Chicken change: A step forward or a sidestep?
How has the Church's view on homosexuality changed over time? In a post at T&S last year, Kaimi gave an overview of some of the major changes, and summarized them as follows:
Over the course of the past three decades, the church's stance has evolved from virulently anti-gay and homophobic, to its current soft-heterosexist approach of "love the gays, hate the gayness." It is a limited sort of shift, as the changes have largely involved rhetoric and attitude, while many of the underlying church doctrines have remained relatively constant.
I haven't systematically examined Church statements about women, but I think there may be a similar change going on in this area. My impression is that it used to be that women had their own roles and their own sphere and that's just how it was, but now there are General Authorities reassuring women at every turn that they're incredible and important. But like the change in views on homosexuality, like Kaimi said, it's been mostly in rhetoric and not much in practice. Borrowing Kiskilili and Eve's term, it could be called "chicken change."
I may be straying a bit from the framers' intent (and I hope they'll weigh in if I am), but as I understand it, chicken patriarchy is an attempt to soften people's perception of patriarchy by changing the rhetoric about it. It's not a change in practice: men continue to preside. It's not a change in the old rhetoric: it's still said that men are divinely designed to preside. Instead, it's an addition to the old rhetoric: egalitarian statements are mixed in with the old hierarchical statements. The most-discussed example is likely the part in the Proclamation on the Family that says husbands and wives are equal partners and that husbands preside.
I think the changing rhetoric on homosexuality is also a type of chicken change. As with changing views on women, our practice hasn't changed (or it has changed very little). The only ways to be in good standing in the Church if you're gay are still to remain celibate or marry an opposite-sex partner. And although some of the more recent Church statements about homosexuality have softened, the older, harsher, statements are still circulated. They certainly haven't been disavowed. This makes for a potentially confusing mix of official statements that take different stances on homosexuality.
Here's what I've been wondering about chicken change, though: Is it a sign of progress, however small? Or is it just a way of avoiding the issue? This question came up briefly on the recent fMh podcast on benevolent patriarchy/sexism, where one panelist said she thought benevolent sexism was an improvement on old-style hostile sexism but another panelist thought it didn't represent progress. (Sorry–I lost track of who was saying what. I think the conversation is about 48 minutes in.) I can see there are good arguments for both possibilities.
Chicken change might simply be a way to sidestep the need for change in practice. For example, there's some pressure on the Church for women to be ordained. Excluding them from the priesthood based on their sex violates widely-held egalitarian ideals. Rather than make this change, though, the Church simply dials up the "women get to lead a lot too" and "women's roles are just as respected as men's" rhetoric, in effect trying to redefine the current state of affairs as already being in line with egalitarian ideals.
On the other hand, chicken change might represent a step forward because the very fact that rhetoric changes and the current state of affairs gets redefined implicitly acknowledges the pressure for change. Continuing with the example of ordaining women, Church rhetoric that emphasizes how much women get to lead in the Church implicitly accepts the ideal that women should be leading in the Church (thanks for pointing this out, Kiskilili). Another reason that chicken change might represent progress is that it lays rhetorical groundwork for later change in practice. When change in practice (finally) happens, there are plenty of official statements that preceded it that can be pointed to as justification. This might make it easier for the change in practice to be accepted. For example, as I understand it, the 1978 revelation overturning the priesthood/temple ban was preceded by softening rhetoric, and it was widely and eagerly accepted. By contrast, the 1890 Manifesto was not preceded by any kind of change in rhetoric (nobody was saying "Oh, monogamy is as good as polygamy after all," before it.), it was to some degree ignored, and it ultimately led to several schisms splitting off from the Church.
I have always leaned more toward the view that chicken change is a net negative. It artificially reduces pressure for real change in practice without addressing the underlying problem. But now that I've considered the question more, I wonder if chicken change–frustrating as it is–might actually be a useful step in implicitly acknowledging the existence of pressure and in easing the path of later change in practice.
What do you think? Is chicken change a step forward, or a sidestep?
Please note: I aware that I am assuming lots of things here, like that the Church has changed in the past, that it will change in the future, and that change can be good. Please save arguments on these points for another day.

I tend to agree that chicken patriarchy is better than old-style hostile sexism, it is progress. But progress is not the same a change.
History shows that progress, progressive thinking, questioning, conversation, and involvement lead to change. I guess that (in this instance) I'd define progress as not moving but definitely looking forward. I think the attention to gender roles, the conversation around it creates progress because it gets people to THINK about what they have claimed without previously examining. And once you see something, it cannot be unseen. Sooner or later it cannot remain undealt with.
Maybe this sounds wishy washy, but I don't think the patriarchy, chicken or not can bury it head in the sand forever (to mix both fowl and metaphors).
Progress isn't change, but progress means it's harder to go back
Personally what I find so discouraging about chicken patriarchy (and its chicken relatives) is the denial and the obfuscation, which leaves us constantly stalled at the level of debating whether institutional injustice even exists. I sometimes fear that we're in grave danger of believing our own PR.
On the other hand, I suspect chicken patriarchy–obnoxious and condescending as it is–is also a harbinger of good things to come. We now feel the need to insist that women are equal to men and that God loves gays. In time our practices will shift in very delayed tandem with those of the cultures in which we live. We already more or less decided that in 1890.
Yep. Eve said it better.
I think "chicken change" is a net negative only if the alternative, "real, significant change" is a feasibility. In many cases, the former represents baby steps while the latter is more of a leap.
I think the church is much more comfortable taking baby steps. So yes, as unsatisfying as it may be, "chicken change" is preferable in certain instances where obvious change is very unlikely.
"Church rhetoric that emphasizes how much women get to lead in the Church implicitly accepts the ideal that women should be leading in the Church "
Importantly, President Hinckley spoke a number of times with the people putting together the BYU Womens Conference of the need the Church had to get more leadership from the women in the church.
So not only an acceptance of the ideal that women should be leading has been present for the last twenty years or so, but an effort to figure out how to obtain that and how to put it into action has been going on.
Obviously not succeeding as much as anyone would like, at present. But very much there.
Funny you should bring this up today. Usually, I tend to see improved rhetoric as a good thing, even when it is unaccompanied by action, because the verbiage reinforces ideals I believe in, and it seems likely to me that the majority of rational people will eventually notice the disconnect between the words and the actions and look for ways to reconcile the two.
However, this week I am feeling pretty fed up with all the chicken patriarchy clucking that had been all over the place in mormonville in response to a few news stories about LDS gender equity. The clucking begins with statements like, "women and men are equal! Women are important! We love women!" And end with "shame on you, complaining women! If you don 't like it, leave." I wonder if we are creating a community where calling people equal is more important than treating people equally. We don't even try to create the equality we claim to love. We just punish people who fail to use the pretty verbiage. /soapbox
I was the one who spoke of benevolent patriarchy as being a positive step forward from hostile sexism, and I think it does come from a good place. I'm not sure how well it came across in the podcast, because the conversation went back and forth a bit at this point, but I was trying to also emphasize that it was a bridge point, a step between hostile sexism and something more egalitarian. It's not somewhere we want to live permanently. Meredith and Liz, I believe, then discussed it relating it to a crutch, and how a crutch can be healing at one point, but a hindrance to it at another.

Former Catholic monastery, boys school now a popular winery
CANON CITY — For 88 years, the landmark Holy Cross Abbey monastery has been an eye-catching monument synonymous with the city and a fascinating part of local history.
Located at 2951 E. U.S. 50, the Gothic-Tudor monastery was built by Catholic Benedictine monks in 1926. At the time, the site was far removed from the bustling downtown area of Canon City.
At the abbey site, the monks ran a boys Catholic school, a college and a seminary.
In 1960, the abbey was in its heyday — employing 90 monks and serving 250 students. The school was known for its tough football teams and active music programs.

Nakhon Ratchasima
Travel Guide
In a nutshell
Once the capital of an autonomous kingdom, Nakhon Ratchasima has firmly accepted its modern role as the gateway to Isan. Many travellers never see beyond the bus station, but those who linger get a taste of a vibrant Thai city without a tourist in sight.
One of the biggest cities in the Kingdom, Nakhon Ratchasima, better known as Khorat, serves as the gateway to the Isan region. Attracting relatively little traveller attention, many view this city as an unfortunate stopover as they make their way further north or east.
On first glance this city does seem impenetrable -- virtually no English is spoken and tourists remain an anomaly -- but with a little patience and guidance, Khorat sneaks up on you as a destination in its own right. While its attractions may not merit a week's stay, you may just find yourself lingering that long as you eat your way through town and soak up the local culture.
Khorat is an amazing mix of old and new -- of tradition and innovation. In stark contrast to Bangkok's booming metropolis, Khorat is today much of what it was 50 years ago.
This slower paced city provides a glimpse into the architecture of authentic Thai life -- something lost elsewhere in the country as Thailand yields to the unending surge of tourist dollars.
While Khorat doesn't see many of those dollars, it certainly has reason to attract them.
Just three hours from Bangkok, Khorat is home to beautiful shrines, colourful markets, amazing food, and more recently, a broad range of lodging and dining options that cater to both Thai and western tastes while encompassing everything in between.
Alongside sparkling Buddhist temples and sidewalk restaurants with makeshift kitchens, hip eateries and boutique hotels are popping up. Where Khorat was once void of such choices, it's now possible to enjoy its cultural offerings without sacrificing comfort.
While far off the tourist track, Khorat has a lot to offer the traveller hoping to experience the real Thailand. A mix of tradition and westernisation, Khorat is teeming with the energies of both... and it works.

Our recommendations
The best way to approach Khorat is by simply allowing yourself to get lost in the narrow old streets and see what you might discover. Though tightly packed, the city isn't huge, and you can walk from one side to the other in a half-day.
While a dirt cheap yet remarkable hole-in-the-wall restaurant was never difficult to find, don't be surprised if a trendy air-conditioned cafe reminds you that this ancient city is gradually catching up with the times. Other subtle highlights include makeshift street markets, pad mee Khorat noodles, a temple with cave walls and a memorial to Khorat's courageous savior, Kunying Mo, where a constant stream of locals offer flower garlands and incense every day.
Further afield, enormous Nakhon Ratchasima province boasts one of Thailand's largest pottery villages at Dan Kwian, the haunting Khmer ruins at Phimai, the vineyards and farms of Pak Chong, and the untamed jungles of Khao Yai.

It really is the real Thailand
Even though it is billed as Thailand's second largest city, I was surprised how easy it was to get to know the place and to get around. Khorat has all the usual services like internet and laundry you'll need, and scores of great little hole-in-the-wall eateries and sidewalk noodle stands. You won't find many English-language menus however, with the possible exceptions of the VFW restaurant in the Siri Hotel, which has really cheap and quite good American food, and at the George & Dragon farang bar on the corner of Suranaree and Yotha, which has a great selection of English goodies. There may not be much to attract independent travellers to Khorat, but if you are passing through anyway, it is a good place to break up your trip on your way to other points in the northeast, or to catch your breath before heading back to Bangkok. Like is says above, this is the real Thailand.

The Reject Report Gives Bridesmaids a Loud WHOOOBox Office By Jeremy Kirk on May 13, 2011 | Be the First To Comment
Hello, May weddings. Hello, May wedding movies. Those maids of the bride sure are going to rake in a boat load of cash this weekend, but a certain God of thunder might have a thing or two to say about them taking his throne. There's also a 3-D movie coming out from the guy who directed Legion. You remember that movie, right? The worst of 2010 until Jonah Hex came out. Sorry, Jonah. We won't be invoking your name for too much longer. It's all part of the Reject Report this week. Now where's that bag of rice?

Dax Shepard doesn't know martial arts, but he wants to leave comedy behind in order to reinvent himself as an action star. How? By starring, writing, producing, and executive producing Brother's Justice. This trailer proves that Joaquin Phoenix shouldn't have tried to trick anyone with a fake documentary, because this honest look at Shepard attempting to get his fake movie made, getting in fights with Brazilian Jujitsu practitioner Bradley Cooper, and trying to get James Cameron on board looks far more entertaining (even if it might be less thought-provoking). If anything, it's finally gotten Ashton Kutcher and Tom Arnold into the same flick. Check out the trailer for yourself:

I've been trying to find a pizza dough recipe since I moved down here in the Florida Keys, I'm from Philly and the NE area of the country, so we know what good bread and pizza is! After at least 4 different pizza shops and 20 + recipes my search for a good dough was about exhausted, until I made this recipe. I thought I would have to wait for my pizza urges to be subject to substandard quality, (because for some weird reason the state of Fl. are only able to make Cuban bread. Well thank the bread Gods and you guys that came up with this recipe! I'm back in action making pizza and on of my fav's a Cheese Steak Stromboli that came out just incredible! I can't thank you enough!

This is really easy to make. Husband likes better than take out pizza! I use 2 cups AP flour and 2 cups bread flour. I add 2 Tblsp honey to the yeast stage and 2 Tblsp Italian seasoning to the rest of the flour. This makes 2 15" pizzas. If we just use one crust, I'll put the second on the freezer for next week. Doesn't take long to thaw out.

Nursing's External Advisory Board adresses changes, challenges to delivering high-quality care, education
The Misericordia University Department of Nursing's External Advisory Board recently met at the Westmoreland Club in Wilkes-Barre, Pa., to discuss the changes and challenges in delivering high-quality health care and health care education.
"The values and beliefs of nursing as a humanistic service continue to embody the role of the professional nurse as a future leader,'' said Cynthia Mailloux, Ph.D., chair and professor of nursing at Misericordia University. "The nurse as a leader utilizes evidence-based decision making while adapting to change in a multicultural society. Misericordia faculty members gain valuable insights by tapping into the wealth of knowledge available to them in regional nursing settings in order to help them better prepare students to transition into the varied professional practices.''
The health care and educational professionals who have volunteered to participate on the advisory board bring years of experience from varied backgrounds, including the clinical and academic fields. The advisory board discussed community-related topics to help members gain a better understanding of the health care needs of residents in northeastern Pennsylvania and to discuss how Misericordia University's Department of Nursing can help to address them.
Misericordia University features the oldest nursing program in the area and graduates more students in the health sciences than any other college or university in northeastern Pennsylvania. The University offers three undergraduate nursing programs: traditional, full-time nursing students; part-time accelerated evening program for adult students; and the RN-to-BSN Expressway Program. The undergraduate nursing programs are designed to meet the special educational and scheduling needs of adult and traditional students, leading to the Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) degree.
The MSN nursing program is designed to meet the special needs of current BSN registered nurses who desire an advanced practice specialization as a family nurse practitioner. MU also offers a post-master's certificate as a family nurse practitioner for nurses who already have an advanced clinical master's degree and who wish to change or expand their practice focus to primary care. Nurse practitioners are registered nurses with advanced education in health assessment, diagnosis and management of acute and chronic health conditions with expertise in health promotion and disease prevention. Graduate programming leads to the MSN and provides course work in a convenient part-time, one-day-a-week format.
The Department of Nursing at Misericordia University is introducing the online Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) degree program for the fall semester – the third doctoral program at the University – to accommodate the needs of busy health care professionals and in response to growing national need.
For more information about the nursing programs at Misericordia University, please call (570) 674-6400 or log on to www.misericordia.edu/nursing. Founded and Sponsored by the Sisters of Mercy in 1924, Misericordia University is Luzerne County's first four-year college and offers 34 degree programs on the graduate and undergraduate levels in full- and part-time formats. Misericordia University ranks in the top tier of the Best Regional Universities – North category of U.S. News and World Report's 2014 edition of Best Colleges and was designated a 2014 Best Northeastern College by the Princeton Review.
The Misericordia University Department of Nursing's External Advisory Board recently met to discuss the changes and challenges in delivering high-quality health care and health care education. Participating in the meeting, first row from left, are Professor Michelle Hawkins, Misericordia University; Karen Dougherty, R.N., Celtic Healthcare; Sandy Rochon, M.S.N., C.N.S., R.N., Commonwealth Health; second row, Janice Divers, M.S.N., R.N., Geisinger South Wilkes-Barre; Dr. Debra Viligi-Peters, Luzerne County Community College; Dr. Dana Clark, Luzerne County Community College; Mary Erwine, M.S.N., R.N., Erwine's Home Health & Hospice; Deb Sabalesky, B.S.N., R.N., Commonwealth Health; third row, Dr. Cindy Mailloux, Misericordia University; Dr. Annette Weiss, Misericordia University; Michele Swida, M.S.N., R.N., Geisinger Wyoming Valley, and Dr. Brenda Hage, Misericordia University.

[The rise in hate crimes] is clearly a provocation by the Zionist, Israeli press…They have raised the spectrum of Islamophobia so high that people feel like there's no restriction in their behavior and hatred towards Muslims."
This a new phenomenon that's growing higher and higher because the press has an unrelenting program of anti-Islamic hatred, day in and day out. It's not only Fox News but it's the whole Israeli news apparatus inside of the United States and around the world.
It seems that Islam is the religion that is under attack the most. What do you think is the responsibility of Muslims? Is it there anything that Muslims can do in general and trying to, as you said, counter what you called the Zionist media's influence over there?
The reason that the people respond to Islamophobia in the press is because they never hear the opposite side. We're dehumanized and made into inhuman pictures, so to speak, so we have to humanize our self. This is our, and I say Muslim, and people of conscious. It's our responsibility to educate the public.
I would like to say one thing on this issue of mosque burning. There has been over the decades no mosque burning in the African-American community because the African-American community is more familiar with Islam and Muslims, and usually one member of a family in Africa-America will have some association with Islam.

Not the Lakers' 14-1 record. Not their 46.6 shooting percentage. Not their 6.-1-plus rebounding margin. Nothing.
"No, not with the team that we have and the way we are playing," Gasol said.
Still, Gasol said there still are things the team needs to improve, such as defense, fewer turnovers and consistency, if they hope to acheive their goal of winning the NBA title. Things they need to shore up on as they face their first extended trip of the season.
The Lakers leave today for a three-game trip that includes back-to-back games Tuesday and Wednesday.
"It's human nature to get lacksadasical and for us to believe that things are going so right for us becaue they have in the past," Jackson said. "But we are only successful in the moment and you have to prove it again and again, especially in sports."

Arthritis, injury, bone disease, and torn muscles and tendons can cause pain, stiffness, and sometimes swelling in your shoulder. Then even simple movements become painful and difficult.
Osteoarthritis is a wearing away of the joint. The cartilage becomes cracked and pitted, and the socket may wear down. Eventually, the bone is exposed and may develop growths called spurs. Without a cushion of cartilage, the joint becomes stiff and painful and may feel as if it's grinding or slipping out of place when you move your arm.
Inflammatory arthritis is a chronic joint disease. The synovium thickens and forms a tissue growth (pannus) that clings to the cartilage and releases chemicals that destroy it. The joint may become red, swollen, and warm, and pain may radiate into the neck and arm. Over time, the joint may get stiff and the muscles may weaken from disuse. The bone may also be destroyed.
A fracture can occur when you fall on an outstretched hand or elbow. The ball and tuberosities break off, leaving the arm bone in pieces. A fractured shoulder is painful and may be black and blue and look deformed.
A number of conditions, including long-term use of steroids or alcohol, can cause the blood supply to the bone to be cut off. As the bone dies, it collapses. The shoulder becomes painful and movement is limited.
A chronic rotator cuff tear may lead to severe arthritis. As the ball rides up against the acromion, the joint becomes painful, stiff, and weak. Surgery can relieve the pain, but flexibility and strength may never be regained.

Basketbal and boxing are the two most popular sports in the Philippines, already for years. Also Biljart is popular because of the result of the Filipinos playing these sports on world level.
One upcoming sport and becoming more popular by the day is Football (or Soccer for Americans).
The 'Philippine national football team', nicknamed the "Azkals" (which is derived from "askal" or "asong kalye", the Tagalog colloquial term for "street dog"), is the national team of the Philippines and is controlled by the Philippine Football Federation (PFF).
Some years ago a national Filipino team was formed by inviting several Filipinos living abroad, half-Filipinos (with a foreign father or mother) and some Filipinos playing in the country itself. All players were experienced players, some of them even semi-professionals. And they are doing very well internationaly. The Philippines doesn't have a local competition yet, but I am told that they are trying to set one up. Football is also played in universities these days and in schools, to try to make this sport more popular.
My personal opinion is that Football is more a sport for Filipinos than basketball. Basketball requires tall people and Filipinos in general are not that tall. A football player doesn't need to be tall and the game is not difficult to understand or to learn.
Historically, football in the Philippines had already achieved its peak in the thirties and early forties. After the game was introduced by British sailors from Hong Kong in the 1900s, foreigners have dictated the pace of the game. Although the British and Chinese presence are being felt in Manila and other southern cities, the Spanish connection remains the sole influence that dominates.
Football has peaked in the Philippines several times, in the early 1900s to the 1940s and later died as the introduction of basketball, and the success of the country's basketball team, sparked fever among most Filipinos. Though several attempts to resurrect football in the Philippines have failed in the 1960s to the late 1970s, the Philippine Football Federation is still trying until this very day to once again resurrect football and to once again mount football as a national sport in the Philippines.
One notable player from the Philippines is Paulino Alcántara, a former Filipino/Spanish football player and manager who spent most of his playing career at FC Barcelona. He also played for the Catalan XI, the Philippines, and Spain. Alcántara made his senior debut for FC Barcelona at the age of 15 and remains the youngest player ever to play or score for the club. He also scored a remarkable 357 goals in 357 matches, making him the club's all-time leading goal scorer. Alcántara is also the first Filipino and Asian player ever to play for a European club.
In September 2006 the country fell to 195th on the FIFA ranking scale, its lowest ever. By the end of the year, the Philippines moved back up to 171th overall, after qualifying for the 2007 ASEAN Football Championship with a 4-1 win over Brunei. However, their failure to advance from the preliminaries dropped the country's ranking to 179th. The recent string of poor performances caused the Philippines to refuse to enter the qualification stages for the 2010 FIFA World Cup.
In 2011 they did much better and as of beginning March 2012 they are positioned 156, and for sure they will climb the ladder in the recent results in the AFC Challange tournament held in Nepal at the moment.
As of today they have reached the semi-finals of this prestigious tournament and the next match will be March 19 against Turkmenistan (the runner up from last year). The winner of last year, India, lost last Sunday from our Azkals ( 2 – 0 ); so there is a big chance that the Philippines will play the finals on March 19.
Those who are interested to watch: the games are broadcasted live in the Philippines at the Net25 channel.

19 March 2012 14:30 (Nepal time) 16:45 Philippines Time

Later this year the Philippine Azkals will also play in the Suzuki Cup held from 24 November – 22 December 2012 co-hosted by Malaysia and Thailand.

Ongoing treasure battle between US and Spain back in court

Gibraltar, National News • 2 Comments
• The Odyssey Marine has been ordered to return some 500 million euros of Spanish spoils

CONTROVERSIAL treasure hunting company Odyssey has told a US court it refuses to recognize Spain as the owner of a massive treasure bounty recovered from the 'Black Swan.'
In the latest court battle, the Florida based company called for a reversal of the 2009 decision that recognized Spain as rightful owner of the 17 ton galleon treasure.
"The district court erred in awarding Spain the coins. Without jurisdiction over the property, the court has no authority to dispose of the coins other than to return them to the party in possession at the time the matter came before the court," its lawyers said.
It comes after the company found more than half a million silver coins and hundreds of gold objects from a ship they code-named the "Black Swan," in May, 2007.
Spain immediately contested the treasure from the ship, which sunk in 1804 in the Straits of Gibraltar.
It argued that the shipwreck was a Spanish military vessel – not a private commercial ship – and was found in Spanish waters.
And in his ruling the judge confirmed that the Nuestra Senora de las Mercedes was a Spanish naval vessel and that any cargo is the "natural and legal patrimony of Spain."
But that ruling is now under appeal, with Odyssey arguing that Spain's claim is baseless in part because the Mercedes was a commercial vessel.
A decision could now take "some weeks or months," according to Odyssey.

Spain looted so much gold in time. Now it knows how it feels lol.

Fred, you know the Spanish can never be wrong and you forgot about the silver. In the time of the conquistadores silver had a higher value as it did for the Romans.
