In today's Gospel we hear Jesus cry out for our love and faithfulness:
"I have come to set the earth on fire,
and how I wish it were already blazing!
Saint Paul seems to understand the desire of the Lord. He prays that we may understand
what is the breadth and length and height and depth,
and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge,
(and) be filled with all the fullness of God.

The Beauty of God
God is love. Love is never ugly, and God's love is always creating beauty in place of irregularity and unevenness.1 And at best we come to see and understand that fragmentation and precariousness ultimately belong to the phenomenon of beauty, because through fragmentation the beautiful ultimately reveals the promise it contains.2 The crucified and risen Jesus reveals that beauty may be hidden behind fragmentation and woundedness: the beauty of love seemingly concealed but really present.

Jesus' answer to the disciples of the Pharisees in today's Gospel, "Repay to Caesar what belongs to Caesar and to God what belongs to God", is remarkable for its clarity and good sense. He is able to respond to the conundrum presented by the Pharisees with such a limpid and liberating interpretation of the law, because of his standpoint at the heart of the covenant. It is where he lives. His understanding and sovereign freedom come from living the covenant at its core.
Just as the coin bears the image and inscription of Caesar and so belongs to him, so does man who bears the image of God and have his word inscribed in his heart belong to God and so ought to give his life wholly to him. Jesus' response is so right because it is in accord with his experience. He receives everything from the Father and gives everything back to him in total conformity to the mission the Father has entrusted to him. He is handed over wholly to the Father's will.
The Greek word translated as "image", for the "image" on the coin, is "icon". Jesus is the archetypal icon of God, since he "bears the very stamp of his nature" and "reflects his glory." He is the face of the Father present in human history. It is not his own glory that he radiates but his Father's. It is his own only in so far as it comes from the Father. Therefore Jesus is the icon of God only in so far as he does not determine his life but lets his Father shape it.
God must be free to shape and mold us, so that we too may become radiant vessels of his glory. If we are to be icons of Jesus, if through us individually and as a community, his face is to shine and be visible to others, then as he allowed the Father to give form to his life, so must we allow Jesus to shape our lives through the action of his Spirit. As monks, this can happen no place else than at the heart of our conversatio, our way of life.
In the Pharisees of today's Gospel, we see a form of life that no longer conformed to the original form of the covenant but had in many ways hardened into a human form. Reduced in its capacity to be an icon of God's glory, Pharisaism often tragically blinded its adherents to Jesus and his message. It had for these people become an idol.
Each of us has been entrusted with a mission to be in Jesus an icon of God. Each of us also has his idols, which dim our vision and in some matters make us blind. Our Cistercian way of life is a sure path I believe that if fully embraced strips us of our idols and allows the Holy Spirit to shape our lives so that they become less and less a self-construct and more and more an authentic and credible icon of God's triune love. May he bring this about in us.

Ignatius of Antioch
Ignatius of Antioch, old but self-possessed, goes off to Rome and martyrdom in the arena; ardent, focused, burning with love for Christ. He begs not to be deterred from his goal:
All the way from Syria to Rome I am fighting with wild beasts, by land and sea, night and day, chained as I am to ten leopards (I mean to a detachment of soldiers), who only get worse the better you treat them. But by their injustices I am becoming a better disciple, "though not for that reason am I acquitted." What a thrill I shall have from the wild beasts that are ready for me! I hope they will make short work of me. I shall coax them on to eat me up at once and not to hold off, as sometimes happens, through fear. And if they are reluctant, I shall force them to it. Forgive me— I know what is good for me. Now is the moment I am beginning to be a disciple. May nothing seen or unseen begrudge me making my way to Jesus Christ. Come fire, cross, battling with wild beasts, wrenching of bones, mangling of limbs, crushing of my whole body, cruel tortures of the devil— only let me get to Jesus Christ!
Not the wide bounds of earth nor the kingdoms of this world will avail me anything. "I would rather die" and get to Jesus Christ, than reign over the ends of the earth. That is whom I am looking for— the One who died for us. That is whom I want— the One who rose for us. I am going through the pangs of being born. Sympathize with me, my brothers! Do not stand in the way of my coming to life— do not wish death on me. Do not give back to the world one who wants to be God's; do not trick him with material things.
Odilon Redon, The Sacred Heart. Lines from Saint Ignatius: Letter to the Romans .

The Gospel everywhere urges us to allow the irresistible tenderness of Christ to invade our person and take over our every thought, feeling and action. Realistically, however, none of us can by nature be as selfless as Christ, the Good Samaritan who has only to glance at a wounded or needy person to shudder with mercy. The problem is not so much that of willfully imposing on ourselves a strict consistency between faith and action; it is more a matter of allowing the power of the Christ, who has given himself to me with love, to have its full effect in my person.

Christ Jesus wants more of me, more of you. What the more is, each of us probably knows somewhere, way down in the depths of our own heart. The candidates and those in formation are well aware of what they have to lose, what's at stake. And certainly our brethren in the infirmary, those whose health is precarious, know what they have to lose and why it's worth it. Something big is in the balance- life on high with Christ Jesus our Lord. Perhaps for those of us in the middle a bit of dawdling may be the cushion we need when the monastic life seems to be too much for us. But Jesus asks us for more. Jesus is impatient with anything that might impede his access to our hearts. And he wants us to come to him for everything we need.

This weekend we will once again host a group of candidates for a Monastic Experience Weekend. We are always edified by their openness and their real desire to understand how God's invitation is being communicated to them. We often invite them to ponder these words from the Prophet Jeremiah:
I know well the plans I have in mind for you, plans for your welfare, not for woe! Plans to give you a future full of hope. When you call me, when you go to pray to me, I will listen to you. When you look for me, you will find me. Yes, when you seek me with all your heart, you will find me with you, and I will change your lot. Jeremiah 29.11-14

Customers in the 53092 ZIP code will be asked their mailing address preference, Mequon or Thiensville, in a survey being mailed to all households.
The United States Postal Service database currently lists Thiensville as the actual city for the ZIP code, with Mequon the default city.
In September the city of Mequon asked the USPS to consider a change, making Mequon the actual city and Thiensville the default city.
Thiensville has gone on record as being opposed to the change.
Mail will continue to be delivered to all addresses in the ZIP code regardless of whether Mequon or Thiensville is written on the envelope, and the Post Office, located at 124 W. Freistadt Road, Thiensville, will continue to be the Thiensville Post Office.
Residents need to mark a box on a two-choice survey and return it in the self-addressed, postage-paid return envelope by Nov. 28.

From the October 20 edition of Fox News' The O'Reilly Factor:
Loading the player reg...
National women's organization NARAL: Pro-Choice America and MoveOn are calling out The Denver Post's recent endorsement of Republican Senate candidate Rep. Cory Gardner (CO), running a full-page ad in the paper's Sunday edition that highlights the Post's omission of Gardner's anti-choice policy positions that "deeply conflict with the paper's previous editorial stances."
An October 17 announcement from NARAL: Pro-Choice America and MoveOn.org Political Action declared that the two organizations are teaming up in an effort to "rebuke" The Denver Post's recent "misguided endorsement" of Cory Gardner. Criticizing the news outlet for glossing over Gardner's extreme stance on personhood legislation as well as his positions on climate change and immigration, the organizations will run a full-page ad in the Post's Sunday edition as well as an online ad on DenverPost.com:
A hard-hitting, full-page ad from MoveOn.org Political Action and NARAL Pro-Choice America running inthis Sunday's Denver Post blasts the state's largest newspaper for endorsing Cory Gardner, a far-right candidate who holds views that deeply conflict with the paper's previous editorial stances. MoveOn.org Political Action and NARAL Pro-Choice America are running the print ad as well as online ads on DenverPost.com.
The print ad highlights contrasts between previous positions from The Denver Post editorial board and Gardner's stance on issues including a woman's right to choose, global warming, and immigration reform.
Contrary to The Denver Post's refusal to hold Gardner accountable for his position on fetal personhood legislation, which would greatly infringe on women's access to health care and legal abortion, NARAL and MoveOn's recent ad follows the lead of other media figures unwilling to give Gardner's incomprehensible stance on personhood a pass.
From the October 16 edition of Fox News' The Kelly File:
Loading the player reg...
A Colorado reporter called out Republican Senate candidate Cory Gardner's efforts to conceal the fact that the federal personhood bill he co-sponsored would end abortion, a refreshing contrast to other media figures' refusal to hold Gardner accountable for his stance.
In the October 15 debate between Gardner and Democratic incumbent Sen. Mark Udall, Kyle Clark, a reporter for NBC-affiliate KUSA, pressed Gardner on his continued denial that the Life At Conception Act is a federal personhood bill that would effectively end abortion procedures, by granting human eggs at fertilization the rights of a living person. Clark emphasized the fact that Gardner is a co-sponsor of the bill, which independent fact checkers widely agree would end abortion, and asked what the candidate's denial says about his judgment and willingness to hide the truth:
CLARK: You continue to deny that the federal Life At Conception Act, which you sponsor, is a personhood bill to end abortion -- and we are not going to debate that here tonight because that's a fact. Your co-sponsors say so; your opponents say so; and independent fact-checkers say so. So let's instead talk about what this entire episode may say about your judgment more broadly. It would seem that a charitable interpretation would be that you have a difficult time admitting when you're wrong, and a less charitable interpretation is that you're not telling us the truth. Which is it?
Gardner's support for personhood legislation has previously been glossed over by many in the media. The Denver Post's editorial board endorsed the candidate by claiming he posed "no threat to abortion rights," a declaration that completely ignores Gardner's support of the federal personhood legislation that would severely handicap women's access to health care and legal abortion.
Syndicated Washington Post columnist George Will echoed the Denver Post's endorsement, claiming that the issue of reproductive rights had already been settled and would not be affected by Gardner's election.
Thankfully, as Clark made clear in his questioning of Gardner, not all media figures are willing to give Gardner a pass on his incomprehensible personhood stance.
Fox News is claiming that Democratic campaigns and supporters are vastly outspending their Republican counterparts during this election cycle, a suggestion that appears to focus on super PACs and ignores the influence of "dark money" spending that favors the GOP.
On the October 10 edition of America's Newsroom, host Bill Hemmer stated that Democrats have "got a lot of money ... and they're spending it, in some states, 4-to-1 over Republican candidates." National Review Online editor-at-large and Fox News contributor Jonah Goldberg repeated a similar claim on the October 13 edition of Happening Now, downplaying secretive right-wing donors like the Koch brothers and arguing that "the reality is, is that most of the money is actually on the Democratic side" in contentious Senate races like the one in Kentucky:
HEATHER CHILDERS (guest host): So, a lot of this also is coming down to money. And we are talking about big amounts of money that are being spent from both sides in these particular states, so how is that going to influence things?
GOLDBERG: Sure, well, it depends on state by state. You know, in some of these places, you just don't have enough physical airtime in the space-time continuum to buy more ads. I mean, people are throwing in -- you know, the Democrats are just announcing [unintelligible] a million dollars into South Dakota. A million dollars probably would buy, you know, who knows how much airtime in South Dakota at this point. And so you're seeing things saturated all over the place. One of the things that has helped Democrats enormously is, they have actually raised vastly more money than Republicans have at a lot of these different levels. They're spending a lot more money. In North Carolina, they're outspending Republicans, I think, 2-to-1, and yet they claim that it's all the evil Koch brothers and their sort of other James Bond-like villains who are throwing all the money into Republicans. When the reality is, is that most of the money is actually on the Democratic side, but a lot of the mainstream media covers it as if, "Oh, it must be the Republicans who are taking advantage of all of this outside money." [emphasis added]
On October 15, Fox News correspondent Jim Angle continued the network's inapt comparison of the Koch brothers to high-dollar Democratic donors. Angle didn't mention that unlike the progressive billionaires and unions he highlighted, conservative activists like the Kochs are unwilling to publicly stand behind the right-wing policies their billions of dollars fund.
Fox News' narrative is misrepresenting the full and current story on campaign spending, which actually shows that a deluge of undisclosed outside money is supporting Republicans and outpacing similar expenditures for Democrats -- especially in the Kentucky contest.
The 4-to-1 statistic that Hemmer used may be a reference to a widely cited report from The Wall Street Journal that found super PACs aligned with Democrats had raised four times more than their Republican counterparts. By focusing on super PAC figures, Fox News is ignoring massive spending from outside right-wing groups like the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, Fox News contributor Karl Rove's Crossroads GPS, and the Koch brothers' network of secretive and increasingly political groups. These organizations don't reveal their donors, and sometimes -- depending on the type of ad they are running -- they don't even reveal their expenditures. Groups of that sort have spent more "dark money" -- funds from undisclosed donors -- than Democratic-leaning groups have.
National Review editor Rich Lowry equated Kentucky senate candidate Alison Lundergan Grimes' refusal to disclose which presidential candidate she voted for in 2012 with former Republican Rep. Todd Akin's (MO) stunning claim that it is "really rare" for a woman to become pregnant as a result of "a legitimate rape." Lowry suggested the two positions were politically equivalent "gaffes," whitewashing the fact that Akin's statement was not only absurdly disconnected from scientific reality -- it also happened to reflect actual policy priorities of the Republican Party.
During an October 10 interview with the editorial board of The Louisville Courier-Journal, Grimes said she "respect[ed] the sanctity of the ballot box" when asked if she voted for President Obama in past elections. During an October 13 candidate debate, Grimes reiterated her stance on voter privacy:
GRIMES: This is a matter of principle. Our constitution grants, here in Kentucky, the constitutional right to privacy at the ballot box, for a secret ballot. You have that right, Senator McConnell has that right, every Kentuckian has that right.
GRIMES: I am not going to compromise a constitutional right provided here in Kentucky in order to curry favor on one or other side or for members of the media.
In an October 15 column published by Politico Magazine, Lowry exclaimed that "Alison Lundergan Grimes is the Todd Akin of 2014," and argued that Grimes' stated position defending the secret ballot was "a defining political gaffe" for this election. He likened her comments to then-Rep. Todd Akin's infamous statements about rape and pregnancy, in which Akin stated that pregnancies resulting from rape are rare because, "if it's a legitimate rape, the female body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down." Lowry argued that the two candidates represented similar levels of political ineptitude, writing that each was "telegenic, mockable and universally condemned."
Grimes' decision to stand on principle with regard to voter privacy has been labeled a "gaffe" by some, but, as MSNBC's Steve Benen pointed out, it is "an issue the media has deemed extremely important, but which actually affects no one."
By comparison, Akin's alarming comments on rape and pregnancy were reflected to varying degrees in actual policy decisions favored by Republican elected officials and candidates. Akin would later attempt to clarify his remarks amid a "firestorm" of controversy, but maintained his opposition to legal abortion access for women -- a constitutional right codified by the Supreme Court in its 1973 Roe v. Wade decision. In 2012, many prominent Republican candidates and conservative media figures supported banning safe and legal abortion, making the issue a central part of campaign rhetoric.
In October 2012, Indiana Republican senate candidate Richard Mourdock voiced his opposition to abortion "even when life begins in that terrible situation of rape," stating that "it is something that God intended to happen." Around the same time, Republican Rep. Joe Walsh of Illinois supported a ban on all abortion, including cases that would threaten the life of the mother. Walsh falsley claimed that "modern technology and science" had solved the problem of potentially life-threatening pregnancies. During a 2007 Republican presidential debate, Mitt Romney said "we don't want to have abortion in this country at all, period." He went on to state that it would be "terrific" if Congress passed a bill outlawing abortion, which he would be "delighted" to sign. Romney dodged abortion questions throughout his 2012 campaign, but promised to eliminate federal funding for women's health organizations like Planned Parenthood and vowed to be "a pro-life president."
Outlawing access to abortion remains a lightning rod for conservative media, with some right-wing outlets going so far as to tie debates about legal abortion to the crimes of convicted murderer Kermit Gosnell. Right-wing media figures like Karl Rove have pushed the myth that some forms of contraception are actually forms of abortion, while others such as Bill O'Reilly advanced extremist views on fetal "personhood" that would criminalize most abortions.
There is no appropriate comparison between Akin's extreme rhetoric and false scientific claims, and Grimes' personal defense of privacy at the ballot box.
Washington Post columnist George Will ignored Colorado GOP Senate candidate Cory Gardner's controversial policy positions on women's rights to smear Sen. Mark Udall (D-CO) as a one issue candidate. But Gardner has supported measures that would severely limit women's reproductive choice.
On October 10, the Denver Post editorial board endorsed Republican Cory Gardner citing Udall's prioritization of what the Post called "his obnoxious one-issue campaign" on women's issues like abortion.
George Will parroted the Post's criticism of Udall on the October 14 edition Special Report with Bret Baier. Will claimed that "the whole war on women thing has been really worn out by this point," adding that the issue has been settled because contraception and abortion rights have been firmly ingrained in America for more than 40 years:
The Wall Street Journal is dismissing efforts to convince corporations to be more transparent about their political contributions as "partisan agitprop," despite the fact that the conservative justices of the Supreme Court reaffirmed the need for such transparency in 2010's Citizens United decision.
Although a majority of Americans from across the political spectrum disagree with the court's decision in Citizens United and support a bipartisan effort to reduce the unprecedented influx of campaign spending and "dark money" in politics, the Journal isn't convinced that transparency and disclosure for corporations playing politics is worthwhile. In an October 14 editorial, the Journal complained that groups like the Center for Political Accountability targeted corporations in an attempt to "discourage businesses from participating in politics" by publishing an index that ranks companies based on how transparent they are about their political expenditures. The goal of the index is to encourage corporations to disclose their campaign contributions to their shareholders, since it is the shareholders' money that is financing the political spending in the first place.
But the editorial was unsupportive of the group's activities, despite the fact that the conservatives on the Supreme Court upheld campaign finance disclosures in their majority opinion in Citizens United as indispensable to their decision that corporations can influence elections as freely as actual voters:
Hey shareholders, want some stock tips from a nonprofit outfit that wants to discourage businesses from participating in politics? That's the dubious message from a new index designed to block the political speech of corporations while leaving unions free to donate as they please.
Every year, the George Soros-funded Center for Political Accountability publishes the Wharton-Zicklin index, which ranks companies based on their political disclosure. When the group isn't publishing the index, it spends its time pushing for shareholder proxy proposals that would force companies to disclose their political activity.
The activist group's tactics have also included pressuring companies to cave pre-emptively and disclose political activity for fear of becoming targets. The index ranks companies according to their political transparency and disclosure profile. The Center for Political Accountability then uses those rankings as a truncheon to lobby CEOs to advertise how and how much they spend on campaigns and lobbying.
Most shareholders aren't buying it, but the disclosure gambit deserves to be exposed as the partisan agitprop it is.

The Denver Post's endorsement of Republican Senate candidate Rep. Cory Gardner (CO) claimed that he posed "no threat to abortion rights," a declaration that ignores Gardner's support of federal personhood legislation that would greatly infringe on women's access to health care and legal abortion.
Fox News Sunday hosted Karl Rove to analyze Senate midterm elections without disclosing his role with political organizations that have spent millions of dollars supporting Republican candidates in those races.
On the October 12 edition of Fox News Sunday, host Chris Wallace was joined by Rove and Democratic strategist Joe Trippi to discuss "the hottest races" in 2014. While Rove was introduced as "the architect of George W. Bush's two presidential victories" and described in on-screen text as a "former Bush White House advisor," no mention was made of his current political activities or affiliations. Rove commented on three Senate races in which his political groups have made a significant financial investment. Rove said he believed Republican Joni Ernst would win in Iowa because she had "united the party," claimed that voters in North Carolina would reject Democratic Sen. Kay Hagan because it's the only way to "send a message to Obama," and praised Alaska Republican candidate Dan Sullivan's energy policy.
Rove co-founded and advises two political organizations, American Crossroads and Crossroads GPS, that have spent nearly $8 million dollars against Democratic candidates in the Alaska, Iowa, and North Carolina races, according to the Center for Responsive Politics. Rove's political network poured more than $4.5 million in additional spending into those races in support of the Republican candidates.
American Crossroads has also received $300,000 from Dan Sullivan's parents. Sullivan's father reportedly "doesn't know with certainty that the funds will be spent on his son's race," telling Bloomberg News, "That will be up to the discretion of Karl Rove."
This is the second time in four weeks that the program has allowed Rove to provide election analysis without noting his role in attempting to influence those same races.
Later in the broadcast, Fox contributor Carly Fiorina predicted that Ernst and Cory Gardner, the Republican candidate for Senate in Colorado, would win, praising the candidates for "very clear platforms about what they think the priorities of this nation should be." Neither Fiorina nor Wallace noted that Fiorina heads the Unlocking Potential PAC, which has spent nearly $150,000 in support of the Ernst and Gardner campaigns.
Here is the full segment featuring Rove:
From the October 12 edition of NBC's Meet the Press:

Rock The Vote president Ashley Spillane responded to Fox News hosts' criticism of the campaign encouraging young people to vote, saying the hosts' declaration that they don't want young people to vote if they "don't know the issues," is "crazy."
During the October 8 edition of Fox News' Outnumbered, co-hosts Kennedy and Harris Faulkner chided the Rock The Vote "#TurnOutForWhat" campaign aimed at motivating young people to vote in the 2014 midterm elections "for the issues that matter to them." Faulkner claimed the campaign "is about kids getting high, getting drunk," and asked "do you really want to motivate them to vote and be ignorant at the polls?" Kennedy agreed saying "no" she didn't want young people to vote if they don't know the issues.
On October 9, Spillane responded on HuffPost Live, calling the view that young people shouldn't vote "crazy." She further explained that their comments exemplified a "problematic take on youth voting in American media":
Fox News provided a platform for Iowa Senate Candidate Joni Ernst (R) to recite talking points during an interview on the network, but neglected to ask Ernst about any of her controversial policy positions that are garnering widespread criticism across other media outlets.
During the October 10 edition of America's Newsroom, host Martha MacCallum interviewed Ernst about her campaign for the U.S. Senate opposite Democrat Bruce Braley. After highlighting a clip of Ernst's infamous campaign ad featuring the castration of pigs, MacCallum asked Ernst a series of softball questions including:
1. Were you nervous that that ad might backfire on you, Joni?
2. There's a huge ground game, Democratic ground game, very strong in Iowa left over even from President Obama's runs there. How are you going to compete with that?
3. How many undecided voters do you believe are out there right now, and what do you think is the major issue that's on their minds? What are they torn between and how are you going to reach them?
4. So I'm hearing in the local reporting that there's an increase in requests for absentee ballots from Independents and also from Democrats, so there's definitely an effort by your opponent to get out some of these voters who maybe don't usually vote in midterm elections. How does your ground game match up to what they're doing?
Fox's mild string of questions failed to get to the heart of Ernst's controversial platform. While MacCallum's inquiries into Ernst's "ground game" strategies provided the candidate a platform to discuss her own talking points, the interview failed to include the full scope of Ernst's controversial policy positions which have come under fire from other media outlets.
The Washington Post recently criticized the candidate for attempting to "cover her tracks" by backtracking on her previous support for a 'Personhood' amendment -- which would amend the state Constitution, preventing access to preventative health services for women including abortion and various forms of contraception.
ThinkProgress pointed out that Ernst is one of many Republican politicians that admit to "not knowing the science of climate change, but remain happy declaring we need do nothing about it," and noted that Ernst's climate denial was an issue so important it could cost her the election.
Time highlighted Ernst's promotion of a Glenn Beck-created fringe conspiracy theory about the "United Nations' superseding U.S. laws, states nullifying federal laws and impeaching Obama."
In a piece asking "How Does This GOP Senate Candidate Keep Getting Away With Such Terrible Gaffes," Mother Jones noted that Ernst has alleged that Obama has "become a dictator" and may deserve impeachment.
But any discussion of these extreme viewpoints were noticeably missing from today's interview.
Fox News often acts as the communications arm of the GOP, promoting their candidates in the days leading up to elections.
Fox News is calling recent court decisions blocking voter ID laws a "setback," despite the fact that these decisions will allow more people to engage in the political process.
On October 9, the Supreme Court issued an order temporarily blocking Wisconsin's voter ID law -- a law that The New York Times called "one of the strictest in the nation." Even though these kinds of voter ID laws disproportionately affect people of color and in-person voter fraud is almost nonexistent, right-wing media outlets has repeatedly celebrated them. National Review Online was highly supportive of Wisconsin's law in particular, and it called fears that the new ID requirements would cause "chaos at the polls" overblown because "there has been no such 'chaos' in any of the other states that have implemented voter-ID laws over the past ten years."
Elsewhere, in Texas, a federal court struck down that state's voter ID law -- another stringent law that right-wing media have described as "a good thing." However, in its ruling, the court called Texas' law an "unconstitutional poll tax" that "has an impermissible discriminatory effect against Hispanics and African-Americans and was imposed with an unconstitutional discriminatory purpose."
Yet Fox News was apparently unmoved by the Texas court's proclamation that the right to vote "defines our nation as a democracy." On the October 10 edition of America's Newsroom, host Martha MacCallum said the "timing" of the orders was "very interesting." Her co-host, Bill Hemmer, said the decisions were "the latest setbacks" to laws "meant to crack down on voter fraud":
The timing is interesting, but probably not in the way MacCallum thinks. Although the court's order doesn't say why it stopped Wisconsin's law from being implemented, SCOTUSblog's Lyle Denniston suggested that "the fact that this year's election is less than a month away may have been the key factor." In its brief in the Wisconsin case, the ACLU also argued that "[n]o court has permitted a voter ID law to go into effect this close to an election based on last-minute changes to the law." Had the law been implemented before the 2014 election, hundreds of thousands of Wisconsin voters could have been affected. According to the ACLU and the Advancement Project, state officials would have had "to issue some 6,000 IDs per day between now and the election" to ensure that every eligible voter had the required form of identification.

This review is from: SanDisk Extreme 64GB microSD 64G Extended Capacity microSDXC Class 10 UHS-I up to 45MBps with USB 2.0 Card Reader
Pros: I have two of these. One I use in my Canon EOS Rebel SL1 8575B003 Black 18.0 MP the other in my tablet. The best read speeds I've been able to get out of it are 2.8GB/min. That was using a USB3 PCIE adaptor but I have an old computer so if you have a computer with USB 3.0 on it and you have a USB 3.0 card reader you may see faster speeds. Using USB 2.0 the best speed was 1.4GB/min Not that the USB dongle that comes with this is USB 2.0. Unfortunately the write speed is much slower, somewhere around 4min per GB. But if you are using this with a camera it is fast enough for the camera and transferring the files off is supper fast.
Cons: Wright speeds are a bit slow.READ FULL REVIEW

Pros: Came free with camera. Its fine, for a backup card but I use a SanDisk Extreme 64GB microSD 64G Extended Capacity microSDXC Class 10 UHS-I as a primary card.

This review is from: Canon EOS Rebel SL1 8575B003 Black 18.0 MP Digital SLR Camera with 18-55mm IS STM Lens
Pros: I purchased this to shoot interviews and green screen movies in HD, i.e. not a lot of movement and fixed focal length. It's light, as far as DSLR's go and the focus motors are dead quiet. One thing I did not know when getting this is that it does not have a motorized zoom i.e. you have to twist the adjustment on the lens. The auxiliary audio input works great. I am using it with a wireless Sony mic and it is nice and clear. I also use the HDMI out to go to a LCD monitor while shooting and that works well also. It displays the live feed coming from the camera and also around the edge of the frame it displays the modes and settings you are using. The only thing that is not so great is the auto focus. It easily gets confused if someone turns away from the camera. To resolve this I focus the camera before shooting then switch to manual focus. This is just a switch on the lens. It says it only shoots for about 10 min but it just starts a new file after 10min you can keep shooting. i.e. if you shoot for 25mini you wind up with 3 files.
Cons: Auto focus sucks for video, but fine for stillsREAD FULL REVIEW

'Norway attack suspect had anti-Muslim, pro-Israel views'
Norway Killer 311.
(photo credit:REUTERS)
Anders Behring Breivik, the Norwegian who killed nearly 100 people in a combined
terror attack Friday that included car bombings in Oslo and a shooting rampage
at an island summer camp, held fiercely anti-Islamic and pro-Israel views,
according to a 1,500 page manifesto he uploaded before his killing spree
Friday.In the 1,500-page tome, which mentions Israel 359 times and
"Jews" 324 times, Breivik lays out his worldview, which includes an extreme,
bizarre and rambling screed of Islamophobia, far-right Zionism and venomous
attacks on Marxism and multi-culturalism.RELATED:Norway police say killer behind 1,500 page
manifestoPeres calls Norway's King; PM: Israel can
empathizeIn one passage, he lashes out
at the Western media, which he accuses of unfairly focusing on the wrongdoing of
Jews."Western Journalists again and again systematically ignore serious
Muslim attacks and rather focus on the Jews," he wrote.Breivik also took
a jab at leftwing Jews."Jews that support multi-culturalism today are as
much of a threat to Israel and Zionism as they are to us," he
continued."So let us fight together with Israel, with our Zionist
brothers against all anti-Zionists, against all cultural
Marxists/multiculturalists."He also stated that Israel is the homeland
for Jews largely due to the persecution suffered by Jews at the hands of
Muslims, saying "if one acknowledges that Islam has always oppressed the Jews,
one accepts that Israel was a necessary refuge for the Jews fleeing not only the
European, but also the Islamic variety of anti- Judaism."The manifesto
also serves as a call-to-arms, of sorts, in which Breivik lays out his reasons
for launching the attack, focusing on what he described as the importance of
nationalism and the growing scourge of Islam in Europe.Entitled "2083 -
A European Declaration of Independence," the document states: "as we all know,
the root of Europe's problems is the lack of cultural self-confidence
[nationalism] ...this irrational fear of nationalistic doctrines is
preventing us from stopping our own national/ cultural suicide as the Islamic
colonization is increasing annually ...You cannot defeat Islamization or
halt/reverse the Islamic colonization of Western Europe without first removing
the political doctrines manifested through multiculturalism/ cultural
Marxism."Breivik did, however, note that he doesn't hate Muslims in any
fashion and that "I have had several Muslim friends over the years, some of
which I still respect."He also expressed his sympathy for the people of
Serbia, and blasted Norway's support of the 1999 NATO-bombing campaign on Serbia
that stopped the expulsion of Kosovar Albanians by Serbian forces.In
addition, he expressed his disgust at his government's awarding of "the Nobel
peace prize to an Islamic terrorist [Arafat] and appeasers of
Islam."Breivik sneers at those who would spare the lives of women, and
in an especially chilling instruction writes, "once you decide to strike, it is
better to kill too many than not enough, or you risk reducing the desired
ideological impact of the strike. Explain what you have done [in an announcement
distributed prior to operation] and make certain that everyone understands that
we, the free peoples of Europe, are going to strike again and again."Click here to follow Ben Hartman on twitter

Profit slips at IHS, but adjusted earnings up; acquires PFC Energy

IHS Inc. posted a 2.9 percent drop in profit for its latest quarter from a year earlier, but the Douglas County-based global business information and analysis provider's adjusted earnings rose.
The company also announced the latest of its many acquisitions (more below).
IHS (NYSE: IHS) -- parent of IHS Global Insight and the IHS Jane's family of defense publications, among a host of other divisions -- posted results Thursday for the three months that ended May 31, which it regards as its second quarter.
Net income for the period came in at $42.89 million, or 65 cents per diluted share, down from $44.19 million, or 66 cents a share, in the same quarter a year earlier.
But absent one-time items, such as restructuring and acquisition charges, adjusted earnings were $1.04 a share, up from 97 cents a year earlier.
Revenue rose to $418.1 million from $387.2 million in the year-ago quarter.
Analysts on average had projected adjusted earnings of $1.03 a share and revenue of $423 million, Thomson Reuters reported.
Revenue for IHS's subscription business grew 9.3 percent, while non-subscription revenue gained 4.3 percent.
Revenue slipped slightly in Europe, Africa and the Middle East, IHS said, but was up sharply in the Americas and the Asia-Pacific area.
"We achieved our second quarter adjusted earnings per share target in spite of difficult global economic headwinds, and our margins continued to expand despite the adverse impact from recent acquisitions and certain discrete items, which has us trending lower in some of our guidance ranges," said Scott Key, IHS president and CEO.
As for outlook for the fiscal year ending Nov. 30, IHS forecasts adjusted earnings of between $4.23 and $4.43 per diluted share and "all-in" revenue of $1.66 billion to $1.73 billion.

6 February 2013
Zimbabweans have expressed shock after seeing the country's central bank governor, Gideon Gono, appearing to give credence to the so-called 'miracle money' prophets, Emmanuel Makandiwa and Eubert Angel, at a press conference in Harare on Tuesday.
Economist John Robertson told SW Radio Africa the Reserve Bank Governor missed the chance to caution the general public against the prosperity gospel prophets. Instead Gono appeared to confirm that 'miracle money' is a reality and his only concern was that such miracle money had to conform to the laws regarding currency. Money being miraculously materialized should come with a paper trail and proper serial numbers.
Social commentator Rejoice Ngwenya said the Gono press conference with this controversial pair is in the same league as the incident of the diesel n'anga, Rotina Mavhunga, who fooled ZANU PF ministers into believing that she could miraculously draw diesel from a rock.
Ngwenya said this shows "Zimbabwe is a land of 'jokers', where you have the head of the country's bank paying attention to such 'frivolous' beliefs.
The two self-styled prophets have been dominating the news and drawing thousands to their churches, claiming they can perform extraordinary miracles, promising wealth and a better life to their followers.
Some worshippers reportedly found cash in their wallets, pockets and bank accounts, while others claimed to have found diamonds and gold during the church service. Some said they experienced equally 'extraordinary miracles' like hair being extended, sudden loss of weight and new teeth.
After the meeting with Makandiwa and Angel at the Reserve Bank offices Gono said: "We, as the central bank, came in to give our views concerning their work. They belong to the spiritual realm, we are charged with ensuring that earthly laws are observed, implemented and monitored."
Previously the banker had described the prophets' claims as "very dangerous" and said they could be breaching international laws governing the printing of money. But in a complete u-turn Gono said he was now "sure that what the two men of God do is not in violation of any rules."
Gono said he could not prove that they had broken any laws, even though there was no explanation as to how the 'miracle money' is being deposited into individuals' bank accounts without following normal banking transactions or regulations.
Some observers have said that the central bank governor should be dealing with facts and not hobnobbing with these prophets, which undermines his credibility.
Robertson said Gono should never have allowed himself to be associated with this activity in any way at all. "The implications now are that many people are clever at defrauding other people and they are going to get away with it.
The prosperity gospel duo in-turn said their "miracles" were based on "restoration of what one would have lost" and "not on creation of money".
Ngwenya said there is a fine line between "religious freedom and religious insanity but then again Zimbabweans have a history of extreme behavior."
The commentator said it is possible that with ZANU PF in the middle of an election campaign it is looking at this huge block of potential voters from the Pentecostal movement, and wanted Gono to do a bit of 'damage control'.
"This to me is just one of those political jokes that is only meant to prove that ZANU PF accommodates these eccentric characters for the purposes of political capital."
Ngwenya believes this 'incites a sense of laziness in Zimbabweans that manna comes from heaven."
He pointed out that it is difficult to say how the prophets have committed a crime since none of the so called beneficiaries have gone to a bank and produced the money that has allegedly been materialized with the help of the prophets.

I used to have faith and admire GG, the Banker, from CBZ to RBZ. Here was a man who could stand up and surpriseMu the whole business community and the country with his knowledge of figures. Now this Apostle GG. is something else. GG used to quote bible verses may he should read again.
The scandal widens, Angel GG joins the team.
so how do they restore a lost $100 with serial numbers if it has for instance been deposited into another account. Do they transfer from the other account, l do not get it.
There is, according to legend, a sucker/parasite that is born everyday, and of course, there are confidence tricksters of the likes of Emmanuel Makandiwa and Engelbert Angel who are too ready to pounce on the gullible black christian fanatics in Zimbabwe. Have these black christian fanatics of Zimbabwe ever wondered why white christians do not involve themselves in such garbage? It is shocking to note just how gullible some black christian fanatics of Zimbabwe are being conned of their hard earned money and wealth by these confidence tricksters. This is another form of enslavement of the black people of this country but this time by fellow black men. In the past it used to be the white man but today it is being practiced by our own brothers and sisters. These guys should be arrested and sent to jail for crimes against humanity. For those who believe in Jesus Christ, what they are doing is referred to as blasphemy for claiming for oneself the attributes and rights of Almighty God. Surely, there is a legitimate claim for their arrest and incarcerated in prison for an indefinite period for lying to our people and above all to God.
3 stooges
I want to be nice to you super mondo for the first time, but what you have said above is irresistible for Chimbwidos Warvets to ignore. You see, if we include you and take away Gideon Gono from this equation, three stooges will still remain. Is it not true, sir?
No if they remove Gideon Gono from this equation, only two stooges will remain. I think you are wrong Chimbwidos Warvets.
How can such a foolish man like Gono continue to remain as a governor of our blessed country Zimbabwe ? You see how stupid he is ,believing in those two thieves chased away from Britain because of their indecorous behaviour. How can a governor of our country be such foolish to the extend of putting a wig on his head?
We already know what this thief Gono has in mind, is flooding the streets with fake U.S dollars to discredit it then propose to bring back the ZIM. dollar which he can print to finance the ZANU COMPAIN.
Greetings Cde Chimbwidos and fellow comrades. Let us not be too quick to condemn Emmanuel Makandiwa and Eubert Angel. Whilst on a recent holiday I stopped off at a small bar situated deep in the countryside of Ireland. The draft Guinness was superb. Late into the night I was the last man standing and I staggered outside for a breath of fresh air. Staring into the distance I saw this dwarf like old man clad in a green coat and a rather comical hat. Being of a curious nature I approached him and realised to my astonishment it was a Leprechaun. He was busy making shoes and he hadn't noticed me approaching. It is a matter of fact that if captured by a human, the Leprechaun has the magical power to grant three wishes in exchange for his release. Therefore I was quick to grab him by his long white beard before he could make good his escape. Knowing Leprechauns store away all their coins in a hidden pot of gold at the end of a rainbow I demanded just one wish: that the next day be sunny with intermittent rain showers, then releasing my grumpy captive I returned to my rented room. Alas and alack the long range meteorological forecast suggests a long wait for the weather required to produce my rainbow with its pot of gold. In the meantime perhaps a visit to Giddy Gono in Zimbabwe for a bridging loan in exchange for my pot of gold would be in order. After all if he believes in Emmanuel and Eubert, he must consider a wish granted by a Leprechaun a cast iron security.
I am beginning to like your sense of humour. I dropped the bible as I was reading your article as I laughed my lungs out. You see, we need to laugh at times other just talking about the farms/estates in Zimbabwe, which after all are owned by others while we own and control nothing.
So at last our powerful , the untouchable ,and the god of Zimbabwean bankers,has been forced to eat humble pie by two timing conmen pausing as Paul and Barnabas.Lets face it the guv is almost begging for mercy from the two annointed ones who see God everyday, exclusively in the comfort of their princely homes.But was the guv forced into it by more powerful forces. Lets face it Mugabe had come guns blazing against modern day prophets only to be warned by his wife that he will be locked out of the bedroom if he is not careful.A few weeks ago the Guv did the same,an honest, professional and procedural thing to do,but instead of going to the police and Financial Services Authority the guv makes peace without even carrying investigations or evidence that these guys can really create wealth.Of course all they preach is sweet bread to their followership,properity,money,money.There is no sorrow no hardship that should experienced.'and these are false doctrines.The first Lady's beliefs should not be imposed on the general populace and it appears the Guv was under duress.
The two "profiteers" were deliberately created by certain sections of the media with the help of vakomana vema dark glasses. Nyaya iripo is that thy have been roped in for the campaign effort.
Check the link below. Gono's words expose the boys. You just need to read between the lines. The miracles are fake says Gono: http://www.newzimbabwe.com/news-10206-Makandiwa,%20Angel,%20Gono%20What%20they%20said/news.aspx
It's common-sensical.Really it is..If God made all creation out of nothing other than His divine nature.His ability to speak things into existence,wud He fail to make material things manifest now?All nature,the mighty oceans and land and all thats in them,the innumerable stars n planets n endless galaxies were spoken into existence..Making money n gold materialise in peoples hands n bank accounts is nothing man.All nature is a display of God Jehovah's majesty…Pray that your eyes be opened..I doubt u see that Zimbabwe is better than the USA..Yes..I am looking @ the future u r looking at how it presently looks like..America is doomed..
Are you a Jehovah's witness or a Mormon? Pick and choose, please.

Maine's Governor Just Used an Anal-Sex Metaphor to Attack His Political Foe
The already heated state-budget fight currently unfolding up in Maine took a turn Thursday when the Republican governor made what sounds to me an awful lot like an anal-rape joke about his Democratic foe. The Bangor Daily News provides the pull-quote that will no doubt have the Pine Tree State and the Internet talking (emphasis added):
Gov. Paul LePage on Thursday said a Democratic lawmaker, Sen. Troy Jackson of Aroostook County, "claims to be for the people but he's the first one to give it to the people without providing Vaseline." Jackson gave the Democratic response to the governor's promised veto of the biennial budget, which was delivered Thursday during a State House rally.
"If I get a little upset with Troy Jackson, who sits up in Aroostook County and does nothing for Maine people, look, this man this year tried to take my pension away, tried to sell the Blaine House, then he realized he didn't own it, that's the kind of guy he is. Let's get beyond that and bring me someone that really wants to talk," LePage said. "People like Troy Jackson, they ought to go back into the woods and cut trees and let someone with a brain come down here and do some good work."
Even if we give LePage the benefit of the doubt, an alternative reading of the Vaseline line would be something like, "He's screwing you and doesn't even have the courtesy to use Vaseline," which I suppose is a little better but still not the type of soundbite you expect to hear from a governor when he has a microphone in his face. Regardless, LePage made it clear he was fully aware that his remarks would likely cause him some trouble. "Good," the governor responded to a reporter who pointed out his comment would offend some people. "It ought to. Because I've been taking it for two years."
For more on the budget fight, head on over to the Daily News, which has you covered.

Port Townsend schools chief wants to bring marine trades into classrooms

"We can bring a maritime theme into the classroom which will allow kids to become closer to the community," said Port Townsend School Superintendent David Engle while addressing the Jefferson County Chamber of Commerce on Monday.
"The entire program will give students something to aspire to and determine how they can contribute to the community in some fashion."
The "maritiming" of the schools is to be accomplished through a partnership with the Northwest Maritime Center whose director, Jake Beattie, has met with Engle several times to discuss curriculum development.
Engle said there are three aspects of education, preparing for college, preparing for a career and learning citizenship.
Schools have made the most progress in the first category although this is not yet where it needs to be.
Engle called career preparation "a dismal failure," as the programs geared toward giving practical knowledge on this topic have fallen victim to budget cuts.
"The lack of citizenship instruction is the most profoundly troubling piece, if you don't have people who are active in their community all bets are off."
The introduction of a maritime slant to instruction can be accomplished incrementally and on all levels, Engle said.
Those interested in biology can center their instruction on marine wildlife while those with a technology talent will have access to the Maritime Center's Pilot House which Engle calls "one of the best simulation stations in the world."
Engle said that "it won't be a problem" for kids who have no interest in maritime issues since they can provide a gateway to other areas of interest.
A student interested in other situations might incorporate what was learned at the pilot house to develop simulations of space or flight.
And even those with no interest in boats may enlighten themselves with the study or maritime tattoos.
Engle called Port Townsend "eclectic" which is a double edged sword.
"It's one thing to be eclectic, in Port Townsend we are eclectic cubed," Engle said.
I don't have a conversation in this community where I don't go 'wow, that's an interesting perspective,' I don't have to wait 24 hours to hear the next viewpoint.
Engle said he has "a high tolerance for disagreement" which makes him open to other viewpoints and ideas.
He said that Port Townsend has its demographic problems, resulting from a relatively high median age of 52 and no plans for attracting and retaining younger people to the region.
Taking advantage of the local maritime identity, which is already in place, will help to accomplish these goals according to Engle.
"We don't have a lot of young people here so our challenge is to turn this into a place where young people want to live and work, and where they can do something with their lives," he said.
Engle said the idea to blend maritime subject matter and education is still in an early stage, a meeting to discuss these options is scheduled for 1:30 p.m. Wednesday at the Maritime Center's upstairs meeting room. 431 Water St.

Electric Independence: Chromeo
Sep 26 2010
Chromeo may be the only Arab/Jewish electrofunk duo on the planet. Let that mixture be a smooth metaphor for their unique sound, a blend of fancy synthesizers, a talk box, old computers, and older funk phrasings, torn from the days when the lords of the disco wore white suits and Jheri curls.
But even if Patrick "P Thug" Gemayel and David "Dave 1" Macklovitch, who met in high school in Montreal, unabashedly worship at the altar of Hall & Oates, they keep one ear to hip hop too, turning knobs on their drum machines the way they turn festivals into disco funk jamz.
But they're not all hot nights and cool suits: until recently, Gemayel put his business school acumen to work as the band's tour manager, and Macklovitch is earning his PhD in French literature from Columbia. Dissertation topic: "Theorizing the Pleasure of Reading in Eighteenth Century France."
But right now, he's all about the pleasure of getting down. In advance of their new album Business Casual, Motherboard visited the groove scientists at home in Montreal to sample their secret synth sauce, and see how it's made.
