'Freedom of Speech' is the narrative that is vastly and quite pretentiously used by certain quarters, to not only validate, but justify and vindicate the sacrileges, profanities and religious blasphemies.
The notion of an 'absolute free speech' serves as the basic 'construct of interpretation' for the motives ahead of certain sentiments-injuring acts and the nefarious designs behind any hatred inflaming.
Now-a-days' radical debate, as well as a serious communal-issue of the day is, "…XYZ holds an 'absolute right' to free speech",or "…No compromises can be made on …ABC's 'freedom of expression'…" etc. These narratives are being narrated and re-narrated by many people so senselessly and inconsiderately, that it appears as if one has never paused for a moment and thought of the stark implications for what he or she is stating or asserting of.
So thoughtlessly, not only to the extents of public spheres, but also many of the so-called communal 'opinion-builders' are onto the 'dogma', that they aren't even aware of. More or less, completely side-tracking or ignoring the far-reaching corollary repercussions, the consequential upshots and the socio-moral reverberations associated therewith.
Does the 'free speech' notion hold an absolute value anywhere…? Even in the western culture…? Can 'freedom of expression' be meant for; over-riding the humane and ethical deeds—sabotaging the entire ethico-moral codes—bulldozing the whole cross-communal or inter-ethnic human values system…? These are some thorny questions posed over to the mind that holds some rationality, any sense of right and wrong, or at least, a more or less conscience or some scruples of righteousness within one's self.
Exercising 'free speech', that may ardently injure or sensitively indignant a certain ethnicity, is criminalized, in almost all western countries. Henceforth, the sacrileges and profanities crossing all the limits of ethical or moral codes, and even in most of the cases abolishing all humanity-based values, cannot be rationalized, by any means or on any account, to be permissible or tolerable to mutilate, harm and detriment the inter-ethnic peace of global communities by planting the seeds of hatred abhorrence or blasphemies.
There exists nowhere in the world where licenses are granted that one can flagrantly say and blatantly express whatever he or she likes to; but reasonably, there are certain limits that one is supposed to be within.
However, pretty conversely, the kind of the 'moral trait-outlook' manifested by certain vagrant quarters, on the face of 'free speech', is neither justifiable, nor explicable on the least of any of the moral, ethical, judicial or humanitarian accounts!
Advocating for an 'open license' to the 'free speech' and spreading the dogma-notion behind this, is nothing, but a clumsily and maladroitly 'disgraceful-enough' modality of ridiculous manifestations by deflated societies, having no acclimatization of moral perspectives.
While advocating the tarnished-hatred, apparently, the 'tender-keepers' of free speech, along with their biased and discriminatory partisan means, present certain devious and deceitful arguments in wrapped misconceptions and logical-fallacies. However, when it reaches to the end of the tether or the commonsense truss-leash, one can easily comprehend and realize the rationality-based questions that arise from such naive argumentative fallacies.
Now, for instance, lets examine that: are these reason-indexes actually so, as they are dogmatized to appear or opinionated to spread out? Do these jargons and verbiages certainly provide some justifiable grounds for a 'free speech' without any limits? With an absolute built-in value capable to bulldoze all other values..?..Especially when it comes to the sensitivities-based sentiments…?
These are not, but just some of the simplest questions out of an entire cluster of rationality – demanding enigma-paradoxes, that are serious-enough in their nature. Not only are questions enigmas, but, in a literal sense, these are the 'essential morality-probes' for a considerate mind that can hold to the state of affairs, when it comes to moral convictions. Henceforth, these 'probes' are to be dealt with great trepidations.
Today's talk of the town, "Pamela Geller has an 'absolute right' to free speech", is being repetitively narrated everywhere as senselessly as it could be and as thoughtlessly as it should be!
Not needed to be mentioned, Pamela Geller has an evident track-record for stoking up the 'flames of racial hate' and promoting cross-ethnic hatred content and abhorrence that is progressively proceeding towards austere hatred revulsions and animosity conflicts.
She has got notorious escalations in promoting ethnic hate through heavily funded networks of racial activism throughout the globe. No need to mention, Geller has long continued to push hatred, revulsive and rhetoric pomposity through her writings, magniloquence and a series of transit ads.
After having due considerations of Anders Behring Breivik's case (the Norwegian drastic radical, who in 2011, became responsible for murdering 76 persons during a shooting rampage, and cited Pamela Geller in his manifesto), the AFDI was labelled as a 'hate group' by the UK authorities.
The rational argumentative confrontation of an 'absolute free speech' by the NPA's anthropological analyst from SAARC region, Dr. Bareera N. B. has staunchly deplored, denounced and debunked, the shameful appalling behind the reprehensible defiance by AFDI's Pamela Geller, that she used to manifest in the name of free speech so far. All of this is nothing but Geller's cravings and fervidly eager desperateness, that is once again on board to gain 'cheap publicity' and attention of those who prefer to fill their heads and hearts with hatred contents.
Dr. Bareera N. B. is a post-doc anthropological researcher and an academic analyst on the subject. She currently serves as the UPC's chair in SAARC Post-Doc Academia. She is presently engaged in peace-conflict studies, as an external assessor of peace and counter-terrorism studies at National Post-doctoral Association USA.
aIn her conclusive remarks on free-speech dogma, says Dr. B.N.,"….These are the mind-sets, that are planting the seeds of terrorism by committing such acts that are not only disgraceful but essentially of an 'omni-injuring' nature in their own right and an 'omni-inflaming' potential within!"

Trish and Stacey met in a chat room while in the Bahamas for a photo shoot,
but neither of the 2 knew the real identity of their chatting partner. They
met in Stacey's room, while the other divas were out venturing the islands;
Trish and Stacey pleasured each other in Stacey's hotel room, in the
hallways, in the elevator, and all the way to Trish's room. But here they
were surprised by a couple of divas that arrived a little earlyţ
Chat Room Diaries Part 3
by The Ultimate Heel (email@example.com)
Trish and Stacy, bare naked under those expensive silk sheets that they
used to cover themselves to hide from Lita and Torrie much like Adam and Eve
did in the book of Genesis.
Trish and her leggy partner in sex, felt as small as Chyna's God-given
breasts, as Torrie and Lita stared at them with a smirk on their faces, which
really only lasted a few moments, but to the 2 new-found lovers it seemed
like forever.
Torrie finally broke the silence when she said, " So this is the reason
you 2 wanted to stay here at the resort."
Lita smiled as she concluded the same thing, but Trish to her defense
argued, " We didn't exactly know that we were going toţ do it."
Torrie acting like a prosecutor replied, "So both of you just decided not
to go with the rest of us, and then for some reason wound up in bed
Trish didn't know how to explain, and looked at Stacy, as to say Give Me
Some Help! Stacy whether she got the point or not said, "This is what
happened, last night both of us were in the same chat room, and coincidently,
we found each other and chatted privately. We decided to meet in our room
(referring to hers and Lita's room), the next night, and since it was the 2
of us chatting that's the reason we didn't go."
"Really", said Torrie, " you expect us to believe that you met in some chat
room, and Coincidently fucked each other."
"Well that's what happened", said Stacy.
Lita during this time couldn't help but remember that when last night when
she made it back to her room, she saw Stacy hurrying up to try and hide
something, but she didn't say anything then, but this time she wasn't going
to let it pass over. Lita looked at Stacy and said with confidence in her
tone, " Was that the reason you closed your lap-top, so quickly when I walked
in last night?"
Then Stacy, with a look of new hope, replied, "Yes, I didn't want you to
see what I was doing on there. That's exactly why. Torrie put 2 and 2
together and realized they were probably telling the truth and said, "So when
you found out that you were chatting with each other, who decided to do the
Wild Thing?"
Feeling more comfortable now, Trish answered, "I don't know it just
kinda... happened, ya know." Stacy, feeling this was a good time to turn the
tables, suddenly asked, "Why are you guys here, so early. We weren't
expecting you for another couple of hours?" Lita and Torrie looked at each
other, Lita nodded her head and lifted her shoulders as to say, There's No
Reason To Hold Back.
Torrie turned her head towards the others and said, "We set up the other
girls, so we could be alone and fuck!"
This brought a look of shock in Trish and Stacy's eyes. Stacy in a
confused voice replied, "Excuse me?"
Torrie went on explaining, "We had everything planned out, from yesterday
morning when, they said that we weren't shooting in 2 days. So we came up
with a full-proof plan to gather all the girls, go on an adventure, and then
disappear from the group, leaving us tons of time while they looked for us,
and that's what we did."
"Are you serious" replied Trish, "They might be still looking for you."
"They probably are, but even if they gave up, at least me and Torrie had
our chance to unravel some hidden treasures, like I see you guys have as
well," said Lita.
They all giggled, as they have just released their secrets. Stacy asked
them where the 2 of them went when they fled from the group. Torrie asked,
"Did you want to see it. It's great."
Trish and Stacy, without hesitation said, "Hell yeah!"
Without words, Trish and Stacy got out from under the sheets that were wet
from cum and the sweat of the nervous divas. As they were getting together,
Lita and Torrie caught glimpses of Trish and Stacy's undeniable hard-bodies,
as both their lips filled with moisture along with their "already tampered
with" pussies.
Finally both of them were ready to go. Trish, grabbed her briefcase with
her "Tools" inside, and caught up with the other's who were making their way
to the hall.
They all were chatting and sharing small talk, down the hall, as Torrie
hears a familiar voice. She told the other's to shhh for a second. She
listened closely and heard the voice of Mighty Molly getting really close.
Torrie figured she was coming from her room to keep looking for the "Lost"
So Torrie said, "Oh, we gotta go now. Let's take the stairs."
They all sprinted as fast as they could, much to the pleasure of anybody
who caught a glimpse of the beautiful ladies, and their gigantic, bouncing
tits. When they got down the stairs they ran through the back door, so they
wouldn't be seen by the divas. Lita pointed out that their car was in the
front of the resort, and that it was too dangerous. But then Trish saw a cab,
and called out, "Taxi". They all swiftly went over to the taxi van, which
comfortably fit a party of 4.
Torrie, asked the driver if he knew where Concrete Road was. He replied
yes, and drove off. Stacy asked Torrie how did they discover this place.
Torrie answered, "When I was a fitness model, one of the executives of the
"Fitness Magazine" asked me over to his place to discuss contracts, (Torrie
now whispering) but we did a little more than talk. After that he was hooked
on me, and said if I ever was in the Bahamas, I could use his place. So I
told Lita about it, and we went up there. He's not there though, but he
showed me his spare key, that's how we got in."
"Man, that's crazy. It's almost like a movie, or some "Internet Celebrity
Sex Story". They laughed at the joke, as they were getting close to the
place. Torrie continued to guide the driver to the house as Trish and Stacy
admired the scenery.
They paid the driver, and went towards the huge mansion of the executive.
The land was nothing but green and flower gardens with a beautiful fountain
in the front. Torrie headed for the fountain, and told the others to go wait
by the door. Torrie reached her arm in the water, pushed over a brick and
grabbed the key, that was hidden. She proceeded to the door, and with the
first look, Trish and Stacy's mouth dropped like they were about to suck a
huge cock. Torrie could see their amazement, so she gave them a tour like she
had for Lita before.
After walking up and down the stairs and seeing some very expensive
things, they all went to the apartment size kitchen. Trish put her "Tools"
down on the cabinet, and they all decided to go in the Jacuzzi. They made
their way through the clear glass doors of the kitchen that led outside. To
the humongous pool and a Jacuzzi that, massages your body with the Hott water
feeling out every inch of their celebrity figures. They all slipped out of
their clothes into their bathing suits which they wore under. Torrie and Lita
were used to the Hot temperatures as they had already tested the waters. But
it took Trish and Stacy a while to get totally comfy in the bubbly tub. Trish
sat opposite of Torrie, and Stacy opposite to Lita.
The 4 women just relaxed in the Jacuzzi, with their heads leaned back, on
the convenient head rest. Until Torrie took her beautiful shaven legs, and
started to rub her feet between Trish's partially crossed legs. Trish in a
little amazement, didn't want to cause a noise, and just waited as Torrie
smoothly rubbed her silky legs and feet further up and in between both
Trish's legs. As Torrie got close to Trish's "Stratus-Faction", she moaned a
Lita and Stacy both looked to see what was going on, but Torrie, acted
quickly and said slyly, "You thirsty Trish. It sounds like your throat is
dry." Trish, stared into Torrie's eyes, and knew what she was doing and
played along.
"Yeah my throat is a little dry. I'll go get some drinks." Torrie said,
"I'll go help you." The 2 fixed their suits as the water glistened, and added
extra sexiness to them as the water slowly fell off. They both walked out of
site and into the kitchen.
Stacy looked at Lita saying, "That was a moan if I ever heard one."
Lita laughed, as Stacy turned her head to see if they were still in site.
Lita then came over to Stacy, and asked how long her legs were, while Lita
was standing in between them. Stacy, not answering the question said, "How
big are your tits?"
Lita smiled, and then dove in for the kill. The moist lips of the 2 met
with passion as their wet tongues flopped around as they swapped saliva. Lita
sat down right beside her, as they continued kissing, but now sideways.
Stacy's left hand found it's way down Lita's fit stomach and further down and
to the side until she squeezed the life out of her ass. Lita's right hand
went to Stacy's back, and Lita fiddled with Stacy's bra until she got it off.
Stacy, took her hand away from her ass, and took the rest of her bra off,
showing her small but nice and natural beauties. Stacy began to climb onto
Lita's lap, with her knees on the comfortable, built in seat in the Jacuzzi.
Lita took a mouthful of Stacy's right tit. Stacy screamed as Lita sucked
harder. Stacy said, "Suck it hardţ Ohhhhh... c'mon Lita.. ooooh like that!"
In the kitchen Trish and Torrie heard as Torrie said, "Well that didn't
take long." Trish was filling the 4 glasses up with expensive champagne,
while Torrie saw Trish's briefcase that she brought. Torrie opened it because
it was unlocked. She was amazed at the variety, but went for the 6 inch dildo
made for ass-fucking. Torrie snuck up behind Trish, pulled her thong to the
side and jamming it right into a surprised Trish.
Trish dropped the bottle and 2 of the drinks, screaming at the top of her
lungs, "Fuu..ckkţ. ooh myţ God! Tears almost coming to her eyes, as Torrie,
kept on stroking the life-like dildo in to the crack of Trish's perfect ass.
Torrie then slipped the dildo out of Trish's ass, and told her to meet her
with the other 2 in the tent by the pool. Torrie dropped the dildo into the
case, and picked it up on her way outside. Trish was overtaken by what just
happened to her and she had to catch her breath. Torrie introduced the tent
to both Lita and Stacy, telling them that this is where "Jack" the executive
fucked her when she was here. Trish finally gathered herself, and walked out
to find the tent.
She saw a path behind the pool and followed it. The path led her to a 25
ft. high and 30 ft. wide tent that was creatively put up. As Trish walked in
she noticed a green lighting that made the inside glow like it was the year
2000 all over again. Trish noticed that inside the floor was made up of lots
of pillow cushions to provide comfort. But the main event to Trish as she
steadily looked forward, was Torrie's firm, juicy, good enough to eat
sculpture, and the matching pair of balloons, topped with nipples that Trish
couldn't wait to taste. But as Trish sexually walked towards Torrie, Stacy
and Lita came from out the dark, and grabbed her.
Once Trish knew who they were she stopped struggling to get loose. Torrie
stood up, slipped off her white bra, and threw it towards the crowd. Torrie
moved towards Trish as if she was the queen of the world. She never took her
eyes off of Trish, as she now stood directly in front of her.
Torrie, with a seductive and almost pure evil voice said, "I see the way
you gawk at my breasts in the locker rooms, out in the ring, at the photo
shoots, and just now when you waltzed in here. I know you want my titties in
your mouth Trish, so I'm gonna give you everything that your heart desires."
With that, Torrie nodded her head towards Lita and Stacy. They proceeded
to bring Trish forward, stuffing Trish's face in between Torrie's tits like
Rock stuffed Vince's face into Rikishi's.. ya know. Stacy and Lita let go of
the tight grip only holding her a little allowing Trish to pleasure Torrie.
Trish didn't disappoint as she licked Torrie's oversized tits. She looked up
at Torrie and said with a horny voice, "How many licks does it take to get to
the center of the pop?"
Before Torrie could answer, Trish wanted to find out as she would have
sucked the milk out of Torrie's nipples if it was there. Stacy and Lita saw
this and decided they wanted to go back at it again. So they let Trish go,
Stacy walked around and over to Lita who was laying down with her thong
completely off to be taken.
Stacy wasted no time, went down to her knees, bent over, and ate Lita out
like a 3-course meal. Stacy tasted Lita's running juices, as you hear Stacy
say "umm" inside Lita's pussy. Lita massaged her big breasts as she moaned
and groaned, feeling what she felt earlier with Torrie.
Trish was still sucking on Torrie's fully erect nipples, while at the same
time pulling Torrie's thong down unveiling her nude and partially shaven
pussy. Torrie grabbed Trish by the arms, and threw her on to the ground.
Trish, turned on by the force, slipped off her thong and her bra being the
last diva to be nude. Torrie went over and grabbed Trish's "Tools", and
brought them over. She got out the 2-headed dildo, and shoved into Trish's
pussy, as Trish was laying down on her back. Torrie jumped on to the dildo
herself while holding Trish's legs in the air. Then Torrie bounced up and
down, and every time she came down pleasure filled the pussy of both of them
together as they screamed louder and louder, harder and harder, and Torrie
bouncing higher and higher, they both came.
Torrie's juices slipped down the pipe and into Trish's pussy, Torrie let
Trish's legs down, and went to the side of Trish where they both pounded the
dildo, while kissing and caressing each other's tits.
Stacy, still eating Lita out, took her index finger and stuck in Lita's
pussy at the same time. Lita almost ready to let it go said, "Ooooooh Stacy,
Ffffuuţccckkkk me. Harder Stac', Fuck me harder Stac'."
Lita's cum ran down Stacy's finger, and into her mouth, as Stacy pulled
her finger and tongue out and told Lita to turn over. Lita obeyed and Stacy
spread the ass cheeks of Lita and went deep sea diving, in Lita's ass. Lita
loved the feeling of a wet, soft, and juicy tongue moving up and down her
ass. Stacy feeling herself about to cum, stuck her fingers up her pussy and
felt her juices fall on her own hands.
Lita, although she loved the licking, stopped Stacy and turned around to
tell her something. She whispered in Stacy's ear, "I think we shouldţ
And after she told Stacy her naughty little plan, Lita licked Stacy's
ear-lobe as Stacy moaned upon touch. Lita and Stacy crawled over to Trish and
Torrie, and Lita said, "I'm sorry to interrupt, but I think I have something
that we can all enjoy at once." Lita didn't say another word as she waited
patiently for Trish and Torrie to come back to earth and let Lita guide them
through her sexual scheme. Trish and Torrie crawled towards Stacy and Lita.
Stacy was lying on her back and Lita explained what she had in her mind
saying, "Torrie, lay on your back right beside Stacy," and she did.
Lita then told Trish to go around by Stacy's head, and lay on her face,
and eat out Torrie who's parallel to Stacy. Lita called this the "Geometrical
Position", because Stacy and Torrie were parallel while Trish cut through
them like a transversal. Trish got into position, as Stacy started to taste
the pussy that she had eaten earlier that night. Trish did like wise as she
returned Torrie's favor and locked in on Torrie's insides. Lita was between
Stacy long legs, and started to suck on Stacy's toes, as Stacy moaned. Lita
worked her way up Stacy's feet, and then up her ankles, pressing her wet
mouth on Stacy's leg as she moved up the long gorgeous leg of Stacy. Lita
gave Stacy some pussy pleasure while venturing her legs, by taking her two
fingers and rubbing it in Stacy's vagina.
Lita finally made her way up to Stacy's pussy and tasted Stacy, something
that she always wanted to do. They stayed in this orgy position, for about
10 minutes, changing position 1 time. They came multiple times, as they
screamed, moaned, and groaned as their pussy's were met with lesbian like
They rested for a while, talking about how this is the greatest night they
have ever had. Then they thought about the other divas, and decided they
should probably go before the police start to panic. So they all gathered
their under clothes and went into the kitchen to put on their outside
clothes. Torrie heard some walking and went to investigate, and "Jack" the
executive, turned her around, not knowing it was her. He was surprised, but
was welcoming of her presence, and then the other 3 walked in the living room
where they were, and this startled Jack. But Torrie let him know that these
were her friends and co-workers in the WWF.
Jack noticed Trish as they had met once before, he also recognized the
other's because he watches wrestling. He knew exactly what was going on, and
wasted no time begging them to stay over for the night. But Torrie told him
no, we have to get back to the resort really quick. She then promised him if
he gave them a ride, then not only will she come back, but that they would
all come back, and show him the time of his life. He agreed as Torrie gave
him some influence by grabbing on to his "8 inch hard-on. He couldn't help
but agree as they all went outside and headed for the resort!!!

1. In Luke 24 the Resurrected Jesus is walking along a road with two travelers. After they tell him about the events of the previous week, which he was obviously privy to, verse 27 says: "And beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, he interpreted to them in all the scriptures the things concerning himself." A lot of times this verse is used to show how all of scripture points to Jesus. Every verse in the Old Testament is pointing us to Jesus. But have you ever read the OT and wondered how in the heck some of those stories could be pointing to Jesus? Here's a fantastic article that explains how.
2. Here's a great article from Tim Challies about the strange dichotomy joy and grief that comes with the confession of sin. We are grieved by our sins, but overjoyed that they are done away with through the gospel. Very good stuff.
3. A lot of skeptics will dismiss the authority of the Bible because it supposedly "condones slavery." Well, that's not a valid objection. Why not? Here's why.
4. Did you make a resolution to read through the whole Bible in a year? Don't forget this important word of advice.

|Every year the factory donates food and clothes to the Cambodian Red Cross and this year there was to be a small ceremony to mark the occasion, hosted by the Society's President at their H.Q. We were invited to make up the party. I asked if it was formal and was told that I would need to tuck my shirt in for this one! The factory boss appeared in suit and tie and then it dawned on us that we were meeting the Prime Minister's wife. There was the usual waiting around when we arrived, but after a while our group was ushered into Mrs Hun Sen's office where she thanked Mr Lim for his continued support whilst video cameras whirred and flashguns popped. Tea was served and we had time for a sip before heading downstairs to the hall which had been set up for the donation photo-shoot. Sacks of rice and boxes of T-shirts adorned the stage and the donor's name was written large on the wall behind. Ming and I lingered on the edge of the group, hoping that we would be cropped out of the final pictures. The donation was made and a framed certificate presented, and suddenly it was all over - a quick handshake and outof the door.

Both New York State Governor Andrew Cuomo, and Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker took office on January 1st of 2011. In their respective "State of the State" addresses:
Democratic Gov. Cuomo promised to take on the state's huge financial problems stating "there is no more time to waste, it is time for deeds, not words, and results, not rhetoric. It is time for a bold agenda and immediate action. There is no tomorrow, and there are no more baby steps, my friends." He also intends to approach his job with "constructive impatience, shrinking the size of the sprawling state government and represent the interests of those who have lost faith in Albany."
Republican Gov. Walker promised to "right-size state government by ensuring government is only providing the essential services needed that taxpayers can afford. Priority number one, pass a series of reforms and unleash the power of economic freedom with strict adherence to justice, moderation, temperance, frugality and virtue."
Campaign rhetoric? Hardly, in the case of Governor Scott Walker. Every major aspect of his message has transformed state's politics and practices yielding huge logical, and necessary changes across a wide spectrum of issues. In contrast, we have in office a liberal governor wrapped in 'progressive' cloth who (once the hype is discounted) has proven to be a divisive leader with little needed reform evident after six years in office.
Twenty-two day's after taking office the state legislature approved a series of Walker-backed bills, the largest of which would cut taxes for businesses. Six months later, the legislature also approved the 2011 Wisconsin Act 10, "An act relating to: state finances, collective bargaining for public employees, compensation and fringe benefits, the state civil service system, and the Medical Assistance Program."
Thirty specific topics listed to reduce a $3.6 billion budget deficit. Those getting primary attention were:
- Pension Contributions: State and local government workers (members of the Wisconsin Retirement System) would be required to contribute to their health care plans and pensions.
- Collective Bargaining: Limits bargaining, for most public employees to base wages, while letting school districts negotiate pay with individual teachers based on criteria other than years of service and education level.
- Voting: Requires unions to hold yearly votes to continue to represent workers while prohibiting, automatic dues deductions from pay checks.
On May 25, 2011, Governor Walker also signed into law Act 23 requiring all voters to show a government issued ID before casting a ballot.
In announcing these changes the governor stated "he was not trying to break up the public sector unions, noting that Wisconsin state government employees would retain the protections of civil service laws. He considers "asking employees to pay half of the national average for health care benefits a modest request." He further added, "collective bargaining changes would save Wisconsin school districts an estimated $30 million. Quite a start for his first year in office.
Within days of approval, all hell would break loose at the state Capital. Union leaders were prepared to accept financial concessions, but would not agree to limitations of collective bargaining rights, all 14 Democratic senators fled the state to prevent passage of the bill, unfair labor practices were filed, court challenges issued and overturned, and after 17 brutal months of nonstop protests Governor Walker survived a recall election, the first to do so in U.S. history. In July of 2014, the Wisconsin Supreme Court ruled Act 10 constitutional, and in March of 2015, the Supreme Court ruled in favor of the new stricter ID law.
While obviously not a panacea, Act 10's collective bargaining reforms have allowed the state to balance the budget, while opening up employee's health insurance to competitive bidding, and reducing long-term pension liabilities. Act 10 is one of the most successful public policy idea adopted in recent memory, and from a financial and common sense standpoint probably the most important change in the administration of any state government seen in decades.
Meanwhile, back here in New York ……..

Trinity Ventures: Passion As a Strategic Plan
Page 1 of 1
Can passion make sense as an investment strategy? Menlo Park's Trinity Ventures thinks so.
It could make a lot of sense, especially amid today's glut of venture capital where investors frequently resemble a mob of Cosmos-crazed TV addicts lurching down the i-way mumbling, "Billions and billions and billions." With every month setting a new record for fundraising, all too many VCs seem to have no more strategy than "Raise a helluva lot of money and spend it really quick and go raise a lot more."
Trinity Ventures, which closed its $300 million Fund VII in October believes that investing "passionately" and concentrating its efforts makes a lot more sense than the wretched excess that seems to have washed over the so much of the industry. The fund was raised in about two weeks and was oversubscribed by $100 million.
"Because of our ten-year history in investing in consumer brands, we have always felt it was important to find those companies that differentiate themselves through quality of their products and service," said Trinity General Partner Augustus O. "Gus" Tai. "That's why we invested in companies like Starbucks and Jamba Juice. Through those investments, we know that passion is important. We learned that if you could have a passionate relationship with consumers and deliver on the promise -- no, make that over-deliver -- then they are willing to pay for higher levels of quality and service and indeed are happy to do so."
As a result, Tai said Trinity developed a set of categories in which consumers feel passionately about the products and services offered, and then quickly funded as many congruent plays as they could find including: kids, weddings, cars, diamonds, adventure sports equipment.
It's also no accident, Tai said, that these areas "can drive higher ticket expenditures with higher gross margins. That's why we funded companies like BabyCenter (acquired by eToys) -- there's hardly anything people feel more passionate about than their babies."
Tai should know: his wife Anna gave birth to fraternal twins, Austin and Olivia, on Nov. 12, the day after his interview with VC Watch. He is now learning how passionate a new parent can get for just a few minutes of sleep, one of the few things e-commerce can't deliver.
But before his bout with sleep deprivation Tai told VC Watch that Trinity's other big-ticket, high-margin, passionate investments include: iMotors (profiled by VC Watch Nov. 3), wedding site, Della and James, diamond e-tailer Blue Nile, the e-nachronistic antique's site, Circline, and adventure gear site, Planet Outdoors.
Passion, according to Tai, increases the willingness to pay more, which means that these investments "don't have the problem of some of the e-commerce companies out there that have an average gross price of $20 and a gross margin of $ 2 or $3 and a cost of customer acquisition of $30 or $40. When you wrap these economics up with operating costs, they never pay off."
Tai said that Trinity's partners are also passionate about the companies they invest in. "Since all of us have operating experience, we understand and appreciate how hard it is to launch a new company." He said that unlike some VCs where partners sit on eight or ten boards, Trinity restricts each partner to five or six, thus making sure they have the bandwidth to pitch in actively.

Boulder County sheriff's officials say they believe a 64-year-old man died this morning after intentionally setting his vehicle on fire while parked on a dirt road near the Boulder Rifle Club north of Boulder.
Sheriff"s dispatchers received a 911 call about a vehicle fully engulfed in flames near the shooting club, in the 4900 block of North 26th Street, north of Boulder, just before 9 a.m. today.
Firefighters from the Boulder Rural Fire Department responded and quickly extinguished the blaze, only to discover charred human remains in the driver's seat, according to sheriff's officials. The vehicle had been completely destroyed.
Investigators from the sheriff's office and the Boulder County Coroner's Office have opened an investigation into the death. Through initial investigation, sheriff's officials said, it's believed the remains were of a 64-year-old Boulder man who "intentionally started the blaze."
No foul play is suspected, sheriff's officials said.
The fire remains under investigation by Boulder Rural Fire, in partnership with Boulder County's Multi-Agency Fire Investigation Team, which also is working with sheriff's and coroner's investigators to determine the circumstances surrounding the fire and death.
The coroner's office will confirm and release the identity of the person who died after next of kin are notified, and ultimately will rule on the cause and manner of his death.

In his opening remarks, Pham Hong Thai, head of the INAS, said that the 2018 forum was a continuation of the achievements of the two previous forums and expanded the scope of discussion to connect the participation of delegates from the Mekong sub-region countries. Cooperation between the Republic of Korea and Vietnam as well as Mekong sub-regional countries were among topics discussed at the Mekong-Republic of Korea Peace Forum. Source: vovtv.vov.vn It was aimed at strengthening the cooperation between the countries for the development of peace and prosperity, he stated. According to Nguyen Thi Tham, from the institute, the RoK considers Vietnam a key partner in President Moon Jae-in "new southern policy". "With its special geographic location, Vietnam plays an important role in cooperation policy of the RoK in the region," she said. It was necessary to boost bilateral cooperation in the context of the implementation of the new southern policy which focuses on Southeast Asia, she added. This idea was also shared by Kwon Yul from Korea Institute for International Economic Policy.

Dear Parents Campaign
The Dear Parents Campaign, part of the Dear World Campaign, is an innovative new approach to dissuade parents from using physical discipline and encourage them to use more effective forms of discipline. A vast body of research has shown a clear correlation between physical discipline and aggression, poor relationships with peers and parents, and other behavioral problems. Physical discipline has also been shown to be less effective in the long run than other forms of discipline and can lead to worse forms of abuse. Despite these facts, physical discipline remains widely practiced and large seen as acceptable by the American public.
The Dear Parents Campaign conducted by NOCAC and the research team of Professor Catherine Taylor of Tulane University, who has researched attitudes towards physical discipline, has adopted marketing principles to generate messages to reduce the use of physical discipline. After reviewing the literature regarding interventions shown to be effective in reducing physical abuse, physical discipline, and factors that contribute to its use, NOCAC and Professor Taylor's team has created messages designed to dissuade parents from using physical discipline by challenging common notions held by those who favor physical discipline, encouraging them to control their anger, giving alternatives to physical discipline, and showing the benefits of these alternatives. These messages were written on signs held by children, parents, and professionals such as pediatricians and religious leaders supportive of the cause. We plan to test these messages with focus groups to find the most effective images to reduce the use of physical discipline.

MADISON, N.J. - All of the Landmark spring sports were in action this past week resulting in 14 student-athletes earning recognition as Landmark Players of the Week. The Landmark Player of the Week selections are made by the Landmark Conference office.
Gregg Steinman helped power Moravian to a 4-1 week, including a three-game sweep of its opening Landmark series against Catholic. The senior hit .765 for the week with 13 hits in 17 at-bats. He had a pair of extra base hits with two doubles, and also drove in eight runs and score five times while drawing one walk. He had at least two hits in four of five games, and went 9-for-11 in the weekend series with Catholic.
USMMA senior Andy Martin did not allow a run over 10 innings of work in a pair of appearances this weekend. He helped the Mariners claim a series win in the team's Landmark opener, scattering seven hits and striking out two in a complete-game shutout in the opener against Landmark foe Susquehanna. Earlier in the week he struck out two in three innings of relief work while allowing no runs on two hits against William Paterson.
Men's Lacrosse:
Drew's Andrew Somps provided significant offensive punch as the Rangers won a pair of games to open the season 5-0 for the first time in program history. He had a hand in half the team's goals in a 10-9 overtime win over Susquehanna to open conference play as he scored three times and passed out two assists. Earlier in the week he scored four times and again had two assists in a win over Southwestern (Texas). For the week he scored seven goals on 13 shots and totaled 11 points. He also added five ground balls and one caused turnover.
Ben Worthington helped Scranton improve to 3-1 in the early season with a strong effort in goal in a non-conference win over Lycoming. The sophomore recorded six saves while surrendering only nine goals, for a .400 save percentage in the match. He also caused three turnovers from his goalie spot, and added seven ground balls to the defensive effort.
Women's Lacrosse:
Aileen Musynske's offense helped Drew win a trio of matches to claim the Spring Fling Championship in West Palm Beach, Florida this past week. The senior scored 13 goals, including six in the championship match as the Rangers outlasted Nazareth 19-13. She also had three goals in a win over Mt. St. Vincent at the event, and four goals in the opening win over SUNY-Potsdam. She also passed out one assist in each game. She added eight ground balls, four caused turnovers and a pair of draw controls over the two matches, while piling up 16 points.
Susquehanna goalkeeper Emily Stankaitis earns the honor for the second time in as many weeks after two more solid outings. The junior stopped 25 shots for the week, seven in a win over Marymount and then 18 in a victory over Alvernia. She allowed a total of 17 goals for an 8.50 goals against average on the week, and produced a .595 save percentage. She also contributed three ground balls for the defense as Susquehanna remained unbeaten on the season.
Nina Curto powered the Catholic offense in a 3-1 week for the Cardinals. She knocked out seven hits in 11 at-bats for a .636 batting average and a .909 slugging percentage as three of the seven hits went for extra bases. She had a pair of three hit games over the weekend, and also scored three runs with four RBI over the four games.
Christine Capalbo was a perfect 4-0 in four starts in the circle for Scranton, including a win to help the Royals earn a split in their Landmark opener. The senior tossed four complete games totaling 27 innings while allowing only six earned runs for a 1.56 ERA on the week. She fanned 16 hitters while walking just four during the period and allowed only two runs on six hits with four strikeouts in the victory over Drew in the Landmark contest. She didn't allow more than two earned runs in any of her four outings.
Men's Tennis:
Tim McGurrin collected three wins in singles and doubles matches this week, including a sweep in the team's Landmark opener. He posted singles victories at his first singles spot against Landmark foe Goucher as well as against Westminster and Gettysburg. He also had doubles wins at second doubles against those same foes, and finished the week with a 6-2 overall record.
Women's Tennis:
Freshman Megan Azzalina is off to a strong start in her college career as she earned nine total wins for Scranton this past week. She was a perfect 5-0 in singles action at sixth singles for the Royals, including a win to help the Royals pull out a 5-4 win over Goucher in their Landmark opener. She also was a perfect 4-0 in doubles action at third doubles this past week to produce nine wins total with no losses.
Men's Outdoor Track & Field:
Jack Iosue opened the outdoor season with a strong effort for Juniata at the Dr. Jack M. Toms Open hosted by Lynchburg College. He won the javelin competition at the event with a best throw of 199' 6" a mark that would have ranked 18th in Division III in 2011 and would also rank as an NCAA Championship qualifying performance.
Ceth Parker enjoyed a strong performance for Juniata to open the outdoor season. The senior placed third in the 1,500 at the Dr. Jack M. Toms Open at Lynchburg, running a personal-best time of 4:01.63. That mark would have been the fastest in the conference in last year's outdoor season, and is just 1.6 seconds off the Juniata record.
Women's Outdoor Track & Field:
Kristyn Ginter picked up a win for Juniata at the Dr. Jack M. Toms Open at Lynchburg this past weekend. Ginter opened the outdoor season with a win in the javelin, recording a winning throw of 115' 10" and ranked better than any throw she produced last season. It would have ranked as the third best effort in the conference in the 2011 outdoor season.
Katrina Woods opened the outdoor season with a pair of personal bests for Juniata at the Dr. Jack M. Toms Open. She won the 1,500 at the meet, running a time of 4:48.72 which missed the Juniata record by just .60 seconds. She also set a new personal best with her time of 2:27.18 in the 800, which earned her a 10th-place finish.

The city's homeless shelters are a last resort for many New Yorkers, but they're attracting an increasing number of people from out of town.
Roughly 1 in 6 adult couples and 1 in 10 families with kids who enter the shelters gave a previous address from outside the five boroughs, records show.
In fiscal 2012, just 8.6 percent of couples in shelters said they were not from the city.
As of the first half of fiscal 2015, that figure was on pace to double to nearly 17 percent, according to Department of Homeless Services data.
The percentage of out-of-town families with kids also nudged up over the same period, from 9.2 to 11.1 percent.
"The huge social-service cuts and economic constraints we've seen in the rest of the country mean we're a pretty good place to come for a lot of reasons," said Nicole Gelinas, a senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute, who first noticed the upswing.
"If you want to make money panhandling on the street, we have more density than anyplace else, we have more tourists than anyplace else," she added. "If you're looking for a job or a new start, this is the best place to do it."
New York City is also one of the lone municipalities that has a right-to-shelter law, which guarantees — with only a few exceptions — access to taxpayer-funded accommodations.
However, a host of recent audits has demonstrated that shelters are typically far from hospitable places to live.
One 35-year-old homeless man told The Post Tuesday that he came to the city five days ago from Maine to be closer to his 4-year-old daughter and was aware of the free-shelter offer.
"I thought, I could be homeless in a country town where there ain't nothing, or homeless in New York City," said the man, who declined to be identified and is hoping to land a job. "I found a bunch of rooms that are $150-$200 a month.
It's just a matter of getting that first little bit of money."

- Circle Drawing Task
The present study assessed brain activation measured by functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) in which subjects perform two types of hand motor tasks: a finger tapping task and circle drawing task. For both experiments we employed 24-channel NIRS system covering the left hemisphere (Fig. 1(a)) The typical time course in oxygenated hemoglobin concentration (oxyHb) and deoxygenated hemoglobin concentration (deoxyHb) are shown in Fig. 2. In finger-tapping tasks, four right-handed subjects performed right hand finger tapping at a rate of approx. 3 Hz paced by a metronome. Subjects performed 12 or 15 trials in which a trial consists of 10-s rest, 20-s finger tapping movement, 30-s rest and about 180-s of inter-task intervals. Changes in oxyHb and deoxyHb were measured at a sampling period of 130-ms. Also changes in the angular velocity of finger tapping, as a measure of the movement smoothness, were measured. Significant decrease in oxyHb and the angular velocity over time were observed, while those transitions further exhibited significant correlation at the channels covering SMA, the pre-motor area (PMA) and PFC (Fig. 1(b)). In circle drawing tasks, six right-handed subjects (males from 22 to 24 years old) performed circle drawing with right hand. Subjects were instructed to trace around a template circle at the frequency of 0.667 Hz. All subjects performed four trials where each consists of 10-s rest, 30-s circle drawing, 30-s rest and about 180-s intervals. We calculated a spatial error as a measure of task performance which is derived from the trajectory deviated from the template circle. We found that oxyHb as well as error rate were decreased over time, with those transitions further be significantly correlated at the channels covering PFC and M1 (Figure 1(c)).
In summary, this paper reports our empirical results using the two types of hand motor tasks. The experimental results indicated the task-related activity observed in NIRS signals. A previous fNIRS study using hand motor tasks showed similar results including decreased pattern of hemodynamics in SMA [1], whereas further investigation will be desired that may allows to estimate precise cortical functions reflecting motor behaviors.

However, as a dog owner you will know that in some situations, there simply isn't an alter- native. The retractable leash is one of curli's rst products. When we needed a decent retractable leash ourselves, we trawled the specialist shops but found nothing suitable. We were espe- cially disappointed by the designs on o er. That's why we created our own simple canvas one. The shape and design of the retractable leash is as small as possible in terms of ergonomics, so that the product is also as light as possible.
The result - a compact leash with maximum freedom of movement for your dog.

Courts in Minnesota usually only have power over people and things in Minnesota. This power is called jurisdiction.
If the respondent was served outside of the State of Minnesota, or if the respondent could not be found and was served by publication or other special service, the Minnesota court might be limited to making only the following decisions:
- Dissolve the marriage
- Give custody and parenting time rights of any children who are under the court's jurisdiction, or
- Award the ownership of property located in Minnesota.
When the respondent is served in another state, a separate child support proceeding can be started with the help of the county support enforcement agency and the county attorney. In this proceeding, the Minnesota court tells the court in the other state that a parent who lives in the other state owes child support.

Johnny Depp Allegedly Severed Fingertip Amid Fight with Amber Heard
A new photo has emerged that allegedly shows Johnny Depp's severed fingertip following a heated argument with his estranged wife Amber Heard.
In the gruesome photos, which were obtained by TMZ, a doctor is seen holding what the site claims is Depp's hand as the actor's butchered finger is examined.
Depp, 53, reportedly suffered the injury in March 2015 while he and Heard, 30, were living in Australia during his shoot for Pirates of the Caribbean – just one month after the couple got married.
According to TMZ, Depp sliced off the tip his finger on a piece of glass when he allegedly smashed several bottles and windows during an argument with Heard. After the injury, the actor allegedly dipped his severed finger in a jar of blue paint Heard had in their home and wrote various words on a mirror including "Billy Bob" and "Easy Amber."
Depp allegedly accused the actress of cheating on him with Billy Bob Thornton, something she adamantly denied. Heard and Thornton starred together in the still-unreleased thriller London Fields.
A Thornton source tells WHO: "Billy Bob definitely, absolutely did not have an affair with Amber."
Reps for Depp and Heard could not be immediately reached for comment.
In March 2015, according to multiple news outlets, Depp injured his hand while in Australia filming Pirates and traveled back stateside for surgery.
The photos, which are reportedly part of Heard's domestic violence case against Depp, come just days after a video emerged apparently showing the actor yelling, drinking and slamming cabinets in a kitchen during a fight with Heard, while the actress videotaped the argument. The reason for the outburst is unclear.
In court documents responding to Heard's initial request for a restraining order, Depp's attorney, Laura Wasser, alleged that Heard "is attempting to secure a premature financial resolution by alleging abuse."
