[JURIST] The US Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit [official website] on Monday reinstated [opinion, PDF] a water pollution lawsuit brought by survivors of the Bhopal disaster [BBC backgrounder] against US chemical producer Union Carbide [corporate website]. The litigation in the case, Sahu v. Union Carbide, concerns water pollution and groundwater contamination resulting from the 1984 disaster in Bhopal, India, in which nearly 3,800 people were killed when toxic gas was accidentally released in the middle of the night by a chemical plant owned by a Union Carbide subsidiary company. Upwards of 15,000 others later died from exposure to the gas, and 50,000 were left permanently disabled. Monday's order remanded the case to the US District Court for the Southern District of New York [official website], which the Second Circuit ruled had erred in converting Union Carbide's motion to dismiss the case into a motion for summary judgment. In remanding the case, Judge Robert Sack [official profile] wrote:
We think that the title of the defendants' memorandum in support of its motion as a motion to dismiss or [emphasis in original] for summary judgment similarly failed to provide the plaintiffs with adequate notice. A motion called a motion for summary judgment, whether or not stated as alternatively for dismissal, ordinarily will place a plaintiff on notice that the district court is being asked to look beyond the pleadings to the evidence in order to decide the motion. In this case, however, where the plaintiffs had filed a multi-count complaint and the supporting memoranda and can fairly be read to seek only dismissal under Rule 12(b)(6) on some counts and summary judgment on others, the motion papers provided insufficient notice....We conclude that further notice was required and that consequently it is appropriate to remand for what would appear to be relatively limited further proceedings in connection with consideration of summary judgment.

Skin Ulcers
Skin Ulcers- Reliable and relatively consistent scientific data showing a substantial health benefit.
- Contradictory, insufficient, or preliminary studies suggesting a health benefit or minimal health benefit.
- For an herb, supported by traditional use but minimal or no scientific evidence. For a supplement, little scientific support.
Our proprietary "Star-Rating" system was developed to help you easily understand the amount of scientific support behind each supplement in relation to a specific health condition. While there is no way to predict whether a vitamin, mineral, or herb will successfully treat or prevent associated health conditions, our unique ratings tell you how well these supplements are understood by some in the medical community, and whether studies have found them to be effective for other people.
For over a decade, our team has combed through thousands of research articles published in reputable journals. To help you make educated decisions, and to better understand controversial or confusing supplements, our medical experts have digested the science into these three easy-to-follow ratings. We hope this provides you with a helpful resource to make informed decisions towards your health and well-being.
Supplement Amount Why AloeApply gel on gauze or dressings daily [2 stars] Aloe has been used historically to improve wound healing and studies have shown it to be effective in healing skin ulcers.Diosmin and Hesperidin900 mg per day of diosmin and 100 mg per day of hesperidin [2 stars] One trial found that a combination of the flavonoids diosmin and hesperidin promoted healing of venous leg ulcers. Hydroxyethylrutosides (related flavonoids) may also help.Essential Fatty Acids TopicalRefer to label instructions [2 stars] In one study, topically applied essential fatty acids significantly lessened pressure ulcers and improved skin hydration and elasticity in malnourished people, who frequently develop ulcers.Evening Primrose Oil1,500 mg with each meal [2 stars] A preliminary report suggested that evening primrose oil improves blood flow to the legs and heals or reduces the size of venous leg ulcers.Folic AcidConsult a qualified healthcare practitioner [2 stars] Large amounts of folic acid given both orally and by injection could promote healing of chronic skin ulcers due to poor circulation.Gotu KolaApply an ointment or powder containing 1 to 2% herbal extract daily [2 stars] Gotu kola extracts may be used topically to help speed wound healing.Hyaluronic AcidApply a gel containing a partial benzyl ester derivative of hyaluronan under compression bandaging daily [2 stars] A trial found that topical application of a hyaluronic acid compound with compression bandaging was significantly better than bandaging alone for healing chronic venous skin ulcers.Pycnogenol150 mg per day orally, along with topical application of 100 mg daily [2 stars] In a controlled study, symptoms of diabetic skin ulcers improved in those treated with standard medications plus oral and topical Pycnogenol.Vitamin C1,000 mg daily [2 stars] Supplementing with vitamin C may help prevent skin ulcers and speed healing.Vitamin E Oral400 IU daily [2 stars] Antioxidants, such as vitamin E, are depleted in healing skin tissue. Studies have shown that vitamin E taken orally to be effective at preventing skin ulcers and promoting healing.ZincTake under medical supervision: 50 mg of zinc (plus 1 to 3 mg of copper daily, to prevent depletion) and apply zinc-containing bandages or tape to the area [2 stars] Supplementing with zinc may help some types of skin ulcer by facilitating tissue growth.Comfrey TopicalRefer to label instructions [1 star] Comfrey has a long history of use as a topical agent for treating wounds, skin ulcers, thrombophlebitis, bruises, and sprains and strains.Vitamin E TopicalRefer to label instructions [1 star] Antioxidants such as vitamin E, are depleted in healing skin tissue. One study found that topically applied vitamin E shortened the healing time of skin ulcers.About This Condition
Skin ulcers are open sores that are often accompanied by the sloughing-off of inflamed tissue.
Skin ulcers can be caused by a variety of events, such as trauma, exposure to heat or cold, problems with blood circulation, or irritation from exposure to corrosive material. Pressure ulcers, also known as decubitus ulcers or bedsores, are skin ulcers that develop on areas of the body where the blood supply has been reduced because of prolonged pressure; these may occur in people confined to bed or a chair, or in those who must wear a hard brace or plaster cast. Skin ulcers may become infected, with serious health consequences. Other health conditions that can cause skin ulcers include mouth ulcers (canker sores), chronic venous insufficiency, diabetes, infection, and peripheral vascular disease.

< Return To Hearing
The Honorable Russ Feingold
United States Senator Thank you Mr. Chairman for holding this hearing today on a critical issue facing my state of Wisconsin and the rest of the nation. The rising rate of foreclosures and its broader impact on the nation's economy is a serious issue that requires the involvement of all levels of government as well as both private and non-profit organizations. Subprime lending and rising foreclosure rates are complicated issues to unravel and any response, whether legislative or regulatory, will bring with it a set of consequences, some intended and some unintended. We need to examine a variety of responses to the rising foreclosure rates and their consequences, including providing more housing counseling for borrowers and more effectively regulating lending practices to prevent some of the unscrupulous practices that have occurred. Some of the more egregious lending practices include high rates of predatory lending in minority communities, steering borrowers into subprime mortgage products even if the borrowers qualified for more conventional loans, and not ensuring that borrowers fully understood the terms of subprime loans. Earlier this year, I was pleased to join a letter led by Senator Kohl asking that the Federal Reserve investigate the fair lending practices of financial institutions in response to troubling data on subprime lending in Wisconsin. The letter noted that "...sixty-one percent of all loans made in 2006 to African Americans were subprime loans. In the City of Milwaukee alone, seventy-two percent of African American borrowers had high cost loans despite the fact that over half of the borrowers may have qualified for more conventional, lower cost loans." As we move forward on legislative responses, we also need to examine ways to promote greater oversight of lending practices to help curb the disparate impact that is being felt in our minority communities throughout the country. More counseling for borrowers and increased regulation of lenders will help future borrowers, but we also need to examine ways to provide targeted relief to Americans facing foreclosure on their homes now. It is estimated that at least two million Americans may face foreclosure on their homes, which is not only a devastating loss for those individual families, but also will have a significant negative impact on the communities in which these homes are located. I have heard from some advocates in Wisconsin about the concentration of home foreclosures in certain communities and about the damaging impact these foreclosures will have on specific neighborhoods. Senator Durbin's legislation provides a targeted and constructive solution to homeowners currently facing foreclosure. Advocates estimate that this legislation could help approximately 600,000 homeowners around the country. This bill would permit qualified homeowners who have filed for Chapter 13 bankruptcy to modify the mortgage on their primary residence to make their mortgage payments more affordable. The bill only applies to borrowers who meet an income means test under the legislation, thereby helping to ensure that borrowers who can still make the monthly payments on their mortgages will continue to do so. I understand the lending community is concerned about the implications of the Durbin legislation and I hope that we can work together in the coming weeks to address those concerns. As I stated, our response needs to be the result of cooperation at all levels of government and with the involvement of the non-profit and for-profit housing organizations. I commend Senator Durbin for promoting a measured response targeted at homeowners facing extreme hardship and I look forward to working with him to move this bill forward. |

British Medical Journal
23 May 2003
Aziz Sheikh and AR Gatrad
In our experience, rates of blood donation among some black and other ethnic minority groups are currently very poor, increasing the difficulty of finding matched blood for people from these groups who need emergency transfusion. We have found that less than 2% of people attending blood donation sessions in the West Midlands�an area with a high proportion of people of Pakistani and Bangladeshi origin�were from ethnic minority communities.
The National Blood Transfusion Service is introducing a question on ethnic origin in its health check forms for donors. This development is to be welcomed, for at least two reasons. Such categorisation should make it easier to find blood for people who have rare blood types. And, with the implementation of the Race Relations (Amendment) Act 2000, for the first time there will be the means to monitor service delivery to ethnic minority groups, thereby providing some assessment of opportunities for people from these communities to donate blood. While we welcome this development we feel that in itself it is unlikely to promote blood donation in these communities. What is needed is far more insightful interventions that are informed by a working appreciation of the various barriers against blood donation.
Recently we began a campaign to promote blood donation among Walsall's large Muslim population. Through informal discussions with community leaders, elders, and members of the general public we have begun to identify at least some of the key conceptual and practical obstacles. The concern we most commonly encounter is an uncertainty as to whether or not blood donation is against the teachings of Islam. Other barriers included a lack of awareness of the existence of facilities for donation, the belief that being too old or taking medicines precluded eligibility to donate, and a fear of becoming infected while donating.
Central to our campaign has been a willingness to work with local communities and their representatives. We have established a donor centre in a state of the art building in the heart of Walsall's Muslim community, and we have embarked on an education programme to dispel some of the myths concerning blood donation. With the help of imams of local mosques we have begun explaining the fluidity and in-built dynamism of Islamic law. Thus, while emphasising that life and our bodies are most certainly a sacred trust from God, we have also been able to highlight how the preservation of life is a higher order objective (indeed, the Arabic term shar'iah means "the path leading to the well of life"). Hence we can explain that many Muslim jurists have ruled that in cases of need it is acceptable�indeed commendable�to donate blood.
On our inaugural day we were pleasantly surprised, with over 30 donations. Another 15 people who were willing to donate had to be turned away, however, because of recent visits to areas where malaria is endemic. As this was for many of them their first visit, this may unfortunately discourage further attendance.
Through talking to donors we have been able to better understand some of the practical strategies that could facilitate blood donation. For example, we have learnt about the importance of making it possible to donate in the late afternoon and at weekends�such times being better suited to the working patterns and lifestyle of people in this community. Some times, such as Fridays and the month of Ramadan, are inconvenient and should perhaps be avoided when planning donation sessions.
Most gratifying of all has been seeing a small but dedicated group of people become regular donors. We believe that by involving key stakeholders in strategic discussions, such as the development of suitable educational resources, many of the barriers to blood donation in this community can be overcome.
Certainly, our experiences suggest that by connecting with the populations they serve health providers can do much to promote health, wellbeing, and social inclusion, even among the most marginalised sections of our society.

Issue 28 Bones Winter 2007/08Artist Project / Character StudyMichael PaulusDespite their wildly distorted human forms, the familiar cartoon characters pictured on the following pages are so commonplace in our contemporary culture that we have come to think of them in some sense as real, living beings. Given this, I thought it would be interesting to examine them as science does any living thing—stripping them down to their bare essentials; dissecting them, as it were, in an attempt to discover their true make-up. As a way to understand better these "individuals" on their most basic level, I rendered their skeletal systems as they would necessarily have to look if someone had, for instance, a skull comprising sixty percent of his or her body mass. Charles Shultz's classic ensemble—and Charlie Brown, specifically, with his conspicuously disproportionate head—provided the original incentive to investigate the origins of these entities. Michael Paulus is a multi-media artist living in Portland, Oregon. Working primarily with film, video, and sculpture, he focuses on the intersection of science and art, often by creating objects that are inherently misguided or dysfunctional.

Israel and the apartheid analogy
From Wikiquote
(Redirected from Israeli apartheid)
These are quotes related to claims of Israeli apartheid, that draw an analogy between South Africa's treatment of non-whites during the apartheid era and Israel's treatment of Arabs living in Israel.
- It reminded me so much of what happened to us black people in South Africa. I have seen the humiliation of the Palestinians at checkpoints and roadblocks, suffering like us when young white police officers prevented us from moving about. Many South Africans are beginning to recognize the parallels to what we went through.
- Desmond Tutu|[1]
- I was shocked to see these walls, it's a new apartheid, barbaric behavior: How can you impose such a collective punishment and separate people? After all, we are all living on the same planet. It seems to me the world should have already learned from what happened in South Africa.
- Nigel Kennedy|[2]
- The difference between the current Israeli situation and apartheid South Africa is emphasised at a very human level: Jewish and Arab babies are born in the same delivery room, with the same facilities, attended by the same doctors and nurses, with the mothers recovering in adjoining beds in a ward. Two years ago I had major surgery in a Jerusalem hospital: the surgeon was Jewish, the anaesthetist was Arab, the doctors and nurses who looked after me were Jews and Arabs. Jews and Arabs share meals in restaurants and travel on the same trains, buses and taxis, and visit each other's homes. Could any of this possibly have happened under apartheid? Of course not.
- Benjamin Pogrund|[3]
- Those who use the apartheid accusation employ the old anti-Zionist arguments. These constitute a multi-layered construct of fundamental ideological positions and analytical constructs, one of which is the purposeful displacement of the real nationalist context for historical comprehension of Zionism with the vilifying label of colonialism. Many anti-Zionists, but not necessary all of them, apply identifiable double standards of judgment to Israel traceable to the characteristic anti-Semitic premise that all things Jews do are inherently evil, including their nationalism.
- Shimoni Gideon|[4]
- I loved South Africa, but I loathed the apartheid system. In Israel, I saw a fresh start for a people rising from the ashes of the Holocaust, a place of light and justice, as opposed to the darkness and oppression of apartheid South Africa.
- Hirsh Goodman, New York Times, 31 January 2014
- I think my appointment is the example and answer for those who accuse Israel of being an apartheid state. It shows minorities have equal rights and we are part of the government, the state and the parliament.

In earlier interviews, DOE employees praised Marple.
"All our programs have blossomed since she came," Goff told the Gazette in August. Last year, school systems bought more than $100,000 in fresh foods from West Virginia farmers. Every eligible county system is now signed up for the federal Fresh Fruit and Vegetable program.
Marple insisted that the DOE cooperate with other agencies, Caseman said. "The cooperative spirit spread, so we've gotten many more people to the table to maximize children's health efforts."
The Bureau of Public Health's Chuck Thayer said he too was "stunned" by the news of Marple's firing. Marple significantly expanded a children's-health partnership between the BPH and Department of Education, he said.
"The DHHR now directs about $1 million toward that partnership," he said. "We fund regional wellness coordinators in the schools to help develop wellness activities, anti-smoking activities, that kind of thing.
"We very much want the Office of Healthy Schools to be sustained. And we're worried about that."
A major part of OHS federal funding will run out in February. Marple told the Gazette in October that she was committed to finding ways to keep the office in operation.
Under Marple, the Office of Healthy Schools stopped telling the Legislature that five-day-a-week physical education is too expensive and began advocating daily physical activity instead.
The OHS has been negotiating with Playworks, a national program that helps schools create five day-a-week physical activity programs, OHS physical activity coordinator Mary Weikle told the Gazette last summer.
"What's going to happen to all that?" asked Jenny Phillips, who resigned from the school board last Thursday in protest.
"If Dr. Marple had been doing a bad job, I could understand wanting to change," she said. "But her evaluations were excellent. In every aspect of what's needed in a child's life, from academics to health, she has been there."
She said the unannounced, dismissive way Marple's firing was handled was "horrible" and "a travesty."
Caseman is worried about the upcoming legislative session. "This close to the session, how do we prepare, to make sure important children's health programs don't get cut?" she said. "Those of us who advocate for children's health don't have a lot of money for lobbyists. With Dr. Marple, we could count on the Department of Education. Now we may have to circle our wagons."

Pentax 8x40 PCF WP II Binoculars - 65807
Filter Results |
Pentax 20X60 PCF WP II BinocularsThis review is from: PENTAX 65810 20 x 60mm PCF WP II Binoculars Pros: The image is large, something important in high magnification optics. The image is crisp, resolution is high and contrast is very good. Shadow detail holds up even in deep shade and poor light. Eye cups are durable and function properly. A very well made binoculars, very high quality construction. Cons: Heavy, for a steady-handed, after 30min you have to take a break, will be difficult to use for extended amounts of time, for some people. You will need a stable tripod. Other Thoughts: Nice job Pentax. Thanks. Did you find this review helpful? |

Give sorrow words; the grief that does not speak whispers the o'er-fraught heart and bids it break.
William Shakespeare
A mother's love is patient and forgiving when all others are forsaking, it never fails or falters, even though the heart is breaking
Helen Rice
He said to me, "It will always be difficult, but if you cry like this every time, you will die of heartbreak. Just know it is enough sometimes to know it is difficult."
Chris Abani
We none of us know what is going on in that strange man's mind. We all know the German desire as he has come out with in his book [Mein Kampf] to move East, and if he moves East, I shall not break my heart, but that is another thing. I do not believe he wants to move West, because West would be a very difficult programme for him ... If there is any fighting in Europe to be done, I should like to see the Bolsheviks and Nazis doing it.
Stanley Baldwin, 1st Earl Baldwin of Bewdley
He said to me, "It will always be difficult, but if you cry like this every time, you will die of heartbreak. Just know it is enough sometimes to know it is difficult."
Chris Abani
We have to let God's love break through the hard crust of our indifference, our spiritual weariness, our blind conformity to the spirit of this age. Only then can we let it ignite our imagination and shape our deepest desires. That is why prayer is so important: daily prayer, private prayer in the quiet of our hearts and before the Blessed Sacrament, and liturgical prayer in the heart of the Church.
Pope Benedict XVI
Thats always the hardest thing when someone completely has you fooled so much, that you think theyre just never going to hurt you, then they do. Thats when you get the worst heartbreak.
Taylor Swift
Wake up and smell the break up, fix my heart put on my makeup...another mess I didn't plan. And I'll bet you thought you beat me, wish you could only see, I've got an I
Taylor Swift
Why would you wanna break a perfectly good heart? Why would you wanna take our love and tear it all apart,now? Why would you wanna make the very first scar? Why would you wanna break a perfectly good heart?
Taylor Swift
There are so many different phases of stuttering, and it always breaks my heart. I always wish I could say, 'When I'm done hugging you . . . your stuttering will be gone.'

Many vehicles in recent times sport a catalytic converter or catcon-this unit transforms hazardous exhaust materials into materials that are less dangerous for the environment through a compound named a catalyst. Acquire a replacement unit immediately if your Volkswagen Passat catalytic converter is exhibiting indicators of degeneration or damage to avoid harmful chemicals from being emitted.
Some motorists disagree with installing a catalytic converter because these are believed to hinder the stream of exhaust, leading to reduced capabilities. Though certain old styles can restrict exhaust flow, many modern catalytic converters for your Volkswagen Passat will never reduce motor performance. Help keep your Volkswagen Passat atmosphere-safe and avoid charges by replacing your cat con if you discover that it is fractured or damaged, or if you notice climbing toxic emission readings and presence of carbon deposits. You shouldn't put your faith in low-quality items-constantly look for and purchase the top-quality catalytic converters for your Volkswagen Passat.
Fortunately, there are many catalytic converters offered in the market nowadays, with many famous makers to pick from including Walker, Ansa, or Eastern. We feature all the greatest finds on top-quality automotive components, including the Volkswagen Passat catalytic converter you are browsing for, so don't hesitate to order here at Parts Train.

Untethered tech: Wireless sensors monitor brain waves
A fighter pilot heads back to base after a long mission, feeling spent. A warning light flashes on the control panel. Has she noticed? If so, is she focused enough to fix the problem?
Thanks to current advances in electroencephalographic (EEG) brain-wave detection technology, military commanders may not have to guess the answers to these questions much longer. They could soon be monitoring her mental state via helmet sensors, looking for signs she is concentrating on her flying and reacting to the warning light.
This is possible because of two key advances that made EEG technology wireless and mobile, says … Read more

The Monkey HouseIn The Monkey House , Sarajevo is a city besieged by the atrocities of war. Stadium walls that once shook with the roar of Olympic crowds have since collapsed under the screams of artillery. Police Superintendent Rosso and the ragtag remains of his Sarajevo police force, however, remain dedicated to preserving what is left of the city's civil order. In their Sisyphean quest to uphold the law, one of their key informants is mysteriously murdered in a narcotics-infected Serb apartment complex called the "Monkey House." If the homicide is proven to be the work of Sarajevo's notorious crime boss, Luka, solving the case could break the black marketeer's grip on the city. But bringing Luka to justice could also drastically change the course of this relentless war and quite possibly lead to the fall of Sarajevo. For Rosso, a Croat whose Serbian wife is losing a battle with alcoholism and whose Moslem goddaughter may be having an affair with Luka, this case has become a life mission, not only to defeat a formidable enemy and to save his family and city, but also to redeem his own dark and bloody legacy. In The Monkey House the stakes are high for solving a wartime murder, and a young, cocky American journalist named Branson Flett is there to report it all. The Monkey House navigates a complex web of international politics and propaganda, supplying a ground-level view of the Bosnian conflict through a tale as real and hard as the war itself. |

Gators win third game in row
First-year Goose Creek High School boys basketball coach Blake Hall expected some bumps in the road.
His team has only had one so far, though, and has bounced back nicely.
The Gators defeated Berkeley 72-48 on Monday night for their third consecutive victory after starting the Hall era with a 57-55 overtime loss to Timberland on Dec. 4. They defeated Berkeley 53-41 a night later then blew out Hanahan 76-44 on Friday for the first two wins in the current streak.
Its going to be a growing experience, Hall said. Ive got three young men that have seen varsity court time. The rest of them are really inexperienced
you could see the shell shock in the first game.
Against Berkeley on Monday, the Gators used a 10-0 run at the end of the first half to build a 31-17 halftime advantage and continued to pull away over the final two periods. Dantez Bennamon led the way with 18 points, while Shaquille Patrick scored 11 points. Chris Singleton added nine points and forward Walter McNeil had eight points.
In the home win over the Hawks on Friday, Patrick led the way with 14 points. Bennamon and Kameron Robinson chipped in 12 points apiece. Jordan McElveen also reached double figures with 11, while Singleton scored eight points.
The kids are getting a little more comfortable, he said.
The Gators host Fort Dorchester on Wednesday night before traveling to Hanahan on Friday night. Halls team gets a second chance against Timberland at GCHS on Dec. 18.

Gilbert Magazine: we quarrel, you decide
When the pro-life organization Live Action conducted undercover sting operations in Planned Parenthood facilities last winter, it set off a storm of controversy — in the pro-life movement. While all applauded the exposure of Planned Parenthood's inherently repugnant practices, some objected that Live Action's tactics undermined the integrity of the pro-life movement. How divisive was it? For the first time since Gilbert Magazine began publishing unsigned editorials in 2003, our editorial board was too sharply divided to reach any sort of consensus.
To stave off violence and death threats, GM Publisher Dale Ahlquist sagely suggested that we write three editorials. GM contributing editor David Beresford was assigned to defend Live Action, I was assigned the rebuttal, with Dale himself batting cleanup. All three editorials, presented below, also will be in the March/April, 2011, issue of Gilbert Magazine, which went to press more than a week ago. Happy reading!
When can we lie? When the lie is not a lie
"Self-reverence, self-knowledge, self-control–these three alone will make a man a prig."—G.K. Chesterton in Manalive
First, let us be clear, that we believe that it is always wrong to lie. But what we argue here is that there is a technical and colloquial meaning of the word, and that these are different things.
Recently, Live Action held a sting operation in which Planned Parenthood employees were caught on undercover camera providing advice on how to break the law and obtain abortions for minors. Once the videos were released, the workers were fired. But instead of simple moral outrage over the tactics of Planned Parenthood, a different controversy arose over the tactics of Live Action and when it is morally permissible to lie. Here at Gilbert Magazine we are going to add our voices to the confusion.
In The Catholic Church and Conversion, G.K. Chesterton defends what was then understood as the Catholic position on lying in these words:
…it was absurd to say that Catholics introduced a horrible sophistry of saying that a man might sometimes tell a lie, since every sane man knows he would tell a lie to save a child from Chinese torturers; that it missed the whole point, in this connection, to quote Ward's phrase, "Make up your mind that you are justified in lying and then lie like a trooper," for Ward's argument was against equivocation or what people call Jesuitry. He meant, "When the child really is hiding in the cupboard and the Chinese torturers really are chasing him with red-hot pincers, then (and then only) be sure that you are right to deceive and do not hesitate to lie; but do not stoop to equivocate (our emphasis). Do not bother yourself to say, "The child is in a wooden house not far from here," meaning the cupboard; but say the child is in Chiswick or Chimbora zoo, or anywhere you choose."
"Do not stoop to equivocate" is the key point here. This paragraph, as far as we know, did not bring down the condemnation of the Catholic Church on Chesterton when he wrote it. (The book contains a Nihil Obstat and an Imprimatur.)
Chesterton makes the "do not stoop to equivocate" argument clear in The Man Who Was Thursday. Gabriel Syme is an undercover secret police spy. When questioned repeatedly, Syme denies that he is with the British police. Is his deception a lie?
The problem with many of the arguments that try to justify lying is that they come encumbered with emotionally charged situations in which some bad guys want to do unspeakably horrific things and a small evil must be created to do a great good. The person who insists on telling the truth at all costs is forced into a corner, and often becomes increasingly insistent to the degree that the temptation to tell a lie increases. This sort of moral gymnastics results in otherwise intelligent people criticizing the actions of Live Action in their fight against Planned Parenthood.
We reject this argument, and assert again that is always wrong to lie, but we do insist that we must know what a lie is. So, let us strip away the emotion, remove the heroism associated with refusing to lie even at the cost of great personal pain (usually someone else's) so that the issue can be made clear.
Suppose, for example a four-year-old girl comes to her father and shows him a crayon drawing of a cow. "Look at my cow, Daddy! Isn't it a good picture?"
What is the right response?
For literalist, truth-at-all-costs-and damn-the-consequences types, the situation is stripped of the heroic sacrifices associated with telling the strict truth, and reveals this position as that of a heel. "No, it is not good," they must answer. And shame on them.
The equivocators among us may want to craft a clever response with a mental reservation: "It is a wonderful picture and the colors are so bright!" Congratulations, this verbal dexterity will allow one
to maintain self-respect and fool the small child in the process by dodging the question. But, this is no better than the previous answer.
There is only one morally right answer, one answer that does not sin against charity, against duty, and against innocence: "That is the best picture of a cow I have ever seen!"
This is the only answer that is not encumbered by "self-reverence, self-knowledge, self-control." We do not know if it is lying or not, by definition. We do know that in this case equivocating is a disgusting pose almost as despicable as answering that the picture is no good.
Where does that leave us? Where we have always been, with a profound faith in the common sense of ordinary people: the natural law written on men's hearts. If mothers and fathers cannot rear children without daily having to choose between crushing a child's heart or telling what some call lies, then lying has become a meaningless term. In the same way, if men of good will cannot save the lives of children without being accused of lying, then again, lying has become a meaningless term.
The right and wrong of this is clear according to the natural law written in every man's heart. If theologians, philosophers, and moralists do not see it, then the love of truth is not in them.
—David Beresford, for the editorial board of Gilbert Magazine
A Lie is a Lie is a Lie
Whether Live Action resorted to lying in its stings last winter against Planned Parenthood can be dispensed with quickly. We know Live Action lied because its most ardent defenders say it did. If no less an authority than Peter Kreeft says Live Action lied, then we will take him at his word, and leave the equivocation and sophistry to others who wish to pretend otherwise.
In January, the pro-life group Live Action conducted undercover stings against numerous Planned Parenthood facilities, filming the stings with hidden cameras. In the videos, a man and a woman posing as a pimp and a prostitute gain access to Planned Parenthood clinics. In consultation with a Planned Parenthood worker, they seek advice on obtaining checkups for prostitutes, including underage prostitutes—said medical "care" to include contraception and, if necessary, abortions, all in violation of federal and state laws.
The videos, and the blithe complicity of Planned Parenthood employees in the unspeakably appalling evils of abortion and teen prostitution, are repugnant.
We do not doubt the sincerity of Live Action's commitment to the pro-life cause. They are clearly trying to do good. Their end is laudable. But we cannot condone the means they use of getting at the truth. Since when do we use the tactics of the enemy to defeat the enemy?
How do Live Action's supporters defend this? They turn to G.K. Chesterton. Yes, Chesterton. They point to a passage in The Catholic Church and Conversion in which Chesterton appears to defend lying "to save a child from Chinese torturers." But in context, Chesterton's purpose is to expose Protestant falsehoods—i.e., lies—about the Catholic Church, as well as to condemn equivocation—not because equivocation contains an element of truth, but because equivocation is far too close to lying.
But would Chesterton, in his life and in his massive body of work, stand for lying? In this false "Chesterton vs. the Church" dichotomy, we already see the corrosive effect of lying for a good cause—those who defend lying compromise the clarity of their thought and their relation to the truth, even the truths found in the writings of Chesterton.
Chesterton cherished the common sense of the common man. But he also knew that ordinary common sense could take one only so far, and that in a dilemma such as this, one must seek a higher authority: the Catholic Church.
What does the Catholic Church say? The Catechism of the Catholic Church reminds us that Jesus denounced lying as the work of the devil. Furthermore:
A good intention (for example, that of helping one's neighbor) does not make behavior that is intrinsically disordered, such as lying and calumny, good or just. The end does not justify the means.
And finally:
By its very nature, lying is to be condemned. It is a profanation of speech, whereas the purpose of speech is to communicate known truth to others. The deliberate intention of leading a neighbor into error by saying things contrary to the truth constitutes a failure in justice and charity.
A failure in justice and charity. To our neighbor. Who is our neighbor? Like it or not, Planned Parenthood employees are our neighbor. Planned Parenthood is evil, yes, but its employees? Did Live Action ever wonder who they are, or even see them as people? The irony here is that they work at Planned Parenthood not because they are evil, but because, possibly, they have been lied to. How does Live Action help them by lying to them also? As Christians, it is our duty to be salt and light, to present these people with opportunities for virtue rather than opportunities for more evil. They have souls too, souls already in grave danger of eternal damnation. Should we be helping to send them to hell?
"We have to touch such men, not with a barge pole, but with a benediction," Chesterton once wrote, speaking through Fr. Brown. Or as he wrote, also in The Catholic Church and Conversion, "We do not really want a religion that is right where we are right. What we want is a religion that is right where we are wrong."
Proof-texting Chesterton is one thing. Proof-texting the Bible is another, especially to defend lying. Yet some point to Bible passages as justification for lying in some instances. God rewards the Jewish midwives in Exodus, who had lied to Pharaoh, and James praises Rahab the Harlot. But for the proper interpretation of those texts, we appeal to St. Thomas Aquinas, who says these women were honored because they feared God, not because they lied. Also, James does not praise Rahab's lie, but her faith. Beyond that, we urge people who think they can use Sacred Scripture to defend lying to take it up with the Holy Spirit, for the sakes of their own souls.
For those who think that we need to lie to defeat Planned Parenthood, there was another sting against them at the end of March. This time, Planned Parenthood's claim that it needs federal funding because it provides mammograms to the poor was exposed as the lie it is. The sting? People simply called Planned Parenthood offices around the country to ask about mammograms, only to be told that Planned Parenthood does not do mammograms. The organization behind the sting? Live Action.
You do not have to lie to stop Planned Parenthood.
—Sean P. Dailey, for the editorial board of Gilbert Magazine
The Gilbert Magazine editorial began several years ago as an unsigned piece that represented the position of the editorial board. These essays were mostly written by individual members of the board and tinkered with by the others until a consensus could be reached. Lately, we have been printing signed pieces by different individuals, but these also continue to be written on behalf of and with the approval of the editorial board.
As you can tell from the two editorials presented in this issue, however, the board is not in agreement on the matter of the Live Action sting on Planned Parenthood. While all agree that the operations of Planned Parenthood are truly beneath contempt and deserve not only to be exposed but to be expunged, there is a fundamental disagreement about the undercover tactics used by Live Action to reveal the level of corruption within the walls of these clinics.
Activist James O'Keefe had great success with a similar hidden camera sting of ACORN that led to government defunding of that organization; there were many who hoped that the exposure of Planned Parenthood's blatant disregard for the law would lead lawmakers to eliminate the huge public subsidies that have been poured into it. No such luck. Perhaps the saddest part of the story is that Planned Parenthood was not defunded but defended. Perhaps our debate in these pages is irrelevant: right or wrong, Live Action's undercover work was apparently all for naught.
But as this is Chesterton's magazine, it is our duty to explain G.K. Chesterton's perspective on the matter.
To glean his opinion of current events, we have to find something that serves as a parallel from his time. Planned Parenthood has its roots in the Eugenics movement that Chesterton wrote about extensively. If we were to substitute the word "Abortionist" for "Eugenist" in the following passage, we could catch Chesterton's chillingly accurate description of the extent of Planned Parenthood's power and influence today:
Eugenists are not popular; but the Government of this country cares less and less for popular support. Eugenics cannot argue: but the decisions of [Congress] are less and less determined by argument, more and more determined by arrangement…The weakness of the Eugenic sect is an intellectual weakness. They do, indeed, go against a man's moral conscience and almost against his physical instincts…But the excuse of the Eugenist is never clear, even as an excuse. The sacrifice of the Eugenist has no meaning even as a sacrifice. The strong standing paradox of their position is their peculiar power in government and their peculiar weaknessin discussion.
But how to topple the beast? How to expose not just his weakness but his filth? How to infiltrate his lair? Live Action did infiltrate Planned Parenthood and did expose its filth. "Good!" said the Pro-Lifers. But some added, "If only there had been a more truthful way to get at the truth."
Chesterton is clear on one point for our discussion: equivocating is worse than lying. It is being honest in an attempt to deceive. This mental reservation Chesterton calls "Jesuitry." There is, however, a form of deception, a role-playing, which, while unsavory, is distinct from lying. It is spying, and Chesterton admits that spying is a nasty business. But he also says that spying is one of the horrors of war. The fact that we are in a war should not be dismissed: it is the worst sort of war, for it is a civil war, a war without territory, a culture war: the logical result of what Chesterton calls "the interentanglement of modern civilization."
It is also an information war. The good folks at Live Action have been reduced to spying in order to get information and convey that information to the world. At the very least they are investigating news that the media should be covering, or rather, uncovering. For this reason Live Action's agents are despised as informers. Ironically, a journalist is supposed to inform. Instead an informer does. Chesterton observes, "A common informer may be paid if he tells the truth. A common journalist will be ruined if he does."
But more importantly than doing what the Press is supposed to be doing, Live Action is doing what the police are supposed to be doing: uncovering crimes. Ultimately, it is a matter of taking justice into one's own hand when the official branch of justice is apparently broken. And here Chesterton would applaud. Live Action represents the "honourable passions" of the public, though such passions may be undisciplined and such human judgments not always trustworthy. But, adds Chesterton, "It is enough to say that they are human judgments; in the sense that they are instinctive, ethical, and completely sincere. And it is enough to say the judgments in nearly all our Law Courts are inhuman judgments; not in the sense that they are cruel, but in the sense that they are cold, crushing, accidental, and meaningless."
I do not think Chesterton would be drawn into our argument as it presently stands; rather he would draw us all out of it in order to see the bigger picture. He would offer an even more provocative perspective, inspiring us all to action, to bring the light of truth to a dark world and justice to those who are least able to defend themselves.

The Chick Lit trappings are most obvious in the heroine's introduction. We meet Tanzy Harrington, a writer whose "Sex and the City" type columns have all of San Francisco buzzing, as she chats with her girlfriends at a charity bowling event. Tanzy is the last single woman in the group and proud of it, a confirmed bad boy addict who sees no benefits to limiting herself to boring marital sex. Talking to her newly married friends gives her lots of fodder for her column - and thus is born the dichotomy between Wolves and Sheep. Tanzy can't understand why women settle for dependable, responsible Sheep guys when they could be having fabulous Wolf sex instead. She would rather have a nooner with an alpha Wolf than be forced to compromise who she is and what she wants in order to have a long-term relationship with a Sheep.
When Tanzy takes up temporary residence in the home of her wealthy Great-Aunt Millicent, she has the opportunity to confirm her theory. Aunt Millicent's new assistant, Riley Parrish, appears to be the "Sheepmaster" with his generic looks, thick glasses and stilted conversation. Again, though, looks are deceiving. Riley has been hired by Millicent to protect her niece and uncover the identity of the person who is sending Tanzy a series of disturbing e-mails. A former NFL cornerback, Riley has adopted his Sheep disguise to keep Tanzy at a distance and to help him maintain his objectivity. But it's impossible to constantly sustain the façade, and Tanzy keeps catching tantalizing sneak peeks of the real Riley. Surprisingly, Tanzy finds herself attracted to Riley's more sensitive features as well. Maybe having someone around with mutton-type qualities isn't such a bad prospect. But when Tanzy's stalker finally makes a move, will it be Riley the Sheep or Riley the Wolf who comes to the rescue?
It's really a matter of semantics, I guess, whether you consider Big Bad Wolf a Chick Lit book or not, but in my experience Chick Lit books are a bit more hip and cool than this novel. They may include a relationship for the heroine, but it's only one of several subplots and it's usually tinged with a touch of cynicism. The Big Bad Wolf Tells All, however, is unabashedly romantic. The delightful hero and heroine are surprised to find that they are vulnerable to genuine emotions, but they don't fight the feeling for long or create artificial barriers because they've been hurt in the past. They talk openly and don't keep secrets from each other. Even Riley's revelation about his true identity is handled without anger and recrimination. Without those forced conflicts, Tanzy and Riley are free to slowly fall in love and revel in the experience, taking the reader along for the ride and reminding us why we read romance novels. Even without the emotional baggage, the hero and heroine learn and grow from their experience. Tanzy learns she can maintain her independence but still lean on someone, and Riley learns that he can fulfill obligations without losing himself in the process.
The novel isn't without its flaws. The suspense subplot is underdeveloped, and the climax leaves several questions unanswered. Kauffman's writing skills still haven't quite caught up with her creativity and enthusiasm, although they've definitely improved in the three years that I've been reviewing her work. She has a frustrating habit of using the same expression over and over ad nauseum; both Tanzy and Riley are prone to saying "damn if…" every few pages: "Damn if he didn't understand exactly why men threw themselves willingly under those spike heels of hers..." "Damn if the man didn't have a chest under those suits..." "Damn if those roughly spoken words hadn't done her in…" etc. The novel included enough "damns" to keep a colony of beavers busy for the next hundred years!
But damn if I didn't enjoy myself anyway. It's obvious that Donna Kauffman believes in love, and in its power to make us better people. That may be too corny for a Chick Lit book but it made The Big Bad Wolf Tells All a memorable romance.
