  • The current era is both exciting and confusing. A lot of changes are going on in China. There are both crises and opportunities. In this essay, I want to introduce many exciting recent developments of contemporary Christianity in China. All the developments show that the Chinese church is already taking deeper and deeper roots in China, and there are a lot of opportunities for the church to participate in culture and society. Many Chinese, both common people and intellectuals, have a renewed appreciation of the strength and relevance of the Christian faith, and many others are crying out for something that can satisfy their spiritual longing. Yes, indeed many people are searching for God, or perhaps it is God Himself who has been actively searching for the Chinese since very early times.

    ... but they write numerous books and articles about Christianity. These help a lot of Chinese un... of modern science (mathematics, astronomy) and technology (clocks) to China, together with s...

  • The Internet Age can lead to three possible scenarios for school libraries: status quo, change, or obsolescence. This study examines the ramifications of school library Web sites for the work done by Israeli school libraries and the services they provide. It is based on an analysis of the Internet sites of 78 school libraries in Israel, in-depth interviews with nine librarians in Israel, questionnaires completed by 22 librarians in the United States and other countries, and a review of literature on the subject. The findings of the study suggest that school libraries in Israel are in the status quo phase; however, there is a slight move toward the change scenario in which the library will continue to exist but will offer a different mix of services.

  • This year's Almanac starts off interestingly enough with some pop culture -- a dozen or so pages of Readers' Digest-style snippets in the Tastes and Trends section. One item reveals that employees now suffer from input overload -- from messages via phones, computers and other high-tech gizmos -- that is making us unfocused, impulsive, hasty and causing us to feel guilty and inadequate. The solution devised by some bosses for reducing distractions is to have their employees wear black baseball caps to signal their need for quiet, while others suggest a Do Not Disturb sign. I'm not sure how either method would stop the phones from ringing. Twenty-four pages in and we have an article on the daisy, America's most loved and misunderstood flower (according to the Almanac) with a bit of botan...

  • We know by tracking sales and through our website that the most interest in the almanac is in the Canadian and U.S. prairies, particularly in Manitoba," says [Jack Burnett], reached at the publication's head office in New Hampshire. "Sales there really stand out. Today, The Old Farmer's Almanac is still going strong and the book's editors continue to rely on [Robert B. Thomas]'s secret weather formula. However, this original recipe has been enhanced with state-of-the-art technology and modern scientific calculations. "Nowadays we use massive computer power to apply Thomas's original formula to Environment Canada's weather observations from the last 30 years," explains Burnett. "We look at how the weather played out in the past and infer how it will play out in the present. Basically, ...

  • But I knew that if I didn't do this job they'd send me back home. And this is much better than pitching hay. "There are 15 million stars in the sky as bright or brighter than Pluto, 15 million," Tombaugh told National Public Radio in 1995, two years before his death at age 90. "I had to pick one image out of the 15 million. That's like looking for a needle in a haystack, and that's what most people aren't willing to do. It's brutal.
