Argentina's Babasonicos are ten albums in and still confidently exploring a sound that combines glam swagger and wit—although Bryan Ferry is now a staunch supporter of the English fox hunt, surely his younger self would appreciate the hooks and pointed humor of the class-vs.-class wrestling match video for Babasonico's dreamy "Deshoras"—with a pop sensibility that's as deep as it is broad. (Like the Pacific Ocean, people!) Newest A Proposito is full of glowing guitar and choruses that unfold, and the hint of autotune on singer Adrian Dargelos' voice is as smooth and sweet as honey. It's a slick and masterful album, proving Babasonicos still know how to take a little bit of everything (like the unexpected fuzz and surf sounds on "Flora Y Fauno") and make it their own.

"Ay bakit naman may ganoon? Hindi ko naman kaya 'yung consequence," Chiu said in an interview on "Kris TV" on Wednesday. While Chiu admitted that it was her childhood dream to be a mermaid, she admitted that she doesn't fit the role. "Hindi naman bagay sa akin. Puro bashing lang ang aabutin ko niyan, 'wag na," she said. Last week, ABS-CBN announced that "It's Showtime" host Anne Curtis will be playing the iconic mermaid character created by Mars Ravelo. Kim as comedian Meanwhile, Chiu said she is content to make her fans laugh when the romantic comedy "Bride for Rent" hits theaters on Wednesday. "Magiging komedyante na lang ako," she said. "'Yung movie, feel-good lang at hinahayaan lang kami ni direk na gawin 'yung gusto namin ad-lib lang kami nang ad-lib." Chiu went on to discuss what her newest film is all about. "It talks about marriage and relationship, kung paano tumagal, 'yung marriage, 'yung relationship. Kung paano ang mag-boyfriend at girlfriend, na hindi dapat possessive. 'Pag labas nila (viewers) ng moviehouse parang bagong tao na sila," she said.

Unidentified Male Sent Flying From Elevated Freeway, Bayou Body Count No. 156
A drunk driver hit a man who was on an elevated freeway shoulder trying to fix his car, sending the victim flying down to the service road below, police say.
Michael Anthony Flores, 37, was driving southbound in the 9300 block of North Freeway about 8:30 Friday night, HPD says.
His GMC Sierra drifted over to the shoulder and rammed into a Chevrolet Suburban that was parked there, with its driver under the hood trying to fix a mechanical problem. The impact threw the Suburban driver, whose identity is pending verification, off the elevated freeway onto the service road below, police say.
"Flores then fled the scene on foot, but was apprehended by an off-duty police officer a short distance away," HPD says. The victim was taken to Memorial Hermann Northwest Hospital, where he died.
Flores is charged with intoxication manslaughter.

Gruesome testimony of Pa. cop's death
A 2010 Audi acted like a "high-speed guillotine"
By Mensah M. Dean
The Philadelphia Daily News
PHILADELPHIA — The debris field created by the collision of a city police officer on a motorcycle and a drunk driver who been going the wrong way on July 8 "looked like a bomb had gone off on I-95," a state trooper said in court Wednesday.
The carnage described by Trooper Charles Burckhardt and video of the scene where Highway Patrol Officer Brian Lorenzo, 48, died instantly were too much for the officer's widow, Linda, who sobbed while being escorted from the preliminary hearing at the Criminal Justice Center.
The 2010 Audi driven by John Leck, 47, acted like a "high-speed guillotine" when it hit the officer head-on, tearing his abdomen open and severing his right leg, Burckhardt testified. Leck was ordered held for trial by Municipal Judge Teresa Carr Deni.

2002 Dodge Caravan Minivan eC Fwd 4dr Minivan (2.4L 4cyl 4A)
Bought new from dealer. Little things break too easy, outside sounds like it's inside, radio never worked right, air conditioning died in 2nd year, had to replace transmission (in 3rd year),fuel gage (4th year - broke down w/babies in the rain), front window seal (5th year) and rear side window seal (1st year). Will never buy a Dodge again!
Sliding doors, leg room and space for travel.
See above.
2002 Dodge Caravan Minivan SE Fwd 4dr Minivan (2.4L 4cyl 3A)
the car is excellent for the price, no to mauch staff inside, but enought. Versatility and you can carry big famly, thing ,.,,..,.
power and space
Vehicle was fine at first. Had to replace something for the air conditioner and you can not replace just the compressor you have to replace all the parts that go with it. Had to replace water pump twice. Had to replace front right tie rod. The back latch has not worked since I bought it. No big deal I could use my key. Now the lock for the latch does not work and I cannot get in the back. The check engine light comes on occasionally. This had something to do with the gas cap. On two occasions my lights went out when I was driving and the defrosters kicked on without having them on. Now the transmission has something wrong with it the mechanic says. I will never buy a Caravan again.
The seats come out and the bucket seats in the middle row
A latch release in the glove compartment or by the steering column
Got this minivan with incentives. It was a great unbeatable price. Just $16000 + tax/registration ( No power windows and locks and CD) but had automatic transmission , A/C and CassetePlayer. It's running great. I have 33,000 miles on it. Had to visit dealership for some weird wiper problems during peak winter but they fixed it. I follow schedule B maintenace from the manual and don't forsee any major issues till 75,000 miles. Lets wait and watch.
Use higher model of the GoodYear Tires. These tires had to be changed in 30,000 miles.
2002 Dodge Caravan Minivan Sport Fwd 4dr Minivan (3.3L 6cyl 4A)
We have driven our SWB Caravan Sport over 75,000 miles in 2.5 years. It has been virtually trouble free. The only exception was a sliding door issue that was covered by warrantee. It has met our every need from a local people hauler to a vacation and camping marvel. Terrific handling, very good fuel economy (consistently over 21 mpg combined), and great looks. My engineer daughter loves to drive it. We are passing it on to our son who now has two small kids, but replacing it with a 2005 Chrysler Town and Country Touring model. We are sold on this car.
Versatility. The Caravan serves as a little truck on many occassions. Reasonable price, especially compared to a Honda Odyssey with which we had a less favorable opinion. Sporty, good looks. It makes me smile to see it. And, lastly, reliablity. We treat it right and it returns the favor.
Considering the price, it is an amazing value. I do not know what else they could deliver. However, the 2005 models look even better.

Issa's ambitions for higher office
Issa's ambitions for higher office
In 2003, Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Vista, was deeply critical of California Gov. Gray Davis and spent $1.7 million of his own money on a successful recall effort. Issa was also among the first to declare an intention to run for governor. He was a member of Congress at the time.
In August 2003, Issa abruptly quit the gubernatorial race and withdrew in a tearful news conference, saying that Arnold Schwarzenegger's decision to run helped assure enough qualified candidates would seek the office.
In 1998, Issa ran for U.S. Senate in California. He narrowly lost in the primary to Matt Fong.

I am reporting to you that we almost made it. The Scrip Program gave $9,791.76 to the parish from the earnings of the sale of Scrip cards.
43 parishioners purchased regularly (at least once a month). An additional 11 parishioners purchased SCRIP cards occasionally (2-4 times a year). That is not even 7% of our registered parishioners. Can you imagine if 25% of parishioners used SCRIP cards? We would probably make $30,000 a year in earnings for the parish. WOW!
We refer to these as gift cards. Some people call them debit cards. Whatever the description, these cards provide the following benefits and more:
- An average of 5% profit on each card to the parish
- A safe way for you to purchase without needing to carry cash, credit cards or checkbook
- An extremely safe way to purchase items online without ever giving personal financial information, such as, credit card numbers or bank account information, simply using the number on the back of the card.
- A great way to budget by purchasing a given amount of cards for basic items each month,
If you would like to learn more about how these cards work, please contact Bonnie Moschkau by phone or email.

Michael McCabe is the New Principal for St. James School
Below is an excerpt from Michael's letter to the parents of our school.
I wanted to take a moment and let you know how grateful I am to serve as the next principal of St. JamesSchool. I want to thank you for such a warm welcome. I have met parents at school, and have had many people reach out via LinkedIn. I truly appreciate the enthusiasm and parent dedication towards St. James School. When I toured St. James School, I was greeted by students while they were engaged in their daily activities. It was great to see hands-on centers happening in the lower grades, intense discussions occurring in middle school social studies, and students using the public park located behind the school. It was exciting to see how "happy" the students appeared in their day-to-day school routine.
For the past nine years, I have been teaching and coaching in the K12 school setting. Most recently, I have been working to implement personalized learning school-wide at Walworth Elementary & Middle School.
In this role, I work with every student in the school. I am passionate about building leaders and
incorporating social justice into the curriculum, both of these aspects are already in place at St. James
School. My teaching experience includes: project-based learning, STEM, increasing literacy achievement,
and integrating technology as a learning tool. My leadership experiences include working in district-run
charter schools, where enrollment management was an ongoing task. I believe in showcasing the great
learning and vibrant community of St. James School. Until just a few days ago, I was the head boys'
basketball coach at Edgerton High School. I love basketball, and coaching is integrated into my leadership
My wife and I live in Edgerton. My wife Emmy is a high school art teacher. We have three daughters: Josie
is a seven-year-old, Margaret is a three-year-old, and Eliza is five months. My family is a big part of my
life and we belong to St. Joseph Parish in Edgerton, Wisconsin.

'Welcome to Rommel Airport': Germans to rename Stuttgart Airport after the son of Nazi general
Germany to rename Stuttgart airport 'Rommel' to honour son of well-known Nazi commander
- Manfred Rommel died last November aged 84
- He served as the mayor of Stuttgart for 22 years
- Under new plans the airport is to be renamed after him
- It is feared passengers will confuse the name with his father Erwin
- Field Marshal Erwin Rommel was a Nazis military leader
- Committed suicide in 1944 after being linked to a plot to assassinate Hitler
Manfred Rommel served as the mayor of Stuttgart for 22 years
German authorities are to rename Stuttgart Airport after the son of Nazi general Erwin Rommel.
Manfred Rommel, who died last November aged 84, served as the mayor of Stuttgart for 22 years.
Under new plans the airport is to be renamed after him.
However, it is feared passengers will confuse the name with his father Erwin, who was one of the top generals in Hitler's army.
The current mayor of the city described Manfred as someone who stood for 'more than anyone else, for tolerance, reconciliation and an open world.'
He added: 'His liberal stance was always paired with his efforts to build bridges out into the world.
'It is these international works that convinced us to name the airport after him.'
However, some have expressed their concerns at the renaming plans.
Field Marshal Rommel, the commander of the Wehrmacht's North African campaign, is widely regarded as one of the Nazis' most skilful military leaders.
He was forced to commit suicide in 1944 after he was linked to a failed attempt to assassinate Adolf Hitler.
Manfred Rommel remembers his father telling him he had been ordered by Hitler to commit suicide before he was driven away for the final time.
He was just 15 at the time and following his father's death surrendered to Allied forces.
Despite this, he went on to forge a successful career as mayor of Stuttgart.
He also became friends with the sons of his father's two greatest enemies - Field Marshal Lord Montgomery of Alamein, and General George Paton.
Manfred Rommel, left, pictured with his father Erwin Rommel, right, who was one of Hitler's generals
One person online who remained anonymous wrote: 'I would be utterly ashamed to visit friends in Israel with the name 'Rommel' emblazoned across the tag on my case.'
'The name is not suitable, because it is reminiscent of the African Rommel, most know only the name Rommel as Field Marshal Rommel.
'His son is not not nearly as well known abroad,' a user said on the website t-online.de.
Under new plans the Stuttgart airport is to be renamed after Manfred Rommel
While another wrote on airliners.de: 'I think it's extremely insensitive to assign the name Rommel to a German airport.
'The passengers will carry the new name of Stuttgart airport into the world and not have to think further about which Rommel is meant.'
The city's authorities have said they would probably name the airport 'Manfred Rommel' or 'Mayor Rommel' to avoid confusion.

This machine is working great, simple menus which are easy to use, no fan noise, records as set including series link and so far we have made little use of the massive disc space. So very pleased with it.
Humax 9300TB 500GB PVR Hard Drive Recorder Freeview Twin Tuner
It seems like there are so many problems with all these TV recorders. Maybe the technology is just too new or something. But if you are going to get a TV recorder then I would recommend buying through Amazon, because their customer service is top and even though I had my Sagem for over a month Amazon still took it back. This Humax 500gb is not sold by Amazon but by a company through Amazon and thus does not have the brilliant service and return policy that Amazon has. Since these TV recorders seem to be so prone to messing up I would definitely recommend going through a company that has proven its great customer service like Amazon. I'm going to try and buy the Humax again, because there just is not much else on the market. Though I'm going to go with the Humax 320gb this time because Amazon directly sells that one.
Even the channels it does find freeze and fade in and out.
Would be great piece if kit if it worked am going to persevere and try a second one...will update
Update ....
Replacement now received and is working as it should. The instructions seem clearer on this one and channel set up worked first time. When it works it is good so if you get adodgy one send for a replacement straight away!
A Digital TV Recorder that forgets to record TV programs is somewhat disappointing - this thing has a nasty habit of working perfectly for several weeks and then suddenly decides to dump its recording schedule for no apparent reason. I've lost count of the number of times this has happened, resulting in missed programs and much bad language. Clearly Humax didn't test the firmware adequately in their rush to get it onto the market, and they also can't be bothered to fix the firmware over the air. A shame, because it could have been such a good product.
I'm going to dust off my ancient, outdated, but 100% reliable Sony and this piece of junk is going in the bin where it belongs. I won't be buying anything else made by Humax.
My current Bush freeview box has a dying hard drive, so I now need to find a different freeview box within my price range to replace it (I was really counting on having one of these Humax boxes). I am tempted to take a leap of faith and purchase the higher end Humax HDR Fox T2 - if anyone knows of it's reliability etc. please comment - it seems to have slightly better reviews than this product, but I do not want to spend a lot more money on this model only to end up sending a third box back! I was under the impression that Humax led the world of set-top boxes, but my confidence in them has definitely been shaken.

Cal Poly 63, Loyola Marymount 60
SAN LUIS OBISPO, Calif. -- Dylan Royer's 3-pointer with 0.7 seconds remaining gave Cal Poly a 63-60 victory against Loyola Marymount in a BracketBusters game on Saturday night.
Brian Bennett scored 23 points and Chris Eversley 13 for the Mustangs (13-12). Royer had 12 points, and his decisive shot was just the second make in 18 3-point attempts by Cal Poly.
Anthony Ireland had 19 points and Taylor Walker 12 for the Lions (8-20), who suffered a buzzer-beater loss for the second straight game and third time this month.
Loyola took a 60-57 lead on Chase Flint's 3-pointer with 1:47 remaining. The Mustangs tied it on Eversley's three-point play with just over a minute to play.
Cal Poly regained possession, and the ball was deflected by the Lions out of bounds and under the basket with 2.7 seconds left. Royer came off a curl as Walker slipped on the floor, leaving Royer wide open.

Stealing God's Thunder: Benjamin Franklin's Lightning Rod and the Invention of Americaby Philip Dray
View All Available Formats & Editions
"We forget, living in this era of heavily patented research and closely guarded results, how wonderfully exciting the scientific world used to be. In Stealing God's Thunder, the story of Benjamin Franklin's invention of the lightening rod and the resulting consequences, that sense of wonder and excitement and even fear comes beautifully to life. Philip Dray does a remarkable job of illuminating the ever-fascinating Franklin and, more than that, the way that he, and his invention, helped create the new scientific world."
–Deborah Blum, author of Love at Goon Park: Harry Harlow and the Science of Affection
Stealing God's Thunder is a concise, richly detailed biography of Benjamin Franklin viewed through the lens of his scientific inquiry and its ramifications for American democracy. Today we think of Benjamin Franklin as a founder of American independence who also dabbled in science. But in Franklin's day it was otherwise. Long before he was an eminent statesman, he was famous for his revolutionary scientific work, especially his experiments with lightning and electricity.
Pulitzer Prize finalist Philip Dray uses the evolution of Franklin's scientific curiosity and empirical thinking as a metaphor for America's struggle to establish its fundamental values. Set against the backdrop of the Enlightenment and America's pursuit of political equality for all, Stealing God's Thunder recounts how Franklin unlocked one of the greatest natural mysteries of his day, the seemingly unknowable powers of electricity and lightning. Rich in historic detail and based on numerous primary sources, Stealing God's Thunder is a fascinating original look at one of our most beloved and complex founding fathers.
From the Hardcover edition.

The New York Times
–Joseph J. Ellis, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Founding Brothers
"Absorbing . . . There are other Franklins–the entrepreneur, the diplomat, the statesman, the architect of independence– but in Franklin the scientist, Mr. Dray may have found the happiest one of all."
–The New York Times
"Delightful . . . Dray offers a survey of Ben Franklin's scientific career, describing both the ridicule and glory that his experiments inspired."
–The Wall Street Journal
"A masterful glimpse of . . . Franklin's work [and] a captivating cultural history of Franklin's America."
–Publishers Weekly (starred review)

Chapter 1
Benjamin Franklin was born in Boston on January 17, 1706, the fifteenth of the seventeen children of Josiah Franklin, and the eighth child of his father's second wife, Abiah Folger. The Franklins lived on Milk Street, across from the South Church, where Josiah was a leading member of the congregation. Ben was carried across the street and baptized there on the day of his birth. The Franklins ran a soap- and candle-making business, and Josiah was also active in the community; he had served as a constable of the town watch and also in the public markets, neighbors sometimes came to him for advice, and the son would recall that his father's "great Excellence lay in a sound Understanding and solid Judgment in prudential Matters, both in private and publick Affairs."
While still a toddler, Ben struck his parents as having the bearing of a scholar. "I do not remember when I could not read," Franklin later said. An uncle (also named Benjamin) who resided with the Franklins and took a special interest in his namesake perceived something remarkable about his clever nephew, and wrote of the boy, "If the Buds are so precious what may we expect when the fruit is ripe?" Josiah prided himself that his youngest son might possess the makings of a clergyman, although Ben's unsuitability for the role manifested itself early on in ways large and small, such as when he suggested to his father that if all the meat being salted for the family's winter provisions was blessed at once, the family might avoid having to say grace at each meal and "it would be a vast saving of time." In any event, the prerequisite education for the clerical calling proved too costly, and after completing barely two years of school, Ben was put to work in the family shop.
Boston in the early 1700s was a thriving port of about ten thousand inhabitants, the third largest shipping mecca in the British empire, with fifteen shipyards and hundreds of wharves that teemed night and day with the loading and off-loading of goods and passengers. Ben was smitten with the magnificent sight of ships—the packets, cargo vessels, and men-of-war that stood shoulder-to-shoulder at the docks and whose vast sails filled the sky. The town's seafaring character, with its inlets, rivers, bays, ponds, and coves, engendered in him a lifelong affection for boats and the sea. "Living near the water, I was in and about it, learnt early to swim well, and to manage boats," he recalled.
As the adolescent leader of a ragtag army of boys who played around the large mill pond that began just beyond his father's shop, Ben became dissatisfied with the speed he could obtain through his regular swimming strokes and experimented with ways to improve his efficiency by attaching "palettes" (flippers) to his hands and feet. Already a deft observer of the movements of air, water, and wind, he also conceived of a most uncommon experiment, flying a kite while submerged in the water. "Having then engaged another boy to carry my clothes around the pond, I began to cross the pond with my kite, which carried me quite over without the least fatigue and with the greatest pleasure imaginable." As the kite drew him swiftly from one side of the pond to the other, a band of excited youngsters ran along the shore, shouting and encouraging his progress.
One of Josiah Franklin's other sons, also named Josiah, had been lost at sea, and the father, concerned about Ben's evident fondness for ships, sought to head off any seafaring inclinations the young boy might have. But Ben was clearly apathetic about work in the family trade, and the candle shop was not without dangers of its own: The boiling vat Ben was made to stir was the very one in which another brother, an infant named Ebenezer, had earlier drowned. "Under Apprehensions that if he did not find [a job] for me more agreeable, I should break away and get to Sea, as his Son Josiah had done to his great Vexation," Franklin later wrote, Josiah determined to establish Ben in a trade. After a brief, unhappy turn at a cutlery shop, Ben signed papers of apprenticeship to a printing business owned by his older brother James.
James Franklin, nine years older than Ben, was a worldly sophisticate by Boston standards. In 1717 he had visited London, where he had been inspired by English satirists such as Joseph Addison, the Irish-born Jonathan Swift, and Daniel Defoe, and by the chatter of anti-authoritarian opinion in London's Grub Street coffeehouses. James probably only marginally knew his kid brother and new apprentice, although it immediately became clear that Ben possessed the attributes necessary for work in a print shop—manual dexterity, mental quickness, and physical strength.
As Ben would remember, "In a little time I made great proficiency in the business, and became a useful hand to my brother." He also dipped hungrily into James's library, devouring books on arithmetic and navigation as well as the many pamphlets and sermons James printed that argued prevailing notions of theology, Deism, and natural philosophy. He read the Third Earl of Shaftesbury's writings urging moderation in human affairs and an end to religious zealotry, John Locke's An Essay Concerning Human Understanding, Daniel Defoe's Essay on Projects, and Cotton Mather's Bonifacius: An Essay Upon the Good—books that "perhaps gave me a Turn of Thinking that had an Influence on some of the principal future Events of my Life."
In these books, Ben discovered a world of ideas to absorb and act upon. By the time he was a teenager, he had declared himself a vegetarian, perfected a "scientific" method of swimming, adopted Socratic inquiry as a means of arriving at truth, and embraced Deism, the belief that the world had been made by a gifted supreme being who was no longer a living feature of the cosmos. This deus absconditus, apparently pleased with his creation, had left it to its own devices; the Deists believed that God's endowment to mankind was reason and the practice of benevolence toward others, and that Truth resided not in biblical aphorism but in nature.
The age in which Ben Franklin grew up, the early Enlightenment, was a time of expanding faith in individual experience and self-determination, an era of enlarged human curiosity, when advances in natural philosophy, science, and technology were curbing man's reliance on magical or religious explanations for life's hardships. Like all such epochs of cultural transition, it arose from sources both subtle and diverse, but certainly the English philosophers of the seventeenth century and their Scientific Revolution had helped set the stage. Its founding concepts lay in the ideas of Francis Bacon, who promoted the value of experimentation and promised that work in pure science would lead to useful applications, and John Locke, who urged that true knowledge came not from a perfected obedience to inherited beliefs but from mankind's environment, as well as from the instruments that made new forms of observation possible, such as the microscope.
Hovering majestically above all was Isaac Newton, the guiding scientific thinker of his day, who showed in his Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica, published in 1687 and known as the Principia, that the functions of the universe were governed by mathematics. Copernicus had made the sun, not Earth, the center of the universe; Johannes Kepler described the planets' orbits as ellipses; but where others glimpsed a corner of the tapestry, Newton saw that the whole—Earth and heavens alike—was a single system, bound by physical laws. "The new [Newtonian] mechanics was the first example of a modern science in its full development," historian Dirk J. Struik notes, "equipped with a convincing set of axioms, a logical method, a developed technique and the power of forecasting events. Even those who could not master the details could admire and follow its general approach." As Voltaire, who helped introduce Newton's ideas in France, observed, "Very few people read Newton, but everybody talks about him."
Such reorganization of human thought did not come altogether easily to the Boston of young Ben Franklin. New Englanders still lived to a great extent in "an enchanted universe"—a place of dark, impenetrable forests, vengeful thunderstorms, portentous comets, witches, and ghosts. A belief in Providential events and omens was common, as was the idea that an ongoing battle between Satan and God ruled many features of daily life. For people who suffered from a myriad of poorly understood health issues, whose children died in great numbers, and who had no other means of comprehending the phenomenal world, Providence and its signs offered at least the surety that man's earthly trials had some purpose. "In place of unacceptable moral chaos," writes the scholar Keith Thomas, "was erected the edifice of God's omnipotent sovereignty," a presence that seemed particularly reasonable given the Puritan assumption that God had a special interest in the fate of New England.
"Without doubt the Lord Jesus hath a peculiar respect unto this place, and for this people," preached the influential Boston cleric Increase Mather. "Christ by a wonderful Providence hath dispossessed Satan, who reigned . . . in these Ends of the Earth for Ages . . . and here the Lord hath caused . . . New Jerusalem to come down from Heaven."
This "peculiar respect," however, contingent on the Puritans' steadiness of faith, and known as the New England or Puritan covenant, seemed depleted of late. A bloody conflict with the Indians in 1675–78, known as King Philip's War, had demoralized Massachusetts, Maine, Connecticut, and Rhode Island, and forced the settlers to recognize that they were capable of violent savagery equal to any the "savages" could offer. Fires among Boston's wooden houses and narrow lanes had twice turned the city into a tinderbox, and in 1678 a deadly smallpox epidemic arrived.
In August 1682 a bright, portentous sign (soon to be known as "Halley's comet") crossed the New England sky, the mysterious celestial visitor raising what Increase Mather called "Heaven's Alarm to the World." In 1684 the long-standing charter of the Massachusetts Bay Colony was abrogated by the English crown, diminishing the hegemony of the Puritans and stirring political uncertainty. With disillusionment spreading, clergymen worried about increased Sabbath-breaking and even whispered about a rise in bestiality, a trespass so Godless it was punishable by death. Finally, in 1692–93, the infamous Salem witch trials occurred.
In the witchcraft cases, twenty individuals were put to death, many on what was known as "spectral evidence," confessions by those who said they were afflicted by specters, or accusations by people who claimed to have seen their neighbors assume the forms of devils and witches. Cotton Mather, Increase's son and a ranking clergyman in his own right, was asked by the judges to write a defense of the need for the trials. Cotton made a nominal argument against the future reliance on spectral evidence, but he was unable to keep himself from defending the Puritan authorities as he lambasted others for Sabbath-breaking, adultery, and drunkenness. Public unease over the executions, and new doubts about the legality of spectral evidence as proof, helped lessen the likelihood of further witch trials, but Mather's arrogant, scolding rant was long remembered.
Ben's introduction to the new intellectual currents crossing the Atlantic, gained among his brother's books, was timely, for in the spring of 1721 a crisis arrived that would test some of these principles and plunge Boston, the Mathers, and both Franklin brothers into a maelstrom.
Men and women of the early eighteenth century called smallpox "the speckled monster." Of all illnesses it was perhaps the most horrific, turning its victims into hideous sufferers, their limbs scarred, their faces suppurating with diseased pustules. Several earlier outbreaks in Boston had led to strict rules for the quarantining of incoming ships and their crews, but there had been no local epidemic since 1702, and by 1721 many of the former precautions had been allowed to lapse.
Thus an entire generation had grown up with no exposure to the disease when, on April 22, an epidemic rode into Boston Harbor aboard the H.M.S. Seahorse, en route from the West Indies. Within a few weeks the first cases of "the pox" were reported. Panic spread quickly across the Charles River to Cambridge, where Harvard canceled its June commencement exercises. As the disease claimed more victims, Governor Samuel Shute called for a day of fasting and humiliation on June 27 to combat whatever misdeeds "have stirred up the Anger of Heaven against us."
No one watched these events more closely than Cotton Mather, minister at Boston's North Church. In 1713, Mather had written the first layman's guide to the treatment of measles, only to see his second wife, Elizabeth, three of his children, and his maid succumb to the disease—all in the same month. Mather had already lost his three oldest children to illness in 1687, 1696, and 1699, and his first wife, Abigail, had died in the smallpox epidemic of 1702. In total, he would lose two wives and thirteen of his fifteen children to disease (or, in one case, a birth defect), being survived by only two, Samuel and the roguish Increase, Jr., known as "Creasy," who had recently devastated his father by dropping out of Harvard and "getting an Harlot big with a Bastard."
For some time Mather had nurtured an interest in a little-known method of disease prevention known as inoculation, which he had first learned of from his slave, Onesimus, who had come to Mather in 1707 as a gift from his congregation. Other slaves confirmed Onesimus's claim that, in Africa, inoculation—inserting a small amount of diseased material in a vein to promote a mild case of smallpox so a greater one would be avoided—was practiced and had proven effective. In 1713 Mather had become one of the first Americans elected to the Royal Society of London, the most prestigious scientific organization in the world. (Its founding in 1662 was inspired by Bacon's tenet that science be a collaborative undertaking. The Society's motto, "Nullius in verba" ["On the word of no one!"], honored the idea that science must rest on observation.) Cotton sent eighty-two letters describing American natural curiosities and his experiments in corn hybridization to the Society between 1712 and 1724.
Mather saw not dissonance in the twin callings of science and faith, but a powerful unification. "[Natural] Philosophy is no Enemy, but a mighty and wondrous Incentive to Religion," he wrote. "The Whole World is indeed a Temple of God, built and fill'd by that Almighty Architect."
In 1699, the Royal Society had learned of early inoculation procedures in China, and beginning in spring 1714, accounts of inoculation began to appear in its publication, the Philosophical Transactions. A report by Dr. Emanuel Timonius, a graduate of Oxford, was paired in an edition of 1716 with an account by Dr. Jacobus Pylarinus, who had learned of inoculation being practiced in Turkey. Mather also may have heard reports of Lady Mary Wortley Montagu, wife of the British consul in Constantinople, who reported in 1717 that Turkish peasant women held "smallpox parties" for "engrafting" others with a minute amount of smallpox matter.
In England, inoculation, known as "buying the small pocks," was tested on prison inmates and began to gather adherents, although not quickly enough for Mather. "How does it come to pass that no more is done to bring this operation into experiment and into Fashion in England?" he demanded of a London correspondent in 1716. "For my own part, if I should live to see the Small-Pox again enter into our city, I would immediately procure a consult of our Physicians, to Introduce a Practice [inoculation], which may be of so very happy a Tendency."
Mather was one of the few people in North America who had examined pustules of smallpox through a microscope, and even as from his pulpit he continued to deliver fiery jeremiads about sin and the Providential calamities that awaited nonbelievers, he quietly came to embrace a most rational notion, later to be known as "germ theory," the idea that pathogenic animalcules carry disease. "Every part of matter is peopled," he wrote. "Every green leaf swarms with inhabitants. The surfaces of animals are covered with other animals. Yea, the most solid bodies, even marble itself, have innumerable cells, which are crowded with imperceptible inmates." These tiny animals, breathed in by humans, he believed, could attack the body's organs. By receiving inoculation in the arm, however, a person gave his body's natural defenses an opportunity to confront the invader at a safe, manageable remove, before the organs could be reached.

Lets drop the pretend shock over these kind of comments...
"Oh yeah, maybe he's not the best guy, and after a while, you found out things about this guy over in Europe, and he's not so good of a guy after all."
These are all the same talking points Glen, Rush and Neil use on their shock radio shows daily. None of this is new. I wish we had sunk to new levels, but we haven't. The far right has been trolling the depths of the gutter for some time ( as the far left has been dong likewise. People have become addicted to drama.... the vast majority of our entertainment is drama based... and it just flows over into our daily lives. Next week, Obama will be Stalin, with claims he intends to create work camps for those who will not bend to his will..... its all there already. Just google it.
It is truly sad this is what American society has become. Santorum and Romney can't run on what they will do, rather their platforms are driven by just how bad the other choices are. I will likely never vote for Ron Paul, but at least he campaigns on what he will do. What a novel concept.

Macedonian and Albanian teachers prepare joint history of 2001 conflictBreaking News
The project included 25 history teachers from 14 high schools with Macedonian and Albanian instruction, who have prepared a joint version on the 2001 conflict following a one-year period of seminars and training. The publication, which is issued in Macedonian and Albanian languages also includes the two radical versions on events.
The project authors expect that such presentation of the armed conflict, which is widely experienced as a conflict between Macedonians and Albanians, would contribute to the transformation of the role of history from a factor that deepens the gap into a bridge between the Macedonian and Albanian communities.
EU Ambassador, Erwan Fouere emphasized Thursday that the history is very important for the Balkans, which had suffered much in the past. According to him, Macedonia went through crisis in 2001, but due to the political courage and vision of the leadership, it managed to overcome ethnic divisions.
"December 16 decision of the EU to grant Macedonia candidate status is a formal recognition of that political vision and commitment", Fouere stressed.
Both Mirjana Najcevska from the Helsinki Committee and Violeta Petrova-Beska from the Center for Human Rights and Conflict Resolution emphasized that the project's objective was double. The project should help in the creation of model of communication among professors in the preparation of materials for history instruction books at all education levels; secondly, it should present the process of preparing a joint lesson treating problematic events with argumentative presentation of positions, leaving space for critical acceptance and contemplation of things, especially among young generations.

Kelly Clarkson covered the ultimate prom song, Madonna's "Crazy For You", in Bossier, Louisiana recently on her Stronger tour.
Of course, Kelly was about to share the Super Bowl stage with the Material Girl, which prompted Kelly to talk about her a bit. She was hoping to hear some of the "old stuff" at her half time show. (Which we did!)
Kelly called "Crazy for You" a "skating song" and recounted how she "never fit in" at middle and high school. "Wha wha!" she teased. Kelly…you're so cute!
Check it out below. It's a fun performance.
