Goose Creek High School employee Arthur Prioleau, 59, of Kinglet Lane, Hanahan, was booked into the Hill-Finklea Detention Center on the afternoon of Aug. 28 and charged with third degree criminal sexual conduct with a minor, according to the prison's website.
His bond was set at $50,000 for the charge. He was released on Aug. 30, according to a records clerk at the jail.
A Berkeley County School District statement indicates Prioleau has been placed on administrative leave pending the outcome of an investigation.
A Hanahan Police Department report indicates Prioleau is accused of touching an underage teen girl outside of her clothes several times in July.
Prioleau is the victim's step-grandfather, according to the report. The girl told her father the inappropriate touching took place while she was staying with Prioleau for a week, according to the report.
She called her father crying on July 22 at 12:34 a.m. and said that Prioleau had touched her inappropriately several times, according to the report. Prioleau also told the girl not to tell her grandmother what happened, according to the report.
On July 22 at 12:30 p.m. the girl's father flagged down an HPD officer on Campbell Street near Yeamans Hall Road to report the incident.
Charleston County Department of Social Services was notified because the victim resides in Charleston County. DSS said they would not take the case because the grandparent suspect is not the child's parent.
The case was assigned to an HPD sergeant on July 24. On Aug. 8 he received a fax from the Lowcountry Children's Center reporting that in their forensic interview with the victim, the report was consistent with the statement her father made to HPD.
On Aug. 16 HPD learned there were no injuries reported after an MUSC Children's Hospital medical exam. This is consistent with being touched in a sexual manner on the outside of her clothes, according to the report.
A warrant for criminal sexual conduct with a minor in the third degree was issued on Aug. 20 and placed into NCIC.
On Aug. 28 at 3:19 p.m. an HPD officer responded to a Redbank Road gas station where Berkeley County Sheriff's Office deputies had detained Prioleau, according to the report.
Prioleau is not a certified teacher but was in charge of giving kids detention with in school suspension (ISS), according to a source at the school.
"He was really good at it," a source at the school said. "He's been there for 21 years doing ISS. He's been awesome . . . he's a former Marine and ran it like the Marine Corps."
Students were talking about the arrest this week at GCHS and one student is said to have learned of the arrest through Twitter. When GCHS employees heard of the arrest they checked the prison's website and saw Prioleau's mug shot.
Prioleau received a license to be a pastor a few years ago, according to the source. There are Youtube videos of Prioleau preaching at Memorial Missionary Baptist Church of Charleston.

Moving toward a transportation system that fuels healthy people and a healthy planet.
According to statistics, the US release the second highest amount of carbon emissions in the world, after China. A staggering 33% of the US carbon emissions that are released comes from transportation, with 60% of the transportation emissions coming from gasoline for cars and light trucks. This means that transportation is the second largest contributor of U.S greenhouse gas emissions after the electricity sector.
Since 1990 greenhouse gas emissions from transportation have increased by roughly 18%, which is largely due to an increasing demand for travel. Furthermore, the number of vehicles travelled by car and light trucks has increased by 35% from 1990 to 2012. Again, this is for a number of different reasons ranging from population growth, economic growth, urban sprawl and low fuel prices early on in this period.
Although efforts have already been increased to reduce the amount of carbon emissions created by transport, such as the EPA and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) taking coordinated steps to enable the production of a new generation of clean vehicles, through reduced greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and improved fuel use from on-road vehicles and engines, from the smallest cars to the largest trucks, there is still a lot more that needs to be done if the US are ever going to achieve their goal of reducing carbon emission by 30% from 2005 levels, as announced by President Obama.
Efforts should be increased to encourage more U.S. citizens to change their travel habits and make more eco-friendly choices. Whether it is public transport, car sharing or walking/running/biking whenever or wherever possible. It would be beneficial to introduce more incentives for Americans to actually travel in a more environmentally friendly way, such as the bike to work scheme that is being used in the UK. If UK businesses opt into the bike to work scheme, both employers and employees can benefit, including getting a bike for a discounted price, saving money on traveling costs, get more fit and healthy as well as significantly reducing their carbon footprint. If more American businesses had a scheme similar to this, it would all contribute to making the U.S a greener country.
Although it would be great if everyone could run, walk, bike everywhere and get public transport at any point of the day, in reality this is not at all possible for every U.S citizen. However, that doesn't mean to say that people can't travel in a more green way. 60 percent of transportation emissions come from gasoline for cars and light trucks, but this figure could significantly be reduced if more U.S citizens opted for 'green' cars. For example, a gasoline-powered car that gets 20mpg releases 20lbs of CO2 in comparison to a plug-in hybrid car that gets 100mpg releases just 4 lbs of CO2.
One issue that might be raised from this point is the expense of buying a newer 'greener' car, which many U.S. citizens may not be able to afford. However, it could be argued that many green cars have been made to be affordable to a large target market. Alternatively, there is the option of car financing which again is something that many UK citizens have chosen to do in order to get the car they like as well as obtain a greener lifestyle. For example, Simon Gray at Credo Asset Finance, who offer car finance in Norwich, is delighted to see so many people seeing the benefits of car finance:
"We are delighted at the increasing interest in people coming to us for the best car finance deals around so that they can get the car they want at an affordable price for them. As 'being green' has become an increasing important issue for many consumers' lifestyles, we have seen a growing interest in people opting for cars that are better for the environment."
So, although strategies are already being put in place to reduce the amount of carbon emissions released by transport, perhaps America should introduce some more strategies to reduce transportation emissions even further in the U.S.

My friend Jim* has his MAX on the road now. He has around 500 miles on the clock so far, and wrote some comments on a homebuilt car forum we both subscribe to:
I topped off the tank got on the expressway and drove 55 miles an hour North for 80 miles to visit a friend. The friend drove the car for 10 miles or so & we noticed a storm coming from the east.
Dropped my friend off and drove the car home at 65 to 75 miles an hour to avoid most of the rain 170 miles and put in 2.3 gal. OR 73.9 MPG or $0.05 per mile. Must finish the top.
Yeah, well, if you want to outrun storms in a MAX, your mileage is going to show it, so Jim needs to finish the top. Jim does aircraft fabrication for a living, he's a skilled and talented craftsman, and it's no shock that his car looks prettier than my car, and I expected his top to look nicer than mine too, but I wasn't expecting to see this photo two days later...
...or this photo a day after that.
Jim used 2" thick expanded styrene insulation board, cut blocks to shape, glued them together in place on his car, and sanded them smooth. He then covered it with fiberglass and carbon fiber cloth, laminated together with epoxy resin. This description does diminish the skill involved (it's a bit like saying, "Michelangelo took a large rock and knocked off all the pieces that didn't look like David") but that's how it's done.
I particularly like the double-bubble look, which was common enough in sports cars of The Day, and the windshield is pretty neat too, it's a mid-50s GMC pickup truck windshield made into a split windshield by taking 14" of glass out of the middle, and flipping it upside down to make it lower and more acute.
I'm looking forward to copying this top for myself, it sure looks a lot nicer than my current ragtop. You'll be reading more about this reader-built MAX soon, right here on this blog.
*I'll be meeting Jim in person for the first time in about a month, I'm driving the MPX truck to the Mother Earth News Fair in Seven Springs and Jim's on my route. Much like Will Rogers, I have many friends I haven't met yet.

Providing practical riding information for cyclists everywhere is the goal of the CycleMap app from Ratomic Lab. The cycling app indexes the most popular bike paths around the world, which makes pedaling your way around a foreign locale easier than changing gears. Want to ride into downtown Gothenberg from Kortedala? No problem. Fancy a leisurely spin around Tokyo? CycleMap has you covered.
Developed by Oliver Carbonneau, CycleMap was conceived after the developer realized there weren't many good smartphone apps for bicycling. Eventually, Carbonneau decided to open-source the application, making it possible for anyone to add to the app's vast index of bike routes. Currently, CycleMap includes 1.346 million kilometers' worth of paths around the globe.
Funding from entrepreneur David Boudreault has allowed CycleMap to offer a free version as well as a "pro" version, which costs $4.99. CycleMapPRO not only lets users know the type of path — gravel, pavement, dirt — but also allows users save their search history and favorites. The Pro version gives directions to nearby bike shops for riders in need. Don't own a bike? No problem. CycleMapPRO also shows the locations and availability of bike share stations in 176 cities.
Amtrak's latest efforts to modernize its cars will improve traveling by train for bicyclists. Previously, cyclists had to keep their wheels in cumbersome boxes when riding the rails, an inconvenient task for commuters living in the Northeast corridor. To remedy the situation, the company has just begun field-testing a new baggage car design that features collapsible shelves for luggage. The shelves double as bike racks when not in use.
Joe Boardman, president and CEO of Amtrak, says, "It's clear that Americans want a national system of intercity passenger rail and Amtrak is moving ahead to build new equipment to meet customer demand." During the testing phase, the new cars will travel along the Northeast corridor and will be tested for speed, breaking, stability and, of course, baggage handling. When testing is complete, these new baggage cars will be implemented along all 15 of Amtrak's long-distance routes.
In addition to new baggage cars, Amtrak has already given the green light to new diner, sleeper and baggage-dormitory cars. "We're excited for this next phase of the new equipment journey into revenue service and hope you are, too," says a company spokesperson. Amtrak hopes for the new baggage cars to be ready for use by the end of 2014.

Congratulate me! I drove MAX south of San Francisco about a month ago to the Maker Faire Bay Area and won the Maker Faire Editor's Choice award for our class. What is our class, exactly? That's hard to say. It's sure not the Amazing Vehicle class, because we were outclassed numerous times on that front; every time I turned around I'd bump into an amphibious dragon boat or a high speed cupcake or a steampunk submarine...or a 25-foot-tall mechanical octopus shooting gouts of flame from its tentacles.
Maybe there was a Street Legal Vehicle class, but probably not—conformity to standards is not a strong motivator at the Maker Faires (note the "e" in Faire) so I doubt we'd get our own class for dotting the Ts and crossing the Is as required to get a license plate.
I know I didn't get it for workmanship, either. The guy right next to me, Nick Jenkins, had a car he'd built from scratch (with a number of Kinetic Vehicles body and hardware parts, I'm proud to say) that looked a lot like MAX looked in its Escape from Berkley trim...or a lot like Dave's MAXine which attended last year's Maker Faire Bay Area...except Nick's car looks like it rolled off the showroom floor and into a restoration shop, and from there to a museum where curators applied bugs to the headlights to give it a simulated "used" look. It's a work of art in the old-school sense of the phrase, whereas Dave and I (and the guys who built the octopus) subscribe more to the how-soon-can-we-get-this-on-the-road aesthetic.
Compared to MOTHER EARTH NEWS FAIRS, the Maker Faires draw folks who want to see stuff more than who want to learn stuff, and while Maker Faires are indeed a celebration of the Do It Yourself philosophy, it seems the majority of the spectators came to admire DIY from afar. And though MAX was generally well received, a surprising (to me at least) number of people thought I was trying to pull something over on them with my claim of 100 MPG on the freeway. One guy grinned and said, "You must really baby it." No, sir, when I baby it, I get 120 MPG.
So maybe I won the High Fuel Efficiency Vehicle class, but fuel efficiency isn't a huge motivator at the Maker Faires...wait a minute, that's not completely fair (or faire, as the case may be). They do honor efficiency, and efforts to make our world greener, but art for the sake of art is honored as well. Since many of the objects d'art are huge and flamboyant (a word one rarely gets to use literally) they get well-deserved attention, and only a nitpicker such as myself would note that, for example, a flaming octopus typically runs through 200 gallons of propane a day. To quote Butch Cassidy, A small price for beauty.
The curiosity is killing me, so I've emailed the organizers for clarification of MAX's class. I'm guessing it's something like Non-Flaming Vehicle Under Six Tons but I'd like to know specifically.

The United Kingdom's first all-electric bus route started running in Milton Keynes in January and will be closely monitored over a five-year period to test the effectiveness of an electric system against diesel.
The eight electric buses run 17 hours a day and seven days each week to cover approximately 56,000 miles a year. Paul Adcock, Area Managing Director of public transport company Arriva, says: "Electric buses have huge potential, and we're exploring how they can help us take better care of the environment without compromising passenger service."
In order to maintain the same service schedule as diesel buses, the buses charge overnight and receive charges throughout the day from wire coils buried beneath the road. Through a process called inductive charging, parking a bus over a charging plate for 10 minutes replenishes two-thirds of the energy needed to run its 15-mile route.
"Electric buses' physical and economic potential has historically been sidelined because no one could see around the range problem associated with the batteries," says John Miles, director of the Milton Keynes electric bus program. According to global engineering firm Arup, Miles has a plan to combat this issue: "Wireless charging can bring electric buses in from the cold, and potentially put them neck-and-neck with their diesel counterparts. If we can demonstrate true parity with diesel buses during this trial, we'll have reached a tipping point for low-carbon transport – we'll have proved it can be cost-effective as well as green."
The buses are projected to reduce CO2 emissions by approximately 270 tons each year. The amount of CO2 savings could increase to about 680 tons annually as the U.K. moves toward greener energy and the electric bus system continues.
Counselor John Bint, Cabinet Member for Transport and Highways, explains to BBC News: "This electric bus trial is the result of over a year's careful planning, so getting bus drivers behind the wheel is a wonderful milestone to reach. Seeing all eight buses on the route will be a very proud moment for everyone who's been involved."
In response to public demand, it's time to make a MAX-ified pickup truck.
Maybe 'demand' is overstating the case; it's not like folks are telling me, "Put all the money in this bag and nobody gets hurt, and while you're at it, make a high mileage pickup." It's more like, "Sure, MAX is cool, but..." followed by a description of their particular needs, followed by "...and gets a hundred miles per gallon."
I used to explain why their particular needs were incompatible with 100 mpg, and why small and light and streamlined are essential ingredients if you want three-digit mileage on a beer budget, just like I used to explain why a walk-in closet and two bathrooms are incompatible with a 100-square-foot tiny house*. My father used to describe these folks as, "He wants to be an astronomer, but he doesn't want to work nights."
But I've mellowed out somewhat. Unlike the 100-square-foot thing**, that 100-mpg thing is an arbitrary line in the sand, so now when people describe their vehicular needs, I ask, "What's a reasonable mileage target for that?" and we get to talking.
These needs commonly include space for an occasional third person, and occasional building supplies, and an occasional half ton of produce to the Farmer's Market, and an occasional ATV or riding mower, and (here in the Pacific Northwest at least) a way to keep the cargo dry—all of which can be achieved by a small pickup truck with bench seats and a removable canopy.
And for our mileage target? According to FuelEconomy.gov, the best mileage small pickup you can buy today is the Toyota Tacoma 2WD, with 21/25/23 mpg for city/highway/combined. I suspect we can double that, using the same principles we used with MAX—we can't go as far as the MAX car regarding weight, drag, and powerplant (not if we still want a practical pickup, which we do), but we can make significant improvements in all those areas, and I think 42/50/46 mpg is within reach.
Furthermore, I think we can do it on a beer budget — domestic beer, no less — $7,500 for the whole project, which is ¾ of what it took to make MAX. It should take a lot less time, too, and the bulk of the time and money savings comes from starting with the job half-done — starting with an existing vehicle instead of starting with a pile of steel tubing.
So we've purchased a 1994 Toyota HiLux, with mumbledymumble miles on the odometer, and if you look carefully at the body, you'll note various paint shades from factory red to oxidation pink, depending on the history of the various body parts. I suspect this truck has had a difficult life, but it drives straight, and it stops with minimal drama when I push the brake pedal, and the shifter shifts with alacrity, so I think it's a decent base for this project.
Now what it needs is a good name. Until someone suggests a better one, we'll call it MPX for Mother's Pickup Experiment.
*I live in what used to be known as a cute little cabin, and is now known as a "tiny house". It's about a hundred square feet inside but it's bigger on the outside because it has hewn log walls—see, I told you it was cute!
**In my neck of the woods, if you go over 100 square feet you need a building permit. My cabin is on wheels, so it's a trailer, not a building. BTW, log cabin construction is a poor choice for mileage, but I doubt I'll be driving it much.

It is barely two weeks after Green Up Day and roadsides that were clean are already littered with cans and bottles. When Vermont's bottle bill, among the first in the nation, was passed in 1972, the deposit on beer and soda containers was established at five cents. Forty years later, the deposit is still five cents. Had the original five-cent deposit been adjusted for inflation, it would now be roughly 25 cents. This helps to explain why bottle redemption centers are hard to find and why Vermont's roadsides are littered with cans and bottles.
Nowadays, there is negligible economic incentive to redeem containers for the five-cent deposit. Instead, we rely on people's willingness to "do the right thing" and most Vermonters do. My concern is with those who don't. A deposit of $1.50 per six-pack would provide a bit more incentive not to toss cans and bottles onto our roadsides. It might provide incentive for walkers and industrious children to gather discarded returnable containers.
Finally, it would increase the volume of returnables at bottle redemption centers, allowing their operators to be better compensated for unpleasant but important work. Here in the Mad River Valley, our sole bottle redemption center operates on a reduced schedule because of low volume.
Beverage industry and retail grocery lobbies have long opposed bottle deposit bills and any attempt to expand them. Sometimes they argue that the deposit represents a "tax" on consumers. If so, I wish all my taxes were like bottle deposit "taxes"—refundable. Lobbyists also argue that recycling is more cost effective than container deposits. This is true, though not by much. More importantly, recycling alone, because it lacks a financial incentive and in certain cases imposes a small cost penalty, does not and will not keep cans and bottles off our roadsides and out of rivers and streams.
This letter is inspired by an observation my wife and I made as we patrolled our road before the most recent Green Up Day. There are simply more cans and bottles on the roadside than there were a few years ago. Well, as my grandfather might have said, "A nickel ain't what it used to be." It is time for Vermont legislators to show the same wisdom they showed 40 years ago and bring a good 20th-century law into the 21st century.

After Monitor Quits, Arab League Defends Its Syrian Peace-Keeping Mission
Originally published on Thu January 12, 2012 1:09 pm
The Arab League defended the legitimacy of its mission in Syria, today, after one of its monitors quit, saying the peace mission was a "farce."
In an interview with Al-Jazeera, yesterday, Anwar Malek, who is Algerian, said that the observers had been fooled.
"What I saw was a humanitarian disaster," he said. "The regime is not just committing one war crime, but a series of crimes against its people.
"The snipers are everywhere shooting at civilians. People are being kidnapped. Prisoners are being tortured and none were released," he added.
Reuters reports that Gen. Mohammed al-Dabi, the head of the Arab monitors' mission to Damascus, pushed back against the claims strongly saying Malek "did not leave the hotel for six days and did not go out with the rest of the team into the field giving the excuse that he was sick."
And just as al-Dabi did that, another observer came forward and threatened to quit. This observer spoke to Reuters from Syria by telephone and said he was "appalled" by what he had seen.
"There is oppression. There is strong oppression and there is suffering, a lot of suffering, more than you imagine," he said.
The observer would not allow his name to be used, reports Reuters, because he was not authorized to speak to press.
Here's video of Al-Jazeera's report:

The new Catholic Common Ground
David Gibson June 18, 2012 - 10:34am
Liberal New York Times columnist Bill Keller and conservative Catholic League crusader Bill Donohue have found it -- in Wild Bill's latest book, "Why Catholicism Matters."As Keller (a self-described "collapsed Catholic," a nifty neological step beyond "lapsed" Catholic) puts it in his op-ed today about Bill D's thesis:
His [Donohue's] point: Quite frankly I believe, as Pope Benedict the XVIth said just before he became pope, that maybe a smaller church would be a better church.Much as I wish I could encourage the discontented, the Catholics of open minds and open hearts, to stay put and fight the good fight, this is a lost cause. Donohue is right. Summon your fortitude, and just go. If you are not getting the spiritual sustenance you need, if you are uneasy being part of an institution out of step with your conscience then go. The restive nuns who are planning a field trip to Rome for a bit of dialogue? Be assured, unless you plan to grovel, no one will be listening. Sisters, just go. Bill Donohue will hold the door for you.
So Bill and Bill have something in common with the Freedom From Religion Foundation, which has been running their ad telling Catholics "It's Time to Quit the Catholic Church." (Oh, and start sending your money to the FFRF instead...That ad space is expensive.)It is a truth universally acknowledged that opposite extremes will meet each other on the far side. This seems to be the case as well.I'll settle for that deeper, broader, more satisfying -- if crowded and complex and maddening -- Common Ground, thanks.
Commenting Guidelines
Can't wait to hear from the Keller/NYT haters.Unfortunately, the center has collapsed - saw a piece on CNN last night on how our toung continue to lose faith in God even.In the current divided turmoil, my guess is it wil get worse before it gets better (maybe far off?)
The NYT is making news today. Irish Central reports (6/18) "Maureen Dowd to receive Irish civic reception and honorary degree -- Irish Prime Minister to attend ceremony for New York Times writer". The National University of Ireland Galway will present the degree next week. No plans to protest the degree are reported, but reader comments are harsh. http://www.irishcentral.com/news/Maureen-Dowd-to-receive-Irish-civic-rec...
Conservative American Catholics enjoy inveighing against liberal Catholics, so it would be a shame to take such enjoyment out of the lives of conservative American Catholics.However, liberal American Catholics who would prefer to see changes in the Roman Catholic Church should stand forewarned that Pope Benedict XVI and the Catholic bishops do not plan to allow any significant changes to be made in the church's teachings or in church law.
http://www.nzherald.co.nz/world/news/article.cfm?c_id=2&objectid=1081374... Pope has just informed of oh his personal incompetence. He should resign and find somebody who can deal with clergy sex abuse."It's a mystery?"That is the single most clueless comment I have ever heard about the clergy sex abuse crisis..
Something tells me Cardinal Dolan won't be getting many Irish accolades anytime soon, least not from his fellow bishops:
Vatican report critical of culture and ethos of Irish College in RomePATSY McGARRY, Religious Affairs CorrespondentFri, Jun 15, 2012A REPORT carried out by the Archbishop of New York for Pope Benedict XVI, which expressed concern about the atmosphere, structure, staffing and guiding philosophy of the Irish College in Rome, contained significant errors of fact, Irelands four Catholic archbishops have said.
Congratulations to Maureen. (Her column yesterday was another great one.)And congratulations to Bill Keller for the excellent op-ed this morning. I wonder if those who dislike the NYT in general and Keller (and Dowd) in particular will be able to point to anything untrue in their pieces.(When I asked if there was anything untrue in the FFRF ads, Donohue quoted me in something he wrote, and Mollie, editor of Commonweal, quoted HIM and explained what I "would be the first to tell" him. Eeeuww. Creepy and creepier.) Those who feel uncomfortable in a country (or city) club that refuses to allow women to participate, that courts antisemites, that spends enormous amounts of time and money oppressing gays, etc., do not hesitate to quit.
Post Keller/Donahue: a new coat of arms for the SArchdiocese of Ny with e legend "All hope abandon...."
Gerelyn, I didn't realize the Catholic Church was a country club! Now I'll never leave. I've always wanted to be in a country club but could never afford it, much less get past the social hurdles. Could someone send me a pink Lacoste shirt and point the way to the golf course?
Cant wait to hear from the Keller/NYT haters.I love the Times, but I could do without Bill Keller (and Maureen Dowd) writing about Catholicism. People like Keller never address the problem for "liberal" Catholics, which is that if they believe what Catholics believe, there is pretty much no place for them to go if they leave the Church. If they believe in Apostolic Succession, the Catholic Church (and the Eastern Orthodox Church) has the sacraments and other churches do not. If the sacraments (Eucharist, Reconciliation) and the Mass mean anything to them, then they are not going to get them anywhere else.Now, I can understand why some liberal Catholics might say to themselves that if the Church weres really what it claimed to be, there would not have been a mishandled sex-abuse crisis, that women would be treated better, and so on. So I can understand why some liberal Catholics would just lose their faith over issues that trouble them, and concluded thatmore important than the issues that trouble themthe Catholic Church simply cannot be the "one true Church" under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, as claimed. For those people, it would not be "liberal issues" that would cause them to leave the Church. It would be a loss of faith in the "big things" that the Church teaches. If you are a liberal who believes the Church is fundamentally right, but is wrong on "liberal" issues, then I would think you have no choice but to stay and "fight the good fight." If you believe that women should be ordained, for example, you must believe there is something very significant about the priesthood. Why would you leave the Catholic Churchand the priesthoodbehind because you were angry that women could not be ordained? If women cannot be Catholic priests in the Church, they certainly can't be Catholic priests outside the Church.
David Gibson: News flash: You're not an ordained priest or a bishop, so you are not in the country club.
"Conservative American Catholics enjoy inveighing against liberal Catholics, so it would be a shame to take such enjoyment out of the lives of conservative American Catholics."Exactly! We're sour enough all by ourselves - don't take away one of our few pleasures. Besides, think how much harder it would be to warn our children against sin and heresy if we lose all our exemplars. We'd have to start throwing stones at Protestants again. Not to mention, who would teach in our schools and institutions of higher learning, or staff our parishes, or direct or choirs, or ...
(Bishops always go first class. Ever notice that? Just like Jesus.)
Can I ask abut Pope Benedict's comment about "a smaller, purer church'? I've often heard references to it. I had thought it meant that while there might be fewer Catholics, those of us who remain are here, not out of custom or fear of going to hell or something, but we're here because we want to be. I never assumed it meant we had to pass some more rigid doctrinal litmus test. What was the context in which the Pope made that statement?
Amen, Jim P...I'd add that the conservative "dream" of the smaller but purer church seems to consist of a large fantasy that it would be easier to control, more unified. I think perusing no small number of conservative Catholic websites, not mention the whole SSPX drama, should disabuse anyone of such a notion. Fractious, schismatic, dissenting, disputatious folks they are. Much like the rest of us.
To demonstrate decisively that the Catholic Church is not a country club (if the lack of a golf course doesn't establish it beyond reasonable doubt), visit the bathroom of any Catholic church. Country club washrooms have so many after-shaves, hair products, skin creams, and unknown emollients and unguents spread out that there is barely enough room left to do one's business. Every Catholic church bathroom I've ever patronized treats toilet tissue, hand towels, deoderizers and heat as optional extras.
Irene, it's a consistent thread of thought running through Benedict/Ratzinger's thought that the church is entering a "wintertime" rather than a "springtime" (as JP2 would have it) and that there will be a paring away down to the mustard seed of more devout, orthodox Catholics who would provide the seedbed for a future renewal of a more authentic Catholicism. Sort of the Catholic version of a post-apocalyptic scenario, like "The Beach." As pope, Ratzinger has toned it down a bit, which is natural given his new role. But it is still there. I actually agree with him to some degree, in that I think places like Bose and Taize and other communities of faith will provide a kind of lamp to light the way forward, if the institutional church doesn't get with the program. Ratzinger also refers to different levels of participation in the church (per Augustine, I believe), content to have some members remain members but on the margins. In reality, I think you wind up driving the margins out completely. But I think Ratzinger sees this "smaller" church as about who controls the levers of power and authority in the church -- who gets to say what is what -- whereas the other "petite eglise" is about witness, which also has a certain authority.
Thank you, David
What was the context in which the Pope made that statement?Irene,There is a thread from October 2010 that raises the question whether he made the statement at all, or whether other things he said are appropriately summarized by a description he never used himself. A smaller but purer Church?October 21, 2010, 9:07 amPosted by Joseph A. Komonchak
And, thank you, Other David, that thread you linked to generated some very strong comments.
Two very different visions of Church are on a collision course at present. Read the new interview with Sr Pat Farrell, LCWR president, published today on NCRs website: http://ncronline.org/news/women-religious/lcwr-president-not-sure-what-c...
Rather than a collision course, perhaps a further path of alienation
"liberal Catholics" stay because we are what makes the Church catholic. The "smaller, purer Church" advocates want to drive out those who disagree while we want to welcome people in. The "border guards" want to define people out while we want people who will offer forgiveness. We have already had the smaller purer church, when Jesus and his mother lived without sin. That mustard seed has grown into a big bush with all kinds of birds flitting in, out and about.
"Conservative American Catholics enjoy inveighing against liberal Catholics, so it would be a shame to take such enjoyment out of the lives of conservative American Catholics."That image rings a vague bell, somewhere ... I almost think I ran across it somewhere else recently, before I prepared this past weekend's homily, touting the Fortnight for Freedom.
Sorry, in the previous comment, I meant to highlight this quote of Jim McK's: "That mustard seed has grown into a big bush with all kinds of birds flitting in, out and about." Somehow, my paste went awry.
"its a consistent thread of thought running through Benedict/Ratzingers thought that the church is entering a wintertime rather than a springtime (as JP2 would have it) and that there will be a paring away down to the mustard seed of more devout, orthodox Catholics who would provide the seedbed for a future renewal of a more authentic Catholicism."Perhaps a Eurocentric view of things, no?
Ugh. I thought that that was a ridiculous column by Mr. Keller. It's about the most poorly argued piece on the Catholic church I've seen this year. (And that's saying a lot.) Yes, the church is rife with sinful people. I'm one of them. But Mr. Keller is intelligent enough to know that it has always been filled with sinners--since the time of St. Peter. And yes, there are times when you disagree with one or another official statement, or even times when you feel like you are being forced out. Keller should also know that even some of the saints experienced that. (St. Mary MacKillop was excommunicated; St. Ignatius was thrown into jail by the Inquisition; and St. Joan of Arc was burned at the stake by ecclesiastical authorities to name but a few). But chief among other wrongheaded comments (like the absurd implication that many Catholic sisters are sticking around for the wrong reasons: Does it make sense that sisters who took a vow of poverty would be afraid of poverty?) is the notion that there is out there, somewhere, a perfect church that will meet all of your needs. Yet the search for a perfect church, free of sinners and wrongdoing, and fully in accord with your own way of doing things, is one without end. It is also a fairly one-sided argument. Also, overlooked completely is the idea that the church may need you. Overall, though, my baptism is all the sign I need that I'm called to be in the church. Really, though, it was a snotty article about an important topic. You would hope that an op-ed would help people in some way and I cannot imagine too many people benefiting from his kind of analysis.
Sory I missed your homily touting a Fortnight For Feedom, Jim; I'm sure I'd have been bemused.
I think Alex Pareene's "Hack List" writeup last year said pretty much all there is to say about Bill Keller's worth as an opinion columnist. Keller is only right, though, when he says "Bill Donohue will hold the door for you." It may be the most toxic thing about Donohue's work as defender of the church, as well as the most revealing -- his eagerness to identify threats from within.
But, The NUT editoralizes that the church is hurting children by blocking SOL legislation and cowing the NY governor.Donahue fires back.Keller fires back.The Sandusky trial rapidly goes on, showing institutional ineptitude,The Lynn trial drags on.The vatican conrinues its outrage about media leaks.And, of course, we have religious liberty and the Fortnight For Freedom.Keler and Donahue mightb e better off on a desert island together, but where is the hope for the common grounders?
I wrote a critical letter to the editor right away saying that I am currently hanging in there with the institution, even though I admiore Jim Callan, who is an old freind, and Corpus Christi is a wonderful commmunity. My only ongoing different point oif view from you, Father Jim, is your tone that to leave is somehow not keeping with one's baptismal calling and/or that the Church may need you. That leaves aside too easily (though I don't think you mean it that way) the personal pain and sense of call of nurturance provided in other communities. "Converts" don't just happen into Catholicsm, right? The Spirit blows where she will... and that may weel be apart from the Roman experience at this point for one's mental and spiritual health, right? I "stay" -- for now -- but it's not because the RC Church needs me. I've been more or less told that...
I enjoy watching the rants of Catholic League President, Bill Donohue aka the Catholic Archie Bunker, especially seeing his eyes light up with delight when the name, Maureen Dowd, comes up. I think he is sweet on her.
Interesting that Bill Donohue doesn't write everything that goes out from the Catholic League. Here's another name on a letter to the editor of the Boston Globe about "wayward sisters"
In her June 12 op-ed column Sisters of strength, Farah Stockman attributes the decline of American nuns to the lack of respect by the church hierarchy. This is patently false. The Catholic Church has long held the yeomans work of religious sisters in high esteem. What the Vatican has done recently is to put in motion a way to help reel in the wayward sisters who have mistaken their vows as one of social work. To deem this as a war on nuns is to misrepresent the issue.If such a war is being conducted, how is it that there is no end to the sisters who welcome the Vaticans statement as a way to help their fellow sisters? How is it that the more conservative orders are overwhelmingly receiving the lions share of new vocations? Indeed, there is no war against nuns in the Catholic Church, but this doesnt stop those whose agenda blinds them.Jeff FieldDirector of communicationsCatholic LeagueNew York
Two oxymorons:Pure CatholicismSmall CatholicismA caveat to those who love the "pure and small" idea: the religious authorities who desired to see Jesus dead also wanted a "purer" (smaller?) "church. Sinners need not apply. To the arrogant, self-assured and smug: the doors are always open. Jesus wouldn't be welcome, either, apparently.
'especially seeing his eyes light up with delight when the name, Maureen Dowd, comes up. I think he is sweet on her.'Even as a divorced/angry/ranting man, Donohue should not be eyeing good looking women. (-;
I wonder if Bill Keller (or Bill Donahue, for that matter) has read Dorothy Day's The Long Loneliness. "I loved the Church for Christ made visible," she wrote. "Not for itself, because it was so often a scandal to me." Later on in her life, she wrote a letter to Gordon Zahn that "as a convert, I never expected much of the bishops. In all history popes and bishops and father abbots seem to have been blind and power-loving and greedy. I never expected leadership from them. It is the saints that keep appearing all thru history who keep things going. What I do expect is the bread of life and down thru the ages there is that continuity." Dorothy Day, pray for us.
It is a straw man to say that disaffected Roman Catholics are looking for a church free of sinners, just as it is inaccurate to say that only the RCC can trace its roots back through apostolic succession. To stay or not, I think, revolves much more around whether you belonged to a cohort (with baby boomers probably being the last generational cohort) where a sizable majority of Catholics you knew formed an emotional attachment with the church, through Catholic school, service in local parishes, CCD sports leagues and the like. So my mother was part of such a cohort, I was too, but less so, and my children? Not at all. They aren't even baptized. It doesn't mean they would never become Catholic, but being Catholic in their world will be much more like being any other form of Christian -- a matter of informed choice, not upbringing. That's what has changed, although you would not know it by talking to most conservative or liberal Catholics. Ask yourself how many liberal Catholics defend their choice to stay in terms of not having the church of their birth or their beloved church or their sense of family or community being taken away from them -- that's what I'm talking about.
I wonder if we should approach the musical question "should I stay or should I go?" (thanks, Clash,) with the same hermeneutic that we might use to evaluate spiritual practices generally. Am I more loving inside the Church or outside it? Am I kinder, more cognizant of the needs of others and myself? Do I love God better here or not here? We are, after all, commanded to love as well as we can. For some, the grinding pain of sticking around becomes spiritually toxic, and leaving can be liberation for love. For others, the "fighting the good fight" is spiritually growthful overall, despite the cost in pain. I'm arguing for a stance of Ignatian availability. One listens closely for where and how God calls us, standing "as with one foot raised" (as Ignatius put it,) ready to dig in or to "shake the dust from your feet," (as Jesus put it.) And to truly trust God, praying always for the grace of good discernment, means that tomorrow or next week or next year the answer might be different.
Lisa, one thing I'd add to your comment is to discern where one might go...As a convert and as someone who covers the entire religious waterfront, I am perhaps more sensitive to currents elsewhere, but it's important to realize that if one is going to be "religious" in any sensing of belonging (something I support heart and soul) then one is always going to find these problems to one degree or another. I have witnessed and reported on the ugliest disputes among Unitarians and Quakers and of course Episcopalians and Baptists. There is no perfect community, alas, and the splendid isolation of personal spirituality is an increasingly popular choice, but one that I think has truly serious shortcomings for the individual and the wider community. That said, there can always be good reasons to move elsewhere. When asked why I converted my rimshot answer is because I am a straight white male -- the Catholic Church is the perfect place for me! My point, of course, is that for a woman or homosexual or person of color, quite often, being Catholic is a daily challenge from those in authority to one's very identity and even existence. Only the strongest Christians survive that.
NYT paradigm in action:1) identify neglected problem (dissenters need charity so they can leave more easily)2) propose "just love" solution (throw money)3) get someone else to pay for it (rich, fat Cardinals)4) feel good (the NYT choir resounds - what a bold pundit)

Abe Rosenthal was a great editor (better than Keller) who turned into a bad columnist afterward. I don't know which journalist decided editors can be columnists and vice versa, but the skill sets are entirely different, and the result of acting on that belief always disappoints someone.Having noted that, let me add that if I could quit something, before the Catholic Church it would be the drone-firing, gun-toting, Jamie Dimon-coddling, executive privilege-abusing, sensartion-of-the-day seeking, slander e-mailing, congressionally bloviating, McConnell-coddling, lobbyist-bought (and a lot of other things) gummint of these here United States.

I will share with others...David... also helpful and so very true - no utopian commiunities Patrick... great analysisGerelyn.. read that review and will order"In His will is our peace." Dante"Heart's desire and circumstances come together to define a path. The way of possibility and necessity turnolut to be one and the same." slight paraphrase rom "Dunne's "Reason's of theh Heart..."
. . . just as it is inaccurate to say that only the RCC can trace its roots back through apostolic succession.Barbara,I didn't say only the Catholic Church is the only church with unbroken apostolic succession. I said if you believe what Catholics believe, then you believe only Catholics and the Eastern Orthodox (and undoubtedly a group or two that I don't know of, since this is one of those things I have trouble keeping in my head) descended directly from Jesus and the apostles.The point is that if you are a believing Catholic, it seems to me difficult to justify leaving the Church because of the abuse scandal, the treatment of women, the teachings on contraception, the treatment of gays, and so on. If you are a believing Catholic (it seems to me), then you believe the Catholic Church is the "one true Church," and as disturbing as you find all the things you don't like about the Church, that simply can't outweigh the fact that it is the "one true Church." If parish life and Sunday mass aren't "nourishing," go to mass on Saturday and find a "nourishing" group to spend Sunday with. It seems to me you don't quit the "one true Church" because you disagree on peripheral issues, no matter how deeply you feel about them.
"Sory I missed your homily touting a Fortnight For Feedom, Jim; Im sure Id have been bemused."Hey, Bob - I meant my tongue to be planted in cheek in that comment, but I tripped so badly on it that my tongue ended up ... well, never mind where. In fact, I really did preach this past weekend, but in an appalling example of tunnel vision, I stuck to the appointed lectionary texts and tried to connect them to Father's Day.As it happens, we did have a presentation directly after mass, by a speaker from - drumroll, please - the Thomas More Society. Didn't catch it, though, so nothing to report from me.
Amen, Fr. Martin.It is one thing for a person to say that either his conscience or his intellectual integrity required him to leave the church. (One would expect -- and maybe even hope -- that a person who has left the church would have something like this to say.) It is another thing for a "collapsed Catholic" to say, in effect, "Do what I did -- leave the church -- or you're a troglodyte."And it is still another thing to echo that sentiment here, and to do so on the assumption that nobody at dotCommonweal will mind very much if you describe the Church as "a club that refuses to allow women to participate, that courts antisemites, that spends enormous amounts of time and money oppressing gays." That list of casual put-downs might make even Maureen Dowd blush. By all means, Gerelyn, do not hesitate to quit, but if the church is all that you say it is -- and no more -- then you should not just quit but put it behind you; it has already wasted enough of your time. It makes sense for Catholics of every kind, including those who dissent, to spend time following every excruciating detail of these ecclesial controversies. But it makes very little sense to declare that sensible, decent people can no longer have anything to do with this backwards institution and then go on talking about this institution's inner life as if you had a stake in it.
Matthew B.. I concur
Matthew, why would put quotation marks around something Keller said "in effect", i.e., in YOUR imagination? (Any places left at your table at the Chelsea Piers event? I'm trying my best to scrape up the $2500 to eat dinner with you.)
Because that's the way you punctuate a sentence like that. You may not accept my characterization of Keller's position (I almost called it an argument!), but please don't pretend the quotation marks are misleading.
I stay for now but its not because the RC Church needs me.Ultimately the Roman Catholic Church needs everyone, I think. The question is, in what position are we most helpful for our Church? I am watching the negotiations of the Vatican with the SSPX and wondering if it will provide a model showing how to influence the Church from the outside. They handled tensions by going into schism. But they seem to be viewed with great sympathy and attention, and, with the publication of the motu proprio, have already had an impact. On the other hand, the people who do, with difficulty, stay inside the church while voicing their reservations, are more or less ignored. It makes me wonder if, strategically, the SSPX are not more effective agents of change. Is it conceivable that the best way to serve our Church might be, not to stay in formal communion, but to organize a schismatic group??

2014 Winner(s)
Marta Mestrovic Deyrup
professor and librarian for technical services, Italian, Russian and East European Studies at Seton Hall University
"This project exemplifies the commitment of WESS-SEES librarians to identify and preserve cultural heritage materials published by and about ethnic groups living within or dispersed among larger communities," said award chair Heidi Madden of Duke University.
Deyrup's project focuses on Italian-language resources published by and about the Italian minority communities of Dalmatia and Istria for the past two centuries and will involve substantial archival work. This research will result in an annotated bibliography, a directory of the publishing houses in Croatia and Italy that handle these materials and a narrative addressing the historical and cultural significance of these resources.

Went to my doctor today and she did underlying condition blood work. She did a thrombophilia panel and APS (antiphospholipid syndrom), and MTHFR workup, as well as tested Factor V Leiden and lups anticoagulant. My bp was high at the office, but I brought in my cuff and we checked it with that too...My cuff is working great and my pressures at home are 110-120...avg 112-115 over 68-80 avg 70-75 at home even though at the doc on both cuffs I read 140/90...so she is not worried since my bp is only up there. She talked about the vascular relationship between migraines, raynauds, and pre-e. She started me on prenatal vitamins, I got my B-12 shot I get every 3 months, and I will be starting on baby asprin when we get this going. She is getting my records from my old OB and the hospital in SC and then is referring me to a peri in Louisiana that I will see for a preconception appt. at my mom's in March. ( I am in alaska and will not be delivering here and will have to leave the island early. We do not have OB's or a hospital)
I still do have a fairly decent sized fibroid but is is not causing me any issues at the time, so she said to wait and see what the peri thinks of it, but she doesn't think it will cause a problem other than a risk of miscarriage if it implants near it. Anyway, I feel good that I am finally having the test done and then we will go from there. Anyone else been tested for underlying disorders?

The STOKKE SLEEPI mattress is a well-ventilated mattress that helps reduce the body's need for transpiration which lead to less moist. The mattress is covered with a knitted polyester fabric that allows the air to circulate under the mattress and through the holes in the crib bottom. A waved profile allows the air to circulate better under the mattress and help the moist being transported out of the mattress system.
The mattress is made of high quality polyurethane foam and is specially developed for mattress use. To increase ventilation and comfort, the mattress has a waved base and the underside of the cover is made of netting. The mattress cover is also made of 100% quilted cotton fabric.
The mattress foam has excellent ventilation properties due to cell structure. Heat and moist from the body is effectively transported off and ensures a dry, hygienic and comfortable sleeping surface.
Use this mattress with the Junior Bed Conversion Kit (sold separately) to transition from toddler to elementary years.
Gift Wrap not available.

Did he know it was Steve Jobs' house or was it just a coincidence?
Man who broke into Steve Jobs' home gets seven year prison sentence
Kariem McFarlin, the man who burglarized the home of the late Steve Jobs back in July has been sentenced to 7 years in a California state prison for stealing over $60,000 in items from the Jobs' home as well as technology and jewelry from homes in other surrounding areas.
35 year old McFarlin was arrested back in August after Apple and REACT (Rapid Enforcement Allied Computer Team) were able to track iTunes purchases to serial numbers of devices that were owned the Jobs family. He admitted to the crimes as well as additional robberies.
McFarlin admitted to the burglary under questioning by Palo Alto police and said he had stolen from other homes in the San Francisco Bay Area, including two homes in Marin County, four homes in San Francisco County and one home in Alameda County.
He admitted keeping hundreds of thousands of dollars' worth of property from those burglaries at his home and at a storage locker. The property included computers, jewelry, furniture and a solid silver bar, according to the Santa Clara District Attorney's office.
At the time of his arrest, McFarlin stated that he had done it due to money issues. Aside from his prison sentence of 7 years, he's also been ordered to pay restitution to the families that were stolen from.

Man who broke into Steve Jobs' home gets seven year prison sentence
Nice...now if someone could track down and lock up this stinking spammer, I'd much appreciate it.
Are you trying to imply that the ProfitWebSystem, available now for the low, low price of $97, and posted into forums and comments all over the net, is a scam?!? :-D
Yeah, 7 years for all those posting bozos as well.
I love my job which is hunting down these ahole spammers and forcing them to kill themselves in front of their cheering families since even their own families hate their magot spamming relative.
Coming for you HamiltonHary.
I dont like spammers either, but what you just said is a threat and you can have charges brought against you. You have an IP address and it does not take long for police to track you and charge you. Good luck.
IP spoofing, and water boarding. Remember he kills himself I never get my hands dirty. Or is that wet? Banksters or Spammers same desease. Same solution.

Chaffee showcases Vermont's diverse artBy Jim Lowe
Staff Writer | February 13,2013Vermont is said to have more artists per capita than any state in the United States. While this is not easily verifiable, this state is certainly home to some very fine visual artists.
On Friday, the Chaffee Arts Center will open an exhibit showcasing some of the area's finest artists at its Main Street location, Chaffee Downtown. The annual "Full House Exhibit" will feature work by Katherine Langlands, Brian Sylvester, Richard Weis and Johanne Durocher Yordan, and run through March 23. The exhibit opens with a public reception 5 to 8 p.m. Friday.
Langlands' "The Ladies" is a series of 17 interconnected paintings of women first exhibited in July 2011 in Hollywood, along with designer Isabelle Donola's apparel collection inspired by the art.
"Every canvas is first layered with pages from books, creating depth to the figures and filling the vacant faces with tumbled literary passages," Apparel News blog said of the show.
"Each painting hangs as its own entity — collectively the series vibrates and harmonizes," the review continued. "At times the ladies may appear vulnerable and exposed and in other instances they look at ease and self-assured. Langlands has created a stunning collection that probes the compilation of Everywoman."
Langlands was born and raised in Vermont and currently splits her time between Vermont and Los Angeles. Her family owns and operates Darkside Snowboards. She graduated from the University of Vermont with a degree in art and has exhibited in Vermont, Oregon and Los Angeles.
Langlands was chosen along with eight other artists out of a pool of 700 submissions to exhibit "The Ladies" at the first annual UVM Alumni Art Show in October 2011.
Sylvester, a Rutland artist, describes himself as "a traditional brush-to-canvas painter."
"My 15 years working in floriculture are one of the many influences of my current work," Sylvester said in his artist's statement. "I am exploring the way that abstract forms and bold colors can carry deep and complex meaning in our lives, be they the decorative and architectural elements in the structures we create around us, such as portals, gates and façades in tile, brick and iron, or the spiritual imagery of devotional mandalas that seem to combine the geometry of both the natural and spiritual world."
He added: "I'm finding that there is indeed a universal place where art and science, the sacred and the mundane can meet, in certain forms and colors that seem to appeal to us unconsciously on a variety of levels, and hope to take this exploration further."
Sylvester has exhibited at the Southern Vermont Art Center in Manchester and the Somerville (Mass.) Museum, as well as the Chaffee in Rutland and galleries in Massachusetts and West Virginia.
Richard Weis, a retired Green Mountain College art professor of 21 years, will be represented by "The Ladder Series."
"During the last 30 years I have frequently allowed my paintings to come off the wall," Weis said in his statement.
"Sometimes this has involved free-standing works, works that were displayed on the floor, and works that had three-dimensional elements projecting into or occupying the viewer's space."
"The Ladder Series" is the most recent of these explorations.
"The first work in the series, 'Kuskurza,' was thought to be a one-of-a-kind piece; I had no plans to develop a series," Weis said. "However, the artist does not always have total control over the process and more works utilizing a ladder metaphor began to emerge. Although some of these works have been shown individually, this is the first time I have been able to show a group of them together.
"Much like my other work, the process is fluid, beginning with a basic structural/metaphorical idea and then evolving as the work progresses—sometimes into totally unexpected directions," Weis said.
Weis, who lives in Castleton with his sculptor-wife Nancy Pulliam Weis, has exhibited widely in the United States as well as in Canada, Wales and South Korea. In 2010 his work was included in a traveling exhibition, "Cross
Cultural Visions," celebrating the 60th anniversary of the Fulbright Program in South Korea. The exhibition venues included New York City, Washington, D.C., and Seoul.
Yordan, who lives in Burlington, describes herself as a self-taught artist.
"As an adult I went back to school to redefine what it was I wanted to accomplish with my art," she said in her statement.
Yordan attended classes at the University of Vermont over a two-year period, which she said helped her to grow as an artist.
"After experimenting with my art for a while, a life-altering event caused a complete shift in how I painted," she said.
Prior to this shift, Yordan painted about what she saw and knew — still life and landscapes.
"It then became more about what I felt and about pushing the boundaries of how I had previously painted," she said. "This release allowed me to paint with freedom and emotion, which for me led to a very different means of expression, a very abstract expression."
Abstract painting has led to more exploration and experimentation.
"Some paintings are deliberate and are meant to evoke specific emotions while others are an exploration of technique, color and texture," Yordan said. "Many of my paintings are well planned while others are very impromptu.
Some of my paintings have included found or collected items which add depth and meaning to combine form and function to my work."
Over the past 12 years, Yordan have exhibited in many solo and group exhibitions as well as commissioned work, mostly in the Burlington area and Quebec.
"I continue to pursue every avenue so that I may share what I love to do with others," she said. "Art imitates life and is a continual process of growth, experiences and curiosity."MORE IN This Just InBy Kathleen Phalen Tomaselli Full StoryBennington College and Middlebury College both top a list for most entrepreneurial colleges in...

Printing Press - Clymer Dixon & Co., Columbian, 1851 Reg. No: ST 038521
- Summary:
- The Columbian Press is an Iron Standing Press, built by Clymer Dixon and Co. of 10 Finsbury Street, London England in 1851.
The Press was donated by T. B. McDiarmid & Sons. The company was established in 1905 by Thomas Bartlett McDiarmid and his brother Jack. They were joined by another brother, William, in 1913. The business specialised in stereotyping and electrotyping. Their acquisition of the Columbian Press is not recorded.
A forme was placed on the iron bed of the press and inked by roller or ink ball; a sheet of paper was placed on the open tympan; the frisket was closed down over the tympan to hold the paper in place and the whole folded down over the type forme, resting slightly above the inked type. The bed was then wound under the platen by a handle attached to a central rounce under the bed, the handle pulled forward brought the platen down and an impression was taken. The handle was pushed back and impression lifted and the bed wound back out, where the tympan was lifted off, frisket was lifted off the tympan and the printed sheet removed.
- Description:
- Hand printing press of heavy construction with ornate cast iron columns surmounted by cast eagle. Elaborately moulded serpents and fish decorations.
- Acquisition Information:
- Cultural Gifts Donation from T.B. Mcdiarmid & Sons (Vic) Pty Ltd

|Peter Marsh states: On standing presses bed and platen sizes are misleading as to the descriptive historical sizes used for presses and it is important to understand that different interpretations exist. Some historians use the platen size as press size. The platen of a press was the maximum area in which pressure could be placed on a type forme. The historical size of a standing iron press sh

Obama Calls for Climate Action After Winning 2012 Presidential Election – Here's What's Next for the Environment
President Obama photo from Shutterstock
President Obama won the 2012 US election last night, and in a powerful victory speech he called for climate action to address a nation that is "threatened by the destructive power of a warming planet". The statement came after a long campaign that barely mentioned the environment, so now we look to our Commander in Chief to see what he will do in the face of a rapidly changing climate. With a Republican-controlled House of Representatives filled with many who are skeptical of climate science, what will four more years mean for the regulation of greenhouse gas emissions, renewable energy, and the growth of our economy? Read on for a look at critical opportunities for the Obama Administration to combat climate change in the years to come.
After Hurricane Sandy, the issue of climate change and its effects are at the forefront of everyone's minds. American belief that climate change is a real and human-influenced phenomenon is at an all time high – according to current polls from the Yale Project on Climate Change Communication, 74% of the country now believes that global warming is affecting weather in the United States. With the added stress of a less than robust economy, those focused on job security and financial growth are also keeping an eye on how the environment will play a role in employment. Now that President Obama has been granted 4 more years in the White House, what can we expect from him in terms of climate action?

Greenhouse Gas Regulation
The regulation of greenhouse gas emissions is a fundamental step towards keeping climate change at bay, however with a Republican controlled house, legislation may be difficult to pass. The President's best hope in the immediate future is to rely upon mandates such as the Clean Air Act passed back in 1970 and Supreme Court Rulings that give the EPA the power to control emissions. With 40% of the country's total emissions coming from new power plants, strict enforcement of existing laws should come into play. The EPA has already drafted rules to limit CO2 from these plants, but applying these laws to already established sites will yield the most progress. According to analysis from Resources for the Future, a 5% cut in greenhouse gasses could put the country on target for the President's 2009 pledge to cut emissions 17% by the year 2020 from levels measured back in 2005.

Comments On Jul 05, 2015:They keep dirt and sand out of my rims. Not sure if it's necessary but I like them. Also keeps goofballs from tightening the valve stem nut to the rim which can cause flats due to ripped valve stems.

Comments On Aug 31, 2013:I like to snug up the valve stem, and only have one rimlock on front and rear KTM 450EXC 4Stroke. They keep stem up straight and I've run trials tire at 8PSI. Only tube problem was a pinch flat in rocks with very soft MX tire on front. I haven't seen any "scrubbing wear" anywhere on the tube or at valve stem area, plus there seems to be less "crap" in the tire when you do change them.
