Hang tight!
Recipe by John Pickett
"This recipe will produce the biggest biscuits in the history of the world! Serve these gems with butter, preserves, honey, gravy or they can also be used as dinner rolls...you get the picture. The dough can also be prepared several hours, and up to a day ahead of time. If so, turn dough out onto aluminum foil that has been either floured, lightly buttered or lightly sprayed with cooking spray. Roll up foil until it is sealed, and refrigerate. Don't be surprised if your biscuits rise even higher because the baking powder has had more time to act in the dough. You may have to make a few batches before you get desired results: desired results equals huge mongo biscuits."

ok, I come from a family of very picky biscuit lovers. I looked all summer for a soft big biscuit and have FOUND IT ! I don't see why people have had problems with these. They are great and i make them all the time. I do substitute butter or margarine for the shortning, better flavor. For those who didn't get the desired results -- Try these tips: 1.Don't overmix the dough once you add the milk and only pat together (no real "kneading" or they will be tough). 2.only add the amount of milk you need, some days i have to use it all and then others i have a little left in the cup. 3. make sure the shortning or butter is cold 4.can brush with melted butter before and/or after baking for added softness and flavor and 5. can place closer together if yours still aren't soft
Hope these help and thank you so much JP !!
These biscuits tasted OK, but they were very dense and doughy. (Is that a word?) The search for a great biscuit recipe continues.

Very good! I make them with half whole wheat flour and half all purpose, and I use butter instead of shortening (I like to avoid trans fats). This is the biscuit recipe I added to my permanent file.
**If you're new to biscuits, remember - any time you make biscuits (or scones or anything else that uses baking powder or soda to rise) you want to gently mix the dough JUST until the ingredients are all mixed-- don't maul it or knead it. The more you handle your dough the more the gluten develops and the tougher your biscuits (or pie crust, etc.) will be. :)
Mandy14 - The instructions say to knead 14-14 TIMES, NOT 14-15 minutes! The object is to handle the dough as little as possible.
Excellent recipe !
Being a single guy -no shortening or milk in the fridge, I used butter and a cup of beer.
Go ahead and laugh, but they came out great.
These biscuits had a great texture, rose beautifully and were so easy to make. The only drawback was that they were bland and definitely had a slight baking powder taste. I made them a second time and substituted cultured buttermilk powder (4 TBS Saco brand) + 1 c. water in place of the milk; dropped the baking powder back to 2 tsp; and added 1/2 tsp baking soda. Oh my goodness....perfection....so flavorful and soft and fluffy! Absolutely the best I've ever made or eaten -- and I'm a southern girl who knows what a really great biscuit should be! :) JP, your recipe is a winner -- thank you so much! With the minor changes I mentioned, this will forever be my one and only biscuit recipe! If anyone else wants to try the changes, you can use liquid buttermilk instead of the powder if you'd like, but the powder always seems to give me better results.
These are exceptionally good. Very similar to my mom's "baking powder biscuits", but these are moister then hers. I made the "creamed chicken over biscuits" recipe from this site to go with these. My 16 month old son loved it, he said mmmmm and clapped his hands. I cut out 6, and didn't get "Grand Biscuit" size as stated. I also only needed to use 3/4 c. milk instead of 1 c.. My mom says that the barometer affects how your biscuits turn out, (works the same with anything with yeast, such as bread) so, if it's raining or very humid, they won't rise as well. If it's hot and dry, they should rise beautifully. So I kind of go by that when I am adding the liquid and flour (amounts). After you've made enough biscuits, you can tell how their going to turn out by how the (uncooked) dough looks and feels. I was thinking about the post that said they turned out dry on the outside and moist inside, if they seem very hard, then I would think possibly, they were cooked at too high a temp. and/or were left in too long. Because my oven is very hot, I always turn it down by 25 degrees, and never assume that the time stated is going to be "perfect" for my oven, so I checked these after 10 minutes, and then watched them 2 to 3 minutes after. Anyway, you should enjioy these.
Simple and tasty!
One tip though...don't knead the dough! Kneading this mixing with produce a tough textured biscuit.
Mix it just till it holds together...pat into a 1 1/2 inch thick circle...then cut out.

Interpretive Handbook
9160 :
Calcitonin, Serum
Clinical Information Discusses physiology, pathophysiology, and general clinical aspects, as they relate to a laboratory test
In the normal physiological situation, calcitonin is a polypeptide hormone secreted by the parafollicular cells (also referred to as calcitonin cells or C cells) of the thyroid gland. The main action of calcitonin is the inhibition of bone resorption by regulating the number and activity of osteoclasts. Calcitonin is secreted in direct response to serum hypercalcemia and may prevent large oscillations in serum calcium levels and excessive loss of body calcium. However, in comparison to parathyroid hormone and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D, the role of calcitonin in the regulation of serum calcium in humans is minor. Measurements of serum calcitonin levels are, therefore, not useful in the diagnosis of disorders of calcium homeostasis.
Malignant tumors arising from thyroid C cells (medullary thyroid carcinoma: MTC) usually produce elevated levels of calcitonin. MTC is an uncommon malignant thyroid tumor, comprising <5% of all thyroid malignancies. Approximately 25% of these cases are familial, usually appearing as a component of multiple endocrine neoplasia type II (MENII, Sipple syndrome). MTC may also occur in families without other associated endocrine dysfunction, with similar autosomal dominant transmission as MENII, which is then called familial medullary thyroid carcinoma (FMTC). Mutations in the RET proto-oncogene are associated with MENII and FMTC.
Other neuroectodermal endocrine tumors, particularly islet cell tumors, may also produce calcitonin, but do so much less frequently. Calcitonin elevations also may occur with:
-Cancer of the lung, breast, or pancreas
-Intestinal, gastric, or bronchial carcinoids
-Chronic renal failure, Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, or pernicious anemia
-Pregnant females at term
Useful For Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful
Diagnosis and follow-up of medullary thyroid carcinoma
Adjunct to diagnosis of multiple endocrine neoplasia type II and familial medullary thyroid carcinoma
Occasionally useful in the diagnosis and follow-up of islet cell tumors
Interpretation Provides information to assist in interpretation of the test results
Although most patients with sporadic medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) have high basal calcitonin levels, 30% of those with familial MTC or multiple endocrine neoplasia type II (MENII) have normal basal levels. In the past, these individuals may have required a calcium infusion provocative test (short calcium infusion with blood drawing at 0, 5, and 10 minutes) to demonstrate the abnormality. Mutation screening (MENMS / Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia Type 2 [2A, 2B, FMTC] Mutation Screen) of RET has largely superseded calcium infusion provocative testing. Calcium infusion tests are now only necessary in suspected familial cases belonging to 1 of the 5% to 10% of MEN/FMTC (multiple endocrine neoplasia/familial medullary thyroid carcinoma) families without detectable RET mutations. For these rare cases, the Mayo Clinic Endocrine Testing Unit should be consulted for additional information on the short calcium infusion test, including necessary precautions.
In completely cured cases following surgical therapy for MTC, serum calcitonin levels fall into the undetectable range over a variable period of several weeks. Persistently elevated postoperative serum calcitonin levels usually indicate incomplete cure. The reasons for this can be locoregional lymph node spread or distant metastases. In most of these cases, imaging procedures are required for further workup. Those individuals who are then found to suffer only locoregional spread may benefit from additional surgical procedures. However, the survival benefits derived from such approaches are still debated.
A rise in previously undetectable or very low postoperative serum calcitonin levels is highly suggestive of disease recurrence or spread, and should trigger further diagnostic evaluations.
Cautions Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances
This test is not useful for evaluating calcium metabolic diseases.
Falsely elevated values may occur in serum from patients who have developed human antimouse antibodies or heterophilic antibodies.
Values obtained with different assay methods or kits may be different and cannot be used interchangeably. Test results cannot be interpreted as absolute evidence for the presence or absence of malignant disease.
Reference Values Describes reference intervals and additional information for interpretation of test results. May include intervals based on age and sex when appropriate. Intervals are Mayo-derived, unless otherwise designated. If an interpretive report is provided, the reference value field will state this.
Males: <16 pg/mL
Females: <8 pg/mL
Males: < or =130 pg/mL
Females: < or =90 pg/mL

Same Universe, Different Lenses: Science, Ethics, and Religion in Dialogue

This is a transcript of an interview given by Dr. Jennifer Wiseman at The Faith Angle Forum Conference on Religion, Politics, & Public Life on November 5, 2013.
In recent decades, evangelical Biblical scholars have reconsidered non-literal interpretations of Genesis. The Accommodation view of St. Augustine and John Calvin is supported by recent discoveries about ancient cultures. Literature from these cultures shows interesting parallels and differences with Genesis accounts. The differences are striking, such as stories where creation is a battle among many gods rather than the acts of one sovereign Creator. The similarities, however, show how God accommodated his message so that the Israelites could understand it. For example, the Egyptians and Babylonians thought the sky was a solid dome. This solid dome appears in Genesis 1 as the firmament created on day 2. God did not try to correct the "science" of the Israelites by explaining that the sky was a gaseous atmosphere. Instead, God accommodated his message to their cultural context. Many evangelical Biblical scholars have concluded that Genesis is not meant to teach scientific information.
Brian Godawa looks at several aspects of ancient cosmography (descriptions of the universe) that also appear in the Bible, and what these aspects of the text mean for our understanding of Scripture.
Philosopher Robert Bishop explores the Biblical doctrine of creation, which he describes as "perhaps one of the most helpful pieces of theology for thinking about science", and describes why the doctrine needs to be recovered from narrower, contemporary interpretations of creation.
In this paper, theologian John Wesley Wright reviews Connor Cunningham's book Darwin's Pious Idea, a work that deeply explores the integration of Darwinian evolutionary theory and Christian faith.
Biologist and BioLogos Senior Fellow Denis Venema examines the interaction between RTB literature and several lines of genetics-based evidence for common ancestry. In so doing, he also addresses the scientific robustness and reliability of the RTB model.
"As a Christian and a biblical scholar, I care both about Scripture as truth and about the ongoing scholarly conversation regarding the composition of the Hebrew Scriptures. And so, when I was asked to speak on the story of creation in Genesis 1, I welcomed the opportunity to give my thoughts on the interaction between this text and its ancient Near Eastern context."
The literary conventions employed in Genesis chapter 1 mark it out, not as a scientific document describing material origins, but as a theological polemic against surrounding ancient Near Eastern pagan religions. Creation language here and elsewhere in Scripture is not about establishing scientific origins of material substance and structure but about covenantal establishment and worldview.
Professor Denis Lamoureux presents the theory of evolutionary creation, which claims that the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit created the universe and life through an ordained, sustained, and design-reflecting evolutionary process. The view of origins, says Lamoureux, fully embraces both the religious beliefs of biblical Christianity and the scientific theories of cosmological, geological, and biological evolution.
NASA astronomer Jennifer Wiseman asserts that studying creation can show us the nature of God; science can inform us of what we need to do as stewards of God's creation; understanding the natural world gives us a deeper knowledge of Jesus Christ; and science can give us a better understanding of ourselves. This essay was presented at the November 2009 Theology of Celebration Workshop.
Renowned Old Testament scholar Bruce Waltke considers eleven barriers that prevent evangelical theologians from accepting evolution as a possible means of creation and what these barriers tell us about the tensions perceived by many Evangelicals between science and faith. Waltke's work was based on a survey sent to members of the Fellowship of Evangelical Seminary Presidents and their faculty.
Many independent measurements have established that the Earth and the universe are billions of years old. Geologists have found annual layers in glaciers that can be counted back 740,000 years. Using the known rate of change in radio-active elements (radiometric dating), some Earth rocks have been shown to be billions of years old, while the oldest solar system rocks are dated at 4.6 billion years. Astronomers use the distance to galaxies and the speed of light to calculate that the light has been traveling for billions of years. The expansion of the universe gives an age for the universe as a whole: 13.7 billion years old.
(Updated April 16, 2012)
Many arguments claiming to prove the existence of God have been proposed throughout the centuries. The response to many of these arguments, however, is: "If God created the world, what created God?" It suggests that certain arguments for God's existence only push the question of beginnings one step farther back. The Bible and Christian doctrine address this question by defining God as eternal and uncreated, but such answers rarely satisfy nonbelievers. A philosophical response is that God is the ultimate first cause; the atheist is left with a dilemma of what or who that first cause might have been. In the end, an uncaused creator may simply be a more plausible explanation for the universe we live in. Our universe appears to have had a beginning, to be finely tuned for life, and to have a place for love and purpose. These appearances affirm as plausible a prior belief in God.
Fine-tuning refers to the surprising precision of nature's physical constants, and the beginning state of the Universe. To explain the present state of the universe, even the best scientific theories require that the physical constants of nature and the beginning state of the Universe have extremely precise values.
We at BioLogos believe that God used the process of evolution to create all the life on earth today. While we accept the science of evolution, we emphatically reject evolutionism. Evolutionism is the atheistic worldview that says life developed without God and without purpose. Instead, we agree with Christians who adhere to Intelligent Design and Creationism that the God of the Bible created the universe and all life. Christians disagree, however, on how God created. Young Earth Creationists believe that God created just 6,000 to 10,000 years ago and disagree with much of mainstream science. Supporters of Intelligent Design accept more of evolutionary science, but argue that some features of life are best explained by direct intervention by an intelligent agent rather than by God's regular way of working through natural processes. We at BioLogos agree with the modern scientific consensus on the age of the earth and evolutionary development of all species, seeing these as descriptions of how God created. The term BioLogos comes from the Greek words bios (life) and logos (word), referring to the opening of the Gospel of John. "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made."

2 Longhorns suspended after assault report
SAN ANTONIO (AP) - Texas has suspended two football players and sent them home on the eve of the Alamo Bowl.
The decision comes hours after police say they were investigating a report of a sexual assault at a San Antonio hotel.
Coach Mack Brown did not identify the players, but he referred to a KENS-TV report that police were investigating two Texas players in the alleged assault.
A police spokesman says that detectives are in the early stages of investigating the case.
Texas (8-4) plays Oregon State (9-3) in Saturday's bowl game.

The latter. The 'i' remains long. Here, the consonant does not change the pronunciation of the syllables in front of it.

Damask is a popular fabric woven so that a pattern is produced by the different directions of the thread, without contrast of color. This weaving technique, named after the city of Damascus in Syria where the silk trade routes from the Far East ended in ancient times, produces a strong material of subtle beauty.

Sales of previously built homes slipped in November to their lowest level in six months as the supply of properties remained tight, an unexpected setback in what has shaped up to be a disappointing year for the housing market.

Orphek DIF-50 50 Watt 120 Degree LED Pendant - UV/blue
Revolutionary, Powerful, Efficient, Versatile, Durable
It is a fact that blue LEDs provide low lumens/watt. The Orphek R&D team invented a revolutionary emitter with a new TWO-in-ONE technology for use in the DIF Series Pendants: the first LED lighting solution mimicking a halide style light, without the addition of blue LEDs for daylight effect, offering you several color temperatures options: 16000k and 18000k. That means you won't need to install an extra blue LED fixture to achieve a daylight effect for your tank.
The DIF Series pendants are solutions for large reef aquariums, aquaculture facilities, and public aquariums with three different power options, and 02 interchangeable lenses in 60 and 120 degrees to choose from, according to your needs.
DIF-100 – 100 watts
– Our DIF-100 fixture easily replaces a 400w metal halide.
DIF-50 – 50 watts
– Our DIF-50 fixture replaces a 250w fixture.
DIF-30 – 30 watts
- Our DIF-30 fixture replaces a 150w fixture.
Suitable for the depths utilized by public aquariums.
Depending on the lens being used, these lights are perfect for lighting large areas 24" (or shallower), or very deep (up to 72+") aquariums with 60 degree lens. You will achieve a 36" × 36" coverage area with 120 degree lens at 12" of suspension height with the DIF-100 and 120 degree lens.
By using high quality, custom ground, interchangeable optics and providing an incredibly efficient LED chip, Orphek has surmounted previous LED depth and spread hurdles and pushed LED lighting technology even further!
Two-in-One Technology mimicking a halide style light, without addition of blue LED for daylight.
Color temperature from 16000k to 18000K (check our spectrographs and photometrics).
Easy to be installed, our DIF series LED pendants are designed for plug-and-play use.
Pendants are entirely self-contained, not requiring external ballast or fan.
Completely rustproof, and can easily be suspended by the included suspension hook.
Incredibly versatile, pendants are available in three power options: 100 watts, 50 watts, and 30 watts, and the lenses are easily changed between 60, and 120 degrees.
Cool operating temperature.
Are environmentally friendly.
All Orphek products are warranted for one year against manufacturing defects. The diodes are covered for three years. During this period we will repair or replace the defective unit or part at our discretion.
This warranty does not cover any claims for consequential loss or damage. Orphek shall not be held liable for damage to any aquarium, aquarium life forms, or any other personal objects due to improper use of the device.

Each newborn baby is carefully checked at birth for signs of problems or complications. A complete physical assessment will be performed that includes every body system. Throughout the hospital stay, physicians, nurses and other healthcare providers continually assess a baby for changes in health and for signs of problems or illness. Assessment may include:
The Apgar score is one of the first checks of your new baby's health. The Apgar score is assigned in the first few minutes after birth to help identify babies that have difficulty breathing or have a problem that needs further care. The baby is checked at one minute and five minutes after birth for heart and respiratory rates, muscle tone, reflexes, and color.
Each area can have a score of zero, one or two, with ten points as the maximum. A total score of ten means a baby is in the best possible condition. Nearly all babies score between eight and ten, with one or two points taken off for blue hands and feet because of immature circulation. If a baby has a difficult time during delivery, this can lower the oxygen levels in the blood, which can lower the Apgar score. Apgar scores of three or less often mean a baby needs immediate attention and care. However, only 1.4 percent of babies have Apgar scores less than seven at five minutes after birth.
A baby's birth weight is an important indicator of health. The average weight for term babies (born between 37 and 41 weeks gestation) is about 7 lbs. (3.2 kg). In general, small babies and very large babies are at greater risk for problems. Babies are weighed daily in the nursery to assess growth, fluid and nutrition needs. Newborn babies may lose as much as 10 percent of their birth weight. This means that a baby weighing 7 pounds 3 ounces at birth might lose as much as 10 ounces in the first few days. Premature and sick babies may not begin to gain weight right away.
Most hospitals use the metric system for weighing babies.
Converting grams to pounds and ounces:
1 lb. = 453.59237 grams; 1 oz. = 28.349523 grams; 1,000 grams = 1 Kg.
Other measurements are also taken of each baby. These include the following:
A complete physical examination is an important part of newborn care. Each body system is carefully examined for signs of health and normal function. The physician also looks for any signs of illness or birth defects. Physical examination of a newborn often includes assessment of:
Assessing a baby's physical maturity is an important part of care. Maturity assessment is helpful in meeting a baby's needs if the dates of a pregnancy are uncertain. For example, a very small baby may actually be more mature than it appears by size, and may need different care than a premature baby.
An examination called The Dubowitz/Ballard Exam for Gestational Age is often used. A baby's gestational age often can be closely estimated using this exam. The Dubowitz/Ballard Exam evaluates a baby's appearance, skin texture, motor function and reflexes. The physical maturity part of the exam is done in the first two hours of birth. The neuromuscular maturity examination is completed within 24 hours after delivery. Information often used to help estimate babies physical and neuromuscular maturity are shown below.
The physical assessment part of the Dubowitz/Ballard Exam looks at physical characteristics that look different at different stages of a baby's gestational maturity. Babies who are physically mature usually have higher scores than premature babies.
Points are given for each area of assessment, with a low of -1 or -2 for extreme immaturity to as much as 4 or 5 for post-maturity.
Six evaluations of the baby's neuromuscular system are performed. These include:
A score is assigned to each assessment area. Typically, the more neurologically mature the baby, the higher the score.
When the physical assessment score and the neuromuscular score are added together, the gestational age can be estimated. Scores range from very low for immature babies (less than 26 to 28 weeks) to very high scores for mature and post-mature babies.
All of these examinations are important ways to learn about your baby's well-being at birth. By identifying any problems, your baby's physician can plan the best possible care.

Ever been street harassed, been the butt of a sexist joke, or been subjected to any sexist comment and thought of the best comeback hours later? The Guardian has gathered some great examples of comebacks put forth by The Everyday Sexism Project via Twitter.
Here are some highlights.
@EverydaySexism A man once pointed out loudly that I have huge boobs. I looked down at them and screamed like I'd never noticed them before
— Rosie Balls (@RosieBalls) December 5, 2013
@EverydaySexism Last time a man called me a bitch for ignoring his unwelcome advances, I barked at him loudly & repeatedly until he ran away
— Bluestocking (@MistressLoz) December 5, 2013
@EverydaySexism On train home guy rubs my bum. I grab hand, lift it in the air & say "has anyone lost a hand? I found this one on my arse!"
— Manners Punk (@punk_manners) December 5, 2013
@EverydaySexism flashed at on a bus when I was 19. Snorted and said I'd seen more meat on a butcher's apron. Flasher got off bus head low
— Rachel Mistletone (@Rachel_Malone) December 5, 2013
@EverydaySexism New job,1st meeting, only woman, suit asks where's the coffee? Reply Don't know, but when you find it mine's white no sugar
— Karen Evans (@Karen_M_Evans) December 5, 2013
@EverydaySexism A friend heard a guy shout 'Sit on my face!' at a girl who replied 'Why, is your nose bigger than your dick?' AMAZING!
— Vicky C. (@_Vickycee) December 5, 2013
@EverydaySexism Male colleague: "Don't mind her, she's on her period." Me: "If I had to bleed to find you annoying, I'd be anaemic."
— Rowan (@AlternateRowan) December 5, 2013
@EverydaySexism Guy on train after I asked him to move his bag off seat: "Why don't you grab my cock?" Me: "I didn't bring any tweezers."
— Rebecca J.F. (@DemonicDragon) December 5, 2013
@EverydaySexism Him: "Look darlin, I don't mean to hassle you but…" Me: "WELL THEN DON'T HASSLE ME." ...Then he got aggressive #charmer
— Áine Ryan (@AineSays) December 5, 2013
@EverydaySexism Bloke: 'you're a bit too thin for me'. Me: 'that's lucky because you're a bit too thick for me'.
— Katherine Atkinson (@ScattKat) December 5, 2013
@EverydaySexism Managed to stop white van full of men mid-catcall by shoving a big powdery donut into my mouth then smiling with mouth full
— Cleo R (@CleoR7) December 5, 2013
@EverydaySexism a guy kept harrassing me for my phone number so I gave him the number of another sexist, figured they'd have a lot in common
— Amanda (@KrezzyNL) December 5, 2013
I've actually tried this one before. The harassers looked like fools.
@EverydaySexism when I get harassed I always pretend I didn't hear & say "what?" The more they have to repeat the sillier they sound.
— Kari Berry (@KariAnnSpriggs) December 5, 2013
These two show examples of how men can respond when they observe acts of sexism.
Another recent fave from a man: "Apparently the answer to 'are you a legs man or a tits man' isn't 'sorry I'm not a sexist'"
— EverydaySexism (@EverydaySexism) December 5, 2013
@EverydaySexism Ran up excitedly to car filled with dudes after they hooted at my friends. They sped away.
— Tauriq Moosa (@tauriqmoosa) December 5, 2013
Check out this article from The Guardian and The Everyday Sexism Project's Twitter page for more!
************************Picture source: Mike Funk*****************************
ETA: If any of you have some of your own clever comebacks to sexist remarks, let me know in the comments below or Tweet at my cat @bishfacebobby. I'll feature the winners below.
From collierLA:
For anything that you think the speaker might mean as "flattery," just look 'em up and down.
"Sorry I can't return the...compliment."
Optional addition: "See how nice it is to get unsolicited opinions on your appearance from random strangers?" 24 minutes ago
From pteridophyta:
I didn't even do it on purpose, but I once did the most massive fart when a guy grabbed my butt.
Sometimes people's butts are concentrating on holding farts in! Do not distract the butt!7 minutes ago
From weaselina:
Dude-"Suck my dick!"
Me-"Nah, I would rather not get pin-pricks in my gums." 12 minutes ago
From longfork:
Man flashed a group of us at a dance club. I turned to the woman drinking next to me and said:
"Look! It's like a penis, only smaller!"
She did a spit take, and he slunk off to some other part of the establishment, his tail between his legs... 20 minutes ago
From SRJay
Why is it that the same men who say women need to grow a thicker skin and a sense of humor about harassment also say "respect my feelings, bitch" when we do just that and shove their unwanted advances back in their faces? 12/09/13 12:26pm

Denis Alexander on Understanding Creation Theology
In this video Conversation, Denis Alexander asserts that contemporary Christians are not taking the early chapters of Genesis seriously enough.
The Resource Finder has powerful filtering features — check out the tutorial to learn more.
In this video Conversation, Denis Alexander asserts that contemporary Christians are not taking the early chapters of Genesis seriously enough.
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.
In this talk, originally delivered at the BioLogos President's Circle meeting in October 2012, Dr. John Walton discusses the origin stories of Genesis 1-3, and why their focus on function and archetypes mean there is no Biblical narrative of material origins.
In this excerpt from the book Delight in Creation: Scientists Share Their Work with the Church, astronomer Deborah Haarsma shares her excitement about recent findings about our universe from a Christian perspective.
Gregg Davidson and Ken Wolgemuth seek to remove the stumbling block of the Genesis flood in this four part series. Though many believe in an ancient world-wide flood, the evidence given does not hold up to geological scrutiny, but points rather to something regional instead. It is their hope that Christians will not walk away from faith in Christ simply because a global flood is not supported by science. Looking at natural phenomena like the Grand Canyon, salt beds, and fossil deposits, they reveal reasons for these deposits and structures while showing that their origin did not stem from a violent flood that covered the planet.
At a press conference on July 4, 2012, and with 99.99994% confidence (5 sigma), CERN announced the discovery of a particle consistent with that of a Higgs boson (a.k.a. "the God particle"). This is very exciting for elementary particle physicists. But what is the Higgs particle, and what is its meaning?
The discovery of the Higgs boson would certainly be a breakthrough for particle physics and cosmology, but would such a finding also radically redefine theology's understanding of God or challenge the existence of such a deity? Is there actually any theological or religious significance in Higgs physics at all?
BioLogos is pleased to share excerpts from Karl Giberson's book The Wonder of the Universe: Hints of God in a Fine-Tuned World. It presents a two-part argument: in the first section Giberson outlines the history of our understanding of the universe, emphasizing the reliability of our knowledge of its properties and its history. In particular he outlines the remarkable evidence of design. In part two of the book, however, he discusses the complexities of drawing inferences from the design of the universe, cautioning against arguments that fine-tuning of the universe proves the existence of God.
Baylor University Physicist Gerald Cleaver describes the changing state of our understanding of the cosmos and suggests ways that Christians can make theological sense of a theoretical Multiverse.
The BioLogos Forum is pleased to present this infographic about science and faith in America. The graphic uses data from Gallup Research, The New York Times, and the Pew Research Center to show what Americans currently believe about the origins of humans.
In this brief series (taken from a 2009 paper), Jennifer Wiseman uses an excerpt from the famous hymn "How Great Thou Art," to explain why the study of God's creation can lead Christ's followers into meaningful worship and overcome the obstacles which impede true praise. Creation as encountered through our senses is pondered by our minds, which flows into wonder-filled songs from the soul. She further explains how knowledge of creation will help Christians to address the moral dilemmas of science, and she encourages all to see the process of scientific inquiry as a means to discover God's truth.
In addressing the subject of creation, William P. Brown contends that there is not one story but seven contained in the sacred texts of the Judeo-Christian tradition. The books of Genesis, Job, Psalms, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, and Isaiah each provide unique perspectives of the natural world.
In this video, Aaron Daly offers his thoughts on theistic evolution, creation, and how Christians should handle disagreements over these issues. Most of all, Aaron highlights the need for love in our discussions with one another, especially when we disagree.
I find that when many Christians think about the way God created our universe, they often bring a static expectation similar to what we bring to an ordinary statue. It's as if we assume the physical realm were merely a rigid three-dimensional sculpture, immovable with time.
Clearly explaining the science, the authors focus on areas where Christians agree. They also present the strengths and weaknesses of areas where Christians differ. -Amazon
In this six part series, Brian Godawa takes a closer look at cosmography and its relationship to the Bible. After defining cosmography as a theory that describes features of the heavens and the earth, he relates how his own views about the universe have shifted. He then continues to talk about the Mesopotamian cosmography that is so consistently reflected in Scripture. This view of the universe includes aspects such as the firmament, the pillars, the underworld, the heavens above, the watery abyss. He then explains how one understands these concepts in terms of modern scientific thought.
Robert C. Bishop explains that many believe two things about creation: that the universe was created out of nothing by God and that he accomplished this in six days. This overly simplistic view does not do the robust Doctrine of Creation (DoC) justice, and it unnecessarily hinders much of the dialogue between evolution and Christianity. Bishop "recovers" the DoC by exploring the limitations of creation, God's sovereignty in the process, God's Trinitarian activity and ongoing purpose for his creatures, and the salvation of creation in space and time.
Science does not overthrow the Bible. Faith does not require rejecting science. World-renowned scientist Francis Collins, author of The Language of God, along with fellow scientist Karl Giberson show how we can embrace both. -Amazon
Polkinghorne discusses the origins and aims of natural theology in this series. It does not offer truth, but rather a "best explanation" for the world, answering primarily meta-questions. Two such questions asked by Polkinghorne are, "Why is science possible at all?" and "What makes the universe so special?" To explore the answers, he looks at the ability of human minds to penetrate mysteries of the natural world as well as the fine-tuning of the universe necessary to produce the fruitfulness of life.
To understand and apply Genesis 1 correctly, we have to consider issues of genre and intention. Too often these chapters are read as if they present a purely straightforward historical and even scientific account of cosmic and human origins.

JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (Aug. 19, 2006) - Earlier this week, ETSU senior Rhys Davies (Bridgend, Wales) won the 2006 Scratch Players Championship with a chip-in birdie on the fourth playoff hole at the Somerby Golf Club in Byron, Minn.
Davies, a two-time PING first-team All-American who finished last season No. 4 in the Golfweek/Sagarin College Rankings, ended regulation tied for the lead at 15 under par with 2005 Walker Cup teammate Oliver Fisher. Each shot 34 on Somerby Golf Club's back nine Thursday after the final round was shortened to nine holes by a 2 1/2-hour rain delay.
Both players then pared the first three playoff holes, before Davies chipped in for birdie and the win on the par-3 17th.
Davies and his ETSU teammates will return to action in the 2006-07 season on Sept. 15 in the Carpet Capital Collegiate in

Transfer Credit and Credit for Other Prior Learning
- Overview.
- College Board Advanced Placement Exams.
- College Level Examination Program (CLEP).
- DANTES Subject Standardized Tests.
- Secondary/Postsecondary Articulation through Tech Prep.
- Credit by Examination.
- Credit by Portfolio/Document Evaluation.
- Military Training.
- Transfer Credit from Other Colleges and Universities.
- Reverse Transfer of Credit.
- Procedure to Request Evaluation of Other College Transcripts (PDF).
Washtenaw Community College recognizes that students come to college with competencies obtained from prior learning experiences such as previous education, training, or work experience. To receive credit, a prior learning experience must be verified. If it is documented and evaluated to be equivalent to college-level coursework, it is the College's policy to allow equivalent credit to be granted to the student if appropriate to their WCC program of study. The following methods may be used to verify equivalency credit: transcript evaluation, credit by examination, portfolio evaluation, advanced placement testing, and articulation credit. Credit for prior learning will be evaluated and posted on the student's transcript only after the student has earned one or more credit hours at WCC and will not apply toward satisfying the minimum credits in residence required for graduation.
The credit does not count as part of a student's credit load for any given semester and is not computed into the grade point average. In most cases, non-traditional credit earned for prior learning experiences will not transfer to other colleges or universities. Other institutions will want to evaluate the transcripts from all colleges previously attended when awarding transfer credit.
See also Board of Trustees Policy 3031: Credit for Prior Learning.
College Board Advanced Placement Exams
Credit may be granted to students who have achieved a 3 or above on one of the College Board Advanced Placement exams offered through their high school. The student may be granted credit for a particular course or the credit may apply toward an elective. Contact Enrollment Services at 734-973-3590 for specific course information.
College Level Examination Program (CLEP)
Credit may be granted for the successful completion of each of the five general examinations of CLEP:
English Composition*
Natural Sciences
Social Sciences and History
* Students who achieve the minimum score on the English Composition General Examination will be granted English elective credit. To receive credit for ENG 111 (Composition I), students must pass the CLEP English Composition Subject Examination With Essay.
Minimum scores for awarding credit are based on American Council on Education (ACE) recommended credit-granting scores.
Students who have earned six or more credits in any one of the general examination subject areas are not eligible to receive credit for the general examination in that area. Subject examinations exist in the general areas of composition, literature, foreign languages, history, social sciences, science, mathematics, and business. In general, a maximum of three semester credits may be granted for each college approved subject examination for scores which meet ACE recommended credit-granting scores. Some general and subject examinations also require the successful completion of an essay examination or laboratory demonstration. For information about scheduling a CLEP test, contact the Testing Center at 734-973-3634.
DANTES Subject Standardized Tests
The DSST provides Colleges with a means to measure students' knowledge in commonly taught college courses and awards credit based on student scores. Students can choose from 37 different test titles in the areas of social science, business, mathematics, applied technology, humanities, and physical science. For information about which tests can be used to award academic credit at the College, contact Enrollment Services. For information about scheduling a DANTES test, contact the Testing Center.
Articulation through Tech Prep
Students who have acquired entry-level occupational skills through high school career and technical education may be eligible to receive college credit for equivalent courses. The student must have taken an approved career or technical course and receive a recommendation from the instructor. The student must also provide the college with his/her student performance record for evaluation by the college instructor. Students eligible for articulated credit must apply for the credit within two years of their high school graduation. For more information, please contact the high school counselor, the recommending instructor, or the College Tech Prep Office, 734-973-3706.
Credit by Examination
Students who appear to have proficiency in a course may, upon recommendation of a full-time instructor and with the approval of the department chair, take a course examination for credit. The student must be accepted to the College as a credit student and complete a Credit-By-Examination application form. The cost of the examination is based on the number of credit hours in the course. A maximum of 30 credits earned by examination may be applied toward a degree. The student is responsible for arranging to complete the examination. Students are allowed to attempt credit by examination only once per course. If the student passes the exam, WCC posts the credit with no grade. This credit generally does not transfer to other institutions.
Credit by Portfolio/Document Evaluation
Students with background experiences or certifications obtained through on-the-job training or apprenticeships, for example, may have this prior learning evaluated for college credit. Students may pick up a Nontraditional Credit Evaluation form from the Enrollment Services Office and contact the appropriate faculty member(s) in the student's program area. Courses granting CEUs are not normally eligible for college credit.
Students must submit all official documents and information on the length and content of the experience, and any other pertinent documentation, to the appropriate faculty member for evaluation. Normally, a maximum of 20 credits may be accepted in this category (with the exception of students with backgrounds in nursing or apprenticeship training).
Military Training
For an evaluation of service school training, students must submit a military transcript and DD 214 member 4 copy (military discharge papers) unless still on active military duty. The documents must show the exact title of the course, location of the course, and length of the course in weeks. Credit may be granted based on the recommendation of the American Council on Education (ACE). If a course is not evaluated by ACE, no credit is granted. If a course is relevant to a student's occupational degree objective, the program advisor and appropriate dean make a decision as to acceptance and application of credit. Other courses may be accepted as elective credit based on the veteran's program of study at WCC.
Transfer Credit from Other Colleges and Universities
Applicants must submit an official transcript from all colleges previously attended if they plan to apply the credit toward their program of study at WCC. Coursework will be evaluated, at the student's request, after the student has completed one or more credit hours at WCC. Credit will be granted only for courses in which a grade of "C" or better has been earned. Courses which are evaluated to be equivalent to courses offered at WCC are posted on the transcript as the specific course. Courses which are evaluated as college-level but not equivalent to a particular WCC course are posted as elective credit in the appropriate discipline.
The acceptance of transfer credit is governed by the accreditation of the institution and the listing published in the American Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers Transfer Credit Practices of Designated Educational Institutions. Credit is accepted from institutions with a general (AG) or provisional (AP) rating. Credit is not accepted from schools that have an N or NP rating. Credit from institutions that are not listed may be evaluated for nontraditional credit. Correspondence courses from accredited colleges and universities are accepted. Foreign transcripts cannot be evaluated without submission of international credit course-by-course evaluation from ECE or WES. Applications for these outside services are available from the WCC Student Connection.
Reverse Transfer of Credit
If you leave WCC before graduating, and then earn credits at another institution that satisfy your WCC program requirements, you may be able to reverse transfer those credits and use them to earn your certificate or degree at WCC. You can do this while you continue to attend another institution - or even if you are no longer attending a college or university.
Why take time to earn a certificate or associate's degree after you've left WCC?
- It shows future employers your ability to complete things you started.
- You'll receive recognition and a credential for all the time and effort you spent at WCC.
- You can list multiple degrees on your resume.
Are you interested in applying college credits completed after leaving WCC toward your WCC degree? Here's what you should do:
- View the Procedure to Request Evaluation of Other College Transcripts form and follow the direction provided.
- Complete an Application for Graduation by following the directions on the following page: www.wccnet.edu/studentconnection/graduation/certificate/

No one can call themselves an experienced mountaineer unless they have turned back unsuccessfully from some of their summit attempts. Climbing is a game of knowing when to press on and when to bail, and these choices can mean the difference between great success and needless death. It is a misnomer, of course, to call any trip into the mountains "unsuccessful" —these attempts are often richer experiences with far more opportunities for learning and growth.
The following table shows all of Ben Kunz's unsuccessful attempts. If the peak was climbed later, then the successful ascent date is noted, and how much time elapsed since the attempt. The "Attempt" column will be 2, 3, or other higher numbers for peaks that have been unsuccessfully attempted more than once. Unsuccessful attempts of peaks that have already been climbed are also shown.

Gucci / Fall 2012 Ready-to-Wear
Search a show by:
If there's one thing Gucci stands for as a brand, it is decadence, but this fall Frida Giannini placed its aesthetic into a very different historical context than the familiar, hard-edged sexiness of the nineties or the brittle, shiny geometry of last season's Deco-flapper collection. Instead, she'd found her inspiration in the Pre-Raphaelite period, recasting Edward Burne Jones's consumptive heroines as modern girls with plum-stained lips, bleached eyebrows, with their hair drawn away from their pale faces and twisted into flowing tendrils. The clothes they wore evoked a darkly poetic opulence—at times nymphlike, but with the fragility counterbalanced by references to a briskly dandy-ish masculinity with a dash of swaggering World War I militaria. It made for an extensive and varied flow of sophisticated clothes, softer and richer in tone, in a show which also encompassed the emerging ideas in fall's fashion narrative. It made for Giannini's best collection yet.
A girl in glasses opened the show, wearing a long, narrow black velvet skirt with an oversize military jacket slung over her shoulders. As you turned to watch her walking away, she showed a flash of black-stockinged leg from a deep slit in the back of the skirt. Thus, the Gucci girl preserves her reputation as a femme fatale, but carries it off in a haughtily detached, "not-trying-too-hard" effort to be sexy.
From then on, Giannini worked with flocked velvet in floral patterns reminiscent of William Morris, tapestry-inspired jacquards, and printed silks, turning out fitted sheath-dresses (another trend, done) and pajama-style pantsuits and smoking jackets, all emphasizing texture in a palette running from black to burgundy and deep bottle-green. She's always liked a jodhpur-style pant and a flat boot—part of Gucci's equestrian heritage, too, of course—and when she threw a huge pekan fur military overcoat on one of those looks, it was amazing.
As for evening? The grand sweep of Gucci's options—from an off-the shoulder emerald-green silk velvet gown with poetically ballooning sleeves and a ribbon-tie sash, to a wrapped chiffon burgundy dress, sliding off one shoulder and trailing ruffles, to the six extraordinarily semi-nude, black tulle dresses embroidered with flowers—will have Oscar-going actresses' stylists frantic to book options.
