NEW DELHI, April 15, 2013 - Hinduism has no dearth of rituals.
From birth to death, there is a ritual associated with everything you do. Whether its a small morning prayer ritual before you step out of your home, or a big grand one when you moves houses, get married or have a child, everything comes with its own package of the 'how to do' list.
And when it comes to death, the last rites are performed with a lot of detail, including the ingredients used in the ceremony.
Hindus believe in cremating the dead by giving their bodies to the God of fire. A funeral pyre is lit, usually by the male child of the deceased, amid chanting of hymns and verses from religious texts.
But how that funeral pyre is lit is what struck me recently.
While passing through a crematorium, I saw a little shop outside its boundary walls selling flowers and incense sticks etc.
Like an innocent yet inquisitive child, I just laughed at what I thought was funny and told my father, 'look what a silly guy, is this a place to open a shop'?
My father's answer to that gave me a whole new perspective on life in what I would like to call a small yet precious moment.
He told me that this shopkeeper sells 'funeral related things'. What I then just called 'pyre groceries'!
And then we carried the joke forward. I said, 'oh I am sure he is never out of business. No matter what time of the day, what season of the year, his shop is always open! And then, I am sure no one bargains with him. After all, who would be in a negotiating mode when coming to him to buy things for the last rites of a loved one?'
'And like God, he doesn't worry about new year or Diwali or any such festive time as a high or low business period', Dad added. 'Probably he's the closest to God then', I replied.
But think about it, it would be so nice we were such 'shopkeepers' in our lives. Not worried about rain, sun, heat, cold, birthdays, anniversaries…blah blah blah. What if we just carried on with life in a normal flow?
Wouldn't that be closer to God?

Credit a canny expansion strategy that nabbed "The Help" the number one spot at the box office in its second weekend of release. Disney wisely banked on the film having more buzz than the slate of underwhelming new releases (not all of it positive), and after two weekends, it's easily one of the season's big success stories, as the picture has crested $70 million after only twelve days of release. The establishment has been encouraged - stories of the struggles of minorities highlighted by the heroism of a plucky white person of higher social strata are surefire earners, particularly if you market to families.

Sometimes, a successful play or a popular book—even a comic book—has qualities that just don't transfer to the screen. One Day is based on a best-selling novel, and the producers hired its author, David Nicholls, to write the screenplay, since he's had plenty of exper...Read More »
The Influence Of 'Once Upon A Time In America' & More From Lone Scherfig & Jim Sturgess About The FilmThere's the average romantic comedy with the meet cute or initial hatred between the inevitable lovers, and then there's "One Day." Rather than featuring a traditional love story narrative, set over days, weeks, or even months, "One Day" visits Emma (Anne Hathaway) and Dexter (Jim Sturgess) on July 15 every year, starting in the '80s. The audience gets a glimpse of where they are--and where they are in relation to each other--each year on that day, creating 23 mini-films in one. They're friends who are constantly bordering on being much more,...Read More »
In "One Day," Jim Sturgess' Dexter is kind of an asshole, though certainly the kind of asshole that some women are irresistibly and illogically drawn to. He says and does things to Anne Hathaway's Emma that would make him irredeemable if played by a less charming actor, but because it's Sturgess who's doing the heartbreaking, we're content to watch--and would likely volunteer to be the victim as well. Based on David Nicholls' book (and the author's screenplay), the Lone Scherfig film follows the pair dipping into each others' lives for one day a year across three decades. They perform a dance where they're alternately joining together and pus...Read More »
Treacly, oftentimes predictable, lacking real chemistry and sporting a narrative conceit that never really serves the movie well, if you thought the only thing missing from movies based on Nicholas Sparks novels was questionably convincing English accents, "One Day" may be the movie for you. While t...Read More »
Yes, this is a decades spanning love story set in Britain, so we're not surprised the forthcoming soundtrack to Lone Scherfig's "One Day" reflects that, but man, we definitely had a time warp/flashback when we saw James was on this thing. It has been a long time since we heard those guys.Read More »
Oh, romance. Sometimes you end up chasing your true love for decades even if he's kind of a rakish cad and insensitive jerk which seems to be the message in this new trailer for "One Day."Read More »
Lone Scherfig's followup to her acclaimed "An Education" is not lacking in talent. Starring Anne Hathaway and Jim Sturgess, and based on the best-selling novel by David Nicholls, our expectations that were once running were somewhat dashed when the first trailer for the film dropped last month.Read More »

The July 15 deadline for Photography Book Now (PBN) submissions is fast approaching. If you're not too busy working on your book, we thought you might want to take a moment to hear what David Fahey, one of the PBN jurors, thinks about great photography books and which books have been the most influential in his life.
David has been a dealer in fine art photography in Los Angeles since 1975. In 1987, with his partner Randee Klein Devlin, he opened the Fahey/Klein Gallery, which represents or has exhibited such notable photographers as Irving Penn, Horst P. Horst, Peter Beard, Man Ray, and Henri Cartier-Bresson to name a few.
Blurb: In your opinion, what makes a great book of photographs?
David: Great photographs come from great subject matter. All photography enthusiasts/collectors/book buyers are looking for books that expand our awareness, further inform our world, and expand the history of photography. A great book of photographs accomplishes all of these things.
Blurb: What role has the photography book played in your own career and understanding of photography?
David: I have always understood that a strong exhibition can be made from a strong body of work and book. A comprehensive publication of fresh, new images, lends credibility to the photographer's status and standing in the market place. The book adds to the artist's contribution to the evolution of the history of photography. A large compilation of images representing an idea (or ideas) serves as a window into the artist's mind and expressions. This information is tremendously beneficial to critics, curators, dealers and collectors. The book connects all of these individuals and gives us a better understanding of what the photographer sees and interprets. This is what drives our interest and stimulates our curiosity.
Blurb: What three photography books would you take if stranded on a desert island?
David: Edward Weston's "Day Books," Robert Frank's "The Americans," and Peter Beard's "The End of the Game."
Blurb: What was the first photography book you bought (or consider as being key to your artistic/creative development)?
David: Two books – Edward Weston's "Day Books" and Peter Beard's "Eyelids of Morning."
Thanks for your time, David! As for the rest of you, check out the PBN bookstore. Great submissions are coming in every day. We look forward to seeing yours.

Had to walk a few miles in the heat with my dog when my car broke down. I got a tow to a sation close to my house but no lift home. It was in the 90s and we tried to stick to the shade. We hydrated and took our time resting in the shade. As the heat grew and the shadows shortened we took more frequent breaks. We got a water refill from a guy mowing his lawn. And we made it home, without too much fuss.
I cant take away too much from this except I need a betteremergency kit in the car. Cant always rely on strangers.
Yesterday I swam a shorter set and noticed I was shorter of breath and made the necessary modifications.
I Kicked a few more 100s than usual and tried to slow down. I noticed the swelling in my gut is lower this morning, and the soreness of lying down for a few days is gone.
A clerk at the organic market suggested this was how her menopause started, and I'm just not able to believe it. Im worried I have a parasite but it could be flora "out of balance". SO I found some probiotic gummies (yum!) and and doubling up for a few days with daily aloe vera juice until my doc appt on Monday. Once I get a stool test, I plan to do a parasite cleanse regardless.
This was a really bad couple of days until I found 3 checks for $1500 that I misplaced in early June, It was in the cutting board drawer which I found when I sliced a pineapple. Suddenly I realized how much stress it relieved, both financial and in confidence.
Its going to be 95 so I am going to swim again for sure.
I have this recurring stomach volatility. It has been brewing, receding and brewing. My measurements have been shrinking, except my stomach, which today is so bloated and distended that I have been holding it like I am pregnant. Even a loose pair of shorts is causing me discomfort. Lately I have been eating the best I have ever eaten, and thought I identified the culprit as the aglae in the water cooler, but two weeks later it is back.
To night I bought some probiotics and ginger ale, and will make a doc appt in the morning.
I am down for the count but not out, and I will be healthier when I identify the problem.
Yesterday I found out that the water I drink is missing its trace minerals, from this really nice shopper that was asking me if I replace my trace minerals. I said, I have to replace my trace minerals?
Hmm. According to the store, 10 stage flltration is removing contaminants, but also the good stuff.
I asked this question at my organic market a year ago, and they said, no, all the good stuff is still there. I guess buyer beware, is always going to be true.
Im going back to spring water.
I chose this movie for the literal boundary issues I face with family and work, but also because I see that every decision I make in food and health boils down to the shades of grey between absolutely good for me, or bad for me. Somewhere there is a fence, that separates light from dark, better from worse. This video addressed the emotional motivation of boundary crossing and I really enjoyed it for that.
I like summaries! Sadly, this movie didn't really have any. I was a bit long and preachy. Boil it down, baby. I have my life to live, sparking to log and fitness minutes to crunch. Still there were some good ideas that sparked me, so I am blogging to have a better memory of what I learned.
Overall, I set poor boundaries. One could say poor boundaries show a lack of discipline ( and boy have I heard that a few times in my life!) If you take the lazy vs. disciplined approach however, you miss out on the evaluating the emotional content, especially law #4. * I did my best to list them all below*
Lack of boundaries can be due to needing comfort, putting a balm on loneliness, anger. If we don't examine the motivation behind our financial, interpersonal and fitness decisions, how ever will we be able to look back and say, " That was a solid decision in my best interest!" I want more of those A-HA moments where hindsight illustrates my excellent thinking. (Sounds like a goal!) See law #4 again. Freedom first, then serve others.
In light of that last few sentences, I did walk away with some pearls of wisdom. I need these boundaries for my relationship with my family, and work as well. Oh yeah, and I need to be better at waving the finger at misdirected emotional actions before I eat, skip workouts, or, worst of all, date sleazebag-jerky dudes. (just saying, it could happen )
Here are the laws Cloud and Towsend describe
Law 1: The Law of Sowing and Reaping
Boundaries reinforce consequences. Healthy for everyone including nay sayer and supplicant.
Law 2: The Law of Responsibility
We have to take responsibility for our own growth and life ( and living it). Tough love! I think they could have beefed up the personhood aspect. We are lovingly created and let no man put us asunder as individuals. Something like that.
Law 3: The Law of Respect
We earn the respect with the angerless and firm "No". I don't really worry about others respect . Isn't approval a false motivation? Henry! John! No necesito su aprobacion! ( This is a great empowering song from Los Aterciopelados which negates this law...http://www.musictory.com/music/Aterciopelados/No+Necesito)
I do not need your approval
I have inside, a gauge
which marks satisfaction levels...
I do not need approval
or base metal to tempt me
Nor seek your understanding
and sweeten the ear
Law 4: The Law of Motivation
Twisted or veiled: loss of love, others� anger, loneliness,
Ask yourself is it motivated by a fear? payback, approval, identification with the other�s loss can sometimes be healthy
First be free of fear, then serve
Law 5: The Law of Evaluation
There is pain in choices as well as in confrontation. We may evaluate the pain our confrontation causes others but not the opportunities for our mutual growth and health. Look at both!
Law 6: The Law of Envy
THere were some sweeping generalizations in this one - its either boundaries or emptiness, lack of fulfillment and envy. The idea may have been - eventually you are going to be looking at these poles if you continue to cross boundaries.
Law 7: The Law of Activity
He tied this into spiritual activity of seeking, and asking. If you are watching this video, you probably are in the position to need help, so seek and ask. Actively pursue a healthier spiritual life.
My library had this for loan. Check yours before buying.

Electric Cruiser is a mash-up of a unicycle, Segway, laziness
The Mademoto Electric Cruiser has done the unthinkable and taken all of the beneficial purposes out of rollerskates, skateboards and other manual modes of rolling transportation. Thank of the Electric Cruiser as the front half of an electric moped, a juiced up unicycle or a severely gimped Segway. It is designed to happily drag you around while using rollerskates, skateboards or other modes of manual, wheeled transportation.
Obviously, the included flame decals on the Electric Cruiser demonstrate the badassery that one electric cruising individual embodies. It likely won't make you look any cooler and definitely won't help you exercise while skating, but at least it is electric, and therefore green!

remote accessThe ability to log onto a network from a distant location. Generally, this implies a computer, a modem, and some remote access software to connect to the network. Whereas remote control refers to taking control of another computer, remote access means that the remote computer actually becomes a full-fledged host on the network. The remote access software dials in directly to the network server. The only difference between a remote host and workstations connected directly to the network is slower data transfer speeds.

80 Jobs for Cobar Silver Mine
Pending development consent in March, Cobar Consolidated Resources anticipates mining at the open cut lead and silver mine south of Cobar by the end of 2011.
A development application has been lodged for the Wonawinta mine, planned for the property "Manuka", located 80 kilometres south of Cobar.
If consent is granted, Cobar Resources plan to mobilise quickly on the ground and to start preliminary earth works.
The company's plans to produce 2.5 million ounces of silver each year would place it amongst the top 15 silver producers in the world.
The project will include a processing plant and is expected to create between 60 and 80 ongoing jobs and contribute about $24 million into the local community.
Cobar is situated in the centre of New South Wales at the crossroads of the Barrier Highway and the Kidman Way and has excellent road, rail and air links to most of Australia's capital cities. With an area of 45,609 square kilometres, the Shire is almost the same size as the whole of Tasmania. It is home to approximately 5,120 people. The Shire's prosperity is built around the thriving mining – copper, lead, silver, zinc, gold – and pastoral industries.

The sun was shining down from a clear blue sky on the football players when the eight teams of 12-14-year old Swedish girls did their best on the pitch, hoping that their team would make it to the international final in Norway.
The teams had all qualified for the tournament by designing banners with messages of tolerance, diversity and respect for MTG United for Peace's cause. All the pupils had also studied ideas from former Nobel Peace Prize laureates, taught by a specialist teacher.
A lot of well-known personalities from MTG TV, MTG Radio and Viasat made the event a memorable experience for the girls. From a raised DJ stand the NRJ radio channel's big stars Knappen and Hakim, along with fellow talent Anton D´Nice entertained the crowd with a great selection of music throughout the day.
Champions League and Premier League anchor Ola Wenström from Viasat Fotboll was hosting the event and giving out the prizes. Fellow Champions League and Formula One reporter Frida Nordstrand was making sure the event received some proper air time at our football broadcasts. Hamburgers and chips were given out to all the hungry competitors who had a great time in between matches by competing in doing tricks with the ball and taking part in a quiz about MTG United for Peace's values.
The girls also challenged each other in kicking the ball hardest, where the speed of the shot got measured. They also participate in "Human Football", a crazy game based on old fashioned table football, where the participants got tied to a pole in a bouncy castle and tried to kick the ball as best they could from their somewhat peculiar position as it came past.
In the football final the 14-year old girls from Aspudden had a very hard and even match with Åsö, a game that ended with a 2-0-victory for Aspudden. This, apart from the honour at home, meant that Aspudden will go on to represent Sweden at the international finals in Oslo, Norway in October.
But the two closest beaten teams didn't have to sulk for long. In the next big thrill of the day the tournament's secret guest – the teenage idol and coach Danny Saucedo from the popular show "True talent" – told the teams finishing second and third that they were specially invited to visit a his live show. Minor hysteria, Beatles style, broke out amongst the girls and Danny Saucedo received at least 200 excited embraces, before he was able to leave.

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

|I'd like to wash my daughter's wedding dress by hand-- the fabric is 100% polyester, netting is 100% polyester or nylon, lace is 100% nylon. The color is off white, it has white beads, sequins, and rhinestones. There is a lace overlay over the body of the dress. There is a sash that is made of black 100% polyester fabric. The dress has a long train. The bottom of the dress is dirty. There is a stain where the chocolate fountain dripped down the front. A Tide to Go pen worked wonders on it and saved the day. There is a 1 foot slick of grease where -- Yikes! -- the train fell into the wheel of the carriage when she was boarding it to get to the ceremony. It was an outdoor wedding and there may be a cricket or two trapped in the lace. There is staining on the inside from sweat. I've read a few articles on line from others who have hand washed a wedding dress in the bath tub. I'm game for this because I think I can get it clean without the need for an expensive dry cleaner. Someone on line even said that the dry cleaner puts wedding dresses in a washer to clean them anyway. Someone said that wedding dresses may be washed with other garments at a dry cleaner to the unsuspecting customer. Some say that the dry cleaner may not use fresh solvents. Others say that solvents may leave behind smells. Others say that the dresses may not get totally clean. Others say that sequins turn yellow, and beading can be melted by the solvents.
So -- do it yourself-er that I am -- feels confident that I can do this. My question is about which cleaning agents would work without turning the fabric yellow or damaging any beads. When they say use mild detergent I would like to know what constitutes a mild detergent? I would like to know what solvent can get the black grease out without leaving residue? I am thinking of using Oxi-Clean along the bottom of the dress, and dawn liquid detergent on any visible food grease stains, a solvent (?) on the black grease stain, and a laundry detergent (?) for the final overall wash of the entire dress.
The dress has been sitting a week and needs to be washed and any advice that has been tired and tested would be appreciated! Thanks!
Follow-Up Postings:
|Mild means a neutral pH. Oxi is NOT neutral. It is pretty alkaline, I believe. I'd be worried about the alkalinity harming the sequins or rhinestones. Besides, although I'm a big fan of Oxi, I don't consider it great on greasy stains which is mostly what you have. So I wouldn't use Oxi as my first-line choice. Maybe Woolite.
Poly and nylon shouldn't have a problem with shrinkage, so you could probably afford to use HOT water, which is very helpful for grease and perspiration. Nylon can really be hard to remove stains from...Enzyme cleaners might be useful too (like Shout; test first; I think Tide To Go is enzyme-based). I would pretreat all the stains, in and out, with mild detergent and HOT water (maybe even hotter than tap). Be careful and test first.

|When I read about people spending a great deal of money, or working so hard to clean a wedding gown, I have to tell my story. After our wedding, I had my dress cleaned and put into a "Heritage Box". I stored it in our basement. A few years later, my then four year old son and a few friends were playing in our basement. I heard this shrieking laughter coming from downstairs, so thought I better check to see what they were up to. When I walked into the room they were in, I gasped when I saw they had found my wedding gown, and laid it on the tile floor, and were using it as a slip n slide! They all stopped and looked at me, waiting, I'm sure, for an explosion. All I could do was laugh! I only have boys, so I knew the dress would never be used again, but the story has given many a good laugh over the years! Good luck with the washing--I know a woman in our community who makes wedding gowns, and she always recommends washing them.

Even today after so many years, he guided Mumbai to a match win against the wily Haryana bowlers. Indeed sad that a man with still so much cricket in him had to call it a day! But his die hard fans like me, will always keep him in our hearts.

Lord Stern's 1.3% Error or Typo?
Roger Pielke Jr. points out that the online version of The Stern Report has quietly been changed and an erroneous 1.3% of GDP costs that hurricanes may cost the USA changed to a more believable 0.13%.
He says " now the Stern Review math does not add up". So it wasn't a mere typo that was corrected, but a figure that was relied on in calculations.
Eli Rabbett predictably says it was just a typo and the correct figure was used everywhere else in the paper.
Tim Worstall, no great friend of Lord Stern, channels Professor Tol, a knowledgeable critic of The Stern Report to agree it is just a typo.
It would seem it should be easy to work out the truth, Stern puts up some numbers, and then summarises the total effect. I'm not familiar enough with the report to easily work my way through it but I've tried. As far as I can see it is a bloody mish-mash of figures and claims all constrained by what-ifs. A key paragraph is this:
Costs of extreme weather alone could reach 0.5 - 1% of world GDP by the middle of the century, and will keep rising as the world warms.
• Damage from hurricanes and typhoons will increase substantially from even small increases in storm severity, because they scale as the cube of windspeed or more. A 5 – 10% increase in hurricane windspeed is predicted to approximately double annual damages, resulting in total losses of 0.13% of GDP each year on average in the USA alone.
• The costs of flooding in Europe are likely to increase, unless flood management is strengthened in line with the rising risk. In the UK, annual flood losses could increase from around 0.1% of GDP today to 0.2 – 0.4% of GDP once global temperature increases reach 3 to 4°C.
So world GDP damage goes up to 0.5 to 1%, on those figures Europe's damage will be well below average at 0.2 to 0.4% So somewhere else in the world must have a much higher than average damage to adjust the average up, considering the percentage of world GDP that Europe contributes. But it can't be the USA if the USA only weighs in at 0.13% for hurricanes (other natural disasters may also happen but are small beer in this account).
So where then is the section of the world economy that will be devastated to get his average up?
The EU and the USA make up over half of the world GDP so it would need to be large.
Stern seems to be silent on that point.
Of course if he had used the 1.3% for the USA then his maths easily adds up.
(The other frightening possibility is he made the same mistake that I nearly did when I was looking at it half asleep, adding up the 0.4 from the EU plus 0.13 from the USA to make 0.53....)
So my feeling is that the wrong figure was used and now corrected the report doesn't add up, but if you can prove it either way please tell us.

This paper proposes a multiple-membership generalized linear mixed model for ranking college football teams using only their win/loss records. The model results in an intractable, high-dimensional integral due to the random effects structure and nonlinear link function. We use recent data sets to explore the effect of the choice of integral approximation and other modeling assumptions on the rankings. Varying the modeling assumptions sometimes leads to changes in the team rankings that could affect bowl assignments.
Keywords: BCS; EM algorithm; fully exponential Laplace approximation; generalized linear mixed model; multiple membership

Hassanpour, Behrooz and Ismail, Mohd Mansor and Mohamed, Zainalabidin and Kamarulzaman, Nitty Hirawaty (2010) Sources of Productivity Growth in rainbow Trout Aquaculture in Iran: Technical Efficiency Change or Technological Progress? Aquaculture Economics & Management, 14 . pp. 218-234. ISSN 1365-7305
Full text not available from this repository.
This study investigates the sources of total factor productivity (TFP) growth in rainbow trout production in Iran using data envelopment analysis (DEA). The Malmquist index is then employed to decompose the TFP growth into technical efficiency change and technological progress. We utilized panel data of 207 trout farms in the country over a 5-year period from 2003 to 2007. The results of this study revealed that TFP growth of rainbow trout farming has an increasing trend over the period at an average annual rate of 3.7%. The trend of cumulative technological change is negative and tends to be contrary to cumulative technical efficiency change. Although there is no technological change or innovation on trout farming, the technical efficiency change was found to be the sole source for TFP change, whereas the mean of technical efficiency was estimated to be about 66%. Therefore, there is still a great relative potential for increasing trout production through improvement in managerial efficiency as well as technological progress. The study suggests that Iran also has considerable room to enhance trout aquaculture's TFP growth by shifting the production frontier with adoption of new technologies and improving innovation.

The Republican senator's embrace of marriage equality shows just how successful advocates have been in linking the personal with the political.
Rob Portman, Republican Senator from Ohio and a former frontrunner to be Mitt Romney's running mate, has declared that he now favors gay marriage. As Portman says in an op-ed for the Columbus Dispatch, his change of heart was personal:
That isn't how I've always felt. As a congressman, and more recently as a senator, I opposed marriage for same-sex couples. Then something happened that led me to think through my position in a much deeper way.
Two years ago, my son Will, then a college freshman, told my wife, Jane, and me that he is gay. He said he'd known for some time, and that his sexual orientation wasn't something he chose; it was simply a part of who he is. Jane and I were proud of him for his honesty and courage. We were surprised to learn he is gay but knew he was still the same person he'd always been. The only difference was that now we had a more complete picture of the son we love.
Portman goes on to make the conservative (and entirely reasonable) case for gay marriage. Personal liberty means allowing folks to marry who they want without government interference. Marriage and family are stabilizing institutions, and more people, gay or straight, joining stabilizing institutions is a good thing.
Related Story
The one thing Portman doesn't do, though, is explain why these conservative arguments seem reasonable to him now, when they didn't have force before. Or, rather, he does explain...but his explanation leaves most of the relevant moral issues hanging. Portman says he changed his mind because he looked at his son and wanted him to have a happy life. But the gay people to whom Portman was denying marriage before his conversion—those people were also someone's sons and daughters. Does Portman only care about suffering when it occurs in his family? Shouldn't he, at the very least, not just promulgate his new views, but apologize for his old ones—perhaps by pointing out his earlier failure of empathy, and promising to do better in the future?
Several writers have pointed out Portman's lack of contrition. Jonathan Chait for one, writes:
Portman ought to be able to recognize that, even if he changed his mind on gay marriage owing to personal experience, the logic stands irrespective of it: Support for gay marriage would be right even if he didn't have a gay son. There's little sign that any such reasoning has crossed his mind.
Chait concludes:
[W]hy should any of us come away from his conversion trusting that Portman is thinking on any issue about what's good for all of us, rather than what's good for himself and the people he knows?
I don't disagree with Chait here. I am pleased that Portman has come out in favor of gay-marriage, but somewhat depressed to find in him a public servant who appears to be lacking in self-awareness or empathy. I know that politicians live to disappoint...but still. It's disappointing.
What I think Chait misses, though, is the extent to which Rob Portman's intellectual and moral mediocrity points to an amazing strategic victory by the gay rights movement. As Chait says, Portman's reversal on this issue appears to boil down to pure selfishness. But...there are many issues where selfishness, no matter how pure, does not translate into political action. As just one example, there is, and has long been, a great deal of evidence that women are routinely given Cesareans for no medical purpose. Yet, while there are many mothers who are needlessly subjected to this major abdominal surgery, those mothers and their loved ones do not, for the most part, become advocates for laws legalizing midwifery, or for changes in birth practices. Even though these women have a personal experience of policy failure and injustice, that experience does not translate into political action, because they simply do not see those personal experiences in political terms.

You knew your way around a basement show, VFW, or the random church auditorium
Your bookbag was a mix of band patches, buttons, and Taking Back Sunday lyrics written in wite-out and Sharpie all over them shits:
You rocked Chucks or checkerboard Vans and absolutely beat them to hell
You spent many a summer day sweating out Gatorade and cheap vodka at Warped Tour
You knew how to up a pit right quick...
You had one of these hairstyles...
You and your friends had the freshest clothes...
You and your band took a "wacky" band picture
You had the heart of a hardcore punk from the city...even though you lived in the burbs.
You stayed up all night practicing your high jump
You openly rejoiced when Blink-182 beat the Backstreet Boys on "TRL"
You had a subscription to AP for far longer than you probably should have
Abercrombie? Hollister? American Eagle? Psh, yeah right. You had two go-to stores:
