Secretary Clinton and Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd delivered remarks yesterday after their meeting in Washington.SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, I am delighted that we've had the opportunity, first with the President and now here at the State Department, to discuss a range of important issues with the Prime Minister and with his delegation. America doesn't have a better friend in the world than Australia, a friend through good times and hard times on so many of the historic and difficult challenges that have faced the United States and Australia, both singly and together. And we have reaffirmed out commitment to working closely on the range of difficult problems, but also exciting opportunities that lie ahead.
So, Mr. Prime Minister, again, welcome here to the Benjamin Franklin Room in the State Department.
PRIME MINISTER RUDD: Thank you very much, Secretary of State. It's good to be back here in the State Department. I've been here many times before, and it's good to be here with you as Secretary of State. We regard you as a genuine friend of Australia, and it's good to have had this discussion with you.
The Secretary is convening soon a conference in The Hague to galvanize international support for the good people of Afghanistan. This is something which Australia strongly supports. Foreign Minister Smith will be attending. This sort of collaborative effort is important for the future of Afghanistan. It is also further evidence of the strong leadership which we see from the Obama Administration and through the Secretary of State in so many areas of foreign policy.
The only other thing I would say is the Secretary of State's recent visit to East Asia, I believe, sent a very strong and positive signal to our part of the world about this Administration's engagement with the Asian Pacific, which will be such a dynamic part of the 21st century.
So, Secretary of State, thank you for hosting me to the State Department today.
SECRETARY CLINTON: Thank you so much, Prime Minister. Thank you all.
QUESTION: Madame Secretary, one question if you would. The Polish foreign minister was quoted over the weekend with some unusually strong language saying that the Poles had taken considerable risk in agreeing to cooperate in American missile defense plans and that they are waiting on the current Administration's announcement of its further plans with regard to missile defense and that he hopes that the Polish trust in the Americans was not misplaced. I'm paraphrasing, but it was close to that.
Now given the unusual nature of that language, what can you tell us about whether or not the Poles, to put it colloquially, are being left high and dry?
SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, we have a very long and deep relationship with Poland and with the Polish Government and the Polish people. We are going to continue to consult with them and work through the issues concerning security that are of, you know, great interest to not only the Poles but all Europeans and the United States. As members of NATO, we take seriously our alliance commitments and I'm very confident that we will work through whatever issues lie ahead on any front. And that's part of what will be discussed at the upcoming NATO summit.
Thank you. Thank you all.

We like and respect Kevin Rudd too, from what we have seen so far, and we certainly like and respect Hillary Clinton. Hopefully the ANZUS countries can continue to strengthen ties in our respective new administrations.
Edite in Canada writes:
It appears that Australia will be onside with the United States in future challenges and that is a good thing. However, one is more concerned with the non-answer Madame Secretary gave to the questioner regarding the anti-ballistic missile defense shield contracted for Poland. The answer she gave was one, we, who are interested in the security of Europe and the United States to a very large degree did not answer the question asked of her. Will the United States honor the building of the shield even though Poland is ready to risk the wrath of Putin and Medvedev who have directly threatened Poles if such a shield is built in Russia's" near abroad", as Russians like to put it, but really mean Poland belongs to them. Just what is the United States going to do, appease the Russians with a quid pro quo like asking them to engage with Iran on nuclear weapons, which will not happen, they will help them schieve one behind the scenes, just like 200 Soviet scientists helped the Iraquis during the First Gulf War against America. Transparency, honesty,and common sense are the bulwarks in diplomacy.

Topic: RDoc Issues
Hi, I need to use the Rdocs to generate/collect documentation from my controllers etc.
I have figured out the basics but am still having some annoying issues that I can't seem to get past. I would greatly appreciate any help on these issues or any tips to use RDocs in general since this is a mandatory part of my job.
The issues are:
* I have placed multiple lines of comments before each method using '#', however only the first line is being picked up. I can't see having to use the -begin -end method for comments!
* When I first looked at the html generated, I could click on each method name and the actual method displayed in a popup. Somehow that changed. Now there does not seem to be a way to view the actual method, only the name and the first line of comment preceding the name
* Do I have to delete the doc folder every time I want to rebuild the documents? When I reran rdoc a second time, it seemed to replace everything except the one controller that had changed.
I hope someone out there is familiar with this and can help me since there does not seem to be a tutorial - only documentation on RDocs in RDocs! - talk about recursive!!!

Well, Kurt Cobain's songs pale in comparison to Paul, but I think he did a fine job carrying a band. You just can't make that comparison.
I have to respectfully disagree. Many of Kurt's songs blew Paul well and truly out of the water (Blew is one example lol), there are so many Kurt songs Paul would have no hope in hell of coming up with - Kurt came up with riffs no one in else the world could imagine.
Regarding Spirits of Ancient Egypt, so what if Paul wrote it... Denny takes lead vocal... it's Denny's moment in the sun.

Well, it's neither stupid nor childish. It is a valid human emotion, irrespective of how old you are or your background. Listen to John Lennon's Plastic Ono Band album. Angst is its middle name. Inner demons are what make musicians interesting to me. Sure it's nice to have your Neil Sedakas as well, but life isn't all candy floss and calendar girls, is it!

Even watched AV and Reading Saturday morning for relegation purposes. Unfortunately AV won a huge match in that regard. Shit, I'm even to the point where Scottish Premier League and MLS (if it's in Seattle, Portland or KC) are must watch.And incidentally, USWNT down 1-0 to SWE right now in Algrave Cup. SWE scored in 4th minute on some wind-blown bomb. US down two GKs as well with Solo and Barnhart out with injuries requiring surgery.

That was once of the ugliest sporting events I've ever watched and I watched Julian Tavares pitch. 33 fouls, 7 yellow cards, NO GOALS, lots of dirty play, and Hulse unforgivably missed for Millwall 2 feet out from a great cross. Pathetic. How 'bout Liverpool Rising? After a terrible start, they're now sitting in 6th with a realistic chance at 4th and a great shot for Europa qualification given the rest of their schedule. Chelsea looked possessed in the 2nd half but their play has been up and down. Bale is the only thing going for Spurs and are in the opposite direction of Pool. Pool is only down 2 pts to Arsenal so they can definitely make up the gap. The last 2 months are going to be fantastic football to watch.

Asustek Computer has said at a news-conference that it would release a netbook at $200 price-point in the first quarter of next year. The firm did not reveal any details about the product, which might be an interesting option also to those countries looking forward inexpensive mobile computers for educational organizations.
A representative for Asustek said in an interview with IDG News Service that the company plans to unveil an Asus Eee PC netbook at $200 price-point in Q1 2009. The firm did not disclose whether the product would be demonstrated at Consumer Electronics Show 2009 in Las Vegas, Nevada, in early January, but stressed that the device would hit the market in the first quarter of next year.
Earlier Asustek Computer wanted to phase-out Eee PC with 7" displays since many consumers found them uncomfortable. However, it is not certain that the $200 model will feature larger panel. The vast majority of Asus Eee PC systems are based on Intel Atom processors, though, there are also Intel Celeron M-powered models.
The Asus Eee PC at $200 price-point will compete with OLPC XO-1 ultra-cheap laptop that is sold for less than $200 to governments and for $199 to those who want to donate the system to a child in a developing country. Even though Eee PCs are not exactly tailored for education markets, the new systems may still become popular both in public as well as private sectors in developing countries thanks to low price and better functionality compared to the XO-1.
Even though originally Asustek planned to sell its Eee PC 700-series netbooks with 7" screens for $199, the actual prices were tangibly higher due to strong demand from end-users in developed world. In fact, an Asus Eee PC for $200 may also become popular in richer countries due to economic slump.

JW Manus has worked her ass off for me. She deserves high praise. Her obsessinating when it comes to formatting is beyond compare. She strives for perfection in every book she formats. I can't thank her enough.
Now Jaye has a new release. I'm lucky, I got to proof this delicious retro romance and its soon-to-be released twin brother. (I say 'brother' because these two heroes are so attractive, appealing, intriguing and flat out sexy.)
Here it is… Announcing the release of:
Dark Reflections: A Romantic Suspense (Mirror Images)
…A good girl gone bad?
Businesswoman Dana Benson leads a charmed life—until she's arrested for murder.
When defense attorney Kurt Saxon takes the case, he is not anywhere close to Dana's idea of an attorney. He's rude, loud and outrageous—a flesh and blood bulldozer who'll fight to the death to get what he wants. His clients are never innocent and he prefers it that way. Now Kurt faces his personal nightmare—a truly innocent client. A drug dealer is dead. The cops have eyewitnesses and a videotape saying Dana gunned him down. The press thinks she's guilty. Her business associates think she's guilty. Even a killer thinks she's a killer and he's out for revenge.
Only Kurt believes Dana. Only Kurt can keep her alive long enough to find the mysterious, murderous doppleganger who set Dana up to take the fall.

Stewart + Brown | Organic Pioneers
Contributing Monkie Sarah Backhouse

There's nothing like giving birth to inspire inflated ideas of one's own creativity. It's like, wow, I just created human life, what can't I do? Er… well, a lot actually.
Luckily this wasn't case for Karen Stewart and Howard Brown, whose ethical clothing brand Stewart + Brown was born, alongside baby Hazel, back in 2002.
Spying a hole in the fashion industry for high quality, stylish clothing with minimal impact on the planet, the couple decided to capitalize on their complementary skill set. Karen is a trained painter cum designer who had previously worked at Urban Outfitters and Patagonia. Howard is a graphic designer and brand development guru who also worked at Urban Outfitters as well as Microsoft, X Games and Anthropologie. Together, this husband and wife design duo have created a collection of flirty, functional and highly fashionable pieces.
The Stewart + Brown collection is composed of various product categories including: ORGNC, an organic cotton line which includes pima, jersey crepe, fleece and French terry; SURP+, apparel and accessories made from excess fabrics and materials; and GREEN, designs from naturally cultivated fibers like linen and hemp.
We were treated to an in-house preview of their Spring/Summer 2008 "Fado Do Mar" Collection, which was inspired by their travels to Portugal. Lucky sods. We spied a super cute layered cotton jersey dress in pink and grey, a just-back-from-the-marina blue and white crochet top, gorgeous indigo woven pleated skirt and many more items featuring that exquisite Portuguese flavor.
To see the entire collection, visit Stewart + Brown.

Bringing a new puppy into the family comes with new challenges, as well as plenty of love and affection. Although owners may want to simply relax and snuggle with their new additions, training needs to begin right away to ensure they raise well-rounded canines.
According to VCA Animal Hospitals, one of the most important aspects of teaching a puppy is to help it understand how to play and enjoy being active. This can help prevent your puppy from turning into an inactive adult dog who will be more prone to serious medical conditions such as obesity and arthritis.
How much activity a puppy requires depends largely on the breed of dog they are. Large working breeds like German shepherds or bernese mountain dogs require more exercise than a toy poodle or a dachshund. It is possible to overdo it with a puppy so it is important to consult with a veterinarian to avoid over- or under-exercising your new pup.
Games are a great way to have fun with a puppy and help them get active. VCA suggests starting with interactive play like hide and seek - with one family member hiding and the puppy going to find it. Other games to try include search games, such as setting out bits of kibble or treats in the yard and having the new pup try to sniff it out.

Analyst: Don't Expect RIM's BB10 Until March 2013
Jason Mick
October 9, 2012 3:00 PM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
Analysts hoped RIM would launch the platform in January; still no OFFICIAL word, yet
It sounds like it could be more bad news for a familiar struggling player in the smartphone industry -- but take this one with a grain of salt.
Jefferies analyst Peter Misek is
back to his old ways
, spreading a tale of gloom and doom regarding Research in Motion, Ltd. (
Regarding RIM's ambiguous "Q1 2013" launch of its
upcoming BlackBerry 10 (BB10)
smartphone operating system and new device lineup, he warns, "We had hoped for a January launch but now see a March launch as more likely. Also, our checks point to a tough November quarter, with replenishment rates decreasing as channel partners are cautious on holding RIM inventory. We think the business uncertainty means parties are unlikely to acquire or license from RIM until BB10 launches."
He adds, "We still believe a third ecosystem [in addition to iOS and Android] will emerge, but the probability of BB10 filling the role is wholly dependent on whether RIM can convince Samsung, Huawei, and ZTE to license. Baidu, Huawei, and others are pursuing their own operating systems. We also see Win 8 as somewhat of a threat but conflicting reviews, less-than-stellar developer feedback, and a desire by Microsoft to make hardware directly make Win 8."
So far if RIM has a
licensing plan
up its sleeve, it hasn't announced it yet. Thus far all of the RIM's
announced BB10 devices
have been first-party designs, the company's traditional bread and butter.
An analyst claims the RIMdenberg won't be delivering BB10 devices as early as anticipated.
[Image Source: Jason Mick/DailyTech LLC]
Of course Mr. Misek had
previously told
All Things Digital
, "It's going to be terrible with a scoop of worse for August."
Instead RIM handily beat Mr. Misek's financial prediction. The fiscal surprise came thanks to strong cost cutting, and was in spite of the fact that RIM largely met Mr. Misek's gloomy prediction on the unit sales front.
The facts are simple -- RIM has delayed BB10 by over a year so far. And its volumes lay decimated at a fraction of their former glory.
However, it's worth taking Mr. Misek and other analysts' "inside" information with a bit of skepticism, until the same news comes straight from horse's mouth (which it oft does). After all, those same aforementioned dire metrics have certain parties greedily eyeing
a fire sale purchase
of the embattled phonemaker, and every bit of extra bad news -- true or not -- likely sweetens the price.
"Game reviewers fought each other to write the most glowing coverage possible for the powerhouse Sony, MS systems. Reviewers flipped coins to see who would review the Nintendo Wii. The losers got stuck with the job." -- Andy Marken

Abbey Road over rated? Forget it; get real.
Abbey Road side 2 is tremendous; the best piece of sustained, segued, melodic, almost symphonic pop/rock EVER. Never equalled, even when there were groups (Pink Floyd, Genesis et al) who were trying for a similar, themed, sweeping style throughout the seventies.
I really cannot cope with people (especially so called Macca/Beatles fans) who don't adore AR and who don't think it's the best (or at the very least one of the best) things ever done in popular music.
What side two manages to do is to be grand, emotional, tear-jerking, fun, moody, eclectic and EPIC without EVER approaching pretension. It so easily could have been a self-aggrandising disaster. But it wasn't; it was their true farewell parting shot. Total musical genius. I wonder if anybody else agrees with me?
Come Together, Oh Darling, Because and Golden Slumbers showed that the Beatles were not beneath nicking ideas from other people.

You're a little late to the party here....the Beatles nicked ideas through there entire career and admitted doing it right from the start.
But yeah, I like the White Album too.

Public safety updates council
ESCANABA – Escanaba Public Safety Director Ken Vanderlinden fielded questions about his department and its needs from the Escanaba City Council during a budget hearing Monday afternoon.
One of the major concerns for Public Safety in the last year was updating officer training. Five officers were missing necessary fire training in fire truck driving and hazardous materials operations.
"The entire department is where they should have been years ago. How or why people fell through the cracks as far as training I don't know, but I assure you they have what they need," said Vanderlinden.
Under the proposed budget, it is recommended that the department receive $4,000 for education and training of public safety officers. This is a $1,500 – roughly 27 percent – decrease from last year's education and training allotment.
The department is planning to increase its fire preparedness by acquiring a fire truck through military surplus. However, Public Safety is having difficulty acquiring the truck due to its classification as a public safety unit.
"The military surplus site views public safety officers different than we'd like them to. Law enforcement is able to get this equipment; firemen can get this equipment. Well, they view us strictly as law enforcement," said Vanderlinden, adding he believes working with agencies downstate will allow the department to acquire a ladder truck.
The Escanaba Public Safety Department is also responsible for overseeing 911 dispatch. An additional $10,000 has been budgeted for dispatcher training.
"From the time a call is made, to the time of an arrival of an officer is three minutes or less. It's pretty impressive," said City Manager Jim O'Toole.
Both Vanderlinden and O'Toole stressed while the department is exceeding expectations in many areas, it is understaffed.
"The Department of Public Safety has seen a reduction in force both in uniformed officers and in clerical staff, and unfortunately that's just a sign of the times with respect to the revenues coming in from the state," said O'Toole.
Building improvements have also been included in the proposed Public Safety budget. The department will receive a new roof for its building, windows will continue to be replaced throughout the facility, and $8,000 will be set aside for routine maintenance.

NTSB to Host Search & Rescue Forum
The U.S. National Transportation Safety Board is holding a public forum on July 17 and 18 to examine the "regulations, policies and procedures" for general aviation search and rescue (SAR) operations. NTSB Chairman Deborah Hersman will lead a discussion aimed at creating a "dialogue" between operators, manufacturers, industry associations and regulators about safety issues. The four other board members—Christopher Hart, Mark Rosekind, Robert Sumwalt and Earl Weener—and panelists from industry and government groups will also be involved in the two-day forum in Washington, D.C. The second day (July 18) will focus on emerging technologies and the future of general aviation SAR.

Jupiter is blessed with one of the most scenic and explorer-friendly rivers in the state. The Loxahatchee River cuts through a primordial environment that has long been lost elsewhere to development, farming and ranching in nearby towns. The meandering river and its watershed encompass a 260-square-mile ecosystem that includes freshwater creeks and brackish estuary that feed into the Jupiter Inlet and the Atlantic Ocean. Designated Florida's first Wild and Scenic River—one of only two—the Loxahatchee takes visitors on a trip paddling back in time.
Photo by Michael Dubiner
For a truly wild experience, take a self-guided canoe trip embarking from Riverbend Park just off Indiantown Road. Head downstream towards the Northwest Fork, where a nearly nine-mile stretch is protected by the National Wild and Scenic River Program. Slow-moving and easy to navigate—though there are some tight elbows that require some maneuverability—this portion of the river is shaded by old cypress growth and sabal palms where alligators lurk and turtle lazily sun themselves on roots and embankments. Two small dams act as mini waterfalls when the water levels are low, adding a little fun to the flow.
Three self-guided paddle options are available at Riverbend Park: the Cypress Canopy, the Secret of Riverbend Park Boating and the Jonathan Dickinson Run.
The Cypress Canopy tour takes paddlers on a three- to four-hour trip down the Loxahatchee River. This paddle will have canoers going with and against the current, starting and ending at the Riverbend Park Canoe launch. Either head to the Master Dam and back, a 2.5-mile round-trip, or paddle a little farther downstream to the Turnpike overpass and pull a U-turn—a 3.5-mile round-trip.
- Rental kayaks cost $26.50 for a half day, $37 for a full day; canoes and double kayaks cost $32 for a half day, $42.50 for a full day.
- For more information, visit canoeoutfittersofflorida.com/cypresscanopy.
The Secret of Riverbend Park Boating tour takes explorers upriver on a 5.5-mile loop tour of the park's lakes, ponds, marshland and cypress swamp as well as a stretch of the old Loxahatchee River. With little to no current, this is the perfect place for beginners and kids. Begin at the Riverbend Park canoe launch, heading south toward the Picnic Loop and Picnic Island. From there, the blue trail heads into marsh that leads into West Lake, a great fishing spot that feeds into a small stream dubbed Hunters Run. After a short paddle, the run opens into the South Pond—a large, open marsh where gators, turtles and birds roam—and later to Little Pond, the spot for otter watching. Beyond, Cow Pen Lake leads to the East Slough Run, a primordial stretch that feeds into the watershed. Deer and gator are spotted just about everywhere along the run. Along Gator Slough Run, look for baby gators in the spring clinging to logs, rocks and even their mother's snout. The Old River Run, the inlet and outlet of this five-plus-mile loop, has just recently been opened to the public for paddling and is a great way to experience the river without the cross-current paddle.
- Rental kayaks cost $26.50 for a half day, $37 for a full day; canoes and double kayaks cost $32 for a half day, $42.50 for a full day.
- Open year round. Water levels may affect navigability. Call 561-746-7053 to check conditions.
- For more information, visit canoeoutfittersofflorida.com/riverbendboating.
For paddlers looking for a little adventure, take the Jonathan Dickinson Run. This is a longer trek, tackling 8.5 miles of the Loxahatchee for a five- to seven-hour paddle. Starting at Riverbend Park before 10 a.m., explorers will make their way downstream over the two dams, past the turnpike and onwards to Jonathan Dickinson State Park. Along the way, make a pit stop at Trapper Nelson's cabin and homestead as the river and cypress swamp gives way to brackish mangrove estuary, where manatee can be spotted cruising along with canoes and osprey spy the water from above. Return transportation to Riverbend Park from Jonathan Dickinson leaves at 4 p.m.
- Available on Saturday and Sunday between September and May. Reservations are highly recommended. To RSVP, call 561-746-7053.
- Kayak rentals cost $52; canoes/double kayak cost $62; three-person canoes cost $74.
- For more information, visit canoeoutfittersofflorida.com/jonathandickinson.
Paddle Tip: Plenty of bugs call the Loxahatchee River home, so a can of bug repellant goes a long way. Also, because there are so many flying critters, spiders are in abundance, creating spans across the river that dip low enough to stir some serious heebie-jeebies. To avoid getting a face-full of web, launch the canoe around 10 a.m., that way all the early risers will have already cleared a path. Seriously, there are a lot of spiders.

The women were part of a group of 18 volunteers who travelled to Tanzania, Africa, working with the students of Kikatiti Secondary School outside of Arusha for about 16 days. The school population is about 847 youngsters ranging in age from 12 to 18. The group did 650 eye exams of students, teachers and villagers. They dispensed about 300 pair of used glasses and brought home another 200-plus prescriptions to be filled. Thomas instructed students about dental health, and the group gave out about 1,000 tooth brushes.
The group also brought 18 bins full of medical supplies to Tanzania. Some supplies went to the school and most went to a doctor the group visited in the bush who is serving the Maasi people and to a doctor who started a program called FAME. This doctor has built a clinic/24-bed hospital in the mountains serving many villages.
The group also met with two groups of women who are "women working to help women." One group does basket work and the other is Maasi women doing native bead work. The volunteers brought back as many items as they could carry to help them, as well as to spread the word about women helping women no matter where in the world.
Dr. Laurel Gamm
Dr. Laurel Gamm worked for six months in 2012 for Doctors Without Borders, serving as a pediatric hospitalist in Carnot, Central African Republic, one of the least developed countries in the world. She oversaw a ward of 45 (overflowing) beds with children sick with malaria, respiratory and intestinal illnesses, tetanus, malnutrition and other illnesses rare in the United States. Her mission was to improve the care of children under the age of five in a country where one in five children do not live past that age.
Dr. Ellen Vancura
Dr. Ellen Vancura studied Spanish during five educational courses in Latin America so that she would be knowledgeable of her patients' needs during three trips to impoverished areas. She travelled to a remote area of the Dominican Republic with medical students from Creighton University, mentoring these doctors and serving Dominican people who otherwise would not have had medical care. She also provided medical care at the hospital in San Lucas, Guatemala, working at the outpatient department there.
Hazel Mickelson
Hazel Mickelson was a registered nurse who served in the Army during World War II. Following the bloody separation of Bangladesh from India, the country faced crises and a void in medical care. With her daughter, Kristen, who was then a teenager, she managed a clinic for the most severely ill and impoverished babies, feeding them and providing basic medical care.
Marlys Zetah, Monica Mueller, Judy Kastman
Marlys Zetah, Monica Mueller and Judy Kastman volunteered following the storm Sandy as part of a Red Cross disaster relief program. They left Nov. 24 and returned Dec. 8, 2012. All are registered nurses and worked 12-hour days with one day off. They were based in Manhattan and served in the surrounding areas.
This was Mueller's and Kastman's first experience of this kind. It was the fifth time for Zetah. Twice she worked in New Orleans in shelters after Katrina. She also took medical supplies and went house to house after a tornado and a flood in the South. Zetah mentored Mueller and Kastman.
They did follow-up and comfort care, blood pressure checks and referrals of sick or in need of mental health care.
Tickets for the luncheon are $12 and can be reserved by calling the Brown County Historical Society at 507-233-2616. Please reserve by March 12.

Skip to comments.Why I am not having kids (Addle-brained Lefty Alert)
Posted on 02/02/2013 8:03:59 AM PST by tom h
My husband and I choose to be childless in Seattle, writes editorial columnist Sharon Pian Chan
My husband and I just ended our debate about having children. To breed or not to breed, this was the question...
We have decided we have other things to give to the world. We wont be having kids. We choose to be childless in Seattle. ...
Feminism empowered women to talk about motherhood as a pursuit that deserves as much attention as mens work. In the past 20 years, women have bravely spoken about struggles to conceive, which helped educate a generation about fertility. But society rarely hears from women who decide not to have kids.
Do you have children? My friends standard answer is, No, and its not for medical reasons. Im cribbing it.
Will I regret it?
Probably sometimes. Just like parents sometimes regret their choice.
Would I have to sacrifice my career goals if we had a child? Probably. Ive gone from believing I can do it all to believing that life is short. Saying no to some things allows me to say yes to others.
My husband could be the primary caregiver while I charge after my goals, but then he would have to say no to some of his goals.
Am I being selfish if I don't have children?
Im selfish for not committing to my hypothetical childs well-being. But I will have a lot more attention and money to shower on real-life nieces, nephews, mentees and philanthropic causes.
Also, not having a child is the most important thing I could do to reduce my carbon footprint, according to a 2009 study by Oregon State University statisticians. ...
(Excerpt) Read more at seattletimes.com ...
On behalf of humanity, may I say, "Thank you."
Its great starting off the day with some good news.
Naively helping humanity by not breeding more into this liberal utopian dogma.
her choice, I will say this, there is no love to touch that of a mother for her child and there is no misery so complete as your child suffering the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, and furthermore, your child has the ability to enhance your life or wreck your life
My children have been blessings to me, especially as life events occur, and I get older.
And don't even get my started on my grandchildren. Blessings, all.
"Just like parents sometimes regret their choice".
Perhaps, I hang out with different types of people but I have NOT met one parent yet that regrets having a child. Could they regret not pushing Bobby more when he wanted to drop piano? Sure... but I have never met one parent(s) that regretted bringing Bobby into the world. My paternal Grandmother had a saying: you are a couple and will always be a couple until you have (adopt) a child. A child makes you a family. Otherwise, you will live your life as a couple. The older I get, the more I realize that my matriarchal Irish Grandma was wise!
"Also, not having a child is the most important thing I could do to reduce my carbon footprint, according to a 2009 study by Oregon State University statisticians"
Wow, And who is the recipient that she is concerned about To live in the world with less carbon? Children of the religious people? In any case, thank you lady for your contribution.
Why are they not having kids?
Because God says you should.
That's the nub of it.
Why is she still living? After all the "internal insight" of the planets health and the welfare of humans, her career goals....it should be clear that she is contributing the downfall of the universe with her presence.....she might want to explore a big bottle of sleeping pills with a pint of vodka taken at all once.
I would make one observation...without knowing much on the lady....that she has lived her entire life in a metropolitan area. I doubt that she's ever gone on a road tour across Iowa, or sat in a humble small-town cafe in Tennessee, or watched a kid's softball game in July.
Her parents should have made the same contribution.
What a weird turn of phrase!
I'll call that a good start!
Her moral self-righteousness is typical of many liberals.
They remind me of a giant squid squirting its ink, indiscrimanently and in all directions.
And what if you had, Mom? Does that mean you wouldn't get old and eventually die?
Yep. Every liittle bit helps.
"To breed or not to breed, this was the question."
How appropriate that choice of words are. I have never thought of having and raising moral, responsible, motivated children as "breeding".
yeah she could further "reduce" her stupid "carbon footprint" if she wasn't around either.........what lunacy
I'll bet the husband looks like the guy claiming to be a French model in the State Farm commercial. I'll be he is equipped with hipster black frame glasses, a man purse, and sandals..
The Lord works in mysterious ways.
Also, not having a child is the most important thing I could do to reduce my carbon footprintSucker!
Pass this article on to all of your liberal friends!
Psst...sweetie....ten bucks says that your little fella is "out" within a month of your piece having been published.
Your point is spot-on. Also, "breeding" and "breeders" are derogatory words used by many homosexuals when discussing traditional marriage.
Well, if this tripe is the "other things" she has to give the world, then she should give the world the pleasure of her silence.
And *I'll* bet that,in his dreams,the husband looks like the creature in the middle.
This is really good news...
The fewer Leftards breeding the better...
Factor in abortion and homosexuality, and the Libs will make themselves extinct...
There is one more step but she's just too selfish to take it.
May Father Darwin smile down upon them.
If see really wants to reduce her carbon foot print she can stop exhaling carbon dioxide.
It leaves more room for us and our kids.
We will out breed them eventually. :D
When she is in the Nursing Home she will probably enjoy watching the others there being seen by their children, and she gets no company at all.
She can always leave everything to her cat.
What a sad pathetic being.
Although, I should prolly be happy she's not breeding.
Thank you for not breeding. Now, do us a favor and urge all your fellow liberals to follow your example.
And I'll get back to you on voluntary euthanasia so we can keep the Earth green and pristine. . .
(This is like shooting fish in a barrel. . . . [evil grin] )
Lefties refusing to breed. Its a good thing.
"When she is in the Nursing Home she will probably enjoy watching the others there being seen by their children, and she gets no company at all."
She'd better learn Spanish, too; they are the ones filling the void where her children would be.
Good riddance to these creatures.
It is not a "man purse" if it contains a 9mm or a .38S&W.
An address to send a bullet is needed.
What a weird turn of phrase!
I suppose she thinks she is being clever in invoking "To be or not to be" in that soliloquy from Hamlet.
I, for one, am grateful when the lefties choose not to reproduce.
In all fairness, and despite how it is rationalized, the truth is that many people naturally realize that they just do not have it in them to reproduce and raise children. Many don't even have enough zip to marry or even have sex.
To even try to marry and make children would injure or kill them, and their children would neither be healthy or happy, and would not, could not, live good lives.
It's nobody's fault, just biology, and the only two questions it creates are what percentage of our population are designed to be able to breed and what percentage isn't; and is there some niche the non-breeders could occupy where they can help, not hurt, society as a whole.
Going back a step, there may be a good biological reasons for children to be born that are not intended to breed themselves.
One suggestion is that the first offspring gets many more dominant genes, and subsequent offspring get fewer dominant and more recessive genes. This makes sense, because more dominant genes would generally make someone stronger and healthier, but could backfire and not work, so the subsequent offspring's recessive genes might fill the gap if the first one dies off or fails.
This might be somewhat confirmed by noticing that the more older siblings a child has, the more likely they will be a homosexual. And though it has never been studied as such, homosexuals also tend to have far more physical and psychological problems, unrelated to their sexuality.
Have met several liberals like that here in the past year. They hate kids and they're open about it, and they're not having them.
Whatever. They can do what they want with their lives ...but hush up already with degrading children and parents who DO choose to have children. They should just do their thing and keep their big mouths shut.
I really don't care what these druids do with their lives. Just leave me and MY happy family alone!!!
That's the influence of feminism and homosexual activists. They consider anyone who has kids as a 'breeder', and they're ruining the planet. Whatever. As long as they don't have kids, it will be OUR kids who will be making decisions for them when they're old and grey. Those 'anti-breeders' won't realize just how fortunate they are.

The original Microsoft Zune music players have not become as popular as Apple iPod or some other players from companies like Creative Technology or Sandisk. Therefore, their discontinuance will hardly upset anyone, except hardcore music fans.
Microsoft Corp. will discontinue its classic Zune music players as soon as it releases its new-generation Zune HD devices, according to a media report. Flash-based first-generation Zune players will hardly be missed, but discontinuance of high-capacity hard disk drive-based Zune may be a negative news for those music fans, who like to carry extremely large music and video libraries with themselves.
According to WinSuperSite web-site, which publishes official and semi-official information from Microsoft, current Zune models with 8GB, 16GB, 80GB and 120GB capacities will be discontinued shortly. As a result, only Zune HD 16GB and Zune HD 32GB versions will be available, the web-site indicated citing officials for Microsoft's Zune group.
Microsoft Zune HD will be available starting September 15, 2009, in the U.S.

Gold defeats Worthington, advances to state
NEW ULM – Jacob Gieseke's sacrifice fly to right field with one out in the bottom of the ninth scored Tanner Kluis from third and lifted New Ulm Legion Gold to a 5-4 win over Worthington Sunday afternoon at Johnson Park to capture the first Sub-State 2 Championship.
Jordan Guggisberg got the pitching win for New Ulm. The righthander went the distance and allowed four runs on six hits. He struck out five.
Logan Rogers took the season-ending loss for Worthington (17-6). He pitched the ninth inning in relief of starter Lucas Henning, who ran out of innings in the tournament. He allowed 10 hits and fanned six.
Blake Rogers and Tyler Hattermann each had two hits for Post 5.
Drew Pfaff paced Gold's offense with four hits and two runs scored. Tim Kehren and Gieseke each had three hits for New Ulm.
New Ulm Gold, 25-7 on the season, now advances to the Minnesota State American Legion Baseball Tournament. They will play 10 a.m. Friday in Richfield at the high school field against the Sub-State 1 winner. Sub-State 1 finals were delayed until today by rain.
Sunday's championship game forced Gold to overcome Worthington leads of 1-0, 3-1 and 4-1 early in the game and eventually earn the win.
"In the beginning I do not believe that we played real sharp," said Gold coach Bob Weier. "Jordan was not sharp. We did not play real sharp, and we did not hit the ball until the fourth inning. Then we started to hit the ball."
Worthington took a 1-0 lead in the top of the first when Aaron Pavelko walked and scored on a RBI double from Blake Rogers.
Gold knotted the contest in the bottom of the second when Pfaff collected the first of his four hits with a base hit to left field. Gieseke singled him to second and Guggisberg followed by reaching on an error to load the bases.
Tim Kehren then coaxed a walk to force in Pfaff to tie the game.
But Post 5 scored twice in the third on a Lucas Henning two-run double to take a 3-1 lead before making it a 4-1 game in the fourth on New Ulm's only error of the game.
That run would be the last one allowed by Guggisberg. He scattered three harmless singles in the final five innings.
"Jordan did not have his best stuff," said Weier. "But he started to hit his stride.He started to show his command and was very effective. My biggest concern was his pitch count (130 for the game.)"
Gold picked away at the lead.
In the bottom of the fourth Gieseke singled and went to second on a sacrifice bunt from Nick Dewanz.He raced home on a bloop single to right field by Guggisberg. Kehren and Brach Kraus both reached on consecutive errors from Post 5 shortstop Logan Rogers that loaded the bases. Meyer's walk forced in Gieseke to cut the lead to 4-3.
Pfaff's second hit of the game to lead off the fifth inning resulted in a run. Gieseke followed with a base hit before Pfaff scored on a two-out double off the bat of Kehren that tied the game at 4-4.
Gold pieced together the game-winning rally in the bottom of the ninth when Tanner Kluis walked and went to third on Pfaff's fourth hit of the game.
"This is a compliment, but he is streaky hitter, "Weier said about Pfaff. "He can go 0-for-7 but then go 4-for-4. … When he hits the ball, he hits it solid. He had a great at-bat in the ninth inning."
"This is three years in a row for me," said Pfaff about winning the last two District Two titles and now a Sub-State 2 crown. "It is nice to go back again. Their pitcher (Henning) is a Minnesota State-Mankato redshirt, and he was tough. We got some chances, and we finally pulled through in the ninth."

This group, at times, can be a good example at how distorted internet microcosms can make uncommon opinions seem much more accepted. In this community, using midwives and having a home birth comes up in almost every thread, it seems. I have seen using a midwife treated like a hipster fashion choice recently on Jezebel and other sites. However, midwife attended births still make up less than 10% of births in the United States. Hardly a huge trend. Midwives are underutilized here compared to many other countries with better maternity and neonatal outcomes than we have. But, depending on your source, midwife attended and/or out of hospital births may seem to be common or even a glorified standard. However, in the circles I travel in my daily grind as a physician, choosing out of hospital birth is fringe, reckless behavior.
So, it's like entering a portal in another world when I participate on a thread in the VBAC group, and the commenters have a heated argument about epidurals, and many participants did not get one. On our labor and delivery floor, it is a rare to never occurrence that someone wouldn't get one. Because out of hospital birth, choosing not to have an epidural even if you deliver in a hospital, and VBAC are such rarely available, rarely supported choices, I am usually on the side of defending people who advocate for such choices as underdogs, not the holier than thou bullies that many paint them to be.
It's also a really strange place for me to be in when I gently try to correct medical inaccuracies, and I sometimes get painted as a brainwashed surgico-technocrat physician. I correct fellow physicians when they say all VBAC is dangerous. For real, even my attending physicians. I also have corrected fellow physicians who state episiotomies are preferable to tearing. But, I also correct women in the VBAC group who state things that are medically inaccurate, like that worsening hypertension in pregnancy is not serious and does not warrant an induction or cesarean unless the fetus is in distress, or that leaving the hospital midlabor is a reasonable course of action if one is faced with unwanted interventions (in one particular thread in which I was painted as a typical brainwashed South Florida cesarean happy physician, the intervention that warranted attempting to leave midlabor was continuous external monitoring).
These are not the majority opinions even in this microcosm. But, they are often aggressively defended positions. One that has come up repeatedly, recently, is an insistence that tubal ligation is linked to "post tubal ligation syndrome", which leads, according to some posters, to the majority of women needing hormonal interventions to control heavy menstrual bleeding, and / or hysterectomy to control intractable post procedure pain.
I think these communities are incredibly valuable, not just because of the sharing of strictly evidence based facts. I think a lot, even the majority of the benefit is the support and stories from other women who have experienced similar choices and situations, or share similar priorities and stories. I think in the VBAC community, and in pregnancy and mothering as a whole, there is so much value to support, empathy and stories. However, there is a big difference between asnwering an original poster who says "what was your experience with tubal ligation?" and someone answering "geez, I had pain and menstrual irregularity after" and an original poster saying "I am planning on a tubal ligation" and a slew of commenters saying "NO! This is PROVEN to cause a, b and c horrible side effects to the majority of women who get it!" and usually a touch of "Have you considered Natural Family Planning?"
I have reluctantly been the heavy in many of these conversations, but it is triggering a bunch of pet peeves of mine. 1. Medical inaccuracies masquerading as facts. 2. Ignoring the expressed informed choice and priorities of the woman posting and substituting the commenters' own priorities and (often faulty or anecdotal at best) information
So, this coalesced into a recent thread, and here is the reply I posted:
"This is the best article I have found on post tubal ligation syndrome:
It is a good article because it compares women who have had tubals with women whose partners have had vasectomies. It is also a good study because it has an N number of over 9,000 subjects who had the tubal ligation. It is also authored by a group from the Centers of Disease Control (the CDC). There is no economic conflict, and the New England Journal of Medicine is about as high quality a publication as it gets. Here are the results:
"The original concern about sterilization involved the risk of heavy bleeding and intermenstrual bleeding, but we found no evidence of either problem. Furthermore, we found that women who underwent sterilization were likely to have decreases in the amount of bleeding, the number of days of bleeding, and the amount of menstrual pain and an increase in cycle irregularity. We know of no biologic explanation for these changes, most of which were beneficial, in women after tubal ligation."
I don't think there's any evidence of widespread issues post tubal. In fact, this high quality study seems to indicate the opposite. I am not saying a tubal ligation is right for everybody, but I do think it is inappropriate for every thread on here in which tubal ligation is mentioned to devolve into a pronouncement that tubals are PROVEN to cause these problems, often with alarming figures like half of all women who get tubals end up with hysterectomies, etc.
As I have also said, it is inappropriate at best and borderline bullying at worst for women on here to disregard a woman's stated informed choice and substitute their own priorities, especially if they are coming from a place of anecdote and questionable information. It is also inappropriate to ignore a woman's expressed desire for a highly effective form of birth control (like a tubal or IUD) and to tell them to try NFP* instead, when it has a typical failure rate much higher. I hold a woman's right to make informed decisions about her reproduction to include highly effective birth control if desired as well as safe options for trial of labor after cesarean.
I am not a surgery lovin' medicoindustrial defending brainwashed doctor. I trained as a midwife, had both of my kids unmedicated** with midwives, and have never used hormonal birth control myself due to my own priorities and reasons. I support low intervention birth and VBAC for two main reasons which may seem contradictory, but are wonderfully not. 1. It's a woman-centered approach and 2. It is an evidence based approach. Bullying women into avoiding their choice of safe contraception is neither."
*I love this site for comparison of contraceptive methods: http://www.birth-control-comparison.info/
**The first labor was augmented with pitocin without my informed consent, but was otherwise unmedicated
