You Are All Hypocrits!
ok. You speak of intollerance, but seem to have little tollerance for people of faith.
No, you're creating an ad hoc. I tolerate people, I am intolerant of the faith itself. In other words, I don't think you're a bad person, in fact you're probably a very good guy (I'm assuming you're a gentlemen here, and not of the other sex). That doesn't mean you don't ascribe to irrational beliefs.
I feel the same way about any irrational belief, not just God belief. People who think that Homosexuals should be executed for example..I hate that belief too. I am also against any sort of racism or belief that pits a human being at ill against another because of beliefs.
You waste untold hours of your life for the cause of telling people their is no God.
No, I spend my time ridding the world of a belief which causes wars and murders of millions of people throughout time. How many people have died in the name of God and killed in the same of God? This is what I am trying to stop.
How many people hate other people for their beliefs in other Gods? This is what I'm trying to stop.
Irradicating religion is not a waste of time, it's saving humanity.
And that because you fail to see that Jesus has done more to liberate every race, creed, gender, social class and and you name it than any man, woman or group ever has or ever will.
This is something you wish were true but really isnt. If this were true, we'd be all united under one banner, one God, and no racism would exist in any fashion. But that isn't the case, and you know it.
This belief is as much a myth as your God is.
You think you can prove that God doesn't exist.
Actually no. It is YOU who cannot prove your God to me, and that is why I do not ascribe to your fairy tale. One does not need to disprove a negative. The maxim is the proof lies on he who makes the positive claim. That would be you.
Good luck and stand in line. Don't let your last wordds be such as voltair, nor your legacy.
I don't think you realize that Voltaire was a deist, not an atheist. You've never even read him, have you?
Have a nice day,

Can someone tell me why the hypocrite accusation is always used by theists? They typically seem really insistant on that, but rarely point out what is hypocritical about being an atheist.

Yes. If I ever did a show, it would be on this topic. Theists are paranoid types.....paranoid types defend against psychological attacks (criticism) by projection. They are unable to deal with their own issues UNLESS they project them out onto someone else.
This is precisely why the most common attacks on atheists by theists are the following:
Atheists take things on faith
Atheism is irrational
Atheists attack people personally
Atheists are hypocrites.
Seeing as paranoid types project their flaws, their attacks are a golden key into their own psyche.....
Theists take things on faith
... which is irrational by definition
.... theism is a projection of the theist
.... therefore every criticism of theism feels like an attack on the theist.
And, since theists attack others for what are their own crimes, they are hypocrites.

That's one of the reasons I joined the RRS. Every time someone started talking about religion in my life I would either be repressing my comments out of politeness, or I would say something about their religion that I found questionable and they would freak out as if I'd just told them their mother was a whore.(see Kat's first post here) Yet, they felt that they could tell me that I was stupid for not believing in any gods.
Other people would occasionally bring religion up themselves, and ASK ME what my religion was, and when I answered, proceed to attack my position. It seems as if nobody is allowed to question religion, and I really liked how Sam Harris and Richard Dawkins addressed that in their books.
If anyone is a hypocrite, it's all those theists who attack our position and yet state that their own position should be left completely alone.
Here's part of your the post you referrenced that I found very pertinent:
Mr: CC: "B-but you said you'd studied religion! How can you not believe in it?"
Dave: "I did. I was raised atheist but reading the bible and studying different theologies merely confirmed the fact that there aren't any supernatural forces. All the arguments for god broke down, and the more i studied it the more I realized my beliefs were ENTIRELY rational. Belief in god doesnt make any sense. It just feels wrong, and logically, it just doesn't work."
Mr: CC: "B-but, but...(getting angry now) are you saying that MILLIONS of people for THOUSANDS of years are WRONG!?
Dave: Well, yeah.
Mr. CC: (totally pissed off)You are completely arrogant and presumptuous.
Then he stomped out of the store furiously.
Perfect example of what we are talking about. Who's arrogant and presumptuous here? The theist. He's projecting out his problems, and by doing so, providing a set of blueprints to his key flaws in regard to his theistic beliefs.
He presumes that everyone must be a theist
He arrogantly expects that others think and act like him.
When a person 'thinks' in theistic mode, they become irrational.

Nu Skin Enterprises' CEO Discusses Q2 2012 Results - Earnings Transcript
We use this same approach in the second half of the year with LTO launches in Europe of R2 and the Body Spa in Japan and South Korea.
So the momentum we're generating with the new region regional new product launches as a result of record level distributors and preferred customers nearly 900,000 at the end of the quarter. With each product launch, we're improving our overall trial and our penetration rates and our sales leaders are also becoming more familiar with the process and frankly they become believers when they see the successful launch process reflected in their commission checks.
The second headline I want to site for the quarter is that while we've been very successful with our ageLOC product platform, the best of ageLOC is still yet to come. AgeLOC products in the market today consist of the Facial and Body Spas, the ageLOC skin care transformation system, vitality and R2, which are both energy products. But the larger categories are yet to come. Weight management in 2013, next year is going to be big. And then we will ageLOC, our core nutrition product, which will also be significant in the subsequent product launch. Both of these launches have more revenue impact than anything we've done so far.
And as we further refine our launch process to reach deeper into a growing consumer and sales leader base, we have great ammunition to sustain growth for the foreseeable future. Now, of course, we're going to run into occasional quarters where comps are difficult because the timing of our launches may not always a line on exact annual anniversaries. So overall, we're very confident that we have a very sound pipeline for growth for the next several years.

Didn't do much for me.
I have pretty damaged hair, the ends are split, and I have quite a bit of breakage.
Mostly the ends are damaged and the rest is okay. I followed the directions to the T, and used the moisturizing stuff afterwards, then I deep conditioned.
The next day, my hair felt a bit dry, so I washed & conditioned, and then my hair felt a bit better, the breakage seemed lessened some. However, after a week or so, my hair was exactly the same as before. Perhaps using this every 6-8 weeks will show some result over time, but there was no instant miracle as some describe.
I tried to 2-minute keratin reconstructor as well, and it didn't do much, if anything, either.
I'll try the joico k-pack next, but I'm not expecting any miracles. I think I may just stick to doing a deep conditioning & joico pack weekly, not sure that I'll use this often, if at all, again.
I think I will try it on my extensions when they get all tangled & ratty, & see if it makes any difference on them or not.

Miracle product!!! I have been light auburn/strawberry blond for the past 10 years and decided last summer to go light blonde. When i decided to go back strawberry, i couldnt. My tips were soooo damaged that they wouldnt pick up color -at all-. So my hair would turn strawberry at the roots but fade the tips with-in 3 washes back to lt blonde. Pretty silly looking. That is when a friend suggested this. I used it once and it didnt work (i now know i used it wrong!). Then someone else suggested it and told me how to use it (since i can not follow simple directions apparently). I doused my hair with it with a spray bottle, left in for 20 or 25 minutes and colored hair. I used preference light reddish blonde. All of my hair was one, beautiful color! And it still is, many washes later. Also my hair is noticably stronger. Weeeeeell worth the cheap price!

I use this everytime I color my hair. It is about 2 bucks at Sally's for the small bottle. I use it when I am touching up or doing an all over color. My hair can pick up red very easily and using this makes sure I get exactly the color I want from root to tip - it is even and gorgeous. I have well water and use alot of clarifying treatments that can strip color however this seems to make my color last longer and look more vibrant. I usually apply it before I color and wait 20 minutes, then blot then color as usual. I have added to the actual hair coloring mixture but that makes it a bit runny and hard to deal with. Also I have hair down a bit past my bra strap and 1 bottle seems to be just right, so if you have longer hair than that get the bigger bottle or just buy two smaller ones so you will get adequate coverage. I agree that if you use this before you color it WILL pick up color very easily so do a strand test or buy a shade lighter than normal. All in all this works, it is cheap, it keeps my hair color even and bright, it is easy to find, it doesn't dry my hair out and I will always buy this one!

This actually worked on me!! I bleached out my hair completely to near platinum and decided to go back to a very warm light brown. I'm NO expert but I did tons of research and decided to follow the advice I'd gathered. I bought the neutral protein filler, dampened my hair then sprayed on two ounces of this filler all over my hair. I combed it through and left it on for 20 minutes per the directions. I then blotted my hair just a touch dryer and applied Natural Instincts light auburn (apply a red semi-perm on bleached hair if going back to brown). And I'll be dang but from root to tip, the color is all even!! I'm still amazed. My hair is so soft and feels so much stronger now.
I will be applying this filler again over the weekend and allowing it to dry in my hair before applying the permanent hair colour. This filler can also be mixed with water and used as a leave-in conditioner. Smells good, too, almost like bubble gum.
EDIT: I allowed the filler to dry in my hair and then applied the golden brown permanent colour. I left colour on for 25 minutes and the results are GORGEOUS!!! Even from tip to tip and so gold and vivid. There is a red tint to the golden brown due to the semi-perm red I had to use to keep it from turning out like mud. I will use this every time I colour from now on. "Hairdresser's insurance" indeed!!!

Well i think mine is more of a question than a review i think this is a great lproduct however my hair was bleached almost white blonde with dark brown roots, I lput the filler on and then the color and it helped pretty good but there is some green to the color can i had some more filler on today and more color to see if it will color that or is that the wrong thing to do?

Wow! This product saved me from having green hair! I had medium blond hair and 1 inch roots of light brown. I was wanting to go back to the brown because the blond up keep was damaging my hair. I applied this from the ends up and left on for 15 mins then applied my color (light brown) the results were great. I am pleased with this product and I am also so happy I found this thread to help me decide how to change my hair from light to dark.
Age: 19-24
Skin: Combination, Fair, Cool
Hair: Brown, Wavy, Medium

I have bought this many, many times. My hair is pretty damaged from over-coloring and bleaching, and using the filler is the only thing that keeps my hair able to pick up color. Just follow the instructions and you should be okay. The amount you need to use depends on how much hair you have and how long it is. You just need to use enough to completely saturate it.
The easiest way to apply it is with a spray bottle. Otherwise I end up dripping it everywhere. Also, when you select your dye color, be sure to pick one that is LIGHTER than what you want as the filler will make your hair pick the color up really well and it will turn out darker than it normally would.

This is a wonderful product for all the reasons listed below. Yet, it is also a wonderful CHEAP protein treatment! If this wasn't enough already, if you use the tinted fillers, you can color refresh! I use red-red to color refresh my bright red hair. LOVE IT!

A few weeks ago I bleached my hair and used Special Effects Joyride, and I was getting tired of fushia hair. My hair was extremely porous because of the bleaching so I tried this protein filler, poured it into my hands and applied that way. My hair is ultra-short so I only used 1/3 of the small bottle. I left it on for 15 minutes and my hair was already drying (which was OK, the corrective color I chose said to apply to dry hair). My corrective brown color came out beautiful and even, and didn't pull darker in my bleached areas. I would definitely use this again.

For years, I've tried coloring my hair at home when I don't have the money to go to the salon and have NEVER EVER liked the result and then had to spend even more money correcting my mistake than I would've paid just having it done the way I wanted. This weekend, I was in the exact same spot financially as in the past, so I decided to do a little research on getting good at-home results when this product came across my path...boy am I glad I did...my natural, root color is medium to dark, ashy blonde and I have been highlighting it light blonde for years, but I was getting sick of the old yellow, cheap-looking blonde highlights and wanted to get back to as close as my natural color as possible. In the past, when coloring at home the roots ALWAYS turned out a different color than the highlighted ends (coloring on top of blonde highlights is a scary and unpredictable business). I cannot believe it, but this product completely eradicated that problem! I am in awe really, and I am not easily impressed at all, ever! The color is even and beautiful from root to tip. I know that it was this product that made the difference b/c it's the only thing I did differently this time around. I followed the bottle directions for "when tinting", NOT the "time saving method". After the 20 minutes was up, I just blotted my hair with a towel. Then I mixed Ion Color Brilliance liquid color in 8N, 20 vol developer, and threw in a small packet of Ardell UnRed (since I ALWAYS pull red and hate it), left it on for 30 minutes, rinsed, conditioned, rinsed again, and voila! I am shocked...I did this myself??!! It's beautiful - it's even from root to tip and it's NOT red (ladies if you pull red, try the UnRed and please don't freak out by the color turning black, it works!)...I might never go back to the salon again! Oh, and I bought EVERYTHING at Sally's Beauty Supply for what my mom likes to call 'chump change' :)

Marc Antoni - Attempts
Artist: Marc Antoni
Featuring: Theo Martins, Laws
Producer: The Trackslayerz
Album: Overnight EP
Avg Rating: 3.5 ( 13 votes )
It's been said so many times by so many people that calling it a cliché would be itself a cliché, but it's true: the road to success is almost invariably paved with failed Attempts. Whatever preceded Marc Antoni's grand entrance into the Booth, however, it looks like the first feature just might be the charm. Making its world premiere on our front page, this cut has all the pieces in place for a banger: a driving, piano-led beat by the Trackslayerz, a catchy hook, even guest bars by a few reader faves. Boldly, the Bostonian emcee saves his verse for last, allowing two Booth regulars to build up anticipation: Rhode Island's Theo Martins and Panhandle State repper Laws (both freestyle series alumni) blaze the joint's front two-thirds in engagingly braggadocious fashion, before handing the mic to Antoni for a determination-drenched closer. In his intensely-flowed final 16, he assures listeners that he's not about to quit anytime soon: "My intention is to stay here / like Visine, I hope my statement was made clear." Has Marc hit it out of the park on his first at-bat? If you think so, you won't want to miss the freshness in store on his Booth-sponsored Overnight EP, set to hit our mixtape page May 6.

DEFINITION of 'Statistically Significant'
The likelihood that a result or relationship is caused by something other than mere random chance. Statistical hypothesis testing is traditionally employed to determine if a result is statistically significant or not. This provides a "p-value" representing the probability that random chance could explain the result. In general, a 5% or lower p-value is considered to be statistically significant.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Statistically Significant'
This concept may sound confusing and impractical, but consider a simple example - suppose you work for a company that produces running shoes:
You need to plan production for the number of pairs of shoes your company should make in each size for men and for women. You don't want to base your production plans on the anecdotal evidence that men usually have bigger feet than women, you need hard data to base your plans on. Therefore, you should look at a statistical study that shows the correlation between gender and foot size.
If the report's p-value was only 2%, this would be a statistically significant result. You could reasonably use the study's data to prepare your company's production plans, because the 2% p-value indicates there is only a 2% chance that the connection between foot size and gender was the result of chance/error. On the other hand, if the p-value was 20%, it would not be reasonable to use the study as a basis for your production plans, since there would be a 20% chance that the relationship presented in the study could be due to random chance alone.

I think the Rooney's threw the year in their statement for a reason. They could have said "Tomlin is our coach for the long term" or something like that but they didn't. They said "Tomlin's job is safe for 2014" and they added the year in that statement on purpose.
I don't know how many games.... .500? playoffs? I don't know. Obviously, I think the Rooney's have a specific # in mind. I think there are a couple other variables in the mix as well.
I just don't put much credence in the year being attached to the statement. The Rooneys have proven that they are patient. I don't see anything happening here that hasn't happened before under other coaches. I just don't think they'll make a knee jerk reaction because of a couple average years.

> Breakfast ideas for allergic kids?
I really need some inspiration here. My kids are allergic to, well, everything, um, literally...
So, our survival plan is basically to cut out the major offenders and I try not to give too much of any one type of food in the course of the week. We had been on a strict elimination diet for a while, but that and other life issues left me so stressed that DH would find me crying over my menu plans in the middle of the night. There came a point where I just couldn't take it anymore.
I think we do pretty well most of the time, but breakfast is a huge problem for me. I need good ideas for energizing breakfasts that will help to sustain blood-sugar levels in active little people.
I can't cook in our house right now. I cook in another building, one that make
sick because of
allergies, so it needs to be things that can be cooked quickly and easily. Food that can be made in the crock pot is a huge plus because I do actually have a crock pot in the house.
I need suggests that fit the above requirements and are also: gluten, mold, casein, egg, and soy free. Any thoughts??
How about rice pudding with raisins and rice milk?
I get this brand of cereal:
The Koala Crisp, Gorilla Munch, and Panda Puffs should be gluten free and we use rice milk.
Ooops, The Panda Puffs aren't soy free. However, the Amazon Frosted Flakes are gluten free, too (I just haven't see them in any local stores.)
Cream of rice is found next to the cream of wheat. You can add chopped fruits and other stuff. I have made muffins from cream of rice for my boyfriend, before he passed. He loved them and gobbled them up
They taste like cranberry muffins and were good enough for anybody to eat - nobody would be able to tell they're rice based. I mix applesauce, 4 ripe bananas, 1 packet cream of rice, and add some cinnamon, dried cranberries, and perhaps a splash of orange juice and vanilla extract and bake them in a muffin pan.
You can also make a myriad of things with potatoes, which is something that is breakfast, lunch or dinner friendly. Sweet potatoes pack more vitamins than plain potatoes. A combination of protein and veggies are a great breakfast combo. You can find organic sausages made from chicken, turkey, pork, etc, with less yucky stuff than regular sausage. Don't forget that 'grits' are made from corn. That's an acquired taste, but you can do a lot with grits. Well made grits with some flavoring is good. The cousin of grits is Polenta - you can find readymade Polenta in the grocery store in tubes. You may need to think a little out of the box with breakfast and not think in terms of just sweet typical American foods.
True corn flakes, amarynth flakes, and true buckwheat can be used (buckwheat is gluten free). Some people have no problems with oats, but that's under hot debate. People on gluten free diets can have quinoa, amarynth, buckwheat, teff (Ethiopian grain), tapioca, and anything from corn, potatoes, and rice. You can buy rice flour and sometimes tapioca flour at any Asian grocery store. You can tweak recipes and make breads or thicken sauces that way.
Just check the back for wheat, barley or rye and you should be okay.
We do cereal, fresh fruit, leftover dinner warmed up, safe breads toasted, pancakes (they're fine w/out milk and eggs, any flour you can use will make good pancakes), smoothies.
For blood sugar I always make sure we have fat and protein (and fiber in the case of fruit too). Sooo...things for breakfast here might be hot cereal (millet, amarynth, buckwheat--which despite the name is gluten free). I make it with fruit and blend it all together for smoothness. Add in some ghee (which is casein free) or coconut oil for fat. I also soak though and wouldn't do it otherwise and that would generate mold. To be honest, we don't have time for that in the morning so it is generally a lunch. I don't lock myself into notions of set meals being set things.
Sausage as a previous poster said can be made in a healthy way--you do have to check for gluten and casein and soy but we have some that has none of that. That and fruit baked in ghee or oil might be a nice breakfast. We had chicken sausage for dinner last night!
The biggest and easiest suggestion I've found is smoothies and that is our standard breakfast--free of all of the above. You have to think outside the normal smoothie box though when you are dairy and soy free. We are dairy and soy free too--and also free of all those allergens except I do egg once a week and I would drive myself nutty trying to eliminate molds as anything not cooked up fresh has mold--including the fruits you buy at the store. I do pastuerize (cook) everything just prior to eating it. So, I cook the ingredients to almost boiling prior to mixing it to reduce mold issues and I'm not sure how effective that is which is the only hesitation I have in recommending this. Anyway, I add in a base (carrot juice, coconut milk, whatever works for your crew) and then vegetables and/or fruits and actually I do chicken or another meat as well for a protein. Avocado is a protein source that I use too (banana has protein but we don't tolerate that). Both of the last two thicken and help things blend as well. You could use another protein source that your children tolerate instead. If the base is strong what you add isn't noticeable at all. I do a fat too--generally olive oil (only if it is a cool drink), rice oil, coconut oil, or ghee (both of the last two must be a warm drink) for fat. Rice oil is tasteless. My boys like the coconut oil taste and don't seem to mind the olive or ghee as long as I don't over-do it. My point is smoothie type drinks can be your friend in all of this!
You may know this but certain rice milks have issues with gluten cross-contamination so check that out carefully.
I would encourage you to think outside the box in terms of breakfast foods. Lots of people do soups for breakfast (very crockpot friendly). There is nothing that says breakfast has to be eggs or pancakes or cereal based. So I'd just think of it as another healthy meal and forget the notion of breakfast!
By the way if you have any tasty recipes that are free of your allergens and also don't have tomato I would love to know! I'm one of those tears over menus people too...

Washington County (Ore.) 911 center are testing out exercise treadmills at their consoles to improve their concentration, stress level and health.
NBC News says their investigation found that 60 percent of 911 callers can't be located by the comm center handling the call.
A consulting company has delivered its final report on the operation of the Stanislaus (Calif.) Regional 911 center, identifying a wide-ranging list of 36 recommendations related to staffing, workload, budget and operations, and providing a wide-ranging list of 36 recommendations. The report by Matrix Consulting focused on governance, how participating agencies are billed for services, and explored replacement of the center's computer-aided dispatch (CAD) software. The study is the second one made in the last year—a study (pdf) by Jackman Associates last year was widely criticized as supporting the agenda of Modesto police chief Galen Carroll, who has been openly critical of the center's performance. The previous study concluded that the center's 39 dispatchers were paid more than comparable center in nearby counties, and that opinion later affected contact negotiations with the dispatchers. The new study recommends keeping the current 12-hour shift configuration, revising how radio and call-taking tasks are handled, but maintaining current administrative and supervision levels. Download (pdf) the entire 177-page Matrix study for the details.
Officials in Clark County (Wash.) say they are reviewing how dispatchers handled a neighborhood shooting incident and a subsequent multi-agency SWAT response that led to an innocent man being shot by officers who were confused by conflicting radio traffic. The county district attorney has already cleared the officers of any wrong-doing, but the injured man's attorney says he's planning legal action. Last month a county resident shot a neighbor over a long-running property dispute, and then fled into a nearby woods. Meanwhile, an area resident was enroute to his security guard job, noticed the suspect's car parked in an out-of-the-way area, and stopped to investigate. He dialed 911 to report the car, but dispatchers neither warned him of the original shooting or the nearby police search for the suspect. They also didn't ask for the caller's description, or then warn SWAT officers in the area about the caller's presence near the suspect's car. As the search continued, officers spotted the man who dialed 911, believed it was the shooting suspect returning to his car, and opened fire. The caller was armed with a handgun and fired back, believing someone from a nearby overpass was shooting at him—he never heard police give any warnings. He was shot in the leg by the officers, and dialed 911 again to report he had been shot. Later in an ambulance, the caller heard officers say, "Is this the guy we shot?" Only then did he realize that police had shot him. The comm center investigation should be complete within a week, officials say. Read more about the incident here, and listen to 911 calls here.
A major 911 industry association has filed comments with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) urging them to adopt rules that split the responsibility for providing back-up power for VoIP telephone service so subscribers still have a way to dial 9-1-1 when their electric service is interrupted. Last month the commission acknowledged that many households have switched from copper-wire telephones to IP-voice telephone service, usually in connection with how they obtain Internet service for their computers. The FCC also noted that many carriers are retiring copper wire service because of its high installation and maintenance costs, and limited flexibility for providing advanced services. Considering public safety, the FCC proposed rules that would require carriers to provide electrical power for their modems and associated gear that provides telephone service, to maintain 911 service during outages. In its comments, the National Association of State 911 Administrators (NASNA) suggested providing 24 hours of back-up power, instead of the eight hours proposed by the commission. The group also noted a distinction between those who have already switched to VoIP and those forced to change as copper is retired. "The former should already be aware of the limitations of their service," NASNA said, "and should have taken personal responsibility for ensuring they have extra batteries or an alternative means of communication during a power outage. The latter group would have no alternative means of communication after the loss of copper, and the carrier should be responsible for initially providing a back-up power source, NASNA said. The group said back-up power should apply to "minimally essential communications," including outgoing 911 voice calls and texts, incoming emergency alerts and warnings, and outgoing calls to 211 and other community services. Download (pdf) FCC's Notice of Proposed Rulemaking here, and the group's comments here.
Sources have told The Wall Street Journal that Motorola is considering the sale of its Solutions division, which includes the full line-up of two-way public safety radio and associated products. The WSJ broke the story Friday evening, and said the company is in the early stages of exploring a possible sale. The division is the only remaining unit of the original Motorola Inc. company that has marketed a wide range of electronic products since its founding in 1928. The division generated revenues of $5.9 billion in 2014. It's not clear what company or private investment firm might want to purchase the unit.
A report by New York City's top management investigator has found the city's 911 upgrade project has been seriously mismanaged, has passed $2 billion in costs and is not close to being completed. The project began in 2004, and last October the Department of Investigation (DOI) warned the project was out of control and $700 million over budget. The latest report is scathing in its criticism of almost every aspect of the project, including that managers misrepresented the project's status to former mayor Michael Bloomberg and did not properly supervise outside constructors. A former Bloomberg aide criticized the report before its release, claiming the 911 upgrade was a "tremendous success," and that the DOI report was neither "thorough" or "objective." Among the criticism were that the project lacked vision and planning, was ill-defined, set unrealistic expectations, had inadequate staffing and had no central decision-making authority. Download (pdf) the entire 112-page report, and read an editorial calling the 911 project an example of "epic incompetence."
A 911 dispatcher in Galax (Virg.) answered a scared mother's prayers and helped save her child's life by guiding the little boy's family through CPR—even though the center doesn't provide EMD instructions. Seventeen-month-old Aidan Walker had been under the weather and was taking a nap with his grandmother when he suddenly had a seizure and stopped breathing. Read more here.
During a routine meeting of an obscure Federal Communications Commission (FCC) task force last week, one of the agency's commissioners raised an amazing possibility—the nation's 5,900 public safety answering points (PSAP) might be consolidated and reduced to just three. Whether that's even physically or politically possible wasn't explored by commissioner Michael O'Reilly, but it certainly raised the eyebrows of attendees at the Task Force on Optimal Public Safety Answering Point Architecture (TFOPA) meeting. As recounted by Urgent Communications, O'Reilly told the meeting "By some estimate, the current structure would be able to operate at optimal efficiency with as few as three [PSAPs] nationwide." He didn't explain if he meant physical or virtual PSAPs, the latter a possibility after the NG911 project is completed over the next 10 years. Watch the video of the entire 2 ½-hour meeting here.
As part of the National Football League's "No More" campaign against domestic violence, the league will run a 30-second commercial during this Sunday's Super Bowl featuring a "trick" 911 call. In the commercial, a woman pretends to be ordering a pizza while talking to a 911 calltaker, presumably in order not to alert the person who she fears. Such incidents have actually occurred, and have been one element of the adoption of text-to-911 technology that is slowly rolling out across the United States. [click to continue…]
After a year of non-stop lobbying, political rhetoric and committee work by public safety organization, today the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) approved regulations that will increase the reported accuracy of 911 calls, particularly for calls made from indoors and above the ground. FCC said they gave "considerable weight" to the consensus agreement reached between the wireless carriers and APCO/NENA to "establish clear and measureable timelines for wireless providers to meet indoor location accuracy benchmarks, both for horizontal and vertical location information." Acknowledging the technical hurdles of improved locations, the FCC said their requirements allow enable wireless providers to choose "the most effective solutions and allow sufficient time for development of applicable standards, establishment of testing mechanisms, and deployment of new location technology." The Order takes into account an agreement reached last year between the four largest wireless carriers and two biggest public safety groups, and a later amendment, But it doesn't meet the standards of the Find Me 911 coalition that was lobbying for even tighter accuracy rules. In a statement, FCC chair Tom Wheeler says the coalitions accuracy concerns were addressed and reassured, "We will have better data than ever before about carriers' location accuracy performance, and we will hold them to account if they do not live up to their commitments." Wheeler added, "Let there be no mistake—we are establishing a floor, not a ceiling. It is a beginning, not an end." Update: On Feb. 4th the FCC posted the official Report & Order (pdf) outlining all of the new location regulations, which includes a timeline of how the new requirements were developed. more reaction
In the face of on-going staff shortages at the Flint (Mich.) police department, a consultant has recommended taking a drastic step—stop responding to any incident that isn't a crime in progress or an immediate life-and-death emergency, and refer all other callers to the city's Web site to make a report. The consultants also recommended moving police dispatching services to Genesee County's comm center. The intent is to free up more patrol and investigative time to handle a rate of violent crimes higher than Detroit, and reduce a constant backlog of calls for service. At its core, the problem is caused by the department's philosophy that "no call is considered too minor to warrant a response and no case is too small to warrant an investigation," the consultant said. Discretionary patrol time per hour has increased from three minutes per hour in 2010 to 15 minutes in 2014 through various staffing changes. But the consultants say there are no more easy steps to improving that figure to 30 minutes per hour, the recommended level. Download (pdf) the consultant's full report, including the comm center recommendations (p. 64).
A member of Congress has fired off a letter criticizing a proposal to add Russian navigation satellites to the technologies that would help locate American 911 callers, leading to a bizarre newspaper article and a sharp rebuttal by public safety groups working to improve 911 location accuracy. The letter by Rep. Mike Rogers (R.–Ala.) is the latest missile fired among public safety groups, which brokered a consensus agreement to improve location accuracy, and the Find Me 911 coalition that is lobbying for alternative technologies. Rogers wrote a letter to the Secretary of Defense and the Director of National Intelligence saying it would be unwise for the nation's 911 network to rely on Russian technology. He also said the U.S. should continue to use "isolation and counter-leverage" against Russian to protest that country's political and military actions. But Rogers' letter sparked an article in the Washington Times newspaper that both mis-describes the consensus plan, but also completely misunderstands how the global positioning system of satellites and 911 networks work. Update: On Jan. 21st the four major cellular carriers have filed an amended agreement with the Federal Communications Commission that overcomes several of the criticisms of the original plan. details
A Phoenix (Ariz.) police dispatcher calmly talked a suspect in a violent murder to surrender after he dialed 911, but police are also investigating how a 911 call was handled one day earlier by a child, reporting the suspect was "mentally unstable." At the end of a remarkable eight-minute 911 call with an unnamed calltaker, Andrew Ward walked out of convenience store and was taken into custody. Police found Ward's 12 year-old brother back home, repeatedly stabbed to death. One day earlier, a young girl dialed 911 from Ward's home to tell a calltaker that Ward had just arrived home. "We're afraid he bought something that could possibly harm us," the girl said. However, the calltaker told the youth that, "I can't guarantee that (officers are) going to go in and search his room because he's not doing anything." The girl mentioned that her mother was also home, but the calltaker didn't ask to speak to the mother, or ask other questions that might have provided more background on Ward's behavior. The girl ended the call by saying, "OK. I guess I'll have to wait till he does something." Police officials declined to comment on the first 911 call, but did issue a statement. "Our operators 'screen' several million calls per year and follow our policies, directives," it said, "and their experience to dispatch officers when they believe it is necessary. If we all had the benefit of hindsight, of course we would have liked to seen a different outcome in this case." Listen to the child's call here. Also listen to the suspect's 911 call, during which the talented calltaker convinces a stranger to leave his cellular phone with the suspect so she can maintain contact with him as officers responded.

If you're a regular blog reader then you'll know that 95% of my posts are weddings and engagement pictures. Once in a while I like to surprise you all with some super cute babies! I thought I'd recap some of the baby pictures I've taken recently.
I'll start with Katie and John. They were married at Wollaston Golf Club and just welcomed baby Maeve to their family. Maeve made the cutest little squeaking noises throughout our mini photo session!
A couple of weeks ago I visited with LeeAnne and Josh in Wells, Maine. I was their Laudholm Farm Wedding Photographer and it was a blast to see them all settled in their new home and meet baby Benjamin
And then just last week I made my way to Hingham to meet up with Jo-Ann and Ben whose wedding I photographed at Glen Magna Farms. This time it was time to meet baby Josephine.
Newborn babies are obviously fairly unpredictable so when Josephine decided it was time for lunch I played with the cats :)
I hope that satisfied any cravings you might have had for cute baby pictures! If you'd like to schedule your own newborn or family photoshoot then email me at email@example.com for pricing and other information!
Next up will be some rather exciting "Best Of" posts!
And one last housekeeping announcement, if you're procrastinating on ordering any professional prints then WEDNESDAY DEC 18th is the last day if you'd like them to arrive in time for the holidays!

St Catherine of Genoa + State Room Boston Wedding Pictures :: Marianne + Matt
Tuesday, December 9, 2014
Just last month I photographed the last wedding of 2014 and what a way to go out! Each year I like to photograph ~20 weddings but somehow between sisters of previous brides and previous bridesmaids and other craziness I ended up at 32 weddings over the year! It was awesome but I was spread a little too thin so 2015 will be strictly 20-25 weddings tops!)
Rest assured although weddings are over for the year I have ALL sorts of great little articles planned for the blog over the winter - Best Ofs, Education Articles and other good stuff. But enough rambling, let's get to Marianne & Matt's wedding:
Audrey and I started the day at the Millennium Boston Hotel for the getting ready fun. Check out the classic cream and navy wedding stationery:
Hair and make up fun was underway, loving Marianne's elegant and timeless hairstyle:
Marianne was helped into her wedding dress by her mother Terri and her MOH/cousin Diana. If your dress has any kind of little tiny buttons then having a crochet hook will make the whole process much easier and faster (not to mention not messing up your manicure!)
Marianne opened her letter and gift from Matt and barely held it together:
Frank, Marianne's dad, seeing his daughter in her wedding dress for the first time:
Marianne's parents surprised her with a letter and gifts including a diamond bracelet and again Marianne nearly lost it but held it together!
I always ask each couple to fill in a short pre-wedding planning document and one of the questions is about VIP guests, I was so excited to see that Marianne and Matt listed their grandparents and explained how close they were to them. Here's Marianne's grandmother Maryann arriving on the morning of the wedding!
Meanwhile Audrey was over with Matt, the guys and Rhett who was in contention for the "cutest ring bearer" award:
This image of Matt helping his Godson Rhett with his boutonnière is one of my favorites:
Marianne had Rhett deliver her letter and gift to Matt. The watch was carefully set to 2:30pm (the time of the wedding ceremony)
We made our way to Saint Catherine of Genoa Parish in Somerville, MA for the wedding ceremony:
I'll let the ceremony pictures speak for themselves:
The clocks went back the week before the wedding so we knew we were racing against the clock to take post-ceremony pictures in the daylight. Luckily everyone hopped into the limos promptly and we made it to Christopher Columbus park with just enough time!
Relaxed yet mantel worthy family pictures:
Marianne and Matt pushed cocktail hour back a little bit so they would still have time to join their friends and family for champagne and hors d'oeuvres! We wondered around the park and found the last of the foliage and took advantage of the sun going down.
Back at The State Room Boston (one of my very favorite venues in Boston to work at as a wedding photographer), cocktail hour was underway in the Cityside Salon. Courtney Haskell and the whole State Room team were a joy to work with as always.
We stopped for a couple of pictures on arrival at The State Room
Guests picked up their calligraphy escort cards and made their way into the Harborside Salons where the lighting, flowers, mercury votives and tall candles made for a wonderfully inviting setting!
Once guests were seated, the newlyweds danced together:
Marianne's father welcomed everyone and then MOH Diana and Best Man (and Matt's brother) Jeff toasted the couple:
Marianne danced with her father and Matt with his mother:
Marianne explained to me that she didn't want to do the whole bouquet toss thing but instead she would present her bouquet to her grandmother. I thought this was absolutely lovely:
Mmmmm - cake:
The dance floor was officially opened and let's just say that Marianne and Matt's guests knew how to dance!
I love twinkle lights. Trees filled with twinkle lights? My idea of heaven!
The dance floor was literally jumping!
The party continued until late in the night!
Marianne & Matt - what a beautiful day! From the first time we met for drinks and wedding planning chat on Super Bowl weekend to your perfect wedding day - it's been a blast! I hope you like this handful of my favorite pictures - SO many more to come! Thank you for choosing me as your wedding photographer.

Most recent performance
There are currently no scheduled performances of Ariadne auf Naxos. It was last on stage 25 June—13 July 2014 as part of the Summer 2013/14 season.
A rich patron's whims force a high-brow opera and a low-brow comedy to be staged at the same time – to the consternation of their casts and the opera's idealistic composer.
Ariadne auf Naxos playfully combines two very different art forms: tragic opera and romantic farce. The result is a richly textured work that examines the role of art in society, and contrasts true love with cheerful promiscuity. Richard Strauss originally conceived Ariadne auf Naxos as part of a large-scale arrangement of Molière's play Le Bourgeois Gentilhomme. After initial performances in 1912, he abandoned the material from Molière and wrote a new operatic Prologue. The second version of Ariadne auf Naxos had its premiere in 1916.
Christof Loy's eye-catching production draws on an eclectic range of styles, from 18th-century elegance to 1980s grunge, reflecting the richness of Strauss's score. The opera is filled with passion and colour, from the intense lyricism of the Composer's paean to music and the richly scored love duet for Ariadne and Bacchus, to Zerbinetta's show-stopping aria 'Großmächtige Prinzessin'. Other highlights include Ariadne's lyrical arias and the robust, folk-like ensembles for Zerbinetta's comedy troupe.

Your reaction: Ariadne auf Naxos
26 June 2014What did you think of Christof Loy's production of Richard Strauss's tragi-comedic opera?
On Wikipedia
Ariadne auf Naxos (Ariadne on Naxos), Op. 60, is an opera by Richard Strauss with a German libretto by Hugo von Hofmannsthal. Bringing together slapstick comedy and consummately beautiful music, the opera's theme is the competition between high and low art for the public's attention. Music critic and author Matt Dobkin wrote that, while Ariadne auf Naxos is "not as well loved as Der Rosenkavalier or as important as Salome, it is nevertheless staged all the time, thanks in large part to sopranos' attraction to the vocal and dramatic grandeur of the title role and to the compelling spitfire Zerbinetta character."

Lake Clarke Shores warns homeowners about odd utility note posted on doors
LAKE CLARKE SHORES, Fla. - A warning tonight about a notice appearing on homeowners doors that caught the attention of the police.
It's a small delivery notice warning you to call an 800 number about your utility bill.
When it showed up on doors in Lake Clarke Shores, the city took notice.
"They started flooding our utility department with calls thinking it came from our town and it didn't. It's just the lack of information on it. It says lower your utility bills. Please call such and such," explained Detective Carlos Negron of Lake Clarke Shores Police Department.
Here's some Watchdog Wisdom. The lack of information on the delivery notice is a red flag.
There is no company name, and when you call the 800 # the voicemail also doesn't have a company or utility name.
My call to the mysterious 800 # wasn't returned.
If a legitimate company is trying to get a hold of you, they will use their name. The rest of these notices, just throw them in the trash.

Rep. Chellie Pingree of Maine introduced a bill to help survivors of sexual assault in the military get benefits.
Pingree and fellow Democrat Sen. Jon Tester of Montana announced their bill Wednesday in Washington.
Also appearing at a news conference was Ruth Moore, a U.S. Navy veteran and survivor of military sexual trauma who battled post-traumatic stress disorder and homelessness after her assault and subsequent discharge from the Navy.
Pingree said service members who are raped or sexually assaulted face obstacles to receiving care and benefits.
Tester and Pingree's legislation would make it easier for survivors of military sexual trauma to get benefits from the Department of Veterans Affairs.

Al-Rabi ibn Khuthaym
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Eight Ascetics |
Al-Rabi ibn Khuthaym al-Thawri (d.ca 682) was a pupil of Abdullah ibn Abbas and a famous tabi'i ascetic of Kufa. Constantly ill with a form of palsy, in later generations he became a symbol of endurance in the face of suffering. He emphasized the importance of silence, scrupulousness in religious observance, and the fear of Hell. Many traditions in the collection of Sahih Bukhari are given on his authority.[1]
