Anyone ever lived and/or worked as an RN in Ecuador? - page 2
I'll try this again - I asked about a month ago about living in Mexico (and of course, the overwhelming response was how dangerous Mexico is). We've since done more research and have revised our... Read More
2Jul 14, '11 by jillprI lived in Ecuador for a year working as an English teacher. I've lived all over the world and this is the only place I dream of moving back to one day, but as a nurse next time. I just started working in a nicu in Puerto Rico for the time being. As for nursing in Ecuador, I do know that nurses and doctors had to dedicate a year of working in a rural community before obtaining licensure. You'd probably be able to find a clinic that you could 'work' for, though once you get there. I was paid cash and did visa runs to Peru every 3 months. Pretty standard. In 2005, I believe I was making about $400 a month. Whatever I made is all I had to live on, and it was enough for a very modest lifestyle. And for those who replied, discouraging the poster to move because of the dangers, perhaps you should consider offering advice on topics you have experience in. Just sayin, it makes sense.
0Jul 14, '11 by klone, MSN, RNHey, I had forgotten about this thread. Thanks for the feedback, JillPR, PhoenixRN and Antmarching! Ecuador in 8-9 years is still in our plans (although we're now also considering Nicaragua). I do speak Spanish - I wouldn't call myself fluent, but I think I could be fluent after a few months of immersion.Last edit by klone on Jul 14, '11

It is a great place to retire and it is also one of the safest countries in South America. The only problem I see with your future plan is that Ecuator (or any Latin American country for that matter...) do not have anything equivalent to an Advanced Nurse Practitioner....but if it is of any help, check the links below.

0Sep 25, '12 by lkohlmannHello,
I am currently in nursing school and we are doing a global health project. My assigned country is Ecuador, and I have been researching forever for the answers to my questions and all I can find on google is information about mission trips. Below I have pasted my questions. Do you know of any websites or any place that I can find this information? Please let me know if you do
What is the role of nursing in Ecuador? What is the scope of practice for nursing? Do people generally seek nursing care or is traditional medicine more common?
2. What types of educational requirements are there for nurses to practice?
Does anyone have any experience or knowledge about American nurses working in Ecuador?[/QUOTE]Last edit by lkohlmann on Sep 25, '12
1Sep 25, '13 by GeorgiaGingerDid the original poster of this thread ever find out anymore about nursing in Ecuador? If so I'm interested to find out....I googled the topic and your post came up in the search.
2Sep 25, '13 by Eru Ilúvatar, ASN, RNHello there,
I cannot give you information regarding nursing specifically in Ecuador, but as someone that lived there for 2 years i can give you some sound advise.
Before moving to any country asses the current politico-social situation of that country. Ecuador currently is governed under a democratic dictatorship. The economic changes implemented by the government have had a profound change in the situation of the country and the people, and as a result, necessity has incremented, unemployment is high and private property is disrespected and confiscated by the government institutions. Many companies have abandoned the country and as a result certain products are hard to find and others have high prices. Crime and drug related crime has increased, and safety is a real concern, kidnapping Mexico style is common on the streets of the main cities.
My humble opinion is look closely into the situation of the country and dont be based on previous reports, stories or articles... One place may be paradise one day but the next it can become an inferno... Ecuador is a beautiful country and full of marvelous and wonderful people. If your plan is to bring healthcare to these individuals in need then be part of the force of change, but before jumping ship and planting roots on a foreign country, make sure the social situation is the most optimal for it...
As a last note, as part of the South American social changes, Ecuador's government has planted an anti-american seed on the mind of its people... So beware.
1Feb 1, '14 by cuencaaliciaThis is a late answer to your question, but as I live in Cuenca, Ecuador my information and response is much more knowledgeable than others. First, you will have to get a permit to work or residency. I am working as a volunteer RN.
Despite being ranked as top places to retire by international living, Cuenca is a very young community. Census information for 2010 shows that 66% of the population is under age 29. Pregnancy rates are an astonishing rate of 91 per 1000 females ages 10-19 and OB care is very much needed. The rate of c-section here hovers near 80%! I volunteer at an OB-GYN clinic and can give you ideas of what you would get for pay. The pay for an nurse here is about $5-8 dollars an hour depending on your degree (I have a MSN). If I had a doctorate, and had registered my degrees, obtained licensing from the Ecuadorian government.... I could command $30 dollars per office visit or $800 for natural birth or $1200 for water birth for my OB patients. The price includes all prenatal care and labs (covered by office). You would also have to consider that many patients (due to age and sex) are not covered by insurance or have the money for delivery, thus are delivered at the "security" hospital and public clinics for their prenatal care.
You might want to consider a telecommute position in the US that you can do from here....at least you get paid for what you are worth. If you are an interested in starting a business, the only assisted living facility closed here last month. I think that might work well, you could collect social security from residents. Since healthcare here costs pennies on the dollar, you could really make it work.
Best of Luck. Alicia
ps- Ecuador is so safe! I feel safer here than I did living in Minnesota! The constitution here provides equal rights for residents and foreigners alike. Ecuadorians in Cuenca are very positive about expats and very welcoming. None of the above mentioned anti-american things mentioned above, although politically the President doesn't bend to the US like other South American Countries (but Ecuador receives less funding, etc and doesn't have the financial obligations to always align its stand with the US). Also, I have never heard of a kidnapping in Cuenca. I guess if you lived on the Columbian boarder or were involved in drugs, you might find this (same as the boarder between texas and mexico).Last edit by cuencaalicia on Feb 1, '14

Watch: 'Sherlock Holmes' shows Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law in action
I spent a little time on the "Sherlock Holmes" set last year, my last big visit for Ain't It Cool News, which made sense, as I used the handle "Moriarty" for over a decade.
If you want to read about my time on the set, you can read part one, or part two, both with a fair amount of detail about what to expect from the film, including descriptions of stuff you can see now for yourself in the trailer.
Having read the script, met the cast, spoken to the director and the producers, and having also seen several sequences in rough-cut, it was obvious to me that the film plans to pay strict homage to the original Arthur Conan Doyle short stories while also using details that are just suggested or mentioned in those stories to goose things up a bit and make them justthatmuch more blockbustery. It's a big ambition for one of the most recognizable fictional characters in the world, and if it works, then Robert Downey Jr. becomes a two-franchise threat.
That enough of a comeback for you, Hollywood?
[more after the jump]
What I find most interesting today is what I'm going to call the "Jeffrey Wells phenomenon," where people are looking at the trailer, deciding based on what they see that it's a complete rape of the character and the ideas of Arthur Conan Doyle, and then loudly complaining about it on the internet. Now, I know... this is the first time in history that anyone has ever signed onto the internet and loudly complained about something while being wildly misinformed. But still...
Yes, there's a big broad sense of humor at work here. That's not a surprise. The chemistry I saw on-set between Downey and Law was ridiculous and relaxed and engaged. I bought them as friends. And Ritchie seems to me to be a man with a mission right now. He's got a lot to prove, and he seems to not only know it but welcome it.
Obviously, this is just a tease, our first look at the tone and the world and the characters themselves, but I think it's going to start a real buzz for the film when people see it in front of "Terminator: Salvation" this weekend. And by the time Robert Downey Jr. finishes charming everyone's ass off on the talk show circuit this fall, selling this and "Iron Man 2," we're probably looking at one of the biggest films of the holidays season.

"I studied as a sculptor therefore form and texture are primary. Design must be pure and have great qualities which achieve timelessness. I want my furniture to survive and be appreciated for a long time, like the antiques I also sell. I love research and academic discoveries which tell you more about a piece, but the mood created by the design, scale, colour or condition is what really inspires me." Christopher Howe 2004
Christopher Howe offers an unusually varied stock - since the age of twenty Christopher has acquired an extraordinary range of rare furniture and objects dating from the 17th through to the 20th centuries. Most of this stock is now available to view online or can be seen in his large shop located on the prestigious Pimlico Road in London.
Christopher Howe offers an unusually varied stock - since the age of twenty Christopher has acquired an extraordinary range of rare furniture and objects dating from the 17th through to the 20th centuries. Most of this stock is now available to view online or can be seen in his large shop located on the prestigious Pimlico Road in London.
Howe's brilliant eye for good design reflects strongly in the stock – items ranging from 17th and 18th century English country house furniture through to the Arts and Crafts of the late 19th century and the innovation of the 20th century. Christopher has had many interesting followers and prestigious clients over the years such as Lucien Freud who bought esoterically shabby chairs to use in his portraits, for example the 19th century Holland & Son's easy chair in the famous painting of Leigh Bowery (Seated) 1990; the late Hon. Simon Sainsbury, the Rothschilds, icons of the music and film worlds, institutions such as Sir John Soane's Museum, The National Gallery, The National Portrait Gallery, Kensington Palace, Hampton Court Palace, The Royal Pavilion in Brighton and leading fashion stores including Ralph Lauren, Tommy Hilfiger, Hackett and Gieves & Hawkes.
Christopher's career has been a fascinating one; in 1986, having just left Goldsmith's College of Art, he took on a derelict shop in a small street in Belgravia. Initially relying only on candles for lighting, a year on, after some building work the shop re-opened with a window displaying a Gae Aulenti lamp and a pair of Pierre Paulin white vinyl Tulip Chairs, an innovative style which has remained the essence of Christopher's approach to antique dealing ever since.
In 1995 the business moved to a much larger premises on the Pimlico Road where it remains today running alongside HOWE®, Christopher's range of bespoke furniture and lighting traditionally handmade in England. Each piece of furniture is expertly carved and polished using traditional methods of cabinet making. Equal attention is given to the upholstery, ensuring the highest quality results. The chairs, stools and sofas are traditionally upholstered with hand stitched horsehair and down-filling. By making products to order rather than stocking them in a warehouse, HOWE® is able offer its customers a service which allows them to specify every detail so that the end result is perfect and often unique.
HOWE® also offers an exceptional range of lighting. The lanterns are individually handmade and painted in England and can be made for interior or exterior use, either with a candle fitting or for electricity. There is also a classic collection of table lamps, hurricane lamps and candlesticks in oak, ebony, silver plate, brass and bronze finishes. All our lights can be electrified to UK, European or US standards.
For commercial projects, there is a growing range of manufactured contract furniture, which includes chairs, sofas and an unusual range of manufactured marine and industrial lighting.
Ever changing, exemplary pieces of furniture and lighting are available to view and to buy off the floor at the HOWE showroom on Pimlico road. HOWE® furniture and lighting is available to order and lead-time for the bespoke furniture is approximately 12 weeks from receipt of a 50% deposit. Lead-time is between 2 and 8 weeks for the manufactured range if not available from stock.
If you have an enquiry about the HOWE® furniture and lighting range please send an email to firstname.lastname@example.com or telephone +44 20 7730 7987

Skip to comments.Framing religious debates
Posted on 12/10/2003 12:56:09 PM PST by NorCoGOP
PRINCETON, N.J. -- In the debate over gay marriage, Christians tend to be dismissed by their opponents as fools who live by an ancient book, and they use that only selectively. (Last week's Nicholas Kristof column in The New York Times is an example.) So what if God condemns homosexuality, they say, the Bible also says to stone people for working on the Sabbath and that eating shellfish is wrong! They then congratulate themselves for turning Christians' own book against them, expecting Christians' jaws to drop in awe. "Gee, that never occurred to me!" they would exclaim in this fantasy. "Maybe this God fellow isn't so reasonable after all!"
Arguments like these reduce Christians to caricatures -- Bible-thumping, finger-wagging rednecks too brainwashed to see the obvious "flaws" in their religion, too ignorant to know as much about their own beliefs as even their opponents do. To ridicule Christians, proponents of gay marriage have resorted to a tactic that shows no regard to historical context or how and why the majority of Christians live out their faith.
The tactic is as common as it is cheap. Christians make a statement -- "God forbids premarital sex," "We are required to honor our parents," "The Bible prohibits homosexuality" -- that many feel is outdated and irrelevant. To discredit such beliefs (and perhaps also the entire religion and all its followers), they respond by mocking obscure Jewish civil laws from the Old Testament, and claiming they invalidate all Christian moral teaching.
(These champions of tolerance should note that orthodox Jews do try to obey the commandments literally, all 613 of them, including strict observance of the Sabbath and dietary laws that these freethinkers may find silly and arcane. Although there is no longer a theocracy that imposes civil penalties, this minority keeps the commandments central in their lives. So much for being politically correct.)
Why compare laws regarding a broad area of life such as sexual behavior to trifling civil laws? Why not compare one rule about sexual behavior -- homosexuality -- to others, such as premarital sex, bestiality, rape, and incest (all prohibited by the Bible)?
But that is not the main issue. Contrary to popular belief, it isn't that Christians don't know such "ridiculous" laws exist, and therefore can take the Bible seriously. In order to be made righteous by the law, Christians believe, we would have to obey all the commands perfectly. Since we are unable to do so, making the law ineffective for gaining salvation, Jesus died in our place and his righteousness is accepted by God instead of ours. While the law's requirements do apply to us, it is only by taking on Christ's righteousness through his death that we are able to fulfill the law. Thus, the laws of the Old Testament (before Christ) are not directly applicable to us as Christians. (However, the New Testament, whose moral teaching is directly applicable to Christians, does talk about sexual morality; see Romans 1.) While the law is no longer the means for salvation, it remains a guide for what God's will is.
Certainly, some who profess to be Christians are also known to appropriate Bible verses and use them out of context for their own agendas. But however widespread it may be, this behavior is not a reflection of God, the Bible or Christianity, but rather that of the individuals. There will always be people who hide behind faith, profession, circumstance, love, insanity -- whatever means necessary -- to justify actions and lives that are far from admirable. Besides, "Some Christians misuse the Bible too" is hardly an excuse for others make superficial, inaccurate readings.
Not only is it shortsighted to think all who oppose you do so because they lack intelligence, sense or plain sanity, you won't win people over to your side through condescension. You won't convert those who are pro-death penalty by saying, "Guess what, you're ending a life prematurely," just as pro-lifers won't do much by saying, "Look, a fetus is a potential human being." All you gain through making a contemptuous, obvious argument is a minority of sheep and the hearty backing of those who already agree with you. You haven't neared understanding; you've added fury to the debate.
Christians know there are easy-to-ridicule Old Testament laws that they do not follow, and they have their reasons for not following them. Gleefully pointing it out is not only trivial and fruitless, it also makes you look ignorant -- of your opponents' point of view, of the historical context of the Bible, of the entire basis of Christianity, which is the birth and death of Jesus Christ.
The important issues of our day should be debated with less condescension, more research. Less mockery, more arguments. If you're going to criticize (and be scornful while you're at it), at least take the time to be accurate.
Premarital sex and incest can occur between two consenting adults. Bestiality can occur between a consenting adult and property - an animal.
So why again can't they be compared ?
Thus proving the author's point. The Bible does contain valid prohibitions which we still accept. Does our prohibition of incest unconstitutionally entangle the Church with the State? Does it force religion down someone's throat? NO? Then we can discuss the prohibition of homosexuality without bringing up that stupid nonsense - which was what she was trying to say.
Why just two? Can't three, four, five, six ad libitum consent? Why don't we institutionalize Roman orgies?
What really scares me are all these right-wing kooks who take the Second Amendment literally. What's the point in walking around with a gun? Or these guys who think that "free exercise" of religion means they've got a right to wish me "Merry Christmas," or expose children---children!---to prayers and Nativity scenes. Or these hate groups that think the literal language of the First Amendment allows them to utter hate speech or display offensive symbols. Scary, scary, scary! BRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!
If you don't take the bible literally, then how can you be a Christian? In other words, if the bible is not true, why claim to follow Christ? Why not follow Plato, Socrates, or Mohammed? HOw about Budda, or Hari-Krishna. They are all equally legitimate, if none of them can be taken literally.
I am spooked by Christians who don't believe the bible.
Asian Christian Bump!!!!
Have you read Romans or the other Pauline epistles? You wouldn't ask such an ignorant question if you had.
And #2, granted that the above is the case, Jesus made it clear it was nearly impossible for a wealthy man to get into heaven. Surely this disease afflicts more Christians in the US than homosexuality, and yet I never hear US Christians admonishing rich men that camels will be crawling through a needle's eye before they enter the Kingdom. Why is that?
More "b'li ya'al" [Hebrew for "worthless," transcribed in the Bible as "Belial"] ignorance. If you and your fellow liberals put the quote from Jesus in context, instead of cherry picking verses you think fit your agenda, you'd realize that Jesus was speaking about the choice between materialism and spirituality---serving Mammon instead of God. When the disciples misunderstood his comment (as you do) as meaning that the rich were condemned to Hell simply by virtue of being rich---Jesus replied quite aptly (and no doubt with an indulgent sigh): "With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible." (Do I need to explain that last part to you, "Satan"? [no, I'm not being abusive---"satan" means "adversary" in Hebrew])
He saith unto him, Which? Jesus said, Thou shalt do no murder, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness,Now, tell me if I'm wrong, but it sounds like Jesus is saying that forsaking everything for him is what really counts. Even your family.
Honour thy father and thy mother: and, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
The young man saith unto him, All these things have I kept from my youth up: what lack I yet?
Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect, go and sell that thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come and follow me.
But when the young man heard that saying, he went away sorrowful: for he had great possessions.
Then said Jesus unto his disciples, Verily I say unto you, That a rich man shall hardly enter into the kingdom of heaven.
And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
When his disciples heard it, they were exceedingly amazed, saying, Who then can be saved?
But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.
Then answered Peter and said unto him, Behold, we have forsaken all, and followed thee; what shall we have therefore?
And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
And every one that hath forsaken houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name's sake, shall receive an hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life.
But many that are first shall be last; and the last shall be first.
What good would it do to give you a specific "Biblical verse"? What about the word "context" do you not understand, Belly? Read Romans, all of it---say Chapters 6 and 7 in particular. Or if you want to pick cherries, verses 7:12 & 7:16. Better yet, read the whole New Testament.
And do re-read the article. You just didn't get her point, either.
For my second question, you insisted I need context. Jesus didn't really mean it was incredibly difficult for a rich man to get into heaven (although that's exactly what he said). I've also heard it all depends on the meaning of "is", right?
Please. Don't try to make me think you're really interested in Biblical exegesis. Do you really think Jesus was equating being rich with being evil? Well, please do so. I'm sure the other guy you quote would agree with you.
Uh-hunh. Nothing matters more than God. "And you shall love the Lord thy God with all thy heart." It's harder to do that if you're focused on material things (like your lover's flesh), but not impossible, right?
This passage is a very stern rebuke of material posessions, and yet I never hear modern Christians speaking in these terms.
Phooey. You don't hang around Christians much, do you? What makes you think Christians don't condemn our materialistic, sybaritic, wealth crazed modern society?
And yet they want me to condemn homos because of a letter Paul wrote. Jesus never even mentioned queers.
Belial, no one on your side ever seems to want to listen to Christians when they say that they "hate the sin but not the sinner." If you really think that Christianity is all about "condemning sinners," or that Jesus would have thought sodomy "no problem," or that Paul had no authority for his doctrinal pronouncements, then, guy, you don't understand Christianity, and you don't want to.
Now do you understand why some people accuse fundamentalists of cherry-picking and hypocrisy?
I will be accommodating and assure you that I have never believed, do not now believe, and will never believe that "fundamentalists" are incapable of "cherry-picking and hypocrisy"---they're sinners too, don't you get that?
If my first response to you was "emotional," I apologize. But if you please, recognize that you have been somewhat emotional too. Matthew 7:3 (and yes, that verse applies with even greater force to me).
Because sexual freedom, even being two "consenting adults," cannot be unlimited. Unrestricted sex has adverse societal consequences, aside and apart from what the Bible says, like AIDS, like abortion, like divorce, like unsupported children, like STDs, that can and should be averted.
Fer shurrr.
I merely quoted Jesus as saying it would be real hard for a rich man to enter heaven.
I see. And we Christians just should "take that on faith," without asking why a rich man shouldn't be able to get into heaven (like the apostles did)?
Like many modern cherry-picking Christians, you aren't comfortable with that, and all your silly name-calling and Clintonian context parsing doesn't change the obvious, simple meaning of Christ's words.
OOOOOO! That hurt!! (:-(
The whole issue of "consenting adults" is always played as a "trump card" to cut off discussion. But consider:
I would suggest that there are acts--such as some of these--that are generally detrimental to society as a whole. And that it is good if there are laws to punish some of them. And finally, that "consenting adults" should not be considered to be a magic bullet for killing all morality arguments.
And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
If you don't mind me turning this discussion from the polemical to the scholarly, while I approve of your use of the KJV, are you at all curious what the text was in the ancient languages, like Greek and Latin, that this passage was transmitted in originally?
Well, I was. And I grabbed my Greek Testament and Vulgate to look it up.
The word translated "hardly" in verse 23 is dyskolos in the Greek and difficile according to Jerome. That is, the sense is not "a rich man can hardly get into heaven," but more like "a rich man will get into (Gr. eiseleusetai, Latin intrabit) the kingdom of heaven with difficulty".
Similarly, the term "eye of the needle" (Gr. dia trematos raphidos, Latin per foramen acus) according to the exegeses I've read, does not mean what we think of as the five square millimeter hole in a needle, but the kind of traditional Middle Eastern entranceway into a home or a street that require entrants to stoop before they could pass it, so that, for example, some bad guy couldn't come in like gangbusters.
Again, not to say that Jesus was remarking that it would be easy for a rich man to get into heaven---of course he was saying just the opposite. But he also said "Apud Deum autem omnia possibilia sunt." With God all things are possible, even a rich man getting into heaven.
Forgive my insensitivity, but I don't really give a flying F%$@ if produce dies because some whacko wants to hump it. Heck I don't even care if someone needs to go the produce aisle to get there jollies. Where as it may be wierd I don't see it as posing a health risk to anyone except for the individual participating in it.
"When I take my cat to the vet, I don't concern myself about whether or not the cat can "give consent." I doubt that the cat would consent to getting his shots. Nobody seems to have a problem with that."
Actually most normal people would find the fact that you care enough to take your cat to the vet as very caring. I'm sure most kids don't want to take cough syrup when their sick but loving parents will make sure their kids do the right thing.
What that has to do with two consenting adults who participate in "deviant" private behaviour that may or may not be harmful to THEMSELVES is beyond me.
So why is it that a freedom loving society ought to regulate the actions of willing participants in private acts that do not infringe upon the rights of others?
"A person can stipulate in their will that their body is to be used for scientific research. Inasmuch as consent is an issue, the will constitutes consent. I believe that parents can give consent in this fashion for the body of their child. What if parents determined to sell the body of their child to a pedo-necrophile? Is anyone getting hurt here? Is any "force or fraud" involved? Is anyone being abused?"
If a dog did this to someone I knew and they started enjoying it. I'd tell them to go get a room or to go get help. But then again I find it rather silly to assume that a dog acting on instincts and hormones to actually be willing to give conscious consent on the same level that humans do. Do you think that homosexuals don't act like humans or are in human and are incapable of courting one another and interacting and giving sexual consent in the same manner as hetero sexual couples. Or do you honestly believe that homosexuals run around humping each others legs to incite mating??? Awwwhhh hell I know a bunch of straight kids that act that way during spring break.
"A person can stipulate in their will that their body is to be used for scientific research. Inasmuch as consent is an issue, the will constitutes consent. I believe that parents can give consent in this fashion for the body of their child. What if parents determined to sell the body of their child to a pedo-necrophile? Is anyone getting hurt here? Is any "force or fraud" involved? Is anyone being abused?"
This is a rather absurd scenario. I must wonder is a dead person actually capable of giving consent? Is a childs consent legally binding? No!
Parents giving consent to sell a dead corpse to private individuals for their own sexual gratification?!?!?
How on earth you managed to extrapolate such a scenario from two active, living, adult members of society who may wish to enagae in sex with each other is beyond me?!?!
Can we try a more reasonable discussion???
Not for "their own good," fellow, for the general societal good. People don't have the "freedom" to transmit deadly STDs, they don't have the right to father children they won't support, they don't have the right to clog up the courts with their failed marriages. See, regardless of what I believe is moral, I'm asked to pay for the consequences of all those "free choices." And I don't want to. I'd rather say you don't have the right to "choose" to saddle me with the social costs of your "choices."
You give a list of practical ramifications of laws regarding sexual behavior, then you label them as "fundamentally wrong." Historically in law all the things you mentioned have been considered wrong, not for practical reasons (as you list) but since they are "fundamentally wrong...." and as soon as morality...i.e. "wrong" is mentioned religious issues (even if tangental) come up.
Rape for example, is accepted in some societies today (and has been in many in the past)...with a kind of "boys will be boys" mentality. Incest was the way Egyptian Pharoahs were raised...(and a minority of those born to incest have genetic problems...though it is a SIGNIFICANT minority)...so in some cultures incest has been accepted. Beastiality has been accepted, in various times and cultures--as most all societies don't give a rip about animal "consent"(does your dog consent to that fence or leash?) and again it was seen as an outlet for the oversexed.... (gross, definitely.) The point is, in the history of our law, moral, not practical, bases were the reasons why those three deviant behaviors were (and are) outlawed. Homosexual behavior too, has been proscribed due to moral (and yes, religious) reasons.
Our very concept of human rights is based on those "endowed by the Creator" to quote Jefferson in the Declaration. Do you really think America has been a theocracy until the ACLU flexed its muscles???
Back to the specific issue however at the same time, without resorting to the religous, many practical reasons can be found to restrict homosexual behavior. These include, obviously, the spread of disease (since homosexual men by any measure are persistantly VERY promiscuous) (AIDS didn't spread through heterosexual monogamy now, did it?) Homosexual relationships tend to be more violence prone.... Homosexuals have a MUCH higher than average tendancy to molest children. (something like 1/3 to 1/2 of reported child molestations are homosexual....by a group which is less than 3%....you do the math). Finally, homosexuals do nothing to promote healthy interaction between the sexes--including the production of children. These are all practical (and yes arguable...as is your list, to some) reasons why homosexual behavior is not a good thing...but wait, there's that pesky word "good" which relates to values, which, ultimately must relate to religion...and has done so historically in our society and law, as in all others.
The acceptance of homosexual behavior or not, is not about the religous, vs. the practical or non-religous--its about one religious/value system vs. another... Secularism is as much a religion as the most backwoods bible thumper. Since it pretends not to be, to my way of thinking--it has even less tolerance.
Since you already know that to be true, I will not bother to present you with my own valid, sociological, non-Biblical reasons. I will also not ask scripter to bother showing you where he keeps his huge list of links with non-Biblical psychological and physiological reasons to declare homosexuality as a mental illness.
You already know what you know. Why confuse the issue with facts?
Actually, you go first. I have never seen such a study that was not discredited nearly as soon as it has come out. Currently the homosexual activists admit there is no validity to the "genetic" argument. Predisposition is not disproven, and is even likely, but that will not change the basic fact.
If you find a dead man, you can not tell if he was gay or straight. Until that changes, homosexuality is a behavior, not a trait.

The present invention relates essentially to an improved machine for insolating photopolymer plates for flexographic printing.
There has already been proposed machines suitable for carrying out the insolation of photopolymer plates with the assistance of a source of ultraviolet light.
In a general manner these machines comprise a frame above which is arranged at least one bank or row of ultraviolet lamps.
Upon the upper part of the frame underneath the bank of ultraviolet lamps one places a photopolymer plate which is insolated by the lamps through a negative film placed on the plate. The film-plate assembly is held under vacuum on the upper portion of the frame of the machine with the assistance of a transparent membrane.
It has now been found that the energy of the ultraviolet lamps heats the space defined by the transparent membrane and the upper portion of the frame of the machine, i.e. the space containing the negative film and the flexographic plate.
It results therefrom that in spite of the vacuum provided in that space, the latter forms a gas pocket which results in the separation or disconnection of the flexographic plate from the negative film.
One therefore is subjected to bad insolation conditions so that one eventually obtains a printing plate which is fuzzy.
More specifically after the insolation of the plate under the bad conditions stated hereinabove and after washing of this insolated plate with a solvent, it appears that there is a bad definition or resolution of the relief of the plate produced by the ultraviolet light which either travels through the transparent zones of the negative film or is stopped by the opaque zones of this film, so that the printing provided by this plate after inking thereof will be fuzzy.
Therefore the object of the present invention is to remedy these inconveniences by providing an improved machine owing to which the flexographic plate to be insolated will not undergo any disturbance or trouble due to the heat of the ultraviolet light lamps.
For that purpose, the subject of the invention is an improved machine for insolating photopolymer plates for flexographic printing of the type comprising a frame above which is located at least one source of ultraviolet light capable of insolating a photopolymer plate resting upon said frame through a negative film, the film and plate generally being overlaid with a transparent membrane and held thereby, under vacuum, on the frame. The improvement of the invention comprises means for cooling the upper portion of the frame in the vicinity of the membrane, the negative film, and the photopolymer plate.
According to one exemplary embodiment of this machine, the cooling means is a fan or blower or the like fastened sidewise to the frame and supplying a flow of cooling air tangential to the upper portion of the frame and to the aforesaid system.
According to another embodiment, the cooling means is a fan or blower or the like arranged above the source of ultraviolet light and delivering a flow of cooling air orthogonal to the upper portion of the frame and to the aforesaid system. In this latter case, the fan or blower may be arranged above one bank of fans for cooling the source of ultraviolet light itself disposed below the bank. Such a bank of fans has been present in prior art machines, but has not been effective to cool the area under the hood well below the lights, in the lower region when the photopolymer plate is resting.
Thus the simultaneous cooling of the ultraviolet lamps and of the flexographic plate together with its associated elements will be advantageously provided.
The invention will be better understood and further objects, characterizing features, details and advantages thereof will appear more clearly as the following explanatory description proceeds with reference to the accompanying diagrammatic drawings given by way of non limiting examples only illustrating two presently preferred specific embodiments of the invention and in which:
FIG. 1 is a diagrammatic elevational view of a machine according to the principles of the invention; and
FIG. 2 is a another diagrammatic elevational view but showing another embodiment of this machine.
On FIGS. 1 and 2 is seen that a machine for insolating photopolymer plates essentially comprises a frame 1 resting through the medium of feet 2 upon the ground S, which frame comprises and is topped by a hood-like element or the like 3 containing a source of ultraviolet light forming a bank or row of lamps designated at 4 according to the example shown.
The bank 4 permits the insolation with ultraviolet light of a plate made from a photopolymer material placed underneath the hood 3 upon the top portion 6 of the frame 1 of the machine. The plate 5 generally consists of a base 5a made from polyester and of a layer 5b of photosensitive polymer.
On the plate 5 is disposed a negative film 7 comprising transparent zones 7a and opaque zones 7b through which will therefore travel or not travel the ultraviolet light emitted by the bank of lamps 4 for insolating or not insolating the layer 5b of photosensitive polymer which after having been washed with a solvent and dried will comprise the reliefs desired for printing.
The system of negative film 7 and flexographic plate 5 will be held under vacuum upon the top portion 6 of the frame 1 owing to a transparent membrane 8 defining a space 9 between it and the top portion 6 of the frame 1.
At 10 on the Figures has been shown a bank of fans or blowers carried by the hood 3 of the frame 1 which fans, in the prior art, provided some cooling of the bank of ultraviolet lamps 4.
All the arrangements referred to hereinabove form part of the known state of prior art and do not require any additional explanations.
According to the invention, the machine which has just been described is fitted with at least one device for cooling the upper portion 6 of the frame 1 at the level of the system consisting of the membrane 8, the negative film 7 and the plate 5 of photopolymer material.
This device may be of any conventional cooling type, which may but need not include air-conditioning or precooled pulsating air, and will advantageously avoid the formation of a gas pocket within the space 9 between the membrane 8 and the top part 6 of the frame 1 in view of the heat generated by the bank of ultraviolet lamps 4, it being understood that the bank of small fans 10 is ineffective to avoid the formation of such gas pockets.
According to the exemplary embodiment shown on FIG. 1, the cooling device is a fan or blower 20 which is secured sidewise onto the frame 1 and more specifically below the hood 3 forming part of the frame and topping it as seen at 21.
Thus the fan or blower 20 will be adapted to deliver a flow 22 of cooling air substantially tangential to the upper part 6 of the frame and therefore to the system consisting of the membrane 8, the negative film 7 and the plate of photosensitive polymer 5.
According to another embodiment as seen in FIG. 2, the cooling device is a fan or blower 23 that has been disposed above the bank 4 of ultraviolet light so as to supply a flow 24 of cooling air substantially orthogonal to the upper part 6 of the frame 1, therefore supplying the cooling air to the system of the membrane 8, the negative film 7, and the plate of photopolymer 5 resting upon the said upper part.
More specifically the fan 23 is at its outlet provided with a skirt or the like 25 which is fastened onto the hood 3 of the frame 1 above the bank of fans 2 for cooling the ultraviolet lamps 4.
Thus owing to such an arrangement, the bank of lamps 4 as well as the system consisting of the membrane 8, of the film 7, of the photosensitive polymer plate 5 resting upon the top part 6 of the frame 1 will be effectively and simultaneously cooled.
The invention therefore provides a machine for insolating photopolymer plates which avoids any adverse affects to the relief images on the photosensitive polymer plate 5 that might otherwise be caused by the energy radiated by the ultraviolet lamps insolating the plate.
The invention is not limited to the embodiments described and illustrated which have been given by way of examples only.
Thus the lamps of ultraviolet light may be arranged in any manner whatsoever and provided in any number and likewise the cooling device fitting the machine may be of any type whatsoever.
This means that the invention comprises all the technical equivalents of the means described as well as their combinations if the latter fall within the scope of the appended claims.

This law is now in full force. Since the days of Solon down to the present time, it would be difficult to discover another piece of legislation equal to it in stupidity and uselessness. It would not be unreasonable to suppose, that the framer of this law had just emerged from the midnight of the Dark Ages in the form of a medical Rip Van Winkle, and through the thin mist of his recently acquired vision, saw the apparent dangerous condition of his professional brethren, as well as his constituents; then, after due deliberation, resolved to redeem the State from quackery, and thereby become a public benefactor in his day. But the reverse is the case.
The miserable charlatan, ignorant of anatomy and physiology; ignorant of every scientific fact in relation to the human system; destitute of every professional qualification, is a legal practitioner of medicine.

Our 2015 Riesling is a wonderfully juxtaposed wine – poised on the edge with both a luscious texture and lively acidity.
Pure pale lemon in colour, the wine's aromatics speak to our vineyard's surroundings, showcasing an abundance of orchard fruit and wild flowers. The palate is all at once light with a Spring rain freshness yet still holds weight and complexity.
At the core is an intense citrus character underpinned by notes of cardamom and apple skin and met alongside roasted pineapple and quince – hallmarks of a very warm growing season. The finish shows classic Tantalus intensity and focus with no shortage of mouth-watering length.
The 2015 growing season gave us record-breaking heat but the balance in our Riesling remained intact. Curiously, once temperatures reach above 35 degrees Celsius, vines enter a dormant protective mode. Our very warm July in particular saw steady and slow ripening as opposed to what one might expect. Cooler September evenings soon arrived and offered a welcome relief as harvest commenced and the ripening phase finished off.
With a series of warm growing seasons behind us, our dedication to thoughtfully promote a healthy, balanced vineyard is paramount. Organic nutrient additions and precise canopy and irrigation management all play a vital role. In addition, we continue to farm as sustainably as possible – without the use of herbicides or pesticides. Our honey bee apiary is thriving and we're amazed at the diversity of resident species that can be found on our property – a true testament for us to the health of our site.
- 91 POINTS – "The wine has intense aromas and flavours of citrus mingled with notes of spice and with lively acidity." John Schreiner, April 2016, John Schreiner on Wine
- 93 POINTS – "Chic, racy, focused. There's little wonder why Tantalus has so many devoted fans, their Rieslings are their flagship and here is yet another stunning example. It is undeniably pristine, offering crunchy green apples, mineral, apricot, spring blossoms, honey and lemondrops on the nose. Expect amazing tension and concentration juxtaposed with focus and style. It boasts an oily weight with a tangy and lengthy lemon-lime finish.
Chic yet entirely gulpable." Daenna Van Mulligan, June 2016, WineScores.ca
- 90 POINTS – "This is youthful and exuberant but also nicely compact and complex. There is lemon, pineapple, fresh herbs and wet stone on the nose, with a subtle subtext of youthful yeast/graininess. It's mid-weight, firm and juicy but not austere. The fruit hits excellent length with some feint honeyed and floral complexity as well. Tasted April 2016." David Lawrason, April 2016, WineAlign.com
- 90 POINTS – "Well with the arena of aridity, salinity and sheer marketability, here is a showy Tantalus with super searing lemon flavours emerging out of great atmosphere and aromatic intensity. Some Riesling taketh away and some are mouth watering, like this. The stone fruit goodness attacks and sticks to the tongue like sap, then glides effortlessly down. Tantalus might make me think of things that are out of reach, "standing in water, but dying of thirst, this is my thanks and this is my curse." Yet this early to market 2015 Riesling offers an antithetical view, ready, willing and able to please. Drink 2016-2019. Tasted April 2016." Michael Godel, April 2016, WineAlign.com
- 90 POINTS – "A superb BC Riesling with aromas of wet stone, lemon, lime and chives. Pair with vegetarian dishes." Natalie MacLean, May 2016, NatalieMacLean.com

Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/2009-10-05/News and notes
Article Incubator, Wikipedians take Manhattan, new features in testing, and much more
Article Incubator launches
Wikipedia:Article Incubator, a space for the development of new articles with potential, has been launched by User:Fritzpoll and User:GTBacchus. The aim of the incubator is to save articles from deletion if they show the potential to meet Wikipedia standards. It is suggested as a better solution than userfication as it allows collaborative editing and improvement to continue, and avoids issues over ownership where there are multiple contributors.
User:Fritzpoll says: "We have two major problems around good-faith new articles that aren't up to our standards: the need to get them out of the mainspace and the desire not to bite new editors. The Article Incubator should help with both and we'll take articles from any venue where it is deemed appropriate: CSD, PROD, AfD, AfC, etc." The project is currently looking for more editors to help develop incubated articles.
Wikipedians take Manhattan
Wikipedia Takes Manhattan is a planned scavenger hunt and free content photography contest coordinated with Columbia University and New York University students and The Open Planning Project, aimed at illustrating Wikipedia and Streetswiki articles covering the wondrous sights of the isle of Manhattan, and all across the Five Boroughs of New York City.
Scheduled for Saturday, 10 October 2009, this event will be a sequel to last spring's Wikipedia Takes Manhattan (WTM-1) and last fall's Wikis Take Manhattan (WTM-2) event. Participants may register their team here.
Liquid threads test goes live
On Friday, Wikimedia contract developer Andrew Garrett announced an open beta test of David McCabe's LiquidThreads extension, described as "a next-generation discussion system for MediaWiki". The extension, originally developed as a Google Summer of Code project, replaces talk pages with a full-featured forum system, facilitating more organised and effective discussion.
New usability features released
The second release of features from the Wikimedia usability team was released this week, codenamed Babaco. The features enhance the editing window and editing toolbar, and can be enabled through User preferences, by going to the 'Editing' tab and selecting 'Experimental features.'
Portraits from Commons used in official Nobel Prize announcement
In today's online announcement of the winners of the 2009 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, the Nobel Prize committee used free photos from Wikimedia Commons to depict two of the three prize winners, Elizabeth Blackburn and Carol W. Greider. The captions mention the "Attribution Share Alike 3.0" license and duly credit the photos to "Gerbil", a user on Commons and the German Wikipedia who took them in March 2009 at Goethe University in Frankfurt, Germany.
German Arbcom dissolves
Since last week the second largest Wikipedia has been left without a central institution for conflict resolution, after seven members of the arbitration committee ("Schiedsgericht") resigned at once, leaving only two active arbitrators, below the minimum of five. The resignation statements cited multiple reasons, among them internal conflicts, lack of a clear mandate in certain matters, and lack of authority within the community. The German Wikipedia had introduced an ArbCom in April 2007, at a time when such an institution already existed on ten other Wikimedia projects (some of which were consulted about their experiences). Discussion is ongoing, with many users opining that electing new arbitrators won't be enough to solve the problem and that some sort of reform is needed. In April 2009, the Spanish Wikipedia voted to abolish its ArbCom ("Comité de Resolución de Conflictos") altogether.

- Wikizine #119 has been posted.
- The Armenian Wikipedia has reached 5,000 articles.
- The Serbian Wikinews has reached 15,000 news reports, overtaking the English Wikinews to become the largest Wikinews version (by number of articles).
This week in history
- 3 October 2005: Speedy deletion of copyright violations approved
- 3 October 2005: The English Wikipedia reaches 750,000 articles
- 1 October 2007: RSS feed for RecentChanges added to all pages
- Seeing a photo credited to a "Gerbil" on the Nobel Prize site is very amusing. :) Rockfang (talk) 07:03, 6 October 2009 (UTC)
- I think we can expect to see the resignation of the German and the abolition of the Spanish ArbComs having an effect here. There's been considerable controversy generated this year by the en ArbCom. The current governance model is failing. --Hammersoft (talk) 17:30, 6 October 2009 (UTC)
- I agree that in policy discussion it can be very useful to examine the experiences of other projects in analogous matters. However, it also has to be said that there exist considerable differences between arbcoms on different projects. In the article I already alluded to the late founding of the German arbcom. And it seems that at least the "lack of authority" concerns would apply less here on en:. To to quote Tinz, a longtime admin on de: (and member of the Wikimedia Foundation's ombudsman commission): "[On the English Wikpedia] they have arbcom problems which are very different from ours (my impression: The arbcom institution is recognized by the community as an authority, has much more power than the Schiedsgericht ever had, but a few individual members cause petty scandals every now and then)."[1]. Regards, HaeB (talk) 22:02, 6 October 2009 (UTC)

This is a great recipe. It's got tons of flavor, inexpensive ingredients, and it was very easy to make. I followed the other reviewers and used canned tomatoes and canned beans. I will be making this again for sure!
This soup is delicious. I used a can of petite diced tomatos instead of fresh tomatos and 8 cups of water instead of stock. Did everything else as directed. Thank you for sharing.
