UT Dallas Professor Receives Appointment To National Sickle Cell Disease Association
RICHARDSON, Texas (Nov. 20, 2006) — Dr. Betty Pace, director of the Sickle Cell Disease Research Center at The University of Texas at Dallas, is the new chief medical officer for the Sickle Cell Disease Association of America Inc.
"SCDAA is fortunate to have someone of Dr. Pace's caliber and stature in the sickle cell community to take the helm," said Dr. Willarda V. Edwards, president and chief operating officer of the national organization. Edwards said Pace brings knowledge and experience as a "leader for a large basic research and teaching laboratory focused on globin gene regulation and drug discovery for sickle cell disease.
Pace replaces Dr. Dorothy C. Moore, associate professor of pathology and laboratory medicine and director of immunology and diagnostic immunology at the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey.
In her new role, Pace will speak on health, scientific and medical matters of public concern; chair the organization's Medical and Research Advisory Committee; and serve as advisor on program development, fund raising and public relations. As chairperson of the advisory committee, she will oversee content development of public and professional educational materials w and approve of medical literature and official statements.
Sickle cell disease is an inherited blood disease that can cause serious health problems – some leading to death – among victims, most of whom are African-American or other individuals of African descent. It is estimated that eight percent of African-Americans are carriers of the sickle cell gene and are said to have sickle cell trait. Approximately two out of every 1,000 African-Americans suffer from the disease.
Pace received her medical degree from the Medical College of Wisconsin and completed a pediatric hematology/oncology fellowship at the University of Colorado Health Sciences Center. After completing post doctoral training in medical genetics at the University of Washington with world-renowned hemoglobin researcher Dr. George Stamatoyannopoulos, she joined the faculty at the University of South Alabama. Pace was recruited to the University of Texas at Dallas in January 2003 and also serves as a professor in university's Department of Molecular and Cell Biology.
For the past 12 years, the Pace laboratory has primarily studied the developmental regulation of Her groundbreaking research won her recognition in 2003 as one of the country's "Brilliant 10" scientists – a national honor awarded annually by Popular Science Magazine to 10 leading scientists performing "mind bending" research.
Pace's most recent accomplishments include providing leadership as editor of a major textbook, Renaissance of Sickle Cell Disease Research in the Genome Era. More than 40 authors from government officials to researchers and community leaders contributed to the work.
About SCDAA
For more than 30 years, the Sickle Cell Disease Association of America and its 100-plus member organizations and affiliates, located in more than 38 states, have demonstrated how community-based organizations can work as partners with local and state government agencies in the advancement of national health care objectives. In collaboration with member and other stakeholder organizations, national efforts of SCDAA involve five broad categories: services for families affected with sickle cell disease, community outreach, public health education, professional health education and medical research.

You can't make this shit up.What if a pregnant female is homeless?Would the fetus then also be a criminal?What if abortion is made illegal and a homeless pregnant female gets an illegal abortion?Could the criminally homeless female then get favorable treatment from the courts for preventing the criminally homeless fetus' existance?Perhaps the two crimes could be deemed to cancel each other out?
What can actually be done to help the homeless? It's clear his law is aimed simply at sweeping the problem out of view. Homelessness has become an embarrassment to most city leaders, but they are only dealing with the symptom with laws like this.

It's Illegal to be Homeless Now!
Is that supposed to mean that those who put people out on the street are party to the crime?
The article I linked to says the police give homeless a choice, go to a shelter in a different part of the city or go to jail. It's a move to get the homeless out of parts of downtown Columbia and keep them out.
No thought at all as to who caused the homeless problem, this is all to make things look better for downtown businesses. It's following the example of Portland, OR and Tampa, FL to get the homeless out and keep them out.
what about war veterans? they make up a substantial percentage of homeless. so it's okay to do that to a highly decorated vet?
I linked to the article, I'm certainly not saying it's okay to do that to anyone. It's become a major problem in American cities and some are taking this approach. If we can't work toward a better solution then okay or not it will be done to veterans and non veterans alike.
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/rev-hugh-hollowell/feeding-homeless-raleigh-police_b_3817641.html You can't even feed the homeless
The actions of that pastor (or should I say inaction?) bother me more then then the police or city in the story you linked to. At least there we have a simple solution. Step forward and quietly submit to arrest. Don't stand by and accept a wrong.
Next week show up with an many members of the community as you can find. Have all your people off obeying all the laws of the city then just walk up one after the other and let the police arrest you. You could send dozens of individuals out with picnic baskets one at a time. Let each quietly hand out food and get arrested.
Let the police arrest 20 or 100 good people to draw attention to this. Next month you could have several hundred, a thousand. Even if you eventually fail, you will at least have stood against something wrong. You can't just say this is wrong, you have to be willing to do something and point to the absurdity in whatever law they are using. You may even win.

Harris Lake Boat Launch
The following designations are used to indicate the agency that operates a particular boat launch site. Boaters should expect to pay a day use fee for launches within a DEC Campground during the camping season.
- (P) - Office of Parks, Recreation & Historic Preservation
- (C) - Canal Corporation
The following definitions will assist you in determining if a particular site will accommodate your boat:
- Hard surface or concrete ramp--site affords float-off and float-on launching for most trailered boats.
- Beach launch--no float-off or float-on trailered boat capability. Sites will accommodate the approach to the water's edge of small and light trailered boats. Boat may then be pushed on or off trailer. Usually shallow areas.
- Hand launch--no trailer capacity. Boats must be hand carried to the water.
Note: Boaters and Anglers, please remember that you can help prevent the spread of unwanted aquatic plant and animal species by following these guidelines:
- Remove all mud and aquatic plants from all gear, boats, motors and trailers before departing from your fishing location
- Drain all water including bilges, live wells, and bait tanks before departing from your fishing location
- Do not transport fish from one body of water to another
- Do not release unused bait into a body of water
- Do not dispose of fish carcasses or by-products in any body of water
- Harris Lake : (D) - Essex County, Campground. Off Route 28N, 3 miles north of the Hamlet of Newcomb. Parking for 15 cars and trailers. Beach launch.

This project aims to renovate an existing GSA building in Los Angeles to reach net zero energy. The architects identified the existing problems of the site and function and sought practical and expressive solutions to last for the next fifty years. Like reconstructive surgery, this application addresses the core issues of an unhealthy building and seeks to revitalise the site into a vibrant part of society.
Design Proposal First, the design removes the existing centre core and lifts the skin. With telecommuting woven into new business models, the designers are able to reduce the area within the core to provide energy savings at a 1:1 ratio. Obsolete offices are replaced by cloud computing servers, allowing employees to work from home, the park, the beach or anywhere. This area reduction substantially mitigates the environmental impact of commuter automobile traffic. It also allows for a slimmer office footprint to reduce cooling load and bring more daylight into the building.
Next, the skin is opened to allow prevailing breezes into the core and provide a welcomed pedestrian entry. The roof rises to become an occupied solar lens, harnessing solar energy for the building's use and creating an active green roof, physically bending upward and toward the incoming sunlight at the location of highest solar exposure. Finally, the sustainable systems are made visible to all.
The core of the atrium hosts the mechanical systems, exposed and celebrated as a functional sculpture within the building. This gesture displays the 'motherboard' of the building to educate occupants citizens and visitors as to how their sustainable systems are working for them. Among these systems are living machines incorporated into the landscape and an operable ETFE panelised cover embedded with Building Integrated Photovoltaics. By revamping and revealing the building's elements, we offer an environment in which members of the community can fully understand and enjoy the rewards of a thriving and sustainable workplace.

It has now become obvious that this person has registered my child with every porn site on the planet forcing me to close the email address. So far my boy has recieved 300 emails including some of the most grotesque pictures that would make pain lovers proud. My response, apart from closing the email account, is to download and use as many mass mailing list programs that i could find, but i don't think i found them all. Anyone know of a few?

Queen Elizabeth Breaks Silence On LGBT Community To Wish Gay Organization Happy Anniversary
In what is believed to be the first time the monarch has ever spoken publicly to gay rights issues, Queen Elizabeth wished U.K. LGBT org Gay Switchboard a happy 40th anniversary.
Gay Star News provides some background:
Queen Elizabeth II has praised a gay charity, in what is believed to be her first ever comment about the LGBTI community.
In her 62-year reign of the UK and the Commonwealth, she has never once visited or become a patron of a charity for gay rights.
And even in reforming laws for the community, such as when homosexuality was decriminalized or same-sex marriage in England and Wales passed into law, the words 'gay', 'lesbian', 'bisexual', and 'transgender' have never been reported as crossing the lips of the reigning monarch.
But that changed Friday. "Best wishes and congratulations to all concerned on this most special anniversary," the Queen said in a special message to Gay Switchboard.
The organization mans phone lines to provide a "non-judgmental ear" to anyone struggling with sexuality or looking for more information on being LGBTI.
Prime Minister David Cameron joined the Queen in praising the group. "Over the 40 years since it was established, the London Lesbian & Gay Switchboard has made a real difference day in and day out to the lives of LGB&T people," he said. "I would like to pay tribute to the volunteers and staff of the switchboard for their dedication to providing help and support to the LGB&T community and I wish you every success in the future."
I am not surprised to hear this the queen has always loved her queens , I mean sir Elton john , the laundry list of gay chaps who have been knighted , I wouldn't be surprised if her butler happens to be ... Gay is not unusual I would be more happier hearing that gay wasn't such a big Effie deal

I just picked up my first AES from Japan and was about to tear into it when I realized that the original rubber feet had never been touched and the rest looks immaculate. The feet are kinda spongy and I know I would damage them if I removed them unnecessarily. I figure I'd better hold off on that until at least getting a Japanese AES game to test in it, especially after the "junk" white Sega Saturn and black Sega Virtua Gun I recently bought for 780 and 50 Yen both ended up working perfectly.
It seems to be a newer model that takes the 5W 9v POW3 power supply. I think that's about 2A and I definitely have a few 9v PSUs around that can handle it. Unfortunately the wiki does not tell me the polarity. I know that most Japanese consoles of the era were center-negative. Is that the case here as well?
Being "junk" it didn't come with AV cables or a joystick either but I have created functional joysticks using the Neo-Geo X Gold replicas and an extension cable. For the AV, can I get by with a Genesis model 1 AV cable? If so, I still won't have a game to test. I seem to recall hearing that I should get a blue screen if I boot without a game cartridge and any other color indicates a fault. Is this correct?
I can tell by peeking in the cartridge slot that the original Japanese BIOS hasn't been touched and the cart connector looks like new except for the Japanese pubic hair I found inside. Wish I were joking! If what I can't see inside looks as good as what I can see everywhere else then I expect it to look like new everywhere else inside.
The listing described that it doesn't power on but I've heard of several people buying junk/defective/not-working AES consoles and finding that it's not true for them... they boot up with some other problem. Can't test this until I get those adapter specs and but I'm curious to see if history repeats itself.

BurdaStyle readers, a question: Since so many of us live in parts of the world where clothes can be purchased relatively cheaply and few people are forced by economic necessity to make their own, why are we doing it?
I had this conversation with a friend recently. We agreed that there is a growing do-it-yourself crafts movement afoot and wondered what might be fueling it. My friend wisely pointed out that few of us are doing work that actually involves making anything anymore; we're writing at a computer, or processing numbers, or providing services. It feels good to create something with our own hands. It's a form of self-expression.
Thinking more about it this week, I began to realize that for me there is also an element of protest in my choice to make my own clothes, of resistance to the way clothing is manufactured in the world today.
It comes out of the awareness that companies generally pursue a strategy of chasing the lowest labor costs they can find — first within the USA, and then wherever in the world they can go. Many have no qualms about outsourcing jobs to countries that use child labor, have weak environmental regulation, are virulently anti-union, and maintain unsafe working conditions. It means they can increase profits faster, which is what corporate stockholders demand.
Outsourcing of jobs in the USA is done without regard to the effects these practices might have on the communities that have watched so many industries move from northern to southern states (where labor was cheaper), and then out of the country entirely. You can see the effects of this everywhere, in nearly every American city that used to rely on private industry for jobs. Many formerly thriving urban centers are today hollowed out, some literally in ruins.
I don't want to support these practices anymore. Obviously, 100% purity can be difficult to maintain. Sometimes you need a pair of underwear and there's no other option than to buy something imported from a low-wage country. Or you purchase a few yards of cheap imported cotton knit and you don't want to know who wove it or under what conditions.
It's a lot like food. Do you ever wonder how those grapes ended up in your fruit salad, under what conditions they were picked, sorted, and shipped, and by whom? The answer can be alarming.
Clothing manufacturers have, furthermore, branded us to death, marketing their products as symbols of sex, youth, escape — even, paradoxically, anti-consumerism! The message is that if we wear a certain pair of jeans we'll look like Che Guevara or John Lennon or James Dean.
I don't want to care what someone may or may not think of me based on my brand of sneakers or underwear or sunglasses. I am not a brand and neither are you.
It can be hard to resist consumer culture and it can be pleasurable to participate. But it's nice to know that my jeans are originals, made by me, and that just weeks ago my T-shirt was just generic knit yardage on a bolt.
Readers, how about you? Do you sew just to have a great-fitting pair of pants or skirt, or are you also making a statement about who you are and what you believe in?
When you wear your own handiwork, are you hoping simply to blend in or, on some level, are you making a statement of resistance about the status quo?
Also make sure to check out Peter's Jeans Sew-Along starting Monday, May 2nd on his blog Male Pattern Boldness!
When native New Yorker Peter Lappin bought his first sewing machine two years ago to hem a pair of thrift store jeans, little did he know he was initiating a journey that would bring him fame and fortune. While awaiting his fortune he stays busy writing "the world's most popular men's sewing blog," Male Pattern Boldness, and now contributing to BurdaStyle.

Hello adafruit! I have read your tutorial about the MCP23017 http://learn.adafruit.com/mcp230xx-gpio ... spberry-pi but I'm wondering how the I2C addressing works. I have read somewhere that it uses 7 bit addressing, but how can you control that with only three pins? I also read that the base address is 20, but somewhere else I read 40. How can I determine this from the datasheet?
I'm planning to make this addressing a bit flexible using headers and jumpers, do you recommend that I use pull down resistors on A0 to A2 (0 when open, 1 when closed)?

Gov. Fletcher makes a point during the No ChildLeft Offline presentation ceremony in Louisa, KY.A PC and software sit on display in the forgroundwhile Gov. Fletcher addresses students, parents and other dignitaries during the presentation.
On Jan. 24, 2007, Gov. Ernie Fletcher visited Lawrence County to present free home computers, software and printers to 105 sixth-grade students and their families through the No Child Left Offline program.
It was the seventh distribution of computers through No Child Left Offline, an innovative program in which surplus computers are refurbished and distributed to middle school students who otherwise would have no home access to the world of online information and communication.
American Electric Power Foundation (AEP) is funding 500 computers through No Child Left Offline, including the 105 distributed in January. AEP is the parent company of Kentucky Power, which provides utility service to approximately 175,000 customers in all or a portion of 20 eastern Kentucky counties.
"The American Electric Power Foundation is investing in our communities in an outstanding way," Gov. Fletcher said. "For these students and their families, a computer provides an opportunity unlike any other and allows them to reach the entire world from Lawrence County."
"This AEP Foundation grant exemplifies the importance that AEP and Kentucky Power place on education. It is less about hard drives, RAM and monitors and more about educational opportunities for Kentucky students," said Tim Mosher, president and chief operating officer of Kentucky Power, on the foundation's behalf. "These computers will provide knowledge, information and insight at their fingertips. The foundation is pleased to be a part of this initiative."
No Child Left Offline, a ConnectKentucky program, brings together public and private partners to help Kentucky households join the Information Age. The program is the most comprehensive initiative of its kind undertaken by any state in the nation. It ensures that thousands of computers will be saved from landfills and used for the benefit of Kentucky families.
Today, approximately 215,000 Kentucky children live in homes without computers. No Child Left Offline is designed to help those families by providing access to technology where there is the greatest need. For many families, owning a computer is the first step to reaching the world of opportunities available through the Internet.
ConnectKentucky, a nonprofit organization that promotes technology-based economic development in the commonwealth, is coordinating the project with operational support from the Kentucky Department for Commercialization and Innovation and the Governor's Office for Local Development. Additional state support is provided by the Education Cabinet, the Commonwealth Office of Technology and Kentucky Correctional Industries. Microsoft Corporation™, CA, Inc. and Lexmark International donated software and printers to the project.
With the AEP Foundation donation, nearly 1,300 No Child Left Offline computers have been distributed to families in seven Kentucky counties. Groups interested in participating may submit requests to email@example.com.
No Child Left Offline is an innovative program that puts quality computers in the homes of students that need them most. Through the support of public and private partners, No Child Left Offline is bringing Kentuckians into the Information Age.
ConnectKentucky is leading the way into a new economy for Kentuckians. As an independent technology-based economic development organization, ConnectKentucky works to ensure that Kentucky remains the place of choice to work, live and raise a family. ConnectKentucky is an alliance of technology-minded businesses, governmental entities and universities working together to accelerate technology in the commonwealth.

Having completed my second year at the University of Dallas, I am more assured that I was correct in choosing physics as my major. I enjoy the Liberal Arts education I am experiencing at the University of Dallas, both in Irving, TX and Rome, Italy. The mathematical inquiry and discovery associated with physics is what has drawn me -and has kept me drawn - to the field. I am doing research this summer at the University of Dallas and at the University of Delaware on thin film studies for semi-conductors with one of my professors, Dr. Matthew M. Waite. This research has further enhanced my appreciated for applicational physics of business and life. This is my primary interest in the field of physics.
With the researh I do and the application of physics in the world in which we live, I hope to find ways to create products to make life better so that we may, as Descartes wrote, be able to control nature and have fruit from the earth without sweat of our brow.

Most court cases start with one side accusing another of wrongdoing. Fashion's latest legal challenge starts a bit differently. Spanx, the shapewear company founded by Sara Blakely in 2000, received a demand from Yummie Tummie, a shapewear company founded in 2008 by Real Housewives of New York City star Heather Thomson, to stop selling their Total Taming Tank and Top This Cami. Yummie Tummie believed those two products infringed on patents for their signature shapewear.

By William Hageman
Chicago Tribune
There are certain truths that become evident at back-to-school time for most of us: The kids still haven't stopped growing and we need to update their comically ill-fitting wardrobes. The school supply list is longer, and the prices higher, than last year. The family is woefully disorganized.
Thank goodness for people such as Ellen Delap, a certified professional organizer in Kingwood, Texas, with a smart blog (professional-organizer.com/WordPress). She also works as a family manager coach. Her expertise can make that transition into the new school year, and the months ahead, smoother. Here are some tips from Delap.
Three-part process: Organizing for the school year goes beyond slapping a planner on the wall (though that's not a bad idea). Delap says there are three areas that need to be well-regulated: your house, your schedule and your finances. The house and schedule are obvious (more on them later). Financial organizing is sometimes overlooked. There are a lot of checks that need to go out in the fall – extracurricular fees, ballet lessons and the like. Relegate them to one spot and keep on top of them. Bills, like scheduling, can be overwhelming when they start pouring in.
Command center: Set up a command center, one spot where all planning is done. It should have a desk-top sorter, a wall area with dry erase calendars, and wall pockets for papers (incoming mail, permission slips, school papers that need to be signed, tax receipts, etc.). Yes, we live in a growing electronic society, but we still have to deal with paperwork. Triage it, sorting the urgent from the merely important and the trash.
Family calendar: Whether digital or that calendar stuck to the wall or fridge, the calendar lists what's going on in individuals' lives, where they need to be and when. Potential conflicts can be headed off. "These are critical," Delap says.
Weekly meeting: A weekly family meeting is a great way to ensure everyone is in the game. "Families live in the moment so much, even something like a vacation, you won't talk about until the last minute," Delap says. A weekly meeting reminds everyone what is coming up. Attendance is mandatory. If one of the kids balks, well, have the meeting be the time allowances are handed out. The kids will attend.
Basic routines: Set specific times for regular tasks, based on family members' schedules. Is Saturday generally a slower day? Make that laundry day. Too much laundry for one day? Break the chore into two days. Make Friday grocery shopping night. "We always know the trash is collected a certain day," she says. "So find one or two family members to take the trash out the night before." Delap also suggests posting a chart listing the various jobs. "Then it's not like you're nagging."
'I hate this!' No one loves every task he or she is assigned. If little Rico grumbles about unloading the dishwasher, give him another job, one he will like better. It's all about getting the family to work as a team. "When you create these partnerships for responsibility, it's a lot more fun," Delap says. "No one wants to be left in the kitchen alone."
Dealing with emergencies: If you have a routine in place, family members can adjust to take up the slack for a missing member. That also serves to strengthen the family and engender a feeling of accomplishment.
Materials needed: Dry erase board, desktop sorter, supplies to organize papers and forms, calendar

It sounds like you're dismissing it because of the source (ad hominem). One could simply post links to "bible gateway" with the same scriptures. Do you also believe that the contradictions pointed out in the Skeptics' Annotated Qur'an and Book of Mormon are also bunk, too? Or did they just happen to get those ones right?
But it's nice that you at least linked to a video with an argument. However, cognitive bias plays an important role in protecting one from seeing contradictions. Every religion argues that the contradictions in their bibles aren't really contradictions at all... what a coincidence.
Take an example that you'll probably agree with me on -- the Mormon bible talks about the existence of steel roughly 2000 years before it was invented (and yes, I learned about it on The Skeptics' Annotated Book of Mormon). Mormons claim it isn't contradictory because that sword could have been "miracled" into place for Laban's use. But the Book of Mormon was supposedly translated from Egyptian Hieroglyphs, and there isn't a glyph for a material that didn't exist (like steel) until recent years... so even if a miracle placed this impossible material in ancient times, there's no way for the supposed author of the story to have written about it.
And yet Mormonism persists, despite this and many other problems with their bible. They still believe that their bible is true, despite the fact that non-believers can clearly see many things in their holy book that aren't true. But I'm sure they're rationalizing their belief and you're not, because they're biased and you're not... right?
My girlfriend is mad at me. Perhaps I shouldn't have tried cooking a stick in her non-stick pan.

You'll have to show me. I've never looked at their islam or LDS stuff. You realise Christianity/Mormonism, Judaism and Islam are all part of the same Abrahamic monotheism right? Its a pretty big tent - all having differing theologies about the same One God.
I find the SAB folk have an unusual definition of the word contradiction. Eg. one person describing Jesus' robe as scarlet and someone else describing it as purple, doesnt seem like a contradiction to me - let alone an incisive counter-apologetic 'gotcha'.
...especially if the later was reporting the color of a robe stained by dried blood, seen later in the day than the person who saw a clean scarlet color.

RE: [split] Debating Lion IRC
Islam did not originate from a monotheistic culture. Sometime AFTER the Satanic versses were removed they declared themselves so. Thay are also not Abrahamic, in any way. They declare themselves so. It is simply historically false.
Judaism, until very late in it's history, (post Exile) was not monotheistic. Yahweh had a wife, and there is proof and eviidence for that all over the ancient Near East, and in the worship centers of Yahweh, including Beth-El, Dan and even Jerusalem. Her name was Ashera. It also did not come in any way from monotheism. Look at the First Commandment ... "no OTHER gods before me". The belief in other deities was ubiquitous in the ancient Near East, and the constant reversion on the Hebrews to Baal worship, etc is well known to anyone who has ever actually read the Hebrew scriptures, and not just spouting drivel they learned in Sunday school.

RE: [split] Debating Lion IRC
Anyway, getting back to the Resurrection...
Here's my two starting points. (It seems a lot of Resurrection debates start at the end and work back. I rather start at these two because they seem to me, to be the most elementary.)
a) Opportunity
b) Motive
Nobody has challenged that omnipotent God has the ability to do this. And the only way to escape this conclusion is to argue that God doesnt even exist, which is a separate debate. I have also reasoned that, if you assert there is no God to raise people from the grave (or to an afterlife,) then why bother arguing against the Resurrection AT ALL? The ''no-God hypothesis'' wouldnt stand or fall depending on a gnat-straining debate of just one single New Testament miracle.
The point here is you have to concede that; if God, ---> then yes, miracles ARE possible.
On motive, I have argued twofold. Firstly, the motive of God is relevant and if He has a reasonable motive then the Resurrection is reasonable. Secondly, the motive of those declaring the historical events are true. (Motive is paramount in evaluating the historicity of the accounts we have.)
I have given a simple outline of Gods motive for action previously;

Now I would like to tackle and dismantle the bizarre theories about the sort of ulterior motives a person might have for fabricating an account of things (which appeared miraculous) following the death of Jesus of Nazareth.
There are a few stock theories but I wont present straw arguments and then challenge them. So I will invite people like atothetheist to submit the ones they feel are logical, reasonable or based in historical evidence.
Why would Jesus' disciples WANT to publically declare falsehoods about the post-death appearances? (Especially given that lying is a Ten Commandment sin and especially given that these people believe in God's punishment of sin.)
Why would it not have been easier to simply let it go, and put it in the ''too hard basket'' of Jewish Messianic theology? Just revert back to the familiar and comfortable,
pre-Jesus Judaism where you started and live out the rest of your life in the same old synagogues talking about who the next ''failed'' Messiah would be.
Note that I am not claiming that humans never risk death and persecution for something (propaganda) which is not or may not actually be true. What I am asking however, is, what is the motive for doing so when you KNOW it is a fabrication - and one that is so astonishing that people will kill you even for the very act of simply making the claim.
The two options seem to be;
- yes I know its a lie but I MUST declare it because.....
- no, it's not a lie and I MUST declare it because.....
RE: [split] Debating Lion IRC
Since i cant argue the the very existance of god, i will simply go with this: Jesus did not resurrect simply because he wasn't the "messiah" according to several books and writings found in the old testament. He failed to build the third temple (Ezekiel 37:26-28), he failed to usher in a thousand years of world peace and failed to unite the children of israel (Isaiah 2:4 and Isaiah 43:5-6) He failed in other ways....He failed in every respect to fulfill any prophecy.
He couldn't have resurrected because he was just fairy tale made up by Saul of Tarsus -- long after he was forgotten and the idea of him revived (again by Saul and a few others fed up with following all the god's laws ). A nice game of nothing more than Chinese whispers built on exaggerations and outright lies and misconceptions.
But as if to knock me down, reality came around

Unfortunately, there is no proof of even one New Testament miracle and ALL the messiah figures of the 1st Century were seen to have done miracles, so that argument falls flat on it's face, and is totally worthless. It was a culture, where "magic" and miracles were everywhere. So that fails utterly. Thus the resurrection, as just another of the ubuquitous miracles also fails. Sorry.
The gospels were not eyewitness accounts, and they were written for proclamation in liturgical services to be read/sung to believers, to remind them what they already believed. They are in no way reliable. It was an era of Pious Fraud, (http://www.ftarchives.net/foote/crimes/c5.htm ), where deception to achieve a goal, was considered acceptable. Thus everything they say is unreliable.There is no independant documentation of ANY Nrew Testament "miracle" and many reasons to doubt that what they were witnessing was in fact trus, as so much of the resurrection nonsense was obviously false, (seen by 500 ... who were NEVER documented). At the end of Matthew in Galilee it says they saw him, and it STILL says they "doubted". So whatever they were seeing, they were not certain, and they did not recognize him.

OK thats not really an atheistic response to the issue of motive but I'll put this on my ''To Do'' list.
Gnostic Rebuttal #1
God might exist and Jesus might have been Resurrected if He had been the actual Messiah but He wasnt because a non-Christian interpretation/exegesis of OT scripture shows this not to be the case, therefore prevailing belief that He was the true Messsiah is mistaken, and He was, instead, just an ordinary person. Therefore NO MATTER WHAT evidence is presented about His post-mortem appearances, they must be discounted on that basis and some gnostic or naturalistic explanation then becomes mandatory and we will await some future actual Messiah.
RE: [split] Debating Lion IRC
The first Christian to write about a "resurrected Jesus" was Paul. There are very good reason the think he did not intend to say that he "physically rose". http://www.thethinkingatheist.com/forum/...surrection
This is NOT a "atheist" response. It's from the Professor of NT at Tulsa, a good Christian.

WALL CLOCKS by Milton Glaser
Your discount will be applied.
These series of wall clock is from the mind of one the worlds most famous and iconic graphic designers, Milton Glaser, who also created the I♥NY logo.
- 'Reductous' is one of the most simplified versions of a clock face ever designed.
- 'Presto' is not merely a clock, it is a visual accompaniment to the passage of time.

To many, Milton Glaser is the embodiment of American graphic design during the latter half of this century. His presence and impact on the profession internationally is formidable. Immensely creative and articulate, he is a modern renaissance man — one of a rare breed of intellectual designer-illustrators, who brings a depth of understanding and conceptual thinking, combined with a diverse richness of visual language, to his highly inventive and individualistic work.

Welcome Week at CIU
Some came in hatchbacks stuffed to the roof. Some came with U-Hauls in tow. Some came in a taxi from the airport. But all have one thing in common. Their first year at Columbia International University is about to begin.
About 130 CIU freshmen and transfer students were welcomed outside the freshmen residence halls Aug.16 by upperclassmen with encouraging smiles and plenty of muscle as they helped the new students move in.
Some of the freshmen hugged and shook hands with each other like old friends, having met during CIU's Preview Days. Dads and moms followed lugging suitcases, laundry bags and even some bicycles.
Welcome Week includes "Connect: CIU," an orientation to college life CIU style. During the week the new students will meet their RAs and go over the ground rules for life in the residence halls, learn about study skills and student organizations, and get to know each other at a variety of social events.
The theme for "Connect CIU" is a play on words: "Shofar So Good." It's a way to introduce the students to the new CIU mascot, the ram. As the students unloaded their family cars, Old Testament Professor Bryan Beyer was blowing the shofar – a ram's horn used in the Old Testament to call the Israelites together for important events.
New CIU seminary and graduate students will have their orientation on Aug. 22. CIU classes begin on Aug. 23.

The Governor Park Trammel Oral History Collection includes seven interviewees of relatives, friends, and political acquaintances of Governor Park Trammel.
Interviews provide insight into and impressions of Florida's 21st governor (Democrat), Park Trammell, who governed from 1913 to 1917. His career covered a broad political spectrum: mayor of Lakeland, Florida; legislator;, Florida attorney general; Governor of Florida;, and U.S. senator (1916-1936). These interviews, which were centered around events in the first half of the 20 th century, were conducted in the mid-1970s.
The Governor Park Trammell Oral History Collection is part of the Samuel Proctor Oral History Program is an affiliated program of the University of Florida's Department of History. Its collections include approximately 4,000 interviews and more than 85,000 pages of transcribed material, making it the largest oral history archive in the South and one of the major collections in the country. The transcribed interviews are available for use by research scholars, students, journalists, genealogists, and other interested groups. Researchers have used our oral history material for theses, dissertations, articles, and books.
Digitization of the collection has been funded in part by the generous donation of Caleb and Michele Grimes.

Went to a training seminar put on by Johnstone Supply the other day on 422D and r-407F and other blends by Honeywell. They gave out a free voucher for a free cylinder of your choice. Pretty Cool, they even fed us!
My take is it is a lot more complicated to retrofit R-22 to the new blends. They said there really is no true "drop in" refrigerants made, with out changing over to a different oil and possible changing or adjusting TXV's.
I really don't think the Air Conditioning side will do much with changing over to the 422D refrigerant, as most R-22 equipment such as heat pumps and air conditioners it would be more value for the customer to just upgrade to 410A. I would want to try and sell a new system over doing a retrofit. My personnel opinion.
Were I see the 422D and R-404F being used is in Supermarkets,Warehouses and other large refrigeration systems. Were the capital cost of changing
to updated systems would be not be viable.
I am in the Residential side of the business and here in Florida we can only legally install matched systems so the Dry Ships around here are typically being permitted. So using it for dry ships would not work for me.
Are any of you using it for small systems such as heat pumps or Air Conditioners?

I did a test on TMAX 100, developed in HC 110. I followed the BTZS procedure, and plotted the data in the "Plotter" software as per instruction. I ended up with a very narrow SBR range 3.1 to 4.3, and a chart of EFS versus N numbers, ranging only from N + 2 to N+3.
Can anyone help me out as to why the narrow ranges?
I did a simlar test with the same film, but with D-76, and the SBR range is quite a bit wider, 4 to 11.3, and it plots the N ranges from N-4 to N+2.

BEIJING (AP) — Newly appointed Chinese Premier Li Keqiang is pledging to slash China's central government payroll and freeze spending on new vehicles and other perks, amid falling revenue growth.
Li told reporters at an annual news conference Sunday that funds flowing into central government coffers increased by just 1.6 percent over January and February.
Li says that although such low growth is expected to continue, spending on social programs will only increase, forcing the government to cut back in other areas.
He says that, in response, no new central government offices, halls or guest houses will be built, staff numbers will tumble, and spending on government hospitality, overseas trips and new vehicles will be curtailed.
Extravagant government spending, resulting in waste and enabling corruption, has long stirred public resentment.

A Martha Stewart Staffer's Colorful, Very Organized Kitchen
With a color-coordinated, Roy G. Biv-ishly arranged dish display like this one, we're not even sure we needed to say her name. This kitchen belongs to the magazine's design director, and the rest of the space is just as immaculate and charming.
This was featured in a 2008 issue of Martha Stewart Living, but we'd never seen it until we found it on the website. It's a modest Manhattan kitchen that was gutted and outfitted to corral everything from dishware to a large collection of magazines (surprise).
In fact, the magazine storage might be our favorite thing about the space. It's so simple, but so clean and organized. And almost everything is hidden behind uniform cabinetry—even the refrigerator and dishwasher—so there's no clutter.
• See the full slideshow, including before pictures and recipes from the housewarming party, at MarthaStewart.com.
We're also loving that laser cut rug. It looks so stylish and durable at the same time.

California Criminal Defense Center
California Criminal Defense Center is a Southern California law office that exclusively practices DUI Defense and Criminal Defense throughout all major counties of Southern California. Every one of our clients at California Criminal Defense Center is guaranteed representation by a highly experienced DUI lawyer and criminal defense lawyer who has successfully litigated and negotiated several thousand criminal and DUI cases ranging from simple misdemeanors to serious and violent felonies.
Unlike many law offices that assign client cases to young associates, attorney Ardalon Fakhimi will personally handle all significant aspects of your case from start to finish, including all settlement discussions, negotiations, and the trial. He will personally answer all of your questions and navigate you through every stage of your case. We never use inexperienced associates who are just learning the practice of DUI law and criminal law. Similarly, we are NOT a high volume law office. Rather, we emphasize a very personalized attorney-client relationship where our clients are in continuous contact with their DUI and criminal lawyer; not their lawyer's assistant. Finally, we are a detail-oriented law office that meticulously strategizes every case. That means no stone remains unturned during the course of our representation and through the final disposition of your case.
If you'd like to speak to a top DUI or criminal defense lawyer in Los Angeles, please call us at (310) 963-2417 and Mr. Fakhimi will be glad to evaluate your case at no cost or obligation to you. Similarly, if you are in need of an experienced DUI or criminal defense lawyer in Orange County, please call us at (949) 375-6308 and Mr. Fakhimi will make arrangements to meet you in one of our Orange County offices.
Why Choose Us
In the criminal justice system, individuals charged with a crime are typically asked, "What crime did you commit?" At California Criminal Defense Center, our criminal defense team asks, "Which of your rights have been violated?"
Choosing the right criminal defense lawyer or DUI lawyer is the first critical step in the process of ensuring that your rights are protected when charged with a crime. Our criminal defense team has an unparalleled work ethic and stands amongst the most knowledgeable, strategic, and aggressive criminal defense lawyers in California's criminal law community. After many years of criminal trial work, we have become familiar with the practice habits of judges and prosecutors throughout Southern California. Our success is defined by our unique familiarity with the courts and our ability to use this knowledge to create a strategic plan for every case.
Every experienced DUI lawyer and criminal defense lawyer can tell you that a proper strategy is essential when representing clients charged with a crime. That means, in order to reach optimum results in your case, you should hire a DUI lawyer and criminal defense lawyer who has in-depth familiarity with the process; one whose experience has given him insight that cannot be uncovered by legal research. This level of familiarity can only be acquired by lawyers who are immersed in the daily practice of criminal law. As a result, such a lawyer will know when to negotiate a case, how to negotiate a case, when to go to trial, and most importantly, how to avoid the inherent pitfalls in every case that can make matters worse.
At California Criminal Defense Center, our DUI lawyers and criminal defense attorneys offer the most sophisticated and zealous legal representation available. Not only do we offer a superior level of skill, knowledge and experience, but we utilize a variety of resources to stay abreast of the most recent changes in both DUI law and criminal law. Finally, we take great pride in always being available to our clients. Unlike most firms, we have implemented a system whereby our clients can reach their lawyer either immediately or within a few short hours.

My Big Fattening Greek Salad
Are french fries the new Marlboros?
If the various lawsuits against "Big Food"—the teens suing McDonald's because they're obese or the guy who sued Kraft over too-yummy Oreos chock-full of trans fat—look familiar, they should. The suits have been organized, plotted, and launched by some of the same advocates who brought you those big tobacco suits in the 1980s and '90s. While none of these cases has yet found its way before a jury (the McDonald's complaint was dismissed in January with leave to file again), Big Food is scared. Kraft is downsizing its portions, McDonald's is said to be testing a Happy Meal with fresh fruit instead of fries, and Frito-Lay is cutting the evil trans fats from their Doritos.
All this despite the fact that most Americans think the "fat suits" are silly. Then again, we thought the tobacco suits were silly once. Two of the main architects of the suits against unhealthy foods are veterans of the tobacco wars: Richard A. Daynard is a professor at Northeastern University School of Law and chairman of the Tobacco Products Liability Project. John F. Banzhaf III is a law professor at George Washington University and executive director of Action on Smoking and Health, or ASH. Both concede that the tobacco companies differ in crucial ways from Big Food. For one thing, people must eat to live, whereas no one needs to smoke. For another, there was compelling evidence that the tobacco companies knowingly torqued up the addictive content in their product and systematically lied about the dangers, whereas there is little evidence that Big Food did the same. (Of course, proponents of the fat suits contend that we won't know until the discovery phase of these trials what fast food companies really knew about their product or did to make it more dangerous.) Perhaps most vitally, most food companies maintain that, if used in tandem with exercise and a balanced diet, their (junk) foods are actually good for you.
Opponents of the Big Food suits point out that since obesity clusters with other unhealthy behaviors—including lack of exercise and sedentary lifestyles—it's impossible to prove causation for liability purposes. And proving causation is doubly hard where, unlike smokers, who tend to show brand loyalty, junk-food addicts often eat at any number of unhealthy places—which is why the first (failed) McDonald's plaintiff, Caesar Barber, had to name Burger King, KFC, and Wendy's as defendants as well.
The inability to show causation or even ill will on the part of the food companies doesn't daunt the plaintiffs' lawyers, who contend that they will turn the tide of public opinion just as they did in the tobacco cases, which saw the tobacco companies settling with the various states for more than $240 billion. More profoundly, they argue, Ronald McDonald and friends can be prosecuted under simple product liability and consumer protection theories merely for failing to warn consumers that their products are dangerous. There need be no conspiracy, no backroom deals to spray yet more fat on the fries. It may be enough that the food is not healthy and carries no warnings. (Evidently in France Le McDonald's now carries signs suggesting that one indulge only once a week.)
Oh, but there are the wackier legal theories: Some anti-Big-Foodists contend not only that fast food is indeed addictive, like cigarettes, but that their purveyors similarly manipulate the ingredients to make them more so. Dr. Neal Barnard, a respected nutritionist, has recently argued that cheese contains a protein that breaks down into morphinelike compounds ("Gimme 30 cc's of gouda, stat") and other opiates that can create addictions. And Daynard and others argue that a steady diet of junk food leads one to crave more and larger portions just to feel sated.
In 2001, the surgeon general produced a report calling obesity an epidemic, claiming that it caused $117 billion in health-care costs and lost wages and killed 300,000 people a year. Banzhaf says that if there are demonstrable societal costs to obesity, then Big Food must pay: "A fast-food company like McDonald's may not be responsible for the entire obesity epidemic," he told Time magazine this week, "but let's say they're 5% responsible. Five percent of $117 billion is still an enormous amount of money." And believe it or not, the settlement in the Big Tobacco cases may have opened the door for precisely this sort of logic.
Ironically, it may well be that Big Alcohol escaped the fury of these reformers precisely because it's been willing to concede that its product was dangerous. Alcohol makers have successfully disseminated the message that their products, while fun in moderation, can be dangerously abused. Thus far, Big Food has not even been willing to concede this point in private. Then there's the fact that alcohol consumption is declining while obesity is rising alarmingly. Finally, it's much harder to persuade a jury that drinkers weren't warned of the dangers of alcohol.
Even if these lawyers can't prove Big Food is addictive or that Burger King—as opposed to Taco Bell—is responsible, these lawsuits may ultimately persuade jurors merely because of the effect of junk food on—surprise!—the children. By recently refocusing these cases on the effect on kids, lawyers can fudge the addiction issue. They'll argue that Big Food poured billions of dollars into commercials targeting children and that they knew in advance the ill effect their product would have on those impressionable minds.
There is something creepily paternalistic in the arguments put forth by the food nannies. They tend to say that while they are smart enough to read labels or look up fat contents on the Wendy's Web site, the poor, disadvantaged single mommies are not that sophisticated. One would hope that even the poorest single mom knows that eating McNuggets every day is unhealthy. And—since obesity doesn't happen in a day—one would hope that even the most unsophisticated parent would cut back on the KFC if her child started to split her Wranglers.
But there is something equally creepy in the efforts to stave off the Big Food suits either with ridicule or with legislative action—including the "Personal Responsibility in Food Consumption Act" now in markup, which would limit liability for food producers from obesity lawsuits.Even frivolous lawsuits deserve their day in court. That's why we have judges: to throw them out.
The best solution doubtless lies someplace between the absurd extremes. As Ben Kelly points out in today's Washington Post, Big Food will likely survive just by moderating its behavior, posting warnings, and taking it easy on peddling their junk to the kiddies. But we may want to keep an eye on the John Banzhafs of the world, who have observed that their next target may well be "Big Milk"—full of saturated fats and cholesterol and not nearly as healthy as those moustache commercials would suggest.
