Mayor's Office
Mayor Chris Beutler today announced his appointment of local businessman Nick Cusick to the Lincoln Airport Authority Board. He will replace Ed Raines who resigned from the position because he has moved away from Lincoln and no longer meets residency requirements. The appointment will go the City Council for confirmation.
Cusick is the co-founder and CEO of IMSCORP, a Lincoln-based holding company founded in 1974 that now includes three manufacturing subsidiaries. He has a masters' in business administration from UNL. His civic activities have included service on the boards of the Foundation for Lincoln Public Schools, Junior Achievement, the Lincoln Chamber of Commerce and the Bryan LGH Medical Center. The Mayor said Cusick has a proven record of success.
"It is a critical time for the Lincoln Airport Authority as they are in the process of implementing a development plan that includes the installation of infrastructure in an area generally north of the airport and west of Kawasaki," Mayor Beutler said. "Part of this plan includes a conditional grant award from the State of Nebraska to fund the project. To keep the momentum moving forward, I am expediting the process relating to the appointment of a new board member."
The five-member Airport Authority Board is the policy-making body for the airport and the Air Park industrial park. Members serve six-year terms on the unpaid board. Cusick would fill the remainder of Raines' term which ends in May 2013.
Cusick thanked the Mayor for his confidence and Raines for his service on the board.
"The entire aviation and commercial property that the federal government deeded to the Authority n 1968 is an important community asset, and it is critical that its potential is maximized for the benefit of all Lincolnites," Cusick said. "Over the next couple of months I will work with Executive Director John Wood and other board members to get up to speed on issues facing the Authority so that I can become a contributing member of the board. I look forward to a bright future for the Lincoln Airport Authority."

Paris Saint-Germain's latest addition Lucas Digne has revealed his hopes of winning Ligue 1 with his new club.
The 19-year-old joined the French champions from Lille on Wednesday for a fee rumoured to be around €15m.
After coming through the youth academy, he played in 49 league matches for Lille and is clearly held in high regard by the national selectors - he has represented France at every youth level and was a star of Les Blues' U20 World Cup campaign earlier this year.
Speaking in an interview with his new club, Digne said: "There are some really big stars in the team and I can't wait to play alongside the likes on Thiago Silva, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Blaise Mayuidi and Edinson Cavani."
He added: "You progress faster when you're rubbing shoulders with great players. When you sign for the French champions, you have to defend your crown. That will be one of the objectives."
The left-back is regarded as one of the world's most promising young defenders and alongside his clearly ambitious attitude, he could go on to become a household name in European football like his aforementioned team-mates.
Digne's ambitions of PSG retaining their Ligue 1 crown could prove realistic after Les Parisiens' acquisition of Napoli hitman Edinson Cavani.
The Uruguay forward partnered with Zlatan Ibrahimovic creates a fearsome strike-force and with this threat in front of goal, the title could well be returning to Parc des Princes.

You're right, that's an autumn/winter winner shade!

SO beautiful! I can see why you love it so much, it's such a classic colour!

I have this color, but haven't worn it yet... glad to see it was a worthy purchase, and hopefully I'll be painting my nails soon :)

Definitely one of Essie's best vamps! I've alternating between Wicked, Material Girl, Licorice and Bobbing For Baubles this season.

This looks very classy on you!!! I am with you with Chanel Frenzy, I would also hang on to China Glaze Hey Sailor (love bright reds) and Opi Road House Blues and if I could pick a fourth polish it would be Essie Lacy not Racy.

beautiful colour- looks just like dry wine!
hmm... If I had to choose my lon-time fav polish, I'd say: with holographic finish (no matter what colour exactly! ;).

Nice shade - I have a few in a really similar hue. I have an on going love affair with Flashbulb Fuchsia (OPI) on my toes. I wear others of course, but about ever 2-3 polish changes in sandal season - back goes on the Flashbulb Fuchsia. In the winter when no one sees my toes I branch out to include more fall/winter types of shades and really get into my favs of holiday like OPI Dear Santa is my die for fav holiday red of all time.

THE SQL Server Blog Spot on the Web
I ran across this recording about 3 months ago. It is a recording that is open to everyone. It was recorded at SQLBits 7 with Christian Bolton as the speaker for a session entitled: "Consolidating data collection with SQLDIAG and analysing it all with SQLNexus". I found it very informative and hope that you will too.
SQLBits is a UK based conference that occurs twice a year and I can't wait to attend one personally from the stories that I have heard. They record the sessions and make each one available for FREE access - AMAZING! You can find this session at the following URL: http://sqlbits.com/Sessions/Event7/Consolidating_data_collection_with_SQLDIAG_and_analysing_it_all_with_SQLNexus. The imbedded video has both a video of the speaker speaking to the audience as well as a full screen capture of the presentation to make the replay even more vivid.
Christian walks through the basics of using SQLDIAG for Data Collection initially. He then turns his attention to SQLNEXUS as a tool to analyze the data collected in SQLDIAG. He goes through how to configure SQLDIAG to collect the necessary data (perfmon and SQLTrace data) with the SQLDIAG process in order to discover the items needed for further analysis. If you need to perform a relatively quick analysis of a server, check this video out to discover your "pain points" for a particualr server.
After viewing this webcast, I am positive that you will find that using SQLDIAG along with SQLNEXUS will make your job easier.

Hi Rick,
Thanks for the review, I'm flattered that you took the time to write it :)
We're well underway with planning for SQLBits10 in London at the end of March to help launch SQL Server 2012. It would be great to see you there but if not all the sessions are being recorded and will be available for free as usual soon afterwards!
@Christian - Good Luck with SQL Bits 10! Not sure if I can make it there or not, but I'll definitely keep my eye open for the recordings when they come out.

Wabash vs. Mt. St. Joseph in 1st Roundby Jim Amidon • November 11, 2007 Share:
The Wabash College football team will host a first-round NCAA Division III playoff game for the third time since 2002 when the Little Giants host the College of Mount St. Joseph on Saturday, November 17. Kickoff is set for 12:00 noon. Tickets are $8 for adults and $4 for students with an ID. Tickets may be purchased at the Wabash Bookstore from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. today through Friday. For more information, contact the Bookstore at 765-361-6408 during business hours.
Wabash (9-1) captured the North Coast Athletic Conference Championship for the third straight year and earned the league's automatic berth in the 32-team playoff field. Wabash earned the third seed in the "Wisconsin-Whitewater bracket."
Mount St. Joseph, also 9-1, received an at-large bid for finishing second in the Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference. The Lions' only loss was a 28-19 defeat at the hands of Franklin College (9-1). The Lions enter the contest as the sixth seed in the region and have registered two shutouts in their last three games.
Wabash's 13-game winning streak came to an end on a last second field goal by DePauw in the 114th Monon Bell Classic for a 24-21 Tiger victory.
"We faced a lot of adversity early in the season and we had to come together as a family," said Coach Chris Creighton, who is 3-2 in his two previous trips to the playoffs. "We're going to do that again. We're going to regroup and come back together with a goal of going 1-0 this week."
Creighton led the Little Giants to the third round of the playoffs in 2002 with post-season wins over MacMurray (42-7) and Wittenberg (25-14) before Wabash fell to the eventual national champions, Mount Union, in the quarterfinals.
In 2005, after another prefect regular season, Creighton and quarterback Russ Harbaugh defeated Albion 38-20 in the opening round of the Division III tournament before Wabash lost a heartbreaker to Capital by a 14-11 score.
Wisconsin-Whitewater earned the region's top seed. The Warhawks have lost to Mount Union in the last two Division III championship games and enter the tournament with a 9-1 record, their only loss coming to Division II's Saint Cloud University. The Warhawks will square off against a tough 8-2 Capital University team in the opening round.
Case Western Reserve University won the University Athletic Association title and received a bid based on its 10-0 record. CWRU is the second seed in the region and will face Widener in the opening round.
Franklin College, which opened the year with a 35-33 loss to Wabash, has won nine straight and received the fourth seed. The Grizzlies will host fifth-seeded North Central University in the opening round.
Wisconsin-Whitewater Bracket
#7 Capital at #1 Whitewater
#5 North Central at #4 Franklin
#6 Mount St. Joseph at #3 Wabash
#8 Widener at #2 Case Western Reserve

Hudson roughed up before spirited rally falls short
CHICAGO -- The losing continued for the Giants, but their resurgence may have begun.
They performed fiercely in Wednesday's 7-6 loss to the White Sox, ignoring deficits of 4-0 and 7-2 before ultimately absorbing their season-high fifth consecutive defeat.View Full Game Coverage
CHICAGO -- The losing continued for the Giants, but their resurgence may have begun.
They performed fiercely in Wednesday's 7-6 loss to the White Sox, ignoring deficits of 4-0 and 7-2 before ultimately absorbing their season-high fifth consecutive defeat.View Full Game Coverage
Chris Sale, Chicago's formidable left-hander, struck out four of the first five hitters he faced. Then the Giants left the bases loaded in the third inning, brought the potential tying run to the plate in the fifth and eighth innings, twice filled the bases in the seventh and had the possible go-ahead run at bat in the ninth.
Though the Giants went 5-for-12 with runners in scoring position, they also stranded 11 runners, prompting manager Bruce Bochy to remark, "It seemed like we were a hit short in four or five innings."
San Francisco's eighth setback in nine games didn't resemble the trio of last weekend's come-from-ahead losses against Colorado. Nor did it echo the defeat that started this slump, the 9-2 rout administered by Washington on June 9. This effort prompted hope for the Giants instead of despair.
The Giants (43-29) no longer own the Major Leagues' best record. That distinction now belongs to the Oakland A's (44-28). But, said Giants outfielder Gregor Blanco, "The way we should lose is the way we lost today. We played a great game."
Blanco legitimately could have reserved some praise for himself. He went 3-for-4 with a run and an RBI while becoming only the second left-handed batter to record a hit this season off Sale. Josh Hamilton of the Angels is the other.
"It kind of doesn't mean anything," Blanco said, "because we lost."
Blanco may receive more chances to stoke his competitive fire in the near future. The Giants sent center fielder Angel Pagan to Phoenix, the next stop on their trip, ahead of the rest of the team to have his stiff back examined. Bochy acknowledged that Pagan, who has missed three consecutive games, might receive a pain-killing injection in an attempt to return him to the lineup. If Pagan doesn't respond to treatment, Blanco likely will inherit center field and the leadoff spot.
That happened after Pagan's left hamstring injury sidelined him last season. Blanco proceeded to hit .199 in July and August as the Giants faded into irrelevance. Now, with a .346 batting average (27-for-78) in his last 29 games, Blanco feels primed to assume the spotlight this time, if necessary.
"I know for sure I'm more ready now than last year," Blanco said. "A lot of offseason training -- I know that it has to pay off."
In a rare occurrence, Tim Hudson's presence on the mound failed to pay off for the Giants. San Francisco's steadiest starter this year had delivered five of his seven victories following defeats. But Hudson lasted just 4 2/3 innings, his shortest outing of the season excepting his three-inning stint in the May 22 suspended game at Colorado. He allowed all of Chicago's runs, a personal season high, and the 12 hits he surrendered matched a career high that he last reached on Sept. 2, 2005, when he pitched for Atlanta against Cincinnati.
This was Hudson's 440th career start and only the ninth in which he did not record a strikeout.
"It's frustrating, no question about it," said Hudson (7-3). "The guys played their butts off all day behind me and fought right to the end. To score six runs on the day I pitch, we should win those games."
Hudson repeatedly embraced trouble when he appeared on the verge of avoiding it. He twice yielded homers on 0-2 pitches -- in the first inning, when Jose Abreu lined a two-run clout, and in the fifth, when Adam Dunn belted a three-run tall ball. It was Dunn's 452nd career homer, tying him with Carl Yastrzemski for 35th all-time.
Hudson said that the split-fingered fastball that Abreu clobbered "wasn't quite buried as much as I wanted." As for Dunn, Hudson wanted the White Sox behemoth to chase a high fastball. Hudson said he didn't throw it high enough.
Hudson also yielded a two-run single in the fourth inning to Tyler Flowers, Chicago's ninth-place hitter, who was in an 0-for-25 skid. That helped drop Hudson's lifetime record at U.S. Cellular Field to 1-4 with a 9.78 ERA in six starts.

Shaq was wearing a Dodgers sweatshirt at the Clippers game, enough blue cloth there to double as a Dodger Stadium infield tarp, and he was shaking hands with Manager Don Mattingly.
"That's a billboard on him," said Mattingly, who apparently didn't want anyone to know where he worked.
A Clippers PR guy advised Mattingly not to get too close to Shaq in a picture that was being taken, lest he come off looking like a bobblehead doll by way of comparison.
So much for the highlight of Saturday's Clippers game in Staples Center, although I did have the chance to chat with one of my favorite athletes, Lamar Odom.
But first, encouraging news about the Lakers, and something that should make fans a little more forgiving when it comes to their poor team.

What is your life story? Why has life unfolded the way it has for you? Do you believe that you matter to God, and to others? Is it possible that you are really a part of a larger story, one that offers real meaning and purpose for your life?
This is a journey that you cannot walk alone. We live in an Epic story. There must be a fellowship. You must have intimate allies--a brotherhood, a sisterhood--authentic connection.
We believe walking with God and with others is the key to unlocking the answers to these and other questions. Our desire is to help you do just that--walk with God. To discover real life. To live authentically. No matter the cost.
The Christian life is an exciting journey, one that involves risk (faith) and adventure (action). And since different people find themselves at different points in their spiritual journey, our focus is on becoming, not arriving.
As we proclaim the treasure of the gospel, and Christ's desire to save and set people free to become all that God intends, we journey with others, pointing them to Christ as we move progressively through the Four Streams.Click here for more information on how to update your site.

Across THIS:
It is the Charleston Cooper Bridge. I have been wanting to try running it since we got here, and today being our last day I decided it was time to go for it! The bridge has a pedestrian walk way and a bike trial going across it. One way is 2.5 miles.
I ran across it and back, making a total of 5 miles. Oh yeah, did I mention that it also has EIGHT lanes of traffic and it 200 feet above the ocean?!
Yeah, I felt pretty darn hardcore. Talk about adrenaline rush. It was AMAZING! And such a good view!
I wanted to take my camera while I was running, but I really didnt want to drop it into the ocean or anything. So i figured that it was probably best to just leave it in my car where it would be safe and sound.
I did take a video of me driving back across after the run, just so you guys could see how crrrazzyy it was! Im not sure if it is working or not, but I'll try:
This morning before the run I had my usual breakfast while I am here:
When I got home I got ready and we went to Fort Sumter. It is an old fort off of Charleston Harbor that was used during the Civil War. We took a boat to get to the harbor and spent a few hours there.
Here is me being VERY annoyed with my mom for not listening to me, but playing it off as a joke :)
paparazzi pic, captured by my sister:
Back on the boat on the way back:
Hiding from the rain:
We didn't end up getting back home until almost 230! So we were all STARVED. And I don't know about you guys, but every single person in my family inherited that gene that makes you really really cranky when your hungry.
I finally got some sandwich stuff, so I was able to fix up a pretty legit sammie for lunch.
Turkey on Wheat with Lettuce, Tomato, Cheese, and Mustard. All toasted up!
My sister and I had planned on going out for sushi last night, but the weather got pretty bad and I didn't really feel like driving all the way back into Charleston. So we went to eat with the parents instead. We plan on going for sushi tonight.
Here is me and Sister #1 all dressed up for dinner:
And sister's #2 and #3:
Now its off to soak up as much sun as possible on the last day! Tomorrow we go home!
Hope everyone is having a great FRIDAY!
Lots of Love, <3 Ems.

Articles have been speculating about the possible bankruptcy of Sears Holding, the major retail chain in the United States and Canada. At $40 a share, that would be a tidy profit for the short community. But because of the unique situation of Sears Holding as a stock position for billionaire Eddie Lampert and his hedge fund, ESL Investments, it is more likely that the retailer will be taken private than file for bankruptcy.
Sears Holding was formed from Eddie Lampert combining the bankrupt K-Mart with Sears back in 2005. Observers speculated that Lampert was hoping to develop Sears Holding into an investment vehicle like Berkshire Hathaway is for Warren Buffett, who Lampert has attempted to follow. For Buffett, Berkshire Hathaway throws off free cash flow that allows him to acquire new investments. As a result, the original Berkshire Hathaway, a textile plant, is a non-factor in the Buffett investment portfolio.
Sears Holdings was looked at by many as doing the same for Lampert and ESL Holdings. Assets such as Land's End could be sold off and the vast real estate holdings monetized, which would produce billions to buy other companies. The cash flow would allow for other investments, too. The borrowing power of Sears Holding would also allow for Lampert to expand beyond the original stake, so that the core Sears Holding became a lesser a player in the overall investment paradigm.
For Lampert, though, it has been the opposite with Sears Holding. Sears Holdings provides a major share of the investments of his and has been the largest position of ESL Investments in recent 13F filings. Supporting its share price has required billions in stock buybacks that would have been better spent investing in a plain vanilla index fund that tracks the Standard & Poor's 500, as shown by the chart below.
Because of this position, it is doubtful if Lampert would let Sears Holding go bankrupt. It certainly has not performed as a trading or investment vehicle that has financed the purchase of other assets with excess capital. There have been no other companies acquired because of the cash flow generated by Sears Holding, in fact.

text: In a market crowded with Ultrabooks, it's the little things that set competitors apart and can make or break one over another. Apple's MacBook Air is known for long battery life. One Dell model has a screen that flips horizontally. Samsung and Lenovo offer detachable keyboards. What's special about the EliteBook Revolve 810 G1 from HP? Quite a few things, actually, and one of them isn't the way its screen flips around. Here are six things that set HP's latest laptop/tablet apart (it's technically not an Ultrabook), and at least three that make it just like so many others.

Model #1, 1868
A.F. Kitchen; Shelton Depot, SC
Clue: Burglar Beware
Model #1
Theft Prevention Device
When a thief or intruder entered from the other side of the door, the weighted chain attached to the door released the cocked hammer of the loaded pistol, which discharged at the intruder.
Model #2, 1871
E. Warren Hastings; Boston, MA
Clue: Smell
Model #2
Incense Burner
A small oil burner inside the base ignited a fuse that was connected to a metal container under the removable cover of the urn. Powdered incense placed in the container then burned, emitting a pleasing odor through the openings in the cover.

H. Hallock; Brookhaven, NY
Clue: May Day! May Day! May Day!
Model #3
Life Preserving Container
After the occupants entered the container through the door at one end, it automatically detached from its fastenings on the deck as the ship sank.

Model #4, 1865
Burr & Norman Platt; St. Louis, MO
Clue: Cotton
Model #4
Cotton Seed Planter
The seeds were poured into the top of the planter, and pins on the rotating shaft prevented the seeds from clogging while funneling them downward as the farmer pushed the planter along a plowed furrow.

Clue: Enclosure
Model #5
Fence Fabricating Machine
The contraption automatically twisted the wires around the fence posts that were fed by hand into the machine. This is one of the few models that showed the finished product emerging from the machine.

A THIEF who snatched an expensive mobile phone from a girl's hand is being hunted by police.
The victim was travelling on the 471 bus from Bolton to Bury when the thief grabbed her phone from her hand and ran off the bus.
The man made off with a Sony Ericsson ARCS mobile phone worth £200 and a bus pass.
He got off the bus opposite Morrison's in Bury Road, Breightmet, less than a mile after getting on it.
He fled on foot. The thief was seen running across the car park of Morrisons and Home Bargains but it is not known where he went afterwards.
The suspect and another man, who had no involvement in the theft, got on the bus at the Lexus garage in Bury Road, Tonge Fold, at about 4.10pm on January 17.
The wanted man is white, in his 20s, and was wearing a black hooded jacket, a black hat and dark tracksuit bottoms.
Det Insp Charlotte Cadden, from Bolton North Neighbourhood Policing Team, said: "This was a mean offence that took place on a public bus where people should be able to feel safe.
"I am confident people will have either seen this man getting off the bus or will recognise him.
"I urge people to take a close look at the photograph and description of the man wanted for theft."
People with information are asked to call police on 0161 856 5761 or call Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555111.

The year 1918 doesn't seem all that far away, all things considered. And yet, futurists of the time thought some day we'd be traveling through space at the "terrific" speed of two miles a minute. That's 120 mph. To the moon in 83 days? Preposterous!
That was the pronouncement of children's learning tome Our Wonder World, circa 1918. The book's authors also thought it would take just 88 1/3 years to get to the sun. That means, if a ship left in 1918, it would have arrived at the sun the same year Limp Bizkit released Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water. They were only off by a factor of infinity. Still, it's kind of a strange prediction, considering by then Victor Hémery had already broken the 120 mph barrier in a Darracq V8 Special — in 1906!
Get a high-res version of the page from Infomercantile.
If man should invade space—A Race for sun, moon, and planets at the terrific speed of two miles a minute
Man has invaded space—not in airplanes which would fall to pieces with age before Earth's near neighbors were visited, but with thoughts which travel faster and work more miracles even than the light of the sun. Standing on his own tiny planet, an infinitesimal atom in a boundless universe, he can with cunningly contrived pieces of glass bring many thousands of other worlds to him, and make them tell him their story.
By measuring the speed of light, he can tell their distance; by splitting up their faint rays of light, he can judge of what they are made. Though they be a million times as big as he, yet standing on his little spot of earth, he can weigh them as he would weigh a pound of sugar. Keeping track of their movements, he can tell where they will be hundreds of years in the future.

Any American Pickers (or similar) fans out there? Can you make out or recognize the name on the little toy wagon below?
Anyone recognize this vista?
There's a hint on the back:
Whoa, so I just Googled York Haven and found a Wikipedia entry about the area. Only 709 residents in the 2010 census? If it's always been that small and there's a connection to this album still living there… Well, the task doesn't seem so monumental when the number is that small. However, if the town was much bigger in the earlier 20th century and the population then dwindled? Well, the family could be anywhere…
Another scene on the wagon:
Anyone been to Gettysburg lately? Recognize these rocks?
'Cause they're apparently in Gettysburg:
I'm beginning to wonder about how this album and its cousin ended up in an Easton antique store. So, if the photo above was taken circa 1928, the babe pictured would be in their late 80s. Perhaps they have passed on and they never had children to whom these photos would mean something. It makes me sad. I do hope I can find a family member who cares enough to keep them. If not, I'm happy enough to keep them myself.

CK Boy Toy Nick Gruber Allegedly Kicked Out Of Fire Island Party
This comes anecdotally from porn impresario Michael Lucas, so take it with a dash of salt alongside the shade. Apparently, Nick Gruber, the flamboyantly heterosexual former boy toy of 70-year old Calvin Klein, was kicked out of an Ascension Weekend party on Fire Island for being, well, himself.
Michael Lucas retold the story on Facebook:
I saw this arrogant guy who was being rude to people, shoving two guys away after they bumped into him. I heard him say, "keep your hands away from me! I"m straight!" So I went over to him, and asked him why he was being so rude.
He said, "I am straight, and I don't want any gay people to touch me." At which point, I told him "you're leaving."
He said, "do you know who I am?" I said, "I don't know, and I don't even want to know who you think you are."
Then he said, "try me." I said "watch me". I called over to security and had him hauled away without his feet even touching the floor. Then someone explained to me that this is the ex boyfriend of Calvin Klein, Nick Gruber, who just "came out" as "straight."
I have never heard about this guy before and had no idea what he looked like. I've never read any of the gossip that supposedly surrounds him. So, I guess he came to a gay party to let everyone know he is "straight."
Sound believable, instincters?

Chasing Christians Down the Rabbit Hole
We used to be evangelicals, or at least, that's how we best described who we were as former believers. We know what evangelicals believe. Or do we? Well it depends on what beliefs are essential to evangelicalism, doesn't it? Maybe I should start a post and limit participation to Christians themselves, who would debate what beliefs are specifically Christian, along with who or what is an evangelical? That would be fun, except that few Christians would participate because they know the rest of us would be laughing our butts off as they debate those things.
This is not a one-on-one discussion. There is no way we can address any specific professing Christian's beliefs, unless we know what they are. We write from our background as former evangelicals, and that's all we can do. If others visit DC who claim the evangelical faith is different than what we express, or if a liberal Christian visits here, remember: "if the shoe fits wear it, if not, then don't try to put it on," okay? And to demand of us to write about stuff we don't want to write about, or to demand we deal with things that are uninteresting to us, is unreasonable. What if I demanded the same thing of you? Would you write about uninteresting stuff you don't want to write about just because I demanded it? Hardly.
We cannot write any given blog entry against the whole gamut of Christian beliefs, or it may end up being somewhat of a book. But if you tell us what you specifically believe about Christianity and if it's interesting to us, then we might. Keep in mind that we cannot deal with what every single believer thinks is the case. That's why we're reduced to writing generalized accounts from our own experience of what evangelicals believe.
Not long ago over at Parchment and the Pen was a discussion about why Christians have doctrinal disputes. After reading through this discussion here's my explanation for why they do:
The real reason why other Christians don't agree with you is because of the nature of a history itself, along with the fact that God purportedly revealed himself in the ancient past. My argument is that if God did reveal himself, he chose a poor medium (history) and a poor era (the ancient past) to do so, and that makes an omniscient God look stupid.
We have a hard enough time understanding one another living in today's world. We disagree about everything and we are constantly correcting misunderstandings about what we have said. So it stands to reason that this is compounded when we try to understand the literature of the ancient past. This is just obvious to me.
Of course, if God wanted to communicate more clearly and he could foresee that Southern slavery and witch hunts would result because he wasn't clear, he could've said "Thou shalt not own, buy, sell, trade or beat slaves of any kind," and said it often enough that believers could not misunderstand. He could've done the same with witch hunts and avoided the Galileo debacle as well. Genesis 1 could've started out by stating more clearly the nature of creation. [If you'd like, I could show you how an omniscient God could've communicated better, and I only have an IQ of 160.]
What's the alternative, you may ask? For God to reveal himself today on the great issues that divide the church. How could he do this? Through miracles and the church's recognition of a 14th Apostle "like unto Paul." In the meantime the disunity of the church speaks against the existence of the illuminating work of the Holy Spirit who has not done his job down through the centuries, and therefore provides evidence the Christian faith is a delusion.
Now back to Jim Jordan. Jim, would you be so kind as to tell us the beliefs that professing Christians hold to that you think are "apostasies," why you consider such beliefs to be "apostasies," how many professing Christians agree with you about them, and what it means to describe those beliefs as "apostasies?" Would you also explain why Christians have so many doctrinal disputes over their beliefs? Would you additionally explain why you think what you said applied to what I had written? Lastly, don't forget to tell us what are the true set of Christian beliefs.
This should be very interesting. Sheesh.

AUSTIN, Texas – Senior Andrea Ward set a new school record in the 100 butterfly while all four of UCSB's representatives set personal records in their respective events on Thursday, day one of the Texas Invitational.
In the morning preliminaries Ward swam a first place time of 51.76 in the 100 butterfly. Not only was it good for a school record, she swam the fifth fastest time in the nation and automatically qualified herself in the NCAA's. Seeded first in the evening finals, Ward swam a 52.32, coming in second place. Ward also swam in the 50 freestyle finishing with times of 23.32 in the prelims and 23.50 in the finals.
Sophomore Katie Records swam in the 200 individual medley and established a personal record in the finals with a time of 203.47.
For the men, Junior Wade Allen swam the 100 butterfly and qualified in eighth place for the finals with a morning time of 47.23. In the evening, Allen tied his personal and school record time of 46.65, good for fourth place in the finals. Allen also swam the 50 freestyle to a time of 19.82 in the prelims. His time of 19.69 in the finals ties him for tenth fastest in the country.
Senior Ryan Hanni swam a personal record in the 50 freestyle finals and will garner NCAA consideration with a time of 20.05.
Through six events, every swimmer has set a personal record and the Gauchos will look to build on their strong swims on Friday at 10am.

JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (Jan. 2, 2006) - The Atlantic Sun Conference announced on Monday that ETSU senior Tim Smith (Newport News, Va.) has been named player of the week for games played Dec. 26 through Jan. 1.
It is the first individual A-Sun honor earned by a Buccaneer men's basketball player, and it gave ETSU basketball a sweep of the A-Sun weekly honors, as earlier in the day senior women's guard B.J. Banjo (
Smith, a 5-foot-9 guard, earned the honor after leading the Bucs to their second-straight win, an 82-70 victory over
His 24 points helped him move to No. 3 on the ETSU all-time scoring list with 1,884 points, overtaking former Buc great Calvin Talford (1988-92), who scored 1,872 points in his career. Smith remains on pace to become the program's all-time leading scorer by year's end, chasing Greg Dennis (1987-92), who netted 2,204 points in his time at ETSU.
This A-Sun honor only adds to Smith's list of accolades, which includes back-to-back Southern Conference Tournament MVPs, Freshman of the Year honors in 2002-03, and two first-team All-SoCon selections in 2003-04 and 2004-05.
Smith and the Bucs return to action in A-Sun play on Wednesday night when they host Florida Atlantic in

Apple overnight has pushed out a new "Apple Events" channel to the Apple TV. The new channel, which is accessible via an icon on the Apple TV Home screen that looks a lot like today's iPad mini event invitation, allows access to not only previous Apple keynotes, but will also allow Apple TV owners to watch today's iPad and Mac event live.
So far there's no indication Apple will stream the event to other devices, iOS or Mac. If that remains the case, focusing on the Apple TV is interesting. While it might prompt a few mad dashes to the store from people who haven't yet bought the $99 iTunes living room box, it also will greatly constrain the number of people who can potentially watch live. iOS devices have sold in the hundreds of millions. Apple TVs... nowhere nearly as much. Live streaming is expensive and troublesome to scale, and Apple events tend to be among the biggest on the internet, so it would give Apple a much smaller, easier target to serve.
The last time Apple offered a live stream was way back in 2010. We'll keep our eyes open for additional streaming options, but in the meantime, anyone rushing out for an Apple TV?
Update: You can watch via iPhone, iPod touch, iPad, and Mac as well as well.

Nursing Diagnosis: Anxiety
NANDA Definition: Anxiety is a vague, uneasy feeling of discomfort or dread accompanied by an autonomic response, with the source often nonspecific or unknown to the individual; a feeling of apprehension caused by anticipation of danger. It is an altering signal that warns of impending danger and enables the individual to take measures to deal with threat.
Defining Characteristics:
Diminished productivity; scanning and vigilance; poor eye contact; restlessness; glancing about; extraneous movement (e.g., foot shuffling, hand/arm movements); expressed concerns resulting from change in life events; insomnia; fidgeting
Regretful; irritability; anguish; scared; jittery; overexcited; painful and persistent increased helplessness; rattled; uncertainty; increased wariness; focus on self; feelings of inadequacy; fearful; distressed; apprehension; anxious
Voice quivering
Trembling/hand tremors; insomnia
Shakiness; worried; regretful
Increased pulse; increased blood pressure; increased tension; cardiovascular excitation; heart pounding; superficial vasoconstriction; respiratory difficulties; increased respiration; increased perspiration; facial flushing; facial tension; pupil dilation; anorexia; dry mouth; weakness; increased reflexes; twitching
Decreased pulse; decreased blood pressure; abdominal pain; nausea; diarrhea; urinary urgency; urinary hesitancy; urinary frequency; tingling in extremities; fatigue; faintness; sleep disturbance
Blocking of thoughts; confusion; preoccupation; forgetfulness; rumination; impaired attention; decreased perceptual field; fear of nonspecific consequences; tendency to blame others; difficulty concentrating; diminished ability to problem solve; diminished learning ability; awareness of physiological symptoms
Related Factors: Unconscious conflict regarding essential values or life goals; threat to self-concept; threat of death; threat to or change in health status, environment, interaction patterns; situational or maturational crises; interpersonal transmission of contagion; unmet needs

NIC Interventions (Nursing Interventions Classification)
Suggested NIC Labels
• Anxiety Reduction
Nursing Interventions and Rationales
• Assess client's level of anxiety and physical reactions to anxiety (e.g., tachycardia, tachypnea, nonverbal expressions of anxiety). Validate observations by asking client, "Are you feeling anxious now?" Anxiety is a highly individualized, normal physical and psychological response to internal or external life events (Badger, 1994).
• Use presence, touch (with permission), verbalization, and demeanor to remind clients that they are not alone and to encourage expression or clarification of needs, concerns, unknowns, and questions. Being supportive and approachable encourages communication (Olson, Sneed, 1995).
• Accept client's defenses; do not confront, argue, or debate. If defenses are not threatened, the client may feel safe enough to look at behavior (Rose, Conn, Rodeman, 1994).
• Allow and reinforce client's personal reaction to or expression of pain, discomfort, or threats to well-being (e.g., talking, crying, walking, other physical or nonverbal expressions). Talking or otherwise expressing feelings sometimes reduces anxiety (Johnson, 1972).
• Help client identify precipitants of anxiety that may indicate interventions. Gaining insight enables the client to reevaluate the threat or identify new ways to deal with it (Damrosch, 1991).
• If the situational response is rational, use empathy to encourage client to interpret the anxiety symptoms as normal. Anxiety is a normal response to actual or perceived danger (Peplau, 1963).
• If irrational thoughts or fears are present, offer client accurate information and encourage him or her to talk about the meaning of the events contributing to the anxiety. This study shows that during diagnosis and management of cancer, highlighting the importance of the meaning of events to an individual is an important factor in making people anxious. Acknowledgment of this meaning may help to reduce anxiety (Stark, House, 2000).
• Encourage the client to use positive self-talk such as "Anxiety won't kill me," "I can do this one step at a time," "Right now I need to breathe and stretch," "I don't have to be perfect." Cognitive therapies focus on changing behaviors and feelings by changing thoughts. Replacing negative self-statements with positive self-statements helps to decrease anxiety (Fishel, 1998).
• Avoid excessive reassurance; this may reinforce undue worry. Reassurance is not helpful for the anxious individual (Garvin, Huston, Baker, 1992).
• Intervene when possible to remove sources of anxiety. Anxiety is a normal response to actual or perceived danger; if the threat is removed, the response will stop.
• Explain all activities, procedures, and issues that involve the client; use nonmedical terms and calm, slow speech. Do this in advance of procedures when possible, and validate client's understanding. With preadmission patient education, patients experience less anxiety and emotional distress and have increased coping skills because they know what to expect (Review, 2000). Uncertainty and lack of predictability contribute to anxiety (Garvin, Huston, Baker, 1992).
• Explore coping skills previously used by client to relieve anxiety; reinforce these skills and explore other outlets. Methods of coping with anxiety that have been successful in the past are likely to be helpful again. Listening to clients and helping them to sort through their fears and expectations encourages them to take charge of their lives (Fishel, 1998).
• Provide backrubs for clients to decrease anxiety. In one study the dependent variable, anxiety, was measured prior to back massage, immediately following, and 10 minutes later on four consecutive evenings. There was a statistically significant difference in the mean anxiety (STAI) score between the back massage group and the no intervention group (Fraser, Kerr, 1993). In a discussion of the results of a systematic review of 22 articles examining the effect of massage on relaxation, comfort, and sleep, the most consistent effect of massage was reduction in anxiety. Out of 10 original research studies, 8 reported that massage significantly decreased anxiety or perception of tension (Richards, Gibson, Overton-McCoy, 2000).
• Provide massage before procedures to decrease anxiety. In one study parents performed massage on their hospitalized preschoolers and school-age children before venous puncture. The results obtained indicate that massage had a significant effect on nonverbal reactions, especially those related to muscular relaxation (Garcia, Horta, Farias, 1997).
• Use therapeutic touch and healing touch techniques. Various techniques that involve intention to heal, laying on of hands, clearing the energy field surrounding the body, and transfer of healing energy from the environment through the healer to the subject can reduce anxiety (Fishel, 1998). In a recent study, anxiety was significantly reduced in a therapeutic touch placebo condition. Healing touch may be one of the most useful nursing interventions available to reduce anxiety (Gagne and Toye in Fishel, 1998).
• Provide clients with a means to listen to music of their choice. Provide a quiet place and encourage clients to listen for 20 minutes. Music is a simple, inexpensive, esthetically pleasing means of alleviating anxiety. When allowed to participate in decision-making regarding their care, patients can regain a partial sense of control. As patient advocates, nurses should take advantage of the therapeutic effect of music by incorporating it into their plan of care (Evans, Rubio, 1994). Immediately and 1 hour after listening to music for 20 minutes in a quiet environment, reductions in heart rate, respiratory rate, and myocardial oxygen demand were significantly greater in the experimental group of patients with myocardial infarction than in the control group (White, 1999).
• For the client experiencing preoperative anxiety, provide music of their choice for listening. A study indicates that music combined with preoperative instruction can be more beneficial than preoperative instruction alone for reducing the anxiety of ambulatory surgery patients. Patients who listened to their choice of music before surgery in addition to receiving preoperative instruction had significantly lower heart rates than patients in the control group who received only preoperative instruction (Augustin, Hains, 1996).
• Animal-assisted therapy (AAT) can be incorporated into the care of perioperative patients. A study of perioperative clients has shown that interacting with animals reduces blood pressure and cholesterol, decreases anxiety, and improves a person's sense of well-being ( Miller, Ingram, 2000).
• Rule out withdrawal from alcohol, sedatives, or smoking as the cause of anxiety. Withdrawal from these substances is characterized by anxiety (Badger, 1994).
• Identify and limit, discontinue, or be aware of the use of any stimulants such as caffeine, nicotine, theophylline, terbutaline sulfate, amphetamines, and cocaine. Many substances cause or potentiate anxiety symptoms.
• Monitor client for depression. Use appropriate interventions and referrals. Anxiety often accompanies or masks depression in elderly adults.
• Provide a protective and safe environment. Use consistent caregivers and maintain the accustomed environmental structure. Elderly clients tend to have more perceptual impairments and adapt to changes with more difficulty than younger clients, especially during illness (Halm, Alpen, 1993).
• Observe for adverse changes if antianxiety drugs are taken. Age renders clients more sensitive to both the clinical and toxic effects of many agents.
• Provide a quiet environment with diversion. Excessive noise increases anxiety; involvement in a quiet activity can be soothing to the elderly.
• Assess for the presence of culture-bound anxiety states. The context in which anxiety is experienced, its meaning, and responses to it are culturally mediated. The following culture-bound syndromes are related to anxiety: Susto-Latin America, Nervios-Latin America, Dhat-Asia, Koro-Southeast Asia, Kayak angst-Eskimo, Taijin kyousho-Japan, Nervous breakdown-African Americans (Kavanagh, 1999; Charron, 1998).
• Assess for the influence of cultural beliefs, norms, and values on the client's perspective of a stressful situation. What the client considers stressful may be based on cultural perceptions (Leininger, 1996).
• In the culturally diverse client identify how anxiety is manifested. Anxiety is manifested differently from culture to culture through cognitive to somatic symptoms (Charron, 1998).
• Acknowledge that value conflicts from acculturation stresses may contribute to increased anxiety. Challenges to traditional beliefs and values are anxiety provoking (Charron, 1998).
Client/Family Teaching
• Teach client and family the symptoms of anxiety. If client and family can identify anxious responses, they can intervene earlier than otherwise (Reider, 1994). Information is empowering and reduces anxiety (Fishel, 1998).
• Because intensive care unit (ICU) stays are increasingly shorter, provide written teaching information that is readily available to clients when they are transferred out. Time constraints have become a barrier to effective teaching. A pamphlet (available in Spanish and English) has been developed to ease the move for patients, families, and critical care and medical nurses from a medical ICU (MICU) to a general floor. Reading this pamphlet has helped to reduce symptoms of anxiety (Maillet, Pata, Grossman, 1993).
• Help client to define anxiety levels (from "easily tolerated" to "intolerable") and select appropriate interventions. Mild anxiety enhances learning and adaptation, but moderate to severe anxiety may impede or immobilize progress (Peplau, 1963).
• Consider referral for the prescription of antianxiety medications for clients who have panic disorder (PD) associated with anxiety. PD may be treated with drugs, psychosocial intervention, or both. In a recent study, the combination of imipramine and cognitive-behavioral therapy appeared to confer limited advantage acutely but more substantial advantage by the end of maintenance (Barlow et al, 2000).
• Teach client techniques to self-manage anxiety. Mental health interventions during hospitalization should emphasize teaching patients to manage their own anxiety instead of directly intervening to reduce current levels of anxiety (Rose, Conn, Rodeman, 1994).
• Teach client to identify and use distraction or diversion tactics when possible. Early interruption of the anxious response prevents escalation.
• Teach client to allow anxious thoughts and feelings to be present until they dissipate. Allowing and even devoting time and energy to a thought, purposefully and repetitively, reduces associated anxiety (Beck, Emery, 1985).
• Teach progressive muscle relaxation techniques. In one study, a significant reduction in anxiety level was obtained by using progressive muscle relaxation interventions (Weber, 1996).
• Teach relaxation breathing for occasional use: client should breathe in through nose, fill slowly from abdomen upward while thinking "re," and then breathe out through mouth, from chest downward, and think "lax." Anxiety management training effectively treats both specific and generalized anxiety (Fishel, 1998).
• Teach client to visualize or fantasize about the absence of anxiety or pain, successful experience of the situation, resolution of conflict, or outcome of procedure. Use of guided imagery has been useful for reducing anxiety (Weber, 1996).
• Teach relationship between a healthy physical and emotional lifestyle and a realistic mental attitude. Health and well-being are influenced by how well-defined and met needs are in areas of safety, diet, exercise, sleep, work, pleasure, and social belonging. Exercise is an excellent means of decreasing anxiety (Fishel, 1998). Results of cross-sectional and longitudinal studies seem to indicate that aerobic exercise training has antidepressant and anxiolytic effects and protects against harmful consequences of stress (Salmon, 2000).
• Teach use of appropriate community resources in emergency situations (e.g., suicidal thoughts), such as hotlines, emergency rooms, law enforcement, and judicial systems. The method of suicide prevention found to be most effective is a systematic, direct-screening procedure that has a high potential for institutionalization (Shaffer, Craft, 1999).
• Encourage use of appropriate community resources: family, friends, neighbors, self-help and support groups, volunteer agencies, churches, clubs and centers for recreation, and other persons with similar interests. One of the most reassuring elements of care includes access to the family (Fishel, 1998). Vicarious experience provided through dyadic support is effective in helping patients undergoing cardiac surgery to cope with surgical anxiety and in improving self-efficacy expectations and self-reported activity after surgery (Parent, Fortin, 2000).
• Provide family members with information to help them to distinguish between a panic attack and serious physical illness symptoms. Instruct family members to consult a health care professional if they have questions. Education on managing anxiety disorders must include family members because they are the ones usually called upon to take the client for emergency care. Family members can be expert informants because of their familiarity with the client's history and symptoms (Fishel, 1998).
