Posted on 03/28/2005 11:20:36 AM PST by fight_truth_decay
Over the course of the past week, the Terri Schiavo case made headlines with its swift and unsuccessful journey through the federal courts. The string of court defeats might have left the impression that the case was doomed from the outset. Yet the litigation's failure may owe more to a poor tactical choice by the lawyers advising the Schindlers--Terri's parents--than to the case's underlying merits.
The original Schindler complaint included a variety of federal constitutional and statutory claims. Each of them was weak at best, as was quickly reflected in federal district judge James Whittemore's ruling that the Schindlers had failed to establish a likelihood of success on the merits of any of them.
Moreover, the claims set forth in the Schindlers' original complaint failed to take advantage of the procedural opportunities that Congress presented them in the special bill it passed on their behalf, now commonly known as Terri's Law. Each of the claims in the original complaint permitted the district court to decide the merits without receiving new evidence. Thus, Judge Whittemore refused to issue an order restoring the feeding tube pending the outcome of a trial he thought unnecessary. And neither the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals nor the U.S. Supreme Court was willing to intervene.
After their first unsuccessful trip all the way up the federal judicial ladder ended on March 24, the Schindlers returned to the federal district court the next day. The amended complaint they then filed contained one potentially meritorious claim, but by that time the courts had probably concluded that there was nothing to their case. Accordingly, Judge Whittemore and the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals made short work of their five new claims.
Had the Schindlers put their best foot forward in the initial complaint and motion for a preliminary injunction, they might well have fared better.
What was the potentially successful claim that appears to have been tacked onto the end of the amended complaint as a mere afterthought? It asserted, fittingly enough, that disconnecting Terri Schiavo from her feeding tube violated a constitutional right to life protected by the Fourteenth Amendment. That claim was stronger than the others and should have positioned the Schindlers to make good use of Terri's Law. It had the added virtue of encapsulating what the case was really about, at least from their perspective. But presented as it was at the eleventh hour, the right-to-life claim came across as too little, too late.
The Schindlers' Original Claims
To see how the Schindlers might have won, it is first worth examining why they lost--by looking at the weaknesses of each of the claims in their original complaint.
First, the Schindlers contended that the state court trial judge who had ordered the removal of Terri's feeding tube had denied her federal constitutional right to an impartial decision maker. Rather than acting as a judge, they argued, Florida Circuit Judge George Greer had become her health-care surrogate.
But Florida law expressly authorizes a trial judge to ascertain, based on all available evidence, what a patient's wishes are, where there is no written advance directive and the family members disagree. Judge Greer was simply acting as a judge, looking at evidence to decide a factual matter: what Terri would have wanted.
Second, the Schindlers claimed that Judge Greer violated constitutional due process by failing to appoint a guardian ad litem or a lawyer for Terri. But due process simply requires representation--and Terri had that in abundance. Michael Schiavo's lawyers made the arguments tending to show that she was in a persistent vegetative state and would want the feeding tube out, while the Schindlers' lawyers made the arguments tending to show that she had some cognitive function and would want the feeding tube to remain in. That is exactly how the adversary system is supposed to work, and additional lawyers would not have raised additional points.
Third, the Schindlers claimed that Judge Greer violated due process in that he never personally visited Terri. But there is no federal constitutional right to have a judge make a fact-finding field trip: Courts routinely hear evidence in their courtrooms. Here, the court took testimony from five physicians who had personally examined Terri.
Fourth, the Schindlers alleged that Florida law violates the Fourteenth Amendment's Equal Protection Clause by discriminating against incapacitated persons such as their daughter. How so? In general, Florida law permits judges to serve as proxy decision makers for their own family members but not for others; yet Florida permits judges to play this role (in certain circumstances) when a party before the court is incapacitated.
Under the relevant Supreme Court precedents, including the 2001 decision in Board of Trustees of the University of Alabama v. Garrett, distinctions on the basis of physical or mental disability are only subject to the most minimal judicial scrutiny; if they are barely "rational," that is enough. And of course it's rational to distinguish for this limited purpose between people who are too incapacitated to express their wishes and people who are not.
Fifth, the Schindlers argued that Terri's First Amendment right to the free exercise of religion had been infringed. But under the 1990 Supreme Court precedent of Employment Division v. Smith, the government does not infringe on the constitutional right to free exercise of religion when it applies a general law to someone whose religion would otherwise require a different outcome. And here, the Florida law for determining when a feeding tube may be removed was generally applicable.
Sixth, the Schindlers invoked the Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons Act (RLUIPA), which mandates a more generous standard for judging free exercise claims by persons whom the government has confined to an institution. For them, a condition is legally impermissible if it imposes a "substantial burden" on religious exercise, even if the burden arises out of a general law or policy--unless the burden serves a compelling interest.
Judge Whittemore thought this claim had little likelihood of success because the statute's language only applies to conditions imposed by "government." As I discuss below in connection with the "right to life" claim, that reasoning is questionable. Nonetheless, Judge Whittemore appears to have been correct in his bottom line conclusion that the RLUIPA claim had little likelihood of success on the merits. In addition to requiring government action, RLUIPA requires that the person on whose behalf the claim is being asserted be in a state-run institution, and The Hospice of the Florida Suncoast, Inc., where Terri is institutionalized, probably does not count.
The Core Weakness in All of the Schindlers' Original Claims
Terri's Law gave the Schindlers a remarkable--and in some ways, unprecedented--opportunity. Congress empowered them to litigate anew any issues relating to their daughter's condition. Violations of Terri's rights were to be determined without regard to any prior rulings by the state courts: de novo in lawyer's jargon.
Yet for the most part, the Schindlers and their lawyers squandered their opportunity by initially presenting claims that alleged that the state courts themselves had denied Terri her procedural rights. The only way for the federal courts to evaluate those claims was to look at what happened in state court--that is, to evaluate rather than ignore what occurred in state court. Not surprisingly, the federal courts were reluctant to say that anything that happened in state court was so irregular as to constitute a denial of due process.
To be sure, the religious freedom claims were capable of fresh evaluation but they had a different problem: They were subject to dismissal as legally insufficient without the necessity of a factual determination.
In sum, what the Schindlers needed--but what they failed to include in their original complaint--was some plausible allegation that would have required the district court to take evidence anew on two critical questions: (1) Was their daughter in a persistent vegetative state? (2) What would her wishes be, given her condition?
The Right-to-Life Claim That Came Too Late
Only after they lost in the district court, before the three-judge panel of the Eleventh Circuit, before the en banc Eleventh Circuit court, and in the U.S. Supreme Court, did the Schindlers' lawyers discover the claim on which they should have staked their case in the first place. They asserted, finally, that their daughter has a federal constitutional right not to have her life extinguished by the state-ordered withdrawal of her feeding tube, absent evidence that she would have wished that result. Even then, they only included this potential winner after asserting four more fairly weak claims.
What is the basis for a federal constitutional right to life? Although there is no direct judicial authority for such a right, there is good indirect authority. In particular, the 1990 Supreme Court case of Cruzan v. Missouri Dep't of Health clearly stated that a person has a right not to be involuntarily connected to a feeding tube, and that the state must respect that right in the case of an incapacitated person by abiding by his or her previously expressed wishes. The Cruzan case permitted states to require clear and convincing evidence of a desire to be disconnected, but where such evidence was present, the Court made clear, the patient's wishes are paramount.
It stands to reason that if there is a right to have a feeding tube disconnected, there is also a right not to have such a tube disconnected--at least where the evidence shows that a patient would wish to remain connected. After all, most constitutional rights include their opposites: The right to speak includes a right not to speak; the right to have an abortion includes a right not to have an abortion; and so on.
To be sure, constitutional rights are also generally rights against state interference rather than rights to government assistance. Cruzan was rooted in the common law right to refuse medical treatment, and there is no corresponding right to receive medical treatment from the government.
But that distinction should have counted for little here, because the Schindlers were not asking for any affirmative assistance from the state. They were willing to provide care for their daughter. They just didn't want the state to prohibit them from doing so. In that sense, their constitutional right-to-life claim, like the claim in Cruzan, was also a claim against state interference.
Accordingly, Judge Whittemore appears to have been mistaken in his second ruling. He found that the right-to-life claim failed to allege "state action," a requirement that a plaintiff show that it is the government, not just a private party, that is the cause of injury. The Eleventh Circuit affirmed that result based on the same argument.
Yet, both Judge Whittemore and the Eleventh Circuit failed to come to grips with the fact that Judge Greer issued an order instructing Michael Schiavo to remove Terri's feeding tube, even specifying the exact date and time when he should do so. The state court did not merely stand idly by while permitting Michael to take such action; the court affirmatively mandated the disconnection. That ought to have counted as state action by a state actor--Judge Greer--who was a named defendant in the federal court lawsuit.
The Significance of Terri's Law
Had the Schindlers gotten over the state action hurdle, they would have had to contend with the response that the state had good reason to order Terri's feeding tube removed--namely the evidence that this is what she would have wanted. Yet the federal court could not have reached that conclusion without conducting a new trial of its own. Terri's Law requires de novo determination of such matters.
The federal court, then, could have directed that the feeding tube be reinserted so that this new trial could take place. (Remember, under Terri's law, prior state court determinations could not be cited to show that the Schindlers were unlikely to succeed at trial. So the "likelihood of success on the merits" component of the preliminary injunction showing necessary to reinsert the tube would have been easier for the Schindlers to satisfy.)
The Constitutionality of the Federal Statute
There remains the question of whether the federal statute is constitutional. The answer is not entirely clear.
The most obviously objectionable aspect of Terri's Law is that it establishes a rule of law for just one person--Terri Schiavo. Although that makes it a bizarre and, in my view, unjustifiable, exercise of Congressional power, this is not a constitutional flaw. There is a long history of so-called "private bills." As long as such bills do not impose criminal penalties, they do not run afoul of the Constitution.
What about the fact that Terri's Law requires the federal courts to disregard prior determinations by state courts? That too is objectionable on policy grounds but probably not on constitutional grounds. In habeas corpus cases, for many years, the federal district courts engaged in de novo review of federal legal questions that had previously been determined by state courts. The Supreme Court and Congress subsequently cut back on the scope of habeas review, but there is no reason to believe they were constitutionally required to do so.
Granted, Terri's Law goes farther than the old interpretation of the habeas statute in authorizing federal courts to give de novo reconsideration to questions of fact rather than just to questions of law, and in seeming to authorize even de novo reconsideration of questions of state law. (For reasons unknown, the Schindlers did not raise any claims under state law, even though there would have been jurisdiction to raise such claims once they were in federal court with federal claims.)
But while Terri's Law may be criticized as unwise, de novo review is probably constitutionally valid. Congress will sometimes have good reason to want to make a federal forum available for de novo litigation of suspect state court factual findings. For example, during Reconstruction and subsequent periods of racial conflict, Congress could have thought that state courts would not give African-American litigants a fair hearing.
I would argue that Congress would have had the power to authorize de novo federal court proceedings in those circumstances--to replace racist state court fact determinations with fairer federal court ones. If so, then the question whether the Schiavo case presents comparable circumstances is simply a policy question, not a constitutional one.
Perhaps Terri's Law ran afoul of the constitutional doctrine forbidding Congress from changing the outcome in a litigated case in which there has been a final judgment. Yet it didn't quite do that either; Terri's Law afforded a new forum, but it did not require a particular substantive outcome. (We know, of course, that Congress was hoping that the federal courts would rule for the Schindlers. But the very fact that they did not, shows that the law did not mandate any particular outcome.)
Finally, Terri's Law could be seen as a violation of Cruzan itself. That case clearly states that when there is clear and convincing evidence that a patient wishes to have a feeding tube disconnected, the government cannot insist that the tube remain in place. Yet in some sense, that is exactly what Terri's Law attempted to do. It authorized federal courts to hold extensive proceedings--and to prolong Terri's attachment to the feeding tube during those proceedings--even after her constitutional right to be disconnected had been established by clear and convincing evidence in the Florida courts.
Whether that or another constitutional attack on Terri's Law would have succeeded will likely remain forever unknown, for as this column goes to press in the early hours of March 26, 2005, the Schindlers appear to have run out of options in the federal courts. They may yet obtain relief in the state courts or elsewhere, but the federal courts that once seemed their best hope have turned a deaf ear to their claims.
The Lingering Mystery: Why Did the Schindlers Wait to Raise their Best Claim?
Even if the Schindlers had brought their right-to-life claim at the outset, they might well have lost. Judge Whittemore and the Eleventh Circuit could have issued exactly the same legal rulings that they actually did, and even if the Schindlers managed to win on the law, at the end of the day, the federal courts might well have agreed with the state courts on the facts.
Yet given the weaknesses in the claims the Schindlers did bring in their original complaint, one is left to wonder why they didn't assert the one claim that had a better chance of success. One possibility is simply the rush of events. The Schindlers' legal team were undoubtedly drafting their complaint even as the legislation in Congress was changing by the minute.
Haste may indeed explain the Schindlers' initial failure to raise the right-to-life claim, but there is another intriguing, though highly speculative, possible explanation: Perhaps their lawyers were blinded by ideology. A federal "right to life" based on Cruzan falls within the general doctrine of "substantive due process," under which the Supreme Court has invalidated state laws prohibiting contraception, abortion, and sodomy. That doctrine is anathema to religious conservatives, who scorn it as judicial activism run amok. It is the doctrine that underwrote Roe v. Wade.
It is possible that in drafting their original complaint, the Schindlers' lawyers could not bring themselves to rely on cases that the pro-life movement abhors, and that they did so, in their second federal complaint, only when their desperation would color the courts' perception of the issue.
If this explanation is accurate, it would be ironic indeed, for it would mean that the Schindlers' and their lawyers' intellectual consistency precluded them from using to their advantage a gift bestowed by a Congress with no such qualms--a Congress that in enacting Terri's Law was willing to cast aside the spirit if not the letter of principles it often professes to hold dear: principles of federalism, separation of powers, and the rule of law.
Quick and dirty summary: "Should have hired better attorneys"
These attorneys, IMNHO, intended to lose the case.
It's an outlaw system that requires the "best foot forward" to rescue an innocent from her murderers.
Basically states what I have heard from many sources...poor council was given/obtained by the Schindler family. I think, from what I know, I would agree with this
That was my fear. The nation's foremost "right-to-die" attorney represents Michael Schiavo. Where was the foremost "right-to-life" constitutional lawyer?
I heard Randall Terry suggested aginst the Fed lawyers who offered to work pro-bono.
(Denny Crane: "Sometimes you can only look for answers from God and failing that... and Fox News".)
(and bump to self for later read)
I've sent the article to Hugh Hewitt; we'll see if he comments.
Thanks - I have bookmarked.
How do you justify when we bomb countries, murdering innocents?
In front of the cameras clamoring for attention?
The truth in this case is that the Schindler's attorneys, from day one, have bungled this case. Most recently, they were handed a gift from the legislature, a second chance in front of a federal judge, and dropped the ball. They made the wrong arguments, as discussed in this article and as mentioned by others who have been watching this case.
In front of the cameras clamoring for attention?
An excellent explanation of the difference between the legal system we have and the justice system we long for. We now see the result of the rule of a man, rather than the rule of law.
What it boiled down to is that Terri's lawyers did not say "Please" pretty enough, Terri married a deatheater, got judged by a deatheater, and now will die.
Actually, the attorneys threw the case to serve another agenda.

If GOD ALMIGHTY had been lawyer or witness for the Schindlers, He would have lost.
Is he the best we've got?
i agree after all i've read (prior to this article) that the schindler's laywer completely squandered the opportunity congress gave them.
one hates to see someone die based on incompetence but that is what happened here. there was no way that the executive branch would step in again after they threw away the first chance to do so.
the laywers didn't presented anything to kick in the "de novo" clause and instead of bringing one strong argument the threw everything they had at the court hoping something would stick. they took a risk and failed horribly.
congress specifically put the de novo clause in because they saw the possible incompetance/corruption of the state case, yet it was the laywers who squandered the opportunity.
From what I can tell, Judge Greer did his own amount of bungling.
Yet, both Judge Whittemore and the Eleventh Circuit failed to come to grips with the fact that Judge Greer issued an order instructing Michael Schiavo to remove Terri's feeding tube, even specifying the exact date and time when he should do so. The state court did not merely stand idly by while permitting Michael to take such action; the court affirmatively mandated the disconnection. That ought to have counted as state action by a state actor--Judge Greer--who was a named defendant in the federal court lawsuit.
Ding! Ding! Ding! We have a winner! The STATE (as represented by Judge Greer) ORDERED the feeding tube removed! What does this mean? It means that Terri's constitutional rights were violated, since no one in government can deny someone LIFE without due process. This dude argues that Terri did receive due process, but in actuallity, it was only her husband's wishes that were under consideration, not Terri's. Judge Greer is WAY OUTA BOUNDS here. (As most of us already know.)
For those of you blaming Jeb Bush for Terri's death, the blame can be more appropriately placed right at the feet of the Schindler's lawyers.
> Actually, the attorneys threw the case to serve another agenda.
such as? (not disagreeing with you, just curious)
I think the initial fatal mistake in this case was the failure to object strenuously to the ex parte communication with Judge Greer that led to the appointment of Felos as co-counsel. In that communique, counsel for Schiavo claimed that the Schindlers were aware of the decision to bring in "right-to-die" counsel on issues of prolonging her life. While Mr. Schindler has said that he was unaware of any such decisions, Schindler counsel did not aggressively protest the appointment.
But, in looking this over, there have been many injustices and instances of ineffective counsel for the Schindlers. (And, having had experience with judicial corruption in a county court, I am not ruling out cronyism and judicial impropriety in this matter.) But the failure to demand the potential relief provided by Congressional action was a staggering lack of advocacy. Personally, I was appalled when I heard the nature of the complaint before a federal court.
That's what I want to know.
Jay Sekulow was on Hannity's radio show almost daily offering commentary, but did he offer his services to the Schindlers?
Who knows, maybe he and others did, and were turned down, but regardless, it seems obvious the Schindlers were outlawyered.
Terri Schiavo Before dehydration
Judicial scope has more ability and is less limited than that you have suggested, in and out of chamber.
If the Clinton-appointed federal judge were interested in protecting life, he would have dimissed the complaint without prejudice and told schindler's attorneys to re-file to re-assert the facts they presented as a 14th amendment right-to-life claim as intended by the act, if they had such a claim. Hinding behind draconian application of procedural rules doesn't justify starving a human being to death.
From a recent movie, in which a bureacrat is spouting procedure:
"Where are the kids?"
"You know, the kids... Cowards often hide behind rules and children."
Check THIS out.
It is possible that in drafting their original complaint, the Schindlers' lawyers could not bring themselves to rely on cases that the pro-life movement abhors, and that they did so, in their second federal complaint, only when their desperation would color the courts' perception of the issue.
So the wacko right-to-lifers apparently hoistered Terri Shiavo on their own petard, emphatically proving that she was just a pawn in their game.
Is this a logical conclusion to what you said?
> Personally, I was appalled when I heard the nature of the

same here.
i thought "what does congress need to do!? add a p.s. to the legislation laying exactly what to write in their court filings?"
this does not excuse the florida legislature for not doing something to stop the dehydration to death of a healthy person but i agree the federal gov did above and beyond what could be expected on such a state issue.
FL state courts: followed letter of the FL law w/o compassion
FL state legislature: failed
FL state executive: attempted to help (DCF), thwarted by FL courts
US legislature: tried to help
US courts: operated as expected
Schindler lawyers: FAILED
Schiavo lawyers: operated as expected
Doctors for Michael Schiavo have said that an MRI and PET are not necessary for Terri because PVS is primarily a clinical diagnosis, that is, one arrived at on the basis of examination of the patient, rather than by relying on tests. And the neurologists I have spoken to agree on the clinical nature of the diagnosis, while insisting that advanced tests nonetheless are a necessary part of it. But the star medical witness for Michael Schiavo, Dr. Ronald Cranford of the University of Minnesota, has repeatedly dismissed calls for MRI testing, and his opinion has prevailed.
Dr. Cranford was the principal medical witness brought in by Schiavo and Felos to support their position that Terri was PVS. Judge Greer was obviously impressed by Cranfords résumé: Cranford travels throughout the country testifying in cases involving PVS and brain impairment. He is widely recognized by courts as an expert in these issues, and in some circles is considered the expert on PVS. His clinical judgment has carried the day in many cases, so it is relevant to examine the manner in which he arrived at his judgment in Terris case. But before that, one needs to know a little about Cranfords background and perspective: Dr. Ronald Cranford is one of the most outspoken advocates of the right to die movement and of physician-assisted suicide in the U.S. today.
In published articles, including a 1997 op-ed in the MinneapolisSt. Paul Star Tribune, he has advocated the starvation of Alzheimers patients. He has described PVS patients as indistinguishable from other forms of animal life. He has said that PVS patients and others with brain impairment lack personhood and should have no constitutional rights. Perusing the case literature and articles surrounding the right to die and PVS, one will see Dr. Cranfords name surface again and again. In almost every case, he is the one claiming PVS, and advocating the cessation of nutrition and hydration.
No, that is not what I said. What I said is that, most glaringly in the federal action, the Schindler's attorneys drafted a very poor pleading which almost assured that they would not get the relief they were seeking.
I saw Jay Sekulow say this same thing - and it is correct - the Schindler's legal arguements were weak and they did not take advantage of the bill passed by congress. I saw Bob Schindler say that he was a "legal neophyte" so they were relying solely on their free legal advice.
I thought that several legal sources were being used - banding together so to speak to save Terri - but that was not the case.
I've maintained all along that this was a violation of her 14th Amendment due process rights, and especially so when there is evidence that she is being put to death on the faulty premise that she is in a PVS, based on 9-year old tests, after she has been denied new tests and diagnosed by competent neurologists as not being in a PVS.
While a judge has the ability to act sua sponte, it is not his job to act as effective counsel for a party, particularly one like the Schindlers who are quite able to retain competent counsel.
You nailed it dead on once again.

Comprehensive B Complex Support
- Unlike Many B Vitamin Products, Basic B Complex Contains the Active Forms for Enhanced Bioavailability
- Basic B Complex Contains an Optimal Balance of Essential B Vitamins
- Basic B Complex is Yeast Free
Basic B Complex consists of a group of eight water-soluble compounds: thiamine (vitamin B1), riboflavin (vitamin B2), niacin (vitamin B3), pantothenic acid (vitamin B5), pyridoxine (vitamin B6), cobalamin (vitamin B12), folate, and biotin. Although each B vitamin is chemically distinct, they often work together in various biochemical functions throughout the body – from cellular energy production, to healthy red-blood-cell formation, to healthy neurological function. Most B vitamins, with the exception of vitamin B12, are not stored in the body; consequently, they must be acquired daily from the diet in order to maintain optimal health.
Supplementing with active B vitamins is extremely important to everyone, especially individuals who may not be able to convert non-active vitamins to their active forms in the liver because of compromised liver function, poorly functioning enzymes, digestive disturbances, or age. Dietary supplements containing these active cofactors have enhanced bioavailability, ensuring the body gets the nutrients it needs.
Thorne Research's Basic B Complex contains the entire B-complex, including the activated forms of vitamin B2 (riboflavin 5'-phosphate), vitamin B6 (pyridoxal 5'-phosphate), folic acid (L-5-methyltetrahydrofolate), and vitamin B12 (methylcobalamin), as well as 80 mg choline citrate. Although choline is often grouped with the B vitamin family, it is not officially a B vitamin.

As they explain in their literature, the methyl form is what the body uses and thus a more efficient way to supplement. Some people can't convert to the methyl form making most B-complexes ineffective. For someone who is healthy and just wants to make sure they are getting enough of the complex this is great. For someone with a specific health issue they can use this and supplement with isolated b vitamins like b3, B5, or a sublingual Methyl B12 to get the therapeutic dose they desire. Also, there is a 1 star review written by someone from Australia stating that Thorne uses GMO's in their products. I went on Thorne's website and they take a very strong policy stand against using GMO's. Below is a quote. "Thorne Research, Inc. does not make any products that contain Genetically Modified Organisms (known as GMOs)." They are also partnering with an anti GMO group. Below is another quote. "Thorne Research is partnering with the Non-GMO Project, a non-profit organization that verifies that products are free of GMOs or materials derived from GMOs. The Non-GMO Project has developed a nationally recognized standard that has been developed by industry partners who, like Thorne Research, share the concern about the long-term safety of GMOs." I have no interest in defending Thorne. They are big enough to defend themselves. I just don't like it when someone takes a shot at someone with un- true info.

This product seems good. This is the best balanced b complex on iHerb (but it would be much better with benfotiamine and pantethine). The B6 level isn't too high and it is coenzymed. This vitamin is more toxic than people may think (especially pyridoxine). However, i still think that the thiamin and niacin level are a bit too high... This is like if companies put more vitamins to sell their products more expensively or because they don't have the technology to deal with smaller doses... In some cases, high doses are justified but not always.
Too soon to tell

Where I stayed
What I did
Explored, pictures, food tasting
We (me, Caitlyn, Lyle, Carey & Miles) left on Friday and got there around one. We proceeded to hang out and talk and such until we went to bed. In the morning, we headed out to Maastricht to explore...the city was really cool, and definitely different from everywhere I've been so far. I really liked being by water and around people who were friendly and interesting to watch!
We had french fries while while we were there (second time for the day, the first time was McDonalds in the morning lol...its become somewhat of a travel tradition to have it at least once...so call me American.) but they were really good! I didn't get any myself, but most of the group got the standard ketchup/curry/mayo combo (which, by the way, I still don't get
After we were done being touristy, we headed back to Jimmy's where we watched a few movies and had dinner at a fried food place. Everything at this place was really delicious...there were these fried rolls that kind of looked like spring rolls but were filled with different things like spicy pork and garlic or chicken and-wait for it- Peanut butter! it was actually really good! They also had very good currywurst and fries. It was a really unique place to dine at.
For the most part, it was a very relaxed weekend. We did a lot of people watching, observing and hanging out, but it was nice to take a trip at a slower place for once. I think everyone had a really good time together, and it occurred to me again this weekend that I'm really going to miss these people! When they said your camp friends are going to be some of the best you ever make, I didn't take it to seriously, but now I can definitely see why. I've definitely made some really great memories with incredible people and never want it to end!
Next weekend? It's in the air...I guess you'll just have to wait and see!

These are really strong

I like mints, peppermint in particular, however, these mints were really strong, almost too strong. I like lifesavers so it is saying a bit if it is almost too strong for mee. While I like that they are more natural I don't think I would buy them again simply because of the cost and they were only okay for me.

Before I found these mints, I had not been able to eat a mint, or chew gum for 15 years because almost everything that is processed contains a corn product, and corn closes my throat. I do appreciate these tasty little mints, and the fact that they are not contaminated with toxins is even better.

Tag: Guantanamo (page 4)
Carol Rosenberg of McClatchy reports on the cost of housing inmates at Guantanamo in the Miami Herald. It costs $800,000 a year to house one detainee, according to a letter Eric Holder and Leon Pannetta sent Congress this summer. There are 171 detainees still at Guantanamo.
Congress, determined to keep Gitmo open, authorized provided $139 million for its operation last year. Why isn't it under consideration for part of the $1.5 trillion budget cut?

This has been the worst week for the stock market since 2008.
The Dow lost 6.4 percent for the week, its biggest drop since the week that ended Oct. 10, 2008, when it fell 18 percent. That was at the height of the financial crisis.
Investors fear a recession or worse. The Administration is out pushing its deficit/jobs plan and telling us there are hard choices to make.
Yesterday, the Navy published a notice seeking a contractor to repair the bowling alley, youth center and Liberty Center at Guantanamo, at a cost of $3 million. (Note, this is not for the detainees, but the military employees.) [More...]

In Brussels, Attorney General Eric Holder said Obama remains committed to closing Guantanamo despite Republican opposition. If he doesn't get it done before the election, he'll keep trying after.
"We will be pressing for the closure of the facility between now and then - and after that election, we will try to close it as well," Holder said. "Some people have made this a political issue without looking at, I think, the real benefits that would flow from the closure of the facility."
He also said there will be no return to harsh interrogation techniques/torture:
Holder also said that the United States would stick to the "fundamental break" with some interrogation techniques that were criticized around the world as amounting to torture...."We have indicated that certain techniques that were used previously are in fact torture, and will not be engaged in again by the United States," Holder said.

Yesterday, the House passed its version of the the 2012 National Defense Authorization Act (available here.) The roll call vote is here. The bill, which is a renewal of the 2001 authority for war, expands the authority world-wide. The bill passed by a vote of 322-96 and contains a $553 billion Pentagon base budget and $119 billion for overseas contingency operations.
It also blocks federal criminal trials of suspected terrorists who are not U.S. citizens. An amendment to strike the worldwide war provision failed. Obama has promised to veto the bill due to the world-wide war authority provision.
The bill also delays implementation of Don't Ask, Don't Tell and provides that those considered for indefinite detention at Guantanamo may not be represented by legal counsel, only a military representative. It also prohibits the Guantanamo detainees from receiving family visits. [More...]

Detainee Hajji Nassim, aka Inayatullah, committed suicide at Guantanamo yesterday. He is the sixth detainee to kill himself at Guantanamo.
He was captured in Afghanistan and sent to Guantanamo in 2007. He was represented by the Federal Defenders of Miami, who say at one point they arranged for a civilian psychiatrist to visit him.
Wikileaks has no documents on him, but his the pleadings in his habeas case, available on PACER, (Case No. 09-cv-01332-HHK) detail more than 60 interrogations, the first of which was on September 13, 2007. He was an Afghan national who co-owned a cell phone store in Iran. He was suspected of providing safe housing and/or transit from Iran to Pakistan to Turk/al Qaeda fighters. On one occasion he may have delivered a message. He had a wife and six children. He was very concerned about his brother Hidayatullah who he thought was imprisoned at Bagram. [More...]

McClatchy's Carol Rosenberg and Tom Lasseter have an analysis of the new Guantanamo documents released by Wikileaks to various news organizations. Shorter version: Bush and Rumsfeld's detention and interrogation policies were a flub.
a collection of secret intelligence documents from George W. Bush's administration, not meant to surface for 20 years, shows that the military's efforts at Guantánamo often were much less effective than the government has acknowledged. Viewed as a whole, the secret intelligence summaries help explain why in May 2009 President Barack Obama, after ordering his own review of wartime intelligence, called America's experiment at Guantánamo "quite simply a mess."
The information from detainee-informants was unreliable. [More...]

Jeh Johnson, the General Counsel for the Department of Defense, is urging Congress not to rule out civilian trials of detainees.
Jeh (Jay) Johnson said a Republican bill to virtually remove the civilian option would make it more likely that courts would step in when detainees challenge their detentions. He testified Thursday before the House Armed Services Committee.
Carol Rosenberg at the Miami Herald has much more on new Republican efforts to prevent closing Gitmo:
But the focus was the Republican draft legislation that would further thwart Obama's efforts to close the detention center in southeast Cuba. It also would give the defense secretary rather than the attorney general final say on keeping a detainee in military custody. The bill imposes such tough requirements on transfers of the last Guantánamo captives that Defense Secretary Robert Gates has said he might not be able to approve any release.
Best line from the hearing:
They turn Guantánamo Bay into the Hotel California," said the top Democrat on the committee, Washington Rep. Adam Smith. "You can check out any time you want but you can never leave."

President Obama is about to lift the ban on military commission trials at Guantanamo.
One of those expected to be recharged and tried is Abd al Rahim al Nashiri, who was captured in 2002. Al-Nashiri was originally charged by the Bush Administration with participating in the 2000 bombing of the U.S.S. Cole. He was facing the death penalty. The Obama Administration moved to dismiss the charges against in in 2009. Al-Nashiri's co-defendants were moved to federal court. Why wasn't Al-Nashiri? The obvious answer is because the evidence against him was obtained by torture. His lawyer, Lt. Com. Stephen Reyes says:
"Nashiri is being prosecuted at the commissions because of the torture issue," Mr. Reyes said. "Otherwise he would be indicted in New York along with his alleged co-conspirators."

As predicted, President Obama has signed the defense funding authorization bill into law, issuing a signing statement that registered his objections but did not assert the provisions banning funding for the transfer of Guantanamo detainees was unconstitutional.
Despite my strong objection to these provisions, which my Administration has consistently opposed, I have signed this Act because of the importance of authorizing appropriations for, among other things, our military activities in 2011.
Nevertheless, my Administration will work with the Congress to seek repeal of these restrictions, will seek to mitigate their effects, and will oppose any attempt to extend or expand them in the future.
Good luck with that. Once you give power to the Government, it rarely gives it back.
Human Rights First has issued this response. [More...]

Via Pro Publica: President Obama plans to include a signing statement in the funding bill passed by Congress pertaining to the restrictions on transfers of Guantanamo detainees.
The spending measure effectively bars the president from prosecuting any detainees in federal court or conducting military commission trials on U.S. soil. The bill makes it increasingly difficult to transfer detainees to foreign countries, even if the administration deems them safe to release. And it complicates the review process Obama plans in the executive order for nearly 50 detainees the administration has designated as too dangerous to free.
It's not clear whether his statement will express opposition to all of the provisions, or just some of them. Nor is it clear whether he will merely state his objection to the provisions or assert at least some unconstitutionally infringe on prosecutorial discretion, an executive power. [More...]

Family Influences African-American Boys' Identities the Most, Study FindsNovember 2, 2012 • By A GoodTherapy.org News Summary
Masculinity is something most boys conform to, in their own ways, at one time or another. During adolescence, boys form their beliefs relating to masculinity in large part due to influences such as family, peers, society, media, and mentors. African-American youths' perceptions of masculinity have been studied at length, particularly socioeconomically disadvantaged boys. Some of these individuals do not have the presence of a stable and secure father figure in their lives and could be at risk for adopting negative masculine ideals such as being in a gang, promiscuity, or financial and academic irresponsibility. To better understand how African-American boys from varying economic backgrounds conceptualize and adopt masculinity during their teen years, Karisman Roberts-Douglass of San Jose State University's Counseling Services Department recently surveyed 15 African-American young adult men and asked them about the events that influenced their masculine identity formation.
The men recalled events and influences throughout their lives and reported that family members had the biggest impact on their conformity to positive or negative masculine ideals. The most significant predictor of masculinity was the presence of a role model in the form of a father or grandfather. Even participants who had no father figure present embraced the ideals of a deceased family member if he was cast in a positive light. This was true regardless of economic status. One surprising result was that the most privileged participants felt more pressure to conform to negative masculine ideals during adolescence than economically disadvantaged participants. This could be due to the fact that to compensate for their wealth, they needed to assert their cultural conformity through their behaviors, including sports, being sexually promiscuous, or engaging in other risky behaviors.
Roberts-Douglass found that even in circumstances where teens felt pressured to conform to negative African-American masculine ideals, positive family influences protected them from acting on those impulses. Parents and family members who stressed the importance of education and financial responsibility were cited as being significantly responsible for the choices the participants made. "In the case of this study, family was the most important variable," Roberts-Douglass said.

Although everybody is responsible for his own actions and teens do some illogical things,the truth is that most of their actions are determined by what they see, hear,experience and learn. So it is as much a responsibility of the parents to provide an environment conductive of positive behavior as it is for teens to mind their actions.

What about these young black men who have no positive make role model and have never had this in their lives? Where are they supposed to them derive their masculinity from? Oh wait I know, they then become dead beats like all of the other dead beat men who have cycled through their lives.
StarlaNovember 3rd, 2012 at 3:00 PM
I know that many people get tired of hearing this over and over again, but I think that it is very clear that young black men lack the support and the advantages that so many of the rest of us do.
Many if not most come from broken homes that have never had a consistent father figure around and as a result these young men are left to flounder and wonder what it really means to be a man who not only takes care of himself but one who knows what he needs to do to take care of a family of his own.
If there are strong women in their lives then of course this makes a great difference to them too but sometimes, especially for young boys there is no real substitute for having a father with them at home.
memorymakerzNovember 5th, 2012 at 9:38 AM
I wish the media would get on board with this issue. As much as family is an influence, so is the media in my opinion. If young black men only see young black men portrayed as thugs, drug dealers, gang members, and pimps, what are they supposed to do? The rap culture is as responsible for this mess as much as anyone else. Personal responsibility only goes so far when what you see is what you become. If people would stop trying to make money off of promoting this type of culture, maybe some real change could come about.
Lacey ByrneNovember 8th, 2012 at 8:56 AM
Great comments. This is an important conversation. We cannot discuss masculinity without also discussing class, race, and sexuality. We certainly struggle with positive role models for youth but it is especially egregious for underserved populations when looking for role models. And because our culture is entrenched in racist ideology we don't question these images portrayed about African American men. We need to question these images and realize that they are performance based trying to sell us something.

Brian Windhorst Rumors
ESPN Cleveland: Brian Windhorst: LeBron has helped his coaches way more that he's ever hurt them. #Cavs
Brian Windhorst: LeBron James did have an anti-inflammation shot in his back this week out of precaution, sources said. First reported by @Jason Lloyd
When Wojnarowski began at Yahoo Sports in 2006 the site wasn't known for its sports reporting. Wojnarowski singlehandedly changed that. "He is the one who made Yahoo, it is not Yahoo that made him," says ESPN's Brian Windhorst. Wojnarowski churns out reported columns at a furious pace and often publishes them in the middle of the night. "He is a complete freaking animal," says New York Daily News Knicks reporter Frank Isola. "Adrian is basically a reporter on steroids."

Ireland and Australia each eased to rather rudimentary wins on their most recent outings, the Shamrock overseeing a 40-9 victory over Samoa while Italy fell to the Wallabies in Turin 50-20.
This weekend, though, the two international giants meet at the Aviva Stadium and are bound to prove a far more difficult test of each other's depth, with Ewen McKenzie's visitors striving to stave away a second defeat of their tour.
Meanwhile, Joe Schmidt's Test tenure as Irish boss only got off to its start last week, but back-to-back wins over Australia would certainly give the New Zealander some personal satisfaction to go along with a team win.
With the back lines taking up most of the storylines, read on for a preview of some of the most important individual matchups to watch come 5:45 p.m. GMT on Saturday, the winner of each having a very real impact on who emerges as victor.

text: When he's not putting out atmospheric and experimental blues-based music as King Krule, Archie Marshall has been releasing a steady supply of atmospheric and experimental hip-hop as DJ JD Sports. While King Krule finds Marshall at his most introspective and personal, DJ JD Sports has always seemed to be Marshall's output for collaborative, half-baked and less serious projects. Marshall's newest release has him remixing "Midnight Snack" from his friend Jerkclub into a hip-hop styled beat and calling on more friends to rap over it. Not surprisingly, DJ JD Sports' reinterpretation is a sparingly gorgeous instrumental that provides the perfect platform for his friends to provide stoned flows over. None of the rappers featured show any interest in out boasting the other and instead mix stoner introspection with pokemon references without any sense of urgency or purpose. It's a refreshingly laidback approach that results in the "Midnight Snacks" remix sounding like a group of friends freestyling together to pass the time, which is probably exactly how it started.

The man at the front door was not that nice or polite, he was just grumpy all the time and being sometimes rude. It is smelly and the breakfast included it's nothing worth it. I would not recommend this hostel, there are many with similar price and better attention and location.

The hostel is OK, it is a comfortable place to sleep and there are nearby supermarkets and places to visit. However it seems to be under construction during my stay we could not use the kitchen really and there was only one shower for the entire hostel, and water was often turned off and some staff would not always be very helpful in telling you when the shower would be available. I understand construction does cause problems but to still have to pay full price seemed unfair.
