We would like to safeguard the information you provide to us about yourself. This Privacy Policy is designed to inform you about our practices regarding collection, use, and disclosure of information that you may provide in this portal. Use of this portal indicates to us that you have read and accepted our privacy practices, as outlined in this Privacy Policy and constitutes your consent to the same. If you have any questions or concerns regarding this, you can reach us at the contact details provided in the portal.
- Your Consent
By using this portal, you agree with the terms of this Privacy Policy. Whenever you submit information via this portal, you consent to the collection, use, and disclosure of that information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
- Active Information Collection
This portal actively collects information from its visitors by permitting them to communicate directly with us via e-mail and feedback forms. Some of the information that you submit may be personally identifiable information (that is, information that can be uniquely identified with you, such as your full name, address, e-mail address, phone number, and so on).
Some areas of this portal may require you to submit information in order for you to benefit from the specified features (such as membership subscriptions). You will be informed at each information collection point what information is required and what information is optional.
- Passive Information Collection
As you navigate through the portal, certain information can be passively collected (that is, gathered without your actively providing the information) using various technologies and means, such as navigational data collection.
This portal may use Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. An IP Address is a number assigned to your computer by your Internet service provider so you can access the Internet and is generally considered to be non-personally identifiable information, because in most cases an IP address is dynamic (changing each time you connect to the Internet), rather than static (unique to a particular user's computer). We use your IP address to diagnose problems with our server, report aggregate information, determine the fastest route for your computer to use in connecting to our portal, and administer and improve the portal.
Use and Disclosure of Information
Except as otherwise stated above, we may use your information to improve the utility of our portal, to communicate information to you (if you have requested it), for our marketing and research purposes (could be on users demographics, interests and behavior), and for providing you with the latest information for direct marketing purposes where we think, you may be interested in the products and services of some of our affiliates or third parties. We may disclose the information to respond to legal requirements; such information can be disclosed with applicable Laws and standards. Your right to choose is important to us though; so, if you do not wish to receive information about other products & services from us, you can reach us at the contact details provided in the portal.
If you have provided personally identifiable information in this portal, we may combine such information with other actively collected information unless we specify otherwise at the point of collection. We will take reasonable measures to prevent personally identifiable information from being combined with passively collected information, unless you consent otherwise.
We may disclose your personally identifiable information to other C-DAC affiliates worldwide that agree to treat it in accordance with this Privacy Policy. In addition, we may disclose your personally identifiable information to third parties, located in India and/or any other country, but only
(i) to contractors we use to support our business (e.g., fulfillment services, technical support, delivery services, and financial institutions), in which case we will require such third parties to agree to treat it in accordance with this Privacy Policy;
(ii) in connection with the sale, assignment, or other transfer of the business of this portal to which the information relates, in which case we will require any such buyer to agree to treat it in accordance with this Privacy Policy; or
(iii) Where required by applicable laws, court orders, or government regulations. In addition, we will make full use of all information acquired through this portal that is not in personally identifiable form.
Links from Other Web Sites
Web sites that have links on our portal may collect personally identifiable information about you. The data protection practices of the web sites that are linked in the portal, are not covered by this policy statement. You are advised to check the data protection policies of these third party Web sites yourself, before using those sites. Please be aware that we are not responsible for the privacy practices of any third party sites. This Privacy Statement applies solely to information collected by this portal.
We take reasonable steps to protect your personally identifiable information as you transmit your information from your computer to our portal and to protect such information from loss, misuse, and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction.
We will not use your financial information for any purpose other than to complete a transaction with you. We do not share or rent your email addresses with third parties except our agents and alliance partners. However, no data transmissions over the internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot ensure or warranty the security of any information you transmit to us via the internet, and you do so at your own risk. Once we have received your transmission, we will use our best efforts to ensure its security on our systems

What Is a Mutual Fund Load?
Mutual fund transactions can be complicated, especially with the fees and expenses that accompany the process. It's important to understand mutual fund loads, or sales charges, and exactly what they entail so you can make informed investing decisions.
A "load" is a fee charged to an investor who buys or redeems shares in a mutual fund. It is similar to the commission that investors pay when they purchase a stock. There are two general types of sales loads. If a sales load is required at purchase, it is called a "front-end" sales load; if it is charged when shares are redeemed, it is a deferred or "back-end" sales charge. The most common type of back-end sales load is a "contingent deferred sales charge" or CDSC. The amount will depend on how long an investor held the shares, and it could be nothing if they were held long enough.
Loads generally compensate brokers and/or salespeople for selling you a fund. For example, a sales load might help compensate a financial professional who spends time with you at the beginning of your relationship, learning about your objectives and helping with your investment program. A sales load could also compensate a broker for keeping in touch with you and answering any questions you have. This communication can be particularly handy for busy people whose idea of investment tracking amounts to little more than an occasional call to their financial professionals.
Funds without load fees are called "no-load funds." These funds are distributed directly by the investment company and therefore do not need to charge for brokerage services.
Despite this, all funds, even those with load charges, also have management and expense fees. Management fees pay for the administration of the fund and are usually based on a percentage of the fund's assets. There are also 12b-1 fees, or distribution fees, that compensate brokers and other sellers of mutual funds for advertising and marketing costs. These fees are typically a small percentage of the fund's assets.
Funds that charge sales loads may have lower 12b-1 fees and administration fees, so when you are deciding which type of mutual fund to purchase, it is important to review all the costs and fees involved to see which funds may work best for your investment purposes. Fees and expenses vary from one fund to the next. When assessing different mutual funds, consider that a fund with higher fees and expenses would need to generate higher returns than another fund with lower fees, because higher fees can lower your returns.
Mutual fund share prices fluctuate with market conditions. Shares, when sold, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Investments seeking to achieve higher rates of return also involve greater risk.
Mutual funds are sold by prospectus. Please consider the investment objectives, risks, charges, and expenses carefully before investing. The prospectus, which contains this and other information about the investment company, can be obtained from your financial professional. Be sure to read the prospectus carefully before deciding whether to invest.
The information in this newsletter is not intended as tax, legal, investment, or retirement advice or recommendations, and it may not be relied on for the purpose of avoiding any federal tax penalties. You are encouraged to seek guidance from an independent tax or legal professional. The content is derived from sources believed to be accurate.

Message of President James Monroe at the commencement of the first session of the 18th Congress The Monroe Doctrine Excerpts:
. . . At the proposal of the Russian Imperial Government, made through the minister of the Emperor residing here, a full power and instructions have been transmitted to the minister of the United States at St. Petersburg to arrange by amicable negotiation the respective rights and interests of the two nations on the northwest coast of this continent. A similar proposal has been made by His Imperial Majesty to the Government of Great Britain, which has likewise been acceded to. The Government of the United States has been desirous by this friendly proceeding of manifesting the great value which they have invariably attached to the friendship of the Emperor and their solicitude to cultivate the best understanding with his Government. In the discussions to which this interest has given rise and in the arrangements by which they may terminate the occasion has been judged proper for asserting, as a principle in which the rights and interests of the United States are involved, that the American continents, by the free and independent condition which they have assumed and maintain, are henceforth not to be considered as subjects for future colonization by any European powers. . . It was stated at the commencement of the last session that a great effort was then making in Spain and Portugal to improve the condition of the people of those countries, and that it appeared to be conducted with extraordinary moderation. It need scarcely be remarked that the results have been so far very different from what was then anticipated. Of events in that quarter of the globe, with which we have so much intercourse and from which we derive our origin, we have always been anxious and interested spectators. The citizens of the United States cherish sentiments the most friendly in favor of the liberty and happiness of their fellow-men on that side of the Atlantic. In the wars of the European powers in matters relating to themselves we have never taken any part, nor does it comport with our policy to do so. It is only when our rights are invaded or seriously menaced that we resent injuries or make preparation for our defense. With the movements in this hemisphere we are of necessity more immediately connected, and by causes which must be obvious to all enlightened and impartial observers. The political system of the allied powers is essentially different in this respect from that of America. This difference proceeds from that which exists in their respective Governments; and to the defense of our own, which has been achieved by the loss of so much blood and treasure, and matured by the wisdom of their most enlightened citizens, and under which we have enjoyed unexampled felicity, this whole nation is devoted. We owe it, therefore, to candor and to the amicable relations existing between the United States and those powers to declare that we should consider any attempt on their part to extend their system to any portion of this hemisphere as dangerous to our peace and safety. With the existing colonies or dependencies of any European power we have not interfered and shall not interfere. But with the Governments who have declared their independence and maintain it, and whose independence we have, on great consideration and on just principles, acknowledged, we could not view any interposition for the purpose of oppressing them, or controlling in any other manner their destiny, by any European power in any other light than as the manifestation of an unfriendly disposition toward the United States. In the war between those new Governments and Spain we declared our neutrality at the time of their recognition, and to this we have adhered, and shall continue to adhere, provided no change shall occur which, in the judgment of the competent authorities of this Government, shall make a corresponding change on the part of the United States indispensable to their security. The late events in Spain and Portugal show that Europe is still unsettled. Of this important fact no stronger proof can be adduced than that the allied powers should have thought it proper, on any principle satisfactory to themselves, to have interposed by force in the internal concerns of Spain. To what extent such interposition may be carried, on the same principle, is a question in which all independent powers whose governments differ from theirs are interested, even those most remote, and surely none of them more so than the United States. Our policy in regard to Europe, which was adopted at an early stage of the wars which have so long agitated that quarter of the globe, nevertheless remains the same, which is, not to interfere in the internal concerns of any of its powers; to consider the government de facto as the legitimate government for us; to cultivate friendly relations with it, and to preserve those relations by a frank, firm, and manly policy, meeting in all instances the just claims of every power, submitting to injuries from none. But in regard to those continents circumstances are eminently and conspicuously different. It is impossible that the allied powers should extend their political system to any portion of either continent without endangering our peace and happiness; nor can anyone believe that our southern brethren, if left to themselves, would adopt it of their own accord. It is equally impossible, therefore, that we should behold such interposition in any form with indifference. If we look to the comparative strength and resources of Spain and those new Governments, and their distance from each other, it must be obvious that she can never subdue them. It is still the true policy of the United States to leave the parties to themselves, in hope that other powers will pursue the same course. . . .

Magnet Text: Old Dogs Rule - Living Life Off The Leash
Size: 2.5" x 4.5"
Product SKU: OGA2135
Old Guys Rule was created to embrace a new breed of guys who have incredible energy, a passion for life, wisdom gained from years of experience and the time to spend doing the activities they enjoy. Old Guys Rule should be worn as a badge of honor for a life well-spent, but not nearly over.
When Don Craig asked a friend to make the first Old Guys Rule bumper sticker to honor his dad, he didn't realize what he was starting.
Don grew up in Hermosa Beach in the 50's. He learned to surf from his father, Doug, who was president of the San Onofre Surf Club and a hero to Don and his childhood pals.
As Don and his buddies matured, they came to appreciate the wisdom and counsel of Doug and his friends, Ross McAdam and Fred Casserio. In Don's circle, these elders became "The Three Wise Men", mentoring younger surfers, dispensing wisdom and supporting their aspirations.
By the 60's, Don was a well-regarded member of the surfing community. He competed for Bing Copeland, Dewey Weber and the Jacob's Surf Team. He also worked in the surf industry, initially as Quiksilver's first sales rep and later for many other popular surf brands. Don introduced Rip Curl to the U.S. market and successfully opened and ran the first U.S. Rip Curl retail store.
In early 2003, Don had some stickers made as a tribute to his dad and the two other "Wise Men". The first bumper sticker design was a surfboard running through the stacked words, Old Guys Rule. Within a week, other guys at the beach were asking for a copy of the sticker, as did some of the surf shop owners to whom Don sold product. Sensing a business opportunity, Don trademarked the phrase, "Old Guys Rule," and began selling t-shirts, stickers and hats bearing the slogan to stores.
Shortly after the company's launch into retail, Don realized that the "Old Guys Rule" motto extended beyond the surfing community to men from all walks of life who see age as a "Badge of Honor," not an impediment. The once local t-shirt company evolved into a lifestyle brand with apparel and accessories that speak to men from around the world with passions ranging from surfing, golf and grilling to hot rods, motorcycles, sports, and more.
In 2008, Old Guys Rule introduced the "Legends" Series to recognize men who wear their age with pride and celebrate their accomplishments. John Wayne and Muhammad Ali were the first to be honored with their most iconic images and sayings featured on several Old Guys Rule t- shirts. A portion of proceeds from the t-shirt sales benefited the John Wayne Cancer Foundation and the Muhammad Ali Center. Later additions to the Legends Series were Albert Einstein and the Three Stooges.
In addition to contributing to the aforementioned charities, Old Guys Rule has also been involved in raising money for the Wounded Warrior Project.

Student Loan Calculator
[Skip to Content]
Student Loan Consolidation and Debt Payoff Calculator
The Student Loan Consolidation and Debt Payoff calculator applies two simple principles to paying off high-interest debt. First, consolidate your existing student loans and second use your payment savings to accelerate the payoff of your higher interest non-student debt. The student loan payment savings is applied to one credit card or loan until that balance is paid in full. Then the entire payment that was going to that debt is then applied each month to your next credit card or loan. This continues until you have rolled through all of your balances and your non-student loan debt is paid in full.

Types of Pulley Systems
If you've ever tried to lift a pail of water, you've probably seen the pulley system in action. Pulleys are extremely useful tools for everything from household appliances to heavy industrial machinery. Different kinds of pulley systems are classified according to their amount of motion. Some types have fixed axes, while others have movable axes. Some common uses of pulleys are listed below.
two-wheel pulley
Pulleys are complex structures with thin-walled and thick-walled sections. Therefore, they require specific forging designs. The tool concept for the production of pulleys is shown in Figure 11.6. Using the generated tool, the pulley can be forged into different shapes. Process parameters must be optimized based on material, surface quality and metallographic analysis.
Pulleys are wheels mounted on shafts. Its main function is to assist the movement of heavy objects. A single-wheel pulley can change the direction of the force, enabling a person to pull heavy objects. A dual-wheel pulley distributes the weight evenly across both wheels, allowing it to lift the same weight with half the effort.
The mechanical advantage of a two-wheel pulley is that it reduces the force required by about half. A 100 kg object can be lifted with a force of 500 Newtons. The mechanical advantage of a pulley with two wheels is twice that of a single-wheel pulley. However, care should always be taken when using two-wheel pulleys.
Two-wheel pulleys can be fixed or movable. A single wheel pulley can only change direction when the load is placed on one side of the wheel. Two-wheel pulleys change direction when lifting a load, requiring half the force. Live wheels are better for heavier loads. The movable pulley can be adjusted with the load, and the load distribution is more uniform. Active pulleys can be used with single-rope or two-wheel pulleys.
A pulley system with two wheels is called a compound pulley. This type of pulley system has a complex design that reduces the force required to move the load. Two-wheel pulleys are common in industrial and construction environments. These pulleys require a lot of space to install and operate. Additionally, they require regular maintenance to avoid wear and tear.
composite pulley
Compound pulleys are used to increase lift. One fixed pulley is attached to the overhead while the other fixed pulley is attached to the load. This setup minimizes the force required to lift weights, allowing you to lift heavier weights. There are several different types of compound pulleys, each with their own strengths and weaknesses. Below are some examples of their application. Some of the most common are listed below.
Composite pulleys are usually made from two different types of wheels. The first one is fixed and secure. The second type, movable, is attached to something that moves. The third type, compound pulley, is a combination of a movable pulley and a fixed pulley. Below are three types of comparisons. The table below compares them and explains their advantages and disadvantages. Composite pulleys are the most versatile of the three.
The number of sheave segments that make up the composite sheave system increases the mechanical advantage of the system. Each segment adds one percent of the total weight, and the ideal mechanical advantage is two or more. So a compound pulley with four segments will lift three-quarters of the weight. This is because the force applied to the load is multiplied by four. The result is a better boost.
While composite pulleys have many uses, they are most commonly used on larger sailboats. These pulleys work by changing the direction of the control wire or by changing the mechanical force of the rope. They also make it easier to lift heavier objects. Composite pulleys are more expensive than simple pulleys, so consider your needs before buying. The advantages of composite pulleys outweigh the disadvantages.
A basic compound pulley is a device consisting of two wheels with fixed points. Ropes are looped around the wheels and are used to lift heavy objects. When you pull on the rope, the rope pulls the two wheels closer together. Serious injury could result if this equipment is installed incorrectly. Never exceed the lifting capacity of pulleys and other safety devices that may be attached. When using pulleys, be sure to follow the instructions on the mounting hardware to avoid accidents.
Fixed pulley
Moving pulleys and fixed pulleys are different types of mechanical devices. The movable pulley moves with the object it is used to lift. Because it attaches to the object it is used to lift, it is great for lifting heavy objects. These devices are used in construction cranes and multipurpose elevators. There are many different types of pulleys, and their uses vary widely. Below is a brief overview of these devices.
The simplest pulley set consists of a wheel that is mounted on the ceiling. A rope is attached at one end and a person pulls at the other end. The rope is strong enough to keep a person standing while lifting weights. It takes about 200 Newtons of force to lift a 20 kg weight. In contrast, a movable pulley requires a force of 1000N, which makes it easier to lift heavy objects.
Fixed pulleys are another common lifting device. They work by using ropes and slotted wheels attached to the object to be lifted. These devices are convenient to use because they are easy to set up. Moving the scroll wheel doesn't change direction, so it's easier to move objects without putting too much pressure on the back. Unlike a moving rope, a moving object will feel much lighter than its actual weight.
Fixed pulleys are widely used in construction and agriculture. Fixed pulleys can help lift supplies and equipment from scaffolding. These items are often heavy and difficult to lift directly. Fixed pulleys at the top of the scaffolding will allow people at the bottom to lift objects more easily. As a result, those at the bottom are less stressed and more productive. Fixed pulleys will save time and money compared to moving ropes.
Composite pulleys combine fixed and movable pulleys to increase the power of movement. A compound pulley system uses both types of pulleys and enables a person to change direction by reversing the direction of a force. The compound pulley system will save time and effort as the user only has to put in half the effort. Unlike moving ropes, composite pulleys are easy to adjust and are the most versatile system on the market.
Blocks and tackles
A pulley block system is a rope hoist that uses a set of pulleys mounted on a frame. The blocks are arranged in a row, and the threaded rope is called a pulley. Pulley systems help amplify the tension of the rope and are common in sailboats, cranes and drilling rigs. However, these systems are not without drawbacks.
The pulley pulley system can be equipped with as many pulleys as required. This method allows a person to lift heavy objects. The pulley block system can contain the required number of pulleys to achieve the desired height. The main disadvantage of pulley systems is that they create a lot of friction on the pulley shaft.
Pulley systems use two types of pulleys. A movable pulley is attached to the load, allowing it to move with the load. On the other hand, fixed pulleys are fixed on fixed points. Therefore, a pulley block system may consist of multiple pulleys mounted on a shaft. For example, the two pulleys attached to the shaft each have their own mechanical advantages.
Several types of tackle systems have been developed in recent centuries. The most basic is the gun mount, which uses two pulleys to lift the load. The mechanical advantage of such a system is two to three times the distance required by the rope to move the load. Depending on how they're assembled, the system can lift 400 pounds with 80 or 100 pounds of force.
Another type of pulley is a combination of multiple wheels. The wheels on pulleys are supported by a housing or frame. The chain is attached to the pulley, and the rope is pulled to lift it. A combined pulley system will have multiple wheels. As the load increases, the force on the pulley also increases. This approach is generally more expensive than intercept and intercept systems.

On Sept. 14, the Idaho State Department of Agriculture confirmed an unvaccinated 2-year-old gelding at a private facility in Canyon County tested positive for West Nile virus. He presented with weakness, mild muscle fasciculations (involuntary twitching), and several days of ataxia (incoordination), beginning on Sept. 9. The horse is recovering.
EDCC Health Watch is an Equine Network marketing program that utilizes information from the Equine Disease Communication Center (EDCC) to create and disseminate verified equine disease reports. The EDCC is an independent nonprofit organization that is supported by industry donations in order to provide open access to infectious disease information.
Read More: Advances in Vaccines
West Nile virus is transmitted to horses via bites from infected mosquitoes. Not all infected horses show clinical signs, but those that do can exhibit:
- Flulike signs, where the horse seems mildly anorexic and depressed;
- Fine and coarse muscle and skin fasciculation (involuntary twitching);
- Hyperesthesia (hypersensitivity to touch and sound);
- Changes in mentation (mental activity), when horses look like they're daydreaming or "just not with it";
- Occasional drowsiness;
- Propulsive walking (driving or pushing forward, often without control); and
- Spinal signs, including asymmetrical weakness; and
- Asymmetrical or symmetrical ataxia.
West Nile virus has no cure, however, some horses can recover with supportive care. Equine mortality rates can reach 30-40%.
Studies have shown that vaccines can be effective WNV prevention tools. Horses vaccinated in past years need an annual booster shot, but veterinarians might recommend two boosters annually—one in the spring and another in the fall—in areas with prolonged mosquito seasons. In contrast, previously unvaccinated horses require a two-shot vaccination series in a three- to six-week period. It takes several weeks for horses to develop protection against the disease following complete vaccination or booster administration.
In addition to vaccinations, owners should work to reduce mosquito population and breeding areas and limit horses' mosquito exposure by:
- Removing stagnant water sources;
- Dumping, cleaning, and refilling water buckets and troughs regularly;
- Keeping animals inside during insect feeding times (typically early in the morning and evening); and
- Applying mosquito repellents approved for equine use.

Why Do Christians Believe?
I don't believe Jesus arose from the dead. I don't believe the historical evidence is enough for a fair minded person to believe this either. I don't think Christians believe in Jesus' resurrection because of the evidence anyway. They believe it because someone they trusted told them Jesus arose.
Several thinkers have offered reasons why people are believers. Marx argued religion is a numbing drug that the rich and powerful use to manipulate the common person. Freud argued that people believe because of a longing desire for a heavenly father figure. Nietzsche argued that religion is for weak people who feel the need for it. These are psychologically based reasons for why someone may believe. What I want to do here is different. I want to trace why a person became a believer--a Christian--in the first place. I think the mind is so impressionable that we have a very strong tendency to believe what we are first taught to believe, and with that belief as our presumption, we have a very strong tendency to argue that it's correct. In doing this, smart people can find reasons to continue believing even if the evidence is against what they believe.
From my own experience and that of nearly every Christian I know, this is the case. Think about this for a moment, Christian. Think back to when you first became a Christian. Someone you liked, or cared for, or trusted, told you about Jesus and his resurrection. With me I never heard anything different from people. Everyone who ever talked to me about it believed. The people who told you about Jesus were believable. And if necessary they pointed you to some books which you read which confirmed what they were telling you, including the Bible. The Bible confirmed some things for you too, that you felt the need for forgiveness. It also tells a wonderful story about a God who loved you in that he became a man and died so you could be forgiven. The gospel offers hope, forgiveness and peace. It also offers a relationship with God. You also seemed to notice that when you prayed, things happened, which confirmed for you God answered your prayers (although people who regularly read their daily Horoscopes claim they are accurate too). Then you got involved in a community of believers who encouraged you and suggested other books to read, which further confirmed your faith.
At this point you had adopted a set of control beliefs which subsequently filtered all of the evidence you were presented with. You wanted it to be true. You wanted to meet this God of yours in heaven. And you were comforted in believing you would be spared from hell when you died.
Now there are people like C.S. Lewis and G.K. Chesterton who started out being skeptical and became believers, but I'm not talking about these people. On the other side of the fence there are plenty of others who started out as believers like me, and then became non-believers. This shows people come to their own conclusions, that's all. It says nothing to you about whether those of us who changed our minds had good reasons for doing so, apart from looking at our reasons. As such, the fact that people change their minds can't be used as evidence for you to believe or not, apart from looking at our reasons. But I'm speaking to the overwhelming number of Christians in this world, not the exceptions.
You believed prior to examining the evidence. You believed because someone you trusted told you a wonderful sounding story. Never mind for a moment that the person who told you this story neglected to tell you of the ugliness to be found in the Bible. Nevertheless, you believed based upon what someone told you whom you trusted. And that best explains why you are in the denomination you are presently in too, although you might be in one because of someone else you trusted, or something you read too. But this is merely switching rooms in the same house.
And that person whom you trusted believed for the same reasons. Someone he or she trusted told him or her the gospel story which was also believed prior to examining the evidence. I argue this chain of one person passing on that story to the next generation stretches back to the first century, too. But as we get back into the ancient superstitious past, people believed in lots of divinities and miracles based upon no evidence at all—none.
Okay so far?
Here's the deal. You believe based upon a person you trusted and in the story itself. In doing so it brings you a comforting (but delusional) relationship with God, which includes forgiveness, friends, and saves you from hell. And from that day forward you filter all of the evidence through your faith.
With such a wonderful story you want it to be true. You're afraid to doubt for fear that you might end up in hell. So you look for ways to confirm that it's true and that it can be historically verified, even though history cannot verify such things. So you read books that mainly confirms your belief, and surprise, you find that your belief can be justified. How many times when you doubt will you read what a skeptic writes? Not many Christians I know will do this. Instead, if they are having doubts they'll turn to the trusted writings of a Christian apologist.
Only a few Christians will bother to read blogs like this one because they know in advance what we're arguing for is false, of the devil, and that we are willfully in denial of the gospel truth. Christians don't trust us to learn the truth about such things. We're just wrong. When Christians read what we say here at DC they only do so to prove us wrong. They already know in advance we're wrong. Christians simply don't trust us to be correct.
So when it comes to the evidence of the resurrection, Christians think the evidence shows Jesus arose because they are already predisposed to believe it, and they likewise overlook the evidence against the Christian faith.
An article Former_Fundy stumbled across by Lewis Rambo gives four major components of religious conversion:
1. Religious conversion is deeply personal and takes place almost always through interaction with another human.
"people who convert or change religions usually do so through personal contact, and not through impersonal methods of communication, although that happens sometimes."
2. Religious conversion involves being identified with a whole new sociological group.
"Secondly, what is very clear is that virtually all religious groups emphasize the importance of relationships with the leader of the group, and with members of the group. One of the things that is very striking when you go into a religious group is that there is enormous affection. People in some groups will even address one another as brother and sister, or other terms that communicate that relationships are very important."
3. Religious conversion involves a completely new way of viewing the world.
"they now have an interpretative system that applies to anything and everything."
4. Religious conversion involves a totally new way of viewing one's self and one's role in the world.
"Role is very powerful in shaping peoples' perceptions and behaviors. When people become a member of a new religious movement, or when they become a passionate Roman Catholic, they have a new perception of themselves that often empowers them to do things, to believe things, and to feel things that they have not have been able to prior to that time."

What is the Black Iron Prison? Philip K. Dick said that the perfect description is that of a timeforsaken place, blending past, present, and future, buildings cast in wicked black—where the "alien" from the sci-fi movies of that name might call home. As for my own vision of it, it was nothing like earth of the waking mind ever was, not at all; my memory of the place was distinctly of an otherworldly landscape. It had a consistent aesthetic, between each time I visited, though I think it may have been that the buildings and such details might have changed between showings. PKD also said that this was the true nature of the world, that we do not perceive the 'Prison has always had us caged within it. Which makes sense, why he thought of it in that light, for he saw it superimposed on our everyday reality. But like I said, I had a different tack: I looked out the window and I didn't recognize anything, like I had been transported to… well, I wasn't allowed to think it while I was there: I had been transported to Hell. No other word fits.
Was it just a hallucination? If it were purely one person's imagination, that doesn't explain why other people saw some version of it, too. Is it then something like an archetype, something hardwired into the human mind, if not brain—maybe the vision of it is hidden in everyone's mental structure? Eternity seems to be some factor that is intrinsic in it: past, present, and future as one in the architecture, as Dick noted. I have described this elsewhere, that in Bosch's Garden of Earthly Delights, in the third panel, "Hell", there is in the far back a large building. I was in that building. That was where I was in the 'Prison, that exact place—what Bosch had entitled, "Hell". If you look closely, too, you will notice that the building is partly in ruins, not a completely concrete object. How about that? It is a ghost building, a building only visible in a nightmare.
What do we make of Hell? Why is it that the world was supposedly locked behind the structures of it, then? As for it being the "bad place" of the afterworld, Hell wasn't made by God. It is a perverse and twisted place, whose architecture is of pure evil; God has virtually no part in it, except for the fact that it originally was part of Heaven. Called the "ruined part of Heaven", when Satan was cast from above, the place he and his angels had been residing they tore from greater Heaven and was given to the fallen angels as a separate realm. The reminiscence of Eternity is that timelessness one perceives. Even if, as it is written, it too shall one day have an end in the lake of fire. From the scale that Heaven operates on, it is my understanding that that ruined part of Heaven could easily envelop the whole of the world, whatever those dimensions might be as a noosphere, what I call the Halospace.
Is it real? If we understand reality as a shared experience, then it is real in that limited sense. Or perhaps in another limited sense, it is that archetypical representation of the dark side within human beings in general. If you will not allow a spiritual realm to exist, one might imagine it to be something like a place you go in dreams, or nightmares. Or could they be common hallucinations, like everyone seeing snakes when they take a specific psychoactive drug? It is a vision of darkness, in any case. It is a vision of all that is wrong in the world, if you ever do experience it, a merciless mood that makes up the stagnant air, the sensation: "abandon all hope ye who enter here". But what if it were real, what would that mean? What if it is not completely in the eye of the beholder, but has separate existence apart from the observer? How does that affect the world? How would it affect your world?
If you wish deeper than what is writ here, faith is required of you, and reason. For it is not the end of faith when its object is plainly true; there will always be further that on that might be speculated upon, based on where reason seems to lead. And what is faith? "Faith is taking the first step even when you don't see the whole staircase." [Martin Luther King, Jr.] A leap of faith and a leap of insight are like fraternal twins. One may, in fact, use or confuse one for the other. Now, do we believe in the objective reality of the Black Iron Prison? For some, the question seems easy to answer: there is no place where it actually could exist, for it can only be a mental construct. But as we have said before, if it a shared mental construct—which at some level affects our psychology—if all of us follow the rails it puts down in our minds in a consistent way, then does it not in some way actually and really exist? Could we all of us fooled?
The 'Prison is made of iron. Why is it iron, when we're talking about it being in a shadow dimension, with no true substance to it at all? Perhaps that it is specifically black is the clue. Iron was perhaps the most useful metal that human beings have ever found. In itself, there is no evil—but black iron, that which is put to dark purpose, iron would be then the opposite of that utility, being instead being wielded of nefarious mind. It is then become the all purpose material of evil. That is the Black Iron. And prison? Perhaps you have heard, of this life: you can't win, you can't break even, and there is no way out of the game. Even without a strictly physical form, the Black Iron Prison is so named correctly. But surely, there are parts of the world, both human and of nature, that are not elements of Hell, right? How is it that PKD said it is the true structure of the world? And others have said it, too, that we are completely enclosed by it, the whole of the world is imprisoned… It could be that it all is truly is in the eye of the beholder.
Philip K. saw the BIP, and then saw his freedom from it, the "real world's" freedom from it, in 1974 when President Nixon resigned. The king deposed without violence by the work of two artisans—or were they modern day knights? Yes, the world was freed, but only from the point of view of PKD. For I know that I myself witnessed the BIP years after he had left the world. And one fine day in May, 1991, I saw the world freed of the 'Prison, myself, on the other side of the dream barrier: in my mind's eye did I see all souls escape. The 'Prison is gone for everyone, from my point of view. That means, however, that other people may be able to see it still. The Halospace has a weird way of working. But let's think about this: Phil said that the Black Iron Prison is, at the guts of it, a system of control, a means of power for the archons of this world. That would be the Devil and his own, for Satan once tempted Christ with the rule of all the world, and he couldn't have offered what was not his.
Phil thought, after he saw the mighty king deposed, that the saw the 'Prison regroup and reformulate itself in the gap that had been left. But it was not that which he saw happen—not completely. The hole that had been punched in it was a permanent one, and cover it up as they will, it is still there. Walt Disney is God. Yea, verily. But again, not everyone is free of the 'Prison from their point of view. The Black Iron Prison, ultimately, is most rationally perceived as a psychological construct, which limits our actions and our perspective(s) on the world. (Thus its ultimate reality.) What Phil and I saw in visions, and others, can be compared to a nice visual graph of a mathematical function. The real work of such a graph is in the equations that define it. That's where the numbers are crunched. What is the Black Iron Prison, down where the rubber hits the road, where the functions live? It's Hell. Yes, what we initially started with. But more precisely, it is the idea of Hell. And everybody has one.
Therefore, the rule of Hell over the world was broken in the minds of Philip K. Dick and me (and most likely others). And if you are reading this right now, its hold on you, too, is being punctured. Understand that the freedom afforded you is not to go wild, party all the time, and not to do a speck of work. It is not a freedom of the hedonistic kind. As above, the 'Prison is a psychological construct: the freedom is to free your mind. It is a freedom from fear. It is freedom to love. There is no specific rule to follow, except maybe the one common to basically all religions: love your neighbor as yourself. Otherwise, it is a freedom from the rules, too. And if you hadn't guessed, maybe give a shout-out to Jesus, since it was he who set us free… And listen, we're all of us neighbors to each other, especially these days, when distance is no factor in how we are all just that. And to love? Don't you know how? Love is so simple, we'll never understand it. That doesn't mean we shouldn't try.

Where can I take my 13-year-old to sample New York's best food without breaking the bank?
Is it possible a 13-year old could discern the different flavorings in Salumeria Rosi's charcuterie?
Dear Ask Gael:
Like his mother, my son loves to eat. I am trying to get him to appreciate my love of food. Where can we go that is less pricey than WD50?
Antoinette Fairy
Salumeria Rosi's window display shows the vast goodies inside.
Dear Ms Fairy,
It would take more than one visit for your hungry 13-year-old to taste and discern different seasonings and textures in the range of classic Italian salumi at Cesare Caselli's Salumeria Rosi but that would be a challenge. Take two friends so you can share. Move on to the escarole salad, Brussels sprouts or asparagus, the chef's signature pontormo, soft scrambled egg salad with pork cheek. The lasagna portion is tiny – just a taste each for four. Our favorite pasta is the rigatoni amatriciana. Share a single sparerib or a special, perhaps meatballs on polenta. Two cheeses at the end. A seedling will open soon on Madison at 72nd Street but I suspect it will be fancier and more expensive. 283 Amsterdam Avenue between 74th and 75th Street.
Skate from Benoit is a study in classics.
Before you immerse him in molecular prestidigitation, I hope you've let your prodigy work out on the classics. I'd take him to lunch at Benoit or La Mangeoire for country and classic dishes or for charcuterie at Bar Boulud from French-trained veterans. Order the poached egg on frisée with lardoons, snails with crouton hats, classic skate in brown butter with lemony smashed potatoes from the new menu of Philippe Bertineau at Benoit. 60 West 55th Street between Fifth and Sixth Avenues.
At Le Mangoire where Christian Delouvrier is now in charge, give the kid a lesson in how glorious foie gras can be, simply poached, silken and pink under a tiara of blond fat. You've missed the cassoulet season –but you might try the rabbit leg stewed in a ragout of white wine, tomato and terragon. 1008 Second Avenue between 53 and 54th Streets.
The foie gras at La Mangeoire is topped with a spray of greenery.
At Bar Boulud focus on the amazing varieties of terrines and pâtés. Daniel Boulud hired a chef from Paris' most prestigious traiteur to teach his kitchen how. 1900 Broadway between 63rd and 64th Streets.
Check out RedFarm (529 Hudson Street between Charles and Tenth Street) and Wong (7 Cornelia Street between West 4th Street and Bleecker Street) to see what creative genius and local products can do with Chinese and pan-Asian accents. Empellón Cocina (105 First Avenue between Sixth and Seventh Streets) is an evening with genius too. I would space out this immersion in sensual bliss lest the kid get hooked on eating too much.

It's fall.
It is! Today leaves were falling, and I got to wear my red Mary-esque coat, and it was windy...I love it. Love it.
When I was walking my dog a TOTAL Arthur episode took place. My poor baby (I am not totally heartless and tactless when it comes to animals) started choking on someone's trash. Litterbugs suck.
soccer dad: Look son, that girl is taking pictures with a tripod and everything!
little boy: Whoa! What are you taking pictures of?
girl about to hijack the next car she sees and drive to new york: Um...cars that go by. It's for school.
I really need cue cards for these types of situations.
