The Confessions of Saint Augustine HTML version
Book V
Accept the sacrifice of my confessions from the ministry of my tongue, which Thou hast
formed and stirred up to confess unto Thy name. Heal Thou all my bones, and let them
say, O Lord, who is like unto Thee? For he who confesses to Thee doth not teach Thee
what takes place within him; seeing a closed heart closes not out Thy eye, nor can man's
hard-heartedness thrust back Thy hand: for Thou dissolvest it at Thy will in pity or in
vengeance, and nothing can hide itself from Thy heat. But let my soul praise Thee, that it
may love Thee; and let it confess Thy own mercies to Thee, that it may praise Thee. Thy
whole creation ceaseth not, nor is silent in Thy praises; neither the spirit of man with
voice directed unto Thee, nor creation animate or inanimate, by the voice of those who
meditate thereon: that so our souls may from their weariness arise towards Thee, leaning
on those things which Thou hast created, and passing on to Thyself, who madest them
wonderfully; and there is refreshment and true strength.
Let the restless, the godless, depart and flee from Thee; yet Thou seest them, and dividest
the darkness. And behold, the universe with them is fair, though they are foul. And how
have they injured Thee? or how have they disgraced Thy government, which, from the
heaven to this lowest earth, is just and perfect? For whither fled they, when they fled
from Thy presence? or where dost not Thou find them? But they fled, that they might not
see Thee seeing them, and, blinded, might stumble against Thee (because Thou forsakest
nothing Thou hast made); that the unjust, I say, might stumble upon Thee, and justly be
hurt; withdrawing themselves from thy gentleness, and stumbling at Thy uprightness, and
falling upon their own ruggedness. Ignorant, in truth, that Thou art every where, Whom
no place encompasseth! and Thou alone art near, even to those that remove far from
Thee. Let them then be turned, and seek Thee; because not as they have forsaken their
Creator, hast Thou forsaken Thy creation. Let them be turned and seek Thee; and behold,
Thou art there in their heart, in the heart of those that confess to Thee, and cast
themselves upon Thee, and weep in Thy bosom, after all their rugged ways. Then dost
Thou gently wipe away their tears, and they weep the more, and joy in weeping; even for
that Thou, Lord, -not man of flesh and blood, but -Thou, Lord, who madest them, re-
makest and comfortest them. But where was I, when I was seeking Thee? And Thou wert
before me, but I had gone away from Thee; nor did I find myself, how much less Thee!
I would lay open before my God that nine-and-twentieth year of mine age. There had
then come to Carthage a certain Bishop of the Manichees, Faustus by name, a great snare
of the Devil, and many were entangled by him through that lure of his smooth language:
which though I did commend, yet could I separate from the truth of the things which I
was earnest to learn: nor did I so much regard the service of oratory as the science which
this Faustus, so praised among them, set before me to feed upon. Fame had before
bespoken him most knowing in all valuable learning, and exquisitely skilled in the liberal
sciences. And since I had read and well remembered much of the philosophers, I
compared some things of theirs with those long fables of the Manichees, and found the
former the more probable; even although they could only prevail so far as to make
judgment of this lower world, the Lord of it they could by no means find out. For Thou

EpidemiologyBell's palsy or idiopathic facial paralysis is a disease caused by inflammation of unknown origin affecting the facial nerve resulting in acute paralysis of one side of the face. The condition may cause considerable emotional distress because of its characteristic appearance drooping appearance around the eye and mouth thus adversely effecting self-esteem and life experience. Bell's palsy is seen in approximately 2 to 3 people per 10,000 and may resolve by itself within a few months with severe cases taking up to one year. Unfortunately, up to 10% of patients will experience some degree of permanent paralysis. Conventional treatment includes corticosteroids, antiviral agents, massage, painkillers, botulinum toxin and surgery.
The incidence rates of Bell's palsy are similar around the world and range between 20 to 32.7 per 100,000 at any one calendar year (Brandenburg and Annegers 1993; DeDiego, Prim et al. 1999; Peitersen 2002). The condition affects similar numbers of males and females and exhibits seasonal variation of incidence with fewer cases in warmer weather (De Diego, Prim et al. 1999). The greater majority of Bell's palsy patients first noticed their palsy in the morning which suggests that the onset and development of facial palsy occurs during sleep when circulatory dynamics are reduced (Kanoh, Nomura et al. 2005). The right side of the face is affected more often than the left (63%) and diabetes as well as pregnant females in the third trimester exhibit increased incidence (Ahmed 2005).
AetiologyThe facial nerve enters the skull via a small opening in the petrous temporal bone at the base of the skull. The facial nerve services the muscles of the face, the ear, salivary and tear glands and provides some of the sensations of taste on the tongue. In Bell's palsy, the facial nerve swells and the resulting inflammation disrupts the relay of nervous system messages by nerve compression and degeneration. The subsequent lack of nerve function can be partial or total and mainly prevents facial movement, though salivation, tear production, and facial sensation may also be reduced (Kasse, Ferri et al. 2003). A diagrammatic pathway of the facial nerve has been included as appendix A.
It is hypothesized that the inflammation and swelling of the facial nerve may be caused by combined vascular, infectious and immunological reaction. Numerous infectious agents have been considered including: herpes simplex virus (HSV), influenza virus, varizella zoster virus (VZV), cytomegalovirus, Ebstein-Barr virus, tuberculosis, mumps virus, lyme disease and hepatitis B virus. Of these, herpes simplex virus (HSV) is the most commonly accepted due to consistent serological evidence and is implicated as the etiologic agent in greater than 70% of cases (Billue 1997; WUSM 2005).
It is thought that the HSV virus enters the body through a mucous membrane or skin abrasion and is transported to nerve cell bodies in nerve ganglia where it lays dormant. Various stress conditions can cause the virus to reactivate and cause the condition to manifest. These stresses include menstruation, dental extraction, coldness, or exposure to other infectious agents, particularly upper respiratory tract infection (Roob 1999).
HSV has been observed in saliva (Furuta, Fukuda et al. 1998) as well as muscle biopsy and tears (Kaygusuz, Godekmerdan et al. 2004) of Bell's palsy patients at significantly higher rates than control groups. One study found that approximately 50% of Bell's palsy patients show signs of the virus compared to approximately 19% of the normal population (Furuta, Fukuda et al. 1998). However, an opposing trial found HSV as well as VZV to be non-significantly represented in affected groups (Linder, Bossart et al. 2005). The life span of the virus and the timing of testing for HSV may explain these conflicting conclusions. Furuta (1998) discovered in his trial that HSV became undetectable after two weeks onset of Bell's palsy. The evidence suggesting HSV as the major cause of this condition is demonstrated further by the success of specific antiviral agents which have shown continued success against HSV infections (Adour, Ruboyianes et al. 1996; Allen and Dunn 2004; Allen and Dunn 2005). Furthermore, injections into rat specimens with HSV have recreated facial paralysis in approx 50% of specimens (Gok, Alpay et al. 2005).
Additional infectious agents have been indicated as causative agents for Bells' palsy. Research has found significant causal relationships to Epstein-Barr virus (Ramos, de Miguel et al. 2003; Kaygusuz, Godekmerdan et al. 2004), hepatitis B (Unlu, Aslan et al. 2003), varicella-zoster virus, cytomegalovirus, mumps virus (Kaygusuz, Godekmerdan et al. 2004) as well as influenza virus, tuberculosis, and lyme disease (Salinas, Alvarez et al. 2004). It is most apparent by these results that a viral infection is indicated as the initiating factor in activating cellular immunity. However, which virus is still not known beyond doubt.
Clinical Features and DiagnosisOnset:
- Paralysis: Progresses to maximal deficit over 3 to 72 hours
- Pain (50%): Near mastoid process
- Excess tears (33%)
- Facial weakness
- All branches of nerve: Upper & Lower
- Unilateral: Bilateral in < 1%
- Degree: Partial (30%); Complete (70%)
- Results in mouth droop, eye can't fully close and face feels heavy
- Sensory loss
- Mild or None
- May be present on face or tongue: On side of paralysis
- Stapedius dysfunction (33%): High level of sensitivity to sound
- Taste: Foods may taste slightly different though usually no significant changes
- Lacrimation: Mildly affected in some patients
Typical diagnosis includes matching of events that correspond to the above clinical features and a clinical assessment. The patient is asked to raise their eyebrows, close their eyes and smile. If the person has Bell's palsy, their eyebrows will raise asymmetrically, they won't be able to close the affected eye and one side of the mouth will droop (Braunwald, Fauci et al. 2001; Ahmed 2005).
Conventional Medicine – Evidence and Current TherapyCorticosteroids such as prednisone to reduce inflammation and antivirals such as Aciclovir are the most commonly used treatments. Extensive research has been conducted to find which is the most efficacious with Cochrane reviews completed for both (Salinas, Alvarez et al. 2004; Allen and Dunn 2005). Salinas et al. concluded that corticosteroids do not show significant benefit, however only 4 trials with a total of 179 patients were reviewed (Salinas, Alvarez et al. 2004). Allen and Dunn (2004) reviewed aciclovir alone and in combination with corticosteroids and concluded the results mostly inconclusive. Both reviews confirmed that available studies were insufficiently powered to adequately detect a treatment effect.
In the time since data collection for the Cochrane reviews, animal trials have shown no statistical difference in of the rate or degree of recovery with steroid alone, acyclovir alone or steroid + acyclovir with both found to effectively reduce swelling (Gok, Alpay et al. 2005). A review by the American academy of neurology concluded that steroids are probably effective and acyclovir (combined with prednisone) is possibly effective in improving facial functional outcomes (Grogan and Gronseth 2004). This review included studies which were not assessed by the Allen and Dunn (2004) review and indicated acyclovir and prednisone in combination to be superior to prednisone alone (Billue 1997; Roob 1999; Peitersen 2002; Axelsson, Lindberg et al. 2003; Hato, Matsumoto et al. 2003). Hato et al. (2003) found that combined therapy within 3 days of the onset of palsy was 100 percent effective and early treatment resulted in early remission. In contrast, the recovery rate in patients who started the combined therapy more than 4 days after onset was 86.2 percent (Hato, Matsumoto et al. 2003). Therefore an early combined treatment of prednisone and acyclovir is now considered best practice and current practitioner treatment guidelines reflect this change (Holten 2004). An outline of current treatment is included as appendix B.
According to all 3 systematic reviews surgical decompression of the facial nerve is not considered to be effective for improving facial function (Grogan and Gronseth 2004; Salinas, Alvarez et al. 2004). Botulinum toxin injection is a new treatment approach which as yet has not been tested by a rigorous controlled trial (Vrabec, Toh et al. 2004). Painkillers are used to relieve initial symptoms whilst massage and facial exercise are presumed to encourage neuromuscular retraining leading to quicker recovery when the nerve regenerates.
Traditional Chinese MedicineBell's Palsy is known as Zhong Feng and translates as Wind Attack. It is categorised as External Wind Stroke attack with the main pattern differentiation being Wind invasion due to emptiness of the Channels (Maclean and Lyttleton 1998). Wind is thought to take advantage of the vacuity to enter the body and attack the sinews and vessels in the area of the face. This results in Qi and Blood stagnation causing the inability of flesh to relax or contract (Wolfe 2003). The principle of treatment is to expel Wind and promote the movement of Qi and Blood by scattering Stasis.
Vacuity mostly refers to an insufficiency of Essential Qi. According to the Nei Jing: Despoilation of the Essential Qi results in vacuity. Modern sources state that any disease in which there is an insufficiency of the necessary normal physiologic movement, or in which the functions of the bodies normal regulatory and compensatory actions are reduced, can be described as a vacuity pattern (Teng, Ergil et al. 1999). In TCM terms Qi is the normal regulative and compensative function of the human body (Teng, Ergil et al. 1999). Vacuity patterns emerge slowly over time and can be reflective of a lifestyle of consuming incorrect foods, overwork, stress and indulgence which consumes Qi without replenishment (Teng, Ergil et al. 1999).
Normally Wind-Cold attack would invade through the head and nose and attack the Lung's Defensive Qi leading to the familiar symptoms of cold and flu (Maciocia 2004). It is a sudden pattern which correlates to modern theories of pathogenic viral attack. In the case of Bells' palsy the invading Wind-Cold primarily stays in the facial Yang-Ming channels. The Yang Ming is significant because these are the channels that are most abundant in Qi and Blood. In Bell's palsy it appears that a vacuity pattern debilitates Qi and Blood thus exposing the channels to injury. The first vulnerable portion of the channel is then impaired.
Evidence for TCMAn author search for TCM treatment (acupuncture and herbal medicine) of Bell's palsy within Google Scholar, Google Print as well as online databases MEDLINE, Cochrane register, Science Direct and PubMED returned numerous citations of which 6 full text papers were retrieved (Zhang, Wei et al. 1991; Xing, Yang et al. 1994; Zang 1999; Stone 2002; Wolfe 2003; He, Zhou et al. 2004). Very limited access to Chinese language papers limited further search results. 5 of the papers concluded excellent results for acupuncture therapy and were useful for treatment protocols (outline in appendix C). He et al. (2004) conducted a Cochrane systematic review which included 3 randomised controlled trials (Liu 1996; Shao 1999; Yu 1999). Two of which used acupuncture (Liu 1996; Yu 1999) while the third used acupuncture combined with drugs (Shao 1999). The studies included a total of 238 patients and showed that the therapeutic effect of acupuncture alone was superior to that of medication or that acupuncture combined with medication was better than medication alone (He, Zhou et al. 2004). However, due to poor reporting methods the quality of trials was inadequate to allow any conclusion about the efficacy of acupuncture and more research with high quality trials was recommended (He, Zhou et al. 2004). The 3 included trial treatment protocols are included in appendix C.
Within the Cochrane review it was mentioned that over 50 Chinese language articles had been reviewed by a previous author between 1984 and 1994. The therapeutic effect of acupuncture was found to be good with the literature reporting the lowest cure rate of 37% and a highest of 100% per cent, averaging 81 per cent (He, Zhang et al. 1995).
Case presentation30 Year male presented in September 2005 with right side Bell's palsy. He had woken 6 weeks previously with the condition. The week prior to waking with facial hemiplegia he had experienced cold and flu like symptoms for 1 week and was feeling very tired. During this time he continued to work a physically demanding occupation (plumber) 6 days per week. The day before the onset of Bell's palsy he experienced a metallic taste in his mouth. Without delay (<18 hrs from onset) the patient consulted with a neurologist who confirmed the diagnosis as mild Bell's palsy and upon request was administered prednisone for 10 days. When the patient inquired about the use of antiviral medication he was told it would be of no use to his condition as he did not exhibit herpetic lesions approximating the ear canal. Unabated by the prednisone, the Bell's palsy continued to progress to a more complete facial hemiplegia over the next two days. At presentation he continued to demonstrate almost complete facial paralysis affecting muscles of the eye, mouth, nose and forehead.

Topical herbs applied as paste: Chuan Xiong, Rou Gui, Gan Jiang, Ai Ye, Mu Dan Pi
Hand held moxa stick used above face as well as electronic stimulation and strong cupping of Du 14.
Points needled varied slightly each week.
The patient was advised to drink more water, eat less sugars, exercise when energy increases and avoid beer. If alcohol was consumed he should replace with small amount of spirits such as vodka.
The patient's treatment is still ongoing with twice weekly visits (week 5 at time of writing). Within one week the patient noticed more energy. By the fourth visit some nostril flaring with breathing was noted. Gradual improvement of eye closure was achieved and by the 6th visit could almost close except for the most medial aspect. After 4 weeks the patient began exercising again and energy levels have continued to stay high. Pain proximal to mastoid process largely resolved and moderate improvement noted on facial symmetry by the 8th visit. The patient feels his face is improving for the therapy.
Possible adverse herbal reaction noted at week 3 causing colic-like symptoms after eating. Possibly related to drinking alcohol (beer), and eating rich foods the previous night and exacerbated by the heavier Yin/Blood herbs which impeded the Spleen's function. Gastrointestinal symptoms continued for approximately 1 week and herbs were discontinued during that time. Upon waking the patient noticed stiffness in knees after needling Gall Bladder 34 and then later for needling Stomach 36- both points were discontinued.
DiscussionThe patient is showing gradual improvement. Choosing Yangming combined with Taiyang and Shaoyang points appears to be beneficial. The combination of incorrect foods and herbal exacerbation has delayed the momentum of treatment to this point. However, as the patient will be continuing exercise and increases Qi and Blood supply to his face his progress will hasten. The patient is now aware that he was exposed to this condition from overwork, stress and poor lifestyle. He has been made aware that he will need to continue to improve these aspects to strengthen the body's resistance to future pathogenic factors.
In the face of research presented in this case report it is difficult to believe that the primary physician refused to administer an anti-viral medication. Furthermore, only at the patient's request was prednisone prescribed. Despite reviews concluding that neither prednisone nor Acyclovir show significant benefit when used alone, significant evidence now shows that together they have greater effect. Understanding that Bell's palsy may take up to 72 hours to fully present, studies suggest that early combined treatment is necessary to reduce the risk of permanent damage. It is a source of frustration to the patient and the practitioner that the condition was allowed to continue unabated without appropriate pharmaceutical treatment.

If you need an entry table for your foyer -- or for that spot near the front door in your living room -- buying a pricey new piece from your local furniture store isn't your only option. Flea markets, yard sales, and other secondhand shops are great sources for furniture. But, sometimes you won't find the right piece right away. In that case, consider making your own do-it-yourself entry table from flea market finds instead.
Here are some ideas to get you started:
Though corbels are typically used on the exterior of a building, you can recycle a pair of the bracket-like pieces as a table base. You'll need to mount them to the wall to make your table sturdy, but they'll end up resembling table legs. Once you've mounted them, top them with a scrap slab of marble, a plank of wood, or have a glass top cut to fit.
If you don't find a pair of matching corbels at your usual flea market haunts, try a shop specializing in architectural salvage.
A pair of old columns are another option as a base for your do-it-yourself entry table, though you may need to cut them to the proper height. As with the corbels, you can top them with a long, narrow piece of marble, glass, or wood to create the table's top.
Unless you're a master of faux-finish painting, make sure you use architectural salvage columns instead of hobby store reproductions made of plaster or resin.
The fakes tend to look cheap and tacky.
The iron base from an antique, treadle sewing machine makes a charming entry table base. The bases range from plain to ornate, and making a table is a fantastic way to recycle them for modern use. Depending on the table top you choose and how you accessorize it, the look can be country and rustic or modern and industrial.
Paint the base for a soft, shabby look, or leave it as is for a sleeker look.
You can top your sewing machine base with a wood or glass top -- or even use an old tray or shallow crate.
Iron Fence or Balcony Sections
Cast iron balcony railings or fence sections make wonderful entry table bases. The old iron works with a wide range of decorating styles, including both casual and dressy interiors. If you don't find a balcony piece that's already three sided, you have old fence sections or gates cut and welded into the proper shape.
As with the other entry table base options, you can top the fence piece or balcony rail with the material of your choice. Wood, glass, marble, and granite all work well. Using multiple planks on the top creates a rustic, farmhouse table look.
For a fun, floating table look, cut the end from a dining table (the part without a table leaf divide) or table desk -- or even cut a traditional console table in half. Leave two legs intact and use them for the front of your table. Mount the cut side of the table to the wall with L-brackets, and then paint the brackets so they blend into the wall.
The final look depends on the table style you choose.
Choose a piece with turned, farmhouse legs for a country or cottage look. Choose a mid-century table with tapered metal or paperclip legs for a fun, retro effect. For a formal or glamorous look, choose a formal table with cabriole legs, or a Jacobean table with oversize, bulbous legs.
Hang a Shelf and Skirt It
If you don't find any flea market pieces to alter or turn into table bases, look for a pair of old drapery panels instead. You can make a skirted entry table. Draperies with pleated headers work especially well.
Depending on the size and style of your entry, cut plywood or MDF into a rectangular or half-round shape to use as the shelf turned tabletop. Paint the tabletop, and then mount it to your entry wall with shelf or L-brackets. Staple hook-and-loop tape around the three exposed sides of the tabletop, and stitch the other half of the tape to the drapery header.
Attach the drapery panels to the hook and loop tape and your tabletop to skirt it. Hem the draperies if needed, or just tuck them under for a lush, puddling look.

Quenching media based on polyalkylene glycol have been used for heat treatment of aluminum alloys instead of hot water for 50 years. However, their use ;till accompanied by some difficulties. In the aircraft industry of the U.S. aqueous solutions of polymers based on polyalkylene glycol are called quenching liquids of types I and II. The aim of the present work is to consider the possibility of using these media for quenching aluminum alloys.

Mr Sutherland organised the "First Prohibition Dinner" in December; diners were to have paid pounds 12 for slices of beef on the bone and trimmings. But the arrival of health inspectors forced a change of plan: it was decided to offer the meal free in a bid to sidestep any legal problems and Mr Sutherland, who is also a farmer, footed the pounds 2,000 bill.Reuse content

Preds Host Game 3; Smashville Ready To Go
The series shifts to Nashville on Sunday when the Anaheim Ducks and Nashville Predators face off in a critical Game 3 contest at Bridgestone Arena. Anaheim took Game 2 on Friday night by a 5-3 score to even the series at one game apiece.
Nashville has a huge opportunity in games 3 and 4. Bobby Ryan will have to sit both games out due to suspension after he stomped on Jonathon Blum's foot in Game 2. This presents a great chance for the Preds to take complete control of this series. The next two games are at home, and one of the top line guys for the Ducks is out. What more could you ask for?
Smashville will be rocking for this game. Sunday afternoon's game is expected to be sold out, and will be as loud as ever. The Preds have to get back to what made them successful in Game 1, and in the 3rd period of Game 2. That means putting the puck on net with quality chances, skating hard on the offensive and defensive side of the puck, and staying out of the penalty box.
Due to Ryan's suspension, the "RPG" line is obviously going to be broken up. However, the Ducks are still a dangerous team. In Game 2, Nashville was simply outskated in the first two periods. I wouldn't expect that to happen again on Sunday. The Preds are at home for Game 3 of the playoffs. You can bet they're going to come out fast and hard. The puck drops at 5:00 p.m.

(Photo by Erik Karlsson) Dear Abby On anniversary, couple celebrates generous friends DEAR ABBY: Here's a suggestion for "Anonymous, Please," the man who will be celebrating his 50th wedding anniversary soon and wanted to request that the guests bring no gifts. Last year we were confronted with the same situation for our 25th. Knowing that guests would bring gifts anyway, we suggested they bring canned goods for the needy. Our invitations read: "Your love and friendship is the only gift we need. However, if you wish to bring something, please make it an item of food that will be donated to the needy." Abby, we were overwhelmed by the generosity of our friends! We hauled IO boxes of canned goods and almost $200 in cash down to the local "soup kitchen" that feeds the homeless and needy. What a great party we had — filled with family and friends who made it all the more beautiful by sharing with those less fortunate. You may use my name. ELEANOR BURLEY. STERLING HEIGHTS, MICH. DEAR ELEANOR: That suggestion appeared in my column two years ago, but it's worth repeating periodically. Thank you, Eleanor. And may you celebrate many more happy anniversaries. DEAR ABBY: I'm writing to offer some advice to younger readers regarding dating: I am 27, and ever since I was in high school. I adopted my own personal code for dating. It is: Any guy who psks me out I will go with at least once — unless I have reason to believe he could be dangerous. Since then, I have helped some very shy guys develop their selfconfidence, and I've established some good friendships and a few meaningful relationships. Not every date has been great — a few have been real duds — but if a guy asks me out, at least I give him a chance. (Accepting a date doesn't mean you have to marry anyone.) Also, after the first date, I generally insist on paying my share of the tab. I'm not rich — I'm a middleclass working woman — but I know how expensive dating is for most guys. I haven't met Mr. Right yet, but in the meantime, I'm enjoying myself. CYNTHIA IN GEORGIA DEAR CYNTHIA: It's easy to see why you're not sitting at home, waiting for your telephone to ring. You're a giver, not a taker. You appear to be a young woman who likes herself and is comfortable to be around. There are two kinds of people in the world — those who walk into a room and say, "There you are" — and those who say, "Here I am!" You belong in the "there you are" category. You could give lessons. "How to Be Popular" is for everyone who feels left out and wants an improved social life. It's an excellent guide to becoming a better conversationalist and a more attractive person.

Story Behind this Recipe
In summer 2009 in NY, there was not even a day that the temperature went over 30℃ until the middle of August. Finally, it became summery at the end of August, so I made this summery dish. The cape gooseberries I bought at the farmer's market were delicious, so I made a salad with them.

The House Agriculture Committee on Wednesday launched into a marathon markup of the five-year farm bill, with members facing 100 amendments to the bill, according to Chairman Frank Lucas (R-Okla.).
Lucas announced that some of the amendments filed were not germane, as they involve matters outside the jurisdiction of the committee. He said no votes would be held on these measures.
The first amendment taken up was one to alter the dairy supply management program, offered by Reps. David Scott (D-Ga.) and Bob GoodlatteBob GoodlatteTop Dem calls for investigation into Sessions House votes to expand death penalty for police killings House Judiciary Dems call for hearings on Comey ouster MORE (R-Va.). Scott argued that the program drives up the price of milk, affecting the poor greatly.
They were opposed by Rep. Peter WelchPeter WelchFive roadblocks for Trump's T infrastructure plan Hopes of bipartisanship fade amid Comey chaos Trump to continue paying ObamaCare subsidies MORE (D-Vt.) and members from other dairy-heavy districts who argued small dairy farms are struggling with the highest price volatility of any commodity.
Ranking member Collin Peterson (D-Minn.) said the amendment would repeat mistakes in the market-oriented 1996 farm bill, which forced Congress to come back two years later to rescue many farmers with an expensive bailout.
"We only have 99 amendments to go," Lucas said as debate on Amendment One dragged on.
The dairy amendment was defeated 29 to 17.

Hatters Hit For Six, As Dragons' Firepower Wrecks 'Em
County's Trophy road for this season came to an abrupt and emphatic end on a wintry night in North East Wales, which saw the Hatters replay at the Racecourse Ground while not being exactly 'at the races'.
The ever-lengthening injury list with which Alan Lord had to contend required him to replace both Tunji Moses and Richie Baker, each of whom had limped off during the first tie between the two sides on Saturday. Jordan Fagbola, as part of a five-player defence, and Kristian Dennis were recalled in their places. The County bench, meanwhile, included Charlie Russell, from the Development Squad, who, in the course of the second half, was to be brought on for his senior debut.
As the players acclimatized to the sub-zero temperature and driving sleet, the game began quietly, with no chances to speak of in the first fifteen minutes. A couple of opportunities then presented themselves to Wrexham, although Louis Moult's shot from the edge of the area was drilled wide, and a longer-distance effort by Robbie Evans flew wider – not to mention higher – still.
At the other end, the Hatters looked to have two possible shouts for a penalty in quick succession, following an appeal for handball and, immediately afterwards, the grounding of Chris Sharp. In both instances, however, play was waved on.
Less than five minutes later, the home side went ahead. Their second corner of the evening was played to Wes York, who, from twenty yards out, curled a shot into the top right of the net.
Having scored twice within three minutes at Edgeley Park over the weekend, Wrexham repeated the feat on home turf when York crossed from the right to find Louis Moult. The forward, whose overhead equalizer on Saturday had since become something of an internet sensation, now slid in to poke the ball home and double his side's lead.
The Red Dragons appeared to be playing well within their comfort zone. Only some good work by Danny Hurst, who first parried a shot from Andy Bishop at point-blank range and, a little later, intervened to beat the same opponent to the ball following a Neil Ashton cross, prevented their goal-count from increasing further.
With the Hatters looking rather out of sorts, and out of the contest, as half-time neared, they unexpectedly halved the deficit when Chris Churchman converted his third goal of the season. 'Churchy', following Saturday's match, had been identified by Wrexham as one of the County players to watch… which is precisely what the home defence seemed to do, as the young midfielder was given time on the edge of the box to tee up a shot that found its way through a sea of players to deceive Dan Bachmann.
County once again had cause to thank Hurst just before the break, when, for a third time, he denied Bishop, whose shot was the culmination of an impressive move involving Moult and former Hatter, Connor Jennings.
HALF-TIME: Wrexham 2 (York, 20; Moult, 23), County 1 (Churchman, 43).
As the teams took the field for the second half, Wrexham did so with one immediate change necessitated by a thigh injury to Bachmann. This substitution assumed rather more interest when it was noted that the home team had not named a goalkeeper on its bench! Bachmann's replacement was, in fact, Joe Clarke, a popular midfield general, who had not been known previously to don the gloves.
With this in mind, and given that the sleet had abated, there were grounds to believe that the Hatters might get well and truly back into contention. In the event, however, they failed to test Clarke – who, other than getting an early touch of the ball to catch a Mark Lees effort, was not called upon to use his hands again – and found themselves having to endure an entirely different kind of storm, as it began to rain goals at the away end.
Within four minutes of the re-start, Bishop finally won his contest with Hurst – positioning himself at the far post to head home a York cross from the right. York himself then made it four for his team, and two for himself – running clear on the same flank, before chipping the County 'keeper from an angle. A little later, the same player shot narrowly wide whilst in search of a hat trick.
The one-way traffic continued, and, with fewer than twenty minutes left, Moult joined York to bag himself a brace – getting behind the County defence to pick up a delightful chip from Bishop, and rifling home for Wrexham's fifth.
Jennings came close on two occasions to scoring again against his old club – only to be thwarted by the legs of Hurst, and then to fall short of stretching quite enough in a sliding attempt to connect with a cross from York that flew across the County goalmouth.
Nevertheless, there remained time for a sixth Wrexham goal. And it duly arrived with three minutes to go when substitute, Steve Tomassen, won a chase in the box for the ball, which he proceeded to dink over Hurst.
County's interest in the Trophy had, of course, effectively ended rather earlier in the second half, but the full-time whistle officially confirmed that neither Gateshead nor Grimsby would be visiting Edgeley Park for the Third Round a week on Saturday. The Hatters will, however, be anxious to 'G' themselves up following their knockout disappointment – for a trip to Gainsborough beckons this weekend, together with an opportunity to revive Conference North fortunes.
We would like to give a special mention to the 141 hardy souls who braved the weather to support us last night. Your support is appreciated and doesn't go unnoticed.
FULL-TIME: Wrexham 6 (York, 20 and 55; Moult, 23 and 72; Bishop, 49; Tomassen, 87), County 1 (Churchman, 43).
Team: Hurst, Todd (Russell, 57), Duxbury, O'Halloran, Belezika, Fagbola, Lees, Churchman, Sharp (Spencer, 65), Dennis, Ryan.

"The Economics Department at CEU runs an excellent and well-funded PhD program. The level of courses is on par with leading European universities, teaching load is limited, and there are many opportunities for research assistantships. The weekly seminar series features invited speakers from the best departments in the world. The faculty is accessible, supportive, and its strong focus on research provides an inspiring environment for PhD students. Peers are great, and so is Budapest as a city. I can't think of another place in Europe where I'd rather spent my graduate years."
"I believe I made the right choice when choosing the CEU doctoral program and the learning experience was very enriching. The faculty and my class were excellent and very cooperative and supportive in all aspects. The University also provided a lot of support throughout my studies, both regarding finances and the overall educational environment, including the library and the class selection.
"Studying at CEU was an amazing experience. We had the chance to learn from the best economics professors while we were in an exceptionally international environment where long term friendships were made. It was a hard and challenging 2-year program but it was definitely worth it as I am sure that I would not be in my current position without having the opportunity to study at CEU. Thank you!
"CEU has been a great experience for me both professionally and personally. I have received quality education that is highly valued around the world but I have also gained generic skills that allowed me to place myself easily in the industry. During my time at CEU I have met people from many different countries who became my good friends and with whom I stayed in touch ever after. CEU is not just a university to me, CEU is a place where I grew and matured into a self-confident adult well prepared for life."
"I had a pleasure of being one of the first students to attend the CEU which was located in Prague at that time. Having graduated from University of Łódź with MA in Economics, I went to Prague to deepen my economic knowledge.

Talking About Christian Humor Blogging, Part 3
Today the blog welcomes Jeff Miller of The Curt Jester ("Punditry, Prayer, Parody, Polemics, and Puns from a Papist Perspective"). If you have hidden under a blogospheric rock, I can tell you that Jeff is a convert, long time Catholic mega-blogger, and absolute master of puns (See the picture at right? Jesus the Mathsiah Brings Division here) who will never be accused of being wishy-washy on anything. That scripture where God says "the lukewarm I will spit out of my mouth"? No problem, Jeff. Disclaimer: I probably owe any readership I have to Jeff for generously linking to me as I was starting up shop over a year ago. So, publicly, thank you! Now, without further ado, Jeff, you're on...(and my few comments are in red...)
What is the role of humor on your blog?
Strangely when I started my first blog over five years ago it was going to be a punditry blog and humor and parody just developed. Now I use it quite often since it is a good tool to make a point while having fun.
Why is "Christian Humor" not an oxymoron?
Because God gave us humor and the oxymoron would be Christianity without humor. Several martyrs are known for good laugh lines in the process of their martyrdom. [Jeff, I know the St Lawrence line, "Turn me over, I'm done on this side" as he was roast on a spit. Do you know others?]
Are you funny offline?
I pretty much take every opportunity to pun and to joke. I have broken up multiple serious meetings with a well placed question in a comic mode.
Are there "BIG POINTS" in your humor posts, or are you just goofing around?
I think my funnier stuff all have big points. Parody is best that way when it makes serious points in a humorous way that can actually make comprehension of the subject easier.
What makes something humorous, in your opinion?
It really depends on the type of humor. Parody is funny when it is really close to the truth. Most things become funny when there is some dichotomy where sometimes it can be a likeness in the subject matter or something quite at odds with what would be normal.
What kind of humor crosses the line in your blog, if any?
This is a really important question and something that as a Catholic humorist I always keep in mind. Not every idea I start out with do I finish and sometimes a couple ideas that I had finished I decided not to post. I try to keep my humor very broad and to be mostly focused on
ideas and not the individuals. I try to ridicule silly ideas without attacks on a person and try to keep the emphasis on the idea. I doubt if this is something I always achieve so this is something up to others to decide. I hardly have large negative replies to any of my posts (excepting trolls), but when I do I certainly take a look at what I did and in a couple of cases yanked the post.
What humorous post did you create and really like that just flopped?
Sometimes you just never know that will catch on. You might craft something as almost a throwaway post and have a large reaction. Other times something you are especially proud of receives little or no attention. Though in the blogging world sometimes it is hard to gage
reaction since you depend on comments to do this and few people comment. I have thought that some ideas had flopped only to find later that it had been linked to by other blogs.
One that flopped was "Self defense for bureaucrats" which I was quite
proud of.
Are there any humorists (written or on screen) you really like?
Groucho Marx, G.K. Chesterton, P.J. O'Rourke, Terry Pratchett [I have to say, I have never met Jeff in real life but this list captures his blog perfectly to me!]
Humor: evangelization, frivolity, or neither?
This is where the Catholic both/and comes into play. Humor is both for evangelization and frivolity.
How do you keep it up online when you don't feel funny?
Well, my blog is largely reactive to news so I can be serious when I feel serious and funny when I do feel funny. Though comic block is not something I often get.
Name one thing Jesus probably laughed about.
My conversion. Not only were there those in heaven rejoicing, I bet some were laughing their halos off. Though the old joke is if you want to make Jesus laugh, tell him your plans.
It was joyful laughing, I'm sure.
Thanks, Jeff. Coming Tuesday: It Came From Allen's Brain!

Here is another example of saintly gallows humor.
St. Thomas More when he approached the headsmen and demanded that the guillotine cut off his head but not clip his beard, his beard was innocent since it had grown during the time he was imprisoned.

Maybe the point of the line was that More wanted to die of old age—the guillotine wasn't invented for another couple of centuries :-).
- Jeff Miller said...
It was a headsman's axe.
- Meredith said...
I seem to remember St. Ralph Sherwin laughing his head off when chains were put on his wrists... obviously, being a Catholic priest, he had to be handcuffed at all times - or he might use his magickal powers to raise a zombie army and attack Queen Elizabeth!!!! Or something! St. Margaret Clitheroe was accused of having a "merry devil" because she was so indecently cheerful about her impending death sentence. So that makes three mordant English martyrs. Think that's a coincidence? ^_^

Chelsea vs Genk
Stadium: Stamford Bridge
Wednesday 19th October 2011
Match Predictions: 4-0 Chelsea
Torres x2, Sturridge, Mata
This should be our easiest group game.
I think Torres will score 2 in this one, or at least one goal, because it seems like he is improving every game.
Would love to see Mata score as he hasn't scored in ages yet, but made some good assists in the previous games.
I think Chelsea will dominate precession like they did with Everton.
So what are your thoughts and predictions?
