I was told Tropicana Field … home of the Rays was an ugly ballpark … it's beyond ugly … it looks like a Walmart from the outside ... if Walmart planted a few palm trees … and on the inside it looks like a minor league park.
A minor league domed stadium that is depressingly dark ... with cheap advertising signs everywhere.
Oh well - when you wait as long as the Rangers have … and you're only playing in your 4th playoff series … they'd probably play in a gravel pit in Mesquite if they could. Game 1 tomorrow … and the Rangers trying to get rid of that tag as the only major league team that has never won a playoff series … think about that - teams like Seattle and Toronto and Montreal and Colorado and Arizona … and oh yeah … Tampa Bay have won.
All teams that started playing after the Rangers …. And the Rangers the only team that hasn't won a playoff series. That is 39 years of ugly baseball ... not as ugly as Tropicana Field … but still ugly … and about to change. If not this year … soon

The Life Center's vision is to apply Jesus' words in John 6:12, "Gather up now the fragments (the broken pieces that are left over), so that nothing may be lost and wasted". TLC strives to be a gathering place for people who are broken and fragmented to receive the hope and healing of Jesus Christ. As we cross-reference this vision statement with the parable of "the good Samaritan" (Luke 10:33) we will quickly find the passionate heart of God toward hurting people – this is our mandate!
TLC's vision is put into action through our mission statement : PRAY, GIVE, GO. All of our ministries are filtered through the mission as a means to facilitate at least one of the three actions of prayer (PRAY), service (GIVE), and discipleship (GO). We take it a step further and expound on why we use the mission of PRAY, GIVE, GO: We PRAY 2 STAY, GIVE 2 LIVE, GO 2 GROW.

STERLING, IL -- (Marketwired) -- 04/25/13 -- Americans are hurting, and this time it's not because of the economy. A new online study conducted by Harris Interactive and commissioned by Wahl Clipper Corporation reveals the vast majority of American adults experience muscle and joint pain -- and in more than one place. The study uncovers how people deal with their pain and how far they would go to eliminate it. The highlights can be found in a new infographic: The Truth Hurts.
"Pain is a growing issue that affects people of all ages," said Jenny McLaughlin, product manager for Wahl, the company that invented the electric massager. "As a leading manufacturer of pain management tools, we're committed to helping people better manage their everyday aches and pains. It starts with understanding the issue."
In February 2013, a representative sample of more than 2,000 men and women nationwide were asked to share their pain -- specifically, where it hurts, how often, how much and how they deal with it. The results suggest that if pain were a disease, it would be an epidemic.
Where it hurts
More than eight in 10 Americans experience muscle or joint pain over the past 12 months, and 75 percent experience it in three or more places. While numbers show the most common pain points are lower back, shoulders/neck and joints, to call them common is an understatement.
Not only do nearly seven in 10 people report pain in these areas, but of those who do, about half experience it at least once a month. The highest percentage faces this pain on a daily basis.
The breakdown of where people experience pain:
- 78 percent experience back pain
- 74 percent experience neck/shoulder pain
- 68 percent experience joint pain
- 65 percent experience leg pain
- 60 percent experience foot pain
- 57 percent experience arm pain
Who's in pain
Geographically speaking, pain is consistent. The Midwest and South have the highest incidence of pain at 87 percent, but the Northeast and West are not far behind, 84 percent and 83 percent, respectively. In the battle of the sexes, pain is an equal opportunity employer. Women experience it more, but by a slim margin, 87 percent to 84 percent.
Marriage might be bliss, but it can come at a painful price. Those who tie the knot experience about 10 percent more pain than single/never married people.
Not surprisingly, pain favors those who are older, however, the margin is not as big as might be expected -- nine in 10 people 55-plus experience pain, but so do nearly eight in 10 people 18-34. Pain levels remain steady between the ages of 18 and 44, but once a person turns 45, their likelihood to report having pain increases about 10 percent. By age 55, the likelihood of not having pain is about one in 10.
How people deal with their pain
When it comes to treating pain, the majority, 64 percent, do more than one thing. While 70 percent of pain sufferers turn to medication, either over-the-counter or prescription, 40 percent also take matters into their own hands by way of hot/cold treatments or taking it easy. One in five in pain also use massage therapy and 17 percent seek medical attention.
Men and women deal with their pain very differently. While most do something to treat their pain, men are almost twice as likely as women to do nothing, 13 percent versus seven percent.
What people would to do to eliminate their pain
If given the opportunity to trade their pain for something unpleasant, more than half of Americans say bring it on. Based on options provided, 84 million Americans would rather pierce their tongue, have a root canal or give a speech in their underwear.
New technology and resources to manage pain
As a pain management leader, Wahl offers tools and resources to help those experiencing recurring muscle and joint pain get the relief they need. The company's line of pain management massagers now includes new temperature therapy products -- the Hot-Cold Massager and Hot-Cold Massaging Gel Pack -- that combine two common pain treatment methods for a more comprehensive approach to pain management. In addition, Wahl has introduced, wahlmassagers.com, which provides massage treatment guidance based on specific pain points or conditions.

It took less than two weeks, 13 days for a greedy attorney to try to cash in on the Sandy Hook School massacre.
The lawyer sought permission to sue the state of Connecticut for $100-million on behalf of an uninjured 6-year-old known in the filing only as Jill Doe. He says his client heard the events, the gunfire, the screaming over the intercom and has suffered emotional and psychological trauma as a result.
I don't doubt that, I'm sure all of the children were horribly traumatized by what they heard and saw, but this guy should be ashamed of himself.
He wasn't, apparently, until others started calling him a bottom-dwelling, blood-sucking, slime ball, among other things, on the internet. And now he has decided to withdraw his lawsuit. I'm sure just until the criticism cools.
I know most lawyers must be cringing at the insensitivity of this guy.
This school had taken extra security measures and heaven knows the teachers weren't neglectful, they were heroic the way they protected the children.
I hope the Connecticut Bar takes a look at this guy and finds some way to punish him for trying to cash in on the misery that happened so recently at Sandy Hook Elementary.

My now husband knew that I knew that my proposal was coming...and he didn't know how to surprise me. So he had a good friend of ours call and ask me to go out to dinner with her and her boyfriend. We met up at a nice restaurant and although everyone was acting really weird, I had no idea what was going on. The other couple suddenly had a family issue come up and left. We then proceeded to have dinner and it wasn't until the waiter dropped off a dessert that I realized what might be happening but my belief was not confirmed until my husband dropped to the floor and pulled out a ring :)

Moss Point's Devin Booker is the lone Mississippi nominee for the McDonald's All-American basketball game, which takes place April 2 in Chicago.
Booker, a Kentucky signee, is averaging 31.3 points per game for the Tigers this season. The 6-foot-5 shooting guard played in the Under Armour Elite 24 game in New York last summer.
Booker has 2,008 points for his career, surpassing the 2,000-point mark during the Tigers' 69-57 victory at St. Stanislaus last Friday. He is 244 points from besting the Moss Point school record of 2,251 set by David Booker (no relation), the 2006 Mississippi Gatorade Player of the Year.
Moss Point has had one McDonald's All-American since the game's origin in 1977, point guard Litterial Green in 1988. Green, who went on to become an All-American at Georgia and played five seasons in the NBA, ranks second behind David Booker in scoring for the Tigers with 2,220 points.
McDonald's announced close to 1,000 nominees for the All-American games on Tuesday. The final teams of 24 boys and 24 girls will be announced live on ESPNU at 5 p.m. Jan. 29.
The last McDonald's All-American from Mississippi was Kemper
County's Devonta Pollard, who was selected for the game in 2012 but did not play
due to injury. Past McDonald's All-Americans from Mississippi include
Gulfport's Chris Jackson (1988), Murrah's Othella Harrington (1992), Picayune's Jonathan Bender (1999), Murrah's Mo Williams (2001) and Lanier's Monta Ellis (2005).

WAR is a cumulative stat, and we're not far into the season... so SSS issues abound, but I thought I'd take a quick look at fWAR now that we're about a month into the season, and see if there's anything to be excited/worried about.
fWAR, to date:
KJ = 0.9 fWAR (93 plate appearances)
Lawrie = 0.7 (95)
Escobar = 0.3 (106)
Mathis (!) = 0.3 (18)
Rasmus = 0.3 (86)
Bautista = 0.1 (99)
Arencibia = 0.0 (67)
Lind = 0.0 (81)
Thames = -0.1 (68)
Francisco = -0.1 (14)
Davis = -0.1 (31)
Vizquel = -0.2 (12)
Encarnacion is hurt by his position as DH, and also by his poor defense in the field, but I think there's no doubt we can be ecstatic about Encarnacion and KJ so far, and happy that Encarnacion is taking some PA's away from Lind, who is continuing his 2+ years of basically replacement-level play (Lind's defense has been basically neutral, so far, according to Fangraphs). I was surprised to see Thames at -0.1 fWAR, given his rather impressive slash line of .311/.368/.459, but his defense has been absolutely horrendous, and this is where he loses most of his value. It's hard to imagine Snider would or could do worse. Thames' peripherals also aren't great, as he's sporting an unsustainable .354 BABIP and will likely regress. Escobar, on the other hand, has only a .241 BABIP, so the hits should start falling in. Even with his offensive woes, though, he's clearly still valuable at 0.3 fWAR after only one month of play. Lawrie, despite his power woes, is playing incredibly well, and Fangraphs loves his defense. Indeed, amongst qualifying 3B Lawrie's defense ranks third in the majors, behind Moustakas and Freese. Lawrie has also been the Jays' best baserunner, despite the CS at home the other day. Mathis' production is obviously unsustainable, but wow, has he ever been awesome in an extremely small sample size?!?
Anyway, sample size is too small to be certain of anything, yet, but it's fun to take a look. What do you think?

After more than 30 years of working in and managing television stations, WDRB president and general manager, Bill Lamb, has learned first-hand that running a business is a complex endeavor. But he has also learned that at every successful organization's core are some simple, basic principles. And his new book focuses on his philosophy that "Money Follows Excellence."
In the book, Lamb suggests that managers, if they hope to be successful, must ground their organization's core principles in a solid foundation and ensure - always - that excellence comes first. He advises managers to forget about being number one (a short-term goal) and to focus instead on being the best, which will lead to long-term sustainability.He also stresses the importance of developing the right culture in an organization.
"Money Follows Excellence" is available at Carmichael's Books and he will be signing copies all day at the Kentucky Book Fair in Frankfort on Saturday, November 10, 2012.
The book is also available online through Butler Books, click here.

Tonight at 10/9c, CBS' Person of Interest kicks off a foreboding three-episode arc during which, the new promo warns us, "a hero will fall." And TVLine has your first look at at a scene that hangs a dark cloud over one of the honorary team members.
In this week's episode "Endgame," Finch receives 38 (!) numbers, all connected to an unknown player who is inciting an all-out war between HR and the Russian mob. Meanwhile, a window into Carter's past is seen through flashbacks with her son's father (played by Breakout Kings' Laz Alonso).
In this exclusive clip, Reese (Jim Caviezel) sneaks past the dirty cops staked outside Carter's (Taraji P. Henson) place to check in on her battle with HR — only to hear her ask that he and the team back off and leave her to fly solo in this effort. Will John acquiesce? And if so, has Carter made a fatal decision?
This kind of makes me feel better because of the "fatal decision" teasing. I was worried because the promo was all about Fusco possibly dying (which will hopefully be a misdirect). If they're also leaking stuff that's teasing Carter's death maybe that won't happen either. Right? RIGHT?
Finch had this look on his face that was half "awwwww" and half "why don't I get a hug?".
Let us not forget Alicia Corwin. A woman who is deeply involved in the conspiracy, who was bossing around Reese and Stanton and to whom Snow deferred. A woman who knows all about the Machine and was in a position of power when it came to Ingram's dealings with the government and the CIA. And a woman who will seemingly go after Finch. All on her own.
I agree with you that Reese's behaviour towards Jessica is more problematic and hero-y and Nolan-ish, though it is consistent with his personality and his gender assumptions. But while he did give her up "for her own good", so she could have a better life, he also gave her up to devote himself to his country. It wasn't "I'm not worthy to be with this special snowflake", it was "my country needs me more than Jessica does, and I choose to serve it. She can be happy with someone else.". He didn't just leave her, he left the country and became a spy and gave up his whole life. That's a pretty solid reason to end a relationship, I think. Plus, we saw that Jessica did make her own decision to wait for him for a while, despite what he said, and then she also made the decision to move on with her life (tragically as that ended). Ultimately, did Reese disregard Jessica's right to choose or did he just dump her? I think it's the latter.
I find Finch's behaviour less problematic and I agree with zi6u83's points. Finch said the Machine is like a virus. It has ruined countless lives, it has taken Ingram's life. We saw his reaction when he first saw modern day Alicia. The Machine is deadly, and the less people who can be linked to it, the better. I find that understandable. The whole point is that no one can know. Finch wouldn't even tell Reese exactly how he gets the numbers and Reese is actually aware of the Machine's existence. I think that's a safety precaution both for the individuals and the Machine itself. Grace is a woman, but that's an afterthought. I feel that she just represents the normal life Finch had to give up. And that is what I actually find problematic, a woman who isn't a character but a symbol/stereotype. But even that is somewhat understandable when you consider she is a minor character with 2 minutes of screentime. But it does remain problematic and a huge cliche.
You're right, Alicia is awesome. I really liked her in this ep. I liked Stanton a little less after 20 but I'm hoping she'll really pull out the stops soon. There are some great women in this show, just not the two that matter most to the main characters apparently :/
But John definitely left Jessica "for her own good." He could have left to do his tour of duty and actually told her that was what he was doing. At that point he was in Special Forces, not the CIA. They could have had a long distance relationship like any number of servicemen. But like Jessica herself said, he left because he didn't want her to be hurt if he died. But mostly because he's a coward.
As for Finch, if he was THAT worried about what could happen to Grace if she found out about The Machine, why was he not more concerned when Will was asking questions about it?
Ultimately the problem isn't the individual cases of Reese and Finch, but the fact that we got slammed with both of them back to back at the end of the season. The problem is Sameness. Why do they both have to have had the love of their life, only to reject it with no input from the women themselves? It wasn't necessary and it cheapens all the development Finch has had thus far.
I see your point about Reese, and there's definitely an element of "I wanted to protect you" in his actions. But I just feel that element is secondary, and that the primary motivation for Reese was 9/11 and the fact he decided to just devote himself to his country 100%, he made a conscious choice. I mean, he obviously wanted Jessica to be happy and not to get hurt, because he loved her, but I feel that she was collateral damage to his higher purpose, to his duty. He didn't want a long distance relationship, he didn't want to maintain any contact with his old life, he just took off as a reaction to 9/11, because he saw himself as a tool, a weapon for the army/the CIA/etc to use (which is why he became a pawn later on). For me, there wasn't a reason for him to offer Jessica a choice; even though he loved her, he flat-out decided to leave her behind. Which happens sometimes, and which is his right. You don't ask people if they want to be dumped, that defeats the purpose. And yeah, asking her to wait for him would indeed require courage he didn't have, which paints him in a negative light, and he knows that. But I do think you're right and the show is more overtly pushing the more "romantic" yet patronising angle of "I want what's best for you and I know what that is and you don't". Which really is problematic. I just feel Reese's overall personality ("I am a killing machine") justifies his choice, if not his attitude.
And when it comes to Will I actually think that Will is already "infected", he's Ingram's son so he is connected to the Machine in a very real way, even if he doesn't know it. The higher-ups who know about the Machine are obviously aware of Will's existence and expect questions, that's why they've redacted most of Ingram's files and made sure almost everything Will looks into will lead to a dead end (although Corwin's name does seem to pop up a lot and that's either a contrivance or it's because she is no longer with the government). The questions Will asks are less about "omg is there a conspiracy?" and more about "oh hey so what did my father do with his life?". The latter is far safer and easier to cover up, so I think Will is not a direct threat to the Machine's secrecy, he's a possible threat which is being closely monitored.
But I do completely agree that it's contrived that both Reese and Finch are such martyrs who gave up on love for their duty and isn't that sweet etc etc. Some variety would have been nice. Finch said something (maybe a lie) about having brothers, he could have left behind a family member instead of a girlfriend, for instance, and it'd be just as painful. And I also agree that it takes away some of Finch's mystery and previous characterisation, although it also gives him a new layer and it tells us (not to mention Reese) that he did enjoy life at some point at least. But I know what you mean and I get it. I watched Lost, and I experienced the biggest disappointment EVER when Ben, the mastermind, the puppet master, was revealed to have a practically high school crush (!!!) on Juliet and to have murdered Goodwin (Brett Cullen!) because he was jealous. Like, seriously? So I feel you, reveals like these do tend to humanise/demystify characters and that's disappointing.

Nigel Ashman may soon become the most multi-lingual manager in the Kershaw League, Premier Division after the latest additions to Cambridge City reserves' foreign legion.
The club already have a small Spanish contingent playing for them, with Armando Mengual now adding to that and even moving into the same house vacated by Andres Gutirezza after he returned to his homeland.
But Polish duo Mateusz Kuzimski and Damian Trutkowski have brought an even more international flavour to the side, and made an instant impact on their debut in the 2-1 defeat at Soham reserves.
City first-team boss Gary Roberts was keen to see the two in action following a trial period, and striker Kuzimski grabbed a goal which was set up by midfielder Trutkowski.
"I've already had to learn Spanish so I can do my pre-match team talk, now I might have to learn a third language as well," joked Ashman.
"The Polish lads both speak excellent English though, so I should be all right.
"They've both been over here for a while and they've been training with the first team. They've played at a reasonable level in Poland and they wanted to give it a go. "Armando has played at the same level as David Prada and Ramon Fennoll in Spain. He came on as a substitute and all three played well in difficult conditions."
But while Ashman was pleased with how his debutants performed, he was left to rue decisions from the officials which went against his team - particularly Matthew Simpson's late penalty which secured the points for Soham.
Kuzimski gave the visitors the lead before ex-City man George Darling levelled for the Greens 10 minutes before the interval.
Then came the first major incident which irked Ashman, with John Fear having a goal from a 30-yard strike disallowed due to the referee blowing up for a free kick to Soham moments before the shot was taken.
The rest of the match proved to be an even tussle until late on when Martin Grey launched a long throw into the City box and veteran Stephen Tuck was deemed to have been tripped after a defender hung a leg out.
City were furious, but Simpson kept his cool to slot home the resulting spot kick and extend Soham's winning run to four games.
"We had decisions like that go against us earlier in the season, but now we've started to have them go for us," said Soham boss Andrew Lee.
"It was a close game and a draw probably would have been a fair result, but we've managed to nick it."
The result was especially pleasing for Lee as it was his side's first game for just under a month, although weekends without a game due to the weather have been the least of the problems faced by Sawston United.
The heavy rainfall meant they had even been unable to find anywhere to train ahead of the trip to Brampton, but that had little effect on the Sawston side as they ran out 5-2 victors.
Top scorer Jordan Nicholson added to his tally for the season with a hat-trick, while Lee James and Max Bungay were also on target for the visitors.
Two late goals from Nick Garner and Sam Miles got Brampton on the scoreboard, but there was no stopping Sawston from claiming victory.
"It's always a tough game away to Brampton and given that we hadn't been able to train in the week it was interesting to see how we would respond," said United manager Brett Matthews.
"This was the main thing - it's not so much about if we win but about making sure we put in strong performances. We've got to keep that going until the end of the season."

SPOKANE, Wash. - Three Spokane Valley Wal-Mart employees were doused with pepper spray early Monday when a pair of thieves attempted to steal a flat-screen television and DVD player about 40 minutes after midnight.
The employees told officers that they individually noticed a man and woman pushing a shopping cart toward the eastern-most front doors. The cart held a 32-inch Emerson TV and a Sony Blu-Ray disk player.
When the cart reached the doors, the unpaid merchandise alarm sounded. The three employees attempted to stop the thieves, a male and female, but the man turned and began spraying pepper spray into the entryway from a large canister.
At the same time, an employee in the parking lot noticed a tan Ford Escort or Contour back up to the front doors. It had a black front fender and "fake" chrome hubcaps, and was driven by a white male. The male and female theft suspects jumped into the car and it took off westbound on Broadway at a high rate of speed.
Although none of the employees was seriously injured in the incident, one was hit directly in the face with the spray. Afterward, employees had to bag the television and DVD player in plastic bags to suppress the pepper spray fumes on them.
The male theft suspect was described as a white male, 19 to 22 years old and about 5'07" to 5'09" tall. He wore a light blue baseball cap and multi-colored ski jacket. The female was described as having dirty blond hair and being 5'04" tall and 120 pounds.
A folding knife was found on the floor where the employees first confronted the two thieves. It was seized for fingerprint examination.
Anyone with information about this robbery is asked to call the Spokane Valley Police at 242-TIPS.

My plans to turn this house into a home have already started. Step one was putting into motion a way for me to feel comfortable opening the curtains in my living room that look out into my backyard. Why? Because with the apartments behind us, it now feels like the backyard and the back of our house are exposed to everyone in that community watching us all the time.
Village Communities/Ardent Communities (if I haven't made this clear, avoid renting or buying from this company at all costs) FINALLY put up the fence for their apartments, but they didn't even connect it to the other part of their fence. So anyone could walk 100 feet beyond our house and come around to the other side of the fence and into our neighborhood's backyards. At the moment that six foot fence also has a packed-down dirt mound three feet high on the other side – you could practically hop over it from their side. Way to do the minimum and still be jerks, VC.
Several people had suggested getting some trees to help block the view, so I didn't sit on my sofa and stare at a panoramic view of bland, depressing apartments every day. Thankfully, Fall is a great time to buy trees from the local nurseries at a nice discount.
My mom (the one with the green thumb) went with me to pick out the right trees, and we brought home five little emerald green arbor vitae evergreens at half off. At the moment they're about three feet tall. They grow to be about ten feet tall and about four feet wide, and have the advantage of being trees that require very little maintenance. Plant them in a good spot, water them, and let them grow – perfect for someone who can't even keep a garden growing.
All of our electric and gas lines are buried just outside of our fence, so we had to plant them inside the fence. Taking visual perspective into consideration, this isn't a bad thing since they'll block the view even sooner than if they were planted further away.
Of course, Mira took one look at them and exclaimed that they were "the most perfect little Christmas trees!" she had ever seen. They're still getting used to their new home, but I have a feeling that next year these new trees will be decorated by a certain little girl who can't stand to see a blank canvas.
Naturally, it'll take years for them to reach their maximum height. That part isn't so fun. Maybe I can find some plant steroids to get them growing faster? I also need to plant a few more to give us full coverage – I didn't realize just how long my backyard is.
Ah well, if they don't block the view for me, at least they'll block the view for the next people to own this house. And just knowing they're out there makes me feel happy.
Screening trees? Check. (Well, in a few years. They're just cute evergreens at the moment.) My curtain rod arrived for the living room this week, so that may be my next project. No more spring rod curtains!

U.S. Congress
Pro-Life Republicans
Last night all but one, who voted present, of the House Republicans voted in favor of the Stupak Amendment in spite of knowing that its passage made likely the final passage of ObamaCare. Here is a statement of the House Republican Leadership issued last night before either the Stupak amendment or ObamaCare was passed:
House Republican Leader John Boehner (R-OH), House Republican Whip Eric Cantor (R-VA) and House Republican Conference Chairman Mike Pence (R-IN) issued the following statement in support of an amendment offered by Representatives Bart Stupak (D-MI) and Joseph Pitts (R-PA) that would prohibit federal funding of abortions under the House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's (D-CA) health care plan: "We believe in the sanctity of life, and the Stupak-Pitts Amendment addresses a moral issue of the utmost concern. It will limit abortion in the United States. Because of this, while we strongly and deeply oppose the underlying bill, we decided to stand with Life and support Stupak-Pitts.
The Good News
I know that some of my fellow contributors and some of our regular readers are dismayed with the passage of "Obamacare", or if you like, health care reform, by the House of Representatives. Personally, I think the bill could have been better in a number of ways, but I don't want to get into all of that now.
The good news is, whether one supports or opposes the House bill, the Stupak amendment preventing federal funding of abortion passed. Already some are predicting its demise as as the bill moves to the Senate, but again, this is besides the point I want to make.
The main reason this is good news in my view is that it demonstrates the seriousness with which the pro-life movement must be taken by the political leaders of our nation. Pro-abortion activists are outraged with the passage of the Stupak amendment, citing it as a "step backwards." I wholeheartedly agree: it is a major step backwards for the Culture of Death, and a significant advance for the Culture of Life.
Congress Goes Batty
From the only reliable source of news on the net, the Onion. I wonder how the bat would vote on ObamaCare?
A few years ago my wife and I awoke in the middle of the night to a bat flying around our bedroom, the only time we have seen a bat in our house. We turned on the overhead light and the bat began to circle it at top speed. We opened the bedroom window, but the bat seemed to be having too much fun circling our light. I grabbed a towel from our bathroom, and, hearkening back to the "towel wars" I participated in during high school a bit over three decades ago, I snapped the towel at the bat. The creature fell stunned on our bed. I threw the towel over the bat, and unceremoniously tossed towel and bat out the window. The next morning I retrieved the towel. No bat was lying on the ground, so I assume it went on its bat way unscathed.
That was my one and only run in with a bat. On the whole I would rather deal with them than the results of most Congressional legislation.
Blueshirts, Pelosi, and Mobs, Oh My!
It's been an interesting week in the world of American politics. With the arrogance of congressional Democrats and the White House attempts at discrediting a grassroots movement, the passions will certainly continue to climb after the weekend is over.
Here are some highlights from these past few days:
1. At a town hall last week in Dallas, an elderly "mob" with "manufactured" outrage questioned AARP's support for nationalized health care, asking: "Do you work for us or do we work for you?"
There were no swastika-wearing grannies at Tuesday's meeting, as House Speaker Nancy Pelosi might claim. Nor were they "taking their cues from talk show hosts, Internet rumor-mongers . . . and insurance rackets," as Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid has said.
But they were mad as hell at the perception that AARP was selling them out in the name of government-run medical insurance. That perception was not helped when the AARP town hall on the subject was shut down by the seniors outfit once the members dared to ask questions. The AARP representatives did not want to hear from the members at all. Just send in your dues, granny, and be quiet.
To read the rest of this IDB Editorial click here.
2. You've heard a lot about this crazy, scary, vicious mob on some shadowy GOP payroll. By the way the DNC, Rachel Maddow, and President Obama talk, you'd think it was a motley crue of Hell's Angels.
Let me introduce you to the mob:
Congress Feeling the Heat
Hattip to Instapundit. Democrat Congress beings are reporting here that they are encountering angry constituents at their townhall meetings. Now why would their constituents be so angry?
Oh yeah.
There is a political storm brewing in this country of immense proportions. If some members of Congress aren't aware of it yet, they will be after they return from the August recess.
Obamacare: If Congress Passes It, Let Them Live Under It
Hattip to Robert Stacy McCain at The Other McCain. Rep. John Fleming (R. LA.) is the sponsor of House Resolution 615 which states that in the event National Health Care passes, all members of Congress who vote for it are urged to receive their health insurance under it. This sounds like a very good idea to me. If it is good enough for voters it should be good enough for CongressCritters. Of course urging isn't enough. They should be required to be subject to Obamacare if it passes. Here is the text of the resolution.
Government Funded Health Care Open Thread
In light of Zach's stellar posting which generated over 240 comments ranging from anarchism to Oscar Romero and which inspired a posting by Michael Denton. These comments, although informative to a certain extent, may have detracted from the original intent of the posting. Henceforth in regards to said activities being done on Zach's posting concerning Representative Chris Smith, I am starting a new tradition here at American Catholic, the open thread.
So feel free to comment to your hearts delight that isn't related to any other postings on this website.
The comments policy is still in place so don't forget to treat each other as brothers and sisters in Christ.
Kudos to Rep. Chris Smith
A New Jersey representative was on the floor of the House last night clearly and passionately articulating the connection between state-funded health care and state-funded abortions. Sure, the House was empty and he was talking to two other Representatives. His arguments were no less compelling.
The number of abortions will dramatically increase under the coming state-controlled health care plan. This is something we need to amplify for public consideration; especially to those of a religious mindset who may be inclined to favor state-enforced health care.
I hope to find a video soon; let me know if you do!
A Plan For Palin, A New Contract With America?
[Updates at the bottom of his post]
Governor Sarah Palin recently announced her resignation as governor of the great state of Alaska and there has been a flurry of analysis of her motives, her character, and her future plans. Some of this analysis were sincere, others were borderline antagonistic.
This is all occurring in the midst of an Obama presidency steering both Democratic controlled chambers of Congress that have substantially increased spending and enlarged the government to the detriment of our freedoms. Couple this with the lack of a clear Republican plan to challenge all of this, the American people are in need of a leader to guide us out of this wilderness.
I believe Governor Palin can and should play this important role. She stated in her final address as governor of Alaska that she wants to do what's best for her state. If she is a person of principle and a patriot then it is logical to presume that she wants what's best for America. And what's best for America right now is to have a strong and vigorous counterweight to the liberal agenda of President Obama and his enablers in the Congress.
The plan that Governor Palin should pursue is to proactively lead Americans to take back Congress as part of the pact with America. She should do what then House Leader Newt Gingrich did in 1994 with the Republican Party's Contract with America that gave the Republicans control of the House of Representatives for the first time in 40 years.
'The Federalist Papers' and Contemporary Political Challenges
American Political Theory and Constitutional Law Series, Pt. I
The American people have a history of distrust and suspicion of centralized authority. The original framework for the primitive independent-America outlined in the Articles of Confederation was not weak by accident. Even despite the clear insufficiency of the-then government under the Articles, the framers of the Constitution still found their vision of government to be a hard sell. It is fair to say their success was in finding an effective mix between the Athenian assembly and Roman Senate combined with 'checks and balance' with two other branches of government—a republic instead of a direct democracy.
In many ways, this debate has lived on. It is remarkable, particularly in recent decades, how many constitutional amendments have been given real and serious consideration by the U.S. Congress, from balanced budgets, to flag desecration, to super-majorities for taxes, to line-item veto just begin the list in attempts to reshape the constitutional order.
For some time I have had mixed and often conflicting beliefs about this whole debate. The usual "left" versus "right" spin is, as usual, tiring. Though, I have re-engaged the matter due largely to a new found interest in the project development of Catholic legal theory. Such an undertaking on the part of Catholic law professors and legal professionals have been enormously helpful in the process of asking serious questions and finding an authentic Catholic answer to crucial questions about American government, constitutional law, and jurisprudence. This couldn't be more true than with my quarrels with the "living Constitution theory" as well as "originalism." Though it is probably still the case, to some degree, that I am troubled about answers to these questions. I have become more convinced by those who make the case (in regard to one matter) that America needs a much needed reminder: constitutional amendments should be rare and limited to issues of historic significance. The U.S. Constitution must be preserved from short-term and sudden passions. The starting point, I think, is to reiterate, as the Founding Fathers did, the merits of representation, deliberation, and conciliation.
American voters in great number say they favor change, but there is no consensus or clarity about neither the amount nor direction such change should take. Not so surprisingly, contemporary political debates do very little to educate the public about essential constitutional issues. Serious discussion is not only past due, but is vital. What is a greater threat to constitutional government than a lack of substantive public debate and public awareness? An uninformed, ignorant public is perilous to the common good and constitutional order.
Democrat Economy
The Bankrupt the Nation Act of 2009, often erroneously called the "Stimulus" bill, fittingly passed on Friday the 13th.
Bravo to the 177 Republicans, every member of the GOP in the house, and the 11 brave Democrats, who voted against the 819 billion Bankrupt the Nation Act of 2009. This pork laden monstrosity may well serve as an example for future historians, along with the Bailout Swindle of 2008, as the culminating acts of fiscal madness that led to the decline, at least temporarily, of the US as an economic power. This also sends a message to the Public: " You wanted change? This is the change you are getting." This policy is now owned lock and stock by the Democrat party. If it works, something I think unlikely in the extreme, they will be in power for a generation. If it does not, 2010 and 2012 might be very good years for the Grand Old Party. In either case, the public is going to be given a clear choice next time around.

Intern Bios 2009
At the beginning of my college career, I planned to study business at San Diego State University but switched my major to philosophy after a course on ethics. Ironically, when I switched majors I was unfamiliar with the field of bioethics and was planning to go to medical school after graduation. I merely had a slight interest in philosophy and saw the major as somewhat of a hobby alongside a pre-medical curriculum. It was not until I stumbled into a position at a local IRB (that I did not take) and realized how well the fields of biology and philosophy complemented one another that I decided to pursue a career in bioethics as well. What draws me to the field is its inherent interdisciplinary nature and the ability to have insightful conversations with people from diverse backgrounds about relevant topics. Immersing myself in the field of bioethics has already led me on an amazing journey and I can only imagine what lies in store for me in the future.
I once believed that science could act as the rationale for any medical decision. However, in time and experience, I realized that there is more to medicine than just science. There is a humane and emotional element that dictates both how we practice and value health care. I first pursued bioethics while working at The Access Project in Boston, MA. While at The Access Project, I focused on barriers to care and the management of hospital and patient debt. While working there I was introduced to the struggles of the un/underinsured, and to how financing health care needs can leave individuals and families with inescapable financial burdens. My current research interests include clinical trials involving children and vulnerable populations, informed consent, patient and doctor autonomy, and resource allocation. I hope to work on the legal manifestations of bioethics and contribute to the creation of a system that will make our technology more available to our people. Upon graduating from Syracuse University, I will take the necessary measures that will allow me to dedicate my career to bridging the gap between scientific progress and health policy.
After graduating from the high school program of the University of North Carolina School of the Arts, I joined the corps of the Vienna State Opera Ballet. I danced professionally for four years thereafter with The Washington Ballet and independent choreographers in New York and North Carolina. Sustaining a debilitating injury, I joined the staff of nationally recognized performing arts physical therapy clinic in Washington, D.C. as a research assistant, where I conduct a phenomenological study on the experience of injury in the arts. Fascinated by the intersection of the humanities and the hard sciences, I spent the past semester at Georgetown University studying bioethics and the history of health policy. I intend to return to Columbia University in the fall to pursue my interests in philosophy, cognitive science, and the history of medicine. In my spare time I enjoy volunteering in the PICU, baking vegan desserts, learning to play the piano, and teaching yoga.
Originally from Amarillo, Texas, I have just finished my junior year at Yale University as the Political Science - Health Policy major. I am currently enrolled in the 5 year B.A./M.P.H. Program at the School of Public Health, with a concentration in Health Management. I was the coordinator of the Public Health Coalition at Yale and Director of AIDS Walk New Haven, a non-profit that raises funds for local organizations that provide services to the HIV/AIDS community. I have also served as a publisher/writer for P.H. Magazine: The Yale Journal of Public Health and the finance head of the Dwight Hall socially responsible investment fund. I am interested in theories of social justice and how they are put into practice in the medical field. I also really enjoy corny jokes, meeting new people, and discovering good YouTube videos.
I'm currently a Year 4 medical student at Keele University, UK and will graduate in July 2010. I am a very mature (almost geriatric) student and have had a career in oral and maxillofacial surgery for 10 years before coming back to medical school. I graduated in dentistry from Glasgow University in 1997, having already collected a BSc in Microbiology 2 years previously. I hope to now move my career direction towards pediatrics. I have always had a keen interest in medical ethics and plan to look further into pediatric-related bioethical issues, perhaps in relation to genetic and paternity testing and the implications this can have on children and their families. I plan to further my education in the future with a legal qualification related to medical ethics. My learning hasn't always been at university level – in 2005 I qualified as a yoga teacher and regularly taught until I went back to school. I continue to lecture in anatomy and physiology to trainee yoga teachers and had started a yoga therapy course, training with Kausthub Desikachar. I have an interest in complementary therapies and firmly believe that they have a place in 21st century medical practice alongside medicine and surgery. I am very grateful for the opportunity to study in this Bioethics summer school at Yale – while it is still part of my course in medical school, I am looking forward to discussing the wide range of bioethics issues from such a diverse and well-read group of students. We have a huge amount to learn from each other in addition to the presenters in lectures and seminars – a wealth of knowledge we can take to enrich our practicing careers and lives as a whole!
I am a junior in the Combined Program in Medicine at the University of Connecticut, majoring in bioethics in cross-cultural perspectives with a double minor in religion and philosophy. Although I have done a fair amount of lab work and shadowing of physicians, my real interests lay within the interaction betweens the different medical spheres and the corresponding ethics, especially as it relates to religion. As the president of Hillel at my school, religion plays a large role in my life; but my religious interests are not limited to Judaism, specifically. I have always enjoyed partaking in my friends' religious and cultural activities, if even just to gain insight about their background and perspectives. I also interned last summer at the Georgetown Center for Clinical bioethics, where I learned a lot more about Catholicism, researching specific bioethical issues in light of this framework. I continued my study of Catholic bioethics in Spain, on a bioethics trip through Case Western Reserve University. Additionally, I took a class in Oriental Philosophy and Religion this past semester, where I was able to learn about various traditions and write about the influence they have had on the medical system in India. Although much of my past research and interest has been in end-of-life issues, more recently, I have been interested in neonatology and genetic counseling with fertility treatments. Overall, I find the realm of bioethics to be both challenging and expansive. Mostly, I am interested in bioethics because it is a field where everyday I learn something new and intriguing that not only applies practically, but also guides me in shaping my more theoretical views on life and humanity.
I am a rising junior at Yale University majoring in Political Science with an interdisciplinary focus in Public Health Policy, and I hope to enter the Yale School of Public Health and Epidemiology BA/MPH program next winter. I became interested in Bioethics after taking Steve Latham's Bioethics and Law lecture in the fall of my sophomore year, and I have been hooked ever since. My main interest in Bioethics is justice in resource allocation, especially as it applies to organ transplantation. I am also involved with the planning of Model United Nations conferences on campus through the Yale International Relations Association, and hopes to someday be involved in rebuilding the public health infrastructure in Kosovo.
I am a student at the Yale School of Nursing, where I will graduate in 2011 as a pediatric nurse practitioner. I graduated in 2003 from Smith College, where I double majored in religion and government. After graduation, I worked as the volunteer and special projects coordinator for the Middlesex United Way in Middletown, CT. In 2004, I became an editor of Virtual Mentor, the ethics journal of the American Medical Association in Chicago, Illinois. While in Chicago, I was a participant on two institutional review boards at Northwestern Memorial Hospital and was a hospice and neonatal intensive care unit volunteer. I hope to pursue a career in pediatric oncology and my ethics interest is with communication among clinicians, patients, and parents in pediatric oncology settings.
I am a recent graduate of Biola University and the Torrey Honors Institute, both major influences in my academic pursuits and faith-integrated life. I spent much of my four years at Biola organizing educational events and starting programs to help Southern California women in crisis pregnancies. This August, I am joining Milstein, Adelman, and Kreger LLP in Santa Monica as a legal assistant for a one-year appointment. In the fall of 2010, I plan on attending law school to earn a Masters in Bioethics and a J.D. in Constitutional Law. I hope to work for a non-profit corporation part-time and raise a family, as well as publish scholarly journal articles about bioethics and law, and fictional short stories. My interdisciplinary interests and training lie in American history, analytic philosophy, education, cultural issues of sex and marriage, and bioethics. I spend my non-academic time with my boyfriend, my piano, and my horses in Southern California.
The interest in bioethics is a confluence of two worlds; the one in which I currently reside, the medical world, and the one which I aim to inhabit, the legal world. The desired direction change occurred to me when, during perusals of various periodicals, I found my attention diverted from headline-grabbing research, and instead held by the two-page editorials on stem-cell research, or the ethics of screening programmes. My training thus far has already presented to me myriad of situations, both emotive and thought-provoking, involving end-of-life ethics, healthcare distribution and rationing, and issues surrounding reproductive choices. The opportunities to discuss the personal and wider social impacts of such events within our home course are limited, and so to be accepted into a program which encourages precisely that is a welcome change. I am extremely fortunate to be given the chance to study at a university well-renowned for the intellectual excellence of its students, and I am certain that a successful completion of the summer school will stand me in great stead for the tortuous path I will tread to reach my ideal career.
Academic interests: Medical law, especially clinical negligence and malpractice litigation and reproductive law; assisted reproduction ethics, perinatal/neonatal ethics and pediatric ethics.
Extra-curricular interests: Fencing (highest national ranking for 2008-9 = 118)
Career aspirations: Medico-legal work for Trusts
I am a student at the University of Minnesota School of Law. I have an undergraduate degree from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and a Master of Public Health in Health Law, Bioethics, and Human Rights from Boston University. Prior to law school, I worked for several years on the staff of the Ethics Group of the American Medical Association (AMA), where I worked on issues in health policy and bioethics including health care access, medical professionalism, public trust, and medical education reform. I was also a researcher with the Health Research Educational Trust, the non-profit research affiliate of the American Hospital Association, for a project on health care disparities and medical privacy, and also served as a consultant to the AMA Public Health Group and Stanford Law School. In addition to the summer internship, I'll also be the teaching assistant for the Center's Law and Bioethics seminar. I like classic rock, BBQ, and the Green Bay Packers, but not in that order.
I have been actively engaged in the study of Ethics since my days at Loyola School in New York. I discovered Bioethics during my freshman year of college and have been taken with it ever since. I am especially interested in ethical questions surrounding perinatal and end-of-life care as well as informed consent. When not studying Bioethics, I enjoy trying to make people laugh and practicing my Italian with friends. In the Fall, I will enter Saint Louis University School of Law, where I have been named a Dean's Scholar. I plan to concentrate in Health Law, and am considering jointly pursuing a Ph.D. in Health Care Ethics.
My name is Lee Nutini, and I care about everything. The nature of my care stems from my understanding of the social contract within which our daily lives are navigated. This social contract, one which I uphold as the basis of any ethic, ought to be expanded to the fullest extent...an aim which has faltered in generations past. Our care for one another--what we owe to one another--creates within us a moral imperative, an obligation to give the best of ourselves to the wellness of the whole. Our own excellence ought to be utilized for others, and such reciprocity should continue eternally. Now, that is where I stand in terms of our world. What I see more specifically in my everyday dealings with others is an invasive pain, an insecurity that cannot easily be ignored. My interests are in improving the lives of as many people as possible before my own death, and the best way to do so, in my view, is to deal with an intimate problem that reigns over many if not most of those in our culture. The individual's struggle with health, nutrition, and obesity is so pervasive that it seems no success in life carries the same satisfaction as a success in one's struggle with weight. Seeing the faces of people every day who I am sure deal with these issues, whether they admit it or not, often brings me to tears. I once struggled with the same issues, and to an extent I still do. It is my job as an empowered and bright individual to bring about change in the way our culture feeds itself. We have been poisoning one another for far too long. We have forgotten the human behind the consumer. Little is known about the nature of the foods in our stores, and little is known about the long-term effects on the body. My calling is one to change the food culture in America. This will require much political, social, and environmental transformation. It must be done as soon as possible. With the obesity rates rising in America and elsewhere, we cannot afford to wait. Effecting change in the way in which our bodies are fed, felt, and understood is what I want to do for the rest of my life. I hope that with my efforts, more individuals will return to their lives with a weight lifted from their shoulders, with movement returned to their legs, and with renewed ability to work within the world for the world's people. I pledge my brain and sinew so that a burden, which had kept those of my society from the confidence, security, and happiness necessary to leading a fulfilling life, might be lifted.
I completed a bachelor's in Law in China, a Masters in Health, Population and Society from the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE), and a LLM from the University of Edinburgh. For 2007 to 2010, I was awarded University of Edinburgh College of Humanities and Social Sciences Studentship and Overseas Award to undertake a doctoral degree in law. I am now a PhD candidate at the Law School of the University of Edinburgh. My research interests include: medical law, healthcare governance, medical professional ethics, professionalism, biopower and biopolitics. Before attending the bioethics internship at Yale, I finished a research project sponsored by the French Centre for Research on Contemporary China (CEFC) to conduct a fieldwork about professionals' legal consciousnesses and bioethics in China. The empirical project will contribute to my doctoral research, which aims at developing a theoretical framework for analyzing the relationship between healthcare governance, medical law and bioethics in contemporary China and showing how it has been applied in empirical research on Chinese medical practitioners' decision-making.
I approach the biomedical world as someone who has spent time on both sides of the bioethics coin: as both a scientist and now as a philosopher in training. During my training as a biologist, I felt that little was discussed concerning the social consequences of our scientific actions and I was, and remain so, very uncomfortable with this idea. It seems to me that science and medicine do not happen in a bubble, what we create in our labs and hospitals are subject to public opinion and moral code. Due to this conviction, I chose to pursue a Masters degree in philosophy in order to broaden my understanding of the field of bioethics. Since arriving at the University of British Columbia I have been working on exactly the issues that interest me: the intersection between science and society. In the future I hope to look more closely at ethics surrounding the autonomy of fertility and infertility patients, and why certain conceptions of autonomy are better suited to different medical fields. I am particularly concerned with what it means to be properly informed and when an individual is no longer autonomous. As an extension of this I feel that bioethical education is crucial to being a fully autonomous person. While post-secondary academics are important, I feel that education is crucial at all levels, and for that reason when I'm not working on my Masters work I teach science and ethics to a group of British Columbian high school students. I hope to one day work as a bioethicist, as well as teach in a university setting.
I am a senior at Yale University studying Political Science interested in pursuing a career in law. I did not realize I even had an interest in bioethics until my sophomore year, while looking for courses involving issues relating to stem cells. During my freshman year, I took a seminar on stem cells that sought to explain the science of the emerging study while trying to grapple with the politics of it. I became captivated by the debates that ensued in the class and the idea of how anyone could potentially be right in their assessment of whether embryonic stem cells could be legal or not depending on their line of reasoning. Seeking to continue studying it, while looking for classes my sophomore year, I found only one course that spoke about stem cells—a course in bioethics. There I not only discovered stem cells were a "bioethical" issue, but also that there were dozens of other topics that are just as fascinating, all nestled within this very intriguing field. I continued to pursue this interest by taking several more courses relating to bioethics. My current interests in bioethics relate to end-of-life care and the autonomy of individuals with disabilities.
I am a senior at the University of Pennsylvania majoring in the Biological Basis of Behavior. After attending an IRB meeting at Johns Hopkins, I discovered my interest in bioethics and enthusiastically sought out the Penn (Undergraduate) Bioethics Journal and Society. The thriving bioethics community at Penn has allowed me to explore my interests in public health ethics, the ethics of reproductive technologies, and the cross-section between religion and bioethics. Last spring, I organized a panel discussion on the ethics of in-vitro fertilization from different religious perspectives. I also enjoy playing the concert harp and meeting others interested in Scandinavia (I was born in Turku, Finland).
I have luckily been introduced to bioethics via a more nontraditional way. Unfortunately, being an undergraduate at Columbia University, I do not have access to take a purely bioethically-based schedule. Instead, my Neuroscience and Behavior major and pre-med studies have merged with the philosophically-based core curriculum, and have introduced me to the bioethical issues that plague the world. Throughout high school, I dedicated my time to volunteering at the Empire State Games for the Physically Challenged as well as partaking in the Association for the Help of Retarded Children, where I was able to experience the daily struggles and rewards that routinely fazed disabled children. These experiences have extended my interests to the issues specifically targeting people with disabilities, such as procreative liberty and issues of neonatal care. The treatment of elderly people and end-of-life care are also areas in which I hope to dedicate my time throughout my professional career. I believe receiving this type of background in bioethics is essential for my future in medicine and clamping down on these ethical issues will increase the effectiveness of decision-making in tense situations.
I am a law student at the University of South Carolina School of Law, Class of 2010. My interest in Bioethics began during my high school career, during which time I attended UCLA for The National Youth Leadership Forum on Medicine in the summer of 2000. The Forum's focus that year was on a variety of bioethical issues, but I immediately became enamored with the myriad of issues surrounding embryonic stem cell research (ESCR). My interest in that topic continued into my undergraduate studies, which took me to Sydney, Australia during the summer of 2003. After graduation from college and a brief respite from academia, I enrolled in law school with the ultimate goal of aiding the Federal and State government in the development and implementation of law and public policy stances on embryonic stem cell research, therapy and treatment. I continue to believe in the value of this research and hope that it can be undertaken in such a way that will educate Americans on the precise issues and allay the concerns that many continue to have. I am delighted to add to my understanding of ESCR, as well as a variety of other bioethical issues, from the interdisciplinary approach of the Yale Bioethics Center.
I am currently studying for my Masters in Nursing at Yale University School of Nursing, focusing on women's health. I have been involved in bioethics projects in the past with topics such as assisted reproductive technologies and the law and the intersection of faith and science. This summer I hope to focus on bioethical issues surrounding women's reproductive choices in this country with the advent of new reproductive technologies.
I currently attend Queen's University, a Canadian institute located in southern Ontario. I am completing a degree in Health Studies, with a minor in Biopsychology. My interest in the subject emerged as a result of taking a course on bioethics, observing issues throughout my time working for a physician, and my experience in the hospital environment. Areas of bioethics that I am most interested in include genetic screening, genetic enhancement, surrogacy, IVF, and other issues surrounding the creation and modification of human life. After completing my time at Queen's, I anticipate receiving a Master's degree in Health Management or Health Care Policy in collaboration with a degree in Bioethics.
My interest in ethics began when I studied for my first degree in Biomedical Sciences. In 2002, I began my post-graduate studies in Medical Ethics as a nurse lecturer and I am currently in the second year of my Doctorate. I'm planning to do my thesis on the issue of responsibility and moral distress in nurses, particularly when asked to perform an action that they do not believe to be good. I would like to consider when is one responsible for one's acts? Can one perform and act and absolve oneself from responsibility for its consequences and if so does that allow for another sort of responsibility or a freedom that is beneficial to patients? I'm also in the process of writing a paper for the international nursing ethics conference in September which will look at the media response (and ethical arguments presented) to the nurse who was struck off the professional register for undercover filming of vulnerable patients for a well known news programme 'Panorama'.
Originally from Baltimore, Maryland, I presently attend the University of Maryland, Baltimore County, where I am a member of the Honors College. Prior to beginning college, I spent a year abroad in Israel, studying advanced topics in Jewish ethics, philosophy and law. I am currently in my junior year and have elected to study philosophy and biology. I view bioethics as the natural interface of these two important disciplines. My interest in bioethics has been enriched by my volunteer experience as a Patient-Family Advocate in the Emergency Department at the Johns Hopkins Hospital, where I have been exposed to myriad real-life scenarios in which issues central to bioethics emerged. A task of particular interest to me within the field of bioethics is examining the philosophical framework and ethical theory grounding standards of care in medicine and public health. Aside from my academic pursuits, I serve as the Founding Director of Healing Harmonies, a student-run volunteer organization which connects student musicians with the elderly and ill in arranging musical performances. On campus, I serve as the chapter President of S.T.A.N.D., a student organization committed to raising awareness about genocide around the world, am Public Relations Chair for the UMBC Bioethics Student Association, am on the editorial board for Bartleby - an undergraduate creative-arts journal, and fence for the UMBC fencing team. Following graduation, I plan to pursue a career in medicine and to continue my studies in philosophy on the graduate level.

The NFL Draft kicks off on Thursday night, and every team can improve its roster, from the Kansas City Chiefs holding the No. 1 overall selection to the defending Super Bowl champion Ravens picking at No. 32.
There has already been a lot of action this offseason in the free agent market, and there is sure to be more in the coming months, but the draft is the often the best opportunity for teams to find long-term solutions at positions of need. With that in mind, we took a look at each team and what their biggest needs are going into the draft.

Has anyone bought one of these? I fancy saving the $100 but don't want one if its going to be all scratched and look second-hand. I guess it should be reliable as it's been checked again and has the 1yr guarantee. Are these really nearly as good as new?

Publishers WeeklyIn this companion to the documentary of the same name, filmmakers Hanson and Herman distill advice, anecdotes and warnings from 50 screenwriters, including Shane Black (Lethal Weapon), John Carpenter (Halloween), Nora Ephron (Julie & Julia), and William Goldman (The Princess Bride). Divided by topic, the text covers a wide range of issues regarding the notoriously elusive career, including the ins and outs of a first sale; dealing with producers, directors and actors; staying positive and productive in the face of rejection; and the Hollywood system at large. Aspiring screenwriters will instantly recognize most of the bold-faced names, though they won't find much help regarding the mechanics of screenwriting. Anyone who's wondered how their favorite scribe landed her first film job, or what happens behind the headlines of a high-profile spec sale, will find plenty of information, as well as general advice and inspiration.

Irena's Vow Marks Holocaust Remembrance Day April 21
By Adam Hetrick
Four-time Tony nominee Tovah Feldshuh and the company of Broadway's Irena's Vow will hold a candlelight ceremony in honor of Holocaust Remembrance Day April 21.
Additional members of the Broadway community are expected to attend the Yom HaShoah ceremony, which takes place at 6:45 PM outside the Walter Kerr Theatre where Irena's Vow plays.
First inaugurated in 1951, Yom HaShoah is observed as a day of commemoration for the approximately six million Jews who lost their lives in the Holocaust.
Irena's Vow, according to the producers, "is the uplifting true story about one of the most courageous and unsung heroines of World War II. During the German occupation of Poland, Irena Gut Opdyke (Feldshuh), a Polish Catholic, was forced to work as head housekeeper for a very prominent Nazi major. Over a two year period of service, Irena would risk her own life in order to save the lives of twelve Jewish refugees whom she secretly took under her care. Irena's Vow is the extraordinary story of one woman's choice and the twelve lives that would ultimately be saved — or lost — by her decision."
Michael Parva directs the production that began previews on Broadway March 10 and officially opened at the Walter Kerr Theatre on March 29.
The complete cast of Irena's Vow includes Sandi Carroll, Tracee Chimo, Steven Hauck, Scott Klavan, Peter Reznikoff, Thomas Ryan, Gene Silvers, John Stanisci and Maja Wampuszyc.
Tovah Feldshuh received Tony Award nominations for her work in Golda's Balcony, Yentl, Sarava and Lend Me a Tenor. Her theatre roles have also garnered the actress four Drama Desk Awards, four Outer Critics Circle Awards, an Obie and a Theatre World Award.
Tickets, priced $41-$98, are available by visiting Telecharge.com or by calling (212) 239-6200. The Walter Kerr Theatre is located in Manhattan at 219 West 48th Street.

But, why is the device running so hot? I downloaded 1 app and the back of the device (bottom left side across from the speaker grill) is running really hot. Anyone else notice this?

Art to Zoo: Exploring Animal Natures
September 28, 2014 – January 4, 2015
Photographers in Art to Zoo reveal the complex, thoughtful, and often elegant ways in which animals touch, see, and hear the world. Using non-invasive imaging techniques, scientists and animal behaviorists are finding irrefutable evidence that other species know vastly more than heretofore thought. The ancient Greeks had a class of animals that were semi-divine; the Egyptians worshipped animal deities; the pre-Columbians, a feathered serpent. Animals throughout human history have been revered and reviled, treasured and feared, yet little has been established as scientific fact until relatively recently. Throughout this macro to micro look at the animal world, the belief in overall human superiority is proved suspect, if not arrogant.

OMAHA, Neb. — Residents of northeast Nebraska are continuing to clean up after a several strong tornadoes moved through the area.
Wayne, Neb., saw some of the greatest damage from tornadoes where where at least 10 buildings were destroyed and five were heavily damaged in the town of 5,700, the Omaha World-Herald reported.
The National Weather Service says the tornado that struck Wayne had peak winds up to 170 mph, so it ranked EF4. That's near the top of the five-point Enhanced Fujita scale for tornadoes.
(MORE: EF-4 Damage Found in Wayne, Neb.)
Mayor Ken Chamberlain said at least 15 people were injured, with one person in critical condition. He said all of the residents in the northeast Nebraska town were accounted for, but the storm caused millions of dollars in damage and rebuilding will be slow.
Three farm houses were damaged in Antelope County.
A separate supercell southeast of the Wayne storm began in Thurston County, Neb., striking the town of Macy. Two people were slightly injured there, and six homes were damaged to the extent they were deemed uninhabitable. One business and 12 other homes were damaged to a lesser degree.
That tornado tracked northeast across the Missouri River into northwestern Monona County and southwestern Woodbury County of Iowa, staying west of Whiting and Sloan and causing damage to some agricultural equipment. The tornado was rated an EF-2 with estimated maximum winds of 120 mph.
The American Red Cross opened two shelters -- one in Wayne and one in Macy -- to help those displaced by a tornado in northeast Nebraska.
In Iowa, a mile-wide tornado was spotted shortly before 7 p.m. Friday in the northwest town of Moville, in Woodbury County. Early witness reported indicated that the town had seen major damage. Homes were reported destroyed in the town of Pierson, and power poles were down in the town of Quimby.
At least two EF-1 tornadoes touched down near Jefferson, S.D., about 10 miles northwest of Sioux City. Traveling north, the tornado crossed the Big Sioux River and went into Plymouth County, Iowa. The wind speeds were estimated at 100 mph and local firefighters reported considerable damage in the town, according the National Weather Service.
Meteorologists with the National Weather Service said they were still trying to figure out exactly how many tornadoes touched down Friday evening.
The Associated Press contributed to this report.

"Less of my dirty laundry & more of the things I find inspirational": Patrick Wolf on Lupercalia
You could never, by any stretch of the imagination, accuse Patrick Wolf of a lack of effort, invention and drive. In the nine years since he emerged blinking onto the scene as a quixotic, blonde wonderboy armed with a treasure chest packed full with the weird and the wonderful, he has crafted no less than five albums and two EP's; each one a significant variation and progression on the musical themes of its predecessor. »
