Salem Daily News, The (Newspaper) - January 11, 1890, Salem, Ohio THE SALEM DMLY NEWS VOL. IL NO. 9. SALEM, OHIO, SATURDAY, JANUARY 11. TWO Crew Rescued Under Perilous Circumstances. Men of the Shakespeare 'Taken from the Waterlogged YefigeL All Had Been Abandoned Steamer and Saved the Cnfortunate XEW YORK, Jan. steamship tagi which arrived Friday from Bre- ien, brought all the crew of the rrec'ked ship Shakespeare with the ex- eption of the captain, who died before lie rescue and was buried at sea. The bakespeare sailed from Hamburg for bis port about three months ago and us not heard from until December 18, ,-hen she was sighted by the steamship Jestorian. The Shakespeare was then a very bad shape and the crew were uddled together in the bows to escape he water which at intervals swept over he decks. The Nestorian attempted to ake off the men, but as the weather was tormy were unable to do so and the ,-recked vessel was lost sight of during he night. On December 22 the steam- hip Sardinia sighted the Shakespeare nd then no trace of any life on board ould be This report seemed o settle all doubt that the crew would be heard from again. Captain Monroe, of the Stag, on his ,rrival yesterday told the following tory "We left Bremen on December and experienced rough weather until he 21st. when the wind blew a perfect At midnight of that day we iguted rockets and flare lights ahead. Phe temperature Was then below zero. Ye steered m the direction of the dan- rer signals and about nine in the morn- the man on the lookout reported he hull of a vessel. Although there ias a tremendous sea running, we ran s close to tho vessel as we could an'd oimd her to be tho Shakespeare. All ler masts were and the crew were mddled on the deck, lashed to the parts if the bulwark that were loft standing. Vt two o'clock in the afternoon we got L line on board the wreck, but it mapped almost as soon as it was se- ;ured. I then signalled the Shakes- ware that we would stand by them un- il morning. nine the next morning my .econd officer, Mr. Noble, and four sea- nen succeeded in lowering a boat a me was secured on board the Shake- .peare and we then began the work of ransferring the unfortunate seamen. fhere were eighteen in all, Captain Muller having died from exposure. All he men were in very bad condition, nost of thorn being covered with sea wils and some with broken arms. The men when brought otf board the Stag wore made as comfortable as possi- ]le. All of them at first unable U> stand, and though now they are in a ;omparatively good condition several of .hem had a narrow escape from death. Ihe Stag herself had a very rough voy- ige, having taken thirty-one days on a voyage she usually does in sixteen." GREAT NERVE. Chairman of later-State CoBftjniMlon What Might BMB a Frightful with a Madman Intent oa M DETROIT, Mich., Jan. vening Judge Thomas M. Cooley, of Inn Arbor, chairman of the Inter-State Commerce, Commission, was sitting read- ing in his library when his negro coach- man entered, armed with a double-bar- reled shotgun. The judge was satisfied rom his appearance that he had become nsane, but betraying no alarm he asked him what was the matter. The negro replied that he had decided to-kill the whole family, as they talked too much ,nd left him no time to think. The judge betrayed no alarm, and told him he agreed with him and that he would at- tend to it, By the use of consummate tact the iudge succeeded in mollifying the mad- man until he at last laid down his gun, and'at the judge's suggestion left the room. As soon as he was out of hear- ing the judge telphoned to neighbors and in a short time a deputy sheriff jlaced the coachman under arrest. Doubtless a wholesale and most fright- ful tragedy was averted by the nerve md coolness which the distinguished jurist exhibited. Evictions Begun Pa., Jan. jvictioas began Friday. Several fami- lies were ejected at Adrian. The parties Dieted took lodging with their friends ind their household effects were taken iharge of by the miners' committee. No resistance was attempted, but it is ex- Docted that the Italians will resist and :ause trouble to-day. The company give the men the option of going to work at the old rates or being evicted. The miners' committee are making prepara- tions to accommodate the homeless and children. Engineer and Fireman Killed. ST. Joiiv. N. B., Jan.

England Preparing for Another Cam- paign in tiie Feared on Account of Won Carlos. LOXDON, Jan, indications that England is preparing for a fresh campaign in the Soudan, beginning simultaneously from the upper Nile and Suakim have aroused the French gov- ernment from its attitude of lethargy to a realization that it is again to be ig- nored in the interest of British capital- ists and adventurers. Though Don Carlos. Duke of Madrid and pretender to the throne of Spain, makes no sign as yet, it is probable that the moribund condition of the baby King of Spain and the fact that that kingdom is without a Ministry have im- pelled him to burnish up his rusty sword for a fresh campaign for the establish- ment of his alleged rights. Withdrew Their NEW YOHK, Jan. clouds are clearing above the head of Rev. Dr. Joseph H. Rylance, of St. Mark's Pro- testant Episcopal parish. Mr. William V. King, one of the trustees who have been most aggressive against the pas- tor, has seen fit to withdraw all his charges This will end the proceedings in the civil court against Mr. King for libelous utterances. The charges were that Dr. Rylance had been indiscreet with female members of his congrega- tion. _______________ Wants to Match Roy Wilkes Against Adonis. FHANC-SCO, Jan E.

Wo Important Change IB Gnat dustriee-LeM Confident Feeling NEW YORK, Jan. G. Dun Co.'s Weekly Review of Trade says: An asier money market and colder weather las helped business some, but it can not >e denied that the opening trade of the new year has thus far been a little dis- appointing. For this the widely preva- ent sickness is to some extent responsi- >le, as it interrupts operations of buyers ,nd sellers in every direction and less- ens retail trade, except in drugs. In ither branches business has been fairly active, but not up to expectations, though the prevailing belief is that the ack is only temporary, and that a large business is to be expected soon. The .arge payments by the treasury have much relieved the money market, the excess of disbursements over receipts during the past week having been no ess than In general, the foreign demand for American products must have been to some extent satisfied for the present by the unprecedented exports of the past quarter. On tho other hand, specula- ive disturbances at London and Berlin render it'probable that some realization on American investmentsmay be forced, and the action of the Reading company is likely to cause distrust. AJtter official announcements that interest would cer- tainly be paid on the first preference a committee unanimously reports that interest can not be paid. It would not be strange if dissfctisfation with American securities should be much in- creased by such an experience, as this is one of the most conspicuous of all for- eign investments. Respecting money and collections, the situation is about as last reporte'd. Slow collections in dry goods, clothing and groceries at Philadelphia, with money easier; prompt collections in boots and shoes and average in other trades at Chicago, with money firm; a good de- mand at seven per cent, and slow col- lections at Detroit; some stringency at Cleveland, with collections better than was expected considering light country trade, and some stringency at St. Paul, are the more prominent features. In general the interior markets appear fairly well supplied, notwithstanding the large amounts of money sent and South during the past four No important is soen is the great industries. (X ton continues to do well, and woolen goods have opened at last year's prices, but as yet without specially satisfactory indications. The iron trade is still in doubt whether tho increase in productions has been matched by the increase in consump- tion, and while tho prevailing opinion favors higher prices, it may be noticed that moderate lots are occasionally of- fered below current-quotations, while iu bar iron the feeling is loss confident of late; in plate iron tho movement is not very active, and no sales of rails are re- ported.______________ Ten Men Buried in the Wreck. AUGUSTA, Ga., Jan. a fire at the waste factory of the Riverside mills last night, part of the wall and roof fell upon a number of men who were throwing bales of waste stock out of the windows. Two white men and eight negroes were buried in the wreck, but were rescued alive, though all sus- tained more or less injury. Reuben Williams will probably die. Joe Me Cord and Andrew AVilson were seriously hurt. The damage to the mill is 000; covered by insurance. A for Tammany. NEW YORK. Jan. Supreme Court yesterday decided that Genera James C. Duane, a retired officer of the army, is eligible to hold the office of Aqueduct Commissioner.

DEPERE, Wis., Jan.- Treas- urer Edward Vanderwiele was on Thurs- day nighfetthe victim of a robbery to the amount of At the close of the day's business he had in his possession about This amount he was de- sirous of depositing in the bank, and in tiis anxiety to do so before the bank closed he forgot two packages of 8300 and respectively, whtch with other money was separately placed in a pock- etbook. On his way home he entered a saloon on the principal business street, and passed out through the backdoor. While In the alley, he thought to reasovo the pocketbook to an inner vest pocket for greater safety. In the act of doing so he received a violent blowin the breast, the pocketbook was snatched from his hand and the robber ran rapidly down a back street. Ineffectual search was made for the robber. BLOWN TO PIECES. Boiler Explosion Demolishes the Front of a Building In Chicago and Injures Sev- eral Persona. CHICAGO, Jan. terrific boiler explosion occurred Friday afternoon in the basement of the John Morris Sta- tionery and Printing Company, Nos. 118 to 120 Monroe street, causing damage, but no loss of life, though sev- eral of the small army of employes were seriously and many slightly hurt. "The entire Iront Of the building, as per- tains to glass and doorways, was blown like chopped straw into the street and great pieces of heavy plate glass were strewn for half a block around. So great was the force of the explosion that pieces of glass were stuck into the woodwork of buildings across the Street. A part of three floors in the rear of the Morris building were torn up and splin- tered as though by a cyclone. The cause of the explosion is not known. Claimed Salvage from the "Wreck. NEW YOHK, Jan. steamship Aline arrived yesterday with part of the crew of the American schooner Lacka- u-anna, which was totally wrecked at Jerema, December 22. Tho schooner was thrown upon the reef by an incom- petent pilot. When the vessel had gone to pieces a number of beach idlers claimed the salvage. Captain Ford is still at Jerema seeking redress. Accidentally Killed His Mother. PITTSBURGH, Jan ing while John Drake, aged twenty years, was cleaning the cylinder of his revolver, the trigger snapped and the pistol was discharged. The bullet en- tered the head of Drake's mother, who was standing near by, killing her in- stantly. The young man is almost in- sane over the result and attributes it to his own carelessness.

Why the WeU-Kuowo Politician Abandoned Fight Brloe. COLUMBUS, O.. Jan. most as- tonishing phase of the Senatorial cam- paign was that in which Allen O. Myers figured during the early part of this week. He came to towp. with fire in his eye and his tongue loose, and for a time his abuse of lirice was awfuL All at once Myers was missed and has not been seen here since, lloro is the reason for his absence.' It had been his habit, when he first arrived at tho Neil House, to go about the lobbies with a revolver wrapped in a pocket handkerchief, with which he would go through the motions of dusting the coat of any one whom he would take a notion to intimidate. Finally he ran afoul of General L. M. Meilley, the Adjutant General during Governor Bishop's administration. Meil- ley is a brother-in-law of Brice. He lis- tened patiently for some time to the abuse of Brice by Myers, but finally he made a break for Allen and took his re- volver from him. Handing it to the clerk of the Neil House he proceeded to give Myers the worst tongue lashing he ever got in his life, winding up his har- angue by swearing he'd kill Myers on tho least provocation and warning him to get out of town. Allen left the same night and has not been heard of since. His reception here by Democrats was very cold, the Hamilton County mem- bers refusing to talk to him or even lis- ten to him. CL.EVELANPJERS IN' LUCK. Big; Boodle Secured by Forest City Sports Whose Chickens Wou a Great Battle. CLKVELASD, Jan. was learned late Friday afternoon that the big cock- ing mam atChillicothehad been won by Cleveland birds. Twenty-eight roosters were taken from this city and a big crowd of sports went down to Chillicothe to see tho contest, taking with them over to bet on the affair. The battle began at two o'clock Thursday afternoon and continued nearly all night. Of the nineteen fights compris- ing the main, thirteen were won by Cleveland birds and the sports from this aity got rich at the expense of the Cir- cleville, Columbus. Chillicothe and Cin- cinnati men who were in attendance. Six of the crowd who went from here got back Friday afternoon. They stated that all the Clevelanders had made big winnings, the aggregate being way up in the thousands. A Boss County official is said'to have sold tickets for the main, while a Chillicothe oilicial took the pasteboards at the door. The battles were for S50, with on the main. NOT AT ALL PROBABLE. Rumors That Mr. Brice May Tet be De- feated for Senator. COLUMBUS, O., Jan. Colum- bus Dispatch said, Friday afternoon: "Notwithstanding the fact that Mr. Brica received the unanimous vote of the caucus, he maybe defeated for Senator, owing to the fact that the Democrats have only five of a majority on joint bal- lot, one of which is Mr. Knapp, of De- fiance, who is now dead, and Lawler, ol Franklin, who is not expected to live, and three of which of Licking; Kounts, or Shelby, and Smith, of not attend the caucus. It will be readily seen if these three members fail to support the nomi- nee of the caucus the State of Ohio may be represented by a in the Senate.'' _______________ IT WAS FOB REVENGE.

Last night the air pumps were shut off and the wofk of attempting to reach ,he interior of the caisson through the shaft was abandoned. Another caisson will be sunk alongside the old and an effort be made to reach the interior of the caisson room in which the four- .een workmen are entombed, by work- ing from the new caisson. THE WORLD'S TAIR. Claims for the Ex poult Ion of 1892 Presented In an Abie Manner. WASHESOTOS, .tan. quadri- centennial committee of the Senate_met yesterday and heard arguments in favor of holding the World's Fair in Waah- ngton. Secretary Anderson, of the Washington board of promotion, spoke first. He said that ho had received let- .ers from the Governors of forty-one States and Territories accepting mem- bership in the board of promotion, and promising -to co-operate and do all in ;heir power to further tho interests of Washington in the matter. The ex- pense of holding the Exposition should 3 borne by the Government. Washington, he said, was the city of St. Louis, Chicago and New York, for it jelonged to the nation and representa- ;ives from these cities each had a vote directing the government of this city. Washington was fully able to accommo- date all who came. He cited the benefit ;o derived by the erection of perma- nent buildings. General Felix Agnus, of Baltimore, the next speaker, saJd he came as an en- voy from tho State of Maryland to favor Washington as the place for holding the Exposition. The address of General Agnus concluded hearing and the committee adjourned until this morn- ing, when tho claims of New York and Chicago will be heard. KILLED BY HIS MISTRESS. The Illicit Love of a Farmer -for a Widow Ends In a Tragedy. ELMIRA, N.

Headline of the Week: This Year and Next Year in LIS
LIS has now published our Annual Report for the 2009-10 academic year detailing our work over the past year in supporting the information needs of Luther College. The report contains updates on 75 difference strategic objectives LIS pursued over the past year, most of which represent new initiatives we launched or expanded in the past year. It also contains an overview of the focus for the coming year: collaboration, reports from our internal teams on their work for the year and a radar view of changes on the horizon in our services and service models.
While the report is notable for the breadth and depth of information it covers (and the diverse range of services provided by LIS), it is also notable for the collaborative effort it represents in the work we do together, and the shared effort to document the work for the community. The report has been compiled with input from most if not all and is a true collective representation from the past year.
Also published today is our annual Snapshot intended as a high-level overview of where we've been and where we're going.
While it is great to celebrate a year closed, we simultaneously look forward to the 2010-11 academic year already underway. Our annual report also contains our initial collection of strategic objectives for the coming year. Each objective maps to one of our ten organizational goals.

I agree with I love to skate's take on it, if Joannie's goal was to skate like that at Nats, it was a one-time thing, I don't believe it's representative of what she tries to accomplish with her skating.
I agree with I love to skate's take on it, if Joannie's goal was to skate like that at Nats, it was a one-time thing, I don't believe it's representative of what she tries to accomplish with her skating.
mathman has said several times that he sees no difference between the SP and LP these days. Actually, I am beginning to see more freedom and expressive skating in many SP's. Too many LP's do look to me like a "paint by numbers" approach to skating.
Watching LP's at times I think about being set loose in a grocery store with $2,000.00 dolars and being told you have 4 minutes to cram as much stuff into your shopping cart as possible.
Maybe others see most skaters showing us a sense of freedom and originality in their LP's but that feels more like the exception rather than the rule to me today.
Actually, the initial question on this thread is an interesting one. Do we really remember and cherish the way a skater used music in a competitive performance, long after the preformance is over?
I remember Ilia Kulik landing a huge quad at the 1998 Olympics. I don't remember what music was playing.
The Battle of the Brians was thrilling. I do not remember what either of them skated to.
Two of the most memorable performances of all time (for me) were Michelle Kwan's Red Violin and Song of the Black Swan, as performed at 2000 Worlds and 2001 Worlds. Although I remember the names of the programs, I cannot whistle the tunes of either of these pieces.(The farther a skater strays from Carmen, the harder is is to make the music memorable. )
Exhibitions, now, that's another story. Michelle's East of Eden and Fields of Gold utilized every note. We can't imagine the performance without the music.
yes but dont tell me you dont remember the yellow kulik costume he skated to same music like evan's lp last year. Thats a good hint?
Brian 1 skated to Napoleon, it is in my ipod as a fav, I dont know Brian 2 what he skated to.
and the good about carmen is that you can bring back the tune any time of the day
This thought is what I believe is key to her feelings on music and skating:
"Many competitors can execute good and well choreographed programs, highlighted by difficult and spectacular elements, but very few are those who are able to transform a good program into a piece of art, a program that we would like to watch forever."
I am the first to agree this is subjective. The programs I may watch are different that what others like to watch. And our tastes can change. Lately I have been looking at Yags and my respect for his skating has grown. A few months ago I was watching Chen-Lu. After the Olympics it will be someone else.
There are many memorable programs that have been created over the years. I don't think how much we recall the music is the key - but think it has more to do with how the skater was able to combine the choreography with the music to create something unique that touched us emotionally.

How many long programs from any given season pre-COP would you consider great? Lets pick the 2002-2003 season (or any season)
Last edited by ImaginaryPogue; 01-31-2010 at 02:35 PM.
Both of these I remember as much for the techical excellence as for the artistic/emotional side.
Also, on the issue of "robotically checking off the elements," another way to say the same thing is, you get in a zone and everything just happens automatically. I think this can apply to the artistic components as well as to jumps. My favorite figure skating quote is from Shizuka Arakawa, commenting on skating on cruise control.
By the time I came to, my program was half over.
I recall Sasha said something similar about her Torino LP, saying something like after her opening mistakes she just forgot about everything and skated the rest of the program from muscle memory.
Pogue mentioned 2002 - and that seems like it should be easy to remember because it was an Olympic year.
I don't know the story about Michelle but I remember she left Carroll and then either changed her LP choreo and maybe also split with Lori only a month or two before the Olympics.
Anyway, Yags and Plushy skated good LP's on their way to winning the the Gold and Silver.
The women, especially Michelle are harder to consider. I am in a minority as I thought Sasha had a very entertaining LP and if she had not missed her opening 3x3 she would have medaled.
Irina's LP was good but she did not skate it so well in SLC.
For moments - well that belonged to Sarah as she had the skate of her life on home ice.
My favorite though was Jamie and David. (already ducking ). Given a little room by mistakes we all saw, they skated so well and whether it was the best Pairs LP - for me it was easily the most inspired.

But first, Re: Joannie.. I watched that program with bated breath ,knowing the season she'd had up to that point..and I just knew that there would be those who would seize on her use of the word robot in her interview. Putting the whole interview in context , I understood her to be referring to the muscle memory that comes from constant repetition of a program ( that any skater hopes to acheive to counteract the many distractions , nervousness, etc. that can happen in competition ). Let's not forget that although Joannie's English is now very good , she sometimes has to reach to find just the right word.I found the program very controlled,but hardly robotic. It had to boost her confidence to skate that well after her earlier struggles..I hope to see her skate with a little more abandon in Vancouver.
Does she make my list of the most artistic skaters? No....but she's very far from the least , and on those occasions when she is able to let go that little degree extra the whole effect can be pretty enjoyable.
Now, I'm off to wrack my brain about 2003.
Anyway, even for women it's subjective who has charisma and who doesn't. Plushenko and Joubert do nothing for me. I like their skating just fine, especially Plushenko's. But for some reason their substituting flirtation for artistry doesn't resonate with me at all. I much prefer the Jeremy Abbott's brand of artistry. But I have a friend who salivates for Plushenko. Go figure.
I think it's true that most great skaters are remembered not for their jumps. But there are exceptions, like Midori Ito, whose jumping ability was so surpassing for her time that she had something of the "it" factor anyway. But I have this sense that 6.0 was actually nicer to those types of skaters because they had more freedom to choreograph their program in such a way that highlights their strengths and not their weaknesses. Imagine Midori Ito trying to do a CoP program, with the three position spiral requirement. I for one am glad we got to see the 6.0 sytem Midori Ito instead.
Maybe CoP gives an advantage to the jumpers in the sense that it may not punish hard enough for sloppy positions and robotic skating. But it doesn't do anything for the jumpers in the sense of giving them the chance to put on the most charismatic performance they can.
The Midori-Kristi rivalry was a true competition between the artist and the athlete. But it was fun to watch. Under this system, I sometimes get the sense that the competitors are forced to try to be the same skater. I understand it's meant to make things fairer and more objective. But I think it's killing the individuality of the sport a little. The kind of individuality that let Midori Ito shine in her own way.

In my opinion there were two memorable programs at the 2002 Olympics, both short programs. Yagudin's Winter and Berezhnaya and Sikharudlidze's Lady Caliph.
That is an interesting choice on a thread about music. Sale and Pelletiere abandoned Orchid for the musically and choreographically slighter Love Story, their LP from two years previous. Orchid (Rachmaninov) and, for that matter, the previous season's Tristan and Isolde (Wagner) had much greater artistic depth. (OT -- I have a copy of the CD, with liner notes autographed by Lori Nichol. )My favorite though was Jamie and David. (already ducking ). Given a little room by mistakes we all saw, they skated so well and whether it was the best Pairs LP - for me it was easily the most inspired.
Anyway, Jamie and David struggled all season with Orchid. In the Grand Prix Final that year the skaters had to do two different LPs. So Jamie and David did Orchid and Love Story. Love Story was an easier program, it worked much better for them, so they decided to use it in the Olympics.
Ironically, Elena and Anton went the other way. Their previous season LP was their all-time masterpiece (IMHO), Charlie Chaplin. But for the Olympics they went with the more "classic" (i.e., generic) Meditation.
And ITA about Yagudin's Winter and B/S's Lady Caliph. Those SPs deserved 6.0s all across the board and unanimous 1st place ordinals.
What are you saying, 2003 was great year!!! Michelle Aranguez, Plushy St Peters 300, Stephane Chocolat, Arakawa Swan lake (), S/Z ex time to say goodbye, Solokova Notre Damme, Irina La Traviata..I dont remember other now...
oh i remembered Sasha Malaguena. Although I liked it next year with the canary dress!

They skated last, or atleast after the Russians and knew they had to be perfect and that''s how they skated.
You mentioned "Winter" but Pogue had said "LP's.
Seems like I am not the only one confused. BTW, I am not a big "Rachmaninov" fan.
The point of Bianchetti's article as I understand it has nothing to do with "great music makes great programs."
I understand it as skating musically is important and part of what helps make certain programs memorable. I don't see it as Bianchetti claiming a great program depends on great music.
ETA: Speaking of exhibitions Kristi comes to mind. She skated to some programs with light/Pop music that were performed so "musically" that I still remember them. She was such a versatile skater, able to handle so many different styles of music.
Her range and abilty to handle various styles of choreo sets her apart from most skaters.

(I'm hungry.)
I've found my new favorite granola... right here in Shreveport. Made by the most darling girl.
When my parents were here, I met Bethany (her and her husband Paul are the owners of Aidan's Place). She makes her own granola in a ton of different flavors right out of her own kitchen.
She had samples...
I never pass up free samples.
And because of that amazing sample, I bought the Cranberry surprise. Love it! My mom got the blueberry (which we ate with yogurt and fresh blueberries when we got up the next morning... so good!)
Not only does she have wonderful granola making skills, but she is also a philanthropist.
Aidan's Place also provides 200 "Blessings in a Bag" monthly to local areas that desperately need nutritious food (like orphanages) that are struggling to feed the children they take care of. What an amazing ministry in our community!
I also love the verse she adds on her labels and business cards.
Psalms 34:8
O taste and see that the Lord is good. Blessed is the man that trusts in him.
This video will get you movin. Trust me.
Prestonwood Baptist Church, Dallas, TX
The Lord is good... SO GOOD!
Thank you Bethany for introducing me to your fabulous granola, but more importantly, your ministry and mission. I know you are making a huge impact on our community, feeding the hungry and those needing to hear the love of Christ.
I encourage all of you to check out Aidan's Place today, and order some fabulous granola (online) or pick some up at the various retailers around the state of Louisiana. You won't be disappointed and you will also help Bethany provide more bags to those in need. It's a Win Win to me!

were serial rapists, who drank heavily, attacked visitors in gangs, lusted after the power of angels, knew first hand of God but refused morality and cheated and lied and thieved. And raped. RAPED. Over and over. In mobs.
Do you mean to tell me that God destroyed them for sexual orientation?
They weren't even gay. They had wives.*
"Lot said: Your wives, who are like my daughters, are better for you!" (Qur'an 15:71)
*Yes, I realize gay men can be married to women. But why the hell would they want to be married to women if they were openly gay and didn't have to be married to women? Because they weren't actually gay. (The same way prison rape is executed by heterosexual men with the intent to "lower" the victim's status to that of a woman.)
That same verse (15:17) is the reason everyone concludes that the tribe was destroyed because of sexual orientation: Lot clearly points out, of all the sins the people were committing that he could have chosen from, the sin of anal sex. Anal rape, to be clear.
But that's because the sick bastards were nearly tearing down his door in attempt toanally rape the visitors at that very moment. What else would you be thinking about?! Mentioning any other sin would be preposterous.
Imagine this:
*angry disgustingly lustful mob of rapists about to tear down Lot's door*
Lot: You know, y'all are cheaters and liars. You should really stop.
Notice that in the verse Lot did not say women. He specifically said YOUR WIVES. There is a verse in which he says women, but because every other verse says YOUR WIVES we can safely assume that in that verse by women he meant your wives. (Because he obviously wasn't telling them to rape women instead of men. He was telling them to have consensual sex with their wives.) They weren't just rapists, they were adulterers. That is an inversion. Correction: they weren't just adulterers, they were rapists. And in his moment of desperation he was looking for anything–anything!–to make them stop, and so he cried, why are you doing this when you have wives at home to fulfill your sexual desires?
Most Muslims will actually acknowledge that being gay is not a sin: anal sex is a sin. For hetero couples also. It's forbidden. In fact, you'll find legal opinion implying that lesbianism isn't really a violation of anything, because supposedly there's no anal sex involved. Supposedly.
And they ask thee concerning menstruation. Say, 'It is a harmful thing, so keep away from [sexual intercourse with] women during menstruation, and go not in unto them until they are clean. But when they have cleansed themselves, go in unto them as God has commanded you.' (Qur'an 2:222)
This verse speaks of all sexual intercourse, or else it would have specified that anal sex is still permitted (because menstruation is vaginal.) Because it didn't make specifications, there is an implication that anal sex is always prohibited, and hadith to confirm this.
But according to the definition of a lot of Muslims, you can't really be gay unless you have anal sex. Or you're not really gay or something. This is deeply problematic, because in addition to being untrue, the whole "being gay is a sin!" comes from there. And annoying, because every time it comes up there's always a need to explain the difference before we can move on with the discussion.
They'll agree that simply being gay–and not engaging in anal sex–is not a sin, because its understood in Islam that sinful thoughts =/= sin. A sin must be an action. In fact, if you think about sinning, but you don't actually sin, in some cases it counts a good deed, since you've avoided a temptation. Thinking a good thought, however, also counts as a good deed–and carrying out a good thought counts as two.
That being said, even if one interprets this verse to mean that anal sex itself is haraam, there are like a quadrillion ways to have sex.
Recap: Being gay is not a sin. Having anal sex–between anyone, including a man and a woman–is a sin. The people of Sodom were destroyed for a number of things, the main sin being rape–which, yes, happened to be anal rape–but "homosexual activity" (it feels offensive to use this term but I can't think of anything else to describe how they view this) itself was not among the sins that ultimately destroyed them, because–if you recall–the women were destroyed as well. Lot's wife was specifically mentioned to have been destroyed. Had God destroyed the tribe for "being gay" (which they weren't) or even for anal sex rather than for being serial gang rapists who lusted after the power of angels and defied morality despite having full knowledge, the women would have remained.
Should an Islamic community write and enforce laws penalizing a man for having anal sex with another man? Only if they'd do the same for a man having anal sex with a woman. But the latter doesn't happen, does it? You know why it doesn't happen? Because it's none of your business what anyone does in their bedroom. But, like, that only applies if you're straight, apparently.
The emphasis Muslims place specifically on gay people having sex is highly questionable. Why are straight people allowed to transgress sexual limits of permissibility in a Muslim community, but not gay people? Why aren't there Muslims who are like YOU SHOULD BE KILLED when a man reveals that he's been having anal sex with his wife? The proper response in either situation would be to look at the guy like, dude, does your partner know you're telling me this?
I'll tell you why: because it has nothing to do with religion and everything to do with homophobia. How else does a supposedly righteous person conclude that it is permissible to rape a woman to "cure" her lesbianism? Where would you get this? Other than out of your ass, which no, is not a very scholarly place despite what you may believe. Have you not seen that God has destroyed civilizations for the crime of rape?
Some people still believe that having anal sex it is not a sin, and they have their own reasons for concluding this, and I don't really care either way. It's the same disinterest I have with other things that don't affect me and don't affect anyone other than the person who actually practices it, or–in this case–are completely irrelevant in relation to whether we should allow people their right to privacy and other human rights. It's like the nature vs. nurture debate when it comes to homosexuality. I don't care if you think they were or weren't born gay–that has nothing to do with my argument that you should not be policing their sex lives or violating their human rights. Similarly, I don't care if you think anal sex is halaal or haraam–that also has nothing to do with my argument that you should not be policing their sex lives or violating their human rights.
Edit: Interestingly, studying Greek literature in which men take other men as "true" lovers gives another perspective to the story of Lut: the men may have not in fact genuinely loved men with sexual desire like gay people, but instead hated women and viewed women as tools to deliver babies, not as equals to genuinely love. Another angle of misogyny in a town of rapists.

Never argue with an idiot. They will only bring you down to their level and beat you with experience. MB Rule # 1
It's funny how when our line plays well, like in 2008 AB's vision was never called into question. Now that are line has struggled in run blocking now it's AB's fault the running game isn't as dominant. AB was and is a great cutback runner with really good vision. When the holes are there he hits them. He doesn't hit the hole as fast as Brown, but his vision and running lane choice are far from poor. When the line struggled AB struggled. Because Brown is more of a one cut and go RB his running style is more conducive to an average run blocking team like we were in 2012.
RBs in general, except for rare instances, are just like QBs, receiving way too much credit for success and too much blame for a poor running game. I'll take a great O-line and a crap back over a good RB and a crappy Oline any day of the week.
.....Wow. Not sure why u would think brown is one of the best backs in the nfl... He has only rushed for 100 yds in one game in his career and got injured when given the chance to step up and prove he is an every down back. In a league where there are now so many proven rbs, saying he is one the best in the nfl is a ridiculous stretch. Maybe u or someone else can enlighten me?

maybe I should've asked that first^ before hating on his top rb comment

The Russian connection: See all our coverage | Read about our investigation
Following an afternoon of protests outside both a Wells Fargo branch and Mitt Romney's Des Moines headquarters on Wednesday, 15 or so Occupy Iowa demonstrators regrouped at their headquarters. Nathan Adeyemi, a member of Occupy Cedar Rapids hailing from eastern Iowa, called for volunteers to help disrupt a Ron Paul campaign appearance set to begin a half hour later. "I've been looking forward to it all day," Adeyemi told me on the short car ride to the State Fairgrounds.
But when the handful of protesters arrived at the building in which Paul would speak, it was clear that a last-minute mic check effort would be difficult to pull off. More than 500 people, many of them avid Paul supporters, were waiting out a series of endorsement speeches and patriotic sing-alongs that felt a bit like the opening act of a rock show.
Paul soon took the stage, and as Adeyemi started shouting for the mic-check he was quickly surrounded by Paul supporters. Many began cheering to drown out Adeyemi's recitation of the script he'd brought, which criticized Paul for opposing abortion rights and supporting the elimination of social programs. One Paul supporter escorted him out of the building while members of the media crowded around Heather Ryan and her 16-year-old daughter Heaven Chamberlain, two of about 12 protesters left in the building (another four had yet to arrive). The mother and daughter linked arms with the other protesters and were forced to the back of the auditorium as Paul supporters yelled at them. The small group had barely been able to disrupt Paul's speech, with just a brief chuckle coming from the candidate when he heard Adeyemi's initial "mic-check!" call.
Despite the tension between the protesters and Paul supporters, they shared some common ground. Occupier Clarke Davidson carried an "End the Fed" sign, echoing a key demand of many Paul supporters. But Davidson said he refuses to support Paul because he isn't running as an independent and remains a participant in a broken political system.
For some of the protesters, the thwarted mic-check was still a worthy effort to call attention to what they see as the candidate's pseudo-populism. "I particularly dislike Ron Paul because of his use of popular language to try to make himself appear to be a person who represents the interests of the poor and the middle class," Adeyemi explained. "He's trying to basically co-opt the vote of people who are frustrated with the establishment."
Ryan, a veteran of the Gulf War, said that although she is a peace activist she considers Paul's non-interventionist foreign policy to be "naive."
Other protesters were plainly frustrated with the lackluster results of their effort to disrupt the event. "It was bad, it was a bust," said Katie Coyle, of Coralville, Iowa. "They out-shouted us." Still, she said, "we did get a lot of cameras on us."
UPDATE, Thursday, December 29: On Thursday morning, five Occupy Iowa protesters were arrested for blocking the entrance to Ron Paul's campaign headquarters in the Des Moines suburb of Ankeny. They protested Paul's opposition to the Environmental Protection Agency, and among those arrested was Clarke Davidson, who reportedly said that he was a Paul precinct captain as police cuffed him. "But I'm here in solidarity," he said. "I don't support every single position Ron Paul holds."

This is one of the few times I'm glad that that first scene was left out. It was just not interesting, with too much Nellie and Packer. Dwight's "Well I'll have SEX with it!" was the only good part of the first scene.
- Kelly
Awww I wish they had left the Pam/Jim phone call in! Then we would know that Pam KNEW Cathy (Kathy?) was in the room. That was my major question at the end of the episode – where does Pam fit into this? Plus, the look on Jim's face at the end of the phone call was adorable.
- daniel g
While I agree it's nice to see Pam and Jim's relationship is that strong, I kinda wish they did put some turmoil in everything. Nothing bad happening but give them doubt for a second. Shake it up, no relationship is perfect.
- SarahM
Interesting scene with Pam – wish they'd left that part in. An awkward surprise for her, of course, but she seemed to quickly grasp the truth of the situation and handled the conversation with grace. If deleted scenes are still considered part of the canon/continuity (read that somewhere once), then it looks like the writers aren't going to go for the silly, drawn-out, soap opera angst between Jim and Pam that I'd been dreading. Good!
[ from tanster: yes, deleted scenes are canon. ]
- Taylor
Ugh, the Pam & Jim deleted scene was perfect. The fact that they left it out scares me…unless they're going to pull another Philip scenario & never mention it again…
- Shay
The Jim and Pam scene was super cute! I was one of those people who was hoping for a bit of drama though. Is it possible that there still might be a minor continuation of this storyline? I mean, SOMETHING has to happen with Cathy eventually whether she stays in Florida or not. (Part of me hopes she comes back to Scranton and we still get a bit between her and Pam). Wait and see I guess…
- Kyle
@#5 I assume they left it out so that there would be at least a tiny amount of suspense as to whether or not anything would happen between Jim and Cathy.
- Karen
Absolutely loved the Pam and Jim deleted scene. While I could handle a little trouble, I'm fine with keeping them away from angst. It's such a rare thing on tv that I admire them for being outside the box. Plus when you get such an adorable smile from Jim it can't be wrong.
- Jen Z
Yay! So, so glad to see the Pam and Jim conversation. It makes me feel so much more at ease. I imagine there could still be some angst though….Cathy could really continue to rock the boat if she goes back to Scranton. I for one would love to see Pam stick up for herself and confront Cathy. That would make for an interesting scene :-)
- Mari
Can someone please tell me what that Jim-Pam scene was about? NBC has blocked it from viewers from Europe!
- drunkbiking
The Pam/Jim scene was well acted but it's good they cut it. It killed what little suspense there was, and maybe they shouldn't even have released it. Because they could milk more awkwardness and humor out of Pam finding out about it all later on.
- Jessie
I love Jim and Pam! I don't care about there not being angst or tension, they just make me happy! I love that she immediately understood what her husband was going through, and how sympathetic she was. And the look on his face at the end of the call! He still loves her more than anything.
- Bob
Pam direct-dialed Jim's room, without going through the hotel operator. Isn't that impossible? If I'm not mistaken, hotel room phones don't have their own phone numbers. And why wouldn't she call him on his cell phone? And don't get me started on obsessive Office fans who go over every video with a fine-tooth comb!
- Maureen
No secrets! Just watch the first 3 seasons and how sad it was for JAM!
- Underday Ifflinmay Abresay
To all the people who thought there was going to be a snake in Jim's room – guess they turned out to be right after all.
- Joel
@drunkbiking The deleted scenes are canon so I guess they don't want to milk it.
- b0nni3_sf
Am I the only one who thinks you can see the tag from pam's blouse showing through the front? If I'm right, then those guys are all a bunch of jerks. I'd be royally pissed off if I had my blouse on backwards for the entire day and no one had the decency to tell me…lol
- Whitmom
For a split second, it looks like a tag on Pam's blouse, but it's the satin-finish stripe going down the front.

This conference changes students' lives.
That's the consensus area English educators have formed regarding the Key West Literary Seminar, which this year ran from Jan. 10 through 20, at the San Carlos Institute, on Duval Street.
In its 31 years, this famed get-together, which brings a galaxy of book world stars and their most dedicated readers to the Southernmost City, has grown to become an important component of the curriculum of educators such as Kerri McLean of Key West High School and Hilary Parmentier of Florida Keys Community College.
The seminar itself may be over for now, but its ripple effects will be felt by the students in these teachers' classes, as the lineup for the next event shapes this year's studies.
"I can't say enough good things about the Literary Seminar," said Parmentier, who currently serves as an FKCC English faculty member at the Key West campus. "Last year I contacted them about becoming a volunteer, and they made me aware of some scholarship opportunities that were available. One of my students wrote a short story, which resulted in a scholarship, and we ended up with two tickets, which about 15 of my students were able to use for the various workshops. This year, they gave us as many tickets as we needed, so about 35 of my students were able to attend. They've been very generous."
Parmentier said that for many of her students, including the ones who were born and raised in town, it took the seminar to really bring to life the literature they were studying, and the writers who created it.
"These students don't often get a chance to see Key West as the artists' mecca that it is," Parmentier said. "They may not have known about the rich literary experiences that have taken place in this town. The reading that we do in class is made so much better by this event."
Poet Billy Collins was among the writers Parmentier's pupils had a chance to meet this year. For the students, who had been studying Collins' work in class, it was a "humbling but helpful" experience. Other authors, such as Judy Blume and Margaret Atwood, made attending the seminar extra special for the students, Parmentier added.
In addition to the seminar events, the 100 or so audio-file online library that seminar Associate Director Arlo Haskell has been building up has provided another dimension to Parmentier's teaching.
"When we're analyzing literature, hearing the author recite their own piece adds another layer to what we're doing," the English professor said. "You get to hear the work the way the author intended for it to be heard. It helps us achieve a depth of analysis that wasn't there before. It's also how I show the students what the seminar is all about."
Parmentier noted that at this point, she has begun to partially shape her curriculum around the seminar, focusing on some of the authors who will be participating in the upcoming event.
"I've definitely been tailoring our program to fit what's going to happen," she said. "We start preparing for the seminar in the fall, and even during the spring to some degree. It's helpful for my students to familiarize themselves with the writers who are going to be speaking. Otherwise it could be a little overwhelming for them."
Over at Key West High School, English teacher Kerri McLean views the seminar through the same lens as Parmentier.
"I've been involved for about 15 years now," she said. "I used to have my students attend the Sunday sessions, which are open to all. They'd go and get really excited to see and meet the writers that they knew about."
McLean, too, credits the seminar organizers for making sure that she had a ticket each year. Over time, this annual gift mushroomed into five or six passes, which were eagerly utilized by her students.
McLean is the chairwoman of the school's English Department and an adviser to The Key West High School Snapper newspaper. She also teaches Advanced Placement English Language and Contemporary Literature Honors courses.
Like Parmentier, she revels in the fact that her students have been able to meet famed authors they were studying in class, such as the aforementioned Billy Collins, and also Jamaica Kincaid and Barbara Ehrenreich.
"One year we read Jamaica Kincaid in class, and then we went to the seminar, and they met her and fell in love," McLean said. "Later that year there was a question about her on their Advanced Placement exams, and they rocked it. It was serendipitous. Also, we don't read Judy Blume in my class, but many of my students have read her before. When they find they're sitting next to her at the seminar, they can't contain themselves. We have a great time, but it's a serious endeavor."
McLean pointed out that former KWHS students who were exposed to the seminar, such as Nick Vagnoni, and Arlo Haskell himself, have gone on to careers in the literary fields. (Vagnoni is currently an English instructor at Florida International University.)
Already, McLean is preparing her classes for the 2014 seminar, titled "The Dark Side: Mystery, Crime & the Literary Thriller."
"They're going to have people like Les Standiford and Michael Connelly," she said. "We'll read excerpts from their works, which are linked on the seminar site, and the students will write about the material before and after the seminar once they've listened to them speak and reflected upon their presentations."
Parmentier, McLean and their students aren't the only beneficiaries of the seminar's largess.
"As an organization with a national profile, we also provide scholarships to teachers and college-age students throughout the country; and our audio archives are a valued resource in many of their classrooms," Haskell wrote in a recent email to The Citizen. He added that a number of mentors with the Take Stock in Children program also utilize the seminar's archives when teaching their mentees.
"There seems to be more discussion in the community lately over the role of arts and culture in the city," Haskell continued. "With the new arts component of the city's strategic plan, and the Community Foundation's series of forums exploring the issue, I think it's a good time to consider how organizations like ours contribute to education in the county-- and hopefully to further a discussion of how county leaders, nonprofits and teachers might work together to do more for our students."
Yet another firm believer in the educational work of the Literary Seminar is Maureen McKloski at the Florida Department of State Division of Cultural Affairs.
"She recently discovered our archives and has been excitedly pushing the material for use by the Florida Alliance for Arts Education, as well as other Florida and national arts and education groups," according to Haskell.
The seminar and its archives, which are the recipient of grants from McKloski's department, are "doing amazing work," McKloski said. "It's a gift. Otherwise we would not be able to have access to that information. It's just phenomenal."

This study seeks to validate the relationship that exists between transformational leadership styles and organizational culture types that purports to support an organization's performance. The study further determines if there is any substantive relevance to the argument proposed by scholars in leadership theory that an organization's culture predicating on its performance, specifically in public sector organizations. The purpose of this quantitative research is to develop a model by mapping the relationship between a specific style of leadership that best complement an organizational culture types thereby enhancing organizational effectiveness; thus adding to the body of knowledge that currently exists. Improving organizational performance and service quality should be the focus and emphasis of organizational leadership. In order to enhance organizational effectiveness, leaders of both public and private sector organizations must articulate clearly the organizational goals and objectives that permeate their internal environment. It is imperative that the organization aligns its leadership and culture with its strategic philosophies, which are two critical constructs in defining the performance of the organization. A leader's job is infinite and the chief executive officer (CEO) of the organization must be vigilant at all times knowing that the success or failure of the organization ultimately is the leader's responsibility. It is not surprising therefore that research shows that between 35% and 50% of all CEOs are replaced within five years which should be a major concern to any organization. Transformational leadership, it has been argued, holds the answers to the paradox of leadership that is so common in public sectors organizations, and builds on the premise that the ability of the organization to maintain its identity and sense of direction rests heavily on its leaders.
