"Whatever advances American manufacturing has made in the last 30 to 40 years, we owe to Joe Juran." --Peter Drucker No one in the last hundred years has had more influence on the worldwide practice of quality in business than Dr. Juran. The roots of Six Sigma, TQM, ISO 9000, and other major quality movements can all be found in his teachings and writings. In Architect of Quality, the man who helped invent and champion quality management systems, quality circles, and teams long before they became standard practice tells the inspiring story of his life.

Building on the experiences of scores of companies and hundreds of managers, J.M. Juran, the world-renowned quality pioneer, presents a new, exhaustively comprehensive approach to planning, setting, and reaching quality goals.

Pedestrian killed crossing street in Dumfries this morning (VIDEO)
UPDATE, 1:37 p.m.: Potomac Local reports that another pedestrian was hit by a car at the same commuter lot this week and police did not make a report.
ORIGINAL: A 38-year-old man was hit by a car and killed around 6:40 a.m. this morning in Dumfries, Va. Police say Miguel Zelaya-Jovel, 38, of Manassas, was apparently trying to cross the street from a McDonald's on Dumfries Road to a commuter lot where there is no crosswalk.
According to Potomac Local, the man was stuck by a Dodge Ram, whose driver stayed on the scene, as well as an older-style box van, whose driver did not; the second driver may not have been aware he'd hit someone. The victim was pronounced dead on the scene.
ABC7's Ben Eisler, who filed the report above, says that Zelaya-Jovel was hit at high speed in the highway. Prince William County police spokesman Jonathan Perok told Eisler that "it's not uncommon to see pedestrians crossing [here], and at that time of the morning it will be dark out and people won't be paying attention." Perok added, "You just can't cross randomly in the middle of the road."
"I was shocked," said one witness. "I was just more surprised the car didn't see the pedestrian."
In an unrelated crash, another pedestrian was hit by a car four miles away at Waterway and Edgewood Drives. It was a low-speed crash inside a crosswalk and the victim was flown out with non-life-threatening injuries. Police say the driver in this case will be charged.

I'm Your Biggest Fan
by Dallas Wayne
Released: Feb 2005
Label: Dw Productions
At times, Dallas Wayne sounds like a cross between John Anderson (of "Wild And Blue" fame) and Randy Newman (check Wayne's creepy character sketch, "I'm Your Biggest Fan"). This is New Country, sure, and meant for mass-consumption, but that fact does not take away from Wayne's oh-so-rich vocals and some decidedly sharp songwriting. Hopefully folks will catch on.

Below is the poem entitled Twins Revenge which was written by poet
Nutter. Please feel free to comment on this poem. However, please remember, PoetrySoup is a place of encouragement and growth.
Read Poems by
Anthony Nutter
A. W. Nutter
Fog from my breath in the way
Temporarily impeding my vision
A small lamp, illuminates my prey
Unaware, of his impending execution
Rons wife, conveniently out of town
Visiting a sick relative, her perfect alibi
She must really despise this clown
I wonder if she kissed the fool goodbye
Staying in the shadows around the house
Dressed in black, invisible in the darkness
Entering their kitchen, quiet as a mouse
Through a window, left unlocked on purpose
From the first bedroom a child moans
Peering at the bed and the sleeping boy
The husband was supposed to be left alone
She'll pay dearly for this unexpected ploy
With the silencer in place I wake up Ron
He dresses quickly picking up his keys
Protesting will endanger his bastard son
He drives us deep into the forest of trees
Removing my mask he views his twin
Staring into the face of his supine form
Before he can protest I commit the sin
Then pray for God to help me reform
Burning the body along with the gun
Quickly driving home to start my new life
Showering, I slip into bed with my son
Real father and mother now husband and wife

The City of Light pays tribute to the cinematic arts from July 5 to July 12, 2014 during a festival called Paris Cinema. The festival returns for its 12th edition this year, honoring new releases as well as grand classics. Guests staying at the Hôtel de la Tour Maubourg should not miss their chance to participate in the event, which combines glamor and art, this summer.
Most notably, two cinemas — the Gaumont Opera Capucines and the Louxor — will roll out the red carpet to welcome the premiers of some big films. However, the tradition goes that the films premiering at the Paris Cinema Festival are not announced until a few weeks after the Cannes Film Festival.
For those looking for a more classic experience, a cinema called the Nouveau Latina in the 4th arrondissement will screen many old films that have been restored.
This year, the festival will also focus on the contribution of French film by revealing never-before-seen films, homages to legendary figures, master classes, debates and conferences. What's more, a special event called 'Paris vu par…' ('Paris Seen by…') allows international figures who reside in Paris to craft their own vision of the magical city.
One activity that is making its debut at the 2014 edition of Paris Cinema is an outdoor screening event that will take place at the Berges de Seine. On nights throughout the festival, the open air events will include cinema concerts, cinema remixes, and giant cinema karaoke.
Therefore, this film festival offers a little something for every kind of cinema fan from the lively and boisterous to the reserved and intellectual.

Closet Snoop: Stephanie Sanchez
CORPUS CHRISTI - Stephanie Sanchez admitted that she didn't have any sense of fashion when she was younger. But sometime around age 19, she said something just clicked and she's been inspired ever since.
Sanchez likes to push the envelope with her fashion choices sometimes, while other times she prefers a more timeless look. Her favorite aspect of fashion is that it is constantly evolving and changing. She said it's an "exciting venture" every time she goes shopping.
Three words to describe my wardrobe: edgy, classy, and versatile.
I wouldn't be caught dead wearing: cheetah print. Personally, I feel it looks horrid on me because it unbalances my skin tone and doesn't look appealing on me. Some people can wear that specific print and own it, but I cannot.
My most embarrassing fashion mishap/wardrobe malfunction: was one day when my heal heel broke while walking into work. I was completely blind sided, and the next thing I knew I was on the floor. To make it worse, people were watching and saw the whole thing.
Three accessories women definitely need are: first, stud earrings, real or fake, can really make even the simplest outfit; second, a nice watch that goes with everything, and third, a couple of James Avery rings to dress up a look whether it be casual or not.
I'll never throw out my: first Sinful shirt. It will forever have a place in my closet. It was the coolest and best designed shirt I ever purchased.
My best fashion steal to date: was a leather faux skirt I got from a DKNY outlet store. It was originally priced for over $100, and I got it on sale for $11 after taxes.
Fashion advice I'd give my best friend: Price tags don't always mean something is fashionable, always wear under eye concealer, and earrings are usually a must.
I spice up my wardrobe with: accessories. One of my pictures is in a plain $8 tank top, but I played it up with accessories.
I have a tough time shopping for: shoes. Most heels are uncomfortable, so it takes time to find some that are bearable.
I can't live without my: Movado watch because I can wear it with anything, including the occasional gym outfit.
The most comfortable item in my closet: is my casual polo T-shirts.
When I'm at home, I love to wear: sandals, jeans, a comfortable shirt, and under eye concealer. It's ridiculous, but putting on concealer is part of my morning routine, even if I'm not leaving the house.
I enjoy dressing up most for: every time I leave the house because you never know where the day will take you.
One of my best accessories: is a black beaded bracelet from Express that I wear with almost everything. It's modern and goes with almost any kind of outfit.
My favorite color to wear is: black. It is the most flattering for me.
I love shopping with: my mother and my sister. We give each other honest feedback.

The Professor and I researched phone plans, and found his university had a special rate through ATT, so it was not as expensive as we thought. Also, the Professor believes the old ways are best and rarely even texts. Apps are not for him. Bargain for me!
So now I have joined the masses of moms who love their iphones. Mine functions for me as a sort of second brain. I have my contacts, grocery list, calendar, well I don't need to tell you. Being an older mom, I feel as if I am on Star Trek, or something!
I know that other websites have evaluated apps for autism, and that many of my readers probably already have iphones or droids, but if you are one of the few who are new to technological advances, like me, I wanted to share.
One of my favorite apps is Is That Gluten Free? produced by MidLifeCrisis (gotta love the name!). This app is available for iphone, droid, and blackberry. It is a little pricely, as apps go, $7.99, but I have found it to be so useful! You can look up a product by categories, by brand, or search. Once you make your selection, the screen tells you if the product is gluten-free, date of validation, and the company statement about the product. There is also a link to the company's website and sometimes a phone number. In the "Brands" index, companies that are gluten-free are marked by a green dot. Those that are questionable have a yellow dot. For example, if cross-contamination or "natural flavors" are an issue, the reason is explained.
In addition, you can search those mysterious ingredients that have 28 letters in their name and find out if they are gluten-free or not. Those that are, marked in green; questionable marked in yellow; not gluten-free, in red. I am still of the opinion that if you can't pronounce an ingredient and don't know what it is, avoid it, but this is a great feature. Also, the product information is updated periodically, which is terrific too. This app does not help us with regard to avoiding casein, but I find that gluten is much more difficult to identify, especially in processed foods, than casein.
MidLifeCrisis also has a sister-app called Is That Gluten Free? Eating Out. I have not invested in this yet, since it looks like the data base is primarily fast-food or chain restaurants, however, this app is incredibly well designed too. You can look up Arby's, for example. Then you will get a menu. You can select an item and it will tell you the ingredients and which are safe. I can see how this might be handy for traveling, though we still tend to bring our own snacks as much as possible.
Since it is free, I have uploaded IEP Checklist, but have not had an IEP meeting since I got the app. The main features are the ability to take notes and make voice recordings during a meeting (which your iphone can do anyway), as well as link to the federal regulations website and IDEA. It seems geared mostly towards teachers, but I can see how it might be useful. IEP meetings are so stressful, that in my case, it might distract me from my role as a team member. On the other hand, it might be good to have specific IDEA guidelines bookmarked in advance for easy reference. But you don't need an app to do that, then again, there is the "second brain" convenience, mentioned above.
When I got my iphone, like most moms, I selected a few apps I thought the Prince would like to play with when waiting in lines, doctor's offices etc. I chose Star Walk and Google Earth, which feed into his Aspie love of astronomy and geography. Like many parents before me, I found my phone frequently disappearing at home and ending up in the Prince's bedroom!
So, after much consideration, we decided that Santa would bring the Prince and itouch for Christmas. I hesitated, since I thought it would increase his isolation, knowing his love for computer games. The games are great, but many of them do have repetitive features that are attractive to our children, though I have come to accept that sometimes that soothing element is necessary--with limits. But when I saw the number of apps on itunes in the "special education" category, I was sold--and many of these apps are free. (You can find a quick link to special education on the upper right corner in the apps section of itunes).
There are several for children with autism. Tap to Talk is similar to an augmentative and alternative communication device. I wish I had some of the picture schedule apps when the Prince was younger, such as the First Then Visual Schedule. Although I think there is merit to having the picture schedules displayed in your home or school, the app version would be nice to used when outside of the house, say, shopping, visiting Grandma, etc. There are many picture schedule apps to choose from. Another I like is My Choice Board. The Social Skills apps are also quite good, like Model Me Going Places, which provides social stories for common events like getting a haircut, riding the bus, etc. I think these apps might have saved me a lot of time cutting out and laminating picture schedules.
If you have an iphone, itouch, or ipad, I encourage you to explore the apps for your child. I can see that this is the wave of the future. The Holly Rod Foundation recently accepted applications for free ipads for children with autism, if the family met the financial requirements. They were so inundated, that after a month, they are no longer accepting applications. Shout out to Autism Speaks, maybe you could partner with The Holly Rod Foundation to expand this program?

Rosie Butter...
Heard my daughter and her friend using the term "Bromance." For those who are like me and not really sure what it means, it means: "A bromance is a close non-sexual relationship between two (or more) men." Kind of a new term for me for an old meaning. One of the many good things GL did in the early days was that they had romance, friendships and The Bromance. Rick and Phillip totally the best Bromance of all times! Fonzie and Richie Cunningham another one. Two of my fav in music would be Joe Perry and Steven Perry(Areosmith). Brad Pitt and George Clooney.

Reduced death and neurodevelopmental impairment among infants is a goal of perinatal medicine.
To assess the association between surgery during the initial hospitalization and death or neurodevelopmental impairment of very low-birth-weight infants.
Design, Setting, and Participants
A retrospective cohort analysis was conducted of patients enrolled in the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development Neonatal Research Network Generic Database from 1998 through 2009 and evaluated at 18 to 22 months' corrected age. Twenty-two academic neonatal intensive care units participated. Inclusion criteria were birth weight 401 to 1500 g, survival to 12 hours, and availability for follow-up. A total of 12 111 infants were included in analyses.
Surgical procedures; surgery also was classified by expected anesthesia type as major (general anesthesia) or minor (nongeneral anesthesia).
Main Outcomes and Measures
Multivariable logistic regression analyses planned a priori were performed for the primary outcome of death or neurodevelopmental impairment and for the secondary outcome of neurodevelopmental impairment among survivors. Multivariable linear regression analyses were performed as planned for the adjusted mean scores of the Mental Developmental Index and Psychomotor Developmental Index of the Bayley Scales of Infant Development, Second Edition, for patients born before 2006.
A total of 2186 infants underwent major surgery, 784 had minor surgery, and 9141 infants did not undergo surgery. The risk-adjusted odds ratio of death or neurodevelopmental impairment for all surgery patients compared with those who had no surgery was 1.29 (95% CI, 1.08-1.55). For patients who had major surgery compared with those who had no surgery, the risk-adjusted odds ratio of death or neurodevelopmental impairment was 1.52 (95% CI, 1.24-1.87). Patients classified as having minor surgery had no increased adjusted risk. Among survivors who had major surgery compared with those who had no surgery, the adjusted risk of neurodevelopmental impairment was greater and the adjusted mean Bayley scores were lower.
Conclusions and Relevance
Major surgery in very low-birth-weight infants is independently associated with a greater than 50% increased risk of death or neurodevelopmental impairment and of neurodevelopmental impairment at 18 to 22 months' corrected age. The role of general anesthesia is implicated but remains unproven.

Guide to the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of conditions from A to Z.
At the top of the CDC's list of primary risk factors for all chronic diseases are: smoking, poor nutrition, and sedentary lifestyle.
Living a healthier lifestyle can help to prevent heart disease. This includes the following:
Eliminating all tobacco products
Sticking to a heart-healthy diet
Following an appropriate exercise program
Managing your weight
Eliminate as much stress as possible
Eliminate all tobacco products
All tobacco products are included as risk factors for chronic illness, not just cigarettes. And, although there may be medical uses from derivatives of some social drugs, such as alcohol, there is no therapeutic use for nicotine. As soon as you stop smoking, your body begins to heal itself from the devastating effects of tobacco.
Adhere to a heart-healthy diet
One aspect of managing your heart attack risk factors includes eating a heart-healthy diet, including appropriate levels of the following:
To try to eliminate any confusion, the federal government has established a food plate and food labeling laws. The food plate can help you eat a variety of foods while encouraging the right amount of calories and fat.
To find more information about the Dietary Guidelines for Americans 2010 and to determine the appropriate dietary recommendations for your age, sex, and physical activity level, visit the Online Resources page for the links to the ChooseMyPlate.gov and 2010 Dietary Guidelines sites. Please note that the My Plate plan is designed for people over the age of 2 who do not have chronic health conditions.
Maintaining a heart-healthy, balanced diet will help to:
Manage stroke and heart attack risk factors
Prevent or manage other chronic diseases
Help lose weight and boost energy
Promote overall good health
Follow an appropriate exercise program
One vital step toward reducing your chances of having a heart attack is making the time to exercise. Today, with our fast-paced society, people must schedule time to exercise. Choose an activity that you enjoy doing, then talk with your health care provider about an exercise plan that meets your individual capabilities and needs.
An exercise program will help in the management of almost all stroke and heart attack risk factors. Try to include moderate to vigorous intensity physical activity for at least 40 minutes each day for at least 3 to 4 days per week, above usual activity, at work or home. Regular physical activity will help to promote health, psychological well-being, and a healthy body weight.
Always consult your health care provider regarding your healthy diet and exercise requirements.
Manage your weight
If you are overweight or obese, your health care provider will work with you to lose weight and lower your body mass index (BMI) to a normal or near-normal level. Making diet changes and increasing physical activity can help.
Eliminate as much stress as possible
Learn stress management techniques to help you deal with stress in your home and work life.

Chargrilled Oysters
24 Oysters, Freshly Shucked (on the half shell)
1lb Salted Butter
2 bunches Green Onions, chopped fine
20 toes Fresh Garlic puree
1 tsp Crushed Red Pepper
3 tbsp Fresh Thyme, chopped fine
3 tbsp Fresh Oregano, chopped fine
2 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
1 tbsp Worcestershire Sauce
2 tbsp Creole Seasoning
2 oz White Wine
8 oz Romano Cheese, grated
1 loaf French bread
Sauce: Butter garlic sauce should be prepared just prior to grilling the oysters. In a large sautée pan, add 2 sticks of butter and place over a medium heat. Add green onions, garlic, red pepper, thyme, oregano, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce and Creole seasoning. Cook for 2 minutes and add white wine. Stir ingredients continuously and cook until green onions are soft. Remove from heat and allow to cool for 3 minutes.
In a large mixing bowl (before mixture is completely cool). Add remaining butter and sauce. Blend until butter is folded into the sauce. Final product should be creamy consistency.
Grilling Oysters: Pre-heat grill to 350°. Once at 350°, place freshly shucked oyster on the half shell on the center of the grill. Once the water around the oyster begins to bubble and the oyster begins to rise. Ladle ½ an ounce of the butter garlic sauce on top of each oyster.
Note: Make sure that the sauce is well blended. This insures the proper blend of butter and seasoning. Top with a ¼ ounce of grated Romano cheese. Allow cheese to melt.
Oysters should brown slightly around the edges. Remove oysters and place on a heat-resistant plate or platter. White still hot, add ½ ounce of butter sauce to the top of each oyster. Serve immediately with warm French bread for dipping.

MAKHACHKALA, Russia - - The father of the two Boston bombing suspects says he will travel from Russia to the United States this week to seek "justice and the truth."
Anzor Tsarnaev told The Associated Press that he has "lots of questions for the police" and he wants "to clear up many things."
In the interview on Sunday he said only that he planned to go in several days, but the suspects' mother, Zubeidat Tsarnaeva, told journalists on Monday that the father plans to fly to the U.S. on Wednesday.
She said the family would try to bring the body of their elder son back to Russia.
Tamerlan Tsarnaev was killed in a gun battle with police. His 19-year-old brother Dzhokhar was later captured alive but badly wounded.

Hi all - I'm looking for some advice about moving my son's bed and (possibly) limiting nursing, but I'm very uncertain about it. I originally posted in the toddler forum but then realized this was probably more on topic here. This is the story:
After three years of (mostly) happy co-sleeping, we've decided to move our DS's bed into his own room. He turned 3 last week, and we feel like he is ready (and we are ready too). He's been on his own bed in our room for the past 6 months or so (a transition he enjoyed), and I generally hop between our bed and his bed during the night, since he is still nursing and not sleeping through the night. I'll be honest, I'm getting a little tired of the nursing and the night waking, but not to the point where I would be willing to traumatize my son to end it. At bottom, I am still hoping for a natural, peaceful, loving and mutual end to this beautiful part of our relationship, as opposed to something unilateral by me and crushing to him. While I am willing to wait a little longer to try to get there, I am generally hoping it will happen sooner rather than later.
So my question is this..... Should I move the bed, but otherwise keep our entire routine the same, including nursing to sleep and joining him in his bed when he wakes in the night, so as to make the transition to his new bedroom as pallatable to him as possible? Or .... drumroll.... should I try to combine the move to the new bedroom with a policy of no nursing in the new bedroom (but allow nursing elsewhere)? I envision a situation where I nurse him on the couch in the living room outside his room before bed and when he wakes up in the night, and then go into his bed for sleeping. This is one of the Pantley toddler suggestions....she suggests that they are so tired that they actually won't want to get out of bed to nurse after a while. I have a dedicated little nurser, so I am skeptical, but thought it might be worth a try.
I guess my concern is that if I nurse him in the new room, as convenient as that may be, it will be harder down the road for him to give up his beloved boo boo, since he will have lots of associations with it in his bedroom. But I am also concerned with putting arbitrary and unilateral limitations on our nursing relationship. That's not how I envisioned this unfolding....
My personal opinion would be to combat one at a time either night-wean him first or get him into his own bed at night first before you do the other. Its much gentler for them.

Getting Used to Things
Michael O. Garvey December 10, 2013 - 10:23am
The things we grow used to. This piece in the New York Times this morning, on the difficulty of agreeing about how to remember the days when Montgomery, Alabama, was a center of the slave trade illustrates how "Southern history is a custody battle still in litigation," and it reminded me of an interview with Shelby Foote, which I bumped into a few days ago while looking for something else.
Foote, a native of the Mississippi Delta, spoke mostly of William Faulkner (to whom, as a young man, he had boldly introduced himself while his best friend, Walker Percy, shyly cowered in a car parked in Faulkner's driveway) but he included some searing, honest and fascinating comments about racism and the culture in which he grew up. Acknowledging the evil of it, he nevertheless remembers how that culture could regard a black person (though he doesn't use that term) as "somewhere between an animal and a human being," and admits that "I lived in a society that was filled with horrors…they were not horrors at the time."
I can't help but wonder if there will come a time when many of us will be speaking of the commonplace, unremarkable horrors of our own time and country, among them, the aborting of nearly a million unborn children annually and our evident nonchalance about it.
We can get used to anything, it seems.
Commenting Guidelines
Crystal, I have farming relatives with small old fashioned farms, and my model for farming involves a harmonious cycle of raising, taking care of, feeding, killing, and eating animals. I am repulsed by the living conditions of animals in modern farm factories, and am all in favor of making meat more expensive even if it means eating less of it, but I think it's a big leap to go from there to becoming a vegetarian.
But in spite of our problems in our relationship to animals, humans come first. When I see that more people give money to a beggar when he holds animals on his lap, that they are more sensitive to the plight of animals than of people, it seems to me that such compassion is misplaced. That is where I part ways with the many vegetarians who want equal rights for people and for animals. Humans have priority.
As to the vegetarians who exclaim "That's horrible!" when I squish a fruit fly, I find it hard to not make fun of them. My compassion does not extend to fruit flies. I may have some grudging respect for those for whom fly compassion is an extension of their love of all creation, but I disagree strongly with those who turn to animals because they don't like people.
But that is not related to the topic of this post. A microscopic bean-like embryo, even though it does not arouse compassion (except by fantasizing about some pretty baby that it represents in some imaginative people's minds), is still the start of what will become a human person, and I think that makes it more important than even the cutest kitten.
Thanks for explaining how you feel. I've spent my life with pets and have loved them. I don't see any compelling reasons to priviledge people over other animals as far as kindness goes, since studies seem to increasingly show that people and animals are much the same in a number of ways. Since animals do think and feel, fear and suffer, I empathize with them and I'm not comfortable killing them for food or just because I can. And since they are so outmatched by us in power, I feel obliged to help them if I can.
Crystal - I admit I've made lots of fun of vegetarians in the past. I've grown to respect the choice to be vegetarian. I don't think I could do it myself, but the moral issues make me uncomfortable. So maybe that's progress. People who are sanctimonious about being vegetarian rub me the wrong way, but that's a function of sanctimony, not vegetarianism. I strongly oppose smoking, too, and have lost family members to lung cancer because of smoking, but people who are sanctimonious about not smoking rile me, too (the non-smoking sanctimonious ass perhaps was more common 20 or 30 years ago than now). If I come across as a sanctimonious anti-abortion ass, I really do apologize to one and all, and would welcome any suggestions, short of compromising the underlying principle, that would fix it.
Gerelyn - I like both Merlot and Pinot Noir, but I have an insensitive palate, and wine snobs rank second only to Mac snobs on my list of Bores To Ignore At Any Party Or Gathering.
While I don't discuss abortion with Catholics, I always learn something from these discussions and appreciate the comments here.
Couple of tangential points:
I think Jim Pauwels is a right-winger, but does that in any way preclude him from being a friend to all here and a person of sense?
Temple Grandin has tried to make the meat industry more humane. I don't think you have to be a vegetarian to support better treatment for livestock. Turns out that animals that are raised and slaughtered more humanely tend to be better for you. This is a very complicated issue with a lot of facets, but I was happy to hear about new FDA regulation of antibiotics. Anyone who wants to take a small step personally could refrain from eating turkeys, most of which are now bred to have so much breast meat that they cannot walk and are usually bred in intensive livestock operations. Send a letter to meat companies at Thanksgiving telling them you've changed your menu and why. They might eventually get the message. Veal is also often raised in pretty terrible conditions, and a good one to avoid.
Jim, my mother died of lung cancer and I know I can be sanctimonious about smoking. It's hard sometimes to share insights or beliefs without going there, I guess.
Crystal - FWIW, you never come across to me as sanctimonious about anything.
you never come across to me as sanctimonious about anything
I second that.
Thanks, you guys :)
Ann, I have vegetarian tendencies myself and probably would be at least 90% vegetarian if I weren't married to someone for whom a meal without meat isn't a meal. I like the food, and I very much dislike the inhumane farming practices of agribusiness. I think the PETA people are extremists though and don't wish to support them.
On a practical level, I simply try to buy from humane sources. I try to buy Fair Trade items, especially coffee and chocolate when I can. I buy as much organic as I can afford - not only to reduce the pesticide load on my family but also because farmworkers face these pesticides in huge amounts every day, and these poisons also make their way into the water table. I am not 100% organic, but I do what I can. I am more adamant about buying free range chicken, eggs and meat - free range, and without antiobiotics or hormones. I also buy milk and other dairy items that are free of the rBST hormones given to so much of the dairy herd. My friends and family think I'm nuts because I do pay a lot more for food than they do. Our food is very cheap in this country - but others pay the price, including animals.
Anne C --
ISTM that it's utterly inconsistent to call someone who tortures a dog or a cat depraved yet at the same time to let the cruelly indifferent growers of cattle go unregulated. And it's even worse, of course, to refuse to think of what abortion is in its terrible particularity (see Dr. Gosmell!). I'm hoping that eventually Pop Francis will speak out about tthis. A consistent ethic of life must extend to *all* animals.
I don't usually take the trouble to shop at Whole Foods, but you're right -- I should try to get there even if it costs more, or at least be on the look outfor fairly grown food. And, yes, we need to think of those who farm the farms which are marinated in pesticides, and also us who eat such foods.
I read a heart-rending story once by a journalist who was doing a story on the chocolate farms of Africa. He spoke with a woman who for years had worked harvesting the chocolate. Her wages were so low that she had never been able to buy a piece of chocolate -- she had no idea of what it tasted like! Enjoy your Christmas bon-bons, folks. (At least don't domplain at the price of chocolate these days!)
It also seems to me that our indifference to the farm animals and sometimes to those who work the farms is part of our ethic of indifference-to-life. (By the way, there was another school shooting today in Colorado.) American tolerance of violence is the result of such indifference. And since we tolerate the violence, we must also suffer it or the threat of it.
Ann, I find that the issue of how we raise our food and the impact on farm workers, the environment, and on the animals is simply not on most people's radar. We buy everything very sanitarily, all cleaned and neatly packaged. We don't see the growing conditions. We don't see slaughterhouses, or chicken coops where the chickens are so close together they can't spread their wings.
I now live on the east coast, but grew up in California, and I visit there frequently. One of my children lives in southern California and two near San Francisco (all three grew up in the east, went to college in California and decided to stay there), so I frequently drive through the heart of California's main agricultural valleys on my visits. About 1/3 of produce in California is now grown using organic farming methods, and since California is the largest supplier of produce in the US, that is very good. The farmworkers still work under backbreaking (literally) conditions. I see them stooped over the fields, picking strawberries and vegetables and other produce, in the hot sun, for many hours at a time. But at least those who work on organic farms aren't taking in huge amounts of pesticides and other chemicals. As the market for organic has grown, the costs have also gone down, at least some. And as more farmers adopt organic growing methods, less damage is done to the farm workers and the environment.
I am lucky enough to live in an area where it is possible to find organic and humanely raised animal products in places other than (the expensive) Whole Foods market, although I love just to wander around that store!. We have a couple of small organic markets, but I often shop at Trader Joe's. Their selection is limited, but their organic fresh, canned (diced tomatoes, for example), and frozen produce are very affordable - less for organic produce in all three of those forms there than I do at the mainstream grocery stores for non-organic. Catholic Relief Services has links to Fair Trade sources where people can buy coffee and chocolate if there are no Fair Trade products in their normal grocery stores. Most of the stores in my city now carry at least one brand of Fair Trade coffee and chocolate and Starbucks also has some Fair Trade coffee. Another source for Fair Trade chocolate and coffee but also for a wide selection of gift type items is Ten Thousand Villages. They have a lovely shop near my home, but also sell mail order. The prices are very reasonable. http://www.tenthousandvillages.com/
The abortion issue is, for me, a very difficult issue. I am "pro-life", but I also understand why many don't agree that a single-celled zygote is a human being, but a potential human being, nor do they think a blastocyst is a human being.. Scientists believe that somewhere between 50% and 75% of blastocysts never implant.
I think that the bishops have made it harder for convincing and reasonable discussion about abortion to take place because they conflate birth control with abortion. They are not the same thing and it makes the Catholic church sound somewhat hysterical on the issue. Of course HV itself did that within the church - it was a disastrous decision to ignore the Birth Control Commission's recommendations, because the "magisterium" lost pretty much all credibility on sexual teachings after that. The vast majority of Catholics believe that the choice of birth control method belongs rightly to the couple who can choose which method best supports the marital union and they don't believe that taking the pill or using an IUD aborts "human beings".
We know that both Aquinas and Augustine believed that abortion was not a "mortal" sin until after a certain stage of development - I believe it was 40 days for male fetuses and 50 for female (there they go again with their misogny showing). That pretty much conforms to the stage of fetal development when all fundamental systems are in place, including the heart, brain and nervous system.
The question about when a true human being exists will probably never be answered. What IS a human being? What makes us human besides a particular arrangement of cells? Aquinas looked to "ensoulment" as the answer - but nobody really knows. When does the soul enter the body? When in our development are we "human beings" instead of a collection of cells invisibe to the eye? The Church has changed its mind on this more than once. Perhaps it will again someday.
Most Americans support abortion rights, but polls show increasing support for limiting it to the first trimester except under exceptional circumstances (saving the life of the mother, for example). Insisting that contraception and abortion are equivalent leads most people to simply ignore the arguments against abortion. Insisting that a zygote or blastocyst is a "human being" with equivalent rights to "born" human beings turns people off from listening at all. Most people are at least somewhat uncomfortable with abortion on demand, but the bishops and extremists within the pro-life movement make most people simply turn away from deeply examining the whole issue. I do not believe that any one religion has the "right" to impose its beliefs on all. So, as far as abortion goes, the bishops and pro-life movement should reconsider how they are fighting this issue. Education on the stages of embryonic and fetal development goes a lot farther to convince people of the immorality of abortion (at least after a certain stage of development) than does the hysterical approach they take now that equates birth control and abortion as being equivalent.
Anne, the abortion issue is also difficult for me. I am "pro-choice", but with many misgivings and reservations. Actually, the discussion on that seems to have moved to https://www.commonwealmagazine.org/blog/peter-steinfels-responds-george-mckenna

Message from the POA President:
It has been an honor to hold the position of President for the PMR POA. I must say I consider the title to be glorified, but humbly accepted the position when I was nominated. I have met many new people and have learned much of the diverse cultures in the area. However, February 15, 2015 will be the official day I step down. I can no longer hold the position due multiple personal reasons. I want to close by thanking all the board members for all the hard work they put into keeping PMR maintained.
I look forward to seeing everyone when I make it to the Mountains,

Units 3 & 4 of Pine Meadow Ranches were set up about 35 years ago as a place for people to go camping. Some of the land is at 7,500 feet in altitude with some higher and some lower. There are over 1,100 lots in all four units of Pine Meadow Ranches. Some of the lots have grassland, while others have Pinon Pine, Cedar & Ponderosa Pine growing.
Some property owners have built houses and live on their land full time. Property owners must be aware that the one lane dirt or rock roads may be impassable when the heavy rains or snow come. At this time there are approximately 30 families living here full time.
Some owners have drilled private water wells that went 200 feet deep while some went over 800 feet. There also is a community well that property owners can use to haul water for their own use.
Property owners pay assessments each year to help maintain the roads as they are private roads and there is no help from the state or county. When people buy property in Units 3 or 4, they become members of the Pine Meadow Ranches Property Owners Association. The yearly assessments are based on the amount of property they own, and this money is used for road maintenance in Units 3 & 4.
The POA Board can be reached by e-mail at email@example.com .

Matilda: Queen of the Conqueror
By Tracy Borman (Jonathan Cape 297pp £20)
Behind every great man, so the saying goes, is a great woman - or, in the case of the man known to posterity as William the Conqueror, a diminutive one. William's wife Matilda of Flanders stood little more than four feet tall, but she loomed large, all the same, in the creation of his newly royal dynasty.
The first of her attributes that appealed to the young William, duke of Normandy, was her impeccably blue blood. Matilda's father, Baldwin, was count of the wealthy and strategically significant territories of Flanders, and a descendant of the great Charlemagne, while her mother, Adela, was a daughter of the king of France. Her lineage promised to bestow both lustre and legitimacy on the bastard-born Norman duke, whose power, amid the brutal unpredictability of eleventh-century politics, had always depended principally on the strength of his sword-arm.
When they married, probably in 1050, William discovered that he liked more about his well-connected wife than simply her pedigree. Strikingly, and very unusually for a medieval ruler, he seems to have taken no mistresses and fathered no illegitimate children once he became a married man. During the next two decades, this happy union produced four or five daughters and four sons, who would provoke the only significant tension between husband and wife: Matilda favoured their first-born, Robert - disparagingly dubbed Curthose, 'short-boot', because of the low stature he had inherited from his mother - while William preferred their third son, his namesake, known as Rufus for his red hair or ruddy complexion.
But Matilda was much more than an aristocratic brood mare. Dutiful and pious, she was also well educated, independent-minded and fiercely ambitious. When her husband mustered his forces for his assault on England, the kingdom he claimed after the death of its childless king Edward the Confessor, it was Matilda who commissioned the most spectacular ship that sailed with his invasion fleet: the Mora, a formidable longship, its figurehead said to have been a golden boy blowing an ivory horn. And when William set his course across the Channel, it was Matilda he left as regent to safeguard his Norman duchy in his stead.
Tracy Borman tells this story with a steady eye and a steady hand, tracing what can be known of Matilda's part in the events that were to change the course of English history. Her difficulty, though, is that biography is a challenging form for an eleventh-century subject, and especially for an eleventh-century woman, even one as eminent as England's first Norman queen. 'From the very beginning,' she says, 'Matilda's life was shrouded in mystery.' But it wasn't, of course, to those who were there. Only in retrospect does it become mysterious, when even dates of birth and death, let alone nuances of temperament and motivation, can be difficult to sift with any certainty from the surviving sources.
Borman is undoubtedly right that, at a distance of almost a millennium, the records we have - from the charters that bear the stamp of Matilda's political influence, to the great chronicles of the Anglo-Norman monastic historians Orderic Vitalis and William of Malmesbury - are both extraordinary and intriguing. It's more of a stretch to claim that, from them, Matilda's 'character emerges in all its brilliantly contrasting facets'. Borman's attempt to craft a portrait of her heroine is both thorough and thoughtful; but, while the broadest brushstrokes are confidently drawn, the details - inevitably but frustratingly - are a lattice-work of 'would have', 'could have', 'might have' and 'must have'.
In the end, colour and drama are brought to the story more often by what Matilda didn't do than by what she did. Despite the fact that the Bayeux Tapestry is still known in France as 'La Tapisserie de la Reine Mathilde', she neither commissioned nor stitched it herself, as longstanding tradition would have it. Nor did she choose to marry William only after he had viciously beaten her for her temerity in refusing his suit at the first time of asking - just one of a handful of lurid stories of sadistic violence supposedly enacted by William upon his wife that found their way into the chronicles of later centuries. In another, he drags Matilda behind a horse by her hair and parades her naked through the streets of Caen because of rumours of her infidelity while he was occupied with the conquest of England.
There is no contemporary evidence at all to support these tales - and weaving them into the unfolding story of Matilda's life, along with romantic nineteenth-century evocations of her imagined beauty, risks muddying the historical waters. But perhaps the violence of these legends can be read as a lasting echo not only of the forcefulness of Matilda's daunting husband, but also of the implicit challenge embodied by a woman who was his consort in political as well as personal terms. And, on one notable occasion, Matilda did dare to defy her husband and king. When their eldest son Robert's resentment at his exclusion from the corridors of power boiled over into rebellion in 1078, Matilda sent not only secret messages but quantities of silver and gold to her favourite child.
It's here - in Matilda's political agency in an overwhelmingly masculine world - that the fascination of her story lies. The fact that all subsequent sovereigns of England are her direct descendants seems more a question of genealogical happenstance than the 'extraordinary feat' that Tracy Borman suggests; much more extraordinary, as she shows, was the political stature that far outstripped the tiny frame of the Conqueror's queen.

|In this prescient lecture, Halbertal examines the moral limitations and challenges inherent in fighting a war on terror within, on and beyond one's own borders. What is the approach adopted by the Israeli Defense Forces [IDF] in attempting to distinguish between combatants and civilians? What are the lessons, particularly for the United States, that can be drawn from the Israeli approach? He brings to this a unique perspective having been a consultant to the IDF on the development of ethical codes of conduct.

Secretary Vilsack Announces Cattlemens Beef Board Appointments
AMS No. 276-11
Sam Jones-Ellard (202) 617-7212
WASHINGTON, Dec. 28, 2011 - Agriculture Secretary Thomas J. Vilsack today announced 29 appointments to the Cattlemens Beef Promotion and Research Board. All appointees will serve 3-year terms.
These appointees represent a cross section of the beef industry and I am confident that beef producers and importers of cattle, beef and beef products will be well served by them," said Vilsack.
Newly appointed members representing cattle producers are: Leo C. Sutterfield, Jr., Ark.; Phyllis K. Snyder, Colo.; Sarah K. Childs, Fla.; Kimberly Brackett, Idaho; Stacy M. McClintock and Perry L. Owens, Kan.; Daniel C. Smith, Ky.; Leon Kreisler, Mo.; Lyle V. Peterson and Linda M. Nielsen, Mont.; Douglas A. Temme and Sherry A. Vinton, Neb.; Wesley L. Grau, N.M.; Patrick L. Becker, N.D.; Terry L. Wyatt and Barbara A. Jacques, Okla.; Joyce A. Bupp, Pa.; Gerald R. Sharp, S.D.; Ted A. Greidanus, Southwest Unit; Richard A. Winter, Paul H. Looney, Jr., G. Hughes Abell, Lavina G. Sartwell, and Thomas R. Alger, Texas; and Frank H. Maxey, Jr., Va.
Newly appointed members representing importers are: Andrew N. Burtt, Va.; Stephen K. Edwards, Va.; Cristobal J. Hutton, Ill.; and Joakim A. Holzner, Colo.
The board oversees the collection of $1-per-head on all cattle sold in the United States, and $1-per-head equivalent on imported cattle, beef and beef products. In addition, the board contracts with established national, non-profit, industry-governed organizations to implement programs of promotion, research, consumer information, industry information, foreign marketing and producer communications.
The 103-member board is authorized by the Beef Promotion and Research Act of 1985. The Secretary selects the appointees nominated by beef, veal, dairy and importers certified organizations.

Jack O'Neill began surfing in 1952, before functional surf apparel was invented. While working for the Army Air Corps, O'Neill discovered neoprene foam in a DC-3 airplane. He then combined the neoprene carpeting with duct tape to create the first neoprene wetsuit.
Demand for O'Neill's neoprene wetsuits grew rapidly and he began a business selling the O'Neill wetsuits out of his garage. By 1980, he was a leader in the beach apparel industry with a thriving business. Since then, O'Neill™ has become a widely recognized and respected brand in the surf industry, continually creating new and innovative products. In addition to O'Neill wetsuits, they carry O'Neill boardshorts, O'Neill dresses, O'Neill hats, O'Neill rash guards, O'Neill swimsuits, O'Neill water shoes, O'Neill sandals, O'Neill life jackets and O'Neill t-shirts.
In addition to his business success, O'Neill also created a non-profit foundation for kids. O'Neill developed the O'Neill Sea Odyssey Program: a free, educational cruise that introduces kids to the microbiology of the Monterey Bay Marine Sanctuary, beginning at Jack O'Neill's doorstep.

Size isn't always everything... an ex's current boyfriend is bigger than me but hasn't made her cum in the year they've been together, and I know a few cases with female friends where this is the case. They don't care about the size unless it's depressingly small or overly large. Large may look better, but in action it fails a lot of times. It stems from the time we didn't give a **** if women were enjoying themselves or not but only cared which is the bigger man in at least one sense of the word.
