The NS classes for the Mac or UI classes for iOS may take some getting used to (Apple documentation is rich, but labrynth). <br /><br />If you decide to get into it use XCode 4 (Apple's IDE), which should be released by Apple soon. It is much better than the earlier implementations.<br /><br />Of course, you will need a Mac, but XCode is free.<br /><br />(posted from Win7)Rick Spurlockhttp://www.bereansonline.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6836835.post-83118111300717569792011-02-06T14:25:54.920-06:002011-02-06T14:25:54.920-06:00Ah.

We programmers are always having to clean up other people's messes.<br /><br />The funniest thing in my mind is how critics actually post. Reading a blog is a choice, but can be done without making it public. Posting adds to the public popularity of a blog. I laugh out loud when I read posters who are critical of others for being critical or "name calling" (or lashon hara). Don't they read what they write? <br /><br />It's as if everyone had a Nielsen box on their TV and those that scream the loudest about violence on TV driving up the ratings by watching violent shows so they can tell others how violent TV has become.<br /><br />I don't read blogs that I don't enjoy. I have learned to never post to public blogs of detractors - even in defense. <br /><br />Thanks Judah, for keeping us well-informed informed and entertained!

First off, the snaps at the blog readers that comment. Whether you draw a line through it or not, we get the point. You enjoy name calling as much as those you accuse of it (and sometimes we even get a nice smiley face as if that makes it all better).<br /><br />Secondly, I have read statements like these in several of the posts:<br /><br /><i>"I was taking a dump on one of our scholars."</i><br /><br /><i>"But let's see, maybe Gene will poop on this."</i><br /><br /><i>"As you can see, the more animated .gif images one has on his or her website, the more likely they are to be batpoop insane...</i><br /><br /><i>"I don't know whether you read the Talmud -- I know many Messianics poo-poo it"</i><br /><br /><i>"This sounds like absolutely bat-poop crazy stuff."</i><br /><br /><i>"Bilateral Ecclesiologists announce discovery of Messianic who gives a turd"</i><br /><br /><i>"The worldwide Bilateral Ecclesiology community met up over wine coolers today to celebrate their unprecedented discovery of a Messianic who gives a turd about Bilateral Ecclesiology."</i><br /><br />...and the list goes on.<br /><br />It sounds like you have a fascination with a particular bodily function. In my opinion it makes the writings sound juvenile. I would either cut them out completely or man up and use the word the everyone puts in the place of the other vulgarities anyway by understanding what word you are already implying.zayinnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6836835.post-44230598186278476912011-02-04T16:24:27.223-06:002011-02-04T16:24:27.223-06:00@James,

Affirming a "divine" Messiah, or Yeshua's "deity" is not quite the same thing as saying, "Yeshua is G-d" to some folks. In some cases it is merely weasling out of a corner, while in other cases it is a conviction of hermeneutics.
