Thanks for sharing and for reminding us to connect with family and friends as often as we can. I'm so sorry for your loss.
But Nut, this wasn't your fault.
RIP Lothar.

Oh Nut I am so sorry for the loss of such a kind hearted soul. Thank you so much for sharing your story, i know it would have been hard to write. I think that it is truly beautiful that you all have a tattoo that is a memory and will stay with you always.
It has made me think of my BIL who is currently depressed, i will make an effort to see him more.
Sending you lots of love to you and your family
Posted 07 April 2011 - 03:42 PM
Thanks for sharing, Nut.
I'm going to take a family photo with DH when he gets home, we don't have one yet and I guess I never considered there may be any urgency, but you really never do know.
Posted 07 April 2011 - 03:44 PM
I'm so sorry for your loss.
Thank you for sharing your story - it has a real personal resonance for me. My family too are very close, like you said, others joke that we are 'abnormally' close. For the past few months my younger brother has seemed down and withdrawn; whenever I've asked him if everything has okay, he's brushed me off. I've always thought that, because we are so close, if something was really wrong, I would know about it. This has reminded me that that's not true.
Posted 07 April 2011 - 03:50 PM
What a touching story Nicole and so sorry for your loss .
My husband (also in IT) was bullied at work some years ago before our first child was born. I'm sure he went into depression and it was scary seeing your loved one replaced by a souless being. We agreed that resigning was the best thing to do. He found more dignity in being unemployed in the short term compared to his whole being ripped apart at work week after week.
I'm so sad for your brother having nobody to turn to and talk to during his darkest days. I hope your family finds some peace and love in remembering him.
Posted 07 April 2011 - 04:00 PM
Thank you for sharing a story that never should have to have been written. I have also lost a sibling to suicide (sister). No words can describe it.
I send strength to you and your family.
Posted 07 April 2011 - 04:08 PM
I am so sorry for the loss of your brother Nic. Please just know that nothing you could have done would have changed it. As someone who has been to those depths regularly, who has had a couple of failed attempts, has been hospitalised a few times for being suicidal there is not anything that anyone could have done any differently or said any differently that would have changed my mind or prevented the attempts that I did make.
Posted 07 April 2011 - 04:12 PM
I am in tears. I am just so sorry for the loss of your brother, but thank you for making us aware that we should make every day count (I am one who has no photos of me with the kids either because I hate them - You have inspired me to change that). Thinking of you x.
Posted 07 April 2011 - 04:13 PM
Beautifully written, Nut.
Posted 07 April 2011 - 04:29 PM
Thank you for sharing Nut. It's so true what you said about saying 'I love you' and taking photos. So often I say no to a photo because I don't feel my best.
I can see the family resemblance between your son (when you had him in your sig a while ago) and your brother.
Posted 07 April 2011 - 04:37 PM
I have never forgotten that photograph of your father mourning his son at the funeral. Very powerful and very moving.
All the best to you and your family, Nut.
Posted 07 April 2011 - 04:37 PM
wow Nut...your line "drowning in his own mind..." made me cry.
Strength be with you.
Posted 07 April 2011 - 04:38 PM
Nicole, thanks for writing it.
For the other readers.... I am Lothar's mother.
My son's decision to take his life devastated us.
To those who suffer from depression and keep it to themselves.... my message is, TALK TO SOMEONE.

This gripping murder mystery with the background of the Church of England in samll country villages, and continuing to follow the exploits of the Reverend Polly Hewitt, is sure to enthrall you from page one.
When the Reverend Polly Hewitt starts her first post as rector of four rural parishes near Norwich, she discovers life is not as blissfully serence as she had imagined.
The man drove slowly down Anglesham Road, to the point where the footpath abutting the road snakes away to the east. For the final few hundred metres he switched off the engine and cut the lights. Drawing away from the road he parked carefully behind the old oak tree, thick now with summer foliage and generous with its shelter for all-comers, prey and predator alike.
Good. The place was deserted; no lovers entwined in each other's arms oblivious of the rest of the world until startled by some unexpected event, no late night dog walkers taking advantage of the sultry weather. At two in the morning the population of Anglesham (one thousand, one hundred and ten at the last census) was safely asleep.
Cautiously, the man slid from the driver's seat and approached the rear of the car. Carefully he raised the lid of the boot, pausing after every click�sounding to him as loud as gunshots on the still night air�until he was certain he was alone. Struggling more than he had anticipated to lift his burden from the boot, he wondered fleetingly whether he had been entirely wise to opt for the footpath for the last quarter of a mile.
Hefting her body over his shoulder in a fireman's lift, again he reached into the boot, this time for a shovel, but it was difficult to manage with the weight across his back. For a moment he froze in terror as the shovel clanged against the metal side of the vehicle, but nothing stirred. Still, not wanting to risk more sound than was necessary, he left the boot open as he started on his trek.
The burden which had seemed light when he formulated his plan, grew heavier with every step he took, until, when his destination finally hove in sight, he was ready to drop from fatigue. As he placed the rolled carpet gently on the ground to assess the situation, both legs were trembling from the effort of the walk, but there was no time for rest. In another hour or so the first golden streaks of dawn would begin to lighten the night sky and by then he had to be home in bed, asleep.
He stared down into the hole, shining his torch into its blackness but unable to penetrate to the bottom. The hole was twice as deep as he had imagined. Worry creased the man's forehead. He had not thought to bring a ladder. If he clambered down into those depths, how would he climb out again? Time to put plan B into action, although to be honest, he hadn't thought of a plan B. Plan A had seemed foolproof back in the comfort of his own home.
The sheer impossibility of walking all the way back to his car carrying such a weight left the man with no options. With a murmured prayer he opened the carpet, rolling his burden into the hole, trying not to retch at the thud as it hit the bottom. Then, firmly pushing all regrets from his mind, he set to work with the shovel, throwing soil from the heap into the bottom of the hole. He worked solidly for half an hour, by which time he was sweating profusely but estimated that the bottom of the hole would be covered, concealing its recent contents. The torch was virtually useless, but when he was relatively satisfied that the hole had a new, false bottom effectively hiding its addition, he turned his attention to the remaining heap of soil, digging, pushing, and patting with the shovel until there was no trace of his inroads. It was, he thought irrelevantly, like making sand castles on Great Yarmouth beach when he was a small boy.
His task completed, he murmured a second prayer, said a quiet and reverent farewell, lifted the shovel across his shoulder and returned to the car without incident.
Within the hour he was home in bed, but experiencing less relief than he had expected. Since sleep eluded him, he fetched a bottle of whiskey and began to plan for next day. The first job would be to take the used carpet to the tip early in the morning, before too many people were about. After that he must thoroughly clean the car inside and out, washing the obscuring mud from the number plates and concentrating particularly on the inside of the boot. Then he would need to defrost and purify the freezer, before it could be used again to store food.
His plans made, the bottle emptied, and his eyelids beginning to droop, the man fell asleep, just as the first fat raindrops began to fall.

Norfolk Christian author writes murder mystery
A Norfolk Christian author has recently published her latest novel, a murder mystery set in rural Norfolk centring on a rector who has taken over some country parishes where the people aren�t quite so welcoming as she had hoped.
by Helen Baldry
Vengeance Lies in Wait�by�Janice B Scott�was published in September this year�and is the latest in a series focusing on the fictional character Revd Polly Hewitt.
When the Revd Polly Hewitt is appointed as rector of four small, country parishes near Norwich in Norfolk, life is not quite as blissfully serene as she had expected.
She soon discovers that someone is out to frighten her away, but who hates her so much, and why?�
After a series of unpleasant incidents targeting her, when she takes a village funeral, Polly is horrified to discover an unknown body already occupying the grave. �
Disturbing and macabre incidents give an edge to the otherwise comfortable and rather mundane life portrayed of the Church of England. Not familiar with Church of England jargon, I didn�t really find it a barrier to understanding the setting, if anything it made the story realistic with the frustrations of church life laid bare and the clash of different personalities.
I couldn�t decide if I liked the character of Revd Polly Hewitt � I found her at times naive and uppity and in other instances feisty and headstrong. There is a vein of humour in the book, with the invention of characters such as church reader Cheryl with her racy clothes and colourful language. And there�s Oswald Waters, a pernickety minister who is a stickler for tradition and a pillar of the community, yet his own personal turmoil�is simmering just beneath the surface.
An issue that was clearly portrayed was the struggle for some members of quiet Norfolk village of Anglesham to accept the arrival of a young female priest � this made me wonder if it was drawn from the author�s own experience of opposition to female clergy.
Janice Scott was ordained as a priest in the Church of England with the first batch of women priests in 1994. Like her protagonist, she worked as rector of six village churches in South Norfolk.
I haven�t read any book like this one; there are familiar sounding place names and even mention of Christian organisations (The Matthew Project) which added a new dimension for a reader from Norfolk.
As to whodunit... clues were dropped throughout the book, sometimes very obvious that I felt sure I was a step ahead and yet I didn�t work it out until all was revealed at the end.
As to looking forward to another book in the series � based in a small Norfolk community with family feuds two-a-penny, church rivalry and gossiping parishioners ...surely there must be more dark secrets for Polly to uncover!
Janice B Scott�s other books in the series are�Heaven Spent�and�Babes and Sucklings. She is now working on her fourth novel in the same series.

Hi Brett, thanks for the PM.
I see you are already in
It sounds to me like you might need to slow down and not take it all so seriously perhaps? It's quite alright to be dating a lot of women as you get over the death of your wife. I can imagine that you will need to just have some fun for a time. I would hope that you keep that in perspective and not "
" too soon. I would think that you will know in your heart and with all your being that you are ready and wanting, needing to settle a bit more with one or more women.
For now I like that you are being open and having new experiences while keeping honest to the women that you are meeting. So much fun. I would suggest that if they are getting anxious about you seeing others or wanting you to settle for them only, and now, that you take a moment to figure out if they are just fun friends to be with intimately or if you really love them. Sometimes its not worth hanging on to those who have differing values.
As I said in my PM, please take the time to read a lot on the forums under topics that you are interested in. You will find a wide range of interesting takes on Polyamory and we are all, for the most part, willing and ready to help with any questions and situations you would like to discuss.

Come, O Holy Spirit:
enlighten my understanding
to know your commands;
strengthen my heart
against the wiles of the enemy; inflame my will...
I have heard your voice,
and I don't want to harden my heart to resisting,
by saying 'later... tomorrow.'
Nunc coepi! Now!
Lest there be no tomorrow for me!
O, Spirit of truth and wisdom,
Spirit of understanding and counsel,
Spirit of joy and peace!
I want what you want,
I want it because you want it,
I want it as you want it,
I want it when you want it.
By Fr. John Henry Hanson, O. Praem.
"We don't have to be in dire straits before we think about fleeing to Mary for help. The wine doesn't have to run out completely before we come with our empty vessels. And yet, we should realize that should such desperate moments come, Mary always stands before us as an open door. In her we find the harbor, the sanctuary, the place where all life's hurts are understood by one whose life was overshadowed by a prophecy of piercing sorrow and punctuated by its full enactment."
By The MacDonald Family
"My family and I were all received into the Catholic Church during this past Easter Vigil, so the celebration of St Josemaria is especially poignant for us this year. My husband was baptized Catholic, but had never received any of the other sacraments. Though we attended various churches over the years, none of four children nor I had ever been baptized."
By The Amador Family
"St. Josemaria has provided me with the guidance and insight to better understand how I can become a better person on a daily basis. I am able to improve my attitude and maintain solid inner peace through meditating on his writings and constantly reminding me of my call to holiness."
By J.R. of Independence, KY
"As I learned at the feet of St. Josemaria, I came to understand God as my Father and my call to discover Him and become a saint- right where I was! How much joy filled my heart at this discovery! Yet, there was still work to be done on this stubborn, weak-willed soul."
By The Paschall Family
St. Josemaria Escriva has been an inspiration in our marriage and family. We learned about Opus Dei when we were newly married and before we had children. St. Josemaria's writings have helped us learn how to love, forgive, persevere and be compassionate at all times. With the plan of life that includes the sacraments and daily prayer in our lives we have the strength to begin again each day with a smile. Happy Feast of St Josemaria — and nunc coepi ("now I begin")!
By Friends of the St. Josemaria Institute
"St. Josemaria has done so much for us that it's hard to put it in a few words. He has taught us to give more care to the neediest family member and that having a special needs child is a sign of God's trust. Also to overlook the faults of others while working on our own faults. He has taught us to be generous and to love God a lot! His teachings have brought a lot of joy and harmony to our family life. Happy feast of St. Josemaria to all!"
By St. Josemaria Institute
Cody Joseph Swanson is a devoted father, husband, sculptor and teacher who resides in Florence, Italy. We contacted Cody regarding a recent artistic commission he was awarded by the Campus Bio-Medico in Rome— a university and hospital founded under the inspiration of St Josemaria Escriva and the guidance of Blessed Alvaro del Portillo.
By St. Josemaria Escriva
"God our Father has seen fit to grant us, in the heart of his Son, 'infinite treasures of love,' mercy and affection. If we want to find evidence that God loves us — that he not only listens to our prayers but anticipates them — we need only follow the same line of thought as St Paul: 'He who did not spare his own Son but gave him up for us all, will he not also give us all things in him?'"
By Fr. John Henry Hanson, O. Praem.
"Just as the people of Jesus' time had to look beyond (not disregard) His human appearances in order to see God, so must we arrive at a clarity that leads us to the treasure buried in an otherwise nondescript field. The sameness that characterizes most of our relationships and activities is the unspectacular setting in which God chooses to reveal Himself."
By St. Josemaria Escriva
"A good number of years ago, with a sense of conviction that was growing stronger in me each day, I wrote: 'Put all your hope in Jesus. You yourself have nothing, are worth nothing, can do nothing. He will act, if only you abandon yourself in him.' Time has gone by, and that conviction of mine has grown even stronger and deeper. I have seen many souls with such hope in God that it has set them marvellously ablaze with love, with a fire that makes the heart beat strong and keeps it safe from discouragement and dejection, even though along the way they may suffer and at times suffer greatly."
"May you seek Christ, May you find Christ, May you love Christ." - St. Josemaria Escriva

Lauren Faust saves the day!Well guys, it's still too bad that Mane 6 got that C&D from Hasbro and can't do Fighting is Magic anymore, but we have some good news! Although it starts off with some bad news:More Like This
Sadly Mane 6 could not convince Hasbro to let them continue Fighting is Magic without any copyright issues but they game is "not dead" because Lauren Faust has entered the fray and is going to help them try to continue the game!

How will they do it? I don't know. They may create original pony characters with original names and appearances but they wont' be able to use the term "My Little Pony" considering that is already trademarked and they can't use the character names so sadly that means we will not see Twilight and the gang which is still too bad because they worked so hard to make fighting models for said characters. I'm not sure there is any way they can possibly get our favorite ponies back in t

The controversy between the United States and China over the widespread pirating of American media assets escalated last week. The Bush administration said it filed formal trade complaints against China with the World Trade Organization (WTO).
The complaints charge that China has failed to stop the rampant piracy of American entertainment media and counterfeiting of American goods. "Inadequate protection of intellectual property rights in China costs U.S. firms and workers billions of dollars each year," Susan Schwab, U.S. trade representative, said in a statement.
The White House, under pressure from Congress, said it would file two separate cases against China at the WTO aimed at forcing Beijing to make piracy a criminal offense.
The "Financial Times of London" said the twin cases were the most legally contentious ever filed by the United States against China because they seek to force politically sensitive changes to cultural laws and the judicial system. The effort to liberalize the media market, however, will meet serious resistance, the newspaper said, because the Chinese government sees the importation of foreign, and particularly Western culture, as a political rather than economic policy decision.
The American demands that China throw software and media entertainment pirates in jail rather than issue fines would also require changes to the criminal code. Gregory Rutchik, a lawyer who specializes in copyright violations, told the "Times" that legal victory was far from certain.
The formal complaints came as congressional anger over last year's record $232 billion U.S. trade deficit with China hampered Bush administration efforts to win renewal of trade promotion authority.
Another U.S. complaint focuses on market access barriers that make it difficult for U.S. movie, music and publishing companies to offer legitimate products that could compete for sales with pirated goods.

One of my goals is to not eat after 7pm, however I sometimes get hungry or want a snack about 9-9:30p. Instead of ice cream, cookies, etc I will have a glass of unsweetened coconut almond milk (45 calories) and sometimes add 1/2 cup of frozen blueberries or strawberries and ice and blend for a quick shake of less than 100 calories.

The suggested meal plans provided by SparkPeople has really helped me to cut calories. Even when I make substitutions, they help me with my menu planning. I found that before I was getting too many carbs (bread, rice, potatoes) and not enough fruits and veggies or protein. I, also, found out that it's ok to use canned applesauce or fruit instead of fresh which helps me stick to a healthy eating plan. It's not about perfection. It's doing the best that you can.

I used to think that Aldi's was only full of super processed junk food.

Anytime I am about to eat something that is high-cal (e.g. dessert) I think about how much satisfaction I will get from that first bite. The satisfaction with the second bite is a little bit lower than the first. And so on. So I choose however many bites I think I can balance between enjoying myself and not overeating, always remembering that no bite will ever taste as good as the first!

Anti-Asian Hate Was One of Killer Elliot Rodger's Motivations
While I had read that misogyny and a sense of entitlement were motivations of Elliot Rodger, the man who killed six people and then himself near Santa Barbara, I didn't realize that anti-Asian hate was another one until I saw this post from the BigWOWO. Rodger stabbed three Asians, two of whom were his roommates. His mother was Asian, but he seemed to despise full-blooded Asians, especially when he saw Asian males were talking to white females. In a way, this case seems to be one of life imitating art. The LA Times has highlighted excerpts from his manifesto that applies to his hate.
On killing his Asian roommates:
The first people I would have to kill are my two housemates, to secure the entire apartment for myself as my personal torture and killing chamber.
On Asian males with white females:
I soon became frustrated that no one was paying any attention to me, particularly the girls. I saw girls talking to other guys who looked like obnoxious slobs, but none of them showed any interest in me. As my frustration grew, so did my anger. I came across this Asian guy who was talking to a white girl.
The sight of that filled me with rage. I always felt as if white girls thought less of me because I was half-Asian, but then I see this white girl at the party talking to a full-blooded Asian. I never had that kind of attention from a white girl! And white girls are the only girls I'm attracted to, especially the blondes.
How could an ugly Asian attract the attention of a white girl, while a beautiful Eurasian like myself never had any attention from them? I thought with rage.
Rodger's murderous rampage chillingly hits close to home. A friend of mine had a son who had come home over that weekend from UC Santa Barbara. Number One Son was interested in visiting there to look at the college. Two of the victims were Asian from San Jose (where I live), and another one was an Asian from Fremont (where I used to live).
Oddly enough, Rodger's hate for Asians has parallels to Koji Sakai's movie Chink. In that story, a frustrated man of Asian descent despises his Asian background and takes it out his anger in a murderous fashion on Asians. Oscar Wilde said that Life imitates Art far more than Art imitates Life. With Rodger, that has tragically proven to be the case.

Sounds like this guy hated everyone.
Look at the specific reasons why he hated "everyone." He didn't hate everyone for the same reasons. And these reasons line up neatly with society's everyday sort of prejudice, which is why it's so bothersome (and why certain people are desperate to shut down discussion).
I know he didn't hate everyone for the same reasons but it's disingenuous to just pick and post one thing that he hated when in reality his hatred was at everyone even for different reasons.
This article focuses on his anti-Asian hate (which was really a form of self-hate) because most other sites have rightfully focused on his extreme misogyny, which was the tainted spring from which most of his other hates spewed. Also, almost all of his victims were White women and Asian men. In his writings, he focused most of his hate on White women, with Asianness being up there as well. If there's a hated-upon group that you feel is being left out of the discussion, then feel free to contribute. But don't try to derail discussions that have been a long time coming with the lazy and useless, "He hated everybody" line. Okay, let's say he did. Then let's analyze each group that he hated and why.
Terry "The Invader" Xu
Sure, he hated a lot of people. But why hate part of yourself?
Hating people who are not your ethnicity may be misguided, but hating your own ethnicity is just mentally ill.

Tunis, Tunisia - After months of instability, speculation and anxious anticipation, the moment finally arrived. The calm after the storm finally arrived as Tuesday's inauguration of the Constituent Assembly opened a new chapter in Tunisian history. The venue for the opening, Bardo Palace, was symbolic - the site of the signing of the Arab world's first constitution in 1861, which promised to usher in constitutionalism, shortly followed by the Bardo Treaty that imposed French rule.
One hundred and fifty years later, Tunisians finally have an independent, elected body that reflects their diversity and represents their voice, tasked with drawing up a constitution to enshrine their freedoms and reflect their ideals and aspirations. Tuesday's emotionally charged Constituent Assembly gathering - with its diverse members drawn from across
One hundred and fifty years later, Tunisians finally have an independent, elected body that reflects their diversity and represents their voice, tasked with drawing up a constitution to enshrine their freedoms and reflect their ideals and aspirations. Tuesday's emotionally charged Constituent Assembly gathering - with its diverse members drawn from across the political and geographical landscape - could not have been any more different from the mind-numbing lifelessness of the coterie of sycophants that passed for a "parliament" in Ben Ali's days.
The significance of this watershed moment for the Arab world cannot be overestimated. Only a year ago, any prospect of change in the stagnant waters of Arab politics was a mere dream. The region embodied instability and continuity in equal measure, each feeding the other in a seemingly unbreakable cycle. Stability was used as a pretext for brutal abuses of power until the abuses finally overturned stability itself and the cycle was broken.
Tunisia now has the chance to repair some of the many flaws in the Arab political fabric - lack of accountability, in-built corruption, an estranged political elite with little connection to wider society, marginalisation of women from political leadership and an Islamist-secularist dichotomy entrenched through state propaganda.
The Constituent Assembly boasts a higher percentage of women than France, Belgium, Ireland, the UK and US. Some 42 of the 49 female members - more than 85 per cent - are from the Islamist Ennahdha party, making it the most progressive Tunisian party in terms of female political representation and one of the most progressive worldwide. A woman has also just been appointed Vice-President of the Assembly, also from Ennahdha.
A new coalition
This outcome could herald a new phase characterised by a genuine commitment to women's status as full and equal partners in public life, rather than the exploitation of women's issues for political point scoring seen under Ben Ali.
The new coalition government brings together Islamists, liberals and leftists, a broad democratic platform rarely seen in the Arab world. The scale of this achievement is difficult to grasp without an appreciation of the historical context. The Ben Ali regime, like all dictatorial machines, did not rest at driving its opponents underground, but set its sights on starving them of legitimacy by dividing, isolating and vilifying them through propaganda, lies and fear.
It is widely known that journalists at various Arab and international newspapers and blogs were on Ben Ali's payroll, while an entire government office was dedicated to spreading fabrications about key political opponents. After decades of physical and psychological onslaught, the mere survival of these parties is a significant achievement. The fact that they have managed to emerge with a strong will for compromise and dialogue and succeeded in forming a coalition government so swiftly is nothing short of remarkable.
Live Box 201133114189450158
It is no coincidence that the parties to whom most voters flocked are those that emphasised co-operation and dialogue as the basis for a new inclusive politics. They also expressed the strongest commitment to the main goals of the January uprising - justice, development, accountability and representation. Parties that based their election campaign on provoking fear of others - particularly the Progressive Democratic Party, which stood essentially as the anti-Ennahdha party - lost out majorly.
The results sent a strong message that voters wanted co-operation not conflict, dialogue not demonisation. The distinction that matters most to them is between democrats - those who want a radical break with the former regime - and anti-democrats - those who want to maintain the same structures and power bases. It is time for all politicians to heed this message and cast aside the ideological posturing and propaganda of old.
An experiment in governance
The reality is that no single party can, or indeed should, rebuild Tunisia. The challenges the country faces require a plurality of solutions and voices. On the symbolic level, there is no more fitting way to launch a new era of democratic pluralism than through a broad coalition of views and outlooks.
It is true that the parties in the coalition government have little experience of governing. However, this is not unheard of even in seasoned democracies - Britain's David Cameron had never served as a minister before becoming prime minister. Tunisia's new leaders are inexperienced not for lack of skill, but opportunity. Their political career, in most cases, involved a direct trajectory from opposition to prison cell. The new prime minister, Hammadi Jebali of Ennahdha, spent 16 years in prison, ten of those in solitary confinement. The new president, Moncef Marzouqi of the Congress for the Republic, was also sentenced to prison.
The coming months will be an experiment in alliance-building, policy-making and governing. It will require a shift from the realm of theory to practice, from the rhetoric of opposition to the reality of decision-making. It also calls for a shift in language, the construction of a shared political lexicon based on a new understanding of Tunisian society and its challenges.
Decades of repression meant that the social and economic problems lurking beneath the grinning mask of Ben Ali's regime could never be publicly acknowledged or examined. Those mechanisms that allow a society to understand itself, its priorities and needs - free and independent media, independent think-tanks, a vibrant civil society - were not permitted to flourish. As reality is finally exhumed from the rubble of the former regime, it may seem that democracy has uncovered more problems than solutions.
This new political lexicon must also overcome the challenge of ideological polarisation, another legacy of authoritarianism.
Social and economic justice
Just as the Mubarak regime sought to provoke Muslim-Christian tension and as Gaddafi manipulated tribal loyalties, Ben Ali sought to strengthen his regime by painting Islamism, in particular, as the antithesis of all that is modern, progressive and good. This broad coalition government has the opportunity to finally surmount this ideological rift, which has been wielded to destabilise and divide opposition and silence dissent. This may generate a national dialogue about the role of religion in public life, and rightly so.
For too long, this debate has been stifled and dominated by a minority that sought to impose its own exclusionary vision based on narrow, rigid conceptions of religion, Islamism and secularism. This new coalition proves that there is an incredibly broad spectrum of thought within each of these categories that can be drawn upon to construct a new democratic consensus suited to the specificities of the Tunisian political and cultural context. To silence this conversation is to short-circuit the democratisation process.
However, the key demands of the revolution focused on social and economic justice, not identity and morality. The new government must not allow itself to be sidetracked into circular debates on culture but focus on pressing economic issues, as well as entrenching democratic processes that facilitate political participation, ensure government transparency and accountability and institutionalise rule-based mechanisms of decision-making based on consultation.
What it must deliver is not necessarily the right people but the right processes that will eventually lead to the right policies. That is the only guarantee for achieving the simple demand at the heart of the revolution - a government that shares its people's values, cares for their concerns and responds to their needs.

I'm having trouble phrasing this question, so consequently I'm also having trouble finding answers. Hopefully someone can help me word it better. Anyway, I can't find any standard procedures for managing the reassociation of a given database row with another row that may or may not already exist. For example, say we've got two models:
class Residence < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :zipcode
class Zipcode < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :residences
Now say my data is screwed up and I want to change the zipcode of a residence. I can't just make a standard rails form for it because I don't want to change the zipcode itself (i.e., change zipcode with id=1 to 90210 instead of 90123), I want to reassociate the residence with a new zipcode that may or may not already be in the database.
I can think of a number of ways to do this, but it seems like something that one might always be looking to do with a many-to-one relationship, and I'd like to learn the "best practices" way to do it.

Teen Mom
Did Jenelle Evans Get Drunk On New Year's Eve?
Like most teenage dreamers, Jenelle Evans rang in the new year in style. By "style," we mean that she wrapped herself up in sparkles, hit up North Carolina's hottest club, and partied the night away with her hunky hubby, Courtland Rogers.
But did Jenelley (who hates alcohol) pop open a bottle of champagne and get plastered? You betcha! "I haven't drank in months..." she posted on Facebook. "Now I want this alcohol OUT of my system ughhhhh... Thanks baby for not letting me drink anymore then I did :) love u gorgeous u r my life saver lol had so much fun last night!"
We're surprised Jenelle got her booze on for New Year's Eve, considering she didn't drink on her 21st birthday and claims she hates alcohol. Then again, girls just wanna have fun, and thankfully our boy Courtland was around to monitor his wifey's intake!
Do you think Jenelle should have stayed sober on New Years considering her struggles with addiction, or should she be able to do as many Jello shots as she wants? Sound off below!

After an unsuccessful bid to become Wauwatosa mayor, John Pokrandt now seeks election to the state's 13th Assembly District, running as a Democrat.
Other declared candidates for the 13th Assembly District include Republicans Matt Adamczyk, an advisor to Sen. Leah Vukmir, and Rob Hutton, a former Waukesha County supervisor.
A sales and marketing professional, Pokrandt is a lifelong resident of Wisconsin and a resident of the 13th District for more than 11 years. John and his wife, Miyoshi, have two children, 6-year-old son Kaito and 4-year-old daughter Hana. They live in the Quarry Heights neighborhood of East Wauwatosa.
"I am running for the 13th Assembly District because our district deserves a strong leader who can balance the needs of a diverse constituency. I know the importance of good schools, strong public safety services, affordable healthcare and family supporting jobs," he said in a news release issued today.
"I believe that our elected officials need to serve their constituents above all else. We need to put an end to the partisan bickering and radical agendas and get Wisconsin moving forward again"
Pokrandt stated in the release that his top priorities will be jobs and the economy, education funding, women's rights and workers' rights. His website is www.JohnForWisconsin.com.
A campaign kickoff fundraiser will be held at the Chancery, 7615 W. State St., in Tosa, from 6 to 8 p.m. May 8.

James Lewis, one of the UK's rising producers, engineers, mixers and songwriters in genres ranging from indie rock to dance, uses Avastor's HDX-800 triple interface drives for tracking via Pro Tools. Working with such artists as Arctic Monkeys, The Pistolas and Simon Webbe, whose single "Ride The Storm" was chosen as the main title track for the movie Fantastic "Four: Rise of Silver Surfer," it's no wonder why Lewis required a drive that would outlast the competition.
"The Avastor drives give me the performance I need when tracking and editing during long sessions," said Lewis, who is currently recording the band OK at Mayfair Studios in London. "I like the professional build specifications — notably the cooling fan and the grounded internal AC power supply. It's a well-thought out product with pro features that you don't often see in external FireWire drives."
Avastor's HDX-800 offers the highest transfer rates for both MAC- and PC-based workstations with its dual FireWire 800 ports. The HDX-800 drive has storage capacities of 80GB-1TB in a FireWire 800/400/USB 2.0 enclosure that is also equipped with an internal 110/220V auto-switching power supply and ultra-quiet ball-bearing cooling fan.

The Lucas Oil Speedway is considered by Industry Insiders to be one of the top five Race Tracks in the Nation. Located in Wheatland Missouri, about an hour north of Springfield and only about an hour and a half fromKansas City.

Twenty one luxury suites, a giant HD Jumbo Tron Screen, Musco Sports lighting, a Bose Stadium Sound System, Go Kart Track for all ages, The Diamond Bar, the best track food in the country, and the nicest pits in dirt track racing are just a few of the amenities that set us apart. In 2011 the Inaugural Diamond Drag Boat Nationals made a splash at the Brand New Liquid Quarter Mile, Lake Lucas. Known as the only purpose-built drag boat racing lake in the world, more than 140 drag boats competed in the first ever event.
We host some of the largest dirt track events in the Midwest featuring some of the biggest names in racing including: The Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series, POWRi Midget National Series, The Lucas Oil Pro-Pulling League, Casey's General Stores USMTS Modifieds, Lucas Oil Drag BoatRacing Series, ASCS Sprint Cars, and The Lucas Oil MLRA.

Lucas Oil Speedway is proud to have multiple events televised nationally on CBS Sports and MavTV. CBS Sports comes on board for (3) huge events this season including the 20th Annual DART Show-Me 100, the Lucas Oil Pro Pulling League Truck and Tractor Pull, and the 2nd Annual Diamond Drag Boat Nationals.
The 9th Annual CMH Diamond Nationals features the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series in their second and final appearance this season as the country's top Dirt Late Model Driver's attempt to claim the $10,000 winner's share of the purse and the prestigious Diamond Ring that goes with it.

Other top drivers expected to be in attendance include Don O'Neal, Jared Landers, Eddie Carrier Jr., Tony Jackson Jr., Terry Phillips, Chad Simpson, Earl Pearson Jr., Steve Francis, and many more of the top Dirt Late Model Drivers in the Country!

Prime Time highlights a handy list of initiatives that already tap retirees for such roles as foster grandparents and volunteers at free medical clinics. The book also profiles people who are now reaping the benefits of remaining socially productive. Freedman debunks the notion that old boomers will only be a burden on the nation's health care and Social Security systems. Instead, they will be the largest, best-educated, and healthiest group of retirees ever, he writes. Insightful and well written, Prime Time is for anyone concerned about the economic and social changes under way with the aging of the baby boomers. --Dan Ring --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
