To the Editor:
—Year after year the medical profession of New York has been called on to oppose the passage of laws creating state examining boards in osteopathy, dermapathy, optometry and so on. Year after year we have succeeded in convincing the legislature that the passage of such laws would be unwise, but, in answer to the inquiries of senators and assemblymen, "What are you going to do with these people who besiege us each year?" we have answered, "Let them comply with the present law and then practice any method they choose." Then has come the second pertinent query, "The homeopaths have a separate board, why should not the osteopaths be granted the same privilege if they will comply with all the requirements excepting treatment?"As the result of all this a bill has been drawn up, which is endorsed

Author has written 7 stories for Glee, General Hospital, Twilight, and True Blood.
Hi Everyone,
I guess if your reading this you must want to know a little bit about me. Basically I only started writing fiction a year ago, so forgive me if my grammer a is rusty I haven't had an English class since college. I'm 37 years old (which yes I know makes me an old lady compared to some of the other authors here). I have been married for 9 years and have a 7 year old son and a 3 year old daughter. Confession time, yes I goof off at work to read and post, just don't tell and no one will be the wiser.
I love it when people review my chapters and welcome all feed back good and bad. Feel free to PM me as well.


text:
I originally posted this assessment on Red Team Journal in January 2003, just prior to the invasion of Iraq. I'm re-posting it now because the invasion remains an open issue, one whose effects are certain to ripple outward politically, militarily, and diplomatically for years to come. I am, of course, pleased that the administration and the Pentagon revisited their Iraq strategy and that violence in Iraq has declined.1 That said, we have no guarantees, particularly in a world that looks very different than it did in 2003 and will no doubt look even more different in 2013.
Time will judge the wisdom of the Bush administration's push toward war with Iraq. In the meantime, the process of mobilizing support for the effort has exposed three related questions, each worrisome in its own way.
First, are we trying to solve the problem at the most appropriate level? Second, do we understand the problems we might create by solving the one we've defined? And third, do we understand how the defined problem relates to other potential problems? At stake are the larger questions of how and when America goes to war and what burden of public proof our government should bear when committing the people's blood and treasure.
The Right Problem?
Before we go to war, we should be quite sure we've defined the problem at the most appropriate level. It is possible that by acting on the most immediate, apparent, or accessible problem, we foreclose the option of solving a broader problem more effectively. Public discourse has limited itself to the problem as the administration has chosen to define it, and the administration has defined it too narrowly.
Yes, Iraqi weapons of mass destruction are indeed a concern, but as North Korea has reminded us, the problem is much bigger than Iraq. The problem is also bigger than any specific nation; it includes the closely related issue of our own vulnerabilities–porous borders, inadequate intelligence, an overstretched medical infrastructure, and so on.
One way to test the administration's approach is to ask how we might better spend the money we will consume fighting Iraq. One conservative estimate sets the cost of war at $100 billion, roughly one-third our total annual defense budget and more than double the annual budget of the nascent Department of Homeland Security. More cautious observers estimate a long-term price tag in the trillions. If we define the problem not as defeating Iraq but–more broadly–as defending the United States from attack, how might we choose to spend this $100 billion?
The menu of options is long and quite attractive: better border security, better intelligence, better tracking and surveillance systems, better transportation security, better missile defense, enhanced special forces, and on and on. Of course, $100 billion won't buy it all, but it's interesting to note that given the clear option, we might not choose to spend our money on Iraq at all.
The Problems after Next
Assume we attack and defeat Iraq. What then? The administration proposes to rebuild Iraq's polity along democratic lines, a fundamental misunderstanding of democracy at best, an irreversible Pandora's box at worst. Setting that aside, let's weigh two additional relatively straightforward problems after next. Consider first a problem Red Team Journal outlined in 1999: every adversary watches for opportunities to take advantage of us while we are looking elsewhere. North Korea's current rumblings hint at such a strategy. Our other likely adversaries are no doubt thinking the same thing and will discover even more opportunities if we become entangled with Iraq and North Korea at the same time. This should not surprise us–we should expect it.
Another problem after next is the slippery cost slope. We should remember that (1) our war chest is not bottomless, and (2) these things always cost more and take longer than we expect. We've been in Afghanistan for over a year now, and it is unlikely that anyone in the government would hazard a guess at the full life cycle cost of the operation. An ongoing operation in Iraq will suffer from similar open-ended uncertainty. Of course, that alone is not a reason not to attack Iraq, but it should cause us to ask how much we are willing to spend and how many such operations we can undertake.
It is simple to at least identify any number of problems after next, and we generally assume as a nation that the government has not only identified but also assessed the possible range of problems after next before moving ahead. In this case, however, evidence of foresight is slim. Wishful optimism appears to underlie the administration's postwar plan.
Systemic Problems
Every problem touches others, and few problems submit to simple cause-and-effect reasoning. The so-called war on terror, for example, touches the Iraq problem, just as the Iraq problem touches, among other things, our need for oil, our relations with China and Russia, and our current operation in Afghanistan. Costs, resources, will, perception, threats, risks–all combine to create an interwoven network of conflicting constraints and difficult tradeoffs. Most people understand this intuitively, although sophisticated analysis is required to untangle a network with any confidence.
Perhaps the most evident lack of systems thinking resides in how we perceive the problem itself. During the Cold War, for example, we understood that the conflict was as much a war of ideas as a war of missiles. In fact, one could argue that we won the war with ideas while our missiles thankfully rested in their silos. We also understood that a misstep in Asia meant trouble in Europe while a faux pas in Central America could spell disaster on the home front. Significantly, our Cold War toolkit reflected this understanding. While our military forces stood ready, we employed–and employed well–a wide range of tools short of war: surveillance, intelligence (human and technical), espionage, psychological operations, alliances, and diplomacy.
Today, our toolkit has dwindled to a single hammer– military force–and the tools we once employed so effectively as a suite now exist largely to support this force. We are simply not equipped to deal with the problem as a system; we don't understand it as one, and any capability for subtlety or stratagem we achieved during the Cold War has atrophied.
The Burden of Proof
The administration's case continues to rest on (1) the fact that Iraq (most likely) possesses weapons of mass destruction and (2) the possibility that Iraq will use these weapons or share them with terrorists. As many observers have noted, however, other nations already possess weapons of mass destruction and may in fact have already shared them with terrorists. Hence the questions "Why Iraq?" and "Why now?" The administration has still not answered these questions clearly and forcefully.
Assume that attacking Iraq now is the best decision. Assume that the administration possesses evidence of a clear and immediate threat. Assume as well that this information is classified and cannot be shared with the American people. This still begs the question of how an administration should publicly justify its decision to go to war. Note here that the administration's new preemptive doctrine already pushes us into uncertain and increasingly subjective territory. By not strengthening its case for war, the administration leads us even further into this region; after all, a preemptive attack should require greater proof, not less, or–if absolute necessity demands–we should attack without warning and justify the action with undeniable evidence after the fact.
At the very least the administration must explain (1) how attacking Iraq solves the real problem at the right level, (2) how it will handle the inevitable problems after next in Iraq, and (3) how it will handle the problems and issues that will ripple through the entire global network of problems when we attack. But even this, while necessary, is not sufficient.
If we go to war with Iraq we must be able to explain–now and tomorrow–why we chose not to attack North Korea or Iran or Libya or any other nation that potentially falls within the administration's current justification for war with Iraq. In other words, we must justify the war with consistent principles. Consistent principles not only stand on their own, they are also worth a great deal in the eyes of the world. Even when our friends and enemies disagree with our actions, they will generally (if grudgingly) respect our commitment to principles.
In no way does this mean we should throw pragmatism to the wind; on the contrary, we should aim to achieve a higher measure of pragmatism, one that guides and justifies all of our actions at all levels. Parents–models of real-world pragmatism–know well the value of consistency rooted in principle. Our decision to go to war can rest on nothing less.
The world is watching, and like our own children, it will resent and remember what it perceives as arbitrary action, particularly when we impose the action with overwhelming force.2

Carrillo represents one of the surer bets to perform at a high level in the major leagues. He has some mechanical issues that will need to be worked out to prevent future injuries but his ability to command his fastball combined with off-speed pitches he can throw for strikes separates him from the pack.
2. Cedric Hunter – OF
Fresh out of high school Hunter earned Arizona Rookie League MVP honors and followed that up with MVP honors at the Padres' Instructional League. The outfielder has very little movement in his swing and keeps his bat through the hitting zone for as long as possible in order to hit the ball with authority. Those questioning his speed in the outfield haven't seen him play.
3. Chase Headley – 3B
An instinctive player that strives to be the best, Headley is a gamer. He is the best defensive third baseman in the system and his strike zone discipline and gap power make his future potential a potent combo. Headley uses the entire field to hit but at some point will likely have to abandon his switch-hitting ways to focus on one swing instead of two. He is still growing into his frame and his power should increase.
4. Will Venable - OF
Venable is a five-tool talent that put it altogether this season. While he is still learning the game, his ceiling is unparalleled – even after an impressive campaign in Fort Wayne. Venable continued to improve throughout the year and his power numbers should blossom in the coming year – making him a scary package.
5. Paul McAnulty – 1B/3B/OF
See Mac at the plate. See Mac hit. He has done nothing but put the ball in play since entering the system and remains a hard worker who is focused on the prize. McAnulty uses the whole field and has a firm understanding of the strike zone. His athleticism is often underrated in the field and if he can learn to play third base effectively his value will increase.
6. Kyle Blanks – 1B
The towering first baseman suffered a strange injury that ended a promising season, an infection in his leg. What Blanks did during the year was hit the ball with authority to all parts of the field. Blanks became adept at making the small adjustments at the plate to continue scattering hits. His power potential projects to 80 on the traditional 20-80 scale used by scouts.
7. Mike Ekstrom – RHP
A complete pitcher that understands the game and has a plan of attack going in, Ekstrom mixes his pitches well and keeps the ball down in the zone. The right-hander mixes three pitches and works to contact, inducing as many ground balls as he can. He will have to improve his stamina moving forward to make it through the long season.
8. Chad Huffman - OF
Having never played in the outfield before, Huffman excelled, showing off his athleticism and instincts. The position move never detracted from his play at the plate, as he displayed patience and power. He has a level swing and the ball carries well off his stick as he squares up the ball. Even his outs were hard hit.
9. Nick Hundley - C
Oftentimes, catchers are defined by their work behind the dish with the bat simply a bonus. Hundley is a vocal leader with his pitching staff and is adept at blocking balls and putting in the extra study time. He has improved his footwork and exchange but will have to work on a consistent release. His bat remains a potent force. He has an advanced eye and projectable power. He is in line as the catcher of the future and many believed he had surpassed George Kottaras, making the trade an easier one to make.
10. Sean Thompson – LHP
This may have been the year that Thompson matured from emotional competitor to fiery calmness. Armed with above average off-speed pitches, Thompson's greatest challenge was mastery of his fastball. As the year progressed, his confidence grew and his fastball command made tremendous strides. When he is on, he is nearly unhittable. Thompson must continue to mature as he is adversely affected when runs cross the plate and sometimes when a hitter simply reaches base. Curtailing that while keeping the fiery demeanor is key.
11. David Freese – 3B
His propensity to drive the ball to the opposite field and ability to perform in the clutch made Freese a steal out of this year's draft. He is aggressive at the dish and is working on improving his pitch selection by seeing more pitches and drawing more walks, a feat he accomplished in the Instructional League. With his all around game at the plate he could challenge Headley moving forward. Freese was knocked for his defensive play but proved to be sure-handed with an accurate arm. His footwork and balance are steadily improving.
12. Aaron Breit – RHP
His velocity dipped slightly this year but Breit will sit 91-93 and can hit 95. He also has a good curveball, which he uses as a strikeout pitch. Having never thrown a changeup before, Breit is still toying with it in an effort to slow it down yet keep his arm speed consistent with his fastball. As that pitch improves so will Breit. The right-hander was able to spot his pitches better out of the stretch and will need to work on refining his delivery from the windup.
13. Jared Wells - RHP
Armed with a solid fastball and developing secondary pitches, Wells has the ability to dominate. When he trusts his changeup his game takes on an added dimension. He does, however, let outside forces affect him, such as the play of his defense. He was also wild up in the zone this year, something that will need correction to be effective. And he can be hardheaded at times. If he can continue to be open to learning and doesn't abandon his off-speed pitches, Wells has a bright future.
14. Luis Cruz – SS
There is no better defensive player on the infield than Luis Cruz. Whether it is third base, second, or shortstop, Cruz is adept and sure-handed. His bat returned to the form of 2004 when he was smoking line drives in the gaps. He has the power to hit the ball out but his success will be measured by his ability to continue hitting the gaps with better pitch selection. Cruz tapered off as the season progressed, as he allowed the pressure of his performance to negatively impact his game.
15. Matt Antonelli – 2B/3B
An on base machine with decent speed to match, Antonelli profiles better as a second baseman or outfielder than a third baseman – and he saw a lot of action at second in the Instructional League. It isn't that he lacks the athleticism, but the lack of power is a detractor. Antonelli has one of the best eyes in the system and will take a pitch until he gets one he can handle. His speed on the basepaths will be an asset as he learns the nuances of the running game but he must work on his first step quickness.
16. Cesar Ramos – LHP
There are pitchers with better stuff than Ramos but not as many are safer bets to reach their potential. He doesn't throw hard but has a plus curveball and plus changeup to go with uncanny control. His fastball command has improved to the point where he can spot it well and setup the hitters with his ability to move in and out and up and down.
17. Yefri Carvajal - OF
It will not surprise us if Carvajal is sitting atop this list one day soon. He has all of the tools necessary and a bat that will one day strike fear into every opponent. A hand injury curtailed his first year playing and he will work on his balance at the plate but Carvajal can use the whole field to hit and has great hand speed and bat control that is conducive to line drives. The ball has always sounded different when it hits his bat.
18. Drew Miller - RHP
A power right-hander who can hit 95 on the radar gun, Miller is still learning how to pitch. He is still developing his curveball but his changeup has good drop, although it will come in, at times, a little too hard. Very efficient in pitching to contact and working under the Padres mantra of ten pitches or less in an inning, Miller must keep his arm slot consistent, as his release point will vary. His upside is phenomenal.
19. Neil Jamison - RHP
The strength of this reliever's game is in his ability to pepper the strike zone from all angles. He spots his pitches at will and uses two different sliders that are equally effective. His fastball command is the separator. Jamison's mental toughness was evident throughout the year as he worked on keeping the ball down in the zone, a requirement in the California League and something he did well. If he perfects his two-seam fastball and changeup for left-handers, Jamison could be nastier than he already is.
20. Nic Crosta - OF
There are few who possess his bat but there were holes he is working feverishly to correct. While the ball explodes off his bat he has a noticeable uppercut swing, which he got away with at the lower levels due to his tremendous bat speed. Thus, the ball makes a different sound when he connects. The problem has been that he pops too many balls up and the Padres would prefer he level out a little to take advantage of his ability to hit the ball square – the pop outs becoming screaming liners. His outfield defense needs improvement if he is ever to be considered a top prospect.
21. Craig Cooper – 1B
Easily the best defensive first baseman in the system, Cooper combines that with an excellent eye and tower power. He has an uppercut swing that will scare some but finds a way to get on top of the ball – shooting lasers into the outfield and more ground balls than one would believe. Some detractors think he doesn't have the power to continue to play first. We believe he does.
22. Felix Carrasco – 3B
Armed with big time raw power and emerging talent, Carrasco provides a glimpse of the type of talent coming from the Padres improved Latin American contingent. His potential is near the top of this list but he needs more seasoning all around. His defense was shaky this year but he made marked improvement in the Instructional League, coming up with a few eye-popping plays. Carrasco will have to learn better hand positioning as he cocks his bat to an unnatural hitting position. Moving his hands up will allow him to generate a more consistent swing when he moves up the ladder.
23. Luis Durango - OF
The fastest player in the system, Durango can change the game when he reaches base. Durango is a fantastic bunter and uses a slap, check-swing approach at the plate if the corner infielders are drawn in – almost Ichiro style as he leaves the batter's box on the swing. The outfielder also has a great eye at the plate and has been an on base machine early in his career. Durango is particularly good in his two-strike approach. His arm in the outfield isn't ideal and he is still learning outfield positioning and reads.
24. Kyler Burke - OF
For the first time perhaps ever, Burke struggled with his bat. His confidence wavered and he never got it on track throughout the year, putting undo pressure on himself in a lineup that collectively hit .290. He does, however, possess all the intangibles to be a top talent. Burke has a consistent swing and an unrelenting work ethic to go along with a great attitude to right the ship – and soon. He has too much talent not to. If he can stay back in his swing and maintain his balance Burke should see quick dividends.
25. Matt Buschmann - RHP
Taken in the 15th round, Matt Buschmann showed the poise of a player who has been around longer than a few months. The right-hander has a firm understanding of what it takes to succeed and the stuff to back it up. While his velocity was down this year, it may actually help him in the long run. Using a three-quarters arm slot, Buschmann gets good life on his pitches and works in his slider and a plus changeup effectively. He could move quickly through the system and the velocity should return with some time off.
26. Javis Diaz - OF
It is amazing to watch Diaz hit – because there are a few who wonder how he does it. Diaz has to take a huge backswing to get his hands in hitting position but quick wrists have allowed him to get away with it at the lower levels. Diaz is one of the best bunters in the organization and his plus speed is an asset at the top of the lineup. If he can continue to hit, and he has a propensity for putting the ball in play, he has the defensive aptitude to continue his ascent up the list.
27. Peter Ciofrone - OF
For a while no one was sure what position Ciofrone would play but it seems he has found a home in left field – a spot he progressed at through the year. Ciofrone waits for his pitch and can drive the ball, albeit with less power than other prospects. He is a hitter, however, and will continue to succeed. Will it be enough to be a run producer without the homers is the natural question?
28. Daryl Jones – 1B
Competitive, aggressive, and young. It is a great but deadly combination. Jones has all the tools to be an elite prospect but his drive can often lead to frustration when he experiences a downturn in his game – thus prolonged streaks, good and bad, have plagued him. He has big time power but remains raw in his approach at the plate. His age and ability could have him vault up the charts in the coming year.
29. John Hussey - RHP
With improved mechanics and a consistent delivery, Hussey was able to turn that into positive production. The result of his increase in fluidity was a velocity jump on his fastball, hitting 92 near the end of the year after sitting 84-88 a year ago. He is a very focused pitcher who works well with men on base, bearing down as the situation arises. Hussey will have to find the comfort zone of pitching from the windup; he sometimes muscles the ball instead of letting his body do the work.
30. Jose Oyervidez - RHP
Cut down the walks and Oyervidez would be near the top of the list. There are few who have the stuff he has. The opposition easily gets frustrated with him on the mound as his natural movement produces a lot of ground balls. He can be nasty with his four-pitch arsenal and is when he stays down in the zone and is hitting his spots. Oyervidez just doesn't do it often enough. Still, he has the potential to be very good with further tweaking.
31. Manny Ayala - RHP
A master of control, Ayala is adept at the critical first pitch strike to setup the rest of the at bat. He does hit too much of the plate occasionally and will need to learn when to get a hitter to chase. He has a plus changeup that he can throw with ease and use in any count but has trouble throwing his slider because he doesn't get full extension on the pitch. His delivery from the stretch isn't as consistent as how he works from the windup.
32. Sean Kazmar – 2B
A gifted second baseman with above average range and hands, Kazmar faced some struggles this year. Over the course of the year Kazmar worked on slowing down his hitting stance by diminishing his leg kick to allow him to stay back on the ball and the results paid off down the stretch. He has surprising pop for his size and is one of the better baserunners in the system, taking what he is given. He also has good strike zone judgment but will put himself into bad hitters' counts and then flail at pitches out of the zone. Kazmar is a player with a lot of potential and has proven to be clutch over the last several years.
33. John Madden - RHP
As dependable as they come, Madden has surprising control for a guy who can throw average heat from an almost side-arm motion. The ball has a natural run and when he raises his arm angle his fastball explodes into the mitt at 93-95 but most often he works at the lower arm slot. His slider became a go-to pitch that he counted heavily upon for strikeouts and hitters had a tough time diagnosing it from his release point. If he can develop a changeup to get left-handers out he could shoot up the list.
34. Yordany Ramirez - OF
If talent alone were the prerequisite for a prospect, Ramirez would be at the top of the list. He has a rare combination of speed, power and defensive ability that, if he shows all his attributes, can propel him to unimaginable heights. He is the best defensive outfielder in the system – a fantastic arm, great reads and range – and is a pleasure to watch at his craft. His bat has simply never caught up. Ramirez tries to do too much at the dish and his pitch selection has only improved this year. If he can get on base with regularity, his speed becomes a weapon. His future is tied to his bat ,as his defense alone would be top five in the majors today.
35. Steve Delabar - RHP
Walks were the nemesis of Delabar in 2006. The problem stemmed from mechanical changes he and the staff would try with him and if something didn't feel normal the right-hander would fall into bad habits. He improved his work against left-handed hitters with a slider that would pound the back foot of the hitter but wasn't aggressive enough in coming inside to righties and would become predictable in his pitch selection and his ball gets elevated when he tires. Cutting his walks in half will make him a nasty pitcher.
36. Leo Rosales - RHP
Overcoming slow starts must be an emphasis as he heads into 2007; he has come out of the gate slowly in each of the past three years. As the temperature rose so did Rosales' game. His control improved dramatically and he was able to work ahead in the count to setup his put-away pitch. He has a wipeout changeup that is among the best in the system and can dial it up to 92 on the radar gun. Rosales remains one of the better relief prospects in the system but a strong start will be pivotal to his future.
37. Tim Brown – 1B
A patient hitter that can spray the ball to all fields, Brown has a level swing in the John Olerud mode. The difference is he has the frame to be a bigger power threat if he can add a slight loop to his swing that will generate lift. The obvious fear is it will detract from his ability to hit line drives that find the gaps. Brown is a solid defender around the bag but does not have great range. Getting balance in his swing while not losing his effectiveness will be pivotal to Brown in the coming year.
38. Brent Carter - LHP
There are very few pitchers as cerebral as Carter. The left-hander understands the game and how to get hitters out and his control allows him to execute that plan. He has pinpoint accuracy with his fastball and changeup but his slider will need to become a go-to pitch to consistently get outs at the higher levels. He has the makeup and attitude to succeed.
39. Colt Morton - C
Shortening his swing has been a lengthy process for Colt Morton and it is something that has been tinkered with throughout his career. His ability to take what his coaches ask and apply it on the field gave him better balance as the year progressed and allowed him to use his strengths at the plate. Behind the dish, Morton is a savvy receiver that has been applauded for the way he calls a game. His footwork and release will always be a work in progress because of his frame but he puts in the work to make himself better. Swing consistency remains the key to his future and few have the type of power he generates.
40. Rayner Contreras - 2B
A temperamental player, Contreras doesn't respond well to be taken out of his element. Give him his comfort zone back and he performs. Contreras was as clutch as they come this season when placed in the two-hole after wallowing in despair in the bottom third of the lineup earlier in the year. Contreras does the little things right and can be effective playing small ball but has a big game mentality. As he fills into his frame and gets stronger he could see a power surge. Contreras uses the entire field and has good strike zone judgment. He must work on the mental side of the game and understand that slumps will occur to continue to improve.
41. Alfredo Fernandez - RHP
With a game built around confidence Fernandez can be fragile. When the mental part catches up to him he has a tendency to elevate his elbow and get erratic. But the right-hander has a great slider when he stays on top of it and an above average fastball that he spots well and he remained consistent throughout the year. He doesn't have the movement that others possess with his fastball and it is critical that his secondary pitches continue to be used effectively. One other issue that bears watching – his weight. He has a tendency to balloon in the off-season.
42. Orlando Lara - LHP
Currently, Lara has two solid pitches – a fastball and changeup – and is working on developing his curveball. He has struggled with gaining a feel for the hook but has no such trouble on the other side. He is able to play off the success of the heat and has some deception in his delivery that makes it hard for hitters to see, especially left-handed hitters who face the southpaw.
43. Wade LeBlanc - LHP
Working ahead in the count, LeBlanc kept the opposition on its toes by changing speeds. He has a plus changeup and throws variations of the change with a fastball he commands well. LeBlanc will waste pitches instead of attacking the zone and while it hasn't been a big issue it could haunt him down the road. He has a confidence in his game and is very calm on the mound, letting little affect him. He does have to work on his curveball with left-handers picking up the spin on his pitches better than expected.
44. Jackson Quezada - RHP
While mechanical problems remain an issue, Quezada has a loose, quick arm that dials it up to 94 MPH. He also has some deception in his delivery and hides the ball well, making it appear to explode out of his hand with late pop. At the same time, he looks like a machine cranking and the future health of his arm must be protected. His fastball has natural movement and he is a willing learner. Quezada could be a riser soon.
45. Pablo Menchaca - RHP
The right-hander out of Mexico is still learning to repeat his delivery but possesses a loose arm that generates a fastball in the low nineties. His mechanics will be paramount to his success as he uses his legs and torso to generate the power. Also on the menu is the first pitch strike. Menchaca tends to work behind in the count and while he has snaked through at the low levels it won't work at the higher ones.
46. Joakim Soria - RHP
A four-pitch arsenal along with an above average fastball has Soria on the rise. While he does not have much experience in the states, he is well versed in Mexico. He had Tommy John surgery and was released by the Dodgers but has regained his pre-surgery form over the last several months. He could be used as a starter down the road since he can twirl each pitch in his repertoire for strikes.
47. Rolando Valdez - RHP
A converted outfielder that has only been pitching for a few years, Valdez has a plus changeup and decent fastball but needs to be more consistent in the zone. He lets his front side open up and can get wild in the zone, which results in a higher fly ball count. But his delivery offers up some deception and the late run on his pitches creates a lot of missed balls, broken bats and poorly hit balls.
48. Vince Sinisi – 1B/OF
A full season of health was all Sinisi needed and he finally received it in 2006. A solid athlete who is competent in the outfield and at first base, Sinisi's best attribute remains his bat. Regaining confidence this past year, he sprayed the ball to all parts of the field and began to drive the ball out of the park. More at bats that allow him to find his rhythm could move Sinisi up the list and we believe the power will come soon but his age remains a negative on the prospect lists.
49. John Hudgins - RHP
Finally becoming comfortable with what he was being asked to do, Hudgins year was cut short by a strained right elbow and he missed out on the AFL as a result. He does not have overpowering stuff and improved his command by not trying to overthrow. He is an intelligent pitcher with a solid mound presence that prepares well. Hudgins is at his best when his curveball is working to supplement a fastball that tops out at 90 and an above average changeup. Right now, health is his main concern moving forward.
50. Josh Howard - OF
An exciting player that does all the little things right, Howard uses all of his available tools to reach base. He is above average in the speed department and is very aggressive in taking an extra base while having a good feel for when to attempt a steal. Howard is a solid outfielder but needs to improve on his reads in centerfield as he lacks the power for a corner outfielder. Howard does put too much pressure on himself with runners on base and finds himself chasing pitches out of the zone, uncharacteristic given his above average strike zone judgment.
51. Drew Macias - OF
One of the better defensive outfielders in the system, Macias is still growing into his body. His improvement this season came in using the whole field and he brings a measure of speed to the table that makes him intriguing. He needs to work the count effectively to get better pitches to drive and his swing must stay consistent as he packs on more pounds to drive the ball. He projects well as a future major leaguer.
52. Seth Johnston – 2B
Dropping his bat angle allowed Johnston to get to more balls and increased his ability to go the opposite way with the pitch. He battled through injuries on the season and never got the timing back from early in the year when he was raking. He has adequate range at second base but remains only average defensively. Johnston has the ability to hit for a high average and has some pop but his success is tied to his confidence. When he is riding high it is apparent in his demeanor.
53. Jon Ellis - RHP
Understanding the game is part of Ellis' vision. He doesn't have an overpowering fastball but commands three pitches well, including a split-fingered fastball that has good sink late and turns into a lot of ground ball outs. Ellis must work on being more effective against right-handed hitters.
54. Michael Johnson – 1B
Injuries continue to derail a promising career. Armed with a bat that produces more pop than the billboard charts, Johnson has the tools to be a major league first baseman. But his swing can't maintain its consistency when he is sitting on the sidelines. Johnson is a hard worker with tons of ability – if there were a player to believe will succeed he would be among the top contenders.
55. Richie Daigle - RHP
The former outfielder has a live arm with a lot of late movement that often finds itself missing bats. Daigle is, perhaps, the best pitcher in the organization at recording a first pitch strike, which is shocking given the amount of time he has spent on the mound. A self-motivator, Daigle has improved his slider over the last year and relies heavily on his changeup, throwing it in off counts. He has experienced issues curtailing the big inning.
56. Mike Sansoe - OF
Overcoming a slow start through hard work and determination, Sansoe kept at it with his swing and was rewarded down the stretch. His biggest adjustment came from not seeing time in the outfield regularly and he had trouble finding his timing. A tick above average runner, Sansoe never gave up on the season and continued to put bat on ball in an effort to breakthrough. He has good awareness of the zone and generally puts the ball in play. He is also a solid defender that can play all three outfield positions. It will be a constant battle for the California native but he possesses the intangibles to succeed.
57. R.J. Rodriguez - RHP
An aggressive pitcher with a plus changeup, Rodriguez was a bulldog as a closer after going undrafted. His main goal is to improve a recently introduced slider that he is still developing a feel for. The right-hander works comfortably ahead in the count and spots his pitches down in the zone. Rodriguez has a repeatable delivery and is consistent in his release point and there are several who believe he will be able to adapt quickly to anything new introduced.
58. Ryan Klatt - RHP
An emotional spitfire, Klatt will let the game adversely affect him. He will also press at times given his intensity but showed more maturity this season. He is a tireless worker that tinkers with his pitches, grips and mechanics in an effort to improve. On of those additions, a split-fingered fastball, allowed Klatt to be more effective against left-handed hitters. His two-seam fastball runs low and away to right-handers making it a deadly combo when on.
59. Nathan Staggs - RHP
Downright ugly when he arrived in spring training, Staggs worked hard on improving his mechanics and slowing down his delivery to the plate. With a less violent delivery, Staggs was able to use his plus fastball and good curveball to keep hitters off-balance. He actually has four pitches but rarely throws the changeup and slider. That could be revised as he looks for more ways to be effective against left-handers. He is one of the most improved pitchers in the system.
60. Jesus Lopez - SS
A defensive wizard that will go as far as his glove will take him, Lopez has work to do with the stick. He first needs to get stronger and must continue to use the opposite field to be effective. When he lunges and tries to pull the ball it results in a ground out to shortstop. He also needs better plate discipline and pitch selection. Lopez is, however, a slick fielder that has excellent range, great balance, and smooth hands. Is the glove enough in this era of baseball?

Tensions were running high within the Coalition Government last night over whether to retain the control order regime for terrorist suspects.
Ministers have repeatedly delayed a final decision on the controversial policy inherited from Labour, as they attempt to reconcile competing political pressures and security advice. The problems in resolving the situation have become so intense that David Cameron was yesterday reported to have warned colleagues: "We are heading for a fucking car crash."
A Home Office investigation into control orders, under which suspects face severe restrictions on their movements, is understood to have concluded that the system should stay in place. And the head of MI5, Jonathan Evans, recently backed their retention. He argued: "Terrorist threats can still exist which the criminal justice system cannot reach."
But the move would spark uproar among Liberal Democrats, who campaigned strongly against controls on people who have never been found guilty of a criminal offence. Several senior Tories, including the Justice Secretary Kenneth Clarke, support Nick Clegg in his opposition to control orders. Their stance is being backed by Lord Macdonald, a former director of public prosecutions, who is over-seeing the Home Office review.
Chris Huhne, the Liberal Democrat Energy Secretary, reiterated his party's hostility to the policy. "Let us see what happens in terms of the review, but I very firmly believe that the values we have in this country of a fair trial – you should know what you are accused of, you shouldn't be locked up or put under house arrest.
"It is not the sort of thing that we have traditionally done in this country and I want to get to a situation where we do not have to do that," he told the BBC yesterday. Theresa May, the Home Secretary, insisted yesterday that no decisions had been taken on the review. She said: "What I am clear about is that we do need to take some steps to rebalance national security and civil liberties, but of course commensurate always with ensuring we can keep this country safe."
In an apparent rebuke to Lord Macdonald, she pointed out that the final decision over whether to retain control orders would be taken by the Government.

Joe Walsh fills Kirby Center with blazing guitar work, hits from the '70s
WILKES-BARRE — Joe Walsh's enduring career as both songwriter and guitar slinger has produced decades worth of fans who have hits from different eras of his career committed to memory.
On Thursday night, Walsh gave them exactly what they wanted.
Walsh and company took the stage in front of a packed house at the F.M. Kirby Center, supported by opening act JD & the Straight Shot, and performed a '70s-heavy set featuring songs from his time with the James Gang, Barnstorm, and the Eagles as well as tunes from his early solo career.
Opener JD & The Straight Shot, fronted by media mogul and New York Knicks owner James Dolan, took the stage with a seven-piece ensemble but delivered the stripped-down sound of an old timey jug band.
Dolan's collection of skillful players escorted his soulful, raspy voice through the swampy bluegrass tune "Perdition," with its ominous chorus, "I can tell by the look in your eyes you're headed to Perdition," and its elegant violin punctuation.
Another set highlight was the vaudevillian sounding "I Know You Know I Know," a song about forbidden love, and the band closed the set with an improvised version of Little Feet's "Let It Roll," prompting the crowd to get loud for the first time.
When Walsh walked out with his band of seven musicians and four background vocalists, he wasted little time getting to crowd favorites.
He and session giant Waddy Wachtel traded guitar licks in an intro into the James Gang's "Walk Away." Jimmy Wallace's keyboard work added a fresh element to a tune that was originally done by a trio, and the Kirby Crowd erupted.
The band followed up with the sole hit from the modern era, "Analog Man," Walsh's lamentation of growing digital dependency. "It's no coincidence you're going to film this with your phone and miss the whole song," he joked.
A cover of Sly & The Family Stone's "Everyday People" featured the powerful vocals of Rickey Washington before Walsh launched into a medley featuring Barnstorm's "Mother Says" and the James Gang's "The Bomber: Closet Queen/Bolero/Cast Your Fate To The Wind."
The medley had a jammy feel with Walsh laying down a bout of epic psychedelia as well as slide play that reminded the audience of why he's one of the best in the business.
A touching moment came next when Walsh dedicated "Take It To The Limit" to his friend and Eagles bandmate Glenn Frey who died in January. The song brought on goosebumps and a standing ovation.
Walsh started the next song with inspired fret work full of bends, swells and wah-wah, which led into "Turn To Stone." Wachtel's sorrowful blues work transitioned into Walsh bending notes to the heavens like only he can, taking the song from peak to sonic peak.
"In The City" showcased Walsh's jam chops as he built and resolved musical tension effortlessly, and "Funk #49" was delivered with an unexpected techno breakdown that turned the Kirby Center into a dance party from decades gone by.
The set was rounded out with anthems "Life's Been Good" and "Life In The Fast Lane," bringing the crowd to its feat and leaving it chanting "Joe-Joe-Joe."
Walsh and crew returned for an encore of "Rocky Mountain Way," which featured an improvised and exaggerated version of his signature talk-box work, bringing the house to a roar.
Ed D'Amico of Back Mountain said Walsh sounded fantastic.
"He sounded as good as he always did," D'Amico said. "He's like a fine wine. He gets better with age."

Many archives and local history collections in public libraries in England and Wales offer online census searches and also hold microfilm or fiche census returns.
The 1851 census of England and Wales attempted to identify religious places of worship in addition to the household survey census returns.
Prior to the 1911 census the household schedule was destroyed and only the enumerator's schedule survives.
The 1911 census of England and Wales was taken on the night of Sunday 2 April 1911 and in addition to households and institutions such as prisons and workhouses, canal boats merchant ships and naval vessels it attempted to include homeless persons. The schedule was completed by an individual and for the first time both this record and the enumerator's schedule were preserved. Two forms of boycott of the census by women are possible due to frustration at government failure to grant women the universal right to vote in parliamentary and local elections. The schedule either records a protest by failure to complete the form in respect of the women in the household or women are absent due to organisation of groups of women staying away from home for the whole night. Research estimates that several thousand women are not found by census search.

" Internal Approval Process for Externally Sponsored Projects Best Practices by CHPSW as Temple moves from paper to electronic routing Presented at eRA@TU Users Group 2/17/2012
PRESENTER Sheri Ozard Director of Research Administration CHPSW Dean's Office (215) 707-9827 firstname.lastname@example.com
AGENDA Reason for approvals Our role as administrators Who approves What approvers are looking for eSPAF memo Other ideas
REASON FOR APPROVALS Ensure that requests for externally sponsored projects (proposals and contracts for research, community service or other project types) meet all sponsor and university policies including matching resources, release time, additional space, renovations, or other requirements needing department, college/school or University approval.
ADMIN ROLE Collect relevant information from the sponsor guidelines and PIs. Clearly articulate and disseminate that information - via eRA, the eSPAF and other relevant documents - to each reviewer, so they have the information they need to make an informed decision. Translate information from one set of lingo (such as the sponsors or PIs) to another (such as Dean's Office).
PI TopiceRA TabseSPAFTemple DocsMemo IDC SplitKey Personnel (state if Dean's Office or PI share) Course buy-outInclude request SpaceInclude request, or note if research will take place in another space Budget correctUpload detailed budget Regulatory questions All items The PI confirms that all aspects of the SPAF are accurate, as they relate to the sponsor, Co-Is, department, college, Grad School and regulatory issues.
PI: Comments from the Audience The issue of space is sensitive, and sometimes contradictory, from the PI perspective. Although this is not included in the eSPAF, the paper SPAF directed the PI to contact Space Management, an effort which is often futile. Each college is responsible for their own resolution of space issues.
OTHER FACULTY TopiceRA TabseSPAFTemple DocsMemo IDC SplitKey Personnel Course buy-out Include in memo note if accurate for Co-I's school policy SpaceInclude request, or note if research will take place in another space Base SalaryUpload detailed budget; reflects correct base salary and appt type Co-Is (and their related approval line) approve the financial impact on the Co-I and their department and school/college.
OTHER FACULTY: Comments from the Audience The Medical School typically does not use IDC split between PIs on a proposal. A template for IDC split issues was suggested. Information would be helpful on how each college handles IDC split.
CHAIR TopiceRA TabseSPAFTemple Docs Memo Project is appropriate for dept's academic focus Abstract Appropriate project and mechanism for the faculty member, esp. tenure track Abstract & face page Cost ShareItem R & cost share form Include details regarding faculty AY effort, tuition remission to be covered by dept, and other cost share The Chair confirms that the project is appropriate, and approves impact on the department's budget and space.
CHAIR TopiceRA TabseSPAFTemple Docs Memo Course buy-outEffort is deceptive – blended AY & SUM effort Upload detailed budget; shows AY effort but not buy-out Include request detailing effort & course buy-out SpaceInclude request if additional space would be needed in the department Student opportunitiesUpload detailed budget; shows any positions for undergrad and graduate students
DEAN'S OFFICE TopiceRA TabseSPAFTemple DocsMemo Project is appropriate for dept's academic focus Abstract Appropriate project and mechanism for the faculty member, esp. tenure track Abstract & face page Course buy-outEffort is deceptive – blended AY & SUM effort Upload detailed budget; shows AY effort but not buy-out Include request detailing effort and relation to college/school policy The Dean's Office approves that the project is appropriate, impact on the dept and college/school budgets is appropriate, and all Temple policies are followed.
DEAN'S OFFICE TopiceRA Tabs eSPAFTemple DocsMemo SpaceInclude request, or note if research will take place in another space IDC SplitUnder Key Personnel, noting if split will be of PI share or Dean's share F&A RateItem I Cost ShareItem R & cost share formInclude details Appropriate to other internal policies, such as tuition remission, HR, student worker Upload detailed budget Include details
DEAN'S OFFICE: Comments from the Audience The Dean's office review helps flag issues that are important for audit purposes, to SPA. An additional item not included on this list that was mentioned is equipment.
GRAD SCHOOL TopiceRA TabseSPAFTemple DocsMemo How many RA FTEs are requested? Item FUpload detailed budget Does the project meet the standard guidelines? MTDC under Requested Budget Details Upload detailed budget Is additional tuition remission requested? Include details The Grad School approves requests for tuition remission, confirming that the request meets the criteria for coverage.
INSTITUTIONAL ADVANCEMENT TopiceRA TabseSPAFTemple Docs Memo RPF/program name or grant-making area Top sectionUpload RFP Is this a limited- submission grant? Upload RFP Is this an LOI or pre- proposal? Or a full submission in response to a previous LOI? Include details Have PI and sponsor discussed proposal? Include details Institutional Advancement is reviewing the proposal to verify that the corporate or foundation request does not conflict with an existing proposal, and to update their records regarding activity with the sponsoring agency.
INSTITUTIONAL ADVANCEMENT: Comments from the Audience The role of Institutional Advancement is to make sure the proposed project fits in to already existing relationships with foundation sponsors. IA would like to see the RFP, the project name (general topic area or category) in order to make sure the mechanism is appropriate.
SPA TopiceRA TabseSPAFTemple DocsMemo DeadlineSet up questions RFPUpload RFP How will it be submitted Mechanism noted Upload RFPInclude additional instructions Will there be subawards Budget tab; subaward docs uploaded as required by sponsor Upload detailed budget; upload subaward docs if not part of submission SPA conducts the final review to ensure that all Temple and sponsor requirements are met. They also need instructions on how a proposal will be submitted.
SPA TopiceRA TabseSPAFTemple DocsMemo Correct F&A rateUpload sponsor guidelines, if not standard rate Were fringe and F&A calculated correctly? Upload detailed budget IRB IP Issues (publications, patents & commercialization) Item S Extenuating circumstances (PI eligible for NIH continual submission, foundation rolling deadline, etc) Include details
SPA: Comments from the Audience Noting of IRB status represents a point of conflict between the PI and SPA. There is a discrepancy between the understanding of "pending" status. The PI will use this terminology for any protocol not yet approved, even if it has not been submitted yet. SPA reserves the use of "pending" status only to those protocols already submitted for IRB approval. There are important reasons why PIs do not submit IRB protocols until funding is likely. One suggestion to overcome this issue is to add a place on the eSPAF where the PI can note that the protocol will be submitted for review if the project is funded. Human Subjects exemption status is a point of confusion among some administrators. It was suggested that a webinar may be helpful to clear up the questions surrounding this issue.
SPA: Comments from the Audience CST battles with the issue of PIs either not being aware of or not speaking up regarding environmental hazards. Administrators should be aware of the details of each proposal (whether by reading through the budget justification, abstract, or other relevant document, or searching for key words in the proposal itself) to be able to judge whether regulatory approval is needed. In general, a higher level of PI involvement with regulatory questions should be a goal for the future. Sometimes there is a lack of awareness of what exactly they are signing off on. A possible solution under certain circumstances is to print a copy of the eSPAF and ask the PI to physically sign. Per Bob O'Malley, additional regulatory questions will be added to the eSPAF. In addition, EHRS is planned to be connected to eRA@TU in the manner of IRB and IACUC. CITI certification is currently not available through the IRB information in eRA@TU. A suggestion was raised for IRB to upload the CITI certification as PDF into each approval record.
FOR THE FUTURE TopiceRA TabseSPAFTemple DocsMemo Subawards to be created Upload relevant docs Upload detailed budget Course buy-outInclude request; may need to be reneogiated if effort changes from proposal IRB or IACUCSet-up questions Clinical TrialItem D Data securityItem O Clear notes should be made on those items that will be important to act upon when the project is funded.
FOR THE FUTURE: Comments from the Audience Electronic connection for risk management and insurance was suggested as a potential future item.
EXAMPLE: IDENTIFYING INFO This memorandum relates to the following sponsored project eSPAF: PI: Jane Doe eRA: 261000 Sponsor: City of Philadelphia (Prime: CDC) Project Title:Reducing Salt in Take Out Food Submission Date: 1/26/2012 Submission Via:PI will hand-deliver to the sponsor
EXAMPLE: SPAF-RELATED NOTES The following notes are being made for the file: Effort (course buy-out requested, explanation of academic vs. summer effort, etc.): Dr. Doe's current teaching load is 1-1. There will not be any reductions to this teaching load due to the 10% effort devoted to this project. Space (request for additional space if funded, use of another faculty member's space, comments about off-campus rate): If the project is funded, office space for one RA will be required. Cost Share (complete details are noted on the eSPAF and related Cost Share form) Dr. Doe is cost-sharing 5% of her AY salary in all years of the project. Tuition remission one calendar appointment RA for each year of the grant, at 18 credit hours per year, will be split by the PI, Dean's office and Grad School. Other The sponsor only allows 10% F&A; guidelines are uploaded into eRA.
EXAMPLE: SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS The following action steps by SPA are requested: Please obtain university signature on the attached contract. Contact me when it is ready for pick-up. The PI will deliver it to the sponsor for counter-signature, and we will return a fully-executed copy for your files. Please request an Advance FOAP from RAS. Advance FOAP Request Form is uploaded into eRA.
MEMO: Comments from the Audience The memo reduces emails and phone calls, thereby increasing productivity. Some SPA leadership finds it helpful as it collects information in one place, especially for non-system to system proposals. A potential limitation is that when pre- and post-award functions are not separated within the college it may not be as helpful.
OTHER IDEAS? The cost-sharing form asks for academic salary, but doesn't fit the School of Medicine model. A question was raised regarding the need for detailed subcontract budgets for modular grants. SPA clarified that a simpler budget may be entered as long as the detailed subaward budgets are uploaded under Temple Documents.

On the eve of testing of the 2011 model year patrol vehicles, Lt. Keith Wilson of the Michigan State Police precision driving unit sat down with POLICE in Lansing to review the five new patrol vehicles, explain testing proceedures, and discuss officer safety during high-speed pursuits. Listen for Wilson's explanation of how Ford plans to get a "sneak peek" of the performance of its new police interceptors while it continues to develop the replacement for the Crown Vic.
Michigan State Trooper Kevin Caldwell never expected to exchange gunfire with anyone May 22, 2009 on his day off. But the law enforcement officer and ordained pastor who serves as a chaplain in the U.S. Army Reserve drew on training from both his occupations to aid a fellow officer taking fire from an enraged home owner.
Each year, the Michigan State Police driving unit evaluates law enforcement vehicles from the new model year. The unit evaluates patrol cars, SUVs and motorcycles using a series of tests that test each vehicle's performance, ergonomics and mechanic-friendly qualities. The results are tallied and included in a report that's used by police fleet managers to aid in the decision to purchase patrol vehicles.
In the words of one EVOC trainer, "Every officer wants the best vehicle they can get their hands on. Every department wants the most cost-effective fleet possible. Somewhere in between is probably the best place to be."
Every fall, law enforcement vehicles are tested by two of the nation's premier law enforcement agencies: the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department and the Michigan State Police. This year, Ford brought a hybrid vehicle.
This column is generally about defensive tactics or ways to give yourself an edge in a gunfight. Each month, you flip open your Police magazine and on or about this page there's a column by a martial artist that tells you how to stun an attacker with a forearm blast or an article about what to do when your trusty sidearm jams and all hell is breaking loose.
Each fall the big three of U.S. police car makers turn their latest models over to test drivers from the Michigan State Police for comprehensive evaluations at the DaimlerChrysler proving grounds in Chelsea, Mich., and timed laps at Grattan Raceway in Belding, Mich.

Chapter 1: The Great Plan Of Life Unfolds
The End Of The Patriarchy And Return Of The Great Mother And The Feminine To Our World
The Patriarchy And Warfare Through The Ages
In the course of several years chapter after chapter of this part of my jottings came into being. Whilst writing them I got an ever stronger feeling that the book of life was opening before me, to show me that there really is a great plan of life and how it has always been unfolding. This part of my work, probably more than any other, proves to me that we and our world have always rested safely and forever will do so in the hands of our Creator, the Father/Mother of all life. S/He is the Great designer and architect of life and the Angels are in charge of and responsible for the execution of the great plan.
What is before you now was written with the intention of reassuring you that all is well with us and our world, in spite of the fact that there have been many times – including now – when on the surface of things it appears that this is by no means the case. What better instrument could there be than astrology, the Divine Science, to reveal that there really is a great design of life, God's Plan, which through the ages has been unfolding as it should? There is no doubt in my mind that this will continue forever.
To everything there is a season
And a time for every purpose under the Sun:
A time to be born and a time to die.
A time to plant and a time
To pluck up that which has been planted.
A time to kill and a time to heal.
A time to tear down and a time to build up.
A time to weep and a time to laugh.
A time to mourn and a time to dance.
A time to cast away stones and
A time to gather stones together.
A time to embrace and
A time to refrain from embracing.
A time to lose and a time to seek.
A time to tie up and a time to untie.
A time to rend and a time to sew.
A time to keep silent and a time to speak.
A time to love and a time to hate.
A time for war and a time for peace –
He has made everything beautiful, in its time.
Ecclesiastes 3:1-11
There were times when during our earthly sojourns
We had forgotten God's true nature and our own.
When we thought that the death at the end of
Each one of them was the end of everything.
When we didn't know that our departure from one level of life
Means to be reborn into our true home
And returning into the awareness of our real nature.
Our ignorance drew us and our world ever deeper
Into the patriarchy with its warmongering
That dragged us into times of ever more seriously
Hurting and wounding others and being wounded.
All human souls have to imbibe thoroughly
The lessons this brings to us and our world
So that we may learn to differentiate between
Darkness and light, evil and good, war and peace.
Out of the suffering of such periods grows
The wisdom and understanding we need
To get the permission of the Highest to return into
The knowledge of who and what we truly are.
This rekindles the flame of love in our hearts and
We are reborn into kinship and friendship with all life.
Rejoice, that time is now.
A time for finding forgiveness and healing,
For ourselves, each other, our world and all worlds,
For blessing and healing the soul wounds of all lifetimes,
Not only our own and everybody else's,
But also those of our whole world.
That's what the Age of Aquarius means to me.
Ecclesiastes is one of the most ancient parts of the Old Testament. It has its roots in Judaism and from there they penetrate ever deeper into the much older spiritual traditions of the Middle East and Africa, and in particular the Ancient Egyptian religion.
