Talk outline needed.

 

I need a scan of the original talk outline for this Circuit Assembly main lecture from 1950. Anyone?

Standards

 Speculation has little to no place on this blog. We maintain an ethical standard that the controversialist blogs and boards lack. Speculation based on the lack of records falls into one of the major logic faults. I am open to well researched articles, footnoted to original sources, even if they reach a conclusion other than one I 've reached. Neither Jerome nor I are open to anything based on flawed, speculative research. 

So you left a comment here, and we disallowed it? Return to your research. Improve it. Make it solid. Try again. One of the professional societies to which I belong notes the following standards. I expect those who comment here, especially those who wish to present 'controversial' conclusions to abide by them:

The maintenance of high professional standards includes:

• being acquainted with best practice in the use and evaluation of evidence, in whatever form it takes;

• understanding and following copyright laws;

• being mindful of intellectual property issues;

• taking particular care when evidence is produced by those still living, when the anonymity of individuals is required and when research concerns those still living;

• observing the ethical and legal requirements of the repositories and collections being used;

• being aware of conservation issues concerning materials that historians and those working in the heritage sector use and produce;

• eschewing plagiarism, fabrication, falsification and deception in proposing, carrying out and reporting the results of research;

• following the most rigorous procedures for the citation of sources, including materials obtained from the internet;

• observing the law of the land, and not committing, planning or colluding in the deliberate breaking of the law.

Ives: Bible Doctrine of the Soul

 My Thanks for help acquiring this. As you will - I hope - remember, Ives was admired by Storrs who read his work. Ives is responsible for Storrs view of the Holy Spirit, which remains our view. This is an excellent find, and a real contribution to my research.

A Reminder



Because of the extremely bad behavior of someone posting as Jose, this blog is moderated. That means your comments will not appear until either Jerome or I review them. You need only post once. We'll see it. Jose? His posts will never appear here again.

W E Van Amburgh

Taken from a card listing Bethel hymns and prayer meeting texts for March 1917.


The original card pictured here was sold on eBay in December 2021 for over 700 dollars.

I am a bit reluctant ...

 My research fund is depleted. I need to raise $80.00 to purchase a Storrs relevant booklet. The seller will not come down on price. If you are inclined to help, please do so.

I no longer need donations to the research fund. Thank you for your help.

Update on the update of the ...

To answer several emails: My health is still precarious. I have an ultrasound of my kidneys and related areas on the 9th. I'm on some rather strong pain pills. I'm accomplishing very little meaningful work. If you wish to help I can use any newspaper or other reference to A. P. Adams. You may post them in comments or email them directly. There will be another surgery sometime next spring or summer.

In other news, I received an email notifying me of my election as a Fellow of the Royal Historical Society. This is useful in small ways. 

Best part of the last two weeks came from my youngest daughter: "I love you dad." Always nice to be reminded of what I already know.

We need a new car. That's in the distant future. And that's the news for today. ...

Oh, and I'm still open to submissions. Usual stuff: Times New Roman, fully justified, tab key for first line. Must be footnoted to original sources. Controversial is okay as long as your work is well supported. Submit via email: bruce . schulz @ aol . com
