Okay, I might like Dance Dance Revolution, but I'm not this hardcore about it by any means. Nevertheless, apparently some people are. JustDDR.com is selling a souped-up DDR deck called the "Metal Pad DDR Platinum Pro." The foot pads on this luxe dance machine are made of stainless steel, so that you can bring your home arcade a major notch above the norm. The pricing information is in Japanese, so I'm not positive how much it costs, but I'm sure it ain't cheap.
Now that's heavy metal.

Soy Poderosa Because I Can Lend My Voice in Solidarity
My cousin, who was once so hopeful about her life and her future, now felt trapped and betrayed by the American Dream and, even worse, she felt alone. I don't know what exactly happened to me after that day, but something struck inside of me and I knew I had to do something for my cousin and for the thousands of people like her.
Written by Karen Guzman and cross-posted in partnership with the National Latina Institute of Reproductive Health as part of the 2012 Latina Week of Action.
This profile of Karen Guzman is one of several of powerful Latina women advocates throughout the United States.
Every time I hear the word poderosa or powerful, a particular experience in my life strikes me immediately. The details are all incredibly vivid and I begin to remember this particular moment that completely changed my life. I was 18 years old the first time I ever felt empowered to create positive social change. At the time, I was applying for colleges and universities and immigration started to play a huge role in my life. During this time I was lucky to have two of my cousins go through the college application process with me since we were all the same age. It was an exciting time for us because we were all about to be the first ones in our families to go to a college or university.
After years of waiting and asking others for advice on how to apply and what scholarships to look for, we were finally going to achieve one of the biggest goals we had set for ourselves: to be professionals in the United States. To my surprise, it was while filling out one of those applications that I found out that one of my cousins was undocumented. The blank after "SSN:" on an application–that I had quickly filled out and overlooked–was the only thing standing in the way of her dreams. Never mind the fact that she wanted to be a doctor and was incredibly smart, or that she was on the honor roll every quarter in high school. It felt as if her shot of going to a four-year university was shot down instantly. The day I found out about my cousin's immigration status, I felt hopeless and dis-empowered because I knew that nothing I could say to her would bring the light back to her eyes when she talked about her future.
Sex. Abortion. Parenthood. Power.
The latest news, delivered straight to your inbox.
My cousin, who was once so hopeful about her life and her future, now felt trapped and betrayed by the American Dream and, even worse, she felt alone. I don't know what exactly happened to me after that day, but something struck inside of me and I knew I had to do something for my cousin and for the thousands of people like her. A couple of months later, the perfect opportunity showed up as I found out about a rally in Washington, DC right by the mall on a sunny summer day. This rally would be the first one I ever participated in, but certainly not the last. I decided to go with my mom because I was terrified of going by myself and since she knew how much this meant to me, I knew she would be a great supporter.
Together we went to the rally for immigration reform, which was hosted by the campaign to Reform Immigration for America where hundreds of individuals and organizations came out to express their thoughts on our broken immigration system and possible solutions to fix it. Among the advocates and supporters there that day were grandparents, fathers, mothers, and lots of youth. The diversity of the people really struck me and I felt at home. Between chants and marching, I eventually found myself next to about 15 DREAMers from Texas. They were holding up a huge American flag with the word "DREAM" on top of the red and white stripes. Their motivation and energy was contagious so my mom and I decided to join them. While we marched, we each exchanged stories and in each one of them I saw my cousin and I knew she wasn't alone. Their courage and resilience really touched me and I still remember feeling like I could actually do something about the immigration system in America—right then and there I felt poderosa—powerful and almost invincible. I realized that my words and my actions do have meaning and purpose and that I could be a catalyst for social change in my community.
Years after that rally, I created several events and programs at the University of Maryland to raise awareness on immigration and have been actively supporting the Marlyand DREAMers. I am continuously finding ways to engage my community to fight for justice by being a support and resource for them, after all that's when I feel that I am a poderosa. My cousin, who was my main motivation for my activism ended up getting permanent residency and is now in the process of completing her nursing degree. Thank you primita for letting me find my passion and helping others realize just how poderosas y poderosos they truly are!

Frequently Asked Questions
Here are the answers to some of the questions we get asked most often about our products, website and services. Still can't find the answer you're looking for? Contact one of our customer care advisors here. We'll be more than happy to help.
Can you provide me with valuations for selling or insurance purposes?
Unfortunately, we are unable to give valuations for any purposes for products manufactured by ourselves. We suggest you contact your local antiques dealer to obtain a valuation.
Can you help me identify a product or pattern?
Due to our small team of Customer Care Advisors we don't always get the chance to search for products or patterns through back-catalogues or are unable to provide the information requested within required timeframes. May we suggest you try the following sites for more information before contacting us:
- Replacements.com showcase all brands with various information
- The Wedgwood Museum - Online Collections
I have purchased a clock in the past but the clock face needs replacing, can you help?
Yes, of course. Simply call our Visitor Centre Shop on +44 (0)1782 282875 where they will be able to place an order for your Wedgwood clock face.
Where are Wedgwood products made?
For over 260 years Wedgwood Product Design and Development has taken place in the United Kingdom, guaranteeing English authenticity and values. Today, Fiskars UK Ltd maintains exactly the same engineering excellence and proven quality control in all our owned facilities in which we produce product and continues to adhere to these world famous standards.
Like many luxury brands, we work with the best partners across the world whose skills and quality standards equal our own. To ensure that production from our manufacturing and sourcing resources mirrors all Stoke-on-Trent manufacturing activities, developments and precise tolerances for complete Customer satisfaction, Wedgwood staff from the United Kingdom transfer to or work with the teams to train, maintain and manage the production processes.
Depending on our product requirements, we will maintain production in both locations. Around the world, the vision of Wedgwood, based on the brand values of quality, craftsmanship and innovation, has not changed and continues to be absolutely English.
What kind of bone is used in making Wedgwood tableware?
Our china is manufactured with a type of soft-paste porcelain, which contains greater than 35% tricalcium orthophosphate. This makes our china extremely hard and durable and cannot absorb fluids or food. The processing of the china results in a beautiful translucent white appearance,which is considered among the strongest types of porcelain in the industry.
Why do my plates have grey marks on them?
Some stoneware owners notice grey marks or "scratches" on their dinnerware. This is not a defect. These marks can occur when metal utensils come into contact with the hard glazes typically used by most stoneware manufacturers.
Stoneware glazes look and feel very smooth; however, the surface is composed of microscopic peaks and valleys. When metal utensils, which are often softer than the glaze, contact the stoneware, tiny metal particles become caught in the microscopic valleys.
Though some users characterise the grey marks as scratches, usually there is no damage to the glaze or the stoneware body. The metal deposits can be removed with a variety of cleansers such as Bar Keepers Friend. The combination of chemical action and a mild abrasive in the cleaner easily removes the metal particles from the glaze.
Does your website have a Wedding List?
Yes, of course. Simply call our Visitor Centre Shop on +44 (0)1782 282875 where you will be able to book your wedding list consultation.
When will my order be charged?
Your card will not be charged until your order is despatched.
What metal do you use for your jewellery?
Our products differ and we use different metals for different items but the information should be shown on our product pages. Below we explain the differences in our collections.
Sterling Silver Collection
Made from solid sterling silver and hallmarked with the British sterling silver impress. The jewellery is protected using the latest technology of anti tarnish treatments.
Gold and Palladium Plate Collections
The jewellery items are produced in brass, and plated in either 18ct gold or Palladium. The 18ct gold plated items will be plated using a new advanced process, which makes the plating more durable and wear resistant. It also creates a greater shine. Palladium belongs to the Platinum group of metals and is silver white in colour.

Thank you so much for your support, we have had a very difficult year with all these babies
Chance came home on Oct. 9th for around the clock care. He is doing well, still not walking and if he will ever walk we won't know for many months. We just don't know the outcome, but we knew we have to give him a shot at being able to walk. He is such a good little boy. He is in pain but rarely complains. I have to hold the food bowl and water bowl up to him as he can't eat on his own and he is so patient about it. Has a hard time laying down right now, but we are hoping with lots of care, love and therapy he will improve.
The surgery cost a lot more than we expected, $6,311 YIKES!!! That is not include the MRI. We ask for your support, every little bit helps.
Please keep Chance in your prayers and lets hope a miracle happens to this precious baby.
Thank you!

Little Chance is doing well. Hating his physical therapy, I tell him it hurst me just as much as I don't like to cause him pain, but must be done. Though I know it is too early to tell, I feel his back legs are getting stronger. I place his legs and stand him up, while he is eating, and the other day I felt he stayed up for a few seconds. :-) His progress will be slow, but I am praying that this little boy one day will walk.
Please keep him in your prayers and pass the words as we are in desperate need of donations!
Thank you!

Sorry for the delay in updates we have been dealing with some very sick dogs and we lost one too :-(
Chance is doing well, still not walking but it will take a while. He started physical therapy at a special therapist. He is going twice a week for 4 hrs. and doing under water treadmills and a variety of special therapy. Unfortunately the therapy is expensive. To get a discount we have to book 5 session and all 5 of them are $500. We can't do this much longer, we signed up for 10 session as that is all we can afford. He will need a lot more than that to have an opportunity to walk. When he goes to therapy he really does well with the strength of his legs and movements. We are trying to raise money to be able to continue his therapy to give him the chance he needs.
Happy Holidays every one!! We appreciate you!

Hi Everyone!
Sorry for the delay in posting. It is one crisis after another in our world. Chance gave us a big scare last week. During Physical Therapy he collapsed and stopped breathing. Luckily all his Dr's. are at the same facilities and he got immediate care. They got him breathing again, then the battery of test started to find out what is going on. He had blood test done, chest x-rays, etc. etc. When all came back normal, we had to do an endoscopy to see if something was wrong with his airway. The Dr's. found his palate was elongated, which was a shock as he made no noise when breathing or excited. We do palate surgery on about 99% of our Pugs and we are very much aware of the danger of elongated palate. But he had no signs that he had it, so we learned something new. He went into emergency palate surgery. After $3,300 and a day in the hospital he is back home and recuperating. Unfortunately we had to put the physical therapy on hold, until he is all well, which will throw him back a few weeks. I can tell his back legs are getting weaker without PT. The other issue is that we can no longer afford PT for him, it is $500 for 5 sessions, we already paid for 3 - 5 days sessions and between all the other dogs needing care and Chance's latest episode we are tapped out. We are trying to come up with fundraisers and getting sponsors so we can continue getting him to potentially walk. As of right now he is still not walking, but made great strides in being able to eat on his own and lays down like a normal dog, which he was not able to do before. So all in all great improvement for our precious Chance. We urge you to continue helping us with donations, try to find sponsors for us and help in any way you can.
We thank you so much for your on-going support

Chance continues to do well. Still in physical therapy, though we won't be able to keep it up much longer as we just don't have the money for it. With therapy he has gotten a lot stronger. Still not able to walk, but overall he can do so much more. Hopefully we can somehow raise some money to keep him in therapy and give him every opportunity to walk. Thank you

Oh man! I was totally going to say "skids". Well, I was going to say "it depends; if they were skateboarding, then skaters. If they were poor, then skids," though the kids I knew as skids were already smoking in elementary school and dropping out in high school. And I'm from Waterloo, not Toronto, so.
Also, on government forms I'm single, because they have the same definition as your mom.

"Skids" was the standard term at my school as well and I hear it so rarely now that I had begun to think it was particular to my time and place--Saskatchewan in the 1980s. Evidently not.

So the word "skid" exists in pockets all over the country, in some schools common, in some nonexistent?! What is the carrier of this term from one area to another? How does it travel so capriously?

chesterfield, couch, or sofa?
Just wondering.

To me "couch" and "sofa" are interchangeable, but "chesterfield" is a baffling, unsuable word (American parents).

Insuring Your Good Name
Educators Employment Liability Protects Against False Accusations
Dave Arnold
What's it worth to be a member of the National Education Association (NEA)? Well, what's your reputation worth? What value do you place in protecting your good name against false accusations?
In dollar terms, NEA membership could be worth $1million or more, especially if you are an education support professional (ESP) or teacher who has been falsely accused of a crime. In addition to the many other benefits, this one is worth your weight in gold.
A Public Nightmare
We are taught that a person is innocent until proven guilty. But when you are a school employee and criminal charges are filed against you, you can be sure the world will assume you are guilty until proven innocent. Just ask any school employee ever accused of sexual harassment or embezzlement.
Not to worry. NEA members are covered by Educators Employment Liability (EEL). This policy involves the following:
School districts and community colleges are required to indemnify (hold harmless) teachers and other school employees against liability arising out of civil rights, injury, and property damage claims when damages are sought for negligent or wrongful acts occurring during the scope of employment. The protection includes the cost of defending such actions as well as any damages that might actually be awarded. This protection extends to extra-curricular activities as well as events occurring during normal school hours. Some school districts purchase insurance to protect their employees against such liabilities.
- Additional civil coverage is provided by the EEL policy for $1 million and monitoring of legal defense provided by the school district.
This same EEL protection extends to members who must defend themselves against criminal charges by reimbursing attorney fees and legal cost to a maximum of $35,000, when the member is found innocent or the charges are dropped.
The policy will also reimburse bail bond expenses of up to $1,000 and reimbursement of up to $500 damages to personal property arising out of assault.
Faculty in health related fields may purchase additional liability insurance at low cost through NEA. This coverage goes beyond the regular EEL policy to provide additional protection for five types of health care practitioners: nurses, occupational therapist, physical therapists, dental hygienists and athletic trainers. Only members in these occupational categories may purchase this extended coverage.
When an employee is a named defendant in a lawsuit arising out of the employee's educational work or has had an incident which he or she believes may result in a suit, he or she should contact their UniServ director for assistance in filing a claim. The member should be prepared to provide supporting documents such as copies of court filings.

The fish is often confused with the roach (Rutilus rutilus), as the two species are similar in appearance (2). In the rudd, the dorsal fin is situated further back than in the roach. Another key difference between the two is that the rudd has a keel on the belly, whereas in the roach the belly is rounded (2). The rudd has a bluish green back with silvery-white sides and belly. The dorsal fin and pectoral fins are greyish with a reddish tint and all the other fins are bright red (2); it is this feature that the seventeenth century name 'rudd' refers to (4).
Rudd live in small shoals, and typically occur near the surface of the water (2). It is an omnivorous fish, feeding on invertebrates and a range of plants (3). In some areas where the species has been introduced, the plant-eating habits of the fish have serious implications for native ecosystems (5).
Spawning takes place in May and June (2). The colourless or pale yellow eggs are scattered in open water and are fertilised externally. They become attached to weeds in shallow water (3).
The rudd is native to Eurasia, being widely distributed in Europe and middle Asia. It is found in the basins of the North, Baltic, Caspian, Aral and Black seas (3). In Britain it is absent from Scotland (2). It has been introduced to many countries around the world, including the USA, Canada, and New Zealand (3).
The rudd is found in sluggish water bodies where there is little current, including lakes, canals, ponds, rivers and marshlands (3).
The rudd is not currently considered to be threatened (3).
There are not currently known to be any threats to the fish.
There are not known to be any specific conservation measures currently in place for the fish (4).

As a homeowner, you want the most affordable and energy efficient windows on the market. We get that. Have you considering installing fiberglass windows? These windows are the newest option in the industry, combining the efficiency of vinyl, the strength of aluminum, and the beauty of wood. Fiberglass windows are available in an unlimited combination of colors, as well as stainable wood interiors, making them a customizable solution to match your home perfectly.
Ultra Windows has experience installing fiberglass windows throughout the West University Place area. Call us today to schedule your window installation or replacement!
Why Choose Fiberglass?
Fiberglass has proven itself to be an incredibly durable material from which to manufacture a wide range of products, such as boats, ladders, automobile parts, airplane parts, golf clubs, bridge components, and many others. This durability helps ensure that your fiberglass windows won't easily rot, rust, warp, bow, or crack—making them the ultimate choice for West University Place homeowners who want efficiency without compromising long-term durability.
Fiberglass windows are one of the top choices in the industry. They are rated as follows:
- Solar Heat Gain – .19 – .21
- U-value – .29
- Air Leakage – .07 (about twice as air tight as an average vinyl window)
- Design Pressure Rating – Residential 75
Not sure what these terms mean? Click on the individual term to learn more on our window glossary!
But their advantages don't stop there. Fiberglass has an extremely low rate of contraction and expansion, seal failures are almost non-existent, and air leakage is greatly minimized! The more a product moves, particularly during the summer months, the more likely it is to leak, allowing your conditioned air to escape. Don't install a less expensive option that will end up costing you money in energy efficiency, leaks, and repairs! Install a durable solution like fiberglass windows in your West University Place area home!
Benefits of Fiberglass Windows
As a homeowner in West University Place, you understand the importance of installing quality windows that will last for many years to come. At Ultra Windows, we install only the best products on the market, which is why our team is trained to skillfully install fiberglass windows. Still not sure whether you should install vinyl, aluminum, wood, or fiberglass windows? Some of the benefits of fiberglass windows include:
- Durability – Fiberglass is a thermally set product, meaning that it will not change shape in the hot Texas heat. Unlike vinyl windows, fiberglass windows will not bow, sag, or warp during the hot summer months. Furthermore, because of their stability, fiberglass windows continue to operate and work as smoothly in 10 years as they did on the day they were installed.
- Longevity – Fiberglass windows are not damaged or degraded from moisture, as wood windows are. No more worries about rotting wood windows. Even the extreme combination of heat and humidity in West University Place is no match for fiberglass windows.
- Maintenance – Fiberglass windows are pre-painted with a heavy duty, baked on enamel paint—straight from the factory. As a result, you'll never have to scrape and paint your windows again. However, should you choose to change colors, feel free to paint your windows any color you wish.
- Versatility – Fiberglass windows are available in five standard colors or unlimited custom colors. Choose from grids between the glass, no grids, or simulated divided lites on the glass to give your West University Place home just the right look.
- Beauty – Fiberglass windows offer narrower frames and sashes than vinyl, providing the upscale look of wood. Stainable interiors are available to match the look of wood paneling.
- Efficiency – Fiberglass windows are among the most energy efficient windows in the industry. Because of its low rate of contraction and expansion, the air leakage rating of a fiberglass window will remain consistent over time. Ultra's fiberglass windows have the lowest air leakage rating of any fiberglass windows in the industry and one of the highest design pressure ratings on the market.
Ready to reap the benefits of fiberglass windows? Contact Ultra Windows to learn more!

Welcome to Watch List, where we identify five things on TV to watch while you stay at home and celebrate "Parks and Recreation" being renewed for a fourth season. Yay!!! Woohoo! More funny for daddy! LET'S GO!
THE PEE WEE HERMAN SHOW ON BROADWAY – 10:00PM Saturday (HBO) I grew up with "Pee Wee's Playhouse" on TV every Saturday morning, and then Pee Wee did that thing he did and suddenly it was gone. But now Pee Wee is BACK! And he's on Broadway! And he's still got the talking chair and smoking hot Miss Yvonne and everything! (No Laurence Fishburne, though. I'm told the cowboy costume was a tight squeeze.) So for a little whiff of nostalgia, check out HBO's taping of the live show. Maybe Pee Wee will get arrested again after the show's over to really make you feel like a kid again. ANTICIPATION: I AM NOT A BABY! I AM NOT A BABEEEEEE!
BIG LOVE – 9:00PM Sunday (HBO) It's the final episode of "Big Love" ever. So tune and say goodbye to Bill and Barb and Margene and the rest of those crazy polygamists. Hopefully, this one won't end with an inexplicable smash cut to black. ANTICIPATION: BITTERSWEET!
CELEBRITY APPRENTICE – 9:00PM Sunday (NBC) One of the teams questions their leader's mental competence. Ah, so Busey got to lead a team this week! NICE! ANTICIPATION: BUSEY IN CHARGE!
CHARLIE SHEEN: ON THE BRINK – 10:00PM Sunday (TLC) Join TLC as they examine the stable, happy life of Charlie Sheen, a relatively anonymous actor who appears on television only very rarely. Sheen's ex-gal Ginger Lynn dishes about her former lover. And you know you're in big trouble when even a porn star is like, "Man, that dude has issues." ANTICIPATION: SHEEN!
BOB'S BURGERS – 8:30PM Sunday (FOX) While I'm extremely happy that "Parks and Rec" got renewed, I'm not quite as optimistic about the fate of this show. And that's a shame, because "Bob's Burgers" is easily my favorite new comedy of the season, and it just doesn't seem to be getting any traction. I think if it were airing on cable, it would be a much greater success. It would have been a better fit for that show's oddball sensibilities. But I think FOX was too big a stage for a show that's destined to be loved by a small few and ignored by everyone else. ANTICIPATION: SAVE BOB'S!
Weekend Watch List: PEE WEE!
Welcome to Watch List, where we identify five things on TV to watch while you stay at home and celebrate "Parks and Recreation" being renewed for a fourth season. Yay!!! Woohoo! More funny for daddy! LET'S GO!

Five things to know about Pope Francis
(CNN) -- From the Vatican to Buenos Aires, Catholics worldwide rejoiced when Cardinal Jorge Bergoglio became the new pope.
He's the first Jesuit and the first Latin American in modern times to lead the world's 1.2 billion Catholics.
But in some ways, he's just a normal guy.
Here are five things to know about Pope Francis:
1. His name says a lot about him
Unlike other recent pontiffs -- John Paul II, Benedict XVI -- Pope Francis doesn't have a numeral after his name. That's because he's the first to take the name Francis.
Why Francis?
The pope wanted to honor St. Francis of Assisi, an admirer of nature and a servant to the poor and destitute.
St. Francis of Assisi was born the son of a rich cloth merchant. But he lived in rags among beggars at St. Peter's Basilica in Rome.
Those close to Pope Francis see similarities between the two men.
"Francis of Assisi is ...someone who turned his back on the wealth of his family and the lifestyle he had, and bonded with lepers and the poor." said the Rev. Thomas Rosica, Vatican's deputy spokesman. "Here this is pope known for his care for AIDS patients and people who are very sick. Who is known for his concern with single mothers whose babies were refused to be baptized by priests in his diocese.
"He scolded those priests last year and said, 'How can you turn these people away when they belong to us? '"
2. He's not actually the first pope from outside Europe
Sure, Francis is the first non-European pope in modern times. But back in the 8th century, a Syrian -- Pope St. Gregory III -- led the church from 731 to 741 A.D.
We've also had popes from Bethlehem (St. Evaristus, from 97 to 105 A.D.), Jerusalem (Pope Theodore I, from 642 to 649) and modern-day Libya (Saint Victor I, from 189 to 199) Several other Syrians have also been pontiff in the last few millennia.
Of course, the majority of popes have been Italian. But with Francis' appointment, the tide could be shifting to outside Europe.
3. He's a pope of the people
In some ways, Pope Francis is just a normal guy.
"The new pope is a very humble man," said the Rev. Eduardo Mangiarotti, an Argentine priest. "He takes public transport every day."
He also chose to live in an apartment instead of the archbishop's palace, passed on a chauffeured limousine and cooked his own meals, CNN Vatican analyst John Allen wrote in a profile published by National Catholic Reporter.
In his first public act as pontiff, Pope Francis broke with tradition by asking the estimated 150,000 people packed into St. Peter's Square to pray for him, rather than him blessing the crowd first.
"He is a very simple man," said Luis R. Zarama, auxiliary bishop of Atlanta. "It's very clear from the way he approached the people and asked them to bless him and pray for him. It's a beautiful sign of closeness and humility."
The pontiff broke with another tradition by refusing to use a platform to elevate himself above the cardinals standing with him as he was introduced to the world as Pope Francis.
"He said I'll stay down here," said Cardinal Timothy Dolan, archbishop of New York and the president of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops. "He met each of us on our own level."
4. He comes with a side of controversy
Francis opposes same-sex marriage and abortion, which isn't surprising as leader of the socially conservative Catholic church.
But as a cardinal, Francis clashed with the government of Argentine President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner over his opposition to gay marriage and free distribution of contraceptives.
His career as a priest in Argentina coincided with the so-called Dirty War -- and some say the church didn't do enough to confront the military dictatorship.
As many as 30,000 people died or disappeared during the seven-year period that began with a coup in 1976.
Francis, in particular, was accused in a complaint of complicity in the 1976 kidnapping of two liberal Jesuit priests, Allen wrote. Francis denied the charge.
"The best evidence that I know of that this was all a lie and a series of salacious attacks was that Amnesty International who investigated that said that was all untrue," said Jim Nicholson, former U.S. Ambassador to the Holy See. "These were unfair accusations of this fine priest."
5. He faces a host of challenges ahead
Francis takes the helm of a church that has been rocked in recent years by sex abuse by priests and claims of corruption and infighting among the church hierarchy.
He may may need to find a way to draw new Catholics into the church where it is in decline, said Phillip M. Thompson, executive director of the Aquinas Center of Theology at Emory University.
And he'll also need find ways of working with shifting viewpoints among Catholics. In the United States, for example, 90% of Catholics are using contraception and 82% think it is morally permissible.
"The church has conservative positions on human sexuality, bioethics, etc., but liberal positions on issues such as economic regulation, the death penalty and immigration," Thompson said. "A church divided against itself seems unlikely to renew our political or cultural structures."
CNN's Dana Ford, Jen Christensen, Michael Martinez and Chelsea J. Carter contributed to this report.

Frost and Fire is the debut album by the heavy metal band Cirith Ungol. Its music is generally faster and more simplistic than that of King of the Dead, which saw the band adopt a doom metal style influenced heavily by progressive rock. The album was produced by Cirith Ungol. Originally released by Cirith Ungol on Liquid Flames Records in 1980, the album was re-released in 1981 by Enigma Records, re-released again along with King of the Dead on one CD by One Way Records in 1995, and finally re-released again in September 1999 on Metal Blade Records. A bootleg picture disc version of this LP, limited to 500 hand-numbered copies, also exists.
Fun fact: The legendary swiss black/thrash/experimental metal band Celtic Frost took their name from this album. They took the "Frost" from "Frost and Fire" and changed "Cirith" to "Celtic".
Of course we know about it. We even were supposed to play support for Celtic Frost shows in L.A., but their management didn't want us! Sad, because you must know that we were always better live than on LP, we have over 1000 gigs behind us!
-Robert Garven, Iron Pages interview 1994 (approx. translation from german)
The cover
The coverart was created by Michael Whelan for Michael Moorcocks fantasy books. It is entitled "Stormbringer" and has inspired Deep Purple's "Stormbringer", Hawkwinds "The Chronicle of the Black Sword", Magnum's "Stormbringer", Blue Öyster Cult's Black Blade, Blind Guardian's "Fast to Madness" and many more.
At the time we wanted a "Sword and Sorcery" theme cover called "Berserker" by Frank Frazetta, a famous sword and sorcery artist, but it was taken by the country rock band MOLLY HATCHET! I was reading Stormbringer by Michael Moorcock at the time and was thinking, "man this is the ultimate cover art!" I never thought we could use it but I contacted the publisher who got me in touch with Michael Whelan, who is one of the few people in our entire music career who was honest, friendly and kind, and we got to use it. I think we were the first album cover he had done at the time and we really wanted to use all his Elric series on our covers which we did! I told him that I always wanted to buy the painting for the cover of #1 (Stormbringer) from him if we made it big but we never did. He was quite successful then, but now he is probably the world foremost fantasy artist/painter/illustrator and his paintings cost a lot of money. It's funny, DEEP PURPLE had an album named after the book and we got the cover. BLUE OYSTER CULT also had a song, "Bane of the Black Sword" which was based on Michael Moorcock's writing.
-Robert Garven, Metal Nightmare interview 2000
To me, Elric is a classic anti-hero. He deplores all the evil in his world, and tries to fight against it, but in the end, he cannot overcome it and even unwittingly aids the forces of chaos.
-Greg Lindstrom, Tombstone interview 09/2001
The 1999-remaster has the title "Frost and Fire" on the front, as seen here.
The band in their own words
* A note about the credits
Actually, Michael didn't join the banduntil after we recorded the "Frost And Fire" album in December 1980. I played bass on that record, but we put Flint's name on the album so people would recognize him as a band member when they saw us live.
-Greg Lindstrom, interview by Patrick Lefevre
I wish we could have gotten a heavier sound, but were all still learning how to use the studio. We definitely would have liked to put "Last Laugh" and "Hype Performance" on the album, but we basically just ran out of money to pay for recording time. Remember, we paid for everything on "Frost And Fire" ourselves, from the recording time to the shrinkwrap.
-Greg Lindstrom, interview by Patrick Lefevre
I'm partial to F & F, I just wish we could have gotten a heavier sound on the album, but we were on a very limited budget and we were all still learning how to use the studio. The sound I imagined in my head was much heavier.
-Greg Lindstrom
We wanted to make it big, but all of our music was so heavy and dark, we thought we would use our most commercial material on Frost and Fire, so that we would get air time and stuff. Although all the lyrics and some of the music on Frost and Fire were written by Greg, almost all of our songs over the years were a collaborative effort, some times "I" would even hum out parts until we got it right. Everything had to be perfect, sometimes leading to fist fights over riffs. Anyway, it just turned out Greg's songs had the more commercial sound. After Frost and Fire came out it was only played a couple of times on the LA radio station KLOS because everyone said it was way too heavy..... So we figured FUCK IT!!! If they think that is heavy why are we holding back? Let's show them something really heavy!!! We wrote about thirty songs with Greg that have never been released, some not even on tape. It was only understandable that we put some on King of the Dead. Greg did not leave until after Frost and Fire, so we were writing songs up to the day he left.
-Robert Garven
The cover is painted by Michael Whelan and called Stormbringer. According to Greg, it is one of the best album covers.
One reviewer in Kerrang! called Frost And Fire the worst heavy metal album ever recorded! I think a lot of critics at the time just didn't know who to compare us to and tended to dismiss us. But the fan reaction from all over the world was great. Unfortunately, our albums didn't have very good distribution and were often hard to find in stores. And that's part of the reason I quit the band. I felt I had reached a turning point in my life after graduating college and spending 10 years in the band. It was more than a year after Frost and Fire had been released, and sales were decent, but nothing was really happening for us, and I felt it was time to move on, which I did with much regret.
-Greg Lindstrom
We used to walk around neighborhoods knocking on doors and offering to wash peoples' cars! The first 3000 copies of "Frost And Fire", as well as the recording costs were totally paid for by the band.
-Greg Lindstrom, The Corroseum interview
I think the confusion lies with "Frost & Fire", which we wrote to get noticed and popular and so it was intentionally all of our most accessible or radio friendly or commercial songs. We wrote and played heavier songs before and after but that album was meant to launch our career. Unfortunately it was considered too heavy by the radio stations in LA, and though it did receive much underground and college airplay it was not apparently what we needed to succeed. After Greg left we said well, why try to appease an audience that we were to heavy for anyway so we made a conscious effort to make the next album much heavier and gloomier.
-Robert Garven, Diabolical Conquest interview
Question: What are your ten most valuable records from a collectors view?
My ten remaining sealed copies of the original Frost & Fire LP on Liquid Flames Records! I'm not sure how valuable they are
-Greg Lindstrom, interview
-Darkthrone, from their list of album recommendations in the booklet for the F.O.A.D. album.
The Tales that Speak of "Frost & Fire"
As co-founder and drummer of Cirith Ungol for 22 years I feel I need to respond to some of the reviews here.
A previous reviewer mentioned that "Frost & Fire" sounded thrown together. The real truth is that we had been in the band for 9 years already and "Frost & Fire" was our attempt to get "commercial" airplay and find success with what we considered some of our more accessable music and yes radio friendly music! When the local LA station KLOS played it once and considered it too heavy, we decided to go for broke with our second album and pulled out all the stops. I disagree with some of the reviewers and think Tim's singing is not only excellent here and that "Frost & Fire" has some of his best vocals. This album features his highest pitched and clearest singing. Anyone who does not call it sining has to compare it with some of todays death metal. "'Im Alive" was one of our all time best songs, which we started almost every set with. The LA Times said that Pearl Jams "Alive" was a blatant rip off of our song, which is debatable.
I also think the title track "Frost & Fire" is excellent with a great middle break and solo and that "Better off Dead" has a great bass line and some of Tim's greatest singing range. This is all said looking back with a historical view that only I of all the reviewers can comment on being there the whole time. Jerry's solos are amazing and his passing was very tragic and sad.
This album has to be listened to many times to appreciate the lyrics, songwriting and performance as a whole not separate parts and to understand as opposed to it being thrown together is was a calculated attempt to obtain a major label contract during a time that only bands with catchy songs that would get any radio airplay were signed. Although i think "King of the Dead" was more representative of the band I am most proud of this album because not only was it our first but it was graced by the unbelievable cover illustration of Michael Whelan's epic portrait of Elric of Melnibone holding Stormbringer high above his head. This was a dream of ours and after so many years of struggle it was our reality. And yes our music can never be worthy of this great artists work!
Considering we produced, self recorded and paid for the entire project and that we were one of if not the first independent band to put out their own album before the wave of indie productions during that time, I think "Frost & Fire" "King of the Dead" & "Servants of Chaos" are a mandatory listen.
That said "King of the Dead" is my favorite and the last album which we had total control over. I am proud that we are mentioned in the same breath as bands that were epic and hope you all appreciate what we were trying to acomplish at a time when only big label bands had any chance of distribution or airplay.
Unfortunately for you the listener you never got to hear the other 20 or so odd songs that never made it to print such as: "Half Past Human - A Quarter to Ape" & "Brutish Manchild" but then that is another story for another day............

Greg's lyrics on Cirith Ungol's Frost and Fire are very introspective, and I relate to them a lot. Maybe we've been through similar things growing up.

A fanvideo by Mÿche Worth:
The tales that speak of frost and fire
The Frost Monstreme and the Fire Divine
The frost preserves and the fire destroys
Like pouring rain on the sands of time
I feel it burning and I feel the freeze
The frost, the fire, it burns inpage of me
The tales that speak of frost and fire
The guardian angels and the demons of night
The power preserves and the Beast will destroy us
Like gathering darkness in the circle of light
I feel it burning and I feel the freeze
The frost, the fire, it burns inpage of me, yeah
I feel it burning and I feel the freeze
The frost, the fire, it burns inpage of me
The tales that speak of frost and fire
Tales of all the souls that fell
Words that burn and words that chill us
Like laughter kinding in the heart of Hell
I feel it burning and I feel the freeze
The frost, the fire, it burns inpage of me
It burns inpage of me, it burns inpage of me

I'm Alive" is a favourite of mine, because the music and lyrics of "I'm Alive" really combine to evoke a melancholy mood
-Greg Lindstrom, Headache interview, 2005
I shiver when I remember
The things that I have seen
I know the light, I know the Night
I have walked with things unseen
I have been a king invincible
I've been the poorest of the poor
I've pulled the mighty from their thrones
And laughed at Death's own door
'Cause I'm alive, I'm alive
I'm alive, I'm alive
I roamed the world in search of life
Death followed in my wake
I searched for truth, I want the truth
And learned more than I could take
I've walked the roads of mystery
And it's aged me much too soon
I've paid the piper and I've paid him well
But he still calls the tune
I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive
I shiver when I remember
The shadow of the past
The lonely ways, the lonely days
When every breath might be my last
I lost my heart, I lost my soul
By every hand betrayed
But I've still got strength, I've still got life
And that will never change
'Cause I'm alive, I'm alive
I'm alive, I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive

Lying awake in the dead of night
Listening to my heart beat away
Wishing I wasn't alone here tonight
But wishing just gets in the way
I just want, I just want a little fire [2x]
The night's so cold when you're all alone
At least it's always been cold to me
And the clock ticks away, ticks away, ticks away
And the clock settles in around me
I just want, I just want a little fire [2x]
You might be wondering just how it feels
Well I hope you never know
'Cause I know exactly how it feels
It's all I ever know
I just want, I just want a litte fire [4x]
Fire, fire

Maybe it's better him than me
A pretty picture but I don't wanna see
With different faces and different names
They all seem different but they're all the same
What does it take to get to you? [2x]
Look through me like I'm not there
You always act like you just don't care
You always see what you wanted to see
Why don't you take a better look at me?
What does it take to get to you? [6x]

This song has probably the bands most quoted lyrics; "I've got my rock 'n roll haircut /I've got my rock 'n roll jeans". Lindstrom's second favourite of this album after I'm Alive.
I think of Edge of a Knife as our Rockabilly Song. Ha! Don't forget the solo in this song is great!
-Robert Garven, Steel Conjuring interview, 2000
It seems I'm always frustrated
When I should be satisfied
But as long as I'm frustrated
I know I'm still alive
I've got 20/20 hindsight
But I won't live in the past
I like to look up at the sky
When I'm flat on my ass
Edge of a knife, edge of a knife
Maybe that's what they mean by real life
Edge of a knife, edge of a knife
Maybe that's what they mean by real life
I've got my rock 'n roll haircut
I've got my rock 'n roll jeans
Just to make me feel like
Someone I'd rather not be
I don't care if you laugh at me
It's better than beeing ignored
Anyway, I'm used to it
That's what fools are for
Edge of a knife, edge of a knife
Maybe that's what they mean by real life
Edge of a knife, edge of a knife
Maybe that's what they mean by real life
Edge of a knife, edge of a knife
Maybe that's what they mean by real life
Edge of a knife, edge of a knife
Maybe that's what they mean by real life
Maybe I gotta get hurt
Maybe that's what I need
'Cause I got music in my bloodstream
Sometimes I just can't seem to bleed
I don't care if you laugh at me
It't better than beeing ignored
Anyway, I'm used to it
That's what fools are for
Edge of a knife, edge of a knife
Maybe that's what they mean by real life
Edge of a knife, edge of a knife
Maybe that's what they mean by real life
Edge of a knife, edge of a knife
Maybe that's what they mean by real life
Edge of a knife, edge of a knife
Maybe that's what they mean by real life
Edge of a knife, edge of a knife
Maybe that's what they mean by real life
Edge of a knife, edge of a knife
Maybe that's what they mean by real life

Oh, there was a movie called "Better Off Dead" which also came out after the album.
-Robert Garven, german Scream Magazine 11/99
I have not seen this 1985 movie, but I guess it is not inspired by the song and that it has nothing to do with the song either.
I'm tired of beeing the odd man out
I speak with a whisper and feel with a shout
I feel out of tune, I feel out of key
I feel like I'm missing a part of me
I've got a lot on my head
And my condition's read
I think I'm better off dead
Some people say that lightning never strikes twice
But I've been hit more than once in my life
I've been taken in so many times
A thousand promises, a thousand lies
I've got a lot on my head
And my condition's read
I think I'm better off dead
Sometimes, sometimes
Sometimes I take a look at the world
And sometimes I take a look at the girls
I'm just a spectator, I don't get involved
I've got too many problems of my own to solve
I've got a lot on my head
And my condition's read
I think I'm better off dead
I've got a lot on my head
And my condition's read
I think I'm better off dead
Sometimes, sometimes

Even though it has lyrics, it is an instrumental. There are no vocals on this song! The original demo version of it had bass, drums and vocals, though.
It was a love song Greg wrote. The original (I have on my unreleased tapes) was the most unbelievable instrumental you can imagine. It didn't come out near as good on the LP. Greg had written the lyrics for it but we decided not to use them, there is not much mystery to this, but it is the most asked C.U. question ever.
-Robert Garven, Steel Conjuring interview, 2000
Fanvideo created by beyondtheveilofdeath, 2010:
I don't know how you really feel
I just know you've been hurt
Wish i could say what i really feel
But i know you need more than words
To say everything i wanted to say
I'd have to write a book
But you can say so much more
With just a signle look
Maybe tha'ts why, maybe that's why,
i love you...
Close my eyes and i see your face
My heart stars beating your name
Look in your eyes and i melt away
I know i'll never be the same
Now here's the moral of the story
I know it's easier said than done
Believe in your dreams, believe in yourself
No matter, no matter what comes
You've got the power, you've got the strength
I know you're gonna pull through
And just in case it matters
Remember that i believe in you

It's the ideal meat to include as part of a healthy and balanced diet.
