Stereotactic radiosurgery is delivered with the use of gamma knife or linac based photon beams. Both of these modalities can provide an acceptable dose distribution. However, they are time consuming. The development of micro-multileaf collimators (mMLC) and intensity modulation has allowed a potential for static intensity-modulated (IM) linac delivered radiotherapy.
Three seperate targets were compared and contrasted for treatment optimization. Five arc linac based, seven conformal based, and seven IM treatment fields were studied. All plans were optimized to the 18 Gy prescription dose and dose volume histograms of the target and normal tissues were analyzed.

That was so mich fun! I made a pink glitter platform heel with cream double straps and a cream bow!ReplyDelete
I follow you on bloglovinReplyDelete
Oh wow! My dream shoes are pointed court shoes with a 3 inch heel, made of lime leather, with a nude patent ankle strap, toe cap and bow at the back.ReplyDelete
I went to the webpage but loved the blue ones that are already set up as you showed above.. with the green bow behind! love them!ReplyDelete

I made up Red Suede platforms with double straps!
Amazing giveaway!ReplyDelete
Mine would be a flat brogue with zebra and fuscia colours!
I wish I had the money to buy it..
This is such a great idea! I played with it for a while and created some fun high heels as well as ballet flats (black with red edges and zebra bow on the top or red glitter with black edges and a bow) but the ones I would love to win would be flats in black leather with beige lining and a a Lisa bow on the top. It's a very simple (maybe boring)design but I've had troubles finding good quality basic black flats so I would totally love to win those :)ReplyDelete

I went pointed court with a cap toe. I kept it simple. It didn't ask for a color, but I feel like I'd go for a black or red shoe with a beige leather sole and lining. Such a cool idea.ReplyDelete

(NEWS CENTER) -- With less than two weeks to go until election day, there are lot of wheels turning in Maine as various campaigns fight for advantage.
Mitt Romney's campaign is doing something interesting; it's spending huge amounts of money on political advertising in the second congressional district in the hopes that he can pick up at least one electoral college vote out of Maine's two.
Will he be able to do it?... We pose that question to NEWS CENTER political analysts Phil Harriman and Ethan Strimling.

I'm not a mandrake expert, but I'd suspect that the best way to do this would be to boot the drive as is, without the upgrade, in single user mode.
I'd then edit the /etc/fstab file and comment out references to the 3 old drives.
Then I'd do the upgrade. The installation process is probably checking fstab to get the old drive information.
I hope that the missing drives only have data and no operating system directories like /var or /usr. It could be tricky if they do, because the upgrade could fail if key directories cannot be found.

After avoiding arbitration with Jason Hammel and Jim Johnson earlier this evening, the Orioles may be on the verge of taking care of their lone remaining case. The O's are close to a two-year deal with Darren O'Day that would include an option for a third year, according to Roch Kubatko of MASNsports.com (on Twitter).
The two-year deal will cover O'Day's remaining years of arbitration, putting him in line to test free agency after the 2014 season. Johnson, who had previously earned Super Two status, filed for $3.2MM this winter while the O's offered $1.8MM.

Holy crap, thats alot of money
Microsoft boss is the biggest donor in history
TODAY?S donation pushes Bill Gates into an even more exalted position as the world?s biggest philanthropist.
The Gates foundation, which is worth $30 billion, (?17billion), is now the largest charity to have been created by a single benefactor or private company by a factor of three, following a previous $3 billion gift from its founder last July. Mr Gates has stated that he intends to give away 90 per cent of his fortune, which is currently valued at about $50 billion.
The causes to which he has channelled his wealth ? global health inequalities, education programmes, public libraries and projects around his home town of Seattle ? have changed dramatically because of his contributions.
To date, the Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunisation has been the largest recipient of his charity. His pledge today follows an initial $750 million grant in 1999, which was used to help to set up the organisation to support research and improve access to vaccines.
As well as saving an estimated 670,000 lives through vaccines, it has also helped to facilitate major breakthroughs on vaccines for diseases such as malaria, rotavirus and meningitis.
Other grants given by the foundation, which hands out $1.1 billion of funding a year, include $1 billion in 1999 to the United Negro College Fund to pay for scholarships.
Mr Gates?s donations, which far surpass even the philanthropy of Andrew Carnegie and John D. Rockefeller, dwarf the next largest such charitable foundations.
The Lilly Endowment, created by the drugs giant Eli Lilly and Company in 1937 to support religious, educational and community development, is currently valued at $10 billion. The Ford Foundation, created with gifts by the motor magnate Henry Ford in 1936, is the third largest at $9 billion.
It will support national immunisation programmes in 72 of the world?s poorest countries
Strengthen immunisation services needed to deliver basic vaccines
Introduce underused vaccines in areas where they are urgently needed
Accelerate the development and introduction of new vaccines
Ensure immunisation safety by widely distributing single-use syringes
Holy crap, thats alot of money
"If you enjoy what you do, you'll never work another day in your life."
My man confucius said it well :D
Why is my signature text blue I did not make it like that??
My surprise was his commitment of giving away 90% of his fortune. You need a really big heart for that.
I was absolutely shocked when I read that in the morning! That's just a LOT of money!
Self esteem is the top of the pyramid...it's the last thing people want to acheive! Bro. Bill is not an exceptional.

I have never seen a wire nut used in the UK, but they seem to be very common in the USA, why?
I have never seen a wire nut used in the UK, but they seem to be very common in the USA, why?
One possible reason provided by Ideal Industries in This article
Though it looks like Ideal is still trying to tap UK twist-on wire connector market, with the new Twister® PRO (which to me looks just like a regular wire nut, aside from it being multicolored).
Twist-on connectors
The Wikipedia article on twist-on connectors suggests they were outlawed in the UK 50 years ago. No references are given. It is suggested that 50 years ago the ("Scruit" brand) twist-on connectors were made of ceramic and were liable to crack and expose the wires.
UK Electricians are a conservative group. Vendors of novel products have to go to considerable length to persuade them that their products meet the relevant legislation.
An Ideal Industries Inc. catalogue says
However, it isn't uncommon to see strenuous efforts on the part of manufacturers to persuade UK electricians that novel products meet regulations. E.g. Wagobox and Ezybond earth fasteners Some of these novel products more or less disappear from the market within a few years, others succeed.
In the UK, electricians almost invariably use screw-terminals.
The white translucent screw-connector block in the foreground is a typical example. This one is rated for 5A. Other sizes are available for different current ratings.
An electrician left behind the other connectors in this picture. I suspect they were used for temporary connections during installation. I've not seen any in a completed installation (but I'm only a householder not an electrician, so have very limited experience)
The "Marr No.1" connectors at back right look superficially similar to US wire-nuts but are very different. The metal insert is removed and a grub nut is used to clamp the wires, then the plastic insulator is screwed over the connection.
The "Legrand 10mm2" connectors at top left may be for higher current ratings. Note that the plate that presses on the wires is arranged so as not to exert any twisting force on the conductors. Perhaps this avoids damaging stranded conductors. It certainly prevents the conductors being pressed to one side of the screw and therefore not being securely clamped in place.
An obvious advantage of these connectors is that the wires can be removed intact and should usually not need trimming before reconnection. I have the impression that in the US, wire-nut connections are often removed by cutting the wires, which may leave progressively less and less wire available in the junction-box or back-box for remaking connections.
When more than two wires are to be joined, a slightly different type of screw-connector is used:
Not sure about "why not" in UK (although Tester101 seems to have a good explanation [as always]), but there is a trend in US, at least in the DIY community to use the new side-by-side connectors
The overall connection is wider, but I find it easier to flex the bundle toward the back of the box, especially when there are three or four wires. Also, there is tactile feedback that the connection of each wire is solid and less chance that one of the wires has a loose connection as it might in a twisted bundle.
Finally, it generally needs less of a stripped lead, which is helpful if you need to snip the end for a new connection. Sometimes cutting the twisted lead leaves a pretty short wire to work with.
Tester101 addressed your "why not in the UK?" question. As to the "why in the USA?", I believe it's because wire nuts are easy to use, cheap, and occupy little space in the box.
Even an amateur can create a good splice with wire nuts. They don't need to learn to pretwist or anything: just line the wires up, jam 'em in, and twist like your life depends on it (hint: it might). Then hold the nut and give each wire a tug to make sure the nut grabbed it good. Got it wrong? Try again, no muss, no fuss. Really mangled things? Cut the ends off, strip a bit more, and try again. It's a lot more forgiving and reliable than any similarly cheap alternative.
Building Regulations Part P in UK does not specifically ban or recommend using screw terminals in the UK. It goes to mention, that during joing wires they should be joined in the terminal of a switch/contact or to use appropriately certified equipment that is relevant to the job!
There is also an a section for old building compliance that may be encountered during renovations and they show some bad and good ways of doing certain things but do not mention anything about joining wires.
I have never seen any regulation banning the use of those connectors- But in my own experience I ALWAYS questioned how long will that wire actually last screwed in freely like that? And i preffered to use block connectors for piece of mind!
If you interested in more building regulations please click here (UK)
They are also common in Belgium, if that adds anything. I found the old ceramic ones in my house and have used the modern quality ones for wiring lighting circuits very effectively. Simple to use and the house has not burnt down yet after 5 years so appear to be safe.
240 Volts everywhere has something to do with it - not a good idea to have wires twisted together. Can't have receptacles or wall switches in bathrooms either.
The reason we don't use wire nuts is because they damage the cable when you undo them. I lived & worked in the uk as an electrician for nearly 14 years.
Most electricians that are considered to be master electricians have at least 3-4 years of college education. On top of that, we do regular courses to upgrade our knowledge when the electrical regulations get revised. eg 16th edition, 17th edition etc.
On top of this, you need to do a testing & inspection course.
This is essential as anytime, a house, flat/apartment or dwelling of any kind is sold or rented/leased, the electrics have to be tested.
We do not use wire nuts as twisted copper wires weaken ever time you untwist & re twist back together again. A terminal block is considered safer & better as you loosen the screw, pull out the wires, test, reinsert & wire up again.
Rental properties which change tenants would have to be tested regularly. Wire nuts would become a hinderance. Secondly like many countries using 220-250 volts, only qualified electricians can test & certify the condition of the electrical systems.
Most electricians that I have meet in california have a very limited knowledge of testing & fault finding. They normally want to rewire the house or upgrade the fuseboard/panel rather than locate & rectify the fault.
You will not find the answer in the electrical regulation book as they are more of a guide to good electrical practice than a how to guide. The regs book gave you the european guidelines but does not tell you how to execute the work.

POTSDAM It has been nearly a year since a sudden windstorm ripped the roof from Sergis Italian Restaurant, 10 Market St. Now, after months of repairs, the downtown mainstay has returned home.
While the banquet hall next door still needs a few more weeks of repairs, the restaurant reopened Wednesday. State Sen. Joseph A. Griffo, R-Rome, came to Potsdam to mark the occasion as the first pizzas started baking at the original location.
Its super. Its great to come home, said Sergis owner Saverio Sam Spagnolo.
Since the windstorm last July 19, Sergis had operated out of a temporary location at 38 Market St. The smaller kitchen led to a more limited menu, and Mr. Spagnolo said he is looking forward to bringing back the full Sergis experience.
The roof at 10 Market St. was replaced, and the interior of the building was gutted and rebuilt during renovations. Regardless of the upgrades, longtime patrons should expect few changes in the menu or decor.
All the customers, everybodys always asking me, When will you come back? Mr. Spagnolo said. The estimated reopening was delayed several times as the lengthy repairs continued.
The Spagnolo family owns the 38 Market St. location they occupied for the last year. Mr. Spagnolo said there are no new tenants for that building lined up, as he has been focusing on the restaurant repairs.

Puck Daddy's proud American editorial staff unearthed this telling story about American hockey dominance:
Such was the scene at Dek Star last weekend, as [Sidney Crosby] strapped on the goalie gear and played for a ball hockey team in a 26-and-over league — unannounced and completely anonymous to his foes until his identity was revealed later in the game.
Save your fork, there's pie:
"He did play the ball a lot behind the net and stuff like that. I think that's because he was bored because his team was dominating, ha ha. Legitimately, we may have had 1 or 2 shots.
That's right: a sleepy team of Western PA dek hockey players took one look at Canada's best hockey player and agreed immediately – he'd have to play goalie so they could shelter him.
We here at the Sleeping Giant are disappointed that these so called Americans chose to share their game with a Canadian, but at least it was only dek hockey. It would have been an awkward conversation if someone had to explain to Mr. Crosby that he'd mess up the chemistry on the bench or ruin everyone's good mojo if he were allowed to play on the ice.

By RICHARD SHAWSun Advocate publisher
Putting together the opinion page each week is a new adventure every time I do it.
It's truly amazing what a wonderful country we have; each person can have an opinion about any subject and they can have that opinion without worry that the government will come and get them for it.
However, it seems, there are a lot of people out there that would like to see that changed. They are of the opinion, that on certain things, no one should be heard, unless it is from their point of view.
Take the Shades of Gray column we ran earlier this month, written by Terry Willis and Tom McCourt for instance.
Each month they write this column and they trade off responding to each other on some controversial subject. Last time it was Terry's turn to start the whole thing and Tom's responsibility to write an opinion that challenged hers. As the three of us talked together about what they would write about, the subject, an old one in Utah, came up. That of polygamy.
With the news of Warren Jeffs being put on the FBI's 10 most wanted list it seemed an appropriate time to address at least some of the issues swirling around this controversial practice.
After that column appeared we got a lot of email about the subject; that was good, because I like to hear from people about their opinions and often it will spawn other editorials and letters to the editor.
The exception to that this time however, is that about half the email asked why we would print such a thing. Some questioned the integrity of the paper for doing so, some attacked Tom personally for taking the view he did in his part of the column.
I'm not sure what people are thinking when they attack the paper for printing an opinion they don't like. An opinion page is for many varied opinions, some conservative, some liberal, some moderate and some way out there on both ends of the spectrum (depending on each individuals idea of what that is of course).
That is the purpose of the opinion page.
As for personally attacking the writer of a piece, I find it interesting that often when someone sends me an email doing this or calls me up about such a column, they often don't want to write any kind of rebuttal to the piece they are objecting too. They want to personalize the issue, not deal with it. They want to attack the person, not the subject the writer ruminated about.
I have also often received second and third calls from the same person concerning a column or editorial where they are insisting that we should do something about the person who wrote the piece. I do, do something. I gladly pay them and then ask them to do some more.
The point is that the opinion page should stir controversy; it is there to make people think about things in a different way and to look at things from a varied point of view. Attacking people who write such columns, rather than the issue itself, shows a lack of understanding about what an opinion page is about. And I will never allow people to attack another personally in our pages. They may take issue with someone, say they are wrong or misinformed, but personal attacks have no place in an opinion page.
That also goes for political figures as well, although they are more open game than private persons who write letters or editorials. For instance we may run an editorial that claims President Bush lied about some things to further the war in Iraq, but we will also run letters and editorials that support his decisions as well. Taking issue with a public figure over something he or she has done as a part of public policy is a different thing from attacking someone personally for having an opinion and expressing it in our pages.
There is also one other thing that I think it is important for readers to know. Often editorial writers are assigned subjects on which they either have no opinion or must take an opposite opinion from what they truly believe. Writing an editorial about a problem or situation on which you have an opposite opinion is truly an exercise in critical thinking.
In Tom's case he had to take issue with what Terry wrote, in some way or form. He chose to talk about the fact that some do not believe Jeff's name should be on the 10 most wanted list. Others, obviously see Jeff's as belonging there in the worst way.
That controversy just fits in well with the volatile issue of polygamy. And debating it in open conversation demonstrates why this is the best and freest country in the world.

Six school districts in Jefferson and Lewis counties received a federal grant to help students get ahead in science, technology, engineering and math.
Grant leader Lyme Central School, Chaumont, was awarded $2.9 million to pool with five other districts to develop STEM-centered courses with the Jefferson-Lewis Board of Cooperative Educational Services, Syracuse University and Clarkson University, Potsdam.
One of the reasons we applied for the grant is because we know our kids are missing out, said Lyme Superintendent Karen M. Donahue. Well offer resources weve never been able to offer before, such as Advanced Placement courses and technology sharing.
Sackets Harbor, Alexandria, Belleville Henderson, Copenhagen and LaFargeville central school districts will be sharing the grant with Lyme.
According to a news release, the five-year grant is a part of the Department of Defense Education Activitys Fort Drum Rural Initiative for STEM Excellence.
Syracuse Universitys Office of Professional Development will provide evaluation supports and technical assistance to Fort Drum RISE, while Clarkson Universitys Office of Educational Partnerships will be tapped for professional development and expertise related to science, mathematics and engineering curriculum, the release says.
Mrs. Donahue said she hopes eventually to include Jefferson Community College in the partnership.
The grant will fund science and math enrichment programs, including hiring more teachers in those subjects. The release also says STEM enrichment primarily will be for high schoolers. However, those in seventh and eighth grade who demonstrate interest also will receive those resources.
Mrs. Donahue said the superintendents will meet soon to determine how the money will be split and what services could be shared, including online classes. The programs will start next school year, and there may be a kickoff summer program.
Were fortunate and very grateful, Mrs. Donahue said. The state budgets have killed us. ZIP codes should not determine the quality of our education.

Weather-related declines in
Upper Bay overshadow Mid-Bay bay grass increases
April, 2012 - Marylandĺs bay grasses declined for the
second year in a row, a result of extreme weather conditions in both 2010 and
2011. Bay grass coverage fell 14% from 40,053 acres in 2010 to approximately
34,461 acres in 2011. However, muddy waters from Hurricane Irene and Tropical
Storm Lee delayed, and in some cases prevented, complete mapping in several
sections of the Bay.
After several years of increase, bay grasses in the upper Bay (above Chesapeake
Bay bridge) dropped by 34% in 2011. About 13,287 acres were mapped in Marylandĺs
portion of the upper Bay compared to the 21,353 acres in 2010. Most of the
losses occurred on the Susquehanna Flats and the Elk and Sassafras Rivers on the
Eastern Shore. Bay grasses in this area were affected by heavy early spring
rains which created poor early season growing conditions. In late summer, both
Hurricane Irene and Tropical Storm Lee again muddied the water again for over
two months. While total acreage was lower in 2011 than 2010, the mapping in that
portion of the Bay was conducted later in the season than usual (early November)
when the plants naturally die-back. Some of the bay grass declines may have
resulted from poor growing conditions resulting from very muddy water, but later
than usual mapping also played a major factor.
Bay grasses in Maryland portion of the Middle Bay Zone, from the Chesapeake Bay
Bridge south to the state line, increased by about 12%, from 18,700 to 21,174
acres offsetting the declines in the upper Bay. These numbers are estimates,
however. Due to extremely poor water clarity in 2011, portions of the Patuxent
and Potomac Rivers, were either not mapped during the aerial survey, or only
partially mapped. In such cases, 2010 acreage values were used to estimate total
bay grass acreages for the mid Bay.
Grass beds in Eastern Bay, Choptank, Little Choptank and Honga Rivers, increased
by over 4,400 acres (139 %) in 2011. These areas are home to widgeon grass, a
type of bay grass known for large annual fluctuations. The expansion of widgeon
grass in the mid-Bay most likely resulted from lower than normal salinities,
which allowed many more seeds to germinate, and also good mid-summer growing
conditions as confirmed by State of Maryland monitoring.
Despite the widgeon grass increases, there was some bay grass loss in the
mid-Bay (Tangier and Pocomoke Sounds and in the Manokin and Big Annemessex
Rivers). These areas are dominated by eelgrass, a type of bay grass still
recovering from a heat-related die-off in 2005. These declines resulted from
higher than normal water temperatures in summer of 2010 and 2011, along with
long-term declining water clarity.
The full impact of Hurricane Irene and Tropical Storm Lee on Marylandĺs bay
grasses will not be seen until the 2012 mapping is completed. As always,
Maryland DNR biologists will continue to monitor the health of Marylandĺs waters
and underwater grasses since they are an important habitat in the Chesapeake Bay
and provide food and shelter for many animals, including blue crabs, largemouth
bass and canvasback ducks. Healthy bay grass beds also protect shorelines from
erosion, produce oxygen and filter polluted water.
Restoring bay grasses and the Chesapeake Bay
Because bay grasses are sensitive to even small changes in water pollution, they
serve as a key indicator of Chesapeake Bay health. Polluted runoff entering the
Bay contains nutrients that can fuel algal blooms and sediments that block
sunlight needed for bay grass growth. Further reductions in the amount of
polluted runoff and sediment entering Marylandĺs waterways are necessary for
providing a clean and healthy Chesapeake Bay for all Marylanders, young and old.
Programs to plant cover crops, upgrade sewage treatment plants and septic
systems, restore natural filters, conserve high priority lands, restore habitats
and foster smarter, greener growth and living in Maryland will benefit bay
grasses and the Bayĺs other natural resources. Beneficial individual actions we
can take include maintaining your septic system, sensible lawn care and planting
trees and shrubs.

Presented by:Elaine Reed, Ph.D. Professor, Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine Director, Immunogenetics Center Member, JCCC Signal Transduction and Therapeutics Program Area
Dr. Elaine Reed's research efforts are focused on understanding the mechanism of chronic allograft rejection. She and her colleagues postulate that anti-HLA antibodies are pathogenic in chronic rejection by binding to HLA class I molecules on endothelium and smooth muscle of the allograft and transducing signals that stimulate cell proliferation. Understanding this mechanism will permit the development of new therapeutic modalities for the treatment and prevention of transplant atherosclerosis and the extension of functional life of transplanted organs.

A friendly 7-Eleven
The former Friendly's Ice Cream at the corner of Church and Warwick Avenues is being renovated into a 7-Eleven convenience store. Contrary to speculation that the building would come down and include a convenience store and gas station, the city planning department said no gas pumps are planned and the front door to the building would be relocated to where the takeout window was previously located. 7-Eleven is also looking for a curb cut to the store from Church Avenue. The plan includes landscaping and screening.

See which face cleansing towelettes wipe out the competition
Why it's great: "I am amazed at how well … it removed my makeup," raves one reviewer. "I didn't have to rub and my face looked fresh and clean afterwards." Another reviewer says she relies on these wipes to remove her heavy stage makeup after her dance performances. She calls them a "lifesaver" and applauds them for not leaving "any residue" behind.

I've been using the Ponds luminous towelettes, which are ok, but take 2 or 3 to get all the makeup off. Going to try the Olay age defy next, thanks for the list.

Not so long ago Nintendo, the renowned Japanese, gaming company set consumer markets ablaze with its Gameboy Advance and subsequent Nintendo DS and Nintendo Wii releases. Profits at that point of time for the Japanese firm had sky rocketed through the record breaking sales of their subsequent platform releases. However the most shocking reports to surface about the company was the whole plan for a proper Nintendo cellphone. The rumours that had been sparked at the time, had set gaming enthusiasts buzzing with excitement, for in all practicality it meant that an incredible gaming oriented phone was on its way. However the rumours and in effect the plans died down.
Now detailed reports are surfacing that the rumours were actually true and there had indeed been plans for a Nintendo phone which died at the Research and Development headquarters of Nintendo in Japan. The reports claim that the whole idea was started when Nokia initiated contact with Nintendo over plans for a joint effort in releasing the rumoured device. R&D apparently took serious initiative in moving forward with plans for the same. The blueprints were readied and a board approval impending further steps were about to be taken when the whole idea was rejected by the board.
Apparently Nokia's parallel failure with its gaming platform form the N-gage played a catalyzing role in the board's decision to reject the plans which had reached a sufficiently advanced stage. This is a pity because today Apple and Google with their Unlocked iPhone4 and Android respectively are laughing away to the bank with complete dominance over the mobile gaming industry. To think if Nintendo had pushed through with their plans the mobile gaming industry would have looked entirely different altogether. Imagine the sheer delight of phone and gaming enthusiasts considering the options they would have had at hand!

I read with interest the letter written by William Sharp ("Sanctity of life has been lost,"Sun Advocate, June 8).
Mr. Sharp referred to Hitler's euthanasia program of killing anyone deemed to have an incurable illness or deformities. Everyone knows that the Nazi Party envisioned a 'master race', which would include only Caucasian, 'Christian', physically sound peoples. Everyone also knows that Adolph Hitler was a psychopathic, homicidal tyrant and coward. So I was surprised to learn that according to Mr. Sharp "... Hitler's euthanasia machine was a small time operator when compared with the hundreds of institutions now killing the deformed in the U.S."
Since the beginning of recorded history men have believed that God put them in charge of everything; gave them dominion over everything; and most especially over women. So much responsibility, guys, ..however do you manage it all? Obviously being a female, I've had a problem with this attitude.
Mr. Sharp mentions the Democratic Party and Planned Parenthood as the 'evil-doers' of legalizing contraception in his letter. It will come as no large surprise that I am a member of both. I take great pride in the fact that while attending college, (during the Vietnam War); my friends and I were able to lower the voting age to eighteen, and eventually make birth control options, including abortion, legal. If your President sees fit to fight a war using your body, you should have the right to support or reject him in the voting booth. And if a young man has unprotected sex with a girl and a child is conceived, the girl should have the option to terminate the pregnancy if her young Don Juan chooses to ride off into the sunset. Until men are made to be equally responsible for any life they create, women should be allowed to make decisions concerning their bodies just as men do theirs.
We must be careful to avoid trying to limit the size of families. But always remember that having a child is a privilege, not a right! I believe in the ideal of Planned Parenthood, even though I realize it may well be impossible to achieve. If every child was planned and wanted, it would be a marvelous thing.
It is men who impregnate women, men who rape women, and in some religions it is the men who force the young girls to marry older men of their faith. Because plural marriage is illegal, it is we the taxpayer who shelter and feed these illegitimate children. It is offensive to me when these fathers have more than enough wealth to take care of them.
I found his statement that women were aborting deformed fetus's "...because continuing their lives poses some inconvenience..." both incredibly insulting and shocking. The word 'inconvenient' trivializes both the emotions and the challenges these parents are faced with. Why not organize a program where parents teach not only girls, but boys also, about the emotional maturity necessary before engaging in sex? Such a program could perhaps point out the sexually transmitted diseases that are incurable.
We live in a democracy, and the legalization of contraception has been voted on, and approved. Please remember the fact that if someone does not agree with contraception, including abortion, they simply do not have to practice it. No one, not even we 'liberalized' women would force anyone to do so. I do not presume to have the right to tell anyone which religion to follow, the number of children they should have, or that they are going to heaven or to hell; based upon their choices. I have seen countries where there is no birth control, where the population has far outstripped the countries' resources; and where hate and anger rule exclusively. The world has known many atrocities committed in the name of religion, and the horrific events of 9-11 were some of them. Moral arrogance is a dangerous path to follow.
Perhaps I might be able to be convinced to revert back to the days of one gender demanding submission from the other, as long as it is the females' turn to be in charge. Obviously, we would still bear the children, but the men would have the pleasure of raising them. If after their birth, we decided we really didn't love you guys after all, we could be the ones to choose not be involved in the child's life.
However, that's probably not a good idea. That type of power would merely reduce women to adapt the lack of morality, compassion and commitment observed by so many men today.

I connect with a Lucent 56kb modem :-/ Our monopolistic telco charges too much for "broadband" (its only 128kb ADSL) and the service is unreliable. Its also capped at 5gb (up and down, apparently its ALL traffic too, whether its national or international) and their usage meter is very unreliable.
The only thing I don't like about dial up really, is that it takes too long to download Linux iso's. If I could do that quickly, I'd be happy.
