PPG Industries said it is developing an energy reduction plan for all of its facilities through ENERGY STAR, a program of the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Department of Energy (DOE) that sets standards for energy efficiency in buildings, products and services.
PPG said many of its glass, coatings and paints products under its EcoLogical Building solutions meet or exceed ENERGY STAR performance levels.
Isn't it nice that companies are now using their own green products?

Recap | Notes | Photo Gallery
Michigan Head Coach Red Berenson
On tonight's game... "Well, our start of the game was pretty good. We had some point blank chances that we didn't capitalize on, but we got the lead in the game and that was important. Now you go into the third period with a two-to-one lead and it's anyone's game. I thought we were playing decent and then we took those two penalties. The strength of our team, up until now, has been penalty killing. We couldn't kill that five on three; not even close. Then they scored on the five on four: it's just too easy. All of a sudden, it's a whole new game. Goals have been hard to come by for us of late and we just couldn't come from behind. You want to and you hope you can. We had our chances and I'm not sure who it was that hit the goalie in the mask. That's where pucks are going; they're just not going in the net."
On if this is a snowball effect for Michigan hockey... "I don't know if it snowballs. I think there were a few moments in the game that our power play showed something. This is a test for our team. This is a real test of character and leadership. Every player in that locker room is really feeling the heat now. It's not Michigan hockey but right now we just got to get ourselves going in the right direction. We played parts of the game well, but you have got to have the whole game. I could say that for every game we've been in and in the last four games, including tonight, it's been a one-goal game going into the third period. We've either shot ourselves in the foot, or given up a bad goal, or given up a bad penalty."
On what he said to the team after the game... "We've got to stick together. We have to play smarter. There is no margin for error. You saw two mistakes by our defense in East Lansing cost us the game. We make a bad decision on the penalty kill and our penalty killers can't kill it. There is no margin for error right now. The puck is not going in. We don't have a surplus of goals that we can afford to give up one bad goal -- one unearned goal."
Senior Defender Chris Summers
On how Michigan hockey is going to turn things around... "It has to be on an individual basis. You have to make sure you show up at the rink every day. I don't think that as a team everyone showed up. It has to filter into the rest of the team. It's hard to stay positive in times like this but this is going to happen. You can't have a perfect season every year. You have to fight it out, keep fighting, and stay positive."
Junior Forward Louie Caporusso
On losing five games in a row... "Obviously, this isn't Michigan hockey. Michigan hockey isn't known to lose five games in a row. I don't remember the last time that happened. It definitely hasn't been since I've been here. It doesn't sit well. It doesn't feel good when you belong to a team that is not playing Michigan-hockey caliber. I think there is a light at the end of the tunnel. These things happen. A lot of teams go through this sort of thing. Even the best teams go through this sort of thing. I'm not too concerned. I think the bounces will come and we will work our way out of this."

I consider it the highest honour to be an elected representative in Her Majesty's Parliament. At a time when we are trying to rehabilitate parliament in the eyes of the population it is a disaster that this man has behaved as he has. I accept it will affect parliament's standing in the eyes of the people, and I am really saddended by that, irrespective of which political party this gentleman belongs to.
The facts are these: this morning the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards (the MP's "watchdog") recommended that Denis MacShane, Labour MP for Rotherham, be suspended for 12 months for submitting expenses invoices which were, in the Commissioner's words, "plainly intended to deceive" the Parliament's expenses authority. They found that he submitted 19 false expenses invoices worth £12,900, over four financial years between 2004 and 2008, for "research and translation" work carried out by the European Policy Institute. Subsequently Mr MacShane resigned today as an MP.
The BBC has the full story here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-20178332
Although many people would not believe me such abuses are very rare in the post 2010 parliament - please note these offences date from the time of expenses problems in 2004-2008, which is a different era in my view. I remain of the view that things have changed in the modern post 2010 Parliament, with half the MPs now being new MPs; but it is also right for rogue MPs to be booted out when we do wrong in this way.
In the longer term it will mean that there are to be 2 by elections in the North in the spring in Middlesbrough, and now Rotherham.

The thing is; if this was benefit fraud, MacShane wouldn't just have to pay back the public money he stole; he'd be heading for prison for the crime.ReplyDelete
We'll have to see if it ever comes to court. I have my doubts it will.
Still somewhat double standards for us plebians.
Another sad state is he will not be prosecuted for the offences. Now need to sort out renting from fellow MP's and maybe we will start to trust you again. And also stop claiming for food, we can't claim so neither should MP's, you would eat at home as well away from home.ReplyDelete

Mount Rainier National Park
The image of snow-capped Mount Rainier behind the skyscrapers of Seattle is one of Washington's most recognized views. As nearly two million people visit the national park surrounding the mountain every year, access is a significant concern. For example, at the northwest entrance, the Carbon River Road has frequently been washed out leading to closures. Legislation passed in 2004 expanded the park's boundary in this area to establish a new campground, create new trail access points, reduce maintenance costs, and minimize the impacts of frequent floods.
The expansion will also afford much needed habitat protection for habitat for endangered and threatened species such as the marbled murrelet, northern spotted owl, and Chinook salmon.
Among the properties included within the newly expanded park boundary is the Carbon River Gateway, a multi-parcel piece. The property is easily accessible from the road and contains a small knoll commanding a beautiful view of the valley, making it ideal as an overlook and interpretative site. National Park Service protection of this key tract is a critical step towards attaining the recreational, management, and environmental goals of the boundary expansion. Funding appropriated through the Land and Water Conservation Fund is completing the protection of the Carbon River Gateway and park expansion area.

Generals Take Series After 7-1 Win on Monday
Jackson hasn't lost a series at home to Birmingham since 2007
By Andrew Key / Jackson Generals | May 20, 2013 11:38 AM ET
JACKSON, TENN - (May 20, 2013) The Generals (19-24) smashed out five runs on
four hits in the fourth inning to take the series over the Barons' (28-17),
7-1. With the series win, the Generals have not dropped a series to the
Barons' at home dating back to 2007.
Birmingham established an early lead in the first. Costly walks from
Generals' starter Brett Shankin gave the Barons' base runners and an early
advantage off the bat of Andy Wilkins.
After one pass through the Generals' lineup, Barons' starter Scott Snodgress
retired the minimum. In the fourth frame, Leon Landry (1-4, R) led off with
a bunt single. He advanced to second on a throwing error from Snodgress.
Landry scored after an attempted steal to third is overthrown plating
Landry. Gabriel Noriega (1-2, R, 2 BB) was given a free pass and moved to
second on a sacrifice bunt from Brad Miller (0-3, SAC). Vinnie Catricala
(1-2, 2 R) reached first via walk and scored off the bat of Julio Morban
(2-4, 2 RBI, 2 R, 3B). Morban tripled and scored on an infield single from
James Jones (0-3, R). Jones scored after Leury Bonilla (3-4, 3 RBI, 2B)
doubled to left center. After four, the Generals led 5-1.
The Generals added some insurance in the sixth. After back-to-back singles
from Catricala and Morban, Jones sacrificed both runners into scoring
position. Bonilla brought the two in with a bloop single to right. The
Generals led 7-1 after six.
Brett Shankin (W, 3-1, 5.0,2,1,1,5,2,0) gathered the win on the mound in his
seventh start of the season. In the win, Shankin tied his season high of
walks (5), but gave up a season-low one run and two hits. Moises Hernandez
(3.0,0,0,0,0,4) added his best performance of the season out of the pen by
retiring nine straight Barons hitters. The Barons' starter Scott Snodgress
suffered the loss. In the loss, he gave up a season high seven runs and
season low one strikeout.
The Generals have two days off before traveling to Montgomery for the second
five-game series this year. In the first series, the Generals won the set
3-2. First on the hill for Jackson will be LHP Anthony Fernandez (1-0,
8.84). Montgomery will start RHP Jake Thompson (2-5, 7.09) in game one. The
game can be heard on 96.5 ESPN Radio, TuneIn Radio App. and

Amelia HTML version
Containing An Eulogium Upon Innocence, And Other Grave Matters
Booth past that evening, and all the succeeding day, with his Amelia, without the
interruption of almost a single thought concerning Miss Matthews, after having
determined to go on the Sunday, the only day he could venture without the verge
in the present state of his affairs, and pay her what she had advanced for him in
the prison. But she had not so long patience; for the third day, while he was
sitting with Amelia, a letter was brought to him. As he knew the hand, he
immediately put it into his pocket unopened, not without such an alteration in his
countenance, that had Amelia, who was then playing with one of the children,
cast her eyes towards him, she must have remarked it. This accident, however,
luckily gave him time to recover himself; for Amelia was so deeply engaged with
the little one, that she did not even remark the delivery of the letter. The maid
soon after returned into the room, saying, the chairman desired to know if there
was any answer to the letter.--"What letter?" cries Booth.--"The letter I gave you
just now," answered the girl.--"Sure," cries Booth, "the child is mad, you gave me
no letter."--"Yes, indeed, I did, sir," said the poor girl. "Why then as sure as fate,"
cries Booth, "I threw it into the fire in my reverie; why, child, why did you not tell
me it was a letter? bid the chairman come up, stay, I will go down myself; for he
will otherwise dirt the stairs with his feet."
Amelia was gently chiding the girl for her carelessness when Booth returned,
saying it was very true that she had delivered him a letter from Colonel James,
and that perhaps it might be of consequence. "However," says he, "I will step to
the coffee-house, and send him an account of this strange accident, which I
know he will pardon in my present situation."
Booth was overjoyed at this escape, which poor Amelia's total want of all
jealousy and suspicion made it very easy for him to accomplish; but his pleasure
was considerably abated when, upon opening the letter, he found it to contain,
mixed with several very strong expressions of love, some pretty warm ones of
the upbraiding kind; but what most alarmed him was a hint that it was in her
(Miss Matthews's) power to make Amelia as miserable as herself. Besides the
general knowledge of
----Furens quid faemina possit,
he had more particular reasons to apprehend the rage of a lady who had given
so strong an instance how far she could carry her revenge. She had already sent
a chairman to his lodgings with a positive command not to return without an
answer to her letter. This might of itself have possibly occasioned a discovery;
and he thought he had great reason to fear that, if she did not carry matters so

Ubundu| A group of bonobo apes living in the Salonga National Park, may have mastered the basic practice of creating and using fire. This particular group of almost three hundred specimens from this rare and extremely intelligent race of great apes, have been under close surveillance by a team of primatologist for the last three years, and seem to have recently developed a primitive fire building technique using rocks and twigs.
The bonobo, formerly called pygmy chimpanzees, is a omnivorous great ape found in a 500 000km2 area of the Congo Basin in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. It is mostly popularly known for its high levels of sexual behavior and its use of almost a dozen different primitive tools. Its level of intelligence is already considered to be almost unique amongst ape, being topped only by humans. Two bonobos at the Great Ape Trust in Iowa, Kanzi and Panbanisha, have been even taught how to communicate using a keyboard labeled with lexigrams (geometric symbols) and they can respond to spoken sentences. Kanzi' vocabulary consists of more than 500 English words and he has comprehension of around 3,000 spoken English words.

City lauds revamped website
NEW PORT RICHEY - City officials have redecorated their cyberspace. The overhaul of the New Port Richey municipal website dramatically alters the online face of the city from the staid look of the old system. City council members said they liked the facelift of the website during a presentation by Clark Jones, the city's information technology and communications director. "I feel like a proud mama," Councilwoman Judy Debella Thomas said with a chuckle about the rebirth of the city website.The color scheme practically screams Florida, Thomas said. Background photos change from one section to the next. City Clerk Doreen Summers guided the project with help from Annais Scott, the New Port Richey Public Library's events and community outreach director, and others. New Port Richey borrowed concepts from the website of its sister city in France, Cavalaire sur Mer, Summers added. Residents and businesses will gain many more online options as well, Jones said. Bid postings are now included under a new section on the home page, "Open for Business." In the future, the city will add online forms where residents can make requests. The home page features four other main sections, Community, City Departments, Visitors and How Do I? Web surfers then can choose items from drop-down menus. Check out the new features at www.cityofnewportrichey.org.

Taxpayers pay price for Bergen County legal fights
The Bergen County executive sued the Board of Freeholders over the hiring of a county auditor.
The county clerk sued the county executive over the hiring of a liaison to the Korean-American community.
The surrogate sued the county executive over three promotions that were blocked.
The county executive sued the freeholders over an ordinance that sought to dissolve the County Police and merge it with the Sheriff's Office.
The Northwest Bergen Utilities Authority sued the county executive over the payment of stipends and medical benefits for commission members.
The county executive sued the utilities authority seeking to recover those benefits paid to commissioners.
It all happened in the space of eight whirlwind — some would say eye glazing — months, for reasons all the parties thought were essential, but ones that left taxpayers wondering who was running county government.
It also stuck taxpayers with the bill for a series of lawsuits, some still ongoing, that so far have totaled more than $230,000.
For County Executive Kathleen Donovan, a party in each suit, it was a price to pay for shaking up a county power structure that she says has not been challenged in years. The suits, three of which were filed by her office, not only took on practices she deemed wasteful, but are helping to establish, in a legal way, the full extent of the powers given to her office when it was created a quarter century ago
To others, they were the product of Donovan's unwillingness to compromise on decisions she felt were clearly in her domain.
So far, the results of that litigation are a mixed bag. Donovan has won one lawsuit; won partial victories in two others; lost one (which remains on appeal); and settled two cases.
"The litigation reflects the old and the new — those whose concern is politics versus those concerned about policy," Donovan said in a statement.
She blamed her predecessor, Democrat Dennis McNerney, for not establishing control over policy she contends her office controls.
"McNerney never was involved in litigation of this kind because he was part of a political machine," she said. "The litigation reflects my willingness to fight to keep my word, and the word of other elected public officials, to the residents of Bergen County."
McNerney, whom Donovan defeated in 2010, responded: "It's clear Kathleen is completely paranoid and her actions speak to that."
A spokesman for the Bergen County Democratic Party said Donovan is mistaking gridlock for reform.
"True reform, the reform that people want to see, is that brought about by government working cohesively and working together," said party spokesman Adam Silverstein.
Not just party politics
While two of the lawsuits were filed by Democrats, Surrogate Michael Dressler and Clerk John Hogan, not all of the litigation split along party lines.
Donovan twice has sued the Board of Freeholders, where the GOP holds a 5-2 majority. The first suit stemmed from the board's attempt to hire a county auditor, which Donovan contends is her appointment to make. The second sought to block the board's effort to merge the County Police into the Sheriff's Office and to put the matter to a referendum. The costs so far have been around $45,000 for the two suits. Oral arguments in the auditor case were made on Friday, with a decision expected this week.
John Mitchell, a Cliffside Park Republican who heads the Freeholder Board, said he is dismayed at all the legal bills racked up so far in the disputes between county officials.
"It's outrageous. It's too much," Mitchell said. "I'm sure we could argue over the merits of each case. And I suppose if you talk to each of the parties, everyone will say 'No. No. We had to do this.'
"But when you look at that number, clearly it behooves us to be working together in a more compatible way so that these expenditures are not borne on the backs of an already beleaguered taxpayer," Mitchell said.
Dressler, who lost his suit against Donovan, said he has served as surrogate with three county executives, both Republican and Democrat, without any problems like what he encountered this year. The case challenged Donovan's authority to block promotions in his office. It has cost more than $56,000.
"I hope going forward we can discuss and meet and get on the same page," he said. "We need to be able to talk."
The Freeholder Board is split over the need for some of the litigation.
Freeholder David Ganz, a Fair Lawn Democrat, last week started voting against approving any further payments for outside counsel, even though he said he believes public officials are entitled to legal representation.
"I believe that the expenditure of public funds for this is disgraceful," he said. "It seems to me we'd do better if we spent $50 to go to Toys "R" Us and bought a sandbox and play in it together."
Freeholder Robert Hermansen, a Mahwah Republican, defended Donovan's role as an agent of change in some of the lawsuits
"I think what you're seeing is people who've never heard the word "no" before," Hermansen said. "… So their immediate reaction is that they're going to sue over this."
Jeanne Baratta, Donovan's chief of staff, struck a similar note in assessing the lawsuits filed by and against Donovan.
"When Kathe Donovan ran for county executive she made it clear that it wasn't going to be 'business as usual,'" Baratta said. "It seems that some people don't understand that and are trying to hold on to 'the good old days.'Ÿ"
Baratta said the cost of Donovan's litigation against the Northwest Bergen County Utilities Authority — in which she challenged the practice of paying stipends and health benefits to part-time commissioners — will be absorbed by the eventual savings to taxpayers and the utility's customers.
The commission's 2012 budget included $40,000 for stipends and $97,189 in medical benefits. So far, nearly $75,000 has been spent on outside counsel for two lawsuits involving the utilities authority.

The Best Scandal Ever HTML version
It was hot in the slate blue classroom, even for California. Sam shifted uncomfortably in his seat,
adjusting the blue woollen poncho he habitua lly wore during his public events at his damp neck.
Metal chairs ground against the linoleum floor as his audience prepared to leave, clutching folders and
now lukewarm water bottles.
He used a finger to lift a blonde tendril of his long hair over the neckline from where it was sticking to
his skin, rubbed his chin, carefully avoiding smearing the coconut oil that concealed the worst of the
sun damage and scoped the room. Four, maybe five possibles?
People often commented on his youtube channel that he was clearly feeling the cold because of his
vegan diet, but the reality was that Sam the diet expert was fat. He had been even fatter before he had
given up food but even on a liquid diet – the fact could not be escaped. Sam, the leonine and now
rather eccentric last baby of a plump late mother, was born to be delic iously cuddly.
At school as a teenager, he had been teased mercilessly about his weight and manic inability to stop
talking. His short neck made this look worse than it really was. He hid his pain by out-ta lking and at
least trying to out-perform his classmates, and apart from the occasional spiteful exchange with the
more popular blue eyed Aryan jock loving girls, managed to escape the worst effects on his self-
confidence, enjoying his college years as a musician before the plane crash stymied his post-college
career in the uber-masculine world of railway construction. As such, a formerly corpulent and over
talkative hippy geek became the internationa lly famous yippy health guru and motivationa l expert –
Sam Redwood.
"Thank you so much, Sam, you"ve changed our lives forever.†Sam heard this every day.
The elderly couple were quivering slightly as they looked at him, damp eyed as the diminutive wife
described how her frail looking, quiet husband had suffered colon cancer and recovered from a
terminal diagnosis thanks to Sam"s work. Sam nodded and smiled and noted the thirty five year old
blonde behind them.
"I"m so happy to hear that. It"s so nice to meet you both. I"m so glad I helped.†The usual response
whilst he waited until today"s prize reached the front of the queue waiting to shake his over-warm
hand. He quickly reached for his cold glass of water before the slightly overweight, sweating blonde
got to him, beaming and battering eyelashes with unfortunately clogged mascara.
"I"m such a huge fan of yours, Sam.â€
"Really? That"s good to hear! Are you rushing off anywhere, or do you have time to wait while I
pack up?â€
Sam liked girls. Sam liked lots of girls. Girls in every town he spoke in welcomed Sam on the same
one night only basis every time he visited. Indeed, Sam would sometimes have to make excuses to
avoid some of them, they were so keen. Never in his life previously had he dreamed that one day he
would have the pick of quite so many women, and many of his former school mates looked on with
envy at his legendary lifestyle and success with women. This one wasn"t on his "ten" list, but she was
a little imperfect, which he liked, and extremely keen to get to know him, which he liked even more.
"Is that true, that you"re the richest hippy in the world?â€

Glaucoma is the name given to a group of eye conditions which can cause vision loss.
The eyes are filled with a watery substance called aqueous humour which helps to keep the eyeball in the correct shape. Aqueous humour is produced within the eye and then flows out. The production and drainage of aqueous humour usually occurs at the same rate, so the pressure in the eye stays equal. Glaucoma occurs when the tubes that normally drain fluid from the eye become blocked. This causes pressure in the eye, called intraocular pressure, to build up as the fluid cannot drain properly. The rise in pressure in the eye causes damage to the optic nerve (the nerve that takes information from the eye to the brain) and this can lead to visual impairment. Glaucoma often affects both eyes but it may develop and progress at a quicker rate in one eye compared to the other.
There are 3 main types of glaucoma that affect adults:
• Primary open-angle glaucoma. This is also called chronic glaucoma. • Acute angle-closure glaucoma• Secondary glaucoma
In the UK around 2% of people over the age of 40 and 5% of people over the age of 80 will have some type of glaucoma.

Pheffer: EPIC Changes Help Seniors
Assemblywoman Audrey I. Pheffer has announced reconfiguration in New York's Elderly Pharmaceutical Insurance Coverage (EPIC) program in the 2007 state budget that will help reduce these costs so New York's seniors can afford their medicine and enjoy a healthy life.
"Seniors face increasing struggles to pay for needed prescription drugs as drug prices continue to skyrocket, especially when most live on fixed incomes," said Pheffer.
EPIC changes effective July 1, 2007
On July 1, 2007, new EPIC rules become effective. It's important to be aware of these new regulations, which may affect you and your family. Beginning July 1:
Everyone enrolled in EPIC must join a Medicare Part D drug plan. If seniors haven't already chosen a plan, EPIC will enroll them in one that works best for them, based on their drugs and the pharmacy they use.
EPIC will provide coverage for drugs not covered by the new Medicare Part D plan and for expenses falling within the Medicare Part D coverage gap.
For seniors enrolled in the EPIC fee plan and Part D, EPIC will pay up to $24.45 for the Part D premium. It will also reduce drug co-pays. You will pay the EPIC fee, which will be waived if you have full Extra Help (part of the EPIC plan), and a portion of the costs of every pharmacy.
For seniors enrolled in the EPIC deductible plan and Part D, EPIC will reduce the EPIC deductible and drug co-pays. You will pay the plan's premium, a reduced EPIC deductible and a portion of the costs of every pharmacy prescription. Show your EPIC card at the pharmacy, whether you are enrolled in the fee or deductible plan, and prescription prices will be adjusted to the following EPIC rates:
Prescription CostYour Cost
Up to $15.00$3.00
Over $55.00$20.00
EPIC Exceptions
Seniors who previously did not meet their EPIC deductible will not be required to join a Part D plan, nor will EPIC enrollees who would lose retiree health care coverage if enrolled in Part D. Seniors in Medicare Advantage plans that do not offer a cost-effective Part D option without reducing other medical benefits are also not required to join a Part D plan.
EPIC dates to note:
June 15-July: EPIC and Medicare Part D cards mailed.
June 20-July: Medicare Part D bills mailed, with three different payment options: automatic deduction from your monthly Social Security benefits; automatic monthly deduction from your checking account; or direct billing.
July 1: Begin using both EPIC and Medicare prescription cards for all prescription drugs.
EPIC will notify you about the changes that will affect your health care. In the meantime, for more information or to apply for EPIC, call the EPIC Hotline at 1-800-332-EPIC, extension 3742.

- Ted Seeber
Wow- the Catholic Information Center is sponsored by Knights of Columbus. How will you ever survive a discussion in so much misogyny (not real misogyny of course- in America today that requires sado-masochistic tendencies and an adherence to a certain very non-Catholic fantasy/sci-fi genre, but rather the false misogyny of those who promote the culture of no-fault divorce, broken homes, and the sexual revolution like to think Catholics are for).
- Ted Seeber
Messed up, mixed up the Catholic Information Center with the Catholic Information SERVICE. Realized it while reading this month's Columbia Magazine on the history of the Knights of Columbus.
- Ted Seeber
Also, the sci-fi I was thinking of was the submissive heroine genre- such as Edgar Rice Burroughs' Mars novels.
- Leonhard
I'm trying to parse what Ted Seeber is saying. It reads like a jumble. I get the feeling that he's trying to say that there's a right kind of misogony, and a wrong kind of misogony… and that Battlestar Galactica is non-Catholic science fiction?
Other than Wrinkle In Time, is there any "Catholic" science fiction? C.S Lewis space trilogy doesn't count, and The Man Who Was Thursday isn't science fiction.
- deiseach
Possibly Lord of the World by Robert Hugh Benson; it's a dystopian apocalypse where the End of the World comes about between the AntiChrist and the Pope.

I followed this link without very high expectations, but wow. That story was more profound than I thought it would be. I find it fascinating Catholicism really gets to some not through its truth but its fiction: just look at the effect A Canticle of Leibowitz has on certain people. I know someone who converted because of that book.
- Alex Godofsky
I've reread his post half a dozen times and I *think* I've managed to parse it. I think he's saying that:
1) "those who promote the culture of no-fault divorce, broken homes, and the sexual revolution" believe that a certain OTHER set of beliefs is misogynistic.
2) This set of beliefs is held by the Knights of Columbus.
3) This set of beliefs isn't actually misogynistic; it is falsely labeled as mysogyny by the group in (1)
Basically, I think he's trying to criticize the "War on Women" meme.
- Al DelG
"A Canticle for Leibowitz" by Walter M. Miller, first publication 1960.
- Ted Seeber
Another *very* good example. Also _The Quest For Saint Aquin_ by Anthony Boucher.
- Ted Seeber
More that there is a right definition of misogyny (the hatred of women) vs the wrong definition of misogyny (saying that the genders of different, with different physiology, psychology, and talents; but equal in worth). The later definition only came into vogue since 1925 or so.
Has nothing to do with Battlestar Galactica- and everything to do with the type of feminism that says that all heterosexual sex is rape.
BTW, for Catholic Science Fiction- one need go no further than JRR Tolkien on the fantasy side, and GK Chesterton on the hard science fiction / detective story side. A very interesting comparison would be between Chesterton's _A Man Called Thursday_ and Ray Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451_.

A Wrinkle in Time is catholic, in the sense that it was written by a Christian who was not a heretic. But Madeline l'Engle was an Episcopalian, not a Roman Catholic. She was very high-church, and had a very sacramental theology. But you can't call her a Catholic unless you want to admit that we Episcopalians have valid Orders and are just as Catholic as you Romans.

I found out about St Ambrose and his baptism! He was requested by the laity to be their bishop, so unofficially 'selected' before he was baptized. However, he was baptized on November 30, and CONSECRATED bishop December 7 374. So in the end, it came down to a matter of wording!

I hope you have enjoyed your Journey so far. I have found it is not an event (sometimes avant) but a step by step path to knowledge built on rock.
I remember a story of a two man race between the USA and another man from the Soviet Union.
The New York Times reported; "American comes in first, and the Soviets come in second."
Pravda reported; "Soviet Union comes in second, and America comes in second to last."
Both are true. As Pilate said, "What is truth?" So I look to the the Pope and the Bishops in Rome for the truth. And it has serviced me well. As it did for the Ethiopian in the chariot.
At center of the Church is the Eucharist.
- Paul Prescod
Hey Leah: I have been checking in from time to time to see how your thinking evolves. I followed the link to the podcast.
I found three things interesting:
1. I have never heard a Christian speak so little about Jesus, the Resurrection, the Bible and so forth. After all of these months, I still do not know whether you believe in a literal and historical Resurrection.
2. Among the things you listed as "axioms of the Catholic Church" there were virtually no overlap wih the Nicene creed which are generally considered the true axioms of Christianity.
3. You compared the Catholic Church to a democracy where you stay and fight about what is right. But an organization lead by a sometimes-infallible human being is the farthest possible thing from a democracy. How do you, a woman, plan to "fight things out" and influence this church. Even the women who have dedicated their life to service (literally) have their theological arguments ignored (LCWR).
I just cannot understand how a person with your independent mindset could possibly be happy in obedience to a man elected by a small group of other men, who were appointed by his predecessor.

Copper to Swing to First Surplus Since '09, Pan Pacific Says
World copper supply may outstrip demand in 2013 for the first time in four years as mine output rises, according to Pan Pacific Copper Co., Japan's top producer.
Supply will exceed demand by 199,000 metric tons, compared with deficits of 95,000 tons in 2012 and 132,000 tons in 2011, said Toshitaka Nakamura, senior executive officer for marketing in the joint venture between JX Nippon Mining & Metals Corp., a unit of JX Holdings Inc., and Mitsui Mining & Smelting Co. (5706)
Copper, used in electronics and automobiles, has lost 3 percent in the past year as demand dropped amid a slowing economy in China, the biggest user of the metal, and Europe's debt crisis. A surplus may limit price gains, cutting costs for manufacturers including Panasonic Corp. (6752), Sony Corp. (6758), Honda Motor Co. and Toyota Motor Corp. (7203)
"With mine supplies increasing later this year, the market balance will shift to a surplus after shortages in the previous three years," Nakamura said in an interview yesterday.
Southern Copper Corp. (SCCO), the most profitable producer of the metal, is trying to overcome community protests in Peru and labor unrest in Mexico to reach a goal of doubling output.
Copper will trade between $7,700 to $8,800 this year, Nakamura said. Copper for delivery in three months on the London Metal Exchange traded at $7,958.25 a ton at 3:53 p.m. in Tokyo.
Goldman Sachs Group Inc. said yesterday the metal is one of its preferred mining commodities and kept its average price forecast at $8,458 for 2013 and raising next year's estimate to $7,250 from $7,017.
"The market will remain tight because the stock-to- consumption ratio will stay at a low level amid concern over labor disputes at some mines," Nakamura said. The company projects the ratio at 1.4 months in 2013, compared with 1.3 months in 2012, he said.
Supply Growth
Global output will increase 6.8 percent to 21.1 million tons in 2013, while demand will climb 5.3 percent to 20.9 million tons, Nakamura said.
Supply will exceed demand by 330,000 tons in 2013, compared with a deficit of 320,000 tons in 2012, Deutsche Bank said in its Jan. 8 report. Mine-supply growth is expected to increase significantly in 2013, exceeding 8 percent, a rate not witnessed for more than a decade, the bank said.
China's copper output will gain 12 percent to 6.3 million tons in 2013, while demand will rise 5.7 percent to 8.5 million tons, Nakamura said. The country accounted 41 percent of global consumption in 2012, according to Pan Pacific.
China Stockpiles
China's imports of the metal rose 14 percent to 4.6 million tons in 2012, according to data released on Jan. 10 by the Beijing-based Customs General Administration. Stockpiles monitored by the Shanghai Futures Exchange climbed to 209,096 tons last week, the highest level since the week ended April 20.
Inventories in China's bonded warehouses jumped to 1 million tons from 500,000 tons to 600,000 tons in early 2012, Nakamura said. Bonded warehouses are exempt from tariffs and a value-added tax.
"Hefty inventories in China have forced some suppliers to ship the metal to other areas such as Rotterdam in the past months," Nakamura said. Stockpiles in LME Rotterdam warehouses jumped six-fold to 16,575 tons from the end of August, according to data from the bourse yesterday.
In Japan, demand is expected to increase 12 percent to 1 million tons in 2013 on rebuilding after the 2011 earthquake and tsunami and the government's stimulus package, while output will rise 0.5 percent to 1.52 million tons, he said.

Gotta love the M44. If it was a 91/30 with a bayonet, he could just stay on his porch and stick them from 15 feet away.
Gotta wonder what he would've done had they attempted to call him on his move?
He sounds like he wouldn't hesitate to use it, but would he be justified? Based on the reported ransacking of a neighbor's house, I'm thinking...yes.

Starting yesterday, I have had difficulty with some viewing boxes coming up. This is the site I use to check my algebra homework, and the box at the bottom at this link, starting yesterday, isn't coming up for me to put in problems. http://www.purplemath.com/modules/exponent.htm
In addition, I watch some television online, and starting yesterday when I open a file to stream, there is no play button, just a blank screen. As well as that, I have a Tumblr account, and when I try to open my blog as others would see it, I see my background (which I did not change immediately prior to this happening) and not any of my posts or information.
I noticed Tumblr first, and thought it might be the website. Now that it's happening for streaming and checking my math, I am under the assumption that it is my computer. Anyone have any suggestions as to what I can do to fix this?

OK all,
Now THIS is an odd duck....so to speak. From today's San Francisco Chronicle:
SOLANO -- As if crop circles weren't proof enough that extraterrestrials are among us, an alien has now been found in the stomach of a duck.
That, at least, is the conclusion reached by workers at the International Bird Rescue Research Center in Cordelia (Solano County) when they viewed an X-ray image they took of a sick mallard.
Right there, in the duck's ventriculus, or gizzard, is the shocking image of a grimacing, bald-headed being. How it got there, nobody knows, but when an autopsy was performed after the bird died of unrelated causes, the alien had mysteriously disappeared.
"We're a 35-year-old organization, and we've seen a lot of things -- bullets, fish hooks -- but this is the first time anything like this has shown up," said Jay Holcomb, executive director of the bird rescue center, which was founded in 1971 after an oil spill beneath the Golden Gate Bridge. "I don't know my aliens well, but it looks like one of those with the big eyes and the long fingers."
The drake in question arrived at the center Sunday with a broken wing. Workers do not know how the mallard was injured, but it was clearly weak and emaciated. In an effort to pinpoint the trouble, Maria Travers, the assistant rehabilitation manager, took a radiograph image of the bird. She was stunned by what she saw.
"Look at this," she shouted. "It's an alien head!"

It has nine heads.
It has 18 eyes.
It seems to speak its own language.
It can drone a man into a drooling stupor, or it can make decisions faster than most mortals can place a drive-through order at McDonald's.
It comes to life in a sacred spherical dwelling where the light is dim and the curtains are always drawn.
It has been known to enjoy shaking hands.
It is the Phoenix City Council, and I have seen it. I have witnessed it in the flesh, in action, and am here to tell you what I saw. And I swear that every word is true.

There is no mistaking that the lair of the Phoenix City Council (henceforth referred to as the PHOCICO) is an important, hallowed place. Is it a hall? A room? An office? No. It is a "chambers." The Council Chambers. Every Wednesday, the PHOCICO comes here for "formal" meetings to make decisions that will affect the lives of Phoenicians great and small.
But there is no need to fear this place.
In fact, when I entered the downtown council palace, I was greeted by a friendly, well-dressed young woman with the comforting demeanor of an airline hostess. She handed me a program, a "Formal Agenda," and said, "Can I help you find your item?" I assured her that I was well-aware of the location of my item. Little did I know that "items" were what made up the afternoon's agenda, 66 of the things in all. And that, in just a little more than an hour, the mighty PHOCICO would have confronted and dealt with them all in a stunning juggernaut of decision-making.
The agenda informed me of other things:
That I was "now participating in the process of representative government," and that "democracy cannot endure without an informed electorate." The knowledge that I was, in some small way, keeping democracy from drying up and blowing off into the desert to have its bones picked clean by hideous scavenging creatures brought new value to my visit.
Now this part is important.
"Phoenix utilizes a Council-Manager form of local government." As opposed to, say, a totalitarian regime based on terror and mind control. "Policy is set by the Mayor and Council who are elected by the people, and carried out by the City Manager, who is appointed by the Council. The Council decides what is to be done . . ."
And so I sat there in the Chambers along with a scattering of other simple folk, waiting. In front of me, the dais was naked; nine chairs, nine name plates, nine microphones and four golden pitchers of what I can only guess was water awaited the arrival of the PHOCICO. A small flurry of action ensued one aisle over, a large man slowly making his way down, shaking hands and smiling. It was the mayor himself, the leader of the Best Run City in the World, Skip Rimsza, warming up the crowd. Before I knew it, he was standing right in front of me, asking about my item.
"I'm just here to watch," I choked out. He offered his hand, I took it. No words were spoken, yet he smelled of an aftershave I couldn't place, a smell of suits and offices and business.
I glanced back at the agenda. With sexy items like Office Moving Services Requirements Contracts, Purchase of Legal Case Management System--Automobiles, Vans and Light Trucks Requirements Contract, Skunk Creek Landfill Gas Extraction and Flare Station Stirrat Design Contract Change Order, it was tough to choose a favorite.
I decided I'd try to follow item number three, Purchase of Wood Waste Grinder, and item number six, Purchase of Back (Lumber) Support Belts Requirements Contract. It was almost three o'clock, and the meeting was about to begin. I could hardly wait.
The members begin to file in with the kind of supreme, easy casualness that comes with power. Here they are in person, superstars of local government that had previously only been names in the paper to me: Yber-patriot Frances Emma Barwood, the thoughtful, urbane Sal DiCiccio, the confident, relaxed Cody Williams, the tough, laconic John Nelson, the shrewd, jovial Craig Tribken. And the rest.
A man of the cloth steps up at the mayor's behest, Reverend Evan Howard of St. Mary's Basilica, to offer an invocation. He reminds God that the City of Phoenix is our home and reminds us that we should "act justly and love kindly."
Then, to cover all the bases, we say the Pledge of Allegiance. I have not said the Pledge of Allegiance since maybe the fourth grade. I still remember it. There is nothing funny about saying the Pledge of Allegiance.
And then we're off, but before any items are introduced, the PHOCICO will give out November Phoenix Service Awards to a secretary, a detective and two sanitation workers, all of whom had put in 25 or 30 years of service.
The ceremony consists of councilperson Barwood reading off the vital stats of each person's life, their achievements, their passions, things that have characterized their performance on the job ("He is industrious and cheerful") and their family backgrounds, all very quickly in the kind of unemotional monotone one associates with high-school-debate preambles. As this goes on, the honorees approach the dais, where they are treated to a photo-op with Hizzoner and then receive a firm handshake and a prize.
The whole thing is mundane and heartwarming.
A sanitation man by the name of what sounds like Refugio gets a huge clock that he holds like a newborn baby for the picture-taking. This iron horse of trash pickup, who's wearing a bright-orange uniform shirt, has devoted 30 years to Phoenix garbage. As he walks back up the aisle, I give him a thumbs up and am rewarded with a prideful smile that brings a lump to my throat. Though it may be hard to believe, in terms of raw excitement, this will pretty much be the highlight of the afternoon.
Then the PHOCICO moves on to the real business of the day, the blood and guts--the "items." And things get strange. Fast. It's like listening to an auction. Items are presented, votes are taken, things pass or don't, borne ahead by the subtle, judicious taskmaster that is our Rimsza. The afternoon creeps ahead in the amber light of this power chamber.
It's city government working like greased lightning, live and in person; resolutions, orders, licenses and requests have me dizzy with boredom. Before I know it, the two items I had adopted as my personal causes celebres have passed me by in a whirl of "yeas" and "nays."
Oh, yes, Skip and company are good, they're real good.
Occasionally, a citizen will get up and speak out on an item that concerns him or her. At item 19, a man named Meriem E. Abdou rises to plead his case. It's a bit hard to understand him, as Abdou has a thick, Middle Eastern-sounding accent, the type that makes me wonder just how much inspiration and confidence he derived from the nice Christian prayer that opened up this whole thing.
Abdou wants a Series Ten liquor license so he can open up a minimart with two drive-through windows. The local Homeowners Association says it's opposed to the liquor license. There are already enough liquor stores in the 'hood, apparently. Actually, there are only 1.37 liquor licenses per 1,000 residents within a one-mile radius, which does not exceed the "need and convenience threshold" of 2.00. Not by .63 it doesn't. Give poor Abdou his license, let the people of North Glen Square have the booze, I'm thinking.
I wish I could tell you what happened, but it got sort of dull, and I started thinking about Dan Quayle and a press conference I was supposed to go to later, where I ended up getting photographed shaking his hand--which is really something--and by the time I started paying attention again, we were on to item 20-something.
Damn. A tough way to learn that you've got to play heads-up ball at all times when the PHOCICO is "in sesh."
But it isn't all business with these formidable councilnauts; on a couple of occasions, they burst into laughter. But I couldn't even understand their jokes.
"Hey, that's like asking DiCiccio to vote for negative-impact evaluations on the bid purchasing after proposition 18 with maximum dual provisions!" a councilperson would pipe up--or something to that effect--and they'd all lose it. It is like the Algonquin Roundtable. Only very, very different.
Then what else?
Not much. I'd love to have dramatic tales of our local government at work, of citizens hurling invectives and councilpeople standing to deliver enlightened speeches with righteous fervor.
But, really, it just didn't happen that way.
By 4:18, things are over and done with, the agenda a thing of the past. Sixty-six items in 78 minutes. As the council disperses, an overweight man in plastic sweat pants, red tee shirt and elaborate, American Indian-looking necklaces gets up and delivers a speed-rant that involves referring to Mayor Rimsza as a "land baron." The mayor thanks him. I hear the man's sweat pants swish loudly as he strides up the aisle past me.
Barely conscious of the multiple applications that have been granted, of hopes that have been dashed, of dreams that have been fulfilled by the Phoenix City Council, I get up and stagger out of the chamber, into the late-Wednesday sunshine, and to the corner. When the light turns green, I cross.

Thread: Daisy?
June 22nd, 2013 04:26 PM #6
I know two people with the name Daisy, one is about 7 and the other is 17. Despite knowing the older one I still can't see this name on anyone older than 10. I think it's a lovely name, very sweet, and for a short while it was on my list. However in the end I had to admit defeat because I can not, and will not ever, be able to see this name on a fully grown woman.Britberry * Trainee Teacher

A relatively good alternative to nuts, for those who have allergies or simply don't like the taste, is a type of legume commonly referred to as a pulse.
Pulses include lentils, dry beans (e.g.: kidney beans), chickpeas, lupins and many other varieties of legumes. What these foods have in common to nuts is a high protein and fiber content. But they don't provide a source of healthy fats so they do differ from nuts in that regard.

Stoke manager Tony Pulis is looking forward to locking horns with Manchester United at the Britannia Stadium on Sunday. Pulis is desperate for a win after seeing his side slip to within three points of the Premier League relegation zone, but he is aware that Sir Alex Ferguson's team will be keen to bounce back from Monday's 2-1 home defeat to Manchester City. He said: "It's a game that we are looking forward to. This is why you want to be in the Premier League. We have given them good games here before.

United stands on solid result
Page Tools
Infrastructure services company United Group has flagged continued strong profit growth this year as it sets about integrating its new transport and property services acquisitions.
The Sydney-based company yesterday posted an annual net profit of $43 million for 2004-05, up nearly 50 per cent on the previous year.
Chief executive Richard Leupen said United was on track to deliver strong growth in 2005-06 as its trading businesses showed underlying strength and its newest additions Alstom and Premas generated earnings gains.
"Business activity is strong, and all our sectors continue to experience growth rates well above GDP (gross domestic product) and the broader economy," he said.
After spending around $300 million to buy French transport company Alstom and property services company Premas, Mr Leupen said United whose activities span rail, property, water, power, resources and defence would focus on integration.
"We bought them (Alstom and Premas) to grow them, so we need to put a lot of time and effort into managing those acquisitions, and make sure they add the value that we just paid the $300 million for," he said.
"We have significant benefits that flow from our scale into the companies we buy and year on year our overheads fall as a percentage of revenue."
Revenue across the group grew 17 per cent to $1.3 billion in 2004-05 and Mr Leupen said almost 70 per cent of its 2005-06 revenue was already locked in.
Train manufacturer Goninan experienced a 33 per cent increase in revenue to $577.2 million due to demand for passenger and freight trains.
Facilities manager United KFPW, whose revenue jumped 139 per cent to $174.6 million, was the group's other big performer, while revenue for New Zealand-based building and maintenance division United Gooder rose 35 per cent to $62.9 million.
But engineering services division United KG fared less well, its revenue slipping 15 per cent to $443.4 million.
United declared a final dividend of 20¢ a share, bringing the total dividend for the year to 30¢.
Its shares closed 45¢ higher at $10.13.

Located about 12 miles west of Wright, the 6,000-acre Reno Creek project would operate for 20 years with annual production of about 1.5 million pounds a year. It is proposed by AUC, which is a company affiliated with Bayswater Uranium.
Philip Cavender of AUC says the proposed mine is estimated to bring about $90 million to the state in various mineral taxes.
The project would employ 75 full-time workers with an annual payroll of $5.5 million per year.
Judge hears frack disclosure case
CASPER -- A judge heard arguments Tuesday over whether Wyoming regulators should empower the public to look up the ingredients in the chemical products used for hydraulic fracturing, the petroleum industry practice that splits open oil and gas deposits with pressurized water.
The Powder River Basin Resource Council and others say landowners need to know what those chemicals are in case a gas or oil well rupture or some other mishap released pollutants into their well water.
The council sued last year after the Wyoming Oil and Gas Conservation Commission partially denied its request for lists of ingredients in fracking chemicals.
Landowners who don't know which chemicals are used in the fracking process are unable to test their groundwater for those specific substances before any contamination occurs. If pollution were to occur, the companies responsible could plausibly deny they were the ones who caused the problem, attorney Tim Preso argued for the council.
"It's a black box. That's the reason why so many landowners are concerned," Preso told Natrona County District Judge Catherine Wilking.
Attorneys for the commission and the Houston-based oilfield services company Halliburton argued that the ingredients often are closely guarded trade secrets that can be cloaked from public release under Wyoming's open records law.
Public disclosure, they argued, could enable a company's competitors to reverse-engineer their best fracking chemical formulations.
That could discourage companies from using their newest products in Wyoming, they said.
Silencer bill advances
CHEYENNE -- Allowing hunters to use silencers is back on the agenda at the state Capitol.
A Senate committee backed a silencer bill on Tuesday, sending it to the full Senate for debate. The vote came less than two weeks after a House committee rejected an identical bill.
They Wyoming Tribune Eagle reported that Sen. Ogden Driskell of Devils Tower introduced the Senate version of the bill after the House one was defeated.
Wyoming is one of the few western states that bar hunters from using silencers.
Rep. Kathy Davison of Kemmerer is the chairwoman of the committee that rejected the House bill and testified against the Senate version.
She said ranchers and property owners depend on hearing gunshots to know if someone is trespassing on their land.
