Our Holistic treatment concept evolves from the following systems.
Ayurveda :
Ayurveda is a holistic healing science which comprises of two words, Ayu and Veda. Ayu means life and Veda means knowledge or science. Ayurvedic treatment does not mean suppressing the main symptoms and creating some new ones as side effects of the main treatment. It is to remove the root cause and give permanent relief.
Allopathy :
Allopathy, also known as the Modern System of Medicine, developed in the West. A system, which treats a disease with drugs having opposite effects to existing symptoms, each successive discovery and development in Allopathy, is the result of extensive research.
Therapeutic yoga :
Yoga originated over 5,000 years ago in India, and has many forms.Yoga can be a means of achieving a sense of mental and physical well being, and is also effective in the treatment of a variety of conditions ranging from stress and high blood pressure to tendonitis and muscle strain.
Meditation is considered a form of mental therapy. Although there are many forms of meditation, such as transcendental, Zen, and mindfulness, they all have in common the calming of the mind. It can be used to help in the management of stress,chronic pain etc.
Pranic healing:
Pranic healing is based on the techniques on how to gather and be empowered by the energies of nature (air, sun ground, water, trees) It is the latest in energy healing. It was developed at the Institute of Inner Studies in the Philippines by Grand Master Choa Kok Sui, a man with a rare depth of knowledge relating to the human energy field.
Naturopathy :
Naturopathy is an eclectic compilation of doctrines and practices of natural healing, as well as a way of life, and a concept of employing various practical holistic means of preventing and treating human imbalance and suffering. The capacity of the body-mind to heal itself is the central tenet of Naturopathy.
Homeopathy :
Used worldwide by over 500 million people, is based upon the "law of similars"-that is, illnesses are treated with substances which, in their natural state, are capable of producing symptoms of the illness, yet develop the power to cure those same symptoms when homeopathically prepared into their extremely dilute counterparts.

Thought leader Joe Gollner, who has extensive experience with taxonomies, DITA, S1000D and all aspects of content management tackles a topic with a new twists in this week's eSeminar. In "Getting Real: Electronic Documents for the Field" Joe will share several case studies in which up-to-the-minute structured data needs to be accessed in harsh physical environments where iPads and iPhones wash out.
Most of us take for granted that in a few years the majority of our content will be consumed via tablets like iPads or smartphones like iPhones. But we assume that all of us are "on the grid," not in some remote, desert or arctic region where eReader devices must operate in bright sunlight and go for hours without a battery recharge.
Gollner, who has an impressive military career before he entered the jungles of structured data has several projects that require devices to work in environments like the one described above.
Our eSeminar takes place Tues April 17th at 10 AM Pacific, and you click here to register. Like all of our eSeminars, this one will be recorded and will eventually be accessible from this website.
We hope you can join us for what promises to be a fascinating exploration and discussion.

Man shot to death by CHP after Oakland chase
Updated 6:25 pm, Tuesday, January 21, 2014
California Highway Patrol officers shot and killed a man in East Oakland early Tuesday at the end of a car chase, authorities said.
The incident began about 2:45 a.m. when two CHP officers in a patrol cruiser spotted a BMW X5 sport utility vehicle without license plates on High Street south of Interstate 580 and tried to pull it over, authorities said. The SUV turned out to have been stolen, police said.
The driver, later identified as 19-year-old Antonio Mestas of Oakland, refused to stop and led the officers on a chase through city streets, authorities said. The pursuit ended when the driver crashed into two parked cars on East 15th Street, a dead-end street east of 57th Avenue, said Officer Johnna Watson, an Oakland police spokeswoman.
Latest news videos
Mestas had a loaded gun and ran from the car, Watson said. A confrontation ensued, she said, and both officers opened fire.
ShotSpotter, the city's gunfire-detection system, recorded seven shots. Police did not say whether the suspect had fired any of the shots.
CHP officers performed CPR on Mestas, but he died at the scene.
The shooting is under investigation by the CHP, Oakland police and the Alameda County district attorney's office. The names of the CHP officers were withheld.

A study by the Gallup Center for Muslim Studies in the United States of America has provided wide-ranging information about American Islam.
The report, the result of a lengthy study last year in the United States of America as a whole and involving interviews with 319,000 Muslims, showed that Islam in the USA is rising fast. Center's executive director Dalia Mogahed said, "Our study reveals an ethnically heterogeneous, politically diverse, well-educated and uniquely American Muslim community." Ahmed Younis, a senior analyst of the center, said: "Muslim women are at least as likely as Muslim men to hold a college or post-graduate degree, and Muslim women are more likely to work in a professional environment than women from most other US religious groups. ... Forty-two percent of Muslim women had degrees compared with 39 percent of Muslim men in the United States." It is estimated there are some 7-8 million Muslims of different races and ethnic backgrounds living in America.
In another study conducted in the USA it emerged that the number of Muslims in the country is rising. According to one wide-ranging study by the American Religious Identity research center, the level of Christians in the country has dropped, while the number of Americans describing themselves as Muslims has risen to 0.6%. The growth of eastern religions such as Buddhism has slowed.

DAVID Laws, MP for the Yeovil constituency, has welcomed new research, published by the Association of Accounting Technicians, which has shown that new apprentices in Yeovil constituency provided a boost of £2,395,000 to the local economy in 2012/13.
The research shows that every time a local company hires an apprentice, their bottom line gets an average boost of £2,013.
This happens immediately, while the apprentice is being trained, and represents the benefit after typical wage and training costs for the South West are deducted.
Last year, 1,190 people started an apprenticeship in Yeovil.
Since 2010 the coalition Government has helped to create more than 1.5 million apprenticeships.
The Liberal Democrat's £1bn Youth Contract is supporting work experience, wage incentives and apprenticeships which will all help young people to find work.
David Laws said: "Back in 2010, this Government made apprenticeships a top priority and I am delighted that here in Yeovil we are seeing the benefits of that decision. This money, £2.4 million, has made a real difference to the local economy.
"Apprenticeship numbers have now doubled and the figures show that this is great news for growth and for each business that takes on an apprentice. I would urge businesses in Yeovil to think about employing an apprentice."
The Chief Executive of AAT, Jane Scott Paul, added: "It's really important that employers know there are apprenticeships for all shapes and sizes, including those in non-traditional sectors like accounting and law. That's how apprentices boosted UK firms by £1.8 billion last year."

Even by China's standards, Wuhan Iron & Steel is enormous. As we drive along the four-lane highway beside the 22 square-kilometre site – with its eight blast furnaces, hot and cold rolling mills, port on the Yangtze River and Red Steel City workers' town where 300,000 people live – the scale of Mao Zedong's favourite steelworks is staggering.

Penn Game Notes (PDF) / Lafayette Game Notes (PDF)
The Penn-Lafayette Series
*The Quakers and the Leopards have met 45 times, with Penn dominating the series 40-5 including wins each of the last two seasons. That said, Lafayette has won two times in the last five meetings.
*This is one of the most consistent non-conference series Penn has played over the last few decades. In fact, since the 1985-86 season these two teams have NOT played in only two seasons (1987-88 and 2006-07).
*Penn is 160-51 against programs that currently compete in the Patriot League, including a 73-66 loss at Lehigh earlier this season.
I Know You!
Penn head coach Jerome Allen will go up against one of his coaching mentors Tuesday night; longtime Lafayette head coach Fran O'Hanlon was an assistant under Fran Dunphy here at Penn during the time that Coach Allen was wearing the Red and Blue as a player.
Countdown to 1,700
Penn has won 1,699 games as a program; with one more, the Quakers will become the 11th NCAA Division I program to reach 1,700 wins. (Indiana recently became the 10th, scoring its 1,700th win on December 19 against Mount St. Mary's.)
Home is Where the Wins Are
Penn entered the 2012-13 season with 803 wins at The Palestra, which opened in 1927. In an informal survey of the other NCAA Division I programs, only Washington (921 wins at Hec Edmundson Pavilion) and Butler (812 wins at Hinkle Fieldhouse) boast more wins in their current home than the Quakers. The Edmundson Pavilion was opened in 1927, while the Bulldogs opened Hinkle in 1928.
Quaker Notemeal From La Salle
*Penn played for the third straight game without leading scorer Fran Dougherty, who is out due to mononucleosis. (He is not expected to play on Tuesday night.)
*Penn had 43 rebounds, a team high in the Jerome Allen coaching era, took a season-high 61 shots, and tied a season high with four blocked shots.
*Penn's bench players outscored the starters, 36-21, the third time this season the bench outscored the starters.
*Freshman Tony Hicks had 14 points, a season/career high, for his second-straight double-figure scoring game and fourth this season.
*Hicks led Penn in scoring for the second time this season (also at Penn State).
*Junior Miles Cartwright had 11 points, his fourth straight double-digit scoring game and team-leading ninth this season, and tied a career high with two blocked shots.
*Cartwright went 4-of-4 at the foul line; he has made 10 in a row, 31 of his last 33, and is 53-of-58 (.914) over his last 10 contests.
*Junior Dau Jok had a season/career high in rebounds (11) and became the third different Penn player this season to have a double-figure rebound total in a game (also Dougherty and sophomore Greg Louis); he also tied a season/career high with eight points.
*Jok led Penn in boards, the fifth different player to lead them in rebounding in a game this season.
*Freshman Darien Nelson-Henry set season/career highs in points (8) and rebounds (8), and has now scored 27 points in the last four games (6.8 ppg).
*Sophomore Camryn Crocker set a season/career high in assists (6).
*Sophomore Henry Brooks had eight points, giving him 28 points in the last three games (9.3 ppg).

There was one for sale last month on AM. The seller mentioned that if you ordered a new one today they couldn't guarantee the 1/10 min pv
Questar has always been able to deliver this level of quality to it's customers if they so desired. In the 50th it is guaranteed and included in the price. In regular production there are quite a few this good to, though not guaranteed. For that reassurance you pay a little extra.
When I startested my Q7 it was better than 1/10th wave. The Zygo interferometer confirmed that later. I have startested older Q 3 1/2's that were of this level of quality too. They were regular production optics. Have not seen or tested recent Q 3 1/2's, so I cannot comment on those.
Posted 08 February 2013 - 07:30 AM
Posted 08 February 2013 - 10:00 AM
Last year I had asked Questar about ordering a Q7 with 1/10 min optics and they said they wouldn't do it fyi.
Thanks for the update. In that case one might choose to buy used and startest before finalizing the deal.
Posted 11 October 2013 - 02:31 PM
How many Q 50th are left? Does anyone know?
Posted 11 October 2013 - 04:13 PM
Last year I had asked Questar about ordering a Q7 with 1/10 min optics and they said they wouldn't do it fyi.
Well that would be a departure from previous years. When I purchased my Astro 7 from C7, I was told that they could write a contract for a specified PV error - for extra $$. Standard offering is "diffraction limited" i.e. 1/4 wave (all four surfaces), though placard in C7 museum stated that many exceed this. The expectation for a standard 3.5Q is 1/8 wave but I don't know if that is still guaranteed.
Posted 11 October 2013 - 06:39 PM
I did not request any special number
Posted 11 October 2013 - 08:39 PM
JM, you got a great number (remember the TV show Room 222).
Posted 12 October 2013 - 10:10 AM
Posted 12 October 2013 - 07:17 PM
on 3/2012 Jim R at Questar estimated 2 dozen left
on 6/2013 SN 222 was delivered through Company 7
on 8/2013 SN 244 was delivered
Your guess is as good as it gets unless you call Questar.

I've always wondered why the have not issued an anniversary
Now there is an idea for the 75th anniversary model. I was hoping that they might bring out a special limited edition Q7

Posted 22 October 2013 - 04:40 AM
I am so looking forward to this scope, in so many ways. I only started looking for a proper scope about a month ago as a treat for myself after a rough year.
Then I thought, "What about a Questar?" as I'd always loved the form factor and the finish. When I found out that the Questar wasn't just a pretty face, that the mechanics and optics are second to none, and they were still making a limited edition model that had all the options I wanted as standard, I pounced.
I won't have the scope for several months, and yet it feels good already! As for the cost, my wife said that if she knew it was going to cheer me up this much we should've bought one a long time ago! With my new-found optimism, I'm sure she means that in the nicest possible way.

A man who launched a vicious unprovoked assault on a 72-year-old man in the street has been jailed for two years.
Bartosz Radoch had been drinking heavily when he set upon the pensioner who was minding his own business walking home along Gloucester Road in Trowbridge.
After grabbing Anthony Gardner by the collar and shaking him 'like a rag doll', the 25-year-old threw him to the ground, leaving him with badly cut hands from the gravel.
As he was being shaken, the victim, who was one his way home from an evening drink in the Conservative Club pleaded 'I'm 72. I don't want any trouble'.
But while he was down, Radoch, who needed a Polish interpreter for the hearing at Swindon Crown Court on Friday, kicked him to the body.
Mr Gardner again moaned 'I'm bleeding, I'm bleeding,' as blood poured from cuts to his hand and knees, but Radoch continued the attack replying 'You tell the police'..
He pulled the pensioner to his feet and then punched him hard with a clenched fist, sending him back to the ground with a deep cut to his right eyebrow.
Radoch then walked off while Mr Gardner managed to crawl back to the Conservative Club, where staff raised the alarm.
He was taken to the Royal United Hospital in Bath where he had to undergo surgery on his hand.
Hannah Squire, prosecuting, said Radoch was arrested nearby as he matched the description of the attacker and his victim's blood was found on his clothes.
When he was questioned about the attack at about 11pm on Friday, July 5 last year he said he had been drinking heavily at the Polish Club and could remember nothing.
As a result of the attack Miss Squire said the victim still had problems with his hand which meant he could not do the gardening or go fishing.
It also meant he was now scared to walk home having been a five-day-a-week regular at the Conservative Club for many years.
Radoch, of Henderson Close, pleaded guilty to a charge of actual bodily harm.
Mike Jeary, defending, said his client, who is married with an 18-month-old daughter, could offer no explanation for the way he behaved towards the victim.
"He had been working on his car and goes for a drink and he takes it too far. He drinks too much. He remembers going to the club and doesn't remember leaving," he said.
Jailing him, Judge Tim Mousley QC said "I am at a loss to explain what could have led you to do this. I am not going to speculate as to any potential motive.
"About a month after the incident Mr Gardner describes himself as someone who has become very nervous and it has made him feel extremely vulnerable.
"He was unable to cope with some of the basic everyday tasks and because of the problem with his hand he had given up his pastimes of fishing and gardening.
"With a degree of stoicism he describes himself as being knocked for six by what you did."

The nation's top organization of professors issued a letter to LSU this week calling for an end to what it called the "seeming disregard" for faculty input taking place as the university is going through its current reorganization.
The LSU Board of Supervisors is working to consolidate the LSU System and Baton Rouge campus under a single leader. LSU faculty has described the ongoing process as "hasty and erratic," and has criticized the board for paying lip service to faculty inclusion while effectively shutting them out of the process.
LSU Board Chairman Hank Danos did not return two calls seeking comment Wednesday, but he previously has denied that faculty hasn't been involved. After a Dec. 7 board meeting, Danos called the complaints "a little confusing," saying that faculty opinions were used to help draft the 25-page report from a consulting firm that kicked off the reorganization.
Danos also mentioned a series of faculty breakfast meetings the board participated in, and several more informal meetings he and other board members have had with faculty members throughout the process.
But this week's note from the American Association of University Professors contends those efforts were largely symbolic. The seven-page letter is essentially a politely worded warning that LSU could wind up on the AAUP's censure list for the second time in less than 12 months.
The Washington, D.C.-based group, which represents about 40,000 faculty members nationwide, voted June 16 to censure the university for what it described as mistreatment of faculty. The move gave LSU's Baton Rouge campus the distinction of being the only public flagship university on the national list. Censure status is generally seen as a blemish on a school's reputation that can hamper faculty recruitment and retention.
The letter written by AAUP Associate Secretary B. Robert Kreiser airs out a number of grievances the group has with the university. When contacted Wednesday, an AAUP official said Kreiser had left for the day and wouldn't be available to comment until Thursday.
Kreiser says in his letter that there is an expectation at a well-run university that "faculty should play an active and meaningful role" in matters that affect an institution's governance structure. He specifically mentions the LSU board's surprise vote on Oct. 26 to combine the LSU System president and Baton Rouge chancellor positions.
Despite faculty objections they had no time to comment on the proposition before the vote, Kreiser said the board has essentially forged ahead with the decision to reorganize LSU's structure from the top down and to launch a search for a new leader, with the same disregard for faculty opinions.
Kreiser cited LSU's Presidential Search Committee having only one faculty member; the 10-member Transition Advisory Team leading the reorganization process having no faculty members; and the official job description for a new president not mentioning the need for credentials as further evidence that faculty are being intentionally marginalized.
He further acknowledges that while the Transition Advisory Team's Academic Subcommittee has several faculty members on it, none of the remaining four subcommittees has faculty representation.
Kreiser ends his letter calling on LSU to pivot toward more faculty input.
"We hope that the administration and board will address the faculty's concerns and do so in a manner that is respectful of widely accepted professional norms within the academic community," he wrote.
LSU Faculty Senate President Kevin Cope, a frequent critic of the reorganization, characterized the letter as a warning to LSU with an olive branch attached. The LSU board, he said, "may mean well, but they misunderstand the true meaning of consultation. They may listen at times but then they go ahead and do what they've wanted to do anyway."
Cope said he's optimistic that board will change course after feeling the brunt of both local and national criticism. He chalked up the board's prior actions to "inexperience or naiveté."
"I want to emphasize that the faculty wants to bring LSU into accord with the best practices that should be undertaken by a serious, research university," Cope said. "That can't be done with a group of gubernatorial appointees. It's irresponsible for the supervisors to disregard the people with real expertise."

A lot of discussion occurred here about new forum software and merging of old databases and such. I wanted to say more, but thought that thread was not the right place to do it so I wish to continue the conversation here.
Here is my vision: new forum software in which this forum and the old dump are merged and posts and usernames are claimable. The old posts would be available at their old URLs, so that old bookmarks would work, and today's posts would also be available at their today links although they'd redirect to a modern URL for whatever software the forum would use. The old posts would be perma-locked as historical, though ideally it would be using the new software so that you could click the usernames and go to the new forum when relevant. I have absolutely 0 desire to try to merge the old and current data in some reconcilable way without new software. I would rather continue where we are now with phpBB and lose all the old content for the time being.
That's how I feel. If the rest of the community feels differently I will support those choices to the best of my ability with the privileges I have on this forum.
So that this is clear upfront so those who still don't know: jkbbwr is the only one with the ability to deploy software changes right now. He claims "real life has gotten in the way" which I respect in terms of his lack of presence here but certainly not in terms of utter abandonment of us without enabling some replacement. (See: history.) He hasn't given stranac, metulburr, bunburya, myself or anyone else shell access because he wants to maintain control. There's little any of us can do about that.
I think at one point, before the forum crash, someone suggested an exodus because the old admin was neglectful, we only had a single moderator (miss you KDoiron!), and spam was a HUGE issue. The community basically poo-poo'd the point and I was probably one of them. I wouldn't suggest it now either. I wouldn't be surprised though if the forum goes down for days or weeks again in the future, and the IRC channel was a simple way for the regulars to organically move to somewhere that makes more sense.
Because of that prospect, and because of the possibility of beating him to the punch and simply offering a more tenable near-term solution, I am interested in developing alternative software. Just as jkbbwr as expressed, I have a life so this hasn't happened yet. At some point though I'm going to be home alone and feeling productive and I'll start hacking something out (jumping off of my fork here which I thought was from Kebap but the username I forked from isn't the same). My desire would be to use Flask and MongoDB to create a RESTful interface and Dust that would make use of it, because doing so inherently gives us a forum API as older members will remember. (The company I work for uses REST and Dust, though designing our forum this way does not benefit me, I just think it's good design.)
ochichinyezaboombwa recently extracted dumps of the old and this forum's databases. This means that as of now it'd be easier to create and test new forum software. I actually had taken a whack before at the extraction but failed because of my lack of SQL or time investment, and after that I didn't make any more software attempts because I wasn't sure that things could be merged anyway (plus lack of test data, lack of foresight about what the database would look like, etc.). This also means that if it's what the community wants, something other than my vision could be done based on this new development, including a regular phpBB merge (even though I don't want this) which I believe stranac and I have the ability to do, perhaps others as well. It's up to you all.
So yeah. Feel free to discuss, express outrage, express enthusiasm, get started with your own software, ask questions, present alternatives, or whatever!

It was blue versus orange in the earnings race this week, with both Home Depot and Lowe's reporting performance from the first quarter this year.
Lowe's, the second largest home improvement store, reported net earnings of $540 million, up 2.5 percent year over year. Sales for the first quarter were weaker than last year at the same time -- down 0.5 percent to $13.1 billion from $13.2 billion in the first quarter of 2012.
The slip in sales was attributed to the cold and wet spring most of the country slogged through this year.
"Last year, weather was very warm in the first quarter and drove garden sales. This year was a chilly, wet spring, so spring started very late," says Robin Diedrich, senior consumer analyst at investment firm EdwardJones.
Home Depot, the largest home improvement store in the world, also dealt with the inclement weather but had a few advantages working in its favor, according to Diedrich.
Home Depot ended the quarter with sales of $19.1 billion, up 7.4 percent year over year. Net earnings were $1.2 billion, up from $1 billion for the same period in 2012.
"Their stores are in better markets -- larger, faster-growing areas than Lowe's," says Diedrich.
"Another reason, more particularly this quarter, Home Depot tends to have more of the professional market -- more contractors as a percentage of their mix. Lowe's has more do-it-yourself customers. That has been favorable to Home Depot as the housing market is improving and people are spending on bigger projects in the home," she says.
Lowe's isn't down for the count though. Diedrich thinks it has room to increase sales going forward. With the weather improving, seasonal sales should pick up, but also the company has been working to reset some of its products and pricing.
That means looking at the "combination of the types of products, brands and price points that they offer. Changing price, maybe having higher-quality products to offer, a broader range and pricing that is more to the market," Diedrich says.

Knee: Chondral Injury of the Lateral Tibial Plateau
—Molly | Rock and Ice Forum
Molly, Molly, Molly, what are we to do with you? I fear might be some practitioner love thing happening here. I may have to advise you to consult with someone else.I trust your bum is feeling better and your hamstring is back to full strength since our last exchange?The MRI report basically says that when you hit the ground, the end of your femur impacted the top of the tibia and gouged up a flap of the shiny synovial cartilage that covers the end of the bone in the joint.The scalpel is your friend. A chondral flap often breaks free and floats around the joint causing anatomical mischief. Your knee will lock randomly and before too long you'll face plant. Your partner will not want to walk near you for fear of being taken down as well. He may meet another woman as a result. It's just a feeling I get.The fracture site will possibly need some cartilage grafting, whereby the scalpel guy will harvest some cartilage and graft it back on. Fancy!You are out of climbing for a few months, and out of bouldering for quite a bit longer. A good surgeon will make all the difference. And then find a knee-rehab specialist who is highly recommended.

text: Editor's Note: This article was originally published at 7:50 a.m. EDT on Real Money on July 30. To see Jim Cramer's latest commentary as it's published, sign up for a free trial of Real Money.NEW YORK ( Real Money) -- Not all stocks lend themselves to buy recommendations. Some just lend themselves to admiration, because the companies behind them are so good that no one would argue with buying their shares. That's how I feel right now about Amazon ( AMZN), Netflix ( NFLX) and Tesla ( TSLA). These three stocks defy any valuation explanation, yet they remain buyable for those who love growth at all costs -- and they all have growth at all costs. Most stocks are valued by their price-to-earnings ratio. Others, because they are so new, get valued by a price-to-sales ratio. I am usually only comfortable putting my name on a stock as a buy if its P/E is less than 2x its growth rate. That's an arbitrary ratio but, after you have invested for 33 years, you pretty much know what your breaking point is -- and, while I have passed up on some real good stocks, this rule has kept me out of a lot of disasters. Other times, when I recognize that growth is accelerating and profitability could be on the horizon, I might be willing to take a leap of faith and recommend the stock as a speculation. In this case I'll know that, if it falters, there won't be much to show for it. That's gutsier, and I don't like to do it, but I also know that speculating wisely has made me a lot of money. These are rule-benders, and you bend rules only with an understanding that you could get clobbered. Finally, though, there are stocks that trade on no real moorings to any of these rules, powered higher by some invisible force or cult that can't be justified along any traditional lines. Sometimes there are whole armadas of these stocks, as there were at the time of the ticking dot-com bomb. Sometimes there are very few of them. Right now we're seeing three stocks that defy traditional valuation methods, yet are compelling as themes as -- yes -- love affairs that burn steamily. There's no real explanation here, other than pure lust for the product itself.

The biblical story of Noah has been told and depicted in numerous ways, from cute little kids tales to ferocious epics.
Darren Aronofsky's recent film version navigates a more adult interpretation — part psychological, part metaphorical, part blockbuster spectacle.
Noah is told by God — or voices in his head, depending on what you believe — that a mighty storm is coming and only he and his family, along with pairs of every other species, could be saved if he built an ark to ride it out.
The rest of humanity — deemed by God as too reprobate to continue living — along with the unfortunate beasts not chosen, would be wiped out.
"Noah" is uneven but continually interesting. Foremost is Russell Crowe's restless performance, which has a taste of madness to it.
Aronofsky captures both that intimacy and the vastness of the undertaking.
Occasionally, the film drifts into silliness. What it adds up to, like the passage from the Book of Genesis, is up to you.
Special editions
There are a number of box sets worth checking out. "The Big Chill: The Criterion Collection" is in-depth look at Lawrence Kasdan's film about a friends from the 1960s reuniting and coming to grips with their lives more than a decade later for the funeral of a friend.

There is now a Blu-ray 40th anniversary edition of "Woodstock."
And for puck fans, there is "Los Angeles Kings: 2014 Stanley Cup Champions," which chronicles the team's amazing run to the top.

mrseanpaul81 - Wednesday, January 09, 2013 - linkCan anybody confirm that the Galaxy Nexus supports WB? Reply
dferbr - Thursday, January 16, 2014 - linkHello,
I have tested this feature extensively and the result is that Galaxy Nexus does support AMR-WB but I was able to make it work only when using some particular basebands. As far as I can tell it works when you use some of the korean, japanese or australian basebands. However, I ran into issues which I was not able to resolve. These issues included occasional call drops or sound dropouts as the phone sometimes had to switch from WB to normal mode because of signal quality. I am not sure whether the cause is rather low quality of T-Mobile network here in Czech republic or if it is a problem of the phone because since I bought this phone I started to experience these issues and even after I got a replacement they did not seem to go away. Because these issues happen more often when using AMR-WB I finally switched to some other baseband that does not support AMR-WB but seems more stable with my operator's network. Reply
amdwilliam1985 - Wednesday, January 09, 2013 - linkWhat about international Samsung Galaxy S3 on TMobile network? Reply
deltatux - Wednesday, January 09, 2013 - linkThe Nexus S, Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 4 have the capabilities for HD Voice. WIND Mobile in Canada (my carrier) have HD Voice enabled for these devices and they use AMR-WB. Reply
eagle63 - Wednesday, January 09, 2013 - linkSo I'm in the service mode on my Galaxy S 3 (*#0011#). Should I be seeing something in here to validate that I'm picking up AMR-WB? I do see an entry here that says:
"SpeechVER: EFR FR not used"
No idea if that's related or not.. Reply
eagle63 - Wednesday, January 09, 2013 - linkok, I disconnected from WiFI and now I DO see "AMR 12.2 kbit/s" at the bottom of the service mode page. So I take it I'm good then?
This does bring another question though: If I'm connected to a WiFi hotspot, am I NOT getting HD voice? If yes, I assume that means that AMR-WB voice goes over the data network? (packet data instead of circuit-switched??) Reply
dferbr - Thursday, January 16, 2014 - linkAMR-WB is just a codec and setting for voice calls. It still has to go through your carrier's network. If you were using some SIP service then it would be able to transfer the data via wifi but this does not concern standard phone calls. Reply
DeeMann - Wednesday, January 09, 2013 - linkDo these calls ride on thier HSPA+ network - wht happens to two HD capable devices outside that environment; also +1 on the Wifi question Reply

WCU College of Osteopathic Medicine Partners with Rush Foundation Hospital
Hattiesburg, Miss., May 30, 2012 – The William Carey University College of Osteopathic Medicine (WCUCOM) has established a partnership with Rush Foundation Hospital in Meridian, enabling third-year medical students to complete their rotations at the clinic.
To show WCU's appreciation, Dr. Darrell Lovins, dean of the WCUCOM, presented a plaque to Wallace Strickland, CEO of Rush Medical Group, on May 17, in the presence of Dr. Lee Valentine, family practitioner with Rush Foundation Hospital, and other participating physicians. The WCUCOM has 637 preceptors from Mississippi, Louisiana, Tennessee, and Florida who have agreed to host the third year students for their clinical rotations.
The WCUCOM is in its second year of operation, and the members of the inaugural class, class of 2014, will begin their clinical rotations in August. Over the year, the students will each complete eight rotations, covering the areas of family medicine, emergency medicine, pediatrics, obstetrics and gynecology, internal medicine, and psychiatry for a span of one-two months for each area.

Connecting FEMLAB 3.0a & MATLAB
I installed matlab on my laptop which already had FEMLAB 3.0a installed. I would like to be able to edit & run one of my models via matlab. I have no idea where I put the installation disc (it's obviously been a while). Does anyone know how to manually link matlab with this (very old) version of FEMLAB.

Re: Connecting FEMLAB 3.0a & MATLAB
Hi Raine,
I have my doubts that version 3.0a, which as released in 2004, will be able to work with a version of MATLAB released 5 years later. To state the obvious, 3.0a wasn't developed to work with a version of MATLAB that didn't exist until 5 years later.

text: Stormynature 5198 Report post Posted March 20, 2013 (edited) This particular competition is starting early as so many creative writers are damnably slow writers. It will only happen this first time, future competitions will start on the end day/first day of a month (Game writing is done to timelines set by others - get used to it!). The situation. Your protagonist is at the bottom of an extensive cave system. His/her goal is to escape this cave. The task: You are to write an origination story of how your protagonist found themselves at that location, as well providing the elements of why he/she must escape that situation. Competition Closes: 30th April 2013 -------------- NOTE: Judging starts from now -- early work will probably be seen more - so take that into consideration. Rewards The top 3 stories as shown by votes through the upvote/downvote will earn a year's GDNet membership (or if already accessed to this rank or higher - a Steam equivalent prize). Notes These competitions are going to be a regular thing. You should look upon these as opportunities to showcase your ability as well learning to work within specific deadlines. Anyone can upvote or downvote posts. If you do have criticisms please make them constructive in your posts (grammar nazi is not constructive). If your posts become conversations please take them over to Private messages. Also in case anyone does wonder why I don't do this through the lounge rather than in the the specific creative forums (yes there will be also art/music ones in the next 2 months), it is because I am looking for those who show intentions of interest by being respective members of the forum as opposed to drift netting entrants.

HOUSTON - Neighbors who spotted suspicious activity in their neighborhood helped deputies catch two burglary suspects.
J.D. Lockhart and his wife, Vanessa, said they spotted a suspicious car in the 13000 block of Candlewood Glen in the Silverglenn North subdivision in northwest Harris County about 11 a.m. Tuesday. They wrote down the license plate.
"You had one guy driving and you had another guy sitting in the back seat, and no one else in the passenger side," Lockhart said.
Harris County sheriff's deputies said they think the pair was casing the neighborhood while a third man broke into a home of a family that was away on a vacation.
A neighbor reported the break-in.
Residents said that deputies arrived right as one of the suspects was walking down a sidewalk and talking on his cellphone. He was arrested. A second suspect was arrested a short time later, after the Lockharts gave deputies the license plate number of the suspicious vehicle.
"We have to have our eyes open, look around, make sure we are paying attention and communicate," Lockhart said. "Communicate with the police, too."
Residents said thieves have targeted several homes in the area over the past few weeks.
"We're trying to get a grip on it," resident Rodney Wallace said. "What happened today is we had a lot of neighbors participate, and that's what we need."
Investigators said a third person believed to be involved got away. A description of that person has not been released.
Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 713-222-TIPS.

SOUTHFIELD, Mich. - Gun sales are through the roof across the country, not just in Michigan.
In Metro Detroit, so is range time. People interested in firearms are out in force. From the range to the display case, gun stores across the area, and country, are jammed.
"It's been off the charts for the last month," said Bill Kucyk, owner of Action Impact gun range in Southfield.
The Southfield gun range is an accredited five-star shooting facility and dealer. The range has access to everything, even when other stores have limited supply. However, now even Action Impact is feeling the squeeze of the gun sales surge.
"I think the inventory in the country has been sold," said Kucyk.
Every day brings buyers into the store.
"I'm getting gun enthusiasts. I'm getting gun collectors. I get people who want their first purchase, novices, beginners. I am doing classes five days a week for the concealed pistol license. I am doing about 200 students a week," said.
What's left of Action Impact's less than $700 range of pistols is just the display, no other inventory. Inventory also is scarce in the $1,200 pistol range. Ammunition? Yeah, that's going quickly, too.
"Ammunition is in short supply, particularly .9 mm ammunition," said Kucyk.
Next week, Washington is supposed to come up with some sort of plan of action on proposed gun control.
Kucyk, who spent years as a police officer and SWAT commander, believes all the gun talk is only political theater.
"At the end of the day, nothing's gonna change. I don't think we're going to be any safer. In fact, I'll tell you this, from the hysteria that has been created in the last month, I firmly believe there is more firearms in your community now than there will be in the next three years," said.
The FBI reports they processed more gun requests or background checks in the month of December than they have in the history of the bureau.

The CRX repository stores its data in tar files. Data is not overwritten or deleted as it is changed. The changed data is added to the tar files and older data continues to exist in the tar files, unused. Doing this makes the repository much more efficient. But this means that even small changes, if there are enough of them, will cause the amount of data residing in the jar files to become quite large.
How can the amount of space taken up by the repository's tar files be quickly reduced?
CRX has functionality that works like memory garbage collection except for tar files. The tar files can be optimized with this functionality and reduced in size. When this happens the unused data stored in the tar files will be removed and the amount of data stored in the tar files can become much less. By default, this optimization occurs in the early morning hours. If the size of the repository tar files becomes too large the optimization can be run manually any time it is needed.
Running the CRX respository tar file optimization
After logging into the Experience Services console with an administrator account select the link, Repository Management, on the right. This will take you to the management screen for the CRX repository. Select the link, Tar Persistence Manager Optimization.
On this screen is a field, Delay after optimizing one transaction. Changing this to be a higher number will cause the optimization to take longer while using less of the processor on the server.
To optimize the tar files of the repository, press the button, Start Optimization. While this is running you will see two buttons, Refresh and Stop Optimization. To get updates of the progress of the optimization you will need to press the Refresh button. When completed, a message is displayed: Optimization successfully finished.
For more information see:
Documentation for CRX Persistence Managers

This award-winning animation is a poignant interpretation of a short story by Montreal author Mordecai Richler. It makes a strong statement about how many families respond to their old and infirm members. In washes of watercolour and ink, filmmaker Caroline Leaf illustrates reactions to a dying grandmother, capturing family feelings and distilling them into harsh reality.

Holy ****, the Bombers are horrible. Riders may get 35 pts on thier own. Bombers might as well get on the bus at 1/2 time.

I hate when you are awarded a single point for failure. Punters job is to get it deep and out.
I know they have great parties in Regina on Labour Day Classic weekend, so I hope all the Bomber fans had a great time, but I feel sorry for those who just came for the game. This is uuuuggggggyyyyyyyyyy.
And what a bonus, having a head coach who doesn't even know all the rules...
Wonder if they will start Brink in 2nd 1/2.
Another silly single for failure, but anyways, I did call 35 pts. just didn't know the Riders would score them all. Go scoreless 4th Q.
Guess I won't need to watch the replay of this one tonight lol
Well 42-0, I lost, and I'm out of here. This game is done a long time ago. Great to see all the fans posting today, this is becoming almost a pointless exercise. Going to miss both games tomorrow going fishing, wonder if anyone posts during tomorrows games. Hope so.

Just finished watching the game. That did not go well. Did notice that half of the Riders seem to be from the Bombers the last couple years. Still don't know why the Bombers let Jeffers-Harris go.
The Stamps/Esks game was pretty good. Glenn is about as good as you can get for a backup qb.
It's rematch week, same lineups as last week. There were three good games and an beat down.
Edmonton vs Calgary
Saskatchewan vs Winnipeg
Toronto vs Hamilton
Montreal vs BC
Looking forward to the Banjo Bowl, it can't be worse then last weeks game.
I was just going to say the Argos are putting this 1 away then what a dumb play. If Burris could get some one to catch the ball, could be a close game.
What a turn about, Cats back in the game.
Kackert looks pretty good, I guess they knew what they had when they let Boyd go. But where is Thousand Oaks where he was born. Never heard of it.

can someone please explain me whats the need of prototyping in javascript?
What I mean to say is, when you add a method/property to an object using "Function.prototype" syntax, why cannot you directly add that method inside that object when creating it?
Consider the following example:
Instead of doing this:
myobj = function(fname){
this.fname = fname;
myobj.prototype.age = function (age) {
this.age = age;
var x = new myobj('joe');
x.age = 32;
alert (x.age);
I can do this:
myobj = function(fname, age){
this.fname = fname;
this.age = age;
var x = new myobj('joe', 32);
alert (x.age);
So what do we need prototype for?
Any explanations will be appreciated.
I can't profess to understand this well, but I recently found this video really enlightening on the subject of prototypes:
It's the only explanation of prototypes that I've really been able to grasp.
There are a couple of important differences when you add a method to an object's prototype rather than directly to the object itself:
Edit: +1 to ralph.m's link too - that page is a great help to getting your head around how prototypes work in JS, I had a couple of lightbulb moments while watching the screencast.
Mind explaining this with an example?
No worries.
Here's an example that illustrates the first point:
var Person = function(name, age) {
this.name = name;
this.age = age;
Person.prototype.talk = function() {
console.log("Hi, I'm "+this.name);
var pete = new Person('Pete', 32);
pete.talk(); // Hi, I'm Pete
Person.prototype.sleep = function() {
console.log('Goodnight! zzzzZZZZ');
pete.sleep(); // Goodnight! zzzzZZZZ
You see that we can call pete.sleep() even though we only defined the method after pete had been created.
In regards to the second point, lets say that we'd done something like this:
var Person = function(name, age) {
this.name = name;
this.age = age;
this.talk = function() {
console.log("Hi, I'm "+this.name);
this.sleep = function() {
console.log('Goodnight! zzzzZZZZ');
Because we're creating the methods in the constructor function, each time we call new Person() a new object will be created with its own copy of these methods. If we were running an app that created a large number of Person objects, we'd be using up more memory with all that unnecessarily duplicated method code.
new Person()
Edit: If you want to visualise the prototype example at objectplayground.com, you have to make a few small changes to get sensible output from it:
function Person(name, age) {
this.name = name;
this.age = age;
Person.prototype.talk = function talk() {
console.log("Hi, I'm "+this.name);
this.pete = new Person('Pete', 32);
Person.prototype.sleep = function sleep() {
console.log('Goodnight! zzzzZZZZ');
Excellent explanation fretburner
2 more questions
1) Whats the difference between the following two codes?2) What benefit do I get when I use the prototype property?
function displayInfo(fname){
displayInfo.age = 25;
function displayInfo(fname){
this.fname = fname;
sam = new displayInfo('Sam');
displayInfo.prototype.age = null;
sam.age = 33;
Nothing really. Even though you initialise the property age on the prototype and set it to null, when you do sam.age = 33; you're actually creating an age property directly on the object sam. Visualise this code over at the objectplayground site and you'll see what I mean:
sam.age = 33;
function displayInfo(fname){
this.fname = fname;
this.sam = new displayInfo('Sam');
displayInfo.prototype.age = null;
this.sam.age = 33;
As I mentioned in my previous post methods set on the prototype are available to all objects that inherit from it, and the same goes for properties set on the prototype. Of course, if you change the value via one of your objects all the others will now access the changed value, which may or may not be useful depending on what you're trying to achieve.
Properties don't need to be assigned via the prototype as they are not executable functions, instead you should use getter and setter functions that attach to the prototype but are more descriptive as to what you're currently doing with the person.
Visit the following demo, press F12, jump over to the console and you will see that only functions are inherited via the prototype http://jsfiddle.net/MS4j6/.
If you define properties via prototype then you provide two different ways for the object to get its value - via the prototype or via the property directly attached to the object.
For example:
var obj1, obj2;
baseObject = function(x) {
if (typeof x !== undefined) this.prop = x;
baseObject.prototype.prop = 'default';
obj1 = new baseObject();
obj2 = new baseObject('unique');
alert(obj1.prop); // will display 'default'
alert(obj2.prop); // will display 'unique'
delete obj2.prop;
alert(obj2.prop); // will display 'default'
The property attached directly to obj2 in the above example overrides the one attached to the prototype but if you delete the property then the prototype property then once more becomes accessible via the property name and so even though the property has been deleted it still has a value.

Hi there,
I'm working on a site which needs to look good across the board up to and including IE7. Joy!
I've put up a test page here:http://www.mikes-lab.com/mikes-lab/personaltrainerleon.com/
I'm a Mac user, and have (just about) got everything looking good across the major Mac browsers (Safari, Chrome, FF & Opera). The only issue there is the textbox at the bottom of the page. (Looks good in Chrome, but I can't seem to get it the same across the others). It's not a major issue, but if you have any ideas I'd be grateful to hear them.
Anyways, when I was (reasonably) happy with the standards compliant browsers, I decided to take on IE7. After fixing a few bugs, there's one that remains, and I have no idea what to do about it. If you look on the home page, there is a
 tag with an id of "welcome". The "book-now"
 should line up with the bottom of the image. But its about 5px lower. There's no margin or padding on the image, so I'm not sure why the
 is not wrapping to the height of the image.
Also, I'm using the @font-face declaration to serve the fonts from the server. IE7 doesn't load the fonts, but just renders them in Times New Roman.
I don't have access to all IE builds, but I've been using Adobe's BrowserLab to check out the page in IE8 and 9, but the css file is, for some reason, not loading. Can anyone check this out for me, and let me know if its an issue with BrowserLab, or with my css file?
Many thanks in advance,Mike
Can I ask you...Why does it need to be pixel perfect? As far as I can tell this 5px lower does nothing to hinder the design or function. Also your doctype is all messed up. You should check that.
What you need to do is get a copy of Windows and test IE while you are developing your web sites. Using Adobe's BrowserLab just will not do. Microsoft provides several Virtual machine images that can be concerted to VMware or other vendors: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=11575
Hi logic_earth, thanks for your reply.
I have a crappy old Windows laptop, which has a copy of IE7 on it. That is what I am currently using to test this page.
And why does it have to be pixel perfect? Because it looks better that way. Most websites, magazine layout, poster design, in fact any graphic design is normally formatted to some sort of grid. Its a question of design. I'm not looking acceptable or passable, I want my page to look the way I have designed it.
I'm sure there will be a reasonable explanation for this bug, and a workaround somewhere out there. I think its worth my time finding it.
Then you should stop right now, stop trying to be a web designer. The web is not print, alright. You need to get away from the methodology of pixel perfect that is PRINT DESIGN. The web does not allow for pixel perfection and you need to really stop trying to control it in that way.
Your doctype is all wrong. It is suppose to be "<doctype html>" but you have "<doctype>"
Thanks for your reply.
I'm sorry to have bothered you.
I know...I sound harsh...But really the moment you learn the web is completely different to print design, that there is no pixel perfection. That much easier it will be for you to actually design sites. Unlike paper once it is printed it is completely fixed a user cannot change it, on the web this is not so. Different browsers rendering differently but also users can change various aspects on how a site may or may not render. Changing the font size is one classic example.
I understand what you are saying.
I still think it's worth my time investigating this issue. I mean, IE is notorious for its bugs and quirks. And it may well pop up again. I understand that different browsers render differently, I'm just looking for a better solution than what I have now.
The book-now div has position:absolute; bottom:0; the welcome section has position:realtive; It should line up regardless of font-size or font-family.
If it's not a bug (which it must be as far as I'm concerned, since there's no reason for the added space), then I'll either leave it as it is, or use a hack to sort out the issue.
The extra 10px at the bottom of the element in IE7 is a well known bug and is the margin of the last paragraph in that section which pushes beyond the floated image when it shouldn't.
You can add a class to the last p element to counter the bug.
Here's a demo showing it working

| Part of the series on
The doctrine of humanity, also called anthropology, is an area of Christian theology that studies various topics related to mankind based on the teaching of Scripture.
For example, a biblical anthropology maintains as a basis, that:
- Man was created in God's image (Genesis 1:26-27).
- Man is a fallen creature (Romans 5:12), and born in a corrupt state.
- Man has a material aspect (the body) and a non-material aspect, his spirit (Jas. 2:26).
- Though marred by the Fall, man retains remnants of God's image in his non-material nature (Gen. 9:6).
Some differentiate the soul from the spirit of man resulting in a trichotomous view of his nature (body, soul, and spirit). Others see the soul as essentially synonymous with the spirit resulting in a dichotomous view of man's nature (material and immaterial), which may be expressed as either "body and soul" or "body and spirit."
Created humanity
"So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them" (Gen 1:27). Human beings are crated in God's image in which they were made to coexist as man and woman in community. As created beings, humans are finite and dependent on God for all things.
- See main pages: Image of God, Nature of humanity, Gender roles
Body, soul, and spirit
Trichotomy is the view that humanity is composed of three distinct parts: body, soul, and spirit. Some adherents to this view believe the spirit a range of capacities within the soul. The primary text used by proponents of the trichotomous view of man is Genesis 1:26-27, where God said, "Let us make man in our image, after our likeness," thus appealing to the analogy of the Trinity (comparing the three natures of man with the three persons of God).
The biblical languages make a distinction between soul and spirit, using two totally different words, meaning two totally different things. The Hebrew word translated spirit, ne shamah ("wind"), corresponds to the Greek word for spirit, pneuma ("breeze"), while the Hebrew word translated soul, nephesh ("living (thinking) being") corresponds to the Greek word, psuche (also "living (thinking) being").
Other Scriptures which seem to make the distinction between spirit and soul include Luke 1:46-47, where Mary said, "My soul magnifies the Lord, and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior," and Matthew 26:38-41, where Jesus said "My soul is very sorrowful, even to death..." when exhorting the disciples to watch and pray with Him, and then upon returning to find them sleeping said, "The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak."
- "In contrast to trichotomy, the view accepted by most scholars is that man is dichotomous, or consists of two parts; a material aspect, and a non-material aspect. The non-material part is called by many different names; soul, spirit, mind, life force, or any of a dozen or more equivalent Scriptural words. These are not separate parts of a person, but are just different words for the different aspects of the non-material aspect of man." [1]
Relevant passages
- "Now may the God of peace himself sanctify you completely, and may your whole spirit and soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ." - 1 Thessalonians 5:23
- "For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart." - Hebrews 4:12
- "For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays but my mind is unfruitful." - 1 Corinthians 14:14
- "And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather fear him who can destroy both soul and body in hell." - Matthew 10:28
Views on the Origin of the Soul
"Some advocated the idea that the souls of men existed in a previous state, and that something that happened then accounts for their present condition. A few found in this an explanation of the fact that man is born as a sinner. This view finds no favor now." Berkhoff
"According to this View men derive their souls as well as their bodies from their parents. This is the common view in the Lutheran Church. Support for it is found in the fact that nothing is said about the creation of Eve's soul, and that descendants are said to be in the loins of their Fathers, Gen. 46:26; Heb. 7:9, 10. Furthermore, it seems to be favored by the fact that in the case of animals both body and soul are passed on from the old to the young, by the inheritance of family traits and peculiarities, and by the inheritance of sinful corruption, which is a matter of the soul more than of the body. However, it is burdened with serious difficulties. It either makes the parents creators, or assumes that the soul of man can be divided into various parts. Moreover, it endangers the sinlessness of Jesus." Berkhoff
"This holds that each soul is a direct creation of God, of which the time cannot be precisely determined. The soul is supposed to be created pure, but to become sinful even before birth by entering into that complex of sin by which humanity as a whole is burdened. This view is common in Reformed circles. It is favored by the fact that Scripture represents the body and the soul of man as having different origins, Eccl. 12:7; Isa. 42:5; Zech. 12:1; Heb. 12:9. Moreover, it is more in harmony with the spiritual nature of the soul, and safeguards the sinlessness of Jesus. It is not free from difficulties, however. It does not explain the inheritance of family traits, and may seem to make God the Creator of sinful souls." Berkhoff
Fallen humanity
After the Fall, sin entered the world and effected the human condition. Both sin and guilt were now inherited and resulted in death.
Total depravity (also called total inability or total corruption) is a biblical doctrine closely linked with the doctrine of original sin as formalized by Augustine and advocated in many Protestant confessions of faith and catechisms, especially in Calvinism. The doctrine understands the Bible to teach that, as a consequence of the the Fall of man, every person born into the world is morally corrupt, enslaved to sin and is, apart from the grace of God, utterly unable to choose to follow God or choose to turn to Christ in faith for salvation.
- See main pages: The Fall, Original sin, Death, Total depravity
New humanity
While the effects of the Fall left humanity in a sinful condition, freedom from the bondage of sin was accomplished on the cross and through Jesus' resurrection. Those who have been united with Christ are new creatures and await the complete restoration of their humanity at the final resurrection.

The distribution of cake can be tricky business. It takes some pretty serious math to take a look at a crowd and a cake and figure out the appropriate cutting grid to ensure each person gets an equal portion. No doubt there is someone somewhere who has lost a friend because they miscalculated. In fact, there should probably be a cheat sheet carried by mothers and grandmothers which has the math already figured, like a football coach and his two-point conversion card.
While the math of cake distribution may at times be complicated, the physics of it are quite simple. If Charlie eats a piece of cake, that piece is no longer available for his friend Tommy. It's a zero sum game, where the deliciousness experienced by one person is directly tied to the empty stomach experienced by the other.
I received a book this Christmas called "Metaphor." It is a cleverly-titled book about metaphors. In one of the early chapters, the authors discuss the trend of using battle language when referring to debates or arguments. For example, we hear phrases like, "he attacked her point of view," or "her criticism was right on target," and of course, "they won the debate." There is something wrong with our terminology here. I hope to one day see two people discuss an issue in such a way that one of the participants actually comes around to the other's way of thinking, not because there was a winner or a loser, but because truth was found where it had not been before.
There are, of course, places for competition, and winners and losers. Professional sporting events should end with someone winning. I'm looking at you, soccer. And you wonder why you aren't more popular here. Game shows need a winner. Elections need a winner. If they didn't, who would we blame for everything? (Just kidding there ... please hold the angry emails!)
The spirit of competition is healthy in a lot of ways, but if it is not contained and applied in appropriate areas it can distort and dismantle things it was never meant to touch. For example, I enjoy golfing. I do not, however, enjoy golfing with someone who can hit their tee shot farther than me. Apparently, I am a child. If I cannot simply find joy in doing something I like and also appreciate the accomplishments of others, than I need to be cured of something that is quite serious. If, as a parent, you have ever heard the news of a baby's first steps and sneered because your own child is not yet walking yet, then you need to be healed with me.
Not everything is like cake. The talents and achievements of one person do not necessarily come at the expense of another. The success of a neighbor does not belittle the achievements in your own home.
I believe we make a choice, and I have sometimes made the wrong one. We can ride a tide that lifts all boats and find joy in the success and achievements of others as if they were our own, or we can meticulously calculate who got to eat cake and what size their piece was.
In 2013 I am committed to riding the tide. Some may prefer to play the game of compete and compare. I say ... let them eat cake.

type krandrtray in a konsole
BT4 is fantastic!
But... I would like to know how can I change my display resolution, because I'm using 800 x 600 (default) and it's terrible!
hey, im having the same problem and when i type krandrtray in konsole it doesn't do anything.
edit: when i type "xrandr -s 1680x1050" it says, size is not available. Why is it saying this, that's my monitors native resolution.
also, im running BT4 off of a live cd does this have anything to do with the problem??
So your saying when you type krandrtray in a konsole you don't get a new icon by the flag in the bottom right hand corner of the screen ?
If you do... but didn't notice..
Click on it and it will bring up a list of display resolutions and options. Just click the one you want.
No it does appear and when i click on it it says "screen size" 800x600 or 640x480 below it.
Also when i click configure display, it says an index has not been created. (im trying to create one now?)
I have a 22' monitor with a native res. of 1680x1050
Of course, if you really wanted to have some fun, go to Wal-Mart late at night and ask the greeter if they could help you find trashbags, roll of carpet, rope, quicklime, clorox and a shovel. See if they give you any strange looks. --Streaker69
