Series: Evolution Basics (48 entries)
Written by BioLogos Fellow of Biology Dennis Venema, this series of posts is intended as a basic introduction to the science of evolution for non-specialists.
Are We Genetically Predisposed to Believe in God?
This entry was originally posted on February 13, 2010. While the question of evolutionary predisposition toward religious belief may be challenging, Christians need not see it as threatening. In fact, this is actually a Pauline notion that is explored in Romans 1, where Paul claims that it is in mankind's nature to "know God".
Stochastic Grace
I was raised in a household of atheists. My parents were card-carrying members of the American Communist Party, and therefore the atheism in my household was quite close to the militant anti-theism of the so-called "new atheists".
A Plea to My Shepherds
... I would exhort these, my fellow conservative evangelical shepherds and thinkers, to set aside all reticence and fear, emerge from anonymity, and storm the forum of discourse, engaging this most pressing matter with vigor, equanimity, and humility. In doing so, know upfront that there will be few handrails to guide; you will not be building upon an extensive precedence of published conservative thought.
Evolution and Christian Faith Grantees Announced
Congratulations to the 37 winners of the Evolution & Christian Faith (ECF) grants competition! ECF is a new BioLogos program designed to support projects and network-building among scholars, church leaders, and parachurch organizations.
Evolution, the Enlightenment, and Worldviews
In this video conversation, N.T. Wright discusses how the Enlightenment worldview -- which clearly separates God from the world -- has impacted our view of Scripture, and why cleaning the "spectacles" through which we view the world can help us see both Scripture and the world more clearly.
Where are the Transitional Fossils?
A common argument leveled against the theory of evolution is that scientists have not been able to produce transitional fossils that show the change of one species into another. In this podcast, we address a common misconception about what transitional fossils actually are.
Made in the Image of God: Human Values and Genomics
Genes and physiology are seen as something different from "us" and "our mind," and they seem to be controlling us, so we can't even change our mind. Humans are presented as pawns of their biology, puppets dancing to the tune of their genetic masters.
Does Evolution Compromise Human Morality?
Once we have a scientific hypothesis for how something exists, it is tempting to make the philosophical inference that this is also why it exists.
Why Strict Atheism Is Unscientific
Do you believe in God? If a cadre of outspoken, strong atheists wrote a litmus test for scientists, that might very well be question #1.
Can Science Ever Know Enough?
To say something is poetic is not to declare it ultimately untrue, futile and meaningless—it is to say it is more profound and meaningful and true than many other modes of expression.
Willing to be Wrong
The debate is often not about evidence, but about making sure that others do not transgress our interpretive boundaries and insist that we're wrong. We've bitten from the tree of knowledge and we love its taste.
Series: Decoding ENCODE (8 entries)
The BioLogos Foundation explains to the findings of the Encyclopedia of DNA Elements (ENCODE) project and responds to the claims that its discoveries challenge the theory of evolution, especially regarding so-called "junk DNA".
Denisovans, Humans and the Chromosome 2 Fusion
The Denisovans, an extinct hominid group that interbred with modern humans, made the news again lately with the publication of a more detailed study of their genome. One of the many interesting findings was that the Denisovans share the same chromosome 2 fusion that modern humans have.
Series: Divine Action in the World (5 entries)
In this talk, Professor Plantinga addresses the fact that many contemporary thinkers—including many theologians—believe that God cannot perform miracles, providentially guide history, or interact in the lives of people, as these activities would be contrary to science. Plantinga, on the other hand, makes the case that this popular view is mistaken; excluding divine action in the world is not a central feature of natural science itself, but a philosophical or theological preference that has been added on to science (and can just as readily be removed). Plantinga concludes that it is completely logical to accept the miracles of the Bible and support contemporary science.
David Lack and Darwin's Finches
Considering the immense popularity of "Darwin's finches", it is quite surprising to learn that Charles Darwin himself had very little to say about them. In fact, it was actually David Lack, one century later, who conducted the critical research that immortalized the finches in biology textbooks and popular lore.
Series: The Human Fossil Record (19 entries)
In this series, James Kidder provides an intriguing study on transitional fossils and the evolutionary history of modern humans. He begins by discussing the fossil record, explaining how new forms are classified. He then explains the physically distinguishing trait of humankind—bipedalism. From the discovery of Ardipithecus, the earliest known hominin, to the australopithecines, the most prolific hominin, Kidder focuses on the discovery, the anatomy, and the interpretation of these ancestral remains.
Gracious Dialogue
Our desire to engage in gracious dialogue with fellow believers who reject biological evolution has been receiving increased attention in both the Christian and secular press. More importantly, we are being joined in this reconciling project by our brothers and sisters in Christ who have often been defined primarily as our "opponents".
Series: Science and the Bible (22 entries)
This ongoing series written by historian Ted Davis begins with a brief synopsis of his personal background, and then goes on to reveal his passion for debunking "the now-common view that the history of science and Christianity is one of ongoing, inevitable conflict."

WAUWATOSA, WI (WTAQ) - Folks in Wauwatosa had heavy hearts on Christmas Day, as police pursued what they called "multiple investigative leads" in Monday's murder of officer Jennifer Sebena.
She was found shot to death around 5 a.m., two hours after she failed to respond to a radio call from a dispatcher.
The state Justice Department is heading up the investigation. There were no suspects at last word, and 'Tosa Police have asked for the public's help.
Wauwatosa shares its eastern border with the city of Milwaukee – and until now, the community of 46,000 has never had a police officer killed on duty in the department's 90-year history. The police station's flag was at half-staff on Christmas.
Numerous people have left comments on a Facebook page dedicated to the 30-year-old Sebena – ranging from those who used to work with her at Kohl's Department Stores and U.S. Cellular to strangers who thanked her for service in law enforcement.
Some also left messages for her widower, Benjamin Sebena, a Marine who served twice in Iraq and was wounded in a mortar attack that killed a friend.
Jennifer Sebena would have celebrated her second anniversary on the 'Tosa police force next month. She had been on solo patrols since July. Her probation had been delayed due to a training injury, and she had completed her probation just last month.

How can we re-frame tax policy to make people happier about paying taxes and/or spending pro-socially?
We already require people to pay taxes, both for their own good and for the good of society as a whole. Michael Norton's talk, everyday experience, and our tribal evolutionary history suggest that pro-social spending makes us happier. Yet, many people hate paying taxes, possibly (as per Rory Sutherland's talk) because of the way tax policy is perceived or structured, or because they hate the lack of control as to where their money goes.
If you think social policies should be structured in such a way as to give the greatest happiness to the greatest number of people, then is there a way to structure tax policy in such a way to make people happier about paying taxes and/or spending pro-socially?
For example, maybe allowing (or requiring) people to pay some percentage of their taxes (beyond what they pay to the general fund) on some pre-approved set of necessary social programs, but allowing people to choose which ones, could be a policy that would promote pro-social behavior, and thereby produce happier and tighter-knit communities, nations, etc.
Such a policy would, in fact, be less restrictive than either taxation or education, both of which we already require. We don't allow selfish behavior (not paying taxes, remaining ignorant) in either of those cases, because we understand that pro-social laws and policies are necessary for society to function at all.
Policies like this are particularly necessary right now in the US, for example, where the country is extremely divided politically. This could also get the Mitt Romneys of the world to gain an appreciation of the interdependence that allows them to become and remain wealthy.
So, given that pro-social spending makes people happy (a la Michael Norton's talk) and given that re-framing where money goes can make people happier about paying money (as per Rory Sutherland's talk), how would you structure taxes so that people would be happier about paying them?

Apr 26 2012: I'm curious if compelling someone to be generous negates happiness. If you give someone (or some government) $X without being coerced, the assumption here is that you will receive a certain amount of happiness. But what if someone says you HAVE to give that same $X? Does the requirement to give impact the amount of happiness you get from the giving?

Our East Texas Salvation Army bell ringer is officially a world record holder. Saturday night, Andre Thompson was awarded the golden bell for his record breaking 105 hours of bell ringing. The manager of that Walgreens on Rieck Road and Broadway Ave., in Tyler, was also granted a golden bell for his support.
Two other bell ringers tied for the world record, one in California, the other in Minnesota. Andre says he has been talking with the Minnesota man and hopes to meet him someday.
"Like I said I can do all things through Christ that strengthens me, so I mean I didn't doubt it, but I really appreciate what helped me make it through was the constant encouraging from the surrounding people in Tyler Texas and the surrounding cities," Andre Thompson, the East Texas world record holder, said.
Andre's kettle has earned more than $13,000 to date.

Because of the change in methodology in 1994, many of the estimates from the 1993 and earlier NHSDAs are not comparable to estimates from the 1994 and 1995 NHSDAs. Since it is important to describe long-term trends in drug use accurately, an adjustment procedure was developed and applied to the pre-1994 estimates. This adjustment uses the 1994 split sample design to estimate the magnitude of the impact of the new methodology for each drug category. To improve the precision of the adjustment used for low-prevalence drugs, data from the large 1993 sample were combined with the smaller 1994-A sample (both used the "old" questionnaire). Essentially, if the new methodology is estimated to produce a 20% higher prevalence rate for the use of a particular drug by a demographic group, then estimates based on the old methodology (for that drug) are adjusted upward by 20%. A more complete description of the adjustment method is given in Appendix 2.
Readers need to be aware that all 1979-93 data shown in this report are different from previously published NHSDA estimates for 1979-93. Because the adjustments were developed from sample survey data, they are subject to sampling error and, therefore, may in some cases introduce additional variation into trends. This is particularly true for estimates of rare behaviors and for small subgroups.

The biggest cloud now hanging over Nortel Networks Corp. is what will happen to chief executive Frank Dunn.
This is a legitimate question in the wake of Nortel's decision Monday to put CFO Doug Beatty and controller Michael Gollogly on paid leave — a move that surprised investors and caused Nortel shares to tumble 19%, eliminating much of the lustre the telecom equipment maker has gained in recent months.
At the heart of Mr. Dunn's future is the "independent" review being conducted by an audit committee headed up by former Royal Bank of Canada CEO John Cleghorn, which is looking into the company's financial statements for the past four years.
If the audit committee discovers serious financial problems, they will have to dig into what role Mr. Dunn played. After all, he was Nortel's chief financial officer from 1999 to 2001 before he became CEO.
If the audit committee finds relatively minor issues — something that several analysts speculated yesterday — then one has to question why Nortel's board and Mr. Dunn felt it was necessary to make Mr. Beatty and Mr. Gollogly walk the plank. Even if both executives are welcomed back into the fold, their reputations have certainly been impaired. More serious is the possibility that Nortel made a serious strategic error that may have prompted investors to panic for no good reason.
"I don't know how you put these guys back on the payroll after the crap that has unfolded, unless you are trying to protect Dunn," said forensic and investigative accountant Al Rosen. "How did he get appointed CEO in the first place? Why hasn't he told these guys to clean up the damn mess?"
Nortel hasn't said very much. But we do know the five-member audit committee, which includes Mr. Cleghorn and Air Canada chairman Robert Brown, launched its review last October after Nortel started its own accounting review in July.
As part of the process, the audit committee hired Washington-based Wilmer Cutler Pickering LLP as its advisor. Wilmer Cutler is a large, high-profile firm that, among other things, specializes in securities enforcement. If the audit committee did not believe there was the possibility of something serious emerging, why would it hire a big U.S. law firm? Why wouldn't it hire a local firm such as Torys or McCarthy Tetrault?
According to its Web site, Wilmer Cutler assists "clients in responding to informal inquiries as well as formal SEC … investigations. This includes working with the SEC … staff in the course of its fact-finding. In that context, we present factual, legal, and policy arguments either to persuade the staff not to recommend enforcement proceedings, or to persuade the agency not to authorize such proceedings."
Wilmer Cutler also says it has worked on SEC enforcement matters involving high-profile insider trading matters and accounting practices.
Heading up the firm's securities practice is William McLucas, who spent eight years as the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission's director of enforcement. During his tenure, he led the division's staff in a number of investigations and enforcement actions. This included the SEC's case against junk-bond dealer Michael Milken.
In other words, Mr. McLucas is not a lightweight. He is a securities "robo-cop" who clearly liked his job with the SEC. For Nortel to hire Wilmer Cutler and Mr. McLucas's services suggests the audit committee wants to ensure it has the big guns on its side if a major problem comes to light.
This is an important consideration when one remembers that the most valuable asset a person such as Mr. Cleghorn possesses is his reputation. The last thing he wants to suffer through is an accounting scandal on his watch.
"If you were a big boy like John Cleghorn and you think of yourself as a very important person and something bad happens to a company, you want the best," said an analyst who wished not to be named. "You will go to a Washington-based law firm and get the lead partner who has got experience in such matters that may involve the SEC."
Anyone looking for quick answers to Nortel's accounting woes will be disappointed. Given developments this week, the role being played by the audit committee and Wilmer Cutler, this is going to be a drawn out process that may not produce any answers for a long, long time.

This is a beautiful kitchen cart. The wood matches my kitchen cabinets nearly perfectly and the cart is sturdy. I purchased this product to use as a microwave cart and it seems fine for that purpose. However, this product needs to be assembled. Not being handy myself, I hired someone to put the cart together for me. He has put many things together (being a handyman and a contractor) and he said that this cart was the most difficult kit he has ever assembled. The directions are poorly written and confusing. Also, the wood needs to be treated a special wood oil to preserve it. The contractor was so frustrated, he called the company to complain about the poorly written directions. If you buy this product, be prepared for a difficult and frustrating experience assembling your cart. I'm glad I finally got my cart, but if I had known how hard it was going to be to assemble, I would have ordered something else.
Very poor instructions on putting this together. I have constructed many pieces of furniture like this in a lot less time but with better, more accurate directions from the manufacturer. I have written to the source mfr. and suggested they change the instructions to say, "after reading the directions and before construction, pack up the parts and ship back to the manufacturer. Let's see if they can assemble their own product."
if you like putting puzzles togather this is your cart. good news it is made of mostly real wood not pressed paper. it is heavy weight but a Chinese puzzle for sure. looks good after you get thru the swearing at it while you put it togather. at least all pieces were with it. towel rack on the side is a real doozy to get into place too.
For the money spent, this is a useable, pressboard cart, good in a small space, but rather cheaply constructed. The assembly directions are of little help, but if you persist and think it through, it's not difficult to put together. One of the holes for the towel bar's hollow metal dowel was too small to accept the dowel and required some filing to enlarge the hole. The finish is a disappointment. Perhaps it left the manufacturer with its oil finish intact, but the desert heat left the oil soaked into the cardboard packaging and not on the cart. Easily enough fixed with a rub down of the recommended Danish oil, but more expense and time. Not a bad buy, just not exceptional value for the money.
It fit right into the spot I selected for it, but as I mentioned above, it does require patience to assemble it. Good quality wood using birch instead of maple and it looks great.
This kitchen cart is made of good quality products....as advertised. My husband and I easily put it together. All the parts were there and the instructions were detailed enough. It is just what I needed in my small kitchen .... it's like a small kitchen island, giving me more working surface.
Overall this is a nice cart. The drawer only runs on a small wooden rod which does not seem sturdy and makes for the drawer not to open and close smoothly - has to be lifted a little to close it back in the space. Directions were missing an entire step.
I bought this cart to use in my dining room and it looks great!
this took approximately 2-3 hrs to put together. and a couple of steps were missing. pictures only. it looks good when finally together and is serving its purpose.
The screws for the back of the drawer didn't go all the way in even after 3 of my friends and I attempted. I didn't want to go through the hassle of returning the part and getting a replacement. Otherwise it is ok and serves its basic purpose. Also it looks pretty.

Pressed Salami Sandwiches
Weighting the assembled sandwiches helps to soften the bread and compress the layers, so the sandwiches are easier and neater to eat. When using store-bought roasted peppers from a jar, don't discard the flavorful oil they're packed in; brush it on bread, as in this recipe, or drizzle over salads and mixed roasted vegetables.
Get MoreSubscribe to Martha Stewart Living
- 2 round or oval loaves country bread (1 pound each), split and hollowed
- 1 jar (12 ounces) oil-packed roasted red peppers
- 12 ounces salami, thinly sliced
- 12 ounces provolone cheese, thinly sliced
- 2 bunches arugula, (about 6 ounces each), washed well and thick stems removed (about 10 cups)
Step 1
Brush cut sides of halved bread loaves with oil from jar of roasted peppers. Dividing evenly, layer bottom bread halves with roasted peppers, salami, cheese, and arugula; top with remaining bread halves.
Step 2
Wrap each sandwich tightly with plastic, and press: Lay wrapped sandwiches on a baking sheet. Position another baking sheet on top, and weight with heavy canned goods or a large skillet. Let stand for one hour, pressing down occasionally with hands.
Step 3
Refrigerate wrapped sandwiches until ready to serve, up to 1 day. To serve, cut into wedges.

This was wonderful. I made it for a group we took on a tour to a few Virginia wineries. Served it with orzo and zucchini pasta salad and grapes. It was a hit. Great to make the day before.Reply

This looks wonderful, but how could I make it a little more kid-friendly? I know that I can replace the arugula with spinach or even leaf lettuce (my kids all love salad, which is probably not that typical, lol) but what could I replace the roasted red peppers with? None of my 3 kids will touch roasted peppers of any kind, so what could I replace that with? I really want to try this sandwich! :)Reply
cambron 15 Aug, 2008
Also good using the oil from marinated artichokes. Then chop up the artichokes and sprinkle on sandwich as well. We like this sandwich using hawaiian bread.Reply
csclancy 22 May, 2008
I make this for picnics, easy because I can do it the night before. I make only one sandwich using a large loaf. I use 1/2 pound of genoa salami, 1/2 pound hard salami, and 1/2 pound of provolone. If I can't find oil-packed peppers, I used water-packed, drained well, and just drizzle plain old EVOO on the bread.Reply
After it sits pressed overnight, it's gorgeous to cut into and see all the layers.

New York (AP) — New York City police say a former member of a band fatally shot three of his bandmates and wounded a fourth in a Brooklyn row house before killing himself.
Police say it's not clear why the man opened fire early Monday at the three-story building in Williamsburg.
Police say the shooter had been kicked out of the band, but they aren't sure if that motivated the shooting.
The victims were found on the second and third floors. The shooter was discovered on the roof.
Police say the dead men are believed to be Iranian nationals living in the U.S.
Another bandmate was wounded on the arm and has been hospitalized in stable condition.
Police say officers didn't fire their weapons, and reports of sniper fire on them are incorrect.

Bonfires - in the garden
Burning household waste is not an acceptable or environmentally friendly way to dispose of household rubbish, it is unnecessary. You should dispose of your rubbish responsibly.
If your neighbour is burning rubbish in their garden/land speak to them and explain the problem in a friendly way. Most neighbours will be considerate in the future when they realise they are causing a problem and should make other arrangements to get rid of their rubbish.
If you believe there is imminent risk to persons or property from a bonfire, contact the Fire and Rescue Service immediately on 999!
The police can also prosecute anyone who allows smoke to drift across a road causing a danger to road users.
If the problem continues, keep a note of the dates and times of the bonfires and contact us.

Gun scrutiny spreads to toy shelves
Nerf guns and violent video games are targeted, but manufacturers note that they don't cause shootings in other countries.
After the killings in Newtown, Conn., last month, the gun-control debate migrated from gun shops to toy and video game stores with a little help from the National Rifle Association. While many American parents have begun questioning the merits of toy guns on the playground, the NRA put video games in its crosshairs a week after the elementary school shooting that killed 26 people -- including 20 young students.
"There exists in this country a callous, corrupt and corrupting shadow industry that sells, and sows, violence against its own people," Wayne LaPierre, executive vice president of the National Rifle Association, said during a press conference on Dec. 21. "Through vicious, violent video games with names like Bulletstorm, Grand Theft Auto, Mortal Kombat and Splatterhouse."
Don't forget Activision's (ATVI) "Call of Duty," Wayne. The most recent installment of that first-person shooter series -- "Call of Duty: Black Ops II" -- grossed $1 billion worldwide just 15 days after its Nov. 13 release and is still the second-best-selling game on the planet behind Capcom's "DMC." AdAge notes that the game's "Revolution" downloadable expansion pack, releasing Tuesday, gives players four new maps, the ability to play as zombies and a new weapon, the Peacekeeper hybrid SMG assault rifle.
Activision has refused to comment on accusations made by the NRA, which just released a shooting video game of its own, but maintains that "Call Of Duty" itself shouldn't shoulder the blame for violent incidents. As the game maker points out, "Call of Duty" is similarly popular in the United Kingdom, where the World Health Organization says there are 0.25 gun deaths per 100,000 people compared to 10 per 100,000 in the U.S. In France, where the gun death rate is only 3 per 100,000, "Call of Duty: Black Ops II" is still the most popular game in the land, according to video game tracking site VGChartz.
Hasbro (HAS), maker of Nerf guns, argued a similar point to AdAge about that toy's popularity in the U.K. Nerf products brought in roughly $410 million for Hasbro in 2011 and the company says the shooting in Newtown didn't diminish demand during the most recent holiday season.
"Nerf is all about active play and active fun. If you ask kids as young as when they're able to play, up through parents and grandparents, everyone understands that these are toys," John Frascotti, Hasbro's chief marketing officer, told AdAge.
It also helps that the toy industry has its own set of gun-control laws on the books. Federal and state laws require toys like Nerf and water guns to be made in non-gun neon colors or at least to have an orange tip for the muzzle. Toy guns like the far more authentic Airsoft guns, meanwhile, can only be marketed to ages 14 and older and are confined to store gun departments away from toys.
More on moneyNOW
During the late 1960s and early 1970s this country transformed made serious social changes when it came to families. The values and morals began a decline that has yet to stop even now. Children have grown up for 45 years without learning manners, watching excessively violent movies that many try to emulate in real life, drugs are now being legalized, and to many citizens have gotten away from the Christian values and morals that guided this country since 1776. Check the declaration, constitution and historical documents that are alluded in these writings. We rapidly declining as a nation as a result. Speaking of which: there is no amendment in the constitution that requires a separation of church and state.
PS: Never in the history of the world has any government disarmed it's citizens with "their" best interests in mind. They have an adgenda of their own which does not include "your safety""
PS: Why do you suppose that Communist China is praising Obama for trying to destroy the second ammendment? The Japanese avoided invasion of our country in WWII because they knew most Americans were armed and they would not be able to run rough-shod over them!
Wake up you naive people.
The biggest loophole in all this Gun Control Talk is the lack of effective dealing with the criminal elements of this society by our so called Criminal Justice Systems.
Criminals committing violent crimes are continually being released back into society, with little or in some cases no punishment because of all the laws that have been enacted to protect their rights, at the cost of the rights of the people they victimize.
Logic would dictate that prosecution of criminals be stepped up, with more sever punishment, including execution of the most violent offenders.
Trials/punishment should be reduced to weeks if not days, instead of years, and if the death penalty should be the same, complete as soon as possible not years later, like the woman in Texas who was convicted in 1997 and her it is 2013. That is 16 years, what kind of deterrent is that There are others that have been waiting even longer.
It is the prosecution of offenders that needs to be address before banning gun, knives, toys, and violent video games and movies.
I remember as a child my father buying me a mattel imitation colt revolver cap gun. The attention to detail was amazing. Now if a child were to walk around a neighborhood or playground with this toy he/she would be arrested or maybe shot by a police officer. Easily mistaken for the real thing.
Leave the toys alone. I have many fond memories of that toy gun and I don't plan on going to a school to shoot children. If the mother in Connecticut were still alive she would be looking a very long prison sentence for negligence. Guess that goes without saying.
The media holds a large portion of the blame for the "one-upsmanship" in mass shootings. They keep score of the dead and injured and give the killers the notoriety they could never achieve by doing something positive with their lives. We know more about the past of these killers than we do of our Commander-in-Chief. If their names were never published and their past not revealed in every detail, the glamor of their deeds would no longer be such of an incentive to try to outdo the past events.
Is it true that the past group of mass killers all have the Democratic Party in their roots?
Why is Mr. Obama and his whole administration not criticizing the extremely violent Hollywood Movie crowd and all the celebrities who support him and his ideology and contribute money to his cause?
Only toys and video game violence affect people and make them imitate what they see? illogical as heII.

Best Hamptons Rental EVER
This house is gorgeous -- the lush property and big back yard are fabulous for entertaining. We brought our two shih tzu puppies and family here for two weeks this summer. We loved it so much that we didn't want to leave! The dining room overlooks the beautiful free form swimming pool, and the oversized master bedroom suites on both floors and big open living room areas make it feel like we had a whole hotel to ourselves! When the kids watched movies downstairs in the evening we didn't even hear them. We will definitely come back again -- I highly recommend this luxury rental house for a family or group of friends!

If you're going to do anything like that I would take a look at the RedHawk line first.
#1 the Clearsight peep is clear. No sheathing... which means that any amount of sunlight it attracts could reflect... either interfering with your shot or acting as a beacon tipping off the animal that you are there with the glint.
The RedHawk 2020 or 4040 will not reflect light. They carry a yellow shooting lens in the peep and are sheathed in black plastic... no reflection. Additionally, there is a small hood over the occular lens that is aligned with the string at full draw. Personally I shoot the 4040, and my wife shoots the 2020.
The difference between the 2020 and 4040 is that the 2020 has a stem for use with a rubber tether, the 4040 does not.
#2 the Clearsight and the RedHawk peeps are large units and take up a lot of room in a string. There are some, though I am not one of them, that will point out the potential loss of speed because of the size and drag. While I don't disagree with them, I don't worry about it. My bow is a tack driver. If you are one that is concerned with speed loss, then I would look at a string splitter or something a little smaller.
Just my opinion here as I have never used that particular peep. Take it for what it's worth.

Nele Neuhaus, Translated by Steven T. Murray
Minotaur Books
On a rainy November day police detectives Pia Kirchhoff and Oliver von Bodenstein are summoned to a mysterious traffic accident: A woman has fallen from a pedestrian bridge onto a car driving underneath. According to a witness, the woman may have been pushed. The investigation leads Pia and Oliver to a small village, and the home of the victim, Rita Cramer.
On a September evening eleven years earlier, two seventeen-year-old girls vanished from the village without a trace. In a trial based only on circumstantial evidence, twenty-year-old Tobias Sartorius, Rita Cramer's son, was sentenced to ten years in prison. Bodenstein and Kirchhoff discover that Tobias, after serving his sentence, has now returned to his home town. Did the attack on his mother have something to do with his return?
In the village, Pia and Oliver encounter a wall of silence. When another young girl disappears, the events of the past seem to be repeating themselves in a disastrous manner. The investigation turns into a race against time, because for the villagers it is soon clear who the perpetrator is—and this time they are determined to take matters into their own hands.
An atmospheric, character-driven and suspenseful mystery set in a small town that could be anywhere, dealing with issues of gossip, power, and keeping up appearances.
"...exciting and well-crafted... It has long been the fashion in police-procedural books for officers' private lives to be interwoven with professional duties. Ms. Neuhaus uses this pattern to greater effect than most, indicating parallels and contrasts between the cops' relationships and those of the villagers, and showing how the police's off-duty preoccupations complicate and distract them from work and even jeopardize their safety." -- The Wall Street Journal
"Snow White Must Die... has been a bestseller in Europe. It's easy to see why. Nele Neuhaus has a flair for the ominous and the ornate. Her primary setting, the village of Altenhain, makes those secretive villages in Agatha Christie novels seem as harmless as a collection of gingerbread houses. Altenhain is the anti-Christie town: Instead of quaintness, it offers decay; instead of Miss Marple, there's a spiteful populace of voyeurs whose curiosity stokes the smoldering embers of violence." --The Washington Post
"This novel is bursting with conspiracy and subterfuge and a raw exposition of the ugliness that can inhabit the human soul. Like detectives Pia Kirchhoff and Oliver von Bodenstein, readers won't stop until the shocking ending is finally revealed."--USA Today
"With an entire town to populate and eleven years of history to explore, Nele Neuhaus had a monumental task ahead of her, one she tackled with impressive craft and style. Snow White Must Die is one mystery wrapped in a dozen others, startlingly capturing the long memory and insular nature of small towns everywhere."—San Francisco Book Review
"With more twists and turns than you can shake a stick at and a suitably over-the-top ending, Snow White Must Die is excellent poolside fare."—The Guardian

Comments about Mapex 330B Series Boom Stand:
Work very well, especially for the price. The boom arm is shorter than I thought, but it still works for my setup well. It is also not as tall, so this would NOT work for a crash above the tom-toms. It is best suited for a ride above the floor tom. I would recommend this to anyone putting together a beginner or even intermediate level kit.

Comments about Mapex 330B Series Boom Stand:
This was part of a Mapex Horizon kit I got. I was supposed to receive a 500 series straight stand and they sent this. I compared it to the 500 boom that I got and it is still good quality and the bracing is just a little smaller but still strong. Not as tall but it is perfect for the ride cymbal above the floor tom.

"Though she is not good with words, she shared her sincere thoughts with me.
I was touched to see that the shy 14 year old girl that always hid in a shell had matured into a 20 year old woman, who cared for others and shared those feelings with me. Although she is still not good with words, because of that I felt I understood her raw and direct feelings. And the shy expression she shows every now and again is the same "Acchan" I knew. Anyhow, Atsuko Maeda will be graduating after the Tokyo Dome concert in the AKB Theater." - Aki-P

Imagine Dragons is also in the running but in only one category, International Album of the Year. As the category title suggests, it's open to non-Canadian artists, making the Las Vegas-based band eligible.
The 43rd Annual Juno Awards will be handed out in Winnipeg on during a live broadcast on March 30.

Very early in the opening contest for NBC's Hockey Day in America broadcast, it seemed as if the Pittsburgh Penguins were going to wipe the floor with the hosting Buffalo Sabres.
The Penguins scored twice in the first 87 seconds — ironically the same number of the second goal scorer — to pull up 2-0 on a sluggish-looking Sabres squad. The Sabres were able to come back, and even take the lead early in the third period, but it wasn't enough as Pittsburgh used two third period tallies, the final coming with 2:04 left to play, to take the nationally televised game 4-3.
It was another contest in which the Sabres found a way to lose while the Penguins found a way to win.
""The puck just found it's way towards me and I just put it to the net and it went in," Penguins defenseman Paul Martin said of his game-winning goal. "I think it maybe went off [Sabres defenseman Christian] Ehrhoff's hip, I think it moved a little bit when I saw the replay."
The Penguins scored the first goal of the game just 35 seconds into the contest when Pascal Dupuis tipped a Brooks Orpik shot past Ryan Miller. The second goal would come just 52 seconds later when Sidney Crosby punched a puck past Miller to put the Penguins up by two in the blink of an eye.
"I think just making sure we keep it simple from the start," Crosby said about the two quick goals. "We give ourselves a chance to get our feet under us and hopefully get a chance to get in the offensive zone. I don't think that we specifically think about scoring, it is just more or less getting in their zone and getting to our game."
Buffalo, while they could've packed it in very early, fought hard to get back into the game. They used a goal in each period to comeback
and take the lead against the Penguins. However, the lead was very short-lived as Dupuis notched his second goal of the afternoon less than two minutes after Steve Ott put Buffalo up by one.
The way the Sabres played down the stretch when they had a chance to pull out an upset victory had Miller boiling over.
"Just [expletive] losing at the end. It's 3-3, get to overtime. It's 3-2, [expletive] make him come all the way down," he said.
Miller looked as if he was going to say more, but he paused, took a deep breath, and collected his thoughts before continuing on with his post game interview.
Success for the Penguins against Buffalo is nothing new, especially for Crosby. In 21 games played against the Sabres, the 25-year old has 29 points (11+18).
"It's been good and I think that the games are over so fast; you have to prepare yourself to play a fast game," said Crosby. "For whatever reason, I've always been able to put some pucks up but you know it is great ice here. That's all I can say.
"I've just been able to score. That one today, I think it goes off their defenseman and in. I don't think I do anything differently here or against Ryan (Miller) than I would against anybody else."
Thomas Vanek did extend his point total to 25 points, and his goal total to 12. He leads the NHL in both categories, but is up only by one point of Crosby, and one goal on Penguins forward James Neal and New York Islanders Center John Tavares.

This is a guest post written by Keyzygirl from Key West, Florida. Laid back and vaping in paradise.
Like many people I am on a tight budget. My husband had open heart surgery and I had two major surgeries this past year that put us in a mess of medical debt. I worried how I would get through it, pay my bills, take care of my kids and keep vaping. The stress alone was enough to make me want to light up, but I didn't! Vaping is cheaper than smoking if you do it right.

News - Afghanistan
Local Taliban leader, Shadi Mama, was killed in a joint Afghan and Nato security forces operation in Nad Ali district of southern Helmand province on Tuesday, Isaf said.
"Shadi Mama was a Taliban leader operating in the Marjeh and Trek Nawa areas of Helmand province. He was responsible for improvised explosive device and direct fire attacks against Afghan and coalition forces," Isaf said in a statement on Wednesday.
He facilitated heavy weapons to insurgents operating throughout Nad Ali, it said.
The security force "identified Shadi Mama engaging in nefarious activity" and "conducted a precision strike, killing him," it added.
Another Taliban leader, Mojib was killed in a joint operation in Khoghyani district of eastern Nangarhar province.
According to Isaf, Mojib, also known as Mansoor, conducted direct fire attacks against the government and security forces and was directly associated with Taliban senior leadership in the area.
Meanwhile on Wednesday, a Haqqani leader has been captured in Terayazai district of eastern Khost province, Isaf said.
He is accused of conducting direct fire and IED attacks as well as kidnapping operations throughout the district, it added.
It comes as another Taliban leader was arrested Wednesday in Maiwand district of southern Kandahar province.
Isaf said he is believed to be responsible for coordinating and conducting insurgent operations throughout Shah Wali Kot district, including oversight of the acquisition of supplies and "lethal aid" to insurgents for use in attacks.

What The Papers Say - 23 June
More transfer speculation in the day's papers.
The views on this page are taken from the local and national media and do not necessarily reflect the views of Everton.
A slew of names are linked with Everton in today's papers.
The Sunday People claims Roberto Martinez will rival Stoke boss Mark Hughes in the pursuit of the signature of Stephen Ireland.
The same paper also claims the potential recruitment of Ross Turnbull is on hold and that Martinez's former assistant Graeme Jones is set to move to Goodison Park in July.
The Daily Star Sunday links Everton with a move for out of contract Japan star Keisuke Honda, claiming Aston Villa and Tottenham are also interested.
The other red-top tabloid reports Arouna Kone's apparent desire to leave Wigan and cites Everton and Liverpool as potential destinations.
It also says the Blues want to add Wigan coach Dennis Lawrence to their backroom staff.

In subsection (c), the words "vote and" are omitted as surplus.
In subsection (d), the words "officer or employee of the Administration" are substituted for "member" for clarity and consistency in the revised title and with other titles of the United States Code.

Dear Customer,
Thank you for buying the Tachyon XC Micro or Micro HD. These Micro cameras are the latest of our video and still helmet cameras designed for filming extreme action in extreme conditions. They are very rugged and very simple to use, while delivering 30FPS of quality video.
The Tachyon Micros are shockproof, waterproof, and foolproof. Take them anywhere on land, into the sea, and into the air and bring back your stunts, adventures, and bloopers. A patented shock-proof battery system eliminates an all-too -common problem among other action cameras; the loss of power and recorded files caused by the jarring loose of the batteries. This innovation ensures that videos taken in challenging and perhaps impossible-to-repeat situations will not be lost.
And unlike other action cameras which need to rely on an external waterproof case, the Tachyon XC Micros are designed to be waterproof from the start. Combined with the patented Dive Lock (see below), the Micros allow you to film to a depth of 100 feet (30 Meters).
The Tachyon Micro shoots video in superior quality standard ng modes: Superior-Quality Video and Time-Lapse Photography. It makes use of the 4GB - 64GB Micro Memory cards, for the longest recording times on the market.
About Tachyon
Tachyon, Inc. is a company that deals in extremes: We make extremely cool products for extreme people who engage in extreme activities. In order to make the best products, Tachyon, Inc. does not compromise on materials or on the quality of construction. We exceed industrial standards to ensure that our products exceed your expectations.
Please be sure to set up your new action camera using the following instructions. If you have any questions feel free to contact us.
The Management
|• To get started, insert two AAA batteries into the battery cartridge. Always insert the + side of the battery first, before snapping the - side firmly into place.
• Now insert the cartridge, with the two contact points leading, into back of your Micro camera. Make sure the red latch locks firmly over the cartridge.
• For batteries, we recommend Energizer Ultimate Lithium. These give the longest battery life. In cold weather use ONLY this kind of battery. You may also make use of brand-name rechargeable AAA batteries.
• Rechargeable batteries, while saving money, will not last as long - especially in cold weather. And there is a chance that you will lose the last file you are recording due to a sudden drop in power.
|• In the slot to the left, insert your micro memory card with the gold leads facing up.
• Be sure that the memory card clicks into place. You may need to use your fingernail to push it in far enough to lock.
• To prevent possible problems with your camera, use only Class 6 or above micro memory cards.
• Beware of counterfeit cards.
• We recommend that you use a Class 6, 8GB Micro Memory card or larger. These will give you longer recording times so that you can be record more action without having to stop and load a new card.
• 4GB, 8GB, 16GB, 32GB, 64GB cards are all compatible with your camera.
• With a 4GB card you will get 1 hour of video.
|• Once your batteries and memory card have been inserted, turn on your Micro camera by pushing (but not holding) the START/STOP button. You will hear a beep sound and see the green LED, quickly followed by the red.
• That's it! You have begun shooting video!
•To stop filming, push and hold down the START/STOP button again.
• You will hear a double beep sound and the red LED will turn off.
• When in video mode, the Tachyon Micro will record superior-quality VGA video. The Micro HD will record in 720p HD.
• After you have been recording for 30 minutes, your camera will pause for five seconds to save your file to your memory card. But don't worry; it will automatically start up again after those five seconds.
• You will be able to edit your video with most common editing programs. Always try to edit and save your videos at the best resolution that you can (but not necessarily higher than the original file). Then, when you upload to a video-sharing site, your videos will look their best.
• A 4GB Micro Memory card will hold just over one hour of video. Larger cards will hold multiples of that amount.
• You may change recording modes from Video to Photo (Time-Lapse) by sliding the switch on the left to the desired position (camera icon).
• To lock the camera so that it cannot shut off due to extreme water pressure, or by the user accidentally pressing the button, slide the right switch to the Lock position (lock icon). See Waterproofing below for more details.
• If you are having video playback problems when connected to your TV, please see below for how to use the Unlock - Lock to switch TV playback modes.
|• To switch from Video mode to Time Lapse Photo mode, stop any current video recording and then slide the left switch from Video to Photo.
• When you press the START/STOP button you will now hear a beep sound and see the LED flashing red and green. You are now capturing one .JPG photo every two seconds.
• To return to video mode, press and hold the START/STOP button until you hear a double beep and the LED turns off. Then slide the switch back to Video.
To set your camera's time and date you will need to follow these simple steps:
The Tachyon XC Micro comes with one reversible Universal Mount that allows you to securely mount your camera on the top or on either side of your helmet.
You Micro will easily snap in and out of the Universal Mount, which itself will easily slip over the strap of your goggles, or on to the top or either side of your helmet.
We also recommend, for secure and easy mounting, 3M™ Dual-Lock™ Fastening Strips. You will get one 6-inch strip in your box. These are similar to Velcro but much stronger.
When filming in extreme situations, it is important to further tether your camera to the mount that you are using. This will ensure that your camera is not lost in water, snow, or rugged terrain when you fall or hit your camera. The rear door of your camera is designed to allow fishing line to be passed through the top, near the latch, so when the door is locked shut your camera will be securely attached to whatever you tie it to.
3M™ Dual-Lock™ is a trademark of 3M Company in the United States and/or other countries.
See our Tachyon XC Micro Mounting Page for more mounting tips.
|For waterproofing reasons, the microphone of the Tachyon XC Micro is sealed inside the case. This ensures that your camera will function well in extreme situations. But your sound-recording quality will be quite a bit lower than on a camera that is not designed to be waterproof.
|Tachyon, Inc. has patented a shock-resistance system that keeps your batteries in place and connected in event of severe jarring. Disconnected batteries would result in the shut down of the camera and the loss or corruption of your video files.
Be sure that your batteries are inserted correctly into the shock-proof battery cartridge, and that your cartridge is inserted correctly into the camera, so that the red latch snaps securely over the back of the cartridge.
For additional shock resistance, the Micro has a locking switch to the right of the red latch. When you switch it to the left, the cartridge will be locked into your camera and you will be unable to remove it even when you depress the red latch.
To remove your battery cartridge, you must move the locking switch back to the right, and then depress the red latch.
The Tachyon XC Micro makes use of its patented Dive Lock feature to work under water to a depth of 100 feet (30 Meters).
To ensure waterproofing, be sure to keep the rubber seal around the rear door clean and the door closed properly.
The Dive Lock prevents water pressure from shutting off your camera in the deep water. Lock your camera by opening the back door and sliding the locking switch to the Right. Close and lock the door and then start recording as normal. You (and high water pressure) will now be unable to stop the recording.
To stop recording, you must surface, dry your camera, open the door, slide the switch back to the left, and then push the ON/OFF button until the camera stops.
The Tachyon XC Micro comes with a USB cable.
To open your files from your camera, first set the switches on the back of your camera to Photo and Lock.
Then plug the small end into the jack inside the back door of your camera and the large end into your computer's USB port. (The jack on your camera is used for both the TV and the USB cables).
Now turn on your camera. You should hear a beep and see a window popping up asking you to view your files.
We suggest that you save your files to your computer as soon as possible after recording.
But if your computer is able to read Micro Memorycards, we highly recommend removing the card from your Tachyon XC Micro, inserting it into its adaptor, and then plugging it into your computer. Then you will be able to move your files from your camera onto your computer.
This will not only save the batteries of your cameras, but video files watched directly from the memory card may not run as smoothly as files that have been copied to your computer's hard drive.
When your Micro USB cable or memory card is inserted into your adaptor/card reader/computer, you should see the following in your file manager.
Under the DCIM folder you will see one video folder (100XCVID) for all of the videos that you have taken on that card.
And you will see a separate picture folder (101,102XCPIC) for each "session" of photo taking. That means that every time you start and stop taking your time lapse photos, a new folder will be created. This will help you to keep things organized.
You may copy, paste and delete these files just as you would do with any other file on your computer.
We urge you to copy your files to the computer as quickly as possible, to free up space for more files and to be sure that you don't lose any great video or photos.
|• For playing back raw, unedited video files, Tachyon highly recommends the VLC media player. It is possible that some video files recorded by your cameras will not play back clearly or smoothly on some other media players.
• It can be downloaded for free here.
To connect the Micro to your TV, insert the TV cable into the back of your camera, and then plug in the yellow and white leads into the back of your TV (to the corresponding color plugs)
See the next section for selecting your TV system.
NTSC and PAL are two different TV systems. The videos that you take with the Tachyon XC Micro are compatible with both.
You can switch between the two systems using the Lock and Unlock switch on the back of your camera. When connected to your TV and turning on the camera when unlocked, you will be in NTSC mode. Turning it on when locked, you will be in PAL mode.
Your camera ships with the switch set to Unlock. Therefore the default mode is NTSC system. So if you are in an PAL country, and your TV playback is in black and white or with a wavy image, you will need to switch.
With the first batch of production for the Micro, these switches were reversed. It was Unlock for PAL and Lock for NTSC. So if you purchased your camera before February, 2010, please try the opposite of these instructions!
START/STOP button
Please note that older analogue TV systems may have problems viewing XC Micro files when attached to the camera. Newer digital systems will all work fine.
|As with most electronic products, it is better if you take the batteries out if you don't plan on using them. Leaking or expanding batteries could cause damage to your connections, or even become jammed inside your camera.
It is also a good idea to remove the batteries from the cartridge and the cartridge from the camera and leave the back door open. This will relieve pressure on the springs, contacts, and rubber seal.
If you do leave the back door open, it is probably a good idea to keep the camera in a Ziploc® bag, to prevent dust or dirt from getting inside.
If using your camera in salt water, be sure to rinse it in fresh water after use. The salt can cause rusting of metal parts. Also be sure to clean any sand from around the seals, as this could allow water to enter the workings.
Store your Tachyon XC in a cool dry place.
Tachyon Micro cameras are compatible with Windows® XP/Vista/7 and Apple Mac OS® X
Apple MAC OS® X is a trademark of Apple Inc., registered in the U.S. and other countries.
The Tachyon XC Micro requires good-quality batteries to support its high-capacity functions, so low-cost carbon-zinc batteries are not recommended. For best results, use AAA Energizer® Ultimate Lithium Batteries. In cold weather, use ONLY this kind!
• DO NOT mix new and used or different kinds of batteries.
AAA-Size rechargeable batteries must not be used for several reasons:
Over the life of your camera battery technology may improve, so you should make use of the most advanced (non-rechargeable) batteries available.
|For technical support, please contact us at email@example.com
|Although the Tachyon Micro cameras perform well indoors, underwater, and in low-light situations, it is specifically tuned for shooting in sunlight. So for the best looking videos, try to shoot your action when the light is good.
Make sure that your lens is clean. One small spot can ruin a great video. Don't be afraid to pour water over your camera to clean it. Just be sure that the rear door is securely closed.
|Tachyon, Inc. will not under any circumstances be responsible for injuries or property damage incurred during the use of any of our products.
|Videos taken with your Tachyon Micro or Micro HD are perfect for uploading to YouTube®, or other video sharing sites.
For best results, edit your videos first, cutting out all of the uninteresting bits. Adding music really helps to make a great video.
Always edit and save your videos to at least the same video resolution at which they were recorded. Don't downgrade your video quality.
See this YouTube page for optimizing your video uploads.
Be sure to mention Tachyon Micro or Tachyon Micro HD and Helmet Camera in your title or tags so that other Tachyon users can find and comment on your videos.
And be sure to see our website for video samples and for further tips and tricks on video recording and editing.
|The Micro XC uses Micro memory memory cards. From 4GB up to 64GB.
With a 4GB card you will get 1 hour of video, and over 100,000 still photos.
With larger cards, you can double, quadruple and octuple these numbers.
The Micro Memory cards pictured on our website an in this manual may be replaced by similar or superior cards, depending on supply.

Some Buford veterans are fighting for their Legion Post. Buford City Schools is thinking of taking the land so it can build a new high school.
The members of Post 127 have met at this particular location since 1948. And now they're worried they could lose this land to eminent domain.
The Buford City Schools wants the 33.5 acres owned by the legion to build a new high school and they want the veterans to leave the property by end of next year.
The district and legion have been in negotiations over the property for a year and a half. Both sides have appraised the land which includes ball fields that are leased to the city.
On Monday, the school board will consider this matter during their meeting.
