The Indian Pentecostal Church of God (IPC) is the largest indigenous Pentecostal denomination in India. The Christian movement in India was pioneered by the disciple of Lord Jesus Christ, Thomas the Apostle, who traveled outside the Roman Empire to preach the Gospel, traveling as far as India.[2][3] According to tradition, the Apostle reached Muziris, India in 52 AD and baptized several people. The origins of the Indian Pentecostal Church of God can be traced back to the Pentecostal movement in India to the early 20th century[4] and the church has been growing ever since. The great revival of the twentieth century[5] broke out in Central Travancore among the traditional Christian churches. As a result of the movement of the Holy Spirit, several congregations and prayer fellowships evolved under various independent leaderships in Malankara.
The chief architect and the founder of IPC was Pastor K.E.Abraham,[6] a powerful orator and writer. Pastor K.E. Abraham received the baptism of the Holy Spirit in 1923. Apostle P. M. Samuel, Pastor K.C.Cherian, Pastor P.T.Chacko, Pastor K.C.Oommen, Pastor P.T. Mathew and many others were also filled with the Holy Spirit in Nineteen Twenties. Gradually a fellowship was formed by these independent leaders and the first united Convention was held at Ranny in 1925 April. These fathers of faith, In 1935 registered 'The Indian Pentecostal Church of God' as a Religious Society at Eluru, Andhra Pradesh. The First President was Apostle P.M.Samuel. Presently, IPC has over 7000 congregations around the world. Administrative headquarters is at Hebron, Kumbanadu, Kerala, India.
The local churches belonging to this movement span the length and breadth of India as well as countries outside India in North America, Middle-East, Europe and Australia. The local churches under IPC are by origin, administration and its practices truly indigenous and are led by local ministers and leaders. The current executives are Rev. Jacob John (General President), Rev. Dr. Baby Varghese (General Vice-President) and Rev. Dr. K.C. John (General Secretary).[7]

Statement of faith[edit]
The Statement of Faith is the Indian Pentecostal Church of God's doctrinal standard.[8][9] It articulates both an evangelical and Pentecostal doctrinal position with Wesleyan influences. The following is a summary of the Statement of Faith:
- The Church believes that the Holy Bible consisting of sixty-six books including the Old and the New Testament, is the inspired Word of God, a revelation from God to Man, concerning the will of God in all things necessary to our faith, conduct and salvation, so that whatever is not contained therein is not to be enjoined as an article of faith.
- It believes in one God, eternally existing in three persons (Trinity), namely the God the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost.
- It believes that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, was conceived by the Holy Spirit, and born of the virgin Mary. It also believes in Christ's Death, burial, resurrection, and ascension.
- It believes that man was created in the image and likeness of God, but fell by voluntary transgression and his only hope of redemption and salvationis in Jesus Christ; that all have sinned and come short of the glory of God, that repentance is commanded of God for all, and is necessary for forgiveness of sin; that salvation, new birth and justification are wrought by the grace of God, and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and the renewing work of the Holy Ghost.
- It believes in the ordinance of believer's baptism by immersion, in the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost, for all who repent and believe Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord.
- It believes that all believers are entitled to and earnestly seek the promise of the Father, the Baptism in the Holy Spirit according to the command of our Lord Jesus Christ; that the full consummation of the Baptism of the believers in the Holy Spirit is evidenced by the initial sign of speaking in tongues and subsequent manifestation of the Spiritual gifts and Fruit of the Holy Spirit.
- It believes that the Lord's Supper, consisting of the elements of bread and the fruit of the wine, is a memorial of His sufferings and death
- It believes that the deliverance from sickness is provided for all in Christ's atonement and is the privilege of all believers, and the anointing of the sick with oil for healing and the laying on of hands.
- It believes in the pre-millennial Second Coming of Christ
- It believes in the promise of new heavens and a new earth wherein the righteous will dwell.
Origins (Early 20th Century)[edit]
The history of IPC is more or less related mainly to the person Pastor. K E Abraham who was a separatist during the period of native revival movement in Travancore. K E Abraham and K V Simon were the two leaders of separatist movement. Under their guidance there were churches formed. The missionaries from the west also came at the same time to South India for the propagation of the Pentecostal doctrine. Many native people accepted it. In June 22, 1923, Abraham also received the gift of the Spirit (speaking in tongue) and became a Pentecostal believer at the house of C. Manasseh at Paraniyam at Neyyattinkara. Once he accepted the Pentecostal faith, the separatists did not accept him. Since he was rejected from his own people, he was praying to God for a way to continue in ministry and worship.
During the time of rejection and separation from his own people, he wrote a book, Baptism of the Holy Spirit[10] which made a way for him to be known; it opened many ways to preach and to propagate the Pentecostal message. The first Pentecostal church was formed by his ministry in Mulakuzha, followed by churches in Ranni, Pandalam, Elanthoor and Vettiyar. Following that, more churches were established and subsequently in April 13, 1924 a monthly gathering was started with all these churches, which is still continuing among all the IPC churches in different places. These independent movement churches were given a name in July 1924 'Thennindia Pentecosthu Daivasabha' (The South India Pentecostal Church of God). Even when Abraham and colleagues formed these independent churches, they were in cooperation with Rev. Robert F. Cook who headed "Thennindia Poorna Suvishesha Daivasabha" and Mary Chapman the assemblies of God missionary.
There was a dispute on a 'land registration' with Assemblies of God, which caused Abraham to disconnect his relationship with the AG church for a while, at least until the return of Rev. Robert F. Cook from America. When Cook returned Pastor K.E Abraham along with Rev. Cook formed a new organization called Malankara Pentecost Daivasabha by merging the "Thennindia Pentecosthu Daivasabha" (K E Abraham) and "Thennindia Poorna Suvishesha Daivasabha" (Robert F. Cook). These churches had affiliation from Assemblies God as an independent denomination. However, Malankara Pentecosthu Daivasabha was a native movement under the leadership of Cook and K E Abraham. The joint venture helped the church grow faster and many accepted the new faith.
Even though Thennindia Pentecosthu Daivasabha and Thennindia Poorna Suvishesha Daivasabha merged, the churches that were under the jurisdiction of Abraham kept an independent nature; it is evident as one goes through Pastor Abraham's biography. Even though the two organizations merged there was a separate meeting of the Thennindia Pentecosthu Daivasabha held at the house of Abraham in April 9, 1927.
In 1929, the Malankara Pentecost Daivasabha completely separated from the fellowship of AG due to their restriction concerning the ministerial areas for the work of the missionaries. It was not acceptable to Abraham and other native ministers; therefore, they encouraged Cook to detach Malankara Pentecost Daivasabha from AG fellowship. Cook, who was also aware of the future of Pentecostal movement, decided to detach from AG mission and thought of giving more opening to the native ministers for ministry and administration.
The unity between Cook and Abraham did not last longer because Abraham decided to separate from Cook in January 1930. There are two reasons Abraham indicted for the decision behind separation, first, the freedom of local churches and second, the assumption that an apostolic faith life will not be possible by being with Cook. The diplomatic thought of apostolic life was the influence of Pastor Paul who came and preached in South India. Pastor Paul is the founder of Cylon Pentecostal Mission, which is today know as 'The Pentecostal Mission'. Some of the believers from Kumbanad tried to unite Rev. Cook and Abraham, but it did not work out.
Abraham accepted the same name that was given to the independent churches in 1924 as 'Thennindia Pentecosthu Daivasabha'. After the separation from Cook, Pastor P M Samuel joined Thennindia Pentecosthu Daivasabha with the seventeen churches that he had established. The churches also grew in number in the ministry of native ministers. Since Abraham and his colleagues were challenged by the life and faith of Pastor Paul, they also decided to follow "the Apostolic Faith life".
The Thennindia Pentecosthu Daivasabha came in cooperation with the "Ceylon Pentecostal Mission" in 1930 and the fellowship and ministry together existed until 1933, but Abraham had to leave the fellowship due to some doctrinal differences and differences regarding baptism. When Abraham, Alwin and Paul failed to settle the issue after many written discussions, Abraham took a decision to separate from Ceylon Pentecostal Mission in 1933. It was the Ceylon Pentecostal Mission chief Pastor Paul who ordained K E Abraham in 1933 as Pastor.
The era of expansion and renaming(1933-1950)[edit]
By 1933 the ministry of Thennindia Pentecosthu Daivasabha expanded outside Kerala state, therefore, the ministers requested the leaders of the church to establish a council. The first minister's council was formed in June 5, 1933. There were 16 members selected in the council and they were 1. Pastor P.M. Samuel (President) Faith Home, Thogur, Tanjore Dist. Missionary 2. Pastor K.C. Cherian (Vice - President) Faith Home, Kankanady, South Kanara. Missionary 3. Pastor K.E. Abraham Faith Home, Kumbanad, Travancore Missionary 4. Pastor T. Kochukunju Faith Home, Trivandrum, Travancore. Missionary 5. Pastor K.C. Oommen Faith Home, Kumbanad, Travancore. Missionary 6. Pastor P.T. Mathew Poovathur, Kumbanad, Travancore. Missionary 7. Pastor V.V. Thomas Faith Home, Ranni West, Travancore. Missionary 8. Pastor P.O. Thomas Salem, Ranni East, Travancore. Missionary 9. Pastor T.G. Oommen Ayroor, Kozhencherry, Travancore. Missionary 10. Pastor P.T. Varghese Faith Home, Kunnamkulam, Cochin State. Missionary 11. Pastor K. M. Zachariah Punnakadu, Kozhencherry, Travancore. Missionary 12. Evang. T.V. Issac Kunnamkulam, Cochin State. Teacher 13. Evang. P.M. Thomas B.A. Kalpathi, Palghat, Malabar Gospel Work.Missionary 14. Evang. E.K. John 'Bethel', Kottarakkara, Travancore. Missionary 15. Evang. M. Simon Faith Home, Calicut, Malabar, Missionary 16. Evang. P.T. Chacko B.D., (Secretary) Kumbanad, Travancore, Missionary
Pastor P M Samuel was selected as the first president of this independent church and the council was registered in Aranmula. The head office of the church was in Kumbanad, Kerala. Since the work of the Thennindia Pentecosthu Daivasabha reached far beyond South India, the name was changed to India Pentecosthu Daivasabha (Indian Pentecostal Church of God). The church registered in Eluru, Andhra Pradesh under the Societies Act XXI of 1860 on 9 December 1935. K E Abraham started a bible school at his house, which was unnamed until 1932 and then given the name India Bible College & Seminary (Commonly known as IBC or Hebron Bible College). IBC is an institution that has trained more than 14,000 church leaders, pastors, missionaries, evangelists and students belonging to various denominations for over 83 years.
The church since 1950s[edit]
Thereafter, the IPC made a remarkable progress in founding churches and taking the gospel to different parts of Kerala as well as other states of India. By 1950, IPC was the leading Pentecostal denomination in South Kerala. However, the period from 1953-1966 was also marked as the period when church split also referred to as 'the Dark Age' of IPC. The split among IPC leaders caused many to leave the denomination. The division briefly affected the growth of the church and it is written that Pastor Abraham had contemplated leaving the organization. However, God enabled him to stay and lead the church for many successful years. After the 1970s the church formed a national council for the smooth expansion of the church. Today, with more than a 7500 congregations, IPC has churches in all the major continents of the earth. The native leaders' vision and hard work can be primarily attributed to the growth of the IPC.
Pastor P. M. Samuel from Andhra Pradesh was chosen as the first president, K. C. Cherian as the vice president, and P. T. Chacko as the secretary. Pastor P M Samuel was followed by Pastor K E Abraham, Pastor T. G Oommen, Pastor P L Paramjyothi, Pastor V. T Joseph, Pastor K.M Joseph, Pastor K.G. Koshy, Pastor T S Abraham and Rev. Dr. K C John. The current executive committee consists of Rev. Jacob John as General President, Rev. Dr. Baby Varghese as General Vice-President and Rev. Dr. K C John as General Secretary.
Related bodies[edit]
There are many auxiliary ministries associated with IPC such as Bible Colleges & schools, Pentecostal Young People Association (PYPA),[11] Fellowship of Women - Indian Pentecostal Women's Association, Sunday School[12] and Christian publications, magazines and journals. All these auxiliary ministries have contributed to the growth of Pentecost entirely. PYPA is one of the leading auxiliary ministries and a grooming ground for new leaders and preachers for the church. Many talented ministers and believers have emerged and continue to emerge from the folds of PYPA. The Sunday school association also has been carrying a systematic ministry for years. The Sunday School consists of 14 grades and the people that faithfully complete the 14th class are awarded a Diploma in Theology from IPC Sunday School Association.
Kumbanad Convention[edit]
First General Convention of IPC was held at Kalakkattu Purayidam near Ittyappara Ranni from Wednesday 1st April to Sunday 5th April 1925.
The famous Kumbanad convention is an annual Pentecostal convention that is held by the Indian Pentecostal Church of God at Hebronpuram, Kumbanad. It is one of the oldest and the largest Pentecostal conventions in India. The convention is usually held in January and 90th Kumbanad Convention was held from Jan 19th-Jan 26th of 2014.

Nice job, it has been a while since I have seen a person with close art resemblance to that of shadowleggy since back in '07. Quite actually you have surpassed her standards, well done! Hope to see a sequel soon.
Surpassing the original? Never!
Her graphics have more details than mines (at least on her newer videos).
And yeah, there will be a sequel.
Rated 3 / 5 stars June 23, 2012
This is fairly good actually, liking the amount of detail you put into the characters and their art style is pretty easy on the eyes, only thing I'd say is perhaps spend a little more time on the backgrounds and other objects.
The animation is a little wooden and definitely needs to be made more fluid (especially the running), but thats to be expected, no one starts out as a pro. Also the humor wasn't too bad, I've seen alot of resident evil parodies now and they all tend to end up doing the same thing in terms of Barry's character, but that scene with the clock in the dining room actually made me laugh out loud.
All in all, this is better than alot of the other parodies I've seen, especially for your first full length piece. If you fine tune the animation and art style you could probably make some pretty awesome movies.
Well, I don't take things really serious. I don't wanna be famous, professional or anything.
Just to make fun of things.
I spent 2 months animating this, it's not meant to be the most amazing animation of the world.
Just a quick animation making fun of RE. That's all. Still, my subscribers on YouTube said that they liked my simple animation, it gives a more "home-made" feeling, making it even funnier.
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars June 23, 2012
That was incredibly well done, i'm looking forward to part 2, this was great comedy,
Animation was nothing special, but i was having so much fun watching it anyway.
Good job.
I'm glad you liked it.
Rated 5 / 5 stars June 23, 2012
LOLZ love your sense of humor. Are those voices from the game or voicovers?
From the original PSX game.

Ok, THAT was darn funneh! XD
Great job. Loved the piano. :)
Oh, thanks!

Living Life
What if my life changed tomorrow
Or I slept the sleep of death
Would I leave a trail of sorrow
As I struggle for each breath
Would I have time to make amends
To those that I have wronged
And tell my beloved friends
How much I've loved them all along?
What if I should live
But the life that I once knew
Came crashing down around me
And my world was all askew
Would I have the courage
To accept it and go on
Or bemoan my fate forever
Mourning a life that now is gone?
In death you have no choice
As to when it comes to call
In life...there is no timetable
When tragedy will be befall
There are no second chances
In this life that we are living
Now is the only time we have
To be loving and forgiving
Live each day completely
As though it were your last
Cherish each and every moment
For life goes by too fast

Our Products
33 Servings of Farm-Fresh Fruits and Veggies
Doctors say to eat more fruits and vegetables. Easier said than done. Maybe that's why greater than 75% of us don't get the recommended 5 to 9 a day. And we suffer for it, with a rise in health issues, when we could be turning to healing foods.
It takes 33 servings of farm-fresh fruits and veggies to make one serving of Essentials. There isn't one super ingredient in Essentials—there are many—a rich blend with antioxidants in complete whole fruit and vegetable form.*
Studies show an antioxidant-rich diet leads to a healthy life. Antioxidants are the healthy compounds found in fruits, vegetables and herbs which help neutralize the damaging free radicals created in our bodies every day. We just have to eat enough of them.
With Essentials, you can wow your doctor with your daily intake of fruits and veggies as you look and feel better from the inside out.*
Essentials is all the benefit of a diet rich in raw fruits and veggies, in three small capsules, backed by a 30-day "good inside" guarantee.
Get your 33 servings a day for only $59.95 (retail) for a 30-day supply. And shipping is FREE in the US (and discounted internationally) when on a monthly AutoShip of $100 or more. Become a Member and save $12 per bottle.
Third-party tests reveal an antioxidant (ORAC) rating of 30,000 per serving. See how antioxidants stop the rusting inside with our video short:
Inside Essentials are ingredients harvested at the peak of nutrition, with cold-processing to preserve all the goodness of earth's bounty. Only the water and fiber are removed, creating a concentrated whole food supplement that is part of your daily anti-aging defense.*
Our organic growing practices start with mineral-rich soils and non-GMO seeds, without chemical pesticides or herbicides, and we never rush the harvesting, waiting until plants reach the peak of nutritional maturity.
Whole foods contain dozens or even hundreds of phytonutrients, some yet to be discovered or defined, all working together in harmony to nurture your health. Discover the good inside the whole food ingredients of Essentials with this chart. While we can't possibly fit ALL the nutrients on one sheet, it highlights some of the diverse wholesome goodness within each plant.
We even add extra enzymes so you absorb ALL the good inside. And it's for only pennies a day. Look and feel better from the inside out with 33 servings of farm-fresh fruits and veggies in every serving!*
Our Process
We start with organic farms, with fruits and veggies picked at the peak of nutritional ripeness, before they're quickly and gently handled using cold processing. Protecting each plant from damaging heat safeguards every phytonutrient and enzyme inside.
Only the water and fiber are removed from the plant, using certified GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices). Since the temperature never gets above 106° you get all the benefits of a diet rich in raw fruits and vegetables, only our little capsules are easier to swallow.
Essentials comes in capsule form so the whole food powder concentrates are protected inside. We don't offer tablets (added binders, and too hard to digest) or juices (zapped at high heat).
Our harvesting and bottling facilities are all cGMP, certified as following Good Manufacturing Practices in everything from how ingredients are received from growers, to how each is tested for potency and purity, to how the blending of the ingredients is verified and standardized for quality assurance.
We maintain the integrity of each blend by quickly encapsulating within veggie-caps. Before placing capsules in our amber glass bottles, any excess oxygen is removed from the bottle, to reduce any risk of oxidation.
Our farm to bottle approach means your unopened whole food supplements maintain the potency of real food for up to two years from harvesting.
Antioxidant-rich foods are linked to a host of benefits for the whole body, with clinical studies published in prestigious journals.
It's important to note most health benefits observed have only happened in studies with food-based antioxidants. Single isolates (or synthetic supplements) do NOT deliver the same results, and in fact, have in some cases shown harm demonstrating that in reality, science has yet to replicate nature.
Plants are filled with hundreds of natural compounds, many yet to be discovered or defined, all working together in harmony.

Product Reviews
Got the good inside? Here is some of what our Members, Customers and Medical Professionals have shared with us about their personal experiences with our products.
"The whole food supplements of Touchstone represent the best in nutritional therapy available today."
—Maria Sulindro, M.D., ABAAM
"My experience with Essentials has been one of an energetic and digestive nature. I have noted decrease in lag time after food, more zest and life after meal times. I have also not had one runny nose, symptom or ache, and it is "cold" season. I have more stable levels of self too, what I mean is a more consistent clear mind and positive emotional flow, I feel more balanced. For a guy that has been looking for such answers for a long time, you have no idea how much I agree with the name Essentials; because that is exactly what they are."
—Michael James Rochester
"Ever since I can remember, I've had a slow metabolism and consequently chronic constipation, especially if my diet wasn't rich in fiber. It was very rare for me to go to the bathroom on a daily basis. That was until a few weeks ago when I started taking Touchstone's Essentials. I felt an immediate change. Now I can go the bathroom on a daily, regular basis, even if my diet is lacking in fiber and water. I feel great! I no longer feel bloated, on the contrary, I feel lighter and more energized!"
—Aiane M.
"I want to sincerely thank Touchstone and Melissa for introducing me to the wonderful products and company that have truly blessed me and my family's' lives so much. I honestly wake up excited and energized (not stiff, in pain and looking for meds like before I took these amazing products).
I am also shy by nature and have found it to be outside my comfort zone sharing the products and business however its getting much easier because like myself, so many others I have shared with have seen major results and changes in their lives and health, I feel I am being unkind not sharing!"
—Melody Osburn
"We are accustomed to looking at a vitamin or mineral product and saying to ourselves 'how much folic acid is in this?' or 'how much calcium is in this?' But in reality these labels reflect chemical isolates made in a laboratory. Touchstone harvests nutrients from what nature has already provided, which is a revolution in nutrition."
—Vicki Latham, PA-C
"After about 2 weeks of taking the products—Essentials, Supergreens +D, Green Energy and Pure Body—I can say that I've been sleeping quite well (something I generally struggle with). Even better, I've been waking up refreshed. Energy levels are high and I'm definitely feeling the good inside."
—Benjamin Egan
"In the age of industrial agriculture, our unique and powerful body systems require complete nutrition. Touchstone Essentials offers the completeness of whole food nutrition to meet our daily needs and to build and maintain strong, healthy bodies."
—Darrel Hestdalen, D.C., DIBAK, FASA
Got questions? Find the answers in our FAQ.
Get your questions answered when you review our FAQ. First know that Essentials is not a drug, instead providing whole food concentrates in three small capsules. Always consult with your health professional regarding your individual health questions.
How much vitamins and minerals are in Essentials?
It takes 33 servings of fruits, veggies and herbs to make one serving of Essentials, and you can see all the good inside on this wholesome chart. Each one has dozens or even hundreds of nutrients, working together in harmony.
We do not list the RDA (recommended daily allowance) panel for vitamins and minerals. Typically for supplements, those are synthetic or isolates chemically-derived (not nutrition from food). To see what's in most vitamins, you can check out this scary chart.
Since our supplements are made from real food, we use a food label. Think of it like buying apples at the store (no vitamins or minerals listed). Our ingredients are grown in nutrient-rich soils and cold-processed within hours of picking to preserve the good inside.
Can children take Essentials?
Yes. Essentials is a whole-food based supplement that is safe for all ages. To make a serving proportional to a child's size, provide one capsule daily, or open up the capsule and add the powder to food, drink or a healthy smoothie.
Can pregnant women take Essentials?
Essentials is packed with whole foods beneficial to the nutritional needs of mom and baby. As with every supplement, each person should consult with their health care professional.
What is ORAC and what does it mean for Essentials?
Foods are given an antioxidant rating, called ORAC, which stands for Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity. Or in other words, how many free radicals it can fight. While this test does not capture the entire complex of phytonutrients present in food, a higher rating indicates the presence of nutrient-rich foods.
Third party tests reveal an ORAC rating of 30,000 in every serving of Essentials. To give you an idea of how that measures up, one orange comes in with a rating of about 750. Clink here to view the third-party test results for Essentials.
Are all of the farms certified organic?
Every whole food ingredient in our supplements is grown on farms committed to organic practices, without the use of chemical pesticides or herbicides, using non-GMO seeds.
The process for organic certification can be lengthy, burdensome and costly for some small farmers, and so while all our providers are committed to organic growing practices, not every ingredient is certified organic. Ingredients that are certified organic are listed as organic on the Supplement Facts label.
Stringent quality control at our cGMP facilities (certified Good Manufacturing Practices) ensure comprehensive testing on each raw ingredient so there is nothing artificial added and nothing valuable taken out. It's simply the good inside.
What is the source and efficacy of the enzymes in Essentials?
Our multi-enzyme blend of plant-sourced enzymes is obtained from selected strains of Aspergillus oryzae by a patented fermentation process. They are specially formulated to work with the body's complex digestive system.
The enzyme blend is effective in the pH range of 3 to 9, working continuously throughout the pH variations in the digestive tract. In comparison, animal sourced enzymes are only activated in a very narrow pH range.
It has been shown that our plant-sourced enzyme blend is many times more effective than larger doses of conventional animal sourced enzymes.
What is the source and amount of astaxanthin in Essentials?
Each serving of Essentials provides 4 mg of antioxidant-rich carotenoids, including astaxanthin. Our astaxanthin comes from a vegetarian source, Haematococcous pluvialis (a type of microalgae).
How much sugar can be found in Essentials?
The amount of sugar in the Essentials is extremely low, less than 1 gram per serving (roughly a ¼ gram). It is unlikely to affect blood sugar no matter when it's taken.
Is Essentials approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA)?
The Food and Drug Administration does not "approve" any food or dietary supplements, including those of Touchstone Essentials. Only drugs receive approval from the FDA for the treatment of disease.
As whole food supplements, our products are "regulated" by the FDA as it relates to what ingredients are permitted in foods or supplements, and whether ingredients have achieved GRAS status with the FDA(Generally Recognized As Safe).
Every Touchstone Essentials supplement is fully compliant with the regulations of the Food and Drug Administration.
*These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. Our products are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease.

Keith King was kicked out at age 18 from the religious commune in Pennsylvania where he grew up. He had $150 and no place to go after he defied the elders, telling them he wanted to leave and pursue his dream of becoming a doctor.
Nearly a decade later, King beamed and kissed his pregnant wife Friday after he opened a letter saying he would soon begin practicing as a general surgery resident at Rutgers' Robert Wood Johnson Medical School in New Jersey after completing four years at the University of Maryland School of Medicine.
"This is perfect for us," said King, adding that it was a relief to be able to begin the next phase of their lives.
Now 27, King was among nearly 16,400 medical students around the country who gathered in auditoriums for the 62-year-old Match Day program, when students open letters at noon telling them which residency program accepted them. At the University of Maryland, 164 students opened letters at the Hippodrome Theatre; across town, 124 Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine students celebrated in an atrium at the East Baltimore campus.
They included people like Kimberley Lee, a Hopkins student who is the first in her family to go to college, and Debra Ravert, a University of Maryland student who gave birth to twins during her last year of school.
The Match Day tradition was designed as a fair way to assign students to residencies, where they will further their training for the next three to seven years.
Seniors choose specialties, such as internal medicine or general surgery, and interview at programs where they would like to train. The programs make their choice and a computer then matches programs with applicants after evaluating the preferences of each.
It is an emotional day as students realize four years of hard work have begun to pay off.
"Soon someone will look into your eyes and know you are their doctor," Hopkins assistant dean Dr. Michael Barone told students gathered in the sunlit atrium. "It's a pretty awesome responsibility."
Students at University of Maryland were placed at 73 hospitals in 28 states. They were called on stage one by one in random order to theme music of their choice. Some nervously ripped open their letters on stage and shared their announcement with the audience, while others opened it among family back at their seats.
Ravert sat with her six children, including two sets of twins, in a row at the Hippodrome, her babies in the arms of her mother and husband, as she and her classmates waited to discover their fate.
The 38-year-old's face lit up as she opened her letter on stage to discover she is staying in Baltimore at Johns Hopkins Hospital, where she will practice emergency medicine. She won't have to worry about relocating her large family.
"It's awesome," she said. "I don't have to sell my crappy house, and I get to practice at such a great institution."
Around the same time, students at Hopkins opened their letters all at once.
Lee clutched her open letter and her boyfriend, Eric Warner, as tears welled up in her eyes. Standing in the back of the standing-room-only atrium of the Armstrong Medical Education Building, she called her mother to tell her she was among the 42 students who would be staying in the Hopkins medical system — her first choice.
A native of Kingston, Jamaica, Lee was the first in her family to go to college. With eight years done, she'll head to Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center for a three-year residency in internal medicine. Then, she said, she'll apply for a fellowship in oncology.
Lee, 26, said her parents, a teacher and a handyman, expected her and her younger sister to go to college, but no one was sure how they'd do it. Only Lee was sure where.
Hopkins became Lee's goal at age 13 when she read renowned neurosurgeon Dr. Ben Carson's book "Gifted Hands" about his journey from inner-city Detroit to director of pediatric neurosurgery at age 33 at Hopkins.
"It was the dream," she said of Hopkins, which her family had never heard of. They initially wanted her to go to Harvard, where she also was accepted for medical school.
Still, she said, "I had no idea how I'd get to the States to get to college or anything like that. It was a childish dream almost. Fortunately, everything worked out."

An Adams County Sheriff's Deputy was shot today while responding to a bank robbery in Natchez. It happened at United Mississippi Bank on Sergeant Prentiss Road.
Three Adams County Sheriff's deputies were about to have lunch inside KFC on Highway 61 South around noon Friday when someone alerted them to a masked man about to rob the bank. The deputies looked around United Mississippi Bank on Highway 61 South when they came within feet of a gunman carrying out cash.
"As soon as he saw him he raised his firearm and fired three shots. One of which hit deputy Buddy Frank," said Sheriff Chuck Mayfield. He said the 20-year veteran deputy was shot in the leg and then fired three shots at the fleeing suspect. One bullet struck the masked man in the back.
The other two deputies pursued the robber through the Natchez Ford dealership where the suspect fired at an employee. He ran into a neighborhood, then behind the Plantation Manor Apartment complex.
"There's a creek that runs right next to him, St. Catherine Creek. It is a fairly deep ravine to get down to that. We located him on that ravine," said Sheriff Mayfield.
Kendrick Smith suffered a gunshot wound to the upper back. He was rushed to the hospital. The 23-year-old faces charges of armed robbery, three counts assault on an officer and at least one count of aggravated assault for firing at a ford dealership employee. The stolen money and a handgun were recovered.
"When it really got bad, they stood their ground and did the right thing," said Sheriff Mayfield. "I'm proud of them, proud of the department. I have the best department in the state."
Deputy Frank was treated at Natchez Regional Medical Center and released Friday. Kendrick Smith underwent emergency surgery and remains in the hospital.

DOVER, Del. (AP) - Delaware natural resources officials say more volunteers are needed to plant beach grass this weekend.
The volunteers are needed at South Bethany Beach and Delaware Seashore State Park for Delaware's annual beach grass planting on Saturday. The event begins at 9 a.m. and ends at noon.
Event coordinator Jennifer Luoma says dunes in the two areas were rebuilt after Hurricane Sandy and beach grass is needed to help stabilize them. State officials say sand dunes are essential for protection against damaging coastal storms, replenishing sand to eroded beaches.
The planting program is now in its 24th year. State officials say about 800 turned out last year and planted more than 150,000 stems of beach grass along four miles of coastline.

Hay thar. I'm a 20+ year old art student and this is my personal blog.
It's mainly to reblog stuff that interest me, which include
Be warned, I spam a lot of stuff everyday in here, your dash will be several pages longer. BE VERY WARNED. I also sometimes post some NSFW things.Main blog: ones-inspiration, which is my art/animation/writing blog thing for references and art stuff.
Sometimes I don't know if I offended someone or not by their reactions (it's hard to tell online) so... just to let you know I don't mean it, don't take it to heart. I don't joke about things, or purposely write some trolling/flame-attracting messages (unless I'm pissed off and looking for a fight, which is rare). If it seems that way, I probably phrased my words wrong or spoke too bluntly. Please be forgiving if I've made such an error.

Bad news everybody!Okay so this\'ll be short, but in all likelihood, I am going to be shutting this page down. It\'s expensive (very), and I do not think it\'s needed anymore given the success of GOG.com, Abandonia, and a few others. I simply don\'thave the time to keep it up and running, nor can do I have the time to make it the kickass community that I think it needs to be. I tried to ping abandonia about taking it over, but I never got a response. if anyone else has any alternative ideas, drop me a line at admin at hotud.org and we can figure something out.

Logical Games and Puzzles is a great collection of math puzzles coded by David Lovelock, math professor at University of Arizona. The package includes such classroom classics as Factor Game, Hurkle, and Coin Swap, but also other interesting math puzzles and games I haven't come across before, such as Grocery Bingo, Tax Collector (my favorite game of the lot), and Beans. Although most of the games are brainteasers in a sense that there is only one correct solution to the puzzles, quite a few games are more like math-inspired board games that can be replayed infinitely. This collection includes all 3 games prof. Lovelock coded, and is highly recommended to kids aged 8-15 who enjoy math, as well as anyone who loves math puzzles in the same vein as Martin Gardner's column but less difficult. Two thumbs up!

Book Description:
Boundary Methods: Elements, Contours, and Nodes presents the results of cutting-edge research in boundary-based mesh-free methods. These methods combine the dimensionality advantage of the boundary element method with the ease of discretization of mesh-free methods, both of which, for some problems, hold distinct advantages over the finite element method. After introducing some novel topics related to the boundary element method (BEM), the authors focus on the boundary contour method (BCM)-a variant of the BEM that further reduces the dimensionality of a problem. The final section of the book explores the boundary node method, which combines the BEM with moving least-squares approximants to produce a mesh-free, boundary-only method.The authors, who are also the primary developers of these methods, clearly introduce and develop each topic. In addition to numerical solutions of boundary value problems in potential theory and linear elasticity, they also discuss topics such as shape sensitivities, shape optimization, and adaptive meshing. Numerical results for selected problems appear throughout the book, as do extensive references.

Updated at 11:50 p.m.:Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for all of your attention this evening. I'll check in with you tomorrow morning.
Updated at 11:15 p.m.: On the Republican side of the 8th District congressional contest, state Rep. Austin Scott (R-Tifton), who until this spring was a candidate for governor, has apparently won the nomination without a runoff.
With 89 percent of the vote in, Scott is at 53 percent. Which prompted this bruising welcome from Doug Moore, spokesman for U.S. Rep. Jim Marshall (D-Macon):
"Austin Scott's been in the legislature his whole adult life, He's a career politician looking for his next job. Ran for governor, found no takers. Ran for Lieutenant Governor, got run off, and was told to run for Congress.
"He's voted against taxing illegal immigrants, but he's voted for, even proposed, multiple new tax increases on every Georgian.
"Politics makes strange bedfellows, but with Jim's record of protecting and helping the people of this district, it's hard to see why anyone would support Scott."
Updated at 11:02 p.m.: The following Twitter just arrived from the Republican Governors Association:
Former Dem Gov Roy Barnes has run for gov 4 times, his act is tired. More Barnes/Obama. GA won't have it. GOP candidate will run strong.
Had Karen Handel made it into a runoff against John Oxendine, there was talk that the RGA might have entered the runoff on Handel's behalf.
But that possibility disappears with Nathan Deal as Handel's second-act partner. Deal has backing that Oxendine didn't – several Georgia congressmen in particular.
Updated at 10:51 p.m.:Two Republican senators from Cobb County faced tough primary challenges tonight.
With half the vote in, Judson Hill of Marietta appears to be weathering a challenge from former state lawmaker Lynda Coker. Hill has 63 percent of the vote.
But with 62 percent of the vote in, John Wiles of Kennesaw appears headed toward defeat by challenger Lindsey Tippins, a former member of the Cobb school board.
Late last year, Wiles was embroiled in a local furor over a teen-drinking party in west Cobb. But Tippins also hammered Wiles over passage of $96 million in new fees by the state Legislature, and a $370 million hospital bed tax.
This is a race that could have repercussions when the General Assembly gathers next year.
Updated at 10:41 p.m.:The upset on the Republican side of the 7th District congressional race continues to unfold.
A runoff is all but certain, but with 36 percent of precincts reporting, Rob Woodall – former chief of staff to retiring Congessman John Linder – holds a commanding 37 percent lead.
State Rep. Clay Cox of Lilburn, the most monied candidate in the race, who was armed with the endorsements from tea party leaders and the most important inhabitants of the state Capitol, is running third, with 19 percent.
In second is Jody Hice with 27 percent. Hice is a pastor and a talk radio jockey – though he doesn't air in metro Atlanta. He's also the fellow with billboards accusing President Barack Obama of dragging the U.S. into hammer-and-sickle territory.
Hice also promised not to make robo-calls to people on the political do-not-call list.
Updated at 10:10 p.m.: Cobb County is weighing in on the GOP race for attorney general, giving former commission chairman Sam Olens a 12,000-vote bump.
He's now taken a narrow lead over Preston Smith of Rome and Max Wood of Macon.
But on the Democratic side, Ken Hodges, the former Dougherty County prosecutor, is beating state lawmaker Rob Teilhet in his native Cobb.
Overall, with nearly half the vote in, Hodges is leading with 67 percent of the vote. You can pretty much call this one done.
Updated at 10:01 p.m.:The mark of the incumbent isn't proving deadly tonight.
Secretary of State Brian Kemp, the only statewide Republican office-holder with primary opposition, has a nearly 60 percent lead over challenger Douglas MacGinnitie.
You'll recall that Gov. Sonny Perdue appointed Kemp, then a mere candidate, to finish out the term of Karen Handel, who tonight is moving on to bigger and better things.
Internal GOP resentment over Perdue's decision to weigh into the contest on behalf of a former fellow state senator doesn't seem to be playing out at the grassroots.
(MacGinnitie has since conceded, we're told.)
Updated at 9:51 p.m.: With a quarter of the Hall County vote in, Nathan Deal is pulling 63 percent, or 7,600 ballots. They like him up there.
Next closest is Karen Handel with 1,810 votes, or 15 percent.
Updated at 9:16 p.m.: Fifty-seven percent of the vote has been counted in Fayette County, a solidly Republican place with no geographic ties to any of the GOP candidates for governor.
The standings:
– Karen Handel, 4,401 votes;
– Nathan Deal, 2,690 votes;
– Eric Johnson, 1,975 votes;
– And John Oxendine, 1,550 votes.
The campaign by the fellow with the most cash and the most television time appears to be cratering.
Updated at 9:16 p.m.: At least in rural Georgia, we have a barn-burner of a GOP race for attorney general.
Max Wood of Macon, Preston Smith of Rome, and Sam Olens of Cobb County are all within 800 or so votes of each other.
But the big surburban counties, including Cobb, have yet to weigh in.
Updated at 9:08 p.m.: We may have our first upset of the evening brewing in the 7th District race to replace U.S. Rep. John Linder.
In an eight-man Republican field, Rob Woodall – Linder's former chief of staff – is leading state lawmaker Clay Cox, 39 percent to 23 percent.
Cox is the designated candidate of the tea partyists and Gov. Sonny Perdue, plus House Speaker David Ralston. Woodall leads in all three counties in the district, but most massively in Gwinnett.
Jody Hice, the talk radio pastor, is close behind Cox, at 20 percent — apparently splitting the conservative Christian vote.
Updated at 8:56 p.m.: No signs of a tea party revolt in GOP state Senate races – so far.
With 8 percent of precincts reporting, Senate Rules Chairman Don Balfour (R-Snellville) is drawing 63 percent of the vote against two challengers.
Updated at 8:45 p.m.: U.S. Rep. Hank Johnson doesn't appear to be capsizing in the 4th District congressional race. He's at 56 percent above Vernon Jones (23 percent) and Connie Stokes (20 percent).
But those returns are only from the Rockdale and Gwinnett county portions of the Fourth.
Updated at 8:37 p.m.: From the Associated Press:
Georgia's newest congressman, Rep. Tom Graves, is leading a crowded Republican primary field barely a month after he won a special election in the state's 9th District.
Unofficial early returns Tuesday showed Graves with 49 percent of the vote, well ahead of his five GOP challengers, with 10 percent of precincts reporting.
Lee Hawkins of Gainesville, the man Graves defeated in a June runoff election, was second with 19 percent.
Updated at 8:30 p.m. Only 7 percent of the vote is in from Gwinnett County, the base of state Insurance Commissioner John Oxendine. But Oxendine is running fourth, behind former state senator Eric Johnson of Savannah.
Updated at 8:22 p.m.: Early returns have Jim Martin leading by 56 percent in the three-way Democratic race for school superintendent.
Updated at 8:12 p.m.: In the Democratic race for attorney general, Ken Hodges, the former Dougherty County prosecutor, is kicking it with 72 percent of the vote over Cobb County state lawmaker Rob Teilhet.
But reports are largely rural, so no celebrations yet.
On the Republican side, Sam Olens of Cobb County is running behind both Max Wood of Macon and Preston Smith of Floyd County. But again, those are rural votes talking. Suburbia has yet to weigh in.
Posted at 7:59 p.m.: The real suspense of the evening, obviously, is on the Republican side of the race for governor.
Here's the county-by-county link to the secretary of state's web site.
One can hardly get worked up over whether Roy Barnes will win the Democratic nomination with or without a runoff. Besides, that will be determined by Fulton and DeKalb counties – usually the slowest to report full returns.
I'll be keeping my eye on Gwinnett County, the geographic base of state Insurance Commissioner John Oxendine. If he falters there, this could be a long night for the most familiar man on the statewide Republican ballot.
So far Gwinnett hasn't shown up in the returns.
On the Democratic side, keep an eye on Carol Porter and the race for lieutenant governor. Her campaign has harbored secret worries that her opponent, Patricia McCracken, could be another Alvin Greene.
You have to admit, "Let loose the Cracken!" would make a fine slogan for November.
We'll be rolling on this post through the evening, so feel free to add any harbingers you see – in any race, statewide or local.

Handel wants to get rid of the illegals.
Oxendine wants to get rid of the state income tax.
Both are fine by me and I'm fine with either winning. Two things however bode well for Handel. One is that Palin endorsement does mean something in Gwinnett. People here identify with that small town value set she comes from. The other thing is that we are more than overburdened by illegals here. My guess is that has more resonance than Oxendine, who has name recognition -but no punch in the last few days.
Poor turnout though, only die hard politicos like me were at the polls where I live.
July 20th, 2010
8:30 pm
Sorry, but Oxendine winning the GOP nod will mean a return to "the good old boys" with Roy Barnes back in power. Handel is the best best to keep that old washed-up windbag in Mableton.

It will be interesting to see which Repub wins and will have to carry the load of increasing the wealth for the wealthy while screwing the majority of us. Look for no support for education, health care, unemployment benefits or rail transportation from the Repubs. If you're making less than $500,000 a year like me, you'll be sensible enough to vote Democratic.

Also, I'd like to explain the Woodall upset against Cox coming from Gwinnett and neighbors. THIS IS FAIR TAX COUNTRY BABY!!!! Woodall is Linder's handpicked successor and a major supporter of the Fair Tax. We want that. Jekyllover – really? Most of us make significantly less than 500K. Nice try portraying us as the rich party – in fact we are the working party as opposed to the 'give me a handout' party.

I vote for ROY BARNES is a vote to bring OBAMA'S politics to this state. If you LIKE having your hard-earned money going to those that are ABLE but WON'T work and to those that aren't even supposed to be in this country, then yes vote for Roy. If you want to have your "wealth" redistributed, then yes, vote for Roy. If you want your tax dollars paying for abortions, then yes, vote for Roy. If you want to see YOUR hard-earned money staying in your pocket, to be spent as YOU see fit, then vote AGAINST Roy.

I grew up in Mableton, went to South Cobb High with some of ole Roy's relatives. People you have to be crazy to want this "good ole boy" leading this state. It is time for new blood and new leadership in this state. Ole Roy and some of the others just keeps the good ole boys laughing at all the fools that voted them into office. For God's sake WAKE UP and lets get someone that will at least try to make things better here instead of the same ole BS from the career politicians.

Nothing like outsourcing a Congressional seat to a carpetbagging import like Woodall. Since the Fair Tax has no chance of even remote passage, what is Woodall going to do for the next cycle or two? With everything facing America, we're putting some outsider single issue guy in our seat. And leaving it to Linder to appoint his successor. We're just along for the ride….good job 7th. Way to be pawns manipulated by the public servants.

Hopefully the arrogant Mr. Scott, friend of Tyrone Brooks and co-chair of the Georgia state Bush for President campaign in 2000, will get his comeuppance from Jim Marshall and the voters in November.

We tried having the tank cleanse himself with Steelbreaker but we found that it's quite hard because of the GCDs - the tank has to stop generating aggro to spam Cleanse, and a mage or hunter could easily pull the boss off the tank during this. Besides, if you make a mistake and end up on a GCD when you get fusion punched, you're dead. We found that using a Paladin DPS to cleanse the tank work wonders, as they tend to have a GCD or two spare as it is.
When doing the hard mode, we had the MT (me :D) tank both Steelbreaker and Molgiem at the front of the room, taking down Molgiem first. Once he's dead all dps switch to the little guy at the back leaving me and a healer alone with Steelbreaker. At this point it's easy enough for the tank to cleanse himself, as no one is generating aggro on the boss.

one who tailgates; one who insists on riding the ass - hence the term "fag" - of the vehicle in front of him. Such behavior arises from the deluded notion that close proximity will cause the other motorist to speed up or pull over, but turns out to be little more than a futile prepubescent grasp at control caused by a pronounced inferiority complex.
