8 Tips For a Better Walk With Your Dog
Taking your pooch for a walk can be a struggle. He pulls your arm out of its socket and then abruptly stops to smell and sprinkle every bush and tree as you trip over him.
In my 31 years of veterinary practice and as a dog owner, I have found that using a little dog psychology and some practical techniques will help you during your next walk around the block.
Always use a leash or you may discover your pooch following the glorious world of smell from one interesting place to another and by the time he raises his head to check his bearings, he is clueless.
Use ID tags with your current phone number on your dog's collar and/or a high-tech chip ID that is implanted under the skin. That's without a doubt, the quickest way to get your buddy back if he gets off the leash and makes a run for it. The implanted chip is back-up in case the collar slips off.
Try to remember that dogs are like kids. If they get off the leash, and run for it and you chase them, they'll think it's a game. So don't chase. He is likely to return on his own. If he doesn't, act like you have his favorite treat or toy. Use any trick you can think of to get him to return short of "the chase". Once he has returned and you praised him for returning, try this: Tie a 15 foot nylon line to your dog's collar. Securely fasten the other end to yourself or something nearby that will not give. Just before your pup reaches the end of the line, say "Whoa" or "Stop." Be consistent using one or the other. Never switch back and forth as that will confuse him. When the line brings him to an abrupt stop tell him to sit and praise him for being such a good dog.
Using whistles, voice patterns, intonations and body language are much better than specific words. If you want to train your dog to respond reliably, be consistent and firm in how you command him, and never be abusive.
Carry "poop bags." Cleaning up after your dog will ensure you don't step in it on your next trip around the block and your neighbors will appreciate your common courtesy. Those bags the paper boy uses to cover your paper in bad weather make great clean up bags. Considering the content of most of the papers, you might leave the paper in the bag with the newly acquired fertilizer.
Know that your dog is territorial and every tree, bush and post needs a sprinkle.
When I go out, I just have to see
If another dog has been at my tree
I sniff it up and I sniff it down
Gotta get a read on the dogs around
Brush or bathe your dog before coming back into the house to get the pollen out of his coat if you have allergies.
Barking at a passerby can be handled by only allowing two or three barks, and then say "Quiet." Immediately interrupt his barking by surprising him. You can shake a can of pennies or use a squirt bottle or squirt gun filled with [water or] Listerine and squirt it at his mouth. Then, while he's quiet, say "good quiet" and pop a tasty treat into his mouth.
Your dog is not human, which means he really does want to please you. Your job is to figure out what his actions mean, to understand that his behavior is just typical of dogs, and offer gentle but firm guidance toward good behavior.
Now get going. Grab a leash and enjoy the benefits of exercise and the pleasure of your pooch's companionship.

text: I was checking out my local Pawn / Gun shop the other day and noticed the had a brand new VZ58 on the shelf for $459. I thought it was an interresting AK variation. I handled it and it seemed very solid and light weight. Fit and finish were also nice. I did a little research and came to the conclusion that parts and spare magazines might be hard to come by. The only thing that turned me off were the terrible looking stocks. I am still considoring picking it up but I really would like some input from forum members that have experience with them.

College Hockey:Griffs Battle Crusaders To Draw
WORCESTER, Mass. — After dropping a 3-2 match to third-place Quinnipiac Friday night, you might say Canisius was a little tired; but to have to turn around and play first-place Holy Cross just 15 hours later, you might argue they were exhausted.
So, with back-to-back road games, Canisius was more than happy to come out of Saturday's matinee with a 2-2 tie.
"I thought this was a great point for Canisius on the road," said Golden Griffs coach Brian Cavanaugh, whose team is still winless in its last six. "This was a real character point for us, especially without our leading scorers Michael Cohen and Andrew Dawe, who are out with injuries. Some teams would have panicked, but we really fought it out today."
The speedy Crusader forwards, who netted 11 goals against Bentley last weekend, were slowed by Canisius' stifling neutral zone play in the first period. However, Holy Cross generated six power plays in the first period alone, converting on one.
"There was no room for us in the neutral zone," said Holy Cross coach Paul Pearl. "We had our chances, but they shut us down. I think we had more room with the power play to open things up that by the time we were five-on-five, it was a shock to the system. The positive was that when we didn't score, we played good defense."
Despite going 1-7 on the power play, Holy Cross made up for it on the defensive end. Crusader goaltender Tony Quesada didn't face a shot for the first 15:41 of the first period, including two penalty kills. The Golden Griffs managed only three shots during the entire opening stanza.
"I think you have to attribute playing shorthanded for most of the period to that," said Cavanaugh. "We had to play more at even strength. That gave us more opportunity to generate offense."
Holy Cross opened scoring early in the first period when senior R.J. Irving capitalized on the Crusaders' first power play of the game. Pierre Napert-Frenette fed the puck over to Andrew McKay in the right wing corner. McKay feathered a pass across the slot to the streaking Irving, pinching from the point. Irving one-timed the pass from the left slot into a yawning net that had Canisius goaltender Bryan Worosz off-guard. Irving's third goal of the year came 5:10 into the contest.
"We got caught on that first goal," said Cavanaugh. "We had talked about backdoor plays, but I thought we adjusted well after it."
Even though Canisius managed just three first-period shots, it made the most of it. With Holy Cross' Chris Sullivan in the box for slashing, Todd Bowler broke down the left side and fired a shot from the circle on Quesada, who made the initial save. On a Holy Cross miscue, Bowler collected his own rebound and crammed the puck past Quesada to knot the game at 1-1 with 17 seconds to play in the first.
"We're not a too-high, too-low team," said Pearl. "The puck took a funny bounce. I don't think it would have happened in the third. We just didn't play as smart in the first as we did in the third."
The Canisius offense came alive in the second period and began peppering Quesada but still couldn't outshoot the Crusaders. It was another funny bounce that gave the Golden Griffs the lead. With 7:27 remaining in the second, Jaymie Harrington skated behind Quesada's net and fired a shot at the goaltender from just above the goal line. Quesada dropped down but looked up to the ceiling in disgust as the puck trickled under him. Quesada turned aside 22 Canisius shots in the afternoon.
The Crusaders trailed 2-1 entering the third, but wasted little time knotting the game. Freshman defenseman Jon Landry pinched, holding the puck on the blue line and shoveling it to James Sixsmith. Sixsmith dumped it off to Coskren in the low left slot. Coskren fired a wrister low to the blocker side of Worosz and beat the goaltender. Coskren's fifth goal of the year was the game's last as Worosz finished the day with 37 saves.
"We were able to move our forwards up in the third," said Pearl. "That allowed us to create more opportunities. You have to give great credit to Worosz for keeping us out. It was a well-fought tie."
With less than five minutes to play, Irving had the game's best scoring chance when he blasted a shot off the post from the slot, but couldn't find the twine. Neither team could convert in overtime.
Holy Cross will travel to Air Force next weekend to take on the Falcons in two non-conference games.
"Once we get back," said Pearl. "Everyone will have played 18 games. We should be ahead mathematically, and we'll get ready for the late push."
Canisius will return to the road for a two-game series with UConn.
"We're in the midst of a seven-game road trip," said Cavanaugh. "For some teams, that's an entire season on the road. I think looking at that, we played with a lot of character and earned that point today. Our guys showed a lot of fortitude."

Business Building Blocks: Tips for Obtaining Sound Entrepreneurial Advice
For those who already own a personal business I'm sure you know, finding good sources for business advice early on in the game isn't always easy. For those with entrepreneurial plans on the brain, please note: while everyone you meet and everything you read will claim to have your best interest at heart, a scarce few actually do. For most of them, you're just another means to a quick buck. Here we've compiled three very basic but potentially business-saving tips that aim to give you some safe advice, about getting some safe advice.
– Speak to a Human
While you might spend a little money to do it, hiring a personal life coach or a professional consultant is a foolproof way to get worthwhile, personal business advice. It can also save you the trouble of scouring the net for reliable sites. These guys and girls will actually meet with you face-to-face to ensure your questions are answered and that you have the tools you need to succeed in your business venture.
– Trusted Acquaintances
Asking for advice or help from someone you know and trust is almost always a safe bet, in any situation. Starting a business is certainly no exception, and you'll probably be surprised by how talkative even the most stoic of your companions can be once you mention their personal prowess in business. Even if it's from a friend who's had a failed or struggling business, getting advice about what not to do is often more valuable than what to do. If there were one way to succeed in this world, we'd all be doing it. There are, unfortunately, many more known ways to fail.
– Trusted Websites
Much like the one you find yourself on now, there are many business sites and blogs with loads of readable, quality content on them. With all the garbage and spam on the net these days though, the hardest part is just finding them. Here is a link to a helpful website which offers the top articles in a variety of fields, including business. Finding a good, trusted site that fits with your personal business needs can be tough, so once you find one, don't forget it.
In today's tough economy, finding great advice can truly be the difference between a great idea coming to fruition, or falling idly by at the wayside. In taking the necessary steps and precautions to gain sound advice before beginning any financial endeavors, you greatly increase your chances for success. Like everything else in life, it's better to learn from the mistakes and successes of those who have gone before you. Never make the same mistake twice.

All school in the Middletown-Odessa-Townsend area are closed today due to the latest winter storm, which brought nearly 3 to 4 inches of snow to southern New Castle County overnight.
Another 1 to 3 inches of new snow could fall before 1 p.m. today, the National Weather Service reports.
The Appoquinimink School District, MOT Charter School, St. Georges Technical High School and St. Anne's Episcopal School all announced closures before 6 a.m. Monday.
Other public school districts in New Castle County initially had called for a two-hour delay today before announcing school closures. All school districts in the state eventually closed for the day.
New Castle County Government announced its offices would be opening on time, although employees are being given two hours of liberal leave this morning to make it into work.
State offices in New Castle County were slated to open at 10 a.m. with essential employees to report as scheduled, while state offices in Kent and Sussex will be closed today.
"We strongly encourage drivers who do not need to travel to delay or refrain from going on the roads to give DelDOT plows time and ability to work," Gov. Jack Markell said in a statement released after 5 a.m. "Expected snowfall totals are not as significant in New Castle County, but we still encourage those traveling in the northern part of the state to use caution and allow extra time to reach their destination today."

Connecticut aviation buffs, this weekend's for you.
Three vintage World War II combat aircraft will land at Waterbury-Oxford Airport, as part of the "Wings of Freedom" tour, September 5-7.
The planes include two bombers and a P-17 Mustang fighter, one of only eight that remain in flying condition in the United States, according to the Collings Foundation, a non-profit historic preservation society.
One of two heavy bombers on the tour, the B-24 Liberator is named "Witchcraft" and served in England and helped liberate Nazi-occupied lands.
Names of every pilot, radio operator and gunner who served on board are painted across the fuselage of the plane.
"Nine-O-Nine" is a massive B-17 "Flying Fortress" with a 103-foot wingspan and four machine gun positions, including two "ball turrets" where gunners sat inside a glass ball and fired at enemy planes.
The heavy bombers were the backbone of the American effort during the war from 1942 to 1945 and were famous for their ability to sustain damage and still accomplish the mission, according to the Collings Foundation.
"The P-51 Mustang was affectionately known as the bomber's 'little friend' – saving countless crews from attacking Axis fighters.
"After the war, many aircraft were scrapped for their raw aluminum to rebuild a nation in post-war prosperity and therefore very few were spared," Collings said.
Visitors will have the chance to see the planes up close and even climb inside.
Admission is $12 for adults, $6 for children under 12, and veterans will be admitted free of charge.
Hours are Friday, 2 p.m. to 5 p.m.; Saturday and Sunday, 9.a.m. to 5 p.m.
After Oxford, the tour will visit Groton-New London Airport September 8-10, then head to Nashua, New Hampshire.

Book synopsis
Professional identities are not only constructed through discourse, but can also be studied and analysed through discourse and communication behaviour, which is probably the most powerful resource available for the understanding of their nature and function. The present volume investigates the ways in which the discourses produced in a variety of professional contexts, especially in business, legal and institutional spheres of action, shape and manifest professional identities.
The focus of the studies in this collection is on whether, and to what extent, the in-group identity of a given professional community and the norms elaborated by it affect the communicative behaviour of the individual participant or whether, and to what extent, the professional communication is also affected by the participant's specific objectives in the performance of that professional practice.
Most of the studies reported here employ discourse and genre analytical and corpus linguistics tools to highlight the ways and means by which discourses contribute to the analysis of typical identity traits of various professional communities to provide some account of the way members of these professional communities strategically manipulate linguistic resources to achieve their professional objectives.

Violet Crown art cinema opening in Austin
AUSTIN, TX — The Violet Crown, a new quad art cinema, opened on April 29 on Austin's Second Street. The new cinema features a full bar and cafe, and will soon present a series of Criterion classics as part of its art and independent film programming. The theater's name is a reference to an old nickname of the city of Austin. The theater's owner, Bill Banowsky, is a former Landmark Theatres executive and former owner of the Magnolia Pictures distribution company.
This article about the theater, from the Austinist, features an interview with Banowsky and an architect's sketch of the cinema.

Booker-T reopens today
ROCKY MOUNT, NC — The Booker-T. (aka Savoy) has been restored and will reopen this coming weekend, 4/29-30/11. It is part of a community revitalization project called the "Douglas Block." Another theater, the Manhattan, has also been left standing but this theater has been repurposed for retail. Both of these theaters were African-American theaters during segregation and to my knowledge, the Booker-T is the only African-American theater in North Carolina to have been restored and to be used for an entertainment venue.
We are heading up there for the dedication and celebration and will share photos and more history when we return.
If anyone has more info on these historic theaters, please let me know. There are so few of them left.

Nitehawk Cinemas to bring dine & view to Williamsburg
BROOKLYN, NY — A twin cinema called the Nitehawk will now be open in time for Memorial Day in the Williamsburg neighborhood in Brooklyn. Located within a new apartment house, the Nitehawk will have two intimate screening rooms and a ground floor restaurant and cocktail service.
"The model is based on theaters he's been to in Texas where you can order food and drinks," said architect Jonathan Taylor, of Caliper Studios, who designed the space. "He was looking for a project that would allow him to tailor the cinema. At that point, they were vanilla boxes."
The 92- and 68-seat theaters will feature tiered seating with the restaurant on the ground floor — and there's even a small screening room for private parties.
There is more, with a drawing of the new theater, in the Brooklyn Paper.

Wichita's Northrock 14 to become office building
WICHITA, KS — The Northrock 14, owned by Overland Park, KS based Dickinson Theatres is slated to become an office building later this year. The theatre is currently still in operation. Ironically, the older Northrock 6 which is in the parking lot of the 14-plex was also renovated into an office building several years ago by the same company. Northrock 14 was built in 1997 and is a near identical sister theatre to the Starworld 20 Theatre in Tulsa, OK.
Occidental CEO Gary Oborny says potential tenants have expressed "serious interest" in 40,000 to 50,000 square feet of the renovated Northrock 14. He declined to identify those prospects but says they are a mix of local and out-of-state companies.
The largest of them could take 25,000 to 30,000 square feet, he says.
"I think by the end of the year we'd like to move on it," he says of construction.

Two new screens will open at New York's Lincoln Center
NEW YORK, NY — The art and independent film scene in New York will get a boost when two new intimate screening rooms open in June at Lincoln Center under the aegis of the Film Society of Lincoln Center, the sponsor of the New York Film Festival. Collectively, the two-auditorium complex on the south side of West 65th Street will be known as the Elinor Bunin Munroe Film Center. In addition to the screening roms, there will also be a cafe and a small auditorium for lectures and educational events.
The two new theaters in the complex, which will open officially on June 17, are meant to be intimate settings, with 150 and 90 seats. But the complex, known as the Elinor Bunin Munroe Film Center, in honor of the filmmaker and designer who is a board member of the society, will also include an indoor cafe and an auditorium — with a 152-inch plasma screen and a capacity for 75 people — for lectures and other educational programs.
"This is the first construction of a new art theater north of 14th Street in decades," said Rose Kuo, executive director of the film society. "We hope that what we are creating is a cultural destination, something that grows our community, that is welcoming and offers not only great films but the opportunity to gather and have a meal or a glass of wine."

Pickford Film Center opens new facility
BELLINGHAM, WA — The non-profit Pickford Film Center celebrated the opening of its new twin-auditorium theater on Bay Street on April 7. The environmentally-sensitive cinema is capable of both 35mm and digital projection; the Center focuses on presenting art, independent, and avant-garde films. The Center's current home on Cornwall Avenue will close at least temporarily, but may become a digital projection cinema under a different name.
The arts organization began renovating the building in 2007, continuing to raise money for the project as the work progressed.
Renovations included a seismic upgrade and adding 5,000 square feet of usable space to the basement for future expansion, including a film school.

Texas Theatre re-opens in Seguin
SEGUIN, TX — After 13 years of fundraising and two million dollars of restoration, the Stephen and Mary Birch Texas Theatre opened its doors for public viewing on Sunday, March 6, 2011. The restoration of the 1929 theater has recreated the domed, star-studded ceiling, gilded lanterns and romantic murals in the 350-seat main auditorium of the theatre. Expansion into an adjacent building has created new restroom, rehearsal and reception areas.
Nearly 200 funders, corporations and private supporters from all over the region have sponsored elements in the elaborate atmospheric movie palace. A cornerstone gift from the Stephen and Mary Birch Foundation brought in one million dollars. The San Antonio Area Foundation sponsored the stage and the San Antonio Conservation Society sponsored the restoration of the box office exterior.
Raising funds for the restoration and expansion of this historic landmark has taken 13 years since the Seguin Conservation Society purchased the theatre in 1996. Now re-opened, the group expects an annual attendance of 24,600 for performances such as live music, folkloric dances, community recitals, university stage productions, film festivals, and dinner theater shows, all to be accommodated in the 350-seat facility.

So our instructor wants us to write a 3 page report on some fact in Differential Geometry relating to curves or surfaces. It can be a theorem, a fact or some special case.
The only restriction is that I cannot write about things we did in class. We are using a book called Elementary Differential Geoemetry by Andrew Presley. We've covered pretty much all of the book.
This includes main theorems like Gauss Bonnet, Theorema Egregium, Gaussian/Mean curvatures, Euler's Theorem, Geodesic, Gauss Map, the First/Second Fundamentals, just scratched on the surface of Minimal surfaces.
After googling some topics, I was overwhelmed due to the shocking level of mathematics involved and have thus no where else to look. So if anyone could suggest some topics for me, it would be awesome. Preferably keep it to the level of someone who only have had a course in calculus of severable variables and linear algebra. But if the restrictions are too much, you may assume that the student have had a course in Real Analysis.

UBS Nabs Real Estate and Leisure Banker from Deutsche Bank
UBS on Wednesday announced the hiring of Eric Dobi as a managing director in its real estate, leisure and lodging group. He will be based in New York.
Mr. Dobi joined UBS from Deutsche Bank, where he was a managing director working on the bank's REIT and real estate deals.
A 17-year Wall Street veteran, Mr. Dobi started his investment banking career at Lehman Brothers before moving onto Merrill Lynch and then Morgan Stanley, where he worked on deals involving REITs, consumer product companies, and retailers.
"Recognized as a leader on Wall Street in real estate investment banking, we are confident he will be a strong asset to the firm," Steve Cummings, UBS's head of and Peter Baccile, the joint head of real estate, leisure, and lodging services, wrote in an internal memo announcing Mr. Dobi's hiring.
"This has already been a big year for RELL, and adding Eric to the team, along with Michael Errichetti's hire in January and Chris Allred's hire in April, reflects the firm's commitment to our expertise in the sector.
With the Obama administration potentially cracking down on tax inversions, REITs appear to be the favored strategy in the M&A fight to lower U.S. corporate taxes.

Arizona Governor Jan Brewer has vetoed SB1062, The Religious Freedom Restoration Act in Arizona. No one has ever accused Governor Brewer of being the most courageous Republican around. Come to think of it, the word courageous and Jan Brewer have probably never been uttered in the same sentence.
The left and the homosexual lobby in America went into overdrive to kill this bill. Conservatives rallied for this bill and Governor Brewer opted for cowardice instead of courage.
Why is this bill so important and what did it mean for not only Arizona but America?
The issue can be boiled down to one word: Freedom.
A free man or woman controls their labor. A slave has no control over their labor. A free man or woman decides who they will work for and under what conditions. The slave cannot.
The left and the homosexual lobby are both pushing slavery using the Orwellian concepts of "tolerance" and "inclusiveness."
The law began as a response to a case in neighboring New Mexico. There, the state of New Mexico allowed a lawsuit against a Christian photographer who declined to photograph a homosexual commitment ceremony. There have been similar cases with bakers in Oregon and Colorado.
The Arizona legislature acted to preempt that happening in Arizona.
Immediately the left and the homosexual lobby went into high dudgeon. Arizona's SB1062 must be defeated because Americans really are no longer free and must be forced to serve the great liberal state, regardless of their beliefs.
The storm rose against Arizona and Jan Brewer proved she was no Ronald Reagan. She has an honored place in the ranks of the French Republicans. Corporations and business interests, many of whom support far left wing causes, like Apple demanded this bill be vetoed. Apple gives 96% of its political giving to Democrats. Why a Republican listens to a word from Apple or lifts a finger to help them is beyond comprehension. The NFL threatened to pull the Super Bowl from Arizona in 2015.
Someone with courage would have called their bluff. Arizona has Jan Brewer.
The left came up with bizarre and insane arguments against SB1062. They tried to equate sexual preference with race. Unfortunately few will stand up against that grossly inaccurate analogy. The left believes that it has the right to dictate what religious beliefs are allowed.
They need to be reminded what our Declaration of Independence and our Constitution say. Our rights are given to us by a higher power than the government and cannot be taken away.
The left loves to come up with absurd hypotheticals to scream that there must be compliance with their fascism, so how about a couple from our side.
Should a devout baker be required to create a cake for a homosexual wedding that has a giant phallic symbol on it or should a baker be required to create pastries for a homosexual wedding in the shape of genitallia? Or should a photographer be required to photograph a homosexual wedding where the participants decide they want to be nude or engage in sexual behavior? Would they force a Jewish photographer to work a Klan or Nazi event? How about forcing a Muslim caterer to work a pork barbeque dinner?
SB1062 was never about discrimination. It was about the left imposing its will on Americans who disagree.
The most common victims of the left wing homosexual assault on freedom have been Christian bakers and photographers. These are not uncommon skills. In even the most rural areas you can find them.
Does anyone really believe these cases of Christian bakers or photographers being sued over their refusal to provide services. Over the last couple of years, a number of articles have been published in professional photography magazines about how to cater to homosexual weddings. For many photographers, this is a growth industry.
If a photographer or baker doesn't want to take a particular job, liberty says they have the right to decide how their labor is used. Slavery is when the state tells them their labor will be used whether they like it or not.
SB1062 is a bigger story than simply the story of a cowardly governor who has no core beliefs.
SB1062 is the story of liberalism at work in America.
Liberalism is the paranoid belief that leftists have that somewhere, someone may be thinking for themselves. It is the tyrannical belief that no deviation in belief is allowed from the decreed orthodoxy.
It is the antithesis of liberty.
It is tyranny on the march.

Oh but Judson! They threatened to take away the Super Bowl!! Tyranny? Pfffft.
Wonder if there are enough votes to override her veto?
Absolutely. Amazing how that whole 'separation of church and state' thing just comes and goes............
Yes! Your comment prompts me to spin off in about five different directions.
But in short, Yes Kristin, it is truly staggering.
"Meek" and "cowed" are different things.
"... the state should be able to force people to recognize as normal that which most Christians view as sinful. What is staggering is the number of Christians who apparently think the State has the right to decide and enforce this issue."
Matthew 22:36-38 (KJ21)
"36 "Master, which is the great commandment in the law?" 37 Jesus said unto him, "'Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.' 38 This is the first and great commandment."
Jesus himself declared that the first commandment is the most important law. Anyone who violates the first commandment by worshipping a God other than the God of Abraham is in the deepest state of sin according to Jesus himself.
By your logic, a business should be able to deny service to anyone they feel is not in enough compliance with their religion. So, christians should be able to deny any business service to any non-christain (i.e. - per Jesus' statement above) or maybe even a christian they feel is in too great a state of sin (e.g. - a sodomite). Muslims can deny service to any non-muslim. Heathens can deny service to anyone who doesn't pay homage to their pagan gods. Pastafarians can deny service to anyone who doesn't believe in their noodley master. And on and on ...
Now, what happens when a community dominated by a particular religion (e.g. - mormons) collectively decides to deny business services to another group of people (e.g. - evangelical christians) that they feel aren't compliant enough with their religion?
Well, it basically becomes impossible for the minority group to survive in that locality. It's hard to survive when no grocer will sell you any goods because you are a sinner.
Religion should not be a test that anyone has to pass just to survive and be treated decently in public in our society. That is why the Civil Rights Act correctly disallows entities that provide public services to discriminate based on religion, race / color, sex or national origin.
The state should obviously have the ability to enforce non-discrimination against certain minority groups, including the ones I just listed. The only real question is whether gays, lesbians, bisexuals and transgender people deserve to be such a protected class or not. A law written to specifically allow people to discriminate against others based on their own religion would likely run afoul of the Civil Rights Act.
John, there is a persistent and willful misrepresentation of what has been happening and what Christians are asking for.
The florist had been serving her gay customers for a long time before they asked for wedding arrangements.
The Colorado baker said he could sell them anything off the rack.
The photographer had no trouble with taking portrait shots.
This has never been about turning away homosexual customers because they're gay; but the self-righteous kick from claiming that has been too satisfying to resist.
I'm not going to have a conversation with you because you're deliberately misrepresenting the situation to make your case look stronger and more righteous than it is.
But if you ever decide you're willing to discuss the actual situation. I'm here.
Lizzie, I was responding directly to what Kristin wrote. She seems to think that the state should not have "the right to decide and enforce ... people to recognize as normal that which most Christians view as sinful."
First, Kristin's framing misrepresents the issue. None of the gay couples asked their baker, florist, etc. to "recognize [them or their actions] as normal." No, they were asking those businesses to sell them their business services as they would any other customer of the public. Two quite different things.
Second, Kristin is implying that businesses should have the right to discriminate against their customers based on their religious beliefs. As I demonstrated with Jesus' own words, probably the greatest sin in Christianity is to violate the first commandment. Given that, it seems logical that she is arguing that a business owned / run by christians should have the legal right to deny service to any non-christian or maybe even any christian who they feel is in too deep a state of sin (e.g. - a sodomite). As I pointed out above, such a notion takes us to a crazy place where your religion is potentially a test in everyday life just to survive. Many of the people who first colonized this country and wrote our founding documents were specifically trying to escape religion being used as a test against them in everyday life!
Third, where is it written or even implied in the Bible that being hired to bake a cake, or take photographs, or arrange flowers, etc., even at a wedding your religion does not sanction (e.g. - a hindu wedding, a gay wedding, etc.) is even remotely possibly a sin???
I could maybe, possibly begin to see the argument if by hiring you I was somehow forcing you to actually directly transgress against your religion's teachings, but we are a far cry from that here. Even that line of thought though opens up all sorts of cans of worms such as "how do we decide what your religion actually teaches," "whose interpretation of your religion's teachings do we believe," "what if your religious beliefs violate the civil rights of others," etc.
John, in addition to Lizzie's reply, you need to understand AZ already has a law on the books re: religious freedom which was initiated so a business didn't have to sell contraception if it was against their religion. This bill (look at my other post in the replies) is just adding to that already existent AZ law that a business cannot be sued for participating in something which is against the owner's religion. The bill had nothing at all to do with Civil Rights or being a homosexual or anything else for that matter.

|The present study which is the first of its kind in this region is an attempt to generate adequate information on the relative abundances, the seasonal and spatial variations as well as on the source and fate of organic compounds found associated with the dissolved, particulate and sedimentary compartments of Chalakudy river system. The study aimed at investigating variations, the relative proportion of dissolved, particulate and sedimentary fractions of these materials as well as the pollution extent so as to be able to comment on the present condition of this river-estuarine system. This thesis focuses attention on the role of biogeoorganics in modifying the ecological and environmental condition of the dissolved, particuIate and sediment compartments with their minute variability subjected to various physical, chemical and biogeochemical processes. A scheme of study encompassing all these objectives provides the frame work for the present investigation.

The Wisconsin father who dealt with his problematic 15-year-old girl by keeping her in the basement and starving her to 68 pounds was sentenced on Wednesday to five years in prison. "Before being sentenced by Dane County Circuit Judge Julie Genovese, the 42-year-old man read a statement insisting his daughter suffered from severe emotional and behavioral problems that he couldn't handle, that his job as a trucker kept him away from home and that he didn't notice how thin she had become," reported the Associated Press via ABC News on Jan. 30, 2014.
In addition to sentencing the Wisconsin dad to five years in prison for having starved his troubled 15-year-old daughter, Dane County Circuit Judge Julie Genovese told the 42-year-old man that even though it was clear that the girl was troubled and had problems, it would have been his job as a father to take action.
"What I think you did was put your head in the sand. It's your job as a dad to see it and you didn't. Really, the buck stops with you," said Judge Genovese.
The case of the 15-year-old girl came to the attention of investigators in February of 2012, after she had run away from her home in Madison in Wisconsin and was picked up by a passing motorist.
According to the girl's account, she had spent the past five years having been confined without sufficient food to a basement in her home, that her stepmother had beaten her, that her stepbrother had repeatedly forced her to perform oral sex on him, and that she was forced to eat her feces and drink her own urine.
In a letter to Judge Genovese, the teen described her experience as degrading. "They made me feel like I was dehumanized a lot. It's all thanks to my stupid dad and stepmom for not giving me an education and keeping me locked up for most of my life and making me feel like I was in a scary spot in my life."
Last summer, Judge Genovese had sentenced the stepmother to five years in prison after she pleaded no contest to reckless endangerment and causing mental harm to a child. Next month, the stepbrother is scheduled to stand trial on sexual assault charges.
The dad who was sentenced on Wednesday to five years in prison for having starved his daughter had already gone through two previous trials. In March, jurors deadlocked on some charges. During the follow-up trial in November, the troubled teen's father was convicted of child neglect, child abuse, reckless endangerment, and causing mental harm to a child, all felonies. He was acquitted of false imprisonment and misdemeanor neglect.
Before being sentenced to five years in prison, the dad who dealt with his troubled teen daughter by starving her testified that while living in Texas, his daughter's stepfather had sexually assaulted her. After she came to live with him in Wisconsin, she refused to eat and threatened to kill the family in their sleep. He also testified that a psychologist had suggested that the troubled teen "live on a different level than the rest of the family."
"Social workers made several visits to the home, but he couldn't follow up on her care because he was always on the road. He said social workers should have removed her from the home."

Below are some of the things I believe, that have made me the person I am today. They are not scriptures from the Bible, they are from my heart. I post them not to brag on myself, but rather to let you really know who I am, what I feel, and some of the inner feelings (both the joys and the pains) I have felt.
So in essence, I give you the opportunity to look into my heart, and see a Pastor that shares his life with you.
Please remember when you walk down your "Path of Life", that Our Heavenly Father will wait for us to "die" before passing His Judgment on us and others...
The List:
1. I could love you, not because of who you are, but because of who I am when I am with you.
3. A true friend is someone who reaches for your hand and touches your heart.
5. Never frown, even when you are sad, you never know who is falling in love with your smile.
7. Don't spend your time on a man/woman, who is not willing to spend their time on you.
9. There's always going to be people that hurt you. So what you have to do is keep on trusting... and just be more careful about who you trust next time around.
11. Don't try so hard, the best things come when you least expect them to.

Carmelo Anthony and the New York Knicks are finalizing a deal that would allow Anthony to remain a Knick, according to a July 12 story on the ESPN website. Anthony visited the Houston Rockets, Los Angeles Lakers and the Chicago Bulls in the past week while considering his options. Anthony was reported to have narrowed his choice down to 2 teams; Chicago and New York.
Carmelo Anthony was drafted by the Denver Nuggets in 2003, according to Wikipedia. In 2011, he was traded from Denver to New York, where he has played for the past 3 years. In June, Carmelo took advantage of a clause in his contract that allowed him to opt out of the final year of his agreement. While Carmelo sought to "explore his options;" some, like NBA analyst Stephen A Smith never believed that Anthony was serious about leaving New York because, according to Smith, "Carmelo loves his money, and he will stay a Knick as long as they are able to pay him the most money."
The Bible does not speak specifically of max contracts, but it does speak on the ability to earn. The Apostle Paul stated that it was wrong to muzzle the ox while it is threading the grain. He, as a preacher, was entitled to be paid and supported by the churches that he spiritually supported. Carmelo Anthony, as an employee of the New York Knicks, made almost $22 million dollars in the 2013. The New York Knicks are believed to be worth $3 billion dollars.
100 Chicago Bulls fans were asked if they were (or would be) disappointed if Anthony chose another team. Less than half of the fans (39) expressed disappointment with his decision. Almost 90 percent (88) never believed that he was serious about Chicago; because (according to the fans) New York could pay him more.
With salary caps and max contracts, sports (including baseball) are rarely discussed as a part of the free market. Do you think basketball players are entitled to be paid what the market will bear? Are they wrong for asking to be paid as much as they can be?

Tonight's Cooking Channel episode of Restaurant Redemption brings chef Ching-He Huang to Dallas, Texas to help revive a friendship and restaurant.
Ching visited Crimson and met with Salina and Hanna, two Vietnamese best friends who had finance and marketing experience, but not restaurant experience. So Ching got to work checking out the kitchen and wanted to taste their five signature dishes.
While Ching waited for their five best dishes, and most were tasteless. As Ching criticized some of the choices, she could clearly see how the two friends disagreed on nearly every aspect of the food. Ching could see that they do not even look at each other when they talk.
As the design team started making over the front of the house, Ching met with Hanna, who seemed to be bulldozed out of her opinion by Salina. So Ching met with Salina to get her opinion, and gave her a reality check. These two best friends are partners and should respect each other's opinions, so sitting with Ching, the two partners cried it out and realized they needed to sit and talk and iron out their differences.
Next, Ching worked on the menu with them. She loved the Pho, and wanted to elevate it to the next level. As the two women worked together in the kitchen, their food was elevated too.
When the women saw the transformation, the restaurant popped with a new vibrancy it lacked in the past. When the service started, they were a bit overwhelmed at first, but soon were in sync and the restaurant was humming like never before, thanks to Ching and her crew of Restaurant Redemption.

PURPOSE: This phase III open-label study compared the efficacy and safety of enzastaurin versus lomustine in patients with recurrent glioblastoma (WHO grade 4). PATIENTS AND METHODS: Patients were randomly assigned 2:1 to receive 6-week cycles of enzastaurin 500 mg/d (1,125-mg loading dose, day 1) or lomustine (100 to 130 mg/m(2), day 1). Assuming a 45% improvement in progression-free survival (PFS), 397 patients were required to provide 80% power to achieve statistical significance at a one-sided level of .025. RESULTS: Enrollment was terminated at 266 patients (enzastaurin, n = 174; lomustine, n = 92) after a planned interim analysis for futility. Patient characteristics were balanced between arms. Median PFS (1.5 v 1.6 months; hazard ratio [HR] = 1.28; 95% CI, 0.97 to 1.70), overall survival (6.6 v 7.1 months; HR = 1.20; 95% CI, 0.88 to 1.65), and 6-month PFS rate (P = .13) did not differ significantly between enzastaurin and lomustine, respectively. Stable disease occurred in 38.5% and 35.9% of patients and objective response occurred in 2.9% and 4.3% of patients, respectively. Time to deterioration of physical and functional well-being and symptoms did not differ between arms (HR = 1.12; P = .54). Four patients discontinued enzastaurin because of drug-related serious adverse events (AEs). Eleven patients treated with enzastaurin died on study (four because of AEs; one was drug-related). All four deaths that occurred in patients receiving lomustine were disease-related. Grade 3 to 4 hematologic toxicities were significantly higher with lomustine (46 events) than with enzastaurin (one event; P < or = .001). CONCLUSION: Enzastaurin was well tolerated and had a better hematologic toxicity profile but did not have superior efficacy compared with lomustine in patients with recurrent glioblastoma.

Founded in Worcester, Mass., in 1865, WPI was one of the nation's earliest technological universities. From our founding days, we've taken a unique approach to science and technology education.
Where science and technology meet real-world problems
We believe that students should understand how to apply knowledge – not just how to cite facts and theories. Our undergraduates and graduate students emerge ready to take on some of the most difficult challenges in science and technology. More important, they understand how their work can truly impact society and improve our lives.
Outstanding academics, faculty and research programs
WPI's academic departments offer more than 50 undergraduate and graduate degree programs in science, engineering, technology, management, the social sciences, and the humanities and arts, leading to the BA, BS, MS, ME, MBA and PhD. Our world-class faculty work with students in a number of cutting-edge research areas, leading to breakthroughs and innovations in such fields as biotechnology, fuel cells, nanotechnology, and information security. Students also have the opportunity to make a difference to communities and organizations around the world through our innovative Global Perspectives program. There are over 20 WPI project centers throughout North America and Central America, Africa, Australia, Asia, and Europe.
A highly regarded institution
WPI is ranked No. 64 among all national, doctoral universities by U.S. News & World Report; No. 1 for student/faculty interaction in the National Survey of Student Engagement; and No. 9 by The Princeton Review for "best career prospects" for graduates of our MBA program. And that's just the beginning of the recognition we've received from a large number of institutions and individuals for our high quality and unique approach to education.
A community of diverse interests
The WPI community is alive with activity. Students participate in nearly 200 extracurricular activities, including music, theatre, and Greek organizations, 20 varsity sports teams, and more than 30 club and intramural sports. There are also fun campus-wide annual events, including Homecoming, Winter Ball, and QuadFest.
A beautiful campus in a central location
WPI's 80-acre traditional, New England campus is set on a secluded hilltop in an area that is home to 13 colleges (and over 35,000 college students). Worcester is an exciting place to be, with several museums, music and theatre performance centers, an arena for concerts and sporting events, and lots of restaurants, entertainment venues, and shopping centers. Commuter rail service offers students easy access to all that Boston has to offer—and it's just an hour away.
