Schools Should Be Safe
Recently a kindergartner threw a tantrum at a small-town Georgia school and was taken away in handcuffs. The kindergartner, Salecia Johnson, was accused of tearing items off the walls and throwing books and toys in an outburst at Creekside Elementary in Milledgeville. She also threw a small shelf and hit the principal in the leg with it. She jumped on a paper shredder and tried to break a glass frame.
When a police officer tried to calm Salecia Johnson in the principal's office, she resisted and was handcuffed. She was charged with simple assault and damage to property. The police officer removed Salecia from the school in a police car. While everyone is debating whether the police overreacted to the situation, I think parents need more information before they decide how they would react to this situation.
While as a parent your instincts are to picture your own child in handcuffs, I'd like you to take a different perspective for a moment. Imagine that your child is sitting in the classroom with Salecia. Salecia gets upset and starts tearing items off the wall and throwing books and toys in the classroom. One of the books she throws just misses your child's head.
The principal and an aide have to carry Salecia Johnson out of the classroom while she is kicking and screaming. Your kindergartner has witnessed the whole outburst. While this is one episode, you should realize that episodes like this occur frequently in elementary schools. Your child may be sitting in a classroom where they repeatedly witness violence and hear profanity. With the current policy of inclusion, children with significant behavioral issues and emotional disturbances are placed in mainstream classrooms with your child. Some of these children repeatedly disrupt classrooms with their out-of-control behavior.
As a parent, do you know if your child's education is being disrupted by the behavior of other children? It seems reasonable for parents to expect that their children will be safe in their classrooms.
Rather than picturing yourself as the parent of a kindergartner in handcuffs, picture yourself as the parent of the kindergartner who nearly got hit by a book and lost an hour of instructional time because of another child's tantrum.

I think you have a bit of an overreaction. The thing is, the author wants to make a statement about this universe they have created. It is an oppressive regime that takes away the innocence of a child, or at worst a life, that keep the masses in fear. The more food they borrow, the more likely they will be picked. It is about coming from the poor and showing the upper class who's boss. (Especially in the end scene with Peeta and Katniss. "They don't have to have a winner.") As a society outside of the book, we don't condone these things by showing them on our screens and reading about them. You almost have to desensitize yourself in order to learn the message the series is trying to teach. You can't compare your morals regarding children death matches to this series because we didn't grow up where the Hunger Games looms annually. Instead, we have to look at it objectively and hopefully: better ourselves. Look at your nieces. There are two or more ways to interpret every story: Face value, where it is children in a death match for entertainment of the crowd. Or, with an analytical mind: a story of rags showing the upper class whose boss, and creating a revolution. A satire on how media in our world makes contestants in a dog-eat-dog world or for people to put themselves in danger for cheap media entertainment. (And many more ideas)
I found this video difficult to watch malniy because the people were so confused and affluent. Giving more money to someone will not guarantee that they will live out what God has planned for them. I felt sorry for them and would have liked to suggest to them that they give me some of their money and let me show them what to do with it. Seriously, I did not hear any of them speak about doing something for others or their moral beliefs.Interestingly, one of the interviewees mentioned how they went to a Christian school and was beaten up. I guess in that case his introduction to Christ was not a positive one. Some of the things that make the rich nervous also make poor nervous. The rich children worried about how to hold on to their money and the poor worry about how to get it. The rich are worried about someone knocking on their door saying you did not do something right, so now I am disowning you. The poor worry about someone knocking on their door saying your time is up and now you have to get out or bill collectors hounding them. There will always be worries that can overcome us when we live in a hollow life such as what was viewed.True freedom is knowing that God is in control and no matter what we see, these things are all temporal and we have a job to do. Seek the kingdom! All the other things will be added if we do the first step.These are just my thoughts..

It examines if the church is rushing the potential sainthood of Pope John Paul II and the logic behind the sainthood push just a few years after his death. His May beatifcation certainly has created a stir. Many are celebrating what they think was a foregone conclusion when he died- he was a saint. While he defined what a pope meant to me, I'd prefer a patient analysis of my saints. If he spent a lifetime in service of God, then his entire lifetime should be examined thoroughly.
Both Pope John Paul II and Mother Teresa have the benefit of being Catholic leaders in the television age. Both were tremendous leaders and examples to millions of how to live a Catholic life. Someone like Mother Mary Lange, still waits for sainthood because there is not as much available as there is for the more well-known Pope John Paul II and Mother Teresa.
Where do you stand on this? Are you a person who says, "Why wait?"

Although not related to the Archdiocese of Baltimore, this video was too impressive to not share with you. St. John Vianney Catholic School seventh graders in Kailua, Hawai won the grand prize of the 2010 Multi-Media Youth Arts Contest sponsored by the Catholic Campaign for Human Development (CCHD). CCHD is a program that aims to support programs that get at the root source of poverty.
The students researched homelessness in Hawaii and the U.S. to produce this incredibly well-done documentary.

Locally, kids in the Archdiocese of Baltimore, through ideas4us.com also produced topical videos about technology safety issues for a contest earlier this year.

Father John Hurley and the staff of Division of Youth and Young Adult Ministry
Father John Hurley, a Paulist, has been a busy man since starting the Department of Evangelization five months ago. Through it all, though, the executive director of the department has made it his mission to be out with the people, particularly the teens so vital to the Catholic Church. He celebrated the closing BYCC's Mass and shared some parting thoughts with the teens before they returned to their parishes and high schools. "I am ever more convinced that the future of the church is in good hands in the archdiocese," Father Hurley said. "My staff has heard me say this over and over again and I will continue to say it over and over again, the youths are not the future of the church, but the future of the church depends on our youths." He continued, "But, with that brothers and sisters comes a heavy responsibiity that we have shared and rejoiced in this week: the call to discipleship. So, next time you look in the mirror in the morning when you get up, rather than saying "Oh my God" say that "I am a disciple of Jesus Christ," and maybe something profound will happen throughout that day. God has great things in store for us. Amen?" The 500-plus people in the ballroom responded "Amen," resoundingly. Father Hurley extended an invitation to vocational discernment for the young people in attendance, pointing to two archdiocan priests, Father Austin Murphy and Father Michael Triplett as inspiration. "God does have amazing surprises for us," Father Hurley said. He reminded the youths to follow history's biggest hero. "I'm often reminded that Jesus invited 12," he said. "One doubted, one betrayed and one committed suicide. Even because of all of that, you and I are here today. If it can happen to that lot of that pack of 12, and to Dismas, just imagine what can happen with 500 of us here this day. "
"Brother and Sisters," he continued, "let us pray that God's spirit be upon us because the kingdom of God is in our midst."

Father T. Austin Murphy Jr, director of vocations, delivered a homily about a surprising hero of his. It was a fitting end to this busy, but affirming weekend in Ocean City.
November 21, 2010 12:22 By Matt Palmer
The last day of BYCC is here. I can already hear teens moving about the hallways as they prepare to head downstairs for breakfast.
You haven't lived until you've seen 500 teens pray the rosary under the moonlight at the beach. Surrounded by candles, the teens took to the sand last evening (Nov. 20) in a moving display of spirituality.
It was such a serene experience.
The teens have learned quite a bit about the power of quiet in their lives. Father T. Austin Murphy Jr. led the teens in an adoration of the Blessed Sacrament in one of the ballrooms. It never ceases to amaze me how familiar young people are with adoration. As a child, I was an altar server and active in my parish, but adoration was not something that was taught to us.
It's second nature to these kids and a truly centering experience for them.
Not everything was quiet last night. The kids rocked out to Joia Farmer's versions Sweet Child O' Mine, Journey's Don't Stop Believin' and The Bangles' Hazy Shade of Winter.
These kids are spiritual and know their 80s music? Millennials FTW!
This video doesn't have the greatest quality, but you'll see the energy on full display.

In the opening minutes of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part I, it becomes brutally clear this is no longer a children's story.
It has been said that the world has watched Harry Potter and friends grow up before our eyes. I'd disagree. We've seen their childhoods destroyed. The innocence in Potter's eyes that greeted us six films ago is long gone.
Magic is no longer cool. It's deadly.
The opening minutes see Harry and his friends, Ron and Hermione, literally saying goodbye to their childhoods and, in some cases, their families. They're going off to war, uncertain if they'll ever return. More raw emotion pulsates in the first two minutes of Part I than in any of the other excellent Potter films.
The evil Lord Voldemort has ascended from the magic version of purgatory and he's corrupting souls. Not even the magic world's trusted ministries are safe from his reach.
For the first time in the series' film history, the action gets gory. The teens who grew up with the series would never have able to view this nine years ago as children. It's that intense.
The movie focuses on a mystery. Voldemort has left pieces of his soul in keepsakes, called horcruxes, scattered across the world. It's up to Potter and crew to find the horcruxes and, along the way, they must dodge Voldemort's minions. It appears Voldemort would relish killing Potter more than ruling the universe.
It was Potter, as a baby, who survived Voldemort's murderous attempt. Harry's parents weren't so lucky. Now he wants to finish the job by turning "the boy who lived" into "the boy who died."
We've always known that the series would come down to Harry and Voldemort wand to wand. This film is about moving chess pieces across the board. Harry is winning small battles while Voldemort appears to be winning the war. Darkness dominates the film from start to finish.
Daniel Radcliffe is so comfortable with the titular role at this point that it's going to be hard for him to avoid becoming this generation's Mark Hamill. It's not a bad thing, though, to be known as the 2000's version of Luke Skywalker, the ultimate every hero.
Just as Harry was destined to be magic's savior, Radcliffe was born to play Potter.
Emma Watson (Hermione) and Rupert Grint (Ron) are equally terrific, giving the film an emotional core. The series has teased a Hermione and Ron union since Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone nine years ago. Now at world's end, they're realizing they can't live without one another.
After the group locates one of the Voldemort's horocruxes, Ron wears it around his neck and quickly falls into darkness. It exploits all of his fears and insecurities. Grint rises to the occasion, playing the scenes with suitable anguish. It calls to mind the inner turmoil facing Frodo Baggins in The Lord of the Rings series earlier this decade.
The supporting adult cast is strong as always. The story plays out like a hybrid of Star Wars/Lord of the Rings and finally, after seven films, the Potter series can stand toe to toe with them in terms of emotional resonance and action.
The film's tagline states "Nowhere is safe." No one is safe either. The characters we've come to care about are laying their lives on the line. They're saying goodbye as we prepare to say our own 'so long' to the film series.
No end to this movie would be satisfying. Part II of Deathly Hallows is still eight months away from being released in theaters. When it concludes, so will the Harry Potter saga.
Like Star Wars' The Empire Strikes Back, the bad guys appear to have the upper hand as a conclusion is tantalizingly close, but still so far away.
If Part I's exhausting emotional journey is any indication of what's ahead, there won't be a dry eye in the house come July 2011.

Zab Judah Looks Trim And Sharp In Return To 140 |
Written by Michael Woods | |||
Friday, 16 July 2010 19:00 | |||
Hes baaack. We can say that, cant we, after Zab Judah hammered Jose Armando Santa Cruz in the main event at the Prudential Center in Newark, NJ on Friday night? Judah is now campaigning at junior welter, his starting out weight, and came in at a trim and ready 141 pounds. Judah rose to 39-6 when he dropped Santa Cruz in the third, and then went in for the killshot. He trapped the loser on the ropes, and ref Benji Esteves interceded, at 2:33 of the round.

Cleaver girl: Mrs Chu gets her revenge in Sleeping Dogs [Video]
24 Jul 2012  by

In this new video, producer Dan Sochan narrates us through extended highlights of a mission to avenge restaurant owner 'Mrs Chu'. You'll get to see examples of driving, somewhat brutal fighting and a kind of location triangulation mini-game, all in the open world streets of Hong Kong.
Sleeping Dogs is coming to PC, Xbox 360 and PS3 on 17 August.

ORDER TODAY!What to see and do, where to eat and sleep along the historic trail from the Idaho border |
Fort Clatsop National Memorial"Finally, on Dec. 5, Lewis returned, and told Clark hed found the spot where they should spend the winter. Early in the morning on Dec. 7, they packed up and headed for a high, defensible spot surrounded by dense trees and brush, on the Lewis & Clark River. In less than a month, with rain falling each day, the Corps completed a 50-by-50-foot log fort. From Clarks detailed drawings on the leather cover of his journal, the recreated structure at Fort Clatsop is strikingly accurate: three attached cabins facing four attached cabins, across a 20-foot-wide parade ground, gated on both ends. "The first structure built in the region by American explorers was servicable, but not exactly cozy. The fire pits banked up against the walls smoked terribly, the winter temperature was so warm that even elk hung in the smoke house spoiled. The blankets were covered in fleas, and if that wasnt enough, mosquitoes buzzed in. At least there was a fresh water spring, which you can still visit at Fort Clatsop today."

I-Team: Holiday Shoplifting
(WWLP) - Christmas is a week away and it is the busiest time of the year at the mall.
The 22News I-Team discovers its the season of giving and taking.
From Black Friday until Christmas eve malls are packed with shoppers searching for that perfect present. Some of those shoppers just don't pay for what they find.
The 22News I-Team went to the Holyoke police department. Since Black Friday, Holyoke police have arrested 30 people at the Holyoke Mall for shoplifting. More than one a day.
Springfield had two shoplifting arrests at the Eastfield Mall.
That does not count people who avoid prosecution by paying individual stores or given citations by police at the mall.
The Holyoke Mall did not comment on their own security measures, but said they have additional Holyoke police officers scheduled during the holiday shopping season.
Brian Kennedy is the public safety director at the Eastfield Mall.
"As you can see we have a camera system that's constantly going here at the mall that's monitoring a number of different locations throughout the mall on the interior and exterior", says Kennedy.
If you're going to be shopping at the mall during this busy Christmas week, you need to take some of your own safety precautions before you get in the parking lot.
"Making sure you don't leave in plain view in your vehicle, you have to be concerned with not being a target for other people to take advantage of you", says Kennedy.
Kennedy told the 22News I-Team they work with the Springfield Police department. Police and mall security patrol inside and outside the mall and there's always someone watching you.
"It provides us an advantage if something were to happen because we would have a heads up and we could respond to a situation and take care of it as soon as possible", says Kennedy.
Kennedy told 22News the cameras aren't just for watching out for shoplifting or car break in's, it's also for safety in case someone may slip and fall in the parking lot.

Mark, If you think the wait time for an Astro-Physics telescope is going to diminish noticeably in the next 2-3 years, you are dreaming. The existing waiting list is way, way too long for that. I have already waited four years and seven months for an AP 6" apo, and I fully expect to wait at least three more years, probably five more years. I have also waited four years and seven months for an AP 5", and there is no way at all to gauge how much longer I have to wait for that. AP is mum. The demand for AP scopes far exceeds the supply, and that's going to remain true indefinitely. Don't kid yourself. If you want an AP scope, get on the waiting list. In the meantime, buy another scope to use, 'cause you're gonna be waiting a looooooong time.

So you think that this competition is not important and the results of it don't show how good the university is.
You said that, not me.
I said find the alumni and ask what THEY think because anyone can win a competition but it doesn't have any reflection on the quality of the professors, only the students.
Example: Back in '78 (stone age of computers) while I was already published at the tender age of 18, my professors couldn't break their way out of a wet for-next loop. The grad students in the electronics programs were building kit radios while I was building computer circuits from scratch and the professor had no clue how it worked. Had you asked me about my college I would've told you they were dumb as dirt and try MIT instead.

Cheryl and Luis Stauffer of Crimson Design Group
Designer Cheryl Beachy Stauffer drew from the signature blue and white tile mosaics of Morocco for a recent water feature project. She turned to Turkish rugs for a clubhouse foyer. And for a wine cellar project, she found inspiration in Italy's Old World style with aged beams and stone.
"We love exposing our clients to different cultures and environments from around the world," says Cheryl, who owns Crimson Design Group with her husband, Luis.
It's not surprising. Their parents introduced them to a variety of foreign cultures during childhood. Cheryl was born in Paraguay, raised in Sugarcreek, Ohio, taken on mission trips to Bolivia, Peru and Argentina, and sent to study in Israel. Luis was adopted from Guatemala, and then traveled full-time with his missionary parents to Costa Rica, Belize, Honduras, Ecuador and Nicaragua.
"My parents taught me that life is not just the 10 feet from where I am," Luis says. "There is so much more out there."
As young adults, the two crossed paths at Der Dutchman in Plain City where they were working while going to school—Cheryl in interior design school and Luis at Ohio State University's linguistics program.
Now ages 38 and 40, the two still love to travel—most recently to Belgium—and dream of further expanding their 10-year-old business internationally. From their Downtown location in Pearl Alley, they run a retail shop on the ground floor and design studio on the second. Here, their design team creates interior spaces from downtown lofts to suburban homes to luxury apartment community common areas. They also commit 10 percent of their design consultation fees to Thirst Relief, founded by Jim Hicks of Columbus to provide quality drinking water in Third World countries.
Central Ohioans seem to embrace the Stauffers' fresh approach. Their efforts at the 2012 BIA Parade of Homes won the People's Choice Award for favorite decor. At the Parade's award-winning Mill House project, they teamed up with Miller-Troyer Custom Homes, New Avenue Architects and Hidden Creek Landscaping to create a "farmhouse-chic" design.
For that project, the couple built upon a nostalgic farm theme with accents such as a milk bottle-inspired chandelier, a barn painting by Granville artist Paul Hamilton, Amish-crafted cabinetry and old barn beams. They added modern accents including an industrial-style light fixture over the kitchen island and a rug with an oversized chevron pattern—a French design element.
Inspired by places near and far, these globetrotters often define their design process using a journey as a metaphor. "Along the design journey, we explore our clients' likes and dislikes, expose them to new ideas, redefine their style and in the end take it all in," Cheryl says.

International Design Trendspotting
The Stauffers share these emerging design influences from around the world:
Belgium – Eclectic mix of old and new furnishings; palettes of grays
Europe – Simplified luxury with quality pieces in smaller spaces; deep colors like aubergine and Hermes orange
Uganda – Minimalist living where less is definitely more
India – Highly sensory spaces, bold colors and richly ornamented accessories
Latin America – Tribal patterns and the return of gold finishes
Brazil – Animal furs, leathers and fibers like alpaca
Morocco – Opulent mosaics, spicy colors and graphic patterns like trellises and hexadots

Hats off to fans; they get stuff done. The latest evidence of this is the ways in which shippers (Vocabulary lesson for the unfamiliar: Shipper, n.: short for relationship-er; people who advocate for particular couples in media objects)—and particularly shippers of non-canon (i.e. not officially existing in the text of the media object itself) couples completely took over E! Online's 2012 TV's Top Couple Tournament.
The site's "weeks-long bracket-style tournament" started with 64 couples, many of which were "real" on the show and therefore might be considered to be more legitimate than those existing only in the slash goggles of the beholder(s).
Slash Goggles, n.: A prosthesis enabling one to see desire where it might otherwise be invisible; though the "slash" part indicates specifically same-sex desire, there are surely heterogoggles as well, though less often required. For a great rundown—and the place where I first heard the term—see Julie Levin Russo's Hera Has Six Mommies (A Transmedia Love Story). Because apparently I can't blog without Julie.
Despite the potential for legitimacy deficit, as the voting went on, many of the goggle-authorized pairings advanced through round after round, handily defeating couples for which there was explicit textual evidence. By the final four, there was just one canon pairing, which was same-sex: Brittany and Santana from Glee. And there was just one heterosexual pairing, which was non-canon: Castle and Beckett from Castle.
When the voting came down to the final two, lo and behold, both couples were same-sex and non-canon: Faberry (Quinn and Rachel, played by Dianna Agron and Lea Michele from Glee) and Destiel (Castiel and Dean, played by Misha Collins and Jensen Ackles from Supernatural).
The surviving pairs weren't, however, incestuous, which was a real possibility given the popularity of Wincest in Supernatural fandom. See Catherine Tosenberger's 2008. piece "'The Epic Love Story of Sam and Dean': 'Supernatural,' Queer Readings, and the Romance of Incestuous Fan Fiction."
E! staffers seem to have been pretty surprised by how the tournament went. In round two's post:
Wow. Just when you think you know which couples have the biggest fan bases… Lots of shockers in the first round of our annual TV Couple's Tournament! A Glee favorite knocked out, unconventional pairings triumphing over long-established love affairs, and a very normal married couple taking down a supernatural romance. These are all reasons we so thoroughly enjoy our TV Couple's tournament, because no win is guaranteed.
The tone became surprised and condescending by round five: "Don't go changing, shippers. Especially now that we're down to only four in our TV's Top Couples tournament and we need your crazy Internet ways more than ever." Then, in the last voting post: "Holy fandemonium. You Glee and Supernatural fans are passionate when it comes to this final round of our TV's Top Couple tournament. How passionate? Well, let's just say you nearly crashed the entire site yesterday!"
E! found the intensity to be surprising and indeed suspicious enough to warrant verification:
Rachel Berry (Lea Michele) and Quinn Fabray (Dianna Agron) from Glee have won our TV's Top Couple megapoll! Now, when we say "mega" that is, in this case, apparently an understatement. The fans for "Faberry" (Fabray/Berry) as they call themselves, set a new record high for page turns on E! Online for any single post in the entire history of the website. Umm...yeah, we are just as stunned as you. Also, we did an investigation into this voting and it showed no signs of false play among "Faberry" fans: Just a group of hardcore, dedicated shippers who organized mass-voting times (all hours of the night), and obviously took this thing very seriously.
But it's perhaps a sign of the times that the non-canon nature of the outcome seems to have been more distressing to them than the same-sex aspect. Or, rather, the same-sex aspect was distressing because non-canon:
Now, I know what many of you who casually watch Glee are thinking: What the what?! Are Rachel and Quinn even a couple? And wait a minute, aren't they straight? Why yes, yes they are, as far as we know. But the "Faberry" fans believe these two belong together. And from the very first step of this Top Couple tournament, they represented, making sure that the pair received a nomination. As you may or may not recall, we left the nominations solely up to you. And after starting with 64 couples, we are left with the winners, Rachel and Quinn.
However, for all of E!'s shock and awe, the incident didn't surprise me. (Well, I was somewhat surprised by the scale—almost 400,000 votes in the final--but not the outcome). People who are denied official acknowledgement of their desire already have to be more affectively attached and put in more work to make it happen.
Moreover, the poll as a chance to make extremely visible to the people making Glee that this desire exists probably had something to do with it. Certainly, one fan site had it that the winning couple would have an interview—which I can't find substantiated at E! anywhere, but was probably inspiring even if untrue.
It just goes to show that shippers and slashers, for all their supposed "resistance" to the text, would ultimately really love for their couple of choice to be legitimized by appearing explicitly in the text—even if they would reserve the right to critique the execution—and this sort of entertainment-website poll is one way toward that goal.
Certainly, the actors involved in the couples in question felt a need to respond to this desire on the part of the fans. E! posted
a little message we got from Misha Collins (who is in the final two) after his pairing (Dean and Castiel) beat out Community's Jeff and Annie in the second-to-last round: "So often Hollywood and pop culture portray relationships that don't reflect real life and relationships that lack a moral compass. I think it's nice to see a stable couple with grounded values getting this attention over that perverse relationship between Joel McHale and that girl on that other show. I mean, look how they're kissing. It's disgusting—you can tell they're not even using tongue."
Quipping, "Just when you thought you couldn't love him more."
And then Agron tweeted this picture of herself and Michele,
captioned: "In honor of the voters! @luanarama: @DiannaAgron @msleamichele Faberry won the best couple on E! http://www.eonline.com/news/watch_with_kristin/tvs_top_couple_tournament_winner/294212 http://yfrog.com/es75gsknj"
So, you know, here's another way in which fans may be powerful, though I say that with a sizeable grain of salt (perhaps even a salt-crystal boulder). By sheer dedication and time put in, they got to see what they wanted, even if only for a minute, and even if the (platonic) Faberry scene that appeared in promos was ultimately cut from February 21st's episode over their #DontCutFaberry trending topic objection.
And, if we're thinking about the power of fan desire, it may be a total coincidence, but I'm quite suspicious about the timing of Agron publicly smooching the guy she supposedly broke up with in December the day those results came out. Maybe even straight girls need beards if people think they've got the gay. (Commenter Phil at this thread had the same suspicion)

Hagel for Equality: Defense Secretary Nominee Chuck Hagel Endorses Support For Same-Sex Couple Military Benefits
Chuck Hagel, President Barack Obama's pick for Defense secretary, supports equal benefits for same-sex military couples.
He made the pledge in a Monday letter to Sen. Barbara Boxer, D-Calif., where he also promised to support government-paid abortions for military women in cases of rape and incest and to improve sexual assault prevention programs ordered by Congress.
Boxer endorsed the nomination of the former Republican senator after receiving the letter, which also outlines Hagel's views on Iran, Israel and Hezbollah.
RELATED: Sen. Schumer endorses Hagel
On gays in the military, Hagel said he fully supports the 2010 repeal of the military's "don't ask, don't tell" policy.
"I know firsthand the profound sacrifice our service members and their families make," Hagel said, referring to his own combat service in Vietnam. "If confirmed as secretary of defense, I will do everything possible to the extent permissible under law to provide equal benefits to families of all our service members."
His options are limited as long as the Defense of Marriage Act of 1996 remains in effect. That law prevents most same-sex couples from receiving federal benefits, including military health care, housing allowances and travel payments.
Boxer also asked about Hagel's support for programs to combat sexual assault in the military and for the change in abortion policy that was ordered as part of the 2013 defense authorization bill.
Hagel said he is "committed to the full implementation of all recent policies and procedures" on sexual assault and will "ensure" the programs have full resources.
On abortion and reproductive rights, Hagel said he "will fully implement all laws protecting women service member's reproductive rights" and additionally pledged to work with Congress and the White House "to ensure female service members continue to be afforded world class health care, including reproductive health care."
"My goal is to ensure that the health care provided to our service members remains contemporary with the care provided to the private citizens of our nation," Hagel said.

Hey, thank you for stopping by my blog - I always get excited when I find a new blog to read :)
I'd most certainly stop for the dog. When it comes to humans I am stone cold unemotional but the slight hint of a distressed animal, I can't help but wade in! - Thu Sep 13, 04:35:00 PM EDT

Stop and do what? No tag? Knock on the houses and say "is this your dog?" Sure. If two people said they'd never seen it before I'd drive away. If they said, "sure, that dog's around here all the time," I would also then drive away.
- Thu Sep 13, 05:06:00 PM EDT
Tricky one. Honestly, I probably wouldn't stop the first time, but maybe on subsequent times. As a former border collie owner, I know that they will chase anything (everything, invent things to chase) because their herding and pursuit instinct is very strong, so that on its own is not raising any bells. They are also nippers and as part of their herding, they will bite your Achilles. They are extremely fast and smart.
Sadly, rural dog owners don't seem so concerned about dogs running loose, so I guess I'm a little blase even if I should not be. If I saw the dog out the next day, still exhibiting what you interpreted as anxiety chasing, maybe I would trust my gut then and try to get a collar on the dog. But I'd be in jeans and a pair of boots and maybe gloves, bettter believe it.

The intent would be to stop. But if we're talking about a dog running maniacally in heavy traffic, maybe the best I can do is pull over when it's safe and call 911. Traffic hazard, you know.
Besides, in my experience, most cats or dogs won't come to you unless they are nearly dying of hunger. Stranger danger I guess. - Thu Sep 13, 06:04:00 PM EDT
- ~~Silk said...
I'd pull over. (Dogs are different from cats - a lost, hungry, and lonely dog who used to have a family will come right to a stranger.) I'd collect the dog, make it somehow safe, then go back to the neighborhood later and ask questions.
[Verification word is "10 theyfun".] - Thu Sep 13, 08:48:00 PM EDT

P.S. Dogs who are simply chasing cars for fun have their attention on the wheels. Dogs who are looking for the master who abandoned them are jumping up frantically looking inside the car.

It is our war and it is about our security and our goals and ideals. I am happy with the pace at which the President is working this problem. He seems to be following the rules for a crisis—"Don't just do something, stand there."
Or, in the rules of the pilot handbook:
- Maintain Aircraft Control
- Analyze the Situation
- Take Appropriate Action.
Then, he, and Air Traffic Control, analyzed the situation. A couple of courses of action were considered and rejected. Then the hard decision was taken and everyone survived.
In an OpEd in The Washington Post Mr Ed Ruggero talks about the President and the Generals. What Mr Ruggero says makes sense to me.
There are some rumblings in the media, the the blogosphere and around the water cooler about a rift between the president and the generals responsible for fighting the war in Afghanistan. I don't think that's what's happening; what's more, I believe that reducing the on-going strategy discussions to some simple rubric like, "It's Obama vs. McChrystal" can be dangerous. What we can see, if we look closely, is a lesson for leaders on developing strategy and educating their constituencies.A line I used to use with my children was "I can give you an answer you won't like now or a good answer after I think about it."
The last three paragraphs of the OpEd:
This administration has gone to great lengths to make the discussions with the top generals as transparent as possible. The White House has been taking pains to remind people that the war is not necessarily about the stability of Afghanistan or the longevity of its corrupt government, or even the eradication of the Taliban (who, by any measure, are the among the world's worst bad guys). The big question is about the security of the United States, and how instability elsewhere affects us at home. The issues are complex, which is why the administration is, in my opinion, taking the time to educate the public on the issues.Regards — Cliff
Obama might still get it wrong; in Afghanistan, there may be many more ways to fail than to succeed. But here's what's most interesting to me: Complex issues such as this make Americans more, not less, likely to reduce everything to simple and even simple-minded sound bites and catch-phrases.
Yet so far in this debate, the White House, the political opposition, the generals themselves and even the media have--for the most part--resisted the urge to "dumb down" this complex problem. The optimist in me thinks that if we can continue to engage in an intelligent national conversation about this important and complex issue, well, we might be catching just a glimpse of how our democracy is supposed to work.

If you're trying to think of a doomsday device with a little pizzazz, you can't go wrong with this short tutorial that shows you how to make self-replicating nanobots that will replicate into a grey goo that will eventually overrun and consume all matter on Earth. All in six easy steps! I'd better get to practicing my maniacal cackle.
Comic writer Ed Brubaker, best known for his run on "Captain America" and his own book "Criminal", has a new webseries starring "Death Proof" star Zoe Bell. Bell plays an assassin who begins to hallucinate and be haunted by past victims after catching a combat knife to the skull. It's reminiscent of Max Payne (the game, not the movie) and has cameos from genre heavyweights like Doug Jones, Ted Raimi and Lucy Lawless. The first few episodes are up and a new episode will be released every week day until March 13. Here's the first episode:
There's a new meme going around the internet that will probably take its place alongside LOLcats and Chuck Norris jokes on "I Love the 2000ies" in about 10 years and feed Michael Ian Black's family for another week. Basically, you let the random functions of Wikipedia, Quotations Page and Flickr come up with your imaginary band's name, album title and cover image. You can see my first attempt above. I think Kanoê was a Norwegian band from the early 90s with a strong goth and new wave influence who broke up when their lead singer died in a tragic fjord accident.
If you need a name for your metal band, this chart will help ensure that your name reaches appropriate levels of metalocity. The awesome spiky font is entirely up to you.
Also, can any biblical scholars out there help me out- where exactly in the Book of Revelations does "Mexican Santa" appear?
One of the most amazing things about Netflix is how easy it is to track down even the rarest, most obscure movie that you'd never have a chance of seeing if you weren't in a major metropolitan area and were solely at the mercy of Blockbuster or Hollywood Video. For me, one of the holy grail movies I've been dying to see for the better part of a decade was a documentary called How's Your News?.
Two of the greatest things from the 80s come together in this fan-made video for French electronic duo Zombie Zombie. It's a pretty comprehensive and really well-done remake of John Carpenter's The Thing acted out entirely by G.I. Joes. How much do you wanna bet that this video is better than the upcoming The Thing prequel?
As you might know, the Sundance film festival is going on this week. It's not much of a festival for horror films but a few always manage to slip in. We reported on the fainting-spell-inducing Grace a few days ago. Now lets take a look at a few other genre-related films making their debut at Sundance.
Dead Snow
The word from Sundance this weekend is that the film Grace, produced by Hatchet-man Adam Green, actually caused two audience members to faint. The film stars Jordan Ladd as a mother-to-be who, after an accident leaves her unborn baby dead, decides to carry the baby to term and give birth to it stillborn. After being born, the baby miraculously comes back to life but with more of a taste for blood than Similac. Sounds like this could make for a nice second half of a double bill with Inside.
It's a new year and that means it's time for a new calendar. Instead of going for the fluffy kitten calendar from that kiosk in the mall for the fourth year in a row, might I suggest something a little different, something like cheesecake shots of leggy, half-naked, decomposing zombie girls. Yes, it exists.
Charlie Asher is a classic beta male done good. He owns a moderately successful second-hand store has a wife who is a few degrees out of his league and a baby on the way. Everything changes after the birth of his daughter. His wife's health takes a turn for the worse and as she is dying, Charlie sees a man in a mint green suit stealing her favorite cd from her hospital room. Unfortunately, no one else, including the security cameras can see this man.
This one comes to you literally from our Mom's basement...

Hutchison kept trailblazing as she became Texas' first female senator, but never made "women's issues" the main focus of her portfolio — which is noteworthy, said Jennifer Lawless, director of the Women & Politics Institute at American University's School of Public Affairs.
"She demonstrated that women don't have to be pigeonholed or stereotyped," Lawless said. "She normalized the fact that a woman could hold a Senate seat and not necessarily be more moderate than her male counterparts."
Cruz projects a more uncompromising approach than Hutchison's stated preference for bipartisanship, which she emphasized in her farewell address.
"This is an example of how increased party polarization in Congress has led to far more ideological and extreme candidates," Lawless said.
With the Republican Party suffering an identity crisis in the wake of Obama's re-election, Buchanan said, Cruz would be wise to look to Hutchison's approach as a model.
"Extremism of the right is not a good calling card now to appeal to a Republican electorate concerned with electability," Buchanan said. "His aspirations are more national than hers were. But he's a fellow who can understand the lay of the political land."

I just got done reading through how to setup a WoW macro on your site. It was really good as it taught me how to setup a macro but it really isn't very useful without the World of Warcraft macro commands that I can use. So, what are the WoW macro commands I can use in macros?
How Do I Setup A WoW Macro?
March 13, 2007 by Apadwe
Filed under WoW Macros
I have heard a lot of people mentioning using macros in-game. After getting the usual "stfu n00b" response after asking people, I really need World of Warcraft macro help. From what I have heard it can really help me do things a lot easier in the game. How do I setup a WoW macro and how do I use macros I have created?

Welp, I survived.. It was VERY uncomfortable and I cursed.. When I tried to sensor myself the doctor said, "I understand, let it out" I definitely let out a few more. The beginning and middle of the procedure was the worst (inserting the catheter, blowing up the balloon and inserting the dye). I starting hyperventilating and got dizzy/lightheaded. The doc paused the procedure so I could relax and breathe, the nurse came back with an ice pack to put under my neck. I was on Percocet and aleve.. It still hurt, but I had no cramping or anything afterwards so far. I have a little spotting but that's normal.
Just glad it's over and the HSG revealed no blockages, all is well in the womb!

A Brief History of...the Pony Express
150 years ago this weekend, the first Pony Express rider took off from St. Joseph, Missouri, with his bags of mail. On April 3, 1860, freight company magnates William H. Russell, William B. Waddell, and Alexander Majors founded the mail system to satisfy the need for faster communication with the West, especially with the Civil War looming. Riders braved dangerous terrain to deliver letters that were written on tissue paper wrapped in oil paper. At first, people paid a whopping $5 to mail a letter weighing half an ounce or less; that was later reduced to $2.50. Read more »

Chinatown in St. Louis?
The Library and Research Center's Margaret Blanke Grigg Reading Room displays material from our collections. Our first topic for the year was race and ethnicity in St. Louis. Once we decided on this topic my first thought went to a researcher who years ago used to use our library quite frequently. She was researching the Chinese in St. Louis. A few years later, two books have been added to our collections from that researcher.
What I found most interesting and something of a surprise was the early immigration of the Chinese to St. Read more »

With 5 weeks to go now until the 2008 Kentucky Derby, the picture is starting to get a little clearer. Big Brown's romp in the Florida Derby on 3/29 has shaken up the entire division. Will War Pass be able to return to form in the Wood Memorial? If so we've got ourselves a heck of a race coming up in May. If not we'll need some more contenders to step up here quickly. Interestingly, while at one point it looked like War Pass had a shot at being lone speed in the Kentucky Derby, there now figures to be a strong pace with or without him.
As always, you can either view my rankings on the main Road to the 2008 Kentucky Derby page, or you can use the "more" tag below. Read the rest of this entry »

shirt {c/o langford market}, shorts {nordstrom}, shoes {tory burch}, necklace {thrifted chanel}, bracelets {c/o maslinda}
I know that it's an outdated rule, but I can't help feeling guilty when I wear white after Labor Day [and before Easter]. However I've done it a couple times [like here, here, and here], and have yet to be arrested by the fashion police. But now that it's after Easter I'm free to rock the white without feeling even the slightest bit guilty. I still get a wee bit nervous though due to my knack of spilling spaghetti the only day I wear white, and those oh so haunting "embarrassing moments" columns from Teen Magazine. So I guess there's no getting around it, no matter what wearing white has me on high alert for messes and/or fashion jail. Yet I can't stop. It's an addiction really. Such the rebel.

A baseball fan jumps over a bonfire in celebration outside AT&T Park after the San Francisco Giants defeated the Detroit Tigers to win the MLB World Series baseball championship, in San Francisco, California October 29, 2012.
Credits: REUTERS/STEPHEN LAM
Victory celebrations turned violent in the streets of San Francisco in the hours after the Giants won the World Series against the Detroit Tigers on Sunday.
Several bonfires were lit. Fans were also climbing on top of vehicles, street signs and traffic lights. Police patrolled the streets in riot gear.
This isn't the first time San Francisco has dealt with violence after a World Series victory. When the Giants last won in 2010, excessive celebrations led to fires in the streets and property damage.
The Giants defeated the Tigers 4-3 in a 10-inning affair Sunday, taking the World Series in a four-game sweep.

I was on KAT bus #17 going inbound when this happened, the CB radio in the bus sounded with a Trolley driver's bus saying that a police cruiser with no active emergency equipment ran a red light and nailed a elderly ladies car. The cruiser did not have any of its emergency equipment activated and the trolley driver said he was staying as a witness. The trolley driver also said he had to slam on his brakes to avoid being hit as well. That was straight from the KAT CB radio band.

Did a Seagull Really Film This Gorgeous San Francisco Sunset?
According to YouTuber Nathalie Rollandin, the soaring view in the video above is not attributed to a hanglider, but rather a pesky seagull that stole her GoPro camera and flew over the water in front of the Golden Gate Bridge. In the caption, the lucky tourist expressed her amazement at how "the camera incredibly managed to survive, recording everything!"
Sold to her viewers as "A flying video from a seagull's mouth! A San Francisco sunset I will hardly forget…," the video, which presents an iconic Californian landmark from a unique POV, has been flying around the Internet this week and catching the attention of news channels.
While some commenters are quick to yell, "fake!" we'll give Nathalie the benefit of the doubt for now. Whether it's a marketing scheme for GoPro or just a very spontaneous stroke of luck, a viral video is a viral video.

NASA has agreed to Google's plans to build a 1.2 million square foot office complex at the Ames Research Center near its Mountain View, California headquarters. Google will rent 42.2 acres of land for $3.6 million per year. Construction begins in 2013 and the final phase of the project, which is expected to include employee housing, will start in 2022.
The initial lease is set for 40 years, but could be renewed for as much as 50 years. This isn't the only agreement Google has with the government space program. Google co-founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin park their private planes at Moffett Federal Airfield for a mere $1.3 million per year and an agreement to fly NASA's equipment on research missions.

Greening Western Queens Fund Common Questions
Are you currently accepting applications for funding?
Yes, the deadline to apply is Thursday, September 20, 2012 at 5pm . Click here for application instructions and to download the application form.
Why are projects within the boundaries being prioritized for funding?
The settlement between the community and Consolidated Edison Company of New York agreed that the funds will be used for energy-efficiency and environmental projects and prioritized in the community affected by the 2006 Long Island City, Woodside, Sunnyside and Astoria network electric power outages in Consolidated Edison Company of New York's service territory. The areas indicated on the interactive map have been identified by the Department of Public Service as representing the majority of the areas impacted by the blackout.
Why is North Star Fund/Greening Western Queens Fund focusing primarily on urban forestry and environmental projects?
Through the community's settlement with Con Edison, it was identified that urban forestry and greening projects would be prioritized for the grant making in order to lessen the future demand for energy and prevent similar blackouts from occurring in the future.
My organization is not located in the affected area but we want to start a project in Western Queens. Can we apply?
Organizations do not need to be located in the affected area to qualify for a grant, but projects must be. Please refer to the map to see if your project fits within the prioritized boundaries of the area. Organizations must have knowledge of the community, and the ability to work with and involve it. Organizations must also have a track record of success in the project or field.
Can we use this money to green our residential building or plant trees in front of our building?
Although we value the work, we will not consider support for individual efforts or tree planting on private property. Additionally, Greening Western Queens funds may not be used to resource projects that can be funded by, duplicate, or replace current commitments by government agencies. Please see the greening resources list to see if your project can be supported by government agencies.
I am a current grantee of a North Star Fund, can I apply?
Yes, current and past grantees of North Star Fund are encouraged to apply as long as the work/project benefits the affected community of the Western Queens blackout and fits the funding guidelines.
We are a small group of residents with a project that will benefit the whole community. Do we need a fiscal sponsor or our own 501(c)(3) to apply?
Small groups of residents may apply for a project but will need a fiscal sponsor. The Greening Western Queens Fund will only consider groups that are tax exempt organizations or have a have a fiscal sponsor with 501(c)(3) status. Projects must contribute to a more environmentally sustainable western Queens, result in projects with visible and lasting impact in the affected western Queens neighborhoods and ensure that products and outcomes are public, accessible and beneficial to residents of the affected areas.
Can I use this money to get a few trees planted on our block or a tree in front of our building?
These funds are not to be used for individual tree planting or planting on private property. To get trees on your block, call the Parks Department at 311.
Our project is not located in the boundaries of your map, but close to it. Can we apply?
We recognize that certain areas outside of the marked boundaries were affected by the 2006 blackout. If you are able to demonstrate that the area where the project is implemented was impacted by the blackout, then it may still be prioritized.
All projects located in Astoria, Long Island City, Sunnyside and Woodside will be considered.
My project does not fit within the criteria of this fund. Where else can I find support?
Please visit http://dsireusa.org for additional resources that may help support your project.
What if I still have questions?
Please call us at 212-620-9110 or email firstname.lastname@example.com for more information.
