WashPost's Sally Quinn Finds No Pleasure in Church's Teaching on Masturbation
By Ken Shepherd | June 08, 2012 | 13:13
Sister Margaret Farley probably would have had Sally Quinn's respect when she endorsed same-sex marriage in her 2006 book Just Love, which has recently been denounced by the Vatican as unsuitable for use in Catholic theological or moral instruction due to its various departures from Church teaching.
But by golly, it's the Church's rebuke of Farley's defense of masturbation that Quinn thinks is her ticket to convincing her audience that the Church has lost its mind. From her June 7 On Faith blog post "Fifty Shades of Catholicism" (emphases mine):
Masturbation, says the Vatican "is an intrinsically and gravely disordered action." Homosexual acts are "intrinsically disordered" and approving gay marriage would show approval of "deviant behavior."
Is masturbation where they really want to throw down the gauntlet? How many priests, bishops or cardinals could stand with a hand on the Bible and swear they have never masturbated?
Is the human body not to be admired? Why shouldn't our own bodies give us pleasure? The contorted thinking of these celibate men is causing the church to lose followers, including many women.
There are those faithful who would criticize Sister Margaret for writing what she did, suggesting that if she couldn't follow the doctrine of the church she and all other rebellious nuns should just quit and start a church of their own --an idea that has some merit. But the idea of sticking it out and fighting from within also has appeal. And remember: If women had more power in the church, none of these frivolous attacks would be happening.
Of course, the Church isn't arguing that clergy have never transgressed by masturbating, and in fact, that's the whole notion of sin. As fallible, sinful human beings, we are called to recognize, repent of, and refrain from sinful behavior. Nor is the Church teaching that sexual pleasure is in and of itself wrong, something Quinn would know if she actually engaged the Church on its teachings by researching its catechism.
Based on Jesus's teaching that the sixth commandment -- Thou shall not commit adultery -- is violated in the heart when one lusts after another, the Church's catechism explores the call of Christians to chastity and breaks down what that looks like vis-a-vis sexual lust, masturbation, pornography and other sexual practices that run afoul of Christian sexual ethics.
You'll see from the following excerpt (emphases mine) that the Church's concern is not primarily with forbidding sexual pleasure but rather directing the enjoyment of sexual pleasure towards its God-ordained, God-glorifying ends within the union of holy matrimony. Secondly, you'll notice a fundamental ethical concern for not sinning against other human beings by misusing the good gift of sex that God has given humans to enjoy in marriage:
2336 Jesus came to restore creation to the purity of its origins. In the Sermon on the Mount, he interprets God's plan strictly: "You have heard that it was said, 'You shall not commit adultery.' But I say to you that every one who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart."123 What God has joined together, let not man put asunder.124
The tradition of the Church has understood the sixth commandment as encompassing the whole of human sexuality.
The integrality of the gift of self
2346 Charity is the form of all the virtues. Under its influence, chastity appears as a school of the gift of the person. Self-mastery is ordered to the gift of self. Chastity leads him who practices it to become a witness to his neighbor of God's fidelity and loving kindness.
2347 The virtue of chastity blossoms in friendship. It shows the disciple how to follow and imitate him who has chosen us as his friends,134 who has given himself totally to us and allows us to participate in his divine estate. Chastity is a promise of immortality.
Chastity is expressed notably in friendship with one's neighbor. Whether it develops between persons of the same or opposite sex, friendship represents a great good for all. It leads to spiritual communion.
The various forms of chastity
2348 All the baptized are called to chastity. The Christian has "put on Christ,"135 the model for all chastity. All Christ's faithful are called to lead a chaste life in keeping with their particular states of life. At the moment of his Baptism, the Christian is pledged to lead his affective life in chastity.
2349 "People should cultivate [chastity] in the way that is suited to their state of life. Some profess virginity or consecrated celibacy which enables them to give themselves to God alone with an undivided heart in a remarkable manner. Others live in the way prescribed for all by the moral law, whether they are married or single."136 Married people are called to live conjugal chastity; others practice chastity in continence:
There are three forms of the virtue of chastity: the first is that of spouses, the second that of widows, and the third that of virgins. We do not praise any one of them to the exclusion of the others. . . . This is what makes for the richness of the discipline of the Church.137
2350 Those who are engaged to marry are called to live chastity in continence. They should see in this time of testing a discovery of mutual respect, an apprenticeship in fidelity, and the hope of receiving one another from God. They should reserve for marriage the expressions of affection that belong to married love. They will help each other grow in chastity.
Offenses against chastity
2351 Lust is disordered desire for or inordinate enjoyment of sexual pleasure. Sexual pleasure is morally disordered when sought for itself, isolated from its procreative and unitive purposes.
2352 By masturbation is to be understood the deliberate stimulation of the genital organs in order to derive sexual pleasure. "Both the Magisterium of the Church, in the course of a constant tradition, and the moral sense of the faithful have been in no doubt and have firmly maintained that masturbation is an intrinsically and gravely disordered action."138 "The deliberate use of the sexual faculty, for whatever reason, outside of marriage is essentially contrary to its purpose." For here sexual pleasure is sought outside of "the sexual relationship which is demanded by the moral order and in which the total meaning of mutual self-giving and human procreation in the context of true love is achieved."139
To form an equitable judgment about the subjects' moral responsibility and to guide pastoral action, one must take into account the affective immaturity, force of acquired habit, conditions of anxiety or other psychological or social factors that lessen, if not even reduce to a minimum, moral culpability.
2353 Fornication is carnal union between an unmarried man and an unmarried woman. It is gravely contrary to the dignity of persons and of human sexuality which is naturally ordered to the good of spouses and the generation and education of children. Moreover, it is a grave scandal when there is corruption of the young.
2354 Pornography consists in removing real or simulated sexual acts from the intimacy of the partners, in order to display them deliberately to third parties. It offends against chastity because it perverts the conjugal act, the intimate giving of spouses to each other. It does grave injury to the dignity of its participants (actors, vendors, the public), since each one becomes an object of base pleasure and illicit profit for others. It immerses all who are involved in the illusion of a fantasy world. It is a grave offense. Civil authorities should prevent the production and distribution of pornographic materials.
2355 Prostitution does injury to the dignity of the person who engages in it, reducing the person to an instrument of sexual pleasure. The one who pays sins gravely against himself: he violates the chastity to which his Baptism pledged him and defiles his body, the temple of the Holy Spirit.140 Prostitution is a social scourge. It usually involves women, but also men, children, and adolescents (The latter two cases involve the added sin of scandal.). While it is always gravely sinful to engage in prostitution, the imputability of the offense can be attenuated by destitution, blackmail, or social pressure.
2356 Rape is the forcible violation of the sexual intimacy of another person. It does injury to justice and charity. Rape deeply wounds the respect, freedom, and physical and moral integrity to which every person has a right. It causes grave damage that can mark the victim for life. It is always an intrinsically evil act. Graver still is the rape of children committed by parents (incest) or those responsible for the education of the children entrusted to them.
The long and short of it is abstaining from masturbation -- as well as pornography, which usually aids in same -- is ultimately about loving our neighbor and loving God by honoring Him with our bodies. That's the teaching and tradition of the Church which Sister Margaret Farley most certainly should be aware, as a professor emerita of Christian ethics and a sister who has pledged fidelity and obedience to the Church's teachings.
Quinn, a professed agnostic, takes it upon herself to rebuke the Church for doing its job by defending its doctrine. That's all well and good, but if she's going to do so, she should try to address the material with more substance and less pedestrian bluster.

No, Sally, masturbation is where YOU want to throw down the gauntlet, because you think it's an easy one to ridicule.
Sin is not decided by the frequency with which it occurs in the population.
And Christ never promised that His Church, being populated by human beings, would be perfect. He only promised that it would endure.

None of these people have a clue what religion is. They seem to think it's a social club.
OK so let's say someone approaches the church and they truly want to commit themselves to a life of selfless charity to the church and its teachings. If the church has already set the bar so low to accommodate people who are not going to commit fully then what is this poor fellow going to do? How will he even be challenged? The so-called outdated teachings that the uncommitted want changed so that they feel comfortable are there for a reason, to elevate those who wish to take the path of faith, discipline and reaching beyond the self.
So if you want to masturbate, fine, go ahead. That's your choice. But if you want to follow a religious path that is dificult but transformative then their are institutions who will guide you.

. yes, the Church teaches masturbation is a sin which we must do everything within our power to abstain from. Does this mean that priests, bishops, practicing Catholics do not fall into sin? that we are perfect? Of course not! Amusing how illogical anti-Catholics are.
Again, if you do not like the Catholic teaching on sexuality, by golly, move on! create your own religion. But why attempt to force the Church to bow down to your personal opinions?
And as Ken Sheperd show, Sally Quinn is being extremely simplistic and ignorant in her article which most Liberals are in their anti-Catholic arguments.

Ken Shepherd,

It is amazing how lazy Liberal "journalists" are.
What is also amusing is how Liberal "journalists" love to pontificate and tell us all what is moral and immoral. Yet, how they hate it when the Church teaches Her flock what She considers Moral and Immoral.

Anyway, what is Sally Quinn's beef? If she doesn't like Catholic teaching on sexuality she doesn't have to be a Roman Catholic, right? I am unsure what the point of her article is other than for media to go after one of their favorite punching bags which they deem is not cool or in.

Sally and all liberals are at odds with christianty because christianity is based on moral absolutes and liberals cannot abide moral absolutes. Right now the catholic church is their whipping boy, but sooner or later a preacher will go astray and it will be his turn at the stake. As humans we all fail and they're waiting like the vultures they are.

"Why shouldn't our own bodies give us pleasure?"
Its ridiculous to argue its our bodies giving us pleasure, the better part of arousal is mental. You're giving yourself pleasure, your body isn't giving it to you. The question she's asking sums up everything wrong with the modern view of sexuality -- irrational.
The traditional view of this is not that you're going to go to hell for doing it, but it shouldn't be looked at as a positive thing, its habit-forming like any other personal vice. Asking what's wrong with masturbating is like asking what's wrong with snacking on fattening treats when you have the munchies or whats wrong with watching a lot of junk on TV when you want to avoid work... Even priests have a midnight snack once in a while, and watch TV to avoid work, it can't be bad! Midnight snacking and watching TV is just our bodies giving us pleasure.

Freshmen and transfer students should look at The Scholar's Guide to Binghamton University (.pdf, 385kb) by Daniel Winegard. Although it is not necessary to declare your major as a freshman, we do recommend you follow the recommended schedule as you are choosing your classes.
It is important for transfer students to speak with an advisor as soon as they can, especially if they are transferring in as juniors. See below for information on how to meet with an advisor.
We recommend that students who are interested in becoming a biochemistry major first speak to a peer advisor. Contact Kurnvir Singh (firstname.lastname@example.com) or Sophie Russ (email@example.com) for an appointment. A peer advisor will answer most of the questions you have about which classes to take, and when to take them, more accurately than faculty. Students are the best resource simply because they have more first hand knowledge of the rest of the university than faculty.
If you would rather speak to a faculty advisor, the director of the program is Dr. Susan Bane and the assistant to the director is Maura Loew.
Dr. Bane has office hours in Science II 320:
Maura's office hour in Science II 313
If you would like to declare a major in biochemistry, we ask that you fill out the forms below and schedule a meeting with a peer advisor before meeting with the director.

Using Web 2.0 Tools and Social Media to Help in Times of Disaster
As the world continues to watch and react to the tragic earthquake and tsunami in Japan, communities far and wide are assessing their own systems of disaster alert and preparedness. While we may not be able to predict when natural disasters occur, we can and should use modern technology to improve our ability to bring help where it's needed most. To this end, you can make a donation to the Red Cross here.
We've seen how Web 2.0 tools like Facebook and Twitter can help people exchange information in times of crises – even in areas not as technologically advanced as we are here in San Francisco. We've seen systems like Reverse 911 protect countless lives by sending targeted phone calls informing people of impending dangers. And, we've seen millions of dollars in relief aide delivered in places like Haiti and Chile through online donations or simple text messages that donate $10 instantly.
While these are all extremely important uses of available technology, the primary focus during a disaster is keeping people at the epicenter safe – often the most difficult task during an earthquake, tsunami, hurricane or other disaster.
That's why open government and the tools of User Generated Public Safety are so incredibly important.
Here in San Francisco, along with the disaster preparedness program 72hours.org, the City has also developed a text message alert system called AlertSF. This service delivers "24/7 emergency information to your wireless device." It takes just a moment to register but the benefits could be immeasurable. If the site asks for verification to open, allow it because it's a safe website and has life-saving potential.
In the age of 24-hour news networks and the unlimited resources of the Internet, Web 2.0 tools and social media, it's often hard to imagine being unaware of a disaster occurring in your area. But that's not a chance the City of San Francisco is taking with its citizens. Services like AlertSF are prime examples of government doing its job and as citizens we should do our job and sign up.
The horrific events in Haiti, Japan and other areas around the world remind us that there is no such thing as being "too prepared." And the seemingly limitless technological tools available to us should all be employed wherever and whenever possible. The fact is that information – especially during the chaos of a natural disaster – can truly save lives. Let's use all the tools we can to stay in touch, learn, give and help. Because next time, it could be us.
Social media in emergency?
After the crisis in Japan, it makes a person think of what to do in an emergency. San Francisco is known not only for its culture, but its topography. Our 7 by 7 miles is between an ocean and a bay and sits on landfill and bedrock. Without a doubt, residents have thought of how to prepare for an earthquake when they decided to take up residence in San Francisco.
Effective government is more important than ever in natural disasters. The ability for government to streamline and efficiently get out and in resources is crucial. Resources like 311 and www.72hours.org are very helpful and necessary to get information out. Department of Emergency Management is ready and waiting.
Having said that, we have twitter, facebook, and every social media outlet at our fingertips, what would be the most effective way to use that in crisis? In many cases, phone and electricity, let alone, broadband would not be accessible, but if it were, how is it best to use this resource? Better yet, should cities contract with social media outlets to help in case of emergency prepardness?

Chris Martin gives it to the ladies
Singer Christopher Martin's performance at Usain Bolt's Tracks and Records club last Tuesday was all about the ladies.
The artiste who came to prominence through the Digicel Rising Stars talent contest, was performing in the Behind The Screen series at the popular watering hole and eatery.
Martin's 70-minute set was dedicated to the women in his life — the screaming female fans, his friends celebrating birthdays, his mother and his two young daughters.
And for every dedication, Martin had the appropriate song from his growing catalogue.
Backed by a five-piece band, he was in fine form from the get-go, which came just after 11:00 pm.
The opening act included Party Live, Jamaican Girl, Driver, capped by his rendition of If I Were a Carpenter — made popular in Jamaica by John Holt.
In between banter with his ladies, Martin drops more hits. Take My Wings (his contribution to Arif Cooper's Guardian Angel rhythm), the popular Paper Loving and Prettiest Thing, one of his new tracks.
Bruno Mars' Amazing, a medley of Beenie Man and Bounty Killer tracks were followed by a string of classic R&B tracks from Al Green and Marvin Gaye.
His renediton of Gaye's Let's Get It On and Sexual Healing, which were dedicated to ladies celebrating birthdays, went over very well.
Martin does not relent, and at this point, he has the full attention of his audience, dropping his current hit Chill Spot, as well as Cheater's Prayer and Real Friends.
The next segment is for his mother and daughters. He dedicates Mama to his mother then gets emotional as he prepares to deliver The Killer Inside, a track exploring the horrors of sexual abuse against children.
Martin, among the top acts produced by Rising Stars, has clearly matured in terms of voice quality and stage presence.
Shows like Behind the Screen allows an artiste to show what they are made of and Chris Martin delivered.
The series continues next Tuesday and features I-Octane.

On Friday afternoon, free agent NFL quarterback Colt Brennan was involved in a car accident. He has reportedly been taken to a hospital and listed in serious condition. From Hawaii's KHON-2:
Colt Brennan injured in vehicle crash on the Big Island. Reportedly in serious condition at a Kona hospital.
Police sources say the car Colt Brennan was in crossed the centerline and hit another vehicle head on.
Brennan, age 27, was drafted in the sixth round of the 2008 draft by the Washington Redskins after a record-breaking collegiate career as Hawaii's quarterback. He looked very sharp in the 2008 preseason for the Redskins, but injuries have prevented him from throwing a single pass in the NFL regular season. The Oakland Raiders signed him in August of this year only to cut him in September.
We certainly hope the best for Brennan. As soon as we learn more on his condition, we'll update this StoryStream.

Nothing says spring in Vermont like mud. And now a new website is offering real-time mud season road conditions in southern Vermont.
The Brattleboro Public Works Department has created an interactive online map with color-coded road conditions. The Brattleboro Reformer reports workers will drive the roads daily and rate them either good, fair, poor or closed.
They say it will help commuters and emergency responders decide their route. We have a link to the online map here: http://www.arcgis.com/home/webmap/viewer.html?webmap=91d2b5efd6b14db295fe66445ba07247&extent=-72.7846,42.7947,-72.5069,42.9296

Many families in Tennessee joke that football is religion, but this is no joke. One local high school matchup is so big, some churches are actually rescheduling their services this weekend.
"I know this is going to be a once in a lifetime event for the kids. And we're just crazy about it. We're excited," said the Rev. Dan Cooke, preaching minister at Station Camp Church.
The church usually has Sunday service at 10 a.m. at Station Camp Elementary.
But this Sunday, the service will instead be at 5 p.m. so families can watch the football game between Station Camp and Beech high schools.
The teams will play before a national audience on Sunday at 11 a.m. on ESPN2.
"It's just a big deal. It's a big deal for our student body, big deal for our school and a big deal for our communities," said Station Camp athletic director Mike Hayes.
Tickets are $6, and Hayes estimates a crowd of 6,000 to 8,000 at the game.

The Springdale Chargers couldn't wait for their second football game this season.
The Chargers, who were routed by Tekoa-Oaksdale in their season opener two weeks ago, scored the first time they touched the ball, a 58-yard punt return by Shane O'Malley in a 48-0 win over Liberty (0-3) on Friday.
Unfortunately, O'Malley's punt return was called back by a clipping penalty. It did not matter, since Mitch Peone legally scored a 45-yard run two plays later and the Chargers were in control the rest of the way.
Head coach Mark Edwards said the extra week off really helped since it allowed him to get a half-dozen players back in action. He also used the two weeks as a teaching tool for a team that relies on four freshmen at various times during the game.
"We're young and those young guys are going to make mistakes," he said.
Already up 8-0, the Chargers needed five plays to find the endzone the second time they got the ball. The 42-yard drive, set up by a Daniel Peone interception, was capped off on a 16-yard run by senior Taylor DeGraaf.
The Chargers rolled up 228 yards on the ground in the first half as they took a 29-0 lead into the locker room at halftime.
Liberty, hampered by three turnovers, was limited to 73 total yards in the game.
"I thought we swarmed really well," Edwards said on the Chargers' defensive effort.
"Tonight we were together as a team and played a little football," added senior quarterback/linebacker Hunter Hedequist.
Any chance of a Liberty comeback was snuffed on the first play of the third quarter when Springdale junior Emmanuel Welch took the second half kickoff 73 yards for a touchdown.
Welch scored on a 25-yard run two plays after Hedequist recovered a fumble to increase the lead to 41-0 with 9:50 left in the third quarter.
Hedequist, making his second varsity start at quarterback last week, finished 5 of 9 passing for 52 yards.
"I was a little nervous," said Hedequist on the first game, "but I was ready to have a good year."
The Chargers will travel to Ritzville 7 p.m. Friday. The Broncos (3-0) defeated Kittitas 36-13 in non-league game last week.

Free software developers guarantee everyone equal rights to their programs; any user can study the source code of a free program, modify it, and share it. By contrast, most software carries licenses, patents and agreements that deny us these basic rights.
Because it is transparent, free software is hard to use for surveillance. This makes it a crucial defence against invasions of privacy by the NSA and the world's big Internet and telecommunications companies. The FSF is building a movement to develop and expand the existing library of free software tools that everyone can use to make the NSA's job harder. In addition, we are continuing to grow the work that we have done for almost thirty years to promote and defend all free software:

Hello my Fellow Developers,
After using Carbide Express for more then 2 Months, I feel as if a Lifetime has passed and that a lot has been learnt from this fascinating tool. However, there has been one issue that has been bugging me for quite some time and I would like to see if some one has faced similar issues or, better yet, found a better solution then mine.
How can anyone transfer his\her project to another computer or save different versions of his project in Carbide Express. To be more explicit, I have created a project in Carbide and keep saving my progress. I do this by either exporting as an archive or as a filesystem. the problem comes when I wish to bring my saved work back into Carbide!!!
I know Project specefication files are not supported (such as mmp files, cant wait for that improvemnt to come along in carbide). The only way I have been able to load my projects back in with different names is by the following steps
1 Open a simple Hello world Project
2. Delet all files in the project ( such as *.cpp,*.hrh,*.loc,*.rss ,*.h etc)
3. Now import your previous version
4. Go into the properties and add all libraries needed ( this step really s*cks )
And so I have my prject loaded back in Carbide Express....Whew. this definitly is in-efficient and cumbersome. Kind of leaves a sour taste after all the sweetness Carbide has given to us!!!.
So if anyone finds this way helpful, he is most welcome . And if anyone has a better way then kindly post it here for everyone else.
Finally, when is Carbide Developer coming out. Any Beta testing going on in which I could take part.

INDICE+ S.A.'s "Holy Grail" of the golf game uses vibrational signals through the user's mobile device for precise tee off, potentially making the need for bunkers obsolete
BRUSSELS, June 12, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- INDICE+ S.A. announces the immediate availability of Mobile Golf Tempo v1.5, its golfing app for Android and now also for iOS.
Photo - http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20140611/117094
The updated app is an effective and easy way for the tempo of the pros to take root in the swing of any golfer, and by doing so, significantly enhance consistency and gain more distance off the tee.
By simply reacting to audial or vibrational signals delivered through their mobile device, the golfer can begin the backswing, start the downswing, and make impact with the golf ball at precisely the correct tempo and timing.
Generating audio files in WAV format on the fly, this update offers greater precision compared to the previous version. It also provides some innovative functionalities such as exporting audio sequences corresponding to the tempo of the golfer and can be used on a tiny music player for example.
Handling is easy, just as access to precise swing settings, with notably the possibility to adjust the human reaction time to sound.
In addition, the app is helpful for golfers, such as seniors, who may not strive for a professional tempo swing. Mobile Golf Tempo offers a range of alternate tempos that still respects correct swing ratios (the ratio of the measured time it takes to make the backswing as compared to the downswing through impact).
Golf Tempo training aids have been validated by independent scientific studies* at the Departments of Physics and Biomechanics at Yale University and Oklahoma State University. Mobile Golf Tempo improves tempo and accuracy for every club in the bag from driver to putter.
(*) Scientific studies: http://arxiv.org/ftp/physics/papers/0611/0611291.pdf and http://www.sportsbalance.com/pdf/sport-coach-ncaa.pdf
Availability and price
Mobile Golf Tempo v1.5 is available for download on the App Store and Google Play store, at the attractive price of 9.99 USD
Mobile Golf Tempo Trial, a free trial version of Mobile Golf Tempo v1.5 is available only on Google Play.

It's a pun. We describe people as square when we think they are not cool, hip, trendy, perhaps even that they are a bit boring. This woman was more than just square, she wasn't even a square square! "Parallelogram" is not a word we generally use to describe people in English. The author was making a joke.

1) Eagerly supporting/funding study for the commuter train from McMinnville to Portland that did not have any chance of happening.
2) Funding the Newberg-Dundee bypass at a level greater than Newberg and Dundee combined even though there would be a shortfall in funding McMinnville street maintenance.
3) Never in the last three decades taking a stand against the mismanagement of PERS and now wanting money to cover PERS costs.
Really? I guess the question is - how is that any different than what has been happening for the last 30 years?
However, people like to think they can have their cake and eat it too. They like to think if they just root out all of the supposed waste, there will be lots of money left to meet their personal priorities. So we feel compelled to remind them of reality.
Nearly every level of government ( or public-funded entity) will claim slim, but the truth does not coincide with that assessment.
The article states the city has raised fees (or licenses) and cutting staff. So the reality these days is we are already paying more and getting less. Not much more room to wiggle, don't you think?

Breaking Fuel From the Rock
Geologists long knew there was natural gas in the Marcellus shale formation, but thought it impossible to unlock. But producers in the last decade learned to mine this huge resource by drilling horizontally to reach a large surface area, then fracturing the rock with high-pressure water, sand, and lubricant chemicals.View Interactive »

With just one win from its four teams, the AFC South did not look like one of the stronger divisions in the NFL. For several of those teams, those losses came with injuries to key players.
The Tennessee Titans got hit the hardest in their 34-13 loss to the New England Patriots. The Titans' starting quarterback, Jake Locker, left the game on Sunday with a mild left shoulder separation. With the injury coming to his non-throwing arm, the Titans expect him back for Week 2, according to The Tennessean.
On the same play that Locker got hurt, receiver Nate Washington suffered a leg injury. The severity of the injury is unclear right now, according to Titans Online.
On the defensive side of the ball, linebacker Colin McCarthy was in a walking boot after the game, says The Tennessean. But McCarthy said he just tweaked his ankle and is fine.
For the Jacksonville Jaguars, it wasn't a great day for Rashad Jennings, who suffered a knee injury and saw Maurice Jones-Drew come back strong. While the Jaguars don't think the injury is serious, according to The Florida Times-Union, he should still lose a chunk of his carries going forward.
The Indianapolis Colts saw Dwight Freeney leave with an ankle injury, and his status for Week 2 is up in the air. An MRI is expected for the veteran defensive end, and he is listed as day-to-day for now, according to The Herald Bulletin.
Aside from getting an easy 30-10 win, the Houston Texans avoided significant injuries on Sunday.

The Dolphins have a new coaching staff, led by Joe Philbin, which means that while Matt Moore's end-of-season stats won't be ignored, there certainly doesn't appear to be a strong obligation to return the starting quarterback job to Moore. He will have to earn it.
The way we hear it, in spring practices, David Garrard had the edge, which is due in part to Moore continuing a trend of not being a great practice player. Garrard, we hear, was steady in practice, and he does have experience with a West Coast system.
It is all but determined that first-round pick Ryan Tannehill will begin the season on the bench, which was confirmed by some of his reported struggles with the speed of the game during minicamp. The ideal situation for Miami, though, is to avoid rushing him onto the field.
The Moore-Garrard battle will be monitored closely in training camp, and followed by NFL fans around the country because of HBO's "Hard Knocks." Reports indicate Philbin is in no rush to name a starter, which will make preseason game performances crucial to the coaching staff's decision-making process.
As well as Garrard looks in practice, he didn't "wow" anyone last preseason in Jacksonville, losing the starting job to Blaine Gabbert. Garrard completed 50 percent of his passes in three preseason games. Some of that should be attributed to his back injury, but Garrard will need to show this preseason the signalcaller we saw in the '10 regular season, when he threw for 23 touchdowns.
Moore, who had games last season with passer ratings of 147.5, 133.3 and 122.3, was also effective in the preseason, when he entered as the clear No. 2 to Chad Henne. Moore completed 61.8 percent of his passes (which is above his career average) and tossed three touchdown passes. The Miami brass went with Henne to start the season, but Moore made things interesting. If Moore's performance on the practice field remains a rung below that of Garrard, he will need to prove himself in preseason games to regain his starting job.

Residential wood smoke is another major source of nitrogen oxides and particulate matter. Just like cigarette smoke, there is no safe level of exposure; if you can smell it you are being exposed. For more information, go to Web Link

I suppose this is one reason that global warming is beneficial. I smell wood smoke in the air around my neighborhood on every single cold day, but not so much on warmer winter days.
I really feel sorry for the kids living near those oil refineries in the East Bay. They breath the pollution every day and have no way to escape it.
on Mar 28, 2013 at 1:36 pm
Think about all those people who bought property near major streets in Palo Alto, in order to find an affordable home and get their kids into good schools. There is a lot of pollution along Alma, Oregon Expwy, Middlefield, and El Camino, and for two blocks on either side of those streets. CalTrain smog probably doesn't help.

Fully aero to fully vented, the Kask Infinity Helmet allows you to switch the helmet vents from fully closed for maximum aerodynamics, to fully open for ventilation on hot days. The vents are quickly and easily opened or closed by adjusting the mobile aerator at the top of the helmet and can be partially opened to deliver a regulated amount of ventilation. The rounded profile minimizes interruptions to the airflow, and CoolMax padding provides moisture wicking and dries quickly. Multi-layer open-cell foam reduces head-to-pad contact by 70% to further reduce hot spots. The eco leather chin strap prevents allergies and irritation of the skin, while the internal strengthening frame prevents from secondary impact and makes the Infinity helmet one of the safest helmets of its category. 260 g. MD (48-58cm) or LG (59-62cm).
Offering all of the trickle-down technology of their top-shelf Kask Vertigo at a fraction of the cost, the minty-fresh Kask Mojito Helmet is anything but just another fruity libation. Unsurpassed ventilation is achieved by means of 26 large air vents, a design feature made possible by the reinforced helmet frame - all delivered without any compromise to the safety or aerodynamic qualities of the helmet. Hygiene is also well thought out and each helmet has an easy-clean leatherette chin strap. The internal pads are made from Sanitized fabric which draws perspiration away from the head and these pads are removable and washable. The Mojito features Kask's superlative, Up-N-Down double-pivot fitting system for a supremely dialed fit not just over your head, but on the back of your neck as well. And, thanks to the reinforced in-mold construction, the Mojito is every bit as crash-proof as it is comfortable. Reflective stickers on straps and back of helmet increase your visibility to motorists. 220 g. MD (48-58cm) or LG (59-62cm).
The Kask Vertigo helmet is one of the safest, best fitting and most stylish helmets available. In particular, the Vertigo incorporates a unique hinged adjustment system that allows for both size and up/down adjustment, which together comfortably cradle the nape of the neck. The helmet size can be adjusted using either the dial or finger push system. Working together, these features give the helmet a superior fit and deliver a feeling of improved security that is quite unlike any other helmet. Unsurpassed ventilation is achieved by means of 24 large air vents, a design feature made possible by the reinforced helmet frame - all delivered without any compromise to the safety or aerodynamic qualities of the helmet. The internal pads are made from KASK's 3D Dry system which draws perspiration away from the head and these pads are removable and washable. Nylon thermo fixed straps, have soft lateral spacers where these straps are in contact with the skin, giving excellent ventilation and comfort and there is a quick release buckle. In addition to the standard reflector stickers on the back, each helmet has reflective strips on every strap. Meets the American CPSC certification for safety. 270 g. MD (48-58cm) or LG (59-62cm).

Playoff Primer 2010: Can Fort Pierce Westwood make a Class 3A run?
- 2:52 pm Wednesday, November 17th, 2010 by Jeff Greer
There are 18 playoff games across every class involving teams from our area. This week, Matt and I will break down every matchup.
Let's head north and survey Fort Pierce Westwood's first-round matchup against Southwest Ranches-Archbishop McCarthy. Westwood made waves this year with its stifling defense, strong offensive and defensive lines and the playmaking ability of QB Travares Copeland and do-everything athlete Wonderful Terry. The Panthers have a good shot at making a run, so let's break down their first challenge.

Hawks host touring German wrestling club
Updated On: Jul 17 2013 11:15:27 PM MDT
Hawk Gym was set for international competition this evening as the Bozeman wrestling squad hosted a German foreign exchange wrestling club.
The German club is touring Montana hitting Bozeman tonight, Butte tomorrow and Missoula early next week.
Hawk Coach Nate Laslovich said a Montana wrestling group went to Germany last year so it was Montana's turn to return the favor this year.
The two groups partook in two wrestling styles, grecko and freestyle, not folkstyle, the type of wrestling that the Hawks are used to competing in.
Germany picked up the 41-31 win this evening but the Bozeman seniors still had a smile on their face say it was a fun experience and a great chance to learn from some international kids.
"It's fun," said senior Keavon Buckley. "Not only because we get to wrestle them but we get to learn about their culture and host them. It's a good experience for both teams I think."
"There styles are totally different, it's interesting to mix up styles," said fellow senior Vito Degidio. "It's good to get that experience and they're just awesome kids, they're fun."
I asked both seniors if they tried to pick up any tricks or techniques on the mat, Keavon laughed and said, "I'll try anything that's fun. I saw a couple things I liked and said, 'hey, maybe I'll try it out there. I used to wrestle freestyle so I love it. It just take a whole different mindset. It's a lot of fun."
"I try and pick up as much as I can in all honesty," said Vito. "It's good practice. We don't wrestle much freestyle here at Bozeman High. We're predominately a folkstyle team but it's good to get that experience, especially over the summer."

I began taking pictures for NCADA in the early 1990s, when my daughter was a dancer there. As my skills (and digital technology) have improved, I started doing dance photos professionally. I look forward to each performance as if my daughters were still dancing.

Narrow your search
The T-Mobile 768 is a good option for those with modest needs and budgets, but don't expect anything more than making calls.
Though it doesn't have LTE and takes unimpressive photos, the LG Optimus L90 remains a worthy midrange contender that you should look at if you're on a budget.
Available today on T-Mobile and on May 19 for MetroPCS, the entry-level Concord II sports a 4-inch screen, a 5-megapixel camera, and Android 4.3.
Pricing not available
The Samsung LTE Mobile HotSpot Pro's superfast 4G LTE speed and exceptionally long battery life make it a great buy on its own, but its juice pack feature sweetens the deal that much more.
Even if you're on a tight budget, you should skip Alcatel's One Touch Fierce in favor of a better prepaid phone.
Get the T-Mobile Prism 2 if you want an inexpensive and dependable 3G phone, but skip it if you prioritize speedy performance.
The Alcatel-made T-Mobile Sparq is a QWERTY feature phone for those looking for the utmost in simple keybaord communication.
The T-Mobile Concord's midrange specs won't turn any heads, but it's a reliable, stylish, and inexpensive handset that doesn't require a contract.
An example of excellent call quality at a dirt-cheap price, the Samsung t159 excels at the basics, but stumbles on style.
If you can live with its dated software and heft, the T-Mobile MyTouch Q is an alluring keyboard slider deal.

text: Leslie Michele Derrough of GlideMagazine.com recently conducted an interview with GUNS N' ROSES/SIXX: A.M. guitarist DJ Ashba. A couple of excerpts from the chat follow below.GlideMagazine.com: When did you realize that you wanted to become a business person behind what you wanted to do? Ashba: A couple different things. When people ask me who were my influences. It was never guitar players, it was never, so to speak, musicians. I've always looked up to certain people, but my true influences in life were people like Walt Disney, people like Steve Jobs, people that really came and changed the world in a much bigger way than just a dream. They've changed the world in a massive way. And I always felt like I was put here to do something great, like really beyond music. I still, to this day, don't think I've found the real reason why I'm here, you know. People are like, "But you're in the biggest band in the world," and I go, "Yeah, but there is something inside that I keep searching for," and I think before I go there is going to be something, I'm pretty confident, that is going to be kind of the reason I'm known for. And I don't think it's going to be music-related, which is weird. GlideMagazine.com: You've always been very artistic to begin with, and then you took that and made it into something. Ashba: Ever since I was young, I would draw on everything there was: paper plates, blah, blah, blah. I started working for a newspaper when I was really young, like in seventh grade, I believe, seventh or eighth grade, and I noticed they didn't have a cartoon in the newspaper. And I worked down in the crappy, folding the papers that come out of the press, and our boss was scary, like this old, scary guy that everyone was afraid of. So I remember going up to the third floor of this small, little, tiny town rickety building and knocking on the big boss's door and walking in and he looked at me like, what balls do you have? [laughs] And I tried to tell him, "I know how to make your paper better." And he was just like, "What?" And I'm in like seventh or eighth grade and I go, "Your paper doesn't have a cartoon and everybody loves cartoons. I would love to do a cartoon for the newspaper." And he kicked me out of his office but about a week later he came down and everybody got all tense and he goes, "I need to see you in my office," and I was like, crap, he's going to fire me. And it went from that to him going, "I thought about what you were saying, bring me in some ideas." I actually stayed up all night drawing and drawing. And I went from that to he gave me my own office. So I think that kind of showed me something from an early age. It's like, wow, I believed in something I really strongly believed in and I, as hard as it was, approached it and it worked out. And I think that's kind of what was the start of everything else. GlideMagazine.com: What was your biggest challenge into the business world? Ashba: I think, in a big way, it's the clothing. The clothing I've been trying to do for fifteen years and I could never get it right, 'cause clothing is a really tough thing to get into. You've got to really know what you're doing and I've made a lot of mistakes and I learned from them, but I never gave up. And I think that's half of it, you know. I've always said it's never hard to do anything you wanted to achieve your dreams; it's hard not to give up. So if you don't give up on your dream, you will succeed and you will get to your ultimate goal. I come from a place where it's, like, you can have anything in life you wanted as long as you wanted it bad enough and you're willing to work as hard as it takes to get it. And I'm a hard worker and when I get focused on a goal, no one can detour me from it. And I love it. It's fun. Read the entire interview from GlideMagazine.com.

One-time donations are always appreciated and are a valuable contribution to the essential support of the mandala.
Recurring monthly donations give us a much better basis for planning our finances.
As the Sakyong said in his message to the mandala when the world's financial crisis broke in 2008: "This is not a time to close down or hold on, but to offer from the natural well-spring of generosity."
