Compelling story of a German transvetite who manages to lead her/his "out" life during the Nazi period and the East German Communist years. The 2nd act is riveting, underscoring the difficulty in identifying truth and comprehending human motives.

Quotes & Highlights
Winner of the 2004 Tony Award for Best Play, the Pulitzer Prize for Drama and the Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Play.
Olney Theatre Center presents the highly acclaimed, Tony Award-winning play of I Am My Own Wife in its Mulitz-Gudelsky Theatre Lab. Based on a true story, and inspired by interviews conducted by Playwright Doug Wright over several years, I Am My Own Wife tells the fascinating tale of celebrated antiques collector, Charlotte von Mahlsdorf.
p. A German transvestite, Mahlsdorf successfully navigated the two most oppressive regimes of the past century, managing to survive the Nazi onslaught as well as the subsequent Communist regime, while openly gay and defiantly in drag. Historians have both hailed Mahlsdorf as a cultural hero and accused her of colluding with the Stasi.
The one-man tour de force stars Arnie Burton in over forty roles, mainly Mahlsdorf, but also her lover, father, aunt, Nazi officers, and TV personalities. Unique to this show is Wright's insertion of himself as a major character. The writer's story is told alongside the lead's as Wright works to uncover the truth behind Mahlsdorf's stories. "Doug starts out hoping to find in Charlotte a hero, a gay icon whom he can present to the world as someone to admire, even revere," says Director John Going. "What he finds in the end is a flawed human being who, though courageous and noble in many respects, is also weak and self-serving. She has the same kind of blind spots and self-preservation instincts that plague us all – in other words, she is a real person."
Led by Olney's Associate Artistic Director John Going (The Constant Wife, The Heiress, and Morning's at Seven), this powerhouse production is the second partnership between actor, director, and designers. The talented group first explored I Am My Own Wife at The Repertory Theatre of St. Louis in 2006. This initial journey won critical acclaim and top honors at the Kevin Kline Awards (St. Louis' version of DC's Helen Hayes Awards) for Best Director, Best Actor, and Best Play. Going, Burton, and the three designers will reunite to further discover this piece in Olney's intimate black box theater. "We are proud to bring these artists together again," says Artistic Director Jim Petosa.
Making his Olney debut, Burton comes to the area direct from the critically acclaimed run of Merchant of Venice/Jew of Malta in New York and from The Royal Shakespeare Company in England. He made his Broadway debut in Amadeus. Burton's regional appearances include the lead in All in the Timing by David Ives (Los Angeles premiere) at the Geffen Playhouse, and Lives of the Saints by David Ives (world premiere) at The Philadelphia Theatre Company. Burton's television credits include appearances on Frasier; Hope & Faith; Caroline in the City; Law & Order; Sister, Sister; and Six Degrees. His film appearances are Igby Goes Down and Game 6.
Playing the duel role of Scenic and Costume Designer, Marie Anne Chiment has designed sets and costumes for hundreds of theater, opera, and dance productions across the nation. This past fall, she designed over 100 costumes for the world premiere musical, Ace at the Repertory Theatre of St. Louis (2007 Kevin Kline Award). Lighting Chiment's designs will be Mitchell Dana. Dana has designed over 575 productions including The Suicide, Monday after the Miracle, Mass Appeal, Freedom of the City, and Once in a Lifetime. Creating the sounds of pre-Berlin Germany will be Sound Designer Joe Payne, who is in his seventh season as resident sound designer for Pioneer Theatre Company and teaching sound design for the Department of Theatre at the University of Utah.
Considered one of the most honored plays in recent years, I Am My Own Wife has garnered many awards including a Tony Award for Best Play, the Drama Desk Award, a GLAAD Media Award, an Outer Critics Circle Award, a Drama League Award, a Lucille Lortel Award, and Playwright Doug Wright received the Pulitzer Prize for Drama.

Dear Editor:
You correctly reported (April 4, "Queens Galley Food pantry and soup kitchen needs new home") that our landlords had chosen not to renew our lease and that we were looking for alternative space.
An unintended consequence of the article has been that many people have assumed that we have closed our doors. As a result of this misunderstanding, donations to and volunteering at the Galley have both decreased significantly.
The fact is that we're still at our Washington Avenue site serving breakfast, lunch and dinner 365 days of the year to anyone in need of a meal. We're remaining on a month-to-month basis while we simultaneously negotiate with our landlords to purchase the building and search for alternative space in the event that those negotiations fail.
Please let your readers know that the Queens Galley is still here, and still in need of both the donations and volunteers that make what we do on a daily basis possible.
The writer is treasurer of The Queens Galley.

Are we spoiling our newborn?
My almost-1-month-old hates to be left alone. After being breastfed, he goes to sleep -- but as soon as we put him down in his crib or bassinet, he starts to cry and won't stop until one of us is holding him or sitting right next to him. Is my son spoiled?

well i think that if your child is less then a month he isnt spoiled remember he was in your womb for a long time and he might need your attention and warmth. but my daughter is 5 month and always wants to be around me she doesnt wasnt to be alone, and at times i go crazy. so letting them cry is okay but then you tend to feel bad and just give in lol. but my mom tells me that im going to suffer when i go to work or school, because im young and i want to finish my education and give my daughter a better life. so i would advice you to just let him cry or get a bouncing chair that vibates they love it. so just give them a pacifier it sometimes helps and dont be scared to ask your partner for help or anyone sometimes someones help is good so luck and taking advice sometimes helpposted 11/26/2008 by a BabyCenter Member
Hold him, hug him, kiss him, cuddle him to your heart's desire. Thats how babies develope trust, love, and form bonds. Plus, they are so dog gone cute, how can you not?posted 11/18/2008 by jeanene_chambers
I have the same problem, and while I love to hold my 3 week old son it is terribly frustrating having him glued to me at all times while I am home alone with him all day and not get a single thing done. It is also hurting my relationship with my boyfreind because it is realy hard for him to understand how he can work two jobs full time and I cant stay on top of the things I used to take care of with no problems. So when we do see eachother we are usualy both stressed out and getting on eachother's nerves. and when we are getting along we dont get any time alone togather because our son wans to be in my arms at all times. I know he's not spoiled and that its normal, but I need to know how to get him to stop being so clingy. right now im having to hold him 24-7 and I cant keep going like this.posted 06/18/2008 by equifreakyfrench
My DS is 5 weeks old and loves to be held and likes to feel the movement of me walking around with him. My DH and his father tick me off because they keep making annoying comments about me picking him up when he cies. This morning my DH had the nerve to say "Its your fault that he keeps crying like this because you keep picking him up" I told him to stop saying that to me because his comments are annoying and I didn't bother to explain to him that I cannot spoil a newborn. We have had that conversation before and he sill thinks that I am wrong for picking him up, so I just try to ignore my DH when he says that. When my DS was two weeks old my father in law came over to visit and said "boy did you do a good job spoiling him, your always picking him up". I was mortified that he would say such a thing. What the heck did he expect me to do when my 2 week old started crying?? Some people need to get educated and keep their stupid comments to themselves. I love holding my DS.posted 05/01/2008 by Panya81
he just needs that security of being held. They have these hands that are like supporting pillows, yet shaped like big hands, that they place against preemies in the hospital, to give them that feeling of being held. You can buy them online, but they are pricey. No baby is spoiled at 1 month. He just may be a little needier than some, that's allposted 03/20/2008 by akrispy
My daughter is 3 months and I held her all day every day until she started daycare. She didn't like to be put down for long and would wake up as soon as we put her down. However, she did sleep next to me after I started breastfeeding her in our bed. When I did, she started sleeping through the night from 930pm and wakes up at 12am and 6am to eat. She'll play on the floor mat, swing in her swing (she only likes it fast), and take some naps in her co-sleeper. We take turns holding her in the evenings when we get home. So I can't always get things done, so what, she's only this young for a short amount of time and then she won't want to be held or cuddle. I'm taking advantage of this time. If I really need to take care of things I ask for help, I put her down if she's been sleeping for at least 10 mins, or I put her in the Bjorn and wear her around while I get things done. Like others, sometimes she will cry in her sleep for a couple seconds. If she doesn't seem awake I leave her alone.posted 03/14/2008 by Elli.Keen
I had a hard time at first putting my 3 month old down after she fell asleep. I figured out that she liked to sleep sitting in a reclined rather than flat position and she likes the feeling of closeness. She sleeps in her car seat. I buckle the straps and fold up a blanket and set it on top of the straps where she can't pull the blanket on top of her face. She sleeps for 6 hours or more per night and she's been doing that since she was 2 months old and only wakes up if she is hungry. For the past two weeks, she has been getting fussy a lot at night and kicking her legs alot and if I notice that she hasn't had a bowel movement yet on that day, then I will help her with a glycerin suppository...doctor recommended. When babies are breastfed, they sometimes are unable to push the waste out on their own and a suppository gives them a little assistance. It works like a charm. She has a bowel movement, a warm bath, a cuddle and a feeding and she's down for the count. Good Luck.posted 03/10/2008 by firekat4christ
I have 3 weeks old baby girl and i put her to bed between 7-730 after she eats and clean ,she goes to sleep for about 3 hours then wake up when its time to eat but 1 i put her back to her bassinet she began to cry she doesn't stop till i pick her up, i also put her on the swaddle and she cried and tried to come out u think she doesn't like to be swaddle.posted 03/02/2008 by kekoalanie
i dont think you can spoil a newborn. they are only this little once, so take dvantage of the time you have. i have the same problem with my baby waking up the second i put him in his crib and sometimes i get so extremely frusterated....but it makes it all worth while when he just looks up at me and gives me a little smile. :)posted 02/26/2008 by MeliNdASuE22
Everything I've read indicates that you can't spoil a baby that young. They don't have the ability to soothe themselves, so we need to be especially attentive to their needs during the early months. Both of my daughters (now 22 months and 4 months) didn't want to be put down for the first three months, but then they started being more alert and interested in their surroundings around this time. As a result, they began to enjoy sitting and watching things as they learned about the world around them. My younger daughter can now sit for half an hour or more in a bouncy seat, either grabbing at the toys dangling from it or watching her big sister. She can also put herself to sleep without crying. I started encouraging her to do this at about 3.5 months, putting her in the crib when her eyes started to droop, patting her head, and offering the pacifier. This has helped her develop self-soothing skills; most 3-month old babies are ready for this, but 1-month olds are definitely not!posted 01/02/2008 by ssuagain

Cradle of Liberty
Jane has her hands full with On Point this week, so David will be hosting the show on Friday. What to do for Independence Day? Well, Boeri is planning one of his grand opuses. He thinks all the recent hubbub over "hack holidays" like Evacuation Day has missed the point; commemorating our history is what matters, not whether the RMV stays open when we do so.
It's amazing how many moments that were integral to the formation and development of the whole country happened in our little city. This week, David is stepping off–WAY off–the Freedom Trail to find the true story of liberty's birth and rearing in Boston. It's a story that's as much about absurd utopian fantasies and the origins of Black Power as it is about mis-named battles waged by old, white generals.
If you have your own favorite Boston historical site or story that you think may be in danger of omission, leave us a comment below.
If you're new to Boston or slept through social studies, this show is going to be a great primer. Listen from your lawn chair with a lemonade in one hand and a sparkler in the other. (Hopefully, you won't need a third hand for an umbrella.)
Host Meghna Chakrabarti introduces us to newsmakers, big thinkers and artists and brings us stories of relevance to Bostonians here and around the region. Live every weekday at 3 p.m. and 10 p.m.

Xerox DocuMate 3115 - ADF
This review is from: XEROX DocuMate 3115 XDM3115M–WU 24 bit 600 dpi Duplex Document Scanner
Pros: Small size doesn't take up much room. Scan quality good. Scans in B/W & Color.
Cons: I unpacked the box and got it set up easily. It interfaced with my computer nicely. The ADF does not recognize that there are documents in it. I keep getting an error code "There are no documents in ADF", when actually there are. I tried everything, but cannot get the ADF to recognize that there is a document waiting to be scanned. Front loading access works fine.

Working very well
This review is from: XEROX DocuMate 3115 XDM3115M–WU 24 bit 600 dpi Duplex Document Scanner
Pros: Currently I have HP 3970 for graphics scanning and Dell 1600n for document scanning (with ADF) - one side at a time. Saw good price on Xerox Documate 3115, even with some negative, want to give it a try. Try a number of single-sided documents through ADF, about 15 pages. Feed through well. Sometimes, forgot that you have to feed facedown. Try a number of double-sided pages, worked well also. (See some cons). The front-feeding work more straight than the ADF. (See some cons). I must have run through over 1,000 scans already in just a few days (I am trying to catch up with delays).
Cons: It took a while to set up the one-touch buttons to scan (so far, only set up the option 1 to go to PaperPort). Seems have to preset the destination folder. So I don't use much as I jump among 50 or so folders all the times. Front-feed: if you have pre-folded papers, sometimes, on the reverse feed (the paper goes in forward feed and scanning, then the paper go back reversely to return the paper to you), the two upper pins in the back caught the creases and ripped the paper; got three or four papers ripped a part because of this. On the ADF feeding, if the paper is thin, it may not feed straight down; so skewing a little; I sometimes try the Xerox front-feeding; sometimes; just use the flat-bed on the Dell 1600n to scan.
Other Thoughts: Come with Kodak VRS (not sure what that is), NewSoft Presto BizCard 5, ScanSoft OmniPage 15, ScanSoft PaperPort 11, One-Touch 4.0 (on the scanner, there is a dial to select pre-set 1 through 6, 1 - Scan, 2 - eMail, 3 - Copy, 4 - OCR, 5 - Photo, 6 - Archive). I only tried PaperPort and Pre-set Scan, as I need to archive my documents and then shred them away. Have not try other options yet.

Mac support is a fraud
This review is from: XEROX DocuMate 3115 XDM3115M–WU 24 bit 600 dpi Duplex Document Scanner
Pros: None.
Cons: This item is advertised to have Mac support (even says so on the box), but does not ship with Mac drivers. Instead, one must register the scanner's serial number (which was nowhere to be found on the scanner or otherwise), then give up all sorts of personal information to get an activation code for a piece of bloatware that's incompatible with every tool I intended to use it with. A call to Xerox tech support (and a 30 minute wait) verified that there is NO TWAIN driver for the Mac. Mac support is all but false advertising.
Other Thoughts: If you intend to use this with a Mac, look elsewhere.

Ram Gopal Varma's tongue-in-cheek comments never fail to amuse. His latest target is director Rohit Shetty and his blockbuster hit "Chennai Express".
RGV has been posting his feedback on "Chennai Express" since Aug 23, and claims he has watched the Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone-starrer as many as five times - a good contribution perhaps to the over Rs.200 crore that the movie has minted at the box office since its release Aug 9.
"Congrats to Rohit Shetty for dumping 'Mughal E Azam', 'Sholay', DDLJ ('Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge'), '3 Idiots', etc by the tracks and speeding Indian cinema ahead on 'Chennai Express'. Like the proof of the pudding is in eating, the greatness of cinema is in its success and by that yardstick, 'Chennai Express' is the greatest film," Varma posted on Twitter.
A comic action entertainer, the film is about a north Indian boy who falls in love with a south Indian girl, who is the daughter of a don. It was panned by critics, but loved by viewers.
On Aug 24, Varma tweeted: "Just walked out of fifth viewing of 'Chennai Express' and I want to touch Rohit Shetty's feet. Not since sex did I have more fun than 'Chennai Express'. If some of you didn't like 'Chennai...' in first viewing, my advice is to watch it four to five times, not because it's slow poison, but because it's slow moving fast poison.
"Most boring film I saw is 'Citizen Kane' (Orson Welles' first movie) and most entertaining is 'Chennai Express'. (American actor-director) Orson Welles should come back from dead to touch Rohit Shetty's feet."
"Citizen Kane", released in 1941, was in the drama genre and it was based on the life of a newspaper publisher, essayed by Welles.
Comparing it with "Chennai Express" seems odd, doesn't it?
RGV explains: "Comparisons might seem odd because of genre difference, but as common man I felt the same high in excitement in 'Chennai Express' as in what I felt in 'Titanic' and 'Avatar'."
Varma's own filmography comprises films like "Rangeela", "Satya", "Mast", "Shool", "Sarkar", "Phoonk" and "Department".

Growth in Christ is a progress in life whereby we are made more and more like our Lord in righteousness, truth, and practice. Paul testified to the Church: "I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me" (Gal. 2:20). Paul's witness resounds in every true Christian's life: "For to me to live is Christ" (Phil. 1:21). For Christ "is the principle of my life; from his fullness I live, as the vine branch lives from the root" (Thomas Watson). This is the meaning of 'sanctification'—to be enabled by the Spirit through the Word of God to live by faith, to know "the work of God's free grace, whereby we are renewed in the whole man after the image of God, and are enabled more and more to die unto sin, and live unto righteousness" (S.C. 35, What is sanctification?).
Christ prayed to his Father for his disciples, "Sanctify them, through Thy truth: Thy word is truth" (John 17:17). This is not a new work of God. For his Word has been his people's hope and strength in every generation; from birth to death the Spirit has revealed his truth. The Psalmist firmly testified: "Thou shalt guide me with thy counsel, and afterward receive me to glory" (Ps. 73:24). Paul encourages the Thessalonica saints that as they have received from his ministry "how ye ought to walk and to please God, so ye would abound more and more" (4:1). The Christian is to continually "grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ" (2 Peter 3:18). This is the Christian who has been redeemed by the "precious blood of Christ;" being born anew "by the word of God, which liveth and abideth forever" (1 Peter 1: 19, 23). Therefore, the "God of peace…Make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is well pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen" (Heb. 13:20–21).
We are to see ourselves as a vessel which houses a precious soul: "That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honor." This vessel should be very precious to each of us who bear the name of Christ, for "the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them who are his;" therefore, belonging to God our Father as a valued vessel: Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity" (1 Tim. 2:19). Thus the sanctification of his 'vessels' is part of our being disciples of Christ: "But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honor, and some to dishonor. If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honor, sanctified and meet for the master's use, and prepared unto every good work" (1 Tim. 2:20–21).
Paul understands sanctification as an active or decisive walk with Christ, exhorting the Christian as "how ye ought to walk and to please God, so ye would abound more and more"—"For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication: that every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honor." The saints are not to live "in the lust of concupiscence," lusting for what is forbidden, "even as the Gentiles which know not God." We are not to live as the world around us, whose darkness we once walked: "For a time past of our life may suffice us to have wrought the will of the Gentiles, when we walked in lasciviousness, lusts, excess of wine, revellings, banqueting, and abominable idolatries" (1 Peter 4:3).
Let our actions reveal the love of Christ, vessels that honor our Savior; as Paul encourages the saints: "I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service" (Rom. 12:1).
Righteous conduct is revealed in the Ten Commandments of our Creator and God; being so summed up in these words of our Savior: "Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself" (Matt. 22:37–39). It is not hard to see how the wicked defraud one another, even ourselves. We live amongst evil knowing "that the Lord is the avenger of all such." God is the Judge of the wicked. "He therefore that despiseth, despiseth not man, but God, who hath also given unto us his Holy Spirit." M. Henry wrote: "The contempt therefore of God's law and gospel is the contempt of God himself."
However, we live not by the will of man, but by the will of God who has given us the comfort and presence of the Spirit. "For God hath not called us unto uncleanness, but unto holiness." Therefore, "whatsoever ye do in word and deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him" (Col. 3:17). The life of a Christian, which glorifies Chris, is that of one whose conduct reveals the love of God: "According as (the Lord's) divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue: whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust. And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge; and to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness; and to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity" (2 Peter 1:3–7).
Paul further teaches us about brotherly love: "But as touching brotherly love ye need not that I write unto you; for ye yourselves are taught of God to love one another." It is God—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—who teaches us, trains us, and encourages us, through his Word and presence, to love one another. In the words of Calvin, "that their hearts were framed for love; so that it appears that the Holy Spirit inwardly dictates efficaciously what is to be done, so that there is no need to give injunctions in writing." The Christian is one in whose love toward the brethren is revealed the divine love of God in Christ Jesus. "Whoever does that which is good is taught of God to do it, and God must have the glory. All who are savingly taught of God are taught this lesson, to love one another. This is the livery of Christ's family" (M. Henry).
The love of a Christian, taught to him by divine purpose, cannot be hid under a basket. It must and will be the light that shines in every nation. "And indeed ye do it toward all the brethren which are in all Macedonia: but we beseech you, brethren, that ye increase more and more." We ought not to be slothful in our study of God's Word and the practice thereof. For the encouragement of God's love in Christ must be seen by others, especially those in persecution. Our slothfulness in practicing true brotherly love does not glorify God, and surely does reveal our forgetfulness of those who are fighting the good fight of faith in this nation and others.
Our faith and works must increase more and more as we study in quietness of spirit, going about our own work, not intruding ourselves on others, that we "may walk honestly toward them that are without, and that ye may have lack of nothing." Even in our daily walk we must represent the Gospel of Christ (not only in the preaching and hearing thereof), not being busybodies; "Now them that are such we command and exhort by our Lord Jesus Christ, that with quietness they work, and eat their own bread. But ye brethren, be not weary in well doing" (2 Thess. 3:12–13).

Is U.S. policy putting child immigrants in danger?
WASHINGTON—During a visit this summer to a Department of Homeland Security facility in McAllen, Texas, Genevieve Wood saw 300 immigrants packed inside and 500 more outside. Red tape sectioned off those with skin infections or lice. A worker told Wood, "If we were running a jail, we would be shut down."
Wood, a Heritage Foundation expert, said U.S. policy is contributing to the immigrants' misery. "The problem is that we're allowing people to stay that shouldn't be allowed to," she said. "They're in facilities that were not made to house people."
This week, a series of hearings in the House of Representatives has examined the sudden increase in illegal immigrants, particularly unaccompanied children, causing what many are calling a humanitarian crisis for the United States. Though some policymakers in Washington point to the violence and poverty in the immigrants' home countries as the children's primary motive for coming to America, others, including Wood, place responsibility on the Obama administration and what she calls its lax enforcement of immigration policy.
Last fiscal year, U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents apprehended about 26,000 unaccompanied children at the southwest border. This year, that number has jumped to 52,000 as of mid-June. About three quarters of the children come from Guatemala, El Salvador, and Honduras.
Rep. Bob Goodlatte, R-Va., chair of the House Judiciary Committee, cited a report in which many children said they came to America to take advantage of the "free pass" (known as "permisos") they believe U.S. officials are issuing. Goodlatte said the message being sent by the administration's "non-enforcement of our immigration laws" is tragic because it encourages children to undertake an extremely dangerous journey.
Some lawmakers insist the wave of children crossing the border results from increasing levels of violence and gang activity in the countries of Honduras, El Salvador, and Guatemala. For the past four years, Honduras has had the highest rate of murder in the world. Other lawmakers question whether this is enough to create a doubling of child immigrants in one year.
Wood believes the Obama administration also is sending the message of amnesty across the border. She pointed to Obama's 2012 Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, the decision to delay deportation for some undocumented immigrants who came to the United States as children. Even though it does not apply to children who are crossing the border today, Wood said it contributes to the impression that those who enter illegally will be allowed to stay.
In a hearing with House lawmakers, Jeh Johnson, Secretary of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, said smugglers are creating misinformation campaigns so parents will pay them to bring children to America.
A 2008 law aimed at protecting children requires the Border Patrol to transfer unaccompanied children who are not from Mexico to the Department of Health and Human Services. The agency places the majority of children with family members or friends in the United States, some of whom, according to Brandon Judd from the National Border Patrol Council, might be illegal immigrants themselves. The children still face deportation, but in a backlogged system, that could take years, assuming they show up to court at all. "We have to be honest with ourselves," Judd said. "Most … simply fail to appear and blend into the community."
Rep. Peter King, R-N.Y., noted that for families in Guatemala or El Salvador, the system's realities amount to a free pass: "It's a much better life for them than they're getting right now in Central America.
Compassion compels people to care for the children who have risked the dangerous journey to seek refuge in the United States, even though it might encourage more to come. "Jesus Himself was a child migrant fleeing violence," Mark Seitz, bishop of the Diocese of El Paso, Texas, reminded lawmakers. At the same time, he encouraged the United States to use compassion in the immigrants' native countries so they would have no need to leave.
The immigrant children are part of a complex political and humanitarian problem, and as Seitz said before the House Judiciary Committee on Wednesday, "A good deal of prayer would be a good idea."

The Big Bang Theory Stars Could Get $1 Million Per Episode in Season 8
The stars of The Big Bang Theory could get The Big Buck come Season 8.
The stars of The Big Bang Theory could get The Big Buck come Season 8.
The "Original Five" of the hit CBS sitcom — Jim Parsons, Kaley Cuoco-Sweeting, Johnny Galecki, Simon Helberg, and Kunal Nayyar — are currently in the midst of contract negotiations with Warner Brothers, and they'll likely get huge pay bumps when all is said and done.
Jim, Kaley, and Johnny might even end up with salaries around $1 million per episode, Deadline reports.
A source tells E! Online those three are going after "Friends money," likely referring to the $1 million that the six Friends stars earned per episode during the last season of that comedy.
"It will be fine," Bing Bang creator Chuck Lorre tells the site. "Warner Brothers has done this before."
Furthermore, Chuck thinks the cast should get what they want. "Everybody should be very successful and happy and rich. They earned it. It's a great cast. Great cast. It's their time."
But it seems like the pressure is on for Warner Brothers as they near the Season 8 production start date of July 30 — especially since we get the feeling the actors hold all the cards. Because their contracts expired at the end of Season 7, they're under no obligation to show up to work.
Sounds like these sitcom superstars will be laughing their way to the bank!

The Food and Drug Administration on Thursday proposed measures that would all but eliminate trans fats from foods.
The artificial fat is blamed for contributing to heart attacks, and medical experts say even as little as 2 or 3 grams of trans fat per day can increase the risk.
Many Americans may unknowingly consume trans fats because current requirements do not require labels to list any amounts below 0.5 gram per serving, meaning hidden amounts can add up fast for people who regularly eat packaged or fast foods, including doughnuts and frozen pizzas.
"It's a fat that tastes really good but is the worst of all fats for your health," said Dr. Suzanne Sorof, interventional cardiologist at Cardio Vascular Associates of Mesa. "It lacquers up your vessels and causes heart attacks and strokes. It makes sense to get rid of it completely, especially since so many people have no idea they are eating trans fats."
Under the proposal, the agency would declare that partially hydrogenated oils — the source of trans fats — were no longer "generally recognized as safe," a legal category that permits the use of salt and caffeine, for example.
Some trans fats occur naturally in some meat and dairy products, and the FDA proposal applies only to those that are added to foods.
Food manufacturers intent on defeating the proposal would have to prove that partially hydrogenated oils, a cheap fat that extends the shelf life and flavor of foods, are safe to eat.
Their arguments collide with a wealth of scientific evidence that paints trans fats as dangerous to heart health.
The Institute of Medicine has concluded that there is no safe level for consumption of artificial trans fats.
In announcing the proposal, FDA Commissioner Margaret Hamburg projected the ban could prevent 20,000 heart attacks and 7,000 deaths tied to heart disease each year.
Nearly one in three deaths in the U.S. each year is caused by heart disease and stroke, according to the American Heart Association.
The proposal dovetails with a decadelong public health battle against trans fats, found primarily in commercial baked goods such as crackers, cookies and cakes, and many fried foods such as french fries, microwave popcorn, frozen pizzas, margarine and coffee creamers.
It also follows the voluntary decrease in trans fat that has occurred since manufacturers were required in 2006 to list trans fat content of more than 0.5 gram per serving on food labels.
Since the labeling mandate, trans fat intake declined from 4.6 grams per day in 2003 to about 1 gram per day in 2012.
A report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found that blood levels of trans fatty acids among White adults in the U.S. fell by 58 percent from 2000 to 2009.
McDonald's, for example, stopped cooking french fries in trans fat more than a decade ago. The company says all its fried menu items are free of trans fat.
In 2007, New York City accelerated the trend by banning partially hydrogenated vegetable oils and spreads in restaurants.
Steve Chucri, president of the Arizona Restaurant Association, said a ban would not play havoc on the industry because it falls at the tail, not front end, of the long-running trans fat revolution.
"The restaurant industry expected this, and although trans fats have not completely been removed, they are used only marginally," said Chucri, who estimates that up to 97 percent of all Arizona restaurants cook without trans fats.
"This is not a fad. Everyone seems to be in agreement that trans fats are bad for your health."
Consuming trans fats raises low-density lipoprotein (LDL), or "bad" cholesterol, increasing the risk of coronary heart disease, the leading killer of men and women.
If trans fats were banned, health educators could zoom in on other important topics, including weight control and healthy fats, said Melinda Johnson, spokeswoman for the National Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics and an Arizona State University nutrition lecturer.
The FDA proposal remains open for public comment for 60 days.
Following a review of the submitted comments, the agency will make a final decision.
If trans fats are banned, the FDA will provide time for food makers to implement changes.

California Employment Law
Have California Employment Law Questions? Ask a Lawyer.
Where does degrading an employee fall under? I was humiliated by my supervisor who scolded me in front of hospital staff and my some of my female peers are in a way bullying me by ignoring me as a group and outcasting or excluding me. I really could care less but when nurses are reporting to me the negative comments these female physicians are saying about me, it only adds to the stress I already have from my excessive workload. I was pressured (bullied) by a peer to take an unstable patient under my care, a patient whom I have never met (therefore no doctor to patient relationship legally) which I did not feel comfortable to take so I asked written directives from our chief. My chief is also unfair in his spread of workload where some doctors are just coasting at work taking care of only 12 patients in one unit and I am given two units in different buildings, including coverage of other units for other doctors who are off or are on leave. It is quite a long walk between my 2 buildings so it is exhausting to be walking back and forth when I get paged from one building to another and I can not get my notes or review my labs or other tests on time. I feel this is not safe for the patients but if I complain,I feel my boss and peers would resent me even more.

Naturally, as ladies who work, we were curious to see which of these 12 Grooming Rules All Working Women Should Know were relevant to us. We were surprised to find, however, that some of them were just plain old life rules–"go easy on the perfume" and "moisturize! moisturize! moisturize!"–and some of them were… not really true? Especially the ones presented as the most set in stone–"Mascara is a must" and, on the subject of leg shaving: "If you wear something that reveals your legs, then you must shave your legs."
Certainly, as slovenly bloggers, we Gloss editors can get away with a lot–but we figured we'd come up with a more reasonable/less gendered list ourselves. More

I have not received his JW9JKA QSL card either. In 2102 when he was on Jan Mayen I waited till he returned to his home QTH to send my card. I received his Jan Mayen QSL card straight away back then. As with that experience, I waited this time for him to return home too. Unfortunately the JW9JKA QSL card has not been as forthcoming.
I have sent him twice QSL CARD.
The first one before he left BEAR Island and the second after
The date he published for the end of his staying on BEAR Island.
Until now I did not have any reply.
Also the email address on his QRZ.COM page always returning error.

I would like to express my appreciation for each of you who voted in the recent Bellevue City Council election. It was a close race with a difference of less than .67% in spite of being outspent almost 3-1. Whether you were one of the 14,434 who supported my candidacy for Council Position 4, or you were one of the 14,627 who voted for my opponent, your participation was vitally important in guiding the future direction of our city.
The fact that only 46 percent of registered voters actually voted in the race is disappointing for many reasons. Even more amazing is that of the 33,000 who voted a ballot in Bellevue over 4,000 of them did not vote in our race. Local elections set the tone for government decisions which affect all residents directly and personally. Local elections foster healthy debate over important local issues, helping voters to understand different aspects and nuances of issues that affect their homes, families, jobs and neighborhoods.
I feel good about the issues and concerns that we raised during my candidacy – particularly the need for open and ethical decision-making based on community interest and the common good. I trust that my opponent will hear and respect the message carried by nearly 50 percent of the voters, and I wish him the utmost success in his role as a Bellevue City Council Member. I can promise my continued involvement in support of the City and community, and I encourage other Bellevue residents to join me in getting involved as voters and participants in their local government. Every person, every vote, and every good idea make a difference!
Have a safe and happy holiday season,

FRESNO, Calif. - Despite balls jumping quickly off the bat in the night air, the No. 23 Fresno State softball team out slugged UC Davis in the night cap as the Bulldogs prevailed, 11-7.
With 18 runs scored on 25 hits between the two schools, Fresno State rallied back from a 5-2 deficit after two full innings of play and went on to post nine runs in the final five innings to improve to 4-0 at home.
Fresno State (6-5) utilized three pitchers as senior right-handed pitcher Laura Ferreira picked up a no-decision after throwing the first 1.1 innings and allowing four runs on five hits with two walks.
Freshman right hander Katie Nelson pitched middle relief and notched her first collegiate win. She threw 3.2 innings and allowed three runs on six hits and had two strikeouts.
Freshman right-handed hurler Robin Mackin tossed the final 2.0 innings and walked one while fanning five.
UC Davis (4-7) used two pitchers as starter Stacey Benzing took the loss and fell to 0-2 on the season. She pitched 2.1 innings and allowed 10 runs on nine hits while yielding three walks and striking out one. Lindsay Tognetti tossed the final 3.2 innings and gave up one run on five hits while walking four and striking out five.
On the evening, Fresno State posted season-high marks in hits (14), runs (11) and RBI (10) as four Bulldogs notched multiple hit games.
Freshman third baseman Haley Perkins went 3-5 with two runs, a triple and three RBI. Junior catcher Nichole Willis went 2-5 with two runs, a double and one RBI. Sophomore first baseman Kristin Sylvester had the other three-hit game for the 'Dogs as she went 3-4 with a run and two RBI. Finally, sophomore second baseman Jenna Cervantez went 2-3 with a run and a RBI.
Fresno State busted the game open in the third after trailing 5-2. An eight-run inning showcased two doubles and a triple as the Bulldogs scored their eight runs on seven hits.

Above you can see some of my DNA matches from my recent results. The only 2nd cousin match that shows is a definite match. I know that because I've been in touch with the person who administered that test for years now. That actually hits right on the head. If my guess is right (I have to email to be sure), the person she administered the test to was my Grandpa Moore's first cousin. In that case it would be my first cousin, twice removed. If it's the second person I suspect, it would be my 2nd cousin, once removed. So either way, I'd say the DNA test pegged that one. The interesting part was seeing the differences in the DNA results between the two of us. I think DNA is just fascinating anyway. It's becoming a little bit of an addiction for me. Sometimes I find myself saying, "Why didn't I become a geneticist?" Umm. Yeah. Haha!
You'll see that I starred the match I already knew and after looking at all the 4th cousin matches, I starred only one more. I starred that one because after looking at that tree, I saw both Quesinberry and Slusher, which I became VERY familiar with in my Family File Cleanup. I haven't found the link up yet, but again hopefully after an email, I'll be able to.
I'm really wishing now I had saved enough money to do my parents in addition to me. If I had their results the out of left field matches would be a bit easier to narrow down. Most of the matches also seem to share the Virginia, Ohio, Kentucky areas of trees. Since my father's family were mainly in New Jersey and New York straight off the boat, I've got to assume that these matches are on my mother's side. Unless of course, there are siblings from my immigrant ancestors who went their own ways. I'm still looking for entry points/time for some of them, William Moore and George Thorward/Yohn being the biggest headaches.
Overall, I think this was a fun and exciting first foray into genetic genealogy. I'll try and follow up on those leads and see where that takes me. In the meantime, we've started saving money for even more DNA tests, because now we're addicted!

Just had an on-phone interview with a company in Alpharetta. They seemed to like me.
So now I want to know more about Alpharetta. I'm mostly a utility rider but do the occasional recreational ride.
How are the bike stores?
Is there a local advocacy group?
What is the terrain like?
How are conditions for commuting and utility riding.
What is the local cycling community like?
How are the local trails?
Please just describe them, don't try to frighten me. I grew up in Florida and now ride in Arkansas, I know all about 3" bike lanes at the edge of the road and 20% grades on the commute.

Players to Watch
There isn't a lot of good to report here, given the way the team's played over the last week. But I'll try to find some rays of sunshine.
INF Luis Valbuena – Sweet Luis has earned the Jeremy Sowers Memorial I-71 Award for this season, having moved back and forth more times than I can to count. He took this week's trip back to Columbus in stride, getting a hit in all six games in which he played. He went 9-for-24 (.375) overall. For the year, he's now sitting at .304 in 107 games played in Columbus. More on Sweet Luis below…
3B Jared Goedart – This guy looks like a completely different player than we saw through most of the season. He continued to tear it up this week, going 10-for-28 (.357) with two home runs and nine RBI. I don't know what else to say; I'm running out of superlatives for Goedart's resurgence of late. In 36 games before the IL All Star Break, he hit .198 with a .612 OPS. .198! Since the break, however, in 37 games Goedart has done nothing but hit, with a .346 clip and a 1.057 OPS. I mean, holy crap. I know the All Star Break gives guys a chance to rest and catch their breath, but seriously? This kind of turn-around is uncanny. His season average is now up to .272, or a 74-point climb since the break.
OF Tim Fedroff – Here is another guy getting a chance to play more now that many players are up in Cleveland, and he's starting to take more and more advantage of that chance. Fedroff had a great week, going 10-for-28 himself (.357). He's been hitting at the top of the order, so we're not seeing a ton of run production, but he's getting on base at a .370 clip over his last 10 games, and has scored four runs in his last eight. Hitting .278 for the season through 58 games in Columbus, he's been very good in August, hitting .306 for the month with a .389 OBP.
1B Beau Mills – Mills continued his cool-off, with just four hits in 25 at-bats this week (.160). In 31 games for Columbus now, Mills is mired with a .231 average and isn't hitting for much power with a .404 slugging percentage.
RHP Paolo Espino – Leading off for the hurlers is Espino, who stepped into the rotation and delivered this week. He made two starts, spanning 11.0 innings. He allowed just three hits, didn't walk a batter, surrendered no runs, and struck out 13 on his way to earning IL Pitcher of the Week honors. In 14 appearances in Columbus covering 31.1 innings, he's allowed just one home run and has a 3.45 ERA, and as a starter (four starts) has limited opposing hitters to a paltry .128 batting average.
RHP Josh Judy – It was a crazy week for Judy, who was sent back to Columbus and then promptly pitched in four games. He worked 4.0 innings, earned two saves, and didn't allow a run. He only surrendered one hit, walked just two, and fanned three. For the season, Judy has been a different pitcher on the road than at home. At Huntington Park, opposing hitters have batted .261 in 28.1 innings while scoring 15 times. On the road, they're hitting just .195 off of him in 22.2 innings, and have scored only eight runs.
RHP Chen-Chang Lee – He worked twice this week, and was solid along the way. He tallied 2.o innings, didn't allow a hit, walked just one, and struck out three. Between Akron and Columbus this season, Lee has a combined 97 strikeouts against just 22 walks in 68.1 innings. That's a beautiful thing.
RHP Zach McAllister – McAllister had a solid but not great start this week, working 6.0 innings in his return to Columbus. He allowed three runs, but one was unearned. He allowed four hits and three walks, but also fanned nine hitters. McAllister's stat for the year so far is that when runners get on base, he buckles down. With runners on, his batting average against drops from .284 to .217. You might chalk that up to sample size (i.e., far fewer situations with runners on, hence the lower number), but it's not exactly that simple. He's worked 77.0 innings with the bases empty against 70.2 with runners on, and surrendered 40 fewer hits with runners on than with the sacks empty. That's 40 more hits in just 6.1 innings worth of time.
LHP Nick Hagadone – It was a bit of a rocky week for Hagadone, who worked three times. He was solid in one appearance (as you might have read here on WFNY) last Tuesday, but he blew a save on Thursday by allowing two unearned runs in the bottom of the ninth. He also worked two innings on Sunday and surrendered two runs, both earned. Overall, he worked 3.2 innings, and allowed four runs on four hits and a walk. He also struck out three. He's now worked 47.1 innings in Columbus, and the crazy stat is that of his 27 runs allowed, a whopping nine of them have been unearned.
Playoff Update
Let's take a quick look at the rest of the IL standings. In the IL North, Pawtucket (Red Sox) is at 77-59, and is clinging to a 2.0 game lead over Lehigh Valley (Phillies) at 76-62. In the South, it's still Durham (Rays) leading the way at 77-58, and Gwinnett (Braves) have closed back to 2.5 games behind at 75-61. Lehigh Valley and Gwinnett are currently deadlocked for the Wild Card, though Lehigh Valley has one more win AND one more loss.
If the season ended today…
Round 1
09/07 Columbus @ Durham
09/08 Columbus @ Durham
09/09 Durham @ Columbus
09/10 Durham @ Columbus*
09/11 Durham @ Columbus*
If Columbus then advanced…
09/13 Pawtucket/WC winner @ Columbus
09/14 Pawtucket/WC winner @ Columbus
09/15 Columbus @ Pawtucket/WC winner
09/16 Columbus @ Pawtucket/WC winner*
09/17 Columbus @ Pawtucket/WC winner*
*if necessary
And Finally…
…three members of the Clippers have been named to the IL Post-Season All Star Team. Two players–infielders Jason Kipnis and Luis Valbuena–join manager Mike Sarbaugh on the team. From the press release:
Sarbaugh piloted the Clippers to the 2010 Governors Cup and the National Championship in his first season at the Columbus helm. He was named the Baseball America 2010 Minor League Manager of the Year. This season the Clippers were the first team to clinch a playoff berth as the team goes into tonight's game with an 85-53 record. This is Sarbaugh's eighth season managing in the Cleveland Indians farm system. He has won championships in 2004, 2006 2009 and 2010.
Kipnis started the season as the Clippers second baseman and was called up by the Indians on July 22. In 92 games with Columbus, Kipnis hit .280 with sixteen doubles, nine triples, and twelve home runs with 55 RBIs. The 24-year-old left-handed hitter still leads the International League in triples despite having spent the last six weeks with the Indians.
A versatile athlete, Valbuena has started 66 games at shortstop, fourteen games at second base, eleven games in left field and seven games at third base for the Clippers this season. The 25-year-old is hitting .304 with 21 doubles, six home runs and a team high 73 RBIs in 107 games with Columbus this season. The left handed hitter also has a team high 19 game hitting streak (5/22-6/9) and two walk-off home runs this season. Valbuena has split the last three seasons between Cleveland and Columbus and has been called up by the Indians three times this season.

I avoid our local MUPs like the plague.... as bad as our streets and motorists are, they are far less chaotic and have a greater sense of order and predictability.
Have NO IDEA what that sudden yell or bell means
Only hardened bike riders know what- that shout means-and if you scream passing left- they might just hear left-and MOVE LEFT.
Simpler solution- never pass any pedestrians-especially oldsters or kids or dog on or off leash at 20 mph!!
Slow waaaaaay down to 5-6 mph-under 10 FPS- and swing as wide as possible
Bike riders-riding at speed-want a workout-having to accelerate back up-improves the workout
So SLOW down to pass-waaaay down!
Bike riders blowing past at speed-in a long line
and oldsters-VOTE- and contact their representatives-complain etc
Yelling "commands warnings" just startles folks.
OP doesn't seem to have a seasoned appreciation for the nuances of what he's advising, from the perspective of safety. For example, alerting from two seconds back at 20 mph will have no benefit whatsoever in some of the situations he describes. You must reduce speed and then alert. In other specific situations, as you know, you're better off without warning. They don't like it, but it's safer.
I "ding" at just about everyone, with enough time that many of them acknowledge before I pass. Those who don't acknowledge or show an awareness present a decision point for several options. That pertains regardless of how far back you attempt to alert them.
why does one need to ring a bell to pass do you slam your horn everytime you overtake on the highway too? im confused
I have a bulb horn on one bike, and a vintage E.A. Labs manual Klaxon on the other, nobody ignores them and they get through to the ear bud crowd, they even work for motorists. I think horns are great, but I get the impression that bells and even more so horns are offensive to the delicate sensibilities of many image conscience cyclists and weight weenies.
Maybe speed happy cyclists should find another route, or perish the thought, slow down to a pace consistent with cycling amongst the many legitimate users of a MUP.
Sidenote: I can recall a MUP encounter I had early on in adult cycling, I came up behind a jazzy scooter chair user or some such other mobility device user, the path was maybe 4' wide and I'd been reading all the horror stories of MUP users, which seemed to point towards the mobility scooter crowd as being rather dangerous if you snuck up on them. Well anyways, this guy was actually attentive! He even had rear view mirrors on the sides of his handlebars.. even before he could see me, he pulled to the right, and waved me through, I ended up hopping off my bike and chatting the gentlemen up as it turns out he also finds most mobility scooter users to be jerks! He's so attentive because often others will come zipping up on him and bump him nearly off the trail! Just goes to show.. there's good people and asshats everywhere.

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
Note that pedestrians and joggers listening to music on a MUP is "improper" or a "hazard" only in the eyes of obnoxious speed obsessed cyclists who believe they alone are entitled to enjoy the use of a MUP.
One time on a MUT I slowed for, and didn't pass a jogger because we were approaching an intersection, just as I stopped and put my foot down, she flipped a U-turn around a bollard while looking at some sort of device and ran head on into me. Joggers with ear buds are a real hazard, they're oblivious to the world around them, and do U-turns without warning.
From that and other experiences I've learned its best to alert folks I'm going to pass regardless of speed. Bicycles are silent and they may step into your path even if you have slowed all the way down.
Lots of people say thank you or show appreciation for the warning, and it is a rule here in Washington, so its not simply self serving, its part of being a responsible, courteous trail user...........even for slowpokes like me.
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
The one and only reason I "ding" at pedestrians is a courtesy so that they don't inadvertently jump into my path. What they actually do is up to them, and I deal with it as necessary.
Obnoxious - some probably think so but many people thank me as I pass so I think that opinion is of the fringe.
My wife and I walk on several MUPs, some of them fairly narrow as well. How we handle it, we walk FACING "traffic" just as if we were walking on a state highway with no sidewalks. This way, faster trail users overtaking us don't have to do anything, say anything, or move anywhere. They just keep doing what they are doing. Then should we SEE other trail users closing in on us from the front side we simply look over our shoulder to see if anyone is coming up from behind us. If the coast is clear, we step to the right side of the trail and let the cyclists approaching from up front keep their line and lane. As soon as they pass we move back to the left side facing traffic. If there are cyclists coming up in front and behind us we just step off the trail momentarily and let everyone get past, then resume our peaceful walk. We are not counting on hearing anything. We could have music blowing our eardrums out. We LOOK OUT for other trail users, which is ridiculously easy to do on foot. An MUP is the same as any other roadway shared by foot traffic and wheeled traffic as far as I am concerned.
And THIS^^ is how I expect all pedestrians to act on MUPs. Wish in one hand, spit in the other, and see which one fills up first.
Some here might find this video of mine fun regarding how most people in my town use MUPs.

If everyone at least TRIES to be courteous there would be very few problems in MUPs. Trouble is, almost everyone on those things are entitled j@ck@$$3$ with their heads in the clouds or unwilling to slow down for a moment.

Nearly had two accidents in Central Park NY today. Nearly toasted myself when some idiot pulls his bike @ a 90 degree angle into my line. The ____t nearly takes out another roadie who is also riding my track. If at all possible I need to get back to the North Shore where I can have the road to myself.
