I'm back. And motivated for this beautiful New Year.
0sin (pronounced oh-seen), has been my battlecry since i was a protestant. It has long been my desire to live up to this lofty ideal that only our Lord Jesus Christ and His Holy Mother have truly embodied in humanity; without sin—perfect—Zero sin.
If you feel it more than just 'missing the mark' (the definition of sin), to fail to regularly update your blog then you're not surprised at my being far from the most pious example. I promised in my last blog entry months and months ago not to be too busy with life to reasonably check in and post here–as I do love being apart of the Body of Christ here on the blogosphere. Forgive me. 😇
If you follow me on facebook or instagram however, you already know beyond a shadow of the benefit of the doubt that I've fallen far short of this our Christian ideal (0sin a.k.a. the State of Grace), particularly this past year, becoming a father (not the ordained kind) out of wedlock.
My girlfriend and I have been on and off for three years now. Our relationship has endured a good deal of culture gap, a painful amount of trivial selfishness on both our parts, her conversion to the Church, which though wasn't especially difficult is still a conversion nonetheless with all it's struggles, and my own ongoing conversion and wonder about my vocation having begun this relationship in route back to the place where I found my life; a monastery, where I enjoyed the happiest time of my life.
As my mother used to love to say, "Life is in session."
On top of experiencing all this wonderful life, I've become a professional fighter, and as I've mentioned here, now a father of an awesome gift from the Lord in the form of a precious daughter due in May. Wow. All this and a few years ago I thought I was just on my way back to a monastery or onward to seminary.
But I am truly honored. A few days ago I saw all four ventricles of her awesome heart in full force.
Though it's impossible to put a damper on that, her mother and I still face great concern.
I always hoped if this day ever came to raise my child in a traditional catholic family. This is why, for you precious children reading, you must avoid living in sin and even committing sin like the plague. The Lord does a mindblowing job cleaning up our messes, and no mess is to big for Him; Our Lady Undoer of Knots and all the Saints and Angels–the whole Host of Heaven with Him are also our help from Him on high, but still we are charged in all prudence, and it seems an easy gig and all we really have to do not to make things more difficult for ourselves as we so often do.
I am terrified of the uncertainty present in my outlook as to whether my girlfriend and I are called to a Happy Marriage together, particularly as it affects our daughter.
I'm absolutely torn in half as I cant imagine myself living apart from my daughter while my soul still longs for monastic life, though God is indeed calling me here.
Marriage is a terrible bandaid for a failed relationship. Many a Priest have actually advised me against marrying only for the sake of the child.
I just want things to be simple. They were once so simple.
All i know for certain is to recommit myself to obedience and living in the most delectable state of grace (and there's my long-lost beloved simplicity),
shunning the cohabitation that I have allowed to cloud my vision until my girlfriend and I can be joined together in Holy Matrimony or the Lord reveals in dedicated prayer and time spent before the Most Blessed Sacrament His will otherwise.
This endeavor however is more than enough for my seemingly insatiable appetite for the Lord's precious grace; It lights me afire.
Though I'm certainly still not walking by sight, Guiding light illuminates my path–as I look forward to an OH-SEEN-TWENTY-SIXTEEN.
0Sin2016. Back on my guaranteed/certain victory/cant go wrong path. 😇Obedience, Sweet Obedience. Home Sweet Obedience. 0sin2016. #LETSGOCHAMPS !
Well, okay, after much internal poking from myself here I am to blog about the not so important event in the life of the Church that may be moreso important than my busy attention appears to me to have time for. Also I rejoice at the provocation to get back to blogging on my very favorite subject.
Although I very much enjoyed this event, the so-called "fight of the century," a boxing match between the two most legendary fighters of this era in boxing which occured May 2, 2015, it would -were it not for disappointed friends and acquaintances' good hearts rooting for the opposing fighter to my pick for boxing's best and therefore representative of the "good side"- leave me this night either praying my office or training for my own possible soon and upcoming boxing matches as I usually blog to my heart's content only on seemingly "Church related" topics but then again what topic in human affairs is not Church related?
In this current installment of a pastime for some and career for others such as myself the two fighters in boxing's most watched rivalry have become the picturesque presentation of "good guy vs bad guy" in favor of the fighter who rivals the fighter I have rooted for his entire fairytale (for boxers) of a career.
Having lived on both sides of life, baptized and unbaptized, faithful and unfaithful this contradiction is, to me, at the least, interesting since the goodhearted nature in us as well as any religious background causes us to often root for the underdog who in this case is the great Manny Pacquiao who enters the ring wearing a T-shirt which boldly reads, "Jesus is the name of the Lord." All this man's opponents just must be considered "evil" I often state with no small amount of sarcasm to rival the most radicalized Muslim terrorist.
When friends find im rooting for this outspoken believer's most lusted after opponent they are often vehement and as one recently told me inspiring this blog, "really disappointed." With my religious background it seems I would not be rooting for Floyd Mayweather who although has always been the underdog to me in spite of an undefeated professional career, along with representing the "haves" (despite coming from the poverty of us have-nots) in our culture, having amassed an insane fortune throughout his illustrious career and flashily lived a lavish and unfrugal lifestyle has been accused of and even convicted of domestic violence which makes even the faintest of hearts whose allegiance lies with the underdog see themselves in the shoes of his opponent administering justice for the most despicable of crimes.
Having come from the lower class, or the "have-nots," its not difficult for me to understand why athletes all too often receive the attention, careful study and research the Saints deserve. It's also pretty natural for me to see his seemingly unfrugal or overspending lifestyle (though my devout religion and faith would prevent my cooperation with) as a celebration of escaping poverty and a rejoicing in being a child of God as the super rich and great King Solomon's figure in our faith may reveal.
It is this attention for the hero who beats poverty with God and hard work that I grew up fighting with prior to my baptism that I maintain in my shared profession with these two fighters and my continued fight against poverty that has placed me in the position to explain to my friends and family and loved ones that this man seen as a "nonbeliever" and a "woman beater" (as one of my dearest Catholic friends protested recently) to the majority of this historic event's onlookers is actually "one of us."
I know through and through the struggle to escape poverty which causes many of us to idolize those who were born into poverty and managed to escape it, biding their time whilst overworking and overcoming the odds to be able to use it as a campaign tool for support in further endeavors.
Having converted to our one true faith in my adulthood it is natural also for me to understand why most are rooting for the man in this rivalry whose religious faith and fervor is seemingly more visible, for I have obtained that which is most priceless and renders financial poverty absolutely irrelevant and exposes it for the illusion that it is in the spiritually rich life, giving us the faith to persist in peace in all our battles knowing we shall overcome since we have indeed already. This is the understanding that allows those who endure poverty to even concern themselves with taking sides in a rivalry between two "haves" who no longer struggle with us "havenots" against poverty, it would seem.
Our allegiance arises based on familiarities nationalities and principles that cause us to identify a fighter as one of our own or one of us through whom we vicariously live. We familiarize ourselves with a hero who though many of us have never met is seen as representing or fighting for and with us while inside we silently proclaim, "once a have-not always a have-not," and mysteriously the huge financial gap between the rooting and the rooted for has disappeared; we now train, prepare and walk in the ring with the underdog for whom we hope and pray, as I have prayed my Rosary before the Most Blessed Sacrament and trained hard living in a state of grace in offering for the one I familiarize myself with and live vicariously through wishing and praying the best for him including forgiveness, safekeeping from sin and victory while praying for the welfare of both competitors.
Still upon viewing the results of recent poles taken in favor of the legend Manny Pacquiao at 59 to 41 percent and some even greater, you may wonder how I can root for the man who is not a known churchgoer vs. the man who is? Whose sins have been more visible to the eye of his fellow human being? Well now we get down to the "nitty-gritty" and full blown defense.
I dont know if my boxing hero has been a "woman beater…" I care….but I also care as much as Jesus Christ cares for your identity and that of my loved ones. I do know Forgiveness…I receive Him in person in Holy Communion in the faith and fidelity of my baptism and I ask my dear friends who refer to one according to any sin they might have had to bear, "are you the name of your sins?" Christianity teaches us that the Lord who will judge all as my hero stated in his post fight interview, does not call us by the name of our sins as does the enemy of our souls and throws them in the "sea of forgetfulness" mentioned in the Holy Bible once we have repented; that a repentant contrite heart He does not spurn. My boxing hero tells us in response to an unnecessary (in my opinion) investigation into his personal life that he asks God's forgiveness and proclaims that though we as human beings do not forget, God forgives. Many need this investigation. I do not. Maybe its my shared nationality or physically shared attributes that keep my focus on the competition but it is most certainly my faith which tells me the state of my own soul and the eternal need for the Lord Jesus Christ's mercy; enables me to win wagers turning one talent into two -to see and predict victory for my hero-the athelete and hero who fights poverty (though I still would not withhold my prayers) long before he steps in the ring to fight for his life and legacy and the livelihood of his family. It helps that I know the sport of boxing as a professional myself ( I'm far from what is called a casual boxing fan) but besides our prayers, the Lord leaves much up to us in obtaining our victories as we are blessed and set apart from all creation as most marvelous human beings to be the most intimate coworkers with God. Focus, dedication, determination. As many football and sports teams have traditionally prayed to God for victory…as many husbands and wives compete for the very same good job to provide for their families…my argument insists that the winner of this fight must be just as innocent or guilty or good as you or I…and that God's favor still gives great meaning to the phrase "may the best man win."
Add Manny Pacquiao to the list :)
The Church will make you a mystic!
He has shown His (Sacred & Holy) Face.
It's all over — I forget all my gripes.
All My strivings cease-
-before his true Highness in His presence beyond ALL manner-before His Holy Face.
The Sun has risen (Indeed).
In ALL His (Heavenly) Glory!
Though your sins be as scarlett,
they shall surely be as white as snow.
I felt like Simeon.
He does exist indeed. I have swallowed Truth with mine own eyes–through them I have consumed the Holy Sacrifice – the bread of Angels with my whole heart.
All the truth of his Holy Church has been confirmed for me.
All She proclaims is Truth–Is Him-Her/our Bridegroom
who indeed has come to redeem us and marry us–clean us up and make us His own.
It's not even been a half-hour, and already
I am overwhelmed with His Grace.
Already I am twice risen from the dead having been first upon sight of Him- slain in the Spirit as protestants say but can only allude to in my opinion –having experienced their exclamation as a convert myself which describes being finished with life of sin, and then having been filled with joy, and life and vitality being in His presence. I am feeling the difference between the Wise Men guided by the Star on their way to Him and the Wise Men arrived THERE Before His Mother & the King–ever Newborn. The difference between being On their way their and being THERE before Him the Saviour of the world. I am so glad to have arrived.
I am suspended.
No wonder they say people (the Saints) levitate or have levitated — (Leviticus) — I feel as though I am–or I might or I will eventually sitting here barely able to stay in my chair and soon to be on my knees in adoration.
Now I am content to just close my eyes and breathe–
inhale through my nose the air –the sweet air that surrounds Him and us here in the chapel.
Here is life.
Oh I am (usually/all too often) Saint Martha—worried about many things…Lord…not now of course but all too often–before You have strengthened my faith with Your Holy Presence-which assures me nothing is wrong–all is well–for You have or will fix Everything.
The last half-hour has disappeared…in the Presence of the King. He gives us here before Him the strength to -carry our cross- do our mission whatever it may be.
The strength to reach out of ourselves to others either in prayer or in loving action.
All we have to do is come before Him.
Yes, I can do all (whatever) that You ask of me Lord-If you Send me, then How could I not? For the devil himself would have to stop me and Saint Michael and your Angels would fight for me as they did for Moses and even if my mortal life ended my mission from Heaven would be as a grain of wheat that falls to the floor and bears much fruit-accomplished.
Farver Phil has had a rethink about his theological position, in so far as he can determine one as being definitive, and wishes to share his "thoughts" with us.
Well, there really is no gratitude, and I know Jesus said we would have to carry the odd cross or two, but can he have had any idea of how hard it is to deal with people when you are a bishop? It was OK for him, he was just an itinerant preacher – good bloke, don't get me wrong, but he never had to put up with ingratitude from his closest followers now, did he? OK, I know that Judas bloke was tempted by the devil, but you know, modern theologians say we can't blame him, so that's no parallel to the betrayal I have suffered.

In November I became a truck-driver. In the addition to the cross-country life, the 14hour days and life in session i've failed my commitment to shout from the mountaintops here on the blogosphere and have been doing so more conveniently on facebook (http://www.facebook.com/knyse). However, having a bit of time off from work to deal with a medical issue (please pray for me), i'd like to renew my commitment to get here at least once a month.
If there is one thing i'd like to blog about right now,which keeps my eye always on the prize, it would be the necessity of the Blessed Mother's role in our Salvation in Christ Jesus our Lord and our God which of course always leads us to perfect Communion with God. And so The greatest thing I can think to share right now, which most consumes my mind currently is the most marvelous message of Fatima. And here are some links. If they aren't accessible please copy and paste into your browser. =)
Our Lady of Fatima on Fox News.
Our Lady of Akita Japan.
Beautiful Prayer from the link above:
"Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, truly present in the Holy Eucharist, I consecrate my body and soul to be entirely one with Your Heart, being sacrificed at every instant on all the altars of the world and giving praise to the Father, pleading for the coming of His Kingdom. Please receive this humble offering of myself. Use me as You will for the glory of the Father and the salvation of souls.
"Most Holy Mother of God. Never let me be separated from Your Divine Son. Please defend and protect me as Your special child. Amen."
Here's a beautiful true story and the Most Spectacular Poem i've ever seen.
And here's some hope for the future from a rising "star" in music–
If you can't catch me warming in my barrio
I'm with my litas praying the Rosario!!!!!!!!!! Wuuuuuht !!!! =D Amen ;) Check out how she reps Our Lady! She rocks a shirt with the Virgin on it! Praise Jesus. Thank God for the few and the proud who keep God alive in a world that drifts steadily toward Godlessness and the few who know our Blessed Mother-the World's Last hope to turn Hearts to the Lord. Praise Jesus.

5th attempt at a cable mount. (drawn in sketchup, cleaned with netfabb) I had problems with the clip being too brittle and tried to fix it by fattening the clip. Didn't work? Maybe I need to change some slic3r setting?
This is supposed to hold the '3/8" Flex Tubing' cable sleeve I got from Home Depot (part# FLX-3810T). The bottom foot should mount on the ord-bot hadron x carrage using the 2 holes on the upper right side of the carriage plate.
I finally got #5 to print as a usable part. Previous prints were too brittle. I used 1.75mm white ABS (measured 1.60-1.63) and set slic3r to use 120% extrusion. (Previous parts had linear voids at fracture points.)
Tested this against the Tubing Sleeve and it is a tight fit. Once I mount it on the printer I'll post a picture showing the fit.

Rich in natural resources, but with a small slice of the state's population, the rural counties of California often band together to speak with a stronger voice on their issues of concern.
California's Legislative Rural Caucus was formed in 2003 as a bipartisan group of 50 members from both the Assembly and the Senate.
The latest member of the legislature to champion the concerns of the rural counties as chair of the Legislative Rural Caucus is Assembly member Frank Bigelow (R-O'Neals), who was elected to the leadership position in April.
Bigelow was elected in 2012 to represent the 5th Assembly District. The district encompasses Alpine, Amador, Calaveras, El Dorado, Madera, Mariposa, Mono and Tuolumne counties. The 5th district includes Lake Tahoe and Yosemite National Park.
Bigelow lives in O'Neals, Madera County, and is an owner of two family businesses, Bigelow Farms and Ponderosa Telephone Company.
As stewards of the greatest share of the state's water resources, the ability of the mountain counties to continue to provide these resources locally and statewide is a serious question.
Bigelow has connected the Legislative Rural Caucus with the Mountain Counties Water Resources Association to create a link between the rural legislators and water resources leaders in the mountain counties.
Mountain Counties was formed in the early 1950s. Its mission is to unite agencies, groups and individuals whose interests include protecting and enhancing Mountain Counties' water resources throughout the foreseeable future.
The membership area of Mountain Counties is similar to the 5th Assembly District, with the addition of some counties in the 1st Assembly District. Both the 5th Assembly District and Mountain Counties include El Dorado County. Others in the Mountain Counties are: Alpine, Amador, Calaveras, Madera, Mariposa, Nevada, Placer, Plumas, Sierra, Tuolumne, Yuba and portions of Butte, Fresno and Lassen counties.
Public information is available on the Legislative Rural Caucus Website: rural.assembly.ca.gov. That Website lists Mountain Counties as a resource, and includes a link to the Website mountaincountieswater.com.
In a letter to Bigelow dated July 22 from Mountain Counties Executive Director John Kingsbury, he wrote, "It is critical that we help our state and federal decision makers fully understand that this region is part of the solution to the water crisis."
He cited Gov. Jerry Brown's pledge to Colusa farmers to "incorporate (certain historic water rights) as an iron-clad, legal, statutory and maybe even constitutional guarantee" into "anything we do with this Delta facility." The Governor reiterated his promise on July 15 when he and then Secretary of the Interior Ken Salazar outlined revisions to the Bay Delta Conservation Plan.
At that time, Gov. Brown further stated, "The state is committed to fixing the Delta. It should make a similar commitment to protect the Delta headwaters in the Sierra Nevada mountain range."
In describing his role as Legislative Rural Caucus chair, Bigelow said in an e-mail: "As the chair of the Legislative Rural Caucus I look forward to providing a stronger voice for rural communities in Sacramento. The needs of rural areas can, and have in the past, been either ignored or not prioritized by the State Legislature. I am committed to ensuring that the issues and concerns raised by constituents of rural California are accurately and effectively represented in Sacramento.
"The mountain counties which I represent in the legislature will benefit greatly from the strong voice of the bi-partisan Legislative Rural Caucus," Bigelow said. "Unique healthcare, resource and water needs and preparation for natural emergencies are vitally important to our area of the state and the entire Rural Caucus. I look forward to working on behalf of the mountain communities with my colleagues in the legislature to make sure rural California is protected."

We track four people on their journey.
We investigate the murky world of Cambodian news
Inside Story | 31 May 2013 13:18 GMT | Business & Economy, US & Canada, Switzerland, United States
Switzerland has succumbed to US pressure and agreed to let its banks release information about their American clients who are suspected of tax evasion.
A Swiss government bill was put to parliament that allows its banks to hand over internal information to the US authorities. The move, which was outlawed previously, was approved to cooperate with US investigators and to help what they said was a prevention of continuing criminal activity.
I think everybody thought, and even the Swiss banks themselves thought, the US government enforcement authorities would go after the citizens themselves .... The fact is that it is clear that the citizen of the US, or the citizen of any country, has responsibility to adhere to the laws of his country. And what's happened here is that the US has put a responsibility in US courts on Swiss banks to enforce US law, which is kind of extraterritorial.
Kevin Hassett, director of Economic Policy Studies at the American Enterprise Institute
The Swiss government, hoping to save its banks from heavier punishment in the US for helping wealthy tax cheats, is sidestepping its own famed secrecy laws to let bankers disclose data to US prosecutors.
The Swiss decision has two key points: over the course of 12 months banks will be allowed to turn over general statistical information to American authorities; and more importantly, the US can seek concrete account details.
In 2009, the US brought a historic case against Switzerland's largest bank UBS. The Swiss banking giant was accused of conspiring to help 52,000 American clients evade taxes. UBS avoided prosecution - but at the cost of disclosing the names of around 5,000 US clients and paying a $780m fine. The case left Swiss banking secrecy intact, but pierced it for the first time and changed the way the US pursues offshore tax evaders.
Swiss banks have had a code of secrecy regarding their account holders for over 300 years. The code was enshrined in law in the Banking Act of 1934, when it became a criminal offence for bankers to divulge client information. The only expections are if accounts are used for things like drug trafficking, organised crime or insider trading, and if there is strong evidence of a crime, then a government agency (particularly a foreign one) can access account information.
Credit Suisse and Julius Baer are among the banks that have so far agreed to cooperate.
Eveline Widmer-Schlumpf, the Swiss finance minister, says the decision was taken to restore stabilty to Swiss banking. "We are convinced it's a good, pragmatic solution that really helps the banks resolve this issue. What we're really aiming for is that stability and calm finally returns, so our banks can go after their core business, which is providing good services."
So, is this a means of crime-fighting, or is it a breach of privacy? What does this mean for Switzerland's famous banking secrecy laws? And what will happen to the billions of dollars outsiders invest in Swiss banks?
To discuss this, Inside Story, with presenter Mike Hanna, is joined by guests: Jean-Pierre Diserens, an economist and the general secretary of the Convention of Independent Financial Advisors (CIFA); and Kevin Hassett, director of Economic Policy Studies at the American Enterprise.
"We don't know the finer details of the legislation yet. What we have to be aware of it that there is an agreement somewhere and the US authorities or the IRS are requesting Switzerland to sign this agreement and then they will work out the details later. This for Switzerland would, or should, be unacceptable.
"When we look at all this pressure from the United States on Switzerland, to change its bank secrecy rules and to openits books to the IRS, immediately the question is: 'Where is the reciprocity for this?' And we have to be aware thatthe United States is the first competitor of Switzerland for global wealth management .... And when we look at the situation in which the US is right now, of course it is in their interest to agress their first competitors and to try to get that business back to the United States."
- Jean-Pierre Diserens, general secretary of the Convention of Independent Financial Advisors (CIFA)

Pramod Sharma wanted his 5-year-old to look up from playing games on the iPad.
So, last year the former Google Inc. engineer teamed up with fellow Googler and gaming veteran Jerome Scholler to form Tangible Play Inc. and build a system that goes beyond the screen. The Osmo product uses a reflective mirror that clamps over the camera on iPads to turn the surface in front of the device into a play area. Read More »

Crowdfunding pioneers Indiegogo and Kickstarter opened up their fundraising platforms in 2008 and 2009 respectively, but 2012 may be the first year that tech investors and entrepreneurs took crowdfunding very seriously.

Some hardware entrepreneurs raised huge amounts via crowdfunding this year, notably Pebble Technology which raised $10.27 million in July on Kickstarter. The company is still developing and manufacturing their signature "smartwatch," a time piece that also alerts its wearer with vibrations when a call, email or message comes through their smartphone.

Postmodern Issues in Janette Turner Hospital's
Nature-Dominated Short Stories [The End-of-the
line End-of-the-world Disco] and [Our Own
Little Kakadu]
Donna J. Davis
In exploring Janette Turner Hospital's use of nature imagery in her two short stories, [The End-of-the-line End-of-the-world Disco] and [Our Own Little Kakadu,] readers can identify numerous often overlapping postmodern issues, including diversity, ecofeminism,1 and postcolonial concerns. In this chapter I shall attempt to show how in her use of nature imagery Hospital touches on these postmodern issues while addressing and subverting a variety of imperialist agendas, including European techno-capitalist dominance, white-male monoculture and dominance, European linguistic dominance, and European versions of history and ways of knowing (Ashcroft, Griffiths, and Tiffin 33).
The landscape of Australia contains much more than the European mapmakers saw, according to Hospital, because those mapmakers were blinded by their own cultural biases (qtd. in Connolly 88–89). To Aborigines, as with peoples of many other cultures, the land, not humankind, is central. T C. McLuhan writes in The Way of the Earth: Encounters with Nature in Ancient and Contemporary Thought:[In Aboriginal Australia there is no geography without meaning or sacredness. Life is lived out in a constellation of relatedness anchored in the land. The whole of Aboriginal countryside is one living ageless family tree] (40). Indeed, W.E.H. Stanner [had seen an Aboriginal lie down and embrace the earth he walked on] (qtd. in McLuhan 42).2 Further, in reporting on her studies of the similarities and differences in the views of the nature of six cultures, McLuhan explains that for the Aborigines of Australia [perhaps more than in any other society, land is a fountain of energy that invigorates their world] (42). Indeed, the land is perceived in that culture as a living, sentient being; says one Aborigine, [That country knows who is walking about in it. It can feel who is there. It knows if a stranger comes. And it can get angry—start a bush fire, or

Who does Dr Phelps really represent?
- Share
The right-wing extremists are not just in the NSW Liberal Party, they have made it to the centre.
It has been known for some time that the group aligned with shady Opus Dei-connected NSW Upper House power-broker, David Clarke, has infiltrated the federal ranks, and the revelations yesterday of Federal minister Gary Nairn's chief of staff, Peter Phelps, heckling a Labor candidate at a public meeting, brought it out further into the open.
Dr Phelps, as was revealed in question time yesterday, compared Colonel Mike Kelly, a former Australian soldier, with the guards at the Nazi Belsen death camp, over his service in Iraq. Colonel Kelly just happens to be standing against Mr Nairn in Eden-Monaro.
Dr Phelps has a long association with the far right, and the Clarke acolyte, Senator Fierravanti-Wells, paid him tribute in her first speech after being elected in 2005. He has also worked for the chilling Senator Eric Abetz, whom no one would ever call a moderate.
He was instrumental in the undermining of the talented Liberal MLC, John Ryan, leading not only to Ryan's defeat, but his subsequent suspension from the Liberal Party for daring to go public. Ryan is just the sort of people the Liberals need, and especially so in NSW.
Ryan's political assassination is an unpublicised case study of all that is wrong with the NSW Liberal Party and why its current extremist domination will drive it into well-deserved oblivion.
One of the very few NSW Liberals to emerge from the western suburbs of Sydney, Ryan, a former high school teacher, took a great interest in social justice issues and was highly regarded for his advocacy on behalf of people with disability, child protection and for reforms to the regulation of boarding houses. As a backbencher he also conducted a long running campaign to enhance protection for consumers in the resident home building industry against unscrupulous builders.
Although a committed evangelical Christian towards the end of his career he was frequently at odds with representatives of the so called "religious right" for supporting socially progressive initiatives such as a bill to codify how parents might smack children, a bill to trial medically supervised injecting rooms for heroin addicts and a Bill to lower the age the age of consent for homosexual sex.
It was this latter issue, apparently, that drew the ire of Clarke, and especially Phelps. In 2003, I attended a Liberal Party gathering to talk about Bob Menzies on the 25th anniversary of his death, but Dr Phelps was not interested. His main concern was getting through a motion condemning attempts in NSW to lower the age of homosexual consent.
On 18 November 2006, despite strong endorsement from the then NSW Liberal Leader Peter Debnam, John Ryan was defeated in a preselection ballot for the Liberal Party Legislative Council ticket by a "right wing" candidate Marie Ficarra – backed and supported by Dr Phelps.
Is this the sort of support Gary Nairn is courting in his bid to hold one of the most marginal government seats?
The far right which now controls the NSW Liberals is akin to the left which ran the Victorian ALP after the 1955 split: forget electoral success; fight for purity.
One must ask whether Dr Phelps is any sort of asset at all, and just who it is he really represents.
Dr Norman Abjorensen's book, Leadership and the Liberal Revival: Bolte, Askin and the Post-war Ascendancy, will be published in October by Australian Scholarly Publishing.
Irfan Yusuf also has memories of Dr Phelps:
I've known Peter Phelps since 1995. He was a member of the Left who then defected to the Right. He is a very smart chap with a PhD in history from Sydney Uni.
Phelps first burst onto the conservative scene as editor of a Right Wing Young Liberal newsletter called "The Atlas" which lasted some 5 or 6 editions.
In 1996, Phelps went to work for Federal Member for Lowe Paul Zammitt. At first Zammitt stopped Phelps from doing factional work, hoping that behaving in a factionally neutral manner would gain Zammitt a ministry.
Zammitt forced Phelps to stop producing his "The Atlas" newsletter after Phelps ran a front page editorial calling for Medicare to be abolished.
Zammitt's factional neutrality didn't gain him a ministry. Phelps suggested to Zammitt that he become an internal Right Wing warrior of Sydney's inner-west. Zammitt took on this advice but his paranoia led him to upset more conservatives than lefties.
Zammitt eventually saw the writing on the wall and decided to ditch the Liberal Party altogether and become an independent. Poor Phelps was left high and dry. However, he was looked after and has now risen up the ranks to become chief of staff to two Special Ministers of State.
The Coalition has little reason to complain about Phelps, who has always been known to speak his mind, even if potentially embarrassing his politician bosses. Phelps' latest foray against Mike Kelly is quite characteristic of his brash style, something he has maintained since his Young Liberal days.
Phelps is merely behaving consistently with the culture of the NSW Liberal Party. Here, politics is treated like a game of cricket, and Phelps is someone who prefers to bowl bouncers. Sadly, on this occasion, all he has achieved is adding runs to his opponent's run tally.

©2011-2016 Carlos-the-G
Keeping up practice with Giselle and inking....
Don't... make me... listen to Gorgoroth... again! <3
Thou shall listen to ALL the Gorgoroth!
A request; please draw some black metal-loving devil girl craving for Gaahl. (Yes, I know Gaahl is gay, my request is meant to be something pathetic, as I sometimes love pathetic things )
Ah, she is a cute little demon, isn't she? Damn you, Leonard Nimoy! You stole a great woman!
She's very cute.
This is a nice piece of work that while it is practice still shows a great ordeal of improvements in working with anatomy, characteristics and colour all in one. Your style has really become quite animated since last time and the way you've played around with the body and expression really make her vibrant and loveable. The cell shading style with the small addition of airbrushed highlights on the skin are on area that certainly does shine and uses a good mixture of two styles in one, what's nice though is the focus on cell shading mostly for the rest of the design which is a nice counter balance and allows for the design to have that sharp edgy look to make it standout in the crowd.
Great for cover art!
What's she listening too? Anime tunes?
Nerdy Demons. Better than expected.
Sweeeet! The shirt made me giggle!
Cute T.
Pon farr, YO.
spock has all the luck...
<3 Giselle.
Gee, Mr. G!
i would happily sell my soul to her.
Adorable, I love it!
Must obey Giselle
"zombie glare" must have more Giselle. And brains. Need more brains. Ran out yesterday.

If Shakespeare had ever written a play about Afghanistan, it would have been a tragedy, not a comedy. For the United States, Afghanistan has been one tragedy after another, with more looming ahead.
In that part of the world, the only thing more dangerous than failure is success. It was America's success in helping the mujahedeen rebels defeat the Soviet Union that spawned later troubles. In the vacuum left by the departure of the Red Army, civil war broke out among competing factions, with the fanatical Taliban coming out on top.
Their theocratic regime eventually found common cause with al-Qaida after it moved from Sudan to Afghanistan. From that safe refuge, Osama bin Laden plotted and carried out attacks on American targets, but the Clinton administration and the Bush administration failed to respond effectively. The failure led to the 9/11 catastrophe.
After nearly 3,000 people were slaughtered on American soil, the United States invaded Afghanistan. Critics warned it was plunging into a quagmire, but they were proved wrong. In just two months, the Taliban were smashed, al-Qaida was on the run, and victory was ours.
It was a heady moment. In his State of the Union speech in January 2002, President Bush waxed triumphant, asserting that we had "saved a people from starvation and freed a country from brutal oppression."
But as any student of tragedy knows, it is moments of triumph that carry the greatest risk. Emboldened by our stunning victory in Afghanistan, Bush and his advisers concluded we could win just as easily and quickly in Iraq. The Pentagon figured the U.S. presence would stay no more than six months, with a spokesman saying, "The plan is to get it done as quickly as possible and get out."
Having been drawn into that blunder, the administration proceeded to make another one: shortchanging the mission in Afghanistan to avert defeat in Iraq. Adm. Michael Mullen, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, recently told a Senate Committee, "We very badly under-resourced Afghanistan for the better part of four or five years."
The Bush administration, through hubris or incompetence, acted as though that war were not very important or already won. For the average American, it was easy to forget it was still going on. Few people ever expected that after routing our enemies in 2001, we would still be fighting eight years later -- and faring worse all the time.

Donald Metcalf
|Donald Metcalf
|26 February 1929
|15 December 2014[1]
(aged 85)
Melbourne, Australia
|Walter and Eliza Hall Institute of Medical Research
|Known for
|discovering the colony stimulating factors
|Notable awards
Donald Metcalf AC FRS FAA (26 February 1929 – 15 December 2014) was an Australian medical researcher who spent most of his career at the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute of Medical Research in Melbourne. In 1954 he received the Carden Fellowship from the Anti-Cancer Council of Victoria; while he officially retired in 1996, he continued working and held his fellowship until his retirement in December 2014.[2]
Scientific career[edit]
Metcalf studied medicine at the University of Sydney, and had his first experience of medical research in the laboratory of Professor Patrick de Burgh. In 1954 Metcalf was awarded up a Carden Fellowship from the Anti-Cancer Council of Victoria at the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute of Medical Research. There he initially studied virology and leukemia, later transitioning to hematology.[3]
Metcalf's pioneering research revealed the control of blood cell formation and the role of hematopoietic cytokines. In the 1960s he developed techniques to culture blood cells, which led to the discovery of colony-stimulating factors (CSFs), including macrophage colony-stimulating factor, granulocyte colony-stimulating factor and granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor. CSFs are cytokines that control white blood cell formation and are responsible for resistance to infection. CSFs are now widely used to boost the immune system for patients receiving chemotherapy, and to mobilise blood stem cells for transplants.
Personal life[edit]
Metcalf has four daughters and six grandchildren. He lived in Melbourne with his wife, Josephine, and died on 15 December 2014 following pancreatic cancer.[4]
His autobiography is Summon up the Blood: In dogged pursuit of the blood cell regulators (AlphaMed Press, Dayton, Ohio, USA, 2000. ISBN 1-880854-28-7.)
In the Australia Day Honours of 1976, he was named an Officer of the Order of Australia (AO).[5] In the Queen's Birthday Honours of 1993, he was promoted to Companion of the Order (AC).[6]
Metcalf has been awarded many international prizes including the 1986 Royal Society Wellcome Prize (now the GlaxoSmithKline Prize), the 1987 Bristol-Myers Award for Distinguished Achievement in Cancer Research (jointly with Leo Sachs), the 1998 Robert Koch Prize, the 1988 Armand Hammer Prize for Cancer Research, the 1989 General Motors Cancer Foundation Sloan Prize, the 1993 Lasker-DeBakey Clinical Medical Research Award, the 1993 Louisa Gross Horwitz Prize from Columbia University, the 1994 Jessie Stevenson Kovalenko Medal from the United States National Academy of Sciences, the 1994 Gairdner Foundation International Award, the 1995 Royal Society Royal Medal and, in 2007, a Lifetime Achievement Award from the American Association for Cancer Research.
In Australia Metcalf has received the 1985 James Cook Medal, the 2000 Victoria Prize, the 2001 Prime Minister's Prize for Science and the Centenary Medal.[7]

02 Nov 2012
ADMINISTRATIONS in England and Wales have hit a five-year low, according to government statistics.
In the third quarter of the year, there were just 548 administrations, the lowest recorded level since the start of the credit crunch in 2007.
Further reading
The rate of administrations has been steadily falling since a high of 2,018 in the fourth quarter of 2008.
Figures from the Insolvency Service show just 986 companies entered into administration, receivership or a company voluntary arrangement in Q3 2012, which is 21% lower than the same period a year ago.
There were 277 receiverships, 548 administrations and 161 Company Voluntary Arrangements (CVAs) for the third quarter.
However, experts in the field argue that the latest figures don't show the full picture and that zombie businesses are being propped up by banks' reluctance to withdraw credit facilities, which is delaying the inevitable.
Insolvency trade body R3 president and Deloitte partner Lee Manning said: "Our research shows 146,000 businesses are in fact 'zombies', whereby at best they are able to pay the interest on their debts but not reduce the debt itself.
"Some of these businesses have been 'running on empty' for quite some time now, and with no reserves left in the tank, they may not be able to carry on for much longer."
His views are echoed by insolvency expert and partner at international law firm Schultze & Braun Frank Tschentscher, who said that we are likely to see an insolvency Armageddon.
"This is the oddest recession I've ever seen. The apparent decrease in corporate insolvencies appears to be a positive sign for the UK economy, but is actually a false dawn. If the UK were edging out of recession, then insolvencies would rocket. Despite the administration of Comet, which is a good sign of the high-street rebalancing after decades of unsustainable growth and prosperity on the back of debt finance, the reality is that nothing will alter the big picture for a number of years," he said.
"The reality for many British businesses is that they will continue to limp along for several years yet, but as soon as there are real signs of growth in the economy, we are likely to see an insolvency Armageddon."
Measures by government to keep the interest rate low are also helping these zombie companies bump along, said HW Fisher & Company insolvency partner Nick O'Reilly.
"[The statistics] fail to show the pressure which has built up in the system, as thousands of companies bump along the bottom, kept alive only by low interest rates, and frequently by their owners pumping personal savings into them," he said.
"We're routinely seeing struggling companies taking on work at below cost, simply to keep the cash coming in. But this is only delaying the inevitable."
PKF insolvency partner Bryan Jackson also argues that these low figures are not an indication of normal economic behaviour as pre-recession company administrations are usually at higher levels.
"Prior to the recession, the quarterly corporate failure rate was almost 1,000 businesses, fewer than now so it is important not to simply accept this fall as a positive sign that recovery is on the way," he said.
"There remain many factors which are suppressing the corporate failure rate, including low interest rates, a relatively benign approach from lenders who are keen not to close businesses when they have a lot to lose, and business owners who are ploughing in years of cash reserves to keep their businesses afloat."
Liquidations and creditors' voluntary liquidations also decreased to 3,971 – a 2.8% drop on the previous quarter and 6.6% less than the same period a year ago.
PwC partner Mike Jervis, recently appointed to London black cab manufacturer Manganese Bronze, gave his prediction for the new year.
"We expect these lower levels of insolvencies to continue into the new year," he said. "However, what happens after that depends crucially on the confidence of the consumer and the approach taken by the so-called 'zombie' companies to rectify their balance sheets."
