Dominion could really use some publicity, and this seems golden. If we can get Moobeat 'n' co to add real, substantial Dominion playstyle info on these cards (and who knows, maybe even do a few general strategy cards), then I have the strong feeling it would really help Dominion grow a bit.
The key would be to have high level players provide the info. That way it's useful stuff and not LOL rush trinity force on Ezreal or I Play Rammus As A Back Capper...

Recent years have seen a steep increase in the frequency and economic impacts of disasters, and Italy has been no exception. In addition to increased seasonal variance linked to climate change, the devastating earthquakes around LAquilla in 2009 make Italy a case study for policy-makers, emergency management practitioners, academics and international organisations who are searching for solutions, notably in the areas of disaster damage reduction policies. The Italian civil protection system offers a rich source of best practices for their consideration. The National Department of Civil Protection in particular, as the hub of the National Civil Protection Service, provides a model of professionalism and leadership. The review report also identifies many challenges facing the Italian civil protection system and areas where improvements are still needed.

Deborah Hope riffs on the many meanings of Respect in the Australian. She's right. It has become a flexible word, prominent in the vocabulary of relativism. All beliefs are entitled to respect (but especially mine ...) She might also have said that the discourse of respect is usually self-centred and blaming. Feeling disrespected is a more common sentiment than feeling ashamed for disrespecting others.
The Guardian reports in a story headlined 'We're not germs or louts. Sarkozy should've said sorry' that some French rioters are complaining that the French government doesn't respect them. It sounds like gangster-talk, and it might be dismissed as posturing. However, there is merit to the complaint that French society disrespects its underclass. French immigration and
social policy has tended to marginalize East European, African, and North African immigrants and their children. Some French politicians have used inflammatory language toward everyone who lives in La Zone, which has helped keep the anger and crime going. Some political and media figures are explaining the riots as a mass protest against social conditions. The rioters have the government's attention, which is a kind of respect.

Google's Bigger Opportunity: Chrome OS, Not Android
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- In terms of computing market share, Google (GOOG) is on a roll. Consider the advancements in smartphones, tablets and laptops:
1. Android came from nowhere in early 2009 to total domination in smartphone market share today, in almost every country around the world. That's like U.S. military strength from 1941 to 1945.
2. After some early stumbles, Android, in conjunction with its hardware partners such as Samsung and Asus most prominently, have finally started cracking the code on the tablet market with Nexus and other tablets. The market share is still moderate, but it appears to be gaining against the iPad every day.
3. Samsung, Acer and most recently Lenovo (LNVGY) are now stamping out Google PCs based on Chrome OS. While market share is modest overall, there is a breakthrough in the education market, and with the enterprise and consumer markets in sight.So where does Google go from here? Will it simply continue to grow linearly in these three silos described above? We have to examine the potential for Google's two operating systems, Android and Chrome OS. Let's start with the first important distinction, touch vs. keyboard. If you are doing "typing" work, such as typing this article, working on a spreadsheet, creating a presentation or working with multiple browser windows side by side with each other -- or with large and/or multiple displays/monitors -- touch is not the right way to go. You need a keyboard and either a trackpad (laptop) or a mouse (desktop). A finger simply isn't as precise at grabbing text, editing, pointing and selecting. In addition, your arms will go bonkers constantly reaching forward to a screen. The bigger the display/monitor, and the more of them you are using side by side, the worse the touchscreen scenario becomes. On the other hand, a touchscreen is the dominant way to use a smartphone. More about the BlackBerry keyboard scenario later. In between the smartphone and PC scenarios reside the tablets. Some tablets -- say, those smaller than nine or so inches -- will realistically be used in finger mode almost all the time. Larger tablets, such as the large/original iPad and some Windows 8 devices, can also be used in "convertible" mode, with a keyboard that attaches or folds.

I am new here and our family is going to be getting a shih tzu puppy. I have been reading all about them and we are excited to add one to our family. I was wondering if there is a difference between a male and female, besides the obvious. The dog is going to be a family pet and will be fixed.
We have three kids and a heeler mix, female.
I appreciate any advice

Now I have three boys and a girl. We love our girl. In fact, we tell her all the time that we are going to love her whether she likes it or not! She does things on her terms only. She's more aloof, moody and indepedent. She jumps off the bed at night to be alone on the floor. She will sit next to us on the couch, but NEVER on our lap, and would not give us a kiss if her life depended on it. Our boys want nothing more out of life than to spend time cuddling with us and if our face isn't close enough to kiss, will settle for kissing our bare feet when we walk by them, just to make sure we know they're there.
Inevidably, someone will come along and tell you that their girl is loving, and she probably is. But, to make a fair comparison you need to have experience with both boy and girl Shih Tzus. I do, and especially if you think you will only have one Shih Tzu (although, they do become addicting!), you should go for a boy.
Honestly, though, you really can't go wrong. The question is, what do you want out of your dog? If you want a diva to dress up and wear frilly bows and dresses, then get a girl. If you want a little love bug to cuddle and play with, go for a boy. Either way, you will LOVE having a Shih Tzu in your life!
Make sure your furbaby comes from a reputable breeder, and they can help you with choosing the specific pup that is right for your family. Or, if you are going to rescue, ask lots of questions and spend time with prospective pups before you make a decision. Good luck!

He is calm, sweet, meditative, tolerant.
The girls are a bit moody, but also sweet. But since you already have a female, I'd go male.

This was just what I needed.
I/we(my daughter thinks I am getting it for her ) would like a loving little dog.
We can't get two dogs. My husband is not super thrilled about getting another dog, especially a puppy. Of course once he comes home he will melt I am sure.
I have one question. Can you put a top knot in a boys hair?
Thanks again for the help.
Posted 21 September 2009 - 12:54 PM
and my boy wasn't neutered until like 10 months old and even before the neuter and after, he is still the most loving dog i have ever had....through growing up out of 6 dogs over 20 years, 4 were male and two were female. by far the males were always the most loving dogs of the bunch. and yeah, not matter what their size they will try to protect their mommies!
i think the important thing too is to socialize your dogs starting from an early age (once they have all their shots of course).
Posted 21 September 2009 - 01:13 PM
Yes sure you can put his hair in a topknot. Many people on the boards have boys with topknots, myself included..although Gizzy has had a haircut but we are trying to grow it back. He even had pigtails for a while
My hubby hated the topknot when he had one but now he misses it lol

but yeah boys are usually the ones that hump, oz used to try and hump this one mini schnauzer he'd see on walks (after that dog tried to hump him) but that was the only one he every tried doing it to and it lasted for maybe a month and a half tops and then he stopped, i guess the novelty wore off, lol.
Posted 21 September 2009 - 02:38 PM
Oh, and by the way , Ozzy is growing his hair out and will totally have a top knot. I can put a small bow in now. My husband doesn't like it, but too bad. I put his bow in and he is a total "mama's boy". He wears it like a man! HA.
Posted 21 September 2009 - 03:19 PM
what's funny about the humping things is the only dogs i've seen hump that any family member have owned are girls, mother and daughter in fact, humping eachother...oz looks at them like "what is wrong with you?!?!?!?"
but yeah boys are usually the ones that hump, oz used to try and hump this one mini schnauzer he'd see on walks (after that dog tried to hump him) but that was the only one he every tried doing it to and it lasted for maybe a month and a half tops and then he stopped, i guess the novelty wore off, lol.
Yea, too funny....Josie is the one to hump Maddy when her cousin comes over or if she can't get him to play when SHE wants to....it's a dominance thing....HOWEVER, Maddy humps Josie ONLY just after she is bathed....go figure.

Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks (FWP), Region One, has written a draft environmental assessment (EA) for Lone Pine State Park (T28N, R22W, S24) in Flathead County for the purpose of granting an easement on the existing tower access road to a telecommunications company for the purpose of accessing their existing tower near the park's northwest boundary . In consideration for this easement, park managers would receive additional noxious weed treatment funds to be used at Lone Pine. The five-year easement would also result in additional site protection measures to prevent illegal off-road travel.
The EA is out for public review until Wednesday, May 10, 2006. Copies of the draft are available at FWP headquarters, 490 N Meridian, Kalispell; Montana State Library, 1515 E 6th Ave., Helena; the Flathead County Library, 247 First Ave. E, Kalispell; and the FWP web site at fwp.mt.gov.

Trade Copiers
MT5 -> MT4 Trade Copier
Mt4 to JForex
Contact us for more information: firstname.lastname@example.com
Taking Advantage of the Forex Signal Copy
If you want to start trading on Forex you'd find there is just so much information to juggle. To become a successful Forex trader you never stop learning. If you want to make profitable gains you must learn, practice and test your skills. Once you have mastered a particular skill and strategy, you should pick another one and experiment it. This will give you more knowledge to be able to take advantage of the markets regardless of how they are performing. One of the things you can learn is how you can use Forex signal copy.
Forex Signals Copy
Forex signals can be described as currency prices that can used to detect money making entry and exit. These signals are crucial if you want to be successful in trading. Traders who experience constant wins have spent a lot of time practicing technical analysis skills which include candlestick charts, bar, relative strength indicators, waves and retracement levels, momentum indicators and moving averages. In addition they had to master price charts and fundamental analysis. All the above mentioned technical skills and basic analysis skills can be used by traders to identify profitable entry and exit points.
Copying signals is a convenient way being profitable in trades without having to spend too much time learning. The signal copier works by using MT4 signal copy. With this, inexperienced or novice traders can copy the trades of professional traders; and thus reducing risks. Experienced traders can also use the copier to follow the actions of their favorite traders.
How Does Forex Signals Copy Work?
Before you start with Forex signals copy there are basic things you should understand. You should understand currency pairs and trading strategies. Basic understand of currencies and strategies will help you understand different signals boards/page easily. The signals page displays information that shows you how pairs of currencies are performing and when it is time to act (sell or buy). Typically, you can trade in a simple click of a button.
In most cases it takes the following three simple steps to copy signals:
Step #1-Monitor what is happening on the signal page.
Step #2-Copy data to your personal trading account.
Step #3- Lastly, the trade will close and you will profit.
Remember that it all depends on the MT4 signal copy software you use. Some can be a bit complicated. Even with signal copiers, Forex remains a volatile market.
Become a Copy-Cat with Account Copying
In the world of forex online trading, it is not unusual for people to use trade copying to mimic the results of some professional traders. However, there is another way which is generally faster than copying every single trade a pro makes: account copying. With an account copier, an amateur user can copy an entire account of a professional, not just a trade. Some professionals seek to make an even greater profit by selling the signals of their accounts and trades to others, but waiting for each trade and each signal to appear in order to sell can be very time consuming. Because of this problem, a trader, especially if they are on MetaTrader4, can reap many benefits by using a MT4 copier.
Time-Saving and Flexible
Not everyone can stay up 24 hours, seven days a week, to ensure they don't miss a trading signal. Even if they spend all day watching for signals of certain trades, it doesn't leave much time for anything else. This is where a copier comes in. It monitors the signals of specific accounts that you have chosen and copies those trades so you don't have to wait on them, saving you stress and time. In addition, a trader is not stuck copying the trades of only one account but can copy multiple accounts all at once, provided there is enough equity for it. This capability generates flexibility for the user because they don't have to stick with one specific strategy nor are they tied to their computers all day.
If you have a greater equity than the signal provider, an account copier allows you to multiply the amount of the lot purchased. If your multiplier is 10, then you will buy 10 times more than the account you are copying. Conversely, if you have less than the signal provider, you can adjust the multiplier down to buy only a fraction of what the professional account is buying. All you have to do is setup the MT4 copier to do it and it will run on its own, making decisions and trades for you while you are sleeping.
If you're thinking of getting into forex trading, or you're already involved, but don't want to wait around to copy every single trade a professional account makes, then you should seriously consider account copying. However, even with all of these great options and the ability to diversify, this method is no guarantee you will make money or have a profit.
From Amateur to Experienced – Advantages of Forex Copy Trading
Ever wanted to start trading in foreign exchange, otherwise known as forex trading, but don't know how? Do you wonder how the more successful traders make so much on their trades? Don't worry anymore. Now, there's an easy way to get started and mimic the professionals with forex copy trading.
What exactly does forex trading entail?
Foreign exchange trading is simply swapping one currency, like the US Dollar, for another one, like the Euro. There's quite a bit of terminology involved, but if you chose to use your money to invest the Euro against the US Dollar, you would make money if the Euro's value increased against the US Dollar's value. If you chose to invest in the US Dollar rather than the Euro, you would make a profit if the US Dollar's value increased against the Euro's value. There are several platforms that can help with forex trading, but the most well-known is MetaTrader4 or MT4 for short. MT4 allows you to see various exchange prices, gives you charts, shows you the live trades of professionals and amateurs, and lets you manage your forex trading account.
Do It Like The Pros
Once you are accustomed to the trading platforms, you will probably wonder how you should be making trades. If you're not a very adventurous investor or you lack time to really do research on foreign exchange history, you can start by copy trading. Copy trading means that you literally copy a specific trading strategy or trader based on the exchanges made. With this method, there is almost no input needed by the trader other than selecting which traders and strategies to follow. This is why some experienced traders choose this method as an additional source of trading because it doesn't require much intervention on their part. Once specific strategies or traders to follow are selected, the trading platforms will do everything for you.
Thankfully, most of the platforms allow you to follow multiple strategies and traders, which means you can diversify your investments, so if one particular exchangehas a negative return, you won't lose all your money and you have plenty of other trades to make a profit. Trade copiers have grown in the past few years from a select few to a massive number of individuals, which means even more diversification in their portfolios. However, remember that many trade copiers can lose money on trades, and following certain strategies or traders does not guarantee a profit for you.
The Benefits of Using a Trade Copier
A trade copier is basically used to copy trades of other successful traders. It is a software package that is believed to make trading simple and easier. This software is custom made to fulfill the needs of an individual trader and serve as Expert Advisor (EA); and can be used on a MetaTrader 4 (MT4) platform. There are many copy software on the market; however, they differ in terms of features and functionality. Just like any other product, the price determines what you get. If you don't want to paythe high price ensure that you find a tried and tested program.
There are three things a copy trader will allow you to do and here they are:
View the Activities of Other Traders
The trade copier ea help you to see what other professional traders are doing in the market. This is particularly important for novice traders. You will be able to watch the movements in the market and be able to make the necessary movements. From these activities you can expand or build your trading portfolio based on the market performances you witness.
Follow the Leading Traders
The trade copier ea allows you to analyze trading history, trading styles, win ratios and charts. You will be able to watch all the moves expert traders make, you will know which currencies they are trading and when. Through this program you will be able to use the experiences of others to determine what could work best for you. If you find a trader you prefer, you can follow that trader and let him/her make future investments for you.
Copy the Trading Strategies and Activities of Others
After you selected the successful traders you want to follow, you can monitor them as they trade. As you monitor them you may find a strategy you like that you can copy and use it to profit. The trade copier also gives you an opportunity to invest in your favorite leading traders and profit from them, while you make profits from your individual trades.
The MT4 trade copier was never meant for novice traders only. Advanced traders can use it to expand their knowledge. It can also be a safe way to see if other trading styles are profitable. In a nutshell the MT4 trade copier can teach you how to trade like a professional, automate your trades and relieve the emotional stress that is often associated with trading.

How does it Work?
The advantages of using a trade copier are that you won't have to learn all those complicated trading strategies, systems and methods; you will not have to go through the psychological element of trading which has a great impact on the result and you won't have to stick your eyes on the computer the whole day monitoring your trades.
Forex account managers use copiers to copy trades from the master MT4 account to slave accounts. The Forex trader would then focus only on the master account while the copier software program handles the slave accounts. The software copy trades and executes trade actions automatically. Your MetaTrade 4 account should have options for money management, settings for maximum trades andautomatic detection or manual setting of currency pair suffix. An advanced MT4 would send email alerts, filter trades and have push notifications features.
What Do I need to start?
To start with Forex trade copier you need a demo or live account. You can open this account with any broker of your choice. The Forex copy trade usually involves the following pairs of currencies: usd/jpy, eur/usd, usd/chf, gbp/usd, eur/jpy andusd/cad.
The Risks Involved
Understand that the trade copier Forex does not guarantee that you will win. This simply provides an easy and faster way to profit. You must still expect to win some trades and lose some.
There are many scammers in the market posing as profitable trade copiers, you really must be careful. It is advisable to select a program that is well-known and widely used by traders. There are three kinds of trade copier companies: the negligent, predators and legitimate. The negligent companies lack intelligence and diligence to create profitable programs and have expert advisors with immeasurable risks.
The predators deliberately create fraudulent programs and aim to cash out of unsuspecting and inexperienced traders. Legitimate companies have legitimate algorithms that cannot be easily manipulated. Their systems have proper reward ratios and risks.
Finding a good copier lies in your hands. Do some research online and find both positive and negative reviews. Remember that trading is very risky. The key is to invest the amount of money you are willing to lose, because winning is not definite.
The best TradeCopier is PowerTradeCopier
How Different Price Feeds can Affect your Copying
The Forex brokers use different sources of the price feed to put into trading platform. This creates a situation when quotes on the Master Account and Slave Account showing different prices. For Example:
This price feeds difference will affect your copying. To avoid copying errors you need to increase Slippage in PowerTradeCopier settings. The Slippage should be big enough to cover the price difference.
In the example above it is enough to keep slippage at 10 but every situation is different. We recommend you to use PowerTradeCopier on demo first to make sure that your settings fit your situation.

According to Marc Thiessen, our stance on Todd Aiken was pretty justified if only if we treat the statement by a Planned Parenthood official the same way. That during a hearing of a Florida Bill to require Abortion Clinics to provide care to any child born as a result of a botched abortion, a Planned Parenthood official (Alisa Snow) responded to the question "If a baby is born on a table as a result of a botched abortion, what would Planned Parenthood want to have happen to that child that is struggling for life?" With "We believe that any decision that's made should be left up to the woman, her family, and the physician.".
And i DISAGREE with Marc here.
Todd Aiken's statement showed a frankly terrifying lack of understanding of female biology and an attitude in a law maker that one of the biggest crimes against women is only valid if a woman doesn't get pregnant from it. And that this is a world where people from Todd's party are pushing for more ignorance only sex education which only compounds the problem. And that this man had an actual effect on the access to women's healthcare.
Alisa's statement is just someone responding badly to a strawman argument and someone trying to sneak idiotic rules through the back door in order to hamstring abortion clinics and reduce their profit margins (and before anyone goes Waah Profits! Remember all of you work for profit. Not working for profit makes you "poor".) with the goal of either pricing out abortions or making it unprofitable to work as an abortion doctor and therefore reduce availability of service.
But if Planned Parenthood really does provide such care, why was it lobbying against a bill requiring such care in the first place?
Apparently there was some sort of firestorm in the Conservative Media which we all missed. Unlike that Todd Aiken thing which had people in India laughing at Republicans because "Todd Aikens probably thinks the Stork won't deliver babies to raped women", this is a grey area.
There is a reason to not provide "medical care" to some people including new born babies.
In the UK any child born before 23 weeks is given an automatic DNR and does not receive medical care to live. They are in effect "left to die" by the declaration of various christian groups who are appalled.
The reality of the situation is that children born before 23 weeks of gestation have poorly developed lungs and roughly 9% of children born at 23 weeks survive and 97% of those who survive are permanently damaged and often vegetative. In the interest of the child it is better to not treat such a child.
The fact is, it is not as unusual for children to be left to die after a failed abortion as some might think. Right now in Philadelphia, abortionist Kermit Gosnell is on trial for the murder of seven infants who were born alive. According to District Attorney Seth Williams, Gosnell "induced labor, forced the live birth of viable babies in the sixth, seventh, eighth month of pregnancy and then killed those babies by cutting into the back of the neck with scissors and severing their spinal cord." Prosecutors said that Gosnell ended hundreds of pregnancies in this way. "These killings became so routine that no one could put an exact number on them. They were considered 'standard procedure.' "
Except Gosnell's clinic didn't meet the basic standards set by doctors and relied on the provision of cheap care for desperate women.
And interestingly enough?
60% to 70% of women who need abortions have them during the first trimester. The remaining 29 to 39% of women who need abortion have them at the second trimester. The third trimester abortions mentioned here are insanely rare. They are the exception rather than the rule.
Across the border in Canada, the government reports that between 2000 and 2009, 491 babies were left to die after they were born alive during abortions. There are no similar statistics here in the United States, but according to the Abortion Survivors Network there are an estimated 44,000 abortion survivors living in the country today. How many more did not survive for lack of medical care?
Note the ages mentioned? All below 23 weeks.
It sounds terrible but honestly? A baby born prior to 23 weeks has no effective lungs.
And there are people who question the 23 week cut off in the UK and want it raised.
In a large part of the USA if you are born at 20 weeks you HAVE to save the child even if it isn't in the child's best interest.
Recently a major motion picture, October Baby, told the true story of one abortion survivor in search of her birth mother and of her struggle to forgive her. The woman depicted in the movie,Gianna Jessen, testified before Congress about why she lived after her mother underwent a saline abortion: "Fortunately for me the abortionist was not in the clinic when I arrived alive… I was early…. I am sure I would not be here today if the abortionist would have been in the clinic, as his job is to take life, not sustain it."
You mean Obstetrician/Gynaecologists. Let's call them by their real name.
My aunt does abortions. Upto the 7th Month. She also has delivered hundreds of children.
Just this year.
Abortion saves lives despite such heart wrenching stories of abortion survivors who all universally seem to be "delivered intact at 20 odd weeks" and now have "serious health issues" and co-opted to flog pro-life attitudes. And Gianna survived her abortion at 7 months and 2 weeks? There were other issues that came to play. Remember the restrictions with late term abortions…
Amazingly, some argue that killing babies like Gianna is morally permissible. Recently two bioethicists, Alberto Giubilini and Francesca Minerva, published a paper in the peer-reviewed Journal of Medical Ethics entitled "After-birth abortion: why should the baby live?" They wrote: "[W]hen circumstances occur after birth such that they would have justified abortion, what we call after-birth abortion should be permissible. … [W]e propose to call this practice 'after-birth abortion', rather than 'infanticide,' to emphasize that the moral status of the individual killed is comparable with that of a fetus … rather than to that of a child. Therefore, we claim that killing a newborn could be ethically permissible in all the circumstances where abortion would be. Such circumstances include cases where the newborn has the potential to have an (at least) acceptable life, but the well-being of the family is at risk."
We do that with siamese twins who share an important organ.
Here is the thing. There is no difference between a child born at 9 months and a child in the wound at 8 months and 29 days. In fact you are not conscious for the first few months of life. You are effectively a bundle of reflexes at that point. In fact we cannot test your neurological status unless a few months pass and you "stop" developing.
And indeed that was an ethical paper arguing for a point and it's meant to encourage debate on the issue. We regularly sign DNR for new born babies where it is not in the patient's interest to provide medical care.
This is Orwellian. The term "after-birth abortion" is an oxymoron. You can't kill an unborn child after it has been born.
Or you know. It's an ETHICS PAPER to apply logic to defend a hypothetical situation.
It's like how I had to stand against Gay Marriage when I was part of a debate team for "practice" in arguing a weak position. Hell, I actually saw how incompetent Anti-Prop 8 defenders were on the California Ballot for Obama's first election. The actual joke was that the people who wrote Anti-Gay Marriage stuff, despite holding an inferior moral position still won because the people who wrote the blurb "for" gay marriage wrote it like the rantings of a conspiracy theorist rather than the measured appeal to decency.
There are ethics papers on "pay per medication medicine" too (AKA defending wallet biopsies) where they argue that saving rich people contributes more to the economy. It's horrible but it's mainly a thought exercise.
The fact that Planned Parenthood aggressively lobbies against legislation requiring medical care for such children is appalling. The fact that a Planned Parenthood official testified that killing such children is permissible is shocking. And the fact that most major media outlets — including The Post — all but ignored her comments is distressing.
It's not. It's appalling that a bunch of ignorant people are getting together to dictate medical policy they clearly have no grasp of basic medicine.
We ignored her comments because I have a strange feeling they are taken out of context. I gave an excellent reason why 20 week old foetuses shouldn't be given medical care and be allowed to die. Because the majority of them will not live a independent life and will effectively be stunted by the lack of oxygen. If we invent an artificial womb then "fine" but as of now it's simply a better decision for the child.
Our country is deeply divided over the question of abortion. But can we not all at least agree that killing a born child is murder — not a question that "should be left up to the woman, her family, and the physician"?
It's not killing a child any more than DNF and DNR are murdering adult patients (Do Not Feed, Do Not Resuscitate orders). It's not murdering a child anymore than turning off life support or organ harvesting. It's basically stating that treating a child is not in the best interests of the child. That the medical technology that exists may be able to save a child but at a cost that the child shouldn't pay. The Pro-life stance of giving medical care and "saving" 20 week old babies is not just stupid but it's ANTI-Life. It's like saying "fear not! Your dying child is now a severely mentally retarded child! Good luck finding someone to care for him and covering the costs! And when you die he will have to live in a home! And no we won't provide any income support for the millions of dollars you will haemorrhage in care for this child. Pro-Life! AWAY!!!". It's forcing someone to live with reduced quality of life. Now some people with Cerebral Palsy may merely have musculoskeletal issues but a CNS defect is a major reduction of quality of life.
I had pictures up of a young boy with Cerebral Palsy due to his low birth weight mother. He will never live an independent life. At some point his mother will pass away and either someone will take pity on him and give him a "make work" job or he will live out the rest of his life on the street begging. A pitiful existence, his mother often wishes he wasn't born because it wouldn't break her heart as much as it does now. The day she found out he had CP, her husband went out and had a vasectomy because this child would have bankrupted them. I never saw the father because he apparently worked two jobs to keep his son getting care until we found a physiotherapist who was willing to work for free.
Quality of life is more important than quantity of life.

Court rejects PN's plea for vote recounts
The Constitutional Court has turned down applications by the Nationalist Party for recounts on Districts 8 and 13, meaning that PL will retain its majority in the two districts.
Court President Silvio Camilleri and Judges Giannino Caruana Demajo and Noel Cuschieri said there is no need for recounts to be made again because both injured parties, Claudette Buttigieg on District 8 and Frederick Azzopardi on District 13 will still be MP's in the next Parliament as they are two of the four PN representatives added to the Opposition's side according to law.
The Court said that there is no difference between originally elected MP's or MP's through a parliamentary passport granted by legal amendments that ensure proportional representation. This decision will lead to a legislature with a Parliament made of 69 members.
The Court said that while it is true that the Electoral Commission made mistakes in both district, due to the urgency of calling Parliament to session compounded by the fact that none of the candidates in question will suffer, then the applications should be turned down.
On District 8 the elected PL candidates are Chris Cardona, Edward Zammit Lewis and Edward Scicluna, whilst for PN candidates Beppe Fenech Adami and Tonio Fenech were elected.
District 13 saw Anton Refalo, Franco Mercieca and Justyne Caruana being elected for PL and Giovanna Debono and Chris Said elected on the PN side.
Lawyers John Bonello and Therese Commodini Cachia appeared for the Nationalist Party candidates while Professor Ian Refalo appeared for the electoral commission.
Dr. Paul Lia appeared as defence for Labour candidate and confirmed MP, Justine Caruana.

Cops: NJ Dad Killed His 2 Children, Himself In Tragic Murder-Suicide
A New Jersey father fatally shot his two young children before turning the gun on himself Monday night in a tragic murder-suicide, authorities said.
According to police, 38-year-old Kurtis Birth was at his childhood home located at 21 Skyview Road in Ringwood when he shot and killed his own children -- 5-year-old Jada and 3-year-old Jordan -- then killed himself.
The home was left vacant and in a state of disrepair after his father died and his mother moved to the Bronx.
Police arrived at the Ringwood house after the children's mother, who reported her children missing after learning that Birth had picked up the children from a Wayne daycare center without her knowledge. Her calls to Birth's cell phone also went unanswered.
When officers arrived, they found Jada's body on an outside stairway landing. Cops then found Birth's body slumped over in the driver's seat of his black Nissan Maxima parked outside the home. He died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head, investigators said.
Police entered the home, searching for 3-year-old Jordan and discovered his lifeless body on the first floor, behind the front door.
Both children suffered single gunshot wounds to the back of their heads. All three were pronounced dead at the scene.
The children's mother Zoey Mendoza-Birth, 37, arrived at the house after the children were shot. Although not injured but traumatized upon learning of the tragic shootings, she was transported to St. Joseph's Hospital in Paterson for a medical evaluation.
"This is a type of event that rocks a community," Chief of Police in Ringwood Bernard Lombardo told reporters as he held back tears. "And it shouldn't happen anywhere."
So many officers were affected by the murder-suicide that grief counselors were called to the Rongwood police station house.
The couple was going through a "very friendly separation," according to Pompton Lakes Det. Lt. Steve Seifried. In fact, Birth and Birth-Mendoza still lived in the same condo and both retained custody of their children.
Neighbors and co-workers described Birth as a happy, doting father who never gave any outward indication he was troubled. Birth was an accounts executive for Cablevision.
Authorities did not confirm if Birth left a suicide note.
The investigation into the incident is ongoing.Copyright © 2014, Daily Press

Yosion Peel520 II Transforms iPod Touch 4 to iPhone 4
Yosion Peel520 II iPod Touch 4 Skin with built-in battery is the world's best method to transform your cheap iPod Touch 4 into a full-pledge iPhone 4 smartphone. Instead of the official retail price of $179.99, Merimobiles.com is selling the Yosion Peel520 II for only $114.99 with free shipping.
I have an older Yosion Peel520 which really worked on my iPod Touch 3rd Generation last year. The Chinese inventor of this wonderful device has finished an iPod Touch 4-compatible version. Merimobiles.com and Peel 250.net are the online seller I found to be selling the Yosion Peel520 II so better buy it from them. The Yosion Peel520 II is guaranteed to add iPhone 4-like call and SMS features to an iTouch 4.
The Yosion Peel520 II is thin case for the iPod Touch 4 which has an unlocked SIM slot making it compatible with any GMS 850/900/1800/1900 mobile operator. Aside from giving voice call and SMS functions to the iPod Touch 4, the Peel520 also provides your Apple device a power boost since it comes with a 1200mAh rechargeable battery. Not only that, this device will also provide Bluetooth and GPRS access.
Furthermore, the Peel520 has built-in speaker and microphone which is better than the default hardware installed on the iPod Touch 4. It's also another plus that Yosion gave this Peel520 II a built-in FM tuner something that the original iPod Touch never have. This is definitely one of the best gadget peripherals ever made.
The new Yosion Peel520 II also comes with the latest firmware software version 1.4.7 which fixes a few bugs and allows users to create custom ringtones. The new phone interface also better mimics Apple's iOS 4.3.2 phone calling UI.

Kim Riddlebarger, senior pastor of Christ Reformed Church in Anaheim, California and co-host of the popular White Horse Inn, reviewed Fred Zaspel's The Theology of B. B. Warfield: A Systematic Summary. Riddlebarger wrote his dissertation on Warfield1, so he is in a good position to offer a helpful review of Zaspel's work. It's worth a careful read.
Here's his conclusion:
In conclusion, let me say that Fred Zaspel has done a great service to Christ's church by giving us a most important and most useful volume, one which should be found on the bookshelf and in the iPad (it is also available as a eBook) of anyone who is interested in Reformed theology, the history of Old Princeton, and the work of B. B. Warfield.
Thank you Dr. Zaspel, for writing the book I wish I could have written! This volume is highly recommended.
Mar 11
Wes Bredenhof, Pastor of the Providence Canadian Reformed Church in Hamilton, ON, has a nice review of Fred Zaspel's The Theology of B. B. Warfield: A Systematic Summary. In addition to summarizing the book helpfully, he discusses Warfield's views on apologetics, Scripture, evolution, and perfectionism. It's worth a read.
Here's his conclusion:
The Theology of B. B. Warfield is a comprehensive guide to the thought of "the Lion of Princeton." There's no question it will be a standard reference for decades to come. Anyone interested in the development of Reformed theology on our continent needs to have it and read it.
Mar 9
Tullian Tchividjian shared this classic quote from Warfield on why Christians can never move beyond the gospel:
There is nothing in us or done by us, at any stage of our earthly development, because of which we are acceptable to God. We must always be accepted for Christ's sake, or we cannot ever be accepted at all. This is not true of us only when we believe. It is just as true after we have believed. It will continue to be trust as long as we live. Our need of Christ does not cease with our believing; nor does the nature of our relation to Him or to God through Him ever alter, no matter what our attainments in Christian graces or our achievements in behavior may be. It is always on His "blood and righteousness" alone that we can rest.
This comes from Perfectionism, Part One, vol. 7 of The Works of Benjamin B. Warfield (New York: Oxford University Press, 1932; repr., Grand Rapids: Baker, 2000), 113.

The most pivotal moment of Ralph Zavadil's life, in retrospect, was also the most painful.
A Niagara region cable access legend in the early '90s, the do-it-yourself daredevil's career reached an unintentional climax when his intended plunge off a ladder onto a swimming pool cover backfired and he landed — ouch — on the deck.
The prognosis: a broken neck, and — heh, heh — more media exposure than he'd ever had before.
"I crushed the fourth and fifth cervical vertebrae,'' he intones over the phone from St. Catharines, where he's preparing for a personal appearance at the Waterloo premiere of Beauty Day, a sad, sweet, wildly entertaining chronicle of his rise, fall and rise again as a bona fide Canadian "character.''
"I was laid up for six months. It was the stupidest move, but I wouldn't have got the recognition otherwise, and this movie would not have been made.''
The great thing about Zavadil, and what those obsessed with issues of Canadian identity immediately hone in on, is that he's in no way enamoured with his own success, content to pursue his muse in anonymity, without fanfare or accolades of any kind.
So when critics watching Jay Cheel's engaging, outrageous, yet oddly stirring film slathered on the superlatives — "the original Jackass ... reality pioneer ... ahead of his time" — Zavadil, 47, was quick to distance himself.
"Charlie Chaplin was ahead of his time,'' cracks the originator of such wacky stunts as rooftop tobogganing, clothesline skiing and a disgusting trick that involves snorting eggs up his nose. "Peter Sellers in The Pink Panther was ahead of his time.
"I don't try to overanalyze myself. I just go with the flow.''
The flow, in this case, involved five years of cable access glory on The Cap'n Video Show — featuring Zavadil in welding goggles and a multi-pronged "lightning helmet" — sudden cancellation over a stunt involving a bunny-on-a-bungee and, recently, an attempt to resurrect Cap'n Video with a 20th anniversary retrospective that also, fittingly, turned into a failure.
In many ways, Zavadil — like the Canadian metal band Anvil, about whom a similar doc was made — is the perfect symbol for a culture that celebrates underdogs: a lovable loser (and eternal optimist) who, despite his protestations, finds himself hailed as a misunderstood genius.
"I don't think anyone owed me anything,'' insists the humble legend, who quit a factory job at General Motors because he was excruciatingly bored, and whose mother pops up frequently in the film to lament his alternate career choice.
"It was just a lark — an outlet for anything stupid. I'm not after the recognition. I just care about people laughing.''
Viewing the film for the first time a few days after our conversation, he emails his reaction with a typical lack of pretence.
"It was a blast to watch,'' writes the forthright goofball, who now spends his time assembling bikes for Canadian Tire. "But at the same time it was kinda surreal watching myself blab about myself.
"Hearing the audience laugh or gasp at my unscripted words was also very enlightening, for many things I thought were funny got the gasp and others I thought were straight, got laughs. All in all, it was a very humbling experience."
Beauty Day — which, at press time, led the balloting for the Peoples Choice Award at Toronto's Hot Docs festival — is one of eight films plus a shorts collection that make up the fifth annual Canada Film Days festival at Waterloo's Princess Cinema.
"Part of what I wanted to do is bring creative people in to connect with the audience,'' notes programmer John Tutt, who says a slew of directors, actors and musicians will be in attendance.
"I think the secret is really mixing it up and offering a wide variety of styles: features, French films, cult films and blues documentaries. It's the balance, the mix."
