All over 50s should be taking statins to avoid heart attack
London, May 17 (ANI): Everyone over the age of 50 should be given statins because the cholesterol-lowering drugs can reduce the chances of a heart attack or stroke even in healthy people, say experts.
A research by scientists at Oxford University has found the risk of a heart attack or stroke is cut by a fifth in those who have no sign of heart disease.
Treatment guidelines should be reviewed in light of the findings, the experts said, and the NHS should impose a blanket policy of prescribing up to 20 million people statins at a potential cost of 240million pounds a year, the Telegraph reported.
Currently, the only people considered at high risk, those with a one-in-five chance of having a heart attack in the next 10 years, are given the drugs.
Half of men aged 50 or over and almost a third of women qualify for statin treatment. About five million people are thought to take them.ational guidelines should be amended to lower the threshold for treatment to those with a one-in-10 risk over a decade, the experts said.
As the majority of people in their fifties would qualify for statins under this criteria, it would be cheaper and easier to implement a blanket policy to save money on screening tests - which cost up to 700 pounds per patient - to identify them, it was argued.
The cost of statins, 1 pound for a month's course, would also be offset by the savings they would bring to the NHS in preventing costly operations, medical procedures, rehabilitation and by freeing ward space and places in care homes. A total of 1.3 billion pounds is spent annually on cardiovascular drugs alone.
The proposed statins programme would be controversial, as many believe it is unnecessary to medicate otherwise healthy people, and it is not clear how many would take the tablets if they were not experiencing symptoms.
"If we want to prevent heart attacks and strokes that come out of the blue in people with no previous evidence of problems - and about half of such events happen in the absence of any prior history of disease - then we have to identify and treat people who are currently healthy but are known to be at increased risk of developing heart disease. Such treatment should, of course, be in addition to obvious things like encouraging better diet, more exercise and avoidance of cigarette smoking," said Prof Colin Baigent, co-author of the study.
A National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence spokesman said the study findings will be included in the ongoing review of the clinical guidelines on cardiovascular risk assessment and treatment.
The study analysed data from 175,000 people in 27 random trials, which compared people on statins with those on a dummy pill.
Researchers found that for every one-point reduction in levels of bad cholesterol in the blood, there was a 21 per cent reduction in the risk of serious events, including heart attacks, strokes or surgery for blocked arteries among those with no symptoms of heart disease.
The risk of dying from a heart attack or stroke among those at lowest risk was cut by 15 per cent.
For every 1,000 people in the low-risk group treated with statins for five years there would be 11 fewer major heart attacks or strokes.
"A benefit that greatly exceeds any known hazards of statin therapy," the researchers wrote.
Side effects of statins can include muscle aches, stomach disturbances, and altered iver function. Patients have also reported sleep and memory problems, depression and headaches.
There was no evidence of a rise in deaths from cancer, the researchers said, and although there was a small increased risk of a "bleeding stroke" (a burst blood vessel in the brain) and more people were diagnosed with diabetes in the statin group, these were outweighed by the benefits of the treatment.
The findings were published online in The Lancet. (ANI)

I am a 55 year old woman with a total cholesterol of 128. My LDL is 60, HDL 70 and Triglycerides 54. I have no heart attack risk factors. I have no need for statins of any kind. The side effects and risks are not worth it!

May 28 (Bloomberg) — Matt Simmons, founder and chairman emeritus of Simmons & Co., talks with Bloomberg's Mark Crumpton and Lori Rothman about BP Plc's leaking oil well in the Gulf of Mexico.
BP said in a statement today that it has spent $930 million responding to the spill, which began after an April 20 rig explosion that killed 11 workers.
The well has been spewing an estimated 12,000 to 19,000 barrels of oil a day into the Gulf, a U.S. government panel said yesterday.

- Gulf of Mexico Oil Apocalypse Creates Underwater Nightmare
- Gulf of Mexico clean-up boats recalled after crews suffer health problems
- SPECIAL REPORT: Civil fine in Gulf spill could be $4,300 a barrel

- Fishermen get severly ill from clean-up work in Gulf
- NASA Images Show Oil Entering Loop Current
- New NASA Image of Gulf Oil Moving Towards Atlantic Ocean
- Worry That Gulf Oil Spreading Into Major Ocean Current
- AP IMPACT: Fed'l Inspections on Rig Not as Claimed:
The federal agency responsible for ensuring that an oil rig in the Gulf of Mexico was operating safely before it exploded last month fell well short of its own policy that inspections be done at least once per month, an Associated Press investigation shows.
Since January 2005, the federal Minerals Management Service conducted at least 16 fewer inspections aboard the Deepwater Horizon than it should have under the policy, a dramatic fall from the frequency of prior years, according to the agency's records.
Scientists studying video of the gushing oil well have tentatively calculated that it could be flowing at a rate of 25,000 to 80,000 barrels of oil a day. The latter figure would be 3.4 million gallons a day.
- Beyond Stupid: BP CEO Tony Hayward:
"The Gulf of Mexico is a very big ocean. The amount of volume of oil and dispersant we are putting into it is tiny in relation to the total water volume."
- US Oil Spill: Scientists and Fishermen Alarmed Over Chemical Dispersants:
Approximately 325,000 gallons of dispersant have been deployed so far in BP's effort to break up the spreading oil slick before it hits the fragile Gulf coast, and over 500,000 gallons more are available.

Helen Zelkowitz
MOUNT VERNON — Helen (Weiner) Zelkowitz, 95, of Mount
Vernon passed away on Friday, Dec. 15, 2006.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Sarah and Samuel Weiner; husband, Charles; son, Stephen; sisters, Tilly Ziskind, Ruth Kanter and Eleanore Yenkin; brothers, Abe, Bernard, Carl and Elliott Weiner.
She is survived by her daughter-in-law, Donna Zelkowitz, granddaughter, Juliet (Luke) McCarthy III, great-granddaughter, Helen McCarthy, all of Las Vegas, Nev.; grandson, Jonathan Zelkowitz of California. She is also survived by her devoted nieces and nephews, Bernard Yenkin, Bernard Kanter, Sam Weiner, Leah Salis, Susan Portman, Sharon Keiffer, Sandra Levine and Linda Yenkin; and many cousins and friends.
Helen was not only a pioneer for women as professionals in the communications industry, but more importantly an exemplar of dedication to community and others. She will be greatly missed. In 1951, she helped launch the local FM station and two years later the AM station, and in 1970, Mount Vernon Cablevision. In 1956, she was a charter member of the Columbus Buckeye Chapter of the American Women in Radio and Television where she served as a life member and former board member. In 1979, she was honored by the Ohio Broadcasters Association as the first Woman Broadcaster of the Year. She was among the first inducted into the Ohio Women's Hall of Fame when it was established in 1978, and in May 1992, was named to the Senior Citizen's Hall of Fame.
In 1956, Mrs. Zelkowitz was a charter member and first president of the local Soroptimist International. She was the first woman to serve as the Campaign Chairman for the United Way of Knox County and later was the organization's chairman of the board. She had also been the board chair of the Knox County Chapter of the American Red Cross. She had been a dedicated supporter of Kenyon College, including its Hillel organization. Just this past April, Kenyon bestowed upon Helen an honorary Ph.D. She was a life member of Hadassah and a Ruby Lion of Judah of the United Jewish Federation. Her grandfather, Kalman London, was the first rabbi at Agudas Achim Synagogue in Columbus and she was a life member of the synagogue's sisterhood. She was also a member of the Columbus Jewish Historical Society, World Jewish Congress, B'nai Brith, and ORT.
Taking food baskets to the poor with her mother and sisters was routine, setting the example for her own philanthropic lifestyle. To Helen, giving was a privilege. Among the many beneficiaries are: Israel Red Cross, Columbus Jewish Foundation, Columbus Jewish Federation, American Red Cross (Mount Vernon), Kenyon College Hillel, OSU Hillel Foundation, Knox County United Way, Mount Vernon Community Trust, Mount Vernon Food for the Hungry drive, Jewish Family Services, Jewish Community Center, Knox Community Hospital, Agudas Achim Synagogue, Columbus Torah Academy, Columbus Jewish Day School, Jewish Community Center of Greater Columbus, Hadassah, Mount Vernon YMCA, Mount Vernon Development Center, Wexner Heritage Village, Schottenstein Chabad House, Shalom House, Simon Wiesenthal Center, and the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Center, as well as many charities in Israel.
Funeral service will be today at 3 p.m. at The Epstein Memorial Chapel, 3232 E. Main St., Columbus. Prior to the funeral, the family will received friends this morning at Flowers-Snyder Funeral Home, 619 E. High St., Mount Vernon. Shiva will be observed at the residence of Bernard and Susie Kanter.
In lieu of flowers, memorials are preferred to the Charles, Helen and Stephen Zelkowitz Foundation, 1175 College Ave., Columbus, OH 43209; Agudas Achim Synagogue, 2767 E.

Keep-On Bib
This is GREAT for BABY SHOWERS and for kids and all ages to make for a new baby!
-1 curly spring shoe lace
-1 washcloth (on hand; terry cloth or crochet)
NOTE: may use a circle, square, or other shape of a piece of hemmed fabric as the bib- perhaps even a nice waterproof-material backed fabric!
1.) Gather materials: washcloth (on hand usually) and a curly springy shoe lace (2 for about $2 from PayLess Shoe Store). {For the bib pictured with this project, I used a thick crochetted washcloth because there are holes within the looping that made it VERY EASY to assemble the springy shoe lace through.}
2.) If using a common terry (TOWEL) WASH CLOTH, use scissors to make a small cut (about 1/4 inch) in the corners, leaving about 1/2 inch from the top and sides between the cut and the edges. If using a CROCHET WASH CLOTH, simply poke one of the shoe lace ends through the corner-most hole (or one or two loops inward if you'd rather). Tie in a knot once to secure this end.
3.) ALL DONE! When using, simply poke the loose end into the crochet corner symmetrical to the other secure corner/end. OR go ahead and assemble the bib NOW because it's an EASY-ON bib because it stretches. The bibs I made with the stretch shoe lace chord are NOT TIGHT. ALSO, the soft springy-ness of the shoe lace keeps the bib on the child/baby, and comfortably so!
ADDITIONAL & OPTIONAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR DECORATING YOUR BIB(S): The bib pictured has an original hand-cut applique made from white cotton fabric. I cut out a baby's fork and spoon out of cotton, then followed the instructions on no-sew iron-on adhesive ("Heat n Bond ULTRA HOLD." Alternately or in addition, sew/hot glue buttons, a food-catching wide pocket along the botton edge of the bib, or sew/hot glue lace/rick rack/other ribbon trim, ETC!! Have FUN!! GOD BLESS ALL!!!!!!!!

Sales Clinic: Recipes for Success (and Disaster)
From the paper and ink or toner to the smile of your delivery driver, print customers want consistency. Give them service and products they can count on and they will stick with you for the long term.
I'm a big Tony Bourdain fan. He's the host of the TV show No Reservations which runs on The Travel Channel. In every episode, Tony and his crew travel to a city or region and give viewers an insider's look at the culture – specifically the food culture – because Tony made his bones as a chef in New York City. Brasserie Les Halles, where he last ran a kitchen before becoming a full-time entertainer, is a regular stop for me when I'm up there, and for my money, the best food value in New York can be found at Les Halles, where you can get Steak, Frites, Salade – grilled hanger steak, a large serving of incredible fried potatoes, and a small salad – for only $19.50.
Recipes for Success
OK, that's all very interesting, but what does it have to do with printing and sales? Simply this, when Tony was a working chef, he was in the consistency business. In other words, it's not enough to serve a great meal, you have to serve lots of great meals. Consistency – of quality and service – is as important in the restaurant business as it is in the printing business, and maybe even more so, because printing customers don't always see quality or service failures as life or death situations. In a restaurant, a quality failure can literally kill someone. (OK, it's true that only a very small percentage of food poisoning victims actually die from it, but if you've ever had a serious case, you probably remember thinking you were going to!)
The key to consistent quality in the restaurant business has two parts. The first is to use quality ingredients. The second is to prepare them the same way every time – in other words, to follow the recipe! Yes, there is a trial-and-error stage in the development of a dish, but once the recipe is finalized, quality comes from consistency in preparation.
So is printing any different? I tried this idea out on one of my coaching clients, and he felt that "quality ingredients" would be less of an issue in printing than in food preparation. "Paper is paper," he said, "and ink is ink and toner is toner."
But think back on some of the quality failures you've experienced. Haven't there been times when the paper or the ink or the toner was the problem? In the kitchen, there's plenty of opportunity to inspect the raw materials, right up to the moment they go into the preparation of the dish. Just yesterday morning I cracked an egg in my own kitchen that looked fine on the outside, but quickly identified itself as spoiled. Fortunately, I was well schooled back in my own restaurant days: Crack the shell. Hold it upright. Inspect the egg. And then, if you are satisfied with its quality, add it to the dish.
You don't necessarily get the same opportunity with paper, ink, and toner – especially if we're talking about a sealed ink or toner cartridge – but if you don't see a defect on the front end, you do have the opportunity to see its effect on the back end. Moral: If a meal's not right, don't serve it! (If a job's not right, don't deliver it!)
Start to Finish
Quality comes from consistency in preparation – from start to finish! That raises a question. Where does a print job start? I think the answer is that it starts at the point where the specifications of the job are being transmitted from the buyer to the seller. That could be limited to the technical specifications (stock, color, quantity, finished size, etc.) or it could also include the applications specifications (the purpose or objective of the printed piece). Either way, it's critically important that those specifications are accurately communicated. I have found that the vast majority of quality or services failures originate at this point, which means that unless someone picks up on a problem and corrects a miscommunication before the ink or the toner goes on the paper, the job is doomed right from the start.

WASHINGTON — As the vacationing President Barack Obama approaches his second term, he'll have to confront tough and shifting challenges that will play big roles in shaping the rest of his presidency and his eventual place in history.
Obama will have to decide where to be ambitious, where to be cautious, and where to buy time.
He draws political strength from his surprisingly easy re-election in a bad economy. It's partly offset, however, by Republicans' continued control of the House, plus their filibuster powers in the Senate.
Some of the issues awaiting the president's decisions are familiar, long-simmering problems. They include immigration and the need for a tenable balance between taxes, spending and borrowing. Avoiding the fiscal cliff tops his to-do list when he returns from his brief Christmas holiday in Hawaii.

A grape variety traditional to the Maremma, vermentino achieves ideal ripeness in these hills, thanks to the nearby Mediterranean, which tempers the hot weather, particularly in the autumn. A small amount of sauvignon blanc confers on the wine increased aromatic complexity and a sturdier structure, and the result is an appealing, easy-drinking white.
Straw yellow in appearance, the wine releases refreshing hints of grapefruit, spring blossoms, and fresh-mown hay, while the crisp palate tantalises with delicate citrus in the background.
"Delivers green melon and lemon on the nose and palate, with hints of cream. Full-bodied, featuring lovely fruit that turns to mango and papaya. Flavorful. Reminiscent of a minerally Condrieu. Drink now. 5,000 cases made."

Playlist (4/100) Beach House "Myth"
Found yourself in a new direction
Aeons far from the sun
Can you come?
Would they come to breach you?
Let you know you're not the only one
Help me to make it.
Found yourself in a new direction
Aeons far from the sun
Can you come?
Would they come to breach you?
Let you know you're not the only one
Help me to make it.
My sister has been introducing me to so much great music lately. This is another song by a Danish band (represent holla whuttup) that is definitely worthy of a listen. Treefight For Sunlight's "Facing the Sun" was named the number one summer hit in Denmark last year, and it has that warm and summery retro feel that I am so into. Also, they have named The Beach Boys as one of their inspirations, which is definitely evident in this song.
Tell me this song doesn't just make you squeal with happiness.
Alright, I know this song is from 2009, but it is so happiness-inducing and catchy that I am willing to look past the newness-factor and put it on the list.
Now, everybody sing along:
Kids wanna BOP out in the street, fu-fu-fun all summer long,
Kids wanna BOP out in the street, fu-fu-fun all summer looooooong.
Bonus fact just for you: They are Danish. HUZZAH.
The first track on my ultimately awesome playlist is this classic from 1978. We have all heard it, and most of us had no idea what she was singing until we read the lyrics and then it all made sense. We knew it was something with "Heathcliff" and "Wuthering Heights" should be mentioned somewhere in there, but where and when was slightly unclear. We just knew we were hearing something beautiful.
Kate Bush was the first woman to have a self-penned number 1 song on the charts. You go, Kate Bush, you go. Here is "Wuthering Heights".
Introducing… Sofie's fantastically amazing Retro Playlist. Intrigued? You know you should be. This mix-tape is bound to give you a real swingin' good time.
Alright, I am a pretty terrible salesperson.
The point of this playlist is pretty simple; I love retro music and retro-sounding music, and am constantly discovering new tunes that excites me so much that I have to share them with someone. I am of the firm believe that I can't be the only person to feel like they should have been born in another decade, music-wise, and us oldies-but-goodies nerds need to stick together!
I will post a song when I find one and I would love to hear about songs in exchange. I will write an entry soon explaining when and how I feel in love with the good ol' classics.

Eat'n Park's animated Christmas Star ad celebrates 30 years
The complaints about holiday commercials coming too early this year probably started sometime in October, when discount retailer Target boldly began running a festive TV spot with the script, "The holidays are coming. And they're going to be big."
Over the next several weeks, viewers aren't likely to stop the critiques. Sharing opinions on holiday ads is an all-in spectator sport for Americans, some of whom have created Facebook pages with names such as, "The lady from the Target Christmas commercials," (497 likes); "I'm already tired of Christmas commercials!" (48 likes); and "Those weird Christmas Radio Shack commercials" (74 likes).
In 2011, the sheer number of holiday ads grew 30 percent over the previous year, according to Ace Metrix, an ad tracking firm in Mountain View, Calif.
Both the intense scrutiny and the competition are among the reasons the marketing staff at Eat'n Park, the restaurant chain based in Homestead, reconsiders every year whether or not to bring back the company's now 30-year-old "Christmas Star" commercial.
The ad made in 1982 doesn't even look particularly modern anymore, noted Jeff Broadhurst, president and CEO of Eat'n Park Hospitality Group.
There's an old-fashioned feel to the animation and to the story of the star that can't reach the top of the branches until the tree leans over to help out.
But the tale is heart-warming, and many Pittsburghers -- a generation of whom grew up seeing the spot every holiday -- love it.
Eat'n Park starts running the spot on TV in late November each year, said Mr. Broadhurst, and then the emails start coming in from people who say it marks one of the official launches of the season for them. He expects the spot will get 20,000 views on YouTube and Facebook this year, meaning people go online looking for it.
It would be tempting to say the commercial has a more enduring fan base than other TV ad classics produced in the 1980s such as the Folgers coffee spot with the son coming home or the Hershey kisses as bells ringing out, "We Wish you a Merry Christmas."
But those run nationally, while the Eat'n Park "Christmas Star" spot belongs to -- and in -- Western Pennsylvania, Mr. Broadhurst said. Here the vintage styling brings welcome nostalgia, where the commercial might seemed odd if it were dropped into unfamiliar territory, he said.
The commercial was crafted a few years before the chain's signature Smiley Cookie, as part of a fundraising campaign to help pay for charity care at Children's Hospital. Eat'n Park was already into holiday projects, having raised donations by making a Christmas album featuring staff from the office and the restaurants.
The idea was to make a holiday commercial. Jim Broadhurst, chairman, recalled telling the team at advertising firm Ketchum he liked the feel of the Budweiser Clydesdales spot that just shows the big horses pulling a wagon through a snowy scene with an announcer wishing customers the very best during the season.
That spot wasn't commercial in the traditional sense, the elder Mr. Broadhurst said, and that's what he wanted. "We're going to do something that's not going to promote a product," he recalled saying.
Eat'n Park does benefit from affection for the ad, in part because it reminds people that the company may be diversifying into different formats and corporate ventures but it is a hometown company that appreciates its local support, Jeff Broadhurst said.
While the spot itself may have the feel of a different time, ambitious plans crafted around the 30-year anniversary don't.
In December, the company will put QR codes on menus so smartphone users can pull up the spot. In addition, merchandise in the form of Christmas Star ornaments, T-shirts and mugs will be sold, with some of the proceeds benefiting area children's hospitals. A new SendtheStar online feature will let people email holiday wishes with a link to the spot.
And, in true Pittsburgh style, the commercial is scheduled to be re-created in laser show form as part of the Santa Spectacular at Light-Up Night Friday evening at Point State Park. That extravaganza is being developed by Lightwave International, a company based in Eighty Four that has done work on international concert tours as well as creating the Batman signal that appeared Downtown during the filming of the recent movie.
"When the Eat'n Park commercial comes on the TV and the Horne's tree goes up, those are the two starting points of Christmas," said Graham Small, operations manager of Lightwave International, whose staff is filled with people from the region. "We've grown up with the commercial."
He said this week's laser show will interpret the Christmas Star message in a modern way, but with the respect due a local icon.
Jim Broadhurst, who was there at the beginning, admitted that he's kind of shocked the commercial proved to have such staying power and he doesn't rule out a future update.
"At some point, we'll change it," he predicted. "But if we do, it will be the same kind of thing."

Bill-payment drop box now available
A temporary drop box where League City residents can pay their city utility bill is now available.
The city's permanent drop box, which is in the middle of the City Hall parking lot, was damaged Thursday night when it was struck by a vehicle. The box can no longer lock and will be replaced.
The temporary box is beside the damaged one and will be used until a permanent replacement is installed, city spokeswoman Kristi Wyatt said.
Residents are encouraged to pay their bill online with no extra fees here or by mailing it to P.O. Box 2008 League City, TX 77574, or by dropping it off inside City Hall, 300 W. Walker, during normal business hours.
Residents can also join the city's ECO-billing in which they can receive their utility bill via e-mail instead of through the mail.

Thursday 23 May 2013
By Cristina Ruiz. Web onlyPublished online: 02 October 2012
Baku, the capital of Azerbaijan, will get a display space for international and local contemporary art within two years and could host a visual arts biennale within three.
Aida Mahmudova, 30, an arts patron who is a niece of the first lady, is currently assembling a collection for the Yarat foundation and artists' collective she set up a year ago, and has purchased works by the British artist Idris Khan and the Iranian Farhad Moshiri, among others.The Yarat foundation currently has a small space, but Mahmudova says she is looking for a more suitable building with approximately 1,200 sq. m for displays in which to show the works. The new gallery will also host exhibitions of paintings, sculptures and videos by Azeri artists.While the contemporary arts scene in the post-Soviet state is still in its infancy, Mahmudova, who is herself a practicing artist and studied at Central Saint Martin's in London, says she is trying to encourage others to support local artists. "Most of the collectors here buy post-war art, contemporary art is still new. We're trying to set a trend to collect people who are younger and have a future ahead of them," she says.Launching a contemporary art biennale would galvanise the scene and help put Baku on the international art world map, says Mahmudova. "It's a big plan for the future, a very important one, so we are currently working out our strategy," she says.Yarat's other initiatives include an arts festival in Baku earlier this year, a display of Azeri contemporary art at the Moscow Biennale, and an exhibition of lots from forthcoming sales at Christie's co-organised with the auction house last month.

Many people feel that in the open source/free software community openness is about letting everyone become privy to any comment/decision/situation that may happen within a project. For the most part this is the goal we strive for but at the end of the day there are things that should remain private until they become real concerns for the public at large.
The issue is we have diverse communities that rarely agree 100% even among the best of friends. It becomes counter productive when these disagreements become the source of misinformed news articles without general consensus allowed to form within the community itself.
Forget the community for a minute. As individuals we often need to think before we speak in order to make sure we say exactly what we meant to say. The same goes for diverse groups. They must work out the directions they go in in an atmosphere that is free from the chilling effect of having to watch what they say because their intentions may be misinterpreted.
There is also the point of being able to freely express an opinion without fear of outward reprisals. There is a reason Democracy subsists on the concept of private ballots. It allows even the most unpopular opinions to at least be registered while individuals can be sure they won't be ostracized. The openness comes from being free to dispute results, protest and influence them through public action, not from knowing the individual's specific vote.
We strive to be inclusive with everyone who has a stake in what we do but when it becomes counter productive one needs to redress the situation so that we continue to move forward. It does no one any good to dwell on speculation from quarters which are ill informed and just looking for traffic grabbing sensationalism. It is perfectly fine to exclude them from discussions they have no stake in and let them feed on the results, judging the community based on its final actions and consensus.

Fans flocked to Ellis Park for another race Saturday afternoon. In between the horse races people watched camels and ostriches circle the track. Eyewitness News was there as five ostriches ran to the finish line. The winner was "I'll Hatch Another." When the race was over, two of the ostriches gave Ellis Park officials a run for their money. They did not want to go in their trailer, so they took off towards the back of the track.

By now you have struggled through the implications of Matthew 10:28, Yeshua's supposed endorsement of the "body-soul" dualism that we have been exploring for the last 4 days. Perhaps we haven't solved the riddle of the translation, but we have at least learned these few things:
1. The "body-soul" or "body-mind-soul" or "body-spirit-soul" concepts found in most Christian theology are akin to those Greek philosophical systems found in Pythagoras and Plato. They do not have readily available counterparts in Hebraic thought.
2. Hebrew has no dualistic terms that approximate the categories found in Greek philosophy. The Tanakh does not embrace, endorse or support the idea of the separation of Man into various parts.
3. Since we believe Yeshua did not embrace this Greek dualism, the text in Matthew is either a) corrupt, b) an addition by someone else, c) a mangled translation of an attempt to convey a Hebrew concept in Greek language, or d) an idiomatic expression in Hebrew that was mistranslated as a word-for-word concept into Greek.
4. We ruled out a) and b) above and determined that the most likely explanation for Matthew 10:28 is that it was spoken as a Hebrew idiom but badly translated into Greek, and subsequently forced to fit a Greek paradigm. Since the Church had already adopted a Greek metaphysics by the time our versions of the Greek text of Matthew came into existence, it would not have caused in startled suspicion to read the text as "body and soul." The culture already assumed such a dualism was biblical.
With this in mind, we suggested that the appropriate idiomatic translation might be something like this: "Do not fear those who are able to inflict terrible means of death upon the body. Rather fear the one who is capable of wasting away life." This idiomatic expression is also ironic (a common tactic employed by Yeshua) because the one who is able to waste away life is NOT God but rather you and I. In other words, Yeshua is teaching us that not fulfilling God's purposes for our lives is the equivalent of destroying life and WE ARE RESPONSIBLE.
Why is this so difficult to discern from the current Greek of Matthew 10:28 and virtually all the English translations? Because English adopts the Greek paradigm of Man, breaking the unity of the embodied person into pieces which are subsequently treated differently. To put is simply, English (and Greek) do NOT have the needed linguistic forms or ideas necessary to translate this Hebrew idiomatic expression. Much like the HEbrew concept of hesed, Greek is simply inadequate to convey the Hebrew meaning.
Try talking to someone about what it means to be human but do not use any reference to body or soul. You will see just how much our own thought patterns and language is saturated with this Greek idea. Try explaining that the biblical text does not contain the idea of an immortal, disembodied soul and you will probably be considered a heretic. Try explaining what it means to "sleep in the earth" until the Day of Judgment. All of our Christian ideas about heaven and hell, reward and punishment, eternal existence, etc. come under attack. No wonder people have such a terrible time when they try to answer the question, "What would this have meant to the audience that first heard it?"
