This year's BIG Nerf Auotmatic Gun!!
This is the gun that everyone is going to see on the shelf and say... "Wow, now THAT'S A BIG GUN!". And, rightfully so. It's a monster!Read complete review
This is the gun that everyone is going to see on the shelf and say... "Wow, now THAT'S A BIG GUN!". And, rightfully so. It's a monster!Unlike the other guns in the lineup, this one is automatic and takes a whopping 6 batteries plus 2 for the scope. BONUS REVIEW NOTE : People will be buying this gun just for the scope. Watch out! It may be hard to get for reasons other than just the gun.While the automation is great, it can seem a bit lagged. And, there is something very satisfying about either the pump of the Praxis or the slide of the Vigilon.Either way. New Nerf. New Ammunition (XLR Discs that are like frisbees). Good Times.

okay I will start with the pros- it is a solidly built blaster, functions smoothly with jams being very rare, looks awesome, tough and futuristic, and the scope is the coolest (with it's 3d like interior running light effect).that nerf has ever produced. However its a heavy blaster, ranges are low for the vortex line, full auto has a slow rate of fire, you have to wait for the fly wheel to spin up to speed and the dart pusher to engage causing a bit a delay on the trigger pull ,even on a single disk launch, making hiting moving targets a challenge even with 20 rounds on board. It is fun cool and intimidating but for the price I would go with the revonix, or pyragon You'll have a much lighter less bulky blaster with more rounds on board, better distance, and rate of fire for twenty bucks less. However if you catch one of these on sale like I did for under $20 go for it!was it's worth it just for the 20 round clip and scope.

About Me Collector
I bought the product when it had a Red Hot Sale. I would not have considered purchasing this product at full price, but it is definitely worth it! The only complaint I really have about this product is that it takes a LOT of batteries. 6 C batteries and I think 2 or 3 AAA batteries. The C batteries are necessary to make the gun work but the AAAs are just to light up the aiming thing, which is not even great quality.

Bought this for my son as a reward. At first, the bullets wouldn't come out but after multiple attempts, they finally started. Not sure why??? Good thing is the bullets do not come out as hard/fast as I thought they would. Do not think the scope is necessary. We took it off the first day and haven't used it since
We love it!

Eerie Aurorae
- ‹ Previous program

[SFX: Saturn aurora]
Those who've seen the aurorae -- the shimmering curtains of color known as the northern and the southern lights -- describe them as beautiful -- and eerie. They dance and ripple across the sky, sometimes changing colors.
It turns out that the aurorae sound eerie, too. [bring up SFX] They generate radio waves that are recorded by spacecraft. Scientists convert the radio waves to sound. These sounds came from the planet Saturn, which also has aurorae. [more SFX]
The aurorae on all the planets are produced when particles from the Sun spiral toward the planet's magnetic poles. They strike atoms and molecules in the upper atmosphere, causing them to glow. On Earth, most of the glow is in the form of visible light. On Saturn and Jupiter, it's in the ultraviolet.
On all three planets, though, they produce radio waves. And recent observations of Earth's aurorae by a set of European spacecraft suggest that these waves could be used to study planets in other star systems. The radio waves travel out in tight beams; radio telescopes could record the beams as they come and go, revealing how fast the planet spins. So we may someday learn about alien worlds by listening for the eerie sounds of their own northern and southern lights. [bring music up]

1. There are many privileges of being the Governor. Among them is releasing the books by former Governors. It is a privilege to which I attach a lot of value, something which I prize.
2. Because the occasion demands it, I must repeat what I said at the Reserve Bank's Platinum Jubilee.
3. Those of you who have had some exposure to the history of science would know that Sir Isaac Newton was an intellectually arrogant man. When his friend and rival, Robert Hooke wrote to him, applauding him for his law of gravity, Newton, for all his arrogance, wrote back with uncharacteristic humility:
"If I have been able to see a little further, it is because I am standing on the shoulders of giants."
That is a statement I can relate to. As the Governor of the Reserve Bank in these exciting times, I owe an intellectual debt of gratitude to all the extraordinary men who led this great institution through several challenges, and made a mark in the economic history of India. Among the most distinguished of them is Dr. I.G. Patel. I am proud and privileged to be in the same lineage as him.
Special Occasion
4. I did not know Dr. Patel personally. He was already in the top echelons of the Government when I joined the civil service; when he was the Governor of the Reserve Bank I was a junior officer in the Government of Andhra Pradesh. Much to my loss, our paths never crossed. This association with late Dr. Patel, of releasing his book, posthumously - vicarious, as it may be - is therefore very special for me.
5. I want to thank Oxford University Press for giving me this privilege.
Ms. Alaknanda Patel
6. Those of you who have known Mrs. Alaknanda Patel will, of course, relive some memories, through interaction with her today. Over the last few years, I have developed a close friendship with her. I have always been impressed by her intelligence, charm, vivaciousness; and have been touched by how much she loves all of us in the Reserve Bank and the efforts she makes to maintain her bond with the Reserve Bank even after all these years.
Alaknanda, your presence here means a lot to all of us in the Reserve Bank.
The Book
7. This book "Of Economics, Policy and Development" is a collection of largely unpublished papers by Dr. Patel.
What is common across all of the articles/papers regardless of the topic is deep scholarship, sharp intellect and above all an abiding concern for public interest.
Ideas and Issues Resonate Even Today
8. What has struck me as I browsed through the book is that several of the ideas and issues that Dr. Patel addressed resonate even in today's context, both at home and around the world.
I will comment on some of the ideas that he raised.
I. Monetary Policy
9. In one of the articles, Dr. Patel reviews the evolution of monetary policy in the post-war years compared to the pre-war years. He writes:
[Quote] "The supreme test of monetary policy lies in its ability to control the supply of money in such a way that growth in prices is checked without retarding the growth in production."[Unquote]
10. The essence of that sentence is that checking growth in prices without retarding production; that is the quintessential growth versus inflation debate that is playing out even today.
11. A relevant question in this context is the following:
'To what extent is the Reserve Bank acting consistent with Dr. Patel's dictum of controlling prices without hurting production?'
12. By far the most strident criticism against the Reserve Bank has been that even after persistent and prolonged tightening of monetary policy - by raising interest rate 13 times - we have not been able to restrain inflation. On the other hand, we stifled growth.
13. So the question is has the Reserve Bank failed in following the dictum that Dr. Patel prescribed?
14. I don't believe so.
In fact I will argue that the Reserve Bank's action is fully consistent with Dr. Patel's dictum of trying to protect growth with price stability.
15. Let me explain.
Inflation is inimical to growth. There cannot be much disagreement on that.
Low and stable inflation is an essential pre-condition for securing medium-term growth. Only in a situation of price stability can consumers and investors make informed decisions.
The Reserve Bank's monetary stance has been aimed at restraining demand and at managing inflation expectations.
Admittedly, monetary tightening has resulted in some sacrifice of growth in the short-term. That is an inevitable price to pay for price stability. But the sacrifice in growth is only in the short-term. In the medium-term, there is no trade-off between growth and inflation.
Philips Curve
16. Another facet of this growth-inflation debate that has played out in the recent period has been the growth-inflation trade-off in the context of the Philips curve.
The argument is that we can raise growth by tolerating higher inflation. This is misguided.
Relationship between growth and inflation is non-linear.
There is a threshold level of inflation.
Below the threshold, may be, there is a trade-off between growth and inflation.
Above the threshold, there is no trade-off between growth and inflation, higher inflation actually leads to loss of growth. With WPI inflation at 7.25 per cent and CPI inflation in double digits, we are way above the threshold.
What is the threshold level of inflation? That maybe around 5 per cent. Inflation today is above the threshold.
17. Dr. Patel's dictum about maintaining growth with price stability is the quintessential objective of monetary policy.
II. Communication Challenges
18. The second issue I want to talk about is communication challenges. There is a paper by Dr. Patel and I quote a sentence from the paper:
"Apart from communicating its own slant on national and international trends, there are three special areas which need attention. The first is the glamorous but elusive area of what the Central Bank communicates and how it does so in relation to its specific responsibility for monetary and foreign exchange policy; the second is communication on issues in regard to its regulatory functions; and the last is communication with the government of the day, including Parliament."
19. I am deeply struck by this statement by Dr. Patel. Not so much by the content, not so much by the context, but by the fact that Dr. Patel chose to say it at all. Because in the time that Dr. Patel wrote this communication by central banks was an oxymoron.
20. As Dr. Patel himself admits:
"I belong to an age when central bank governors, like children, were supposed to be seen, not heard. Although they were allowed to smile in public, they had to emulate Mona Lisa and maintain an aura of mystery."
21. How is the Reserve Bank today going to be evaluated on the basis of Dr. Patel's exhortation to be more meaningfully communicative.
Alan Greenspan - the Doyen of Communication!
22. It would be blasphemous to speak about central bank communication without first paying tribute to the doyen of communication - Alan Greenspan. So let me get on with it.
23. I will not of course tell you the joke about his marriage proposal to his future wife. That's hackneyed.
24. Greenspan is notoriously famous for transforming central bank communication to an art form. In 1987 shortly after he took over as Chairman of the Federal Reserve, he said, "Since I've become a central banker I've learned to mumble with great incoherence. If I seem unduly clear to you, you must have misunderstood what I said."
25. After nearly 15 years on the job, in October 2001, Greenspan took a complete U turn saying that, "Openness is more than just useful in shaping better economic performance. Openness is an obligation of a central bank in a free and democratic society. Transparency of our activities is the means by which we make ourselves accountable to our fellow citizens to aid them in judging whether we are worthy of that task".
IG Patel - Prescient
26. By commenting on communication, much before central bank communication became an intellectually fashionable issue, Dr. Patel had been remarkably prescient.
27. Let me comment on contemporary perspectives on communication policy.
Why is Central Bank Communication Important?
28. Over the last two decades, central banks have moved towards clearer communication and greater transparency. This has been driven by several motivations.
29. First and foremost, central banks have realized that open and transparent communication enhances policy effectiveness by way of achieving expected outcomes. This shift in central bank theology from deliberate obscurity to greater transparency actually reflects a shift in the theory of monetary policy.
Robert Lucas
30. Up until the early 1990s, monetary policy was strongly influenced by Nobel Laureate Robert Lucas' argument that monetary policy affected real variables, like growth, only if the policy changes were unanticipated. This encouraged obscurity over openness and clarity. However, lost in the debate after Lucas' statement was the message that monetary policy always affected nominal variables like inflation, even if fully anticipated.
Two Nobel Laureates
31. In the 1980s, two economists, also Nobel winners, Finn Kydland and Ed Prescott, argued that fully transparent rules rather than discretionary policy were more efficient and credible. This was the beginning of the push towards rules over discretion and greater central bank transparency.
Change in US Fed
32. The most eloquent illustration of this shift from obscurity towards transparency is the change in the communication strategy of the US Fed. It is hard to imagine from today's perspective, but prior to 1994, the US Fed did not disclose the Fed Funds Rate; the market was supposed to infer the rate from the timing, sequencing and magnitude of the FED's open market operations.
33. In sharp contrast, today the Fed not only announces the rate but also gives a clear indication of future policy trajectory.
Communication as Policy - Extended Period
34. Sometimes, communication, instead of being a vehicle for policy, becomes the policy itself. Drawing yet again from the US experience during the crisis, the Fed realized that its repeated announcement of keeping rates low 'for an extended period' led markets to reach a certain inference on what 'extended period' could mean. In this context, some policy analysts argued that a step that the Fed should modify the language of the statement to communicate to investors that it anticipates keeping the target Federal Funds rate low for a longer period than what the markets were factoring it to be. In fact, the Fed did just that - by saying explicitly that the low interest rate regime will last into 2014, much more specific that what the market wanted.
35. Yet another factor that has motivated central banks into placing larger emphasis on communication is their hard earned autonomy in the years before the crisis. Central banks have increasingly embraced more open communication to counter the criticism that an autonomous central bank comprising unelected decision makers was inconsistent with a democratic structure.
Communication in Reserve Bank
36. In the Reserve Bank, we have tried to improve communication not only on monetary policy but across the entire spectrum of our mandate. We have make efforts to demystify the Reserve Bank.
37. We continue to make explicit efforts to improve the communication of the Reserve Bank.
Streamlined the policy documents
Forward guidance - manage the risk that market does not ignore the conditionality and interpret the guidance on an irrevocable commitment.
Post-policy press conferences and interviews
Teleconference with analysts
Dissemination through our regional offices
On all areas, even extending beyond monetary policy, we put out Discussion papers - New Bank licences - Most extensive communication exercise.
Dilemmas in Communication
38. It is not as if more communication is better communication. Even as central banks are becoming more communicative, they are struggling with dilemmas:
What do we tell?
How do we tell?
How much do we tell?
39. Dictum to central banks used to be what mothers across cultures and across time have always told their children -
"If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all."
40. But the drive for transparency has changed that. Now the dictum is: "hold back information only if it is absolutely necessary to hold it back."
41. It is a struggle that we fight every day.
42. For example , the Financial Stability Reports –
43. That is a challenge that we in the Reserve Bank contend with, not about what to disclose but about how much to disclose and in what form to say it.
III. Responsibility of the Governor to Speak Up
44. I will now talk about the responsibility of the Governor. I quote from Dr. Patel:
"But the point is, when such vital questions arise, the Governor cannot just be inactive. He is a public servant with loyalty to the country and the Constitution - not just to a government in transit. And yet, he cannot behave as if every issue is of great import. He has to choose his ground and be discreet above all. Without offending the government he can start a debate and steer the argument in a certain direction. His ultimate defense is democracy and the tradition of free debate."
45. In short what Dr. Patel said was, don't nitpick. Pick your battles. Once you have picked your battles, fight those battles valiantly.
46. I want to pay a tribute to all my predecessor Governors who have followed this dictum. Several important reform measures in the country and policy initiatives owe their origin through the debates generated by the Governors. Of course, they are articulating the institutional wisdom of the Reserve Bank.
47. Over the last four years we have tried to raise a number of issues in the public domain because we believed that they needed to be debated:
role and responsibility of the Reserve Bank for financial stability.
the importance of protecting the independence of the central bank and indeed of all regulators.
the importance of being earnest about fiscal responsibility.
setting exemplary standards for corporate governance.
48. Government and the Reserve Bank are not adversaries. They share common goals. I think some disagreement is natural. There are disagreements with the Government, there are disagreements between the Government and regulators and public policy institutions. We know that wisdom arises out of disagreement and debate. What we need is a wise mechanism for distilling wisdom out of this disagreement.
49. Dr. Patel rightly says that the ultimate defence for the Governor and of course the Reserve Bank is democracy and tradition of free debate.
50. Central banks render accountability – particularly important because central bank officials are unelected and therefore have no electoral mandate. We take decisions that affect the entire country. So we must be sensitive to render accountability for our actions and the results of those actions.
IV. Advising the Advisers
51. The final point I want to talk on is advising the advisers. There is a short piece in the book, it is actually a book review that Dr. Patel wrote about Government advisers. That struck a chord with me.
52. It is about role and responsibility of government economists and their influence on public policy. Particularly important because Dr. Patel was among the first of economic advisers in the Government.
53. Dictum to economists in government has always been: "focus on objective analysis and give competent, unbiased and professional advice. Do not worry about political feasibility."
54. What struck me while reading this is that this is precisely the value system taught to civil servants:
55. With over 35 years experience as a civil servant, I am beginning to be sceptical about this paradigm. Is it not too strait jacketed?
56. Should the civil servant limit himself to giving objective advice or should he also be concerned about its feasibility?
57. If the civil servant suggests options that are totally infeasible, they are not adding value. They are only making life more difficult for the political executive.
58. New theory - you give honest, dispassionate advice. But in doing so, be sensitive to the democratic feasibility of the solution you suggest.
59. I am not saying that civil servants should be politicised or be less than honest. Only saying that they should suggest practical, workable, democratically feasible solutions.
60. Question in the context of Dr. Patel's piece is
Is the code of conduct for government economists any different from that for bureaucrats?
In other words, should government economists also tailor their advice based on feasibility, or leave that to be determined by the bureaucracy and the political executives?
61. I have commented on a few issues raised by Dr. Patel
the objective of monetary policy
communication challenges of central banks
responsibility of the Governor to generate public debate on vital public policy issuest
62. These articles have been written over a long period -
World has changed
World views have changed
India has changed
The Reserve Bank has changed
Economics has changed
Value System
63. What has not changed in all this flux is the value system that must guide public servants.
64. It is that value system that Dr. I.G. Patel embodied in full.
65. The Reserve Bank is proud of the legacy left behind by Dr. Patel and is delighted to renew its association with him through this book launch.
66. Congratulations to the editors
Dr. Deena Khatkhate Dr. Y.V. Reddy
Dr. Deena Khatkhate
Dr. Y.V. Reddy
67. Thanks once again to Mrs. Patel and Oxford University Press for this opportunity.

First Giveaway of '09, and It's Classy!
The Vegas-based Classy Kid company has burst onto the kid product scene with a focus on germ defense and attempts to make "non-toxic" as green as can be.
They've scored in the Inside Out book with the Keep Me Coloring Placemats, the first set of disposable placemats for kids that are actually biodegradable. Packed in groups of 10 or 20 in convenient zip-packs, the Keep Me Coloring Placemats take the restaurant kid mats another step - the stick-em backing makes them mats that truly stay in place. So do the accompanying "CrayAngles," triangular crayons that come in every Classy Kid placemat pack and won't send you scrounging around on a grubby restaurant floor because they won't roll off the table.
For little artists who want to hang around the house, the Classy Kid Full Sleeve Art Smocks will keep their clothes paint free (which is almost more important than keeping THEM clean). Packed in bags of two - one of them, and one for a friend - the smocks can be thrown directly in the wash, making this a green kind of clean. The fabric itself is soft enough and light enough for little arms to keep moving around, but the full sleeve art smock make-up resists the paint, so it doesn't soak through to skin (or sweater). Sized for kids, the smocks have grow-with-me velcro closures, so they'll last through their scribble phase on into stick figures.
Want to win a pack of the Keep Me Coloring Placemats or a set of Full Sleeve Art Smocks? Check out the Classy Kid's full line of products at their site (and check out Amazon or Target to buy online or their zip-code finder for a store near you). Come back, tell us what you think is the best in the bunch for your family. Get extra entries by grabbing my badge and/or blogging about this contest and all (remember to leave the link in comments as well).
Open to U.S. and Canadian residents, the contest will close on January12, so remember to check back or subscribe at left to be notified right away. NEW SUBSCRIBERS for the month of January will all be entered to win a gift certificate to one of my favorite pajama shops - details coming later this week - so don't forget to subscribe at left.

The reviews I put up on this site are NOT paid for by any company. They come from my little ol' head. Some of the products I found myself - on the 'net, at the store, or from other moms. Some were sent my way by publicists. Usually they didn't fit the mold of another project I was working on, but I thought they were so cool I couldn't help sharing!
As for what happens to the products I didn't care for - you'll never know! Because I won't write about them on here. So if you see it, I liked it. 'Nuff said!

Abigail and Jennifer confront JJ with their concerns about his behavior.
Abigail and Jennifer confront JJ with their concerns about his behavior. He tells his mother and sister he is doing fine in school and is definitely not using or selling drugs. Later, JJ enlists Rory and Bev's help with a plan he has for Theresa. After Maggie forces Theresa to participate in an impromptu AA meeting, JJ arrives at Theresa's and gives her the pot. He gets her to admit she was the one who offered him G the night of her overdose, then triumphantly reveals he's recorded their conversation. At the hospital, Adrienne sets Jennifer up with Liam, an old friend of Justin's. Liam asks Jennifer out on a date just as Maggie arrives and expresses her disappointment. Sami covers with Will then calls Gabi and Kate to warn them Sonny knows the truth and is on his way to talk to Justin. The women race to the club and interrupt Sonny, who's on the verge of telling Justin everything. They take Sonny home and beg him to keep quiet. Meanwhile, Will and EJ bond as fathers.
Nicole convinces Eric she has moved on with Daniel - and that they are keeping their relationship a secret.
Nicole convinces Eric she has moved on with Daniel – and that they are keeping their relationship a secret. But before she can get Daniel on the same page, the doctor kicks her out of Eric's room to discuss medical matters. Eric starts to question Daniel but Nicole rushes back in to cover. In private, Nicole shares her plan with Daniel, who refuses to lie. Rafe calls Gabi on her strange behavior. She's grateful when Hope and Ciara interrupt, and she makes a quick exit. Later, Gabi runs into Sonny – and realizes he knows the truth! While visiting Will, Sami learns from Allie that Ciara may have her missing earring. But before she can run out, Will insists they need to talk. She's stunned when he reveals Sonny was listening in on her conversation with Kate and Gabi – though Will thinks it was all about his surprise birthday party. After getting shut out by Sami, EJ has a nice chat with Abigail about her father.
Sonny is torn whether or not to tell Will and Adrienne what he overheard.
Sonny is torn whether or not to tell Will and Adrienne what he overheard. Sonny ends up letting Will believe the reason he is upset stems from Sami catching him eavesdropping. Later, Sonny leaves a message for his dad saying he needs to talk, while Will sends his mom a similar text. Nicole tries to tell Daniel her plan but Victor interrupts. While Victor seeks advice from Daniel about Maggie, Nicole goes to check on Eric. At the hospital, Eric is told by Father Matt that if he feels like the media pressure from his scandal is too much, the church is willing to let him resign quietly. But Eric is committed to being a priest. As Father Matt leaves, he runs into Nicole, and he expresses his concern about her helping Eric clear his name. Nicole then goes into Eric's room and when the topic turns to her feelings for him, she insists she's moved on – with Daniel! Jennifer is stunned when Brady reveals he caught JJ in the drug dealing area of the park. Brady gets a surprise of his own when Jennifer admits Kristen thought at one point she was pregnant with Eric's baby. This, coupled with a visit from Daniel, propels Brady to get high once again. Abigail confronts JJ about why he was hanging out with Rory and Bev. JJ covers and must do so again when Jennifer questions him about what Brady saw. He later vows to stop Theresa's reign of terror. Meanwhile, Theresa is touched when Caroline drops by to offer her support. She later has a scratchy encounter with Abigail.
A stunned Sonny continues to hide in the closet as he hears Gabi, Kate and Sami talk about their secret.
A stunned Sonny continues to hide in the closet as he hears Gabi, Kate and Sami talk about their secret. The women freak out when Roman arrives and they quickly get rid of him. Sonny is almost discovered a few times, but ultimately manages to escape. He runs straight to Will to relay what he learned but stops when he sees Adrienne is there, too. Meanwhile, Sami and Kate finally convince Gabi to keep quiet. Earlier, Will and Adrienne bond while waiting for Sonny to respond to Will's texts. Nicole continues to sit with Eric as he is injected with the drug to help determine what poisoned him. In a delirious and vulnerable state, he asks Nicole if she can forgive him. In a big moment, she does. Meanwhile, Marlena is surprised to learn from Daniel about the test her son is undergoing. She is not pleased to find Nicole by her son's side and points out to Nicole how detrimental it could be if people realized Eric was being assisted by a woman who had feelings for him. Nicole defends herself to Marlena but later realizes she has a point. She goes to Daniel and tells him she needs a favor – one that he won't like. Brady and JJ have a tense and awkward encounter. Theresa confides to a delighted Anne that she has not changed her ways and still intends to destroy Jennifer. Theresa later subtly tries to get closer to Daniel but doesn't get very far.
Sami and Kate arrive at the apartment to speak with Gabi, only to learn Sonny hasn't yet left for the day.
Sami and Kate arrive at the apartment to speak with Gabi, only to learn Sonny hasn't yet left for the day. As they check on Arianna, Sonny pretends to leave but instead hides in a closet so he can report back to Will about his supposed surprise party. But as he texts updates to Will, Sonny is the one who gets the surprise when he overhears Gabi, Kate and Sami talking about their shocking secret! At the same time, Will kills time at Club TBD, where he realizes T has a crush on Gabi. Later, Adrienne joins him and he confides what he and Sonny are up to. They share a few laughs, then are curious when Sonny stops messaging… Nicole does a preliminary interview with Brady, unaware he's high on coke. She begins to suspect something is off as he recounts Kristen's deception in an upbeat, detached manner. Once Nicole leaves, Brady decides to take another hit but he drops his drugs, spilling it everywhere. He later heads over to the park to meet up with his dealer – and is stunned when he runs into someone he knows. Eric tells Daniel that after speaking with Nicole, he's ready to start the tests to hopefully prove Kristen drugged him. Daniel warns the process will be painful. At the hospital, Nicole visits Eric, who is in so much pain, he doesn't realize she's there. She can't help but tenderly minister to him, and it's clear how much she still loves him. Meanwhile, Daniel realizes they need to find the expert who provided Kristen with the drug. At the same time, Dr. Chyka assures (off-camera) Kristen that he is far from Salem, where no one will find him. Theresa orders JJ to get her some pot. JJ makes amends with Rory and Bev, and Rory directs JJ to a dealer in the park. After meeting with Maggie, Abigail is concerned when she spies JJ with his old friends.
Theresa reveals she has a video of JJ doing drugs - making it clear he's going to help keep her secret about actually remembering everything from the night she overdosed.
Theresa reveals she has a video of JJ doing drugs – making it clear he's going to help keep her secret about actually remembering everything from the night she overdosed. She also wants his help with a few other things as well. However, her top goal is to continue making Jennifer suffer by letting her believe she and Daniel were involved. JJ is outraged, refusing to help no matter the consequences. He returns home, where Jennifer and Abigail are getting ready for the holidays… but before he can say anything, he gets a cruel reminder from Theresa about what will happen if he doesn't cooperate – and he keeps his mouth shut. Frustration boils over between EJ and Sami as he abruptly pulls her into a kiss. But she pushes him away and they finally have it out. EJ is beyond frustrated at how she's kicked him out of their bed: if she doesn't love him any longer, she should just move out. Sami blurts she does love him, that's the problem. She's in love with a man she cannot trust and that's confusing for her. She feels betrayed but isn't ready to move out. EJ confesses he wants her to stay and believes they can work this out. But Sami's less sure and they part, nothing truly resolved. Gabi nearly blurts the truth to Will but covers when she realizes he knows less than she originally thought. Later, Will connects with Sonny and says he saw the three women conspiring and thinks he knows what it was all about: they're planning a surprise party for him. Later, Sonny overhears a call between Gabi and Kate. Kate's taken aback when Rafe tells her he'll be leaving the hospital soon and she can go on with her life now, putting aside the guilt she feels about what happened to him. Rafe believes he's doing Kate a favor, not realizing how this hurts her. Kate then makes a beeline for Jordan, convinced that she has engineered all this rather expertly. But she makes clear to Jordan that she won't allow her to hurt Rafe.
JJ learns from Theresa that her memory is intact from the night she overdosed.
JJ learns from Theresa that her memory is intact from the night she overdosed. JJ wants her to come clean but Theresa's got a whole different agenda in mind – she intends to let Jennifer continue to believe she and Daniel were having a booty call the night she overdosed. JJ objects, insisting he's going to tell his mother the truth. However, Theresa stops him cold with something she has on her phone. Daniel's surprised when Jennifer encounters him in the square and wants to talk about JJ. At first, he worries she's put it all together but Jennifer says she has come to see that JJ regrets his role in how the two of them broke up. For a beat it seems like she is seeking reconciliation… but she soon makes it clear she can never forgive him for bedding Theresa. Will has discovered Gabi, Kate and Sami in deep conversation and wants to know what's going on. They eventually manage to throw off his suspicions. EJ gives Abigail a box from Chad and inside is the angel's wing she gave Chad while he was recuperating – a gift originally from her father. EJ surprises Abigail by revealing he read Jack's book. When Sami returns home, EJ is determined to find out why she is being so evasive with him. An argument ensues, which takes an abrupt turn when EJ grabs her and pulls her into a kiss. Theo gives Ciara the earring he found near the river… Rafe and Jordan return to the hospital, where they encounter Kate. Rafe tells Kate he's being released from the hospital, and she's elated until he adds: now she won't have to spend so much time around him, feeling guilty over what happened.
Jennifer quizzes JJ on why he keeps seeking out Daniel.

Product 352/1375
Book Summary
What is a maiden to do when the dragon shifter she loves won't claim her?
Rhoslyn volunteers to be the village's virgin sacrifice. She is bound and stripped, presented as an offering to appease their dragon protector, a dragon she has intimate knowledge of, a dragon who refuses to meet with her outside their mate link.
Lame from a past battle wound, Blau knows Rhoslyn deserves a more worthy knight than himself, but with one look at his mate's naked body, all of his noble plans fly out the turret. He doesn't deserve to claim Rhoslyn, but he can't let her go.
"Rhoslyn and Blau's story is one of those sweet stories that you can't help but love. Cynthia Sax gives readers a great blend of romance and paranormal... It is definitely a book that I would read more than once, as well as suggest to someone else."
"Dragon Lord's Captive is hot. Be ready to fan yourself while reading... sizzles from the beginning to the end as does the reader. Rhoslyn is one determined and inventive lady. She knows what she wants and goes after it with both hands."
"Rhoslyn was a determined young woman who would do what was needed to bag her mate. I loved that she did not wait for life to 'happen', but took charge to accomplish her goals. A short hot read... well-written."
"Ms. Sax shows the lengths a woman will go to in order to win the man she wants."
Behold the sacrificial virgin.
Rhoslyn stood on the wooden platform, her hands bound, facing the gleeful crowd. Previous virgins had screamed with fright and fought their destiny. She waited calmly, clad in a silk shift so sheer, every male present had a clear view of her nipples and the short brown curls covering her mons. The farmers, merchants, even men old enough to be her grandfather, looked their fill, their eyes wide, their skin flushed with lust, their cocks hard in their breeches. The lecherous attention would have horrified a modest maiden.
Rhoslyn was not a modest maiden... or a virgin.
Worried her ruse would be uncovered, Rhoslyn breathed a sigh of relief as the two large men tugged on her ropes, spreading her arms wide and lifting her until her bare feet dangled above the platform. As the ropes were tied, other men grabbed her ankles and placed her soles on notches in the intricately carved poles. One greasy palm lingered, sliding up her right leg underneath her shift.
Esel's palm. Her top lip curled with disgust. The slimy merchant grabbed her at every opportunity, murmuring promises of freedom if she tolerated his touch.
He didn't know she had no wish to be freed. Rhoslyn gazed toward the horizon, her body humming with anticipation, her passions primed by other men's stolen caresses.
"Bare the maiden," a big-bellied vassal ordered, his fleshy frame clad in rich green velvet and decorated with gold. Wunde was a prosperous land, guarded fervently by a strong dragon lord, and the leader of the villagers wore his personal wealth upon his stoutly person.
The men eagerly sliced their blades through Rhoslyn's flimsy shift. The fabric slid over breasts full and heavy with arousal, and grazed her sensitive nipples to hang around her hips. Hands brushed her curves as the daggers descended once more to shred the shift into strips, exposing her nakedness to the male spectators.
Rhoslyn tilted her chin upward, confronting her audience proudly. The men didn't meet her gaze. They stared lower, unabashedly peering between her spread thighs and leering at her bare breasts. A clergyman licked his lips. A baker rubbed himself through his breeches, a cloud of flour rising from the coarse cloth.
The vassal, a bearded man, cleared his throat, silencing the rowdy crowd. "We will confirm her purity."
Sweet Mercy, not again. Rhoslyn stiffened. "My purity has been confirmed."
The vassal's eyes narrowed. "We will not risk raising the ire of the dragon." He dipped his ringed hands in a bowl of water. "It will take but a moment."
It will not. Rhoslyn bit her lip, stifling her protest. The first confirmation required the participation of every male in the village. By the excited murmurings of the crowd, this confirmation would be as thorough.
Even if she passed the test once more, she wouldn't last through the sensuous torture with her self-respect fully intact. For two days, her body had been fondled and caressed, and she hadn't been granted one moment alone to bring herself to a much-needed private release. Already her pussy throbbed with wanting.
For another man's touch. Rhoslyn flushed with shame. I must be loyal to my dragon lord. She solidified her resolve. I cannot enjoy this.
As the vassal parted her pussy lips with his thick finger, Rhoslyn clenched down, narrowing her non-virginal passage. Please let him be fooled once more.
He entered her slowly, pressing his fingertip against her inner walls, and moisture flowed over his fat finger, Rhoslyn's body betraying her heart and her mind. The vassal, father of three grown boys also standing on the green awaiting their turn, grunted with excitement, his belly rubbing against her thigh.
He buried his finger up to the joint and worked the thickness in and out of her, mimicking the sexual act. He hadn't Blau's rhythm, nor his strength, and Rhoslyn bit the inside of her cheek to keep from pleading for more fingers and harder thrusts.
The vassal withdrew his finger with an embarrassingly loud pop. "She is pure," he declared and wiped her juices on his breeches, the wet spot proof of her shame.
"I will also confirm." The elderly priest, with hair as white as a fresh winter snow, splashed his hands in the water. His finger, long and thin and wrinkled, shook as he skimmed over her clit, along her pussy lips, before finding her entrance. Rhoslyn swallowed a moan, aroused by his bungling.
I am a harlot. As the ancient man of God pillaged her pussy, his wizened thumb pressing against her clit, Rhoslyn struggled to control her responses by studying their audience. Farmers rubbed themselves with zeal. The shoemaker, his breeches around his ankles, stroked his big cock enthusiastically.
Blau's cock, the only one she'd ever had inside her, was bigger. Rhoslyn closed her eyes, remembering the last time he'd taken her through their mate link, wielding drakon magic to cross the vast distance between them. Her dragon lord had come to her in silence and covered her face, her neck, and her breasts with hard, possessive kisses. She'd opened to him, and he'd mounted her swiftly, surely, completely claiming her body as his. They'd rutted like animals, with a ferocity, a burning passion so intense she had been engulfed in his flame.
"She is pure." The priest dispelled her reverie and verified Rhoslyn's lie, Blau having long ago taken her virginity.
"I will confirm next." Esel shoved another merchant aside. Saliva pooled in the corner of his mouth, his lips disgustingly moist.
Anyone but him. Bile rose in Rhoslyn's throat. If I respond to his touch, I truly am wanton.
He washed his hands in the bowl, and the dirt turned the water brown. She'd seen those grubby palms strike a child -- the girl sent sprawling to the cobblestones. She'd vowed then and there that when she was Blau's lady wife, she'd ensure Esel never touched another child.
The merchant leaned toward her, his putrid breath wafting on her cheek, and Rhoslyn reared back, trying to escape him. She couldn't as she was tied securely to the poles, and his ill-kept fingernail raked along her thigh, drawing blood.
"To hunger the dragon." Esel smirked. He shoved his finger into her pussy.
A dragon's roar concealed her cry. The villagers scattered, fleeing to safety, yelling to others to save themselves. Esel continued to ram his finger into her farther and farther, not moving from his spot on the platform. Soon, they were alone -- Rhoslyn and her abuser.
"The dragon is a jealous beast." Rhoslyn grimaced, fighting her body's reaction to his cruelty. "He will smell you on me."
The merchant's face paled. "He will smell your blood." He withdrew his finger and scratched her skin once again, the sting dampening her arousal. "Have you seen a dragon's cock, proud Rhoslyn?" Esel circled her. "It is the size of these poles." He slapped the wood. "When he drives into you, that cunt you have been guarding so adamantly will be split in two." He laughed.
"Better his cock than yours," Rhoslyn taunted.
"You will get both, harlot." Esel whacked her ass cheek with his closed fist. The impact swayed her body, and she moaned with pain.
The dragon shrieked. He beat his wings faster and faster, sunlight reflecting off his blue scales.
My mate comes for me. Finally.
For years, he'd visited her through their mate link, a nocturnal connection blurring the division between dream and reality. He'd wooed her, seduced her, fucked her with all the strength in his human form, leaving her covered with love bites and filled with his cum. Rhoslyn had waited for him to search her out during waking hours, to make her his mate in truth, yet he hadn't, plundering virgins from his village instead.
Today, I am that virgin. Rhoslyn raised her chin. And I will claim him.

Harry Potter strips
Jano Gibson
January 31, 2007 - 9:57AM
Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe has got some parents steaming over his racy new stage play role.
One of the publicity photos for the play shows a topless and buffed Radcliffe being hugged by a naked woman. Another shows him leaning against bales of hay as he stares up at the topless woman. A third has him posing in front of a white horse.
The pictures have been released ahead of the opening of Equus, a controversial Peter Shaffer play showing at London's Gielgud Theatre from next month.
Radcliffe,17, plays a troubled stablehand who one night blinds six horses with a hoofpick.
He features in numerous nude scenes with co-star Joanna Christie, the woman in the publicity shots.
The UK's Daily Mail reports that Harry Potter fan sites have received emails from concerned parents.
"We as parents feel Daniel should not appear nude. Our nine-year-old son looks up to him as a role model. We are very disappointed and will avoid the future movies he makes," one parent wrote.
Another said: "I am curious as to how and why his parents said this was okay."
Some of his younger fans, however, are impressed with Radcliffe's tough new look.
"I am completely stunned by these pix," wrote GinnyPotter on fan site danradcliffe.co.uk.
"He is no longer the shy boy in the prefects' bathroom anymore. His body is .... I can't even say or I will no doubt be banned but he has grown a lot and I am very proud of Daniel."
Another wrote: "When I saw it I couldn't breathe for a moment. I was shocked. But [the] pictures are very cool and very good. I like it ... They're awesome!"
The publicity shots were taken between filming of the fifth and sixth Harry Potter movies.
The play's producer, David Pugh, told the Daily Mail that Radcliffe had been rehearsing the nude scenes with Christie for more than a week and had overcome his initial shyness.
The young actor's spokeswoman, Vanessa Davies, said: "Daniel does not want to step away from Harry Potter but he does want to show he is a rounded actor capable of very different and diverse roles."
"He has tremendous support from Harry Potter fans," she said.
frankly, his body is but besides that, i feel really sorry for any kid that thinks "oh, it's Harry Potter, i want to watch that."
i'm really surprised, and seriously, i don't think i can ever look at Harry Potter the same way again

An engine on a Jet Airways 737 (similar aircraft pictured) which had just landed at Mumbai Monday caught fire, forcing the evacuation of all 158 passengers from the jet. The Times of India reports that flames were doused within minutes after the airplane came to a stop. While no one was injured, the Directorate General of Civil Aviation categorized it as a serious incident.
Preliminary reports suggested that fuel leakage could have caused the fire. "Usually, leakage in one of the fuel pipes triggers a fire in the engine. The situation can become risky if the aircraft is mid-air," an airport source said. The flight from Riyadh landed at 0545 local time. According to airport officials, the Boeing 737-800 turned off the main runway and was taxiing on parallel taxiway N. The plane was moving towards its gate when an airport official spotted smoke emanating from the left engine of the aircraft. On spotting the fire, the official informed ATC and ATC immediately relayed it to the pilot. Confirming the incident, a Jet Airways spokesperson said, "While taxiing, the flight crew was alerted by the ATC of the slight presence of smoke in one of the engines. The cockpit crew then proceeded to bring the aircraft to the assigned bay safely. In keeping with standard operating procedure, one engine was shut down and the guests were safely deplaned."
Experts said the situation did not go out of hand as an alert official spotted the fire on time. Also, the situation was manageable as the aircraft was on the ground. "All aircraft have an in-built fire alert system. The cockpit has a fire warning light and an alarm, which shows which engine has caught fire. The pilot can immediately pull the plug and stop fuel supply to the engine," a senior commander said. "The fire was spotted even before the alert could go off," he added.

Press Release 21 June 2007
Contact: Theresa Hedberg, t: +44 20 7734 5996
World Energy Council urges for global policies and
investments to tackle climate change.
The World Energy Council (WEC) has undertaken a Study of Energy and Climate Change, drawing on the collective experience and resources of energy professionals worldwide. It has looked in detail at the impact of existing climate change measures, and how effective they have been in promoting sustainable development, using the criteria of the "3A's" – accessibility (to affordable energy); acceptability (of the energy sources used, particularly in environmental terms); and availability (how secure and reliable are those sources?).
The study was presented today to a round table of leading media energy experts organised by the World Energy Council in London, attended among others by Yvo de Boer, Executive Secretary of the United Nations Climate Change Convention (UNFCCC).
Gerald Doucet, the Secretary General of the World Energy Council said:
"The ultimate objective is to develop a global regime that fosters new technologies and technology transfer to developing world. It needs to encourage a coherent, comprehensive and sustainable approach, focused on long-term steady reductions in the carbon intensity of the energy system, while ensuring that those systems can still perform the vital task of powering human development worldwide.
Significant investments are required to meet future demand for cleaner energy, which will inevitably lead to higher energy prices throughout the world. But higher prices will serve as a powerful motivating force for greater environmental efficiency."
Yvo de Boer said:
"The energy choices we make over the next five to ten years will define our emissions future for decades to come. This year's United Nations Climate Change Conference in Indonesia must launch an agenda for negotiations on a post-2012 regime, with a view to completing the negotiations by 2009. Only then can we send markets the clear policy signals they need to bring global emissions down."
The World Energy Council (WEC) is the foremost multi-energy organisation in the world today. WEC has Member Committees in over 90 countries, including most of the largest energy producing and energy consuming countries. Established in 1923; the organisation covers all types of energy, including coal, oil, natural gas, nuclear, hydro, and renewable, and is UN-accredited, non-governmental, non-commercial and non-aligned. WEC is a UK-registered charity headquartered in London. WEC Services Limited was established in 2001 as the incorporated trading subsidiary of WEC.
WEC's Mission is "To promote the sustainable supply and use of energy for the greatest benefit of all."
An executive summary and the entire report is available online to download in PDF format.

This is our second year using a Star Wars advent calendar. My son is 7 and he loved it last year. Not only did he get to pop a little window and build the mini figure but also go online to a link provided on the box where he could see the mini figure he just built in action on a mini clip. We will definitely keep buying these every year until he's no longer interested. The sale price was great.

Robert Boyle's Clockwork Universe
"What did he think of the Greek notion of nature? Simply put, Boyle believed it was inappropriate—both theologically and scientifically—to speak of "Nature" doing anything at all."
The Resource Finder has powerful filtering features — check out the tutorial to learn more.
"What did he think of the Greek notion of nature? Simply put, Boyle believed it was inappropriate—both theologically and scientifically—to speak of "Nature" doing anything at all."
"Where many scholars in previous generations simply assumed that Christianity and science have always been in conflict—and not just over evolution—recent scholarship has decisively debunked that view. The main message from today's historians is complexity, not conflict."
Today's Origins News Round-up takes us from some cosmic data on the possible existence of life elsewhere in the universe, to some surprising theories about the origin of life, and some interesting general news and editorial items on science and religion.
In this series, Ryan Pettey offers several clips from his powerful documentary "From the Dust". This feature-length film is divided up into various sections, each of which wrestles with the difficult problems that arise when reconciling Scripture with the theory of evolution. A light of hope dawns on the science-faith conversation, however, as scientists and theologians engage in honest dialogue about tough issues such as the interpretation of Genesis, the nature of the Fall, and the idea of random design. Their profound insights are sure to enlighten all minds, raise deeper questions, and provoke new thought.
This entry was originally posted on February 13, 2010. While the question of evolutionary predisposition toward religious belief may be challenging, Christians need not see it as threatening. In fact, this is actually a Pauline notion that is explored in Romans 1, where Paul claims that it is in mankind's nature to "know God".
This entry was originally posted on February 11, 2010. In this brief video, Professor Schloss addresses what he sees as the two primary reasons that evangelical Christians oppose evolutionary theory.
Astrobiology is the field of inquiry about the origin of life on our planet and the possibility of life elsewhere in the universe. Making a comeback is the theory that life began on Mars and emigrated from there to Earth via meteorites dislodged by collisions with asteroids.
We're excited to announce that the documentary From the Dust can now be purchased and rented through the iTunes Store!
I was raised in a household of atheists. My parents were card-carrying members of the American Communist Party, and therefore the atheism in my household was quite close to the militant anti-theism of the so-called "new atheists".
If your core value is serving God and you believe that anything but a literal interpretation of the Bible is disobedient to God, you can't hear any of the scientific arguments, and that was the way it was with me. Until I dealt with the loyalty question, I could not proceed to the science.
After we both exhaled some relieved laughter, I whispered, "I believe God created the world and holds it together. Just how he did that is up for debate, but whatever conclusions you come to about the earth's origins, God did it. Okay?"
What do today's pastors think about science? What views do they hold on creation and evolution and how strongly do they hold them? How do origins issues impact their ministries? These were just a few of the questions that motivated us at BioLogos to commission a survey of pastors on origins
In this video Conversation, Denis Alexander asserts that contemporary Christians are not taking the early chapters of Genesis seriously enough.
Congratulations to the 37 winners of the Evolution & Christian Faith (ECF) grants competition! ECF is a new BioLogos program designed to support projects and network-building among scholars, church leaders, and parachurch organizations.
In this video conversation, N.T. Wright discusses how the Enlightenment worldview -- which clearly separates God from the world -- has impacted our view of Scripture, and why cleaning the "spectacles" through which we view the world can help us see both Scripture and the world more clearly.
Although committed to the principle of sola Scriptura, Calvin recognized that the Bible would have been written in terms its original recipients would have understood. Calvin inherited the medieval cosmology of his time, a way of viewing the world heavily influenced by Greek thought and one which was about to receive shocks from astronomers such as Copernicus and Galileo. But not just yet.
People hold clearly discordant points of view, and it would be dishonest to ignore the conflict. Yet some voices emphasize the dissonance without any note of harmony to put it in context. Too often, science and faith becomes a hostile battle of worldviews, sounding angry, dissonant chords even among fellow Christians. But civil, gracious dialogue is possible.
This ongoing series written by historian Ted Davis begins with a brief synopsis of his personal background, and then goes on to reveal his passion for debunking "the now-common view that the history of science and Christianity is one of ongoing, inevitable conflict."
Genes and physiology are seen as something different from "us" and "our mind," and they seem to be controlling us, so we can't even change our mind. Humans are presented as pawns of their biology, puppets dancing to the tune of their genetic masters.
