Extractions: In rising to address this Court as one of its attorneys and counselors, regularly admitted at a great distance of time, I feel that an apology might well be expected where I shall perhaps be more likely to exhibit at once the infinities of age and the inexperience of youth, than to render those services to the individuals whose lives and liberties aren't the disposal of this Court which I would most earnestly desire to render. But as I am unwilling to employ one moment of the time of the Court in anything that regards my own personal situation, I shall reserve what few observations I may think necessary to offer as an apology till the close of my argument on the merits of the question.

Extractions: Artist: ADAMS, JOHN LUTHER Title: The Light That Fills The World Label: COLD BLUE MUSIC Format: CD Price: Catalog #: CB 0010 "These three works exist amid an undeniable esthetic spirit of the times the embracing of pre-compositional principles and structural processes in the service of a highly personal artistic statement. However, John Luther Adams' recent work tends to transcend his compositional devices it is simply potent, compelling music that is timeless in its sublimity. This is quietly expressive music in which process never intrudes on the music's 'sounding,' but churns away in the background, while the foreground shimmers with a simple yet great joy in the very making of sounds. It is a music that may be readily appreciated on both intellectual and sensual levels." 3 works from 1998-01, performed on bass clarinet, vibraphone, marimba, piano, electric keyboard, violin, doublebass. Artist: ADAMS, JOHN LUTHER Title: In The White Silence Label: NEW WORLD RECORDS Format: CD Price: Catalog #: NW 80600 "Since 1978, Alaska has been John Luther Adams's (b. 1953) home and a major inspirational source for most of his compositions. Almost all of his compositions evoke natural phenomena, in particular the wintry Northern landscapes, light, and colors as well as elements of indigenous Alaskan cultures. Adams's music thus shares aesthetic features with nature-inspired works of such composers as Debussy, Ives, Sibelius, and Hovhaness. Due to the use of certain 'minimalist' strategies Adams's music is often classified as 'minimalist' or 'post-minimalist.' He avoids expressive musical rhetoric, prefers reduced and elementally simple musical material, and frequently uses sustained tones and static textures. Adams's compositions embrace just intonation, consonance, and modal harmony, and they often feature a meditative quality and extended length reminiscent of Feldmanesque dimensions.

The Avalon Project : John Adams - Annual Message The Avalon Project at Yale Law School. First Annual Message of john adams.United States November 22, 1797. I was for some time apprehensive http://www.yale.edu/lawweb/avalon/presiden/sou/adamsme1.htm
Extractions: November 22, 1797 I was for some time apprehensive that it would be necessary, on account of the contagious sickness which afflicted the city of Philadelphia, to convene the National Legislature at some other place. This measure it was desirable to avoid, because it would occasion much public inconvenience and a considerable public expense and add to the calamities of the inhabitants of this city, whose sufferings must have excited the sympathy of all their fellow citizens. Therefore, after taking measures to ascertain the state and decline of the sickness, I postponed my determination, having hopes, now happily realized, that, without hazard to the lives or health of the members, Congress might assemble at this place, where it was next by law to meet. I submit, however, to your consideration whether a power to postpone the meeting of Congress, without passing the time fixed by the Constitution upon such occasions, would not be a useful amendment to the law of 1794. Although I can not yet congratulate you on the reestablishment of peace in Europe and the restoration of security to the persons and properties of our citizens from injustice and violence at sea, we have, nevertheless, abundant cause of gratitude to the source of benevolence and influence for interior tranquillity and personal security, for propitious seasons, prosperous agriculture, productive fisheries, and general improvements, and, above all, for a rational spirit of civil and religious liberty and a calm but steady determination to support our sovereignty, as well as our moral and our religious principles, against all open and secret attacks.
Why Biblical Counseling Is Unbiblical john H. Coe's reply to Jay adams' and the Bobgans' affirmation of the Bible as the sole source for authority concerning human nature, values and prescriptions for healthy living. http://www-students.biola.edu/~jay/bcresponse.html
Extractions: A number of Christians both lay and clergy are still uncomfortable with and even hostile to the notion of Christian psychology or counseling. Individuals such as Jay Adams (1973, 1976), Dave Hunt (1987) and the Bobgans (1986) have successfully instilled a distrust within large sections of evangelicalism, particularly the more conservative wing, concerning any attempt to address the human moral and spiritual condition from sources outside the biblical text. Instead, they promote and defend what they call the Biblical counseling" position (which I shall refer to as the BC position, cf. Adams, 1973, p.15). This approach to counseling affirms the Bible as its sole source for authority concerning human nature, values and prescriptions for healthy living. The BC position raises a number of important and deep issues concerning the nature of authority in the scriptures and the social sciences concerning their ability to address values and the human condition. I will explore these issues from the perspective of the scriptures themselves, particularly the OT Wisdom literature, and argue contrary to the BC position for the legitimacy of a science of values which discovers God's moral wisdom in nature, particularly in human phenomena Consequently, I hope to show that a developed OT Wisdom theology provides a biblical framework, mandate and justification for the work of the Christian psychologist. If successful, this will provide the psychologically informed theologian, pastor, counselor as well as psychologist a common ground in the bible from which to speak psychology gently and wisely into an otherwise resistant church. As the OT sage says, the tongue of the wise seeks to make words of knowledge acceptable

John Adams' Inaugural The inaugural address of john adams in Philadelphia in March 1797. http://www.ukans.edu/carrie/docs/texts/03adam3.htm
Extractions: The first Vice President became the second President of the United States. His opponent in the election, Thomas Jefferson, had won the second greatest number of electoral votes and therefore had been elected Vice President by the electoral college. Chief Justice Oliver Ellsworth administered the oath of office in the Hall of the House of Representatives in Federal Hall before a joint session of Congress. The zeal and ardor of the people during the Revolutionary war, supplying the place of government, commanded a degree of order sufficient at least for the temporary preservation of society. The Confederation which was early felt to be necessary was prepared from the models of the Batavian and Helvetic confederacies, the only examples which remain with any detail and precision in history, and certainly the only ones which the people at large had ever considered. But reflecting on the striking difference in so many particulars between this country and those where a courier may go from the seat of government to the frontier in a single day, it was then certainly foreseen by some who assisted in Congress at the formation of it that it could not be durable. Negligence of its regulations, inattention to its recommendations, if not disobedience to its authority, not only in individuals but in States, soon appeared with their melancholy consequences universal languor, jealousies and rivalries of States, decline of navigation and commerce, discouragement of necessary manufactures, universal fall in the value of lands and their produce, contempt of public and private faith, loss of consideration and credit with foreign nations, and at length in discontents, animosities, combinations, partial conventions, and insurrection, threatening some great national calamity.
