that not only look for our explanations, but yours as well. I asked questions. I would think they would be relatively easy to answer. Plain & simple.
You don't only "ask questions" as an innocent lamb, so drop that defense. You are a Defender of Mormonism, and it cannot be logically defended.
Let me put a stake in your argument. Joe Smith (your "prophet") took sexual pleasure in wives of men who followed him who were married to these same women!
If you are so blind to follow that - then you deserve your fate.
That may be, but there are Mormons in California. Their participation is as legitimate as the NRA, the AARP, or any other advocacy group. Perhaps unusual only in the sense that it's coming directly from a religious group, rather than an affinity group.
> As a mason, I will say he boldly stole the fraternity initiation and turned it into a religion.
> Pretty crappy thing to do to the fraternity for many reasons. Not only an oath-breaker, but continues to tar the fraternity with people who think it is a religion.
I guess I need to respond to this on two levels.
As a Mason I am bitterly disappointed that Brother Joseph Smith thought our Masonic birthright to be something that he could treat cheaply and shabbily.
You and I both swore the same Obligations that he did: in his case he probably took the Antient Obligation — something not to be taken lightly. And it would appear that he broke those Obligations, if I am to believe this material (I do).
Crikey! On a Masonic level Joseph Smith would be a wilfully perjured individual, void of all moral worth and totally unfit to be received into any warranted Lodge or society of men who prize honor and virtue above the external advantages of rank and fortune.
To say nothing of the Antient penalties.
I do not know of any Mormons who are active Freemasons: there are none in my Lodge. I do not doubt that there must be some in the wider Brotherhood. If so, it must be somewhat embarrassing for them!
There would be no barrier to them joining, naturally, because they believe in God.
My response to this as a Christian is that I need to leave the judging of Joseph Smith to God. Not for nothing does Jesus advise us not to take Oaths: I believe it is because doing so can make you obligated in ways that can make your Christian walk difficult.
I have no difficulty keeping my Masonic oaths, but obviously Joseph Smith did. And by promising to keep secrets that he did not keep, he bore false witness.
The Jews were singled out for torture, and even one of the morticians said he was horrified when he had to view the bodies.
The people who answered "Christian" were slaughtered. If they answered "Mormon" the terrorists would have (maybe) thought they were Christian, but definitely not Muslim, so they would have been safe. BUT - that kind of judgment means the Judges were more ignorant than potted plants.
I am sure the Muslim murderers "hated." It wasn't even "righteous."
It still remains, however, that Mormonism is a cult that has distorted scripture and must be opposed. It is not the Truth, and never has been. It is enslaving people to Hell, and to empower it is evil, wicked, and terrible.
> Iff'n you ain't a SLC based believer in the BoM and some of the Bible and the D&C's and the Living Prophet®, then you AIN'T a 'real' MORMON and do NOT try to pass yerself OFF as one!
1) I don't take orders from you, Elsie
2) I defy you to show me where I have ever claimed to be a Mormon
3) I expect your apology
I'm not saying the Mormons in California don't have a right to get involved. I was commenting on the fact that the majority of out-of-state money that was involved was from Utah, and it was a lot of money. Those Mormons in Utah that got involved, whether financially (donations) or through other means, would probably not have been happy if millions of dollars poured in from California to fight or support a proposition in Utah.
I'm sure they wouldn't be pleased. Few activists for any cause embrace their oppositions tactice. This entire thread has gotten away from the topic, a blatently anti-Mormon ad. Internet, what can you do, but shame on the stations that ran it.
Yes, but he is only one God among many. Perhaps even you will join him some day. Pride=wanting to be like God.
I never said it was. I said the world hates righteousness.
>>While I suppose its possible the discussion here pleases Mormons, my suspicion it that a politically conservative Mormon unfamiliar with the site reading the reaction to these ads isnt anxious to sign up.<<
You've got that right.
And taken out of context by those looking to hurt FR.
If someone looking up glass confessionals on a Google search, came upon the thread where the Catholic practice of confessing to a priest was questioned in the second reply, I suspect, that person would not come back.
Thank you.
Mormonism is not Biblical by any means. It's not a matter of interpretation. They follow Joseph Smith and HIS version of the Bible, which is ungodly to say the least. They don't believe in the Trinity either, from what I have gathered from remarks here. To them, Jesus is satan's half-brother. Does that sound biblical to you?
The truth is not "un-Christian."
Well, I kinda figured she didn't...
thank you. I appreciate that. M
If we took the religious and homosexual aspect out of the debate, it'd be interesting to see how people feel about a lot of money coming from out of state that is targeted towards influencing another state's proposition/elections.
So you are saying that if I ask questions and don't follow the lds chant I do not get another chance.
Huh? My uncle the bishop says all I have to do is be a good person and I'll get a second chance.
Oh well.
Yes, and yes.
On the out of state issue though, while I see your point, national advocacy groups are a fact of life. If you tried to regulate them, they'd simply function through subsidiaries on a state level. Which most have anyway.
Better it's in the open, and if the gays want to criticize the LSD or Catholic Church, fine. If they're over the top, we can criticize them (when we can get a word in edgewise), when they interrupt services or trespass they should be arrested. And however unpopular it might be, the Churchs involved should be involved in prosecution.
I was once engaged to a nationally known violist. According to her, she was about the only non-queer member of the symphony.
Why the PervsR'Us crowd came to so dominates the arts scene has always escaped me. But, knowing what she told me, I can see why being discovered to have not supported the "Queer Qrowd" might make retention of a prominent position in the arts a wee bit of a problem.
"What we are seeing after Proposition 8 is another thing entirely. This sounds like its building towards an anti-Mormon pogrom."
Please! Do preface such posts with a keyboard alert.
Your post got me to thinking about what a war between the Mormons and the Poofters would look like. Too hilarious for words.
You then state that we do not explain our beliefs & yet if anyone were to do a search on my posts, or Delphiuser, or most other Mormons that post here re: our beliefs, one would find your assertion to be quite erroneous. You then state that I call every critic a bigot or hater. Perhaps you can post excerpts of my posts where I call every critic a bigot or hater.
Lastly, I am an unapologetic defender of Mormonism & believe it is actually very logically defended. I would imagine you believe in your church & probably defend it vs. those not of your faith or beliefs as well. Not sure what your problem is there.
Your fallacious attacks on Joseph Smith have been gone over ad naseum here in prior threads as well as Delphiuser's very cogent response in this thread.
I feel bad for the anger you have. It seems to virtually consume you. That's a shame. The liberals & MSM paint Christians as loons & zealots. With that being said, is it any wonder why when a minority of Christians here do the same thing to Mormons that they bemoan others do to them?
Again I would ask you, if you truly believe in your take on the scriptures, what makes your beliefs & interpretations right & others wrong? We're not the only Christians that have differences w/ your take. If you're correct, tell us why you're correct & why many others(i.e. non-Mormons)are wrong. If you choose to use the red herring that this is just a diversionary tactic, we will just conclude you don't have an answer.
Despite your angst against me & others here of my faith, I sincerely wish you the very best & hope you have a great Christmas season. It's a great time of year to reflect on all of our blessings & what Christ has done for all of us. You, me, & everyone. Cheers my FRiend.
And by the early Christians:
Saint Irenaeus
- Do we cast blame on him [God] because we were not made gods at our beginning, but first we were made men, then, in the end, gods?
- How then will any be a god, if he has not first been made a man?
- Our Lord Jesus Christ, the Word of God, of his boundless love, became what we are that he might make us what he himself is.
(the above quotes taken from: Henry Bettenson, The Early Christian Fathers: A Selection from the Writings of the Fathers from St. Clement of Rome to St. Athanasius (London: Oxford University Press, 1956)
Clement of Alexandria
- Yea, I say, the Word of God became a man so that you might learn from a man how to become a god.
Clement of Alexandria, Exhortation to the Greeks, 1.[
- if one knows himself, he will know God, and knowing God will become like God. . . . His is beauty, true beauty, for it is God, and that man becomes a god, since God wills it.
Clement of Alexandria, Clement of Alexandria, The Instructor, 3.1 see also Clement, Stromateis, 23
Justin Martyr
- [in the beginning men] were made like God, free from suffering and death, and that they are thus deemed worthy of becoming gods and of having power to become sons of the highest
Justin Martyr, Dialogue with Trypho, 124.
Athanasius, bishop of Alexandria
- The Word was made flesh in order that we might be enabled to be made gods. . . . Just as the Lord, putting on the body, became a man, so also we men are both deified through his flesh, and henceforth inherit everlasting life.
Athanasius, Against the Arians, 1.39, 3.39.
- He became man that we might be made divine.
Athanasius, On the Incarnation, 54.
Augustine of Hippo
- But he himself that justifies also deifies, for by justifying he makes sons of God. For he has given them power to become the sons of God [John 1:12]. If then we have been made sons of god, we have also been made gods.
Augustine, On the Psalms, 50:2.
Then you have more modern theologians teaching the same idea and acknowledging deification was part of early Christianity...
C. S. Lewis, The Weight of Glory
It is a serious thing to live in a society of possible gods and goddesses, to remember that the dullest and most uninteresting person you talk to may one day be a creature which, if you saw it now, you would be strongly tempted to worship.
C. S. Lewis, Mere Christianity
The command Be ye perfect is not idealistic gas. Nor is it a command to do the impossible. He is going to make us into creatures that can obey that command. He said (in the Bible) that we were gods and He is going to make good His words. If we let Him-for we can prevent Him, if we choose-He will make the feeblest and filthiest of us into a god or goddess, dazzling, radiant, immortal creature, pulsating all through with such energy and joy and wisdom and love as we cannot now imagine, a bright stainless mirror which reflects back to God perfectly (though, of course, on a smaller scale) His own boundless power and delight and goodness. The process will be long and in parts very painful; but that is what we are in for. Nothing less. He meant what He said
Westminister Dictionary of Christian Theology:
Deification (Greek Theosis) is for orthodoxy the goal of every Christian. Man, according to the Bible, is made in the image and likeness of God...it is possible for man to become like God, to become deified, to become God by grace. This doctrine is based on many passages of both O.T. and N.T. (Psalms 82: (81) .6; 2 Peter 1:4), and it is essentially the teaching both of St. Paul, though he tends to use the language of filial adoption (Romans 8:9-17, Galatians 4:5-7) and the fourth gospel (John 17:21-23).
William R. Inge, Archbishop of Canterbury:
God became man, that we might become God was a commonplace of doctrinal theology at least until the time of Augustine, and that deification holds a very large place in the writings of the fathers...We find it in Irenaeus as well as in Clement, in Athanasius as well in Gregory of Nysee. St. Augustine was no more afraid of deificari in Latin than Origen of apotheosis in Greek...To modern ears the word deification sounds not only strange but arrogant and shocking.
If you want to get the full reference for the quotes, they are at:
> The truth is not un-Christian.
Good. Then you should have no difficulty at all with this "Truth".
Mark 9
38 And John answered him, saying, Master, we saw one casting out devils in thy name, and he followeth not us: and we forbad him, because he followeth not us.
39 But Jesus said, Forbid him not: for there is no man which shall do a miracle in my name, that can lightly speak evil of me.
40 For he that is not against us is on our part.
Rather like the Mormons. Argue with Jesus if you like: He says that if they aren't against Him, they are for Him.
Hey, I didn't write the rules, I just try to obey them. Perhaps you may wish to do the same.
I bet you do.
And you cannot answer it.
Can you?
What is the point of me even reading the rest of your rebuttal?
Typical Mormon response.
"We cannot respond via fact - so there is therefore something Wrong with You!"

Nucking Futs and Bumper Nuts
Ravens vs Broncos
First Game of the 2013 Regular Football Season.
I never really cared one way or the other about the Baltimore Ravens until last year. Losing to the Ravens in the Playoffs created an instant distaste for those dirty birds.
A dude named Jacoby Jones ripped my heart out last season and I've never fully recovered…
Until now that is🙂
I'm not here to give you the stats of this game, there are folks who get paid to do that shit. I'm here to describe the feeling. As confident as Bronco fans wanted you to think we were going into this game, I believe each of us had just an inkling of doubt slingshoting around inside our heads. That little BB of doubt made me nervous because this was the first game of the NFL season and it was televised nationally with the entire country wondering/watching what the Broncos would do to try to even the score.
I like Joe Flacco about as much as I like gum stuck to my shoe.

Juan Cabrillo's first adventure with the Oregon-a state of the art spy ship disguised as a nondescript lumber hauler-takes him and his crew into dangerous waters, as they try to put Tibet back in the hands of the Dalai Lama by striking a deal with the Russians and the Chinese.
Cabrillo's gambling chip is a golden Buddha containing records of vast oil reserves in the disputed land. But first, he'll have to locate-and steal-the all-important artifact. And there are… (more)

Wow! I got one on the first try/day!
The French Conniption! LOL!
Without any further clues, my first rough guess is Steinbeck's "Travels with Charlie: In Search of America."
And now I'm craving some Simon and Garfunkel…
♪♪ Michigan seems like a dream to me now
It took me four days to hitchhike from Saginaw
I've gone to look for America…
Or the French Connection. Gene Hackman chasing a French drug dealer across NYC. Hey, he was peddling as much doggie doo as the poodle…
In the clearing stands a Boxer and his master by his side.
And a Retriever by his trade.
And he carries the ducks and geese
Of every hunt he's been on…
What's a 'conniption'?
As Caulfield's costume is supposed to represent "great literature themes," I'd say he's portraying Faust on his way home with the devil as a black poodle.
That is what I thought of, too.
Always thought Mephistopheles would be a great name for a black poodle.
No, I think Arianne called it right away.
"Travels with Charley."
Steinbeck's adventures, seeing America by camper truck, accompanied by his standard poodle.
Steinbeck would appeal to Caulfield… and that "costume" would be a direct representation, not an obscure metaphor.
From "The New Oxford Dictionary of English"
conniption noun (N. American informal)
a fit of rage or hysterics.
—origin mid 19th cent.: probably an invented word.
Pacopuddy, as Frazz is using it, it probably refers to the car/subway chase in the movie itself.
What's a 'conniption'?
Don't be so lazy. I know you can use for your keyboard:
I agree, probably Travels With Charlie…A great book..And yeah, it would be huge in Caufield's world…..Anybody who hasn't read his funny books, Tortilla Flat, Canary Row and Sweet Tuesday are missing out on three of the great joys of life…
"Travels with Charlie" – I agree.
"Travels with Charly" was the first thing I thought of. Only literature I remember that had a poodle in it.
And furthermore, didn't Caufield already do Faust a couple of years ago?
If I'm right about that, then I think it would be unlike him to repeat a book.
"The French Connection" was a book first…. albeit nonfiction and I'm not sure it would ever be classified as literature.

Management Game
The management game is an applied strategic management exercise where teams of students operate computer simulated companies for 2-3 years acting as senior management. Groups of students compete against each other in multiple countries as they try to add value to their companies. The class teaches competitive dynamics group management skills cross-functional management and presentation skills. The class is placed at the end of the required part of the MSIA curriculum and is intended to provide an illustration of how to apply the tools acquired in other required classes in a complex international business environment .
The class is unique in that students are evaluated primarily by external professionals. Each team reports to an external board of directors and must defend their plans and their outcomes to these people who then provide feedback and evaluate the teams performance. Each team is asked to negotiate a labor agreement with real union representatives and present their marketing plans to practicing marketing executives. Besides acting a senior managers the students act as individual investors buying and selling shares of the simulated companies in a real-time stock market. The external feedback and evaluation structure of the course makes the exercise sharply realistic and valuable and differentiates this class from any other in the curriculum.

When I was younger, it seemed that the world was divided into two kinds of wine drinkers: people like me, who aged wine for about as long as it took to get the bottle home from the store, and people with five-figure, temperature-controlled cellars showcasing thousands of pricey bottles. Short of winning the lottery, I knew I'd never be part of the second group.
But over the years, I've realized that most wine drinkers fall somewhere between these extremes. Thousands of wines are more than most people need or can afford, but a ready stock of, say, 20 to 40 bottles can make wine an easy part of your daily routine.
But which wines should you have? The kinds I'd suggest keeping on hand are somewhat different from the conventional collection. Instead of laying away X number of vintages of Bordeaux, Y number of Burgundies, and so on, buy for current drinking and real-life situations. I've included a list of categories below, but add your own. Keep at least one bottle on hand for each purpose.
8 wines to have on hand
It's Wednesday night, and you're having meatloaf. You might be surprised at how good an unfussy, inexpensive white wine can be: Adelsheim Pinot Gris 2002 (Oregon; $16) has a beautiful lemon-drop, vanilla, and spice character. If you like reds, try Hedges "CMS" 2000 (Columbia Valley, WA; $10), a mouth-filling blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Syrah.
When friends come by, the perfect wine is one that's easy to drink but has some panache. Muga Rioja Reserva 1999 (Rioja, Spain; $17) has the earthy sensuality of a Burgundy that costs four times as much.
Considered exotic just a decade ago, many fiery ethnic dishes are virtually mainstream now. A wine to have on hand as a partner: the super-fruity Georges Du Boeuf Beaujolais-Villages 2002 (Beaujolais, France; $8).
Whether it's prime rib or pot roast, meaty dishes need big wines. Try the intense, well-muscled Chappellet Napa Valley Merlot 2000 (Napa Valley; $26).
You don't need to wait for a raise; just getting to Friday night is a victory. It calls for Domaine Carneros by Taittinger Brut 1999 (Carneros, CA; $24) ― exquisite, refreshing, and full of frothy bubbles.
The need is self-explanatory. A hauntingly delicious option is Taylor Fladgate 20 Year Old Tawny Port (Douro Valley, Portugal; $45-$50). Brown sugar, honey, spices, and toffee all wrapped up into one mesmerizing flavor. (It's not cheap, but an opened bottle will last for months.)
Something generous but not ostentatious is good: Hamilton's "Stonegarden" Grenache/Shiraz 2000 (Barossa Valley, Australia; $17). An absolutely massive and velvety red, evocative of wild berries, cherry preserves, and eucalyptus.
You need a favorite variety to open on any whim. Try Annie's Lane Chardonnay 2002 (Clare Valley, Australia; $13). Just a hint of oak, with ripe apricot and melon flavors. Best to keep it chilled in the refrigerator, ready to go.

Leaking from the middle section. It does not matter what you try. You will lose a thrid on your coffee and in camping mode ... this is a serious loss of time and gaz :(
I hope we can find a solution or I will send it back to TKMAXX and get a refund ASAP. I have until 31/7/2015 to bring it back. Waiting for your feedback guys. Thanks.
Hi David,
Ah, that is definitely not ideal, we certainly would hate to lose a third of our coffee each morning. Ok, I've passed the message onto our customer services team and someone will be in touch shortly to get this resolved.
My apologies regarding this, hopefully we can have it sorted quickly for you!
I bought one of these on Sunday from Robert Dyers. I used it for the first time that evening and noticed it had a small hole in the bottom so once the water started to boil it leaked all over the stove. I took it back and after 15 of explaining the problem it was exchanged for a new one. Just tried the new one and that leaks coffee out of the middle section, the coffee taste great but it really does make a mess of the stove. As I said in the title, if you are lucky enough to get a good one, it's a great coffee maker.
Hi Andy,
Thanks for the review! The leak certainly doesn't sound ideal, if you give us an email on firstname.lastname@example.com we'll sort out getting you one that is leak-free.

There, Cotten found herself surrounded by music once again. Ruth, stepmother of famous folksinger and activist Pete Seeger, taught piano; Peggy and her brother Mike were learning guitar. The family patriarch, Charles Seeger, was a noted ethnomusicologist. While Ruth gave piano lessons, Cotten would borrow the family guitar and play.
One afternoon Peggy heard Cotten singing "Freight Train" and asked to learn it. At the time, Ruth was compiling a collection of children's folk songs and included one by Cotten. Encouraged, Cotten began to put together more new songs and, with the Seegers' help, began occasionally singing and playing in public.
In the mid-1950s, a grown-up Peggy Seeger sang "Freight Train" during a concert tour in England, and the song was soon recorded — without permission or credit — by a British singer. It became a hit in Britain, and the furor over the songwriting credit and royalties helped create a demand for Libba Cotten's music. Her first album, "Negro Folksongs and Tunes," was cut in 1958 on the Folkways label, which the Smithsonian Institution acquired in 1987.
Over the years, Cotten played concerts and was on the program at the 1964 and 1968 Newport Folk Festivals. But despite her success as a performer, she continued to work her "day job" as a housekeeper until the 1970s. She didn't reach the top of her career until her mid-80s, and she was in her early 90s when she won the Grammy Award for Best Folk Performance, only two years before her death in 1987.
Pete Seeger described Cotten's stage persona at one of her 1968 concerts: "She walked gravely to the microphone, sat down and started picking the guitar. It was a simple tune, and repeated itself over and over with only a few modest variations. But she did it superbly, effortlessly."
Many honors came to Cotten in the last 15 years of her life. In 1972 she received the Burl Ives Award for exceptional contributions to folk music. In 1984, as an innovator in the field of folk arts, she was made a National Heritage Fellow by the National Endowment for the Arts. She appears in the book I Dream a World, a collection of photographs of 75 influential African-American women. A year after her death, the Smithsonian honored Cotten by inducting one of her guitars into its collections at a special ceremony.
Mike Seeger once said that Cotten was "one of those people who's bigger than the tradition she represents." On recordings, her folksy, raspy alto and delicate guitar playing are reminiscent of a dear grandmother's serenade: the sound warm and familiar, yet of an era long gone.

Today, my psycho neighbor finished building a cannon. An honest-to-god, on-wheels, could-be-on-a-pirate-ship cannon. And now he's testing it in the forest by my house. I'm pretty scared for my life, to be honest. FML

Espresso Yourself
Utterly delicious. Utterly classy. Utterly caffeinated. The Espresso Martini is an eighties classic that packs a punch.
Utterly delicious. Utterly classy. The story goes that the Espresso Martini was invented by the legendary Dick Bradsell in the eighties. A famous model (some speculate the model in question was Kate Moss, others say it was Naomi Campbell) walked up and asked him to mix her a drink that would, "Wake me up and then fuck me up".
His solution (which we solute him for) was a combination of vodka, fresh, cold espresso, Kahlua and simple syrup, shaken into a frothy mix of bittersweet caffeinated addiction.
Buy a round for your friends (even the one who pronounces it 'expresso').
2 Parts Absolut Vodka
1 Part Kahlua
1 Part Espresso Coffee (Cold)
1/2 Part Simple Syrup
Fill a shaker with ice cubes. Add all ingredients. Shake and strain into a chilled cocktail glass.
Or watch for yourself below!

Qosidah/Qasidah lawas Nasida ria semarang vol..
Kosong-kosong Rahasia cantik menawan
Masjid yang tua Anakku
MasyaALLAH Langit dan bumi
Syurga di telapak kaki ibu Nasib Desaku
Ya Ramadhan Wartawan Ratu Dunia
Tiga perkara Air Zam-Zam
Maafkan anakku Damailah Palestina
Lingkungan hidup Seni Tradisional
Jagalah kehormatan mu Abad modern
Khitanan Bersyukurlah
Kota santri Bom nuklir
Indonesiaku Dunia makin cantik
Ingat hari depan Habibi
Bila langit mendung Sajadah merah
Jangan jual ginjalmu Asyik santai
Belajar mengaji Balada wali songo
Jangan main cerai Maafkan aku anak ku

browser compatibility problems. When I take a look at your web site in Safari, it
looks fine however when opening in Internet Explorer,
it has some overlapping issues. I just wanted to give you a quick heads
up! Besides that, great website!
