Counterculture Through the Agesby Ken Goffman Dan Joy
As long as there has been culture, there has been counterculture. At times it moves deep below the surface of things, a stealth mode of being all but invisible to the dominant paradigm; at other times it's in plain sight, challenging the status quo; and at still other times it erupts in a fiery burst of creative-or destructive-energy to change the world forever. But until now the countercultural phenomenon has been one of history's great blind spots. Individual countercultures have been explored, but never before has a book set out to demonstrate the recurring nature of counterculturalism across all times and societies, and to illustrate its dynamic role in the continuous evolution of human values and cultures. Countercultural pundit and cyberguru R. U. Sirius brilliantly sets the record straight in this colorful, anecdotal, and wide-ranging study based on ideas developed by the late Timothy Leary with Dan Joy. With a distinctive mix of scholarly erudition and gonzo passion, Sirius and Joy identify the distinguishing characteristics of countercultures, delving into history and myth to establish beyond doubt that, for all their surface differences, countercultures share important underlying principles: individualism, anti-authoritarianism, and a belief in the possibility of personal and social transformation. Ranging from the Socratic counterculture of ancient Athens and the outsider movements of Judaism, which left indelible marks on Western culture, to the Taoist, Sufi, and Zen Buddhist countercultures, which were equally influential in the East, to the famous countercultural moments of the last century-Paris in the twenties, Haight-Ashbury in the sixties, Tropicalismo, women's liberation, punk rock-to the cutting-edge countercultures of the twenty-first century, which combine science, art, music, technology, politics, and religion in astonishing (and sometimes disturbing) new ways, Counterculture Through the Ages is an indispensable guidebook to where we've been . . . and where we're going.

About 100 firefighters battled Green Bay apartment complex fire
A hundred firefighters spent hours Thursday putting out a fire in an underground parking garage beneath a building of apartments in Green Bay, the Green Bay Press Gazette reported.
The fire, which started with a car, was reported around 8 a.m., and produced heavy, black smoke. The fire didn't spread above the garage because of a concrete ceiling, the article said. There were no injuries.
The $1.81 million property is owned by NAH LLC of Oak Creek, according to the article.

WASHINGTON DC—The human rights situation in China is deteriorating and it is time for its authoritarian government to allow dissent, said the United States on Wednesday.
Assistant Secretary of State Michael Posner was speaking after an annual US-China human rights dialogue that ended in Washington on Tuesday.
The closed-door dialogue is a chance to broach Beijing's treatment of democracy activists and religious and ethnic minorities—a perennial sore point in relations with Washington.
But the US has limited leverage with China, which it relies on as its main foreign creditor, and seeks to work with on a gamut of international issues. Also on Wednesday, President Barack Obama's top national security adviser completed talks with Chinese leaders in Beijing on North Korea, Iran, the civil strife in Syria and rebalancing the global economy.
Posner, whose portfolio covers democracy, human rights and labor issues, said there is growing frustration among many Chinese people that they don't have the ability to express their differences with the government.
"Our message to the Chinese government is you've made progress on the economic front, this is the moment to open up the space to allow people to dissent, to question government actions and to do so without fear of retribution," he told reporters.
Posner said the US raised with the Chinese dozens of individual cases of those persecuted that included lawyers, bloggers, nongovernment group activists, journalists and religious leaders.
He declined to characterize China's responses. He said the visiting delegation had questioned America's own human rights record, asking about discrimination and prison conditions.
The Chinese delegation was led by Ministry of Foreign Affairs Director General for International Organizations and Conferences Chen Xu. China's embassy in Washington did not respond to an email seeking comment on the dialogue.
Skeptics, including in the US Congress, have questioned whether the formal talks that China holds with Western powers on human rights have any use, and may help it fend off critics without taking action.
"A human rights dialogue with the communist regime in Beijing matters for little until the rule of law is genuinely rooted in Chinese soil," said Republican Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, hawkish chair of the House Committee on Foreign Affairs.
Posner said that activists in China, including family members of detainees, want the US to speak in public and private with Beijing, and pointed to growing attention rights issues draw among Chinese on the Internet and in blogs. He said the discussions are now "firmly embedded" in US-China relations and was confident this would "have an effect over time."
The US said it raised the conditions of ethnic and religious minorities in Tibet and the far western region of Xinjiang; the cases of imprisoned democracy activists Chen Wei and Chen Xi; Nobel Peace Laureate Liu Xiaobo; jailed lawyers Gao Zhisheng and Ni Yulan; and Feng Jianmei, a woman forced to have an abortion at seven months.
The US also called for China to allow legal counsel to criminal defendants such as the Chen Kegui, the nephew of dissident lawyer Chen Guangcheng, whose escape from house arrest and subsequent refuge at the US Embassy triggered a diplomatic crisis in May. Chen Kegui has been charged with attempted homicide for attacking local officials who burst into his father's house.
China. China. China. You are always troubling us.
Us.pls stop advocating to be world human right champion,chinan's human right situation is better than so called US.If us is so careful and sensitive about human rights then why us is silent to what has been happening with rohingyas where there are no human and no rights.It is the us who has given license myanmar General Thein Sien to kill innocents rohingyas in exchange to gain access to myanmar markets,In Arakan state thousand of people have been killed but American never rose any voices,as we are wonder and surprise that us were urging to bangladesh to except rohingyas and no words for the country who is responsible and problems creator.
If you were in mainland China, and you commented as such about the Chinese government, you would be in a Chinese jail by now. If you were in mainland China, and went to Hong Kong to make such comments, China wouldn't arrest you until you returned to the mainland.
China has recently bragged about the arrest of 10,000 "cybercriminals" who have committed similar "crimes".
They mixed in some real criminals into their statistics to provide a veil of decency. The worst form of government is the one that supports the lavish lifestyles of its leaders, no matter how many of its worthy citizens it has to throw in jail.
A specific victim of Beijing's human rights abuse is 2010 Nobel Peace Prize laureate Liu Xiaobo. Liu is serving an 11-year prison term for "inciting subversion" over his role in drafting Charter 08, an online petition advocating peaceful political change in China and respect for rights and freedoms embodied in the country's constitution. Efforts to silence him extend to his wife, Liu Xia, who is believed to be under house arrest to prevent her from campaigning on her husband's behalf. There was nary a whisper of the Chinese government's ongoing campaign of harassment, detention, imprisonment and disappearance of people like Liu – who ask only for the rights and freedoms embodied in both international and domestic law.

Amazon Inc Founder Jeff Bezos Buys Washington Post For $250M
Amazon Inc founder Jeff Bezos has agreed to buy the newspaper assets of the Washington Post Co, including its flagship daily, for $250 million.
The surprise deal, announced on Monday (August 5), follows the New York Times Co's sale of the Boston Globe for $70 million, and is a further indication of the unprecedented challenges newspapers face as advertising revenue and readership declines.
Washington Post Chairman and Chief Executive Donald E. Graham, whose family owns the paper, said it would be better served with another owner.
Bezos, who has built Seattle-based Amazon.com into a shopping and online technology force over the last two decades, made a small foray into media earlier this year with a small investment in internet news site Business Insider.
In a letter published on the Washington Post's website, Bezos promised no radical change.
Amazon.com is to be kept separate from the Post deal.
The transaction covers The Washington Post and other publishing businesses, including the Express newspaper, The Gazette Newspapers, Southern Maryland Newspapers, Fairfax County Times, El Tiempo Latino and Greater Washington Publishing.

Travis Wood's Improbable Run
Travis Wood has a 2.03 ERA and a 0.90 WHIP. He's now thrown 53.1 innings and given up only 31 hits, striking out 36 opposing batters. Travis Wood will destroy all comers.
That's probably what owners are telling you anyway.
You don't have to dig too deep to notice that Wood's FIP is 3.65 and xFIP is 4.46 (his career xFIP is 4.44). His strikeout rate and walk rates are lined up neatly with his career averages (and neither are very good), and he's really living off that .186 BABIP and 83% strand rate. If you're busy, there's the end of the story, move on to another award winner by Jeff Sullivan.
But what always bugs me about just relying on the predictors and the obvious dumb luck factors is the matter of Travis Wood still accomplishing this. He didn't just Philip Humber. He's completely dominated over eight starts. Shouldn't there be a bigger back story here? Turns out, well, possibly.
The most obvious change is in what pitches he's throwing. The change isn't dramatic, but it's been pretty consistent across starts, so you can draw a reasonably stable conclusion that it's intentional. On the whole, Wood is throwing fewer four seam fastballs, more cutters, and quite a bit more sliders:
Maybe, just maybe, someone took a peek at his pitch type values because his cut fastball and his slider were his two best pitches from 2012 and so far they've been far and away his best pitches in 2013. His velocity hasn't changed appreciably on any of these offerings, but what seems to have changed is his philosophy against right handed batters relative to his repertoire.
First of all, Wood has always been murder on left handed batters, holding them to a .208/.286/.336 slash line with a 20% strikeout rate and 7.2% walk rate. Against righties, his career figures are .238/.309/.414 with a 17.9% K rate and 8.1% walk rate. Not terrible, but he's also seen about 75% more right handed batters in his career, so his effectiveness against them is pretty central to his success.
In 2012, Wood hardly threw a right handed hitter a slider at all, using it about 5% of the time. He relied heavily on his four seam fastball to get ahead or when he needed a strike. This season, he's throwing almost 50% cut fastballs when behind in the count, when he needs a strike, and he's been much more willing to throw a slider when ahead in the count — nearing 20%. Below are the whiff, ground ball, line drive, and home run rates for his four seam, cutter, and slider from 2012 to 2013 against RHB (click to embiggen):
The takeaway here is that against righties, he's generating more ground balls, fewer line drives and home runs on both the four seam and cut fastball. His slider, however — he's generating almost twice the whiffs and he's yet to give up a line drive or home run. Yeah, he's only used the slider about 15% of the time this season, so it's not the most robust of samples, but that he's using it far more against righties and having success is at least notable. Of the 160 right handed batters Wood has faced, they're hitting a collective 163/.234/.262.
A quick visual from our friends at texasleaguers.com relative to his slider location versus righties, just for good measure:
In general, his location is much more what you'd expect from a lefty slider facing a right handed batter – down and in. In 2012, he left it up and over the plate much more often.
There's one more teensy thing that might explain some of his improved results. Whether it's intentional or not, his release point has changed, and it has changed across all three pitches. Comparing his release point to 2012, his arm angle is just a little closer to his body in 2013.
Looking at video of Wood, he hasn't changed his position on the rubber as far as I can tell (settle down, Beavis), but it might explain some of the subtleties in the arm slot. This release point could be something, it could be nothing, but I figure if I'm going to try and tell the tale of the new and just maybe improved Travis Wood, I ought to be thorough.
So there you have it. Wood is a slightly different pitcher in terms of repertoire and release point, but he doesn't appear to be a patently different pitcher. Whether the tweaks will allow him to outperform his predictors on a Matt Cain kind of level, I don't know, but I kind of doubt it. My expectation is that he'll start to look a lot more like the old Travis Wood as the season wears on, which isn't a bad pitcher, just not a world beater. But there are enough little changes about Wood that leave one eyebrow curiously raised as to whether he can keep up anything resembling his early success. If I'm a fantasy baseball owner, I'd probably try to sell high, but if you get stuck holding the sack, you might actually consider yourself lucky.

Friday, February 21, 2014
Limbs and branches knocked holes into a number of gibbon houses during the ice storm last week.
That was the news coming from the International Primate Protection League sanctuary in Knightsville after the ice storm caused power outages for more than two days.
Generators kept the gibbon houses at the necessary 65 70 F, IPPL Founder and Executive Director Shirley McGreal said.
This smallest species of apes is used to the warm climate of Southeast Asia. The 36 gibbons living at IPPL have been rescued from abusive labs and zoos around the world.
McGreal only used the generators for the gibbon houses and did not heat her own residence at the facility.
McGreal took IPPLs six otters into her home to keep them safe and from escaping into the woods after their fences were knocked down.
The six otters, they were in here, McGreal said. It was cold. There was no heat. It got to about 45 degrees in the office.
None of the human places were heated because the gibbons come first here.
While the animals are always first at IPPL, what seems to be the most miraculous story of the ice storm comes from John McGreal, Shirleys husband.
He was driving the IPPL pickup truck around the facility and got out to move a branch that was in the roadway. Seconds after he exited the truck the top of a pine tree fell and crushed the truck cabin.
McGreal said her husband is lucky to be alive after the incident. She added that IPPL has had that truck for about 10 years.
I dont know if its fixable, she said.
A group of about eight volunteers and a handful of staff members began cleaning up Friday morning. Tree trunks and branches were scattered throughout the facility. Several fences were down.
Power was restored Thursday evening.
Its really a nightmare, McGreal said Friday. It couldve been worse.
The cleanup conditions were dangerous to work in because more limbs could fall at any time, McGreal said.
Our own staff are very good, McGreal said.
Staff members stayed overnight to make sure the generators kept the gibbons warm.
One branch crashed into a gibbon house like a javelin or spear, McGreal said.
As the weather warmed up to about 55 degrees at noon on Friday, the gibbons could go back outside and run through their outdoor aerial mesh runways and cages.
They like the outdoors, McGreal said. They were inside the last two days because of damage to cages and because it was so cold.
The runway from the houses of Palu-Palu and his mate Jade were blocked. Another runway had to be found so they could bypass the damaged one, McGreal said.
It terrifies you at first when you look at the chaos, McGreal said. Well get it together piece by piece.
IPPL is asking for donations to help fix gibbon houses and other damage. Donations can be made at www.ippl.org.

Pasqual's coming to Hilldale
I read Mike Ivey's column in the Cap Times saying that Pasqual's is opening another restarurant in Hilldale. I like Pasqual's but they have had such bad luck in other areas of Madison and Middleton. What gives? This has to be their fifth attempt. Failures: Atwood Ave. and University Ave in Middleton both folded. I wish them luck.

I don't think luck has anything to do with it. I used to like Pasquals about 10 years ago when they used to be good. Mainly got takeout from the Atwood location and went to Middleton when they first opened a few times. I dunno, after being served 5 or more cold burritos in a row you finally get the idea the place is not worth going to, no matter how good they used to be. Quality of their chorizo really seemed to go downhill as well.
I'm also suprised any of their locations are still in business.
Tex Tubbs Taco is going in right down the street from Hilldale. And I think there's at least a Qdoba between them. Enough Mexican already.
Hilldale has potential but some of the more recent additions (L'Occitane, Pasquals, North Face) have been kind of weak. A Patagonia store instead of North Face would have made me happier.

When I first started eating there, to me and my dining companions, it was WOW, I want more, good. And food was served hot all the time. But as time went on locations opened and then they all closed except Monroe it really was disappointing to see. But the whole thing for me was consistantly being served food cold. No excuse. Because it was so good to begin with (one of my faves), I probably judge it with higher standards than I would a Qdoba or Chipotle, which by the way I have never been served a cold burrito.

Monroe St was the only Pasquals starting in the later 80's. The Atwood location was the 2nd, appearing 1992'ish. After Tim Guilfoil sold the chain, things suffered.
Ducatista wrote:No kidding? Shows how east-centric I was back then. Sounds like I lucked into a narrow little window of Atwood Pasqual's goodness.
My last (and I do mean last) experience there... I had been waiting about 45 minutes for a couple burritos to go. I was in no hurry. Readin the paper, drinking a beer. In between other people ordering I asked how my order was coming and the dirty little tattoo girl gives me a hate look and says "you want fast, go to Taco Bell". I said, hmph, fuck you and left. I went to Monty's though. Not Taco Bell. That's when I discovered Monty's breakfast burrito. Yum!
But, damn did I love that location when it first opened up!

Conference Call for Papers
Research for sustainable development
Westminster International University in Tashkent
Thursday 14th May 2009
Research and development (R&D) plays a critical role in ensuring the growth of a modern economy. At the same time for that growth to be sustainable, there is a need for societies to understand better the challenges facing them and develop appropriate evidence based policies. However the role of research in promoting sustainable development, particularly in transition societies, is an area that calls for further enquiry in order for business, higher education, government and international organizations to realize its full benefits.
Westminster International University in Tashkent, as part of the activities of its UNESCO Chair in the Knowledge Economy and Tempus Project "Plan to Establish Research-Science-Enterprise Oriented Universities for the Benefit of Society (PERSEUS)" and with support from the British Council, is hosting this one day conference and invites paper proposals for addressing the following themes.
1) Commercialization of research
• Maximising Research and Development in the company value chain
• Commercializing university based research
• Corporate partnerships
2) Research for effective policy planning, monitoring and evaluation • Overcoming the data gap – strategies for ensuring relevant monitoring and evaluation
• Managing policy related research for maximum value
• Funding models for public sector research
3) Developing research capacity – research training, management and quality assurance in higher education
• Research training in the education system – both postgraduate and undergraduate
• Quality assurance in research
• Funding models of university research
4) Research dissemination – challenges in transition countries
• Changing role and nature of academic journals in developing and transition societies
• Making the most of information technology to communicate research outcomes
• Intellectual property and legal issues relating to research dissemination
Paper proposals can be submitted in any of the conference working languages (English, Russian or Uzbek). To submit a proposal please fill out the form at http://www.wiut.uz/pub/confapply.php. We can cover travel expenses for a limited number of participants from other cities of Uzbekistan and will also be providing seminars on preparing and presenting papers for young researchers.

I like bacon. I know, courageous stance right? Bacon is one of the delights of life on this earth. It's a universal good, a boon; manna.
But like any universal good on this earth, there are those who disapprove. PETA, for example, and for obvious reasons. Luckily, I don't see PETA successfully instituting global bacon sharia anytime soon. On the other hand, they may not have to. Just as there are universally good things in this world, there are universally stupid things. I call them progressives.
And guess what they're coming for next? Your kids.
Have you read Jonah Goldberg's Liberal Fascism? If not ... why are you so communist? The smiley face with the Hitler mustache on the front cover is a reference to material in the book. The idea being that where fascism intersects with American life, it does so under the guise of do-goodery. It's nice. Smiley-face fascism. (Not be confused with the smiley on the cover of Kos' new book, which is a reference to nu-uh-ery.) So maybe we call the war on food "smiley-face eugenics". Too far? Well let's see.
So-called progressives, or liberals as they're known in the wild, want to help you, you see. You being the poor, dumb, fat, probably racist, Ugly American™ that you are. It takes a village to fix what ails you, and why? Because you don't know best. They know best.
Wear your seat belt! Put on that helmet! Don't drink that, drink this. Don't smoke! You'll poke your eye with that thing! That is not appropriate behavior for two consentin ... ha ha, just kidding. Bedroom is off-limits. But you know what's not off-limits to the nannies? Happy Meals. Yep. That ancient cardboard (save the whales!) scourge has finally met its match in the form of city councils and "concerned" citizens groups. At issue? The toys.
Yes, kids. Democrats want to take away your toys. Hey, you don't vote. So suck it.
As reported in the Christian Science Monitor, San Francisco is considering doing away with the Happy Meal. San Fran, or Moscow as its known in the wild, wants to help you, you see. To not be fat. In fact that may be their new city motto: Don't Be Fat. Not quite as catchy as "Gold in Peace, Iron in War" but ... war is bad? Mmmkay?
This wouldn't be the first such action in California. Santa Clara, California recently banned restaurants in unincorporated areas from offering toys with meals that have some amount of calories they arbitrarily assessed as EEVVIIILLLLLL. I guess if you're in an incorporated area you're less prone to being lured. Did I mention the luring?
Yes, if you read the news reports the word comes up quite a bit. McDonald's is "luring" children to unhealthiness with the siren song of Shrek watches and grease. A potent lure indeed (I caught a ten pound bass with the very thing). The source of the creepy imagery of a trench coat-bedecked Ronald McDonald enticing innocent children into his unmarked van, there to ply them with McNuggets and bendy straws seems to be this statement put out by citizen "watchdog" group the Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI) back in July, as reported by MichelleMalkin.com at the time. Relevant quotable:
"... using toys to lure small children into McDonald's is unfair and deceptive marketing and is illegal under various state consumer protection laws."
Lure. Nice. Now, perhaps you think I'm reading too much into that. Surely they don't mean to compare McDonald's to Chester the Molester with that word. Right? From the same statement:
"McDonald's is the stranger in the playground handing out candy to children," said CSPI litigation director Stephen Gardner. "McDonald's use of toys undercuts parental authority and exploits young children's developmental immaturity—all this to induce children to prefer foods that may harm their health. It's a creepy and predatory practice that warrants an injunction."
Got that? Creepy. Predatory. Stranger in the playground.
Artist's rendering. If you see this man, seek shelter and celery. LOCALLY GROWN celery.
Also instructive is the assertion that McD's is undermining parental authority. Note the subtle abdication of that very authority, and all personal responsibility, just by that remark. Kids are fat because toys lure them, and parents are powerless. Since you, you weak fat Americans, are too weak and fat to decide what to feed your kids, we will do it for you. Since you can't say no on a case by case basis, we'll just take away the option.
Taking away options, in the end, is what progressives are the very best at. Because some children are obese, and because some parents give them too many McNugget meals, well we'll just take away the option. Problem solved! ... Or is it?
Toys as a prize are certainly a value-add to any meal. Even steak. (Trust me.) But which parent among you thinks your kids would stop wanting chicken nuggets just because the latest "Eat Pray Love." bauble isn't included? Anyone? And when those toys are gone, are the "never say no" parents suddenly going to be empowered, the spell of plastic toys in plastic bags finally broken and their will to govern the health of their children finally set free?
They want your salt. They want your bacon. They want your toys. And soon enough, they will want the nuggets, too. McDonald's CEO Skinner fired back at CSPI in July. And yet here we are again, potentially facing a fresh ban in San Francisco. Where next?
Where will this societal engineering end? There's no obvious final line to cross in this way of thinking. Which bendy straw will break the camel's back? How far, ultimately, is too far for legislating healthiness? Why not get rid of Ronald? Kids like clowns right? Well .. some do. What about breakfast cereal? How long until Frankenberry sits in chains? Until the Trix rabbit is put to sleep? Are these not enticing to children?
Come to think of it .. what about bright colors? Contests? Giveaways? Scrap all that too. Hell, even the name. HAPPY Meal? So you're telling kids they might be happy? OUTRAGE!!
Here's a preview of the Happy Meal to come:
Michelle Obama has declared a war on fat. Because fat kids, you see, are a threat to national security. New York continues the assault on salt, as does the FDA. The race to "perfect" is underway. Because the fatcat ... err, thincats in Washington and in your city offices, well they just know better than you. It may take a village to raise a child, but it takes an army of bureaucrats to raise a THIN child. So say the progressives.
What say you? Me? I say, those would sacrifice liberty to wear a size three deserve neither and will lose um ... growth.
But now I've gotta run. I'm having bacon for dinner. And maybe a side of BUTT THE HELL OUT OF MY LIFE.

We're a group of ordinary men and women, from all over the world, who've banded together in an effort to collect information... to save our very lives and the lives of those we care about. After participating in 23andMe, a personal genomics service, we learned that we carry the APOE-ε4 allele, putting us at high risk for Alzheimer's -a deadly, incurable, neurodegenerative disease- as well as other forms of dementia, and even heart disease and other maladies.
As if that wasn't frightening enough, imagine our distress upon learning that the medical community has arrived at NO consensus on prevention strategies for people with our genetic predisposition. The current advice from experts for E4 carriers is wildly contradictory. We soon learned that we are genetic pioneers, modern day canaries in the coal mine, searching for and testing out strategies. 23andMe provided forums for us to talk with one another, and thus began page after page of contributions from all corners of the globe. We avidly began sharing and examining research, speaking to experts, comparing advice and strategies, challenging long-held notions, conducting n=1 experiments, tracking and sharing biomarkers, and more- all in an effort to find a prevention strategy for E4 carriers. After spending over a year amassing hundreds of pages of information, we realized we were sitting upon a treasure trove that had never been collected in one place. In an effort to catalogue and organize our work, http://www.apoe4.info was born.
We've taken our collaborative endeavor one step further by creating a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt public charity, ApoE4.Info, Inc. We now have the infrastructure in place to push for more answers, research, and treatment strategies for our population.
ApoE4.info, Inc. is dedicated to understanding the APOE-ε4 gene and how it impacts health. We do this by:

Skip to comments.Report: Pedophilia more common among 'gays'
Posted on 04/28/2002 11:05:35 PM PDT by scripter
Child molestation and pedophilia occur far more commonly among homosexuals than among heterosexuals on a per capita basis, according to a new study.
"Overwhelming evidence supports the belief that homosexuality is a sexual deviancy often accompanied by disorders that have dire consequences for our culture," wrote Steve Baldwin in, "Child Molestation and the Homosexual Movement," soon to be published by the Regent University Law Review after Stanford Law Review backed out.
Baldwin is the executive director of the Council for National Policy in Washington, D.C.
"It is difficult to convey the dark side of the homosexual culture without appearing harsh," wrote Baldwin. "However, it is time to acknowledge that homosexual behavior threatens the foundation of Western civilization the nuclear family."
Though the homosexual community and much of the media scoff at such accusations, Baldwin who chaired the California Assembly's Education committee, where he fought against support for the homosexual agenda in the state's public schools says in his report that homosexual activists' "efforts to target children both for their own sexual pleasure and to enlarge the homosexual movement" constitute an "unmistakable" attack on "the family unit."
Baldwin's research is substantiated in a recently completed body of work written by Dr. Judith Reisman, president of the Institute for Media Education, former member of the Meese pornography commission and author of numerous authoritative books debunking sexual myths, including "Kinsey, Crimes & Consequences."
In her thesis also written for the Regent University Law Review Reisman cited psychologist Eugene Abel, whose research found that homosexuals "sexually molest young boys with an incidence that is occurring from five times greater than the molestation of girls. "
Abel also found that non-incarcerated "child molesters admitted from 23.4 to 281.7 acts per offender whose targets were males."
"The rate of homosexual versus heterosexual child sexual abuse is staggering," Reisman wrote. She said "Abels data of 150.2 boys abused per male homosexual offender finds no equal (yet) in heterosexual violations of 19.8 girls."
Jay Heavener, spokesman for PFLAG Parents, Families and Friends of Lesbians and Gays, counters that federal crime data refute claims that homosexuals molest children at higher rates than heterosexuals.
"According to data from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), this claim is false," he told WND by e-mail. "The gay and lesbian community calls into question any dubious research which flies in the face of our own experience."
And Gary Schoener, a clinical psychologist who has been diagnosing and treating clergy abuse for 28 years, told Salon.com, "There are far more heterosexual cases than homosexual."
In terms of sheer numbers, that may be true. But in terms of numbers of children abused per offender, homosexuals abuse with far greater frequency; and boys, research shows, are the much-preferred target.
Baldwin says evidence he examined disproves the assertion that child molestation is more prevalent among heterosexuals. Both he and Reisman found that media coverage of adult homosexual abuse of minors is also slanted.
"The National Lesbian and Gay Journalists Association (NLGJA) recently boasted that although homosexuals are less than two percent of the population, three-fourths of the people who decide the content of the front page of the New York Times are homosexual," Reisman wrote.
That one fact is especially noteworthy, experts point out, given the recent child sex scandals taking place within the American Catholic church.
A survey by WorldNetDaily of recent news reports found that rarely did the media describe priestly sexual abuse as "homosexual" or "gay" activity even though the worst incidents involved male-to-male contact, and a spate of investigative reports have revealed that the Vatican is concerned about an upsurge of homosexuals in seminary schools throughout the world.
Gay press promotes sex with children
Baldwin says his research not only "confirms that homosexuals molest children at a rate vastly higher than heterosexuals," but it found that "the mainstream homosexual culture" even "commonly promotes sex with children."
"The editorial board of the leading pedophile academic journal, Paidika, is dominated by prominent homosexual scholars such as San Francisco State University professor John DeCecco, who happens to edit the Journal of Homosexuality," Baldwin wrote.
During his research, he also found:
The Journal of Homosexuality recently published a special double-issue entitled, "Male Intergenerational Intimacy," containing many articles portraying sex between men and minor boys as loving relationships. One article said parents should look upon the pedophile who loves their son "not as a rival or competitor, not as a theft of their property, but as a partner in the boy's upbringing, someone to be welcomed into their home."
In 1995 the homosexual magazine "Guide" said, "We can be proud that the gay movement has been home to the few voices who have had the courage to say out loud that children are naturally sexual" and "deserve the right to sexual expression with whoever they choose. " The article went onto say: "Instead of fearing being labeled pedophiles, we must proudly proclaim that sex is good, including children's sexuality we must do it for the children's sake."
Larry Kramer, the founder of ACT-UP, a noted homosexual activist group, wrote in his book, "Report from the Holocaust: The Making of an AIDS Activist": "In those instances where children do have sex with their homosexual elders, be they teachers or anyone else, I submit that often, very often, the child desires the activity, and perhaps even solicits it."
In a study of advertisements in the influential homosexual newspaper, The Advocate, Reisman found ads for a "Penetrable Boy Doll available in three provocative positions. She also found that the number of erotic boy images in each issue of The Advocate averaged 14.
Homosexual newspapers and travel publications advertise prominently for countries where boy prostitution is heavy, such as Burma, the Philippines, Sri Lanka and Thailand.
Homosexuality 'youth-oriented'?
"Research on the homosexual lifestyle confirms it is almost exclusively a youth-oriented culture," Baldwin wrote. "Very few gays exhibit preference for older men."
"Some admit to focus on teenage boys," he said, "some on prepubescent boys, and many cross over between categories."
A 1988 study detailed in Baldwin's report found that most pedophiles even consider themselves to be "gay." According to the study, "Archives of Sexual Behavior," some 86 percent of pedophiles described themselves as homosexual or bisexual. Also, the study found, the number of teenage male prostitutes who identify as homosexuals has risen from 10 percent to 60 percent in the past 15 years.
When asked what he thought about critics who attempt to debunk his research, Baldwin said the results speak for themselves.
"For them to say this theory is false is to call many of the homosexual movement's leaders liars," he said. "Most of my evidence comes right from the gay community."
"I managed to find enough evidence that my thesis child molestation is an integral part of the homosexual movement is a valid thesis," Baldwin told WorldNetDaily.
Other experts have also found a distinct pattern between child sex abusers and the incidence of homosexuality.
"How long can psychologists be in denial about the significance of the dark side, and ignore what it implies about the homosexual condition? And there's a matter of even greater concern. How long will psychologists eagerly throw open the door to gay life for every sexually confused teenager?" writes Joseph Nicolosi, Ph.D, on behalf of NARTH the National Association for Research and Therapy of Homosexuality a group that says it exists to "provide psychological understanding of the cause, treatment and behavior patterns associated with homosexuality, within the boundaries of a civil public dialogue."
The North American Man-Boy Love Association, or NAMBLA, is "a group that openly promotes sex with minor boys and claims that boy-lovers respond to the needs of the boys they love," Baldwin said in his report.
The group is often endorsed by "many of the homosexual movement's most prominent leaders," he said.
Advocacy moving to schools
Promotion of the "gay and lesbian lifestyle" is increasing in the nation's public schools.
A WND survey of homosexual-oriented websites found that almost every group has some sort of program to "educate" teachers, school administrators and other school employees about the homosexual lifestyle:
GLSEN the Gay Lesbian and Straight Education Network bills itself as "the largest national network of parents, students, educators and others" specifically formed to end "discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity/expression in K-12 schools. Two recent press released boasted of the Broward County (Fla.) school board approving GLSEN-sponsored "training for teachers."
A student activist working with GLSEN officials has managed to "give voice" recently to "gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgendered students" at California schools;
PFLAG has created a national campaign called, "From Our House to the Schoolhouse," distributing to school officials among other materials a booklet entitled, "Just the Facts About Sexual Orientation and Youth: A Primer For Principals, Educators, & School Personnel. [Editor's note: Readers need the Adobe PDF reader to open and read this file.] Though most school-related programs are sold to administrators and parents as programs designed simply to end persecution of homosexuals and lesbians, none disclose what Baldwin says is compelling evidence that homosexuality is harmful to children.
"What does the academic literature say about the relationship between homosexuality and child molestation? Quite a bit, actually," he wrote, quoting data compiled by the Family Research Institute: "Scientific studies confirm a strong pedophilic predisposition among homosexuals."
The institute, after reviewing more than 19 studies and peer-reviewed reports in a 1985 "Psychological Reports" article, found that homosexuals account for between 25 and 40 percent of all child molestation.
"But this number is low," Baldwin says, "due to the fact that many reporters will not report if a child molester is a homosexual, even if he knows that to be the case."
The younger the homo chickenhawks are able to get at children, the more likely they are to skew their sexual orientation permanently.
How can a 13 year old deal with that, and develop a healthy heterosexual sexual identity? Even if he does not "go gay" for at least a while, he will be screwed up six ways from Sunday.
Castration for chickenhawks would be a good start. Kneecapping and blinding might be appropriate also.
Another worst-kept secret ever exposed.
(Please , I speak figuratively: there are more humaine ways to kill predators than beheading.)
That, along with the erronious notion that many would be more content expressing the "full breadth" of their sexuality, will surely lead to more misery associated with the crime.
No sanction: no quarter.
Man has sex with girl or woman has sex with boy: pedophilia.
Man has sex with boy or woman has sex with girl: homosexual pedophilia.
Any questions?
There are more sick b@stards out there than we know. And people wonder why the Boy Scouts fight to keep them out.

Thomas Sowell, writing about injustices done in the name of affirmative action, commented on the tendency to create statistical categories that would reinforce the thesis of the person or organization gathering the statistics. For instance, he noted that, among scholars and activists who speak on "racism," their disaggregation of minority groups always halts at the point that makes the figures they cite look most alarming. This prevents anyone from marshaling a case against them with their own data; for example, by showing that Asian-Americans suffer neither socially nor economically in America, weakening the case for a pervasive white "racism."
When law enforcement composes its statistics, are the separable behaviors of child molestation -- heterosexual and homosexual molestations -- tracked separately, or are all the incidents thrown into one big bin, to prevent a disaggregation that would look bad for homosexuals? When the statisticians say "pederasty," do they mean it in its exact dictionary meaning -- a man sodomizing a young boy? Or do they combine those offenses with other adult-child sexual relations, muddying the waters?
Are objective techniques used to classify offenders' orientations, or do the statistics rely on self-characterizations? Are hard counting techniques used to amass total offenses, total offenses per capita for each category, and the number and frequency of repeat offenders?
In the current prickly, litigious atmosphere, answers to such questions might be hard to come by. Further questions would then arise. Is evasion due to an aversion to controversy, or are the data-keepers trying to advance an agenda, or protect someone?
Information dispels fear, by making it possible to plan one's affairs to avoid danger and unpleasantness. But for information to serve the fear-dispelling function, it must be accurate and trustworthy. Our time is not one that can tolerate protracted uncertainty -- and in this matter of our imperiled children, we should not indulge the evaders or the delayers for one second longer.

"Unlike other Catholic priests convicted of sexual abuse, John J. Geoghan, Boston's defrocked priest linked to 136 molestations, targeted both pre-pubescent and sexually mature teen-age boys.
"He knew no bounds. His victims ranged in age from 6 to 15," said Boston lawyer Mitchell Garabedian, attorney for many of Geoghan's victims..."
"... Within days, the police investigation blossomed into what prosecutors say is the state's largest ever child-molestation case. Reardon, 29, has pleaded innocent to 130 charges including rape, molestation and disseminating pornography involving 29 boys."
Two homosexuals -- 165 boys sexually abused.
Unfortunately, between the influential homosexuals in the media working to supress the truth on this issue and their liberal friends who are eager to help them, this kind of information will probably never see the light of the mainstream media. CNP is an excellent and seriously conservative organization that is mostly unknown to most (by choice, I believe) and anything they publish will be dismissed as right-wing propaganda by those in the media. This report serves mostly as ammunition for those of us who are attempting to open the eyes of the apolitical public to the true agenda of the homosexual 'movement' and it's dangers to the family and American society.
You raised an important point when you stated: Information dispels fear, by making it possible to plan one's affairs to avoid danger and unpleasantness. But for information to serve the fear-dispelling function, it must be accurate and trustworthy. Our time is not one that can tolerate protracted uncertainty -- and in this matter of our imperiled children, we should not indulge the evaders or the delayers for one second longer.
Yes, information does dispel fear and the problem is that too many police, hospital and other information gathering organizations do as you indicated and muddy the water on statistics that might give the public a true picture of the incidences of homosexual attacks on children and the true nature of homosexual attraction to young boys. The homosexual lobby has done it's work well. Public officials are now afraid to point out the truth and instead, shade the figures and allow the homosexual activists to constantly proclaim that, by sheer number of incidences, alone, hetrosexual pedophilia is far more common than homosexual pederasty and so, the public is, at best, confused if not entirely misguided into believing homosexuality is a mostly benign behavior, limited to consenting adults, in private with little to no danger to America's children.
That the truth is much different is something that will be difficult to prove and so, thwart the homosexual agenda as it marches into the classrooms of America. The cry of 'discrimination' and especially the old standby; 'hate' will be shouted by the homosexual activists and heard across the land whenever anyone or any group dares to state the obvious regarding homosexuality and pederasty. To expect the liberal media to tell the truth about those who they either see as victims of oppression fighting for 'freedom' (or are members of the homosexual 'community', themselves) is naive.
In a strange way, the current homosexual sex scandal in the Catholic Church has had the effect of at least bringing some light on the subject of homosexual attraction to children, despite the attempts to shade the issue by the media in refusing to mention the gender of the children filing claims of molestation (almost all male) against priests. This is a good time to attempt to bring more light on this sordid fact of homosexual behavior - pederasty - and alert the apolitical public of the danger in allowing the homosexual agenda to continue to be implemented in our schools as well as our churches and the community at large.
We should plaster this quote on every bit of pro-homo literature that we can lay our hands upon.
Travis McGee, you are CORRECT! Just think, if this crap was genetic - it would have died out thousands of years ago - you can't pass genes if you don't reproduce those genes!
This is a deviant, perverted learned sexual behavior! Period!
Do a survey on how many women like circumcised versus uncircumcised - Uncircumcised is all natural, yet most women will opt for the cultural norm - taught sexual preference!
Another example of learned behavior vs. "I was born this way" - Most men are hard-wired to lust after women, but parade their naked sister in front of them....Yuck! A taught thing!
It's all a matter of what the rules are and who makes them up
Think about it. We do have rules on sex for many reasons - health, keep people from killing each other, etc.
The majority of us "Normal" people need to stop letting the minority of perverts make the rules! and keep the rules that have worked. I am no homophobe, I just call evil what it is - EVIL!
They have a batallion of sappers working overtime to undermine the Republican Party, too. Even FR is host to a few platoons of gay-agenda shock troops. They haven't shown up yet on this thread, but they will.
Other "discoveries":
"Pedophilia is, as the San Francisco Sentinel pointed out in an editorial, 'the foundation of homosexuality.'"
For a description of GLSEN endorsed activities see:
Reply #22 in the thread Assemblyman MOUNTJOY opposes promotion of homosexuality in public schools
No? Really?
Bump for the faggots and queers!</sarcasm>
Man has sex with boy or woman has sex with girl: homosexual pedophilia.
Seems simple enough. However, there's always someone trying to test the boundaries:

text: Always remember that muscle is heavier than fat. I think the best way to measure your progress is by taking weekly pictures or measurements don't worry about the number on the scale. Also if you are feeling good and still making gains in the gym It sounds like you are doing well. The only way to start burning muscle would be to not eat enough protein so make sure you are getting enough and it should not be an issue. Congrats on your progress so far and keep it up!

Tragedy, Triumph and Scandal: Top Parenting Stories of 2012Monica Bielanko
In between reading about how French parents do it so much better or how we aren't mom enough if we aren't breastfeeding our toddlers, it's been a difficult year for moms and dads.
From the nanny killings in New York City to the Sandy Hook shootings we're all still reeling from, 2012 seems, at least to me, to have been a year filled with stories of parental suffering.
But there have been some bright spots: Target gets a big thumbs up from millions of parents and some much anticipated pregnancies and births have been announced.
Here are the top parenting stories of 2012. Do you agree? Which stories do you feel deserve to be on the list that you don't see here?

In 1997, Maurice Lynch and Munh-Orgil Tsend (Harvard Law School LLM 1996) founded the law firm of Munh-Orgil, Idesh & Lynch in Ulaanbaatar as a Mongolian limited liability company. In 2004, the firm established an office in Washington DC to facilitate Mongolia-related transactions involving companies in North America and to provide direct access to international organizations and government agencies located in the DC area.
In 2000, Munh-Orgil withdrew from the firm to pursue a career in government service and as member of the Mongolian Parliament. Daniel Mahoney became a partner in that year and the firm continued under the name Lynch & Mahoney. In January of 2012, Lynch & Mahoney was dissolved. Maurice Lynch has continued his Mongolian practice in Washington DC under the name Maurice Lynch & Associates PLLC.
Lynch & Associates advises and assists companies doing business in Mongolia, including advice in respect of Mongolian laws and regulations that may affect such activities, compliance with these laws and regulations, and advice and assistance in dealing with the ministries and agencies of the government of Mongolia (as well as local authorities) that are responsible for implementing such laws and regulations. Mr Lynch has extensive experience globally in advising and assisting companies in structuring and financing mining ventures. The firm also advises and assists clients in establishing Mongolian business entities and in acquiring interests in Mongolian companies.
Mr. Lynch received his Bachelor of Arts (AB) degree, with honors, from Harvard University and his Juris Doctor (JD) degree from the Harvard University Law School. He has more than 30 years experience as a corporate transactional lawyer, including advising and assisting international mining companies in structuring exploration and development and joint venture agreements as well as the funding of such activities through the public and private financial markets, and in arranging for the listing of publicly traded securities on major stock exchanges such as the New York Stock Exchange and the Nasdaq Stock Market.
Mr. Lynch was formerly a partner in the New York City law firm of Dunnington, Bartholow & Miller and Of Counsel in the Washington DC office of Davis, Graham & Stubbs. He is a member of the bars of New York State, the District of Columbia, and an associate member of the Commonwealth of Virginia bar. He is also a member of the International Law, Business Law and Natural Resources Law Sections of the American Bar Association, and the Rocky Mountain Mineral Law Foundation.
In 2000, Mr. Lynch founded the American Mongolian Business Group (AMBG), a non-governmental organization based in Ulaanbaatar that provided a forum for foreign companies and NGOs operating in Mongolia and worked closely with the US Embassy and other organizations to monitor developments that affect such companies and NGOs. The AMBG later evolved into what is now called the Business Council of Mongolia.
