Technology Transfer Network - Air Toxics Web Site
Hazard Summary-Created in April 1992; Revised in January 2000
Formaldehyde is used mainly to produce resins used in particleboard products and as an intermediate in the synthesis of other chemicals. Exposure to formaldehyde may occur by breathing contaminated indoor air, tobacco smoke, or ambient urban air. Acute (short-term) and chronic (long-term) inhalation exposure to formaldehyde in humans can result in respiratory symptoms, and eye, nose, and throat irritation. Limited human studies have reported an association between formaldehyde exposure and lung and nasopharyngeal cancer. Animal inhalation studies have reported an increased incidence of nasal squamous cell cancer. EPA considers formaldehyde a probable human carcinogen (Group B1).
Please Note: The main sources of information for this fact sheet are EPA's Health and Environmental Effects Profile for Formaldehyde and the Integrated Risk Information System (IRIS), which contains information on oral chronic toxicity and the RfD, and the carcinogenic effects of formaldehyde including the unit cancer risk for inhalation exposure.
- Formaldehyde is used predominantly as a chemical intermediate. It also has minor uses in agriculture, as an analytical reagent, in concrete and plaster additives, cosmetics, disinfectants, fumigants, photography, and wood preservation. (1,2)
- One of the most common uses of formaldehyde in the U.S is manufacturing urea-formaldehyde resins, used in particleboard products. (7)
- Formaldehyde (as urea formaldehyde foam) was extensively used as an insulating material until 1982 when it was banned by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. (1,2)
Sources and Potential Exposure
- The highest levels of airborne formaldehyde have been detected in indoor air, where it is released from various consumer products such as building materials and home furnishings. One survey reported formaldehyde levels ranging from 0.10 to 3.68 parts per million (ppm) in homes. Higher levels have been found in new manufactured or mobile homes than in older conventional homes. (1)
- Formaldehyde has also been detected in ambient air; the average concentrations reported in U.S. urban areas were in the range of 11 to 20 parts per billion (ppb). The major sources appear to be power plants, manufacturing facilities, incinerators, and automobile exhaust emissions. (7)
- Smoking is another important source of formaldehyde. (1)
- Formaldehyde may also be present in food, either naturally or as a result of contamination. (1)
Assessing Personal Exposure
- Blood levels of formaldehyde can be measured. However, these measurements are only useful when exposure to relatively large amounts of formaldehyde has occurred. (2)
Health Hazard InformationAcute Effects:
- The major toxic effects caused by acute formaldehyde exposure via inhalation are eye, nose, and throat irritation and effects on the nasal cavity. Other effects seen from exposure to high levels of formaldehyde in humans are coughing, wheezing, chest pains, and bronchitis. (1,2)
- Ingestion exposure to formaldehyde in humans has resulted in corrosion of the gastrointestinal tract and inflammation and ulceration of the mouth, esophagus, and stomach. (1,2)
- Acute animal tests in rats and rabbits have shown formaldehyde to have high acute toxicity from inhalation, oral, and dermal exposure. (3)
- Chronic exposure to formaldehyde by inhalation in humans has been associated with respiratory symptoms and eye, nose, and throat irritation. (1,2,4,5)
- Repeated contact with liquid solutions of formaldehyde has resulted in skin irritation and allergic contact dermatitis in humans. (5)
- Animal studies have reported effects on the nasal respiratory epithelium and lesions in the respiratory system from chronic inhalation exposure to formaldehyde. (1,2,4,5)
- The Reference Dose (RfD) for formaldehyde is 0.2 milligrams per kilogram body weight per day (mg/kg/d) based on a decrease in body weight gain and effects on the stomach in rats. The RfD is an estimate (with uncertainty spanning perhaps an order of magnitude) of a daily oral exposure to the human population (including sensitive subgroups) that is likely to be without appreciable risk of deleterious noncancer effects during a lifetime. It is not a direct estimator of risk but rather a reference point to gauge the potential effects. At exposures increasingly greater than the RfD, the potential for adverse health effects increases. Lifetime exposure above the RfD does not imply that an adverse health effect would necessarily occur. (6)
- EPA has high confidence in the study on which the RfD was based since it consisted of an adequate number of animals of both sexes, as well as a thorough examination of toxicological and histological parameters; medium confidence in the database as several additional chronic bioassays and reproductive and developmental studies support the critical effect and study; and, consequently, medium confidence in the RfD. (6)
- EPA has not established a Reference Concentration (RfC) for formaldehyde. (6)
- The Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) has established a chronic inhalation minimal risk level (MRL) of 0.003 ppm (0.004 milligrams per cubic meter, mg/m3) based on respiratory effects in humans. The MRL is an estimate of the daily human exposure to a hazardous substance that is likely to be without appreciable risk of adverse noncancer health effects over a specified duration of exposure. (7)
- An increased incidence of menstrual disorders were observed in female workers using urea-formaldehyde resins. However, possible confounding factors were not evaluated in this study. (1,2)
- A study of hospital equipment sterilizing workers did not report an association between formaldehyde exposure and increased spontaneous abortions. (1,2)
- Developmental effects, such as birth defects, have not been observed in animal studies with formaldehyde. (1,2)
- Occupational studies have noted statistically significant associations between exposure to formaldehyde and increased incidence of lung and nasopharyngeal cancer. This evidence is considered to be "limited," rather than "sufficient," due to possible exposure to other agents that may have contributed to the excess cancers. (1,6)
- Animal studies have reported an increased incidence of nasal squamous cell carcinomas by inhalation exposure. (1,6)
- EPA considers formaldehyde to be a probable human carcinogen (cancer-causing agent) and has ranked it in EPA's Group B1. (6)
- EPA uses mathematical models, based on animal studies, to estimate the probability of a person developing cancer from breathing air containing a specified concentration of a chemical. EPA calculated an inhalation unit risk estimate of 1.3 × 10-5 (µg/m3)-1. EPA estimates that, if an individual were to continuously breathe air containing formaldehyde at an average of 0.08 µg/m3 (8.0 x 10-5 mg/m3) over his or her entire lifetime, that person would theoretically have no more than a one-in-a-million increased chance of developing cancer as a direct result of breathing air containing this chemical. Similarly, EPA estimates that breathing air containing 0.8 µg/m3 (8.0 x 10-4 mg/m3) would result in not greater than a one-in-a-hundred thousand increased chance of developing cancer, and air containing 8.0 µg/m3 (8.0 x 10-3 mg/m3) would result in not greater than a one-in-ten-thousand increased chance of developing cancer. For a detailed discussion of confidence in the potency estimates, please see IRIS. (6)
Physical Properties
- The chemical formula for formaldehyde is CH2O and the molecular weight is 30.03 g/mol. (1)
- The vapor pressure for formaldehyde is 10 mm Hg at -88 °C, and its log octanol/water partition coefficient (log Kow) is -0.65. (1)
- Formaldehyde is a colorless gas with a pungent, suffocating odor at room temperature; the odor threshold for formaldehyde is 0.83 ppm. (1,8)
- Formaldehyde is readily soluble in water at room temperature. (1)
- Commercial formaldehyde is produced and sold as an aqueous solution containing 37 to 50 percent formaldehyde by weight. (1)
Conversion Factors:
To convert concentrations in air (at 25°C) from ppm to mg/m3: mg/m3 = (ppm) × (molecular weight of the compound)/(24.45). For formaldehyde: 1 ppm = 1.23 mg/m3.
ACGIH STEL--American Conference of Governmental and Industrial Hygienists' short-term exposure limit expressed as a time-weighted average exposure; the concentration of a substance which should not be exceeded at any time during a workday.
LC50 (Lethal Concentration50)--A calculated concentration of a chemical in air to which exposure for a specific length of time is expected to cause death in 50% of a defined experimental animal population.
NIOSH IDLH--National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health's immediately dangerous to life or health limit; NIOSH recommended exposure limit to ensure that a worker can escape from an exposure condition that is likely to cause death or immediate or delayed permanent adverse health effects or prevent escape from the environment.
NIOSH REL--NIOSH's recommended exposure limit; NIOSH recommended exposure limit for an 8- or 10-h time-weighted average exposure and/or ceiling.
OSHA PEL--Occupational Safety and Health Administration's permissible exposure limit expressed as a time-weighted average; the concentration of a substance to which most workers can be exposed without adverse effect averaged over a normal 8-h workday or a 40-h workweek.

Uruguay is Latinamerica's most gay-friendly country and ranks tenth worldwide
Uruguay was deemed the friendliest toward gay in Latinamerica and among the top countries in the world, according to the latest Spartacus International Gay Travel Index which ranks 139 countries worldwide.
Globally Sweden was described as the most gay-friendly country while Iran was deemed the least friendly toward gay coming in dead last.
Argentina and Brazil also rank among the top thirty countries while Mexico position 45 is ahead of the USA which came in at 47. However three Latam countries were ranked close to the bottom coming at position 104: Honduras, Panama and Peru.
The friendliest countries, according to Spartacus, are Sweden, Belgium, France, Netherlands, UK, Canada, Denmark, Iceland, Norway, Spain and Uruguay.
The ranking took into consideration a country's HIV-travel restrictions, religious stances on homosexuality, anti-gay legislation enacted, crimes against homosexuals and the countries stance on gay marriage.
The Spartacus International Gay Travel Index rates all of the Spartacus destinations listed in the Spartacus International Gay Guide according to the laws and local customs of each country and religious influence. The index has 14 categories ranging from gay-marriage to death penalty for homosexuals.
This list is updated on a regular basis, allowing trends to be seen–positive as well as negative changes to the gay world. The last update was February 28 this year.
The Spartacus Gay Travel Index is divided into positive and negative categories, green and red. Some of the categories have a maximum of 3 levels and for this reason a maximum of 3 points can be awarded. In the case of the death sentence, due to its severity and also because there are 5 countries worldwide which implement the death sentence for those caught interacting in homosexual terms, a maximum of -5 points are attributed to these countries – ensuring that these countries are at the bottom of our list.
Some of the negative categories reflect the degree of negative influence – for example the category »religious influence«. Because the influence of the Catholic Church is stronger in the Vatican City than it is in Portugal for example (where the Catholic Church still plays an important negative role) the Vatican City was "awarded" -2 points and Portugal only -1.Check the Spartacus International Gay Travel Index

This is a discussion on Free Software MicroKernel and Embeded Market improve Security - Linux ; Open Kernel Labs (OK Labs) has upgraded its microkernel operating system (OS) and Linux-friendly virtual machine environment for embedded devices.

Open Kernel Labs (OK Labs) has upgraded its microkernel operating system
(OS) and Linux-friendly virtual machine environment for embedded devices.
OKL4 version 2.0 adds technology aimed at protecting a phone's call-making
capabilities despite attacks, malware, or faults within OSes,
applications, and drivers.
OKLabs claims its OKL4 microkernel to be the top embedded virtualization
environment in the mobile phone market, in terms of units deployed. Now
shipping in "millions of units per month," according to company claims,
the product has seen use in multiple Linux-based handset models from
Toshiba, and in multiple Windows CE-based devices from Taiwanese
manufacturing giant HTC. The microkernel's thin hardware abstraction layer
also supports Symbian as a guest OS, CEO Steve Subar (pictured below) told
LinuxDevices in a recent interview.
Version 2.0 of the OKL4 kernel aims to bolster a mobile device's
protection against malware and destructive hackers, says OK Labs, while
also insulating mobile phone software from the effects of poorly-behaved
code like flaky drivers. According to the company, all these mobile
software security threats will grow as carriers begin to open up to
out-of-network handsets.
The main new security feature in OKL4 v2 is a "Secure HyperCell"
technology aimed at encapsulating and protecting critical software
components from the rest of the system. The unspoken goal here is probably
to ensure that a phone can still make and take calls even if there is a
fault in a complex OS such as Linux, in a device driver needed for some
new peripheral, or in a new application rolled out around some data
service. No call means no income for the operators.
OKLabs OKL4 v.2
(Click to enlarge)
Each "Secure HyperCell" can cloister away a guest OS, an application, or
an individual device driver, OKLabs says. With each component segregated
into its own HyperCell, engineers can use IPC keys (depicted in the
diagram above) to control which components can communicate, and when. The
net payoff for handset makers is the ability to add functionality
incrementally, while keeping devices secure, says OKLabs. Subar observes
that another intriguing benefit could be sharing device drivers between
multiple OS instances.
Unlike Linux and other "monolithic" operating systems, OKL4 is a
microkernel operating system (OS) that runs only the bare essentials in
kernel mode. This results in the smallest possible "trusted security
base," the company says. Non-essentials like device drivers run in user
mode, affording some protection from misbehaving drivers, one of the most
common causes of OS freezes, Subar notes.
Fluffy Spider FancyPants screen
Despite its microkernel architecture, OKL4 does have a tiny, native,
POSIX-compliant real-time execution environment, which is said to allow
for the implementation of services that would be impossible or impractical
to implement outside the kernel. OKL4's native application environment can
also be used for the UI software on low-end phones, Subar suggested. In
fact, at least one lightweight graphics framework has been ported to the
environment -- Fluffy Spider FancyPants, a GUI stack claimed to require
less that 3MB of disk space, while offering sophisticated special effects
like overlain on-screen elements, images, and playing videos.
The OKL4 microkernel implements a lightweight hardware abstraction layer
on top of which one or more virtual machines can be configured to run a
guest OS. Subar describes this approach as "true virtualization,"
contrasting it with "OS co-location" capabilities offered by competing
Asked about performance penalties associated with hardware abstraction,
Subar acknowledged a slowdown in the low single-digit percentage range,
while suggesting that OKL4 offers faster interprocess communications (IPC)
than competing products that use the hardware abstraction layer approach.
"We have very high performance IPC. We claim to have the fastest embedded
IPC on ARM, MIPS, and Itanium, and so far [that claim] has been
Asked about OKL4's support for MIPS64 and Itanium -- architectures popular
on the other side of the wire, in telecom infrastructure -- Subar
suggested it was a market the company hoped to move into. "We think that
moving from a medium-paranoia segment to a high-paranoia segment is a good
growth path," he said.
Meanwhile, competitor VirtualLogix has been trying to do the reverse, with
the "Mobile Handset" version of its VLX stack. VirtualLogix evolved from
Jaluna which in turn evolved from ChorusOS, a nano-kernel originally
developed by Sun Microsystems for telecom applications. VirtualLogix
recently received an equity investment by Motorola, which sells both
infrastructure equipment and mobile handsets. VirtualLogix has also had
considerable success on DSPs used in set-top boxes, and is also partly
funded by TI.
A third horse in the embedded virtualization products is Trango, which
offers a pure hypervisor product that eschews the native POSIX
environments built into the products of its competitors. Trango's recent
focus has been on adding support both for MIPS64 and ARM9 based
processors, suggesting it also divides it attention between the
infrastructure and mobile device markets.
It's tempting to wonder whether the future will bring continued
competition, or possibly some consolidation to the embedded virtualization
market. Subar noted that according to VDC figures, the two largest
"embedded" software market verticals are mobile wireless and consumer
electronics, together accounting for 55 percent. Networking infrastructure
comes third, at 15 percent of the $1.9 billion market, or about $285
Toshiba W47T
(Click for details)
OK Labs launched a year ago in April as a Chicago-based spin-off of NICTA
(National Information/Communication Technology, Australia), an Australian
government-sponsored thinktank. NICTA previously supplied an "L4"
microkernel to phone chip giant Qualcomm, and Qualcomm customer Toshiba is
said to have used the stack in its W47T phone (pictured at right). Subar
said OKLabs maintains a very close working relationship with NICTA,
something he felt might be an advantage, in the long term. "Everyone
claims to have a big R&D budget, but for most it's a big 'D' and little
In a statement, Subar said, "OKL4's capability-based security can prevent
data leakage by untrusted code. With increasing amounts of personal
information on handsets, preventing identity theft through mobile viruses
is paramount."
OKL4 2.0 is shipping now, says OK Labs, available under an open source or
a commercial license. In addition, OK Labs offers customization services,
processor architecture porting, and training.

A group of preservationists tried to save a stately, but deteriorating historic home in Bardstown.
Anatok was a 165-year-old red brick house linked to a 19th century black Catholic civil-rights activist that sits on the campus of a Catholic high school in the historic center of Bardstown.
School Principal Tom Hamilton told The Courier Journal that affordable preservation ideas were unsuccessfully sought two years ago and so officials eventually decided to tear the structure down.
However, Kentucky Trust for Historic Preservation and other plaintiffs took the issue to court and a judge issued a stay that keeps the school from demolishing the building until a hearing can be held on Jan. 7.

The much loved online transaction service Paypal has found a way to incorporate their services into both the Android and iPhone marketplaces. This will allow application purchases through Paypal accounts on both the Google marketplace, and the iPhone application store. The interesting part: Apple has already agreed to support the update.
I personally love that Paypal is pushing to get their service onto every platform. And it especially lifts privacy concerns. Allowing Paypal to make all of my purchases for me keeps fraudulent sites from stealing my money, and keeps things simple by attaching one credit card to my account instead of having to keep track of what I spent where.
Paypal plans to launch their In App payment service sometime in Q2 to the US, Canada, UK, France, Italy, The Netherlands and Australia.

Myths and facts about domestic violence
Myth: Domestic violence does not affect many people.
Fact: Nearly one in three adult women experiences at least one physical assault by a partner during adulthood. (American Psychological Assn., Violence and the Family: Report of the American Psychological Association Presidential Task Force on Violence and the Family, 1996)
Myth: Battering is only a momentary loss of temper.
Fact: Battering is the establishment of control and fear in a relationship through violence and other forms of abuse. The batterer uses acts of violence and a series of behaviors, including intimidation, threats, psychological abuse, isolation, etc. to coerce and to control the other person. The violence may not happen often, but it remains as a hidden (and constant) terrorizing factor. (Uniform Crime Reports, Federal Bureau of Investigation, 1990)
Two thirds of women physically assaulted by an intimate said they were victimized multiple times by the same partner in a 12-month period. (NVAW Survey, July 2000)
Myth: Domestic violence only occurs in poor, urban areas.
Fact: Women of all cultures, races, occupations, income levels, and ages are battered - by husbands, boyfriends, lovers and partners (Surgeon General Antonia Novello, as quoted in Domestic Violence: Battered Women, publication of the Reference Department of the Cambridge Public Library, Cambridge, MA)
"Approximately one-third of the men counseled (for battering) at Emerge (Perpetrator's Intervention Program) are professional men who are well respected in their jobs and their communities. These have included doctors, psychologists, lawyers, ministers, and business executives. (For Shelter and Beyond, Massachusetts Coalition of Battered Women Service Groups, Boston, MA 1990)
Myth: Domestic violence is just a push, slap or punch -- it does not produce serious injuries.
Fact: More than one third of all rapes and physical assaults committed against women by intimates results in injury in which women receive some medical care. (NVAW Survey, July 2000)
Most research reports that violence against women escalates during pregnancy. One study found that 37 percent of obstetric patients were physically abused during pregnancy. (A. Helton, "Battering during pregnancy," American Journal of Nursing , August 1986.) Each year, medical expenses from domestic violence total at least $3 to $5 billion (Domestic Violence for Health Care Providers, 3rd Edition, Colorado Domestic Violence Coalition, 1991.)
Myths from a friend's perspective
Myth: Why should I get involved in her problem--isn't it just a family matter?
Fact: Domestic violence is not just a family problem, it is a crime.
Myth: It can't really be that bad.
Fact: Domestic violence is that bad. It is the single most common source of injury to women, more common than automobile accidents, muggings, and rape by a stranger combined. It increases in severity and frequency over time. It is estimated that over 2 million American women are beaten in their homes each year. It is a crime.
Myth: That doesn't happen in my neighborhood.
Fact: Domestic violence occurs among all races, ages, religions and socio-economic levels. No state, no city, no community and no neighborhood is immune.
Myth: She must be provoking him.
Fact: She is a victim and is not to blame. No one deserves to be beaten. The abuser chooses to abuse her to maintain power and control in the relationship.
Myth: If it's so bad, why doesn't she just leave?
Fact: Any relationship can be difficult to end. She may be financially dependent or have limited job skills. Religious, cultural or family pressures may keep her in the marriage. She may have tried to leave and he stopped her; he may have threatened to take the children from her, or harm her more if she leaves him. Over 75 percent of women are killed after they leave an abusive partner.
Myth: I know him. He seems like a nice guy.
Fact: Many abusers are not violent in other relationships. They even can appear 'charming' to outsiders. However, this does not indicate the kind of person he is behind closed doors. Believe her.
Myth: He has a drinking problem. May be if he just got help for it, he'd stop abusing her.
Fact: Alcohol and drug use many intensify violent behavior, but it does not cause battering. Men are abusive with and without alcohol and drugs. Abusers want all the power and control in the relationship and that is their motivation; not the substances they use or abuse.
Myth: If she wanted my help, she'd ask for it.
Fact: Your friend may not feel comfortable revealing her situation to you. She may be embarrassed or humiliated.
Myth: She seems distant. I don't know if we're still friends.
Fact: Women in violent homes are often isolated from friends and family by their abusers. The abuser wants total control and does not want her talking to others. It is important to continue to reach out to her, and let her know you care.

Working mom's meal plight
Allow me to break down a day I had last week. Many working moms might not need much help imagining it.
- Drive like heck to Erie for an early doctors appointment.
- Work like heck to get a project off my desk that was due two days before.
- Take a rare lunch break to get gas and go to the bank.
- Make list of tasks to get done before 5 when I have to leave to get my son. There are too many. I guess that's why God made tomorrow.
- Speaking of tomorrow, I have to choose recipes to make for my column. This takes a long time. I might have to do it later tonight.
- I'll drive like heck to pick up J.R. It's nice out, so we'll play outside for a while, until J.R. is hungry and John's home and hungry.
- It will be 7 p.m. J.R. needs to be in the shower at 8.
Now, do I have time to make meatloaf?
That's right: No.
Not, at least, before I found this recipe for Mini Meat Loaves from Better Homes & Gardens.
Make the loaves little. They cook in 15 minutes.

Happily married
Beautiful daughter Kensington 10-4-10 (2yrs)
Expecting our lil boy Grayson soon!
The good news is that if you are induced this week, more than likely your baby will be absolutely fine. 37 weeks isn't too terribly early :)
Mom to- DD July '06, DS Feb '08, DD May '11, and DS Nov '12
Try to relax and remember that 37 weeks IS full-term, so if you do need to be induced this week your baby has the highest chances of being healthier than any other time in your pregnancy so far... from what I read at 37weeks babies have everything they need to survive in the real world, just from this point on they are working on gaining extra weight. Good luck mama!
Oh, and I will be 37 weeks tomorrow as well! =0)

You may have heard of a kind of super-organic farming called biodynamics. It's based on ideas developed in 1924 by Rudolf Steiner (1861-1925), for a course given to a group of farmers near Breslau (which was then in the eastern part of Germany and is now Wroclaw in Poland).
The course was developed in response to farmers' observations that soils had become depleted following the introduction of chemical fertilizers at the turn of the century.
A basic ecological principle of biodynamics is to conceive of the farm as a unique organism. Emphasis is placed on the integration of crops, recycling of nutrients and the maintenance of soil as a living thing. This sounds like an approach congenial to the French notion of terroir (tear-wahr), the idea that each vineyard has its own essential, irreplaceable taste. (That this notion is self-serving for the folks who own the small French vineyards with the high-priced grapes is something we'll talk about some other time.)

Board schedules public hearing on deseg plan
The St. Landry Parish School Board will hold a public hearing Monday, Aug. 25 at 6 p.m. to get input regarding a proposed desegregation plan.
Supt. Michael Nassif announced the hearing Thursday. It will be held at Opelousas High School.
The School Board has held several closed sessions to discussion formulation of a plan that will become the formal response to one proposed by the US Department of Justice.
In May, US District Judge Tucker Melancon gave the board 120 days to respond to the plan, saying it could accept it, reject it or propose one of its own.
Justice, tracking a plan drafted by the Melancon's Bi-Racial Committee, proposes considerable change in school zones, primarily in the eastern part of the parish.
The board hired a demographer to prepare data for drafting its proposal and has met with him several times in executive session.

Malone's statement is offensive to many
In response to the Supreme Court's decision to overturn the Defense of Marriage Act, Buffalo's Catholic Bishop Richard Malone declared that "this is truly a tragic day for marriage and for our nation." I disagree wholeheartedly, and believe that his perpetual views of intolerance, exclusion and discrimination bare the true sense of tragedy. The number one cause of death among gay and lesbian youth is suicide. That's tragic! And there are societal reasons for this outcome; it's not so simplistic, as a sinful and willful choice.
Malone claimed that the Supreme Court's decision went against what "human reason teaches us about marriage" and spoke about the "true meaning of marriage." I believe his explanation for these claims contradicts any sense of human reason and truth and is offensive, not only to gay and lesbian parents and their children, but also to heterosexual (married or not), single and adoptive parents and their children. His views don't represent the views of my wife and I, as well as the many heterosexual parents in our community, some Catholic, who are trying to instill values of respect, openness and acceptance in our children.
Malone concluded his response, saying: "we pray for those who may suffer the consequences of the Supreme Court's mistaken decision." Well, I, along with many others in this community, will continue to advocate for and support those who are suffering from the consequences of careless and intolerant statements and views from leaders in our community.

1985 P. R. E. Pete Rose Set Uncut Sheet - Signed by Rose Ninety-Three Times!
Starting Bid - $300.00, Sold For - $2,232.50
If anyone ever doubted Barry Halper's passion for obtaining autographs, all they have to do is gaze upon this remarkable piece: an uncut sheet of 1985 P. R. E. Pete Rose baseball cards featuring ninety-three individual Pete Rose signatures. A total of ninety-one cards are displayed on the sheet and Rose has signed each one on the front in blue Sharpie. Additionally, Rose has inscribed each of the two blank white corners "Pete Rose #4256," for a total of ninety-three Rose signatures, which together give this sheet the visual impact of a pop art piece. All of the signatures are flawlessly scripted and grade "10." This set was issued in 1985 by Renata Galasso and the copyright holder is identified as P. R. E. (Pete Rose Enterprises). Lettering on the back of each card also indicates that the set was "Designed by Topps Chewing Gum Inc." A total of 120 cards were issued in the set. This uncut sheet features the first ninety cards in the set and includes a duplicate of card number one. The backs of the first three cards in the set offer career statistical information about Rose. Card numbers four through ninety in the set feature questions and answers about Rose on the reverse. The remaining thirty cards in the set are special puzzle-back cards, hence the use of two separate production sheets. This is almost certainly a unique Pete Rose signed item and one that offers tremendous visual appeal as well. The sheet measures 35.25 x 25.25 inches and has been framed to total dimensions of 39 x 29 inches. Ideally, it has been double Plexiglas framed so that both the front and back of the cards can be viewed if desired. In Near Mint condition. From the Barry Halper Collection. LOA from James Spence/JSA. Reserve $300. Estimate $500/$1,000+. SOLD FOR $2,232.50

Discouraging Election Contests
Joshua A. Douglas
University of Kentucky - College of Law
January 11, 2013
University of Richmond Law Review, Vol. 47, 2013
This brief article offers a few proposals for discouraging losing candidates from contesting the certified result of an election. Our system encourages – or at least does not dissuade – the filing of post-election contests in close races. But election contests are often bad for our democracy, as they can harm the ideals of finality, certainty, and legitimacy of the election process – with little tangible benefit given that most election contests fail, at least at the federal and statewide level. The article suggests three possible disincentives to initiating post-election litigation: we could eliminate any possibility for a candidate to challenge the certified result, require a large monetary filing fee or the posting of a high bond, or impose a public stigma on candidates who contest an election and lose. In the end, the goal of this article is to promote a broader discussion of the propriety of post-election litigation and what we can do to curtail it.

Law enforcement officers from across South Carolina heard from an Anti-Defamation League expert on right-wing extremism and domestic terrorism.
Approximately 330 South Carolina law enforcement officers attended the ADL presentations as part of the LECC (Law Enforcement Coordinating Committee) Anti-Terrorism for South Carolina Law Enforcement Conference on "Terrorists in our State" in North Charleston, Hartsville, Columbia and Greenville.
The LECCs are each coordinated by a staff member of the U.S. Attorney's Office, and involve federal, state, and local agencies.
The ADL expert addressed national white supremacist trends, ideologies, and criminal activities, and then focused on local South Carolina and Southeast extremist activity, hate symbols and tattoos to assist law enforcement in recognizing extremists and their activities in their area.
