A fellow Chi Alpha group in Birmingham made the local news for an improbable reason. The title of the article, and I kid you not, is Chi Alpha Women Reject Makeover Spa for Camping Trip.
Evidently it was a slow news day in Alabama…
Incidentally, the article is really quite amusing. You should read it.
Paula and I won’t be discussing any baby names with anyone else until we introduce Baby Davis to the world.
Still, we are thinking about it.
That’s why namestatistics.com is so cool.
Incidentally, my name is the 188th most popular name in America, and Paula is the 95th most popular.
It’s been a while since I’ve posted anything totally random, so prepare to be entertained and informed:
1) Hollywood Meets the Pews: In the middle of it all was Jonathan Bock, a unique Hollywood publicist who keeps underlining one big statistic for studio leaders — week after week roughly five times as many people go to church as attend movies. In the past three years, his Grace Hill Media operation has helped promote 30 mainstream movies in religious media, from small films such as “A Walk to Remember” to epics such as “The Lord of the Rings.”
2) Monkeys Control Robotic Arm With Brain Implants (no, really): At first, Nicolelis said, the monkey kept moving the joystick, not realizing that her own brain was now solely in charge of the arm’s movements. Then, he said, an amazing thing happened.
“We’re looking, and she stops moving her arm,” he said, “but the cursor keeps playing the game and the robot arm is moving around.”
The animal was controlling the robot with its thoughts.
“We couldn’t speak. It was dead silence,” Nicolelis said. “No one wanted to verbalize what was happening. And she continued to do that for almost an hour.”
3) Martial Arts Expert Kills Two Raiders: Chinese martial arts expert was in custody yesterday after turning the tables on four burglars armed with knives, killing two of them and seriously wounding a third. The 28-year-old man, known as “the doctor” for his practice of acupuncture and traditional Chinese medicine, managed to seize one of the two knives carried by his assailants and saw off the entire group with the ferocity of his reaction. The moral of the story: you just never know whose house you’re breaking into…
Anyway, I found those fascinating. I hope you do, too.
One of Stanford’s more unfortunate traditions, Full Moon on the Quad, made news lately. The San Jose Mercury News wrote an article Stanford Students Hospitalized After ‘Full Moon’ Party.
lead paragraph: Four Stanford students were hospitalized with alcohol poisoning and three others were arrested on alcohol-related charges Thursday night during “Full Moon on the Quad” — a popular annual tradition in which seniors kiss consenting freshmen under the moonlight in what is billed as an alcohol-free party, Stanford said today.
Full Moon may be billed as an alcohol-free party, but that just means that many students get soused before showing up to tongue-wrestle.
Also, I noticed the Mercury News didn’t mention the ever-present nudity (the other moon on the quad that night)… sigh.
According the Stanford Daily, the university is growing concerned about Full Moon’s rowdiness: Full Moon’s Future Cloudy: “I have serious reservations about this event happening again,” said Assistant Dean and Director of Student Activities Nanci Howe. “But it is too early to say what the future of Full Moon is.”
By the way, while looking for other news stories on Full Moon I ran across Naranja Dorm’s gallery of Full Moon photos.
I was on campus today when all of a sudden the greenspace between Tresidder Union and White Plaza became a combat zone.
It was pretty cool.
The martial arts clubs were out recruiting by demonstrating their slickest moves.
I learned something important today–don’t mess with the Kempo Karate club at Stanford. They scare me.
The other groups were pretty impressive too, especially the Wushu Club.
Side note: people sometimes wonder why there are so many Christian organizations on your typical campus when they all agree on the basics. One might as well ask why there are so many martial arts organizations when they all focus on the same things (wearing funny clothes and fighting one another). We disagree on some techniques and a few philosophical premises. Differentiation is not a big deal, nor is it unique to religious organizations.
In Campus Collisions, Christianity Today tells the story of the recent troubles Christian organizations have had on campuses.
The lead paragraphs: THE HARVARD UNDERGRADUATE COUNCIL was working its way through a night of routine business last November when sophomore Jason Lurie, an officer of the Harvard Secular Society and a member of the council, dropped his bombshell. Did the Undergraduate Council realize, he asked, that it was approving grants to openly discriminatory organizations?
The organizations were the more than 50-year-old Harvard-Radcliffe Christian Fellowship (HRCF) and the much newer Harvard Asian Baptist Student Koinonia (ABSK). Clauses in their constitutions specified that their leaders—though not their members—must affirm an evangelical Christian statement of faith.
Really well-written article by a former InterVarsity staffer.
While I was preparing for this week’s message I came across this paragraph which I don’t think is going to make it in (doesn’t fit the flow), but it was so good that I feel compelled to share it with you:
Dorothy Sayers in her book Unpopular Opinions wrote:
Setting aside the scandal caused by His Messianic claims and His reputation as a political firebrand, only two accusations of personal depravity seem to have been brought against Jesus of Nazareth. First, that He was a Sabbath-breaker. Secondly, that He was “a gluttonous man and a winebibber, a friend of publicans and sinners” — or (to draw aside the veil of Elizabethan English that makes it sound so much more respectable) that He ate too heartily, drank too freely, and kept very disreputable company, including grafters of the lowest type and ladies who were no better than they should be. For nineteen and a half centuries, the Christian Churches have laboured, not without success, to remove this unfortunate impression made by their Lord and Master. They have hustled the Magdalens from the Communion-table, founded Total Abstinence Societies in the name of Him who made the water wine, and added improvements of their own, such as various bans and anathemas upon dancing and theatre-going. They have transferred the Sabbath from Saturday to Sunday, and, feeling that the original commandment “Thou shalt not work” was rather half-hearted, have added to it the new commandment, “Thou shalt not play.”
So there.
Now that I look at it again it may make it in after all… come and find out!
By the way, this week we’re continuing our “Jesus Is Asking You…” series of messages with the pivotal question Who Do You Say That I Am?
We just signed a lease on a new apartment! We’ll be moving this month–I’ll update our contact information soon.
For now, you can see some photos we took of the new pad.
It’s a great place–3 bedrooms, 2 bath, nice patio, and a fireplace! The best part is that the rent is the same as what we’re paying now. Woohoo!
I woke up early this morning and had this thought about daily Bible reading plans (namely, that it would be good to have one on our website).
So I added it on the top left of the screen. Just wanted to draw your attention to it.
I figured it would be pretty easy to set one up using PHP and MySQL, but I didn’t want to have to do a ton of data entry. Rather than reinventing the wheel, I searched for an online tabulation of Bible readings. I found a good one at Bible-reading.com.
I copied the plan into Word and used the search and replace features to format all the readings into 364 SQL INSERT statements (the number of readings in this plan). I added two more (thereby insuring that the database always has the data that I query for even in a leap year. Side note: I picked these somewhat at random and they’re probably not great choices, especially the Matthew reading).
Then I created some quick PHP code to take the current day of the year and look up the corresponding reading. I took the output and made it compatible with Bible Gateway and voila–an easy online Bible reading plan!
The code was very straightforward:
[php]
$date=getdate();
$day=$date[‘yday’];
$link = mysql_connect(*put your own info here*);
mysql_select_db(*your database*);
$sql=sprintf(“SELECT * FROM bible_reading WHERE day=’%d’ ”,$day);
$result=mysql_query($sql);
$line = mysql_fetch_array($result, MYSQL_ASSOC);
$passage=$line[“passage”];
mysql_free_result($result);
mysql_close($link);
$URL=sprintf(“http://bible.gospelcom.net/cgi-bin/bible?language=english&passage=%s&version=NIV”,urlencode($passage));
printf(“Bible Reading for %s”,date(‘l F jS’));
printf(“%s”,$URL,$passage);
[/php]
That’s pretty much it. It turned out to be a piece of cake!
The data entry would have been horrible–but I was able to avoid that hassle. If you need the SQL statements for any reason, you can use these:
[sql]
CREATE TABLE ‘bible_reading‘ (
‘day‘ int(11) NOT NULL default ‘0’,
‘passage‘ varchar(255) NOT NULL default ”,
PRIMARY KEY (‘day‘)
) TYPE=MyISAM;

One of the things that bound my college roomate Dave Rainey and I together was our mutual love of books–especially old books.
That’s why I’m so happy to announce David’s new website: Christian Book Finder.
It’s an annotated bibliography organized by subject–very useful! The only thing I don’t like about it is that he doesn’t link directly to online book vendors… that would make it easier to act on one of his recommendations!
By the way, Dave is well-qualified for this venture. In addition to being a lover of books, he has a Master of Library and Information Science. How cool is that?
