ViewSonic ViewPad 10Pro boots an Intel Oak Trail CPU into Windows 7 Pro, virtualizes Android

The ViewPad 10 era is over, here comes the epoch of the ViewPad 10Pro. Beyond the introduction of Intel's Oak Trail Z670 1.5GHz processor, the new Windows 7 Pro / Android 2.2 dual-boot tablet throws in a 3G radio, 32GB of onboard storage (expandable via MicroSD or USB), and a 3500mAh battery that's rated to last for 4.5 hours of 1080p video playback. It's one of Intel's promised 10+ Android tablets coming at this year's Computex, though it has the appreciable advantage of being able to switch over to Windows 7 pretty much instantaneously. Check it out in the gallery below and you can expect a more in-depth look from us later on during the currently ongoing Computex 2011 trade show.

Update: Calling this a dual-boot tablet may have been a little ambitious, as it's running the Bluestacks virtualization software, which turns Android into a Windows app, rather than allowing true dual-booting capabilities.

Paid Online Surveys ? Easy Money

Hundreds of Internet users these days are subscribing to paid survey websites. Many of these are also making a few dollars on hand each week or month. Paid survey is now big business and is getting bigger every day. So why would a company pay this money to the Internet? Obviously they are getting money from somewhere. Paid Survey website owners are certainly not charity. So how do these owners pay site your staff, pay site members and still make a good profit. We will try to demystify the mystery surrounding these sites business.Paid Survey are mainly of two types of paid surveys. 1. Paid survey database site 2. The actual rate of payment site. The first survey in itself does not conduct surveys. They are simply directories of paid survey sites. Most of them have links that when clicked, the user takes you to the real survey paid from a different site. They make money in two ways: first they are paid to keep the reference and links to the real owners of payment and in second site survey some of them charge a fee for access to their directories. So if you are paying to register these directories, remember that they will not pay anything. Just help him find and navigate to the actual study sites payment. Ideally, if you are a new Poll workers are paid then you should start with the search paid survey sites on their own through a search engine or register for a free pay site directory. The actual survey paid survey sites host surveys on various topics.

They could be conducting a study on newly launched product promotion or advertising. Most of the time the surveys were carried out by any manufacturing or service. They often want to know customer preferences and behavior. The paid site survey work done for them and get paid in return. Some site owners also help consumer companies in the data analysis and statistical reporting. Some of the benefits go to the pollsters. Some owners of questionable site survey to transmit contact information of members of other companies. These companies then mail the promotion of their products. This is one of the channels through which the spam reaches your mailbox. Well known paid survey sites also make money by advertising other products or services. Quiet, a few paid survey sites, these days charge a small fee for the incorporation of new members to the site to participate in surveys. This also adds to their revenues.All above ensures that both paid survey sites and pay sites real Inquiry thrive in the wonderland of Internet.I have a blog and Web site helps people to choose between paying survey know many companies. Please visit many blogs for more information on online payment sources.

Patriot Act Extension Came Down To The Wire

Congress scrambled to renew three controversial provisions of the anti-terror Patriot Act that otherwise would have expired at midnight Thursday.

Minutes before that deadline, President Obama was awakened in France; there he ordered an automated signing into law of the four-year extension that lawmakers approved.

Things came right down to the deadline thanks largely to the stubborn resistance of one man: freshman Republican Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky.

Paul was not the only senator with grave misgivings about the Patriot Act deal worked out by Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and House Speaker John Boehner.

Rather than making its three expiring provisions permanent, as many Republicans would have it, they agreed to extend them another four years but no amendments would be allowed.

That did not sit well with various senators from both parties, but the only one who actually dared to filibuster the deal was the junior senator from Kentucky.

"Do we fear terrorism so much that we will not have debate," asked Sen. Paul. "Do we fear terrorism so much that we throw out our Constitution, and are we unwilling and afraid to debate our Constitution?"

It was day two of Paul's filibuster, and the majority leader's patience was reaching its limit:

"Let me take a moment to set the record straight." Reid began.

He had agreed to allow half a dozen amendments, most of them authored by Paul. They were aimed at those three expiring provisions: one allowing roving wiretaps, another authorizing the surveillance of so-called "lone wolf" terrorism suspects and a third letting courts order the collection of peoples' private information, if they're suspected of having ties to terrorism.

But Reid said Paul wanted still one more amendment. "The reason, is that he is fighting for an amendment to protect the right ? not of average citizens, but of terrorists ? to cover up their gun purchases," Reid said.

That hit a nerve with Paul, who called Reid's charge "a scurrilous accusation."

"I've been accused of wanting to allow terrorists to have weapons to attack America," Paul said. "To be attacked of such a belief, when I'm here to discuss and debate the constitutionality of the Patriot Act is offensive. I find it personally insulting."

The amendment Paul wanted a vote on would have set the legal bar considerably higher for searching gun registration and sales records.

"They are petrified to vote on issues of guns because they know that a lot of people in America favor the second amendment, own guns, and want to protect the right to own guns, and the right to have those records not sifted through by the government," Paul said.

But the majority leader cast Paul as the one endangering peoples' security ? he read from a letter from the national director of intelligence saying there should not be a moment's interruption of the provisions set to expire at midnight Thursday.

"That expiration date is extremely important, and if he thinks that's going to be a badge of courage on his side to have held this up for a few hours, he's made a mistake," Reid said. "It will set this program back significantly, and that's too bad. The clock is ticking; the ball is in his court."

Minority leader and fellow Kentuckian Mitch McConnell tried turning up the heat on Paul in a floor speech: "Now is not the time to surrender the tools authorized by this act, or to make them more difficult to use."

Paul responded with e-mails to supporters urging them to tell the Republican leader to stop blocking his amendments. It seemed to work. By late afternoon, a backroom deal had been cut. Paul would be allowed his amendments after all, including the one on guns.

"It took me three days of sitting down here filibustering, but I'm gonna get two amendment votes," Paul said. "I am very happy and I am pleased that we came together to do that."

And there were conciliatory words from the majority leader.

"Even though the senator from Kentucky, Sen. Paul and I have had some differences, what we've done on this legislation has at least helped us understand each other, which I appreciate very much," Reid said.

Later, in a brief interview, Paul sounded equally magnanimous.

"It's hard to dislike Sen. Reid. I mean, really, in person, it is very hard," Paul said.

Both of Paul's amendments lost by wide margins. The four-year extension of the expiring provisions then passed the Senate 72-23. The House too passed it in short order and sent it on to the president.

Competent Self Care Is Critical Care For ... - Allan Besselink

The United States, owners of what is considered by many Americans (and Congressional leaders alike) to be the ?greatest health care system in the world?, spends 50 percent more on health care than any other country in the world. In 2006, US health care expenditure was over $7,000 per person. Expenditures have also tripled since 1990. Ouch.

So what does this money get us? How about an international ranking of just 15th in preventable death, 24th in life expectancy, and 28th in infant mortality. Money well spent?

More than 75% of US health care spending is on people with highly preventable chronic medical conditions such as heart disease, cancer, stroke, chronic lower respiratory diseases, Alzheimer?s disease, and diabetes. And to make matters worse, 7 of 10 deaths among Americans each year are from these same chronic conditions.

But it gets even worse. We have Generations X and Z on deck, ready to push the envelope of both chronic medical conditions and health economics. Fortunately, we have a solution ? if only we choose to use it.

It is a topic that is in the news on a regular basis: the impending health care demands (and costs) of Generation X, otherwise known as the Baby Boomer generation. Members of this generation were born between 1946 and 1964 per the United States Census Bureau. That makes these people 57 to 65 years old in 2011.

Let?s look beyond just chronic medical conditions. As it stands right now, 57% of adults are overweight, with 1 in 3 having a body mass index of 30 - a level that is considered obese. Back pain, one of the most common problems afflicting Americans, accounts for more that $90 billion annually in health-care expenses. If we add in arthritis, the most common cause of disability, we would be including the 19 million Americans reporting activity limitations secondary to it, and the costs associated with it.

But while you are pondering these numbers, beware of Generation Z ? those born between the years of 1991 to 2010. That makes these people 1 to 20 years old in 2011. Almost 1 in 5 youth between the ages of 6 and 19 is obese. This number has tripled since 1980. Another 15 percent are considered to be at risk of becoming overweight. Overweight adolescents have a 70 percent chance of becoming overweight or obese adults. This increases to 80 percent if one or more parents is overweight or obese. Those in Generation Z exhibit an overall decrease in physical activity, and display generally poor nutritional habits as well. If you don?t believe me, try viewing an episode of ?Jamie Oliver?s Food Revolution? sometime.

You now have a generation of children that are the first to have a life expectancy shorter than their parents. If this isn?t a problem now, it will be in about 20 years. Generation Z is primed and ready for chronic medical conditions to a level that we have yet to experience in this country. If Generation X and their health care costs due to chronic disease don?t take down the country?s economy, Generation Z surely will.

Unless we do something. Now.

The good news in the discussion on chronic medical conditions is that they are either preventable or readily addressed through self care strategies. Four health risk factors - lack of physical activity, poor nutrition, tobacco use, and excessive alcohol consumption - are responsible for much of the illness, suffering, and early death related to chronic diseases. These health risk factors are all readily addressed via self care strategies.

Competent self care is the solution. Competent self care involves a client-centered approach that is both science- and evidence-based and utilizes the latest knowledge that has evolved out of the medical and sports science research.

It is imperative that health care becomes more about ?health? than about ?care?. Competent self care is critical care for Generations X and Z. The sooner we realize this, and put the mechanisms in place to address this effectively, the greater hope we have that Generation X and beyond may actually live longer and have fewer health care costs in the process.

But if we don?t, then we will continue to throw progressively greater amounts of money into a ?system? that underachieves in the process.

Book Review: Through Western Eyes | Orthodox-Reformed Bridge

Through Western Eyes: Eastern Orthodoxy: A Reformed Perspective By Robert Letham

The growing awareness of Eastern Orthodoxy among Evangelicals has resulted in a number of books giving an overview of Eastern Orthodoxy.? Among them is Robert Letham?s Through Western Eyes (2007).? Pastor Letham is a minister of the Orthodox Presbyterian Church and has taught at several well known Reformed seminaries.

Through Western Eyes has three main sections.? The first consists of a detailed historical survey of the doctrinal debates in the early Church.? The second deals with specific topics like icons, Scripture and Tradition, Church and sacraments, the Trinity, and salvation.? In the third part Letham presents his findings: where Orthodox and Reformed Christians are in agreement, where they misunderstand each other, and where they have genuine differences.? For readers unfamiliar with Orthodoxy there is a detailed chronology in the front and a glossary in the back.

Pastor Letham is to be commended for his open minded and charitable treatment of Orthodoxy.? One particular strength of the book is his willingness to learn from the Orthodox.? This can be seen in his efforts to clear up misunderstandings and his willingness to criticize his fellow Protestants as well the Orthodox.? The purpose of this review is not so much to list the strong and weak points of the book as to initiate an engaged discussion between Orthodoxy and the Reformed tradition.

Icons.? Pastor Letham points out that it is not fair for Reformed Christians to accuse Orthodox Christians of idolatry in their use of icons (p. 279).? He attempts to find common ground with Orthodoxy on the issue of icons.? He makes the surprising claim: ?Reformed theology believes in icons too!? (p. 160).? He can say that because for Reformed Christians all of creation is iconic revealing the glory of God.

If icons are windows to draw us to God, opened books to lead us to heaven, so too is the entire order of creation ? the beauty of the hills, the colours of the grass, sea and sky, the trees and plants, the changing of the seasons (p. 161).

For the Reformed Christian this understanding leads to a this-worldly appreciation of beauty rather than religious art that focuses on angels and demons.? This attitude is most evident in Reformed worship in churches with four bare walls and services centered on the sermon.? This bifurcation of the earthly from the heavenly is highly problematic.? It introduces an implicit Nestorianism into Reformed worship, i.e., splitting off the earthly from the heavenly instead of the joining of the two.? Biblical worship as portrayed in the Old Testament was lavish in its use of precious metal and stones, carvings, tapestry interwoven with images of angels, beautiful vestments, and sweet smelling incense (Exodus 25-30).? Orthodoxy?s ornate worship is essentially a continuation of Old Testament worship and an affirmation of the Incarnation of the Word of God.? Letham does not tell us why all this was abandoned with the Reformation.? It is as if the spiritual can only be expressed by verbal means, and material means are now inappropriate for expressing spiritual truths.? As for Pastor Letham?s implying that the focus of Orthodox religious art being other worldly, I would point out that an important part of Orthodox worship is the celebration of God?s salvific acts in human history.? Sadly, most Reformed Christians have never done serious reading on the Orthodox understanding of icons. I hope to address this misunderstanding in an article: ?Calvin vs. the Icon? that will be posted in the near future.

Pastor Letham does criticize Orthodoxy?s use of icons.? He notes that Christ?s visible humanity is depicted in icons but not his divinity; this separation of the two natures is the error of Nestorian Christology (p. 158).? In response, I would point out that many icons of Christ have the Greek phrase ?ho on? (He Who Is); this points to Christ?s divine nature.? In this way icons of Christ present both his divine and his human natures which is good Chalcedonian Christology.

Worship. Pastor Letham compliments Eastern Orthodoxy for its emphasis on the Trinity in its worship and laments the increasing tendency towards a ?free-wheeling liturgical anarchy, that bespeaks and foreshadows doctrinal confusion of the highest order? (p. 277).? Letham also does a good job of summarizing the Orthodox understanding of the sacraments.? He notes: ?In the sacraments Christ takes material things and makes them a vehicle for the Spirit.? (p. 209).? This is a very Orthodox statement!

Pastor Letham wrote that where preaching has been the driving force of Reformed churches, Orthodoxy gives a central role the visual in Orthodox worship (p. 287).? He defends the prominence of preaching on the ground that ?God?s own nature is linguistic? (p. 217).? He writes:

In the Word read and proclaimed, God addresses us personally.? We cannot see him but we can hear him (p. 220).

However, Orthodox worship is not so much visual as Letham claims but incarnational (I John 1:1).? It is holistic engaging our whole being in worship.? Many people are drawn to Orthodox worship because it engages the whole person.? In Christian worship we are called to love God not with our intellect alone but with all our heart, soul, mind, and, strength! (Mark 12:30)

Letham overlooked Paul?s teaching of the Church as the body of Christ (cf. I Corinthians 12, Ephesians 4).? This teaching means that the Incarnation is more than a historical event in the past but a reality that extends into the present through the Church.? People who are looking for God will find God in the mysteries of the Church.? That is why Orthodox evangelism often echoes Philip?s words to Nathaniel: Come and see!? (John 1:46)

Worship is one area where Reformed and Orthodox Christians can learn from each other.? Reformed Christians have a point when they complain about the paucity of preaching in Orthodox churches.? I would say that the diminished role of the sermon in the Orthodox Liturgy today points to a decline from Orthodoxy?s rich heritage of biblical preaching.? Orthodox priests can learn from their Reformed colleagues about expository preaching while remaining rooted in Orthodoxy?s rich patristic and liturgical traditions.

On the other hand, Reformed pastors can learn from Orthodoxy?s holistic approach to worship.? Orthodoxy?s use of incense, vestments, and icons can be traced to the Old Testament pattern of worship.? Reformed pastors need to take seriously that claim and examine whether or not the Reformed pattern of worship: four bare walls and a sermon are rooted in the historic Christian faith.? Also, Reformed pastors need to reassess the Reformed understanding of the Lord?s Supper against the early Church?s celebration of the Eucharist.

Sacraments.? Pastor Letham objects to Orthodox confusing the Reformed understanding of the real presence in the Lord?s Supper with the Zwinglian symbolic understanding (p. 280).? He points out that the Westminster Confession teaches that a real spiritual feeding takes place in the Lord?s Supper.? As a former Calvinist who followed Mercersburg Theology I agree.? Calvin, like the early Church Fathers, decried any purely symbolic understanding of the Lord?s Supper and insisted that communion was essential to the Christian life.? Most Protestant would be shocked to learn that Calvin?s sacramental theology is much closer to Orthodoxy than it is to modern Evangelicalism (Institutes 4.17.5).? However, it should be noted that Calvin?s disavowal of a localized real presence in the Eucharist (see Institutes 4.17.19 and 4.17.39) raises concerns as to whether Reformed Christians really do share the same understanding as the early Church.

Too many Reformed pastors, elders and laymen have been far too narrow in understanding of their own theological history. They are trapped in a late, austere rationalistic Puritanism that Calvin would not recognize.? Mercersburg Theology is a good place for these men to deepen their understanding of church history and Calvin?s Institutes.? I recommend Keith Mathison?s Given For You (2002) and Jonathan Bonomo?s Incarnation and Sacrament (2010) as two good starting places.

Salvation.? Pastor Letham notes that Western Christianity?s understanding of salvation has a strong forensic bias which results in an emphasis on the doctrines of atonement and justification (p. 274).? Letham correctly notes that the Orthodox understanding of salvation cannot be equated with the Roman Catholic legalistic understanding of salvation.? He does a masterful job of citing patristic texts that teach that our salvation does not result from our works but the grace of God (pp. 250-251).? Letham notes that there is a strong similarity in the way the Orthodox saint Symeon the New Theologian and the Westminster Confession understand the assurance of salvation (p. 263).

He compliments Eastern Orthodoxy for its participatory understanding of salvation which is based on the biblical teaching of union in Christ (pp. 274-275).? Reformed exegetes need to give fuller attention to the implications of the entire range of biblical teachings on salvation, including the passages on union with Christ, e.g., John 15:5-6, Romans 6:1-8, Ephesians 1:13.? Forgiveness of sins leads to a restored relationship with God, man enjoying a union with Christ like that Jesus has with the Father (John 17:21).? I would like to add that Letham should have mentioned that John Calvin stressed the ?mystical union? in Christ in his Institutes (see 3.2.24; 3.11.8-10; 4.17.10-12).? Letham is of the opinion that a broad exegetical approach to Scripture can accommodate both the Western forensic and the Eastern participatory understandings of salvation (p. 263).

Many Reformed Christians stumble when they hear of the Orthodox doctrine of theosis.? Pastor Letham does a good job of pointing out that while there is a forensic component to our salvation, salvation in Christ also entails our adoption and union with God.? He writes:

Our destiny as Christians is to share the glory of God.? ?.? Glory is what belongs distinctively and peculiarly to God.? We are called to partake of what God is.? This is more than mere fellowship.? Fellowship entails intimate interaction but no participation in the nature of the one with whom such interaction takes place (p. 257).

He notes that this understanding of union with God does not entail the blurring of the creator- creature distinction (p. 256).

Letham identifies predestination and its premise of monergism as ?the major point of difference? between Orthodoxy and Reformed Christianity (p. 265).? Where Reformed theology is monergistic (man is passive responding to God?s gracious initiative), Orthodoxy is synergistic (both man and God are active in achieving full fellowship) (p. 245).? Orthodoxy sees fallen man as still a rational creature in God?s image and likeness with a free will/agency.? Yet God?s grace and initiative are both greeter and a priori to man?s response.? Thus, grace and good works go together and are in no way opposed to each other.? This synergy of actions is taught not only throughout Scripture but comprise the teachings of the Apostles and their successors, the Church Fathers.

Letham takes pain to point out that God does not compel people to come to Christ but that the Holy Spirit makes us willing through the changing of the heart (p. 245).? Pastor Letham claims that the Orthodox have misunderstood the Reformed position on predestination (p. 264-267).? It is problematic that Letham did not discuss the Confession of Dositheus which is Orthodoxy?s definitive response to Reformed doctrine.? Any serious Reformed-Orthodox discussion about predestination need to take this into account.

The differences over salvation between Reformed Christianity and Orthodoxy is largely due to their belonging to different patristic traditions.? The Protestant Reformation is rooted in Augustine?s soteriological paradigm which teaches that divine grace precedes human response.? While many Eastern Orthodox Christians have voiced their dislike for Augustine, there has yet to be an official condemnation by Orthodox hierarchs of Augustine?s teaching on divine grace.? I propose that if Reformed Christians can show their understanding of monergism and predestination to be consistent with the patristic consensus then the possibility of rapprochement with Orthodoxy is possible.? However, if the Reformed doctrine of salvation reflect the novel premises of medieval Catholic soteriology then the Reformed doctrines of predestination and monergism must be considered doctrinal innovations.

Scripture and Tradition.? Orthodoxy and Protestants have often clashed over the question of the precedence of Scripture and the Church.? Letham strikes a balance between two exaggerated positions: the notion that the Bible came into existence apart from the church (held by many Reformed Christians) versus the notion that the Church created the Bible (held by many Orthodox) (p. 189).? He notes that the Holy Spirit originated both the Church and Scripture (p. 189).? I wholeheartedly agree with him on this.

Pastor Letham notes that for Orthodox Christians Scripture and Tradition comprise one integral whole (p. 177).? He does a good job of presenting the Orthodox understanding of Tradition:

Tradition is not merely the aggregate of the dogmas, rites and institutions of the church.? It is dynamic and living, unchanging and constant, the revelation of the Holy Spirit in the church (p. 177).

He points out that sola scriptura does not mean the Bible as the exclusive source for theology (pp. 196-197).? Letham notes that the Reformed tradition does not eschew the early Church Fathers and councils.? The Reformers insisted that their teachings were in harmony with the early Church but they also insisted that Scripture had priority over all other sources.? This makes Calvinism much closer to Orthodoxy than Protestant Fundamentalism.

One important area where the two sides differ is the Old Testament.? Where Protestantism relies on the Hebrew Masoretic text, Orthodoxy relies on the Greek Septuagint text which contains the so-called apocryphal writings.? Letham issues a challenge to Orthodox scholars urging them to answer R. Beckwith?s The Old Testament Canon of the New Testament Church, especially with respect to the Alexandrian (Greek) canon (pp. 182-183).? This points to another major difference, the Orthodox understanding of Scripture has never been significantly impacted? by the higher critical method as Protestantism.? If I have a criticism of Letham, it would be that he relies too much on T.G. Stylianopoulos as representative of the Orthodox response to the higher critical method.? I would point out that in Orthodoxy doctrine is not driven by academic research, but by the traditioning process and is grounded in the mystical life of the Orthodox Church.

Pastor Letham notes that where the West has a tendency to view theology as a rational activity, in the East theology is inseparable from piety (p. 191).? Because of this, he is concerned that Orthodoxy?s preference for mystical contemplation undermines fides quarens intellectum (faith seeking understanding).? It should be noted that fides quarens intellectum was articulated by Anselm of Canterbury (1033-1109) and represents the theological method of medieval scholasticism, not the early Church.? Orthodoxy?s theological method is not anti-intellectual but mystical, and grounded in the early Church.? It is best summed up in Evagrius of Ponticus? (c. 346-399) saying: ?If you are a theologian, you will pray truly.? And if you pray truly, you are a theologian.?

Trinity.? Pastor Letham notes that the strongest agreements between the Reformed and Orthodox traditions can be found with respect to the doctrines of the Trinity and Christology (p. 277).? He admires Orthodoxy?s emphasis on God as Trinity and laments that many Protestants have come to regard the doctrine of the Trinity as an ?arcane mathematical riddle? (pp. 271-272).

Pastor Letham sees weakness in the way both sides understand the Trinity.? He notes that Western Christianity suffers from a tendency towards modalism and the prevalence of unitarian language in Western hymnology.? Letham calls into question Orthodoxy?s assertion that God is unknowable in his essence but knowable in his energies.? He claims that making this distinction ?drives a wedge? between the inner life of God and his saving activity in history, i.e., between the immanent Trinity and the economic Trinity (pp. 233-234).? Letham criticizes the distinction claiming that it leads to a ?profound agnosticism? and ?defies rational discourse? (p. 237).

Letham traces the differences in the way Orthodox and Reformed understand the Trinity to the Filioque clause. He does a masterful job of surveying the theological issues surrounding the Filioque controversy.? To his credit Letham is aware of the ecclesial concerns of Orthodoxy (pp. 127-128), but he does not give the weight these concerns deserve.? For Orthodoxy the findings of the Ecumenical Councils constitute authoritative decisions binding upon all Christians.? Thus, the papacy?s unilateral insertion of the Filioque clause was an assertion of the Pope?s supreme teaching authority in violation of the conciliarity of the early Church.? It is striking that nowhere does Letham declare the insertion of the Filioque clause an invalid action, and nowhere does Letham call for the unamended version of the Niceno-Constantinopolitan Creed to be the normative version for Reformed theological texts and confessional statements.? It would enhance interactions between Orthodox and Reformed Christians if these steps were taken.? Doing so would also help Reformed churches move away from the influence of the Roman papacy and closer to the theological consensus of the early Church.

Let?s Dialogue!

I highly recommend Through Western Eyes for Reformed Christians who wish to learn about Eastern Orthodoxy.? In the past critiques of Orthodoxy by Reformed Christians have been marred by ignorance and prejudice.? Letham?s informed and sympathetic critique marks a major advance in the interaction between these two important Christian traditions.? Pastor Letham does not engage in cheap ecumenicism.? His goal is to facilitate a genuine encounter between two very different religious traditions in a way that will foster deeper understanding and appreciation of each other.? His book also makes a contribution to Orthodox-Reformed dialogues with the frank questions that he poses to Orthodox Christians and the charitable spirit with which he discusses Eastern Orthodoxy.

Letham closes Through Western Eyes with a frank admission that while there are areas of agreement between Orthodoxy and the Reformed tradition, there are also areas of significant disagreement which means that ?lasting agreement? between the two is not likely (p. 289).?

The Various Phases Of An ACL Physical Therapy

May 22, 2011 5:11 am admin Health and Fitness

The ligament which joins the tibia to the femur bone is known as anterior cruciate ligament or ACL. It is positioned diagonally in the center of both of these bones. This ligament provides support and enables the knee to rotate. According to the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons, close to a hundred thousand people each and every year must go through reconstruction surgery due to knee ligament tears which can be generally obtained while playing sports. Following an ACL surgery, individuals are recommended to undergo acl physical therapy to make the knee heal faster. Some people need to go through the therapy for four to six months to ensure that their knees and legs to function normally.

Soon after the surgery, the individual needs to go through a post operative rehabilitation. The patient will be instructed to see a physical therapist thrice a week. Right after eight weeks, the visits might be decreased to merely two times a week. For the first couple of weeks, you will do a few strengthening exercises. This will help to reduce inflammation at the same time improve your knee muscles. You have to continue doing these routines on days that you do not visit your therapist. The exercises should be done for thirty minutes to an hour each day.

Possibly after two months of therapy, once your knee has already healed, your physical therapist can give you a more intense knee conditioning exercises. At this time of your acl physical therapy, you may be recommended to lift weights and perform some cardio workouts such as on a treadmill or bike. In addition, you?ll be given new routines that are designed to bring back the stability and balance of your knee. You may even have the option to get this done in fitness or health clubs instead of going to a medical therapy facility.

The rest of the two to three months of your rehabilitation will include balance, stability and strength exercises that will examine the full restoration of your injured knee. One of many exercises done at this point of your therapy is called the box jump. You?ll be asked to jump sideways onto a wooden box. The box is going to be placed beside you. When you have jumped on to the box, you?ll then jump once more landing on the other side of the box, with both your feet landing together. At some point, if you have regained the complete functioning of your knee, you?ll be able to jump on the other side of the box easily.

You could feel some discomfort and pain throughout these phases of your acl physical therapy. This is normal because your knees as well as the muscles around it are still on the process of healing. This may take some time therefore a lot of patience is required.

Google enters the personal finance lead gen biz ? Covestor

Smarter Investing

We?ve all experienced the stress and frustration associated with comparing financial products such as mortgages or credit cards. Often information is presented in an incomplete or otherwise opaque manner, and comparison between firms and offers is difficult. Google has taken up the challenge of simplifying the process by creating a new service,?Google Advisor, that makes it easy for users to compare products side by side.

From The Official Google Blog:

Financial decisions may be some of the most difficult decisions we face?whether it?s finding the right credit card or understanding the impact of paying an extra point on a mortgage. And these days, it seems like we have more financial options than ever.

To help solve these problems, we began testing a mortgage comparison tool in?2009 and have added other financial products such as credit cards, CDs, checking, and savings accounts. Today, we?re rolling these tools into one place:?Google Advisor, a site designed to help you quickly find relevant financial products from many providers and compare them side-by-side. Google Advisor is currently only available in the U.S.

This lucrative market for personal finance lead generation has the current large players Bankrate (bought by private equity fund Apax in 2009, previously publicly traded) and QuinStreet (Nasdaq: QNST). They can?t be pleased about this latest Google service, but consumers will likely benefit eventually from big G?s price-lowering aggregation power.

You can count on soon seeing Google Advisor results right at the top of searches for ?mortgage?, ?savings rates? and ?credit cards?, which demonstrate the user?s purchasing intent in an extremely valuable manner. Google is apparently not satisfied taking a cut of the SEM advertising here ? they want the business owned by the top organic search results as well.

Mashable?s Ben Parr adds:

At the moment, mortgages are treated differently than the other financial categories. While Google doesn?t get paid if you find a credit card, CD, checking account or savings account through the search giant, it does make money whenever you contact a mortgage lender. You will noticed that mortgages have ?sponsored results? while other financial instruments simply have ?matching results.? Sponsored results could to other financial products expand over time.

Oh yes they could.

What You Should Know About Safe Oral Sex | Pray Over Dating for ...

There are some people who imagine that performing oral sex is much safer than anal or vaginal sex. They think that the chances of them being infected with HIV or STD are nonexistent. This article will help you to learn about safe oral sex.

What are the risks of engaging in oral sex?

You can easily communicate HIV, particularly if you have cuts in your mouth, e.g. from piercings, dental operations, or accidental cuts or punctures. HIV can be found in body fluids such as blood, vaginal fluids, semen, and breast milk. But wounds are not necessary to transmit HIV, since it can be propagated through the mucous membranes. Mucous membranes are found in your mouth, nose, anus, and vagina.

There is still some disputation concerning HIV being passed on orally, but it is better not to risk it, above all if you know that your partner is diagnosed with this disease.

What STDs can be transmitted?

* Herpes can be transferred from the infected party to their partners through skin contact. Even if you use a condom, it does not lower the risk of contamination.

* Chlamydia poses a greater hazard of infection if you perform fellatio compared to cunnilingus.

* Syphilis is one sexually transmitted disease that is easily transmitted thru oral sex. During the first few stages, you might not experience any symptoms, but as time progresses it is hard to disregard the sores.

* You can also get infected with Hepatitis A and B through oral sex. Having vaccinations might forestall infection.

What protections or special measures ought you take if you want to perform oral sex with your partner?

* Do not engage in oral (or any) sex if you know that your partner is diagnosed with any STD.

* Do not engage in any sexual relations with those you do not know ? no one night stands. There is a great risk that you will be infected with any diseases he or she might have.

* Do not let any semen or vaginal fluids into your mouth as they might carry an infectious disease.

* Put on a condom, adding some lubricants so that it will not break. Just make sure that the lubricant you are using is water-based. The risk of condom breakage is high with the oil-based.

* Use polyurethane condoms if you are hypersensitive to latex condoms, or your partner is.

* Avoid using condoms that might cause your mouth and tongue to numb. Some condoms with spermicides do.

* Abstinence is the best preventive measure if you want to be protected from contamination. Your health is much more valuable than anything else. Once your health is being compromised you will suffer from it for the rest of your life.

Except for the risks of unintended pregnancy, oral sex has all the risks of intercourse. There is no problem if everybody practiced everlasting monogamy, but because people are not perfect, there is no such thing as perfectly safe oral sex. Nevertheless, you can surely make it safer if you follow the suggestions here.

When Grandparents Are a Grand Mirage | Alphamom

May16

by Amalah

Dear Amy,

My husband and I have a wonderful 4 year old son who is delightful, curious and full of energy.

A week after he was born, my in-laws announced they were selling their centrally located home and moving around the corner from my sister-in-law and her 2 children. The new home is 90 minutes to 2 hours from any airport and a six to seven hour drive from our house. They spend heaps of time with their other grandchildren.

With us, it is trips every six months for 36 hours that are often canceled the day before or even the morning of because they aren?t ?feeling well.? Including the day before his birthday party after they promised to come. While they are aging, they don?t appear to be in frail health.

They recently brought the whole clan to our hometown for a visit and to see us. Okay, really just to do touristy stuff and they stayed 30 miles from our house in a hotel and still expected us to show up for dinner.

Except for when they called 10 minutes after I picked up my son from school to say, oops, no dinner tonight. We?re too tired. And then on the last day, they declined to watch him to a little recital with his cousins, opting instead to have drinks in the hotel bar before dinner.

Now I know I can?t change them. The lack of a relationship with this grandson is their loss.

But how do I cushion the blow to a 4 year old? We?ve tried not telling him when they are planning a visit but they tell him even after we?ve asked them not to. He ends up in tears routinely because they don?t honor their agreements. Unfortunately, we don?t have another set of grandparents to shower him with attention. Is there a book out there ?Grandparents Who Don?t Show Up and Seem to Love Your Cousins More??

You?re absolutely right. It?s their loss. It?s not your job to change them, but yeah, it IS your job to protect your son from their?whatever this is. Flakiness? Cluelessness? General all-around jerkiness?

This, right here, just about broke my damn heart: We?ve tried not telling him when they are planning a visit but they tell him even after we?ve asked them not to. He ends up in tears routinely because they don?t honor their agreements.

Well, you know what, then? They?ve just lost their right to speak directly with your son. Sorry. That?s just?no. At this point, the pattern is clear and established enough for a good ol? fashioned confrontation-style phone call, the next time they make noises about visits or birthday parties or whatever. ?We?re really looking forward to it, but just FYI, we?re not telling Junior that you?re coming because frankly, we?re tired of being the ones to break his heart when you cancel at the last minute, as you?ve done the last (two, three, however many) times.?

*BUT BUT BUT INSERT A DOZEN ?VALID? EXCUSES FOR WHY DRINKS AT A HOTEL BAR WERE MORE IMPORTANT THAN A RECITAL AND/OR MYSTERIOUS HEALTH PROBLEMS ETC. ETC.*

?I understand that. But a four-year-old doesn?t.?

If you really can?t bring yourself to be all HAMMER OF THIS ENDS NOW yet, you probably WILL need to figure out how many more chances you plan to give them before you start?well, severing the relationship on your end, too. Because yes, yes, grandparents relationships are wonderful and important?when there IS a relationship in the first place, and when it?s not freaking bordering on emotionally abusive because said grandparents are tone-deaf to playing favorites and/or breaking promises.

Basically, how long do you hope to keep up what is, essentially, a charade for your son? Because he will figure it out at some point. And it might be easier on him if you simply remove all expectations entirely, and stop playing the your-grandparents-are-fun-and-awesome-and-special part on their behalf (?We?re going to see Grandma and Grandpa tonight, yaaay! Oh wait, there?s the phone, dammit.?)

It?d be one thing if you WERE dealing with something temporary ? my parents, for example, were not able to be the sort of grandparents they wanted for a long, long time, because of my dad?s very real health problems. They couldn?t visit us, our visits there were frequently canceled because of hospitalizations or a ?bad day? or cut short because someone had a cold that could really hurt my father, etc. But still, we kept up?I don?t know. Hope. The idea that Nana and PopPop would one day be able to take them places and be more involved and WERE, in fact, awesome people who loved them more than anything. My dad wasn?t ever able to recover and be all that, but it was not for lack of trying like hell. My mom, now, is ready and able to, so I?m glad we worked hard to keep up a semblance of a relationship even during the rough patches.

Your in-laws don?t get a pass like that. They frankly don?t sound like they deserve one.

I grew up with just one grandmother and she was IT, and she was AWFUL. And I figured it out that she was AWFUL at some point and liked my siblings better than me and yet wasn?t even all that nice to THEM either, if the mood struck her, and?yeah. It hurt. I think my parents did just about everything in their power to shield me from that hurt ? they never openly trash-talked her, or anything, but did make sure to keep my expectations low and my contact limited ? but it still stung. But I got over it. I was very quickly able to realize that it had NOTHING to do with me or my parents and everything to do with HER, and because I didn?t really hold any grand illusions about my grandmother?yeah. I was fine. Your son will be too, even if this situation never gets any better. Just?keep him out of the line of fire and emotional disappointment, as best you can.

And who knows, maybe if you (or more accurately, YOUR HUSBAND) have a come-to-Jesus moment with them and point out the pattern of broken promises and cancellations and start imposing some CONSEQUENCES (like refusing to hand over the phone to your son or ceasing with the invites or being busy YOURSELVES the next time they make noises about visits)?maybe, just maybe, they will figure out that they are missing more of their grandchild?s life than they realized and falling down on the grandparent job.

I just?wouldn?t count on it, honestly. But it will still be okay. Your son has YOU, and you guys are enough. There?s nothing to be gained by a ?relationship? with serial disappointers parading around as beloved, involved grandparents who aren?t earning that reputation.
