MBN EditorialThe lead up to Christmas is always exciting/stressful/chaotic – but this year in our family, we have decided to stay home, limit the gifts and the expense, eat our fill at a hotel restaurant feast on Christmas day and enjoy the simple things that money can't buy – family, friends and time relaxing in the pool, in front of the box or catching up on some sleep.
Whatever your plans, this is the ideal time of year to consider your business goals and strategies for 2009. Fortunately, financial pundits anticipate the 'recession' taking an 'upward turn' around May next year, so that's a beacon on the horizon.
For many, cutting the marketing and PR budgets is part of general reduction of overheads, but our experts say that's precisely what your competitors hope you'll do. As food for thought, take a look at the 'PR or Perish'-themed piece this week.
Also this issue we look at shows including PIMEX, Dubai, the recent Emirates show and, in the wake of the recent terror attacks in Mumbai, we'll be updating you on plans for the 2009 Mumbai Boat Show. We also have full coverage of the Kings Cup in Phuket, where our Sail-World team is on location for the racing and festivities.
There are plenty of product launches, local news, views and information, so please visit as often as you have a chance for the latest in marine business.
As I tuck in to a slice of fruit cake and anticipate white Christmas for lunch, my advice is get your shopping done early, enjoy the sights, savour the aromas of the food halls, the sticky puddings and salty hams and enjoy the last few weeks before the end of what has been an eventful year.Jeni Bone, Editor PR spells Prosperity Jeni Bone, It may be tempting to cut the advertising budget during any 'downturn in the economy', but according to the experts, smart businesses do just the opposite and, in fact, focus on PR and media relations to ride out the tough times....

|Spontaneous tension pneumothorax: what is it and does it exist?
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 23227475 Owner: NLM Status: In-Process
|Tension pneumothorax is variously defined but is generally thought of as a pneumothorax in which the pressure of intrapleural gas exceeds atmospheric pressure, producing adverse effects, including mediastinal shift associated with cardiovascular collapse, often attributed to reduced venous return and kinking of the great vessels. The mechanism of tension pneumothorax is said to be a valvular defect in the visceral pleura such that air enters the pleural space in inspiration but cannot exit in expiration, leading to a progressive increase in pressure. However, as the driving pressure forcing air into the pleura in inspiration is atmospheric pressure, the pleural pressure can never exceed 1 atm during inspiration in a spontaneously breathing subject. Furthermore, all pneumothoraces must have pressures greater than atmospheric during expiration, or conventional treatment with intercostal tube drainage would not work. Pilot experiments have failed to show any re-entry of pleural gas into the lung in patients with persistent air leaks but no evidence of tension, suggesting these behave as valvular pneumothoraces. Case reports of tension pneumothorax in spontaneously breathing patients are rare, and most patients have other explanations for clinical deterioration. Although a large and rapidly expanding pneumothorax may require urgent intervention, it is unlikely that the effects are mediated by high intrapleural pressures. The term tension pneumothorax in spontaneously breathing patients should be reconsidered.

Can you get charms that will fit a Pandora bracelet at Walt Disney World?
Can you get charms that will fit a Pandora bracelet at Walt Disney World?
If ever there is a tomorrow when we're not together.......
there is something you must always remember.
You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.
But the most important thing is, even if we're apart...... I'll always be with you.
Winne the Pooh - A A Milne
A friend is a hand that is always holding yours,
no matter how close or far apart you may be.
A friend is someone who is always there and will always, always care.
A friend is a feeling of forever in the heart.
Last Dec I was at the Poly gift shop and was going to buy a Chamilia charm. I didn't have my Pandora bracelet with me. I was told not all if the charms will fit and there is a 24 hour return policy. I didn't buy the charm. I plan to take my bracelet with me next time. The nice charms are in the jewelry case. They have cheap charms on the racks.

President Andrew Johnson Vetoes the Freedman's Bureau Bill
In this cartoon from "Harper's Weekly," April 14, 1866, President Johnson is shown kicking a bureau down some stairs. As the bureau falls, small black figures tumble all around. The bureau represents the Freedman's Bureau Bill, which was designed to extend the life of the Freedman's Bureau. The Freedman's Bureau, also known as the Bureau of Refugees, Freedmen and Abandoned Lands, was designed to provide welfare to blacks recently freed from slavery. It supervised all relief and educational activities relating to refugees and freedmen, and issued rations, clothing and medicine. The Bureau also assumed custody of confiscated lands or property in the former Confederate States, border states, District of Columbia, and Indian Territory. President Johnson's veto of the bill was overridden by Congress.

Fantastic Washer & Design
I bought this to replace a GE washer that (finally) died. My old washer was loud, we could hear it throughout the house when it was running, and it was supposedly a quiet washer. This Bosch brand is really, really well designed. I installed it myself and there are LOTS of great features to assist in that. Water connection is in the front, as well as the electrical connection. You don't need wire nuts as you connect to a connection block, but you do need a Romex strain relief, the 1/4" to 3/8" version, since the washer does not come with it. Also, get a long hot water connection hose, since you need to connect to the front of the washer. Rear adustment height is made from the front of the washer, which is a nice touch and makes installation that much easier. Lots of neat design features. No exposed heating coil at the bottom, so no items that fall to the bottom will melt. None of the spayers are aimed at the door, to reduce noise. Top rack is height adjustable, and comes completely out if you have something extra tall. Check the Bosch website for more info & details on the design features. Just looking at the cotton insulation around this thing you know its quiet. I love all the nice touches that help to reduce the noise. They really work. It is not "silent" but you cannot hear it with the TV on, except when it is draining the old water. I haven't had it long enough to gauge energy and water use, but supposedly it is one of the better ones in terms of energy efficiency. It seems to clean very well. Recommendation from Bosch is that you stick with powdered detergents and use a rinse aid. I have been doing that and it appears to clean very well, much better than my old GE washer. I would highly recommend this washer.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

It will not wake the baby
The name speaks for itself. It is quiet and leaves a spot free shine. A little cumberson to install. The water intake is in the front. It has been the best dishwasher I've used.

from Boston, ma
Great Dishwasher
The dishwasher was a snap to install. Bosch details what needs to be done in easy to do steps. It is easy to level as well. The dw washes quite well and does a good enough job drying (if you leave the dishes in their for a little bit after the cycle is finished. I would recommend this dw to anybody who appreciates quality. You can't even hear the thing running (thanks to Bosch for the light that shines on the floor).

Great product and merchant
This is very nice and super quiet dishwasher. Relatively easy and simple installation There is no express wash cycle - I guess one can "express wash" by hand :) My unit was made in USA; so far acceptable assembly quality Most of Bosch dishwashers would require installer to be very careful when connecting drain hose. I had to secure it next to drain outlet as it is very fragile. Special note for Abe's of Maine sales and customer service: it was great. Though none of my emails got answered - all concernes was quickly resolved over the phone. Delivery company (AM Trucking) in California is not great at all. Delivery crew insisted on extra payment to bring the item inside the house, left a mess after themselves and refused to cleanup.

Quiet, simple and functional
Very good, quiet, well designed and quality product. Note, that power cord is not included. There is no quick cycle - shortest wash time is 99 minutes. upon delivery take your time to inspect the product: open the door, remove baseboard cover at the bottom. Sign after you checked twice. Installation notes: after attaching drain hose to the back I would recommend drill 2 holes in the plastic base and secure hose with wire tire(s) through drilled holes. This will privent potencial drain connector bending and/or cracking when you'll be moving unit in place.

Ravenstahl offers few answers about federal investigation into police spending
Mayor Luke Ravenstahl said on Wednesday during a rare public appearance that federal authorities have sent him no personal subpoenas or target letter as their investigation of Pittsburgh police spending has crept closer to his office.
Ravenstahl, 33, deflected many questions about the investigation but answered more than he has in several months. Dressed in a blazer with no tie, Ravenstahl arrived 10 minutes late for an event to announce a city energy initiative.
"All those things will come out in the end," he said beside the Engine 27 fire station in Mt. Washington as reporters asked him about the FBI's attempts to interview his ex-wife, what one of his former bodyguards might have to say and about a former city contractor set to plead guilty to bid-rigging.
He said he hasn't spoken with investigators since February. He mentioned cooperating with the investigation but would not say how.
"I look forward to the truth prevailing," he said. He referred some questions to his personal attorney, Charles Porter Jr., who did not return a call.
The mayor insisted the investigation has not affected his leadership of the city. He denied any connection between the investigation and reduced public appearances since he announced March 1 he would not seek re-election, but he would not explain his low profile.
"The fact that I've withdrawn from public view to a certain extent is a decision I've made, but in no way is it an indication of me not doing my job," he said. "You all think my job is talking to you."
Ravenstahl on Tuesday met privately in his conference room with several people who donated to a charity program. Reporters were not allowed in.
Before that, 33 days passed since his last public appearance for a police promotion ceremony in City Hall. He would not answer questions then about the investigation.
If Ravenstahl is concerned about the investigation's dark cloud, "He should be looking for the sunshine himself," said Gerald Shuster, a professor of political communications at the University of Pittsburgh.
"The mere fact that he has to say that he is (doing his job) gives credence to the criticism that he may not be," said Shuster, who called Ravenstahl a bit of a political recluse since the investigation became public in January.
During the spring primary, the candidates to replace Ravenstahl seized on his absence from public view, promising to take a more active role in leadership. The winner of the Democratic primary, Councilman Bill Peduto, this week spent two days in Harrisburg meeting with lawmakers and state officials on behalf of the city.
"Part of your role as mayor is being visible and doing a certain amount of public relations," Shuster said.
Weeks after a grand jury in March indicted former police Chief Nate Harper on corruption charges, two of Ravenstahl's bodyguards and his personal secretary appeared before a grand jury.
Investigators have copies of valet parking permits the city issued to Robert Gigliotti, a Ravenstahl political supporter who is friends with Harper. Ravenstahl said the city received no more subpoenas for records since turning over the parking permits in May.
Porter said authorities were looking at records of home improvements done at the mayor's Fineview home by city contractor William J. Rogers. The mayor's ex-wife, Erin Feith, rejected two attempts by federal investigators to interview her about the mayor, her lawyer said.
Harper has spoken with federal authorities at least twice since his indictment on charges of tax evasion and using city money from secret credit union accounts on personal spending. Harper plans to plead guilty, his lawyers say.
Another former Harper friend and former contractor, Arthur Bedway, plans to plead guilty to charges connected to a rigged contract bid once he negotiates a deal with prosecutors. He has been cooperating with authorities.
Ravenstahl said Wednesday he has never met Bedway, 63, of Robinson.
Ravenstahl's former police bodyguard, Fred Crawford, said this month he would "spill his guts" to investigators about what he considered improper use of the guards and credit union cards.
Ravenstahl repeated his position that Crawford is not telling the truth. Crawford could not be reached for comment.

Police say they now have some tips that they are investigating in regards to the car vandalism we've reported this week.
More than 30 vehicles across Lexington either had slashed tires or windows broken out.
This happened in the Tates Creek Road area, and in the Pickway neighborhood as well.
Police said they had no leads or suspects in the case. But after a story aired Thursday on 27 NEWSFIRST about Crime Stoppers offering a cash reward, investigators say they got some tips in the case that they are now looking into.
If you know anything about these crimes, call Crime Stoppers at 859-253-2020.

The Mescalero Apache Tribe is one of four New Mexico tribal communities that will be involved in a federally funded program aimed at reducing childhood obesity.
The New Mexico Department of Health said the four Native American communities, along with 10 New Mexico counties, were selected to be part of Healthy Kids New Mexico based on a number of factors including population, health status, poverty, racial and ethnic diversity. Readiness to implement prevention programs also was a deciding factor. Healthy Kids New Mexico includes partnerships with state agencies such as Children, Youth and Families, the Public Education Department, along with local schools, municipalities and community organizations.
"Parents, family members, teachers and community members need to continue to work collaboratively to encourage children to eat healthy and be active," said Retta Ward, New Mexico's secretary-designate of the Department of Health. "It's a lifestyle change we all need to work on together. We need to set better examples by eating more fruits and vegetables and getting off the couch and being active, whether it's playing a sport or just getting out to a playground."
More than 14 percent of New Mexico kindergartners and about 21 percent of students in the third grade were obese in 2012, according to the 2012 update of "The Weight of Our Children," released last week. Significantly more American Indian children in New Mexico experience childhood obesity than any other racial/ethnic group, according to the update.
Childhood obesity increases the risk of Type 2 Diabetes, high cholesterol and high blood pressure, which are among the precursors to heart disease. Children who adopt healthy habits early may reduce the likelihood of developing chronic diseases as adults.
Among the Healthy Kids New Mexico initiatives at Mescalero will be the construction of a walking trail along Tularosa Creek in the center of the Mescalero Apache community.

Name: Dennis Sautters
Residence: I live in the Canton area between Canton and North Canton, but I work in Uhrichsville and commute.
Hometown: Canton
Family: Wife
How long have you volunteered at the Dennison Railroad Depot Museum? I began volunteering for all train rides beginning with the second year of the "Polar Express" trains.
Have you been a lifelong fan of trains? Yes. My interest began when I was a very young boy, running my dad's Lionel train around underneath the Christmas tree. I belong to the National Railway Historical Society and the Sebring Model Railroad Club, that owns the old railroad depot in Sebring. Our club layout is inside the portion of the depot that was for freight, and our meeting room is in the portion that was for passengers to buy tickets and wait for the trains.
What do you enjoy most when traveling on excursions as a conductor? The smiles and laughter from our passengers. The rides are really fun and entertaining.
What is the most unusual question you've been asked regarding trains or train travel? I have been asked about the screeching that occurs here and there along the ride, and I explain that the screeching is the wheel flanges rubbing against the rails, especially around curves. The wheel flanges are very important, because they keep the wheels on the rails. One girl thought someone should go out and put some oil on it. Actually, the railroad does have automatic greasers that put grease on the rails on sharp curves to reduce wear caused by the extra friction that occurs on those curves.
How about the funniest question? I don't recall any funny questions. While punching their tickets, some youngsters have asked me who was driving the train, to which I respond that the engineer is in the engine driving the train. The conductor is in charge of the train, but does not operate it. The engineer is not allowed to start the train going forward until the conductor tells him it is time to go. How does the conductor know when it is time to go? I pull out my big pocket watch and show them that I know when it is time to go because I keep track of the time with my pocket watch. My pocket watch is an authentic 116-year-old watch, made by the Dueber-Hampton Watch Co. that was in Canton.
Do you have memories of traveling by train? My parents never took me on any trains rides other than kiddie rides at amusement parks. My first train ride was on my own as an adult in 1977 on a special excursion train pulled by a steam locomotive from Kent, Ohio, to Greenville, Pa., and back. When vacationing, I go to places where I can take a scenic train-ride excursion, hopefully pulled by a steam locomotive.
Page 2 of 2 - Why do you think people still enjoy train trips? It is a great way to travel while relaxing and seeing the country without hectic driving among traffic, construction and traffic jams. For long trips, the train becomes a rolling hotel and restaurant.
What are some memories you have of your years with the Polar Express? After traveling down the train tracks for a while, I approached a young boy and his family and asked them, "Tickets, please." This young boy really knew his geography, and asked me if we were in Canada yet.
Upon approaching the "North Pole" and not seeing snow, a youngster asked if we were really at the North Pole and if so, then where is the snow? I briefly explained to him about global warming.
Can you tell us four things about trains or train travel people might not realize?
1. Every conductor was assigned a special ticket punch with a special-shaped hole, and all punch hole shapes were different. So if a passenger had a complaint, the supervisor would know who was the conductor on that train trip by looking at the hole shape on the passenger's ticket. I have an authentic antique railroad punch, and its hole is in the shape of a lazy "W" and kind of looks like a flying bat. My main punch has a shamrock-shaped hole.
2. Rail lines have traffic lights that show engineers and conductors whether to keep on going or whether to slow down and stop for another train ahead.
3. There are two locomotives on the "Polar Express." One is up front, facing front, and is used to pull the train to the "North Pole" and the other is on the rear, facing the rear. At the "North Pole," the engineer climbs out of the front locomotive, walks to the back of the train, and climbs into the rear locomotive, which becomes the new front of the train to pull it back to Dennison.
4. The locomotive that pulls the "Polar Express" train is often referred to as a diesel locomotive, but the diesel engine does not power the axles to move the locomotive. The locomotive is actually diesel-electric, meaning the diesel engine only powers an electric generator. The electricity generated from the generator goes to electric motors that power the axles and wheels to move the locomotive.

Romantic Suspense
Rating: 5 Cups
Grace Addison always had a childhood crush on Nick Morelli but circumstances in her life detour to another route when she loses her mother.
Nick Morelli, a former Atlanta police detective, suffers much with the loss of his partner but one night with Grace and he cannot get her out of his mind.
Grace has suffered much with a father who beat her and a mother with bipolar. Unable to adequately care for her mother, she placed her in an institution. After her mother dies, Grace discovers some letters and a diary that causes curiosity. The night of her mother's death, she meets someone that favors a boy she had a crush on in school. They spend the night together then the next day, Grace is off to the small town, outside of Savannah, where she was raised, hoping to unlock the secrets. After Nick lost a partner in a tragic shooting, it left him with mental and emotional trauma. He tries his best to overcome his pain. Grace enters town and the minute she sees Nick, the fireworks explode between them, but they both have a hurt they must try to heal.
Legacy is filled with mystery and intrigue not to mention a heart-tugging struggle of a young girl trying to accept her mother's condition. Grace and Nick have more than a steamy passion for each other. They have a love that lives forever if they can only get through their troubled past. Watching Grace mature into womanhood, and become strong defeating her past, and Nick overcoming the trauma was a remarkable read. Flesa Black paints a dark story that touches the reader with characters whose emotions lace through the pages. She pens one extraordinary intense read that is wonderfully detailed.

Comments: The dampener is very secure and works great. My only complaint is that for this price I feel that Tecnifibre

My freezer is a capicitor???? what about all that dielectric loading caused by frozen meat and veggies? I would think it would be so low q and so lossy that even if it were near a substation transformer, it would have trouble conducting electricity. The big electrical threat is during film handling. A fast move with the dark slide or rewinding roll film too fast would be the biggest problem.
My photos are always without all that distracting color ...
I know a lot about capacitors, EMF, all those little things that goes inside an electronic whatever.
That's how I earn the money I spend in film and paper...
But never heard about low frequency electromagnetic fields affecting film.
That would be real news for me.

If it's constructed of two metal plates separated by a dielectric, then yes, it is.
Wait a minute. Can I plug my strobe heads into it?

Sure. Recycle time will be about six years. Be sure to pay your model by the job, not by the hour.

I have *no* proof, but I would venture a guess that the film did not change much ... but the chemistries in the processing DID. Even with Rodinal ...
I've read that at least one European company advertises a formula *very* close to "the OLD Rodinal".

A freezer constructed with metal as the inside wall and then insulation with metal outside concentrates cosmic energy and the concentration of energy can fog light-sensitive material. A freezer constructed out of cement block with insulation on the inside will not conduct that energy nor will it fog film. Because of this phenomena, I recently built a cement block freezer.
Main point: you do not want metal on the inside.

Stars to practice in Euless Saturday at noon
UPDATE: I'm bumping this up because the time has been changed.
They make these trips usually once a year, so everyone out Tarrant County way should take note.
The NHL has been excellent since the lockout in making their practices open to the public. You literally can stand next to the glass while your heroes circle around in practice. It is pretty neat, because the chance to get next to players in other sports doesn't come around like this.
Practice is scheduled to start at noon at the Dr Pepper Star Center in Euless.

High Voltage To Reveal New IP At E3
Posted by Jon Wahlgren
Promise to deliver experiences "beyond jaw-dropping."
High Voltage Software, behind the much-touted FPS The Conduit, are busy, busy bees. So busy, in fact, that before they've even released one retail Wii game, they're already working on more.
"I won't say much about our new property until we unveil it at E3," said High Voltage Software chief creative officer Eric Nofsinger. "But I can guarantee that we are continuing to push our technology to the absolute limit in order to deliver experiences that are beyond jaw-dropping."
Pretty big talk right there. We already know that HVS are one of the more technically capable Wii devs out there (or one that has at least tried), so bring it on, we say.
Can E3 come any sooner?

A young woman's yearning for inner peace is about to be realized—at a trip to the woods where she unlocks the secrets of the ever-thinking mind. Hosted by spiritual master S. N. Goenka, a ten-day silent retreat she attends irrevocably alters her perspective…and her future.
"Inner Pilgrimage: Ten Days to a Mindful Me" is a comprehensive, moment-by-moment description of the author's ten-day vipassana meditation retreat. The story unfolds with her arrival at the retreat as an ordinary being seeking a calmer, more centered existence. Sacrificing every luxury and self-indulgence, and following a rigid daily routine that excludes reading, writing, praying, listening to music, watching television, and talking, the author spends ten hours everyday, meditating. She focuses on her breath and observes her bodily sensations, often without moving for hours at a time.

Today's WSJ looks at efforts by Bruce Lee's family to turn the martial arts star into a global brand on par with Elvis Presley and James Dean, more than 36 years after his death. Mr. Lee's daughter, Shannon, has set up licensing and production companies and consulted with the estates of other celebrities for advice on how to keep a deceased icon alive.
But while Mr. Lee's image has been officially licensed for use by a range of companies, from jeansmaker Lucky to Nokia (which used it to promote a mobile phone with this inventive commercial), there are plenty of unlicensed image floating around on T-shirts, posters and other memorabilia.

Option #1: Making a Multi-Year Annual Fund Commitment
- Gifts to the Annual Fund are the foundation of giving. These gifts support on an annual basis the operations of the college and specifically provide funding for the Law Review, clinics, scholarship needs.
- We're encouraging Mitchell alumni and friends, as part of the "If Not for Mitchell" Campaign, to make multi-year commitments of five years or more to the Annual Fund. This helps the college in its financial planning and helps donors in that they won't be bothered with Annual Fund solicitations or phone calls during the period of his or her pledge.
Option #2: Create Traditional Named Scholarship Endowment
- A named endowment is created with a minimum commitment of $25,000, payable over 5 years. The endowment is invested and continues to grow in perpetuity.
- Scholarship is awarded once endowment hits a minimum of $25,000. Payout on the endowment is 5% annually. For $25,000 endowment, payout for scholarship is $1,250 a year.
Option #3: Create Named Living Endowment
A living endowment includes designating a named endowment in your bequest or will. Then you put it to work immediately through annual gifts, enabling you to see the impact of your giving right now.
Sample Living Endowment with Annual Gifts of $2,500
- Bequest commitment—$50,000. Would be put into an endowment, paying out 5% or $2,500 a year for the scholarship or other program.
- Annual commitment to put the program to work immediately: $2,500/year for 10 years.
|Bequest commitment
|Annual Gifts for 10 years
|Total Gift
Option #4: Include Mitchell as a Beneficiary of IRA or Will
A bequest from a will, living trust or IRA lets you pass the amount you wish to Mitchell free of estate and other taxes. For a bequest, you can commit cash, specific property or a percentage of your estate, with restrictions or without. Because your gift doesn't come to us until after your lifetime, you can change your mind at any time.

Pathetic Dan Savage
June is ŌĆ£Gay Pride Month,ŌĆØ which immediately begs two questions: Says who? and, How is it that we have become a nation of such compliant sheep that we accept this rubbish?
The Viacom corporation, on the other hand, thinks itŌĆÖs the perfect opportunity for its MTV and gay Logo channels to announce theyŌĆÖre creating a second "It Gets Better" anti-bullying special starring their favorite gay bully, Dan Savage. On the cusp of this news, Savage denounced the gay group GOProud for endorsing Mitt Romney for president: "The GOPŌĆÖs house faggots grab their ankles on this one."
This F-bomb has destroyed careers in Hollywood ŌĆō see Isaiah Washington, the former star of "GreyŌĆÖs Anatomy." But Savage just signed with Creative Artists Agency to line up his business offers. One wonders if the reporters who cover television will ever dare to ask the Viacom brass how they square SavageŌĆÖs routine bullying bursts ŌĆō whether into a microphone or into a keyboard ŌĆō with the transparently false anti-bullying persona theyŌĆÖre promoting to make themselves look community-minded.
Hypocrisy doesnŌĆÖt get more blatant than this. ItŌĆÖs coming not just from Viacom, but from all those diversity-loving, tolerance-dreaming press critics who ultimately really donŌĆÖt mean a word of it.
Savage is "more mainstream than ever before," oozed a recent profile in the Chicago Tribune. In their article, we discover it is now "more mainstream" for Savage to proclaim that the nationŌĆÖs most devout religious leaders are cheerleaders for teen suicides. "Every dead gay kid is a moral, rhetorical victory for them. They stand on a pile of dead gay kids."
The Tribune didnŌĆÖt find this inaccurate or offensive. Referring to SavageŌĆÖs fear that ŌĆ£It Gets BetterŌĆØ makes him look like a ŌĆ£milquetoast,ŌĆØ the Tribune declared, "If Dan Savage is milquetoast, then he is a particularly piquant version."
At a student journalism conference in early May, Savage caused a student walkout as he trashed the Bible as a "radical pro-slavery document." If it was wrong on slavery, "on the easiest moral question that humanity has ever faced...What are the odds that the Bible got something as complicated as human sexuality wrong? 100 percent," Savage said. He mocked the students who walked out in protest ŌĆ£ItŌĆÖs funny, as someone who is the receiving end of beatings that are justified by the Bible, how pansy-assed some people react when you push back," Savage said.
In a new interview with the Minneapolis Star-Tribune, Savage repeated that "religious people need to learn to ignore what the Bible says about gay people, or seems to say, the same way they ignore what the Bible says about shellfish and slavery. We're not asking religious people to do anything they haven't already done, which is to let go of the parts of the Bible that discriminate. They've done it before with slavery and they can do it again with homosexuality."
Savage isnŌĆÖt hiding his agenda: Hey hey, ho ho, the Holy Bible has got to go. Hollywood has made this view "more mainstream than ever,ŌĆØ and he knows it. This secular sex columnist doesnŌĆÖt have any need to express civility toward his opponents. There is only the flamethrower and the grenades for this commando.
This line was also in his "more mainstream than ever" basket, equating marriage to rape: " We should start calling male-on-female rape ŌĆśtraditionalŌĆÖ rape. Because if all ŌĆśtraditionalŌĆÖ means is that it's between a man and woman, that's setting the bar pretty low."
This man not only hates Christians, he despises Christianity itself.
MTV just wrapped up its season of "Savage U," the show where Savage travels to college campuses doling out profane sex "education."For twelve episodes on twelve college campuses, MTV posed Savage as the compassionate wise man as he says the most outrageous things. In the season finale at Texas Tech, Savage preached that contraceptives must be used to prevent "the worldŌĆÖs oldest and most disruptive sexually transmitted infection: pregnancy." He confessed his MTV sidekick Lauren Hutchinson doesnŌĆÖt like that lingo because "sheŌĆÖs so sentimental that way about babies."
Savage is so unsentimental that heŌĆÖs insulted his own adopted son D. J. as thuggish. In an adoring NPR interview last year with Terry Gross, he cracked, "If he didnŌĆÖt have us for parents ŌĆö heŌĆÖs a little thuggy snowboarder-skateboarder dude ŌĆö and I like to think that heŌĆÖs blessed to have us as parents because you can see in him the capacity to be a bully." Thanks, ŌĆ£Dad.ŌĆØ
Earth to Viacom: You are ridiculous when you announce anti-bullying specials hosted by pathetic bullies like Dan Savage. It makes about as much sense as a special promoting vegetarianism hosted by Ronald McDonald.

OXFORD -- The Oxford College athletics department wants community members to have a little fun while supporting the school's athletes.
Starting at 8 a.m. April 17, the college will hold its third annual Golf Classic at the Oaks Course, which is located at 11240 Brown Bridge Road in Covington.
"This is a chance to get out in the spring weather, enjoy a great sport and get to know other golf enthusiasts," said Brandon Feldman, director of athletics at the college.
He said the tournament is for anyone.
"The emphasis for the event is fun -- even first-time golfers will enjoy the day," he said. "It's for all skill levels. We play best ball, so you can be playing with a variety of players. It makes it fun for everybody."
Those interested can sign up for $360 per foursome or $100 per golfer to be paired with other players to create a foursome. There is no limit on the number who can participate.
Lunch and beverages are included in the fee, and prizes for both skill and fun will be awarded at the event.
"It's a fun atmosphere," Feldman said. "We had a great turnout last year, so we hope people come out to show their support."
Proceeds from the tournament will support the Oxford Athletics Department, which is made up of four varsity teams and three club sports.
"It will help with travel for the varsity teams and operational expenses for the club sports," Feldman said.
Sponsorship opportunities for the event are available for between $100 and $250 and $2,000 for an overall title sponsorship. Interested businesses, organizations or individuals also may donate prizes for a post-tournament raffle.
To reserve a spot or sponsorship or for more information about the event, interested residents may contact Andy Spruell at 770-784-4633 or email@example.com.

CHATHAM — Inside the office of Mooncusser Films, filmmaker Chris Seufert sits at his computer and relives a scene he shot almost two decades ago.
On the computer screen is an image of the late artist Edward Gorey, sitting cross-legged in the kitchen of his Yarmouth Port home, one ring-clad hand stroking his pet cat. Gorey is recounting a time in New York City and his fondness for the ballet and, just as he is about to burst into laughter, Seufert presses the pause button.
This scene will be one of many included in Seufert's upcoming documentary about Gorey, a project that, after 18 years in the making, will soon be gracing the silver screen.
"It's hard to find Edward the person, himself, and that's what this is about," Seufert said. From 1996 until Gorey's death in 2000, Seufert filmed the artist on a regular basis, capturing his daily routines and the occasional interview.
Over the four years of filming, Seufert forged a close bond with Gorey, gaining access to the life of the innovative, and often reclusive, bohemian.
Seufert first started shooting the documentary when he was a young filmmaker in his late 20s. With a background in anthropological filmmaking, Seufert was inspired by observational cinema and the use of unedited film to showcase a subject's true form. While he originally intended to film scenes of Gorey performing different tasks and then have interviews of him reflecting on said tasks, the plans quickly changed.
"I would ask him about the significance of his work, and he would start talking about Meryl Streep," Seufert said. "He was giving me what he wanted the world to know about him, and it was some pretty eccentric stuff."
Although the documentary is coming together, it is not the same film that Seufert set out to make. Gorey's sudden death from heart failure at age 75 came as a surprise to Seufert, and was nothing like what he had prepared for.
"For me, those four years were really just test footage," Seufert said, "In a parallel universe, I'm still shooting and Edward's 88. If he was still alive I wouldn't finish the film, I would keep shooting as an excuse to hang out with him probably."
To balance the film, Seufert combines his footage and interviews of Gorey with animation and interviews of the artist's friends and colleagues. "I want it to feel like you spent a day with Edward," Seufert said.
Seufert hopes to gain interviews from award-winning filmmaker Tim Burton and Daniel Handler, author of the best-selling book series "A Series of Unfortunate Events," both of whom credit Gorey for influencing them in their own creative pursuits.
For an award-winning author, illustrator, and playwright, Gorey was often misunderstood by the public, according to director and curator of the Edward Gorey House, Rick Jones.
"People always thought that he was both British and dead; at least now they're half right," Jones said.
Gorey was not fond of being called "macabre" or "sinister" either, according to Greg Hischak, assistant director at the Gorey House. In fact, Gorey's works were mostly reflective of his dark sense of humor, according to Hischak, "He wasn't sinister or macabre; he was just having fun with that."
As a person and artist, Gorey never took himself too seriously, according to Seufert, and maintaining Gorey's sense of humor in the documentary is a major interest. "I hope that I keep it honest and unrefined enough to be fun," Seufert said. "I hope he would laugh, and he would laugh at himself."
Gorey was exceptionally humble and never sought out fame with his works, according to Seufert. "I think he is one of the greatest documentary subjects who ever lived, and he would hate that."
In September, Seufert plans to submit the finished documentary to the Sundance Film Festival. To comply with festival rules, which prohibit submissions from premiering anywhere prior to entry, Seufert has opted to show rough-cut footage from the documentary to local audiences.
"Showing the project in its raw, ugly, unfinished state has been really good for the project. I've been able to see how the stuff goes over," Seufert said.
The screenings also help set deadlines, according to Seufert, that keep the project moving toward its upcoming Sundance entry.
Rough-cut premieres have proven effective in fundraising for the untitled film as well, Seufert said. Between screenings and a campaign on the fundraising website Kickstarter, Seufert has raised more than $60,000 for the film. Proceeds allow Seufert to license footage and artwork for use in the film.
Now, after 18 years, Seufert is almost ready to say goodbye to the subject that has been by his side for almost his entire filmmaking career. While Seufert gets ready to put the film to rest, he plans to take with him a lesson that Gorey taught him in their days of filming.
"He taught me to follow my bliss. When you do that, the world opens for you."

Keep Your Optics Afloat
Vero Vellini, maker of the Vero Vellini Marine Binocular Float Strap, reminds boaters to pack life preservers for everyone aboard their boat — as well as for binoculars, cameras, and other optics. Since boaters capture memories on their camera and enhance their boating experiences with radios and GPS devices, it makes sense to keep these items from sinking if they end up in the water.
Crafted of extra-thick Neoprene padding with safety-orange jersey material on either side, the Vero Vellini Marine Binocular Float Strap is easy to see if it goes overboard and easy to grab with hands or a hook, so your precious items can be brought safely back onboard. The 15mm-thick and 65mm-wide Neoprene strap is designed to keep afloat a 7×50 or equivalent-size binocular, camera or handheld item and it's soft design also feels exceptionally comfortable around the neck. The comfort of the Vero Vellini strap is extremely important after a long day in the sun.

The countdown to Christmas has officially begun, which means the season for giving has arrived.
Many organizations across the Brazos Valley are kicking off their charitable donations drive, including Candy 95, a local radio station that has kicked off their annual Christmas Angel drive.
The station has received a record 500 names of local children whose family might not be able to afford holiday gifts. Along with those names they received a few gifts that child is hoping to get, which range from items like clothes to bikes and toys.
And though economic troubles may have tightened some Christmas budgets of those that normally donate during the holiday season, the station is hoping that they can get all of the children the presents they want this year.
"It doesn't cost a whole lot to help out a child in need during Christmas. It's just an extra present under the tree that you can give to someone else. It's something we think is really important. Because we know Christmas is about the kids," said Alli, a morning DJ with the station.
The station will be accepting presents for the children through December 12, or will also be accepting monetary donations of any amount to buy the gifts for those shoppers that may be strapped for time.
The list of children, along with their wish lists, can be found on the Candy 95 Christmas Angel Tree located at both Blue Baker restaurants in College Station.
