The Guardian and the Governor
Posted by Sen on July 30, 2013
Someone asked a question in the comments to this blog, which is so important I have decided to answer in a new posting. He asks whether a government leader [in Israel] who enrolled in the Bahai community would have had temporal authority over the Guardian, had the line of guardians continued, or would the governor have had to defer to the authority of the Guardian, as the head of the Bahai community?
The first part of the answer is, that a Bahai in a position of temporal authority can never be faced with that dilemma, since the scope of deliberations throughout the Bahai administration (the Administrative Order) is limited to spiritual matters (which includes administering the practical affairs of the Bahai community, which is a vehicle for the spirit). Abdu'l-Baha writes:
The signature of that meeting should be the Spiritual Gathering (House of Spirituality) and the wisdom therein is that hereafter the government should not infer from the term "House of Justice" that a court is signified, that it is connected with political affairs, or that at any time it will interfere with governmental affairs.
Hereafter, enemies will be many. They would use this subject as a cause for disturbing the mind of the government and confusing the thoughts of the public. The intention was to make known that by the term Spiritual Gathering (House of Spirituality), that Gathering has not the least connection with material matters, and that its whole aim and consultation is confined to matters connected with spiritual affairs.
(Tablets of Abdu'l-Baha v. 1, p. 5)
I have put some similar quotations in Note 1, which is the first comment on this posting. Since the Bahai institutions cannot discuss government affairs, they obviously cannot make political decisions and issue instructions to governors. The other side of the coin is to ask whether a Bahai who holds a government office can issue instructions to the Bahai institutions. The answer is clearly yes: the Guardian and the Bahais generally are required to obey the government, except in a specific case where the government is claiming authority over their faith and conscience:
In matters, however, that vitally affect the integrity and honor of the Faith of Baha'u'llah, and are tantamount to a recantation of their faith and repudiation of their innermost belief, they [the Bahais] are convinced, and are unhesitatingly prepared to vindicate by their life-blood the sincerity of their conviction, that no power on earth, … can ever succeed in extorting from them a word or deed that might tend to stifle the voice of their conscience or tarnish the purity of their faith.
(Shoghi Effendi, Baha'i Administration, p. 162)
Before getting to the specific question about the relationship between a Guardian and a Bahai Governor – or King, President or Prime Minister – I would like to point out that Baha'u'llah and Abdu'l-Baha do not subscribe to the idea that the best government is government by the best (i.e., the best person or class of people). That tradition of political philosophy goes back at least to Plato: it supposes that the quality of rule depends on the virtue of the ruler, in the specific sense of having the virtues necessary to rule. The Velayat-e faqih theory underlying the current Iranian regime is a striking example of this thinking. Baha'u'llah and Abdu'l-Baha however put their faith not in the virtue of the ruler, but in the use of reason in a process of participation and consultation, within the framework of basic laws. This applies both to their theory of civil government and to the 'church government,' the Bahai Administrative Order, which they created. The Bahai Administrative Order is a constitutional system, the 'framework of basic laws' is what Bahais call the lesser covenant, which sets out the authority and limits of each element. There are several examples that show that the authority of the Guardian is not absolute even within the Administrative Order, which also gives us a perspective on how a Bahai Guardian might relate to a Bahai Governor.
+ The first is the provision that the Guardian's choice of a successor has to be approved, or declined, by a body of nine Hands of the Cause in a secret ballot. This is specified in Abdu'l-Baha's Will and Testament. I've discussed it and given quotes and sources on this blog, in "No counterfeits."
It is important for Bahais today to know about this requirement, because it gives us a decisive way of refuting the Remeyite claims to a continuing guardianship. But for our present purposes, the point is that Abdu'l-Baha specifically allows the Hands of the Cause to dissent from the Guardian's nomination of a successor, but does not allow them to dissent on any other matter. The Bahai Administrative Order is a constitutional, procedural order, not an autocracy.
+ The second is the provision allowing the House of Justice to maintain any of its enactments in the face of an objection from the Guardian. I've also discussed this on this blog, in "He cannot override …". Again, it shows that the principle underlying the Administrative Order is that of constitutional government. In this case the authority of the Universal House of Justice to override the Guardian's objection is not limited to one particular kind of decision, it is the logical expression of the separation of the legislative or administrative sphere of the House of Justice from the doctrinal and interpretive sphere of the Guardian. The separation of these two spheres is outlined by the Guardian in The World Order of Baha'u'llah p. 150.
+ The third, in the same passage, is the stipulation that the Guardian "cannot legislate except in his capacity as member of the Universal House of Justice."
+ The fourth is another limitation of the Guardian's authority, in the same passage, which states: "He is debarred from laying down independently the constitution that must govern the organized activities of his fellow-members, and from exercising his influence in a manner that would encroach upon the liberty of those whose sacred right is to elect the body of his collaborators."
That is, the Guardian is debarred from influencing the delegates – who are of course Bahais – who elect the Universal House of Justice. As Bahais, they must obey the Guardian (as must the Hands, in my first example), but as delegates they have a specific responsibility which they may not surrender, and which the Guardian may not usurp.
+ A similar example, but limiting the Universal House of Justice rather than the Guardianship, is the stipulation in the 'Eighth Ishraq' that "acts of worship" must be observed according to that which God hath revealed in His Book. This prevents the Universal House of Justice adding to what the Bahai Writings say about acts of worship, such as prayer, fasting and pilgrimage. It gives the individual freedom to respond to the texts in worship as he or she is moved, and it gives the same freedom to groups in collective worship, which is to say, in the Mashriqu'l-Adhkar. The Universal House of Justice as legislature cannot further define what is permissible or required in the Mashriqu'l-Adhkar, although the local and national Assemblies as owners and custodians of Houses of Worship built with community funds may do so, not as legislatures but as custodians of the building.
So far, we have established that the Bahai Administrative Order is charged only with spiritual matters, and that it is a constitutional system, not a system of absolute rule, and that within this system, there are examples of Bahais who have a specific task in which they must obey their own consciences and the scriptural mandate of their role, not the instructions of the Guardian. Rather than supposing a priori that a Bahai Governor would have to obey a Bahai Guardian, we can assume that the relationship will be a constitutional one, and look for the rules that govern it.
The relationship between the Guardian and the Governor is a specific example of a more general type. We can begin with the relationship between the Manifestations of God and the rulers of human society, between Christ and Caesar. Was Caesar (if he had been a Christian) bound to obey Christ? Was the Shah, if he had been a Babi, bound to hand over his throne to the Bab, or if he had been a Baha'i, to Baha'u'llah?
We can answer two of those question in one, by hearing Baha'u'llah quoting Christ:
The sovereigns of the earth have been and are the manifestations of the power, the grandeur and the majesty of God. … He Who is the Spirit (Jesus) … was asked: "O Spirit of God! Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar or not?" And He made reply: "Yea, render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's and to God the things that are God's." He forbade it not. These two sayings are, in the estimation of men of insight, one and the same, for if that which belonged to Caesar had not come from God, He would have forbidden [obedience to Caesar]. (Epistle to the Son of the Wolf, p. 89)
If Caesar's authority comes from God, God gives a mandate for temporal government, as we can see again here:
… your Lord hath committed the world and the cities thereof to the care of the kings of the earth, and made them the emblems of His own power, by virtue of the sovereignty He hath chosen to bestow upon them. He hath refused to reserve for Himself any share whatever of this world's dominion. … The things He hath reserved for Himself are the cities of men's hearts, that He may cleanse them from all earthly defilements, and enable them to draw nigh unto the hallowed Spot which the hands of the infidel can never profane.
(Gleanings from the Writings of Baha'u'llah, 304)
And if God has given a mandate for temporal government, then Caesar is not required, or even permitted, to hand that authority to Christ, just as Christ is not allowed to assume it (see Luke 4: 5-8). And our support for the temporal government (which in a democracy entails, participation in its processes) is a religious duty as well as a civil and moral duty.
We could also look at the second part of the Kitab-e Iqan, which is devoted to the question of why the sovereignty of the Qa'im is not expressed as temporal power. But the above suffices to show that the sovereignty of the Manifestation is a spiritual, not temporal power, and does not give them "any share whatever of this world's dominion," or diminish in any way the mandate of "them that are in authority."
Once again, we can see this is a constitutional system, since two different centres of authority – the temporal and the religious – are given a mandate, in two different spheres, and there is a law, a very deep law written into the nature of things and expressed in various ways throughout the history of religions, that forbids either of these powers infringing on the authority of the other. This theory is worked out in much more detail by Abdu'l-Baha, in his Sermon on the Art of Governance. [The translation has since been retitled The Art of Governance]. It's a long work, and I will quote only the "thesis" which Abdu'l-Baha sets out to prove:
…human society requires the training and cultivation of a true master, …one who binds and restrains, prohibits and encourages, … Now this prohibition and prevention, rules and restraints, leading and impelling, is divided into two types. The first protector and restrainer is the power of governance that is related to the physical world, … The second type of educator and governor of the human world is sacred and spiritual power: the heavenly Books that have been sent down, the prophets of God, and spiritual souls and devout religious leaders. For those in whom revelation descends and divine inspiration arises are the educators of hearts and minds, the correctors of morals. they beautify conduct and encourage the faithful. That is, these holy souls are like spiritual powers.
His argument in essence is that there is a divine constitutional law, which applies at all times and places, under which temporal rule and spiritual leadership are strictly separated, and complement one another. The Art of Governance is also a very beautiful work, which I recommend to anyone who seeks to understand Abdu'l-Baha's thought (my provisional translation is online here).
Obviously neither the Guardian nor the Universal House of Justice could claim a worldly sovereignty which Baha'u'llah – and Christ – had renounced. But is there anything in the writings that specifically says how the Guardian would relate to a Bahai governor? I think, there is. The Guardianship is one of the two pillars that make up the Bahai Administrative Order, and there are references – and significant silences – about the relationship between the Administrative Order and temporal government. The most striking reference is in Shoghi Effendi's letter The golden age of the cause of Baha'u'llah, dated March 21, 1932:
… they [the Bahais] will, unhesitatingly, subordinate the operation of such laws and the application of such principles to the requirements and legal enactments of their respective governments. Theirs is not the purpose, … to allow the machinery of their administration to supersede the government of their respective countries.
A letter written on behalf of the Guardian in October 1951 supports this:
The Administrative Order is not a governmental or civic body, it is to regulate and guide the internal affairs of the Baha'i community; consequently it works, according to its own procedure, best suited to its needs. (Shoghi Effendi, Messages to Canada, 276)
The "significant silences" are the absence of the Administrative Order in the numerous passages in the Writings which refer to the roles and duties of rulers, regarding:
+ a future meeting through which they should agree on a peace pact,
+ the election and role of the World tribunal,
+ and the institutions of the world commonwealth of nations.
If we turn from the Writings to history, there is one example of the relation between the authority of the Guardian and the temporal authority of a believer: Shoghi Effendi and Queen Marie of Romania. However since her authority was limited both by a constitutional role and geography, it is not surprising that there is no sign of Shoghi Effendi submitting to her authority. The reverse is perhaps significant: he does not claim or imply any authority over her, in her role as a monarch. The same may be said of the late Malietoa Tanumafili II, and the Universal House of Justice and National Spiritual Assembly of Samoa. There was a relationship of mutual respect in which each recognized the role of the other, in their complementary spheres of authority. Another example is the 1987 concordat between the Bahai World Center and the state of Israel: an international agreement carrying forward the recognition that had been obtained by Shoghi Effendi under the British Mandate and in the early years of the creation of the State of Israel. The concordat defines the relationship of the Baha'í World Center with the state.
By now it should be clear what the relationship would have been, had a Bahai become governor of Haifa or of Palestine during the time of Shoghi Effendi: the Guardian would have treated the governor with respect, and vice versa, for each of them had a job to do. The story of Colonel Stanton, the Military Governor of Haifa under British occupation, coming to ask the advice of Abdu'l-Baha is retold on this blog, in a comment to Abdu'l-Baha's knighthood. Naturally, Governor Stanton, was not a Bahai, but the original question could be rephrased as follows: "would it have made any difference, if he had been a Bahai? Would Abdu'l-Baha have treated him and the office he represented with any less respect? The answer, for those who have immersed themselves in Abdul-Baha's writings and in the stories of his life is obvious: no. It would have made no difference at all.
That particular story also points to another feature of the relationship between the religious leaders and the temporal rulers: religious communities represent a source of wisdom and social activism, and the rulers can profitably draw on both. In this case, Colonel Stanton had a problem, he was unfamiliar with the local communities and customs, and Palestine had a problem of famine, underdevelopment and poverty. So the Governor came to Abdu'l-Baha for advice and help. And Abdu'l-Baha, with the Mufti of Haifa and other religious leaders, did help. The cooperation of the state with religious institutions and communities, and vice versa, is beneficial because they have common goals in terms of "The progress of the world, the development of nations, the tranquillity of peoples, and the peace of all who dwell on earth…" (Tablets of Baha'u'llah, p. 129-130)
The remaining question is, why does such a hypothetical question matter today, since the line of the Guardians ended with Shoghi Effendi? It matters because the real question is, can Bahais be trusted in public life? It is in fact the same question that was asked of Roman Catholics in the United States, when Kennedy first ran for President. If a Bahai is elected to the school board, is he or she bound to do what the Local or National Spiritual Assembly tells them to do? Can Bahais be loyal citizens of their countries, or is their obedience given first to their own institutions? We – the Bahais in general – need to be sufficiently deepened in the principles to be able to demonstrate by reference to the scriptures that no Bahai institution could possibly give a Bahai in a position of temporal authority (and this includes business leadership) any suggestions regarding that temporal authority, because "that Gathering has not the least connection with material matters, and that its whole aim and consultation is confined to matters connected with spiritual affairs." And we need to demonstrate by our deeds, to a suspicious public, that in whatever role we may find ourselves in public life, we will in fact "unhesitatingly subordinate" our laws and principles to the "requirements and legal enactments" of governments, and will consider ourselves the servants of people, not the agents of the particular interests of the Bahai community. The first step to obtaining that degree of clarity among the deepened believers is to put behind us the rhetoric of deliberate vagueness on the issue. It is both harmful for the community, and a betrayal of the founding figures who have gone to such lengths to explain the principles, for Bahais to suggest that the Bahai scriptures are not clear on the principles of the relationship between church and state, and that everything will have to be worked out in practice, in the distant future.

In fact there have been some relationships in the Faith that show that apparent conflicts of authority are resolved by the spirit of the Faith.
First, though there were two Manifestations of God on earth at the same time, Baha'u'llah and the Bab each deferred to the other, and each offered to lay down His life for the other. (WOB 125 and Selections from the Writings of the Bab, p. 59) They worked it out, though with our limited minds we would anticipate a conflict.
The rank of the Greatest Holy Leaf exceeded that of Shoghi Effendi (Messages to America, p. 33) but she deferred to his position as Guardian of the Faith. (Bahiyyih Khanum, p. 122)
Though both the Guardian and the Universal House of Justice were successors to Baha'u'llah and Abdu'l-Baha (WOB 20), each would defer to the other, as Shoghi Effendi wrote that the Master could never have created a conflict of authority in the Faith. (discussed here: http://bahai-covenant.blogspot.com/2010/11/house-justice-legislation-infallibility.html)
Abdu'l-Baha, though Head of the Faith, having corrected a translation prepared by one of the friends, stated that He would defer to the Spiritual Assembly of Cairo in its publication. (Baha'i Administration, p. 23)
So I would anticipate that in practice there would be no possible conflict between Shoghi Effendi and any official in civil authority, whether Baha'i or not.

NSAs issue political instructions to politicians all the time.
The NSA of UK for example in 1996 opposed the repeal of Section 28. There is another issue involving the NSA of Guyana opposing a gender equality bill. I will have to look it up. I will have to use Wayback Machine to find it. Simmilar such intructions could probably be found on any and all culture wars.
Scribd gives the whole letter of the UK NSA letter.
The following 1999 statement by the N.S.A. of Guyana is an argument against human rights whether individuals are Baha'is or not.
"The National Spiritual Assembly of the Bahá'ís of Guyana asks that your Government ensure that any legislation enacted safeguards the rights of all, but only insofar as the limits of morality may not be transgressed. It would not be acceptable for example, if the Constitution implicitly allows same sex persons to demand the right to be married. We do not believe this may have been the intention of the Amendment, but it should be sufficiently carefully constructed that such a situation does not automatically follow."
Accessed from: http://www.gy.bahai.org/amendment.html on 24 April 2010.
The issues in the letters are:
1. According to the letters, the State should serve religion especially on culture war issue. That secularists in society and their views don't matter, only those of religious people.
2. According to the letters, either religious people as a whole are a united front on all issues or the truly religious people are the only ones who are, see the idea of No True Scotsman fallacy but with religious people. Religious Tolerance give counter examples to the theory of a united front.
3. It doesn't really much go into other religion despite claiming all religious people being one the same page. The implication is that all Jews, Chrsitians, Muslims, Zoroastrians, Hindus, and Buddhists share the Bahai views on moral issues, political issues, and culture war issues. Polling and denominational positions show otherwise.

KNOXVILLE (SUBMITTED) -- The University of Tennessee Lady Vol basketball team cruised to an 86-53 exhibition victory over two-time defending NAIA champions Union (Tenn.) on Sunday at Thompson-Boling Arena.
Union hung tough for much of the first half and drew to within 21-18 before the Big Orange closed the half on an 18-3 run to take a 39-21 lead into the locker room. Tennessee was keyed by the play of sophomore Glory Johnson, who led Tennessee with 20 points and 11 rebounds, both game-highs.
After being critical of her team's defensive performance on Tuesday night against Carson-Newman, UT coach Pat Summitt spoke much more glowingly about today's defensive effort, but emphasized that the team still has improvements to make.
"I thought our defense was better than it was Tuesday night," Summitt said. "We've got to look at the other team's personnel and have a sense of urgency about finding their best shooters. Our two freshmen will get better, but we expect our upperclassmen to know what to do and communicate."
Tennessee got a spark from the return of Vicki Baugh. A junior forward, Baugh had not played since suffering a second torn ACL on Feb. 3, 2009. She entered the game to a standing ovation from the 11,252 fans at Thompson-Boling Arena, something she said really meant a lot to her.
"It was awesome," Baugh said. "It was just a pleasure to be back on the court. I felt like one of the veterans coming back to play with the young kids. It's just been too long since I've been on the court."
Three other Lady Volunteers scored in double figures, led by Alicia Manning's 13 points. Taber Spani and Shekinna Stricklen added 10. UT pulled down 49 boards (20 offensive) to Union's game total of 23 and forced 19 turnovers.
Union head coach Mark Campbell said he was proud of his team's effort.
"We pride ourselves on being able to play on the same level emotionally no matter what is going on during the game," Campbell said. "I think we competed the entire night."
Kayla Hudson led the Lady Bulldogs with 17 points on 6-of-14 shooting, including 5-of-10 from way downtown.
Tennessee will begin the regular season on Friday, Nov. 12 with a trip to Louisville. Tip for that game is scheduled for 7 p.m. ET.
Fans are reminded to follow the Lady Vols on Twitter at www.twitter.com/UTLadyVols.

Character is a story that ran in the New York Times Magazine (a Sunday insert)
as well as on the New York Times website. The paper has a circulation of about
a million, and the website is the most popular American newspaper website with
30 million estimated unique visitors annually.
A unique idea is cropping up in some American Schools, and that is the idea of teaching character as well as academics. Success, they believe, is not the result of being smart, but also of having ingrained character traits that allow one to handle failure, have empathy, posses gratitude etc. In the story, seven traits are characterized: Grit, Optimism, Curiosity, Self-Control, Gratitude, Zest... and that old chestnut, Social Intelligence. Our objective was to infiltrate the actual school grounds with these words to illustrate the idea that these character traits are as much of a part of the school as the walls, doors, textbooks and biology specimens. Our target audience was the informed reading public, and our strategy was to enchant them with a magical installation of a simple idea.
Once one realizes that our installation is not Photoshop, but rather a 3-D application of painters tape in a real school environment, we hope that that the delight of seeing carefully executed typographic anamorphism illustrating a provocative article might bring a sense of satisfaction to the reader. I don't know if this is positively "innovative" though I haven't seen a strategic use of typographic anamorphism used editorially. I do know that it was a real delight to watch the installations come together, and that the team assembling them with me—as well as the kids in the schools—were thrilled to see each one take shape so that the word, distorted from all angles but one, finally, seemed to magically float in space in front of us, defying gravity. The Times posted a stop-time animation that we created of the installation of GRIT, and it has been viewed over 130,000 times.

New Year, New STD
A few days after New Year's, a male comes in with a chief complaint that he doesn't feel well and wants an STD check. He mutters, "Ugh…New Year's Eve was really crazy."
Patient presents with "groin pain." Turns out his wife put a ring around his penis and it got stuck. His wife was on the phone and refused to come in saying they were getting a divorce. We had to use wire clippers and metal saw to remove the ring, along with some flesh.
Lava Lamp
PT comes in after a night out with the boys. He states that he had a small, battery-operated lava lamp inserted into his rectum. Sent him to OR for removal.
Crocheted by Granny
Ambulance arrived to ER with 60-something year old female patient that was in a minor car accident. In order to remove the C-collar, I had to check for a spinal injury. As we roll the patient over I notice she is wearing a thong. While that itself is not that strange, the fact that it was crocheted made it a little special.
Attacked by Rooster
EMS called to a working historical farm in town: "Child attacked by rooster."

Go the distance : Venture away from the power outlet with confidence. With long-lasting battery life, the Inspiron 15 isn't finished until you are.
Room to spare : Save plenty of photos, videos and music with up to a 1TB hard drive, giving you plenty of room to archive without worry of limited space. The built-in media card reader makes it easy to transfer videos and photos from your camera while USB 3.0 lets you transfer files to external storage.
The forefront of touch technologyChoose the HD touch option for a truly interactive experience that maintains amazing detail and crisp, brilliant images.

Turn up the heat: From locker rooms to locked cars, we test Inspiron laptops for survival in harsh short-term heat conditions of up to 65°C/149°F.
Everything hinges on it: We test Inspiron laptop hinges to ensure they still feel tight, even after opening and closing the lid 20,000 times.
Keys to success: We test commonly used keys for 10 million keystrokes and touch pad buttons 1 million times with no failure. So go ahead, finish your novel.
Buttoned up: No matter what you set your power and multimedia buttons to do, we've tested them all to survive up to 40,000 pushes with no problems.
Twist and turn: Call us excessive, but after twisting an Inspiron laptop's base and lid more than 25,000 times, we can assure you the parts inside are well protected.
Always a good fit: You'll probably never need to remove and reinstall your Inspiron's battery 30 times, but you can rest easy knowing that we've tested even that.

Supposedly given in 1712, the "Willie Lynch Speech" is widely believed to be authentic. Actually, as revealed in this book, it is an amateurish and malicious hoax. Unfortunately, many people taken in by this hoax have spread and championed it. An extreme example of this championing occurred in 1995 at the Million Man March. There, the "Willie Lynch Speech" was dramatically repeated. Marchers and millions around the world who witnessed the March through television and radio were presented with this hoax as fact and history.In the Death of Willie Lynch Speech, Professor Manu Ampim exposes the myth of Willie Lynch. Ampim does this by documenting the 20th century origin and fraudulent history of the "Willie Lynch Speech" and speculating, correctly, about the author's identity--forcing the admitted hoaxer to confess.This volume contains the fake "Willie Lynch Speech," correspondence between Ampim and the admitted hoaxer, and the hoaxer's confession. 67 pages. Also available as a Kindle e-book for $4.95.

How Do I Cancel My Pof Account?
How do I cancel my Plenty of Fish aka POF profile?
Their website is not clear at all. Even the help section of their site shows you need to delete it by clicking Resign on the Menu bar. This simply does not exist. "Sign into your POF account, click on 'Resign' under the menu bar, fill out your username, password, and reason for leaving. " So after some digging through the site I found that if you go to http://www.plentyoffish.com/deleteaccountb.aspx you can then delete your profile. Talk about making it difficult!
yes they made it very difficult because they do not want people to delete their account so they lied about having a resign button! ASSHOLES! makes me soooooooo mad!
thanks for the link.
a remote firewall is blocking connection to pof.com?
No. POF is down today.
As of 10pm tonight, it was still down. And I was just about to hook up with someone!
Here's to a quick recovery!
How do I cancel my tagged account?
I really want to cancel it but when i try 2 log in 2 cancel it it says that i dont have an account but it keeps sending me emails i'm desperate how do i stop it?
I was able to cancel successfully. Went to the account tab; went to the bottom of the page and it let me do it. I was curious whether it really was cancelled after reading your entry. When I tried to access it, it said account was cancelled.
If that doesn't work contact Tagged support:

I want to cancel my jillian michaels account? I made an account and I regret doing so. I will just go to a local gym so I was wondering how to get rid of the account. I dont see anything that says cancel account or cancel membership. Can someone help me. I dont want to be charged for something I wont use.
Hey I'm in the same boat.....what a rip.
How easy is it to cancel an etrade account?
I want to get an online brokerage account and etrade is the most appealing to me because of the iPhone app. However I have heard that they have terrible customer service, does anyone know from personal experience how difficult it is to cancel an etrade account? Thanks
You don't "cancel" account with any B/D, you just stop using them.
B/D are required to keep inactive accounts on the books for at least 18 months, and the account documentation for 6 years after the account has been closed.
You can just not use the account, after 12-18 months the account will be moved to an inactive status, then eventually purged from the syste,
You could send a written notice to e-trade telling them that you will not be using the account and they will "close" the account by coding it NMB (no more business)

Technical Data
CDX2 (CDX2, Caudal Type Homeobox Transcription Factor 2, HGNC:1806, CDX-3, CDX3)
The caudal-related homeodomain protein 2, CDX-2, is a transcription factor which is expressed in the intestine and is thought to play an important role in the proliferation and differentiation of intestinal epithelial cells. The CDX-2 protein is expressed in primary and metastatic colorectal carcinomas, intestinal metaplasia of the stomach and intestinal type gastric cancer. In human colorectal cancer, the expression of both CDX2 and carbonic anhydrase 1, a gene regulated by CDX2, is reduced or absent (1). CDX-2 is one of the important regulators in defining pathways for coordinate control of drug metabolism in the gastrointestinal tract (2).

Please send your articles, advertisements, useful information and announcements to or use our enquiry form.
This website is visited by 2000 people per week and a growing number of people are contacting us to tell us about their favourite restaurant, local event, society, or club.
Please help us to build this information resource - why keep your local knowledge to yourself?
We play 2 or 3 times per week and continue to welcome all new players this season. Please contact now for details. All welcome.
We are now into our 7th consecutive season in The Nottingham Sunday Football League playing our matches every Sunday morning from September until March/April each year. Training is currently on a Wednesday evening from 8.00pm until 9.00pm (or 9.30pm) at a floodlit venue near Beeston (Hockey Club on University Boulevard NG7 2PS) - all players and newcomers currently welcome, please contact us now for more details!
Due to a couple of injuries, we particularly need a new central defender at the moment and there is always room in the team for a fast, prolific goal scorer! We are actively looking for one or two new players, so why not join our squad?! Competition for places in the starting 11 has been excellent once again this year - newcomers are given every chance to break into the league squad, but are always made very welcome at training (unlike many clubs we don't have an established 'clique', drawing our players from all over Nottingham and from all walks of life). The age group is 18-40 and we have plans to start a veterans team in the next couple of years.
For more information please contact - joining our squad of talented players is also a great way to get fit in 2014/15! Students or relocating professionals moving to Nottingham - you're welcome! What better way is there to settle into a new city than to join us and play Sunday League football?
From June until August we play a wide range of friendly matches to try and stay match fit during the summer and prepare for the following season. It also gives new players a chance to play 11-a-side football and establish themselves in our Sunday league team, without any pressure. So there has never been a better time to join Beeston.biz FC!
If you currently play five-a-side football and would like to try 11-a-side for the first time, or you haven't played on grass for a few years, what are you waiting for?! After our promotion in the league season that ended in April 2012 (then staying up in that division the following year), ideally we're looking to add some committed, locally based football players of a good standard, but we always try to welcome everyone at training regardless of their ability.
We are proud to be one of the best amateur / Sunday League Football Clubs in Nottingham - former players who've moved away from Nottingham (because of work or other commitments) often get in touch weeks later to say things like 'I wish I could find a club like yours where I live now' and we even have some who travel back to Nottingham every weekend to carry on playing for us!
Each Player Must Bring £4 Subs And Their Own Kit To Training, Including Shin Pads. Although we nearly always have a couple of pairs of spare socks and shinpads with us, we ask that all football players bring their own kit if at all possible (or let us know in advance if you need to borrow some kit). So when you come to training, please bring the following with you:
Shin Pads, Socks and Shorts or tracksuit trousers
Training top and/or suitable football shirt / t-shirt
Good pair of trainers or boots with plastic moulded studs*
£4 per player in correct change in coins
Water bottle or drink (we normally take water bottles but not always)
*In winter we usually train on an all weather astro-style playing surface so good trainers (not blades, which often cause twisted ankle injuries on hard playing surfaces) or 'mouldies' with short plastic studs. A pair of football trainers with good grip or boots can usually be bought at well known local sports retailers for between 15 and 30 pounds. Obviously the weather will affect what sort of trainers or boots will be best so please use your own judgement and come to training well prepared!
We provide training equipment such as marker cones, whistles, bibs, posts, balls and first aid kit. All players should note that the club does not have extensive insurance cover for accident or injury, so you should have your own individual insurance, particularly if you have a job that you could no longer do after being injured playing football.
Lifts for players who don't drive are arranged using our Facebook Group page, or by email. Lifts from various points are often available. A number of lads get the bus from town (Nottingham city centre) and some of the others bike it there.

Minneapolis Police Sgt. David Clifford fired for ethics code violation
The reason former Minneapolis Police Sgt. David Clifford was fired now has become part of the public record.
Clifford was convicted of a felony after assaulting a fellow bar patron in Anoka last summer.
The reason for his termination was based on violation of the police department's Code of Ethics.
"Mr. Clifford's conduct that day is in direct conflict with the core values and mission of the Minneapolis Police Department and what we represent," said Police Chief Janee Harteau in a news release.
Harteau took action to begin Clifford's termination in February.
He then filed a grievance with the Police Federation contesting the termination. The federation withdrew the grievance following Clifford's April 13 conviction of a felony.
"This incident should not reflect upon the women and men of this department, who serve this community with integrity each day," said Harteau.
Clifford was a 20-year department veteran who during his career was nominated for the Medal of Honor and received two Metals of Valor.
In a story last week about the Minneapolis Police Department's annual awards ceremony, we noted that Lloyd Kwiecien was selected as the Civilian Employee of the Year but we incorrectly described his job.
Kwiecien is an evidence technician in the Property and Evidence Unit.
