	Jim Bakker - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Jerry Falwell called Bakker a liar, embezzler, sexual deviant, and "the greatest scab and cancer on the face of Christianity in two thousand years of church history." Falwell, controversial in his own right, was rumored to be using the situation to gain control of a leading broadcast competitor.
		Bakker's absence resulted in a fierce fight for control of the PTL Inspirational Network, then the leading Christian cable television network in the country, among several other prominent televangelists, which Falwell won.
		Under Falwell's leadership, the PTL Inspirational Network along with PTL's 2500 acre Heritage USA resort was plunged into bankruptcy within a short time and was liquidated at a deep discount.

	Mixed PTL/Static Lgoic
		PTL cells are only used for implementing MUX and XOR/XNOR type logic functions and static gates are used to implement all the remaining logic functions.
		Figure 5 (a) shows that the single-rail and dual-rail mixed PTL styles of the ISCAS85 benchmark circuits using the proposed method are 73% and 50% better than their static counterparts in power consumption with performance gain of 5% and 10%, respectively.
		Figure 5(b) shows that the delay of the single-rail and the dual-rail mixed PTL styles of the benchmark circuits from the microprocessor are 11% and 35% better than that their static counterparts, respectively.

		PTL (standing for "Praise The Lord" and "People That Love") was a conservative religious group and TV network.
		Formed in Charlotte, North Carolina and later moved to Fort Mill, South Carolina, a Charlotte suburb, the PTL Club was a very successful televangelistic group throughout much of the 1970s and 1980s.
		It is noted that "Bakker arranged for Falwell to take over PTL in March in an effort to avoid what he called a "hostile takeover" of the television ministry by people threatening to expose a sexual encounter he admitted to having seven years earlier with church secretary Jessica Hahn."

		She is best known for her tendency to wear extremely heavy makeup, particularly mascara and false eyelashes; for The PTL Club; and for the infidelity (see Jessica Hahn) and financial scandals of her former husband.
		The PTL empire continued to grow under the Bakkers' leadership, but the concern about their opulent lifestyle grew as media reports of an air-conditioned dog house at their Tega Cay, South Carolina lakefront parsonage as well as gold-plated bathroom fixtures dominated newscasts in the 1980s.
		It was widely reported that Falwell's interest in PTL and Heritage USA was solely an attempt to gain control of its profitable cable television network; something which Falwell was unsuccessful in establishing for his own ministry despite numerous requests to the FCC for permission to obtain a satellite license.

	Jim Bakker - Definition, explanation
		The Bakkers greatly contributed to the growth of the network, but their success with a variety show format (including interviews and puppets) sparked controversy, and they were eventually forced out by Robertson in the early 1970s.
		PTL once spent $100,000 for a private jet to fly the Bakkers' clothing across the country.
		Jerry Falwell called Bakker a liar, embezzler, sexual deviate, and "the greatest scab and cancer on the face of Christianity in two thousand years of church history." Falwell was rumored to be using the situation to gain control of a leading broadcast competitor.

	Approximating Uncertain Term Logic Using Time-Skewed Hebbian Learning
		The Hebbian Logic Network is a unique neural network architecture, in which the relationship between symbolic logic and neural net learning dynamic is fairly simple and clear.
		The network of inheritance and similarity links between subnetworks is a kind of “logical network” that exists on a higher level from the network of neurons and synapses, but is implicit in the latter, emergent from the latter, and evolves implicitly based on the dynamics of the latter.
		B “exists in” a neural network, what we mean is that it emerges from the network according to the above definition, not that it is explicitly represented in the network by a synapse or any other particular structure.

	DVD Review - The Eyes of Tammy Faye
		Fenton Bailey and Randy Barbato (co-directors and producers of this film) go to great lengths to paint Tammy Faye as a person who was as affected by the goings-on of her life with Jim Bakker as she was by her portrayal by the media.
		They made millions of dollars for the network (and Jim, the Courts found, for himself) before the network was brought to its knees amid allegations of financial mismanagement and Jim's marital infidelities with uber-tacky, future Playboy vixen, Jessica Hahn.
		She wrote letters to Jerry Falwell, Jessica Hahn and others involved with the downfall of the PTL network, but was either turned down or got no response.

		In September 2004 the Los Angeles Times characterized their personal lifestyle as a "life of luxury." The network reports that during the first twenty years of the network's operation, Paul and Jan were paid roughly one-tenth their current income, with the amounts rising in the past ten years as they approached retirement.
		The network has attracted criticism for its continuous fundraising activities, including a "prosperity gospel," an offshoot of the Word of faith doctrine that appears to promise donors, including impecunious ones, that God will make them rich as long as they have faith and give to TBN.
		Network officials blamed the cancellation mostly on health concerns for both Paul and Jan Crouch, the latter of whom had recent gall badder surgery.

	Judging Jim Bakker
		Jim and his wife Tammy Faye achieved a certain notoriety in the 1980s, Tammy for wearing copious amounts of makeup which always ran because she always cried; Jim for having an affair with then-church secretary Jessica Hahn.
		The PTL channel was Christian-based broadcasting, 24 hours a day, and Andy and I were, well, religious watchers of the shows.
		We'd both rejected the Christian Science religion of our parents; now she was concerned that we were adopting the biblical fundamentalism that ran through both the PTL shows and the predominantly-Baptist area where we lived.

		Then there was the rumour about the private swimming pool that was only open to the PTL executive that had been paid for by the "partners." During my early years there, Uncle Henry took us on a tour of the building he he brought us to the pool, where several children were swimming.
		I am happy that the old PTL Network is carring on in the manner for which it was intended and has not been taken over and used in a non-Christian purpose.
		As I recall, one of Jerry Falwell's motives for taking over PTL and then putting it into bankrupty; was for him to make a bid for the cable network during the bankruptcy court proceedings.

		PTL network is a collection of people with dependencies on each other.
		Networks can be Complete, Incomplete, incomplete stable safe, incomplete stable unsafe, incomplete unstable etc. The effort has to be to create a stable network, and if that is not possible, shoot for a stable safe network, and if not that go for a stable unsafe one.
		An unsafe network might be stable now, but is more likely to break apart coz the people who feel are receiving the raw end of the deal might quit.

		After taking over the PTL Club, as it was known, and taking it into bankruptcy, Falwell called its founder "the greatest scab and cancer on the face of Christianity in two thousand years of church history".
		PTL also spent more than $100 on a purchase of cinnamon rolls because Jim and Tammy wanted the smell of them in their hotel room.

	Guardian \| At 10 she found God. At 16 she found make-up. And the two have never left her
		In the 1980s, when she and Jim Bakker, her then husband, headed the Praise The Lord (PTL) television ministry, spreading the gospel to 13.5m homes and generating more than $120m annually, her spidery eyelashes and crocodile tears served as fodder for countless late-night television satires.
		Then, in 1987, Jim Bakker publicly admitted using $265,000 of PTL money in an unsuccessful bid to buy the silence of Jessica Hahn, a church secretary who claimed he had sex with her in a Florida hotel room.
		With her husband convicted of defrauding PTL supporters of $158m and sentenced to prison, she was reduced to selling off her television wardrobe to get by.

		She has been little heard of in the 12 years since husband Jim Bakker was disgraced, caught cheating on his wife and stealing hundreds of millions of dollars from his Praise the Lord Network faithful, and she was banished to the acrid nowhere of the California desert.
		Oh, she might turn up here and there -- on Roseanne's talk show, watched by the faithful dozens, or co-hosting her own ill-fated talk show with the human punch line JM J. Bullock -- but Tammy Faye was, more or less, nothing but an eyeliner smudge on obscurity's dead-end highway.
		The Eyes of Tammy Faye recounts what by now has become a tiny, tear-stained tragedy symptomatic of the go-go greed of the 1980s: the rise and fall of the most famous televangelist in the country, who was sentenced to 45 years in federal prison for committing fraud.

		Robertson, a former Republican presidential candidate and founder of the influential conservative Christian Broadcasting Network and Christian Coalition, has a long record of similar apocalyptic warnings and provocative statements.
		This time, with the Bakkers fully in control, their show grew quickly until it was carried by close to a hundred stations, with average viewers numbering over twelve million, and the Bakkers had established their own network, The PTL Network.
		When the PTL scandal destroyed fellow Assemblies of God minister Jim Bakker, Swaggart publicly denounced Bakker as "a cancer on the body of Christ." Shortly afterward Swaggart faced his own sex scandal, as a private investigator hired by a rival evangelist Marvin Gorman documented a series of meetings with prostitutes.
