HOME COOKING: Chick-fil-A's Best Recipes You Can Do At Home - Here are the original recipes - easily cooked right in your own kitchen

Credited with introducing the original boneless breast of chicken sandwich and pioneering in-mall fast food, Chick-fil-A is one of the largest privately-owned restaurant chains in America.

Chic-fil-A has a variety of chicken products such as nuggets, chicken salads and chicken sandwiches.

Chic-Fil-A is known for their famous chicken sandwich, but also has great wraps, salads, soups and much more. Chic-Fil-A has a great breakfast menu and is the only place you get biscuits and sausage gravy at a drive-through window in your pajamas in the morning. The chain has over 1,300 locations in 37 U.S. states and the District of Columbia. It is distinct among fast-food chains in that its stores are closed on Sundays...

The company's TV ads have featured cows parachuting onto a football field during a college football game, complete with "EAT MOR CHIKIN" banners, and attacking the hamburger vendor.

With the country facing challenging economic times, Chick-fil-A continues to grow, with plans to add 65 new stand-alone locations across the nation this year, creating more than 4,200 new jobs as well as providing a positive business impact in local communities. The menu at the newest restaurants include several enhancements rolled out chain-wide in 2008.

These include a new Chick-fil-A Chargrilled and Fruit Salad with Harvest Nut Granola topping, Chick-fil-A Chick-n-Strips that are 50 percent larger and are complemented by a new proprietary dipping sauce called Chick-fil-A Sauce, a Chick-fil-A Chicken Salad Sandwich served on a new premium Wheatberry bread with green leaf lettuce, and Cool Wrap selections that come in a new multi-grain flatbread.

What is the best, most accurate translation of the Bible from the original lanugages?

I've heard of a translation by George Lamsa but it's gotten mixed reviews. I want a translation that takes into account what the writers actually meant, the culture, references, accurate translations from the original language... with notes, notes would be good. Any suggestions?

Well, in fact this is a sort of passion of mine - finding the most accurate bible translation. I would like to point out first of all that no **objective** evaluation of bible translation accuracy exists or has been applied to even one bible. You can read more (in plain language) on why it is difficult to *objectively* determine the accuracy of a translation here

http://www.bible-reviews.com/topics_accuracy.html

(please excuse the giant buttons - I am slowly renovating the site)

Now - that being said, there *are* **indicators** that we can use to determine the accuracy of a bible translation. Those are **very** briefly discussed here

http://www.bible-reviews.com/topics_accuracy_indicators.html

and I have begun a chart which compares these indicators here

http://www.bible-reviews.com/charts_accuracy.html

Now - I have personally read through several bible versions, and read large portions of several more. In my **subjective, unprofessional but unbiased opinion**, the most accurate English translation at this time is the New Jerusalem Bible. As "evidence" of my lack of bias, the New Jerusalem Bible (NJB) is a Roman Catholic bible - but I am a Fundamentalist Christian.

It so happens that the NJB comes in one of the best scholarly study bibles available (these 2 editions have identical bible text and study notes)

http://www.bibleselector.com/r_njb_ss.html

Look at the "Regular Edition" first. Check out the reviews there at Amazon - they are stellar, and this bible is stellar. I have perused hundreds of bible study reviews at Amazon in my hunt for the perfect study bible. There are other really, really good study bibles - but none paired with a translation as excellent as the NJB.

The DLT edition is rare in the US, but available from UK. It is available in several editions, including expensive leather and cheap laminated paperback. Here are links to Amazon UK if you cannot find them in the U.S.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0232516758?ie=UTF8&tag=wwwjimpettico-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=0232516758

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0232516502?ie=UTF8&tag=wwwjimpettico-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=0232516502

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0232520771?ie=UTF8&tag=wwwjimpettico-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=0232520771

Here is an "old" review of the NJB that I wrote. There are many additional reasons that I still prefer the NJB today over other bibles.

http://www.jimpettis.com/bibles/njb.htm

Finally - here is my huge work-in-progress, the site that guides you step-by-step in selecting the perfect bible. It should at *least* help you to find the perfect bible version, and it might help you to discover the perfect study bible.

http://www.BibleSelector.com

Note: if there are no study bibles listed at that site for the version you want, contact me. I have loads of info on bibles that I have not had time to post to that site, particularly regarding study bibles. I will be happy to help you narrow down your options and answer any questions - just e-mail me.
