In the "probably happened" theories this one is added to a long line of debunking books about the life of Jesus. According to Paul Verhoeven a Roman soldier got a basic instinct and raped Mary. Joseph said nothing of much significance. The Catholic League in America is up in arms. I wouldn't bother. An omnipotent God can look after Himself.Verhoeven can answer for himself. St. Paul will simply ask, "Where did you get such a preposterous idea from?". I'd far rather "let all grow until the harvest" than seeking to ban his book, or put him in jail or something.Fox News has the story.

This tutorial will show you how you can use displacement maps for placing many kinds of design onto many different surfaces. I'm going to map a 2d flag image using a photograph of some crumpled silk to create a realistic 3D flag; Step 1: Open your fabric and your flag image in photoshop. Apply gaussian blur to your fabric photograph (Filter > Blur > Gaussian Blur) and experiment with the radius to hide the detail of the fabric and keeping only the folds. Step 2: Save your fabric to a PSD file (File > Save as). I saved mine as silk.psd Step 3: Starts working on your flag photo. Apply the displacement map filter to your flag with your blurred fabric photo, so mine is the silk.psd file. (Filter > Distort > Displace) and I get this.. Step 4: Go back to you

I am all for pulling out of Iraq and bring the troops home. I feel like we are fighting in a war and risking the lives of thousands of Americans for the wrong reasons. Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton have both said that if they should be elected to the presidency, a large majority of the troops will be coming home. While I am completely for this withdrawal, I realize the problems that could arise from such an action. A withdrawal seems to signify an admission of defeat and leaving the unstable Iraqi government to fend of Al-Qaeda by itself. Many people tend to feel that should that be the case, it's Iraq's problem. Many also believe that a withdrawal would do a disjustice to the thousands of service men and women who lost their lives fighting for our country. To make a withdrawal possible

Deepti Naval – the realistic actress of 80s.Deepti Naval had followed the same path which was laid down by Shabana Azmi, Smita Patil, in the 70s in realistic films. She had acted in a number of films which showed the struggle of middle-class Indians in the late 70s and early 80s.In Saath-Saath, opposite Farooq Sheikh, she played the role of a student who had an affair with Farooq and when the time came for building their house they saw the crude reality of economic problems. Jagjit Singh composed brilliant music in the film, and the songs in the film like “yeh tera ghar yeh mera ghar”, “tumko dekha to yeh khayal aya”, etc., became landmark hits.Deepti Naval also acted very well in the film Katha, where Naseer and Farooq played tow different characters.

Since beginning my third trimester, I've been trying to prepare more and more for the baby. Having a written birth plan upon arrival at the hospital seems to be all the rage these days, but it just doesn't seem realistic to me...Here's my birth plan so far:Soothing music - check. Baby out within five minutes of first contraction - check. Nothing rips or tears - checkNo odd or embarrassing bodily fluids leave my body - check.Deep down, I just don't believe labor is an experience one can really plan out. Type A mothers-to-be must have invented the "necessity" of a birth plan (not that I haven't be labeled type A, but I have parameters). It seems to be out of my hands how this miraculous process will flow, and I'd hate to set myself up for failure or disappointment.Where does one even begin a

Unsecured loans are relatively easy to apply for but not always easy to get. It helps if you have a better understanding of how the system works so that when you apply with a lender, you can increase your chances of success.When you apply for unsecured loans or any other form of credit for that matter, you are asking someone to invest in you. They will want to get their money back and with interest which effectively acts as their profit on the deal. They are not looking just to give you the money and forget about it which sounds a silly thing to say but unfortunately, many lenders have had their fingers burned in the past by lending money to people who have not really thought long and hard enough about how they intend to repay the money. This has led to many people to default on their loan

Miss Linda makes up Originally uploaded by wili_hybrid Lately I’ve noticed that as technology has advanced, our ideas of beauty are changing.With the ever changing world of fashion and beauty it can be hard to keep up with the latest trends and beauty secrets. Many people can get attached to a particular style and embrace it as part of their identity. As time passes on and we evolve as a society, more ideas are presented and they can sometimes be as outlandish as ever. I was watching BET recently and came across a show called ‘Tears, Shears, & Beauty’ and saw a stylist giving a hair cut under water, amongst other things. As trends go, some ideas will stick and last while others do not. Some trends never go out of style, like the little black dress, and some should have never

There are lots of ways to make money online - but most of them require a big investment of either time and/or money.... and that just doesn't work so well for most people.That's why we were really excited when we learned more about Project Payday.

My brother sent me this assessment in an email the other day:  Your average 12-year-old boy is about 5 feet tall, weighs in the area of a buck-fifteen, and has developed little muscle mass. I am 21, approximately 6 feet tall, tip the scales at an even 180, and have a moderately athletic and muscular build. Judging on these statistics and what I assume would be a natural ferocity that would spring forth in a moment of physical danger, I estimate that I could beat up seven 12-year-olds before they overtook me. Of course, these would have to be the aforementioned average-sized 12-year-olds. Future linebackers, NBA players, and all Scandinavian children would throw off this equation. On the flip side, if these were some wimpy, four-square-playing, future-jockey 12-year-olds, I imagine the number would skyrocket to anywhere between 12 and 15. It's simple exponential math. This is also assuming that my opponents are smart enough to organize themselves into a circular attack ins

Writing about either liberals or conservatives as a group can lead to erroneous conclusions as both groups are actually composed of people with a number of political viewpoints lumped together under common labels. Conservatives have long had to deal with views ranging from social conservatism to libertarianism. Now that liberalism has made a “comeback,” the left will similarly have to deal with differing views ranging from throwbacks to big government liberalism to the more libertarian liberalism seen in those who are voting Democratic in response to the authoritarianism of the right. We are bound to see disparaging articles written by one group about the other, such as today’s article entitled The Gentry Liberals in The Los Angeles Times by Joel Kotkin and Fred Siegel. Kotkin and Siegel complain that liberalism is making a comeback but it “isn’t your father’s liberalism, the ideology that defended the interests and values of the middle and working c

Little Johnny drew a fly on the class grade book.It looked so realistic, that when Miss Baker saw the fly sitting on the notebook, she slammed it with a ruler.The fly didn’t fly away. So she slammed the book once again, again the fly didn’t fly away.This drove Miss Baker really mad, so she started to pound the book with the ruler and, as a result, the grade book became a bunch of torn sheets of paper.With the class laughing, she realized what had happened.Then Miss Baker called Little Johnny’s father to school."You see what your son did to our class grade book?" she said."That’s nothing." replied the father. "Last month, he drew a naked woman on a fence and for two weeks straight I was pulling splinters out of my dick."

This is a musey post, you've been warned. I haven't posted much in months, mainly because I've been ridiculously busy trying to pay my bills. Now my seasonal job is ending and I ditched my office gig because it turned out sitting at a computer all day wasn't so great for me. As a result, I've had a bit more time to not only think, but also to write. Some of the things I've been thinking about will follow in separate posts. First:I live in a cold city. I recently bought a car (part of the unhappy bill paying stressy time) because transportation to one of my jobs was entirely unavailable and a car was required as shelter, and for the other job public transportation was unreliable and would mean two hours commuting time everyday or more if the bus didn't show up as expected. I don't like to

During autumn there are many fog days. You don’t even need to weak up very early to catch some fog in a nearby forest. However, some of us got work to do and just can’t follow the weather all the time. Look at the difference between the 2 images below and you’ll see that foggy pictures can also be made in a digital studio. I toked a picture of “autumn fairy” that I really like but there was one problem: while it was taken, in the clear midday, some purple fringing appeared in the highlight areas. Before actually adding the fog, I made a few other adjustments: 1) Straighten the guiding lines (the bridge edge, the lamps) 2) Saturated the colors 3) Added contrast 4) Removed purple fringing by removing all blue color from the picture 5) Sharpen 6) Final crop Now let’s get to work at that fog. I made it in Adobe Photoshop CS3 and didn’t used any preset brushes. Here are some quick tips illustrated in the above picture: 1) Always remember to visual

I believe that of all writers, fantasy writers have the hardest job. This is of course excluding textbook writers. I also will not address young adult fiction here because I believe that young adult fantasy is an entirely different genre from regular fantasy simply because the rules on what works are tremendously different. Children and young adults are more likely to believe in things that would otherwise cause suspicion in adults. This is why children enjoy fairy tales and believe in Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, and the like. They don't question the reality of these things because, generally, children have no interest to. They live almost in a fantasy world of their own so long as they remain children. Adults, however, have seemingly lost their innocence and become aware of the world around them. For that reason, we generally don't find the same enjoyment on a literary level of fairy tales and the like. We don't believe in Santa or the Easter Bunny, or gnomes, elves, or

I caught a bit of flack for not including Eric Gordon on my preseason All-Big Ten team and quite frankly, I expected it. That’s what is so great about us, the IU fanbase: we’re passionate about our love for the program and the players. I wasn’t saying that Gordon won’t make the All-Big Ten team because it’s certainly a possibility that he will. I just didn’t agree with handing out preseason accolades to a player that hasn’t played a single minute of college basketball. So that got me thinking, what are realistic expectations for EJ? I’ve talked to people who think he can come in and average 18-20 points per game right off the bat. I’ve talked to others who think he could struggle early on adjusting to tougher defenses. The most optimistic of opinions I’ve heard on Gordon’s impact include comparisons to the impact Kevin Durant had at Texas last season. I bounced this question off of Dave Telep of Scout.com the other night

I used to be very into origami as a kid.

But I digress... Origami is Japanese for paper folding. Usually the models are folded with square pieces of paper, and are

Most of our clients dream for years about building the log & timber home of their dreams.  Whether as a refuge for their family, a place to get back to nature, a custom designed log & timber home is a reward for a lifetime of accomplishment.  But like everything else in life, cost is an inevitable consideration — the best way to avoid surprise and disappointment over the cost of your log & timber home is to establish a realistic turnkey budget at the outset of the conceptual design process. Our experience in designing and producing over 2,000 log & timber homes has taught us that the critical first step in the design process is to calculate an estimated turnkey budget.  Your turnkey budget is based on a number of factors: square footage of the home, complexity of the home, level of finishes in the home and geographical location being the most important factors influencing cost.  The impact of square footage in the home is fairly straightforward — the b

Guerilla Games showed off Killzone 2 A.I. gameplay in a PlayStation 3 demo at the Leipzig Games Convention 2007 a few days ago. In the demo a developer extensively talks about making the Killzone world more realistic and detailed. When Killzone 2 lead visual artist Roy Postma was asked about how the PS3 technology has helped them achieve this realism, he answered: “There are a lot of things that have changed and improved, but the part that affected us the most is the sheer amount of detail that’s possible now. This has had a tremendous impact on designing and building the game world–not just time-wise, but also in terms of creativity and technical engineering. In the High Definition era, there’s no hiding behind low resolutions or simplified 3D models. Not only do we have to create the best-looking designs we can, we have to make sure they work realistically as well.” Watch Killzone foes causing much destruction.

By Anders Bylund - MortgageLoan.com It's easy to get a home equity loan to turn your home into the mansion of your dreams. But how far should you go? Home equity loans are a great way to tailor your home to your individual needs. But you don't want to go crazy and spend such a huge fortune on your renovation that it becomes impossible to sell your own personal Godzilladome. Home improvement gone awry For some examples of home improvement gone wild, look to the stars. Sports and entertainment stars, to be specific. Back in his day, MC Hammer was a prime example of luxury gone awry. Solid gold bathroom sinks and a dishwasher installed in the master bedroom don't add as much to the value of a property as you might think. We never got to see what that mansion was actually worth, as it was repossessed in bankruptcy; but chances are good that it sold for far less than the $12 million purchase price. MC got hammered. These days, it's not unusual for a rookie point

I love the Dog and his family so much. I gain more respect for them every episode I watch. Mostly because they honestly try to help the people that they are hunting. They don't treat them as if they were scum. And it makes me really happy that they had this to say about Paris going back to jail:"I was going to offer to do the 45 days for her," he says. "And if anyone hates jail, my brother, it's Dog Chapman." The Chapmans spoke exclusively to TMZ about both having spent a little time in jail themselves - and they have just one question for all those outraged observers: "Have you ever spent even an hour in jail?"Beth Chapman has spent 20 years in the bail bonds business, and says she's never seen anyone who committed Paris' crime do that kind of jail time. Beth is quoted as saying, "That L.A. City Attorney [Rocky Delgadillo] is a joke. Three days in isolation for a person like Paris is more than enough.

They don't treat them as if they were scum. And it makes me really happy that they had this to say about Paris going back to jail:"I was going to offer to do the 45 days for her," he says. "And if anyone hates jail, my brother, it's Dog Chapman." The Chapmans spoke exclusively to TMZ about both having spent a little time in jail themselves - and they have just one question for all those outraged observers: "Have you ever spent even an hour in jail?"Beth Chapman has spent 20 years in the bail bonds business, and says she's never seen anyone who committed Paris' crime do that kind of jail time. Beth is quoted as saying, "That L.A. City Attorney [Rocky Delgadillo] is a joke. Three days in isolation for a person like Paris is more than enough.

  No news… must write article… must start some Arsenal discussion…! Plenty of us Gooners are throwing names into the hat of who we'd like to see coming in over the summer. Most of these players have been in the double figures of millions with Ribery, Malouda, Eto'o, Torres etc etc. Now lets be honest with each other - who here believes that Arsene will spend more than £10 million this summer? Even if he does sell the players we are apparently selling and even if he raises £50 million; he won't be spending much and we know it! He'll put the money to one side to help with the stadium repayments which will start in 2009 I believe (correct me if I'm wrong but I heard this from a guy that was working for one of the banks that gave the loan). After searching the good old Internet for some rumours which I think actually might hold some substance, below are a few transfer targets which I believe may be true: 1) Renato Augusto

Author: Eric A. Kelly We often receive applications where the client is requesting an unrealistic amount of money given the circumstances of their pending lawsuit.  The intent of this article is to establish realistic expectations with regards to the money that can be advanced on a pending lawsuit.  And we will address this issue in the framework of personal injury lawsuits, such as auto accidents and premises slip-n-fall cases. The two biggest issues which affect the value of your personal injury case, are the severity of your injuries and the defendant’s insurance policy limits.  Other factors include: liability (who was at fault), prior advances or liens on a case, and lost wages. To begin with, we list some actual examples of what past clients have received and their respective injuries: $65,000 – 3 Surgeries $10,000 – 3 Surgeries $8,500 – 2 Surgeries $7,500 – 1 Surgery $7,000 – 1 Surgery $5,000 – 1 Surgery $5,000 – Planned Surgery $3,000 – 1 Surgery $2,500 –

Lately, we have seen some attempts to calculate the net worth of some successfully blogging ventures. As I believe this is an interesting matter, I developed a more realistic and quantitative approach based on the well known Profit and Loss statement, that you can use in order to assess the real value of your blogging venture. I also built an online tool , named the Blog Valuation calculator, that you can use to actually implement my valuation model. First and foremost, I would like to clarify that although this is an empirical model (as it was validated using actual traffic figures published by John Chow, Everton Blair, Thilak and others), it doesn’t apply to all the Blogsphere. However, I have the feeling that my model is relevant to the big majority of the blogs.  How blogs make you money? For simplicity, I identified 7 possible revenue sources which can be leveraged by bloggers (I am sure that others exists, but these seem to apply to the m

The current trend is that people do not want artificial looking plastic surgery anymore. They look for a unique masterpiece of art, but many will get disappointed. Plastic surgery does not always life up to your expectations.

You have probably seen little chicks in the spring time at a farm or at a county fair and thought how wonderful it would be to have your own pet baby chicken. Of course the problem with this is that eventually they turn into full size chickens. There is a solution to this. Don’t worry, this does not involve giving your pet chicken a medication to prevent growth hormones or anything like that. Instead, it involves electricity! Now that I have you really worried about what we are going to do to this chicken, I will explain in greater detail how to go about having your own pet baby chicken. A company called Segatoys has created an extremely realistic robotic chick. It is slightly similar to an earlier story about Leonardo, the Muppet-Like Artificially Intelligent MIT robot, in that a casual observer would probably conclude that these baby chickens are actually alive. According to RemoveTheLabels.com, the product entitled “Sega Dream Chick,” is designed to simulate a 20 d

Today's Los Angeles Times editorial gets it right Son of No Child Left BehindThe education law -- up for reauthorization this year -- sets standards without looking at what's realistically achievable.CREDIT THE No Child Left Behind Act for this: It helped to reveal how little learning was going on in many classrooms, especially those with poor and minority students. As a result, educators are working to change that.This is no small accomplishment. Still, the law has not yet achieved its key goals: improvement in student scores and a narrowing of the achievement gap between white, middle-class children and their poor, minority counterparts.Flaws in the law have held back real educational progress and unfairly placed blame on public-school teachers for everything but the weather. The law has labeled many good schools as failures, which has led to a bipartisan uprising against legislation that once had true bipartisan support. While its basic tenets should remain intact, and even be st
