Customer Reviews:
Rated 4.7 out of 5�by 10 reviewers.
Rated 3 out of 5�by Ricardo Good Fit & Wicking of Sweat With Average Cushion If I had never owned Thorlo roll-top tennis socks ($13.99/pair), I'd probably give this product a higher rating. I was looking for a less expensive alternative to Thorlo, but have determined you get what you pay for. These FJ Pro-Dry socks were purchased for golf, but will instead be used for everyday wear & jogging. If your shoes are bought with enough room to wear a sock with lots of cushion, I recommend Thorlo; otherwise, these socks should make you happy. I did not notice shrinkage after washing & drying using medium heat setting.. That said, I've bought less expensive no-show socks that were just as good as these FJ Pro-Dry. If extra cushion is what you seek in a no-show, go with Thorlo roll-top tennis (prefer model w/ gold colored reinforcement in toe & heel, not blue or silver which had some shrinkage; I always buy the size large for my 8.5 shoe size).

Statement of Remembrance from USA Judo President Dr. Ron Tripp
At ground zero in New York City, the names of our neighbors lost in the 9-11 terrorist attacks were read and honored this morning - innocent victims of a senseless attack upon our great nation.
In this moment of great sadness USA Judo will remember our three heroes of this tragic event. Christian Reggenhard, Paul Pansini, and Jeremy Glick made the ultimate sacrifice in efforts to save the lives of others in the rubble of New York and on United Flight 93.
We are very proud that the USA Judo Medal of Honor, established in honor of them and awarded to these three men in 2001, serves to remind us of their personal courage and the character that our great sport instills in each of us.

Linguistic Field(s): Phonetics
Call Deadline: 01-Dec-2010
Meeting Description:
Today, advances in networking, computation and mass storage are promising a new revolution in phonetics research: a movement from the study of small, mostly artificial datasets to the analysis of published corpora of natural speech that are thousands of times larger. To welcome and promote this revolution, we are organizing a workshop on new tools and methods for Very-Large-Scale phonetics research, as part of a newly awarded NSF grant. The themes of the workshop include: integration of speech technology in phonetics studies (including software to facilitate teaching and research); variation and invariance in large speech corpora; and revisiting classic phonetic and phonological problems from the perspective of corpus phonetics.
The last day of the workshop (January 31st) is for those interested in discussing development of tools suitable for teaching acoustic-phonetic analysis to beginners while allowing smooth progression to efficient advanced research protocols. The aim is to capitalize on the strengths of existing freeware systems, losing none of their capabilities, while providing as unified a platform as possible for future development.
Call for Papers:
Note: The paper submission deadline has been extended until December 1, 2010
Authors of contributions on Very-Large-Scale phonetics may submit either extended abstracts or Interspeech-style papers (up to four pages) via the workshop website at
. In addition, those interested in participating in the freeware tools workshop on January 31st are warmly invited to apply by emailing speech.tools.workshop
gmail.com with an outline (less than 1000 words) of what you would like to contribute to the workshop, and (if you wish) other topics that you would like discussed.
Selected papers from the workshop will be published in a special issue of The Journal of Experimental Linguistics. A tutorial on forced alignment and the Penn Phonetics Lab Forced Aligner will also be provided prior to the workshop. Further details are available on the workshop website:

One of the issues that arose during last week's law and religion symposium (in the questions following Wim Decock's thorough and engaging paper on Leonardus Lessius' engagement of commercial affairs from the perspective of moral theology and philosophy) had to do with the understanding of the relationship between material pursuits and eternal salvation. In some way you might say that Lessius held to a view of commercial activity as a worthy expression of the stewardship responsibilities of human beings.
At the time I noted that one of the origins of this biblical idea is in a formulation found in Augustine, that temporal goods are given by God "under a most fair condition: that every mortal who makes right use of these goods suited to the peace of mortal men shall receive ampler and better goods, namely, the peace of immortality and the glory and honour appropriate to it, in an eternal life made fit for the enjoyment of God and of one's neighbor in God."
There is clearly a sense in which this could be taken in what the Reformed would consider a semi-Pelagian manner associated with Jesuits like Lessius. But I also note this passage from Augustine in my new book on Wolfgang Musculus, observing the continuities with it as understood by a variety of the early Reformers.

Louisiana lands an ultra on the levee
The Mississippi River levee is the course of a new ultra: the Rouge-Orleans. ...
Photo by Ben Benton
The Mississippi River levee is the course of a new ultra: the Rouge-Orleans, and the inaugural race was held last March.
"We had no trail ultras in Louisiana," says Rouge-Orleans race director Jeff Beck. "So my business partner, Denver Benton, and I decided to introduce one. Nobody had utilized the levee for a foot race, but, even though we have a lot of trails here, when most people do a long run, they go to the levee."
The point-to-point course hugs the Mississippi River, the longest river in the nation, and runners race atop the gravel and dirt levee, a sloping bell curve raised 15 to 20 feet above the surrounding area, 126.2 flat miles from Baton Rouge to New Orleans. You may run solo or on a relay team of two, three or six people.
The levee provides racers with an intimate glimpse of the Deep South, offering expansive views of barges and ships passing down the Mississippi, and an agricultural basin home to farmland, cypress trees, sugarcane fields, live oaks, swamps and trees dripping with Spanish Moss.
"It's beautiful. You're running alongside the river, through plantation areas, open cattle ranges and along with wild horses," says 2011 solo finisher Mark Hellenthal of Phoenix, Arizona. "And at night, the fog rolls off the river. I had done night runs before but nothing with such vast areas of emptiness as the Rouge-Orleans."
The only aid stations are at mile 25, 50, 75 and 105. To make it feel even more isolated, the race takes off in three waves—based on expected finishing times—starting at 7:30 p.m., so be prepared to potentially run many night-miles alone.
A Run through History
Most everything about Rouge-Orleans is steeped in history. The main cannons of the U.S.S. Kidd Battleship, a historic World War II destroyer moored beyond the levee, are fired to signal the start of the race, which ends at the popular Audubon Park, the former 18th-century plantation of Etienne de Boré, the father of the sugar industry in Louisiana and New Orleans' first mayor.

Topic: David Allen's Getting Things Done
Well, i sort of hopped on this bandwagon like two days ago.
I grabbed a seminar of David's; It's an 8 cd collection. I have since then
written all the things down that I need to get done. The next step is to apply action to each one of them.
I also purchased a very cool red, pocket-sized planner (sporting an Apple sticker.) I'm really excited about this.
Anyone else using the GTD methods?

Twenty years ago – 1993
Janet Seminatore was honored as the Fredonia Fire Department's Fire Prevention Volunteer of the Year during the annual awards ceremony. The event, held in the fire hall, was attended by more that 70 people. Presenting the award were Dale VanValkenburg and Mac McCoy, Fire Prevention Committee co-chairmen, and Fire Chief Julius Leone.
Thirty years ago – 1983
More than 100 participants walked in Sunday's five-mile CROP Walk in Westfield to raise money to help stop world hunger. This is the village's second year for the event and walkers raised over $2,700. The Rev. Edward McNulty, CROP committee member, stated he was pleased with the support of the project and the perseverance of the walkers who made most of the trek in a downpour of rain.
Forty years ago – 1973
While federal law forbids 18 year olds from purchasing pistols, they may be received as gifts and Chautauqua County Surrogate Judge Willard W. Cass Jr. said people 18 and over may now obtain pistol permit applications.
Fifty years ago – 1963
Frank Ryman Powell, son of Mr. and Mrs. Ryman Powell of Fredonia and a senior at New York State Veterinary College at Cornell University, received five separate awards from the college for 1963 – the highest academic average, best practical work, most interested, best case reports and most humane care.

If your dog suffers from bad breath or a dental disease, your veterinarian has probably recommended you start brushing its teeth. This task is easier said than done for most owners, but a few tricks can help.
Choose a time of day that works with your dog's established schedule. After a walk or other vigorous exercise may be a good time, since the dog will be tired and calm. You may also choose to get out the toothbrush right before a treat like a walk or a pet-friendly snack, since the canine will then associate the process with a reward, PetPlace.com reports.
Introduce your dog to the pet toothpaste by letting him have a taste. Then, give him another taste, this time running your fingers over his gums with it. Repeat this process once more, this time touching his mouth with the toothbrush, the news outlet reports. When you are brushing, focus on the gum line of the upper teeth, angling the bristles of the brush so they get under the gums. Work back to front, making small circles along the dog's gum line. Always reward with a treat after.
Even if you can't brush all of your dog's teeth in one sitting, you are still working to prevent dental disease. According to VCA Animal Hospitals, close to 80 percent of dogs over age 3 have some sort of periodontal or dental disease, even though few pets show obvious signs of it. There are no dog shots or vaccinations against this disease, so prevention is key.

tinroofrustedOffering that list is a great idea, more of us should do the same for our particular area. I don't live in a hotbed of great pizza (Albany, NY area), but I'm sure there are places nearby that I don't even know about. Just a couple of days ago I stopped in a place I have driven by hundreds if not thousands of times, only to discover that they make a great pizza, one of the best I've had locally in a long time.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Brief SummaryRead full entry
Description"Wagner's mastiff bat is considered endangered by the state of Florida, where habitat destruction and the use of pesticides may be contributing to its decline. It is a medium-sized bat with long, narrow wings. These bats leave their day roosts after dark and fly high, covering long distances quickly as they feed on insects. Eumops glaucinus is a freetailed bat. Like other bats in the family Molossidae, its tail extends beyond the tail membrane, or uropatagium (the skin that stretches between the back legs)."

The Schwarzwaldstube at Hotel Traube Tonbach has been attracting food lovers from all over the world for decades – Harald Wohlfahrt wows guests with his highly pared-down haute cuisine.
Three Michelin stars have been twinkling above the Schwarzwaldstube at Hotel Traube Tonbach in Baiersbronn since 1992 without losing any of their brilliance. On the contrary, Harald Wohlfahrt's virtuoso food is now more subtle and more assured than ever. Wohlfahrt's little strokes of genius – his talents for turning apparently simple dishes into unforgettable gastronomic experiences – provide moments that will be remembered years down the line. His cuisine is centred on the highest-quality ingredients, prepared in ways that retain their character and allow them to develop the full spectrum of their natural flavour. Rather than creating structural works of art on the plate, Wohlfahrt restricts himself to just a few accents and lets the food speak for itself.
At first glance, for example, his marinated frog's legs in tempura with avocado and coriander dip seem unspectacular, but the first bite reveals how his perfectly judged tempura allows the tender succulence of the frog's legs to chime brilliantly with the slightly iodine taste of the finest veal – everything else is incidental. We kneel in reverence! Equally sensational is his stuffed red mullet with nori seaweed on a light escabeche bouillon and caper pesto, in which the underlying mediterranean trilogy cannot be bettered – this is the ultimate in produce-centred cuisine. Stéphane Gass's outstanding wine expertise and David Bräuer's impeccable service make dining at the Schwarzwaldstube a gastronomic experience which is well worth the trip.

Gantry Plaza State Park is a 12-acre riverside oasis that boasts spectacular views of the midtown Manhattan skyline, including the Empire State Building and the United Nations. Enjoy a relaxing stroll along the park's four piers or through the park's manicured gardens and unique mist fountain. Along the way take a moment to admire the rugged beauty of the park's centerpieces - restored gantries. These industrial monuments were once used to load and unload rail car floats and barges; today they are striking reminders of our waterfront's past. With the city skyline as a backdrop and the gantries as a stage, the park's plaza is a wonderful place to enjoy a spring or summer concert. Recreational facilities include basketball courts, playgrounds, handball courts, and a fishing pier with its own cleaning table.
Cooking grills of any kind and cooking are prohibited in the Park at all times.
Leashed dogs are permitted in the Garden area near the South Gantry, the Plaza area in front of the Gantries and on Pier 1 from 8 AM to 10 PM. Please clean up after your pet.
There is a dog run available on the corner of 48th Ave. and Vernon Blvd. Pets are prohibited where indicated by sign.

It would have been hard to predict how John Gregorek's career as a Lion would turn out based on the way it began.
The native of Seekonk, Massachusetts, who ran cross country and both indoor and outdoor track all four years, was poised to do great things before he even arrived at Columbia—he had a stellar high school record, and both his parents were world-class runners.
In his first two years, though, Gregorek struggled to meet those expectations and was often beset by injuries. But persistence was one of the harrier's best qualities, according to cross country and track and field head coach Willy Wood.
"He was never running the times we thought he was quite capable of, but through that time, never once was he negative, never once did he not work as hard as he could, never once did he waver in terms of his loyalty to the program," Wood said.
In time, Gregorek became one of the program's best assets. In his senior year, he broke the storied four-minute mile mark at indoor Heps (thanks to the time adjustment resulting from Dartmouth's flat track), was selected to run the prestigious Wanamaker Mile, and was named first-team All-American in the indoor mile.
His favorite memory, though, was leading the Lions to an Ivy title in cross country last fall, reclaiming the trophy they won in 2009 from the Princeton Tigers, who won it in the three intervening years.
"Freshman year, I wouldn't even have dreamed of being on the team that ran at Heps," Gregorek said. But as he and his teammates got faster, they also developed more faith in themselves. "Senior year, we were like, 'We can do this, we can beat these guys, we have the confidence.' It was so cool just to beat Princeton and get to be a part of something bigger."
Reflecting on his career as a Lion, Gregorek recalled not only the highs—the thrill of winning Heps—but also the lows—the embarrassment of being lapped in the 3,000 meters and finishing third-to-last his sophomore year, or the frustration resulting from the cross country team's inability to capitalize on its Heps win at NCAAs his senior year.
"The lows are just as much a part of the process," he said. After a bad meet, "if you're that upset about it, it drives you that much more moving forward. I think that going into indoor and outdoor, that cross country disappointment—we just fed off of it."
Gregorek has found a real community among his teammates, anchored by their daily meals at John Jay.
"Five o'clock, everyone goes in and sits down. No matter where anyone was during the day, 95 percent of the team is there. It's like a family dinner," he said. "Everyone goes over their days, everyone's telling stories, everyone's cracking up—that's irreplaceable."
His coaches said he's been able to channel those friendships into success on the track.
"He's a true teammate—he runs for other people," Wood said. "Any situation he's in where he feels like somebody else would benefit from his performance, he always runs significantly better."
"He's found that fine line of being relaxed and having fun, but when we get to the start of the line, he wants to kill," assistant coach Will Boylan-Pett, CC '05, said. "You look at him, you think he's a goofy, have-fun kind of guy, but when he gets to the line there's a different person that comes out. You can be alienating if you're like that all the time, and he found a way to just channel that when it needs to be done."
In the end, it was his teammates that made Gregorek choose Columbia.
"When I came here on my recruiting trip, I just knew that the Columbia guys were so much closer and so much more committed to each other than any other team I saw," he said. "I'm thankful that I did it."

The Olympic Alphabet
Even those who are a part of what is called the "Olympic Movement" can be easily bewildered by the array of initials and acronyms used as a common element of the Olympic language. Here's a very quick primer.
The movement's mother ship is the IOC (International Olympic Committee). While it is an actual committee of 105 individuals, each accountable to no one and run by a large staff in Lausanne, Switzerland, its movement is made up of two basic constituent groups:
<!--[if !supportLists]-->· <!--[endif]-->The National Olympic Committees (NOC) of each country. There were 204 of these that had teams marching into the Opening Ceremony. Ours is the US Olympic Committee (USOC).
<!--[if !supportLists]-->· <!--[endif]-->The International Federations (IF) for each of the Olympic Sports. There are 28 of these that are in the summer Games and 7 in the winter Games. The one that governs our sports is the International Canoe Federation (ICF).
Each Olympic Games is put together by an organizing committee. Those of you who were involved with Atlanta in 1996 will remember ACOG. Here we deal, usually not very satisfactorily with BOCOG (Beijing Organizing Committee for Olympic Games).
This only scratches the surface, but you get the idea. My personal favorite here in China is BOB. It's not uncommon to hear a comment from one of our NBC partners (there's another one!) along of the lines of "BOB screwed up again" or "BOB failed to get a good shot of that one".
BOB is Beijing Olympic Broadcasting. BOB provides all the video of the Olympic events to NBC and the other national broadcast rights holders, who then edit and add their own commentary. BOB, like many of us here in Beijing, is a very busy fellow.

I was able to find a local place today that was able to make me a steel plate to my exact specs, so had to try making a couple pizzas on it. Got one for my dad too, he made these dough's yesterday following Lehmann's recipe.
Instead of pulling out the steel to make bread, what you can do is use a terra-cotta planter to bake the bread on. You can get them all different shapes and sizes, so feel free to be creative with it. The terra-cotta will slow down the heat transmission to a workable level for bread.
Colin, are you sure this is 1/2" steel plate?

Today there is widespread hesitancy among many evangelical leaders to criticize the claims of charismatic theology. While many of these leaders are not charismatics themselves, they are open and sympathetic to the supernatural claims prevalent in the movement.
In the following video, John MacArthur speaks to genuine believers who subscribe to that open-but-cautious perspective on the charismatic movement. He also addresses the need for all believers to exercise biblical discernment.
Being reluctant to criticize charismatic theology may seem like a safe, middle-ground approach for noncharismatic leaders. But as John pointed out, their silence has given cover to false teachers.
One of the goals of the Strange Fire conference is to awaken open-but-cautious believers to that reality, and encourage them to be strong voices of discernment. For more information about Strange Fire, visit the conference website.

We are long down the road for the need of this conference. I hope many of the silent, fence straddlers will listen to the audio since space is unavailable. As a bi-vocational minister in the "Bible Belt" south I can attest to the inroads this dangerous trend is having. I have witnessed families of Southern Baptists raise children that became charismatic and now are pressured by their families to be sympathetic; and have been a part of discussions of such families that admit to the degradation it is having in their families. There is no question this is diluting truth in our churches. II Th. 2:11

As a chaplain of a rescue mission in Northern ,CA, I've been able to get the pulse of the churches in this area. I have spoken out and even felt the heat for doing so. You see each night a different church that supports the mission comes in to bring the message. The speaker from the church last night began saying; "Is there anyone here with lock jaw, or is there anyone here named Eric?" etc. Even though he struck-out on his guessing, more and more churches are coming into the mission and beginning to do this. I said to an associate sitting next to me. Its amazing they all have a "word from the Spirit", but that word has never yet been REPENT of your sins. One group told the hundred or so people sitting in front of them, that they are about to release on the people, the power of signs and wonders. Thankfully I have in my possession, and have shown or will be showing videos in the mission from such pastors as John MacArthur, R.C. Sproul, Steve Lawson, John Barnett, John Reisinger, Al Martin, Art Azurdia, etc. I look forward to attending the conference in October and bringing back information to help combat this growing crisis in the church.
How do I approach to someone that is charismatic discerning the truth from God's Word why it's wrong?
Charles Williamson wrote above: "In limited ways, Luther was a charismatic. He certainly believed tongues had ceased, at least to some extent, but had great faith for miracles. Luther prayed for Pastor Fredrich Myconius, a close friend and colleague, who was dying with tuberculosis. "
Response: Might I suggest a different interpretation of Luther's actions. IMHO this does not make Luther either a charismatic or a non cessationist even a little bit. Prayer for healing is not a mark of charismatic leanings on any level. There is a very big difference between affirming the continuance of the spiritual gift of healing as an ongoing and unrelenting manifestation of the Spirit in a person's life as a gift of the Spirit (i.e. charismatic theology) and individual prayers for healing (according to the will of God) on a case by case basis (as in Luther's case).
when did delivering the final word (derived from a clear interpretation of Scripture) on any subject become a matter of ones humble opinion?
Hi, I'm a young boy in Kenya. In our country, it seems that almost every church is saturated with charismatic doctrines, infact, I was formerly raised in a Pentecostal Assembly of God Church since in the part of the country where I come from are them who were the first missionaries but unlike other charismatics, they didnt believe in most doctrines that charismatics believe in. I started a careful Bible Study on myself and discovered that these claims of charismatics are all far-fetched mystics and false doctrine. I shared with with my friends telling them how they were "following every wind of doctrine" that are totally not Biblical as proved by the Bible and also by asking them questions if the so called 'prophecies' came to pass but they instead told me that I was trying to decrease their "faith" thus making them not please God as Hebrews 11:6 says. As a result, I lost many friends and people started calling me many names but thanks be to God Who counsels us when we are trouble, I was able to overcome it all and my prayer is that the eyes of these people will be opened and start by living by true Biblical faith.
Jesus said,"Sanctify them by Your truth.Your word is truth." All personal experience MUST be held in the light of Scripture.
Charles, #14 writes,
Some within the church deny the use of tongues continued after the age of the apostles,...etc.
One denial you didn't cover is that cessationists don't believe in modern tongues because biblically, the gift of tongues was the supernatural ability to speak a known language. This is certainly clear from a basic reading of Acts 2.
When Paul wrote about tongues in 1 Cor. 12-14, nothing he states even hints that he meant some gibberish, pseudo-prayer language that is distinct from what happened in Acts 2. Even in the early days of the modern Pentecostal movement that began with Charles Parham, the individuals who believed in the baptism of tongues understood the gift as speaking known human language.
Moreover, Paul is also explicitly clear in 1 Cor. 14 that a tongue speaker cannot exercise his gift apart from one who interprets.
Just those two items alone is enough to convince me that the modern tongues phenomena is nothing like what is recorded in Scripture.
It sounds like you're taking a stand on not taking a stand .
Does an earnest heart always supersede damnable error? How do we know which false doctrines to overlook and which to confront? Or does the same "mercy" extend to anyone who claims to know and love the God of the Bible, regardless of what they actually believe? How do we bring the truth of the gospel to Catholics, Jews, Mormons, and Muslims if we can't be clear about how their religions diverge from true, biblical doctrine?
We may—and clearly do—disagree on whether or not charismatic theology is false, but that's why we're hosting the Strange Fire conference. Because we see clear, biblical teaching on the Person and work of the Holy Spirit that we think the charismatic movement has ignored, redefined, and in some cases, twisted for their own unholy purposes. So let's get past whether or not we can voice differing opinions. We can, and for the sake of God's character and glory, we must.
We can't make the mistake of equating mercy with silence. Mercy doesn't prioritize temporal feelings over eternal souls. Mercy calls people out of the darkness of false, demonic doctrine and shines the unmistakable light of God's truth into their lives.
That's point of Strange Fire. We don't want anyone to believe a lie because we didn't speak up about the truth.
Someone e-mailed me today to disagree with John MacArthur's comments. My correspondent challenged me to cite one concrete example of any well-known Reformed Charismatic who ever provided cover to any charismatic fraud or extremist.
OK, here:
Paul Cain was a celebrity during the Third-Wave fascination with extrabiblical prophecy in the mid-1990s. I met with him once, when Jack Deere brought him to a meeting with John MacArthur in 1992. It was instantly obvious that Cain was not what he claimed. He appeared to be drunk. He was bleary-eyed and nearly incoherent. He said a few things purporting to be prophetic, and he was wrong in every detail. When he saw he was getting it wrong, he stopped trying to "prophesy" and lapsed into sullen silence. Jack Deere later attributed Cain's behavior at that meeting to the eccentricities of a powerful prophetic gifting.
It astonished me at the time that so many "respectable" charismatics gave Paul Cain any credence whatsoever. But MANY did. He was openly endorsed by Wayne Grudem, Sam Storms (who was affiliated with Cain and the Kansas City Prophets for some years), and R. T. Kendall (who actually gave Cain a prominent position of leadership at Westminster Chapel in London, once Lloyd-Jones's pulpit).
Cain's theological pedigree was tainted long before he found acceptance among Reformed charismatics. He had spent years as a disciple and cheerleader for Wm. Branham. (Look it up.). Then in 2005, after almost 15 years of affiliation with Wimber, Deere, Grudem, Storms, and other Reformed charismatics, it came to light that Cain had been indulging in homosexual behavior and alcohol abuse "for an extended period of time"--i.e., all those years.
Yet to this day, Cain's Reformed enablers have not fully renounced his "prophecies." No less than John Piper says, "He was a charlatan, I think. But he really prophesied."
That's the kind of thing John MacArthur is talking about.

Charles, #16 writes,
Fred, the biblical description you gave above is exactly what happened through me. I wasn't seeking it, I wasn't contriving it,
Charles, I noted in my initial comment that the gift of tongues as described in Scripture is the God given ability to speak real, human languages, like French, Russian, whatever that was not known to the speaker. If you "spoke in tongues" and what you spoke wasn't real, human languages with nouns, verbs, adverbs, and all the other grammatical components necessary for linguistic communication to function, then you did not exercise the gift of tongues.
Moreover, the one who speaks in tongues must be accompanied by one with the gift of interpretation. If you spoke in tongues and there wasn't anyone interpreting for you, then you were either A) not speaking in tongues, or B) misappropriating the use of that gift in violation of Paul's words in 1 Cor. 14.
Fred, do you believe that 1 Cor 14:26 allows for someone to speak in tongues to himself and God as an alternative to speaking in the church? In other words, if you have no interpreter, you're not to speak in tongues in the presence of others; but might you be able to speak quietly to yourself and to God in tongues? To begin with, in verse 2 it says you speak to God, uttering mysteries. So how do you interpret the whole chapter, especially the end of verse 26?
For all in this forum please google Justin Peters Ministries, he is a devoted Christian who is suffering from an illness he describes as a moderate form of Cerebral Palsy. He gives so much veracity to the ministry entrusted to him. He takes head on the Prosperity-Healing Gospel charlatans. See him on http://justinpeters.org/a-call-for-discernment.
I do not think the issue in this blog is that God has the ability to do a miracle in somebody´s life. One of the most beautiful testimonies I have ever heard was from J MacArthur himself about his wife Patricia in a car accident and how you can see that through prayer the hand of God worked through the issue and how God himself takes the Honor and Glory. The issue is that the Charismatic Movement and the like advocate, promote, foster that certain people can control the power of God at will and use it as they please.
Between spirit-ism, Roman Catholicism, and Charismatic-ism, I grew up watching all these non-sense, people speaking for God giving prophesies from God, God told me to tell you, etc. What was striking to me was that in all of those charismatic engagements none of the alleged messages from God were to tell a person to stop sinning or get your life straight. On the contrary just about all received the same message: I am with you, I am not finished with you, you give a lot to the church and that is good, I have a plan for you, need you to minister in my church. Also, I must mention that before all this, the so called prophet, as he was making his round around the pulpit, after a very tear jerking, piano melody, altar call, the church pastor was behind the prophet feeding information about the life of the next person he was going to "prophesy" to.
Also, one person above mentioned about Luther. Oh Lord he even included CH Spurgeon as a charismatic. For Luther one has to be very careful in which box you want to place him. Luther's theology was a work in progress until the day he died. He hated Jews with extreme passion, but I am certain that had he lived longer and providing he had studied the issue in more depth his position would have probably changed. The same with Spurgeon, one has to be careful of whatever point you want to make about his position. He was initially a major supporter of Arminianism, or at least that was his background before embracing the doctrines of grace. None of these great men of the faith are to be taken out of context, particularly when the sources provided are questionable.
Thanks for the opportunity.
Working in a missionary context overseas, I deal with charismatics all the time. The impact they are having on the developing church around the world is quite saddening. What may be equally saddening is that many who fly the banner of "Sola Scriptura" are willing to let charismatic missionaries go around teaching new converts that they must seek mystical revelation and other charismatic experiences. It seems to me that, of all people, missionaries should be teaching converts to obey all that Christ has commanded, which is of course written down for us in the pages of the Bible.
My husband and I had an unusual experience this AM attending a newer church in our little northern AZ town for the first time. I visited their website earlier in the week and it never said that they were a charismatic church. I sent them a message asking if they were charismatic and received no answer. We went, hoping that we had finally found a local church where we could worship, only to find out that it was indeed charismatic! The pastor finally came forward after 45 minutes of emotion-laden and repeticious singing and chanting. He went so far as to interject some prosperity gospel rhetoric to get us going. Speaking in tongues (gibberish) here and there, he paced around in front of the platform and attempted to work the crowd of 100 people into a frenzy.
Finally, after standing for an entire hour, we were able to sit down, which is when this pastor, with Bible in hand- but still unopened, proceded to encourage the congregation in an explanation of his mid-week study of the Holy Spirit, ie, who He is, what He does, and the need for the evidence of speaking in tongues. That is when I stood up and shouted, "That's a lie! Tongues ceased after the book of Acts," and my husband and I walked out of the church. As we were leaving I yelled that I had been in the charismatic church for 13 years, and that it was false, and that they should go to Grace to You and listen to John MacArthur.
We got in our truck and as we were leaving the church a younger man ran up to us and said he was new there and was unsure about what they were teaching, so we gave him the GTY website address and phone number. I feel badly for disrupting a church service like that, as I have never done that before, and believe me my husband had wanted to leave much earlier and was glad we walked out, but I felt God's spirit rise up within me to take a stand against what I know from my own experience, and Pastor MacArthur's teaching, that the charismatic movement is an evil trap and a huge deception from hell. I am going to the Strange Fire Conference and look forward to hearing the truth proclaimed. God bless this ministry!
Fred, your responses to Charles (#14 and #19) do not seem to agree with what the apostle Paul wrote in 1 Cor 12-14.
(a) The possibility of speaking in the tongues of angels as well as in the tongues of men is, at the very least, implied by verse 1 of chapter 13: 'If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels …'
(b) Your statement that 'a tongue speaker cannot exercise his gift apart from one who interprets' ignores Paul's focus on behaviour that is appropriate in church. In 1 Cor 14:28 he wrote '… if there is no one to interpret, let each of them keep silent in church and speak to himself and to God.' Paul did not tell those who speak in tongues to keep silent everywhere if there is no interpreter present, but to keep silent in church.
(c) Your cessationist stance seems to be in opposition to Paul's statement in 1 Cor 14:5: 'Now I want you all to speak in tongues, but even more to prophesy. The one who prophesies is greater than the one who speaks in tongues, unless someone interprets, so that the church may be built up.'
Indeed, if we broaden this out, here is what puzzles many of us about the cessationist stance. The apostle Paul's teaching about the spiritual gifts is clearly that they are to be used to build up the church (see for example 14:12). Why is it that some Christians want these gifts to have ceased when, IF they are applied biblically, they are useful for building up the church?
Yes, there are some extreme claims and some extreme abuses around, but is that a reason to dismiss the spiritual gifts completely? When our battle is against 'the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places', do we not need the spiritual gifts?
In 14:1 Paul wrote: 'Pursue love, and earnestly desire the spiritual gifts, especially that you may prophesy.' Surely it is crystal clear that we are to eagerly desire the spiritual gifts, and that the reason for this is to be better equipped to build up the church.
Robin, #26, let me see if I can provide you a response,
Regarding (a), Paul is not suggesting that Christians are given the ability by the Holy Spirit to speak "angelic" language, or that tongues is such "angelic" language. He is using an illustration to contrast what genuine use of the gifts should be like clothed in true, sacrificial love. In other words, he is saying, "It doesn't matter if I can speak the language of angels, if I have not love, such an ability is worthless."
Moreover, it is hardly the case that the gibberish that is passed off as "speaking in tongues" by the modern day charismatic churches is "angel" language. This implies that angels communicate without the function of normal rules of grammar, subject-verb agreement, use of adjectives and adverbs, etc.
Regarding (b) I believe the cessation of the gift of tongues is established on other grounds, particularly 1 Cor. 13:8 and following. John's teaching from 1 Corinthians and his sermon on the gift of tongues from his Charismatic Chaos series will put that in proper perspective. Transcripts of those messages can be read here, http://www.gty.org/resources/sermons/1871 and here, http://www.gty.org/resources/sermons/90-61
But for the sake of discussion, let's grant that you are correct, that Paul is saying that the gift of tongues is still valid and if a person is compelled to speak in tongues and no interpreter is present he is to remain silent and speak the gift to himself like a private prayer language.
First, the receiving of the gift is not taught this way by the majority of charismatics. On the contrary, speaking in tongues is viewed as proof of baptism in the HS. But that is not being baptized in the HS.
Moreover, there is no congregation that practices the view of tongues you suggest here. If there is, they are rare and do not represent the majority of charismatic/Pentecostal style churches where tongue speaking is wild and out-of-control. Your view would eliminate at least 95% of all "tongue" speaking.
Regarding (c), again, cessationism is confirmed by other factors contained in the whole of Scripture, not just three chapters in 1 Corinthians. I would encourage you to listen to John's series of messages on spiritual gifts from 1 Cor. 12-14 to get a fuller picture of what it is cessationism teaches and why.
You ask,
Why is it that some Christians want these gifts to have ceased
when, IF they are applied biblically, they are useful for building up the church?
In the context of Scripture, tongues was for the purpose of communicate the Gospel in the languages of foreign peoples. It was also a sign for the Jews to see that their messiah had come. Those functions have been fulfilled. Turning the question back to you, how is the church "built up" and equipped with tongues today? Especially in light of the overwhelming amount of extreme abuse you seem to recognize?
Fred, #27, thank you for your response, I will just make 4 comments for the moment:
(1) Given the worldwide nature of the Lord's Church, and the many thousands of congregations that it includes, it is surprising that you state: 'Moreover, there is no congregation that practices the view of tongues you suggest here.' Is any human being in possession of sufficient knowledge to make such an unqualified statement?
(2) You also state that: 'In the context of Scripture, tongues was for the purpose of communicate the Gospel in the languages of foreign peoples. It was also a sign for the Jews to see that their messiah had come.' The giving of the Holy Spirit and the speaking in tongues described in Cornelius' house (Acts 10:44-46) and in Ephesus (Acts 19:5-7) do not fit comfortably with your statement. I think we need to take great care with explanations of these things, in case we put inappropriate limits upon what God will do and his motives for doing it.
(3) You ask: 'how is the church "built up" and equipped with tongues today?' One way the church is built up through the genuine gift of tongues is by the strengthened faith of the believers who receive it. They gain personal confirmation that God gives supernatural gifts, and they come to understand more of the Scriptures, such as what Paul meant when he wrote: 'For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays, but my mind is unfruitful' (1 Cor 14:14). If they do not abuse the gift they have received, their local church will be built up simply by the presence of those believers. Their strengthened faith will show in the way they live – thanks to God's generosity.
(4) Yes I do recognize that there is abuse of what some claim to be spiritual gifts, and some of that abuse appears to be extreme – as in the video that Phil Johnson posted recently. But the existence of abuses does not negate the existence of authentic gifts. Indeed, many would argue that the existence of the counterfeit indicates that the genuine exists too.
Pentecostals say that Matthew 28:19, baptizing in the name of the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit, was added to the book of Matthew by catholics. This is absurd because if this chapter was added, how about this or that other chapter. Were they added also?
How do I refute the idea that Matthew 28, more specifically, Matthew 28:19 was not mistakenly added to the Bible?
Eliane, #30,
I ran into an anti-Trinitarian United Pentecostal apologist a few years back. He raised the same claim you note here that Matthew 28:19 was added to the text later and it doesn't reflect what Matthew originally wrote.
My immediate reaction was that his claim smacks of conspiracy. When I had the opportunity to investigate it through a variety of commentary and textual critical resources at our seminary library, my reaction was confirmed.
Out of all the major commentaries I researched, including many of the high-end, liberal variety, none of the authors even suggested that this passage was added later after Matthew wrote it. Even studying a variety of manuscript evidence, none of it offered any proof that these words were added.
How to "refute" the notion can take many avenues, but I would suggest two approaches: First and foremost is that any person raising that challenge has to provide some legitimate, textual evidence that we can examine or that has been examined by experts. I would suggest asking that person to show you proof of his assertion. IOW, where exactly is he getting that claim and is it sustainable.
Next I would encourage you to familiarize yourself with the doctrine of the Trinity. What exactly is it that Christians are affirming when they speak about the Trinity? A simple lay level review of the Trinity can be found with James White's book, "The Forgotten Trinity." He lays out the doctrine well. For a popular treatment you can find on the internet, check out the Department of Christian Defense, http://www.christiandefense.org/, that has many online articles interacting with and answering objections to the Trinity.

Are Elite Colleges and Universities Discriminating Against Homeschoolers? asks Paula Bolyard, a recently "retired" homeschooler, on PJ Lifestyle.
Homeschooled student "enter college with significantly higher test scores than their public (and even private) school peers," she writes. "They graduate from college at a higher rate—66.7 percent compared to 57.5 percent—and earn higher grade point averages while in school, according to one study."
Princeton seems to get it, she writes. Applicants who can't supply a traditional transcript can submit an outline of the homeschool curriculum.
Yale wants to make sure homeschooled kids are not socially awkward:
We look for evidence of social maturity from all our applicants and especially from home-schooled students. Your personal statement, interests and activities, and letters of recommendation should speak to your ability to integrate well with other students and tell us about your non-academic interests.
But elsewhere Yale says "academic strength" is the "first consideration" with "motivation, curiosity, energy, leadership ability, and distinctive talents" in second place.
"We're going to want to know what the reason for homeschooling is," a Dartmouth admissions official told Lindsay Cross at the Mommyish blog.
"Was the student busy with another demanding pursuit, like playing music? Were they traveling with their family? Was there a lack of resources in their area? Somewhere in the application, they're going to need to explain."
Private school students aren't asked to explain why they didn't attend public school, Bolyard points out.
Some elite colleges ask homeschooled students to submit additional SAT II test scores. That strikes me as reasonable. A straight-A student who's been graded by Mom will need objective evidence of achievement.
But what about a teacher's recommendation when Mom is the teacher?
In addition to a "not-so-subtle interrogation about the family's choice to opt out of public education," Brown also asks for "letters of recommendation from instructors who have taught you in a traditional classroom setting and who can speak to your abilities and potential in an objective way."
Brown "would prefer not to receive letters of recommendation from your parents, immediate relatives, or from academic tutors in the paid employ of your family," unless the applicant has no classroom instructors to ask.

Long-time Facebook friends of Flight Training magazine know that on the first Tuesday of each month at 3 p.m. Eastern, we host a live chat through our Facebook page. This lets us chat in real time with you. We use CoverItLive as the chat interface. It's lots of fun, and we always have a great discussion.
This year we got an exciting new sponsor, Aircraft Spruce & Specialty, which is providing a $50 gift card for each chat. That means one of you can win a $50 gift card just for showing up and participating! You'll find a lot of great pilot gear on their website. (And if you should want to "like" their Facebook page, that'd be nice, too.)
This FAQ should help you find us and get chatting to increase your chances of being the lucky recipient.
Q. When is the chat?
A. It's always the first Tuesday of the month, and always at 3 p.m. Eastern.
Q. How will I know it's coming?
A. If you're like me, you have to make yourself a note on Outlook. But CoverItLive has a function where you can send yourself an email reminder. You can set it for a day, an hour, a half-hour, or 15 minutes before the chat. Click here.
Q. How do I get to the chat?
A. There are two ways—and here's where it gets a little
If viewing the chat on a computer, we recommend you just click the chat icon in the timeline on our Facebook page. That takes you directly to the CoverItLive window. You won't see anything except the chat topic until the chat actually starts. Once it starts, you'll see a window that lets you type your comments and hit "send."
- If using a smartphone, we recommend you to go this URL. This is a direct URL for our CoverItLive window.
- If you can't get to us through the chat icon, try using the direct URL.
- If using an iPad, either way should work.
Q. OK. I got to the chat, but I don't see a window. What do I do now?
A. Check your screen resolution. It should be set to the highest resolution. Alternatively, use another browser. Safari, Google Chrome, and Firefox work well; Internet Explorer and AOL, not so much.
Q. Do I have to be logged in?
A. No.
Q. I got to the chat and it has started, but it still says it is waiting. What do I do?
A. Refresh the screen; if a box pops up asking if you're sure you want to leave the page, say "yes."
Q. OK, I'm in the chat! I can see questions and answers from other people, but you haven't posted my question. Why is that?
A. It takes us a certain amount of time to respond to each question. And, depending on the number of comments and the complexity of the topic, we may not be able to post each and every question or comment. We'll do our best, though.
Q. I have a question, but it's not about what the topic of the chat is. Can I post it anyway?
A. Of course, as long as it's related to flight training or flying.
Q. I'm in the chat, but it seems to be frozen. What do I do?
A. Try refreshing your screen.
We look forward to chatting with you! If you have any other issues with the chat that weren't addressed here, please email me ([email protected]).—Jill W. Tallman

Try samples from here: http://www.houdeasianart.com/index.php? ... 271b643277
Most of the items are very fair in prices.
Yunnan Sourcing for more bulk stuff, and every day material. Most is crap, a few good things.
Mandarin's Tea Room has one classic aged puerh, and one young single mountain Yiwu. The aged tea is great, so I hear, and I've had the young tea, which is pretty good.
Essence of Tea is also respectable.
There is Sampletea, Far Wenwa Tea, Origin Tea, and white2tea.
Again, there isn't any genuine point with cheaper puerh as opposed to getting your caffeine any other way. Those teas have their charms, but it takes an educated taste and indulgent attitude to appreciate them. Otherwise, you drink it because they're cheap caffeine. Good tea will be wasted on n00bs too, but it will be easier and more encouraging to have something nice, and with repeated exposure, you'll figure out exactly why something is good. There are substantial resources online to guide you to potentially good choices for you, though much of it will be about tea you can't buy anymore.

Research Summary
The central interest of our laboratory is the mechanisms that initiate pancreatitis, a severe inflammatory disease that causes death in up to 5% of patients. The disease begins with the premature activation of pancreatic digestive enzymes within the acinar cell, inhibition of secretion, activation of inflammatory pathways, and cell death. We study the pathways that initiate disease with a goal of identifying therapeutic targets.
Speciailzed Terms: Exocrine pancreas; Pancreatitis; Intracellular proteolysis; Vacuolar ATPase; AMPK; Protein kinase C
Extensive Research Description
We have found that this activation takes place in a special cellular organelle that has features of both a lysosome and classic secretory vesicle. We are characterizing this novel compartment and the second messenger signals that stimulate zymogen activation and are focusing on the role of vacuolar-ATPases (vATPase) and organelle acidification. vATPase are distinctive proton transporters that are dynamically regulated by assembly and disassembly of membrane-bound and soluble subunits.
We have found that distinct protein kinases, such as AMPK, regulate the activation and inactivation of the vATPase. These studies have direct clinical implications. Thus, we have recently found that an acute acid load worsens pancreatitis responses in an animal model of this disease. Further, certain metabolic products, such as lactate may lessen the severity of disease. Finally, pharmacological agents that enhance the activity of AMPK may be useful for disease treatment and/or prevention. We plan to pursue these studies using rodents models of pancreatitis, human acinar cells, and to collobrate with clinical investigators to examine these pathways in patients.

2) Effects of cigarette smoke toxins in cellular and animal models of pancreatitis (with Dr. Edwin Thrower)
3) Effects of lactate in cellular and animal models of pancreatitis (with Dr. Rafaz Hoque and Waj Mehal)
