When my only child headed off for school last fall, the house was quiet. Tomb quiet. Even my 6-year-old bichon frise, Rosie, felt the emptiness.
My home needed new energy, which soon arrived in a crate of three wiggling, yapping, licking and bounding dachshund puppies, who needed a foster home. Soon, 8-week-old Sunny, Red and Vinnie were filling big spaces in my heart and house with little antics — latching on to the same toy, tumbling over long-suffering Rosie, snuggling in my lap for a midmorning snooze.
Fostering rescue pets is a lesson in loving and letting go. It's a great fit for older animal lovers who want to share themselves and their homes fully, but not forever.
"Fostering is particularly attractive to older people who generally have more flexible schedules and more time to devote to animals in need," says Kim Intino, director of shelter services for the Humane Society of the United States. Also, many shelters foot the bill for food, toys and vet bills, which makes fostering "attractive to folks on a fixed income," Intino says.
Fostering, which usually lasts between one week and three months, also can be a labor of love for snowbirds and frequent travelers, who shelter animals between trips.
"Some older people own two homes and aren't in one area for a whole year," says Lois Lefkowitz of Virginia, who has fostered 24 animals over four years. "Fostering is a great way to have some companionship and help some dogs and cats."
Although national rescue groups don't keep statistics on pet fostering, the Humane Society estimates that tens of thousands of families foster pets every year. In Sacramento, Calif., alone, the local Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals placed 1,000 animals — including rabbits and rats — with Sacramento-area foster families in 2009.
"Retired people are a prime resource for us," says Leslie Kirrene, a spokeswoman for Sacramento SPCA.

10 Unlikely Musical Co-Signs
December 06, 2013 via Pepsi
10 Unlikely Musical Co-Signs
A co-sign is when two artists join together, whether it be a musical collaboration or one artist supporting another. The connections can range from hip-hop gods like Jay Z showing support for booming indie groups like Grizzly Bear, or goth rocker Marilyn Manson joining up with his polar opposite and new best friend, Gucci Mane. Even if the pair is contradictory to our expectation, the results can still be awesome. Check out our list of the top 10 unlikely musical co-signs.
1. Diddy and Deerhunter
Who would have thought that hip-hop icon, Sean 'Diddy' Combs, would be a big enough fan of electro-indie band, Deerhunter, to present at Fader Fort in Brooklyn on October 20th during CMJ week. The mogul supposedly showed up unannounced and stayed to interview the band for his new startup, Revolt.tv. He acknowledges the randomness of his appearance and praises the band, claiming they're about to "blow through the stratosphere." Quite the introduction.
2. Nelly and Tim McGraw
Remember 2004, when St. Louis rapper, Nelly, and country music star Tim McGraw collaborated on "Over and Over Again." The mesmerizing love song peaked at No. 3 on the Billboard charts, not to mention topping international charts as well. Although Nelly signifies his role in hip-hop by clearly stating he is not a country artist, he shows his respect for working with McGraw and his love for country. He loves making "people like what they [wouldn't] think that they would like" – mission accomplished.
3. Danny Brown and Love
Uniquely cool Detroit rapper Danny Brown told Complex Mag earlier this month that his no. 1 favorite album is Forever Changing by '70s rock band "Love." He claims a friend introduced the band to him, and the infatuation grew from a need for research, developing a connection to the history of the band and the artists. Considering Brown's crazy antics and wild lyrics, it's a definite surprise that the soft sounds of "Love" would inspire him. Brown has expressed his love for the band's front man, Arthur Lee, and would even want to play him in a movie about the creation of the album.
4. Timbaland and Kat Dahlia
When hip-hop producer and rapper, Timbaland, first heart Kat Dahlia's hit "Gangsta" back in May of 2013, he pegged her as this generation's Nina Simone. With her raspy voice and soulful Miami style, Kat Dahlia is definitely someone to watch. In an interview with Fuse, Dahlia raves about working with Timbaland, whom she calls a genius. She is going to be featured on multiple tracks on his upcoming album, as well. The duo has some great chemistry!
5. Pharrell and Miley Cyrus
Pharrell was a creative counterpart in Miley's reinvention, being called her "Big bro" since the end of 2012. It's hard to believe that song-writer, producer, rapper, and fashion designer Pharrell Williams is behind one of the craziest creative transitions of this year, Ms. Miley Cyrus. Now referred to as "Big bro P" by the pop star, Pharrell has backed Miley's movement from the beginning. They met before the making of Bangerz even started, and P was there to back her up every step of the way. He continues to defend her antics and support whatever is coming up next from Miley.
6. Gucci Mane and Marilyn Manson
After working on a song together Goth Rocker, Marilyn Manson and rapper, Gucci Mane have sparked a budding friendship. According to Gucci, Manson has actually been writing rap verses, saying "that's my boy, man … he's cool as hell." Is Manson transitioning into rap? Probably not. But fans are excited for what's to come.
7. Jay Z and Grizzly Bear
Jay Z says Grizzly Bear and other indie artists are going to take over the music scene. When Grizzly Bear perform in Brooklyn back in September of 2009, Jay Z rocked out with his wifey and her younger sister, Solange in the crowd. HOV explains that after the hip-hop takeover with the music industry, there has to be something coming up next. He claims the indie rock scene is what's coming next and talks wildly about his support for the band and the power of this musical genre.
8. Rick Ross and Lorde
16 year-old singer song-writer, Lorde, has blown up the music scene with her new hit "Royals." The song pokes fun at the saturation of "gold teeth, grey goose…Cadillacs… Maybachs" in music and music video culture. Rick Ross, the head honcho of the Maybach Music Group caught wind of it, and instead of being upset he decided to put his own spin on it. Now Lore ironically has a Maybach (remix) of "Royals" released on October 22nd, with Ricky complementing her incredible voice and hard hitting lyrics.
9. Justin Bieber and Floyd Mayweather
Tween heart-throb himself, Justin Bieber, found himself an unlikely connection while escorting one of boxing's biggest and hardest stars, Floyd "Money" Mayweather into his arena. The two waltzed onto the stage right before his victorious fight against Saul Alverez back in May of 2013. The prince of pop looked über cool in all black and dark sunglasses alongside Mayweather– what an unexpected spectacle.
10. Lady Gaga and Kendrick Lamar
There couldn't be two musicians with a more directly opposing sound than Lady Gaga and Kendrick Lamar. Yet, somehow the two were inspired to work together back in December of 2012, while Gaga covered songs off Good Kid m.A.A.d City. The two have developed a mutual respect for each other. Kendrick describes Gaga as a "beautiful person" with a "genius mind," not to mention a "free spirit in the studio." The collab was supposed to be appear on Lamar's last album, but unfortunately Gaga wasn't able to get her vocals in on time.

What is the difference between an active and a passive fill light? I have an assignment that states to "use active or passive fill light" in a picture, but I need some clarification to understand what that means.
Take the 2-minute tour ×
Photography Stack Exchange is a question and answer site for professional, enthusiast and amateur photographers. It's 100% free, no registration required.
Passive lighting is reflected light, such as with reflectors. Active is the opposite, an actual source of light, such as a light bulb or flash.
But I must say these are terms I try to avoid since many people have different views on this. I really only use the term Passive lighting when I am outside and use a reflector to bounce the sun.
I am not sure if there is such a thing as specific "fill light" version of passive and active.

Sexual Harrassment was the project of Lynn Tolliver, a Cleveland radio DJ, which released one album in 1983; that album, I Need A Freak, shared its name with the group's most popular single. Tolliver wrote the group's material under the name David Payton, to distance himself from his radio career, though the group that toured as Sexual Harrassment was one Tolliver had formed after the initial success of "I Need A Freak"; the touring group included Tolliver's girlfriend, and additional vocals on the record came from radio announcers acquainted with Tolliver.
The majority of Sexual Harrassment's single releases are contained on the 1983 release—which, if you enjoyed today's track, you'd probably dig. April of 2011 saw the release of the Give It To Me Hot EP, which featured four reworkings of songs featured on the I Need A Freak album. An interesting listen if you're looking for more Sexual Harrassment, but probably not much more than a curiosity.

Updated (6/11 7:00 pm)
One Ashland resident is dead after an officer involved shooting Tuesday morning.
The Jackson County Sheriff's Office has identified the man involved as 73-year-old Earl Harris.
Sheriff Mike Winters said deputies were at the home Harris lived in on 35 Mistletoe Road serving a forced eviction order at 10:05 a.m.
"Things started off fairly well with conversation being exchanged between deputies and Mr. Harris," Winters said.
But Winters said after a couple minutes, the conversation took a turn.
Winters said Harris retreated to a bedroom. That's when the deputies entered the home from two different locations. Then, Harris came out with a shotgun pointed at deputies.
Two deputies fired four shots and killed Harris at the scene. They then attempted to revive him, but failed.
"He was given clear instructions by deputies and he failed to follow instructions," said Winters.
Winters said it's not the sheriff's office first encounter with Harris.
"On one of the previous contacts he was armed with a pistol," Winters said.
Eight to 10 officers went to the home Tuesday morning. Four of them were members of the SWAT team. Winters said they knew there was potential for violence.
Winters said they found six to 12 weapons in the home. The bomb squad was on scene Wednesday. They removed six improvised explosives from the home. But Winters said the area is safe for the public.
The investigation into the shooting continues. The deputies who were involved are on standard administrative leave.
Updated 6/11 2:00 p.m.
One man is dead in an officer involved shooting. Police have identified the man involved as 74-year-old Earl Harris and say they were at Harris' residence to serve a forced eviction notice.
Police say they were talking to Harris when he retreated to a back room and police entered the home. Harris came out of the back room with a gun pointed at two Jackson County Sheriff deputies. The two deputies each fired at Harris.
Police attempts to revive Harris failed and he died on scene.
A large amount of weapons were found in Harris's home as well as grenades. Police were aware that Harris posed a threat due to his previous encounters with law enforcement. SWAT members were on scene as the eviction notice was served.
Ashland, Ore.-- Police officers from several different agencies lined the streets of an Ashland neighborhood Tuesday morning.
"This is usually like a cute safe little town you don't see that around here," said a neighbor who goes by "Budge."
Neighbors of the mobile home on Mistletoe Road said the scene raised some red flags.
"If you've ever read his signs on his property...he was quite a bit of a loner...maybe anti-government."
Officers were called to the home for an officer involved shooting and said that was the only information they could give.
The Jackson County Sheriff's Office would not say who fired a weapon or if anyone was hurt. But witnesses said someone was taken from the home by ambulance.
"It looked pretty intense and serious I mean you don't usually see people in fatigues and this and that..there was a lot of people."
While deputies would not say who was involved, Federal court documents from 2012 show a man named Earl Harris was the owner of the property and fighting foreclosure.
He even filed a lawsuit against U.S. Bank and Jackson County Judge, Ron Grensky.
Saying Grensky was biased and that his foreclosure hearing was nothing more than a quote "foreclosure mill."
Property records show the bank took legal control of the home in September 2013.
But people who work at nearby Blackstone Audio said Harris still lives there.
"He has signs up there stating that he did not like the government. He didn't like the mail man ,he did not like smart meters. When people walk by or get too close to him he tends to get his gun out."

Self-MassageSkip to the navigation
Topic Overview
Massage can help relax your tense muscles and relieve pain.
There are a number of products on the market that can help you massage your own back muscles. Or you can give yourself a back massage using a tennis ball.
- First take a hot bath or shower to relax. Do a few easy stretching exercises.
- Lie on your back with your knees bent and your feet flat on the floor.
- Put the tennis ball under your lower back.
- Take a deep breath, and then relax into the ball as much as you can. Hold for a few seconds, and then lift yourself and move the ball to another area.
You can also do this massage with two tennis balls stuffed into a sock. Lie on the tennis balls with one ball on each side of your spine.

BASF Ponders Plastic Additives Plant in Mideast; Eyes Expansion in Asia
3:50 AM MDT | June 29, 2010 | Natasha Alperowicz
BASF is considering plans to build a plastic additives facility in the Mideast and is studying possible expansion in Asia, CW has learned. Hans W. Reiners, president/performance chemicals at BASF, told CW recently that the company is looking at how to be closer to its customers. "We are still importing more into the regions than we produce," he says. In the Mideast, the company would begin with a blending unit at a yet-to-be-decided location, which would become BASF's first wholly owned plastic additives plant in the region. The company already...

Radial Longitudinal Deficiency
Radial longitudinal deficiency (RLD) is a lack of formation of the thumb side of the upper extremity. It can affect the hand only (usually the thumb) or, more commonly, the hand and forearm. It is a lack of bone, muscle, tendon, nerves, and blood vessels. The severity is different in each affected child.
Dr. Charles Goldfarb discusses radial longitudinal deficiency.

When our shop had to replace two mig units due to theft we stayed with the 252s. Originally we had a 251 and a 252 on hand. When the two new units arrived from our LWS both were equipped with Bernard Q guns. There is no way the factory guns would hold up at all to the sessions of high heat and volume we put them through. If you are going to run the machine at higher settings for long periods of time just get a quality gun and burn away. Now I want to set one up to run aluminum and see how it does.

Interpretive Handbook
8582 :
Hemosiderin, Urine
Clinical Information Discusses physiology, pathophysiology, and general clinical aspects, as they relate to a laboratory test
When the plasma hemoglobin level is >50 to 200 mg/dL after hemolysis, the capacity of haptoglobin to bind hemoglobin is exceeded, and hemoglobin readily passes through the glomeruli of the kidney. Part of the hemoglobin is absorbed by the proximal tubular cells where the hemoglobin iron is converted to hemosiderin. When these tubular cells are later shed into the urine, hemosiderinuria results. If all of the hemoglobin cannot be absorbed into the tubular cells, hemoglobinuria results.
Hemosiderin is found as yellow-brown granules that are free or in epithelial cells and occasionally in casts in an acidic or neutral urine.
Useful For Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful
Detecting hemosiderinuria, secondary to excess hemolysis, as in incompatible blood transfusions, severe acute hemolytic anemia, or hemochromatosis
Interpretation Provides information to assist in interpretation of the test results
A positive hemosiderin indicates excess red cell destruction.
Hemosiderinuria may still be detected after hemoglobin has cleared from the urine and hemoglobin dipstick is negative.
Cautions Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances
No significant cautionary statements
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.
Hemosiderin: negative (reported as positive or negative)
Hemoglobin (internal specimens only): negative
RBC (internal specimens only): 0-2 rbc/hpf
Clinical References Provides recommendations for further in-depth reading of a clinical nature

Dynamo defender Bobby Boswell offers his thoughts on the team's trip to Tucson for the Desert Friendlies.
More than 100 ladies attended the first day of the 2013 Houston Dynamo Girls tryouts on Saturday at the University of Houston - Downtown Jesse H. Jones Student Life Center. The Dynamo Girls are the official dance team of the Houston Dynamo, performing at every Dynamo home game, select events throughout the community as well as serving as community ambassadors for the organization.
The auditionees were taught a routine by Dynamo Girls director Marilu Amador-Harman (and former Dynamo Girls) and then performed the routine in front of a panel of judges including Sarah Pepper and Ivan Trujillo from The HOT Show on 95.7 FM.
Of the 100 ladies who attended, 40 finalists were chosen for the final round, which will be held Sunday morning at BBVA Compass Stadium.
It is becoming an annual tradition. Dynamo preseason is in full gear, the team is traveling around the country playing friendlies and Wade Barrett is off doing something that few people are even capable of doing.
Coming on the heels of a spot on the National Soccer Hall of Fame ballot, Barrett added another accomplishment to his resume when he won the Rocky Raccoon 50-mile race in Hunstville, Texas, last weekend. The 36-year-old former Dynamo captain completed the race with a time of 6:57:42, finishing almost 38 minutes ahead of the second-place finisher.
Was Barrett surprised that he finished the race in first? Yes and no.
"There are such good runners out there that you never really think about winning," he said. "For me, it's about coming close to what I did two years ago because at that time I was in pretty good shape."
Two years ago, Barrett completed the race in just over seven hours. Last year, Barrett stepped up his game and ran the 100-mile race in a time of 18 hours 17 minutes and 50 seconds. This year, he went back to the 50-mile race and was able to take seven minutes off his previous best.
Aside from improved weather conditions, the Virginia native says there was no secret to his success.
"There is no easy way to do it," he said. "You just have to run your own race and see how you feel. It's hard sometimes when you are running with other folks and you feel their pace and try to stick with them.
"You just need to see how you feel and I felt comfortable in the first lap, pretty comfortable in the second lap and pretty hurting in the third lap," he added. "But at that point, I just had one lap to go so I had to do the best I could."
Although Barrett is pleased that won the race, he is not eager to get back on the trail any time soon. Right now, he is focused on giving his body some time to rest as well as focusing on his coaching duties with the Dynamo.
"[Coaching] is what I have been focused on all along, but it's nice to get that race behind me," he said. "I highly recommend people coming out to one of these races. You don't even have to run them, but just watching what it takes to complete something like that is very inspiring."
Measuring the worth of a defender is never an easy thing. Unless that defender is part of a unit that allows very few goals, or if that particular player gets forward often and contributes with goals and assists, it's difficult to tangibly identify how valuable that player is to their team.
So with today's news that the Dynamo extended the contract of Jamaican center back Jermaine Taylor, we took to Opta to determine just how valuable Taylor has been to the Dynamo over the past two years.
When one looks at Jermaine Taylor, their first impression is normally NFL running back instead of MLS center back. At 5-foot 10 and 195 pounds, Taylor is built solidy and not afraid to go in for a challenge. Opta backs up that point, as despite playing in only 27 games in 2012, Taylor led all Dynamo players in tackles with 69. Furthermore, Taylor was not only confident going into tackles, but he was efficient. His 81.16% tackle success rate was 10th best among MLS defenders last season and second best on the Dynamo (Boswell lead Houston with an 84.38% tackle success rate).
Not only was Taylor adept at making the necessary challenge, but his positioning was also some of the best in the league. The Jamaican national team veteran had seven blocks and 115 interceptions last season, good for sixth and seventh, respectively, among MLS defenders.
Despite his strong stature, Taylor might be on the shorter end of the MLS center back scale. Even on the Dynamo, Boswell is listed as 6-foot-2 and Eric Brunner is listed as 6-foot-4, while Taylor comes in at a shade under 6-foot. So it may come as a surprise to some that Taylor attempted 112 aerial challenges in 2012 (eighth highest in MLS) and won 82 of those challenges (fifth most in the league).
When talking about Taylor's best attributes, we cannot forget his passing ability. In 2012, Taylor completed 83.79% of his passes, which is good for 12th most among MLS defenders who attempted at least 1,000 passes. The league average for passing percentage among MLS defenders is 80.85%, putting Taylor well above the league average in that category.
So while it's difficult to determine a defender's value based on sight alone, with the help of our friends at Opta, the numbers show that with today's announcement, the Dynamo have locked up one of the premier defenders in MLS for years to come.
Following the Dynamo's preseason trip to Tucson, two of Houston's Supplemental Draft picks are no longer with the club. Old Dominion University forward Yannick Smith and University of California - Santa Barbara midfielder Nic Ryan were released from Houston's training camp.
In three preseason matches (two against MLS competition and one against HBU), Ryan and Smith played 86 minutes and 44 minutes, respectively.
With the departures of Ryan and Smith, there are now five players in camp who do not have a contract with the Dynamo. Those players include MLS SuperDraft second round pick Jimmy Nealis, former Dynamo defender Mike Chabala, Scottish international Calum Elliot, Supplemental Draft pick Anthony Arena and Franck Songo'o, who is under contract with the Portland Timbers, but was told he would not be a part of their plans in 2013.
The Dynamo returned to training Monday following their week in Tucson, which included a win over the Colorado Rapids and losses to the San Jose Earthquakes and the Vancouver Whitecaps. The Dynamo will play two scrimmages this week, giving Dominic Kinnear another opportunity to evaluate his squad only four weeks out from opening day.
On Wednesday, the Dynamo will take on Houston Baptist University at 7 p.m. at Sorrels Field. On Saturday, the Dynamo will host Southern Methodist University at 10 a.m. at the Houston Amateur Sports Park. Both matches are free and open to the public.
Editorial Note: Wednesday's scrimmage, which was originally scheduled for 5 p.m. will not be played at 7 p.m. Saturday's scrimmage, which was originally set for 1 p.m., will now be played at 10 a.m.
To say that Major League Soccer has come a long way over the past 18 years would probably be a bit of an understatement. With games regularly scheduled on the ESPN family of networks on the NBC family of networks and with a game on the main Univision channel this year, MLS is getting more exposure than ever.
That exposure has paid off, as MLS was selected to be one of the companies featured on the new CBS reality series The Job. The show will feature five candidates participating in several rounds of elimination challenges before a panel of executives as they compete for their dream job.
Not only are we excited to see MLS get featured on a CBS primetime show, but we, in Houston, are very excited to see one of our own competing on the show.
Crystal Solomon, an Assignment Manager at CW 39 at KIAH-TV, will be one of the five contestants competing for a job as an associate producer position at MLSsoccer.com, the League's official website. The panel of judges who will determine the fate of the contestants includes: President of Soccer United Marketing, MLS' commercial arm, Kathy Carter; Chief Marketing Officer Howard Handler; Executive Vice President, Competition, Technical & Game Operations Nelson Rodriguez; and MLSsoccer.com Editor-in-Chief Greg Lalas, among others.
We have not had the chance the speak with Crystal about the show, but according to her bio, she has been with CW-39 since March 2011. Prior to that she worked for the FOX Broadcasting Company and and KPRC-TV.
The MLS episode of "The Job" will air on Friday, March 1 from 7-8 p.m. CT on the CBS Television Network.
We'll update you again after the show, but we want to wish Crystal the best of luck as she pursues her dream job!
Last week, U.S. Soccer announced the list of nominees for the National Soccer Hall of Fame class of 2013. The list includes a compilation of some of the most talented players to play the game including: Taylor Twellman, Roy Lassiter, Ben Olsen and Chris Henderson among others.
But for Dynamo fans, one name stands out above the rest.
Making his first appearance on the National Soccer Hall of Fame player ballot is Wade Barrett. The former Dynamo defender and current Dynamo assistant coach is one of the most decorated players to wear the orange, not to mention one of the most fit people we know.
An original member of the Dynamo, Barrett played two stints with the San Jose Earthquakes (1998-2002 and 2005), winning the 2001 MLS Cup championship, before moving with the club to Houston prior to the 2006 season. The Virginia Beach native captained the Dynamo from 2006-2009 and led the club to two MLS Cup titles (2006 and 2007) and the 2009 Western Conference championship game. Barrett finished his career with 140 appearances in all competitions including 99 in MLS play.
Prior to the 2010 season, Barrett retired from playing to join Dominic Kinnear's coaching staff. With Barrett on the staff, the Dynamo have advanced to the past two MLS Cup finals. Barrett also co-managed (along with Steve Ralston) the Dynamo Reserves to the 2012 Reserve League Central/Mountain division championship.
The hall of fame voting pool includes all past and present full men's and women's national team coaches, all active MLS and NWSL head coaches with a minimum of four years of experience as a head coach in a first division league, MLS and NWSL management representatives, MLS Commissioner, NWSL Executive Director, U.S. Soccer CEO/Secretary General, U.S. Soccer President, designated media members, and all Hall of Famers.
Each voter can list up to 10 candidates per ballot. Any player appearing on at least 66.7 percent of ballots will earn election, while any player who does not appear on at least five percent of ballots will be dropped from the Player ballot.

Back in December, Dynamo goalkeeper Tally Hall proved his "hipness" by participating in the "Houston is Hip" campaign for the Greater Houston Convention and Visitor's Bureau. The marketing initiative was launched to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the GHCVB.
The folks at www.visithoustontexas.com caught up with the Dynamo goalkeeper to talk about life in Houston and what he enjoys doing away from the pitch. Is it any surprise that Hall, a fun-loving guy, picked the Houston Zoo as his favorite place to go in the city?
Before today's scrimmage against the Colorado Rapids, Dynamo head coach Dominic Kinnear joined 1560 AM's John Harris to talk about the first few weeks of preseason and his hopes for 2013.

From Intelligent Design to BioLogos
In this paper, Venema tells the story of his transition from support of Intelligent Design to the view that God uses evolution as a creative mechanism.
The Resource Finder has powerful filtering features — check out the tutorial to learn more.
In this paper, Venema tells the story of his transition from support of Intelligent Design to the view that God uses evolution as a creative mechanism.
In this paper, adapted from an article from Science & Christian Belief, Dr. Oliver R. Barclay compares and contrasts the biblical view of design in nature with modern design arguments.
In this paper, Venema explores several examples in biology where random mutation and natural selection have indeed led to substantial increases in biological information. The question of how new specified information arises in DNA, far from being an "enigma", is one of great interest to biologists.
In this paper, MIT professor Ian Hutchinson addresses the question of how to engage arguments put forward by the New Atheists. In doing so, he offers a critique of scientism, the assumption that scientific knowledge is all the real knowledge there is.
Many barriers to the acceptance of the BioLogos model by evangelical Christians arise from popular misconceptions about the nature of science and its relationship to God's action in our world.
Mathematics professor James Bradley looks at the design argument presented in William Dembski's book The Design Inference and offers his criticisms on the accuracy of the model.
In this article, Venema offers his review of Stephen Meyer's book Signature in the Cell.
Can science provide substantive insight into the question of God's existence? Isaac's paper examines three schools of thought regarding the possibility of detecting God's existence through science: Evolutionism, Creationism, and Intelligent Design.
In this paper, Baylor philosophy professor Francis Beckwith distinguishes between Intelligent Design (ID) and Thomistic Design (TD).
In this scholarly essay, Steve Benner, a Distinguished Fellow of The Foundation for Applied Molecular Evolution in Gainesville, Fla., looks at what the role of a scientist should be. Benner looks specifically at "falsifiability", the acceptance of uncertainty, and the place of the scientist in public discourse.
Science and religion scholar Michael Ruse gives a personal account of his experiences as an author and public speaker on the compatibility of Christianity and biological evolution.
Giberson's essay makes the case that scientific fundamentalists are not merely arguing for the supremacy of science but also presenting science as a quasi-religious replacement. The agenda of the "New Atheists" is not merely to refute mainstream religion but to replace it. Unfortunately, the scientific community is poorly represented by these aggressive public figures.
A complex biological structure with many interacting parts might appear, at first glance, as if it were originally created in its present form with all its interlocking components fully formed and intact. It doesn't seem possible that they developed step by step via biological evolution. In Darwin's Black Box, Michael Behe introduces a term that he and other proponents of Intelligent Design use for this concept: irreducible complexity.
The meaning of the "image of God" has been debated for centuries in the church. A common view is that the image of God refers to the human abilities that separate us from the animals. However, scientists have found that abilities like communication and rationality are also present in animals on a basic level. Plus, theologians do not see the image of God as human abilities. Some theologians see the image of God as our capacity for a relationship with God. Other theologians see it as our commission to represent God's kingdom on earth. Both of these theological positions are consistent with scientific evidence. Whether God created humanity through a miracle or through evolution, God gave us our spiritual capacities and calls us to bear his image.
(Updated June 25, 2012)
Every field of science has unanswered questions and gaps in our understanding. Scientists typically view these as open research questions. Others sometimes argue that if science can't explain how something happened, then God must be the explanation. Such arguments are called "god-of-the-gaps" arguments. The risk in these arguments is that science is always developing. If gaps in scientific knowledge are the basis for belief in God, then as scientists fill in the gaps, the evidence for God disappears. The God of the Bible, however, is much more than a god of the gaps. Christians believe that God is always at work in the natural world, in the gaps as well as in the areas that science can explain.
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."

I bought this product because i wanted to have a small speaker for when i shower or get ready or even when i'm just in my room wanting to listen to music. i was not let down. it sounds amazing. amazed at how such a small speaker could deliver such sound. i was going to buy another speaker that was double the money and this one matches it on every level. it delivers crisp sound with just the right amount of bass. simply a great product. cant beat the price either.

I got this speaker so I can use it in the shower to listen to music and to answer phone calls. The phone call reception is really good. And the speaker has a good volume range and you can skip between songs right from the speaker. No complaints here. Just remove speaker from shower wall when done because it will fall off later. I would recommend!

My friends teen daughter had this little speaker at the beach last summer. She had it in the sand, the pool and everywhere in between. I thought it would never survive what it was put through. After almost a year her little speaker is still traveling to softball games and sounds great. So I bought 2. One for my husband and one for myself. We plan to use them on our paddleboards. The sound is good ( not epic ) but pretty darn good! I have used it to talk on the phone. I have a lifeproof on my I phone so this sound is better than my cased up phone. In fact, those I called could hear me better in my car with this little speaker rather than the built in phone system in my Escalade! So that was a bonus!

This probably was one of my favorite gifts this last Christmas. I love listening to music when I ride my horses, but the speaker I had before just never filled the arena like this little speaker. The sound is POWERFUL. I listen to composers like John Williams and the Bop H2O never misses a beat (pun intended!) I can't wait for this summer when we have our pool parties!

Interpretive Handbook
8771 :
Cyclic AMP, Urinary Excretion
Clinical Information Discusses physiology, pathophysiology, and general clinical aspects, as they relate to a laboratory test
Cyclic AMP functions as an intracellular "second messenger" regulating the activity of intracellular enzymes or proteins in response to a variety of hormones (eg, parathyroid hormone).
Urinary cyclic AMP is elevated in about 85% of patients with hyperparathyroidism.
Useful For Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful
The differential diagnosis of hypercalcemia
An adjunct to serum parathyroid hormone measurements, especially in the diagnosis of parathyroid hormone resistance states, such as pseudohypoparathyroidism
Interpretation Provides information to assist in interpretation of the test results
Urinary cyclic AMP is elevated in about 85% of patients with hyperparathyroidism and in about 50% of patients with humoral hypercalcemia of malignancy.
Cautions Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances
Parathyroid suppression (hypoparathyroidism) does not lower urinary cyclic AMP excretion to definitely subnormal values.
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.
1.3-3.7 nmol/dL of glomerular filtrate

The Maryland Child Support Enforcement Administration has made strides in fixing internal problems and increasing the collection of child support owed, according to a new report from the Office of Legislative Audits.
In 2011, an audit of the Child Support Enforcement Administration found that from 2007 to 2010, the amount of unpaid child support in the state totaled $1.72 billion and that not all available tools were being used to collect the delinquent money. In that time, the administration collected $530 million from those owing child support.
The follow-up report, released earlier this month, found that the administration had completed many of the recommendations of the Office of Legislative Audits or was making significant progress on them, said Thomas J. Barnickel III, acting legislative auditor.
�It is evident they�re taking the recommendations seriously, and they are making progress,� Barnickel said.
However, the administration still has not completed all of the recommendations in the audit, including findings that had been in previous audits, according to the new report.
The latest audit shows that the Child Support Enforcement Administration was now making fuller use of wage withholding to collect money owed, adjusting to a criticism in the audit last year.
More than $370 million of the record $544.4 million in payments collected from noncustodial parents in the fiscal year ending Sept. 30 came through enhanced wage withholding, according to the agency. The total collected surpassed the amount from the previous fiscal year by $25.1 million.
The agency also worked with other state agencies to suspend drivers and professional licenses and intercepted tax refunds or lottery winnings — all recommendations in the 2011 audit report.
�This record-setting performance in Maryland is the result of changes made to the child support system over the last year,� said Department of Human Resources Secretary Ted Dallas in an emailed statement.

Flying Fish
2010. Sri Lanka. Directed by Sanjeewa Pushpakumara. With Chaminda Sampath Jayaweera, Rathnayaka Marasinghe, Siththi Mariyam. Pushpakumara's breathtaking debut feature deftly weaves together three narratives about war-torn Sri Lanka, capturing the emotional and spiritual suffering of people trying to live a normal life amid the devastation of the country's ongoing civil war. The landscapes of eastern Sri Lanka are captured in long takes, and the nation's quiet rage is expressed through superbly framed tableaux vivants. Inspired by the director's own experiences, the film is deeply felt—but its more shocking elements are not for the fainthearted. In Sinhala, Tamil; English subtitles. 125 min.
