Our attitude about poverty
I recently wrote a column suggesting that as Christians we could a better job finding ways to collectively provide assistance to the least of these among us. The responses were swift and angry. I was accused of distorting the Bible in order to advance a liberal socialist agenda.
I thought I was just quoting Jesus.
Then I wrote a column suggesting that the charitable impulse that appears each Christmas is an attitude that should characterize the Christian life year round.
The responses were swift and angry, again. This time I was accused of distorting the Bible in order to advance a liberal agenda that trapped the poor in cycles of poverty rather than actually helping them.
Again, I thought I was just quoting Jesus.
Why all this anger about helping the poor? Why are the least of these in our midst regularly singled out for scorn and blame?
Obviously some poverty is the result of poor decisions. There are those who do not handle their finances wisely or become involved in self destructive behaviors and poverty is the result.
But some of the poor in our state and in our world are children. It's not their fault that they live in Alabama's Black belt, or have mothers with no training and have to subsist on minimum wages. It's not their fault that there is no health care for them. And it's not their fault that the school they will eventually attend is so inadequately funded that their chance of getting a good education is all but null and void.
Certainly there are those who work the system in order to slide by on the good graces of others. They are able bodied, but choose not to work, preferring for some unknown reason to live on the margins of society.
But some of the poor are elderly. They worked a lifetime earning meager wages and now barely survive on social security.
Some of the poor would go to work today, but there are no jobs where they live. There are pockets of Alabama, and in other parts of the country, where unemployment is in double digits. To sneer at these people and tell them they are lazy or useless, is a level of cruelty difficult to understand.
And it is especially difficult to understand coming from Christians. Jesus said that we would one day be judged by how we treated the poor, the sick, the imprisoned, and so on. You would think the fear of judgment alone would prod us to be more caring and compassionate to the less fortunate around us.
But Jesus also taught us to love our neighbors. Not just the neighbors that we like to love, but the neighbors who are in need. The Good Samaritan is our role model for how to treat those whose lives have been turned upside down by circumstances they have no control over.
Jesus also said that the poor would always be with us. Some have wanted to make this mean that Jesus was cynical about ending poverty, but that's not the case. He was quoting Deuteronomy 15 where it reads, "since there will never cease to be some in need on the earth, open your hand to the poor and needy neighbor in your land."
Society at large may harbor negative attitudes toward the poor in our midst, but followers of Jesus do not have the luxury of such feelings.
Of course, I'm just quoting Jesus, again.

Ron Burgundy Joined An Actual Newscast In North Dakota Last Night
"Are you married? Well, I am, so don't get any ideas."
1. Anchorman 2 star Will Ferrell dropped by a Bismarck, N.D., newscast as Ron Burgundy last night to help deliver the evening's news and make things generally awkward.
3. Anchor Amber Schatz managed to keep her cool while Ferrell was predictably silly on air.
4. "Amber, you look lovely tonight. Are you married?" he asked Schatz. "Well, I am, so don't get any ideas," he added.
5. "Last time I saw you, you were a lot heavier," he told KXMB-TV's weatherman, Jared Piepenburg.
6. "How long did it take you to grow that bad boy?" reporter Jon Schaeffer asked Ferrell about his mustache. "This? About 20 minutes."
7. Stay classy, North Dakota.

4 stars for its practical, informative & easy use; the only negative is the first two pages.
Con: the book started with "before you begin" instructions to go to a blog before reading, then had a promotional advertisement. I really like this author, so I persevered; otherwise, I would have closed the book on page 2 for cheesiness. So read the book, but skip the first two pages.
{I was given a complimentary copy in exchange for my honest review of this product}
To be very clear I received this book in return for an honest review, I do not review books that have little value, this one does, get it and act on it!
This book is thorough, gives very specific step-by-step instructions on how to action the advice given and even additional references if you need to dig more deeply. Some of the strategies may seem tedious and time-consuming at first but it's worth it in the long run.
In the past I've focused on blogs for reviews so one of my favorite sections was the one on how to search the Amazon top reviewer list and look for people who review books in your genre. There's also a great list of Facebook groups where the members are specifically looking for books to review. The time it takes to develop these types of lists is huge and this book helps save authors a lot of time.
Another 'ah-ha' moment was when I discovered that you can actually send a .mobi file directly to someone's Kindle! I didn't even realize I had a Kindle email address. It just goes to show that there are so many layers and having a book like this helps effortlessly peel them away.
I was given a free copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.
Currently, I do not write books; I am an archivist. I take old books (the type that maybe one in ten thousand will read) and preserve them. For what I do, the need for a review is negligible. However, I am also a reader and reviews play a huge part in whether or not I buy a book - and they even play a part after I purchase the book - and if the reviews do not match what I see in the book, I will return it. Since I am dependent on reviews, I am a bit curious about the subject.
"How to Get Honest Reviews" is an easy-to-follow, yet highly detailed, presentation on the subject. It covers the benefits (and necessity) of having them, but also how to go about getting them. Amazon reviews are covered, of course, but also how to gain reviews on the blog front, social media, give-aways, and so on. The steps were very clear, but I was equally impressed with the level of detail given in what I call, "Watch fors." Each venue has their own rules in how a book a presented for reviews (as well as how to write a review). You do not have to worry about find these little reminders; they are embedded throughout the text, particularly where there are differences in rules across venues.
As an archivist, I am concerned about the book's structure and layout. I am pleased with this one (I am notorious for returning badly formatted books). Not only is the layout easy on the eyes, the table of contents work. Here, the TOC is a little more important since the book can be read in any order.
I think that this is an excellent book and one worth keeping close by. It is more than a tutorial, but a solid reference.
Well, there are quite a few answers in this book. The basic approach, of course, is simple: Write a quality book, with great information in it if it's non-fiction, and then get a bunch of people to review it. If it's good, then you'll get the 5-star reviews.
It's getting people to review it, for me, that's the more difficult part. And that's where this book helps.
I've been through the book marketing cycle before, and there were quite a few sources of honest reviews in here that I wasn't familiar with. Will I be using most of them this time around? You bet.
By the way, it's a quick read. The authors don't waste your time with a bunch of wordiness or non-essentials.
In short, I think this book is well worth getting.
Note: I received a free copy of this book in exchange for my honest review. That review has been based on "what if" -- "What if I had bought this book instead of being given a copy, and wanted to review it?"

Product Description:
Composer and producer G-Spliff brings in a bevy of female singers for his full-length debut MY MELANCHOLIC GIRLS, recalling the dark-hued electronica of Portishead and Morcheeba on songs like "Sad About Nothing."
Despite his ganja-centric handle, G-Spliff's debut album has little to no dub reggae influence. True to its title, however, My Melancholic Girls is a solid collection of mostly minor key pop songs with female vocals and an overall sense of tristesse. The arrangements are surprisingly lush for this sort of electro-pop, along the lines of latter-day Saint Etienne. Even relatively beat-driven songs like "What'd I Do Wrong?" have a gentleness and languor about them, but most of the album consists of dreamy lost-love ballads like "Keep the Silence" and "Won't Part." The album's pinnacle comes late with the glorious "Sad About Nothing," which raises up from the slightly monochromatic gloom of the preceding ten tracks for a feeling closer to what the Brazilians call "saudade," or pleasurable melancholia. With a sweeping chorus that's the strongest on the album, "Sad About Nothing" is both emotionally complex and instantly musically appealing, and pulls My Melancholic Girls, at least for four minutes, out of its pretty but comparatively one-note sulk. ~ Stewart Mason

BNP Paribas 2Q Net Profit Beats Estimate
52:19 - BNP Paribas SA, France's largest bank, posted second-quarter profit that was little changed as a surge in bond trading was offset by a drop in equities and low interest rates hampered consumer banking. Net income was 2.56 billion euros ($2.8 billion), up 0.2 percent from a year earlier, the Paris-based bank said in a statement Thursday, That's above the 2.2 billion-euro average estimate of seven analysts compiled by Bloomberg. The bank recorded pretax gains from exceptional items, including selling its stake in Visa Europe, of 285 million euros, about the same as last year's level. Chief Financial Officer Lars Machenil discusses earnings with Bloomberg's Caroline Connan.

Software AG was among the select companies that Forrester Research, Inc., a leading independent research firm, invited to participate in its report, "The Forrester Wave™: Big Data Streaming Analytics Platforms, Q3 20141". In this evaluation, Software AG received top scores in the Current Offering and Strategy Categories, and among the highest scores in the Market Presence Category. Software AG's Apama Complex Event Processing platform, part of the company's Intelligent Business Operations (IBO) offering, was evaluated.
Citing Software AG as a company with a "…vision (that) puts real-time customer experience first", Forrester highlighted several features that landed Software AG's in the Streaming Analytics Leader category, including:
- Stream Processing - "Software AG IBO provides comprehensive streaming operators. Filtering, aggregation, location-based, time windows, temporal patterns, query enrichment, action interfaces, and dynamic operators."
- Visualization tools – "Software AG IBO provides a rich Web-based UI framework that enables the building of direct client UIs and the binding (mashup) of separate data sources that can be merged, analyzed and then mapped to a flexible set of real-time visualization."
- Data sources – "Software AG IBO supports more than 100 input/output protocol and industry data adapters. Software AG provides a developer toolkit to build customer adapters."
Dr. Wolfram Jost, Chief Technology Officer and member of the Executive Board at Software AG, said: "I believe that this report echoes the feedback we receive from our customers, who acknowledge the tremendous competitive value they gain when using Software AG's Intelligent Business Operations (IBO) solutions. Streaming Analytics is at the core of our IBO offering and is the basis upon which companies can manage fast 'Big Data' and the increasing impact of the 'Internet of Things'."
Streaming Analytics is fundamental to enterprises deriving maximum knowledge, value, and competitive advantage from the rapidly growing Internet of Things (IoT). It is estimated that the IoT will add nearly two trillion dollars in economic value by 2020 through opening new and diverse markets and channels. Enterprises that need to implement innovative and flexible business models that can rapidly address new markets must first be able to identify market movements and changing requirements in real-time. Streaming analytics provides this capability.
To address this, Software AG's Apama and Terracotta products are built on an in-memory architecture that enables real-time processing of extremely fast, large data volumes -- orders of magnitude larger than traditional database based IT architectures. Uniquely, they can combine in-memory, historical process discovery and performance monitoring data with real-time business operational data streams. Continuous analytics on streaming data can be performed to identify business patterns, which have happened or are about to happen. Visualizations and visual analytics for business users support both human-oriented and automated intelligent actions.
David Walker, IT Strategist and Architect at DBS Bank, one of the largest and most prominent institutions in Asia and a Software AG customer, noted:
"Over the last three years our bank has been leveraging the power of streaming analytics in multiple areas including real-time fraud detection and location-based marketing and cross-sell. With our real-time fraud detection system, we provide our customers with unparalleled protection in the region; while our right-time location-based marketing and cross-sell solutions offer our customers pin point advice and offers to suit their needs. The Software AG streaming analytics solution delivers tremendous value rightly recognised in the market."
Apama is deployed in numerous organizations worldwide: for example in financial services with banks such as in Australia and New Zealand Bank, the Royal Bank of Canada and Unicredit, in manufacturing with Manuvis, logistics with Royal Dirkzwager and in telecommunications with Turkcell.
Jay Johnson, President and Chief Executive Officer, Software AG North America noted: "All too often, companies are conducting 'rearview mirror' analysis and miss potential opportunities or threats. Using Software AG's Apama and Terracotta products as part of our IBO solution, business leaders can now receive up-to-the-minute information and analysis, and consequently they make the best decisions at the right time."
The complete report is available at www.softwareag.com/recognition.

Choosing the right cloud for your workloads is a balancing act that can cost your organization time, money and aggravation - unless you get it right the first time. Economics, speed, performance, accessibility, administrative needs and security all play a vital role in dictating your approach to the cloud. Without knowing the right questions to ask, you could wind up paying for capacity you'll never need or underestimating the resources required to run your applications.

- What's my body doing? Am I clenching my butt, my hands or my jaw? Our bodies are billions of cells firing at once and those cells can't be fooled. Tension in your being is picked up instantly by your body. Do a body scan.
- Am I breathing? Shallow breathing in the chest area vs the belly will not only change your voice, it's also a signal of fear, nervousness and playing the game of inauthenticity.
- Am I in the present moment or am I being hyper-vigilant? When we're feeling safe and authentically in the moment, we relax and respond naturally to what's showing up. When we're not, we're hyper-vigilant watching others for signs that we're accepted and okay.
When we're in the present moment, our reactions are authentic, our personalities are real and we feel safe to shine our gifts onto the world.

Dormant Stem Cells For Emergencies
Updated: 12/05/2008 - Many specialized cells, such as in the skin, intestinal mucosa or blood, have a lifespan of only a few days. For these tissues to function, a steady replenishment of specialized cells is indispensable. This is the task of so-called "adult" stem cells also known as tissue stem cells.

Steve Mason Blasts Damon Albarn for Headlining Glastonbury Two Years in a Row
Former The Beta band frontman Steve Mason has hit out at Damon Albarn for dominating the main stage at Britain's Glastonbury music festival two years in a row, insisting he should have handed over the opportunity to another group. Albarn and his Gorillaz band stepped in as last minute replacements for U2 when Bono was forced to undergo emergency back surgery.
But Mason has criticized Albarn for accepting the honor to headline last weekend's event after playing on the main stage with his other band, Blur, in 2009. He tells NME, "I couldn't explain to you how little interest I had in whether U2 played or not. I could not care less. The only thing that's bad is that Albarn got to have a headline when he had one last year. He should have given it to someone else."
Albarn recently admitted performing at Glastonbury has been among the highlights of his career so far, saying "For me Glastonbury is the most special festival on earth. I believe that there's magic in the earth there, so I'd never take it for granted."

As a public service, we've assembled this surefire guide to scoring this low-paid, part-time gig.Punditry means looking ever outward, never inward; grow corpulent yourself, but persist in mocking the appearance of others.A useful phrase for pundits: "Never show, always tell." Declare yourself to be "funny" despite a total lack of evidence of humor in your work.Research is for reporters, not pundits. State up front that you have no idea what the subject of your column actually is.Pundits are judged by their career credentials rather than the content of their characters; to be on the safe side, keep the content of your character a secret.Use your platform as a pundit primarily to blast those who are insufficiently worshipful of your beautiful mind.Marry the boss. After this, your punditry can be whatever self-absorbed bullshit you want.Express shock and outrage that your competitors would try to compete with you. What part of "Great Pundit" did they not understand?Pundits know politics. They do not know morality. They do not know legality. They do not know ethics, nor righteousness, nor poetry. Politics. Get it right.What's the conventional wisdom? What's the slightly lefthanded spin on the conventional wisdom? What's the slightly righthanded spin on the conventional wisdom? Can you find the space exactly between these two mild takes on the conventional wisdom? What is that space called? The conventional wisdom! Write that.

TAU research says prenatal exposure to viruses may cause type 1 diabetes and other autoimmune diseases in children
The incidence of type 1 childhood diabetes has been increasing rapidly worldwide. If blood sugar levels aren't well-controlled, juvenile diabetes can affect nearly every organ of a child's body. And while long-term complications of the disease develop gradually, they may become disabling and even life-threatening. The exact cause of juvenile diabetes has eluded scientists, but a new study from Tel Aviv University suggests a likely trigger before birth.
In a recent paper published in Diabetic Medicine, Prof. Zvi Laron, Professor Emeritus of Pediatric Endocrinology at TAU's Sackler Faculty of Medicine, Director of the Endocrinology and Diabetes Research Unit at Schneider Children's Medical Center of Israel, and Head of the WHO Collaborating Center for the Study of Diabetes in Youth, puts forth evidence that the autoimmune disease is initiated in utero. According to the research, conducted in collaboration with an international team of researchers, women who contract a viral infection during pregnancy transmit viruses to their genetically susceptible fetuses, sparking the development of type 1 diabetes.
Prof. Laron is internationally known for the discovery of the Laron Syndrome, also known as Laron-type Dwarfism, an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by an insensitivity to growth hormone.
The "right season" for diabetes
"We knew that type 1 diabetes was associated with other autoimmune diseases like Hashimoto Thyroiditis, celiac disease, and multiple sclerosis, so we investigated the seasonality of birth months for these respective diseases in Israel and other countries," said Prof. Laron. "We found that the seasonality of the birth of children who went on to develop these diseases did indeed differ from that of the general public.
"In further studies, we found evidence that viral infections of the mother during pregnancy induced damage to the pancreas of the mother and/or the fetus, evidenced by specific antibodies including those affecting the pancreatic cells producing insulin," Dr. Laron said.
For the study, Prof. Laron and his team of researchers from Israel, the University of Washington, and Lund University, Sweden, conducted blood tests of 107 healthy pregnant women, testing for islet cell autoantibodies — evidence of diabetes that appears years before initial symptoms do. They also tested for anti-rotavirus and anti-CoxB3 antibodies.
The researchers found a striking difference between women tested in different seasons, suggesting a link to winter epidemics. The concurrent presence of GAD65 antibodies in cord blood and their mothers indicated autoimmune damage to islet cells during gestation, possibly caused by cross-placental transmission of viral infections and/or antivirus antibodies. In other words, during viral epidemics of winter months, ten percent of the healthy pregnant women who had no family background of autoimmune diseases tested positive for damaging antibodies.
Vaccination before conception
In addition, the cord blood antibody concentrations that exceeded those of the corresponding maternal sample, or antibody-positive cord blood samples with antibody-negative maternal samples, implied an in utero immune response by the fetus.
"If our hypothesis can be verified, then preventive vaccine before conception would be useful in stopping the increasing incidence of type 1 diabetes and other autoimmune diseases," said Prof. Laron. "There is no cure for this diabetes, so true intervention would be important not only medically but also psychologically and financially, as the costs of the lifelong treatment of this chronic disease and other autoimmune diseases are great."
Prof. Laron and his international collaborators are currently raising funds to expand their research to include nearly 1,000 women and newborns.

The Pennsylvania Horsemen's Benevolent and Protective Association has submitted an application for a license for a Thoroughbred racetrack that would be built in the Lehigh Valley, less than two hours north of the Philadelphia metropolitan area. If approved, daily purses would eventually average $1 million a day under a plan whereby all profits from slot machines would go back to horsemen.The application was submitted to the Pennsylvania State Horse Racing Commission July 1. Organized under its wholly owned subsidiary, "100% Purses Inc.," the Pennsylvania HBPA intends to construct Freedom Park, which would have a 1 1/8-mile dirt track and an inner turf course on 485 acres in Palmer Township in the Allentown-Bethlehem-Easton metro area. The second phase of the project calls for construction of a 400–500 room hotel/conference center.The track would be located within two hours of Penn National Race Course in Grantville and Philadelphia Park near Philadelphia. The Downs at Pocono, a Standandbred track located near Wilkes-Barre, about 1 1/2 hours north of the Lehigh Valley, has operated an off-track betting parlor near Allentown for more than 10 years.Organizers of the project said Freedom Park, in anticipation of legislation that would approves slot machines at racetracks in Pennsylvania, "represents the unique opportunity for horsemen, the real shareholders of the Pennsylvania Thoroughbred horse racing industry, to own and operate a racetrack where all profits will be reinvested into the purse structure."Purse enhancements would amount to about $175 million over the first four years of operation, which is a 90% increase in purses above the $200 million required by contract or mandated by law. The application by 100% Purses said the entity intends to offer daily average purses that will, in most cases, double the purses that are currently being paid by racetracks in California and Kentucky.Freedom Park would offer 100 days of live racing within three years, with daily average purses of $1 million. As additional profits are generated, the meet would be expanded or purses would be increased. There would be no operator profits, according to 100% Purses.The Pennsylvania HBPA, which represents horsemen at Penn National Race Course, said it embraces the commitment of the Pennsylvania legislature toward improving the quality of live horse racing through the placement of slots at racetracks. Shareholders/horsemen involved with 100% Purses would utilize 64% of net gaming revenue to offer the horsemen and breeders in Pennsylvania an opportunity to participate in a program that would establish Freedom Park as a premier racing facility in the United States, the entity said.The planned initial investment in Freedom Park exceeds $200 million, and eventually would top $400 million. It is expected to create 800 to 1,000 jobs.

(Ahlul Bayt News Agency) - The President made the remarks here Tuesday evening in a meeting with a number of major media and press managers of Egypt.He said the Zionist regime was eager to attack Iran but was scared of the consequences of such an act.The President said the same countries which engineered the Zionist regime have come to the conclusion that their hand-made instrument is no longer capable of carrying out its missions and thus are changing their approach towards it, virtually meaning the annihilation of Zionism and occupation.He said the Zionists have already recognized this change in attitude and want to alter the situation to their own benefit by measures such as attacks on Syria.However, President Ahmadinejad added, Zionists do not dare to attack Iran.Stressing that the highest degree of freedom is guaranteed in Islam, he said Muslims have hoisted the flag of justice all over the world even for the people of Europe and Americas because the prosperity and justice promised in Islam are for the whole humanity.Elsewhere in his remarks, the Iranian President turned to Syrian crisis saying that Tehran believed the Syrian government and nation have to settle the dispute by their own through dialogue.Stressing that Iran believed war was no proper way to solve the problem in Syria, he said Tehran endeavored to bring parties closer to each other.Fortunately, he added, signs are emerging that the goal is not far to achieve.Commenting on Iran-Egypt ties, President Ahmadinejad said Tehran and Cairo were like two brothers which were separated for a long time but could now play a complementary role in development of region through mutual cooperation.Certainly, he noted, evil forces were reluctant to see close cooperation between the two countries.He further voiced Iran's readiness to bolster ties with Egypt without any restrictions since it considered development of Egypt as its own progress.Asked about Iran's relations with its Persian Gulf neighbors, President Ahmadinejad said ties with the neighboring countries enjoyed very good conditions.He said two of Iran's gas pipelines will reach the United Arab Emirates soon, raising the volume of Iran-UAE exchanges to about dlrs 16 billion.Saying that Iran's ties with Kuwait and Qatar were vey good, he added that he had visited Saudi Arabia for five times upon Riyadh invitations.As to situation in Bahrain, he stressed that rights of Bahraini people should be observed and respected.He said Iran safeguards security of the Persian Gulf while the West is after sowing discord in the region to guarantee its own interests.He said cooperation among regional countries would turn western countries into losers.Saying that western countries sold arms to regional countries at annual cost of dlrs 50 billion, he said poverty would have completely vanished from the region had regional countries spent the amount on their own nations.He said the western countries were after dominating the Middle East region for its energy resources and their dominance over the region would mean ruling the whole world.President Ahmadinejad arrived in Cairo on Tuesday at the official invitation of his Egyptian counterpart Mohamed Mursi to attend the two-day summit meeting of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC).The 12th OIC Summit, to kick off today, will focus on the Islamic world's most urgent issues like crises in Syria, Mali and Palestine. /129
