The Implications of The Da Vinci Code: Part 1 of 3
Announcer:The 21st century has ushered in events and issues that cause us to ask, "Where is God in today's world?" In response, Dallas Theological Seminary presents DTS Dialogue - Issues of God in Culture: The Implications of The Da Vinci Code.
Although considered fiction, Dan Browns novel challenges orthodox Christianity in serious ways. Thanks for joining us as we discuss what all believers need to know about The Da Vinci Code, part one.
Dr. Mark Bailey:Welcome to DTS Dialogue - Issues of God in Culture. I'm your host, Dr. Mark Bailey, president of Dallas Theological Seminary. Today our discussion topic is "The Implications of The Da Vinci Code."
Today, with me in the studio we have Dr. Jeffrey Bingham, Department Chair and Professor of Theological Studies, and Dr. Darrell Bock, Research Professor of New Testament Studies and Professor of Spiritual Development and Culture. Gentlemen welcome, thanks for joining me.
Dr. Darrell Bock: Good day.
Dr. Jeffrey Bingham: Good to be here.
Mark:Darrell, let me begin with you; we've got some questions that we would like to ask and interact around. Why all the fuss about The Da Vinci Code? It's a work of fiction, and since we don't get our history from fiction, why has this novel caused such a stir? Don't novelists wed fact and fiction normally to create an entertaining story? What's the issue?
Darrell:Well, the issue here has to do with how this novel had been and was hyped originally. It's actually changed slightly in the last few months. Originally, Dan Brown went around in interviews and he was asked questions like "If you were writing nonfiction, would you change anything about what you said." The context was clearly these theories related to Christianity in which the question was asked, and he said, "I wouldn't change a thing. I had carefully researched everything. I came to believe in these things," in fact, his phrase was "I came to be a believer in these things." I almost wanted the organ to start playing and for people to come forward, it sounded like an evangelist.
When I heard him say that, the day that the ABC special aired on his book, teaching introduction and knowing what some of that history is, I decided that if I had the opportunity to write about this I would because it's such a misrepresentation of the early history of Christianity in the novel. So, what he did was he created a "tweener" genre, and what I mean by that is it's said to be fiction, but he says the skeleton -- the background -- is nonfiction, and it's being portrayed as if it's true.
Let's assume that he was completely honest in this; that really he was writing a piece of fiction and that's all that it was. The fact is that we have millions of people out there who have read the book, who have taken what he is saying to perhaps be true. For those people in particular, it's important that they understand what is true and what isn't in the novel.
Mark:Yes. I had a very good friend, who having read it on a vacation came back and his faith was challenged. It was stretched and stressed. It became more personal as I listened to his struggle, that this was more than just a novel to be entertaining, but it was really a challenge to the very Christian faith that we hold dear.
Dr. Bingham, why do you think it important for a Christian to know what issues are being addressed in this book?
Jeffrey:Well, perhaps we could mention just three which are central to every Christian's faith and the spiritual life of every Christian. I think, perhaps, of the three issues that we could focus upon that this book raises for us, first of all, the book suggests that there are other Christian texts, which should be being read and should be being heeded in terms of our understanding of Jesus, in terms of our understanding of salvation and in terms of our understanding of key doctrinal issues. In other words, it's making the claim that the Christian canon, which you and I carry to church every Sunday with us as we listen to our preachers and our pastors, is not telling us the whole truth, as matter of fact, it may be misguiding us -- there are other books which need to be included.
Secondly, it challenges the entire question of whether or not we can be secure in recognizing as inspired, and therefore as true, the 66 books that are contained within the covers that we carry with us to church and that we read every morning in our quiet and devotional times. It's making canonical challenge.
Thirdly, it's also making a challenge regarding the nature and the person of Christ, that the doctrine of Christ's deity, which all Christians affirm and by which we are saved. If He is not God, our salvation is still in jeopardy. The book raises questions about, perhaps, the fictional character, the political character, perhaps even the financial character of the deity of Christ, rather than the authentic character of that doctrine. So, these three issues, I think perhaps, lay at the very foundation of why it's important for us to be familiar with this book.
Mark:With that in the background, let me ask you both to chime in as you desire. You hinted at it, but how else does The Da Vinci Code attack the integrity of the scriptures, and specifically, the role of the gospels in the Bible?
Darrell:Well, it does so in a couple of ways. One, it suggests that there are a myriad of gospels that were out there that reflected what Christianity was in the earliest period that did not make it into the Bible, that were consciously rejected out of a kind of power play -- that's the argument, anyway. And that if we had these gospels we would see that Christianity was more diverse originally, that there are lots of what are called "alternative" or "lost" Christianities that now have been rediscovered, and so Christianity can take a variety of forms. It's not what the church has historically said it to be in terms of its core doctrine. So, that's one way in which the integrity of the Bible has been challenged.
The second way in which the integrity of the Bible has been challenged is with respect to the way in which the Bible itself came to be recognized, particularly the New Testament books. There's a lot that the novel says here about the timing of how that emerged that's important. It is, in fact, the case that we don't get all the books of the New Testament named until the fourth century.
But, what that's not telling you is that it is the Gospels that were the first things to be affirmed out of that collection, and that they were clearly functioning as the four Gospels by the time of Irenaeus at the end of the second century. We have suggestions as well and evidence that Paul's epistles were functioning this way. What was being disputed were not those works but whether or not to include things like Second Peter, Second John, Revelation and Hebrews. These were the books that were being discussed in that latter period. Now this leaves us with a period of about 150 years between the death of Christ and Irenaeus. It's important to understand that for the novel and that for the theories that are underneath the novel, Irenaeus is kind of the boogieman. He is the one who is responsible for launching the direction of moving towards orthodoxy, or what we call Christianity.
The evidence of this period before Irenaeus is very important. The problem is that we don't have concrete clear evidence of a canonical function of the Gospels in that period. What we have are fathers sighting this gospel or that gospel but we aren't working with all four of them together yet in a clear kind of way. How is the faith communicated in that period? That becomes the question.
What we see is that within these documents we have little doctrinal summaries. We have hymnic sections. We have the words that are said over the Lord's table. These are all communicating core theology. We know that these were circulating in independent units by the way they were laid out, by the shortness of them, the memorability of them, the fact that they can be easily memorized. I think mess up a word there.
In this period we can see this theology consistently running through the writings of the first two centuries in the theology that they represent. The idea that God is the creator. That he is good. The idea that Jesus is both human and divine. The idea that Jesus died for our sins. The idea that resurrection involves the body and not just the soul. We can see that consistently through the writers of those periods. That ends up being an affirmation of what the Bible ends up teaching when this collection is finally brought together because the church recognized that what these biblical books were expressing was that core theology that was being taught through the churches in those periods. It goes back to the Apostles.
Darrell:I think the book actually plays an old game, as old as the middle part of the second century, the late part of the second century. If we are to read, say the book written by Irenaeus, that Darrell mentioned just a moment ago, already in 180 A.D., Irenaeus is telling us that there is this group of heretics, known as the Gnostics, that are wandering around and they are trying to lead people astray. They are trying to lead people away from their pastors. They are trying to lead people away from the communities in which they fellowship, which are grounded in the truth by saying things like this:
"Don't you realize that there are books which your pastor isn't letting you read?"
"Don't you know that there are books out there that you need to be reading which tell you a fuller story of Jesus and of salvation?"
"Don't you know that your pastor is actually keeping some things back from you?"
All of this enticement is going on in the second century. What you see is that this is almost the exact same thing that is taking place in Dan Brown's novel. He's setting forth all these alternative books, all these alternative gospels, as if orthodox Christianity in the 20th and 21st century has not told you the whole truth about Jesus. For the first time now in a popular way, his book is now alerting you to all of these other books that are out there which you really need to take account of if you are going to have a true and thorough picture of Jesus Christ and of salvation. It challenges the integrity of the Bible by putting forth the claim that the Bible, as we have it, is not the Bible as it should be, but these other books, which are associated with the second and third century movement of Gnosticism need to be added. Your Bible isn't enough... that's the claim that is being made.
Mark:When someone reads the reviews of Dan Brown's books from a Christian perspective and the subject of these Gnostic gospels get raised, talk to me about these gospels. You know, Dan Brown talks about that there were more than 80 different gospels, etcetera. What do we really know and what's the truth about these?
Darrell:Well, actually these extra biblical books that we have run a range. Not all of them are Gnostic, although most of them are. The best I can tell, the count that I've been able to make, there are about 32 texts total, outside the four Gospels, that deal with some aspect of the life of Christ. Most of them deal with his appearances after his resurrection. That's one of the interesting things about these materials. Most of them deal with the resurrected Jesus giving some revelation to someone. That's what they claim to do. It's almost as if the point of the text is to say, "we're going to trump what the Gospels tell you because the Gospels tell you what Jesus taught when he was on Earth and we're going to give you the latest and greatest from Jesus." Of course, it has a variety of things. The range runs from the Gospel of Thomas, which probably itself is not a Gnostic gospel, it's kind of a mix of stuff that has come out of the same kinds of materials that we see in the synoptic. Also, about 25 percent of the Gospel of Thomas, which is composed of about 114 sayings of Jesus. About 25 percent you go, "that looks very familiar." The reason it looks familiar, it looks very much like what you see in your synoptic gospels. Another 25 percent of it you read it and then go, "that sort of looks familiar" and that's because it's fairly close to what you see in the synoptic gospels. The other 50 percent is, you've never seen this before, it all looks new and different.
You've got that at one end of the spectrum and then you go all the way over to works like the Apocryphon of John or the Gospel of Mary Magdalene. These are reporting on depictions of what their creation is like, on what the afterlife is like, etcetera. It's putting in these doctrines of, these are Gnostic works, of Gnosticism which emphasize the fact that the body was corrupt, that the creation was evil from the beginning, that God didn't directly create that creation, it was created by underlings called Demiurges, and that Jesus... Actually, the problem in these works isn't so much that Jesus is human, the problem in these works is Jesus is so divine, he can't be human. It's the exact opposite of what Dan Brown is claiming. It's in these variations that we see the early church reacting against them because the early church inherited the view of God that came from Judaism that said God was the creator of everything, that it was good in the beginning and then there was a fall in sin that brings in human accountability. In the Gnostic text you're only speaking, "Don't go there." So, one of the interesting things that I've learned in working with this material has been that the reaction against it isn't just a matter of what they believe about Jesus. The reaction against it is also very much fueled about what they believe about God and the instinctive reaction would have been, that's not the God that I recognize from the Old Testament. That's not the God who is the good, creator God. That's something else and there was a reaction against that.
Mark: These texts were discovered where?
Darrell:They were discovered in Nag Hammadi, Egypt in 1945. We knew about the contents of this material from what the church fathers wrote about in the second and third centuries. In fact, Irenaeus' description of one of these books is so precise that when we dug up the Nag Hammadi text and they read the Apocrypha of John, students of that material went "Oh we know that text. That's what Irenaeus was talking about. That's the Apocryphon of John."
Mark: So it's not unfamiliar material that was suddenly discovered a generation ago. It's never been known.
Darrell:No we had been talking about this material for centuries. The Fathers have been analyzing it for centuries and then it died away and now it has come back. The reason these materials are historically significant to us is because it tells us about elements of fringe groups associating themselves with Christianity in the second and third centuries and we get to hear their views directly rather through a critical lens which is what the fathers were giving us and so we get to see the works that they were reading and circulating among themselves without any intervening voices.
So from an historical standpoint that's actually quite important to us because what we see are those differences that we were talking about but when this material gets handled in the public by novels like Dan Brown's or is taught and this is important, is taught in university classes about the origins of Christianity in many university classes this stuff is being taught. That's where the other books are coming from. What's being highlighted in that material is a selective use of this material and it not giving you a full scope of what this exactly teaches and, therefore, we are getting a distorted view of what these texts actually teach.
Mark:We mentioned briefly in terms of the deity humanity, there is a view put forth in the book that the divinity of Christ, the deity of Christ was not a doctrine of the early church until the fourth century. Dr. Bingham talks to me about the deity humanity of Christ and Dan Brown talks about a close vote at Nicea. What really happened there?
Jeffrey:First of all, the claim that the church did not believe in the deity of Christ until the fourth centuries that's downright silly. There is no way to substantiate this in an intelligent fashion. What happened in Nicea was that in the summer of 325 Constantine, an emperor, who looks over his empire and sees that it is splitting over the doctrinal issue. The doctrinal issue of whether or not the Son of God is a creature or whether or not the Son of God is of the same essence, substance or nature as the Father. Whether or not the Son of God is a creature who is created or not eternal or whether the Son of God is indeed eternal with the Father. He sees that his empire is dividing over these two views. Part of the empire is gathering around Arias who is arguing the position that the Son of God is nothing but a creature, the best and brightest but still nothing more than a creature.
Then those gathered around Alexander of Alexandria who is arguing the traditional faith of Christianity that the Son of God is eternal with the Father and a share all of the divine attributes. The emperor seeing that his empire is experiencing this kind of tension and this kind of split calls the theologians of the church, the Bible teachers of the church to gather in Nicea in the summer of 325. They wrestle this question. They talk about this question. They examine the Bible together. They argue. They fight. They slap each other on the back and then finally, they come to the decision which is expressed to us in the Nicean Creed. Was there a vote taken? Probably, probably several. The issue is that somehow through working this way and massaging this and pressing this point, the counsel decided to issue a statement which we know as the Nicean Creed which declares that the son of God is indeed of the same essence, the same substance and the same nature as the Father.
What is interesting although this was the decision of the Nicean counsel it didn't necessarily become the main position of Mediterranean world. After the Counsel of Nicea in 325, perhaps we can say the majority of the Mediterranean world continued to follow Arias. That was a theological battle that then took place as orthodox theologians argued against Arian theologians until finally in 381 at the Counsel of Constantinople was the issue of Arianism finally put to rest. The creed of Nicea did not solve the problem of Arianism. What it did was to put forth a statement of faith which then became the basis by which orthodox theologians continued to argue against the Arian theologians finally winning the day in 381.
Darrell:Jeff isn't it the case that when this creed was put forward people signed onto it in effect. I heard the number of bishops running from anywhere of 216 to just over 300 attended that counsel. That all the two signed on when it was all said and done. Is that correct?
Jeffrey:There certainly was a grand, huge movement of affirmation of it. Whether I can confirm your number of two or not is someplace I'm not sure I can go but yes, if we are talking about the majority, absolutely. This is the strong position of Nicea.
Darrell:It wasn't close. The numbers ranged anywhere from 17 objectors at the start all the way down to this figure of two at the end. I heard the number of five when it came to the point of anathmatizing Arias. There were five that didn't agree with anathemitizing or putting a curse, if you will, on Arias. So regardless of what the exact number is we aren't talking about a close vote. We are not talking about something that was close. At Nicea, this was a very clear affirmation of the vast majority of the bishops who were present.
Jeffrey: Yes, absolutely.

carter release aid questions
just purchased a carter target 4 release and am having trouble getting the hang of it, just wandering if any of you have any tips for this type of release
03-14-2006, 08:48 PM #2Originally Posted by arkansaspondhopper
To shoot the release use back tension. Anchor and wrap your thumb around the trigger in order to hold the trigger in place, you may have to adjust the trigger to fit your hand, and preload the trigger. We are not going to squeeze the trigger at all, instead, continue to pull with your back and let your fingers relax. The extra tension and relaxed fingers will allow the release to move forward slightly, setting off the release and giving the surprise, sub-conscious , release.
The main thing is not to think about the release, you should have 100% concentration on the X. Not just the X, but the exact center of the X. Once you start into your aiming process you can not let up till you hear the arrow hit the target. Remember you can't hit any better than you can aim.....

Afm my bday is tomorrow so I'm taking the day off work and going to the spa and my lovely Dh is taking me out for a nice steak dinner after :-). Then Friday I have my lining check.
Dh and I talked about the airline costs to San Fran and we decided that unless we can find tickets for under $500 he's not going. Luckily one of my closet girlfriends lives in San Fran and she's agreed to go up to Davis with me for the transfer if hubby can't go.

Hi Brendan,
Firstly a huge thank you, as the advice and resources you're providing on here are invaluable. Amazing that you're doing it all free of charge and out of goodwill.
I've got two questions to ask if that's OK:
Firstly, I'm struggling to nail a balanced routine - I boxed when I was younger and did martial arts, but in recent years (I'm now 40), I've been purely fitness-focused and discovered crossfit about two years ago (training by myself rather than as part of a box). However, I took up MMA in August and I'm absolutely smitten - can't get enough of it. The biggest challenge, therefore, is that I'm finding it hard to fit everything in and need to get it more systematic. As things stand I've dropped the crossfit-style metcons recently on the basis that I'll be getting a similar workout from the MMA sessions anyway, and instead I've started following 'Starting Strength' on the basis that this will give me better balance in terms of my routine and get my base numbers higher - I currently weigh 75kg and my 1-rep maxes are around 130kg deadlift, 105kg squat and 65kg press. Only other issue I should mention is that the gym I'm using has an Olympic bar but no squat rack, so I'm currently alternating between front squats and overhead squats rather than doing back squats (as an aside, I'm finding that having to clean the bar to get into the front squat position is really taking it out of me as well - I'm currently doing 3x5 at 70kg).
At the moment I'm thinking of trying to do the following:
Sunday: MMA (wrestling) 6-7pm followed by Thai boxing 7-8pm
Monday: Starting Strength routine before work and then MMA (BJJ) 8.30-10pm
Tuesday: Rest Day
Wednesday Starting Strength before work then MMA (striking and sparring) 8.30pm-10pm
Thursday MMA (BJJ) 6-7pm; Thai boxing 7-8pm
Friday: Yoga 9am and BJJ technique work in the afternoon
Saturday: Starting Strength AM and then Wrestling 2-3.30pm
Would really appreciate your thoughts on that and what I should do to tweak/improve it.
The second question is that I've also realised I'd like to take my passion a stage further and achieve some professional qualifications in the fitness industry. The obvious one in the short-term seems to be the crossfit level one trainer course, but again, I'd welcome your views. Thanks and apologies for such a long one!

If you want to argue that MMA or boxing is a sport and not two thugs brawling in a cage it's hard to see where the name-calling, smack talk etc fits in. If it's a sport all that matters is the strategy and the physical stuff in the ring or the cage. I

Any opinions I express on this forum are entirely personal opinions and it should not be assumed that they reflect the official view of any organisations I am connected with
Considering MMA is alot different there are less stories doing the rounds about MMA fighters than footballers, in my eyes they conduct themselves in a far better way.
If Bisping had started slagging Belfort post fight then I could understand your concern but pre fight it's all part and parcel of the business, obtain an advantage in anyway possible (legal of course) and sell the fight the best you can.
Got a problem? Odds against you? Call the Equalizer
Another loss to another TRT user. Bisping needs to get on the gear to compete with that level.
tbh thought bisping looked tentative engaging with belfort, no surprise mind you given his repeated history of rendering people unconscious but i look forward to seeing results of any testing cos when i seen belforts vascularity walking into cage immediately thought he'd been using. But even if he fails a test and it was ruled a no contest they could never sell Bisping for a title shot. As for the smack talk its funny to a point but sometimes looks too rehearsed but the main thing i think that will hold mma back in terms of mass appeal in light of lance armstrongs case is drug abuse.
When the UFC stage an event in Brazil, who does the dope testing?
I was disappointed in Bispings performance. He's a better fighter than that. I really thought that if he could have taken Vitor to the later rounds he would have been able to grind out a decision or even score a KO.

Understanding GHG Emissions from Plug-In Electric Vehicles
A hot topic in environmental circles lately has been the impact plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) will have on reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Some are optimistic about PEVs' emission reduction potential, while others are pessimistic. The truth is, not surprisingly, somewhere in between. In order to reduce emissions from the transportation sector, we must both move to low carbon fuels (including electricity, which has zero GHG emissions from the tailpipe) and reduce the carbon intensity of the electrical grid.
Conventional Vehicle
Internal combustion engine vehicle fueled by gasoline
Hybrid Electric Vehicle; vehicle with both an internal combustion engine and an electric propulsion system
Electric Vehicle; electric propulsion vehicle powered by a battery
Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle where XX is the maximum amount of miles that can be driven on battery power; the remainder of miles are driven using an internal combustion engine fueled by gasoline
Plug-in Electric Vehicle; includes both PHEVs and EVs
To understand the impact of PEVs on the environment compared to alternatives, we have to consider the lifecycle GHG emissions from these vehicles. This kind of lifecycle analysis is commonly referred to as well-to-wheels emissions, and for PEVs that means we must consider the electricity generation source.
The figure below shows a breakdown of electricity generation by the 13 regions defined by the North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC), a non-profit company set up by the utility industry to ensure the reliability of the bulk power system in North America. As you can see, the mix of sources of electricity varies greatly depending on the region and these differences influence the GHG emission from PEVs.

It is important to understand that the environmental benefit of using PEVs is not simply a function of which region has the highest amount of low-carbon electricity generation. The factor most important is which generation source is used to charge these new sources of demand for electricity. In particular, vehicles charged at night may have to rely on existing coal power in some regions since turning the units off and on (cycling) creates a lot of excess GHG emissions. It is therefore critical that electric grid management be optimized to allow for cleaner sources of energy to meet this new demand whenever possible. Since this optimization may not be the lowest cost with today's prices, public policy should play a role in leveling the playing field for cleaner sources of energy including correcting the price of traditional generation sources to account for harmful GHG emissions.
The environmental benefit also depends on the performance of PEVs versus conventional vehicles, and how much competing vehicles improve over time. Complex models of PEV usage and electricity generation management can assist in determining the impact on lifecycle GHG emissions from these vehicles compared to other vehicles. The figure below conveys the results of two studies that aimed to do just that. As you can see, the advantage of PEVs over conventional vehicles depends on the fuel efficiency of the conventional vehicle as well as the carbon intensity of the grid. In fact, in the future, improved conventional gasoline-powered vehicles could have lower lifecycle GHG emissions than PEVs if the electrical grid remains unchanged. So while a PEV when operated in all-electric mode will emit zero GHG emissions from the tailpipe, the lifecycle emissions of the vehicle are likely non-zero even out into the future.
The deployment of PEVs nationwide will not be instantaneous and may not seriously reduce GHG emissions from the transportation sector unless the electrical grid is decarbonized. Switching to electricity will certainly reduce oil consumption and thereby enhance national security, but it will not necessarily reduce GHG emissions to mitigate the impacts from climate change.

ROSELLE PARK, N.J. (AP) — Internet gambling is taking hold in New Jersey on its first full day.
New Jersey is the third state after Nevada and Delaware to offer online betting, but it is by far the largest legal market in the U.S. thus far.
A five-day trial period ended Monday, and six Atlantic City casinos got clearance to offer statewide Internet gambling. They are the Borgata, the two Trump casinos, Tropicana and Bally's and Caesars. The Golden Nugget is fixing some bugs with its system and will join them soon.
Jon Hernandez, a delivery man from Roselle Park, has been playing poker on the Ultimate Casino site. He says he feels safe playing in a highly regulated betting environment.

Anesthesiology Focus for Operating Room Efficiency
This article appears in the December 2012 issue of HealthLeaders magazine.
Anesthesiology may be a sleeper in healthcare, in a manner of speaking. While not traditionally regarded among the top service lines, anesthesiology programs are a direct link to a hospital's biggest moneymaker: surgery in the operating rooms.
As much as 60% to 70% of hospital revenues are tied to the operating room, and anesthesia administered in the OR or other parts of the hospital are critical because of their widespread impact, according to Sabrina Bent, MD, MS, clinical associate professor of anesthesiology and director of research at Tulane University in New Orleans.
Yet throughout the United States, when surgeries are canceled at the last minute—often because patients decide to delay or forego the procedure, and sometimes because of scheduling problems in hospitals—it can cost healthcare facilities millions of dollars in lost revenue.
Hospitals are homing in on anesthesia programs to buttress their ORs and improve coordination with patients to reduce delays. They are also initiating changes to improve scheduling and staffing, and overcome bottlenecks in patient flow, which are the result of inefficient and unpredictable OR scheduling.
"Anesthesiologists are the traffic cops" in the OR, says Martin De Ruyter, MD, associate professor in the department of anesthesiology at the 606-bed Kansas University Medical Center in Kansas City, Kan. De Ruyter says effective partnerships with the anesthesia department help improve physician communication and accountability, which directly impacts perioperative care.
That coordination is essential to reducing inefficiencies in care caused by the cancellations of procedures, which cost $1 million in 2009 at the 235-bed Tulane Medical Center, according to Bent. This financial fallout prompted Tulane to take steps to revise its scheduling programs, with anesthesia service a key element for improved preoperative procedures, she says.
For several years, the 866-bed St. John's Regional Health Center in Springfield, Mo., organized programs to improve flow in surgical cases for its 39 surgical suites. Anesthesiology was a major focus of a physician-led committee exploring patient flow, says Jeff Hawkins, RN, MHA, OR administrative director for Mercy Health, which runs St. John's. "There is an oversight coordinator who works hand-in-hand with anesthesia, looking at the rooms, what's open, what's not, where we can put people in," Hawkins says. "There's a lot of communication going back and forth. There is a long list: What did we capture, what did we miss?"
By focusing on OR efficiency and service, the scheduling changes are often coordinated by anesthesiology leaders, says John Herring, MD, the anesthesia medical director at the 280-staffed-bed St. Luke's Hospital, in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, who also practices with Linn County Anesthesiologists. One of the areas that the hospital focuses on is block scheduling, a procedure in which anesthesiologists have flexibility in scheduling to ensure that different ORs are utilized and reducing the number of empty suites on some days and overcrowded ones on others.
"It's beneficial for everyone to improve scheduling processes and define block scheduling," says Herring, noting that there should be efforts to "reduce the unintended but frustrating competition for resources."

6 weeks pregnant
I am 5 weeks pregnant. It is my first pregnancy.
Since Tuesday I started feeling a pain in my lower abdomen like menstruation pain. Since then I have that type of pain coming back regularly for a few minutes. But on Wednesday eve I had a strong pain in my lower abdomen, not localised but going from one side to another, had hot flushes plus pins and needles in my arms and so about to faint. I sat down for 5mn and it slowly all went away.
Today I am feeling quite better and overall good with mild lower abd pain ones in a while.
All of that happened with no bleeding or spotting.
Should I worry or just wait until the 24th for my first ultrasound?
Thank you for your help.

I would advise you to contact your doctor or midwife as soon as possible to discuss these symptoms. This is important both to establish whether there are any issues with your pregnancy but also to put your mind at ease if there isn't.
I wish you all the very best of luck for your pregnancy. Do let us know how you are going.
17th April 2013 05:09 PM #3
Hi Eli - Welcome to our forum. We hope you get lots of support here. There are quite a few different causes of pain early pregnancy - sometimes it is a minor issues that resolves itself and sometimes the cause can be more signficant such as ectopic pregnancy. It is important to speak to your midwife or doctor about any unusal pain. It may be nothing but it is better to be safe and have it checked out.

Cisco WLC 4404/5508 Web Authentication by AD Security Groups
I'm searching for a solution to web authenticate users within a specific Active Directory Security Group. I tried to authenticate over Radius with Cisco Secure ACS and Network Access Restrictions. But NAR only works with Layer 2 authentication. And Web Authentication over LDAP can only be used with User Objects.
Any ideas?
best regards,
You and maldehne are saying the correct thing. However, this is some kind of limitation that cisco should improve in the future. classifying users based on groups in AD is more flexible than classifying based on OU's when using LDAP. If there is anything that can be implemented to classify users based on AD groups at Layer 3 auth level that will be very useful functionality for cisco products.

GSA Greens the US Border, Opens LEED-Gold Border Station in Calais, Maine
Recovery Act-Funded Land Port of Entry is Model of Sustainable Design
November 23, 2009
Contact: Paula Santangelo, (617) 565-5800
CALAIS, Maine – The U.S. General Services Administration and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security opened a new state-of-the-art, green land port of entry in Calais, Maine, partially funded by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act.
Part of GSA's high-performance green building program, the port was built to achieve LEED Gold certification from the U.S. Green Building Council for comprehensive use of sustainable design and technology. Recycled, reused, and locally-available materials were used during construction. The facility conserves energy by bringing natural light into every occupied space, and conserves water by using low-flow fixtures that consume 40 percent less water than traditional plumbing.
"Thanks to funding from the Recovery Act, we were able to make this building a national example of sustainable design and construction," said GSA Chief Architect Les Shepherd. "The green technologies employed in this Recovery Act project created jobs in both traditional construction sectors and emerging green industries."
National and state officials gathered today to unveil the new land port of entry, marking the completion of a $65 million construction project. Other speakers at the ceremony included David Jacobson, U.S. Ambassador to Canada; Sen. Susan Collins; Rep. Michael Michaud; Thomas Winkowski, Assistant Commissioner of Field Operations at U.S. Customs and Border Protection; and David Cole, Commissioner of the Maine Department of Transportation.
Located on a 50-acre site on the eastern border of Maine, the port was designed by Robert Siegel Architects of New York, and built by J&J Construction of Lowell, Mass. The facility is part of a larger infrastructure project that includes a new international bridge connecting the U.S. and Canada. The port is anticipated to become the eighth busiest international crossing on the northern border.
The new inspection facility provides for agency expansion space and alleviates traffic congestion from downtown Calais and Canada. It is equipped with state-of-the-art security equipment that allows for efficient secondary commercial vehicle inspection. Occupants include the Department of Homeland Security/Customs and Border Protection, Food and Drug Administration, and GSA.
GSA was appropriated $5.5 billion under the Recovery Act to convert federal buildings into high-performance green buildings, and build new energy-efficient federal buildings, courthouses, and land ports of entry. These projects will deliver lasting progress towards modernizing the nation's infrastructure, reducing the Federal government's consumption of energy and water, and increasing the use of clean and renewable sources of energy.
Founded in 1949, GSA manages more than 11 percent of the government's total procurement dollars and $30 billion in federal assets, including 8,600 government-owned or leased buildings and 213,000 vehicles.
GSA helps preserve our past and define our future, as a steward of more than 480 historic properties, and as manager of USA.gov, the official portal to federal government information and services.
GSA's mission to provide superior workplaces, expert technology solutions, acquisition services, purchasing and E-Gov travel solutions and management policies, at best value, allows federal agencies to focus on their core missions.

If you have a satellite office or even an office trailer way out at the back end of the yard where you've wished you could do some things by remote control, now's the time to make that a reality.
A new service from iControl Networks, Palo Alto, Calif., lets you monitor and control remote offices via the Internet using a standard browser on your PC, cell phone, or PDA. Because it ties into existing technologies rather than being a stand-alone hard-wired system, it's easy to install and set up.
The iControl system can alert you to maintenance needs, provide limited security information, and allow you to switch certain things on or off, such as a light. It uses cameras, sensors, and other devices placed at a home or business to get pictures and alarm information, as well as send text or e-mail messages to let you know what's going on.
The key piece of hardware is the iControl box connected to your local area network using a standard Ether-net cable. That device enables the system to remain connected to the Internet without having to go through a local PC that would have to be on all the time. Of course, it does require a broadband Internet connection and a subscription to the iControl service, which is $14.95 a month.
Pick your version
The company offers standard, advanced, and premium starter kits that allow you to jump in with as big a splash as you wish. The standard starter kit costs $599 and includes an iControl box, web camera, door/window sensor, lamp module, motion sensor, and key-chain wireless remote.
For $100 more, the advanced starter kit includes a wireless camera instead. And if you're interested in being able to raise and lower the temperature, you can opt for the $849 premium starter kit, which includes the wireless camera and an iControl thermostat. Other available modules include sensors for water, freezing temperatures, carbon monoxide, heat, and smoke.
If it's beginning to sound a little complicated, don't worry. It turns out that most of the sensor modules don't require wires. You can just hook the control box into your network, place the sensors using double-sided tape, and you're ready to configure the system.
That's where the subscription to the iControl service comes in. Each user has a secure, personal portal he can access through a Web browser on a PC, PDA, or cell phone. That's how you configure, view, and manage the service. The software is Web-based, so there is nothing additional to install on your equipment.
Keeping a record
Through the Web portal, you can easily see the current status of the remote sensors, a record of which sensors have been activated and when, pictures from the Web camera, and any device schedules you have set up. It's also where you can set schedules for devices to activate, as well as pre-define actions when devices are unexpectedly triggered.
You also can receive e-mail or text message alerts when devices are triggered. The tabular organization also makes it easy to navigate.

Acu-Life Massage Sandals are based on the principle of reflexology, which has been practiced for at least 5000 years. Reflexologists believe that each important organ and muscle is connected by a network of nerves to a tiny point on the foot where energy terminates.
Pressure applied to these nerve endings by AcuLife's hundreds of little rubber "fingers" creates a stimulus. This sets in motion an electrochemical impulse, thus releasing healthful energy along the nerve to corresponding organs.
Wear your new Acu-Life sandals 10-15 minutes a day for the first several days. As your feet adjust, gradually increase wearing time. Serenity of the spirit starts at the sole.

April 11, 2013
LARAMIE, Wyo. - The Mountain West Conference announced the 2013 conference football schedule on Thursday. The Wyoming Cowboys will open conference play on the road at Air Force on Saturday, Sept. 21. Wyoming's 2013 Mountain West home opener will be Saturday Oct. 12 versus New Mexico. The following week, on Saturday, Oct. 19, Wyoming will host Colorado State. The Cowboys will play four of their six home games between Sept. 7 and Oct. 19. The only home games that fall after Oct. 19 are a Nov. 9 meeting with Fresno State and a Nov. 23 contest that will see the renewal of an old rivalry with Hawai`i that was last played in 1997.
All of Wyoming's 2013 games are scheduled for Saturdays. Game times and television coverage will be announced at a future date.
"It is great to see the schedule and how it lines up as we head into the first year of divisional play in the Mountain West," said Wyoming head coach Dave Christensen. "The addition of a conference championship game at the end of the season is something I believe will be exciting for all the teams in the conference to build toward throughout the season.
"I think our schedule is a good one for our team and our fans. We open conference play early in the season at Air Force (on Sept. 21), which will give our fans an opportunity to travel down to the Academy for an early fall game. We have our first bye week following our final non-conference game at Texas State, and then come back the next two weeks to host two of our long-time rivals in October in New Mexico and Colorado State. We'll get another bye before we enter the final third of our schedule. I like the schedule, and I know I speak for our team when I say we can't wait to kick the season off."
In 2013, the Wyoming Cowboys will, for the second consecutive year, host archrival Colorado State (on Oct. 19) in War Memorial Stadium for the annual "Border War". Wyoming's other conference home games in 2013 will include: New Mexico (Oct. 12), Fresno State (Nov. 9) and Hawai`i (Nov. 23) . The Cowboys Mountain West road trips this coming season will take them to: Air Force (Sept. 21), San Jose State (Oct. 26), Boise State (Nov. 16) and Utah State (Nov. 30).
Including Wyoming's 2013 season opener on Aug. 31 in Lincoln, Neb., versus the Nebraska Cornhuskers, the Cowboys will face six teams that played in bowl games at the conclusion of the 2012 season. UW's other five opponents who appeared in bowl games are all conference foes -- Air Force, Boise State, Fresno State, San Jose State and Utah State.
"With the teams returning in our league from last season, and the addition of two bowl teams in San Jose State and Utah State, the Mountain West will be an outstanding conference," added Christensen. "Every team in our league will present a great challenge, but our team is looking forward to that challenge. We start the season on the road at Nebraska, and five of our eight conference games will be against teams who played in bowl games last season. Every week should feature some great games."
Earlier this year, the Mountain West's directors of athletics formed two football divisions based upon common geographic regions and traditional rivalries, while also creating the first Mountain West Football Championship Game. Beginning in the fall of 2013, Mountain West football membership will include: Air Force, Boise State, Colorado State, New Mexico, Utah State and Wyoming in the Mountain Division and Fresno State, Hawai`i, Nevada, San Diego State, San Jose State and UNLV in the West Division.
The inaugural Mountain West Football Championship Game will be played December 7, 2013, at the home stadium of the divisional champion with the highest BCS ranking.
Each of the 12 Mountain West football teams conference schedules feature eight conference games, with five of those games coming against the teams in each school's division and the other three games being played against teams from the Mountain West's other division.
As a member of the "Mountain Division", Wyoming will play Air Force, Boise State, Colorado State, New Mexico and Utah State every season, and will play three games versus teams from the "West Division". Wyoming's three "West Division" foes for the 2013 and 2014 seasons will be Fresno State, Hawai`i and San Jose State.
Each institution will play four home and four road conference games each season, and will play every Mountain West opponent home and away during each four-year cycle.
Intra-divisional opponents will alternate sites annually (three home/two away or two home/three away).

Not getting pregnant after my first miscarriage.
Hi all
I am 22 and got pregnant for the first time after 1 and half years of my marriage. Boy unfortunately I got miscarriage on 3 months and half. I used drugs consulting a doctor to clean things off. Everything was fine except I used to feel pain on the lower part of my belly. After that we (me and my husband) are trying to get a baby. Almost seven months have been elapsed so far but I am not getting pregnant again.
I want to know how I should proceed not to get miscarriage this time. Its really frustrating and painful.

Hi Sima,
It's really important that you do at least 3 months of preconception care in order to increase your chances of avoiding another miscarriage.
Have you been watching your personal signs of fertility so that you know when to make love and if you're ovulating?
Warm Regards,

With all this talk of certain Republican Christians and their alleged connection to Dominionism--a view inaccurately ascribed to several Christian writers in articles published in the New York Times and the New Yorker--there's one Christian that our East-of-the-Hudson betters seemed to miss. Here are his shocking comments, where he explains how America's laws should reflect God's eternal law: Just as the prophets of the eighth century B.C. left their villages and carried their "thus saith the … [Read more...]

My general rule of thumb at CW is that I go by Sherdog records unless i 100% know it's wrong and i can't database it e.g. Paul Redmond i know is 5-3 but is 4-3 on Sherdog cos he chose to fight on a show that doesn't record results but i know he won that missing fight, i just can't prove it to Sherdog.
I'm not connected in any way to Robert or his team to get it updated, I do agree with you about the updating records, have seen you post about it more than once, fighters/coaches should check with promoters that they record results before fighting on thier show.
Cracking fight, gutted i didnt get to see robs fight on his last outing, a combination of warming up for my own fight and him getting the job done in seconds.

A crocodile making itself at home
How do you manage to get a
crocodile to pose in your living room
? And, even worse, how do you get him to smile? If you were to see that same animal up close in a Florida swamp, you'd probably be terrified, but this one here looks so adorable, it almost makes you want to pet it.
The same is true of the cow, it's totally in it element. Or the llama that looks like it hasn't hurt a fly in all its life. Only a real animal lover could possibly capture the best of these animals.
The book's author
Animal House
Catherine Ledner
is a prestigious photographer whose work has appeared in the New York Times Magazine, Vanity Fair and Travel & Leisure. She grew up in New Orleans surrounded by all sorts of animals: rabbits, rats, turtles... so it's no wonder she's not afraid of a silly old beaver.
By photographing these animals outside their usual surroundings and putting them
in front of elegant wallpaper backdrops
, the photographer manages to highlight each animal's personality, capture its essence, and also create a curious habitat. With these backgrounds, they look more like cartoon characters than actual animals. How could they possibly have been so comfortable posing?
We can only imagine it must not have been easy to work with all these animals, but the result is worth it.

NEWTOWN, Conn. (AP) -- A single bell repeatedly rang a sad, slow beat Thursday at the Connecticut funeral of a 6-year-old girl killed by a gunman at her elementary school, while a cardinal in New York compared a slain teacher to Jesus for giving up her life to protect others.
In Newtown, the site of the shooting rampage, grim-faced mourners hurried through the packed parking lot of St. Rose of Lima Church to attend the funeral Mass for 6-year-old Catherine Hubbard.
Catherine's family said in her obituary that she would be remembered for her passion for animals and her constant smile.
Catherine was among the 20 students and six teachers killed when Adam Lanza, armed with a military-style assault rifle, broke into Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown on Dec. 14 and opened fire. Lanza killed his mother at her home before the attack and committed suicide at the school as police closed in.
Funerals were also scheduled in Connecticut on Thursday for 7-year-old Grace McDonnell and 6-year-olds Benjamin Andrew Wheeler, Jesse Lewis and Allison Wyatt.
In New York, Cardinal Timothy Dolan told mourners at the funeral of Anne Marie Murphy that the teacher "brought together a community, a nation, a world, now awed by her own life and death." Murphy's father, Hugh McGowan, said authorities told him that she died trying to protect her young pupils.
"Like Jesus, Annie laid down her life for her friends," Dolan said. "Like Jesus, Annie's life and death brings light, truth, goodness and love to a world often shrouded in darkness, evil, selfishness and death."
About 15 people arrived at St. Mary of the Assumption Church in Katonah, N.Y., in a yellow school bus with "Newtown" written on its side. The church quickly filled and about 100 mourners waited outside.
Murphy's brother-in-law Thomas Newman read a brief statement before the service.
Her relatives "pray, for all the families touched so terribly, that God may help these feelings of such great pain and grief pass quickly; that they be replaced with only happy thoughts and joyous memories of those we have lost," they said.
A long line of mourners waited to enter a memorial service for teacher Lauren Gabrielle Rousseau on Thursday.
A U.S. Justice Department official told The Associated Press on Thursday that Attorney General Eric Holder will travel to Newtown on Friday to meet with first responders and law enforcement officials. The trip comes after Holder met with Vice President Joe Biden, who is tasked with leading an administration-wide effort to create new proposals for reducing gun violence.
The official spoke on the condition of anonymity because the trip hadn't been publicly announced.
In addition to the services, the families of 6-year-old Olivia Rose Engel, behavioral therapist Rachel Marie D'Avino and school psychologist Mary Sherlach have calling hours Thursday.
At least nine funerals and wakes were held Wednesday, and more are set for Friday and Saturday.
Associated Press writer Frederic J. Frommer in Washington, Jim Fitzgerald in Katonah, N.Y., and Eilleen AJ Connelly in Newtown contributed to this report.

text: Andrew Stern filed for divorce from model Katie Cleary three months before his death. He did so because she was cheating on him every chance she got and doing so in a very public and humiliating way. When photos of her with Leonardo DiCaprio emerged, that was the final straw and he killed himself. In his will, he leaves everything to his parents. Katie sucked most of the money out of the marriage while they were together and all Andrew had left when he died was about $400K. Three years prior to his marriage to Katie, Andrew had a will prepared. Katie says that Andrew made one after they were married but she can't find it right now, but knows it exists and will fight any proceeding to give the money to Andrew's parents. Katie should just walk away from this and move on with her life. All this is going to do is make people think she really was just after Andrew's money and nothing else. Just walk away.
