Two weeks ago I attended a lecture at Grand Valley State University (GVSU) by Jonathan Haidt, author, among many other books and articles, of the book The Righteous Mind: Why Good People are Divided by Politics and Religion. Haidt is a social psychologist whose research focuses on the emotive and anthropological bases of morality. His talk at GVSU for their Hauenstein Center for Presidential Studies and Business Ethics Center, focused mostly on the question of the roots of our political divides in the United States and how to move our public discourse in a more civil direction. (more…)
Whenever there is a mass shooting, inevitably there is a rush by public officials, celebrities, and media talking heads to demand further restrictions on gun ownership. Truthfully, both sides of the firearm debate are guilty of politicizing these tragedies, as people race to media outlets to declare that their side played no role or responsibility for the action of the assailant. Many gun owners and their supporters reflexively react to the accusations. Despite the media's relentless focus on violent shootings, Second Amendment support is surging. Americans are purchasing more guns than ever before. Concealed permit holders and applicants across the country are on the rise too. Most states outside of the Northeast are relaxing their restrictions on firearms not tightening them. When it comes to self-government, no issue is succeeding in America like firearm ownership and the right to carry.
Why is the argument to restrict firearms so ineffective? With each tragedy many pundits and politicians try to link the millions of law abiding gun owners to the violence and tragedy. If citizens didn't have access to firearms, there would be no tragedy, so the argument goes. But they are not linked at all. They are unrelated. The moral deficiency in the argument is glaring. Most Americans realize it's too far of a leap to connect the millions and millions of lawful and safe firearm owners to people with severe mental illnesses and psychological problems. The attempt by so many to link these two groups of people together is ineffective, rings hollow, and comes off as offensive. They are not and never will be morally equivalent agents in our society.
It's actually the morality of millions of law abiding citizens who choose to exercise their Constitutional gun rights that are undoing and crippling the arguments of those calling for restrictions and gun bans. That's why morality is so effective and essential for self-government. And when it comes to morality and exercising rights, those who want to limit government intrusion and promote self-government can learn learn a lot from gun owners.
Anthony Weiner did not win the Democratic Party primary for New York City last night. Leading in the polls at one time, he ended up with 5 percent of the vote. His defiant and circus like campaign appropriately ended with more bizarre theatrics. In a scolding interview, Weiner was called out for his political power addiction recently by Lawrence O'Donnell of MSNBC. Though O'Donnell sees no need to call him out for his moral behavior and personally he doesn't feel it is a hindrance for supporting Weiner, it's the prime reason for Weiner's collapse in support.
That Weiner really had no shame or misgivings about the extent to which he was willing to embarrass himself and his family says something about his lust for political power and relevance. If you take away the platform for his power, his entourage, the attention he receives, strip him of those things, he is just another common man laid low by sin and addiction. That's really the correct answer to O'Donnell's question that is never answered truthfully.
In another recent video clip, where an outraged Jewish voter confronts Weiner about his moral bankruptcy, we again see the depth of his inability to be shamed and get a deeper look at his defense of that behavior. It's the false notion that pervades much of our society today, that Americans are not allowed to make moral judgements about people and their behavior.
While there are many good and morally straight citizens in public service, I suspect Weiner is more towards the norm than many of us might like to believe. As the culture rots, and accountability wanes, society will reflect the corrupting nature of the world. But we notice it less because spiritual blindness intensifies society's moral blindness.
We are bombarded by a lot of articles and blogs today, many times from the political right, demanding moral outrage for one issue or the other, but there is so little moral outrage left in our society to give. There was enough in New York City to end Anthony Weiner's quest for more power and more attention and political relevance. But we can easily point to hundreds of examples that reflect the opposite. Weiner's sad and bizarre campaign is his own doing, but it also says something profound about the corrupting and addicting nature of power and the people entrusted as the watchmen over that power.
That's the conclusion Wesley J. Smith, J.D., Senior Fellow at the Discovery Institute, has come to. The surrogacy business in India is booming. While statistics are hard to come by, according to one estimate, surrogacy brings in more than $2 billion a year to India. That does not translate to much money for the surrogate mothers, however. Women are paid about $8,000 for their medical expenses and having a baby. However, since it is typically poor women, many of whom are illiterate, that are targeted for surrogacy, many sign contracts they do not understand. India has few laws governing surrogacy, so the women have little or no rights. It is a situation ripe for abuse. (more…)
Lord Acton once said of the American revolution: "No people was so free as the insurgents, no government less oppressive than the government which they overthrew." It was America's high view of liberty and its ideas that cultivated this unprecedented freedom ripe for flourishing. Colonists railed over 1 and 2 percent tax rates and were willing to take up arms in a protracted and bloody conflict to secure independence and self-government.
In a chapter on Lord Acton in The Moral Imagination: From Adam Smith to Lionel Trilling, Gertrude Himmelfarb explains how Acton was a historian who saw moral absolutes, and these were the same absolutes Lord Acton found in America's Framers.
In America, there is certainly a great dearth of moral clarity in today's political culture and really most of society. I think a large segment of our population certainly feels aimless and fatigued over the trajectory of not just the political debate, but where our nation is headed. As a country that is losing its history, many thirst for a return to first principles and away from the kind of relativistic rot which has become the status quo. Below is an excerpt from Himmelfarb's book which discusses Lord Acton's view on the American Revolution:
Although the first tentative overtures toward freedom came in ancient and medieval times, only in modernity, Acton claimed, did it emerge in its true nature. English Protestant sects in the seventeenth-century discovered that "religious liberty is the generating principle of civil, and that civil liberty is the necessary condition of religious." But not until the American Revolution had "men sought liberty knowing what they sought." Unlike earlier experiments in liberty, which had been tainted by expediency, compromise, and interest, the Americans demanded liberty simply and purely as a right. The three-pence tax that provoked the revolution was three-pence worth of pure principle. "I will freely spend nineteen shillings in the pound, Acton quoted Benjamin Franklin, "to defend my right of giving or refusing one other shilling." Acton himself went further. The true liberal, like the American revolutionists, "stakes his life, his fortune, the existence of his family, not to resist the intolerable reality of oppression, but the remote possibility of wrong, of diminished freedom." The American Constitution was unique in being both democratic and liberal. "It was democracy in its highest perfection, armed and vigilant, less against aristocracy and monarchy than against its own weakness and excess. . . . It resembled no other known democracy, for it respected freedom, authority, and law."
Douglas Wilson has an interesting take on Detroit's bankruptcy: "like a drunk trying to make it to the next lamp post." Why this analogy? Wilson says we first have to understand that Detroit is inevitably in a defaulting situation; the question now is what kind of default.
The only thing we don't know is what kind of default it will be. The only thing we don't know is who the unlucky victim of our defaulting will be.
Government does not make wealth. If government has wealth, then this means it was taken. The only way that the government can acquire the means to pay its obligations and debts is by taking it. The only question left before the house is "who will they take it from?"
In a sermon to the class of 1864, Williams College President Mark Hopkins addressed the intimate and inevitable relationship between character and destiny, "Settle it therefore, I pray you, my hearers, once and forever, that as your character is, so will your destiny be."
Within the academy, this basic prescription for earthly happiness, says Lewis M. Andrews, reigned supreme for almost three centuries, from Harvard's founding in 1636 until the early twentieth century.
The typical centerpiece of the moral curriculum was a seminar, taught by the college president, that took up most of the senior year for undergraduate students and was designed to show them how to apply their newly acquired knowledge within a Christian context. University presidents of all denominations focused on the importance of good character and the dangers of vice and immorality.
Problems that are now thought of, at least to some extent, as mental health conditions — depression, discouragement, fear, loneliness, self-doubt, addiction, anxiety — were viewed in large part as consequences of the moral character of the students. Pursuing vengeance will depress us; a willingness to tell white lies leaves us anxious; manipulating others makes us lonely; and guilt can only be assuaged through some form of amends or atonement. Conversely, the college presidents taught their students that the proper application of moral and spiritual principles would enable them to build character and lead emotionally fulfilled and happy lives. While these principles were consistent with Christian theology, and their teaching often drew from the Books of Psalms and Proverbs, or the parables of Jesus, they were reinforced with similar observations by classical philosophers, such as Plato, Aristotle, Cicero, and Plotinus.
But students learned also that even though adherence to moral principles leads to real happiness, the immediate pleasures or advantages that come from compromising one's values can blind us to how such actions often leave us miserable and unhappy in the end. Everybody is tempted to believe that some things are so worth having that unethical choices are justified to achieve them. By an act of great self-deception, the perceived gains overshadow the real losses.
Andrews explains how these university presidents were pioneers of what we would now call mental health care, and why the history of spiritually based therapy is largely unknown:

Did anyone notice that big old nasty Aniline moiety hanging off solithromycin? anilines are known as liver killers...bromphenac and Tylenol are just couple that pop to mind...However in Tylenol's case anilines are produced when 70% of glutathione is used getting this poison out of your system. anyway, I want to see the liver data on cemp's drug before I pile in. TZD is best drug in this space...hands down.
Now we enter the shakeout and wear down phase of our tsrx journey, don't getting shaken out, this is a 20 dollar stock... no question.
Okay to nix Solithromycin, a hand grenade for one's liver but what's Cemp's other drug Taksta looking like? So far this fusidic acid based drug is only comparable, not better than linezolid in phase 2 results and develops resistance with less optimal initial dosing. So far TZD leads the race in this space.
yes...on the surface of it fusidic acid looks comparable but only in phase 2...Phase 2 studies only use small hand picked populations...when this goes into phase 3 I would not be at all surprised to see it fall short against LZD and far shy of TZD. Besides Fusidic acid has known liver toxicity and apparently you cannot take it with statins because of fatal rhabdomyelysis. TZD is safe all around.
And Resistance is readily acquired when fusidic acid is used alone and commonly develops during the course of treatment. As with most other antibiotics, resistance to fusidic acid arises less frequently when used in combination with other drugs(=more side effects)...Again TZD wins....now that TZD can be combined with Cubicin for MRSA and Bacteremia....please... cempra has no chance of beating Trius.
What type animal are you? I am a TEDdy bear that is bullish on TSRX. Anilines; a free one is like chucking a hand-grenade into the mix, yikes!
Sentiment: Strong Buy
show me the ALT and AST numbers...don't just tell me its efficacious and side effects are mild to moderate...I don't want mild to moderate liver damage...do you? show me the numbers.
Gracias amigo.

This is sort of about basketball, but mostly about not basketball. Dion Waiters and the Oklahoma City Thunder played against the Cavaliers in Cleveland on Sunday.

I was very pleased with the golf divot tool. We used it as a give away for a golf fundraiser and it was big hit. Great quality product that I would highly recommend. Pete was awesome to deal with all through the process.
We were very pleased with the quality and imprint of the divot tool and ball marker. It made a great gift and we would not hesitate to order them again in the future.
The quality of the divot tool and the customer service is excellent. The logo imprinting could've been improved. It would've looked better with black etching instead of the gold on the silver background.

P.S. 217 Colonel David Marcus School
BROOKLYN NY 11230 Map
P.S. 217 Colonel David Marcus School
Extended PK hours offered: No
What's special:
The downside:
Our review:
PS 217 is a large, popular neighborhood school with a strong arts focus and a multi-ethnic group of children who speak 23 languages. The administration welcomes parents and takes their suggestions seriously--whether it's a request for a salad bar in the cafeteria or after school chess classes.
The school offers rich drama, music and art classes. Children put on two plays a year, with scripts the school librarian adapts from children's books including Alice in Wonderland, Pinocchio, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe. When the federal magnet grant that paid for the arts expired, parents stepped in to raise money to make sure the programs continued. Art classes may include animation and filmmaking; children may play the recorder, sing or learn to play percussion instruments in music.
The building is clean and well maintained, with spotless bathrooms, and a well-equipped computer lab and a dedicated science room. The large, attractive library is open to both parents and students at 8 a.m., so children who don't have computers at home can work.
Children appeared to be at ease and happy on our visit. There is plenty of time for free play, including outdoor recess. Teachers encourage children to take fitness breaks in class, called "Move to Improve," to relieve any restlessness they might experience and to help them make a smooth transition from one activity to the next.
The student population is both racially and economically mixed: Children walk to school from modest apartment buildings and grand Victorian houses. More than 250 children are learning English as a Second Language.
Franca Conti, principal since 2004 and an immigrant herself, is sensitive to children who are learning English. She favors hiring bilingual teachers whenever possible, and many of her teachers are immigrants as well.
The school has its own gifted and talented program, although it is not designated as such by the Department of Education. Children are placed in the gifted kindergarten class based on their score on the city's G&T exam; older children are placed according to their teachers recommendation.
The school's population has grown in recent years. Class sizes are rather large; 25 for kindergarten but about 30 for the other grades. There are three lunch periods, beginning at 10:30 a.m. There are vegetarian meals available as well as a salad bar that is manned by the older children. Children sometimes eat vegetables that they have grown in an outdoor garden.
An extensive after school program includes clubs in movement and exercise; puppets and marionette; American Sign Language; chess; singing and dancing; digital photography; aerobics; drama Club, Violin and Trumpet. Many of the clubs contribute to the two major performances the school produces per year. Some of the clubs are run by parents who are arts professionals.
Special education: The school offers team teaching, physical therapy, occupational therapy and speech therapy. There are two psychologists, a social worker and a family worker on staff. Vision and hearing teachers visit regularly. The school has an elevator and is barrier free, and it serves both physically handicapped children and those on the autism spectrum.
Admissions: Neighborhood school. The school offers tours for prospective parents and often has a few seats for children from outside the attendance zone. (Eliana Mascio, February 2013)

sump pump
We have an outside sump pump to take water away from the basement area. We have a generator, hooked to lp gas, which automatically kicks on in case of a power outage, so a power outage is not an issue. My concern is the pump motor itself will fail and I would like an indicator light or alarm so we can be aware of motor failure immediately. Is there something available?

Joining the 5D family
Hello, my new full-frame-friends (can I call you my FFF?),
I have joined your ranks. Many thanks to the kind posters who helped me with their opinions on my previous thread:
I now have a 5D Mark III, and I'm in love with it already. First photo outing is this Saturday.
I'm donating my 7D to a good cause (my brother); I'll miss the 7D, but I'll be happy knowing he's using it.
Meanwhile, everything about the 5DIII seems like an improvement already, even though I haven't been able to take pictures of anything more interesting than my cat so far. I'm looking forward to Saturday.

SUMNER — Ridgefield moved up to Class 2A soccer this season but found itself in the exact same spot as last year.
The Spudders lost to the Sedro-Woolley Cubs, 1-0, in the consolation game of the state tournament on Saturday at Sunset Chevrolet Stadium.
Ridgefield was shut out through the weekend and finished in fourth place — the same position it concluded last season while competing against the Class 1A field.
"We played really well at the beginning," senior midfielder Tanner Konkright said, "but we've never won a game here (in Sumner) so I don't think that helped us."
Ridgefield (18-5-1) tried to change its misfortune on this field by altering the starting lineup.
Sophomore Justin Stay got the nod in the net and made an impact through the first half by stopping several threats.
In the 33rd minute, Sedro-Woolley junior Kyle Witzel targeted the goal but Stay defended the shot well and covered up the ball. Also, within the final two minutes of the first half, Stay made a diving stop to his right for his second save.
With the teams locked in a scoreless tie after halftime, the Cubs finally broke through in the 66th minute. Sedro-Woolley forward Nef Camacho centered a pass to Witzel, who was streaking in from the left side and just found the corner of the net for the game-breaking goal.
"I thought it was a pretty even game," Ridgefield coach Jason Staley said. "They just finished a play. It's the way soccer is."
Sedro-Woolley, a school located approximately 60 miles from the Canadian border, completed its first trip to the state tournament with a 16-6-2 record.
After the game, Staley could praise his team's progress through the season. Ridgefield only has three seniors on roster — Konkright, Dalton Reis and Tyler Bocchi.
"It was a really successful season," Staley said. "We had fun and played well. The guys improved a lot and we were playing pretty well heading into this weekend."
Goals (assists) — Kyle Witzel (Nef Camacho). Goalkeeper saves — Michael Moser 7.
Goalkeeper saves — Justin Stay 5.
Halftime — 0-0.

Arc'teryx Escapa Hat - Women'sView Larger Image

What do you think about this product?
Have questions about this product?
hats color
Thank you guys!! I am getting this! :)
does this hat have pony tail holder?
does this hat have pony tail holder?
Hey Runrgrrl,
In checking Arc'teryx's website, they do state that this hat has a ponytail hole.
"Lightweight, breathable, mesh panel hat with a pliable, laminated brim and a ponytail hole"
I included a picture for you, though I for the life of me can't see a pony holder??
The pony holder does exist. That white contrast you can see on the back of the hat is not just aesthetic. It is actually a flap allowing a pony tail to come out the back and you can see it functioning if you google images of the Arc'teryx Escapa Hat.

EPISODE 01 with English subtitles also available
Oh lord almighty couldn't stop laughing at this! Much thanks for sharing! In return, have a review!
Just by looking at the title, I knew this would be a hentai with much to laugh about and having some wtfs in it. And boy did I laughed. Who would knew that rape could be so funny. This is exactly what I expected from Collaboration Works (CW), after watching Eroge! Interestingly, they used a lot of references to other works. Like the posters of Eroge! and Euphoria. Or the girl with glasses from Eroge!
What I didn't expect though was that ClockUp could make a vanilla 'rape' hentai. After all they made Euphoria. I've happened to watch some minutes of it and damn, it is beyond Princess 69. But back OT. Please Rape Me was so good. They really know how to draw at CW, much kudos for that. Also notice how low the censorship is. And the sex was very enjoyable, though I'm a bit disappointed that the actual sex scenes began a bit late. On the other hand, the comedy rate was better than in Tropical Kiss, so also big kudos. Even the end was good. Cute, with a nice touch of wtf! is acutally a better way to describe it. Singing with sex toys attachted in and on you? Lord wtf lol!1?
Then I would like to end this review with a recommendation. Dear vanilla hentai lovers:
This hentai has rape in it. But if you ignore this one only for the rape, you'll miss a very good and funny hentai. This hentai tries to give a comedy touch to the genre rape and succeeds well. Seriously, I never know those two could combine so good!
Rating: A well deserved 10!
Thnx again Dizzy. Ur really awesome lolz.
A chick that loves and shares hentai and even goes out of her way to get subs, HD formats, LQ formats and DDLs. Hontou no Tenshi.
Wish the world had more girls like u lolz
english subtitles?
Dizz, how bout this plot summary for ep
Having successfully rape his high school classmate,Yuuma. Now,Hosaka set his eye's on another of his rape fetish target,Kujou Sakura
P.S: please comment and edit while you can coz this is my understanding of the anime
allright, thanks alot d^^b
thanks man !! u R the bestz!!! finally ep 2

Checking In at the Doggie Hotel
I think I've found the solution to dealing with the squirrels that have been plaguing my bird feeders all winter. Her name is Jackie. She's an Ibizan Hound. I'd never heard of an Ibizan Hound until Friday morning, when I spotted Jackie working out on the treadmill at the doggie spa in the basement of the Hotel Pennsylvania. It's directly across the street from Madison Square Garden, where Jackie will be competing, starting Monday morning, in the Westminster Kennel Club dog show.
To be honest, I thought Jackie was a greyhound. She looks like a greyhound, only with better fashion sense. She's a model-thin large white dog with warm light-brown spots.
"They're more active than greyhounds," Jackie's owner Kiki Gindler told me. She added that greyhounds like to take a break; indoors, they're regular old couch potatoes. On the other hand, Ibizans, "They're active 24/7," Ms. Gindler said.
It didn't sound like the right dog for us—my daughter Gracie is strenuously agitating for a new pooch, even though I can tell you right now she won't walk her more than twice, the first time and the last time—until I heard what Ibizans are bred to do.
"They're constantly hunting for squirrels and rabbits," explained Linda Mattson, Jackie's handler. Jackie is ranked as the No. 1 Ibizan in the nation. I don't know if that's saying much, since Ibizans are hardly as ubiquitous as Golden Retrievers or Labradoodles. But she is a beautiful, sweet-tempered dog.
Unless, that is, there happens to be a squirrel crossing Ms. Gindler's one-acre Los Angeles yard. "She catches them, too," Ms. Mattson boasted. "It's not pretty. I've seen the leftovers."
"Also rats," Ms. Gindler added. "The other squirrels know, and stay away," meaning when one of their own is turned into tapas (Ibizans originally hail from Spain). "Jackie, do you like to eat squirrels?"
I'd heard of Jack Russells making life hell for these pests. The dogs seem built for the job, as they're low to the ground. But Jackie was so tall I'd assume the rodents could run rings around her, and in and out of her long legs.
"They don't have the speed they do," Ms. Mattson said, comparing Jack Russells to Ibizans.
"And they jump five to six feet at a standstill," Ms. Gindler said.
"If you've seen a deer go over a hedge," Ms. Mattson explained.
"They can actually scale a six-foot fence," Ms. Gindler said.
It was an awe-inspiring thought: the squirrels who have been decimating our feeders all winter thinking they've scampered out of harm's way when all of a sudden there's a 60-pound, blood-thirsty hound suspended at eye level.
Jackie and her entourage were among the early arrivals at the Hotel Pennsylvania, though they were only taking advantage of the facilities and staying next door at the Affinia Hotel. The amenities, in addition to the doggie spa, include a walking area ankle deep in sawdust and festooned with cherry red plastic fire hydrants (hence the odiferousness of the subterranean space), personal trainers, a doggie masseuse and even a pet psychic.
And part of the lobby had been transformed into a TV studio where David Frei, Westminster's director of public relations and on-air master of ceremonies, was doing live feeds with competing canines and their owners back to morning shows or newscasts in their home media markets. Think Davos or the Clinton Global Initiative, for dogs.
"Five minutes until the next hit," Mr. Frei told me. "Columbus, Ft. Myers, Detroit, Seattle, Sacramento. We try to get a dog for that location."
Journalists are by nature a skeptical bunch, and all the more so when they've been assigned to cover a photo op. (The hotel had scheduled a dog-serenading opera singer, and puppy weddings.) But sometimes you need to set aside your attitude, not to mention your dreams of becoming the next Walter Cronkite or Edward R. Murrow or even Anderson Cooper, and get into the spirit of things. After all, Westminster isn't war or famine. The whole point is to celebrate man's best friend, to have a good time.
This is all by way of introducing you to Jerry Grymek, the Pennsylvania's dog concierge. "Normally I handle public relations," Mr. Grymek informed me. "During the dog show it's all about pooch relations."
The assignments he and his hard-working staff face include fetching cheese pizzas for dogs, which is probably less of a challenge than it may sound, since the Madison Square Garden area is loaded with pizza joints. I can't vouch for their quality. Then again, I don't know how many dogs can tell the difference between fresh and canned tomato sauce, or register disappointment if their pie shows up without a sprig of fresh basil.
"One year there was a pug who requested seven McDonald's cheeseburgers, hold the onions," Mr. Grymek went on. "I actually went to get it. They don't want to leave their dog in the room alone. We don't have room service at the hotel."
I wondered whether the Pennsylvania had the equivalent of a Presidential Suite. "Uno's room," Mr. Grymek said without missing a beat. "The beloved beagle," and 2008's Westminster winner. "Room 213A. It started a little trend," meaning superstitious competitors requesting rooms that incorporated the date of the dog show's final night when Best In Show is announced.
And, as I said, if either pet or owner feels in need of counseling, they can travel to the basement where Annie Germani, the dog psychic, holds court. "I'll tell the owners about the dog's fears," Ms. Germani said. "Maybe why the dog isn't performing well.
"I don't think people give dogs a lot of credit for their intuitive natures," she went on. "They know if a judge doesn't like them. They also feel the stress from the owner."
If I was a competitor, I think all I'd care about would be knowing whether my dog was going to come up a winner and walk away with the dog chow "spokesdog" contract, the guest spot on the "Today" show and stud fees in perpetuity.
"If they want to know how the dog is going to show, I tell them the eyes are the windows to the soul—that goes for dogs, too," Ms. Germani said.
But does she ever use her psychic powers to announce the winner in advance?
"Why would I?" she asked.
I guess she has a point. Why spoil all the fun?

So what just happened was DF told SD she could have an extra folder and she wanted the one folder he needed. Well so they sat there and argued with eachother about the stupid folder and DF finaly told her take the one hes giving her or she gets nun. So in my mind I think this is the right thing to do. Well of corse she gets mad and goes to her room and crys. He gets up emptys another folder puts the contents of that folder into the one she didnt want (the one he was giving her) and gives her the one he emptyed to get her to stop crying.
So to me (what i think) - maybe Im wrong but- this teaches her to complaine, argue, and cry till she gets what she wants or something close to what she wants.
Naturally I want to discuss this with DF. I want to tell him my opinion. And I don't want him doing things like this when our child is talking and a situation like this one comes up. Ide rather my kid cry in her room. If she doesnt want what is given to her then she doesnt get anything.
So i go to talk to him and i ask him to please listen and not freak out (he freaks out every time i try to talk to him about parenting) Anyways he starts in on freaking outcuz he knows i do not agree with what he just did. And im not stupid I know he needed that folder he emptyed. If he didn't need it when why did he empty it and fill the other folder with the contents? But of corse he trys to put off like he didn't need it thats why he did what he did.
I try telling him he can do what he wants with SD but when this situation comes about with ours ide rather him not. I tryed exsplaining that i think it teaches them to keep acting up till they get what they want. I even told him what he did earlyer when he told her take it or nothing that i thought that was the right thing to do. But he just keeps yelling at me as i try telling him all this.
I dont mean to say hes wrong. I told him we have different parenting styles and we need to talk things threw but if we cant talk now about parenting then how can we when our baby comes? Of corse he says "ive been doing this for 6 years" (like i havent been there! FU2) So I freaked out ive been there since she was able to talk. No i wasnt there when she was a baby baby but ive been there threw dipper changes, passifier fases, potty training, her learning to talk. Ive pretty much been there next to him since before she could back talk.
Im sorry I just dont know how to get him to talk without him freaking out. I want him to know my opinion cuz soon we will have one together.

9 Dead People Accidentally Used for Halloween Decorations
5 26 of 28by Danielle Dauenhauer 377,106 views 9 items tags
That moment when you realize the "fake" body at a haunted house is real? Awesome. Until, that is, you realize it's not a real person playing dead, but a real person that is dead. This is the stuff psychiatrists live for, and it is all embodied (disembodied?) in this list of dead bodies mistaken for Halloween props.
Real dead body Halloween decorations are for the macabre and certainly something to avoid for the faint at heart. This list of overly creepy Halloween decorations is equal parts frightening and contemptible, but it's 100% messed up. These are real dead people that ended up mistaken as- or purposely used for- the purposes of making a spooky night seem more authentic.

Video: Woman lays flowers on her own gravesite
Posted by Mahala Gaylord on 08/30/2012 4:14am MDT tags: Video
Joan Elizabeth Ebel lays flowers on her own gravesite at Chapel Hill Memorial Gardens Cemetery Tuesday, August 28, 2012. Video by Mahala Gaylord
Ebel bought her headstone from Watson Memorial Co. where, for more than a year, it has been propped on a weathered wood pallet in the parking lot since the company abruptly closed it's doors. Joan Ebel, 81, worried about taking her headstone off private property, despite the fact that she had paid in full.
After a Denver Post story last week outlined Joan Ebel's predicament, a do-gooder named Jason Vialys decided to retrieve the headstone and transport it to Chapel Hill Memorial Gardens cemetery for her.
On Tuesday, August 28, Jason Vialys met Joan Ebel at the cemetery where her headstone was officially placed next to her mother's.
It looks so good, "I almost want to get in there," Ebel joked. In actuality, the situation has reinvigorated the 81-year-old. Ebel says now that her headstone is in place she wants to focus on working with children.

MiraCosta trustee wants 'gag rule' lifted
OCEANSIDE -- Judy Strattan, the newest member of the MiraCosta board of trustees, has asked the board to reconsider its policy prohibiting individual trustees from speaking to the media.
Strattan made the request at a MiraCosta board meeting Tuesday night. At the same meeting, the board hired a new dean of allied health occupations and a new vice president for business and administrative services for the two-year community college.
Strattan, who defeated longtime incumbent Henry Holloway by a wide margin in November, said employees and trustees were allowed to speak to the media at the other community colleges she has worked at during her 30-year career.
"I intend to bring these policies up for review," said Strattan. "I think there is some value in doing things differently."
Strattan made her request after apologizing to the other six trustees for granting The North County Times an interview on Monday, in which she discussed a controversial investigation of alleged fraud in the school's horticulture department.
"I have been made aware of the protocol that only the board president and college president can speak to the press," Strattan told her colleagues and the audience Tuesday night. "I will begin following this protocol."
Faculty leaders at MiraCosta said Wednesday that they support Strattan's efforts to change the media policy for trustees.
"We feel there needs to be greater opportunity for public debate," said Jonathan Cole, president of MiraCosta's Academic Senate. "We think they should definitely explore changing the policy."
In particular, the senate has been seeking more public debate about November's full-time faculty vote of "no confidence" in the leadership of college president Victoria Munoz Richart.
MiraCosta's policy is known as the Carver Model of policy governance, based on a 1994 book by John and Miriam Carver.
Richart has said she is a strong proponent of the policy, which MiraCosta adopted in December 2002.
Richart has said the key goal of the Carver Model is making sure the board governs through the creation and implementation of policies, not by meddling in the day-to-day operations of the college or by talking to the media about those operations.
She has explained that trustees can use the policy as a shield against stakeholders who seek favors or support from an individual trustee. The policy also prevents the board from sending out contradictory messages, she has said.
Richart has said that MiraCosta's use of the Carver Model was one of the reasons she sought the president's job at the school, which she took over in summer 2004.
Cole said the Academic Senate would also like to see the board revisit a new trustee ethics policy adopted last month that subjects individual trustees to punishment for publicly criticizing split decisions made by the board in closed session.
"We have expressed concern about free speech rights regarding the board's new ethics policy," said Cole.
The new administrators hired Tuesday night have many years experience, including time working at other community colleges in San Diego County.
James Austin was appointed vice president for business at an annual salary of $177,930.
Austin has been the vice chancellor of business services at Grossmont-Cuyamaca College in southeast San Diego County for the past 11 years, and has been serving as interim business chief for the state community college system.
Austin worked with Richart from 1988 to 1991 at Mission College in the Los Angeles Community College District. He is scheduled to take over the job on Feb. 1.
Cole, who was a member of the search committee that selected Austin, said he heard great things about Austin from members of the statewide Academic Senate.
