This week's syndicated column
I am giving special thanks this year for the hard work of patriots who toil without recompense to expose the many vectors of Islamic subversion currently eroding the already hollowed-out institutions of Western society.
To this end, I will tell a story about a story. It concerns the first Muslim prayer service ever held at the National Cathedral in Washington, D.C. As I wrote last week, this weirdly "invitation-only" service, which took place on Friday, Nov. 14, gathered representatives of Muslim groups with proven links to Hamas and to Hamas' parent group, the Muslim Brotherhood. This means that, however briefly, jihad-linked groups took over the National Cathedral, where presidents and other great Americans have lain in state. These terror links led some media to label the event overall a "Muslim Brotherhood event," or an "Islamist" or "extremist" event. As the...

This week's syndicated column
There are several ways to see the National Cathedral's decision to host Islamic Friday prayers this week.
First, the facts. The service is the brainchild of the Rev. Canon Gina Campbell, the Episcopal cathedral's director of liturgy, and South African Ambassador Ebrahim Rasool, a Muslim, who is delivering the sermon. Invitation-only guests include Masjid Muhammad of The Nation's Mosque, representatives of the All Dulles Area Muslim Society (ADAMS), the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) and the Muslim Public Affairs Council (MPAC).
That's some roster if playing "Spot the Muslim Brotherhood Front" is a hobby. Clearly, it's not the professionals' pursuit. On being quizzed by the Daily Caller, for example, cathedral spokesman Craig Stapert had no idea that two of the invited groups were unindicted co-conspirators...

John Molloy, chairman of the National Vietnam & Gulf War Veterans Coalition, and Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-TX) on Veterans Day 2014
I had the exceedingly great privilege to spend Veterans Day with the patriots of the National Vietnam & Gulf War Veterans Coalition. Among attendees of the annual leadership luncheon blessed by the Rev. Alister Anderson, Col., USA (Ret.), were former POWs Red McDaniel, Mike Benge, and Lawrence J. Stark, Rolling Thunder founder Artie Muller, Gold Star mothers, and a contingent of veterans from the Army of South Vietnam. Special guest speakers included included Rep.

The following excerpt is from a harrowing report at Fox.com about Christians and Yezidis who have fled for their lives to Kurdistan to escape the rampaging Islamic State in Iraq.
It recounts the flight of Faten, a young Christian refugee who used to lived in Qaraqosh in northern Iraq
Then, just three months ago, the Islamic State – commonly called Daesh in Kurdistan – swept into Qaraqosh after decimating Mosul's Christian community.
The invaders offered Qaraqosh's Christians the usual three options: Convert, pay the jizya tax, or get out.
Otherwise, they would face the Islamist's sword.

No better place to reflect: George Washington's study at Mount Vernon, less than 20 miles from the US Capitol
This week's syndicated column
Almost every anti-establishment firebrand is the same. Elected to break the chokehold that Beltway elites have on the republic, they come to Washington with their constituents' concerns foremost. They are eager to heave overboard the dead weight that sinks the balance of powers, and ready to defend the Constitution from all enemies, foreign and domestic.
Then it happens. One taste of the waters of forgetfulness on Capitol Hill and suddenly their goal is something called "incumbency," and their allegiance is to the powers that be -- "the leadership." It hardly matters which party's.
After the earthquake election of 2014, in the wake of a historic mandate against the Obama agenda -- from "executive amnesty"...

This is *not* low sodium--next time, I'll leave the sausages out altogether, and either find canned tomatoes in a more reasonable range, or use fresh--but it is about as low-carb and low-fat as I know how to make it. (I usually only have it on holidays.)Submitted by: ADIPOSEROSE
Goetta is a German-American breakfast food popular in Cincinnati. It is usually served as a side dish (as sausage would be,) but we tend to eat it as a breakfast in its own right. This is my version, which has evolved from a similar recipe I copied from my mom's recipe box years ago. The original called for ground beef and pork (not sausage), less onion, fewer bay leaves, and less lots less pepper. I like it highly seasoned, thus the adjustments.Submitted by: MOM2WILDBOYS

In 1992 Gin Blossoms leaped into hearts, minds, and stereo's all across America. The jangley pop and college rock anthems of "New Miserable Experience" took the charts by storm; songs like "Hey Jealousy," "Allison Road," and "Found Out About You" took them from being what College Music Journal called "the best unsigned band in America" to being the major name on DJ's lips.
In 1995, Gin Blossoms became a household name when they contributed their smash hit "Till I hear It From You" to the soundtrack for Empire Records, a movie timeless in its own right. The record went platinum, but the band called it quits in 1997.
The members of Gin Blossoms toured with various side projects including Wilson and Rhodes' "Gas Giant," and "Roger Clyne And The Peacemakers," but as they say, distance makes the heart grow fonder, and in 2002 the band reformed. As Wilson put it, "we make a noise together that we can't make otherwise." The band, as it happens, had only gotten better with time.

Covering the poor while growing the economy
GIVEN a roomful of people, most people cant tell by looking which ones dont have health insurance. But the emergency-room doctor knows who they are. Theyre the patients who show up when theyre too sick to ignore their medical problem any longer. When they leave with their prescriptions, they probably wont fill them, because they cant afford to.
The legal-aid attorney knows them, too. They are low-wage workers or people who lost their insurance when they lost their jobs. They broke a leg, or developed cancer, or went into heart failure that required hospitalization. Now, theyre seeking relief from constant calls trying to collect on impossibly high bills for the care that saved their lives.
More than 1 million Virginians are uninsuredone in eight citizens of the commonwealth. Virginia now has a chance to bring 400,000 of them into the Medicaid program. The federal government will foot the bill for those newly eligible, at 100 percent for the first three years and no less than 90 percent after that
Who would benefit? All of us.
People whose annual income is within 138 percent of the federal poverty lineabout $15,400 per year for an individual and $32,000 for a family of fourwould be covered. They would have access to care that most take for granted: yearly check-ups, prescriptions, cancer screenings, and medical intervention at an early, treatable stage.
Regular primary care with an emphasis on prevention and healthy lifestyles will help them be more productive employees and more effective parents, at a lower overall cost.
The rest of us would benefit, too. After all, we are already paying for the care of the uninsured. Our premiums are higher because we subsidize what the uninsured cannot pay. Our federal, state, and local taxes also support indigent care.
By extending Medicaid, we would ensure that Virginians federal tax dollars would come back to help Virginias low-income workers and families, instead of paying for expansions in other states.
Virginias economy will benefit, too. After comprehensive study, Virginias Medicaid agency concluded that over a 10-year period, the commonwealth would receive more than $20 billion in federal funding, while spending less than $150 million for the states portion of the expansion.

Acute Follicular Conjunctivitis And Hiv
Here's a taste of what TheBody.com has to offer on this topic:
Get the Facts
LymphomaWhat Is Lymphoma? Lymphoma is a cancer of white blood cells called B-lymphocytes, or B-cells. They multiply rapidly and form tumors. Lymphoma of the brain or spinal cord is called central nervous system (CNS) lymphoma. AIDS-related lymphoma is sometimes called Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (NHL). In 1985, the Centers for Disease Control added NHL to the list of diseases that define AIDS. Hodgkin's Disease, another type of lymphoma, is rare in people...

text: Ted Nugent's Gun Show Gets Silenced Print article Send a Tip by Breitbart News 19 Dec 2012 post a comment Another gun enthusiast show is now gone from the television schedule. The Discovery Channel tells The Washington Times that "Ted Nugent's Gun Crazy" won't return with fresh episodes. The source tells the newspaper that "Gun Crazy" didn't draw big ratings during its broadcasts, but it's hard not to isolate the cancellation from the ongoing fallout from Friday's school shooting in Connecticut. The news comes directly after the channel cancelled "American Guns," a reality show set in a Colorado gun shop. Nugent is an avowed hunter and gun enthusiast as well as a veteran rocker famous for hits like "Cat Scratch Fever" and "Wango Tango."

The push to get proficiency-based education into more New England high schools got a boost this week, when 55 public universities in five states endorsed this hands-on approach to learning. Under proficiency-based systems, students need to continuously show that they're mastering key skills in their subjects throughout their high school careers. Proponents say the stamp of approval from public universities and community colleges will mean a more … Read Full Article →
Most Maine high schools say they need more time to begin awarding diplomas based on proficiency and not seat time or credit hours. Last week, the state gave high schools the option to complete this work by 2020, instead of 2018. A handful, though, don't need any extension. Jay Field reports from the Midcoast on a high school that's been focusing on proficiency-based learning for years, and is now serving as a model for others across the state. … Read Full Article →

Living with Lymphangioleiomyomatosis: A life history project
Supervisors: Dr Murray Fisher and Dr Jo Patching
LAM is a rare, incurable, chronic condition characterised by progressive cystic lung disease affecting almost exclusively women, usually during their childbearing years. Prevalence is 3-5 per million people and can affect women of all races. Progress to respiratory failure can vary from two to more than twenty years. Treatment may involve the use of immunosuppressive medication, oxygen therapy and lung transplantation.
There is a paucity of literature on the experience of living with LAM and on the experience of living with a rare disease. It has been recognised also that objective medical tests do not necessarily reflect patients' feelings about the impact of illness on their ability to carry out activities in their daily lives, and that there is a need to obtain patients' subjective views to improve clinical outcomes and quality of life. This qualitative life history study aims to increase knowledge of women's perceptions of the impact of LAM on their lives, improve understanding of how the rarity of the disease affects the illness experience, and identify needs of women with LAM. In this way the study will inform the clinical decision making of health professionals caring for women with LAM and may improve support for this group of individuals.
The life history method is being used to explore the experience of living with LAM over the life course for women in different contexts, from different cultural backgrounds, and at different stages of the life course and illness trajectory. This method documents LAM patients' narratives of their lives throughout the onset and course of their disease in order to understand the meaning of the illness experience in different social contexts and across time. Data is being obtained from two semi-structured interviews and the medical record of each participant. Analysis, using Rosenthal's (1993) method of narrative analysis, will include the life story as narrated by each participant, construction of the Biographical Account, the objective facts of the illness, and reconstruction of the Life History, in which each woman's experiences will be reconstructed in chronological sequence representing her past perspective. Analysis will take place across cases.

The Bennet Martin Library in Downtown Lincoln is where David Glass goes to catch up on some peaceful reading.
"The wide possibilities, thousands of options here and I have read hundreds of them," said Library Enthusiast David Glass.
He likes the feel of a book in his hand, but he also takes advantage of free computer labs which are available at any of the 9 Lincoln City Libraries.
"They're getting internet access that way, for a lot of people this is their only access to that kind of service," said Library Director Pat Leach.
With advancements in technology and the ways in which we consume information, libraries have adapted the way they provide these services to people who are on the move.
"A lot of people are reading books off of electronic devices, the library allows people to download E-Books, free of charge," said Leach.
In a city wide campaign to show what today's libraries have to offer, Lincoln City Libraries want to stress they still play an important role in the community.
"They're places where the community brings together their ideas, an intellectual playground of the community," said Brendan Evans.

PUNTA GORDA, Fla. - Detectives from the Economic Crimes Unit are requesting assistance in identifying a man who used a fraudulent credit card to purchase several thousand dollars' worth of merchandise in Lee County.
On May 22, detectives arrested Nathan Garced, 33, of 1476 Kenesaw Street in Port Charlotte, on multiple charges, including Possession of Credit Card Making Equipment and Criminal Use of Personal Identification. Garced is still being held at the Charlotte County Jail on a $16,500 total bond.
At the time of the Garced's arrest in May, detectives found the bank information from someone else encoded on a credit card in Garced's name. During the investigation, detectives learned that the same victim's credit card information had been similarly encoded on cards used by a Black male to make several thousand dollars' worth of purchases in Lee County.
Detectives in both Lee and Charlotte are attempting to identify the male who was driving a black vehicle, possibly a Chrysler 500. Anyone with information that could assist with identifying this man is asked to please call either the Charlotte County Sheriff's Office at (941) 639-2101, the Lee County Sheriff's Office at (239) 477-1000 or Crime Stoppers at 800-780-TIPS (8477).

In America after the Second Civil War, the Pro-Choice and Pro-Life armies came to an agreement: The Bill of Life states that human life may not be touched from the moment of conception until a child reaches the age of thirteen. Between the ages of thirteen and eighteen, however, a parent may choose to retroactively get rid of a child through a process called "unwinding." Unwinding ensures that the child's life doesn�t �technically� end by transplanting all the organs in the child's body to various recipients. Now a common and accepted practice in society, troublesome or unwanted teens are able to easily be unwound.
With breathtaking suspense, this book follows three teens who all become runaway Unwinds: Connor, a rebel whose parents have ordered his unwinding; Risa, a ward of the state who is to be unwound due to cost-cutting; and Lev, his parents' tenth child whose unwinding has been planned since birth as a religious tithing. As their paths intersect and lives hang in the balance, Shusterman examines serious moral issues in a way that will keep readers turning the pages to see if Connor, Risa, and Lev avoid meeting their untimely ends.

This Day in Geek History -- Star Trek Fans Name Space Shuttle Enterprise
In honor of AOL's Geek Awards on Aug. 18, we've declared it Geek History Month. Embrace your roots, as we revisit some important events in technology, gaming, sci-fi and more.
The construction of Space Shuttle Enterprise is probably one of the greatest achievements accomplished in the name of geekdom. Not only was the orbiter the first re-usable space shuttle, a rocket type which has since been used for dozens of space missions, the way the ship was named showed the entire world that if enough geeks unite they can change history.
As we celebrate 33 years since the SS Enterprise took its first flight, let's explore at exactly how things went down.
Soon after the Apollo mission successfully proved the moon was not made out of cheese, the U.S. government realized that space flight was going to become a lot more common, especially if you wanted a bunch of satellites and an International Space Station. This was awesome for scientists and rocket manufacturers, but it would mean that things would get very expensive, very fast. A few tons of fuel, thousands of dollars worth of special equipment and months of training -- before you know it your budget has a huge rocket-shaped sinkhole.
Inspired by this idea, NASA launched the Space Shuttle Program, completing the first ship on Sept. 17, 1976. The first space shuttle was supposed to be named "Constitution." While we agree that the founding document of the United States is a monumental achievement, it's simply not the right thing to name a spaceship.
And we weren't the only ones to think so; in fact about 200,000 people agreed with us. That's how many wrote directly to president Gerald Ford demanding that NASA change the name of the space ship to "Enterprise."
In the "Star Trek" series, all ships were named after famous space shuttles of the past. So, in a paradoxical way, by naming a real-life shuttle after the Star Trek ship, NASA validated its plot line by providing an explanation for where the Enterprise name came from. If that makes perfect sense to you, congratulations, you're a true Star Trek fan.
Ironically enough, the Space Shuttle Enterprise never actually flew "where no man has gone before." It never even left the Earth's orbit. Since it was the first shuttle in the program, it was meant more as a prototype, a testing unit for Space Shuttle Columbia, which followed it a few years later.
Originally, NASA wanted to retrofit Enterprise and make it space-ready, but engineers abandoned the plan when they realized that building a new ship, Challenger, would end up being cheaper. And so the fate of the Enterprise was sealed after only 16 tests, including only five flights, the first one of which took place on August 12, 1977.
Once the tests were complete, the shuttle was donated to the Smithsonian institute where Star Trek fans regularly visit it. Pictures and footage of the ship were included in later "Star Trek" episodes, and several cast members can be seen in photos outside the real Enterprise.
And this was all possible because Star Trek fans are seriously dedicated people.

Aside from the use of the childish term Trekkies, not a bad article. Prefered term and more mature is Trekkers. Only thing that would have made this better would have been to actually see Enterprise in space on some real shuttle missions.

Part of the Kithomer accord was the recognition that "Trekker" and "Trekkie" are interchangeable phrases used in common parlance to describe sexless geeks. Not really, but it is time to let go and let flow, brother. Trekkies get laid, Trekkers never do.
Thursday 12 August
By William
The term "Trekkies" is the correct term for those childish adults such as yourself who want to be known by a certain term just because you watch Star Trek. To use a term such as "Trekker" is to imply that you are actually achieving something. Grow up already! Watching a television show is not an accomplishment! What is also certain is that your parents would prefer you move out of their basement already!

By Dr. J
I thought "Trekkies" were fans of the original series, while "Trekkers" like me were fans of The Next Generation... and beyond.
BTW, Why is everyone but Captain Kirk in the picture?

I went to the 'Star Trek Convention' at the Americana Hotel in NYC in 1974 with my friends. It was a blast. I was barely a teenager, and we were proud to be known as 'Trekkies.' It was an exciting time, and I grew up fairly normal, moving out of my parents basement right after college. Never went for 'Next Gen' or any other 'sequel' show. Just didn't seem the same.

I don't mind being called a "Trekkie", but I DO mind the term "geek"! The Star Trek series is anything by "geeky", in fact, it often inspires the mind. Far better stuff is shown on those series than these "real life" shows! Not just entertaining, but also thought processing stuff. The newer series became really what Star Trek was supposed to be like!
"Geeky" stuff to me is things like South Park and Spongebob~

Sorry but WRONG!! Before anyone argues, yest I know on Picards Enterptise in the Next Generation the Shuttle Enterprise is depicted, as it is on Archers sEnterprise on Enterprise. But on the original series, which ran from 1966-69. There is nothing about the Shuttle Enterprise, or even the Shuttle program.

If the first shuttle, the Enterprise, was built in 1976, it would have been IMPOSSIBLE for there to be any mention of the shuttle program in the original Star Trek series because there was no shuttle program in 1966!!!!
Friday 13 August
By James
Yeah, you are right that the Shuttle Enterprise or the program was not mentioned in the original series (66-69.) But then NASA was in the heighth of the race to the moon and the Apollo space program. Not many knew of the Shuttle program, and certainly it would not have been allowed to be mentioned on a television program.

I agree with you wholeheartedly. On December 31, 1979 -- as I sat watching a '70s retrospective just before midnight -- I just KNEW that a special, hopeful era was coming to an end. I had turned 14 two months earlier, and with each passing year thereafter, I could feel my hopes and aspirations dying.

actually they didn't build a "new" shuttle when they built challenger.
Challenger was a structural test airframe (STA-099) it was later decided to upgrade her to flight status rather than upgrading the enterprise that was built very differently than the columbia was

Posted Tuesday, January 29, 2013 --- 10:20 a.m.
MADISON, Wis. (AP) -- Reed Hall can drop `interim' from his chief executive title at the Wisconsin Economic Development Corp.
Gov. Scott Walker Tuesday named Reed as CEO of the public-private agency created to promote economic development in the state. Hall has served as interim CEO and secretary of the organization since November. Before that, Hall was executive director of the Marshfield Clinic from 2000 to 2010 and was its general counsel for 24 years.
A pair of independent reviews of WEDC's operations identified a number of problems and issued a series of recommendations, including upgrading computer software and hiring more people to better track loans and other financial transactions.
Reed says that as interim CEO and secretary he's "fully aware of the challenges and opportunities" that are ahead.

BBT directors have made a balanced decision that preserves purity of the Sirla Prabhupada's books while providing means to better understand perceived conterversial statement in the context they were made.
Statement by the BBT
By the BBT trustees
The ISKCON Governing Body Commission has recommended to the BBT trustees that we insert endnotes or appendices into Srila Prabhupada's books to explain statements Srila Prabhupada makes in Srimad-Bhagavatam 4.25.41, 4.25.42, and 4.26.26 concerning a woman's attitude towards the aggressive advances of a man and towards a man who is "expert at rape." The GBC has also recommended that the endnotes or appendices explain "other such statements."
The BBT directors, at their annual meeting in June of 2008, considered these recommendations and decided to turn them down.
The directors have in fact discussed the relevant issues at length during several BBT meetings over the past few years. We have listened to opinions from concerned devotees and nondevotees. And additionally we have sought and received written advice on these issues from a selection of senior devotees, both male and female.
The directors have considered several suggested approaches to the issues, including deleting or revising the controversial passages, adding footnotes, adding appendices, publishing free-standing explanatory inserts, publishing separate books of commentary, and doing nothing at all.
As a result of our deliberations, we decided that the best approach would be to set up a site on the web where readers can go to get a better understanding of statements from Srila Prabhupada's books that may be controversial, contrary to prevailing social norms, or otherwise difficult to comprehend or digest.
As we reprint Srila Prabhupada's books, we plan to include on the copyright page a brief note directing readers to that site for guidance on such matters. This web site was already in development long before the meeting at which the GBC passed their resolution.
Addressing these issues on a website offers the following advantages, among others:
* It allows us to include explanations from several different viewpoints, not just one.
* It gives the authors space to write at whatever length they feel they need.
* It keeps Srila Prabhupada's books free from editorial intrusions.
* It avoids needlessly highlighting statements that many readers may not find disturbing.
* It spares us from having to publish "official explanations" for statements about which even Srila Prabhupada's leading disciples and followers have divided opinions.
* It saves us from the danger of publishing in Srila Prabhupada's books an explanation with which he himself might disagree.
* It keeps us from embarking on the treacherous path of "explaining" more and more of Srila Prabhupada's controversial or potentially controversial statements.
We foresee that Srila Prabhupada's followers will eventually write many books of commentary to directly explain and elaborate upon the teachings found in his books, and we welcome this. We see the website as an initial step in that direction.
In this letter we also wish to respond to the specifics of the GBC's recommendation.
The GBC's resolution gives three reasons for their recommendation. Two are these:
* "Some of Srila Prabhupada's books contain sentences [like those cited] which when taken in isolation may be considered derogatory to and offensive against women."
* "Some people who read such statements may consider them to be derogatory or offensive, may misunderstand what Srila Prabhupada actually means, and may not want to further read those books, notwithstanding the many other beneficial statements in them."
Regarding these two reasons, we recognize that Srila Prabhupada's books sometimes make statements that some readers may consider offensive—offensive to women, to science and scientists, to democratic ideals, to other Gaudiya Vaisnavas, to scholarship and scholars, to homosexuals, to pacifists, humanitarians and philanthropists, to people of various nations or races, to followers of various spiritual or supposedly spiritual paths, to individuals widely revered as saints or incarnations of God, and much more. And we recognize that such statements may discourage some readers from reading further.
Nonetheless, we think that adding notes or appendices to explain what Srila Prabhupada intended would be unwise, and potentially disastrous, especially if the purpose of the explanation were to soften the impact of Srila Prabhupada's words, to explain that he "didn't really mean" what he appears to have said—that is, not just to explain but to "explain away."
The GBC's remaining reason is this: "Some ISKCON devotees may have used these statements out of context as an excuse to offend, neglect and abuse women."
We agree that this is true. But we believe that providing guidance and instruction on such matters is the responsibility of the GBC and ISKCON's leaders, not the BBT or its editors. And we believe that Srila Prabhupada's books are the wrong place for his followers to insert corrective guidance on morals, ethics, or proper attitudes and behavior. We think that annotating Srila Prabhupada's books to keep ISKCON devotees from going off track is simply a bad idea.
We are concerned, also, that the GBC has asked us to insert endnotes or appendices to explain not only the statements they quoted but also "other such statements as determined by the BBT." That is not a road we think it wise for us to set off on. Once we get started, where does it end?
In conclusion: We do not intend to add anything to Srila Prabhupada's books, or subtract anything, or change anything Srila Prabhupada says, to make his controversial or potentially controversial statements more acceptable to readers or less vulnerable to misuse by ISKCON devotees. We believe that this would be unwise, contrary to our prescribed duties, and potentially disastrous. We also strongly urge whoever our successors may be to preserve Srila Prabhupada's books intact and reject all proposals, however well intentioned, for softening the impact of his words.

In respect of the quote that "some ISKCON devotees may have used these statements out of context as an excuse to offend, neglect and abuse women." If BBTs agrees that this is true and all believe that providing guidance and instruction on such matters is the responsibility of the GBC and ISKCON's leaders, can we discuss a clear action plan on how to implement or at least discuss morality of misuse of Prabhupadas words? I personally think that this discussion is long overdue and was overshadowed by annotate vs webnotate debate. Is there a forum where misuse of Prabhupadas words is discussed?
▲ 0 ▼Suresh das ( User Karma: 0 ) says:
One of my favorite quotes from Srila Prabhupada is – "no person within this material world is an honored guest". Often times it is difficult to hear the philosophy of the Bhagavat. Every person will find something in the Srimad Bhagavatam, or other Vedic literatures that is sure to hit a sore spot. After all, unless we are pure devotees, each of us is probably out of sync with the laws of God. But, if you are a true seeker, wouldn't you rather hear the truth, along with being presented with a plan of action for rectifying oneself, than to be lied to and cheated?

The Painter From Shanghai, published in 2008, is Jennifer Cody Epstein's debut novel. It is a fictionalized biography of the Real Life Chinese painter Pan Yuliang. Orphaned at a young age, she was taken in by her uncle who, in order to sustain his opium habit, sold her into prostitution at age 13.After a a few years as a teenage prostitute, she was rescued from a predictably grim fate by a city official named Pan Zanhua who bought her from her madam and took her up as a concubine. She signed up for arts classes in Shanghai, and eventually developed enough talent to start out as a painter. However, she courted scandal by painting nudes, something even more offensive in interwar China than in Europe; with nobody volunteering to model for her, she would sneak in the public baths to draw sketches of women bathers, and eventually settled for nude self-portraits.She won a coveted prize that enabled her to study further in Paris, then Rome, and she won several awards in both cities. Returning to China after several years, she found herself targeted by the Blue Shirts, a right-wing paramilitary organization with ties to the Nationalist regime. She left again for good just before the beginning of the Second Sino-Japanese War and lived out her days in France.

The city of Charlottesville wants drivers to slow down and they're hoping an extra $200.00 speeding fine will get them to do that.
Signs are posted on three local roads warning drivers they face a steep fine if caught speeding.
City council passed that new ordinance in August and police began enforcing the law this week.
It applies to Old Lynchburg Road, Avon Street and Altavista Avenue.
"The three streets are commuter type streets with a lot of traffic and they are also neighborhood streets and we received numerous complaints from each of these streets about the speed in that neighborhood," said Charlottesville police officer Faron Ocheltree.
Those extra fees are on top of the speeding ticket fine and could potentially include the Commonwealth's steep abusive driver penalties as well.

November 26, 2014
The Iowa Supreme Court ruled Friday that police officers can legally stop any vehicle that has a frame covering the county name on its license plate.
The court ruled 5-2 that obscuring the county violates a law that requires motorists to "permit full view of all numerals and letters" on the plate.
The decision backs undercover Davenport officers who used the issue to justify stopping a man who was under surveillance for suspected drug dealing.
Dissenting Justice Brent Appel said the ruling is a warning to thousands of motorists who have frames promoting sports teams and auto dealers. He said they need to check whether the frame covers the county name because police now "may stop the vehicle anywhere and at any time" without any sign of other criminal wrongdoing.

By Bob Egelko San Francisco Chronicle
SAN FRANCISCO — Thirty-four veteran San Francisco police officers accused their department in a lawsuit Monday of passing them over for promotion to inspector because of their ages.
The officers, who have been on a waiting list since they passed an inspector's exam in 1998, were stymied by "unchecked age bias that pervades the culture of the department," their lawyers said in papers filed in U.S. District Court in San Francisco.
Instead of promoting longtime officers to a position that offers more responsibilities and higher pay, plaintiffs' lawyers said, the Police Department began to assign some of its sergeants last year to inspectors' jobs at its investigations bureau. The sergeants are younger and less qualified and have never taken an inspector's exam, the suit said.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
A synecdoche (/sɪˈnɛkdəkiː/, si-NEK-də-kee; from Greek synekdoche (συνεκδοχή), meaning "simultaneous understanding") is a figure of speech[1][2] in which a term for a part of something refers to the whole of something, or vice versa.[3][4] An example is referring to workers as hired hands.[5][6]
Synecdoche is a rhetorical trope and a type of figurative speech[7] similar to metonymy—a figure of speech in which a term that denotes one thing is used to refer to a related thing.[1] Indeed, synecdoche is sometimes considered a subclass of metonymy. It is more distantly related to other figures of speech, such as metaphor.[8]
More rigorously, metonymy and synecdoche can be considered sub-species of metaphor, intending metaphor as a type of conceptual substitution (as Quintilian does in Institutio oratoria Book VIII). In Lanham's Handlist of Rhetorical Terms,[9] the three terms have somewhat restrictive definitions, arguably in tune with a certain interpretation of their etymologies from Greek:
The word "synecdoche" is derived from the Greek word συνεκδοχή = "together-out-accepting", from the prepositions συν- + εκ- and the verb δέχομαι (= "I accept"), originally meaning accepting a part as responsible for the whole, or vice versa.
Synecdoche is often used as a type of personification, by attaching a human aspect to a non-human thing. This is used in reference to political relations, including "having a footing," used to mean a country or organization is in a position to act, or "the wrong hands," to describe opposing groups, usually in the context of military power.[10]
Synecdoche can be used to emphasize an important aspect of a fictional character;[1] for example, the X-Files character the Smoking Man. Sonnets and other forms of love poetry frequently use synecdoches to characterize the beloved in terms of individual body parts rather than a coherent whole. This practice is especially common in the Petrarchan sonnet, where the idealised beloved is often described part by part, from head to toe.
It is also popular in advertising. Since synecdoche uses a part to represent a whole, its use requires the audience to make associations and "fill in the gaps," engaging with the ad by thinking about the product.[11] Moreover, catching the attention of an audience with advertising is often referred to by advertisers as "getting eyeballs," another synecdoche.[12] Synecdoche is very common in spoken English, especially in reference to sports. The names of cities are used as shorthand for their sports teams to describe events and their outcomes, such as "Denver won Monday's game," when specifically a sports team was victorious.[12]
Kenneth Burke declared that in rhetoric the four master tropes, or figures of speech, are metaphor, metonymy, synecdoche, and irony. Burke's primary concern with these four master tropes is not simply their figurative usage, but with their role in the discovery and description of the truth.[13]
He defined synecdoche as "… part of the whole, whole for the part, container for the contained, sign for the thing signified, material for the thing made…cause for the effect, effect for the cause, genus for the species, species for the genus…".[14] Burke's definition provides examples of relationships of convertibility. In addition, Burke suggests that synecdoche patterns can include reversible pairs such as disease-cure.[15]
Burke proclaimed the noblest synecdoche is found in the description of microcosm and macrocosm, "since microcosm is related to macrocosm as part to the whole, and either the whole can represent the part or the part can represent the whole."[15]
Burke also suggested that the word synecdoche can be substituted for the word representation.[13] For example, Burke presented synecdoche in a political realm. In some forms of government one is elected from a social body to represent the entirety of that specific social body. Therefore, this form of government displays a synecdochic relationship since it includes a form of representation, i.e. a part of the whole.
|This section may contain excessive, poor, or irrelevant examples. (May 2014)
In Wordsworth's "We Are Seven", the speaker says, "Your limbs they are alive" (l. 34). "Limbs" represent the entire body, so the narrator is trying to explain to the little girl that she is alive and breathing, unlike her two dead siblings.[16]
In Coleridge's "Frost at Midnight", the speaker says "…or the redbreast sit and sing/ Betwixt the tufts of snow…" (l. 67-8). This phrase symbolizes the coming of spring, as robins are referred to as harbingers of spring.[16]
