BEIJING, May 21, 2013 /CNW/ - Air China will make its baggage through check-in service from international cities to domestic cities (I-D) via Beijing more accessible. Starting May 21 (Beijing time), Air China passengers who travel from London, Paris, Dusseldorf, Munich, Frankfurt, Rome, Milan, Stockholm, Vancouver, Los Angeles, San Francisco, New York, and Geneva transferring to other Chinese cities via Beijing Capital International Airport can have their baggage checked all the way through to their final destination at the airport of origin. Houston will also be on the list of the cities with the baggage through check-in service when the route is inaugurated, bringing the total number of cities with this service to 14. (Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20080625/CNW017LOGO ) The baggage through check-in service via Beijing Capital International Airport which Air China introduced on September 15, 2012 has greatly eased the experience of passengers. Passengers used to have to claim their baggage and check in their baggage again to the final destination at the transfer airport. But with baggage through check-in, passengers arriving at Beijing Capital International Airport just need to clear the usual immigration formalities for the transfer without having to worry about their baggage. The international cities where Air China's baggage through check-in service is available are located in Britain, France, Germany, Italy, Switzerland, Sweden, the United States, and Canada. Europe and North America are Air China's two most important overseas markets, and this year, the carrier will focus on these two regions. This year, Air China moves to cement its foothold in Europe and North America with three new routes (Beijing-Geneva, Chengdu-Frankfurt, and Beijing-Houston) as well as upgrade its New York operations. The baggage through check-in service and the newly introduced routes will give Air China a new competitive edge. On the strategic front, Air China has an ambition to go international and shape itself into a large network carrier with the ability to compete on the international arena. The introduction of the baggage through check-in service at Beijing Capital International Airport is a milestone endeavor to cement Beijing as Air China's hub. On the service front, Air China is committed to offering passengers pleasant travel experiences. Air China hopes that over time the baggage through check-in service will be available to more cities to benefit passengers.

Ever wanted to help others? Even doing something small? Like making someone smile or help the less fortunate?
Now you have the chance to do so! This Youtube Channel will be dedicated to spreading happiness! Happiness for the random people in our video AND for the viewers!
I know what you are thinking: But isn't happiness free? Why would you need $?
95% of the money raised will be used to purchase materials; like water/juice bottles, Blankets, gloves, scarves, Sandwiches, and Gift cards for the homeless..
Suspend coffee for the people in line behind us at a cafe..
Leaving a big tip for the server at a restaurant..
Paying for people's gas..
Paying people's meals at drive-through..
Thing is.. it's all RANDOM and unexpecting people! That's our aim! Catch unexpecting people off guard and then catch their smiles on video!
(We will ALWAYS be open to more ideas!)
As we grow, we will be expanding the channel!
Eventually, we will have a bi-monthly project which we aim to change a homeless person's life. We take them for a meal, to get a haircut/shave, get them a new outfit, then help them get a job to take care of themselves. We then follow up with them after a month!
The other 5% of the money raised will go into marketing the channel and videos. The goal of this fundraiser is to kick start the project and make it self-sustainable.
After 2 or 3 popular videos, the channel will create funds through ads. These funds, in return, will be used to make more videos. The more funds raised through the ads, the more videos we can make! The more videos we can make, the more people we can reach out to and spread happiness to! :)
The aim is to have at least 1-2 videos out for the Christmas season! But we won't stop there!
We will be starting in Montreal, Canada but will eventually change locations to different cities and countries!
The ultimate goal is to spread happiness and inspire others!
Risks and Challenges:One of the main obstacles we will be having is creating the initial momentum for the Channel. But as researched, videos with good quality and contain good deeds (as we will be doing), tend to be shared much quicker. This will boost our spread rate!
We are aiming to have really good quality videos, we already have a professional and experienced team set up to provide record (visual and audio), as well as editing. We are also quite experienced with social networking. This will significantly help spread the channel!
The team consists of experienced Youtubers, professional videographers and photographers as well as well connected people with diverse and international networks!
Another main obstacle will be fundraising. Since we can't offer actual financial or physical rewards, we feel we may have difficulty attracting funds! But I am confident that we can all look into our hearts to contribute (whether financially or by sharing this among our networks) so that we can make this happen!
The reason we can't offer financial/physical rewards, is because we don't want to use funds gathered to buy supplies/materials to help people and end up spending it on rewards!
The requested amount is just enough to make and advertise 4-5 videos. That should be just enough to make the channel self-sustainable in order to continue expanding! Of course, the more we can fundraise, the more initial videos we can film!
About Me:
My name is Anthony Kantara and I'm a citizen of the world! I've lived in several countries! Having been exposed to so many cultures has allowed me to see the world in the a different perspective!
My ultimate goal in life is to travel the world and experience the countless of cultures, and even subcultures and aim to make a difference in people's life in the process.
I'm a born-abroad Canadian and I'm 20 years old currently attending college as well as working almost 50 hours a week. But I always make sure I have time to help others through volunteering! I want to take it to the next level with this channel!
My motivation comes from seeing the people who you help..simply smile! This makes us realize how something so small and make someone so happen! Always a humbling experience! It is my Christian duty to always help others as much as I can, no matter how much or how little I have. As well as trying to live up to the Canadian humanitarian title we hold! :D
I plan to major in International Business and minor in International Relations as well as Conflict Studies and Human Rights.
As mentioned before, we are located in Montreal, Canada. This is a great advantage since the majority of Youtube Viewers are Canadian. But we wish to have a strong international reach. Eventually, we plan on expanding and filming in different neighboring cities, like Ottawa, Quebec City, Toronto, New York, Boston and so on!
I currently run several Facebook pages, which have thousands of followers each! My Instagram account has over 5000 followers, and my Twitter has over 750. All of which (does not include the team's network) will be used to advertise the channel. Then with the help of the 5% of funds received, we can reach out to a much larger audience!
I will be using my Twitter account, mainly, to keep my backers updated on the progress! This will eventually be a medium used to connect with the Youtube Channel's subscribers and fans to get their opinion about this project! ( www.twitter.com/anthonykantara )
The Youtube Channel is www.youtube.com/AKwayFilms . Still under construction but will be good to go by the time the fundraiser ends.
This way you will be able to follow up on our progress building up the channel's design and layout while the fundraiser is taking place.

Most staff were really helpful and courteous. Check in, on-site car rental and cruise port shuttle were flawless.
Shuttle driver at the airport was not helpful at all and didn't even get out of the shuttle to help load or unload our luggage. Very poor! Rooms need some serious updating. Breakfast in the restaurant was slow even though the two servers were very busy.

U.K. Trade Gap Widened as Car Exports Dropped to U.S., China
The U.K. trade deficit widened to the most in three months in February as exports of cars and heavy machinery fell, especially to the U.S., China and Russia.
The goods-trade gap widened to 8.77 billion pounds ($14 billion) from a revised 7.88 billion pounds in January, the Office for National Statistics said today in London. The median of 18 forecasts in a Bloomberg News survey was for a deficit of 7.65 billion pounds. Exports fell 3.4 percent while imports were unchanged.
Prime Minister David Cameron is in Asia this week, leading a trade and diplomatic mission seeking to boost commercial ties with the region. The government hopes exports can bolster the British economy as manufacturers cope with rising unemployment and inflation that's reducing demand at home.
"Concern persists that U.K. exports will be limited in the near term at least by muted global growth," Howard Archer, an economist at IHS Global Insight in London, said before the report. "Meanwhile, moderate domestic demand is likely to limit U.K. imports over the coming months."
Britain's trade deficit with countries outside the European Union widened to 5.02 billion pounds in February from 3.72 billion pounds in January. Exports to those countries fell by 8.8 percent to 11.7 billion pounds.
The gap with EU nations narrowed to 3.76 billion pounds from 4.17 billion pounds.
PV Crystalox Solar Plc, a maker of solar-power components based in Abingdon, England, reported a full-year net loss on March 28 and canceled its dividend due to "very challenging" market conditions.
While Bank of England Governor Mervyn King still says the U.K.'s predicament feels "like a crisis," policy makers kept the central bank's asset-purchase plan unchanged last week as they awaited new forecasts for growth and inflation due next month. The British Chambers of Commerce said April 3 that the U.K. will probably avoid a recession, though the recovery remains "weak."
Nevertheless, U.K. manufacturing growth unexpectedly accelerated in March to the fastest in 10 months, Markit Economics and the Chartered Institute of Purchasing and Supply said in a report last week.

quick IEP question
I moved and paperwork is hard to find, I need a copy of my daughters IEP for her new school. Her old school should have a copy of it right? I believe the ESE director is out sick at her old school, so who should I contact at the old school?
thanks for any help
If she had therapists, they could access it. Also school psychologist, and AEA staff
Quoting Bleddynt:
thanks... ill try them both tomorrow
You can try with others, but you might have to wait for the ESE specialist.

A prototypical center back, Carlos Valdés originally joined the Union on loan from Independiente Sante Fe on Jan. 20, 2011. After missing the entire 2013 season, and most of the 2014 season, Valdes officially re-joined the team by being called back from loan on Aug. 4, in addition to signing a contract extension.
2014: Re-joined the Union from loan on Aug. 4 after representing Colombia at the 2014 FIFA World Cup. In Philadelphia, he was a permanent fixture in the lineup upon return, making eight starts for the Union as the team shored up its defense allowing just 11 goals in those games. He made a crucial double-block against D.C. United, twice denying D.C. on the goal line.
2013: On January 15, Valdes was sent on loan to Independiente Santa Fe for the length of the Liga Postobon Primera A season.
2012: Played and started 33 games, logging 2923 minutes. Valdes became team captain after Danny Califf was traded on May 17. Scored his first goal at PPL Park on July 14 against the Montreal Impact. Valdes was called up for International duty to play for his native Colombia in two World Cup Qualifying games. This was his first appearance with the Colombian national team since 2010. He was named to the MLS All-Star Team for the game against Chelsea at PPL Park.
2011: On Jan. 20, Carlos Valdes was loaned to Philadelphia Union from Independiente Sante Fe. On August 5, Philadelphia Union secured Valdes' full rights. He started 32 regular season games and both postseason matches, logging a total of 3,060 minutes. His first and only goal came in a 3-0 win at NE Revolution on July 7. He helped anchor a back line that allowed an MLS-best 3.05 shots on goal.
2009-2010: Made 54 appearances for Club Santa Fe and scored one goal...Served as captain of the club and lead the team to the Colombian Cup title in 2009, beating Deportivo Pasto by a score of 3-1.
2005-2008: Made 97 appearances for America de Cali, scoring four goals...Became team captain and helped lead his team to the Torneo Finalizacion in 2008, beating Independiente Medellin by a score of 1-0 in the first game and 3-1 in the second game.
2005: Began his career with Real Cartagena and appeared in 33 league matches… Played on a defense that allowed 20 goals in total throughout the season.
INTERNATIONAL EXPERIENCE: Was a member of Colombian national team for the 2014 FIFA World Cup. There, he helped lead the team to its first quarterfinal appearance in federation history. He started a game against Japan in which the team won 4-1. He also helped the Colombian Men's National Team win the U-20 South-American Cup in 2005 and the Central American and Caribbean Games the following year... After making his debut with the senior national squad in 2008, Valdes has been capped four times, scoring one goal… Competed at the 2005 FIFA World Youth Championship, helping Colombia to the Round of 16 before losing to Argentina, the eventual champions.

Sneaky Cheater by goodeggproductionsWatch
©2012-2015 goodeggproductions
So well after the shoot, as I'm retouching these shots, it comes to my attention that the mesh of this outfit goes all the way down, and she's wearing black panties under it. Had I known, I'd have asked her to go without them... but nonetheless, Emily is gorgeous and her body works perfectly with the outfit, panties or not.
Love the outfit, Emily's body looks great in it! Especially the mesh window, shows her fit stomach and cleavage, works perfect.
amazing Model and Picture
She looks great, maby u should do more with her in future...........
This was actually our 4th shoot. If you look, you should be able to find a few more of our work together here. I'd love to shoot with her again if I can find something we haven't done yet.

If the thought of bugs crawling around in a restaurant kitchen near food terrifies you, it's best to stop reading now. A Florida Domino's had to shut down temporarily after inspectors say they witnessed more than 20 lives roaches crawling on a table on the cook's line and hanging out in a bin of onions. [More]
Florida Domino's Shuts Down Because Live Roaches Shouldn't Be Near Food
Domino's Offering 50% Off All Pizzas Ordered Online Through March 22
Because sitting in front of the TV watching basketball game after basketball game can really get your appetite worked up, Domino's is trying to capitalize on March Madness by offering a 50% discount on all pizzas ordered online this week. [More]
Customer Sues Domino's Because Intestine-Piercing Wire Bristles Are Not A Pizza Topping
If you've ordered enough pizzas, you've probably come across a few with a stray topping that shouldn't be there. In most cases, the worst that can happen is you eat some green pepper, sausage, or mushroom that you hadn't intended on consuming. But one Washington state man claims he didn't realize until it was too late — and he was having emergency surgery — that he'd eaten some Domino's Pizza topped with wire bristles. [More]
Court: Domino's Not Responsible For Sexual Harassment Of 16-Year-Old Employee
When a worker at a fast food franchise acts like an a-hole, it's obviously his boss's immediate responsibility to investigate and discipline that employee if necessary. But does the corporate office share any liability when things go wrong at the franchisee level? What about when people from company HQ are involved in the decision of whether or not to dismiss an employee? According to California's highest court, the buck stops at the franchisee's door. [More]
Domino's Hit By Hackers Demanding Ransom For European Customers' Data
Oh look, another day, another hack attack. In the second spate of hacking we've heard reported just today — and it's only Monday, folks — hackers in Europe are holding are holding the accounts of Domino's customers in Belgium and France for ransom. [More]
Now You Can Pay For Your Domino's Pizza With Google Wallet (And Score Free Chicken)
Facing more competition in the online pizza-ordering business, Domino's is trying to stand out in the crowd by saving customers the hassle of having to type in the 16 digits of their credit card numbers. It's also giving away free chicken. [More]
Domino's Hires Back 25 Workers Fired During Wage Dispute
Last week, a Domino's Pizza franchisee in New York City terminated the employment of 25 workers who had filed complaints about being underpaid. That's kind of against the law in New York, and so after receiving a little talking-to from the state Attorney General, the franchisee has agreed to re-hire the previously dismissed employees. [More]
Jury Orders Domino's To Pay $32M In Lawsuit Over Deadly Crash Involving Delivery Driver
A Texas jury is holding Domino's Pizza partially responsible for a car accident involving a delivery driver that killed one woman and left her husband with brain damage. The victims' family claimed that it was Domino's fault that the driver was driving in a car with allegedly bald tires. The jury agreed, awarding the family $32 million and saying that Domino's should have had inspection rules in place to keep such a vehicle off the road. [More]
Domino's Pizza Is So Used To Complaints, It Can't Take A Compliment
You know how some people are conditioned to believe that any statement directed at them must be a complaint, so they don't know how to react when someone says something nice? That's apparently the mindset of whatever robot responds to customers on the Domino's Pizza Facebook page. [More]
Domino's Has A Very Limited Notion Of What "All Your Favorite Toppings" Means
Given that Domino's has around two dozen toppings to choose from, and that some folks love to layer their pizza with multiple toppings, a franchisee could lose big by offering a pizza with "all your favorite toppings" for as little as $9. That is, until you see that Domino's thinks you wouldn't possibly want more than three toppings. [More]
Dear Domino's: Maybe Cut The Marketing Budget, Boost Employee Training
Misti has some advice for Domino's that perhaps would be wise for other businesses to follow: spending money on marketing is all very well and good, but ultimately pointless if you don't train franchisees and staff on how to not treat customers like crap. [More]
Domino's Franchisee Finally Forced To Pay Up After Treating Workers Like Indentured Servants
Did you know that the days of indentured servitude are gone? Yes, it's true! There is such a thing as a federal minimum wage and regulations regarding how you treat your employees. As such, a Domino's Pizza franchisee is on the hook for $371,675 in back wages after an investigation by the Labor Department unearthed some disturbing patterns in how it treated its workers. [More]
Branded Vrooming Noises Are Way Better Than An Internal Combustion Engine
I can't be the only one around here who read The Mouse and the Motorcycle by Beverly Cleary as a child and was disappointed that toy vehicles that move if you make vrooming sounds don't exist in the real world. Domino's in the Netherlands, on the other hand, has taken this concept and made it a reality. Except backwards. Which is why your pizza can now be delivered on a scooter that makes human-recorded vrooming sounds and advertises Domino's as it rolls down the street. [More]
Domino's Pizza Managers Charged With Arson In Papa John's Fire
Loyalty to your employer is one thing, but setting a competing business on fire? That's just taking it a bit too far. Two Domino's Pizza managers in Florida have been charged with arson after a Papa John's went up in flames. [More]
Science Confirms In-N-Out Burger Is The Best And McDonald's The Worst
Almost a year ago, our survey-loving siblings at Consumer Reports asked several thousand readers to rate burgers from 18 burger chains and to no one's surprise, McDonald's came in dead last. Not satisfied with merely finding the best and worst beef-on-a-bun, CR decided to go for the super-sized option, rating 53 restaurants in five categories to find which ones provide the best food, service and value to customers.

Domino's: Our Hot Wings Are Too Hot For Women, Hispanics
Domino's Pizza recently sent out some information regarding changes to its chicken wing offerings.

London, Dec 14 : Despite losing a fourth successive ODI series, Alastair Cook has vowed to remain England's one-day captain.
Cook managed to score only a single run on Tuesday as England lost to Sri Lanka by 90 runs to trail 4-2 in the seven-match series with one ODI remaining. Cook admitted that he still expects to be captain when England travel down under next month, first of all for a tri-series against Australia and India .
Cook claimed that it's tough at the moment, adding that he is a better player than he is showing at the moment, and added that he has just got to keep going, The BBC reported.

Cook insists England has moved on from controversy over KP's autobiographySubmitted by Sukhdeep Grewal on Sat, 11/15/2014 - 20:00

England fly out on Sunday for a seven-match series designed as part of their preparations for next year's World Cup in Australia and New Zealand. They do so with the uproar caused by Pietersen's book having just about died down since it was launched in a blaze of publicity last month.
Vaughan adamant Cook must quit ODI captaincy for England to win WCSubmitted by Sukhdeep Grewal on Thu, 09/04/2014 - 14:59
Johannesburg, Sep 04 - Former England skipper Michael Vaughan once again called for the sacking of current captain Alastair Cook, saying that he must be removed from the nation's ODI captaincy if they are to have any chance of winning the next year's World Cup.
England's humiliating nine-wicket ODI defeat by India at Edgbaston on Tuesday, a result that saw the world champions take an unbeatable 3-0 lead in a five-match series and win with nearly 20 overs to spare, was the final straw for Vaughan.
Veteran cricketers slams England's ODI approach as 'old fashioned'Submitted by Narinder Hans on Wed, 09/03/2014 - 19:15
London, Sep 3 : England served up one of their worst ever one day performances, facing a nine-wicket defeat against India.
As captain, Alastair Cook is the lightning rod for the abject failure that is going on around him and after overseeing an utter shambles of a performance at Edgbaston, his position is even weaker.
However England's loss to India to complete a series defeat was so bad that it is no longer a question of personnel that needs changing - it is a complete overhaul of their attitude and approach, the Mirror reported.
Cook faces one match ban after England fined for slow over-rate in ODI against IndiaSubmitted by Sukhdeep Grewal on Thu, 08/28/2014 - 23:26

Cook had been fined 20 percent of his match fee with the other England players fined 10 percent of their match fees. The skipper would face a ban if England repeats the offence in ODI cricket during the next 12 months, The BBC reported.
India beat England by 133 runs in the second one-dayer at Cardiff and lead the five-match series 1-0 after the first ODI at Bristol was abandoned without any play because of rain.
Did not expect that we will win so emphatically: CookSubmitted by Narinder Hans on Mon, 08/18/2014 - 11:39

India lost the fifth and final Test at the Oval by an innings and 244 runs, succumbing in less than three days.
"I remember saying, when we were 1-0 down, that I still thought we were going to win the series. I had a lot of confidence in the talent and amount of skill we had in the dressing-room. I didn`t think we`d win quite so emphatically, as we have done," said Cook after the match.
Alastair Cook delighted to return among runsSubmitted by Sukhdeep Grewal on Mon, 07/28/2014 - 13:50

Cook missed out on his 26th Test century by just five runs but the English skipper said even though it was frustrating he was delighted to get out of poor form.
Cook marked his return to form with a dogged 95 while youngster Gary Ballance (104 not out) hit his second successive century as England reached a comfortable 247 for two against India on the opening day.
Cook will never improve as a player, says PontingSubmitted by Sukhdeep Grewal on Tue, 07/22/2014 - 20:01
Karachi, July 22 : Former Australia captain Ricky Ponting has written the England cricket team Captain off by stating that Alastair Cook will never improve as a player for the rest of his career.
According to the Dawn, the backlash comes at a time when the England skipper is already under fire from all sides for his poor form and performance. The loss suffered by England at the hands of India at Lord's on Monday made it the 10th successive test match that the team has lost in the recent times. England cricket team's ten losses are being dubbed as their worst stint in the format in the last 21 years.

Cook said his squad had worked hard for the coming Test matches and thought that the team was prepared.

Most priests are appointed for a term of 3 or 6 years at a particular parish. Once their term is completed, do they usually move on or can they opt for another 3 or 6 years at the same parish? What is the trend?

Anyone who stepped and fetched for Law has dirty hands. Sorry kids, this guy will do nothing to rock the boat.

Well with a new bishop Dunkirk Dupa won't have anything more to compalin about.

Yes Fr.Hetero, did you ever do it with a girl?

I am surprised at your last sentence. It is my understanding that the basic mantra has always been "you have to go along,to get along" A lot of these guys do not want to rock the boat.

This is the basic mentality throught the church. If you rock the boat,you wil be sent to a psychiatrist.

Some one noted that a priest to be avoided at all costs is Father Stephen Muth of the Byzantine Catholic church. His name is on bishopaccountability. Also avoid Jason Dolan,(now in jail,) and Glenn Davidovich,who is on smokinggun.com . Another questionable person is Archimandrite Joseph (Lee) of Holy Cross Monastery in Washington,DC. Just ask any priest of the Eparchy of Passaic about him.
#48294 Jun 1, 2012
The Buffalo News printed this story on Dolan today.

My psch reports for seminary evaluated me as heterosexual. As Father Irving G. always said,"Consider yourself refuted".

Anti-Catholicism is the one remaining prejudice that is acceptable in the US. The media will continue non-stop negative articles about the Catholic Church, and continue to avoid negative coverage of other religions, Public Schools,and the Obama Administration. They give heavy positive publicity to ANY former Catholic willing to oppose the Catholic Church - think of the local Congress members, the editor of the Buffalo News, LCWR, and others.
June 8 there will be another religious freedom rally in Niagara Square.
#48298 Jun 1, 2012
May I be so rude as to inquire, who is anti-Catholic here? Please respond in one reply,with all due respect.:>)
#48299 Jun 1, 2012
Actually, I have never detected any anti-Catholicism on this blog. Some cynicism. Some alienation. But for the most part, Catholics expressing the love and concern for the church from different points of view.(There was a nasty anti-Semite,always attacking Fr. Zuffoletto in Lewiston, but he has left the blog.)
#48300 Jun 2, 2012
That person seemed to think people were anti-Catholic. I think the people are just so disillusioned with the DOB that they think they are anti-Catholic. By the way, Vatican II happened. I have been dying to say that. Perhaps if it was more accepted,we would not be having all these difficulties.
#48301 Jun 2, 2012
The following is a quote from the Diocese of Portland, Maine:
"Bishop Malone will be installed as the 14th Bishop of Buffalo on August 10, 2012, 2 p.m. at St. Joseph Cathedral in downtown Buffalo. With his appointment as Bishop of Buffalo, he is now administrator and no longer bishop of the Diocese of Portland."
So, I gather that means that Bishop Malone, although not yet Bishop of Buffalo, has been named administrator of the Diocese of Buffalo, effective immediately, unseating Bishop Kmiek as of last Tuesday.
It is odd, then, that the DOB website said the following:
"On Wednesday, May 30, Bishop Malone will return to Maine."
I wonder if that wasn't phrased in that way to fool some people into thinking that Kmiek was still active Bishop? He is not. He has been replaced by an administrator who will make all the decisions instead of Kmiek.
#48302 Jun 2, 2012
Malone is administrator of Portland and Kmiek is now administrator of DOB....neither one is Bishop of either diocese.
#48303 Jun 2, 2012
Interesting! Maybe we should cross our fingers and pray that no one in the DOB is happy about the new Bis. Be still my heart!
#48304 Jun 3, 2012
Many who fully support Vatican II also oppose anti-Catholicism. Vatican II opposed many things that are politically correct, including contraception, divorce/remarriage, and many other things considered "rights" now. It also affirmed many things the secular society opposes, including dogmas, the male priesthood,spiritual authority of the pope and bishop, the supernatural characteristics of the sacraments, and many other things. The secular society, for instance the Obama administration, the media, and higher education, opposes 90% of what Vatican II taught.(BTW, the most unpopular part of Vatican II is Dogmas). Thus, Vatican II supporters respond, lovingly, to anti-Catholicism.
#48305 Jun 3, 2012
The dominant view today - what you get in public schools or the Buffalo News - is that religion is "good". By religion they mean social progress: striving to make everyone equal,build community,anything to make you feel "inspired"; urging every person to believe whatever doctrine makes sense to them, eliminating any kind of authority figures who try to impose absolutes of doctrine and morality. Vatican II on the other hand relies heavily on the Magisterium. Everything points towards God. Many people applaud Vatican II, but their views are molded not by the actual Vatican II but by UB, by TV, or by religious writers and teachers who themselves were shaped by the secular trends. Go back and read the documents.

MOSCOW, Oct 22 (Reuters) - Two female members of Russian punk group Pussy Riot convicted of protesting against President Vladimir Putin in a cathedral have been sent to prisons far from Moscow despite requesting to serve out their terms in the capital, a lawyer said on Monday.
Maria Alyokhina, 24, and Nadezhda Tolokonnikova, 22, were convicted of "hooliganism motivated by religious hatred" in August and sentenced to two years in jail, a punishment that many in the West said was too harsh.
Their stunt - bursting into Moscow's main Russian Orthodox Cathedral to urge the Virgin Mary to rid Russia of Putin - infuriated the church and many Russians. But Kremlin critics said their trial was part of a crackdown on dissent orchestrated by Putin, who began a six-year presidential term in May.
The two women lost their appeals on Oct. 10.
The women's lawyers said they had tried to argue that they should be allowed to remain in jail in Moscow, saying it would have permitted them to be closer to their small children. They had also cited health and safety concerns at far-flung penal colonies.
"They have been sent away," one of their lawyers, Mark Feigin, told Reuters, saying he did not know where the women had been dispatched. By law, relatives must be informed once a convict arrives at a prison, but the trip can take days.
One women's prison is about 100 km (60 miles) from Moscow, but most are much further away.
Former collaborators in a street-art group said on Twitter that Tolokonnikova had been sent to Mordovia, about 500 km (300 miles) east of Moscow, and Alyokhina to the Perm region, near the Ural Mountains about 1,100 km (700 miles) east of the capital. That was not confirmed.
The duo had been held in a Moscow detention centre since their arrests in March. Western governments and musicians like Madonna had said their sentences were disproportionate, but Putin voiced support for the sentences, saying the state must protect the feelings of the faithful.
The dominant Russian Orthodox Church has cast their protest as part of a concerted attack against the church and Russian traditions.
A third convicted member of Pussy Riot, Yekaterina Samutsevich, was released on appeal when a court suspended her sentence after her lawyer argued that she had been pulled away from the cathedral's altar before the protest song began.

Zimbabwe is making its comeback after its political woes and visitors to this country will enjoy the freedom of wildlife viewing without the tourists. Options include canoeing safaris, walking and horse or elephant-back, led by some of Africa's most experienced guides (the Zimbabwe guiding license takes four years and is the most comprehensive in operation).
We can't mention Zimbabwe without in the same breath mentioning the mighty Zambezi river - giving life to millions on its journey - and the Victoria Falls, one of the 7 Natural Wonders of the World.

But when the court oversteps, fixing the problem is practically impossible.
fixing our long-term budget problems requires work in three basic areas.
For many Egyptian activists and reformers—the idea of fixing the internal culture of the Interior Ministry starts at the top.
Joan looked down at her young fan, fixing those extraordinary big eyes of hers on the girl, and smiled.
It should be in the direction of avoiding yet another major international problem that detracts from fixing the American economy.
Then fixing his spy-glass in his eye, he looked in the same direction; but either saw or affected to see nothing.
Kellogg leaned across the table, fixing him with an enthusiastic eye.
Dr. Bird dropped the films in a fixing tank and straightened up.
"I've never been in a studio before," said Betty, fixing fresh paper.
It seems to me, therefore, highly probable that in fixing the site of Calvary the Empress was rightly guided.
late 14c., "set (one's eyes or mind) on something," probably from Old French *fixer, from fixe "fixed," from Latin fixus "fixed, fast, immovable, established, settled," past participle of figere "to fix, fasten," from PIE root *dhigw- "to stick, to fix."
Sense of "fasten, attach" is c.1400; that of "settle, assign" is pre-1500 and evolved into "adjust, arrange" (1660s), then "repair" (1737). Sense of "tamper with" (a fight, a jury, etc.) is 1790. As euphemism for "castrate a pet" it dates from 1930. Related: Fixed; fixedly (1590s); fixing.
"position from which it is difficult to move," 1809, American English, from fix (v.). Meaning "dose of narcotic" is from 1934, shortened from fix-up (1867, originally in reference to liquor).

Pro-Lifers, you do realize this, right?
I intentionally took this quote directly from a PL site because I have heard PLers use this statistic as justification for being PL:
When DS is confirmed, abortion is offered. Increasingly, it is chosen. In England and some major U.S. cities, more than 90 percent of DS fetuses are aborted.
If 90% of in utero Down Syndrome diagnoses result in abortion, there is NO WAY that it is only PC women having these abortions. The only possible way that this could be true is if, as a general rule, PLers skip all prenatal testing, resulting in only PCers getting these diagnoses which lead to abortion. There is no way this is true.
According to the Gallup pole that is making its rounds all over BBC, for the first time, a majority of Americans are PL. However, this "study" is extremely flawed and I don't even see how the results support this.
a majority of people say they are both pro-life and that abortion should be legal
That is not Pro-Life, at least by BBC standards. Can a PLers please explain to me how this 1,000 person phone interview poll supports the idea that a majority of Americans are PL?
I think people forget that it's quite easy, and likely quite common, to not like abortion yet still be PC. Nobody likes abortion. PCers just think that it is sometimes necessary.
The reason this bothers me so much is that PLers have abortions too!!! It seems as though this phenomenon is occuring whereas people say they are PL, but nonetheless, they (or their daughters, wives, etc) are having abortions.
1 in 3 American women have an abortion in their lifetime. In order for it to be only (or even mostly) PCers having abortions, that would mean that a majority of PCers are physically having abortions. I dare someone to prove that it is only PCers that have abortions.
I don't see how this is anything but hypocritical.

WHISTLER, British Columbia -- The clock is ticking on the Vancouver Olympics. The closing ceremonies are just six days away, and the anxiety to produce results that reflect the pre-Games optimism is reaching a pressure point.
After losing to the United States and now facing the prospect of having to beat Germany and then Russia just to even sniff a medal, it's Sydney or the bush for Team Canada hockey and the Austrian and Swiss ski teams.
Such a wonderful phrase, which is of Australian origin meaning "success or nothing" and was popularized by Charles Schulz in "Peanuts," but so obscure that even my Aussie cab driver had no idea what it meant.
"Charlie Brown?" he said, quizzically. "You mean that cartoon fellow?"
The smothering pressure lessened Tuesday for the beleaguered Swiss, when Carlo Janka won the gold medal in the giant slalom. The Swiss, always tough in skiing, have sputtered in Vancouver, winning but two medals, a gold and a bronze for the men while the women remain shut out. Janka, who ranked first in the World Cup rankings in giant slalom, won both legs of the competition and was not threatened on the day.
The pressure, however, intensified Tuesday for the Austrians, who entered the Games as favorites after winning fourteen medals in the Alpine discipline in 2006 -- but have so far not won a medal in the men's discipline. The women have maintained the honor of the country, with Andrea Fischbacher winning gold in the super-G and Elisabeth Goergl winning bronze in the downhill.
The men's doughnut stings even more when Austria placed three of the top six skiers after the first run, including a second-place run from Romed Baumann. Baumann fell back after the second, and Austria finished 4-5-6 in the final standings, beaten out for the final two spots on the podium by a surging Team Norway. Kjetil Jansrud, 11th after the first run, won silver, and -- with a determined and spirited second run that saw him break fast, struggle, gain time and then lose time at the end -- Aksel Lund Svindal won his third medal of the games with a bronze.
The Austrian panic had begun. With one Alpine event remaining for the men -- the slalom Saturday -- one Austrian journalist summed up the disappointing results of the Austrian ski team thusly, "Come not home if you don't win a medal."
Sydney or the bush indeed
Meanwhile, the Americans cruised down the Whistler Creekside slopes with no team pressure in Tuesday's men's giant slalom but plenty of individual expectations. With each successive run, the American team potentially adds gravy to a wildly successful seven-medal performance, which explained why the earth didn't shake when Bode Miller, tired and erratic on his first run, wiped out after missing a right-side gate and was finished for the day or when Ted Ligety, a strong medal contender, finished ninth. The U.S. ski team has already placed its stamp on the games.
After Miller was out, he skied to the side anonymously and disappeared for the day.
Miller already has gold, silver and bronze medals from this tournament, and a strong run would have put him in contention to be the first man to win four Alpine medals in a single Olympic games, but he never quite had it together on his first run. He nearly totaled his run after clipping a gate early on and never righted himself. He later said that he employed an aggressive style that put him in contention for more medals, but the downside of his strategy is a higher risk for trouble.
"I'm taking more risk than everyone else. That's partly why I'm able to get medals. It looks easy when you make it," Miller told The Associated Press. "When you crash like today, it's like, 'Oh, huh?' I did a good job today, too," Miller continued. "I was right there. I was right on the edge."
For Ligety, giant slalom was perhaps his best, last shot at a medal -- he is not particularly strong in the slalom -- but both runs carried their share of disappointment.
After finishing six-tenths behind the leader, Ligety -- currently top-ranked in the world in giant slalom and in the top three the past three years running-- knew he needed a blistering second. He broke out of the gate fast, but, while trying to maintain speed, lost his technique, flying through the air around a couple of turns, which cost him time.
"A lot of guys really raised their level of skiing, with that, it was hard to stay close, but I was skiing well but I just made too many mistakes," Ligety said. "I knew I had to come down and really push the limits and be clean the whole way down and have a good run because I was six-tenths back and that wasn't really insurmountable. It wasn't time you didn't think you could make up. I definitely didn't feel defeated between runs, but I just didn't ski the way I wanted to with those mistakes."

'Argo's' Bryan Cranston on CIA Secrets, Ben Affleck's Directing Style (Q&A)
'Argo's' Bryan Cranston on CIA Secrets, Ben Affleck's Directing Style (Q&A)
Bryan Cranston may be known for playing the increasingly audacious science-teacher-turned-meth-maker on AMC's hit show Breaking Bad. But Cranston shifts into a very different role for the Ben Affleck-helmed political thriller, Argo, which has already been garnering plenty of buzz before its theatrical release on Friday.
Cranston plays CIA officer Jack O' Donnell, who is Tony Mendez's (Affleck) boss. Based on the real events of the Iran hostage crisis of 1979-81, Affleck's suspenseful film follows Mendez, an expert extricator, as he attempts to rescue six U.S. embassy workers who had escaped the compound where 52 other Americans were being held hostage.
PHOTOS: Ben Affleck at 40: Portraits of 'Argo's' Leading Man, Director and Oscar-Baiting Auteur
Cranston talks to The Hollywood Reporter about his memories from the real events back in 1979, what he likes about Affleck's directing style (hint: whips) and his plans post-Breaking Bad.
The Hollywood Reporter: What do you remember about the actual events of the Iran hostage crisis?
Bryan Cranston: That was a very bleak time, America was suffering. Nightline was created for this purpose -- to give a daily recap of any progress that may have been made in trying to release the hostage. And then, when six Americans were released and it was like, "Oh, my God, this is amazing." That's really all we heard. For a couple of days it was on the front page and then rightfully so, it loses interest because the focus goes back to the 50 blindfolded Americans who are still being held and hoping that through some diplomacy and outside pressure and embargoes and things that were being tested and tried they would be release, but they were held for a total of 444 days.
THR: Is your character based on Mendez's real boss at the time?
Cranston: It's an amalgam of characters that were at the CIA at the time, so he's a composite character. Instead of seeing several different pictures of people and voices at the CIA, we needed to hone it down to one so the audience can keep a clear idea, when you see me, you know, "He's the CIA guy," so you're not left wondering, "Wait, is that the guy from the White House or which one is that guy?" It was important to help the audience just focus on the actual plot.
STORY: Inside the 'Argo' L.A. Premiere: Actors Downplay Awards Talk as Ben Affleck Addresses Canada Flap
THR: You actually filmed at the CIA headquarters. Had you ever been there before?
Cranston: Oh no, you have to have some pretty high clearance to be able to go through and take a tour. They did a background check on me when I went to talk to them.
THR: What was that experience like?
Cranston: I was able to talk to several different CIA officers of different ages and I was very interested in finding out what effect it has on their personal life. Can you imagine if you went home to your boyfriend or husband or wife and you could not say a word of what you did that day or any day for your entire career. It's fascinating and yet you think, how would couples be able to manage that? And a lot of them don't. There's a high divorce rate and they date within themselves, they marry within themselves. I talked to one officer who's married to a CIA officer, their daughter was a CIA officer -- it's the family business.

Santa Cruz County's award-winning Probation Department improves the community by helping families and individuals restore their lives and look forward to a brighter future.
Regarded as a nationwide leader, the department promotes public safety and productive lives at all phases of the criminal justice system by focusing on evidence-based practices, custody alternatives and the humane treatment of youth and adult clients.
The Department operates as an arm of the Court, and is responsible for services required by the Adult and Juvenile Courts, including pretrial assessments, probation, post-trial alternative custody and juvenile detention. The department is divided into three divisions: Adult, Juvenile, and Institutions (Juvenile Hall).
In 1999, we became a model site for the Annie E. Casey Foundation's Juvenile Detention Alternatives Initiative, which has since been replicated nationwide, saving millions and resulting in dramatic reductions to unnecessary youth incarceration. We have also been a leader in criminal justice reforms following AB 109, and in 2013 were chosen as one of three pilot sites nationally to roll out a Laura and John Arnold Foundation risk-assessment tool for those entering the criminal justice system.
We also sponsor the nationally recognized Azteca Youth Soccer Program, which brings together at-risk youth, often from competing gang affiliations, in a productive environment that encourages understanding through teamwork.
Our department acknowledges the important role which crime victims play in the justice system, and hopes to work with crime victims and offenders to move towards helping to repair the harm caused by crime. Where appropriate, our voluntary Victim/Offender Dialogue Program offers a chance for offenders and victims to come up with a mutually agreeable plan that addresses the harm caused by the crime.
Our Vision is to be a leader and an active partner with the community in promoting safety and in building productive futures through Integrity, Excellence, Compassion, Creativity, Respect, and Fairness.
We also promote the following four principles:

Treat your girl how you would want your dad to treat your mom.
Yesterday was all about Obama, today is all about the flood and GE's Fire. This is times when I hate social media.
I'm a worthless asshole who deserves to die young.
Most of the music I listen to is straight edge music. But I am the furthest from it.
Really confused why there are 12 fucking kids in my court screaming their fucking heads off. Nigga I'm trying to sleep, shut the fuck up.
@kaewhy270 because of your reference I will not be unfollowing you.
He hands me this midterm that took me two hours to do, I'm going to throw that shit away, put my foot up his ass, and walk out.
Hotel party at the galt house for my birthday. Hmmmmm I think so.
