Although the process is lengthy, the idea of a countywide unified solid waste /recycling agreement has come yet another step closer to fruition.
The Logan County Fiscal Court, representing the unincorporated areas of the county, approved a first reading of an ordinance Tuesday, Oct. 23, to enter into an interlocal agreement with Auburn, Adairville, Lewisburg and Russellville for solid waste services (curbside trash pickup).
Adairville, Lewsburg and Russellville have all passed resolutions to enter into the agreement with the county, with Auburn bringing it to the table at the next scheduled meeting Nov. 12.
As soon as all parties agree to become one, the request has to be sent off to the state's Attorney General's Office for approval. According to county attorney Joe Ross, the Attorney General has 60 days to approve or deny the request.
"I do not foresee any problems with approving the interlocal agreement by the Attorney General's Office, but this is not a process I have been through before. I tried to write it as clearly as I could and to meet all the requirements of the statutes," said Ross.
When and if the Attorney General's Office approves the agreement, a committee will come together made up of all four mayors and the judge/executive for the purposes of setting up a bid that will be sent out for countywide garbage pickup services which will include curbside co-mingling recycling.
"The way I envisioned it would be the individuals cities going through the same process they have gone through but it would become one body," said Ross.
Each mayor and the judge/executive will be able to put in the bid agreement what would be best for the areas they represent. The committee will allow each city and the county to have their own input on what services are bid out.
The motivation behind the unified solid waste agreement is to create a more competitive rate for all the services for everyone. Another reason, maybe the more publicised one, is to offer curbside co-mingling recycling at no additional cost.
"By allowing one company to service all the cities and unincorporated areas of the county, this would open up a better rate than if bid out separately," said Ross. Currently Scott Waste Services holds contracts with the city of Russellville and then the county together with Auburn, Adairville and Lewisburg.
If Scott is awarded a future unified bid, they will have to put up money out to offer the recycling which they have agreed to do at no additional cost if they could have a commitment to be in this area for awhile. Ultimately, however, that is no guarantee, as the bid will be put out to everyone. It is presumable that Scott will get the bid.
Conservatively speaking, Ross said it could be somewhere between January and March of 2013 before the process is complete. It will be dependent upon how quick the Attorney General's Office responds to the interlocal agreement request and how long it takes for the committee to get together and construct a bid to be put out.
Scott began working with the county last year on a recycling pilot program that offered curbside co-mingling recycling to just under customers mostly in magistrate Thomas Bouldin's district. According to Bouldin the program works and the people really seem to like it. Co-mingling means you can throw all recyclables into one container and don't have to separate them out.
The pilot called for a separate 96 gallon container, called a tote, which is just like the trash containers Scott customers already use - except it has a different color lid. The pilot homes received one of these containers which hold recyclable materials like cardboard, plastics, paper products and aluminum. They are picked up once a month by Scott Waste instead of regular trash pickup.
Because of the success of the pilot program, Bouldin wanted to see it offered to everyone and one of the ways to do that and not charge any additional cost to the customer is to come together as one - the county and four cities - and bid out a longer contract.
The deal is that if Scott Waste is awarded the unified future contract they will agree to providing recycling and keep the cost the same or lower than they are now in exchange for a longer contract.

Environmental Studies Department
Overview of Program
- Environmental studies was established as a major in 2003. Four department faculty, joined by two dozen faculty from other departments, offer students a unique and innovative curriculum.
- Our curriculum is based on a core of interdisciplinary environmental studies courses that approach questions of sustainability in a variety of contexts including food, energy, gender, ecology, policy, and more.
- Students can choose from a range of environmentally-oriented courses in art, communication, ecology, economics, ethics, literature, geology, history, nutrition, politics, psychology, sociology, and other fields in addition to our core environmental studies curriculum.
- A focus on undergraduate research and experiential learning offers opportunities for summer research assistantships, internships, field experiences, and a capstone thesis project for all majors.
- The natural settings of Saint Ben's and Saint John's, including wetlands, streams, forests, lakes and praries, offer a unique environment for students to explore, conduct research, and learn about environmental education and land stewardship.
- Graduates of the environmental studies program can be found in a variety of places after graduation. Many graduates choose to volunteer or pursue further education, while many can be found in a number of unique career paths.
- Saint John's Abbey installed approximately 1800 solar panels on 3.9 acres of former farmland in the fall of 2009. At the time of installation, the solar farm was the largest in Minnesota.
- In 2005, CSB/SJU designated environmental studies as one of the first Signature Programs of the two institutions. The designation is part of a strategic planning initiative to strengthen and highlight interdisciplinary programs.

I have also tried the nipplettes and had same problem with looking strange, falling off etc. At 45, I had thought about surgery for a long time, but I have had my kids etc and gave up trying to breast feed!
SO, I recently went ahead and had the surgery overcoming my embarrassment too at both doctors and hospital. It was FINE - a little painful but after a couple of days I felt OK. NO scars. It has worked in part - certainly LOADS better, though doubt I will still ever go topless!!!
The procedure may be like having piercing as it involves cutting the duct behind but I WAS told that you could not breast feed after - hence my comment above. Hope this helps.
shamefulgirl wrote:Hi, I am a 18 year old woman and I had inverted nipples, my boyfriend is freaked out by them. He's been with alot of women and he has never seen nipples like mine before. I feel very ugly and ashamed. Can someone tell me if this is how most people feel about inverted nipples "freaked out?"
LLC wrote:I wish I had come across this forum last night.
I literally only ordered the Niplette's last night after doing a bit of reading. I know they dont work for everyone but figured I would give them a go.
I just didn't know that piercing was an option. I might have seriously considered that instead. But I will try the niplette's first and see what happens, considering I have already paid for them.
I have never had a partner who saw them as an issue, some saw it as a challenge or a bit of fun trying to tease them out.
But I thought I would attempt to correct mine before starting a new relationship. I am currently single.
I definately understand so many of the comments on here. I find my innies to be unattractive and always have. I am not looking to have kids just yet, but would like to think I can correct the problem before I do have children.
THanks for all the tips on here. It's been an interesting bit of reading.

Rarely did a day pass by without Orlando fans and sports ticker updates alerting Magic forward Glen Davis about Dwight Howard.
"He was the topic of every conversation," Davis recalled. "Will he stay or is he going to leave?"
In August, the Magic eventually sent Howard to the Lakers as part of a four-team, 12-player trade in return for former UCLA product Arron Afflalo (from Denver), Josh McRoberts and Christian Eyenga (Lakers) and a flurry of draft picks. Hearts quickly broke.
"It was like LeBron (James) leaving Cleveland," Davis said regarding Howard's departure after eight seasons in Orlando. "This is the only professional sport there."
Still, the Magic insisted they have moved on from the infamously dubbed "Dwightmare," a season-long soap opera detailing mixed messages surrounding Howard's future.
Orlando coach Jacques Vaughn reiterated to his team not to focus on Howard facing his former team Sunday for the first time since his departure. Davis said he and other teammates haven't talked to him since the trade. He insisted most Magic fans remain indifferent.
Orlando's roster features five players who teamed with Howard last season, including Davis, Jameer Nelson, J.J. Redick, Hedo Turkoglu and Ish Smith. The Howard trade also involved Orlando sending Jason Richardson to Philadelphia and Chris Duhon as well as Earl Clark to the Lakers. Vaughn replaced Stan Van Gundy after his firing. The Magic entered their game against the Lakers
"You have to have people in the locker room that want to be here," Vaughn said. "Sometimes people try to make talent overcome that. Sometimes that works.
"But for the longevity and sustainability, that doesn't work."

Books Every Graphic Designer Should Read 20 books and 12 comments
Books led me to typography and graphic design. Love of reading became love of the medium in which the words are printed, of the type that composes these words, of the substrate that supports them, of the page layouts that give form to narrative and argument, of the covers and bindings that hold these texts and pictures together, of the lettering and imagery that seek to express a book's essential nature.
Graphic design books are a kind of meta-book. These are the publications in which the art of making books (as well as other graphic media) is discussed. Any graphic designer who read only this kind of book would have a severely limited view of the world. On the other hand, any graphic designer who made a point of avoiding books about graphic design would have a highly circumscribed view of the discipline. For this reason, I have concentrated here on graphic design books and have resisted the temptation to dilute the mixture by including volumes about other aspects of art and visual culture that might also be relevant to graphic designers. To be useful, such a list would need to be three times as long.
Several of these titles are books of particular significance to me, but none has been selected only for that reason. These are contributions that form a vital part of the literature of graphic design, to be consulted wherever the subject is taught, thought about, or discussed. There are other core texts that could have been included in a longer list, and many other monographs, though the five below are all significant. My particular interest is in the history and criticism of graphic design, and I have not included books about design techniques and practice. Many of the titles here would also, I hope, be interesting to non-professional readers.

Comments about Books Every Graphic Designer Should Read
12 commentsLists are always debate - able, but it is shocking that Thoughts on Design or another book by or on Paul Rand are not on this list.
Paul Rand's books have already been mentioned several times. This website is supposed to be educational. As you said, lists are debatable, so of what help would these lists be if everyone would name the same books, more or less?
I would propose an Ellen Lupton book be added to this list.
Jessamyn, there already is an Ellen Lupton book on the list -- Design Writing Research (with her partner Abbott Miller). But I assume you are thinking of her more recent books. I've avoided books about technique, as I mentioned in my intro, but if this were such a list I'd probably go for Thinking with Type.
About Paul Rand: he's clearly a canonical figure, but there are many canonical designers not represented in my list, and he doesn't bulk quite so large for non-Americans, which I am. Over time, as Iancu suggests, Rand's name is bound to come up a lot in recommendations on this site. I preferred to concentrate on other books that have meant more to me, and/or will be less well known.
What about "More dark than shark"?
I could (and certainly would) add Pierre Fauchaux's highly original "Écrire l'éspace", an autobiographic account of his long and distinguished career published in 1977 by Robert Laffont (http://pedromarquesdg.wordpress.com/2009/06/29/ecrire-lespace-de-pierre-faucheux/)
ABSOLUTELY agree on "Design Writing Research": that is THE book that makes one like graphic design (and graphic design books).
I mean Faucheux and not Fauchaux
Hey Jessamyn, fancy meeting you here!
Great list!
My Work is Not my Work is one of my all time favorite design books. I love the authors critical point of view - it truly helps frame the work within. I read somewhere recently that writing about design is an act of design. This book truly showcases that!
Thanks for sharing your list!
Dear Rick Poynor,
I love your book list.
And I want to buy "Pictures on a page" by Harold Evans.
Online there are a lot of editions.
Wich edition do you prefer?
Thank you in advance for the reply.
Giorgio, apologies for the slow reply. I have only just seen your question.
I have this edition:
And you can buy it from Amazon UK at a very reasonable price.
But if I were buying the book now I would probably go for the later, revised edition:
Great list, and I really think you made the best call picking Heller's book on Avant Garde magazines versus his others. It is just a magnificent collection, beautiful book, and is so well researched. If anyone is a fan, you should also check out MoMA's "Russian Avant Garde Book" if you can find it. Many thanks for your insights!

Man, 45, accused of lewd incidents involving teens
Published: Saturday, February 2, 2013 at 5:26 p.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, February 2, 2013 at 5:26 p.m.
OCALA -- A 45-year-old Ocala man accused of pleasuring himself while two teen-age girls were nearby was arrested by an Ocala Police Department detective on Friday and charged with lewd and lascivious exhibition, according to officials.
The girls, ages 13 and 14, who are sisters, allege that David Allen Ray covered himself with a blanket and fondled himself under blanket while he peeped through a hole in the blanket to see if the teenagers were watching him.
The same scenario has occurred over the course of more than a year, officials were told.
Detective Jorge Fernandez said je interviewed Ray at the OPD on Friday and that Ray denied doing anything in front of the children.
Ray was arrested and transported to the Marion County Jail.
Records show Ray doesn't have a criminal history.

- Supplement Facts
Mix 4 Scoops (150g) into 18-20 fl-oz water. The optimal time for a serving of Monster Mass is 30-45 minutes immediately after your workout. This timing is critical because your muscles absorb approximately 80% of the aminos and carbs necessary to help them grow during the two hour period immediately following exercise. Depending on your weight gain and caloric needs take Monster Mass as a snack or as a meal addition.
CytoSport products complement a healthful eating and hydration plan that, when combined with a balanced exercise program may contribute to healthy weight management and recovery from exercise.

Pumping Up? How to Pick Your Protein Supplement
Pumping Up? How to Pick Your Protein SupplementOur protein supplement guide will help you excel on the court, in the gym, or on the roadIf you take your workouts seriously, nutrition should be top of mind too. Protein is a great place to start, and focusing on getting the right types of protein, in the right amounts, and at the right times is key. Our protein supplement guide will help you meet your wellness goals, potentially improving your performance on the court, in the gym, or on the road.What type?
Whey protein is quick to digest and provides all of the protein building blocks - the amino acids. Our bodies cannot make some amino acids, and whey is ideal for meeting essential amino acid needs. Whey also supplies branched-chain amino acids (BCAA), and some research supports that they aid muscle recovery after hard workouts.
Compared with whey, casein is slower to digest, and results in a lower, yet more prolonged rise in blood amino acid levels, which may provide a particular advantage for body builders. At least one study supports that casein outshines whey in terms of promoting strength and lean body mass gains in people following a structured weight-training plan.
Rice protein is less likely to create allergic reactions than other proteins, and it comes from a plant, making it appropriate for vegetarians. Another potential advantage is that rice protein contains a high proportion of arginine, an amino acid that can dilate blood vessels, possibly enhancing blood flow to muscles. Rice is not a "complete" protein however; it doesn't supply all of the essential amino acids. Some products combine rice protein with proteins from sources like soy or milk to make it complete.
Egg protein is ideal for people who are looking to build new muscle. It has a very high protein efficiency ratio (PER), which is one measure of how well our bodies can use any particular form of protein. The higher the PER, the more efficiently our bodies can use that protein when we eat it. Egg is off the charts in terms of PER. Egg protein also is a complete protein, and is a good source of essential and branched chain amino acids. Egg protein powder is made from egg whites, and comes in a convenient, pasteurized powder form.
Soy protein is a high-quality plant protein that provides all essential amino acids, making it a good option for vegetarians. For the body to best utilize soy protein, vegetarians should also eat grain or dairy within a few days. Soy protein comes in two basic forms: soy protein isolate and soy protein concentrate. Soy protein isolate is the most highly purified form, and has a minimum protein content of 90%. Soy protein concentrate contains more carbohydrates, and has a protein content of approximately 70%. Concentrates tend to cost a little less, but if you find soy protein concentrate doesn't agree with you, try isolate, which is easier for some people to digest.
How much?
With protein, as with many nutrients, more is not always better. According to Dr. Doug Paddon-Jones, Associate Professor at the University of Texas Medical Branch and Director of Exercise Studies, "30 grams of protein appears to stimulate maximum muscle synthesis. For athletes, each meal and snack is a chance to hit the 30 gram mark, giving your body several opportunities each day to maximize muscle growth and repair."
Another reason to spread protein evenly through the day is simple efficiency. "Given that your body won't use much beyond 30 grams of protein at a time, it doesn't make sense to load up with more than this," says Paddon-Jones.
- Breakfast-To support muscle building first thing in the morning, try trading traditional carb-heavy breakfast foods for more protein-rich options, such as a powder protein supplement mixed with milk and cereal.
- If you're heading into a long strength-training session-Sipping a casein-based protein supplement prior to and during your workout will give muscles sustained access to amino acids. If taken in the evening, casein can provide a steady supply of amino acids while you're sleeping.
- Immediately pre- or post-workout-Especially if your workout includes aerobic or circuit training, protein manufacturers recommend a whey protein-based liquid or powder supplement.

Comments about CytoSport™ MONSTER MASS™ - Cake Batter:
Really easy to use product, I mix with Milk for consistency and flavor, but you can use water. It has an amazing assortment of protein blends that will work for pre, during, and post workout, even a bedtime snack. You will get great gains with weight and muscle mass, feel a difference in your recovery time, and notice lean but MONSTER MASS!
And as always, depending on your goals of weight gain to cut gains, you can switch the serving size up between the 1-4 scoops and rotate between milk or water. And also keep in mind how many your taking be it pre during or post workout, and what your goals are for weight gain and strength to definition and cut in the muscles themselves.
I Take a half shake 45 minutes prior to workout and a 3/4 to Full serving immediately after workout. (Within Minutes.)
I feel great, it taste phenomenal, and I see the gains.
And a side note, for those looking to lose weight, its a good idea to use a protein shake as an aid to your weight loss. They can stimulate your body the right way to help burn fat and cut into muscle. They have all types of beneficent vitamins amino acids proteins that your body needs to lose weight get max gains and not cause deterioration because your malnourished.Pros

was probably the same day
He created SPRING.
I love that!
Let's make some artwork based on it!
- Grab a piece of wood. In this case, I used 1' x 2' scrap of 1/4" plywood.
- Grab a paintbrush and some good white primer. ( I like Kilz.)
- Put 2 generous coats on.
(Tip Of The Day: You DO know you can use regular old household contact paper/shelf-liner instead of the expensive vinyl, right...? And that it comes in black...?)
So using some of the contact paper I had on hand, I cut out my letters and kind of eyeballed where I wanted them to go. I just played around with the spacing until it worked for me.
- Once you know where they're going, peel off the backing and stick them down on the board.
- Rub them on with your finger until you get a good adhesion, then take your primer and put another thin coat over the top of the letters. (This ensures that you've got a good seal over the letters)
- Once dry, take the paint color of your choice and paint the entire board. In this case, I chose a Robin Egg blue.
- When your color base coat is dry, paint your bird (or leaves, flowers, bunny, whatever...) onto the board. I did this free-hand (and boy does it show) but you could use a stencil too.
You will be painting the bird (or whatever) over the top of your letters. While the bird's paint is still wet, start pulling off the letters under the bird. If you let the paint dry, it winds up pulling off the blue base color as well and you want the edges of the letters to be as crisp as possible.
See? Sometimes it pulls up anyway.
No worries. Once I'm done I will take a smaller paintbrush and touch up the black paint. (Possibly a Sharpie if it needs to be really detailed.)
Let it dry overnight.
- Toss it on the floor of your garage.
- Dig around on your husband's workbench for an orbital sander because yours is buried somewhere on Your side of the garage under arts and craft supplies, holiday decor and other thrift items you bought but haven't put away properly or finished working on because you have decorating A.D.D. and. Oh yeah....
- Sand it really well.
Mix a few drops of a pearl or silver acrylic paint with some water and lightly brush it over the artwork. (Think: brushing egg on a pie crust. It just finishes it off.)
Try to figure out where you're going to put it since you have the asymmetrical mantel from hell.
Like it? Give it a try!
Like it but would rather buy one? Go here.

Derby Select Board Chair Brian Smith and other local officials have been working to bring a Walmart to the Northeast Kingdom.
On Tuesday, plans to build a Walmart Supercenter to the Derby-Newport town line was announced.
"A lot of phone calls, a lot of emails, a lot of nights not sleeping very well," said Smith.
Beside the proposed site, Gov. Peter Shumlin and officials from both Derby and Newport presented the plans to bring the retailer to an empty field along Route 5.
"This is Vermont being smart about assuring that we're growing jobs and keeping Vermonters shopping in Vermont," said Shumlin.
After a major retailer left in the early 2000s, people in the region were driving almost an hour in New Hampshire to shop for items such as food, electronics and clothes.
"(We need) a place to buy underwear so we don't have to go to Littleton, (N.H.)," said State Senator Robert Starr.
Walmart expects to employ 300 people at the projected 150.000 square foot. complex.
"I do believe it will have a positive impact on the area because people will be shopping local, money will stay local," said Newport Mayor Paul Monette.
In 2011, 85 percent of voters in the two towns came out in support of the development. Since then, Shumlin has been working with Walmart and the two towns to work on a plan.

On the fundamental question--evolution or creation?--Americans are on the fence. According to one survey, while 61% of Americans believe we have evolved over time, 22% believe this evolution was guided by a higher power, with another 31% on the side of creationism. For some, modern science debunks many of religion's core beliefs, but for others, questions like "Why are we here?" and "How did it all come about?" can only be answered through a belief in the existence of God. Can science and religion co-exist?

Ian Hutchinson is a physicist and Professor of Nuclear Science and Engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He and his research group are international leaders exploring the generation and confinement (using magnetic fields) of plasmas hotter than the sun's center. This research, carried out on a national experimental facility designed, built, and operated by Hutchinson's team, is aimed at producing practical energy for society from controlled nuclear fusion reactions, the power source of the stars. In addition to authoring 200 research articles about plasma physics, Hutchinson has written and spoken widely on the relationship between science and Christianity. His recent book Monopolizing Knowledge (2011) explores how the error of scientism arose, how it undermines reason as well as religion, and how it feeds today's culture wars and an excessive reliance on technology.

Evolution is real, although using it to disprove God is totally off the wall, as I feel it only shows us how the universe/God works....the same as scientists today, trial and error!
This planet was the one that was capable for life to grow and sustain itself. For all we know those other planets could have once been like our own but due to some force ended up as frozen or too hot or filled with poisonous gases...we don't know and I doubt we ever will for many of thousands of years, if ever at all!
If this planet is the sole unique one with complex lifeforms on it, was it by random chance and events or all part of some predetermined plan?
Which if it's the latter then who came up wih the blueprint/designs?
Firstly I must say I enjoy the show and embrace the need for intellectual debate, however I don't agree with declaring a winner in them. I understand that's how the show and debate works, although I'm more interested in just the imformative talk going on.
Now pertaining specifically to this topic, I feel that neither side can completely prove or disprove the existence of God or a God/Creator/Almighty Being for that matter.
In fact, personally I feel that there is no one thing or person who will ever be able to show us where the universe came from! While I accept the vast majority of claims that science provides us with, the one that would undoubtedly change my beliefs towards the possibility of there being a "higher being" would be proof of where matter originated. I feel that science has come a long ways from where it once was, hidden in secrecy because of religious persecutions. Yet, science can not explain or show how or what existed before the big bang happened. From what I understand which is limited I'll be honest with you, is that science agrees with the big bang theory and how that led to our known Universe that we still are trying to grasp and understand.
What was there before? Its size is uncomprehensible that's for sure but what was it? Perhaps it was God himself? Regardless though, science can show us this matter seperated over billions/millions/however many years of time and space and led to our present.
The old testament of the bible tries to explain this by saying how God created things and in the order in which he did so. However when I read it and came to that part the question that arose in myself was, "what or how long is a day to God?" Surely not the amount of time it takes for earth to rotate on its axis.
Now the thing I find most interesting is the idea of morals and how suffering sort of parallels alongside them. Where or when these came about would be something interesting to find out. Why do we still base our laws off of morals and ideals? Apparently we must feel as if there could be something better than what we currently have in our "material" world.
All I know is that one day I will die, as everything that is "alive" will eventually do, including things that are in "outer space" like stars. Science says that energy can't be lost or destroyed only transfered elsewhere, so where will my energy go? I obviously haven't the slightest of clue.
I will admit that without the idea of a God or at least the morals instilled in my mind that its wrong to cause harm or suffering to other living things, that I would be inclined to acquire the marvelous achievement of science(a nuclear warhead) and blow this piece of rock to tiny pieces. Very possible if you drill and detonate deep underground btw!
Like the one guy said who was for the motion, there is no purpose just randomness haha. If that were the case then you believe that everything that ever happened was all just random chance and result of the previous random events before it. But like I said already, what was there before the beginning of time/space/the known universe which is all we know? We know something was always there, some just choose to name it...God.....
As you can see I believe in Intelligent design which means to me that everything has a purpose and nothing is "random"
Science can neither prove nor disprove the existence of a 'God'
which I feel to be more inclusive as a statement that should have
in my opinion been considered as one of the options available to
us in this debate voting. Otherwise people get herded into this
'undecided' category revealing the glaring fault of either or
thinking so prevalent in this society which imposes "you're not
white you must be black, if you're not a Republican you must be
a Democrat, and on and on it goes neurotically into infinity!

The moderator started the debate by saying that Sir Isaac Newton, among others, was a believer. I understand that he only said he was a believer because that was a requirement for his position at Oxford.
That could have been the case with many others at the time. Certainly in Pepys's time one was obliged to attend church and pretend belief.
As a famous author once said:
"Man created God in the image of MAN"
God is merely a CREATION of the human MIND...
what does a god, any god, need with a planet revolving around a sun floating in 'space', why are there other planets, why is there a galaxy, why are there billions of stars with hundreds of billions of planets in billions of galaxies, few of which are habitable by humans if at all.
there is no need for any of this if a god can provide us with a perfect place to live.
Gretchen: god is not love. Love is a psychosocial response to stimuli. God is a supernatural entity that supposedly created and guides the entire universe. Notice the difference there?
That feeling you have, the deep-down feeling of being loved by the universe, is a symptom of the brainwashing that your religion has enacted on you. The same feeling can be achieved through many forms of manipulation, including meditation. It is no more evidentiary than a statement of belief.
first, there may be a god, but not the one of any of the earth's thousands of religions.
it's easier for me to believe that aliens came here, perhaps appearing as holograms or even in person, and were interpreted as gods because they came from the sky and had technology we thought was magic, than it is to believe that some 'supernatural' being cares about some creature here. example, soldiers in WWII landed in places like new guinea and gave the people food. the natives then made mock airplanes and created rituals to try to bring them back, effectively creating a new religion.
second, the moral argument...civilization had morality before there were gods. children under 4 know what is right and wrong without ever knowing about god, that HAS been shown in experiments. animals take care of other animals not in their group or even their species without believing in god (well, we don't know or believe they do)
third, in spite of this, this still doesn't explain some of the unexplainable or at least unexplained, why an object can fly across a room without being touched by anyone in the room, why an exorcism seems to really work, or why most people who have near death experiences say they experience 'light and intense love' (and no, no lab has been able to recreate this experience)
Both sides missed the point. God is love. To say that science refutes god is to say that science refutes love. This is an irrational pursuit. We seek god because we seek love. Not the love of the physical and material world. This love is informed, tested, measured, etc. by science. The love that comes from god is experienced in the deepest part of our being we have come to understand as our soul. It's the kind of love we experience when our humanity is expressed outwardly, toward others, in a way that increases and expands the love of humanity. It's found in forgiveness, patience, compassion, charity, kindness, peace and many other human expressions of love. Religion is how we come to know and to love god and in knowing god we discover the perfect model of love. Then we pursue our purpose in life, which is to express our humanity in the purest form of love attainable, limited only by our will, guided and informed by god and religion. Yes, one can seek to love without god, but why? Thousands of years of critical, intelligent human thought and discernment have produced an incredible body of knowledge contained in religion. These ideas have been tested by time, and culture, and science, and all the things that have come and gone over the history of humanity. This refutation is a thinly disguised rage against god and religion (and therefore love) and seems counter to the betterment of humanity. And it leans precariously toward arrogance and ignorance.
Awesome debate!!! Where does that guy get off saying that there is NO evidence that the conscience stems from the materiel world? Last time I checked, people who don't have functioning brains (and I mean, people who PHYSICALLY don't have functioning brains) don't have a conscience! Isn't that pretty powerful evidence that the conscience is created by the brain?

I had a great time at The 52nd Street Project's Spring Sing Thing: A Garden Variety Benefit at Espace on Monday night, thanks to my hosts Mildred and Borah Walton, whose daughter Denise Burse (House of Payne) invited me to the party. Ms. Burse and her husband Peter Jay Fernandez (FX's Damages), are among the countless professional theater artists who have mentored and nurtured kids of The 52nd St. Project for almost two decades.
Looking for a way to improve the quality of life for New York's inner-city children, actor/playwright and 1994 MacArthur Fellow Willie Reale founded The 52nd Street Project in 1981.
Mr. Reale, an actor, playwright, and company member of the Ensemble Studio Theater (EST), used his company privileges to reach out to the children of the neighborhood by creating theatrical endeavors specifically for them. This was done with the cooperation and support of EST and its across-the-street-neighbor, the Police Athletic League's Duncan Center. The Project is an independent not-for-profit organization that creates over eighty new plays and serves over 115 children every year.For 29 years, The Project's mission has been dedicated to the creation and production of new plays for and by kids between the ages of nine and eighteen that reside in the Hell's Kitchen neighborhood in New York City.
Cocktails and dinner were followed by a delightful show, emceed by Martha Plimpton, featuring songs with lyrics written by kids of the Project and music supplied by professional artists.
Spring Sing Thing was written by John Sheehy, directed by Jonathan Bernstein, and featured musical direction and piano by Kimberly Grigsby, Thad DeBrock on guitar, Jeff Potter on drums, and backup singers Emma Hunton and Gabriel Violett. With music coordination by Kim D. Sherman, lighting design by Greg MacPherson, sound design by Charles Coe and set design by George Babiak.
Memphis' star James Monroe Inglehart, who sat at our table, was adorable singing 'She the Best' by lyricist Adnan Ahmed, age 10, and composer Brian Lowdermilk (Henry and Mudge).
'Immortal Powers' with lyrics by Melissa Rebolledo, age 13, was composed and sung by Michael Cerveris (Assassins). American Idiot's star Rebecca Naomi Jones (Passing Strange) rocked 'To The Beat of New York' by lyricist Elizabeth Vasquez, age 12, and composer Tom Kitt (Next to Normal). Glee's Matthew Morrison, who has charmed Broadway audiences in South Pacific, Hairspray and Light in the Piazza, sang 'Need U' by lyricist Wendell Joseph, age 13, and composer Jeanine Tesori (Caroline or Change, Shrek The Musical).
Greg Naughton of the band The Sweet Remains was joined by his wife Kelli O'Hara (South Pacific, Light in the Piazza) to sing 'Springtime the Joyful Time' by lyricist Brandon Leon, age 12, which Naughton composed as well.
Proceeds from Spring Sing Thing will support the project's original writing, performance and tutoring programs.
The 52nd Street Project now has a home of their own, their very first theater located at 789 Tenth Avenue between 52nd & 53rd Streets, in the Archstone-Clinton development, which is slated to open later this summer. For more information, visit: www.52project.org.
