Raising Children to Pursue Truth
In this video Conversation, Joel Hunter articulates the importance of raising a child that can garner knowledge from a variety of sources and to be able to study science with integrity—that is, to be able to pursue the truth to where it leads.
Scientists Tell Their Stories: George Murphy
During his seminary education, Dr. Murphy also gained a deeper understanding of Luther's theology of the cross, and he realized that it's really the best way to approach the science and theology dialogue.
Daniel Harrell on Embracing Science
In this video, Pastor Daniel Harrell encourages the Christian community to embrace science as an element which can harmonize and strengthen, rather than attack and undermine their understanding of theology.
Does the Slippery Slope Always Go to the Left?
In this video Conversation, N.T. Wright responds to a question from a BioLogos Forum reader who notes that in the world of evangelical Christianity there seems to be a great suspicion about becoming too politically liberal, but few worries about becoming too conservative.
The Danger of Preaching on Genesis
In this video Conversation, Joel Hunter acknowledges the risk that pastors take when preaching on Genesis—and in particular, when they approach it with an attitude of humility, allowing the possibility that the text was not meant to be understood in literal terms.
No Fear
In this video Conversation, Os Guinness notes that Christians should be able to relate their faith to all sorts of issues, including science, and should have no fear of doing so. Guinness quotes George Whitfield, who said, "I'm never better than when I'm on the full stretch for God."
Getting Back to Basics
In today's video Conversation, Dr. Greg Boyd discusses the basic truths that provide the framework for Christian belief and distinguishes them from the potentially divisive issues that do not compromise what he refers to as the "non-negotiable" truths.
Science and Faith in the Front Lines of the Culture War
In this brief video conversation, Os Guinness, author and founder of the Trinity Forum, suggests that the religious right might have largely created the current culture war that has science and faith as its core antagonists.
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.
Mystery and Faith
In today's video, Michael Ramsden discusses the importance and meaning of mystery in the Bible.
Creation, Evolution, and Christian Laypeople

Daniel Harrell on Embracing Truth
In this video, Daniel Harrell affirms that science is not the only way to pursue truth. Rather, truth happens in a variety of different ways and each one ultimately leads to an understanding of God.
America's Culture Wars: A Different Perspective
In this video Conversation, Rev. N.T. Wright responds to the controversy in evangelicalism about evolution. Is this a "culture war" issue?

All Truth is God's Truth
In this video Conversation, Joel Hunter remarks: "I believe that all truth is God's truth," says Hunter, "so I am never afraid of truth—no matter who it comes from."
On Engaging in Difficult Conversations
In this video Conversation, Joel Hunter points out that when issues of faith become politicized and polarized, there will always be people who leave the churches that tackle these issues head on.
Confidence and Slippery Slopes
In today's video, Pastor Brian McClaren notes that the metaphor "slippery slopes" is problematic, because we often assume that we are on the top of the slope to begin with, when in fact changing our views may help us ascend the slope, or to reach a new peak of understanding on the other side.
Teaching Evolutionary Science in a Christian College Context
In this video "Conversation," three faculty members from Christian colleges -- Professor Dorothy Boorse of Gordon College, Professor Jim Nichols of Abilene Christian University, and Provost Claudia Beversluis of Calvin College -- share thoughts on teaching evolutionary science to Christian undergraduates.
God Revealed in Creation
In this video, pastor Daniel Harrell notes that, to him, faith must correspond to how things are, not merely how we wish they could be. Thus, exploring nature can be seen as a way to also explore our faith.
A Pastor Reflects on the Scientific Method
In today's video, Daniel Harrell reflects on the rigors of the scientific method, reminding us that what gives scientific discoveries their weight is not the individuals who make them, but the methods of science themselves, which instill in us a level of confidence.

Thousands of marketers are now born-again content marketers (the palm print of well-known content marketing evangelists still visible on their foreheads). A study published this week said 95% of UK marketers "do content marketing".
It's a milepost.
From the dark art of bloggers to the secret sauce of edgy digital marketers, content marketing's now evolved into 'putting copy garnish on your website'.

Digital ad spend in Australia reached $3.3b last year, an 18% increase on 2011, according to a new Interactive Advertising Bureau (IAB) report.
Figures showed that not only did digital ad spend as a whole exceed market predictions last year but mobile advertising saw a growth of 220%, pulling in $86.2m. Year-on-year, video advertising also grew 30% to reach $90.3m.
The significant rise in figures was due to growth across all categories, including a 27% increase in Search and Directories advertising, a 10% increase in General Display advertising and a 9% increase in Classifieds advertising.

20% of emails sent by Australian brands do not reach the intended inbox, with 2% being sent to spam and the other 18% going missing or being blocked.
This problem gets even worse if the intended reader is a Dodo or Optus subscriber, as only 57% of legitimate email were delivered to these inboxes in 2012.
In contrast, 92% of marketing emails reach their target inbox in New Zealand, with only 8% going missing.

It seems Australia's Baby Boomers are being shunned by brands and marketers who are instead focusing on younger, more tech savvy consumers - something that's already been identified as an opportunity in other countries.
According to a new Mi9 report, only 10% of Australian advertising spend is directed towards Baby Boomers, despite the fact that this age group is currently entering into a 'Lifestyle' stage where they have more disposable income than any other group.
And of the small number of brands who do target the over-55s, it looks like they may be entirely missing the mark, as overwhelmingly, 94% of Baby Boomers say they dislike the way advertisers currently communicate with them.

What does the word mobile mean? To many companies, including those in retail, mobile is used to describe any connected device that's portable.
That makes some sense: despite the fact that there are differences between the growing number of connected devices that can fit in a pocket or bag, there are often enough similarities, at least on the surface, to justify putting them in the same bucket. But can and should the all-encompassing use of mobile translate to strategy?

If you were a king, how would you deck out your royal residence? Chances are you'd invest heavily to ensure your surroundings matched the importance of your status.
So (and forgive the far from subtle analogy), if content is king, then where you host your content surely needs a similar amount of thought, care and investment?

Showrooming probably isn't going to make it onto a list of retail executives' favorite words any time soon. After all, the notion that the significant amounts of money required to operate physical stores is increasingly going to waste as consumers use stores to check out products they'll buy cheaper online isn't a pleasant one.
But is all of the fear around the showrooming really justified? According to a study published by Ipsos MediaCT and the Interactive Advertising Bureau (IAB), the answer may be no.

When you hear the word startup, chances are images of twenty-somethings hacking away at Macs in a loft office with an open floor plan spring to mind. And for good reason: head to sunny California, home to Silicon Valley and some of the today's prominent internet startups, and you're bound to find that a lot of startups do look something like this.
But that doesn't mean that one should jump to the conclusion that Gen-Y is the generation with the greatest entrepreneurial spirit. According to a new survey released today by Monster.com and Millennial Branding, members of Gen-X and the Baby Boomer generation actually consider themselves to be more entrepreneurial than their younger siblings and children.

A new Yahoo!7 survey has revealed that social media is playing an increasingly larger role in influencing the television viewing habits of Australians.
The second annual Social TV Survey polled more than 7,000 online Australians late last year and found that almost half of the respondents (43%) used social media while watching television.

POLONNARUWA, Sri Lanka, Jan 17 2013 (IPS) - During the dry season, when dirt roads are cracked from the relentless heat, the sight of women walking miles, balancing pots of water on their heads, is common in rural Sri Lanka.
While the men tend to paddy fields, the women are left with the arduous task of collecting water for household use. They account for every drop of water consumed, utilised or wasted – making them crucial players in rural water projects.

Focus: Impunity and transitional justice
In Asia, while notable progress has been made in building and strengthening democratic institutions in some countries, authoritarian or essentially un- democratic political systems persist in many others. Regardless of the form of government, however, impunity remains a key challenge to the promotion and protection of human rights across Asia. Several countries, including Afghanistan, Burma, Pakistan and Sri Lanka, are torn apart by protracted conflicts and other situations of violence, resulting on widespread human rights violations
Despite a four-day truce which was supposed to come into effect on Friday 26 October, fighting has continued to escalate in Damascus province, Aleppo, Idlib, Daara and Deir Ezzor in Syria manifested by a new wave of airstrikes by the Syrian forces and attacks by the rebels on strategic army checkpoints and air bases.
Chronic conflict, earthquakes, recurrent seasonal storms, floods, droughts, and severe winter weather, as well as limited government response capacity, present significant challenges to vulnerable populations in South Asia. Between Fiscal Year (FY) 2003 and FY 2012, USAID's Office of U.S. Foreign Disaster Assistance (USAID/OFDA) and USAID's Office of Food for Peace (USAID/FFP) have provided humanitarian assistance in response to a diverse range of natural and complex emergencies in the region, including cyclones in Bangladesh, earthquakes in India and Pakistan, and complex crises in
Severe flooding caused by heavy rainfall on Monday has forced several residents of Hoarafushi in Haa Alif atoll to evacuate their homes after flood waters damaged furniture and electrical wiring in 95 households.

Challenge Summary:
Single Click Solution to download a batch of MP3 files to a mobile device.
The Challenge:
GRN makes its audio programs available in MP3 format. Each program typically contains a large number of MP3 files (eg 40). The programs are primarily targeted at mobile users who do not have a device that supports a known convenient method for downloading all files for a program in a single batch. Most devices do not support ZIP files and it is not desirable to build a custom application that will run on the device for this purpose. We are looking for a solution that will run from our mobile website to enable them to download the full program in a single click (or at least not requiring the onerous task of downloading each track one at a time).
The details:
JavaScript support is pretty poor on the devices targeted. It may be impossible to get this to work on all mobile devices, however if it can work on a significant proportion that would be excellent. Typical devices are the wide range of Nokia and Samsung phones. For example:
These phones have a WAP 2.0/xHTML browser with MIDP 2.0 or 2.1 Java support.

1771. Jany. Court. Wright and Gill vs. Mein—The Jury.
The Jury found a Verdict for the Sum sued for. Kent moved that the Verdict should be rejected. I deny'd the Power of the Court to reject it, and said if he would move for a new Tryal, that would not be without a Precedent in the Superiour Court tho it would in an inferiour Court.

13 Ed. 1. c. 30. Barrington Obs. on Stat. 103. "Item ordinatum est quod Justitiarii ad Assisas capiendas assignati, non compellant Juratores dicere precise, si sit disseisina vel non; dummodo voluerint dicere Veritatem facti, et petere Auxilium Justiciariorum;
sed si sponte velint dicere quod Disseisina sit, vel non, Admittatur eorum Veredictum sub suo periculo—
The latter part of this Chapter shews, that the Contest between Judges and Juries was of a very different Nature at this Time, from what it hath been of late Years. The Reason of this arises from what I have before observed, with regard to it being very common anciently to bring Attaints against Juries, and an Angry or dishonest Judge therefore drove them to the finding an improper Verdict in order to subject them to the Prosecution by Attaint; Admittatur eorum Veredictum sub suo periculo—As
this Law is unrepealed, there can therefore be no doubt but a Jury may find what Verdict they please,
and the Misfortune is, that they run no Risque at present of an Attaint; there is however generally that Moderation in Juries, that they seldom abuse this Liberty. This Chapter is generally called the Statute of Nisi Prius; it relates to Actions depending in Utroque Banco, without any Notice of the Court of Exchequer."

Note. "Altho the Jurie, if they will take upon them (as Littleton here saith) the Knowledge of the Law, may give a general Verdict, yet it is dangerous for them so to do, for if they mistake the Law, they run into the Danger of an Attaint, therefore to find the Special Matter, is the safest Way, where the Case is doubtfull."

Foster. 255. "In every Case where the Point turneth upon the Question, whether the Homicide was committed willfully and maliciously, or under Circumstances justifying, Excusing, or alleviating; the Matter of Fact, vizt., whether the Facts alledged by Way of Justification, Excuse, or Alleviation are true, is the
Province of the Jury. But whether upon a Supposition of the Truth of Facts such Homicide be justified, excused, or alleviated must be submitted to the Judgment of the Court. For the Construction the Law putteth
p. 221
upon Facts stated and agreed or found by a Jury is, in this, as in all other Cases, undoubtedly the Proper Province of the Court. In Cases of Doubt and real Difficulty it is commonly recommended to the Jury to state Facts and Circumstances in a Special Verdict. But when the Law is clear, the Jury under the Direction of the Court in Point of Law, Matters of Fact being still left to their Determination, may, and if they are well advised always will find a general Verdict conformable to such Direction. Ad Quaestionem Juris non respondent Juratores."
Burrows 393. Bright Exr. vs. Eynon.
Lord Mansfield, "Tryals by Jury, in civil Causes could not subsist now, without a Power somewhere, to grant new Tryals, &c. &c.
If an erroneous Judgment be given in Point of Law, there are many Ways to review and set it right. Where a Court judges of Fact upon Depositions in Writing, their Sentence or Decree may, many Ways, be reviewed and set right.

[It is generally agreed, that]
No Prosecution by Attaint hath been carried on against a Jury for the last 300 Years." (Note this. Lord Coke lived 150 Years ago, so that the Attaint had been disused 150 Years when he wrote.) "This arises partly from the more modern Practice of granting new Tryals, and partly from the great Difficulty there is in convicting, as the Jury may give their Verdict upon what is known to themselves, though it hath not appeared in Evidence during the Course of the Tryal. It is indeed said, that a Juror having such private Knowledge of a Fact should disclose it, in open Court; but what signifies the mere Advice of a Judge, which cannot be inforced?"
"It may
deserve Consideration, whether this method of Punishment, being now totally disused may not have occasioned a most material Alteration, and Deviation from the Principles, upon which Juries were originally instituted.
"The Attaint
[was trial by twenty-four jurors, of double the substance with the first jury; and it is to be observed that it]
lay only in civil Cases, either by common Law or by this Statute. The Reason is,
p. 224
strong Presumption, that no Jury would condemn a criminal contrary to the Evidence: and that it would be inconsistent with the Principles of Liberty to permit the Crown

But the Practice, heretofore in Use of fining, imprisoning, or otherwise punishing Juries merely at the discretion of the Court, for finding their

Verdict, contrary to the direction of the Judge, was arbitrary, unconstitutional, and illegal: and is treated as such by Sir Thomas Smith, 200 Years ago; who 'accounted such doings to be very violent, tyrannical, and contrary to the Liberty and Custom of the Realm of England.'
For as Sir Mathew Hale well observes 2. H.P.C. 313
'it would be a most unhappy Case, for the Judge himself, if the Prisoners Fate depended upon his Directions: unhappy also for the Prisoner; for, if the Judges opinion must rule the Verdict, the Tryal by Jury would be useless.' Yet in many Instances, 1 Lev. 9,

"Upon Evidence in an Ejectione firmae between Middleton and Baker, it was resolved by the whole Court, that if the Plantiff in Evidence sheweth any matter in Writing, or of Record, or any Sentence in the ecclesiastical Court, upon which a Question in Law doth arise, and the Defendant offereth to demurr in Law upon it, the Plantiff cannot refuse to join in Demurrer, but he
p. 227
ought to join in the Demurrer or waive his Evidence. So if the Plantiff produceth Witnesses to prove any matter in Fact, upon which a Question in Law doth arise, if the Defendant admitteth their Testimony to be true, there also the Defendant may demurr in Law upon it, but then he ought to admit the Evidence given by the Plantiff to be true; and the Reason hereof is,
that matter in Law shall not be put to Laymen.
So may the Plantiff demurr upon the Defendants Evidence, mutatis mutandis; But if Evidence be given for the King, in Information or other suit, and the Defendant offer to demurr upon it, the Kings Council are not tied to join in Demurrer, but in such Case
the Court ought to direct the Jury to find the Special matter, and upon that they shall adjudge the Law
as it appeareth 34. H. 8. Dyer 53.
But that is by the Kings Prerogative who also may waive a Demurrer, and take issue at his Pleasure quod Nota."
Mem. every Thing that is said by the Court to the Jury, is uniformly styled in our Books a Direction. So the Court give a Charge to the grand Jury to present a particular offence, &c. But the Question is whether the Jury are bound, in Point of Conscience, or of Law, to observe that Direction and find according to it? Are they subject to any Penalty, or Fine, or Imprisonment, or corporal Punishment, if they find contrary to that Direction? No Man will say that they are.
Question. Whether Ind
may be maintained for "Sundries" or "Sundry Goods Wares and Merchandizes," or "sundry Goods Chattells and Articles," without any Account or Schedule of Particulars annexed to the Writ, or enumerated in the Declaration. Saunders 69. Peacock vs. Bell & Kendal, 70, 71.

Sito Rocks Concert Review 4/19/13 @ Aqua Nightclub (Twin Cities)
Recently returned from the infamous Barcelona nightlife and the set for his new video "Party On My Level" with Sak Noel, the charismatic singer Sito Rocks found himself on a flight from the warmth of Miami to the April snow of Minneapolis.

Steven 'Stevie' Evans is the younger brother of Sam Evans and older brother of Stacey Evans.
Season Two
It is said that Stevie along with the rest of his family move to Ohio from Tennessee when his dad gets a new job. However, due to the failing economy, Dwight loses his job, and due to being unable to get a new job, the family eventually loses their house. They are then forced to sell the majority of their possessions and move into a motel, keeping the remainder of their belongings in Dwight's car. Initially, Sam keeps this a secret from the New Directions. However both Quinn Fabray and Kurt Hummel discover the truth. Kurt donates clothing to the family, while Quinn offers to help babysit Stacey and Stevie while Sam does his part-time pizza delivery job. Eventually, the rest of the group finds out the truth, after accusing him of having affairs with Quinn and/or Kurt behind the backs of Finn Hudson and Blaine Anderson. Feeling guilty, New Directions buy back the guitar that Sam was forced to sell, and Finn and Rachel deliver it as a present, meeting Stevie and Stacy for the first time. Stevie and Stacey later join the New Directions to perform Don't Stop.
The Evans family moves to Kentucky in the summer that takes place between Season Two and Season Three.

Yet another cockamamie idea from the Mayor's hand-picked boy. The Chief's policy of "shoot first, ask questions later" will work well when little Stevie or Queen Suzi are threatened by some citizen whose only crime is to ask a straight-forward question about City policy. The cops don't even enforce red light violations when they occur right in front of a cop car! Can't wait for 2015 to rid ourselves of this jackass of a mayor and his cronies and other hangers on.

Kevin McClarty - Your list has many problems. 1. The NRA did not start the recall process, local citizens did. 2. Morse is not being recalled because of his support for background checks, he is being recalled to his support of magazine capacity limits, increased tax on gun purchases, liability for sellers of guns, and for specifically saying that he doesn't listen to the "toxic" opinions of his constituents because it "weighs on his psyche". 3. A recall does not somehow diminish the Constitutional rights of voters. It actually gives people more of a voice in government. People are given the opportunity to speak directly to their elected officials and voice their opposition to his actions. Since he doesn't read constituent's letters, maybe he will take notice of the results of a special election.
Power to the people works both ways. This recall takes power from the rich elite like Bloomberg, and gives it back to the little guy.

I am a perfectly happy and healthy guy who with siggie likes to jazz up all you weirdos with your pants below your butts with a dose of reality, giving you something other than your self justifying thinking on subjects to save you from yourselves and from your ruining our country.
The reasons for homelessness are not as simple as "They've made a mess of their life." Please note the 755 children reported homeless by two school districts, accounting for 64% of the total 1,171 reported homeless in El Paso County. Yes, there are entire families who are homeless. They were most likely hanging on to the American dream with their fingernails before the recession but lay-offs, lack of employment opportunities, minimum wage stagnation, rising gas, food and other costs, etc. tossed them even further down the economic ladder. Did they mess up their lives or even choose their situation? Bad things CAN happen to good people. A little compassion can go a long way...
Nothing surprises me about the cozy relationships Bach, the Gazette, the Koch Bros., AFP have with each other. I'm happy there's an honest paper like the Independent to be our eyes and ears because we certainly won't get the truth from the rest of media in this city.
TT -- Why a registry for legal adult recreational marijuana users? Is there a registry for alcohol or tobacco? Do they test public assistance recipients for alcohol, tobacco, or RX drugs used illegally? You obviously care what other people do since you continue to harass, harangue, b*tch, moan, and whine a whole lot about other people and their situations... I wonder what ever happened to you to turn you into such a miserable human being?
BTW, I have had an extremely well-paying job my entire life and career as do most of my other pot-using friends. I think you'd be surprised at the true demographics of this particular topic.
Judy: perhaps you could challenge dan to show proof of his statement. Even you should be able to contest the substance of "lying sack of feces".
Judy, Judy, Judy: I guess I just heard from another loud-mouthed liberal. You and your liberal bretheren can espouse any point of view you like. However, when you or anyone else makes false claims and unsubstantiated statements, they will be challenged. I guess liberals believe they can get away with saying anything they please and if challenged, then the insults and name calling ensue. Since I'm not as thin-skinned as the average loony liberal, I'm likely to not lose a great deal of sleep over it.
Now, please point out all punctuation and grammar errors so that I might improve. (Sister Verona would be aghast, if she knew.)
Judy...what do you about John Morse, which is what the article is about.
The man is a lying sack of feces and needs to be recalled.
Why would you ask someone who has made a mess of their life how we should go about fixing it...if they knew they could just do it as it is their responsibility and not ours.
Not to mention that because they remain in the ditch means they don't have a clue.
Maybe those of us whose lives are well ordered can show them what to do...like the same things we were told...pay attention in school, go to work clean and obedient, don't drink and take care of your children...this list is long and obvious.
You are wose than a "loud mouthed" liberal. You appear to be narrow minded and very intolerant of anyone who has a different point of view than yours. You seem to think very highly of yourself. You behave in a very childish, attacking, and irrational manner. People have a right to their opinion and should be able to express their point of view without you jumping up on your conservative intolerant pedestal to hurl insults at someone who happends to have a different point of view. People have different points of view, just because it is not your point of view does not mean you need to behave like a child. By the way, you need to work on your grammar and punctuation skills.
Could not believe the radio commercial I heard today trying to protect John Morse. I was not following this at all. Today however, I heard a radio ad telling me to lock my doors, hide the children and panic in pure fear. Why? because some people were trying to get a petition signed. Talk about domestic terrorism. It sounds a lot like the police unions out east saying run for your lives because you won't pay us enough money to protect you. New version of the mob. Posting anonymously for fear of retribution since there is no free speech anymore.
The more people carrying guns, the safer we all are...nobody messes with an armed man, so if everyone is armed, everyone toes the line.
Please take a quick look at my article in which I point out how ridiculous the NRA's logic is in initiating this recall against Senator Morse. Please take a look at all five lists (photos) and read the texts for each one to get the full impact of how ill-informed the NRA is in its arguments. Thank you! -Kevin McClarty, Examiner.com commentator.

Fruit Flavors
When you've got to have that real, fruity taste, search for candies made with real fruit juice like Skittles or Starburst GummiBursts, gummies oozing with liquid centers. Wolfgang Chocolate Covered Blueberries are made with real fruit and solid milk chocolate. Our bulk Red Raspberry Gummies taste just like fresh fruit! Judson Lemon Sours give Lemonheads a run for their money, with their refreshing kick. But Ornery Orange Gummy Bears are sweet as honey.

Drawing lines on maps with no thought for the people affected by frontier changes is indicative of the mentality of the Establishment. The experience of the people of the UK who live in the fringes of historical counties and find their official identities changed to suit the despots in the City, equate with the experiences of people worldwide who have been similarly disregarded.
In Africa, the imperialists drew lines on the continental map and created false nations out of thin air. The Talmudic racist ideology that Africans are sub-human, legitimated the theft of African land. In addition, organic territorial boundaries were ignored and people from culturally and historically distinct tribes founds themselves thrown into single administrative areas, labelled as nations, but with no legitimacy (being no more than markings on paper). Unrest and warfare resulting from incompatible peoples being corralled into the same living space, has been used to further stigmatise the people and reinforce the Talmudic myth that people in Africa are uncivilised and warlike. This is the chutzpah of Talmudism; label people as materialists, then steal their resources and force them to compete in the materialist system of your creation; label people as warlike, then create the conditions for war. What better way to make people fight than to impoverish them to the point of starvation and then force them to share the precious few available commodities with people with whom they have no bonds of kinship?
The internationalists have created unrest in every nation where they have created artificial national and local borders. In the north of Ireland, Irishmen have been trapped inside the UK against their wishes, sharing land with people who identify with the UK and resent their presence. In Yorkshire, the Lancastrian town of Todmorden is governed by the remote 'Calderdale' authority; a Culturally Marxist entity which has no respect for the culture of Yorkshire, let alone the indigenous Lancastrian, even Burnley, spirit of Todmorden. In the east of Europe, the great city of Lvov is governed by the Ukraine, and not by Poland. Line-drawing imperialists with no understanding of, or even desire to understand, local customs, have wrecked every nation they have touched.
In Serbia, the international finance imperialists have created the rogue state of Kosovo, on Serbian soil. Kosovo is the cradle of Serbia so to remove it from the motherland is to tear out the heart of the nation. The people of Serbia have been brutalised by NATO and have had a drug-dealing terrorist state placed on their soil. The reaction of NATO to the protests of the Serbian people has been more violence and bloodshed.

Most A/V receivers with any pretensions toward high performance — and most audio and video products in general, for that matter — are designed and marketed for hardcore hobbyists, not average consumers. What's the difference? The hobbyist revels in scores of setup options, dozens of surround modes, and fistfuls of video-processing choices. Hobbyists demand high power specs — at least 100 watts per channel — and accept and even welcome the bulk and mass usually associated with it. The hobbyist welcomes buttons, knobs, and remote-control functions, relishing the opportunity to customize command options and to even program macros.
And the consumer, meanwhile, just wants to watch the freakin' movie.
She, or he, probably doesn't even expect things to look great and sound great. But when they do, the more awake sort of viewer quickly comes to value quality reproduction, and to value it highly.
British A/V electronics maker Cambridge Audio has presented us with a true rarity: a new, high-quality receiver designed for consumers, not hobbyists. For the most part, it's a highly successful attempt: The Azur 551R is very nearly as simple to use as an A/V receiver can be, yet it gives up little or nothing to the bristling, feature-laden models in its same price range.
The first thing you notice is the size: The 551R is truly half the size of many a line-topping A/V receiver of the current age and weighs in at a comparatively svelte 22 pounds. The second thing is the construction: The Cambridge appears milled out of a solid block of aluminum, with the kind of fit and finish you expect on expensive German cars but rarely find on audio/video gear. (My sample looked gorgeous in silver; black is also available.) The third is the simple front panel: A handful of buttons, a modest display, and just a single volume knob complete the fascia.
I'm planning on a major update of my home theater this summer and I'm liking this machine. I just got an Oppo BD-105 blu-ray plus everything player which I can use for all the Internet inter-connectivity this machine leaves out. I also want to hook up an Audio-Technica turntable and a 1990 dual deck Yamaha cassette player (I not only have a lot of records but some things that I only have on cassette--no 8 tracks though). I'm looking at the Golden Ear Triton 3 plus center and surrounds for speakers. I think it would make a nice system. Any suggestions?

Hundreds of residents bundled in their warmest winter duds took to Broadway to be a part of the Chamber's old time Holiday celebration which included carollers, a visit from a very special chicken and Santa himself who hopped a ride with the Bethpage Fire Department. The countdown began at about 7:15 and ended with the lighting of Bethpage's 23 foot Christmas tree which was donated by Emil's Nursery and was decorated by dedicated Chamber volunteers Friday night. Carol after carol filled the ears of all those in attendance as Arthur Bretton led the crowd in song. Our very own Pudgies Chicken gave out candy canes to the smiling children and all eyes brightened as Santa rode down Broadway on top of the Bethpage Fire Department truck. It is the Chambers intention to each year, improve on the holiday festivities of Bethpage. This town, as most of us feel, is quite special and quite unique, as it is home to so many dedicated, hard-working people who care deeply about the town and their fellow residents. That is why the Chamber feels that the holiday times are special times here in Bethpage. They also believe that by creating a festive atmosphere, shoppers will choose to spend their holiday dollars right here...locally. Even mother nature cooperated and refrained from shedding a single tear on our ceremony although she certainly was blowing her chilly breeze through the streets.

I recently bought this mp 4 player. The features are satisfactory. The pic quality and video are also pretty good. The 16 GB inbuilt memory is more than enough to carry around a vast library (and discographies of your favorite artists if you wish) in a portable manner. For most of the people, even the headphones (in-canal, which sits snugly and comfortably in your ears, thus eliminating external noise) that comes along with the player will suffice. However for those who listen to a lot of music, the headphones, would be a bit disappointing. Not a cause of worry though..You can use any other headphones of your preference (thanks to the standard 3.5mm jack). I use a Samsung in canal earphone along with this player which gives a satisfactory enough sound quality. As many say, the player alone doesn't do the trick. Headphones are equally important. Considering safety of ear, there are features like "safe sound" and a timer which keeps track of how long you've been listening. Yeah, I almost forgot to mention the built in speaker.. Obviously, the quality in headphone is much better, but there are also those who would prefer having that extra feature. Lastly, I'd also like to appreciate Flipkart and its customer care executives for their prompt response to some queries.
Overall this is a product definitely worth buying. Thank You Flipkart.
This is my 5th mp3/mp4 player so far and it satisfied me in every aspect...
I've been using this from last 6 months and it didn't let me down..
battery backup is increased from 31.5 hours to 33 hours on mp3 songs only after i updated it with latest firmware but now i have a lot of flac files on it so plays about 23 hours continuously which is sufficient for me.
Though i m a bit depressed by Philips, as u didn't get the earphones shown on the pack and on site.. but shipped earphones are also OK.
You can almost hear every sound clearly in this set if you have a good set of headphones.. Full sound technology is good..preset equalizers are pretty effective. I use to listen a lot of metal so this is the best i ever had. Best for Metal and Jazz..
Videos are also seamless, plays without lag or something.. currently I'm using Sennheiser CX-180 earphones and the combination is unbelievable..
Overall totally value for money.
Ohh flipkart...you are just too good. I bought this on 16th afternoon and got it on 18th noon. The delivery is way better than express one.
On the product one thing is to be noticed that it is completely value for money.
-> Large touch screen
-> Awesome sound quality
The only concern is the inbuilt speaker is not so loud(I dont need though)
Its worth your hard working money.
Bought Philips GoGear Ariaz MP4 to gift it and what praises I received...but real praise goes to the gadget and the service of flipkart who were prompt in delivering the product within 2 working days. Product is up to the mark and all the specifications mentioned as it is....wonderful product and would recommend to go ahead with it....sole reason of buying it was for the in-built speaker which is rare in MP3 and MP4s.
I was a bit apprehensive if it will work on Linux or not. But it is working seamlessly on my Fedora 17 box. The software given on the Philips-CD partition of the GoGear Ariaz 16 GB installs with wine. But it is hardly needed. When connecting the device with USB, it is coming up with option of transfer and play. Working absolutely nice.

Coldplay - Mylo Xyloto
- Vancouver, British Columbia - Coldplay are a band that seem to stimulate a whole array of different reactions. Some people love them ever so dearly, while others despise them greatly. What can't be disputed is their popularity and their ability to sell records for a good decade now. Me? Well, I never hate them, but I've certainly had mixed reactions to their work. I believe them to be a band capable of so much and I continue to respect their choices to change up the vision of each album, so as not to repeat themselves too often. This adventurous nature has elicited a number of responses from me, but their last effort Viva La Vida or Death and All His Friends brought out a very positive one. Coldplay were trying new things along side guru producer Brian Eno, exploring a very earthy tone to the album. It was rock mixed with world music, electronica and even some orchestral arrangements. It was a great album and possibly the best from the band (though I am also quite attached to A Rush of Blood to the Head).

Top 10 Frisco and Little Elm Sports Stories of 2012: 3. From a Titan to a Tiger: Schotts joins major with Detroit draft selection
BY Chris O'Dell,
Published: Thursday, January 3, 2013 2:25 PM CST
Centennial head baseball coach Jason Wilson said he knew what kind of talent his starting shortstop was and where he might go in the recent MLB first-year player draft.
Senior Austin Schotts didn't last long in the event and was taken with the 121st overall pick with Detroit's third-round selection.
"We knew he was going to go real high," Wilson said. "There were numerous scouts at all our practices and batting sessions watching him."
The Tigers made Schotts the second high school player from the Metroplex taken by Detroit. Schotts joined Rockwall-Heath's Jake Thompson, who was taken in the second round, for two of the team's first three picks.
"It's every high school kid's dream," Wilson said. "It's a tremendous opportunity for [Schotts]."
Although the 5-foot-11 senior played shortstop at Centennial, Schotts is likely to change positions once he joins the Detroit organization with a switch to outfield or second base as the most likely scenario.
"I think [the outfield] is the right position for him at that level," Wilson said. "The shortstop position at that level is really tough. [Schotts] is such an athlete though that he can probably play several positions."
Wilson said he thought Schotts landed in a good spot with the Tigers and couldn't have asked for a better situation.
"[Detroit] will fit him well," he said. "Being drafted that high means they have a lot of faith in him and will probably try to get him to the majors in a few years."
Schotts, who hit .375 with six home runs during his senior campaign with Centennial, helped lead the Titans to playoff wins over Rockwall and Hillcrest before Centennial's season ended in the regional semifinals.
Interestingly enough, it was Thompson and the Hawks that spelled an end to the Titans' hopes at state.
"[Schotts and Thompson] are both really competitive," Wilson said. "They're pretty familiar with one another though. I think that will help both of them when they make that transition."
For Schotts, who became the only player from District 9-4A taken in the first 40 rounds of the draft, it was the combination of speed and power that Detroit was high on during the scouting process.
"That really sets him apart from everyone else," Wilson said.
The Tigers reached the American League Championship Series last season before losing to the Texas Rangers in six games. The team recently added slugger Prince Fielder to the lineup on a nine-year deal to boost an already solid offense. With last year's Cy Young winner in Justin Verlander still in the mix, Schotts figures to join a competitive team if he can reach the majors in the next few years.
"It shows that good things happen to good people," Wilson said.
