Transparency Public Meeting Structure and Format
We are seeking advice on the best way to structure the June 24, 2009 public meeting on transparency.
The agency typically organizes public meetings by the order in which presenters submit their speaking requests to the agency. This approach has varied results as it can be difficult to locate a particular meeting or to review comments associated with a particular topic after the meeting. We have come up with additional options below for organizing the June 24 public meeting and we are interested in your input.
- By Product (e.g., drugs/biologics, medical devices, foods, cosmetics, dietary supplements)
- By Agency Action (e.g., review of product applications and product approvals, enforcement actions, recalls, public education and outreach to stakeholders)
- By Question posed in the Federal Register notice
Thank you in advance for your help and advice.
FDA Transparency Task Force

The process for submitting a comment is CUMBERSOME and UNCLEAR. I have clicked on many different possibilities before finding this posting place. I am not confident you are going to receive this.
I suggest using the internet to relay your transparent information. However, based on what I saw as I was trying to comment, someone needs to test the information displayed with many different people (100-1000) from all walks of life to see if they understand what is being reported or asked.
Since transparency is vitally important, you need to make sure people actually understand what you have written. In fact, I would suggest that this part of the process is just as important, or more so, as the transparent information you are reporting.
As a normal consumer, I would like to see the information, how the information was gathered, who gathered it, if there is scientific backing (if appropriate), what the information means and where to find more information, should it be necessary or requested.
Thank you.

General blog idea – why not have a tool by which people reading comments can recommend a comment? I.e. if I see a comment that I agree with, I can click on a thumbs up button and recommend it. That way you can see how many people that read this blog support other's views without having to repeat.

Having witnessed a family member experience the worst possible outcome from a drug adverse event, due to current legislative constraints that limit transparency, as well as astonishing weaknesses in the current approval/regulatory process, I truly appreciate that the FDA is seeking public advice. However, I think it is critical that there be more effort to publicize this blog.
I read the newspaper and listen to TV national news each day. I also likely have my eyes far more open to looking for FDA news than the average person. Yet there has been little about the transparency task force and today was the first I learned of this specific blog through an emailed FDA Digest Bulletin.
My guess is that the vast majority of Americans do not subscribe to FDA newsletters and do not frequent the FDA website. I urge you to make a truly concerted effort to get the word out via the many forms of media available. Otherwise, you will get a very slanted sampling of advice – one that is not representative of our population and the many "FDA experiences."
Finally, greater than 70% of Americans do not have a level of health literacy adequate for understanding or navigating the health care system. I recommend that you bring the readability level down when you pose questions and make it simpler to understand how to access the blog and post comments.
I understand your resources are limited and time is inadequate. Perhaps you could offer an internship to some college students. They'd appreciate the experience and be able to help get the word out to as many media sources as possible. I'm sure one of the first things they'd recommend is that you use social media to direct people to this blog.
In summary please intensify your effort to widen your audience.

The FDA needs to revamp itself. It is a slow and bureaucratic organization. They lack the resources and technology to deal with medical and food related issues in the 21st century. Just look at the number of drug approvals, they have declined significantly. This due to a cumbersome process and heavy regulation placed on pharmaceutical companies. With this they not only stifling INNOVATION, but they are harming patients the people they are their to SERVE. There are fewer options of therapy for patients. The FDA is in a quite a sorry state of affairs, they need some real leadership for CHANGE. For instance, Alzheimer's disease is one of the most unmet medical needs of our time. However, the FDA has not been able to come together with Industry to get a disease modifying therapy through the clinic. Why? Because of the cumbersome rules in a post Vioxx era. They want to see large, long clinical trial results which cost hundreds of millions. If this is the path the FDA continues on, some of the biggest medical challenges of our era will never be adressed.
June 15, 2009 at 7:49 pm | #7
On June 24th, I suggest you consider an agenda which:
1. Describes the problem to be solved by the transparency initiative. Perhaps it would help set the stage to state the current and historical mission of the agency and list some of the more widely held perceptions and misconceptions among the FDA's interested parties.
2. Have each of the Centers – including NCTR – and the Office of the Commissioner give a presentation of the most successful 3-5 methods they have they have used historically to enhance public awareness about the workings of their part of the agency. (e.g. CDRH Studio webcasts, "FDA Consumer", "Enforcement Story", scientific publications, and of course press releases and Federal register notices).
3. Speakers requesting to be heard should be identified as to whether they represent for profit industry or consumers and an attempt should be made to ensure that 50% of floor time is given to consumers.
4. Establish taht measurable goals are to be met by any transparency effort. (Budget for statistically relevant random public and industry surveys would be good).
5. Propose a preliminary timeline to meet those goals with scenarios and budgets.
This is a worthy effort and one I hope the agency embraces whole heartedly. Having worked with FDA for many years, I have long felt the it is an exemplar of how taxpayer dollars can be spent for the people. Hopefully this will improve the way FDA takes and incorporates input by the people.

1. I would like to see the agency form a task force to proactively pay visits to pharmacuetical companies that are running phase III clinical trials on the early stage of the trial before the pharma company files for BLA as well conduct visits to the investigators sites participating in the respective clinical trial.
2. The agency should request from the biotech/pharma to provide a summary of ongoing trials every six months. Provide protocol deviations details, AEs, SAEs, dropout rate, and enrollment targets.

Advice From A Hiring Manager
14/03/2012 § 8 Comments
Last semester I took an Academic Libraries class that required me to interview an academic librarian. I reached out to Courtney Young to help me complete this assignment. Ms. Young is Head Librarian & Associate Professor of Women's Studies at Penn State Greater Allegheny and serves on the ALA Executive Board.
The goal of the project was to get a real world perspective on some of the special academic library issues we had discussed throughout the semester. While I drafted interview questions to address this objective–I couldn't help but see the interview as an opportunity. I was pretty confident that my interviewee had a hand in hiring at her library. Getting an interview can be tough, getting feedback from a hiring manager can be even more difficult. Knowing the struggle that many of my peers are facing in the job market, I thought it would be a good idea to ask her what she looks for in a job candidate. Courtney Young had some brilliant and unexpected advice that I hope you can put to use as you look towards the future and begin your job search.
Takeaway 1: Passion Matters
As Ms. Young and I discussed the issues of job candidates, she indicated that passionate prospects stand out to her. She urges job hunters not to apply for any and every open position–but the ones that they are truly excited about. If you apply for everything, the "any job will do" spirit will come through in application materials. As I think about Ms. Young's advice, I can see the merits of saving your time and resources applying and researching jobs that you are genuinely interested in–instead of spreading yourself thin trying to apply for everything.
Takeaway 2: Put Your Cover Letter to Work
Ms. Young had a great take on resumes and cover letters–"The resume is the skeleton. The cover letter is connective tissue, muscle and fat that build up the skeleton." While your resume shows the basics–use your cover letter to convey your excitement about the position and show how you are a great fit. Be sure to use your resume to put a positive spin on a job requirement you may not live up to. If you're passionate about a job, don't give up in your cover letter. Be upfront that you'll need to grow your knowledge in the area–and communicate your enthusiasm to do so.
Job searching is hard work. Hopefully you can take these tidbits and put them to use. Happy hunting.
§ 8 Responses to Advice From A Hiring Manager
I also want to add that job seekers shouldn't use a "one size fits all" cover letter. Research the institution you're interested in before you apply. Tailor the cover letter (and resume) to the institution's needs.
[...] follow up on Ashley's post earlier this week on advice from a hiring manager, I thought I'd share my own perspective. [...]
[...] about preparing yourself for the job search. Ashley gave you general advice she gleaned from an interview with a hiring manager. Rose brought you advice on filling out your job application and creating a cover letter. Then [...]

West Side Stories
A Tosa resident for almost 20 years, Karen is a mom and freelance writer, addicted to playing tennis. When not on the tennis court, she spends the fall and winter in the stands at Green Bay Packer and Marquette basketball games.
Karen is the author of "Grab a Bite," a dining out column and the former community columnist for the Wauwatosa NOW newspaper.
Facebook and Faux Friendships
The other day, I received an e-mail from an old friend and I realized that Facebook is muddling up my concept of friendship. She said she hadn't heard from me in a while and wondered what was going on. I was confused. Hadn't she seen the photos from our recent 25th anniversary vacation? Didn't she know that we missed our son but he was doing well on the West Coast or that our daughter was enjoying being in the performing arts in her school? Of course not – my friend isn't on Facebook. That's when it hit me - lately I've been spending more time with my Facebook friends than my real friends. Sigh.
As you may know, I am a proponent of "social networking." I think that despite their flaws, Facebook and Twitter are not the devils in disguise. Sure, they're not perfect, but they have their good points.

Chandler is a standards-based "Note-to-Self Organizer" designed for personal and small-group task management and calendaring. It consists of a desktop application and Chandler Hub, a free sharing service and Web application. You can also download and run your own Chandler Server.
Log4php is a PHP port of Log4j, the most popular Java logging framework. It supports configuration through XML and properties files (with the same structure as log4j) and custom Configurators. File, RollingFile, DailyFile, Echo, Console, Mail, PEAR::Db, PHP error, Syslog or NT events, and socket appenders are supported. Simple, TTCC, Pattern, Html, and Xml Layouts are supported. It also supports Filters, custom Levels, and Loggers. Internal debugging can be switched on and off. Log4php can be used inside a class or inside a main/sub function.
Spinneret is a structured storage engine that can be thought of as an extended tuple storage system. It takes the best aspects of relational, object, and hierarchical databases and throws away the dead weight associated with those technologies. The benefit of Spinneret is that its data model is incredibly flexible, allowing it to expose its underlying data in any number of ways. It operates similar to an object database, but without hard ties to an originating language, and can also behave like a relational database without the burden of complex joins.
ServingXML is a markup language for expressing XML pipelines and an extensible Java framework for defining the elements of the language. It defines a vocabulary for expressing flat-XML, XML-flat, flat-flat, and XML-XML transformations in pipelines. The accompanying console app supports reading content as XML files, flat files, SQL queries, or SAX events, and writing it as XML, HTML, PDF, or mail attachments. This software is especially suited for converting flat file or database records to XML, with its support for namespaces, variant record types, multi-valued fields, segments and repeating groups, hierarchical grouping of records, and row-by-row validation with XML Schema. There is also an API for embedding the software in a Java application.
Wine Management tracks wine production from harvest through bottling. As a record keeping system, it tracks history of wine compositions in all detail. It tracks variety, area, year, yield, and taste. Because it accumulates wine lost to processing and updates the yields, you always know the values when it was produced. Quantities processed by work center are kept up to date. Almost any level of inventory is available by month, including any combination of variety, area, year, taste, storage, and others. Tank lineup may prove very profitable with faster processing and reduced cellar cost and crews. It can find the best pipes to use based on either number of pipes, flow, or heat loss.
The mission of the Apache Portable Runtime (APR) project is to create and maintain software libraries that provide a predictable and consistent interface to underlying platform- specific implementations. The primary goal is to provide an API to which software developers may code and be assured of predictable if not identical behaviour regardless of the platform on which their software is built, relieving them of the need to code special-case conditions to work around or take advantage of platform-specific deficiencies or features.

Comments On Apr 13, 2014:Tires look like nice. I'm looking forward to getting some miles on, to test them out. There 's more flash around the tires then I have ever had on a new set of tires but it will not affect the tires and will come off after a few miles. Tread depth is 3\4" and on my rims the 26" tires measured 25.5 to 25.75 inches tall. If they perform well these will be a great deal.

Comments On Nov 13, 2013:I bought a set of these to replace my stockers, which had 2200 miles. The Tusk HDs came in at a great price and were shipped really fast. I had concerns about ride quality due to the 6-ply carcasses, but they're great at 9 psi for pavement, graded gravel, and light off-road use. So far great in the mud too, and side-slide is much less than the worn stockers. I recommend these to everyone who will listen. At 500 miles, they show no visible wear, so I'm hoping for great life.

Comments On Oct 16, 2013:Work Great on ATV's- but if you ride hard or aggressively in rocks you better spend the extra $ on "Big Horns" especially if you are putting them on a SXS. Seem to hold up and wear well in any other kind of terrain. :)

OTHER COLLECTIONS BY: Balenciaga
2012 March 1
Paris Fall 2012: Balenciaga, Ann Demeulemeester, Azzaro
FirstView View Gallery
(PARIS) Balenciaga
A parade of primary colors, rendered in techy, angular fabrications and razor-sharp cuts. All are recurring motifs at Nicholas Ghesquiere's Balenciaga, but this season, the designer was both more daring and restrained. The shoes? Walkable. The outerwear? Exaggerated, proportion-wise, but perfectly at home on the chicest sidewalks in the world. Sweatshirt dressing was just one big idea: leather and embroidered, covered in pailettes, or silkscreened with trippy, Star Wars-y mantras like "Out of the Blue." (Possible to pre-order the sienna and blue?) A high-waisted, blousy pant, folded over and belted at the waist, in lurex, lavender, blue was another new concept, as were the jumpsuits and bonded leather coats, all arm and shoulder.
Ann Demeulemeester
There's that purple again! Serious color trend alert: that dark sapphire has been everywhere from Kane to Prada to, now, Demeulemeester, and it added a jewel-toned injection into an otherwise straightforward meditation on noir. Of course, Demeulemeester's take on that is anything but simplistic: this season, it involved raven-reminiscent feathered headdresses, narrow leather trousers, curious micro capes in geometric shapes, and the gathered skirts and jackets she's known for.
In Lanvin vet Mathilde Castello Branco's first collection for Azzaro, the Vanessa Seward influence loomed large. The house hasn't strayed far from its unabashedly girly commitment to shine, sparkle, and the occasional shiny, sparkly bow, but the focus on daywear that Seward seemed to pursue in her last few seasons for the house has been eschewed in favor of the going-out frocks and coats that Parisian party girls crave.

On July 22, 2011 the president offered a plan to raise the debt ceiling by closing loopholes and not raising taxes:

Comments On Mar 29, 2014:Keeps water out. Feels just a little flimsy. But so far no problems. I just worry about cracking the plastic while tightening because I want the seal compressed. I use a little grease on the seal because why not.

Comments On Feb 11, 2014:These fit my 900 XP4 LE great with the STI Pro-lite wheels. 14X7 wheels on front &14X9 wheels on the rear, with this set up I can get just about anywhere in the sand with an otherwise stock machine. I was able to get to the top of comp hill @ Sand Mountain NV with one passenger and to the superbowl with a full load of adults, and was also able to go straight up all but the steepest stuff at Coos Bay OR around the Horsfall area camping area. Some other reviewers claimed to have rubbing issues with the V-Roll paddles but I have yet to have any problems.
Rear wheels with paddles mounted weighed in @ 31pounds while the fronts with tires mounted weighed only 28 pounds.

Practically Speaking
Kyle and her husband moved to Brookfield in 1986. She became active in local politics and started blogging in 2004. Her focus is primarily on local issues but often includes state and national topics, too. Kyle looks at things from the taxpayers' perspective in a creative, yet down to earth way, addressing them from a practical point of view.
Hear Dr. Bergman on 'The Dark Side of Charles Darwin', March 8th
College professor Dr. Jerry Bergman will present a 2 part talk The Dark Side of Charles Darwin at the Creation Science Society of Milwaukee's monthly meeting on Tuesday, March 8th, at 7:15pm. This month's meeting will be hosted by Grace Ev. Lutheran Church, 3030 W. Oklahoma Ave, in Milwaukee.
The first part deals with some of the dark details of Darwin's life such as:
•Charles Darwin's major goal in developing his theory was religious, he wanted to "murder" god (his words).
•He was active in "converting" all he could to his theory of origins.
•Darwin plagiarized most of his major ideas.
•Darwin was a racist of the worst kind and believed the lower races (the blacks) would go extinct.
•Darwin was opposed to helping the sick, but realized this idea would not go over well.
In Part 2, Dr. Bergman will explain "Atheism as it is found in the teachings of science", and "why the creation view of Origins is so important in this day when the media and public education disallows any view other than evolution to explain how all life has come about in this world of ours."
•It is well known and well recognized that evolution is the doorway to Atheism.
•A major reason given to become an Atheist was evolution.
•The whole point of the evolution creation account is to demolish the theistic creation account.
•It takes more faith to be an Atheist than a Creationist.
•Dr. Bergman will cover the Atheist creation story as developed by Hawking and others to document this.
It isn't often that we have a speaker with his level of experience. Dr. Bergman "has taught biology, genetics, chemistry, biochemistry, anthropology, geology, and microbiology at the college level for over 30 years. He has 9 degrees, including 7 graduate degrees, and has authored over 800 publications" including a book by the same title The Dark Side of Charles Darwin".
Interestingly, though once an Atheist*, "[Dr. Bergman's] examination of the scientific evidence for evolution led to ... Christ! ", which is why "case studies show clear evidence that many university officials and faculty are deeply afraid of intellectual freedom on this subject".
I am looking forward to hearing Dr. Bergman speak on this subject. If you are interested in Origins and Charles Darwin, I urge you to attend too.
*Like so many other Creationists who originally were Atheists, questioning the evidence for Evolution also led author, Kitty Foth-Regner, to Christianity: From Feminist Atheism to Biblical Truth.
"Hippie" Days are here again in Madison
Last April, I was privileged to visit my representatives after the April 15th Tea Party rally in Madison. It was my first time at our State Capitol (inside or out), and I was impressed by the artistry--its classic design, stonework, woodwork, sculpture, gilding, and murals.
Now to hear about the several million (now thought to be under a million)* dollars worth of damage from protesters taping protest signs on the Mankato limestone walls and marble trim, and to the floors from camping out, is heartbreaking. Marble and limestone are considered to be soft, porous stone, easily damaged by acids (spilled Coke is very acidic), staining, and glues. No wonder they have a "NO TAPING ON THE MARBLE" rule!
Take a look at the damage. (About half way through the news story.)
Don't laugh, this is serious, Rand Paul is pro-choice on toilets!
I think we could all use a little comic relief, so when I saw this caption on the Drudge Report, I had to snicker: Paul wants government hands off his toilet.
That's right. Newly elected Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky (Rep. Ron Paul's son) asked, "If the federal government can support abortion rights, why can't it also support light bulb choice."
I don't mean to diminish the serious side of Rand's inquiry, but it is a good question.
If you have shopped for incandescent light bulbs lately, you probably noticed that some higher wattage models are becoming scarce. (My personal favorite is the 150w large white globe bulb. It gives a nice even bright light for open ceiling fixtures, and because of its large size, the filament doesn't overheat--it lasts a long time. I can only find them at my trusty Elliot's Ace Hardware store.)
The article went on to suggest it was better not to "get [Paul] started about his toilet".
Rand Paul said, "'Light bulbs, refrigerators, toilets, you name it. You can't go around your house without being told what to buy. You restrict my purchases. You don't care about my choices. You don't care about the consumer.''' (I would add phosphate dish-washing detergent to that list--you know, the kind that actually works.)
"'Frankly, my toilets don't work in my house, and I blame you and people like you who want to tell me what I can install in my house,' Paul said."
Want ObamaCare defunded? Call Congress to sign VOTE NO pledge on Continuing Resolution
Many newly elected Republican Congressmen ran on a pledge to defund ObamaCare; reelected Republican Congressmen voted against ObamaCare over a year ago. On January 19th of this year, all of the House Republicans (plus 3 Democrats) voted to overturn ObamaCare.* However, unless these Republican Congressmen sign a pledge to vote NO on the Continuing Resolution up for a vote next Wed., March 17th, ObamaCare's implementation will be funded and next to impossible to repeal or defund in the future.
You see, $105 Billion was stuck here and there within the bill to fund ObamaCare's implementation WITHOUT Congressional Appropriation! In other words, this money ensured ObamaCare would proceed regardless of who won the November elections.
This is why it is essential that we call Speaker John Boehner, Majority Leader Eric Cantor, and Chair Rogers and tell them to VOTE NO on the Continuing Resolution vote that includes this ObamaCare funding. Tell your Congressman to sign the pledge to VOTE NO on the Continuing Resolution if it contains ObamaCare funding. If enough Republicans sign that pledge, Boehner will have to take that ObamaCare funding out. (Congressional contact numbers below)
Last month, Congressman Michele Bachmann blew the whistle on the $105 Billion dollars to fund implementation tucked in the ObamaCare bill, which passed in early 2010. (No wonder Speaker Nancy Pelosi said we have to pass to bill to find out what is in it!)
Last "[Wednesday] former Congressman Ernest Istook testified before the House Energy and Commerce Health Subcommittee about the $105 billion slush fund in advance appropriations liberals tucked inside Obamacare. The $105 billion bypasses the traditional yearly budgeting process and is spread throughout the 2,700 page legislation. It took the Congressional Research Service (CRS) seven months to identify all the disparate funds and it was not until February (11 months after the bill passed) that all of the funds could be totaled up."
Republicans have the position of strength here--the upper hand. The Continuing Resolution must be passed if we are to keep funding the Federal Government and avoid a shut down on March 18th. Instead of always negotiating weakly from a position of strength, like they did with extending the Bush Tax cuts, urge them to stand strong here? Ask them to honor their pledge to repeal and defund ObamaCare. Tell them to sign the pledge.

Write-In Nancy Kormanik files for Elmbrook School Board Election April 5
April 5th's Elmbrook School Board election just got more interesting: Nancy Kormanik filed as a Write-In candidate on Tuesday for the At Large position on the board.
Nancy Kormanik will run against Pro 4K Sandra Schultz and incumbent Kathryn Wilson. (Kathryn was against 4K in last year's election, then a month ago stated Pro 4K support, reversing her previous position. On March 4, she indicated her vote would probably be no 4K for now.) All of this public support of 4K occurred AFTER the candidate filing deadline, hence, the Nancy Kormanik Write-In campaign.
You may recall I mentioned Nancy Kormanik before. She spoke at the February 22 School Board meeting against implementing 4K: "Nancy Kormanik, spoke against 4K, saying that taxpayers shouldn't have to pay for a program that isn't mandatory. Kormanik, I found out, was a teacher at MATC."
I made a point to speak with Nancy Kormanik after that meeting and found that we have very similar views. She is someone who won't waffle on her 4K position; she is solidly against it.
Nancy Kormanik is also an educator, which I think is a valuable perspective to have on the School Board. She is fiscally conservative.
So Conservatives, you now have a real choice....Write-In Nancy Kormanik.
I will be posting more information about Kormanik in the days to come. In the meantime, if you have a question for Nancy Kormanik, you may contact her directly at email@example.com or email me directly at firstname.lastname@example.com
Nancy Kormanik to participate in Elmbrook Candidate Forum, Monday, March 21, 7pm
Just a reminder here, Monday, March 21st, at 7pm, there will be an Elmbrook Board of Education Candidate Forum, at the Central Administrative Offices at 13780 Hope Street in Brookfield.
What you might not know, is that Nancy Kormanik, the Write-In candidate for the At-Large position, will participate in that school board candidate forum, along with the other 5 candidates running for the 3 seats.
I encourage you to be there and get to know the views of each candidate.
The election is April 5th. All Elmbrook residents vote for ALL 3 BOARD POSITIONS: Area 1, 3, and At-Large, regardless of what area of the district we live in.
Come out and play at the Midwest Gaming Classic, March 26 & 27
It's that time of year again, the Midwest Gaming Classic comes to Brookfield's Sheraton Hotel, 375 South Moorland Road this weekend. Pay one fee and play all day: $20 Admission on Saturday, March 26th, 10am - 8pm, and $10 Admission on Family Day, Sunday, March 27th, 10am - 5pm. Children 12 and under are FREE if accompanied by an adult with paid admission.
This year marks the 10th Anniversary of the Midwest Classic. Billed as "The largest all-encompassing electronics gaming trade show", it has grown quite a bit since its early days. They are also offering a bus tour to the Stern Pinball factory in Illinois for $95 on Friday, March 25th. (Stern is the last of the pinball manufacturers in the US.)
There are tournaments, $5,000 in prizes, speakers, vendors, 100s of games to play, vintage games and computers museum section, and games to purchase. If it plugs in and has buttons, it probably will be at the Classic! The weather this weekend returns to the low 30s, so I would think attendance would be up. Check out the Event Guide for specifics.
Have fun!

Lloyd Carter for Waukesha County Circuit Court Judge, Branch 4
Be sure to also read April 5, 2011 Judicial Ballot Picks: David Prosser & Lloyd Carter
On Tuesday, April 5, 2011, Waukesha County residents will go to the polls to select a new Waukesha County Circuit Court Judge for Branch 4. On this race, my vote will go to Lloyd Carter, who has served as a criminal prosecutor for over 20 years in the Waukesha County District Attorney's office.
Carter has an extensive page of endorsements and supporters that include some names you might recognize: Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice Michael Gableman, Brookfield's State Representatives Dale Kooyenga and Paul Farrow, Brookfield's State Senator Rich Zipperer, Waukesha County Executive Dan Vrakas, and Waukesha County D.A. Brad Schimel, to name a few. Organizations include Professional Police Associations from New Berlin, Big Bend, Mukwonago, and Waukesha.
Lloyd Carter's opponent is Kathy Stilling, who was appointed last July by former Governor Doyle to fill the vacancy created when Judge Paul Reilly was elected to the Court of Appeals in April of 2010. Stilling was a State Public Defender from 1981 to 1989 and then went into private practice. I checked her page of supporters and didn't really recognize many names on it, though I did spot Brookfield Alderman Gary Mahkorn and Waukesha County Supervisor Tom Schellinger's names listed there.
If you want to learn more about the candidates' views and philosophies, there will be a Candidate Forum at Carroll University, Humphrey Memorial Chapel, 238 N. East Ave. in Waukesha, on Monday, March 28th, 6:30 - 8pm. Audience members will be able to submit questions to the candidates.
How to Write-In candidate Nancy Kormanik for AT-LARGE School Board Member & Flier
On Friday, I stopped in at City Hall to get a sample ballot. While there, I noticed some people were voting absentee--before candidate fliers have gone out. There is also some confusion as to how to vote for someone as a write-in candidate. I hope this posting clears that up.

Same Universe, Different Lenses: Science, Ethics, and Religion in Dialogue

This is a transcript of an interview given by Dr. Jennifer Wiseman at The Faith Angle Forum Conference on Religion, Politics, & Public Life on November 5, 2013.
A common argument leveled against the theory of evolution is that scientists have not been able to produce transitional fossils that show the change of one species into another. In this podcast, we address a common misconception about what transitional fossils actually are.
The God who created the cosmos is the God who came to us as a child in Bethlehem.
The song is built around the image of a river flowing through a canyon it has sculpted—an image that can easily be played out as a picture of the way that the Lord has been at work preparing a path for us in the material world, complete with signposts to his former and present activity.
I ask the question, "Why is the universe so special?" Now scientists don't like things to be special; we like things to be general, and our natural anticipation would have been that the universe is just a common specimen of what a universe might be like.
Barkley suggests that material creation is not the end of our understanding (as Naturalists think), but a beginning that unveils the majestic and power of a Creator who loves us.
As we remember the narrative that takes us from Good Friday through Easter morning, the image of a buried grain of wheat invites us into the story rather than just describing what happens in it.
A common challenge to evolutionary theory is that while life does indeed change over time (what is known as microevolution), no one has ever seen one species evolve into another species (macroevolution).
Is Genesis 1 describing material creation or functional creation? Pastor Richard Dahlstrom of Bethany Community Church beautifully articulates the insights he has received through John Walton's book The Lost World of Genesis One and probes deep into the Biblical text with us.
Physical death is a necessary and, perhaps, disconcerting element of the evolutionary process for many Christians. It is difficult to imagine a perfect and loving God designing such a universe where forces such as natural death and entropy operate.
The lyrics begin by painting a picture of the Fall as something in which each person has participated: "The fruit (of the Fall of man) is seen in every eye and every hand."
The discovery of DNA has revolutionized our understanding of common descent, particularly in the past few decades. Mutated genes spread through populations over generations, leading to evolutionary change. In this podcast, we look at several examples of genetic evidence for evolution.
This traditional American carol turns to Song of Songs 2:3 for inspiration; it uses the familiar apple as a emblem of the very tree of life, emphasizing that the promise we have in Jesus goes beyond the merely material to encompass our complete shelter, nourishment, and passionate joy.
in Genesis two, God calls humankind to know and study the surrounding world. The scriptures say that Adam took on the God-given task of naming the animals, which is, in fact, science: the exploration of the natural world.
Of all the blessings to be thankful for on Thanksgiving Day, none of them surpasses the riches of the eternal blessings which the Lord has bestowed on his sons and daughters in Christ Jesus.
In the last verses of Romans 2, the Apostle Paul relates the "failure of religion because of the terrible beauty of the Law" to the need for a regenerate heart.
In a recent interview with the Sirius XM radio show Centered, Karl Giberson sat down with host Don Belanus to discuss the book The Language of Science and Faith.
Pete Shaw highlights the story of Noah to explore how the story would have been understood in ancient times and from there he goes on to explore how we might consider it today.
Pete Shaw, the senior pastor of Crosswalk Community Church in Napa California, offers a brief history of the interactions between science and faith in the first segment of his sermon.
In his sermon, Dave Swaim discusses the early chapters of Genesis that seemingly contradict scientific evidence, and he suggests that Christians have simply asked the "wrong questions" about this ancient text, which has led to warfare between the two. In light of this, Swaim wraps up his sermon with the three concluding points that he feels sums up the Biblical truth of creation: there is an all-powerful God, he has a perfect plan, and he has given us his love through Jesus Christ.

John C. Goodman Speaks on Sean Hannity Show
Recorded: Thursday, October 31, 2013
John C. Goodman, author of Priceless: Curing the Healthcare Crisis, appeared on the Sean Hannity radio program on Thursday, October 31. Goodman discusses alternatives to Obamacare, as outlined in his book "Priceless." If patients control their healthcare, then providers can compete on quality and price, instead of government bureaucracies dictating healthcare choices to consumers. Jay Sekulow of the American Center for Law and Justice also joined the discussion.

Status quo: Mack Brown still Texas coach; Saban agrees to deal at Bama
By Football Rumor Mill Staff on December 13, 2013
It looks like the rumors of the end of Mack Brown's era as Texas coach were greatly exaggerated.
Brown's Friday evening meeting with school president Bill Powers and athletic director Steve Patterson came and went and, according to all reports, Brown will coach the Longhorns in 2014.
The news came roughly an hour after Alabama officials announced that Nick Saban has agreed to terms for a long-term extension.
Coincidence? Probably.
Regardless, even if Brown's status changes in coming days or weeks, it looks like Texas' top choice as his replacement is off the board.
This probably isn't the end to the Texas soap opera, but it looks like the status quo will hold … at least for now.

Conflicted spaces
Starting with, say, under-the-banyan tree, the public space seems to have been historically conflicted with the general public's desire for the commons to be public [just enough] to serve their private needs.
I should have stopped you when I saw you going after comfort–this thin-veil vilification of convenience is way out-of-control. How about thank god it's need and not its evil cousin want?
Hi Raduyu,
if you want to know what the "Big Brother"-situation meant for me: Nearly 20 years with heavy medicamentation (mainly all kind of neuroleptics). Nearly twenty years without a decent job. Nearly twenty years without decent sex. Nearly twenty years with very precarious friendships. Nearly twenty years of hard fight with the psychiatrists in Freiburg and Madrid.
In some way it meant also nearly twenty years without a sincere conversation, with nobody. That´s one reason why I write a blog. At least here I can say openly what I think.
You think this was a profitable business for me? I am now 47 years old and have a massive overweight (because of the neuroleptics).
If I get out of this situation – how many years do I have left? I´m a candidate for heart attack and diabetes. And a lot men get all kinds of cancers once they are over 45. What´s gonna be the reward for me? Money? My parents have enough money. Money is not my problem. I wish I could get back my lost years. But that´s impossible. Yours, Klaus
Metallica: Frantic
Hi Raduyu,
the worst for me about all this is the following: I didn´t succeed in changing the course of the eurocrisis. If I had at least achieved this, my sacrifice would have had some sense. But I´m a single figther in a eurozone with 332 millions of inhabitants.
I didn´t succeed, the eurocrisis has become now even much worse and harder for the southern european countries than in february when I started to comment the eurocrisis.
And the spaniards here in Madrid aren´t even grateful for my help. The people in Madrid mostly don´t like me and didn´t treat me right during this time since february. And the psychiatrists here in Madrid are a bunch of assholes.
Dont forget: We have a conservative government here in Madrid (Partido Popular). This conservativve goverment in Madrid represents the very conservative and bigot catholic spanish upper classes and accepts and supports the drastic austerity measures here in Spain imposed by Angela Merkel and the "Troika". It´s not them who lose the jobs and are ruined by these austerity measures.
And the upper classes in Freiburg (my german hometown) hate me now, especially the psychiatrists. The upper classes in Freiburg are also conservative and most of the members of this conservative classes in Freiburg adore Angela Merkel and Wolfgang Schäuble (Wolfgang Schäuble was born in Freiburg and is their "hero"). My own father is a conservative professor at the University of Freiburg and supports all those neoliberal german assholes.
Thanks god that I live near Switzerland, which isn´t in the Eurozone. I never had troubles with the inhabitants and the psychiatrists of Basel (Basel is 40 miles away from Freiburg).
All this fight against the eurocrisis was in fact just a waste of time and a real danger for me. And in some way all my years since 1994 (the year I got a diagnosis of paranoia) were just a waste of time.
A single person can´t change the neoliberal and technocratic system we are living in. Even the psychiatrists of Freiburg won´t get in any troubles because of me. "Business as usual", that´s all.
And when it comes to my "reward" for all this crap I went through: I give a damn about all the money in this world. I wished I could get all those wasted years back.
If I have had a normal life, I would have got a good job and a good salary anyway. I was a talented young journalist already before 1994. I was born in 1965 and started to work as a journalist in 1987 and I was already a well-known music critic and journalist in Freiburg before 1994. And I was a good looking man then. Now I´m a fat monster. It was just a waste of time, that´s all.
Yours, Klaus
