Commissioners modify contract for jail project
The county commissioners signed an emergency resolution in January to add a cooling tower to the jail that would augment the facility�s faulty air conditioning system. The commissioners chose the Hydronic & Steam Equipment Co. of South Bend to build the tower for $248,254. But as county administrator Tom Byers pointed out Monday, the commissioners had to modify the contract.
�We ran into a little bit of an issue,� Byers told the commissioners. �The contract now is with Griffen Plumbing and Heating. It was originally the subcontractor Hydronic Steam. Hydronic Steam is nothing more than a manufacturer of the unit, and when we presented the public works contract to Hydronic, they got a little nervous because there are certain provisions in a public works contract that were kind of new to them being a supplier.�
The clause that Hydronic & Steam was concerned about was the sizeable amount of liability insurance required by the agreement, Byers said. The contractor is required to have at least $1 million in public liability insurance and $2 million in the aggregate. Byers said Hydronic & Steam�s concerns were reasonable, so the county turned to Griffen for the project.
�We have altered the contract, but we�re still dealing with Hydronic Steam, but we�re dealing with them through Griffen Plumbing and Heating,� Byers explained.
Byers told the commissioners that Griffen has signed off on the contract with the county.
�Nothing has changed about the project,� he said. �It�s the same unit. It�s the same cost.�

Reviews by Pelicanrocks:More User Reviews:DefenCorpsOregon 4.26/5 rDev +0.7% look: 4 | smell: 4.5 | taste: 4.25 | feel: 4 | overall: 4.25 Bottled 12 Nov. A mildly hazy dark amber with a dense, khaki head with good retention and nice lacing, this looks good. The blood red highlights are nice too. The nose!talk about hops! So fresh and fragrant! Pine, mint, juniper, citrus, grapefruit, all wonderfully integrated and juicy, this is a beautiful expression of hops. Leaning heavily on aromatic hops and less on bittering hops, this is clean and soft, lacking in grassy notes. Caramel and toffee are present, pulling this deep into Nugget Nectar territory. A little bit of brown sugar is present as well. Awesome stuff. The palate opens with a blend of modest hop bitterness and plenty of hop flavor. Pine and grapefruit are most dominant, but I also get a good amount of navel oranges and a little mint. The mid palate brings out flavors of toffee, brown sugar, burnt sugar and caramel, but thankfully, this beer isn't particularly sweet. In fact, the way this feels on the palate reminds me again of NN. Bitter on the finish with a mild pine resin character, this beer is medium light in body and has a medium high level of carbonation. The carbonation level is a little higher than I'd like, but the flavors and balance on the finish is excellent. Excellent stuff, I imagine this would be incredible on cask. Very highly recommended.

Pours lightly hazy ruby red color with a 2 finger dense light khaki head with great retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lingers. Nice soapy lacing clings around the glass. Aromas of big pineapple, mango, tangerine, grapefruit, lemon zest, orange zest, caramel, toast, toffee, biscuit, floral, grass, light pine, and floral earthiness. Damn nice aromas with good balance and complexity of hop and malt notes; with good strength. Taste of big pineapple, mango, tangerine, grapefruit, lemon zest, orange zest, caramel, toast, toffee, biscuit, floral, grass, pine, and floral earthiness. Moderate earthy pine bitterness on the finish; with lingering notes of pineapple, mango, citrus, caramel, toast, toffee, biscuit, floral, grass, pine, and floral earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Fantastic complexity of hop and malt flavors; with a great malt/bitterness balance and zero cloying flavors after the finish. Medium carbonation and body; with a moderately creamy, smooth, crisp, and sticky mouthfeel that is great. Alcohol is very well hidden with only a slight warming present after the finish. Overall this is a highly excellent hoppy amber ale. All around great complexity and balance of hop and malt flavors; and very smooth and crisp to sip on for the ABV. A highly enjoyable offering.

Well hello there,
At the current moment I am willing to take any and all suggestions. I will list a few things I adore to do below, but honestly if we can just get a great roleplay going I honestly won't care to much what the subject matter is. One small thing though, I would prefer to roleplay over a type of messenger, its faster and more efficient in my mind.But am willing to discuss other options if you are not comfortable with a messenger.
Rules- They are sweet, simple and to the point!
Please be at least semi-literate. I along with many other of my other fellow roleplayer's, I am literate, so I expect you to at least meet me half way.
No despises.
No list introductions.
Please make your introductions at least worth reading. Five sentences is the minimum amount my book, I understand sometimes you have writer's block. That's understandable I myself have it sometimes too,
but please at least try and be creative.
I do roleplay both male and female. That does not mean you can just assume I will roleplay as male. I prefer female if you must know, since I am a female. But there are certain roleplay's where I like to play just male. Feel free to ask me which ones those are!
I am willing to double if you are.
I personally have no limitations, if you do tell me. I would not want our roleplaying friendship to be ruined over something as silly as being uncomfortable.
If you don't like the way our roleplay is going, don't just stop talking to me! You have no idea how much that anger's me! I think our roleplay is going great and then you just disappear or don't talk to me! Tell me if you want something to change, I will understand!! You have no idea how many roleplay's have been ruined because of that!
Here are a few things I am in the mood for!
-Civil War (Or anything mid century modern)
-Arranged Marriage
-Country boy x city girl
-Post Apocalyptic
Once again like I said suggest, I roleplay so so so much more. Thank you so much for taking the time to read my short little post. If you wish to check out my site here is the URL:
Has many more genres and my messenger names available.

Telling the Whole Story The Flight of Chen GuangchengBy: Eric Metaxas|Published: May 7, 2012 7:14 AM Topics: Freedom of Religion/Speech, Human Rights & Persecution, International Affairs, Politics & Government The whole world loves a good escape story. But in the case of a certain Chinese dissident, the world needs to hear the rest of the story. Listen Now | Download[Editor's note: According to published reports, including one in the Wall Street Journal ("Chen Affair Highlights Christian Ties,") it may be that Chen Guangchen is not himself a Christian. It is clear, however, that Chen was closely affiliated with and aided by Chinese Christian human rights activists. We sincerely apologize for the error, and thank our listeners for raising the issue with us!]
He used his legal skills to defend the victims of government oppression: disenfranchised peasants, the disabled, and women forced to have abortions as a result of China's infamous "one-child" policy. This last effort officially made him an enemy of the state. He was arrested and convicted on what most observers consider to be trumped-up charges. After serving fifty-one months in jail, he was placed under house arrest. In an effort to silence him, officials surrounded his home with guards, surveillance cameras and even installed a jamming device to prevent him from communicating with the outside. In response, Chen played what the "New York Times" called a "cat and mouse game" with his would-be jailers: He tried to a dig a tunnel, smuggled videos and, finally, on April 22nd, he escaped. The escape was so well-executed that his jailers didn't know he was gone until the following Thursday. He then made his way, via a series of safe houses and with the help of fellow dissidents, three hundred miles to Beijing and, eventually, the U.S. Embassy. Oh, by the way, did I mention that Chen is blind? Throw in details like actor Christian Bale's being manhandled by Chinese guards when he tried to visit Chen, and it's little wonder that the media is all over the story. Yet, in all the coverage there is no mention of what motivates Chen Guangcheng: Namely, his Christian faith. Chen is part of what is called the "weiquan movement." It's a group of "lawyers, activists, intellectuals and ordinary citizens who aim to push the boundaries of reform by using China's existing laws and courts to defend human rights." They are overwhelmingly Christian. Li Subin, one of the movement's best-known activists, says that he takes his inspiration from Proverbs 21:3, "to do righteousness and justice is more acceptable to the Lord than sacrifice." This willingness to push has made them a target for Chinese officials. Like Chen, Li has served time in prison for his efforts on behalf of the poor and marginalized. Reading about Chen, Li, and their comrades, I couldn't help but think about Dietrich Bonhoeffer and his comrades. In both instances, the response to monstrous evil was to speak out at great personal risk. Just as Bonhoeffer decided that his place was in Germany alongside his suffering brethren, Chen has said that he does not wish to leave China and wants to "continue his efforts for Chinese society." However, as I record this, it appears that he now fears for the safety of his family and may seek asylum in the U.S. for himself and his loved ones. Whether he will get the chance is another question because, in another unfortunate parallel, it's not-at-all clear that the rest of the world is willing to hold China accountable. News reports use words like "complicated" and "crisis" to describe the impact of Chen's escape on US-China relations — relations in which righteousness and justice are trumped by dollars and yuan. However it turns out, Chen's full story needs to be told. What he did is remarkable. And why he did it — faith in Jesus Christ — is no less so. Editor's Note: Chen Guangcheng, accompanied by his family, said he is confident that the Chinese government will allow him to study in the United States.Further Reading and Information

It was a nice place. Was a little strange having to take the elevator. especially when there was two and if you didn't take the one on the left you wouldn't get to the reception. But nice place good wifi connections.

I stayed in the hostel for one night only prior to attending a conference. The hostel is just what you want, really. The rooms are clean, as are the bathrooms. The staff were really helpful; I don't speak Spanish, the cleaners didn't speak English, but whenever I needed something, they would immediately get a member of staff who spoke English. That was great.

A nice, cheap and quiet place. It takes 30 minutes to walk to the old town. The neighborhood was fine, everything you need is around. Sometimes in the afternoon the internet connection was really slow. The staff was friendly and easy going.

Glimcher Realty Trust has joined the growing list of developers hoping to build an outlet mall in central Ohio.
The Columbus-based mall developer and operator is looking at property in Madison County, according to a county official.
"(Glimcher) came in to review our development standards in mid-November ... for an outlet mall-type property," said David Hughes, director of the Madison County building and zoning department.
The 52-acre site Glimcher is interested in is farmland located just north of I-70, near London, he said.
"They also talked about included additional acreage," Hughes said.
This is the fourth proposal for an outlet mall in the region, but experts say it is likely that only one will be built, and that the ultimate winner will be the developer that signs up the most important anchor retailers. Glimcher officials declined to answer questions about the potential outlet mall project in Madison County, but they issued a statement.
It said the company keeps "a robust pipeline of potential acquisitions and development opportunities. ... Should we find the right location, the right pricing and the right interest from our retail partners, we would love the opportunity to grow our portfolio and expand the outlet collection."
The three other proposals include two near the I-71 and Rts. 36/37 interchange in Delaware County and one in New Albany, on Beech Road, just north of Rt. 161.
"It's a great question whether any of them will actually be built," said local developer Robert Weiler, who has reason to be interested in which project actually comes to fruition. Weiler and Nationwide Realty Investors have about 2,000 acres north of the I-71 and Rts. 36/37 interchange for their mixed-use Northstar project. About 350 acres are zoned for commercial use, and the remainder is zoned for residential units, Weiler said.He said that project will be built in stages regardless of whether its outlet mall proposal comes to pass.
"The tenants are the ones who will drive this," Weiler said of the major outlet retailers such as Banana Republic, Ann Taylor and Nike. "I know they need eight to 10 of the important players to form a nucleus, and then the smaller ones will fall into place once they know for sure where the outlet mall is going."
California-based Craig Realty and local developer Pat Shively announced plans in December for a 350,000-square-foot outlet center just south of the interchange. It would be part of the larger, mixed-use NorthGate Centre Development that Shively has been working on for several years.
Indianapolis-based Simon Property Group and North Carolina-based Tanger Outlets announced plans in late November for a 350,000-square-foot outlet center just off the busy interchange.
The third outlet-mall plan to emerge came from the New Albany Co. It made a presentation to the New Albany planning commission on Jan. 7 requesting a zoning change to permit "a mixture of commercial uses including retail uses" for a 108-acre parcel of land at Smith's Mill and Beech roads.
The company is working with Michigan-based Horizon Group Properties.
Shively has previously said, "There is only going to be one outlet mall in central Ohio, and the retailers will pick the one they think has the best demographics and location."

DEWITT -- This week's Bryant and Stratton CNY Central Athlete comes from Jamesville-DeWitt.
Tyler Cavanaugh is a junior forward for the Red Rams' basketball team. While Cavanaugh stands 6'8", he's just as comfortable behind the arc as he is in the paint.
Cavanaugh has a unique skill set, a forward who shoots the three and even plays the point when needed for the Red Rams.
He says that versatility is his best attribute.
"I think my veracity is a great aspect of my game and I've always prided myself on that. Being able to shoot the three and play inside, so if I'm not shooting well I can go inside," Cavanaugh says.
J-D head coach Bob McKinney says Cavanaugh has been getting some looks from division one basketball programs. But for now, Cavanaugh says he's focused on winning a fourth consecutive state title for the Red Rams.
Congratulations to this week's Bryant and Stratton CNY Central Athlete, Tyler Cavanaugh.

Comment: they look good on my 950 v-star had to make some adjustments to mount them. one of the bags had two rivets missing on the back. I used two small bolts to keep the back panel in place.

Comment: Got my bags in record time. Best value around for the price. Fit my Raider just right. Had to modify my bag supports with the help of a friend but they look really excellent. Would recommend this site to all my friends. Thanks Jarfrum for an excellent product for the price. A very satisfied new customer.

Comment: I looked around for some bags I was sure that would fit my ACE with the Stock pipes and these barley cleared it. The previous bags actually rested on the pipe but it had flashing so it did not matter. They look very nice on the bike , They seem to be very sturdy and very well made. The Lock that locks the harness to the bags are a bit hard to thread while they are on the bike, but thats fine. I only wish they were a bit deeper, but I have a luggage rack anyway, so whatever. That was my fault. I would recommend them on an aesthetic basis for sure, but if you tour you definatly would want something deeper and wider.

Comment: These bags were better than expected and I'm very happy with them on my Yamaha Virago 750. The picture really doesn't do them justice. They accent the bike very well and the slanted style looks custom. There is enough room for me to keep items such as rain wear, bike cover, gloves, hats and a spare shirt. I would very much recommend these bags.
Comment: Great looking bags, compliment my 2006 HD Fatboy really well. Quality product.

Comment: Probabely my fault for ordering Friday evening of a long weekend. My bags came the following Saturday and I could not be happier with them. They look great on my kawi 500. First ride out had someone ask about them. I highly recommend Jafrum.

Comment: Was very impressed with how fast the product was shipped, made it to the front door the very next day. Quality of these bags are great, wasnt sure how well these bags would fit on my v-star 250 but it went on without any problems and have no complaints, deffinately cant beat the price. Highly recommend this place to future customers.

Comment: Very pleased with the saddlebags. They look good, and they've kept things dry. Didn't even have to install supports because of the hard backs on the bags. I've had a number of good comments on how they dressed up my Virago.

Comment: Very nice bags. Good quality and look great on my Harley XL1200C...they can be mounted with the stock taillights. They are easy to open and close; the material is not as stiff as with some bags. Arrived exactly when said. For the money I think these are an excellent buy.
Comment: These are some attractive saddlebags that seems to be sturdy and durable. They do come with a life time warranty. I would have love to have been able to use these bags on my bike. However, I was unable to make them work on my 2013 H-D FLS Softail Slim as throw-overs, mounting them under the solo rider and passenger pillion seats. The throw-over yoke was a little too wide and too thick. Also, for softails, you will need to use saddlebag supports.

Comment: Wow! It was no lie. Fast and Fantastic! They look great on my Honda 600 VTX, quality was really beyond what I expected. One other point, as a female biker, my purse goes inside the bag easily, and I have gear in the bottom as well.
Red Lion PA
Comment: I bought these bags off the review of another fellow biker. I'm not disappointed with their review. I have an 09 street Bob they fit perfectly. I had to modify them for my particular bike because I have a luggage rack. I made a small slit in the leather that connects the two bags to fit around my luggage rack, laced the slit back together with the nylon rope provided with the bags and I'm beyond satisfied. The price point is great for a blue collar worker like me. They were originally a $250 set of bags and I paid $75 are you kidding me $75 go to Harley you'll pay $750. They're lockable and removable for security. I'm so satisfied with jafrum and their service I've recommended them to every biker I know. If you're looking for great bags at a great price these are the ones for you.

Comment: I recently ordered these bags for my 2005 Kawasaki Vulcan 800 to replace my old saddlebags. They arrived in two days, were a breeze to put on without any adjustment, and LOOK GREAT. They were also a great price. Always a pleasure doing business with Jafrum.

Love this mattress pad...thicker than most but not too thick to bunch up. Fits the bed perfectly and is very comfortable to sleep on. I haven't washed it yet but it seems big enough that if it should shrink a little it wouldn't matter. I have a king size and it seems way too big to put in a regular washing machine...will have to take somewhere with the big loaders.
I ordered a double and received a king size. Quality was very inferior--would not have kept even if they had shipped the right size (made in China garbage). Customer service was great and return shipping free.
Love the comfort. I have purchase one for each of our guest beds as well as for my own.
called a " dream cloud" and it IS!! fits like a glove on my king mattress and when we washed it, it came out beautifully and fluffy. Even my cats love to sleep on it............put some more regular sheets on and they are just the most comfy bed I have ever been on.
Loved it. So thick and soft.... unitl I washed it and it fell apart. Now its money in the trash.

Medical Terminology Distance Learning Course
There are 10 lessons in this course:
Each lesson culminates in an assignment which is submitted to the school, marked by the school's tutors and returned to you with any relevant suggestions, comments, and if necessary, extra reading.
Medical Terminology is not only used in medicine by Doctors and Nurses; but is also used in a wide range of associated professions. These related professions include Dentistry, Veterinary Care, Medical practice managers, Medical receptionists and many types of natural therapies.
This course is aimed to develop your awareness of terms not only used by Doctors and Nurses, but also by other allied professionals.
Anyone working in any of these professions will benefit from doing this course.
There are three parts to most medical terms:
1. The Word Root This is usually the middle of the word and provides its core meaning.
2. The Prefix This is normally at the start and commonly identifies a part of the core meaning.
3. The suffix This comes at the end and modifies the core meaning (eg. What it is interacting with or what is happening to it).
By developing an understanding of the components that are commonly used in these systematically constructed words it is (in time) easier to both understand and remember the meanings of the terminology.

Souvenir stalls in Washington, D.C., sell memorabilia ahead of President Obama's second inauguration. A public ceremony is planned for Monday. Agence France-Presse/Getty Images
Days before his inauguration to a second term, President Barack Obama is in a strong political position, but leads a country riddled with pessimism about the economy and his ability to improve it, a new Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll finds.
President Obama's job approval is strong, but Americans remain downbeat about the economy, a Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll found. Janet Hook joins Lunch Break with details.
Americans see some signs of improvement in the economy but are mostly downbeat about the next four years and about their own financial prospects, a grim contrast to the buoyant mood of Inauguration Day four years ago.
"If 2009 was all about hope, 2013 is about the ability to cope," said Peter D. Hart, the Democratic pollster who conducted the survey of 1,000 adults with Republican pollster Bill McInturff. "Americans still perceive tough times ahead, and I think they have lowered their sights."
Mr. Obama has emerged largely unscathed from a battle with congressional Republicans in recent weeks that produced a last-minute deal to raise income-tax rates on upper brackets while extending Bush-era rates for most Americans. Some 52% of adults approve of his job performance, a higher rating than through most of his first term.
In an ominous sign for both parties, the protracted and inconclusive budget battle has taken a toll on the public's confidence in the economy. Just over half of those surveyed said they were less confident about the economy as a result of the budget negotiations. "This is now Washington's economy," said Mr. McInturff. "The problem in Washington is…contributing to a very negative sense of what's going to happen in the economy."
"The clouds and pessimism about the economy are going to continue to make it very difficult for anyone in Washington to catch a break in terms of Americans' opinion," he said.
One measure of the public's sour mood was that only 43% said they were feeling optimistic about the next four years. That falls short of the 48% who said as much in 2005, when then-President George W. Bush started his second term.
Asked specifically about their economic prospects, only 34% said they expected 2013 to be a "time of economic expansion" for their families; 60% said they saw the coming year as "a time to hold back and save, because harder times are ahead."
The poll found that Mr. Obama had lost standing on several fronts compared with his first term, most notably on his ability to change the way Washington works. Only 12% of those polled gave him very high marks for his ability to deal with Congress. And on economic matters, only 36% said that they were very or fairly confident in his ability to strengthen the economy; more of those polled—43%—had that confidence in Mr. Bush as he was sworn in to his second term.
People seem little moved—either positively or negatively—by the president's new cabinet selections. But his departing secretary of state, Hillary Clinton, has emerged with high ratings: 69% of those surveyed approved of the job she has done.
The Republican Party saw its standing plummet to a record low. Some 49% of those surveyed had a negative view of the GOP, compared with 26% who saw the party in a positive light. The previous record low was set in August 2010, when 46% viewed Republicans negatively.
The report card for House Speaker John Boehner (R., Ohio) was particularly grim. He was viewed positively by 18% and negatively by 37%. Positive views of the tea party dropped to 23%—the lowest since such polling began in January 2010.
Democrats as a party were viewed more positively than negatively, by 44% to 38%.
The drop in positive views of the GOP, from 30% in December, had little to do with changed opinions among independents or Democrats but instead to increasing negativity among core Republicans. While those strong partisans viewed the GOP favorably, with 69% holding positive views and 12% holding negative views, the result marked a steep drop in support from December, when 91% of core Republicans held positive views and 2% negative views. The change may have reflected disillusionment with the budget talks.
The poll also included a warning to Republicans in their impending face-off with Mr. Obama over the federal debt limit: More people said they would blame the GOP if the standoff means the federal government can't meet its obligations than would blame Mr. Obama and congressional Democrats, 45% to 33%.
People had a strong message to Congress that seemed directed at both parties: Asked what one thing they would tell congressional leaders as they begin their new term, almost four of 10 said: "Work together."
The Wall Street Journal / NBC News poll was based on
nationwide telephone interviews of 1,000 adults, including a sample of 300 who use only a cellphone. It was conducted from Jan. 12-15, 2013, by the polling organizations of Peter D. Hart and Bill McInturff.
Individuals were selected proportionate to the nation's population in accordance with a probability sample design that gives all landline telephone numbers, listed and unlisted, an equal chance to be included. Adults age 18 or over were selected by a systematic procedure to provide a balance of respondents by sex. The cellphone sample was drawn from a list of cellphone users nationally, and respondents were screened to ensure that their cellphone is their only phone.
The data's margin of error is plus or minus 3.1 percentage points. Sample tolerances for subgroups are larger.

Delight Making is the path of remembering the magical and amazing being inside; a natural born Delight Maker, full of love, light, joy and laughter. It is a process that unmasks the illusion of a small self and reveals our deep connection to all life.
The Delight Maker name comes from the Native American Indian culture. It is the name that they gave to their teachers of magic, and also their name for the metaphysical or unseen intelligence within the universe.
Consider the idea that the driving intelligence within the universe, nature, or however you choose to express it, is the ultimate Delight Maker, and that all living beings are part of the delight making…..
How can any living being, how can you, be separate from the source of life, from nature? Is it possible to be separate from something that is within you and that you are within? And if you cannot be separate, then you must be a part of it. This perspective provides a refreshing point of view; one which celebrates the awesome potential of being alive and connected to the very source of life itself. Delight making is living from this understanding, and celebrating the abundance, wonder and mystery of which we are a part.
The Delight Makers were also the men and women of magic who taught the society to look at itself, to confront the madness of its unconscious and less pleasant behaviour and to challenge them to realize their potential by showing them the incredible possibilities of which they were capable.
The Delight Maker Alchemy events are beyond entertainment. They are designed as a magical awakening experience in which the audience participates throughout, and is a part of the entire journey. In fact, the audience is the event, and also the Alchemy.

Pope Benedict XVI has said he plans to be "hidden from the world" after he resigns from his position of leader of the Catholic Church in two weeks time.
On Thursday the 85-year-old Catholic Leader met with thousands of priests from the diocese of Rome, where he delivered a 45-minute unscripted speech.
Read More: Irish pope is called for in Los Angeles Times op-ed article
He told the gathering of priests: "Even if I am withdrawing into prayer, I will always be close to all of you and I am sure that you will be close to me, even if I remain hidden from the world".
In a statement announcing his resignation last Monday he said he would retire to "a life dedicated to prayer."
On Thursday a Vatican spokesperson confirmed the Pope had hit his head on the trip to Mexico in March 2012. However, he denied this had any "relevant" role in his resignation.
Vatican spokesman Federico Lombardi confirmed the incident but said "it was not relevant for the trip, in that it didn't affect it, nor in the decision" to resign.
Many of the comments being posted are incredibly bigoted ! The impression that a 85 year man is retiring seems to create in some peoples mind that there is a an ulterior motive is mind boggling . Tell me a major worldwide organisation who at its head an 85 year old person . Pope Benedict has served the Catholic Church well and deserves some serenity at this stage of his existence Name me a bloody civil servant who "works " after the age of 65 ,never mind 85 !!!
At the Congress of Vienna in 1815, after the defeat of Napoleon a decision was made for Britain, Russia, Prussia and Austria to enforce a policy called Legitimacy, that is, the restoration of monarchs whose legitimacy as monarchs preceded the upstart Napoleon. As a result the Pope, as absolute monarch, was restored to the throne of the Papal States. A further decision was made to strengthen the Legitimacy policy by encouraging the pope to declare himself infallible and thus order all upstarts against legitimate authority, such as the Irish, to obey their masters. The English, Irish, German and other bishops voted against papal infallibility and it was defeated. But the pope simply waited for them to go home and then had the remaining bishops vote for it.
To mreinhar2001 ... You missed a bit on papal infallibility, the pope is supposedly infallible when speaking "ex cathedra" on matters of faith and MORALITY. This includes papal interpretations of the peculiar roman catholic theory of Natural Law, a philosophic theory some of which is supposedly based on science but is in fact based on pseudo-science. The natural law theory is completely rationalized, worked out in the pope's head without any empirical observation. In addition the theory states that the sole and supreme interpreter of the natural law is the pope and that the pope's dcrees on natural law are binding on all humans of any faith or no faith and on all governments. Thus we have the bizarrre "infallibility" against contraceptives.
To mreihar2001 ... I am well aware of the Roman Catholic theory of papal infallibility, a theory partly advanced by the British government at that time so that the infallible pope could order the Irish bishops to obey their legitimate masters, the British government.
My comment will not load.
@WoundedKnee has some very good points and I concur with all of them.
@CitizenWhy: A correction, if you will. The person is not ifallible, the person in the office is infallible and then, only on certain matters. When a pope speaks "ex cathedra," he speaks infallibly on matters of the church, not other times. (If the pope eats a burger and syas, "That burger was way over cooked," that is not an infallible statement.) The last time a pope spoke infallibly was in 1950 when Pius XII declared that the Blessed Virgin Mary (the mother of Jesus, the Christ) was assumed body and soul into heaven at the end of her life. So there would not be two "two infallible people in the church at the same time." Just FYI.
Of course he will be hidden. Hidden because it would be confusing to have two infallible people in the church at the same time. And hidden because he faces prosecution based on his cover up of child rapes (Germany) and law suits from victims (International Court in Der Haag).
Hidden? He should be buried alive for his crimes. He won't be travelling now because he can't hide behind diplomatic immunity any more so he has to avoid being charged with covering up child rape and torture by his troops around the globe. He can sit around with his fellow fugitive Bernard Law.
I think this guy has a lot to hide and to hide from. Something seems off about all this.
I think he is a good man, and wish him well. Hopefully this will put a stop to the crazy rush to canonize his predecessor. I was never impressed by the Polish Pope while he was alive, even though he got a free run from the fawning media. I think it is time to investigate how much the man from Poland knew of the sex abusers who have nearly destroyed our Catholic institutions.

The Department of Defense today announced the release of a mobile application to help service members adjust to life at home after returning from combat deployments.
Positive Activity Jackpot, developed by the National Center for Telehealth and Technology, uses augmented reality with a smart phone's GPS to help find nearby activities and diversions for someone used to the high tempo of combat life.
The center, known as T2, used a behavioral therapy called pleasant event scheduling as the basis for design of the application. The therapy encourages a daily schedule of enjoyable activities to improve moods and overcome depression.
"After returning from a combat deployment, service members who are used to a more structured daily schedule may have difficulty adjusting to life at home," said Dr. Amanda Edwards Stewart, psychologist who led the development of Positive Activity Jackpot. "This can lead to difficulties with relationships, depression and other problems. "
The application, available for Android systems, has an extensive list of pre-programmed activities.

Faculty, Administration and Staff: If you were unable to join us for the Regalia Purchase and Rental event last week, you will need to order your regalia via the customer service line (custom regalia) or online (rental).
Purchase Program - https://college.oakhalli.com/college/govstfaculty/ or please contact Oak Hall's customer service line between the hours of 7:30 a.m. and 6 p.m., at 800.223.0429 (mention Governors State University).
Rental Program - https://college.oakhalli.com/college/govstfaculty/
Benefits of the program:
Regalia options include:
Because the university is subsidizing the purchase of academic regalia by university employees, the university will no longer provide employees with rented academic regalia. If employees prefer to rent academic regalia rather than purchase their own personalized regalia, each individual employee will be able to arrange rental of academic regalia with Oak Hall Cap & Gown at the employee's expense.
Frequently Asked Questions Concerning GSU Academic Regalia
Q: Who will wear the new regalia?
A: This regalia can be worn by GSU faculty, administration, and staff who are now in academic positions where they are expected to wear regalia in Commencement and other ceremonies. Usually, they have the option of renting standard regalia, but many prefer to have their own custom-made. The expectation is that they would have the opportunity to use this many times throughout their careers.
Q: How much will it cost?
A: You will pay 50 percent of the cost to purchase your regalia and GSU will pay 50 percent of the remaining cost of your regalia as listed below. The entire set, which includes the gown, hood, tam, tassel, garment bag, and initials inside gown, is as follows:
Again, we expect that faculty, administration, and staff who are in academic positions will be wearing this regularly over the span of their careers will be interested in making this investment.
Q: Can I purchase my alma mater's regalia?
A: Yes, you may. If you'd like to upgrade or purchase your own institution's regalia, GSU will only pick up the cost of the purchase program pricing offered. You will have to pay the difference. (Example: If your custom order for a Doctor Gown is $700, you will pay $480 and GSU will pay $219.50)
Q: I am a member of the GSU Faculty but I attended another university. What should I wear if I would like to participate in a GSU Commencement ceremony?
A: We enthusiastically encourage our faculty to participate in Commencement! If you are not an alumnus/a of the school, you would wear the regalia of your alma mater for your highest academic degree. You may either purchase your own (you may look up your school on the Oak Hall website or check with the school itself) or rent regalia (at your own expense) through Oak Hall as well.
Q: Who is producing our regalia?
A: We have commissioned Oak Hall Cap & Gown to manufacture our regalia. This is a highly-respected company that produces regalia for the Ivy League and many other schools. It is based in Salem, VA. The company's website can be found at www.oakhalli.com
Q: Why do we need special academic regalia?
A: Many schools, including those in the Ivy League, have their own distinctive regalia for use in official ceremonies. We think having our own regalia will add to the history and tradition of our own school and encourage more faculty, administrators, and staff to participate in these precious and time honored ceremonies.
Q: How did you choose the colors? Why are they significant?
A: Many aspects of academic dress are dictated by a code that goes back to medieval traditions. Most schools' academic regalia design takes this code into consideration while still trying to maintain a distinctive overall design in order to create recognizable regalia, i.e. the University of Chicago's burgundy gown.
Our regalia design has incorporated our school color of black. Please note: All Ph.D. Doctor Hoods will receive Ph.D. Blue Velvet unless otherwise noted. All other hoods will receive velvet, which corresponds with the last wording of your degree. Example: Master of Science in Education will receive Education velvet unless otherwise noted.
Q: I am an alumnus/a of GSU and would like to purchase regalia for ceremonies at the institution where I am now a professor. How do I order it?
A: Please visit the website for Oak Hall Cap & Gown at www.oakhalli.com for more information.
Q: When and where can I place my order, get measured, etc.
A: GSU will host a Academic Regalia Fair, on April 2 and 3, at which time you can come in and order place your order for your gown, hood, cap/tam, etc. It takes approximately eight weeks for processing and delivery. Your custom regalia order will be delivered to the Special Events Office, which they will then deliver it to you.
Q: What if I am unable to attend this special event?
A: If you're unable to attend either day - online ordering will be available April 3 through April 12.

Doug Cross
Doug belongs to: Royal British Legion Seaman's Mess
Doug was born in South Shields in 1919. He joined the merchant navy at 15 with great ideas of adventure. During World War Two Bill was in the Arctic convoys and at the D-Day landings dropping off armaments.
Doug was interviewed by Kylea Little on 15 November 2005. The interview took place at South Shields Royal British Legion and lasted 55 minutes and 5 seconds.
The D-Day landings
"Billy Wold and I were two of the original crew that was up in Russia on the Empire Portia and we joined the ship and we had, go to London to load, prior to D-Day"
Billy Wold and I were two of the original crew that was up in Russia on the Empire Portia and we joined the ship and we had, go down to London to load, prior to D-Day. We loaded troops and the main hold had been altered to accommodate troops to hold about 500 where the rest of the ship was used for holding the equipment for those same troops and deck cargo as well including small landing barges and trucks and things like that.
So we took the troops over, over on D-Day off Arromanches beachhead, that was near Caen where the British troops were landing. And we took our troops ashore. The time we were there, there were German planes were straffing the beaches but the ships werent bothered a great deal- there was too much anti-aircraft defence. But we left there, discharged the troops, came back to London, took another lot of troops over with their equipment, put them on the beachheads and made a third trip, and we were coming back from the beachhead to come get another cargo from London when the ship got mined in the engine room.
We lost the five who were working down in the engine room. The firemen and, it was a coal burning ship, we lost the firemen and engineer.
At the time I was lying in my bunk. I had just finished having tea, I was off duty when it actually hit. I was bounced out of the bunk. The movement of the ship with the explosion, it bounced me out of the bunk. But of course everybody just lay on the bunks- they never slept without all their gear on- all kept fully clothed, ready to get out straight away. Well, I got bounced out of the bunk. I didnt hurt myself -I got straight up on deck- I was already dressed. I grabbed my haversack with essentials in and went up on deck to see what was happening.
Then we got orders to go in the boats. But it wasnt until, at the, at that moment when it did happen, we got onto the boat deck to lower the boats, and Billy Wold was in a different boat to me. he was on the other side.
We got the boats away, we were about an hour in the boats when the Destroyer picked us up. And they just cast the boats adrift- didnt bother taking them. And the Destroyer, as soon as we got aboard the Destroyer they issued us with a room, corned beef sandwiches, a bite to eat and then about an hour, roughly an hour and a half, they put us onto a landing craft which took us into Gosport.

text: Today we wanted to share with you Tiffany and Kyle's wedding album design! You may remember from their wedding blog post, they had a gorgeous destination wedding at the Iberostar Rose Hall Beach Hotel in Montego Bay, Jamaica. Tiffany got some amazing pictures from her Trash the Dress session as she rode a horse bareback through the water in her wedding dress. I absolutely love that most of our couple choose to get wedding albums. We live in a digital age where a majority of the pictures we see are through facebook, emails, and websites. Don't get me wrong, I love all those things (especially blogs), but there's something special about holding the pictures in your hands. I remember as a kid, sitting on the couch with a big photo album in my lap as my parents pointed out all the friends and family who were at their wedding. Now Tiffany and Kyle have a beautiful wedding album that will hold their memories for years to come. Maybe one day they will be showing a little kid of their own what an amazing time they had at their beach wedding in Jamaica!
