Having the same issues with my MacbookAir. Static sound once connected, multiple disconnections after short periods of time...
What is going on? Why can't they reproduce this problems at Jambox at give an official update instead of contacting the users one by one?
Hi all,
I bought my jambox as a birthday present to myself on January 16 after I saw it being used by my stepson. I thought it was the coolest thing! He was using it with his iPhone and I thought it would be perfect for using with my new MacBookPro at my office. Then the next day my house caught on fire and I have been a bit preoccupied with that.
I had no problem pairing with my iPhone or my iPad. Worked great and I was a happy camper. However, when I tried to pair with my new MacBookPro (with Lion preinstalled), it would not work. I would get the "Jambox paired" confirmation voice, but in the bluetooth preferences it would not show it connected. And I could not get it to play anything from iTunes. When I hit play in iTunes, it would do nothing.
I called customer service and got no where. Nothing we tried worked. Then I found this forum when I searched the internet for this problem, and tried what arjunpr3 suggested to no avail. And, even though darickster said his procedures worked for him, I thought it was ridiculous that I had to reset all this to just get the darn thing to work on my Mac. And to have to do it 5 times a day is unacceptable!
Of course it's been over 30 days since I bought the device, so now I have a $200 paperweight! I really don't need this frustration on top of everything else. Please, will somebody from Jambox or Apple get their stuff together and fix this!!!!!
Or does anyone else out there have a fix for this???? It can't be that hard!!!
Just want to set things straight, i did have my deal of frustrations with the device, and it still has its quirks, but its working effortlessly and has so for more than a week. No pairing needed.
Skype usually makes the whole device unuseable afterwards as it doesnt use the jambox as output so changes it.
I have tinkered with it a lot just there are three district differences in errors people are having and i had all three.
error 1: it pairs but doesnt connect (the bt icon says it has thoughput but nothing can be heard)
error 2: (more common): it connects and throws you an error panel (which could be apple related as the timeout for the error is way too short)
error 3: it doesnt pair, it (mac) just sits there and doesnt make an effort to connect (bt icon without dashes line)
1 is related to sound output settings on the mac, check that in the bt menu (changing input generally triggers error 2), or in some cases you still having the mini jack connected (happened here)
2 usually unpair and re-pair does the trick
3 (sounds like you have that one) is a major pain in the ... do all the things i wrote about earlier to get rid of it, it just means the bt audio agent isnt triggered.
I dont think Apple is making an effort, as they are gearing towards the next release of mac os..
Wow! If I'd read all of this befoe I'd never have bought the devise. The advice to all Mac users should be DO NOT BUY IT !! Total waste of money. You should be ashamed.
Odd. I had not used my Jawbone Jambox in a while, and th elast tiume I used it was paired to an iPhone. I thought I'd unpair and pair it with my iMac to have music while I worked in the back yard. The iMac was running 10.7.3 (11D50b). The iMac seems topair and recognize the devoice and egts allthe right capabilities, but no sound from the Jambox.
If I un- and re-pair to an iPad, it all works. And there is a one big difference: when I perform this with the iPad, the Jambox voice confirms the pairing. I didn't remember to expect that when pairing on MacOS, so I had not missed it. But it's true: the Jambox never voice-confirms a pairing with my iMac.
I'll go look for any firmware updates for my Jambox -- never have updated it, perhaps it's juststale?
Well, there was an update waiting for my Jambox, and it did fix the Jambox not confirming a pairing. But even after having it confirm a pairing, I still cannot get it to play audio from my iMac. It continues to work well with my iPad, so.. not sure where to go next.
You complaining hipster idiots annoy me. You sure put forth a lot of effort in crying and whining but no real effort in trying to think outside the box. It's obvious that Lion is the cause of the problem here, not the Jambox. So me, being an insightful thinker, decided to use that new Web site called Google. I did a thing called search for "Lion bluetooth issues'". And guess what I came across: a fix! Since I'm tired of reading the stupid complaints in this thread from a bunch of dummies, I will be nice and post the fix in VERY SIMPLE TERMS. Of course, if you can't follow simple directions, don't try this fix because you will break your precious little Mac if you type the wrong thing (and with this crowd I wouldn't be shocked):
1) Open Terminal
2) Run the following commands ONE AT A TIME! COPY AND PASTE IF NEEDED!
sudo rm -rf ~/Library/Caches/*
sudo rm -rf /Library/Caches/*
sudo rm -rf /System/Library/Caches/*
sudo rm -rf ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Bluetooth*
sudo su --
cd /var/root/Library/Preferences/
mv blued.plist blued.plist.BAK
Thank you, I've never been called hipster before (idiot, yes!). Weirdly, last night, my blutooth suddenly worked for no apparent reason. But I'll keep the explanation below just in case it fails again. Thanks for that.
First of all, doesn't work.
Second of all, Hardly Simple.
The whole idea here is that it should smoothly connect and disconnect as I please. The fact that I have to uninstlal the Jambox completely, reboot, and reconfigure, every time I want to use it is absurd for a $200 little speaker. This is a glorified doorstop until this is fixed.
FYI, It is working again, and I'll report back on if it is permanent or not.
I removed the Mac from the Jambox via Mytalk.
Then I removed the Jambox from the list of available devices on the macbook.
Then I followed the instructions above.
shut down, restarted, repaired, and it is working for nw...

Prominent truck and Jeep accessory superstore for off-roaders 4 Wheel Parts introduces Google Maps Business Photos for its Redondo Beach, California store. This pioneering feature allows online users to take a virtual tour of the entire store at Google Maps before they visit.
Compton, CA (PRWEB) February 06, 2013
The 4 Wheel Parts Redondo Beach store debuted its Google Maps Business Photo feature, a virtual tour of the showroom displaying the entire layout and allowing users navigability to zoom in or out to view off-road running boards, lift kits, tires and wheels. Accessible from the Google Maps page, the tour depicts high resolution images of products for off-road vehicles, allowing users interactivity. Products the store carries include tires, lift kits, winches, and shock absorbers and the virtual tour is an ideal way for 4x4 owners to see specific brands. They can even enter the service facilities to view 4x4s being worked on and get a sense of the 4 Wheel Parts store premises.
The vote is in and reaction to the online feature has been overwhelmingly positive. "A customer came in and told me he'd checked out the layout of our store on Google and saw that we had the winch he was looking for," says Redondo Beach 4 Wheel Parts Store Manager Erik Bauhofer. "People really like the new online feature." 4 Wheel Parts is planning on making this unique feature available for more of their 50+ store locations. Competitors such as Pep Boys are not offering Google Maps Business Photos of their locations at this time.
Google Maps Business Photos are a great way to conveniently access a brick and mortar store online. Users can zoom in and move 360° to interact with a space and examine products. The images appear on Google in searches, maps, and Google+ and can be embedded on business websites and social media pages. Customers have the ability to find images and then share them with others.
E-commerce has revolutionized the way people shop, and although purchasing online is preferred, brick and mortar stores are still vital for certain uses. The virtual tour combines the best of both worlds, allowing customers to "window shop" a showroom on the Web. This is the latest innovative offering 4 Wheel Parts has for off-road enthusiasts who rely on the retailer for pivotal products and standout service.
About 4 Wheel Parts: 4 Wheel Parts is a retailer and service provider specializing in aftermarket parts for off-road and 4x4 enthusiasts. With 56 locations nationwide, 4 Wheel Parts supplements its retail centers with a robust mail-order and e-commerce distribution network to serve customers around the country and around the world. 4 Wheel Parts carries a large inventory of truck and Jeep parts, including fender flares, tonneau covers, tires, winches and more.

Today Kaleidescape launched a new online store where you can download movies directly to a Kaleidescape system that are bit-for-bit the same as Blu-ray and DVD.
It's a cool idea, since iTunes and Amazon downloads are compressed at best, and 720p at worst.
What this could mean, and more info, after the jump.
Kaleidescape's whole thing from the beginning has been instant access to your movie collection, in the best quality possible. It's that second part that's separated them from other media server/media streaming companies. Sure you can download movies and TV shows from iTunes, Amazon, VUDU, but these aren't the same quality as what you can get from Blu-ray (though VUDU comes closest with their HDX).
It may not seem like a big difference, but if you have a larger TV or a projector, it's really noticeable. On the audio side, this is an even bigger improvement, giving you access to the same Dolby TrueHD and DTS HD Master Audio tracks that are on the disc. Plus, you get all the extra features too.
For Kaleidescape customers, the store will know what titles you have, and will only recommend new titles. It will also give you the option, for a small fee, to upgrade your SD movies to their HD version. Knowing your library also gives them the option to suggest new titles you may like, and "buy all" options like every movie from a specific director or actor. These movies will then download over the next few hours. How fast will depend on your connection, and there's even an option to throttle back on the system's bandwidth, so if you're downloading a movie, you can still stream video, play games, or download something else without the Kaleidescape stealing the entire pipe.
There are other improvements over iTunes as well. You can download the movie to any other Kaleidescape system you own, like in a vacation house. If you accidently delete the file, you can re-download it as many times as you want.
So I like that Kaleidescape has opened this door. Discs are archaic. Blu-ray will be our last disc format, so why not just get rid of it altogether? A step back in quality is unacceptable, to me at least, in the name of convenience.
To start, Warner is the only company to have signed on. This means there are about 3,000 movies and more than 8,000 television episodes. No iTunes, for sure, but with any luck more studios will join up. After all, it seems like such a no-brainer. The studios get full price for their movie, but don't have to produce (and ship) a physical disc. Kaleidescape is a closed system, so there's no way to get the movie off the box to pirate it.
True, you can't bring a disc over to your friend's house to watch it (or let them borrow it), but you do get access to Ultraviolet, so you can watch the movie on a portable device. Yes, this isn't a BD quality stream, but your device isn't BD quality, so I'm not sure this is a big deal.
I think another aspect of this is a clear path to 4K UltraHD. Despite my lamenting that for most people 4K is ridiculous overkill, I don't think anyone will argue that it's inevitable. So how do you get the content? Compressing it enough to fit on a Blu-ray would sort of defeat the point. Streaming seems possible, but that's a lot of bandwidth, and again, compression? I think downloads are the obvious solution. A high-end product like Kaleidescape certainly isn't for everyone, but like all big steps in technology, it's the high-end that does it first, sorts out the difficulties, and then the prices start to drop.
Kaleidescape's store is live now, with movie prices as close as possible to the price of the disc. Because it's still in beta, currently only DVD-quality downloads are available, with 1080p rolling out in early 2013. Hopefully it will be successful enough that other studios sign on, and the market for bit-for-bit BD-quality downloads expands.
Our own John Sciacca was in on the beta, and you can read his reflections on the new Kaleidescape Store.
Want to see it in action? Here's a video from Kaleidescape that'll get you started:
This method is better than others out there (iTunes). However, it doesn't address long term "ownership" (if that is even possible these days).
What I mean by this, is let's say I'm a 20 something, and I start to accumulate purchases with this system. What happens 10, 15, 20 years later, when Kaleidescape is no longer in business, and no longer supporting the hardware? My thousands of dollars in purchased movie viewing rights, has now been stripped from me.
Can I sue Kaleidescape? No, as they are out of business. Can I sue the movie studios? Good luck with that.
I'm sorry, but purchasing of media licenses, and the rights of those purchasers needs to be addressed.
I will stick with purchasing Blu Rays and CDs until I no longer can. Then I will probably just stop purchasing.

As an elementary teacher for 34 years, I have struggled with a lack of quality materials that provide the necessary practice for concept mastery. It has been my experience that many textbooks and commercially produced materials do not provide the depth of practice and repetition required for student mastery. I have been writing most of my own supplemental materials for years, striving to meet the needs of students who need more than one or two exposures to a concept in order to achieve mastery. My many years in the classroom have provided me opportunities to work with changing curriculum standards and increasing demands for student performance. I have worked with second and third graders throughout my career and have a very solid understanding of the learning process and the needs of young students.
My teaching style is my own. I do not know a label that would be fitting. I believe in supporting learners, while not doing for them anything that they can do for themselves. I use a lot of scaffolding-i.e.,explicit teaching, followed by a lot of guided practice, then a lot of independent practice. I believe that time on task is crucial to mastery. I strive to create a learning atmosphere is warm and friendly, but at the same time businesslike, and "no-nonsense." I believe that the most effective way to build students' self-esteem, is to help them master the skills and concepts they need to be successful.

Way too narrow

Comments about Women's Geneva Suede Slippers:
this slipper seems like the perfect one I was looking for...too bad it was so narrow and small. I wear a 7 - 7 1/2 and bought an 8. still too small

Excellent slipper!
By D.D.

Very comfortable and warm! I wear them in the house all day! Within a few hours, they loosened up to fit perfectly!
Very pleased and great fit
By Active grandmother

About Me Conservative
These slippers fit perfectly and are warm and comfortable. I wanted a slipper that I could slip my foot into without having reach down to pull it on, and this style does just that. Thanks Woolrich for a fine product and excellent service.
Warm and Comfortable
By Laura
from Michigan
These are very warm and comfortable slippers for around the house or to step outside to grab the newspaper or take out the trash. They fit my narrow foot well. Most comfortable with a lightweight sock, or the lining causes my feet to perspire.
Love these!
By Carolj7515
from Presque Isle, WI
The slippers seemed small at first, but once you worked your foot in, the slipper molded to your foot and cradled it. It gets a little wider the longer you wear them. I love them and I'm thinking of getting another pair.
Fit like a glove
By Tauna
from Watkinsville, GA
These seemed a little tight when I first put them on, but they quickly stretched just enough to fit my feet nicely with socks.The little lip in the back does a good job of keeping your foot in the slipper without making it too hard to get them off and on.
Comfy Slippers
By Linz
from Saugerties, NY
I purchased these slippers for my mom who wears the same size shoes as me. When I tried them on, I thought they felt a little small. We usually wear an eight and a half, and I bought the nine, but it still felt a little snug. However, my feet are a little wider than my mom's, so she loved the way they fit a little tighter. Slippers usually slide off of her feet, so these were actually just right! She is always complaining about her feet being cold, and she told me these slippers keep her feet toasty warm. So if you have narrow feet that are always cold, I would definitely recommend these slippers!

nice slippers
By susanhupgh
from Pittsburgh, PA
Had to return them, they were way too small. Wish I knew before ordering and spending almost $20 for shipping for my order only to return both items because of size
Really nice but very small
By Eszti
from CT
See all my reviews
These are very nice slippers, but as all the reviews said they run really small. I normally wear a size 5 shoe, so I ordered the 6 and it worked out perfectly for me. They also feel very narrow, but I think they will stretch out with wear.
Love these slippers!
By ancy
from Torrington, CT
I love these slippers and wear them all the time when I am at home, The toe box is actually shaped the way your toes naturally lay, so there is no pinching, just comfort. I wear them around the house with socks or without. I asked my husband to get me these for my birthday, so I picken them out, even though they were a gift. Daniel Green has always made good slippers, and because these have a hard rubber sole, there is no problem running out to get the mail we these on.
I love my slippers.

fabulous slippers, order 1/2 size UP!
By totallyoutofhand
from easton, ct
These are my second pair and they absolutely run 1/2 size too small. I am a 7.5 and I just fit in the 8. My daughter is an 8 and I got her a 9. You will not be able to get your foot in these unless you order them 1/2 size larger than what you normally wear. Durable! I wear these inside and outside ALL fall and winter. WARM. soft sole. These do not wear out. excellent slipper!
Beauty and Comfort
By Mike
from Winterset, Iowa
My wife was concerned at first that despite buying a full size larger than her typical shoe size they were still going to be too tight. However the sole quickly began to mold to her foot and they became perfectly comfortable. They are extremely warm so they are perfect if your home is cool and you are not being extremely active. If this is not the case, then you might have to switch to something a bit lighter. She loves the look and feel of these slippers, so what more can you ask for?
Very Warm
By Harley Guy
from Doylestown, OH
I bought these for my wife because her feet are always cold. She loves them and at times has to take them off because they get too warm. Only problem is the insert in the bottom of the slipper shifts and seems to bunch up in the toe area.
These slippers are awesome!
By One who loves her woolrich slippers
from Iraan, Texas
I love my new slippers! I bought a pair 7 years ago and I wouldn't buy me a new pair because i loved my old ones so much. They looked worn and everyone commented that i needed a new pair. So i got online and found your website. I took a chance and bought another pair and i'm so happy I did. What a great product and worth the money!
I would buy this item again
By Sue
from Kalamazoo, MI
I wear these slippers a lot during the day when I am home. They are comfortable and warm, and offer a lot of support.
I LOVE LOVE these slippers
I got these last year and oh my gosh from the moment I put my foot in they were SO comfortable. I wear these all around the house and sometimes outside and in the car. The soles are totally sturdy enough for outdoor use. Warm, soft, comfortable and the price is right! Love them SO much, I ordered a pair for my daughter and a larger pair for my dad ( I ordered the ladies same exact slipper- he wont be able to tell because they are not too girly) get these slippers! These are definitely running a half size smaller, I wear a 7.5 so I ordered them in 8 and they fit perfectly.
Nice quality but not for me
By MJ
from SD
I ordered a half size up and they were still too small and rather narrow. They didn't have the support I expected with the rubber sole nor were they lined as expected either. They are nice slippers but just not for me so I returned them.
Wonderful Slippers
By Slipper hunter
from Philadelphia area. PA
I have been looking for replacement slippers for a long time. These are wonderful. They have arch support, are very comfortable, look nice and even come in widths. Since I have a very narrow foot, having a narrow width is great. I have tried many other slippers and none have come close to these.
Comfortable and cozy
By Griff
from Kirksville, MO
I like these slippers a lot and have been wearing them at home since they arrived. They are a tiny bit big, wish I had ordered my true size instead of going up.
I love these slippers!
By aawillis1956

Delivery was fast. The price is great!
By disappointed

Ordered my usual size but had to return them because they were too small. Exchanged them for next size up but they were too long and still too tight.

old favorite
By Kristy
from Virginia
After about three days these became an old favorite pair of slippers. I wear a 7 1/2, ordered the size 8 and they were snug which concerned me at first. After about three days they loosened up. I can wear socks with them or not. These are a necessity in our old hours with wood floors. I catch myself wearing them outside to the compost bin but i don't want to make that a habit because I want them to last forever.

Great slippers!
By Difficult to please

I listened to another reviewer and ordered up one full size - good move. I did a lot of research on slippers and these are by far the best offering in the price range.
Quality & comfortable houseslippers.

Perfect for me....I have narrow feet & most slippers are too wide/loose. Nice arch support & sole cushion. I went up a half size.

Excellent Slipper
By Panic in Detroit
from Detroit, MI
I normally wear a size 5.5, have high arches and have suffered from plantar fasciitis. My husband ordered the size 6 for me for Christmas and I have been wearing them every chance I get.They were a little tight on day 1 but have loosened up. I am now able to wear them with the super comfy and slightly thick aloe socks I also got (and also recommend).I LOVE the amount of cushion, which also provides some arch support.

Mephisto Women's Nazli Dark Brown Boa Leather - Mephisto shoes may be known for casual wear, but now there is a great Mephisto option for dressy events. The Mephisto Dark Brown Boa Leather Nazli is perfect for a night out on the town. This strappy wedge heel is adorned with sparkly embellishments for a little extra pizzazz. A glossy boa print lends another level of style to the wedge's prominent T-strap. Another strap is included right over the ankle. This ankle strap includes a buckle, making adjustment quick and easy. The Nazli might be appropriate for a hot date or girl's night out, but that doesn't mean the feet must be doomed to extreme discomfort. The contoured footbed is made of cork and latex for a natural fit. It is then covered in leather so that all moisture is wicked away. This in turn prevents the foot from slipping around while walking or dancing. The rubber outsole is highly durable and built to absorb shock. Its 2 1/2 inch heel features a special traction pattern to prevent slipping. These features make the Mephisto Nazli a fashionable and functional option for enjoying the local nightlife.

By sponsoring fashion events and designers like Hilgart, these groups get a chance to share their mission with buyers, fashion editors and industry insiders, key influencers of consumer trends.
"It's a great audience for us to get our message in front of," said Michelle McDonald, outreach manager of the Humane Society's fur-free campaign, which sponsored Jay McCarroll's runway show in 2006 and Charlotte Ronson in 2008.
The Humane Society tracks progress through a growing list of designers and companies that have adopted fur-free policies. But Hilgart has taken the commitment to "cruelty-free" fashion a step further with Vaute, McDonald said.
"She's not only trying to do her part for fur-bearing animals but for animals all over," McDonald said. "We're very thankful she's out there and attracting so much attention from the fashion industry."
The genesis of the company came from Hilgart's own desire for a stylish winter coat that wasn't "accidentally vegan" because it used substitutes for wool, fur or leather to drive down costs. She was a DePaul MBA candidate on break working as a Ford fashion model in Hong Kong when she decided that entrepreneurship was the best way for her to make a difference.
"I realized that if I could create a business where the process in itself was actually creating positive change, that would be my activism," she said in a phone interview last week from a noisy New York coffee shop in between final preparations for her show.
"I started with outerwear because I found being cold was an excuse to wear animal products," she said. "I wanted to figure out where I would be needed to make a contribution to the movement so people would no longer need to use products and materials made from animals."
Whether consumers are ready to give up fur, leather and wool is another story, even if it's in favor of equally stylish and warm alternatives. Hilgart knows there is a market for animal-free fashion among people like her, vegan or not, who take conscious consumerism to an active level.
Many of those people attended Wednesday's show and were thrilled by what they saw, regarding the Sailor Moon-inspired collection as a validation of their beliefs.
"Compared to even just a couple of years ago, there are now so many cruelty-free alternatives to products that we used to think required the bloodshed of animals -- everything from shoes to cosmetics to luxury fabrics," Jasmin Singer, executive director of Our Hen House, a nonprofit animal advocacy organization in New York, said after the show.

Lapis lazuli has been used for more than 6,000 years for jewelry and ornamental objects. Its name is from "lapis," the Latin word for stone, and "azul," the Arabic word for blue. Its unique deep (lazur) blue color has never lost its attraction. It places lapis lazuli next to its fabulous sky-blue cousin turquoise. An affordable stone for its carat weight, it is popular as a cabochon for rings and bracelets and an all-time classic stone with a silver setting. Lapis lazuli is fairly soft, (5-6 on the Mohs scale) and sensitive to strong pressure, high temperatures and household chemicals. For cultures around the world and through history, lapis lazuli has been a stone of truth and friendship. The blue stone is reputed to promote harmony in relationships. |

forside BSc International Business
Aarhus University, Herning
Denmark, Herning |
If you are not a citizen of Denmark, please choose the right country at the top of the page.
Course overview
The BSc in International Business(HAim) is an international bachelor programme. Its primary goal is to give the student a generalist approach to identifying, understanding, analyzing, and solving problems within international businesses. The study programme is taught entirely in English with a fully integrated and internationalised curriculum.
Business subjects include managerial economics, marketing, management accounting, financial management, organization, finance and investment. In addition to the business subjects there are also courses in: mathematics, statistics, methodology, informatics, business law and bookkeeping.
While the academic quality of the HAim programme is crucial, it is not sufficient in itself. It is of equal importance that students acquire personal skills such as the ability to communicate, debate, socialize, show flexibility and self-discipline, work together, and act holistically. The programme atmosphere is intensive and each student should contribute to her/his own learning as well as to the learning of fellow students.

I never complained about Treo's lapses. I just think the iPhone is a better device. My main focus isn't necessarily the phone functionality, but also in an easy-to-use music player, camera, photo browser, etc.
But, I was, as you now, referring to WiFi. No matter what you say, it is nowhere as available as my 3G is. If you are not willing to pay for 3G anyway, then talking about high speed service makes no sense at all. For those of us who are willing to pay, which is just about all of us who want data services, 3G trumps WiFi right now no matter what light you put on it.
I would gladly sign up for a monthly service with reasonable data fees based on how much I use the phone if I could (the key word there is having a choice based on my usage). Unfortunately, no one has such a service here in Canada.

Introducing Our New BioLogos Commercials
We're pleased to introduce the first official commercials for BioLogos, produced by Ryan Pettey of Satellite Pictures and featuring BioLogos vice president Jeff Schloss, philosopher Alister McGrath, and theologian NT Wright.
Infographic: "In the Pipeline" for Our Evolution & Christian Faith Grant Program
Last month, we announced the 37 grantees from our Evolution & Christian Faith program! This month, we take a closer look at the projects and what's "in the pipeline" over the coming years from these grantees!
Evolution and Christian Faith Grantees Announced
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.
Dissonance and Harmony
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.
New Leadership for The BioLogos Foundation
With great pleasure, the Board of Directors of The BioLogos Foundation announces the appointment of Deborah Haarsma to become our next President, and of Jeffrey Schloss to the role of Senior Scholar. Professor Haarsma assumes leadership from our outgoing President Darrel Falk, to whom we owe a tremendous debt of gratitude.
Series: Harmonizing Science, Ethics, and Praxis
In this three-part series, Cal DeWitt offers insights and examples of why science and ethics must work together to help us make informed, practical decisions within our society. DeWitt's science-ethics-praxis model provides a framework by which we can live more effectively as God's stewards.
Series: To Serve and Preserve—Genesis 2 and the Human Calling
In this series, David Buller pays careful attention to the original language and cultural context of Genesis 2, revealing that our responsibility to care for creation is a sacred task given to us by God, not merely a modern secular activity. By taking Scripture seriously, we learn that we have a God-given mandate to be diligent stewards of His creation.
Southern Baptist Voices: And in Conclusion . . .
My goal in leading this organization for these past three and a half years has been to lay the groundwork to help my fellow evangelicals see that the conflict between our faith and mainstream science is not as great as they thought it was. In the process, my thinking has been significantly shaped by listening to people who think differently than I do
Introducing the BioLogos Navigator
Part of BioLogos mission is to show how all things hold together in Christ—to show how a Christian worldview integrates the knowledge we have of God through the Scriptures with the knowledge we have of God through the other areas in which He reveals himself as Creator and Redeemer.
Series: Science and the Bible: Intelligent Design
In this series, Ted Davis identifies the history, core tenets and assumptions about the Intelligent Design view.
Confronting Our Fears, Part 2: Losing Biblical Authority
Throughout my various conversations with fellow believers, the most-mentioned anxiety over accepting an evolutionary creationist paradigm is the fear of losing the Bible as one's spiritual anchor and source of authority.
Katharine Hayhoe: Evangelical Christian, Climate Scientist
As an Evangelical and a scientist, Katharine Hayhoe is already a member of a rare breed. As a climate change researcher who is also married to an evangelical Christian pastor, she is nearly one of a kind.
Introducing The Resource Finder
How do we give our visitors access to our vast archive of resources, and how do we make sure they are finding the resources that address their most pressing questions?
Growing in Faith
As he endeavored to learn more, David was intrigued by Francis Collins book The Language of God because Francis did not present evolution as a rival theory to Christian faith, but as something that described God's method of creation.
Conversations in Creation
Since the BioLogos/Highway Media collaboration From the Dust made its worldwide debut this year, we've been excited to hear how others have been using the film to jump start their own conversations with fellow Christians about science and faith .
Using Film to Catalyze Conversations on Faith and Science
What are the best ways to spark productive conversations about science and faith? Certainly there are books, articles, blogs (like this one), and podcasts. But there are particular advantages to using film.
Series: Science and the Bible: Theistic Evolution
In this series, Ted Davis identifies the history, core tenets and assumptions about the theistic evolution view.
Series: Southern Baptist Voices: Evolution and Death
This exchange brings together related essays on death in light of evolution and Scripture from Southern Baptist theologian Dr. John Laing. Laing argues that evolutionary theory requires death to play a central role in the creation of new life, but sees Scripture depicting death only "as an invader, disturber of peace, and a force of evil." A BioLogos response is given by Dr. Jeff Schloss.
Series: Asa Gray and Charles Darwin Discuss Evolution and Design
Many Christians believe that they face a painful choice-- either life was designed by God or it is an evolutionary product of natural selection. Charles Darwin himself believed in this dichotomy, and people ever since have felt the need to "choose sides". However, looking back at history, we find that one of Darwin's chief scientific colleagues, Asa Gray, did not share this perspective. In this three-part essay, part 1 charts the relationship of Asa Gray and Charles Darwin. Part 2 describes Darwin's struggle with the problem of natural evil and design in nature, and part 3 explores how Asa Gray was able to embrace evolution without rejecting the idea of design.
Gracious Dialogue
Our desire to engage in gracious dialogue with fellow believers who reject biological evolution has been receiving increased attention in both the Christian and secular press. More importantly, we are being joined in this reconciling project by our brothers and sisters in Christ who have often been defined primarily as our "opponents".

The link between wine and the market, the broker négociant holds a valuable role in the Beaujolais winemaking region. In yesteryear accompanied by his faithful "taste-vin", a specially embossed drinking cup, that has today been replaced by a glass, he selects the cuvées that suit his needs, assembles and sells them. Dynamic and competent, these wine houses have furthered the promotion of Beaujolais wines both at home and outside France.
Today there are around a hundred of them. Famed for his "nose" the talent of the broker négociant lies in the original combinations he brings out, drawing on the specific characteristics of Beaujolais terroirs and a demand for quality from the winemakers who supply him. This exceptional know-how is more and more frequently leading the broker négociant to produce his own wines.
