Thread: A Prayer
12/17/2012 7:46am, #415
That said, regarding the US legal definition of a "militia":
US v. Miller (1939) -
The signification attributed to the term Militia appears from the debates in the Convention, the history and legislation of Colonies and States, and the writings of approved commentators. These show plainly enough that the Militia comprised all males physically capable of acting in concert for the common defense. "A body of citizens enrolled for military discipline." And further, that ordinarily when called for service these men were expected to appear bearing arms supplied by themselves and of the kind in common use at the time.
Lots of Gun Control advocates like to emphasize the "well-regulated militia" language in the 2nd Amendment. The resulting argument is that the 2nd Amendment does not guarantee individuals the right to keep and bear arms, but rather that the amendment guarantees some sort of "collective right" in the militia. The counter to this argument is that the Bill of Rights, the first ten amendments and specifically the first eight or nine, was intended to protect the rights of individuals -- such as freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom from unreasonable search and seizure, rights to due process, trial by jury, etc...
The context of the Second Amendment would strongly suggest that the right to bear arms is another individual right. And, it could be argued, that as the right is linked to the ability of individuals to form a militia, the intent seems to be that citizens have access to military-type weapons! The Second Amendment says nothing about guaranteeing the right to own weapons sufficient to hunt.
The AR-type rifle used in this massacre is the most popular rifle in the US right now. (And BTW, it is used for hunting in some places.) Thousands of them are owned privately. How many of them were used for evil on Friday? I don't have numbers, but I suspect it was less than 1%. Now, compare that to the number of rifles that were used responsibly that day. Yes, some gun owners are... quirky; but they are a generally a responsible bunch.
I don't have a good answer to the problem of violence in America. But I do know the answer isn't to blame inanimate objects. A gun lying on a table could sit there for a hundred years, it will do nothing until somone picks it up and pulls the trigger. The problem is with the black hearts of some men, and our lack of care of the disturbed and despairing. And yes, I think the 24-hour news cycle only glorifies these tragedies. People intent on doing harm will find a way to do it.

Why not have an armed guard in the entrance of the school that checks people? Or better yet, make it harder for people to own a gun. Make the punishments for misplacing a gun harsh enough to make people think 10 times before buying one etc.
12/17/2012 8:31am, #462
It might be interesting to know the statistics on the use of legally-owned machine guns in the commission of a crime.
Of course, your reductio ad absurdum argument should properly include a nuclear warhead. Certainly there comes a point when the potential benefit of a privately owned weapon is outweighed by the public danger of misuse. I, personally, am willing to place nuclear devices in this category; but not small arms. I am not ignoring the "well-regulated" language in the Second Amendment.

Look at how many more kids die from obesity than gun violence. I would post the numbers myself but they are so crazy I don't think you'd believe them
12/17/2012 8:40am, #486
I posted all the US murder stats in the armory, you know.
9300 murders with guns in 2010 in the US. That is half as many as dead by STD's.
Firearms murder is .39% of preventable death in the US. "gun control" is a red herring. The US murder rate is 85th in the world (Smack in the middle) but our suicide rate is 11th. 90 people committed suicide in the US on Friday, but only one made the news.
The problem is mental health, not guns.And lo, Kano looked down upon the field and saw the multitudes. Amongst them were the disciples of Uesheba who were greatly vexed at his sayings. And Kano spake: "Do not be concerned with the mote in thy neighbor's eye, when verily thou hast a massive stick in thine ass".

As for your point about the TSA, I think that's a weak example of a government overstepping their authority. I fly quite a bit. I find the post 9-11 security measures to be effective and fairly unobtrusive. You have the occasional viral video of some little kid getting frisked but that type of **** is uncommon, especially considering the number of daily air travelers in the U.S. I have no problem taking my shoes off and sending my bags through an x-ray.
The threat now is no different than it was pre 9-11. The difference is that we understand the threat better now and are more prepared to deal with it. It's true there is a fine line between reasonable security and intrusion. We have to continuously have those discussions. We can't afford to stick our heads in the sand and ignore the threat.
Now it's time for the discussion about school security. Again, the threat hasn't changed but our understanding of the threat has. Honestly, I'm surprised it hasn't happened before now. It's been on my mind since 9-11 because what's more terrifying than the fear of your children being murdered?
The lazy way out on this issue is to start swinging the ban hammer. The law didn't fail here. How many dozens of laws did this guy break before he even pulled the trigger? He wasn't even old enough to by a handgun. The hard way here is to look for effective ways of preventing this in the future instead of kneejerking and going nuts with gun control. More gun laws will just leave a bunch of smug politicians jerking themselves off about what they did to make kids safer while the kids will remain sitting ducks at school.

For all you out there who are reading this, I bid you hello. Okay, so I'm putting this out here for all you people who are, like me, completely fangirling (or fanboying, I am not one to judge) over Kirsten Vangsness. Honestly, everything she does is spectacular. She does theater, she writes, and she is Penelope on Criminal Minds. Obviously, there is way more things that she does (PRETTY THE SERIES, Japan Calls, True Beauty, ect..) but lets face it, there is too many to name. She is my hero and I just want all you Kirsten-crazed people to know that you are not alone in your obsession.
Do you find this valuable?

Hey Kirsten fans!
Just wanted to let you know about Japan Calls, a celebrity charity auction to help efforts over in Japan. The basic idea is that people bid on receiving personalized voice recordings from their favorite entertainers, and all the proceeds go to Japan. And Kirsten is just one of the many names involved. So check it out at voicesforjapan.com and bid to help and hear from Kirsten herself!

Double decker bus tour on course to explore the history of Sherwood Forest
Posted: August 06, 2014|
RED double decker buses will soon be seen darting through the trees of Sherwood Forest as part of a new tourist attraction.
The Sherwood Forest Bus Tour will take passengers on a history tour exploring the Forest's roots which once spread across the county.
Among the visits on the tour, taken aboard a red RouteMaster London bus, will include the Sherwood Forest National Nature Reserve and 12th century royal palace and hunting lodge King John's Palace.
The bus, dating back to 1967, has been provided by Nottingham-based vehicle hire firm Blackmore Commercials.
Related content
The tour is the brainchild of Nottinghamshire based archaeological company Mercian Archaeological Services who have been working on digs across Sherwood Forest sites.
Director Andy Gaunt said he hoped the new tour would help bring the Forest's history back to life.
He said: "A lot of people just think Sherwood Forest is the Major Oak - we've lost the historical connections.
"Sherwood Forest went from the River Trent to Bilby - it was huge.
"We want to celebrate the whole of it and that's about linking some of the sites back."
The tour will also along the way pass by sites of interest that had once been part of the Forest as well.
These include ancient Viking meeting places, bronze age burial mounds and Saxon battle sites which Mercian have worked excavating as well.
The first tour takes place on Thursday, August 21 at 9.30am setting off from Wellington Circus, next to the Nottingham Playhouse. It costs £12.50 and arrives back in the city at 5pm.
Should the first tour prove to be a success, the organisers hope to add more dates through the year.
Mercian director Sean Crossley added: "It's about getting people to realise what's on their doorstep whether they be visitors or locals.
"It's a case of trying to further the whole picture of the history and heritage of Sherwood Forest."

'Black Panther' Will Not Be Directed by Ava DuVernay, Director Confirms
Well this is kind of a bummer. It's been reported for some time that Marvel was considering Selma director Ava DuVernay to helm their Black Panther film (other reports suggested they were also considering her for Captain Marvel). DuVernay herself recently added to the speculation with a tweet referencing the superhero, while Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige confirmed that he had met with the director and would have an announcement by the end of July.

"StarCraft II is a game that's near flawless in every aspect. Any real-time strategy gamer who doesn't pick it up should be flagged as committing a serious crime. The campaign's story rounds up nicely and players will eagerly be awaiting the follow up campaigns for Protoss and Zerg as soon as they finish them. The multiplayer and custom maps just complete the package and if StarCraft is anything to go by, gamers will be playing this for many a year to come." 10/10

PSCS5 and Canon G1X RAW
Mar 13, 2012
I was told on another forum that ACR update now supports the Canon G1X RAW. I just updated to PSCS5 12.0.4 and tried to open a RAW file and the message said the image was made by a camera not supported by CS5 (or similar wording). So did I miss something ?

The Secretary of the Interior held a news conference to announce the release of a plan by the Department of the Interior's Endangered Species Committee concerning foresting in the Pacific Northwest. The committee, chaired by Secretary Lujan and meeting for the third time in its existence, voted to allow greater deforestation of the Pacific Northwest and further reduction of the natural habitat of the spotted owl, an endangered species. Secretary Lujan called the proposal the "preservation plan," and claimed politics had nothing to do with its formulation. close

With just below three-fifths of Private Chefs in the United States reporting more than 10 years of experience, the field is heavily weighted toward experienced professionals. Average pay for Private Chefs is $64K per year and can range from $30K on the lower end to $122K per year near the higher end. Career length and the particular city each impact pay for this group, with the former having the largest influence. Most Private Chefs report high levels of job satisfaction. Medical benefits are awarded to close to a third, and nearly one in five earn dental coverage.

Copy and paste this HTML:
Private chefs are also known as personal chefs. They can work in households, on yachts, or in corporate offices. They prepare meals in accordance with their employer's needs. They must have past work experience as a chef or a cook. Some employers may prefer private chefs that graduated from a culinary academy. Some chefs may be required to work for a family as a live-in employee, or they may be able to leave at the end of their shifts.Read More...
It is popular nowadays for private chefs to come to a household every other week, twice a month, etc. In this situation, they would cook a large number of meals, and then the employers would reheat the food at their convenience. Private chefs who do not work full-time usually work freelance or work as subcontractors.
They must be familiar with all kinds of food ingredients. They must be familiar with certain types of food that are requested by employers. Personal chefs must be flexible and follow their employer wishes. Some employers may be vegetarian or vegan; they may also prefer organic food only. Personal chefs may report to the homeowners or to their employer's household chief of staff, depending on the type of households that they are working for. Private chefs must be able to work in a team environment. They may work with butlers, maid, drivers, or gardeners.
Median of all compensation (including tips, bonus, and overtime) by years of experience.
Experience and pay tend to be weakly linked for Private Chefs — those with more experience do not necessarily bring in higher earnings. Salaries for the relatively untried average out to around $48K, but survey participants with five to 10 years of experience earn a significantly higher median of $59K. Private Chefs who work for 10 to 20 years in their occupation tend to earn about $65K. People who have worked for more than 20 years report a median income of $68K, which is barely higher than the median for folks with 10 to 20 years of experience.

They say size doesn't matter, but when it comes to vegetables, China is looking to go big. Really big.
Last week, a delegation of Chinese politicians and business leaders flew to the U.K. in a bid to persuade celebrity vegetable grower Clive Bevan to back their cause. The 57-year-old, who counts Prince Charles as one of his fans, has won numerous awards for his gigantic produce.
"I explained that I only grow organic and that the secret to growing giant vegetables is the right seed, the right soil, the right temperature, hours of work and a very big bank balance," he continued. "It can cost thousands to set up the right environment on a giant scale and that's something I haven't got. Instead, I produce the seeds that someone with the money, time and skills can cultivate into giants."
According to Bevan, after the tour, the delegates formally offered him a job to come to China and teach farmers there his techniques. A much longer visit is planned for next year, where Bevan will install a giant vegetable zone in a soon-to-be-created "eco area".
"There's no reason why, in a couple of years, they can't be producing really big giants and a year or two later winning world titles," he added.
It's an interesting move by the Chinese — who I'm sure are more interested in maximizing food resources than winning contests. Then again, super-large veggies aren't generally very tasty; unless Bevan has stumbled upon something I've yet to experience.
Either way, expect FOX News to shortly expose this for what it truly is: A move by communist China to destroy us all with oversized produce. Oh yeah, and Michelle Obama's organic White House garden is in on the whole thing.

Pennsylvania 'bank' is a depository for apologies from inmate to victim
A program that enables Pennsylvania inmates to apologize in writing to victims of their crimes has more letters than people signed up to receive them.
State officials hope to change that by publicizing the Inmate Apology Bank, an initiative of the Department of Corrections and the Office of Victim Advocate.
"It really benefits both victims and offenders," said Carol Lavery, who has headed the state victim advocacy office for seven years. "Without this program, there is no way an apology could be made. It is a violation for an offender to send an apology letter directly to a victim. That is not allowed, even when one is wanted."
Since the program started in April 2012, 537 inmates submitted apology letters and 96 crime victims signed up. Officials delivered 26 letters.
Pennsylvania has 51,000 inmates in 26 prison facilities.
Similar programs exist in Minnesota, Vermont, Nebraska and Wisconsin.
"More and more (states) are adding them as time goes on," Lavery said.
Pennsylvania's program is voluntary for participants. Neither inmate nor victim is told whether the other desires to write or receive a letter before signing up, Lavery said.
"By registering, the victims are expressing interest in receiving a letter," Corrections Secretary John Wetzel said.
Officials screen all letters to ensure they are appropriate and apologetic, Lavery said. The communication is one-way, from inmate to victim, with no direct contact. The Office of Victim Advocate has other programs that can help facilitate such dialogue.
Contact with an inmate isn't something every victim wants, Lavery acknowledged.
"There are a lot of victims out there who don't want to know this person even exists, much less receive a letter," she said.
For those who do, the apology letter program can be beneficial, said Erin Siffing, a victim-offender dialogue specialist with the Center for Victims in East Liberty.
"I think it's a wonderful program," Siffing said. "It can be a really positive and meaningful thing for victims who want to receive it."
The Center for Victims operates a similar program for offenders in Allegheny County Juvenile Court and keeps a list of victims who are open to receiving apologies or other dialogue, Siffing said.
"It can be healing for victims and for offenders," she said.
The Inmate Apology Bank is part of restorative justice designed to help victims and inmates, Lavery said. Offenders have to consider their actions and make efforts toward taking accountability.
Crime victims and their families can learn more about the program by calling 800-322-4472 or visiting www.ova.state.pa.us.
"We first have to have a victim tell us they want to receive it before we reach out," Lavery said. "I'm hopeful that more and more victims will come forward."

text: I'm attempting to write the general form of a circle where I'm given three points, not necessary equally distant from each other: (0,0), (0,8), (6,0) I need to write the equation of the circle in general form. I've managed to get pretty close to what the answer in the book states, but I'm still off. Since these points are not equally distant from each other, you can't use the midpoint formula (x1+x2)/2, (y1+y2)/2 to get the center of the circle. Is there another method I should be using to find the center so I can determine the radius, and then find the general form for the circle? I'm not looking for the answer, I know what the book says in the answer key, I'm just curious as to what I'm missing, then I can try to take it from there. Thanks!

MADISONVILLE, Ky. (9/5/13) – The City of Madisonville will undergo a city-wide mosquito treatment during the evening hours Monday, Sept 9th and continuing into the morning hours Tuesday, Sept 10th, weather permitting.
While the spraying does not pose a risk to residents, those who are sensitive to odors or have chemical sensitivities may want to keep their windows and doors closed during the treatment.
The services provided to the city are based on an integrated pest management approach, including larval control, biological control and the strategic use of U.S. Environmental Protection Agency labeled and registered pesticides for adult control.
Homeowners can also help control mosquitoes by eliminating potential breeding grounds around their home. Empty or remove outdoor receptacles that hold water. Clean gutters, pools, basins, vases, and birdbaths frequently.
Questions or concerns may be directed to city hall at 270-824-2100.

text: Highlights from the N.A.G.L.R.E.P. Conference 16. November 2015 SharePost (0) By Doug MayberryI recently attended the national LGBT Real Estate Conference. The attendees included many of the top minds in luxury real estate. I was delighted to be among the agents with the most sales in the United States. It was fascinating. I loved learning new techniques from other forward thinking real estate professionals.One of the highlights of the event was a presentation by the Jill's. The duo are said to have the top sales among Realtors in the entire country. They move several hundred million dollars of real estate every year. I enjoyed speaking with them and exchanging methodology. They recently enjoyed a visit to Key West with their team. It's refreshing to hear outsiders' perspectives about Key West, and it reminds me of just how amazing it is here. The ending speech at the conference was given passionately by Jim Obergefell. Jim was the lead plaintiff in the Supreme Court case Obergefell v. Hodges. This is the court case that brought about the legalization of gay marriage in the United States. Jim spoke about losing his husband, John, to ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease). He had flown his partner in a medical aircraft to Maryland, just so they could get married before John died. At the time, gay marriage was allowed in Maryland but back home in Ohio it was not. So when they got home, their marriage was not recognized by Ohio. Jim's partner died shortly thereafter, and Jim took the case all the way to the Supreme Court. The room was in tears by the end of the speech. It felt incredible to meet this man in person. Click this link to learn more about this society changing ruling. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obergefell_v._Hodges. Jim has now turned his attention toward securing protection for LGBT citizens in employment and housing.

I purchased this product about 3 months ago and since then have found so many different uses for it. As most people have already mentioned its really great for dry hands/feet, chapped lips, and even eczema. Even though it is expensive, it lasts a long time IF you are using it the way it should be used- and that is sparingly. It is not as effective is you are putting more product than you need to with the thought that the more the better/faster it will heal up you dry skin. This is definitely not true, and a little bit of product goes a long way. The only reason I rated it 4/5 is because it is quite oily and on some occasions I have broken out- but only a smalllll amount.
**TIP: If you are into the natural look- I like to apply foundation, and then put some blush on my cheek bones, and then add a very small amount onto my finger and gently dab it on top of where I've already applied my blush. I think it gives a really great 'dewy' natural look and keeps your face looking clean!

This is a no frills ointment. I use it for a variety of things on all parts of my body. Dry chapped hands, cracked lips, eczema patches, dry elbows, irritated skin (the only thing that will not irritate it but still protect it while keeping it moisturized.)
I love this stuff. You can really do whatever you want with it. I recently used this on a burn mark (from curling iron) and it soothed my skin so much! I left a pretty thick and just slept. Next morning my face didn't hurt anymore!
Truly an all around beauty product for maintenance and care. Highly recommend!

I've been hearing about this product so much over the years, i just had to get it!
When someone described it as vaseline on steroids, they were quite right. I've had it for a few days and already, i've found several uses for it. I have really terrible eczema that flares up all the time, and right now my hands and literally flaking because they are so dry and itchy. I've tried all the creams but none of them seemed to work - i'd have to wake up several times during the night to moisterise! But i put on a layer of this on my hands before sleeping and they were much softer and hydrated by the time i woke up. However, i used this on my neck (which is also prone to really bad bouts of eczema) and it got really itchy and red/bumpy so be careful about where you put it!
I also use this on my lips and on dry patches on my face (no problems with breakouts or pore blockage). While the cream/gel/ointment is quite thick, its not disgustingly so if you use it sparingly.
Another thing that seems to put a lot of people off is the scent. It smells a bit medicinal - a little bit herbal and a bit like the smell of band aids. It doesn't faze me too much though and the scent does fade eventually.
I really think this is worth getting if you feel like vaseline doesn't do the job for you - this is more intensive, soaks into the skin a lot better and the results are much faster!
EDIT: bumped this up to 5 lippies because it healed my face after using a particular product that broke me out into a dry, painful red rash on my face. After a shower when my face was still damp, I warmed a pea sized amount in my hands then pressed it into my skin. Did the for 2-3 nights then my face was back to normal! Hooray!

I wrote a review for the original one (under a wrong topic, but whatever) and the bottom line was- I loved it.
However, what's up with the fragrance free one? It just isn't as sticky and thus effective. I don't like it! It doesn't work for anything- chapped lips, nicks on skin. It just sits on the skin for like a minute or two and then I feel the need to reapply which was not the case with the original one.
I regret buying the fragrance free version.
Edit- the rating is for the original version of the cream.

For reference: I have combo/dry sensitive clog prone skin.
I'm constantly on the hunt for basic rich moisturizing treatments that don't clog my skin. After finishing embryolisse, I finally gave in and have been trying eight hour cream the past month.
The product comes in a tube, and is the texture of soft thick honey translucent vaseline (it's 58% petrolatum). The herbal scent reminds me of weleda everon balm, not a hint of sweet or floral just slightly bitter smelling medicinal but fades relatively soon after application. I use around my eyes and on lips overnight and wake up with moisturized skin. I'll finish the tube, I'm not sure I'll repurchase because I've found other similar products more effective. For lanolin based products: lanisoh (unscented, thicker balm texture) and bag balm (best bang for buck, slight lanolin scent, similar texture) work as well if not better and I can always mix in a bit of my standby, vaseline. I don't find the extra ingredients noticeably effective enough to justify repurchasing (Mineral Oil, Tocopherol, BHT, Salicylic Acid, Ricinus Communis Seed Oil (Castor), Vegetable Oil, Zea Mays Oil (Corn)... etc. (preservatives)

Omg i love this!!!! The only thing better than this that I've found is Lansinoh Lanolin (which is very thick and doesn't contain salicylic acid, so it clogs pores sometimes--but it is the best treatment for dry lips & hands). Great for my face and hands!! I like this as a mask- this on top of a damp face that has serum of choice and a cheap moisturizer like Nivea. Leave on for 20 min or a couple of hours. Then wipe off, cleanse, and apply usual face cream (Guinot for me). It really works as a mask like this. Absorbs better than Aquaphor or Vaseline, moisturizes, softens, lovely texture, loooooove it. Like I said, good treatment product, not necessarily a moisturizer on its own. I have the unscented one, it smells nasty--like rancid cooking oil.

I've known about this for years and never tried it. So many women have used this since 1930 and keep it in their kit or makeup bag. There aren't many products that hold the test of time these days, but this does. It now comes in unscented, but I actually like the retro scent. It makes me feel good to know it's the same thing that women have used for generations. Like the glamorous old Hollywood ladies, or your grandma! I tend to have dry to very dry skin, and this has been a lifesaver. You can use it anywhere you have bumps, bruises, scrapes, or dry patches. It's a lip balm and also a cuticle balm. It works by soothing and also protecting the top layer of skin. Practically a miracle worker in a tube. Everyone and their mother should try it at least once. P.S. It's $7.99- $10 at TJ Maxx.

Extremely expensive product! I used it for dry lips, its a really intensive moisturiser I used it on my cracked heels and it worked amazingly! I wouldn't use it on my face as I think it would be way to oily. The smell doesn't bother me. Overall I won't be buying again at $40 a bottle it's definitely not worth it!

My new HG product. I cant think of any other HG product of mine. It is that super. I have very very very dry lips. They peel like nobody's business. Mac lipstick make them peel. Not to even mention about frosted and matte textures. They kill. But 8 hr cream is a god send. I apply it at night. I apply it after brushing my teeth and I blot off the excess. I no longer have dry lips problem. It is such a miracle.
* edit- a good fren of mine religiously applied this on his eczema areas and it really does help. I wanna try this on my face when I go on a long haul flight :)

I bought this cream at the airport in winter when travelling � I knew it from magazines and always wanted to try - because I felt like my skin needed some special care and moisture after the flights and also in the winter here in Europe. And I chose the right product for me. Since then I have been using it when I felt that my skin needed it, always at night almost every day in cold weather. In summer I do still sometimes use it, when I feel that my skin is a bit dryer. I am not sure about a daily usage unless you are super dry. Also works well for the lips and the dry nose area.
Before I used to have the Avene cold cream for the special care in cold weather, but this is much nicer when being applied and it soaks in easier. It has replaced my Cold cream entirely.

SEVIERVILLE, Tenn. (WVLT) -- Sevier County Sheriff's deputies say they broke into a home and stopped a man from killing a woman.
Deputies were called to a home on Old Mountain Road Thursday morning. They arrived to find a scuffle between a man and a woman.
Arrest warrants show a woman, who Roy Buss was trying to tie up and kill, had over powered him and was holding him down when deputies got inside.
Deputies say both the woman and Buss said he was trying to kill her.
Buss has been charged with Aggravated Kidnapping, Resisting Arrest, and Aggravated Domestic Assault. He was taken to the Sevier County Detention Center.

Excellent post, Freddy, and quite an astute psychoanalysis of our buddy LR. I had never looked at it in the manner that you just presented, but I think you are probable dead on with your analysis. All I ask is that they please, pretty please don't do any more giveaway share diluting private placements to the big boys and please don't even think about doing a share rollback. Grow into the share structure as it now stands and let it be!

Prosecution: Corona's posh condo not in asset statement
By Jonathan de Santos and Kathrina Alvarez
Wednesday, January 18, 2012
MANILA (Updated) -- The value of Chief Justice Renato Corona's properties is more than what he disclosed in his statement of assets, liabilities, and net worth (SALN).
This was what spokespersons for the House prosecution panel said after SALN records--later marked as evidence--were turned over to the Senate.
From 2009 to 2010, the worth of his real properties only increased by P4 million despite his purchase of a P14.5-million Bellagio penthouse, the prosecution panel said, citing his SALN.
The SALN records also showed that Corona's real properties from 2003 to 2009 was only "around P14 million." But in 2010, his properties were valued at P18 million, excluding the penthouse that he and his wife, Cristina owned.
The 303.5-square meter condominium unit was purchased on December 16, 2009 and the Condominium Certificate of Title was transferred in January 2010.
Corona's net worth for 2010 would have increased by P14.5 million had he declared The Bellagio property in his SALN.
"His (Corona) SALN did not change from 2003 to 2009, you can only assume that several properties were not in SALN," prosecution panel spokesperson Romero Frederico "Miro" Quimbo told reporters in a press briefing Wednesday.
"If he has five properties, it's either these properties are valued at P1 million or P3 million each, which certainly is not the case," Quimbo added.
Government and high-ranking public officials are required to file their SALN indicating their assets broken down into 1) real properties and 2) personal and other properties; liabilities (loans, mortgages, etc.; and net worth (total assets less total liabilities).
Corona earlier said he only owns five of the 45 properties he allegedly owns. The prosecution panel said records from the Land Registration Authority shows 45 properties were under the name of the Chief Justice and his family.
In his opening statement at the start of the impeachment trial, lead prosecutor Representative Niel Tupas Jr. presented some of the "prized pieces of the Corona crown jewels," including properties in: 1) Spanish Bay, Bonifacio Ridge, acquired October 2005, purchase price P9,159,940; 2) McKinley Hill, Fort Bonifacio, acquired October 21, 2008, purchase price P6,196,575; 3) The Bellagio Tower, Taguig, acquired December 2009, purchase price P14,510,225; 4) The Columns, in Makati, acquired in 2004; 5) One Burgundy Plaza acquired in 2003, purchase price P2,758,000; and 6) Number 57 Maranao Street, La Vista, acquired in 2003, zonal valuation P20.4 million, sold to his daughter for only P18 million.
Tupas said they "will prove at the proper time" if the properties declared in his SALN records were grossly undervalued or undeclared.
"Properties stated in the SALN were not specific...However, there were no amounts stated, like for instance, the Bellagio property...In the 10 SALN records submitted, there was no mention of it (Bellagio)," Tupas told reporters in a briefing after the trial.
Corona's net worth meanwhile are as follows: in 2002, he was worth P14.9 million; in 2003, P7 million; in 2004, P7 million; in 2005, P8 million; in 2006, P9 million; in 2007, 11 million; in 2008, P12 million; in 2009, P14 million; and in 2010, P22.9M.
Quimbo also said that the mere testimony of Supreme Court Clerk of Court Enriquetta Vidal that the SALN records were never disclosed to the public already shows that Corona is guilty of violating Republic Act 6713 or the "Code of Conduct and Ethical Standards for Public Officials and Employees."
"We cannot say that a mere SC circular is higher than the law," Deputy Speaker Lorenzo "Erin" Tanada, another spokesperson for the prosecution panel, said.
During the trial, Vidal cited a court resolution dated May 2, 1989 which bars SC justices from releasing their SALN.
A September 1992 en banc resolution, issued during the term of Chief Justice Andres Narvasa, further denied the disclosure of the SALN of the members of the Judiciary.
Defense panel to object ill-gotten wealth charge
For its part, the defense panel will "vehemently object" to charges of ill-gotten wealth that the prosecution is expected to argue in the impeachment trial of Chief Justice Corona, saying it is not included in the articles of impeachment.

Haque, Mohammed Zahirul, Economic Review
A seminar, held on August 15 in Karachi on "Privatisation - its impact on Pakistan" which was organised jointly by the Old Students Association of the institute of Business Administration and United States Information Service (USIS) threw up for discussion controversial points with regard to the philosophy and rationale of 'Privatisation'. The audience were unanimous on the point that the official policies in this regard were not very clear. Emphasis were made on transparency, sovereignty of the country, clear objectives and also allied matters.
Mr. Abdullah Yusuf, the secretary of Pakistan Privatisation Commission, now a full-fledged ministry, gave a brief history of privatisation in Pakistan, and its success underlining that in Pakistan ninety public sector enterprises have been privatised in the short span of five years. He claimed that the labour has also been convinced of the need of privatisation. He also enumerated the problems and hurdles in the way of privatisation. He, however, admitted that some mistakes were committed by the Privatisation Commission in this regard, but "We will have to take measures to accelerate the process of privatisation". He pointed out that the economy of the country was at stake and needed bold steps, because public sector had failed to achieve the desired result. He informed in this context that Karachi Electric Supply is going to be privatised as a single unit.
Dr. Abdul Hafiz Pasha, former minister of commerce in the caretaker government of Moin Qureshi, now Director of the Institute of Business Administration termed the public sector 'enterprises inefficient' and on the verge of collapse. Privatisation should have improved efficiency, enhanced quality, increased production and reduced prices, without which the transfer of the status of the enterprises from public into private was a meaningless exercise. Dr. Pasha particularly emphasised 'national sovereignty' which ought to be safeguarded at all costs. He rejected the idea expressed by Mr. Yusuf that the price escalation was inevitable at the initial stage, and exposed the reasons which gave rise to the increase in the price of cement just after the privatisation of a number of cement factories.
While commenting on the privatisation of national infrastructure assets, he put a question "should we hand over our vital strategic assets to others for "getting money". He also identified "some other areas of concern" in the privatisation process, and exhorted not to keep eyes shut on the social aspects. …

At the end of December, I posted my new year's resolution:
To quit the Progressive Christian Internet in 2014.
The post generated a good deal of conversation, which was surprising since it felt a little more like a personal rant, a brief window into an internal gut-decision that I was making and thought very few people would understand. I posted it at like 1AM. Thought no one would even read it, honestly.
But people did read it, and people reacted strongly. I learned from the exchange and felt clearer – and stronger – about my conviction when all was said and done. And, in keeping with the nature of the resolution, some of the reactions proved the point that there is, in fact, a conversational problem of unhealthy affect, arrogance, and aggression that seems to dominate segments of the Progressive Christian Internet.
That said, the ensuing month or so of keeping this resolution has given me a better grasp on where I have gotten caught up in the problem. In fact, I did a little editing of the resolution itself and softened the section about a certain "schism"-related post. Note that my disagreement with that post has not softened, but I don't want to go too far in judging personal motives. Because that only contributes to the problem. I want to appreciate the author for his good work while being able to "quit" the conversations that cross the line, in my opinion.
But, guys, seriously: I did quit.
And, I still do.
Which brings me to Patheos.
Hey, Patheos!
When I recently announced that I would be moving my personal blogging from a self-hosted site to the Patheos Progressive Christian Channel, several folks were quick to humorously call me out: "So much for quitting the Progressive Christian Internet! Good job on almost making it a month with your new year's resolution!" And honestly, I get it. I mean the channel is called "Progressive Christian." To any Internet onlooker it would appear that I hastily "quit" only to come back begging for my old job.
But I want to make it clear that there is no hard and fast "Progressive Christian" organization or brand. The label is a loose one, and loosely applied to the Christian category that is, at least, not conservative or fundamentalist in nature. And so the "Progressive Christian Internet" I described in my resolution post was an exercise in ironic branding, as it really refers to a conversation that often seems loudest among the vast, general, loose category of "progressive Christian." (Indeed, the unhealthy conversation that I resolved to quit is that which so often wields the "progressive" label as a weapon against anyone less "progressive" than the person who happens to be tweeting/blogging/etc.)
So with that clarification in place, it is with great excitement that I join the bloggers here at Patheos Progressive Christian! Thank you so much for having me! And let me say with 100% certainty that I see wonderful and necessary conversation and critique happening here among those who are something other than conservative and fundamentalist. (Sidenote: instead of "progressive Christianity" I think it would be great if we adopted the provisional label "other Christianity." Some layered meaning in that word "other" too. But that's for another post.) Thus, it's nothing less than an honor and a privilege to write alongside folks like Benjamin Corey, Nadia Weber, Christian Piatt, Brian McLaren, Fred Clark, and yes…even Tony Jones :).
And, I hope I can contribute something unique, if not exactly new, to the conversation.
My Contribution
I'm an evangelical. Now, I know Patheos has a channel for evangelicals, but I'm an "other evangelical." Perhaps I'm more of a post-evangelical, having grown up and done ministry primarily in the evangelical tradition but finding myself out of sync with most of evangelical church culture. I live in a liberal city and state and love it. I don't vote Republican (Warren '16 - PLEASE). I do ministry with a United Methodist church.
That said, I remain committed to an evangelical orthodoxy. And I identify theologically as a missional Wesleyanabaptist. Yes, I desire my friends and neighbors to experience rescue and restoration in Jesus the Messiah and his messy-yet-beautiful church. Yet I also just want to be a good friend and neighbor, and to love and enjoy those around me with no agenda or expectations. Yes, I want to live a holy life in the midst of a hurting and unjust world and to encourage my family in doing the same. But I also want to be part of an ecclesial movement that graciously brings greater wholeness to the world itself without judgment or antagonism. Yes, I definitely want to protest the notion that civil religion on the right or left is at all a viable option for anyone following the subversive Prince of Peace, and the merging of God's kingdom and American politics is nothing less than doing empire business in the church. And still, I want to participate in my community and in the world in such a way as to add salt and light to the civil – and even political – conversation. (That's why I choose to vote.)
In this sense, my life and ministry are increasingly about going beyond the black and white options of conservative and liberal to follow Jesus as faithfully as possible into something "other." The nuance lies in realizing that gospel and kingdom cannot be co-opted by polarized ideological and political interests. To be missional is to be sent outside of these prevailing options on the right and left, to call the world into a different kind of hope.
If I can contribute anything unique here (and again, it is not really new), it would be a passion for the missional church to emerge out of the polarized, politicized, post-Christendom rubble.
Thanks for reading, and for joining me here at Patheos Progressive Christian.
Should be a fun ride ahead :).


text: I wouldn't call developing film an art, but you retain a measure of control, and ultimately, you will be able to make better prints if you develop your own film. It takes practice to get comfortable. Pick a film and a developer, and stick with it for awhile. I've shot film that I had commercially processed, and have always had a harder time making the prints from those negs. I think the TLR's are a great way to learn, and I find the medium format film easier to load onto reels. It's a great size for printing, not at all hard to do. I would stick with that format for now. It's very satisfying to print your own photos, so good luck with it! And welcome from another Bay Stater!

Muncie Olive Garden on McGalliard Tuesday.
- Filed Under
Despite some delays because of bad weather, Muncie's biggest new commercial development is still on track.
Muncie Marketplace, the new shopping center along McGalliard Road near Target and Muncie Mall, is aiming for completion later this summer so tenants - including Dick's Sporting Goods - can finish their storefronts and move in quickly.
"We've been fighting the rain throughout this spring," Aaron Boyle, a principal in Indianapolis-based developer Midland Atlantic, which is building Muncie Marketplace, said. "But we're making great progress. ...
