I am 40. I have a 10 y/o DS, 8 y/o DD, and am 8 months pregnant w/ our 3rd child. I am happily remarried. I'm trying to find other moms to connect with. I feel like I don't fit in w/ most moms b/c I'm older than most, work PT (SAHM tend to act rude to me b/c they "really love their kids more rhan me b/c they give so much of themselves"), kind of common sense type of mom (if they r hungry kid will eventually eat, etc), I want my children to be responsible adults but won't do everything for them, etc. I find it hard to meet ladies like myself in the little bit of free time I have. So now I wonder how I'll meet other moms for my soon to be new baby to play w/ in a year or two. I moved to my town about 4 years ago. I notice most moms are in mid 30s or less. So how do u find other moms in their 40s when u don't have alot of time?
Good website for moms 40 and over?

Sorry, I am a couple of years younger than you are probably (not 40's yet) but I can relate to you. It is hard to communicate with some much younger moms, which does not mean that there is something wrong with them (or us) but because it is a different worldview. It is a different generation and their approach is very different. Plus, indeed some young SAHMs cannot relate to an older person with a professional career. I am finding mom's of my age and career level among my peers at work or within the local professional communities (professional organizations).

Released: Nov 01st, 2004
Running Time: 112
Director: Axel Braun
Company: New Sensations
Cast: Ben English, Missy Monroe, Alicia Rhodes, Billy Banks, Reina Leone, Emily Da Vinci, Mr. Pete, Mika Tan
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: Gonzo
In your Digital Sin section, natch.
Director Axel Braun goes straight into the fucking and into the fucking assholes with mostly no tease or body worship, with camerawork that is constantly in motion. The result? A bunch of pretty girls, who do really great scenes, but who never hit the mark because there's nothing to bond the viewer to the action.
Mika Tan growls and barks her way through a great anal scene with Mr. Pete. Fan favorite Emily Da Vinci delivers some solid gagging on Ben English's cock before their ass fuck on a nice cushy bed. Billy Banks doesn't always seem up to the Alicia Rhodes, but she's still hot as fuck to watch. Curvy Reina Leone and Pete do a great scene in a bubble bath. It's easily the best scene here with Leone cumming over and over on Pete's dick in her ass.

I think that you guys have been doing some great work lately. I was very glad to hear that the renaming project has been done. It's excellent news. Also good to know that 1.0 is also on the way. Good work and keep it up.
I think that you guys have been doing some great work lately. I was very glad to hear that the renaming project has been done. It's excellent news. Also good to know that 1.0 is also on the way. Good work and keep it up.
I'll second that. I can hardly wait for 1.0. I'm drooling in anticipation.... :-P
Thanks! Right about now is the best time to request features you'd like in 1.0.
LJ like comments from me. :)
Can I request a better user system that can determine what levels can see what posts? For example, only users above level X can see these particular posts (or this particular category)? It seems like such a good user system has very little purpose right now..
My requests - in no particular order:
- localization :-)
- instead of setting the number of entries per page I'd like to be able to set the maximum number of lines, that way the page will always be about the same length (probably not too many will want such a feature I fear)
- a statistical module that tells me who came when from where and viewed what
- multiple categories for one entry
Just wanted to get this out somewhere :-)
Great work with wordpress so far, just add my ideas and it will be unbeatable ;)
I just downloaded latest, and I noticed that index.php still point to the b2 filenames. Also, all the b2 files are still included in the download. Will those files be eliminated with 1.0? I don't want to have b2 files on my server if they aren't needed.
Otherwise, looks like the renaming project went great.
The current index.php in CVS has only one instance of 'b2' in it - where it calls start_b2();
The 'b2' prefixed RSS/RDF files do permanent redirects to the new 'wp-' prefixed files.
RSS files with their own CSS so that they can look visually appealing in the browser by themselves. :)
EG: http://www.literarymoose.info/=/literarymoose-css.xml
Yes, Localization would be so great! I think that is a very important issue. I would even volunteer to translate a release into German...
Joshua - are you sure you have the latest from CVS?
The links are already changed, the old files are still there with the redirects for the people who have already subscribed using RSS aggregators.
@Joshua: as Alex pointed out, the redirects are important for those sites that have been running an older version fof WP. Visitors of such sites, who have subscribed to the "old version RSS feeds" (old version means http://yourdomain.com/yourwppath/b2rss.php for example) will get a redirection to the rss-feed with the new name - it will prevent newsreaders to report 404 errors after the installation of the new WP release. This allows a smooth transition for everyone (you and your readers), which is a very important thing in my eyes.
good work guys!
I used the latest link on the download section to download the tar file from cvs. Did this on Tuesday.
The latest link in the download section gets the latest release not anything else. To get the CVS you have to follow the instructions for checking the files out of the CVS.
Cool, just successfuly re-synced up with cvs. The admin interface looks like it's in the middle of something (lots of things didn't look quite right compared to 10 days or so back). And it took me at least an hour, having to deal with all the filename changes.
Oh, not to mention that it's a pain to merge files where I've changed overlapping areas of code. ;) That and my index.php, which I basically had to fixup by hand.
But, looking good otherwise. Now I just need to write my subcategories thing -- is the old post_category field dead and gone? ...as that's already there, and would serve my needs perfectly (unique per post...).
A built in News Feeds aggregator! I'm sick of zfeeder. I want one that fits with my blog template. I'm too lazy to write up code lol. Right now I have to rely on http://bakshi.us/newsfeeds to pick up news from my friends sites. Oh, and a way to import posts from .72 to 1.0 when its released, but I suppose that has allready been put in. I haven't checked that yet.
You're not going to have to import, it's just going to be a straight upgrade.
A integrated news aggregator is something I've considered in the past, and I think there is a lot of potential there. For right now we're focusing on making it the very best blogging software possible, and we have a few things yet to do on that front.
Just wondering in regards to the file naming and other file-related things...are the CSS files going into their own folder?
No I wasn't planning on moving the CSS files.
Cool...just wonderin'...
Comments for Links, for the love of everything holy! :)
Also, a Kottke-like approach to content wouldn't be a bad idea. I don't know if it's already possible, but I doubt it...
i'd like to see the ability to add a field in the post crete thing in the admin panel which asks for an image and it'll upload it to the server directly and be able to call that image seperatly from the content, so like that could be a top dialy photo kind of thing and the text could be seperate so your text could span 7 days but ahve only the latest photo on the page.
Hope that makes any sense at all.

There are many reasons I look forward to snail mail. There is something to be said for people who take the time to still pen a letter to the editor by hand, and — believe it or not — letters to the editor still come in that form, thank goodness.
From time to time I complain to those within earshot at the office (who most of the time have no choice but to listen), about a handwritten letter to the editor that has all the style of a piece of refrigerator art.
However, there is one regular author of snail mail letters to the editor that I can always count on for a compliment, criticism or observation that makes my day.
Three to four times a week, a letter to the editor arrives in my office
mailbox — a real mailbox, not an email inbox — from Nona Goodman of Hartley.
What is so special about Nona?
While I call her letters "letters to the editor," which I guess they are, Nona has no desire for most of them to be published. In other words, Nona just wants to write about a topic that has fired her up that particular day. She isn't interested in the fame — or infamy — of having a letter to the editor published.
Some of Nona's letters contain articles related to an AGN Media editorial, sometimes with an opposing viewpoint, sometimes not. She'll also send editorial cartoons from different publications, in addition to other content.
While most of the time Nona's letters agree with the viewpoints expressed in an AGN Media editorial, there are times when I get dinged — a little. Even then, though, Nona includes a large smiley face along with her signature.
I can always count on Nona to pick out the hot topic of the day, provide her 2 cents worth, and then grab a-soon-to-be 49-cent stamp and fire off an old-fashioned letter written, most of the time, on yellow legal pad paper.
In this day and age of digital communication that allows readers to voice their opinions in a matter of seconds (and there is nothing wrong with that), it is still cool to get an old-school letter to the editor, especially on a regular basis.
Thanks, Nona, and keep 'em coming.
A pat on the back
To Jason Brice of Amarillo and Gary Farrant of Doncaster, England: Speaking of letters to the editor, see the letter on this page or on amarillo.com from Mr. Farrant, and you'll see why both get well-deserved a pat on the back. I had to include this comment from an email I received from Mr. Farrant: "My wife and I encountered nothing but kind and friendly people in Texas, and it should not have surprised me that Jason Brice took the trouble to return my licence ... a typically Texan selfless act."
A kick in the pants
To the U.S. Senate: Several media pointed out an inaccuracy about the Second Amendment on, of all places, the U.S. Senate website. As of late last week, the website had an "explanation" questioning whether an American's right to firearms applies to individuals or only a militia.
The Second Amendment: "A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed."
If the founding fathers intended only a militia to have firearms, why is the phrase "the right of the people" even included in the Second Amendment?

Grade 2-6–Twenty poems written during the Harlem Renaissance are perfectly paired with exuberant oil paintings. Familiar poets such as Countee Cullen, Langston Hughes, James Weldon Johnson, and Claude McKay are joined by less immediately recognized names such as Effie Lee Newsome, Dorothy Vena Johnson, and Gladys May Caseley-Hayford. Their collective work, firmly grounded in this exciting explosion of African-American culture, affirms the joy of life and of personal growth and discovery. Madeline G. Allisons Children of the Sun reminds youngsters that God in his Wisdom gave you hue/Of which Hes proud–yes, proud of you! Some selections brim with hope, such as Langston Hughess To You. To dream of vast horizons of the soul/Through dreams made whole,/Unfettered free–help me! and Georgia Douglas Johnsons Your World, which is as big as you make it. Riley-Webbs vibrant, colorful illustrations employ a swirling contemporary realism in their joyful depictions of children exploring and interacting with their world. An introduction about the Harlem Renaissance is followed by brief biographical entries on the poets. Whether shared as a read-aloud to early elementary students or enjoyed individually by older readers, this collection provides delightful interaction with winsome words and images that will enhance poetry curricula and charm its perusers.

From Booklist
Gr. 3-5. Twenty poems with immediate child appeal celebrate the Harlem Renaissance in this picture-book anthology, with rhythmic double-page pictures showing young people in every scene. The famous names are here, including Langston Hughes, but several of the poets are not well known. In a fine introduction, Muse points out that along with poems reflecting urban realism, there are many pastoral poems, perhaps as "an attempt to transcend the difficulties of city life." With the pride in "black like me" and the celebration of diversity, there is also Countee Cullen's "Tableau," about the hostility toward a friendship between a black boy and a white one, "locked arm in arm." Some pictures leave little space for the words, but using swooping lines and brilliant colors, Riley-Webb shows kids on the street, at a city window, and connected with forest, water, and sky. This is a book for reading aloud and talking about in the classroom, in the library, and at home. Hazel Rochman

Animal Welfare Groups Push US to Classify All Leopards as Endangered
Raising the protection level for leopards would severely curb hunters' ability to import body parts as trophies
Conservationists have demanded a crackdown on the import to the US of leopards killed by American hunters, in an attempt to replicate the protections introduced in the wake of the furor caused by the death of famed lion Cecil.
Photo by Scott Presnell
A coalition of animal welfare groups have petitioned the US Fish & Wildlife Service (FWS) to classify all leopards as endangered, The Guardian can reveal. This would severely curtail the ability of American hunters to bring home "trophies", such as leopard skulls, paws or skins, from hunting trips to Africa.
America is a leading collector of leopard parts. According to a Humane Society analysis of data from the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species, US trophy hunters imported parts of 5,575 leopards between 2005 and 2014.
It is unclear how many leopards remain across Africa and Asia but the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) has warned the species has "declined substantially" due to habitat loss, paucity of prey and targeted poaching for sham medicinal products in Southeast Asia and China that can generate $3,000 for a leopard carcass.
The IUCN states that "poorly managed trophy hunting adds to pressure on local leopard populations". In 2016, South Africa stopped the hunting of leopards, over concerns that untold damage was being wrought.
Currently, the FWS classifies leopards in northern Africa as endangered and sub-Saharan animals south of Gabon and Kenya as threatened. This distinction, drawn up in 1982 following lobbying by hunters, means that much less scrutiny is placed upon leopard imports from the southern half of Africa.
Buoyed by the success in getting lions classed as endangered last year following the controversial demise of Cecil, a famous Zimbabwean lion who was shot by a dentist from Minnesota, conservation groups want the FWS to extend endangered species protection to all leopards.
The petition states that leopards' range "is in alarming and precipitous decline, including in southern Africa where leopards are currently listed as threatened." It adds that the survival of the species is being risked by "Americans engaging in unsustainable trophy hunting and international trade of African leopards."
The official request, lodged with the FWS on Monday, includes testimony from …more

Squeezed for Space in the Vast Arctic
Saami reindeer herders hard-pressed by the conflux of rapid climate change and rapid human development
Where are you camped?" asks Mikkel Sara, an elderly Saami reindeer herder as I sit with him watching his family's herd of some 2,000 reindeer graze.
"On Rypefjell," I reply.
"Aha. On the Northwest end of the lake, in a shallow dug out?" he asks.
"Exactly," I remark, a little surprised. I had understood that the Saami were intimate with the land, but this was uncanny.
Photo by Jonathan Frænkel-Eidse
"A beautiful spot," he says somewhat nostalgically, and continues to consider the herd for a long moment in silence. His nine-year-old grandchild dodges adeptly amongst the reindeer, chasing and catching the calves by the antlers. His son stands to the side giving pointers, passing on the ancient knowledge of the trade.
"That campsite you are staying on was my father's and grandfather's summer camp. I grew up there," Sara says, returning from his quiet reflections. "But we don't use it anymore, there's too much development."
I've made my way to this northernmost region of Norway to meet with indigenous Saami herders like Sara, who have subsisted in this unsympathetic Arctic environment for generations by fishing, hunting, and herding reindeer. Although their way of life is in many ways dissimilar and incomparable to the societies to the south, I've travelled here hoping that their story will provide some insight into the challenges that may lie in wait for the rest of the world in the face of climate change.
Much of the research and media reports we read about climate change talk about the dire, not-so-far-off effects of changes that are unprecedented in human history. A constant barrage of this information can lead to the nerve-wracking experience of "eco-anxiety" — a feeling of being perched upon the precipice of ecological calamity, peering into the dark unknown. I feel that we need something more tangible, a real-world taste of what lies ahead, in order to cope with this kind of eco-anxiety. What if we could locate a unique geographic area that is undergoing dramatic climate change right now — one that is home to a group of people who are facing these challenges head on?
The Arctic is one of the world's so-called climate change "hotspots." Here, temperature increases double the global average …more

One Man's Legal Quest to Change How We View Animals
In Review: Unlocking the Cage
Given that I've written in great detail about Steven Wise and the Nonhuman Rights Project's efforts to get some animals recognized as "persons," the basic premise and much of the convoluted legal gymnastics showcased in Unlocking the Cage were not new to me. Nevertheless, even for someone well informed on the subject matter and plotline, the documentary is a compelling watch.
Photo courtesy of Pennebaker Heeds Films/HBO
The 91-minute film by celebrated documentarians Chris Hegedus and DA Pennebaker (The War Room, Monterey Pop, Don't Look Back, and Kings of Pastry) follows Wise, founder of NhRP, and his colleagues over the course of three years as they file the first lawsuits aimed at changing the legal status of animals from "things" with no rights to a "person" who possesses, at the very least, the basic rights to life and liberty.
Wise, who is in his mid-60s, has spent nearly three decades developing the legal strategy for this initiative. He changed the course of his legal career to focus on animal law in 1980 after reading philosopher Peter Singer's groundbreaking 1975 treatise, Animal Liberation, and experiencing a moral epiphany.
Citing reams of scientific evidence, Wise maintains that cognitively complex animals such as chimpanzees, whales, dolphins, and elephants have the capacity for limited personhood rights that would protect them from abuse. Recognition as legal persons, he says, would protect these animals from being held captive by private citizens, or in zoos, circuses, and theme parks. It would also save them from being subject to invasive experiments in laboratories.
The NhRP's focus on these particular species is basically a strategic choice. Given the evidence about the self-awareness and "humanlike" intelligence of great apes, elephants, and cetaceans, and the fact that none of these animals are native to the US, Wise and his team believe there's a greater chance a judge would be willing to consider granting them special status as nonhuman persons.
The NhRP's long-term goal however, is, as Wise told me back in 2104, "to punch a legal hole" through the wall that separates animals from us.

When it Comes to GMOs, the Devil is in the Details
Unresolved safety questions about gene-editing technologies underscore need for caution
While expressing support for the watered-down GMO labeling bill, which was passed by Congress last week and is now awaiting President Obama's signature, White House spokeswoman Katie Hill told Bloomberg News: "While there is broad consensus that foods from genetically engineered crops are safe, (emphasis added) we appreciate the bipartisan effort to address consumers' interest in knowing more about their food…."
Making these kinds of broad statements about all genetically modified foods being "safe" seem to be a common quirk among even among science journalists who write about GMOs. There is a tendency to describe genetically engineered crops as though they are just one thing. True, GMOs have many traits in common, but so do planes, trains, and automobiles. Writers who lump them together often ignore important subtleties and distinctions between each GMO crop, how they are created and used, as well as the damaging agricultural practices most of the transgenic crops under commercial cultivation promote.
Photo by Ian Umeda
Consider, for example, this story at Slate.com by William Saletan which proclaims that "there's no good evidence" that GMOs are unsafe. "The deeper you dig," he writes, "the more fraud you find in the case against GMOs. It's full of errors, fallacies, misconceptions, misrepresentations, and lies."
Saletan could find no room for a single mention of the nagging, unresolved safety questions involving new gene-editing biotechnologies like RNA interference or CRISP/Cas9, or to investigate industry claims about increased crop yields, or to note that while less than a handful of GM crops like the ringspot-resistant papaya (engineered to resist a virus that once threatened to wipe out the fruit from the Hawaiian islands) have definitely helped save a fruit crop, biotech corporations have largely focused on commodity crops like corn, soy, and cotton, where the profit margin is higher.
It's not that he was crimped for space. He rambled on for 10,000 words, or about three times the length of a long-form magazine article. Although such details can annoyingly disrupt a story's overall arc, they are newsworthy nonetheless. At the time his article was published (June 2015) the safety of these newer technologies was already generating robust debates among scientists.

The Right Climate for Learning
Climate change education, and mitigation, in our national parks
National Park Service Ranger Brian Ettling queues up his presentation on climate change with the familiar notes of the 1966 film The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly. Ettling, who has served as a seasonal ranger at Crater Lake National Park for 23 years, began developing his talk in 2010.
Like many national parks, Oregon's Crater Lake is showing the impacts of climate change. Average snowpack has declined by 140 inches, more than 11 feet, since the 1930s. Warmer temperatures have compromised populations of pika, a small mammal that prefers rocky alpine slopes, and favored beetle populations that have killed many iconic whitebark pines that grow on Crater Lake's rim. Even the clear, deep water of the lake may be threatened, as increased water temperatures may fuel algae blooms.
When communicating these grim facts, Ettling has learned to include a healthy dose of humor. That's where the characters from the Clint Eastwood classic come in. Ettling calls the pure beauty of Crater Lake "The Good," the negative impacts of climate change on pikas "The Bad," and the destruction caused by pine bark beetles "The Ugly."
Photo courtesy of National Park Service
"I firmly believe that if people are laughing with me, they are more likely to listen to a controversial subject like climate change," says Ettling.
Though he developed his ranger program for Crater Lake, Ettling first confronted the issue in a very real way while a seasonal ranger at Everglades National Park in Florida. Faced with more frequent and violent storms and the threat of sea level rise, Everglades National Park is on the front lines of climate change, and the park's interpretive staff were among the first in the NPS to proactively educate visitors on the topic.
In 2010, under the leadership of Director Jonathan Jarvis, NPS launched its formal Climate Change Response Program. One of its four directives is to incorporate climate change education throughout the park system.
The first step toward implementing this directive is to educate NPS staff. The NPS has developed training tools to this end, including webinars and a climate change communication toolkit offered through Earth to Sky, a partnership between NASA, NPS, and the US Fish and Wildlife Service. Seasoned rangers like Ettling have also shared tips for effective communication during conventions and …more

Rare Leopards Released into Russian Reserve Threatened by a Ski Resort
Three endangered Persian leopard cubs are intended to reintroduce the species to the Sochi area
Three Persian leopard cubs have been released into the Sochi area of Russia's western Caucasus, a day after UNESCO threatened to deem the area a "world heritage site in danger" because of a planned ski resort expansion.

Persian leopards once prowled across the Caucasus mountains in great numbers but poaching, poisoning and human encroachment wiped out the species in Russia, in the early 20th century.
The new reintroduction plan was intended to lay the foundation for a new population of the charismatic big cats, which are now thought to number less than 500 across central Asia.
But conservationists say that a recent vote in the Russian parliament to weaken environmental protections, and allow new ski trail constructions in Sochi, will cut off a vital corridor to Turkmenistan for the free-roaming animals.
Igor Chestin, the CEO of WWF Russia said: "We had hoped to release these very special leopards into a secure environment. Instead they will enter the unknown. The future of the western Caucasus is hanging in the balance."
At a conference in Istanbul on Thursday, the world conservation body, UNESCO, warned that the Russian parliament's vote could have "negative impacts" on the Persian leopards' reintroduction.
Construction of large-scale infrastructure on the site could lead to its being placed on the list of world heritage sites in danger, the committee agreed. But it declined to do so immediately, despite pleas from conservationists.
WWF Russia says it wants the International Olympic Committee to be more proactive in pressuring Russia to honor environmental promises made at the time of the 2014 winter games in Sochi.
At the time, Russia pledged to expand two protection areas around the world heritage site. Last week however, Russia's president, Vladimir Putin, signed off an amendment to allow new ski constructions within the site itself.
The original groundbreaking plan to bring the endangered leopard species back from the dead envisaged 100 big cats returning to the region's forests and mountains.
These would have followed traditional migratory routes to mate with female cats in Azerbaijan, Armenia, and Georgia. If the ski resorts are built as planned though, no more than 30-40 big cats will establish themselves in the western Caucasus, Chestin said.
"The development of ski resorts will destroy the connectivity of the protected area between the central and western Caucasus where leopards are still occasionally …more

How Butterfly Farmers Are Safeguarding the Forest in Kenya
Community-based conservation project helps transform former loggers into forest advocates
An innovative community-based conservation project that was started more than 20 years ago near the Kenyan coast is paying off. Former illegal loggers are now embracing butterfly rearing as a conservation model, earning money from their butterfly enterprises while safeguarding Kenya's forest ecosystems.

Coastal forests in East Africa once stretched from southern Somalia, through Kenya and Tanzania, and all the way south to Mozambique. However, these forestlands have long suffered from deforestation. Now, Kenya's Arabuko Sokoke forest, which encompasses 42,000 hectares and is protected as a national forest reserve, represents the largest remaining block of coastal forest in the region.
Arabuko Sokoke is a treasure trove of endemic plants and animals, and is home to some of the most endangered species globally. More than 230 bird species live in the forest, among them rare species including the Clarke's weaver bird, Pemba sunbird, and Sokoke scops owl. Endangered mammals like the African golden cat, the African elephant, Ader's duiker, and bushy tailed Mongoose also live in the forest, as do 200 different butterfly species.
But the communities living around the forest have traditionally relied on it for their livelihood. From felling trees for sale to using timber for personal use, the communities for years played cat and mouse with the Kenyan government, which imposed a countrywide ban on logging in all public forests in 1999. Local conservationists, concerned about the impacts of illegal logging on this essential forest habitat, came up with an idea of creating nature based businesses like butterfly farming that would allow surrounding communities to transition to being forest protectors.
"We were losing the forest at a very fast rate," said Shariff Mwandawiro a local community leader who was among the first butterfly farmers and who conducts conservation trainings in the community. "Dozens of trucks would be packed right inside the forest every day. The sounds of power saws and falling trees never stopped. We had to look for a way to stop it. But it had to be more rewarding to the communities than what they were currently getting."
In 1993, with funding from the United Nations Development Programme, Kipepeo butterfly project was launched. (Kipepeo is Swahili for butterfly). The program involves introducing and training local communities in butterfly farming, monitoring activities to ensure sustainability of operations, and coordinating sales.
"We wanted the …more

22 U.S. Code § 8201 - Findings
Pub. L. 110–53, title XXI, § 2101, Aug. 3, 2007, 121 Stat. 526, provided that:
Memorandum of President of the United States, Sept. 23, 2014, 79 F.R. 58237, provided:
Memorandum for the Heads of Executive Departments and Agencies
The participation of civil society is fundamental to democratic governance. Through civil society, citizens come together to hold their leaders accountable and address challenges that governments cannot tackle alone. Civil society organizations—such as community groups, non-governmental organizations, labor unions, indigenous groups, charitable organizations, faith-based organizations, professional associations, and foundations—often drive innovations and develop new ideas and approaches to solve social, economic, and political problems that governments can apply on a larger scale. Moreover, by giving people peaceful avenues to advance their interests and express their convictions, a free and flourishing civil society contributes to stability and helps to counter violent extremism. Countries should ensure that civil society organizations can engage freely in legitimate and peaceful activity, while recognizing the potential for illicit actors to abuse the sector and establishing proportionate and targeted safeguards to prevent that abuse.
The rights to freedom of expression, peaceful assembly, and association that enable civil society to participate fully in social, economic, and political life are enshrined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights. In many parts of the world, however, these rights are in danger. An increasing number of governments are inhibiting the free operation of civil society and cutting off civil society organizations' ability to receive funding from legitimate sources. In some cases, these restrictions arise out of the implementation of laws, regulations, and administrative measures that are being inappropriately applied; in other cases, the laws, regulations, and administrative measures are themselves problematic. Despite concerted efforts by the United States and a growing number of like-minded governments to address this problem, greater, sustained energy and attention is needed worldwide.
On September 23, 2013, during the United Nations General Assembly, the United States convened a High Level Event on Civil Society that included heads of state, representatives of civil society, the philanthropic community, and multilateral organizations to spur coordinated international action to support and defend civil society. Through the issuance of a Joint Statement on the Promotion and Protection of Civil Society, attendees affirmed that the strength and success of nations depend on allowing civil society to function without interference, and on robust engagement between governments and civil society to advance shared goals of peace, prosperity, and the well-being of all people. Attendees also committed to take concrete steps, individually and jointly, and to lead by example to promote laws, policies, and practices that expand the space for civil society to operate in accordance with international law.
To take further steps to fulfill that commitment, this memorandum directs agencies engaged abroad (as defined in section 6 of this memorandum), including those that do not traditionally work with civil society, to take actions that elevate and strengthen the role of civil society; challenge undue restrictions on civil society; and foster constructive engagement between governments and civil society.
Therefore, by the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, I hereby direct the following:
Sec. 1.
(b) When traveling overseas, senior U.S. officials of agencies engaged abroad shall seek opportunities to meet with representatives of civil society, especially those who face restrictions on their work and who may benefit from international support and solidarity.
(c) Each agency engaged abroad shall incorporate inclusive outreach to civil society into their international engagement.
Sec. 2.
Sec. 3.
(b) Agencies engaged abroad shall, where possible, expand the provision of advice and other support to governments seeking to institute legal and political reforms to protect civic space, and to civil society organizations where governments are not engaged in such affirmative reform efforts. This may include funding for democracy, human rights, workers' rights, and governance assistance, as well as emergency support to activists and organizations.
(c) Agencies engaged abroad shall seek diplomatic and programmatic opportunities in regional and multilateral organizations and bodies to protect and strengthen civil society. This shall include efforts to enhance support for the work of the U.N. Special Rapporteurs charged with advancing relevant rights, including the rights to freedom of opinion and expression, peaceful assembly and association, and human rights defenders.
Sec. 4.
(b) Agencies engaged abroad that organize public, U.S.-hosted international gatherings shall create opportunities for civil society to substantively engage in such events, where appropriate.
Sec. 5.
Sec. 6.
Sec. 7.
(b) Nothing in this memorandum shall be construed to impair or otherwise affect:
(i) the authority granted by law to an executive department, agency, or the head thereof, or the status of that department or agency within the Federal Government; or
(ii) the functions of the Director of the Office of Management and Budget relating to budgetary, administrative, or legislative proposals.
(c) Nothing in this memorandum shall alter the role of the Secretary of State or Chiefs of Mission in the coordination or implementation of U.S. foreign policy, and this memorandum shall be implemented consistent with agencies' respective missions.
(d) This memorandum shall be implemented consistent with applicable law and subject to the availability of appropriations.
(e) The Secretary of State is hereby authorized and directed to publish this memorandum in the Federal Register.
LII has no control over and does not endorse any external Internet site that contains links to or references LII.

text: Posted September 7, 2013 When there were holes to hit, he hit them. I think some of what we saw was him trying to stay true to the play call and limit the number of times he bounced outside. There were some very uncharacteristic runs into the backs of the O-linemen when there was daylight outside. You could see his helmet turn towards the actual gap- so I have to assume he was told to abide by the play design. This also makes sense given the youth and question marks on the OL. You want the OL to see on tape what happens when they don't do their jobs. You can't assume the RB is going to bail you out with a good cutback for a positive gain. I seriously doubt a vet in preseason was told to run into bodies and piles and away from daylight. Williams ever since Hoov left...Williams is a different runner. He needs someone to clear him space between the tackles IMO. He has been very inconsistent the last 2 years IMO and that is why Stewart is the preferred RB....Stew doesn't have 1 big run to cancel out 8 poor ones Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dear Heloise: My mother has a couple of nice blouses that have a few light, noticeable spots on them. She said they just appeared after washing and drying them one day. She thinks they could be from the fabric-softener sheets. Have you ever heard of dryer sheets doing that to a piece of clothing? If so, is there any way to get the stain out?
— Cheryl Curry, via email
Yes, there is, and it's pretty easy. Just rub the wet fabric with a bar of soap, or put a little liquid laundry detergent on the area, then rub it in and rewash the item as usual. As always, check your garment-care tag, because some tags will state "No fabric softener."
If the fabric is polyester, it just may be the softener sheet. Too small a load of laundry can't "distribute" the fabric softener evenly, and so if you must do a small load, it is helpful to put a damp bath towel or two in. Too many clothes, and the fabric-softener sheet can't move around.
— Heloise
Dear Heloise: I read the hint from the mother who used peas (Heloise here: a bag of frozen peas) as an ice bag. I had eye surgery and was given an eye ice pack, but included in the instructions for extended care was a recipe I wish I'd had when raising my kids.
Mix ¼ cup of rubbing alcohol with ¾ cup of water in a small, sealable plastic lunch bag. Put it in the freezer, and it will become a little more than slushy. It is a perfect ice bag. A larger bag can be used for larger "hurts" by using the 1-to-3 recipe. — Barbara Floyd, Thornville, Ohio/Bonita Springs, Fla.
Yes indeed, a homemade ice pack. Please double-bag it, and mark on the bag what it is.
— Heloise
Dear Heloise: I have been doing something that helps me see the newspaper crossword puzzle better: I scan the puzzle (Heloise here: use the printer) and enlarge it to 140 percent, then press "black," which makes the type clear. This makes it much more enjoyable. — Norma Nelson, Omaha, Neb.
Dear Heloise: Due to strict privacy laws, even apartments cannot give out residency information to visitors or callers. If you are coming to visit someone, even Aunt Frances or Dad, please find out the apartment number before you drive over.

God Bless America
- Studio: Magnet Releasing
- Release Date: May 11, 2012
Critic Reviews
- Critic score
- Publication
- By date
As with the earlier movie, this one turns in on its own morality like a Möbius strip, endorsing kindness by practicing slaughter, and pulls us along for the ride. Detractors will call its reasoning ridiculous, and they'll be right - though I doubt that will bother Goldthwait, who makes a living being ridiculous.
God Bless America ends with a couple of tale-twisting bullet orgies designed to take your preconceptions, as well as your nerve-endings, by surprise.
Part road trip, part revenge movie, this is a tentative tale of a man who's not going to take it anymore, sharp on the fallibility of human foibles and sometimes stingingly funny, too.
The key point about God Bless America is that it's extreme but not exaggerated, a dark comedy that indulges - and questions - a violent, misanthropic fantasy about laying waste to the cultural landscape while staying grounded in a recognizable reality.
Writer/director Bobcat Goldthwait has an ax to grind and, once he's done grinding it, he uses it to split some skulls. God Bless America is many things - audacious, bitingly satirical, unafraid of venturing into uncomfortable territory - but it is never subtle.
This funny, sick twist of social satire is certainly locked and loaded, even if its aim is sometimes off.
You'll laugh and be offended, but if you watch it and don't want to be part of the solution, you'll know which side of the line you're on. Activism takes some unique forms.
It's a little too obvious -- interesting, sometimes kind of fun but, ultimately, not as satisfying as it might have been.
Offers a few laughs and a moment or two of drama, but it's finally more of a conceit -- and a familiar one -- than a film.
The good news: This is Goldthwait the writer-director, not Goldthwait the actor -- so there's no schticky voice to endure. But his exceedingly black comedy does speak loudly -- and it turns out he's actually got something worthwhile to say.
Although several great speeches and hilarious one-liners goose the film, God Bless America nevertheless peaks too early and becomes rather one-note.
There are so many monologues about obnoxious behavior that they begin to lose their luster - something I'd never have thought possible.
At no point during the movie does it strike him that mass extermination might be classified as "rude." No, Frank has the courage of his convictions, which include the belief that most of America has already flushed itself down the toilet.
Mr. Goldthwait's screenplay is essentially a comedy act fleshed out with a story he doesn't try to make convincing.
Here is a film that begins with merciless comic savagery and descends into merely merciless savagery. But wow, what an opening.
Bobcat Goldthwait's new movie is a burlesque that turns into a harangue that turns into a rampage.
The interplay between Murray and Barr is closely and carefully handled, but when the monotonous squib-popping subsides, the movie is often static and talky, lapsing into criticism-hedging qualifications and anti-everything speechifying.
A niche theatrical run might draw fans of Goldthwait's previous work, this effort isn't likely to get as much help from critics as those sometimes did.
While it starts out well, Bobcat Goldthwait's black comedy struggles to maintain focus as it turns into a road trip of diminishing rewards in satirical and narrative terms.
God Bless America only wants to see the worst in people - in fact actively seeks it out in order to be disgusted, and that feels almost as bad as the behavior the film is critiquing.
As both a comedian and filmmaker, Bobcat Goldthwait ("Shakes the Clown") has carved out a valuable spot as an idiosyncratic instigator. But even fans may be disappointed at how swiftly he undermines its own message here.
It's Goldthwait's first misstep, a serious one. He's simply not the filmmaker to mount a fierce takedown of Kardashian culture, thorough though his script's rage is.
By wholeheartedly taking its main character's side instead of complicating or censuring his homicidal vigilante crusade, it proves inanely one-note and preachy.

The plot relays a messageOne of the best movies of the year in my opinion. While the story is not easy to take seriously, its not meant to. The plot relays a message that needs to be said about todays society. The break out performance by Tara Lynne Barr is phenomenal. I enjoyed every second of this movie. *note this movie will not go over with you as well if you are 1) a Santorum style republican 2) A member of the Real housewives show 3) a member of the Westboro Baptist church.

May 27, 2012Ultimately a snuff fantasy for the kind of people who spend their evening watching Jon Stewart and Rachel Maddow. Sure is fun to imagineUltimately a snuff fantasy for the kind of people who spend their evening watching Jon Stewart and Rachel Maddow. Sure is fun to imagine yourself going on a killing spree to wipe out FOX news commentators, reality TV show stars, and insulting judges on American Idol. But ultimately, the film's ccharacters are no better than the targets of their wrath. The is one way I could givev this movie a 10. If you interpret it as a condemnation of the people who will get off on it. In a way, the ending reminds me of the ending of Inglourious Bastards, where the audience is watching a film in which the heros massacre an audience full of Nazis trapped in a theater watching a film in which the hero kills their enemies. I'm not sure the film is really smart enough to have that double edge to it, though. There are numerous occasions when the protagonists rant and rave about the vulgarity of the culture, before immediately revealing themselves to be nothing but the flip side, another example of the vulgarity they condemn. As if going on a killing spree to protest incivility isn't sufficiently ironic.… Full Review »
Jul 21, 2012Just finished watching the DVD after picking it up at my local Blockbuster. I admit I feel a bit guilty watching this just two days after theJust finished watching the DVD after picking it up at my local Blockbuster. I admit I feel a bit guilty watching this just two days after the latest tragedy in Colorado. But I don't believe Goldthwait's intention was to turn his audience into homicidal maniacs. I think his intention was to express frustration and discontent with the malaise that is our current American culture, albeit in an exaggerated manner. Nonetheless, I can empathize with said frustration of the film's antiheroes. Now the hard part for me isn't resisting the urge to go on a killing spree, with America's most conceited, bigoted, self-absorbed idiots out there as targets. The hard part is willingness to throw my Android phone off a bridge into the water below. Either way, I find God Bless America to be the most entertaining film of 2012 so far.… Full Review »

Reviews of Arlington Gas Piping Companies
Arlington, TX
I contracted McBride to install a Gas Logs, I was concerned about the install, since the first company I contacted had no clue on what they were doing. McBride plumbers arrived on time and installed the gas connections, I thought that was all they would do, but they completed the entire install. The install was done very professional and the log set looks great, if I should need a plumber again I will differently call on McBride.
Mansfield, TX
The man who came out and installed our gas line to our new gas dryer was very courteous and professional. Would definitely use again!
Arlington, TX
From the phone calls to the visit, these folks were very professional. They communicated when they were only a few minutes later than their original estimate for getting here, and gave me an honest estimate of what I needed to get done and suggested some alternatives. Because of the cost of the upgrade (running a new line from the meter, and a new line from the gas manifold) I am not having any work done right now while I consider alternatives (electric), but I would definitely call them again.

If you need complicated brain surgery to treat a brain aneurysm, you should be asking the newly introduced neurosurgeon, "Do you think you can help me?†not "Do you have an East End office?†When your life is on the line, you want a doctor with top-notch skills and experience who will provide the best possible care.
Availability, while still important, should become a secondary consideration. When you're picking a new health care provider, don't just pick the first name in your health care insurance book. Instead, ask around and get referrals.
Also if you're seeing more than one physician for a particular condition, consider whether they know each other and have a good working relationship. Ask Doctor No if he works with Doctor Yes. If you don't get an answer, check with the doctor's staff.
In a time of crisis, you need your providers to be able to communicate with each other. And although we'd like to think they could rise above personal differences, would you be able to? Another important factor is whether your different physicians have admitting or consulting privileges at the same hospital.
Unknowingly, patients often rely on two or more groups of physicians at different facilities. If you see one doctor as an outpatient and are then admitted to a hospital that he or she doesn't visit, you'll be stuck with someone new. During initial consultations with new physicians, ask what facilities they use.
