Andrew Marr says he will ignore BBC diktat to stop use of BC and AD
Common sense: Andrew Marr said he will be sticking with the terms BC and AD
One of the BBC's most high-profile presenters has vowed to continue using the terms BC and AD despite claims the Corporation has barred it the term to avoid offending non-Christians.
Andrew Marr told how he had no plans to change the terminology he used.
When asked yesterday if he was now using the obscure modern terms Common Era and Before Common Era, Marr replied: 'I'm not.'
He went on: 'I say AD and BC because that's what I understand. I don't know what the Common Era is. Why is it the Common Era in 20AD and it wasn't the Common Era in 20BC?'
Mr Marr made his comments to fellow journalists Polly Toynbee and Matthew Parris on his own programme, The Andrew Marr Show.
He was speaking after the Corporation was accused of 'absurd political correctness' for apparently dropping the terms BC and AD in case they offended non-Christians.
Last night, the BBC insisted the change was not a guideline and was the choice of individual production teams.
Some of the BBC's most popular programmes including University Challenge, presented by Jeremy Paxman, and Radio 4's In Our Time, hosted by Melvyn Bragg, are among the growing number of shows using the new descriptions.
BBC goes PC with BCE: The birth of Jesus will no longer be used as a reference point at the Corporation. The Before Christ time marker will be replaced with Before Common Era
The BBC's religious and ethics department says the changes are necessary to avoid offending non-Christians.
It states: 'As the BBC is committed to impartiality it is appropriate that we use terms that do not offend or alienate non-Christians. In line with modern practice BCE/CE (Before Common Era/ Common Era) are used as a religiously neutral alternative to BC/AD.'
But the move has angered many Christians. Other critics also claim the new terms are meaningless because, like AD and BC, they still denote years in relation to the life of Jesus Christ.
Dr Michael Nazir-Ali, the former Bishop of Rochester, said: 'I think this amounts to the dumbing down of the Christian basis of our culture, language and history. These changes are unnecessary and they don't achieve what the BBC wants them to achieve.
Anno Domini, shortened to AD and translated from the Latin for 'the year of Our Lord', counts the years after the birth, or conception, of Jesus Christ.
Before Christ, or BC, denotes the years before this time.
The terms, introduced in the sixth century by Dionysius Exiguus, are used in the Gregorian calendar, the Christian calendar recognised worldwide.
Common Era, or CE, and Before Common Era, or BCE, have been used as religiously neutral alternatives since the 19th century to be sensitive to non-Christians.
But the two systems are numerically equivalent – for example, '2011 CE' denotes the same year as '2011 AD'.
'Whether you use Common Era or Anno Domini, the date is actually still the same and the reference point is still the birth of Christ.'
Marie Clair of the Plain English Campaign said: 'As with most politically correct innovations, I am sure this was done with the best of intentions.
'But it is difficult to see what the point of the changes are if people do not understand the new terms. It sounds like change just for the sake of change.'
The terms are not confined to religious output and have also been used in news bulletins.
The BBC's Learning and GCSE Bitesize websites, which are aimed at schoolchildren, also use the terms. The Learning website advises that 'BCE/CE is now more acceptable to a greater number of faiths and religions'.
Several prominent Christians have blasted the Corporation.
Ann Widdecombe, the Catholic former Tory Minister, said: 'I think what the BBC is doing is offensive to Christians. They are discarding terms that have been around for centuries and are well understood by everyone.
'What are they going to do next? Get rid of the entire calendar on the basis that it has its roots in Christianity?'
Offended: Ann Widdecombe, the Catholic former Tory Minister
Whilst a spokesman for the Church of England said that although both terms were common, BC and AD 'more clearly reflect Britain's Christian heritage'.
Marr's colleague John Humphrys, who presents Radio 4's Today programme and TV's Mastermind, also said he would continue to use AD and BC.
He said: 'I will continue to use AD and BC because I don't see a problem. They are terms which most people use and are clearly understood.'
Historian Simon Schama, who has presented several programmes for the BBC, said: 'As a Jew I don't have any problems with AD or BC.
But CE and BCE are used frequently in Jewish circles. I have been familiar with them since the Fifties, so it's not like the BBC have just made them up.'
The BBC, meanwhile, insisted they had 'not issued editorial guidance on the date systems.'
The Corporation added: 'Both AD and BC, and CE and BCE are widely accepted date systems and the decision on which term to use lies with individual production and editorial teams.'

Royal Dutch Shell reportedly testing the waters for its $30 billion divestiture plan.
Most of the assets are located in the North Sea.
What will potential buyers be looking at?
Weak selling environment could result in company retaining some assets.
Gary Bourgeault: May 19, 2016 5:35 PM ET
After its $54 billion acquisition of BG Group, Royal Dutch Shell Plc (NYSE:RDS.A) (NYSE:RDS.B) had its credit rating cut after the huge increase in debt. Now it has reportedly entered into talks with interested parties in order to raise about $30 billion from the sale of assets, according to Bloomberg, citing sources not wanting to be identified.
The report said the bulk of the assets in question are from the BG acquisition, with the majority of the assets located in the high-cost North Sea region. In March, other unidentified people said Shell was also shopping assets in India and Trinidad and Tobago, along with the U.S. pipelines.

hair HOT CROSSED BUN (REMIX) post/photos/design: Kristin Ess Lately I've noticed lots of emails coming in with requests for shoulder-length hair tutorials. And while this tutorial is nothing different than the braided bun from last week, I wanted to show you just how do-able these tutorials are even if you don't have long hair. We always want everyone to have a fair shot at looking gorgeous and just because it's done on a girl with longer hair doesn't mean you shouldn't give it a try! The best part about any hair tutorial is modifying it and making it your own, right? I love when people tweet us a picture of a tutorial they tried where they added their own twist. It may not come out exactly the same, but it could sprout inspiration for something really cute! So let me show you how to get the "Hot Crossed Bun" look on short hair… Use a 1″ barrell curling iron to give the hair some wave when you're trying to do an updo or chignon on short or fine hair. This will give it texture and bulk it up so you have more to work with. Add a little water-based texturizing pomade to the root for even more visible texture and bulk. You can see that her fine hair looks full in this photo, right? Now you have something to work with! Split the hair right behind your ears and push the front sections forward. Take the whole middle section/back and put it in a clear elastic. Wrap that into a little mini or messy bun. Just see what your hair will do. Every short haircut will do something a little different. If you need to add some hairspray to help, go for it! We did. Now do an inside-out french braid from the hair line back toward the bun. It's okay if little pieces pop out. You can pin them at the end. Tuck the ends of the braid into the bun and secure it using a bobbypin or two or three. Repeat the previous braid on the other side and pin it into the bun as well. Pull some soft pieces out around the hair line for a more romantic vibe. Then pin in and spray any little unwanted pieces that might pop out. GIVE IT A TRY! xo-thebeautydepartment.com I cannot wait to try this one out! ~Hannah~

Hair Ideas, Hair Styles, Hair Beauty, Heat Curls, Hairstyle, Curling Iron
Encouraging Your Natural Curls Beach waves without a curling iron can be encouraged with an Epsom salt solution. Prepare a solution from ½ tablespoon of your regular hair conditioner, 1 tablespoon of dissolved lavender Epsom salt and ½ tablespoon of dissolved salt. Apply to damp hair and let it air dry.
I love this! I've done it and it's great as a quick hairstyle and fun way to curl your hair!

60 Second Sock Bun: 1. Pull your hair into a high pony. 2. Cut the toe off a sock and roll it into a donut-like shape. Slip it around your hair. 3. Tuck the ends of your hair under the fabric so it stays put. 4. As if you were rolling your sleeves, roll your hair and the sock together down your ponytail. 5. Tuck in any stray hairs, then spritz on some hair spray to help hold the style and tame flyaways.

Not many guys could drive a 1966 seafoam green Volkswagon Microbus, dubbed "Jake's Love Bus," and still look cool. And yet, Jake Owen pulls it off.In the video for Owen's new tune "American Country Love Song," he hopped in an iconic vintage bus and went on a road trip from Nashville to Key West."The song is about feeling young and free," Owen tells PEOPLE. "I've done videos before where there's a bunch of people standing around putting make-up on me and I don't think of that as being free. I wanted the all-American road trip."The new video concept: Drive, have fun and take it all in. "I thought why don't I just get in a van with the director and take some good friends and hit the road and see what happens?" says Owen."I've gone through a lot in the last couple years," says Owen, 34. "And it was nice to just literally drive 55 miles an hour in the right-hand lane, which was as fast as we could go, not be in a hurry, and along the way see what happens... Stop places, play music, eat some good food and talk to people."
Country Music legend, Merle Haggard, passed away on his 69th birthday yesterday, and Jake paid tribute to him during a Facebook LIve session from his home in Nashville. Check out the video below.
Merle Haggard Tribute from my kitchen.. #24LivePosted by Jake Owen on Thursday, April 7, 2016
Today, iHeart Media hosts the world premiere of Jake Owen's much-anticipated new single,
"American Country Love Song."
Jake has described the song, written by Ross Copperman, Ashley Gorley and Jaren Johnston, as having "the feeling of freedom and being young and adventurous. It is a broad-spectrum glance in a three-minute song that describes a couple of kids living that American country love song. It's also a much larger celebration of the love story that is America itself, from cowboys and cowgirls to cheerleaders and quarterbacks in small towns and big cities. It's the thought of, 'Hey, let's raise our glasses to the fact that we are all one in the same.' Wherever you live in this country, we are basically living one big American country love song."
Love is a common theme throughout Jake's forthcoming album and that is what inspired him to purchase a 1966 Volkswagen bus, which he has dubbed the "Love Bus." He decided on Monday that he is going drive 1000 + miles from Nashville to Key West, Fla., beginning Saturday, March 5 to share the love and new music. Fans can follow his progress through Instagram & Twitter (@jakeslovebus) He will also invite fans to meet up with him along the route, which will be revealed soon.
I have always wanted to do this. Let's load up in this thing and take a road trip and see where it takes us and document the things that happen along the way. It goes right in line with the song.
The purpose is to see firsthand that the lyrics of the single are real, whether you live in a big city or a small town. I want to be able to show that what I am singing about in this song is exactly what is happening on a day-to-day basis in America.
My goal at this point in my life is to promote positivity and love. When I stop in a town and visit with people, they will realize that I am not just talking the talk, but I am walking the walk. We all need more positivity in our lives. I'm ready to bring it.
-Jake Owen

Weekend of NCEA Competition Begins Thursday in Alabama
RELEASE: February 13, 2013
AUTHOR/ADMINISTRATOR: Andrew Minnick
There wasn't a whole lot of NCEA team competition last week (many teams took the week off while they were represented at the
WEF Collegiate Equitation Challenge
), but some top teams are back in action this weekend. Check below for my take on each of the NCEA Matchups that'll be happening in the coming days.
No.2 Auburn University vs. No.4 South Carolina University
South Carolina heads to Auburn to try and rein in a reeling season. Working with three straight losses, and coming off their first SEC loss, South Carolina looks to regain the form that made them the top team in nation only a few months ago. The Gamecocks, who were 4-0 on November 16th, need a win to keep themselves above .500. But for the second match in a row they will have to fend off a motivated conference foe that they beat during the fall season.
"I know they are coming off of a few losses of late," Auburn head coach Greg Williams told
, "and will ride hard to change that here, but we have a strong roster of riders lined up for Thursday that should deliver some huge rides."
The Tigers have been doing just enough to win lately (8-7 over Fresno State and 7-5 over Kansas State two weeks ago), but they have been winning, and Thursday is their final regular season home meet, so they'll be even more motivated. Both teams will return to Auburn in March for the SEC Championship.
No.6 Baylor University vs. No.10 Southern Methodist University
Last weekend the SMU team was given a lift by Freshman Schaefer Raposa, who won the WEF Collegiate Equitation Challenge. They'll be back at it as a team on Saturday to take on in-state rival Baylor in a Hunter Seat only competition. At 5-2 this competition year, SMU's Hunter Seat team is no joke, and they haven't lost yet at home. But Baylor is coming off a loss to another in-state rival, TCU, so there is pride as well as record at stake here.
No.8 Texas Christian University vs. Fresno State University
As has been true all season, Fresno State is not backing away from a challenge. They head to Fort Worth, TX to take on the Horned Frogs Friday and hope to finally add a tick to their win column. The 0-6 Bulldogs haven't won at all this competition year, but they're a tough team and TCU shouldn't overlook them.
No.3 Oklahoma State University vs. Fresno State University
If the bulldogs can't pull off the upset Friday, their chances don't get a whole better on Saturday when they travel to Stillwater, OK. The Cowgirls just jumped into the No.3 spot in the coaches poll and with Baylor, TCU, South Carolina, and Kansas State upcoming on the schedule, they'll be looking to keep up their momentum.

Academaze will come out on June 15! Pre-0rders will likely start on May 31st! Of course, I will share all the information here.
Today was a very busy day, plus a day of the monster headache… So nothing serious on the blog tonight.
The book will be under the pseudonym Sydney Phlox. (My publisher recommended I pick a pseudonym that sounds like a real name, so xykademiqz was out.)
I knew that I wanted a gender-neutral first name, so Riley and Sydney were at the top of my list. Why? I simply like them. Also, I am in a male-dominated field and I never write my first name on papers if I can help it, it's always just first-name initial. If I can avoid being mentally downgraded before the referee gets to the abstract, I consider it a small victory. This is not me being paranoid. I know at least one female NAS member who swears by the same approach, which has served her well for decades. Besides, J.K. Rowling is J.K., and not Joanne for the same reason — people dismiss female writers as, you know, female. If you can get readers to give you a benefit of the doubt enough to read the book synopsis, that's a small victory as well. (Not that I can write or sell books as well as J.K. Rowling.)
Besides, I really like my real first name, but I can' use it. And if I can't use it, why not be named like an awesome city?
[Edit: I can't believe I forgot Sydney Bristow!]
The blog theme is black an purple, so for a little while I thought it should be Lily Black or something similar. Then I decided to google possible names of different shades of the color purple.
Phlox jumped out as the best last-name contender of the bunch! [I didn't want to be amethyst, fuchsia, or patriarch (!)] I urge you to look at the different names for greens, blues, blacks, etc. — it's fascinating!
Anyway, this is my last name:
Phlox is also a common flower:
Aaaaaand, last but not least, Phlox is a character from Star Trek: Enterprise!
Purple perfection!
This one was inspired by a recent conversation in my group meeting.
Generally, the outcome of a review of a manuscript in the physical sciences is one of the following options (I am sure it's basically the same in the biological and social sciences, and maybe even in the humanities, but I have no direct experience):
a) Accept as is
b) Reconsider with minor revisions
c) Reconsider with major revisions
d) Reject
Some journals offer further subtypes, such as "Accept with optional revisions" vs "Reconsider with mandatory revisions (minor)" vs "Reconsider with mandatory revisions (major)". Some offer options to the referee such as "I don't need to see the paper again" or "I need to see the paper again." But these are all nuances.
Reviews are advisory to the editor. Again, reviews are advisory to the editor. Whether the review is positive or negative, write it so that the editor can understand what has governed your decision.
Option a), "Accept as is," never happens after the first review unless the referee doesn't give a toss. (It's okay to "Accept as is" after the first or second revision.) As an associate editor, when I get an adulatory but shallow one-liner after the first review, "This paper is great, publish as is," I roll my eyes. Such a report is completely useless. It offers me no advice, other than the advice that you as a reviewer didn't take your job very seriously. Don't be that reviewer. If you like a paper, your one-liner will not help against a scathing three-page report of another referee who hated the manuscript. If you really like the paper, give the authors something they can use to fight for it.
The outcome of a first review is somewhere between b) and d).
When do you choose "Reconsider/accept with minor revisions"?
When you generally like the paper and its conclusion. You think the study is correct, the figures are clear, the conclusions are supported by the data, and the paper is written well. You were able to follow what they did and how, and you have enough information to determine that the technique is appropriate and correctly applied. The minor revisions are usually: missing relevant references (a small number), minor instances of unfortunate wording, some minor tangents that would be interesting to address as they link the paper to the broader field in a way the authors didn't consider, clarifications in the title or abstract or intro, other clarifications of specific pieces or wording or details in the technique (experimental conditions, theoretical parameters), minor corrections to the figures (e.g., recommendation to choose different colors for better contrast in a 3D plot). Basically, the paper would not be awful to be published "as is" but it could be improved to full awesomeness with edits that are not overly time-consuming.
When do you choose "Reconsider with major revisions" vs "Reject"?
Is there plagiarism/duplication of work? If yes, reject, and provide references where the overlapping work has appeared.
Is the paper topically inappropriate for the journal? If yes, then reject, and explain briefly why it doesn't fit (these are often caught by the editors, so the paper is desk-rejected).
Is the paper not hot enough for the highfalutin journal? If the answer is affirmative, then reject, but please please explain why you think so. A negative one-line review is just as useless as a positive one. The editor can't do much with your "gut feeling" that the paper is not cool enough for the journal, especially if that's your only reason to reject the paper. (Unfortunately, what the gut of famous Prof. Greybeard has to say seems to have more weight than in the case of younger folks). Your gut feeling should in principle be translatable into human speech, such as: all the references are old and there are no new ones, so this work is not timely enough for this journal; most of the references, especially recent ones and/or the ones with similar work, have been published in this other journal instead; the results are straightforward extension of published work and thus of very limited novelty; the results require unrealistic parameters or only occur under a very narrow set of conditions and are thus likely not robust, etc. [see comments for differences among fields]
Are the methods without a doubt inappropriate to address the problem at hand? Then reject. But if the method is one of several and is just not what you would use, that's not a good enough reason alone to reject the work. Different methods have different strengths and often reveal different facets of the same phenomenon.
Now we come to the tough region.
Is the paper correct? Are the methods appropriate? Is it timely? Is it interesting? Does it present something novel about the world that is not obvious?
If the answer to all these questions is yes, then ask yourself if you can envision this paper being edited so as to become publishable. What would the authors have to do, specifically, to make it suitable for publication?
Does the language need considerable attention? Is the discussion of the techniques/methods unclear? Are the conclusions unclear? Can you write down what specifically is unclear?
If the answer is that you just hate all of the paper, that it's boring or just awfully written, or that there are comprehensive, pervasive changes in every aspect, then please reject outright and try to explain ghat the paper is far from publishable form and that you cannot imagine it becoming publishable within the span of 1-2 revisions, that it would essentially have to become a completely different paper instead because of simultaneous issues with presentation, conclusions, figures, etc. It is much better to reject outright than to 1) torture yourself to try to list all the things that are wrong, 2) make the authors spend a lot of time entering those edits, only to 3) find out that even after all these edits you still think the paper is awful. Rejecting a paper because of pervasive issues is a kindness. For instance, imagine if you were to submit a first draft of paper written by a second-year graduate student. These drafts usually require extensive edits and the advisor has to make several (many?) layers of corrections in order for it to become suitable to unleash upon the world. Similarly, there is no point in wasting the time of multiple referees "editing by peer review" something that's as far from publishable as an early draft of a newbie student.
So when do you say, "Reconsider with major revisions"? When you can envision a finite number of specific things that the paper needs in order to become publishable. Imagine receiving the paper with those revisions perfectly incorporated; if you would then have no problem accepting the paper, then that's major revisions. Major revisions usually include: significant gaps in cited literature, missing data/figure(s) in order to support a conclusion, missing critical information that prevents a reader from following the exposition or assessing the correctness of the approach, poorly written abstract or conclusion.
How do you write a useful review?
Start with a 2–3-sentence-long paragraph (Hyphen happy! Technically, the first one is a dash.) in which you state, in your own words, what the paper is about, how the authors do what they do, and what the main findings are. This helps show the authors and the editor that you have understood the paper.
[edited] Then say clearly, in a single-sentence paragraph, what your position on the faith of the paper is. Do you feel it's generally great, but have minor suggestions for improvement or minor but required edits? Do you think it's inappropriate for publication in the present form, but expect it to become publishable if the authors satisfactorily address the specific problems outlined below? Or do you think the paper is simply not appropriate for publication in This Journal for reasons that are deal-breakers, and concisely explained?
If your are disposed towards rejecting, make sure you state why in a few sentences or a couple of numbered items/paragraphs.
If there are major issues with the paper, give a numbered list of major issues that the authors should address. Be specific about what you want them to do. Remember, if you are a good referee, this should be like a contract: if they do what you ask, you will recommend acceptance. Don't be that douche who keeps moving the target and asking for new and varied things in subsequent reviews. Follow up by a list of minor concerns, like the typos you caught, unfortunate wording, missing units, etc.
If you have identified minor or optional revisions, list them also in a numbered list. If something is optional to consider and you do not require that the authors comply, but just to seriously consider it, then say so.
Happy reviewing!
(See the comments for some differences between fields, and of course your own advisor is the best guide for what the practices are in the field your work in.)

My husband (DH) and I don't communicate much during the work day, and when we do it's usually via text messages. Mostly we discuss child pickup or dinner plans, but it can often turn hilarious. Fair warning: Considering that we spend a lot of time around small children, it's not a particularly highbrow kind of hilarity. Here are a few snippets; expect some swearing and typos.
This one is from a few days ago, Friday. DH picked up the kids and got pizza, as I worked a little later than usual.
This one is from a few months ago, as DH was installing Windows 10 (he's among the brave early adopters).

Clarissa's post "Provincialism" gave me much food for thought. She used to be a big-city person, but now fears she's become provincial because she is dreading traffic, crowds, and noise in the big city where she used to live and that she's about to visit with her husband and baby.
I grew up and spent much of my youth in a big city. The apartment where I grew up was on a major street, with a busy bus stop right below. I spent years riding overcrowded public transport. I have smelled enough unwashed armpits for five lifetimes. Having various body parts of strangers shoved in your face and pressed all over you in scorching 100-degree weather on a bus without airconditioning was just way of life. In a part of my childhood, my parents and my sister and I shared one bedroom in a three-bedroom apartment; my aunt and her daughter were in another, and my maternal parents in the third bedroom. Later, the aunt moved out so I just shared a room with my sister. Whenever my parents and I we would travel anywhere, we'd stay with friends or relatives. I always shared rooms and beds with mother, sister, grandma, cousin, someone. On a daily basis, we always had to be mindful of neighbors and not make too much noise. There were people everywhere, all the time, always around, and they all had to be considered, all the time.
When I moved to the States I thought I'd, of course, always live in a big city in an apartment. Why, that's the only way to live, and nothing else will do!
Only now I own a big house in a suburb and I drive a car, and I love both the house and the car as fiercely as you can love inanimate objects that make you very, very happy. I am never moving to a big city, where all the people are. *shudder*
One of the best things about living like I do now — in a big house, with lots and lots of space — is how calm and comfortable I feel. I also love driving, it's one of my favorite activities. If I were to never ride public transport again in my life, I would be totally okay with that. When I travel, I thankfully have enough money to never have to stay with anyone and can go to a hotel and have my space. (Now if only I could do that when I go visit my parents; my mom would never forgive me is I stayed anywhere but with her, even though I am totally putting her out when I do.) A dear colleague recently offered that I stay with him and his family at an upcoming conference. I just can't. That's too much togetherness. I need to be able to go to my hotel room and unwind all by myself.
Perhaps this makes me provincial, but I don't think that's the right term. Would a curmudgeon fit better? I still enjoy theater and concerts as much as ever, probably more than before because now with kids it's always such a treat to go out. There is more to do here than we are able to pull off due to work and family obligations, and I don't think I have become less worldly simply by living in a comfortable house.
Mostly, I never knew just how much I needed space and how much the perpetual intrusion of other people in a big city really bugged me until I got some space. Now that I know what it feels like to have some and to be left alone, I just can't take the crowds any more. Air travel also bothers me more and more, because it's so uncomfortable and so crowded; we are packed tightly like sardines. I have traveled extensively all my life, so travel logistics don't faze me; really, it's mostly all the darn people. I think I am also getting more introverted with age, in that time around people exhausts me much more than it used to even when I nominally enjoy it.
But will this lifestyle make my kids provincial? Perhaps. Almost certainly so, I'd say. But there's something to be said for not being squished between strangers in public transport on a daily basis, at least not until the kids go to college. After that, the crowds of the world await them.
There is a whole genre of books and movies that could be termed "deep and meaningful stuff coming out of random people's lives intersecting by chance." Sometimes they are well done, but as a concept they are not longer new. To me, the epitome of the genre is the movie "Crash" circa 2004. A cool IMDB list called "Multiple-Storyline Films" collects many examples, among them some excellent movies such as Short Cuts, Night on Earth, Pulp Fiction, Amores Perros, and Babel.
We all meet many people throughout our lives. A few we call family, some more we call friends or colleagues, but the vast majority are people whose lives cross but never really intertwine with ours. Sure, I can imagine a skilled movie director making something out of a mundane interaction between a grocery store clerk and a patron (or, say, between a department store clerk and a patron), but for most of us such interactions are barely noticeable and don't really add color to the daily routine.
But there is a group of people with whom most of us interact a significant amount as adults; we intrude upon each other's private lives, yet we are seldom friends.
They are the parents of our kids' friends. They are the people whom we text when we need our kid picked up or dropped off someplace and we can't make it. They are the people who have our precious babies in their care for hours on end, sometimes even overnight. Then the kids grow up or their friendships fade, and the parents fade out of our lives, too. Sometimes we like them, sometimes we don't really, but we trust them with the most valuable of all our riches.
They travel a really important part of our lives right alongside us and provide real, tangible support. They also share their wonderful kids with us, and their kids make our own family seem bigger and warmer. And then they part ways with us.
Happy trails, fellow parents. Thanks for the playdates and the sleepovers and the snacks and the chauffeuring. Thanks for your hospitality and your warmth. May your kids grow up to be all that they can be.

Why do you have a problem with people receiving GOV assistants but not corporations?

corporations are owned by people so it makes no real difference.
Anonymous Coward 271y14781
Actually it makes a real difference to the destitute and disabled folks who receive government assistance, such as it is. They get a tiny pittance each month - not enough to actually live decently, often not even enough to scrape by - but every little bit helps. These subsidies are often the last "firewall" between people and homelessness, starvation, and/or death.
The huge corporate welfare pigs (Oil, Big Ag, Finance, Defense, Pharma) get millions, sometimes billions, that are most definitely not a "firewall" keeping them from going out of business. It's just extra government pork gravy to them.
A lot of the people on this board are racists, misogynists, homophobes, religious zealots, etc. And a large number of them aim their hate at the specific demographic groups that are more likely to be destitute and relying upon government assistance. They would enjoy seeing this population starve and die, homeless in the streets. They use hateful urban legend/myths like the people on food stamps eating t-bone steaks all the time and the so-called welfare queens driving Cadillacs to help fuel their hate, even though they are fantasy.
I was on food stamps once, for a short time. It was only enough to buy oatmeal, peanut butter, rice, beans, mac & cheese, and once a week a can of salmon or tuna fish, if you were lucky. Not exactly eating high on the hog, like the corporate welfare queens do. More like leftover chitlins.

'The truth is still out there': Outgoing top Obama aide John Podesta reveals his biggest regret from 2014 was his failure to disclose UFO files
- Friday marked John Podesta's last day as President Obama's counselor
- he tweeted top 10 list of his triumphs and failures from his year-long stint at the White House
- In a 2002 speech, Podesta said that American people can handle the truth about aliens
President Obama's outgoing counselor John Podesta has revealed that his biggest regret in 2014 was his failure to disclose the truth about the existence of UFOs.
On Friday, Podesta marked the conclusion of his latest stint at the White House by listing on Twitter his top 10 triumphs and failures from the past year.
Among his high points, the 66-year-old law professor listed taking a ride in a NASCAR vehicle, hosting a famous chef at his home, as well as a few more serious accomplishments: the expansion of the Pacific Remote Islands Monument to twice the size of Texas, the first-ever proposal to limit carbon pollution and significant progress on climate change.

A serious man: President Obama's outgoing counselor John Podesta has revealed that his biggest regret in 2014 was his failure to disclose the truth about the existence of UFOs
Top 10 list: Podesta marked the conclusion of his year-long stint at the White House by listing on Twitter his top triumphs and failures from 2014
The presidential counselor also had a couple of low points in 2014, including being defeated in a 12K race by White House Chief of Staff Denis McDonough, who is 20 years his junior.
But nothing exasperated Podesta more than keeping Americans in the dark about extra-terrestrials.
'Finally, my biggest failure of 2014: Once again not securing the #disclosure of the UFO files.'
The tweet was accompanied by the hashtag #thetruthisstilloutthere - a play on the famous tagline from the TV show The X-Files.
Podesta, a married father of three who served as Bill Clinton's final White House chief of staff for four years in the 1990s, has long been fascinated with aliens.
During a 2002 press conference hosted by the Coalition for Freedom of Information, Podesta declared: 'It's time to find out what the truth really is that's out there, reported Yahoo News.
'We ought to do it, quite frankly, because the American people can handle the truth.'
Right-hand man: President Obama brought on Podesta a year ago after the disastrous rollout of his health care law
Special interest: The 66-year-old law professor's fascination with UFOs has been well-documented
In 2010, John Podesta wrote an introduction for the book UFOs: Generals, Pilots, and Government Officials Go On the Record.
Now that he is back in the private sector, Podesta is expected to take the reins of Hillary Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign.
While shepherding the president's climate change agenda and shaping his strategy for dealing with a Republican-led Congress, Podesta has also been involved in nearly every key conversation with Clinton on campaign hires and her burgeoning organization, as well as the timing of a formal announcement of her candidacy.
Obama brought on Podesta after the disastrous rollout of his health care law. Several current and former White House officials said Podesta – regarded by many as an alder statesman - quickly injected more depth into strategy discussions and would often play devil's advocate, pushing the team to consider things not on their radar.
New boss: Podesta is expected to take the reins of Hillary Clinton's (right) 2016 presidential campaign
Podesta also ingratiated himself with Obama's team, particularly younger aides. An avid cook – his specialty is Italian, including risotto and biscotti – he would invite staffers to his home in Northwest Washington for celebratory dinners after finishing big projects.
On Friday, Podesta tweeted that his biggest culinary feat last year was hosting a dinner for New York Times food columnist Mark Bittman and senior presidential adviser on nutrition policy Sam Kass.
'I let them mince herbs for the risotto. They didn't screw up,' he quipped.
