53,000 Geordies
53,000 Geordies meet in St James Park for a "Geordies Are Not Stupid"
Alan Shearer addresses the crowd "We are all here today to prove to the
world that Geordies are not stupid. Can I have a volunteer please ?" Gazza
gingerly works his way through the crowd and steps up to the stage.
Shearer asks him "What is 15 plus 15?" After 15 or 20 seconds Gazza
Obviously everyone is a little disappointed. Then the Geordies start
chanting "Give him another chance! Give him another chance!"
Shearer says "Well since we have a capacity crowd, world-wide press and
global broadcast media here, I think we can give him another chance. So he
asks "What is 5 plus 5?" After nearly 30 seconds Gazza eventually
Shearer looks down and just lets out a dejected sigh. Everyone is
disheartened and Gazza starts crying.
But then the 53,000 Geordies begin to yell and wave their hands shouting
Shearer, unsure whether he is now doing more harm than good eventually says,
" What is 2 plus 2?"
Silence hangs over the stadium. Gazza closes his eyes, and after a whole
minute eventually says, "Four?"
Pandemonium breaks out throughout the stadium as the Geordie crowd stand to
a man, wave their arms, stomp their feet and scream .............

Fingers crossed Davey lad, Tuncay IS one of those players that runs his guts out every game, plays with a lot of heart and even though he never scored in his first 12 games..his work rate ensured the crowd didn't get on his back..and now he#$%$ the back of the net.
Yakubu & Viduka...we are well shot of...even though Yak is doing well now…..wait till after Christmas ...he will be strolling around eating mars bars and scratching his #$%$.
Anyway, have a good Christmas Davey..I fly into Newcastle on Monday...the old dear is none too clever so I am in sunny Teesside until Jan 3rd.
Boro play Everton on New Years day, if its live on telly, look out for me...I will be the good looking b@$tard hurling Gregs pasties at Yakubu's head.

Aye aye,C.J., if you were to go back to posts we exchanged in june you will see that I haven`t changed my mind about the fat lad.I said back then that he didn`t run around enough for my liking and I`ve so far seen nowt from him to change my mind.Truth is it worries me that our manager was daft enough to sign him.With regard to Yakubu,your right I`d rather have him than Viduka but in my opinion he`s a bit of a lazy tw@t as well.Anyway never mind what I think,waddaboot the lad Tuncay do you think the floodgates may have opened ?
oooo that was a low blow Davey, go on hit us in our attendance figures as well...actually Aliaddywhatseezface scored on Saturday....it was disallowed but at least someone has told him where the back of the net is......As for Viduka...I bet you wish you had bought Yakubu
53,000 Geordies! I bet that took some writing? Did yr nose start bleeding when you wrote capacity crowd??

Like I pointed out, I didn't write it, I got it in an email off my now ex gf
He probably cant hear yer Boddie, perhaps his ears are still ringing from Sunday & the sound of 26,000 Boro fans whilst beating Arsenal 2-1 ; )
Two Aliens are flying over the Amazon River in their Space ship, when they spot a local tribesman paddling downstream singing to himself.
"Ah! A primitive earthling" says one Alien fukker, "lets Experiment on him"
Quick as a flash they beam him aboard their vessel, scoop out half his brain, sew him back up and beam him back into his canoe.
The jungle fella carries on as normal, paddling away, singing his jungle song.
"Hmm". Says the other green #$%$, "obviously we must remove more of his brain for him to change his tune".
So they beam him up again, scoop out another piece and put him back in his canoe.
Again the tribesman carries on paddling along and singing the same jungle chant regardless.
"Curious" says the first three-headed c%nt "it seems we must remove even more"
Again they beam him aboard, but this time they remove all of his remaining brain, sew him up and beam him back to the canoe
"Now let us see how he sings with no brain!!" says the Alien.
The tribesman paddles off singing "Fog on the Tyne is all mine all mine, fog on the Tyne is all mine…."

Sorry to step in guys, but your jokes inspired me:
Sam Allardyce has got fed up with his team not performing and wants to know how the league leaders do it so he sent Alan Shearer on a trip down south to see how Arsene Wenger trains the Arsenal squad.
Alan's patiently watching, when AW calls over Robin Van Persie. "Robin, I'm not your brother, but your uncle's son. Who am I?" Robin immediately answered "You'd be my cousin"
Alan looked bemused, and asked "Wha was that all aboot?" AW explained that asking quick fire questions helped to keep their minds alert.
Bouyed by the idea, Alan shot back up to the Toon and reported back to Big Sam. Next day at training, they were both stood on the sidelines, when Alan called over James Milner and Nicky Butt. Alan pointed at Nicky and asked James "He's not your brother, but your uncle's son. Who is he?"
James looked puzzled, then answered "He'd be my cousin?"
Alan smacked him and said "No you twat, he's Robin Van Persie!"
Big Sam then smacked Alan, and said "No it's not, it's Arsene Wenger?"

Introduction. Body piercing and tattooing are accepted by a growing number of teenagers and young adults as a way of self-expressing. Some authors suggest association between body piercings/tattoos and early sexual initiation, higher number of sexual partners, or risky sexual behaviors.
Aim. The aim of the study was to evaluate sexual behaviors among young adults with body modifications (BMs)—tattoos and piercings.
Methods. One hundred twenty young healthy adults, ages between 20 and 35, were included in the population study. The study group was divided into three subgroups: controls (N = 60), adults with tattoos (N = 28), and adults with piercings (N = 32). The research instrument was a self-prepared questionnaire containing 59 questions assessing socioepidemiological parameters, sexual behaviors, incidents of sexual harassment in the past, and self-attractiveness evaluation, as well as questions concerning tattoos and piercings. Socioepidemiological variables and sexual behaviors were compared between subgroups.
Main Outcome Measures. To assess and describe the correlation between having BM—tattoos and piercings—and sexual behaviors in the population of young adults by using the logistic regression model.
Results. Adults with BMs have had their first intercourse statistically earlier and were more sexually active compared with controls. There were no statically significant differences in sexual orientation, sexual preferences, engaging in risky sexual behaviors, frequency of masturbation, and history of sexual abuse between the groups. In contrast, the frequency of sexual intercourses was statistically higher and oral sex was more likely to be a dominant sexual activity in adults with BM compared with controls. The multivariate logistic model revealed that adults with BM were four times less likely to participate in religious practices and twice more likely to have early sexual initiation.
Conclusions. Having BM is associated with early sexual initiation and more liberal attitudes toward sexual behaviors but not with engaging in risky sexual behaviors.

Project Xpat
Project Xpat: What It Means To Be An Expatriate
When American expatriate Charles Trueheart was young, he lived all over the world — in Ankara, London, Saigon and Paris. His father was an American diplomat.
When Charlie was older, he moved back to the U.S. He went to college at Amherst. Eventually, he and his wife, Anne Swardson, became international correspondents for The Washington Post.
I was Charlie's editor at the Post for several stories. He is a lovely writer and a good friend.
In 1996, Charlie and Anne — and their children Louise and Henry — moved to Paris. Charlie and Anne have lived there ever since.
Today Anne is editor-at-large for Bloomberg News. And Charlie is director of the American Library in Paris.
I asked Charlie this question: What does it mean to you to be an expatriate? Here is an edited version — I was his editor, remember — of his thoughtful and thought-provoking reply.
Even after 17 years in Paris, Charlie writes, "setting out in the morning into this city I am fully aware that I am a stranger, that by dumb luck I am enjoying being virtually incognito in another culture. I enjoy being fully assimilated but also at odds with my surroundings.
"Everything remains fresh and discoverable. ... When frustrated, I blame the French for their idiotic ways and stubborn Frenchness. But when I see that Frenchness fade, as I have over these years, I mourn for its passing.
"What used to be more different is now less different: the convergence of my becoming accustomed and acculturated, and France's becoming more international, more English-speaking.
"Today we are deprived of almost nothing that you can get or see where you live, except perhaps a favorite toothpaste or peanut butter brand.
"And as an American in Paris, how am I regarded? Frankly in a cosmopolitan place like this, Americans, foreigners, are a dime a dozen. So that is a comfort, really. You don't stick out even when you are called on being non-native. This is more and more the case.
"The expat is the new global person."
As part of Project Xpat, NPR asked American expatriates to answer — in 10 words or less — the 10-word question: What does it mean to you to be an expatriate? Over the next few weeks, we will post some of the more thoughtful and telling responses. Now follows the first group:
"I'm American first, black second ... most of the time." — Tatiana Richards Hanebutte, 30, Germany
"I take a little Americana with me wherever I live." — May Tien, 37, New Zealand
"Seeing what the world has to offer without compromise." — Steve Thin, 29, China
"Colder winters, warmer beer, but more money for my science." — Abigail Ferrieri, 28, Germany
"Cereal sucks, traffic's horrific, but I'm loving the experience." — Sharonne Seitz, 29, Qatar
"Witnessing elements of my society permeate others." — Dylan Ferguson, 19, Canada
"The world is far too interesting to stay at home." — Kathy Kyle Bonomini, 37, England
"The more I learn, the less I know." — Kimberly Hope, 27, South Korea
"Apologizing or taking credit for American foreign policy." — Matt Rosemier, 55, England

The Straight State: Sexuality and Citizenship in Twentieth-Century Americaby Margot Canaday
View All Available Formats & Editions
Pub. Date: 07/25/2011
Publisher: Princeton University Press
The Straight State is the most expansive study of the federal regulation of homosexuality yet written. Unearthing startling new evidence from the National Archives, Margot Canaday shows how the state systematically came to penalize homosexuality, giving rise to a regime of second-class citizenship that sexual minorities still live under today.
The Straight State is the most expansive study of the federal regulation of homosexuality yet written. Unearthing startling new evidence from the National Archives, Margot Canaday shows how the state systematically came to penalize homosexuality, giving rise to a regime of second-class citizenship that sexual minorities still live under today.
Canaday looks at three key arenas of government controlimmigration, the military, and welfareand demonstrates how federal enforcement of sexual norms emerged with the rise of the modern bureaucratic state. She begins at the turn of the twentieth century when the state first stumbled upon evidence of sex and gender nonconformity, revealing how homosexuality was policed indirectly through the exclusion of sexually "degenerate" immigrants and other regulatory measures aimed at combating poverty, violence, and vice. Canaday argues that the state's gradual awareness of homosexuality intensified during the later New Deal and through the postwar period as policies were enacted that explicitly used homosexuality to define who could enter the country, serve in the military, and collect state benefits. Midcentury repression was not a sudden response to newly visible gay subcultures, Canaday demonstrates, but the culmination of a much longer and slower process of state-building during which the state came to know and to care about homosexuality across many decades.
Social, political, and legal history at their most compelling, The Straight State explores how regulation transformed the regulated: in drawing boundaries around national citizenship, the state helped to define the very meaning of homosexuality in America.

- Option Balaclava out performing it's self (Review by kiwi)
I've had this Balaclava for some time now and had had it through it's paces, as far as use goes. From, in and out of the Cat while guiding in British Columbia's interior, to pre-dawn sled rides in -25 without the wind. It's compressible, versatile (doubled up into a beanie, or down for full protection) and warm and wind resistant. The brushed outer blocks a surprising amount of wind, keeping me warm in -25 (-30 or lower with wind chill) This is the ideal back up layer for any trip, any season, anywhere. And at 51g thinking or a reason not to bring it is next to impossible.
(Ice climbing, glacier and ski guide, avalanche professional.)

- Option balaclava exceeded expectations (Review by Part businesswoman, part backpacker)
I find I'm carrying this everywhere with me -- it gets me through those first 10 minutes of a chilly early morning run and has been fine to sleep in during winter camping trips. I think it has some sort of thin wind-resistant layer inside it that makes it much warmer than other balaclavas with such a light weight. For the minimalist or ultralight type that deals with cold weather, this is a great gift.

- Option Balaclava™ (Review by By Jack Dawkins)
I use this product on all of my outings. I even take it with me during summer backpacking (you never know when you will need some extra warmth). If you are looking to go light and take as few items as possible, the Option Balaclava is perfect. It provides plenty of warmth and can be used in a variety of ways. It is also thin enough to fit under a helmet (biking or climbing).
(Posted on 6/19/11)
- Option Balaclava™ (Review by By Jason the Climber)
I find the option balaclava to be as warm as I need a hat. It's great that it's so light that it fits in your pocket without really noticing it there. It also wears nicely under a helmet.

Is it okay to register when there is no wedding?
My fiance and I will be getting married next spring and have chosen to save the money and time that it would take to have a wedding. He recently went through a foreclosure and we really would rather begin saving for our future, we are also a bit shaken by the foreclosure experience so spending a large sum is just too stressful. Instead we will have his father marry us and only about 10 family members will be present at the ceremony, we most likely will go out to dinner afterwards. Here is the problem, many of my friends have asked me if I'm registered, I am not, and have no idea if it is really a good idea since hardly anyone will be invited to the actual wedding. what is the etiquette in this kind of situation? I wouldn't want people guessing on a present if they choose to get us one, but I also think it would come of as rude to send an announcement for the registry but nothing about the wedding. do we have to explain to everyone that we have just chosen to skip the wedding? is there some tasteful way of announcing that there is no wedding but there is a registry? Please help.

If the defendants are found guilty of defamation, it would mean the judge believes the statement that climatologist Michael Mann "molested and tortured data" was false and made with "actual malice," meaning they knew or recklessly disregarded the fact that it was false.
A 2013 study found the rate of warming since 1900 is 50 times greater than the rate of cooling in the previous 5000 years, which threatens to destroy the stable climate that enabled civilization. A new study confirms again that recent warming has been unprecedented in speed, scale, and cause.
It's becoming clearer every day that a candidate advocating climate action drives a wedge between the anti-science Tea Party extremists and the rest of the Republican party (and independent/moderate voters). The Virginia Governor's race is but the latest example.

Multi-Instrumentalist, Singer/Songwriter
"The Marvins' Waves of Strange has a wide array of sounds, going from the harmony-heavy country-rock of "Two Joints on the Table" to the surf-esque space rock of "Girls Go to Venus" to the unclassifiable sludge/folk of "Still is the Light." Still, they keep a firm sense of melody about them, no matter what they're writing. That element ties the whole album together, from its farthest weird edges to the most traditional tunes. And it's all worth celebrating: "Still is the Light" is a powerful, pounding tune that works because of its disparate elements, not despite them."

Skip to comments.Franklin Graham Calls on Pastors to Speak Out on Abortion, Homosexuality; Says 'God Hates Cowards'
Posted on 05/24/2014 7:35:51 PM PDT by SeekAndFind
(Photo: The Christian Post / Sonny Hong)
WASHINGTON – The Rev. Franklin Graham told a large gathering of pastors on Thursday to address controversial issues from the pulpit, declaring that "God hates cowards."
Graham, president and CEO of Samaritan's Purse and the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association, based his remarks on Revelation 21:8, wherein God lists eight groups of people who will be "in the lake that burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death."
Of groups like murderers, idolaters, unbelievers, and others, the first group of persons listed were the cowardly. It was this first group that Graham focused on for his speech, titled "Standing Strong on the Controversial Issues," at the Thursday evening session for the 2014 Watchmen on the Wall National Briefing.
"The definition of a coward: a coward will not confront an issue that needs to be confronted due to fear. That is a coward," said Graham.
"God hates cowards. And the cowards that the Lord is referring to are the men and women who know the truth but refuse to speak it."
In his remarks at the dinner session, Graham spoke about the need for churches to speak out against abortion and homosexuality, declaring that "you're not going to shut me up."
"We have a responsibility to speak on the moral issues. Abortion, homosexuality, these are moral issues. This is a free country, you can do what you want to do but I want you to know it's a sin against God. This is a sin," said Graham.
Graham mentioned how he has "friends who are pastors" who say they want to preach the Gospel and not "become targets."
"Well don't you think the Lord Jesus Christ was a target?" asked Graham. "Could we get our heads chopped off? We could, maybe one day. So what? Chop it off!"
Graham's remarks were part of a multiday conference organized by the Family Research Council. Held from Wednesday to Friday, the Watchmen on the Wall National Briefing was geared toward pastors and encouraging churches to become more involved in politics, social issues, and public policy.
Featured speakers included Pastor Rafael Cruz, the father of U.S. Senator Ted Cruz; Bishop Harry Jackson, author and senior pastor of Hope Christian Church in Beltsville, Maryland; Joyce Meyer of Joyce Meyer Ministries; U.S. Senator Tim Scott of South Carolina, and several others.
For the Thursday evening dinner portion, attendees experienced worship led by contemporary Christian singer Charles Billingsley and were present to see awards given to assorted pastors for their actions on religious liberty.
The last honoree for the evening was Graham. FRC President Tony Perkins commended Graham for his actions in the public sphere.
"Franklin is not the pastor of a church, but in a real sense he is a pastor to America's pastors," said Perkins before presenting Graham with the 2014 Watchman Award.
"And in that role, he has sounded the alarm and raised the righteous standard as have few other leaders in our time."
The son of the famous evangelist Billy Graham, Franklin Graham has garnered controversy in recent years for his remarks on same-sex marriage, Islam, and President Barack Obama.
Some have contrasted his public career with that of his father, arguing that Franklin Graham has taken more overtly political positions than Billy Graham has.
I don't think his old man was like that in his prime.
To be fair, there was less need for Billy Graham to do so in his prime, because our society hadn't quite descended to the depths that it has at that time.
Billy Graham brought millions to Christ, no man has done more than him.
Franklin is sadly mistaken.
God hates: (Proverbs 6:16-19 King James Version - KJV)
16 These six things doth the Lord hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him:
17 A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,
18 An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief,
19 A false witness that speaketh lies, and he that soweth discord among brethren.
and also, (Proverbs 11:1) God hates dishonest scales.
I don't see "Coward" in that list, but I know:
The Beatitudes
5 And seeing the multitudes, He went up on a mountain, and when He was seated His disciples came to Him. 2 Then He opened His mouth and taught them, saying:
3 Blessed are the poor in spirit,
For theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
4 Blessed are those who mourn,
For they shall be comforted.
5 Blessed are the meek,
For they shall inherit the earth.
6 Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
For they shall be filled.
7 Blessed are the merciful,
For they shall obtain mercy.
8 Blessed are the pure in heart,
For they shall see God.
9 Blessed are the peacemakers,
For they shall be called sons of God.
10 Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness sake,
For theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
11 Blessed are you when they revile and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My sake. 12 Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you.
No, I will not confront Nero; nor will I deny the LORD.
Pax Domini!
Precisely. He is only seen now as 'overtly political' because back int he time of his father, there was wide bipartisan agreement on the degeneracies confronting American societies today. You could find card-carrying Democrats coal miners in West Virginia who always voted blue but were as disgusted as any conservative over the idea of murdering children and sanctioning perversion.
Its now political because only one party (and lets be honest, barely one party) is standing by the principles of truth.
Same thing with the accusations of an increasingly 'extreme' Republican party. No, they hold the same positions they have for generations, but the other party and society in general have moved off in the direction of Marxism.
I applaud Graham for saying this at a time when it is increasingly unpopular to take a stand even among so-called Bible-believing Evangelical Christians, especially his line about how Christ was a target and so must we expect to be targets. It is written as such! Why would the lost persecute the master and spare the servant?
He takes a principled stand and is correct to do so. Many Christians are either tacitly accepting defeat and allowing the next generation of Christians to defect from the Word, or they are looking to just segregate themselves from public life. Some who are tired of the culture wars and churches that engage in them are part of a small phenomenon of a growing Orthodox community in the US, eager to be part of a church under the radar that still holds Biblical truth inviolably. I read an interesting article on this recently.
These are trying times to be Christian in America. Even more trying in Western Europe or Canada. By contrast it is becoming even more of a rich experience to be Christian in Central Africa, Eastern Europe, and many parts of Asia. Just as persecution has shown the steely resolve of some Christians in the Middle East, so it will here. The wheat shall be separated from the chaff. There are sunshine Christians just as there are sunshine patriots, but unlike patriotism that hinges on the worthiness of a nation to be patriotic for, the Christian has a faith he should always be willing to defend.
It doesn't mean you have to put on armor to fight a culture war. You just have to know what you believe, and be ready to defend it rather than deny it, no matter the consequences.
It is a Christian duty to raise children with a message in this day and age. There is God, and there is the world. Some live for God, and most live for the world. But those who live for the world die with it. those who live for God shall live forever.
Speaking the truth sure is controversial these days.
My money is on Paul of Tarsus.
Peter Cartwright: Rough and Ready Circuit Riding Preacher
Experiences With General Andrew Jackson
"Franklin Graham Calls on Pastors to Speak Out on Abortion, Homosexuality"
"Some have contrasted his public career with that of his father, arguing that Franklin Graham has taken more overtly political positions than Billy Graham has."
This author believes that pastors that are speaking out against sin is equivalent to taking overtly political positions?
This is very telling.
I would expect this from a secular writer. And then to have the secular author demand that the government control such political positions. This is has been the usual attack. And in Canada this has succeeded to where it is really a political hate crime.
Comparing Billy Graham to the original disciples, I can see that, his work was similar, and covered the globe, and he reached many hundreds of millions.
Is there something you have against this great Christian Evangelist and his life's work?
But the cowardly, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.
-NKJV, Revelation 21:8
"God hates cowards. And the cowards that the Lord is referring to are the men and women who know the truth but refuse to speak it."
Amen brother Franklin.
Well said!
"Well, The Lord hates a coward..."
— Sean Connery, THE UNTOUCHABLES
Sorry to disagree with you ansel12, Billy Graham has done wonderful work presenting the case to millions, but the Holy Spirit is the one who leads people to Christ.
I doubt that correction was necessary.
I have been waiting to hear someone speak out other than that black Miami football player and some black ministers. I honestly believed all the white people were cowering under their beds. I praise God that he has the courage to remind people of the truth showing them who is an enemy to God.
God did not give us a spirit of fear. If people are fearful, it does not come from Him. It comes from somewhere/something else.
Thank you for posting that.
They are afraid because our national elites have turned away from Christian morality and they might close their checkbooks to them.
This will fall on deaf years to most of mainline Protestant clergy. 80% are aLready enslaved on the Democrat plantation.
And as Jesus said, "You will see more trouble than I have seen"
No, I will not confront Nero; nor will I deny the LORD. - well said!
You do not have to "confront Nero." Nero will confront you. Active persecution is coming, as Jesus clearly teaches. Christians in many countries are already giving their lives as a witness to their faith today.
Understood - the gist of the article was that we need to "get in Nero's face" which is not biblical and actually goes contrary to Jesus's preaching. It is understood that those who do evil will always be at our throats.
A profile in courage.
The truth is that, just being a Christian, a believer in Jesus, will by his or her faith "confront Nero", that is, the world. It is very Biblical because it is doing it in OBEDIENCE to God.
AMEN and safe to say it is starting in the west, including America.
A gentle correction is needed here.
Did not Moses confront Pharoah? Did not Elijah confront the false prophets? Did not John the Baptist confront King Herod?
Did not Jesus confront the temple officals by taking down the merchants tables?
The Bible does show there is a time and a need to "confront" the world.
"I don't think his old man was like that in his prime."
Yes. IIRC, in the late '90s, when an interviewer asked BG if Jews will/won't go to Heaven (they deny Christ). He tapdanced around the issue and didn't answer.
Franklin seems to be extremely bold for Christ and the Christian life. No longer in print, but his autobiography, "Rebel With A Cause", is one of the best books I've read. I needed to buy something quickly to read on a plane, found the book for $1 in a thrift shop, and couldn't put it down. He's come a long way.
His sister has a great testimony as well, and speaks boldly for Christ.
"Billy Graham brought millions to Christ"
The Billy Graham Crusade disagree with you.
I don't think his old man was like that in his prime.
Neither do I.
"Billy Graham brought millions to Christ, no man has done more than him."
Actually, millions came forward during Graham's invitations in an emotional atmosphere. It's hard to say where they went from there, and whether decisions were honest. Follow-up wasn't done; people weren't pointed in the direction of Bible-believing churches. If the Holy Spirit led them, that's a good thing. If simply emotional, then maybe not so much... Only God knows for sure.
I attended a Crusade in the '50s or '60s in Buffalo. It was wonderful.
Millions have physically come forward at the crusades, we don't know how many more millions took action in their own living rooms, of the thousands of millions he preached to, or what lingering and mushrooming effect his seed planting has had, and has, and will have.
"According to his staff, more than 3.2 million people have responded to the invitation at Billy Graham Crusades to "accept Jesus Christ as their personal savior". As of 2008, Graham's estimated lifetime audience, including radio and television broadcasts, topped 2.2 billion."
My father never had a religious bone in his body as far as I knew, but after his death and before she died, my mother said that he had attended a Billy Graham revival meeting in the 1940s, probably in Los Angeles in 1949, and had made the walk and accepted Christ, I hope so, and I hope it made a difference after he died.
I'm amazed that Billy Graham isn't seen as the historical Christian figure that he is, we need more Billy Grahams.
People were pointed towards churches. They just didn't stick with it.
The worst thing is they may go to Hell while thinking they got Saved.
Where did you get your numbers for that claim, that covers 70 years of his ministry?
I will go on record here. I used to preach 'many are called, few are chosen; and God opened my eyes forcibly. Having studied thousands of near-death experiences, and survived 4 of my own, be reassured: most people make it to God's presence. Those that don't have actively removed themselves from it. Hell? yes. Hitler? sure. Stalin? definitely. Galileo? nope. Harvey Milk? nope. God cares about Love. Love one another. What I can do, in love, I will. And right now, these folks need love, and prayers, and even more prayers. Confrontation? Balderdash! I ask all I meet to pray for our President. There are evil forces surrounding him. Be wise here, friends. Even be cunning. Directly oppositional? I think that's a trap. Franklin sounds very sincere, but this is not yet the time IMHO.
Harvey Milk, Stalin, Galileo?
How do you know where they were with God, when they died?
Take a listen. Ray talks about it. http://www.livingwaters.com/audio/way-of-the-master/hells-best-kept-secret
The reason we believe that people aren't in Hell is because WE want to believe it. But the rich man went to Hell and Lazarus did not.
I believe I deserve to go to Hell so why shouldn't I?
That was non responsive.
In Part 1 I quoted Billy Graham as saying that only five percent of those who make a confession of faith at his crusades go on to join a local fellowship of believers, which means that a huge percentage of the confessions of faith solicited in his massive evangelistic crusades are not of faith.
You are too cryptic, and evasive.
I look at your posts on this thread and can see that you are being negative, but you won't come out and explain what you are saying, or show the data.
Even in that post you quoted someone without telling us you were quoting someone else.
Is this not what you wanted to hear:
'In Part 1 I quoted Billy Graham as saying that only five percent of those who make a confession of faith at his crusades go on to join a local fellowship of believers, which means that a huge percentage of the confessions of faith solicited in his massive evangelistic crusades are not of faith."
I posted the link. What part of this was confusing to you?
Geez, it's like talking to 3rd graders today.
You linked to a PDF, with no explanation of who wrote it or what it is.
That isn't helpful.
It is what it is.
So no source.

A web of corruption and betrayal spreads out from historic Ruby Bayou, ensnaring two outsiders who have learned too much. Suddenly Faith and Walker are targets endangered by the yearning of their hearts . . . and by the dark secrets of the legendary Blessing Chest.

War accidents happen; U.S. pilots not guilty
Published: Sunday, January 26, 2003 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, January 25, 2003 at 11:00 p.m.
I read Associated Press newspaper articles this month concerning the two U.S. Air Force pilots, a captain and a major now at Barksdale Air Force Base, in an Article 32 hearing. From what I have gathered, hearing and reading many news reports, these two officers are not guilty in any way.
True it was a terrible accident. They are the first to admit this. However, there appears to be a series of ball-dropping along the way: Like when they, the pilots on patrol, were never informed of the Canadians' training activity on the ground.
In a war situation, many accidental things happen, especially when things are not properly coordinated from ground to air, air to ground, somewhere along the way these pilots did not receive additional information of the Canadian night fire training.
This action by the Article 32 has to be done to either clear the military members in question or recommend court-martial.
Again, I see no fault on the pilots' position in this hearing, considering facts that are known today.
These pilots appear to know their wartime job very well. I'm also sure they feel worse than most anyone because of this terrible accident. I can also feel the loss for the families, wives and loved ones who had to endure this horrible accident.
When one puts on a military uniform in any country, he or she is put in "harm's way," and, sad but true, accidents do happen.
They can train, train and be the best, however, accidents will happen. There is no guarantee of zero defects in the military; as much as they try and work to this end daily, accidents will happen, and some do die because of it.
I only hope and pray when the determination from the Article 32 hearing is made, these two pilots are cleared, and released to continue their life and continue their thankless job in the Air Force.

In this paper, the experts' opinions are described by linguistic terms which can be expressed in trapezoidal (or triangular) fuzzy numbers. To make the consensus of the experts consistent, we utilize the fuzzy Delphi method to adjust the fuzzy rating of every expert to achieve the consensus condition. To aggregate many experts' opinions, we take the operation of fuzzy numbers to get the mean of fuzzy rating x~/sub if/, and the mean of weight w~/sub aj/. In multi-alternatives and multi-attributes, the fuzzy decision matrix X~=[x~/sub ij/] is constructed by all mean of fuzzy rating, x~/sub if/. Then, We can derive the aggregate fuzzy numbers by multiplying the fuzzy decision matrix with the corresponding fuzzy attribute weight, and the final results become ranking fuzzy numbers problem. We also propose an easy procedure of ranking fuzzy numbers to rank aggregate fuzzy numbers A~/sub j/. In this way, we can obtain the best selection for the evaluating system. For practical application, we proposed an algorithm for evaluating alternative system by a simple fuzzy group decision-making method.

You cannot see it. You cannot touch it. You cannot smell it. But you can sure sense it.
Realistically, tradition does not help anyone block and tackle any better, but it makes them think they can.
The Texas panhandle has two representatives in the state semifinals this weekend and one thing both teams have in common is a long tradition of success on the football field.
Class 3A Childress is making its first trip to the state semifinals since 1979. In the late 1970s, the Bobcats routinely went to the final four. Childress advanced to the semifinals five straight years from 1975 to 1979 and the title game in 1975 and 1976.
In all, the Bobcats have made the post-season 22 times, all of them coming since 1970 under current head coach Charlie Johnston.
Childress continues its tradition Saturday when the Bobcats face Daingerfield at 3 p.m. in Bedford's Pennington Field for a trip to the Class 3A Division II state title game.
Class 1A Wheeler owns three state titles. The Mustangs first made the playoffs in 1936 and have been regulars in the postseason each decade since the 1960s. This is Wheeler's third straight semifinals appearance. Last year, the Mustangs made the title game but lost 40-0 to Granger.
Wheeler writes another chapter into its playoff history tonight when the Mustangs face Aspermont at 7:30 p.m. in Vernon for a trip to the Class 1A final.
In football, numbers mean plenty. Tradition in a program translates into community support and a seemingly endless line of youngsters eager to come out for the team.
Maybe no place in the Panhandle oozes with as much tradition as Wheeler.
Head coach Jim Verden graduated from Wheeler in 1977, the spring before the Mustangs' first state title. Assistant coach Shane Whitely was a member of the 1987 state title team. The current roster is dotted with sons, nephews, cousins and grandsons of former Wheeler players.
"I think it all goes back to what the team and the community expects to do and this team expects to win," Verden said. "This group of kids especially take that to heart. They got in the weight room all summer because we expect to win, we can get kids to do the things we need to be successful. It's not as hard to get them into the weight room and running."
The Wheeler trophy case bulges with gold footballs. A healthy number of all-state plaques adorn the fieldhouse. On game day, the town decks itself out in Mustang black and gold and the residents turn out to wish the team well.
With all the high expectations, players and coaches can sometimes feel overburdened. But like having too many players, it is a nice problem to have.
"I think the support can go a long way for us," Wheeler lineman Bruce Copeland said. "We get pumped up and we want to make things happen because we've got our fans behind us. You see a lot of ex-students and ex-players and they are encouraging you. It makes us all seem more like a family."
In Childress, Johnston personifies the Bobcats' playoff history. Childress has been to the playoffs 22 times - all in Johnston's 32-year run as coach. His career record is 290-83-8, all at Childress.
Two decades ago, the Bobcats had an incredible string of five straight semifinal appearances from 1975 to 1979. Childress twice made the title game in 1975 and 1976. Childress lost to Rockdale 23-6 in 1975 and La Grange 27-6 in 1976.
"We don't talk too much about it," Johnston said. "They can see it on the board in the fieldhouse and make what they want out of it. But we don't make a big deal of it."
After that run in the 1970s, Childress did not make another return to the semifinals until now. However, the Bobcats made the playoffs plenty of times in the 1980s and 1990s, they often played rough opponents early, especially Vernon.
"As a kid, I remember going to games, but the main thing I remember is we never could get past Vernon," senior wide receiver Christopher Carroll said. "When we beat them this year it really gave us some confidence and helped us get where we are. It's great to have the whole town supporting us. They talk to us and write us letters and let us know how much they support us."
Above all, Childress has played with consistency. Although they did not reach the high peaks of the 1970s, they also did not suffer through any depressions. The run of the late 1970s happened before almost everybody on the current team was born, but the Bobcats do hear about those days from relatives and townspeople who were around at that time.
"Since I've been here every little boy grows up want be Bobcat," assistant coach Phillip Rhodes said. "They can't wait until the seventh grade to put blue uniform on and run our plays. Here in Childress we wear plain blue helmets, no stars or cross bars or anything. It doesn't matter who get credit as long as job gets done. Thats one thing about being Bobcat. You think team first."
Since 1970, Childress has missed the playoffs no more than two consecutive years. The last two-year string ended this season as the Bobcats rolled through a tough District 5-3A slate undefeated.
"We like it here in Childress to be know for our consistency," Johnston said. "You like to have the high highs, but we also try to not have many lows and I think we've done that over the years."

Our mission is to educate students for Christian service and leadership throughout the world. We do so by providing a Christian environment in which we foster academic excellence through progressive education, real-world learning opportunities, and faculty-guided research. Along with on-campus learning environments such as the Maker Lab and the Learning Studio, we also provide practical application opportunities and study abroad programs in several countries.
Almost 100 campus organizations give students various venues for involvement and leadership. Aside from the important social aspect, these organizations also often provide service opportunities for students.
We believe in the overall development of our students, including physical health, along with spiritual and intellectual development. The $21 million Royce and Pam Money Student Recreation and Wellness Center encourages wellness of the whole individual - body, mind and spirit.
As a member of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA Division I) and the Southland Conference, ACU competes in football, men's and women's basketball, baseball, men's golf, men's and women's cross country, men's and women's track and field, women's volleyball, men's and women's tennis, women's soccer and women's softball.
Abilene Christian was once known as "The Singing College," thanks to the unbeaten 1950 Wildcat football team, which belted out heavenly tunes such as "When the Roll Is Called Up Yonder" on radio shows when it wasn't smashing foes into the next county. Visitors to Chapel and athletics events are always taken aback by what must sound like the world's largest glee club.
The Candlelight Devotional is one of the highlights of each Welcome Week when students gather in Beauchamp Amphitheatre to sing praises to God by the light of a thousand candles. Another is held just before May Commencement each year, when the graduating senior class gathers once more – often with faculty, staff and local alumni – to share a memorable time together.
Few larger universities in the world expect students to attend Chapel as ACU does each weekday. The centerpiece of Chapel is a brief time of devotion, a cappella singing, praise and fellowship. The whole experience lasts only 30 minutes but makes a lifelong impression. Besides the devotional experience, students learn about ACU traditions, hear guest speakers, share announcements, and generally remind each other that they're as much a family as a university.
First-year students barely have time to learn the combination to their mailboxes before being thrust into ACU's music-happy environment. They get an early chance to display their creativity in a free-wheeling performance called Freshman Follies each fall, showcasing their amazing talents and abilities during an ACU Open House.
This busy weekend in October each year is full of a whirlwind of traditions: a waving, sometimes weeping queen crowned at halftime at the football game; an early-morning parade, sort of a Sing Song on wheels; the Homecoming Musical spectacle at the Abilene Civic Center; food, and games for kids. Alumni of all ages converge on campus to hug a friend, eat some barbecue, watch the leaves fall and wonder where the years went.
ACU's Opening Assemblies have become an icon – a Texas-sized international celebration of pomp, parade, spirituality and patriotism. A processional of administrators and faculty in full academic regalia
marches in to the Big Purple's strains of "The Twenty-third Olympiad." Cheers cascade during the Parade of Flags as each state and nation represented in the student body is announced. A student from each country and state carries his or her flag, often dressed symbolically incultural attire. A time of devotion is marked by the traditional singing of "All Hail the Power of Jesus' Name," the reading of Paul's sermon on Mars Hill, and prayer. Then, a special speaker presents a brief message. The university president/provost pronounces the school year to be "officially in session!" and the Big Purple sends everyone scurrying to lunch or class with "March Grandioso." All in all, it is 60 minutes of soul-stirring stuff to celebrate the start of another school year and reinforce why we do what we do. Guests will tell you that few universities do it better than ACU.
This tradition began in the mid-1990s with employees wearing "Game Day" purple-and-white shirts on the Fridays before ACU football games. It has grown into an every-Friday tradition as more faculty, staff and students choose to show their school pride and Wildcat spirit by donning purple.
On Thursday, Feb. 14, 1957, in Sewell Auditorium, Dr. Robert D. Hunter ('52) directed ACU's first Sing Song. In a Chapel announcement, it was described as "the giant Sing Song contest which will be free and open to the public and is designed to encourage club participation and to demonstrate that we are truly 'the Singing College.' " For years, students stood on risers in choral style and sang songs as they were originally written. Then they started wearing simple costumes, moving with the music, and, eventually, changing the words to songs to fit the times. Now, of course, Sing Song is a major production featuring every club and class and several hosts and hostesses. It sells out nearly every year, with Saturday night finale tickets as hard to find as parking places within a block or two of Moody Coliseum.
For the past 110 years, with the exception of 1945 when it was cancelled due to World War II, this major event previously known as Bible Lectureship occurred in February just after Sing Song. One of its best-known former features was a giant Lectureship tent, big enough to fill a parking lot. Guests would spend hours there, looking for Christian books and videos, seeking shelter from the wind, and visiting with friends. Today, exhibitors sell their wares indoors in the Teague Special Events Center, and the event has moved to September. Major announcements and critical speeches that changed church history have been made at Summit, which focuses on preaching, equipping Christian servant-leaders, singing and fellowship.
The most-sung piece of a cappella music on campus, often sung at the end of special events, including Sing Song and Homecoming Chapel.
The Lord bless you and keep you
The Lord lift His countenance upon you,
And give you peace, and give you peace;
The Lord make His face to shine upon you,
And be gracious, and be gracious;
The Lord be gracious, gracious unto you.
Students show their support for the Wildcats with a hand symbol formed by creating a "C" with the thumb and forefinger, with the other three fingers forming a "W." The W-C is used during the singing of O, Dear Christian College and in other situations to indicate Wildcat loyalty and celebration. According to Jama Cadle, assistant director of alumni relations, the W-C was begun by alumni relations officer Mark Meador in 1999, pre-dating the symbol's use at other universities with the same mascot, including Arizona and Kansas State.
This 350-seat, second-story auditorium in the Onstead-Packer Biblical Studies Building has two special features – east and west windows of 280 shades of faceted glass and a north wall of huge Leuders limestone blocks. The latter is evocative of the western wall of the Temple in Jerusalem, which is used as a prayer site.
In the spring of 1951 U.S. Army helicopter pilot Joe Cox, stationed at Mineral Wells, flew his chopper to the Abilene Airport, picked up his sister, student Mona Cox, and flew her to the ACC campus, landing at Morris Stadium, where Mabee Business Building is today. The commotion of the chopper landing drew a large crowd of students to see the excitement. Mona married Jerry Mullins, who is today a retired ACU coach and financial aid director.
Dr. Callie Mae Williams Coons, class of 1920, was the first ACC graduate or former student to earn a doctorate. She earned her doctoral degree from the University of Chicago in 1929.
This building at East North 19th Street and Avenue D, formerly an Abilene fire station, is operated by the Department of Theatre. It serves as the department's costume and prop storage facility after being used for several years as a black-box theater.
This bell was donated by B.C. Freddie Goetz Goodpasture, Mandy Goetz Myers and Marky Goetz Pace in 1980. For more than a decade, freshmen rang the bell continually during Homecoming Weekend, against the efforts of upperclassmen, especially the sophomore class. The bell-ringing was cut short in 2001 when the tradition escalated out of control. In 2012 the bell was found in storage and restored to its place in the Beauchamp Bell Tower by the Royce and Pam Money Student Recreation and Wellness Center. Now the King of Campus Court rings it after his coronation in Homecoming Chapel to start the annual weekend's festivities.
Created by Jack Maxwell, professor of art and design, this sculpture is a Centennial Celebration project dedicated Sept. 9, 2006. Located southeast of the Onstead-Packer Biblical Studies Building, the sculpture is inspired by the Genesis 28 story of Jacob's dream and is located in a meditative park.
The limestone used in the Onstead-Packer Biblical Studies Building, Jacob's Dream and other campus facilities was quarried at Leuders, 30 miles north of Abilene on the Clear Fork of the Brazos River.
Abilene is on the migration route of hundreds of thousands of monarch butterflies in March-April and September-October. They spend the winter in Mexico. Often the butterflies will swarm over trees in front of the Administration Building. The larvae feed on milkweed. The scientific name for the migrating butterflies is Danaus plexippus.
The Airman George Merritt Page Jr. was serving as a door gunner with the Helicopter Attack (Light) Squadron Three Navy Seawolves when in April 1969, he was seriously wounded in action in the Mekong Delta region of South Vietnam. About two months later, Page died from his wounds. The San Diego, Calif., sailor intended to attend ACU after his Vietnam duty. His parents gave the flag that adorned his casket to ACU, and it is displayed high above the south side of Moody Coliseum as a memorial to Airman Page and other ex-students who have sacrificed their lives for their country. Military honors awarded to Page were the Purple Heart Medal, Air Medal and Combat Aircrew Wings, Combat Action Ribbon, Vietnam Gallantry Cross Unit Citation Ribbon with Palm, Vietnam Service and Campaign Medals, Vietnam Civil Actions Honor Medal Unit Citation Ribbon with Palm and National Defense Service Medal.
Students through the years have created unique stunts, mostly under cover of night, that have been the cause of chuckles, head-scratching, some consternation on the part of student deans, and atonement on the part of some stunters. The top five unique stunts have been:
1. Numbering consecutively with white shoe polish all cars parked on campus.
2. A student turning 100 baby chicks loose in Moody Chapel at Eastertime.
3. Hauling a small car to the top of the Administration Building.
4. Overnight trading of all accessories and books in two Bible faculty offices.
5. Conversion of the Graduate School of Theology into the "Hogwarts School of Theology" by replacing signage for each professor and common room with the names of characters and places from the Harry Potter series.

Members of the ACU Honors College have staged an annual quidditch match each Dead Day--a day off for students preceding finals week--for the last few years. The campus often comes alive with students and games on this day, and quiddiitch has been a long-running favorite. But, don't just look for it on Dead Day. Impromtu quidditch matches have been known to crop up every now and then.

Children's Health
How to Test Drugs on Kids? FDA Starts the Debate
Ironically, when members of Congress grilled the University of Southern California researchers in 1972 about the chloramphenicol experiment, they at first criticized the researchers for withholding needed drugs by including a placebo group, Murphy says. It was not until someone observed that most of the deaths were among babies in the group receiving treatment that the researchers were criticized for administering the antibiotic.
All of this leaves the FDA with a lot of ground to cover in a short time. FDA officials themselves have requested 332 studies involving children, of which they estimate about 282 will be conducted. Thanks to financial incentives passed by Congress in 1997, such as granting six additional months of marketing exclusivity rights for drug makers who conduct voluntary studies of their products on children, the number of studies initiated by someone other than the FDA has exploded over the past few years.
But for the FDA, that is good news, Murphy says. While some may believe that the USC experiment was unfounded, the principle that guided those researchers 40 years ago still applies today, she says. "Unless you have convincing evidence, nobody's going to believe you."

I must thanks Maria for my nick ( it should read CapelliiiiC, loud :). My old nick was chac.
I'm a senior SW engineer, I like languages, grammars, logic, and thus Prolog. My next preferred language is C++.
I think ecology it's the main theme we should, as a whole, attempt to understand and fight for right now. So, I'm vegetarian by a couple of years, thanks to my Maria for being a true food artist.
And I like invent, play guitar, play chess.
I also like 太极拳 (or T'ai Chi Ch'uan).
That mountain beyond my ugly face it's Monte Baldo, a beautiful relief delimiting Lago di Garda on east side. The picture was shot after a light climb on Monte Pizzocolo.
